Today, I dive into the latest drama surrounding Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively, particularly the recent dismissal of Baldoni's $400 million counter-lawsuit against Lively, which has left many of his fans concerned. I also discuss Ryan Reynolds' comments that seem to take a jab at Baldoni while asserting his own integrity. Shifting gears, I cover TLC news, including the Pauly family's house for sale in Oregon and the ongoing speculation about their future on the show, as well as updates on the Plath family's home in Georgia, which hasn't sold yet. On a personal note, I share my own fertility journey following an egg donor transfer and my anxieties about potential pregnancy. Finally, I touch on the Diddy trial, where the prosecution has dropped several charges, raising questions about the case's future. Stay tuned for more updates and insights!

Braydan Young is the Co-founder and CEO of SlashExperts, a leading peer-conversation platform that helps B2B companies accelerate revenue by connecting prospective buyers with real customers. Under his leadership, SlashExperts announced $2M in seed funding in April 2025, marking a significant milestone for the company. Braydan has a background in entrepreneurship, having previously co-founded Sendoso, a successful company that is a leading sending platform simplifying direct mail, gifting, and corporate gifting processes for businesses. Beyond his ventures, he serves as a mentor at ChicoSTART, offering guidance to emerging entrepreneurs. In this episode… Launching a startup is never easy, but scaling one introduces an entirely new set of challenges. Founders often struggle to balance rapid growth with operational complexity, investor expectations, and the pressure to remain profitable. How do entrepreneurs navigate these competing demands while staying true to their vision? Braydan Young turned a simple idea, sending Starbucks gift cards via email, into a fast-growing business by staying attuned to customer needs and market shifts. As demand expanded, he evolved the offering from basic digital gifting to full-scale warehousing and fulfillment, ultimately co-founding Sendoso and raising over $100 million in venture funding, including a $100M Series C. When market conditions changed, Braydan faced tough decisions, including multiple rounds of layoffs, which taught him the importance of transparent leadership and leading with empathy during difficult moments. These experiences shaped his approach to building more resilient companies. He emphasizes the value of listening to customers, staying flexible, and learning from setbacks to drive long-term success. Tune in to this episode of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast as John Corcoran interviews Braydan Young, Co-founder of SlashExperts, about startup growth, resilience, and innovation. Braydan discusses hypergrowth during COVID-19, the complexities of warehousing, lessons from fundraising, his new SaaS peer-to-peer model, and strategies for lean startup operations.

Lucy Jeffrey is the founder of Bare Kind and Candid Founders, two purpose-driven brands built from a mission to make commerce more meaningful. Bare Kind is a bamboo sock company that donates 10% of profits to save the animal featured on each sock, while Candid Founders is both a YouTube channel and growth agency helping consumer brands scale on Faire, a leading B2B wholesale marketplace.Before launching either company, Lucy worked in banking and began experimenting with ecommerce by selling reusable straws, t-shirts, and other sustainable products. Her viral turtle-themed content and strong brand mission helped Bare Kind stand out in the crowded DTC space and grow into a seasonal powerhouse, with 70% of revenue landing in Q4. But with a growing team and cash flow challenges, Lucy co-founded Candid Founders to help other brands succeed on Faire while smoothing Bare Kind's revenue curve.Whether scaling to 1,000+ retail accounts, turning her backend team into a profitable service business, or shutting off paid Meta ads to improve profit margins, Lucy brings a sharp, experimental mindset to Ecommerce. She shares insights on building sustainable DTC brands, making wholesale work, and running two businesses with her husband without relying on outside capital or paid ads.

