2 - Two years of inaction on Senate banking report by Australian Citizens Party

Grant McDowell & Tim Buckley– Spark Club Podcast 27 May 2026 Highlights – ACCELERATING RENEWABLES DRIVES NEM ELECTRICITY PRICE DEFLATION Amazing to see electricity price DEFLATION being delivered in Australia in the middle of the latest fossil fuel war, with its resulting hyperinflation of global fossil fuel prices. The Australian Energy Regulator has released its final Default Market Offer (DMO) starting 1 July 2026. Residential flat rate standing offer prices will fall by between 3-5% in NSW and by 7.2% in South East Queensland compared to last year, while South Australian households will have a modest increase of 1.4%. Small businesses will see reductions across all three regions, with prices decreasing by 7-12% in South Australia, 10-14% in South East Queensland, and 9.0-21% in NSW. Earlier this week the Essential Services Commission delivered a further reduction in the Victorian Default Offer; FY2026–27 will be on average 5% lower than last year for households. For small businesses the price is down on average 6%. A major contributing factor is the record high investments into clean energy by Australia's public – with over 400k home battery installs totalling >11GWh achieved in just 11 months, supporting the 3GW pa of rooftop solar installs. Lowlights – China installed just 75GW of RE in 4MCY2026, -41%$ yoy Solar installs of 51GW in 4M 2026 -51% yoy. Still more than the RoW combined, but disappointingly down in the middle of year. China added a depressing 28GW of fossil powered capacity YTD 2026, +26% yoy. Why? China is consolidating after knocking the lights out last year. But also GDP growth is still on track at +5% yoy, and Industrial value-add +5.6% yoy. Keeping their govt. firepower in-case Trump attacks China again, and this time has an impact, unlike the last few times! In the electricity sector, total electricity generation was +5.4% yoy YTD 2026, unfortunately with nuclear down yoy, coal power was +3.8% yoy. Not what we want to see continue over the rest of 2026. Main Story – The ABC / Guardian Australia Epic reveal  A major exposé on ABC Four Corners on Monday, in collaboration with the Guardian, revealed irrefutable evidence of BHP reversing its commitments to meaningfully cut emissions in a credible timeframe. The egregious walkback, as the climate crisis escalates, was laid out in hundreds of pages of leaked internal company records.  What BHP does matters. It is the world's largest mining company by market capitalisation, generating revenues of US$51bn in the last financial year with underlying earnings of US$26bn and a US$18bn pre-tax profit to its shareholders. Andrew Mackenzie, BHP's CEO until 2019, said publicly that decarbonisation was a strategic imperative, with failure to act posing an existential risk. Its Pilbara decarbonisation plans were urgent and comprehensive, and involved rapid electrification of locomotives and haulage trucks, and a massive buildout of solar to reduce diesel and gas dependence. It had plans to deploy US$3bn in decarbonisation investment by 2030 to underpin its climate targets and secure its licence to operate. Then it all went to the proverbial.  In 2024, CEO Mike Henry introduced BHP's Climate Transition Action Plan (CTAP, aka CRAP), which sounds great except for it being entirely hollow. BHP massively delayed its entire decarbonisation trajectory until after 2030 – trashing its stated intention to address climate risk and abrogating its corporate responsibility to act in this critical decade. Astonishingly, the "plan" forecasts BHP's global emissions will rise from FY2025-FY2030. Up is not down. There is currently categorically zero chance of BHP's plans meeting its net zero by 2050 commitment. In the knowledge that this story was coming, BHP vigorously cranked up the spin machine. A curiously timed pamphlet, released last week by economics consultancy Mandala, which has close ties to the PMO, broke down top ASX listed industrial corporates' global scope 1 and 2 emissions profiles in FY2025 vs FY2020, conveniently pitching BHP as a corporate leader. BHP then mounted an ad campaign trumpeting the trumped-up claims. To call Mandala's brochure misleading is generous. BHP primarily relies on the electrification of BHP's huge Chilean copper mining operations and the closure of the high emissions NickelWest business to boost BHP's decarbonisation credentials and obscures BHP's dereliction of its responsibilities in the Pilbara.  Production-based emissions intensity would tell a different story on BHP's progress, and that of other giants like Rio featured by Mandala – despite the coordinated reporting in The Australian engineered to promulgate the Mandala talking points while bashing genuine decarbonisation leader Fortescue. Why the heel dragging by BHP? Follow the money – the billions paid to the big miners each year by the federal government to maintain their imported diesel addiction.  In Australia, BHP extracts from the taxpayer a $620m annual imported diesel refund covering the staggering 1.2 billion litres of this climate-destroying fuel it uses each year in its mining operations. Diesel powers >60% of BHP's total energy needs. This dependency undermines our national energy independence, which requires an accelerated transition to homegrown renewables, and continues to put Australia's energy security at risk. It persists in an increasingly fraught global geopolitical landscape riven by energy wars – see PM Anthony Albanese begging our trade partners for supply as the global oil supply shock rolls on. And BHP is the #1 beneficiary of this insane structural barrier to mining industry decarbonisation and the massive opportunities for onshoring and reskilling of our workforce.  Meanwhile Fortescue is investing US$6-7bn this decade in electrification, decarbonisation and energy security in the Pilbara – a world leading effort to position Australian iron ore mining at the forefront of emissions reduction. It is partnering with the best cleantech firms in the world, who happen to mostly be domiciled in China – Australia's #1 trade partner and biggest iron ore customer. In so doing it is building important geopolitical bridges for Australia even as world trade is undermined by the US.  Despite being a leading beneficiary of the diesel subsidy, Fortescue is a vocal advocate of urgent reform, as demonstrated by CEO Dino Otranto on Four Corners. Fortescue supports CEF's position that the subsidy should be capped at $50m per firm pa, with recipients required to invest any refund above that threshold in decarbonisation, or forgo that amount. This reform would convert a massive headwind to energy transition in mining to a Transition Tax Incentive, instantly accelerating decarbonisation and enabling Australia to grasp the immense green industrial opportunities of the emerging net zero global economy. A tightening of the Safeguard Mechanism is also key to incentivising decarbonisation, with a progressive ratcheting up of minimum Australian Carbon Credit Unit prices, to make polluters like BHP meaningfully cut emissions or pay. The facts are that BHP, like Rio Tinto, Hancock Prospecting and Fortescue for the past 6 years have tapped into literal rivers of gold from their iron ore exports, booking return on capital ranging from 30% pa up to 70% pa. BHP's FY2025 results for WA iron ore cite an "5 year average return of ~65%", which any company would kill for. They have the capital firepower to massively invest, accelerate electrification and decarbonisation of the Pilbara now as Fortescue is doing, and lead the world. Yet they sit on their hands. The region has a pathetic renewable energy penetration of just 2% versus 44% for Australia's national grid. We need an end to the Big Australian's gutless reversals on climate, cheap talk and abysmal underinvestment in Australian decarbonisation. Equally, we need an urgent show of political courage from the government to decouple BHP and its counterparts from the firehose of diesel cash they have clamped themselves to at the expense of the people and the planet. What's coming up?  27/28 May 2026 CEF Tim will be attending the Hunter New Energy Symposium in Newcastle to talk about the progress in the Hunter Valley on practical advances in the energy transition as it is occurring there. 18-27th June Tim is in China with Austrade and SEC seeing my favourite companies e.g. XCMG, Sigenergy, China State Grid, Windrose & Xiami.

