You're days into a work project, staring at a screen, feeling anxious about your tight deadline. Mid-afternoon your phone lights up with a call from a friend. You want to connect, but you feel like you don't have a minute to spare. You let the call go into voicemail. On the surface, this decision may seem inconsequential. But what if you knew that a decision like this, centered on an opportunity for social connection, could make a difference in the health of your brain? Would you make time for the call? Ben Rein is author of the book, Why Brains Needs Friends: The Neuroscience of Social Connection. He studies the impact of social interactions on brain health and helps us understand, at a cellular level, the biological importance of human relationships. After listening to this interview, you may find yourself picking up the phone a whole lot more.

Listen now on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.—In our conversation, we discuss:* Why traditional org charts and career ladders are breaking down and what that means for researchers and designers.* How AI and startup culture are reshaping roles, shrinking teams, and pushing senior-level decisions onto mid-level professionals.* Why most people feel unprepared for their new responsibilities and how to close the gap without waiting for formal mentorship.* How to build your own “board of directors” through small acts of generosity and curiosity.Some takeaways:* Org charts are collapsing and it's changing everything. Many companies, especially in tech, are shrinking their teams while still aiming for scale. That means fewer senior leaders and more ICs making high-stakes decisions without traditional support. The result: mid-level professionals find themselves thrown into strategy roles they never trained for. This indicates a shift in how companies operate at their core.* There's no playbook for where we're headed. You can't Google your way out of the complexity of hybrid roles. When someone's a lead on paper but making director-level calls with no mentorship, the usual advice doesn't cut it. People need better access to real conversations and fast feedback loops. Mindaugas recommends building your own crew of people to talk things through, not just reading another Medium post.* The people who navigate change best aren't trying to be the smartest in the room. They're collecting diverse perspectives, asking for honest takes, and updating their opinions as they learn. In a noisy world of LinkedIn hot takes, this kind of thoughtful input often comes from quiet backchannels. Building those backchannels takes intention, not perfection.* Don't start with the ask. Start with curiosity. One of the best ways to build strong professional relationships is to reach out with zero agenda. A quick note saying “I appreciated your talk/post/article” stands out precisely because nobody does it anymore. When you do that over time, you create a trail of goodwill so when the time comes for an ask, you're not a stranger. Mindaugas shares how this approach helped him build a global network from scratch.* Mid-level is now the pressure point of modern orgs. Senior ICs are being handed business-critical decisions without context, coaching, or peers to learn from. Community matters as a practical scaffolding for decision-making and finding those people is the key to helping you get to your next level, and push through that mid-level ceilingWhere to find Mindaugas:* LinkedInStop piecing it together.

Send us a textSeason 4, Episode 16 - When You Feel Stuck — Mid-Career Ministry Pivots and Possibilities.What happens when the ministry you began no longer feels like the ministry you can sustain? Mid-career is often when clergy feel stuck—worn down by conflict, weighed down by responsibilities, and unsure if this is really their calling for the next 20 years.In this episode, we unpack the unique challenges of mid-career ministry, share insights from recent clergy well-being research, and offer practical ways to discern, pivot, or reimagine your call. Mid-career doesn't have to be a dead end — it can be a doorway to something new.
You know Paula Joye as someone who ran Australia’s biggest women’s magazines—and as the expert in skincare, style, and wellness that she undoubtedly is. But today? We're not talking about glossy covers or celebrity interviews. Today, Paula is sharing the story that breaks us all open - losing your mum. Two years ago, an ordinary Tuesday night became the night that split Paula's life into 'before' and 'after'. In this conversation, she's opening up about that phone call, the impossible reality of learning to exist without the person who literally made you, and why grief feels different when you're stuck in the middle - caring for everyone else while falling apart yourself. This is about the messy, complicated reality of mourning whilst keeping your public face on. About how loss completely rewrites your priorities. And how Paula found the strength she didn't even know existed. You can follow Paula Joye on Instagram and find her beauty book Glow Up here.

