Episode 126 of Tablesetters breaks down a stretch of offseason moves that didn't rely on shock value, but clearly revealed how several teams are positioning themselves for 2026. We open with Tatsuya Imai nearing the end of his MLB posting window with a January 2 deadline and, by his own admission, far less clarity than expected. Despite an elite résumé in Japan and interest from multiple clubs, firm offers have yet to materialize. We examine why interest hasn't translated into action, which teams remain involved, the importance of family and contract structure in his decision, and what it means if Imai ultimately returns to Seibu. From there, we move to Baltimore, where the Orioles re-sign Zach Eflin on a one-year deal. We break down what Eflin realistically provides coming off an injury-filled season, where he fits alongside Kyle Bradish, Trevor Rogers, and Shane Baz, and why this move stabilizes the rotation without removing the Orioles from the frontline starter market. The Athletics make their clearest long-term statement by locking up Tyler Soderstrom. We dig into how his extension reshapes the lineup, why his move to left field mattered after Nick Kurtz's arrival, and how a core featuring Soderstrom, Brent Rooker, Lawrence Butler, Shea Langeliers, Jacob Wilson, and Jeff McNeil gives the A's one of the deeper young offenses in the league as they build toward Las Vegas. Cincinnati's pivot away from the Luis Robert trade market brings the bullpen into focus. We break down the additions of JJ Bleday and Dane Myers, the pitching depth lost along the way, and why the Reds' roster decisions align with Nick Krall's stated priority of fixing a relief group that quietly became one of the team's biggest concerns. We close the Meat of the Order in Pittsburgh, where the Pirates sign Ryan O'Hearn to the largest free-agent position-player deal in franchise history. We discuss why O'Hearn fits PNC Park, how he complements Spencer Horwitz and Brandon Lowe, and why Pittsburgh's recent aggression has created legitimate momentum — including growing buzz around Kazuma Okamoto. Steve and Devin connect the dots across international markets, roster math, and team-building philosophy, focusing less on headlines and more on what these moves tell us about how clubs believe games will be won next season. ⚾️ Deadlines approaching, cores taking shape, and priorities becoming clear.
When the stakes are high and expectations are muddy, even the most competent humans can slip into self‑protection mode at work. Deadlines, performance reviews, politics, and power dynamics can echo earlier experiences of exclusion or danger, so our nervous systems do what they were wired to do: defend. In this conversation, our gals break down how that shows up on teams—and what to do about it. The six threat responses at work: •Fight: The combative colleague who argues every point, dominates meetings, or treats every disagreement like a win‑lose battle. •Flight: The smart person who goes quiet, avoids conflict, or turns down opportunities because speaking up feels risky. •Freeze: The “I don't know” response, analysis paralysis, and stalled decisions that show up when people are terrified of being judged or getting it wrong. •Please/appease: The chronic yes‑sayer who overworks, agrees with everything the boss says, and buries their own dissent to stay liked. This can look like commitment and “great attitude,” but often signals people who do not feel safe being real. •Attach/cry for help: The “needy” teammate who constantly checks in, escalates, or dramatizes issues to get attention and reassurance. •Collapse/submit: The checked‑out, burned‑out, “why bother” energy—folks who stay on payroll but mentally and emotionally leave the building. The good news is that psychological safety can change everything! Listeners will recall that psychological safety is the shared belief that it's safe to take interpersonal risks like asking questions, making mistakes, or disagreeing with the boss. When safety is low, threat responses spike; when safety is high, people can access their best thinking, creativity, and courage instead of just their defenses. Use this episode to reflect on your own go‑to response (fight, flight, freeze, fawn, attach, or collapse) at work—and how you, yes you, can help make your workplace safer, more honest, and a hell of a lot more joyful.
