You know those Wall Street movies where young, hungry salespeople make 500 dials a day?That was real life for Devon Drew.He built his career in distribution at some of the biggest asset managers in the world—including Vanguard—before walking away from it all to launch AssetLink, a tech platform designed to disrupt how fund distribution gets done.Because Devon realized something: the model wasn't just archaic, it was broken.Now, he's putting powerful tools in the hands of fund managers who've been overlooked for too long and giving wholesalers a way to work smarter, not harder.In this episode, Stacy and Devon discuss: What it's really like to go from Wall Street to founder lifeWhy the old-school “spray and pray” sales model needs to goHow AssetLink is making sales teams more efficient (and more human)What Silicon Valley taught Devon about innovation (and what Wall Street can learn from it)His experience with Google's accelerator program and what it means to build “tomorrow, today”More About Devon:Devon Drew is the Founder & CEO of AssetLink, an AI-powered platform modernizing fund distribution.With 18+ years in asset management and over $30B raised, his career spans major players like:Merrill Lynch & J.P. Morgan Chase (Financial Advisor)Fred Alger & American Century (VP, Wealth Management Sales)Vanguard ($10T AUM, Sr. Exec in Broker/Dealer Sales)In 2021, Devon founded DFD Partners, the early version of what would become AssetLink, a tool built to help under-resourced managers compete and win in distribution.Drew has been recognized for his innovative work, receiving several accolades, including:• Top 25 Founders of 2025 by Founders Square• 2025 AWD Pioneer Award• Top 10 to Watch in 2024 by wealthmanagement.com• Finalist for the Wealthies Award in 2023, 2024 & 2025 ---Running a fund is hard enough.Ops shouldn't be.Meet the team that makes it easier. | billiondollarbackstory.com/ultimus- - -Thinking about expanding your investor base beyond the US?

The Cincinnati Bengals (3-6) face a must-win scenario in Week 11 against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, November 16, at Acrisure Stadium. Trailing in the AFC North, the Bengals desperately need a victory to salvage their playoff hopes, especially after a gritty 24-17 win over Pittsburgh in Week 7, where Joe Flacco stepped in admirably, throwing for 342 yards.  However, with Joe Burrow's status uncertain amid injury whispers, the offense hinges on Ja'Marr Chase's explosiveness and a resurgent ground game led by Chase Brown. The Steelers enter as 5.5-point favorites, with a total of 49.5 points signaling a high-scoring affair.  Pittsburgh's defense, anchored by T.J. Watt, has terrorized quarterbacks, while their run-heavy attack with Najee Harris exploits Cincinnati's leaky front seven. Yet, the Bengals boast a perfect 2-0 divisional record this season and cover +5.5 in models like ESPN's, thanks to their pass rush disrupting Ben Roethlisberger's successor. Expect a revenge-fueled battle—Bengals ML +195 offers value for underdogs hungry to flip the script. Fresh off their first postseason berth since 2013, the Cincinnati Reds are buzzing with free agency ambition, and Kyle Schwarber tops the wishlist. ESPN's Jeff Passan calls signing the slugging DH the "perfect transaction" to turbocharge an offense that slashed .240 collectively in 2025. The Cincinnati native crushed 47 homers with an .928 OPS for the Phillies, thriving in a hitter-friendly park like GABP, where his pull power could yield 50+ dingers annually. Rumors hinge on a $60 million variable—Schwarber's Phillies loyalty versus Cincy's hometown pull and deeper pockets post-playoff revenue. A projected six-year, $150M deal could pair him with Elly De La Cruz for a fearsome core, transforming the Reds into NL Central contenders. Local ties ignite belief: Schwarber to Reds feels destined, per insiders, bridging nostalgia with firepower for 2026 glory.  Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Track Name Holy (Trap).

Caroline Gilbert — Director of Content & Editorial at Angi — joins Ross Hudgens to explore how one of the largest home-services brands is using AI to scale, transform, and optimize content operations. They discuss how Caroline's team doubled Angi's content library to 12,000+ articles, how AI helps maintain top-funnel visibility amid shifting search behaviors, and the nuanced balance between human expertise and generative automation. Caroline breaks down the three pillars of Angi's AI framework — generation, transformation, and operations — and how they've automated everything from brief creation to CMS ingestion while keeping a strong editorial voice. Plus: lessons learned from early AI missteps, real examples of disclosure testing, and how AI is reshaping both content creation and search behavior itself.

