Hire Yourself Podcast with Pete GilfillanYou've worked your whole career to earn your seat at the table—but with the current wave of economic instability, government shutdowns, and corporate layoffs, that seat may no longer be secure.In this episode, Pete Gilfillan takes on the tough reality facing senior executives: uncertainty is the new normal, and even top performers are at risk. Drawing from headlines in Forbes, Politico, and The Wall Street Journal, Pete explores how today's chaos is reshaping boardroom dynamics—and why franchise ownership might be your smartest backup plan.In this episode, Pete discusses:1. Boardroom Risk is Rising Uncertainty breeds blame. If the board doesn't like the outcome—even if it's beyond your control—your position could be the first to go.2. Data Blackouts Lead to Bad Decisions In a world where compliance data and reporting are delayed or distorted, execs are forced to lead through a fog. Missteps aren't forgiven.3. Workforce Fallout Damages Credibility Low morale from layoffs or lost contracts—even when not your fault—can erode team trust and reflect poorly on leadership.4. Executive Cuts Are Often Permanent You're highly paid, and that makes you a target. Once your role is eliminated, it rarely comes back.5. You Need a Plan B Before You Need It Pete shares how executives are diversifying their income and creating security through franchise ownership—before they're pushed out.Key Takeaways:The corporate table is shrinking, and your seat isn't guaranteed.The board doesn't wait for fairness—it demands results, even in chaos.You need to start building something for yourself before you lose control.Franchising offers a practical path to security, income, and autonomy.The best executives don't wait—they prepare.“The question isn't if uncertainty will cost you your seat—it's whether you'll be ready when it does.” — Pete GilfillanCONNECT WITH PETE GILFILLAN:

WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT SUCCESSFUL LATERAL MOVES Making a lateral move can be one of the most exciting—and stressful—decisions in a lawyer's career. Yet many attorneys focus on the end result, like a new role or better opportunities, without carefully mapping out the steps to get there. Missteps happen more often than you'd think, and the consequences can be severe, from forfeiting significant compensation to facing contempt charges. From understanding partnership agreements to timing the transition, there are key considerations that can make the difference between a smooth move and a difficult one. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge podcast, Elise speaks with Tina Solis about why it's essential to approach a lateral move with the same care and planning you'd devote to a major client matter. Tina shares practical advice on how to prepare, avoid common missteps, and make informed decisions that protect your reputation, relationships, and future success. 1:51 - Current market overview for lateral moves post-COVID 5:41 - Timing and financial considerations before changing firms 10:18 - Four common reasons for transitioning to another firm 15:34 - How to prepare and do your due diligence before moving 19:24 - Professionalism and preserving your reputation when leaving 22:26 - What to consider with your new firm 23:59 - Common mistakes lawyers make during transitions 32:35 - Frequency and nature of lateral moves today 36:24 - Key advice for successfully making a lateral move MENTIONED IN THE LATERAL PLAYBOOK: WHAT LAWYERS NEED TO KNOW BEFORE CHANGING FIRMS Nixon Peabody LLP | LinkedIn | Instagram | Twitter/X Connect with Tina on LinkedIn Get connected with the coaching team: hello@thelawyersedge.com The Lawyer's Edge SPONSOR FOR THIS EPISODE Today's episode is brought to you by the Ignite Women's Business Development Accelerator, a 9-month business development program created BY women lawyers for women lawyers.

FBI Missteps & The Missing Clothes: The Cold Case of Sebastian Rogers True Crimers, welcome back to Break the Case. In this deep-dive, Jennifer Coffindaffer takes us inside the heartbreaking and still-unsolved disappearance of Sebastian Rogers, the 15-year-old from Hendersonville, Tennessee, whose case has gone cold — but not closed. We break down the FBI's newly released statement, including the errors that immediately raised red flags: wrong dates, wrong age, and shifting details about what Sebastian was last seen wearing. Was it a sweatshirt? A shirt with Star Wars, Minecraft, or Halloween graphics? Sweatpants or Adidas track pants? Even the smallest contradictions matter in a case where the truth has been so elusive. Jennifer also dissects the “bang vs. thud” discrepancy, the dashcam evidence from Katie Proudfoot's car, the controversy over why 911 wasn't called, and why phrases like “almost every home searched” simply aren't good enough. We revisit the flashlight theory, the “green hoodie” person at Texas Roadhouse, and how the FBI clarified — and corrected — some of the case's most persistent rumors. This isn't just about a missing teen. It's about accountability, transparency, and keeping Sebastian's name alive when the headlines have faded. With insights from former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, we examine whether this investigation has been thorough — or whether critical mistakes may have cost precious time and clarity. Stay with us as we push past the inconsistencies, question the official narrative, and continue demanding answers for Sebastian. Topics Covered: FBI mistakes in public releases Conflicting accounts of Sebastian's last clothing The “bang” heard the night before he vanished Dashcam footage & neighborhood search limitations Why the “green hoodie” theory collapsed The missing flashlight detail and what it really means Why Sebastian's case remains cold — not closed Sebastian deserves the truth. And so do we.

