The prosecution's motive case against Kouri Richins is built in dollars and bank statements. Forensic accountant Brooke Karrington testified that by March 2022, Kouri carried $7.5 million in debt, was hemorrhaging $80,000 monthly in payments, and owed four payday lenders $2,100 every single day. Her business account was "perpetually in the hole." December 2021 alone saw 77 overdraft transactions.One day after Eric Richins died, Kouri purchased a $2.9 million Midway mansion. Listed it seven days later. It foreclosed. The $1.35 million from Eric's life insurance policies? Gone within three months. By September 2022, she allegedly had $800 left.But the defense hasn't called a single witness yet—and they may have already established reasonable doubt.Through cross-examination, defense attorneys exposed what they argue is an outcome-driven investigation. Dr. Erik Christensen admitted tests that could have determined whether Eric was a long-term fentanyl user—urine, eye fluid, liver tissue, hair follicles—were never performed. He conceded hair follicle results would have factored into his manner-of-death determination.Carmen Lauber spent hours under cross-examination. She admitted testing positive for methamphetamine during the relevant period, changing her story after receiving immunity from three jurisdictions, and being told by a detective that "the goal is to convict Kouri for aggravated murder."Crime scene technician Chelsea Gipson acknowledged the kitchen and basement were never searched the night Eric died. The Moscow Mule copperware was never tested. An empty hydrocodone bottle in Eric's nightstand was never analyzed.Defense attorney Bob Motta analyzes whether the defense has peaked too early—or if their 35 waiting witnesses will finish what cross-examination started.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The mindset of a poker pro can now be applied outside of a narrow game.In Episode #517 of 'Meanderings', Juan & I discuss: Annie Duke's 'Thinking In Bets' book and how the poker mindset can reshape everyday decision-making, why focusing on process over outcomes matters, how using AI as a sounding board revealed hidden risk-taking in my own finances, testing assumptions in small experiments before going all-in, how arbitrage opportunities appear with prediction markets and why clarity on desired outcomes should drive bet-sizing. No support for this week so no beanie either. Also my laptop died suddenly hence the rather curt cut off at the end. Luckily we were almost done anyway phew.

AI is no longer a futuristic add-on for consulting firms, it's reshaping how firms operate, price, hire, and deliver outcomes.In this episode Brent sits down with Tom Rodenhauser of K2 Consulting Research (formerly Kennedy Intelligence) to unpack what's actually happening inside consulting firms as they operationalize AI. From boutique firms building knowledge engines that rival global players, to the governance structures required to protect client trust, to the accelerating shift away from time-based billing, this conversation separates hype from reality.Key Topics CoveredHow boutique firms are competing with global giantsThe changing role of consultants (especially junior talent)Governance isn't optional, it's the prerequisite for trust.Transparency as a competitive advantageOutcome-based pricing is the future, but only for firms that can clearly define and measure results.Measurable internal impact and the time savings creating space for higher-value conversations and business development Hosted on Acast.

There are claims a Parliamentary inquiry into online safety is rushing toward regulation without fully considering the consequences. A Select Committee is backing a social media ban for under 16s and calling for an online regulator and tougher controls on harmful apps and algorithms. ACT MP Parmjeet Parmar initiated the inquiry last year but says the recommendations don't have adequate analysis. She told Ryan Bridge concerns about youth online are real, and we need to find real solutions for them. Parmar says it's a complex issue and wasn't dealt with the seriousness that parents and young people deserve. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I walk through a complete 30-step playbook for building a modern SaaS company using AI agents, media, and sub-niche positioning. The core argument is that SaaS is evolving rather than dying, and the builders who win are the ones who combine a focused workflow product with a media flywheel and agent-powered execution. Drawing on my experience advising TikTok, Reddit, and building three venture-backed companies, I lay out a step-by-step framework any solo builder or small team can follow from niche selection through to becoming the default execution layer in their market. I'm hosting a free workshop so you can build your business in the age of AI. Sign up here: https://startup-ideas-pod.link/build-with-ai-2026 Timestamps 00:00 – Intro 01:18 – Step 1: Start with a sub-niche inside a big market 02:21 – Step 2-5: Map Workflow end to end 06:37 – Step 6-7: Create scroll-stopping content 10:15 – Steps 8–9: Double down on organic and run paid ads on winners 11:11 – Step 10: Capture emails from day one 11:47 – Steps 11–13: Manually perform the workflow and document every step 13:40 – Steps 14–16: Turn mechanical tasks into agent workflows and connect to real tools 14:47 – Step 17: Add orchestration, retries, and verifications 16:32 – Steps 18–19: Store user preferences and launch with high-touch onboarding 18:20 – Steps 20–21: Publish measurable proof and move to per-task pricing 21:21 – Steps 22–23: Outcome pricing and compounding value 22:07 – Steps 24–27: Expand workflows, build switching costs, create case studies 23:25 – Steps 28–30: Hire from the niche, reinvest profits, become the default layer 24:08 – Closing thoughts Key Points Start in a specific sub-niche, not a broad market — that is where sustainable cash flow lives, not VC competition. The future of SaaS starts as a service business: manually performing the workflow is how I learn what to automate. Media is a core business function, not an afterthought — content creation runs in parallel with product development from day one. Mechanical tasks are AI's strongest suit; separating judgment tasks from mechanical tasks is the key architectural decision. Per-task and outcome-based pricing is replacing per-seat models, and indie builders have a structural advantage in making that shift. Orchestration — coordinating agents, validating outputs, and resolving issues — is the new interface layer and the highest-value position to own.

