What began as a single song soon reignited his passion, leading to a steady stream of new releases. Their partnership blends generational perspectives, creating a modern yet soulful sound rooted in tradition.His latest single, “Lay Yo Head Back,” from the album After Hours, is available on all major streaming platforms, along with a music video on YouTube. The track offers a sensual yet comforting narrative centered on relaxation, intimacy, and emotional connection. “It's about coming home, unwinding, and taking care of your woman,” Allen explains. “It's an invitation to feel good, to feel loved.”After Hours, Allen's second album in one year, delivers a mature sound inspired by mid 2000s R&B, offering smooth grooves, romantic storytelling, and feel good melodies that resonate across generations.Beyond music, Parrish Allen is a dedicated entrepreneur and community leader. As the founder of Parrish Entertainment LLC, he employs over 200 team members and has helped establish 17 group homes, reflecting his deep commitment to service, empowerment, and social impact.A passionate believer in second chances and lifelong dreams, Allen hopes his journey inspires others to pursue their purpose at any stage of life. “It's not about age,” he says. “It's about love for what you do. Once you have handled your responsibilities, go back to your dreams and move forward.”Up next is the high energy single “On Me,” accompanied by a newly completed music video. Promising an upbeat, dance driven vibe, Allen invites fans to get ready to move.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Few issues have tested public trust in medicine as deeply as vaccines, and few individuals have influenced that dialogue more than Dr. Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and a longtime member of the FDA's Vaccine Advisory Committee. In this timely and candid interview with Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith, Dr. Offit points to this year's severe flu season and a resurgence of measles as alarming proof points of how a changing federal perspective on vaccine policy is having a real impact on public health. “You'd like to think you can educate about the importance of vaccines, but I fear at this point the viruses themselves are doing the educating.” In this wide ranging discussion, Dr. Offit also addresses: The rigorous and painstaking process of developing vaccines, based on his experience co-inventing the rotavirus vaccine. Shifting levels of public trust in scientific organizations. Promising innovations in vaccine development. Don't miss this deeply-informed perspective on the interplay of science, policy, and public education, and his encouraging message to young clinicians about managing the current challenges in public health.  Mentioned in this episode: Vaccine Education Center at Children's Hospital of PhiladelphiaPerelman School of Medicine If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Send a textFor more than a decade, Dr. Glen Gentry and a team have been working on a way to curb the population explosion of feral hogs in Louisiana. An example, he said if Louisiana had 1 million feral hogs, 750,000 would have to be eliminated every year to keep the population at 1 million. However promising, the process of getting it approved through the Environmental Protection Agency is still a decade away. Gentry talks about the bait and what is the next phase to get it to market.You can contact Dr. Gentry at GGentry@agcenter.lsu.edu.Minding the Forest is a podcast of the Louisiana Forestry Association and his hosted by LFA Media Specialist Jeff Zeringue.

Genflow Biosciences Ltd (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF, FRA:WQ5) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about preliminary interim results from the company's SLAB clinical trial in aged dogs. Leire explained that the SLAB trial is a randomised, blinded clinical study involving 24 dogs. The analysis remains preliminary, with the trial ongoing, but Leire said the strength and consistency of the early signals were unexpected. The interim results showed that every treatment group outperformed the control group across multiple endpoints, including survival, muscle mass, frailty and quality of life. Leire emphasised that although the sample size is small - six dogs per arm - the consistency of outcomes across endpoints is meaningful in a rigorous clinical setting. As he explained, “such a consistency across endpoint in a small sample is often a very encouraging early sign.” Importantly, the study reported zero adverse events, reinforcing the therapy's safety and tolerability profile at this stage. The trial will continue for a further 90 days following the dosing period to assess the durability of effect. Additional data still to come include methylation clock analysis, which measures biological age at the molecular level, and comprehensive muscle biopsy histology. Leire said the interim data is already strengthening partnership discussions within the animal health sector, noting that randomised clinical data shifts conversations significantly. While remaining appropriately cautious, he added that “the risk reward at this stage is interesting” for investors.

