Verändere täglich deine Gewohnheiten. Verändere täglich deine Gewohnheiten. Bleib dran, es ist so wichtig. Schaff neue Synapsen, schaff neue Synergien, schaff neue Neuronenbahnen. Das macht einen riesengroßen Unterschied aus. Weißt du, dass wir Menschen immer wieder das Gleiche machen? Kennst du das? Wir essen immer wieder das Gleiche, wir gehen immer wieder in die gleichen Lokale, wir treffen uns immer wieder mit den gleichen Leuten, wir gehen immer an die gleichen Orte in Urlaub. Alles ist immer gleich. Wir sitzen immer am gleichen Ort beim Essen. Alles ist geregelt, alles ist immer gleich. Weißt du, wie langweilig das ist? Weißt du, wie du da in die Routine reinkommst? Die Challenge ist, immer wieder da rauszugehen. Die Challenge ist, immer wieder in die Veränderung zu gehen, immer wieder zu wechseln. Gehe an neue Orte, besuche neue Lokale, iss andere Sachen. Mach dich auf den Weg, sei experimentierfreudig. Das ist so toll, das ist so schön. Das macht was mit dir, es gibt dir bessere Gefühle, weil du sonst in den Trott reinkommst. Jahrzehntelang der gleichen Arbeit nachzugehen, mein Gott, weißt du, wie das abstumpft? Weißt du, wie das fertig macht? Dann nach Hause kommen, immer das gleiche Essen und dann Filzpantoffeln, Flasche Bier, Fernseher, die drei berühmten Fs, jeden Abend das Gleiche und jedes Wochenende immer wieder dasselbe. Ändere es. Nimm eine Bucketliste oder eine Löffelliste. Schreib mal auf: Was wolltest du schon lange machen? Auch kleine Dinge. Und dann mach es. Geh es an, geh in die Veränderung. Das macht so viel, weil du sonst eingefahren bist. Und wenn du eingefahren bist, dann wirst du irgendwann alt. Du bist nicht mehr flexibel, du bist nicht mehr belastbar. Du bist es einfach nicht mehr. Schau mal, Donnerstag war ich in Frankfurt beim Matchforum. Weißt du was? Ich stehe auf, es schneit. Eigentlich hatte ich keinen Bock, da hinzugehen. Ich habe zu mir gesagt: Weißt du was, mach einen gemütlichen Tag im Büro. Sag einfach ab. Und ich bin froh, dass ich es nicht gemacht habe. Ich bin froh, dass ich mich aufgerafft habe. Da komme ich in das Hotel. Neues Hotel. Neue Leute, bis auf ein paar, die ich kannte. Alles neu. Auf der Bühne. Alles neu. Kennst du das? Ich habe einen Preis dafür bezahlt, dass ich nicht zu Hause gemütlich im Büro war. Aber das, was ich gewonnen habe, war ein Vielfaches höher. Was habe ich gewonnen? Ich habe jede Menge neue Leute kennengelernt. Fantastische Leute. Ich habe alte Bekannte wiedergesehen. Ich durfte sie in meine TV-Erfolgssendung einladen. Ich durfte sie auf meine Seminare einladen. Ich durfte über mein ÄHM-Seminar in St. Moritz sprechen. Ich habe Anmeldungen darüber bekommen. Und durch meinen Freund Ronny Barthel, der dort war, es gibt ja keine Zufälle, habe ich fantastische, großartige Fotos erhalten. Supergeil genetzwerkt. Merkst du was? Wenn du rausgehst, wenn du in die Welt hinausgehst, hast du so eine geile Experience. Du lernst neue Leute, neue Dinge, neue Situationen kennen. Das sind die Dinge, die dich weiterbringen. Denk mal darüber nach: Wie oft machst du etwas Neues? Wie oft liest du mal was anderes? Geh mal auf andere Seminare. Geh auf Schulungen. Lies mal was anderes. Nicht immer das Gleiche. Das ist ein riesengroßer Unterschied. Und so bleibst du flexibel. So bleibst du jung. Wenn ich viele in meinem Alter anschaue, bei denen ist das Leben schon gelaufen. Was kommt heute Abend im Fernsehen? Wie ist das Wetter? Weißt du was? Mir ist das sowas von scheißegal, wie das Wetter ist. Ja, es ist grau in grau. Eigentlich ist das Wetter bescheuert. Und? Ich kann nicht das Wetter ändern, aber ich kann meine Einstellung ändern. Du bist herzlich eingeladen. Komm nach Bad Dürkheim. Komm zu den Seminaren: Selbstständigkeit, Unternehmertum, neue Wege, Geld zu verdienen. Hör auf zu jammern. Es gibt so viele geile Wege, Geld zu verdienen. Geh in die Selbstständigkeit. Bau dir ein Unternehmen auf. Es liegt an dir. Wenn du aber zu Hause hockst und auf ein Wunder wartest, kannst du lange warten. Komm nach St. Moritz. AM-Seminar. Top sprechen zu können. Ich freue mich auf dich. Raus aus dem Alltag. Raus aus der Routine. Rein in eine wunderschöne Welt. In diesem Sinne: Tschüss, bye-bye, dein Ernst. #Veränderung #Gewohnheiten #Mindset #Erfolg #Persönlichkeitsentwicklung #Podcast #Weiterentwicklung #RausAusDerRoutine #NeueWege #Flexibilität #Unternehmertum #Selbstständigkeit #Seminare #ErnstCrameri #Ergebnisorientiert Hier findest du eine Übersicht aller aktuellen Seminare https://crameri.de/Seminare Bild: Hotel Adlon in Berlin Crameri-Akademie Wenn Du mehr über diesen Artikel erfahren möchtest, dann solltest Du Dich unbedingt an der folgenden Stelle in der Crameri-Akademie einschreiben.

