On today's episode, Jason and Derek settle a common debate - as a lifelong car enthusiast, is working in the automotive industry a dream job? Short answer: It's wonderful - but if it were as amazing as it seems 100% of the time, none of us would be paid to work in it. Jason gives us the rundown of his time in the industry - and we quickly realize, there's a lot of prep that happens behind the scenes of Revelations, Cammisa's Ultimate Drag Race & Ultimate Lap Battle, and other Hagerty Media pieces. This includes a sneak peak in the latest upcoming Lamborghini piece, featuring the Urraco, Jalpa, Countach, Gallardo, Revuelto, Temerario, and Jason's Ferrari 308 GT4 - many of which explored several states of function and non-function... Derek gives us a view into his world - one which he often has to travel around the globe to stand out as a collector car dealer in the modern era. Driving and experiencing dream cars around the world can be quite fun, but perhaps having to manage a personality or two, plus getting sick on an airplane. All that and much more on this week's episode of The Carmudgeon Show. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Customer acquisition costs have climbed dramatically over the past few years, but spending more on advertising isn't always the answer. In many cases, rising CAC is a symptom of hidden leaks in your marketing strategy that prevent more prospects from becoming customers. In this episode, Sonia Thompson breaks down the four hidden leaks that drive up customer acquisition costs—and, more importantly, how to fix them. You'll learn how friction in the customer experience, fragmented media and discovery, ad fatigue, and ineffective brand messaging quietly reduce conversions and increase the cost of acquiring new customers. In this episode, you'll learn: Why customer acquisition costs continue to rise for brands across industries How customer experience friction hurts conversion rates and marketing ROI Why today's consumers discover brands differently than they did just a few years ago How ad fatigue reduces campaign performance and what to do about it Why brand messaging must answer, "Is this for someone like me?" before customers will consider your brand Practical ways to improve your customer acquisition strategy without simply increasing your marketing budget If you're looking to improve conversion rates, lower customer acquisition costs, and build a more effective growth marketing strategy, this episode will help you identify where your marketing is leaking—and how to start fixing it.

A race started by President Trump is leading to the rapid construction of new, experimental nuclear reactors. If they work, they could power data centers for artificial intelligence. But critics worry that the breakneck pace is compromising safety and public trust.

Have you ever found yourself taking a 20-minute detour just to avoid a single bridge, or white-knuckling the steering wheel at a red light, convinced you won't "make it" until it turns green?I spent years in that exact cycle. Living in Maine, I was surrounded by highway exits that were only two miles apart—yet even those two minutes felt like absolute torture. I would obsessively tell myself, "I just need to make it to the next exit," only to pass it and start the mental spiral all over again. If you've been avoiding certain routes, mapping out every pull-over spot, or needing a "safe person" in the car just to get to the store, this conversation is for you.In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why driving feels so life-limiting right now. Spoiler alert: It's not actually about your ability to drive. It's about the fear of being stuck, trapped, and unable to handle the anxiety if it shows up. Whether you struggle with highways, planes, or trains, the core mechanics are the same, and once you understand them, you can start taking the healthy steps to get your freedom back.HERE'S WHAT TO SAY TO YOUR BRAIN WHEN YOU'RE SPIRALING: https://ahealthypush.myflodesk.com/calmpanicTAKE MY FREE QUIZ AND FIND OUT WHAT'S CAUSING YOU TO STAY STUCK: https://www.ahealthypush.com/blocking-quizA HEALTHY PUSH INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/ahealthypush/GET THIS EPISODE'S SHOW NOTES: https://www.ahealthypush.com/post/fixing-driving-anxiety

