Vertical SaaS providers are integrating payments to expand revenue and reduce churn by delivering software and money movement in a single workflow. Companies such as Toast, Lightspeed Commerce, Mindbody, and ServiceTitan use embedded processing to deepen adoption and streamline onboarding. Platforms choose among referral, facilitator, or hybrid models, partnering with processors such as Stripe, Adyen, Worldpay, Fiserv, Global Payments, and PayPal Braintree, and using tools like Stripe Connect and Adyen for Platforms. Greater control can improve margins but requires capabilities in KYC, PCI DSS, fraud, and chargeback management in coordination with sponsor banks. Integrated payments improve merchant onboarding, payouts, and reconciliation, and enable features like instant payouts and installments through partners. Founders should roll out payments in phases, track attach rates and risk costs, and revisit build versus partner decisions as volume grows.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

Healing isn't always as simple as treating or praying for a symptom. Sometimes, Jesus is restoring something deeper. We need to understand that people aren't made up of disconnected and unrelated parts. We were created by God to be amazingly integrated beings. As we will discover today, God's design was fractured by sin and that is what makes His plan for salvation, restoration, and wholeness so vital. It also means before we can understand healing, we first have to understand what Jesus actually accomplished on the cross. What did He come to restore?

Have you ever felt like you were walking through quicksand every single day in your business? Like you were taking three steps forward and two steps back no matter how hard you worked? That was Tim Calise's life for years, and it might be yours right now too. In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I brought in Tim Calise for our AI Masterclass Workshop during our Happy Hustle Club meeting, and I sat down to soak up everything he's learned about scaling with artificial intelligence. Tim's path has been anything but a straight line. He started a late night snack delivery business in college, recruiting his fraternity brothers to help him hustle. From there he launched a hedge fund in his early twenties and had to give it all back right before the 2008 crash. He got into fitness and technology after that, joining Alex and Layla Hormozi at Gym Launch, where his team took the company from zero to 35 million dollars in revenue in under a year and a half, then added two more businesses worth over 50 million a year on top of that. Eventually he moved to Nashville, met his current business partner, the guy who actually created the technology behind Apple Pay, and now runs a house of brands company that spans compliance, auditability, and moving money around the world. Tim is a husband of 18 years, a father of three, and he's built a team of about 160 people around the globe that operates 24 hours a day. His company will do around 5 billion dollars in turnover this year, and they've been in business for less than 18 months. I wanted Tim on this stage because he's not talking theory. He's talking about what he is literally doing right now to run a company at this scale without burning himself out or losing time with his family. That's the whole point of the Happy Hustle. Build something big without sacrificing the people and the life that matter most. Here's what stuck with me most from his talk. AI is not just a better tool, it's a fifth form of leverage. Tim broke down the four types of leverage that have driven wealth for the past 200 years: labor, capital, code, and content. Each one takes time, money, or both to build. AI is different. It's permissionless, you don't need to ask anyone, and once you deploy it, it keeps working for you. Capacity outpacing sales is a good problem to have. Most businesses bleed money because they build out people and systems before the revenue shows up. Tim's team flipped that. They have more opportunity than people right now, and AI is what lets them architect for the future they already know is coming. His team built an agent that hunts for clients around the clock. It crawls the internet looking for nuanced signals, like specific plugins on a website, that flag a great fit client. It scores leads automatically and populates their CRM without a human touching it. One of those messages landed a call with a company doing a billion and a half dollars a year in revenue, and Tim's team didn't even know the message went out until the reply came in. The real win isn't the revenue, it's his time back. Tim was honest about the years he spent fighting an uphill battle in business, never having the right tools. Now he says his marriage is in the best spot it's ever been, and he can spend time with his kids on his own schedule instead of whatever time was left over. Humans still run the show. Even with agents doing the heavy lifting, Tim's principle is simple. The agent does the work, humans stay informed and empowered, and every exception gets handled at the people level. AI replaces busy work, not judgment. If you're building something and you feel like you're stuck in that same quicksand Tim described, this conversation is going to hit different.

