Bryan covers the Trump administration's plan for the largest mass visa revocation in US history, a Supreme Court ruling clearing the way for new Postal Service ballot verification rules, and a DSA volunteer drive in South Carolina training members to indoctrinate children into socialism. He also breaks down a growing GOP revolt against AI data centers as Democrats turn the issue into a midterm weapon. Plus, Bryan covers Iran's new $10 million bounty on Barron Trump as its naval blockade squeeze intensifies, Palestinian kite and balloon attacks threatening a fresh flare-up in Gaza, a mega El Niño threatening global coffee, wheat, and chocolate supplies, and China's booming "hardship camps" sending spoiled kids to work on farms.

Most coaches and practitioners who stall out somewhere between 8 and 12K months assume the fix is more visibility, better credentials, or harder work. The actual gap usually sits somewhere else entirely, and once you see it, the income rollercoaster starts to make a lot more sense. In this episode, I'm breaking down the single asset that separates businesses with predictable revenue from businesses that reset every month. I call it the sales bridge, and it's the connection between everything you publish and the offer you want people to buy.  I'm also walking through what happened with a client of mine, Chris, a UK nutritionist who had been in business since 2009, podcasting since 2015, and selling high ticket one-on-one with no trouble at all. His group program was a different story. Two launches, £10,000 of ad spend on the second one, refunds, and almost no profit later, he was ready to shut the whole thing down. What we changed was smaller than you'd expect, and his revenue doubled in a year when a lot of businesses were shrinking. If your income has been resetting every month no matter how much effort you pour in, this conversation will show you exactly where the leak is and what to build instead. Timeline Highlights [00:00] – The income rollercoaster: 8 to 12K months, the occasional spike, and the reset that always follows [03:25] – Why sales that run on manual effort and good timing can never compound [04:49] – The asset that sells for you every day, including the days you don't show up [05:32] – What a sales bridge is and how it links your marketing to your paid offer [07:58] – Chris's situation: ten years in business, easy high ticket sales, and a group program nobody wanted [11:35] – Why his one-on-one had demand baked in and his group program never did [12:26] – Two launches, £10,000 in ad spend, a discount strategy, and a wave of refunds [18:59] – The podcast mention that produced six sales in a week and what it proved about his audience [23:33] – The three changes we made: a hybrid offer, thesis messaging, and getting discoverable again [29:25] – Everything we deliberately left alone, including his niche, his prices, and his podcast [32:24] – The outcome: doubled revenue, 4,500 to 13,000 followers, and a four-day week [39:27] – Who the one-on-one sales and systems audit is built for Top Quotes from the Episode "If nothing connects your marketing to your offer, your income will reset every single month no matter how much effort you pour into it." "Chasing people in the DMs and spending forty-five minutes on a call explaining your offer is what happens when nothing else in your business is doing that work for you." "You want people arriving at sales conversations with one foot already in your offer, needing one last touchpoint from you to say yes." "Demand you don't have to create is the most valuable thing in your business. Chris's one-on-one had it. His group program never did." "Lowering the price is what people reach for when an offer isn't landing, and it's almost never the thing that moves it." "Your thesis is the set of beliefs that, once someone takes them on, make your offer the obvious next step for them." "Chris didn't have a traffic problem, a skill problem, or a work ethic problem. He had marketing on one side, an offer on the other, and nothing carrying people across." Links & Resources Take the "What's Your CEO Type?"

How do you help a child who says "I'm bad at math," "I can't read," or "That's just not my thing"? In this episode, Mackenzie sits down with Alexis Wilson, growth mindset and performance coach, to discuss how parents and educators can help kids break out of fixed mindsets and build genuine self-confidence (hint: empty affirmations without evidence don't work). Plus, they confront the harsh fact that parents' hidden fears can cause more issues in kids than any lack of natural talent—and how small shifts at home can completely change a child's identity.Episode Timestamps00:00 - Introduction: Growth Mindset vs. Fixed Mindset 03:40 - The Science: How Brains Change with Neuroplasticity 05:09 - Spotting a Fixed Mindset: "That's Just Not My Thing" 06:40 - How to Change a Child's Negative Self-Talk 10:37 - Why Confidence Requires Real Evidence & Reps 17:33 - How Kids Unconsciously Pick Up Their Parents' Fears 23:14 - Are You Secretly Sabotaging Your Child's Mindset? 29:08 - The Power of "Yet" & Normalizing Mistakes 33:55 - How Growth Mindset Transforms Family Dynamics at Home 39:24 - "Mom, I'm Not Dumb": A 7th Grader's Identity Shift 42:42 - Step-by-Step: How Parents Can Reframe Limiting Beliefs Today 44:42 - Knowing When to Pivot vs. When to Keep PushingWatch the Future of Education on YouTube: www.youtube.com/@future_of_educationRead MacKenzie's Substack: futureofeducation.substack.comLearn more about our schools: 2hourlearning.com/schoolsLearn more about Alpha School: alpha.school

