Peter Jones, who heads up Revenue at Premion, returns to Insider Interviews (see Ep 38) to educate us on the shifts in local TV advertising in a streaming-first world -- and how small businesses can compete with national brands, with greater access to sports inventory, and why measurement actually matters! Learn what "context" really means for advertisers (spoiler: consumers don't experience media in silos), how the collapse of some Regional Sports Networks has created opportunities for local advertisers, and why "smart curation" is more than an industry buzzword. But it's not just the small business that needs to adapt: it's agencies and brands, too. Peter breaks down what full-funnel capabilities now available to SMBs—from maxing out brand awareness across Premion's 210 DMAs, to measurable sales transactions, tapping 1st and 3rd party data.  And, as we gear up for playoff sports, he reminds us how technology has leveled the playing field and that local advertisers can get in the game, too! So, sports puns are pervasive in Episode 44 since part of our conversation is about Premion's new(ish) programmatic options to enable more inventory for all in live sports. Talk about a “game changer...!” Understand how local car dealerships and furniture stores can now leverage the same targeting, data, and attribution tools that Fortune 500 companies use, all while reaching their specific communities with precision. But for everyone, it's key to understand the importance of creative in driving outcomes, and omnichannel strategies (because yes, we're all scrolling during halftime), and why advertisers need to embrace data-driven decisions over personal platform preferences. "The first thing to realize is that big tech has leveled the playing field for local advertisers..." Whether you're a media buyer, agency leader, or local business owner trying to navigate the CTV landscape, this conversation delivers practical guidance on inventory, data, and measurement—the three pillars every advertiser should evaluate when choosing a CTV partner. Bottom line? The local advertising opportunity in streaming TV has never been bigger—but only for those willing to adapt, measure outcomes over impressions, and follow consumers wherever they are. Key Highlights [01:15] CTV's double-digit growth, challenges and opportunities for advertisers [02:14] What Premion does – Nine years of helping local advertisers navigate CTV [03:33] Leveling the playing field – Educating SMBs on using the same tools as national brands [05:25] Challenges and Strategies for Outcomes in Omnichannel Advertising [08:26] Tools and tactics – First-party data, pixels, attribution, and what SMBs need to track [10:48] The role of creative – Sequential messaging, AI tools, and "message to market match" [12:52] How Premion's programmatic access to sports inventory is opening doors for local advertisers [15:39] Smart Curation Explained and Full Funnel Options in 200+ markets [20:22] The dynamic nature of live sports – Why planning can be tricky but opportunity is massive [21:45] What to look for in a CTV partner – Hint: Inventory, data, measurement (plus the TAG seal of approval!)

Cherry and Jackie Cummings Koski stress that honest, ongoing conversations about money, before and during life transitions, are non-negotiable. Building shared financial goals, scheduling regular money meetings, and understanding differences in financial background ("money genealogy") help partners maintain unity and autonomy. "If you agree that the household is the mission, you can better understand each other's paths," emphasizes Preston D. Cherry. 2. Preparing for a Career Pivot Means More Than the Numbers Mariko Gordon explains that major changes like launching a business demand both runway and emotional readiness. She highlights the importance of clarity around your cash flow, having a contingency plan, and not feeling like a failure if you need to pause or pivot, "sometimes you don't have to commit financial scorched earth devastation." Jacqueline "JaQ" Campbell adds that curating a personal board of directors and mentors is just as critical as financial systems. 3. Multi-Generational Support Requires Boundaries and Education For those "sandwiched" between supporting children and aging parents, Jacqueline "JaQ" Campbell and Jackie Cummings Koski agree that prioritizing your own retirement and empowering others through financial literacy are keys to sustainable support. Rather than being an ATM, strive to be your parents' and children's CFO: educate, plan, and let loved ones learn through their own financial decisions. 4. Navigating Solo Transitions: Give Yourself Grace Loss and divorce are as much emotional events as financial ones. Jackie Cummings Koski and Jacqueline "JaQ" Campbell underline the necessity of seeking support, taking time to process grief, and acting strategically, updating financial documents, gathering your advisory team, and setting new goals. Preston D. Cherry shares, "Allow yourself the space to heal… you don't need permission to take it for yourself." Call-to-Action Pick one transition, current or upcoming, and write down the single next financial action that would bring you more stability. This week, take that first step, whether it's organizing documents, reviewing beneficiaries, or scheduling a money conversation. Progress starts with one action!