The Mysterious Oregon Coast adventure is in the rearview mirror, but we always like to peek back before moving on. On this edition we marvel at the fun we had on a fairly cursed tour of some of our favorite parts of the Pacific coast! Bike prep is key — but stuff still breaks. Even a tiny crank arm pin can end a day. Know shops and backup transport. Have Plans A–F ready. Flexibility and quick pivots kept the ride alive when mechanicals hit. Buses & rideshares save tours. Coastal transit and surprise Ubers kept us moving. Greatest hits still feel fresh. Cape Lookout, South Beach, Newport — new vibes, upgrades, and slower pacing. Weather's shifting. Got one classic foggy Yachats day, but most were sunnier/warmer — pack for both. Shorter mileage = more joy. 30–40 mi days let us linger in towns and stay energized. Hydrate & fuel early/often. Morning “camel up,” steady snacks, and Red Bulls beat last year's bonk. Hotel nights reset morale. Lincoln City, Yachats, Florence stays turned stress into mini-vacations. Logistics flexibility saves cash. Mid-trip flight/car/hotel changes avoided big losses. Ditch the perfect plan. Embracing detours and improvisation brought back the adventure and fun

With over 30 years in wireless—from helping pioneer intercarrier SMS to running mobile identity operations across Americas and Asia Pacific — Eddie DeCurtis saw what others missed: 967 of 1,000 global mobile network operators lack the infrastructure to monetize CPNI data while protecting customers from fraud. The technical challenge isn't building APIs. It's that operators spent billions on 5G infrastructure and now lack capital, internal expertise, and operational frameworks to launch authentication services. In 18 months, Shush went from PowerPoint to 30 employees, supporting 47 network APIs with full GSMA Open Gateway compliance. Eddie shares how understanding regulatory frameworks by jurisdiction, not just deploying technology, became their competitive moat—and why hiring the executive who built T-Mobile USA's authentication platform gave them credibility no competitor could match. Topics Discussed: Why operators repeatedly said "we want to do it, we have no idea how, we have no money, we don't have a platform" Validating the thesis with former AT&T Communications CEO John Donovan before launching Securing a POC with a major operator pre-incorporation—with only a PowerPoint deck The three-legged stool: technology, network integration, and business operations (where competitors fail) Why knowing privacy regulations for CPNI data sharing by country became a deal-closer Reducing network integration from dozens of touchpoints to three specific network elements Supporting 8 Linux Foundation Camara APIs and TS.43 GBA AKA authentication standard Going from 3 to 30 employees and launching at Mobile World Congress on a $75/night Airbnb budget GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Validate with the person most likely to kill your idea: Eddie deliberately chose John Donovan—former CEO of AT&T Communications, board member at Lockheed and Palo Alto Networks—specifically because "he's going to be rough, he's going to totally ask the really hard questions." When Donovan's response was "go raise $40 million and own this space...you're not going to be alone for long," the validation carried weight because it came from someone incentivized to find fatal flaws. Most founders validate with friendly audiences or investors looking for deals. Find the battle-tested executive who has nothing to gain from being kind. Convert pre-product conviction into design partner commitments: Eddie secured a POC agreement with a major operator before Shush incorporated. "I had nothing. I didn't have software. We had an idea, we had a PowerPoint presentation." This only works when you've spent decades building domain expertise and relationships. The lesson isn't "sell vaporware"—it's that deep industry knowledge lets you articulate problem-solution fit so precisely that sophisticated buyers commit before seeing code. Infrastructure founders with 10+ years in-market can accelerate 12-18 months of product-market fit by converting expertise into early design partnerships. The enterprise moat is operational knowledge, not technical capability: Eddie's thesis: "Anybody can come up with the technology. You walk down the street in the Bay Area, 10 developers will develop it for you." Shush differentiated by answering questions competitors couldn't: How do you price SIM swap detection per query? What are CPNI data sharing regulations in Indonesia versus Brazil? How do you navigate internal stakeholder alignment across legal, privacy, and regulatory teams at a tier-one operator? When Eddie told an operator "here's the privacy rules for your country" after they admitted "I have no idea," he closed a knowledge gap that pure technology vendors can't fill. In regulated infrastructure markets, execution expertise beats technical superiority. Target the ambition-capability gap in capital-constrained buyers: Operators told Eddie the same story: eager to launch authentication services, zero clarity on execution, budgets decimated by 5G spending. This created perfect conditions for a full-stack solution. "Mid-market is hard because you have a buyer with problems that are not basic anymore, but they lack the ability to execute." Shush didn't sell point solutions—they delivered technology, integration, and business operations as a turnkey package. Identify buyers with sophisticated needs, strong intent, and constrained internal resources. That's where full-stack platforms win over point tools. Hire the operator who ran your exact use case at scale: Eddie cold-called John Morrowton, who "built this actual product and service offering at T-Mobile USA, from its inception to its execution and ran it for four years." His pitch: "I'm Eddie DeCurtis, how are you? You want a job? You're Chief Product Officer." Hiring someone who'd operationalized authentication services at a tier-one carrier gave Shush instant credibility with operator buyers and compressed years of trial-and-error into institutional knowledge. In infrastructure sales, hiring executives from reference customers eliminates "can you actually do this" objections before they surface. Minimize integration surface area to accelerate deployment: Mobile operators run highly secure networks with limited external access points. Shush "narrowed it down to three network elements that we can communicate with to provide all 47 APIs." Fewer integration points means faster deployment, lower implementation risk, and reduced operator IT overhead. This architectural decision became a sales accelerator. Infrastructure founders: identify the minimal viable integration that unlocks maximum API coverage, then make that your differentiated deployment story. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Mike Nellis has raised over $1 billion for progressive campaigns and causes. As the founder of Authentic and former Senior Advisor to Vice President Kamala Harris, he's seen what work — and what doesn't — in digital fundraising. In this conversation, we explore what nonprofits can learn from campaign strategy, the dangers of volume-driven marketing, and why authenticity might be the only sustainable advantage left.Notable Quotes"The biggest thing that moves the needle is volume. It matters a lot more how many times you're posting than the quality of the content." — Mike Nellis [6:25]"Running an ethical and effective fundraising program that's rooted in storytelling can raise you a lot more money than the churn and burn stuff. If you build it over time, you raise more money." — Mike Nellis [5:46]"I can't stop Donald Trump from being the tyrant that he is. But a lot of times people ignore their physical and mental health, ignore their family, ignore their community when they could strengthen all those relationships. You want to make the world a better place?

