Don't forget to subscribe for free to our newsletter, the top 10 ideas of the week, every Monday --------- When Tamara Mellon's father lent her the seed money to start a high-end shoe company, he cautioned her: “Don't let the accountants run your business.” Little did he know that over the next fifteen years, the struggle between “financial” and “creative” would become one of the central themes as Mellon's business.Mellon grew Jimmy Choo into a billion dollar brand and her personal glamour made her an object of global media fascination. Vogue photographed her wedding. Vanity Fair covered her divorce and the criminal trial that followed. The Wall Street Journal reported on her relentless battle between “the suits” and “the creatives" and Mellon's triumph against a brutally hostile takeover attempt.But despite her eventual fame and fortune, Mellon didn't have an easy road to success. Her early life was marked by a tumultuous and broken family life, battles with anxiety and depression, and a stint in rehab. Determined not to end up unemployed, penniless, and living in her parents' basement under the control of her alcoholic mother, Mellon honed her natural business sense and invested in what she knew best—fashion.In creating the shoes that became a fixture on Sex and the City and red carpets around the world, Mellon relied on her own impeccable sense of what the customer wanted—because she was that customer. What she didn't know at the time was that success would come at a high price—after struggles with an obstinate business partner, a conniving first CEO, a turbulent marriage, and a mother who tried to steal her hard-earned wealth.Now Mellon shares the whole larger-than-life story, with shocking details that have never been presented before. From her troubled childhood to her time as a young editor at Vogue to her partnership with the cobbler Jimmy Choo, to her very public relationships, Mellon offers an honest and gripping account of the episodes that have made her who she is today.In My Shoes is a definitive book for fashion aficionados, aspiring entrepreneurs, and anyone who loves a juicy true story about sex, drugs, money, power, high heels, and overcoming adversity. This episode is what I learned from reading In My Shoes: A Memoir by Tamara Mellon. -----Ramp gives you everything you need to control spend, watch your costs, and optimize your financial operations —all on a single platform.

Daniel Shemtob is the CEO and Founder of Snibbs, a company that creates ergonomically designed, slip-resistant footwear for professionals in healthcare and hospitality. He also created the acclaimed food truck brand, The Lime Truck, which gained national attention by winning Food Network's The Great Food Truck Race twice. Building on his culinary success, Daniel opened Hatch Yakitori + Bar in Downtown Los Angeles, offering a modern take on Japanese skewers. After losing his home in the 2025 Pacific Palisades Fire, he partnered with World Central Kitchen to provide meals and Snibbs footwear to those affected. In this episode… What does it take to overcome setbacks and emerge stronger than before? From losing everything in the LA fires to weathering the tumultuous economic downturns of the past decade, resilience seems to be the cornerstone of a successful life. But how does one cultivate such tenacity in the face of adversity? Daniel Shemtob, a celebrated chef and entrepreneur, shares the candid story of his entrepreneurial journey marked by extreme highs and lows. After filing for personal bankruptcy in his early 20s following a failed real estate stint, Daniel shifted toward passion-driven work, launching the now-famous Lime Truck. Years later, when COVID-19 decimated his catering business, he doubled down on Snibbs, his footwear company, and pivoted by giving away shoes to essential workers — an act that unexpectedly catalyzed massive growth. Even after losing his home in the 2025 LA fires, Daniel partnered with World Central Kitchen to serve thousands of meals and distribute Snibbs footwear, showing that purpose and action can power recovery. Tune in to this episode of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast as John Corcoran interviews Daniel Shemtob, CEO and Founder of Snibbs, about overcoming adversity and scaling resilient brands. Daniel discusses rebounding from personal bankruptcy, how COVID-19 forced him to pivot, the inspiration behind Snibbs, and what he learned from losing his home in the LA fires.

