This week's episode is a love letter to one of the riskiest, most liberating beliefs I've ever adopted: It is safe to rely on the generosity and honesty of strangers.I'm sharing the story of how buying a quirky little car on eBay completely rewired how I move through life as a divorced woman, single parent, and human navigating the daily grind.We'll talk about:How divorce and betrayal shrink your “trust radius”Why suspicion feels safe but is actually a prisonWhat Diana Chapman's world as an ally philosophy has to do with your ex-husbandThe nervous system's role in rebuilding trust (and why your body has to go first)“Trust push-ups”: small, safe ways to start letting people inThe surprising science behind why letting others help you is a gift to themHow to hold both trust and strong boundaries without apologyYou'll also hear how I've reframed my ex as one of my greatest teachers, why I keep choosing to extend the benefit of the doubt, and how this belief has made me lighter, freer, and more powerful in my own life.Your challenge this week: spot three moments a day when someone offers you help, kindness, or honesty—and see how it feels to let the world prove you right.Because trusting strangers isn't about being naïve. It's about deciding you're strong enough to handle whatever comes… and opening your life to a whole lot more good in the process.PostDivorceGlowUp.comEmail: quinn@postdivorceglowup.com

This week we talk about tech bubbles, building moats, and infrastructure investment.We also discuss capital expenditure, data centers, and employee compensation.Recommended Book: The Art of Gathering by Priya ParkerTranscriptMany technology booms have early periods in which innovators have a first-mover advantage, and a lot of what happens in their industry is informed by the decisions those innovators make.After that—depending on the technology, but this is common enough to be considered a trend—after that there tends to be a period of build-out and consolidation amongst the people and business entities that survived that initial, innovation-focused throw-down.In the context of personal computers, this moment saw computer-makers like Microsoft and Apple scramble to pivot from figuring out what an operating system should look like and whether or not to use mice to navigate user interfaces, to a period in which they were rushing to scale-up the manufacture of now-essential, but previously comparably rare components: suitable screens for their monitors, chips that could power their increasingly graphical machines, and the magnetic materials necessary to produce floppy disks and spindle-based hard drives.There's an initial period in which new ideas and approaches provide these entities with a moat that protects them against competition, in other words, but then the game they're playing changes, the rules are more fully understood and to some degree locked into place and agreed upon, and instead of competing for the biggest, most brazen new ideas, they lock onto one set of ideas that seemed to be the best of what's available at that moment and build on those, iterating them at a regular cadence, but focusing especially on scaling them.So at this second stage, they're investing in the ability to out-produce their competition in some way, so they can eventually bypass that competition and (they hope) safely increase their prices and make a profit, as opposed to just larger and larger revenues with equal or greater expenses, continuing to be reliant on investor injections of capital, rather than generating their own surplus returns.By many analysts' and insiders' estimates, we've just entered that second stage in the generative AI industry. That's the sort of AI that generates text and images and code and such, and it's increasingly becoming a sort of commodity, rather than a new, hot things that few companies can offer the market.What I'd like to talk about today are the increasingly massive financial figures associated with this industry's shift to that second stage of development, and why some of those insiders and analysts are voicing fresh concerns that this could all lead to a bubble, and possibly an historically large one.—There are many ways we could measure the growth of the AI industry over the years.The US market size, for instance, which is a measure of the value of AI-oriented companies based on how much shares of their company cost or would cost on the open market, has ballooned from just over $100 billion in 2022 to an estimated $174 billion in 2025. That figure is expected to grow at a not quite 20% compound annual growth rate through 2034, which, if accurate, would put this market, in the US alone, at more than $850 billion.Another metric we might use is that of capital expenditure, or capex, in this corner of the tech industry, which refers to the amount of money AI companies are using to buy, upgrade, or maintain their long-term assets, like new computer chips or the data centers they fill with those chips.The seven most valuable US tech companies—Meta, Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, NVIDIA, and Broadcom (that last spot formerly held by Tesla, which was dropped from this designation in late-2024)—just those seven companies have spent $102.5 billion on capex this last financial