    A few patterns keep showing up in conversations with leaders and business owners: 1- The list everyone's avoiding A lot of people updated their holiday card list… …and realized there are a lot of people they haven't spoken to in months (or years). Action: -Make a master list of everyone you haven't connected with in the last 3, 6, 12, or 24 months — Pick up the phone and call them in January. 2- Planning is happening. Execution is pausing. January is already here. Waiting for the "right time" to ask for meetings or business slows momentum. Plan — yes. But leadership shows up in execution. 3- Social media is a multiplier, not a nice-to-have Your clients are on these platforms. If you're posting occasionally, generically, or waiting to be perfect — you're being forgotten. Be consistent. Be visible. Be you. Comment. Engage. Share perspective. Top of mind wins. 4- Don't run from AI — run toward it You don't need hours a day. Start with 1–5 minutes daily learning how to use it to think, write, and lead better.

    What if the greatest change you could make in your financial life didn't start with budgeting, investing, or earning more—but with surrender? We don't usually think of surrender as a financial word. Yet Scripture places it at the center of faithful stewardship. The life-changing truth that God owns everything reshapes how we live, give, and manage what we've been entrusted. The First Question Scripture Asks About Money When we talk about finances, we tend to ask familiar questions: How much do I have? How much do I need? Am I doing well? They're natural questions—but they're not the first question Scripture asks. From the beginning, the Bible establishes that God is the owner. Before humanity ever managed a garden or named a creature, God formed, filled, and ruled creation. Psalm 24:1 declares it plainly: “The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof.” Simply put, God is the owner—and we are the stewards. For many of us, that's a familiar idea. But familiarity doesn't always lead to surrender. We may affirm God's ownership in theory while living as if everything depends on our effort. We say, “I worked for this,” or “I earned this.” Yet Scripture adds an essential truth: “It is He who gives you power to get wealth” (Deuteronomy 8:18). Even our ability to work is a gift from God. Faithfulness, Not Outcomes Jesus reinforces this perspective in the parable of the talents (Matthew 25:14–30). A master entrusts resources to three servants. Two invest faithfully. One buries what he's been given out of fear. When the master returns, he doesn't praise them for increasing his net worth—he commends their faithfulness. That distinction matters. The world measures success by outcomes. God measures success by trust and faithfulness. If God owns everything, then we are not owners—we are managers. Scripture uses the term oikonomos, meaning household manager: someone who manages resources they didn't create, for purposes they didn't define, under a master they serve. At first, that may sound restrictive. In reality, it's freeing. If I'm not the owner, then I'm not the ultimate provider or protector. The weight shifts from my shoulders to God's. As Ron Blue often says, “If God owns it all, you can't lose anything.” Ownership carries pressure. Stewardship carries trust. Everyday Decisions Become Worship When we truly embrace stewardship, ordinary financial decisions take on spiritual meaning. Budgeting becomes aligning our desires with God's priorities. Giving becomes a response to His generosity. Planning becomes obedience rather than anxiety. Investing becomes multiplying what belongs to the Lord, not securing independence from Him. The Puritan preacher Thomas Watson once wrote, “What we keep we may lose. What we give to God is kept forever.” Paul echoes this in 1 Timothy 6:7: “We brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.” That reality isn't meant to discourage us—it's meant to liberate us. When we stop clinging to what we cannot keep, we're free to invest in what we can never lose. What Does God Expect From Us? If God owns everything, what does He ask of us? Jesus answers simply: “One who is faithful in very little is also faithful in much” (Luke 16:10). Faithfulness isn't about the size of what we manage—it's about surrender. And surrender always begins in the heart. When we embrace God's ownership, two gifts follow: Humility—we stop boasting in what we've accomplished. Hope—we realize we're not carrying the burden alone. God equips, guides, and provides. Where Is God Inviting You to Surrender? Where might God be inviting you to shift from being an owner to a steward? In your giving? Your planning? Your savings or lifestyle? Or in the quiet belief that your security depends more on markets than on the God who “owns the cattle on a thousand hills” (Psalm 50:10)? Stewardship isn't about God getting something from you. It's about God doing something in you. It reorders the heart so money takes its proper place—not as a master, but as a tool. If this idea resonates with you—that God owns it all and stewardship begins with surrender—I invite you to explore it further in Our Ultimate Treasure: A 21-Day Journey to Faithful Stewardship.