Speaker: Rob BerrethScripture: Hebrews 13:7-19Episode Overview:In this sermon from Hebrews 13:7–19, we explore how God calls His people to relate to spiritual authority within the local church. Scripture paints a vision of leadership rooted in faithful teaching, Christlike character, and vigilant care for souls. At the same time, believers are invited to remember, imitate, obey, and pray for those who shepherd them. This passage offers a deeply biblical, countercultural picture of joyful leadership and joyful followership—one that flows from the grace and supremacy of Christ. Join us as we walk through three movements in the text: remembering and imitating godly pastors, obeying and yielding to spiritual leadership, and praying earnestly for those entrusted with watching over the church.Key Highlights:1. Remember and Imitate Your Pastors (Heb 13:7)• Godly leaders are marked first by speaking the Word of God faithfully.• Their way of life confirms the truth they teach as they strive to model mature Christian character.• Believers are called to consider and continually reflect on the outcome of their leaders' lives and to imitate their faith—not because leaders are perfect, but because they point to Christ.• Imitation is not blind allegiance; Christ alone is the One we follow.2. Obey and Submit to Your Leaders (Heb 13:17)• The command to obey is tied to being persuaded by biblical teaching, not to unquestioning compliance.• Submission describes a posture of willing cooperation rather than stubborn resistance.• Scripture provides limits to pastoral authority; leaders may only require what God Himself commands.• Healthy church life happens when pastors joyfully lead and believers joyfully respond.3. Pray Earnestly for Your Leaders (Heb 13:18–19)• Pastors “keep watch over souls” and will “give an account”—a weighty and joyful responsibility.• The church's prayers safeguard leaders from drifting into false teaching, strengthen their character, and support them in the demanding work of shepherding.• A praying church becomes a spiritually powerful church.Call to Action:This week, intentionally pray for the leaders God has placed in your life—that they would remain faithful to Scripture, walk with integrity, and lead with joy. At the same time, examine your own posture toward authority: ask the Lord to cultivate a heart that is humble, teachable, and eager to follow Him through the shepherds He has provided. Seek ways to encourage your spiritual leaders, and allow their example to spur you toward deeper faithfulness in your own walk with Christ.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org

Terry Lynch, CEO of Power Metallic Mines (TSX.V: PNPN) (OTCBB: PNPNF) (Frankfurt: IVV), joins us for a comprehensive exploration update from their fully funded 100,000-meter drill program at the polymetallic NISK Project in Quebec.  We discuss some of the key acquisitions made earlier this year expanding the land package around the NISK Project, as well as their new Jabal Baudan claims over in Saudi Arabia.   Key Highlights from the Interview:   Exploration Strategy: A six-rig program focused on expanding the mineralized around the Lion Zone and at depth, the Tiger Zone, new polymetallic targets from surveys, and still drilling to connect the 5.5km corridor between Lion and NISK Main. High Grade Assays From Summer Drilling: 22.66 meters of 4.57% CuEq, including 6.05 meters of 9.70% CuEq in Hole 020 28.0 meters of 4.28% CuEq, including 3.4 meters of 15.45% CuEq in Hole 015 5.35 Meters of 11.97% Cu (16.35% CuEqRec) in Hole 022 Resource Growth Path: Early-stage modeling efforts are enabling analysts and investors to build their own interpretations of scale, while metallurgical studies are underway to confirm high recovery rates. Acquisition of Li-FT Power land:  Back on July 14, 2025 the Company announced that it closed a definitive agreement dated June 9, 2025 to acquire a 100% interest in 313 mineral claims totalling 167 km² from Li-FT Power Ltd. (TSXV: LIFT) (OTCQX: LIFFF). The claims adjoin the Company's 45.86km² Nisk property, where exploration is expanding the high–grade Lion Cu–PGE discovery and the Nisk Copper-Nickel-Platinum-Palladium-Gold-Cobalt deposit.   Terry explains how there are 8 very high priority drill targets that the exploration team is following up on across this newly acquired land. Phase 1 Metallurgical Testing of Lion Deposit:  On Oct. 16th, Power Metallic announced that preliminary metallurgical studies are underway being performed by SGS Canada Ltd at its laboratories based in Quebec City, QC, and Lakefield, ON. Work to date has shown that the copper mineralization is contained within coarse grained chalcopyrite and cubanite, both which should respond well to conventional sulphide concentration methods. Overall, the character of the mineralization suggests good recoveries of copper sulphides, and these initial metallurgical tests will determine the recovery potential of the PGEs, Au, Ag, and Ni., which are expected to report within a conventional sulphide concentrate. Awarded Jabal Baudan Exploration License in Saudi Arabia: Power Metallic announced on June 16th that it was awarded the exploration license for the Jabal Baudan project in Saudi Arabia's Jabal Sayid Mineralized Belt. This historic milestone positions Power Metallic as one of the few foreign companies with mining concessions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, having secured a successful bid in this prestigious licensing process. Key Strategic Stakeholders:   Terry highlights that there are high profile backers of the company like Robert Friedland, Rob McEwen, The Stern Family, Palos Capital, and also Terry's family that are keeping a large percentage of the shares in strong hands interested in seeing the longer-term expansion of the mineralization for the company.  * In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Power Metallic Mines at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.    Click here to follow the latest news from Power Metallic Mines   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

