And the definition will leave you hungry for dessert!Vivian Acquah shares a very clear - and delicious - definition of DEI, how the strategies and mindsets ensure your organization manages risk effectively, the financial costs you pay when you actively shy away from DEI, and an amazing look at how she uses virtual reality to help leaders truly understand what many in their organizations experience daily.

I'm showing up raw and real in this episode—white tee, unfiltered, and straight from the heart. I take you behind the scenes of my journey from fear-filled moments to life-altering breakthroughs. From failing multiple CPA exams to quitting a secure job at Deloitte, from launching Budget Dog to facing my daughter's rare medical condition—every leap was powered by fear. But not the kind that paralyzes; the kind that fuels you when there's no other choice but to rise.   In this episode, I share how fear can either break you or build you. I recount how I used fear to pass the CPA exams against the odds, walk away from my 9-to-5, support my family through unimaginable challenges, and ultimately find our dream home after losing almost everything. This is the rawest, most powerful episode I've ever recorded—and I hope it lights a fire in you to lean into your own fears.   Timeline Summary [0:00] Why I ditched the polished look for this episode and decided to go raw and real [2:09] The pivotal moment that shifted my mindset after college [4:11] My intense CPA study grind and early failures that nearly broke me [6:13] The public humiliation that sparked a turning point [11:04] The moment I finally passed the CPA exams—and what it taught me about fear [13:30] How I transitioned from Deloitte to full-time entrepreneurship with Budget Dog [16:12] The conversation that led me to leave my 9-5 earlier than planned [18:05] Welcoming my daughter Logan and the life-changing diagnosis we faced [23:08] Retiring my wife and relocating to Texas for Logan's care [28:22] Discovering mold and mycotoxins—and losing nearly everything [33:55] Facing homelessness, uncertainty, and massive financial losses [37:13] The moment we found our safe home and a new beginning [40:59] Why fear has become my greatest motivator   Quotables “Fear isn't something to run from—it's a signpost pointing to your next breakthrough.” “Public failure hurt, but it also lit a fire that nothing else could.” “Just because I'm financially free doesn't mean I'm not human—I still feel fear, but I've learned to use it.” “What most people see as setbacks, I see as setups for something greater.” “When life gave us fear, we didn't back down—we leveled up.”   Links & Resources https://bookwithbudgetdog.com/ped National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) Functional Neurologist & Health Journey Insights (referenced in Logan's story)   If this episode moved you, I'd love for you to leave a review, follow the podcast, and share it with someone who needs to hear this.

He also shares practical advice for physicians considering consulting careers, such as taking on leadership roles, developing a strong network, and building credibility in a specific area of expertise. For those thinking about leaving clinical practice, he offers a reassuring perspective: it's still possible to make a meaningful impact by improving healthcare systems and policies that affect thousands of patients—not just one at a time.

My guest for Episode #309 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is La Tonya Roberts, the founder and CEO of Harmony Consulting Group. La Tonya is a fractional COO, HR consultant, and executive coach who helps women entrepreneurs scale their service-based businesses from six to seven figures through systems, strategic planning, and operational excellence. Before launching her firm, she built her career at top consulting organizations like Deloitte and Booz Allen, where she developed deep expertise in organizational change and operational leadership. EPISODE PAGE WITH VIDEO, TRANSCRIPT, AND MORE In this episode, La Tonya shares her favorite mistake—staying too long in roles she had outgrown, taking on too much responsibility, and ultimately burning out. After experiencing both physical and emotional fatigue, including a dramatic moment that sent her to the hospital, she realized that her tendency to overfunction in high-demand environments was unsustainable. Those hard lessons eventually led her to rediscover joy in her work by launching her own business focused on operational harmony and intentional growth. La Tonya explains how she now helps founders—especially women—build scalable, process-driven businesses without sacrificing their well-being. She also shares how she uses tools like ChatGPT to automate repetitive tasks and increase efficiency, both in her business and her clients'. We also talk about the importance of aligning systems, people, and strategy, and how La Tonya's clients benefit from her experience in both large enterprises and nimble startups. Listeners will hear practical advice on avoiding burnout, building systems that run without you, and why "work-life harmony" may be a better goal than elusive "balance."