Less than one week since the initiation of Operation Epic Fury, and nearly everyone is wondering: What will be the domestic reaction to America's war in Iran?  With this being the second time the U.S. has gone into Iran, something needs to change so a third time never happens. “It would behoove Donald Trump to find a magical solution” and remove Iran's “theocratic government,” replacing it with “a benevolent government,” explains Victor Davis Hanson on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” “ If we get stuck in a quagmire where we have to have ground troops and we get into the hundreds of American dead, it'll be a disaster for the Republican Party in the midterms.”

This is our final anchor in this series, at least for now. And I want to be really intentional about how we close this chapter together. Moving on from here, we will return to our regular bi-weekly episodes. And who knows, if there is a need and if it feels aligned, I may gather these anchors into their own dedicated resource so that you can revisit them whenever you want. On a recent call I had with my personal development coach, she said to me, you know, you haven't built a business. Your business has built you. And I immediately knew exactly what she meant by this because I've always from the very beginning from that very first vivid vivid dream I had of ōNLē and the products I've known that ōNLē is much bigger than me. She went on to explain that ōNLē is its own consciousness and that I was given a really hard experience so that this consciousness ōNLē could flow through me and I could live out my life purpose of sharing this profound healing.And I know this is true for you too. Whatever you are experiencing right now, whether you are healing your child or yourself or you are expanding and stepping into the next version of yourself or building a business or experiencing a hard or very delightful time in your marriage, whatever you are experiencing in life right now, it's bigger than you.You are so brave, you are so courageous, and I am so proud of you. Now, before you go, let's just take a minute here to gently set our anchors for the day. Today, I commit to nourishing my body with microbiome-friendly food and abundant water. Today, I choose to support my gut, mind, brain, nervous system, and liver with my rebalancing and maintenance supplements. Today, I trust that I'm safe and that everything is always working for me. And today, I will choose one small action that supports the life I am affirming. That small action could just be listening to this episode. It could be doing the journaling prompts, even though it's going to feel hard. There's a big part of you that wants to resist because this state that you've been living in for probably most of your life, it's familiar. Your nervous system's job is to keep you safe in that familiar. but it's okay to slowly expand beyond, to move where you wanna go in a way that feels good in your body.May your heart feel supported, your body feel safe, and your intuition lead your day. Trust your body, follow your gut. Thanks for listening!

In this episode, The Annuity Man discusses:  Building lifetime income as the real retirement goal Securing your income floor before adding complexity Using annuities to solve income and protection problems Locking in guarantees before longevity shifts the math   Key Takeaways:  Retirement planning is not about account balances but about creating income you cannot outlive. "Chapter One" is for accumulation, but "Chapter Two" only works when a reliable lifetime income replaces your paycheck. Without that income foundation, lifestyle freedom in retirement is fragile. Guaranteed sources like Social Security, pensions, and recurring IRA distributions form your income floor. If that floor already covers your lifestyle, additional annuities may be unnecessary. Retirement strength begins with certainty, not excess products. Annuities are designed to address four needs: principal protection, income for life, legacy, and long-term care. For lifetime income, structures can protect spouses and beneficiaries, countering the common "money goes poof" misconception. Proper design determines outcomes. As AI and medical advances extend life expectancy, insurers will eventually adjust payout assumptions downward. Today's guarantees may be more favorable than future quotes once updated tables reflect longer lifespans. For those planning to secure a lifetime income, timing could materially impact results.   "If lifetime income is the ultimate outcome, you need to start planning for that now. You need to start locking those guarantees in now." —  Stan The Annuity Man   Connect with The Annuity Man:  Website: http://theannuityman.com/  Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com  Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g  Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!

