In this episode, Devin Reed, one of the leading voices in content and marketing, opens up about the defining moments that shaped his career—from growing up between two very different cultures in Sacramento to building a name for himself at Eventbrite, Gong, and Clari before stepping out on his own. He shares candid stories of career pivots, from giving up on his dream of teaching to unexpectedly landing in tech sales, and later realizing his sweet spot in content marketing. Devin reflects on the sting of being graded a “seven” at a company that recruited him aggressively, the intimidation of being told he wasn't qualified for his role at just 25, and the burnout he faced after tying too much of his worth to productivity.Now as a founder, creator, and dad, he talks about learning to measure success not in metrics but in moments—balancing ambition with presence, and re-wiring what it means to “win” in both business and life.In this conversation, you'll learn:- Why it's essential to question feedback and define your own worth- How to recognize poor leadership and build a healthier leadership style- What it takes to reset old wiring around ambition and successThings to listen for:(00:00) Intro(01:59) Devin's upbringing and early career(02:47) Transition to marketing and entrepreneurship(03:01) Facing challenges and finding success(06:33) Pivotal career moments(08:08) Thank you to our sponsor, Navattic(11:33) Navigating tough feedback(17:17) The impact of therapy and self-worth(21:28) Dealing with imposter syndrome(26:46) Realizing the importance of empathy in leadership(28:40) Learning from coaches and mentors(34:48) Balancing work and personal life(38:50) Implementing new habits and boundaries(46:20) Setting goals for fulfillment and happiness(49:25) Caution in advice and embracing relatabilityA huge thanks to this episode's sponsor:Navattic: Interactive Product Demo Software - https://navattic.com/value Resources:Connect with Devin:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/devinreed/The Reeder (official website): https://www.thereeder.coReed Between The Lines (podcast): https://www.thereeder.co/content-hub/podcastConnect with Andrew:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewcapland/ Substack: https://media.deliveringvalue.coHire Andrew as your coach: https://deliveringvalue.co/coachingJoin Growth OS: https://deliveringvalue.co/growth-operating-system

Grandpa Bill talks about Qi Gong-Hello and thank you for tuning into "Workouts for Geriatrics, AKA, Silver Streakers, Good for All Kids from 1-92!" I'm your host, Grandpa Bill, and today on the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast, we're diving into a practice that's as ancient as it is effective for a long and healthy life: Qi Gong.Now, you might have heard of Tai Chi, but Qi Gong is its close cousin, and in many ways, its parent. The name itself is a clue: "Qi" (pronounced "chee") is the life force or energy that flows through our bodies, and "Gong" means cultivation or work. So, Qi Gong is the art of cultivating and working with our life energy.An Overview of Qi GongSo, what exactly does a Qi Gong session look like? Well, it's not about breaking a sweat or lifting heavy weights. It's about slow, mindful movements, coordinated with deep, diaphragmatic breathing. Think of it as a moving meditation.The core principles are:Gentle Movement: The movements are soft, fluid, and circular. We're not pushing our bodies to their limits; we're coaxing them into a state of balance.Mindfulness: The mind is focused on the body, on the breath, and on the feeling of Qi flowing. This helps to calm the nervous system and reduce stress.Deep Breathing: We breathe from the belly, not the chest. This helps to oxygenate the blood, calm the mind, and energize the body.Example: The Wall ExerciseNow, for a simple and effective Qi Gong exercise you can do right now, I'm going to teach you "The Wall Exercise." All you need is a wall.Find your spot: Stand with your back against a wall, about a foot away.Slide down: Slowly slide your back down the wall until your knees are bent at a 90-degree angle, as if you're sitting in an invisible chair. Make sure your back is flat against the wall.Breathe deeply: As you hold this position, breathe deeply and slowly. Feel the strength in your legs, but also the calm in your mind.Rise up: After a few breaths, slowly and gently push yourself back up the wall to a standing position.Repeat: Do this a few times, increasing the hold time as you feel more comfortable.This exercise is fantastic for building leg strength, improving balance, and calming the mind. It's safe, effective, and can be done by anyone, no matter their age or fitness level.Why Qi Gong is a perfect workout for "Silver Streakers"Joint-friendly: The slow, gentle movements are easy on the joints, making it a great alternative to high-impact exercises.Improves balance: Many Qi Gong exercises focus on balance, which is crucial for preventing falls as we age.Reduces stress: The combination of mindful movement and deep breathing is a powerful stress-reliever.Increases energy: By cultivating Qi, we can increase our vitality and energy levels, helping us to feel younger and more vibrant.So, whether you're 19 or 92, Qi Gong has something to offer. It's a journey into your own inner energy, a way to connect with your body and mind, and a path to a healthier, more balanced life.#QiGong,#GeriatricFitness,#GrandpaBill,#SilverStreakers,#WorkoutsForGeriatrics,#HolisticHealing,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#MindfulMovement,#Longevity,#AncientWisdom,

In this episode of OnBase, host Chris Moody sits down with Phil Hernandez and Tina Katic-Michalos to explore how organizations can rethink their go-to-market strategies in the era of AI.

