In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ sits down with Micah Remley, CEO of Robin Powered, to discuss the challenges and opportunities of hybrid work. They explore how data-driven approaches can transform workplace culture, boost productivity, and help companies thrive in a post-pandemic world where flexibility and connection are more important than ever. Key Takeaways: [2:06] Hybrid work is here to stay, but a one-size-fits-all solution doesn't work—companies must use data to create meaningful in-person experiences. [6:53] Culture is the tie that binds organizations; remote and hybrid work have made it harder to maintain, but it's essential for long-term success. [17:19] Proximity to high performers in the office can boost individual performance by 15% due to emulation and peer pressure. [22:05] Flexible, unstructured hybrid models often fail—coordinated team days and intentional office use are key to making hybrid work successful.

In this episode of The OnBase Podcast, host Chris Moody dives deep with Vincent DeCastro to unpack one of the most dramatic shifts in marketing history: the rise of zero-click search and AI-driven buyer journeys.They explore how generative AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude are transforming how buyers discover and evaluate solutions, often without ever visiting a brand's website. Vincent shares how this new reality is disrupting search, reshaping ABM, and forcing marketers to collapse silos between brand, demand, and content functions to stay relevant.From the death of traditional SEO to the new rules of visibility in the age of AI, this episode offers a masterclass on how marketers must evolve to survive and thrive in a post-click world.Key TakeawaysZero-Click Search Has Changed the GameGenerative AI is now giving users answers directly in the results — before they ever reach your site. That means impressions go up while clicks go down, creating a new paradox that marketers must understand and address.Content Is Now for Machines and HumansYour website is no longer just for prospects. It's for LLMs to read, parse, and summarize. Structuring your content for AI consumption is the new SEO.Break Down the SilosBrand, content, demand gen, and ABM can't operate independently anymore. AI interprets your business holistically — your teams must do the same.LLM Optimization Is the New SEOTechnical readiness is step one. Run audits to ensure your site can be crawled by AI tools, update evergreen content regularly, and monitor how your brand is being summarized by these new “AI engines.”The Future of Search Is Paid, Personalized, and Platform-BasedGenerative platforms like ChatGPT will soon monetize results the way Google did with ads — but based on personalized prompts, not keywords. Brands must adapt early.QuotesZero-click search isn't killing Google — it's redefining it.Tech recommendationsScreaming Frog - For analyzing log files and ensuring your site is AI-crawl readyAbout the GuestVincent DeCastro is the Founder and CEO of ABM Agency, a B2B marketing leader that's been reshaping account-based marketing since 2009.

Neal Shah's journey, showcases the impact of caregiving on individual lives and the broader healthcare system. Raised in a close-knit immigrant family, Neal's values were shaped early by the examples set by his parents and grandparents. After building an impressive career in finance, a series of personal experiences as a caregiver—first supporting his grandfather through end-of-life care, then facing his wife's severe illness—transformed his outlook and priorities. He became intimately aware of both the emotional toll and practical challenges caregivers face and the systemic flaws that make caregiving in America so difficult.These experiences motivated Neal to leave his high-powered finance career to focus on creating social impact. He founded Carry Ya, a not-for-profit project that connects families in need with qualified, motivated student caregivers at affordable rates, disrupting the expensive, often impersonal agency model. Neal is also the author of the book "Insured to Death," which exposes the failures of the American health insurance system, and he launched Counterforce Health, an AI-powered platform that empowers patients and caregivers to fight insurance denials. Neal's innovative, empathetic responses to systemic challenges underline his commitment to honoring caregivers as the backbone of the healthcare system and ensuring that their support, as well as that of care recipients, is financially and emotionally sustainable.About Neal:America's Chief Elder Officer. CEO of CareYaya Health Technologies and Chairman of Counterforce Health. Working hard to improve healthcare. Author of #1 Bestseller in Health Policy, "Insured to Death: How Health Insurance Screws Over Americans - And How We Take It Back".

What does it really take to “disrupt divorce”? In this episode, Rhonda sits down with Jordan Rosenberg, a family law attorney from the Chicago area who believes the attorney–client relationship should be a true partnership — built on open communication, trust, and collaboration. Together, they pull back the curtain on what most attorneys wish their clients knew and how women can take a more empowered role in the process. You'll hear insights on: Why viewing your lawyer as a partner — not just a service provider — changes everything The power of organization (and how small clues, like a $5 savings account, can reveal much bigger financial issues) Why “the smartest people know when to ask for help” — and how that applies directly to divorce The importance of building the right team: legal, financial, and emotional support How to set realistic expectations — without slipping into worst-case-scenario thinking Why “trusting the process” doesn't mean handing over control, but staying actively engaged Jordan also shares one of his favorite quotes that perfectly fits this stage of life: FEAR = Forget Everything And Run, or Face Everything And Rise. This episode is packed with both practical tools and encouragement for anyone navigating the complexities of divorce.

