Odessa Jenkins built a professional women's tackle football league before anyone believed the market existed.On this episode of Dear FoundHer, host Lindsay Pinchuk talks with Odessa Jenkins, known as OJ, founder and CEO of the Women's National Football Conference. Her story carries a lesson female founders everywhere need to hear. You don't wait for permission to build something new. You describe your vision so clearly the right people see it before a single game is played. That's how OJ won over ten teams and two major sports brands while the league was still an idea on paper.This is the kind of conversation women in business rarely get to hear. OJ worked a full-time job while selling the league. She convinced her wife to leave a corporate career and build alongside her. Bootstrapping kept the lights on for five years and profit didn't arrive until year three. None of those details show up on a TV broadcast, yet every one of them shaped what the WNFC has become. Sixteen teams, 900 athletes, and a championship game airing live on ESPN2.Female founders will recognize themselves in OJ's honesty about startup funding, partnership marketing with brands like Adidas, and the unglamorous work behind a bold mission. Her message cuts through the noise. Ready isn't real. Ask for what you need. Stop choosing the hardest path when an easier one exists.If you're drawn to real founder stories with heart and grit, this episode will stay with you long after you press pause.Episode Breakdown:00:00 Female Founders Who Build Before the Blueprint Exists03:05 How Odessa Jenkins Started the WNFC08:26 Getting Adidas and Riddell to Back a League That Didn't Exist Yet11:13 Bootstrapping, Profit, and the Real Timeline14:43 How the Public Responded in Year One22:41 Fan Growth, Streaming Numbers, and National TV24:53 Flag Football, the Athlete Pipeline, and What's Coming27:55 Why the Timing Is Right for Women's Sports Right Now31:17 Championship Weekend at Ford Center34:28 Three Things Every Woman Starting a Business Needs to HearConnect with Odessa Jenkins:Follow OJ on InstagramFollow Women's National Football Conference on InstagramSubmit your most pressing business questions for our Q+A Substack on Thursday: https://form.jotform.com/260218655668062 Subscribe to The FoundHer Files Follow Dear FoundHer on Instagram Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm Hosted on Acast.

343 - I stumbled across a Facebook ad for a $200 branding session and almost scrolled past it. Instead, I booked it, showed up, and walked away completely rethinking how photographers can structure sessions for maximum profit. In this episode, Heather and I break down the model, the math, and why this idea has legs for pet, family, and portrait photographers.What to Listen For The Facebook ad that led to a business model breakthroughHow one photographer makes thousands per hour with rotation shootingWhy a $200 session doesn't undercut your $3,000 custom workThe mini session pricing myth you need to stop believingHow to structure product sales inside a lower-priced sessionThe psychological trick that gives clients permission to buy moreWhat to do when you see a competitor offering cheap sessionsA prepayment subscription model for year-round portrait revenueWhy the most successful photographers never dismiss an ideaThe nugget principle that changes how you approach new strategiesThere are way more paths to your revenue goals than you think.

Joe Woodward had what most people would call a dream job. Chief Marketing Officer for the Rajasthan Royals in Mumbai. Ten years building things in sport, music and entertainment. Then the pandemic hit, the rug came out from under him, and he moved home.He sat down to update his CV. He immediately got frustrated.That frustration became Vizzy — a platform built to replace the 500-year-old document Leonardo da Vinci invented, and give people a genuinely human way to show who they are. Not bullet points and PDFs. Not job titles and logos. Who they actually are.In this episode of Screw It Just DO It, Joe tells the full story. The flip chart moment with his sister Jess and her husband Chris. The investor conversation with Robert Dodds, Simon Fuller's business partner, that ended with four words: 'That's the idea. I'll back it tomorrow.' The cold start launch. The Instagram DM from a stranger who said Vizzy had just landed them their dream job. And the lesson from Burberry, Louis Vuitton, EY and Tiffany that the future of hiring is not about getting more applicants — it's about getting fewer, better ones.Key Takeaways- Why the flip chart moment changed everything — and what that looked like in practice- How Joe went from zero to Burberry and Louis Vuitton without a hiring background- Why the best founders are still personally obsessed with hiring at £2 billion- What Vizzy taught Joe about the difference between instinct and overthinking
Hugh Douglas and Joe Giglio weigh the controversy surrounding quarterback Brendan Sorsby entering the NFL supplemental draft after a gambling scandal. They debate whether his history of betting on games makes him a locker room liability or a top-tier talent worth a high-round draft pick.

