People are one of the hardest parts of a practice. Even with careful hiring and a great culture, you'll still deal with turnover, performance issues, and the occasional wrong fit.  In this episode, I sit down with Amy Anderson of ACG Practice Partners to talk about when people problems are actually process problems. We cover retention, compensation, hiring, transparency, and the operational leaks that get more expensive as you grow. Make It Easier for Good People to Stay  You can't guarantee every great provider will stay, but you can make sure they understand their role, how they're evaluated, and how compensation works. Clear job descriptions, check-ins, and transparency around gross margin and pay can prevent confusion.  Before You Blame the Person, Look at the Process  If a different person stepped into the role tomorrow, would the same problem still happen? If yes, look at the system before replacing the person.  Before you hire again, review:  Job descriptions and onboarding  KPIs and compensation plans  Lead handoffs and manual work  Hiring criteria  Small inefficiencies add up fast as the team grows.  (00:05:48) Retaining good providers (00:25:56) Diagnosing people versus process problems (00:35:33) Improving hiring decisions (00:40:08) Finding workflow inefficiencies and revenue leaks (00:44:29) Building accountability into operations  Share the Numbers Your Team Can Actually Influence  You don't need to hand everyone your entire P&L. Give your team the metrics tied to their work, like gross margin, booking rates, follow-up, or conversion. Then performance conversations have something concrete to work from. Small Operational Problems Get Bigger With Growth  A small inefficiency can become wasted payroll, missed revenue, and unnecessary headcount as the practice expands. Start with what's costing the most time or money. Stronger systems help good employees work without the owner constantly stepping in, leading to better accountability, healthier margins, and less stress.

Eating a ripe tomato fresh from the garden is one of the true pleasures of summer, but growing tomatoes can be challenging — especially if your plants get hit by disease. On this Horticulture Day episode, we talk about tomatoes and their many diseases with Chelsea Harbach, plant disease diagnostician with the Iowa State University Plant and Insect Diagnostic Clinic. Then, horticulturist Aaron Steil joins us to answer listener questions.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The Less Stressed Life, I'm joined by my associate registered dietitian, Jenna De Kok, to share the deeply personal journey she and her husband have been on with Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS). After multiple exposures to water-damaged buildings, they both began experiencing unexplained symptoms, with Jenna developing debilitating panic attacks, severe insomnia, neurological symptoms, and overwhelming fatigue. Despite being told by multiple healthcare providers that it was "just anxiety," she continued searching for answers until she finally received a CIRS diagnosis. We also discuss what CIRS is, how it differs from mold illness, why environmental testing matters, and the role of the Shoemaker Protocol in recovery.KEY TAKEAWAYS: What is Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) Common neurological symptoms of CIRS  The difference between CIRS and mold illness  Trusting your body when answers don't add up  Why environmental testing matters  Finding the right tools for your healing journey ABOUT GUEST:Jenna is a registered dietitian via her business Nutritiously Jenna and associate practitioner at Less Stressed Life Nutrition. She started working with Christa in 2018 doing mentorship hours for her undergraduate degree. Her passion for women's wellness came from her firsthand struggles flaring with a variety of gut, detox/drainage, nervous system, and energy issues. In January 2026 was when she officially learned that CIRS was a piece of not only her health story but also, her husband's after a variety of exposures to biotoxins in their homes. Through this experience, her goal is helping other "misunderstood" clients better understand how their symptoms can be influenced by the health of their environment.WHERE TO FIND GUEST: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nutritiouslyjenna/SPONSOR:Thank you to Jigsaw Health for being such a great sponsor.

A Quick Note to Listeners: Before this week’s interview, Will Parker and Jen Schwanke take some time to answer a listener question. This week’s question is: I'm wanting to intentionally develop leaders on my team. Ideas or suggestions? Listen in to hear their repsonse! Meet Dr. Darin Thompson: Darin A. Thompson, PhD, is a veteran K–12 leader from Fairfax, Virginia, with nearly 20 years of experience and the founder of Pivotal Leaders Group. A two-time Outstanding Principal of the Year semi-finalist within his region, Dr. Thompson has led transformative school improvement efforts across multiple school divisions, resulting in double-digit gains in student outcomes and significant reductions in achievement gaps for historically underserved populations. A regular presenter at conferences such as NAESP/NASSP's United Conference, Making Schools Work, and the Virginia Alliance of Black School Educators, Dr. Thompson has contributed to Education Week, the Journal of Urban Learning, Teaching, and Research, and other publications. He is the author of The Four Cornerstones of Effective Schools, published by Solution Tree, and a proud member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. Effective Schools & the Four Cornerstones: Dr. Thompson's framework centers on the belief that effective schools are built through intentional systems, not isolated initiatives. In The Four Cornerstones of Effective Schools, he outlines how culture, collaboration, and aligned structures work together to support improvement. Rather than chasing new programs, leaders are encouraged to focus on building systems that consistently reinforce high-quality teaching and learning. Dr. Thompson's Educational Journey: Dr. Thompson shares that his path into education was anything but traditional. Initially interested in careers in law and financial planning, he discovered his passion for teaching and was later encouraged by a principal to step into leadership. That encouragement set him on a path that would eventually lead to the principalship and beyond, shaping his belief that leadership development often begins with someone recognizing potential in others. The Pivotal Leader Mindset: A key takeaway from the conversation is the importance of developing a “pivotal leader mindset.” Dr. Thompson explains that school improvement begins with how leaders think. Growth-oriented beliefs, combined with a willingness to examine one's own assumptions, allow leaders to better navigate complex challenges. Without this mindset, even the best strategies can fall short. Limiting Beliefs in Leadership: As the discussion continues, Dr. Thompson highlights how limiting beliefs can quietly undermine progress. Under pressure, leaders may begin to question their own effectiveness or doubt the capabilities of their staff. He emphasizes the importance of confronting these beliefs with evidence and shifting the focus toward building skills and capacity. When leaders change how they think, they change how they lead. School Culture & Staff Support: The conversation reinforces that strong culture is foundational to any improvement effort. Dr. Thompson describes common barriers such as complacency, isolation, and command-and-control leadership, all of which can limit progress. He stresses that support must come before accountability—teachers need clarity, resources, and encouragement before they can be expected to perform at high levels. Diagnosing the Cultural Landscape: Before implementing change, Dr. Thompson encourages leaders to pause and assess their current environment. He introduces three essential elements for a culture of support: clarity, trust, and readiness. Clarity ensures everyone understands the vision, trust builds confidence in leadership, and readiness equips staff with the skills needed to succeed. Skipping this diagnostic step often leads to frustration and failed initiatives. Building Instructional Capacity: Improving instruction requires more than one-time professional development. Dr. Thompson shares strategies for building capacity over time, including job-embedded learning, teacher-led sessions, and consistent feedback. He describes practical approaches like teacher-led “egg camps,” where educators share effective practices based on real classroom data, creating relevance and ownership in the learning process. PLCs & Collaboration: Professional Learning Communities play a critical role in sustaining improvement. Dr. Thompson explains that effective PLCs go beyond logistics and focus on meaningful collaboration around instruction and student outcomes. While resistance is common at first, establishing clear expectations and purpose helps shift teams toward deeper engagement and shared responsibility. Systems for Sustainable Improvement: Throughout the conversation, Dr. Thompson returns to the importance of systems. Strong systems act as guardrails, helping leaders stay focused on priorities and avoid reactive decision-making. By aligning systems with the school's vision, leaders create consistency and momentum, allowing improvement efforts to take root and grow over time. Leadership & Well-Being: The episode concludes with an encouraging message for leaders. Dr. Thompson reminds listeners that meaningful school improvement is possible without burnout. By focusing on systems, maintaining clarity, and prioritizing the right work, leaders can create lasting impact while also sustaining their own well-being. His message is both practical and hopeful—offering a clear path forward for those committed to leading effective schools.

