In this episode of the Insurance Town Podcast, I sit down with Clint Houke for a wide ranging, high trust conversation to kick off the new year the right way. This is one of those talks that feels like two industry vets standing at the whiteboard, talking honestly about what is working, what is changing, and where the real opportunities are.Clint and I dig into the trends he is seeing across the insurance landscape, especially around MGAs and why they continue to play such a critical role in today's market. We talk about speed, specialization, and why MGAs are not just filling gaps, but actively shaping the future of distribution.From there,  how agencies, MGAs, and carriers can think about AI as a tool to enhance relationships, not replace them. The conversation then turns to Clint's newest chapter and his work with FAIR. We talk about what FAIR is building, why it matters, and how it is creating real opportunity in the insurance space. This is not just another product. It is a business model that opens up meaningful new revenue streams while staying aligned with transparency and customer experience.What stood out most in this conversation is Clint's perspective on timing. The industry is changing fast, but the fundamentals still matter. Relationships. Trust. Doing right by the client. FAIR feels like one of those companies that understands both sides of that equation.If you are an agency owner, producer, MGA leader, or anyone looking to add smart, sustainable growth to your business, this episode is worth your time.Pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee, and join us in Insurance Town for a conversation about trends, technology, and finding opportunity in a changing market.Welcome back to town.Sponsors:Smart Choice- the Fastest growing agency Network hands downMAV- Ditch the Call center and Hire Mav the AI solution to engaging your clients Canopy Connect - The One Click Solution to getting dec pages you need to quote your clients. 

A new year always brings with it a sense of possibility. It's that “that was then, this is now” moment where you get to draw a line in the sand and decide what happens next. But let's be honest, for many salon owners right now, business feels tougher than ever. Clients are cautious, bookings feel unpredictable, and the world around us feels uncertain.In this episode, I talk about the reality of running a salon in times like these and why focusing on everything outside your control is a guaranteed way to feel overwhelmed. Global uncertainty, economic pressure, and changing consumer behaviour are real, but they're not where your power lies.Instead, I break down exactly what is within your control, both as a salon owner and as a stylist. Because when you focus on the controllables, the systems, the standards, the leadership, and the client experience, you put yourself back in the driver's seat. And when you do that, growth isn't just possible. It's predictable.IN THIS EPISODE:[01:43] The reality that many salon owners are facing right now[02:23] Not everyone is struggling, why that matters[03:06] Why being in business has always been hard[03:32] Global uncertainty and its impact on client spending[04:17] What you can control vs what you can't[04:50] Control the controllable, leadership starts here[05:09] What stylists are in control of every single day[07:42] What salon owners are in control of[09:32] Why focusing on the controllables guarantees growthWant MORE to help you GROW?

Joshua 24:14-15 - "A New Year, A New Opportunity to Serve the Lord"

The brands that will thrive in the next era of commerce understand that context drives everything, from platform choice to storytelling and trust formation. As a result, success hinges on a brand's ability to serve customers across multiple contexts rather than controlling single experiences.For the season finale, Commerce CEO Travis Hess joins Phillip and Lindsay to explore what it means when "the customer is the channel." The conversation tackles designing for AI agents alongside humans, reaching customers across surfaces independent of purchase location, and balancing data-driven marketing with authentic storytelling. Travis shares why brands must embrace agentic commerce now, and the mindset shifts required for 2026, synthesizing the season's insights into actionable guidance.The Customer is the ChannelKEY TAKEAWAYSOmnimodal commerce shifts focus from channels to surfaces where customers engage across contexts.Design for agents, not just humans.