    Daniel Chamberlain and Coach Kenny Simpson open with February coaching updates, including state conventions, the coaching carousel, and clinic season, and discuss the difference between social/job-networking clinics and scheme-intensive clinics. They share an Abraham Lincoln discipline quote and relate it to the GWAT 100 February mileage challenge. Kenny promotes his books (Complete Guide to Buck Sweep from the Shotgun and O-10 to 10-0), the Gun-T system update (7.0), and the move of Gun-T resources to gunteesystem.com, then lists upcoming Gun-T clinics (Sacramento, Houston, Ohio, Boston, and a newly added Tampa clinic March 20–21). Daniel promotes the 4-2-5 Defense Clinic in Boston (March 13–14), possible Naples, Florida dates, speakers including Brady Bradbury and a Massachusetts state-championship coach host, and notes early-bird pricing and hotel deadlines. The main topic is in-game adjustments: defining them as planned, built-in counters to unexpected looks or opponent changes (personnel, fronts, coverages, or targeted matchups), not desperation play-calling. They emphasize preparing adjustments in the offseason, keeping a small, concept-based system with tags, practicing answers during the week, assigning coaches specific “eyes” (front, back end, formations, fits), and communicating clearly between drives and at halftime, with great coaches adjusting in real time. Examples include flood-and-go, pop pass, false pulls, and formation changes when opponents struggle to align. They discuss evaluating adjustment ability (between drives vs halftime vs “we'll fix it next week”), and the importance of writing down halftime plans. A “situation of the week” covers facing an unexpected bear front after preparing for two-high; Kenny explains abandoning dead scripted calls, using numbers/space and built-in tools, and coordinating quick conversations with line and QB coaches to adjust run game, protections, and pass/RPO answers before the next series.

