What would you do if you were already the person you're trying to become? In this episode, I share a quick personal update and a mindset shift that's been shaping the way I make decisions in both business and life. I open up about a recent health challenge, including a herniated L5 and lumbar spine degeneration, and the unexpected loss of my long-time chiropractor. While surgery has been suggested, I'm focused on healing through other approaches and staying committed to recovery. Then we dive into the concept of “acting as if.” It's a powerful decision-making filter: make choices from the perspective of the person you want to become, not just where you are today. I share how I use this with leaders who are scaling their businesses, as well as a personal moment where I realized I wasn't following my own advice when hiring marketing support. One simple question challenged me to step back into alignment with the version of myself I'm working toward. If you've been hesitating on a decision or waiting for the “right time,” this episode will give you a simple mindset shift to move forward with more clarity and confidence. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating  and leave us a comment on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser and Castbox about what you'd like us to talk about that will help you realize that at any moment, any day, you too can decide, it's your turn!

In the final episode of the Abrahamic Starter Series, we step back and ask a bold question: If a man actually lived this out — what would his life look like? Not the vague, lonely retirement story our culture sells, but the good life God designed. A faithful husband. A fruitful home. Grandchildren around the table. Debt-free. Assets compounding. A legacy stretching 200 years into the future. We've torn down the broken pop-Christian script. We've reclaimed dominion, dynasty, sacrificial headship, and kingdom-minded money. Now we paint the picture of where that road leads. If you're a dad in your 30s wondering whether there's more than the slow fade of average church life — this episode shows you what you're building toward. This is the Abrahamic vision of the good life.

The goat industry doesn't look like the beef industry — and that difference may be an advantage. For years, many producers have viewed the lack of centralization and formal structure in the goat industry as a weakness. But recent history has shown that highly efficient systems can also be fragile. In this episode, we look at what decentralization actually means and why flexibility may be more valuable than uniformity. We'll talk about how centralized beef systems function, what 2020 exposed, the realities of direct marketing beef versus goats, and why goat meat requires intentional market alignment. We also discuss grass-finished misconceptions, genetic alignment, and how predictable seasonal demand can be used strategically — whether you sell direct or at the sale barn. The goal isn't to criticize one system or elevate another. It's to think clearly about structure, resilience, and producer choice. If you've ever wondered whether the goat industry is behind — or simply operating differently — this episode will give you a steadier perspective. In This Episode, I Cover: What centralization actually means in livestock production How efficiency and fragility can exist in the same system Why beef is broadly marketable — and goat requires targeted marketing Grass-finished realities and genetic alignment Seasonal goat market rhythms and sale barn timing Different ways producers can market animals Key Takeaways: Flexibility and consolidation are different strengths Goat markets are specific but predictable Grass-finishing requires management, not just ideology Genetics must match the production system Producers have meaningful choices in how they build their operation Related Episodes: 21 | Seeking Sustainability?

In this episode of Construction Corner, host Dillon delivers a passionate manifesto on the power of making fast decisions and sticking with them. Reflecting on seven years of podcasting and a recent conversation with fellow entrepreneurs, he challenges the paralysis that keeps people from taking action. From Joe Rogan's 500 episodes before anyone cared to Mr. Beast's 15-year grind, Dillon illustrates how consistency and commitment—not perfection—lead to success. He shares practical examples from his own work, including how three days spent refining a simple pole base detail saved clients $50,000, and emphasizes that overthinking kills momentum. Whether it's starting a podcast, creating content, or standardizing construction details, Dillon's message is clear: make a decision, run with it, get better as you go, and stop worrying about looking silly. Be authentic, embrace the learning curve, and remember that the internet trolls probably weren't going to buy from you anyway.Comment your thoughts below and don't forget to like, SHARE, and subscribe!Want an Engineering firm BUILT for Electrical Contractors?