Rob Allen is CEO of Intermountain Health, one of the nation's largest and most innovative health systems. In this episode, host Anne Hancock Toomey talks with allen Allen about his journey from growing up on a dairy farm in Wyoming to becoming a healthcare CEO at the age of 28. And if you're thinking you've heard the farm-to-CEO story before, you'd be right. Several of Anne's Backstory guests come from a similar background and here, they discuss parts of that life that may point people to careers in executive leadership. Beyond that, Allen discusses the valuable lessons learned from his rural upbringing, the various roles he undertook in healthcare from nursing homes to hospitals, and his commitment to servant leadership. He delves into his early career challenges, including turnarounds of financially struggling hospitals, the significance of a people-first mindset, and the necessity of addressing the correct problems in leadership. As he recounts his progression through different roles at Intermountain Health, Rob emphasizes the importance of transparency, hope, and engaging employees to achieve organizational success. He also opens up about balancing his demanding career with family life and offers advice for aspiring leaders. The conversation highlights Rob's visionary approach in simplifying healthcare and expanding proactive care, and the importance of authenticity, purpose, and compassion in leadership. 2:24 Early Life on the Farm 6:35 Influential Figures 8:38 College Years and Career Beginnings 11:40 Transition to Healthcare Administration & Leadership Challenges 17:28 Turnaround Success Stories 21:01 Career Moves and New Opportunities 22:14 Returning to Intermountain Health 24:37 Building a Hospital in Park City 33:05 Balancing Family and Career 35:27 Lightning Round Learn more about your ad choices.

We're deep into December, and the window for smart year-end tax planning is closing quickly. Taxes may not be at the top of your Christmas wish list, but they are an important reminder of God's provision—and an opportunity to honor Him through wise stewardship.As Scripture reminds us, “The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it” (Psalm 24:1). That includes the resources He's entrusted to us. Thoughtful planning isn't about avoiding responsibility—it's about managing God's gifts with intention and gratitude.Today, we sat down with Kevin Cross, a seasoned CPA who has helped countless families navigate taxes with clarity and confidence. As we approach December 31 and look ahead to 2026, here are some of the most important moves to consider.Rethinking Charitable Giving at Year-EndCharitable giving is always close to the hearts of our listeners, and year-end is an especially strategic time to consider it.Recent changes to the tax code—including a higher standard deduction and an expanded SALT (state and local tax) deduction—mean many households may now benefit from itemizing again. If that's you, making charitable contributions before December 31 could provide meaningful tax benefits.But even if your standard deduction is still too high to itemize, there's another strategy worth considering: bundling your giving. Instead of spreading donations evenly each year, you might combine two years' worth of giving into one year. That can push you over the itemization threshold and maximize the tax benefit—while still supporting the ministries and causes you care about.Why a Donor-Advised Fund Is a Powerful ToolIf you don't yet know precisely where you want to give, a donor-advised fund (DAF) can be an incredibly flexible option. We often call it a charitable checking account. You receive the tax deduction when you contribute to the fund, then take your time prayerfully distributing gifts to qualified charities.Kevin likes to say it's “the most fun fund you'll ever have”—because it encourages generosity while allowing your resources to be invested and potentially grow before they're given.For