At 57 years old, I decided to do something I'd spent 30 years in the fitness industry avoiding: I started training to compete in a bodybuilding show. As I've shared this journey, one comment comes up constantly: "I love what you're doing, but I could never do the food part."   This single phrase got me thinking. It's the perfect example of a bigger conversation about freedom. When we say "I could never," we are admitting we are enslaved. The opposite of freedom is slavery, and any addiction—to food, habits, or even negative thoughts—is a chain that makes you feel like you have no choice.   But I've found that the very thing people fear—the strict discipline—is actually the key to breaking those chains.

In this episode, host Alex Greene sits down with Lindsay Wolff, a certified health coach and mentor with the Primal Trust Program. Lindsay shares her powerful journey from experiencing debilitating chronic illness—including chronic fatigue, Lyme disease, and severe pain—to discovering the transformative power of nervous system regulation and somatic practices. After spending nearly a decade navigating the medical system without lasting relief, Lindsay found healing through a comprehensive approach that integrates bottom-up nervous system practices, trauma processing, and reconnection with nature.Lindsay introduces listeners to the Primal Trust framework, explaining how it differs from other brain retraining programs through its three-level curriculum that begins with foundational practices like TRE (Trauma Release Exercises), functional neurology, and breathwork before moving into deeper emotional processing and parts work. She discusses the importance of titrating these practices for sensitive nervous systems, creating safety through gradual exposure, and building capacity over time. The conversation explores how chronic illness often stems from nervous system dysregulation following stress or trauma, and how practices like neurogenic tremoring can help discharge survival energy stored in the body.Join our Upcoming Workshop: December 18, 2025 - Nervous System Regulation for Chronic Pain & Illness with Lindsay Wolff: https://neurogenic-integration.com/product/nervous-system-healing-with-primal-trust-regulation-tools-by-lindsay-wolff/Key Highlights & Timestamps00:00 Introduction to Lindsay 01:00 Primal Trust Overview 03:00 Lindsay's Journey Begins 04:00 Chronic Illness Algorithm 05:00 Health Crash Experience 07:00 Nature's Healing Power 09:00 Discovering TRE Practice 12:00 Body-Mind Connection Awakening 13:00 Primal Trust Explained 15:00 Bottom-Up Practices 18:00 Brain Retraining Fundamentals 21:00 Level Two Work 23:00 Hero's Journey Framework 25:00 Mentorship and Coaching 36:00 Titrating TRE Practice 42:00 Individual vs Group 46:00 Nature Connection Experience 48:00 Emotional Reservoir Concept 53:00 Workshop PreviewResources & Links MentionedPrimal Trust Program: https://www.primaltrust.org/ Dr. Cathleen King (Dr. Cath): https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-cathleen-king-dpt-951b6597 Red Beard Embodiment Podcast with Dr. Cathleen King https://www.redbeardsomatictherapy.com/post/podcast-e29-discovering-primal-trust-ft-dr-cathleen-king Red Beard Somatic Therapy:Instagram: @redbeardsomatictherapyFacebook: @RedBeardSomaticTherapy

Are you playing it safe or playing to win?