Download your free "Start Here" guide!“How do I actually make decisions with my Human Design?!?!”“What if I can't feel my authority speaking to me?”“Why did it not work out when I made a decision based on what my authority said?”I hear these questions over and over again from so many of you in so many ways. So today we're getting into it all!I know it can be frustrating to know what your authority is (splenic, emotional, lunar, etc.) but not feel it. And it can be confusing to try and listen to your body if you're not used to trusting it.So that's where we start. With feeling Human Design in the body instead of keeping all the information and learning locked up in the mind.I'm talking about:reframing Human Design as a repatterning practice for trust, not necessarily a decision-making systemquestions to ask yourself when connecting with your authority to become more regulated and awarerealizing that making the decision based on your authority doesn't automatically mean you're done, and how to let yourself recalibrateworking on saying yes slower, even if you have sacral authorityAnd — most importantly — why this all TAKES TIME! Even after five years into this experiment, I still fall into the trap of trying to force decisions or clarity, or keep asking my Human Design to decide for me instead of letting it teach me how to listen.So I'm here with you for all of this, because it is a lifelong process.If you're looking for more community support, we're working through Rebirth: The Deconditioning Journey together in The Magnetic Rebellion starting March 2 with a live launch!Rebirth is a community-held, embodied Human Design experience that helps you unravel conditioning, feel safe in your body, and return to who you truly are.

Have you ever made a pro-con list to help make a big decision only to still feel stuck or confused?In this episode of The Driven Introvert Podcast, we're exploring a fresh approach to decision-making inspired by Chapter 9 of Emily P. Freeman's book The Next Right Thing. It's called the Life Energy List, and it just might change the way you approach every hard choice from here on out.Here's the thing, a pro-con list has its place. They help us sort through our thoughts when we're overwhelmed or confused. I've done it many times. I've weighed jobs, opportunities, and big life changes using the classic two-column format.But as Emily points out in the book, not every item on the list holds the same weight. Ten “cons” can easily be outweighed by one deeply important “pro” like peace of mind, health, or the joy of meaningful connection.That's why she offers a new method: instead of asking “What are the pros and cons?” ask:What is life-giving?What is life-draining?This episode gets real and personal. I share stories from my own life where this approach would have made a world of difference and how I now use this tool to navigate everything from relationships to work and creativity.I also get into what it looks like to wrestle with decisions that aren't black and white and go beyond a pro-con list. Like, when something feels draining in the moment (hello, hosting people at my house

Why do decisions feel so heavy for so many women?In this episode of the Slay Podcast, Louise Hazel breaks down a truth most women have never been taught: decision-making doesn't feel hard because you're indecisive — it feels hard because you've been deciding from strain instead of strength.When confidence stabilizes and emotional steadiness grows, something powerful happens. Decisions feel clearer. Less loaded. Less exhausting.In Episode 154, you'll learn:Why every decision is a vote for the woman you're becomingHow strength simplifies decision-making by stabilizing identityWhy overwhelmed systems seek permission — and how capacity changes thatA simple lens to tell whether a choice strengthens you or drains youThe Strong Woman Decision Matrix™ — a tool for organizing alignment, not forcing outcomesWhy aligned decisions quietly shape destiny over timeThis episode reframes decisions as one of the most powerful expressions of strength — not because they're dramatic, but because they're cumulative.

Lawyers are understandably cautious about AI—but the real risk may be using it the wrong way. In episode 601 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Zack Glaser sits down with Matt Spiegel of Lawmatics to explore how agentic AI is changing the way law firms handle intake and evaluate potential clients.  Matt breaks down why surface-level AI tools fall short, how agentic AI can make informed recommendations instead of opaque scores, and what it takes to build trust in automated decision-making. They also discuss how better intake systems can reduce wasted time, improve lead quality, and support more intentional firm growth.  Listen to our other episodes on Artificial Intelligence in Legal Practice.  #497: Real Talk About Artificial Intelligence in Your Office, with Ben Apple | Spotify | LTN  #543: What Lawyers Need to Know About the Ethics of Using AI, with Hilary Gerzhoy Apple | Spotify | LTN  #546: Unlock Law Firm Growth: AI marketing Secrets with Karin Conroy Apple | Spotify | LTN  Links from the episode:  https://www.lawmatics.com/    Have thoughts about today's episode?

