What if managing a 300-unit apartment complex was more like running a multimillion dollar business than simply collecting rent? In this episode of REady2Scale, Jeannette Friedrich is joined by Kayla Maack, Senior Asset Manager at Blue Lake Capital, to unpack the reality behind asset management in multifamily real estate. From fostering resident relationships to avoiding costly renovation pitfalls, Kayla brings a wealth of experience and unfiltered insight into the systems, leadership, and mindset that separate average operators from great ones. Key Takeaways: - Beyond Rent Collection: Discover the complex daily operations required to manage multifamily assets and how even small inefficiencies can have significant financial consequences. - Resident Retention Through Human Connection: Learn how consistent, compassionate communication with residents can reduce turnover and build long-term trust, even in a tech-driven environment. - The “CEO” Mindset: Understand why on-site managers should think of themselves as CEOs of multimillion dollar businesses and how that shift impacts property performance. - Leadership as Leverage: Explore how thoughtful leadership and team motivation directly translate into better resident experiences and stronger returns. - Avoiding Renovation Pitfalls: Hear how renovation tracking systems, especially those that measure cost and ROI by unit, can help prevent project delays and budget overruns. - When Management Changes Lives: Kayla shares a powerful story of how one small act of thoughtfulness changed the trajectory for a resident in crisis.

On today's episode, Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler McBrien sits down with Lindsay Freeman, Director of Technology, Law & Policy at the Human Rights Center, UC Berkeley School of Law, to discuss her recent Lawfare article, “War Crimes for Fun and Profit.” They talk about how and why so-called war influencers linked to private military companies such as the Wagner Group in the Sahel are posting “conflict content” online. They also address why this graphic and gory content, which often amounts to self-incriminating evidence of war crimes, has led to so little accountability. And finally, they discuss efforts to close that impunity gap, including an Article 15 submission that Freeman and her team at the Human Rights Center sent to the International Criminal Court last fall.

Special Guest: Heidi DeCoux Visit my website: cashflowy.ai   Welcome back to The Profits Unleashed Podcast — the show where we empower coaches, consultants, and entrepreneurs to unlock next-level business growth through the power of podcasting and smart strategy. In today's episode, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with the brilliant Heidi DeCoux — serial entrepreneur, financial systems strategist, and founder of Cashflowy.ai. Known as The Optimizer, Heidi has helped tens of thousands of business owners streamline, scale, and systemize their operations — and she's now on a mission to put money (and time!) back in solopreneurs' pockets. Heidi shares her 24-year journey building and selling four successful businesses — three with profit margins over 50%, and one with a 7-figure exit. Now, she's turning that experience into a user-friendly, AI-powered financial tool designed exclusively for solopreneurs like us. What stood out to me is how Cashflowy.ai automates everything from bookkeeping to KPI tracking in under an hour a month. It's like having a 24/7 bookkeeper in your pocket, minus the confusion, delays, or massive fees. In just 15 minutes, you can link your accounts and get clarity on what's working in your business — and what's draining your resources. If you've been wearing too many hats or wondering why the money coming in doesn't match what you take home, this episode will open your eyes.

Tom Lennon tells us he's not working that hard on the unbelievably large number of projects he never stops working on. From writing movies (including a “HALL OF PRESIDENTS” SciFi comedy) to acting in 100s of shows to playing in a Smiths tribute band Thomas Lennon doesn't stop. And don't try to stop him. Bio:  Thomas Lennon is an actor, producer and New York Times Best Selling author from Oak Park, Illinois. He attended the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University, where he was a member of the influential sketch comedy group The State. The State's hit television series ran on MTV for three seasons and received an Ace Award nomination for Best Comedy Series.  After his work on The State, he created two more popular series: Viva Variety and Reno 911!, on which he also played Lieutenant Jim Dangle. Lennon has also written numerous feature films, including Night at the Museum, Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, Reno 911!: Miami, The Pacifier, Balls of Fury and Hell Baby. In addition to writing films, Lennon co-authored, Writing Movies for Fun and Profit, a book about the studio system that Anna Kendrick called, “The Best Book about Hollywood… Hilarious and insanely accurate,” in the New York Times.

Welcome to another insightful episode of Build a Better Agency! This week, host Drew McLellan tackles a topic that agency owners and leaders wrestle with time and again: the true role of project management within an agency, and how getting it right can transform both your workflow and your bottom line. Drew is joined by expert consultant Rachel Gertz, who has spent over 15 years helping agencies demystify project management, build stronger systems, and create operational success. In this episode, Drew and Rachel dig deep into what project management really means in a modern agency setting, beyond just moving tasks from A to B or managing a checklist. Rachel shares her journey from educator to operations consultant, revealing why constraints and structure, when thoughtfully implemented, actually unleash greater creative freedom for agency teams. Together, they explore why so many agencies struggle with the sales-to-delivery handoff, how process breakdowns lead to burnout and missed profits, and what a healthy, efficient system should feel like for everyone involved. Listeners will walk away with actionable advice on rethinking their approach to project scoping, discovering the hidden pitfalls of underestimating the “soft” operational work, and why tools alone can't fix a broken process. Rachel offers practical steps for evaluating where the real chaos lives in your agency, how to break the cycle of “garbage in, garbage out,” and the importance of prioritizing client relationship dynamics alongside deliverable deadlines.  If you're ready to move past reactionary chaos and toward calm, confidence, and profitability in your agency's operations, this episode delivers both hope and a roadmap. Don't miss these expert insights on the power of process, the value of discovery, and the freedom that comes from building a sustainable project management approach. By the end, you'll see project management as the backbone of agency success—and have new ideas for turning your systems into a competitive advantage.  A big thank you to our podcast's presenting sponsor, White Label IQ.