quarter (and most of that was from just four of them, Meta, Alphabet, Microsoft, and Amazon, the remainder only spending something like $6.7 billion).That's a staggering amount of money, and due to a recent drop in consumer demand—the money individual US citizens spend on things like food and clothes and smartphones and cars and all the other things people buy—AI-related capex, spending by these massive US tech companies, has added more to GDP growth than consumer spending for the past two quarters.All the things all the people in the US bought over the past two quarters did not cost as much, in aggregate, as what these companies spent during the same period, on new and existing assets. That's pretty wild.And it's the consequence, partly, of the shift in these companies' focus from providing goods and services that relied heavily on people—salary and stock compensation, basically, which is not a capex expense, because its spent on employees, not stuff—to spending heavily on all that infrastructure that they believe will be required to help them compete with those other companies that are also frantically investing in the same.Whomever can built the biggest, baddest, most reliable and powerful data centers, and can get the AI-optimized chips to fill them, will have an advantage over their opponents in the new, developing tech world paradigm, it's thought, so they're pumping gobs of resources into exactly those sorts of assets, hoping to get ahead, build an insurmountable advantage, and put their competition out of business—or failing that, to establish themselves as the AI Coca-Cola, versus their opposition's AI Mr. Pip.Similar dynamics are playing out elsewhere, especially in China, where the market could reach a value approximating today's US AI market in 3-5 years, and several times that, up to $1.4 trillion, by 2030—though like all of these figures, it depends on how we choose to measure these sorts of things, including what counts as an AI company, and in China, several of their major AI players are heavily involved in automation, robotics, which itself is expected to be a $5 trillion industry in that country by 2050.Europe's market is comparably smaller, as is its overall tech industry, but the AI market is now just shy of 15% of its total tech sector, up from 12% in 2022, and AI startups are attracting about a quarter of all VC funding in the bloc right now—so they're starting from a less spendy start, but like pretty much everywhere the necessary knowledge and manufacturing base exists at the moment, the European AI market is growing a lot faster than anyone would have expected even just five years ago.And there are real-deal innovations coming out of this tech; these investments are flooding into AI companies because these technologies, this version of them, the generative AI stuff, has completely rewired the programming world, AI bots and agents helping coders achieve a lot more, faster, and non-coders make things they wouldn't have been able to build lacking these tools, imperfect as many of those tools are, under the hood.We're also seeing an explosion of other sorts of generated content, and the injection of these tools that make such content into Hollywood studios and consulting firms and government agencies, and everything in between, is causing equal parts panic and excitement, depending on whether you're one of the people who feels like they might be laid off soon, replaced by software, or if you're someone who profits from all those layoffs, and the payments from the companies that hope to save money by conducting them, replacing their comparably expensive employees with cheaper AI tools.Things have gotten so wild that Meta's CEO Mark Zuckerberg has started offering compensation packages ranging from $200 million to more than a billion dollars to top AI talent. Meta's AI spending is already massive, and could hit $72 billion this year, but the company has said it could hit $100 billion in 2026, while Microsoft's leadership suggested their 2025 spending of $30 billion could balloon to $120 billion in 2026.OpenAI recently offered their employees large bonuses, in the hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars range, to counter those sorts of overtures from the likes of Meta, but there's a lot of money flying around from all direction right now, much of it aimed at more AI infrastructure, or the relatively few people on the planet who understand this tech well enough to make a competitive difference in this industry.That's…a lot of money. There's just so much spending happening, so many resources sloshing around in this one space right now, and all this investment is predicated on the idea that AI will change everything, we're stepping into a new paradigm, and those who control the AI, will basically own the next game. So they're all trying to set things up so they win the next game, or at least have the best hand possible when it arrives.There have been increasingly loud arguments, made by long-time generative AI critics, but also, more recently, ardent AI boosters, that we might be running up against a wall of what these things can do for us; this version of the AI concept, at least.And these arguments got louder with OpenAI's release of their long-teased GPT-5 model, which