Why Human Connection Will Define the Future of DesignIn this episode, experiential architect and design entrepreneur Kitae Kim shares how his early love for art evolved into a mission to transform how designers connect with clients. Drawing from his experiences with large-scale public art and architectural installations, Kitae discusses the communication gaps that plague traditional design presentations. He explains how current methods often fail to convey the emotional and functional depth of a design, which can hinder trust, collaboration, and profitability.Kitae introduces Foveate, a platform he co-founded to help designers present their ideas using immersive 3D tools and intuitive storytelling. By leveraging technology like VR and interactive design environments, Foveate enables a more human-centered design process that strengthens the architect-client relationship. He emphasizes that in an increasingly digital world, the future of design will belong to those who can build connection, not just concepts.Kitae also shares advice for small firms looking to stand out, urging them to focus on brand clarity and the emotional impact of their work. As the design industry evolves with AI and immersive tech, he argues that architects must evolve too—by mastering the art of storytelling and redefining the way they sell ideas.

In this surgical education episode, the Cleveland Clinic General Surgery Education Team explores the past, present, and future of resident autonomy in the operating room. With guest colorectal surgeons Dr. Tracy Hull (recently retired) and Dr. David Rosen (early career faculty), we discuss how autonomy was granted in “the good ole days,” how educational culture and institutional pressures shape current practice, and what thoughtful autonomy looks like moving forward. Through candid stories—from emergent cases and missed enterotomies to thumbtacks pulled off the wall to stop bleeding—we get a nuanced look at what surgical independence really means, and how to responsibly develop it. Join hosts Pooja Varman, MD, Judith French, PhD, and Jeremy Lipman, MD, MHPE, for this conversation about what it means to train competent, confident, and independent surgeons. Learning Objectives By the end of this episode, listeners will be able to  1.     Define operative autonomy and its educational value in surgical training 2.     Identify barriers to providing resident autonomy in modern surgical environments 3.     Discuss strategies for tailoring autonomy to the skill level and readiness of the trainee 4.     Describe approaches to communicating resident involvement to patients References 1.     Sehat AJ, Oliver JB, Yu Y, Kunac A, Anjaria DJ.

Conditions such as heart disease, fatty liver disease, high blood pressure, stroke, diabetes, cancer, obesity, Alzheimer's, PCOS, erectile dysfunction and infertility. Unfortunately, most doctors know very little about Insulin Resistance. How to identify it or how to treat it. That's not good. The truth is, EVERYONE should know about Insulin Resistance. - What it is. - How to know if you have it. - Steps you can take to reverse it. On this episode I address what Insulin Resistance is and the blood tests you need to have done to see if you have it.

What happens when leadership isn't about control but about a shared goal? What if the future business world looks more like a team, not a hierarchy? As more companies reconsider the traditional structures, models like worker cooperatives and employee-owned cooperatives are gaining momentum. They offer a way to codify culture, share decision-making, and maintain purpose beyond the founder's occupancy. These models present an agreeable alternative in a time when millions of small businesses face uncertain futures. It's time to see ownership as not a privilege for the few but a path for the many.  John Abrams is a succession planning consultant, workplace democracy advocate, author, and the co-founder of both South Mountain Company and Abrams+Angell. He retired and handed over the company he started at age 24 in 2022, and started Abrams+Angell with his partner. They consult with the triple bottom line (TBL) businesses to help them with succession planning, worker co-op conversions, financial literacy, leadership development, and business effectiveness. He is the author of “From Founder to Future: A Business Roadmap to Impact, Longevity, and Employee Ownership,” which provides knowledge, strategies, and tools to help business owners successfully complete transitions. He joined us today to talk about forgetting hierarchy and running a company as a true team.  HIGHLIGHTS [02:30] Understanding B corporations.  [05:56] The Impact of Codifying Company Culture.  [10:24] The importance of clear leadership for effective decision-making.  [13:00] The differences between worker cooperatives, ESOPs, and employee ownership trusts.