Promising new cancer screening methods are pivoting toward multi-cancer early detection (MCED) blood tests (liquid biopsies) and AI-enhanced imaging, which aim to detect multiple cancer types from a single, non-invasive sample, often before symptoms arise. These technologies, including the Galleri test and Novelna's protein-based tests, analyze DNA, proteins, or methylation patterns to identify cancer signals.  Multi-Cancer Early Detection (MCED) Blood Tests: These tests, often called liquid biopsies, detect DNA or proteins shed by cancer cells into the bloodstream, identifying early-stage cancers (e.g., ovarian, pancreatic) that lack standard screening protocols. Galleri Test: Analyzes chemical methylation patterns to detect over 50 types of cancer, with the potential to indicate the cancer's origin in the body. Novelna's Test: An experimental test analyzing protein signatures, showing high accuracy in identifying 18 early-stage cancers, including 93% of stage 1 cancers in men. TriOx Test: A new, Oxford-developed test showing high sensitivity in detecting trace cancer DNA. AI and Machine Learning in Screening: AI is enhancing existing imaging techniques (e.g., mammography) to improve accuracy and efficiency in reading scans, reducing false positives. Other Liquid Biopsies: Research into analyzing blood, breath, and urine for early signs of cancer, offering a less invasive alternative to tissue biopsies.  While offering immense promise for reducing cancer mortality, many of these technologies, including MCED, are still in research or early implementation phases, and they can produce false positives.

In this Jewish Inspiration Podcast episode (Day 122), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe concludes the Gate of Falsehood (Sheker) from Orchos Tzaddikim and transitions toward the upcoming Gate of Truth. He explores the final categories of permissible "white lies" and strategies to avoid outright falsehood while maintaining peace or dignity:Pushing off requests without lying — If asked to lend something you don't want to give, don't say “I don't have it” (falsehood); instead, say “I'm not able to help right now” or “I'm busy.” Even small commitments (“I'll give you this”) must be honored—breaking them is covenant-like betrayal.False assurances — Promising benefit/gifts to gain trust, then reneging, incurs severe punishment (worse than vague lies).Boasting false qualities — Taking credit/praise for traits one lacks (or misusing true praise for self-glory) is theft of honor.Distorting heard facts — Even without gain/damage, altering details trains the tongue in sheker.Permitted “lies” — For peace (Aaron's method: telling quarreling parties the other regrets), praising a bride (even if not fully true), minimizing Torah knowledge, hospitality (don't publicize a gracious host to avoid exploitation), marital privacy (redirect questions), or small gifts (don't retract after promising).The rabbi stresses: falsehood distances from Hashem (Emet/truth); even “harmless” lies habituate deception. Best to divert/redirect questions rather than lie. Truth stands forever; sheker collapses. The episode ends previewing the Gate of Truth—Hashem's essence—and urging vigilance against rationalized lies.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on July 15, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 4, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

The Oregon Department of Human Services recently evaluated the first phase of a pilot program that gives $1,000 a month to youth experiencing homelessness. So far, the direct cash transfer program is producing promising results, including significant reductions in youth homelessness and improved mental health outcomes for participants. Now, early into its second phase, the program is riding the tailwinds of the first.    Matt Rasmussen is the program manager for the Youth Experiencing Homelessness Program at the OD HS. He joins us to talk about the successes and challenges of the first pilot phase and aspirations for the second. Gabi Huffman, a youth consultant and former recipient of direct cash transfers, also joins us to share her experience with the program.  

