This week on Own It we're talking to Sommer Poquette from Keep It Real Social. She was a teacher before the blogging revolution of the early 2000s. She became a mom blogger, but quickly became effective at bridging the gap between brands and what we now call influencers. After 10 years of a successful venture there, she started Keep It Real Social to help brands optimize their digital and social media presence.  As if that wasn't enough, she also started her own travel agency, so we get twice the experience and insights today.  Sommer was so much fun to talk to and learn from. You're going to love this episode.

This week on Own It we're talking to Ari Krzyzek from Chykalophia. Her firm is a web conversion focused firm. They bring brand ideas to life to transform their websites for growth. Speaking of growth, the agency was born from Ari's simple website design consulting work she began in 2009. So she has seen ownership from that seed of consulting int a large and successful agency. Ari is originally from Bali, but now based in Chicago. We talked about that journey, how she started and built her agency, and her interesting perspective on closing the gender gap in agency ownership. We so admire Ari's drive and determination to own it. You will learn so much from her.

This past weekend, I had the distinct displeasure of participating in an event called “The Muddy Dash,” put on by the company EventLab. I used to put on bike race events, and I have participated in I don't know how many athletic events. Without a doubt, this was by far the absolute worst experience in almost every way from an event planning standpoint. Way too many participants for the venue, resulting in standstill traffic on single lane roads for over an hour. Not enough staff to process the participants. An unimaginative course with few built obstacles. The “EPIC PARTY” at the end was just a guy in a tent playing music. The whole affair was pretty chaotic and sad, well under what was marketed on the website.  This wasn't a one-off situation either. If you go online and look at reviews for Muddy Dash, you'll find many of the same comments. Regardless of the location around the US, it seems that the experience is just as bad. It takes real commitment to continuously go that far below expectations and seemingly do nothing to fix it.  On the other hand, it was a great example of what happens when you get THE UN-WOW wrong. Another positive from the day was the way in which the participants created a wonderful vibe despite the other short-comings. It was especially great how you had people of different body types, ages, athletic abilities, costumes, all creating this kind of “community of the moment”, laughing and joking with one another. We were all there to have fun through physical activity. There was no timer and no one seemed to care about their speed. We just wanted to be active in a different kind of way than just going to the gym or going for a run. It is amazing how people coming together to exercise can even overcome the greatest attempts to sabotage an experience. My guest today knows a lot about exercise and physical fitness. Justin Roethlingshoefer grew up in Canada playing hockey (as one does). His focus on fitness then extended to his college major in Exercise Science and a masters in Exercise Physiology. From there, he worked with teams such as Washington Capitols, Anaheim Ducks, and the National Hockey League as a performance coach. Today, he is the Director of Performance for The Hockey Summit and the Founder of “Own It,” a health system for high performing leaders. He also is the author and founder of Holy Health, which is his effort to bridge “Scripture and science, helping individuals, pastors, and churches restore health of body, mind, and spirit.” And the book Holy Health is coming on August 11th.  We talk about his early interest in physical fitness and transformation, leading to his current focus today.  Justin talks about the need to take a more holistic approach to health that incorporates the spiritual with the physical. While there is a growing interest in health and wellness, these messages leave out an emphasis on optimizing the body in order to live one's calling. Justin also talks about the importance of identity transformation, breaking generational patterns of alcoholism, abuse, poverty, and privilege to embrace the potential of a different life. While that might start with the body, it also has to include the spirit as well.  We also talk about the Canadian band The Tragically Hip, and the importance of coming together whether that be to watch a band on its final tour, to embrace exercise, or to live a spiritually-inspired life.  Justin Roethlingshoefer on LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/justin-roethlingshoefer/ Own It Coaching: https://ownitcoaching.com/   “Holy Health” Book: https://holyhealthbook.com/   Justin Roethlingshoefer Books: https://justinroethlingshoefer.com/books/