Why B2B deals stall isn't about competition - it's about buyer indecision. Consultative selling, value-based selling, and traditional B2B sales strategy fail when sellers focus on solutions instead of driving buyer decisions. Harry breaks down why sales momentum disappears even in engaged deals. Buyers don't go quiet because they lack information - they stall because they haven't resolved the consequences of change. When the cost of inaction isn't made explicit, doing nothing feels rational. For sales leadership teams, sales coaching cultures, and anyone serious about modern B2B selling, this is a reset on how to create urgency without pressure.

This week, I sit down again with Nathan Collier, Recruiting Service Operations Director here at Patrick Jones Baseball. Together, we discuss the importance of mindset and process orientation in baseball, particularly during the in-season period. We explore common challenges players face, such as the "I'm Screwed Syndrome," and we talk about the need for players to adopt a process-driven mindset rather than a results-driven one. We also discuss the impact of social media on young athletes, the role of parents, and the significance of having both an approach and a plan at the plate.

What if the very thing you're gripping so tightly is the reason it's not happening? In this episode of The Spitfire Podcast, we dive into one of coaching's most powerful (and paradoxical) principles: detaching from the outcome. When life feels off-kilter and out of control, our instinct is often to clench tighter—to force results, chase certainty, and obsess over the "right" ending. But what if the real power lies in letting go? Lauren shares personal reflections on navigating unexpected life shifts, the illusion of control, and the transformational shift from focusing on outputs to owning your inputs. You'll explore: Why obsessing over specific outcomes can actually repel them The difference between having a vision and gripping for control How daily inputs shape long-term results The hidden ways we reinforce our own setbacks Simple practices to create momentum, joy, and resilience This episode is a grounded, honest reminder: you can't control the outcome—but you can control who you become in the process. Plant the seeds. Water them daily. Then let go—and watch what grows.      

The biggest offer isn't always the smartest deal. And accepting the wrong offer? That can undo years of your diligent effort to create a legacy with lasting value.

Learn the red flags to watch for and the right questions to ask so you choose a buyer who protects your legacy, your team, and your future. For more information, read Diwakar's article here:https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/how-evaluate-buyside-buyers-hidden-risk-most-healthcare-diwakar-sinha-isdde/

You've committed to aiming high.You've accepted the hard work.So why does something still feel tense beneath the surface?In this final episode of the series, we uncover the third bottleneck to high performance: fear. Specifically, the three forms that shape how ambitious teens approach college admissions:Loss pain – What might I lose if I go all in?Process pain – What will this journey cost me emotionally?Outcome pain – What if I do everything right and it still isn't enough?You'll learn why attaching your identity to a single admissions decision creates unnecessary pressure — and how shifting your focus from “Where will I get in?” to “Who am I becoming?” removes desperation while making you more competitive.This episode ends with a powerful journaling exercise designed to help you confront fear and move forward with clarity and confidence.-----To register for the Ivy League Challenge, visit our websiteTo follow on Instagram:  @TheIvyLeagueChallengeTo join us on our Facebook group for parents

Do you want to know investment success secrets? Look no further than today's discussion! The long-dominant "buy the Magnificent 7 and forget it" tech trade is fading, with sector rotation favoring energy, materials, and staples while technology and discretionary lag. Drawing on presidential cycle data, it seems markets often experience weakness and corrections in midterm years before potential strength later, though today's backdrop of sticky inflation, high debt, and constrained Federal Reserve policy could challenge historical norms. Liquidity over politics is the true market driver and power preservation incentives may shape fiscal and economic decisions and highlights opportunities in defensive sectors and fixed income if rates fall. As always, disciplined investing is the most important: avoid ego, abandon rigid outcome-based predictions, adopt scenario-based thinking, respect price action, and define in advance when you are wrong. We discuss... The long-standing strategy of simply buying mega-cap tech stocks is breaking down as sector leadership rotates. Energy, materials, and staples are outperforming while technology and discretionary stocks lag, signaling possible market-top behavior. Historical sector rotation patterns suggest markets may be transitioning from expansion toward a late-cycle phase. Midterm presidential years historically bring volatility and frequent 10–20% corrections before potential recovery. Liquidity is framed as the primary force driving market cycles. Today's environment of sticky inflation, high debt, and constrained Federal Reserve policy may weaken the reliability of historical patterns. Defensive sectors and fixed income could benefit if growth slows and interest rates decline. Political incentives around power preservation may influence fiscal decisions and economic optics heading into elections. Investors are warned not to blindly "buy the dip," especially in volatile assets like crypto. The hosts stress that price action ultimately determines whether an investment thesis is right or wrong. Ego and overconfidence are identified as major threats to long-term investing success. Outcome-based thinking is discouraged in favor of scenario-based planning across multiple probable outcomes. Behavioral research shows experts often double down when wrong, reinforcing the importance of flexibility. Successful investing requires humility, adaptability, risk management, and clearly defined exit strategies.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.cominvesting-success-secrets-793

