From the parking lot of a Planet Fitness to the core of how revenue actually gets made, AJ makes the case that “alignment” is no longer a soft, HR-friendly concept — it is the true operating system of performance in 2026.In this candid, off-the-cuff episode, he unpacks why culture isn't your onboarding deck, your values poster, or your careers page — it's how decisions get made under pressure, how managers lead through uncertainty, and how safe people feel telling the truth before the numbers break.AJ argues that the real risk in most organizations isn't the C-suite — it's a confused middle 60% that quietly drags execution, slows pipeline, and erodes trust. He connects this to his own lived experience as an entrepreneur who has had to “make payroll before there was payroll,” and why that reality gives him a visceral lens on culture, accountability, and human behavior.This is not a theory episode. It's a reminder that your daily micro-behaviors, decision models, and alignment (or lack thereof) are either compounding toward growth — or silently burning your business down.

In this conversation, Nikki Barua (LinkedIn), CEO of FlipWork, discusses the critical need for companies to fundamentally reinvent themselves rather than merely transform. She emphasizes the difference between evolutionary and revolutionary change, highlighting the importance of leadership, cultural shifts, and the iterative process of change. Nikki shares insights on how organizations can identify focus areas for change, engage teams in the process, and navigate the complexities of implementing new strategies in a rapidly evolving business landscape. In this conversation, Nikki Barua and Krish Palaniappan explore the complexities of high-stakes decision-making, the future of software development, and the impact of AI on careers. They discuss personal reflections on identity and belonging, particularly in the context of immigration and cultural assimilation. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of adapting to new environments while maintaining one's cultural roots, and the role of language in fostering connections. Ultimately, they highlight the shared human experience of seeking belonging and the potential for innovation in a rapidly changing world.

What if the real leadership advantage isn't another tactic—but the way you lead yourself when nobody's watching? In this episode, Peter talks with executive coach and facilitator Nina Urman about her core framework found in her book: "Lead From Within." She reframes "mindset" as heartset—getting crystal-clear on what you're saying yes to, what you're saying no to, and why that decision discipline matters at the top. Nina's thought leadership lives where performance meets inner leadership. We unpack failing forward as a repeatable leadership behavior, not a motivational poster—using setbacks as data, then moving again with more precision. We also explore how leaders can "create from the future" by defining the future-self outcome and reverse-engineering the moves that make it real. Her work is deeply practical and designed for high-performing rooms. Nina coaches and facilitates for CEOs, executives, leadership teams, entrepreneurs, and family businesses, with a focus on time and energy management and emotional mastery—because execution breaks when energy and emotion are unmanaged. We also get into how she built demand through trusted communities like YPO (Young Presidents' Organization) and similar peer networks—and why "belonging" and safety are not soft concepts, but performance multipliers. Nina describes her work as creating safe spaces where high-achievers can be fully themselves, which is where the real breakthroughs happen. Finally, Nina shares a challenge every successful thought leader hits: when your calendar proves the concept, but caps the company. She's been running nearly 50 retreats a year and is now making intentional tradeoffs—saying no to 1:1 and even some retreats—so she can scale what works, especially around family leadership. She's even developed a "Family Circle in a Box" board-game-style tool to help families moderate the experience themselves, and she's exploring how digital tools (including AI) can help her scale impact without losing the essence of the work. Three Key Takeaways: • Lead from "heartset," not just mindset. Clarity comes from aligning decisions to what you truly value—what you're saying yes to, what you're saying no to, and why. • Make failure a system, not an event. "Failing forward" is a repeatable discipline: treat setbacks as data, adjust fast, and move again with more precision. • Scale impact without losing the work. Trust-based communities and psychologically safe spaces drive breakthroughs, and scalable formats (tools, repeatable experiences, digital/AI) help move beyond a calendar-capped model. If Nina's "Lead From Within" idea of heartset and self-leadership resonated, queue up Episode 125 with Claude Silver next. Nina focuses on inner clarity and emotional mastery as a leadership advantage. Claude complements that by translating the inner game into culture—human-centered leadership, values, and how your emotional posture shapes the workplace. Together, they move from who you are as a leader to how your leadership lands on others. Go listen to Claude's episode to connect personal alignment to scalable, people-first performance.

I implemented EOS (short for “the Entrepreneurial Operating System”) in my own company beginning in 2015, and we continued to operate under its various principles and structures until successfully selling the company in late 2020. Based on that first-hand experience, I thought it would be worthwhile to dig into a number of recurring FAQs that I often receive from other CEOs who are considering implementing an operating system within their own companies. To help me work through these FAQs, I was joined by Alex Hodgkin. In addition to being an entrepreneur and CEO himself, Alex also co-founded the Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition program at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business. Currently, Alex runs his own business specifically to help small business CEOs implement the Entrepreneurial Operating System.