Have you ever said, “I don't even know what I want anymore?”You're not alone. Life is full of decisions. Some feel urgent, others overwhelming, and often we're caught between choosing what brings peace and what brings purpose. Let's talk personal development for introverts.In this episode of The Driven Introvert Podcast, I'm walking through Chapter 8 of The Next Right Thing by Emily P. Freeman, and we're digging into a question we all need to answer—What do you really want… and what do you want more?I share a personal story from 2020, a quiet season where life slowed down and work was steady—but something was missing. I wasn't juggling a big personal project or working toward a dream, and while that brought peace, it also stirred something else in me.Purpose.Desire.Impact.Sometimes the thing we want (like calm, simplicity, or comfort) isn't the thing we want more (like meaning, movement, or mission). And often, those two don't always go hand-in-hand. This is personal development for introverts.We also explore:Why naming your desire out loud matters more than you thinkWhat we can learn from blind Bartimaeus and how Jesus responded to himThe hidden cost of indecision—and why not deciding is still a decisionHow to move past fear of judgment and be honest about what you wantWhy a pro/con list might not be serving you—and what to do insteadWhether you're deciding between two good options or navigating a situation with no clear answer, this episode is for you.You'll walk away with clarity on how to:Listen inward, not outwardPray from an honest placeDiscern what's life-giving versus life-drainingTrust that God is guiding even when things feel uncertainFriend, if you've been stuck in indecision or afraid to name what's really in your heart, this is your gentle nudge forward. There's more ahead of you than there is behind you. And your next right thing starts with being honest about your desire. Looking for personal development for introverts?

Welcome to our Reveal podcast,“So how are we equipped to make decisions?”The Bible teaches that God never asks us to choose wisely without first equipping us to do so. Scripture tells us that wisdom begins with reverence for the Lord, not with pressure or fear. Proverbs reminds us that when we trust in God with all our heart and don't rely solely on our own understanding, He promises to direct our paths.We're equipped through God's Word, which acts like a lamp for our steps, giving light just enough for the next decision. We're also equipped through prayer, where we're invited to ask God for wisdom freely and without shame, knowing He delights in guiding His children.To support this ministry and help us continue our God-given mission, click here:Subscribe to our channel for the latest sermons:https://www.youtube.com/@revealvineyardLearn more about Vineyard Church Reveal Campus:https://www.revealvineyard.com/Follow us on social media!Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/vineyardrevealcampus Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/RevealVineyard

Most women assume getting dressed feels difficult because their wardrobe needs an upgrade and they're missing key pieces that will make all the difference. And so they shop and shop and shop to try to make it better.   And I say this with love… but the real reason your closet feels overwhelming and incomplete all at the same time is because it's being treated like storage space instead of like a curated collection designed for your life. It's holding who you used to be, who you thought you'd be by now, who you're trying to be on your best days, and who you are on a random Tuesday. No wonder it feels like a lot.   The fact of the matter is… You don't need a better wardrobe. You need a better way to make decisions — about what stays, what belongs, and what works for the real life you're living today.   In this episode, I want to share a little peek at what we've been working on inside the free Shop Your Closet Challenge. You'll get to preview a teaching segment where I break down exactly what changes when you stop shopping to fill the void — and start focusing on what you already have and why you have it.   By the end of this conversation, you'll understand why editing your closet has felt harder than it should, how to develop a clear yes/no standard for what stays, and how to create a closet full of options that excites you — no shopping required!   And if this resonates with you, I'd invite you to join us for our final session tonight, where we're bringing everything together to help you wear what you own in new combinations you love. Replays are available for all of the sessions through this weekend, so it's not too late to jump into this Challenge and start maximizing the pieces you've already invested in. Head to herstylellc.com/challenge for instant access to the replays, to join us at 8pm ET for our final session on Thursday, January 29th, and for all the support you need to shop your closet!   For now… enjoy this preview of how to start thinking, editing, and utilizing your wardrobe in a whole new way… all from the starting point of making better and more confident decisions.   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ ⭐️ JOIN THE FREE SHOP YOUR CLOSET CHALLENGE from January 27-29, 2026: https://herstylellc.com/challenge

In this episode I share one of main lessons from last few years.

January 27, 2026: Executives say AI is making work more efficient. Employees say it's barely saving time. Gartner warns that overreliance on AI will actually lead to worse decisions. And one of the world's leading AI CEOs says the real risks are arriving faster than society is prepared for. In today's episode of Future Ready Today, I break down four stories that, together, reveal what's really happening at work in the age of AI: A 5,000-year historical lens from Forbes Tech Council on how every major technology shift redefines what humans are valuable for — and why AI is no different, just faster. A new warning from Gartner that by 2030, 30% of organizations will see worse decision-making because employees are relying on AI before developing judgment. Reporting from the Wall Street Journal showing a growing gap between executives who believe AI is boosting productivity and employees who experience more rework, confusion, and an "AI tax" on their time.