In Part 2 of this conversation, Emma Murray and Dwayne Kerrigan move from awareness into practical performance tools. Emma introduces one of the most powerful distinctions in high performance: critique versus criticism.She explains why self-criticism is a survival response that quietly destroys confidence, slows learning, and locks people into repeated mistakes. Through examples from elite sport, sales, leadership, parenting, and everyday life, Emma breaks down how to review performance by examining the entire process — thoughts, feelings, actions, and results — rather than attacking outcomes or identity.The conversation also dives into fear-based leadership, tunnel vision, stress responses, and why people perform worse when they feel watched, pressured, or unsafe. Emma shares actionable techniques to regain presence under pressure, including breath, body awareness, and “small focus” anchors that keep the mind out of fight-or-flight. This episode equips leaders, entrepreneurs, and performers with a repeatable framework for learning faster, leading better, and performing consistently — even when stakes are high.Episode Highlights:00:00 – Emma on self-kindness under pressure and stopping the internal threat response01:00 – Dwayne intro + framing Part 2: turning attention and mindset into action02:00 – Critique over criticism: how thoughts drive feelings, actions, and results03:30 – Outcome focus vs process focus and why pressure hijacks performance05:05 – How to critique the entire performance process (thinking, feeling, doing)06:40 – Turning failure into growth by extracting the right lessons08:00 – Why quarterly reviews fail and daily reflection matters09:45 – Coaching teams beyond checklists and task correction11:25 – A-game vs B-game language and building awareness in teams13:40 – Leaders, fear, control, and psychological safety15:30 – Running toward outcomes vs accessing creativity and big-picture thinking17:30 – The “flashlight of attention” metaphor for leaders and parents19:40 – Stress responses, presence, and anchoring attention (breath, feet, listening)22:00 – Training attention as a performance muscle25:45 – Stress cycles, recovery, and sustainable performance29:10 – Introduction to the Closed Eye Process and presence training32:00 – Deep dive: critiquing vs criticizing explained step-by-step36:30 – Survival wiring, subconscious files, and performance memory39:30 – The CHIMP brain, danger signals, and slipping into B-game42:30 – Small controllable focus as the pathway back to A-gameKey Takeaways:Critique examines process, not personal worthThoughts drive feelings, feelings drive actions, actions drive resultsGrowth comes from extracting learnings — not from failure aloneFear narrows focus and creates tunnel visionSmall, controllable focus prevents fight-or-flightConnection reduces fear and restores executionQuotes:“Failure does not give you growth if you are not actually eliciting the lessons from it.” - Emma Murray“Feet on floor, bum on chair … Bring your attention to your feet, your bum, your breath … those things are gonna anchor you back into the present moment” - Emma Murray“When all this fails, use your breath” - Emma Murray“The human mind cannot carry two thoughts simultaneously.” - Dwayne...