Garrett Marker, Chief Revenue Officer at Brex, oversees about 700 people across sales, customer success, RevOps, partnerships, enablement, and support - and this year, his goal was to aggressively scale a sales team that industry data recently ranked the third-fastest growing in tech, without letting rep performance slip. It hasn't all gone to plan. Garrett is refreshingly candid with host Josh Schachter, grading the scaling effort a "B" - what held up, what broke, and how his team turned around a slumping segment in dramatic fashion. Along the way, he explains why the battle cards that used to last a quarter now go stale in about a week, why Brex bet on human SDRs while the market rushed toward AI ones, and why the hardest part of AI products isn't selling them at all.It's a look inside the operating decisions of a CRO whose remit spans the entire customer lifecycle - from first touch through renewal and expansion. ---What You'll Learn- How a struggling Brex segment did two months' worth of revenue in eight days and the AI-assisted diagnosis behind the course correction- Why battle cards that used to last a quarter are now stale within about a week- How AI role plays and automated call scoring turned weeks or months of rep ramp into hours or days- Garrett's build-vs-buy rule- What Brex's internally built "narrative platform" does that seller-productivity tools don't (mapping the full buyer's journey across sales, CS, and support)- The question Garrett asked at the end of every demo as a seller and the rep whose career it transformed in three months- How the TAP program works- Why adoption, not sales, is the bottleneck for AI products- How a shift in CS conversations (not product changes) grew book-closing adoption 20% in twelve months- What Garrett believes it will take to increase NRR by 30 points in the next couple of years---Timestamps0:00 - Preview & Intro1:52 - Meet Garrett Marker (CRO, Brex) 4:03 - Why founders buy like consumers5:28 - Scaling the third-fastest-growing sales team in tech7:28 - Solving today's AND tomorrow's problems9:25 - 2 months of revenue in 8 days after a segment course correction11:22 - How AI made competitive diagnosis faster14:37 - Rebuilding enablement around AI and ramping reps in days17:27 - How Brex decides build vs. buy18:35 - Mapping the full buyer's journey across sales, CS, and support21:38 - Success plans and buyer psychology25:56 - Why won't you move forward?27:53 - How SDRs earn on-the-spot promotions to AE32:52 - Post-sale priorities: cracking AI product adoption at scale35:11 - Why CS teams must understand the whole tech stack, not just their product (+20% book-closing adoption)---Josh is writing a book on building customer relationships.

The hosts discuss confusion caused by Microsoft's email warning that Publisher will end in October 2026 and urging users to convert files to PDF. Jerry shares how he's been using AI—especially Claude (and sometimes ChatGPT)—to speed up IT work: creating an Addigy printer pool by assigning static IPs to flaky Brother network printers, analyzing Mac logs with Claude to find a runaway Chrome render process causing memory pressure, and using the Quitter app to auto-quit Chrome as a workaround for battery and performance issues. He also describes fixing a weak UniFi doorbell connection by creating a 2.4GHz-only SSID and broadcasting it on multiple access points. The conversation broadens to AI guardrails, environmental and economic concerns, and social impacts. They cover security-minded IoT network segmentation, Sonos reliability, a client scare about entering a Mac password prompted by Touch ID autofill in private browsing, RingCentral sidebar customization, presbyopia eye drops, and phone accessory tips including ESR screen protectors, Spigen cases, camera lens vulnerability, battery health, and pros/cons of Apple's iPhone Upgrade Program.   00:00 Podcast Kickoff Banter 00:19 Microsoft Publisher Panic 01:39 AI Fixes Printer Deployments 04:19 Claude Reads Mac Logs 05:53 Quitter App Chrome Workaround 08:14 AI Ethics and Guardrails 12:07 AI Economy Bubble Talk 16:03 UniFi Doorbell WiFi Fix 20:23 IoT Networks and VLAN Trust 25:00 Sonos Reliability Updates 28:12 Experian Password Scare 30:06 Touch ID Prompts Confuse Users 32:00 V-Neck and Beard Side Chat 32:18 Beard and Shirt Banter 32:54 Eye Drops for Presbyopia 35:23 Screen Reflections on Calls 37:11 RingCentral Sidebar Hack 39:21 Best Budget Screen Protectors 41:58 Do You Even Need Protectors 44:27 Cracked Camera Lens Mystery 47:06 Battery Health and Upgrade Temptation 52:07 iPhone Upgrade Program Debate 57:54 Wrap Up and Sign Off

Your gut lining is thinner than you think — and that single fact may explain your skin issues, hormonal chaos, and stubborn inflammation. Dr. Kellyann Petrucci, known as the Queen of Bone Broth, joins Dr. Axe to walk through the food-based protocols she has used with patients for 30 years to heal the gut, support collagen, and ease menopause symptoms naturally. **In this episode:** - Why bone broth and collagen directly repair the gut lining — and which amino acids (glycine, proline, hydroxyproline) are doing the work - The counterintuitive reason raw vegetables can make gut problems worse, and what to eat instead when your digestion is already compromised - How the HPA axis drives hot flashes and what cortisol management actually looks like in a menopause protocol - Why blood sugar is almost always the upstream problem behind heart risk — and how metabolic flexibility through bone broth fasting addresses the root cause - The case for a “mono diet” during acute gut distress, drawn from Dr. Kellyann's clinical experience and her time studying at a Swiss healing clinic - How spirituality, gratitude, and reducing chronic stress affect cellular healing — and why Dr. Kellyann considers this non-negotiable in practice Uncover what's really going on in your body with advanced biomarker testing for hormones, thyroid, and metabolism— plus a 1-hour consultation with a Senior Health Advisor! → ⁠http://mybloodwork.com⁠ Thank you to our sponsors!