External progress is often an overflow of internal work. People will congratulate and celebrate your achievements, often as if it happened quickly, when in reality it took years of commitment and dedication to growth and consistency that no one ever saw or recognized. Invisible progress are the intangibles. How you handle your attitude, commitment, leadership, responses. Success is far more than monetary. Define your own timeline and remember that the progress behind-the-scenes may be quiet, but it's steadiness will speak volumes in time.

Increase Agency Profit with Eli Rubel   From Burnout to Bankable: How Eli Rubel Built $10M+ in Profit Working 25 Hours/Week What if the secret to explosive agency profits isn't grinding harder—but designing smarter? Meet Eli Rubel, the founder of Profit Labs and serial agency entrepreneur who's racked up over $10 million in net profit since 2020—all while working just 25 hours per week. In this powerhouse episode of The Profit Answer Man, Rocky sits down with Eli to uncover the playbook that's helping agency owners stop the hustle and start keeping real money in their pockets. If you're tired of scaling your revenue only to watch profits vanish, this conversation will flip your mindset and give you the tools to build a cash-printing agency that works for you.   In This Episode, You Will Learn: Why revenue means nothing without profit—and how Eli structures his agencies to maximize take-home income. How Profit First shaped Eli's philosophy on agency finance (including lessons learned on a beach in Hawaii). The financial blind spots killing your margins—and how to flip your decision-making process. How to reverse-engineer your agency's operations from profit, not pressure. Why Eli is betting big on specialized, agency-focused bookkeeping and financial services. The overlooked math mistake almost every creative entrepreneur makes—and how to fix it fast.   Key Takeaways: Net Profit > Vanity Metrics. Eli focuses on what matters: how much you keep, not just what you make. Revenue without profit is just ego. Design the Business Around the Life You Want. Working 25 hours a week with high profit is not luck—it's intentional structure, delegation, and data-driven decisions. Profit First Isn't Optional—It's Essential. Implementing Profit First early on gave Eli the foundation to control cash flow and stop “hope” from being his strategy. The Reverse Budgeting Shift. Don't spend and hope there's profit left. Define profit first, then determine what's left to spend—Eli's agencies live by this rule. Pain Builds Purpose. Eli launched his agency finance firm because he lived the pain—and now helps others avoid the same traps.   Guest Bio: Eli Rubel is a serial entrepreneur and founder of Profit Labs. He owns a portfolio of agencies and has generated over $10 million in net profit since 2020—all while working part-time. His latest venture, Profit Labs, is laser-focused on helping creative and digital agency owners stop losing money through tailored financial insights, clean books, and actionable data.   Conclusion: This episode is your wake-up call: Stop measuring your business by how busy you are. Start measuring by how profitable it is. If Eli's journey showed you anything, it's this—agencies don't need more work; they need better financial systems. And if you're ready to create a business that pays you like the owner—not the operator—it's time for a conversation.   Links: Website: https://www.profit-labs.co/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elirubel/   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@profitanswerman Sign up to be notified when the next cohort of the Profit First Experience Course is available!

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Have you ever found yourself grinding endlessly, only to pause and think, “Is this really what I signed up for?” Maybe you started your business chasing freedom—only to end up feeling trapped by the very thing you built. It's a common trap: the belief that working harder and enduring more pressure will eventually earn you the right to enjoy life after a big exit. But as today's guest discovered, you don't need to wait 10 more years to start living. What you really need is a clearer why, a stronger structure, and the right people around you—people who understand your vision and support your growth. Blake Denman is the president and founder of Rickety Roo, a remote agency specializing in SEO and paid search marketing. He'll discuss his unconventional path into entrepreneurship, which was influenced by a personal injury, and the importance of designing your business and life around personal values, not just growth for growth's sake. He also shares his time management strategies, how he uses AI for self-reflection, and his perspective on the mental load of entrepreneurship. If you're an agency owner still doing everything—from ops to admin to taxes—you'll relate to his story. In this episode, we'll discuss: Strategic hires that might results in your identity crisis. Designing your life before it designs you. Time audits, energy filters & the “$5K task” rule. Figuring out what you actually want. Do you thrive in chaos? Manufacture some healthy pressure.

