In Part 2 of our conversation with Amar Singh Devanda, India's fastest ultrarunner, we go deep into the things that actually decide a 24 hour race. He walks through how he trained his gut from 30 grams of carbs an hour to 80, why he used only 60 in Japan, the four solid food options he now carries, and why curd rice failed him in the cold. He talks about a 210 kilometre peak week, one pair of shoes for the full 24 hours, and how he stays present when the body starts breaking down. He also shares what he would tell anyone attempting a hundred miler.One thing we want to say clearly. At the time of recording, Amar believed his 282 kilometre run was the highest in the world for 2026. We have since learned a Russian athlete has gone further, so Amar stands second for the year. Neither of us knew this when we recorded, and we are not claiming otherwise.Chapters: training with the team, staying awake through the night, music, nutrition and gut training, solid food on race day, protein and daily diet, shoes, why he posts everything he eats, weekly mileage and structure, advice for hundred milers, goals and gratitude.We hope you will enjoy this episode and let us know your thoughts in the comments.If you have any guest suggestions for our podcast, mail us at:findyourultra@gmail.comFollow Find Your Ultra's Social Media Handles:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FindYourUltraInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/find_your_ultra/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/findyourultra/WhatsApp: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vakfwa0DjiOca1x9vI1GFor any other queries EMAIL:findyourultra@gmail.comFollow Amar Singh Devanda's Social Media Handles:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amar_devanda/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Amar-Singh-devanda/100091858592613/

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers walks you through a complete 14-day progressive fasting protocol built specifically to burn visceral fat, the inflammatory fat that wraps around your liver, pancreas, heart, and intestines, applying pressure to those organs and choking off circulation.   You will get the exact day-by-day schedule: a 14/10 fast for days one through three, a 16/8 upgrade for days four through six, an 18/6 window for days seven through thirteen to activate autophagy, and a single 24-hour water fast on day fourteen that triggers a growth hormone surge of up to 2,000 percent in men and 1,300 percent in women.   Dr. Jockers also covers the three eating rules that make or break the protocol, how to supercharge your fast with hydration, coffee, and light movement, the protein and fat first rule for breaking a fast correctly, and his answers to the eight questions he gets asked most often, from sweeteners and dizziness to whether the fat comes right back.

In this weeks episode the Mayor talks with Dave Rose, an agency operator at Bolt and former Liberty Mutual and Travelers leader, about what independent agents can learn from captive carriers, how connected distribution works, and how agencies can start using AI without overhauling everything.

The 90-Day Plan That Changed How I Run My Optometry Practice | E321Highlights from this episode: The 90-Day Plan That Changed How I Run My Optometry Practice (00:54)Closing Thought: Lazy People vs. Winners (25:37)I've always struggled with the temptation to change things too quickly—come up with a new idea, get some resistance, and then move on to the next thing because I feel like I need to be doing something. In this episode, I'm sharing why I've started using 90-day plans to force myself and my team to stay focused, execute, measure what's actually happening, and give our decisions enough time to produce evidence before we pivot. We're talking about accountability, improving every role in the practice—including doctors—and why consistency doesn't mean refusing to change; it means giving your decisions enough time to see whether they're working. If you're constantly changing direction in your practice, this is a reminder that sometimes the best thing a CEO can do is stop messing with things and let the plan play out.

Our playbook to $100,000 a month is free, and it's where the 90-day plan in this podcast comes from: ► The $100K Playbook: https://capitalism.com/100K Dr. Megan Jolley Milne is a pharmacist, and her company Nutranize does $20,000-$27,000 a month almost entirely off one YouTube channel. She's in a tiny space with a skeptical market and she can't run ads because of medical claims, so when she flew into our in-person mastermind I sat down with her and built a 90-day plan to double the business. I didn't give her a single new thing to do. I took things away. And you can run the same subtraction on yours. Resources mentioned in the podcast: ► The $100K Playbook: https://capitalism.com/100K ► Bootcamp waitlist: https://capitalism.com/bootcamp (0:00) A business that should be doing a million, stuck in the low six figures (1:15) Everything runs on one YouTube channel, and she's stuck on what comes next (2:14) What she sells: a supplement for the side effects of prednisone, $104.99 a month (3:03) The numbers: $20,000-$27,000 a month, and what made May different (4:01) What I caught at breakfast: the traffic goes everywhere (4:35) The inventory: Amazon, a sales page, a checklist, a taper chart, a quiz (5:16) Thousands of leads and zero buyers (6:03) The queen bee activity, and why it decides what you work on (7:08) Leakage, and why scattering a little energy waters nothing (9:27) Her magnum opus, and the phone calls it produced (11:01) Make the thing that already converts your only lead magnet (12:04) One promise up front, everything else stacked behind it (14:10) "That feels relieving. I just need to do one thing." (14:33) A separate follow-up series for every lead magnet is exhausting (15:59) The prescription: one opt-in, and commit to it (16:55) The lead magnet you have beats the one that doesn't exist (17:27) Put a discount in the P.S. of every email (19:49) I don't consider content a call to action (20:33) 4 offers at checkout, and the 1 upsell worth adding (23:20) Why she doesn't have to touch ads in a regulated space (24:01) Why 90 days and not 5 years (25:48) The million-dollar move: out of a niche of all niches (26:23) Nutrient depletion is the brand, prednisone is just the first drug (28:05) A new drug is a new person, and a new funnel (29:42) 80% of my job is telling people what not to do (30:49) No permission to launch a 2nd product for 90 days (31:45) Her last worry: what if they never watch the video (33:01) The Facebook group with 5,000 members she forgot she had (34:35) Now the email list and the group promote each other (36:03) "I just got my money's worth" (36:19) What I didn't do: I took things away DISCLAIMER: The information contained on this podcast Channel and the resources available for download/viewing through this podcast Channel are for educational and informational purposes only.

