At Black Hat USA 2025, Danny Jenkins, CEO of ThreatLocker, shares how his team is proving that effective cybersecurity doesn't have to be overly complex. The conversation centers on a straightforward yet powerful principle: security should be simple enough to implement quickly and consistently, while still addressing the evolving needs of diverse organizations.Jenkins emphasizes that the industry has moved beyond selling “magic” solutions that promise to find every threat. Instead, customers are demanding tangible results—tools that block threats by default, simplify approvals, and make exceptions easy to manage. ThreatLocker's platform is built on this premise, enabling over 54,000 organizations worldwide to maintain a secure environment without slowing business operations.A highlight from the event is ThreatLocker's Defense Against Configurations (DAC) module. This feature performs 170 daily checks on every endpoint, aligning them with compliance frameworks like NIST and FedRAMP. It not only detects misconfigurations but also explains why they matter and how to fix them. Jenkins admits the tool even revealed gaps in ThreatLocker's own environment—issues that were resolved in minutes—proving its practical value.The discussion also touches on the company's recent FedRAMP authorization process, a rigorous journey that validates both the product's and the company's security maturity. For federal agencies and contractors, this means faster compliance with CMMC and NIST requirements. For commercial clients, it's an assurance that they're working with a partner whose internal security practices meet some of the highest standards in the industry.As ThreatLocker expands its integrations and modules, Jenkins stresses that simplicity remains the guiding principle. This is achieved through constant engagement with customers—at trade shows, in the field, and within the company's own managed services operations. By actively using their own products at scale, the team identifies friction points and smooths them out before customers encounter them.In short, the message from the booth at Black Hat is clear: effective security comes from strong fundamentals, simplified management, and a relentless focus on the user experience.Learn more about ThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Danny Jenkins, CEO of ThreatLocker | On LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/dannyjenkinscyber/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from ThreatLocker: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/threatlockerLearn more and catch more stories from our Black Hat USA 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/bhusa25Learn more about ITSPmagazine Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story

Most of what we do with our money is unconscious - and it keeps us poor.

In this raw and revealing episode, we sit down with IFBB Bikini Olympia champion Nathalia Melo, who takes us behind the curtain of bodybuilding, body image, and motherhood. From hiding her body three months before winning the Olympia to rebuilding her relationship with food, fitness, and herself after two kids, Nathalia opens up about the very real struggles behind the "perfect" body.We talk about:How toxic behaviors get glamorized in the fitness industryThe ripple effect of body image on kids — even when we think they aren't watchingResentment, routines, and why self-care is non-negotiableThe lies we tell ourselves (and others) about hormones, fat loss, and motivationHow Nathalia's mindset shifted when motherhood entered the pictureIf you've ever felt like you're failing because you can't do it all - this one's for you.Key Takeaways:Winning doesn't fix body image. Even at her physical peak, Nathalia struggled with shame and insecurity.Behavior speaks louder than words. Kids pick up on how we treat our bodies — even when we're not talking about it.Extremes don't work long-term. Whether it's competing or crash dieting, unsustainable methods erode confidence over time.Resentment grows in silence. Sacrificing yourself endlessly leads to burnout — and bitterness toward the ones you love.Motherhood is a mindset shift. Fitness after kids isn't about bouncing back — it's about redefining what matters.Listen Now If You:Feel stuck in an all-or-nothing cycle with your body or dietWant to raise kids without passing on your body image baggageAre tired of the toxic positivity that tells you to “just be grateful”Need permission to put yourself first, without guiltThank you Cured Nutrition for sponsoring our podcast!We LOVE Cured products and know you will, too!

In this episode, I'm sharing a personal update and a powerful reminder: you don't need to sacrifice your freedom, family, or well-being to build a successful business. I just returned from two incredible weeks—one in Thailand celebrating my 50th birthday with my son, and the other in Sydney immersed in high-level business strategy and mentoring. And through it all, my business continued to flow beautifully. That didn't happen by chance. It happened because I've consciously designed it that way. This is the heart of what I teach in all my programs—especially through my Soul Goal Mapping Challenge, The Awakened Soul Program and Soul Goal Academy. It's about creating a business and lifestyle that's aligned with your soul, your energy, and your values. One that gives you time to breathe, to travel, to be present, and to enjoy the life you're creating—not just work endlessly for it. In this episode, you'll discover: ✨ Why the “hustle harder” model is outdated—and what to do instead✨ The #1 thing to stop doing that's draining your energy and freedom✨ What to start doing instead to feel more peace, productivity, and joy✨ My 5 soul-aligned steps to design a life and business that works for you✨ Real talk about how I've structured my business to run without me while I travel and recharge Whether you're an entrepreneur, a coach, a heart-led leader, or someone dreaming of more freedom and purpose in your life—this episode will inspire and guide you to take the first (or next) aligned step.