Send us Fan MailOne Small Act of Kindness Can Change Everything: A Conversation with Karen OlsonWhat if one small act of kindness could change the course of your life—and ultimately impact millions of others?On this episode of the Today is the Day Changemakers Podcast, host Jodi Hope Grinwald sits down with Karen Olson, founder and CEO emeritus of Family Promise, for an inspiring conversation about kindness, compassion, purpose, and the extraordinary impact one person can create.Karen's desire to help others began early in life. After losing her mother as a child, she experienced a depth of hurt that made her want to protect others from feeling the same kind of pain. Although she once dreamed of becoming a nurse, her life took her in a different direction, and she built a successful career as a marketing executive at Warner-Lambert.Then, one encounter outside Grand Central Station changed everything. On her way to a business meeting, Karen stopped to help an unhoused woman named Millie. She offered her a sandwich and orange juice—and, even more importantly, took the time to sit with her, listen, and learn her story.That single decision opened Karen's eyes and heart in a new way. It led her to begin volunteering, learn more about family homelessness, and bring communities together to create meaningful solutions.Karen eventually founded what would become Family Promise, a national nonprofit dedicated to helping families experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity achieve lasting independence. Through the power of compassion, community, and human connection, she rallied more than one million volunteers and helped build a movement that has served more than one million children and adults.In this deeply personal conversation, Karen opens up about childhood loss, depression, unexpected roadblocks, her transition from corporate leadership to nonprofit service, and the life-altering health crisis she later faced. She also shares how volunteerism transformed her own life and why compassion has the power to heal both the person receiving kindness and the person offering it.Karen's journey reminds us that purpose does not always arrive through one grand plan. Sometimes, it begins by noticing the person in front of us, listening to our hearts, and choosing to take one small step.Karen's memoir, Meant for More: Following Your Heart and Finding Your Purpose, chronicles her journey from personal tragedy to a life of compassion, service, and national impact. The book is available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Bookshop.org.Learn more about Karen at KarenOlsonAuthor.com and about Family Promise at FamilyPromise.org.About the HostJodi Hope Grinwald is a Leadership & Connection Strategist, author, collaborative publishing strategist, and host of the Today is the Day Changemakers Podcast.

This week on Own It we're talking to Cass Cruz and Karen Goodman from Nova Consulting. Their firm focuses on branding but specializes in helping founders and business leaders turn what they stand for into meaning and growth for their companies. Karen spent time at Bose on the brand side and MullenLowe and Havas, among others, on the agency side before joining forces with Cass.  Cass also spent time at Bose on the brand side as well as the Harvard School of Education along the way. The seed of Nova came from her life and leadership coaching business she started after leaving Bose.  Both have such fantastic backgrounds and journeys. I loved hearing of their meeting and joining forces, and of course, their perspective on closing the gender gap in agency ownership.  This was such a fun chat. You'll enjoy it as much as we did.

In this episode, host John Gallagher sits down with Ed Hinman—Naval Academy grad, former Division I football player, Marine Corps veteran, author, and coach. Ed shares why so many accomplished leaders still feel hollow inside and introduces a practical framework from his book, The Barbarian in You, to help rebuild health, leadership, and meaning through three core pillars: Vigor, Wonder, and Fellowship. Key Takeaways & Discussion HighlightsTaking Ownership Under Pressure: Ed reflects on his late teens at the Naval Academy Prep School, where academic failure forced him to stop drifting and take total agency over his life.The “Barbarian” Within: Why returning to “nature's rules” is essential for modern humans—and how sedentary routines, screens, and isolation quietly drain our vigor, wonder, and fellowship.Pain as a Catalyst for Clarity: How personal struggle unlocks self-awareness and leads to the life-changing question: “What do I really want?”Escaping “Joy Envy” and the “Should Heads”: Overcoming the pressure of other people's expectations and learning to lead from your own values rather than outside obligations.Vigor & Community in Action: Using unexpected examples of relentless energy (like David Lee Roth) and looking at Ed's “Point View Crew” fire pit gatherings as a blueprint for men to rebuild intentional community.Leading from the Overflow: A practical reminder for leaders to fill their own cup first so they can serve others from the overflow rather than running on empty.

This week on Own It we're talking to Abby Lovett from CPT Visibility Advisors. I've been looking forward to this episode for a while because Abby has expertise in the sometimes intimidating world of A.I. She helps companies with their visibility in the world of artificial intelligence.  You may want to get out your journals and take notes on this episode. We talked about her firm, the world of AI, her journey here which includes writing a book, which is somewhat ironically, about being human at work. It's called “Super Human: 8 Small Ways To Be Super at What You Do … and Human While You Do it.” This was an amazing conversation. And one not generated by a computer.

