Mike & Tommy tackle AI-assisted TMDL workflows and the hot reload problem, exploring whether direct file editing with AI tools like Copilot is the future of Power BI development or a recipe for broken models. They weigh the tension between "move logic upstream" best practices and the brutal close-reopen cycle when TMDL changes introduce errors, debating whether Tabular Editor 3, MCP servers, or a native Microsoft solution offers the best path forward for safe, validated bulk refactoring.Get in touch:Send in your questions or topics you want us to discuss by tweeting to @PowerBITips with the hashtag #empMailbag or submit on the PowerBI.tips Podcast Page.Visit PowerBI.tips: https://powerbi.tips/Watch the episodes live every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 730am CST on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/powerbitipsSubscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/230fp78XmHHRXTiYICRLVvSubscribe on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/explicit-measures-podcast/id1568944083‎Check Out Community Jam: https://jam.powerbi.tipsFollow Mike: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelcarlo/Follow Tommy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tommypuglia/

In this mailbag episode, we tackle a common challenge in Power BI report design: filter overload. When 15-20 slicers consume a third of your report page, are you empowering users or overwhelming them? We discuss practical guidelines for slicer design, the difference between "set once" and "frequently changed" filters, strategies for moving your team toward more mature reporting practices, and whether there's ever a justifiable reason to exceed 2-3 slicers per page.Get in touch:Send in your questions or topics you want us to discuss by tweeting to @PowerBITips with the hashtag #empMailbag or submit on the PowerBI.tips Podcast Page.Visit PowerBI.tips: https://powerbi.tips/Watch the episodes live every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 730am CST on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/powerbitipsSubscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/230fp78XmHHRXTiYICRLVvSubscribe on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/explicit-measures-podcast/id1568944083‎Check Out Community Jam: https://jam.powerbi.tipsFollow Mike: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelcarlo/Follow Tommy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tommypuglia/

Today we're talking about how understanding your personality type can help you grow in your relationships. If you're not familiar with this assessment, it's a tool designed to help you better understand your core motivations, emotions, and patterns at a deeper level. It also equips you to connect more intentionally with the people you love — whether that's friends, family, coworkers, or your spouse. That's why I'm so excited to welcome my new friend Meredith Boggs to the show today. Meredith is an expert on this framework and the author of The Journey Home: A Biblical Guide to Using the Enneagram to Deepen Your Faith and Relationships. In this episode, Meredith walks through each personality type, including their core emotions, stress and security patterns, and primary defense mechanisms. She also clarifies what this framework is — and what it's not — and shares how it can be a powerful tool for emotional health, empathy, and discipleship.Suggested Resources:Meredith's book: The Journey Home: A Biblical Guide to Using the Enneagram to Deepen Your Faith and RelationshipsMeredith's podcast: The Other HalfThe Road Back to You: An Enneagram Journey to Self-DiscoverySend me a text!This episode is proudly sponsored by: SizzlefishLet's talk about fueling your body with the best nature has to offer.

In this episode, we tackle a critical gap between Power BI's Field Parameters and Excel's live connection capabilities. Inspired by a mailbag submission from Eivind Haugen, we explore the tension between building semantic models that look great in Power BI reports versus models that serve all consumers—including the often-overlooked Excel power users.We dig into why Field Parameters break the Excel experience, when Calculation Groups might be the better choice, and how to design semantic models that truly serve as a single source of truth across multiple consumption tools. If you're building models that connect to Excel, this conversation will change how you think about feature selection and governance.Get in touch:Send in your questions or topics you want us to discuss by tweeting to @PowerBITips with the hashtag #empMailbag or submit on the PowerBI.tips Podcast Page.Visit PowerBI.tips: https://powerbi.tips/Watch the episodes live every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 730am CST on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/powerbitipsSubscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/230fp78XmHHRXTiYICRLVvSubscribe on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/explicit-measures-podcast/id1568944083‎Check Out Community Jam: https://jam.powerbi.tipsFollow Mike: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelcarlo/Follow Tommy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tommypuglia/

Do hard winters curb garden pests? A listener's question about whether cold weather reduces “bad bugs” leads to a deeper conversation about beneficial insects, biological control, and sustainable pest management. In this episode, Mary Stone shares insights from the NJ Nursery & Landscape Association's Total Pro Expo, exploring why most insects belong in our ecosystems and how predator-prey relationships naturally regulate pest populations. She discusses the importance of native plants, plant diversity, layered landscape design, and nectar-rich flowers in supporting pollinators and beneficial insects. Nature reminds us that harmony grows not from elimination, but from inviting more of what sustains life in our gardens and in our garden of life. Companion Blog Post : Inviting the Beneficial Garden Guests - To Come Thanks for tuning in!Links to Related Podcasts and Posts you'll EnjoyEp 237.