Biopharmaceutical manufacturers are facing mounting pressure to scale production faster while maintaining quality and operational reliability due to the ever-expanding pipeline of therapies. Meanwhile, onshoring initiatives, increasingly complex facilities, workforce challenges, and rising demand for biologics are exposing limitations in traditional manufacturing approaches. As a result, organizations are rethinking how digital technologies, automation, and quality systems work together across the manufacturing enterprise. In this episode of Off Script, we spoke with Jim Masso, president and CEO of Honeywell Process Automation, about the operational challenges shaping the next generation of biopharma manufacturing. The conversation explores where manufacturers continue to encounter bottlenecks when scaling production, why workforce constraints and human error remain significant contributors to quality issues, and how AI-enabled process control and integrated digital quality systems can help improve reliability and accelerate facility startup. Masso emphasized the growing importance of connecting environmental controls, automation, and quality management, and stressed the organizational changes needed to fully realize the benefits of digital manufacturing.

Dr Chérine Bazzane spent years training as a family physician and teaching medicine.

Beth and I share about our newest book, Integrated Literacy for Experienced Multilinguals, on Olivia Wahl's Schoolutions Podcast. 

Andy Kvesic left the job every lawyer wants to build something the profession had never seen. As CEO of Aprio Legal, he traded a general counsel role at a thriving family office for the harder, riskier work of acquiring a Phoenix law firm and redesigning how professional services actually work. The result is a historic combination: the first time two Alternative Business Structure firms have merged, bringing together a corporate law firm and a national accounting and advisory firm backed by private equity. Attorneys, accountants, wealth planners, and business advisors now serve the same clients under one roof. The idea came from watching entrepreneurs waste time and energy bouncing between disconnected professionals who never coordinated with each other. Arizona's 2021 rule change allowing non-lawyer law firm ownership gave Kvesic the opening to try something different. His merger with Aprio wasn't a calculated exit. It was the recognition that both firms were solving the same problem from opposite ends: Aprio's professionals were constantly referring clients out for legal work, and Kvesic's attorneys were constantly referring clients out for tax and accounting. Neither could fully serve their clients alone. Building the integrated platform also forced a reckoning with how differently law firms and accounting firms run their businesses. After two decades working almost exclusively with other lawyers, Kvesic found Aprio's infrastructure to be a genuine upgrade: multi-year planning, pipeline visibility, real margin analysis. For an industry that largely runs on a cash-in, cash-out model aimed at maximizing year-end partner distributions, the difference is significant. The legal profession is changing whether it wants to or not. The more interesting question Kvesic raises is whether the people inside it will have the courage to lead that change rather than resist it.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 From General Counsel to Law Firm Owner: Andy Kvesic's Career Path 02:51 The Vision Behind Raddock's Law and the ABS Model 09:03 How Aprio Legal Became the First ABS-to-ABS Merger 14:57 Cultural Differences Between Lawyers and Accountants 24:33 How Accounting Firm Discipline Is Changing Law Firm Operations 29:35 Growth Strategy and the Integrated Legal Accounting Platform 37:52 ABS Advice and the Future of the Legal Profession   Connect with Andy Kvesic: Connect with Andy on LinkedIn   Andy Kvesic - CEO, Aprio Legal | Partner    Connect with Howard Rosenberg: Connect with Howard on LinkedIn  Howard's Company web profile   Connect with Chris Batz: Connect with Chris on LinkedIn  Follow Columbus Street on LinkedIn Columbus Street Website  MergerWatch Website Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm  

