I heard Aaron Grando drop the term "pretotypes" on Leader Generation this morning and had to hit pause. Three minutes in, I realized I'd been vibe coding for months without knowing there was a name for it. But pretotypes? That's when I knew I had to get him on the show immediately. We're talking about taking your stream-of-consciousness ideas and building working drafts before you've even figured out what you want. For business owners doing $0.5 to 10 million a year, this isn't just another tech trend—it's the shift that stops you from waiting weeks for simple prototypes. Aaron's VP of Creative Innovation at Mod Op, and in this spontaneous follow-up to his Leader Generation episode, we dig into what vibe coding actually means for your bottom line and why small teams are suddenly punching way above their weight class. Action items to consider that tie to this episode: Immediate (This Week) Identify your development bottlenecks - Where are you currently waiting on programmers or outsourced developers? Try a simple test - Pick one small coding need and experiment with ChatGPT or Claude Map your current process - Document how long it takes to go from idea to working prototype Set prompt boundaries - Practice asking AI for logical, non-emotional responses Short-term (Next 30 Days) Assess team capabilities - Identify who on your team has enough coding background to effectively prompt AI tools Start with pretotypes - Use AI to visualize one business idea before investing in full development Test platform limitations - Use AI to check if your ideas are feasible within your current tech stack Calculate current costs - Figure out what you're spending on development delays and outsourcing Medium-term (Next 90 Days) Build AI into your process - Make vibe coding part of your standard ideation workflow Train your team - Get key team members comfortable with AI coding tools Measure time savings - Track how much faster you can go from idea to testable concept Expand use cases - Beyond coding, use AI for project planning, gap analysis, and cross-industry perspectives Strategic (Next 6-12 Months) Evaluate in-house vs. outsourcing - Determine if AI tools change your staffing strategy Invest in the right tools - Move beyond free ChatGPT to specialized coding tools if volume justifies it Create AI-enabled processes - Build systems that let AI agents handle routine business tasks Develop competitive advantage - Use speed-to-market improvements to outmaneuver slower competitors Key Questions to Ask Yourself Before listening: How long does it currently take us to go from business idea to working prototype? What development tasks are we avoiding because they seem too time-intensive? After listening: What's the first idea I've been putting off that I could pretotype this week? Who on my team could become our "conductor" for AI-assisted development? What would it mean for our business if we could cut development time by 75%? Resources Mentioned Tools: ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor (coding-specific AI) Concept: Pretotypes (pre-prototype visualization) Original episode: Leader Generation Podcast - "Vibe Coding" episode with Aaron Grando Here is the episode on Leader Generation.

From its earliest concept stages, Star Trek: The Next Generation set out to break new ground, including the intentional addition of a disabled crewmember to the Enterprise-D. Inspired by and named for a real fan, George LaForge, this character was part of a push for greater representation and inclusivity on screen. This week, The Trek Files welcomes actor and artist Bruce Horak, known to fans as Hemmer from Strange New Worlds. Bruce shares his personal journey as a blind actor stepping into Star Trek's universe, the impact of authentic representation, and his new documentary Boldly Going, where he paints portraits of people who have overcome significant challenges in their own lives. Content note: The historical document featured in this episode contains outdated language and descriptions of disabled individuals. While we do not endorse these terms, we present the full text in the interest of transparency and historical context.