We've built elite athletes. But are we building strong humans? In this episode of WINNERS FIND A WAY, I sit down with Gary Thrapp — youth sports advocate, author, and owner of Beyond The Baseline — to talk about where youth sports is headed… and what it's costing us. This conversation isn't soft. It's real. About Gary Thrapp With over 40 years in youth sports, Gary Thrapp has facilitated more than 50,000 games at his facility in Davenport, Iowa 9a8ef877-a0eb-478f-9c46-23d2842… . He's the owner of Beyond The Baseline, a premier basketball and volleyball event center, and author of The Wild World of Youth Sports. Gary focuses on: Leadership development Character formation Community engagement Creating equitable opportunities for kids He works on the front lines of youth development every single day 9a8ef877-a0eb-478f-9c46-23d2842… . And what he's seeing should get every parent's attention. What We Covered 1️⃣ NIL & The Business of Youth Sports The money conversation isn't going away. But when recruiting replaces development… When metrics replace fundamentals… When ego replaces effort… We have a problem. We talked about: NIL filtering down to youth levels The transfer portal mindset Winning vs. developing Recruiting talent vs. building skill 2️⃣ The Hidden Epidemic: Phones & Attention Gary told a story that hit me hard. A third grader asked him: "Why are you making us work while the adults are staring at their phones?" That's leadership. From a third grader. We discussed: Attention spans collapsing Coaches competing with TikTok Parents missing the moments The competitive edge of focus If you want your child to have an advantage? Put the phone down. 3️⃣ Developing a Success Map Gary's book Developing Your Success Map centers on one powerful idea: Ask kids what matters to them. Not what matters to you. We talked about: Purpose Dreams Monthly and daily goals Asking questions instead of lecturing You don't build resilience by talking at kids. You build it by engaging them. 4️⃣ Character > Highlight Reels You can recruit talent. Or you can develop it. You can chase wins. Or you can build people. The scoreboard isn't the ultimate measure. Character is. Resources Mentioned GaryThrapp.com BeyondTheBaseline.net The Wild World of Youth Sports (Available on Amazon) 9a8ef877-a0eb-478f-9c46-23d2842… Leading Winning Teams (Trent M. Clark)

In this episode, Mike and Tommy explore whether the traditional "Report Developer" role still exists in the age of AI and Microsoft Fabric. They discuss what skills organizations should actually be hiring for, how the role has evolved from pixel-perfect report building to semantic modeling and data architecture, and whether AI tools like Copilot are changing what we expect from BI professionals. The conversation challenges conventional hiring practices and offers practical guidance on future-proofing BI teams.Get in touch:Send in your questions or topics you want us to discuss by tweeting to @PowerBITips with the hashtag #empMailbag or submit on the PowerBI.tips Podcast Page.Visit PowerBI.tips: https://powerbi.tips/Watch the episodes live every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 730am CST on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/powerbitipsSubscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/230fp78XmHHRXTiYICRLVvSubscribe on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/explicit-measures-podcast/id1568944083‎Check Out Community Jam: https://jam.powerbi.tipsFollow Mike: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelcarlo/Follow Tommy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tommypuglia/

In today's episode, I'm excited to welcome back my wonderful friend Stephanie May Wilson to talk about her new book, Create a Life You Love—and this conversation couldn't have come at a better time. We unpack why “one right answer” is often a myth and how to make big decisions without feeling like you're about to ruin your life. Stephanie shares how to tell the difference between a closed door and normal fear, how to build a wise “cabinet” (because not everyone gets a vote on your life), and why confidence is really about trusting yourself to pivot when things don't go as planned. We also talk about navigating big transitions—marriage, motherhood, moving to Spain—and what it looks like to stop living in the future and fully invest in the season you're in, even without perfect clarity. If you're at a crossroads or afraid of getting it wrong, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

I'm so excited to throw it back to one of my favorite and most encouraging episodes with my friend Nicole Zasowski — a Marriage & Family Therapist and the author of What If It's Wonderful?, From Lost to Found, and Daring Joy.In this conversation, we talk about why joy can feel so vulnerable, why our minds often jump to worst-case scenarios, and how to find the courage to fully receive the good in our lives instead of bracing for what might go wrong. So many of us feel safer preparing for disappointment than letting ourselves experience joy — but that habit quietly steals the very moments we're longing for. Nicole shares powerful insights and practical tools to help us shift our perspective, calm our thoughts, and truly celebrate both the small and big moments that make life meaningful.Suggested Resources: Nicole E.

