#175 - When Rodney Carpentier first laced up his police patrol boots to tackle a Catskill mountain, he had no idea he was beginning a transformative six-year odyssey that would shape not only his physical resilience but his creative future. Sharing his remarkable journey from unprepared novice to accomplished hiker who conquered all 35 peaks of the challenging Catskills 3500, Rodney reveals how the mountains became his sanctuary during life's most difficult moments.The trail wasn't just physical for Rodney. Between summits, he navigated profound personal loss, career challenges in law enforcement, and relationship hurdles that tested his resolve. "It was kind of the only thing I looked forward to," he admits, describing how these weekend adventures with his wife provided essential connection and accomplishment during turbulent times. These mountains that once left him breathless and struggling to keep pace gradually became a place of mastery and ultimately, creative inspiration.What makes Rodney's story particularly compelling is how his mountain adventures eventually gave birth to a second chapter as a mystery novelist. Drawing from his intimate knowledge of the Catskills' rugged terrain and his experiences in law enforcement, he crafted "Our Lady of the Overlook," the first in a trilogy of mystery novels set among the same peaks he spent years exploring. The mountains themselves become almost a character in his writing—unpredictable, beautiful, and occasionally dangerous.Whether you're seeking outdoor adventure inspiration, creative motivation, or simply a reminder that our challenges often lead to unexpected gifts, Rodney's journey demonstrates how adventure shapes who we become. As he puts it, "Life should be an adventure... if you're not trying to do something new or different or better, that's what makes life worth doing."

What if I told you there was one metric that could truly move your business forward—and most business owners aren't even paying attention to it? That's what we're diving into in this episode of More than a Few Words. I had a conversation with jake Tlapek, aka the Wizard of Marketing, who's spent the last decade helping struggling brands become high-growth success stories using battle-tested SEO and creative problem-solving. Episode Recap: When most people think of marketing metrics, they zero in on traffic, leads, or social likes. But Jake makes the case for a bigger-picture indicator: Share of Brand Voice—a measure of how often your brand shows up compared to competitors. It's not a tidy little number you can find in a single report. Measuring it requires stitching together insights from a variety of sources. It's not a tidy little number you can find in a single report. Measuring it requires stitching together insights from a variety of sources. But if you're serious about building a visible, respected brand, this metric can't be ignored. We talked about why it matters more than ever in the era of AI search, and what you can start doing right now—even if you don't have access to fancy tools or a big team. Key Points: Share of Brand Voice is about visibility in your space: how often your brand is mentioned, cited, or seen versus your competitors. It's not easily measured in one place—you'll need to combine analytics, branded search volume, and SEO tools for a clearer picture. Tools like SparkToro and Search Atlas can help if you're ready to go deeper. Don't overlook your Google Search Console and branded keyword searches—they're a great place to start. AI Search is Changing the Game AI doesn't just answer one query. It generates dozens of variations before delivering results. To show up in AI overviews, your content should answer multiple versions of the same core question. Visibility in AI results depends on pattern recognition—the more your brand appears across the web, the more likely it is to be included in AI-generated answers. Actionable Takeaways for Women Business Owners: Start by tracking branded searches in Google Search Console. If no one is looking for you by name, it's time to build awareness. Answer variations of your most-asked questions across your blog, website, and social platforms. Repetition is your friend. Get featured elsewhere. Guest blogs, podcast interviews, and external mentions help create brand signals AI can detect. Create short-form video content. Every video gets transcribed and indexed—boosting both search and AI visibility. Don't just post—get credited. Whether you're guesting on a podcast or writing for another site, make sure your name and brand are clearly attached. Jake Tlapek Jake, often called the Wizard of Marketing has spent the last decade turning struggling brands into high-growth businesses using no-fluff strategy, battle-tested SEO, and a heavy dose of creative problem-solving. From WordPress to PPC, content to conversion, he break down the complex so business owners can actually win online.