Robin Zander hosted a Snafu webinar for the Sidebar community on non-sales selling—think self-promotion for career transitions, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and product people. The goal: learn to "sell yourself" without the ick factor.   Participants shared fears: follow-ups feel intimidating, sales feels slimy, and success seems like a numbers game. Robin reframed it: selling is really about enrollment—being a chief evangelist for your work, not begging for attention.   Drawing on stories from his childhood pumpkin patch, his time as a personal trainer (where desperation lost him clients), and opening Robin's Cafe in San Francisco (raising $40k, serving multiple stakeholders, training staff with Danny Meyer's principles), he showed the difference between selling from need vs. service. Long-term success comes from genuine connection, curiosity, optimism, and passion.   Attendees explored their "authentic attitude" and reflected on times self-promotion felt good versus slimy. Exercises included mapping all the people who benefit from your work—employees, customers, managers, mentees, community—and practicing generosity in selling (a "Miracle on 34th Street" mindset: help customers even if it means sending them elsewhere).   In Q&A, Robin tackled: Asking for promotions as modeling for others, especially women and minorities Persistence in follow-ups (yes, emailing Mark Benioff 53 times counts) Relationship-based enterprise selling Avoiding fear-based AI marketing by knowing who you serve and what problem you solve Recommended reading: Setting the Table (Danny Meyer), Unreasonable Hospitality (Will Guidara), The New Strategic Selling.   Robin also shared upcoming Snafu conference details (March 5, Oakland Museum of California) and reminded everyone: Snafu = situation normal; all fucked up. 00:00 Start 01:06 Audience Fears About Selling Robin Zander welcomes 93 participants to the webinar Notes the session is interactive with exercises planned Encourages participants to drop questions in chat or interrupt him Last 15–20 minutes reserved for questions Robin introduces himself briefly Focuses on storytelling as a tool for self-promotion Shares experience as a community builder Runs a conference called Responsive since 2016 (not Snafu) Tools, structures, and company cultures for resilient organizations Two-day event each September on the future of work Focus on building resilience in organizations Observations on rapid change Technology and work-life changes happening at a fast pace Questions about resilience in individuals Traits needed in careers, personal relationships, professional relationships Ability to stay resilient through change Robin frames his expertise Emphasizes his strength in asking questions and fostering honest conversations Labels himself a reluctant salesperson Not the world's leading expert on self-promotion or selling Key lessons from research and interviews Two buckets matter in business and life: Example: Sidebar community forming coalitions for learning and action Operational excellence: being competent and at least as good as others Promotion/enrollment/sales: standing up, saying what you want, building coalitions Started interviewing people about influence and persuasion Started a weekly newsletter called Snafu Written by hand, not AI Shares lessons from his life and others about self-promotion and resilience Focus on courage to take action: raising hand, offering something valuable Core characteristics of self-promotion and selling yourself Connecting with others: art of connection Courage to ask: inspired by Amanda Palmer's TED Talk and book The Art of Asking Opposes traditional "always be closing" sales mentality Advocates for simply asking for what you want Current work mostly involves storytelling for large companies Clients include Supersonic, Airbnb, Zappos, and others 12:25 Service as the Core Principle Robin introduces the concept of storytelling for self-promotion Stories used to: Get promotions Build coalitions Propel career or organizational growth Emphasizes turning personal, career, or company stories into "commercials" Focus of today's talk: self-promotion with impact Core principle: service Showing up from a place of helping others Through helping others, also helping oneself Distinguishes between sleazy salespeople and effective self-promoters Childhood anecdote: Robin's pumpkin patch Tended plants all summer, learned responsibility and care Harvested pumpkins and sold them using a small red tin box labeled "money" Ran "Robin's Pumpkin Patch" for five to seven years At age five, father had him plant pumpkin seeds Engaged neighborhood kids for fun, collaborative promotion Explained product (pumpkins) enthusiastically to potential buyers Used scarecrow costumes and creative gestures to attract attention Lessons learned from pumpkin patch: Authentic enthusiasm creates value Helping people do what they were already inclined to do Early experience of earning and serving simultaneously Self-promotion is most effective when it's service-driven, not manipulative Applying childhood lesson to career and business Asking for a raise Persuading companies to choose one service over another Promoting oneself or others (e.g., Evan, web developer) Key principle: approach self-promotion from delight and service, not need or fear Authentic enthusiasm as foundation for: Interactive exercise for participants Not influenced by sleep deprivation or stress Could be inspired by childhood or adult experiences Opposite of fear; personal and unique for each participant Question posed: what is your authentic attitude when self-promoting? Examples shared from participants: Curiosity Passion Inspiration Service to others Observation Possibility Insight Value Helping others Creativity Belief in serendipity Optimism Key takeaway from exercise and story Promoting from delight, enthusiasm, and service Promoting from need or fear Two versions of self-promotion: Effective self-promotion aligns with authenticity and enthusiasm, creating value for others while advancing oneself 18:36 Gym Job and Needy Selling Robin shares the next story and sets up the next exercise Gym culture is sales-heavy Initial motivation: love of fitness, desire to help people Quickly realizes environment incentivizes personal trainers to sell aggressively Timeframe: ~20 years later, at age 20, moved to San Francisco First post-college job: personal trainer in gyms Early experience at gyms Key lesson from early failure Selling from need feels gross Promoting oneself from fear or desperation leads to poor results Recognizes similarity to unwanted sales calls received personally First authentic success in self-promotion Worked at Petro and World's Gym in San Francisco, Pilates instructor Owner confronted Robin after two weeks: no clients, potential clients being lost to