Have you ever caught yourself asking, "What's the use?"What's the use of saving money if it's not enough? What's the use of working out if you don't see results? What's the use of reading, practicing, or making one more attempt when it feels like nothing is changing?In this episode, I challenge one of the biggest lies we tell ourselves: that effort is only worthwhile if it produces immediate results.I share a different way to think about progress. You're not in the results business—you're in the elimination business. Every time you make the effort, you eliminate a temptation to quit, procrastinate, or cope. You eliminate the assumptions that tell you you already know how the story ends.The outcome will come in its own time. Your job is to keep removing the things that stand in its way.If you've ever felt stuck, discouraged, or wondered if your efforts even matter, this episode will help you reframe the conversation you're having with yourself—and give you a reason to keep going.Keep it simple. Keep it moving. Never settle. Stay tough.TEXT ME!Support the show
Ep. 1015. Sales has gotten faster, but people still buy the same way—they need confidence. In this episode, I share an old-school sales technique that's become underutilized today: the Feel, Felt, Found method. I'll show you how these three simple words keep you from taking objections personally, help you uncover what's really causing customer hesitation, and allow you to guide people instead of reacting emotionally.It's timeless technique that builds trust, reduces unnecessary concessions, and helps you close more deals.Let's get it!TEXT ME!Support the show
This conversation begins with cats but quickly becomes something much bigger. Deborah Felin Magaldi never intended to build a rescue organization. One stray cat led to another, and today she leads CatPAWS, helping thousands of vulnerable animals while inspiring ordinary people to discover that small acts of compassion can transform entire communities. In this episode • How one neighbour's cats became a sixteen-year mission • Why fostering may be easier—and more rewarding—than you think • The critical role of spay and neuter programs in reducing animal suffering • The surprising connection between animal welfare, empathy, and stronger communities • How older women can continue making a meaningful difference, whether through volunteering, donating, fostering, or simply caring • Why "someone should do something" might actually mean "someone is you" Whether your passion is animals, people, or your local community, this conversation is a reminder that meaningful change often begins with one person deciding to care.

