Mark Chapman - ChatGPT has adsAre your ads really connecting to engaged couples or just blending in with everyone else? What would happen if you could be the only ad a couple sees while researching their wedding plans on ChatGPT? How do you make sure your ad budget is working smarter, not harder, and actually delivers real results? In this guest episode, I welcome Mark Chapman back to break down the new ChatGPT ads, explore the best ways to target, test, and refine your messaging, and uncover what truly sets your business apart in a crowded digital landscape.Listen to this new episode for actionable strategies to target better, craft standout ads, and make your marketing spend truly count.About MarkMark is the wedding industry's authority on paid advertising.

We break down exactly how ChatGPT's advertising works, including the types of accounts that see ads, budget minimums, and how the context hints feature shapes targeting. Mark Chapman explains where ads appear within user conversations, why there's only one ad per conversation, and how this exclusive real estate can be a real advantage compared to more crowded ad platforms.We get practical by discussing the process of creating strong context hints and why keeping them specific to your service or offer is so important, especially since ChatGPT is different from platforms that let you target age or other demographics. Mark Chapman walks through campaign structure, geographic targeting all the way down to zip codes, and how you can set specific ad runs for time-sensitive promotions like trunk shows. We also get into the creative side, including best practices for headlines, descriptions, and images given the tight character limits in ChatGPT ads.We talk cost and ROI, addressing concerns about minimum spend, click pricing, and how to judge if your investment is yielding meaningful inquiries and bookings. Mark Chapman shares early campaign results, conversion tracking, and A/B testing insights, and together we highlight the value of differentiating your offer in a way that truly stands out. Most importantly, we emphasize that success comes from consistent testing, optimization, and embracing the natural delay between advertising and seeing actual sales in the wedding space.By the end of our conversation, you'll have a clear understanding of whether ChatGPT ads are right for your business, how to approach this evolving platform, and why being an early adopter can give you a competitive edge as more couples are using AI tools for their wedding planning journey.Are you going to Wedding MBA?

Episode SummaryIn this episode of The Yoga Therapy Hour, Amy sits down with Danielle Burke, a certified yoga therapist and licensed professional counselor, to explore what happens when traditional talk therapy meets embodied practice.Danielle shares her journey from mental health counseling into integrative wellness, where she now blends yoga therapy, somatic awareness, and lived experience to support clients in reconnecting with themselves. Together, they explore what it means to feel “stuck in your story,” how breath and body awareness interrupt that pattern, and why self-awareness is not just insight—but a skill that must be practiced.This conversation offers a steady and honest look at anxiety, burnout, overgiving, and the quiet work of learning to trust yourself again. Through the lens of the yamas and niyamas, Danielle brings forward a practical framework for navigating uncertainty, building inner stability, and reducing unnecessary suffering.Key Themes Explored1. When Talk Therapy Isn't EnoughDanielle reflects on her work as a licensed counselor and the moment she recognized something was missing—clients could process their experiences cognitively, but often remained disconnected from their bodies. Yoga therapy offered a way to integrate both.2. The Body as the Entry PointClients often arrive stuck in patterns of thinking, or unable to access their thoughts at all due to overwhelm. Danielle highlights a simple but profound observation: many people stop breathing when recounting difficult experiences. Reconnecting to breath becomes the doorway back to regulation and presence. 3. Self-Awareness as a Practice, Not a TraitAwareness is not assumed—it is cultivated. Through consistent practice, clients begin to recognize their internal states, expand their capacity for choice, and shift from automatic reaction toward intentional response.4. Working with Anxiety Without Trying to Eliminate ItRather than attempting to “fix” anxiety, Danielle reframes the work:Can you recognize it?Can you stay with it?Can you also notice what else is present?This introduces the possibility of holding multiple truths at once, rather than being defined by a single state.5. The Yamas and Niyamas as a Regulatory FrameworkEthical principles such as ahiṃsā (non-harming/kindness) and svādhyāya (self-study) become practical tools for daily living. They support clients in discerning how they want to show up—for themselves and in relationship with others.6. Caregivers, Overachievers, and the Cost of Self-AbandonmentDanielle's primary clients are often women who have spent years supporting others while losing connection to their own needs. The work becomes one of reclaiming worth, voice, and internal alignment.7. Letting Go of Control (Īśvara Praṇidhāna in Practice)Through simple, real-life moments—like dogs barking during a podcast—Danielle illustrates how acceptance reduces suffering. The shift is subtle but powerful:From “this shouldn't be happening” → to “this is happening, and I can still be here.”8. Change Requires Doing Something DifferentInsight alone is not enough. Sustainable change comes through practice, patience, and a willingness to step outside familiar patterns—even when those patterns are uncomfortable.What a Session with Danielle Looks LikeSessions are adaptive and client-centered, typically including:Reflective conversation and active listeningGentle inquiry and pattern recognitionBreath awareness and regulation practicesMovement or physical practice (when appropriate)Yoga Nidra or guided meditationPersonalized tools such as journaling prompts or recorded practicesThe process remains grounded in yoga philosophy while accessible to clients regardless of their familiarity with yoga.Notable Reflections“Awareness gives us choice. And choice gives us power.” “The only way to change is to do something different.” “We can hold more than one experience at the same time.” About Danielle BurkeDanielle Burke is a certified yoga therapist and licensed professional counselor with over a decade of experience in mental health. She now works through an integrative wellness model, combining yoga therapy, somatic practices, and psychological insight to support clients in reconnecting with their bodies, their values, and their sense of self.Based in interior Alaska, Danielle works with clients both in person and online.Connect with Danielle BurkeWebsite: www.inlightandlovewellness.comInstagram: @inlightandloveytLinkedIn: Danielle BurkeClosing ReflectionThis conversation invites a steady reconsideration of how we relate to ourselves. Not through force or perfection, but through awareness, practice, and a willingness to meet what is here—one moment at a time.

