Contractor Success Map with Randal DeHart | Contractor Bookkeeping And Accounting Services
This Podcast Is Episode 646, And It's About Insights For Small Construction Business Owners Post-Disruption The past few years have been challenging for small business owners everywhere. For contractors, the global disruptions—pandemic shutdowns, supply chain bottlenecks, labor shortages, and inflation—hit especially hard. Projects were delayed, material costs spiked overnight, and cash flow felt like a rollercoaster. If you're a small construction business owner, you've lived through it. And while it's been painful, it's also been a powerful teacher. As construction bookkeeping specialists, we've had front-row seats to see how disruptions shook contractors and what strategies helped them survive—or even thrive—despite the chaos. Here are the key lessons learned from global disruption that every small contractor should carry forward. 1. Cash Flow is King When the world turned upside down, it wasn't just about profits on paper—it was about cash in the bank. Contractors who had substantial cash reserves or disciplined systems for separating money (using methods like Profit First) were able to weather late client payments, supply delays, and unexpected expenses. Those who ran lean with no buffer struggled the most. Many relied on credit cards, lines of credit, or personal savings to keep projects moving. Lesson: Always budget with a cushion. Build a reserve fund equal to at least two to three months of operating expenses. Cash flow isn't a luxury—it's survival. 2. Material pricing can change overnight Lumber tripled in price. The costs of concrete, steel, and copper spiked. Even basic items like drywall screws saw shortages. For contractors who bid on jobs months in advance, these increases wiped out their profit margins. The most resilient contractors learned to: Add price escalation clauses in contracts. Limit the validity period of an estimate. Communicate openly with clients about material volatility. Lesson: Build flexibility into your pricing. Protect yourself in writing from market swings you can't control. 3. Diversification builds stability Some contractors relied heavily on one type of work, such as extensive remodels or commercial tenant improvements. When those markets slowed during lockdowns, their revenue disappeared. Others had more diversified income streams—such as small service calls, maintenance contracts, consulting work, or digital products—and were able to pivot. Lesson: Don't rely on one type of project or client. Diversify your work mix so when one stream slows, another sustains you. 4. Relationships matter more than ever When suppliers had limited stock, who got the materials first? The contractors have strong, long-standing relationships. When crews were in short supply, which subs stuck around? The ones treated fairly, paid promptly, and respected. Lesson: Invest in your relationships. Pay suppliers and subs on time. Be transparent with clients. In times of disruption, trust and loyalty can save your business. 5. Technology isn't optional anymore The pandemic accelerated the adoption of technology across the industry. Contractors who relied only on paper receipts, hand-written invoices, or in-person meetings found themselves at a standstill. Those using cloud-based bookkeeping, project management apps, digital invoicing, and video calls continued to move forward. Lesson: Adopt technology before you “need” it. Utilize digital systems for bookkeeping, estimating, contract management, and communication. It's not about replacing personal touch—it's about being adaptable when disruptions happen. 6. Lean teams are resilient teams Many small contractors discovered they were carrying extra overhead—unused office space, underutilized vehicles, or administrative costs that didn't directly produce profit. During global disruption, reducing the crew to essentials, subs, and systems made survival possible. Lesson: Know your actual costs and eliminate waste. A lean operation is easier to sustain through downturns and easier to scale when demand returns. 7. Communication is your strongest tool One of the biggest frustrations during disruption was uncertainty. Clients wanted updates. Subs wanted to know if they'd be paid. Suppliers were vague about delivery dates. Contractors who communicated clearly—even if the news wasn't good—earned respect. Those who stayed silent or overpromised quickly lost trust. Lesson: Make communication a priority. Share updates often and honestly. It builds confidence, even when circumstances aren't ideal. 8. Mental health and burnout are real Global disruption didn't just strain finances—it strained people. Many contractors burned out from trying to keep jobs going under impossible conditions. Some worked longer hours to break even. Those who emerged stronger learned to set boundaries, delegate, and take care of themselves as much as they did their businesses. Lesson: You can't build a sustainable business if you're running on empty. Take time to recharge. A healthy owner leads a wholesome company. 9. Long-term planning beats short-term panic Disruption exposed those who were running their business reactively and those who had systems in place for long-term stability. Contractors with business plans, financial tracking, and clear goals were able to make adjustments without losing direction. Those who made decisions only in the heat of crisis often compounded their problems. Lesson: Develop a Long-Term Strategy for Your Business. Even if the world shifts, you'll have a framework to guide your choices. 10. Adaptability is a competitive advantage Perhaps the biggest lesson? The contractors who survived weren't always the strongest or the biggest—they were the most adaptable. They adopted new ways of working, revised their bidding process, experimented with various marketing approaches, and weren't afraid to adapt their business model. Lesson: Stay flexible. The ability to pivot quickly is more valuable than size or experience. Final thoughts Global disruption has left scars on the construction industry, but it has also left lessons that we can't ignore. For small contractors, the takeaway is clear: Protect your cash flow. Write airtight contracts. Diversify your work. Invest in relationships and technology. Prioritize communication and your own well-being. Disruptions may come again—whether global or local. But the lessons you've learned now can make your business stronger, more resilient, and more profitable in the long run.