others Threatened termination by Friday if no clients acquired Robin froze under pressure, approached clients but with needy, desperate energy Outcome: fired by Friday, left gym Encounters man in pain on Valencia Street, offers help as personal trainer Approach comes from genuine care, desire to serve Leads to three-year working relationship, consistent sessions, good income Next client: world-famous photographer Michael Light at UCSF swimming pool Client comes from natural connection, not pushy salesmanship Dichotomy observed: Pushy, need-based self-promotion → freeze, poor results Service-oriented self-promotion → natural connections, sustained relationships Exercise for participants Prompt: identify two moments: One time self-promoting felt slimy → what were you doing? One time self-promoting felt good → what were you doing differently? Two-minute reflection / chat participation Participant reflections/examples Slimy examples: Interviewing for a job during layoffs, giving desperate energy Selling P&L at a hyperscaler Selling computers and printers in UK post-college Sales emails getting ghosted Feeling inauthentic or performative, taking advantage of someone Good examples: Offering services out of care and love rather than ROI Showing impact of work to junior child Knowing services add real value and solve a challenge Being clear on what the other person needs Key takeaway Self-promotion feels different depending on intent and knowledge Slimy → desperate, inauthentic, unclear value to recipient Authentic → service-driven, clear value, connection-focused Effective self-promotion combines knowing your value and serving others, not just pushing for personal gain 25:35 Miracle on 34th Street Lesson Feeling good in self-promotion comes from genuinely helping, solving problems, and sharing information Santa Claus hired at Macy's to hold kids and give candy canes, but real goal: persuade parents to buy from Macy's Santa instead sends parents to competitor to truly serve them Macy's manager initially furious Outcome: customers feel genuinely served, return praising Macy's, become loyal fans Robin references Miracle on 34th Street (original version) Key insight: providing real value, even if it benefits someone else, eventually returns value to you "Put enough bread across the water, eventually good things come back" Participant reflections Slimy: knowing audience expects judgment, catering to them for approval Good: giving the gift of knowledge, providing service freely Takeaway: authentic self-promotion is rooted in service, generosity, and sharing expertise, not manipulating for immediate gain 27:45 Starting Robin's Cafe Through Service Robin shares a major professional turning point: opening Robin's Cafe in 2016 No restaurant experience beyond college busing tables Opened in three weeks, eventually grew to 15 employees by 2018 Worked in multiple industries: Pumpkin patch, personal trainer, circus performer Opened a café/restaurant in Mission District, San Francisco Courage and conviction came from clear focus on service to others Employees: create a great workplace, go-giver culture Investors: $40k raised from friends/family, provided value and potential return Landlords (ODC, nonprofit dance center): wanted success of business to support community Customers: diverse—tech workers, kids in dance classes, local community Robin himself: financial sustainability, learning, personal growth Key audiences served by Robin's Cafe Approach to challenges Used Danny Meyer's Setting the Table as a service-focused framework for employees Philosophy: "giving in order to get paid" Examples: spouse, kids, dog, manager, peers, mentees, clients, community, customers, extended family, mentors Served multiple stakeholders during crises: break-ins, flooding, city permitting, neighborhood issues Exercise: identify all the people who benefit from your work or success Key idea: the more stakeholders served, the easier self-promotion becomes, because it comes from service, not need or pressure Show up thinking: does this serve the person I'm talking to? Principle: selling yourself from a place of service Consider multiple stakeholders simultaneously Audience question: elaborate on applying this service mindset specifically to asking for a promotion Tying service to self-promotion in career advancement Result: asking for a raise, applying for jobs, pitching clients—all easier and more authentic 38:11 Promotion As Service Asking for a promotion from a place of service Example: doing the role already, deserving recognition, asking for what you believe you've earned. Personal perspective: advocating for yourself is a form of service to yourself Recognize other stakeholders in the process: Modeling courage and advocacy for the next generation Authority enables ideas to be taken more seriously Stories gained from new responsibilities enhance value to clients or teams People you mentor, especially women or underrepresented groups The organization: your promotion can make it stronger Your family or children: showing them what it looks like to advocate Concrete examples Outcome: trajectory of career positively influenced, demonstrated courage, modeled behavior Asking first time for a manager role Later asking for VP title as a director Courage and small steps Courage = acting despite fear, not absence of fear Practice by taking incremental steps toward what scares you Avoid masking or hesitation; direct action builds confidence and results Persistence and follow-up Busy people require patience and multiple nudges Example: Mark Stubbings emailing Mark Benioff 53 times before a yes Persistence = respectful, consistent follow-ups Role modeling for women and minorities Demonstrates that asking is a normal, expected, and service-oriented act Many don't ask for promotions or raises due to upbringing or cultural norms Modeling advocacy teaches the next generation, including children, to speak up Service mindset in practice Approach self-promotion by asking: is this good for the other person? Keep intention aligned with service, not desperation Books for guidance: Setting the Table – Danny Meyer: service-driven sales and employee culture Unreasonable Hospitality – Will Guidara: lessons from the restaurant world on giving value and delight Key takeaways for promotion and asking Serve yourself, your mentees, your organization, and your broader audience Take small, courageous steps to ask for what you deserve Follow up respectfully and consistently; don't assume silence = no Self-promotion becomes easier and authentic when rooted in service, not fear or need Snafu Newsletter Weekly newsletter written by Robin Covers influence, persuasion, and modern workplace dynamics A resource for ongoing learning and practical insights 56:55 Where to Find Robin Robin's newsletter covers influence, persuasion, and modern work.