In this episode of The Private Equity Podcast, Alex Rawlings is joined for a second time by Brian Gustason, Fractional Operating Partner at BG Operating Advisors.Brian explains why many lower-middle-market businesses struggle to scale after receiving institutional investment and how private equity firms can professionalise their go-to-market strategy.The conversation explores founder dependency, underdeveloped sales and marketing capabilities, and why firms must assess the maturity of the entire revenue engine before attempting to accelerate growth.Brian also outlines the importance of route-to-market analysis, including reach, fit and yield, and explains why growth should be treated as an interconnected system covering marketing, sales and customer success.The episode also examines go-to-market integration within roll-up strategies, the importance of execution fit during due diligence and how operating partners can help portfolio companies sequence growth initiatives more effectively.Key HighlightsWhy founder-led businesses often struggle to scaleThe risks of founder dependency in salesWhat Brian means by “phase zero” capabilitiesWhy firms may need to go backwards before scaling forwardsHow to professionalise a go-to-market strategyThe importance of route-to-market analysisUnderstanding reach, fit and yieldWhy lower-middle-market businesses hit growth ceilingsThe challenges of integrating founder-led businesses in a roll-upWhy go-to-market integration should be pre-wiredThe importance of execution fit during due diligenceWhy growth stalls are not always sales problemsCustomer success versus customer supportHow existing customers can drive expansion revenueSeparating revenue results from the revenue engineHow operating partners can support commercial transformationWhy growth initiatives must be sequenced correctlyTimestamps00:00 – Introduction to Brian Gustason and BG Operating Advisors01:01 – Common growth challenges in the lower-middle market01:31 – Founder dependency and underdeveloped commercial capabilities02:29 – Identifying phase zero go-to-market capabilities03:56 – Defining a professionalised go-to-market strategy04:23 – The role of go-to-market strategy in private equity05:17 – Why route-to-market analysis is often overlooked05:47 – Understanding reach, fit and yield07:14 – Why founder-led businesses often lack scalable processes08:38 – Growth ceilings and limited execution runway10:05 – Go-to-market challenges in roll-up strategies11:34 – Pre-wiring go-to-market integration13:01 – How deal origination affects integration13:58 – Execution fit and time to integration value15:51 – Diagnosing the real causes of stalled growth16:40 – Treating go-to-market as a connected system17:08 – The role of customer success in recurring revenue18:33 – Unlocking growth from existing customers19:53 – Assessing whether the revenue engine can scale20:22 – Separating revenue performance from revenue capability21:20 – Evaluating go-to-market maturity22:42 – Where to play, who to target and how to engage24:10 – How operating partners can support portfolio companies24:37 – The operating partner's role in due diligence25:35 – Identifying businesses that need growth intervention26:31 – Sharing best practices and coaching leadership teams26:59 – Sequencing growth initiatives effectively27:29 – How to connect with Brian Gustason27:57 – Closing remarksRaw Selection partners with Private Equity firms and their portfolio companies to secure exceptional executive talent.

