In today's episode of the Second in Command podcast, Cameron explores a pivotal leadership decision that can transform the way businesses operate, grow, and scale. Every visionary leader reaches a point where their plate is too full, their time too stretched, and their focus divided. But the key to overcoming this challenge isn't just about delegation—it's about finding the right person to step in and elevate the entire organization. You'll discover a powerful framework that helps leaders assess their strengths, pinpoint their most valuable contributions, and identify the gaps that need to be filled to create a thriving, well-balanced team. However, bringing in the right support isn't as simple as hiring another executive. It requires deep self-awareness, a clear understanding of what drives energy and productivity, and a willingness to relinquish control in areas that may not align with a leader's true strengths. Cameron reveals a proven system for breaking down tasks, uncovering unique abilities, and strategically redistributing responsibilities to unlock greater efficiency and momentum.This episode shows why having a trusted partner in the business—someone who balances vision with execution and provides both challenge and support—can be a game-changer.If you've enjoyed this episode of the Second in Command podcast, be sure to leave a review and subscribe today!In This Episode You'll Learn:The importance of self-reflection for CEOs to understand their skills and needs before hiring a COO.

Today's Headlines: Trump called his talk with Zelensky about the Ukraine ceasefire “very good,” as U.S. and Russian officials prepare to meet in Riyadh. Meanwhile, his administration is considering giving up the U.S. military's top NATO command role, held by an American general since WWII, while the Pentagon plans to cut 60,000 civilian jobs, many held by veterans. The Fed held interest rates steady but signaled two cuts later this year, citing slower growth and inflation driven by tariffs. The DOGE-led takeover of the U.S. Institute of Peace is now facing legal challenges. In the courts, a judge ordered Trump officials to prove they followed a deportation ban, another blocked the administration's transgender military ban, and a third halted the EPA's attempt to cancel $20 billion in climate grants. And finally, 63,000 newly declassified pages on JFK's assassination just dropped—happy sleuthing!

Mindset Matters Part 2: Dan Porterfield - Growth in Action: Markera Jones and the Transformative Power of Educational Opportunity   This Week on The Heart of Giving Podcast - in Part 2: We continue our conversation with Dan Porterfield and Robert Diggs, then hear directly from Markera Jones, whose remarkable journey from a segregated school environment to academic excellence at Franklin & Marshall College demonstrates how institutional commitment to talent can change lives.   Four powerful insights:   "Each educational environment needs to tend to what kind of student with what kind of values might end up there. Our research found that there was a triangle of values students would be attracted to - they wouldn't be a number but a person, they valued being in community, and they wanted academic seriousness." - Dan Porterfield   "I went on a visit with my Upward Bound counselor... When we went on the visit, I remember just feeling a sense of welcome on the campus. It seemed like spaces that were well funded and well resourced for me to really learn things in a way that I didn't get in high school." - Markera Jones   "F&M's financial aid package was the best one that I got. That grant, which came from donors who want to fund talent, really helped me to see these people believe in me, they value me, they want to invest in me in that kind of way." - Markera   "At F&M, I got to have my first research experience where not only did I work in a psychology lab, it felt very special because this is the stuff that I was seeing on TV. It felt like I was doing this really important work in research, giving back to creating knowledge." - Markera on how F&M prepared her for her career path   Check out part 1 published last week, where we began our conversation with Dan Porterfield and Robert Diggs about the transformative power of growth mindset in higher education. Dan shared how Franklin & Marshall redefined talent identification beyond traditional metrics to focus on curiosity, resilience, and saying yes to opportunity.    Robert Diggs revealed how the "third spaces" outside the classroom shaped his development as a student and leader. They discussed how this approach to education not only benefits individual students but creates a vibrant ecosystem where everyone can thrive.   New episodes every Tuesday on YouTube and your favorite podcast platforms.

#289 What if everything you've been told about your brain's limits is wrong? In this episode hosted by Kirsten Tyrrel, we're diving deep into the science of neuroplasticity with cognitive expert Tara Bonner. For years, we've been told that our brains are fixed — that our capacity to learn and grow is limited by the time we reach adulthood. But science now tells a different story. Tara explains how neuroplasticity — our brain's ability to form new pathways — can transform not just how we learn but how we approach business and life. Whether you've struggled with ADHD, dyslexia, or simply believe you're "not good" at certain things, Tara reveals how understanding your unique cognitive profile can unlock massive growth as an entrepreneur. Don't miss this fascinating conversation about the intersection of science, business, and human potential! What we discuss with Tara: + The myth of a "fixed brain" + What neuroplasticity really means + How entrepreneurs can rewire their brains + The role of cognitive functions in success + ADHD and its connection to entrepreneurial traits + How labels can limit growth + Strengthening cognitive functions through intentional practice + Why creativity and ambition thrive in entrepreneurs + Growth mindset vs. fixed mindset + Practical steps to improve brain adaptability Thank you, Tara!