some expected to be true AGI, human-grade, flexible, omni-capable intelligence, while others thought it might be a mono-focused superintelligence of some kind: the perfect coder, the perfect image generator, something like that.What users got was not that. It seems to be better at some things, still not great at others.This was an incredibly expensive model to produce—the training costs alone are estimated to be something like a half-billion dollars, and that's just a portion of the total costs of creating this sort of model—and what OpenAI served up, instead of something groundbreaking, was a slightly better, though in some ways seemingly the same or worse version of what everyone's been playing with for years, now.There's room for disagreement on this, as while there are some more objective tests for measuring models' capabilities, a lot of it is circumstantial, and depends, among other things, on what you're trying to do, how the systems are prompted, and so on.There's also something to be said for cost-reductions and other sorts of benefits of new models, beyond raw power and capability.But this thud of a launch for what was supposed to be a sea-changing system has led to the ringing of some alarm bells, industry watchers wondering if we might be careening toward a bubble, at a moment in which, again, this segment of the tech industry is contributing more to the US's GDP than all of consumer spending, combined.A bubble, to be clear, wouldn't mean the collapse of the US economy, or even these companies, necessarily. It would mean a lot of AI entities going under, a lot of invested money lost, and a lot of people who suddenly don't have jobs.Almost always there are a few players in these bubbly spaces that make it to the other side, though—eBay, for instance, survived the dotcom bubble intact, as did Amazon, PayPal, and Adobe, among many others.But the grand shakeout, the sifting for those that could survive a mammoth downturn, and the destruction of the rest, that's a tough moment for those directly connected to the bubble-popping industry, and those adjacent to it: the folks who feed the employees who are now laid off, the suppliers of the light switches that go in all the data centers, etc.There are ripple effects to this sort of bubble pop moment, then, and though such sifting might be long-term beneficial, because it maybe weeds out some of the dead-weight and makes things more efficient in that space five or ten years in the future, that won't help the folks who lose a lot of money when the industry shrinks, including those who have their money at banks that made bad bets, or insurance companies that did the same, with their customers resources.Everything's great for everyone when these sorts of high-risk, high-reward bets are paying out, but when the golden goose of huge anticipated future profits disappears, that shakeout leaves a lot of entities and people with emptier pockets.None of which suggests this is going to happen; there's a chance that we continue to see better and better models using the current, generative AI technology, or that some of these companies successfully pivot to another AI approach that bears better, next-step fruit, and things just keep getting more and more powerful and less and less expensive for everyone; that could theoretically lead to some pretty cool, broadly beneficial things.This sort of risk is lurking in the background of everything that's happening, though, and while upbeat marketing messages and predictions about how cool it will all be when the next-step tools arrive can keep things going for a while, even lacking major milestones that can be pointed at to justify those claims, at some point we'll probably need to see something really, truly different and novel, or the bottom could fall out, leaving those who were more careful tip-toeing into this collection of technologies looking less like they're being left behind, and more like they took smart precautions and made safe, reliable investments.Show Noteshttps://www.precedenceresearch.com/us-artificial-intelligence-markethttps://www.statista.com/outlook/tmo/artificial-intelligence/united-stateshttps://techcrunch.com/2024/12/23/ai-startups-attracted-25-of-europes-vc-funding/https://archive.is/20250809000924/https://www.theverge.com/command-line-newsletter/756561/openai-employees-bonus-sam-altman-ai-talent-warshttps://paulkedrosky.com/honey-ai-capex-ate-the-economy/https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/silicon-valley-ai-infrastructure-capex-cffe0431https://archive.is/20250809000924/https://www.theverge.com/command-line-newsletter/756561/openai-employees-bonus-sam-altman-ai-talent-warshttps://archive.is/20250808224658/https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-08-07/tesla-disbands-dojo-supercomputer-team-in-blow-to-ai-efforthttps://fortune.com/2025/08/04/billionaire-anthropic-ceo-dario-amodei-ai-staffers-poaching-meta-mark-zuckerberg-100k-six-figure-salaries-openai-sam-altman/https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c1e02vx55wpohttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/31/business/dealbook/meta-microsoft-ai-spending-shares.htmlhttps://www.techrepublic.com/article/news-meta-billion-dollars-ai-poaching-failed/ This is a public episode.