Naina Batra, CEO of AVPN, offers a forward-looking and strategic view into the evolution of social investment across Asia. With the upcoming launch of ImpactCollab, AVPN is not merely introducing a platform — it is catalyzing an infrastructure for cross-border philanthropy and capital deployment across Asia's fragmented social impact landscape. AVPN is a social investment network based in Asia and a leading ecosystem-builder that aims to move capital towards impact. ImpactCollab is a platform that has been designed with the support of the Monetary Authority of Singapore and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. It has been designed to address long-standing inefficiencies and trust deficits that hamper giving in the region. It targets a critical and under-leveraged segment: the region's burgeoning population of centi-millionaires and high-net-worth individuals who are eager to give back but often lack the guidance, transparency, and assurance necessary to do so confidently. By functioning simultaneously as a knowledge base, a due diligence engine, and a matchmaking platform, ImpactCollab seeks to bridge the trust gap and remove systemic friction from philanthropic flows. Batra notes this is Asia's moment to lead. Faced with mounting social inequities, climate disasters, and reversals in gender parity and nutrition, the region demands urgent, coordinated responses. AVPN's expansion underscores its commitment to mobilizing a pan-Asian community of social investors — from grantmakers and family offices to development finance institutions and policymakers. An interesting feature of ImpactCollab lies in its governance maturity framework and data-driven nonprofit scorecard. These tools serve dual purposes: instilling confidence in funders while streamlining reporting burdens for nonprofits, many of whom face opaque and restrictive foreign funding environments. AVPN's approach — aggregating capital, reducing duplicative reporting, and embedding transparency — is aimed at producing systemic change. Batra's conviction is clear: wealth in Asia is abundant; what is lacking is a trusted, efficient conduit to mobilize that wealth toward lasting impact. ImpactCollab is AVPN's bold answer to that challenge. Thank you for downloading this episode of the Do One Better Podcast.

This will be the final episode of Podcast Talent Coach. It has been a great journey through 550 shows. But, it has reached its destination. WHEN I REALIZED IT WAS THE END I've met a lot of great people. The things I've learned are immeasurable. The journey has been incredible. As I was shaping this episode, I thought about a variety of approaches. The 7 things I learned over 550 episodes. The top ten people I've met. The list of mentors who shaped my success. Everything I considered seemed cliché. So, I'm just taking you to how it came to be. The end of the show came to me during my latest launch. As the cart close approached, I realized the end was near. WHERE IT STARTED This all started 20 years ago. In a March 2005 edition of Wired Magazine, I came across an article about MTV VJ Adam Curry. The article was called "Adam Curry Wants You To Be An iPod Radio Star". The article mentioned that Curry was the brains behind iPodder, described as the offspring of the blog and the Apple MP3 player. This was the beginning of podcasting. And I was fascinated. Unfortunately, I had no interest in tech. A few years later I got my first iPhone. I was soon downloading podcasts. By 2009, I was in love with the format. By this time, I had been coaching radio talent for about 15 years with a successful radio show of my own. As I listened to these podcasts, I thought they could be so much more effective if they just used the techniques we used in radio to connect with an audience. They just didn't know what they didn't know. It was still the wild west. MY PERSONAL LAUNCH I started creating content. By 2012 I was speaking on stage at events like New Media Expo and BlogWorld. In June 2013, this podcast was launched. It was also the month that Ken Allan became my first coaching client. He came to me help him create stronger content and a more compelling show. Over the years, I've coached many incredible content creators. I've created a few courses and live programs. There have been webinars that have completely crashed, 3-day events that have been incredible, and lots in between. As the years went on, I started drifting away from stronger content and more toward launching podcasts. THE DRIFT STARTED HAPPENING As I would explain what I do to help people create effective content, people would say, "That sounds great, Erik... but I don't have a podcast." Launching a podcast isn't the tough part. The struggle is figuring out what to do with your podcast. Getting to grow and using it to generate revenue are the areas that create challenges for people. But, they wanted me to help them launch. So, I did. I launched the Podcast Launch Accelerator to help people launch in 30 days. That's when I started attracting people who didn't have a podcast rather than those that needed help with content and growth. Two problems come from this. First, I was attracting people who needed help launching rather than those who wanted more effective content. Second, I was now more into tech and less into how to use it. Exactly where I didn't want to be. BACK TO MY ROOTS So, I got back to my roots. I dove into become influential with your content. My content became more about who you are, how you share your story, and how you move a room to action. We were talking less about how to launch. I recently did market research around influence and impact. I talked to dozens of people about where they struggle regarding becoming someone worth listening to. Their challenges were right in my wheelhouse. When the program was developed, I rolled it out. It was offered in one-on-one calls, workshops, and short info sessions. Of all the people who saw the opportunity, only one purchased. Over the years, I've tried different approaches with different courses. I have some amazing clients and a wonderful group program. The revenue has been solid and growing over the years. It just isn't where I hoped it would be. KNOW WHEN TO END IT Dan Miller was one of my mentors with 48 Days To The Work and Life You Love. He and I shared a birthday, though years apart. We lost Dan at the beginning of 2024. Dan always said you should be able to tell in about 90 days if a business idea has legs. He should know. Dan launched many businesses, some successful, some not so much. He also thought "winners never quit and quitters never win" was a false cliché. In a blog post and podcast episode, Dan said, "I constantly have areas in my business and life that are on the bubble. If they are not proven successful in a very specific period of time – they're gone – I quit but keep moving on to success in other ways." Dan's point was that winners know when to quit. NOT IN THE NUMBERS It happened as I was crunching the numbers from the latest launch and examining the results of 2024 in my business. I came to the realization that the success wasn't where I wanted it to be. During my mastermind call three days later, I explained what I was thinking. That when it was confirmed. It's time to find the next fun thing to pursue. There are 550 episodes here to serve you and help you shape your content. The first 275 episodes are solo with just me, except for episode 200. I sprinkled in some great interviews with some amazing people over the next 275. Find them all here: PODCAST TALENT COACH EPISODES It has been a blast. I can't thank you enough for coming along on the journey. We've done some incredible things. I'm not sure what's next. There are a few things I want to try. I'm sure a podcast will be part of it. I'm sure we'll cross paths again down the road. Until then, remember to always tell the truth, always make it matter, and always have fun. I'll see ya soon.