It does not come without sacrifice. It's important to make the decision to grow after careful consideration. More companies have died from excessive opportunities than the lack thereof, so it behooves leaders and organizations to set their objectives thoughtfully, be disciplined, and scale their mindset adequately. Daniel breaks down the 4 main stages of growth and the biggest challenges to be found in each.    WHAT I LOVE MOST… speaking with anyone who is maniacally focused on growth and can get us thinking critically and intentionally about growth, scaling, and continued success.   Running time: 34:47   Subscribe on iTunes   Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X   Find Daniel Online: LinkedIn Instagram   Growth Institute Website: Growth Institute   Daniel's Book: Start-Up to Scale-Up

Did you hear about the guy who owned last year's top-performing funds? Yeah, it's too bad he bought them this year, though.There's a lot of evidence to suggest that buying and holding index funds will pay off in the long run. Benji Bailey joins us today to make the case with some impressive numbers.Benji Bailey is Vice President of Investments and Senior Fixed Income Manager at Praxis Mutual Funds, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.The Importance of Indexes in InvestingTo understand index funds, we can view them like guideposts in a national park. Just as signs direct visitors to scenic views and help them stay on the right path, indexes serve as essential benchmarks for investors. These benchmarks, such as the S&P 500 for large-cap stocks or the Bloomberg Aggregate for bonds, allow investors to measure their progress toward financial goals.Without these guideposts, investors risk straying off course, possibly realizing too late that their portfolio has been heading in the wrong direction. Publicly available indexes provide a crucial check-in, ensuring investments align with long-term objectives.Many investors believe they can outperform the market by actively trading stocks. However, research suggests otherwise. A study published in The Journal of Finance found that individuals who frequently traded stocks underperformed compared to those who traded less.Over a six-year period:The market returned approximately 18% annually.Less active traders saw returns of around 16.4%.The most active traders only achieved 11.4%, underperforming by over 6%.This trend highlights the dangers of excessive trading. Warren Buffett summarized it well: “The stock market is designed to transfer money from the active to the patient.” The Bible echoes this wisdom in Proverbs 13:11: “Wealth gained hastily will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it.”Active vs. Passive Mutual FundsA key distinction in investing is the difference between active and passive mutual funds:Active funds: Managed by professionals who handpick a smaller set of stocks, hoping to outperform the market.Passive funds: Designed to mirror an index, holding a broad range of stocks for stable, long-term growth.According to Morningstar, over the past 15 years, only 9% of actively managed large-cap funds outperformed their passive counterparts—meaning 91% of active funds underperformed. This data suggests that passive investing can be a more reliable strategy for many investors.Aligning Investments with Faith ValuesMany faith-driven investors worry that traditional index funds may include companies whose values don't align with their beliefs. Praxis Mutual Funds addresses this concern by screening out companies involved in industries such as:AlcoholTobaccoGamblingAbortion-related businessesHowever, the more companies an investor removes from an index, the greater the potential for volatility in returns. For example, removing just one company from the S&P 500 would have little impact, but excluding half of the index's stocks would significantly increase volatility.Praxis Mutual Funds utilizes an optimized equity index strategy to balance faith-based values with financial performance. Instead of replicating an index, Praxis screens out objectionable companies and uses a software-driven approach to reallocate funds into a diversified mix that closely tracks the market's performance.This method allows faith-based investors to remain aligned with their values without sacrificing reasonable returns.The Role of Patience in InvestingMarket volatility can make investing an emotional challenge. Many investors instinctively buy when the market is high and sell when it's low—precisely the opposite of what leads to long-term success.Historical data shows that the S&P 500 has had an average annual return of around 10% over the past 97 years, but actual yearly returns rarely fall near that average. Investors who stay the course and focus on long-term gains are more likely to benefit from market growth.The Bible encourages this patient approach in Ecclesiastes 11:2: “Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come upon the land.” Diversification and patience are essential principles for wise investing.Making a Positive Impact Through InvestingBeyond screening out specific companies, Praxis Mutual Funds takes an active role in making a positive impact through:Proxy voting: Ensuring shareholder influence aligns with faith values.Shareholder engagement: Advocating for ethical corporate practices.Community development investing: Allocating 1% of funds to microfinance and social impact projects.Faith-based investing is about more than avoiding harmful industries; it's also about using investment dollars to create meaningful, Christ-centered change in the world. Whether through index funds or faith-based investment strategies, the goal is to align financial decisions with biblical principles.As Proverbs 21:5 reminds us: “The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.” A well-planned investment strategy, guided by faith and patience, can lead to lasting financial fruitfulness.For those interested in learning more about faith-based investing, Praxis Mutual Funds provides a wealth of information at PraxisInvests.com.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:As the executor of my deceased relative's estate, do I need to report my role to FinCEN, similar to reporting the controlling party of a company?I'm 85, and I draw Social Security. I used to do side jobs, and when I filed my taxes because of the side jobs, my CPA told me I don't need to file taxes anymore since I'm on Social Security.

