In this episode, Dan Uyemura of PushPress returns to discuss the future of fitness technology with host Eric Malzone. They dive into PushPress's evolution into an AI-powered gym management platform, exploring how artificial intelligence is reshaping operations for independent, community-focused gyms. Dan shares real-world examples of AI in action—from automated member management and smart reporting to AI coaching assistants that personalize member experiences. The conversation also tackles the bigger picture: why AI adoption is essential for survival in today's fast-moving tech landscape, how gyms can leverage AI as a team member rather than a job replacer, and why the fitness industry remains uniquely human and resilient in the face of automation. Whether you're a gym owner, coach, or tech enthusiast, this episode offers a practical and forward-looking view of how AI can empower small businesses to thrive.

#706 In part two of our masterclass with Dave Menz, the Laundromat Millionaire, we shift from customer experience to the operational engine that drives a truly scalable business. Dave reveals how documented systems, strong SOPs, and empowered employees are the foundation of long-term success — not just in laundromats, but in any service-based business. From unclogging drains before they flood your store to building a business that thrives while you're on vacation, this episode is packed with tactical wisdom and real-world examples. We also explore innovative revenue streams, the truth about passive income, and how digital marketing is reshaping this traditionally overlooked industry. If you're serious about building a business that runs without you, class is in session again with Dave Menz! (Original Air Date - 4/29/25) What we discuss with Dave: + Systems create true scalability + SOPs prevent costly emergencies + Maintenance must be proactive + Full-service laundromats win loyalty + Attended stores attract premium clients + Marketing works if product stands out + Revenue varies by market density + Partnerships can boost utilization + Always improve processes and systems + Humility and curiosity drive growth Thank you, Dave!

My guest on the show today is Jason Kirsch, Portfolio Manager at Rosen Partnership and co-architect of the firm's Active Value Strategy — a concentrated, long-only, private-owner-style approach to investing in micro-cap companies across Canada, the U.S., and Europe. In this episode, Jason walks us through Rosen Partnership's philosophy of thinking like private owners in the public markets: buying capital-light, high-ROIC compounders at meaningful discounts to intrinsic value; partnering with aligned management teams; and using “constructivism” — a collaborative, non-activist engagement style — to help unlock long-term value. We dig deep into how Jason builds a true knowledge edge: talking not just to management, but to former executives, board members, competitors, suppliers — anyone who can broaden the mosaic and create an informational gap most investors simply aren't willing to develop. Jason also shares lessons learned from catalysts that didn't play out, how misaligned incentives can turn a bargain into a value trap, and why understanding your own psychology is just as important as understanding any business. For more information about Rosen Partnership, please visit: https://www.rosenpartnership.com/ We just announced our full slate of investor conferences for 2026, all in partnership with MicroCapClub. Our next major event is Planet MicroCap: LAS VEGAS, happening June 16–18, 2026, at the Bellagio. Registration is now open for that.

This week, I talk with Jeff Sheldon, designer and founder of Ugmonk. Jeff's story is about more than building a successful brand—it's about choosing craft over scale and staying true to what you love. We talk about why he turned down Shark Tank at the peak of a viral Kickstarter, how his childhood love of drawing grew into a career in design, and what he's learned about perfectionism, entrepreneurship, and the emotional cost of mastery. We also explore the quieter parts of his journey: the role his marriage has played, his philosophy of work and life, and how he continues to create intentionally 16 years in.

We all know by now that plants grown in living, thriving, life-filled soil, give us living, thriving, life-filled food... but the steps to getting there in the face of a multinational industry devoted to toxic, nutritionally empty, addictive - and highly profitable - ultra-processed 'food-like substances' are harder to see.  This week's guest, Daphne du Cros, spends her life deep in the mycelial networks of food and farming systems, bringing both into genuinely regenerative balance. Daphne is a food policy researcher, educator, and farmer. She holds a PhD in Food Policy at the Centre for Food Policy at City St. George's University of London, and a Master's in Environmental Science and Management from Toronto Metropolitan University in Canada. She is Director and Coordinator at Shropshire Good Food Partnership; Director at Light Foot Enterprises; Project Lead at Food Forward BC (where BC stands for Bishop's Castle, not British Columbia or any of the other potential options) -   and she's co-owner of Little Woodbatch CIC, a farm just outside BC that hosts the Bishop's Castle Community Seed Bank. She is the author of the town's Community Food Resilience Strategy - the only such policy in Shropshire.Daphne and I are relatively near neighbours, we have swapped seeds - her more than me - and share ideas about systems thinking and how we might evolve our world. She's deeply involved at every level from actual growing up to governmental meetings trying to get those in power to find some wisdom when it comes to food resilience, food security and all the other things we say as we try to get them to move away from the corruption innate in our system towards something that actually works in service to life.