"We did this survey with a third-party consulting group who talked to 2,000 brokers. Their perception was that 25% of bills are going to be balance bills; it's actually 3%."Is Reference-Based Pricing (RBP) still something that just creates endless problems for HR?My guest this week is Jeff Bak, CEO of Imagine360. Jeff brings 30 years of healthcare and private equity experience to the table, and he's leading the charge to rebrand and evolve RBP from a defensive "pay and defend" model into a comprehensive, full-stack alternative health plan.In this episode, we tackle the persistent broker misconceptions surrounding RBP, dissecting exactly why the actual balance bill rate is closer to 3% while plan savings average over 20%. We also explore how Imagine360 blends RBP with strategic direct hospital contracts (like Baylor and Northwestern) to give employees a seamless "PPO-like" experience without the inflated PPO price tag. Jeff also breaks down the reality of the No Surprises Act (NSA) and Independent Dispute Resolution (IDR) process, and why hospitals are currently winning the majority of those arbitration cases.If you are a benefits consultant or an employer looking to truly break away from the traditional "BUCA" networks, while ensuring your employees aren't stranded with unmanageable balance bills, this conversation is the reality check you need.Thank you to our 2026 sponsors!ParetoHealth: ParetoHealth empowers midsize employers with a long-term solution to reduce volatility and lower overall health benefits costs.

In this conversation, Dr. Marc Smith shares his journey from hedge fund trading in New York's financial district to building an integrated ketamine psychiatry practice in California. After three years in finance doing trading and sales, Dr. Smith made the bold decision to completely pivot his career toward medicine, driven by a desire for purpose and meaning that his financial career couldn't provide.Dr. Smith's path took him through Columbia University for medical school, followed by psychiatry residency at USC, where he discovered his passion for interventional treatments like TMS and ketamine therapy. His unique perspective, having worked in both profit-maximizing finance and purpose-driven healthcare, provides valuable insights into the challenges of maintaining ethical medical practice in an increasingly commercialized healthcare environment.Dr. Smith's practice, Clear Ketamine + Psychiatry, represents an integrated model where he personally handles psychiatric evaluation, preparation therapy, ketamine treatment administration, and post-treatment integration sessions.What You'll Learn in This Episode· Career transition insights - How Dr. Smith navigated the complete pivot from finance to medicine, including the challenges and rewards of choosing purpose over profit in healthcare· Mental health crisis analysis - Dr. Smith's perspective on factors contributing to rising depression, anxiety, and suicide rates, including social isolation, technology impacts, and healthcare access barriers· Treatment-resistant depression understanding - Why 30% of patients don't respond to traditional antidepressants and how ketamine offers a different mechanism through NMDA receptor antagonism and neuroplasticity induction· Integrated practice model - Dr. Smith's unique approach combining psychiatric evaluation, preparation therapy, ketamine administration, and integration sessions all under one provider rather than outsourcing components· Intentions versus goals framework - How to help patients set internal emotional states they're striving for (intentions) alongside specific, measurable functional outcomes (SMART goals) for comprehensive treatment planning· Ketamine as catalyst concept - Understanding how ketamine works like "jumpstarting a car" to improve mood and motivation, while ongoing therapy and lifestyle changes provide the maintenance needed for sustained improvement· Ethical practice building - Dr. Smith's mission to combat ketamine stigma through evidence-based protocols while addressing concerns about recreational associations and inappropriate use in the field· Private practice autonomy benefits - How owning your own practice allows values-driven decisions that may conflict with profit maximization, contrasting with private equity-driven healthcare models· Business building practical advice - The importance of talking to other practice owners, understanding it's a marathon not a sprint, and knowing your limitations to outsource effectively· Biopsychosocial treatment approach - Addressing biological, psychological, and social elements of mental health through medications, therapy, exercise, sleep, nutrition, social connection, and nature exposureEpisode 58 show notes:00:00:00 - Teaser: Profit vs. Purpose in Healthcare 00:00:35 - Episode Introduction00:02:03 - Dr. Smith's Background: From East Coast to Medicine 00:02:30 - Career Transition: Three Years in Financial Industry 00:04:12 - Discovering Psychiatry Through Clinical Rotations 00:05:32 - Why Psychiatry: Deep Relationships and Human Connection00:08:50 - Tools in the Toolbox: TMS, Ketamine, and Treatment Options 00:09:30 - The Leap: Stepping Away from Finance Success 00:11:17 - The Marble Metaphor: Chiseling Away What We Aren't 00:12:46 - Self-Actualization and Gratitude in Medicine 00:14:01 - USC Residency and Academic Reception of Ketamine 00:16:54 - Evidence-Based Medicine and the Slow Pace of Change 00:19:17 - Mental Health Crisis: Social Isolation and Technology 00:22:50 - The Invisible Nature of Mental Health Challenges 00:25:28 - Private Equity vs. Patient Care: The Business Tension 00:30:18 - Private Practice Autonomy and Values-Based Decisions 00:32:15 - Clear Ketamine + Psychiatry: The Integrated Model 00:36:11 - Treatment Protocol: Six Sessions with Therapy Integration 00:37:56 - Ketamine as Jumpstart: The Car Analogy 00:42:00 - Intentions vs. Goals: Internal States and SMART Outcomes 00:46:30 - Ethical Standards and Combating Ketamine Stigma 00:50:15 - Practice Building Advice: Talk to Other Providers 00:52:55 - Rapid Fire Questions: Book Recommendation 00:54:52 - Last Meal 00:55:52 - Pickleball Obsession and the Philosophy of the Game 00:56:50 - Time Travel00:58:46 - Alternative Career01:00:04 - Advice to 20-Year-Old Self01:01:53 - Contact Information and Practice Details 01:03:03 - Final Thoughts: Gratitude and Evidence-Based Care 01:04:20 - Ending and ResourcesThanks for listeningConnect with Dr. Marc Smith at:Website: https://www.clearketapsych.comInstagram: @clearketapsych, @marcsmithmdLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/marcsmithmdGoogle Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/GCHVy8q183c7WvfLA

