Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast Episode Title: What is Corporate Credit and Why Every Business Needs It Episode Description What if your business could qualify for funding without putting your personal credit on the line? In this episode of the Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast, host Vicki Noethling welcomes Sue Schuster, Corporate Credit and Profit Acceleration Coach, for an eye-opening conversation about one of the most overlooked business growth strategies—corporate credit. Drawing on more than 20 years of experience as a successful entrepreneur, Sue shares how building and selling her own business led her to discover the incredible power of corporate credit. She explains how entrepreneurs can establish business credit tied to their EIN, access funding without relying on personal guarantees, and create a stronger financial foundation for long-term growth. Throughout the conversation, Sue debunks common myths surrounding corporate credit, explains why having a relationship with your bank isn’t the same as building business credit, and discusses the ideal time to begin establishing your company’s financial profile. She also shares practical strategies for leveraging corporate credit to finance growth opportunities, improve cash flow, and even invest in real estate—all while protecting your personal credit. Whether you’re just starting your business or preparing to scale, this episode offers practical insights that can help you unlock new funding opportunities and build a more resilient company. Some questions discussed include: Sue’s entrepreneurial journey and transition into corporate credit coaching How previous business ownership prepared her for helping entrepreneurs today Common myths surrounding corporate credit Why every business should establish corporate credit—even if they already have a bank When is the right time to begin building business credit How to establish, grow, and use corporate credit strategically How investors can leverage corporate credit in real estate without relying solely on personal funds If you’re ready to build your business on a stronger financial foundation while protecting your personal assets, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Gardening Australia's Hannah Moloney on the heartwarming and heartbreaking reasons humans continue to lovingly tend to their gardens — for healing, beauty and joy.For thousands of years, tending to a garden or a small farm meant human survival. But now, with massive commercial farms, genetically modified crops, refrigerated freight and modern irrigation, we don't need to tend to our own gardens to survive.So why, then, do so many of us still lovingly plant, water and cultivate flowers, fruits and vegetables? Or watch 'lawn porn' to relax?It's a question that Hannah Moloney has asked thousands of gardeners from around the world.Hannah is a permaculture educator, landscape designer and the Tasmanian presenter for ABC TV's Gardening Australia. Gardening is in Hannah's blood, having grown up in a herb nursery run by her green-thumbed father in the Brisbane suburbs.For Hannah, gardening remains a lifeline, a way to bond with her family and a joyful act of protest.Why We Garden is published by Simon & Schuster.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris. Executive producer is Nicola Harrison.It explores gardening, hobbies, outdoor activities, mental health, grief gardening, why we like being outdoors, gardening as meditation, the beauty of our gardens, Australian native gardens, vegetable patches, how to grow your own vegetables, fruit trees, family origin stories, losing a parent, pregnancy, motherhood, postpartum depression, gardening for healing, creative inspiration, human history, horticulture, climate change, global warming, food scarcity, food supply, drought, flood, famine, Costa Georgiadis, green thumb, meditation.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

Oona Metz is a nationally recognized therapist and author who has spent more than 30 years studying the strange, tender, deeply human ways we navigate relationships, self-abandonment and change. Her new book, Unhitched: The Essential Divorce Guide for Women (Gallery Books/Simon & Schuster), launched in January and has already earned remarkable attention. Gayle King praised it on CBS Mornings, Maria Shriver highlighted it in her newsletter, Time Magazine ran an exclusive excerpt, and it's been featured on CBS News and NPR's Morning Edition. It also quickly became a top divorce book on Amazon.She speaks candidly about why women initiate nearly 70% of divorces, and how that statistic is less about endings and more about awakening — about the cumulative weight of emotional labor, the slow erosion of self and the eventual decision to choose alignment, truth and self-trust.Oona's work is deeply aligned with conversations about reinvention and becoming. In this episode, we discuss:• the quiet realization that something needs to change• the emotional courage it takes to leave a life that once made sense• the nonlinear path from grief to clarity to self-reclamation• how women rediscover identity and purpose in midlife• the unexpected freedom and possibility that can follow loss• what it means to consciously step into a new version of yourselfHer five-phase model of divorce grief offers a thoughtful framework for understanding the emotional arc of transformation — not just as loss, but as a process of becoming.As both a therapist and someone who rebuilt her own life after divorce, Oona brings a rare blend of clinical depth and lived wisdom to conversations about resilience, reinvention and the deeply human process of beginning again.Oona is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, a Certified Group Psychotherapist and a Fellow of the American Group Psychotherapy Association. She has three decades of clinical experience and specializes in treating women navigating divorce. She leads three weekly Divorce Support Groups and is the founder of the Beacon Group Fellowship, a program which trains mental health professionals across the country to lead divorce groups. She has given over 100 talks and workshops locally, nationally and internationally. Learn more:www.oonametz.comhttps://www.instagram.com/oonametz/https://www.facebook.com/womennavigatingdivorce/https://www.linkedin.com/in/oona-metz-licsw-cgp-6a14a41b/https://www.youtube.com/@OonaMetzhttps://www.oonametz.com/book-unhitchedhttps://time.com/7344525/why-women-divorce/https://www.cbsnews.com/video/why-more-women-are-initiating-divorce/

Častou reakcí premiérů, kteří se ocitli v krizi a čelí silnému tlaku, je, že sáhnou po personálních změnách ve vládě. Vymění pár členů kabinetu a doufají, že se tím aspoň na chvíli stočí pozornost někam jinam. Někdy to pomůže, jindy ale ten efekt rychle zase vyprchá. K podobnému kroku před časem sáhl i německý kancléř Friedrich Merz.

