In this Pulse of the Practice conversation, Paul Miller unpacks why the best “tax planning season” is all year long—not just Q4. With many firm initiatives already targeting 2026, Paul shares how leading firms translate today's client conversations into concrete capacity, revenue, and staffing plans for the next 12–24 months.Key takeaways:Listen for life‑event signals. Clients rarely say “I need an exit plan.” They hint at transitions—succession, burnout, relocation, health, or market shifts. Train your team to hear those cues and start planning early.Valuation isn't a finish line; it's a starting point. Regularly benchmark the business so owners can align pricing, client mix, and structure with their eventual exit timeline.Make planning continuous. Replace last‑minute Q4 models with a cadence of mini‑check‑ins that combine numbers with narrative: goals for the next 1–5 years, risk tolerance, and capacity constraints—both client and firm‑side.Charge for strategy with confidence. Longstanding relationships don't make advisory “free.” Clarify scope, package outcomes (e.g., exit readiness, tax savings roadmap, sale prep), and communicate the value long before a transaction looms.Redesign roles for impact. Shift staff from “cranking numbers” to managing relationships and discovery. The result: better insights, earlier interventions, and more profitable engagements.Think 2026 now. If 75% of your big projects already point to 2026, formalize forecasts, staffing plans, and pricing updates today.Whether your clients are five years from a sale or just exploring growth options, this episode shows how to move from reactive calculations to proactive advisory—without awkward money talks.Timestamps00:00 Intro and why planning sneaks up on firms03:55 Why 2026 planning starts today06:45 Spotting exit triggers in normal conversations11:15 Numbers vs. life events: bringing both into planning16:15 Pricing advisory in long‑term relationships20:25 When to discuss valuation (and how often)24:20 Turning staff into relationship managersKeywords (primary/secondary/long‑tail) Primary: year‑round tax planning, advisory services for accounting firms, business valuation, exit planning, 2026 firm planning Secondary: CPA firm capacity planning, client discovery, pricing advisory, scope management, relationship management, revenue projections Long‑tail: how to price advisory for long‑term clients, signs a business is ready to sell, continuous tax planning vs Q4, training staff for client advisory, building a 2026 capacity plan

Interview with Frederick H. Earnest, President & CEO of Vista GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/from-mega-mines-to-lean-machines-rio2-ltd-vista-golds-blueprint-for-fast-track-gold-production-7298Recording date: 16th September 2025Vista Gold Corp (TSX:VGZ) presents a compelling investment opportunity through its strategic transformation of the Mt Todd Gold Project, Australia's second largest undeveloped gold asset and the largest not owned by an existing producer. The company's recent feasibility study represents a fundamental strategic pivot that has created enhanced economics, reduced capital requirements, and multiple pathways for value realization.The cornerstone of Vista Gold's investment thesis lies in its decision to redesign Mt Todd from a massive 50,000 ton per day operation requiring over $1 billion in initial capital to a more focused 15,000 ton per day operation with $425 million capex—a 59% reduction that makes financing significantly more achievable. This strategic shift prioritizes grade over volume, raising the cut-off grade from 0.35 g/t to 0.5 g/t, resulting in a 23% improvement in reserve grade while maintaining over 5 million ounces of gold reserves.The redesigned project delivers exceptional economics with an NPV5 of $1.1 billion using a conservative $2,500 gold price assumption. At $3,300 gold price, closer to current market levels above $3,600, the NPV increases to $2.2 billion with an IRR approaching 45%. The production profile shows consistent output of 153,000 ounces annually over the first 15 years, providing predictable cash flow generation that appeals to investors seeking stable gold exposure.The market has responded overwhelmingly positively to Vista Gold's strategic direction, with shares surging 133% from 93 cents to $2.17 following the July feasibility study publication. This appreciation reflects both the favorable gold price environment and increased recognition of the project's improved risk-reward profile, demonstrating investor confidence in management's strategic execution.Vista Gold's strategic approach provides investors with exposure to three distinct value realization scenarios: joint venture partnerships, potential sale or corporate transactions, and self-development. This optionality ensures the company can adapt to market conditions and capitalize on the most favorable outcome for shareholders. The reduced capital requirements have expanded the pool of potential joint venture partners, while the project's improved economics make it more attractive for corporate transactions.Mt Todd's unique positioning as Australia's largest undeveloped gold project not owned by a producer provides significant strategic value in the current consolidation environment. The project benefits from Australia's political stability, established mining infrastructure, and proximity to Asian gold demand centers, reducing development risk compared to emerging market alternatives.Vista Gold offers investors exposure to a premier undeveloped gold asset with management that has demonstrated strategic flexibility to optimize shareholder value. The combination of proven reserves exceeding 5 million ounces, enhanced project economics, reduced capital requirements, and multiple development pathways positions the company as an attractive vehicle for gold sector exposure. With gold prices providing substantial operational margins above feasibility study assumptions and strong market validation through share price appreciation, Vista Gold represents a compelling opportunity for investors seeking exposure to Australia's gold sector through a strategically positioned development company.View Vista Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/vista-gold-corporationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