Why does the average dog now live 7 fewer years than one did in the 1970s? Holistic veterinarian Dr. Judy Morgan says the answer is sitting in the food bowl, and it's fixable. With 36 years in practice and a base in traditional Chinese veterinary medicine, Dr. Judy Morgan explains how food became the foundation of her work, why dry kibble fails dogs and cats, and the simple whole foods that add years of healthy life. This is a rare episode on how pet health and human health mirror each other. Meet our guest Dr. Judy Morgan (DVM, CVA, CVCP, CVFT) is an integrative veterinarian, acupuncturist, chiropractor, food therapist, and best-selling author with more than 40 years in animal health. Named IAOTP Holistic Veterinarian of the Decade for 2024, she runs Dr. Judy Morgan's Naturally Healthy Pets, helping pet parents worldwide heal with food and natural therapies instead of defaulting to chemicals and processed food.

Dry kibble is capped near 30% meat and can be 50 to 60% carbohydrates, which pets do not require. Roughly 40% of pet-food ingredients are upcycled byproducts, and unnamed "meat meal" can be any species. Pets test 10 to 25 times higher than their owners for cancer-linked household chemicals. Low phosphorus and high moisture matter far more than restricting protein in kidney disease. Cheap whole-food toppers like sardines, eggs, blueberries, and pumpkin make a real difference. Delaying spay or neuter protects joints, hormones, and longevity in large breeds.   Episode highlights 00:00 The dog healed by food, and the owners who lost 200 pounds 06:37 Why moisture matters more than the bag admits 26:53 What really goes into "meat meal" 32:29 Pets need zero carbohydrates 42:12 Lifespan 17 to 10, and why it's reversible 44:45 The cheap whole foods to add today 59:04 The spay and neuter timing rethink Links Watch it on YouTube: https://youtu.be/mU0sdbXCj3s  Full episode show notes: https://outliyr.com/273 Connect with Nick on social media Instagram Twitter (X) YouTube LinkedIn Easy ways to support Subscribe Leave an Apple Podcast review Suggest a guest Do you have questions, thoughts, or feedback for us?

Here is the scenario I want you to picture. A casting director, an agent, a direct marketing client lands on your page. They have 17 seconds and zero obligation to stay. In those 17 seconds your website either answers the question, can this person do what I need, or it does not. Most voiceover websites do not answer that question. Not because the actor is not talented. Because the website is not doing its job. And I say this as someone who has had a big reality check handed to me that I feebly and graciously accepted. So today I am going to walk you through five questions so you can audit your own website right now. Pull it up on your phone. Mobile is actually better because most people are hiring voice actors on mobile. Got it? Good. Let's go. Question One: Is Your Demo Above the Fold Above the fold means visible without scrolling. You land on the site and boom, there is your hero audio. This was an issue for me for about ten years. I had an image of myself, a little blurb, logos, and then my audio came. If someone lands on your homepage and has to scroll past a hero image, a headline, a bio paragraph, three sections of copy, and more logos before they hear a single second of your audio, you have already lost most of them. Your demo should be the first thing. The audio is the product. Everything else is context. Friction does not have to be enormous to be fatal. Even one extra click, one moment of confusion, one second of wondering whether the page is broken is enough to lose someone who has 80 other submissions waiting. Question Two: Is There Any Text Around Your Audio Player This one surprises people. Google cannot listen to your demo. If there is no text on your page describing what your demo covers, what vertical it is, what kind of clients you work with, Google has nothing to index. Your demo could be perfect and completely invisible to search engines. Here is exactly what I write and what you can adapt. Two to three sentences above the player. Mine says female commercial voiceover for national and regional brands. Warm, conversational, bright, retail, luxury, and everything in between. You can also add text below the player including your actual clients. Clients include blank. Source connect ready. Most projects delivered within 24 hours. That is not even 60 words. Do this for every audio section on your site. It is the single fastest SEO fix available and almost nobody does it. Question Three: What Does Your Page Title Say Go to your browser tab right now and hover over the tab your website is in. If it says Home or Professional Voice Actor or just your name, you have a problem. The page title is one of the most important SEO signals on your entire site and most voice actors leave it as the default. It should say something like female voice actor, commercial, e-learning, characters, your name. You can change this in your backend. In Squarespace it is the gear icon next to your homepage. While you are there also update your favicon, the little image that shows up in the browser tab. Casting people and agents have a lot of tabs open. Make it easy for them to find you. Use your headshot, not a generic microphone icon. Question Four: How Many H1 Tags Does Your Homepage Have The answer is one. One. An H1 tag is the main heading that tells Google what your page is about. Most voice actor websites built on drag and drop platforms accidentally tag every section headline as H1 because the builder defaults to it. I am raising my hand because that was me. Your main headline should be heading one. Everything else should be heading two, three, or normal. Go through and fix every one that is wrong. Question Five: Does Your Homepage Tell People What to Do Next This is the one almost everybody skips. Is there a clear call to action? Not a generic contact me buried in your footer. A specific visual next step. Hire me, listen to my demo, send me a project, ask me about a quote, contact me for a custom sample. If someone wanted to reach you after listening to your audio, how many clicks does it take? If the answer is more than one, that is too many. And if your contact form has too many required fields, fix it. You need their name, their email, and their message. That is it. Anything else and people will pass. The Bottom Line Your website has one job. Answer the question, can this person do what I need, before the visitor leaves. If it is not doing that right now, you now know where to start. Fix at least one thing today. Then fix another one tomorrow. This stuff compounds, and it will help you show up in search. Want to Keep the Conversation Going? I have a full 32-point checklist covering technical SEO, audio placement, content, conversion, design, and platform. It is in my Substack and will be in the show notes. Grab it and go through it. I also do something called a website colonoscopy. You can schedule that the same way you would schedule time with me. Reach out at mandy@actingbusinessbootcamp.com. Share this with another actor who needs to hear it. See you next time.        