They dive deep into the challenges and innovations in data storage and memory for AI workloads, discuss the hidden costs of data center inefficiency, and explore how ScaleFlux is disrupting the industry with advanced flash storage solutions. JB also shares insights from his endurance athlete mindset and offers advice for innovators.

Hidden Costs in Data Centers (7:12) Up to 40% of data center power is spent on cooling, not processing, leading to massive inefficiencies and costs. ScaleFlux’s Disruptive Solution (15:38) ScaleFlux’s custom SSD controllers enable real-time data compression in hardware, doubling performance and reducing costs for enterprises. Endurance Mindset in Business (23:18) JB applies lessons from endurance sports to business, emphasizing persistence and continuous improvement as keys to innovation.

Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Jason Ackerman, the hardest part of growing a small business is scaling while staying focused. He highlights the struggle of balancing growth with stability and managing limited cash flow. Finding and keeping the right team members who share the vision is another major challenge. He also stresses the need to adapt quickly to disruptions in fast-changing industries. Overall, sustaining growth without losing direction is the toughest hurdle for entrepreneurs. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Jason Ackerman has mentioned that one of the books that helped him the most is “The Manual” by Epictetus. Even though it isn't a traditional business book, he considers it powerful because its lessons on discipline, perspective, and resilience apply directly to entrepreneurship and leadership. The timeless wisdom in it helped him stay grounded while navigating the uncertainty and challenges of building and scaling a business. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Jason Ackerman recommends several great resources for entrepreneurs looking to grow a small business. His own show, Best Hour of Their Day, dives into leadership, fitness business, and growth strategies. He has also appeared on Two-Brain Radio and the Grow Your Nutrition Business Podcast, where he shares lessons on scaling, coaching, and avoiding common mistakes. For finance and compliance insights, his appearance on The Bandit Room (“A Lot of Letters with CPA Jason Ackerman”) is also valuable. Together, these podcasts offer practical advice on leadership, scaling, and financial management for small business owners. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Jason Ackerman often stresses the importance of tools that streamline growth, and one he'd recommend is a CRM system to manage customer relationships effectively. A CRM helps track leads, follow-ups, and client interactions, preventing missed opportunities. Alongside this, he highlights the value of consistent content and marketing, supported by scheduling tools like Buffer or Hootsuite. Automation platforms such as Zapier can further save time by handling repetitive tasks. Together, these resources free business owners to focus on strategy, scaling, and customer satisfaction. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Jason Ackerman's advice to his younger self on day one of starting a business would be to focus on the long game and not chase perfection right away. He often emphasizes that mistakes are part of the process, and instead of fearing them, new entrepreneurs should learn quickly and adapt. He would remind himself to surround his journey with the right people—mentors, partners, and team members who share the vision and values. He also stresses the importance of patience, since success rarely comes overnight, and consistency matters more than quick wins. Most importantly, he'd tell himself to stay true to his mission and not get distracted by comparisons or trends that don't align with the bigger picture.

https://teachhoops.com/ In the landscape of modern basketball, successfully defending the ball screen is the bedrock of any elite defensive unit. The pick-and-roll is no longer just a play; it's the engine of most offensive systems, designed to create mismatches, force defensive rotations, and generate open shots. Therefore, a team's approach to defending it cannot be passive or improvised. It requires a clear, well-communicated strategy that all five players on the floor understand and can execute in unison. The initial action between the on-ball defender and the screener's defender is just the beginning; the true test lies in the disciplined rotations of the three help-side defenders who must anticipate the pass, tag the roller, and close out on shooters, turning a moment of offensive advantage into a defensive stop. Developing a robust ball-screen defense involves mastering multiple coverages and knowing when to deploy them. The specific scheme—whether it's a hard Hedge to temporarily trap the ball handler, a conservative Drop coverage where the big man protects the paint, an aggressive Switch to neutralize the initial action, or an Ice/Blue to force the play to the sideline—is dictated by several factors. A coaching staff must analyze the opponent's personnel (Is the ball handler a shooter or a driver? Can the screener "pop" for a three or only "roll" to the rim?), the position of the screen on the floor, and the time remaining on the shot clock. Building this defensive versatility requires countless repetitions in practice, ensuring that players can seamlessly communicate and execute the correct coverage call, transforming what could be a defensive liability into a predictable and manageable offensive attack.