In this episode, I'm joined by professional organizer and life coach Tracy Hoth to explore why letting go of clutter feels so hard, why decision-making can feel emotionally heavy, and how to declutter in a calmer, more supportive way without pressure or overwhelm. Decluttering isn't just about tidying your home.It's about the decisions you make every single day.What to keep.What to let go of.What feels heavy.And what you are quietly carrying for your future self and your family.If decluttering feels exhausting, emotional, or overwhelming, there is nothing wrong with you.Most people struggle not because they lack motivation, but because letting go of clutter brings up identity, guilt, fear, and pressure to get it right.How do you declutter without second-guessing every decision?And how do you organize your home in a way that actually supports your life, instead of adding more stress?In this conversation, we talk about decluttering and organizing from a completely different angle.One that is intentional, compassionate, and realistic.No extremes.No rushing.No pressure to downsize your whole life.This episode will help you rethink home organization, understand why clutter feels so emotionally loaded, and explore declutter strategies that work with your nervous system instead of against it.Because creating an organized home is not about perfection.It's about making your space feel lighter, calmer, and easier to live in.For you, and for your family.You'll hear about gentle ways to start tidying when you feel stuck, how to make decisions with less stress, and why overcoming overwhelm starts with how you see yourself, not how much you own.If you've been craving a calmer approach to organizing, this episode will help you take the first step without pushing yourself too far.Links and resources mentionedYou can find Tracy Hoth and her work here:

He is a business partner of Dr. Robert Cialdini—author of Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion—and a founding member of the Cialdini Institute, the only active, licensed Cialdini Institute worldwide.A certified influence specialist and trainer across Australia and New Zealand, Patrick has spent over two decades teaching professionals how to persuade ethically, accelerate results, and build stronger relationships across sales, leadership, marketing, and team environments. He is also the co-author of How to Hear “Yes” More Often (2024) and host of the podcast Ethical Persuasion Unlocked.In this episode, Jennie and Patrick Van der Burght discuss:Why persuasion is not manipulation—and how ethical influence creates lasting behavior changeThe science of decision-making through Daniel Kahneman's System One and System Two thinkingWhy selling feels harder today as attention spans continue to shrinkHow logical arguments often fail to move people toward actionWhy Dr. Cialdini's principles of persuasion act as decision triggers rather than sales tactics Key Takeaways:Persuasion isn't about pushing—it's about prompting. The most powerful influence happens when people feel, “I chose this,” not “I was sold this.”Your brain's autopilot (System One) makes most decisions. If your message is 100% logic and data, it's speaking to the 5% that decides the least.Attention is today's scarcest resource. In a world of pings, pop-ups, and endless scroll, there's rarely enough focus left to run deep, analytical thinking.When sales conversations rely only on rational explanations, they often create indecision rather than clarity.Ethical persuasion activates the right mental shortcuts so people can decide faster, with confidence, and without regret.“I would argue that a lot of those no's aren't actually no's. They're indecision.” —  Patrick Van der Burght Connect with Patrick Van der Burght:LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/patrick-van-der-burghtFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/patrick.burght/ CONNECT WITH JENNIE:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/badassdirectsalesmasteryInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/badassdirectsalesmastery/Website: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/Show: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/blog/YouTube: COMING SOON!LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/badassdirectsalesmastery/Email: jennie@badassdirectsalesmastery.com  Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Today I'm joined by the brilliant Beth Greenacre, a curator, advisor, and art consultant whose career has unfolded quietly but powerfully at the centre of the art world. Beth began working with David Bowie in her twenties and went on to oversee the care, exhibition, and eventual sale of his collection, revealing a deeply personal way of looking, collecting and living with art. Since then, she's built a long-term, trust-led portfolio career advising private collectors, working with artists and estates, and curating exhibitions. In this conversation, we talk about how collectors really make decisions, how intuition is really deeply embodied knowledge and why holding work back can be an act of integrity. This is a rare, generous look inside how the art world actually works, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! KEY TAKEAWAYS Be present. Build relationships patiently. Share your work carefully. Trust that confidence is learned, not bestowed. Quality reveals itself over time, through deep looking, honest editing, and the courage to hold work back until it is ready to speak. Artists are not failing when recognition comes slowly. They're building something with roots. Working with David Bowie taught Beth that confidence isn't about hierarchy or bravado. It's about shared commitment, deep listening, and respect for the work. BEST MOMENTS “My purpose is to acknowledge, celebrate and give space to the power of art to change people's perspectives.” “Nothing meaningful in the art world is built quickly. Not confidence. Not collections. Not trust.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.bethgreenacre.com https://www.instagram.com/bethgreenacre_london PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