Episode Summary: In this episode of the Solar Maverick Podcast, Benoy Thanjan sits down with Hervé Billet, CEO and co-founder of Sunvoy, the first white-label customer portal and fleet management app built by solar installers for solar installers. Hervé shares his entrepreneurial journey, from helping design Belgium's first solar car to building and selling a solar installation company in the U.S., and now leading Sunvoy. The conversation covers what solar companies need to do to create long-term enterprise value, how branding and systems drive successful exits, and why clean accounting, process, and operational discipline matter if you want to sell a business. Benoy and Hervé also discuss how Sunvoy helps installers improve operations by bringing critical project and O&M data into one place, reducing time spent hunting for information and improving the customer experience. They also explore current solar industry trends, including the shift toward Third Party Ownership (“TPOs”) and leases, rising electricity prices as a driver of solar adoption, technology improvements in solar hardware and storage, and why installer-built software creates a real competitive advantage. Biographies Benoy Thanjan Benoy Thanjan is the Founder and CEO of Reneu Energy, solar developer and consulting firm, and a strategic advisor to multiple cleantech startups. Over his career, Benoy has developed over 100 MWs of solar projects across the U.S., helped launch the first residential solar tax equity funds at Tesla, and brokered $45 million in Renewable Energy Credits (“REC”) transactions. Prior to founding Reneu Energy, Benoy was the Environmental Commodities Trader in Tesla's Project Finance Group, where he managed one of the largest environmental commodities portfolios. He originated REC trades and co-developed a monetization and hedging strategy with senior leadership to enter the East Coast market. As Vice President at Vanguard Energy Partners, Benoy crafted project finance solutions for commercial-scale solar portfolios. His role at Ridgewood Renewable Power, a private equity fund with 125 MWs of U.S. renewable assets, involved evaluating investment opportunities and maximizing returns. He also played a key role in the sale of the firm's renewable portfolio. Earlier in his career, Benoy worked in Energy Structured Finance at Deloitte & Touche and Financial Advisory Services at Ernst & Young, following an internship on the trading floor at D.E. Shaw & Co., a multi billion dollar hedge fund. Benoy holds an MBA in Finance from Rutgers University and a BS in Finance and Economics from NYU Stern, where he was an Alumni Scholar. Hervé Billet As the CEO of Sunvoy, I'm committed to empowering solar businesses with innovative technology that streamlines operations and enhances customer experience. Sunvoy is the first white-label customer portal and fleet management app, built by solar installers for solar installers. Our platform simplifies the complexities of running a solar business, enabling companies to scale efficiently with seamless integration and effortless results. Sunvoy offers powerful tools to manage solar fleets, automate communication, and deliver an exceptional customer journey, helping companies thrive in an increasingly competitive market. Previously, I served as the CEO of Ipsun Solar, where we revolutionized the residential and commercial solar market by enabling customers to own their power, reduce their utility bills, and add value to their properties through clean, renewable energy. Ipsun Solar, a B-Corporation, was known for its commitment to sustainability, being part of the Amicus and Amicus O&M networks, and serving as a certified Tesla Powerwall installer. Before venturing into the solar industry, I worked at Accenture, where I consulted with Fortune 500 companies, U.S. Federal agencies, and large non-profits. My projects included: Calculating Greenhouse Gas emissions for the U.S. Department of Energy Headquarters. Business development for Accenture's Sustainability Services. Leading digital implementation teams for organizations like Goodwill Industries International. Providing strategic support to global institutions such as the IMF, World Bank, UNICEF, United Nations, and U.S. Department of Labor. At 21, I co-founded my first company, Solar Team, an initiative to showcase the power of solar energy through solar-powered vehicles. This early venture sparked my enduring passion for renewable energy and continues to inspire my work today.