Chris Gheysens is chairman and chief executive officer of Wawa, a chain of more than 1,100 convenience stores in nine states across the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast regions of the U.S. and Washington, D.C. Wawa is a family- and associate-owned, privately held company with more than 45,000 associates serving almost two million customers every day. The company began in New Jersey in the early 1800's as an iron foundry and a cotton and textile mill and moved to Pennsylvania with the opening of a dairy plant in 1902. The original dairy was built in a rural section of Pennsylvania called “Wawa,” which was named by Native Americans to honor a favored game – the Canada goose. As home delivery of dairy declined and supermarkets became more abundant in the early 1960s, the concept to open Wawa convenience stores became a reality with the first in Folsom, Pa., in 1964. Gheysens, who's been with Wawa for more than 27 years, was previously chief financial and administrative officer with responsibility for all financial, legal and human resource functions. Prior to joining Wawa, Gheysens was in the audit practice at Deloitte and Touche, LLP in Philadelphia. A graduate of Saint Augustine Preparatory School in Richland, he earned his Bachelor of Science in Accountancy from Villanova University School of Business and his Master of Business Administration from Saint Joseph's University. Gheysens is a certified public accountant who was awarded an honorary Doctor of Leadership degree and the Beta Gamma Sigma Business Achievement Award from Saint Joseph's University.

Welcome to Episode 37 of the Talent Intelligence Collective podcast! In this data-driven episode, Alan Walker and Toby Culshaw from Lightcast (with Alison taking a well-earned break) delve into the world of talent analytics with Steve Kerwin, who leads the data and analytics organisation for Amazon's Stores Talent Acquisition team.The news roundup kicks off with a critical examination of Trump's manufacturing revival plans against the sobering reality of skills shortages across the US, with Deloitte projecting 1.9 million unfilled manufacturing jobs by 2033. The conversation shifts to Shopify's CEO's controversial policy of refusing to approve new headcount unless teams can demonstrate why AI can't perform the work, sparking a thoughtful discussion about the practical limitations of AI implementation. The segment concludes with a cautionary tale of an AI shopping app founder charged with defrauding investors after allegedly using human contractors in the Philippines instead of the advertised AI technology.Steve shares his eight-year journey building Amazon's talent acquisition analytics capabilities from the ground up, offering candid insights into scaling data solutions to thousands of users across one of the world's largest employers. He emphasises the critical importance of candidate experience data and how qualitative feedback, when properly captured and analysed, can transform hiring success at scale.The discussion explores the unique challenges of leading a diverse team of BI engineers, software developers, and data engineers, with Steve advocating for a servant leadership approach that empowers team members to grow their skills and tackle increasingly complex problems. He provides a refreshingly honest assessment of the persistent disconnect between talent acquisition, HR, and finance when it comes to operational forecasting and demand planning, highlighting the need for better integration across these traditionally siloed functions.For organisations just beginning to build their analytics capabilities, Steve offers practical advice, emphasising the importance of establishing solid foundational data structures before attempting more sophisticated analyses. He compares building analytics capabilities to constructing a house: "I can't build you bay windows and roofs if I don't have the basement laid."Until next time, stay curious, stay analytical, and most importantly, stay intelligent!As ever - big thanks to our sponsors: https://lightcast.io

In this timely episode of The Voice of Retail, host Michael LeBlanc welcomes back frequent guest and audience favorite Ira Kalish, Chief Global and US Economist for Deloitte, who is set to deliver the opening keynote address at Retail Council of Canada's STORE2025 conference on June 3rd. This conversation offers listeners a valuable preview of the critical economic insights Canadian retailers can expect from his highly anticipated keynote.As LeBlanc notes in the introduction, "I'm very excited that you're going to be here in person," highlighting the significance of Kalish's upcoming role in kicking off RCC's flagship event during this period of economic uncertainty. The episode serves as an essential primer for conference attendees and provides crucial analysis for all retail professionals navigating today's complex trade environment.Drawing on his deep economic expertise, Kalish reveals that average US tariff rates have skyrocketed to approximately 27% - levels not seen since 1903. This represents a dramatic increase from the previous 3-3.5% rates and has triggered significant financial market volatility, supply chain disruptions, and growing concerns about economic downturns - all topics he'll address more extensively in his STORE2025 presentation.The conversation tackles three major justifications for the new tariff approach: shifting from taxes to tariffs for revenue generation, rebalancing global trade priorities, and re-shoring manufacturing. Kalish systematically challenges these rationales, providing a preview of the economic framework he'll expand upon during his conference keynote.Particularly concerning for retailers planning to attend STORE2025, Kalish highlights data showing container shipments from China to the US are down 45% year-over-year, as importers either find tariffs too prohibitive or wait for potential policy reversals. This disruption threatens empty store shelves and significantly higher consumer prices in the immediate future - urgent challenges that will undoubtedly be central to his opening address.Continuing themes he'll develop further at the conference, the discussion also explores non-tariff barriers, currency manipulation accusations, and the possibility of regional "fortress" trading blocs. While Kalish doesn't foresee complete regionalization of trade, he notes that many countries are now working to reduce US trade dependence by liberalizing trade with each other.On a more optimistic note, the conversation concludes by examining how this trade crisis might catalyze positive economic reforms in Canada - a topic that will resonate strongly with the Canadian retail executives gathering at STORE2025.Listeners are encouraged to follow Kalish's weekly economic updates on Deloitte's thought leadership website at deloitte.com/insights, while also making plans to attend his must-see opening keynote at Retail Council of Canada's STORE2025 conference on June 1st, where he'll provide expanded insights on these rapidly evolving economic developments.  Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E. LeBlanc & Company Inc, a senior retail advisor, keynote speaker and now, media entrepreneur. He has been on the front lines of retail industry change for his entire career.