Grant and Erin Stahler are the inspiring husband-and-wife co-founders of Stahler Services, a premium restroom and shower trailer rental company. Starting with a single trailer after college, they have disrupted a traditional industry by providing hospitality-level service and a product often described as a "hotel bathroom on wheels." Guided by their values and a passion for entrepreneurship, they've grown their family-run business across multiple states. The Stahlers are also the creators of Stahler Leads, an innovative online marketplace designed to help other vendors in the sanitation space grow their businesses by connecting them with qualified customers.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode, host Jonathan Goldhill chats with Grant and Erin Stahler about their incredible journey of transforming the portable sanitation industry. Grant shares the origin story of starting the business right out of college and how he and Erin joined forces to scale it with a commitment to quality and service. We explore how they innovated a commodity product into a premium experience, the systems they've used to scale effectively, and the genesis of their second company, Stahler Leads. Grant and Erin also offer an open and honest look at the dynamics of running a business as a married couple and how their faith serves as the foundational core for their leadership, culture, and life balance.KEY TAKEAWAYSInnovating a Commodity: The Stahlers elevated the standard porta-potty into a premium experience with amenities like flushing toilets, running hot water, A/C, heating, and Bluetooth sound systems, effectively creating a new market category.Values-Driven Leadership: Their faith is the "core of everything." They strive to run their business "like Jesus would," which informs everything from their company culture and customer service to maintaining perspective and life balance.The Dynamics of a Couple in Business: Erin shares that success as a married couple in business requires acknowledging the ups and downs, communicating openly, and finding a flexible balance that works for them, rather than enforcing rigid rules.From Internal Problem to New Venture: After spending over a million dollars on Google Ads and finding most leads were outside their service area, they created Stahler Leads—a marketplace to sell those leads to other vendors, turning a marketing challenge into a new revenue stream.Building to Sell, But Inspired to Hold: While they use the "build to sell" framework to ensure the business is systemized and valuable, their true inspiration comes from legacy companies like Chick-fil-A, focusing on long-term growth and value creation over decades.Scaling with Intention: The Stahlers have intentionally scaled using systems like the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), software like HubSpot and Smartsheets, and a commitment to embedding their core values across all locations to maintain quality and culture.QUOTES"We really want to be that rising tide that lifts all ships within our industry.""We want to do this business like Jesus would. So we want to own it like Jesus would and just manage like Jesus would.""Anything that you do, there's going to be some low moments and some hard things that you're gonna have to talk through, whether that's like purely a coworker or a coworker who happens to be your spouse.""If we're gonna have a business, we wanna do it right and we wanna keep building it.""Such a basic thing. But also it, it's so different than the standard plastic porta-potty."Connect and learn more about Grant & Erin Stahler:Grant Stahler's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/grant-stahla/ Erin Stahler's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erinstahla/If you enjoyed today's episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.

I sit down with author Jen Thompson to discuss her book "Return to Jesus: An Invitation to Abide with Him in Every Beautiful, Stressful or Tedious Moment." This conversation is for every woman who feels overcommitted before her feet hit the floor in the morning.Jen opens up about what prompted her to write the book... that post-pandemic season when life went from zero to 100 mph and she desperately wanted to carry the lessons of stillness into the chaos. We dive into what it really means to abide with Jesus throughout ordinary, overwhelming, and mundane moments rather than compartmentalizing our faith into just the "holy" parts of life.The heart of our conversation tackles the plague of overcommitment that so many women face. Jen shares practical wisdom about taking your calendar before the Lord, learning to say no without explanation, and why scheduling "no plans days" might be the most counter-cultural thing you can do. We explore why our worth often gets tangled up in our productivity and how saying yes to everything might be robbing someone else of their opportunity to serve. Jen vulnerably shares about her own struggle with shame and how Jesus meets us exactly where we are - no cleaning up required. We discuss why the voices telling us to get ourselves together before coming to God sound nothing like how our Father actually speaks to us.Whether you're drowning in expectations, numb with busyness, or simply trying to figure out how to meet with Jesus in your current season of life, this conversation offers hope, practical tools, and the reminder that you are seen, loved, and held by God in every moment.Chapters00:00 | Introduction and the Cost of Writing02:59 | The Heart Behind 'Return to Jesus'06:02 | Abiding in Busy Seasons of Life12:33 | Navigating Overcommitment and Saying No18:44 | Meeting Jesus in Ordinary Moments22:07 | The Impact of Shame on Our Relationship with God26:39 | Disrupting Patterns for an Eternal Perspective27:23 | Disrupting the Mundane: Finding Spiritual Rhythms30:40 | Seasons of Restoration: God's Work in Our Lives37:03 | Recognizing and Embracing Life's Seasons40:47 | An Invitation to Grace: You Are Seen and Loved44:01 | Designing Your Perfect Day: A Reflection on JoyJen's Website: http://www.jenthompsonauthor.comJen's Blog: http://www.trulyyoursjen.comJen's Facebook: facebook.com/trulyyoursjenJen's Instagram: instagram.com/trulyyoursjenJen's Podcast: https://jenthompsonauthor.com/the-podcastJen's Book: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/747877/return-to-jesus-by-jen-thompson/

