Bitcoin and blockchain are reshaping money, trust, and the future of AI. In Episode 189 of the Disruption Now Podcast, Rob Richardson sits down with Andrew Burchwell, Executive Director of the Ohio Blockchain Council, to break down why blockchain matters more than ever—and why understanding it now is critical for anyone navigating the next decade of technology.This conversation dives into Bitcoin's core value as a trust engine, why blockchain is essential for the AI era, how decentralized systems empower individuals and communities, and the massive economic transformation coming to states like Ohio. Andrew shares the personal story behind his leap from a secure energy-tech career into full-time blockchain advocacy, why his faith guided the transition, and how local policy can unlock global innovation.We unpack the realities behind Bitcoin's volatility, long-term value, inflation, the S-curve of exponential tech adoption, and why blockchain should be seen as a utility—not a gamble. You'll learn how agentic AI will depend on blockchain rails for payments, how on-chain verification combats deepfakes, and why crypto is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for regions left behind by globalization.Andrew also shares why privacy matters, what people misunderstand about crypto, where regulation should (and shouldn't) go, and why the next five years will be the fastest technological pivot in human history.If you've been curious, skeptical, or overwhelmed by crypto, this is the conversation that makes it all click.What You'll Learn:Why Bitcoin is “better, faster, more secure money”How blockchain + AI together solve trust, speed, and verification gapsWhy inflation quietly erodes wealth and how Bitcoin counters itThe real difference between gambling memes vs. real digital assetsHow agentic AI will need blockchain for payments and micro-transactionsWhy Ohio is emerging as a national leader in blockchain policyHow decentralized tech can help rebuild forgotten communitiesWhere privacy, transparency, and security intersect in Web3Chapters:00:00 Welcome & Andrew's story03:15 Why he left a secure career for blockchain09:45 The meaning of Bitcoin as sound money14:20 Inflation, trust, and why blockchain matters19:30 Blockchain + AI: the critical connection26:40 Privacy, regulation & misuse: what's real33:10 Meme coins vs. real utility38:20 The next 5 years: “The Pivot”42:15 What's ahead for Ohio & cryptoQuick Q&A:Q: Why does Bitcoin matter today?A: It creates trust, speed, and financial sovereignty in a system where inflation and centralization reduce purchasing power.Q: How do AI and blockchain work together?A: AI creates speed; blockchain creates trust and verification. Together they enable secure agentic automation.Q: What do people misunderstand most about crypto?A: They confuse speculation with utility. Blockchain's long-term value is in its function, not its hype.Connect with Andrew Burchwell:Website / Organization: https://ohioblockchain.org/X (Twitter): https://x.com/AndrewBurchwellLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-burchwell-a7284994/Ohio Blockchain Council (organization page): https://ohioblockchain.org/Be a guest on the podcast or Subscribe to our newsletterAll our links  - https://linktr.ee/disruptionnow#Blockchain #Bitcoin #Web3 #aiagents Music credit:calm before storm - moñoñaband

The Real Question:Why do some people transform while others stay stuck no matter how many programs they join?The Answer:They stay when their ego tells them to run.What This Episode Reveals:Why your first instinct when transformation starts is to find fault with the containerWhat happens when you stop performing the work and start actually doing itThe moment you realize the price was never about money, it was about self worthHow scarcity shows up everywhere you refuse to receiveWhy comparing yourself to others is just avoiding your own powerWhat becomes possible when you finally ask for what you needYou'll Recognize Yourself If:You always keep one foot out the doorYou deflect compliments automaticallyYou're exhausted from doing it alone but won't ask for helpYou can see the vision but something always stops you before you claim itYou've been settling for fine when your soul is screaming for aliveWhat You'll Learn:Why resistance is information, not a stop signThe exact moment most people quit and what happens if you don'tHow to tell your channel from your fearWhat it takes to move from healing loop to healed masteryWhy wobbles are where real transformation happensLinks