Trump is promising an "economic D-Day" against Iran while trying to lower beef prices by temporarily removing a tariff. So tariffs don't raise prices... except when removing them lowers prices? Nate and Charlie break down Trump's new economic pressure campaign against Iran, the oil-market reaction, and whether decades of sanctions give us any reason to expect a different result this time. Then it's beef. Trump announced a 90-day plan allowing hundreds of thousands of metric tons of ground beef to enter without the out-of-quota tariff, while promising cheaper prices and more room for American cattle producers to grow. The guys dig into the incentives, Thomas Massie's response, and the obvious tariff contradiction. Finally, the national debt has crossed $40 trillion. Did the Bush and Trump tax cuts create the debt problem, or does Washington simply spend every dollar it can get its hands on? Plus: 91% tax rates, government roads, patents, AI data centers, and a viral claim about Gary, Indiana that sends the show completely off the rails.

Title of Podcast: Summer Advantage: Building Confidence and Communication Skills Before September New Podcast Episode: Summer Confidence Boost: Sharpen Your Communication Skills  Welcome to this episode hosted by Susan, where she explores how you can use the summer months as a strategic opportunity to develop your professional and communication skills. Drawing on her experience working with thousands of professionals, Susan unpacks the neuroscience behind behavioral change, the pitfalls of traditional training, and why summer is the ideal time to prepare for the busy season ahead. She also introduces her 5-week program, "Be Seen, Be Heard, Make an Impact," designed to foster authentic confidence and communication through practice and reflection.  

In this episode, we break down how frequently asked questions (FAQs) can do more than just save your staff time. When used strategically, FAQs can help your clinic show up in Google search results, improve your local SEO, and even increase your visibility in AI-powered search tools like ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, and more.We talk about why search behavior is shifting toward full questions instead of keywords, how AI platforms use your website content to generate answers, and why answering real patient questions in plain language can give your clinic a competitive edge.You will also learn where FAQs should live on your website, how to write answers that actually help patients and rank, and how to turn everyday questions into blog posts, videos, and other content that keeps working for you long after the conversation ends.If you want a simple, practical way to improve your website, attract more patients, and stay ahead of where search is heading, this episode is a great place to start.Episode page, blog & show notes: https://propelyourcompany.com/faq-seo/Send in your questions. ❤ We'd love to hear from you!Webinar: The Hidden SEO Mistakes Costing Clinics Patients Right Now (And Easy Fixes You Can Start Making This Week)Save your spot: https://propelyourcompany.com/june/** Can't make it live?

http://www.sherylkline.com/blogThere's a moment when women executives recognize: you're not in the room where strategic decisions are being made, not part of the ‘club'. Maybe you are in the room, but you realize your voice doesn't carry the weight it should. As AI reshapes how business gets done, that moment is becoming more frequent, and stakes are higher.Your wisdom, experience, knowledge, and integrity don't deserve to be heard, it must be heard. Let's make sure you not only have a seat at the table, but have a voice at the table.That's the focus of my upcoming session at the #EmpoweredCXO retreat, an event I'm honored to help shape alongside 6sense and Claire Couch. It takes an enormous amount of coordination to build a retreat like this... the kind of behind-the-scenes work that rarely gets seen but makes everything possible. I'm grateful to be part of it.The session is called Deepening Trust & Building FBI-Level Influence in the Age of AI: A 90-Day Plan to Recruit, Reign, or Reimagine What's Next. It's built around four ideas that I believe will define effective leadership over the next decade.1. Architect your agency.So much of leadership erodes quietly... through deferring to consensus, softening instincts to keep the peace, or letting a title define your confidence instead of your judgment. Reclaiming agency starts with refining emotional intelligence and learning to trust what you already know. Leaders who do this consistently become the people others can't replace, not because of their role, but because of how they think and show up.2. Build trust... the new currency.As AI absorbs more of the transactional work... analysis, drafting, forecasting... the differentiator left for humans is connection. In an AI-saturated world, the leaders and organizations that win will be the ones who can build deep, authentic relationships that no algorithm can replicate. Trust isn't a soft skill anymore. It's the asset.3. Command any room.Influence isn't manipulation... it's precision. Techniques borrowed from FBI-level negotiation and persuasion training aren't about pressure tactics; they're about building instant credibility, lowering defenses, and creating the conditions where the right people are willing to move. This is a learnable skill, not an innate trait, and it's one of the fastest ways to change how you show up in high-stakes conversations.4. Decode what people really want.Every negotiation, pitch, or hard conversation has a surface layer and a real one. Objections are rarely the actual objection. Needs go unspoken more often than they're stated. The leaders who consistently get to "yes" are the ones who've learned to read past the words to the true motivation underneath... and respond to that instead.Put together, these four ideas form a 90-day framework: a practical runway to recruit the right people, reign in a room with confidence, or reimagine what leadership looks like for you next. It's not about becoming someone else. It's about sharpening the instincts and skills you already have, so your voice carries the weight it deserves.I can't wait to share more!