In today's complex world, we're often taught the skills of management—how to organize tasks, track metrics, and keep things running. But is that enough to truly succeed, lead a team, or build the life you dream of? The hosts of the Personal Mastery Training podcast argue that management falls short. What's truly needed is leadership, and the absolute cornerstone of leadership is belief.   In a compelling episode, they explore why unwavering belief—in yourself, your team, and your vision—is the essential ingredient for navigating chaos, inspiring trust, and turning ambitious goals into reality. Key Highlights from the Discussion   You Were Trained to Manage, But You Need to Lead: Management handles the what and how; leadership inspires the why. True leaders don't just assign tasks; they instill a powerful belief that galvanizes action, especially through tough times. Belief: The Glue of High-Performing Teams: A leader's conviction is contagious. When you genuinely believe in the mission, you build the trust and solidarity necessary for a team to overcome obstacles and achieve collective success. Your belief makes them believe. Self-Esteem is Your Foundation: While confidence can come and go, deep-seated self-esteem is the unwavering belief in your own worth and capability. Cultivate it by acknowledging your past wins and resilience—it's the fuel for authentic leadership. Bring Simplicity to Complexity (I-E-E): Great leaders cut through the noise. They establish a clear Identity(who we are/need to be), provide Evidence through consistent action, and cultivate the right Environment for success. Is Your Environment Killing Your Potential?: Like a giant tree needing specific soil and climate, your potential can only flourish in the right environment. If you're not growing, critically examine your surroundings—the people, culture, and resources. Sometimes the problem isn't you; it's the "pot" you're planted in. Trust the Process: Stop fixating on the distant outcome. As legendary coach Nick Saban said, "Outcomes are a distraction." Focus intensely on executing the daily process required to get there, and the results will follow. Leaders Turn Chaos into Order: Life and business are inherently chaotic. A leader's role is to act like a magnet, using their focused belief and clarity to bring structure, purpose, and direction out of the disorder. The Takeaway Whether you're leading a company, a family, or just yourself towards a significant goal, the journey starts with belief. It's the internal compass that guides you through uncertainty, the energy source that fuels perseverance, and the signal that tells others you're worth following. Stop just managing, and start leading with conviction.    

Janice Cowden, retired nurse and patient advocate, shares her remarkable triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) story. Five years following successful treatment for stage one breast cancer in 2011, Janice was diagnosed with a stage 4 metastatic TNBC recurrence. As of today she has 8 years of no evidence of disease (NED) under her belt. She shares how she stumbled upon the cancer community that inspired her to become the advocate she is today and the uncertainty that comes with NED. She also shares how she copes with losing friends in the cancer community through her patient advocacy work. We also have a rapid fire Q&A where she answers questions surrounding various medical terminologies, diagnoses, and more to keep you in the loop. NOTE: There is one clarification from the rapid fire Q&A session. The definition of disease free survival (DFS) is the time from random assignment (used in clinical trials and research studies to assign participants to different groups) to cancer recurrence or death from any cause (Gutman SI, Piper M, Grant MD, et al. 2013).Key Highlights:1. Metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is stage four breast cancer that has spread to distant sites in the body.2. Finding events and communities centered around cancer not only supports cancer patients emotionally and socially, but can also serve as informational hubs. Being proactive in learning about your diagnosis, whether it's through community and/or research on your own time, can help you feel confident with the choices you make. 3. While finding a community of other cancer patients can help, unfortunately this disease means that you will lose friends you make in these settings. It doesn't necessarily get easier, but finding an outlet to cope with such losses is vital to your wellbeing.About our guest:Diagnosed with Stage IV triple negative breast cancer in 2016, five years after an early-stage breast cancer diagnosis, Janice launched into patient advocacy following training through Living Beyond Breast Cancer's (LBBC) Hear My Voice Outreach program in 2017. As a peer-to-peer support and research patient advocate, Janice is passionate about supporting others with metastatic breast cancer, in addition to continually furthering her scientific knowledge base of this disease, treatments, and clinical trials, which she acquires through attending scientific breast cancer conferences and webinars. Janice is involved with several patient-founded and led organizations including PCDI, GRASP, and Project Life MBC. As a trained peer support volunteer, she is founder of an international online peer support group for patients newly diagnosed with MBC. She serves on the Board of Directors for METAvivor Research and Support Inc., and is an Advisory Board member for Project Life MBC. She is an individual member of the Metastatic Breast Cancer Alliance. When she's not busy with advocacy work, Janice enjoys traveling, reading, outdoor activities, and spending time with family, including her husband, two adult children and three grandchildren.Disclaimer: This podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Leadership Is Adaptability in Action Charlene Wheeless shares how true leaders move beyond hierarchical models: “You quickly learn that hierarchical leadership is quite ineffective…If you can connect with someone, you can lead someone.” Adaptability, active listening, and connecting with people on a one-on-one level turn authority into inspiration. 2. Vulnerability Is the New Power Tiffany Yu talks openly about leading with vulnerability and authenticity—especially in spaces that haven't historically made room for difference. “I believe that we have the capacity to be our full, authentic selves…Just different parts of it are showing up at different times.” Her approach shows how vulnerability, not perfection, drives belonging and possibility. 3. Listening and Empathy Build Trust Heather Younger explains her unique practices for making teams feel truly seen and heard: “I always have this practice where if I'll present an idea…I let them basically overvote me. That creates a sense of safety. And they know what, they can trust me.” Her actionable tips for active listening cut through disengagement and unlock deeper trust. 4. Integrity as a Strategic Asset The panel emphasizes how integrity isn't just a virtue. It's foundational to sustainable business success. Tiffany points out: “There is a business case for disability inclusion…how can we balance both the moral imperative with the economic imperative and have them in tandem?” Integrity shapes culture, attracts talent, and drives performance... not just reputation.

