Women are paying $350 for a testosterone pellet. The same hormone, in a men's tube, can last a year for $86.Texas Rep. Katrina Pierson (HD 33) — former Trump national spokesperson and chair of the House Subcommittee on Maternal Health, Menopause and Access to Evidence-Based Medicine — sits down with Brad Swail on Texas Talks to walk through her Texas Women's Health Initiative: baseline hormone testing, HRT coverage, physician liability, iron and prenatal access, and why she says doctors now practice insurance instead of medicine.Pierson spent 14 years in healthcare, including OB-GYN. She filed a menopause-coverage bill in 2025 that never got a hearing. After the FDA lifted the HRT black-box warning, she took a larger package to the Speaker and got interim charges. In this conversation she explains:• Why she wants insurance to cover physician-prescribed perimenopause and menopause treatment — including testosterone when medically necessary • The case for baseline hormone testing before women get labeled with depression or anxiety • Prior authorization, compounding clinics, and telehealth HRT after the black box came off • Why Medicaid still requires a prescription for prenatal vitamins, and why she wants physicians able to dispense iron and basics in the office • What she heard in her subcommittee's first hearing on prenatal nutrition and Healthy Texas Women • The gap she flagged in HTW: enrollment is up, participation is down • The next hearing (date TBD) on menopause and perimenopause, including patient testimony at the CapitolTexas Talks — policy conversations with the people shaping Texas.Subscribe for more interviews with Texas lawmakers, agency leaders, and policy experts.Chapters 0:00 If a doctor prescribes it, why can't you get it? 0:55 Intro: Rep.

Em outubro de 1888, na sessão mais dividida da história adventista, os delegados elegeram um presidente que não estava na sala. Ole Andres Olsen estava na Escandinávia. Soube da própria eleição por comunicação recebida do outro lado do Atlântico, depois de encerrada a sessão. E a ausência dele não era um defeito da candidatura. Era a candidatura. Quando um corpo deliberativo se divide em duas facções irredutíveis, ele perde a capacidade de escolher entre elas — mas não perde a capacidade de escolher. O que ele faz é procurar fora do conjunto que produziu a divisão, porque qualquer nome de dentro carrega a marca de um dos lados. Olsen é a primeira ocorrência desse padrão, e o módulo o encontrará mais cinco vezes: Watson vindo da Austrália em 1930, Branson de uma China em revolução em 1950, Pierson da Rodésia em 1966, Folkenberg de uma associação local em 1990, Köhler do Brasil em 2025. Neste episódio: a cena que Gilbert Valentine reconstruiu nos arquivos — a comissão de nomeações sem lista de reservas, a consulta a Ellen White numa pequena tenda redonda ao lado da tenda-refeitório, e a pergunta que decidiu a sucessão. Note-se a mecânica, que é uma aula de eclesiologia em miniatura: a voz profética não nomeou o presidente; foi consultada por uma comissão eleita, sugeriu em forma de pergunta, e o plenário votou. Cada instância fez o que lhe cabia, e nenhuma engoliu a outra. Também: o imigrante norueguês que chegou aos cinco anos e administrou cinco associações americanas e três escandinavas antes dos quarenta e três, operando em duas línguas — o primeiro presidente da Associação Geral nascido fora dos Estados Unidos; a arquitetura das Uniões, que ele defendeu na década de 1890 e cuja primeira materialização nasceu na Austrália em 1894, sete anos antes de 1901 — prova de que as reformas adventistas sobem da periferia para o centro; o Pitcairn, construído em plena depressão com ofertas da Escola Sabatina de crianças; a orçamentação denominacional, que ele introduziu quando o Pânico de 1893 tornou o planejamento questão de sobrevivência. E o episódio mais difícil: os testemunhos de 1891 que ele não leu ao corpo, a descoberta de Ellen White em 1894, a repreensão por escrito, e o caso A. R. Henry — que terminou no primeiro processo judicial movido por um ex-dirigente contra a Associação Geral. O princípio que o caso demonstra: o custo de reter é sempre maior que o custo de publicar, porque quem retém informação do corpo já decidiu sozinho, mesmo sem querer. Fecha com a análise tipológica integral, o diálogo com Montesquieu e Weber, e as aplicações para estrutura de liderança, sistema de governo, corpo ministerial e membresia.