James Fletcher is the founder of Ethos Investment Management, based in Salt Lake City. He has over 19 years of investing in Emerging Market and was previously Director and Senior Portfolio Manager of the $1billion EM Small and Mid-cap fund at APG Asset Management. Our conversation starts with the seeds that started James's passion for Emerging Markets – an extended stay in Brazil, where he learned to speak Portuguese and was entirely immersed in the brands and consumer culture of the dynamic country. This led to a hunger to uncover what is less well known about regions under the Emerging Markets umbrella, and we dive in to this – including the unique, research driven, approach that the team takes at Ethos. We also refer to the origins of the name – it defines both their approach to investment management and portfolio construction as well as the ethos of the companies they invest in – companies committed to their mission, with honesty and integrity.We move then another passion – James is also the founder of Young Investors Society (www.yis.org). Young Investors Society has become a leading global Financial Literacy organization teaching financial literacy and long-term investment skills to high-school students in over 1,000 high-schools across the world. We hear about lives changed and the impact felt by giving an opportunity to thousands of young people and about the power of lighting the spark for investing. With thanks to Baillie Gifford for sponsoring Series 4 of 2025. Baillie Gifford is a long-term investment manager, dedicated to discovering the innovations and changemakers that deliver exceptional growth opportunities for its clients.

Dr Stacy Sims knows more about women's fitness than pretty much anyone we've ever spoken to. She's the exercise expert who went viral for her breakfast routine, but that's just the beginning. Dr Sims is an exercise physiologist and nutritional scientist who's become the go-to authority for grown-up women navigating fitness in 2025. In this conversation, Stacey shares why so much mainstream fitness advice is complete bullshit for women. She explains how ice baths, fasting, and soul-crushing cardio weren't designed for female bodies, and why "shrinking and pinking" men's advice doesn't serve us. You're going to hear about the surprising differences between male and female physiology, why women aren't just "small men" when it comes to health, and what we actually need to feel vibrant and strong.