If your prospects are ghosting you, dragging their feet, or making the final decision based on whoever has the lowest number, the problem probably isn't your price. It's that you're selling the plunger. In this episode, Todd Dawalt breaks down why most contractors spend too much time talking about their company and not enough time talking about what the client actually wants. He shares a four-step sales framework for getting prospects to make faster decisions, stop hiding their budget, and see you as the obvious choice. Todd walks through how to uncover the desired end result, identify the risks and obstacles standing in the way, position yourself as the path of least resistance, and introduce the investment only after the value is fully established. If you've been winging the sales process and wondering why deals keep stalling out, this episode gives you a repeatable framework you can put to work right away.

Today, Amy and Jag look at a financial risk that is easy to ignore because it does not feel urgent in the moment: the cost of doing nothing. In this episode, we focus on how delays in financial decisions can quietly create long term consequences, especially for healthcare professionals who are used to acting quickly at work but may postpone choices in their own financial lives. The central idea is simple. Inaction is still a decision, and over time it can carry a real cost. Amy explains that many financial delays do not come with immediate pain. Income is still coming in, accounts still exist, and nothing appears broken. That makes it easy to leave cash uninvested, skip HSA contributions, ignore open enrollment changes, or delay insurance decisions. But time is often the thing being lost, and time can translate into large amounts of money. A $100,000 cash balance left sitting too long can mean missing tens of thousands of dollars in growth. Missed HSA contributions can reduce both tax savings and long term wealth. Idle cash spread across accounts may not seem serious until the total missed opportunity becomes clear. The episode also highlights timing windows that matter. Open enrollment, tax planning before year end, lower income years that create Roth conversion opportunities, and insurance decisions made while health is still favorable can all have meaningful financial impact. Amy gives several examples where waiting leads to higher taxes, less retirement savings, or insurance that becomes more expensive or unavailable. She also notes that rule changes can remove options people assumed would still be there later. A major theme in the conversation is that the biggest mistakes are often basic ones that never get revisited. People repeat the same benefits elections, forget to update beneficiaries, let cash build up unintentionally, and miss planning opportunities because nothing forces action. Amy stresses that beneficiary designations override a will, which makes that one of the fastest and most important items to review. She also emphasizes income protection through insurance and the importance of identifying unintentional cash balances. The practical advice is to start small and focus on what matters most. Review beneficiaries. Check insurance coverage. Look for idle cash. Make a short list of what has a deadline, what affects family, and what becomes more expensive if delayed. Amy suggests one or two intentional financial reviews each year, along with a pre year end tax check and regular check ins on the biggest issues. The message is not to do everything at once. It is to notice what has been sitting too long and move it forward. Doing nothing feels neutral, but it is often where the biggest hidden costs begin.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Tom Needham - teacher, school leader, and author of Engelmann's Direct Instruction in Action - to explore what direct instruction really means. Marking the final book in the In Action series, the conversation digs into Siegfried Engelmann's work, from the power of carefully sequenced examples and non-examples to the importance of “sameness,” big ideas, generative content, and tightly designed practice. Tom explains how direct instruction transformed his teaching of English, particularly for pupils who had struggled with writing, spelling and foundational skills, while also showing how its principles apply across subjects from maths and science to history and geography. Along the way, they discuss the philosophical and practical objections to scripted programmes, the role of teacher expertise in curriculum design, and why precise instruction can be a route to greater pupil success, confidence and independence.Tom Needham has been teaching for nearly twenty years. He has previously taught English in International schools in Malaysia and Nigeria; EFL in Bangkok and Harrogate, as well as Sociology, Media Studies and all the Humanities in Croydon. He is author of Explicit English Teaching, and most recently Engelmann's Direct Instruction in Action, which will be available on the 19th of June. Tom is currently an Assistant Headteacher at a school in Charlton.Tom Sherrington has worked in schools as a teacher and leader for 30 years and is now a consultant specialising in teacher development and curriculum & assessment planning.