Every August, Jess hears the same story on repeat: decision makers are on holiday, budgets are frozen, nobody's picking up the phone, so why bother? In this episode, Jess pushes back on that, hard. More decision makers and stakeholders are booking sales calls this August than she's seen in the last two years, and her own clients, working across leadership, performance, executive coaching, and fractional HR, are signing forty thousand pound retainers and hitting their entire annual revenue targets in six or seven months. It's not quiet out there - not even close! Jess is clear that when a sales process stalls, or a sales pipeline stops converting, it's rarely the market's fault, and it usually comes down to one of three things.  First, contagious negativity: doom and gloom talk spreads through business communities faster than success stories do, the same way an unhappy customer tells far more people about a bad experience than a happy one tells about a good one. If everyone around you is agreeing that nothing's working, it's easy to absorb that as fact instead of checking it against your own numbers. Second, strategy hopping: jumping from cold email outreach, to LinkedIn outreach, to networking, to trade shows, without ever giving a single method the time, volume, or clearly defined success markers it needs to prove itself. Most coaches and consultants haven't been taught what a lead generation channel is actually supposed to produce.  Its job is to book qualified sales calls, not close deals on its own, so judging an outreach campaign by how many sales it generated directly, rather than how many qualified conversations it opened, is an unfair test from the start. When that test fails, the channel gets written off and the search for a new one begins again, wiping out whatever progress had already been made. Third, and often the reason the other two happen at all, is not having a proven, best practice sales process to troubleshoot against in the first place. Without one, there's no baseline to compare results to, no way to tell whether a tactic is underperforming or simply hasn't had enough time, and no way to tell a genuine problem apart from ordinary variation.  This is made worse by a gap that rarely gets talked about: most coaches and consultants have invested heavily in qualifications for their specialism, whether that's leadership, HR, nutrition, or executive coaching, but very few of those qualifications include any formal sales training. Learning to sell on top of learning to deliver is a genuinely big undertaking, and struggling with it in year one is normal, not a personal failing. The real cost of strategy hopping isn't the time spent on any single failed attempt. It's staying stuck in the hardest, least comfortable phase of selling to corporate clients for far longer than necessary, because every reset means relearning lessons that a fully implemented, properly measured process would only have taught once. Coaches and consultants who commit to a single proven process, follow it as designed, and give it defined time and volume before judging it, tend to move through that difficult first phase once and into a far more sustainable place: referrals, inbound leads, and account maximisation with existing clients. So if you're heading into the final stretch of summer wondering whether to pause lead generation until September, the evidence points the other way. Corporate decision makers are still active, still booking calls, and still signing contracts. The businesses seeing the strongest results right now aren't the ones with an easier market. They're the ones executing, and honestly troubleshooting, a sales process they actually trust. Key Quotes "The purpose of lead generation is to book qualified sales calls." "That attitude is contagious. Happy customers will talk about their experience with a company to one or two people. Unhappy customers tell on average ten people how unhappy they are about something." "The hardest bit of selling to companies is the first year doing it, because in the first year selling to companies, you are learning and implementing all new skills."   Key Takeaways 1. The Market Isn't the Problem. The Story About the Market Is. A slow market isn't universal, it's what happens when a proven process isn't being run. 2. Negativity Is Contagious, and It Spreads Faster Than Success Does. One unhappy voice in your peer group can talk ten more people into believing the market's dead. 3. There's a Real Difference Between Positive Critique and Defeatist Thinking. Diagnosing a specific gap fixes your process; writing off a whole channel after one bad week doesn't. 4. There's a Clear Divide Between People Who Fully Implement a Strategy and People Who Hop Between Them. Chasing a quick win means never finishing anything long enough to know if it actually works. 5. Customising a Proven Template Often Breaks It. Tweak a proven template and you lose the ability to tell whether the strategy failed or your edit did. 6. Very Few People Selling to Companies Have Ever Been Taught to Sell. Nobody trains coaches and consultants to sell, so struggling with it in year one is normal, not a failure. 7. Every Sales Activity Is an Experiment, and Experiments Need Defined Success Markers. Without defined success markers upfront, you can't tell if a tactic is failing or just unfinished. 8. Strategy Hopping Keeps You Stuck in the Hardest Part of Selling to Corporates, on Repeat. Every reset sends you back to the hardest, least profitable stage of selling to corporates. 9. August Is a Genuine Opportunity, Not a Dead Zone. Waiting for September to restart outreach guarantees a slow start to Q4.   If you've enjoyed listening to Doing everything but your sales process still isn't converting in the way you want?

For almost forty years, Jerry Marzinsky worked the front lines of severe mental illness. State hospitals. Maximum security prisons. Emergency rooms. He was trained to believe schizophrenia is nothing more than a chemical imbalance in the brain. Then he did the one thing his field told him never to do. He listened to the voices, and he started talking back. What he found across four decades and thousands of patients did not fit the textbook. The voices are always negative. They are always destructive. They despise anything to do with God. And they follow patterns so consistent that Jerry mapped twenty-five of them. In this members-only episode, Jerry takes us all the way in. The voices that hold rank like an army. The patient whose voice told him he had no right to interfere with their way of life. The reason schizophrenics take their own lives at several times the rate of everyone else. And the collision between clinical psychology and Ephesians 6 that cost him his standing in the medical world.

Thanks to our Partners, Pico Technology and AutelWatch Full Video EpisodeDiagnosing the Aftermarket Becomes Automotive Field TheoryThings have changed.After years as Diagnosing the Aftermarket A to Z, the podcast has a new name: Automotive Field Theory.In this episode, Matt explains why the original title was chosen, why it eventually became a problem, and how the new name better represents both the podcast and the range of subjects explored on it.The original name was intended to leave the show wide open. Automotive diagnostics and technology were always part of it, but so were psychology, economics, relationships, mental health, addiction, movies, sports, professional wrestling, and the people behind the work.That freedom is not going away.The problem was simpler: people searching for automotive and auto repair podcasts often could not find the show. Neither “diagnosing” nor “aftermarket” is exclusively connected to the automotive industry, and the word “automotive” did not appear anywhere in the title.Automotive Field Theory solves that problem while also fitting the show on several levels.It is a play on quantum field theory, reflecting Matt's lifelong interest in physics and his tendency to explore how things actually work. It also refers to the entire automotive field, from vehicle design and manufacturing through sales, service, collision repair, locksmithing, programming, calibration, modification, and eventually recycling.Finally, there is the theory itself: automotive theory, diagnostic theory, economic theory, psychological theory, and the hypotheses and ideas that shape how people understand the profession.The name is changing. The podcast fundamentally is not.In This EpisodeWhy Diagnosing the Aftermarket A to Z was originally chosenThe searchability problem with the old titleWhy “automotive” needed to be in the nameThe connection between automotive field theory and quantum field theoryThe enormous range of careers contained within the automotive fieldWhere independent repair overlaps with collision, locksmithing, programming, and ADASWhy the new title may make it easier to invite guests and reach new listenersWhat listeners can expect from the show going forwardThe people and podcasts that helped inspire and support the changeMatt also recognizes several shows across the Automotive Repair Podcast Network, including:Remarkable Results Radio PodcastBusiness by the NumbersSpeak Up!