Stem Cell Stroke Recovery: What the Research Says (and What It Doesn't) If you've had a stroke (or you love someone who has), you've probably seen the same promise pop up again and again: “Stem cells can fix the damage.” And when you're tired, frustrated, and doing the hard work of rehab every day, that promise can feel like a lifeline. But here's the problem: hope is powerful… and hype knows it. A viewer recently asked me a question that's become more common over the last few years: “What can you say about the effectiveness of STC30 stem cell treatment?” And my honest first reaction was: I don't even know what that is. So instead of guessing, I did what I always encourage stroke survivors to do: I checked. Carefully. Because the last thing I want is to sound confident while accidentally sending someone into an expensive rabbit hole. What most people think stem cells do (and why that's not quite right) When people hear “stem cells,” it's easy to imagine a simple story: “New cells will replace the damaged brain cells… and I'll be back to normal.” But most current thinking in research is closer to this: Stem cells may act more like helpers than replacements. Instead of becoming brand-new brain tissue, the hope is that stem cells may release signals that support healing, things like: calming inflammation improving the “repair environment” in the brain supporting blood flow and recovery processes encouraging new connections (neuroplasticity) So rather than “magic new brain,” the real question becomes: Does this create better conditions for recovery? That's still an exciting idea. But exciting isn't the same as proven. The honest truth about stem cell stroke recovery research When you zoom out and look at the research as a whole, the most accurate summary is this: There are encouraging signals… and real uncertainty. Some studies suggest stem cell approaches might help some people improve things like movement, function, or daily activities especially under certain conditions. But here's the fine print most people never see: 1) Studies don't all use the same approach Trials vary widely in: the type of cells used how they're prepared when they're given (early vs later) how they're delivered (IV drip vs artery delivery vs other methods) what outcomes they measure how long participants are followed So when someone says, “stem cells work,” the real question is: Which stem cells are given when, given how, and for who? 2) Quality varies across trials Not all trials are designed equally. Some are small. Some use different measurement scales. Some follow up for shorter periods. And that makes it hard to draw strong conclusions that apply to everyone. 3) Long-term certainty still isn't there Even when short-term safety looks okay in some studies, long-term tracking can be limited depending on the approach used. So the responsible stance is not “yes” or “no.” It's: “Show me the details.” Why branded programs confuse people (and what to do about it) This is where many survivors get stuck. A clinic or company may use a name that sounds scientific, something like “STC30,” “protocol X,” “advanced regenerative therapy,” but the name itself doesn't automatically tell you: what the cells actually are whether it's been tested publicly whether results are published whether it's regulated as treatment, trial, or something else So if the name is unclear, don't decide based on the label. Decide based on the details. “Promising doesn't automatically mean proven.” My simple 3-question filter for any stem cell offer You don't need a science background to avoid being misled. Here's the filter I use simple, practical, and hard to game: 1) Is this proven… or experimental? If a provider can't clearly explain in plain English what the treatment actually is, where it comes from, and what the protocol involves, treat it as experimental. Experimental doesn't automatically mean bad. It just means: you're stepping into uncertainty, and you deserve to know that upfront. 2) What evidence is public and checkable? Look for things like: published studies you can read registered clinical trials clear reporting on outcomes and side effects follow-up data over time If all you're getting is testimonials and before/after stories, that might feel hopeful… but it's not enough to make a serious decision. 3) What's the real cost (money and focus)? This one is huge in stroke recovery. Sometimes people chase a big intervention and accidentally reduce the things that are already proven to help: consistent rehab practice repetition and movement training sleep and recovery emotional support and community nutrition and general health basics So if you ever explore stem cells, my personal view is: Don't let it replace the fundamentals. Treat it as an add-on decision, not the main plan. Questions to ask any provider before you spend a cent If you're seriously considering stem cell therapy, print this list or screenshot it. Ask your provider: What exactly are the cells? Where do they come from? How are they prepared and tested for quality? How is it delivered: IV drip, injection, artery, or other? Who is it best suited for, and who should NOT do it? What are the known risks and side effects? What follow-up do you provide, and for how long? Is this part of a registered clinical trial or private treatment? Can I see the trial registration or published data? If they can answer calmly and clearly, that's a good sign. If they dodge, rush, or oversell? Pause. The research shortcut that changed how fast I can respond I used to spend half a day digging through articles, trial registrations, and scattered resources, especially when someone asked a question about a product or protocol name I didn't recognize. Now I use Turnto.ai to speed up the finding part, and then I still do the most important step: I check what matters. That means: reading beyond headlines looking at study details comparing sources staying honest about what's known vs unknown If you're the kind of person who wants to stay current, tools like that can help you find relevant research faster but the real power is still the same skill: curiosity without getting fooled by hype. Where to go next if you feel stuck in recovery If you're reading this and thinking, “I just want something that works,” I get it. But the best progress usually comes from: a clear plan consistent practice the right supports and not wasting energy on shiny distractions If you want to go deeper, here are two ways I can support you: Book: recoveryafterstroke.com/book Patreon: patreon.com/recoveryafterstroke And if you haven't watched the video yet, it's embedded above because seeing how I search and how I evaluate claims can help you do the same.