I explore six powerful lessons from taking nearly three weeks completely unplugged from work, showing how presence, rhythm, and intentional boundaries can bring peace and clarity to life and business. This summer's three-week RV trip with my family changed me in ways I didn't expect. I unplugged more deeply than I ever have since starting my business in 2010, and it was a complete reset for my mind, body, and spirit. In this episode, I'm opening up about the powerful lessons I brought home from that stillness, things about trusting my body, honoring my natural rhythm, and letting go of what doesn't serve me. My hope is that you'll find inspiration to create your own space for rest and clarity, no matter how long you can step away. - Listen to your body: Pay attention to physical and emotional signals, they're guiding you toward alignment, not working against you. - Honor your natural rhythm: Protect the pace that fuels your best energy and creativity, making it non-negotiable in your schedule. - Recognize the life you already have: Notice the moments that feel like your dream life and intentionally create more of them now. - Let go of being everything to everyone: Release the urge to hold everything together for others and prioritize what supports you back. - Redesign your work habits: Set tech boundaries that protect your energy, like limiting email checks or removing autopilot social media scrolling.

On this episode, David Wollen and special guest Mark Meynell discuss topics ranging from transhumanism to what it looks like to trust God in this moment in history.

Are you in your late 40s or beyond?If so, you have decades of valuable experience, a powerful network, and a laundry list of success metrics. But lately, you may be feeling stuck in your career. * You're no longer moving up. * You're watching your younger colleagues get promoted. * Recruiters ghost you more often now. * Job interviews stall out even when you think you interviewed well. You're too experienced for entry-level or mid-level roles. And when you aim for more senior leadership or executive roles, you discover they want someone with 25 years of experience who's only 35 years old. Heaven help you if you get laid off now. It's not a pretty job market for anyone, especially an older worker. “People laid off at higher ages are less likely to move into a new field than those who quit, said Kevin Cahill, an economist at FTI Consulting. “Ageism and higher compensation expectations can be obstacles to re-employment, he said.” (source)* It takes nearly 26 weeks, on average, for people ages 55 to 64 to find a job, compared with 19 weeks for people ages 25 to 34, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.* Older career workers who find new jobs take an 11% pay cut, on average, according to a forthcoming study Cahill co-wrote.So, why not take an early retirement? Well, I bet you're not there yet. Financially, emotionally, or physically. The sad truth is that people who retire sooner die earlier. Believe me, you're not alone in feeling this way and facing this issue. This “messy middle” of our professional careers is real, and it's brutal.But it's also where your next move can be your most powerful. I know it doesn't feel like it right now, but reinventing yourself can lead to living the best years of your life. I'm living proof, and there are lots of us who have done it. It's been over 15 years since I fled my old corporate career to pivot into something new. I built my own businesses, started working out every day, and reinvested in my most important relationships. My sense of loss and depression shifted into joy and fulfillment. I've never been happier! The Messy Middle You're not imagining things, and it's not just you. The job market has shifted under your feet while the economy has been struggling, and political chaos ensues. * Good roles are becoming rarer, and expectations are higher.* Companies are cutting layers of middle and senior management.* They are also eliminating entry-level roles and leaning on fewer employees augmented with AI. * Ageism is real (especially in tech and startups), but hard to prove. * AI is quietly replacing parts of your job.* Younger, cheaper hires are more appealing than the cost of more experienced employees.You didn't do anything wrong. But the system isn't built for you anymore.“The tide has definitely turned against tech workers,” said Catherine Bracy, the founder and chief executive of TechEquity, a nonprofit that pushes for economic inclusion in the industry. “Companies have even more leverage to use against workers, and A.I. is supercharging that.” (source)Traditional Career Advice Fails You “Just update your LinkedIn and polish your resume! Start easy applying to hundreds of jobs every week.”Yeah… no. When you've had a long, complex career, playing the “cold-apply resume” game is a sure-fire way to lose. The hiring process is automated and biased. Most online applications are dead ends, and older workers are screwed. You need a new strategy for this new game.Your leverage is different nowAt this stage of your career, you have leverage that younger people don't. Stop being shy about using your advantages!* Relationships: The network you've built for decades is more powerful than you think.* Reputation: People know your name. They've seen your work. They already trust you.* Experience: You've led, built, scaled, failed, recovered, and learned. Your insights are rare and valuable.Three paths out of the messy middle1. Reposition and rebrand2. Redesign your role3. Find more purposeI go into more detail in the podcast audio, so scroll up, hit play, and listen. Real stories of reinvention * David Jesse - Executive Product Leader, advisor, coach, and founder of Crescendo Product Group * Ha Nguyen - Founder and Managing Partner at NextStep Advisors * Maureen Wiley Clough - Host of It Gets Late Early, a podcast and community of tech employees bringing awareness to ageismNone of them waited for someone to “give them a shot.” They stopped playing the game that was rigged against them. They created their next opportunity.You can too.What to do this monthHere's your 3-step personal challenge:* Rewrite one part of the “Story of You”What's the outdated identity or job title you're clinging to? Rewrite your LinkedIn headline and About section to reflect who you are now and who you want to become. * Reignite one dormant relationshipSomeone in your network already knows your value. Reach out, reconnect, and have a real conversation. I created a free CRM to help with this. * Map out your next move If you weren't looking for a job, what kind of business might you build? What problem could you solve? How could you repackage your skills as an offer to a client? Let's define your “Next Act” togetherDoes all of this feel familiar? Did this article hit a nerve? Good! That means you're ready.You don't have to figure this out alone. I work with experienced professionals like you every day to help you:* Clarify what you really want next in your life * Reposition your talent, knowledge, skills, and experience* Build new opportunities, but on your terms this time Book a free call with me!