Most productivity advice operates in one of two categories: you're missing a skill or system, or you have a mindset problem. Cat Mulvihill thinks both camps are right — and both are incomplete. There's a third category that almost nobody is talking about, and she argues it's the one most likely to be the actual culprit when you're stuck. My guest this week is Cat Mulvihill, a speaker, trainer, accountability coach, and licensed Immunity to Change facilitator who has been leading workshops for more than 20 years. After being formally diagnosed with ADHD in 2024, she developed the Momentum Formula — a framework separating the reasons we fail to follow through into three distinct categories: logical, biological, and psychological. Cat is a longtime Lab member and led the second-highest-rated session at this year's Lab Offline event in Boise. In this episode, we talk about: The three roadblocks to follow-through — and why the biological one is the category almost everyone overlooks How to diagnose which roadblock is actually keeping you stuck, and why the order you check them matters The “dreaded identity” — the hidden, subconscious version of yourself you're afraid of becoming — and how it quietly kills follow-through Why knowing your tendency from Gretchen Rubin's Four Tendencies framework changes which accountability strategies actually work for you By the end of this episode, you will have a concrete diagnostic framework for understanding why you're not doing the things you know you should be doing — and what to try first.

If you're leading leaders, accountability is the first thing that breaks. You're not overloaded. You just rely too much on your own individual brilliance to get results. Until you learn to lead your leaders better, you'll never get out of the spin cycle.A few weeks ago, Em and I sat in a room with six CEOs we've been working with for the better part of a year. We asked each of them to rate their own leadership performance, as founder CEOs, on a scale of 1 to 10. When it came to how well they'd built a strong accountability cadence in their business, all but one rated themselves at six or below.Here's the interesting part. Every single one of them could describe the problem accurately. Diagnosing it wasn't hard. Changing it is incredibly difficult. Nobody in that room needed new information.That's the whole game. It's not about not knowing what to do. It's all in the execution.In this episode, Em and I give you the 12 execution breakthroughs that came out of that room. If you're the person everyone ultimately relies upon to get things done, this one's for you.The 12 Execution Breakthroughs:Delegation without accountability is doomed to failureRescuing people when they don't deliver doesn't help them, it limits their growthAccountability without empowerment is crueltyMicromanaging slows everything to glacial speedStandards need to be upheld all the way to the front lineIf you can't measure it, you can't hold people accountable for delivering itLifting the pace requires pressure, lifting the standard requires conflictStructure in 1:1s builds the guardrails to connect fully with the individualJust because you've fixed the problem doesn't mean you've solved itMoney is less important to people when they see a future pathThere's a big difference between being relaxed and being complacentDiscomfort is the price of admission to a meaningful life————————No Bullsh!t Leadership episodes:Ep.411: Stop Rescuing UnderperformersEp.374: The Biggest Killer of EmpowermentEp.348: How To Overcome Your Fear Of FeedbackEp.334: The Perfect Ending for a 1:1 MeetingEp.264: Controlling Without MicromanagingEp.260: Setting the Bar: Raising the standard of leadership excellenceEp.39: Getting Results When You Don't Have ControlLBT link:Leadership Beyond the Theory————————Have you taken our free Leadership Blindspot test?✨In just 10 minutes you'll uncover the hidden leadership habits holding you back.Get your Blindspot Score and know exactly what to fix before it costs your career!TAKE THE FREE TEST HERE————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally.Your boss wants more with less.

Episode Description:This is a From the Archive episode with Ray Dalio. Ray Dalio built Bridgewater Associates into one of the most influential investment firms in the world. But in this archive conversation, James is less interested in the headline version of success and more interested in the painful turning point that made Ray rethink everything.At 34, Ray's business nearly failed. He had been confident—by his own description, arrogant—and a wrong market call left him broke, humbled, and forced to decide whether to quit or rebuild.That failure became the origin story behind many of his principles.Ray explains that the experience taught him to fear being wrong in a useful way. Instead of retreating, he began seeking out the smartest people who disagreed with him. He learned to triangulate among independent thinkers, write down his decision criteria, study how similar events had happened in history, and build systems that reduced risk without giving up upside.The conversation then moves into the central ideas of Principles: pain plus reflection equals progress; failure equals success if you turn it into learning; and every person should write down the principles they use to deal with reality.James and Ray discuss the five-step process for success: set audacious goals, identify the problems blocking those goals, diagnose root causes, design ways around them, and execute. Ray emphasizes that no one is good at all five steps, which is why people need others who can supply the strengths they lack.A large part of the episode focuses on Bridgewater's culture. Ray explains idea meritocracy, radical truth, radical transparency, thoughtful disagreement, and believability-weighted decision-making. In his view, the goal is not democracy or autocracy. The goal is to get the best ideas on the table, stress test them, and make better decisions.James pushes on the human side of this: what happens when disagreement feels like a fight? Ray answers by describing the “two yous”—the thoughtful, logical self and the emotional, reactive self—and why writing down principles can clarify which values bring people together and which values separate them.The conversation closes with habits, meditation, creativity, the economy, debt cycles, wealth inequality, cryptocurrencies, and Ray's formula for a successful life: dreams plus reality plus determination.Editorial Note:This is a From the Archive episode. References to Bridgewater's assets, Ray's Forbes net worth, the economic cycle, cryptocurrencies, interest rates, central-bank policy, and current market conditions reflect the original recording period.This episode discusses investing, markets, debt cycles, and cryptocurrencies, but it should not be treated as financial advice.What You'll Learn;Why Ray Dalio sees his early career failure as one of the most important events of his life.How being wrong pushed him toward radical open-mindedness.Why Ray believes pain plus reflection equals progress.How to turn mistakes into principles you can use next time.Why failure can become success if it produces learning.The five-step process Ray uses for achieving goals.Why no one is good at every step of success.How thoughtful disagreement can improve decision-making.What an idea meritocracy is and why Bridgewater built around it.How believability-weighted decision-making differs from democracy or hierarchy.Why Ray believes meaningful work and meaningful relationships must go together.How writing down principles clarifies relationships, teams, and personal choices.Why habits control so much of life—and how they can be changed.How meditation helps Ray access calm, creativity, and clearer thinking.How Ray thinks about debt cycles, economic risk, wealth inequality, and cryptocurrencies.Timestamped Chapters:[03:00] The Failure