Andrew recently sold an underutilized CNC lathe, which raises a bigger question: when an investment does not work out as planned, was the money wasted? How do you gauge what value you got out of it, even in learning?Andrew and Jay discuss knowing when to experiment, when to hire expertise instead of learning everything yourself, and why good business owners need to understand what they should and should not personally master.Then the conversation turns to KPIs, benchmarking, revenue per employee, and the danger of comparing your company against businesses operating under completely different constraints. They also dig into the levers a business owner can actually control, why discounts may simply pull future sales into the present, and the relative value of Pierson's traditional IMTS sale.

(Sunday, Aug. 30, 2026) – Don't tell the principal, but Max Garcia may have earned the right to skip school Monday after his stirring first career INDY NXT by Firestone victory Sunday at the Milwaukee Mile. Series rookie Garcia earned his first win in his 15th career start in the INDYCAR development series, driving his No. 12 Abel Motorsports machine under the checkered flag .9430 of a second ahead of the No. 68 Cusick Morgan Motorsports car of JM Correa, who also earned a career-best finish. SEE: Race Results It's still uncertain whether Garcia, 17, will be in homeroom Monday morning at Christopher Columbus High School in Miami, where he just started his senior year. “Unbelievable,” Garcia said. “It's been such a tough year for all of us at Abel. We knew we had a good oval package. We knew we set the car up more for the race, and we knew in practice we could move through cars. It was all about timing it right and then getting through everyone. “I'm trying to convince my mom not to let me go to school. Surely, this is something to celebrate. A day off would be nice, right?” Rookie Jack Beeton continued his strong second half of the season by finishing third in the No. 45 HMD Motorsports machine, earning his third podium result in the last five races. Andretti Global's Max Taylor finished fourth in the No. 28 Susan G. Komen entry, while Nikita Johnson rounded out the top five in the No. 21 Cape Motorsports Powered by ECR car and took the lead in a sizzling championship fight with two races remaining. Johnson drove from 15th at the start to earn his eighth top-five finish of the season. He leads Enzo Fittipaldi by three points and third-place Tymek Kucharczyk by 29 entering the season-ending Grand Prix of Monterey doubleheader Sept. 5-6 at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. It's tied for the fifth-closest race margin between the top two drivers with two races to go in series history. “I just kept my head down, pushed really hard and found lines that other people didn't find until about halfway through,” Johnson said. “I think that really helps, just playing around and trying different lines out when everybody was just stuck in one line. It was a really good points day for us.” Fittipaldi finished seventh in the No. 67 HMD Motorsports car, while Kucharczyk placed 12th in the No. 71 HMD Motorsports machine. Garcia started ninth but steadily worked his way through the field on the 1.015-mile oval. He passed Beeton for second on Lap 35 and pulled to within one second of leader and pole sitter Josh Pierson of Andretti Global, who had led by more than two seconds in the early going of the 90-lap race. Under pressure from Garcia, Pierson's quest for his first career victory unraveled on Lap 54 when he spun in the No. 29 Starchive Andretti car in Turn 2 while leading and hit the tire barrier inside that corner to end his race. Pierson led every lap to that point. Garcia inherited the lead and never surrendered it despite four restarts in the last 37 laps after the race went caution-free for the first 53 laps. Abel Motorsports driver Garcia was threatened only once on one of those restarts. Beeton looked under Garcia in Turn 1 on Lap 83 but couldn't complete the pass. On the next and final restart on Lap 86, Garcia left no doubt by getting a good jump and pulling away easily. Beeton and Correa raced side by side for second on that restart, allowing Garcia even more time and space out front. Correa eventually prevailed in that duel, one of 208 on-track passes, a track record for INDY NXT at Milwaukee. New heights at Rallye Mont-Blanc Morzine! After an extended summer break following the cancellation of Rallye Rouergue Rodez Aveyron Occitanie, the Clio Trophy France Asphalte resumes next week at Rallye Mont-Blanc Morzine. At this iconic French Rally Championship event, the return to action will be intense, with 39 crews ready to give it their all to reach the midseason mark in the lead