"She has good genetics." "She doesn't have kids." "She's always been that way." We've all said it ~ and it's a story, not a fact. In this episode, Sarah and Tanna dig into the excuses we reach for when someone else's results look effortless, and why those excuses feel so good in the moment while quietly keeping us stuck. The Self-Serving BiasJudging someone else's "easy" is more comfortable than sitting with your own guilt. Sarah and Tanna break down why our brains default to comparison, and how it protects our self-esteem while giving us permission to not put in the work. The Iceberg EffectSocial media shows the wheelie, not the hundred falls before it. Tanna shares a story about a dirt bike influencer whose reels make hard things look effortless ~ and what her captions reveal about the practice nobody sees. Identity Over GoalsGrounded in self-determination theory, Sarah explains why "I am someone who prioritizes her health" builds consistency in a way that "I want to lose 20 pounds" never will. Dedication beats motivation, and identity beats intention. Curiosity Over ComparisonInstead of "it's easy for her," Sarah and Tanna offer a swap: "What can I learn from her?" It's a small shift that turns envy into inspiration ~ and inspiration into action. Catch It, Own It, Replace ItThe episode closes with a practical three-step approach: catch yourself in the story, take responsibility instead of blaming someone else, and take one small action toward who you want to be ~ realistic minimums included.

Molly stood in the back of a Maine town hall, watching an oyster farmer from Sullivan hold a room with no notes, and texted her kids that they might be looking at the state's next senator. On Monday morning, her algorithm fed her story after story about the same man — now a loser, a liar, a warning. This episode lives in the space between those two feeds, because as Molly puts it in the first fifteen seconds: a crisis begins before the headlines. By the time the video goes viral, the conditions were already in place.The headline version is everywhere. Politico published Jenny Racicot's account days before the Maine primary, and within 24 to 48 hours the Maine Democratic Party, the DSCC, Chuck Schumer, and Kirsten Gillibrand had pulled the floor out, with a deadline to withdraw by 5 p.m. on July 13. Everyone is covering the allegation. Molly is covering the response — the "own it, explain it, promise it" playbook that carried Graham Platner through a Nazi tattoo and a Reddit dating-app wave, and the exact moment he traded it for the one move that never survives contact: deny, attack, and blame the press.Two things can be true at once — five things can be true at once. Molly believes Jenny Racicot, and she refuses to throw out the lesson of a candidate who filled rooms by speaking to people's pain. Accountability works because it is self-initiated; it cannot work cornered, and it cannot work twice. And underneath all of it sits the vetting nobody ran — the same three-day shortcut that gave us George Santos, Herschel Walker, and Matt Gaetz.Chapters:0:00 — A Crisis Begins Before the Headlines0:27 — The Algorithm-Packaged Candidate2:21 — The Tattoo, the Reddit Wave, and the Accountability Candidate3:25 — The Politico Story: Jenny Racicot's Account5:47 — Bottom Line Up Front: Why Molly Believes Her7:39 — Primary O'Clock: Operatives and the Establishment9:36 — "It Was Electric": Molly in the Room11:26 — Own It, Explain It, Promise It: Why It Worked the First Time13:39 — The Marine Who Spoke to Pain16:56 — The Vetting Nobody Ran18:18 — 24 to 48 Hours: The Institutional Collapse and a July 13 Deadline20:06 — Amy Gertner's Video and the Confidence That Leaked22:52 — The Flag: Blaming the Press Instead of the Story26:05 — "Troubling, Serious and False": The Denial That Called Her a Liar29:42 — The Al Franken Mistake32:01 — Three-Day Vetting: Santos, Walker, Gaetz34:37 — Where Do You Allow the Three-Day Vetting?36:07 — "Anyone Who Works for a Living": The Line Worth Keeping

Danielle Strickland joins Justin Roethlingshoefer on The OWN IT Show for a Holy Health conversation on embodied faith, the relationship between Christian faith and physical health, and why so many believers have been taught to silence, punish, or disconnect from their bodies—instead of seeing them as a good gift designed to carry their calling.In a world that turns discipline, intensity, and physical performance into the goal, Danielle shares the moment she realized she had never intentionally loved her body. What began as a simple breath prayer exposed a relationship built on shame, control, and pushing through pain—and invited her into a completely different way of living.This episode reframes the true metric of Christian health: it's not appearance, intensity, or perfect discipline—it's stewardship + connection ✝️… learning to care for your body without worshiping it and integrate your physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual health

