Don’t retire. Redesign. Join our small group program beginning in January. Learn more. ___________________________ Will your retirement life look like the glossy images you see in the brochures? Wise up. There’s a real transition that happens when the paychecks stop and you move into your new life. But here’s the thing: it presents an opportunity for rewarding personal growth, or even transformation, that may not be apparent to you at first. Tom Marks spent decades defining himself by his profession and then faced such a transition when he stepped away. Tom shares his journey from being a high-pressure boss to finding his ‘path of happiness.’ We discuss the danger of the ‘hedonic treadmill,’ the specific mistakes to avoid in your transition to retirement, and why at this stage of life, we are all entitled to a ‘satchel of do-overs.’ Tom Marks joins us from Arizona. ________________________ Bio Tom Marks survived 48 years in the advertising business and has lived to write about it. He has won the American Advertising Awards more than sixty-five times for his writing, including TV commercials, print ads, and magazine and newspaper articles. He spent many years on the professional speakers circuit and apparently survived that, too. His thought leadership workshops for Fortune 500 companies, as well as for small and medium-sized businesses, have brought him national acclaim, and his love of the original thought leaders, Socrates, his star-student, Plato, and Plato’s ace student, Aristotle has made Tom a favorite among CEOs across the US who want to learn about corporate ethics and its origins. Tom’s new book is Coming of Age in Retirement: An Advertising Executive’s Story of Revelation and Enlightenment, also a national bestseller. Tom has won the Gold Medal for Best Nonfiction Book from the Nonfiction Writers Association, three International Impact Book Awards, the POTY Award, two Literary Titan Awards, the Reader Views Award, and two American Book Fest Awards. ___________________________ For More on Tom Marks Coming of Age in Retirement: An Advertising Executive’s Story of Revelation and Enlightenment The Peaceful Retiree ____________________________ Podcast Conversations You May Like Retiring: Creating a Life That Works for You – Teresa Amabile The Good Life – Marc Schulz, PhD Make Your Next Years Your Best Years – Harry Agress, MD _____________________________ I'm Just Asking for a Friend Retirement brings so many tough questions.

And so I had to let go of that stuff. I had to let go of working with these people… But I let go of the things I really like to do, which was write and direct TV commercials… But that was probably the hardest thing to let go. And I still find myself, Joe, thinking about that, those days.” On “The Do-Over” “We are entitled to the satchel of do-overs, but we are not entitled to a do-over of a do-over. We can make the mistake and we shouldn’t be hard on ourselves, but we’ve got to move past it.” On Miserable Retirees “I tried to understand why people would be so unhappy and actually miserable in retirement. And it wasn’t that they woke up on the wrong side of the bed. They woke up on the wrong side of life.” On the Danger of Possessions “Most of that stuff are possessions. But, you know, they accumulate and they just become baggage. And there is so much research that tells us that as much as we chase this stuff, it doesn’t define happiness because the goalposts just move further and further away.”

Ideally, it should be simple enough for a child to draw it from memory. So, how did Montana end up with such a complicated flag? Learn more in this episode of The Big Why.

Rachel Cunliffe teaches us about transforming a cluttered website into a calm, focused space that serves both you and your readers. Rachel is the founder of Cre8d Design, a web design and development studio that helps creators and businesses build websites that are beautiful, clean, user-friendly, and fast. Cre8d has worked in the space for over two decades, specializing in custom WordPress design, audience experience, and content strategy. At Cre8d, the team partners closely with clients to clarify their goals, organize their content, and create websites that genuinely reflect who they are and that people love to use. Their work blends thoughtful design, modern tech, and a deep respect for the people behind the websites. Over time, even the best food blogs start to feel like overstuffed pantries: too many ingredients, not enough order. Web designer Rachel Cunliffe joins us to explain how to know when it's time for a redesign and how to approach it with clarity, calm, and intention. She breaks down the process of simplifying your site, creating a distraction-free reader experience, and reclaiming the joy in your digital space. This is your invitation to pause, tidy up, and let your creativity breathe again. Key points discussed include: Trust your gut: If your site feels messy, your readers feel it too. Design for calm: People crave clarity, not chaos - keep it simple and focused. Your website is your pantry: Take everything out, organize what matters, toss what's expired. Pop-ups aren't the enemy, but timing matters: Be intentional about when and where you use them. Write like a human again: Authentic stories connect faster than optimized fluff. Your brand should evolve: Outdated design can quietly hold you back. Simplify the tech: A site that's easy to update keeps you consistent and confident. Distraction-free = trust: The cleaner the experience, the stronger the connection. Connect with Rachel Cunliffe Website | Instagram

Work design isn't just about dividing tasks and streamlining processes – it's about shaping how people experience their work: the meaning they find and the autonomy they have.In the age of AI, this takes on new urgency. As technology reshapes work, organisations must choose whether to let jobs become narrower and more transactional, or redesign them to drive motivation, resilience and performance.In this episode, Professor Sharon Parker – Director of the Centre for Transformative Work Design at Curtin University – shares how HR leaders can apply evidence-based work design to create healthy, meaningful roles and ensure people remain at the centre of transformation.SHOW NOTESFurther learningAHRI's contemporary workforce redesign short course: https://bit.ly/4hVCh0rAHRI's organisational design short course: https://bit.ly/49K5WrhSharon Parker's SMART work design model: https://bit.ly/4991zGbHRM article featuring Sharon Parker's research: https://bit.ly/3WMcmyLSharon Parker's book Transformative Work Design: https://bit.ly/47LZptBConnect:Connect with Sharon Parker on LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4qTOczSFollow AHRI on LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3LIdUXZAHRI members can join the AHRI LinkedIn Lounge to access bonus content and continue the discussion: https://bit.ly/3LIdWPBNot yet an AHRI member?