Es gibt so viele schlechte Dienstleister. Es ist eine Katastrophe. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass es immer schlimmer wird. Seit wir diese C-Störung hatten, ist irgendwas in den Menschen passiert. Es wird immer noch gejammert, alle sprechen immer noch von Krise, alles sei furchtbar, schrecklich, schlimm. Dabei ist es unsere Einstellung. Wenn du als Dienstleister, als Selbstständiger, als Unternehmer wieder den Kunden in den Mittelpunkt stellst, wenn du wieder kundenfreundlich bist und anfängst, deine Kunden zu begeistern, dann wirst du viel mehr Kunden haben. Die Kunden kommen gerne zu dir, weil sie dich dafür lieben werden. Und das ist gar nicht so schwierig. Denn die meisten sind einfach schlecht unterwegs. Den meisten ist immer alles zu viel. Was ist also der Unterschied? Geh die extra Meile. Geh immer die extra Meile für deine Kunden. Begeistere deine Kunden. Und hör auf mit deiner ewigen Jammerei. Ich kann es nicht mehr hören: Jammern, jammern, jammern. Es gibt keine guten Mitarbeiter. Das stimmt einfach nicht. Es gibt keine guten Chefs. Das ist das Problem. Die meisten Chefs und Unternehmer sind so schlecht. Sie sind das Problem. Wenn du Mitarbeiter bist und das siehst, kannst du es ruhig deinem Chef weitergeben. Und ich weiß, ich werde jetzt einige Freunde weniger haben. Einige werden mich dafür hassen. Weißt du was? Das ist mir echt egal. Es ist dein Business, es ist dein Leben. Einige werden sagen: Ja, das stimmt. Andere werden sagen: Danke für die klaren Worte. Du wirst nie Everybody's Darling sein. Never ever. Musst du auch nicht. Das ist nicht deine Aufgabe. Aber schau, dass du für deine Fans eine super Dienstleistung ablieferst. Dass sie dich lieben. Dass sie gerne wiederkommen. Und denk dran: Da, wo die anderen aufhören, da fängst du an. Das ist der Unterschied. Dazu eine kleine Geschichte von meiner Oma. Meine Oma hatte einen Bauernhof in St. Moritz. Im Winter war es eiskalt. Es gab keine Zentralheizung, nur einen Ofen im Zimmer. Und meine Oma sagte zu mir: „Ernst, bevor du schläfst, leg noch ein Brikett auf." Und was dachte der kluge Ernst? Nö, warum? Es ist doch warm. Und irgendwann ging nachts der Ofen aus. Am Morgen war es eiskalt. Du hast deinen Atem gesehen, und an der Wand war Eis. Nur weil ich zu faul war, noch ein Brikett aufzulegen. Nimm diese Geschichte mit: Leg du immer noch ein Brikett drauf. Geh die extra Meile. Mach die Kirsche auf das Sahnehäubchen. Begeistere Menschen. Du wirst nicht alle begeistern. Es gibt immer welche, die etwas zu motzen haben. Aber geh deinen Weg unbeirrbar. Lass dich nicht irritieren. Von niemandem. Auch nicht von dir. Und wenn alle meinen, sie hätten eine Krise, dann lass sie ihre Krise haben. Wenn alle sagen, seit C sei alles anders geworden: Ja, es ist anders geworden. Und? Wie lange willst du noch darüber jammern? Es ist vorbei. Und glaub mir: Bald kommt die nächste Geschichte. Und dann? Wieder Krise? Wieder Opferrolle? Du bist kein Opfer. Du bist in dem Moment kein Opfer mehr, in dem du dein Leben in die eigenen Hände nimmst. Und ich darf dir sagen: Dadurch verändert sich alles. Wenn du mehr darüber wissen willst, wenn du wieder Power in deinen Laden bringen willst, wenn du dich selbstständig machen willst oder merkst, mein Geschäft läuft nicht, dann komm nach Bad Dürkheim zum Seminar Selbstständigkeit und Unternehmertum. Du bist eingeladen. Du bist mein Gast. Warum mache ich das? Weil ich gerne etwas zurückgebe. Weil mein Beitrag ist, die Welt ein Stück besser zu machen. Menschen Mut zu machen, ihr Leben in die eigenen Hände zu nehmen. Du kannst entscheiden, ob du weiter jammerst, irgendwann zumachst und pleitegehst oder ob du sagst: Ich mache hier nochmal richtig Attacke. Denn es sind nicht die großen Dinge, die die große Veränderung bringen. Es sind die kleinen Stellschrauben. Oder komm ins VIP-Coaching. Dann bauen wir dein System komplett neu auf. Ich freue mich auf dich. Danke fürs Teilen, danke fürs Kommentieren. Geh auf crameri.de, schau es dir an und melde dich an.