Send us a textI really didn't have to write much of an intro because I could simply copy the fascinating story in Dave Munson's bio. It resonates with me because it reminds me about how David Clark found so much more happiness, not by making and spending huge amounts of money from his mattress and furniture businesses, but by serving others. I also love how Dave Munson manufactures products that are unique and insanely durable, which has become so rare these days. The story begins in 1999, in a dusty leather shop in Morelia, Mexico, young American Dave Munson slid a hand-drawn sketch across the counter and said, “No breakable parts. I want my grandkids to fight over it when I'm dead.” What a great slogan! That moment sparked the beginning of Saddleback Leather Co. That bag turned heads everywhere it went, and before long, Dave was selling bags on eBay, eventually bringing in family members to help meet demand. With grit, grace, and a business coach, he evolved into the CEO of one of the most recognized leather brands in the world. Today, Saddleback Leather is known for crafting over-engineered full-grain leather goods with a 100-year warranty — built to outlive the owner and become heirlooms.Dave's wife, Suzette, is his true partner in both business and life. Together they raise their two kids and sponsor many more in Rwanda. Suzette also leads Love 41, a sister company to Saddleback that donates 100% of its profits to helping vulnerable communities in Rwanda, Mexico, and Fort Worth, Texas. They also operate the Saddleback Leather Factory, where all of their products are made, and you'll learn here why leather goods make so much more sense for the environment than those made from artificial fibers. Headquartered near Fort Worth — where the Munsons live in safari tents — the company is celebrating more than 20 years in business. For Dave, it was never about getting rich. It's always been about using business as a force for good — to shift the trajectory of poverty-stricken families and create a global ripple effect of hope, one bag at a time. As Dave puts it: “We make the longest lasting, most over-engineered leather bags in the world — and we love people while we do it.” I think it's a really cool mission statement.Dave MunsonSaddlebackleather.comFacebook Saddleback Leather Co.Instagram @saddlebackbagsYouTube @saddlebackleatherBill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @we_are_superman_podcastYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to the We Are Superman Newsletter!https://mailchi.mp/dab62cfc01f8/newsletter-signupSubscribe to our Substack for my archive of articles of coaching tips developed from my more than three decades of experience, wild and funny stories from my long coaching career, the wit and wisdom of David, and highlights of some of the best WASP episodes from the past that I feel are worthwhile giving another listen.Search either We Are Superman Podcast or @billstahl8

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Paul Byrne, President of Razoyo, a Texas-based custom software development company. Paul shared how growing up in an entrepreneurial family in Wichita, Kansas—where his mom ran a fabric shop and his dad tinkered with tech ventures—planted the seeds for his own journey. We discussed how the concept of entrepreneurship has evolved from packing circuit boards around kitchen tables to building viral businesses on TikTok, like his daughter recently did. Paul also highlighted how today's lower barriers to entry create exciting possibilities for aspiring founders, especially those balancing family and other commitments.Paul also walked us through the early days of Razoyo, from helping transform a data-entry business to landing eBay as one of their first clients. He explained how the company now specializes in rescuing struggling software systems, refining prototypes, and building scalable custom applications. Referrals and platform partnerships drive most of Razoyo's business, and Paul emphasized the importance of nurturing relationships with strategic partners over time. He also shared advice for entrepreneurs on choosing a niche—even in unfamiliar industries—by being curious, asking the right questions, and embracing discomfort. Discover Paul Byrne's story of quiet grit, clever pivots, and building Razoyo from the ground up in this episode of The First Customer!Guest Info:Razoyohttp://razoyo.comPaul Byrne's LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/pwbyrne/Want to be a guest on The First Customer?

Samina Virk is the U.S. CEO and chief marketing officer of Vestiaire Collective, a global luxury resale platform. As a young girl, Samina loved fashion. She grew up making her clothes, thinking she might break into the industry on the creative side. Instead, she started her career in tech, working in e-commerce during the dot-com boom. She eventually went back to school to study business in hopes of merging her love for fashion with her tech experience. She joined Target's MBA merchandising program before scoring a full-time job on the company's marketing team. It was there where she dipped her toes into retail, overseeing Target's designer collaborations before taking an interest in the resale market. Samina followed her curiosity to eBay, where she launched the platform's new fashion vertical team, before she ended up at Vestiaire Collective. She helped launch the Paris-based brand in the U.S. market before going on to serve as the U.S. president and global chief marketing officer at Threads, a social-first styling service. She then realized her time at Vestiaire Collective wasn't over and decided to return—this time as North American CEO and