Get the free Core Drives in the Wild guide, behavioral design applied to real products: professorgame.com/WildCD Episode Summary Frédéric Guitton, who leads sales and marketing at iTargetGolf after a career across banking, startups, financial services, and investment firms, explains how driving ranges are turning dead space into an interactive, gamified experience. He walks through the company's product line, including the iTarget Night Saber target that connects to Toptracer, Inrange, and Trackman through an API, the in-bay lights that fire when a player hits their target, and the new Cash Cup Golf hole-in-one contest played with RFID balls. Guitton lays out the three levers a driving range has for revenue, why post-COVID golf growth came from entertainment rather than traditional rounds, and how instant feedback keeps a player buying one more bucket. Listeners come away with a working model of physical gamification and a reminder that designing around real human behavior beats asking people to behave better. About the Host Rob Alvarez is Head of Engagement Strategy, Europe at The Octalysis Group (TOG), a leading gamification and behavioral design consultancy. A globally recognized gamification strategist and TEDx speaker, he founded and hosts Professor Game, the #1 gamification podcast, and has interviewed hundreds of global experts. He designs evidence-based engagement systems that drive motivation, loyalty, and results, and teaches LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and gamification at top institutions including IE Business School, EFMD, and EBS University across Europe, the Americas, and Asia. Key Takeaways A driving range has only three levers for revenue, according to Frédéric Guitton: sell more balls, sell more food and beverage, or sell the balls for more money. Every engagement decision at iTargetGolf traces back to one of those three. iTargetGolf's first targets were powder-coated metal and looked great, but ball picker staff bumped them and metal does not give, so it bent or broke permanently. The replacement is cut from utility sewer pipe and survives 400 to 500 pounds driving over it. Post-COVID golf growth came from entertainment, not from more rounds on traditional courses. Guitton describes the driving range starting to replace the bowling alley as the family night out, which brings in an audience that never came to practice. The iTarget Night Saber target connects through an API to Toptracer, Inrange, and Trackman ball tracking, so a landed ball triggers an animation within seconds. That instant feedback is Core Drive 2 (Development and Accomplishment) delivered in the physical world. Choosing low voltage over high voltage took permitting out of the install path. A California range that signed in mid-June started its install roughly four weeks later, which turned an infrastructure decision into a sales advantage. Guitton frames the B2B2C tension plainly: the range's success drives iTargetGolf's success, so the company treats itself as a consequence of its customers' results rather than a driver of them.

He relocated from France to Central Florida in 1996 and built a career in banking before expanding into startups, financial services, and investment firms, developing experience across business strategy, operations, sales, marketing, and executive leadership. At iTargetGolf he works on a product line that combines interactive illuminated targets, skill-based cash prize games, and integrated ball-tracking technology to increase player engagement and open new revenue for golf facilities. His current focus is building scalable systems, strengthening customer relationships, expanding strategic partnerships, and positioning the company in the evolution of golf entertainment technology.

Have you ever pulled into your driveway and suddenly realized you don't even remember the actual drive home? We've all gone on autopilot during a routine commute, but behind the wheel, your brain is actually running a high-stakes, multi-system marathon. When you or your clients are recovering from a concussion, driving isn't just a daily task—it's an incredibly heavy, cognitively exhausting hurdle. Yet, despite how critical driving is for an individual's independence, it remains one of the biggest blind spots in clinical practice, leaving patients to dangerously figure out their readiness entirely on their own. Navigating an intersection, tracking a pedestrian on the sidewalk, and managing headlight glare require peak performance from the visual, vestibular, and cognitive systems—the exact areas most vulnerable after a head injury. Returning to the road too soon risks a subsequent accident, while avoiding it entirely out of fear leads to long-term anxiety and isolation. The solution isn't to guess or wait until someone "feels fine" in their living room; it's about breaking down the complex neurological demands of the road and utilizing a structured, progressive framework to rebuild that independence safely. BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER: The Hidden Cognitive Marathon of Driving: Why a routine trip to the grocery store demands an intense combination of divided attention, rapid visual processing, and executive function. The Clinical Blind Spot: Why standard clinic visits often fail to accurately assess driving readiness, and how occupational therapy driver rehab services can bridge the gap. A 5-Stage Progressive Return-to-Driving Framework: A step-by-step roadmap to transition safely from a passenger to a confident driver without overloading the nervous system. The Co-Pilot Strategy and Safety Boundaries: Crucial rules for practicing on the road, including how to handle "bad brain days" and when to safely pass the keys back to a partner. Whether you are a clinician looking to step up your care and confidently guide your complex clients, or a survivor trying to navigate your own healing journey, this episode is going to change the way you look at the road.

