What happens when the worst thing you've ever done becomes the foundation for your life's work?Episode SummaryMy guest on this episode is Tom Hardin, otherwise known as Tipper X.  He's been on the show before, but this time we're tackling a different angle.If you don't already know his story, Tom was a rising star in the hedge fund world in his twenties when he became involved in insider trading. Caught by the FBI, he made the decision to cooperate — ultimately becoming one of the most prolific informants in the largest investigation of its kind in U.S. history. His work with the FBI helped secure dozens of convictions, and while his own case remained under seal for years, he eventually chose to speak publicly about what happened — not to excuse it, but to help others understand how good people can make bad decisions.If you haven't heard Tom's first appearance on the show, where he tells that extraordinary story in full, I highly recommend listening to it here before diving into this episode.Because this time, we're not talking about what he did back then; we're talking about what he's done since. Tom has built a powerful second act, using his experience to educate organisations about ethics, decision-making and behavioural risk. He's now delivered over 600 talks, and what fascinates me is how he's turned that into something both impactful and sustainable.His forthcoming book Wired on Wall Street is due out next year, and he'll be back on the show to talk about that. But for now, I wanted to explore what it means to build a career from a cautionary tale. In this conversation, we explore:How Tom built a speaking business around his past without glamourising itThe frameworks he's developed to help companies recognise ethical pressure pointsHow he navigates scepticism, manages reputation, and avoids turning his story into a performanceThe impact he hopes to have, and how he measures itThis is a conversation about vulnerability, professionalism, and doing good with what you've learned the hard way. Whether you're in compliance, leadership, education, or just curious about how we turn failure into purpose, this one's for you.Guest ProfileTom is a former hedge fund analyst turned FBI informant, now a globally recognised speaker and ethics educator. Known as Tipper X, Tom shares his story to help others understand the behavioural drivers of misconduct and the power of accountability. AI Generated Timestamped Summary00:00 – IntroductionChristian shares the origin of this episode, his relationship with Tom, and the context behind the conversation.06:30 – The label “Tipper X” and living with itTom reflects on how it feels to be known by his code name and why he uses it professionally.09:00 – What it's like to talk about the worst thing you've done, repeatedlyThe emotional and psychological toll of speaking publicly about past wrongdoing.13:00 – Keeping it fresh: updating the story and the messageHow Tom avoids becoming performative and ensures audiences always get something valuable.16:40 – Why it's not entertainmentTom draws the line between education and storytelling-as-performance, and how he avoids glamorising his past.20:50 – The business model behind Tipper XThe practicalities of how Tom has built and sustained a speaking career rooted in his past.26:30 – Frameworks and tools Tom uses in his talksHe discusses behavioural insights and models he shares with audiences to make the message stick.31:00 – The “AI homework” storyA compelling example Tom uses to explain rationalisation and ethical grey areas.36:00 – Over 630 talks: managing the workload and the missionHow Tom tracks his talks and why he keeps going despite the repetition.39:10 – Audience reactions and confessionsWhat people tell Tom after his talks — and what that reveals about corporate culture.42:30 – “Why should we pay someone who committed a crime?”Christian and Tom unpack this ethical tension and why context, intent and delivery matter.48:00 – Building trust with clients and collaboratorsThe importance of transparency, humility and boundaries in how Tom presents himself.53:20 – What success really looks likeTom reflects on purpose, legacy and the long-term impact he hopes to have.57:00 – Looking ahead: the forthcoming book and continuing the conversation.

Jonathan DiVincenzo, co-founder and CEO of Impart Security, joins the show to unpack one of the fastest growing risks in tech today: how AI is reshaping the attack surface. From prompt injections to invisible character exploits hidden inside emojis, JD explains why security leaders can't afford to treat AI as “just another tool.” If you're an engineering or security leader navigating AI adoption, this conversation breaks down what's hype, what's real, and where the biggest blind spots lie.Key Takeaways• Attackers are now using LLMs to outpace traditional defenses, turning old threats like SQL injection into live problems again• The attack surface is “iterating,” with new vectors like emoji-based smuggling exposing unseen vulnerabilities• Frameworks have not caught up. While OWASP has listed LLM threats, practical solutions are still undefined• The biggest divide in AI coding is between senior engineers who can validate outputs and junior developers who may lack that context• Security tools must evolve quickly, but rollout cannot create performance hits or damage business systemsTimestamped Highlights01:44 Why runtime security has always mattered and why APIs were not enough04:00 How attackers use LLMs to regenerate and adapt attacks in real time06:59 Proof of concept vs. security and why both must be treated as first priorities09:14 The rise of “emoji smuggling” and why hidden characters create a Trojan horse effect13:24 Iterating attack surfaces and why patches are no longer enough in the AI era20:29 Is AI really writing production code and what risks does that createA thought worth holding onto“AI is great, but the bad actors can use AI too, and they are.”Call to ActionIf this episode gave you new perspective on AI security, share it with a colleague who needs to hear it.