OrganizationsRay advises people to define the terms of their relationships and ask how disagreements should be handled.[48:11] Would Everyone End Up With the Same Principles?James asks whether writing

asks how a young person can identify goals, and Ray recommends self-discovery, experimentation, and reflection.[01:04:06] How the Economic Machine WorksRay outlines productivity, short-term debt cycles, long-term debt cycles, central-bank policy, and where the economy sat at the time.[01:07:29] Two Economies and Wealth InequalityRay explains why averages can hide the economic reality of the bottom 60% versus the top 40%.[01:11:00] Cryptocurrencies and BlockchainRay distinguishes blockchain technology from individual crypto assets and compares the space to the early internet.[01:14:26]

Thanks to our Partners, Shop Boss and AppFueledJoe Marconi believes one of the biggest mistakes auto repair shop owners make is assuming that more advertising will solve declining car count. In reality, marketing can make the phone ring, but what happens after a customer walks through the door determines whether they'll ever come back. Brian Walker and Joe dive into the critical difference between customer acquisition and retention, why hospitality should be at the center of every auto repair shop, and how internal processes, culture, leadership, and customer experience ultimately drive long-term growth. If you've ever wondered why your marketing isn't producing the results you expected, this conversation will challenge the way you think about growing your business.Listen to the full episode to discover how to turn first-time customers into lifelong advocates.Show Notes with TimestampsIntroduction to the Topic(00:00:09) Host Brian Walker introduces guest Joe Marconi and the topic of his article, "Advertising doesn't Fix Car Count Problems."The Original, Stronger Title(00:02:04) Joe reveals his article's original title was "Advertising doesn't sell anything and I can prove it," but it was toned down.Acquisition vs. Retention(00:03:04) The discussion shifts to the difference between acquiring new customers and the crucial, often overlooked, aspect of retaining them.The Biggest Misconception(00:04:31) Joe explains the biggest misconception is that advertising alone can solve weak sales or low car counts for a shop.Internal Marketing is Key(00:06:08) The conversation highlights that every interaction with a customer inside the shop is a form of marketing that builds relationships.Building a Positive Culture(00:07:17) Joe advises shop owners to establish a strong internal marketing plan and a positive culture before spending more on advertising.The Hospitality Industry(00:09:04) The speakers discuss how auto repair shops should adopt a hospitality mindset, similar to restaurants and hotels, to improve customer experience.The Walt Disney Effect(00:10:33) Joe explains how customers judge a shop on how they were treated, not the technical details of the repair.A Real-World Example(00:14:15) Joe shares a story of a large shop that thought it had a car count problem but actually had an internal process problem.The Dangers of Automation(00:18:54) Brian shares examples of how automated call trees and poor service advisor responses can undermine even the best marketing efforts.Mapping the 5-Star Experience(00:21:41) Joe outlines the steps to creating a world-class customer experience, from their first online search to post-repair follow-up.Remembering the Details(00:24:32) The importance of using the shop management system to note personal details about clients to build stronger, lasting relationships.What to Do Before Spending on Marketing(00:27:01) Joe advises owners to first evaluate their business goals and, most importantly, focus on the employee experience before increasing ad spend.Happy Employees Equal Happy Clients(00:29:37) The discussion emphasizes the direct link between a positive employee culture and a positive customer experience, citing Chick-fil-A as an example.Playing the Long Game(00:32:13) Brian explains why his agency advises shops with internal issues to fix those first, ensuring a better long-term marketing ROI.Fix the Shop Owner First(00:33:37) Joe stresses that a shop's success often starts with the owner's mindset, leadership, and willingness to address internal problems.How to Contact Joe Marconi(00:36:03) Joe shares how listeners can get in touch with him and Elite Worldwide for coaching and advice.Lagniappe (Books, Links, Other Podcasts, etc)Unreasonable Hospitality Thanks to our Partners, Shop Boss and AppFueledThis episode is sponsored by Shop Boss.

Dr. Lauren Kim and first author Dr. Daniel Marinescu discuss this study comprised of approximately 1,500 patients which determines the relative importance of specific CT imaging features used to distinguish radiologic patterns in fibrotic interstitial lung disease.

#1006 Can you scale a business without losing yourself in the process? In part 2 of this two-part episode, Luka Petrovic returns to dig into the systems and mindset behind growing Sydney Music Lessons beyond himself. Luka gets candid about where he thinks AI can (and can't) help — like sourcing partnership leads, but never replacing human-led recruiting or relationship-building — and lays out his framework for separating "business maintenance" tasks from true growth tasks so owners can focus on the work only they can do. He also opens up about the software stack running his marketplace, why quality always wins over speed, and the importance of protecting your health and personal life so your business doesn't collapse alongside you. Luka closes with his best advice for aspiring entrepreneurs: list out everything you're good at, because your next business idea is probably already on that list! What we discuss with Luka: + AI's limits in relationship-based business + Business maintenance vs. business growth tasks + Recruiting and vetting quality teachers + Software stack: WordPress, Xero, Ahrefs, Google Ads + Scaling without losing personal quality control + Quality over speed when growing + Protecting health and work-life balance + Diagnosing and fixing business problems + Turning personal skills into a business idea Thank you, Luka!

