Podcasts about Future proof

In this episode of The Aspiring Solopreneur, Carly and Joe get real about how to future-proof your business (and yourself) for the inevitable changes ahead. From spotting shifts in your industry to using AI and automation wisely, diversifying income streams, and planning for the long haul, this episode is your blueprint for staying resilient no matter what tomorrow throws your way.It's not about predicting the future, it's about being ready for it.Episode FAQsWhat does it mean to future-proof your business as a solopreneur?Future-proofing is all about building resilience and adaptability into your business so you can thrive no matter what changes come your way. You can't predict every trend or challenge, but you can create systems, habits, and strategies that help you pivot quickly, like setting aside time to review what's shifting in your industry, automating key tasks, and staying curious about new tools and opportunities.How can I stay on top of trends without getting overwhelmed?Be intentional about what you consume. Set up Google Alerts for your niche, use AI tools to summarize relevant updates, and curate your social media feeds to focus only on accounts that bring you value. The goal isn't to chase every shiny object,it's to pay attention to the shifts that truly impact your clients, your market, or your workflow.What's one of the smartest ways to make your business more resilient?Diversify your income streams within your expertise. For example, if you're a coach, offer 1:1 sessions, but also create a digital course, downloadable resources, or a group program. That way, if one area slows down, another can pick up the slack. Bonus points if you layer in automation so some of those streams run while you're off the clock.

Send a textThis episode of FUTUREPROOF. is different.My guest is Trevor Reed, a former U.S. Marine who was wrongfully detained and abused in a Russian gulag for nearly three years, freed in a high-profile prisoner exchange in 2022—and then made a decision few could comprehend: he voluntarily went to Ukraine to fight against the same system that imprisoned him.In this conversation, Trevor reflects on what captivity does to the human mind, how survival reshapes your definition of justice, and why freedom—real freedom—can't be taken for granted once you've lost it.We talk about:What daily life inside a Russian penal colony is actually like—and how close he came to dying thereThe mental discipline required to survive prolonged isolation, hunger, and uncertaintyThe emotional toll of being turned into a geopolitical bargaining chipWhy revenge eventually gave way to a deeper definition of justiceThe surreal contrast between everyday life and active war zones in UkraineBeing critically wounded by a landmine—and what it means to survive twiceHow his understanding of freedom, responsibility, and humanity has fundamentally changedThis is not a conversation about politics. It's a conversation about power, resilience, moral injury, and what it means to remain human when systems fail you.Trevor's memoir, Retribution: A Former US Marine's Harrowing Journey from Wrongful Imprisonment in Russia to the Front Lines of the Ukrainian War, is not an easy read—but it is an important one. And this conversation is not comfortable—but it is necessary.

In this episode of the REB Podcast, editor Liam Garman sits down with Coronis Group CEO Karuna Mazzocchi for a candid conversation on what it really takes to future-proof a real estate business as the market shifts beneath our feet. Mazzocchi explains why "good enough" is no longer good enough, how complacency quietly creeps into successful businesses, and why leaders must be willing to disrupt their own models if they want longevity in an increasingly competitive market. The pair then put digital marketing and proptech solutions under the microscope, examining what truly differentiates tools that drive performance from those that burn time and money - before diving into when it's time for agencies to make hard calls and change course. Mazzocchi also explores the tension between automation and authenticity, warning that technology should strengthen – rather than replace – human relationships, and outlining how high-performance, human-first cultures can be built and sustained across multiple offices.