There are powerful cards in Legacy.There are cards that define decks.And then there are cards that shape the entire format.In this episode of Eternal Durdles, we break down Orcish Bowmasters — not as just another strong card, but as a format-defining force that dictates how Legacy decks are built, sequenced, and played.Bowmasters doesn't counter spells.It doesn't tax mana.Instead, it punishes one of Legacy's most fundamental behaviors: drawing cards.We explore:Why draw effects become liabilities in a Bowmasters formatHow Brainstorm, Ponder, and card selection are fundamentally alteredWhy Bowmasters doesn't actually check the best Brainstorm decksHow asymmetrical hate narrows deck diversity instead of broadening itWhy slower blue and midrange decks are squeezed outHow Bowmasters incentivizes speed, redundancy, and linear strategiesWhy even decks not playing Bowmasters must still play around itThe difference between a strong card and a format dictatorWhether Bowmasters is a necessary correction — or a step toward homogenizationWhether you love Orcish Bowmasters or hate it, one thing is clear:Legacy revolves around it.Let us know in the comments — does Orcish Bowmasters improve Legacy, or make it worse?

There are moments when a conversation slows you down in the best possible way. My discussion with Brad Farris was one of those moments—a reminder that growth isn't just about doing more, faster, or harder, but about becoming the kind of leader who can sustain momentum without burning everything down in the process.Brad has spent decades working alongside agency and expert-firm owners, helping them move past the $1M–$2M ceiling and into healthier, more durable growth. What stood out to me wasn't just his experience—it was his insistence that the real work happens internally. The biggest constraint to progress, he argues, isn't strategy or systems. It's what's happening between your ears.Six Discussion PointsWhy agency growth stalls at the $1M–$2M mark—and why effort alone won't fix itThe hidden cost of hurry, speed, and “getting through the list”Why leadership is about choosing, not clearingHow inbox habits reveal whether you're managing or leadingThe role of presence, energy, and reflection in better decision-makingWhy leading yourself is the first step to leading othersThree Connection PointsAnchor Advisors – Brad's home base and advisory workBrad Farris on LinkedInHow To Transform A Single Daily Theme Into An Everyday FocusBrad's perspective reinforces something I've seen repeatedly: sustainable growth isn't about squeezing more output from yourself or your team. It's about creating the conditions where clarity, rest, and intention can do their work. This conversation is an invitation to slow down just enough to lead better.

This episode is not for beginners — and that's intentional.If you've already built something real, you have paying clients, consistent revenue, momentum, and you know seven figures is possible for you, this conversation is for you. Especially if you can feel that the next level is close, but you're not quite sure what actually needs to change to get there.In this episode, I break down what truly shifts when scaling from six to seven figures — and why this stage of growth has far less to do with doing more, and far more to do with leadership, capacity, systems, and identity.This is based on my own journey scaling from zero to six figures, six to seven, and now preparing for eight figures. If you've ever felt heavy, stretched thin, or quietly wondered whether your effort is becoming the bottleneck — this episode will bring clarity.In this episode, we cover:Why scaling from six to seven figures is not about hustling harderThe identity shift required at higher levels of businessHow effort becomes a bottleneck at multi–six figuresWhy burnout happens after success — not before itThe role of leadership, capacity, and restraint in sustainable growthHow money, payroll, and reinvestment reflect nervous system capacityWhy holding, releasing, and trusting money matters at scaleThe importance of systems, team, and operational clarityMoving from doer → owner → authority-level CEOWhy seven-figure businesses are coherent, not chaoticHow simplification and restraint become the real strategyWhat it means to lead without holding all the contextWhy refinement — not expansion — is the key to the next levelKey takeaway:Scaling to seven figures isn't about being louder, faster, or more creative on demand. It's about becoming steadier, clearer, and more precise as a leader.Work With Carly

