The Habits That Shape Your Destiny What if the life you're living right now is nothing more than a reflection of your habits—both the ones serving you and the ones sabotaging you? In this powerful mashup, I sit down with three of the sharpest minds in the world—Charles Duhigg, Coach Mike Bayer, and James Clear—to uncover the truth about habits, identity, and the small, daily choices that create extraordinary outcomes. Charles Duhigg, the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Power of Habit, breaks down how every habit runs on a simple loop—cue, routine, reward—and how you can rewire even your most stubborn patterns. He shares the golden rule of habit change and why being in control doesn't mean eliminating a behavior, but transforming it into something that serves you. Coach Mike Bayer takes us deep into his concept of living as your “Best Self.” In this conversation, I share my own best self exercise—Superman—and my anti-self—Richard Cabeza. We talk about how naming these identities can give you clarity, courage, and even humor in the middle of stress. This isn't just theory; it's a practical, life-changing tool you can use today with your family, your work, and yourself. Then James Clear, the author of Atomic Habits, drives it home with his groundbreaking philosophy: success isn't about massive leaps, it's about getting just 1% better every day. He explains the compounding effect of small improvements, why identity-based habits are the most powerful, and how the two-minute rule can help you master the art of showing up. Every one of these conversations points back to one undeniable truth: you don't rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your habits. But the great news is—you can change them, starting today. Key Takeaways: How to use the “cue-routine-reward” loop to rewire habits that no longer serve you (Charles Duhigg) Why naming your Best Self and your Anti-Self can instantly shift your mindset (Coach Mike Bayer) The compounding power of small improvements: why 1% better every day is life-changing (James Clear) Why habits aren't just actions—they're votes for your identity and future self The danger of stopping the very habits that created your success—and how to upgrade them instead Your destiny isn't shaped by what you do once—it's forged in what you do daily. The smallest change can set you on the path to the biggest transformation of your life.

In this episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with Michael Rothman—entrepreneur, father, and co-founder of Fatherly—to talk about what it really means to show up for your family with intention and presence in a rapidly evolving world.   Before he ever became a dad, Michael was shaping the conversation around modern fatherhood. Now, with a toddler at home and a lifetime of service under his belt, he reflects on how being a present father isn't about perfection—but about presence, community, and character. We dive into powerful insights on building secure attachment with your kids, the risks of oversharing online, how marriage impacts your children more than you think, and what dads can do to lead with both strength and vulnerability.       TIMELINE SUMMARY   [0:00] – Introduction [1:25] – Why “wife care” is often harder than baby care [4:22] – The origin of Fatherly and Mike's shift from single men's media to parenting [7:20] – How Mike's dad inspired a life of service [10:44] – The awkward “birds and bees” talk and learning from what wasn't said [15:10] – Mentoring kids without fathers and the deep need for stable male figures [19:15] – Why kids seek connection in gangs, screens, or wherever they're accepted [20:30] – What it means to build a secure emotional foundation for your kids [23:47] – Attachment theory and the critical role of ages 0–3 [26:41] – Presence vs. proximity: how dads can show up without distraction [31:00] – How kids absorb emotional tension in marriage [34:01] – Should you stay in a marriage just for the kids?