Welcome to this episode of the Hungarian heritage podcast where I am welcoming back my former guest and friend, Elizabeth Lukacs Chesla, author of You Cannot Forbid the Flower. She is back to help me announce that the podcast will be starting online book clubs in season 4 coming this fall. What originally started out as being a quick Kicsi pod episode to make this exciting announcement, turned into a full length episode that combines our collaborative announcement along with a larger clip from the episode where I interviewed Liz about her book in Season 2. Our inspiration for this new collaborative book club adventure is to provide a space for people to read books about our Hungarian Heritage by writers of Hungarian heritage. We are hoping to provide a way for us to connect more deeply with our own Hungarian family heritage by connecting more deeply with each other. This episode will also feature a portion of Elizabeth's original episode from season 2, which will enable you to draw additional Hungarian heritage connections by listening to Liz discuss her Hungarian heritage, her inspiration for writing the book, and so much more.  We hope that we have inspired you to join us this fall for our inaugural online book club. Information on how to purchase your copy of You Cannot Forbid The Flower can be found below. We will also send you reminders on social media about the first online book club date of September 25, 2025. We really hope you can join us for an evening of book discussion and Hungarian Heritage connection.  If you have feedback or questions about this episode or you would like to connect with me at the podcast, you will also find that information in the show notes. If you've enjoyed this episode and you're interested in learning more about this Hungarian Heritage community, please don't hesitate to reach out. I would love to hear from you.  Our theme music is Hungarian Dance by Pony Music, used with special license from Envato Market.

According to research from G2, 63% of buyers like to be introduced to new products or solutions. So how can you effectively equip reps to sell your new offerings so they can turn that interest into real business impact? Shawnna Sumaoang: Hi, and welcome to the Win-Win podcast. I’m your host, Shawnna Sumaoang. Join us as we dive into changing trends in the workplace and how to navigate them successfully. Here to discuss this topic is Danica Bangert, the senior director of revenue enablement at ProducePay. Thank you for joining us, Danica. I’d love for you to tell us about yourself, your background, and your role. Danica Bangert: Thanks Shawnna for having me. It’s great to be here to talk through this subject. I think it’s very relevant in today’s world and especially in this world of AI and new things that are always coming for a lot of our go-to market reps. But like you mentioned, I’m the senior director of revenue Enablement at Produce Pay. I spent the last decade. In, you know, high growth SaaS companies like Zendesk, like Gong, and now kind of in the FinTech world, in the produce industry, where I get to kind of bring a, I would say, more modern enablement strategy to a very traditional industry, which is unique. And I’m really passionate about enablement in general, having come from the individual contributor side, having done sales and now moved to the enablement world. So love scaling, you know, sales teams and sales enablement teams with, for me, a lot of it’s around frameworks. A lot of it’s around consistency, messaging, and you know, programs like you said, that drive real behavioral change and not just kind of check boxes for enablement. SS: We’re excited to have you here, Danica and you actually recently were featured in an article that offered a glimpse into a day in the life of an enablement leader. Can you tell us what this looks like for you at ProducePay, and what are some of the key initiatives you’re focused on driving as an enablement leader? DB: Yeah, well, no two days are the same, especially a startup. So I’m sure many of our listeners can agree to that point, but especially navigating rapid growth and change is something that I deal with. So some days I’m deep in strategic planning and prioritization, figuring out how to scale things like the onboarding program, if we’re in a hiring phase. Or in my case a lot more is on field execution. So how do I balance the ever boarding for the different roles and different teams in the field? And then other days I’m building hands-on, right with the team, whether it’s tightening our messages on current products, building, you know, LMS courses and certifications for, you know, programs that require maybe a little less behavioral change. Launching, you know, competitive plays or just in general refining manager coaching motions. So I think it’s a mix of thinking big to collaborate with my cross-functional partners, but also for me rolling up my sleeves and helping the team. I. SS: And one of your key initiatives I know, is enabling reps to effectively sell the new predictable commerce program. What are some challenges that reps might face when learning