Midway through this AFLW season, and besides from the indestructible Kangaroos, there have been some notable surprises.

Here's the deal—if your last quarter looks exactly like your first three, will you actually be happy with where you land in December? Or will you be scrambling like a college kid trying to write a 20-page paper the night before it's due? In this episode, April dives into one of the most overlooked success tools — the mid-year check-in. You don't have to wait until December to panic-sprint toward your goals. Right now is the perfect time to pause, assess, and pivot if needed so you can end the year exactly where you want to be April shares why so many entrepreneurs and high performers drift off course, how OPPs (Other People's Priorities) hijack our time, and why we're often convinced we're “behind” — even when we're not. She'll guide you through a simple but powerful reflection process so you can reset your trajectory and finish the year strong.

A special mid-year update with Jason and Louis Diamond on deals, transitions, and recruiting trends shaping 2025—and what advisors can expect in the months ahead.

JP Morgan's latest M&A report reveals something fascinating: despite ongoing uncertainty, global deal volumes hit $2.2 trillion (up 27% year-over-year).Here's what caught my attention: - Mega deals increased 57% because bigger players can thrive when smaller competitors freeze up. - Cross-border activity actually grew 24% despite rising protectionism as companies use M&A to position around trade uncertainties rather than avoid them. - And get this - AI infrastructure needs will drive $1 trillion in spending over the next 5 years, with data center capacity needing to increase 100-fold.Technology M&A surged 42%, financial services up 56%, and even media jumped 51% as consolidation becomes a survival strategy.The bottom line? Uncertainty isn't going away, but markets remain remarkably resilient. Smart deal-makers are learning to operate effectively in permanently uncertain conditions rather than waiting for clarity that may never come.Listen to my full breakdown on this solo DealQuest episode.• • •FOR MORE ON THIS EPISODE:https://www.coreykupfer.com/blog/JPMorgan2025• • •FOR MORE ON COREY KUPFER:https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreykupfer/http://coreykupfer.com/ Corey Kupfer is an expert strategist, negotiator, and dealmaker.

Nervous about the year slipping away without hitting your goals? You don't need to panic—you need a framework. This week we're revealing how to flip the idea of “silos” into a power strategy that will help you focus, finish strong, and fan the flames of your multipreneurial momentum.As the year winds down, many of us are nervously excited—or just plain nervous—about what's still on our plates. Haven't hit all your goals yet? Don't give up. It's time to S.I.L.O.No, not in the corporate sense of isolation and poor communication. In this episode, S.I.L.O. becomes your end-of-year power framework:S – Solitude: Calendar your F.O.C.U.S. time, extend your sprints, and align your schedule with what actually moves the needle.I – Innovation: Keep your strategy steady but shake up your tactics. Automate, research what leaders are doing, and bring new creativity to the table.L – Learning: Fill in your knowledge gaps. Use multimedia resources and let AI summarize the data so you can act faster and smarter.O – Optimize: Improve systems and leverage support. Whether it's automations, virtual assistants, or agentic AI tools, this is the moment to work smarter, not harder.This isn't about burning yourself out—it's about making deliberate choices that position you for success before the year closes.Action Step: Use curated ChatGPT prompts (yes, this is your permission slip!) for inspiration and motivation, then get busy executing. If you've been using ChatGPT for some time – at least several weeks, or a few months – to review or enhance your projects, job, content, etc., as promised, here's the insights prompt I used: Tell me something incredibly special or unique you've noticed about me, but you think I haven't realized about myself yet. It doesn't have to be positive, andyou don't have to be nice. Just be truthful.Divalicious Pro Tip: The timeline is tight, but you've got the right stuff. With focus, innovation, learning, and optimization—you can finish strong and start the new year ready to multiply your magnificence.Tags (Keywords) Multipreneurship | Women Over 40 | Goal Setting | End of Year Strategy | Focus and Productivity | Personal Development | AI Tools for Business | Finish Strong | Leadership for Women | Financial Independence | Entrepreneurial Mindset | Optimize Systems | Personal Growth

Can you have too much data for an AI application? In the mad dash to collect the raw material for AI applications, it can be tempting to pull in as much as you can. Product manager Emily Jasper returns to the podcast with a set of recommendations for more strategic use of data with host Eric Hanselman. Just as it might not be wise to load up on everything on a buffet, being strategic about using the data that best suits the goals of your project can improve outcomes and help to manage risk. By understanding the data that you're putting to work, you can bound the universe of outcomes and simplify the process of bringing it into the AI application pipeline. At the same time, the process of data governance becomes clearer when the sources are better understood.  Bringing an understanding of the set of data resources that an enterprise has is critical and has to be accompanied by knowledge of the quality of that data. The principles of library sciences are back in focus in AI, as organizations work to curate data characteristics and provenance. As in so much of AI, matching the ecosystem of tools, data providers, and capabilities to the use cases being built is fundamental to project success. Managing risk in AI has become a process of bringing the right data to the right problem.

According to the violent crime survey by the Major Cities Chiefs Association, there were 17 homicides in Portland in the first half of 2025 compared to 35 for the same period last year. That 51% decline is the largest drop in homicides among the 68 city and county police agencies represented in the survey. Aggravated assaults, rapes and robberies have also declined in Portland and nationwide, according to the survey.    Gun violence, however, continues to be a problem, with three firearm-related homicides recorded in Portland just last month. Ceasefire is one of the initiatives the city is pursuing to break the cycle of gun violence. Launched in 2023, it’s based on a national model that identifies individuals at high risk for gun violence and provides them with supportive services and intensive case management within their communities. Ceasefire director Sierra Ellis and Lt. Israel Hill, who supervises the Portland Police Bureau’s Focused Intervention Team and Enhanced Community Safety Team, join us to talk about Ceasefire and other strategies the city is pursuing to curb violent crimes.