Do you ever feel like no matter how much you explain yourself, your words just get turned against you? In this episode of Waking Up to Narcissism, Tony Overbay, LMFT, breaks down why explanations don't lead to understanding with a narcissist—or with anyone who is deeply emotionally immature. Instead, they become what Tony calls an “attack surface”: the very fuel that allows the narcissist to twist, criticize, or position themselves as the victim. Through a painfully familiar story of a wife trying to share her day and a husband who withdraws into silence, Tony unpacks: Why silence is a weapon for the narcissist—and why it spikes anxiety for the pathologically kind partner How emotionally immature people thrive on friction and conflict rather than true connection The cycle of narcissistic supply (idealization, devaluation, and discard) and how it shows up in daily interactions The difference between secure attachment and antagonistic attachment Five rules for protecting yourself and reducing “attack surfaces” in conversations If you've ever found yourself over-explaining, apologizing for things that weren't your fault, or walking on eggshells to avoid conflict, this episode will help you recognize the patterns, reclaim your emotional energy, and begin to shift the dynamic. Your kindness is a gift—but when explanations only make things worse, it's time to understand why. 00:00 Introduction and Acknowledgements 00:52 Understanding Substack and Blogging 02:11 Disclaimer and Episode Overview 02:47 Narcissism in Relationships 07:25 The Real-Life Story Begins 11:39 Analyzing the Narcissistic Behavior 19:13 Secure Attachment vs. Narcissistic Attachment 25:58 The Concept of Attack Surface 35:18 The Silent Treatment: A Narcissist's Weapon 35:51 The Parasitic Dynamic in Narcissistic Relationships 39:20 The Narcissistic Supply Cycle 43:51 Codependency and Pathological Kindness 51:41 Strategies for Dealing with Narcissists 56:05 Breaking the Cycle: Reclaiming Your Power 01:01:32 The Importance of Documentation 01:07:57 Key Takeaways and Final Thoughts Contact Tony at contact@tonyoverbay.com to learn more about his Emotional Architects men's group.

Struggling to hire the right people—or worse, stuck with mis-hires who drain your time and energy?In this episode, Bridgit Norris sits down with Emily Geddes, an attorney licensed in Washington and Idaho, business strategist with an MBA, and adjunct professor at Gonzaga Law who graduated first in her class.Emily brings a rare perspective to the intersection of law, business, and leadership, shaped by years in business consulting, healthcare administration, and now transactional and real estate law at Malek + Malek.Together, she and Bridgit unpack how to hire with values at the center, build teams you can actually trust, and turn hiring from a dreaded chore into a growth tool for your firm.If you're tired of playing roulette with your hires, this conversation will show you how to create clarity, avoid costly mistakes, and build a culture that lasts.Key Takeaways from Bridgit and Emily:1. Start with Values, Not ResumesHiring starts long before the interview.When your mission and values are clear and visible, you naturally attract candidates who share your vision and filter out those who don't.2. Use the Three C's FrameworkCompetence gets someone in the door, but character and chemistry determine whether they thrive.By looking beyond skills, you create space for integrity, humility, and teamwork to guide your decisions.3. Treat Hiring as a Team SportA hiring process that includes staff and peers gives you a fuller picture of a candidate.This not only uncovers red flags but also strengthens buy-in from the people who will work with them every day.4. Prioritize Communication and TransparencyClear expectations and open conversations prevent issues from escalating.Addressing concerns right away allows for training or mentoring—and, when needed, timely decisions to part ways.5. Humanize the Hiring ProcessEvery interaction leaves an impression.Closing the loop with candidates, even with a simple note, demonstrates respect and reinforces the kind of culture you want to be known for. "Close the loop. These are human beings who have feelings… even a quick email or a quick phone call saying, hey, we decided we're not hiring for this position—it sets you apart as a good place to work." — Emily GeddesGet in touch with Emily Geddes:Website: http://malekattorneys.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emilyhgeddes/