Episode SummaryIn this episode of the Two Piers Podcast, Erica D'Eramo is joined by Thea Charles and Bob Greene for a discussion about the power of questions in leadership.Together, they explore why asking better questions is such a valuable skill for leaders, coaches, facilitators, managers, and anyone responsible for helping people think more clearly. The conversation covers open-ended questions, delegation, active listening, performance conversations, team development, and the shift from being the person with the answer to being the person who helps others find their own.Erica, Thea, and Bob also discuss why “why” questions can sometimes create defensiveness, how leaders can use “what” and “how” questions more effectively, and why giving people space to answer is just as important as asking the question itself.In This EpisodeErica, Thea, and Bob discuss:Why powerful questions are a practical leadership skillHow leaders can move away from the pressure to have all the answersThe difference between being a bottleneck and becoming a multiplierHow questions support better delegationWhy open-ended questions often create better insightThe limits of “why” questions in interpersonal conversationsHow to ask questions without leading people toward a predetermined answerWhy space, silence, and follow-up questions matterHow questions can support team ownership, creativity, and problem-solvingWhy coach education can be valuable for leaders, even if they do not plan to become professional coachesKey TakeawayBetter questions help leaders build trust, develop people, and create more ownership across teams.For leaders who are used to being rewarded for having answers, this can be a meaningful shift. The value is no longer only in knowing what to do. It is also in creating the conditions for better thinking, stronger conversations, and more sustainable action.Interested in Building Your Question-Asking Skills?Erica, Thea, and Bob all teach in the University of New Hampshire Certificate in Professional Coaching program.This live online program is designed for people pursuing professional coaching as well as leaders, managers, and professionals who want to bring coaching skills into their work.