Wir begehen die 251. Zusammenkunft von „Verkocht & Abgedreht“ – und man spürt: Über diesem Werk liegt inzwischen ein Hauch des Mystischen. Und doch sind Koch und Fernsehmann keine Zauberer, sondern Männer von ganz gewöhnlichem Schlag. Bruder Recky bringt uns Kunde aus den dampfenden Hallen der Küche, berichtet von Flammen, Pfannen und jenen kleinen Dramen zwischen Salz und Saucenspiegel. Seine Erzählungen sind wie Gewürze: pikant, überraschend, mitunter scharf, doch stets nahrhaft für Geist und Gaumen. Bruder Daniel hingegen schreitet durch die Gewölbe des unnützen Wissens, beladen mit Fakten, die kein Mensch zu brauchen scheint – und die doch in ihrer Absurdität leuchten wie kleine Kerzen in der Dunkelheit. Er trägt sie mit Ernst und Hingabe, als wären es heilige Schriftrollen, und siehe da: Auch das scheinbar Überflüssige findet seinen Platz im großen Gefüge. So erkennen wir, Brüder und Schwestern: Das Mystische erwächst nicht aus Übernatürlichem, sondern aus Beständigkeit. Aus der wiederkehrenden Stimme. Aus der Treue zum eigenen Klang. Aus der Gemeinschaft, die lauscht. Und aus dem Gewöhnlichen erwächst, mit der Zeit, etwas beinahe Heiliges… Reinhören, Recky & Daniel

Donna McGeorge is a speaker, bestselling author and productivity provocateur who has spent her career helping people and organisations stop drowning in complexity and start focusing on what really matters. Donna McGeorge Donna's journey is as eclectic as it is impactful. She began her career managing theatre and concert tours across the UK, where she learned the art of engaging audiences, telling compelling stories and keeping the show moving no matter what. From there, she shifted to the corporate stage, leading organisational development for global giants like Ford in Shanghai. It was here she saw first-hand how leaders and teams overload themselves with unnecessary effort, systems and processes that do little more than drain energy. Today, Donna works with organisations around the world, with a trademark blend of no-nonsense practicality and good humour. She has a knack for making complex ideas feel not only simple but also irresistibly doable. She is the author of more than a dozen books, including her acclaimed It's About Time series, the bestselling ChatGPT Revolution, and her latest work, “Red Brick Thinking”. Donna's insights have been featured on Channel 9's Today show, Channel 7's Sunrise, and in respected publications including Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Fast Company, Smart Company, The Age and Boss Magazine. Clients who trust Donna with their people include L'Oréal, Unilever, Jetstar, Ernst & Young, Seek, Xero, and the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood. Red Brick Thinking “Red Brick Thinking” emerged serendipitously from her LEGO bridge workshop, where participants instinctively added a brick to fix an uneven structure instead of removing one. This revealed a deep “addition bias”—the reflex to solve problems by adding more. The red brick became a metaphor for questioning that instinct and asking: what could we remove instead, to solve problems? The author positions Red Brick Thinking as a mindset manifesto rather than a traditional how-to guide, organising the book into emotional, structural, and cultural “red bricks”. Each chapter invites readers to examine hidden habits shaped by consumerism, inherited scarcity, and workplace norms, and to rethink how subtracting entrenched behaviours can solve problems, restore energy and balance through intentional living. Donna believes that subtraction is at one level simple to contemplate, but perhaps harder to execute, especially with “big red bricks” embedded in identity, systems, and relationships. She recommends starting with small removals to build momentum, creating space for transformational change. Ultimately, the movement aims to help people reclaim time and meaning—making decisions today that their future selves will thank them for. Run time – 00:51:02 mins.