The new year has arrived, and with it, the predictable surge of "system noise." While the rest of the world is busy scrubbing the movie screen with Windex—trying to fix external results through sheer force and 3:00 AM ice baths—we are going into the projection booth. In this episode, we diagnose why most high-performers are trying to run enterprise-level software on fried hardware. The "Spirit of the Deal" isn't about finding your inner peace; it's about system maintenance. We are bridging the gap between the boardroom and biology. If your nervous system is screaming "unsafe" during a negotiation, your prospect will feel the friction, no matter how polished your script is. Your biology is the bottleneck, not your strategy. In this episode, we discuss: The Projection Metaphor: Why working harder is just scrubbing a screen when the scratch is actually on the internal film. Hardware vs. Software: Why somatic intelligence is the processor speed required to run the "Quantum Leap" strategy. The Middle Path: How to merge Vagus nerve regulation with EBITDA targets without losing your edge. Diagnostic Frameworks: Identifying if your current operating system is prone to overheating, ghosting, or people-pleasing under pressure.   Stop white-knuckling the steering wheel. Your nervous system is running an outdated operating system, and it's time for a mandatory upgrade. Learn how to regulate your internal state so the external deal closes by resonance, not force.

Your business is already running on an operating system—it's just not one you designed on purpose. In this final episode of The Q5 CEO Reset Series, Simone brings everything together to show how leadership identity, structure, and AI-powered systems combine to create a business that can finally run without you. This is the episode that turns insight into execution and reflection into design. A self-managing business doesn't come from working harder or hoping next year will be different—it comes from installing a CEO operating system that replaces chaos with clarity and reaction with intention. In this episode: Why your business is currently scaling your habits, not your vision. What a CEO Operating System actually is—and what it is not. The six non-negotiable pillars required to build a self-managing business in 2026. How unclear roles, weak rhythms, and avoided accountability keep you stuck as the bottleneck. Why identity—not effort—is the real limiter to scale. How to use Q5 to design your leadership, priorities, and operating rhythm before the year begins. The role AI plays as a supporting cast to eliminate friction and accelerate execution. What changes when you finally lead proactively instead of reactively. If this series helped you see that your business doesn't need more hustle—but a better operating system—the next step is the AI Business Scaling Blueprint. Inside, you'll learn how to install structure, clarity, accountability, and leadership systems using AI—now with weekly Q&A support and a private community to help you implement with confidence.  Get started at https://aibusinessscalingblueprint.com/

Something shifts when joy stops being a side effect of success and becomes a conscious way of living and leading. In this episode, Amy explores the idea of Exponential Joy with Kristin Joy Ekkens, founder of Exponential Joy™ movement, and how choosing joy on purpose can transform the way we work, communicate, and show up in our lives. Together, they unpack how joy is not about bypassing difficulty, but about developing the awareness, presence, and courage to meet life honestly without losing yourself in the process. Kristin shares how exponential joy grows through small, intentional choices that reconnect you to your voice, your body, and your truth, even in high-pressure environments. This conversation invites you to rethink productivity, success, and leadership through a more human lens, where joy becomes a renewable resource that deepens connection, expands impact, and creates work that feels aligned instead of draining.Key Takeaways:Why Exponential Joy Is a Practice, Not a Personality Trait – Understand how joy grows through intentional choices rather than circumstances or temperament.How Joy Changes the Way You Show Up at Work – Learn how choosing joy affects presence, communication, and how others experience you.The Difference Between Performing and Living in Joy – See how chasing approval or productivity blocks joy and creates quiet exhaustion.How Awareness Creates Space for Joy Under Pressure – Discover why noticing your internal state is the doorway to sustainable joy, even in demanding environments.Why Joy Expands Impact Instead of Diminishing It – Learn how grounded joy strengthens leadership, trust, and influence rather than making work feel less serious.Returning to Your Natural State of Joy – Understand how reconnecting to your voice, body, and truth allows joy to grow exponentially over time.About the Guest:Kristin Joy Ekkens is the visionary founder of the Exponential Joy™ movement and creator of the Joy Operating System (JOYOS™)—a blueprint for conscious leadership, wellbeing, and human flourishing.

In this opening episode of Strive for Truth, I'm joined by Rabbi Michael Cohen to introduce the work of Rabbi Eliyahu Dessler and to explain why this text requires a fundamentally different kind of learning. Rather than approaching it as philosophy or behavior modification, we frame Strive for Truth as a disciplined study of how a person thinks, chooses, and relates to reality itself. Rabbi Cohen shares his own background with this work, having studied it through Rabbi Aryeh Carmell—the direct student of Rav Dessler who rendered these teachings into English and authored Strive for Truth. Together, we explore the historical context of the book, why it opens with happiness and reward, and why real transformation requires patience, repetition, and honest self-examination. This episode lays the foundation for a long-term series meant not just to understand these ideas intellectually, but to allow them to reshape how we live.Join the Conversation! Be part of our growing community—join the Shema Podcast for the Perplexed WhatsApp group to share feedback, discuss episodes, and suggest future topics.

