Episode Description (2000 characters) This episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast marks the return of host Wize El Jefe after a brief hiatus, joined by the insightful Dr. Mark L. Teague. Titled “Traditional Values in Modern Business: Insights from Dr. Mark L. Teague,” the episode dives deep into Dr. Teague's extraordinary journey from his humble beginnings as a Texas farmhand to becoming a top finance executive, entrepreneur, and author. Dr. Teague shares vivid stories of his upbringing in rural North Texas, painting a picture of a life defined by hard work, community, and the ethos of “if you don't work, you don't eat.” These foundational experiences, rooted in agricultural life, shaped his character and instilled in him core values—honesty, respect, and hard work—that fueled his later success in the complex world of banking and finance. The conversation explores the challenges Dr. Teague faced while transitioning from the straightforward reward system of rural labor to the intricate, politically-charged environment of corporate America. He discusses the culture shock of encountering corporate trickery and the importance of maintaining personal integrity. Dr. Teague reveals how his academic background in agricultural economics equipped him with critical problem-solving and quantitative skills that allowed him to turn traditional values into practical strategies for building effective teams and business plans. Throughout the episode, faith emerges as a critical pillar in Dr. Teague's personal and professional life. He shares how grounding himself in something greater than material success helped him navigate the pressures of leadership. Real-world examples and honest reflections punctuate their discussion—highlighting perseverance, the vital role of mentorship, and the importance of learning from both success and failure. Listeners receive valuable advice from Dr. Teague on preserving work-life balance, prioritizing family, and building a meaningful legacy. He emphasizes that anyone, regardless of humble beginnings, can achieve lasting success by focusing on principle-driven problem-solving and personal accountability. He introduces his book, “A Working Man's Guide,” as a blueprint for the working class to marry timeless values with today's demands. This episode is a must-listen for leaders, aspiring professionals, and anyone struggling to find meaning and integrity in their work. With heartfelt anecdotes, practical wisdom, and a passionate call to uplift the working class, Dr. Teague reminds us that success isn't just about climbing the ladder—it's about staying true to who you are while you rise.

The best time for college retreats seemed to be at the beginning of Christmas break and return from that trip the day before Christmas. Was it successful yes... for several years. Was it worth it? For the students yes.... for my family who was very gracious to me? No. Why? Because all things in Jesus name are not necessarily the best thing to do. That sounds wild right? We did eventually move these trips to fall during spring breaks, but you have to use at least 2 different spring break weeks to cover a lot of the students since they were not always at the same time. The beauty of the Rocky mountains was always amazing! But... I had not yet learned the one rule, in which I will repeat over and over again for your sakes as leaders... and for you and your families health. ”You MUST say NO to something BEFORE you say YES to something else." FYI... That NO should be to some other equal project, ministry, or hobby that takes time from your family and health. All around health is important! Peter Drucker, the Father of  Modern Business and mentor taught Pastor Rick Warren that specific truth. He would always say, “Rick... Tell me what you gave up before you tell me what you are doing next." A few things... It was the best time to get college students enthused and signed up. It was a beautiful time of the year to hit the slopes. Students came from all over the United States and that enthused the local students. The Gospel was shared and souls were saved. What would I do differently now? I would never go at Christmas time. That time should have been reserved for my wife, children, and their memories. I would have moved it to every other year and not every year. _______________________________ Looking for a new student ministry resource? You can read my book “Burn Up Not Out: A Student Ministry Fire Builder's Guidebook” here: https://amzn.to/3PtBTIy Listen to more episodes from the Youth Worker On Fire Podcast here: https://bit.ly/3saDyYq _______________________________ EPISODE CREDITS Email us at: youthworkeronfire@gmail.com Hosted by: Doug Edwards Theme Song: "The One and Only" by The 808 : Listen to more at https://bit.ly/3FTYIAJ Intro/Outro Voiceover: Michael Helms : https://www.youtube.com/@MichaelTheSoundGuy  Edited by: Secret Roots Music House

I went through an orphanage and care, so I'm not ashamed to admit that I've worked hard and made money." “In a world where we've had a technology explosion, now we've got AI helping us particularly, that should make people more productive, shouldn't it?" "The first year is a research project, the first year is spending the money to find out if this is viable, that's what you want to find out as quickly as possible.