In this episode, Michelle and Chase sit down with Amber Watts to explore a transformative approach to employee development: Everboarding. Amber shares insights from her book From Onboarding to Everboarding: Redefining Employee Development, challenging traditional views of onboarding as a one-time event and reframing it as a strategic, ongoing process that fuels long-term performance, retention, and growth. Key Takeaways: Everboarding begins after the welcome packet. It's about building systems that evolve with your people. Onboarding is a strategy, not an event. Leaders play a critical role in reinforcing key messages and creating a culture of continuous enablement. It's a relay, not a race. Ownership of development shifts across HR, L&D, employees, and leaders, each carrying the baton at different stages. Mid-career professionals matter too. Everboarding isn't just for new employees, it's about staying adaptive, relevant, and growth-focused throughout an employee's journey. Growth is self-driven, but leaders are powerful partners. Development isn't always about promotion, it can be about deepening expertise and staying engaged. You don't need a program - you need a plan. Amber shares practical advice for organizations to implement an everboarding strategy. Everboarding is a growth lever for organizations. It shifts the focus from simply getting someone started to keeping them growing, a mindset that's essential in today's fast-changing workplace.

When to Move Beyond QuickBooks -CFO Insights for Growing Businesses EP321 of Profit With A Plan Podcast Released September 30, 2025 Guest: Laresa McIntyre - Founder and Fractional CFO | Rockbridge CFO Host: Marcia Riner- Business Growth Strategist | Infinite Profit®
In 1987, friends Patty Kratochvil and Carolyn Dotson opened Threads of Memories Antique Mall in Brookings, South Dakota, with a simple idea: combine alterations with the love for antiques—and keep them in the community. Fast forward to 2021, Carolyn's daughter, Emily Braun, took over the shop and continues the legacy with her own modern touch.In this episode, Emily and I talk about the journey stepping into small business ownership in the Midwest, how she curates what fills the store, and the difference between antiques, vintage, and thrifted items. She shares why she values supporting local shops that complement hers, how her mom and Patty came up with the store's name, and how her popular “What's New Wednesday” on social media helps connect treasures with new homes. You'll learn about design trends—like the ever-present enthusiasm for Mid-century modern, the comeback of record players, vinyl, and green Depression glass—and which items have phased out. Emily offers advice for downsizing or inheriting family heirlooms (including why some things aren't worth as much as we hope), and a few lesser-known suggestions for where to donate pieces you might not be able to keep.Of course, we talk food too. Emily shares memories of her mom's deviled eggs, her dad's famous meat marinade, apple crisp, and Thanksgiving at the farm. You'll find her dad's recipes for buttermilk waffles and the meat marinade, and Emily's modified Pioneer Woman recipe for spinach dip on randomsweets.com. Plus, Emily lets us in on a hidden gem where she enjoyed a delicious chicken salad sandwich and the best pickle spear—a cozy spot off Highway 19 in Redwood Falls, Minnesota. If you love antiques, small business stories, Midwest living, or simply the memories tied to the things we treasure, this conversation will feel like wandering the aisles of your favorite antique shop with a couple of friends.

Leadership isn't about being right—it's about being real. Angie Lyon, Chief Soul Officer at Black River Performance Management and host of the Leader U Podcast, went from high-stakes operating rooms to transforming leadership teams. In this raw conversation, she reveals why 87% of leaders struggle with imposter syndrome and what to do about it. What You'll Learn: Transitional Intelligence (TQ) - The critical skill that helps leaders navigate change with intention instead of chaos, and why it's different from emotional intelligence The root cause of leadership struggles - Why most challenges trace back to feeling "not enough" or "not safe," and how to break free from these limiting beliefs Creating micro-cultures of excellence - How one self-aware leader can build a thriving team even inside toxic organizations AI-proof leadership skills - The human capabilities (empathy, communication, self-awareness) that will make you irreplaceable in an AI-driven world The unlearning paradox - Why authentic leadership requires shedding the habits that got you here From proving to improving - How to shift from external validation to internal growth and confidence Key Insights: Angie shares her journey from surgical technologist to leadership expert, revealing what she learned watching leaders in life-or-death situations. "One good leader can create a culture where people thrive," she explains. "But leaders stuck in fear mode create environments where people make more mistakes." She introduces the concept of Transitional Intelligence—your ability to move through change without losing yourself. While Emotional Intelligence helps you feel your way through moments, Transitional Intelligence helps you move through them, especially in the messy middle of transition. The conversation gets real about vulnerability, ego, and the courage to ask: "Do I want to be right, or do I want this relationship?" Perfect for: Mid-to-senior level managers, entrepreneurs, executives, team leads, HR professionals, and anyone committed to becoming a more self-aware, resilient, and human-centric leader. About Angie Lyon: Angie is a certified surgical technologist turned leadership development expert, recognized as Woman of Influence in Entrepreneurship (2021). Her upcoming book "Emerge: Charting Waters to Discover Your Best Self" releases September 2025.