Es freut mich sehr, dass ich für dieses Gespräch Oliver Gorus gewinnen konnte. Es fügt sich inhaltlich an das kürzliche Gespräch mit Prof. Konrad Paul Liessmann an, gibt aber einen anderen, sehr wesentlichen Blickwinkel wieder, den wir ebenfalls in der breiten Diskussion viel zu wenig hören. Oliver Gorus ist seit einem Vierteljahrhundert Unternehmer in mehreren Branchen. Er ist Gründer und Herausgeber des freiheitlichen Online-Magazins »Der Sandwirt«, Kolumnist und Kommentator bei den »Freiheitsfunken«, bei »eigentümlich frei«, beim Kontrafunk und auf X. Er ist glücklicher Familienvater, Schwabe und ungern auf Reisen. Er lebt in Südtirol und liebt die Freiheit. Es war geradezu erfrischend, mit jemandem zu sprechen, der Freiheit als Konzept und Lebenspraxis ernst und sehr persönlich nimmt. Die meisten Menschen, denen ich heute in Europa begegne, gerade auch formal Gebildete, scheinen mir eher einer Untertanen-Mentalität anzuhängen. Was kann der Staat für mich tun? Oder, noch schlimmer, was sagt mir der Staat oder ein beliebiger Vertreter einer Obrigkeit, was ich tun soll? Und wenn es kein Leitbild von oben oder einer beliebig banalen Bubble gibt, ist man verloren. Dieser Weg in die Sackgasse, in der wir uns in Europa befinden, beschleunigt sich täglich. Darum erscheint es mir so wichtig zu sein, Dinge und vor allem vermeintlich intellektuelle Ideen, die sich aber eher als Glaubenssätze herausstellen, fundamental zu hinterfragen. Wir beginnen mit der Grundfrage: Was ist Freiheit, besonders im Kontext der heutigen Zeit und der Veränderung über die Zeit? Verschiebt sich die Bedeutung »Freiheit von« (negativ) gegenüber »Freiheit zu« (positiv)? Hat sich auch die Bedeutung des Wortes Liberalismus vs. Libertarismus verschoben? Wie stehen Freiheit vs. Kollektivismus heute? Sind »links« und »rechts« noch zeitgemäße Einordnungen? Welche gesellschaftlichen Aspekte fallen überhaupt in diese Betrachtung? Ist Philip Pettits republikanische Definition von Freiheit relevant? Es ginge nicht um das Beherrschtwerden, sondern um das Potenzial, beherrscht zu werden. Was ist der Unterschied? Geht es dem Sklaven, der vom Herrn Champagnerfrühstück serviert bekommt, nicht gut? Was ist das Problem? Warum sind die Corona-Maßnahmen ein bedrohliches Beispiel für den Zustand der Freiheit in Europa und der westlichen Welt? Ein aktuelles Beispiel sind die immer totalitäreren Maßnahmen, die in der EU und Deutschland beschlossen werden, gerne während der Urlaubssaison oder während einer Fußball-WM, in der Hoffnung, dass die Menschen abgelenkt sind und Journalisten noch weniger kritisch arbeiten als sonst. »Ein Geheimdienst, der im Verborgenen arbeitet, bekommt operative Fähigkeiten, damit wird das alte Trennungsgebot — eine der Lehren aus dem Dritten Reich — missachtet. […] Das sind Strukturen, die hier gebaut werden, die an die dunkelsten Zeiten unserer Geschichte erinnern.« Dies ist aber nur eines von zahlreichen Beispielen. Wie sind wir in diese existenzielle Krise geraten, in der wir in Europa stecken, und besteht hier nicht ein Zusammenhang? Sind Menschen, die Freiheit wollen, nicht in der Minderheit? Sind wir Untertanennationen, lieben die meisten Menschen gar das betreute Denken? »Wir Freiheitlichen sind im deutschsprachigen Raum traditionell und schon immer in der Minderheit. […] Ich glaube, dass die Freiheit in Deutschland in den Köpfen der Menschen unterentwickelt ist und es nur eine Minderheit ist, die überhaupt bemerkt, dass hier solche Machtstrukturen aufgebaut werden.