    Most founders think growth problems are marketing problems.Charles Gaudet doesn't.In this conversation, Charles breaks down why fast growth is often the most dangerous thing a business can chase — and why predictable growth is the real path to scale, peace, and long-term success.We talk about the Founder's Trap, why vanity metrics quietly kill good companies, and how many entrepreneurs accidentally become the bottleneck in the very businesses they built. Charles shares hard-earned lessons from scaling companies through uncertainty, including a pivotal COVID-era pivot, the role of gratitude and perspective in leadership, and why collaboration — not hustle — is the real unlock.This isn't just a tactical conversation.It's a reset on how founders think about growth, control, and what “winning” actually looks like.

    Technology is changing so fast that it is impossible to predict the next twelve days. Despite that, we have asked Travis Rosiek, Public Sector CTO at Rubrik, to gaze into his crystal ball and make some predictions for the next twelve months. The good news is that Rosiek sees a shift from intellectual property theft to disruptive attacks on critical infrastructure. The bad news is that Rosiek thinks attacks are increasing to the point that an event will light a fire under the current cybersecurity plans. During the interview, the concept of Zero Trust was unpacked. The idea is that federal systems have already been breached. As a result, the focus must be on microsegmentation, with permission as the limiting factor. Roseik's opinion is that malicious actors have planted code into systems that are acting as "sleepers." At one time in the indeterminate future, this code can be invoked, and severe damage can take place. If this nightmare situation occurs, the best defense is to have recovery built in. Today, leaders must have a system in place to restore data from backups. Unfortunately, malicious actors know this plan as well and have been known to insert code into backups that renders them useless. In a complex game of attack and counterattack, Roseik believes that a recovery strategy that includes immutable backups and an audit mechanism is the best approach in the 21st-century world of threats and countermeasures. He also stressed the necessity of reducing complexity to enhance cybersecurity and the need for initiative-taking measures, including regular stress testing and resilience training. = = Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn   https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com

    January 28, 2026: In today's episode, I zoom out to help you see what's really shaping the future of work. Before we talk about AI, leadership, or organizational strategy, we need to understand the forces happening outside our companies. Because work doesn't evolve in isolation—it's shaped by powerful external trends in technology, society, economics, and more. That's why I walk through the STEEPLE framework: a futurist tool designed to help leaders move from reacting to predicting—and from predicting to designing. STEEPLE stands for Social, Technological, Economic, Environmental, Political, Legal, and Ethical forces. Together, these seven domains explain how work is changing and what leaders need to prepare for over the next five-plus years, especially in an AI-driven world. We explore how AI is becoming the central nervous system of organizations, why skills are replacing job titles, how identity and purpose are reshaping careers, and why the economic contract between employers and employees is being rewritten in real time. I also share why the future of work isn't something organizations "deliver" to employees—it's something that's co-created, requiring accountability on both sides. If you're trying to make sense of rapid technological change, shifting employee expectations, and what leadership really means in the age of AI, this episode gives you a practical framework to understand what's coming—and how to design for it.

