Piers Linney: AI Is Changing Business Forever — Most Entrepreneurs Won't Survive It Check Out Winn.Ai: https://winn.ai/?utm_source=wham&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=podcast-july Artificial intelligence isn't coming – it's already here. And according to former Dragons' Den investor and tech entrepreneur Piers Linney, it's going to separate the real entrepreneurs from the pretenders. In this episode of We Have a Meeting, Piers breaks down how AI is rewriting the rules of business – from how you build, scale, and pitch, to what investors are really looking for in 2025 and beyond. If you're building a company, raising investment, or trying to stay relevant in the age of disruption, this episode is essential.
In this powerful Season 4 kickoff, I sit down with the incredible King Christopher—a healing enthusiast, Jackson State alum, and stage three colon cancer survivor who shares his raw, unfiltered story of transformation, resilience, and surrender.From dropping out of high school to beating cancer and becoming a beacon of light for thousands online, Christopher brings depth, vulnerability, and a whole lot of soul to this episode. We dive into:How he survived cancer after being told he wouldn't live past 31The mental war of imposter syndrome and how he shows up anywayHis healing rituals when the world gets heavyThe spiritual and emotional power of surrenderAnd why being a “coach” is about more than credentials—it's about presence.This one is for the overachievers, the healers, the burnt out, and the ones who've forgotten how strong they really are.

En la música cada genero tiene su cabida, como en su momento lo fue la salsa de Puerto Rico, el merengue en Panamá, el Reggaeton y sus dos exponentes principales en Colombia y PR, lo es ahora el TRAP Colombiano, y para hablar de su éxito comercial a día de hoy, no podemos dejar de lado el nombre de Deezy y Prime Los Money Makers.En nuestra conversación en la mesa del negocio hablamos sobre sus primeros pasos; como Deezy empezó en la composición y por su lado Prime se dedicaba a ser DJ de Guaracha. También como, tras una dura experiencia la guía de un mentor los ayudó a encontrar su norte y encontrarse finalmente como Los Money Makers. Este dúo hace especial énfasis en la importancia de encontrar un color comercial único y explotarlo como su formula, sin dejar de explorar y aprender de otros sonidos. A su vez dejan sus recomendaciones sobre como crecer en la industria siendo productores y que hacer, según su perspectiva, si se quiere vivir de la música.Con Mauricio Velásquez y Sebastián Montaño.Musicalización y SFX: Andrés MontoyaContacta con Andrés para obtener más información sobre servicios de producción musical, diseño sonoro, grabación, masterización y más.