In the 2010s Putin's Russia was quick to realise the potential of disinformation to undermine its enemies in the West. A complex ecosystem including now-banned propaganda TV station RT and troll factories like the Internet Research Agency used social media to sow distrust, spread fake news, distort elections and encourage a cynical culture of politicised snark. But according to Dr Precious Chatterje-Doody, co-author of Russia, Disinformation and the Liberal Order: RT as Populist Pariah, Russia's information polluters aren't as effective as we might think. “The broader problem is the sickness of our media environment,” she tells Alex von Tunzelmann – and the remedy is in our own hands. • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • Head to nakedwines.co.uk/thebunker to get 6 top-rated wines from our sponsor Naked Wines for £39.99, delivery included. • We are sponsored by Indeed.

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ interviews JB Baker, VP of Marketing and Product Management at ScaleFlux. 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. Key Takeaways: The Data Bottleneck in AI (2:01) The biggest challenge in AI infrastructure is not processing power, but storage and memory that can't keep up with demand. 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. Quote of the Show (3:41):"Those cores can process so much more data per second and so much more data per watt. But when the entire infrastructure isn't balanced, you're losing out on these efficiencies. And so there it is, creating hidden costs." — JB Baker Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Artificial intelligence is reshaping the technology services landscape, with leading reports from IDC, Gartner, and new offerings from ServiceNow pointing to a future where managing AI sprawl becomes as critical as delivering AI capabilities themselves. High-performing channel partners are leaning into AI specialization, driving measurable outcomes for customers and fueling double-digit growth despite market pressures. At the same time, ServiceNow's “AI Experience” platform aims to consolidate fragmented AI tools, offering a unified interface that can streamline operations and reduce complexity. The broader market, according to Gartner, is accelerating rapidly, with spending on generative AI projected to surpass traditional software in the coming years—meaning providers who fail to deliver outcomes risk being left behind.Yet the rise of AI isn't all progress. Studies from Stanford, European labor groups, and cybersecurity organizations reveal a governance crisis brewing in workplaces. Workers are reporting a surge of “workslop”—AI-generated content that looks like productivity but creates no value—costing companies billions. Algorithmic management is eroding worker autonomy, while surveillance and data risks undermine trust in employers. To compound the problem, employees are increasingly feeding sensitive data into AI systems without adequate training, raising new security vulnerabilities. These trends highlight the urgent need for policies, training, and governance frameworks to ensure AI adds value instead of chaos.The disruption is also spilling into specific industries. In translation, human professionals are already being displaced as AI-driven tools gain adoption. WhatsApp's newly built-in translation capability demonstrates how “good enough” AI can be enough for most users, sidelining human expertise except in fields requiring deep cultural or contextual understanding. The translation sector serves as an early warning sign: as AI grows more capable, other professions—including legal research, finance, and customer support—face similar pressures. The lesson for providers is to help clients identify where AI is appropriate and where human oversight remains essential.Meanwhile, major vendors are steadily encroaching into IT services, redrawing the lines of what MSPs can offer. Acronis is embedding patch management into its backup suite, Slack is introducing AI-powered ticket deflection, GoTo and Nexthink are fusing support and analytics, and IBM is shifting developer tooling to its hosted cloud. Each move chips away at traditional MSP offerings, putting pressure on providers to adapt. The opportunity lies in integration and governance—helping customers unify fragmented tools, ensure compliance, and deliver outcomes that vendors alone cannot. For MSPs, the message is clear: evolve toward higher-value services, or risk being sidelined by the very vendors you once partnered with.Four things to know today00:00 From Growth to Governance: IDC, Gartner, and ServiceNow Show Where AI Is Headed for Partners and Customers05:07 AI at Work: “Workslop,” Surveillance, and Data Leaks Signal Rising Governance Crisis08:42 From WhatsApp to Workflows: AI Translation Disruption Signals Broader Job Shifts Ahead11:33 Vendors Expand Into IT Services: Acronis, Slack, IBM, and GoTo Redraw the MSP Value Line This is the Business of Tech.

