Matt Bair and Ryan Hedrick sit down to talk about something every caregiver dreads—relapse. What does it mean? Is it the end of progress, or just part of the process? They walk through it honestly, from both sides of recovery. If you're supporting someone who’s trying to stay clean, a relapse can feel like a gut punch. It’s confusing, personal, and it can leave you wondering if anything you’re doing is working. In this episode, Matt and Ryan unpack what relapse is, why it happens, and what you can do to respond in a way that helps—without burning yourself out or taking on guilt that isn’t yours. They talk about the signs to watch for, how to stay connected, and why relapse doesn’t erase the progress already made. If you're walking this road with someone, this episode gives you real insight, practical takeaways, and a reminder that support still matters—even after a setback.

He's the co-founder of Techstars, a prolific venture capitalist, and the author of nine books. In this episode, Brad opens up about the mental reset that came with turning 60, why he stopped chasing “more,” and what led him to dust off a book draft about mentorship that had been sitting on the shelf.

Life as an entrepreneur can often feel lonely. Being a solopreneur or small business owner in the meetings and events industry is a wonderful experience. However, with all the stress and challenges entrepreneurs face, they often find themselves alone, with no one to share their wins, doubts, and fears with.  In this episode, Eric reads an excerpt from the book he is currently reading and shares some valuable tips to help entrepreneurs avoid loneliness. Digital Nomads Unlike traditional nomads who rely on each other, digital nomads often go it alone. In his book 4000 Weeks, Oliver Burkeman explains that digital nomads, despite the appealing lifestyle, can feel lonely. They travel the world but miss the shared routines that create strong relationships.  Remote Work Without casual, in-person conversations, those who work remotely miss out on spontaneous connections. So entrepreneurs need to be intentional about meeting others and making space for interaction. Build a Circle of Advisors or Join a Community One solution is to create a board of advisors for your business. They should be people you trust and respect, and those you can share authentically with about the highs and lows of your business. You can also join a community of other entrepreneurs. The key is to make it a regular habit because if it is not on your calendar, it is unlikely to happen. Reconnect With What Matters Take time to pause and reflect on what truly matters to you. Ensure your daily actions are moving your business in the right direction, and keep your long-term vision in focus to remain grounded. Stay Flexible and Open Growth requires curiosity and adaptability. As a business owner, you must be willing to try new tools, adopt new services, and explore different ways of working.  Keep Your Vision in Focus  Regularly check in with your long-term goals. Stay open to learning and be willing to embrace new tools, services, and ways of working that support that vision.

Entscheidungen: Das Metronom unseres (Arbeits-)Alltags und oft eine echte Challenge.Schnell kommt im Team das Gefühl auf: "Nicht schon wieder endlose Diskussionen!" Oder: "Warum dauert das immer ewig?". In dieser Episode nähern wir uns der Entscheidungsfindung von allen Seiten – mit Anekdoten aus unserem Berufsleben, strukturierten Frameworks und konkreten Alltagstipps, die dich und dein Team weiterbringen.Du erfährst: Was unterscheidet eine Typ-1-Entscheidung von einer Typ-2-Entscheidung und warum hilft dieses Framework, endlich etwas auf die Straße zu bringen? Wir sprechen über Jeff Bezos, die RACI-Matrix, Runbooks und Standard Operating Procedures aus dem Operations-Bereich und Feuerwehr-Einsätzen und warum schnelle, aber gut dokumentierte Beschlüsse im Engineering Gold wert sind.Natürlich diskutieren wir auch Dinge wie: Sind synchrone Meetings wirklich der Heilige Gral oder kann Remote-Arbeit sogar für bessere, inklusivere Entscheidungen sorgen? Wie sollten Entscheidungen dokumentiert werden? Warum verlaufen Entscheidungsprozesse oft zäh, selbst wenn es "nur" um das Mittagsessen geht?Bonus: Ob 100% Zustimmung bei Entscheidungen überhaupt realistisch oder bloß ein Meeting-Mythos ist.Unsere aktuellen Werbepartner findest du auf https://engineeringkiosk.dev/partnersDas schnelle Feedback zur Episode:

Viele Führungskräfte kennen es nur zu gut: Die To-do-Liste ist endlos, der Kalender blockiert, Meetings reihen sich aneinander – und irgendwo dazwischen sollen strategische Entscheidungen, empathische Gespräche und der eigene Anspruch an gute Führung Platz finden. Am Ende des Tages bleibt oft ein Gefühl von Getriebensein – statt von Gestaltung. Hinzu kommt der innere Druck: immer präsent, immer souverän, immer produktiv sein zu müssen. Klarheit? Fehlanzeige. Zeit für sich selbst? Wenn überhaupt, dann ganz am Rand. Selbstführung – so scheint es – fällt dem Aktionismus zum Opfer. Und doch liegt gerade hier der Schlüssel: Wer andere führen will, muss zuerst sich selbst führen können. Unser heutiger Gast, Thorsten Reitz, ist überzeugt: Führung beginnt nicht bei Methoden, sondern bei der Haltung – und beim Mut, sich selbst ehrlich zu begegnen. Gemeinsam mit André Häusling hat er das Buch Radical Self Leadership geschrieben. Ein radikales Plädoyer für Selbstverantwortung, Reflexion und echte Klarheit im Führungsalltag. Was das konkret bedeutet, warum Zeitmanagement nicht reicht, und wie ein praxisnahes Modell dabei hilft, wieder vom Reagieren ins Gestalten zu kommen – darüber spreche ich heute mit ihm. Am besten gleich reinhören!

In today's episode of the Second in Command podcast, Cameron explores a common business gripe that everyone knows all too well: why meetings (or rather, the way they're run) are so unproductive. Cameron offers a fresh perspective by focusing on *why* this problem persists and how to fix it with simple, practical skills. You'll hear how he challenges the widespread belief that meetings are inherently awful, arguing instead that most people have never been taught how to run or participate in them effectively. Without that foundational training, leaders and employees alike contribute to the frustration, making meetings drag on or feel pointless.The discussion then uncovers some easy-to-implement habits that can transform meetings into productive, respectful experiences. From ensuring meetings end early to setting clear agendas with defined purposes and time allocations, Cameron shares real-world examples and personal coaching insights. These small adjustments not only help curb the common problem of lateness but also create a culture where time is valued and meetings are more efficient.This episode shows you how, by tailoring meetings to your true goals and attendees, your business can streamline communication and get better results—without sacrificing the human connection and spontaneous collaboration that meetings can foster.Know someone who runs meetings like a hostage situation?

Technology is no longer just a helpful tool for running small businesses. It has become the lifeline for small business success.  In this episode, Eric clarifies why technology is now non-negotiable when running a successful small business.  Tune in to learn why, as a small business owner, you must either evolve and adapt or risk getting left behind. AI Blackmail  An article on Entropic described a test scenario where AI named specific (fictional) people and made a blackmail demand. Even though the situation was fabricated for testing purposes, it highlighted the potential dangers of advanced AI behavior. A Double-Edged Sword Every major invention in history has had the potential for great harm and tremendous benefit. The outcome depends entirely on how humans choose to use these tools. AI is no exception. It represents a societal shift similar to the Industrial Revolution, with its presence growing across all industries. Today, adaptation is essential, especially in the meetings and events space, where technology is now deeply integrated. Those who ignore it risk becoming irrelevant.  From Fax Machines to Automation During his early business days in Brussels, Eric used to manually collect faxed proposals in the evenings after doing sales visits by day. Now, 70% of that work can be automated. Standard proposals and client-facing documents can now be systematized using technology, drastically reducing the time and effort required. People vs. Tech In the past, hiring a high-level executive assistant in Belgium came at a significant cost to Eric due to their high social security contributions. Today, however, business owners can find skilled virtual assistants anywhere in the world for a fraction of the cost.  Smarter Prospecting with AI Aspects of prospecting that used to take hours of manual outreach before can now be streamlined with CRM systems and AI. By scanning the online presence of a prospect through their LinkedIn profile, AI can recommend tailored messaging and communication strategies, making outreach faster, more personal, and far more effective. Embrace AI Now Now is the time to embrace AI and new technologies. Those who do so will be better positioned for success. So, whether you are starting a new business or evolving an existing one, tech literacy is a must.  Face-to-Face Is Still Irreplaceable Even with the rise of AI, the human connection is likely to become more valuable, not less, as people always crave genuine, in-person experiences.  Bio: Eric Rozenberg Eric is a business builder and the founder of Event Business Formula, the only platform exclusively dedicated to helping and supporting business owners in the Meetings & Events Industry.