Reflections from host Sarah Olivieri ... The Problem Isn't Change. It's the Size of the Decision. Most nonprofit leaders I talk to are not actually afraid of change. They are stuck between two sizes of it. On one side, a monster decision. Restructure the program. Leave the role. Overhaul the funding model. A move so big it feels reckless to say out loud. On the other side, no change at all. Keep going. Ride it out another quarter. Wait for more information. Wait for the board. Wait for a better moment. What nobody offers is the middle option. The small, cheap, fast, reversible move whose only job is to teach you something. That option is almost always the right one, and it is almost always missing from the conversation. Where This Thinking Came From I've been turning this over for a while. I recently had a conversation about exactly this with Ashley Jablow, who works with leaders and teams in transition and has deep training in design thinking. It sharpened how I think about why change gets stuck inside nonprofits and what actually unsticks it. The short version: the problem isn't that leaders lack courage. The problem is that the only option on the table is too expensive to say yes to. Change Is Neutral. The Story You Wrap Around It Isn't. Change is constantly happening. Seasons turn. Budgets shift. Staff come and go. A funder's priorities drift. A board member rolls off. None of that is catastrophic on its own. What makes change feel charged is the story we attach to it. In the nonprofit sector, that story is usually some version of: change is dangerous, so we should avoid it. That story hardens into a posture. The posture becomes the culture. The culture becomes the reason your organization cannot move. In short: Change is constant and mostly neutral. What makes it feel dangerous is the interpretation the organization layers on top. Culture that treats change as risky will struggle to adapt even when adaptation is overdue. If you want an organization that can respond to what the world is actually doing, you have to separate the event from the story. The Hidden Cost of "Staying Put" Here is the belief I keep running into inside nonprofits: doing nothing is the safe option. Especially with money. Especially with programs that "have always worked." Especially when funders are watching. The truth is, staying put is not neutral. It has a cost, and that cost is usually larger than the one people are trying to avoid. If a program is slowly losing relevance and you do not adjust, the cost shows up later as a funding cliff. If a leader is quietly burning out and the system does not adapt, the cost shows up as a crisis hire. If a revenue model depends on one big grant and you do not diversify, the cost shows up when that grant does not renew. In short: Inaction is not the absence of risk. It is a different kind of risk. The cost of standing still usually arrives later and bigger. Every "we'll deal with that next year" is a decision, not a non-decision. When leaders only weigh the risk of moving, they miss half the math. Why Nonprofits Over-Index on the Risk of Moving Two structural things push nonprofits toward inaction. The first is the donor stewardship story. Somewhere along the way, "be a good steward of donor money" got translated into "never take risks with money." That is not what stewardship means. Stewardship means using resources wisely in service of the mission. Sometimes that means holding the line. Sometimes it means making a bet. The second is harder to see, and it matters more. In most nonprofits, the people with the biggest formal role in risky decisions, the board, do not experience the consequences of those decisions. The staff does. The community does. The executive director does. The board votes and goes home. So when a decision comes with risk, the board defaults to "let's not do that." To them, sitting still feels responsible. To the people running the organization every day, sitting still might be the thing burning the building down. In short: Stewardship is not a synonym for risk avoidance. The people voting on risky decisions in nonprofits often do not bear the consequences. The people who bear the consequences are usually best positioned to lead the decision. Decisions belong, as much as possible, with the people who will live inside their outcomes. That is not a revolutionary idea. It is just rarely the way nonprofit governance actually operates. The Move That Makes Change Manageable This is where the size of the decision matters. When every change is framed as a cannon shot, people freeze. The stakes are too high, the ambiguity too wide, the board too uncomfortable. So nothing moves. But there is another option. Jim Collins calls it firing bullets before cannons. Ashley Jablow frames it as a design thinking question. It is the same idea in different clothes. Ask what is the smallest, fastest, cheapest thing I could do right now to learn the most? That is a different size of decision. It does not require a board vote. It does not require a three year strategic plan. It does not require certainty. It only requires that you be willing to run a small experiment and read the results. In short: The question to ask before any big change is: what's the smallest move I could make to learn the most? A bullet is cheap. A cannon is expensive. Fire bullets first. Experiments replace certainty with evidence. One line from that conversation with Ashley has stayed with me: "What is the smallest, fastest, cheapest thing that you could do or try right now in order to learn the most?" What I appreciate about this framing is that it does not ask the leader to be brave. It asks them to be curious. It shrinks the change until it fits inside the capacity the organization actually has, and then it uses the result of that small move to decide the next one. That is how sustainable change actually works. Not through heroic leaps. Through a chain of small moves that each teach you something. Self-Trust Is the Quiet Currency of Change There is a second thing small experiments do that nobody talks about, and it may be more important than the learning itself. They build self-trust. Every small move you make and see through teaches you that you are a person who follows through. Every small experiment that works teaches you that your instincts are worth listening to. Every small experiment that fails teaches you that failure is survivable and useful. You cannot lead a big change if you do not trust yourself to make a small one. And most leaders who feel stuck are not missing strategy. They are missing the lived experience of their own follow-through. In short: Small experiments are also self-trust training. Leaders who have never run a small move do not trust themselves with a big one. Evidence of your own follow-through is what makes confidence durable. This is why the "do one small thing" advice is not soft advice. It is structural. It is how capacity gets built. Another moment from the conversation sat with me here. Ashley named a question she said often hides under any change effort, whether leaders realize it or not: "Can I trust myself to actually accomplish this and follow through?" Most leaders never say that question out loud. So the answer never gets built. Small experiments are how you build the answer. What This Makes Possible When leaders stop sizing every change as either "do nothing" or "blow it up," the whole posture of the organization changes. What shifts: Change stops being a crisis event and becomes a practice. Decisions get made closer to the people who live with the outcomes. Self-trust builds through reps, not through a pep talk. The organization starts learning instead of defending. The work is not lighter. It is just better aimed. Closing This isn't about being braver. It's about picking a smaller move. Nonprofits can adapt without crisis. They can change without drama. They can build self-trust through evidence instead of hoping for it. Not by betting the whole organization on one cannon shot, but by firing a lot of cheap, honest bullets and paying attention to where they land.