Unser Jahresrückblick 2025 – Q&A für Annie: Meine ehrlichsten Learnings, Meilensteine & Wünsche für 2026 Willkommen zu einer ganz besonderen Q&A-Folge und damit zum 2. Teil unserer Coaching-Reise, damit du dein Jahr reflektierst und die richtigen Ziele für 2026 setzt! Annie hat mir auf Instagram die Frage gestellt: „Hi Laura, mich interessiert, wie dein persönlicher Jahresrückblick 2025 war – was waren besondere Meilensteine, Herausforderungen und was nimmst du dir für 2026 vor?“ Annie, danke für diese schöne Frage – sie hat mich selbst nochmal tief in mein Jahr eintauchen lassen. Hiermit lade ich dich ganz herzlich ein, mit mir gemeinsam deinen persönlichen Jahresrückblick 2025 mit mir zu machen und die Fragen direkt in den Kommentaren zu beantworten. Ich freue mich darauf und lese jeden einzelnen. Was waren Meilensteine im Jahresrückblick 2025? Mein Jahresrückblick 2025 ist geprägt von drei großen Meilensteinen, die mein berufliches wie persönliches Leben verändert haben.#1: Mein Buchprojekt mit einem Verlag. Ein großer Traum – und auch ein wilder Ritt. Perfektionismus, Deadlines, Zweifel… all inclusive. Doch das Ergebnis hat mich tiefer wachsen lassen, als ich erwartet hätte und ich kann es kaum erwarten, dir im Frühjahr nächsten Jahres das Buch zu zeigen. #1: Ich habe zum ersten Mal eine Assistentin eingestellt. Am Anfang war das Loslassen eine echte Herausforderung (Hallo, Kontrollinstinkt!). Aber sobald ich mich getraut habe, wurde daraus eine der schönsten Kooperationen dieses Jahres und das gibt mir viel mehr Fokus auf Coachings, Podcastfolgen & Blogartikel zu schreiben. #3: die Kombi aus Arbeiten & Reisen auf Bali. Sonne, Wellen, Coaching-Sessions – und das Gefühl, Freiheit wirklich zu leben, was ich mir seit Beginn meiner Selbstständigkeit gewünscht hatte. Es hat Spaß gemacht, zu reisen, zu surfen und 3-4 Stunden ganz fokussiert am Tag zu arbeiten. Damit ich ich sogar mehr erreicht, als wenn ich „nur“ in meinem Büro saß. Was waren deine Herausforderungen 2025? Spannenderweise habe ich gemerkt: Meine Herausforderungen hatten fast alle mit den Meilensteinen zu tun. Denn natürlich hatten diese Highlights auch ihre Herausforderungen: Blockierender Perfektionismus beim Schreiben. Obwohl ich in so vielen Situationen mit meinem inneren Perfektionsdruck umgehen kann, hat er mich beim Buchschreiben nochmal so richtig erwischt. Dafür konnte ich mit diesem Druck arbeiten, ihn lösen und mit viel mehr Vertrauen da rausgehen. Unsicherheiten beim Delegieren, welche Aufgaben konnte ich an meine Assistentin abgeben? Das fiel mir am Anfang sehr schwer und da hab ich meine Klienten so viel besser verstanden, denn Delegieren von Aufgaben ist als Führungskraft genauso schwierig. Genau diese Momente haben mich stärker – und die Meilensteine erst möglich gemacht. Was wünschst du dir für 2026? Das Wichtigste, was ich mir wünsche ist Frieden, sowohl innerlich als auch in der Welt (der Wunsch danach wächst übrigens seit einigen Jahren immens). Für mich persönlich wünsche ich mir 2026 vor allem eines: mehr Balance, mehr klare Pausen und mehr Fokus. Weniger Druck, mehr Tiefe. Weniger Müssen, mehr Freude beim Umsetzen. Wie sieht es mir dir aus? Teile deine Gedanken & deinen Jahresrückblick 2025, ich freue mich von dir zu lesen. Alles Liebe Laura P.S. Im nächsten Blogartikel bauen wir darauf auf: Wir entwerfen deine persönliche Zielvision für 2026 – Mit glasklaren und konkreten Schritten, die du umsetzen kannst, damit du 2026 die Ziele erreichst, die du dir wünschst.