The Supreme Court temporarily stayed two lower court orders Friday that mandated the production of documents and other information from the Department of Government Efficiency. In a brief order from Chief Justice John Roberts, the high court stayed the discovery process in the public records lawsuit against DOGE pending another order by the court. The now-stayed orders from Judge Christopher Cooper of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia had granted an expedited discovery schedule that required DOGE to turn over information about its inner workings and have its administrator, Amy Gleason, give a deposition. The decision, for now, allows the Trump administration to withhold information about the Elon Musk-associated efficiency arm while the justices review the government's appeal. On Wednesday, Solicitor General D. John Sauer asked the high court for emergency relief in the case, arguing that Cooper's decision turned the Freedom of Information Act “on its head.” At the heart of the case, which was brought by the government watchdog nonprofit Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, is the question of whether DOGE constitutes an “agency” for the purposes of FOIA. While the administration says that DOGE is exempt from public records laws as a presidential advisory body, the nonprofit argues that the efficiency team has wielded “substantial independent authority” and as such is subject to FOIA and the Federal Records Act, which requires preservation of records. Staff at the Department of Homeland Security are no longer allowed to use commercial generative artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT and Claude, according to a memo sent to employees this month. The move is a reversal of a previous policy — which had conditionally allowed the use of commercial systems — and a pivot toward technology developed in-house. Earlier this month, DHS's chief information officer, Antoine McCord, sent a memo directing component tech offices to begin “restricting” the use of generative AI systems and pointing employees to internal tools. Older guidance, which the CIO described as “outdated” and “too narrowly” focused on commercial generative AI, was also removed from an online list of IT management directives. The decision comes as federal agencies weigh various pathways toward integrating generative AI into their workflows, a priority of both the Biden and Trump administrations. While some government agencies initially blocked generative AI systems, CIOs have slowly started to develop usage policies. Some agencies, like DHS and the General Services Administration, have now built their own platforms based on commercial technologies, while others have opted to use products like ChatGPT Gov through government cloud systems.

The impact of trauma in legal practice extends far beyond individual client interactions. From law school through retirement, lawyers face unique psychological challenges that can fundamentally alter their personalities, relationships, and effectiveness as advocates. Dr. Colin James, author of "Vicarious Trauma and Burnout in Law," brings decades of experience as a senior lecturer of law and researcher to examine how trauma theory applies to legal practice. Through exploring concepts like vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and post-traumatic growth, this conversation illuminates practical ways that individual practitioners and organizations can build more trauma-informed approaches.Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.agileattorney.com/71For Oregon Attorneys, you can claim CLE credit under the "Mental Health & Substance Abuse" requirement.

By 1985, REM had carved out a following both in their home base of Athens, GA and at colleges and indie radio stations around the US. Their first two albums Murmur and Reckoning gave them a foothold as they learned how to craft songs and play live. But they were ready to take the next step so instead of retreating to North Carolina where they'd recorded their first two albums, they went to London to broaden their horizons and up their songwriting and recording game. Because REM had grown into a solid live band, some songs were worked out on the road like their classic travel song Driver 8. But they also sought inspiration from some of the odd characters they encountered in Athens and around the South with songs like Wendell Gee, Life And How To Live It and Old Man Kensey. They also drew from their travels to create some great road songs like Can't Get There From Here, Maps & Legends and Feeling Gravity's Pull. Guitarist Peter Buck does his jangly best here while breaking out a little banjo in spots. Mike Mills not only locks down the bass but provides harmonies and counterpoints to Michael Stipes desperate and personal lyrics. This album would portend the next two REM records - Life's Rick Pageant and Document - both favorites of The Wolf. While the band would go onto become multi-platinum international pop superstars in the 90s, this album saw the band not ready to become that big but ready to take the next step in their journey. It's a fun one to dive into as it turns 40!

Traditionally, litigators seeking to understand an individual's or organization's devices - specifically, how they store, access, manage, and delete information - have either asked a deponent to testify from memory or arranged for a costly forensic inspection instead. In this episode, Jim spotlights a fantastic middle ground: requiring a deponent (individual or 30(b)(6) rep) to bring their devices to the deposition and demonstrate their functions and programs or apps during a videotaped examination. This technique was just approved by a federal judge in a pending class action against the ride-sharing company Uber. It's one all litigators should be using. As Jim says in the episode, devices are where information now lives. Lawyers should be more aggressive in their pursuit of discovery related to devices an individual or entity owns and how they access, store, manage, and delete data.SHOW NOTESIN RE: UBER TECHNOLOGIES, INC., PASSENGER SEXUAL ASSAULT LITIGATION, No. 23-MD-03084-CRB (LJC), 2025 WL 1393216 (N.D.