The Moment that Forced Him to Slow Down Blake didn't set out to build an agency. Like a lot of agency owners, he fell into it. What started as freelancing to pay the bills while he finished school and pursued a different career path took a hard left turn—literally—when a serious bike accident landed him with a traumatic brain injury. That moment forced Blake to slow down. Rebuild. Rethink. And when he got back into client work, he realized something: just because you can do it all doesn't mean you should. Like many agency owners, he hit the familiar ceiling of capacity. So he started hiring. First contractors. Then a coach in 2019. That's when the game really changed. The Pivot Point: Strategic Hires (and the Identity Crisis That Follows) When you've built your agency from the ground up, letting go isn't just hard—it can mess with your head. One of the pivots that really made a difference in Blake's agency was the strategic hires that required him to let go of some areas of the business. For instance, when he finally handed over operations. “I was like that John Travolta meme—just looking around wondering what to do with myself.” And that's the truth no one talks about: letting go of operations isn't just a tactical decision. It's emotional. You've tied your identity to being the guy who does everything. And suddenly… you're not. That shift sparked something deeper—what Blake calls “identity paralysis.” Not a crisis, but a freeze. A moment of, “If I'm not the operator, who am I now?” Spoiler: that question is the start of real CEO-level growth. Designing Your Life (Before It Designs You) Most agency owners plan every quarter like a military op: KPIs, OKRs, revenue targets. But how many plan their life that way? Blake started mapping his ideal year: the trips, the purchases, the experiences. Then he calculated what income he actually needed to live that life. We're mostly led to believe those goals are too far away, but the first time he did this he was just $1,500/month off. So many agency owners think they need to sell their business to finally live the life they want. But often, you don't need to sell—you just need to restructure. What if the business could serve your life now instead of being the thing you have to escape? Time Audits, Energy Filters & the “$5K Task” Rule Most people say they value their time but let it slip through their fingers, which is why you need a time tracking method that works for you. After trying a few, Blake got a framework from one of his early coaches. He categorizes his weekly tasks into four buckets: $5, $50, $500, and $5,000/hour value. If you think your time is worth $5,000 but the time audit shows its mostly spent in the $5 or $50 buckets, congrats—you've just diagnosed why your growth is stuck and your energy's tanked. To his surprise, this is what happened to Blake, who was spending way more time than he thought on the $5 and $50 columns. You don't scale by doing more. You scale by doing less of the wrong things. What Do You Actually Want? If your agency isn't giving you time, freedom, and joy… what the hell are you building it for? Blake now runs his agency with zero calls on Mondays. Focus time is blocked. The calendar is color-coded. And most importantly, the business doesn't need him 60 hours a week to grow. He also has the whole team on Brain.fm, a tool that uses science-backed audio to get you in the zone faster. Some would call that a lifestyle business, but so what? Lifestyle business can be extremely profitable too. Why not build your business around what you like and don't like? People who  struggle for 20 years to then sell their agency find that after all their work they have maybe ten years left to do the things they want to do. Lessons for the Owner-Operator Ready to Evolve If you're reading this and feeling that twinge—that mix of burnout and “I want more” clarity—take these cues from Blake: -Let go of the identity that your agency is you. -Map your ideal life, then build your business to fund it. -Hire for elevation, not just delegation. -Your value isn't in the tasks you do. It's in the vision you hold. From the Hustle Hamster Wheel to the Hedonic Treadmill You want the 8-figure agency, right? So did Blake. Until he realized that every time he hit a new goal, he'd feel good for a week… maybe five days. Then it was back to baseline. This is what's called the Hedonic Treadmill—and agency owners live on it without realizing it. We chase growth for growth's sake. Or worse, for external validation—from peers, clients, even family. Blake stopped to think about what was next after he had the money. Was he supposed to save it? Spend it? Did he even need that much? Define what you want your life to look like, and build your agency to support that. Don't fall into the trap of chasing growth for validation more than for yourself. If you let go of the idea of just hitting a number, surround yourself with the best team and clients, and set your priorities, you'll be able to go after what you really want and live your best life. Agency Owners & the Calm in the Chaos Most agency owners have had the type of upbringing that's them great under pressure. Calm in chaos. Laser-focused when everything's on fire. Of course, this can also become a trap if you start creating chaos just to feel normal. For instance, you may seek pressure to push you into action. In his case, after years of needing the chaos, Blake turned to Claude to figure out a way to manufacture chaos without the disastrous consequences. His AI coach creates a “painful penalty” for missing a goal. For instance, donate $1,000 to a political group you can't stand if you miss a revenue target. That'll light a fire. Point is: for some people motivation isn't just about dreaming big. If you need some added pressure to get working engineer consequences that make staying small more painful than pushing forward.