Send us Fan MailAfter 30 years running companies and multiple nine-figure exits, Joel Trammell noticed something no one else was building: software for every function of a business except the one running all of them. In this episode, he breaks down why the CEO seat has operated on instinct for decades, the five things only a CEO can actually do, and how he's built an AI platform designed to finally give CEOs the operating system every other role already has.What You Will LearnYou'll learn why CEO failure follows a predictable pattern, and why founders who scaled by doing everything themselves eventually hit a wall they can't out-work.

Can one molecule almost double our lifespan?Chris Burres is the founder and chief scientist at MyVitalC, the oldest and longest manufacturer of the Nobel Prize-winning ESS60 molecule. He came here to explain why almost nobody has heard of it.The story gets stranger the further in we go. Rice University scientists discovered this ball-shaped carbon molecule in 1985. It performs better than most existing materials in batteries, tires, and inks, and its antioxidant properties are far more powerful than vitamin C. Then a French toxicity study produced unexpected longevity results.Chris outlines the manufacturing process, the liver recovery data, the cancer cell study, the sleep testimonials, and the pet results that leave placebo out of the argument.If you've ever taken C60 and wondered whether you were drinking expensive pee, this one is for you.Visit myvitalc.com/lukestorey and use code STOREY for $30 off your first order.You'll learn:[0:00] Introduction[5:38] The rat study that found 90% longer lifespans[14:15] The graphite-vaporizing, oxygen-free reactor process behind manufacturing pure ESS60[21:18] Adding "not for human consumption" while biohackers kept calling about their 275-pound rats[34:14] The multi-billion-person sleep study we run every daylight savings time[48:47] Why five ampoules a flight became part of my air travel arsenal[55:29] Exploring whether C60 can detox your brain the way activated charcoal can't[1:27:50] The gossip behind the Nobel Prize and the grad students who discovered it but got nothing[1:37:50] Why manually stacking the youth peptide and ESS60 beats using an emulsifier[1:42:45] The Sesame Street test for spotting C60 products that contain zero C60[1:50:39] Three teachers who shaped ChrisResources Mentioned:Wizard Sciences: Use code LUKE for 15% off all products!

If you host collaborations or work with affiliate partners, you know the drill. You build the swipe file, you send the Drive link, and half the people who said yes never actually promote.Dr. Destini Copp fixed that. She has Claude read a partner's own emails and website, learn how that person writes, then build them a personalized page in their voice with their coupon code and copy they can paste in as-is. One affiliate used just the PS and made six sales. This isn't an AI-for-speed story. It's AI used to make something more personal than she could have made it by hand, which is a use case almost nobody's talking about.What you'll learn:The affiliate setup that turns a "hard no" ask into an easy yesWhy she built the first page manually and never had to build anotherHow to use AI for customization instead of volumeThe anatomy of a free event that brings in $30k to $50kWhere an AI power user still insists on a human, every timeCHAPTERS01:15 Two businesses, a full time job, and AI04:27 The affiliate page that changed everything09:43 Six sales from a single PS11:04 What she was doing before this14:20 The Claude skill that builds the whole package19:30 How free events pay contributors twice24:49 Where the revenue lift actually showed up29:32 Inside the $37 to $50,000 funnel32:11 The one job she won't give to AI34:48 The 1% better rule>MEET DESTINIIntroducing wAIvThis episode is brought to you by wAIv—our brand-new platform built for online experts who want to securely build and sell AI tools powered by YOUR thinking, YOUR frameworks and YOUR methodology.wAIv helps you create Bot Squads—a suite of AI tools that work together to help your clients implement your expertise faster and with better results than ever before.>Your Next Steps:

How often should you follow up without becoming the person who feels like they're haunting someone's inbox? In this episode of Follow-Up Quick Tips, Sally breaks down why one follow-up is rarely enough and shares practical follow-up rhythms for both new leads and people who have already shown interest. She also explains the ATC (Attempt to Contact) approach and why your follow-ups should be useful, purposeful, and slightly different each time. You'll learn how to create a simple three-message follow-up rhythm: reconnect after the initial conversation, provide something genuinely helpful, and then close the loop respectfully if you still haven't heard back. The key isn't sending more messages—it's being consistent and making every message count. Your GSD action is to create your own simple three-message follow-up sequence so you always know what to send and when.