What happens when a policy leader, a strategic CFO, and an AI innovation specialist all arrive at the exact same conclusion about healthcare leadership - independently? You get validation of what Tracy has been teaching for years.  In this episode, Tracy breaks down her recent roundtable with three heavyweight experts: Marc Chow (CEO of Santa Clara County Medical Association), Aaron Gold (strategic CFO), and Stephen Fogg (healthcare marketing strategist and AI specialist). Despite approaching practice management from completely different angles, they all confirmed the same fundamental truth.  Read the full show notes, memorable quotes, and key takeaways.  The consensus: Choose what needs the most work. Break it down to a simple, implementable task. Build from there.  Whether you're dealing with Medicaid cuts, prior authorization burnout, financial pressure, or innovation overwhelm - the methodology is the same. You don't need more information. You need clarity on what to prioritize and a simple next step you can actually take.  Tracy shows you exactly how Stephen Fogg's four-quadrant framework maps onto the Time Leadership Delegation Quadrant, why complexity is the enemy of implementation, and what to do this week to start future-proofing your practice.  Resources mentioned: Roundtable replay + downloadable highlights doc, Time Leadership Quadrant  Read the full show notes, memorable quotes, and key takeaways.  See Where Your Practice Stands: Take our Practice Growth Readiness Assessment  Connect With Us:  Be a Guest on the Show  Thriving Practice Community  Schedule Strategy Session with Tracy  Tracy's LinkedIn  Business LinkedIn Page 

Send us a textWhat if the most undervalued leadership skill in the AI era isn't technical fluency—but emotional presence?This episode of FUTUREPROOF. features Claude Silver, the world's first Chief Heart Officer and the No. 2 executive at VaynerX, joining the show to unpack why authenticity, empathy, and belonging are no longer “nice-to-haves,” but strategic advantages.Claude's 2025 book, Be Yourself at Work, challenges the long-standing belief that professionalism requires emotional distance. Instead, she argues that in a world defined by AI, automation, and burnout, the leaders who win are the ones who lead with heart—intentionally, skillfully, and without performative fluff.We explore:Why “authenticity” has been misunderstood—and how to practice it without oversharing or losing authorityWhat leading with heart actually looks like inside a 2,000-person global organizationHow emotional skills become power skills as AI absorbs more technical workThe difference between fitting in and true belonging—and why that gap is costing companies talent and trustHow leaders can balance emotional bravery with emotional efficiency in an always-on, high-pressure worldThis is a conversation about leadership after the old playbook breaks—and what replaces it when humanity becomes the edge.

My guest today is ⁠Gokul Rajaram⁠, Founding Partner at Marathon Management. Gokul is one of the most prolific product builders and investors of the last twenty years. He has built the core ad and product businesses at Google, Facebook, Square, and DoorDash, working at each company during its most formative scaling periods. Alongside his operating career, Gokul has invested in more than 700 companies, giving him an unusually broad view into how products are built and scaled. This conversation is about how product building is changing with AI. We discuss the one thing Gokul believes is truly future-proof in AI, why companies like Zendesk and Slack are more exposed than Salesforce or NetSuite, and the only sources of defensibility.  We also talk about everything Gokul has learned from helping build the most important ads businesses, including the only three ways an ad business can make money, how those constraints shape product decisions, and what consumer behavior change threatens every major platform. Gokul shares lessons from working closely with Larry and Sergey, Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey, and Tony Xu. Please enjoy my conversation with Gokul Rajaram.

Send us a textHealthcare is entering its most consequential design moment in decades.As AI moves from the background into the core of clinical decision-making, diagnostics, and patient experience, the real question isn't what AI can do—it's whether people can trust it.This week on FUTUREPROOF., I'm joined by Peter Skillman, Global Head of Design at Philips, and one of the few leaders shaping what responsible, human-centered AI looks like in healthcare at scale.Peter has spent three decades designing products and systems at the intersection of hardware, software, and services—across Palm, Nokia, Microsoft, AWS, and now Philips. Today, he's helping reimagine healthcare not as a hierarchy of authority, but as an experience built around patients, clinicians, and trust.We talk about:Why AI in healthcare must be designed with people, not just for themWhat happens when teenagers—future patients and clinicians—help design care systemsHow healthcare design is shifting from “what looks impressive” to “what feels humane”Why speed, clarity, and emotional context now matter as much as clinical accuracyThe long timelines of healthcare innovation—and why today's design choices shape the next decadeWhat it really means to make AI visible, explainable, and trustworthy in life-and-death environmentsThis conversation isn't about futuristic demos or abstract ethics. It's about how design decisions today will determine whether AI improves healthcare—or quietly erodes trust in it.