At its core, insurance underwriting is about judgment: making sense of messy information, pricing for uncertainty and doing it at speed. Technology and AI should make that easier, but is it really the answer to underwriting's most persistent challenges? In this episode, Robin Merttens speaks to Guillaume Bonnissent, CEO and founder of Quotech, a platform built specifically for underwriting teams. Guillaume brings a rare combination of perspectives: he's a former underwriter who became a technologist and his company reflects that crossover. We begin by reflecting on the past 12 months: what's changed since Guillaume was last on the podcast, and why Quotech's strategy of building for niche underwriting teams has started to gain serious traction. In this conversation, Guillaume talks about: Why underwriters still spend far too much time retyping data The real promise of AI in ingestion and why it's finally deliverable The structural shift from generic platforms to class-specific solutions Why "build vs. buy" debates rarely make sense for MGAs How to build systems that record data usefully, not just store it Why AI can't fix bad inputs, and what that means for underwriting teams We also dig into broader trends: how emerging tech is shifting the role of underwriters, whether AI really is a disruptor or just another tool and why so many companies are still struggling to make basic data available for decision-making. What emerges is a sharp portrait of a market in transition, one that's slowly waking up to the need for class-specific tools, data-first workflows and AI that's genuinely useful.

“What do you do?” It's a question we often ask to try to figure out someone's identity. But should work and identity be connected? Whether you're chasing success or dreading failure, it's easy to let your work define your worth. But that kind of pressure will break you. In part two of Made for Monday, we'll unpack how the Gospel frees you from proving yourself—and gives you a title no promotion ever could.

When it comes to retirement planning, two deceptively simple questions can reveal everything: Am I going to be okay? What rate of return do I actually need? In this episode, Nick and Jake unpack what those questions really mean and why getting clear answers can make or break your retirement. From defining what “okay” looks like (hint: it's not just a dollar amount) to calculating how hard your money needs to work without taking unnecessary risk, they illustrate how a solid retirement plan is more like tubing behind a boat than picking the hottest stock. You don't want to go so slow that inflation sinks you, or so fast that you wipe out. Join us to get more clarity, balance, and confidence in the next phase of life.

Chris Cuomo breaks down the two critical questions President Trump must answer about Iran that will define his presidency: Does America have to stop the Iranian regime from enriching uranium to weapons grade? And if yes, how? He argues that MAGA is imploding over this issue, with isolationists clashing with hawks, while nobody is offering real solutions beyond ""bomb them"" or ""do nothing."" Cuomo examines why Trump's best move is likely dealmaking rather than military action, despite pressure from Israel and his own party. He explores the legal constraints on unilateral military action, the distinction between the Iranian regime and its people, and why Trump needs to distance himself from MAGA's extremes to build the consensus necessary for handling this crisis. Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) discusses how the Iran uncertainty is affecting markets and what investors can do to protect their assets.

We are living in historic times. The war that began between Israel and Iran on June 13th is more than just another conflict — it is a turning point in history. This isn't a battle that began weeks ago, or even decades ago. It's the latest chapter in a millennia-old struggle — a war that has shaped and shaken the Middle East for centuries.Now, for the first time, a new horizon is emerging. Imagine a Middle East without war. Without terror. Without fear. Nations once at odds — now building, cooperating, cross-pollinating. It may seem impossible, but it is no longer a fantasy. We are witnessing the labor pains of a new world being born.As with every transition, there is pain. And our hearts grieve every life lost. But in the larger picture, the dismantling of evil clears the path for something greater: a world of possibility, of growth, of light.This is not just geopolitical. It's cosmic. Emotional. Spiritual. We are standing at the threshold of a new era.Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for this urgent and timely talk addressing Operation Rising Lion: The War That Will Define the Future of the World.