In this episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, Dr. Fiona Lovely engages in a fascinating conversation with Paul Austin, a leading voice in the responsible use of psychedelics for personal and professional growth.  This discussion moves far beyond the stereotypes to explore how these powerful tools can serve as catalysts for profound change, especially for women navigating the complexities of midlife. Dr. Lovely and Paul delve into the foundational concept of microdosing, explaining what it is and how a structured protocol can gently enhance neuroplasticity, improve mood, and increase energy without any intoxicating effects.  Paul clarifies the distinct characteristics of different psychedelics, like psilocybin and LSD, and offers practical, sage advice on how to begin this journey safely and intentionally. The conversation also touches on the critical importance of "set and setting," the essential role of skilled facilitation, and how these substances can help to soften the rigid patterns of thinking that often hold us back.  If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or curious about alternative paths to mental and emotional wellness, this episode offers a fresh, educational, and hopeful perspective on a topic that is rapidly evolving in our modern world.

What happens when tequila meets soccer?

From Halifax to the four Maritime provinces, Stil James founders share how timeless design, regional sensibilities, and entrepreneurial grit shape their work and new cabinetry brand, Loran. There's a kind of quiet confidence in the design work coming out of Canada's Maritime provinces—projects that don't chase trends but instead reflect the rhythm of life shaped by weather, culture, and community. In this episode of Convo By Design, I'm talking with the founders of Stil James, a Halifax-based design studio that embodies this spirit of regional purpose. Their approach blends design restraint with deep practicality, and their new cabinetry brand, Loran, takes that philosophy even further. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home! TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep In this episode, we explore how two designers are navigating generational shifts in lifestyle, climate challenges, and a conservative market while building a business rooted in curiosity, learning, and partnership. From kitchens and mudrooms to cabinetry and color palettes, they reveal what it means to design for both function and future in Atlantic Canada. We talked about how the pandemic reshaped design thinking in the Maritimes—how open spaces replaced formal dining rooms, and how designers are reimagining older homes to suit how families actually live. The team at Stil James described the region's unique relationship with design: working “ten to fifteen years behind the trends” not as a limitation, but as an advantage that allows for timelessness and reflection. They draw more inspiration from Europe than North America, taking cues from craftsmanship, heritage, and texture rather than fleeting style cycles. Our conversation moved into climate resiliency—a constant design driver in Atlantic Canada, where homes must withstand everything from coastal winds to heavy snowfall. Mudrooms become essential transitional spaces, designed for the reality of shifting weather and active family life. Clients are increasingly focused on systems, materials, and sustainable practices that ensure their homes can adapt with the climate. We also discussed how lifelong learning has become central to the Stil James ethos. They encourage their team to attend design shows, seek global perspectives through digital tools, and value soft skills—resilience, empathy, and curiosity—just as highly as formal training. Then came Loran, their new cabinetry venture, born out of a clear market need for design-forward millwork in Halifax. Partnering with an Ontario-based manufacturer allows them to maintain quality and scale while keeping exclusivity within the Maritimes. Loren's mission extends beyond their own design projects, serving other designers and homeowners seeking elevated cabinetry built with longevity in mind. Show Topics Shifts in design philosophy post-2020 Retrofitting Maritime homes for modern living Working “behind the trends” as an advantage Designing for climate resiliency and functional living Building a culture of curiosity and continuous learning Launching Loren: a cabinetry company for the Maritimes Rejecting color trend cycles for timeless design Entrepreneurship, partnership, and the business of expansion The dynamics of collaboration and shared creative leadership We closed with a conversation about color and timelessness—how they resist seasonal trend reports and instead design for relevance over the next decade or more. They balance enduring finishes with accents that allow for evolution and personal expression. Entrepreneurship runs deep in their story, both having grown up in business-minded families. Their partnership was forged during the pandemic, when shared values and complementary strengths—operations and development—created a foundation of trust that continues to shape ...