Warum ist Amazon so erfolgreich? Knallharte Wahrheit. Ich höre immer wieder die Sprüche: „Amazon macht alle kaputt. Amazon zerstört die kleinen Geschäfte." Nein, es ist nicht Amazon. Es sind die kleinen Geschäfte, die sich selber zerstören, weil sie keine Dienstleistungen anbieten, weil sie nicht taff unterwegs sind, weil sie nicht Gas geben. Kleines Beispiel: Ich warte seit drei Monaten auf zwei Schlafanzüge. Und jedes Mal heißt es nur: „Lieferschwierigkeiten." Krise hier, Krise da, ich kann dieses Kasperletheater nicht mehr hören. Gestern Abend hatte ich die Faxen dicke. Ich bin wieder hin und sage: Ich hätte jetzt langsam gerne die Schlafanzüge. „Ja, wir sind dran… dauert noch…" Das erzählen sie mir seit Monaten. Also: Gestern Abend bei Amazon bestellt, heute waren die Schlafanzüge da. Schlicht und einfach. Kein Stress. Niemandem hinterher rennen. Und wenn es nicht passt: Zurückschicken, ohne Diskussion und das Geld ist sofort wieder da. Merkst du was? Amazon hat eins verstanden: Dienstleistungen hoch zwei. Für Jeff Bezos ist das Allerwichtigste: Top-Dienstleistung, Kunden begeistern, Kunden zufrieden machen. Das ist der Unterschied. Früher in der Buchhandlung: Du kommst rein und du wartest. Vor dir Kunden, die ewig beraten werden. Dann bist du dran, dann wird bestellt, dann heißt es: „Kommen Sie in zwei, drei Tagen wieder." Du kommst und wie oft war das Buch nicht da? Weißt du, was ich heute mache? Ich gehe zu Amazon, ich schaue, ich bestelle, am nächsten Tag habe ich es. Und nochmal: Zeit ist das wertvollste Gut, das wir haben. Warum soll ich meine Zeit verschwenden? Und dann kommen wieder die Ausreden: „Ja, wir finden keine Mitarbeiter…" Jammer, jammer, jammer. Dann macht man es halt anders: online, Lieferservice, besondere Dienstleistung. Wo ist das Problem, abends nach Feierabend die bestellten Bücher auszuliefern oder in Briefkästen zu werfen? Dann hast du begeisterte Kunden. Und bei Rückgaben? „Packung ist auf… geht nicht…" Bei Amazon kein Thema. Es funktioniert. Du hast keinen Stress. Es läuft. Und du bekommst als Kunde gute Gefühle. Genau deshalb bestellen so viele dort. Denk mal darüber nach: Wie kannst du deine Dienstleistung verbessern, damit Kunden nicht nur kaufen, sondern Fans werden? Und sag nicht: „Bei uns ist alles anders." Wenn du tiefer einsteigen willst: Komm nach Bad Dürkheim zum Seminar Selbstständigkeit & Unternehmertum im April und hol dir einen komplett neuen Blick auf Dienstleistung, Kundenbegeisterung und neue Wege, Geld zu verdienen. In diesem Sinne: tschüss, bye bye, dein Ernst. #Amazon #Erfolg #Dienstleistung #Kundenservice #Kundenerlebnis #CustomerExperience #Unternehmertum #Selbstständigkeit #BusinessMindset #Kundenbindung #ServiceQualität #ZeitIstGeld #Onlinehandel #Verkauf #Marketing #BadDürkheim #Seminar #NeueWegeGeldZuVerdienen #Ernstcrameri #JeffBezos Hier findest du eine Übersicht aller aktuellen Seminare https://crameri.de/Seminare Bild: 7.