The Padres have gotten reacquainted with the Dodgers and it's not too hard to see what separates the two clubs. Darnay chats with SI's Ryan Phillips about the big picture takeaways from the teams' meetings, before diving into the numbers. There are some stats that tell the story of this up-and-down Friars' campaign. They highlight a promising, up inconsistent pitching staff as well as a lineup that lacks depth. Manny is once again carrying the team, while Xander Bogaerts can't get it going. Some numbers are good, some are bad, and others are baffling. But they all help explain why the Padres are where they are.

In this episode of "Shark Theory," host Baylor Barbee explores the concept of moving at your own pace through a reflective narrative inspired by a walk with his dog. As Baylor shares his experience of learning patience and presence from his Australian Shepherd, the episode delves into the pressures and constructs of societal timelines and the importance of defining personal success. Through compelling storytelling, Baylor encourages listeners to reconsider the habitual race to the next milestone and focus instead on savoring the present moment. Baylor argues that modern society often pressures individuals to meet arbitrary success benchmarks, leading to feelings of inadequacy when these aren't achieved. With keywords like "personal fulfillment," "social pressure," and "defining success," he emphasizes the need to ignore societal pressures and embrace one's own definition of success. By citing personal anecdotes and expert opinions, Baylor inspires listeners to break away from toxic influences and enjoy the journey of life at their own speed. This episode not only challenges conventional success paradigms but also provides actionable insights for finding happiness and contentment in everyday life. Key Takeaways: Embrace the present moment and resist societal pressure to chase future milestones. Define your own success by determining what truly brings you peace and happiness. Avoid comparisons with others as they can lead to feelings of inadequacy and failure. Break away from toxic influences that lead you off your desired life path. Understand the importance of pacing yourself based on your own goals and values. Notable Quotes: "We have these fictitious timelines of all the things that we need to happen in our life by a certain date." "What if instead of just hurrying on to the next thing, we just worked on being where we're at?" "The happiest people I've met are those that determine what success means to them." "You have to start breaking the chains of people trying to pull you where they want you to go." "Once you realize how many people don't care about how fast you're moving, life gets easier."