Most men have been handed two lies: that you're the problem — toxic, broken, too much — or that you're fine just for showing up. Neither is true. In this episode, Mike Stone breaks down what God actually calls men to: not dominance, not passivity, but presence. Using Proverbs 24:16, the lives of King David and Peter, we unpack why God doesn't disqualify men for falling — only for staying down. If you've ever told yourself it's too late for your marriage, your kids, or your faith, this is your wake-up call.What you'll learn in this episode:• Why Proverbs 24:16 redefines what a "righteous man" actually is• How David and Peter prove failure was never disqualifying• The real difference between a man who's checked out and a man who's present• A practical charge: pray, lead through sacrifice, own your failures out loud, and show upChapters:0:00 – This Message Is for the Real You0:26 – The Lie Men Were Sold0:56 – God's Actual Design for Men1:23 – Why We Checked Out (and Who Pays for It)1:54 – Proverbs 24:16: Falling Isn't Failing2:30 – David & Peter: Disqualified for Staying Down, Not Falling2:58 – It's Not Too Late3:23 – The Charge: Pray, Lead, Own It, Show Up4:22 – Rise. Lead. Love. Repeat.Common questions this video answers:- What does Proverbs 24:16 mean? It means a righteous man isn't someone who never falls — he's someone who keeps rising. The verse measures faithfulness by perseverance, not a perfect record.- What makes someone "a man after God's own heart"? Scripture's clearest example is King David — an adulterer and murderer God still called by that name, not because his sin didn't matter, but because he kept returning to God after he fell.- Did Peter's denial of Jesus disqualify him? No — Jesus called Peter "the rock" after Peter denied him three times. God's calling on a man isn't revoked by his failure; it's revoked by refusing to get back up.- What does it practically look like to lead as a Christian man?Praying like it matters, leading through sacrifice instead of demands, owning failures out loud to your family, and simply showing up — physically, emotionally, and spiritually.If this hit you right where you are, subscribe to Truth Behind the Mike for more straight-talk, Scripture-rooted teaching for men who are done with the performance and ready for the real thing.#ManAfterGodsHeart #ChristianMen #GodlyMan #BiblicalManhood #KingDavid #ChristianMotivation #MensMinistry #TruthBehindTheMikeSend us Fan MailSupport the showWatch these podcasts on YouTube!Follow Us!YouTube: @behindthemikepodcastInstagram: @behindthemikepodcastTikTok:  @behind_the_mike_podcastFacebook:  @behindthemikepodcast

Five scientists were escorted out of a diabetes conference by police for handing out a scientific paper — published in the host's own journal. By the time the American Diabetes Association finished explaining itself, its president and president-elect had resigned, and the editorial those five hoped 200 people might read had 76,000 views.Everyone is covering the removal. Molly is covering the two statements that came after it — the apology that blamed the people it was apologizing to, the peace-offering email that arrived days after an arrest threat, and the moment the ADA's response became a bigger story than the thing it was responding to.Chapters:0:00 — The PR Breakdown Live: New Format, One Deep-Dive Crisis1:43 — Why the American Diabetes Association Story Is Personal: Type 1 Diabetes and a Donor's Stake3:03 — The One-Sentence Version: ADA Removes Five of Its Own Scientists6:07 — ADA Scientific Sessions in New Orleans and the NIH Keynote Spark8:56 — Keynote Canceled for a Trump Meeting: Members Mobilize12:06 — Friday June 5: The Diabetes Care Editorial Handout12:57 — Police Remove the New Orleans Five: Why Optics Always Win14:25 — The Scott Pelley CBS Parallel: Making It About Policy and Procedure19:31 — The ADA's First Statement: Policy Defense and a Blaming Apology29:18 — Own It, Explain It, Promise It: The Indestructible PR Framework31:07 — The Badge Offer Backfires: An Olive Branch on Fire36:14 — Running the Crisis Playbook Backwards41:33 — Two Crisis Traps: Protecting the Institution and Playing the Victim43:45 — The Media Data: 24 to 86 Articles and 60% Negative Sentiment46:27 — The Resignations: ADA President and President-Elect Step Down50:41 — How the ADA Recovers: The Courageous Leadership Playbook