Nachhaltige Führung - Der Leadership Podcast mit Niels Brabandt / NB Networks
Das Jahresendgeschäft ist mehr als Zahlen, Deadlines und letzte Abschlüsse. Es ist ein Moment der Reflexion, der Wertschätzung – und der Führung. In dieser besonderen Jahresendfolge bedankt sich Niels Brabandt, Leadership-Experte, Trainer, Speaker und Host des Leadership Podcasts, bei allen Hörerinnen und Hörern für ein intensives, erfolgreiches und gemeinsames Jahr. Mit einem bewusst humorvollen, aber zugleich reflektierten Ansatz wirft diese Episode einen Blick auf das, was Führung gerade zum Jahresende ausmacht. Diese Podcast-Folge thematisiert unter anderem: Warum das Jahresendgeschäft ein zentraler Führungsmoment ist Wie Führungskräfte Erfolge – auch kleine – bewusst anerkennen sollten Weshalb Reflexion wichtiger ist als blinder Aktionismus Die Bedeutung von Dankbarkeit und Wertschätzung in der Führung Warum Führung nicht mit dem Kalender endet Darüber hinaus würdigt Niels Brabandt all jene Menschen, die gerade in der Jahresendzeit Verantwortung übernehmen und arbeiten – von Rettungskräften über Mitarbeitende im Einzelhandel bis hin zur Gastronomie. Diese Episode ist eine Einladung, innezuhalten, das Erreichte zu feiern und mit Klarheit, Ruhe und Haltung in das kommende Jahr zu gehen. Führung bedeutet nicht nur Vorausdenken – sondern auch Zurückblicken.
The week before Christmas has a way of exposing how the year really went. Deadlines either slow down or pile up, calendars get messy, and the pressure to "wrap everything up" shows up at the same time you're trying to enjoy the season. In this Pre-Christmas episode of Building Better Developers, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche keep it practical: looking back on the year, calling out what worked (and what didn't), and sharing why a year-end reset for developers is the best way to prepare for a better new year. Why a Year-End Reset for Developers Matters A year-end reset for developers isn't just taking a few days off. It's stepping back long enough to see the patterns you've been living in: where you made progress, where you got stuck, and where you've been running on fumes. This episode is about doing that reflection without guilt—and using it to set yourself up for momentum, rather than burnout. A year-end reset for developers is how you stop repeating the same year with a new calendar. The Good, the Bad, and the Real: Looking Back on the Year Rob kicks things off with a simple reflection: one good thing and one bad thing from the year. The good news is that the business made it through another year. That matters more than people like to admit. Survival means you kept moving, you adapted, and you didn't shut the doors. He also highlights a significant win: spending more time working on the business, rather than just being inside it. That includes improving systems, making changes, and investing in the foundation that supports growth. The bad is honest too: the company didn't grow as much as he wanted. Some goals didn't land. Still, even that can be useful—because it creates space to strengthen the core instead of rushing to scale. A year-end reset for developers starts with one question—what did you build that will help you next year? Micro Goals: How a Year-End Reset for Developers Turns Into Progress One of the biggest themes in this episode is that progress doesn't require dramatic change. Rob leans into incremental improvement—the small steps that keep forward motion alive when life gets busy. He talks about regularly touching key areas of the business: rebuilding and redesigning parts of the brand, creating internal tools, and moving toward more custom systems to reduce dependency on licenses and patchwork solutions. It's a steady approach: a little time each week, consistently, until the results show up. He also points out that networking and marketing may not be fun for everyone, but doing them consistently builds relationships—and those relationships often become valuable in ways you can't predict. Micro goals are the engine of a year-end reset for developers—small steps, repeated, create big change. When You're Split Across Stacks, the Reset Becomes Essential Michael talks about something many devs feel: context switching is expensive. This year, he has had two major projects running in two different technology worlds—Django/Python/Apache on one side and Java/Spring/AWS/Redis on the other. Even when you enjoy the work, the mental shift between stacks adds friction. That's why a year-end reset for developers needs to include something most of us skip: rest. Not "watch a screen while thinking about work" rest—real rest. Rest