and enter the home stretch in a strong position. Now in its seventh season with the fifth-generation Renault Clio, the Clio Trophy France Asphalte continues to prove its appeal, with a record 39 Clio Rally5 cars set to line up at Morzine this year. The Alpine mountains offer a magnificent backdrop for the competitors, who are eager to return to competition for the first time since mid-June. Leader in the general classification following his first victory in the Vosges, Paul Dachicourt (Fun Meca Sport) will look to consolidate his advantage in Morzine. Also leading the Junior category, where an official drive is up for grabs, the Pas-de-Calais native will target another victory at a rally that went his way last year, when he posted one of his best results despite a puncture on the opening special stage. His main rivals, however, are determined to prevent him from pulling away. Winner of the opening round at Le Touquet, Maxence Potard (Gilbert Compétition) will rely on his experience in the Alps to bounce back after his crash in the Vosges. The member of the FFSA's Collectif France Rallye isn't the only one with this objective, as Romain Brun will attempt to return to the sharp end of the order after a difficult weekend in the Vosges. Several competitors will try to capitalise on their knowledge of the roads to close the gap to the leaders. Having secured four podium finishes with Clio Rally5 at Morzine since 2020, Romain Fostier (David Auto Compétition) is a serious contender for victory in this demanding event. He will also seek to increase his lead over his rivals in the Gentlemen class: Pascal Bérard, Jacques Bourrat, Franck Giraud (Lycée Roger Claustre) and Michaël Durigon, who returns to the Clio Trophy France Asphalte for his 22nd start in the event. Jérôme Janny (David Auto Compétition) will equally rely on his experience to build on his strong start to the season, as will Yohan Roumieux (JLA Rally), who finished in the top ten last year, and Maxime Chagot (LCS Location), a two-time class winner at Morzine. Fabien Combe, who has finished 10th twice this year, and Christophe Truchet, 2025 Clio Full Challenge winner, will be outsiders to watch in their Rallye Mont-Blanc Morzine debut. Behind the trio of Paul Dachicourt, Maxence Potard and Romain Brun, other Junior drivers have high hopes. Following his first podium finish in the Vosges, Clément Didier (JLA Rally) will look to build on that form in the Alps, where Alex Florenson (PH Sport), who finished fifth a year ago, will target a trip to the podium next Saturday. Also worth keeping an eye on are Thomas Santiago (LCS Location), Louis Gass (PH Sport), Néo Rivallant (Fun Meca Sport), Oliver Sørensen, Thomas Van Outryve (LCS Location) and Maxence Girard (CHL Sport Auto), all in search of valuable points. Meanwhile, Tom Le Jossec (Rageau Sport Location) and Alexis Poso (Salvi Compétition) will aim to stay in contention on their Mont-Blanc debut with Clio Rally5. Back in action after his retirement at Le Touquet, Loan Guibal (Salvi Compétition) wants to turn his obvious speed into stage wins and a strong result in a rally he is discovering for the first time, just like Léo Véricel, Louis Bottin (PH Sport) and Alfred Sablonnière. Clémentine Benoit (Sarrazin Motorsport) will defend her lead in the women's category and face Lilou Boulangé (Gazou Compétition), a rookie this season behind the wheel after co-driving for her father Arnaud in 2025. Nicolas Paviet-Roche and Mathieu Duclos will make their first appearance of the year in familiar surroundings. Killian Marry will also return to the service park to tackle Alpine special stages for the first time – stages that several newcomers know well, notably William Gagnière, Paul Missillier and Vincent Chagot, Maxime's brother. Lastly, Grégory Scotto La Chianca will make his Clio Trophy France Asphalte debut, as will Robin Duarte, Arthur Guillaume and Tanguy Rubin-Delanchy, who have all cut their teeth with Clio Rally5 in the French Rally Cup. The 78th Rallye Mont-Blanc Morzine will feature 12 timed sectors covering a total of 196.04 kilometres over a 493.87 km route. On Friday, the action gets underway on the Montriond-le-Lac – Avoriaz stage, followed by two loops comprising Bonneville – Glières Val de Borne and Les Clefs – La Clusaz, then a single run on the Morzine – Montriond-le-Lac stage. On Saturday, the crews will tackle Morillon – Samoëns, Samoëns – Morzine and La Côte d'Arbroz – Taninges three times. The final ten special stages will each award up to five “Jean Ragnotti Performer” points to the five fastest drivers, in addition to the standard finishing points. Ten Clio Rally3s, six Clio Rally4s and nine Clio Rally5s outside the trophy will also be at the start of the event.

