In this episode, I explore why failure is not something to hide, but something to study, share, and even celebrate. Drawing inspiration from the “Flops” exhibition at the Musée des Arts et Métiers, I look at how psychology, religion, science, and art all reveal the same truth: my mistakes are often the very things that shape my character, deepen my relationships, and point me toward a more meaningful life.Why failed products like BIC for Her and New Coke can teach us about resilienceThe psychology of growth mindset, self-compassion, and learning from mistakesHow traditions like Kintsugi and teshuvah honor repair over perfectionStories of famous failures from Thomas Edison to J.K.

On this episode of CFO at Home, Vince talks with David Nassief, who went from being fired and nearly broke at 63, to achieving a seven-figure net worth by 69. David explains how decades of procrastination, market timing, and inconsistent 401(k) contributions left him unprepared, then describes how he rebuilt by turning off financial ·noise,· studying extensively, and creating a one-page ·Wealth Compass· with nine trail markers and five North Star principles, to stay focused and avoid shiny-object mistakes. David discusses how he attributes his results to investing a large portion of income monthly, using low-cost index funds, and taking advantage of market volatility to buy more when markets fell. They also discuss the destructive impact of fees, skepticism of market forecasts, the challenge of getting back in the market after timing exits, and David·s key tips: get out of debt, follow the money, and prioritize self-education.

AI doomsdayers want us to believe mass job loss would be unprecedented. But Kathryn Anne Edwards has a sharp reminder: In the first five weeks of the pandemic, the U.S. economy shed 22.5 million jobs—larger than any single AI job-loss estimate she has seen. The difference was policy. Unemployment support, direct cash to families, and a strong public response helped workers survive the shock and helped the labor market recover. This week, Nick and Paul talk with Edwards about what the pandemic recovery can teach us about AI, automation, unemployment, and the future of work. Why do AI debates so often treat workers as passive victims and government as irrelevant? What would a serious policy response to technological disruption look like? And why should we be skeptical of billionaires and tech leaders who insist that this time, unlike every other economic transition, they are uniquely important and special? Kathryn Anne Edwards is a labor economist, independent policy consultant, Bloomberg Opinion columnist, economics influencer, and co-host of the Optimist Economy podcast.  Social Media: Instagram Threads TikTok  Bluesky  Twitter Further reading:  Optimist Economy Podcast Bloomberg Opinion - AI Can Lead to a Fix of This Broken Government Program Bloomberg Opinion - Is AI Coming for Your Job?

What if losing your job isn't the end of your career story, but the beginning of a more intentional one? In this episode, Dean Newlund and Steve Jaffe explore how layoffs can become powerful opportunities for resilience, self-discovery, and reinvention.   In this episode, Dean Newlund and Steve Jaffe discuss: Why layoffs often mirror the stages of grief and emotional recovery The myth of meritocracy and why high performers can still lose their jobs How job loss challenges identity, purpose, and self-worth Building resilience through adversity, failure, and life transitions How to approach career pivots, transferable skills, and industry disruption   Key Takeaways: Layoffs often trigger a grief process that includes denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance, reconstruction, and renewal. Losing a job can force valuable self-reflection about identity, values, priorities, and long-term career direction. Resilience is built through adversity, and setbacks often create the coping skills needed for future success. Letting go of shame and self-blame allows people to move forward more effectively after job loss. Professionals can reduce future career risk by developing transferable skills, adapting to industry shifts, and staying aware of emerging trends.   "Instead of looking backwards, you look forward.” — Steve Jaffe   About Steve Jaffe: Steve Jaffe is the author of The Layoff Journey From Dismissal to Discovery: Navigating the Stages of Grief After Job Loss and a four-time layoff survivor. Drawing on his own experiences and a 25-year career in advertising and marketing, including work on the iconic “What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas” campaign, he helps readers navigate job loss through the stages of grief, rebuild confidence, and move forward with clarity and resilience. He holds a degree in journalism and communication from San Diego State University.   Connect with Steve Jaffe:   Website: https://thestevejaffe.com/ Substack: https://stevejaffe.substack.com/ Book: The Layoff Journey From Dismissal to Discovery: https://www.amazon.com/Layoff-Journey-Dismissal-Discovery-Navigating/dp/B0DXSDCQPY LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaffesteve/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stevejaffethelayoffjourney/       See Dean's TedTalk “Why Business Needs Intuition” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEq9IYvgV7I Connect with Dean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgqRK8GC8jBIFYPmECUCMkwWebsite: https://www.mfileadership.com/The Mission Statement E-Newsletter: https://www.mfileadership.com/blog/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deannewlund/X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/deannewlundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MissionFacilitators/Email: dean.newlund@mfileadership.comPhone: 1-800-926-7370 Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