How often do you find yourself rushing… even when nothing is actually wrong? You're hurrying your kids to get in the car. Speed-walking through the grocery store. Eating lunch while answering emails. Counting down to Friday. Thinking, "I just need to get through today." Somewhere along the way, I think we've started treating ordinary life like it's an emergency. I started saying these 5 words to myself... "This is not an emergency." Today we're going to talk about how to stop living like every single thing is on fire... ...because it isn't. And when you start reminding yourself that this isn't an emergency... you don't just become calmer… you become happier overall.        We Have Accidentally Turned Everyday Life Into An Emergency Think about how many times today you probably said... "Hurry." "We're late." "Come on." "We don't have time." "Let's go." Most of us are moving at emergency speed... ...without an emergency.   Ask yourself... If someone watched security camera footage of my life... would they think I was constantly responding to disasters? Or just making breakfast? Because sometimes they look exactly the same.       Examples We Rush Through Every Day Getting kids ready for school Instead of... "Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!" Imagine saying internally... "This isn't an emergency." Will they still get dressed? Yes. Will yelling make it faster? Usually not. But it definitely changes everyone's morning.     Waiting in line We immediately grab our phones. Complain. Get frustrated. Instead... "This isn't an emergency." Maybe it's two extra minutes. Maybe this becomes your breathing break.   Traffic Somebody cuts you off. You're late. Heart rate skyrockets. Except... You arriving thirty seconds sooner changes almost nothing.     Grocery shopping People rush aisle to aisle. Barely noticing anyone. Never smiling. Never enjoying choosing food they'll feed their family. Life becomes one giant checklist.       Cleaning your house Instead of... "I have to get this done." Try... "I GET to create a home my family enjoys." Same task. Different experience.       Folding laundry Jay Shetty often talks about mindfulness inside ordinary moments. Laundry isn't stealing your life. Laundry IS your life. These ordinary moments ARE your life.       The "Can't Wait Until..." Trap This one is huge. People spend decades saying... "I can't wait until..." The baby sleeps through the night. They're potty trained. They're in kindergarten. Middle school. High school. College. Retirement. Vacation. Friday. Summer. The remodel is finished. When we finally move. When the house is clean. When I lose twenty pounds. Jay Shetty talks often about how our minds live in the future... and miss the only place life actually exists. Today.       What If This Was The Good Part? This might be the chapter you'll miss someday. The noisy dinner table. Little baseball cleats by the door. Teenagers asking for rides. Kids needing hugs. Messy kitchens. Dog hair everywhere. The chaos... might actually be the dream.       Looking For What's Wrong One thing I've noticed... When we're rushing... our brain becomes a problem detector. Traffic. Mess. Noise. Delays. People moving too slowly. Bad service. Rain. We're constantly scanning for irritation. Instead... What if we asked... What's beautiful about this moment? What would I miss if this disappeared tomorrow?   The Brain Finds What It Looks For If you're looking for inconvenience... you'll always find it. If you're looking for joy... you'll find that too. This is something both Mel Robbins and Jay Shetty return to in different ways: attention shapes experience. You don't control every circumstance, but you do have influence over where your mind rests.   Different Phases Of Life Young parents Instead of... "I just need bedtime." Think... "This little voice asking for one more story won't last forever."   Parents of teenagers Instead of... "I can't wait until they're independent." Think... "One day they'll stop needing me this much."   Working professionals Instead of rushing meeting to meeting... Take thirty seconds. Breathe. Drink your coffee while it's hot. Look out the window. Nothing explodes.   Entrepreneurs Everything feels urgent. Every email. Every customer. Every notification. Every opportunity. But if we're honest... very few business decisions require panic. Good businesses are built through consistent decisions... not frantic ones.       Questions To Ask Yourself Whenever you feel yourself speeding up... Ask: Is someone in danger? Is this actually urgent? Will this matter next week? Can I slow my breathing? Can I speak softer? Can I smile? Can I enjoy this? Can I choose peace instead?   My Favorite Reset Whenever I notice myself getting worked up... I literally say... "This is not an emergency." Sometimes out loud. Immediately... My shoulders drop. My breathing slows. My voice softens. I become a better mom. A better wife. A better friend. A better business owner. Not because my circumstances changed... but because my nervous system changed.   Tiny Moments That Become Better Waiting for your coffee. Watching your child tie their shoes. Cooking dinner. Folding towels. Driving to volleyball practice. Standing in line at Disneyland. Watching Little League warmups. Listening to your teenager tell a story that takes forever. Walking your dog. Sunsets. Rainstorms. Family dinners. These moments don't need to be escaped. They're the moments we're going to remember.   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK This week... Every single time you notice yourself rushing... Pause. Take one deep breath. And simply say... "This isn't an emergency." Then intentionally slow down by just 10%. Walk slower. Talk slower. Eat slower. Drive calmer. Listen longer. Smile more. You might be surprised how much life you discover in those extra few seconds.     Life isn't usually asking us to move faster. It's asking us to be more present. The irony is that we spend so much of life racing toward the future... that we barely experience the life we're actually living. So this week... Give yourself one simple reminder. "This is not an emergency." Because most of the time... it isn't. And when you stop treating ordinary moments like crises... those ordinary moments become extraordinary. I hope this episode helps you slow down & enjoy the beautiful life you're already living.