What does a real lean shop look like when the cameras aren't hiding the mess?In this episode of Lean Built, Jay Pierson goes solo to break down a behind-the-scenes day at Pierson Workholding...and some of the misconceptions people have about lean manufacturing. A lean operation isn't necessarily spotless, effortless, or perfectly optimized. Sometimes two guys wrapping a pallet is actually the right solution.Jay digs into why Pierson starts the day with 3S, how leaders should turn expectations into clear systems and procedures, and why extreme ownership means taking responsibility when your team doesn't meet the standard.He also looks toward the future: AI, robotics, automation, and the technology that will increasingly remove tedious physical and mental labor. But the goal isn't a world without work. There's something deeply satisfying about making things, solving hard problems, and finishing the day knowing you produced something real.
On the show floor at Black Hat USA 2026, Marco Ciappelli connected with Dr. Chris Pierson, Founder and CEO at BlackCloak, about a change in where the company draws the line around who gets protected. BlackCloak launched Impersonation Protection several months ago for the C-suite and their families. Clients came back asking for more reach. Why does deepfake risk extend past the executive? Because the people surrounding an executive hold the access attackers want. Pierson lists the trusts and estates attorney, the private wealth manager, the lawyer, the spiritual advisor, the dog walker. Each one is a plausible caller with a legitimate reason to reach out about money, schedules, property, or family. The economics moved too. Pierson contrasts an era when a convincing fake needed something close to a studio operation with what the same result costs now: a laptop, a small sample of audio or video, roughly three minutes of processing, live video and audio. He points to the February 2024 case where a finance employee acted on an impersonated CFO and twenty five million dollars went out the door. The expanded capability lets a member extend coverage across their circle at no cost to the invited contact. Pierson says the platform can now scale to hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of individuals at a single company, along with family members and key contacts. The point, as he frames it, is to stop the deepfake where it starts, which is at the human. What changed for executive protection over the past year? Physical and digital stopped being separate programs. Pierson traces that shift to the murder of Brian Thompson, the UnitedHealthcare CEO, and to the questions corporate security teams started asking afterward. Digital breadcrumbs sit on data broker sites and across the deep and dark web, and erasure is unrealistic, which moves the work toward protection rather than removal. That thinking shows up in the product. Members receive travel advisories tied to where they are going, and a CISO can pair a world threat dashboard with cybersecurity guidance for a specific trip. Behind it sits eight years of member data and one of the larger deception networks aimed at individuals, which shows BlackCloak where targeting concentrates, from executive airports to the Olympics to the World Cup.

Has your life gone exactly like you thought it would? For most of us, the honest answer is no. Our lives are full of unexpected turns, delays, and detours. We plan our steps, but we must also learn to wrestle with the stops. As believers, we need to build a biblical framework for when curveballs are thrown our way, so we can navigate them with confidence and make sense of it all.The great theologian Arthur Pierson once found himself in the study of George Mueller, a man renowned for his faith. Looking through Mueller's personal Bible, Pierson came to Psalm 37:23, which says, “The steps of a godly man are ordered by the Lord.” In the margin, Mueller had written, “And the stops too.” This profound insight reminds us that God is not only in our forward motion but also in the moments He brings us to a halt. When we face a detour, we can trust the promise of Scripture: “For I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, do not fear; I will help you” (Isaiah 41:13).