What happens when you've done everything right on paper but still feel disconnected, restless, and not enough? In this coaching session, I sit down with Sean as he opens up about addiction, childhood emotional neglect, self-worth, and the internal pressure that followed him into adulthood. Together, we explore how becoming a father can surface old wounds, why self-criticism often disguises itself as discipline, and what it looks like to start building trust and safety from the inside out.

When a hard drive crashes, people will spend thousands—or even hundreds of thousands—of dollars to recover what they thought was lost. In this episode, I explore what data recovery can teach us about resilience, meaning, and suicide prevention.In this episode, I discuss:Why we often don't realize the value of something until it's goneHow our bodies, relationships, and memories are more fragile than we thinkThe surprising parallels between data recovery specialists and suicide hotline counselorsHow a single grain of dust—or a single thought—can cause outsized damageWhy emotional crises are often about imbalance rather than total failureThe idea that the story we create from loss may be more valuable than what we lostArticle referenced: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2026/04/27/when-your-digital-life-vanishesThrive With Leo Coaching: If you want to reduce your psychological pain, regain your purpose and forge your own path, go to www.thrivewithleo.com to begin your journey.If you or anyone you know is considering suicide or self-harm, or is anxious, depressed, upset, or needs to talk, there are people who want to help:In the US: Crisis Text Line: Text CRISIS to 741741 for free, confidential crisis counseling.

They stole the lake once. The public took it back. Now the same fight is happening again, except the resource is not water. It is human creativity, labor, memory, code, books, art, and thought.This episode argues that the AI economy is being built from a public commons, then converted into private ownership before anyone names the theft. The legal answer may already exist: the public trust doctrine, the same doctrine behind Illinois Central Railroad v. Illinois, where the Supreme Court said some resources cannot be sold off to corporations because they are held for the people.This is not an anti-AI episode. It is an anti-enclosure episode. The question is not whether the machines work. The question is who owns what they make, who benefits from the wealth they generate, and whether the public gets cut out of the economy built from its own mind.

June 10, 2026: Palantir CEO Alex Karp is warning tech leaders that bragging about AI-driven layoffs is a major political mistake and could fuel backlash against the entire industry. Then I get into a new Reuters/Ipsos poll showing that 53% of Americans fear AI could put them or someone in their household out of work, which means AI job anxiety is no longer a fringe concern. Finally, I break down the "great flattening," with new data showing that 41% of employees say their companies trimmed management layers last year, and why eliminating too much middle management could create a serious leadership pipeline problem for the future.