Episode 900 feels like a fitting reminder that almost every worthwhile project comes with a few unexpected lessons.This week I spent another long day clearing the future solar field, including dropping several large trees and one rotten dead tree that decided to make things a little more interesting than I'd planned. Fortunately, everything—and everyone—ended up on the ground where it belonged.Back inside the cabin, we're still chasing the vinyl floor bubbles. After sorting through plenty of internet advice, we tested several repair methods, found a couple that were a complete waste of time, and one that actually looks promising. If you're installing sheet vinyl yourself, this may save you some frustration.I also talk about the latest video in the solar build series covering the tools I'm using to clear the property, why I've been intentionally rebuilding my Nostr habit after getting burned out on traditional social media, and finish with a discussion about how Flock license plate cameras are being used in ways that go well beyond simply finding stolen cars.Topics include:• Clearing trees for the off-grid solar project• Safely dealing with standing dead timber• Repairing bubbles in sheet vinyl flooring• The tools making land clearing easier• Rebuilding healthier social media habits with Nostr• Flock cameras and expanding surveillance• Cabin build progress• Bitcoin and the LOTS communityThanks for listening and for helping this show reach 900 episodes.

This week's episode comes from the second week of August, following one of the driest Julys on record. The allotment and kitchen garden are both feeling the strain, with soil baked so hard that water beads on the surface and runs off rather than soaking in. Despite the challenges, progress continues — from experimenting with greywater filtration to planning green manures and keeping established crops alive through the drought. Allotment Update: Hydrophobic Soil & Survival Mode The main theme this week is hydrophobic soil — ground so dry and compacted that it actively repels water. Beds have become rock‑hard, making digging, planting and watering difficult. Watering still has to be done by hand with cans, taking up to two hours to give each bed a proper deep soak. It's heavy work, but essential for keeping established crops alive. With conditions too harsh for planting out young plants, the focus has shifted to: Keeping mature crops alive with deep, infrequent watering Delaying new plantings until the soil can absorb moisture again Planning ahead by clearing beds for a potato‑specific green manure Tidying perennial areas like the gooseberry patch and bramble‑filled corners Preparing for wetter weather so the site is easier to manage when conditions improve Green manures have been a success in previous seasons, helping reduce pests and disease, and with blight not yet appearing this year, it's a good moment to prepare beds for next year's potato rotation. Kitchen Garden: Greywater Trials & Practical Housekeeping At home, the drought has prompted a deeper look at greywater reuse. After a failed experiment using water mint as a natural filter, a more structured filtration system has been tested: A bucket drilled with holes Layers of gravel, sand, charcoal and straw Some success in removing contaminants Some soap residues still present It's an ongoing experiment, but a promising step toward making greywater safer for garden use during droughts. Other practical jobs this week include: A garage clear‑out, removing broken petrol tools and freeing up space A renewed focus on repairable, durable or compostable items to reduce waste Sowing overwintering onions and radish for supporters, though germination is uncertain in the dry soil Using mulches and compost to help established plants cope with the heat Recipe of the Week: Smoked Sweetcorn & Courgette Salad This week's recipe is a vibrant summer dish that makes the most of seasonal produce: Smoked sweetcorn and courgette salad with chilli butter croutons Charred sweetcorn and courgette Lime‑honey‑mustard dressing Crisp chilli‑spiced breadcrumbs It's colourful, flavourful and pairs beautifully with grilled chicken — a perfect late‑summer plate. Hydrophobic Soil: Causes, Fixes & Long‑Term Prevention The episode closes with a detailed look at hydrophobic soil — what causes it, how to fix it, and how to prevent it in future droughts. Why Soil Becomes Hydrophobic Organic particles dry out and harden Soil structure collapses Water beads and runs off instead of soaking in Beds flood when rain finally arrives because water cannot penetrate Short‑Term Fixes Repeated light watering with a fine rose Laying damp hessian or cardboard to soften the surface Bottom‑watering containers to wick moisture up Gentle, patient rewetting rather than one heavy soak Long‑Term Prevention Regular additions of organic matter Consistent mulching with straw, leaf mould or woodchips Avoiding complete drying by giving a light weekly watering during drought Using soil conditioners like coir or biochar Adding shade or wind protection for exposed raised beds Slow, deliberate watering or drip irrigation to allow moisture to penetrate These techniques help rebuild soil structure, improve moisture retention and make gardens more resilient as droughts become more freq...