Most people don't realize that standing still is costing them more than any leap of faith ever could.Steph dives into the hidden weight of inaction and how the small, seemingly insignificant decisions we avoid can quietly shape the entire trajectory of our lives. Drawing on a powerful story about her grandmother, Steph unpacks why fear and comfort so often disguise themselves as safety, and how that illusion keeps us stuck. This episode is a call to recognize that impact isn't reserved for big, dramatic moments. It's built through consistent, courageous choices and the willingness to embrace discomfort as a path to personal growth.In this episode you'll discover:The true cost of inaction and how it affects our livesThe role of courage and decision-making in personal growthThe subtle but powerful impact of small, consistent actionsThe story of Steph's grandmother and lessons on fear and inactionYour takeaways:Standing still is an active choice that can lead to missed opportunities.Small decisions, repeated over time, have exponential impacts.Fear and comfort often disguise themselves as safety, preventing growth.Chapters00:00 The Cost of Inaction06:22 Personal Reflections and Lessons from My Grammy12:02 Creating Your Life: The Power of Choice and Action

Close your eyes and imagine your life without the fear of failure. Without feeling not good enough. Without controlling food and weight. What would freedom from your eating disorder actually look like? If you're a high achiever who's successful in every area of life except recovery, this episode will change everything. You think you're afraid of failing at recovery—but what if you're actually terrified of succeeding? This raw, honest episode explores: Why accomplished women sabotage their own recovery progress The difference between fear of failure vs. fear of success in healing How playing small keeps you stuck in quasi-recovery What you're really afraid of losing when you recover Why high achievers struggle with "going all in" on recovery How to stop arguing for your limitations The mindset shift that creates fearless recovery success For the high-achieving woman who crushes every goal except the one that matters most. THE HIGH ACHIEVER'S RECOVERY PARADOX You crush every skating goal, professional milestone, life achievement—second place was never good enough. You've checked all of life's boxes, earned the degrees, found the right partner, built the career. But recovery? That feels different. You thought you were trapped because you were terrified of failing. You wanted to do recovery perfectly, just like everything else. People were watching—would you land the jump or end up on your butt? But here's the truth that changes everything: You're not afraid of failing. You're afraid of succeeding. THE FEAR OF SUCCESS REVELATION "It wasn't that I was terrified of failing. I had failed in my life, and I knew that whatever I set my mind to, I accomplished." You know that if you set your mind on a goal, you accomplish it. This is the exact same willpower that became your eating disorder superpower. But being afraid of success? That kept you in quasi-recovery—one foot in, one foot out. Why success feels scarier than failure: Saying you're afraid of failure allows you to play small If you go all in, then you actually have to go all in Inaction brings doubt and fear; action creates courage and confidence Being fearful of failure keeps you "safe" The real fear: What you'll have to become and what you must let go of in the process. THE SELF-SABOTAGE PATTERN Fear of failure keeps you from achieving goals because you do nothing. Fear of success keeps you from long-term freedom and threatens your dreams. Are you terrified of letting go of your "current normal" to find your very best self? What may frighten you most isn't what you'll have to DO to accomplish recovery, but WHO you'll need to become. The sabotage shows up as: Always procrastinating on recovery actions Waiting for tomorrow to do what you want today (freedom) Playing small instead of going all in Staying mad at yourself for doing nothing THE BREAKTHROUGH QUESTIONS Reflection prompts to uncover your real fears: Are you truly terrified of failure, or more terrified of succeeding? What would successful recovery look like for you? What do you want to achieve from your recovery? What do you need to lay down in order to do just that? Most people spend their entire life arguing for their limitations—you're not most people. HOW TO OVERCOME THE FEAR OF SUCCESS 1. Start Small & Commit Take one step, then the next Proceed from pure intent Write a letter committing to yourself: "Today I stop playing small" 2. Reframe Failure When you fail, don't wear it as identity Ask: "What is this teaching me right now?" Coach yourself through setbacks 3. Embrace Uncertainty with Certainty "The future is uncertain, but your success is certain." Write this down, post it everywhere Fall in love with recovering, with the journey, with the new you 4. Get Present with Possibility "What if I do recover? What if I impact lives beyond my own? What if I'm actually creating my dream?" 5. Choose Fearless Success The truth about becoming fearlessly successful in recovery: You decide you're going to be fearlessly successful by failing some days and stepping forward anyway. THE SUCCESS MINDSET SHIFT Stop arguing for your limitations. Most people spend their lives explaining why something won't work—you're not most people because you're listening to this show. You want better and you deserve it. So don't be most people. Create a life that actually works for YOUR life. We were put on this planet to create—our Creator created us to create and do. Are you doing, or are you sitting back waiting for life to happen to you? KEY QUOTES

