What does it take to build a $100M company from scratch? That's what I wanted to find out when I sat down with Gannon Meyer. He's figured out how to turn social media attention into actual revenue. My guest today, Gannon, went from living with his girlfriend's mom to building a thriving business in just 12 months, and he credits a huge part of that transformation to what he shares in our conversation. We dive deep into his "free, segment, upsell" framework for converting Instagram followers into paying customers, and I even get a direct critique of my own content strategy. If you're looking to monetize your audience on Instagram, you won't want to miss Gannon's insights.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction01:14 Converting Instagram attention into revenue03:33 Client examples and creator income levels06:47 The "Free, Segment, Upsell" funnel framework08:39 Using open-ended questions for better segmentation10:50 How ManyChat and AI interpret responses13:12 Real-world example: Adrian's camera business15:52 Good vs. bad open-ended questions18:18 Crafting a CTA for your free content22:00 Storytelling frameworks for strong retention30:07 Maximizing engagement with Instagram Stories33:22 The impact of CTAs on Instagram reach35:01 Why comments are crucial for discoverability44:19 The truth about views vs. revenue47:55 Deep diving into solving problems for revenue51:08 How Gannon's 'whiteboard' videos attract clients53:22 Gannon's life transformation in 12 months58:50 The realization: being willing to be wrong in public1:04:15 The power of putting yourself out thereIf you enjoyed this episode, please like and subscribe, share it with your friends, and leave a review.

The modern idea of retirement was built on a bet that turned out to be wrong. It assumed people would spend most of their lives working and only a relatively short period of time retired. Instead, many Americans now reach 65 healthy, active, and with an entire third of their life ahead of them. Yet we're still using a retirement model designed for a world in which old age was shorter and fewer people expected decades of life after leaving the workforce.My guest says that outdated assumption creates some unfortunate unintended consequences. It causes people to stress excessively about money, postpone meaningful experiences with family and friends, and sometimes sacrifice the very things that make life worth living in the first place. He argues that by rethinking retirement — not necessarily eliminating it, but reimagining it — we can enjoy more of our lives now while actually feeling more secure about the future.His name is Derek Coburn, and he's a financial advisor and the author of Let's Retire Retirement. Today on the show, Derek explains why the traditional retirement model came about, why it may no longer make sense for many people, and how working even a few years past 65 can dramatically change the math of retirement planning. We also discuss the surprising psychological challenges many people face after they stop working, why purpose matters more than leisure, and how thinking differently about retirement can free you up to spend more time on what matters most right now — whether that's traveling, strengthening your marriage, or making the most of the limited summers you have left with your kids.Connect With Derek CoburnDerek's website (including his retirement calculator)Derek on IG0:00 - Introduction1:22 - The Outdated Origins of Retirement (Bismarck's 1889 Social Insurance Plan)4:12 - Why the Traditional Retirement Model Creates Stress and Anxiety6:13 - The "Arrival Fallacy" — Why Retirement Isn't What You Think It Will Be8:42 - The Psychological Crisis of Stopping Work Cold Turkey11:05 - The Math: How Working 10 More Years Cuts Your Savings Requirement by 96%13:21 - Enjoying Life NOW Instead of Deferring It to Retirement14:22 - Maximizing the Limited Summers You Have with Your Kids19:48 - Sponsor Break20:07 - What If You Hate Your Job?

In this episode, Caitlin Embree and Cory Pinegar, CEO of Reach, dive into integrating virtual support to elevate your dental practice management. With operating costs rising roughly 87% since 2001 and insurance reimbursements remaining stagnant, the modern dentist is getting squeezed. To maintain dental practice profitability, owners must rethink their traditional staffing models.Cory explains why conventional outsourcing fails and how embedding a dedicated virtual team member transforms your dental practice management. By delegating repetitive front-desk tasks, your in-office staff can focus exclusively on the patients directly in front of them, driving sustainable dental practice growth.Here is your blueprint for implementing elite dental business strategies using virtual support:Capture Missed Revenue: Over 60% of Reach's clients start by delegating inbound phone calls because the industry average for missed calls is 33%.Define Success Metrics: Before hiring, clearly outline whether your goal is saving money, buying back time, or driving revenue to ensure a measurable ROI.Customize Your Training: Provide the final 20% of practice-specific training, such as exact verbiage and software nuances, to fully integrate your virtual assistant.Embrace AI as a Tool: Combine the efficiency of AI technology with the empathy of human virtual assistants rather than treating them as opposing forces.Treating virtual assistants like actual human team members is the missing link in modern dental practice management.Ready to take the next step in your dental practice journey?