Alliance Tournaments are coming back to Star Trek Fleet Command, and they're returning FAST. But is that actually a problem? In this episode of Talking Trek, DJz, Griffin, Tarpy and the crew break down the latest Alliance Tournament updates, including known bugs, reward increases, additional reroll currency, duplicate tasks, the new importance of alliance leaderboard scoring and how players may need to completely rethink their strategy if tournaments begin running more frequently. Then we dive deep into the return of Makala's Crucible. How good are the rewards? Are the officer shard pulls worth the grind? What does the RNG really look like, and can players exploit the overlap between Crucible objectives and the upcoming Alliance Tournament to make both events significantly easier? We examine training drones, waves, Duo Waves, officer shards, task selection and why sometimes the “good enough” task may actually be smarter than waiting endlessly for the perfect one. We also tackle the ongoing controversy surrounding the Gilded Shackle, take a look at Galactic Anomalies, examine competitive Alliance Tournament scoring with STFC.PRO data and discuss a major pricing change to the Territory Capture Pass, which dropped from $50 to roughly $20 while retaining much of its previous reward value. And because this is Talking Trek, the studio loses power, DJz discovers his UPS protects everything EXCEPT his internet connection, Griffin helps shop for another battery backup live on the podcast, and Maia somehow gets piped directly into the show and immediately begins predicting Alliance Tournament bugs. Totally normal Thursday evening.

This is the second episode in Beyond Polarization, a special series about what polarization is costing Americans, and what we can actually do about it. You can find Episode 1, where we analyze research on polarization and disagreement, here. In this episode: how the news media can do less to reinforce polarized narratives, and more to meet the needs of audiences. Journalism is an essential component of our democratic system. But when it comes to politics, how much reporting do you read that actually helps you decide who to vote for? During an election cycle, candidates tell the press that if elected, they'll work to solve problems that matter to their voters. Those with more controversial opinions or spicy personal backgrounds get more airtime. And pundits prognosticate about which candidate can win which demographic.  Yet between elections, there's a lot less coverage of how office holders are fulfilling their campaign promises, or trying to. News organizations cover corruption and scandal, an important role of journalism. But what about when things go right?   Without good information about solutions to society's problems, it's easier to vote based on fear of the other side, vote along party lines, or just stay home. Outside of politics, everyday news coverage skews negative too. Our guests this episode are journalists committed to reporting on communities and current events in de-polarizing ways. They do that by focusing on what people need and want and how politics could affect that: covering the stakes, not the odds.  Tina Rosenberg is a Pulitzer-prize-winning reporter and cofounder of the Solutions Journalism Network, which promotes rigorous reporting on solutions to social problems. At the New York Times, she wrote the Fixes column with David Bornstein. Sarah Jane Weaver is the editor-in-chief of the Deseret News based in Salt Lake City, Utah – one of the first outlets to embrace the Solutions Journalism model in the 2010s. Weaver first joined Deseret as a reporter in 1995.  Resources mentioned in this episode: “The Perception Gap: How False Impressions are Pulling Americans Apart,” report from More in Common Americans' Trust in Media Remains at Trend Low, 2024 Gallup poll Outlier Media, local news outlet in Detroit that provides information on housing, utilities and other essential information via text Sisters fight to pick up the pieces after catastrophic car crash, reporting by the Deseret News Small-town America is arguing over whether to welcome Syria's refugees or fear them, story by The World from PRX ABOUT THE SHOW The Making Peace Visible podcast is hosted by Jamil Simon and produced by Andrea Muraskin.