CMO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if the key to building a multi-million dollar business had nothing to do with chasing profits and everything to do with genuine relationships? In this episode, Kevin Thompson sits down with entrepreneur, author, and mentor Joel Gandara, who shares his incredible journey from escaping communist Cuba to building and selling a seven-figure apparel empire, all by focusing on people first. Joel's story is about grit, hustle, and the unstoppable power of human connection. Born in Havana, Cuba, Joel and his family emigrated to the United States during the massive 1980 Mariel Boatlift. Growing up poor in California fueled a relentless drive to succeed. From selling trading cards and candy to buying goods at garage sales and selling them at flea markets, Joel was always looking for his big break. That moment came when he discovered Jockey underwear samples at a garage sale, a discovery that years later turned into a multi-million dollar apparel business. By the age of 38, Joel had semi-retired, stepping back from the long work weeks to enjoy life with his wife and kids while coaching others to create their own success. In this episode, he shares how powerful relationships shaped every step of his journey.   [00:00 - 02:45] Introduction: Kevin Sets the Stage • Kevin introduces the Million Dollar Relationships podcast. • He talks about the power of relationships and mentions Tribe for Leaders. • Joel Gandara is welcomed to the show. [02:46 - 04:45] Who Joel Is Today • Joel shares what he does now: running men's and women's personal growth programs, writing a book, and leading 31-day challenges. • Talks about how the programs are changing lives, from improving marriages to helping grandparents raise grandkids better. [04:46 - 08:15] The Cuba Story: From Labor Camps to Miami • Joel recounts being born in Cuba under communism, where his father spent 13 years in a forced labor camp. • Shares the terrifying 12-hour Mariel boat trip to the US, including four hours in dangerous storms, before settling in California. [08:16 - 11:10] Early Hustles: Cards, Chocolates, Flea Markets • As a kid, Joel sells Garbage Pail Kids cards, turning pennies into dollars. • In high school, he sells chocolates and starts doing garage sales. • He finds Jockey underwear samples at a garage sale, buys them for $1 each, and flips them for $6 at flea markets. [11:11 - 13:20] Building Brands and Facing Betrayal • Learned about eBay in 1999, started importing and distributing international brands. • A supplier breaks trust by going direct to Joel's clients, pushing him to start his own brand. • His first brand hit over $1 million in retail sales in about 13 months. [13:21 - 15:50] How Wilfredo in Colombia Changed Everything • Joel shares reading The Secret and then meeting Wilfredo, who owned a factory in Colombia. • Invests $80,000 in his first order — which turns out to be Wilfredo's first production run too. • This relationship builds the foundation for Joel's multi-brand empire. [15:51 - 21:00] Buying 14 Businesses Thanks to Handwritten Notes • Because of Wilfredo, Joel grows into multiple brands and shifts from wholesale to owning ecommerce sites. • Buys a small ecommerce business that leads to 14 acquisitions, almost all through relationships. • He shares how handwritten cards, personal follow-ups, and genuine care made competitors want to sell to him. [21:01 - 33:04] The Power of Relationship Capital • Joel and Kevin dive deeper into how relationships were the key to every major opportunity. • Discuss how small gestures like handwritten notes create lasting impressions. • Kevin relates it to his own experience sending handwritten notes and overnight checks, which led to referrals and stronger partnerships. Key Quotes “Most bad things in my life were just precursors to something great that would come.” — Joel Gandara “Relationships are everything. I've never had a negative reaction from checking in, caring, and sending handwritten notes.” — Joel Gandara “We were poor, but my parents taught me to live simply and save. Those habits helped me build everything.” — Joel Gandara Connect with Joel Gandara Book & 31-Day Challenge: 31dailychallenges.comWebsite: JoelGandara.comLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/joelgandara Facebook: facebook.com/joel.gandara.3 Instagram: @joelgandara   Thanks for tuning in!

When asked to define the word “faith,” the majority of Christians polled at a variety of Christian events and gatherings described it a “blind leap.” But is this idea taught anywhere in the Bible?

The Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture published by IVP promotes a vital link between the varied Christian traditions of today and our common ancient ancestors in the faith. "The initial cry of the Reformation was ad fontes--back to the sources! The Ancient Christian Commentary Series is a marvelous tool for the recovery of biblical wisdom in today's church. Not just another scholarly project, the ACCS is a major source for the renewal of preaching, theology and Christian devotion." — Timothy George"Contemporary pastors do not stand alone. We are not the first generation of preachers to wrestle with the challenges of communicating the gospel. The Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture puts us in conversation with our colleagues from the past, that great cloud of witnesses who preceded us in this vocation. This commentary enables us to receive their deep spiritual insights, their encouragement, and guidance for present-day interpretation and preaching of the Word." — William Willimon Get full access to The Humble Skeptic at www.humbleskeptic.com/subscribe