This episode contains some screen sharing so it's best watched on YouTubeWhat happens when one product leader decides to stop copy-pasting between chat windows and instead build an operating layer that puts coding agents in the hands of an entire company?In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with Kyler Ross, Head of Product at Cloaked, to walk through the internal “harness” he started building last Thanksgiving: an agent-friendly system of context files and scripts that lets agents read from and write to the team's real tools. Kyler explains how it gets installed on every company machine, why he treats each new agent session like onboarding an employee, and how a self-improving loop of skills and automated reviews keeps it getting better.They explore his day-to-day setup for running many agents at once, why worktrees and Claude Code hooks exist to make failure nearly impossible, a one-on-one prep skill that pulls context from every corner of the company, and the layered guardrails, including a nightly “librarian” agent, that keep confidential information from leaking.If you're a product or engineering leader trying to make your team more AI-native, someone wiring agents into real workflows, or anyone wrestling with how to run agents safely at scale, this episode is for you.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

Delaying Social Security is often one of the most valuable retirement decisions you can make. Want to learn why Social Security should be viewed as longevity insurance rather than a savings account?

Simplicity in Agile: The Art of Maximizing Work Not DoneSimplicity is preached in Agile, yet somehow, we are tangled up in complex system processes and frameworks. And if you've worked with Agile at scale, you've probably seen it: what started as a powerful mechanism for flexibility and speed now seems more like a convoluted system of frameworks, metrics, and reports, ironically complicating the very agility it sought to enhance..This paradox isn't just a minor hiccup. It's a core problem in the way Agile is scaled today. The idea of simplifying work gets lost under layers of practices and processes that complicate the very thing Agile is meant to improve: Agility.- [website] ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.agiledad.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠- [instagram] ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/⁠⁠⁠⁠- [facebook] ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/⁠⁠⁠⁠- [Linkedin] ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