    Recorded live at Cloud Connections in Delray Beach, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, spoke with Mark Vange, Founder & CEO of Autom8ly, about how AI voice agents are reshaping complex, regulated, and high-value communication workflows. Vange explained that Autom8ly specializes in building AI solutions for partners and service providers that serve customers with nuanced and often highly regulated requirements. Rather than focusing on generic AI reception or basic appointment setting, Autom8ly targets verticals where complexity, compliance, and scale intersect—use cases where off-the-shelf AI voice agents fall short. One of the company's primary areas of focus is the collections market. Autom8ly is deploying AI voice agents to handle high-volume, routine collections calls while allowing human agents to concentrate on more complex, high-stakes cases. Early observations suggest that consumers may respond less defensively to AI-initiated outreach than to human collectors, particularly for smaller or straightforward obligations such as missed payments, parking fines, or one-time healthcare balances. In these scenarios, the AI agent can confirm details, negotiate payment terms, and securely process payments, while automatically escalating more complex disputes to human staff. Vange emphasized that Autom8ly's AI agents are designed with strict boundaries. They do not cross regulatory red lines, attempt legal persuasion, or handle cases involving attorneys, court orders, or disputed liability. Instead, they address the majority of routine interactions that consume time and resources but generate limited strategic value when handled by humans. From an operational standpoint, AI voice agents offer significant efficiency gains. Human collectors often achieve utilization rates as low as 25–30 percent due to unanswered calls, breaks, and administrative overhead. AI agents, by contrast, operate at near-100 percent utilization, reducing cost per dollar collected while accelerating time to revenue. Autom8ly has also engineered its platform to meet PCI and compliance requirements, ensuring sensitive payment data is never exposed to large language models or unsafe systems. Beyond collections, Vange highlighted broader opportunities for MSPs and channel partners. Autom8ly has delivered AI voice agents for underserved language communities, including healthcare environments where providers lack staff fluent in languages such as Haitian Creole. By combining language capability with cultural awareness and compliance controls, AI agents can expand access to essential services while reducing operational strain. For MSPs and service providers, Vange positioned AI voice agents as a “high-value voice” opportunity—particularly in industries such as healthcare, utilities, finance, and public services, where multilingual communication, compliance, and scale are critical. When interactions move beyond simple scripts and require deep customization, Autom8ly's partner-led model is designed to fill that gap.

    In this episode, I'm joined by Steve Harding, Senior Vice President of Sales EMEA at SalesLoft and global sales leader, for a deep dive into how AI is reshaping the revenue workflow. We cut through the hype to uncover the real value AI brings to sales teams, from serving as the "air traffic control" for overwhelmed account executives to accelerating pipeline creation through smarter signal prioritization. Steve shares powerful examples from his own organization, unveils practical AI use cases for prospecting and deal progression, and emphasizes the importance of keeping the human touch front and center. Tune in for candid stories and fresh perspectives on how sales teams can successfully adopt AI, avoid common mistakes, and leverage technology to enhance, not replace, the vital role of human judgment and relationship-building in sales. Outline of This Episode 00:00 AI-driven sales productivity insights. 08:08 Human-centric sales in the AI era. 10:42 Content overload challenges modern buyers. 15:48 AI-powered sales insights. 19:13 AI integration in sales workflow. 