Dusan shares the remarkable origin story of Tony's Chocolonely, which began nearly twenty years ago with a Dutch journalist's investigation into child labor and exploitation in the cocoa industry, and grew into a global chocolate brand with a singular goal: to make chocolate 100 percent exploitation free. We explore how that founding purpose has been protected through a unique mission-lock governance structure, designed to ensure the company's values survive scale, leadership changes, and even future ownership transitions.The conversation dives deep into Tony's Open Chain, an open-source supply chain platform that now includes more than twenty mission allies, including brands like MrBeast's Feastables, all working collaboratively to transform the cocoa industry from the inside out. Dusan explains how paying a Living Income Reference Price—often more than 80 percent above market rates—creates real economic stability for farmers, and why full traceability from farm to bar is essential for accountability, not marketing.We also unpack the current cocoa crisis, including why prices have recently tripled, what that means for farmers on the ground, and why higher prices alone don't solve systemic exploitation. Along the way, Dusan reflects on his own leadership journey, transitioning from a senior role at Anheuser-Busch InBev to leading a purpose-driven organization that measures success not just by growth, but by impact.Together, we explore what it means to scale with soul—expanding into mass retailers like Walmart and Costco while maintaining premium quality, ethical standards, and radical transparency. This is a grounded and honest conversation about conscious leadership, systems change, and the courage required to challenge “business as usual” in pursuit of a more just and sustainable economy.Please subscribe on Apple Podcasts / Spotify / Stitcher, or wherever you get your podcasts.For transcripts and show notes, please go to: https://www.theconsciouscapitalists.comThis show is presented by Conscious Capitalism, Inc.

Origin Stories and Industry Appreciation: The panelists shared diverse paths into design. Some were drawn in early (Grant and Tom), while others arrived via finance and business consulting (Keith and Louis). Louis Taylor (Finance, SchappacherWhite) noted that, coming from auditing various industries, design is “absolutely the best industry to work in by far.” The 80/20 Rule of Entrepreneurship: A critical takeaway for design professionals is understanding that running a firm is primarily a business function. Keith Granet and Grant Kirkpatrick stressed that the time split is often 70–80% focused on business (HR, finance, marketing, systems) and only 20–30% on actual design work. Keith Granet (Granet and Associates, Leaders of Design) emphasized that good systems and data tracking (like a monthly “executive summary” of financials) are “freeing” and allow for greater creativity by alleviating stress over payroll and rent. Infrastructure and Skill Development: Hire Your Weaknesses: The consensus was to surround yourself with great consultants (finance, PR, marketing) and “hire your weaknesses” to empower the principal designer to focus on their “highest and best use.” Future Talent Gap: Louis Taylor noted that junior staff coming out of school often require significant training in “soft skills” (people skills, professional email etiquette, presentation, listening) to bridge the gap between conceptual learning and the real-world practice. Branding and Storytelling: Effective messaging must be authentic and focus on an idea bigger than the work itself. Grant Kirkpatrick (KAA Design Group) detailed their use of “The Five Whys” to articulate a vision, which for his firm is the belief that “design elevates the human spirit.” Tom Stringer (Tom Stringer Design Partners) built his brand around his personal value of adventure, which attracts clients who are “kindred spirits.” He emphasized that design is predicated on building trust over multiple generations. Future Proofing and Resilience: AI and Technology: The panelists recognized AI as a powerful, unavoidable tool that will alleviate mundane tasks and enhance existing work, though it also presents a significant challenge (“scares the shit out of us,” noted Keith). Firms must embrace it. * **Talent Retention:** **Institutional knowledge** is key to longevity. Firms are focusing on creating exceptional workspaces, competitive benefits (like sabbatical programs), and internal culture to recruit and **retain the best talent.** * **Mentorship:** Mentoring should be a fundamental part of a firm’s **culture**, not a forced, rigid program. It is essential at all career stages, providing wisdom and long-term connections that help owners stay agile and resourceful.