Outcome-based selling in healthcare sales is the difference between educating your buyer and actually moving the deal forward. In this episode, Harry sits down with Simona Grandits, VP EMEA at QIAGEN and newly selected EU Women Leaders 2026 cohort member, to explore how modern healthcare sales leaders balance scientific credibility with commercial discipline - without losing momentum. Simona shares how consultative selling, customer centricity, and disciplined stakeholder management must work together to drive real sales performance in complex healthcare and medical device sales environments. She reflects on what disciplined sales leadership truly requires across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

This month, we've had the privilege of praying for marriages every single day — reading names, lifting up stories, and standing in the gap for couples who are hurting, hoping, and hanging on. And as we've done that, it's stirred something deeper in us about what prayer in marriage really is… and what it isn't. In this episode, we talk honestly about how easy it is to confuse worrying with praying. We think about the problem. We rehearse conversations in our heads. We stress. We analyze. But that's not the same thing as bringing it before the Lord. Prayer isn't a negotiation. It's not a way to convince God to take our side or fix our spouse. It's not a spiritual wish list where we hope He delivers exactly what we ordered. Real prayer is alignment. It's surrender. It's allowing God to reshape our hearts until our desires begin to look more like His. We share what bold faith actually looks like — the kind that asks for miracles without demanding them. The kind that believes God can restore what feels impossible, while still trusting Him if the answer comes differently than we hoped. That tension is something we've lived. We've prayed desperate prayers. We've asked for big miracles. And we've also had to surrender outcomes we couldn't control. If you've been praying for your spouse, praying for your marriage, or maybe just thinking about it more than actually talking to God about it, this conversation is for you. Maybe the prayer that changes your marriage isn't “Lord, fix them.” Maybe it's “Lord, change me.” The Redeemed Marriage Website Subscribe to our YouTube channel

In this solo episode, Travis Chappell breaks down a powerful mindset shift that applies to habits, wealth, fitness, and business: the real problem isn't that you want too much — it's that you want it too fast. Travis shares practical examples around building routines, growing income, and avoiding burnout, while explaining how to balance urgency in your daily actions with patience in long-term results. If you've ever tried to overhaul your life overnight (and quit a week later), this episode will help you slow down, focus on one thing at a time, and finally build momentum that lasts. On this episode we talk about: Why stacking too many habits at once leads to burnout How to build sustainable routines by focusing on just one change at a time The myth of starting with multiple income streams Balancing long-term patience with short-term urgency Applying “urgent effort, patient outcome” to money, health, and business growth Top 3 Takeaways Start with one habit, not twelve. Master a single behavior before layering in anything else. Build one income stream first. Wealth grows through focus, then strategic diversification — not chaos. Adopt urgency in effort, patience in outcome. Work hard today while thinking in decades, not days. Notable Quotes “The problem is not that you want too much — it's that you want it too fast.” “Just do the first thing. Do the one thing and get it done.” “Be urgent in your effort, but patient in your outcome.” Connect with Travis: LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/travischappell IG: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell/ Other: https://travischappell.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Sunstone Health CEO Joshua Resnikoff joins Chris Lustrino to explain how Sunstone uses AI on healthcare claims data to proactively identify children with developmental delay—starting with epilepsy and autism—and help families reach the right specialists and diagnostics faster.They break down what claims data is, why the healthcare system is reactive by default, and how Sunstone's approach can compress what often takes years into roughly weeks by flagging high-need cases, coordinating advanced diagnostics, and delivering actionable next steps. Joshua also shares Sunstone's go-to-market strategy (positioned as an employer-paid benefit), why the pricing model is designed to reduce “point-solution bloat,” and how expansion could move across employers, TPAs, reinsurers, and large insurers. 00:00 Needle-in-a-haystack intro03:13 What Sunstone does (AI + claims data)05:32 Flagging patients vs. diagnosing07:21 Employer benefit + privacy model15:54 GTM + sales cycle reality17:57 Outcome-based pricing model20:16 Unit economics ($10k per case)22:11 Expansion paths + other diseases26:23 Fundraise use of proceeds28:03 Investor closing

