Elena Verna is the head of growth at Lovable, the leading AI-powered app builder that hit $200 million in annual recurring revenue in under a year with just 100 employees. In this record fourth appearance on the podcast, Elena shares how the traditional growth playbook has been completely rewritten for AI companies. She explains why Lovable focuses on innovation over optimization, how they've shifted from activation to building new features, and why giving away their product for free has become their most powerful growth strategy.We discuss:1. Why 60% to 70% of traditional growth tactics no longer apply in AI2. Why you have to re-find product-market fit every 3 months3. The specific growth tactics driving Lovable's unprecedented growth4. Why giving away product is a growth strategy that beats paid ads5. “Minimum lovable product” as the new standard (not minimum viable product)6. Why activation now belongs to product teams, not growth teams7.

Most of flower farming doesn't look like the photos—and that's exactly what this conversation is about. In this episode, I sit down with Lyndsay Biehl-Mercer of Wildroot Flower Co. and Shannon Allen of Bloom Hill Farm to talk about the real side of building a flower business: grit, focus, fear, finances, burnout, and learning as you go. We talk about why there's pressure to make everything look beautiful, how easy it is to work yourself into the ground, and why getting good at one thing early matters. We also dig into practical habits—tracking numbers, using simple tools, and making informed decisions—along with the bigger question many growers face: Is this work life-giving, or is it taking something from me? This is an honest, grounded conversation for anyone navigating flower farming in real time—and a reminder that with all the resources available today, none of us need to be doing this alone.

We are accustomed to the idea of growth. We love it when the wind is at our back and progress is effortless. We have experienced a lifetime of growth. If a growing market is an underlying assumption, then most people are unaware that they are operating with the assumption of growth. Growth becomes a law of nature, a little like gravity. What would change in your strategy if you needed to win in a shrinking market? Canada experienced the first major drop in population this past quarter. Outside of a slight drop during the height of the pandemic, this quarter is the first time that Canada's population has declined in at least the past eight decades. The trend is not limited to Canada. The US administration has set much more stringent immigration policies over the past year. The policies continue to evolve with citizens from a total of 39 countries now barred from entering the US, even as visitors. This is largely a reaction to the near open-doors policy of the previous administration. The US and Canada are not a strangers to shrinking population. Internal migration has caused population to shrink. The gains in the sunbelt have been at the expense of loss in the rust belt. Detroit has lost more than 50% of its population since the 1970's. Cleveland has lost 60% of its population since the 1950's. Immigration is the pathway to maintaining population and to maintaining economic growth. I'm hopeful that these reductions are a short term reaction to periods of excessive growth and that both countries the US and Canada return to a more normalized immigration policy that recognizes the significant necessity and long term benefit that comes from a functioning immigration policy. -----------Real Estate Espresso Podcast: Spotify: The Real Estate Espresso Podcast Website: www.victorjm.com LinkedIn: Victor Menasce YouTube: The Real Estate Espresso Podcast Facebook: www.facebook.com/realestateespresso Email: podcast@victorjm.comY Street Capital: Website: www.ystreetcapital.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital Instagram: @ystreetcapital
Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge why so many people work hard yet fail to see real progress in self-improvement. Discipline is not the problem. Consistency is not the problem. The real issue shows up in how decisions are made when no one is watching.This episode cuts through surface-level personal development and focuses on the thinking patterns that quietly determine long-term outcomes. If you care about making better decisions, building consistency that lasts, and growing with intention instead of urgency, this conversation will sharpen how you approach self-improvement.Listen closely.

Growth often looks like adding more products, more offers, and more activity. In reality, it is usually the opposite that creates profit.

Together, they explore how redefining success beyond constant striving can open up far more possibilities than rigid goal-setting ever could, especially when you learn to receive instead of always hunt.

The Philadelphia Eagles have had an up and down season. Fans have seen some very good football. Fans have seen some bad football. But the fact is that they're atop of the NFC East and likely heading to the playoffs. How has this team shown growth over this season? This week, O.J. Spivey from The Philadelphia Tribune joined the pod for an in-depth discussion about what we've seen from this Eagles team and where they may be going in the foreseeable future. A great discussion!But first, the guys dove into some of the good hockey that's being played by the Flyers this season as the team is currently at the No. 4 spot in the Metropolitan Division. (Approx. 6:00)From there, they got into a discussion about how this Union offseason is looking, which isn't great. With the Union giving up two key pieces and talents to other MLS teams, what is the strategy here? (Approx. 12:10)Then they talked about what has been happening in the world of college football with the Lane Kiffin situation, Notre Dame refusing a bowl appearance, and intriguing aspects of the College Football Playoff. (Approx. 21:30)The guys they dove into some NFL talk as certain teams have been eliminated from making it to the playoffs. We're saying goodbye this season to some teams that are surprising. (Approx. 34:00)What they threw down on the Table this week was a great and in-depth conversation with O.J. Spivey from The Philadelphia Tribute about what we've seen from his Eagles team this season, how they've grown, and who needs to step up towards the latter part of this regular season. They discussed the criticism of Jalen Hurts, and who may be an under-the-radar player on this team for us to keep our eyes on over these next few games.