The typical process of deploying technology has been one of enterprises designing infrastructure around vendor capabilities. The Open Networking Users Group (ONUG) was founded to reverse that equation and define enterprise requirements for technology and work with vendors to achieve them. Co-founder Nick Lippis joins host Eric Hanselman to talk about the approach that ONUG takes, the nature of its community and the work that they're doing today. While their roots are in the networking world, they've expanded to address a wide range of enterprise concerns. The current collaborations include security related work in cloud and security operations automation, WAN connectivity and a reference architecture for AI infrastructure.

Brian Thompson returns for a solo episode packed with practical advice to help entrepreneurs take charge of their numbers. In this mini masterclass, you'll learn how to use your profit and loss, balance sheet, and reconciliation reports more effectively. Whether you love or loathe spreadsheets, this episode gives you the tools to pause, reflect, and make strategic financial decisions to set yourself up for success in the second half of the year. How To Conduct A Mid-Year Financial Review 1. Reconcile and clean up your books First, set aside at least 90 minutes to focus without distractions. Before analyzing anything, make sure your books are clean: Start with reconciliation: Check that your accounting software matches your actual bank transactions and credit card balances. Review your categories: Go through your chart of accounts to ensure expenses are correctly categorized. Review your balance sheet: Ensure your cash balances, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other liabilities align with what you expect. If not, dig deeper to understand why. 2. Analyze your profit and loss statement Run a profit and loss (P&L) report for the period from January through June and analyze the data: Analyze your revenue: Compare your actual revenue to your goals and prior years. If you offer multiple types of service, break down which ones are driving your revenue and which ones may be underperforming. Analyze your expenses: Look for surprises, categories that you are over budget in, and for subscriptions or tools you no longer use. Calculate your gross and net profit: Ensure you are maintaining healthy margins, and if margins are shrinking, find out why. Look for trends: When looking at the big picture, make sure all the pieces fit together. For instance, if you're spending more on marketing as an expense, you'd expect to have a corresponding higher revenue. 3. Examine your cash flow Cash flow is not just about what you earn -- it's also about what you keep. Use the following steps to make sure cash is flowing into and out of your business strategically: Check your bucket allocations: If you use the bucket system, ensure you are still transferring funds consistently to your various business accounts and that your percentages are still realistic based on current revenue. Review your operating cash flow: Ensure cash is coming in faster than it's going out and that you aren't relying too heavily on credit to cover gaps. Check your accounts receivable: This step is one of the easiest ways to increase your cash flow quickly by following up on outstanding invoices and consistently enforcing your payment terms. Evaluate large expenses: Consider whether you should delay or accelerate spending based on your cash position. 4. Use your mid-year review to propel your business forward Once you understand your numbers in detail, it's time to turn your insights into action: Set or reset financial goals: Use your findings to update your targets for the second half of the year. Make sure your goals are specific, measurable, and tied to your broader vision. Identify quick wins: Look for easy adjustments that make a big difference. Small changes now can have a significant impact on your year-end results. Improve your systems: Make a plan to fix systems that aren't working. Good systems reduce mental load and improve accuracy. Communicate with stakeholders: Share your findings with your team, financial advisor, or coach. Reflect and celebrate: Take a moment to reflect on what is working, and celebrate the fact that you're engaging in this process.

Today was a special moment in the life of our church family. Back in March, Dale shared four initiatives that would shape the focus of our church for the year. These initiatives were not just goals on paper but invitations to step into renewal through Spirit led kingdom building. This morning, we celebrated how those initiatives are developing and shared how you can continue to engage in them.More than just updates, it was a time of rejoicing together in the rebuilding God is doing in His people. We heard stories of lives being transformed and witnessed baptisms—beautiful declarations of faith and tangible reminders that God is still at work, redeeming from death to life.As we gathered in one room, united as one church, we were reminded of the joy of belonging to this community. Our prayer is that you continue to carry that same spirit of gratitude and celebration, as together we look forward to all God will continue to do in and through Calvary Church.

If you listen to much of the media, you might feel the real estate market is on the precipice of another catastrophic crash, similar to 2008. In this podcast, Brian Buffini, founder and chairman of Buffini & Company, shares the real truth. Using well-researched data and stats, Brian discusses how the market is not crashing but is actually rebalancing back to numbers seen in 2019. He shares his forecast for the remainder of 2025 and into 2026, including home prices, median sales prices and mortgage rates. Brian also offers practical, strategic tips that agents can use when working with buyers and sellers, many of whom also have been led to false beliefs by doom scrolling, to help them understand the true housing market. He also introduces a major new campaign for Buffini clients, “Just 1,” that will help them use the power of working by referral to transform their business. YOU WILL LEARN: • The real data on the housing market including current stats and a forecast for 2025 and 2026. • How real estate agents can help their clients past doom scrolling and navigate them to successfully buying or selling a home. • How the “Just 1” campaign, based on Buffini's proven, repeatable system of working by referral, can transform your business and your life. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Just1 Campaign NOTEWORTHY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE: “We're back to 2019 now and by the way, a 2019 agent was far more skilled than a 2025 agent. They were far more professional called back on time, far more detailed and knew how to negotiate.” - Brian Buffini “If rates go from 7 to 6%, 5.5 million additional households in the United States will be eligible to buy a home including most importantly, 1.6 million renters.” - Brian Buffini “The key to this market for buyers is choice and for sellers it's about competition.” - Brian Buffini “Mortgage rates are going to hover between 6.25 and 6.5%.” - Brian Buffini “Just one referral can change everything.” - Brian Buffini Hosted on Acast.