    Summary: What if work didn't have to feel exhausting, overwhelming, or misaligned with who you are? In this powerful episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I sit down with executive coach and HR consultant Lindsey Barnett, author of Working Hell to Working Well, to explore how individuals and organizations can transform the workplace experience. In a world where burnout feels commonplace and "busy" has become a badge of honor, what if we paused long enough to ask: Does work have to feel this hard? Designing the Workplace of Tomorrow, Today In a recent episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I had the pleasure of speaking with Lindsey Barnett—executive coach, HR consultant, and author of Working Hell to Working Well. Lindsey's journey from anthropology student to organizational change leader offers a fresh and deeply human lens on how we can transform our workplaces—and ourselves. As someone who often describes myself as a corporate anthropologist, I was delighted to discover Lindsey once used that same phrase. Her academic roots in anthropology and organizational behavior shaped her understanding that companies are, in many ways, small-scale societies. They have rituals, hierarchies, insiders and outsiders, power dynamics, and shared myths. When conflict arises at work, it is rarely just about tasks—it's about people navigating culture. Lindsey Barnett was Finding Her Through Line Lindsey's path was anything but linear. She began studying archaeology, fascinated by the lives of people long gone. But as research leaders increasingly asked her to help with team dynamics, she realized her gifts were better used with the living. She moved into advertising, then human resources, always following a deeper curiosity about human behavior. Later, when her family relocated to Australia, she experienced a powerful shift. As a working mother who suddenly was not working, she confronted a loss of identity. That moment became pivotal. Through reflection, Lindsey identified what she calls her "Three I's"—the core needs she must meet to feel fulfilled in her work: Intellectual challenge Impact Interaction Once she named them, she saw that these needs could be met in multiple ways. Writing children's books, forming a writers' group, and returning to organizational development were not disconnected moves. They were creative responses to those core needs. There is a powerful lesson here: when you understand what truly energizes you, your options expand dramatically. The Workplace Stalemate In Working Hell to Working Well, Lindsey addresses a tension many of us recognize. Leaders often say, "You are responsible for your own wellbeing." Employees respond, "How can I manage my wellbeing when expectations and workloads are out of control?" The result? A stalemate. Lindsey's approach is pragmatic. Don't wait for the other side to change. Start with what you can control. Model healthier behaviors. Create safety through example. When leaders visibly leave work to attend a child's event—or even "leave loudly," as one leader she interviewed described—something shifts. Turning off the lights, closing the laptop, and saying goodbye intentionally signals permission. Culture changes through what is normalized. The Three P's: A Practical Framework for Working Well For those who want tools, Lindsey offers a memorable framework: Planning, Pacing, and Playing. Planning doesn't require a 30-page strategy document. It can be as simple as choosing one intentional action—like buying a larger water bottle to improve hydration. Small commitments, consistently executed, compound into meaningful change. Pacing involves awareness. Are you rushing blindly toward tasks? Are you collaborating across silos or duplicating effort? Slowing down just enough to ask better questions can unlock faster progress. Playing introduces experimentation and curiosity. Whether you call it "play" or a "pilot project," approaching change with a spirit of experimentation reduces fear of failure. Play fuels innovation. These aren't abstract concepts. They are immediately actionable. Charging Your Energy Battery Beyond productivity, Lindsey speaks about energy. Traditional advice focuses on sleep, diet, and exercise. While important, she expands the conversation into three types of energy that recharge us: Creative Energy: Designing, building, imagining. Creativity restores vitality. Connection Energy: Relationships, purpose, time in nature, or alignment with mission. Completion Energy: Finishing something—even something small. Making the bed or folding laundry can provide a tangible sense of accomplishment that renews motivation. During the pandemic, some executives criticized employees for doing laundry at home. Lindsey reframes this. Completion energy matters. Small wins sustain momentum. As anthropologists of work, we must ask: what assumptions are we carrying about productivity that no longer serve us? The Power of the Pause When asked to share her top advice, Lindsey emphasized one simple but profound practice: pause. In a culture obsessed with output, pausing can feel counterintuitive. Yet it is in the pause that we ask: Do I need to be doing this? Is there a better way? What does my body need right now? Who else should be involved? The pause creates space for intention. And intention drives sustainable change. Role Modeling Change Culture does not shift because of policies alone. It shifts because people see others behaving differently and feel safe to do the same. Whether it's taking a midday walk, setting boundaries around meetings, or openly prioritizing family, visible modeling invites replication. As Lindsey shared, we don't have to wait for permission to begin. From Observation to Innovation What I appreciate most about Lindsey's work is its grounded optimism. She does not deny that workplaces can feel like "working hell." But she believes transformation is possible—through small actions, mindful energy management, and courageous modeling. As you reflect on your own work life, consider: What are your core needs? Where could you plan one small shift? What might you pace differently? How could you introduce more play? And perhaps most importantly: when will you pause? If we are willing to observe our own habits with anthropological curiosity, we can turn those observations into innovations. That is how we move—from working hell to working well. To learn more about Lindsey Barnett and her book, visit your favorite bookseller or connect with her on LinkedIn.

Rubin frames AI as a capital allocation exercise governed centrally to prevent tool sprawl.

Jallow cautions against fragmented “spaghetti AI,” advocating for platform coherence and skill development. Together, they reveal that AI success in FP&A depends less on speed and more on governance, architecture, and trust in the planning process.