Joel Brewer, founder and CEO of Brewer Digital, joins Jeff Mains on Future Proof Founder to cut through the AI hype and get practical about what it actually means to build software in 2025. Joel brings a developer's perspective to a conversation that's usually dominated by non-technical voices — and the result is a grounded, honest look at how early-stage SaaS founders can work with engineering teams, avoid costly mistakes, and use AI as a tool rather than a crutch.From rescuing failed offshore builds to helping non-technical founders navigate Claude Code, Joel shares what he's learned from 13 years in the startup trenches. The conversation covers sandbox environments, the evolving definition of a senior engineer, the difference between bootstrapped and VC-backed engineering cultures, and why clear goals — not shiny tools — are still the most valuable thing in any founder's arsenal.Key Takeaways3:46 — Joel shares how getting fired launched his 13-year journey building Brewer Digital from freelance Rails work to a full software development agency for early-stage founders.6:59 — Goals before tools. Joel's antidote to AI-driven chaos: go back to basics. Know where you're headed before you pick up a tool. AI accelerates whatever you point it at — including anxiety.11:36 — The sandbox lesson. Real-world story: a client went rogue with Claude Code and made changes directly to a production database, thinking they were just experimenting. Sandboxes exist for a reason.14:15 — The new definition of a senior engineer. From Google I/O: senior engineers used to be defined by what they could build that others couldn't. Now, they're defined by what they understand that others don't — especially critical as AI writes more code.15:17 — The construction metaphor. AI doesn't eliminate the need for engineers — it expands what's possible to build. We went from huts to skyscrapers with better tools. The same shift is happening in software.19:36 — Communication breaks before code does. When Joel steps into a failed project, the first red flag he looks for isn't the codebase — it's whether communication between founders and engineers has broken down.21:08 — Optimize for the right thing. Feedback loops are powerful — but only if you've already defined what you're optimizing for. Shipping features faster means nothing if the features aren't moving the needle.24:21 — The Southwest Airlines principle. Joel shares a CEO quote about the real goal of flying a plane — not the technical operation, but getting someone home for Christmas. The same applies to product teams: the feature is never the goal.25:52 — Bootstrapped vs. VC-backed engineering cultures. Bootstrappers tend toward capital efficiency and caution. VC-backed companies optimize for velocity and growth at scale. Different goals, different cultures — both valid depending on the mission.30:21 — What gets lost when AI replaces people. When you replace humans with agents, you lose humanity and irreplaceable individual creativity. Joel argues that sitting with a notebook for 15 minutes can still outperform an hour with AI for generating genuinely inspired thinking.33:36 — Advice for non-technical founders hiring developers. Know your goals for the product before the first engineering conversation. Engineers love solving problems — if you don't guide them with clear goals, they'll solve the wrong one brilliantly.35:03 — The future of founder-engineering relationships. AI removes code-writing as the bottleneck. The new bottleneck is communication — rapid testing, alignment, and iteration between product, founder, and engineering.38:24 — Complexity kills growth. AI tools are excellent at adding complexity. Founders who learn to fight that tendency — preferring simplicity and brevity — will have a structural advantage.Tweetable Quotes"AI becomes a tool when you know where you're headed. If you don't know your destination, AI just helps you get lost faster." — Joel Brewer"A senior engineer used to be someone who could build what others couldn't. Now, they're someone who understands what others don't." — Joel Brewer"The sandbox isn't optional. You can ask Claude to change your production database, and it will. Enthusiastically." — Joel Brewer"Complexity kills growth. AI is really good at adding complexity. That's a problem worth solving on purpose." — Joel Brewer"I sat down with a notebook for 15 minutes and had more genuinely inspired ideas than an hour with AI. People can still think. That's not nothing." — Joel Brewer"If your imagination is unlimited, AI doesn't replace you — it just lets you build the skyscraper instead of the hut." — Joel Brewer"We're not very good at predicting the future. And when there's a lot of money involved in selling a specific version of it, that's worth keeping in mind." — Joel BrewerSaaS Leadership Lessons1. Start with goals, not tools. The most expensive AI mistakes happen when founders adopt a tool and then search for a use case. Reverse the order: define what you're trying to accomplish, then evaluate whether AI actually serves that goal. Tool-first thinking creates fast, sophisticated chaos.2. Build a sandbox culture — literally and figuratively. Non-technical founders experimenting with AI-assisted development tools need guardrails. In software, that means sandboxed environments separated from production. In leadership, it means creating space for experimentation that doesn't put the business at risk. Permission to explore is only valuable when the blast radius is contained.3. The new competitive edge is understanding, not output. As AI commoditizes the ability to generate code, copy, and content, the strategic advantage shifts to comprehension — people who understand why something works, what the architecture actually does, and when not to build something at all. Leaders who can explain the machine are worth more than leaders who can only operate it.4. Communication is the bottleneck AI just uncovered. Before AI, writing code was slow enough that communication gaps could hide. Now that code can be written in hours, the limiting factor is alignment — between founders and engineers, product and market, vision and execution. Founders who invest in communication infrastructure will outpace those who just invest in faster tools.5. Tie every feature to a business outcome — before the first line of code. Engineers are problem-solvers. They will build what you put in front of them. If the problem you hand them isn't connected to a business goal, they'll build the wrong thing exceptionally well. Make the goal explicit, measurable, and understood by the whole team before any work begins.6. The human element isn't a liability — protect it. When every company is using similar AI stacks, the differentiator becomes the people. Human creativity — particularly the kind that emerges from unstructured thinking time — is increasingly rare and undervalued. The best leaders will use AI to create more space for deep thinking, not less.Guest Resourcesjoel@brewerdigital.com www.brewerdigital.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/joel-brewer-69680037/ Episode SponsorThe Futureproof Series - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfkXKUPZ5xuOqMPR7_gzGybncTtavyR1NThe Captain's KeysSmall Fish, Big Pond – https://smallfishbigpond.com/ Use the promo code ‘SaaSFuel'Champion Leadership Group – https://championleadership.com/https://jeffmains.com/books/SaaS Fuel ResourcesWebsite - https://championleadership.com/Jeff Mains on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffkmains/Twitter - https://twitter.com/jeffkmainsFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/thesaasguy/Instagram - https://instagram.com/jeffkmains
Ep. 1014. Are you negotiating with your customer... or negotiating with yourself?In this episode I'm talking about Wallet Share—one of the biggest psychological mistakes we salespeople make.Too often, we assume a customer won't buy because we wouldn't. We project our own financial comfort level onto the customer, mistake silence for rejection, and start offering discounts or concessions before the customer has even objected.That's not negotiating with the customer. That's negotiating with yourself.In this episode, you'll learn: What Wallet Share is Why salespeople talk themselves out of deals How to stop negotiating from your own budget Why silence isn't always rejection How to present numbers with confidence and let the customer decide Whether you're selling cars, real estate, insurance, technology, or any high-ticket product, this sales principle will help you negotiate with more confidence and close more deals.Remember: "It's your obligation to give your customer options. It's their right to say yes or no."Don't negotiate from your wallet. Negotiate from their goals.TEXT ME!Support the show

