In this inspiring episode of the Payne Points of Wealth, Ryan sits down with Jimmy Chen—founder and CEO of Propel, the groundbreaking fintech company modernizing America's social safety net and serving millions of low‑income families each month. Jimmy shares his remarkable journey from arriving in Kansas City as a four‑year‑old immigrant from China with parents who had just $200, to becoming a Stanford graduate, early product manager at LinkedIn and Facebook, and ultimately the creator of one of the most impactful social‑good tech companies in the country. You'll hear: How Jimmy's childhood shaped his relationship with money, scarcity, and grit—including his early “entrepreneurial” idea to sell his toys to avoid being a burden on his family   His realization that Silicon Valley was building tech for people like themselves, not for the millions relying on programs like SNAP.   The company's 11‑year journey—from 60 investor rejections and a $12,000 Kickstarter, to raise $90 million from top VCs and investors like Serena Williams and Kevin Durant.   Why Jimmy hires self-reliance, resilience, and at least one successful —not pedigree.   The massive role AI now plays in Propel's product, customer support, and internal operations.   What he believes the future of education, work, and technology will look like in an AI‑driven world. Jimmy also opens up about the “chip on his shoulder” to succeed, his father's work ethic, why frugality helped and hindered him, and the music that shaped him as a kid, navigating life in a new culture. This is a powerful story of ambition and purpose—proof that game‑changing ideas don't just come from Silicon Valley, but from childhood uncertainty and a deep commitment to help those less fortunate in our country.   Tune in for a conversation that's heartfelt, eye‑opening, and packed with wisdom for entrepreneurs, parents, and anyone navigating big decisions about money, purpose, and impact

In this very special encore presentation, Jimmy Chen, founder/CEO of Propel and Ofek Lavian, founder/CEO of Forage, return to discuss current trends in using technology to ensure more people can access government food benefits. “As of January 27, 2025, at least, our plan is to continue to invest in the things that we have confidence that are not going to change over the 20-, 30-, 40-year time horizon, while we stay nimble and adapt to what might change in the next few weeks or months,” says Chen. “EBT funding is influenced significantly because of macroeconomics, probably to a greater extent than the actual policies of the administration of the White House,” Lavian predicts.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we're diving deep into the latest breakthroughs, regulatory updates, and industry trends shaping the future of healthcare.Let's start with Johnson & Johnson's recent achievement in precision oncology. They've secured a second FDA approval for Akeega, a combination therapy that merges J&J's Zytiga with GSK's Zejula. This innovative approach targets BRCA2-mutated metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer, marking a significant advancement in personalized medicine. This approval not only highlights the progress in tailored treatment strategies but also sets a new benchmark for therapeutic innovation in this particular cancer subset.Moving on to cardiovascular health, Cincinnati's LIB Therapeutics has introduced Lerochol, a third-generation PCSK9 inhibitor designed to lower cholesterol. Unlike its predecessors, Lerochol offers simplified administration, potentially improving patient adherence and outcomes. This approval is part of a broader effort to refine lipid-lowering therapies and better address cardiovascular diseases.In a groundbreaking development for heart rhythm disorders, Milestone Pharmaceuticals has received FDA approval for Cardamyst, a nasal spray that patients can self-administer to manage paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT). This novel treatment option empowers patients with an on-demand solution to control their heart rhythms, significantly enhancing their quality of life.Turning to infectious diseases, Innoviva's Nuzolvence has been approved as a much-needed new treatment for gonorrhea, the first in over three decades following GSK's Blujepa. This marks an essential step forward in combating antibiotic-resistant sexually transmitted infections and highlights the urgency of developing new antimicrobial agents.However, not all ventures have met with success. Argenx recently halted studies of its drug Vyvgart in thyroid eye disease after disappointing trial results. This decision underscores the inherent challenges and risks involved in drug development, particularly when tackling complex autoimmune conditions.Sanofi has faced its own hurdles with Tolebrutinib after experiencing both FDA delays and trial misses in non-relapsing secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. These setbacks emphasize the intricacies of bringing innovative therapies to market and the critical importance of robust clinical trial design and regulatory strategy.Strategic collaborations are also playing a pivotal role in the industry. Adaptive Biotechnologies has partnered with Pfizer to leverage its T-cell receptor discovery technology. Meanwhile, Dren Bio is expanding its collaboration with Sanofi to develop next-generation B-cell depleting therapies for autoimmune diseases. These alliances reflect an increasing trend towards collaborative innovation to harness cutting-edge technologies.Another strategic move comes from Sobi, which has acquired Arthrosi Therapeutics for $950 million to bolster its portfolio with phase 3 gout treatments. This acquisition bypasses traditional IPO routes and showcases evolving deal-making strategies within biopharma.In another exciting development, Kyverna Therapeutics is on the verge of securing the first-in-class CAR-T therapy approval for autoimmune diseases following promising trial results with its CD19 agent. This could herald a new era in autoimmune disease management through cellular therapies.In regulatory news beyond pharmaceuticals, former President Donald Trump signed an executive order establishing a unified federal framework for artificial intelligence (AI). This aims to streamline AI regulation across states and could accelerate AI integration into various sectors, including healthcare.These developments collectively represent pivotal moments in the pharmaceutical and Support the show