We're taught that smart people get the right answer. The gold star. The A+. But Bobby Parmar, professor of business administration at the University of Virginia and author of Radical Doubt: Turning Uncertainty into Surefire Success, argues that this conditioning sabotages our most important decisions. In this episode, Bobby shares why doubt isn't the enemy of good decision-making, it's the foundation. He reveals how to shift from being a “right answer getter” to becoming a “better answer maker,” and the framework he uses to help executives embrace uncertainty as a strategic advantage. You'll learn why embracing doubt can unlock better decisions for you and why the best investors treat uncertainty as their superpower.

In this encore episode, I'm teaching you how to make decisions with clarity, confidence, and self-trust — especially when the stakes feel high and the fear of "getting it wrong" feels paralyzing. If you've ever second-guessed yourself, stayed stuck in indecision, or looked outside yourself for answers you already have, this conversation is for you. I walk you through a simple three-step decision-making process: exploring your options, deciding deliberately, and then committing — again and again — even when your brain wants to panic or pull you backward. I explain why indecision often feels safer to our brains, how to recognize when fear is driving your choices, and how to reconnect with your wise, grounded self so you can move forward with intention. I also share personal examples, including one of the hardest decisions of my life, and how learning to trust myself changed everything. You don't need perfect certainty to decide — you just need self-honesty and the willingness to follow through. Key takeaways: Indecision keeps you stuck, even when it feels safer You can learn to trust your own judgment again Commitment builds confidence over time Cast Not Away Therefore Your Confidence by Jeffrey R.

Text your thoughts and questions!One of the most common things I hear from clients and listeners isn't “I don't know what to do,” it's “I can't decide what to do.” We know what's on our overwhelming task list, but prioritizing, selecting, and making sure we're doing the right thing at the right time is exhausting. Decision fatigue is real and can lead to burnout faster than you realize. This week, on episode 293 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I'm sharing five simple filters to help you make decisions! In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I explain why decision fatigue is the silent battery drainer of your life and share five simple filters you can use to make decisions without burning yourself out. The five filters I cover in this episode include:Choosing a word of the year as your big-picture lens for assessing every decision. Using theme days and time blocks to create “buckets” for your tasks.Acknowledging the season of life you're in and adjusting your expectations to match.Checking in on your physical, emotional, and mental bandwidth before making a commitment (matching your energy to the task).Living your values (values in action) and aligning what you do and when to reflect what truly matters. You don't have to reinvent the wheel every time you have to choose. By setting up these simple filters, you can stop spinning your wheels and start focusing on what truly matters.

We're taught that great decision-making is about logic—more pros/cons, more research, more certainty. But neuroscience tells a different story: we don't decide with logic alone. We decide with emotion. And when you're struggling to choose, it's often because you're trying to avoid an uncomfortable feeling—regret, failure, judgment, disappointment, uncertainty.In this episode, I break down why analysis paralysis happens, why waiting to feel confident is a trap, and how to make decisions from self-trust instead of fear.You'll walk away with a simple 3-step framework to help you decide faster, cleaner, and with way more peace.In this episode:Why decision-making isn't driven by logic—it's driven by emotionThe real reason you procrastinate decisions (and what “thinking about it” usually means)How avoided emotions turn into analysis paralysis and self-doubtWhy “Is this the right decision?” is the question that keeps you stuckA new definition of confidence: self-trust, not certaintyThe hidden cost of choosing “not now” (and why indecision is still a decision)A 3-step decision framework you can use immediately: your why → normalize discomfort → choose growthIf you're craving a real reset—one that actually changes how you live (not just how you plan)—join one of my New Year's Retreats:✨ If you're in Kelowna and want a full embodied reset, join in-person:Pranify Yoga on January 1, 2026, to ring in the New Year with movement, mindfulness, reflection, and visioning.