The NFL passed on Shedeur Sanders — son of Deion “Prime Time” Sanders — through the first four rounds of its 2025 draft, despite the quarterback's two electric seasons in college with Heisman trophy winner Travis Hunter. It felt eerily like the way algorithms reject qualified people in the job market. Shedeur's notoriety and connections got him a shot . . . and his exhibition season debut with the Cleveland Browns proved doubters wrong. Here's what his story can teach you about surviving in a world where the first gatekeeper isn't human: Make sure you're connected.

Ordinary Guys Extraordinary Wealth: Real Estate Investing and Passive Income Tactics
In this week's REI Only episode of The FasterFreedom Show, Sam breaks down one of the most powerful — and misunderstood — funding tools in real estate: hard money lending. From how it works to where to find trustworthy lenders, we're pulling back the curtain on a strategy that can turn “I can't afford that deal” into “I just closed on it.”
Small Bay Industrial (a.k.a. Flex Space) wasn't on your radar—and for good reason.But what if the most overlooked asset class in commercial real estate turned out to be one of the most profitable? In this episode, Cody Payne, SVP at Colliers, breaks down why Small Bay Flex Industrial is quietly exploding—and why more active and passive investors are taking notice. Cody shares how he transitioned from leasing to owning, how syndication plays a role in the space, and why this niche might outperform retail and office over the next decade. Whether you're looking to diversify your portfolio or find a less management-intensive asset, this is an episode you don't want to miss.Key TakeawaysWhy Flex Industrial Is Heating UpThe asset class has evolved: from basic metal garages to glass-fronted multi-use spaces.Demand is surging as small businesses, gyms, e-commerce, and retail users flood in.Triple-net leases and low tenant improvement costs make this a capital-efficient play.How to Add Real Value with Small Bay AssetsSimple cosmetic upgrades (like storefront glass) can attract higher-paying tenants.Reconfiguring larger units into smaller ones can boost PSF rent.Strategic side yards and outdoor storage add ancillary income.Investor Returns: What to ExpectTypical stabilized deals offer 8–10% cash-on-cash returns with low capex.Value-add plays or development deals can push IRRs significantly higher.Cap rates range from 6–8%, depending on market and quality.Management Made SimpleTriple-net leases reduce headaches—tenants handle their own maintenance.Very few after-hours calls; most businesses operate during daytime hours.Easy to find third-party managers who understand this asset class.Syndication in Small Bay: A New FrontierCody's early deals involved rolling his broker fee into equity—low-risk entry point.Syndication works well, especially for stabilized assets or light value-add.Investors like the stability, tenant diversity, and ease of management.Navigating the Market: Deal Flow and FinancingGood deal flow in most metros if your buy box is realistic (e.g., 7–8% cap).Financing is accessible: 25-year terms, 65% LTV, and ~6.25% interest.Banks used to avoid this asset class—now they're chasing it.Connect with CodyWebsiteBook: Flex Space DominationLinkedInConnect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)Schedule a Free Strategy Session with Michael's Team of Advisors
The preseason is now less than 24 hours away from getting started and there's some upside to discuss following this week's joint practices with the Commanders.

Summer may be waning, but college prep for soon-to-be new college students is ramping up. Vicki and Elizabeth sat down to record a late summer pre-college episode to let parents know some of the things they shouldn't bother about at this late date and some of the things that should still get done. It's important to know the difference. We quickly realized that although there were a few “don't bother” items, the list of things to make sure you cover was significantly longer. This episode will help you sort out the things you can let go from the “must do” tasks. Hopefully, you'll find yourself with many items already checked off your list, but if not, now is the time to get busy. Thank you for listening!

In this episode of Leaders, a Network Marketing Podcast, host Keith Callahan sits down with Sarah Robbins for a masterclass in leadership, duplication, and building teams that multiply, not just grow. They talk about the overlooked skill that's quietly holding leaders back: development. Sarah shares how she built a billion-dollar sales organization from the ground up, without recruiting a single industry leader, and why attracting people is only half the equation. She opens up about rebuilding her business from scratch after her former company changed direction, and how that experience reshaped the way she trains, mentors, and empowers leaders today. Keith and Sarah dive deep into what it actually takes to create momentum, scale with simplicity, and lead from a place of purpose, not pressure. If you've ever wondered how to turn enrollments into duplicating leaders, or how to simplify your systems without sacrificing results, this episode will give you the framework, belief, and clarity to multiply what matters.