Key Topics Covered   Life Lessons from Officiating a Wedding Karl opens up about his experience presiding over his niece's wedding. He shares heartfelt advice on partnership, the value of keeping your inner child alive, embracing life's ups and downs, and why “together forever” is a powerful North Star for couples and business partners alike. The importance of mindset—advancing, not retreating, in marriage and business—is highlighted, along with practical methods for maintaining positivity (like using standup comedy as a daily mood boost).   Licensing vs. Franchising—Profit Powerhouses Explained Karl breaks down the pivotal difference between licensing and franchising, offering memorable real-world examples:   Licensing: Earning royalties from intellectual property (like Disney does by licensing characters for merchandise) with little risk or hard cost.   Franchising: Replicating a full business model with training and brand support (think McDonald's, Subway). He spotlights the Blue Man Group's scalable licensing as a model for exponential growth and contrasts it with Siegfried & Roy's limited, high-earning but labor-dependent Vegas act. Karl also details what makes a business franchisable—and why some aren't.   Warren Buffett's Rules and Strategies for Success Karl distills Warren Buffett's timeless investment wisdom for coaches and entrepreneurs:   Understand and stick to the rules (profit, repeat business).   Seek high-margin, habit-forming opportunities (buy for a penny, sell for a dollar).   “Rule #1: Don't lose money. Rule #2: See rule #1.”   Build a personal brand and keep clients just like getting clients.   Practice extreme clarity: know what to say “yes” and “no” to.   Harness the power of compounding, but don't wait ten years—use marginal utility theory for rapid incremental growth.   Clarity, Focus, and Avoiding Distractions Karl ties elite execution to laser clarity—most entrepreneurs fail because of distraction or lack of clear direction. Eliminating distractions (social media, busy work) is as vital as mastering strategy. He advocates for serving first, delivering value before a sale, and focusing on the biggest problems you can solve.   Coaching Operating Systems and Retention Practical advice centers on using a proven coaching operating system (like Karl's Jumpstart 12 or Profit Acceleration Software) to guarantee client wins, profit acceleration, and long-term engagement.   Ready to elevate your coaching business?

On this episode of the Passive Income Playbook, Pascal Wagner interviews Joel Friedland, a veteran industrial real estate investor and founder of Brit Properties. Joel shares his journey from cold-calling tenant leads in the 1980s to building a 100+ property portfolio—all purchased without using debt. He explains the appeal and stability of Class B industrial buildings in the Chicago market, his strategy of selling to users rather than investors for premium pricing, and the importance of investing with operators who prioritize safety and long-term thinking.

On May 5, the federal government began collecting on its defaulted student loan portfolio for the first time since March 2020 for approximately five million borrowers in default.

Brett Allen is the host of The Marketing 32 Show and the Founder of Marketing 32, a dental marketing agency specializing in internal and external marketing strategies to help dental practices grow. Under Brett's leadership, Marketing 32 has successfully supported over 215 dental practices across the US, Canada, and Australia by implementing its unique Practice Impact Formula, which guarantees growth within 30 days or the service is free. Brett's journey into dental marketing started with his expertise in search engine optimization and online marketing, which he honed as a marketing director in Houston before launching his own company. In this episode… Navigating the dental marketing world can be a frustrating experience for practice owners who invest heavily in agencies yet see minimal results. With so many marketers making big promises but failing to deliver, how can dental practices ensure they choose a partner who drives growth and stands behind their work? Brett Allen, an expert in dental marketing and growth strategies, tackles this challenge by sharing the critical importance of niche specialization, performance-based guarantees, and leveraging technology like AI call tracking to ensure accountability.

Five years ago, Anthwon Thomas had a small, scrappy real estate team of just 2 or 3 people. No leverage, just hustle, heart, and a belief that more was possible.  Fast forward to today, and that same small operation has grown into a thriving team of 20 to 25 agents. They're not just holding steady in a tough market. They're outpacing it.  While many agents and teams have seen production shrink by 10 to 15%, Anthwon's team has increased its production by 47%.  So, how does that kind of transformation happen? What does it take to go from solo hustler to true team leader?  In Anthwon's journey, there are lessons every agent and aspiring team leader can learn about what it means to level up. Because it's not just about adding agents, it's about building a culture where people can thrive.  It's about systems, standards, and structure. It's about showing up not just as a top producer, but as a coach, a guide, and an example.  In this episode, Anthwon opens up about the mindset shifts, leadership challenges, and personal growth it took to go from agent to owner.    In our market, sales have been dropping 10-15% year-over-year. Since 2022, we have increased our production by 47%. -Anthwon Thomas   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The how but not the will Great team environments provide all the tools an agent needs to thrive, but not the will. How do you know that an agent has what it takes?  How to grow in a shrinking market In a market where sales are dropping by 10-15% year-over-year, how has Anthwon's team increased production by 47%?  How to fail forward  Team leaders often fall into the trap of stepping out of production too fast. How did Anthwon turn that breakdown into a business breakthrough?   Guest Bio Anthwon Thomas is the Founder of Silver Lining Real Estate Group. After watching his mother run a successful business by providing great customer service, Anthwon knew he wanted to do the same. After finding his passion in Real Estate over 9 years ago, he quickly realized there was a great lack of customer service in the industry. To continue to provide the type of high-level customer service he wanted to give, he needed to build a team. Thus, Silver Lining Real Estate Group was born! Since 2015, Silver Lining has helped over 800 families across Indiana.