Is Not a Suggestion: The Core of a Year-End Reset for Developers Michael shares what he's been trying to implement more seriously: turning off distractions, stepping away from screens, and scheduling real breaks. Michael took a couple of days off over Thanksgiving and felt a clear difference. Because the truth is, there's a point where "powering through" stops working. You can still finish tasks, but it takes ten times the effort. Your mind gets foggy. Your focus disappears. Then you start mistaking exhaustion for a productivity problem. So the recommendation is simple: schedule rest like it's a requirement. Take a walk. Read a book. Get away from devices. Let your eyes rest. Get out into your community. Look at holiday events, concerts, or just go see Christmas lights. The goal is to reconnect with life outside your backlog. The fastest way to improve your output is often a year-end reset for developers—rest first, then refocus. Boundaries Make You Better: Deadlines, Routines, and Quitting Time Rob adds an important point: structure helps. Having a "quit time" creates a boundary that forces smarter choices. He's found that shrinking the to-do list and accepting "it'll be there tomorrow" can actually increase productivity. We've preached this for years, and it still holds: once you push past a certain number of hours each week, you're not producing more—you're just working longer. A year-end reset for developers includes rebuilding boundaries that protect your focus. He also shares something worth repeating: everyone needs a way to disconnect. Exercise, cooking, a hobby, a walk—whatever it is, find it. If you don't have it, go discover it. Closing Thoughts: Enjoy the Season and Start Fresh This episode wraps with a simple holiday message: enjoy the time you have. Spend it with family and friends. Take a break. Indulge a little. Get out of the house. Recharge. Then when the new year hits, you'll be ready to set goals that actually stick—because you'll be thinking clearly and moving on purpose. A year-end reset for developers isn't a luxury. It's how you finish the year with gratitude—and start the next one with momentum.

Solo Travel Adventures: Safe Travel for Women, Preparing for a Trip, Overcoming Fear, Travel Tips
Deadlines are comforting until you realize they're imaginary. After a week of health scares in our circle, we talk candidly about why travel plans so often stall—and how to turn intention into action before time makes the choice for you. If you've been waiting for the perfect companion, perfect price, or perfect timing, this conversation hands you permission and a plan to go anyway.We start by naming the big dream—the destination that keeps tugging at you—and reframing it as a Masogi-style challenge: a bold, defining trip that stretches your limits and resets your sense of what's possible. From there, we break the process into practical tracks: money, time, knowledge, and logistics.Then we get tactical. We share how to build a mock itinerary in Wanderlog so ideas become maps, not just wishes. We outline a saving plan you can stick to, and the exact tools we use to catch deals—Google Flights, Skyscanner, Booking, and Going—plus how to set fare alerts that quietly do the work while you live your life. You'll learn to pick dates, star neighborhoods, and make quick decisions when prices dip, all while staying out of debt and in control.By the end, you'll have a clear first step, a destination to claim, and the confidence to travel solo if that's what gets you moving. Put your goal on the wall, start the alerts, and take one small action today. If this sparked your next trip, subscribe, share the show with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review to help more travelers find us.

Christmas used to mean something deeper. Somewhere between the shopping lists, the travel plans, and the pressure to make everything perfect, we've lost sight of what makes this season matter. But what if this year was different? What if you could rediscover the faith that's been buried under doubt, the hope that's faded with time, the love that's harder to see in a divided world, and the kind of change only Jesus can bring? Rediscover Christmas. Not just the story, but the Savior who still changes everything. December is basically the Olympics of multitasking. Deadlines, concerts, gift lists, wrapping paper… and somehow we're still trying to remember what Christmas is actually about. This weekend at Mount Pleasant, we're Rediscovering Hope—the kind of hope that doesn't fade when life gets messy, and doesn't depend on everything going according to plan. (Because… when does it?)