On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, Jon sits down with Justin Roethlingshoefer, performance coach, and author of Holy Health, for a deeply inspiring conversation about the intersection of faith, science, and holistic well-being. Justin Roethlingshoefer shares his own journey from witnessing burnout and health struggles among leaders, to stepping away in search of true wholeness, and ultimately returning with a renewed vision that integrates faith, science, and self-stewardship. Together, they explore the meaning of "holy health"—living set apart by honoring your body, mind, and spirit as a unified temple, and creating rhythms and environments that foster lasting health. This episode delves into powerful themes: reclaiming health not through striving for perfection or isolated habits, but by embracing identity, stewardship, and rhythms rooted in both Scripture and science. Justin Roethlingshoefer speaks candidly about breaking free from the extremes of obsession and neglect, finding oneness and capacity to live out your calling, and why making small daily choices—around movement, nourishment, rest, and community—can transform every area of life. About Justin: Justin Roethlingshoefer is a human performance expert, data-driven health strategist, and longevity practitioner with over two decades of experience optimizing health and performance. His mission is simple yet profound: to empower, educate, and equip leaders to take ownership of their health so they can fully live out their God-given mission. As a former health and performance expert in the NCAA and NHL, Justin used biometric data and real-time analytics to enhance recovery, endurance, and longevity. But his own wake-up call came when he was told he wouldn't live past 35. Forced to reprioritize his own health, he embarked on a personal healing journey using the same methods he was using for his athletes—one that led to a powerful realization: the health crisis wasn't just an athlete issue; it was a human issue. The real problem? Healthcare was reactive, not proactive. The system focused on treating symptoms rather than asking the right question: "Why is this happening?" Determined to bring wisdom out of the dark and into the light, Justin made it his mission to spread a message of hope and healing that unlocked the truth about health and longevity—not just for the elite, but for everyone. This journey led him to create OWN IT, an elite health coaching ecosystem designed for leaders who refuse to accept mediocrity in any aspect of life. Through personalized data, a team of specialized experts, and a science-backed system, OWN IT has helped thousands heal and optimize their mind, body, and spirit—unlocking the unstoppable energy and healing they were built for. A sought-after speaker, consultant, USA Today bestselling author, and podcast host of the OWN IT show, Justin doesn't just teach high performers how to improve their health—he gives them the blueprint to win. His work is shifting the conversation from reactive healthcare to proactive health ownership, proving that longevity isn't just about adding years to your life, but adding life to your years. But beyond the data, science, and accolades, Justin is a husband, a man of faith, and a firm believer in this truth: Healing is coming to you. Thriving is waiting for you. But it requires you to live differently   Here's a few additional resources for you… Do you feel called to share your story with the world? Check out Gordon Publishing  Follow me on Instagram: @JonGordon11 Every week, I send out a free Positive Tip newsletter via email.

We're bringing the HEAT this week as it's our very first LIVE in-person, podcast recording inside IMPACT-X Performance… and trust me, this conversation is going to hit your heart, challenge your mindset, and ignite your spirit. My guest is my good friend Justin Roethlingshoefer, a former NHL strength & conditioning coach turned founder of the powerful new "Holy Health" movement. Justin shares a ton of his insight on "Holy Health" along with a lot of his experiences with his client, Grammy-winning worship artist Brandon Lake, as they are doing a ton together to change many lives. What unfolds in this episode is nothing short of transformational. We dive deep into faith, healing, identity, purpose, obedience, leadership, burnout, and what it really means to steward your mind, body, soul, and calling God's way. Justin opens up like never before about the darkest season of his life after losing his NHL career, the moment God radically shifted his perspective while sitting alone in a kayak during COVID, and how that "yes" to obedience ultimately led him to Brandon Lake and a sold-out arena tour impacting hundreds of thousands of lives. If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, burned out, anxious, uncertain about your next step, or hungry for more purpose and peace in your life… this episode is for YOU. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why "the only thing that follows obedience is blessing" How Justin went from getting fired from the NHL to building the Holy Health movement The life-changing kayak moment that birthed the vision for Own It Why your identity cannot be tied to your performance What "Health Is Worship" truly means The exact rhythms and routines Brandon Lake used during his 50-show arena tour How anxiety, burnout, and striving steal your calling Why rest is NOT weakness — it's obedience The powerful lesson: "Don't force what you want now for what you actually want most" How Holy Health is helping thousands of people heal mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually Why leadership starts with culture and consistency The importance of surrendering EVERY area of your life to God — including your health How slowing down allows you to finally hear God speak What it means to create "health havens" in your environment and daily life The mindset shift that can radically change the way you lead, live, and love This conversation reminded me that impact doesn't come from having it all figured out… it comes from showing up, being obedient, serving people with all your heart, and trusting God with the outcome. Justin's story is proof that your greatest setback can become the setup for your greatest calling if you're willing to surrender, stay faithful, and keep going.