El reciente combate de Ilia Topuria en la Casa Blanca, durante la celebración del cumpleaños del presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, ha abierto un debate sobre los límites de la violencia en el deporte. En su sección ‘Traficantes de Palabras' del programa ‘Herrera en COPE', el periodista Jorge Bustos ha introducido el tema reflexionando sobre cómo la civilización ha buscado encauzar la violencia a través de disciplinas regladas como el boxeo o las artes marciales mixtas.La periodista Marta San Miguel ha recogido el guante, compartiendo una experiencia personal para profundizar en la cuestión. San Miguel ha relatado su viaje a los pasados Juegos Olímpicos de París, donde asistió por primera vez a un combate de boxeo con el objetivo de "comprender ese deporte que ha dado tanta literatura y tanto cine exquisito". Su búsqueda era encontrar "lo narrativo, lo elevado" detrás del intercambio de golpes.En aquel pabellón, ha explicado, llegó a una conclusión ...

What happens when a team generates a thousand ideas - and kills most of them within minutes? In this Quick Win, I speak with Exploding Kittens co-creator Elan Lee about how he and his team turn chaos into creativity during their quarterly design retreats. Over three intense days, they generate, test, and ruthlessly discard ideas - all without bruising egos. Elan shares how he’s built a culture of trust where killing ideas isn’t failure, it’s focus - and why showing your team it’s safe to let go might be the most powerful leadership move you can make. Elan and I discuss: Inside Exploding Kittens’ quarterly design retreats Why Elan ditched the “yes, and…” rule for “no, kill it” How to create psychological safety in creative chaos The leadership habit that helps teams detach from their ideas Why rejecting ideas fast can unlock better ones KEY QUOTE “All the best ideas start out as terrible ideas - they just need room to evolve.” Explore Elan’s games at explodingkittens.com and connect with him on Instagram, X (Twitter), and LinkedIn.

If you've ever thought, “I should create a course…” but then immediately felt overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to even begin, this episode is for you.Today, I'm joined by Jasmine Jonte, founder and CEO of CRE8TION, and let me just say… she is the real deal.We dive into the difference between creating a course that simply shares information versus one that actually creates transformation, and why that difference is everything when it comes to results, reputation, and revenue.We also get into: When it's actually the right time to create a course (because yes, timing matters, and most people get it wrong) How to think about a course as a business asset, not just another thing on your to-do list And how to use AI the right way, without losing your voice, your value, or your credibility As a brick-and-mortar business owner myself, I'll be honest, I've dipped my toe into courses, and I have not done it well. This conversation gave me clarity, direction, and honestly… a little tough love in the best way.Jasmine is direct, she's thoughtful, and she's incredibly good at what she does. And around here, we believe clear is kind.If you've been sitting on ideas, spinning your wheels, or wondering if a course is the next right step, this episode is going to help you think about it in a whole new way.SHORT BIO:Jasmine Jonte is the founder and CEO of CRE8TION, where she helps top experts turn their knowledge into transformational, revenue-generating programs. She began as a 1st-grade teacher in one of Detroit's lowest-performing schools, where she learned to make complex ideas simple and engaging. In the online business world, she saw creators struggle with learning design, not expertise, and built CRE8TION to solve that gap. Her Course Flow to Cash Flow™ Method blends instructional design with business strategy to make programs powerful and profitable. Jasmine and her team ghostwrite courses end-to-end, from scripts and slides to workbooks and portals, so clients can stay in their zone of genius.