When You Want to Scale but Don't Feel Ready (And When You Feel Ready but Your Business Isn't)If you've ever felt eager to grow but your business keeps resisting… or your business is perfectly poised for growth but you keep hesitating… you might be experiencing something I call readiness dissonance.There are two kinds of readiness:Being fully prepared, andBeing willingMany entrepreneurs only focus on the second one, willingness.But scaling requires both.In this episode, I break down why readiness often gets out of sync, what that mismatch reveals about your business and your beliefs, and how to move forward even when you don't feel 100 percent “ready.”Whether you're hitting walls in your delivery, your team, your time, your mindset, or your confidence, this conversation will show you how to identify what's actually holding you back and what needs to shift so scaling becomes possible, practical, and sustainable.In This Episode You'll Learn:The signs your willpower wants to scale but your business model can't support itThe hidden belief patterns that make you pull back just when things start workingHow to move forward when you don't feel ready without waiting for confidence to magically appearNext Steps:If you're listening to this and you're tired of guessing your way to the next level, I created a roadmap that shows you exactly how to scale to consistent hundred-thousand-dollar months with more freedom and far less stress.This is the operating system behind sustainable growth, the same structure I teach my clients to help them step out of the weeds and actually enjoy their business again.If you want it, DM me “ROADMAP” on Instagram and I'll send it to you.Explore more to help you build unshakable:Check out free trainings and tools hereConnect with Kathryn on InstagramWhere we can Connect:Follow the Podcast Follow The Unshakable Company on InstagramFollow The Unshakable Company on FacebookEnjoying the Podcast?Are you following Building Unshakable?

EPISODE SUMMARYThis episode was recorded during the roofing boom—when being busy hid bad numbers. Today, work is slower and margins are tighter. Dave explains why job costing is now the difference between surviving and disappearing, and why “gut feel” leaves contractors broke even even when they're busy.EPISODE DESCRIPTIONThis interview was recorded a few years ago when the roofing market was on fire. Phones were ringing, jobs were everywhere, and being busy hid a lot of sins.Today it's different.Jobs are harder to get. Margins are thinner. And the contractors who don't truly understand their numbers—what jobs actually make money, what crews are profitable, what their real labor cost is—those companies won't survive this market.I hear it every week:“Dave, we're working like crazy… but there's never any money in the bank.”That's not bad luck. That's no job costing.Successful contractors job cost every job. Unsuccessful ones run on gut feel—and in this market, gut feel will put you out of business.In this conversation, Dave Sullivan sits down with construction finance expert Leslie Shiner to break down the simple job costing system profitable roofers use to protect margins and make real decisions.You'll LearnWhy “gut feel” lies—and cash proves itThe real reason busy roofers still have no moneyHow to calculate true labor cost (labor burden)Paid hours vs billable hours = labor utilizationWhy labor overruns destroy profit faster than materialsHow estimate vs actual fixes bad pricingHow to see which crews and job types make moneyTwo KPIs every roofer must trackTIMESTAMPS00:00 – Why this matters now02:20 – Gut feel vs real profit06:20 – What job costing actually means10:15 – True labor cost & labor burden17:30 – Labor utilization explained24:15 – Estimate vs actual the right way30:25 – Fixing downtime & productivity36:40 – Sales to production handoff40:35 – KPIs that matter44:15 – Improving your systemRESOURCESShiner Group: https://www.shinergroup.comFree Labor Burden Calculator (on Leslie's site)LINKSWork with Dave / Mentoring: https://theroofercoach.com/mentoring/Free resources: https://theroofercoach.com/resources/Connect with Dave!Text Dave: (510) 612-1450Free Strategy CallWant to grow a more profitable roofing business?Book a free strategy call with Dave here → davesullivan.as.me/free-strategy-callFree ResourceDownload your FREE 1-Page Business Plan for Roofing Contractors → theroofercoach.com/planWatch on...