In this episode, Mark and Clare flip the script on traditional coaching. They reveal why the "fix-it" mentality is a trap and how the most transformative coaches empower their players to lead. Drawing on their experiences as teachers and coaches, they discuss how to build a program that is truly bigger than any one person. They cover practical strategies like asking better questions, creating a psychologically safe environment, and co-creating your team's culture. Tune in to learn how to move from being the "sage on the stage" to a "guide on the side" and unlock your team's full potential.Key Points & Timestamps(2:49) What It Means to be a "Guide on the Side"(4:26) The Power of the Pause: Giving Players a Voice(6:06) Lead with Questions, Not Answers(11:22) Using Feedback for Measurement and Motivation(15:31) Changing "Why" to "What" in Your Questions(17:56) Co-Creating Your Team's Core Values(22:26) The System: From Opportunities to Frameworks(26:26) Eliminating Clicks Through Environmental Design(28:37) Free Community Trial & Other Resources MentionedAction Items for CoachesLead with a question: The next time you see something your team is doing incorrectly, resist the urge to fix it. Instead, ask an open-ended question to get them to think about the problem themselves.Use "powerful pauses": After you ask a question, wait longer than you think you should for a response. Give your players time to process and formulate their own answers.Conduct a "thumbs up/thumbs down" check with eyes closed: To get an honest assessment of your team's understanding of a concept, have them close their eyes before giving a thumbs up or down. This removes the influence of peer pressure.Create a space for small groups: Find a way to have your players talk in small groups of 3 or 4 during practice or film sessions. This creates a safe environment for them to share their thoughts and ideas.Note to the EditorJoin the TOC Coach community: https://www.skool.com/toccoach/aboutSAVI Basketball website: https://savicoach.com/homeSAVI Basketball community: https://www.skool.com/savi-coach/aboutNew RDS course: https://savicoach.com/savi-store/product/681b57b47e0d984134dad0faLockLeft course: https://savicoach.com/savi-store/product/681b579168829870711ebc61

Welcome to Digital Learning Today. In this episode, Jeff Bradbury explores the strategic systems shaping education's future, focusing on Instructional Coaching, Artificial Intelligence, Professional Learning, and cutting-edge Educational Technology Trends. In this conversation, Greg Mertz, Director of Innovation at New England Innovation Academy, discusses NEIA's unique educational environment with its focus on innovation and entrepreneurship. He explains how the school integrates AI into its curriculum, the vital role of community engagement when navigating new technologies, and the creative spaces where students explore their passions. Mertz highlights the school's teaching approach that encourages experimentation and cross-disciplinary collaboration, emphasizing the importance of equipping students with tools for success in our rapidly changing world.

Curriculum Design and Implementation: Discover practical strategies for integrating digital learning into existing curricula, creating vertical alignment of skills, and mapping digital learning across grade levels.

The academy empowers students to discover their passions and create meaningful impact. AI serves as an educational enhancement tool rather than a replacement for teaching.

The school views generative AI as a diverse toolset that enhances learning opportunities. Creative spaces are democratized—available to all students regardless of program enrollment. The culture embraces "failing forward," encouraging students to learn from their mistakes. Curriculum development prioritizes inclusivity and accessibility for the entire student body.

What if I told you that your self-doubt is the silent killer of your dreams?

Perry Belcher is a digital marketing icon, co-founder of DigitalMarketer and the Traffic & Conversion Summit, and behind over $1 billion in sales across companies and clients. With four successful exits, multiple industry-changing brands, and world-renowned copywriting and growth systems, Perry has built, lost, and rebuilt empires—always focused on actionable results, rapid pivots, and high-leverage business creation. On this episode we talk about: Perry's journey from hustling as a kid in Kentucky to legendary exits—and colossal setbacks How he built and lost fortunes in retail, manufacturing, e-commerce, and supplements The real difference between entrepreneurs who scale and those who stall: time management and ruthless revenue focus Frameworks for explosive growth—the power of rebranding, product/market fit, and “loop diversity” versus static funnels Tactical advice on building multiple income streams and knowing when (and how) to pivot or scale Top 3 Takeaways 1.  Most business owners spend too much time on details that don't generate revenue—Perry's success comes from spending 80% on sales and growth, 20% on everything else.2.  “Loop diversity”—selling more products, expanding markets, and using multiple channels—can unlock exponential business growth once the foundation is proven.3.  Start lean, test, and only try to scale what works—then add offers, traffic, and markets when there's clear proof people want what you're selling. Notable Quotes “I've never met anybody that saved their way to financial freedom.” “Success isn't about what you know—it's about focusing on what actually pays.” “You need to do the things that don't scale before you scale, and fixate on revenue-driving activity above everything else.” Connect with Perry Belcher: LinkedIn: Perry Belcher https://perrybelcher.com/ Twitter/X: @perrybelcher ✖️✖️✖️✖️