In episode 1012, I dive into one of the most powerful passages from Napoleon Hill's The Law of Success and explore why breaking bad habits feels so difficult—and why it's so easy to fall back into old ones.Most people think they're negotiating with a decision. I believe they're actually negotiating with their former self.We'll talk about why old habits never completely disappear, how your environment and senses shape your subconscious, and why Hill's idea of following a "desired line" may be the missing piece to lasting change.You'll learn:Why old habits come back so quickly.The hiking trail analogy that explains how habits are formed.Why your former self is patient—and always waiting.How to stop negotiating with yourself.The simple question I use to make better decisions: Does this strengthen a problem or strengthen a skill?If you've ever felt frustrated because you made progress only to slip back into old patterns, this episode will give you a different way to think about habits, discipline, and lasting change.Remember: establish the line, stay on the line, and let repetition do the work.Keep it simple.

Are you the only one trying to save your relationship? It's one of the most painful realizations you can have: feeling like you care more about the relationship than your partner does. You're doing all the emotional labor, trying every technique, and waiting for them to finally "get it"—but nothing changes. In this session, we're diving into the exhausting reality of One-Sided Relationships. We'll explore why we stay even when it feels hopeless, and look at the two powerful forces keeping you stuck: Intermittent Reinforcement: Why those "small moments of good" act like a drug, keeping you hooked on the possibility of change. The Guilt Trap: How our own loyalty and sense of responsibility are often used against us. The Big Question: Can one person save a relationship? The answer isn't a simple yes or no, but there is a way to find out for sure. The hardest part of being in this position is the "not knowing." Is your partner truly indifferent, or are they just so buried in denial and defensiveness that they've shut down? Denial Breakthrough Intensive:

Every marriage begins with the same illusion. Two people stand before God, family, friends, and the state believing they are making the same promises, entering the same covenant, accepting the same responsibilities, and assuming the same risks. But what if they aren't? What if one of the country's most respected divorce attorneys has identified something almost nobody investigates? He argues that marriage may be the only contract where both people make promises, yet only certain promises remain legally enforceable after the relationship dies. In the traditional heterosexual marriage, those enforceable obligations have historically fallen most often upon the husband because he has more frequently occupied the provider role. The law cannot order love. It cannot compel desire. It cannot restore admiration. It cannot manufacture respect. It cannot sentence affection. But it can enforce financial obligations with the authority of the state. If that observation contains even a fragment of truth, then every uncomfortable question suddenly becomes unavoidable. Did two people actually enter the same contract? Or did they unknowingly enter two different agreements hidden beneath one wedding ceremony? If modern family law is written in gender-neutral language, why do so many men experience its consequences as gender-specific? Is the law producing unequal outcomes, or is the culture still producing unequal roles that the law merely inherits? Who authored these rules of engagement? Religion? Common law? Economics? Chivalry? Or an unexamined cultural assumption that men exist to remain responsible while women exist to remain protected? Then another possibility enters the courtroom. Suppose the legal system is not exposing the first fracture in the marriage. Suppose it is exposing the last. Krishnamurti questioned whether husbands and wives ever truly encounter one another, or merely the images they construct. Thomas Campbell suggests that images require continual maintenance because fear, ego, and unhealed wounds generate psychological entropy. If two people unknowingly married images instead of one another, perhaps the courtroom is not where the marriage failed. Perhaps it is where the hidden architecture of the marriage finally becomes visible. Tonight's investigation is neither pro-marriage nor anti-marriage. It is far more dangerous than that. If marriage sells mutual vows but enforces only certain measurable obligations, and if those obligations still tend to attach to the male provider role in heterosexual relationships, are men entering a romantic covenant…or a gendered liability structure dressed in sacred language?
This week, I'm taking you with me to Pixar and into the very real mom guilt spiral that hit when one of my girls got invited into a special experience and the others didn't. What started as a magical Disney/Pixar day turned into a bigger parenting reframe about fairness, sibling comparison, and why equal does not always mean the same.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking..."I have no idea what I want to do with my life."If so, you're not alone.For most of my life, I didn't know my purpose either. It wasn't until my 50s that I finally realized my purpose wasn't something I had to *find*—it was something that had been revealing itself through every job, every setback, every frustration, and every lesson along the way.In this episode, I share the mindset shift that changed everything.You'll learn: Why it's okay not to know your purpose yet.The fastest place to start when you feel stuck.Why your "dead-end" jobs aren't wasted.How frustration and pain often point you toward your greatest contribution.Why the skills you're building today may become the foundation of the life you're meant to live.You don't need all the answers today.You just need a direction.If you know what you "don't want, " that's enough to take the first step.---If this episode helped you, subscribe and share it with someone who's trying to figure out their next step.Keep it simple.