Send us Fan MailOne unexpected phone call can change everything.Sarah White thought she had stability as a restaurant partner. Then she learned her partners had voted without her, planned to sell the business, and were eliminating her role. Instead of scrambling to find her next job, Sarah made a bold mid-career move. She bought them out and took ownership of Westover Taco in Arlington, Virginia.In this episode of The Mid-Career GPS Podcast, I talk with Sarah about what career resilience really looks like when your professional life gets messy. Her story is not just about restaurant ownership. It is about confidence, relationships, decision-making, and building a plan before you need one.Sarah shares the behind-the-scenes reality of running a neighborhood restaurant in a challenging post-COVID economy, including rising food costs, staffing challenges, permits, zoning, licensing, tariffs, and changing wage rules. She also explains the misunderstood reality of tipped wages and how policy changes can affect service, retention, and the customer experience.We also explore how Westover Taco became a women's sports bar almost by accident. What started as Sarah's love of women's sports turned into something bigger: a community gathering place where fans knew the game would be on and where girls could see representation, possibility, and belonging.This conversation is a powerful reminder for mid-career professionals who feel stuck, blindsided, or unsure about their next move. You do not have to wait for disruption to start building your next chapter.In This Episode, You'll Learn:How Sarah responded after being pushed out of a restaurant partnershipWhy ownership became the right move to protect her staff and visionWhat mid-career professionals can learn from business uncertaintyHow relationships and networking helped Sarah move quicklyWhy being “people rich” can create more career optionsHow introverts can build stronger professional relationshipsWhy women's sports representation matters in business and communityHow to start building your career pivot plan before you need itKey TakeawayCareer resilience is not built in the crisis. It is built before the crisis happens. Whether you are navigating a job search, preparing for a promotion, or questioning what is next, your relationships, reputation, and readiness matter.Listen NowIf you have ever felt blindsided, stuck, or uncertain about your next career move, this episode will help you think differently about ownership, resilience, and building a network before you need one.Follow Sarah White on LinkedIn.Follow Westover Taco on Instagram.Support the showIf this episode resonated with you and you want more support in how you SHOW UP for your career and life, I want to invite you to join the SHOW UP Leadership Lab. This is my group membership program where you'll get the clarity and support you need to SHOW UP more impactfully and effectively in your life and career. Visit https://johnneral.com/showup to join. Please leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts here.Connect with John on LinkedIn here.Get John's New Mid-Career Journal on Amazon here.  Follow John on Instagram @johnneralcoaching.

We’re at a time where the progression of autonomous vehicles and AI-powered logistics systems has never been higher. While innovative technology can certainly be a good thing, some are concerned about potential job loss and adequate regulations. The International Brotherhood of Teamsters is making the fight against AI job loss and unchecked automation a top priority and Boston native and Teamsters General President Sean O’Brien is leading that charge. The Teamsters are pressing Beacon Hill lawmakers to pass legislation requiring trained human operators in all commercial vehicles operating on Massachusetts roads.

What happens when the career you worked so hard to build suddenly feels uncertain? In this episode, I'm talking about the fear, overwhelm, and identity spiral so many working moms are experiencing right now as AI rapidly changes industries and job security.

THE COMEBACK ECONOMY | How to Monetize Your Story When the Market Drops YoThe market crashed. Your story didn't."If you've been laid off, passed over, displaced by AI, or just feel like the economy left you behind — this episode was made for you.We are living through the most disorienting economic shift of our generation. Mass layoffs. AI replacing entire departments. The traditional career path collapsing in real time. And millions of people are sitting at home wondering — what do I do now?Here's what nobody is telling you:Every major economic downturn in history has created a new class of self-made people. The 2008 recession birthed Uber, Airbnb, and Instagram. The Great Depression built some of the most resilient entrepreneurs America has ever seen. And THIS moment — right now — is doing the same thing.The people who win in a down economy are not the ones with the most credentials.They are the ones who learned how to turn their story into their most valuable asset.And that is exactly what we break down today.In this episode you'll learn:

In this episode, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive deep into how AI is transforming business and coaching, what it really means for job security, the art of structuring irresistible offers, and why changing your environment might be the ultimate life hack. With their usual candid banter, they break down high-level strategies—from AI optimism and creative sales terms to the personal value of being okay with rejection. Key Topics Covered The Future of AI and Employment Karl Bryan and Rode Dog debate if AI will steal jobs or create more opportunity, drawing parallels with previous tech revolutions like the internet and the tractor. Historical lens: AI's current economic "instruments" indicate growth and the doubling of new businesses, not disruption. The real trick? Use AI as "gasoline" to turbocharge your business, not as the vehicle itself. Structuring Irresistible Offers & Terms How creative offer structuring—like free trials, installment payments, third-party financing, and delayed commitments—outperforms just negotiating on price. Karl Bryan shares real-life examples from selling his car to structuring coaching programs, highlighting how adjusting terms can close more deals with less friction and more satisfaction. Delayed gratification and being okay with "no" are ultimate business "superpowers." Business and Life Hacks The critical hack: Be comfortable hearing "no"—it's a precondition for major financial success. The underrated power of changing your environment, whether it's moving, joining new groups, or varying your routines—impacting both mental health and business growth. Zen and the Art of Business Coaching Why happiness is fleeting and peace/contentment should be the target. Powerful reframing: "No is a decision, yes is a responsibility." Notable Quotes "AI is gasoline. It's not the car. It's turbo. It's not the accelerator." – Karl Bryan "Be okay with no. Introduce me to a person who's made a ton of money and I'll introduce you to someone that's heard 'no' 2,000 times and counting." – Karl Bryan "Change of environment is a hack on steroids. You can always turn around and come back—but even a small change can be wildly impactful." – Karl Bryan "Happiness is that feeling you get right before you need more happiness." (Don Draper, quoted by Karl Bryan) Actionable Takeaways Leverage AI, Don't Fear It: See AI as an accelerator—use it to enhance what you're already doing instead of worrying about being replaced. Structure Creative Offers: Experiment with free trials, installment plans, reservation options, and third-party financing to make your programs irresistible and reduce buyer resistance. Get Comfortable with Rejection: Make peace with "no"—the most successful people have embraced it, and it's almost always a sign you're pushing boundaries and growing. Change Your Environment: Both big moves and small changes (joining a new club, going to a new event, changing your routine) can have a powerful impact on creativity, mental health, and opportunity. Focus on Peace, Not Just Happiness: Understand that lasting success comes from contentment and peace, not chasing fleeting moments of happiness. Set your goals accordingly.

In “Kim on a Whim,” the crew breaks down the sudden shutdown of Spirit Airlines, which left thousands of travelers stranded mid-trip and scrambling for expensive last-minute flights on competitors like United Airlines. Kim argues against a government bailout despite the chaos, while Marc counters that federal intervention previously blocked a potential lifeline merger with JetBlue Airways—a decision he says helped seal Spirit's fate. They highlight the broader fallout, including roughly 17,000 lost jobs and emotional reactions from airline staff, while debating whether rising fuel costs or long-term instability were truly to blame. The segment also takes aim at the ultra-budget airline model, arguing that stripped-down pricing and constant add-on fees created both customer frustration and operational vulnerability long before the final collapse.

Ian McArdle, CWU Deputy General Secretary, discusses the threat of over 700 redundancies at a firm that provides services to Meta.

Marcus Aurelius Anderson sits down with technology entrepreneur and AI strategist Stephen Scott for a candid, practical conversation about artificial intelligence and how everyday people can use it to improve their lives. Rather than approaching AI as a threat, Stephen reframes it as a personal force multiplier — one that can help anyone navigate job searches, manage finances, optimize health, and make better decisions. The conversation covers the emotional anxiety surrounding AI, the coming digital divide, deepfake security threats, and why the best time to start engaging with AI is right now. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: Use AI to Future-Proof Your Career — 7:22AI doesn't take jobs — people who know how to use AI replace those who don't. Stephen breaks down a practical step-by-step method for using AI to build a custom resume and cover letter optimized to beat Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) and land more interviews. Build Personal AI "Folders" for Every Area of Life — 14:09Stephen shares how he uploads personal health records, financial statements, and life goals into AI platforms to get highly personalized guidance — essentially putting the world's most knowledgeable advisor on call 24/7 for your health, finances, and relationships.