In this powerful episode of the Mindset Matters podcast, Patrick and Steffany kick off the new year with a deep conversation about why so many people feel stuck and why real change rarely comes from external circumstances. It is not the economy, politics, or lack of motivation holding most people back. It is the hidden programming in the brain that filters reality and blocks opportunity. Patrick explains how the Reticular Activating System, often called the RAS, works like an internal airport control tower, choosing what gets seen, noticed, or completely erased before it reaches conscious awareness. Together, Patrick and Steffany explore how this mental filter is driven by identity, hidden beliefs, and emotional safety. They unpack the importance of upgrading your personal “Operating System of Identity” so your RAS stops filtering life from fear and limitation, and starts recognizing opportunity, possibility, and growth. Listeners are guided into the deeper role of meta values, agency, and personal responsibility. Instead of letting emotions like fear or comfort dictate decisions, Patrick and Steffany show how anchoring to higher values such as truth, ownership, accountability, and integrity can expand perspective and reduce paralysis. They also stress the power of trusted counsel, clean feedback, and community support to challenge blind spots without attacking identity. Finally, they reinforce one of the most life changing truths. Clarity does not come first. Action does. When you move, your RAS updates, your confidence builds, and your brain realigns toward possibility and progress. This episode is a powerful invitation to step into the new year with courage, self awareness, upgraded identity, and intentional action. It is a must listen for anyone ready to stop feeling stuck and finally create meaningful forward momentum in life, relationships, business, and personal growth.

Welcome to 2026.

Welcome to Episode 3 of The Utility Trilogy. We have Reclaimed the Skill. We have Fortified the Chassis. Now, we must Secure the Mind."A strong body guided by a weak mind is just a brute... a dangerous animal."You can have the body of a Greek God and the engineering skills of a master mechanic, but if your Operating System is chaotic and unregulated, you are a liability to your tribe. In this episode, we break down the difference between "Intelligence" (loading the database) and "Wisdom" (the ability to regulate).IN THIS EPISODE:The Dangerous Animal: Why a Ferrari with a drunk driver is a weapon, not an asset.Burning Fuel in the Driveway: The metabolic cost of anxiety and imagining "ghost" problems.The Prediction Engine: Why your brain seeks comfort over truth, and why your "default settings" might be outdated.Seek The Glitch: Why being wrong ("The Glitch") is the only path to real growth.The Override Button: Using discipline to pause, verify the data, and respond rather than react.THE CHALLENGE:Audit your Operating System. The next time you feel the spike of anger or the urge to defend a belief, hit the Pause Button. Ask yourself: Is this true? Is this helpful? Or is this just my Prediction Engine trying to protect me?COMING NEXT (PART 3.5):We have built the framework (Skill, Body, Mind). Now, we have to run the machine in the real world. I will be releasing a follow-up deep dive on Application: How to handle conflict, how to process failure, and how to maintain your "Inner Citadel" when the Winter actually arrives. The work on the mind never ends—we have to keep updating the software.