#252Have you ever wondered whether your tests, quizzes or assessments truly measure what your students can do with the language, or are they just looking at what students can memorize or explain about the language? In this episode we're diving into Integrated Performance Assessments, or IPAs, an effective way to assess how students are actually able to use the grammar, vocabulary and cultural understanding. An IPA assesses how students engage with the language through the interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational modes. If you've been working toward proficiency-based instruction and looking for assessments that align with those goals, this episode will help you with that.Topics in this Episode: Many teachers are moving toward proficiency-based instruction, but assessment often remains disconnected from communication goals.If our goal is communication, then assessment should provide opportunities for students to communicate.What is an Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA)? IPAs assess students through the three modes of communication: Interpretive, Interpersonal, PresentationalThe three tasks are connected rather than separate activities.Students move through a sequence that mirrors real-world communication: Receive information, Discuss information, Share informationAn IPA focuses on what students can do with language rather than how many grammar rules they can identify.Ready For Tomorrow Quick Win Course: Integrated Performance Assessments.A Few Ways We Can Work Together:Ready For Tomorrow Quick Win PD for Individual TeachersOn-Site or Virtual Workshops for Language DepartmentsSelf-Paced Program for For Language DepartmentsConnect With Me & The World Language Classroom Community:Website: wlclassrom.comInstagram:  @wlclassroomFacebook Group: World Language ClassroomFacebook:  /wlclassroomLinkedIn: Joshua CabralBluesky: /wlclassroom.bsky.sociaX (Twitter):  @wlclassroomThreads: @wlclassroomSend me a text and let me know your thoughts on this episode or the podcast.

The Future of Integrated Wellness & Leadership with Farhan Zahid What if stress isn't the real problem… but how we process it? In this powerful episode of The Hurricane H Show, we sit down with Farhan Zahid, Founder & CEO of KNKO, to explore the future of integrated wellness, leadership, and high performance. With a background spanning psychiatric nursing, corporate risk leadership, hypnotherapy, yoga, and wellness coaching, Farhan shares how modern systems often treat symptoms instead of root causes—and why true wellness requires a more connected, human-centered approach. From anxiety and burnout to nervous-system regulation and leadership clarity, this conversation dives deep into how people can perform at a high level without losing themselves in the process. #Leadership #MentalWellness #Burnout #Mindset #HumanPerformance #Wellness Luxury Private Concierge Wellness | KNKO