This is a moment to reflect on Jesus Christ's atonement, as Elder Gerrit W. Gong explains how our Lord fell and arose to feel all our pains.

Jesus Christ atones. He redeems. He restores not only what was, but what can be. Gerrit W. Gong, a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, delivered this BYU Education Week address on August 19, 2025. You can access the full talk here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Conference Talk Podcast, hosts Matthew Watkins and Tommy May dive into Elder Gerrit W. Gong's address from the most recent general conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, titled Eternity's Great Gifts: Jesus Christ, Atonement, Resurrection, Restoration. The hosts explore key themes from the talk, share personal insights, and inject their signature humor while emphasizing the importance of studying general conference messages regularly.Conferencetalk.orghttps://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2025/04/45gong?lang=eng

On this episode, Marc talks with Ian Thompson, author of "Synths, Sax, & Situationists: The French Musical Underground 1968-1978," published in August of 2025. It's a detailed history of a group of French rock bands who, inspired by the protests and civil unrest of May 1968 as well as psych rock and free jazz, broke with convention to create some of the most original music of the 70s. The best known of these groups were Gong, Magma, and Heldon, all of which Thompson covers in depth, but he also delves into bands who haven't gotten their due such as Lard Free and Moving Gelatin Plates, and ones who barely existed yet made a mark, such as Barricade and Cheval Fou. As Ian writes, "It slowly dawned on me that if other anglophones were to discover this essential music they would need a reference - in English. And so, for the last five years I've digested everything I could find on the topic and interviewed almost fifty musicians from the scene. Now, at long last, the result of my efforts rests in your hands."You can buy "Synths, Sax, & Situationists" here.We hope you enjoy Marc's conversation with Ian Thompson!

Google built their trillion-dollar empire on keywords, but text is just a thin layer of abstraction that only ostensibly represents the real world. Video is a much different story! With video, modern algorithms from Gong, Otter, Read and other tools can ascertain a whole host of valuable dimensions: confidence of voice, engagement level, thoughtfulness of questions, clarity of answers. In other words, video is killing the SEO star! Once the mainstay of Internet marketing, Search Engine Optimization is now cratering, especially as ChatGPT and other LLMs provide whole answers to prompts, instead of serving up links. That model is crushing traditional SEO tactics, causing Web traffic on countless sites to plummet. The answer is Generative Engine Optimization (GE), and we've cracked the code on how to do that! Register for this very special episode of DM Radio to hear Host @eric_kavanagh demonstrate how a marketing initiative for the designer of Israel's Iron Dome revealed the most sought-after secret in the modern business world! He'll offer explicit advice on how you can get your technology noticed by the engines that are taking over the Internet!