Gridiron America is part of the Sports History Network - The Headquarters For Sports Yesteryear.EPISODE SUMMARYIn this episode, we time travel back to November 9, 1946, in the first of our planned public domain time capsule episodes, and put the listener in front of their old school AM radio, as number one ranked Army takes on number two ranked Notre Dame, in a classic game of gridiron trench warfare, at Yankee Stadium, in front of a packed house of 74,121.Going into this match up, both teams were undefeated, and averaged over 30 points a game going into the game. Army had a 25-game winning streak, last losing to Notre Dame in 1943 (26–0), but had won the last two contests between the schools by scores of 59–0 and 48–0. Army had the defending Heisman Trophy winner, Doc Blanchard, also known as "Mr. Inside", the man who would win it that year, Glenn Davis, also known as "Mr. Outside", and one of the nation's top quarterbacks in Arnold Tucker.Notre Dame had the quarterback who would win the Heisman the next year, Johnny Lujack, and end Leon Hart of Notre Dame won the Heisman in 1949 (the only time ever that a college football game had four Heisman Trophy winners). Lujack, along with several other teammates and coach Frank Leahy, had returned to the team for the 1946 season after serving in World War II. Both Tucker and Lujack were also outstanding defensive backs at a time when football players, college as well as professional, usually played both offense and defense.GRIDIRON AMERICA BACKGROUNDGridiron America (formerly, the From the 55 Yardline podcast), is anchored by former sports executive David Cieslinski, former international professional football player Mike Tackett, and football nerd Greg St. James.All three are avid armchair sports historians and sports simulation enthusiasts, who, despite the vastness of geography, have found a way to leverage technology to help keep the games they love truly alive, both on the screen or tabletop.Gridiron America Radio is dedicated to both current and historical American football talk, including the “what if” questions that all sports fans ask and try to answer with the help of statistics, math and computer modeling provided by SportsMaster Simulation Games www.SportsMaster-Simulation.games.

Along the way, he explores Philippians 4:19, the power of trusting God's provision, and why distractions so often pull us away from remembering that we are never walking alone.If you've ever wanted a simple, honest conversation about faith without pressure or perfection, pull up a chair.

Using Philippians 4:19 as the day's reflection, Joe encourages listeners to believe that God provides everything we truly need and reminds us that the greatest challenge is often the distractions that pull us away from that trust.The episode concludes by introducing the upcoming study through John 14 and inviting listeners to walk this journey together, one day at a time.Music by Viktor Sklemin from PixabayWork with Joe Explore More

Carter, founder of Belonging First and a globally recognized expert in neuroscience-based belonging in the workplace.Andrea helps clarify what organizations often mean, and sometimes miss, when they talk about belonging. Rather than treating belonging as a vague culture concept or a checklist of initiatives, Andrea explains how it can be measured and strengthened through five indicators: comfort, connection, contribution, psychological safety, and well-being.Erica and Andrea discuss why belonging matters for trust, motivation, retention, performance, and sustainable ways of working. They also explore common organizational pitfalls, including checkbox belonging, over-reliance on individual resilience solutions, and change efforts that are done to employees rather than with them.In This EpisodeErica and Andrea discuss:What workplace belonging really meansWhy psychological safety is only one part of belongingThe five indicators of belonging: comfort, connection, contribution, psychological safety, and well-beingHow belonging connects to organizational performance and retentionWhy clarity is especially important during onboarding, team changes, and reorganizationsThe “100% responsibility trap” and why belonging requires shared accountabilityWhy resilience tools cannot fix systems that are burning people outHow checkbox belonging can leave daily behaviors unchangedAccessibility, disability, and designing work environments with people in mind from the startWhy AI implementation and other change efforts need co-creation, not just rolloutKey TakeawayBelonging is not something employees should have to earn by decoding the culture, fitting in, or navigating unwritten rules on their own.Organizations can build belonging more intentionally by looking at the systems, expectations, relationships, leadership behaviors, and workload norms that shape how people experience work every day.About Andrea D.

