Today we're talking about FORO, the fear of running out. According to a new sweeping study from Corebridge Financial, Americans are nine times more likely to say they'd regret running out of money while they're alive than dying with a fortune left unspent. Now, you have probably spent years, maybe decades, doing everything right, putting money away. You're contributing to your 401k, maybe even maxing it, and you're watching the balance grow, and somewhere in the back of your mind you're telling yourself, "When I finally get there, I'm gonna enjoy this." But here's what a new study just uncovered, and it's one of the most surprising findings in retirement research in years: getting there may be considered the hard part, but spending the money once you do is actually harder for millions of Americans.These are people who've worked hard, they saved diligently, they made it to retirement, and now they're not spending. They're hoarding. They're restricting. They're eating out less. They're skipping the trip. They're holding back, not because they can't afford it, but because they're afraid. Afraid if they actually use what they saved, it might run out. To unpack what's driving this and what to do about it, we are joined by Brian Pinsky, President of Individual Markets at Corebridge Financial, one of the nation's largest providers of retirement solutions. He's also the executive behind this landmark research. And Jean Chatzky, a New York Times bestselling author, personal finance expert, one of the most trusted voices in America when it comes to helping real people make smart decisions with their money. She has partnered with Corebridge to turn these findings into an actionable playbook for retirement. We're gonna walk through what the data shows, why it matters, and what you can do right now, even if retirement is still years away, to make sure you don't fall into this trap.

Episode Summary In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, I sit down with Tony Falco to explore the real story behind AI adoption in organizations—and it's probably not what you think. We dig into how companies are rushing into AI without fully understanding their own workflows, and why that approach can create more problems than it solves. Tony brings decades of experience in internet technology to the conversation, giving a grounded perspective on where AI actually delivers value. We also get into the human side of technology—how curiosity, play, and experimentation are becoming essential skills in today's AI-driven world. Along the way, we unpack how data is reshaping decision-making, exposing inefficiencies, and even challenging traditional corporate hierarchies. If you've been wondering how AI fits into leadership, operations, and innovation, this conversation will give you plenty to think about. Key Highlights The evolution of internet technology and how it set the stage for today's AI boom Why understanding workflows is critical before implementing AI solutions How AI is empowering individuals to uncover insights hidden in massive datasets The risks of rushing AI adoption without clear processes or strategy How data-driven insights can expose inefficiencies and organizational bottlenecks The role of curiosity and experimentation in navigating new technologies Challenges organizations face when multiple departments adopt AI independently Links & Resources hydrolix.io (Tony Falco's company focused on log data and AI-driven workflows) If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to follow the Breakfast Leadership Show, leave a rating and review, and share it with someone who's navigating the world of leadership and innovation.  

In this chilling episode of Supernatural Circumstances: The Real Story, host Morgan Knudsen dives into one of the most terrifying tales from the heart of Africa—the man-eating lions of Tsavo. In 1898, two massive, maneless lions terrorized a British railway camp in what is now Kenya, slaughtering over 100 workers with chilling precision. But Morgan uncovers something far darker beneath the surface: local elders warned that the lions were not just predators—they were vessels for something ancient, awakened when sacred land was disturbed. Through haunting storytelling and supernatural investigation, Morgan explores the history, the horror, and the unsettling question: were these lions truly animals… or something else wearing their skin? #history #lions #mystery #murder #truecrime #coldcasefiles #theghostandthedarkness Learn more about your ad choices.

Why did Prince Harry leave the Royal Family?It is one of the most searched royal questions in the world, but the answer is far more complicated than a single argument, a single interview, or a single decision.In this special episode, we trace the full story of Prince Harry's departure from royal life, beginning with the death of Princess Diana in 1997 and the lasting impact it had on his relationship with the media, the monarchy, and public life itself.We examine Harry's unique position as the "spare" to Prince William, his military service, the creation of the Invictus Games, and the challenges of building an identity inside an institution designed around the future king.

"Transformation of any kind is rarely one insight, one coaching session, one workshop, or one conversation.” - Winnie da SilvaLeadership challenges are rarely just about what's happening on the surface.