How can businesses safeguard themselves against economic uncertainties using the 831B tax code? Join us as we welcome Van Carlson, the innovative founder and CEO of SRA831B, who unveils the potential of this tax code as a powerful tool for business risk management. From the complexities of the 1986 Tax Reform Act to the practicalities of building a financial reserve with pre-tax dollars, Van breaks down how businesses can manage self-insured risks effectively. Traditional insurance markets often leave gaps, but with 831B plans, companies can create their own financial buffer to tackle unforeseen expenses and maintain business continuity. We illustrate this with real-world examples, such as auto dealerships and warranties, highlighting how these strategies mirror the operations of large insurance companies and benefit industries across the board. In our discussion, Van shares his fascinating journey from being a history teacher and football coach to becoming a trusted insurance professional dedicated to ensuring client success. The episode focuses on the importance of integrity, honest communication, and setting up sound risk management practices for small and mid-sized businesses. We emphasize educating business owners on the necessity of financial reserves, not just for physical damages but also for modern threats like cyber risks. By advocating for sensible regulations and tax incentives, Van and SRA831B are committed to equipping businesses with the tools they need to thrive amidst economic challenges, ensuring a legacy of sustainability and success. Tune in to discover how these insights can revolutionize your approach to risk management and secure your business's future.   Timestamps 00:00:00 - Introduction and Welcome to the Business Legacy Podcast 00:00:12 - Introducing Van Carlson and SRA831B 00:00:30 - Explanation of 831B Tax Code for Businesses 00:02:15 - Importance of Risk Management in Modern Business 00:03:45 - The Genesis of the 831B Tax Code 00:05:00 - Challenges in Traditional Insurance Markets 00:06:30 - Building Financial Reserves with 831B Plans 00:08:10 - The Role of SRA831B in Risk Management 00:09:00 - Real-World Applications: Auto Dealerships and Agricultural Giants 00:10:15 - Importance of Identifying Unfunded Liabilities 00:11:58 - Managing Insurance Policies and Risk Financing 00:13:20 - Advantages of 831B Plans in Risk Management 00:14:45 - Industries Benefiting from 831B Strategies 00:16:00 - Transition from Educator to Insurance Innovator 00:17:00 - Emphasizing Integrity in Business Practices 00:18:15 - Impact of COVID-19 on Business Risk Management 00:19:30 - Educating Clients on Self-Insured Risk Management 00:20:25 - Leaving a Legacy of Business Resilience 00:21:30 - Promoting Sensible Regulations and Tax Incentives 00:22:45 - Preparing Businesses for Cyber Threats and Emerging Risks 00:24:00 - Conclusion and Final Thoughts from Van Carlson 00:25:00 - Closing Remarks and Where to Find More Information About SRA831B Resources from the Episode:  Go to https://www.831b.com/ to find out more about what SRA 831 is up to.

Small business data is very different to consumer data. When a person is born, they don't need to go and open a bank account, obtain a line of credit or apply for some kind of permit. But a business may be three days old and want all those things. This creates a data challenge. This new business has little to no digital footprint and so the available data may be negligible. Which makes it hard and risky for banks and fintechs to work with them. Enter Middesk.My next guest on the Fintech One-on-One is Kyle Mack, the CEO and Co-Founder of Middesk. They are focused on business identity data and have spent a great deal of time and effort making it easier for banks and fintech to verify any business, including those that might only be a few days old. How they are able to do that makes for a very interesting discussion.In this podcast you will learn:The idea that led to the founding of Middesk.Why solving for business identity is so difficult.Middesk's three core product offerings.How they moved from fintechs to banks, to the mega-banks.The shockingly low percentage of new business bank accounts that are approved automatically at banks.The details of the report they send to their customers for each business.How they work with the business data they receive from state and local governments.The huge challenges of obtaining and working with this data.How they interact with those companies helping to create new business entities.Why they created their Address Risk Insights Tool and why it is important.How one address in Wyoming has 375,000 businesses "operating" there.How Middesk is working with lenders today.The scale they are at today.Why the incumbents have not created an offering like Middesk.Kyle's vision for the future of Middesk.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