Cataanda James, Chief Beauty Officer of CJ The Beauty Group, talks about building a career that surpasses her wildest dreams.  Cataanda James is a textured-hair expert, educator, and beauty industry strategist whose career embodies resilience, authenticity, and the courage to follow one's passion.  Raised in Kalamazoo, Michigan, she grew up inspired by her mother's love of fashion and flawless grooming.  By junior high, Cataanda was already recognized as the "cat-eye queen," sharing makeup techniques with classmates, and by her college years, she had turned her dorm room into a thriving salon.  What others dismissed as a pastime became her undeniable calling. Her journey wasn't without resistance. While her mother supported her talent wholeheartedly, her father insisted that beauty was not a "real career."  Determined to prove otherwise, Cataanda pursued cosmetology, but soon discovered that many schools neglected textured hair altogether.  The turning point came when she enrolled at Dudley Cosmetology University in North Carolina, where she was immersed in technical excellence and, equally important, a business-first philosophy.  There she learned to approach beauty not only as an art, but as a profession requiring entrepreneurship, customer service, and polish. From there, she built a diverse foundation, working in barbershops, marketing herself with Polaroid photos long before Instagram existed, and mastering speed and precision at Supercuts.  A bold move to Baltimore in 2002 brought her closer to New York and opened new doors.  At MAC Cosmetics, she refined her artistry, attracted a broader client base, and stepped into freelance opportunities that connected her to the wider beauty industry. In 2003, Cataanda began a career-defining relationship with L'Oréal.  What started with consumer events grew into a nearly decade-long role at the New York Technical Center, where she became the company's Texture Expert.  There, she collaborated with chemists and product developers, testing innovations for brands such as L'Oréal Paris, Garnier, Carol's Daughter, and Dark & Lovely, and influencing product launches worldwide.  Following the pandemic's impact on the industry, Cataanda joined The Mane Choice as a Brand Educator, focusing exclusively on curly and textured hair.  While that chapter was valuable, her entrepreneurial spirit ultimately led her to create CJ The Beauty Group, a consultancy dedicated to helping beauty brands innovate with integrity, test products rigorously, and design inclusive strategies that authentically serve textured-hair consumers. Through every chapter, her philosophy has remained the same: step boldly into opportunity, nurture authentic relationships, and trust that what is meant for you will not pass you by.  From Kalamazoo roots to global stages, Cataanda James is proof that when passion is paired with persistence, the sky is not the limit, it's only the beginning.   Key Takeaways from Cataanda's Journey Passion Always Leaves Clues - What you loved as a child often holds the seeds of your purpose. Pay attention to those early sparks. Don't Let Doubt Define You - Even when others can't see your vision, trust yourself enough to pursue it with bold confidence. Education Is More Than Skill - True success requires not just talent but also professionalism, business acumen, and the courage to treat your passion like a career. Say Yes to Opportunity - Sometimes the next step isn't clear. Leap anyway—the door may lead to more than you ever imagined. Relationships Are Currency - Genuine connections open doors that strategy alone cannot. Stay in touch, stay authentic, and stay open. Quotes by Cataanda "What's meant for you will never pass you by; your only job is to walk boldly into the opportunities placed in front of you." "You don't need to have the entire plan; sometimes you just have to move, trust God, and figure it out along the way." "Even when you're scared, do it anyway, fear doesn't mean stop, it means step forward with faith."   Connect With Cataanda   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cataandaj/   Website: https://cataandaj.com/   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cataandaj   X: https://x.com/cataandaj

How do you make an offer so irresistible that you don't even need a sales team to sell it? Jake Setterlun is 29, runs four different companies, and somehow manages to make offer-building look easy.

In this episode, we get into how Jake thinks about creating offers that do the selling for you, why most agency owners are still stuck in 2018, and what it really takes to use AI in a way that actually boosts conversions. He also breaks down how he tests new offers, the biggest mistake he made while scaling, and how he rebuilt after stepping away too soon.

Tammy drops a truth bomb right from the start: Our emotions, not our thoughts, motivate us. This episode is a quick, hard-hitting guide on how your emotions can either drive you forward or keep you and your team stuck in a pattern of limiting beliefs. Tammy provides a four-point framework to help you master self-awareness, manage your emotional triggers, and turn your emotional intelligence into the "entry ticket" for every successful conversation.   Key Takeaways for Leaders Emotions Win: We move in the direction of the dominant emotion. If you don't own your emotions, they own you and will hijack your team's success. The Power Pause: When emotions start to rise, push the pause button, take a breath, and ask the next best question to slow down the spin. The Real Raw Material: Emotions are not the enemy; they are the raw material of trust, connection, and performance. Words Create Pictures: The language you use creates a visual in your mind, and you attach emotions to that picture, which directly creates your performance. Change the words, change the outcome.   The 4 Points for Emotional Mastery Awareness is Your Entry Ticket: Your self-awareness is the entry ticket to every conversation and problem-solving at every level. If you are dysregulated, you cannot be situationally aware of others. Vacancy is as Dangerous as Volatility: Retreating, sitting silent, and vacating a difficult moment is just as damaging to trust as blowing up. It communicates a "No Vacancy" sign that pushes people away. Self-Efficacy Fuels Collective Efficacy: If key players on your team lose the belief that they can succeed (self-efficacy), it bleeds into the whole team's belief (collective efficacy). Words Create Pictures, Pictures Create Performance: Be intentional about the words you and your team use, as the visualizations attached to them pre-determine your results.   Actionable Tools & Quotes Quote: "Your emotional awareness and ability to handle feelings will actually determine your success and happiness." — John Gottman Quote: "If you don't own your emotions, they own you." The 24/72 Rule: When hijacked by emotions, utilize the 24-hour push-pause option (or 24/24/24) to process, go back to the conversation, and check in again. Your Challenge: Master self-awareness by tuning into your physical and mental triggers (heart rate, gut feeling) before you engage.   Leadership is not a solo sport—it requires self-awareness and emotional awareness. Head on over and subscribe to the Leadership Sandbox channel on YouTube, drop your emoji in the comments, and share this episode with someone who needs an emotional regulator right now.