This meeting was a training session led by Yitzchak on "The AI Ready Real Estate Agent and the Skills You Must Have by 2027" as part of the Agent Collective Power Huddle series. Yitzchak discussed how AI is already shaping real estate business through consumer search behavior and data verification, emphasizing that while AI handles tasks and provides information, human agents must focus on interpretation, relationship building, local market expertise, education-based communication, decision guidance, visibility, and system thinking to remain valuable in the AI-enhanced real estate market. He outlined specific skills agents need to develop, including interpretation and context over data, relationship and trust capital, local market authority, education-based communication, decision guidance, visibility for AI to find them, system thinking for delegating tasks, and maintaining human advantages in trust, emotional intelligence, and local nuance that AI cannot replace. Yitzchak concluded by encouraging agents to invest time in education, local authority, systems development, reputation building, and leveraging their expertise rather than getting distracted by new shiny tools, emphasizing that the future rewards clarity, trust, and relevance over pure hustle.

Episode Overview In this episode of Off the Clock, hosts Keith Maziarek and Justin Ergler sit down with Michael Pierson, Co-Founder and Co-Chairman of Pierson Ferdinand. Launched in January 2024 as the largest law firm debut in U.S. history with 130 partners, Pierson Ferdinand has rapidly grown to over 300 partners globally across 35+ markets. Michael shares how his background in architecture shaped his approach to law firm management, how Pierson Ferdinand is dismantling the traditional Big Law pyramid leverage model, and why embedding AI natively—rather than as an afterthought—allows their firm to deliver superior value to clients while fostering a culture of "radical inclusion." Episode Highlights Architectural Foundations for Firm Design: Michael discusses how studying architecture at Versailles taught him to think systemically, plan ahead, and innovate within strict regulatory boundaries—skills that were vital when designing a law firm infrastructure from scratch. Flipping the Big Law Model: Traditional law firm leverage models rely heavily on billing clients for junior associate training. Pierson Ferdinand operates with a partner-heavy, lean structure where clients only pay for experienced, direct-value work. The "10x Lawyer" and AI Integration: By embedding tools like Harvey AI into daily workflows (e.g., executing private equity side letters on flat fees), the firm empowers partners to become exponentially more efficient without passing unnecessary overhead onto clients. Culture, Pedigree, and the "No Jerks" Rule: While elite legal credentials are table stakes, Pierson Ferdinand places equal or greater weight on soft skills, radical inclusion, humility, and hiring genuinely great human beings who thrive in a consensus-driven environment. The Junior Partner On-Ramp: Addressing burnout and shifting industry demographics by creating a junior partner class (for 5th and 6th-year associates), offering a sustainable career alternative with direct mentorship from senior partners. Flexible Value Pricing: Rather than enforcing rigid mandates, the firm empowers partners to utilize Alternative Fee Arrangements (AFAs), flat fees, and data-driven pricing models tailored to specific client needs.

Yitzchak Pearson conducted a training session titled "Stop Selling Houses and Start Building a Business" for real estate agents, focusing on transitioning from a salesperson mindset to a CEO business owner mindset. He explained how most agents are trained to close deals rather than build sustainable businesses, often working reactive hours and wearing multiple hats as CEO, CMO, accountant, and IT department. Yitzchak shared his own success story, including $13.25 million in sales in 2025 and being recognized as a top producer, while emphasizing the importance of calculating your hourly rate, delegating tasks, and building systems that can operate independently. He discussed the power of video content, marketing assets that compound over time, and the strategic use of virtual assistants and team members to scale the business. The session concluded with an action plan encouraging agents to calculate their hourly value, delegate tasks, create marketing content, document standard operating procedures, and meet with financial professionals to build a sustainable business model.