BONUS: The Operating System for Software-Native Organizations - The Five Core Principles In this BONUS episode, the final installment of our Special Xmas 2025 reflection on Software-native businesses, we explore the five fundamental principles that form the operating system for software-native organizations. Building on the previous four episodes, this conversation provides the blueprint for building organizations that can adapt at the speed of modern business demands, where the average company lifespan on the S&P 500 has dropped from 33 years in the 1960s to a projected 12 years by 2027. The Challenge of Adaptation "What we're observing in Ukraine is adaptation happening at a speed that would have been unthinkable in traditional military contexts - new drone capabilities emerge, countermeasures appear within days, and those get countered within weeks." The opening draws a powerful parallel between the rapid adaptation we're witnessing in drone warfare and the existential threats facing modern businesses. While our businesses aren't facing literal warfare, they are confronting dramatic disruption. Clayton Christensen documented this in "The Innovator's Dilemma," but what he observed in the 1970s and 80s is happening exponentially faster now, with software as the accelerant. If we can improve businesses' chances of survival even by 10-15%, we're talking about thousands of companies that could thrive instead of fail, millions of jobs preserved, and enormous value created. The central question becomes: how do you build an organization that can adapt at this speed? Principle 1: Constant Experimentation with Tight Feedback Loops "Everything becomes an experiment. Not in the sense of being reckless or uncommitted, but in being clear about what we're testing and what we expect to learn. I call this: work like a scientist: learning is the goal." Software developers have practiced this for decades through Test-Driven Development, but now this TDD mindset is becoming the ruling metaphor for managing products and entire businesses. The practice involves framing every initiative with three clear elements: the goal (what are we trying to achieve?), the action (what specific thing will we do?), and the learning (what will we measure to know if it worked?). When a client says "we need to improve our retrospectives," software-native organizations don't just implement a new format. Instead, they connect it to business value - improving the NPS score for users of a specific feature by running focused retrospectives that explicitly target user pain points and tracking both the improvements implemented and the actual NPS impact. After two weeks, you know whether it worked. The experiment mindset means you're always learning, never stuck. This is TDD applied to organizational change, and it's powerful because every process change connects directly to customer outcomes. Principle 2: Clear Connection to Business Value "Software-native organizations don't measure success by tasks completed, story points delivered, or features shipped. Or even cycle time or throughput. They measure success by business outcomes achieved." While this seems obvious, most organizations still optimize for output, not outcomes. The practice uses Impact Mapping or similar outcome-focused frameworks where every initiative answers three questions: What business behavior are we trying to change? How will we measure that change? What's the minimum software needed to create that change? A financial services client wanted to "modernize their reporting system" - a 12-month initiative with dozens of features in project terms. Reframed through a business value lens, the goal became reducing time analysts spend preparing monthly reports from 80 hours to 20 hours, measured by tracking actual analyst time, starting with automating just the three most time-consuming report components. The first delivery reduced time to 50 hours - not perfect, but 30 hours saved, with clear learning about which parts of reporting actually mattered. The organization wasn't trying to fulfill requirements; they were laser focused on the business value that actually mattered. When you're connected to business value, you can adapt. When you're committed to a feature list, you're stuck. Principle 3: Software as Value Amplifier "Software isn't just 'something we do' or a support function. Software is an amplifier of your business model. If your business model generates $X of value per customer through manual processes, software should help you generate $10X or more." Before investing in software, ask whether this can amplify your business model by 10x or more - not 10% improvement, but 10x. That's the threshold where software's unique properties (zero marginal cost, infinite scale, instant distribution) actually matter, and where the cost/value curve starts to invert. Remember: software is still the slowest and most expensive way to check if a feature would deliver value, so you better have a 10x or more expectation of return. Stripe exemplifies this principle perfectly. Before Stripe, accepting payments online required a merchant account (weeks to set up), integration with payment gateways (months of development), and PCI compliance (expensive and complex). Stripe reduced that to adding seven lines of code - not 10% easier, but 100x easier. This enabled an entire generation of internet businesses that couldn't have existed otherwise: subscription services, marketplaces, on-demand platforms. That's software as amplifier. It didn't optimize the old model; it made new models possible. If your software initiatives are about 5-10% improvements, ask yourself: is software the right medium for this problem, or should you focus where software can create genuine amplification? Principle 4: Software as Strategic Advantage "Software-native organizations use software for strategic advantage and competitive differentiation, not just optimization, automation, or cost reduction. This means treating software development as part of your very strategy, not a way to implement a strategy that is separate from the software." This concept, discussed with Tom Gilb and Simon Holzapfel on the podcast as "continuous strategy," means that instead of creating a strategy every few years and deploying it like a project, strategy and execution are continuously intertwined when it comes to software delivery. The practice involves organizing around competitive capabilities that software uniquely enables by asking: How can software 10x the value we generate right now? What can we do with software that competitors can't easily replicate? Where does software create a defensible advantage? How does our software create compounding value over time? Amazon Web Services didn't start as a product strategy but emerged from Amazon building internal capabilities to run their e-commerce platform at scale. They realized they'd built infrastructure that was extremely hard to replicate and asked: "What if we offered it to others?" AWS became Amazon's most profitable business - not because they optimized their existing retail business, but because they turned an internal capability into a strategic platform. The software wasn't supporting the strategy - the software became the strategy. Compare this to companies that use software just for cost reduction or process optimization - they're playing defense. Software-native companies use software to play offense, creating capabilities that change the competitive landscape. Continuous strategy means your software capabilities and your business strategy evolve together, in real-time, not in annual planning cycles. Principle 5: Real-Time Observability and Adaptive Systems "Software-native organizations use telemetry and real-time analytics not just to understand their software, but to understand their entire business and adapt dynamically. Observability practices from DevOps are actually ways of managing software delivery itself. We're bootstrapping our own operating system for software businesses." This principle connects back to Principle 1 but takes it to the organizational level. The practice involves building systems that constantly sense what's happening and can adapt in real-time: deploy with feature flags so you can turn capabilities on/off instantly, use A/B testing not just for UI tweaks but for business model experiments, instrument everything so you know how users actually behave, and build feedback loops that let the system respond automatically. Social media companies and algorithmic trading firms already operate this way. Instagram doesn't deploy a new feed algorithm and wait six months to see if it works - they're constantly testing variations, measuring engagement in real-time, adapting the algorithm continuously. The system is sensing and responding every second. High-frequency trading firms make thousands of micro-adjustments per day based on market signals. Imagine applying this to all businesses: a retail company that adjusts pricing, inventory, and promotions in real-time based on demand signals; a healthcare system that dynamically reallocates resources based on patient flow patterns; a logistics company whose routing algorithms adapt to traffic, weather, and delivery success rates continuously. This is the future of software-native organizations - not just fast decision-making, but systems that sense and adapt at software speed, with humans setting goals and constraints but software executing continuous optimization. We're moving from "make a decision, deploy it, wait to see results" to "deploy multiple variants, measure continuously, let the system learn." This closes the loop back to Principle 1 - everything is an experiment, but now the experiments run automatically at scale with near real-time signal collection and decision making. It's Experiments All The Way Down "We established that software has become societal infrastructure. That software is different - it's not a construction project with a fixed endpoint; it's a living capability that evolves with the business." This five-episode series has built a complete picture: Episode 1 established that software is societal infrastructure and fundamentally different from traditional construction. Episode 2 diagnosed the problem - project management thinking treats software like building a bridge, creating cascade failures throughout organizations. Episode 3 showed that solutions already exist, with organizations like Spotify, Amazon, and Etsy practicing software-native development successfully. Episode 4 exposed the organizational immune system - the four barriers preventing transformation: the project mindset, funding models, business/IT separation, and risk management theater. Today's episode provides the blueprint - the five principles forming the operating system for software-native organizations. This isn't theory. This is how software-native organizations already operate. The question isn't whether this works - we know it does. The question is: how do you get started? The Next Step In Building A Software-Native Organization "This is how transformation starts - not with grand pronouncements or massive reorganizations, but with conversations and small experiments that compound over time. Software is too important to society to keep managing it wrong." Start this week by doing two things.  First, start a conversation: pick one of these five principles - whichever resonates most with your current challenges - and share it with your team or leadership. Don't present it as "here's what we should do" but as "here's an interesting idea - what would this mean for us?" That conversation will reveal where you are, what's blocking you, and what might be possible.  Second, run one small experiment: take something you're currently doing and frame it as an experiment with a clear goal, action, and learning measure. Make it small, make it fast - one week maximum, 24 hours if you can - then stop and learn. You now have the blueprint. You understand the barriers. You've seen the alternatives. The transformation is possible, and it starts with you.