He discusses metrics to demonstrate return on investment in skills development and how to improve skills gap issues starting with cultivating a trust-based culture of learning   KEY TAKEAWAYS   [01:17] Trond starts studying quantum physics to explore fundamental questions about nature.   [02:01] After doing research for his military service, Trond goes into industry seeking practical impact.   [02:38] Trond joins McKinsey as a business school type experience before pursuing entrepreneurship.   [03:10] Interest in games stems from early programming and creativity cultivated during university.   [04:08] In gaming, Trond reveals how behavioral science is used to drive engagement and learning.   [06:12] Tribal, team-based successes are key to stimulating successful collaboration online.   [06:25] Fascination with learning and awareness of superficial gamification drives Attensi's founding.   [07:44] Attensi applies science to drive motivation and behavior change with measurable results.   [09:40] Correlating simulated behavior with real-world outcomes to track learning impact.   [10:23] Measuring soft skills progress when observable behavior is hard to track.   [12:10] As technology evolves rapidly, upskilling must be ongoing across high-competence industries.   [12:50] Skill development tailored to specific job challenges is more effective than one-size-fits-all.   [13:45] Self-motivated learners thrive, while others need help to develop the motivation that anchors learning.   [14:47] Many Gen Zers lack key communication skills and may not recognize this development need.   [15:49] Most learning programs fail on motivation, which must be addressed first to succeed.   [16:22] Creating mastery experiences significantly increases learner motivation and outcomes.   [15:15] Game-based learning builds confidence that translates into better real-world performance.   [19:43] Companies underinvest in onboarding due to unclear ROI, hindering workforce readiness.   [20:08] Trond emphasizes data, ROI, and clear impact as critical for better training investment decisions.   [20:34] Attensi's research shows poor onboarding leads to lower confidence and performance.   [23:42] Skill masking arises when employees hide learning gaps, often from lack of psychological safety.   [24:18] Cultivating trust-based cultures is essential to reduce skill masking and promote learning.   [25:48] Focusing on core skills for each role facilitates the shift to becoming a skills-first organization.   [26:44] Skill-based organizations can start small and ensure programs drive skill improvements.   [28:33] Maintaining skill use needs continuous feedback, clear expectations, and learning structures.   [29:13] Organizations must define competencies to stand out and align training with competitive goals.   [30:37] Tailoring programs to learner motivation and challenges supports effective skills development.     IMMEDIATE ACTION TIP: Learning motivation and skills usage are cultivated through mastery. Help employees sense their achievement to encourage their enhanced performance and growth.   RESOURCES   Trond Aas on LinkedIn Attensi's website     QUOTES   "We can use these principles of games to drive engagement, drive interest, drive motivation—and then we should be able to impact real behaviors and measure that with data."   "Most people experience poor onboarding and most people are convinced that it affects their work afterwards."   "Skill masking is that people are actually hiding the challenges that they are having."   "Are your people motivated? And if not, address that—that's what you need to address to be able to develop your organization."   “When you are able to instill a feeling of mastery in people that has a huge effect on their motivation.”   "A lot of people think that one [training] system or one approach will fit with all the different employees... and I think it needs to be a lot more nuanced than that."