Are you worried about how your tween or teen will navigate an unpredictable future? With AI accelerating, the economy shifting, and the world feeling increasingly fragile, many parents are asking, “How do I prepare my child for what's ahead?” In this New Year's episode of Ask Lisa: The Psychology of Raising Tweens & Teens, Dr. Lisa Damour and Reena Ninan break down what kids actually need to thrive in 2026 and beyond. Drawing on psychology, developmental research, and decades of clinical experience, Lisa shares a powerful new framework to help kids grow into adaptable, ethical, and emotionally steady young adults, no matter what the future holds.

Send us a textGuest: Joe Devon Title: Chair, GAAD Foundation | Co-founder, Global Accessibility Awareness DayAI is reshaping how we design software—but accessibility still too often shows up as an afterthought. In this episode of FUTUREPROOF., Joe Devon joins us to unpack what it actually means to build technology that works for everyone, especially as generative AI becomes embedded across products, platforms, and workflows.Joe explains why accessibility isn't a niche concern—it affects more than 1.3 billion people globally—and why AI represents both the biggest risk and the biggest opportunity the accessibility movement has ever seen. We dig into the early findings from the AI Model Accessibility Checker (AIMAC), what most AI models still get wrong about accessible code, and why “AI will fix it later” is a dangerous assumption.We also explore how front-end tools like AI-generated captions, voice interfaces, and image descriptions are changing daily life for users with disabilities—and where back-end AI systems can finally close the gap between automated testing and real-world usability. Throughout the conversation, Joe makes a compelling case that accessibility is not just a moral imperative, but a design discipline that will separate future-proof products from legacy ones.Topics covered:Why most digital products still fail basic accessibility standardsHow AI can dramatically expand—or quietly restrict—accessWhat AIMAC reveals about how accessible today's AI models really areFront-end vs. back-end accessibility breakthroughsThe ethical stakes of deploying inaccessible AI at scaleWhy inclusive design must be a core requirement, not a patch

Individuals can invest as little as $25 into no-interest loans that fund solar installations—and are repaid monthly over five years, allowing capital to be recycled again and again.Lassor explains why:A dollar invested in Global South solar can deliver up to 5x the carbon impact of a comparable U.S. projectTraditional climate fintech and ESG models break down in frontier marketsRepayment isn't just financial—it's proof of impactDesign, not just technology, determines whether climate solutions scaleThis conversation goes beyond solar panels to explore systems, incentives, trust, and the future of climate finance—and why everyday individuals may be better positioned than institutions to fund the energy transition where it matters most.If climate change is a race against time, this episode asks a harder question: are we deploying capital where it actually counts?