“People are not going to be surprised by a strong third quarter,” Shelly Antoniewicz says, but “going forward could be a different picture.” She gives her take on the economic impact of the government shutdown, including a hit to GDP and the “twist” of potential mass firings. Shelly also talks about what's next for the Fed as economic data gets scrambled. However, unless there's a “severe shock,” she doesn't expect recession.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Martin Reeves has spent decades advising CEOs on how to think about strategy. As head of BCG's Henderson Institute, he has built a career challenging leaders to balance efficiency with imagination and to prepare for the next disruptive shift.In this conversation, Martin tells Henrik and Jeremy why AI alone will not give companies an edge and might even strip them of advantage. He unpacks the “two jobs of business”: playing the current game better than anyone else while simultaneously asking what the next game will be. He argues that AI only sharpens this paradox, forcing leaders to think faster, experiment more, and draw on human imagination in new ways.The discussion covers the risks of over-optimization, the future of consulting, and the paradoxes of AI adoption. Along the way, Reeves explains how AI can accelerate exploration, why framing the right questions is the strategist's most important job, and why times of disruption are when number twos become number ones or disappear altogether.Key Takeaways: Strategy is the double gameLong-term success means playing today's game efficiently while also inventing tomorrow's. Henrik and Jeremy stress how rare it is for leaders to do both, yet this is exactly what AI demands.AI efficiency without imagination is a trapAdopting the same tools as competitors drives efficiency but commoditizes advantage. The hosts underline that imagination and unique use are what create real differentiation.The strategist's edge is asking the right questionMartin highlights that strategy starts with framing the real question. Henrik and Jeremy note that questioning and cognitive diversity are crucial in the AI era.Disruption reshuffles winners and losersTimes of change are when number twos become number ones and leaders disappear. The wrap-up emphasizes the urgency of experimenting and adapting now.Human imagination stays essentialAI can accelerate exploration, but creativity, ethics, and originality remain uniquely human — and decisive for future leadership.LinkedIn: Martin Reeves | LinkedInBCG Henderson Institute: Home - BCG Henderson InstituteMartins books: The Imagination Machine // Like: The Button That Changed the World00:00 Intro: Two Jobs in Strategy, Today's Game and Tomorrow's Game01:33 Martin Reeves and the Henderson Institute04:02 Defining Strategy in the AI Era05:12 AI and Human Imagination09:20 Efficiency vs. Competitive Advantage13:18 Organizational Design for the Future23:09 The Paradox of Imagination in Business33:02 Harnessing Serendipity for Innovation35:18 Devil's Advocacy and Meeting Optimization36:51 Where AI Helps and Hurts Organizations38:16 The Limits of AI Training Data42:56 How Martin Uses AI Day to Day47:09 What's the Next Game for Consulting53:15 Final Reflections
Hello and welcome to the A&F podcast. Over the coming episodes we're focusing our gaze on the issue of adoption disruption. It's a hugely sensitive subject matter and we've talked to a range of people and professionals impacted by it, we haven't spoken to children or adult adoptees. That's more a reflection on our network not a policy decision. Here I speak to solicitor Nigel Priestley from Ridley and Hall, he is an adoptive parent and has focused his work on supporting adoptive parents navigate what can be a very challenging process when children can no longer live at home. It is to hard listen to the challenges families face and Nigel offers insight as to the impact on them and the difficulties that they face. As always if you've experience of adoption, fostering or special guardianship from any perspective personal or professional and would like share that on the podcast please get in touch through the Facebook page, BlueSky or email us at AandFpodcast@gmail.com Listen/subscribe on iTunes here Spotify here
Impending Shutdown: The country is only “hours away” from a government shutdown, Partisan Blame: The responsibility for the shutdown is Democrats, particularly Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Republican Positioning: Republicans, including Donald Trump, Speaker Johnson, JD Vance, Tom Cotton, and John Thune, are portrayed as wanting a “clean funding extension” (a short-term budget measure) to keep the government open. Democratic Hypocrisy: The commentary highlights past Democratic statements opposing shutdowns, contrasting them with current positions to claim inconsistency. Accusations of Radicalism: Democrats are described as pushing a $1.5 trillion spending package that allegedly includes: Free healthcare for undocumented immigrants Funding for gender-affirming surgeries Open borders and Medicaid fraud Other “radical left” priorities Political Motivation: A recurring argument is that Schumer is resisting compromise to protect himself from a potential primary challenge by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Consequences of Shutdown The episode also notes practical impacts of a shutdown, such as: Federal employees furloughed or unpaid Disruptions for TSA officers, military families, firefighters, veterans, and prison guards Delays in Social Security, SNAP, and WIC benefits Risks to disaster relief and FEMA funding Potential harm to the economy, including billions in costs and possible credit rating downgrades Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

