So, today I'm diving into the mess that can be podcast burnout. You know, that moment when your favorite hobby morphs into a job you dread? Yeah, we've all been there. We're chatting about big names like Marc Maron and others who decided to call it quits and how that's not just okay, but totally legit. Spoiler alert: sometimes stepping back is the best move you can make. I'll sprinkle in some sarcasm and laughs as we explore the absurdity of it all—because let's face it, if we can't laugh at our struggles, what's the point, right? If you've been thinking about starting a podcast but feel it's too crowded, realize all those podcasters who started back in 2005 might be being pulled in new directions that have them thinking about podcast retirement.Takeaways: Creative projects can sometimes feel like an endless cycle of stress and burnout. It's totally okay to step back from podcasting if it stops being fun for you. Many successful podcasters have experienced burnout, and it's a common issue in the industry. Managing expectations is crucial; don't expect overnight success when building an audience. Life changes, like welcoming a new baby, can drastically affect your podcasting ability and energy. Always remember: adding responsibilities means subtracting your fun, so be careful what you take on.

Conventional healthcare and dietary advice are, unfortunately, virtually useless in providing effective strategies on how to manage blood pressure naturally and nutritionally. They have, for instance, the DASH diet that can reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure by a few millimeters but not more. They provide bland advice like lose weight or move more. Yet there are effective strategies that you can adopt that powerfully reduce and typically normalize blood pressure. Such strategies may sound unconventional but are really efforts to restore your physiology to mimic that of populations who enjoy lifelong normal blood pressure. In this episode of the Defiant Health podcast, let's discuss these strategies that can set you free from the tyranny of the healthcare system and their over-reliance on pharmaceuticals to control blood pressure.Support the showBooks: Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded ed
In the Pit with Cody Schneider | Marketing | Growth | Startups
In this episode, we're joined by Jordan Mix, partner at Late Checkout, for an in-depth discussion on how startups can build a million-dollar brand in today's hyper-competitive landscape. Jordan introduces the concept of digital gravity—a framework for creating “mass” on the internet that draws customers into your brand's orbit. The conversation explores how companies can move beyond linear funnels and embrace orbit-based growth, where repeated brand interactions across multiple channels drive purchasing decisions.Together, we break down actionable strategies for generating traction, including the smart use of AI agents, automation, and vibe marketing. Jordan shares insights on balancing transactional marketing (like paid ads and cold outreach) with long-term brand-building investments, while emphasizing the role of creators, content flywheels, and the importance of being discoverable in AI-driven search results.Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction: Building a million-dollar brand in 2025 00:27 - Meet Jordan Mix and overview of Late Checkout 01:10 - The idea of digital gravity and mass in the AI era 03:00 - Funnels vs. orbits: How people really buy 06:15 - Automation, AI agents, and vibe marketing explained 10:45 - AI SEO, branded search, and surviving the law of shitty click-throughs 15:20 - Building discovery flywheels and creator-driven growth 20:30 - Strategies for leveraging YouTube, Reels, and creators at scale 25:00 - Managing creator risk and internal content strategies 28:00 - How to start creating digital gravity without overwhelmKey Points: • Digital Gravity Framework — Customers enter your orbit through repeated brand interactions, not linear funnels. The goal is to create mass (content, tools, assets) that attracts and retains attention. • AI Agents + Automation — Jordan highlights practical uses of AI agents, like automating outreach campaigns, creating dynamic ad workflows, or scraping competitive data to inform marketing. • Transactional vs. Brand Marketing — Early traction often comes from transactional tactics (ads, cold outreach), but long-term success requires investment in brand and content that lowers acquisition costs over time. • SEO in the Age of AI — With LLMs scraping Google's top pages, brands need to dominate bottom-of-funnel keywords and question-based queries to appear in AI search results. • Creator-Led Growth — Partnering with creators can trigger a viral cascade where hundreds of pieces of content are generated without direct cost, building digital gravity passively.Key Takeaway: Startups should focus first on finding where their customers spend time, test 2-3 channels, and double down on what works. From there, build repeatable processes and automate intelligently. The goal: maximize digital mass where it matters most, so your brand becomes the natural choice when buyers are ready.Notable Quotes: • “Funnels create linear growth. If you want exponential growth, you need digital gravity.” — Jordan Mix • “Where are your customers? Build as much mass as possible in that space.” — Jordan Mix • “Every ring you put out is like a mini-funnel — together they form the black hole of your brand.”Guest Socials: X: @jrdnmix LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordan-mix1/