A viral underwater video of a great white shark in the Mediterranean Sea recently captured the attention of people around the world. For many viewers, the footage seemed to show a shark appearing in a place where it shouldn't be. But the truth is much more interesting. Great white sharks have been documented in the Mediterranean for decades, yet they remain one of the most mysterious and least understood apex predators in the region. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Andrew breaks down why this sighting matters and what the public often gets wrong about stories like this. The shark was filmed by divers working with Healthy Seas while removing abandoned fishing gear from the seafloor. While the footage itself is remarkable, the bigger story is what it tells us about the challenges facing large predators in one of the busiest and most heavily used seas on Earth. From fishing pressure and habitat degradation to gaps in scientific knowledge, the Mediterranean remains a challenging place for sharks to survive. You'll also learn why conservationists were excited about the video for reasons that had nothing to do with discovering a new population. Andrew explores the concept of shifting baselines, how viral wildlife stories can sometimes distort public understanding, and why rare observations like this are still incredibly valuable for conservation. The episode highlights the importance of documenting marine life, supporting scientific research, and continuing efforts to reduce threats such as ghost fishing gear. By the end of the episode, you'll see that the shark wasn't really the story. The real story is how much we still don't know about some of the ocean's most iconic animals, even in regions that humans have studied and used for thousands of years. Sometimes a single video can remind us that the ocean still holds mysteries worth exploring, understanding, and protecting.

A single line on a label can shake an entire trade, especially when that trade has been using the product for 30 plus years. We pick back up with Scott Hamilton, the CEO of United Chemical, to sort out what the EPA's “not for use in outdoor pools” language is really responding to, and whether the bromate concern is being evaluated in a way that matches real pool conditions.We get into the chemistry behind bromate exposure, including why some researchers argue it should not be assessed with a strictly linear model. Scott explains the case for looking at thresholds and real-world dose, plus the research showing how stomach acid can reduce a large portion of trace bromate back into bromide. We also talk about what makes the EPA process move slowly: protocol review, data acceptance, and the very real staffing and workload constraints that can turn a decision into a multi-year timeline.Then we zoom out to the business and legal side of pool chemical regulation. Why do some products stop claiming they “kill algae” even when pros swear they work? Because pesticidal claims trigger registrations, state-by-state fees, and a compliance burden that can be brutal. We also address the fear factor directly, how to think about risk tolerance, and why transparency matters when the manufacturer has a stake in the outcome.

We weigh the science, the legal reality of pesticidal claims, and why transparency matters when pool pros have relied on a product for decades.  • how bromate exposure is being modeled and why linear risk assumptions may not fit real pool use  • what research says about stomach acid reducing trace bromate back to bromide  • how the EPA makes interim decisions and what it would take to revisit or reverse them  • why some manufacturers remove algae-kill claims and how registration fees shape labels  • how to think about risk tolerance alongside other common pool industry hazards  • why publishing methods and raw data helps the industry move past rumors  If you'd like to see a copy of the study, there's going to be a link in this podcast description for you.  You can download that study and read it for yourself.  If you're looking for part one, again go to my website, swimmingprolearning.com, click on the podcast icon, and open a drop-down menu of other podcasts that I've done before.  If you're interested in the coaching program, you can learn more at PoolGuyCoaching.com.  Download the full Sodium Bromide Study:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1X6-1uJJ7MZugeRDpch0tpop2vg0hjPR0/view?usp=sharingSend us Fan MailSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