Got a story? I got a subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ReddX... In this episode of r/NeckbeardStories we partake in some brony cringe! Both of our OPs are pretty big into MLP, but they are not doing any favors for the fanbase. I appreciate one of them supporting artists on Tumblr, but I gotta say that the kind of art he's commissioning isn't something that I can sign off on... Luckily, despite the cringe both of these stories turn out to have a happy ending to them. It doesn't matter what your background is, you always need to treat people like people and not use them simply to get off. Neckbeards seem to learn this lesson particularly slow and it really does make my blood boil... So we must bring it to light so others don't suffer alone. For your fill of neckbeard stories we've got you covered with the freshest weeaboo, niceguy, and neckbeard happenings on reddit. Stick with ReddX for your daily dose of cringe with a side-dish of relatability. You might even feel good for dessert...

These neckbeard stories Top Posts of All Time from Reddit are made for you to enjoy any time you feel like it, so be sure to save my rSlash neckbeard stories playlist to your favorites!

Some of the top rSlash entitled parents channels I recommend checking out are the original rSlash, Redditor, fresh, r/Bumfries, VoiceyHere, Mr Reddit, Storytime and Darkfluff. These Reddit story channels inspired me to start my own Reddit story channel, with a focus on Entitled Parents stories and at times going into the r/pettyrevenge and r/choosingbeggars subreddit as well. Because most of my audience prefers Entitled Parents stories of Reddit, I tend to just stick with reading the r/EntitleParents Top Posts of All Time.

„Kiek mol hier. Kannst mi dat mol vörleesen? Dat is to lütt för mi.“ Jo, fröher, as Schooljung, bün ick dat oftmols vun Öllere froogt worrn. No de Schooltied hett man mi dat jümmers noch froogt. Dat gung so, bet ick bummeli 25 weer. Dor hett dat denn ni mehr lang duuert, un ick kreeg sülms mien erste Brill op de Nees. To Anfang heff ick de blots af un to opsett. Wegen de Eitelkeit un so. As ick overs 30 Johr tofot‘ harr, kunn ick mi dat ni mehr würkli utsööken: Wenn ick wat sehn wull, gung dat blots noch mit mien Spekuleeriesen. De Johrn trocken dorhen un de Brill'nglöös wurrn dicker. Dat weer al lang ni mehr nied för mi. Overs denn mitmol, tehmli genau vör een Johr wurr wat anners. Ick kann mi good op den Oogenblik besinn‘. Mit eenmol weer mi so, as wurr ick mit een Oog dör Nebel kieken. Ick heff mien Brill putzt un mi de Oogen schüüert. Overs de Nebel wull ni wechgohn. Annerlei, dat leggt sick bestimmt, heff ick dacht. Deh dat overs ni, un ick fung an mi Gedanken to moken. Op't Letzt‘ bün ick no'n Oogenarzt loopen. Und dor wurr mi seggt: „Tscha, Herr Kroll, se hebbt 'n Graun Star. Un twor op beide Oogen.“ Richti flau in Moog‘ wurr mi, as de Dokter mi vertellt hett, dat mien Oogen nu opereert warrn schulln. Mit'n Skalpell in de Oogen rümstochern. Dat hett mi jüst noch fehlt. Oh wat gung mi de Stift. Intwüschen sünd de beiden OPs al 'n poor Weeken her. Un wat schall ick seggen: Mitmol kann ick weller so scheun kieken as dormols in de Schooltied. An un för sick sogor noch 'n lütt‘ Stück beter. Ick kann ick mi jeden Dag vun vörn doröver wunnern, wat de Medizin allns trech kriegt. Un mien Brill bruuk ick nu ni mehr, weil ick so scheun kieken kann. Overs ick heff mi Finsterglöös in mien oled Gestell setten loten wegen de Eitelkeit, also weil man mi je gor ni mehr ohne Brill kinnt. Un ick freu mi al meist dorop, wenn mi een froogt: „Kannst mi dat vörleesen? Dat is to lütt för mi.“ Jo, wat dat Kieken angeiht, heff ick nu echt den Dörblick… In düssen Sinn