Agile in Construction: Managing The Network of Promises in Lean Construction, with Luca Cotta Ramusino Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Luca defines success in Lean construction through two critical metrics from the Last Planner Method: PPC (Percentage of Plan Complete) and RNC (Reasons for Not Completing). Success means creating reliable promises in what he describes as construction's "network of promises." The Last Planner Method removes layers of management by having those closest to the work do the planning themselves. PPC measures how reliable your promises are—similar to Scrum's definition of "done"—while RNC identifies where problems concentrate, typically in 2-3 areas. Both the work provider and receiver must agree on what "complete" means for these metrics to be meaningful. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Reflect and Disinfect Luca developed this daily retrospective practice where people share what was interesting about their work day without formal meetings. Inspired by both Scrum retrospectives and Toyota's focus on reflection and introspection, this 15-minute format answers three questions: what should we continue doing, what should we stop doing, and what should we start doing? The practice emphasizes that teams need moments to stop and think back in order to improve how they work. The informal nature makes it accessible to construction crews who might resist traditional meeting formats. Self-reflection Question: How reliable are the promises your team makes, and what patterns do you see in the reasons they're not kept? [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan sits down with Eric Burns, founder of Flowers Capital and a former firefighter turned full-time capital raiser. Eric shares his journey from managing student rentals and duplex renovations to raising funds for large-scale commercial real estate deals—an evolution fueled by burnout, curiosity, and a passion for helping others create passive income. Eric's real estate story began at the firehouse, where side hustles were common. He jumped into his first student rental without formal training, but with a clear goal: to build financial security outside of his career. Through direct mail and hands-on management, Eric gained valuable experience as a landlord. Over time, though, he found himself trading time for money and recognized it wasn't sustainable. That led him to masterminds, mentorship, and eventually commercial investing. Jonathan and Eric dig into how capital raising became Eric's focus and how he approaches it both as an educator and a steward. Eric walks through the importance of partnering with trustworthy operators, managing investor expectations, and matching each opportunity to an investor's goals and risk tolerance. They also cover how mastermind communities helped Eric sharpen his skills and find alignment with top-tier operators. Throughout the conversation, Eric emphasizes relationships over returns. Whether it's vetting sponsors, working with new passive investors, or evaluating deals, he's focused on long-term partnerships. He also shares why transparency, responsiveness, and investor education are at the core of how he does business. This episode offers a clear window into the real work behind raising capital and the mindset shifts that turn investing into a long-term lifestyle strategy. For anyone considering a move from active to passive investing or exploring syndications for the first time, this episode offers grounded advice from someone who has walked both paths. In this episode, you will hear: Moving from hands-on rentals to raising capital for commercial deals Choosing the right mastermind and finding trustworthy mentors Navigating early landlord lessons and learning to lead with service Evaluating sponsors based on integrity, not just performance Managing investor relationships through education and transparency Building passive income without sacrificing trust or long-term alignment Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

172. Navigating Perception in the Workplace This episode discusses the importance of perception in leadership and how it can be both a challenge and an opportunity. I share client examples to illustrate how managing workload, navigating confusion, and seizing leadership opportunities can enhance visibility and professional growth. The conversation emphasizes the need for intentionality in leadership roles and actionable steps to improve visibility in the workplace. In this episode: Perception can be both a challenge and an opportunity. Managing workload effectively is crucial to avoid overwhelm. Confusion in the workplace can lead to mistakes; clarity is essential. Leadership opportunities often arise from challenging situations. Authenticity is important, but intentionality is key in leadership. Delegation is a vital skill for effective management. Preparation for leadership roles can enhance visibility. Communication and positioning are critical for professional growth. High-impact moments should be leveraged for visibility. Every opportunity can be a steppingstone for future leadership roles.