The conversation covers practical classroom strategies for high schoolers, the importance of student autonomy, and how simple adjustments like doodling or movement breaks can transform a student's ability to engage with challenging or tedious tasks.Key Points & HighlightsThe Power of Curiosity: Replacing standard redirections with curious questions (e.g., "Are you thinking or are you stuck?") helps students re-engage without feeling singled out or shamed.The "Neuro-Spicy" Classroom: Strategies like doodling, fidgets, and varied seating (wobbly stools, yoga balls, or spin chairs) are essential tools that help ADHD brains "reset" their attentional systems.Autonomy in High School: Giving older students the choice to opt-out or delay a task often leads to better engagement, as it shifts the dynamic from compliance to personal responsibility.Functional Writing Skills: For 11th and 12th graders, the focus shifts from academic perfection to functional communication, such as emailing a doctor or writing a job application.The Flaw in IEP Goals: Jo-Ann critiques the common IEP phrasing "the student needs to..." and argues that goals should reflect what the educator wants to see, rather than placing the "need" solely on the student.Takeaways & Practical TipsFor Teachers: Use neutral "check-ins" like "Are you with me?" rather than demanding eye contact. If a student is looking away, they may still be listening.For Students: Identify which sensory "muscle" helps you focus—whether it's a specific fidget, standing up for a minute, or taking a strategic "mental break" by looking out the window.Movement as a Tool: Understand that movement helps "wire" the brain to focus. Even a brief walk to the restroom can serve as a necessary cognitive reset.Writing Prompts: Use low-stakes, non-daily writing prompts to build the "writing muscle" without the pressure of a major grade.Resources MentionedRoss Greene's Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS) Model: Referenced for its "What's up?" approach to problem-solving.Classroom Tools: Wobbly stools, yoga balls, spin chairs, and fidget bins.Digital Tools: iPads/Tablets for doodling during lessons or, even better, paper and pencil.Connect With UsWe want to hear from you!

WelcomeHello, lovelies. It's Juliette here.If you feel nothing when your partner touches you, you are not cold and there is nothing wrong with you. This week Andrew and Tristan Tate were arrested in Miami on rape and trafficking charges, which they deny, and which are not proven in court.The Epstein files resurfaced. An old tape of a man bragging about grabbing women played again. While you read it, your body was not only reading headlines. It was gathering evidence about how safe it is to be a woman with a body. So it did the intelligent thing. It braced. A braced body cannot receive, however gentle the hand.This episode is about what lives in the body when we watch this happen and the world shrugs, the manosphere machine that sells young men contempt as masculinity, the good men caught in the middle who genuinely want to help, and how a body that learned to brace comes back: through structure, on your terms, never by surprise.Try tonight (women). Warm, Weight, Where. One hand on your own forearm. Notice the warmth where they meet, let the hand land with its full weight, name the exact edge where you feel it. Ninety seconds of coming back inside a touch that is yours.Try this week (men). Before you touch her, ask, "Can I put my hand here?", and believe her answer.If it is not now, let that be completely fine. No cost, no atmosphere. Ask, believe, no cost.

The pair discussed the importance of bringing transportation ecology to the forefront of state department of transportation projects and how this new training program helps teach state DOT professionals the ins-and-outs of connecting both people and wildlife safely across the northeast.Episode NotesChris Slesar and Alissa Fadden,  join The Stream by AASHTO podcast to discuss “Highways and Habitats,” a video training series created by a partnership between The Nature Conservancy and eight state departments of transportation.In the Northeast, where the training is particularly focused, state DOTs have noticed a recent uptick in changing species patterns as a result of various habitat changes, including increased flooding and road construction. For those state DOTs, it became evident that a more “connected landscape” is necessary to make roads safer while simultaneously improving protections for local ecologies.In this episode, Fadden and Slesar discuss a variety of topics – including how to build cross-border state DOT relationships, the impact of Vermont's original award-winning “Highways and Habitats” training program, regional habitat connectivity successes, and what this new training initiative could mean for state DOTs in other parts of the United States. More information about the program can be found in The Leaflet by AASHTO's June 2026 article about the training.This podcast series is part of the AASHTO Environmental Management technical service program operated by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.