From Founder to CEO: Vijay Rajendran on The Founding Framework, Fundraising Psychology, and Building a High-Trust TeamIn this episode of Uncomplicated, I sit down with Vijay Rajendran Berkeley, trained executive coach, startup advisor, and former investor to break down what it really takes to evolve from “chief everything officer” into a true CEO.With two decades supporting founders worldwide (including leading global startup support at 500 Global and advising through GAI Ventures), Vijay has coached hundreds of entrepreneurs through the moments that make or break a company: building teams, navigating co-founder conflict, and fundraising with clarity. His new book, The Founding Framework, turns the messy reality of raising capital into a practical, repeatable process so fundraising doesn't become a never-ending distraction from building.This conversation is a masterclass for founders who want to raise smarter, lead better, and communicate in a way that creates momentum internally and with investors.We cover:The real shift founders must make to become a CEO (it's an identity, not a title)Why your first hires should create time, not consume itThe hidden distrust behind micromanagement and how to build trust without losing standardsCo-founder conflict: why most startup problems aren't technical, they're humanThe 4-part Founding Framework (and what's actually below the fundraising “iceberg”)Storytelling that makes investors remember you (hint: your customer is the hero)Investor psychology, social proof, and how momentum drives decisionsTerm sheets + cap tables explained simply for first-time foundersWhy “product-market fit” is becoming product-market evolution in an AI-driven worldKey Takeaways:Great leadership is leverage: your job shifts from doing everything to enabling everyone.Fundraising is a process, not luck, not networking, not “spray and pray.”The most memorable pitches are customer-led stories with emotional clarity.Healthy conflict is possible when communication stays high-trust and blame-free.In the AI era, speed matters but only when it buys back focus and execution.This is a grounded, tactical episode for founders, operators, and builders who want to raise capital with confidence and lead teams that actually perform.

This special episode commemorates the 60th anniversary of the groundbreaking ABC television series Batman, the pop-culture lightning bolt that turned comic books into primetime spectacle and permanently rewired how superheroes could be portrayed on screen. I share a couple of professional and personal encounters with "The Bright Knight" But, at the heart of the episode is a rare 2016 interview with the late, great Adam West, recorded not long before his passing. West reflects candidly on stepping into the cape and cowl, navigating the razor-thin line between sincerity and satire, and why playing Batman seriously—even when the world was laughing—was the key to the show's success. He discusses:How the series embraced comic-book logic without mocking itThe cultural shockwave of Batmania in the 1960sThe unexpected responsibility of becoming Batman to generations of fansWhy the role followed him for life—and why he ultimately embraced that legacyThis episode isn't just a celebration of a TV show. It's a tribute to an era, a performance, and a philosophy of heroism that proved Batman could be smart, strange, colorful, and iconic—all at the same time. Six decades later, the Bat-signal still shines. And Adam West is a big reason why.

What if you can't “think your way” out of missing him, obsessing, or feeling anxious… because your nervous system is still stuck in survival mode?If you've left (or are trying to leave) a narcissistic relationship and you still feel on-edge, numb, exhausted, or trapped in rumination, this episode will give you what you need to move forward.In this episde you will learn:Why it still feels like you're stuck after all the healing work you've doneHow to tell if you're stuck in survival mode without realizing itThe way to stop dissociating, stop over-functioning, and finally feel real freedom instead of just “holding it together.”QUICK LINKS FROM EPISODE:Ep 40: Finding Self Love & Trust in Yourself So You Can Have Healthy Relationships & Increase Your Self-Esteem With EFT Tapping https://pod.fo/e/27408eBrooke's website: lifecoachinggoddess.comBrooke's book: Shattered, Broken and BeatutifulAbout Brooke Deanne:Meet Brooke Deanne — a phoenix in heels and a force of healing fire.

Today's Sponsor: ToyBox 3D Printers In today's episode, we talk about wine, anesthesia, and the quiet ways men numb pain instead of feeling it.As Jesus was led to the cross, He was offered wine to dull the pain. He refused it. Not because the pain didn't matter — but because He chose to fully feel the weight He was carrying.Many men don't explode emotionally.They disappear.Instead of anger, they feel numb.Instead of emotion, they feel distance.Instead of presence, they reach for distraction.Scrolling.Drinking.Porn.Overworking.Anything that keeps the feelings at bay.In this episode, we explore what it looks like to stop numbing and start feeling again — not all at once, not perfectly, but honestly. Because when you begin to feel, you begin to heal. And healed men become present men.In This Episode:Why emotional numbness is just as serious as emotional blowupsThe overlooked moment when Jesus refused wine on the way to the crossHow men practice “avoidant coping” without realizing itThe cost of numbing out on marriage, fatherhood, and presenceA simple one-minute practice to begin feeling againToday's One-Minute Practice:Instead of asking, “What am I feeling?”Ask this:“What am I avoiding feeling today?”Sit with it.Name it.Don't numb it.You don't need to fix everything.You just need to stay present.Strong families begin with healed men.