Picture this: a sunny Sunday morning in Paris. The Louvre is packed with tourists — and then, bam!A group of thieves pulls off a heist so smooth it feels like a movie. They scale the building, smash a window, and in just four minutes, they've stolen priceless jewels from the French Crown Jewels collection.And that got me thinking…Even in a world where everything seems to be taken — peace, time, security — there's one thing no one can steal: what belongs to the King.In this episode, we dive into the Louvre heist and what it teaches us about God's Kingdom — how the treasures of heaven can't be touched, broken, or stolen. Because when your worth is in Christ, no thief can take that from you.

* Life is full of tests—moments designed not to punish, but to reveal what's truly in our hearts. From everyday decisions like patience and humility to major areas like finances and relationships, God's testing us to shape us into who we're called to be. Like Israel before entering the promised land, these seasons of testing are vital for our growth and preparation.In this message, we'll explore the biblical foundation of tests—God's purpose isn't to harm but to develop trust, obedience, and character in us. We'll see how every test serves as a confirmation of what's already inside, and how passing them positions us for blessings and fruitfulness.Key Highlights:* The Purpose of Testing: God tests us to develop patience, humility, and trust—especially when it comes to our finances and priorities.* God's Invitation to Test Him: Malachi 3:10 challenges us to "test" God through tithing—revealing His promise to bless and open the floodgates of heaven.* Understanding Tithing in Perspective: Whether under the law or grace, giving willingly and cheerfully aligns our hearts with God's kingdom.* The True Test of Our Hearts: It's not just about what we know but about what we do—our attitude, obedience, and trust matter most.* Three Critical Areas of the Test: Heart, Stewardship, and Priority. Your financial choices are reflections of what's truly important to you.* Living Open-Handed: Every day is an opportunity to choose generosity over greed, trust over worry, and obedience over hesitation.* Turning Tests into Testimonies: When we trust God, even in tough times, we open the door to His blessings, purpose, and future.This isn't just about money—it's about aligning your entire life with God's plan. It's about trusting His promises, living with purpose, and letting your faith move from belief into action.

Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen Can strategic generosity help you thrive, emotionally and financially? In this Inspired Money episode, host Andy Wang brings together an expert panel to explore how acts of giving don't just change communities, but transform your own sense of purpose, happiness, and financial health. If you believe philanthropy is only “about the money,” this episode will give you a whole new perspective and practical strategies to make your giving more impactful. Whether you're an individual donor, family foundation, finance professional, or nonprofit leader, this is packed with actionable advice—and heart. Meet the Expert Panelists Caroline Fiennes is the Founder and Director of Giving Evidence, an organization that promotes evidence-based charitable giving to ensure donations create measurable impact. A Visiting Fellow at Cambridge University and author of It Ain't What You Give, It's the Way That You Give It, she is recognized globally as a “charmingly disruptive” expert on effective philanthropy and has advised leading donors, companies, and foundations worldwide. www.giving-evidence.com Paul G. Schervish is Professor Emeritus of Sociology and former Director of the Center on Wealth and Philanthropy at Boston College, where he pioneered research on the moral, social, and emotional dimensions of wealth and giving. A Fulbright Scholar and five-time honoree on The NonProfit Times “Power and Influence Top 50,” he has shaped how scholars and practitioners understand philanthropy as both a financial and spiritual endeavor. http://www.bc.edu/cwp Yvonne L.