Episode SummaryIn this episode of the Two Piers Podcast, Erica D'Eramo is joined by Christian “Boo” Boucousis, CEO of Afterburner, former fighter pilot, business founder, keynote speaker, and author of The Afterburner Advantage.Boo brings lessons from military aviation into the world of business leadership, with a focus on systems thinking, execution, reflection, and leading under pressure. In this conversation, Erica and Boo explore what it means to lead with intention, especially when the path forward is uncertain.They discuss how systems can create more freedom for leaders and teams by reducing the cognitive load of constantly reinventing the basics. Boo also shares the ORCA method, which stands for Objective, Reality, Cause, and Action, as a practical way to connect planning, reflection, and daily behavior.The conversation also touches on the difference between goals and destinations, why reflection needs to happen frequently enough to be useful, and how leaders can stay focused on what they can control while adapting to what they cannot.In This EpisodeErica and Boo discuss:How fighter pilot mental models can translate into business leadershipWhy systems can create more room for creativity, judgment, and problem-solvingThe difference between managing current operations and leading people into the unknownThe ORCA method: Objective, Reality, Cause, and ActionWhy leaders should compare perception with reality before deciding what to changeHow daily reflection can turn learning into actionThe difference between goals and destinationsWhat “flawless leadership” means in practiceHow success can create pressure, expectations, and unexpected discomfortWhy “not yet” can be a useful way to think about growth and long-term goalsThe value of looking at the environment, not just ourselves, when building awarenessKey TakeawayBoo's final takeaway is to bring intention to two parts of your life: where you are going, and why you are not there yet.That combination captures much of the conversation. Leaders need a clear destination, but they also need a disciplined way to examine the gap between intention and reality. With regular reflection and small adjustments, teams can build momentum over time.About Christian “Boo” BoucousisChristian “Boo” Boucousis is the CEO of Afterburner, a former fighter pilot, keynote speaker, business founder, and author of The Afterburner Advantage.

The questions on their mind are simple but brutal: who are you, what do you offer, why should anyone care, and why pick you over the other options in a 5–10 mile radius or the app on their phone?You'll see how to make those answers obvious in your client-facing assets and then stack on pre-selling tools like simple guides, PDFs, and pre-appointment touchpoints that actually educate people before they ever sit down with you.

Former NHL forward and Rockford IceHogs assistant coach Rob Klinkhammer joins Adam Lane to break down how a late-blooming junior turned himself into a 15-year pro through strength training, nutrition, and lifestyle discipline. Episode SummaryIn this Happy Healthy Strong x Oak Performance Radio crossover, Adam Lane sits down with former NHLer and current Rockford IceHogs assistant coach Rob Klinkhammer to discuss what truly drives long-term development. Rob walks through how he went from an average junior player who almost quit at 19 to carving out a 15-year pro career by tightening up his training, dialing in his food, and stripping out distractions.From there, they connect the dots to parenting and coaching: how those same principles now shape the way Rob develops AHL prospects for the Chicago Blackhawks and raises four boys to be active, resilient, and healthy for life. If you're a parent, coach, or athlete who wants real talk on performance, family, and health, this conversation lines up perfectly with the Happy Healthy Strong philosophy.Key TakeawaysWhy Rob's entire career shifted when he stopped “going through the motions” and fully committed to training, nutrition, and sleep at age 19–20.How AHL coaches actually think about player development, roles, and what it takes to make the jump to the NHL.Why fundamentals in both hockey skills and strength training beat flashy “Instagram drills” every time.How to safely introduce strength training to kids without chasing max weights or wrecking their bodies.How Rob and his wife structure breakfast, dinners, snacks, and on-the-go eating for four active boys.Why recovery, mobility, and injury prevention (hips, knees, shoulders, ankles) are non-negotiable for hockey players.How tools like sauna, cold exposure, and even manual labor fit into a bigger picture of resilience and long-term health.Rob's parenting lens: focus on building the best human possible, not “raising an NHLer,” and let performance be a byproduct.Episode Chapters00:00 Intro & show setup00:33 Rob's background & late-bloomer story02:18 From player to pro coach05:05 What pro players need from coaches07:13 Structure vs skills at the AHL level10:07 Roles, projection, and making the NHL13:06 Junior hockey, injury, almost quitting16:20 The year everything changed (training & lifestyle)19:38 Strength, power, and in-season work22:22 Overtraining and real-world conditioning27:01 Youth hockey and off-ice basics31:21 Fundamentals vs Instagram drills33:57 Free play, movement, and athletics38:33 How Rob's family actually eats43:16 Breakfast, snacks, and labels48:58 Being intentional, not obsessive51:46 Sauna, cold, and recovery at home56:47 Parenting four boys & expectationsAbout the GuestRob Klinkhammer is a former professional hockey player turned coach, with a 15-year career that spans the NHL, AHL, and KHL, plus an appearance at the Olympics.