Financial commentator Chris Irons, also known as Quoth the Raven on X and author of the popular QTR Fringe Finance substack, returns to the show with a sobering assessment of markets he says are at or above the highest valuations in history — propped up by a passive bid, options-driven flows, and ten mega-cap names carrying everyone's retirement. Irons explains why he's stepped back from active trading permanently, why he believes the SpaceX IPO's $2 trillion ask may have marked a top in AI euphoria, and why Kevin Warsh's inflation-fighting promises will crumble the moment equities fall 10-20%. He shares where he's finding opportunity — including his early psychedelics call that's crushed the market this year, emerging markets, and beaten-down gold miners — and warns that the most underappreciated risks lie in stablecoins, crypto leverage, private credit, and regional banks. His bottom line: a sharp deleveraging is coming, the Fed will fold at the first sign of discomfort, and gold could hit $7,500 or higher after the next round of money printing.This episode is sponsored by Monetary Metals - learn more at https://www.monetary-metals.com/julia/ Links: X: https://x.com/QTRResearchSubstack: Viewers/listeners of The Julia La Roche Show get 80% off an annual subscription of QTR's Fringe Finance https://quoththeraven.substack.com/subscribe?coupon=7c8478df&utm_content=207295644Timestamps:00:00 Introduction and welcome back 00:57 Big picture: Fed stuck between a rock and a hard place 03:18 Out-of-control fiscal policy and the "sovereign Ponzi scheme" 05:41 Private equity repackaged in insurance wrappers (2008 echoes) 06:30 SpaceX IPO as a possible top signal for the AI bubble 07:38 Why Chris stepped back from active trading permanently 12:01 "Being right vs. making money" 13:15 Life after trading: clarity, priorities, and more content 14:45 Diagnosing the market: passive bid, gamma squeezes, and index distortion 16:35 The case for equal-weight (RSP) over cap-weighted S&P 18:30 Michael Burry's AI build-out vs. dot-com comparison 21:10 Opportunities: the psychedelics thesis and how it played out 27:00 Gold and miners: buying the pullback, $7,500 gold scenario 30:45 What to expect from a Kevin Warsh-led Fed 34:36 Should inflation even be the Fed's mandate? 36:04 Arbitrary prices and permanently distorted markets 37:45 The vocal track analogy: too many plugins on the economy 40:10 Why active trading is impossible in a headline-driven market 41:27 Most underappreciated risks: stablecoins, Tether, and crypto contagion 43:30 Corporate fraud, private credit, regional banks, and subprime auto46:01 Closing thoughts and subscriber discount

After leaving a long sales career, David Rubenstein spent a year meeting more than 300 founders across 41 countries and turned what he heard into a framework for how companies sell now. In this episode of Founded & Funded, David sits down with Madrona's Anna Baird and Eric Wong to dig into why AI left buyers with more information and less clarity, why deals stall out of fear rather than disinterest, and how founders can cut through. The conversation covers selling against build-it-yourself AI objections, the return of in-person selling, and why the founder's own brand is more important to drive pipeline. This was originally an AMA with Madrona portfolio companies, but we wanted to share David's full sales playbook with founders, GTM leaders, and operators for a grounded look at how buying behavior shifted and where to focus when the old tactics stop paying off.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode Most auto repair shops are sitting on a goldmine of untapped revenue without realizing it. In this episode, Carm Capriotto welcomes Jimmy Alauria of 3A Automotive & Diesel Repair to discuss how deferred work can become one of your shop's most effective growth strategies. By pulling just two years of data from his shop's database, he discovered $3.3 million in potential revenue from deferred services. From better customer communication to smarter follow-up systems, Jimmy explains how to turn yesterday's declined repairs into tomorrow's repair orders. What You'll Learn Why your customer database is one of your shop's most valuable assets.How deferred work can create significant new revenue without increasing car count.Why shops should schedule the next appointment before the customer leaves.While DVIs provide excellent transparency, their primary goal should be to educate the customer and help them plan, rather than to force an immediate $5,000 repair order. Jimmy notes that customers decline work not necessarily because they lack trust, but because they need time to budgeHow categorizing repairs by safety, reliability, maintenance, and appearance improves customer understanding.Understanding the customer's personal "car goals," whether they love the car and want to avoid a new car payment, or they hate the car and want to trade it in, is also critical to framing recommendations effectively.The shortcomings of traditional CRM follow-up systems and how AI can improve communication.How AI helps prioritize repairs and translates technical repair language into customer-friendly messaging that drives response. Deferred work isn't lost business; it's future opportunity. By building better follow-up processes, educating customers, and using technology to communicate more effectively, shops can strengthen relationships, improve customer retention, and unlock substantial revenue already waiting in their database.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode A viral social media clip about ADAS calibrations sparked thousands of comments and exposed a troubling reality: many automotive professionals still misunderstand when and why calibrations are required. In this episode, Carm Capriotto welcomes technical specialists and industry leaders Keith Perkins and Matt Fanslow to examine the industry's response, separate fact from fiction, and explain why following OEM repair procedures is essential for both vehicle safety and professional credibility. What You'll Learn The difference between static and dynamic ADAS calibrations, and why confusing the two leads to costly mistakes.Why programming, configuration, initialization, and calibration are separate procedures with different purposes.How fear of losing a sale often outweighs concerns about vehicle safety and liability.The real-world consequences of skipping OEM-required calibration procedures.How a properly calibrated vehicle helped protect Keith's wife and children during a serious highway rollover crash.How elevating the role of theCalibration Specialistreinforces professionalism and builds customer confidence. ADAS calibrations are not optional add-ons or revenue generators; they are critical safety procedures designed by vehicle manufacturers to ensure advanced safety systems perform as intended. Professional repair shops protect their customers by following OEM repair information, completing every required calibration, and returning every vehicle to the road safe and ready to perform.

The press is the only industry the Constitution protects. Hugo Balta thinks too many newsrooms forgot why, and he walked out to prove it. Hugo Balta spent three decades in newsrooms at NBC, MSNBC, Telemundo, CBS, ABC, and ESPN before leaving mainstream media for independent journalism. He now serves as executive editor of The Fulcrum and publisher of the Latino News Network, and he remains the only person in the history of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists to serve twice as its president. This conversation runs from a Paterson, NJ childhood as the son of Peruvian immigrants to why he rejects objectivity as a marketing tool, what a free press is actually for, and the morning he flew the flag upside down.