So, let's talk about time—specifically, linear time.We, as human beings, have experiences that are very similar to one another.And part of that similarity comes from our agreement to live within linear time and space.That's actually what it means to be human on Earth.There's an agreement—an unspoken, collective agreement—that we're going to experience time in a linear way.And the human agreements are what help us stay connected to this shared experience.Now, when we talk about linear time, what do we mean?Timeless Travels: How Your Awareness Shapes RealityThe word “linear” refers to something that moves in a straight line—something that progresses from one point to another.So, when we think about time in a linear sense, we're talking about a line that moves from the past, through the present, and into the future.This model helps us stay oriented.It helps us stay “on time,” as we say.We've even created equipment and systems—like calendars and clocks—to define and measure these parts of the timeline.We label them as past, present, and future.It's a way to help everyone stay on the same page, so to speak.You can think of time like a train moving along a track.The train has already been somewhere—that's the past.It's here now—that's the present.And it's going somewhere—that's the future.That's the essence of linear time: a sense of progression.Something happened before now, and something will happen after.Now, here's where it gets interesting.The reference point for time is individual awareness.In other words, your personal awareness is what anchors you in time.That's what connects all of us—more or less—to experiencing time in a similar way.We're all agreeing to follow the same general passage of time, even though our individual experiences may vary.We're agreeing not to each have our own completely separate timelines.Instead, we're syncing our awareness to a shared understanding: there was a past, there is a present, and there likely will be a future.That shared awareness is what makes time feel real and structured.So, in that way, time is not just a concept—it's a dimension of experience.It's how we, as individuals, connect our awareness to space.We live in three dimensions—height, width, and depth—and then time is brought in as the fourth dimension.And yes, this is where it starts to stretch the brain a bit!Because now we're starting to ask: what's outside of linear time?One way to think about linear time is to imagine it from a bird's-eye view.From that higher perspective, you can see the entire timeline—past, present, and future—all at once.On Earth, we experience time as a progression, but from this broader view, it's all happening simultaneously.And that's where things start to shift.Because when you leave Earth—when you go into space—you begin to disconnect from the Earth-based reference point for time.You're no longer grounded in the same way.Out there, in the vastness of space, time becomes entirely about your awareness in the present moment.So, if a human being goes into space, they carry their Earth-based agreements with them.They still try to live by the same time markers—wake at 6 a.m., sleep at 9 p.m.—but the reference point has changed.Time becomes about the awareness of what you're doing in this present moment.And that opens up a new way of thinking.Because if time is about awareness, then different people—and different cultures—can experience time very differently.Some people don't live by strict deadlines.They're not stressed about time.They just flow with it.And yes, their experience of time is different.Not because the clock is different, but because the value they place on time is different.That's why some cultures are very precise—6:00 a.m. means exactly 6:00 a.m.Other cultures are more relaxed—6:00 a.m. is just the general time you might start thinking about starting something.So, time becomes a cultural agreement, too.And how a culture relates to time can reflect how it deals with uncertainty.Cultures that crave certainty tend to be more rigid with time.Cultures that are more comfortable with the unknown tend to be more fluid.And when you're more fluid with time, you're also more open to uncertainty.You're less attached to exactness and more in tune with the flow of experience.Take, for example, Aboriginal Dreamtime in Australia.That's a much more fluid experience of time.It's not about the ticking of a clock.It's about an expanded experience of the present moment.In that worldview, a moment could be a second—or it could be an hour, a week, or even longer.The present moment stretches across the entire experience.There aren't the same clear-cut divisions between past, present, and future.And that's why, when we ask the question “What is time?”—the answer is always relative to the reference point.It's not about the clock.It's about the awareness.Time is a span of awareness.It's something that we define mechanically—yes—but also something we experience personally.Mechanically, time is linear.Experientially, it's whatever your awareness is tuned into.And that's where resonance comes in.Resonance is how energy flows and harmonizes.From a linear view, resonance is the harmonics of frequency.But resonance can also exist outside of physical reality.It's about how your awareness connects to the flow of energy.The reference point for time is always bestowed by the individual.It's an emerging point of awareness—of your personal flow of energy.That flow becomes your experience of physical reality.But it's mediated by our mechanical systems—clocks, calendars, and so on.Time, then, is awareness of your motion and intention.It's how your awareness moves through the continuum—from potential to form.And in that sense, all flows of energy have awareness and knowing.Time is not just about tracking hours and minutes.It's about experiencing motion, intention, and the unfolding of awareness.So, when we talk about time, we're really talking about the awareness of being—of existing—within space, motion, and possibility.And that's a powerful thing to understand.Because once you know that, you can begin to experience time in a whole new way.Lastly, a tip to connecting outside of time and spaceHow to Collect Evidence of Your ConnectionLove, Doubt can creep in when connecting with your higher self.Combat this doubt by collecting evidence of your intuitive abilities.Recall times when you felt a connection and list those moments.Document instances of following intuitive guidance that led to positive outcomes.The more evidence you gather, the more confidence you'll build in your abilities.This practice rewires your subconscious beliefs about your intuition.Trust that the more you engage with your higher self, the clearer the guidance will become.Your journey of connection is ongoing and will evolve with time.Celebrate each small victory along the way. Thank you for being you and for being here.PS: Look out for part two where we explore how these unusual time perceptions might signal a shift in consciousness, potentially linked to multi-dimensional experiences. Tap into how time anomalies offer both challenges and exciting opportunities for personal and collective evolution.The Light Between is a reader-supported publication.