Kate Raworth believes that mainstream economists have got it wrong for decades. For her, reducing everything to a simple measure of gross domestic product and increasing that number every year is a huge mistake that is harming both people and planet. In 2017 she proposed a radical alternative in a book called ‘Doughnut Economics'. It proposes a new economic model that priortises social and environmental needs instead of how much we produce and consume. Many of you asked us to invite her on the podcast, and you've also sent in your questions - so we put them to her. We get Kate's view on whether its possible to build long term consensus for her approach at a time when people want short term solutions and whether there is a better metric to measure economic success. We also hear her assessment of universal basic income, and a former Radical guest challenges Kate's fundamental beliefs on economic growth.

Week 1 of Sacred Rest: The Gift of Sabbath explores how rest was God's idea from the very beginning.

Together, we'll look at the foundation of Sabbath in creation, the heart behind God's command to rest, and how Jesus invites us into true rest for our souls.

Imprisoned by fascist dictator Benito Mussolini in 1926, the prison writings of Italian Marxist theorist Antonio Gramsci remain essential 100 years later for understanding how fascism, policing, and incarceration function to suppress political dissent and preserve unequal systems of power.

Lewis Ward spent sixteen years covering games as an analyst at IDC. Now he runs Design Desk at Player Driven, and his obsession has moved upstream, into the design layer where games are still just ideas. In this episode he and Greg get into the part of game-making most teams skip: the psychology underneath the code, the math underneath the fun, and the reason a strong blueprint so often falls apart on the way to a shipped game. It's a conversation about why design is never really separate from the real world, and why the gap between theory and practice is where studios quietly lose.What they get into:Lewis's move from market-research analyst to Design Desk, and why the early "kernel of an idea" stage is the part that fascinates him nowThe Guild Wars 2 lesson from Kristen Cox: architect your live ops systems to be surprised by players, then have the humility to say "we were wrong" and roll with it (the 80-to-100-person "champ trains" nobody designed for)Why gaming is a verb, not a noun, and how even a single-player game is a conversation with the team that built itGame economy vs. monetization: Catalin Alexander's argument that every forced choice in a game is an economic decision, and that the math underneath the core loop is what holds the whole thing togetherThe three loops of a live game, from moment-to-moment to season to multi-year progression, and why they all have to line up mathematicallyGenres as psychological needs: how self-determination theory (autonomy, mastery, relatedness) maps onto why players pick what they pick, and why too many designers treat psychology as "frou frou" and skip itThe dark power fantasy problem: why letting one player feel like a god works in single-player and breaks the moment a game goes social (and what that means for web3 games that turned everyone else into serfs)A preview of the upcoming Charlie Olsen episode on skill-based matchmaking, framed as Activision managing skill like a scarce resource to engineer close, uncertain, "sweaty" matchesWhere AI playtesting tools might let smaller teams get design insight without spending six figures on a data clean roomGuest: Lewis Ward, VP of Content, Design Desk at Player Driven. Former IDC games analyst (2009–2025), covering PC, console, and mobile. Reading list referenced: The Rules We Break (Eric Zimmerman), A Theory of Fun (Raph Koster), and a self-determination theory text.Mentioned in the episode: Kristen Cox (ArenaNet / Guild Wars 2), Oscar Clark (Arcanix), Catalin Alexander (behavioral game economist), Nick Yee (Quantic Foundry), Mark Otero (dark power fantasy take), Charlie Olsen (Invokation Games, ex-Activision matchmaking), and an upcoming Zach Letter / WonderWorks episode on Roblox and real-time live ops.A line worth pulling: On social games, Lewis: "Once you get into a social context, it's very difficult to make one person a god, because that makes everybody else a serf. And you know what the serfs will do? They'll quit the game."