Welcome back to Snafu with Robin Zander. In this episode, I'm joined by Jeff Jaworsky, who shares his journey from a global role at Google to running his own business while prioritizing time with his children. We talk about the pivotal life and career decisions that shaped this transition, focusing on the importance of setting boundaries—both personally and professionally. Jeff shares insights on leaving a structured corporate world for entrepreneurship and the lessons learned along the way. We also explore the evolving landscape of sales and entrepreneurship, highlighting how integrating human connection and coaching skills is more important than ever in a tech-driven world. The conversation touches on the role of AI and technology, emphasizing how they can support—but not replace—essential human relationships. Jeff offers practical advice for coaches and salespeople on leveraging their natural skills and hints at a potential future book exploring the intersection of leadership, coaching, and sales. If you're curious about what's next for thoughtful leadership, entrepreneurship, and balancing work with life, this episode is for you. And for more conversations like this, get your tickets for Snafu Conference 2026 on March 5th here, where we'll continue exploring human connection, business, and the evolving role of AI. Start (0:00) Early life and first real boundary Jeff grew up up in a structured, linear environment Decisions largely made for you Clear expectations, predictable paths Post–high school as the first inflection point College chosen because it's "what you're supposed to do" Dream: ESPN sports anchor (explicit role model: Stuart Scott) Reality check through research Job placement rate: ~3% First moment of asking: Is this the best use of my time? Is this fair to the people investing in me (parents)? Boundary lesson #1 Letting go of a dream doesn't mean failure Boundaries can be about honesty, not limitation Choosing logic over fantasy can unlock unexpected paths Dropping out of college → accidental entry into sales Working frontline sales at Best Buy while in school Selling computers, service plans, handling customers daily Decision to leave college opens capacity Manager notices and offers leadership opportunity Takes on home office department Largest sales category in the store Youngest supervisor in the company (globally) at 19 Early leadership challenges Managing people much older Navigating credibility, age bias, exclusion Learning influence without authority Boundary insight Temporary decisions can become formative Saying "yes" doesn't mean you're locked in forever Second boundary: success without sustainability Rapid growth at Best Buy Promotions Increasing responsibility Observing manager life up close 60-hour weeks No real breaks Lunch from vending machines Internal checkpoint Is this the life I want long-term? Distinguishing: Liking the work Disliking the cost Boundary lesson #2 You can love a craft and still reject the lifestyle around it Boundaries protect the future version of you Returning to school with intention Decision to go back to college This time with clarity Sales and marketing degree by design, not default Accelerated path Graduates in three years Clear goal: catch up, not start over Internship at J. Walter Thompson Entry into agency world Launch of long-term sales and marketing career Pattern recognition: how boundaries actually work Ongoing self-check at every stage Have I learned what I came here to learn? Am I still growing? Is this experience still stretching me? Boundaries as timing, not rejection Experiences "run their course" Leaving doesn't invalidate what came before Non-linear growth Sometimes stepping down is strategic Demotion → education Senior role → frontline role (later at Google) Downward moves that enable a bigger climb later Shared reflection with Robin Sales as a foundational skill Comparable to: Surfing (handling forces bigger than you) Early exposure to asking, pitching, rejection Best Buy reframed Customer service under pressure Handling frustrated, misinformed, emotional people Humility + persuasion + resilience Parallel experiences Robin selling a restaurant after learning everything she could Knowing the next step (expansion) and choosing not to take it Walking away without knowing what's next Core philosophy: learning vs. maintaining "If I'm not learning, I'm dying" Builder mindset, not maintainer Growth as a non-negotiable Career decisions guided by curiosity, not status Titles are temporary Skills compound Ladders vs. experience stacks Rejecting the myth of linear progression Valuing breadth, depth, and contrast The bridge metaphor Advice for people stuck between "not this" and "not sure what next" Don't leap blindly Build a bridge Bridge components Low-risk experiments Skill development Small tests in parallel with current work Benefits Reduces panic Increases clarity Turns uncertainty into movement Framing the modern career question Referencing the "jungle gym, not a ladder" idea Careers as lateral, diagonal, looping — not linear Growth through range, not just depth Connecting to Range and creative longevity Diverse experiences as a competitive advantage Late bloomers as evidence that exploration compounds Naming the real fear beneath the metaphor What if exploration turns into repeated failure? What if the next five moves don't work? Risk of confusing experimentation with instability Adding today's pressure cooker Economic uncertainty AI and automation reshaping work faster than previous generations experienced The tension between adaptability and survival The core dilemma How do you pursue a non-linear path without tumbling back to zero? How do