If you are feeling stuck or weighed down by physical or emotional pain- as a clairvoyant, I've spent my life exploring the human energy field behind my salon chair and as a hypnotherapist— and what I've discovered may surprise you. ✅ Short answer: Yes, your energy field can block light. ❗ Longer answer: It won't stay blocked for long — light waves are here to dissolve those blocks and help you shift into higher vibrations!
It wasn't just the series finale of Star Trek: Enterprise. “These Are the Voyages” marked the end of an 18-year era of continuous Star Trek on television, dating back to The Next Generation in 1987. Emotions ran high on set, and not all of them were celebratory. Returning guest Mike DeMeritt, First Assistant Director on Enterprise, brings us a candid look behind the scenes of Trek's broadcast-era farewell. From dismantled sets to discarded call sheets (but not underwear), we explore the atmosphere and aftermath of one of Trek's most controversial finales.

Money management is crucial for contractors, especially when it comes to documenting free work to protect final payments. We discuss strategies for tracking and leveraging unpaid work rather than simply accepting profit loss when clients negotiate at the end of a job.• Three scenarios where contractors typically do free work: quick fixes you choose to cover, gray areas in contract interpretation, and disagreements over scope or quality• Always calculate your actual costs before offering to do something for free• Communicate clearly with clients when you're covering extra work at your expense• Document the market value of free work in your estimate with a $0 charge• Use documented free work as leverage during final payment negotiations• This approach transforms your generosity from a profit loss into a strategic advantage• Documentation creates boundaries while still demonstrating commitment to customer satisfactionReady to implement better documentation in your contracting business?

Havdalah, Vestot & Mit'asek - Document for Daf 18 by Simon Wolf
On a cold February night in Pontiac Michigan the dream an expecting mother would have to one day hold her son would be ripped from her when she was brutally murdered in her bedroom. The suspects would be plentiful because many had the opportunity, but this case would come down to who had the motive to murder.

In this episode of Friday Fiduciary Five, Eric Dyson talks about the recent surge of forfeiture lawsuits and urges plan fiduciaries, advisors, and committee members to scrutinize their fiduciary processes rigorously. Referencing previous episodes on the topic, Dyson summarizes lawsuits filed by the Schlichter Bogard law firm, which allege that plan sponsors violated fiduciary duties by not using forfeitures in accordance with plan documents, thereby contravening the duty to follow plan terms consistent with ERISA. He emphasizes the importance of reviewing plan documents, operating plans as intended, and clearly outlining policies on forfeitures to mitigate litigation risks.