How AI Can Accelerate and Improve Your Job Search ProcessSharon Hamersley discusses how we can all make the best use of artificial intelligence (AI) during a job search. With AI now part of our daily lives at home, school, and work, it's become an essential tool for job seekers and employers alike. Yet, for many, AI can also be intimidating, especially when it comes to writing resumes, preparing for interviews, and navigating online job applications.Across our conversation, we explore not only how AI can make your search faster and more effective, but also why it is crucial to maintain your own authenticity and judgment throughout.Understanding AI as a Job Search ToolRather than fearing AI, we should treat it like any other revolutionary technology of the last fifty years. AI is the "fourth industrial revolution," following the creation of machinery, the development of infrastructure, and the advent of computers.We talk about AI not as a replacement for human skill, but as a support tool. A fast research assistant and brainstorming partner. AI can process information quickly, identify patterns, and generate responses, but it's only as helpful as the clarity of the instructions you give and the critical thinking you apply to its suggestions.What AI Can—and Can't—Do for YouOne of the key topics we cover is the ways AI helps job seekers. AI can analyze job postings, pick out transferable skills, and suggest ways to improve resumes.However, AI cannot write your resume for you. If you ask AI to generate your resume solely from a job description, you risk ending up with generic, possibly exaggerated claims. This is a phenomenon we refer to as "hallucination," where the AI makes up details that don't reflect your real experience.Instead, AI's strength lies in helping you organize information, identify missing keywords, refine wording, and prepare for interviews. It's particularly useful for brainstorming bullet points, summarizing complex career achievements, and checking your material for relevance to a particular role.Using AI Ethically and Protecting Your PrivacyIf you use AI in your job search, you need to be careful about what information you put into the system. Always remove personal and proprietary data before uploading anything to an AI tool. By creating a plain text (.txt) version of your document, you strip away identifying markers, making it safer to use AI for feedback or analysis.Never feed sensitive information to public AI databases. If you don't want something available to the public, keep it out of the system.Maximizing the Benefits, Avoiding the PitfallsHere are practical strategies for using AI effectively:Use AI to identify gaps in your resume compared to job descriptions.Ask AI specific, targeted prompts; focus on context, specifics, and objectives.Double-check everything AI generates—treat its output as a draft or starting point, not a final product.Request citations or sources when using AI for research, so you can verify the accuracy of information.Remember, your own experience and judgment must lead the process. AI cannot think critically or judge what best represents your skills.Advice for EmployersWe discuss how employers can use AI to clarify job postings, but stress that AI should never replace human judgment in hiring decisions. Overly broad or unclear job descriptions harm both candidates and organizations. Employers should use AI to support—not automate—key talent decisions and ensure both sides of the interview bring their best, authentic selves.If you like this episode, please let us know. We appreciate the feed back, and your support of offset costs of producing the podcast!FAQ: Smart Ways to Use AI in a Job Search1. Can AI write my resume for me?No, AI cannot write your resume for you. According to Sharon Hammersley, AI can help improve resumes by identifying transferable skills and missing keywords, but it generates generic content and may overstate experience. You must always refine and personalize the output to reflect your authentic experience 08:07, 12:19.2. How can AI help me prepare for a job interview?AI can assist in preparing for interviews by helping you understand the real intent behind interview questions (the "question behind the question") and by coaching you to prepare stronger, more relevant answers 08:13, 17:37. It's especially useful for brainstorming and identifying areas where you can demonstrate your value.3. Is it safe to put my personal information into AI resume tools?No, you should never input personal, sensitive, or proprietary information into AI systems. Sharon Hammersley advises removing all identifying details and even using plain text files to anonymize your inputs, as anything entered may become public or used for AI training 14:10–15:57.4. How do I check if a job posting is legitimate when using AI or internet tools?Always verify a job posting directly on the company's official website. Be wary of recruiters using personal email accounts (like gmail.com) or asking for money to apply—these are common scam red flags 29:08–30:02. AI may help you gather research, but the verification step requires your own judgment.5. Can AI help employers with the hiring process?AI can help employers draft clearer job postings and identify required skills, but it cannot replace human judgment in hiring decisions. Employers should not rely solely on AI to recommend hires; thoughtful, human evaluation is essential to find candidates who fit both the job requirements and company culture 33:05–35:27.We would love to hear from you.Give us your feedback, or suggest a topic, by leaving us a voice message.Email us at hello@lookingforwardourway.com.Find us on Bluesky and Facebook.Please review our podcast on Google!And of course, everything can be found on our website, Looking Forward Our Way.Recorded in Studio C at 511 Studios.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming the way businesses create, distribute, and consume content. From marketing campaigns and customer communications to research, reporting, and creative storytelling, tools like ChatGPT are changing how organizations operate and compete in an increasingly digital world. In this episode of Let's Have This Conversation, I sit down with Edward M. Pereira, CEO of Financial Intelligence 4U, to explore the growing impact of AI on content creation and business productivity. As an accomplished financial and operational leader, Edward has built a career around driving organizational growth, implementing strategic transformations, and helping individuals and businesses make smarter decisions through education and innovation. We're also Joined by Attila Hevesy the co-CEO of Financial Intelligence 4U. Nothing beats experience as long as one learns, grows, and benefits from the time spent with the endeavor! Most of my life has been that of an Entrepreneur either starting, buying or taking over various businesses. That included a Specialty Trade Show Publication business (sold in 2005), several Direct Sales Companies as an Independent 1099 contractor and as a Corporate Recruiter and Trainer for said Companies. However, nothing matches the intrigue and fascination of the new Digital Money Revolution with Blockchain & Crypto! DEFI (Decentralized Finance), has ushered in a new era that levels the playing file so that the average "small guy" can get a shot at above average yields! A better world is coming within which to do commerce, safekeep critical information, and own a fraction or token of virtually any asset worldwide with the concept of tokenization & fractionalization! It is already here - you just may not know about it!! I now assist individuals on how to discover and take advantage of alternative investment strategies that the masses don't even know exist yet! Financial Intelligence 4U was founded on a simple but powerful question: You've worked hard for your money your whole life—has your money worked hard for you? Through financial education and practical intelligence, Edward and his team help people improve their financial literacy and develop customized strategies to pursue their long-term goals. During our conversation, we discuss how AI tools such as ChatGPT are reshaping content creation, improving efficiency, and creating new opportunities for entrepreneurs, marketers, educators, and business leaders. We also examine the challenges that come with AI adoption, including maintaining authenticity, ensuring accuracy, and balancing automation with human creativity. Additionally, we explore the evolving relationship between technology and finance, including the rise of digital assets and cryptocurrency. While cryptocurrency use for everyday transactions remains relatively low among banked adults, adoption is notably higher among unbanked individuals seeking alternatives to traditional financial systems. Join us for an insightful discussion on innovation, financial intelligence, artificial intelligence, and how emerging technologies are shaping the future of business and communication.