Every client you work with moves through a journey. The situations are always different, but the stages are remarkably consistent. I've watched them unfold across hundreds of clients over nearly two decades, and at some point I started giving them language.In this episode, I walk through the four stages I see every client move through when they start working on their money: See Clearly, Stand Firm, Own It, and Build Forward. I talk about what the client is experiencing at each stage, what they actually need from you (which is often different from what you want to give them), and the coaching mistakes that happen when you're doing the right work at the wrong time.This episode connects to the SpendFirst™ methodology, but the pattern applies regardless of what system you use. Once you see it, you'll coach differently.Resources mentioned: Episode 27: The four Stages FrameworkFCA and Specialty Toolkits: closing to new enrollment May 18, 2026

 Your Digital Twin Is Already Alive. You Don't Own It. Before you went to sleep last night, you built your digital twin. Every app tap, GPS ping, and scroll added another brick. The problem: you don't own it, can't correct it, and it will outlive you. Companies like Acxiom — now rebranded LiveRamp after the original name became too radioactive in privacy circles — hold up to 10,000 data points per person. Not through hacking. Through identity graphs that silently stitch your grocery loyalty card to your 2 a.m. weather searches without your knowledge or consent. Clearview AI scraped 30 billion photos from the open internet. Their CEO admitted it on camera without flinching. European regulators levied massive fines and demanded deletion. It didn't work — because when your face is ingested into a neural network, it stops being a file. It becomes math. Baked into the weights. You cannot unbake a cake and pull out a single egg. Microsoft's voice-cloning system needs three seconds of audio to replicate you saying anything, in any emotional register. Three seconds. A voicemail to a plumber. A clip from a Zoom call. The system maps the acoustic environment — so a clone recorded in a parking garage sounds like it's calling from a parking garage. Your brain's threat-response circuitry evolved over millions of years to recognize a loved one in distress. It has no defense against a synthetic replica of that signal. A 2018 study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences — researchers from Stony Brook and Penn — detected clinical depression three months before a physician made the diagnosis. The input wasn't medical records. It was Facebook posts. The algorithm tracked a measurable rise in first-person pronouns: I, me, my. Psychological research shows that as depression develops, focus turns involuntarily inward long before the person consciously recognizes it. Sadness leaks into syntax. The algorithm reads the leak. Now place that capability in the hands of a corporate HR department or a life insurance underwriter. They don't need a diagnosis. They see the semantic pattern, the timestamp of your 3 a.m. scrolling, and they attach a derived attribute to your profile: high risk, severe depression. Your resume gets filtered out. You never know why. You have no one to appeal to. Under current U.S. federal law, you have almost no right to see, correct, or delete what data brokers hold. The inferences an algorithm draws about your mental health, financial risk, and behavioral trajectory are classified as the corporation's intellectual property. Not yours. Theirs. The conclusions a machine drew about your mind belong to the company that owns the server. Clicking "do not sell my personal information" stops one broker from selling your data tomorrow. It does nothing for the broker who bought your identity graph two years ago and has no legal obligation to honor your request. When you die, the twin doesn't. The face print stays in the neural network. The voice clone lives on a server farm indefinitely. A growing grief-tech industry is already selling your family an AI avatar of you — managed, monetized, and edited by a corporation that never knew you, presenting whatever version of you best serves their subscription model. The question worth sitting with: if your digital twin is legally someone else's property and it outlives you long enough to interact with your grandchildren — at what point does the algorithm decide how your own family remembers you?  This post is based on a recorded discussion exploring the architecture of persistent digital identity, data broker operations, and the legal framework governing algorithmic inference in the United States.robotcrimeblog.com