Come da tradizione anche quest'anno sono passati dal nostro truck in Corso Imperatrice, Ernst & Frau Knam per raccontarci il dolce per il vincitore di quest'anno!
Stale Verhale in De Loodzware Jongens! Deze keer te gast: Eddy Bopp, oprichter en gitarist van Vandale – dé hardrockband die in de jaren '70 al koos voor teksten in het Nederlands. Oubollig? Of juist visionair? Met klassiekers als Geitenwollensokkerockers en Rot Op nemen we de oudere luisteraars mee terug naar die glorieuze jaren '80. Maar… wat gebeurde er ná die hoogtijdagen?

Mindy Diamond on Independence: A Podcast for Financial Advisors Considering Change
With Jim Dickson — Founding Partner and CEO, Elevation Point Overview Louis Diamond speaks with the founder and CEO of Elevation Point about building a next-generation independent platform focused on ownership, minority capital, data strategy, and scalable, durable advisory firms.

Watch… https://youtu.be/D0-y8Q-DYvg About this episode… For decades, advisors operated under the assumption that there was a single path to success—a defined route dominated by the largest and most prominent firms. Over time, the landscape of options expanded, and the independent space matured. With it came a new set of challenges: how to turn the pursuit of freedom and control into something durable, scalable, and ultimately into a true enterprise. Jim Dickson has been thinking through that challenge for most of his career. After two decades at Merrill, Jim went on to found Sanctuary Wealth (a story we shared earlier in this series), where he played a central role in shaping what supportive independence could look like for growing advisory teams. Today, his own journey has entered a new chapter with Elevation Point—a next-generation independent platform focused on helping advisors take business ownership to a new level, with alignment, scalability, and long-term value at the core. In this episode, Jim and Louis Diamond talk about what led Jim to this new chapter, including: Elevation Point's unique value proposition—and how it fills a gap in the landscape. The value of capital—and how Elevation Point adds value along the way. Increasing enterprise value—and what advisors can do to grow without sacrificing control. Ownership and alignment—and why “how much of the pie you actually own” becomes more important as firms grow. Growth and partnership—and what it really means to build a firm intentionally over time. AI, data, and technology—and how each can support better decision-making. This is a story about yet another evolution in the landscape of options available to advisors—and why the future of independence is less about exits and more about elevation.

An Advisor's Guide to 2026: What 2025 Set in Motion and What Comes NextAs 2026 comes into focus, advisors face a new set of strategic questions. This Industry Update explores the forces reshaping growth, deal structures, and enterprise value—and what those shifts may signal for the new year and beyond. JIM DICKSON FOUNDING PARTNER AND CEO Jim Dickson is a seasoned executive, entrepreneur, private investor, and innovator in wealth management with over four decades of experience in the financial services industry. Renowned for his advocacy for independent financial advisors, Jim is a visionary leader with experience in designing and implementing high-growth strategies for advisory firms. Jim's deep understanding of the industry landscape positions him as a driving force behind transformative change, empowering advisors and firms to thrive in an ever-evolving marketplace. His growth mindset for RIAs and independence-seeking advisors prioritizes an “advisor-first” approach, tailored to an advisor's values and long-term vision. Jim co-founded Elevation Point with Mark Penske in 2024 to serve as a value-aligned growth partner to independence-focused advisors and RIAs. Jim previously founded and built nationally recognized wealth management firm Sanctuary Wealth, which he launched in 2018. He was the visionary behind Sanctuary Wealth's Partnered IndependenceSM platform, providing elite advisors with all of the tools, services, and resources needed to fully and effectively serve their clients. Under Jim's leadership, it grew rapidly into one of the industry's top RIA firms, with more than $25 billion in assets and 76 partner firms in 28 states by 2023, when he left the firm. Prior to Sanctuary Wealth, Jim spent 20 years as a senior divisional executive building and leading strategy for Merrill Lynch in Indianapolis and Chicago. He began his career as an accountant at Ernst & Young in Indianapolis. Jim received his bachelor's degree in accounting and finance from Butler University, where he later served on the Board of Trustees for six years. He has been a leadership conference judge for FFA, a national non-profit organization preparing middle and high school students for careers in agricultural science, business, and technology.