Watch or listen to episode 324 of the Digital and Social Media Sports Podcast, in which Neil chatted with Andy Zeilman, President of WMT Digital, and Chris Freet, EVP and Chief Strategy Officer of WMT Digital. Andy and Chris discuss how WMT has built a technology-and-data-first company inside college sports, and why the real bottleneck for athletic departments isn’t a lack of data but the ability to act on it. They break down the move from fan ID to fan intelligence, the push to reclaim fans (along with their data and dollars) from social media and back into an owned-and-operated ecosystem, and how AI is powering a fan data flywheel that surfaces new segments and behaviors. They also get into fluid fandom and what it means for college loyalty, where pro sports can actually learn from the innovators in college, and their own distinct paths into the industry. 87 minute duration.

Your Portfolio Might Be Worth Less After Taxes (Here's Why) Great investment management isn't just about picking strong holdings — it's about proactively managing the tax impact of those holdings, especially in taxable investment accounts. Without a tax plan, investors can end up paying the IRS far more than necessary when they eventually use the account.

The greatest risk we face today isn’t that AI is becoming “too smart”; it’s that we are beginning to treat this technology as an infallible “oracle” rather than a capable, yet fundamentally fallible, “intern.” As the baseline for production drops to zero, the economy of human value is shifting away from raw output and toward the only two things a machine cannot authentically replicate: judgment and intent. How should we use AI to augment and enhance our professional output, instead of simply automating  and potentially replacing our value? How can we navigate the “Calculator Trap” to ensure our foundational critical thinking doesn’t atrophy?   Join us for a conversation with Ted Yang, an MIT-trained engineer and seasoned entrepreneur who has founded more than twelve companies. A former finance executive at legendary firms like Bridgewater and Citadel, Ted is an Emmy-nominated author and a member of Connecticut’s Board of Regents for Higher Education. His new book, Ageless Peak Performance, provides a practical playbook for professionals looking to thoughtfully adopt AI to expand human capability and opportunity.

This week on the Do Good to Lead Well podcast, I sit down with bestselling author Eric Ries for a timely and thought-provoking conversation about leadership, mission, and the growing crisis of short-term thinking in business.Eric first transformed the entrepreneurial world with The Lean Startup. In his latest book, Incorruptible, he tackles a new challenge: why so many organizations lose sight of their purpose, compromise their values, and drift away from the very mission that made them successful in the first place.Together, we explore why many traditional business “best practices” are no longer serving leaders, employees, or society — and what it takes to build organizations that can withstand the pressures of short-term performance, protect trust, and stay anchored in their values over time.Through powerful stories, real-world examples, and surprising data, listeners learn how organizations can defend their mission, outlast competitors, and resist the economic “gravity” that pulls so many companies into compromise. From redefining profit as human flourishing to making trust and love into competitive advantages, the episode offers a blueprint for building companies that not only succeed financially, but endure.Whether you're a founder determined to preserve your mission, or an executive seeking to build a culture of integrity, this episode is packed with practical guidance and inspiration. Tune in to discover what it truly means to become an incorruptible force for the good of your business and the good of humanity.What You'll Learn- The perils of “best practices.”- Corruption isn't just a crime – It's losing your purpose.- How the moral logic of capitalism has been lost.- Redefining profit: Maximizing human flourishing.- Mission (not money) makes companies endure.- Trust and love are competitive advantages.- Governance isn't boring. It's your organization's DNA.- Does growth kill mission? The risk is real. The reality does not have to be.- You can build incorruptible companies: An evidence-based business case.Podcast Timestamps(00:00) - A Special Topic and Guest(01:49) - From the Lean Start-up to Incorruptible(04:07) - Defining and Diagnosing Corruption(08:32) - The Moral Logic of Capitalism and Value Creation(13:03) - Redefining Profit and Human Flourishing(19:15) - Mission Drift and Protecting Organizational Purpose(22:01) - Outliers: Exceptional Companies and New Best Practices(25:29) - Financial Gravity, Longevity, and Employee Ownership(30:00) - Trust as Organizational Currency(34:23) - The Long Term Stock Exchange and Long-Termism(35:20) - Love, People-First Leadership, and Real Competitive Advantage(41:23) - Governance, Board Dynamics, and Creating Incorruptible Organizations(44:46) - Lessons from Case Studies: Zita Cobb and Beyond(49:16) - Closing Reflections and Practical ResourcesKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Incorruptible, Integrity, Do Good to Lead Well, Long Term Thinking, Effective Governance, Market Reform, Lean Startup Method, Company Culture, Avoiding Short Term Thinking, Corruption, Capitalism, Value Creation, Shareholder Primacy, Business Ethics, Corporate Mission, Profit Redefinition, Human Flourishing, Stakeholder Alignment, Organizational Trust, Financial Gravity, Mission Controlled Companies, Organizational Character, CEO Success