Are your top performers actually holding back your organization's growth? Today on Leveraging Thought Leadership, Peter Winick talks with Eduardo Briceño, global keynote speaker, CEO of Growth.How, and author of "The Performance Paradox". Eduardo is one of the leading voices on growth mindset in organizations, building on 16+ years of work with Carol Dweck as co-founder of Mindset Works and two TEDx talks that have each passed 4 million views. Together, they unpack how leaders and companies can move beyond one-off inspiration and build true learning cultures that deliver sustained performance. Eduardo explains his core framework: the Learning Zone and the Performance Zone. Most organizations live almost entirely in performance mode—chasing metrics, staying "on," and delivering results. He shows why that approach quietly caps growth, and how deliberately creating Learning Zone time is the unlock for innovation, resilience, and long-term excellence. You'll hear how he designs keynotes and workshops like a master teacher, not a showman. Eduardo starts with clear learning objectives, then engineers experiences that shift how leaders think, behave, and make decisions. It's not about delivering a great "show"; it's about making sure people leave seeing their work differently and ready to act. Eduardo and Peter also explore what it really takes to build a growth-mindset culture at scale. They talk about partnering with organizations over time, embedding the ideas from The Performance Paradox into leadership programs, talent systems, and everyday language. Eduardo shares why well-intentioned "growth" initiatives often backfire—and how to avoid the hidden traps that send mixed signals to your people. Finally, they look at impact. Eduardo discusses how he went from frameworks to a major Penguin Random House book, how he gathered more than 100 real-world stories to bring his ideas to life, and why he's now focused on working longitudinally with clients instead of just doing single events. For CEOs and senior leaders, this conversation is a playbook for turning your organization into a place where people are both learning faster and performing better. Three Key Takeaways: • Always-on performance quietly caps growth; organizations need deliberate time and space for the Learning Zone, not just the Performance Zone. • "Growth mindset" only works when it's operationalized—through concrete systems, habits, and experiences that teach people how to learn and improve, not just that they can. • The biggest impact comes from embedding these ideas into leadership programs, talent systems, and culture over time—not from one-off keynotes or events. If this episode reshaped how you think about performance and the Learning Zone, your next stop should be our conversation with Phil Geldart on Unlocking Human Potential. Both episodes tackle the same core challenge—how to move beyond "always on" performance and build a culture where learning, experimentation, and behavior change are baked into the way work gets done. Eduardo gives you the strategic lens and language (Learning vs. Performance Zone, growth mindset in action); Phil dives into how to design experiential learning that actually sticks and changes what people do on Monday morning. Listen to both and you'll walk away with a playbook that connects big ideas about learning culture to concrete tools for driving performance across your organization.

David McIntosh, attorney, former U.S. Congressman (IA-2), co-founder of the Federalist Society, and President of the Club for Growth, joins the discussion on what's behind America's affordability challenges. McIntosh highlights how Club for Growth economists and leaders have been calling on Republicans to focus on kitchen-table economic issues like cost of living and affordability heading into the 2026 election cycle, noting that voters consistently weigh economic concerns above all else and want real, pro-growth solutions. Drawing on his long record advocating limited government, lower taxes, regulatory relief, and free-market reforms, he explains how high prices for housing, healthcare, energy, and essentials have squeezed families, and why policy matters when it comes to wages, prices, and overall economic freedom

NBA champion Lamar Odom joins the show to reflect on his life story — from growing up in South Jamaica, Queens and becoming a top NBA draft pick, to winning championships with Kobe Bryant on the Lakers, navigating fame, addiction, and the pressures that came with his rise. Lamar opens up about the challenges he faced during the height of his career, his marriage to Khloé Kardashian, the 2015 incident in Nevada that nearly cost him his life, the strokes and medical aftermath he fought through, and how an ibogaine treatment helped him rebuild and reconnect with himself. We discuss childhood trauma, the start of addiction, the intensity of NBA life, loss, recovery, rebuilding relationships, and what he hopes others can take from his journey. This episode highlights Lamar's rise, fall, and comeback — a story of resilience, survival, and growth that continues to inspire people around the world. __________________________________________________________________________ #LamarOdom #NBAStories #LakersNation #KobeBryantEra #AddictionRecovery #RedemptionStory #CelebrityInterview #lockedinpodcast __________________________________________________________________________ Connect with Lamar Odom: https://www.instagram.com/lamarodom/ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop __________________________________________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Lamar Odom on Health, Fame & Surviving Rock Bottom 00:54 Growing Up Without a Father: Childhood, Family & Adversity 03:54 Fatherless Upbringing and the Impact on Identity 05:56 Basketball as an Escape and Early Passion for Sports 08:50 High School Years: Shyness, Loss & NBA Dreams 13:13 College Basketball, Pressure & Early Exposure 17:45 Growing Up in Queens: Friends, Streets & Staying Focused 18:49 NBA Draft Night, LA Clippers & Rookie Year Reality 23:19 Early NBA Money Mistakes & Adjusting to Life in Los Angeles 27:07 Miami to Lakers: Playing Alongside Kobe Bryant 30:01 NBA Championships, Sacrifice & Life Off the Court 32:36 Addiction, Family Tragedy & Coping with Pain 36:16 Marriage to Khloé Kardashian & Reality TV Fame 41:52 The End of the NBA Career & Personal Regrets 44:00 First Use & the Beginning of Addiction 47:00 Rehab, Recovery Attempts & Ibogaine Therapy 50:00 The Vegas Incident, Overdose & Fighting to Survive 56:00 Recovery, Public Scrutiny & Second Chances 01:00:01 Life After Kardashian & Rebuilding After 2015 01:03:43 Lessons Learned, Motivation & Helping Others 01:06:03 Fatherhood, Growth & Lamar Odom's Final Reflections Learn more about your ad choices.