Send us a textEver wonder why your meeting requests keep getting ignored? In this eye-opening episode, I pull back the curtain on what really happens when you pitch a potential buyer and why most approaches fail miserably. Drawing on my experience of receiving 10-12 pitches daily, I break down the psychology behind why the same boring templates and self-centered approaches get immediately dismissed.The truth is startling but simple: nobody cares that you're trying to hit your quota. Decision-makers calculate their time's worth in hundreds of dollars per hour and are naturally skeptical after past disappointments. When you ask for a "quick 15-minute call," they're mentally translating that to 30+ minutes and asking, "Is this worth $200+ of my time?" Without establishing credibility and differentiating yourself first, the answer is almost always no.I share practical strategies for standing out from the crowd by flipping the traditional approach. Instead of asking for time upfront, start by depositing value—share insights, provide unexpected help, or demonstrate you've done your homework. Connect every meeting request to a specific, better outcome for the buyer. Ask questions that make them stop and think, disrupting their automatic filters. Most importantly, meet them on their terms, not yours.The modern sales landscape demands a consultant mindset rather than product-pushing. Focus entirely on the buyer's future state and how your solution creates meaningful improvement from their current situation. This investment-first approach not only increases your chances of securing meetings but builds the trust foundation necessary for successful, long-term relationships.Ready to transform your approach?

David Erickson challenges legacy tech, invites the White House—and everyone else—to rediscover the power of voice “We're not a discount service. We're a better service built on a different economic—and it's time to bring back audio.” — David Erickson, Founder, FreeConferenceCall.com In a candid and compelling interview with Technology Reseller News, David Erickson, founder of FreeConferenceCall.com, joins publisher Doug Green to make a bold case for a resurgence in audio conferencing. Fresh off offering his service as a reliable alternative to AT&T—following a widely publicized White House conferencing failure—Erickson explains why many organizations are rediscovering the simplicity, reliability, and efficiency of audio meetings. With 25 years in the space and millions of users, FreeConferenceCall.com isn't just free—it's also architected for geo-diverse, high-definition, secure performance that Erickson claims outpaces legacy systems. Key Points from the Interview: Audio That Works—Every Time FreeConferenceCall.com is built on proprietary, cloud-native bridges with global reach and no moving parts. Result: better uptime, better fidelity, and support that actually answers the phone. One Number Simplicity New “One Number” functionality allows executives to join a secure conference call with a single SMS link—no access codes, no waiting rooms, no tech hurdles. It's already being adopted by C-suites, including a major U.S. airline. Video Fatigue Is Real Erickson points to rising “camsiety” and the hidden costs of video: delayed starts, distraction, over-awareness. Audio meetings, he argues, are faster to join, more focused, and better suited to today's mobile workforce. ⚙️ Built for Today, Not Yesterday Unlike traditional conferencing services that still rely on aging hardware or complex setups, FreeConferenceCall.com was designed from the start to be software-based, VoIP-native, and economically efficient. Not Just Cheaper—Better This isn't a stripped-down, bargain-basement platform. It's a high-performance conferencing service—offered for free because the tech and economics allow it. The Takeaway: Whether you're the White House, a 501(c)(3), or a startup, Erickson encourages everyone to try FreeConferenceCall.com—not as a replacement for every meeting platform, but as a faster, smarter, and more human alternative.

What if the missing link to scaling your business isn't strategy or hustle—but buy-in?In today's episode, I sat down with Dave Garrison—Harvard MBA, former CEO, leadership strategist, and author of The Buy-In Advantage.