https://youtu.be/RI_6ZvdjVuE Matt Andersen, CEO of Westlake Securities, LLC, is driven by a mission to create value that changes lives by helping business owners follow the 4 Steps to Creating Equity Value, intentionally grow their companies, maximize enterprise value, and achieve successful liquidity events. Through strategic planning, disciplined execution, and a purpose-driven approach, Matt has helped companies achieve significant growth while empowering entrepreneurs to build businesses that create lasting financial and personal impact. We explore Matt Andersen’s Reverse Engineer Your Outcomes Framework — Define Your Financial Goal and Timeframe, Design a First 100-Day Plan, Build an Annual Plan, and Adjust and Reset Quarterly. Matt explains why business owners should reverse-engineer their desired financial outcome before creating a growth strategy, how a focused 100-day plan builds early momentum and accountability, and why quarterly adjustments keep organizations on track toward long-term goals. He also discusses how thought leadership, educational content, internship programs, and AI-powered client experiences have fueled Westlake Securities’ growth while helping entrepreneurs achieve private equity-like results without giving up ownership of their businesses. — 4 Steps to Creating Equity Value with Matt Andersen  Good day. Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint Podcast, and my guest today is Matt Andersen, the CEO of Westlake Securities, LLC, the number one lower middle-market investment bank in Central Texas, focused on advising companies seeking to intentionally grow or obtain liquidity. He’s also the author of Intentional Growth, as you can see behind him on the screen. Matt, welcome to the show.  Hey, Steve. Thanks so much for having me. I’m super excited to be joining you on today’s show.  Yeah. I love the title of the book and the cover. This is exactly what you want to do with companies, right? You intentionally want to grow them, and then you want to grow their value and create great exits, which I’m sure you have a lot to tell us about. Yeah, that’s exactly right. Our business model… Taking a quick step back, I’m CEO of Westlake Securities, as you mentioned, a lower middle-market investment bank. A lot of the companies we work with, we’re really helping them grow. That’s about half our business. The other half of our business is folks who, once they’ve grown and achieved a certain position or value in the organization and have gotten to a certain point in their career, might want to start thinking about liquidity, or maybe an ultimate exit plan for liquidity—not just for their financial tie-up in the business, but also for their time. So that’s the other half of what we do. We help people think through that next step.  Yeah, because you need both, right? If you have a lot of money but no time to enjoy it, that’s not really good. If you have a lot of time but no money, that’s not good either. So you need both.  That’s right. So yeah, the business fits really, really well. For a lot of our folks, we’re with them on very long-term journeys. In some instances, it’s been six, seven, eight, nine, even 10 years for them to grow the organization to a value that’s truly exciting for them, and then help them think about how best to monetize that once the organization has hit a goal based on size and time. Okay. That’s fascinating. So let me take a step back and ask you: what is your personal why, and how are you manifesting it in this business?  Yeah, that’s a great question. I think about it this way. A lot of companies have mission and vision statements. We actually do something a little different. We have a purpose statement. That purpose statement is: We create value that changes lives.Share on X At this point in my career, if you define careers as you would maybe a sporting event, I’m probably in the third quarter of my career.  One of the things that gets me excited every day is a transaction, for instance, that we had about two weeks ago. There were about eight people who had a truly life-changing experience in a positive way. That’s really neat. In addition to those eight people, there was a group of four people who became shareholders for the first time in this organization. It was really neat. Those sorts of conversations are really fun to have. So creating value that changes lives is really important. We tend to think about that holistically too. For our team, we've been fairly blessed with growth.Share on X  Then, if you think about the full cycle back to the community, we typically pick one charitable organization each year, and we try to make an impactful donation to that one charitable organization. So I think, from client to team to community, that holistic vision is what gets me skipping into work every day.  Yeah. I mean, if you can change your clients’ lives and you change your team members’ lives for the better, that’s very powerful. That’s very empowering. Yeah. And then to see that roll through the community is even… Yeah, it’s pretty neat. It’s pretty neat to see.  So that’s the third leg of the stool: the clients, the team, and your community.  That’s right. You’re really embedded in there. My question is, how do you do that? Do you have a framework for changing these lives? Obviously, you wrote a book, so maybe it’s the spine of the book that you might share with us, or maybe another framework. This podcast is all about frameworks.  So what is a three- to five-step process, or maybe three or four ways to look at something, that informs you or your clients? Or it can be anything that helps you streamline things in your business and make things simpler, which our listeners might benefit from and interpret in their own way.  Yeah. I’m a big framework fan, which is part of the reason I was excited to join the podcast, because I think about things that way. Especially if you figure out what works over time, the goal is to replicate that. Just like a manufacturing facility figures out how to make everything from a microchip to a pair of shoes, and they keep doing the same thing repetitively, I think frameworks in business, if they’re given enough flexibility, can be hugely powerful.  I’ve written two books. Completing the Deal is my first book. “Intentional Growth” is my second book. Intentional Growth is really about organizational growth, and the book is full of great frameworks.Share on X But if I were to share the one I believe is the most impactful—and it’s also fairly simple—it would be this: Reverse-engineer your desired outcome upfront.  So often, businesses we come into contact with know they want to grow. They know they want to achieve certain things. But oftentimes, they haven’t done a great job of defining two things: The timeframe they want to do it in, and the level of achievement they want to get to. One of the things we tend to see in business is that people will make a budget, for instance. They’re going to pull in a sales backlog and a CRM report. A customer did X last year, so we’ll just add 4%, and they’ll do Y this year.  We’ll hire a couple of people. That can be a way to budget. But I think the better way to approach budgeting is, once you’ve reverse-engineered the course, to say, “Over the next five years, we’re going to get from here to here.” Then really think about that as a stair-step process, almost like the path behind me. If we need to go from here to here, year over year, how do we actually grab that growth out of the marketplace? How do we make sure that we’re on the right path?  One of the things we spend a lot of time on with companies we're helping grow is this reverse engineering.Share on X It’s a great framework. There’s a lot about it in the book. A couple of really important takeaways, probably the most important one I can share is the timeframe. What we’ve found is that three to seven years is the best timeframe. Anything less than three years starts to feel like there’s not enough time to actually see the seeds you’ve planted bear fruit. Anything longer than seven years…  Well, Steve, seven years is just a long time. It’s hard to predict cycles and things of that nature. By default, absent another driving force, we tend to think in five-year increments. Kind of split the difference. Five years. The other framework we really focus on is picking a financial destination that’s truly impactful. A lot of times, when people think about the stress of business growth, part of the reason it’s stressful instead of exciting is because they’re worried about growing 8% to 10%, or maybe 12%. That’s good growth. It’s nice.  But it’s not exciting. To me, that feels more like a burden than excitement. If you went into your business planning thinking, “Over the next five years, we’re really going to 3X the size of the business, 4X the size of the business, maybe even 5X the size of the business…” Then, in order to achieve that, we need to hit Y growth over the next 12 months.  That really reshapes what might otherwise be a stressful scenario based on anecdotes into something much more exciting and engaging. Those are the two main frameworks: Time and a financial outcome that would truly be exciting. That’s the premise the book starts with, and it’s something we use all the time, every day.  So that’s interesting. If I were to translate it into a three- to five-step framework or process, what’s step number one? Is it defining the financial destination, or is it the timeframe?  So, number one, those two things are probably going to go together. Timeframe and financial outcome. From a framework perspective, first we’re going to set that destination. Then we’re going to move into the other pieces. Step two is likely going to be creating a 100-day plan. Why do we want a 100-day plan?  Because we want to make sure tomorrow is going to be different from today. Again, it’s one of those things where a 30-day plan is too short, and a six-month plan is too long. A 100-day plan is a way to jump-start a growth plan, and we really want to see a few things from it. One is some early wins, because we’re all wired that way. The more we win, the more we want to play the game, right? Yeah. So you do want to have some early wins.  You want to have some visibility. Organizationally, we plan to communicate the goals and objectives of our destination and outcome, what our 100-day plan is, and then accountability. Accountability to outcomes. Those are the three main things we want to see from that 100-day plan, even though there are a lot of details. Step three would be a one-year plan because we really want to say, “Okay, we’ve got this timeframe. We’ve got this destination we want to get to. We’ve got a 100-day plan to jump-start it.  Now we have a one-year check-in.” From that one-year point, in addition to things like KPIs or Rocks—or whatever an organization uses to manage accountability to outcomes—we want to reset the sails every quarter to six months going forward. But the 100-day and one-year plans are really important to making sure we’re off to a good start on our journey to get where we want to be in five years.  Love it. So that’s interesting. It’s more of a bottom-up approach. Some people preach a top-down approach. You do have a top as well because you have a financial destination three to seven years out. That’s fascinating. You also follow the private equity idea of a 100-day plan, so it aligns with that approach too. One of the things I like to talk about with clients is, how can we create private equity without private equity? How can we get private equity results without having to give up a chunk of the pie? So that is fascinating.  