to sell a new solution and how have you been helping your team overcome them? DB: Yeah. Like you mentioned, one of our biggest initiatives is driving adoption for our predictable commerce program. In our case, it’s a offering that gives a bundling almost of our services. It is a definite. I would say new product, but it’s really a shift in how we have gone to market in the past. And of course in that case, enablement has been critical in translating that into something that the field can actually execute on. So, you know, trite as it sounds, the analogy of building a plane while we’re flying it is. Is certainly something that we have to balance here at ProducePay. So we’re figuring out what the motion is to sell, to market this offering, this product, but at the same time, to try to go to those, go to market teams and give them what they need to get in front of customers during the right cycle, during the right part of the customer journey. And so for me and my team, we focused on. A lot of the like packaging of what is that narrative? And the challenge there is designing it to be really prescriptive and make sure that there’s action against, like how can we actually put these pieces into place and embedding it into the different motions that we have in our enablement cadence today. Things like onboarding or on our ongoing coaching and things like that. So it’s so for me it’s about consistency. It’s about clarity of the message for things like new product offerings and giving people the confidence they need to go and speak to their customers or their new business prospects about that potential value. SS: I love that. Consistency, clarity, and confidence. I think those are fantastic things to drive for your sales team. From your perspective, what unique value does an enablement platform provide though when it comes to equipping reps to effectively sell a new solution? DB: Yeah, I mean, for us, it’s about change management, right? Because change management is a big one, and I think when you’re asking sellers to pivot the way that they’ve always sold something, or you have to communicate and over communicate, oftentimes the why, giving them the space to either practice. Or create quick wins or come back to being intentional and being aligned. We really need to be able to have the tools in order to do that. Of course, you know, Highspot helps us along our journey with this in order to enable against any sort of initiative. So for us it’s been a game changer. Right? And it’s a critical, I think, central source of truth, but more importantly, it gives the reps. What they need in their flow of work. I’m very big on like operating in the operating rhythms of the go-to market teams and the tool sets that they’re in. So whether it’s. Pitch decks, talk tracks, objection handling. It should all be at their fingertips. And so, you know, we’ve also leaned into those components. We’ve leaned in heavily to Digital Rooms specifically because of our use of those with our customer. So in customer facing, we can use those Digital Rooms to guide reps kind of through that structured buyer journey and kind of ensure consistency across those touch points. SS: I’d love to actually double click into that because as you mentioned, I know you’re leveraging digital rooms to help reps land the new solution. What are some of your best practices for leveraging Digital Rooms and how are you planning to use them to drive success of your new solution launch? DB: Yeah. One area that, like I said, we’ve really leaned into Digital Rooms. Like I said, it’s not just about the content sharing, it’s about creating this guided. Buyer experience that really mirrors how we want the reps to have conversations. With our customers, especially for us post initial sales, right? A lot of times we see our customer success team who is going in there. There’s so much for us in terms of our product and our offering that they have to be able to anticipate and really guide the customer through when they’ve already signed up with us and become a member and start to utilize our products and services. So we really wanna make sure that they feel equipped to have the conversation, the CSMs, and that the customers don’t have any surprises, right? So that anticipation and the use of guiding them through that journey in digital rooms is really important. So for us, each room is really tailored to the stage of the deal. And for us, post-sales, that curated content is really important and which is why it’s a huge piece of the multi-threaded sales, post-sales journey and, and use utilizing that live on the call with our customers. So from the sales leadership perspective, I think it also gives us visibility. When we think about using the digital rooms, and we can see when a buyer ultimately engages, when a customer engages with it, what they’ve clicked in that room, what interests have been spiked and what drops off. Ultimately, that helps us kind of coach the reps that are using those, our CSMs that are using those in real time and kind of adjust the strategy and what we’re seeing in terms of, you know, buyer