The guys dive into the education system and why more parents are turning to homeschooling, the chaos surrounding voter ID and fake IDs in a tech-driven world, and New York's snow shoveling debacle as a case study in government incompetence.They also tackle the Epstein list fallout, growing distrust in federal agencies, questions surrounding Iran and weapons of mass destruction, immigration enforcement, and internal Republican Party divisions heading into the midterms. From border security to inflation messaging, the hosts argue it's time for clarity, accountability, and a serious course correction before voters head back to the polls.(00:02:25) Patriotic American Athletes Triumphing with Gold Medals(00:08:45) Benefit of Homeschooling for Children's Education(00:14:59) Tech advancements fuel increasing sophistication in fake IDs(00:17:20) Efficiency and Planning in Snow Shoveling(00:23:16) Implications of Being on Epstein's List(00:26:31) Manipulation and Intrigue by Intelligence Agencies(00:30:38) Debating Iran's Nuclear Capabilities and Transparency(00:37:55) Enhanced Driver's Licenses for Immigration Control(00:38:51) Republican Party Disunity: MAGA Faction Chaos

    What if the reason you feel disappointed after reaching a goal… isn't failure — but lack of preparation? In this episode of The Millionaire Woman Show, Debra Kasowski explores why so many high achievers experience an emotional letdown after finally accomplishing what they worked so hard for. From income milestones to leadership promotions to personal breakthroughs, success can feel surprisingly empty when we haven't prepared ourselves to sustain it. Debra unpacks the concept known as the “arrival fallacy,” popularized by positive psychology expert Tal Ben-Shahar, the belief that happiness lies at the finish line. You'll discover: Why achievement without identity growth leads to dissatisfaction The three layers of preparation: mental, strategic, and emotional How to build consistency that creates self-trust Practical strategies to prepare for the opportunities you say you want Why celebration and reflection are essential to sustainable success Preparation isn't just about planning logistics. It's about becoming the person who can hold the next level. If you desire greater impact, income, influence, or legacy — this episode will challenge you to stop waiting and start preparing. Because when your opportunity arrives…you don't want to meet it overwhelmed. You want to meet it ready.

I'm sharing everything, from the start of my labour and how I knew labour was starting, to one of the most powerful moments of my life - catching my own baby in the hospital's birth tub and meeting my baby for the first time. I used the principles of hypnobirthing, mindset, and listened to many empowering, positive birth stories (like this one!) to prepare. Listening to positive birth stories is SO helpful when you're expecting. It's one of those productive things you can do in pregnancy to prepare for birth, and show your mind what's really possible. I'm so grateful for the women who've gone before me and helped me see that positive birth experiences are not only possible - but were a possibility for me. And if it's possible for me, why not YOU?! In this episode I break down: My whole unfiltered birth story, from start to finish The mindset shifts that helped me most during labour And the single most powerful moment of my life that existed - up until that point.