S(t)igma je divadelní představení o tom, jak se dnes žije mladým mužům a jak moc se po nich chce být pořádným chlapem, přičemž oni sami o to často vůbec nestojí. „Mladí dospělí muži, pro které je idea rovných práv úplně normální, jsou stigmatizovaní ze dvou stran – musí se bránit, že nejsou slabí, a ženám říkat, že nechtějí dominovat. A tato síla mladých mužů je pro demokracii absolutně klíčová,“ říká filozofka, performerka a spoluautorka zmíněné hry Alice Koubová.
Most people assume award-winning creative work is a high-wire act: brilliant, risky, and impossible to repeat. Karen Pearce of Rethink makes the opposite case. Fresh off Ad Age's 2026 Agency of the Year and ADWEEK's 2025 Independent Agency of the Year, and as the most-awarded independent agency in the world last year, Rethink keeps producing famous, business-moving work on purpose.Recorded as a Cannes Lions lead-up, this conversation gets into the machinery behind the run. Karen explains why independence lets Rethink protect creative standards instead of chasing scale, why the client's real job is finding sparks rather than poking holes, and how the CRAFTS framework gives a whole agency a shared language for what good looks like. Karen walks us through the Heinz philosophy that every ad is a product ad, the go-then-grow approach that turns big swings into low-risk reps, and why, going into Cannes, she expects a reclaiming of human craft in an AI-flooded market.The through-line: bold creative shouldn't feel scary. Build the right system and the right partnership, and the work that wins awards is the same work that drives the business.Timestamps00:00 Find the sparks, not the holes02:08 What's behind the run: independence and the receipts05:48 Why great creative shouldn't feel scary09:12 Builders vs hole-pokers: the client's real job14:27 Famous brands outperform business metrics19:17 AI, human craft, and the IKEA sleep talkers22:42 CRAFTS: a shared language for great work30:57 Heinz: every ad is a product ad36:24 Go then grow: getting your reps in44:17 Idea first: when media becomes the creativeReferencesRethink: rethinkideas.comKaren Pearce: LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/karengpearce/Rethink's Book: The Business of Creativity Referenced campaigns: IKEA “U Up” and IKEA organizer / Skittles out-of-home; Heinz “Looks Familiar” and the keystone ketchup pouch; Destination Canada; Coinbase craft-led film; Epitaph “garbage media” dumpster billboardsAnthropic “Keep Thinking” campaign for Claude, by Mother Awards context: Ad Age 2026 Agency of the Year

Fixed‑price contracting is often treated as the answer to cost control in federal acquisition, and it works when requirements are clear and outcomes are known. But as agencies try to apply that model more broadly, they keep running into the reality that many projects don't start with that kind of certainty. Here with a perspective from the industry side of the table is Brian Miller, president of BMNT.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Abel Selaocoe has been redefining the sound of the cello. The South African cellist and singer was in Canada recently, playing with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra.

In this episode of the Harvest Growth Podcast, Jon LaClare sits down with Evan Zhao of Pacagen to discuss how his team developed and marketed a new kind of pet allergy solution designed to help people live more comfortably with the animals they love.Evan shares the challenge of bringing a product to market when customers do not already understand the category. Unlike products built around familiar trends like magnesium, creatine, or protein, Pacagen had to educate customers on why pet allergies happen, how their solution works, and why it is different from traditional options.The conversation dives into what it takes to build demand for a new product category, including how Pacagen approached longer sales cycles, performance marketing, website sales, Amazon, and customer education. Evan explains why products that require more explanation often perform better on a brand's own website, where companies can capture customer information, retarget visitors, and continue educating them over time.Evan also shares why lifetime value is one of the most important drivers of growth, especially for a product customers may come back to repeatedly. From customer service to packaging, scent, shipping, and the full product experience, Pacagen focuses on improving every touchpoint to make sure customers have a reason to return.This episode also explores Pacagen's work with shelters, where the company gives away free samples to help more people keep their pets instead of giving them up due to allergies. Evan explains why this is one of the few initiatives his team does without focusing directly on ROI — because helping pets stay in loving homes is valuable on its own.In today's episode of the Harvest Growth Podcast, we cover:● How Pacagen created a new category in pet allergy relief● Why educating customers is critical when selling an unfamiliar product● How longer sales cycles impact performance marketing strategy● Why website sales can be more effective than Amazon for products that require explanation● How Amazon can serve as a demand capture channel● Why lifetime value depends on the full customer experience● How customer service helps improve product retention● Why product sampling can build trust, create goodwill, and support a larger mission● How Pacagen is helping pet owners and shelters reduce allergy-related pet surrenderIf you're building a new product category, marketing a product that requires education, or trying to improve long-term customer value, this episode offers practical insight into how product quality, customer experience, and clear messaging work together to support sustainable growth.To learn more about Pacagen, visit Pacagen.com or search for Pacagen on Amazon.Do you have a brand you'd like to launch or scale?