Maple Park Church Sermon - Speaker David Pierson - July 12th, 2026 by Maple Park Church
After an accident, the first call from an insurance adjuster may seem helpful, but it can shape the outcome of a claim before an injured person understands their options. In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Kevin Kaufman, Founding Partner and Attorney at Kaufman & McPherson Personal Injury Lawyers, who discusses how his transition from corporate law to a client-centered personal injury practice shaped his approach to advocacy, communication, and client reassurance. Kevin also explains how early legal guidance, trial preparation, and realistic expectations can affect the value and resolution of an injury claim. Key Takeaways:→ Injured people should be cautious about early insurance offers. → Insurance companies seek to resolve claims at the lowest possible cost.→ Trial preparation can strengthen settlement leverage. → Clients need clear explanations free of legal jargon.→ Community understanding can strengthen client advocacy. Kevin S. Kaufman graduated from Bridgeport High School in 1977, where he received a National Merit Scholarship, a full scholarship from Consolidated Natural Gas Company, and a West Virginia Achievement Scholarship. Mr. Kaufman completed his education at West Virginia University, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, an MBA, and a law degree. Upon graduating from law school, Mr. Kaufman accepted a position with Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation. Shortly thereafter, he was selected to work in the law department of the newly formed production branch, Columbia Natural Resources. In 1987, Mr. Kaufman left the Columbia system to form the Charleston law firm Pierson & Kaufman. He remained a partner in that firm and in its successor, Pierson, Kaufman & Stowers, until 1992. In 1992, Mr. Kaufman returned home to North Central West Virginia and established The Law Offices of Kevin S. Kaufman, which ultimately became Kaufman & McPherson, PLLC.

Yitzchak Pearson conducted a training session on "The Business of Real Estate That Nobody Taught You," focusing on treating real estate as a business rather than just a job. He emphasized the importance of having a calendar for lead generation activities, understanding conversion rates, and calculating one's hourly income value to determine when to delegate tasks. Yitzchak shared his success story of doing $13.25 million in sales last year and being verified in the top 250 agents with EXP Realty in the United States. He discussed creating systems and processes, building a brand that attracts ideal clients, and establishing boundaries to avoid burnout. The session covered topics including marketing as a long-term asset, building a board of directors with professionals like tax advisors and financial experts, and creating standard operating procedures. Yitzchak stressed the importance of investing in oneself through coaching and professional development while building a business that can run independently, allowing for freedom and time with family.
I brought back Becky Pierson Davidson to compare notes on where community is headed — and we found a few areas of disagreement. Becky works with 6, 7, and 8-figure businesses helping them build memberships and courses through design thinking and customer research, and she's seeing a major shift right now: course businesses are slowing down, and the smart ones are pivoting to membership models. The difference? Shared learning experiences are replacing self-paced education. Community is what people stay for. We dig into the real mechanics: how to set expectations that don't feel like a bait-and-switch, why meaningful engagement isn't what most people think it is, the mastermind paradox (increases retention, decreases forum activity), and why in-person events might be the most important retention lever you're not using. Becky's hot take for 2026: content drops are dying. People don't need more stuff — they need connection and programming that moves them forward.

Sanctuary on the Moon est une initiative internationale visant à créer une capsule temporelle. Il s'agit de graver sur des disques des dessins et des textes qui reflètent « ce que l'on est, ce que l'on sait, ce que l'on fait aujourd'hui » pour ensuite les déposer sur la Lune avec une prochaine mission de la NASA et qu'ils y restent « pour qu'un jour des archéologues puissent les retrouver et comprendre comment notre civilisation était en 2020, 2030 ».L'objectif est de garder des traces de l'humanité telle qu'elle existe aujourd'hui dans des milliers, voire des millions, d'années à venir. Des collégiens de notre partenaire Eco Radio, du collège Vincent Van Gogh, à Blénod-lès-Pont-à-Mousson, en France, ont reçu trois invités pour parler du projet et du concours « Les enfants de la planète Terre » : Hélène Pierson, rédactrice scientifique de Sanctuary on the Moon, Juliette Sardet de la Commission nationale française pour l'UNESCO, et Guillaume Monnain, illustrateur spécialisé dans la vulgarisation scientifique.Dans cet entretien, ils expliquent ce qu'est le projet Sanctuary on the Moon etcomment les enfants sont impliqués dans ce projet à travers un concours sélectionnant des dessins qui seront envoyés sur la Lune.
Yitzchak Pearson presented at the Agent Power Huddle about the transformative power of video marketing in real estate, sharing his personal journey from 2020 when he began making weekly webcam videos documenting his transition from manufacturing to real estate, to his current success where YouTube content led to over 120 home sales with a single client. He detailed how his initial videos evolved from simple updates to educational content about real estate acronyms, and eventually to more sophisticated YouTube videos after investing $5,000 in training with Levi Lasak and Travis Plum. Yitzchak explained that his consistent video creation, despite initial discomfort and lack of results for over a year and a half, ultimately attracted clients from across the country, including a major client group he has sold multiple homes to since March 2024. He emphasized key takeaways including the importance of consistent content creation, starting small, not worrying about perfection, and using video to build a digital presence that works 24/7, concluding that the goal is to become visible rather than go viral.