Out of more than 100 episodes, this is the one that brought Stacy to tears.And once you hear it, you'll understand why.Meet today's guest, Lon Stroschein, founder of Normal 40, where he works with high-achieving professionals who look successful on the outside but feel stuck on the inside.In this episode, he and Stacy talk about:His backstory – how he went from farm kid to D.C. insider to leading billion-dollar deals in corporate AmericaWhat made him walk away from all of it with no backup plan, just a gut feeling that he was meant for more Why “success” can still feel empty (even when everything looks great on paper)What it really means to outgrow your life (and how to know when you've hit that point)The freedom that comes when you stop pretending and finally get honest with yourselfAnd the surprising patterns he's seen after thousands of coaching convos with top performers who feel stuck, tooThis one's real, raw, and full of truth.If you've ever thought “there's gotta be more than this,” hit play.More About Lon: Lon Stroschein is the founder of Normal 40®—a movement for elite providers who've built success but feel quietly stuck. He helps high performers trade the life they've outgrown for one they actually want.A fourth-generation South Dakota farm kid, Lon's values were shaped by early mornings, hard work, and quiet grit. He spent six years working for a U.S. Senator, followed by six years in private banking and finance, then 14 years as a public company executive—leading strategy, growth, and M&A, including a $2.1B transaction.In 2022, Lon made The Trade—leaving the title, income, and image behind, without a backup plan. No resume. No safety net. Just a belief that his work there was done, his best decade was in front of him, but that it wasn't going to be found where he was standing. Since his resignation, Lon has coached thousands of elite professionals—physicians, executives, entrepreneurs, attorneys—who feel stuck at the top. Through 1,000+ confidential coaching calls (Rambles), he's built the world's most honest library of career transformation—and a library of some of the most incredible stories you will never hear. What he's learned is simple: most people aren't lost—they're just done pretending.Lon's best-selling book, The Trade, continues to reshape the lives of people he will never meet.Want More Help With Storytelling? +  Subscribe to my newsletter to get a weekly email that helps you use your words to power your growth:https://www.stacyhavener.com/subscribe   - - -Make The Boutique Investment Collective part of your Billion Dollar Backstory.

AI has stopped being a side project – it's rewriting the rules of how professional services businesses operate – and – stay competitive.Luke Alexander, Chief Digital & AI Officer at Four, has led an ambitious AI transformation in his business. From rolling out Microsoft Copilot across 300+ staff to launching client-facing AI services, Luke's approach to embedding AI is bold, practical, and refreshingly human.In this episode, Luke and Harv unpack what it really takes to move from AI experiments to AI integration – and the leadership, structure, and mindset that make it work.Here's what we dive into:• How Four operationalized AI across teams (and why fluency beats training)• The three categories of AI value – assistive, automated, and transformative• Why senior leadership buy-in is the single biggest success factor• How to overcome the “AI shame” still holding some teams back• The impact of AI on agency structures, staffing, and the future of junior rolesIf you're still just experimenting with AI – but haven't figured out how to truly embed it into the way you operate, this episode shows what that next stage looks like in practice — and what it demands from leadership.Additional Resources:

A lot of people build firms.Very few sell them.Even fewer?Walk away from it all to start again.But that's exactly what Toussaint Bailey did.After building and selling a $2B RIA, he's back on the founder path, this time leading Uplifting Capital, a values-first platform rethinking what private market investing could look like.In this episode, he sits down with Stacy to discuss: His backstory – How growing up in SoCal shaped his belief in “actionable faith in possibility”Why he left a law partnership to help build an RIAThe cultural ethos that scaled Enso Wealth to $2B AUM and an eventual exitWhy he launched Uplifting Capital and how it's redefining access to values-aligned private marketsA storytelling framework any fund manager can use to stand out (hint: it starts with “we're not that.”)About Toussaint Bailey:Toussaint's career has been built on a belief in the promise of possibility. As Founder and Managing Partner at Uplifting Capital, this belief manifests itself as investment in “Impact Alpha,” funds, and companies that produce compelling financial performance through gap-closing solutions in critical areas like education, healthcare, affordable housing, and renewable energy.  Prior to founding Uplifting Capital, he was CEO and Chairman of Enso Wealth Management, a private wealth firm with a mission to translate wealth into fulfillment for clients and advisors. Toussaint joined Enso shortly after its formation in 2017, overseeing the firm's rapid growth to nearly $2 billion of assets under management and its eventual acquisition. Before financial services, Toussaint spent over a decade as a practicing attorney. Toussaint has served in several advisory and board capacities, including Impact Investment Subcommittee of the Alternative & Direct Investment Securities Association; Investor Advisory Board of HBCU Founder Initiative; Advisory Board of Catalyst Housing Group; Advisory Board of SIY Global; and Board of Regents of Saint Mary's College of California. Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Book: Finding Meaning by David Kessler (the “sixth stage” of grief: finding meaning).Want More Help With Storytelling? +  Subscribe to my newsletter to get a weekly email that helps you use your words to power your growth:https://www.stacyhavener.com/subscribe   - - -Make The Boutique Investment Collective part of your Billion Dollar Backstory.