In this "best of" episode, I'm sharing some golden nuggets from sales trailblazers, Jamie Crosby, Nick Kane, and Liz Heiman. They share the secrets behind scalable, trust-based referral selling to help you ditch haphazard "who do you know?" asks and start building referral systems that deliver. Today's show is packed with actionable advice on referral selling—the dos, the don'ts, and lessons learned from real-world sales situations. Outline of This Episode [00:41] Jamie Crosby's top three referral selling do's and don'ts [05:12] Importance of organically building relationships over time to generate referrals [06:28] Nick Kane on asking for referrals [11:41] Strategic networking using LinkedIn and CRMs [14:43] Liz Heiman on proactively reaching out for referrals [08:57] Checking in before asking referrals [17:09] Combining referrals with event networking [18:31] Referrals can be about more than just sales Earn It Before You Ask The first rule of referral selling is: never ask before you've earned it. Value comes before requests, and any referral agreement should always be transparent and in writing. Jamie Crosby suggests continually updating your referral sources—celebrate the wins and share the bumps in the road so they're never blindsided, a practice that deepens trust and professionalism. Jamie shares the story of when years of nurturing relationships paid off when, unprompted, multiple referral partners stood up to share testimonials about her business's impact. Thoughtfully built referral networks don't happen overnight, but their ripple effect can be truly magnificent.   Timing, Tact, and Tenacity For Nick Kane, excellence in service is the foundational "do"—without it, no referral program stands a chance. He underscores the importance of educating customers on referral benefits and making the process straightforward and enticing for them. The key differentiator is timing. Ask too early, and you risk coming off as transactional; wait too long, and you may miss your window.  Nick illustrates these principles with an example involving a multi-level referral chain to infiltrate a dream client account. By mapping connections, leaning on LinkedIn, and nurturing advocates at each step, he struck gold—not with a cold call, but a series of warm, credible introductions.    Don't Make It Hard Liz Heiman champions a methodical approach, have a written plan, be proactive (maybe pick up the phone!), and most importantly, don't dump all the legwork on your customer. Instead of vague or open-ended asks, she suggests specificity: do your homework and invite your customers to simply confirm or connect, not to brainstorm on your behalf. Liz also shares how blending event networking with referral requests can yield better introductions. By encouraging clients to bring contacts to meetings, dinners, or information sessions, you transform referrals from awkward asks into mutually beneficial experiences. This creates more natural, lower-pressure entry points for growing your network, and helps your advocates help you more easily.

From the iconic yellow raft scene to the cultural impact of Jaws on public perceptions of sharks, this fascinating conversation explores the intersection of film, fear, and the natural world. How did one movie create a generation afraid to enter the ocean? What was it like to be at the center of one of the most memorable scenes in movie history? And how does Jeffrey Voorhees view the legacy of Jaws nearly five decades later? Join Chester Moore for an exclusive interview with the real Alex Kintner.

The EPA's sodium bromide relabeling decision didn't just tweak a bottle panel, it pulled a familiar algae treatment tool out of the outdoor pool conversation overnight. We're joined by Scott Hamilton, the CEO of United Chemical to explain what the EPA's interim decision actually says, why “not for use in outdoor pools” now shows up on sodium bromide-based algaecides, and how that single change ripples through distribution when big suppliers decide they won't stock the category at all. From there, we get practical and technical. Scott walks us through worst-case outdoor testing designed to stress the chemistry: high pH, zero cyanuric acid (CYA), and heavy liquid chlorine dosing in above-ground pools. We talk bromate formation, why the EPA leans on conservative assumptions like 100% conversion, and what the real-world data shows instead, including the striking difference between treating a pool with active algae versus clean water. If you've ever wondered why timing matters, we dig into the “first hour” window where most bromate formation tends to occur and what actually drives the reaction. We also zoom out to risk, regulation, and perception: how Prop 65 style warning logic shapes the conversation, how the EPA swim model estimates ingestion exposure over a lifetime, and the question every pool pro asks, why hot tubs still get a pass while outdoor pools don't. Subscribe for part two, share this with a pool pro who's navigating algae season, and leave a review with your take on the ruling.We sit down with Scott Hamilton from United Chemical to unpack the EPA's interim decision that forces sodium bromide products to remove outdoor pool use from their labels and triggers major supply chain fallout. We dig into bromate formation, what worst-case testing actually shows, and why the first hour after dosing becomes the key battleground in the chemistry debate.  • who the interim decision affects and why labels now read not for outdoor pools  • why Pool Corp and others stop carrying sodium bromide products  • how the EPA reaches decisions when it does not run its own controlled lab tests  • worst-case outdoor testing design using high pH, zero CYA, and heavy liquid chlorine  • what the data shows with algae present versus clean water  • why most bromate formation happens in the first hour  • how proprietary ingredients can suppress bromate formation  • how Prop 65 and linear risk models shape public perception  • why hot tubs get treated differently under the EPA exposure assumptions  Are you a pool service pro looking to take your business to the next level?