Fueled by a mission to improve gut health without sacrificing flavor, Mike and his co-founder set out to reimagine iced tea for today's health-conscious consumer. Mike opens up about the brand's early missteps, and why putting flavor first became a non-negotiable product principle. He also shares how Halfday secured coveted shelf space at Whole Foods, partnered with one of New York City's most influential distributors, and how a last-minute decision to attend BevNET Live led to a major investment that helped propel the business forward.

He reflects on the ups and downs of entrepreneurship, including doubts about scalability, the challenges of fundraising, and the importance of trusting the process.  Brands in this episode: Halfday, Three Wishes, Snapple, Olipop, Liquid Death, Bai, C4 Energy

At the Universidad de la Libertad in Mexico City, Matt Kibbe sat down with Pano Kanelos, chancellor of the University of Austin, to talk about how higher education has gone wrong and what can be done to fix it. In the wake of the horrific murder of Charlie Kirk on a college campus, the fact that universities have become increasingly hostile to open discourse and the pursuit of truth has become more obvious than ever. Ideologically driven curricula, combined with rising costs and the student debt crisis, have made higher education a less appealing prospect, which is a shame when you consider that the purpose of universities was always supposed to be the expansion of human knowledge, not just preparing students for the job market.

What happens when you stop chasing returns and start investing in purpose?Ron Diamond, Founder and Chairman of Diamond Wealth, believes the future of finance isn't just about building wealth—it's about what that wealth can do. As a trusted advisor to over 100 family offices ranging from $250 million to $30 billion, Ron has spent more than two decades helping ultra-wealthy families align their capital with causes that matter.In this episode, Ron shares how the collapse of Drexel Burnham shaped his perspective on loyalty, legacy, and leadership—and why “patient capital” is poised to disrupt the short-termism of private equity. We explore how purpose-driven investing is solving real-world challenges, from cancer to climate, and what it takes to build sustainable family office infrastructure in an era of unprecedented generational wealth transfer.And the timing couldn't be more relevant: family offices are no longer niche players. The number of single-family offices has surged 31% since 2019, with projections reaching over 10,700 globally by 2030. As trillions of dollars transition to the next generation, Ron offers a front-row seat to the values, strategies, and systems needed to steward that wealth wisely.Ron is also the Founder, Host, and CEO of Family Office World Media, and helped establish the Family Office Program for TIGER 21, where he chairs a national peer group. He lectures at Oxford, Stanford, Harvard, and the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, and was recently appointed Editor-in-Chief of The National Law Review's first Family Office newsletter. A LinkedIn Top Voice, TEDx speaker, and former hedge fund founder, Ron began his career on Wall Street at Bear Stearns and Drexel Burnham.Key TakeawaysPeople Over Companies: Ron's experience during Drexel's collapse taught him that relationships—not institutions—are what endure.Patient Capital Is a Game-Changer: Family offices can think in decades, not quarters, offering strategic advantage over traditional funds.Purpose Before Profit: Legacy and social impact must anchor investment decisions.Professionalization Is Essential: Governance, infrastructure, and talent are what turn capital into capability.The Ego Barrier: Great wealth doesn't guarantee great management—humility is crucial for longevity.Five Core Principles from Ron Diamond1. Guiding North Star: Profit with PurposeAnchor investments in something bigger than financial return—personal mission, legacy, or societal impact. → Tip: Define your North Star early and align capital accordingly.2. Trust & Relationships FirstBack character over credentials. Trust and personal integrity build more resilient partnerships than models or metrics. → Tip: Focus on people, not pitch decks.3. Patient, Long-Term CapitalThink in decades, not exit cycles. Family offices can outperform by holding steady and avoiding short-termism. → Tip: Let compounding do the heavy lifting.4. Professionalizing Family OfficesFamily offices must evolve beyond legacy systems—invest in governance, talent, and infrastructure like any top-tier fund. → Tip: Treat talent as a profit center, not a cost.5. Entrepreneurial PhilanthropyDeploy strategic, venture-style capital into social challenges. Purpose and profit can—and should—coexist. → Tip: Apply the same rigor to social impact as you do to your investments.Episode Highlights00:00 – Episode...