This special 5th anniversary episode of the Remarkable Retail podcast marks a milestone: five years of insights, disruption, and conversations with the world's most innovative retail thinkers. We reflect on the pod's origin story during the early COVID lockdowns, tracing its evolution from Steve's book Remarkable Retail: How to Win & Keep Customers in the Age of Disruption into an industry-leading show featuring CEOs, founders, and thought leaders shaping global commerce. They share highlights from an impressive guest roster, including Scott Galloway (whose episode remains the most downloaded in the show's history), Artemis Patrick of Sephora, Hal Lawton of Tractor Supply, Chris Nicholas of Sam's Club, Joe Kudla of Vuori, and Neil Blumenthal of Warby Parker. Each clip showcases the powerful themes of customer centricity, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of remarkability.The centerpiece of the episode is a deep and engaging conversation with Seth Godin, returning for his sixth visit. Seth—bestselling author of classics including Purple Cow—first inspired the very language of “remarkability” in Steve's book and the podcast itself. Here, Seth reflects on why being remarkable matters more than ever in an era where “average is dead.” He warns leaders that chasing efficiency or “suck less” strategies won't suffice; brands must create conditions where customers want to talk about them. He draws a sharp distinction between simply being “better” through incremental improvements and being truly remarkable in ways that spark conversation, loyalty, and cultural resonance.Seth also delves into the impact of AI as the biggest societal shift since electricity. Rather than reducing costs by outsourcing tasks, he urges retailers to harness AI to enable new projects and creative possibilities. He illustrates this with his latest Kickstarter project—AI-driven card decks designed to spark learning, decision-making, and storytelling. For Seth, experimentation and accessible tools are the gateway to innovation, and he emphasizes that risk-taking in the AI era costs little but delivers exponential learning.Together, Michael, Steve, and Seth explore enduring themes: knowing who it's for and what it's for, the value of continuous improvement, and why shunning non-believers is essential to staying authentic. About UsSteve Dennis is a strategic advisor and keynote speaker focused on growth and innovation, who has also been named one of the world's top retail influencers. He is the bestselling authro of two books: Leaders Leap: Transforming Your Company at the Speed of Disruption and Remarkable Retail: How To Win & Keep Customers in the Age of Disruption.