No journalist checks their identity at the newsroom door, and pretending otherwise is what audiences have stopped believing. The honest standard is fair and accurate, built on transparent methods and undisputed facts. The math flipped, so he left. Early in his career, journalism was 70 percent of the job and business pressure 30. A decade later that ratio inverted toward clicks and presidential tweets, and that was the moment he chose independence. Diagnosing a problem is only half the work. Solutions journalism holds that reporters owe readers more than a spotlight on what's broken. The turn toward what right looks like, backed by evidence and a few action items, is what separates informing from educating. Understand the motivation, not just the position. Most disagreements are about the path, not the destination. Asking what drives someone's stance humanizes them and opens the ground where real debate can happen. About Our Guest Hugo Balta is executive editor of The Fulcrum and publisher of the Latino News Network, which has grown under his leadership to ten local and national digital news sites. A three-decade veteran of network and public media, he is an accredited Solutions Journalism Network trainer and teaches at Columbia College Chicago.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode Your posted labor rate may not be the labor rate you're actually collecting, and that gap could be costing your shop thousands of dollars every month. In this episode, Carm Capriotto is joined by Andy Adams, a shop owner and business coach, and Rob Sperring, a service manager, to explain why the Effective Labor Rate (ELR) is one of the most overlooked yet impactful performance metrics in the auto repair industry. They break down why ELR falls short, how it affects profitability, and the practical steps every shop owner can take to close the gap. What You'll Learn What Effective Labor Rate (ELR) is and why it matters more than your posted door rate.Why healthy shops should collect at least 90 percent of their posted labor rate.How unbilled diagnostic time, underpriced canned jobs, and complimentary inspections reduce profitability.Why excessive discounting, even with good intentions, can quietly erode your bottom line.How shifting consumer buying habits make labor profitability more important than ever.Why improving ELR creates opportunities to increase technician compensation and strengthen your business.How auditing repair orders can uncover missed labor opportunities and unnecessary discounts.Why updating your labor matrix and canned jobs can immediately improve financial performance.How sharing KPI's (key performance indicators) with your team builds ownership and accountability throughout the shop. Effective Labor Rate is more than a financial matrix; it's a direct measure of how well your shop captures the value of the work it performs. By understanding where labor revenue is being lost and making intentional operational improvements, shop owners can increase profitability, invest in their teams, and build a stronger, more sustainable business.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor speaks with Naji Abbas, Director of the Prisoners and Detainees Department at Physicians for Human Rights Israel, about the Israeli army's policies and practices of kidnapping and disappearing Palestinians into detention, where torture is rampant. Among the 5000 Palestinians detained without charge are 14 senior Palestinian doctors from Gaza, including Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza, whose condition has deteriorated. Following his most recent visit to Dr. Abu Safiya, attorney Nasser Odeh reported "tangible and immediate danger" to Dr. Abu Safiya's life due to a "dramatic escalation in the assaults and torture" inflicted by Israeli prison guards against Dr. Abu Safiya. Ahmed and Naji place the detention of Gaza's doctors within the logic of genocide, as it is part of the dismantling of the healthcare services people need to live.  Resources from Physicians for Human Rights Israel: "Physicians for Human Rights Israel Warns of Imminent Danger to Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya's Life": https://www.phr.org.il/en/imminent-danger-to-dr-hussam-abu-safiyas-life/ Physicians for Human Rights Israel's podcast, Diagnosing the Barriers: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uwVBdUIerZZpdRY5pIygT See especially their newest episode, "Gaza Needs its Doctors -- Release the 14," featuring PHRI's Maha Loulou and Lee Caspi: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1FINJyQYJlPO97shWJNOhQ Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya to his lawyer: “This is the last time you will see me… They brought me here to kill me" "Torture of Medical Staff from Gaza in Israel • Report and Testimonies" See also B'Tselem's report "Living Hell: the Israeli Prison System as a Network of Torture Camps" Naji Abbas is Director of the Prisoners and Detainees Department at Physicians for Human Rights Israel.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode What does it take to build one of the fastest-growing auto repair businesses while leveraging artificial intelligence to improve performance at every level? In this episode, Carm Capriotto welcomes Jesse Jackson, Founder and CEO of Mango Automotive, to discuss how she scaled from zero to eight locations in less than five years. Jesse shares the leadership lessons learned through rapid growth, how custom AI tools are helping improve customer experience and operational consistency, and why she believes it's time to rethink how independent shop owners plan their exit from the industry. What You'll Learn How Mango Automotive expanded from a startup to eight locations through strategic acquisitions.The leadership challenges that come with rapid growth and why building a corporate support team became essential.The three cultural principles that drive employee engagement: never yell, bonus well, and have fun.How AI is being used to measure standard operating procedures and improve accountability.Why analyzing phone conversations with AI helps advisors convert more callers into customers.How providing realistic price ranges over the phone can improve appointment conversion rates.How AI-driven follow-up processes dramatically increased maintenance rebooking rates.Practical ways any shop owner can use tools like ChatGPT or Claude to evaluate service advisor performance without spending hours reviewing phone calls.Why thousands of shop owners approaching retirement may be leaving significant business value on the table.How Jesse's cooperative exit model could help independent shop owners achieve substantially higher business valuations than traditional private equity acquisitions. Artificial intelligence isn't replacing great leadership; it's making great operators even better. Combined with a strong culture, measurable processes, and innovative thinking about business ownership, AI can help repair shops improve customer experience, scale more effectively, and create greater long-term value for both.

Was Henry VIII a narcissist? A psychopath? A sociopath?These labels are increasingly applied to England's most famous king, but after years of researching Henry VIII and reading contemporary sources, I don't think the evidence allows us to make that kind of diagnosis.In this video, I explain why I believe there's an important difference between judging Henry VIII's actions and trying to retrospectively diagnose his personality using modern psychology. I also explore why I don't believe there were "two Henrys", why context matters, and why reducing complex historical figures to a single label can actually stop us asking the most interesting historical questions.I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments. Do you think historians should diagnose historical figures using modern psychological terms? #HenryVIII #TudorHistory #AnneBoleyn #History #Tudors

 CardioNerds (Drs. Apoorva Gangavelli, Rebecca Garber, and Tina Reddy discuss INOCA with Dr. Claire Raphael. Audio editing by CardioNerds Academy intern, student doctor Pacey Wetstein. This episode was produced as part of the CardioNerds Academy curriculum by House Einthoven under the guidance of House Chief, Dr. Apoorva Gangavelli, and Academy Program Director, Dr. Gurleen Kaur. A matching review article will be published in US Cardiology Review, the official journal of CardioNerds. Non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is more common than often recognized, particularly in women and individuals with risk factors like diabetes or hypertension. Conditions such as INOCA, ANOCA, and MINOCA can cause ischemia and chest pain despite “clean” angiograms, often due to microvascular dysfunction, coronary spasms, or subtle plaque. Diagnosing these conditions requires advanced imaging or invasive studies to assess blood flow and vessel function. Treatment focuses on reducing cardiovascular risk with aspirin, statins, ACE inhibitors, or ARBs, and managing symptoms with beta-blockers or calcium channel blockers. The key takeaway: A normal angiogram doesn't rule out disease, and these patients need a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to care. Enjoy this Circulation 2022 Paths to Discovery article to learn about the CardioNerds story, mission, and values.