HighlightsThe Significance of E-Invoicing for Modern Business (00:50)Hedin describes e-invoicing as an evolution toward an easier, more standardized way to exchange information. It can include all the documents needed during the procure-to-pay process.Electronic invoicing differs from traditional digital invoicing. E-invoicing started with a point-to-point connection. With e-invoicing, everything comes pre-validated because the invoice has to comply with certain formats, standards, and machines, such as ERP systems.Continuous Transaction Controls (03:50)Hedin provides a breakdown of the shift toward continuous transaction controls (CTC) and its benefits. CTC involves invoice data being transmitted to tax authorities in real time. He notes that governments getting more tax money is the biggest benefit; this is a main driving force behind the trend toward CTC. “It's a fantastic driving force that will not stop this steam train that started rolling,” Hedin says.This also introduces the business-to-government flow. Different countries can also have different country conditions. For instance, in some countries, before sending invoices, it has to be approved. Navarro acknowledges that this is an ongoing, evolving process.E-Invoicing Compliance Mandates (07:57)Hedin and Navarro share a few pieces of advice for how businesses can ensure they comply with e-invoicing mandates:Where is your business based and running? Organizations must have a very clear map this. Larger companies may have different subsidiaries with different legal backgrounds; business leaders must be aware of all of them.Where are you sending the invoice? There may be additional requirements to comply with depending on where the invoice is being sent.Find a partner that knows the legal frameworks of all the countries you work with. It's vital to stay up-to-date with the mandates in the countries of your customers and partners.While there may be challenges and growing pains with this, it will be helpful in the long run.Looking Ahead (15:36)Currently, there are a little over 50 countries that have government mandates. The expectation is that it will be well over 100 countries in five years from now. This is going fast and all the governments will want to jump on this bandwagon, Hedin notes.Navarro suggests that one day, “the tax office will be just another business party.” While businesses will have to invoice customers and inform their tax authority, in the end, it will save time with tax return processes. “Take the tax authority as a business party, and the CTC is going to help in that direction.”

Seth Godin: This is Strategy Seth Godin has published 21 bestselling books that have changed the way people think about work. He writes one of the most popular blogs in the world, and two of his TED talks are among the most popular of all time. His blog is at seths.blog and his newest book is titled This is Strategy. Seth writes this: “It's not clear to me why business plans are the way they are, but they're often misused to obfuscate, bore, and show an ability to comply with expectations.” In this conversation, Seth and I explore the key components of a modern business plan. Key Points Big problems require small solutions. We often skip strategy because most of us have trained our whole lives for tactics. A modern business is clear about systems and the status quo. Use the system if you intend to change the system. Assertions are the heart of a business plan. Leaders need to have empathy for someone else's “better.” Articulating alternatives helps you stay resilient when some of your assertions are inevitably wrong. Find people to support you who have a track record of shipping. A useful business plan gets easier over time and persists (any maybe even thrives) when the world changes.

Calvin Correli takes us on a journey that blurs the lines between professional aspirations and personal evolution. He discusses how early dreams of advising world leaders and a childhood intuition for spirituality took a backseat as he embarked on an American technology career, only to re-emerge and profoundly influence his work and life philosophy.

This episode peels back the layers of authenticity in the corporate landscape, with Correli arguing for a work-life blend where one's entire self is not just welcomed but necessary for success. We tackle ideas such as branding being the soul of a company, with anecdotes on Microsoft's branding journey and Zappos' corporate culture coup. Then there's the challenge of ignoring instincts and the paralyzing effect of shame on our work personas.

Cybersecurity is highly technical. You and I probably would not be able to understand a lot of the terms or systems or coding behind it. But revolutionary improvements come from the practical application of technology. So, how do we leverage the tech available to us in our own personal and professional lives? Is it truly the next step for modern businesses? In this episode, we bring on Darren Gallop, CEO & co-founder of Carbide, a company specializing in Information Security. His insight into the new communication age - particularly with the advent of AI - addresses how everyday security and privacy best practices are often difficult for the average human to make sense of. Security & privacy are simple ideas, but in practice, they are intensely complex. And businesses today can have very stubborn or "set in their ways" type of leadership. "No, it's my way, or the highway." But that often alienates the employees involved. 0:00 The Cybersecurity Business 26:34 AI & Cybersecurity Check out Dareen & his company Carbide: https://carbidesecure.com/ Take advantage of today's market conditions with our investing firm: https://cedar.cc/invest Find this podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SavingCapitalism Get more free resources here: https://ajosborne.com/