Real Estate Investing With Jay Conner, The Private Money Authority

If you're exploring strategies to build wealth, especially through real estate, the recent conversation between Jay Conner and Kenneth Gee on the “Raising Private Money” podcast is a must-watch. Kenneth Gee, a seasoned real estate investor, CPA, and commercial lender, has over 26 years of experience, has raised more than $50 million in private money, and has been involved in transactions totaling over $2 billion. In this episode, Ken shares his journey, insights on raising and leveraging private money, and actionable strategies for both active and passive investors.From a 3 AM Epiphany to Real Estate SuccessKen's story begins with a deeply personal motivator: time with family. While working grueling hours as a CPA at Deloitte, he found his only quality time with his newborn daughter was at 3 AM feedings. This realization sparked his pursuit of better financial freedom and work-life balance. Surrounded by successful real estate clients during his lending and accounting career, he decided to dive headfirst into the multifamily property space.His start wasn't glamorous—three small apartment buildings financed using a mix of seller financing, a home equity line, and support from his in-laws. What's notable is Ken's emphasis on starting where you are, using creativity, and not waiting for perfect conditions. He warns against being paralyzed by inexperience; instead, leverage what you have and learn as you go.Why Multifamily?While many consider starting in single-family homes, Ken chose multifamily from the get-go. His logic was straightforward: scalability and risk management. With multifamily, one vacancy doesn't devastate your income stream the way it might with a single-family unit. Plus, greater cash flow allows you to hire help, freeing up your own time—a crucial consideration for those juggling busy careers or family life.Raising Private Money—Built on Trust and TransparencyOne of the most powerful sections of the podcast focuses on Ken's approach to raising private money. Early deals were funded via personal connections, but over time, his network and credibility expanded. Now, Ken runs regular webinars—open and education-focused—for potential investors.This outreach isn't about high-pressure sales. Instead, he invites people to observe, learn, and engage at their own pace. Many followers tune in for months—even years—before choosing to invest. Ken's approach is a model in building trust: provide value, answer questions, and empower investors to make informed decisions.Education and Mentorship: The Real Difference-MakersBoth Ken and Jay stress a critical but often overlooked step: get educated before diving in. Ken's advanced multifamily acquisition program is a year-long commitment with weekly group coaching calls, resources, and hands-on support. The curriculum guides students from developing their personal financial statement and business plan, all the way through underwriting deals and asset management.Why so much focus on the details? Because, as Ken says, lenders and private investors will “sniff out” gaps in your knowledge. Being detail-oriented signals trustworthiness. It's also the key to building your confidence and making sound decisions—cornerstones for long-term success.Common Mistakes—and How to Avoid ThemKen has seen many new investors stumble by underestimating the importance of due diligence and accurate underwriting. Treat real estate as a business, not a side hustle. Those who ignore the details, rush deals, or skip coaching often pay dearly, both in lost money and missed opportunities.Jay adds an important point: don't go it alone, especially early on. A coach or mentor can help you avoid unseen pitfalls and accelerate your learning curve. The resources and podcasts available today can save you the hard lessons Ken had to learn the slow way decades ago.Final Tho