The meeting focused on building personal brands in real estate, with Yitzchak leading an interactive class about developing unique value propositions. Yitzchak shared his personal journey of transitioning from manufacturing to real estate, emphasizing the importance of leveraging unique personal experiences and skills rather than trying to conform to industry norms. He discussed his branding strategy "Knock Knock Yitzak" and how he uses his extensive education (900+ hours) and personal story to attract clients who align with his values. The class covered how to uncover personal strengths, turn stories into value propositions, and use vulnerability to build trust, with Yitzchak encouraging participants to create their own working documents using tools like ChatGPT to refine their unique positioning in the market.

What if one of the most underutilized profit levers in your business… is already sitting right in front of you? In this episode, I sit down with membership and community strategist Becky Pierson Davidson to unpack how most business owners are leaving massive revenue - and retention - on the table by focusing on the wrong things. Most people think they have a marketing problem… When in reality, they have a retention and experience problem. We dive into how to design a membership (or any client experience) that actually keeps people engaged, getting results, and talking about your business - so growth becomes easier, more profitable, and far less dependent on constantly finding new customers. If you've ever felt like you're working too hard to bring people in… or like your offers aren't compounding the way they should… this episode will completely shift how you think about growth.

Yitzchak Pierson dives into the science and strategy behind habit formation, showing how small, intentional changes can create massive long-term results in both business and life. He breaks down the habit loop—cue, routine, reward—and shares real examples of how he replaced unproductive behaviors with intentional routines, including simple tactics like making bad habits harder and good habits easier to execute. Yitzchak emphasizes that transformation doesn't come from drastic changes, but from consistent, repeatable actions that compound over time. He introduces concepts like neuroplasticity to explain how habits literally reshape the brain, and encourages agents to adopt lifelong learning as a core habit for success. The session also highlights tools like creating an “accomplishment board” to reinforce progress and build momentum, helping shift focus from where you are to how far you've come. If you're ready to level up your discipline, eliminate distractions, and create habits that actually stick, this episode gives you a simple, practical roadmap.
At RSAC Conference 2026, Dr. Chris Pierson, Founder and CEO of BlackCloak, sat down with Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli for a conversation that has become something of an annual tradition. What started in 2018 as a category BlackCloak largely invented -- digital executive protection -- has become one of the most pressing concerns in enterprise security. Adversaries have figured out that the easiest path into a company often runs straight through the personal lives of its leaders: the About Us page, the board listing, the family members visible on social media. BlackCloak was built to close that gap. BlackCloak announced at RSAC Conference 2026 the launch of its new travel advisory platform -- a tool designed to give executives and their families actionable, real-time intelligence when traveling domestically or internationally. Pierson explained that CISOs and CSOs are increasingly being asked questions that go well beyond network security: what are the crime trends in this city, what embassy contacts are needed, which areas should be avoided? The platform distills complex, fast-moving threat intelligence into concise briefings -- four or five pages, mobile-accessible, and built for the executive and the family members traveling alongside them. On the privacy side, BlackCloak introduced Search Suppression -- a new feature that goes further than data broker removal alone. Even after information is scrubbed from the major data broker sites, traces of personally identifiable information can persist across the open internet. Search Suppression identifies those instances and requests their removal from search engine results, shrinking the digital footprint that attackers use to build targeted OSINT profiles. And because the threat surface shifts as executives' children age and begin generating their own data trails, the platform monitors continuously -- not just at a single point in time. Pierson also addressed the deepfake threat head-on. BlackCloak re-released its Impersonation Protection feature with deeper capabilities specifically designed for this problem. Plugin-based detection tools for Teams or Zoom leave the most common attack vectors -- phone calls, text messages, WhatsApp, Signal -- completely unaddressed. Impersonation Protection allows members to push a quick identity-verification request through the BlackCloak app to anyone in their trusted circle, regardless of how the original communication arrived. If verification fails, alarm notifications fire to both the CISO and the BlackCloak team. In a world where high-quality deepfake audio and video can be synthesized from publicly available earnings call recordings and media appearances, slowing down to verify through a trusted channel is one of the most reliable defenses available. The conversation closed on the concept of trust -- a word Pierson returned to repeatedly. It is, he said, the reason people choose BlackCloak. The relationships the company builds with CISOs, CSOs, and the executives and families they protect require trust that is built carefully and maintained continuously. As BlackCloak scales, preserving that culture is something Pierson thinks about deeply. For a company whose entire business is built on protecting people in their most personal digital spaces, trust is not just a value. It is the product. This is a Brand Spotlight. A Brand Spotlight is a ~15 minute conversation designed to explore the guest, their company, and what makes their approach unique.