you "build the bridge" instead of jumping blindly? How do you keep earning while evolving? The two-year rule Treating commitments like a contract with yourself Two years as a meaningful unit of time Long enough to: Learn deeply Be challenged Experience failure and recovery Short enough to avoid stagnation Boundaries around optional exits Emergency ripcord exists But default posture is commitment, not escape Psychological benefit Reduces panic during hard moments Prevents constant second-guessing Encourages depth over novelty chasing The 18-month check-in Using the final stretch strategically Asking: Am I still learning? Am I still challenged? Does this align with my principles? Shifting from execution to reflection Early exploration of "what's next" Identifying gaps: Skills to acquire Experiences to test Regaining control External forces aren't always controllable Internal planning always is Why most people get stuck Planning too late Waiting until: Layoffs Burnout Forced transitions Trying to design the future in crisis Limited creativity Fear-based decisions Contrast with proactive planning Calm thinking Optionality Leverage Extending the contract Recognizing unfinished business Loving the work Still growing Still contributing meaningfully One-year extensions as intentional choices Not inertia Not fear Conscious recommitment A long career, one organization at a time Example: nearly 13 years at Google Six different roles Multiple reinventions inside one company Pattern over prestige Frontline sales Sales leadership Enablement Roles as chapters, not identities Staying while growing Leaving only when growth plateaus Experience stacking over ladder climbing Rejecting linear advancement Titles matter less than skills Accumulating perspective Execution Leadership Systems Transferable insight What works with customers What works internally What scales Sales enablement as an example of bridge-building Transition motivated by impact Desire to help at scale Supporting many sellers, not just personal results A natural evolution, not a pivot Built on prior sales experience Expanded influence Bridge logic in action Skills reused Scope widened Risk managed Zooming out: sales, stigma, and parenting Introducing the next lens: children Three boys: 13, 10, 7 Confronting sales stereotypes Slimy Manipulative Self-serving Tension between reputation and reality Loving sales Building a career around it Teaching it without replicating the worst versions Redefining sales as a helping profession Sales as service Primary orientation: benefit to the other person Compensation as a byproduct, not the driver Ethical center Believe in what you're recommending Stand behind its value Sleep well regardless of outcome Losses reframed Most deals don't close Failure as feedback Integrity as the constant Selling to kids (and being sold by them) Acknowledging reality Everyone sells, constantly Titles don't matter Teaching ethos, not tactics How you persuade matters more than whether you win Kindness Thoughtfulness Awareness of the other side Everyday negotiations Bedtime extensions Appeals to age, fairness, peer behavior Sales wins without good reasoning Learning opportunity Success ≠ good process Boundaries still matter Why sales gets a bad reputation Root cause: selfishness Focus on "what I get" Language centered on personal gain Misaligned value exchange Overselling Underdelivering The alternative Lead with value for the other side Hold mutual benefit in the background Make the exchange explicit and fair Boundaries as protection for both sides Clear scope What's included What's not Saying no as a service Preventing resentment Preserving trust Entrepreneurial lens Boundaries become essential Scope creep erodes value Clarity sustains long-term relationships Value exchange, scope, and boundaries Every request starts with discernment, not enthusiasm What value am I actually providing? What problem am I solving? How much time, energy, and attention will this really take? The goal isn't just a "yes" Both sides need to feel good about: What's being given What's being received What's being expected What's realistically deliverable Sales as a two-sided coin Mutual benefit matters Overselling creates future resentment Promising "the moon and the stars" is how trust breaks later Boundaries as self-respect Clear limits protect delivery quality Good boundaries prevent repeating bad sales dynamics Saying less upfront often enables better outcomes long-term Transitioning into coaching and the SNAFU Conference Context for the work today Speaking at the inaugural SNAFU Conference Focused on reluctant salespeople and non-sales roles Why coaching became the next chapter Sales is everywhere, regardless of title Coaching emerged as a natural extension of sales leadership The origin story at Google Transition from sales leadership to enablement Core question: how do we help sellers have better conversations? Result: building Google's global sales coaching program Grounded in practice and feedback Designed to prepare for high-stakes conversations The hidden overlap between sales and coaching Coaching as an underutilized advantage Especially powerful for sales leaders Shared core skills Deep curiosity Active listening Presence in conversation Reflecting back what's heard, not what you assume The co-creation mindset Not leading someone to your solution Guiding toward their desired outcome Why this changes everything Coaching improves leadership effectiveness Coaching improves sales outcomes Coaching reshapes how decisions get made A personal inflection point: learning to listen Feedback that lingered "Jeff is often the first and last to speak in meetings" The realization