Guests Marianne Bellotti | Greg Wilson Panelist Richard Littauer Show Notes In this episode of Sustain, host Richard Littauer talks with Marianne Bellotti, author of *Kill It with Fire, *and Greg Wilson, co-founder of the Carpentries, about what happens to your code when you leave your job and how to make sure it survives. They discuss their new paper, "10 quick tips for making your software outlive your job (https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.06484)," and share practical strategies for protecting, documenting, and sustaining code in open source, research, and civil service environments. Whether you're preparing for a job change or want to future-proof your work, this conversation offers real-world advice for developers and researchers alike. Hit the download button now! [00:03:04] Greg and Marianne talk about challenges in code sustainability. [00:05:46] Greg speaks about how scientists often prototype rather than build production quality code. [00:09:48] We start with Step 1 in the paper: “Consider your threat mode.” Greg explains the different plans needed for individual vs. systematic departures, Marianne speaks about the importance of understanding code lifecycle-some code has a “fruit fly” lifespan others a “tortoise” one, and Richard adds to think about reframe threat modeling around future usefulness. [00:15:53] There's a discussion on Step 2: “Get sign-off on releasing it publicly.” [00:21:30] Greg discusses Step 3: “Choose an open license” and emphasizes to stick to well-known licenses (MIT, BSD), don't write your own, and he shares a funny story. [00:25:29] Richard talks about Step 4: “Put your code somewhere safe” and shares to upload code to GitHub, Codeberg, OSF, Zenodo, etc. Greg suggest peer-to-peer methods like torrents could help long-term preservation and Marianne emphasizes the importance of verified identities when sharing. [00:29:21] Marianne introduces Step 5: “Document your code.” Greg shares that most documentation goes unread and LLMs could help mine useful documentation from conversation records and Marianne emphasizes to focus on “how to run it” first and tests are a part of your documentation. [00:35:17] Step 6: “Make your code reproducible.” Greg and Marianne discuss using tools like Docker, uv for Python lockfiles, etc., for dependency management. [00:36:23] Step 7: “Make your code citable” and Step 8: “Encourage community adoption.” Richard mentions to add a CITATION.cff file so others can cite your code and Greg mentions a great book he read that changed the way he viewed this called, Marketing for Scientists, by Marc Kuchner. [00:38:49] Step 9: “Write a succession or sunsetting plan.” Marianne shares to define success and failure criteria for projects explicitly. [00:40:36] Step 10: “Talk about what you're doing.” Greg emphasizes to celebrate and grieve project endings properly and Richard encourages listeners to check out the paper, read it, and if you see something missing you can contribute back. [00:43:12] Fnal thoughts from Greg and Marianne: Organize collectively to protect science and code sustainability and find your team. Quotes [00:12:10] “Weapons begin as toys.” [00:14:09] “All code is throwaway code.” [00:27:34] “Sooner or later every library burns.” [00:29:44] “Most documentation is never read by anybody because it's not answering the questions that you actually have.” [00:41:05] “Take some time to celebrate and to grieve.” Links SustainOSS (https://sustainoss.org/) podcast@sustainoss.org (mailto:podcast@sustainoss.org) richard@sustainoss.org (mailto:richard@sustainoss.org) SustainOSS Discourse (https://discourse.sustainoss.org/) SustainOSS Mastodon (https://mastodon.social/tags/sustainoss) SustainOSS Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/sustainoss.bsky.social) SustainOSS LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/sustainoss/) Open Collective-SustainOSS (Contribute) (https://opencollective.com/sustainoss) Richard Littauer Socials (https://www.burntfen.com/2023-05-30/socials) Marianne Bellotti (Medium) (https://bellmar.medium.com/) Marianne Bellotti LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/bellmar/) Greg Wilson GitHub (https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-wilson-a26510b6/?originalSubdomain=ca) Greg Wilson LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-wilson-a26510b6/?originalSubdomain=ca) “10 Quick tips for making your code last beyond your current job” (draft) (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jk0R8VL8lq1-LIbW9D5qwCkvxfXEobP0-RqSYF-4Io4/edit#heading=h.2ijt9lezevm3) Kill It With Fire by Marianne Bellotti (https://nostarch.com/kill-it-fire) Marketing for Scientists: How to Shine in Tough Times by Marc J.

In this episode, Meredith's husband explains how to strategically use AI to support—not replace—your content creation for SEO. Instead of relying on generic AI tools that promise top rankings, he advocates for a smarter, more personal approach: creating helpful blog content by documenting what you do. By targeting less competitive, specific SEO issues that real users search for (like SEMrush errors), website owners can provide valuable resources and build long-term traffic.Chapter Markers[0:24] Why “document, don't create” isn't a full SEO strategy[1:49] The toughest SEO question: What should you blog about?[2:30] Common mistake: Choosing the wrong keyword target[3:39] My high-traffic keywords: SEMrush technical issues[4:31] Example: Unminified JavaScript and CSS files[5:22] The power of specific problem-solving blog posts[6:29] Applying Gary Vee's concept to SEO blogging[7:23] Case study: 100 SEMrush blogs that brought 5,000 monthly visits[8:51] Use AI to support your content process, not do it for you[9:45] Funny transcript fail and a theory about AI-powered toolsResources MentionedSemrush Issues: Javascript & CSS files (solved) ---Meredith's Husbandhttps://www.meredithshusband.com
What is AI really costing you when you hand over your creative control?If you're a solo or small business owner creating content to grow your business, you already know the pressure to keep up. Between SEO demands, audience expectations, and new AI tools promising shortcuts, it's tempting to hand over control and “let the robot do it.” But will your audience feel any connection to you when they finally find your content? Or will you sound like everyone else who is letting AI create their content from start to finish?I'm joined by Emily Gertenbach, a seasoned SEO content strategist who's been writing human-centered digital content since 2010. She's worked with clients ranging from local agencies to internationally recognized companies, and she's here to help us make sense of AI's role in content creation. Emily brings receipts, nuance, and a bit of tough love as we unpack how AI can help and hurt your brand voice, your SEO, and your connection with your audience.This isn't a doom-and-gloom episode about robots ruining your content.