20:27 AI-driven customer outreach automation. AI in the Revenue Workflow: Separating Value from Hype Today, sales teams are inundated with tools and data, making the challenge not just about having information, but about managing it. AI has the potential to become the air traffic controller, helping teams delegate, automate, and prioritize effectively. AI's most meaningful contribution is compressing "time to insight." Instead of manually sifting data or waiting for CRM updates, AI delivers actionable guidance at critical moments in a seller's workflow. Steve outlines how, at SalesLoft, AI is integrated directly into their platform, which helps account executives instantly recognize the next best action and act at the right time. This isn't just theoretical. For example, teams can now pick up signals, both internal, like website activity or content downloads, and external, like missed payments, that indicate where attention is needed. AI then helps sort and prioritize these signals, recommending actions and automating follow-up tasks so teams spend time where it counts. The result: improved productivity and responsiveness, and ultimately, healthier pipelines. AI that Boosts Prospecting, Qualification, and Deal Progression What does this look like in practice? Steve shares a recent exercise at SalesLoft when they analyzed every major win and loss across markets and segments, mining rich interaction data captured in their system. When they fed this into the AI, they discerned clear themes that differentiated wins from losses. The findings informed improvements to their sales process, especially around discovery intent, giving teams concrete cues that new hires and veterans alike could watch for. This real-world application of AI proved results, boosting win rates and adding confidence, context, and clarity to team conversations while preserving the all-important human connection. The Human Element - Where Judgment Still Matters Most Despite the buzz, AI is not a panacea for sales relationships. At the end of the day, sales is a human-centric activity, Steve explains. AI serves best as a "wingman or copilot." It can automate certain workflows, but when the conversation gets nuanced, or the stakes are high, whether it's handling objections or building deep trust, a human's judgment, empathy, and experience remain irreplaceable. Buyers are showing up more informed, or misinformed, than ever before. But the proliferation of high-quality marketing content has led to confusion and caution. Salespeople must now help buyers navigate this information landscape and overcome the "fear of messing up", a challenge that can't be solved by algorithms alone. What missteps do organizations make with AI rollouts?  Steve stresses two dangers: Expecting AI to perform beyond the skill level of a company's most junior rep. Failing to keep humans "in the loop", validating and verifying a system's outputs. Instead, AI should recommend and automate, not dictate, with human oversight at every critical juncture. It's the old wisdom: "Trust but verify." As sales leaders consider integrating AI into pipeline generation or deal execution, Steve recommends starting with the pain points, not the tech itself. Ask where reps are wasting time, then target AI to solve those problems. Then, using AI within your systems, not on the edge (like ad hoc Copilot or OpenAI research). This keeps valuable intel connected to your CRM. While you're doing this, it's important to keep a human in the loop to protect your relationships and reputation. Where AI and Human Skill Combine for Better Outcomes One standout example is nurturing relationships when key contacts change roles or organizations. AI tools can track these moves and trigger a personalized, multi-step outreach campaign, congratulations on LinkedIn, followed by an email and a phone call. This blend of automation and personal touch lets teams act at scale, re-engage valuable advocates, and build pipeline opportunities that would be nearly impossible to manage manually. AI is transforming sales workflows, but not by replacing humans. Use AI as an intelligent copilot to prioritize, automate, and scale, but never lose sight of the human skills of empathy, and judgment.  Connect with Steve Harding Steve Harding on LinkedIn  Salesloft  Connect With Paul Watts  LinkedIn Twitter  Subscribe to SALES REINVENTED Audio Production and Show Notes by PODCAST FAST TRACK https://www.podcastfasttrack.com