Episode Summary If you've read one burnout wellness listicle, you've read them all — sleep more, take a walk, set boundaries, breathe. Karen and Michelle aren't repeating any of that, because you already know it. Instead, Episode 350 treats burnout as a business risk: something that shows up on your profit and loss statement before it shows up in a therapist's notes. Industry surveys show 91% of PR professionals reported poor mental health in the past year, 54% of solo founders reported burnout, and burnout is now cited as the single biggest predictor of solo business failure, ahead of bad strategy. In the episode, the hosts discuss four fixes, none of them spa days: an absence clause in your standard client agreement, a named backup partner you have already introduced to key clients, a deliberate client mix redesign to reduce decision fatigue, and a financial runway fund treated exactly like a quarterly tax line item. They close on the business case for community — not as a soft add-on, but as the operational fix that addresses isolation at 7.6 out of 10 and gives you back the reality-check system that disappears when you work alone. This is a milestone 350th episode that sounds less like an anniversary, and more like a conversation your business has needed for a while. Episode Highlights [00:38] Burnout as a Business Risk, Not a Wellness Topic: Karen reframes the episode before the intro ends: this is not a wellness listicle. Burnout shows up on your P&L before it shows up in a therapist's notes. The solo-specific dimension, as Michelle names it, is structural — you are the entire org chart, and there is no one to hand anything to. That changes both the causes and the fixes. [01:51] The Industry Data: What the Numbers Actually Show: Karen walks through PR-specific research: half of PR professionals surveyed had seriously considered leaving in the past year because of burnout, 44% had actually left a previous job for the same reason, 96% report trouble switching off after work, and 88% say work interrupted their vacation at least once — with almost half of those reporting more than three interruptions per year. A separate survey from the PR and Communications Association and the Chartered Institute of PR found 91% of PR professionals reported poor mental health in the past year. Karen and Michelle flag that some of this data is a couple of years old but note nothing about how the industry operates suggests it has improved. [04:47] The Solo-Specific Layer: Burnout as the Top Business Failure Predictor: Founder research places burnout among solo founders at around 54%, with three in four reporting anxiety episodes. The finding that stops Karen mid-sentence: burnout is now cited as the single biggest predictor of solo business failure — ahead of bad strategy, wrong niche, or incorrect pricing. Solo founders self-report loneliness at 7.6 out of 10 on average. Karen's framing: isolation is not just an emotional problem; it is an operational problem with a measurable business cost. [07:29] Why Standard Burnout Advice Doesn't Apply to Solos: The wellness industry's standard prescription assumes a team, a manager, HR, and PTO policies. Solos have none of those. Michelle's point lands clearly: you can't delegate to reduce your load, you can't call in sick without a client impact, and you can't take a vacation without first solving the 'who covers this' problem from scratch. The fixes that work for employed practitioners are structurally inapplicable. You need fixes that match the actual org chart — which is you. [08:43] Fix 1: The Absence Clause in Your Standard Client Agreement: Karen's first structural fix: add a clause to your standard client contract that spells out what happens when you are unavailable, planned or unplanned. What is the notification window, what is the contingency, and who is the named backup? Michelle flags that this is not a sign of weakness but a business continuity feature. Any smart client would want to see it from a vendor they're paying. Karen: tell clients about that arrangement before an emergency forces the conversation, and frame it as exactly what it is. [12:25] Fix 2: A Named Backup Partner You Have Already Introduced: The second fix goes further than just having a backup plan. You need a specific named person your clients already know exists. Not a theoretical arrangement you'd scramble to activate in a crisis, but a relationship you've built in advance with someone whose work you trust and who understands your clients well enough to step in without a cold start. Karen and Michelle both note this is one of the highest-value things the Solo PR Pro community provides: a vetted pool of peers you can actually trust with a client when you need to step back. [16:52] Fix 3: Redesign Your Client Mix to Reduce Decision Fatigue: The Muck Rack data Karen cites shows 45% of PR pros juggling seven or more projects or accounts at once, with workload named as the single biggest stressor in the survey. Michelle makes the decision-fatigue case: ten small project clients each with their own cadence, tools, and personal definition of urgent will burn you out faster than three deeper retainer relationships, even if the revenue is identical because you're spending more of yourself per dollar earned. Fewer relationships, fewer daily judgment calls, less strain on your brain. Karen connects this directly to the specialization economy episode: specializing isn't just a pricing play, it's a nervous system play. [22:59] Fix 4: A Financial Runway Earmarked for Stepping Back: The fourth fix is specific: treat two to four weeks of 'totally unreachable' as a budget line item you're actually saving toward, in the same lane as quarterly taxes. Karen calls it burnout insurance. The logic: if the money already exists for the pause, you are far more likely to take it before you are forced into it by illness or collapse. This doesn't mean saving a large sum immediately; it means building the habit and giving the fund a name, which makes it real rather than just a thought you swat away before the next task. [25:20] Community as an Operational Fix, Not a Soft Add-On: Karen and Michelle close on the business case for community framed explicitly as an operational fix in the same category as a contract clause or a financial buffer. Karen's framing: when you're the only person in the room, you lose the ability to tell the difference between 'this is genuinely urgent' and 'I've been alone with this problem too long and it started to feel enormous.' A peer network gives you that reality-check system back. Michelle: for a solo, community may be the single highest-leverage structural fix on the entire list. [28:10] The One Takeaway Karen Wants You to Leave With: Karen's closing ask: don't let the takeaway be 'try to relax more.' Instead, audit your business the way you would audit a client's crisis plan. Where is your single point of failure? What actually happens if you're offline, unplanned, for 48 hours? If you don't have an answer, that's your project for this month. Not a retreat. Not a spa day. A contract clause, a named backup partner, an honest client mix review, and a runway line item.

Not every business needs a complicated follow-up system—but every business does need the right follow-ups happening consistently. In this episode of Follow-Up Quick Tips, Sally shares the three essential follow-up stages every business should have in place: inquiry follow-ups, appointment follow-ups, and proposal or quote follow-ups, along with why consistency matters more than complexity. Learn how to create a simple follow-up process by deciding when each follow-up happens, who owns it, what the message says, and what to do if there's no response. Your quick action is to identify which of these three follow-up systems is least consistent in your business and improve that one first to stop opportunities slipping through the cracks.

Get in touch - leave me a messageCarbon accounting can send companies straight at the wrong problem. A visible sustainability initiative may feel productive while the real emissions hotspot sits in raw materials, product design or the supply chain.My guest is John Beath, CEO and Chief Technical Director of John Beath Environmental, whose work in lifecycle assessment helps companies test assumptions before they commit money, engineering effort or supplier changes. The stakes are practical: get the system boundary wrong, and a product carbon footprint can misdirect investment rather than improve it.We examine why Scope 3 emissions so often dwarf what happens inside the factory, why bio-based or recycled materials are not automatically the lower-carbon choice, and what leaders miss when durability, reverse logistics or avoided emissions are left out. We also unpack the solar-panel case where the presumed hotspot was silicon—but the decisive intervention was elsewhere.Listen now to understand how better lifecycle assessment can expose the carbon decisions that matter most—and stop your organisation spending heavily on fixes that barely move the needle.Sign up to Climate Confident+ for deep dive analysis of the major climate and energy stories of the day.Support the showPodcast subscribersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's amazing subscribers:Anita KrajncCecilia SkarupaBen GrossJerry SweeneyAndreas WernerStephen CarrollRoger ArnoldAnd remember you too can Subscribe to the Podcast  - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent Climate Confident episodes like this one, as well as give you access to the entire back catalog of Climate Confident episodes.