What if the reason your podcast isn't converting has nothing to do with consistency, downloads, or your CTA… and everything to do with belief?In today's episode, I'm interviewing my client, Patricia Ortega, host of the Uncommon Career Podcast, and sharing a behind-the-scenes look at what changed when her podcast stopped feeling heavy, awkward, and salesy — and started generating consistent sales calls.Patricia didn't need more tactics. She didn't need another social media strategy or a new funnel. What she needed was clarity — in her messaging, her structure, and the belief journey she was guiding her listeners through.In this conversation, you'll hear:Why “just get on the mic and talk” is not a strategyHow structure unlocks creativity instead of stifling itThe mindset shift that made selling feel like service instead of sleazeWhy a podcast can become your primary lead generator when social media feels soul-suckingWhat changes when your episodes stop being fluffy and start being intentionalYou'll also hear Patricia share what she can't unsee now that she understands how belief-based podcasting works — and why her show finally feels fun, aligned, and effective again.If you've ever thought:“I don't want to sound salesy”“My podcast is good, but it's not converting”“I don't want to depend on social media to get clients”…this episode will hit home.Listen not just for what's said, but for how belief, structure, and authority are modeled throughout the conversation.

AI is everywhere right now, but most of what you see is noise: silly videos, ChatGPT-generated captions that scream "a robot wrote this," or tech bros flexing workflows that have zero real-world application for service businesses. So when I found Sam Howell, I knew she was different.Sam Howell, also known as AI with Sam, is an AI strategist and CEO of Intevo AI who teaches entrepreneurs how to replace up to 70% of their busywork with AI. No coding or tech background required. She's spoken on over 150 stages, she's a mom of two, and she built her business around creating genuine freedom, not just tech tricks. She'll be delivering a keynote at the Mobile Bev. Pros Conference in February, and this episode gives you a sneak peek of what's to come.In this conversation, we cut through the AI hype and get into what actually matters: how AI can take tasks off your plate that you're not even doing right now because you don't have the time, the budget, or the bandwidth. We're talking lead-to-speed response, intelligent DM automation, content systems, and the crucial balance between automation and authenticity.In this episode, you'll hear:Why the "AI bro" approach to automation (think: banana-gorilla videos) is useless for service businessesWhat AI "employees" actually are and how they're different from basic chatbotsThe five buckets of your time that AI can take over (without replacing your human touch)How lead-to-speed can make or break your bookings and why AI helps you respond firstThe ManyChat vs. intelligent conversational AI difference (and why it converts 30-40% better)Why Sam owns it when people ask "is this AI?" and how that builds trust instead of breaking itThe line between delegating to AI and losing your magic, and how to avoid "flat brand" syndromeWhy your voice, face, and relationships still matter more than ever in an AI worldWhat to expect from Sam's keynote: the 5 AI employees every business should haveResources & Links:Connect with Sam: Website: https://aiwithsam.comInstagram: @aiwithsamGet tickets for the Mobile Bev.

Let's talk about the thing I didn't even realize was happening until it had already messed with my head: AI was quietly killing my creativity. If you've ever opened your laptop, told yourself you're “just getting a little AI help,” and then suddenly noticed your ideas feel watered down, your content feels off, and you're second-guessing everything—you're not alone. When I posted about this on Instagram, you confirmed that this little creep has been slipping into your business too… and not in the cute, helpful way we hoped.So today, I'm getting brutally honest about how AI slowly started impacting my creativity, confidence, workflow, and even the way I approached this podcast. This episode is your reminder that your most valuable business asset is your brain—your original ideas—not a robot's outline telling you how you should create.In this episode, you'll hear…How AI slowly crept into my creative process without me realizing itThe dangerous shift from “this helps” → “this must know better than me”How AI's feedback made me doubt my instincts and dry up my idea wellThe moment I realized AI was contributing to a huge creativity blockWhat happened when I quit using AI for outlines, brainstorming, and feedbackThe difference between using AI as a repurposing tool vs. as a creatorThe creative habits and practices I'm returning to in 2026How to rebuild your originality in a world obsessed with shortcutsClick here to find the full show notes and transcript for this episode.RESOURCES:Get Sam's free weekly newsletter, Sam's SidebarSubscribe to Sam's Substack Beyond Business Get Sam's book "When I Start My Business, I'll Be Happy"My Instagram Reel on quitting ChatGPTListen to Episode 140.