Deadlines have a way of forcing clarity, and the final weeks of the year might be the most valuable money window you get. We sit down with Billy Joiner, CFO at Centric, to map out a practical, no-fluff plan for locking in free money, avoiding costly penalties, and starting January on steady ground. From retirement matches to healthcare accounts and charitable strategies, we focus on the moves that deliver the highest return for the least effort.We walk through the top three actions you can take in under 30 minutes: make sure you capture your full 401k match, update beneficiaries across every account, and review HSA or FSA contributions before deadlines hit. Billy breaks down HSA versus FSA in plain English, including rollover rules, eligible expenses, and how to avoid use-it-or-lose-it surprises. We also dig into charitable giving timing, how a donor-advised fund can bunch deductions for tax impact, and when donating appreciated assets makes sense. If open enrollment feels like a maze, we guide you to compare total cost of care, revisit network changes, and consider disability coverage that protects your income.Retirees and their families will find a clear reminder on required minimum distributions—what's due by December 31, the first-year exception, and how to get reliable help fast. We close with everyday money habits that actually move the needle, from packing lunch to cutting drink costs when eating out, plus a call to bring the whole family into the budget conversation so kids learn how money works. Link your accounts in your banking app, track progress in real time, and nudge your contributions now rather than “someday.”Ready to take action?

In this episode of The Consumer Finance Podcast, host Chris Willis is joined by Troutman Pepper Locke Partner Lori Sommerfield and Charles River Associates VP and Practice Leader of Financial Economics Marsha Courchane to discuss the current administration's "debanking" initiative established through Executive Order 14331.

Here's something I've learned the hard way: this is how nice people get taken advantage of.I'm a management professor. I study innovation and failure. But this pattern shows up everywhere. Academia. Hospitals. Small businesses. Big corporations.If you put a grumpy, irritable, forceful person next to a kind, laid-back, empathetic person, most people will work harder for the grumpy one. Not because they're better. Because pressure feels decisive. It creates urgency. People respond to it.The nice person feels safe. Comfortable. Human. And that's exactly the problem.Deadlines slip. Effort shifts elsewhere. And eventually, the nice person gets avoided. Not because they did anything wrong, but because guilt creeps in. And people don't like being reminded of where they fell short.If you're that nice person, you will miss out unless you build boundaries.Not anger. Not becoming grumpy. That kills your soul.Boundaries.You say: this is what I give. This is what I don't. And the world can adjust.I choose to be kind, gentle, generous, and respectful. But I protect myself. If someone doesn't respond in kind, I walk away.The goal isn't power. Or status. Or money.It's a peaceful life. With a big heart. And self-respect.Take care.

On this extended edition of Deals & Deadlines, Matt Chernoff and sports agent/lawyer Hadley Engelhardt connect the biggest sports business stories across college football, baseball, and the NFL — all through the lens of money, leverage, media rights, and power. The show opens with a deep dive into the College Football Playoff business model, including the $4 million payout per team and how conferences like the SEC and Big Ten are stacking massive revenue advantages. The conversation expands into playoff expansion, Notre Dame’s exclusion, Group of Five access, TV windows competing with the NFL, and whether the current system actually delivers the best teams — or just the most profitable ones. From there, Matt and Hadley examine the future of bowl games, opt-outs, ESPN’s potential revenue losses, legal exposure, and why the postseason exhibition model may be nearing its breaking point. The discussion then turns to a landmark moment in college athletics: private equity officially entering the space, highlighted by Utah’s reported equity partnership that could reach $500 million. What does shared ownership mean for control, branding, NIL, Olympic sports, and the long-term soul of college athletics? On the baseball side, the show covers MLB Winter Meetings, where Scott Boras has become a full-scale celebrity power broker, securing over $1.2 billion in contracts while reshaping how agents create leverage. The episode also explores how a looming MLB CBA expiration is shortening contracts and pushing teams toward less risk, plus ESPN’s shift away from Sunday Night Baseball toward a fractured, streaming-first model. Finally, the show wraps with the NFL and global sports media: – Philip Rivers potentially returning at age 44 and what that conversation looks like from an agent’s perspective – The sudden drop in Taylor Swift’s NFL TV exposure and whether it’s a branding reset – And World Cup format changes, hydration breaks, and why “player safety” may really mean more ad inventory Smart, candid, and brutally honest — this is Deals & Deadlines at its most comprehensive. #DealsAndDeadlines #SportsBusiness #CollegeFootballPlayoff #CFPExpansion #MediaRights #BusinessOfSports #PrivateEquity #NIL #CollegeAthletics #MLBWinterMeetings #ScottBoras #MLBContracts #NFLBusiness #PhilipRivers #TaylorSwift #SportsMedia #StreamingSports #WorldCup2026 #FIFA #SportsLaw #ESPN #TVRatings #FootballBusiness #BaseballBusiness #sportseconomicsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It is sometimes difficult for a Christian to wait upon the Lord's timing. Deadlines approach, and God stands still. The window for a final decision is closing, and God exercises His right to remain silent. Danger is moving in, and it seems that the Father is busy with someone else helping out somewhere else. We have all had these crisis-moments of God making us wait when we are in no mood to do so. In the end, we are humbled and learn that you cannot hurry a King. This episode of Truth Shots unpacks a moment in Jesus' life when his family was pressuring Him to act. His response empowers us to understand more about what it means to discern the timing of the Father and to crucify our panic instinct and internal impatience.