Perkenalkan Denica Riadini-Flesch, seorang mantan ekonom yang menjadi pengusaha. Ia sedih melihat perjuangan para pengrajin dan petani tradisional di pedesaan Indonesia sehingga ia mendirikan perusahaan untuk membantu mengubah hidup mereka. SukkhaCitta adalah merek mode dari petani-ke-lemari, yang mengembalikan daya kepada para perempuan yang membuat pakaian kita. Misinya: mengakhiri eksploitasi terhadap perempuan dan sekaligus meregenerasi planet ini.Menyeimbangkan tujuan dan keuntungan, sekaligus melawan permintaan masyarakat akan fast fashion adalah upaya yang cukup berat. Pakaian murah yang diproduksi oleh peretail pasar massal membebani para perajin kecil di mana-mana. Namun, dampak fast fashion terhadap planet kita bahkan lebih dramatis. Industri ini bertanggung jawab atas 10 persen emisi karbon global. Memproduksi satu kaos katun saja bisa menghabiskan 2.700 liter air. Dan semua tekstil yang dibuang menumpuk di tempat pembuangan sampah, menambah 92 juta ton sampah setiap tahun. Begitu Riadini-Flesch mulai memperhatikan cara pembuatan pakaian, ia tahu bahwa ia harus melakukan sesuatu. “Dalam ekonomi kerajinan, pada dasarnya mereka membuat sesuatu selama enam bulan, dan baru setelah itu mereka mencoba menjualnya. Namun pada saat itu, perempuan tidak memiliki daya tawar. Mereka membutuhkan uang tunai agar keluarga mereka bisa bertahan hidup. Dan itulah mengapa sektor ini juga dipenuhi dengan begitu banyak eksploitasi,” jelasnya.Riadini-Flesch mengambil pendekatan holistik, memperluas akses ke pendidikan dan pasar, dan bisnisnya berfokus pada kalender pertanian, bukan kalender mode. “Kami adalah perusahaan sosial.

Your environment shapes your future whether you grow or self-destruct often depends on who you surround yourself with. Isolation isn't always the answer, especially if you're struggling. Being around winners, people who see the best in you can make all the difference. The right circle will challenge you, support you, and pull greatness out of you, even when you don't see it in yourself. I share a personal story about Swell, a moment where I had to step in and make sure he saw what he was truly capable of. Sometimes, when you're around people who want to win, they don't just push themselves—they push you too. That energy is contagious, it creates a cycle of growth, accountability, and success. Reach one, teach one. The more you're surrounded by people who strive for the best, the more you develop the habit of doing the same for others. It pays forward naturally.

Plato argued that reality is found in perfect, unchanging ideals, while the physical world is merely a flawed reflection. Chassidic thought challenges this notion, asserting that G-d's presence is found precisely in the imperfect, physical world. Through the lens of this debate, we explored how this idea impacts our relationships, personal growth, and spiritual journey—showing that meaning and divine purpose emerge from engaging with reality as it is, rather than escaping to an idealized version of it.Key Takeaways:Plato's philosophy separates the ideal from the real, placing truth in abstract perfection.Kabbalah teaches that G-d's presence is in the here and now, within life's imperfections.The Torah's repetition of the Mishkan's construction emphasizes that holiness is not in a divine blueprint but in human action.Growth, relationships, and meaning are found in embracing life's struggles, not escaping them.True beauty is not perfection—it's the courage to build something holy in an imperfect world.Notes: See Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, The Dignity of Difference, for a detailed explanation of this idea of Plato and its impact on Western thought."G-d desired a dwelling in the lowly realms" (Midrash Tanchuma, Nasso 16);  "This is what man is all about, this is the purpose of his creation and of the creation of all worlds, supernal and ephemeral" (Tanya, chapter 36).#Kabbalah #Judaism #Plato #Rabbi #chabad #Jewish #Bible #BibleStudy #Torah #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #Vayakhel #ParshatVayakhelSupport the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

This week, the very short, and in many ways abrupt, Parable of the Fig Tree. Jesus seems to be preaching the same themes as John the Baptist before him here, that time is short, repentance is essential, and bearing fruit a necessity. But, is that all there is? Is it about rest? Is it about nurture? Is it about patience? Is it about the Divine's delight in us? Well, if you read the scholars and commentators, the answer is "Yes, and then some." So listen, and see what you make of the Parable of the Fig Tree.