The NYE Lollapalooza is not about predictions or resolutions. It's about reflection, responsibility, and deciding—consciously—who you are becoming as the calendar turns.In Episode 1, Jay Doran opens the day alongside longtime collaborator and co-host Mike Calhoun for a wide-ranging, deeply philosophical conversation on growth, transformation, and personal ownership.They explore the idea that life can only be understood backward, but must be lived forward—and why a new year isn't a clean slate, but another shot to do it better. Through metaphors of fire, light, proximity, and chemical reactions, Jay and Mike unpack why some people ignite when placed in the right environments, while others remain “duds,” even when all the ingredients for growth are present.This episode dives into:Why real growth requires intensity, friction, and self-confrontationHow proximity to the right people creates transformation—if your mindset allows itThe danger of carrying old habits into a new year unchangedWhy repetition, practice, and responsibility are required to “grow your knife”The difference between collecting wisdom and actually activating itJay reflects on his word for the year shifting from Intensity to Love, framing love as “intensity externalized”—the act of caring deeply about the existence of another. Mike shares his own evolution from Recalibration to a defining word for the coming year: Different, underscoring the truth that better outcomes require different actions—and the strength to break old patterns.This episode sets the tone for the entire NYE Lollapalooza series:Think clearly. Take ownership. Be strong. Be different.And don't just sit in the room—leave it changed.

An atheist looks you in the eye and says, “There's just no evidence for God.” What do you say? In this episode, Joel Settecase exposes the “apologetics cycle of doom” and shows you a better way to answer the skeptic who keeps demanding “more evidence” but never seems satisfied. Instead of chasing objections forever, you'll learn how to flip the script using presuppositional apologetics, uncover the atheist's hidden assumptions, and bring the conversation back to the cross of Jesus Christ, where real transformation happens. If you're a Christian man who wants to lead your family, stand firm in a hostile culture, and give confident answers when atheists push back, this episode is your playbook.You'll learn:What the “apologetics cycle of doom” is—and how to break out of itThe one question you must ask first: “What do you mean by evidence?”Why atheism has a logic problem, a mind problem, and a world problemHow the atheist is trusting laws of logic, the human mind, and the orderliness of the world that his worldview can't explainHow Christianity uniquely grounds evidence, science, and rationalityA simple way to pivot from philosophy back to the gospel of Jesus ChristPartner with The Think Institute: Help us equip more Christian men to build a worldview legacy in their homes, churches, and communities.

What if the real differentiator between thriving franchise brands and struggling ones comes down to two simple traits: humility and hunger?In this episode, Adam Contos, a high-performance leadership expert, former CEO of RE/MAX, and a leading voice in the franchise industry joins us for a conversation that cuts through the noise and gets to the heart of what truly drives franchise success. From his early days in the Marine Corps reserves and law enforcement to leading one of the most recognized franchise brands in the world, Adam brings the kind of clarity leaders desperately need right now.Adam breaks down why risk-taking is non-negotiable, how leaders unknowingly sabotage progress, and why decision-making, not perfection, is the real engine of growth. He also shares what most franchisors get wrong when communicating with their networks, how to build A-player teams, and why visibility isn't optional if you want your franchisees to trust you. This is leadership without fluff: direct, grounded, and immediately applicable.Whether you're scaling an emerging brand, rebuilding systems, or trying to develop stronger leaders inside your organization, this episode gives you a clear look at the habits, decisions, and mindset shifts that actually move a franchise system forward. You'll walk away with a sharper mindset, clearer priorities, and a better understanding of what leadership actually requires.Connect with Adam:Website: https://www.adamcontos.com/Franchise Membership Community: https://yourfranchisegroup.com/Episode Highlights:Why risk tolerance separates winning brands from stagnant onesThe biggest leadership blind spots founders don't see comingAdam's simple 3–2–1 decision-making frameworkWhat “founder syndrome” looks like inside a franchise systemHow visibility builds trust at scaleWhy tech adoption is always a challenge and what to do about itThe real job of a franchisor (according to Adam)When and how to upgrade talent without guiltWhy humility accelerates leadership growthHow to develop leaders who can replace youConnect with Tracy Personal LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-panase/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale JBF Franchise System - https://jbfsalefranchise.com/ Email: podcast@jbfsale.com Connect with Shannon Personal LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonwilburn/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale Website - https://shineexecutivecoaching.com/ Email - shannon@shineexecutivecoaching.com