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 24, 2026 26:25


    Today we are talking about approaching one thing you do in a new way… that will positively benefit your life in lots of ways. It's the way you plan your meals.  It's the shift of thinking about food or meals when you start to feel hungry or when it's about time to eat… to thinking about meals ahead of time.. sometimes a few hours and other times a few days before.  It's actually EASIER than doing it last minute because you can plan for a few meals at once rather than each meal like a fire drill when its time to eat… it can be cheaper because you aren't having everything delivered and it's way healthier because we know home cooked meals if done right, are usually the best for you. We all know we're going to eat today.  We know roughly when we're going to eat today. So it doesn't make sense to deal with it at the last minute…. when you're starving, and stressed to get something going and often end up eating much later than you want to. This episode isn't about telling you what to eat.  Because of course, do what you want. It's a really helpful chat I think about how to think differently about eating so you stay aligned with your goals, your health, your energy… and honestly your peace of mind. ***The Problem Isn't Cravings… It's Lack of Planning*** Most people think they "fell off" because of willpower. But most of the time? It's not cravings.  It's not discipline. It's poor planning. You didn't think about lunch…  You didn't prep dinner…  You showed up somewhere starving… and suddenly you're stuck with whatever options exist. And then you feel frustrated… not because you wanted that food… but because you didn't plan ahead. When you change the way you think about meals… everything shifts. *** The Mindset Shift… Always Be Thinking One Meal Ahead*** Always be thinking about your next meal before you need it. Not obsessively… just intentionally. Ask yourself: • What am I eating next?  • Where will I be?  • Will there be options I actually want?  • Do I need to prep something or bring something? This one shift removes: last-minute stress  decision fatigue  random eating you regret  overspending on delivery You stop reacting… and start operating on purpose. ***My Personal Food Philosophy (Without Telling You How To Eat)*** For me personally, I eat very specifically because that's when I feel my best. Mostly single-ingredient foods…  Organic fruits and vegetables…  Grass-fed meats…  Organic eggs… raw cheese… rice… pasta… chicken… High protein, lower carbs… zero refined sugar… minimal processed ingredients. Kind of carnivore-ish with fruits, honey, berries, dates — foods that actually fuel me. But listen… this podcast is not about copying how I eat. You should eat in a way that makes you feel energized and aligned. The real takeaway is this: Whatever your style is… planning ahead protects it. ***Tactical Strategies That Make This Easy*** 1. Cook Once, Eat Twice  Dinner isn't just dinner… it's tomorrow's lunch.  Make extra on purpose.  Future you will be grateful when lunch is already solved. 2. Pre-Decide Your "Default Meals"  Have a short list of meals you rotate.  Less thinking… more consistency.  Decision fatigue disappears when meals become automatic. 3. Think About Your Schedule Like a Food Map  Look at your day and ask: Am I driving somewhere long?  Am I going somewhere with limited options?  Do I need snacks?  Should I eat before I go? Planning food is really just planning logistics. 4. Bring Food Without Making It Complicated  A cooler bag… simple containers… prepped proteins… fruit… dates…  Not fancy.  Just intentional. 5. Make Eating Out an Event — Not a Reaction  For me, eating out is something I enjoy intentionally.  Not something I fall into because I didn't think ahead. That small mindset shift changes your relationship with food entirely. ***The Hidden Benefits Nobody Talks About*** Planning meals ahead doesn't just change what you eat… It changes your whole day. You save time.  You save money.  You avoid DoorDash panic orders.  You reduce mental clutter.  You feel calmer because decisions are already made. And honestly… You feel proud of yourself because your actions match your goals. ***The Bigger Picture*** This isn't really about food. It's about living intentionally. When you plan your meals… you're saying: "I'm not leaving my health up to chance." You're not reacting to hunger… you're designing your life. And that energy spills into everything else: Your workouts.  Your focus.  Your confidence. Look at your day the night before!  Think about what meals you (and your family if you have one) will eat the next day.  It changes how it all goes!! This one shift might sound small… But it completely changes how you show up in your body and your life. And that's awesome!!

Barry shares how he built and monetized a content brand rooted in sports, community, and veteran identity. We break down how Facebook monetization actually works, how he generates revenue from memes and engagement, and why most creators quit before the real results show up. Barry is not just attending Military Creator Con. He's a featured speaker, sharing lessons from a decade of content discipline, audience building, and platform monetization. As a veteran creator, he represents what's possible when you combine consistency, niche focus, and community-first thinking.  We also discuss: • How Barry monetized Facebook and built recurring revenue • Turning passion into a sustainable content business • Why veterans have an advantage in discipline and execution • Planning content like a long-term brand, not a viral gamble • The psychology of algorithms and audience loyalty • Dealing with critics and staying consistent • Why niche audiences outperform broad appeal • What he'll be sharing on stage at Military Creator Con Barry proves you don't need a studio setup to win. You need focus, repetition, and the willingness to show up for years.

In this episode of Money Magnet Mama, I'm breaking down the sneakiest form of procrastination I see in online businesses- the kind that looks productive on the surface but keeps you from actually selling, launching, and moving forward.

Inside this episode, we talk about: The three most common procrastination patterns for entrepreneurs Why over-planning, content creation, and “learning mode” can keep you stuck The difference between being strategically stuck vs energetically stuck How white space creates clarity, alignment, and creative breakthroughs Why selling first builds confidence faster than perfecting your strategy How to stop strategy hopping and simplify your next steps The mindset shift that helps you move through resistance instead of avoiding it This episode is a reminder that there's nothing wrong with you, and that momentum doesn't come from doing more, but from doing the right things in the right order.