Este 10 de octubre se celebra el Día Mundial de la Salud Mental, y hace un mes, la Organización Panamericana de la Salud (OPS) lanzó una iniciativa para frenar el aumento de las tasas de suicidio en las Américas, la única región del mundo en registrar un incremento. Entrevistamos a Matías Irarrazaval, asesor regional de Salud Mental y Consumo de Sustancias de la OPS. RFI: ¿Por qué el suicidio es una de las grandes preocupaciones de salud pública en las Américas? Matías Irarrazaval: La tasa de suicidio en la región ha aumentado un 17% entre el 2000 y 2021, siendo la única región de la OMS en mostrar un aumento sostenido durante este periodo. Hay más de 100.000 personas en nuestra región que han muerto por suicidio anualmente entre el 2015 y el 2021, lo que representa una tasa de nueve de cada 100.000 habitantes. Cada suicidio es una tragedia que afecta también a las familias, a las comunidades. Sabemos que, en algunas subregiones, el porcentaje más alto de suicidio ocurre en el grupo de 25 a 49 años. Y en América Central, México y el Caribe Latino, como en el área andina, hay una gran proporción de suicidio que ocurre en el grupo de edad de entre 10 a 24 años. Reconocemos que hay algunos elementos culturales que pueden influir, por ejemplo, mayor aislamiento, mayor soledad, menor cohesión social, que evidentemente influye en la capacidad de las personas de poder pedir ayuda. Pero también reconocemos que elementos de violencia, pobreza y otros determinantes sociales afectan la salud mental. Y finalmente, en algunos casos esto puede llevar a comportamientos suicidas. Tenemos a casi la mitad de los países sin un programa, plan o estrategia nacional de prevención de suicidio. RFI: ¿Cuáles son las señales que pueden indicar un riesgo de suicidio? Matías Irarrazaval: En primer lugar, es importante entender que los temas de suicidio y las ideas de muerte se pueden presentar en un porcentaje importante de la población, especialmente la población adulta joven y también en personas adolescentes. Hablar sobre el suicidio no aumenta el riesgo de suicidio. Lo que sí aumenta es la posibilidad de prevención y la posibilidad de atención temprana para esa persona. Si notamos que un compañero de trabajo, un vecino, un familiar, se aísla mucho más que lo habitual, no tiene ganas de hacer las cosas que hacía habitualmente, no tiene disfrute de las cosas que habitualmente disfrutaba y lo notamos claramente con una disminución del ánimo y de la energía, además de alteraciones del sueño y del apetito, y si esas situaciones o signos se mantienen por más de dos semanas, es importante que esa persona pueda ser evaluada por un profesional de salud para revisar su estado de salud mental en general. La OPS lanzó un programa multisectorial para disminuir la tasa de suicidios. Por ahora tiene financiamiento para los próximos tres años.

Send us a textWhat if the fastest way to win more games is to stop spending outs? We take a hard look at the numbers that truly drive runs—on-base percentage, slugging percentage, and the deceptively simple OPS—and show how a smarter lineup can flip close scores in your favor. From a striking Barry Bonds breakdown to a candid reflection on batting a high school star second for extra plate appearances, we lay out why batting average and RBIs often hide the real story and how to build an order that multiplies opportunities instead of wasting them.We start by reframing offense around scarcity: every team owns a limited supply of outs, and the goal is to convert those into runs with ruthless efficiency. That's where OBP becomes the north star, rewarding hitters who control the zone and keep innings alive. Layer in slugging to capture extra-base impact, then combine them into OPS to compare hitters cleanly. You'll hear a simple head-to-head that exposes why a .265 hitter with a .900 OPS can outproduce a .300 hitter with a .760 OPS, especially when every plate appearance is magnified in seven-inning high school games.From Moneyball's 2002 A's to the 2004 Red Sox and the Rays' worst-to-first leap, the pattern holds: teams that get on base and hit for power score more and win more. We translate that into a clear blueprint for coaches—elevate your highest OBP bats to the top, stack reliable power behind them, and give your best OPS hitters the most turns. Then we balance the model with practical judgment: park factors, matchups, and game flow still matter, but they should refine, not replace, your default. Walk away with drills and culture shifts that reward plate discipline, punish bad swing decisions, and celebrate the unsexy walk as a winning play.Ready to rebuild your card with purpose and pick up a few extra wins?