In this episode, Paul Barnhurst looks into practical frameworks and leadership strategies for finance professionals with guest Brett Hampson. Brett discusses what he believes constitutes great FP&A and how grassroots finance transformations, rather than top-down technology implementations, can foster a proactive, value-creating FP&A culture. Brett Hampson has spent over a decade in corporate FP&A, working with some of the world's largest companies. He is the author of The FP&A Operating System, a book that outlines his approach to establishing a high-functioning FP&A department. Brett is also the founder of Forecasting Performance, a platform that promotes best practices in financial analysis and forecasting.Expect to LearnWhat grassroots finance transformation entails and why it's preferable to technology-centric approaches.How to implement Brett's FP&A Operating System and FP&A Flywheel framework to drive efficiency and value.The importance of setting a clear vision and objectives for FP&A teams to move from reactive to proactive operations.How to leverage attribution analysis and storytelling to enhance FP&A's influence on business decisions.Here are a few relevant quotes from the episode:“Grassroots finance transformation happens when each person on the team has their own vision and works towards solving specific challenges.” - Brett Hampson“Technology alone doesn't solve problems. It might fix one, but often creates new ones if cultural issues aren't addressed first.” - Brett HampsonWith insights into creating effective FP&A systems and teams, Brett Hampson provides a refreshing perspective on FP&A transformation.

In this episode of the Mindset Matters podcast, Patrick and Steffany take listeners deep into the foundation of personal growth by exploring hidden beliefs and the operating system of identity that shapes how we see ourselves. They unpack how early childhood experiences, attachment, and perceived safety influence adult self concept, resilience, and self esteem. Drawing on research and decades of coaching experience, they help listeners understand how deeply rooted beliefs about safety, love, worth, and effort silently drive behavior and limit potential. Patrick reflects on empirical studies showing that childhood environments strongly predict adult identity patterns, while Steffany offers practical insight into how automatic negative thoughts can become mental “ants” that sabotage performance and peace. Together, they explore the transformational power of self examination and self mastery, emphasizing that identity is not fixed but chosen. Through personal stories, coaching examples, and their signature blend of humor and honesty, they reveal how identity, relationships, values, trauma, and self belief interact to create a person's operating system. They encourage listeners to challenge inherited beliefs, choose new role models, and update old mental software that no longer serves them. The episode also highlights the importance of authenticity, consistency of values, and the courage to grow even when it disrupts old patterns. At its core, this conversation is a reminder that real happiness and meaningful change start from within. The journey of self mastery is ongoing, intentional, and available to anyone willing to examine their beliefs and consciously choose who they want to become.