We are dealing with massive disruption these days in just about every aspect of work and life. As scary, uncomfortable, and even painful as it can be, there is also a great deal of opportunity for growth, innovation, and positive change baked into even the most significant disruptions. On this episode, I talk about some of what makes this so challenging. I then share specific things we can do to navigate disruption - both personally and with our teams.

September 29 is Michaelmas, a day rooted in Celtic harvest traditions that was later woven into the Christian church calendar. As we move deeper into autumn, you might already intuitively and naturally feel the invitation to release, reflect, and reckon—spiritually, emotionally, even financially. That's no coincidence. It was originally a pagan day used for settling debts, honoring harvest cycles, and marking seasonal transitions, but it became associated with the archangel Michael. Even for our ancestors, the Mabon portal continued even after the date of the official equinox. In the spirit of staying in the portal, I made you a FREE companion guide for this episode!

A Conversation with Courtney Teasley On this episode of Everyday Injustice, attorney and activist Courtney Teasley shares her journey from growing up in East Nashville during the crack epidemic to becoming what she calls a “legal disruptor.” Teasley defines this role as going beyond the bare minimum in the legal system—intervening proactively to prevent unjust outcomes before they are sealed by guilty pleas or convictions. Her story begins with personal experience. Raised by her grandmother while her mother struggled with addiction and incarceration, Teasley witnessed firsthand how the system punished users as if they were dealers. Watching her mother receive inadequate legal defense sparked her determination to become an attorney who fights differently—challenging the systemic complacency that fuels mass incarceration. Today, Teasley has expanded her work beyond the courtroom. She coaches lawyers on building independent practices, lectures on legal literacy, and organizes court watch programs. Her book series, The Easy Way to Learn Your Rights, seeks to empower families, churches, and schools to teach communities how to protect themselves against systemic abuse. “Every lawyer is not an advocate, and every advocate is not a lawyer,” she emphasizes, urging people to step into the fight for justice regardless of professional title. Throughout the conversation, Teasley underscores the urgent need for systemic change. From highlighting the low threshold for probable cause that drives mass incarceration to calling for more transparency in prosecutorial practices, her work reflects a vision of empowerment and accountability. At its core, her message is clear: building justice requires disrupting the status quo and equipping disproportionately affected communities with the knowledge and tools to defend themselves.

Welcome back to our new miniseries, Vertical SaaS: Fintech Disruption by a Thousand Cuts, sponsored by our friends at Pipe. Vertical SaaS platforms are experiencing major growth; they've become the operating system for every industry (with financial products and services baked right into workflows that SMBs already live in every day). Vertical SaaS wins because no one knows the customer better—every product decision flows from that insight. That's it. That's the secret. In Episode 2, Alex Johnson and Luke Voiles (CEO of Pipe) sit down with Bryan Solar, Chief Product Officer at SpotOn, to talk about what true customer centricity looks like in vertical SaaS. Bryan shares SpotOn's journey from loyalty platform to payments … to an all-in-one operating system for restaurants, and why being loved by a subset beats being liked by many; how obsessing over small details (like the wrong button in a bartender's workflow) can make or break a night, and when to build vs. partner in embedded finance. Plus, he shares how tools like Day Check (same-day wage access) and Profit Assist (an AI that once caught an $400-a-day cost error) can make a big impact. Restaurants run on thin margins, fragile moments, and thousands of micro-decisions — and software that's built with empathy can literally be the difference between survival and failure. Don't miss this conversation on how customer centricity, done right, becomes a right to win. And subscribe to catch future episodes. Thanks for listening! This episode was brought to you by Pipe.