In this episode of r/NeckbeardStories we dive into the DeadpoolBeard saga once again. We also meet Devilbeard. While both of these neckbeard stories grant us glimpses at neckbeards who are at least passably social, they never fair to let their cringe flag fly before too long. It seems like they could almost be normal people, but those are the neckbeards that you need to watch out for more than any other! Let's investigate some neckbeard stories together and see what we can learn from our intrepid OPs, encounterers and chroniclers of Deadpool beard and Devil beard. It doesn't matter what your background is, you always need to treat people like people and not use them simply to get off. Neckbeards seem to learn this lesson particularly slow and it really does make my blood boil... So we must bring it to light so others don't suffer alone. For your fill of neckbeard stories we've got you covered with the freshest weeaboo, niceguy, and neckbeard happenings on reddit. Stick with ReddX for your daily dose of cringe with a side-dish of relatability. You might even feel good for dessert...

The One Thing You Must Nail When Starting Your Cash-Based PT Clinic: Your Niche In this episode, Doc Danny Matta explains the #1 decision that will make or break a new cash-based clinic: defining a clear, winnable niche. He shares real client stories (Rainmaker → Mastermind), how his own clinic launched by owning the CrossFit space, and a simple 3-part test to choose a niche that actually grows your business. Quick Ask Like the show? Share it with a clinician friend or on your IG stories and tag Danny—help PT Biz move closer to the goal of adding $1B in cash-based services to our profession. Episode Summary Core thesis: If you don't define your niche early, your business will stall. If you do, traction accelerates. Rainmaker → Mastermind arc: Rainmaker helps you go full-time; Mastermind helps you scale beyond yourself into a standalone space and team. Real example: A client's schedule exploded after she narrowed her audience, created content for them, and showed up where they congregate (workshops + the right Facebook groups). Danny's launch playbook: He chose CrossFit in Atlanta (credibility + interest), then expanded later to runners and entrepreneurs as the clinic's reputation grew. Mission + money: “No money, no mission.” You can do pro bono after your model supports itself. The 3-Box Niche Test Can you help them? Litmus test: if you only got paid after they achieved the outcome, would you take the bet? Do you like working with them? Authentic energy wins. If you don't enjoy the group, your marketing will feel forced—and flop. Can they afford you? Some populations (e.g., heavy Medicaid pediatrics) won't support a cash model. Match your service to a segment with willingness and ability to pay. Why Narrow First (Then Expand) Speed: Clear messaging and offers convert faster when you're “the go-to” for a specific problem in a specific community. Referrals: Specialists are easier to recommend than generalists. Ops simplicity: Marketing, workshops, and content focus around one avatar—less guesswork, more reps. Expansion later: Once you dominate one niche, broaden to adjacent groups with confidence and social proof. Field Notes & Examples CrossFit start: High credibility (MobilityWOD teaching, comp-team experience) + enthusiastic buyer segment (membership fees, gear, coaching) = fast traction. Entrepreneurs niche: Emerged organically via networks; recurring “continuity” check-ins became a valuable service. Runners: Military background created deep reps with run-related injuries—an easy adjacent expansion. Pro Tips You Can Use Today Audit your schedule: Which past patients did you love helping? Start there. Map the congregation points: List 5 IRL spaces (gyms, clubs, studios) and 5 digital spaces (FB groups, forums, local hashtags) your niche already uses. Publish niche-proof: Create 3 quick pieces: a “Start Here” guide, a case study, and a workshop outline tailored to one avatar. Use the bet test: Would you take the patient if you only got paid after the result? Plan for give-back later: Build profitability first, then add pro bono for populations you care about. Notable Quotes “Until I got really clear on who I wanted to work with, I struggled to get traction. When I defined my person, my schedule exploded.” “No money, no mission. A strong business lets you create the impact you want—including pro bono.” “The riches are in the niches. Specialize first; expand later.” Action Items Write a one-page niche brief: problem, desired outcome, objections, congregation points. Book 1–2 workshops this month with that niche's top local hubs. Record a 3-part content series answering the avatar's biggest pains. Set a 30-day focus rule: all marketing time goes to this one avatar. Programs Mentioned Clinical Rainmaker: Coaching + plan to get you full-time in your clinic. Mastermind: Scale beyond yourself into space, team, and systems.