Yeah. And that’s a big part of it. Anyone who’s looking for that message is really going to gravitate to this book. What I do tell people is, you don’t have to sell to grow, but you do have to plan. This is a great framework for doing that, based on 27 years of personal experience and 23 years of firm experience. I’ve personally helped 40 companies achieve seven-, eight-, and nine-figure growth in enterprise value, and we’ve closed $5.7 billion in transactions. All of that feeds into this book, which I think people can use to find a better path—and a proven guide—toward growth without having to give up control.  Yeah. I love it. So tell me, Matt, what drives growth in your business at Westlake Securities?  I think there’s a few things that have been helpful to our growth. Number one, we’ve been fortunate to be in markets that are robust. So we do have a bit of a perfect storm going on right now. There’s a lot of capital available. There are a lot of tools available. And we’ve got an aging demographic of business owners. All of those things are creating this perfect storm of either growth or liquidity.  These conversations are happening more now than they ever have in the last 27 years of my career. It’s unbelievable. These conversations went from things people talked about maybe once a year to, for some organizations, getting outreach every week from somebody who wants to talk to them about a growth investment or buying their business. These topics are coming up more and more, and I think in a much more impactful way.  So number one, there are a lot of favorable market dynamics. Number two, we have the history and track record that’s helpful when a business owner is asking, “Can this company really help me grow?” or “Can this company really help me sell?” We’ve got a great track record for that. That track record is built on, number three, our team.  A lot of our people have spent time with Fortune 1000 companies. They’ve worked for major banking organizations, run brands for Fortune 1000 companies, worked in private equity, or worked for other investment banks. So they bring tremendous experience. And then, last, is our process. Part of the reason for creating the two books is to be very transparent about what our processes are and to lead our advisory work by example.Share on X  We want to be transparent in how we think about helping companies either grow or obtain liquidity. I think those four legs of the stool are the reason we’ve been able to grow so much over the last few years.  You say the market is good because of the Silver Tsunami, as some people call it. Yeah. It’s kind of a cliché. And also the abundance of capital. Private equity has a lot of money to spend, as do strategic buyers. So I get that part. I also understand that you have great assets inside the company—your track record, your team, your processes, all of that. Then what happens? Do those people just find you, or do you actually have to intentionally do something to drive the growth?  Well, that’s well said. Just like we preach, we have to practice. Some of the ways we’ve been able to attract companies to our organization are through our digital presence. If you check us out on LinkedIn, we post a lot of great content there. We provide a lot of data. We do a quarterly deep dive by industry on where transactions have been. We share growth tips very openly. We provide downloadable resources.  The books have been helpful. The books have led to speaking opportunities. I speak internationally on the topics of capital raising, growth, and M&A. Lastly, joining awesome podcasts like yours has become one of our 2026 initiatives, and it’s been a lot of fun. It’s been amazing to see the response. Inevitably, somebody emails and says, “Hey, I saw your conversation with Steve. I thought it was pretty cool. Here’s something about my business.  How can you help, or what do you think?” For everyone, we’ve got something. For our ideal client, we obviously have our core services. For folks who are a little smaller, we’ve got a whole suite of workshops that range in cost and time commitment. Then, all the way down to a $17 or $25 book, which we feel is within everyone’s reach.  Part of this—and I’m sure you’re wired the same way—is just a pure passion for helping others find their own form of success. Whether it’s a $17 book, a multimillion-dollar capital raise, or a $300 million sale of a business, everywhere in between, we can provide someone with some element of value if they’re interested in engaging with us in a conversation. So that’s been helpful too.  Yeah, I love it. It’s very smart. You basically have a long-term view and a long funnel. You can connect with people at any stage of where they are and then support them through increasingly intensive ways.  Can I share with you the funniest one that I ever saw coming? Of course. We’ve always been big believers in giving back through university talks and internship programs. That’s been going on for some time, and it really took the next step in 2020 when all the internships were shut down. We were one of the early firms to launch a virtual internship program.  Now we’ve had over 1,000 interns go through our various internship programs, completing them from five different continents. Now those people have graduated. Several of them have been out of school for many years and are building their own careers. It’s been amazing to see that an experience they had when they were 19, 20, or 21 is now paying dividends five to ten years later. That’s one I never saw coming. We always did it as a way to give back. But it's been interesting to see it become a long-term brand-building exercise and a positive way of giving back to the community that has honestly created more opportunities than I ever would have thought.Share on X That’s amazing. So you created all these ambassadors, then, that I think will bring you clients.  You know, that wasn’t probably the intention when we started. But we’ve had people come back and tell us, “Hey, that internship changed the course of my career.” We’ve had parents whose kids got their first job out of school after doing an internship with us say, “Hey, I can’t guarantee you’re going to get the project, but I at least want to offer you the opportunity to participate because I appreciate what you did for my son or daughter during that internship.” So that’s been really cool. Again, it’s this kind of karma, give-back mindset.  Yeah, I love it. That is very valuable. These days, internships are really challenging to come by, so they can be a really valuable building block for young people. So let me switch gears here and ask you another question. What’s one thing that you’re trying to figure out in your business right now?  That’s a great question. We’re laser-focused on a couple of things. I would say one that a lot of businesses are going to share in common is AI and implementing what I’m calling the light side of AI. I feel like there are really three views of AI in the marketplace. One is a group of people who are still asking, “What does AI stand for?” We’ll put them off to the side for a second. Then there’s the light side and the dark side conversation going on.  The dark side is more about automation leading to job elimination. The light side is really about how we elevate the customer experience or the client experience. How do we elevate what our people are doing and delivering every day? That’s really the area we’re focused on. We have a strategy inside our company as it relates to AI, but the simplest way I can describe it is that we're going to be customer-centric—client-centric—in what we do with AI.Share on X  We want to create the best experience for those who engage with us by using better technology to do it. That’s really a major focus for us in 2026. The other focus is making sure that Intentional Growth gets off to a great start. It’s available for pre-order right now. It’s debut week for pre-orders. It hit number one in four categories. It officially launches in October. The book, speaking, workshops—the whole growth initiative—is really important for our firm, but also for the people we come into contact with.  Who wouldn’t want to grow their business and increase its value by $5 million, $10 million, or $50 million over a reasonable period of time? I think most people who decided to go down the entrepreneurial path did so with the hope of creating abundance. The only way to create that abundance for themselves, their customers, their employees, their vendors, and all their key stakeholders is to grow the organization. So AI and Intentional Growth are our two main business challenges and opportunities for the year.  Yeah. That’s great. And hitting number one in four Amazon categories on pre-order, that is actually very rare. So you must be doing something right there. Either you have an amazing PR machine, or the book is just very, very good. Well, I’m hoping it’s the latter—that the book is going to be that good. I do think the first book created a nice foundation. There are thousands of copies in print. It got a lot of great feedback on Amazon. It’s been used by universities, industry groups, and others. So I think there’s a nice nucleus of potential readers for book number two.  I’m really excited because Intentional Growth is going to be much more interactive than the first book. It’s going to include downloadable forms and AI-powered interactive tools at the end of each chapter, so readers can take what they’ve learned in that chapter and immediately translate it into practical tools for their business.  My hope is that it gets into the hands of any business owner or organizational leader—from someone at an early-stage company to someone running part of a large publicly traded company. If they have a real desire to grow and are looking for a better path to do it, my hope is this book ultimately finds its way into their hands. Yeah, definitely. So if people would like to connect with you, obviously they can go to Amazon and buy Intentional Growth by Matt Andersen.  Yeah.  Definitely do that. And where else can they find you?  There are a few places. Book-wise, Amazon first, then all the major retailers—Barnes & Noble, Porchlight, and others. Both books are available now, and Intentional Growth will ship in October. I would encourage people to find us first and foremost on LinkedIn. I do a lot of personal posts there. We also host events. Westlake Securities has a strong presence on LinkedIn as well. Again, we share a lot of events, free content, and free data.  We spend six figures a year purchasing proprietary data and organizing it in a way that’s useful for business owners to understand trends, valuations, what’s happening in the capital markets, the cost of debt, how much equity was invested in private companies last quarter and last year. There’s a lot of great free information available through those two resources. I also do quite a bit of speaking. If you’d like to attend a talk, I speak internationally on capital raising, growth, and M&A.  That’s amazing. So definitely check it out. Check out Matt’s LinkedIn, especially the quarterly market reports. Those are going to be very interesting. I’m sure you’re using your six-figure database to produce some great charts. So check that out. Buy Intentional Growth, and see how it can help your business. I love your framework—the reverse-engineering idea. You really have to know where you want to get to, how much time you have, and then figure out what it takes to get there.  What’s going to be that above-10% exciting growth rate that’s going to 3X or 5X your business? So thank you, Matt, for coming and sharing your wisdom. And if you’re listening out there, make sure you follow us on LinkedIn, subscribe on YouTube and Apple Podcasts, and leave us a review, because every week I bring you an exciting entrepreneur who’s growing their business. So thanks for coming, Matt, and thanks for listening. Thank you, Steve. I appreciate you having me. To everyone listening out there, best of luck until we interact next. Let’s grow.