Em meio a uma temporada de premiações que frequentemente privilegia grandes estúdios e continuações, surgiu uma joia inesperada: Flow, a animação da Letônia dirigida por Gints Zilbalodis. O filme conquistou reconhecimento mundial e prêmios importantes, como o Globo de Ouro e o Oscar de Melhor Animação, sendo também a entrada da Letônia para Melhor Filme Internacional no Oscar, chegando "quebrando carreiras".O que torna Flow verdadeiramente único é o fato de ter sido feito 100% no Blender, um software gratuito, com um orçamento baixo para uma animação. A ausência de diálogos é outra característica marcante. Gints Zilbalodis optou por contar a história puramente através da animação, sons ambientes e naturais, focando no comportamento e nas expressões dos animais. O filme foge do realismo exagerado e da estética antropomórfica típica, mergulhando o espectador em uma meditação visual sensorial.Neste episódio, Rafael Arinelli, Raíssa Ferreira e Camila Correia mergulham na beleza e profundidade de Flow, discutindo suas técnicas de animação, os temas abordados e por que este filme letão se tornou uma das obras mais comentadas e aclamadas da temporada de premiação.Vamos dar spoilers, por isso siga por sua conta e risco.

In one of the most timely and urgent shows we have ever done, today I speak with law scholar Aziz Rana about his brilliant and bracing article recently published in New Left Review, “Constitutional Collapse.” We talk about how the Trump administration and its enablers are shredding a liberal “compact” which was established in in the 1930s through the Sixties and extending an imperial presidency abroad to an authoritarian one domestically. We talk about the current constitutional crisis, but also about the need for, and manifestations of, a politics which is at once a genuine membership organization and social community. As Aziz Rana powerfully argues, “its aim should be to transform the world people organically experience.” This is exactly the analysis and message so many of us need in these dark times.Aziz Rana is a professor of law at Boston College Law School, where his research and teaching center on American constitutional law and political development. In particular, his work focuses on how shifting notions of race, citizenship, and empire have shaped legal and political identity since the founding. Rana's first book, The Two Faces of American Freedom (Harvard University Press) situates the American experience within the global history of colonialism, examining the intertwined relationship in American constitutional practice between internal accounts of freedom and external projects of power and expansion. His new book, The Constitutional Bind: How Americans Came to Idolize a Document that Fails Them (University of Chicago Press, 2024), explores the modern emergence of constitutional veneration in the twentieth century -- especially against the backdrop of growing American global authority -- and how veneration has influenced the boundaries of popular politics. Aziz Rana has written essays and op-eds for such venues as n+1, The Boston Review, The Washington Post, The New York Times, Dissent, New Labor Forum, Jacobin, The Guardian, The Chronicle of Higher Education, The Nation, Jadaliyya, Salon, and The Law and Political Economy Project. He has articles and chapter contributions published or forthcoming with Yale and Oxford University Presses, The University of Chicago Law Review, California Law Review, UCLA Law Review, Texas Law Review, and the Yale Law Journal Forum, among others.