"How Agentic AI Is Replacing Subscription Revenue"Chuck Ganapathi, the CEO of Gainsight & Brett Queener, Managing Director at Bonfire Ventures, who previously ran product at Salesforce and helped destroy Siebel, the company where he and Chuck first met. Together, they've witnessed every major shift in enterprise software over three decades, and they believe the biggest one is happening right now.In this conversation, Brett unveils his forthcoming thesis on "the end of ARR," arguing that agentic AI will fundamentally break subscription business models. When products finally achieve what he calls "product purity", actually doing the job they promise without requiring armies of CSMs, endless onboarding, and quarterly business reviews, the entire economic foundation of SaaS collapses. Chuck and Brett discuss whether this is an existential threat or the evolution the industry has been waiting for.What you'll learn:- Why the "friction gap" between product and value created the entire CS industry- What "product purity" means and why it threatens traditional SaaS economics- How agentic AI fundamentally changes the unit economics of software- Why usage-based pricing is inevitable once products actually work- The product marketing playbook that still matters in an AI-first worldCheck out the Key Takeaways & Transcripts: https://www.gainsight.com/presents/series/unchurned/Where to Find the GuestBrett's LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/brettqueener/Chuck's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chuckganapathi/Where to Find Josh: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jschachter/In this episode, we cover:0:00 - Preview & Introduction1:18 - Meet Chuck & Brett3:30 - How Brett and Chuck met at Siebel 9:28 - Transition to Salesforce: destruction of Siebel as a goal14:11 - Changing Nature of Product Marketing in the AI Era18:00 - Systems of Record vs. Systems of Action21:13 - Databases as “lossy” representations of reality29:00 - Brett's thesis: "The End of ARR (And I Feel Fine)"34:28 - How should agentic applications be priced?43:43 - Future Outlook: Market paying premium for top agents47:17 - 10x CSMs enabled by AI agentsReferences:- Brett Queener's blog: https://queener.substack.com/

In Episode 277 of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy takes you inside a true David vs. Goliath battle as he fights for the 2025 Signal Awards in the Business category. As the only Canadian and the only independent finalist up against billion dollar networks like Wondery, iHeart, and Amazon, Kelly reveals how underdogs can rally support and compete with giants. He shares the exact playbook he is using: creating awareness through posts, driving action with direct outreach, scaling with email, amplifying through media, and most importantly trusting community to carry the fight. Along the way you will learn the pitfalls to avoid, the importance of gratitude, and why clarity and simplicity turn support into real action.Now Kelly needs his community more than ever. With just one week left to vote, your support will decide the outcome. It takes only ten seconds to cast your vote, and every share amplifies the fight. If this podcast has ever inspired you, taught you, or helped you move the needle in your business, this is the moment to give back. Vote now for The Business Development Podcast in the Business category of the Signal Awards at vote.signalaward.com. Voting is open until October 9th. Vote and share to create a tidal wave of support and help David defeat a giant.Key Takeaways: 1. Awareness is only the first step — posts create visibility but they don't guarantee action.2. Direct outreach drives results — personal messages cut through the noise and spark real movement.3. Clarity matters — a single link and simple instructions remove friction and boost support.4. Equip your community — give them shareable assets, captions, and graphics so helping you is easy.5. Media amplifies your story — but only if you frame it with a compelling narrative worth telling.6. Gratitude fuels momentum — thank people personally and publicly to deepen connection and trust.7. Don't confuse numbers with commitment — likes and comments are not the same as votes or sales.8. Respect boundaries — pushing too hard or spamming can damage relationships you've worked to build.9. At some point you must let go — after doing everything in your power, trust your community to carry it forward.10. Underdogs win with people, not budgets — community is the greatest differentiator against giants.

What if the biggest barrier to Lean success isn't the trades or the tools — but the way we think about planning itself?

