In this episode, I talk about how your real communication isn't what you say—it's everything that happens before, around, and even without words. People make up their mind about you long before you speak. Your body, your silence, and your energy speak louder than anything you can say. I break down how that unspoken communication shapes how people see you and how to use it with intention. Show Notes [02:39]#1 You'll never get a second chance to make your first impression.

BONUS: Flawless Execution — Translating Fighter Pilot Precision to Business Results In this powerful conversation, former fighter pilot Christian "Boo" Boucousis reveals how military precision translates into agile business leadership. We explore the FLEX model (Plan-Brief-Execute-Debrief), the critical difference between control-based and awareness-based leadership, and why most organizations fail to truly embrace iterative thinking. From Cockpit to Boardroom: An Unexpected Journey "I learned over time that it doesn't matter what you do if you're always curious, and you're always intentional, and you're always asking questions." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   Christian's path from fighter pilot to leadership consultant wasn't planned—it was driven by necessity and curiosity. After 11 years as a fighter pilot (7 in Australia, 4 in the UK), an autoimmune condition ended his flying career at age 30. Rather than accepting a comfy job flying politicians around, he chose entrepreneurship. He moved to Afghanistan with a friend and built a reconstruction company that grew to a quarter billion dollars in four years. The secret? The debrief skills he learned as a fighter pilot. By constantly asking "What are you trying to achieve? How's it going? Why is there a gap?" he approached business with an agile mindset before he even knew what agile was. This curiosity-driven, question-focused approach became the foundation for everything that followed. The FLEX Model: Plan-Brief-Execute-Debrief "Agile and scrum were co-created by John Sutherland, who was a fighter pilot, and its origins sit in the OODA loop and iteration. Which is why it's a circle." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   The FLEX model isn't new—fighter pilots have used this Plan-Brief-Execute-Debrief cycle for 60 years. It's the ultimate simple agile model, designed to help teams accelerate toward goals using the same accelerated learning curve the Air Force uses to train fighter pilots. The key insight: everything in this model is iterative, not linear. Every mission has a start, middle, and end, and every stage involves constant adaptation. Afterburner (the company Christian now leads as CEO) has worked with nearly 3,800 companies and 2.8 million people over 30 years, teaching this model. What's fascinating is that the DNA of agile is baked into fighter pilot thinking—John Sutherland, co-creator of Scrum, wrote the foreword for Christian's book "The Afterburner Advantage" because they share the same roots in the OODA loop and iterative thinking. Why Iterative Thinking Doesn't Come Naturally "Iterative thinking is not a natural human model. Most of the time we learn from mistakes. We don't learn as a habit." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   Here's the hard truth: agile as a way of working is very different from the way human beings naturally think. Business leadership models still hark back to Frederick Winslow Taylor's 1911 book on scientific management—industrial era leadership designed for building buildings, not creating software. Time is always linear (foundation, then structure, then finishing), and this shapes how we think about planning. Humans also tend to organize like villages with chiefs, warriors, and gatherers—hierarchical and political. Fighter pilots created a parallel system where politics exist outside missions, but during execution, personality clashes can't interfere. The challenge for business isn't the method—it's getting human minds to embrace iteration as a habit, not just a process they follow when forced. Planning: Building Collective Consciousness, Not Task Lists "Planning isn't all about sequencing actions—that's not planning. That's the byproduct of planning, which is collectively agreeing what good looks like at the end." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   Most people plan in their head or in front of a spreadsheet by themselves. That's not planning—that's collecting thoughts. Real planning means bringing everyone on the team together to build collective consciousness about what's possible. The plan is always "the best idea based on what we know now." Once airborne, everything changes because the enemy doesn't cooperate with your plan. Planning is about the destination, not the work to get there. Think about airline pilots: they don't tell you about traffic delays on their commute or maintenance issues. They say "Welcome aboard, our destination is Amsterdam, there's weather on the way, we'll land 5 minutes early." That's a brief—just the effect on you based on all their work. Most business meetings waste 55 minutes on backstory and 5 minutes deciding to have another meeting. Fighter pilots focus entirely on: What are we trying to achieve? What might get in the way? Let's go. Briefing: The 25-Minute Focus Window "You need 25 minutes of focus before your brain really focuses on the task. You program your brain for the mission at hand." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   The brief is the moment between planning and execution when the plan is as accurate as it'll ever get. It's called "brief" for a reason—it's really short. The team checks that everyone understands the plan in today's context, accounting for last-minute changes (broken equipment, weather, personnel changes). Then comes the critical part: creating the mission bubble. From the brief until mission end, there are no distractions, no notifications. If someone tries to interrupt a fighter pilot walking to the jet, the response is clear: "I'm in my mission bubble. No distractions." This isn't optional—research shows it takes 25 minutes of uninterrupted focus before your brain truly locks onto a task. Yet most business leaders expect constant availability, with notifications pinging every few minutes. If you need everyone to have notifications on to run your business, you're doing a really bad job at planning. Execution: Awareness-Based Leadership vs. Control-Based Leadership "The reason we have so many meetings is because the leader is trying to control the situation and own all the awareness. It's not humanly possible to do that." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   During execution, fighter pilots fly the plan until it doesn't work anymore—then they adapt. A mission commander might lead 70 airplanes, but can't possibly track all 69 others. Instead, they create "gates"—checkpoints where everyone confirms they're in the right place within 10 seconds. They plan for chaos, creating awareness points where the team is generally on track or not. The key shift: from control-based leadership (the leader tries to control everything) to awareness-based leadership (the leader facilitates and listens for divergences). This includes "subordinated leadership"—any of the four pilots in a formation can take the lead if they have better awareness. If a wingman calls out a threat the leader doesn't see, the immediate response is "Press! You take the lead." This works because they planned for it and have criteria. Business teams profess to want this kind of agile collaboration, but struggle because they haven't invested in the planning and shared understanding that makes fluid leadership transitions possible. Abort Criteria: Knowing When to Stop "We have this concept called abort criteria. If certain criteria are hit, we abort the mission. I think that's a massive opportunity for business." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   There are degrees of things going wrong: a little bit, a medium amount, and everything going wrong. When everything's going wrong, fighter pilots stop and turn around—they don't keep pressing a bad situation. This "abort criteria" concept is massively underutilized in business. Too often, teams press bad situations, transparency disappears, people stop talking, and everyone goes into survival mode (protect myself, blame others). This never happens with fighter pilots. If something goes wrong, they take accountability and make the best decision. The most potent team size is four people: a leader, deputy leader, and two wingmen. This small team size with clear roles and shared abort criteria creates psychological safety to call out problems and adapt quickly. The Retrospective Mindset: Not Just a Ritual "A retrospective isn't a ritual. It's actually a way of thinking. It's a cognitive model. If you approached everything as a retrospective—what are we trying to achieve? How's it going? Why is it not going where we want? What's the one action to get back on track?" — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   The debrief—the retrospective—is the most important part of fighter pilot culture translated into agile. It's not just a meeting you have at the end of a sprint. It's a mindset you apply to everything: projects, relationships, personal development. Christian introduces "Flawless Leadership" built on three M's: Method (agile practices), Mindset (growth mindset developed through acting iteratively), and Moments (understanding when to show up as a people leader vs. an impact leader). The biggest mistake in technology: teams do retrospectives internally but don't include the business. They get a brief from the business, build for two months, come back, and the business says "What is this? This isn't what I expected." If they'd had the business in every scrum, every iteration, trust would build naturally. Everyone involved in the mission must be part of the planning, briefing, executing, and debriefing. Leading in the Moment: Three Layers of Leadership "Your job as a scrum master, as a leader—it doesn't matter if you're leading a division of people—is to be aware. And you're only going to be aware by listening." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   Christian breaks leadership into three layers: People Leadership (political, emotional, dealing with personalities and overwhelm), Impact Leadership (the agile layer, results-driven, scientific), and Leading Now (the reactive, amygdala-driven panic response when things go wrong). The mistake: mixing these layers. Don't try to be a people leader during execution—that's not the time. But if you're really good at impact leadership (planning, breaking epics into stories, getting work done), you become high trust and high credibility. People leadership becomes easier because success eliminates excuses. During execution, watch for individual traits and blind spots. Use one-on-ones with a retrospective mindset: "What does good look like for you? How do we get to where you're not frustrated?" When leaders aren't present—checking phones and watches during meetings—they lose people. Your job as a leader is to turn your ears on, facilitate (not direct), and listen for divergences others don't see. The Technology-Business Disconnect "Every time you're having a scrum, every time you're coming together to talk about the product, just have the business there with you. It's easy." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   One of the biggest packages of work Afterburner does: technology teams ask them to help build trust with the business. The solution is shockingly simple—include the business in every scrum, every planning session, every retrospective. Agile is a tech-driven approach, creating a disconnect. Technology brings overwhelming information about how hard they're working and problems they've solved, but business doesn't care about the past. They care about the future: what are you delivering and when? During the Gulf War, the military scaled this fighter pilot model to large-scale planning. Fighter pilots work with marines, special forces, navy, CIA agents—everyone is part of the plan. If one person is missing from planning, execution falls apart. If someone on the ground doesn't know how an F-18 works, the jet is just expensive decoration. Planning is about learning what everyone else does and how to support them best—not announcing what you'll do and how you'll do it. High-Definition Destinations: Beyond Goals "Planning is all about the destination, not the work to get there. Think about when you hop on an airplane—the pilot doesn't tell you the whole backstory. They say 'Welcome aboard, our destination is Amsterdam, there's weather on the way, we'll land 5 minutes early.' All you want is the effect on you." — Christian "Boo" Boucousis   Christian uses the term "High-Definition Destinations" rather than goals. The difference is clarity and vividness. When you board a plane, you don't get the pilot's commute story or maintenance details—you get the destination, obstacles, and estimated arrival. That's communication focused on effect, not process. Most business communication does the opposite: overwhelming context, backstory, and detail, with the destination buried somewhere in the middle. The brief should always be: Here's where we're going. Here's what might get in the way. Let's go. This communication style—focused on outcomes and effects rather than processes and problems—transforms how teams align and execute. It eliminates the noise and centers everyone on what actually matters: the destination.   About Christian "Boo" Boucousis   Christian "Boo" Boucousis is a former fighter pilot who now helps leaders navigate today's fast-moving world.

Please note that the live was done on a cell phone, due to Randy being unable to access a laptop/tablet.Ronnie Lee Gardner was a convicted murderer from Utah whose violent criminal history and dramatic courtroom escape attempt made him one of the state's most infamous prisoners. Born in 1961, Gardner endured a troubled childhood marked by abuse, neglect, and frequent run-ins with the law. By his early twenties, he was already incarcerated for violent crimes. In 1985, while being transported to court for a hearing on a murder charge, Gardner attempted to escape and fatally shot attorney Michael Burdell inside the courthouse. The incident led to his conviction for capital murder and a death sentence.Gardner spent 25 years on Utah's death row, during which he became a controversial figure in debates over the death penalty. Known for his defiant attitude early in his incarceration, he later expressed remorse for his actions and pursued education and spiritual growth while imprisoned. His 2010 execution by firing squad — the first in Utah in 14 years — drew widespread attention and reignited discussions about humane methods of execution and the purpose of capital punishment in modern America.Randy Gardner, Ronnie's brother, became an outspoken opponent of the death penalty after witnessing his brother's execution. Deeply affected by the loss and the trauma of the event, Randy turned his grief into advocacy, speaking publicly about the emotional toll capital punishment inflicts on families of both victims and offenders. He has since worked with human rights and anti-death-penalty organizations, sharing his story to highlight the human cost of executions and the cycle of violence they perpetuate. His activism has made him a well-known voice in the movement to abolish the death penalty in the United States.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