those who want to ensure their giving supports gospel-centered ministries, I recommend opening a donor-advised fund through the National Christian Foundation (NCF). It's a wonderful way to align generosity with faith-based impact. You can learn more at FaithFi.com/NCF.A New Opportunity for Children and Grandchildren (Starting in 2026)One of the most talked-about developments Kevin highlighted is a new child tax savings account (Trump Account), set to begin in 2026. While no action can be taken until then, it's worth knowing what to expect.Under this provision, eligible children may receive a government-funded seed contribution, and families can contribute up to $5,000 per year. Even more interesting: businesses may be able to contribute up to $2,500 tax-free under the right circumstances—while still receiving a deduction.What makes this especially notable for generous families is that donor-advised funds may be used to contribute to these accounts, creating new ways to bless the next generation while maintaining a strong commitment to charitable giving. Proper planning and paperwork will be essential, but this is an opportunity many families will want to explore.Qualified Charitable Distributions: A Missed Opportunity for ManyOne of the most underutilized tax strategies Kevin sees involves Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs)—and it always surprises me how many people don't know about them.If you're 70½ or older, you can give directly from your IRA to a qualified charity and exclude that distribution from taxable income. Once you reach the age for required minimum distributions (RMDs), this becomes even more powerful. Instead of taking the distribution, paying taxes, and then giving what's left, you can give directly—often satisfying your RMD without increasing your tax bill.And this isn't limited to small amounts. You can give up to $100,000 per year through QCDs. It's one of the most effective charitable strategies available, especially for retirees who want to give generously while managing their tax burden wisely.Stewardship with PurposeTaxes can feel complex, frustrating, or even discouraging—but they don't have to be. When we view them through the lens of stewardship, they become another opportunity to align our financial decisions with God's purposes.Kevin Cross brings both expertise and encouragement to this conversation, reminding us that wise planning isn't about fear—it's about faithfulness. If you'd like to learn more about Kevin and his work, you can visit KevinCrossCPA.com.As we close out the year, our prayer is that your financial decisions reflect gratitude for what God has provided—and confidence that He will continue to lead you as you steward it well.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have about $135,000 in my 401(k), and my home is worth around $100,000. Would it be advisable to cash out my 401(k) to pay off my house?I was recently told about a fixed-rate annuity offering a 22% bonus immediately. Does that sound like a good opportunity, or is it too good to be true?My mother-in-law, who's still living, deeded my husband five and a half acres out of a 13-acre property. We're considering selling that portion to his sister and want to understand the tax implications—what tax rate applies, whether there's an inheritance tax, and how that works.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)National Christian Foundation (NCF)Kevin Cross, CPAWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season. Last week, admissions decisions rolled out for several top MBA programs including Yale SOM, CMU / Tepper, Chicago / Booth and Michigan / Ross. This upcoming week, MIT / Sloan, Harvard, Stanford, UPenn / Wharton, Northwestern / Kellogg, UVA / Darden, Georgetown / McDonough, Johns Hopkins / Carey, Berkeley / Haas, Dartmouth / Tuck, Duke / Fuqua, UCLA / Anderson, Notre Dame / Mendoza and Arizona / Carey are scheduled to release their Round 1 decisions.