Most executives know something is wrong years before they do anything about it. They have the title, the income, the team, and still feel stuck inside the corporate burnout and golden handcuffs that come with high-performing careers. Drained, distracted, and quietly miserable for 40 to 60 hours a week. In Part 2 of our Executive Career Change series, you'll hear from two real executives, Hayley and Katie, who finally made the move they'd been putting off for years, without blowing up their income or their lives. The question isn't whether to leave. It's how to stop rationalizing your way into roles that look great on paper but feel wrong in practice. What you'll learn: Why high-performing executives tolerate the wrong situation longer than everyone else, and what finally forces the breaking point The hidden cost of staying that most people never see until they're already on the other side of it Why generating activity like updating your resume, calling recruiters, and jumping into interviews is not the same as making progress How Hayley co-created a role built around her strengths instead of just finding the next available job What Katie had to figure out before she could move forward, and why it changed everything about how she searched   Our book, Happen To Your Career: An Unconventional Approach To Career Change and Meaningful Work, is now available on audiobook!

What if abundance has less to do with what you own and more to do with how you feel about your life?Joel Landon joins Amy Sylvis for a conversation about abundance, community, relationships, and the mindset shifts that come with experience. As a husband, father of four daughters, and professional in the self-directed IRA industry, Joel shares how his definition of abundance evolved from pursuing possessions and external markers of success to prioritizing family, personal growth, and connection to a higher purpose.The conversation also explores the role money plays in creating options, the value of community in helping people navigate life's challenges, and how self-directed retirement accounts can open the door to alternative investments like real estate, private businesses, precious metals, and more. Whether you're rethinking what abundance means in your own life or curious about expanding your investment options, this episode offers both practical insights and thoughtful perspective.Connect with Joel Landon:https://www.heritageira.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritageirahttps://www.facebook.com/p/Heritage-IRA-61572336742537/joel@heritageira.comConnect with Amy Sylvis:https://www.linkedin.com/in/amysylvis/Contact Us:https://www.sylviscapital.comhttps://www.sylviscapital.com/webinarinfo@sylviscapital.com00:00 – What Abundance Really Means to Joel06:08 – How Joel's Definition of Success Changed11:15 – Why Community Matters More Than Ever17:42 – Is Money the Destination or the Vehicle?19:38 – What Is a Self-Directed IRA?23:49 – Why Most Investors Never Hear About These Options29:18 – Real Stories of Investors Creating More Choice31:42 – How to Use Retirement Funds Without Triggering Taxes or Penalties