It's not. Life is too short to make it all about our job.” “You're gonna have to do things that sometimes don't feel good to get what you really want.” "The idea is that it's not about trying to “fix it.” It's about how do I get beyond it? How do I make sure that it doesn't stop me in living the life that I wanna live?" "The more you don't want this thing to show up, it will show up. And the more you try to push it down, the stronger it pushes back." "If you focus on your purpose, the thing that you're hoping won't happen, will happen less - than if you get really hyperfocused on stopping thing." "People are craving the return to authenticity. The simplicity, the self, the inner... as technology continues to grow, the need for people to reconnect with their inner true self is gonna continue to grow." "We are social creatures. People act as mirrors... you wanna be around people that give you a certain type of wisdom, perspective, experience."   ABOUT THE HOST Uri Schneider, M.A. CCC -SLP is co-founder and leader at Schneider Speech; creator and host of Transcending Stuttering; and former faculty at the University of California, Riverside School of Medicine.   SEE ALL SHOW NOTES http://www.transcendingx.com/podcast LEARN MORE at http://www.transcendingx.com and http://www.schneiderspeech.com

Hey friends, Chase here. If social media feels heavier than it used to, you're not imagining it. Infinite feeds, algorithm whiplash, and the pressure to post “one more thing” can drain the very creativity we're trying to share. Here's the shift: treat social media like a stage you step onto with intent—not a sofa you collapse into by default. Social Media as a Stage, Not a Sofa A stage has purpose: you arrive prepared, you deliver, you connect, you step off. A sofa invites scrolling, numbing, and losing track of the most precious resource you own—your attention. When you design systems that honor the stage, you get 90% of the upside with a fraction of the noise. Create before you consume. Get your ideas out of your head and into the world first. Then study the landscape with clear eyes: What worked? What didn't? What can you improve next rep? Here's what we get into: Systems resist their systems: your schedule, not the algorithm, sets when and how you show up Frameworks, not feeds: reusable prompts and formats that make creation repeatable Stagecraft: show up to present, connect, and move the ball forward—then step off The big idea? Social platforms are powerful—when they serve your purpose. Use them as a stage: step on with intention, deliver your best, connect with your people, and step off before the sofa starts calling your name. For the full playbook—including how to set boundaries that stick—check out this week's episode of the show. Until next time—stay intentional, stay bold, and keep creating.

Do you want to use AI without losing trust? What frameworks help build trust and manage AI responsibly?  Can we really create trust while using AI?In this episode of the FIT4PRIVACY Podcast, host Punit Bhatia and digital trust expert Mark Thomas explain how to govern and manage AI in ways that build real trust with customers, partners, and society.This episode breaks down what it means to use AI responsibly and how strong governance can help avoid risks. You'll also learn about key frameworks like the ISO 42001, the EU AI Act, and the World Economic Forum's Digital Trust Framework—and how they can guide your AI practices.Mark and Punit also talk about how organizational culture, company size, and leadership affect how AI is used—and how trust is built (or lost). They discuss real-world tips for making AI part of your existing business systems, and how to make decisions that are fair, explainable, and trustworthy.