Signups are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events The next livestream AMA is scheduled for Tuesday, December 16th; here's the link to Clear Admit's YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/cayoutubelive. Graham noted several admissions-related pieces of content recently published on Clear Admit. The first focuses on December admissions events being hosted by top MBA programs. The second looks at how best to manage the congested schedule of Round 2 MBA application deadlines that arrive in January. The third piece looks at some of the issues related to applying to b-school as a younger candidate. The final article dives into whether deferred MBA admissions is a good pathway for undergraduate students. Graham highlighted a Real Humans piece spotlighting students from Berkeley / Haas, and then we discussed the recently published Harvard Business School employment report for the Class of 2025. This led to a discussion on search funds. Finally, Graham profiled a soon-to-be published podcast that focuses on leadership, from a conversation with Texas / McCombs. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries: This week's first MBA admissions candidate has a 685 GMAT score. They applied to programs in the first round and subsequently have started a new experience in Africa. We discuss their options for this season versus next season. This week's second MBA applicant is a military candidate with a master's in computer science. They applied in Round 1 with an EA score of 160. They may decide to apply to Sloan in Round 2, depending on results. This week's final MBA candidate has a 333 GRE score and has had several startup experiences. They are targeting Harvard, Stanford and Wharton. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.

ChatGPT and Microsoft CoPilot are leading the enterprise AI adoption race, with 67% and 58% of businesses utilizing these tools, respectively, according to a study by the Wharton Human AI Research Program. This trend highlights a significant gap between these dominant players and competitors like Claude, Perplexity, and DeepSeek, which have much lower adoption rates. Despite the rapid integration of generative AI into corporate environments, a report from Salesforce indicates that 63% of business leaders consider their organizations data-driven, yet many express uncertainty about their data's reliability and the ability to generate actionable insights.Further complicating the landscape, a report from Ernst & Young reveals that while 75% of UK CEOs recognize the urgency of adopting generative AI, 68% admit to lacking a clear understanding of the technology. This disconnect poses risks for organizations as they navigate AI implementation, particularly in terms of data governance and the potential for costly mistakes in acquisitions and partnerships. The report emphasizes the need for IT providers to assist clients in validating vendors and ensuring responsible AI usage.In addition to enterprise AI developments, the episode discusses the shortcomings of current AI benchmarking practices, with only 16% of evaluated benchmarks employing rigorous scientific methods. This raises concerns about the reliability of claims made by AI vendors regarding their models' capabilities. The episode also highlights the cautious approach of small and medium-sized businesses towards AI in cybersecurity, with only 12% trusting AI to operate autonomously, primarily due to concerns over accuracy and data privacy.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT service leaders, the key takeaway is the importance of building trust in AI technologies. As the market sees an influx of new models, such as China's KimiK2, which claims to outperform established models at a fraction of the cost, the focus should be on validating these tools and ensuring they meet organizational needs. By prioritizing data governance and compliance, MSPs can position themselves as essential partners in helping clients navigate the complexities of AI adoption and implementation. Four things to know today 00:00 AI Goes Corporate: ChatGPT and Copilot Dominate Adoption as Leaders Struggle With Data Trust and Strategy04:53 Faulty AI Tests and Failing Trust: Oxford Study and Kaseya Report Expose the Gap Between Hype and Reality07:46 From Newsrooms to Courtrooms, AI Adoption Exposes a Trust Gap — and a New Opportunity for IT Providers11:11 AI Divide Widens: China's Free Kimi K2 Model Challenges GPT-5 While Google Locks Users Into a Data-Driven Ecosystem This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://try.auvik.com/dave-switchhttps://timezest.com/mspradio/

Hey everyone,This week, I'm sharing my experience moving from a small firm to a big one—and what that's meant for my career and growth over the last year nine months. This year had a lot of ups and downs (this episode was recorded in June and I am just getting it out…). I am happy for Nicolai's support through this and I look forward to many more episodes coming out. What would you like to see more of?Personal takeaways:* Flexibility: Turns out, the big company isn't as slow-moving as I thought. Milestones and structure actually bring freedom to explore, innovate, and make mistakes.* Expanded toolbox: The more people you connect with—across disciplines—the better you get at your job. Every new conversation and collaboration adds a new tool.* Resources: There's more access to technical codes, sample projects, and experts, but also space to build my own reusable tools, like spreadsheets for designs.* Soft skills: Volunteering and joining internal networks (like Enlace for Hispanic engineers) have grown my network and boosted my confidence. These bigger companies have endless training resources.* Endless career pivots: You can chart new paths, propose new ideas, and switch directions—all without leaving the company.Action items for you:* If you're thinking of switching firm sizes or career tracks, connect with someone who's done it. Be curious, not cautious.* Start a conversation with colleagues outside your “bubble.” There's wisdom everywhere.* Volunteer, join an internal group, or attend a conference—don't wait for permission, but do learn the process for asking.* Reflect on whether your workflows and resources are making you more effective—and start building (or sharing) something reusable.As always, keep an open mind. If your current job isn't sparking joy, experiment with new options before making a leap.