This podcast series explores a game-changing understanding of the human mind that operates “Before Psychology” — the secret source that exponentially increases peace, performance, and potential for any individual or organisation. Trying to manage the mind is like trying to get dry in the shower without turning the water off. What if the biggest shifts in life don't come from trying to improve your mindset, but from understanding something far more fundamental about how the mind actually works? This episode it's taken from a recording where Piers was on the Deadlines and Details podcast which is hosted by Matt Barrington Packer, who came on the Quality of Mind Open Programme in March 2025 Matt shares how Quality of Mind changed his life, after years of trying to stay calm, stay focused, or stay in control, he finally saw something upstream of all of that: a deeper layer of mind that changes everything from the inside out. No techniques, no hacks, no effort — just a shift in understanding that made the world look and feel different. Together, they explore what sits behind this kind of real-world change, how it becomes practical without being prescriptive, and why so many people sense this truth long before they have language for it. This episode explores: The “aperture of mind” and why the same situation can feel totally different from one moment to the next Flow, ease and clarity as natural by-products of a less self-identified mind Why the mind's “unreliable narrator” creates so much unnecessary pressure The role of sensation, story and selfing in shaping our experience Why mindset tools and techniques only ever offer partial relief How insight — not effort — leads to real and sustainable transformation What this understanding offers leaders, teams and anyone wanting a more easeful way of being Why this episode matters: This is not a story about willpower or mental strategies. It's a simple, grounded exploration of what changes in everyday life when someone begins to understand the mind before psychology — and why that understanding is so relevant for today's world of constant change, ambiguity, and cognitive load.

On this episode of Deals and Deadlines, Matt Chernoff and super agent Hadley Engelhardt break down how Jimmy Sexton pulled it off, what LSU actually bought, and why this contract is unlike almost anything we’ve seen in college football. We also dive into: Why Lane’s buyout tops Brian Kelly’s and what it says about LSU’s strategy How the state of Louisiana structures coaching contracts at public universities Why LSU is paying Lane Kiffin bonuses based on Ole Miss’ playoff run The $140M wave of SEC buyouts and the “Kirby Smart effect” on the coaching carousel Penn State’s messy search: agents, leverage, and how they ended up behind everyone The monster NIL/QB flip: Jared Curtis from Georgia to Vanderbilt Whether TV networks and media partners are “corrupt” or just doing smart business Why ESPN is at Georgia–Alabama instead of Big Ten title sites — and why that’s just reality NBC “leasing” the Big Ten title game & what a $70M rights fee really buys you Michael Jordan’s legendary “Love of the Game” clause and why no one will ever get it again Christian Ponder’s new mission to help athletes transition after their playing days Tiger Woods’ push to shorten and reshape the PGA Tour schedule post–Super Bowl

Wenn die Digitalisierung fehlschlägt: The London Ambulance System DisasterWas passiert, wenn Politik alles automatisieren will, ein starres Pflichtenheft ohne Tests verabschiedet und eine kleine Agentur in Rekordzeit ein hochkritisches System auf Visual Basic liefern soll? 1992 ging das Notrufsystem des London Ambulance Service mit einem Big Bang Rollout live. Ohne vollwertige Schulung, ohne belastbare Lasttests und ohne echten Backup-Plan. Das Ergebnis: Fehldispatches, endlose Wartezeiten, Ausnahmezustand in der Leitstelle und ein technischer Kollaps durch ein simples Memory Leak.In dieser Episode sprechen wir über den gesamten Projektverlauf vom London Ambulance System Disaster: Von der Zettelwirtschaft mit Förderband über ein überambitioniertes Automatisierungsvorhaben, NIH-Syndrom in der