Billionaires are ravaging our democracy. One of the worst culprits is tech fascist billionaire Peter Theil. His company Palantir's technology allows ICE to identify, locate, and kidnap migrants en masse. Their spy-cop tools track activists and organizers. The IDF uses Palantir tech to commit genocide in Gaza.On Thursday, hundreds of activists disrupted and shut down Palantir's offices in New York City and in the Silicon Valley town of Palo Alto.

In episode 303 of Business Coaching Secrets, host Karl Bryan shares deep Zen reflections inspired by a close friend's challenging life circumstances, emphasizing the essential role of gratitude, silence, and presence both for life and business success. Karl then dives into hard-hitting truths about the business coaching industry, the pitfalls that plague most coaches, actionable frameworks for greater results, and the mindset shift required to create real transformation for clients. If you're serious about sustainable growth and impact as a business coach, this episode is a must-listen. Key Topics Covered Cultivating Presence and Silence for Clarity Karl reflects on conversations with friends battling adversity and recounts lessons from loss and near-death scenarios—how true insight, gratitude, and creative solutions often arise in moments of silence and self-reflection. He underscores that both coaches and their clients can tap into breakthrough moments by intentionally slowing down. Biggest Issues Facing the Business Coaching Industry Karl outlines why the lack of industry barriers leads to a “Wild West” scenario, where passion alone is a poor substitute for genuine skill in diagnosing and solving problems. He warns against focusing only on what you love instead of what you're actually good at—both for coaches and their clients. Seeing Solutions vs. Obstacles An instructive horseback riding story drives home the difference between those who focus on what's in their way (“the line”) and those who focus on what they want (“the water”). This mental model is applied to both coaching practices and client growth. The Installer Mindset: Systematic Success Over Winged Efforts Karl distinguishes between “hiders,” “wingers,” and “installers” in business coaching, advocating for software-based, process-driven approaches—like Profit Acceleration Software—to reliably diagnose and improve businesses rather than hoping for magical results. Fall in Love With the Process, Not the Glory True long-term progress stems from loving daily tasks (prospecting, lead generation, client problem-solving) rather than glamorizing the end destination. Consistent singles—not home runs—build championship businesses (and coaching practices). Tiered Pricing and Delayed Gratification Strategies Karl shares practical pricing strategies for new coaches: scaling client fees gradually to win trust, build results, and land long-term, high-value accounts—using parallels with Tom Brady's career strategy. Profit Trumps Revenue: The Domino Effect Coaches must help clients focus on profit (not just more revenue or scale), reverse engineer essential metrics like accounts receivable, and use frameworks such as the 80/20 principle to identify the true levers in any business. Compounding, Checklists, and the Discipline of Incremental Gains Stories about checklists in aviation and medicine, along with the power of daily 1% improvements and compounding, reinforce the crucial role of systems and marginal gains for coaching and client breakthroughs. Mindset Conditioning and Daily Habits Karl closes by urging coaches to instill positive self-talk, create highlight reels of past wins, and optimize the first moments of each day for powerful, subconscious influence. Notable Quotes “Some people see the water and some people see the line… Are you focusing on problems or on solutions?” “If you were diagnosed with three months to live, you wouldn't obsess about your to-do list—you'd sit in silence, appreciate life, and discover real gratitude.” “Don't do what you're passionate about… do what you're good at. That's where the results and magic happen.” “You can't transfer that which you don't own. If you don't have conviction and belief in your coaching, you'll never give it to your client.” “Profit is the domino that knocks over all the other dominoes.” Actionable Takeaways 1. Replace Busyness with Strategic Silence: Encourage both yourself and clients to regularly unplug from notifications and to-do lists. Make space for stillness—true breakthroughs happen in these moments. 2. Go Beyond Passion—Focus on Skill: Don't just ‘help people' because you're enthusiastic; get great at diagnosing true problems, reverse engineering solutions, and delivering tangible results. 3. Target Profit, Not Just Scale: Help clients focus on building profitable, simple businesses—not just bigger ones. Use frameworks to uncover the highest-leverage activities and products. 4. Implement Tiered Pricing: Start with a small retainer (even $100/month if needed), prove value, and scale clients up to full rates ($2,000+/month) as trust and results build. 5. Use Checklists and Systems: Adopt proven checklists for yourself and your clients (like pilots and surgeons do) to eliminate costly “pilot error” and ensure discipline. 6. Harness the Power of Daily 1% Improvements: Remind clients that small daily gains compound rapidly—leverage the 80/20 rule to identify and focus on the few actions driving the most results. 7. Condition Your Subconscious: Start each morning with empowering beliefs. Repeat mantras like, “Getting clients is easy, getting clients is fun” to rewire your thinking for success—and teach this to your clients.

Bob Elliott joins Cem Karsan and Niels Kaastrup-Larsen for a conversation about what happens when strong economic data masks a deeper structural shift. The income engine still runs, but tariffs, labor scarcity, and immigration limits are quietly rewiring the system. Inflation may not fall the way people expect. Profit margins may not hold. And capital may start flowing away from the US for the first time in a generation. This isn't a cycle call. It's a question of what kind of economy we are becoming—and whether portfolios built for the past can survive what's coming.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Cem on Twitter.Follow Bob on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 02:58 - Revisiting the Income Driven Expansion12:30 - Inflation Dynamics and Economic Policy15:31 - The Dynamics of Labor and Immigration27:58 - Strategic Decoupling and Its Implications32:04 - The Economic Implications of Manufacturing in China42:13 - Economic Growth and Market Dynamics48:28 - The Evolving Landscape of Investment Strategies53:25 - Understanding Alpha Strategies and Portfolio Diversification01:01:10 - The Dynamics of Hedge Fund Strategies and Correlation01:09:34 - Global Macro Trends and Financial DecouplingCopyright © 2024 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help