Injection Molding PDF Email me: dr.melissaseibert@gmail.com Join Elevated GP: www.theelevatedgp.com Follow @dental_digest_podcast Instagram Follow @dr.melissa_seibert on Instagram In this second installment of Dental Digest's conversation with Dr. Jonathan Esquivel, host Dr. Melissa Seibert and her guest push deeper into the artistry, biology, and discipline required to restore anterior implants that are as functional as they are beautiful. While Part 1 introduced Esquivel's framework of space, volume, and time, this episode focuses on the next frontier—provisionalization, emergence-profile design, and the E-B-C concept that defines the biologic foundations of aesthetic implant therapy. Dr. Esquivel begins by demystifying the provisionalization workflow for anterior implants—whether immediate or delayed. He walks listeners step by step through decision-making factors such as ridge healing, tissue phenotype, and the importance of minimizing the number of disconnections to protect the fragile mucosal seal. He stresses that efficiency in implant dentistry isn't about finishing fast—it's about achieving predictability in the fewest biologically respectful appointments. The discussion then turns to the team-based dynamics between the restorative dentist and the surgeon. Dr. Esquivel details how he coordinates cases digitally, sending STL files and mock-ups for joint planning before the first incision. His six-phase system—Acquisition, Blueprint, Confirmation, Design, Execution, and Follow-up—illustrates how restorative-driven implant dentistry must begin with facial and prosthetic design, not with a drill guide. From there, the episode dives into the chairside artistry of immediate provisionalization. Using a pre-milled shell and temporary cylinder, Dr. Esquivel describes how to "pick up" a provisional and sculpt the subgingival contours in real time. But as he emphasizes, the true challenge lies not in fabrication—but in understanding how material additions and reductions influence soft-tissue behavior. This insight leads to one of the most clinically valuable segments of the episode: Dr. Esquivel's E-B-C concept, an evolution of the classic critical- and subcritical-contour framework. The E-Zone (Esthetic Zone), roughly the first millimeter below the gingival zenith, governs margin stability and the visible pink–white transition. The B-Zone (Biologic or Boundary Zone) supports the mucosal seal and should remain concave to create space for healthy soft tissue. The C-Zone (Crestal Zone), the most apical 1–2 mm, must be slim and biologically quiet to preserve the crestal bone. Dr. Esquivel explains how even subtle over-contouring in these zones can trigger recession or bone loss, while proper shaping promotes long-term harmony between implant and tissue. Using tactile language, he describes his preference for pear-shaped acrylic burs to sculpt the concavity of the B-zone, and how digital workflows now allow clinicians to model these micro-contours virtually before any material is placed. The conversation culminates in a reflection on philosophy as much as technique. Dr. Esquivel urges clinicians to focus on mastering the basics—aesthetic symmetry, biologic respect, and patience—rather than chasing novelty. "An implant is not a tooth," he reminds us. "Our goal is to protect the bone, guide the tissue, and understand what we can't see." Listeners will leave this episode with a detailed understanding of: How to design, print, or fabricate custom provisionals that shape the soft tissue biologically The dimensional logic behind the E-B-C zones and how each governs tissue stability Why limiting abutment disconnections preserves the mucosal seal How digital and analog workflows can be integrated seamlessly And the mindset shift required to see implants not as prosthetic devices, but as biologic restorations Part 2 is both a masterclass in subgingival design and a meditation on restraint. Dr. Esquivel reminds us that excellence in implant aesthetics doesn't come from doing more—it comes from doing less, but with absolute intention.

Bill Squires, now serving as Chief Venues and Operations Manager for the New York, New Jersey Host Committee for the FIFA 2026 World Cup, has built a remarkable career shaped by discipline, service, and an enduring passion for leadership.

Send us a textEpisode # 150: Leadership in finance isn't a title—it's a practice. We dive into what turns any role in accounting, FP&A, or audit into a force for strategic impact, starting with the four pillars that anchor meaningful change: influence, grow your people, deliver results, and see the future. Along the way, we unpack how to turn data into decisions, build trust with senior leaders, and convert operational friction—like a chaotic month end—into a reliable, learning-driven process.We start by reframing influence as earned alignment. You'll hear how to show up with validated numbers, a sharp point of view, and a concise ask that respects executive time. Then we get practical about developing talent: mentoring for strategic thinking, cross-training on the business model, and running blameless reviews that raise the team's ceiling. Execution takes center stage with tactics to speed the close, improve forecast accuracy, and translate variances into action. Finally, we step into forward-looking leadership—tracking external signals that matter, setting crisp scenarios, and aligning decisions to both profitability and purpose.If you're ready to elevate your impact, this conversation will help you become the partner your organization needs: people-centered, data-driven, and ethically grounded. Please connect with me on:1.