What happens when organizations can't dream?Not because they lack vision. But because they're too busy scrambling to make payroll, chasing emergency grants, firefighting the latest crisis. Scarcity doesn't just drain bank accounts — it steals the capacity to imagine what's possible.In this episode, I sit down with Jamye Wooten, founder of CLLCTIVLY in Baltimore, to explore what he calls "reactivism" and how the social impact sector got trapped in a cycle of moving from crisis to crisis, hashtag to hashtag, never building the institutions we actually need.After years on the front lines in Ferguson and Baltimore, Jamye stepped back to create what he calls an "imagination incubator" — and he's putting real resources behind it. We dig into what it actually takes to give leaders the space they need to dream, the hidden costs of the grind we celebrate, and why capital (not training) is what builds capacity.In our conversation, we explore:Why scarcity steals imagination — and what that costs us [01:47]Creating containers for imagination: CLLCTIVLY's $75K residency program [04:30]The capacity building myth: why organizations need capital, not more training [12:22]What funders get wrong about outcomes and sustainability [06:08]Participatory grantmaking and putting people before projects [09:22]How philanthropy shifts priorities every 3-5 years — and why that's devastating [10:09]The missing VC-style pipeline for social impact organizations [12:00]Partnership vs. paternalism: reimagining funder-grantee relationships [19:27]Navigating the DEI backlash and building sustainable funding models [16:31]From $5,000 to $1.2 million: how individual donors built Collective Give [19:00]Creating power balance in philanthropy spaces [22:12]The personal cost: "Dad, you're so close, but so far" [30:44]What keeps Jamye going when the work is relentless [29:17]Connect with CLLCTIVLY and what's next [33:56]Notable Quotes"We've been trying to create a container for imagination and to provide space for other folks to pause and imagine the future that they want to see." — Jamye Wooten [03:43]"Capital will help you build capacity.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Patrick Naughton, Jr, author of the book Born from War. Originally from Hawaii, Patrick is a United States (US) Army officer and a Military Historian. He is currently teaching at the Command and General Staff College at Fort Leavenworth, KS.   He received the Army's General Douglas MacArthur Leadership Award in 2012. He has had unique opportunities to serve as an Interagency Fellow with the Department of Labor, a Legislative Liaison to the US Senate, and a Congressional Partnership Program Fellow with the Partnership for a Secure America - all in Washington, D.C. He also served as a Senior Leadership Fellow with the Center for Junior Officers at West Point.   He holds a Master of Military Arts and Science degree in History from the US Army Command and General Staff College, where he was an Art of War Scholar. He also holds a Master of Science in Crisis and Emergency Management and a Bachelor of Arts degree in History both from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas where he was an Army ROTC Distinguished Military Graduate.    He has published in several venues, but his first book “Born From War: A Soldier's Quest to Understand Vietnam, Iraq, and the Generational Impact of Conflict” was released in April 2025. The views expressed in those publications and this website are his own and not of the Department of the Army, the Department of Defense, or any agency of the US Government.   He is forever thankful for the support of his lovely wife, Sheila and their beautiful son, Tommy.   In my book review, I stated Born from War is an incredible memoir that looks at the author's time in Iraq compared to his father's time in Vietnam. Despite the decades between the wars and the many differing circumstances, Patrick found astounding similarities. These similarities helped him to understand his father and 'his father's war' in ways he never thought possible.   I found it very interesting that without identifiers giving me the what or when, many of the author's recollections could have been swapped with his father's. It makes me wonder if the same would be true for those who fought in WWII or Korea or any modern conflict - and if so, what do we need to learn as a people about war and what it does to soldiers and to civilians living with the consequences.   Despite 'lessons learned' from Vietnam, it appears some things do not change. Can they? Should they? And how do we get those in charge to understand what is actually happening on the front lines?   I enjoyed this book and feel like I know a bit more about Vietnam, Iraq, and the soldiers who are willing to fight for their country - even when the goals are nebulous.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Patrick Naughton, Jr Website: https://www.patnaughton.com/ X: @PatrickMilHis FB: @patrick.naughton.37 IG: @patricknaugh LinkedIn: Patrick Naughton   Purchase Born from War on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/4nfooeZ Ebook: https://amzn.to/3JNP7kn   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