This episode, we're pausing the hustle to take a big-picture look at what really matters in both business and life. Danielle Hayden, CEO of Kickstart Accounting, Inc., sits down with Taylor Thompson, founder of Personal Brand House, bestselling author of More Life, podcast host, and national speaker, to talk about what it means to build a business that gives you more life, not just more work and revenue.  Taylor brings a refreshing take on entrepreneurship—less “do more,” more “do what matters to you”. From overcoming burnout to designing a lifestyle-first business model, Taylor shares personal insights, financial mindset wisdom, and actionable steps to help you avoid deathbed regret and define success on your terms. Key Takeaways:  Define Your “Enough”: Growth is great, but not if it's at the cost of the things that really matter to you in life. Know what enough looks like for you and structure your business to support that.  Start with the Life You Want: Reverse-engineer your business model based on your ideal calendar, energy, and goals—not arbitrary revenue benchmarks.  Zone of Genius ≠ Zone of Aliveness: Just because you're good at something doesn't mean it should be your business. Fulfillment matters just as much as skill.  Detach Your Worth from Your Numbers: Your financials aren't a report card. Use them as a tool for informed decisions, not as a reflection for your identity.  Pause to Notice Meaningful Moments: “More life” isn't only about having more stuff. It's about feeling more joy, presence, and alignment in everyday moments.  Topics Discussed: (01:05 – 03:52) Taylor's Mission: Helping others avoid deathbed regrets with tactical strategies to build businesses that prioritize what matters most to them (03:53 – 06:28) Reclaiming Freedom: Monetizing a Personal Brand & Restructuring Your Business Model to Work Smarter, Not Harder (06:29 – 10:14) Trading Time for Money and Why Knowing Your “Enough” is Essential (10:15 – 13:56) Two Exercises: How to Figure Out What You Really Want & How Much Time and Money You Need to Get That  (13:58 – 16:10) What a Lifestyle Business Looks Like: Calendar-First, Value-Aligned, Purpose-Driven (16:11 – 18:15) The “More Life” Concept and How You Can Implement It Logistically (18:16 – 21:09) Creating “More Life” for Yourself Even as a Workaholic (21:18 – 25:09) Detaching Self-Worth from Financial Performance and Using Data Over Drama (25:10 – 26:29) How to Explore What Having “More Life” Feels Like (26:33 – 28:47) Where You Can Connect & Find Taylor Thompson's Work   Resources: Taylor's Book | More Life Work with Taylor | https://www.heytaylorthompson.com/pbm  Follow Taylor on IG | @TheTaylorThompson Taylor's Podcast | High Performer   Book a Call with Kickstart Accounting, Inc.: https://www.kickstartaccountinginc.com/book    Connect with Kickstart Accounting, Inc.: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/Kickstartaccounting YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@businessbythebooks  Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/kickstartaccountinginc