Learn how to harness AI as your ultimate business accelerator and create what once seemed impossible in record time What if I told you that "super-agents" could solve your biggest business problems in 20 minutes while you sleep? Look, the AI revolution isn't coming - it's already here, and it's moving faster than most people can even comprehend. In this episode, we dive deep into the reality that everything you've ever imagined AI could do is not only possible right now, but the only limitation is your imagination and willingness to embrace these tools. We're talking about creating functional software prototypes in 20 minutes, generating professional presentations for NASA in hours instead of weeks, and literally having 10 AI "super-agents" work on your problems simultaneously. This isn't about replacing human creativity - it's about amplifying it to levels that would have been science fiction just months ago. Mike Koenigs is the Founder of The Superpower Accelerator and has transformed over 61,000 clients into "Category of One" brands that dominate their markets. This guy just got back from speaking at NASA - not about theory, but actually demonstrating solutions to their 174 biggest documented problems using AI tools most people have never heard of. He's also spoken at the United Nations, leveraging over 30 years of strategic insight to help experts become influential brand leaders. What sets Mike apart isn't just his track record of creating transformational business celebrities - it's his ability to see possibilities where others see obstacles and turn AI into a profit-multiplying superpower without diluting your essence. KEY TAKEAWAYS: AI capabilities are advancing daily - the gap between what was possible six weeks ago versus today shows exponential acceleration. "Super-agents" let you run 10 AI specialists simultaneously on the same problem instead of waiting for one solution. You can create functional software prototypes in 20 minutes without any coding experience or technical background. Master the AI mindset, not specific tools - tools change constantly but strategic thinking principles remain valuable. AI amplifies existing traits - lazy people get lazier while curious people become exponentially more effective. Future advantage belongs to those asking better questions, not those memorizing more answers. Use AI to amplify your thinking, not replace it - letting AI think for you leads to declining performance. Companies must create AI-friendly cultures now or risk losing top talent to competitors who embrace these capabilities.

Edgar Sandoval arrived in the United States with just $50 in his pocket, unable to speak English, carrying only his American passport and an unshakeable determination. Today, he leads World Vision, one of the world's largest humanitarian organizations, serving 100 countries and reaching millions of the most vulnerable children globally. From corporate boardrooms at Procter & Gamble—where he helped transform the meaning of “like a girl” from insult to compliment—to the remote villages of Kenya, Edgar's journey reveals how divine calling can redirect a comfortable life toward extraordinary purpose. His leadership has revolutionized World Vision's approach, flipping traditional sponsorship models and launching the organization's most ambitious campaign yet: reaching 300 million people by 2030. In this conversation, Edgar shares how childhood memories of poverty, corporate innovation lessons, and unwavering faith converge to create massive humanitarian impact. It's Edgar Sandoval on The Business of Giving.
A larger than initially expected supply disruption from the world's second largest copper mine, Freeport's Grasberg in Indonesia, will significantly tighten the copper market in the coming quarters and has flipped our forecasted S&D balance to deficits for this year and in 2026. Much tighter fundamentals and the draw on limited ex-US inventory flips us bullish on copper, seeing prices pushing towards $11,250/mt in the coming quarters.

Should the US put a price on H-1B visas, or would that block the flow of new talent? Are AI coding agents actually making teams way more productive, or is it just hype? And in the AI platform shift, will the big winners be incumbents or new AI-native startups?Erik Torenberg is joined by Box co-founder and CEO Aaron Levie, a16z board partner Steven Sinofsky, and a16z general partner Martin Casado to debate the biggest questions in tech. They unpack pricing vs lottery for H-1Bs and what we're actually optimizing for, why Box now ships a third of its code from AI, the shift from writing to reviewing code, and why bottom-up personal AI tools succeed where top-down “AI pilots” struggle.