Why did we think this was an interesting episode?Paul & James are regularly involved in ecommerce redesign projects, either in an advisory capacity or helping drive the design thinking.This episode explores the reasons why brands decide to invest in a redesign:Brand refresh or a full rebrand.Brand elevation of the online UX e.g. premium positioning.Improved user journeys to fix legacy constraints.Outcome focused e.g. fix navigation and browse journeys.It then teases out the justifications for redesign projects, sharing views on how design can and should be measured objectively.James & Paul also dissect the intangible goal of many design projects: to elevate the brand positioning, to create a premium look & feel.Goals like this need clear definition and framing to ensure the design outputs work towards a clear vision and execution. They also need tangible measurements of success, even if they're not conversion focused.The key take-away is that design has to be measured, and the metrics you use need to be agreed upfront. If there are no hard & fast commercial success metrics like conversion and AOV, then take a sensible approach to measuring customer impact, for example customer satisfaction & NPS.Chapters:[00:30] Introduction to Redesign Metrics[03:40] Understanding Brand Elevation[06:10] Balancing Design and Ecommerce[09:00] Defining a Premium Experience[12:30] Measuring Redesign Success[15:25] The Role of User Testing[18:15] Navigating Redesign Challenges[21:10] The Importance of KPIs[22:46] Final Thoughts on Redesigns

Sales psychology and strategic selling are the real drivers of sales performance - not another sales process, CRM tweak, or enablement playbook. In this solo episode, we unpack why outcome-based selling and the uncomfortable conversations most reps avoid are what truly move B2B deals forward. In this episode of the B2B Sales Trends Podcast, Harry challenges a common leadership reflex: when performance drops, leaders adjust the sales strategy instead of addressing the human side of B2B selling. But selling is a psychological sport - and performance lives in those strategic conversations most teams hesitate to have.

In today's episode, we will study what it looks like to lead through uncertainty when you can't see clearly how to get to the other side of what you're navigating.

This week, I'm continuing our "Fall in Love with Short-Form Video" series, and I'm diving deep into something I know so many of you struggle with: how to create short-form video content when you're an expert who talks too much. If you're used to podcasting, long-form content, or just explaining things in detail, condensing everything into 60-90 seconds can feel impossible. Trust me, I get it. But in this episode, I'm sharing the exact mindset shifts, frameworks, and strategies that helped me finally crack the code on short-form video. What You'll Learn: The Mindset Shift You Need Why short-form isn't about teaching everything, it's about creating desire to know more The difference between long-form (building depth) and short-form (being clear and simple) Why repurposing podcast clips usually doesn't work (and what to do instead) The Core Rule: Every Video Needs One Clear Goal Every video should deliver one of these three things: A breakthrough They realize something they've been doing wrong A belief shift A new perspective that replaces an old one A quick win Something they can immediately try or feel progress with Two Questions to Filter Every Video: What do I want them to think differently after this video? What do I want them to do differently after this video? 3 High-Performing Video Structures: The Shift Style Address a common belief → Challenge it → New realization → New belief The Breakdown Style Problem → Concept → 3 points → Outcome (don't overteach!) The Results Path Desired result → Common mistake → Better approach → Action to take When You Have a Big Framework to Share: Don't try to teach the whole thing in one video Ask: What's the ONE part that changed the game for me or my clients? Sell the value of the framework, don't teach it all upfront Save objections, how-tos, and deeper dives for separate videos I hope this episode helps you rethink how you approach short-form video.

A striking model of surrender emerges in this episode: accepting both mercy and correction as meaningful, purposeful, and transformative. Spoken live from Śrīdhāma Māyāpur, this conversation unfolds around a simple Christian devotional line—"I do not know what tomorrow holds, but I know who holds tomorrow"—and follows it into much deeper bhakti territory. Rather than offering certainty or comfort, the discussion explores what it actually means to trust God when outcomes are unclear and control quietly slips away. Drawing from pilgrimage moments in Navadvīpa, immersive kīrtan, and a revealing section of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, the episode turns to Kāliya, the serpent whose suffering leads not to resentment but to humility and clarity. His prayer becomes a mirror for our own lives, reframing adversity not as punishment, but as a precise and personal form of guidance. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?