FREE RESOURCE:  Try our Burnout Archetype Quiz: https://twc-jqgxs.involve.me/archetype-quiz In this episode of Wild Medicine, Dr. Michelle Peris explores the themes of self-trust, the Wild Woman archetype, and the impact of good girl conditioning on women's emotional awareness and relationships.  She discusses the importance of understanding sensory data, setting boundaries, and recognizing incongruence in relationships.  The conversation emphasizes the need for effective communication skills and the cost of overanalyzing interactions.  Dr. Peris also introduces the concept of the fawn response, highlighting how hypervigilance can lead to disconnection from one's own needs and desires.  In this conversation, Dr. Michelle Peris delves into the complexities of overthinking, the impact of good girl conditioning, and the importance of setting boundaries. She emphasizes how the nervous system plays a crucial role in our responses to perceived threats and how societal conditioning can lead to self-doubt and compliance.  Through personal anecdotes and insights, she encourages women to trust their instincts and recognize the data their bodies provide, ultimately advocating for a more empowered and authentic way of living.   Takeaways The Wild Woman archetype encourages women to embrace their true selves. Good girl conditioning can lead to a lack of self-trust. Understanding sensory data is crucial for setting boundaries. Congruence in relationships is essential for emotional health. Overanalyzing others' behaviour can lead to confusion and resentment. Effective communication skills are vital for expressing needs. The fawn response can cause disconnection from one's own emotions. Rewilding involves reclaiming one's emotional awareness. Self-trust is foundational for healthy relationships. The cost of not addressing incongruence in relationships is high. Your nervous system is trained to protect you from perceived danger. Good girl conditioning leads to a deep association between compliance and self-worth. Setting boundaries can feel threatening due to past conditioning. Overanalyzing relationships often stems from a desire for safety. The discomfort you feel is a signal of an imbalance, not a betrayal. Honesty in relationships fosters intimacy and connection. Women often struggle to set boundaries due to fear of conflict. Recognizing the mismatch between words and actions is crucial for self-trust. Small adjustments in behaviour can lead to healthier boundaries. Trusting your own data is essential for personal empowerment.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Personal Reflections 04:10 Exploring the Wild Woman Archetype 06:41 The Good Girl Tax and Self-Trust 09:10 Understanding Sensory Data and Boundaries 11:34 The Importance of Congruence in Relationships 13:57 Navigating Incongruence and Self-Trust 16:54 The Role of Hypervigilance in Good Girl Conditioning 19:25 Rewilding and Emotional Awareness 21:57 The Cost of Overanalyzing Relationships 24:49 Communication Skills and Emotional Processing 26:48 The Fawn Response and Emotional Regulation 36:45 Understanding the Nervous System's Role in Overthinking 38:05 The Impact of Good Girl Conditioning 40:04 Recognizing the Mismatch Between Words and Action 43:01 The Exhaustion of Overanalyzing Relationships 45:57 The Cost of Inaction and Overanalysis 50:23 The Importance of Setting Boundaries 55:20 Navigating the Fear of Being Seen as Difficult 59:07 Practical Steps to Adjust Boundaries 01:03:14 Understanding the Nervous System's Response to Boundaries 01:06:38 Building Trust in Oneself Through Data Awareness   Stay Wild.