He said the words that most don't dare to say. She asked the questions most don't think to voice. In this powerful sit-down, Glo and Skillet peel back the layers of emotional labor, expectations, and silent compromises men often make in relationships. Vulnerability meets insight as they break down what "sacrifice" really means—and who truly notices.

The Power of a Love Letter When Shannon sat down to write her love letters to her children, she didn't expect just how meaningful the process would be. What began as a simple act of putting words on paper quickly became one of the most profound steps in her family's legacy journey. The letters reflected a lifetime of love, intention, and values that now had a permanent home. https://www.youtube.com/live/VzJGf5fD2Jk For Shannon and her husband, legacy planning for families wasn't about cold documents or rigid legal structures. It was about love, clarity, and making sure their kids were taken care of—not just financially but emotionally and relationally. Not because of the words alone—though they were beautiful and heartfelt—but because those words captured something far deeper: a lifetime of intention, care, and values that now had a permanent home. For Shannon and her husband, legacy planning for families wasn't about cold documents or rigid legal structures. It was about love, clarity, and making sure their kids were taken care of—not just financially but emotionally and relationally. This is the heart of legacy planning for families: making sure the people you love feel your guidance, presence, and blessing long after you're gone. It's not just about transferring assets—it's about transferring identity, vision, and faith. And when done well, legacy planning becomes a source of peace, not pressure. Their journey through the Seven Generations Legacy process turned what they feared would be an overwhelming task into one of the most empowering experiences of their life. And they didn't do it alone. They did it with guidance, structure, support—and a shared commitment to doing legacy differently. The Power of a Love LetterLegacy Planning for Families is More Than PaperworkStarting the Journey: A Shared Dream, Two Different PrioritiesBringing the Kids Into the ConversationWriting Love Letters: The Emotional Heart of the LegacyCreating a Structure That Feels Like Coming HomeWhy This Matters for Your FamilyLearn More in the Podcast EpisodeBook A Strategy Call Legacy Planning for Families is More Than Paperwork When most people hear "legacy planning for families," their minds jump straight to legal documents, trusts, and spreadsheets. But the truth is, your legacy isn't built by lawyers alone. It's not just about asset protection or tax strategy. As we learned from our client Shannon on the Money Advantage Podcast, the real work of legacy planning is deeply human. It's about putting into words what matters most. It's about facing the hard questions that too often get avoided. And it's about making decisions now that reflect not just your net worth, but your heart. In this blog, we're sharing the real-life story of Shannon and her family. You'll walk through their experience of legacy planning with the Seven Generations Legacy coaching program, and come away with: A clear definition of what legacy planning for families actually involves A step-by-step account of how to design a plan that aligns money with mission A framework for engaging adult children in meaningful, productive ways Insight into why emotional clarity is just as important as financial clarity And encouragement to start your own journey before it's too late Because this kind of work doesn't just benefit your kids when you're gone. It changes the way your family lives together today. Starting the Journey: A Shared Dream, Two Different Priorities When Shannon and David began this journey, they were on the same team but holding different blueprints. David's background, having grown up with limited financial resources, made it important for him to build a financial legacy. For him, the goal was protection and provision. He wanted to pass along what he had worked so hard to build. Shannon's focus was more relational. She wanted to ensure their kids had emotional security and that nothing about th...

If you've ever worked in software, you know the pressure to ship fast is real. But in today's world, where AI can generate entire codebases in minutes, that pressure is colliding with something else: complexity. More code, more tools, more risk…and somehow, slower delivery. In fact, according to a recent report from GitHub, developers now spend over half their time not coding, but testing, validating, or just waiting for access to the right environment.That's where today's guest comes in.I'm joined by Arjun Iyer, co-founder and CEO of Signadot, and someone who's spent more than 20 years deep in the world of distributed systems and cloud-native software. He's worked at places like AppDynamics, and he's tackling one of the biggest problems in software delivery: how do you move fast and maintain quality?We talk about the real-world bottleneck slowing teams down, why AI isn't the silver bullet because as Arjun shares just generating code doesn't make it production ready, and how concepts like “shift left” are giving teams a smarter way to build.