Jim Manico's passion for secure coding has always been rooted in deeply technical practices—methods that matter most to developers writing code day in and day out. At OWASP Global AppSec EU 2025 Conference in Barcelona, Manico brings that same precision and care to a broader conversation around the intersection of application security and artificial intelligence.While many are still just beginning to assess how AI impacts application development, Manico has been preparing for this moment for years. Two and a half years ago, he saw a shift—traditional low-level technical bugs were being mitigated effectively by mature organizations. The new challenge? Business logic flaws and access control issues that scanners can't easily detect. This change signaled a new direction, prompting him to dive into AI security long before it became fashionable.Now, Manico is delivering AI-flavored AppSec training, helping developers understand the risks of insecure code generated by large language models. His research shows that even the best AI coding tools—from Claude to Copilot—still generate insecure code out of the box. That's where his work becomes transformative: by developing detailed, framework-specific prompts grounded in decades of secure coding knowledge, he has trained these tools to write safer code, using React, Django, Vue, and more.Beyond teaching, he's building. With 200 volunteers, he's leading the creation of the Artificial Intelligence Security Verification Standard (AISVS), a new OWASP project inspired by the well-known Application Security Verification Standard (ASVS). Generated with both AI and human collaboration, the AISVS already has a v0.1 release and aims for a major update by summer.For Manico, this isn't just a technical evolution—it's a personal renaissance. His deep catalog of secure coding techniques, once used primarily for human education, is now fueling a new generation of AI-assisted development. And he's just getting started.This episode isn't just about where AppSec is going. It's a call to developers and security professionals to rethink how we teach, how we build, and how we can use AI to enhance—not endanger—the software we create.Learn more about Manicode: https://itspm.ag/manicode-security-7q8iNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Jim Manico, Founder and Secure Coding Educator at Manicode Security | On Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jmanico/ResourcesJim's OWASP Session: https://owasp2025globalappseceu.sched.com/event/1wfpM/leveraging-ai-for-secure-react-development-with-effective-prompt-engineeringDownload the Course Catalog: https://itspm.ag/manicode-x684Learn more and catch more stories from Manicode Security: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/manicode-securityAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-storyKeywords: jim manico, sean martin, appsec, ai, owasp, securecoding, developers, aisvs, training, react, brand story, brand marketing, marketing podcast, brand story podcast