Dr. Michael Housman is the founder and CEO of AI-ccelerator and the author of Future Proof: Transform Your Business with AI or Get Left Behind, where he helps organizations harness artificial intelligence to make better, faster, and less biased decisions. With a PhD in Applied Economics and Managerial Science from Wharton and an A.B. from Harvard, he has spent over 15 years architecting AI platforms across hiring, fraud detection, customer communications, and real estate lending—all while translating complex AI concepts into practical playbooks for business leaders. His work has been featured in major outlets like The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Economist, and The Atlantic, making him a rare blend of deep technical expertise and real-world business impact.​ On this episode we talk about: Why traditional hiring processes are riddled with bias, how data-driven models outperform “gut feel,” and surprising predictors of performance like browser choice and employment history patterns.​ How business owners can start using AI today to buy back time, automate repetitive work, personalize outreach at scale, and treat AI as a strategic thought partner instead of just a better search box.​ The core ideas behind Future Proof—why most AI content is too technical, how Michael translates it for non-technical leaders, and why ignoring AI now is like refusing to build a website or adopt social media 10–15 years ago.​​ How AI-ccelerator uses live keynotes and hands-on workshops to help teams build real outputs—like pitch decks and go-to-market plans—in 90 minutes instead of weeks.​ Where AI is headed next, how it will disrupt agencies and creative work, and why founders should imagine how a brand-new “AI-native” competitor would rebuild their business model from scratch.​ Top 3 Takeaways AI isn't just a tool for writing emails or posts; used correctly, it becomes a data-driven board member that helps you make sharper strategic decisions and challenge your own thinking.​ Companies that delay AI adoption risk being blindsided by AI-native competitors who use automation, synthetic data, and smarter decision systems to deliver better results at lower cost.​ The biggest barrier is not the technology but people—getting teams to experiment, build literacy, and embed AI into workflows so it actually drives revenue and efficiency.​ Notable Quotes “Algorithms, when designed correctly, don't care where you went to school or who you play squash with—they care whether you're actually the right fit for the job.”​ “Most leaders are using AI like a fancy spell-checker for emails when they should be treating it like a strategic thought partner sitting at the boardroom table.”​ “If you were starting your business from scratch today as an AI-native company, you'd design it completely differently—and that imaginary competitor is exactly who's coming for your lunch.”​ Connect with Dr. Michael Housman: Website: https://michaelhousman.com​ AI-ccelerator (consulting & education): https://ai-ccelerator.com​ ✖️✖️✖️✖️

In this episode, Paul sits down with estate planning attorney Derek Wayne Jensen to demystify what estate planning really involves and why it's far more than drafting a simple will. Derek explains how planning evolves over a lifetime, beginning with young adults choosing beneficiaries, through major life milestones, to complex multi-generational legacy planning. They explore the biggest misconceptions, including the belief that estate planning is "one and done," and discuss why outdated beneficiary designations routinely undermine even the best plans. Derek also highlights triggers that should prompt a review: health scares, major purchases, business exits, new children or grandchildren, and significant increases in wealth. The conversation ends with practical guidance for high earners, business owners, and anyone whose documents are more than five years old. -- About Derek: Derek W. Jensen, JD, LLM, is a tax attorney and the founder of the North Seattle law firm, Jensen Estate Law, to assist individuals and their families with complex issues surrounding federal income tax, state and federal estate tax, estate law, business law, elder law and asset protection. Derek is a trusted advisor, with over 25 years of experience helping clients achieve their estate and tax planning goals.

Creating Career Safety: Future-Proof Your Career & Leadership skills The old rulebook said: work hard, deliver results, stay loyal, and your career will be safe. But that rulebook? It's obsolete. Today, even the best leaders are getting blindsided by layoffs, burnout, and change they didn't see coming. Target, Amazon, Meta, consulting firms—massive waves of restructuring are reshaping how organizations operate. The question isn't "How do I keep my job?" anymore.

In this episode, Blake reveals why the traditional model of job security no longer works and introduces the five essential skills that will define the next decade of leadership. You'll discover how to build real career safety in a world where certainty no longer exists, not by working harder, but by learning to optimize your energy, align with how you're wired, and navigate change with confidence. If you're a high-achieving leader feeling the weight of uncertainty, this episode will help you move from survival mode to strategic leadership.   Episode Highlights   The New Reality of Work [00:45] - Why the old career safety model is obsolete [01:15] - What's happening across corporate America [02:30] - The most significant transition in the history of work   Building Career Safety from the Inside Out [03:45] - What career safety really means  [04:20] - The three foundations of career safety [05:10] - Why you can't future-proof your career from survival mode [06:15] The Torchlight Framework: 5 Skills to Master   Playing Offense, Not Defense [10:00] - Skating to where the puck is going  [10:45] - Moving from protection to creation   Powerful Quotes "When you're aligned with how you're wired to work best, stress becomes fuel.