In this episode of MissPerceived, Professor Leah Ner tackles the fraught label of “women's work”—and what really happens when men step into these traditionally gendered roles. Leah pulls apart the stubborn myths about who should do what in our homes, communities, and institutions, drawing on her decades of research and candid conversations.You'll hear:• How the phrase “women's work” shapes our assumptions about care, trust, and responsibility—even when men are just as involved.• Why men who take on domestic, emotional, or supportive roles often face stigma, skepticism, or even suspicion.• The hidden harms of closing off these roles to men, including what's overlooked, undervalued, or outright ignored—sometimes with heartbreaking consequences.• What it really takes to untangle deeply held beliefs and build a culture where everyone's contributions are recognized, no matter their gender.Follow Leah Ruppanner at https://www.instagram.com/prof.leah/Follow the MissPerceived Podcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/missperceivedpodcast Hosted on Acast.

Scott Wu is the co-founder and CEO of Cognition, the company behind Devin, the world's first AI software engineer. On Friday last week they pulled off the acquisition of the year, acquiring Windsurf, following their licensing agreement with Google. Previously a world-class competitive programmer, he was a gold medalist at the International Olympiad in Informatics and a member of the U.S. Math and Physics Olympiad teams. Before Cognition, he was a founding engineer at Scale AI, helping shape the early AI infrastructure stack. AGENDA: 00:00 – Why are founders walking away instead of going down with the ship? 01:05 – How did Cognition pull off the $220M Windsurf deal in just 72 hours? 04:45 – What really happened behind closed doors the weekend Windsurf was acquired? 07:15 – Did Google overlook a goldmine in the Windsurf team and IP? 09:00 – Who are the 100 people that secretly shape the future of AI? 12:30 – Can application startups ever gain leverage over foundation model giants like Anthropic? 14:15 – Is coding about to be replaced by simply describing what you want? 17:30 – 50% of new code is AI-written. Where does that go next? 20:45 – “We've gone from 0 to $80M ARR in 6 months. Quietly.” 25:00 – Are IDEs and agents just the training wheels for the real future of software engineering? 28:20 – If you could only back one—OpenAI or Anthropic—who's the better bet? 30:00 – Why has Cognition kept its insane growth a secret… until now?

Episode Summary:In this episode of It's Just Different, Ashley Roberts sits down with Jake Stevens, Associate Head Coach at Texas Woman's University, to break down why athletes and parents shouldn't overlook D2 basketball.

Many athletes thrive in D2 environments due to better academic-athletic balance and focused development.- Live period isn't everything. Athletes can still stand out with smart communication, film, and targeted outreach.- Transparency is key. Be honest with coaches about your goals, especially around transferring or chasing D1.- JUCO vs. D2 is a strategic decision. Know when each makes sense based on where your athlete is right now.- Character counts. Coaches value how athletes handle adversity, communicate, and represent themselves.

Ian Altman discusses the common oversights in channel sales teams, emphasizing that top performers excel in sales skills rather than product knowledge. He suggests that product launches should focus on market demand, problem-solving, and customer needs rather than just features.

He also stresses the importance of ongoing education and connectivity through platforms like Zoom or Google Meet to reinforce learning and maintain team engagement.Biggest MistakesSpending too much time talking about features and benefits of new productsFocusing solely on product knowledge instead of sales skillsNot explaining the demand in the marketplace that prompted the creation of new productsWhat can the company do to reduce friction and make it easier to do business with compared to other brands?Best PracticesFocus on solving client problems rather than extensive product knowledgeHave product managers explain why the product was introduced and what problem it solvesDiscuss how new products make customers' lives better and reduce risksSolicit information from attendees about where deals are getting stuckCreate role-play scenarios to model great conversations and outreach techniquesEnsure attendees leave with actionable plans and set up mechanisms for ongoing engagement
