Today I'm talking about how service businesses mess things up. I had a real situation with a guy who had a chance to do a job for me but he dropped the ball over and over again. I was ready to pay him, but he kept being slow, unclear, and unprofessional. If you run a service business, this is a warning. I'm breaking down exactly what he did wrong so you don't make the same mistakes and lose money like he did. Show Notes:  [07:31]#1 An artist is just your technical skill and if the business is not in order, you don't get as many opportunities to do the technical thing.  [11:16]#2 Being an entrepreneur is much more about marketing, management, operations, communications and systems.  [20:16]#3 Get with someone who understands the marketing, the systems, the processes, the strategies, the entrepreneurship.  [23:19]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3277: The 3 Tools Of Professional Service Entrepreneurship 1855: How To Give Amazing Customer Service 2013: The SAME Things, The SAME Way, EVERY Time Next Steps:

Today's topic is “That's Why We Play the Games.” This one's all about mindset. Just because things aren't looking great right now doesn't mean it's over. You might feel far from your goals, but that doesn't mean you'll never reach them. I got this phrase from an old ESPN analyst reminding us that no matter how things look on paper, you still gotta play it out. Show Notes:  [02:28]#1 You need to keep playing the games even when you're losing or in a winning situation. [08:41]#2 Any situation in which you are not given a chance, you are barely considered and, or you are not even looked at as a serious contender to succeed is a great opportunity for you.  [12:58]#3 You are not a champion in life, any aspect of life, until you're in a situation that looks like a sure defeat.  [19:22]Recap Next Steps:

Prepare for game-changing AI insights! Join Noelle Russell, CEO of the AI Leadership Institute and author of Scaling Responsible AI: From Enthusiasm to Execution. Noelle, an AI pioneer, shares her journey from the early Alexa team with Jeff Bezos, where her unique perspective shaped successful mindfulness apps. We'll explore her "I Love AI" community, which has taught over 3.4 million people. Unpack responsible, profitable AI, from the "baby tiger" analogy for AI development and organizational execution, to critical discussions around data bias and the cognitive cost of AI over-reliance.Key Moments: Journey into AI: From Jeff Bezos to Alexa (03:13): Noelle describes how she "stumbled into AI" after receiving an email from Jeff Bezos inviting her to join a new team at Amazon, later revealed to be the early Alexa team. She highlights that while she lacked inherent AI skills, her "purpose and passion" fueled her journey."I Love AI" Community & Learning (11:02): After leaving Amazon and experiencing a personal transition, Noelle created the "I Love AI" community. This free, neurodiverse space offers a safe environment for people, especially those laid off or transitioning careers, to learn AI without feeling alone, fundamentally changing their life trajectories.The "Baby Tiger" Analogy (17:21): Noelle introduces her "baby tiger" analogy for early AI model development. She explains that in the "peak of enthusiasm" (baby tiger mode), people get excited about novel AI models, but often fail to ask critical questions about scale, data needs, long-term care, or what happens if the model isn't wanted anymore.Model Selection & Explainability (32:01): Noelle stresses the importance of a clear rubric for model selection and evaluation, especially given rapid changes. She points to Stanford's HELM project (Holistic Evaluation of Language Models) as an open-source leaderboard that evaluates models on "toxicity" beyond just accuracy.Avoiding Data Bias (40:18): Noelle warns against prioritizing model selection before understanding the problem and analyzing the data landscape, as this often leads to biased outcomes and the "hammer-and-nail" problem.Cognitive Cost of AI Over-Reliance (44:43): Referencing recent industry research, Noelle warns about the potential "atrophy" of human creativity due to over-reliance on AI. Key Quotes:"Show don't tell... It's more about understanding what your review board does and how they're thinking and what their backgrounds are... And then being very thoughtful about your approach."  - Noelle Russell"When we use AI as an aid rather than as writing the whole thing or writing the title, when we use it as an aid, like, can you make this title better for me? Then our brain actually is growing. The creative synapses are firing away." Noelle Russell"Most organizations, most leaders... they're picking their model before they've even figured out what the problem will be... it's kind of like, I have a really cool hammer, everything's a nail, right?"  - Noelle RussellMentions:"I Love AI" CommunityScaling Responsible AI: From Enthusiasm to Execution - Noelle Russell"Your Brain on ChatGPT" - MIT Media LabPower to Truth: AI Narratives, Public Trust, and the New Tech Empire - StanfordMeta-learning, Social Cognition and Consciousness in Brains and MachinesHELM - A Reproductive and Transparent Framework for Evaluating Foundation ModelsGuest Bio: Noelle Russell is a multi-award-winning speaker, author, and AI Executive who specializes in transforming businesses through strategic AI adoption.