Most AP automation projects don't fail because of the solution purchased — they fail because of a few predictable, easy to fix issues inside the AP process. Whether you're looking for a new AP automation solution or trying to rescue one you already have, the same failure points show up again and again. Today, I'm breaking down the real reasons AP automation fails and the simple fixes that prevent these breakdowns so you can choose the right solution — or finally make your current one work the way it should. #apautomation #invoiceautomation #automation #automationpitfalls T he Automation Traps Nobody Warns You About https://youtu.be/Ulz6gjdYgGk Subscribe for more tips and insights like this: https://www.youtube.com/APNow?sub_confirmation=1 Looking for more of the most current business intelligence about + Best practices around your payment and accounts payable function + Current and new fraud protection protocols + The newest technology impacting your accounting, accounts payable, and payment functions + Career advancement +And much more!! +++++++++++++++++++++++ See most recent videos at: https://www.youtube.com/@APNow/videos See all short tips at: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtL6rWSXZ-He5ELp9TP3wqQdHIbfIcFAB Learn more about AP Best Practices; Playlist at: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtL6rWSXZ-HcvMSJTdNs0BCQJ0Ivb4l9V Learn more about Internal Controls in AP; Playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtL6rWSXZ-HdV9JIterJ-bf6TwMset_z_ Looking for Automation insights: Playlist at: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtL6rWSXZ-Hf_cZwQOcDZrYV4dA0oDVby Avoid common AP automation mistakes that cause project failure. Learn how to fix ERP integration issues and reduce manual data entry. Many finance teams struggle with AP automation because they overlook critical technical requirements early on. This guide breaks down why standard implementation plans fail, specifically focusing on the disconnect between software capabilities and existing ERP integration needs. If you are preparing to implement new systems, understanding these potential pitfalls is essential for a successful transition. We also examine the hidden impact of manual data entry requirements that often persist after automation goes live. By identifying these gaps in your accounts payable process before you commit to a vendor, you can ensure your project delivers actual efficiency gains rather than new operational headaches.

AP automation failure often stems from predictable errors made during the planning phase. Learn to secure your project. Many finance teams rush into purchasing software without fully vetting how the product aligns with their existing ERP integration. This oversight creates a disconnect that forces staff to continue performing manual data entry long after the system goes live. If you are responsible for digitizing your accounts payable process, you must identify these gaps before signing a contract to ensure the technology actually saves time. This breakdown highlights specific project pitfalls that cause automation initiatives to stall. By focusing on the technical requirements that vendors often gloss over, you can protect your budget and avoid the operational headaches that plague poorly planned deployments.

Why do so many enterprise AI initiatives begin with impressive demonstrations but struggle to produce measurable business value? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Dom Selvon, CTO and value partner at Valiance, about enterprise AI ROI, outcome-based consulting, build versus buy decisions, proprietary data, ontologies, and governance. Valiance is an AI-native consultancy that charges against client outcomes rather than hours worked. Dom explains why his "value partner" title is deliberate. The company begins by identifying the financial or operational result a client wants and connects its own compensation with achieving that result. Dom argues that many AI initiatives begin without a clear definition of success. The pressure to adopt AI is real, but companies frequently select technology before agreeing on the business problem, desired outcome, or measurement. He identifies three recurring mistakes. The first is framing the project around AI rather than the business need. The second is failing to establish a metric and baseline before work begins. The third is using a consulting model that rewards billable time without connecting payment to the client's result. We also discuss how generative AI is changing traditional build versus buy decisions. Companies historically bought software because custom development was slow, expensive, and difficult to maintain. Coding agents can now reduce the time and cost required to create software for specific internal needs. Dom does not believe SaaS will simply disappear. However, vendors selling convenience, workflow wrappers, or integration glue face new competition from customers who can create similar capabilities themselves. He argues that stronger SaaS positions will depend on assets a model cannot easily regenerate, including proprietary data, networks, regulatory standing, and deep workflow adoption. This leads to a wider discussion about competitive advantage. When companies have access to similar models, generated code begins to converge. Dom believes lasting differentiation comes from company data, institutional knowledge, connected systems, employee experience, and the semantic context surrounding that information. Dom explains why ontologies matter to enterprise AI. Raw data tells an agent what is stored in a particular field. An ontology describes the customers, orders, contracts, payments, relationships, and business rules represented by that data. This context allows people and agents to reason about information in a way that reflects how the company actually works. Governance also needs to be designed from the beginning. Dom argues that security, permissions, accountability, and compliance allow successful pilots to expand without forcing the business to rebuild everything later. How can leaders tell when AI is genuinely being adopted? Dom offers a surprisingly simple signal: people stop talking about AI. The technology becomes part of ordinary Monday morning work, and employees focus on completing the task rather than explaining the tool. Has your company defined the business result, measurement, proprietary context, and governance required to turn AI enthusiasm into operational value? Listen to the episode and share your thoughts with me.