Interview with Kurt Budge, CEO of Leading Edge Materials Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/leading-edge-materials-tsxvlem-strategic-rare-earths-projects-amid-eus-critical-minerals-push-6094Recording date: 27th November 2025Leading Edge Materials Corp. (TSXV:LEM) is advancing its Norra Kärr heavy rare earth project in Sweden towards a prefeasibility study expected to complete in the first half of 2026, positioning one of Europe's few advanced-stage heavy rare earth assets closer to production. The project's production profile of 248 tonnes of dysprosium and 38 tonnes of terbium oxide compares directly to Lynas Rare Earths' recent Malaysian plant expansion, establishing Norra Kärr at strategically significant scale within global heavy rare earth supply.The strategic rationale for European heavy rare earth production has intensified as Chinese export restrictions throughout 2025 created supply disruptions and price volatility that industry leaders characterise as a crisis. Dysprosium and terbium are critical components in permanent magnets used in electric vehicle motors, wind turbines, and defence systems, with European manufacturers remaining almost entirely dependent on Chinese production. CEO Kurt Budge directly questions whether Europe can rely on heavy rare earths from potentially misaligned jurisdictions for defence equipment and armaments production, highlighting supply security as a national security imperative beyond industrial applications.Leading Edge Materials benefits from 16 years of technical work on Norra Kärr, providing a substantial data foundation that reduces technical risk compared to earlier-stage exploration projects. The current programme focuses on two critical work streams: optimising mineral processing using 28,000 metres of drill core for test work, and upgrading the mineral resource from inferred classification. The company is conducting hydrometallurgy assessment on eudialyte mineral concentrates containing heavy rare earths whilst evaluating nepheline syenite by-products for ceramics, glass, and coatings markets, providing dual revenue stream potential.The company's economic modelling focuses on mine gate economics without requiring integrated downstream processing infrastructure, acknowledging capital constraints whilst establishing fundamental extraction economics. This approach allows Norra Kärr to demonstrate project viability as if concentrates were sold to third-party processors, reducing capital requirements whilst maintaining optionality for future vertical integration. Independent market assessments are updating rare earth pricing decks and industrial mineral market analysis to inform the prefeasibility study economic model.Near-term catalysts include a mining lease decision expected in the near future, representing a critical regulatory milestone that de-risks the project and positions it favourably for government support programmes. Partnership discussions with downstream permanent magnet manufacturers are underway, with the company aiming to establish collaborative frameworks concurrent with prefeasibility study completion. The development timeline positions the resource approximately three to four years from production, assuming successful completion of studies and securing of project finance.European policymakers are actively discussing price support mechanisms including floor prices and contracts for difference, modelled on US Department of Defense interventions for MP Materials. These mechanisms acknowledge that market manipulation by dominant suppliers creates investment risk requiring government intervention to ensure European heavy rare earth production. Sweden's positioning as a leading European mining nation provides jurisdictional advantages, with the current government articulating ambitions to lead European critical minerals production.The 2026 work programme represents a pivotal year for Leading Edge Materials, with prefeasibility study completion and mining lease approval expected to catalyse government funding or strategic investment from downstream partners seeking supply security. The company operates across multiple exchanges including Toronto, Stockholm, New York, and Frankfurt, facilitating access to European and North American capital markets focused on critical minerals supply security.View Leading Edge Materials' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/leading-edge-materialsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

“Better utilizing data can give a more-tailored member experience—which makes the member truly feel like their credit union knows them.” – Mike KrausThank you for tuning in to The CUInsight Network, with your host, Robbie Young, Vice President of Strategic Growth at CUInsight. In The CUInsight Network, we take a deeper dive with the thought leaders who support the credit union community. We discuss issues and challenges facing credit unions and identify best practices to learn and grow together.Today's episode is the first part of a very special four-part series brought to you by TruStage! Today's discussion is with Mike Kraus (Managing Director of TruStage Ventures) and Jamie Jackson (CEO of Arkatechure), and we focus on how credit unions can make use of their data to drive better member experiences and business outcomes, with Jamie explaining that credit unions often struggle with data silos, lack of data ownership, and a culture of fear around data expertise and Mike noting that credit unions have an abundance of member data, but it is often locked away in legacy core systems. To unlock the value, it's so important for credit unions to pull all their data together into a unified platform!In our conversation, both Mike and Jamie really emphasize the role that fintech partnerships can play, as they can provide the modern data infrastructure, analytics capabilities, and agility that credit unions often lack. However, they also caution that partnerships must be strategic, with clear alignment on goals and outcomes. We also cover why it's so important to start small and prove value via quick wins and then scaling the data strategy. Measuring outcomes, not just activities, is key, and the most successful credit unions will be those that empower all employees to make data-driven decisions!As we wrap up the episode, we highlight how effectively leveraging data is crucial for credit unions to deliver personalized member experiences and drive sustainable growth in a rapidly evolving financial services landscape!