Today I'm talking about whether a woman should be intimidating on purpose. Not just how people feel around her, but when a woman intentionally tries to come off that way. There's a big difference between someone being intimidating and someone trying to intimidate. I break down what the word really means and ask why would a woman want to cause fear or timidity in others, especially in men? This episode is about intention, not perception. Show Notes:  [03:01]#1 You should not be intimidating as a woman? The short answer to this question is, Hell no! [06:38]#2 While not intimidating, what a woman should aim to be is respected. [12:25]#3 Being feminine is not about being loud. [15:36]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3311: How To Be A "High Value Man" [Part 1 of 2] 3312: How To Be A "High Value Man" [Part 2 of 2] Next Steps:

In this episode, I'm breaking down the difference between a sexy woman and a sexual woman because no, they are not the same thing. A lot of women today are jumping into the marketplace thinking that showing more skin equals value, and I'm here to explain why that's not always the move. I also touch on how sex is being pushed in everyone's face these days, even when we're not looking for it. And fellas, I'm speaking from our perspective on what we actually see and think when it comes to how women present themselves. Show Notes:  [01:47]#1 Sexy is about presentation and what's on the surface.  [07:45]#2 Sexy energy is seeking approval as a form of validation.  [12:13]#3 Sexy is public and open to be seen by pretty much anyone.  [14:48]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3203: Why Instagram "Ass Models" Exist Next Steps:

In this episode, I'm talking to the ladies about how to move gracefully as a woman. This ain't a metaphor we're talking real, physical movement and presence, just like we did for the men in the masculine movement episode. A man's movement sends a message, and so does a woman's. So today, we're getting into how women can embody that same kind of grace and power in their own way. Let's talk about how you carry yourself and what it says without you even speaking.

Today's topic is for the ladies, femininity is a skill. Just like I've held men accountable in past episodes, now I'm giving y'all the female version from a man's perspective. If you're a woman who wants to be led by a strong man, I'm telling you what that man is actually looking for. This ain't about bashing women, it's about giving real games. And fellas, don't skip this—because you need to know what to look for, too. Show Notes:  [03:29]#1 Femininity is not a natural trait or a talent.  [09:25]#2 Femininity is powerfully powerful.  [14:32]#3 Femininity is something that is claimed, that is not something that is performed.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the truth about dominance. It connects to what we talked about yesterday having power and influence over others and why not everybody actually wants that. I talk about how dominance works in sports versus how it works in business, and why trying to crush your opponent in business could backfire. Sometimes you need the people you're competing with to still function after the game is over. Let's get into how to be smart, not just hard. Show Notes:  [02:13]#1 Dominance is about control, not necessarily aggression. [10:24]#2 Dominance must be claimed or taken because it is never given.

In this episode, I'm talking about why most people can't be trusted with power, not just power over others, but even power over their own lives. We all say we want control and influence, but the truth is, a lot of folks aren't ready for it. Being powerful requires responsibility, discipline, and the ability to manage yourself, and most people just don't have that. Today I'm breaking down why that is, and what it really takes to earn and handle power the right way. Show Notes:  [01:52]#1 Power is a magnifier.  [09:29]#2 One trade off of power is that for the price of having this influence, you are also responsible for the outcomes of those events even.  [20:03]#3 Power is not free.  [23:25]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2174: There Are No Perfect Scenarios – Only Trade-Offs Next Steps:

Episode Overview In this episode of the John Kitchens Coach Podcast, John, Al Stasek, and Jay Kinder sit down to talk real estate leadership, scaling beyond sales, and what true CEOs are doing differently in 2025. While the spotlight is on the upcoming Agent to CEO + Rock the Spectrum event, the conversation dives deep into what it actually takes to build a scalable, profitable, and freedom-driven real estate business. They unpack why most agents stay stuck in production, the importance of operating systems like Scaling Up and EOS, and how elite agents like Blake Sloan, Tina Caul, and Dustin Black are running world-class organizations—even in tough markets. Whether you're an agent stuck in survival mode or a team leader ready to scale up and step out, this episode shows you exactly what's working now—and how to stop playing small. Key Topics Covered From Agent to CEO (7-Figure +) Why scaling requires more than hustle—it takes systems and strategic thinking The power of events like Agent to CEO to create awareness, action, and accountability The importance of getting in the right rooms and surrounding yourself with people operating at a higher level Why Most Agents Stay Stuck The cost of staying in production too long How awareness and environment can break the ceiling Why the right room challenges you to think, act, and lead differently Operating Systems & Frameworks for Real Estate Teams How Scaling Up, EOS, and The 4 Disciplines of Execution provide a blueprint for growth The value of knowing your numbers: top line, gross margin, and net profit The “dumbest in the room” concept—and why that's where you want to be Lessons from High-Level (7-Figure) Operators How Blake Sloan runs a 43% profit-margin team in a 120-day DOM market What makes Dustin Black's model scalable and service-driven Why Tina Caul and Michelle Wilson are examples of women CEO leaders in real estate Thinking Bigger: The Science of Scaling Why most agents set goals that are too small How setting “unachievable goals” forces a higher standard of thinking The role of clarity, focus, and noise elimination in reaching big visions The Power of Events & Community What makes Agent to CEO and Rock the Spectrum unique Why this isn't a recruiting event—it's a business transformation experience How attending impacts both your business and a greater cause (RIM Farms) Resources & Mentions HoneyBadgerNation.com – Get your Agent to CEO tickets Scaling Up by Verne Harnish – Business operating system framework The Science of Scaling by Benjamin Hardy – How to think beyond your goals StoryBrand by Donald Miller – Framework for client clarity Simple Numbers by Greg Crabtree – How to track and manage business financials Rock the Spectrum 2024 – Live music, networking, and fundraising RIM Farms – Charity supported by Rock the Spectrum Final Takeaway Success in 2025 doesn't come from working more—it comes from thinking bigger.  If you're stuck in production, unclear on your numbers, or unsure how to scale, the Agent to CEO experience is your next move. Get in the right room. Raise your floor. Set unachievable goals. And build the business—and life—you deserve.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the hidden flex of being predictable. Back in my hoop days, I spent way more time practicing than playing, and while my drills were full of fancy moves, my game play was simple and repeatable and that's what worked. Some people said I was “predictable,” like that was a bad thing, but they were missing the point. Predictability, when it's backed by skill and consistency, is a strength, not a weakness. Today, I'm telling you why doing the same thing well—over and over—can actually make you unstoppable. Show Notes:  [02:22]#1 Predictability and consistency have a calming effect on both the users and the recipients. [08:23]#2 The more predictability you have in your life, the easier it is to think long term and plan for  the bigger picture. [15:07]#3 Predictability frees up your most powerful weapon.  [29:55]Recap Next Steps:

What does it take to lead with authenticity, build a thriving business, and grow stronger through adversity, both professionally and personally?  In this episode of Leadership Blueprints, BJ Kramer sits down with powerhouse duo Jim Carter of CBRE/Turner Townsend and Barbara Balongue, founder of Balongue Design, to explore the art of leadership through the lens of real-life experience, grit, and long-term vision. From Barbara's leap into entrepreneurship during a recession to Jim's three-decade blueprint for career growth focused on technical mastery, networking, and strategic leadership, this conversation offers a masterclass in leading with purpose.   Along the way, they share insights on the importance of vulnerability, the power of intergenerational collaboration, and why running toward problems, not away from them, is the mark of a true leader. For a fresh perspective on resilience, relationship-building, and what it means to lead a life (and business) with integrity and intention, tune in today!  Key Points From This Episode: A three-phase career strategy: competence, network, strategy. Overcoming adversity to build true leadership strength. Reasons to run toward the fire, not away from it. The importance of listening and learning across generations. Embracing risk, leading with vision, and other traits of successful leaders. The likability factor: why charisma is a secret weapon in leadership. Quotes: “Looking back, all of the economic downturns that I've lived through since the start, all the difficult clients, all the challenges, all the project setbacks, those are the things that really informed me and taught me how to be a leader.” — Barbara Balongue   “If you see a big fire, run into it. Don't run away from it. I use that language almost on a weekly basis with my team. If you see a problem, which we equate to a big fire, run right into it and put it out.” — Barbara Balongue  “Being vulnerable, and humble, and showing empathy is core to having a relationship, both in business and in [your personal life].” — Jim Carter  “I don't see a separation between personal and professional. You have to be an authentic person. People are attracted to what they see, not what they hear.” — Barbara Balongue  Links Mentioned in Today's Episode: Jim Carter on LinkedIn Turner & Townsend CBRE Barbara Balongue on LinkedIn Balongue Design The Likability Factor: How to Boost Your L-Factor and Achieve Your Life's Dreams Leadership Blueprints Podcast MCFA MCFA Careers BJ Kraemer on LinkedIn 