Do Business. Do Life. — The Financial Advisor Podcast — DBDL
Every advisor is looking back at the year — what worked, what didn't, and what's worth carrying into 2026. So I pulled the analytics, reviewed the conversations, and rounded up the five moments that advisors like you rewatched the most.Each clip reveals something different: how to build real structure inside your firm, how to scale yourself out of the bottleneck, how to create a compelling workshop experience, how to master your message, and how elite performers think about growth.If you want a quick way to reset your focus, sharpen how you lead, and build more freedom into your business next year, this episode will give you the clearest lessons from across the show in 2025. These are the ideas advisors trusted the most — and they can help you tighten your model, strengthen your team, and build a business that runs without burning you out.3 of the biggest insights from the episode…1.) Structure Is a Growth Multiplier, Not a Corporate ExerciseYour business can only scale as quickly as your structure allows. Ladders, levels, delegated authority, and consistent titles aren't bureaucracy — they're clarity. And clarity is what frees a founder from becoming the bottleneck.2.) You Can Duplicate Yourself Faster Than You ThinkWhether it's sales or marketing, the advisors who scale the fastest stop relying on personality and start relying on process. When you systematize your approach, you unlock the ability to build a team that produces without you.3.) Mastery Comes from Focus, Not Doing MoreJordan. Kobe. Elite advisors. The common thread? They ignore the noise and obsess over the few skills that drive 80–90% of results. Growth isn't adding more, it's deleting what no longer serves the next level.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/147FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALXInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.

Growth gets real when effort meets reality. In today's episode, Kevin and Alan strip away a comfortable idea in self-improvement that sounds right but quietly caps results. Consistency matters. Personal development matters. But progress stalls when discipline disconnects from real-world decision-making.This is a grounded conversation about long-term growth, identity, and what actually drives performance over time. No hype. No shortcuts. Just a clear look at how serious self-improvement works when pressure, competition, and standards are real. If you care about building consistency that lasts and making decisions that compound, this episode will sharpen how you think. Listen closely. This one separates intention from execution._______________________Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

What sorrow awaits rebellious, polluted Jerusalem, the city of violence and crime! No one can tell it anything; it refuses all correction. It does not trust in the Lord or draw near to its God. Its leaders are like roaring lions hunting for their victims. Its judges are like ravenous wolves at evening time, who by dawn have left no trace of their prey. Its prophets are arrogant liars seeking their own gain. Its priests defile the Temple by disobeying God's instructions. But the Lord is still there in the city, and he does no wrong. Day by day he hands down justice, and he does not fail. - Zephaniah 3:1-5The book of Zephaniah, while being another in the line of prophets sharing God's message of judgment and repentance, deserves more time and attention than what we tend to give it. Only three chapters long, God's message through Zephaniah is a direct yet beautiful encapsulation of the themes we've seen so often in the prophets. It's a book about humility and unity. It's a book about repentance and turning hearts towards God. It's a book about God's judgment against oppressors, poor leaders, and idolatry. It's a book about the coming of the Lord and the God who not only saves, but will live among his people. To help us navigate the book of Zephaniah is Taylor Turkington, director of BibleEquipping, author of the book Trembling Faith on Habakkuk and has a commentary on Zephaniah being released next year.

What if the most explosive moments in the early church didn't happen on a platform—but around a table?In Acts 6, the apostles appoint leaders to oversee food distribution for widows—an assignment that looks ordinary, even menial. But what follows is anything but small. This episode explores a three-stage Kingdom reversal where serving tables reshapes priorities, launches Spirit-filled leaders, and dismantles the very power structures the enemy relies on.From Stephen's miracles to Philip's missionary breakthrough, Scripture reveals that humble service is not a detour from purpose—it's often the doorway to it. When God's people pick up towels instead of titles, the Kingdom advances and thrones begin to fall.Serving tables doesn't diminish impact.It turns the tables on everything we thought mattered.