    Kristof interviews Benjamin Jewell.This is Part 2 of our latest series to familiarize our industry with the world of hydronics systems and air-to-water heat pumps. In Part 2 we're rejoining the conversation to look at controls - the "central nervous systems" of these hydronics. We're moving beyond old-school mechanical switches to a new class of microprocessor based systems that prioritize "outcomes"—like thermal comfort and air quality—rather than just reacting to thermostat calls. This shift is about adding intelligence that anticipates comfort needs and makes the system more stable and predictable for both the installer and the homeowner .We also dive into the high-stakes world of the global refrigerant transition and how hydronic systems allow a home to become "refrigerant agnostic" and truly future-proofed . We unpack the potential of natural refrigerants like R-290 (propane) and discuss why builders and developers are the key stakeholders in the transition of this product class from high-end homes to the baseline approach for every home that's built. We wrap up by looking at how simplified "kit" solutions are finally removing the traditional barriers of labor and complexity to make hydronics accessible for the mainstream market.Benjamin JewellDirector of Carrier Hydronics NA (Climate Solutions Americas)As the Director of Carrier Hydronics North America within the Climate Solutions Americas division, Ben Jewell leads a multifaceted organization comprising Product, Engineering, and Technical Services teams.

    Asaf didn't arrive in Chicago speaking the language or knowing the system. He arrived with grit, a willingness to learn, and a natural ease with people. At twelve years old, he was asking for a bathroom at a gas station and realizing quickly that survival meant adapting fast. That early pressure shaped how he works today: calm, direct, and grounded in reality.Asaf is a Chicago-based real estate broker with nearly a decade in the business. He's also a father of two, a former dialysis technician, and someone who's sold everything from gym memberships to insurance before landing where he is now. Sales wasn't a pivot, it was always the throughline.The turning point came when the healthcare path stopped making sense. Long hospital hours, missed sleep, and a nursing program rejection forced a reset. While Asaf was grinding through four a.m. shifts, his younger brother was earning more money at a gym with less stress. It showed him that effort alone doesn't equal leverage.He moved fully into sales, then into real estate in 2017. The mechanics were new, but the mindset wasn't. Asaf already knew how to talk to people, ask the right questions, and handle pressure. What surprised him was how uncertain the early deals felt. Even with mentors, there were moments where the responsibility sat squarely on his shoulders. One foreclosure transaction in particular forced him to navigate banks, missing information, and impatient clients with no clear playbook. He figured it out anyway.That experience shaped how he operates. Asaf stays deeply involved. He doesn't push clients off to lenders and disappear. He starts with a real consultation, looks at documents, and asks uncomfortable questions early. If expectations don't match reality, he says it plainly. “If you overpromise and can't deliver, that's it,” he says. He sees that as the biggest mistake in the industry.His approach is simple. Treat every client like you're on the other side of the table. Stay present, communicate, and be honest about what's possible. He believes trust is built in the gaps where others check out. That's why nearly all his business comes from referrals. He doesn't rely on heavy marketing spend. He relies on relationships that last.The same philosophy shows up online. Asaf doesn't sell hard on social media. He blends real estate with real life. He knows people don't like being sold. They like recognizing themselves in someone they trust. “Be you,” he says. “That's what people respond to.” Consistency matters more than polish.Outside of work, discipline stays central. He runs outdoors year-round. He boxes when stress builds. Movement keeps him steady in a business that never really shuts off. At home, that discipline turns into investment. His daughter competes in swimming. His son plays on a travel soccer team above his age group. Time and money go into those commitments without hesitation. Asaf sees the long view everywhere.For anyone starting out, his advice is blunt. Be patient and consistent. Look yourself in the mirror and decide if you're actually going to commit. Social media highlights aren't the job. The job is what happens when nobody's watching. “If you're not all in,” he says, “you're just wasting your time.”That perspective didn't come from shortcuts. It came from showing up early, learning the hard way, and staying real when it would've been easier to flex. Asaf isn't trying to be bigger than he is. That's why his business keeps growing.The lesson transfers cleanly. Whether you're in real estate, sales, or building a personal brand, depth beats noise. Trust beats hype. Longevity beats quick wins. People remember how you made them feel when things were uncertain.Asaf sums it up simply. “Nobody likes to be sold. People like to be treated right.”

    What if sustainable weight loss wasn't about dieting harder—but about restoring your metabolism and learning how to live well for the long term?In this episode of the Visibly Fit Podcast, I sit down with Maxime Sigouin, founder of MAVI Wellness and author of Forever Fit, to unpack what metabolic health really means—and why most people regain the weight they work so hard to lose.Maxime's story is powerful. After his late partner was diagnosed with breast cancer at just 22 years old, everything changed. Through whole-food, plant-based nutrition and lifestyle shifts, she lived years beyond what doctors predicted. That experience didn't just shape his beliefs—it ignited his mission to help others avoid preventable chronic disease and reclaim their vitality.We talk about why most diets fail, how metabolism actually works, and why mindset—not motivation—is what keeps people stuck. If you've ever felt discouraged by past programs, overwhelmed by conflicting nutrition advice, or frustrated by weight that won't stay off, this episode is for you.You'll learn why Maxime calls healthy living a “seatbelt for life,” how reverse dieting protects your metabolism, and why taking care of yourself isn't selfish—it's one of the most loving things you can do for the people who depend on you.This conversation will challenge how you think about food, movement, discipline, and aging—and it will leave you encouraged, equipped, and ready to take your next step toward lasting health.Chapters:[00:00] Podcast Preview[01:12] Topic and Guest Introduction[04:10] A Life Driven by Purpose[06:35] Cancer, Nutrition, and a Wake-Up Call[08:52] Why Plant-Based Living Is a “Seatbelt for Life”[09:50] Athletic Performance on a Plant-Based Diet[10:55] Rebranding, Marriage, and MAVI Wellness[11:40] What “Forever Fit” Really Means[14:20] Reverse Dieting Explained[17:10] Why Transformation Starts in the Mind[19:45] Self-Sabotage and Talking Yourself Off the Ledge[20:50] Why Self-Care Is Not Selfish[22:36] The Five-Phase Forever Fit Blueprint[30:20] The Power of Sleep, Hydration, and Daily Movement[36:12] The One Mindset Shift That Changes Everything[38:49] Where To Get Forever Fit Book[39:25] Final Encouragement[41:30] Maxime's Life Verse and TattoosResources mentioned:Forever Fit Book Website: foreverfitbook.comGet your copy on AmazonConnect with today's guest:Maxime Sigouin is an accomplished fitness coach and athlete, and the founder of MAVI Wellness, formerly known as Fit Vegan Coaching.