    The 5 Biggest RMD Mistakes in Retirement

    Retirement Revealed

    Jeremy Keil explains the 5 RMD (Required Minimum Distribution) mistakes in Retirement and how to avoid them. A retiree recently called for help. It was their first year taking Required Minimum Distributions. They had delayed their first RMD until April of the following year — which meant taking two distributions in one tax year. That part was allowed. In some cases, it can even be strategic. But when they called their IRA custodian and asked, “How much should I withhold for taxes?” they were given the default answer: 10% federal withholding. They assumed that must be right. It wasn't. They ended up short on taxes by more than $10,000 — and owed penalties on top of that. That situation wasn't caused by breaking a rule. It was caused by following the rule without a plan. And that's where most RMD mistakes begin. I recently wrote an article for Kiplinger magazine titled “5 RMD Mistakes That Could Cost You Big-Time: Even Seasoned Retirees Slip Up” and for this week's episode of the “Retire Today” podcast I decided to talk through each of these mistakes in detail. Mistake #1: Waiting Until Age 73 to Create a Plan Turning 73 is not a strategy. If you wait until the government forces your first RMD to think about it, you've already missed years of opportunity. The window between retirement and RMD age is often the most flexible tax-planning period of your life. In those years, you may have: Lower earned income No required withdrawals yet Control over when and how you take distributions That's prime territory for intentional tax planning. Once RMDs begin, you've lost some flexibility. In the KEEP step of the Retirement Master Plan, tax timing matters. RMDs don't happen in isolation. They interact with Social Security, pensions, and brokerage income. Planning ahead—sometimes a decade ahead—can dramatically change the long-term outcome. Mistake #2: Failing to Make Use of Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) This one surprises me every year. RMDs currently begin at age 73 (moving to 75 for those born in 1960 or later). But Qualified Charitable Distributions still start at 70½. That means you can send money directly from your IRA to a charity before RMDs even begin. Why does that matter? Because a QCD: Reduces your IRA balance (lowering future RMDs) Keeps the distribution out of your taxable income May help limit Social Security taxation May help reduce Medicare premium surcharges Many retirees continue writing checks to charities from their checking account, hoping for a deduction. With today's larger standard deduction, many people don't itemize at all. Going directly from IRA to charity is often more tax-efficient—and sometimes dramatically so. If charitable giving is already part of your plan, the tax strategy should be part of it too. Mistake #3: Doing the Wrong Tax Withholding When retirees call their custodian to take their RMD, they're often asked: “How much would you like withheld for taxes?” The default federal withholding is often 10% for IRAs and 20% for 401(k)s. Many people assume, “That must be right.” It often isn't. I recently saw a retiree who delayed their first RMD until April of the following year—which meant taking two distributions in one year. They defaulted to 10% withholding. They ended up underpaying taxes by more than $10,000 and owed penalties. The custodian can't provide tax planning. That's not their role. Before taking an RMD, you need to project: What tax bracket you'll land in Whether additional withholding is necessary How this affects your overall estimated payments Again, this falls under the KEEP step. Don't let the default settings dictate your tax bill. Mistake #4: Not Realizing How Your RMD Income Affects the Rest of Your Tax Return RMDs don't just increase taxable income. They can: Make more of your Social Security taxable Push capital gains from 0% into taxable territory Trigger Medicare IRMAA surcharges Many retirees focus only on their marginal bracket. But the real issue is tax cost, not tax bracket. An extra $20,000 RMD might not just be taxed at 22%. It could cascade into additional taxation elsewhere. That's why projections matter. You don't want to discover these ripple effects after the fact. Mistake #5: Forgetting That the M in RMD means ‘Minimum,' not ‘Maximum' The M in RMD stands for minimum. It does not mean that's the only amount you're allowed to withdraw. You can: Withdraw more than your RMD Complete Roth conversions after satisfying the RMD Send more than your RMD amount to charity (subject to QCD limits) Sometimes taking more than the minimum makes sense—especially if it smooths taxes over multiple years. RMDs are a rule. They are not a retirement strategy. The Bigger Lesson RMDs are not just a government requirement. They are a planning opportunity—or a planning hazard. They affect your income plan (MAKE), your spending plan (SPEND), your tax strategy (KEEP), and even what you ultimately LEAVE behind. The biggest mistake isn't misunderstanding a rule. It's treating RMDs as an isolated event instead of part of a coordinated retirement master plan. Because in retirement, small tax decisions compound just like investment returns may do. And when handled intentionally, RMDs don't have to derail anything at all. Don't forget to leave a rating for the “Retire Today” podcast if you've been enjoying these episodes!