In this episode of the Inventive Journey, host Devin Miller sits down with Abraham George, a man whose life proves that survival can be transformed into strategy—and strategy into lasting impact.Abraham's journey begins in the Indian military, where at just 18 years old he was stationed along the Chinese border at 14,000 feet above sea level. While serving as an artillery officer, he narrowly survived a deadly dynamite explosion. That moment didn't just change his career path—it reshaped his entire philosophy on purpose, service, and long-term thinking.Rather than rushing into answers, Abraham chose patience. He came to the United States in the late 1960s, studied at New York University's Stern School of Business, and earned advanced degrees in international finance and developmental economics. After a brief but valuable experience at JP Morgan, he realized that a comfortable salary would never give him the leverage needed to address the deeper social issues he cared about.So he built his own company.At a time when computers were rare and startups had no safety nets, Abraham founded a financial risk-management software business. The first decade was brutally difficult—financially, emotionally, and professionally. He taught college courses at night, supported a growing family, and slowly refined a product the market wasn't quite ready for yet.The second decade brought traction. The final five years brought a breakthrough.His company grew from three people working out of a basement into a global market leader with offices across the United States and Europe, eventually employing more than 150 people. When Abraham reached the point he had planned for decades, he exited the business—not to retire, but to begin his true mission.That mission was education.Using his own capital, Abraham moved to a remote village in India and founded a residential boarding school for children living below the poverty line. His approach rejected short-term charity in favor of long-term commitment—supporting each child from age four through college and into their first career. It was an 18- to 19-year intervention designed to break generational poverty from the bottom up.Today, his schools educate hundreds of students at a time, with graduates now working at companies like Microsoft, Ernst & Young, and ExxonMobil, and others studying in top universities around the world. His work challenges conventional thinking about philanthropy, proving that structure, discipline, and patience matter just as much in service as they do in business.Abraham also openly shares his failures—overexpansion, the dangers of running organizations as a one-person show, and the financial devastation of the 2008 crisis. Those lessons reinforce a central theme of this episode: whether in business or philanthropy, systems matter more than ego.This conversation is a powerful reminder that success doesn't have to end at the exit—and that entrepreneurs willing to think long-term can build businesses that fund impact far beyond themselves.To chat about this one-on-one, grab a free consult at strategymeeting.com

We both quit our sports despite being talented. Here's what girls actually need to stay in the game → https://trainhergame.com/momGirls are quitting sports at twice the rate of boys by age 14. But it's not about talent or access.The real reason? Mental game. Fear of judgment, anxiety, pressure to perform, low confidence.In this episode, my co-founder Kristina and I are sharing our personal stories about quitting our sports. Stories we don't usually tell.Kristina was a basketball starter who quit her senior year because she physically couldn't shoot anymore. Not because she lost her skills, but because she couldn't handle the pressure of standing out and the fear of friends getting mad at her for being too good.I turned down college volleyball offers after my senior year because the emotional cost felt unbearable. Between my parents' divorce and perfectionism, I felt like I was failing everyone no matter what I did.We both came back to our sports later. But we shouldn't have had to quit in the first place to find peace.That's why we built The Elite Competitor and the Play, Stay, Lead mission.What You'll Learn:✅ Why girls quit sports at twice the rate of boys (and it's not what you think)✅ The real reason talented athletes walk away from their sport✅ How mental game challenges show up (pressure to be invisible, perfectionism, anxiety)✅ What keeps girls in sports longer and turns them into confident leaders✅ The mission behind everything we do at The Elite Competitor
In this episode of the REB Podcast, editor Liam Garman sits down with Lloyd Ernst, founder and CEO of Cloudstaff, for a deep dive into how principals and directors can build scalable, future-ready, and tech-enabled real estate businesses.

When shots rang out in Tumbler Ridge there was one reporter in town. He was used to covering local events like town council meetings, local hockey, or even, once, a mother duck leading her chicks through town. Then on February 10 came one of the worst shootings in Canadian history.For the first five hours after the attack local reporter Trent Ernst was the sole journalist in the town. Then the international media descended and for a few days everyone from CBC to the BBC to CNN wanted to talk to Ernst. A few days later the new cycle shifted and the world's media withdrew. Ernst stayed. He kept reporting, kept talking to his community. And today he talks to Canadaland about what happened before, during, and after Tumbler Ridge moved into the world's headlines.Host: Jesse BrownCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Featured Guest: Trent ErnstFact checking by Julian AbrahamAdditional music by Audio NetworkPhoto: Trent ErnstMore information:https://tumblerridgelines.com/https://www.patreon.com/tumblerridgelinesSponsors: Douglas: Douglas is giving our listeners a FREE Sleep Bundle with each mattress purchase.