From Startups to a $941 Million Exits: The Execution Formula for Entrepreneurs   Most entrepreneurs don't fail because they lack ideas—they fail because they stop executing. Planning feels safe. Execution exposes reality. Billion-Dollar Coach Marc L. Daniels learned that truth the hard way—from paper routes to startups to a $941 million exit. In this episode of Richer Soul, Marc reveals why 85 percent of business plans fail, how to build the discipline to follow through, and the system that keeps momentum alive even when markets shift.   Key takeaways and reflection:  Most Plans Fail in Execution, Not Design. A perfect plan on paper means nothing if you don't act on it. Marc shared that only 7 out of 100 companies both plan and execute effectively. Reflection: How often do you review your goals after you set them? The Rhythm of Success: Quarterly Planning + Weekly Check-Ins. Annual plans fade fast. Marc recommends quarterly focus with a short list of priorities—and a weekly leadership check-in to track progress. This rhythm keeps accountability alive. Reflection: Do you have a weekly rhythm that forces progress on what matters most Trends Are Waves—Learn to Paddle Early. Marc built multi-million-dollar businesses by spotting and riding trends early. But he warns: AI isn't a trend, it's table stakes. The key is to distinguish short-term fads from shifts that redefine industries. Reflection: Are you riding the right wave—or chasing shiny distractions? Build Around Core Values, Not Just Skill Sets. Talent without alignment creates chaos. Marc hires for values first, knowing skill can be taught but character can't. Reflection: Does your team share your values—or are you tolerating misalignment because they perform well? Manage Your Success Before It Manages You. As Marc says, "Learn to manage success." Growth can destroy a business if systems and habits don't mature with it. Discipline, boundaries, and reflection are what turn momentum into mastery. Reflection: How are you managing your success so it doesn't manage you? Planning for the Future Means Expecting Change. Marc's company once lost its footing when the market shifted overnight. His takeaway: tear up the plan when the world changes. Flexibility beats rigidity every time. Reflection: When was the last time you updated your plan to match new realities?   Money Learnings: Marc's early lessons with money came from necessity—earning his own cash as a kid and even buying his dad new tires when the family couldn't afford them. That foundation shaped his lifelong belief: cash flow is freedom. In business, he learned the hard way that relying on investors or trends without strong margins is a recipe for collapse. Profitability and discipline—not outside money—create true security. His mantra: get cash-positive fast, manage success wisely, and never stop adjusting your plan.   Key Takeaway: Execution is not about doing more—it's about doing what matters most, consistently. Set quarterly goals, hold weekly check-ins, ride the right trends, and build a team that shares your values. That's how billion-dollar growth is created—one disciplined week at a time.   Bio: Marc L. Daniels, known as the "Billion Dollar Coach," is a globally recognized business strategist who helps entrepreneurs turn vision into growth. With decades of experience guiding companies across 16+ countries, Marc has driven ventures from startup to multimillion-dollar exits, including co-founding Diligent, acquired for $941 million. Through hands-on coaching, workshops, and his Strategic Planning Academy, he equips business leaders to spot emerging trends, execute with precision, and achieve lasting success.   Links: Website: https://marcldaniels.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marc-l-daniels-231456a3/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Marc-L-Daniels/61566554887388/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marcldaniels/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MarcLDaniels   Take ten minutes today to review your plan.

Too many men try to prove they're dominant, strong, or superior just to fit an image or attract attention. But when you focus on proving something, you lose sight of what actually makes you effective. Real strength isn't about a label—it's about substance, presence, and results. In this episode, I talk about why chasing the “alpha male” label misses the real point.  Show Notes [02:28]#1 Labels are not power.  [07:40]#2 Noise is not a strength.

Send us a textTransitioning EMRs can either be the upgrade that unlocks your practice's next level—or the operational nightmare that drains cash, kills productivity, and torpedoes patient experience. In this hard-hitting episode of Private Practice Survival Guide, Brandon Siegel demolishes the “4–6 week” implementation myth and lays out a battle-tested roadmap: a realistic 3–6 month (often 9–12 month end-to-end) plan, a 90-day parallel run, airtight data migration (HL7/FHIR/CCD/CCDA), and surgical timing for EDI/ERA so revenue doesn't evaporate mid-switch. You'll learn how to map workflows, choose features that matter (not “massaging seats”), set KPIs, avoid AI-driven compliance traps, stage go-lives during low-volume windows, and build a true stakeholder taskforce (project lead, super users, vendor coordination) with downtime contingencies and HIPAA-grade security.