In the latest episode of the Building Better Developers podcast, hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche discuss business continuity, a concept that is often overlooked until it's too late. They explore the question: What happens when business operations are disrupted? Whether it's an illness, a vacation, unexpected growth, or even a global crisis, ensuring that a business can continue operating smoothly is essential for long-term success. What is Business Continuity? Business continuity is the ability of a company to keep running even when unexpected events disrupt normal operations. Unlike disaster recovery, which focuses on bouncing back after a catastrophe, continuity planning is about avoiding downtime in the first place. For entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and small business owners, this means having systems, processes, and contingencies to keep things moving forward. As Rob points out, contingency planning isn't something many small businesses think about until they need it. "We don't tend to think about it until we get into it," he says, "and then by the time we're out of it, we forget about it." This lack of foresight can lead to unnecessary stress, lost revenue, and even business failure when an unexpected challenge arises. The Good and Bad of Growth and Stability Rob and Michael highlight a key challenge they've faced recently—unexpected growth affecting stability. Growth is a great problem to have, but it can catch businesses off guard. Hiring new team members, scaling processes, and adjusting to new demands require strategic planning. Rob shares that his boutique consulting firm, RB Consulting, has had to face this head-on. "We were not as prepared for the growth as we would have liked to be," he admits. The lesson? If you don't anticipate growth and put structures in place, scaling can become a bottleneck rather than an opportunity. Michael echoes this sentiment, sharing his own struggles with hiring at his company, EnvisionQA. "It's not real easy to just go out and grab someone off the Internet and say, ‘Hey, come work for me.' You have to find the right people who align with your mission and goals to ensure smooth operations." Avoiding Single Points of Failure One of the most critical aspects of operational stability is identifying and eliminating single points of failure. If one key person or system is the only thing holding a business together, that business is fragile and at risk of significant disruption. Michael brings up financial security as an example. He recently faced a fraud alert that locked him out of his business bank account. This experience made him realize he was the sole person with access to critical financial tools. "If I were to get hit by a bus, or I were to get sick or go on vacation, are the bills still going to get paid?" To mitigate risks like this and ensure stability, businesses need to: Document key processes and make sure others can step in when necessary. Use automation for routine tasks, ensuring payroll, invoices, and customer communications don't halt. Cross-train employees so that no task depends on just one person, ensuring seamless operations. Planning for Life Events Maintaining business operations isn't just about emergencies—it's also about enjoying life without worrying about work. Rob points out that if your business requires you to be there daily, you're not running a business—you have a job. "If my daughter decides she wants to have a baby, and suddenly I'm out for a week being a grandpa, how am I going to keep the business going?" Michael asks. This question applies to all entrepreneurs. Can you take time off without disrupting daily operations? If the answer is no, it's time to rethink your systems. Using Automation, Documentation, and Delegation with Business Continuity The episode circles back to a recurring theme: automation, documentation, and delegation. The hosts encourage business owners to: Automate repetitive tasks to minimize manual workload. Create clear documentation so that employees or contractors can step in when needed. Delegate responsibilities to team members instead of trying to do everything alone. A practical example they discuss is the podcast itself. Rob and Michael record episodes in advance to ensure content keeps flowing even if they can't record for a week. The same principle applies to blogs, marketing campaigns, and customer support—businesses should plan and have a buffer to maintain smooth operations. The Business Stability Challenge At the end of the episode, Rob challenges listeners to analyze their own business by asking: What would have happened last week if you weren't available? What critical tasks would have gone unfinished? Who could have stepped in, and how can you make it easier for them to do so next time? What documentation, automation, or delegation can you implement to improve overall stability? By taking proactive steps today, business owners can reduce stress, improve resilience, and create a thriving company—even when life throws curveballs. Final Thoughts on Business Continuity Operational continuity is not just about handling disasters—it's about building a strong, scalable business that can run smoothly even when you step away. Whether it's an unexpected illness, a surprise growth spurt, or a well-earned vacation, having the right processes in place ensures your business can continue operating successfully.