Pearls: When patients present with chest pain but do not have obstructive coronary artery disease, the story does not end there! Other pathologies that must be ruled out include spontaneous coronary artery disease (SCAD), coronary vasospasm, microvascular disease, Takotsubo, and cardiomyopathy. A TTE can help rule out other pathologies. Cardiac MRI can help identify myocardial fibrosis, scarring, or edema that may suggest prior events or alternative diagnoses.  About 60-70% of INOCA cases are in women. However, it is estimated that about half of the patients with so-called “normal” angiograms actually have positive stress tests. Patients with elevated troponins are more likely to have recurrent events. Patients with INOCA are more likely to come back to the ER multiple times before getting diagnosed. These patients have a 1.4x increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events (such as HFpEF, MI, and recurrent hospitalizations for cardiac chest pain).  INOCA is a complex condition with a variety of causes, primarily linked to microvascular disease. Within microvascular disease, there are different “endotypes” (types or subcategories) classified by specific characteristics. In centers that conduct microvascular testing, patients are categorized as endothelium-independent or endothelium-dependent, based on their responses to adenosine or acetylcholine during testing. Additionally, microvascular disease can be classified as either structural or functional, depending on the results of tests measuring microvascular resistance. The field is moving towards the term ANOCA, or angina with non-obstructive coronary arteries, to include patients with anginal symptoms without objective ischemia.  The field is moving toward using genotyping and hemodynamic testing to guide first-line therapies for microvascular disease, a heterogeneous condition. Current treatments mostly come from obstructive coronary artery disease, but specialized approaches—like the coronary sinus reducer—may offer unique benefits for microvascular disease. Treatment includes sublingual nitroglycerin, ACE inhibitors/ARBs, and beta-blockers. Remember to also treat any additional comorbidities, such as diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. Unfortunately, many of these patients may still have refractory chest pain, so it is important to reassure them. These patients can still exercise, but they may be hesitant to do so for fear of having chest pain. Cardiac rehab may be helpful for these patients as it helps them build up their tolerance.

In this episode of the HVAC Know It All Podcast, host Gary McCreadie talks with Jamie Kitchen, an HVAC expert, Training and Account Manager at Danfoss about how metering devices control refrigerant flow in cooling and refrigeration systems. Jamie explains how simple restrictions like cap tubes and orifices work, then breaks down how an automatic expansion valve (AXV) holds a steady evaporator temperature and pressure for ice shavers and frozen drink machines. The conversation explores how thermostatic expansion valves (TXV) adapt to changing loads, how the sensing bulb and superheat spring balance each other, and internal versus external equalized valves. Gary and Jamie also discuss why a refrigerant distributor needs an external equalized valve, a service call on a stuck TXV at a restaurant rooftop unit, and how mentorship helps new technicians learn what textbooks miss. Gary and Jamie discuss how different metering devices control refrigerant flow in cooling and refrigeration systems. Jamie explains how simple restrictions like cap tubes and orifices create a pressure drop, and how an automatic expansion valve holds a steady evaporator temperature and pressure for ice shavers and frozen drink machines. The conversation covers thermostatic expansion valves, how the sensing bulb and superheat spring work together, how superheat is adjusted, and the difference between internal and external equalized valves. They also talk about why a refrigerant distributor needs an external equalized valve, a real service call on a stuck TXV, and how sharing field knowledge and mentorship helps newer technicians.  Expect to Learn: How AI can help HVAC and home service businesses automate repetitive daily tasks.

Rather than relying on pressure or incentives alone, Gerry shares a practical system that turns daily performance into a shared game built around visibility, ownership, and teamwork.What You'll LearnWhy diagnosing the real business problem is more important than applying quick fixes.How visible scoreboards create accountability and keep the entire team focused on shared goals.Why technicians and service advisors should update their own scores instead of management.Which key performance indicators matter most, including car count, billable hours, margins, and hours presented.Why aligning the front and back of the shop creates stronger teamwork and better customer outcomes.How storytelling helps employees understand the importance behind the numbers.A leadership approach that improves performance by focusing on results instead of criticizing people.Gamification isn't about making work feel like a game, it's about giving every employee clear goals, measurable results, and ownership of their performance. When leaders diagnose problems correctly, track meaningful metrics, and connect the numbers to a larger purpose, they create a culture where accountability, engagement, and profitability naturally grow.

In this episode, Mark and Emily kick off a brand new series called Since We Tolerate, a look at the "respectable sins" Christians often overlook or excuse. They start with one of the most culturally relevant: judgment. Drawing from Romans 14, Mark unpacks how Christians can fall into a pattern of casting judgment on brothers and sisters in areas where scripture doesn't demand a single answer, and what it looks like to pursue edifying love instead.Episode Highlights00:34 — Introducing the new series: Since We Tolerate and the idea of "respectable sins"01:13 — Why Christians often tackle the obvious sins but miss the subtle ones01:57 — The framework for the series: a four-part process for killing sin03:26 — Defining the process: remember the gospel, remember your identity, starve the sin, feed the spirit05:13 — Introducing the sin of judgment and its grounding in Romans 1406:12 — The Jewish-Gentile tension in the early church as the original context for Romans 1408:10 — What makes a matter "gray" — and why gray doesn't mean unimportant10:26 — Judgementalism as a "crowning vice of modernity," amplified by social media and cable news13:33 — When judgment is right: distinguishing disputed matters from clear biblical teaching17:00 — Diagnosing a judgmental heart: the BAM vs. WAM test (Best Available Motive vs. Worst Available Motive)21:28 — Practical steps to starve the sin: study it, hate it, flee it, confess it27:00 — Feeding the spirit: cultivating edifying love as the antidote to judgment30:34 — A preview of the next episode: gluttonyResourcesRespectable Sins by Jerry Bridges: PurchaseCornerstone Sermons: Listen OnlineAsk Mark a Question!Suggest a topic or question for Mark to discuss on a future episode of the Equip Podcast!