A story about rejecting the magic wand approach to AI—and building something businesses can actually use.This episode is for Mid-market SaaS founders tired of AI hype who want to build something that creates real customer value—not just impressive demos.Most SaaS companies don't fail because of bad tech. They fail because they chase hype over value.Zohar Bronfman, CEO of Pecan AI, took a different path. After years researching AI and philosophy in academia, he saw Amazon, Uber, and Spotify dominating with predictive AI—while thousands of smaller companies couldn't even get started. Instead of building another "AI for everything" platform, he focused obsessively on one thing: making predictive AI accessible to mid-market companies who couldn't afford data science teams.And this inspired me to invite Zohar to my podcast. We explore why curiosity beats strategy when building in uncertain markets. Zohar shares hard-won insights about deprecating profitable features, why small teams outperform large ones, and how to identify which enterprise capabilities actually matter for mid-market customers. You'll discover why Pecan almost never loses customers—despite operating in the brutally competitive AI space.We also zoom in on two of the 10 traits that define remarkable software companies:Trait #2: Be valuable and desirableTrait #6: Create fans, not just customersZohar's story is proof that sustainable growth comes from solving real problems—not riding waves.Here's one of Zohar's quotes that captures his philosophy:"You can sell things, especially to larger organizations. You can sell things that actually don't have ROI. You can sell things that either look shiny, sound shiny or smell shiny, or all of the above. But ultimately, if you put yourself in a rigorous test, did I make a change? Did I actually add value to the system? The answer could have been no in many cases."By listening to this episode, you'll learn:Why killing profitable features strengthens retentionWhat happens when you ignore VCs' market adviceWhen customer honesty beats sales promisesWhy hiring slower creates faster growthFor more information about the guest from this week:Guest: Zohar Bronfman, CEO Pecan AIWebsite: pecan.ai
I am excited to kick off the brand-new Mid-Career Podcast Series, where I dive into the realities of academic life after tenure. Mid-career is the longest stretch of the academic journey, often 15 to 20 years, and while it brings stability and experience, it can also feel like uncharted territory. Many academics discover that the freedoms they imagined post-promotion are replaced with heavier workloads, shifting priorities, and the lingering question of what's next. In this first episode, I lay the groundwork for what mid-career really looks like and why it matters. I'll talk about the gap between expectation and reality, the identity shifts that happen when the tenure track drive fades, and the surprising ways burnout shows up even after achieving major milestones. Most importantly, I'll introduce how to think about mid-career not as a plateau, but as a phase filled with opportunities to realign, reset, and build skills that sustain your academic life for the long haul. Tune in to start reframing mid-career on your own terms and hear sneak peeks of the insights and stories I will share throughout this series. For full show notes visit scholarsvoice.org/podcast.

Text us a pool question!Hosts: Andrea & Paulette Cameo: Rudy with Joe Trusty (Pool Magazine / PoolMarketing.com) Sponsor: Revvdup ApparelAndrea and Paulette kick off with shop talk, cooler temps, and a spike in phosphate readings. They unpack the long-running “are phosphates a thing?” debate, why South Florida sees big swings, and how phosphates intersect with salt systems, algae control, and filter life. Mid-show, Rudy drops in a short interview with Joe Trusty on where AI is already helping pool pros.

Mid-sized law firms are facing pressure from every direction. Associates are poached with six-figure pay bumps, partners are stretched thin between billing and management, and specialty practices vanish without succession plans. At the same time, clients expect broader reach and deeper benches than many firms can deliver. In this episode, host Chris Batz shares what he's hearing directly from managing partners and executive committee members across the country. He outlines the squeeze mid-sized firms are feeling - lagging organic growth, talent retention challenges, leadership burnout - and the difficult choices leaders are weighing: scale up, go lean, or join a larger platform. Chris also looks at the emerging role of private equity in law firm ownership and the ripple effects it could have on culture, compensation, and competition. Along the way, he points out steps firms can take now: sharpen strategic vision, invest in leadership and succession, strengthen recruiting systems, and pursue growth through the right mergers or acquisitions. At its heart, this episode asks a question every firm should confront: how do you stay competitive without exhausting the people who make your firm strong?