Episode SummaryIn this episode of the Two Piers Podcast, Erica D'Eramo welcomes back author, creative coach, and facilitator GG Renee Hill for a conversation about writing, creativity, identity, and the stories we carry.GG's latest book, Story Work: Field Notes on Self Discovery and Reclaiming Your Narrative, explores how inherited beliefs and limiting stories shape the way we see ourselves, make decisions, and move through the world. Together, Erica and GG discuss how writing can help us uncover those stories, examine whether they still serve us, and reconnect with our own voice and values.In this episode, they explore:How writing can support healing, self-understanding, and personal clarityThe stories we inherit from family, culture, and earlier experiencesHow limiting beliefs become embedded in our behaviorThe three sections of Story Work: Roots and Origins, Truth and Lies, and Voice and VisionCreativity as something much broader than traditional artistic expressionHow perfectionism and the inner critic can interfere with journaling and creative workThe value of practicing imperfection and allowing work to remain messy or unfinishedWhy the process of creating can matter more than the final resultGG also shares her own path from corporate America into writing, coaching, and facilitation. She reflects on how therapy and journaling helped her discover “the story beneath the story” and eventually led her toward work centered on creative expression, self-discovery, and community.One of the central takeaways from the episode is that writing does not need to be polished, impressive, or intended for anyone else. It can simply be a place to witness yourself more honestly.As Erica puts it: don't deprive the world of your imperfect mess.About GG Renee HillGG Renee Hill is an author, creative coach, and facilitator whose work explores writing as a pathway to wellness, personal clarity, creativity, and collective growth.She is the author of:Story Work: Field Notes on Self Discovery and Reclaiming Your NarrativeThe Self-Care Check-InA Year of Self-ReflectionGG also facilitates writing workshops, creative writing cohorts, monthly writing prompts, and free public writing sessions designed to help people reconnect with their voices in a supportive, low-pressure environment.Connect with GG Renee HillVisit All the Many Layers: https://www.allthemanylayers.com/Subscribe to GG's weekly newsletter and Substack, Writing the Layers: https://thelayers.substack.com/Follow GG on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ggreneewritesConnect with GG on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gina-gg-renee-hill-28686762/Through All the Many Layers, you can also learn more about GG's monthly writing prompts, First Friday free-writing sessions, workshops, creative writing cohorts, and other resources for writers and anyone interested in reflective creative practice.More from Two PiersLearn more about Two Piers Consulting: https://www.twopiersconsulting.comBrowse podcast episodes, summaries, and transcripts: https://www.twopiersconsulting.com/podcastAffiliate disclosure: Some book links in this post are Bookshop.org affiliate links.