Sport has always been central to Nike's identity, not just as a business, but as a force for human potential. This commitment extends to the social issues at the heart of youth athletics today, particularly surrounding keeping youth in sports and connected to physical activity and elevating the role of caring, well-equipped coaches. With young people today navigating unprecedented levels of stress and lack of physical activity, coaches play an invaluable role in providing community, restorative power, and safe spaces. Nike has been at the center of this work for decades, stemming from its belief that if you have a body, you're an athlete—and that every athlete deserves access and the opportunity to thrive.We invited Vanessa Garcia-Brito, Vice President and Chief Impact Officer at Nike, to share how Nike is reimagining the landscape of youth athletics and building purpose-driven programs. Vanessa unpacked the insights behind Nike's “Coach the Dream” initiative, the importance of caring and culturally aware coaches, and why investing in girls' coaching is non-negotiable for long-term impact. She also emphasized the role of partnerships, with organizations like Dove and Spotify, and in meeting girls where they are to dismantle barriers to participation. This episode offers a powerful blueprint for how a long-established, trusted brand has integrated purpose, community relevance, and business value to drive meaningful change.Listen for insights on:Building impact programs around what your company uniquely does bestDesigning scalable tools for global activationEstablishing clear long-term goals with flexibility for real-time adaptationAdvice for young professionals looking to work in social impact Resources + Links:Vanessa Garcia-Brito's LinkedInCoach the DreamIf You Let Me Play (00:00) - Welcome to Purpose 360 (00:13) - Vanessa Garcia-Brito, Nike (02:54) - About Vanessa (03:58) - Early Influences (06:09) - Chief Impact Officer (06:59) - Superpower (08:17) - Nike's Purpose (10:09) - Key Campaigns (12:23) - If You Can See It, She Can Be It (16:33) - Partnerships (18:08) - Coaches (19:00) - Coaching Girls Guide (22:09) - Inspirational Story (24:29) - Measurements (27:00) - Advice for Colleagues (28:34) - Advice for Young People (30:17) - Last Word (31:19) - Wrap Up

Over 210,000 federal workers left their jobs this year because of the Trump administration.That's according to the Partnership for Public Service Harms Tracker. For many, it's meant walking away from, or being pushed out of, a decades-long commitment to public service.And one trend that's emerging? Fired or laid-off former federal employees and contractors are running for public office.We feature the voices of several former federal workers to hear why they see politics as the next step, especially after being forced out of jobs that were always meant to stay apolitical. What does it mean for the future health of our democracy?Find more of our programs online.

The bell rings, the doors open, and the real work begins: keeping kids safe while the drug market slips into their phones and pockets. We sit down with Principal Leland Hansen to unpack the day-to-day reality of school-based prevention, from vape pens hidden in hoodies to Snapchat dealers who change handles as fast as administrators can warn parents. Leland lays out a candid, practical playbook that pairs firm boundaries with a health-first response, including a six-week on-campus program for first offenses that removes friction for families and actually gets used.We get specific about what's showing up now—tobacco and THC vapes far more than alcohol—why post-legalization supply is spilling into schools, and how educators investigate under strict limits that require reasonable suspicion. Leland shares the red flags he watches for, like sudden changes in demeanor and unlikely new friend pairings, and explains why middle school is the leverage point where beliefs are forming and choices stick. We compare big assemblies that grab attention with smaller class sessions that build trust and invite tough questions, and we talk about how students quietly use anonymous tip lines to help friends despite a “no snitching” culture.Parents are crucial, but time-starved. We discuss ways to reach them—tabling at concerts and back-to-school nights, short videos and podcasts they can catch between chores, and direct guidance on home limits that reinforce school expectations. Partnerships matter: local nonprofits providing on-campus support, health educators updating staff on evolving devices, and police following up when adult sellers target kids. The throughline is simple and strong: clear rules, credible facts, and rapid support change outcomes.If you care about safer schools, smarter prevention, and giving adolescents real choices, you'll find tactics you can use tomorrow—whether you're an educator, parent, or community partner.

This one's straight from the garage: quick rig and life updates up top (the lights crushed it, it wasn't the power-steering pump, and yes—we aired those tires way down on purpose). We traded a little friendly grief about beadlocks and link setups, then hit a short news run with gear worth watching, event notes, and a couple access items you'll actually care about before your next trip. The back half is all you—voicemails with a solid trail win, a “learned it the hard way” moment, and one eerily on-point call about getting stuck in the sand that turned into real talk about prep, recovery, and doing it right on public land.