Episode Summary: Robots Are Building Solar Farms Robots Are Building Solar Farms: How Cosmic Robotics Is Transforming Utility-Scale Construction In this episode of the Solar Maverick Podcast, host Benoy Thanjan sits down with James Emerick, Co-Founder and CEO of Cosmic Robotics, to explore how autonomous robotics are changing the way utility-scale solar is built. Cosmic Robotics is developing an autonomous vehicle with an industrial robotic arm that installs PV modules on to racking, reducing labor intensity while improving safety and predictability on job sites. James shares why module installation is one of the most labor-intensive and OSHA recordable injury-prone tasks in solar construction and how robotics can help crews work faster and safer. They also discuss the company's approach to deploying robots in the field, using real-world data to improve performance, and expanding into adjacent tasks like QA/QC and other construction applications over time. The conversation also touches on the broader drivers accelerating automation, including labor constraints, tighter project economics, and the surge in behind-the-meter power needs from data centers and AI infrastructure. Key Takeaways Robotics can reduce crew size while maintaining or improving daily module install throughput • Safety is a primary driver, not just cost, since module install has high injury exposure • Well-scoped tasks like module placement are a practical path to field-ready autonomy • The long-term opportunity is a broader robotics platform for solar and adjacent infrastructure Biographies Benoy Thanjan Benoy Thanjan is the Founder and CEO of Reneu Energy, solar developer and consulting firm, and a strategic advisor to multiple cleantech startups.

Eddie AlfanoTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Eddie Alfano. Eddis is an actor, writer, and producer originally from Long Island, but now living in Los Angeles. In this episode, we chat about his early life. Prior to acting, Eddie was an athlete, and then a number cruncher at Ernst & Young. That didn't last long, because he got super bored! So Eddie moved to Los Angeles to become a stripper. As part of the 'Latin Hunks' male stripping company, Eddie entertained the ladies by night, while working the front desk at Gold's Gym..... and then he got into acting! Eddie fell in love with acting, and then it was off to the races. He landed roles in a few things and then declared himself an actor! Then the strike happened and he had to re-evaluate everything. We definitely discuss his '5 Year Plan' and his thoughts on quitting. Eddie shares stories of his much-beloved mentor, as well as some fun stories involving Theatre East, and some of his short film projects. We talk about some of his friends in the business, and a film or two that he starred in. Finally, we touch on his role in 'On cinema', and an up-and-coming actor that Eddie thinks really has the goods. Make sure you check out Eddie's social media, and his You Tube channel, where a ton of his stuff can be seen.
Inside Wirtschaft - Der Podcast mit Manuel Koch | Börse und Wirtschaft im Blick
Die Turbulenzen bei Aktien, Bitcoin und Edelmetallen haben Anleger verunsichert. Aber ist die Lage wirklich so besonders? „Die Lage war noch nie so ernst, pflegte Altkanzler Adenauer zu sagen. Sie war offensichtlich immer ernst. Jedes Jahr ist herausfordernd. Es gibt seit 2008 keine einfachen Jahren. Da ist ja keine Ruhe dabei gewesen. Wir haben immer Aufreger, aber auch die mediale Aufbereitung ist gewaltig. Die Medien haben ein eigenes Interesse wie Klicks und Quoten, die mit den Anleger-Interessen oft genug kollidieren", so Robert Halver. Der Kapitalmarktexperte von der Baader Bank weiter: „Die Sicherheit ist ja gerade für uns Deutsche eine diffizile Sache. Wer keine Aktien hat, ist gegenüber dem Anleger bei Zinsen ein Spekulant."

In this special broadcast of the Ask Dr. Ernst Show, Dr. Aaron Ernst dives into a crucial topic that's often overlooked in the discussion of type two diabetes. He reveals a direct, physical cause of the condition that no one's talking about: toxin-induced insulin resistance. Doctor Ernst explains how toxins, such as ferretin, heavy metals, and glyphosate, can damage insulin receptors, leading to elevated blood sugar levels. He shares research and studies that show a significant correlation between these toxins and insulin resistance, and discusses how detoxification and removal of these toxins can be a game-changer for those with type two diabetes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