During the upcoming OWASP Global AppSec EU in Barcelona, Spyros Gasteratos, long-time OWASP contributor and co-founder of Smithy, to explore how automation, collaboration, and community resources are shaping the future of application security. Spyros shares the foundation of his talk at OWASP AppSec Global: building a DevSecOps program from scratch using existing community tools—blending technical guidance with a celebration of open-source achievements.Spyros emphasizes that true progress in security stems not from an ever-growing stack of tools, but from aligning the humans behind them. According to him, security failures often stem from fragmented information and misaligned incentives across teams. His solution? Bring the teams together with a shared, streamlined flow of information and automate wherever possible to reduce wasted cycles and miscommunication.At the core of Spyros' philosophy is the need to turn AppSec from a blocker into a builder. Rather than overwhelming developers with endless bug reports, or security leaders with red dashboards, programs need to reflect the actual risk appetite of the business—prioritizing issues dynamically based on impact, timing, and operational goals. He challenges the one-size-fits-all approach, advocating instead for tagging systems that defer certain risks and encode organizational priorities in automation logic.A major part of that transformation lies in Smithy, the platform he's helping build. It's designed to be “Zapier for security”—an automation engine rooted in open-source standards that allows for custom workflows without creating a tangle of fragile scripts. The idea is to let teams focus on what's unique to them, while relying on battle-tested components for the rest.Looking ahead, Spyros doesn't buy into the doom-and-gloom narrative about AI limiting developer creativity. On the contrary, he argues that AI-enabled coding frees up cognitive space for better architecture and secure design thinking. In his view, creativity doesn't die—it just shifts from syntax to strategy.This episode is more than a discussion—it's a blueprint for how teams can rally around a common goal, and how OWASP's community can be the catalyst. Tune in to hear how open-source, automation, and human alignment are redefining AppSec from the ground up.GUEST: Spyros Gasteratos | OpenCRE co-lead and Founder of smithy.security | https://www.linkedin.com/in/spyr/HOST: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | https://www.seanmartin.comSPONSORSManicode Security: https://itspm.ag/manicode-security-7q8iRESOURCESSpyros' Session: A completely pluggable DevSecOps programme, for free, using community resources (https://owasp2025globalappseceu.sched.com/event/1whCB/a-completely-pluggable-devsecops-programme-for-free-using-community-resources)Learn more and catch more stories from OWASP Global AppSec EU 2025 Conference coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/owasp-global-appsec-barcelona-2025-application-security-event-coverage-in-catalunya-spainCatch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

The rules of business are constantly evolving – and it doesn't matter what industry you're in.

Together, they dive into three key areas that will help you navigate the whirlwind of change your business faces:   1. Discover the catalyst that will drive your change. 2. Learn how to identify trends that shape your priorities and decisions. 3. Explore existing resources and strengths you can leverage for sustainable change.   You'll walk away with insights to tackle the pivotal question: How can our businesses not just keep pace but become the catalytic force, the disruptor, and the standard-setter, ensuring we remain relevant and drive our industry forward?

Maison Louis Marie (20:00) was founded in 2012 and has never taken on investment, which, according to the married couple behind the brand, Marie du Petit Thouars and Matthew Berkson, has allowed it to focus on slow and steady growth. It is profitable and does not spend excessively on influencer marketing. "We want to be careful with the brand. We really want to create a legacy brand," Berkson said. In 13 years, Maison Louis Marie has grown to sell eau de parfums, perfume oils, candles, diffusers, body wash, lotion and deodorant, among other products. It entered Sephora in 2017. A little over six months ago, it opened its first dedicated retail space, at Platform, an open-air shopping center in Los Angeles's Culver City. According to the founders, Maison Louis Marie's community members love the space and the chance to shop the brand's full collection — a smaller selection of products is carried at Sephora. "People want to smell [things IRL] — yet what each store can carry is so limited, as there are so many brands," said du Petit Thouars. "[At our store] the customer is so excited to [discover] all the things we offer that they're not aware of and to be able to touch, smell and look," said du Petit Thouars. In this week's episode of the Glossy Beauty Podcast, Sara Spruch-Feiner speaks with Berkson and du Petit Thouars about how Maison Louis Marie is meeting the current moment of fragrance mania, how it's working to attract a younger audience with its soon-to-launch hair and body mists, and what drove its first-ever celebrity endorsement. But first, co-hosts Sara Spruch-Feiner and Lexy Lebsack chat about the different ways customers discover new products nowadays, including ChatGPT's updated shopping capabilities, Wirecutter's new beauty vertical and Ulta Beauty's program transforming its salespeople into content creators.

On Thursday, the Supreme Court blocked a religious online charter school from obtaining public funding from the state of Oklahoma. In a 4–4 decision that Justice Amy Coney Barrett recused herself from, the court affirmed the Oklahoma Supreme Court's ruling that prevented St. Isidore of Seville — a Catholic online-only charter school in Oklahoma City — from receiving public funds. The court did not disclose how the justices voted in the case, only releasing a one-sentence opinion: “The judgment is affirmed by an equally divided Court.” Ad-free podcasts are here!Many listeners have been asking for an ad-free version of this podcast that they could subscribe to — and we finally launched it.