I hear from so many nonprofit leaders that they struggle to figure out how to go after a particular policy goal, even when they're really clear about what they want. The problem is the path from here to there is not at all clear. There's one piece of advice I give to every client who's feeling frustrated by this problem. There's really one person you need to have that is going to make your life so much easier. And you want to start by finding that one person. That's the person who knows how stuff works. You need someone who understands inside and out the process for changing the specific type of policy you want to change. And that's the thing. It's not like there's just one way or one method or one process or one strategy. It depends immensely on the policy arena you're operating in. It depends on who the decisionmakers are that are involved, and what their openness to change and different ideas looks like. It depends on lots and lots of things. But what never changes is that for any given policy change that you want to try to make, you're always going to be operating in some sort of an existing policy landscape, and some sort of an existing decision-making structure. With people in charge of stuff and people who have vested interests in stuff and all of that. And if you don't know that landscape, you're in a real bind. The one person you need in all of this is a guide. You need the person who knows that landscape like the back of their hand, and that can take you through it to help you find the best pth to the policy results you want. In this episode, we reveal: Where to find a great guide – even one who doesn't expect you to pay themWhat a paid guide can do for you, and what they can'tHow to use AI effectively as part of your strategy developmentWhy your greatest champion may not be the best choice for a guideThe three most important pieces of information you need to give your guide up front, to ensure the best resultsThe five most powerful questions you should ask your guide Help spread the word! If you found value in this episode, I'd be grateful if you would leave a review on iTunes or wherever you listen. Your reviews help other nonprofit leaders find the podcast. Thanks!!
From writing his first lines of code at twelve to founding Intuji at fifteen and building a global digital transformation firm that works with manufacturers, wholesalers, and industrial businesses across continents. We're diving deep into why the most dangerous gap in business today isn't a talent gap or a capital gap, but a thinking gap. A failure to separate activity from outcomes. This is a conversation with Julian Wallis about what it actually takes to build a business that compounds where your data, your systems, and your digital ecosystem become assets no competitor can replicate. -What "QTIP" means, and why every founder needs to tattoo it on their brain before their next team meeting. -How the difference between a job and a task is the only thing standing between you and irrelevance in the next five years. -What "PSV thinking" is and why every tech investment decision should start and end with it. -How the companies that will dominate the next decade aren't the ones adopting AI fastest, they're the ones who own their data first. -Why high performers aren't in danger from AI, low performers are already gone. -What it actually means to build an "edge factor" and why most businesses are building features instead. And this episode is a masterclass in building things that last not just systems, but businesses that compound, compete, and win on their own terms. If you're building in Nepal, this is the conversation you didn't know you needed. 8 TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Highlights 05:23 - What's QTIP? 08:50 - How Do You Find the Right People? 10:58 - Meaning Behind the Name "Intuji" 18:58 - What Do You Think About AI? 26:58 - Difference Between a Job and a Task 39:23 - Importance of Structured Data 41:03 - "Data Is the New Currency" Finally Makes Sense 44:24 - The Future of Software: UI & Large Language Models (SaaS) 46:00 - Can a $100,000/Month Budget Build a Business with Almost No Human Involvement? 48:30 - Why Product Companies Own Their Data but Service Companies Don't 50:10 - How Giant Companies Keep Finding New Revenue Streams 55:57 - How Should Nepal Be Branded as a Tech Nation? 59:10 - Why the Government Has Made Doing Business in Nepal Difficult 1:00:34 - What Bothers Julian Most About Doing Business in Nepal? 1:04:54 - How to Choose One Tech Domain and Become an Expert 1:06:51 - What Was Julian Like During His School & Childhood Days? 1:10:33 - The Moment That Sparked Julian's Passion for Digital Transformation 1:11:40 - What Bothers Julian in General? 1:13:43 - "If I'm Doing Nothing, I Get Itchy." 1:15:26 - We Overestimate One Year and Underestimate Ten Years 1:16:28 - Why It's Easier to Give Up When Things Get Tough 1:18:06 - Julian's Love for Nepal #TheDoers #TheDoersNepal #JulianWallis #Intuji #DigitalTransformation ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ Want to become a video podcaster?