Rising margin pressure, regulatory demands, and fragmented operations are forcing health plans to confront a difficult question: when does maintaining the current model become more expensive than changing it? This episode examines the often-overlooked cost of inaction—where financial strain, delayed growth opportunities, and operational complexity quietly compound over time. It explores why incremental fixes and point solutions are no longer enough, and how legacy operating structures can limit scalability, responsiveness, and strategic decision-making.At the same time, a shift is underway. A new operating approach is emerging—one that redefines accountability, integrates technology and operations, and introduces predictability into cost structures.What does this shift actually look like in practice, and how can leaders recognize when they've reached the tipping point? Listen to the full episode to uncover the signals, tradeoffs, and opportunities shaping the next era of payer operations.About Our Guest: Ken Dixon works with health plans to determine their readiness to shift away from legacy operating models towards a modernized operating approach, demonstrating clear operational savings of 30-40% PMPM. 

What happens when coaching stops being polite, and starts being honest? In this episode, we dive into the moment a bold, unfiltered piece of advice went viral, and more importantly, helped a client snap out of self-sabotage and land a major contract. This conversation pulls back the curtain on what real coaching looks like when the goal isn't comfort… it's results. You'll hear why focusing on the 10% going wrong is quietly killing your momentum, and how shifting your perspective to what's actually working can change everything, fast. We also break down the true role of a coach: not just to support you, but to challenge you. To give you the perspective you can't access when you're stuck in your own emotions—and to call you forward when you're playing small. This episode goes deep into the connection between mindset, manifestation, and action. Not the fluffy version—but the kind that requires radical self-belief, discipline, and a willingness to rewire how you think about success. And if you've ever struggled to charge what you're worth or ask for more—this is your wake-up call.

"Inaction is in itself a decision." Kevin Gaskell joins Josh to discuss how to lead when the pressure doesn't let up. Drawing parallels from the military and the Apollo space missions, Kevin explains why the best leaders remain calm by becoming the "Capcom" for their team—filtering noise and focusing on a single version of the truth. Josh and Kevin explore the "5% Genius Rule," the importance of scheduling recovery time for high-performers, and why "arrogance is a terrible sin" in the boardroom. Whether you are navigating a ten-year loss or building a new startup, this episode provides a roadmap for shifting from reactive firefighting to proactive, systemic success. In this episode, you'll learn: ✅ The 5% Genius Rule: How to harness the collective "genius" of your entire team to create 100% excellence. ✅ Clarity over Numbers: Why focusing on the score (numbers) instead of the game (teamwork) leads to failure. ✅ Capcom Communication: How to reduce noise and confusion by centralizing communication during a crisis. ✅ Resilience beats Brilliance: Why long-term success depends on consistent systems rather than individual "heroes." ✅ Shadow Culture Prevention: How to ensure alignment in the room translates to action outside the room. ✅ Scheduled Recovery: Why strong leaders must force their "Type A" executives to take breaks to avoid breaking. ✅ Win or Learn: Shifting the mindset from "fear of failure" to "momentum of decision."

Et si le passage à l'action venait moins d'une prise de conscience personnelle que de notre besoin de conformisme ?Célia Poncelin, lauréate du prix Marianne du climat 2025, est réalisatrice du documentaire (IN)ACTION. Dans ce film, elle embarque sa propre famille, ses amis et des experts pour comprendre les ressorts profonds de l'inaction face à la crise climatique.Célia n'est pas née militante. Son parcours est marqué par une série de bascules : elle a grandi au pied du Vercors -une enfance au grand air, avec des parents sportifs qui l'amènent très jeune marcher en montagne. Puis elle a vécu de l'intérieur la dissonance entre ses convictions écologiques et une carrière dans la start-up nation, jusqu'au confinement pendant lequel Célia et son ami Léo remettent en question leur vie professionnelle… jusqu'à démissionner.Dès lors, la question de l'alignement devient clé. Elle s'interroge : pourquoi si peu d'entre nous bougent vraiment alors que tout le monde « sait » ? Pourquoi ne change-t-on pas de mode de vie alors que l'on connait tant de solutions et d'initiatives inspirantes ?Célia et Léo se questionnent : est-ce une question d'information ? De volonté ? Ou serait-ce la norme sociale qui nous retient ?Dans leur documentaire, ils explorent les freins à lever à travers le récit « d'une famille ordinaire face à un enjeu planétaire ». On y découvre notamment :Le poids de la norme socialeLa principale barrière à l'action n'est pas le manque d'information ni la structure du cerveau : c'est la norme sociale. Nous calons nos comportements sur ceux du groupe, auquel nous appartenons et dont nous cherchons validation. Il est nécessaire qu'un nombre critique de personnes (~25% du groupe) adopte un nouveau comportement pour que la dynamique change.La notion d'ombre carboneNotre impact va au-delà de nos gestes. Il comprend notre zone d'influence, ce que nous inspirons ou faisons bouger autour de nous, dans nos métiers, nos familles, nos communautés. Nos comportements deviennent des récits capables d'influencer notre environnement.L'importance d'agir au cœur du systèmeLe film explore différentes formes d'action, et nous montre aussi le pouvoir que l'on peut avoir en agissant “de l'intérieur," jusque dans les assemblées d'actionnaires des grands groupes pétroliers. Se mettre en mouvement à son niveauCélia nous montre qu'il ne faut pas attendre de pouvoir avoir un comportement irréprochable pour agir. A nous de bouger dès maintenant, à notre mesure, et cela commence par ouvrir la conversation avec nos proches et fréquenter des communautés engagées, qui normalisent et stimulent notre envie d'agir. La bascule collective se joue dans la somme de nos bascules individuelles.Je vous laisse avec Célia et vous souhaite une très belle écoute !ÇA VOUS A PLU ? VOUS EN VOULEZ ENCORE ?#87 - Comment passer à l'action face à la crise écologique avec Frédéric Laloux, fondateur de The Week#19 - Lucie Pinson, fondatrice de l'ONG Reclaim Finance : mettre la finance au service de la natureDemain N'attend Pas :Toutes les 2 semaines, j'échange avec des personnalités inspirantes pour questionner les récits qui façonnent notre monde, et ouvrir des pistes concrètes de futurs plus désirables.

