In this solo episode of Passionate & Prosperous, I'm digging into a topic I've been thinking about a lot lately: the difference between reinventing yourself… and simply evolving.We're in a moment where everywhere you look, people are talking about rebranding, pivoting, burning it all down—and while I love a bold move, I think all this language can create unnecessary fear and pressure for so many of us.Because here's what I believe:You're not starting over.You're building on everything you've already created.In this conversation, I share the personal stories and lessons that shaped how I think about evolution – not just in business, but in life. From losing my dad at 19, to creating and walking away from successful ventures, to making scary decisions in the name of alignment, I've never seen it as “starting from scratch.” It's always been about taking what I've learned and created… and turning it into what's next.I talk about:Why the “reinvention” narrative can keep you stuckHow to tell when it's time to make a shift in your businessWhat evolving your offers, message, or audience actually looks likeHow to deal with the fear of changing things up (especially when people are watching!)Why your creativity and growth are essential—not optionalThis episode is for anyone feeling the call to make a change—but afraid of what it means. You're not broken. You don't have to burn it all down. You just might be ready to evolve.Let's talk about what that really means—and how to do it.Get Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast

In today's episode, I'm talking about why you don't need their apology to heal. We crave the apology so deeply because we're HUMAN. We're wired for connection and closure as humans; our hearts want to be seen, known, and heard. When we believe that healing is only possible after someone else makes it right, we unknowingly tie our freedom to someone else's readiness or willingness to take responsibility.It IS possible to let go of this weight that was never yours to carry in the first place.

In this episode of The Deal Scout, host Susan Reilly sits down with franchise industry veteran Don Schin, who brings over 25 years of experience and a passion for doing franchising the right way. Whether you're thinking of buying into a franchise, launching your own, or scaling one with integrity, this episode is packed with real-world insights that matter.Don has worn nearly every hat in the franchise world—franchisee, master franchisee, CEO, broker, and now consultant. But it was his role as a master franchisee that most shaped his philosophy: responsible growth, local empowerment, and building businesses that truly impact families and communities.Don shares why undercapitalization is the #1 reason franchise brands stumble, and how many new franchisors get it wrong by focusing on speed over sustainability. He explains how the “plug and play” myth sets franchisees up for failure and why emerging brands often lack the systems, support, and profitability structure to survive.From building matching systems that pair the right people with the right opportunities, to guiding new franchisors through the process of going to market, Don's mission is clear: to raise the standard across the franchise industry and help people succeed long term. He even discusses his “Are You Franchiseable?” assessment and how his company operates as the “eHarmony of franchising.”If you're entering a season of career change, thinking about launching a franchise, or looking to scale without imploding, Don shares the tools, mindset shifts, and battle-tested truths to help you build something that lasts.In this episode, you'll learn:What “doing franchising right” really looks likeThe two biggest reasons franchises failHow Don identifies red flags in emerging brandsWhy mindset and support are just as important as capitalWhat a good franchise deal actually looks likeHow to avoid jumping into a business that's a short-term trendReach out to connect with Chris or to be a guest on the show to SusanNext Steps Share your thoughts with a review - https://www.thedealscout.com/reviews/ Let's connect on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/susan-reilly-64150722a/ Subscribe and Watch on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBQN_Y3nhDGClfMxCSBDjOg Disclaimer: The content shared on this podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be taken as financial, legal, or tax advice.

Most AI safety conversations centre on alignment: ensuring AI systems share our values and goals. But despite progress, we're unlikely to know we've solved the problem before the arrival of human-level and superhuman systems in as little as three years.So some are developing a backup plan to safely deploy models we fear are actively scheming to harm us — so-called “AI control.” While this may sound mad, given the reluctance of AI companies to delay deploying anything they train, not developing such techniques is probably even crazier.Today's guest — Buck Shlegeris, CEO of Redwood Research — has spent the last few years developing control mechanisms, and for human-level systems they're more plausible than you might think. He argues that given companies' unwillingness to incur large costs for security, accepting the possibility of misalignment and designing robust safeguards might be one of our best remaining options.Links to learn more, highlights, video, and full transcript.As Buck puts it: "Five years ago I thought of misalignment risk from AIs as a really hard problem that you'd need some really galaxy-brained fundamental insights to resolve. Whereas now, to me the situation feels a lot more like we just really know a list of 40 things where, if you did them — none of which seem that hard — you'd probably be able to not have very much of your problem."Of course, even if Buck is right, we still need to do those 40 things — which he points out we're not on track for. And AI control agendas have their limitations: they aren't likely to work once AI systems are much more capable than humans, since greatly superhuman AIs can probably work around whatever limitations we impose.Still, AI control agendas seem to be gaining traction within AI safety. Buck and host Rob Wiblin discuss all of the above, plus:Why he's more worried about AI hacking its own data centre than escapingWhat to do about “chronic harm,” where AI systems subtly underperform or sabotage important work like alignment researchWhy he might want to use a model he thought could be conspiring against himWhy he would feel safer if he caught an AI attempting to escapeWhy many control techniques would be relatively inexpensiveHow to use an untrusted model to monitor another untrusted modelWhat the minimum viable intervention in a “lazy” AI company might look likeHow even small teams of safety-focused staff within AI labs could matterThe moral considerations around controlling potentially conscious AI systems, and whether it's justifiedChapters:Cold open |00:00:00| Who's Buck Shlegeris? |00:01:27| What's AI control? |00:01:51| Why is AI control hot now? |00:05:39| Detecting human vs AI spies |00:10:32| Acute vs chronic AI betrayal |00:15:21| How to catch AIs trying to escape |00:17:48| The cheapest AI control techniques |00:32:48| Can we get untrusted models to do trusted work? |00:38:58| If we catch a model escaping... will we do anything? |00:50:15| Getting AI models to think they've already escaped |00:52:51| Will they be able to tell it's a setup? |00:58:11| Will AI companies do any of this stuff? |01:00:11| Can we just give AIs fewer permissions? |01:06:14| Can we stop human spies the same way? |01:09:58| The pitch to AI companies to do this |01:15:04| Will AIs get superhuman so fast that this is all useless? |01:17:18| Risks from AI deliberately doing a bad job |01:18:37| Is alignment still useful? |01:24:49| Current alignment methods don't detect scheming |01:29:12| How to tell if AI control will work |01:31:40| How can listeners contribute? |01:35:53| Is 'controlling' AIs kind of a dick move? |01:37:13| Could 10 safety-focused people in an AGI company do anything useful? |01:42:27| Benefits of working outside frontier AI companies |01:47:48| Why Redwood Research does what it does |01:51:34| What other safety-related research looks best to Buck? |01:58:56| If an AI escapes, is it likely to be able to beat humanity from there? |01:59:48| Will misaligned models have to go rogue ASAP, before they're ready? |02:07:04| Is research on human scheming relevant to AI? |02:08:03|This episode was originally recorded on February 21, 2025.Video: Simon Monsour and Luke MonsourAudio engineering: Ben Cordell, Milo McGuire, and Dominic ArmstrongTranscriptions and web: Katy Moore