Welcome to the weekly wrap-up. If you were too busy putting out fires to keep up with my emails, consider this your cheat sheet—served with sarcasm. This week: what you're feeding your brain, Louis Vuitton's $160 lipstick, Taylor and Travis's engagement, and Chipotle proving once again they don't know beans about marketing. Oh, and the one lever that doubles your profits without breaking a sweat. Let's roll.”So, to sum up: feed your brain real strategy, not junk. Market to people with money. Control your story like Taylor and Travis. Don't waste time with beanbag gimmicks when you've got customers standing in front of you. And remember—raising prices is not optional if you want to double profits.That's the week. Now go do something smart with it.Sponsored byhttps://easternshorecarpetcleaning.comhttps://theexperiencereport.com

This week's World of DaaS LM Brief looks at new research from MIT, which finds that 95% of generative AI pilot programs inside companies are failing to deliver meaningful financial impact.The issue is not model quality but enterprise integration and a steep organizational learning gap. The report shows ROI is strongest in back-office automation even as most budgets flow to sales and marketing, and that success comes from buying specialized solutions and forming strategic partnerships rather than building in-house.Listen to this short podcast summary, powered by NotebookLM.
This comprehensive analysis weaves together several interconnected themes to paint a picture of a nation undergoing a profound shift. It begins with the jarring statistic of a 4.5 million voter swing from the Democratic to the Republican party between 2020 and 2024, a phenomenon the hosts attribute to the rise of free speech on platforms like X. This uncensored flow of information, they argue, is revealing a "woke" corporate and political agenda that is out of touch with mainstream America. The discussion provides examples of this disconnect, including the plummeting stock prices of companies like Target, Bud Light, and Cracker Barrel, which are criticized for prioritizing political correctness over customer satisfaction. It also details a business exodus from California, with companies like Bed Bath & Beyond and In-N-Out Burger citing the state's "unfriendly" business environment and crime as reasons for their departure. The transcript further delves into the immigration debate, highlighting recent federal crackdowns on illegal immigrants with criminal records and the differing policies of state governors. This is framed as a critical component of a broader effort to restore law and order and to protect American citizens and jobs. The hosts conclude by asserting that the "woke" movement cannot survive in a free media environment and that the public is finally seeing the "real" consequences of these policies.

Imagine discovering the hidden traits quietly sabotaging your leadership. This episode reveals the 11 risks that can derail even the most promising careers.Leadership failure rates remain shockingly high—studies show that 50% to 75% of leaders are ineffective. Why? Because their hidden personality-based risk factors are quietly sabotaging performance, communication, and team results. Most leaders don't even know these risks exist, let alone how to manage them. In this episode, we'll uncover what's really behind poor leadership—beyond skills or knowledge—and explore a breakthrough approach to improving leadership effectiveness at every level. You'll learn why traditional development falls short, how to recognize your own derailers, and what leaders must do differently to succeed. It's time to stop tolerating mediocre leadership and start raising the bar—with data, accountability, and coaching that goes beneath the surface.Imagine this: You're confident in your skills, respected for your expertise—and yet, under pressure, something subtle starts eroding your impact. Missteps you can't quite explain. Tension in conversations you thought you handled well. That's not bad luck—it's likely your personality-based risk factors at work. In this episode of The Hard Skills, we go beneath the surface of leadership. You'll hear why half of leaders fail—not because they lack ambition or know-how, but because of how their hidden derailers quietly sabotaged their performance, relationships, and results. We unpack the 11 risks that can wreck even the strongest careers, how to recognize them in yourself and others, and what to do to stop them before they stop you. At the end, our guest will offer a free eBook so you can start your own self-awareness journey!Nancy Parsons is a recognized expert in blending the science of assessments with the art of developing people.