Most founders start with the best intentions. And then somewhere along the way — without noticing — the company they've built becomes something they're ashamed of. Not because they're bad people. But because nobody taught them how to prevent it. Eric Ries wrote The Lean Startup — the book that changed how Silicon Valley thinks about building companies. His new book, Incorruptible, tackles the question that comes next: how do you build a company that makes money without destroying the thing that made it worth building in the first place? In this episode, Sophia Matveeva speaks with Eric about the practical techniques any founder can use today — no revolution in how business works required. Listen to learn: Why investors are not your bosses — and what happens when you treat them like they are How the most successful mission-driven companies are structured so they cannot make money any other way except by achieving their mission Why doing the right thing by your customers and employees is often the highest ROI decision you can make — just not on a short-term spreadsheet Eric also shares the story of a Texas grocery store that told customers to take their shopping home for free during an ice storm — and what that decision reveals about what it actually means to build with integrity.

Time management, intentional living, and stewardship are at the heart of this week's episode. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, distracted, exhausted, or frustrated by how quickly life is moving, this conversation is for you. In this episode, I'm talking about the ways our lives can slowly drift when we stop living intentionally. From overcommitment and people-pleasing to endless scrolling, burnout, and inconsistent habits, this episode will challenge you to stop reacting to life and start stewarding your time, energy, and priorities with wisdom. Real transformation rarely happens through giant moments. More often, it's built through small daily choices repeated consistently over time.  If you've been wanting healthier rhythms, more peace, stronger boundaries, or simply a life that feels more aligned with your priorities, I hope this episode encourages and challenges you.

Alan Delgado is the chef-owner of Los Burritos Juarez, a norteño-style burrito restaurant in Brooklyn's Fort Greene neighborhood. After an impressive career of working in restaurants in Austin, Texas and New York City, he began making flour tortillas in his apartment and operating a small burrito pop-up out the window.

Hilary Dubin is co-CEO and head of Jones' digital product & behavioral support program. She graduated from the University of Pennsylvania magna cum laude, majoring in cognitive science with a concentration in computation and cognition, an honors thesis on the effects of gender, realism, and role of virtual agents, and a minor from Wharton in consumer psychology.  She worked in David Brainard's visual neuroscience lab for 3 years and published 4 papers and supplementary materials on illumination discrimination (color perception). After Penn, she was selected as one of ten Americans to be a Ventures Fellow in the Excel Ventures incubator program in Tel Aviv, and continued on to be the inaugural member, and later program lead, of the US Associate Product Manager Program at Atlassian.  She worked as a product manager at Atlassian for 5 years, ultimately as Head of Confluence Editions & Admin Experience where she launched Confluence Premium & Free into multi-million dollar product offerings with 2M+ users. She hired & managed two PMs and lead a team of over 30 developers.  Prior to founding Jones, she and Caroline founded Cozier together, a sleep & loungewear brand designing ethical, effortlessly chic garments for every/body. Hilary started vaping casually in 2017 when the JUUL seemed relatively harmless and fun.  When the world went on lockdown in 2020, her casual vaping habit became a daily crutch for coping with stress and working from home. After over a year of unsuccessful cold-turkey quit attempts, she finally kicked her vaping habit in 2022 when Caroline suggested she try NRT.  Outside of work, Hilary loves hiking, backcountry skiing, trying to find the best burger in NYC, and playing with other people's dogs.

If you're like most working Americans, your No. 1 strategy for accumulating enough money to retire is by contributing to a defined-contribution plan such as a 401(k), 403(b), or the federal Thrift Savings Plan. Consequently, when you retire will depend largely on how well you manage your account. Robert Brokamp provides 11 tips for making the most of your employer-sponsored retirement plan. Also in this episode:-The S&P 500 is near all-time highs, but small caps and international stocks are doing even better so far in 2026.-A new study finds that retiring before 65 may accelerate cognitive decline.-The U.S. government's debt-to-GDP ratio is now over 100%, nearing the all-time high set after the end of World War II.