We dig into a remarkable 70 minute video driving the Strip in the summer of 2001, with the Desert Inn about to come down and the festival grounds still a dirt lot, and make the case that version of Vegas might have been better. Plus $3.99 sliders at Casino Royale, the Mad Hatter tea party returning to Peacock Alley August 26th through 30th, and a $20 dinner and a show from old Planet Hollywood.

A note that said "sorry, mom." A voice that said "it's not your time." That's where this conversation starts. My guest today is Adetayo Ibijemilusi — founder of the 1% University, where he teaches AWS Cloud Engineering, personal branding, and sales to help people escape the 9-to-5 and build six-figure consulting businesses. But before any of that, Adetayo survived a suicide attempt, dropped out of college, and drove Uber Eats at 2am with a degree and three certifications and nothing to show for them. We talk about the moment his mentor saw something in him he couldn't see in himself. About the word "leverage" and how it rearranged everything he thought he knew about wealth. About scaling a business from $45K to $489K a year — and eventually to $200-300K a month at a 74% profit margin — not by hustling harder, but by getting aligned before he tried to accelerate. This one goes to some real places: shame, faith, the wrong game we're all taught to play, and what it costs to walk away from it. What we get into:  Why "go to school, get a job" might be the wrong game, and how to tell The one word wealthy people live by that almost nobody teaches you How to actually choose a mentor — and the difference between vibes and proof Why alignment has to come before acceleration, in business and in life The word he received that stopped him cold: "I've called you to be a David, but you've been leading like a Saul" Why AI isn't taking jobs — it's exposing who refused to learn How to job stack the right way, ethically, to multiply your income If you've ever felt the weight of a life that looks fine on paper but doesn't feel true, this conversation is for YOU.

Life has a way of interrupting even the best-laid plans. After nearly 30 years helping founder CEOs grow revenue - including working with companies that later became unicorns and helping many businesses increase their valuation and successfully exit - Alice Heiman is relaunching Sales Talk for CEOs with a specific focus on female founders. Going forward, the podcast will explore the realities women navigate behind the scenes while building companies and driving revenue, while providing practical strategies, support, and conversations designed to help them succeed.Alice Heiman is the founder and CEO of her sales consulting firm, where she has spent nearly 30 years helping founder CEOs increase sales, grow valuation, and exit, with two unicorn companies among her clients. She has hosted more than 190 episodes of Sales Talk for CEOs and is now building dedicated programs and resources specifically for female founder CEOs. Her approach centers on the premise that driving revenue is a solvable problem, and that the real barriers for female founders are the compounding pressures no one talks about: caregiving, hormonal health shifts, and operating in a system where women receive roughly 2% of venture capital funding.Alice explains:◼️ Why she stepped away from the podcast for six months without advance planning◼️ What happens when grief, hormones, and business stress converge simultaneously◼️ How 30 years of advising CEOs exposed an unmet need in support services◼️ Why female founders require more than just sales strategy to succeed◼️ What the 2 percent funding reality reveals about women building companies◼️ Why menopause should be part of conversations about revenue growth◼️ What shifts when family life and founder life are no longer treated separately