Offer God Your Everyday Ordinary LifeRomans 12:1 “So here is what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life-your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking around life- and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for Him.”When thinking and praying about what to talk about today I look back at scripture verses God has given to my prayer group recently. The first one that I saw was this one. I went to the Bible app on my phone as I did not bring my Bible with me today. It was set for the message translation and when I read this verse I felt the the Lord confirmed this is what He wanted me to talk about.This verse is likely one that you would recognize in another translation, as it is one that I definitely recognized. However, it seems very different in the message translation. In the New American Bible Revised Edition this verse says, “I urge you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to offer your bodies as al living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God, your spiritual worship.” Does that sound familiar?I have heard many people do talks about this verse and yet the message translation seems to come at it from a bit of a different point of view and that is what I felt the Lord wanted me to focus on today. I felt God wanted me to focus on the part that says, “Take your everyday, ordinary life- your sleeping, eating, going to work, and walking around life and place it before God as an offering.” What struck me with this is the thought that this is probably harder for many of us than to offer many other sacrifices.Many of you listening are wanting to live your lives walking boldly with Jesus. You are trying to pray every day, you may be saying the rosary often, if not daily, you may be fasting or do something other things as a sacrifice to the Lord. Praying isn't always easy, but it is familiar to many of us. Scripted prayers, especially if you are Catholic, are easy because you know all the words, you don't have to think about it, you could say those prayers from mass anywhere. You have them memorized. Sacrificing your time to pray, or to talk about God with others, or even to fast isn't that difficult because you know how to do it. You feel holier, or closer to the Lord when you are doing these things.However, what about the regular, every day parts of your life? Can you offer those to the Lord as an offering? Can you stop before you begin your day and offer your day up to the Lord? Can you invite Him into your day? I saw a YouTube video about this a few years ago and it has always stuck with me. It was a video with Father Mike Schmitz. I will summarize that video for you now. It was called “3 Steps to Unceasing Prayer,” Father Mike Schmitz.  If you google this you can watch the video yourself.  It is just over 5 minutes long.  In the YouTube video, Father Mike Schmitz lists three steps, he learned from St. Francis DeSales, that you could do to transform everything you do into a prayer.Ask God to be present.  Yes, God is always present and attentive to you, but by asking him to be present you are letting him know you will be present too.Offer this moment to God.  Offer him all the joy, the suffering, whatever you may be feeling, offer it to God.  Accept –Resolve to accept whatever comes out of this momentThis will not only transform how you have a relationship with God, it will transform how you live.  This is because when you are asking God to be attentive to you, you are allowing every moment to be a sacrament.  You are inviting God into that moment which makes it a channel of Grace.  Then, when you offer the moment up to him you make each moment a sacrifice. When you choose to accept the outcome you are making every moment a moment of surrender.  For instance you can do this when you are going to bed at night.  God, I ask you to be attentive to me and I am attentive to you.  I offer this night's sleep to you as a sacrifice, as a gift to you and I accept whatever comes out of it.God is not just with us when we are praying or when we are at church. He is not just with us when we are calling upon Him or calling out to Him. God is always with us. He really wants us to know that He is in the ordinary mundane parts of our life as well as the glorious parts where we are praying or participating in mass. He want us to know that He is not judging you for not making the time to pray. He is with you in all that you are doing.Yes, He would love for you to spend time sitting down with him one on one and talking  together. However, He is also happy when you talk with him while you are driving into work or when you are doing the dishes or the laundry. He is not demanding your full attention. He just wants to be with you in all the ways He can. Can you offer your suffering to God? Can you offer your joy to God? Can you offer it all to God? Why is it so hard for us to believe He is with us in the everyday things we do? Why do we strive so hard to Do so much for the Lord when He would much rather we Be with Him? He wants you to know you can invite Him into the simple everyday parts of you life too. He is already there anyway but when you offer it to Him then you are partnering with Him in all these parts of your day. How great would it be to partner with the Lord more throughout your day?Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening to this episode. Lord, please help us to invite you into every part of our day. Please help us to remember that you never leave our side. You are with us in everything we do, even the everyday parts of our life. Help us offer our entire day, all that we do to you. Help us to recognize you more as we go throughout our day. We love you Lord and we ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus's holy name, Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk Boldly with Jesus.