7 Elegance Maxxing Secrets: 30 Day Plan To Be Chic Like Lily Van Der Woodsen from Gossip Girl In this episode I walk you through the entire 30-day plan for elegant habits you can adopt inspired by THE chic it girl herself, Lily Van Der Woodsen from Gossip girl

Send us Fan MailQ1 2027 cash flow crisis. That is what is waiting for every OB practice that does not have a plan in motion by October. Not because the codes are hard. Because the time ran out to prepare for them. Knowing what is changing and being ready for it are two completely different things. In the OB Global Coding Series finale, Dr. Heather Signorelli walks through the exact ninety-day month-by-month plan to be ready on January 1, 2027 — payer contracts in July, EHR templates and workflows in August, provider training and shadow audits in September, refinement through Q4. Month 1 · July · Payer contracts: Your contracts reference specific CPT codes. When 59400 and 59510 disappear January 1, those contracted rates disappear with them. Identify your top five payers by maternity volume. Reach out to each provider rep with a written timeline question. Model your current revenue per episode before negotiating. Use the ACOG payer advocacy toolkit. Submit written notice of intent to renegotiate before July 31 to get into the Q4 queue. Month 2 · August · EHR + workflows: Systems first, people second. Rebuild prenatal, postpartum (inpatient and outpatient), and labor management templates. The labor management templates are built from scratch since 59080 – 59083 have no legacy. Build the multi-provider attribution protocol, the same-day postpartum hard stop, and the modifier TH automation. Month 3 · September · Provider training + shadow audits: Mandatory training for all clinical staff. Show providers their own notes and the dollar difference between what they wrote and what they could have written. Run shadow audits monthly: twenty prenatal notes, ten labor management, ten postpartum rounding. Track results by provider. Brief the front desk on the patient-facing talking points. September 1 is the ACOG testing date — NOT a payer compliance deadline. Submit test claims to your top three payers and watch what comes back. Q4 · Refinement, not crisis: October: follow up with payers for written fee schedule confirmations. November: CMS finalizes RVUs — update your revenue model with real numbers. December: billing team readiness check. January 1: go live. The practices that did the Q3 work transition smoothly.