disengagement. So, you know, we’ve used the Digital Rooms, especially with our new product offering and ultimately with our current offerings, some of our products that have been around for a long time that are really consistent and that we know we need that customer success support for. So that making sure everyone is kind of aligned in the interactions. SS: Amazing. You touched on visibility and when I think about that, I immediately think about kind of the underlying data behind that. How are you leveraging data to continuously optimize and improve your enablement programs? DB: Yeah, I mean, data’s so important. And of course we’ve seen real results in just utilizing those kinds of capabilities. Shorter time to first deal, or in our case, like higher attach rates for key products. Are things that I would wanna look at, um, and that we’ve seen impact for, from a lot of our enablement programs, but especially this, when we think about post-sales on new products or post-sales on existing products, I would say stronger deal progression is something I wanna look at and utilize the tools sets for the field. But you know, we also track field readiness scores. And you know, since rolling out things like our multi-product offerings and this type of program using, you know, Highspot and coaching cadences, we’ve seen a pretty significant lift in rep confidence and kind of tying that into pipeline conversion. So a lot of things that we’re looking at there. SS: Amazing. And since implementing Highspot, what business results have you achieved and do you have any wins you can share? DB: Yeah. I mean, I would say, again, just looking at the engagement piece, you don’t have to go crazy, right? And especially with tools in general, but Highspot especially, there’s so much you can do in the tool itself that I think it’s important to think about, like the basics. And if you wanna start off with just attributing your enablement success to engagement. That’s absolutely okay. Right. You don’t have to go as far as, okay, let’s tie in directly to the deal conversions or to the qualified pipeline, or to the close rates, or to the a RIO or whatever it is that you’re measuring, right? It’s okay to go straight to, you know, engagement. It’s okay to go straight to rep confidence, like some of those are easy, big wins. And for me, with a smaller team in terms of enablement and also a smaller go-to-market team. You know, that’s something that still gets me buy-in and alignment with my team. So with at least these tools getting, you know, an 18% lift in rep engagement, even just looking at some of the numbers today, like those are good for me. SS: I mean, to your point, it’s about the, the people and, and you’ve mentioned this, you mentioned this in the article, that enablement isn’t just about tools or processes. It really does come down to the people at the end of the day. And how do you keep your people and their needs at the center of your enablement strategy? DB: I think keeping people at the center of enablement strategy is easily done by just remembering that we are dealing with people, right? Sometimes we forget in this world of Zoom and post COVID, like we’re always on, you know, our laptops we’re always on, in general, in emails or in slacks, or in messages, et cetera. Zoom, especially, I think it’s easy to forget that there is a person on the other side of the screen. So much so in even podcasts, right? So we’re always looking at that, I think from a numbers perspective, but coming back to building relationships, right? We get into the roles we’re in, or the companies that we work for because of the relationships we have and the communities that we built behind. So I think it just comes back to remembering that there’s humans involved and what do people care about most is building those connections. So not just, you know, they’re not just numbers, they’re not just APIs or metrics that there’s people behind it. SS: Yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely. Danica, last question for you. If you could give one piece of advice to enablement leaders preparing to roll out a new solution or a new product offering, what would it be? DB: Hmm. This is a good one. I think for me, it goes back to what I just mentioned in terms of even metrics and maturity level. It’s okay to be a team of one. It’s okay to start small, don’t chase perfection. I would say chase adoption. Right. Your content, your programs, your tools, they only matter if people actually use them, that they’re engaged with them. So keep things simple, keep things repeatable and tied to the major business outcomes of, you know, your industry, your business, and just never forget that the best enablement is built with the field, not for them. SS: I couldn’t agree more. Danica, thank you so much for joining us today. You landed some fantastic advice for our audience. DB: Awesome. Well, thanks for having me. It was great. SS: To our audience, thank you for listening to this episode of the Win-Win podcast. Be sure to tune in next time for more insights on how you can maximize enablement success with Highspot.