Seniority amplified his voice Being directive wasn't the same as being effective The shift Stop being the first to speak Invite more voices Lead with curiosity, not certainty The result More evolved perspectives Better decisions Sometimes realizing he was simply wrong The parallel to sales Talking at customers limits discovery Pre-built pitch decks obscure real needs The "right widget" only emerges through listening What the work looks like today A synthesis of experiences Buyer Seller Sales leader Enablement leader Executive coach How that shows up in practice Executive coaching for sales and revenue leaders Supporting decision-making Developing more coach-like leadership styles Workshops and trainings Helping managers coach more effectively Building durable sales skills Advisory work Supporting sales and enablement organizations at scale The motivation behind the shift Returning to the core questions: Am I learning? Am I growing? Am I challenged? A pull toward broader impact A desire to test whether this work could scale beyond one company Why some practices thrive and others stall Observing the difference Similar credentials Similar training Radically different outcomes The uncomfortable truth The difference is sales Entrepreneurship without romance Businesses don't "arrive" on their own Clients don't magically appear Visibility, rejection, iteration are unavoidable Core requirements Clear brand Defined ICP Articulated value Credibility to support the claim Debunking "overnight success" Success is cumulative Built on years of unseen experience Agency life + Google made entrepreneurship possible Sales as a universal survival skill Especially now Crowded markets Economic uncertainty Increased competition Sales isn't manipulation It's how value moves through the world Avoiding the unpersuadable Find people who already want what you offer Make it easier for them to say yes For those who "don't want to sell" Either learn it Or intentionally outsource it But you can't pretend it doesn't exist The vision board and the decision to leap December 18, 2023 45th birthday Chosen as a forcing function Purpose of the date Accountability, not destiny A moment to decide: stay or go Milestones on the back Coaching certification Experience thresholds Personal readiness Listening to the inner signal The repeated message: "It's time" The bridge was already built Skills stacked Experience earned Risk understood Stepping forward without full certainty You never know what's on the other side You only learn once you cross and look around Decision-making and vision boards Avoid forcing yourself to meet arbitrary deadlines Even if a date is set for accountability (e.g., a 45th birthday milestone), the real question is: When am I ready to act? Sometimes waiting isn't necessary; acting sooner can make sense Boundaries tie directly into these decisions They help you align personal priorities with professional moves Recognizing what matters most guides the "when" and "how" of major transitions Boundaries in the leap from corporate to entrepreneurship Biggest boundary: family and presence with children Managing a global team meant constant connectivity and messages across time zones Transitioning to your own business allowed more control over work hours, clients, and priorities The pro/con framework reinforced the choice Written lists can clarify trade-offs For this example, the deciding factor was: "They get their dad back" Boundaries in entrepreneurship are intertwined with opportunity More freedom comes with more responsibility You can choose your hours, clients, and areas of focus—but still must deliver results Preparing children for a rapidly changing world Skill priorities extend beyond AI and automation Technology literacy is essential, but kids will likely adapt faster than adults Focus on human skills Building networks Establishing credibility Navigating relationships and complex decisions Sales-related skills apply Curiosity, empathy, observation, and problem-solving help them adapt to change These skills are timeless, even as roles and tools evolve Human skills in an AI-driven world AI is additive, not replacement Leverage AI to complement work, not fear it Understand what AI does well and where human judgment is irreplaceable Coaching and other human-centered skills remain critical Lived experience, storytelling, and nuanced judgment cannot be fully replaced by AI Technology enables scale but doesn't replace complex human insight The SNAFU Conference embodies this principle Brings humans together to share experiences and learn Demonstrates that face-to-face interaction, stories, and mutual learning remain valuable Advice for coaches learning to sell Coaches already possess critical sales skills Curiosity, active listening, presence, problem identification, co-creating solutions These skills, when applied to sales, still fall within a helping profession Key approach Use your coaching skills to generate business ethically Reframe sales as an extension of support, not self-interest For salespeople Learn coaching skills to improve customer conversations Coaching strengthens empathy, listening, and problem-solving abilities, all core to effective selling Book and resource recommendations Non-classical sales books Setting the Table by Danny Meyer → emphasizes culture and service as a form of sales Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara → creating value through care for people Coaching-focused books Self as Coach, Self as Leader by Pam McLean Resources from the Hudson Institute of Coaching Gap in sales literature Few resources fully integrate coaching with sales Potential upcoming book: The Power of Coaching and Sales