What if most of the relationships you've called love were never actually about the other person? What if they were test drives for a version of yourself you were still trying to build, practice runs where someone else paid the emotional tuition while you figured out what you could finally tolerate, what you still needed to prove, and what old story you were still rewriting through their body? Tonight on Voice of Reason we stop pretending the early relationships were simply about chemistry or bad luck. We call them what they often were: starter kits. Rough drafts. The first real mirrors strong enough to show you the patterns you inherited before you had language for them. The ones that moved too fast because you were starving. The ones that felt like destiny until they revealed they were really just the first place you got to choose, to be chosen, to see if the version of love you were given could finally be rewritten. We go further. We examine the stair-step lie. The comforting story that every new relationship is automatically progress. That changing partners means you climbed. Most people don't climb. They just find a new body to practice the same unfinished lesson inside, calling it growth while the floor never actually changes. The same wound. The same performance. The same quiet demand that someone else help them finally feel whole. And we tell the truth about the cost. The deception that almost always begins with self first. The way we let people invest in futures we already knew, somewhere underneath the intensity, we weren't ready to build. The hurt we caused not from malice but from still being under construction while they were already showing up for something real. The wreckage we leave behind and then call “lessons.” Is this simply how self-awareness happens? Must we use other people as laboratories before we can finally see ourselves clearly? Or is there another path, one that doesn't require collateral damage to become honest? This show doesn't offer comfort. It offers the inventory most people spend decades avoiding. It asks what changes when you stop test-driving other people's lives and finally do enough of the work to show up as someone who is actually there. No performance. No hidden curriculum. Just the raw question of whether you're still practicing on someone else's heart or finally ready to meet them where they actually stand.

Saint Paul tells us.....

What happens when you willingly choose something with a greater than 50% chance of failure?In this solo episode of The MISOGI Method, Jody B. Miller takes you along on a personal adventure into Oregon's wild rivers as she pursues one of her newest passions—fly fishing.But this isn't really about fish.It's about courage.It's about preparation.It's about doing something that scares you enough to make you feel fully alive.Driving deep into the Deschutes National Forest, Jody heads into unfamiliar water, completely alone, testing new techniques, new equipment, and her own confidence.Along the way, she shares lessons about stepping beyond comfort, trusting your preparation, embracing uncertainty, and discovering that success often has very little to do with the final outcome.During the journey, she battles an enormous mystery fish for eight unforgettable minutes... only to lose it.Most people would call that failure.Jody calls it a MISOGI Because the greatest victories aren't always measured by what you bring home—they're measured by who you become while chasing something meaningful.The adventure continues the following day with another river, another challenge, and another reminder that every meaningful pursuit rewards those willing to keep showing up.Whether you've never held a fly rod or have spent years outdoors, this episode is ultimately about something much bigger than fishing. It's about finding the thing that stretches you, humbles you, excites you, and reminds you that life is meant to be lived outside your comfort zone.In This Episode You'll Discover:• Why every meaningful MISOGI carries a real possibility of failure.• How preparation builds confidence when stepping into the unknown.• Why losing can still be one of your greatest victories.• The surprising mental and emotional benefits of spending time in nature.• How pursuing passion creates more joy than pursuing perfection.• Why surrounding yourself with supportive people changes everything.• The difference between achieving a goal and becoming the person capable of pursuing it.Memorable Takeaways"A MISOGI isn't about guaranteed success—it's about having the courage to try.""Preparation creates confidence.""Even when you don't catch what you're after, the adventure can change you.""Sometimes the greatest reward isn't what you land—it's who you become along the way.Challenge for This Week.Ask yourself: What is one challenge you've been avoiding because you're afraid you might fail?Maybe that's exactly where your next MISOGI begins.Take the first step.Prepare.Go anyway.Because growth lives just beyond the edge of certainty.About The MISOGI Method.Hosted by bestselling author, TEDx speaker, media entrepreneur, and Work Happiness expert Jody B. Miller, The MISOGI Method features conversations with remarkable people who have chosen difficult paths in pursuit of purpose, fulfillment, and extraordinary lives.Every episode is designed to inspire you to embrace challenges that transform who you become.Connect with Jody B.