Ausschreibung, unrealistische Deadlines und Budgets, fehlendes Projektmanagement sowie Quality Assurance. Wir beleuchten die Live-Inbetriebnahme im Oktober 1992, GPS- und Statusprobleme in den Ambulanzen, die Exception-Flut auf den Monitoren, das ungetestete Failover und die Folgen für Personal, Vertrauen und Öffentlichkeit.Wir ordnen das Desaster für die Tech Community ein und ziehen Parallelen zu heute: AI- und Cloud-Rollouts ohne Fallback, Fix-forward statt Rollback, End-to-End- und Lasttests mit realistischen Szenarien, SRE-Praktiken, soziotechnische Systeme, UX in kritischen Workflows und die ethische Verantwortung von Entwicklerinnen. Außerdem: moderne Beispiele wie die Boeing 737 Max und Pandemie-Apps, die zeigen, wie zeitlos diese Learnings sind.Bonus: Das Kernsystem lief auf Visual Basic unter Windows 3.

Justin's TakeawaysDeadlines create gravity: Surrounding yourself with people you respect and setting clear deadlines are two of the most powerful tools for getting things done—it is the engine of creative work, which turn ambition into action and ensure you finish what you start. Proximity is an accelerant: Kyle's learned, both in the ocean and in his creative career, that the fastest way to improve is to surround yourself with people already doing the thing you're learning. Mentorship and shared goals create a rhythm of steady progress that's hard to find alone.Better questions equal better understanding: We're trained to have answers, but not to ask better questions and that's where understanding truly lives. Whether you're exploring a design challenge or rebuilding a relationship curiosity has the power to turn conversation into insight. Kyle's book about interviewing his parents is a masterclass in curiosity.Show Notes“The power of deadlines and more specifically, the fear of disappointing people I respect has driven my career.” (00:04:55)We start by talking about the writing group where Kyle and I met, guided by New York Times best-selling author Neil Strauss. Together we dig into how essential structure and accountability are for any creative project including the value of mentors, peers, and most of all, deadlines. If you've listened to this podcast before, you've heard me say it: deadlines are magic. They turn vague ambition into finished work.“Find the people that are doing the thing and hang out with them as much as possible.” (00:15:58)Kyle connects his life as a big-wave surfer to his creative process, showing that fear and mastery follow the same pattern. Whether you're paddling into six-story waves or starting a new creative career, the fastest way to grow is to surround yourself with people already doing what you aspire to do. Mentorship, proximity, and shared accountability accelerate progress more than any course or tutorial ever could. “Copywriting is much more like stand-up comedy, where you're trying to take an idea and distill it down to its most essential form that's going to get someone's attention and connect them to this thing that you are selling.” (00:34:49)Kyle compares copywriting to stand-up comedy and it's a perfect analogy. Both rely on timing, clarity, and emotion. Every word has to earn its place. For designers, writers, and storytellers, the lesson is simple: your job isn't to explain, it's to distill. When you can make someone feel something in a single line, you've revealed its essence, making it easier for your audience to understand, and therefore, to buy.“We're taught to have the right answers, but never taught to have the right questions.” (00:51:56)Kyle wrote a book about interviewing his partents. His book grew out of realizing that curiosity—especially toward the people closest to us—is a learned skill. We train for answers, but not for questions, and that leaves entire parts of our relationships unexplored. As Kyle discovered, interviewing is about transforming judgment into curiosity. Asking better questions of our parents, our collaborators, or ourselves is how we rediscover the people we thought we already knew.* Kyle's Upcoming Book: https://geni.us/onelastqbeforeyougo* Kyle's Website: https://www.kylethiermann.com/ This is a public episode.