Regenerative agriculture can feel like a buzzword, a badge, or a list of practices you're supposed to follow. But in real life, and especially in a challenging climate, regeneration is a process of learning, comparing ideas against your own environment, testing small changes, observing what your land and animals are telling you, and adjusting as you go. In this episode, I'm sharing the decision-making loop we use on our ranch with both goats and cattle, and why I see multi-species grazing as a long-term benefit—even though it adds complexity in the beginning. I also walk through our big-picture goal of reducing supplemental hay by extending the grazing season, and the real constraints we have to work within, like limited moisture, fragile pasture, frozen ground, predators, and wildlife pressure. You'll hear how we're approaching water infiltration and soil building in a dry climate, why we're testing straw bales to slow runoff first, and what we've already observed from years of intensive rotational grazing, chicken tractors, and summer bale grazing. I also explain why certain popular practices don't translate well to goat management in our conditions—and how we adapt without abandoning the principles. In This Episode, I Cover: Why regenerative agriculture is a process, not a destination The decision-making loop: Learn → Compare Context → Clarify Goals → Test → Observe → Adjust → Repeat How to learn from other producers without copy-pasting their practices Shifting from “this won't work in my climate” to “how do these principles apply here?” Why nature is the best teacher and how to use observation as your guide Our big-picture goal: reducing hay by extending spring and fall grazing The resource bottleneck in dry country: water infiltration and water-holding capacity Why soil cover and organic matter are critical in moisture-limited environments Using straw bales to slow runoff as a low-risk way to test water flow paths What we've observed after 5 years of intensive rotational grazing The forage improvements we've seen from chicken tractors and summer bale grazing Why winter bale grazing is risky/not feasible for us right now (electric netting in frozen ground, elk pressure) A winter feeding strategy that works within predator pressure and management reality A soil-building feeding approach we're preparing to test (and why snow cover matters) Why we're not buying a no-till drill right now—and what we want in place first Why starting with annuals can make sense before investing in expensive perennial seed Key Takeaways: Regenerative practices aren't universal—principles transfer, but application must fit your climate and animals. Nature is the best teacher: observation turns theory into real management decisions. Start with clear goals and real constraints, then break big objectives into small, testable steps. Moisture-limited land requires prioritizing water infiltration, water-holding capacity, and soil cover. Testing small and reversible ideas (like straw bales) can prevent expensive mistakes. Multi-species grazing is a long-term benefit, but it adds complexity—especially in the beginning. “Not yet” is a valid answer on tools and investments; timing matters. Progress comes from repeated cycles of learning, testing, observing, and adjusting—not from perfection.

This week on the ranch, we've got our young hens working half the barn, scratching through the bedding and cleaning up after the goats. They're doing what chickens do best—turning packed areas into loose, manageable bedding. Watching them work reminded me how often I get asked whether goats and chickens can safely live together, so that's what we're diving into today. In this episode, I'm breaking down the real benefits of keeping goats and chickens together, the legitimate risks you need to manage, and the simple guidelines that make mixed housing safe. I'm also sharing what the newest research says about coccidia—specifically whether chickens can give it to goats—and how to decide if this setup is right for your farm or homestead. At the end of the episode, I'll give you a quick preview of next week's topic where we're going deep into coccidia: what it is, how it works, why some strains are more dangerous, and the management shifts that helped us break the cycle of coccidiosis in our own herd. In This Episode, I Cover: Why goats and chickens can safely share space How chickens help disrupt goat parasite cycles The barn-cleanup advantage of having chickens around goats The #1 rule of mixed housing: keep goats out of chicken feed What modern research really says about coccidia and species-specific strains When mixed housing becomes risky How to set up a safe, low-stress environment for both species When you should NOT mix species—especially if anyone is sick Key Takeaways: Chickens do not give goats coccidiosis. The strains are species specific. Goats getting into chicken feed is the biggest danger—and it's completely preventable. Dry bedding, enough space, and clean feeding areas make mixed housing much safer. Some diseases can move between species, so never mix sick animals. With the right setup, mixed species can simplify chores and support parasite management. Related Episodes: 06 | What Livestock Should I Get First?