In “2A Tuesday,” host Mark Walters joins the show to break down fast-moving developments in Virginia gun legislation, including proposed amendments to assault weapons and magazine bans pushed by state leadership. Walters discusses legal strategy surrounding potential lawsuits backed by Harmeet Dhillon and the U.S. Department of Justice, arguing that recent federal warnings could set up major Second Amendment litigation. The conversation expands into broader concerns about gun control trends in blue states such as California, New York, Maryland, and Illinois, with Walters claiming coordinated efforts to restrict firearm rights nationwide. He criticizes the pace of judicial review from the U.S. Supreme Court, referencing key cases like Heller and Bruen, and argues that delays in hearing challenges are allowing unconstitutional laws to remain in effect. The segment closes with a larger philosophical debate over self-defense rights, constitutional interpretation, and growing legal conflict between state governments and gun rights advocates.

Keenan is the founder and CEO of A Sales Guy, where he helps organizations move beyond product-driven selling and into problem-centric sales strategies. He's also the author of Gap Selling, a framework built around one powerful idea: understanding the gap between where a buyer is today and where they need to be. In this episode, Keenan and Mark Stiving unpack a truth most teams say they believe—but rarely execute: buyers don't pay for products, they pay based on the size of the problem and the cost of not solving it. If you've ever wondered why deals stall, why buyers default to "no decision," or why price suddenly becomes the issue—this conversation will challenge how you think about selling, pricing, and what actually drives someone to act.   Why You Have to Check Out Today's Podcast: Understand why buyers don't change unless the problem feels urgent enough and how to surface the real cost of inaction. Learn how gap selling uncovers the true drivers behind buying decisions by connecting root causes, problems, and impact. Discover why pricing power comes from problem size not product features and how that changes the way you sell and price.   "Value is delivered by the size of the problem—and the cost of not solving it." — Keenan   Topics Covered: 01:07 – What Gap Selling Really Means. How shifting from product pitching to problem diagnosis changes win rates, deal size, and sales outcomes 05:05 – Why Everything Starts with a Problem. The hidden truth: every buying decision is driven by a problem—whether the buyer realizes it or not 09:47 – The Different Levels of Problems in Sales. How surface-level needs hide deeper drivers—and why most salespeople stop too early 10:37 – Root Cause vs. Problem vs. Impact. A powerful framework to uncover what's really driving the need to change 13:56 – What Actually Motivates Buyers to Act. Why root causes don't trigger action—but impact does 19:30 – How Deep Should You Go in Problem Discovery? Knowing when to keep digging—and when you've found what truly matters 20:26 – A Real Example: Breaking Down Root Causes (Obesity Case). How complex problems reveal multiple layers—and why that matters in selling 25:04 – How Trust Is Built Through Problem Clarity. Why buyers trust you more when you understand their problem better than they do 27:33 – Pricing Based on the Cost of Inaction. Why price isn't about your product—it's about how painful it is not to solve the problem   Key Takeaways: "People don't change unless their current state is untenable." – Keenan "Gap Selling is a selling methodology that helps salespeople improve their win rate, shorten sales cycles, improve their average contract value and close more deals faster." – Keenan "Understanding the size of the problem of not solving it is crucial for pricing." – Keenan   People / Resources Mentioned: A Sales Guy – Keenan's company; focused on modern sales strategy Gap Selling – Framework for understanding buyer problems and driving sales Gap Prospecting – Keenan's extension of gap selling into outbound and pipeline generation Status Quo Bias – Why buyers avoid change unless impact is high   Connect with Keenan: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jimkeenan/  Website: https://salesgrowth.com/    Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

Hesitation is costing you more than failure ever will. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down a silent killer of success—the tax of inaction. Let's be real… Most people don't lose because they made the wrong move. They lose because they never made a move at all. While you're waiting for the perfect timing… The perfect strategy… The perfect conditions… The market is moving. And it's not waiting for you. In this episode, you'll learn: Why waiting is the most expensive mistake in business How hesitation quietly destroys your momentum and leverage Why fast failures are cheaper than slow indecision How taking action instantly eliminates fear and builds clarity Because time is the only asset you can never get back. And every day you wait… You're paying for it. The winners in this game don't sit on ideas. They execute. They test. They adjust. They move fast—and force the market to respond.