In this episode of Building Better Developers with AI, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche tackle a challenge that many modern developers face: navigating multiple software methodologies. With insights shaped by both real-world experience and AI-generated suggestions, the discussion reveals how developers can stay effective when juggling Agile, Waterfall, DevOps, and hybrid workflows. Understanding Common Software Methodologies The episode begins with an overview of today's most widely used software methodologies: Agile, Scrum, Waterfall, Kanban, DevOps, and SAFe. Rob and Michael highlight that developers often switch between these within the same organization or even across concurrent projects, depending on client requirements, legacy constraints, or team structure. The result? A dynamic but complex work environment that demands both technical and mental agility. The Challenge of Switching Software Methodologies The core challenge is staying productive while adapting to different software methodologies across teams and projects. Developers face more than just a change in process—they often deal with different toolsets, coding standards, sprint cadences, and collaboration models. This constant context switching can drain mental resources. “It's like being bilingual,” Michael explains. “If you're not fluent in a method, switching is exhausting.” Even development tools play a role. Some developers separate projects by using different IDEs to help them mentally shift gears between methodologies. Clarifying ‘Done' in Software Methodologies Rob and Michael explore a common point of contention: the definition of “done.” In Agile, it often means feature-ready for review or feedback. In Waterfall, it usually means final and locked. “You'll start a war in a meeting just asking what ‘done' means,” Rob quips. Michael uses a cooking analogy to explain the importance of clear expectations: requirements are the recipe, code is the ingredients, and the finished product must match what was promised. Without agreement on what “done” means for each software methodology, delivery and testing become chaotic. Adapting to Different Software Methodologies To truly thrive, developers must move from a methodology purist to an adaptive mindset, focusing on the value being delivered rather than the rigidity of a particular framework. “Don't serve the methodology. Serve the customer,” Rob emphasizes. Michael reminds us to avoid getting lost in small details, like UI color tweaks, when more critical features remain incomplete. Staying aligned with the end goal ensures that effort translates into real progress, regardless of methodology. Documenting Within Software Methodologies In teams that use multiple software methodologies, documentation often becomes fragmented or overly complex. Rob and Michael both stress that great developers learn to write “just enough” documentation—and keep it in one place. Michael offers a best practice: let the codebase be the source of truth. Embedding JavaDocs, comments, or changelogs within the code ensures that updates stay consistent with the actual implementation. It reduces dependency on separate, often outdated documentation tools. “If your code and documentation don't match, one of them is lying,” Michael warns. Key Takeaways on Software Methodologies Understand core methodologies — Agile, Waterfall, DevOps, and hybrids Support healthy context switching — Use tools and routines that help you adapt Align on ‘done' — Define it clearly with your team Focus on outcomes — Avoid getting stuck in rigid process rules Document just enough — And keep it close to your code Be Adaptable, Stay Focused To succeed across software methodologies, developers must be flexible, clear, and focused on delivering value. Rather than being loyal to a single framework, the best developers understand the principles behind them all. They communicate effectively, manage context switches efficiently, and utilize smart documentation to keep projects aligned. When you serve the goal—not just the process—you become a truly adaptive developer.

While the Atlanta Braves have won back-to-back series, the stretch of baseball to close the month of June could go a long way toward telling the tale of their season. Grant McAuley discusses the recent happenings for the Braves, who finally snapped a streak of six consecutive series losses but now face their biggest challenge -- seven games with the first-place New York Mets in a string of 13 straight games against the NL East. Buried in the division race by 13 games and lagging behind in the Wild Card standings, where Atlanta finds itself on the other side of the next four series may chart the course for the remainder of the 2025 campaign.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Don't Let Bill-Paying Kill Your Dreams June 10, 2025 | Episode -5112 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Summer's here, and while everyone's thinking about vacations and fun, Scott wants you to think about something more important: your focus. Your attention determines your destination, and most people don't realize others have already set their focus. In this episode, Scott shares a conversation he had with a young man who just finished school and was pursuing his “dream career.” But there was a problem - his focus was in the wrong place, and Scott could hear it immediately. Featured Story Scott met a young man at church who had just finished school and was working toward his dream career. The young man also got job certification to pay his bills while pursuing his passion. During their conversation, the young man said something that made Scott's ears perk up: “I'm hoping I can get a good job supporting my dream.” To Scott's trained ear, this wasn't hope - it was dream-erasing, defocused thinking that would lead the young man away from what he wanted. Important Points What you focus on is what you get - if you focus on paying bills instead of pursuing dreams, you'll stay focused on paying bills for 20, 30, or 40 years. Golden handcuffs are real - the certainty of earning income becomes your focus, and dreams disappear while you're busy doing stuff. The solution is separation - get a job separate from your dreams that pays the bills, then focus every available second on your dreams until you don't need that job anymore. Memorable Quotes “What you focus on is what you get. You've heard that a thousand times. Do you believe it?” “Most folks don't notice their dreams are gone for like 20, 30, 40 years because they're so busy doing stuff.” “When you focus on your dreams, you get so good at what you do. It's just a matter of time before you percolate to the top and start getting paid to do what you love to do.” Scott's Three-Step Approach Get a job that's separate from any dream you've ever had that makes the money you need to pay your bills. Focus every single second of time after work on your dreams and getting better at what you want to do. Define your money-making job by saying “I do this to make money so I can do that,” knowing you'll shift gears as soon as you're good enough at your dream pursuit.

If you've felt the tension between cultural compromise and kingdom truth, this episode will ignite you to live unashamed and full of gospel fire.