After four years of selling my signature offer on evergreen, I made the risky decision to switch to a campaign model and it completely transformed my business. I'm sharing exactly why I abandoned the "always available" approach (even though it served me well) and moved to exclusive, time-limited campaigns for The Rebrand Experience. The truth is, I felt completely capped on evergreen. I was repeating the same revenue numbers year after year despite working harder and creating more content. I was tired of selling the same thing every single day just to hit three-quarters of my revenue goals, with no space to introduce new offers or experiment with different strategies. The switch wasn't easy, and it definitely wasn't without risk. I had to completely restructure our delivery systems to handle 12 clients in 30 days instead of spreading them across a full year. I had to create backup financial plans in case the campaigns flopped. Most importantly, I had to stick to my word about exclusivity, even if it meant potentially leaving money on the table by not reverting to evergreen pricing between campaigns. But here's what I learned: evergreen taught me everything I needed to know about my ideal client, messaging, and objections before I ever launched. Those four years of selling without urgency forced me to get incredibly sharp with my positioning. When I finally did launch, I had two back-to-back six-figure campaigns because the foundation was rock solid. Now I have six months of runway to experiment with new offers, expand my marketing, and plan strategically for 2026 - something I never had when I was selling the same offer 365 days a year.

 Title: ​W​INNING IS A DECISION “Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” — Galatians 6:9 “Every transformation demands a moment of truth—where quitting is an option, but winning is a decision.” – Coach JC Today, I'm hitting you with some real talk about why so many people start strong but never finish - and how YOU can be different. Uninformed Optimism – “This is gonna be amazing!” This is where the journey begins — fired up, excited, full of vision. You're in the gym with a new program. Launching a business. Starting a relationship. And you're thinking, “Let's GOOO!” But here's the truth — you don't know what you don't know. The obstacles are hiding. The price hasn't been revealed. That's why your job is to anchor to PURPOSE, not just passion. Purpose keeps you going when the feelings fade. Passion starts the race… purpose finishes it. Informed Pessimism – “This is harder than I thought…” Now the smoke clears. The hype fades. The soreness sets in. You realize — “This ain't easy.” This is where doubt creeps in and dreams die… unless you know it's part of the process. So let me coach you right now — if you're feeling resistance, good! That means you're in it. It means you're changing. Don't run from the pain — lean into it. Normalize it. Expect it. Push through it. Decide Now – Will You Quit or Win? Most people never get past Stage 2. But YOU… you're not most people. When it gets hard, you don't fold — you fight. When the emotions drop, your commitment rises. Winners don't quit in the dip — they dig deeper in the dip. Winning is not a feeling — it's a DECISION. Wherever you are on your journey, don't stop now. Anchor in your purpose. Normalize the resistance. And DECIDE to finish what you started. Now go win your day, win your week — and keep showing up… Because winning is your birthright… And you were born to WIN ALL DAY! Let's gooo!

Titles don't build trust, people do. And according to Rebecca Goodman-Stephens, that's where real leadership begins. Rebecca is the CEO of Moses Singer, a New York law firm, but her story starts far from the legal world. She grew up across the UK, Switzerland, and France, studied clinical psychology, and built her career in consulting and public accounting before stepping into her current role. Along the way, she kept coming back to the same core skill: understanding people. As she joins hosts Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg, Rebecca shares how her background shaped her leadership style, and why listening, curiosity, and follow-through matter more than any formal authority. How do you get people to want to work with you? How does one shift a firm's culture without blowing up what's already working? Rebecca also talks about her move into legal services and what surprised her most, like how much creativity and momentum she's found in a space often viewed as slow to change. From evolving compensation structures to narrowing focus and driving intentional growth, she walks through the mindset behind her first two years as CEO. This episode touches on private equity and what legal leaders can learn from the accounting world. Rebecca offers a clear message: don't wait for outside investment to fix what you haven't yet addressed internally.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Meet Rebecca Goodman-Stephens 04:04 How Clinical Psychology Shapes Rebecca's Leadership Approach 08:02 Lessons from Consulting and Public Accounting 12:52 Why Rebecca Moved into Legal Services 15:50 What Surprised Rebecca About the Legal Industry 17:27 Leading Change as CEO at Moses Singer 21:13 Private Equity and the Future of Law Firms 24:23 Building a Resilient, Forward-Looking Organization 26:41 Launching a Business-Focused Law Firm Podcast 27:56 Personal Passions, Family Life, and New York Favorites   Links Connect with Rebecca Goodman-Stephens: LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecca-goodman-stephens-b702665/   Connect with Howard Rosenberg: LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hrosenberg/ Company web profile: https://www.baretzbrunelle.com/howard-rosenberg   Connect with Chris Batz: LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisbatz/  LinkedIn Company page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/columbus-street/ Columbus Street website: https://www.columbus-street.com/  Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