Episode SummaryIn this insightful solo episode, Kenny Jahng reflects on his journey using AI tools over the past several years. Drawing from personal experience, Kenny Jahng distills five core lessons for maximizing the benefits of AI—making you faster at tedious work and better at the tasks that truly matter. From the importance of clarity and personal judgment to treating AI as a partner (not just a tool), Kenny Jahng provides practical wisdom for leaders and knowledge workers eager to leverage AI without losing their distinct value.Key Topics DiscussedEvolution of AI in Everyday WorkKenny Jahng shares how AI shifted from a novelty to an essential part of his daily workflow, now open almost all the time when working 00:00:49.Lesson 1: Clarity is KeyAI can only amplify the clarity you bring. If your thoughts are fuzzy, AI will return fuzzy results 00:02:05. You must be clear about your objectives before prompting AI.Lesson 2: The Importance of Human JudgmentThe most valuable skill isn't prompt crafting, but applying your own expertise to evaluate AI outputs 00:04:04. AI produces confidence, but discernment determines value.Lesson 3: AI Excels at the 80%—You Finish the Last MileAI is great for rough drafts and rapid ideation, but the final polish relies on your intervention 00:06:42.Lesson 4: Make AI Argue With You Don't accept output at face value—treat AI as a sparring partner, asking it to poke holes in your logic for deeper insights 00:08:44.Lesson 5: Guard Your DiscernmentThe biggest risk is outsourcing your thinking to AI and losing the muscle of discernment 00:12:04. Deliberate growth, reflection, and collaboration with humans are essential.Notable Quotes“AI is only as clear as you are yourself.” 00:02:05“Your judgment is the skill that matters the most.” 00:04:04“AI sprints with you... But that last mile, the last half mile is the crazy hard part that's on you.” 00:06:42“You must make AI argue with you. You have to pick a fight.” 00:08:44“The real risk is outsourcing your discernment at the end of the day.” 00:12:04“Is it making me wiser or is it making me busier? That's a question I'm constantly asking.” 00:16:45Resources & RecommendationsGoogle NotebookLM: Mentioned as a tool for building personas, creating a board of advisors, and setting up AI as a more challenging counterpart 00:10:48.Personal Growth Practices: Kenny Jahng emphasizes the importance of reading books, listening to podcasts, and learning from real experts, beyond AI-generated responses 00:13:52.Encouragement to Connect: Listeners are invited to share their own lessons or questions about AI by emailing kenny@churchtechtoday.com 00:17:07.For more episodes and resources, visit Church Tech Today.Let me know if you need these notes in a different format or want summaries for additional recordings!

What happens when two people who spend their careers thinking about human behaviour meet in a London pub and start complaining about conferences? Apparently, they decide to organise one.Episode SummaryIn this episode I'm joined by David Grosse, founder of behavioural risk advisory firm Behavor, to talk about The Unconvention, an event we're creating together that aims to rethink how conversations about risk, culture and human behaviour actually happen. But this isn't just an episode about an event.David and I explore why organisations continue to treat behavioural risk as a niche topic, despite human decision-making sitting at the heart of almost every organisational failure. We discuss why so many conferences on culture and conduct feel formulaic, why measuring culture through board packs can miss the point entirely, and why stories often reveal far more than statistics ever can.Along the way we touch on Silicon Valley Bank, Plato's Cave, behavioural science, organisational culture, productive discomfort, and why the best events might leave you with fewer certainties than when you arrived.If you're curious about The Unconvention, or simply interested in why we think there has to be a better way to have these conversations, I hope you'll enjoy listening.LinksDavid on LinkedIn David's company Behavor The Unconvention Website and ticketing site.AI-Generated Timestamped summary00:00 – Christian introduces the episode and explains how a conversation in a London pub led to the creation of The Unconvention.02:20 – David shares his journey from chartered accountant and banker to behavioural risk specialist, and explains why human behaviour became the focus of his work.05:30 – Why behavioural risk still isn't taken as seriously as other forms of risk, despite sitting behind so many organisational failures.11:30 – Christian and David discuss what's wrong with many industry conferences, from scripted panels to sponsor-led agendas, and why they rarely change anyone's thinking.18:00 – The conversation turns to culture, governance and why dashboards and board packs can never fully capture human behaviour.24:30 – Stories, rather than statistics alone, often provide the richest insights into how organisations really work.29:00 – The origins of The Unconvention and the principles behind creating an event that deliberately breaks with conference convention35:30 – Why attendees are being invited to help shape the event, and how behavioural thinking has influenced everything from the format to the ticketing model.42:00 – Christian and David discuss what they hope participants will take away: curiosity, productive discomfort and conversations that continue long after the event ends.48:45 – Final details on The Unconvention, where to find David, and the unexpectedly simple story behind the name "Behavor".