  The recent Donkey Kong redesign featured in Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza got us thinking about other video game character redesigns. When companies decide it's time for a character to get a new outfit, haircut, or entirely new look, you can always count on people having strong opinions, and we're no exception as we list our favorite game character redesigns of all time.  After that, we talk about Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, more EA Sports College Football 26, some Nintendo news, and Uno, for some reason.  Question of the Week: What's your least favorite character redesign, games or otherwise?  Vidjagame Apocalypse theme by Matthew Joseph Payne.

Governor Newsom is throwing support behind a re-imagined San Quentin Rehabilitation Center in Marin County.

How do you transform banks that have been built over centuries for a world where artificial intelligence operates 10 times faster than the digital revolution? We're not just talking about implementing new technology; we're reimagining banking for customers who interact daily with AI assistants and may soon entrust their money management entirely to intelligent systems. However, banks that rush into action without understanding their organizational and cultural legacies will find their investments yielding disappointing results. The issue isn't the technology; it's that we equate activity with progress, making top-down decisions that overlook what's happening on the ground. Our guest on the Banking Transformed podcast, Sophie Heller, is the newly appointed Chief Transformation Officer at BNP Paribas CPBS, bringing a unique perspective that combines strategic technology leadership with deep insights from behavioral sciences and organizational sociology. Today, we explore why the pause before progress might be more important than the speed of implementation, how behavioral sciences are becoming essential tools for transformation leaders, and what it takes to redesign banking for an AI-powered world. Welcome to Shaping Banking's Next – podcast episodes hosted by Jim Marous and brought to you by Infosys Finacle and Qorus Global. These compelling episodes are inspired by the ‘Innovation in Retail Banking' research, a report that has been tracking innovation trends, investment priorities, emerging business models, and real-world case studies for over 15 years. In these episodes, visionaries, changemakers, and digital pioneers from the world's leading banks will share how they're driving innovation, transforming the banking value chain, and reimagining the future of banking. Join them as they explore bold strategies, innovative business models and next-gen technologies shaping the industry today and defining what's next.

What happens when AI moves from experimental tool to everyday shopping assistant? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Liva Ralaivola, Head of the Criteo AI Lab, to unpack how artificial intelligence is reshaping the way we discover, compare, and purchase products online. Speaking to me from the south of France, Liva shares insights from Criteo's latest consumer research, revealing that 91 percent of shoppers expect AI-personalised recommendations within the next two years. We explore why that shift is happening so quickly, what it means for retailers, and the challenges of balancing innovation with transparency. From price comparisons to budget planning and dynamic creative generation, shoppers are already using AI tools in ways that few could have predicted even a year ago. We also discuss the complexity of integrating AI into retail environments, where business constraints, stock levels, and customer expectations vary dramatically. Liva highlights how Criteo is tailoring deep learning models to improve relevance, optimise campaigns, and support ethical outcomes. He also explains why AI is not yet plug-and-play, and why collaboration between AI specialists and business teams is key to unlocking real value. Looking ahead, Liva shares his thoughts on how data may evolve into a kind of personal currency, with users controlling what they share and how much personalisation they receive. From AI wallets to loyalty programs driven by interaction history, the landscape is changing fast—and businesses need to be ready. So what's your take? Are consumers ready to control their own data in exchange for more relevant experiences? And how should retailers rethink personalisation in an age of growing privacy expectations? Let me know your thoughts and join the conversation.

It's a slowish news week ahead of some very busy news weeks, so of course Nilay and David start the show with a long discussion about party speakers. Eventually, they get into the news, beginning with some of the huge Apple redesigns planned for WWDC in June. For the first time in a long time, the stakes for Apple's software teams feel really high. After that, the hosts talk about Nilay's recent interview with Google CEO Sundar Pichai, and what the AI-ification of everything means for the future of the web. Finally, in the lightning round, it's time for another Brendan Carr is a Dummy, plus some talk about the Nintendo Switch 2, a bit of confusing tariff news, and more.