Mental toughness is more than just pushing harder or suffering more.It's about learning how to believe in yourself when things get uncomfortable — and knowing how to respond when they do.In this episode, Hillary Allen joins the show to break down what self-belief and mental toughness actually look like for ultrarunners, and why so many athletes struggle to build them in a sustainable way.With a background in neuroscience, exercise physiology, and mental performance — plus years of experience competing at the highest level of mountain running — Hillary shares a powerful framework for developing confidence, resilience, and awareness that goes far beyond motivation or grit.This conversation is for ultrarunners who want to perform better without burning out, and who want their mindset to be an asset — not a limiter — in training and racing.In this episode, we explore:Why mental toughness is a trainable skill, not a personality traitHow self-belief quietly erodes — and how to rebuild itThe difference between pushing through discomfort and sabotaging progressThe hidden mindset mistake that drains motivation over timeWhy rest and recovery are psychological skills, not just physical onesHow identity impacts performance more than most runners realizeWhat elite ultrarunners do differently when confidence is shakenIf you've ever questioned your toughness, struggled with motivation, or felt disconnected from your “why,” this episode will give you a new lens on what it really means to endure better.About Hillary AllenHillary Allen is a world-class trail and skyrunning athlete, U.S. Skyrunning Series champion, multiple-time course record holder, and Team USA medalist. She holds a master's degree in neuroscience and physiology, is currently studying sports psychology, and is the author of Out and Back, one of the most influential books in endurance sports. Hillary is also a mental performance coach who helps athletes build resilience, confidence, and long-term sustainability in sport and life.SHOW LINKS:Register for our race, The Desert Peak Ultra 100K + 50K at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠desertpeakultra.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Want to work with me to crush your next ultramarathon in our group coaching program?

This episode of PR After Hours is all about storytelling, not the soft, hand-wavy kind, but the kind that actually works.My guest is Tom Mulligan, longtime PR After Hours favorite and a sharp thinker on how stories drive persuasion, especially in sales, marketing, and leadership. We dig into what it really means to flip the script when you're trying to engage an audience, whether that audience is a client, a boardroom, or a reader.We talk about why every good story needs a clear ending, not just a strong opening, and how too many pitches fall apart because the storyteller hasn't decided where they're going. Tom pulls examples from books, real-world sales conversations, and his own writing to show how structure creates confidence.We also get into AI, specifically its role as an editor rather than a creator. If you want honesty, Claude will give it to you, mercilessly. We discuss why AI works best as an additive tool, helping sharpen structure, expose weak spots, and force clarity, rather than pretending it can replace judgment or voice.Along the way, we cover:Why storytelling is a sales skill, not a creative indulgenceHow knowing the ending changes everything that comes before itThe difference between subtractive and additive storytellingWhat AI does well, what it does badly, and why it doesn't care about your feelingsHow to use structure as a form of respect for your audienceAnd because it's the season, Tom's short story “Dusty Boxes”, which is destined to be a Christmas classic, is available to read here:https://substack.com/home/post/p-181930222Smart, practical, and just opinionated enough to be useful, this is an episode for anyone who tells stories for a living, or needs to get better at it fast.Pour a drink.

In this episode we'll talk about:Why blessings often arrive before we “feel ready”How God uses responsibility, not rehearsal, to strengthen usWhy growth inside the blessing looks different from preparation before itThe emotional and spiritual stretch that comes with answered prayersLearning to sustain what you once only hoped forWhy capacity is formed through practice, not projectionsand more.