Subscriber-only episodeEver found yourself blindsided by the same busy season year after year? You're not alone. I've dubbed May as "Maycember" because, let's be honest – it rivals December in pure chaos and demands on our time and energy.The end of the school year brings a perfect storm of field days, class trips, graduations, Mother's Day celebrations, Memorial Day weekends, and countless birthdays. What makes this particularly challenging is that these events happen every single year, yet we rarely adjust our planning or expectations accordingly. The secret to mastering these predictably unpredictable periods? Document the madness as it happens.When you're in the thick of spring break chaos or drowning in May's demands, make detailed notes in your calendar for next year. Pay special attention to moving targets like Easter that shift annually but create ripple effects throughout your spring schedule. For business owners, this awareness becomes even more critical – whether you experience seasonal traffic spikes, booking rushes, or product demand fluctuations.This principle extends beyond just May or December. Major life transitions demand space in your calendar too. Sending a child to college, planning a wedding, or welcoming a new baby requires not just your attendance but emotional bandwidth and recovery time. Building buffer zones around these significant events prevents the disappointment of missed goals and unmet expectations.Ready to master your calendar and create a strategic roadmap for your success? Join us this November in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina for the Insiders Retreat. We'll spend three full days crafting your 90-day plan that accounts for projects, tasks, and content strategy to help your business run effortlessly through 2026.

Learn how to land billion dollar clients using revenue based sales strategies In this episode, Stephen Roche shares his proven approach for landing enterprise clients in the competitive financial industry. He reveals why tying products to new revenue generation, rather than just cost savings is the secret to winning major clients like BlackRock and JP Morgan. Stephen explains how building trust through thought leadership, leveraging strategic PR, and using authentic LinkedIn engagement creates a powerful sales ecosystem that makes you the safer choice for potential clients. Stephen Roche is the Co-Founder and President of Saphyre, a patented AI-powered platform that streamlines pre- and post-trade processes for financial institutions. Founded in 2017 with his identical twin brother Gabino, Saphyre has revolutionized the industry by enabling T+1 and even T-Zero trade settlements, helping financial institutions meet new SEC mandates while eliminating the traditional web of manual tasks. The company raised $18.7M in Series A funding in 2022 and boasts an impressive client roster including BlackRock, JP Morgan, and Citigroup. Key Takeaways: Tie your product to new revenue generation rather than just cost savings to make it irresistible to potential clients. Create a "safer option" by building market validation through visible client partnerships and thought leadership. Be authentic on LinkedIn by balancing industry insights with personal content instead of just corporate messaging. Use event sponsorships strategically to gain speaking opportunities that establish thought leadership in your industry. Leverage PR by negotiating press releases with clients and repurposing that content across multiple channels. Document your journey authentically rather than relying on corporate-approved marketing materials that feel impersonal. Use "social proof" from major clients to create FOMO among their competitors who aren't using your solution yet. Consider offering warrant structures tied to performance metrics for strategic partnerships instead of giving away equity upfront. Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be. In this podcast, we will be discussing top level strategies for both growing and expanding your business beyond seven figures.

In the latest episode of Liberty and Learning, Mark Levin engages in a thought-provoking discussion with Dr. Larry Arnn, the president of Hillsdale College. Together, they explore the profound significance of the Declaration of Independence, a document that not only marked a pivotal moment in American history but also established universal principles that continue to resonate today. Dr. Arnn articulates the necessity of the Declaration's opening statement, "When in the course of human events," emphasizing its universal applicability. This phrase sets the stage for a document that seeks to justify the colonies' separation from British rule by appealing to higher principles of natural law and rights. As they dissect the language and intent behind the Declaration, listeners are invited to reflect on the foundational values that shaped the nation. One of the key themes of this episode is the contrast between the principles enshrined in the Declaration and the ideologies of modern progressivism. Dr. Arnn argues that many contemporary critics of the Declaration, including figures like Woodrow Wilson, reject its timeless truths in favor of a more authoritarian approach to governance. This rejection, he asserts, undermines the very essence of what it means to be governed by consent. Levin and Arnn delve into the connection between the Declaration and the Constitution, illustrating how the latter was designed to uphold the principles established in the former. They discuss the importance of consent in governance and how the founding fathers were acutely aware of the need to limit their own powers to prevent tyranny. This historical context is essential for understanding the ongoing relevance of the Declaration in today's political discourse. Listeners are encouraged to engage with the ideas presented in this episode, particularly as the 250th anniversary of the Declaration approaches. Dr. Arnn suggests that reading the Declaration regularly can deepen one's understanding of its significance and the principles of liberty it embodies. For anyone interested in American history, political philosophy, or the enduring legacy of the Declaration of Independence, this episode offers a rich exploration of ideas that are as relevant today as they were in 1776. Tune in to Liberty and Learning for this enlightening conversation that challenges listeners to consider the principles that underpin our government and society.