Not every business pivot starts with a breakdown. Sometimes it hits quietly — like staring at yet another sales page for a client you genuinely like and thinking, I can't keep doing this. That was the moment for Natalie Taylor. You can love your clients, be fully booked, and still know something has to change. In this episode, Natalie shares how she went from burned-out and booked-out to building a business that actually fits her life — not the other way around. Topics discussed in this episode include: Natalie's quiet "I'm done" moment that changed everything. Burnout in a business that looks successful from the outside. How Natalie shifted from copywriter to strategic consultant. Letting go of clients + safety nets without burning it all down. The mindset shifts that made her reinvention actually stick.

Instead, use action-specific steps like “Add to Cart” or “Learn More” to lead customers smoothly to purchase.Focus on Simplicity & Clarity (00:10:43)Clarity always trumps persuasion. Present the next necessary action clearly and reduce choices to avoid customer confusion.Start Optimization at the Checkout, Work Backwards (00:27:51)Always optimize conversion pages (checkout, cart, product page) before iterating on the homepage or filters.Tweetable Quotes"The data is agnostic.

N'ton City Council Pres Alex Jarrett: the candidates he supports & why. Former N'ton City Council Pres Jim Nash: Main St redesign, POP & the future.

Contributing writer Jake Fogleman and I discuss the country's largest gun-control group taking a victory lap after Glock announced changes to the design of its popular pistols. We talk about the reputational risks for Glock in appearing to bow to pressure from gun-control groups and progressive lawmakers. We also cover a recent court ruling out of Florida where a state judge struck down a law setting 21 as the minimum age to legally carry a handgun.

Last week we mapped the mindset, the stories you tell yourself, and the move from autopilot to intention. This week, we pick up the thread and turn it into action. We look at identity and habit, and how Daniel Kahneman's brain operating System 1 loves routine while System 2 builds new skills. We name the real worries around jobs, inequality and risk, and keep ethics, data care and the Environment in view. Then we bring it back to you, your relationships, your leadership and your WellBeing. Start here when you plan how AI works with you:Mindset to action: Notice your first reaction. Choose curiosity. Make one intentional change.Identity and value: When you hear “that is not me”, pause. Your value is more than tasks. Choose how you show up.Make the path easy: Put one AI tool on your home screen. Use one ready prompt. Try one focused task this week.Redesign your role: Map You and AI in a simple Venn. List what AI can do. Add what only you can input, interpret and apply.You will leave with one clear aim. Choose intention over fear, so you happen to the world, rather than the world happening to you.

What story are you writing that you'll be proud to tell your grandkids? In this milestone 100th episode, discover the decision-making framework that transforms how you approach every choice in your dental practice and life.After six years and 100 episodes, Dr. Allison House and Shawn Zajas step back from clinical techniques to explore something more profound: the legacy we're creating through the courage we demonstrate and the authenticity we express. What begins as a conversation about preserving loved ones' voices on old cassettes evolves into a revolutionary framework for decision-making that cuts through fear, overthinking, and playing small.The core insight? Live your life in a way that you're actually proud to tell your grandkids. This simple question becomes a powerful filter for choices both personal and professional in dental practice. Should you speak up about that ethical concern? Pursue that innovative treatment approach? Redesign your practice to align with your values? Ask yourself: What story am I creating?Dr. House shares the profound experience of hearing her late father's voice on coaching videos from the 1990s—a reminder that the wisdom and authenticity we express today become the inheritance we leave tomorrow. This vulnerable moment opens a broader conversation about how dental professionals can ensure their legacy extends beyond clinical excellence to encompass the whole person they've become.The episode tackles a powerful truth revealed by someone facing mortality: "I didn't regret anything that I did. I regretted things that I didn't do." This becomes a clarion call for dental professionals to step off the sideline, share their message imperfectly, and live authentically even when outcomes are uncertain. Whether you're experiencing dental burnout, questioning your path, or simply wondering if there's more to practice than production numbers, this conversation offers clarity through the legacy lens.✨ KEY TAKEAWAYS:• The "Grandkids Framework" for decision-making: Before major choices, ask "How will I explain this to my grandchildren?" - transforms ethical dilemmas, career pivots, and practice decisions [6:33]• We don't regret what we tried and failed at; we regret dreams never pursued - reframes risk-taking in dental practice and authentic leadership [8:37]• "Cheap lessons vs. expensive lessons": Learning to pivot, persist, and stay authentic costs less early in your career than building a practice you'll need to redesign later [13:36]• The compound effect of showing up: Six years and 100 episodes later, meaningful impact exists simply because they made the decision to begin imperfectly [16:47]• Your patients are full of wisdom and stories - creating space for authentic connection transforms practice dynamics and professional fulfillment [0:41]

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