Some relationships don't stay together because they're healthy. They stay together because one person is constantly managing tension, solving problems, and carrying responsibilities that were never meant to belong to them alone. In this episode, I explore what happens when that person reaches their limit, why the relationship often appears to get worse, and how stability and health are not always the same thing.This episode is supported by Enhanced-Mind Counseling.

Most people think they're thinking.They're not.They're reacting.Reacting to work.Reacting to bills.Reacting to stress.Reacting to whatever problem showed up this morning.And when you're constantly reacting, it's easy to wake up two years later feeling like you're still dealing with the same problems, just wearing different clothes.In this episode, I'm going to share a simple system that helped me break out of that cycle when I hit rock bottom in 2017. After bankruptcy, a demotion, and rebuilding my life from the ground up, I realized I couldn't keep trusting the same thoughts that got me there.And it's by doing "very little."The system is simple:Read a little.Reflect a little.Apply a little.That's it.No complicated routines. No productivity hacks. Just a practical way to feed your mind better ideas, think more intentionally, and start making progress one day at a time.Because the goal isn't just to solve today's problems.The goal is to stop living in reaction mode and start directing your life with purpose.Keep it simple, keep it moving, never settle, stay tough.TEXT ME!Support the show

In this episode, marriage coach Dr. Lee Baucom explains why the real problem usually isn't communication — and what one person can quietly do to shift the entire dynamic, even when their partner has already checked out. If you're not sure where to start, the Yes, No, Maybe Checklist at mylibidodoc.com/freebies is a simple, low-pressure way to open a door that's been closed for a while.

Interview with Annabel Hay Annabel Hay is the Founder and CEO of CLUTCH Glue. After a flimsy piece of fashion tape caused her most embarrassing wardrobe malfunction at a nightclub back in 2017, Annabel dedicated the next four years of her life inventing and globally patenting the world's first glue alternative. to fashion tape. After finding virality almost instantly, CLUTCH quickly became an international phenomenon, revolutionising the way we wear and enjoy our clothes. From being coined the best Shark Tank pitch of all time, to closing the world's largest pre-seed capital raise for an FMCG company, and making the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in 2025, her philosophy for building CLUTCH has been shaped by transferable skills from her career as a construction manager, helping position her as one of the most practical founders in the space.

Send us Fan MailWhy do we make things so much harder on ourselves?That's the question we're tackling in Episode #1008 of What's Your Problem?Most people have been taught that knowledge is power. I disagree.Organized knowledge is power.There's a big difference between consuming information and actually understanding it.In this episode, I share one of the biggest lessons I've learned from Napoleon Hill's Law of Success: there are two ways to gain knowledge. The first is through other people's knowledge—the lessons, mistakes, experiences, books, podcasts, interviews, and wisdom left behind by those who went before us. The second is through personal experience.The problem is that most of us ignore the instructions and choose to learn everything the hard way.We admire successful people. We like the highlights. We long for the finished product. But too often, we skip the process that got them there. Why reinvent what others have already sacrificed to leave behind? This episode is about becoming a student of your craft. It's about organizing what you learn, developing a deeper understanding, and leveraging the experiences of others to shorten your learning curve without eliminating the work required.You still have to do the work.You still have to gain your own experience.But you don't have to start from scratch.If you've ever felt like you're working harder than necessary, spinning your wheels, or trying to figure everything out on your own, this episode is for you.Listen in and ask yourself:Why am I making this so hard on myself?Subscribe for daily content, clips, shorts, posts, and working thoughts:YouTube: Marsh BuiceInstagram: @marshbuiceFacebook: Marsh BuiceTikTok: @themarshbuiceLinkedIn: Marsh BuiceX: @marshbuiceNew episodes of What's Your Problem? every week.Keep it simple.

We must not think of Christ's incarnation as a mixture: partially of God and partially of man. Nor should we imagine that He is two persons.