Featuring Walter Russell Mead, this conversation dives into one of the most dangerous questions in the world right now: what happens if Iran gets the bomb—and is it already too late to stop it?  From the real stakes behind the Strait of Hormuz to the risk of a global oil shock, nuclear proliferation across the Middle East, and the limits of deterrence, Mead breaks down why the situation is far more complex—and more urgent—than most people realize.  The discussion explores whether war with Iran is avoidable, how U.S. politics and leadership shape these decisions, and why history suggests the cost of inaction could be far higher than we think. Mead addresses several important questions:   What happens the day Iran gets a nuclear bomb? Are we already too late to stop Iran? Would a nuclear Iran trigger World War III? Could one chokepoint crash the entire global economy overnight? Is doing nothing the most dangerous option of all? Walter Russell Mead is the Ravenel B. Curry III Distinguished Fellow in Strategy and Statesmanship at Hudson Institute, the Global View Columnist at The Wall Street Journal and the Alexander Hamilton Professor of Strategy and Statecraft with the Hamilton School for Classical and Civic Education at the University of Florida. He has authored numerous books, including the widely-recognized Special Providence: American Foreign Policy and How It Changed the World. His most recent book is titled The Arc of A Covenant: The United States, Israel, and the Fate of the Jewish People.

Lisa shares how her journey through major weight loss, cosmetic procedures, and life transitions didn't just change how she looks—it completely reshaped how she shows up. Her mindset?

Capital gains taxes don't usually sound like the beginning of a collapse story—but in this episode, they are.Brett Swarts, founder of Capital Gains Tax Solutions, joins me to break down a hidden risk many investors and entrepreneurs overlook: getting trapped between tax exposure, debt, and timing. What starts as a smart growth strategy can quietly turn into a situation where selling isn't viable, holding is dangerous, and doing nothing becomes the default.We unpack the story of “Steve,” a real estate investor who built a $50M portfolio during the boom years—only to lose everything when he couldn't exit without triggering massive tax consequences. With no clear path forward, he held. The market turned. The outcome was financial collapse, bankruptcy, and personal fallout that extended far beyond money.This conversation explores why capital gains taxes often act as a psychological barrier—not just a financial one—and how that hesitation can lead to catastrophic inaction.Brett walks through the limitations of traditional tools like 1031 exchanges, especially for highly leveraged investors, and introduces alternative strategies built around installment sales and structured exits designed to create flexibility, liquidity, and time.But this episode isn't just about tax strategy. It expands into a broader conversation about capital allocation, incentives, and the systems shaping real estate, entrepreneurship, and wealth transfer over the next decade.We also go head-on into the tension between economic growth and social stability—housing shortages, regulation, capital flows, and whether current systems actually serve the people they're supposed to support.This is a conversation about decisions under pressure—what happens when the playbook stops working, and why waiting can be the most dangerous move you make.TL;DRInaction is still a decision—and often the most expensive one.Capital gains taxes can trap investors into holding risky positions.1031 exchanges don't solve for liquidity, debt, or diversification.Structured exits can create flexibility, timing, and cash flow.Debt amplifies risk when markets shift.Tax strategy is really about control—over timing, capital, and decisions.Housing and capital allocation are deeply connected.Economic incentives shape behavior more than policy intent.Memorable Lines“Inaction is still a decision.”“You don't lose everything at once—you lose your options first.”“Tax pressure doesn't just cost money—it distorts decisions.”“Liquidity is freedom. Timing is leverage.”“The system rewards movement—but punishes hesitation.”GuestBrett Swarts — Founder, Capital Gains Tax SolutionsReal estate broker turned capital gains strategist specializing in tax deferral, structured exits, and wealth transition planning.Why This MattersMost financial advice focuses on growth—how to build, scale, and maximize returns. But far fewer conversations focus on how to exit intelligently.The reality is, markets change. Liquidity disappears. Debt compounds. And tax structures can lock you into decisions you wouldn't otherwise make.For founders, operators, and investors, the real edge isn't just knowing how to win—it's knowing how to reposition before you're forced to.This episode reframes tax strategy as something bigger than compliance. It's about maintaining control when conditions shift—and avoiding the kind of forced decisions that lead to irreversible outcomes. This is a public episode.

Through raw caller stories, he champions justice for kids, parenting rooted in empathy rather than original sin tyranny, and a fearless moral reckoning to shatter the illusions protecting religious communities.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Inaction is not neutral. I know I'm capable of great things but I am too afraid to do anything I want to do because it is easier to do nothing.It feels safer to do nothing but it's not. Inaction is not neutral. Just because I can't solve every problem doesn't mean I can't solve any of them. Its easy to criticize the problems and the issues and the systems even, and blame my inaction on that - but I do have space and time and energy where many people don't and I don't use it because much of it is self centered criticism of my own perceived ability to change the problem. How many times I've said to myself something to the extent of, since I can't fix the world so I may as well give up on this tiny corner of it. And that's sad. My fear of being imperfect to myself is holding me back from everything.