Remember Jesus loves you just as you are, and so do I! Have a blessed day!Today's Word from the Lord was received in January 2025 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group. If you have any questions about the prayer group, these words, or how to join us for a meeting, please email CatholicCharismaticPrayerGroup@gmail.com. Today's Word from the Lord is, “I can see the Lord, and he's smiling, and he's pouring down. It's almost like a gentle liquid on people, and he's saying, “I am empowering you. There's no reason to say that you can't. I am empowering you. Accept what I am giving with joy and gratitude. I am your Lord. Go and make me known. I have empowered you. This day, I have empowered you.” And it's just falling on certain people, and you have to say yes or no. Some people are saying no, while others are rejoicing.” www.findingtruenorthcoaching.comCLICK HERE TO DONATECLICK HERE to sign up for Mentoring CLICK HERE to sign up for Daily "Word from the Lord" emailsCLICK HERE to sign up for my newsletter & receive a free audio training about inviting Jesus into your daily lifeCLICK HERE to buy my book Total Trust in God's Safe Embrace

In this conversation with Bree Groff, author of "Today Was Fun" and who has advised executives at Microsoft, Google, Target, and Hilton through periods of organizational change, shares specific observations about leadership blind spots in large corporations and offers practical frameworks for creating workplace cultures that drive both performance and employee satisfaction.   Key Insights: The Professional Conformity Trap: Large organizations often mistake formality for competence, creating environments where rigid presentation styles and corporate jargon become proxies for professionalism. This stifles the creativity and authenticity that both employees and customers actually seek. Organizations that are "unapologetically themselves" create magnetic appeal, as demonstrated by early Google's distinctive culture.   The Psychological Safety Framework: Effective leaders implement simple tools to humanize workplace interactions. The "check-in" method—where meeting participants rate their current state on a scale of one to five and briefly explain why—transforms team dynamics by creating context for behavior and establishing emotional safety that enables better performance.   The Micro-Change Strategy: Rather than pursuing wholesale transformation, leaders create meaningful cultural shifts through "micro acts of mischief" and connection. These range from rearranging office furniture to facilitate collaboration, to sending brief acknowledgment messages to colleagues. Such small actions compound to create environments where creativity and engagement flourish.   The Joy-Performance Connection: Organizations that measure employee satisfaction with the same rigor they apply to productivity metrics discover that optimizing for workplace enjoyment simultaneously addresses communication gaps, decision-making delays, and other operational inefficiencies. As Groff explains, "to optimize for joy and fun means you're automatically optimizing for all of the other things that make a business successful."   Leadership Characteristics That Drive Culture Change: The most effective leaders demonstrate two key traits: they avoid taking themselves too seriously while thinking expansively about possibilities.

In this revealing conversation, freelance journalist and former coach Linda Flanagan describes how youth sports have transformed from neighborhood fun into a $30 billion industry that's reshaping American families. Drawing from her book "Take Back the Game: How Money and Mania Are Ruining Kids' Sports and Why It Matters," Flanagan explores the cultural shifts since the 1970s that have turned children's athletics into high-stakes enterprises demanding extraordinary parental sacrifice.The Parental Pressure Paradox* Parents now spend an average of 202 minutes (over 3 hours) daily on their children's athletics* 36% of families reduce family vacations and struggle to save money due to sports expensesThe College Myth * Only 6-7% of high school athletes go on to play in college, and just 2% of these receive any athletic scholarship money.Red Flags to Watch For in Youth Sports* Family life revolving entirely around one child's sports schedule* Siblings feeling resentful or left behind* Parents' emotional wellbeing tied to their child's athletic performance* Pressure to specialize in one sport before adolescence* Sacrificing family relationships, activities, friendships, and personal interestsFlanagan's controversial but liberating advice: "Flee the bleachers at the middle school gym, skip the tournament at school across town, resuscitate your own interests and relationships instead."This isn't about not caring for your children—it's about showing them that:* Their activities belong to them, not you* Adult life has purpose and joy beyond child-serving* Independence and resilience are valuable life skills* Your wellbeing matters tooThe Bottom LineYouth sports can be wonderful for children when kept in proper perspective. The key is resisting cultural pressures that turn childhood athletics into family-consuming enterprises. By maintaining balance, protecting family relationships, and modeling fulfilling adult lives, parents can help their children enjoy sports without sacrificing everything else that makes life meaningful.Website: lindaflanaganauthor.comResources Mentioned* "Take Back the Game" by Linda Flanagan* Aspen Institute Sports and Society Program research* Beyond Stigma Documentary on Women in Collegiate SportsThanks for listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast and reading A Mind of Her Own!

You want both: The freedom to design your schedule around your life AND the income that reflects your expertise. If you've been told you have to choose between flexibility and financial success, this episode is for you. Maybe you're the dietitian working all hours, taking calls during family time, and feeling like you're always "on." Or perhaps you're afraid that setting boundaries and creating the schedule you want will cost you clients and income. What if I told you that having both freedom and money isn't just possible -  it's the key to sustainable success? Here's the truth that nobody talks about: The dietitians making the most money aren't grinding themselves into the ground.