Have you ever considered that the key to leadership isn't just vision, but also preparation? Kevin sits down with Coach Matthew Mitchell to explore the role of preparation in leadership and in building winning teams. Matthew shares his five levels of preparation: casual, cursory, compliant, committed, and constant. He believes leaders need to reach levels 4 and 5, where thorough systems, discipline, and introspection take precedence. Using Coach John Wooden's approach, he explains that most preparation should focus on your systems, only delving deeply into the competitor's game when necessary, such as during critical “special situations.” Listen For 00:00 Introduction 00:36 Welcome to the podcast 01:06 About Kevin's book “Flexible Leadership” 01:33 Guest introduction: Coach Matthew Mitchell 02:27 Overview of Coach Mitchell's coaching career 03:44 How he got into coaching and writing 06:16 Why return to coaching now? 07:35 Focus of the book: preparation 08:32 Why preparation matters 10:23 Casino analogy: "the house always wins" 13:00 The five levels of preparation 17:01 Where organizations typically fall on the preparation spectrum 18:36 Peyton Manning's quote on preparation and work ethic 20:19 Attitude and effort: what we can control 22:17 Coaching insights that apply to business 24:22 The importance of identifying your “bread and butter” 25:03 Constant preparation and the power of systems 26:22 Preparing for strategy vs. reacting to the competition 30:27 Special situations in games and business 31:06 The danger of perfectionism vs. pursuit of excellence 32:11 What Coach Mitchell does for fun 33:03 What he's currently reading 34:39 Where to learn more about Coach Mitchell 35:24 Final thoughts and action steps for listeners 36:34 Closing remarks and next episode teaser Matthew's Story: Matthew Mitchell is the author of Ready to Win: How Great Leaders Succeed Through Preparation.

Today I'm flipping the script and telling you why social media will never be real life. Yeah, yesterday I broke down how it has become real life for a lot of people but today I'm giving you the other side. I like to argue both angles so you can think for yourself and see where you stand. If you live on your phone more than you talk to real people, this one's especially for you. Let's get into it. Show Notes:  [01:45]#1 Real life in the flesh, human engagement still matters and you still need the skills that come with it. [06:45]#2 Social media provides a robust platform for people to live out their unlived fantasies through a smartphone and that's pretty much what social media allows people to do.  [16:00]#3 Artificial intelligence and automation are only getting better, which means there are fewer people developing real intelligence, real skills, and real know-how. So the opportunity is in having those skills.  [20:01]Recap Episode Mentioned: 1025: The Opportunity Is In The Opposites 3137: The Future-Proof Skills You Need [Part 1 of 4] Next Steps:

On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we sit down with Chris Happ, co-founder and CEO of Virtuous AI, to discuss the urgent need for businesses to embrace AI. We explore how companies have a narrow two-year window to integrate AI deeply or risk being left behind. Chris shares real-world insights on closing the “execution gap” with AI, treating AI as a true business partner, and why curiosity is now the top skill for leaders. This episode is essential listening for marketing professionals and executives navigating the AI-driven future. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Chris Happ on the AI Tipping Point for Business If you're a business leader, entrepreneur, or marketer, you're standing at a crossroads. The AI revolution isn't coming—it's already here. Christopher sat down with Chris Happ, CEO of Virtuous AI, to tackle a critical question: Do businesses have just two years to embrace AI, or risk being overtaken by it? This is not just another tech hype cycle. As Chris Happ puts it, companies will either become AI-first or become fossils. The pace of change is relentless, and the window to act is closing fast. The Urgency: Why the Next Two Years Matter Chris Happ and Christopher Lochhead draw a powerful parallel between today's AI moment and the dawn of the commercial internet in the late 1990s. Back then, the fear was being “Amazoned”—disrupted by a digital-first competitor. Today, the risk is being left behind by AI-native businesses. Chris estimates that businesses have about a two-year window—maybe less—to make AI a core part of their operations before the competitive gap becomes insurmountable. The pace of AI development is exponential. What seemed impossible last year is table stakes today. And this isn't just a tech problem; it's a business survival issue. Every industry, from butchers to billion-dollar enterprises, is at risk. The advice is clear: start now. Don't wait for AI to “mature.” The companies that experiment, learn, and iterate today will dominate tomorrow. Look at how leading companies are using AI—not just in Silicon Valley, but in your own industry. The Execution Gap: The Real Barrier to Growth Most successful companies already have solid strategies. The real challenge is execution. Chris Happ calls this the “execution gap”—the chasm between what you plan and what you actually deliver. As companies grow, executing on strategy becomes exponentially harder. Critical information is often locked away in different departments or systems, and too much time is spent on repetitive, low-value tasks. AI can close this gap by analyzing data and generating insights in seconds, not weeks. AI-driven processes reduce human error and ensure best practices are followed every time, enabling you to do more with less and scale your operations without scaling your headcount. Chris Happ shared a story where Virtuous AI's “Violet” answered a complex business question in just 26 seconds—a task that would have taken a traditional data team two weeks. The lesson: map out where your strategy breaks down in execution, identify the bottlenecks, and pilot AI solutions in high-impact areas like sales forecasting, customer segmentation, or process automation.

In this episode, I'm breaking down how social media has literally become real life for a lot of people. I've touched on this in past episodes, like 1690 and 490, but today I'm going deeper on how and why this shift happened. Even if it ain't true for you, you still need to understand it because it'll help you make sense of how people think, talk, and act these days. Let's get into it. Show Notes:  [01:42]#1 Smartphones have replaced real life human engagement at a mass level.

But today, I'm laying out the actual steps to shut feminism down completely. I explain where it came from, why it's a bad idea, and how we reverse engineer it to end it. If you really want to understand the root of it and how to fix it, this episode is the blueprint. Show Notes:  [03:09]#1 Men must be willing to tell women to shut the fuck up with no equivocation. [13:17]#2 Men must carry himself and perform in a way that motivates women to aim for his approval.  [23:48]#3 Bring general masculinity back to society.

Today I'm talking about how men are being artificially controlled by sex. This ain't about the natural biological drive—we all got that—but about how the modern world, with social media and all these ass models, is using sex to control men in ways our grandparents never dealt with. I break down how this weakens our discipline and how that's playing a big role in the collapse of Western society. If the men are off, the whole culture goes down. I've touched on this in other episodes, but today we're going deeper. Show Notes:  [02:38]#1 Life in general used to be relatively hard, especially for a man.  [11:18]#2 Sex is the top selling product of all time, and it is part of the convenient and exploitative package of easily available distraction.

Also gain exclusive access to BTS, bonus true crime episodes, a private group chat, merch discounts, and much more! www.Patreon.com/PsychopediaPod On May 13, 2025, 22-year-old influencer Valeria Márquez was executed on TikTok livestream — shot point-blank by a man disguised as a delivery driver inside her own beauty salon in Zapopan, Jalisco, Mexico. Viewers watched in horror as she clutched her chest and stomach before collapsing, still holding a stuffed animal as she perished on camera. Horrifyingly, the video footage went viral, and the calculated nature of the hit left Mexico (and the rest of the world) stunned. Investigators are continuing to explore whether the murder was cartel-related, a personal betrayal, or both. Rumors point to a possible setup by an employee or even Valeria's best friend, who allegedly urged Valeria to stay at the salon just as the killer arrived. The most widespread theory, however, ties Valeria's death to her ex-boyfriend, Ricardo Ruiz Velazco (aka “Doble R”), a high-ranking member of the Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG) cartel. One thing is certain: her execution was not random. Valeria's murder now stands as a devastating emblem of Mexico's brutal crossroads - where femicide, cartel violence, and institutional failure collide with devastating consequences.