In this episode of The Tech Leader's Playbook, Avetis Antaplyan is joined by Christian Ulstrup, founder of Powerline, to explore how AI is transforming business practices. Christian, with over a decade of experience in applied AI, discusses the evolution of AI technologies and their real-world impact on industries ranging from startups to the U.S. federal government. He shares insights on moving from experimentation to impactful applications of AI, stressing the importance of cultivating a culture of continuous experimentation. Together, Avetis and Christian dive into how leaders can leverage AI for exponential growth, from AI quick wins to deep organizational transformations. The conversation touches on practical applications, such as automating back-office processes, improving customer interactions, and identifying hidden opportunities through AI-driven insights. Christian also discusses his firm's approach to using AI tools to generate value, drive profitability, and reduce costs while maintaining a human-centered focus. His unique perspective on the role of AI in shaping the future of work is both enlightening and inspiring, offering actionable advice for tech leaders eager to embrace the AI revolution.TakeawaysAI's role is not just about the technology itself but how and where it's applied in business processes.Business leaders must foster a culture of continuous experimentation to maximize the potential of AI.AI quick wins involve improving existing processes to work faster and more efficiently, sometimes 10 times faster.A "10x" approach, rather than incremental changes, can drive larger, more impactful transformations.Engaging with AI tools and experimenting with them helps uncover surprising efficiencies and new opportunities.Effective AI adoption starts with clear executive alignment and a formal mandate for experimentation across the organization.Some AI models like GPT and Claude are revolutionizing business processes that were previously time-consuming or costly.AI tools should be integrated into everyday workflows, from sales to HR, to gain real-time insights and efficiencies.Companies should prioritize AI experimentation, with an eye on both short-term wins and long-term cultural transformation.AI can help businesses of all sizes democratize access to powerful data insights, leveling the playing field for smaller companies.Chapters00:00 Introduction01:26 Christian Ulstrup's Background03:15 AI's Role in Business Transformation05:47 The AI Quick Win07:55 Thinking Big for AI Impact09:54 Three Phases of AI Adoption12:18 Tools for AI Adoption14:37 Identifying Power Users16:58 Formalizing AI Use Across the Organization19:15 Analyzing Data with AI Tools23:30 AI for Small Businesses27:48 AI and Profit Impact in PE-backed Firms31:46 Second-Order Effects of AI34:08 Risk Reduction and AI39:56 Opportunity Spotting with AI44:23 Change Management and AI49:42 Biggest Aha Moment in Christian's AI Journey54:03 The Future of Work with AIChristian Ulstrup's Social Media Links:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christianulstrup/Resources and Links:https://www.hireclout.comhttps://www.podcast.hireclout.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright

Do you ever feel guilty taking time to do something you enjoy?  Or have you ever said things like “I don't have time for that” (and by that, you mean basic human needs, like you don't have time to eat, to sleep, to pee?!?)

I'm going to be real with you—sometimes the biggest business breakthroughs don't happen on stage, in a meeting, or during a strategy session. They happen when your feelings get hurt, your plans go sideways, and you say “yes” anyway.In this episode, I'm sharing the behind-the-scenes story of how a last-minute trip to Nashville turned into one of the most impactful mastermind experiences of my year—all because I chose to show up, even when I felt excluded.Here's the tea: I wasn't invited to a mastermind dinner I thought I'd be part of. And, like any human with a beating heart, I had a lot of feelings. I let myself sit in them. I reached out to my girl Amy Porterfield. And instead of letting the exclusion define me, I made a new story—and booked a plane ticket.Spoiler: That trip led to a powerful mini mastermind with some of the most brilliant female entrepreneurs I know (Jenna Kutcher, Bonnie Christine, and more), and I walked away 1% better—and with 5 key takeaways you can apply to your business today.Here's what you'll learn:Why rest is just as productive as hustleHow to reframe moments of rejectionWhat “choosing a better story” looks like in actionThe power of informal opportunitiesHow to squeeze value out of every experience (even the ones that don't go as planned)Whether you're navigating disappointment or wondering if it's worth hopping on a plane last-minute, I hope this episode encourages you to trust the process and say yes to what could be next.Because the truth is, the right rooms won't just open for you—they'll find you when you're ready.Click play to hear all of this and:[00:54] Why Rejection Hurt: Unpacking a Business Exclusion[02:44] Choose a Better Story: How I Reframed the Narrative[03:42] How Vulnerability Sparked a New Opportunity[04:32] The 1% Rule: Why Small Gains Lead to Big Growth[05:28] 32 Hours in Nashville: High-Energy Learning & Connections[08:04] Informal Masterminds Matter: What This Trip Taught Me[10:22] Why Being Present (Even When Disappointed) Still Pays OffListen to Related Episodes:Three Ways to Remove Comparison and Become UnstoppableBuilding Confidence with Ease: How I'm Becoming the 3X Version of Myself