Most business owners don't avoid structure because they don't need it—they avoid it because it forces honesty. In this episode, Simone pulls back the curtain on why burnout, underperformance, and constant firefighting are almost always symptoms of unclear expectations and avoided leadership. If your team can't step up and your business still depends on you for everything, this episode will show you exactly why—and what must change before 2026. A self-managing business isn't built through hustle or hope—it's built through clarity, standards, and performance leadership. This episode challenges the habits you've normalized and calls you into the CEO role your business actually needs. Key Takeaways Why entrepreneurs resist structure—and how avoidance keeps them stuck in burnout. The hidden connection between unclear expectations and doing everyone else's job. How lack of performance standards drives away A-players and protects mediocrity. Why avoiding feedback and accountability conversations erodes trust and culture. The real cost of waiting too long to address underperformance. Why "good enough" leadership creates bottlenecks instead of scale. The core components of a true CEO Operating System—and why they're non-negotiable for 2026. How AI supports structure and clarity without replacing leadership. If this episode made you realize your business is running on improvisation instead of intention, it's time to install a real operating system. The AI Business Scaling Blueprint shows you how to build clarity, accountability, and a self-managing team—now with weekly Q&A support and a private community to help you implement. https://aibusinessscalingblueprint.com/

Are you stuck in a cycle of "push, push, push" but feeling like you're hitting a ceiling in your growth? Often, the barriers to our progress aren't our external habits, but the deep-seated belief systems and thought habits that drive our every move. In this episode, JP Nerbun, Nate Sanderson, and Betsy Butterick pull back the curtain on the "Operating Systems" of successful leaders. They dive deep into the five most common limiting beliefs that keep coaches and leaders stuck—from the trap of tying self-worth to productivity to the paralyzing need for certainty before taking action.   Whether you are a veteran coach or an emerging leader, this conversation will challenge you to stop merely "doing" and start examining the mindsets that define your success.  

If you're craving a more intentional, streamlined and sustainable way to run your business next year, this episode is for you. Anna introduces a new way of thinking about how your business works behind the scenes - and what it takes to design your business operating system for 2026. Key Takeaways Your early business setup wasn't designed to support where you are now—your operating system must evolve. Someone else's blueprint can't account for your life, energy, responsibilities or goals. A solid business operating system has three parts: an intentional business model, authentic marketing and resonant sales, and simple systems. Reducing complexity and decision fatigue is essential for consistency and calm in 2026. Small strategic tweaks create more clarity and space than big dramatic overhauls.

New trending diet? Crashing down your calorie levels? What does the ideal diet even look like?In this episode, Justin is joined by Ben Brown, founder of Body Systems — a program designed to boost your energy and support a healthy weight by helping you discover your unique body system blueprint. Ben once had extreme fatigue and an immune crash. He knew something was wrong, but chalked it up to having a new baby, working very early mornings and long days, as well as pursuing a second Master's degree on the weekends. He began questioning conventional fitness and nutrition advice, started listening to his body, and was able to overcome common immune-suppressing habits. He's on a mission to help men and women become the CEO of their health by building a body, a mindset, and a personal operating system using a science-based methodology.Justin and Ben tackle how diets work and fail based on their real-life experiences, and as well as stories from how they coach their clients. They discuss what the best way is to navigate through figuring out the right health choices which includes proper lifestyle, diet, nutrition, and rest - and balancing all of them as we live our daily lives.Here are the highlights of this episode:01:56 Ben's Wounded Healer Story08:06 Navigating Through Health Choices15:53 Keeping People in Check28:19 Recovery and Restoring Adrenal Capacity31:33 The Baseline35:38 Go-To's for Muscle Building41:29 Supplementation50:25 Switching Your MindsetIf you wish to learn more from Ben Brown and Body Systems, you may do so through the following channels:Website: www.bodysystems.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching/YouTube: @bodysystemscoachingFacebook: @bodysystemsnutrition______________________________________________________Keep yourself up to date on The DNA Talks Podcast!