Ed Arnold, founder and managing partner at The Valorizer, brings decades of hands-on experience building customer value models, teaching value conversations, and guiding companies toward value-based pricing. After working directly with Tom Nagle at Monitor Group and leading value initiatives at LeveragePoint, Forrester, and Ibbaka, Ed has become one of the most respected practitioners of Economic Value Estimation (EVE) in B2B. In this episode, Ed and Mark dive deep into what "value" actually means, why B2B buyers define it differently than sellers, and how to quantify economic outcomes in a way that withstands scrutiny. They debate value vs. willingness to pay, unpack why value stories outperform case studies, and explore how real conversations—not spreadsheets—unlock premium pricing.   Why You Have to Check Out Today's Episode: Master the real meaning of "value" in B2B—and why most companies still get it wrong. Discover how to run a value conversation that reveals economic impact and customer priorities. Learn how to turn EVE models into persuasive value stories your buyers can resell internally.   "You need to quantify the value of the product you're selling—and you need to talk to customers about that to understand it and write their value story."  — Ed Arnold   Topics Covered: 05:09 – Value Perception in B2B: Why Customers Decide with Both Logic and Emotion 08:34 – Value vs. Willingness to Pay: The Debate Begins 12:06 – Why Willingness to Pay Is Not Value (And What It Actually Measures) 19:04 – Value Perception in B2B Sales: Influence, Trust, and Risk 20:41 – Value Is Always Relative (And Why Alternative Choices Change Everything) 24:26 – Value-Based vs. Competitor Pricing: Why They Aren't the Same Thing 28:03 – Value Story vs. Case Study: What Buyers Actually Need to Make Decisions 32:47– Quantifying Product Value: How to Build a Story Buyers Can Take to Their Executives   Key Takeaways: "Value comes from use, not purchase." — Ed Arnold "Willingness to pay is not value, if it were, we'd never talk about leaving money on the table." — Ed Arnold "In B2B, value is 80% logic, 20% emotion." — Ed Arnold "A value story is customized. A case study is generic." — Ed Arnold "You can't build a value story without having a value conversation first." — Ed Arnold "Sometimes the value model reveals there simply isn't a differentiated advantage—and you have to accept that." — Ed Arnold    People and Resources Mentioned: Tom Nagle: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-tom-nagle LeveragePoint: https://www.leveragepoint.com/  Reed Holden: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reed-holden-913ab69/    Connect with Ed Arnold: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edarnold1/  Newsletter: https://edarnold1.substack.com/    Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com  

We're in the midst of an AI gold rush. Every corner of healthcare is racing to harness generative AI for productivity and cost savings. But here's the catch: healthcare isn't Silicon Valley. The mantra of “move fast and break things” doesn't work in a high-risk, complex environment. When it comes to AI in healthcare, safety and effectiveness must come before speed. This week on Radio Advisory, guest host and Advisory Board digital health expert Ty Aderhold sits down with David Woods, Mike Rayo, and Dane Morey from the Cognitive Systems Engineering Lab at The Ohio State University. Drawing on new research about how AI changes human decision-making, they unpack the risks and realities of AI in healthcare, challenge common misconceptions, and ask critical questions—like whether AI can recognize and communicate its own errors. Bottom line: There is no risk-free use of AI in healthcare. To truly evaluate safety and effectiveness, leaders must assess AI-human systems as a whole—not in isolation. Plus, stay tuned for an update on the end of the longest government shut down in U.S. history, and the healthcare programs (still) caught in the crosshairs. We're here to help: Empirically derived evaluation requirements for responsible deployments of AI in safety-critical settings How AI Can Degrade Human Performance in High-Stakes Settings The Silicon Valley Way: Move fast and break…aviation safety?

Hi friends!  Today we're talking about the transition from conventional agriculture and livestock production to a regenerative or restorative system.  I spent two days in the truck, listening to Will Harris' book, A Bold Return to Giving a Damn, and it gave me some great insights into the decades-long journey of White Oak Pastures, as well as a look into the future of our ranch.  If you're considering a production system that is closer to nature's design or if you're in the messy middle like we are, this episode will help you see the possibilities, problems, and the beautiful potential.  Let's get to it!   All the Best!