In this episode of Building Better Developers with AI, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit their earlier discussion on “Estimation Essentials” and explore how AI helps sharpen project pricing. The theme is clear: estimation is less about numbers and more about setting expectations. Developers who learn to price with confidence gain credibility, avoid stress, and build long-term client relationships. Why You Must Price With Confidence Estimation impacts far more than budgets. A clear, honest number builds trust and predictability. Vague requirements like “integrate with multiple systems” can't be priced accurately—so instead of guessing, developers must clarify scope. Saying “not enough detail to price this yet” protects both sides from disappointment. Honest estimates strengthen trust. Don't guess—clarify. Common Pitfalls When You Don't Price With Confidence The hosts highlight mistakes that derail projects: Underestimating to win a contract, then burning out. Ignoring hidden costs such as meetings, testing, and documentation. Forgetting risk buffers, leaving no room for the unexpected. Leaning on gut instinct rather than repeatable methods. By failing to price with confidence, developers risk missed deadlines, blown budgets, and damaged reputations. Frameworks to Help You Price With Confidence Rob and Michael recommend proven approaches: Bottom-up estimation – Break work into small tasks. Top-down estimation – Use data from past projects. Three-point estimation – Balance optimistic, pessimistic, and likely outcomes. Risk-first sequencing – Attack uncertain features first. These frameworks bring structure, reduce surprises, and give clients realistic options. Choosing Models That Let You Price With Confidence Pricing isn't just about numbers—it's about risk allocation. Time & Materials (T&M) – Risk stays with the client, who pays for actual work. Fixed Price – Risk shifts to the developer; scope must be crystal clear. Beware hybrid models like “T&M with caps,” which push risk onto developers without fair compensation. The key is aligning incentives so both sides win. MVP Thinking: Another Way to Price With Confidence Defining a minimum viable product (MVP) early protects the project when scope changes or budgets tighten. By locking in must-have features at the start, you can deliver value even if time or resources run short. This approach ensures clients get results and developers maintain credibility. Practical Steps to Price With Confidence Callout: Break tasks down, add a 20–30% buffer, and communicate assumptions. Follow these steps on your next project: Clarify requirements first – No assumptions left unspoken. Break into small tasks – Accurate estimates come from detail. Add buffers – Protect against risk and scope creep. Track actuals vs. estimates – Learn and refine over time. Explain assumptions – Clients trust numbers when they know the “why.” Challenge: Practice Pricing With Confidence Review your last three estimates. Where did you miss hidden costs like testing or meetings? On your next project, add a 25% buffer to that category and track whether accuracy improves. Small tweaks create more reliable pricing habits. Closing Thoughts The path to better client relationships isn't perfect numbers—it's predictable delivery. Developers who price with confidence clarify scope, tackle risks early, and communicate openly. The result? Trust, repeat business, and less stress.

If you're an expert in something, chances are, you share content about that something. But so does everyone around you. Merely sharing your expertise makes you a commodity. I can get it anywhere, and I guess you're anywhere. That's why I routinely say, you need to stop creating content and start creating IP. Your IP is built on top of your premise, the core idea informing the rest, but more experts should also develop their signature frameworks, or what our guest today calls "contextual models." Your contextual models help turn complexity into simplicity, so people go, "Wow, I get it, and I see how much more there is to know. Take me through it."Today's wonderful guest (and a master of contextual modeling) is Neen James. She's a leadership strategist who has worked with brands like Viacom, Comcast, and the Four Seasons, a fantastic keynote speaker, and the author of multiple books, including Folding Time, Attention Pays, and her latest: Exceptional Experiences: Five Luxury Levers to Elevate Every Aspect of Your Business.In our episode, Neen shares how she develops her frameworks, then delivers a signature story from her speeches and her new book which we dissect and celebrate piece by piece.This is a rare and generous look at the process of one of my favorite business authors and speakers.***ABOUT ME - IN 3 PHRASESDon't market more.

What if the very thing you're clinging to in co-parenting, the need for control, is what's keeping you from peace?

Listeners will learn how to shift from frustration to freedom and create a calmer, more resilient environment for their children. What You'll Learn: Why co-parents crave control after divorce and how it impacts anxiety The difference between healthy influence and harmful attempts to control How to respond when your ex behaves in ways you can't change Tools for modeling resilience and stability for your children A practical exercise to release control and focus on what really matters Episode Highlights: 00:00 – Why control feels like the only safety net after divorce 02:05 – The truth: you can't control your ex, your child's emotions, or transitions 05:15 – How expectations create self-fulfilling frustration 08:40 – What letting go really looks like in day-to-day co-parenting 11:25 – Surrender as freedom: shifting energy into peace, healing, and presence 13:30 – Final reflection: modeling resilience for your children Tools, Frameworks, or Strategies Mentioned: The “Expectation Audit” Exercise – writing down one thing you can't control in co-parenting, and one thing you can control. Modeling Resilience Framework – showing kids strength and calm through action rather than reacting to negativity. Closing Insight: “Your power as a parent doesn't come from controlling every variable; it comes from modeling grace, resilience, and love.” Letting go of control isn't giving up, it's reclaiming peace. Take a deep breath, release what isn't yours to manage, and focus on what truly matters: showing up for your children with stability and love.