Today's episode is a little different. There's no outline, no clear agenda — just a conversation where my friend Jim Mann and I are shooting from the hip. He has quite the background: longtime (low-key famous) radio host, cancer survivor, and one of the funniest people I know. Jim is the reason I moved to Greenville.

She explores how trees support mental and emotional well-being, the realities behind tree-planting campaigns, and the value of nurturing growth over time. A flashback to a fallen Eastern Hemlock and a thriving young beech offers a gentle reminder that even after loss, new life emerges.

Do you find yourself constantly replaying past events—or feeling like your mind is in a state of chaos?  In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Caroline Leaf, PhD to explore why anxiety, overwhelm, and intrusive thought patterns aren't signs that something is broken—but signals of how the mind is responding to stress, experiences, and unresolved patterns. We break down what thoughts actually are, how experiences are wired into “thought networks,” and why the mind controls the brain—not the other way around. Dr. Leaf also explains how it's possible to redesign a memory—not by erasing the past, but by changing how it's wired and how it shows up in the present.Suggested Resources:Cleaning Up the Mental Mess PodcastDr. Caroline Leaf | WebsiteDr. Caroline Leaf | FacebookCaroline Leaf | TwitterDr. Caroline Leaf | InstagramDr. Caroline Leaf | YouTubeSwitch on Your BrainHelp in a HurrySend me a text!This episode is proudly sponsored by: Weddell WaterWe focus on the water we drink, but the water you shower with matters too—your skin absorbs more than you think, which is why I use the Weddell Water Duo Shower Filter, the only NSF-certified option that targets chlorine, PFAS, and hard-water buildup.

Lindsay Etemadipour was among the very first wellness content creators I followed when I started WellnStrong's Instagram, and she's been in the wellness space curating content as a holistic herbalist for over ten years. Having grappled with an array of autoimmune diseases and chronic conditions spanning two decades, Lindsay spent years in and out of doctors' offices, finding no relief. Her experience led her to pursue alternative modalities and discover the power of herbalism. Lindsay's passion led to her founding Symbi, a loose-leaf tea brand providing ancient remedies for modern ailments. In this episode, Lindsay and I discuss the value of holistic treatments in addressing chronic illness, why herbal remedies can be effective tools in treating a variety of disorders – from autoimmunity to hormonal imbalances, how to select quality herbs, and how Lindsay began creating her own herbal blends to help restore her health.Suggested Resources:Connect with her | Instagram | TikTok | PinterestLindsay's herbal brand, Drink Symbi | Instagram | TikTok Milk thistle for liver ailmentsHerbal remedies for anxietyHerbs by Body System ChartSend me a text!This episode is proudly sponsored by: SizzlefishLet's talk about fueling your body with the best nature has to offer.

What if the very thing you thought was your weakness… was actually your greatest weapon? In this powerful conversation, Trent sits down with Matthew Cox — entrepreneur, healthcare leader, author of The Courage to Learn Differently, and one of the sharpest minds in company acceleration. Matthew opens the door to his childhood experiences with learning disabilities and how he transformed those challenges into a genuine superpower in leadership, communication, and culture-building. From decoding struggles to public speaking stages, from healthcare systems to scaling companies, Matthew brings a raw, honest look at what leaders get wrong — and what they must get right — to grow past their ceilings. Together, Trent and Matthew break down: Why leaders become their own bottleneck How systems (not heroics) scale organizations The hidden cost of wearing all the hats Coaching, humility & stripping away ego Continuous learning in a noisy, AI-driven world Why great companies collapse without behavior alignment How Bloom software shifts a company from chaos to clarity Reps, communication, and the reality of high-performance execution This is a masterclass in leadership behavior, operational discipline, and the courage to learn differently. Key Themes Leadership is behavior, not title Systems drive growth — emotions destroy it Letting go of hats to build a real organization The power of coachability & humility Turning disabilities into competitive advantages The danger of advice from unqualified voices Communication: the true separator The CEO's loneliness and the need for trusted guides Bloom Growth as the "air traffic control" system for business About the Guest Matthew Cox is a seasoned entrepreneur, healthcare expert, author, and company accelerator helping leaders scale from chaos to clarity. Despite growing up with learning disabilities, Matthew built and exited multiple companies, became a high-level speaker, and co-authored The Courage to Learn Differently. His mission: help organizations adopt the systems and leadership behaviors that drive real, sustainable growth.