In this episode, we explore the exhilarating—and sometimes terrifying—landscape of disruption with innovation expert Scott Anthony, author of Epic Disruptions. Together, we examine the rapid shifts happening across every industry and what it takes not just to survive, but to lead through change with courage and creativity.We discuss why disruption is as much about human behavior as it is about technology, and highlight the critical missteps leaders make when they listen only to their best customers. Scott shares stories from history, from the early days of the printing press to the dawn of the iPhone, revealing the hidden patterns of how real innovation emerges. We also dig into the “shadow” cast by epic disruptions—the unforeseen challenges, culture clashes, and the uncomfortable process of rewriting rules in real time.Scott explains how disruption often begins on the margins, serving unlikely customers and overlooked markets, and why innovation is a “collectively individualistic” pursuit that requires both lone sparks and community effort. Finally, we discuss practical steps for leaders to keep their organizations alert to opportunity: experiencing “tomorrow, today,” fostering playful experimentation, and nurturing cultures that let the sparks of creativity catch fire.Five Key Learnings from This Episode:Disruption is about behavior, not just technology: True innovation only matters if it changes how people act, not just what tools they use.Listening to your best customers can blind you: When markets shift, incumbent leaders often miss game-changing opportunities by focusing too narrowly on current power users' demands.The “shadow” of disruption is real: Disruption isn't universally good; it often generates resistance, unintended consequences, and a messy mid-transition period that leaders must thoughtfully navigate.Innovations start at the edges: The next big thing rarely comes from the center of mainstream markets; instead, pay attention to niche users and unexpected applications.Innovation is a team sport: Breakthrough ideas depend on collaboration across disciplines and generations, and thrive in environments that make experimentation fun, not fearful.Get full interviews and bonus content for free!

If you're dealing with anxiety, low mood, chronic stress, or hormonal chaos—you're not broken. You may just be out of rhythm. In this powerful episode, Shana is joined by Dr. Kelli Ritter—licensed counselor, functional nutritional therapy practitioner, and quantum circadian specialist—to unpack how circadian disruption is a hidden root cause behind so many modern symptoms. From anxiety and insomnia to burnout and hormone imbalance, Dr. Kelli reveals how our light environment, trauma history, and daily rhythms impact the nervous system—and what it really takes to heal. This conversation is both science-backed and soul-nourishing, especially for the woman who's doing everything right but still feels stuck.
This week's episode marks the second edition of "The Analysts" once again bringing together the sharpest minds in global retail. This time we welcome Sucharita Kodali, Vice President & Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, and Neil Saunders, Managing Director at GlobalData Retail for a lively, insight rich discussion about the future of retail.The episode kicks off with U.S. retail sales results from the NRF/CNBC Retail Monitor and the US Census Bureau, which showed surprisingly strong growth despite inflation, tariffs, and shaky consumer sentiment. Neil and Sucharita explain why inflation-adjusted numbers tell a more modest story, while digging into the growing disconnect between historically low consumer confidence and healthy sales. They highlight how wealth concentration and media filter bubbles distort the economic picture, making retail performance appear stronger or weaker depending on perspective."The Analysts" then turn to the state of mega-brand retail turnarounds. Neil delivers a tough assessment of Kohl's—calling it the “turnaround that never happened”—while offering cautious optimism on Macy's and Gap, which are showing small but real signs of progress. Sucharita points to structural weaknesses in department stores but also notes resilience in Walmart, Costco, and dollar stores. Together, they weigh how tariffs, operational missteps, and consumer shifts complicate recovery.Next up: AI in retail. Sucharita underscores that artificial intelligence isn't new—retailers have relied on it for years in pricing, supply chain, and labor planning. The novelty lies in generative AI and so-called “agentic AI,” which she characterizes as incremental rather than revolutionary thus far. The panel agrees that while these tools can deliver efficiency, they're unlikely to transform the top or bottom line soon—though Amazon's deep AI and automation investments continue to give it a strategic edge.Looking ahead, holiday forecasts are mixed. Deloitte predicts growth under 3.5%, while eMarketer forecasts just 1.2%. Neil and Sucharita expect more resilience driven by consumers' determination to celebrate. The panel also highlights Amazon's bold logistics move to fulfill orders for Walmart and Shein, underscoring its unmatched infrastructure advantage.The discussion closes with Steve, Michael, Neil and Sucharita each offering what's on their radar screen, including Saks Global's financial turbulence, macroeconomic signals like inflation and jobs data, and AI's potential labor impacts.