Title of Podcast: Unlocking the Power of Ideas: Why the TEDx Format Inspires & Endures New Podcast Episode: Reflecting on the Power of TEDx Talks Welcome to a special episode inspired by recent exciting news Susan Heaton-Wright has been shortlisted for "Best TEDx Speaker of the Year" at the Speaker Awards, an honor that celebrates her impactful TEDx Northwich presentation. As Susan Heaton-Wright shares her journey and insights, this episode unpacks why the TEDx format is so uniquely powerful, inspirational, and influential.  

Every day starts with the same mind. Most people never stop to ask what shape it's in before the day takes it.Marc Champagne is a mental fitness strategist, bestselling author of Personal Socrates, and host of the Behind the Human podcast. He spent over a decade interviewing high performers, longevity leaders, and world-class thinkers on the practices that keep their minds clear under pressure. After building a daily journaling practice during his corporate sales career, he founded Keio, a digital product that brought guided journaling to nearly 90 million people in its first two years. His work today bridges longevity and mental performance, with Fortune 500 companies including Google and LinkedIn.In this episode, Champagne defines mental fitness as anything that trains your mind to work for you instead of against you, and explains why most people running 12 to 14 hour days at high cognitive intensity with zero recovery are experiencing burnout, not stress. He covers the one-minute morning check-in that identifies the fuel source behind stress, the question "what am I pretending not to know" that surfaces what people have been avoiding for years, and why you trust the plan over the mind during downward spirals. Dr. Joy shares her own recovery stack, including infrared sauna, ShiftWave chair, and the day the heat overrode an emotional state she walked in with.For high performers, health-literate adults navigating chronic stress, and anyone who wants to understand what recovery actually looks like before burnout arrives.The mind is the thing that executes everything else.