Wedbush's Dan Ives reiterated his buy rating and price target for Tesla (TSLA) and sees a $2 trillion market cap by 2026. A $3 trillion range is something Dan believes is in the crosshairs if it can really turn the page on its "A.I. chapter." Marley Kayden explains how the company's recent autonomous driving headlines add to Ives' thesis.

Today I'm delighted to be joined by Clive Kinross, CEO and co-founder of Propel Holdings. Propel is one of the most successful fintech lenders serving underbanked consumers, and what makes their story particularly compelling is how they've achieved it: profitably, almost from day one. Since founding the company 14 years ago with just $4 million in capital, Clive and his three co-founders, who are all still with the company, have built a business that now serves a market of 100 million consumers across the US, Canada, and the UK. The company went public on the Toronto Stock Exchange in 2021 and has been the best-performing stock in its vintage.In our conversation, Clive shares how his background as a chartered accountant shaped his disciplined, unit economics-focused approach to building a lending business, how Propel uses AI to analyze over 80,000 applications daily and make credit decisions in six seconds, and why he believes the opportunity to serve underbanked consumers in developed economies has never been stronger.In this podcast you will learn:Why Clive decided to tackle credit for his second major business.How the company has evolved since its founding 14 years ago.The different brands they have in the US, Canada and UK markets.How their credit graduation programs work.The typical consumer coming to Propel for credit.How they differentiate themselves from others in the market.How their AI models work and the data they are feeding into these models.How Clive views the potential of AI throughout Propel's business.Why he decided to take Propel public in 2021.How they were able to become a profitable fintech lender quickly and sustainably.What Clive is most excited about for the future of Propel.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

You're listening to Burnt Toast! I'm Virginia Sole-Smith. Today, my conversation is with Rachel Cahill, a longtime anti-hunger policy advocate based in Ohio. Rachel and her team support national and state-level organizations fighting every day to end hunger and poverty in the United States. Most of her work focuses on making SNAP (the government's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) the most effective, accessible and equitable program it can be in every community. JICYMI: When the federal government shut down this fall, it closed SNAP for the first time in the history of the program, pausing benefits for much of November. Benefits are up and running again in most places, but this has had major ripple effects on the state of hunger in our country right now. And it's led to a lot of long-term questions about what we do to prevent that ever happening again. Rachel knows more about the ins and outs of SNAP, and anti-hunger advocacy, than anyone I know, so I asked her to come on the podcast to explain what's happening, and what we can do to help fight hunger. We also talk quite a bit about how to give strategically because it is that time of year when a lot of us want to do charitable giving. Which is great! But there are good and less good ways to do that. Burnt Toast is a community of helpers, and I think this conversation will help us all be better at helping. If you enjoy this conversation, a paid subscription is the best way to support our work! Join Burnt Toast!