Yitzchak Pierson shares a powerful 30-minute session on overcoming the internal barriers that hold agents back from reaching their full potential. From his journey as a 7th-grade dropout to becoming a successful real estate broker, Yitzchak breaks down the mindset shifts required to grow in both business and life. He dives into common obstacles like self-limiting beliefs, resistance to change, and outdated thinking patterns—challenging agents to step خارج their comfort zone and into the “fear zone” where real growth happens. Yitzchak also introduces practical exercises like reframing fears, writing down goals, and listing personal wins to build confidence and clarity. This episode is a reminder that success starts internally—and that with the right mindset, discipline, and vision, anything is possible.
In dieser Folge gehen Leon und Atze der wohl zerstörerischsten menschlichen Emotion auf den Grund: Hass. Was genau ist Hass – und warum empfinden wir ihn überhaupt, wenn er doch so viel Schaden anrichten kann? Was unterscheidet ihn von Wut oder Verachtung? Und warum hält er oft so lange an und richtet sich nicht selten gegen Menschen, die uns einmal besonders nah waren? Außerdem sprechen die beiden darüber, warum Hass ansteckend sein kann, welche Rolle er in gesellschaftlichen Konflikten spielt und wie er uns manchmal vielleicht sogar helfen kann.

In this powerful session, he breaks down the habits, systems, and standards that helped him achieve over $13 million in annual sales volume and invest hundreds of hours into continuing education.From exceeding client expectations and mastering communication to implementing SMART goals and structured calendar systems, Yitzchak emphasizes discipline, consistency, and small daily improvements. He introduces his “Wheel of Life” framework—balancing purpose, wellness, relationships, and business—and explains why true success comes from aligning all areas of life, not just chasing production.This episode is a blueprint for agents who want to elevate their standards, embrace continuous learning, leverage AI and systems, and commit to becoming 1% better every day.
I brought back Becky Pierson Davidson to compare notes on where community is headed — and we found a few areas of disagreement. Becky works with 6, 7, and 8-figure businesses helping them build memberships and courses through design thinking and customer research, and she's seeing a major shift right now: course businesses are slowing down, and the smart ones are pivoting to membership models. The difference? Shared learning experiences are replacing self-paced education. Community is what people stay for. We dig into the real mechanics: how to set expectations that don't feel like a bait-and-switch, why meaningful engagement isn't what most people think it is, the mastermind paradox (increases retention, decreases forum activity), and why in-person events might be the most important retention lever you're not using. Becky's hot take for 2026: content drops are dying. People don't need more stuff — they need connection and programming that moves them forward.

Part 2 of 2. OA 1230 - Seeing all the obstacles to holding government officials accountable, Congress created Section 1983, allowing citizens to sue for money damages for violations of their civil rights. We cover how that works, the one weird trick it uses to get around state sovereign immunity, and how that accidentally created the infamous qualified immunity doctrine that has made police seemingly unaccountable. We also discuss proposed reforms that might fix issues of qualified and sovereign immunity. 42 U.S.C § 1983 Pierson v Ray, 386 U.S. 547 (1967) Graham v Conner, 490 U.S. 386 (1989) Pearson v Callahan, 555 U.S. 223 (2009) Kisela v Hughes, 584 U.S. 100 (2018) Barnes v Felix, 605 U.S. 73 (2025) Barnes v Felix, 138 Harvard L.