Key Takeaways: You don't need to predict the future: Success in financial markets comes from adapting to changes and riding the waves they create. Focus on what really drives value: Productivity, scarcity, and volatility matter more than just charts or predictions. Policies aren't everything: Government rules and Fed decisions play a role, but the deeper market forces are more important to understand. See volatility as an advantage: Market ups and downs can make you stronger if you learn to benefit from them instead of fearing them. Follow financial gravity, not forecasts: New investors should base their strategies on core principles, not on trying to guess every market move.

JOIN THE 7 DAY RESET - ▶️ www.therebuiltman.com/7dayreset   It's been 2,420 days since the last time I looked at porn. That single decision didn't just change my life, it gave me peace, clarity, focus, and freedom I never thought possible.   In this episode of The Rebuilt Man, I'm pulling back the curtain on exactly what shifted in me, and the same frameworks that have helped over 1,700 men break free and rebuild their lives. Here's what you'll learn today:   Why trying to “just quit” never works and the real shift that leads to lasting freedom. How surrounding yourself with the right men will pull you up to a higher standard. Why fulfillment is never found in getting, but in giving. The handful of daily habits that will rewire your brain and transform your life. If you're tired of relapsing, sick of shame, and ready to step into the man God created you to be, this is for you.   Key Takeaways You don't beat porn by quitting a behavior—you beat it by becoming a new man. Brotherhood and accountability are non-negotiable. Alone, you'll stay stuck. Porn makes men selfish. Freedom makes you a man of service. My Daily Five habits are the backbone of lasting change: gratitude, reflection, outdoor connection, no snooze, and growth. True peace comes when you're no longer carrying secrets.

How much of what we perceive about the taste of wine is actually shaped by psychology? Are vineyard soils important contributors to a wine's tasting profile? Why do so many wine producers highlight their soils as a unique factor that makes their wines stand out? Where do the “minerals” we taste in wine originate from? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Dr. Alex Maltman, author of the new book Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate: A Geologist Wanders Through the World of Wine. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of Alex Maltman's terrific book, Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate. A Geologist Wanders Through the World of Wine. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights What did a Dutch research study show about identifying soil type through blind tasting? Is there any geological evidence to support volcanic soils imparting certain characteristics to wine? Why can vines access nutrients from soil but not larger rock layers? Should we consider the root stocks of vines and the type of yeast used for fermentation when analyzing the taste profile of a wine? How does consumer psychology influence our perception of the taste of wine? Which aspects of geology and wine is Alex planning to write about in the future? If Alex could share a bottle of wine with anyone outside the wine world, who would that be?   Key Takeaways How much of what we perceive about the taste of wine is actually shaped by psychology?  It's the psychology that people think, “Oh, heavy bottle. This must be a classy wine.” For many wine drinkers, what the wine expert says will override the more academic factors, rather like a clinician saying, take these tablets, you'll be better, if the wine authority says you're going to taste vanilla. Yeah, I'm getting vanilla. Are vineyard soils important contributors to a wine's tasting profile? In one experiment, several growers planted four different grape varieties, each in different soils, and then tried to grow the grapes, vinify the grapes uniformly, and then sent the finished wines off to a completely independent expert tasting panel. The panelists were only able to group the wines according to variety. Soils didn't come through at all.   For wine producers, soil is one of the only factors that are difficult to replicate, so they're going to say their soil is special. It's a great selling point. When some wine commentators are saying they're tasting minerals from the soil because it's been taken up by the vine root and transmitted through to the wine. Well, no, that doesn't happen like that. But in any case, any nutrients that were taken up by the vine root and did make it all the way through to the finished wine, almost certainly, in practice, will have originated in the humus.   About Dr. Alex Maltman Alex Maltman is Emeritus Professor of Earth Sciences at Aberystwyth University, in Wales, U.K. Alongside a decorated career in university teaching and research, Alex has for fifty years grown vines and made wine at his home. And through this, perhaps inevitably, he became interested in vineyard geology and its fashionable but poorly understood relationship with wine. This led to numerous publications in both the popular press and academic journals. Alex is the author of the acclaimed Vineyards, Rocks, and Soils: A Wine Lover's Guide to Geology and newly released Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate. A Geologist Wanders Through the World of Wine.     To learn more, visit https://www.nataliemaclean.com/357.