Salesforce, the world's #1 AI CRM, has unveiled its 2025 Cyber Week results (November 25-December 1), analysing shopping data from over 1.5 billion shoppers. This was another record-breaking shopping week, with overall industry global sales increasing 7% year over year (YOY) to €286billion, with Black Friday sales in Ireland increasing 19%. These results signal a strong consumer appetite for buying this holiday season despite increasing global prices, and they demonstrate AI and agents as fundamental accelerators for purchase and productivity in commerce. AI and agents deliver outsized impact on Cyber Week sales and service AI and agents were pivotal elements in shoppers' path to purchase, driving €57 billion in sales by delivering personalised, high-converting shopping experiences. Across Cyber Week, AI and agents influenced 20% of all global orders via personalised product recommendations and conversational customer service. Pandora, Shark Ninja, and Funko and other retailers who utilised Salesforce's Agentforce 360 and their own branded agents saw sales grow 32% faster than those without. Beyond purchases, AI agents efficiently managed the influx of inquiries to emerge as customer service heroes. Agentic customer service conversations grew 55% week over week. Crucially, the volume of agent actions - including updating delivery addresses and initiating returns - surged by 70% compared with the previous week, offsetting administrative loads for service teams and lowering operational costs. Salesforce powers Cyber Week with trust, scale, and AI agents The foundation of Cyber Week's success for global retailers was the trust and unified power of Agentforce 360. Brands drove profitable growth and scaled their operations, supported by Salesforce's 100% uptime the entire week, including Agentforce Commerce, which powered 61 million orders on digital storefronts. The scale extended across channels as retailers managed 76% more orders on the Order Management System (OMS) platform while Agentforce Marketing delivered personalised outreach by sending 56.3 billion marketing messages. On Black Friday, historically the largest day of the year for in-store shopping, Salesforce's Retail Point ofSale (POS) saw 96% YOY growth in order volumes. 2025 Cyber Week Industry Insights Cyber Week sets a new global record: Consumers demonstrated strong activity, continuing to spend throughout the week and driving healthy sales growth numbers for retailers. Black Friday drove €67 billion in global sales (up 6% YOY), up 19% in Ireland. . Black Friday also accounted for 31% of all in-store sales during Cyber Week, making it the largest in-store shopping day of the week. Meanwhile, Cyber Monday drove €45 billion in global online sales, which was up 15% in Ireland. Mobile shopping becomes the digital default: Mobile devices drove 70% of online orders both globally, and mobile wallets continued to grow as a top form of payment, used for 27% of all global orders. Meanwhile, social media is becoming a critical entry point for shoppers, driving 15% of all global digital traffic to retailers' sitesConsumer spending stays strong: The average selling price (ASP) across Cyber Week increased 6% YOY. But in the end, consumers were undeterred by these price hikes - Cyber Week order volumes still grew by 2% globally and 1% in the U.S. compared with last year. This signals that shoppers saw this time frame as the best week of the year to make purchases regardless of price hikes. "Irish shoppers with their well known eye for value continue to embrace Black Friday and Cyber Monday as a key moment in their Christmas shopping plans. This year's growth highlights the power that agentic AI can bring, with significant increases in predictive recommendations and conversion across the week. It shows the scale of the opportunity for Irish businesses of every size to adopt these new capabilities and deliver faster, smarter, and more personal experiences that meet rising custom...

In this solo episode of Becoming Unshakable, I invite you to join me for a quiet reflection on how our past experiences can shape and strengthen who we are becoming. I talk about my love for fall, the sound of leaves crunching underfoot, and how those simple moments remind me of the beauty of change. Each fallen leaf tells a story of what was, and each season reminds us that growth often begins with letting go. I share why I no longer believe in leaving the past behind. Our pasts are full of lessons, proof of our resilience, and reminders of how much we have already overcome. When I look back on my own life, I see the obstacles that once felt impossible but now serve as evidence of what I'm capable of. Those memories keep me grounded and confident when new challenges arise. This episode is all about using what came before to propel us toward what's next. It's about finding power in reflection, gratitude in growth, and peace in knowing that everything we've lived through has prepared us for what lies ahead. I hope this short conversation helps you see your own past in a new light and gives you the courage to keep moving forward with strength and purpose.

Allison Wagstrom is the Senior Loan Officer for Propel Nonprofits, whose mission "fuels the impact and effectiveness of nonprofits with guidance, expertise, and capital." Allison joins host Steve Boland to talk about the risks nonprofits face in 2025, and steps and tools they can use to manage that risk. Allison encourages charities to think in terms of revenue mix, program costs, infrastructure, and capital. She and Steve talk about examples in such areas of the emotional labor of program costs (because that is really people in most cases), the new risks in 2025 where government funding is no longer as secure as it used to be, and how a cashflow projection may not ameliorate all fears but provides a way to examine fears on paper. Allison discusses the role of the board in these times, and both of them caution that 2025 is still a year to consider building cash reserves, because 2026 and 2027 may have even more risk on the horizon. Sunsetting, mergers, and acquisitions may be on the table in order to preserve mission impact. Propel Nonprofits manages a Resource Library for charities to use in learning about their own options.

Through stories of both hardship and triumph, Justin reveals how simple, consistent systems can replace chaos with clarity and empower long-term growth.About Our Guest: Justin Lund is a systems-driven entrepreneur, speaker, and founder of Propel Your, a company dedicated to helping small business owners scale beyond founder-dependence by building resilient operations and administrative foundations. With a focus on companies generating $500K to $1.5M in annual revenue, Justin partners with founders to resolve operational pain points, standardize processes, and instill sustainable structure so that businesses aren't reliant on any single person.His journey to operations expert was far from linear. Early in his career, Justin gravitated toward sales, creativity, and the more exciting facets of entrepreneurship, often neglecting the “boring” but vital functions accounting, payroll, compliance that he believed could be outsourced. But life intervened. After battling addiction and navigating legal and personal consequences, he underwent a deep period of self-reflection, rehabilitation, and growth. He credits that season not only with personal healing but with the formation of rigorous mental models, frameworks, and systems that now inform every facet of his work.Find Him Here: Instagram: www.instagram.com/itsjustinlund/YouTube: www.youtube.com/@itsJustinLundLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/justin-lund-propel/Facebook: www.facebook.com/justin.lund.propelWebsite: www.propelyour.comEmail: justin@propelyour.com