In this episode of Coach to Scale, we sit down with Sriharsha "Sai" Guduguntla, co-founder of Hyperbound, to unpack one of the most pressing challenges in revenue leadership: the coaching crisis. Despite billions invested in enablement tools, most frontline managers still spend less than 5% of their time actually coaching, and it's costing teams deals, confidence, and retention. Sai shares how Hyperbound is redefining sales practice by enabling reps to roleplay high-stakes calls, objections, and negotiations using AI before they ever speak to a real prospect.Sai and host Matt Benelli explore why traditional training doesn't stick, how to coach the iPhone generation, and why AI-driven feedback is the key to scalable performance improvement. From building reps' confidence to reducing CAC, shortening ramp time, and even coaching managers themselves, this conversation delivers practical insight for CROs and GTM leaders committed to leveling up their teams. If you think having Gong means you're coaching, think again.Key Takeaways1. Coaching is broken, and leaders know it.Most frontline managers spend less than 5% of their time coaching, and even if they admit it's not enough, despite having tools like Gong or Chorus.2. Owning tools doesn't mean using them.Just because you've bought sales tech doesn't mean your team is getting value from it; usage and enablement are two different things.3. Reps are practicing on real prospects, and that's a problem.Without structured practice environments, reps learn in live selling situations, losing deals and confidence in the process.4. AI enables real, scalable practice.Hyperbound uses AI to let reps roleplay discovery, objections, and negotiations with instant feedback, so they improve before going live.5. Training decay is real 87% is forgotten in a month.Sai shares how Hyperbound clients are replacing costly SKOs and one-off trainings with ongoing practice that reinforces key skills year-round.6. Feedback should be immediate, not delayed.Instead of waiting weeks for one-on-one feedback, reps using AI tools can instantly iterate and refine their performance after each session.7. AI coaching is objective and data-backed.AI removes bias by evaluating reps consistently, benchmarking them against top performers, and identifying real improvement areas.8. Confidence is often the root blocker to performance.A lack of confidence, not skill, is what holds many reps back from picking up the phone; Hyperbound helps reps build that confidence safely.9. Managers need coaching too.Hyperbound doesn't just coach reps, it also trains managers by simulating coaching conversations and giving feedback on their effectiveness.10. Culture matters more than tools.Without leadership buy-in and a true coaching culture, even the best tools won't lead to behavior change; some orgs just aren't ready.

I'm launching another season of Reed Between the Lines by hitting the road to find out what it really means to bet on yourself. After spending years leading content at Gong and Clari, and growing my side hustle into a six-figure business, I realized the best moments in my career all had one thing in common: They felt risky as hell, but I went all-in anyway. Season 3 starts in Las Vegas, because this one's about taking creative risks and making bold bets.I'm not here for surface-level advice. I want the real stuff. The stories people usually don't talk about. The moments they almost didn't go for it. What worked, what didn't, and why they'd do it again. Each episode brings you unfiltered conversations with people who took a chance on themselves, broke the rules, and built something meaningful.If you're the kind of person who's building something of your own and willing to take a few risks to get where you want to go, I made this show for you.⬛ Get started with Goldcast: https://bit.ly/42bgdJo⬛ Follow Devin on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/devinreed/More from The Reeder:

Learn how to scale beyond seven figures using podcast-driven growth Everyone's chasing the latest marketing tricks while I've been watching smart business owners quietly use one simple strategy to close huge deals. In this episode, I sit down with Tom Hunt to share the truth about B2B podcasting that most people get wrong. We talk about how his 11th podcast guest became a $2M client before the episode even went live, why 97% of your prospects aren't ready to buy right now, and the 7-hour rule that can cut your sales time in half. This isn't about making content - it's about making money. Tom Hunt runs Fame, the B2B podcast company that helps businesses like Gong, Canva, Paddle, and Zendesk grow behind the scenes. He found this secret while working in marketing and turned it into a simple system that turns every podcast recording into a sales meeting. What I love about Tom is he doesn't just talk about making money from podcasts - he shows you exactly how to turn your show into a machine that brings in clients. KEY TAKEAWAYS: The real money in B2B podcasting comes from your guests becoming customers, not from building a huge audience of listeners. You can get ROI from podcasting in the short term by inviting potential customers and partners as guests on your show. 97% of your market isn't ready to buy right now, so you need a strategy to capture them when they are ready to purchase. Consumption drives conversion - prospects who consume 7+ hours of your content are much more likely to buy from you. One podcast episode can create weeks of content across social media, email, and other marketing channels. B2B podcasting is the hardest content to grow but the most valuable because you get 30-60 minutes of someone's undivided attention. Before you focus on getting more leads, fix your customer retention first because keeping clients is the foundation of growth. The best podcast positioning combines a clear niche (who you serve) with a unique edge (what makes you different from everyone else). Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be. In this podcast, we will be discussing top level strategies for both growing and expanding your business beyond seven figures. The show will feature a mix of pure content and expert interviews to present key concepts and fundamental topics in a variety of different formats. We believe that this format will enable our listeners to learn the most from the show, implement more in their businesses, and get real value out of the podcast. Enjoy the show.

Ace-J is back and he's got raps… correction: snack wraps. The boys try Popeyes' new-ish chicken wraps to get a gauge on the impending wrap war. The results might surprise you but Iceman's response to ‘heat' certainly will not. When things cool down, Iceman shares his plans for a late summer flurry of activity that'll surely up his frequent flyer mileage. The guys make plans for a FANTASTIC date. Travis Scott ruins everything, but Danny Skip does not. Have a listen between binging Black Sabbath records (RIP OZZY).