Building an Impactful Philanthropic Portfolio Caroline discusses why giving should be as strategic as any investment. Rather than random donations, align your charitable “portfolio” with your skills and resources—and verify that you're meeting real needs with evidence-based solutions. She advises, "It's important to think about what you have... Money is the most obvious thing, but there can be other things donors bring as well." 2. The Emotional Rewards of Giving Paul reveals that generosity is deeply connected to happiness and meaning. Drawing on Aristotle's concept of “philia”—friendship love—he explains, “The more you feel the people you are looking to help are actually yourself, or people like those whom you love...the greater is your generosity.” Joy comes from connecting your giving to your deepest values. 3. Values-Driven and Relationship-Centered Giving Yvonne urges donors to engage their families and communities—not just write checks. Impact starts with understanding the problems you're trying to solve, ongoing donor education, and building trust with nonprofits. “Philanthropy is not about wealth, it's about worth and how you understand the worth of other people,” she shares. 4. Technology and Financial Planning Tools for Greater Impact  Stephen demystifies donor advised funds and tax-smart strategies, making giving frictionless and empowering donors to commit more, without financial strain. “We want to put a lot of focus on making the transactional frictionless so the relational can flourish,” he says. From bunching to appreciated stock, financial tools are game changers for modern philanthropists.

James Franklin got fired — and it's wild how fast people go from calling you a hero to a disappointment.But if we're honest… we've all felt that pressure before.To perform. To prove ourselves. To live up to expectations — whether at work, at home, or even in our faith.And when we fall short? It hurts. Because deep down, we wonder if we've let God down too.But here's the truth: God's plans aren't built on our performance.They're built on His promise.Just like a good coach doesn't throw out the whole playbook after one bad game, God doesn't give up on us when we miss the mark.He's not measuring us by the world's scoreboard — He's shaping us for eternity.In this episode, we talk about what James Franklin's firing reveals about success, failure, and how to trust God when expectations break you.

Is the “2030 Depression” really inevitable - or just overhyped? In this continuation of his three-part series, Darryl Lyons, CEO & Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, dives deeper into the predictions surrounding a potential economic downturn and examines the four “vehicles” that could collide to create it: government spending, inflation, demographic trends, and the AI bubble. Building on Part 1's historical parallels, Darryl unpacks how rising national debt, compounding inflation, shrinking birth rates, and market speculation around artificial intelligence are shaping today's financial landscape. Using his “traffic light” analogy, he illustrates how these forces might intersect - and what that could mean for investors and everyday Americans alike. Whether you're concerned about what's ahead or simply trying to separate fact from fear, this episode encourages you to question the doomsday narratives, stay informed, and maintain a long-term perspective grounded in wisdom and clarity. Key Highlights from the Episode •           The “four cars at the intersection” driving economic risk: government spending, inflation, demographics, and AI. •           How compounding inflation is widening the gap between the “haves” and “have nots.” •           Why declining birth rates and aging leadership may create long-term economic pressure. •           The warning signs of an AI-driven market bubble - and lessons from the dot-com era. •           Why fear and greed still dictate market behavior - and how to stay grounded amid uncertainty.

The Power and Pitfalls of Niche Asset Classes  Paul Moore's perspective on “boring but beautiful” sectors like self-storage and small-bay industrial assets emphasizes their recession resistance and long-term cash flow. He underlines: “A great property can be ruined by a mediocre operator, and a mediocre asset can be saved and prosper under a great asset manager.” This theme of specialized knowledge—versus chasing trends—is critical for sustainable, risk-adjusted returns. 2. Leveraging Data, AI, and Hyperlocal Analysis Neal Bawa demonstrates how real estate investing is being revolutionized by artificial intelligence and predictive analytics. “All of our rent comps are now done by a tool called Manus…We're able to manage our properties better because our weekly reports on asset management are AI-generated,” Neal shares.

Strategic Asset Management—From Landlord to Business Owner Ken emphasizes the essential mindset shift from simply being a landlord to managing properties as scalable businesses. “If the asset is in really, really good shape, it's well capitalized, it's maintained, financially maintained…then it actually helps when you start to exit.” Operational excellence—including robust asset management and leveraging both people and systems—drives sustainable value. 4.