    In this inaugural roundtable discussion, I dive headfirst into one of the most contentious topics at the intersection of faith and science: psychedelics and Christianity. As a relatively new Christian myself, I've been wrestling with what believers should think about these powerful substances—especially after interviewing guests whose lives were transformed by psychedelic experiences, including detransitioners who credit these substances with helping them see through lies they'd built their lives upon.I've gathered four fascinating voices for this conversation, each bringing unique expertise and perspectives. Louie Locke, a pastor of 26 years from Reno, Nevada, rates himself a one out of ten—firmly opposed to psychedelic use from a Christian perspective. He explains his concerns about entering the "second heaven" or spirit realm through means other than Jesus, warning of spiritual doors that may be opened through such substances.Cameron English, a science journalist and director of biosciences at the American Council on Science and Health, brings skepticism from both scientific and theological angles, noting the poor quality of research and drawing parallels to problematic harm reduction movements.Daniel Elliot, an Air Force veteran and counselor who has conducted research on psilocybin and spiritual wellbeing, offers a cautious middle ground as a five, distinguishing between natural substances like psilocybin and synthetic ones like MDMA.Dr. Liza Lockwood, an emergency medicine physician and medical toxicologist, presents the highest rating at seven, explaining her interest in the therapeutic potential for treating refractory depression while sharing the fascinating history of ergot poisoning from the Salem Witch Trials to the discovery of LSD.Together we explore the Greek concept of pharmakeia, whether psychedelics might be connected to the tree of knowledge of good and evil, what harm reduction really means in practice, and whether Christians should be involved in psychedelic-assisted therapy settings. This is just the first in a series exploring these questions—questions that don't have easy answers but deserve thoughtful Christian engagement.Books mentioned:-Imagine Heaven and Imagine The God of Heaven by John Burke-The Great Divorce by C.S.

Do it right or don't do it at all.Maybe like me you find yourself doing it all wrong by trying to do it all right. We have these notions--born of long-ago outdated, outmoded stories--about what we're supposed to do, have, create, earn, market, publish, reconfigure, reorganize, envision, and connect. But I can't and I don't want to do it all perfectly. I want to Be rather messy in my life.  Practical Tip: Let's stop for a moment. How would it feel if we “should” less on our own good selves? What if - even for a moment - we invite the power of the pause, peace and space. Did you just breathe a deep sigh of relief? Perhaps drop your shoulders? Maybe even smile at your silly human self?

    This episode introduces the idea of the Post-Hype Consumer, a demographic that has become disillusioned with brands that prioritize speed and hype over authenticity and trust. Gavon emphasizes that these consumers are not anti-consumption but are instead cautious buyers who seek brands that resonate with their values and beliefs. They are influenced more by community and shared experiences than by flashy marketing campaigns. This consumer necessitates a shift towards community-driven consumerism. He highlights how consumers are now self-regulating, protecting their identities from brands that fail to deliver on their promises.

    Most people spend their lives chasing happiness yet end up miserable. In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett and Nick flip the script using inverse thinking to expose 10 decisions that almost guarantee a broken, unhappy life. Inspired by the philosophies of Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett, this episode shows that sometimes the fastest path to wisdom is learning what not to do.You'll hear why making life all about yourself leads to emptiness, how chronic complaining drains momentum, why refusing to take risks kills potential, and how neglecting self-development, health, and belief sabotages your future. Garrett breaks down how belief systems shape outcomes, why confidence and risk are inseparable, and how consuming more than you create slowly erodes purpose and fulfillment.The episode culminates with the two most destructive choices of all: loving yourself more than God, and never developing a deep, lifelong relationship with Him. If you want to avoid regret, live with meaning, and build a life that actually works, this episode gives you a clear warning sign for every major pitfall—and shows you how to walk the opposite path toward purpose, faith, and strength.Join a group of likeminded Impossible Life listeners in our FREE Skool community by clicking here.Get the Purpose Playbook by clicking hereGet the FREE Basic Discipline Training 30 Day Program by clicking hereJoin us in Mindset Mastery by clicking hereIf you're a man that wants real accountability and training to be a leader, click here.Level up your nutrition with IDLife by clicking hereGET IN TOUCHSocial Media - @theimpossiblelifeEmail - info@theimpossible.life