Karan Talati, cofounder and CEO at First Resonance, joins me to unpack what modern manufacturing really looks like inside factories that build rockets, drones, reactors, and other complex hardware. We dig into why only a small slice of factories run on real systems today, what a true factory operating system unlocks, and how that connects directly to national security and the AI boom.If you care about where all of this new compute, energy, and defense hardware will actually come from, this conversation gives you a clear view of the stack, the gaps, and the opportunity. Key takeaways• Only a small fraction of factories in the United States use a manufacturing execution system, which leaves a huge gap between legacy on prem tools, paper processes, and generic workflow apps that were never built for hardware work• Cloud infrastructure and open interfaces now make it possible to deploy a purpose built factory operating system at a cost and speed that works for both fast moving startups and long standing suppliers• Reindustrialization does not mean bringing every product back onshore, it means being deliberate about the layers of manufacturing that matter most for national security, chips, optics, and other high value components• The real foundation for modern manufacturing is talent, there is a major chance to re skill people into highly technical, well paid roles in aerospace, semiconductors, energy, and more• AI and agent style workflows will sit across design, manufacturing, and field operations so that hardware teams can close feedback loops, shorten timelines, and make better decisions with the data they already generateTimestamped highlights[00:40] Karan explains what First Resonance does and why he calls it a factory operating system for complex industries like aerospace, defense, energy, and autonomy[01:55] How we ended up with only about fifteen percent of factories running on an MES, and why most hardware work still lives on paper, spreadsheets, and ad hoc tools[06:49] A clear walkthrough of how offshoring looked like a rational path for decades, and why it created hidden risk across chips, optics, and other critical components[11:46] Which parts of manufacturing should come back onshore, why you do not want everything local, and how workforce strategy fits into the new industrial map[16:35] What a horizontal stack across design, factory systems, test, and field data can look like, and how AI agents can keep teams in sync across that stack[23:02] The real timelines of hardware in the age of AI, why software is speeding up physical development, and why examples like SpaceX and TSMC matter for the next decadeA line that stayed with me“Hardware and software are not separate worlds, they are one system that is now converging faster than most people realize.”Practical moves for tech leaders• Map your current manufacturing and hardware workflows, even if you are at a software first company, find the paper, spreadsheets, and disconnected tools that support anything physical you ship• Look for one or two places where a factory operating system or modern MES could remove handoffs, for example design changes that take weeks to reach the line or test data that never feeds back into engineering• Treat manufacturing careers as part of your talent strategy, help your teams see these roles as high skill and high impact, not as a side trackCall to actionIf this episode gave you a clearer view of how hardware, AI, and national security tie together, share it with one other person who should be thinking about the factory side of their roadmap.

Most people are trying to "goal" their way into a better year. They set resolutions, white-knuckle new habits, and wonder why everything falls apart by March. In this episode, Jim breaks that pattern wide open. 2026 won't rise to the level of your goals. It will fall to the level of your systems—and your systems are built on identity, energy, and emotional mastery. Jim walks you through how elite performers think (Kobe, Brady, Navy SEALs), how your brain literally fights anything that doesn't match your identity, and why stillness and silence—not more noise—are the unlocks for wealth, clarity, and calling. If you're serious about becoming the kind of person for whom wealth, health, and opportunity are inevitable—not accidental—this is your blueprint. What You'll Learn How to recode who you are in 2026. How (and why) to treat energy as currency  The confidence flywheel and why action must come before feeling "ready". A practical stillness protocol to hear from God, regulate your emotions, and make higher-quality business and money decisions. Action Steps Complete this sentence: "In 2026, I'm the kind of person who…" Let this identity drive your behavior. Identify one energizer and one drainer. Double the energizer. Delete the drainer. Phone on airplane mode. Sit upright. Breathe 4-2-6 for a few cycles. Do this every day for 30 days.  Jim Oliver's Shared Wisdom "Don't ask, 'What do I want in 2026?' Ask, 'Who must I become so that everything I want becomes inevitable?' Change your identity, protect your energy, sit in silence, and then take the courageous step. That's how you become unstoppable."

What if your building was smarter and optimized energy, security, and tenant experience in the background?In this episode of Alexa's Input (AI), Alexa talks with Aaron Short, founder and CEO of B-Line, an all-in-one facility management platform that uses AI to automate building operations. Aaron shares how his early work in urban planning and green building led him to build an “operating system for buildings” that connects siloed systems like access control, visitor management, emergency response, work orders, smart controls, and tenant support, without ripping and replacing legacy infrastructure.Alexa and Aaron dive into how AI agents power 24/7 customer service for property managers, reduce the need for on-site security through biometric access and digital IDs, and use occupancy and sensor data to drive real energy savings and predictive maintenance. They also explore why real estate has been historically slow to digitize, how to win in a legacy-heavy space, and where AI is having the biggest impact across proptech and climate tech.A must listen for anyone interested in the intersection of tech, real estate, urban planning, and building management!

Join Lionel for an urgent deep dive into the existential threats that mainstream media ignores. The world's configuration is being written in server farms and satellite links, not treaty rooms, as Sovereign AI emerges as a doctrine, not a product. Lionel warns that nations are dividing into those who control their own AI and those who merely rent someone else's. Then, on Warrior Wednesday, Lynn Shaw of Lynn's Warriors sounds the alarm on the frightening soft launch of AI toys this holiday season. Learn why stuffed animals, dolls, and plushies with embedded chatbots are acting as spies, undermining children's development, and directing kids to find knives or light matches. Families are strongly urged to avoid AI toys. Plus, uncover fascinating new research on how the human brain rewires itself across four distinct epochs (ages 9, 32, 66, 83) and explore the idea that we are born with an "operating system already installed".