Send us a textAs AI reshapes the world faster than most of us can process, we're left with an uncomfortable question: What does it really mean to be human now?This week on FUTUREPROOF., Jeremy sits down with Jeff Burningham — tech entrepreneur, investor, and author of The Last Book Written by a Human — to explore how we can cultivate wisdom, purpose, and empathy in an age obsessed with speed, scale, and artificial intelligence.Jeff's story is as surprising as it is inspiring: from Mormon missionary to real estate mogul, from political candidate to spiritual seeker. After years of building billion-dollar companies, he found himself confronting a deeper question — not how to make more, but how to matter more.In this episode, Jeff and Jeremy discuss: Why becoming wiser, not just smarter, is the next competitive advantage How technology mirrors our consciousness — including our biases and blind spots Why the future of leadership depends on emotional and moral intelligence What it means to design an economy — and a life — centered on meaning, not metrics And how AI's reflection of us can become humanity's greatest teacherWhether you're a founder navigating AI disruption or a curious human trying to stay grounded in a digital age, this conversation will remind you that wisdom — not code — may be the ultimate frontier.

In a world where everything feels uncertain, is it actually possible to future-proof your relationship? In today's episode, we're diving into one of the biggest dating trends of 2025: the rise of future-proofing. With people becoming more intentional about who they commit to, long-term compatibility is suddenly more attractive than fleeting chemistry — and psychologists are backing it. In fact, a recent Forbes article calls future-proofing “the healthiest dating trend of 2025,” but is it realistic? We're unpacking why trying to predict the future with a partner isn't foolproof. In this episode, we break down what future-proofing really means, why it's trending, where it goes wrong, and how conscious dating (not perfection-hunting) is still the most powerful way to build a fulfilling relationship.Got a dating question you need answered?

Live from Future Proof, I sat down with Jason Early, Founder and CEO of RISR — an AI platform that's helping financial advisors rethink how they serve business-owner clients.Here's the truth: for most entrepreneurs, their business is their biggest asset — but most advisors just ask, “What's it worth?” jot down a guess, and move on. Jason and his team built RISR around a simple belief: business owners deserve better advice, and the advisors who serve them need better tools to give it.RISR connects directly to a company's financials, uses AI to generate real-time valuations, and gives advisors the insights they need to guide clients through growth, succession, and exit planning. It helps advisors have the right conversations — earlier — so they're there long before the liquidity event, not chasing it after the fact.In this conversation, Jason shares how top advisors are using RISR to win business-owner clients, deepen relationships, and deliver the kind of advice that builds lasting trust.3 of the biggest insights from Jason Early…#1.) How Top Advisors Are Using RISR to Stand OutAdvisors aren't just running valuations, they're using RISR to open doors, deepen trust, and win business-owner clients long before a liquidity event. By showing up with real data on what the client's business is worth, advisors shift the conversation from “asset management” to “business strategy.” It's helping them justify planning fees, spark succession discussions, and position themselves as the quarterback for every major decision that impacts the owner's wealth and legacy.#2.) The Truth About Business Valuation (and Why It's Usually Wrong)Most business owners miscalculate what their company is worth — often by millions. Jason breaks down why, from owner dependency and client concentration to “country club math” and non-normalized EBITDA. He also explains how objective valuation data brings alignment between partners and families, turning tough money talks into clarity.#3.) What Every Advisor Should Know About Succession & Exit PlanningBusiness owners rarely plan their exits well. Jason explains how advisors can use valuation insights to build readiness conversations, prevent conflict between partners, and even influence deal outcomes. These are high-trust, high-value planning opportunities that position advisors as long-term strategic partners — not just investment managers.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/142FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: 30 minute 1:1 coaching call with BradAre you a financial advisor who feels stuck, needs help, or simply wants to have a conversation with Brad?