Join us as Brian Hough (CEO & Founder of Tech Stack Playbook, AWS Hero) gets brutally honest about the state of tech hiring and what skills developers actually need to survive - and thrive - in the AI era. Brian walks through his frontline perspective on why tech layoffs aren't about skills - they're about market economics - and what that means for engineers trying to stay relevant. You'll learn which roles are actually hot right now (ML engineer, AI engineer, cloud architect, full stack dev), why companies want utility players who can build end to end, how to use social media and building in public to get quietly hired, and why the engineers who thrive will be those who can go from vision to deployed system. Brian also covers practical strategies for positioning yourself before the next wave hits, including using roadmaps as a personal curriculum and leveraging AI as a career accelerator rather than a threat.

Catherine Price returns to the podcast to talk about one of the biggest challenges facing parents today: how to help kids build a healthier relationship with screens. Drawing from her new book, The Amazing Generation (co-authored with Jonathan Haidt), this conversation explores how to move from power struggles and fear-based messaging to approaches that build insight, agency, and real buy-in from kids themselves.   Together, we explore:   Why simply telling kids to "get off screens" often backfires. What kids are actually getting from screens (and what they're missing). How to explain to kids that tech companies are designed to capture attention in a way that makes them feel empowered. Why "real world" experiences are critical for development and how screens can crowd them out. Practical ways to support connection and independence without defaulting to smartphones. How to have conversations about screens that don't lead to shutdown or conflict. Simple shifts that can help your child become more aware, reflective, and intentional with technology. Why building a full, engaging life offline naturally reduces screen time.   This conversation is about more than just screen time. It's about helping kids develop the awareness, confidence, and agency to make choices that align with the kind of life they actually want to live, and how we, as parents, can support that process.       LEARN MORE ABOUT MY GUEST:

Title of podcast: SHW Uncertainty In this solo episode of the Superstar Communicator podcast, Susan Heaton-Wright explores the challenges posed by uncertainty in today's geopolitical and business environment. With over 12 years of podcasting experience, she delivers practical insights for leaders on how to communicate clearly, manage anxiety in teams, and maintain focus during turbulent times.   Key Points with Timestamps The Role of Communication in Uncertain Times Susan Heaton-Wright introduces the episode and emphasizes the importance of clear, purposeful communication for leaders, especially in the current "geopolitical nightmare" and fast-changing environment 00:00:01 – 00:01:42.   Managing Uncertainty and Anxiety She notes that leaders and managers must do their best to support others despite high levels of uncertainty—highlighting concerns around issues such as rising oil prices and the impact of AI on jobs 00:01:43 – 00:02:52.   Anxiety Transfer Effect The concept of "anxiety transfer effect" is introduced; uncertainty and anxiety spread quickly within teams through communication—both what is said and how it is expressed. She explains how simple reframing can foster calm and clarity 00:02:34 – 00:03:47.   Overwhelm and the Rule of Three Susan Heaton-Wright points out that in times of information overload, leaders should simplify priorities using the "rule of three" to ensure teams know what matters most 00:03:51 – 00:04:52.   Leadership Echo—Repetition Builds Trust She discusses the importance of consistently repeating key messages across different channels (meetings, emails, conversations), a method she calls the "leadership echo" 00:05:12 – 00:05:57.   Performance and Nonverbal Signals Susan Heaton-Wright emphasizes that how leaders deliver their messages—their tone, pace, and demeanor—impacts team perception and emotional response 00:06:06 – 00:07:05.   Takeaway Question for Leaders She encourages leaders to reflect on the message their teams need most right now and whether it is creating clarity or confusion, calmness or anxiety 00:07:05 – 00:07:28.   Final Advice Susan Heaton-Wright concludes that leaders don't need all the answers, but must communicate with clarity, consistency, and calmness 00:07:28 – 00:08:12.   This episode equips leaders with simple, actionable strategies to manage uncertainty, reduce anxiety, and inspire their teams through effective communication.   Download the transcript   Susan Heaton-Wright is an expert in communication, impact, and leadership influence, with over 12 years of podcasting experience.

Most companies are now tracking whether their teams are using AI tools. But there's a more important question leaders should be asking. Is AI actually helping your business grow? In this episode of Grounding AI, Donna Peterson walks through the critical shift leaders need to make, from monitoring usage to driving results. Because activity alone doesn't move a business forward. Direction does. You'll learn why simply telling your team to “use AI” often leads to confusion, inconsistency, and wasted investment, and what to do instead. Donna introduces a practical 90-day framework that helps teams build confidence, stay aligned, and apply AI in ways that directly support business goals. What You'll Learn: Why tracking AI usage alone creates a false sense of progress The risk of investing in tools without structured guidance How lack of training leads to fragmented, ineffective efforts Why consistency and collaboration matter more than frequency How to align AI usage with real business outcomes The 90-Day AI Adoption Plan Days 1–30: Build Habit and Visibility Short check-ins 3x per week Focus on how AI will be used that week Share early wins and ideas across the team Days 31–60: Strengthen Consistency Weekly team check-ins Address challenges and refine usage Share templates and successful workflows Days 61–90: Scale and Optimize Monthly deep-dive sessions Demonstrate real use cases step-by-step Provide recordings for continued learning Key Takeaway: Usage does not equal results. AI should help your team focus on the right work, not just more work. Action You Can Take Today Set up a simple weekly check-in with your team: Ask how AI is being used Identify one successful use case Share it across the team Start guiding direction, not just tracking activity. Try the 90-day approach with your team and observe what changes.