Mastering Business Growth: Insights from Mark Abbott, Founder & CEO of Ninety, on Operating Systems, Culture, and Organizational MaturityIn this episode, host Josh Elledge sits down with Mark Abbott, Founder and CEO of Ninety, for a deep dive into business operating systems, organizational culture, and the journey of scaling small and mid-sized companies. Mark—drawing on decades of experience in entrepreneurship, software development, coaching, and workplace culture—explains how leaders can build high-performing, resilient organizations by implementing the right frameworks at the right time. This blog breaks down the episode's key insights and practical guidance to help business owners navigate their company's growth stages with clarity and confidence.Building Mature, Aligned, and High-Trust OrganizationsMark begins by explaining what a Business Operating System (BOS) truly is: a combination of tools, disciplines, and concepts that help organizations stay aligned, accountable, and scalable. He emphasizes that every company already has an operating system—whether intentional or accidental—and the goal is to consciously design one that matches the business's stage of development. Popular frameworks like EOS, Scaling Up, and The Great Game of Business offer structured paths, but each company must adopt the tools most appropriate for their maturity level.He breaks down the five stages of business development—Formation, Early Growth, Expansion, Maturity, and Legacy—and stresses that leaders must avoid skipping steps. For example, documenting every process too early is counterproductive; focusing instead on clarity, roles, and early team alignment yields better results. As businesses grow, they often mistake size for maturity, creating organizations that look impressive on the outside but lack foundational discipline internally.Mark also highlights the importance of culture, trust, and forgiveness. High-performance organizations assume goodwill, set clear expectations, and use trust as a guiding principle—while also acknowledging that not all behaviors should be tolerated. He references research from Dr. Paul Zak to explain how trust chemically fuels team performance and why leaders must foster environments where transparency and accountability thrive. Platforms like Ninety help reinforce these practices by providing tools for meetings, scorecards, vision alignment, and process documentation, ensuring companies build habits that support long-term excellence.About Mark AbbottMark Abbott is the Founder and CEO of Ninety, a platform designed to help small and mid-sized businesses implement and sustain business operating systems.

Eveline Shen, an award-winning leadership and social change strategist, is the principal at Leading Courageously, a for-profit company where she teaches her "Courageous Operating System" to help leaders of color face their challenges with courage, confidence, and strength. Previously, she spent 22 years as the executive director of Forward Together, building it into one of the country's largest multi-issue organizations led by women of color. Eveline, who goes by "Ev," helps leaders rewire the limiting patterns that hold them back — including perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and people-pleasing — and replace them with what she calls "courageous" actions. She is the author of Choosing to Lead Against the Current: The Courageous Operating System for Changemakers. Her target audience — both at Leading Courageously and for her book — is primarily mission-driven individuals and groups advocating for social change, many of whom instinctively view business leaders and entrepreneurs not as partners, but as adversaries. Yet, many of the core elements of Ev's "courageous operating system" apply universally, whether you're in the nonprofit or the for-profit world. Moreover, listeners to this episode will likely discover they have more in common with Ev and her followers than they imagined.

My guest today is Ari Emanuel. Ari runs one of the most influential portfolios in global sports, entertainment, and media. He oversees TKO, which includes the UFC and WWE, serves as the Executive Chairman of WME Group, and recently founded MARI, a new company focused on global events and live experiences. At the center of this conversation is Ari's anti-AI bet: as AI makes digital content cheaper and everyday work more automated, he believes the value will increasingly concentrate in live and physical experiences. He explains how he's building his portfolio around that belief, what defines a great live experience, and how he thinks about AI's impact on content and IP. Ari is best known as a dealmaker, and he shares the principles behind his success – relentless follow-up, over-communication, velocity, and an obsession with making things happen – and how those things become the operating system he uses today. If you're listening to this, I recommend watching the video of this interview. Ari's energy is constant and visceral, and gives a different dimension to this episode.

Dandapani, former Hindu monk who lived monastically for 10 years, shares teachings from his guru on treating the mind as an operating system that must be understood before it can be mastered. He explains the critical distinction between a focused life (giving undivided attention to whoever/whatever you're engaged with) and a purpose-focused life (where your life's purpose defines priorities that drive what you focus on). Drawing from Napoleon Hill and his guru's book *Merging with Siva*, Dandapani unpacks sexual energy transmutation—asking: if one sperm created a person who could change the world, what could a million create if that energy were harnessed instead of wasted? He reveals monastic teachings rarely shared: how to sleep, wake, eat, breathe, sit, and shower to put energy back into your body. Dandapani argues that without understanding how your mind works, you can't focus long enough on yourself to achieve self-reflection and discover what you truly want—making intentionality impossible before mastering the fundamental operating system we all carry but were never taught to use.