For most of human history, space has been a place we visited. The next chapter may be about building there.For decades, space was the domain of governments, astronauts, and science fiction. Today, falling launch costs, reusable rockets, and a new generation of ambitious founders are turning orbit into something else entirely: a place to build. The question is no longer whether humanity can construct large-scale infrastructure in space, but what we should build first—and why.In this episode of TechSurge, host Sriram Vishwanath speaks with Dr. Ariel Ekblaw, Founder and CEO of Aurelia Institute, Research Affiliate at MIT's Space Exploration Initiative, and founder of Rendezvous Robotics. Ariel has spent her career exploring one of the most fundamental challenges of the emerging space economy: how to build structures in orbit that are far larger than anything that can fit inside a rocket.Ariel explains the origins of TESSERAE, her pioneering work on autonomous self-assembling space architecture, and how ideas borrowed from biology, swarm intelligence, and modular construction could unlock a future of massive solar arrays, communications infrastructure, orbital laboratories, and eventually human habitats in space.The conversation explores the rapidly emerging market for in-orbit infrastructure, including AI data centers in space, space-based solar power, and the technologies needed to support a permanent industrial presence beyond Earth. Ariel breaks down the engineering realities behind these ideas—why cooling data centers in space is harder than most people assume, how autonomous assembly could solve the scale problem, and why the future of orbital infrastructure may look more like a business park than a collection of standalone satellites.Sriram and Ariel also discuss the broader implications of humanity's return to space: the economics unlocked by reusable launch systems, the opportunities created by dramatically lower transportation costs, and the second-order innovations that may emerge from building an industrial ecosystem in orbit. Along the way, they examine space debris, stewardship of the orbital commons, artificial gravity, and what it will take to make long-term human habitation in space viable.At the heart of the discussion is Ariel's belief that space is not an escape from Earth's problems, but a tool for solving them. Whether through advanced manufacturing, new energy systems, biotechnology research, or entirely new industries, she argues that the next era of space exploration should be focused on improving life here at home.Sign up for our newsletter at techsurgepodcast.com for updates on upcoming TechSurge Live Summits and future episodes.Links:Ariel Ekblaw on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/arielekblawAurelia Institute:https://www.aureliainstitute.orgRendezvous Robotics:https://www.rdvrobotics.comMIT Space Exploration Initiative:https://www.media.mit.edu/groups/space-exploration/overview/How Aurelia is Designing Self-Assembling Space Stations: https://www.fastcompany.com/91242689/how-the-aurelia-institute-is-designing-a-self-assembling-space-stationOverview Energy (Space-Based Solar Power): https://www.overviewenergy.comStarCatcher Industries (Space-to-Space Power Transmission): https://www.starcatcherindustries.comImpulse Space (Orbital Transportation): https://www.impulsespace.comReferences Mentioned During the DiscussionEarthrise - The Apollo 8 Photograph: https://www.nasa.gov/image-article/apollo-8-earthrise/Carl Sagan's “Pale Blue Dot”: https://www.planetary.org/worlds/pale-blue-dotBuckminster Fuller Institute: https://www.bfi.orgWatch Ariel's Talks & InterviewsAurelia Institute YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@AureliaInstituteAriel's TED Talk: https://youtu.be/IHrGK3Mu5K4?si=QwGHq1BEoB-QMUjkSpace Business Podcast - Self-Assembling Space Habitats with Ariel Ekblaw: https://spacebusiness.podbean.com/e/137-self-assembling-space-habitats-ariel-ekblaw-founder-ceo-aurelia-institute/Further ReadingNASA's Artemis Program: https://www.nasa.gov/artemisInternational Space Station (ISS): https://www.nasa.gov/international-space-stationAurelia Institute's Vision for Humanity's Future in Space: https://www.aureliainstitute.orgMIT News: Supporting Mission-Driven Space Innovation: https://news.mit.edu/2025/supporting-mission-driven-space-innovation-aurelia-institute-0710Timestamps:[00:00] Highlights[00:34] Welcome to the Episode[02:33] The New Space Race Begins[04:10] Meet Dr. Ariel Ekblaw[06:30] Why We Explore Space? [12:53] How She Discovered Self-Assembly at MIT [17:10] How TESSERAE Tiles Build Themselves[20:14] How the Tiles Coordinate Like a Swarm[24:47] Repairing and Reconfiguring Structures in Orbit[28:32] Why the Space Industry Is Exploding Now[34:25] The Case for AI Data Centers in Space[45:21] How Much Compute Will Move to Space?[48:40] Why This Space Era Is Different[52:24] The Growing Problem of Space Debris[55:14] Building the Next SpaceX[57:27] What Could Go Wrong in Space?[59:33 ] How Many Hours of Gravity Do Humans Need?[01:00:38] Why We Should Build in Low Earth Orbit First[01:05:09] Should We Really Colonize Mars?[01:11:27] Could You Commute to Space for Work?[01:13:50] Who Makes the Rules in Space?[01:22:30] What's Overhyped and Underhyped in Space[01:26:57]What's the Real Story in Space?