Were going back for more conversations from the show. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. TimberTech – Real wood beauty without the upkeep CEDIA (Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association) is the global trade association for home technology professionals, specializing in smart home, automation, audio-visual, networking, and integrated systems. Its mission is to advance the home technology industry through education, certification, advocacy, and networking. Members include integrators, designers, manufacturers, and consultants who shape the connected environments we live and work in. CEDIA Expo is the industry's largest annual event for residential technology professionals. With hundreds of exhibitors, educational sessions, live demos, and global networking opportunities, it's where new ideas and innovations in smart home and AV integration take center stage. The Commercial Integrator Expo (CIX), co-located with CEDIA Expo, focuses on commercial integration technologies—from conferencing and IT infrastructure to building automation and emerging AV solutions—bringing together commercial integrators, IT pros, designers, and tech managers. Jason McGraw | Group VP and Show Director, CEDIA Expo / CIX Scope of the Show: McGraw details the scale of CEDIA Expo 2025, featuring over 350 exhibitors and immersive demo rooms that showcase integrated audio, video, and control systems. Integration Meets Design: Discussion centers on the critical partnership between integrators and the design-build community (interior designers, architects, builders). McGraw emphasizes that technology—ranging from AI and energy management to lighting—must be a foundational element of the design process, not an afterthought. The Business Case: Designers are encouraged to view integrators as essential trade partners, similar to electricians or plumbers, to better service clients and protect home networks. Dale Sandberg | Product Manager for Electronics, Sonance Aesthetic Performance: Sandberg discusses Sonance's philosophy that sound should support the design of a space rather than dominate it. The focus is on blending high-fidelity performance with discreet aesthetics. New Innovations: Highlights include the compact UA Series amplifiers designed to fit behind displays or in tight spaces, and the integration of professional-grade Blaze Audio amplifiers into the Sonance family. Outdoor Living: The conversation covers the growing trend of outdoor entertainment, where amplifiers and speakers are used to create immersive environments in backyards and outdoor kitchens. Jim Garrett | Senior Director of Product Strategy, Harman Luxury Audio Group Hidden Technology: Garrett addresses the challenge of eliminating “wall acne” through invisible speakers and design-integrated solutions that do not compromise acoustic performance. Pandemic Influence: The discussion explores how the pandemic shifted focus toward outdoor living and unconventional entertainment spaces, including garages and multi-generational gaming setups. Brand Portfolio: Insights into the product strategies for Harman's luxury brands—JBL, Revel, Mark Levinson, and JBL Synthesis—and the importance of gathering direct feedback from integrators to drive R&D.

Outdoor applications via weather-rated cases. Design & Integration Perspective Compact electronics give designers freedom to hide gear while maintaining performance. Balancing performance and aesthetics: sound follows the design, not the other way around. Example: background music at parties that fills space without overwhelming conversation. Outdoor living trend: amplifiers and speakers enabling outdoor kitchens, theaters, and entertainment spaces. Company Ethos & Philosophy Mission: deliver complete audio solutions—amplification, processing, and speakers. Philosophy: the sonic experience should support the aesthetic experience of a home or space. Growth vision: expand residential dominance while building commercial presence.