Most people watch the Olympics and see the result. Chari Hawkins lived two and a half decades of work to get there, and almost didn't make it. I sit down with US Olympian and world-class heptathlete Chari Hawkins for a wide-ranging conversation about what it actually takes to build mental toughness from scratch, compete at the highest level with a broken heart, and figure out who you are when the sport is no longer the whole answer.This is not a highlight reel conversation. Chari is honest about the panic attacks, the identity crises, the years of therapy, the breakdowns under a tent at track meets, and the visualization breakthrough that got her to the 2024 Paris Olympics. She's also sharp, curious, and deeply thoughtful about what sport teaches you about life, not the other way around. If you've ever had to do hard things while scared, this one is for you.What we explore:Why tying your identity to a single role, athlete, title, achievement, sets you up for a crisis the moment it ends.How Chari used a three-word visualization framework to silence the fear before the race that got her to Paris.Why mental toughness is not a personality trait, and what the actual work of building it looks like under pressure.What not winning a World Championship medal gave her that a podium finish never could have.How competition-day nutrition, breathwork, and sleep tools function as a performance system, and what happens when you get them wrong.Chapter:00:00 Intro01:35 Why Competing Can Disconnect You From Yourself10:56 Why She Chose the Heptathlon16:49 How to Learn New Skills Faster Than Everyone Else21:31 Sports Psychology Tools That Actually Work36:28 How to Support Someone After Failure49:25 The “See, Feel, Trust” Performance Technique01:00:10 Parenting, Discipline, and Mental Strength01:12:41 Peak Performance and Age in the Olympics01:24:05 Bouncing Back After a Devastating Moment01:34:46 What Losing Teaches You That Winning Can't01:36:54 What Athletes Eat on Competition Day01:47:08 Balancing Training, Recovery, and Performance01:51:05 A 30-Day Plan to Build Mental Strength02:00:22 Sprint Training Mindset and Workouts02:11:17 Overcoming Injury Fear and Recovery02:17:33 Sleep, Travel, and Mental Recovery Tools02:28:46 Future Goals and Final Lessons About Chari HawkinsChari Hawkins is a US Olympic heptathlete who competed at the 2024 Paris Olympics. One of the most mentally transparent athletes in track and field, she has spent over 20 years competing at the world-class level across seven events, from the 100 hurdles to the 800m, and has become as well known for her openness about the mental side of sport as she has for her performance.

Today, I have the honor of connecting with Dr. Robynne Chutkan, one of the most recognizable gastroenterologists in the United States. She is also the author of Anti-Viral Gut, one of the books I enjoyed reading most in 2022! Knowledge of the microbiome dates back to the 1600s when Anthony van Leeuwenhoek observed bacteria in his dental plaque through a microscope. However, it has taken us several centuries to understand the interdependence and beneficial nature of those bacteria. The terms "microbiome" and "microbiota" are often used interchangeably. They refer to the organisms and genes that live in and on our bodies, predominantly in the GI tract. Those organisms include bacteria, viruses, protozoa, fungi, parasites, and archaea, which, despite their microscopic size, collectively weigh about 4 to 5 pounds.  Today, Dr. Chutkan and I dive deep into the physiology of the microbiome and discuss how that interplays with immunology. We discuss the benefits of hydrochloric acid, the impact of proton pump inhibitors and other medications on gut microbiome health, and the role of dysbiosis and the Estrobolome. We get into how the pharmaceutical industry has influenced both medical practice and the outlook of healthcare providers, and we talk about the impact of sleep, exercise, stress, and alcohol on the gut. Dr. Chutkan also shares top tips from her anti-viral diet book for supporting the gut. (One of her tips is to consume 30 plant types per week for a healthier gut microbiome.)  This show has been one of my favorite podcasts that I have recorded in the last year. I hope you enjoy listening to it! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: What is the microbiome, and why is it important? Why do we need to understand the interrelationship between the oral microbiome, the gut microbiome, and the vaginal microbiome? The importance of stomach acid. How do proton pump inhibitors affect gut health? The three big things that interfere with digestion. How pharmaceutical companies have taken over medical education. The role of statins in women. Importance of the Estrobolome test. Three different types of estrogens in the body. Why exercise is an important contributor to gut health. The net impact of low-quality sleep on immune function. Dr. Chutkan shares her top tips for a healthy gut microbiome.

Think your problem is consistency? A lot of women over 40 believe that if they could just be more disciplined, more motivated, or more consistent… everything would finally click. But what if the problem isn't you? What if the real issue is that your life is full and your bandwidth has changed? Between work, family schedules, travel, stress, sleep changes, and hormones doing their own thing, many women are trying to follow the same health plan they used in their 30s. And that's where things start to break down. In this episode of Fit Girl Magic, we're talking about why so many smart women think they're failing… when in reality they're trying to force the wrong strategy into the wrong season of life. In This Episode I dive into: • Why "just be more consistent" is terrible advice for midlife women • The real reason your old diet or workout plan stopped working • Why willpower and discipline usually aren't the issue • The difference between Push, Pull, and Hold-the-Line seasons in your health • Why forcing fat loss during the wrong season creates friction • How thinking in 90-day plans can help healthy habits finally stick You're not lazy. You're not broken. You're trying to run a high-intensity plan with midlife bandwidth. Once your strategy matches your current season of life, things start to feel a lot less like swimming upstream.