My recent chat with Jordan E. Petersen on the excellent Gods, Ghosts and UFOs Podcast. Follow them on substack: https://ggupodcast.substack.com/ What's Jo's Favorite Fairy Sighting? "This week, Jordan finally gets to ask the host of the singular Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast the most annoying question he can come up with, and she does not disappoint. Jo Hickey-Hall has been collecting these stories for years. And the one she leads with is hers: a stick being made of literal sticks, running down a beach in Jersey with a gait so strange it made everyone watching laugh. Years later, a man in northeast England describes seeing almost exactly the same thing. We talk about why these things, these beings, whatever they are, resist being accurately described or depicted. They're so vivid in the moment, but as soon as you start to try to put words on them, they seem to slip away. But we're doing our best. You can come judge for yourself. Highlights: Jo Hickey-Hall, folklorist, social historian, host of The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast (also find her at scarlettofthefae.com and preorder her book here) Nerd Critic Jo's favorite fairy sighting The shadow-cutters A stick being made of sticks The Brazilian Ent (a tree trunk that walked, then tried to become a man, and didn't quite get it right) The disconnect between perception and description “I can see it in my head, but it just doesn't seem to translate into words or drawings” Rudolf Otto, The Idea of the Holy Mysterium tremendum and mysterium fascinans Why one guy runs away and the other is filled with awe Conditioning, inheritance, and the holding place we make for the uncanny Orbs in the context of UFOs, fae, and consciousness Conscious plasma :) Different witnesses, different filters/stations/signals How to learn to see auras (try it at a conference with a white screen behind the speaker) The Genius Loci Two strangers see the same being in the same place, twenty years apart “Your daemon is really driving you” How to actually meet the fae Picking up litter is an offering Thresholds: doorways, dawn and dusk, the line where the beach meets the sea, the transitions in your own life Theosophy and the elemental beings — Blavatsky, Steiner, Paracelsus The London flat haunted by goblins (near a crossroads, near water) Are the fae hitching lifts on trains and trucks? Fairies as emergent phenomena of place (this is what humans are, actually) Part two maybe? (with Mal (and Tom???)) And in the epilogue…on Gods, Ghosts and UFOs A disembodied head in a kitchen window Why you can't tear down a house to make a haunting go away How UFOs are seen so often over a Neolithic burial chamber that locals don't bother to look up anymore ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership S U P P O R T If you'd prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee' and I'd be very grateful

Execution reveals who you are. In this episode, Kevin and Alan break down why most people do not need more ideas. They need more follow-through. Big dreams and bold goals are easy to talk about, but they only become real through action, consistency, and self-awareness.This episode challenges the gap between imagination and implementation.

In This Episode:In this continuing series on Spiritual Authority, Terry and Reneé Mize go back to the beginning and examine God's original plan for mankind. From Genesis 1:26, we discover that authority, dominion, and stewardship were part of God's design from the very start.Many believers see themselves as victims of circumstances, but Scripture reveals something very different. God created man with purpose, authority, and responsibility in the earth. Understanding this foundational truth changes how we approach faith, prayer, spiritual warfare, and daily life.In this episode you'll discover:• Why dominion originated with God• What authority was given to mankind in Genesis• The difference between God's power and delegated authority• Why understanding dominion affects every area of life• How believers can walk confidently in God's original purposeIf you've ever wondered why spiritual authority matters or what God's plan for mankind really was, this teaching will strengthen your faith and deepen your understanding of Scripture.

(5) Bob Zimmerman reflects on the Cold War context of 1968, a year defined by Vietnam, riots, and political assassinations. Zimmerman disputes the idea that NASA had a "military culture," describing it instead as a civilian organization using World War II-style management to achieve great things. However, he critiques the program's top-down government structure as a "dead end" that mirrored Soviet centralization. Zimmerman argues this approach ultimately caused the program to lose political support once the Cold War "stunt" was achieved, rather than fostering a sustainable free-market space industry that could have continued lunar exploration.