« Ist die Situation hoffnungslos, oder kann sich daran etwas ändern? Wird sich genug Druck im Lande für wesentliche Änderungen aufbauen oder werden die Fähigen und Klugen schlicht Deutschland, Österreich und Europa verlassen und damit die Situation wesentlich schlechter machen? Ist eine Zersplitterung der Gesellschaft zu vermeiden, oder erkennen wir gerade einen Trend ins Gegenteil? Ist der Begriff der »Krise« überhaupt anwendbar oder erleben wir eher Zusammenbruch als Krise? Entwickeln sich Gesellschaften in Zyklen? Wie wären diese zu denken? Was ist die Rolle von Kultur? Wer bestimmt, was zur Kultur wird? »Von dem Ich und dem Du geht es über in das Man. […] Da gibt es dann plötzlich dieses kollektive Wir.« Sind Individuen in der heutigen Phase, wenn eine Nation über den Zenit ist, noch eine Wirkmacht? Was oder wer dann? Wie endet der Zyklus aber dann und was geschieht danach? »We gave authority to the people who explained things. Not the people who built them.«, Marc Andreessen Und dazu passend: »The world you see everywhere around you, could never have been built by the people you see now living within it.«, Eric Weinstein Was ist davon zu halten? »Würde heute ein Ludwig Erhard leben, der Vater des Wirtschaftswunders, der würde verzweifeln, der wäre völlig machtlos.« Warum sind die USA trotz aller Probleme, die es dort gibt, deutlich erfolgreicher als Europa? Gibt es einen Technik-Zyklus, den die USA treiben und wir verpassen? Oder ist dies überhaupt ein Phänomen, das gar nicht mehr einzelnen Nationen leicht zuordenbar ist? Wie kann in einem Gemeinwesen überhaupt eine Entscheidungsfindung stattfinden, die zu konstruktiven Ergebnissen führt? Zentral oder dezentral? In welchem Verhältnis? Oder ist Anarchismus eine Variante? »Steckt in der Demokratie immer schon die Saat des Versagens?« Begegnen sich Extremisten im Kollektivismus? Kann man am Wesen des Menschen vorbei theoretisieren? Und was sind die Folgen davon? »In allen menschlichen Kulturen gibt es Strukturen.« Können und dürfen wir Menschen ändern? Auf welcher Ebene und in welcher Skalierung sollten und können Entscheidungen effektiv getroffen werden — was hat das für Konsequenzen? Braucht es die Kleinteiligkeit, den Flickenteppich? Leben wir aktuell gar in einer Fürstenherrschaft? »Diese ›unsere Demokratie‹ ist eine Aristokratie.« Was nun? Gibt es einen Ausweg? Im Grunde gibt es drei Möglichkeiten: Über das Danach nachdenken und entsprechende Konzepte vorbereiten auf emergente Phänomene hoffen Parallelstrukturen schaffen Warum ist der Volkswagen-Konzern ein gutes Spiegelbild für die deutsche Gesellschaft? »Die Leistungsfähigen werden bestraft und die Nicht-Leistungsfähigen oder Nicht-Leistungswilligen werden belohnt. Das führt dazu, dass immer mehr Leute die Seite wählen, wo sie alimentiert werden.« Wie kann es einen Neuanfang geben? Regional? Wenn wir in Europa über den Euro alle Fehler und alles Versagen über Nationen verteilen? Wie soll das funktionieren? Ist das nur eine Phase? Was wird zerbrechen? »Harte Zeiten produzieren gute Leute, gute Leute produzieren gute Zeiten, gute Zeiten produzieren schwache Leute, und schwache Leute führen alles wieder zum Zusammenbruch. […] Wir haben gerade sehr, sehr viele, sehr, sehr schwache Menschen.« Wie kann es aber gelingen, Schwache und Bedürftige weiter zu unterstützen ohne ein Sozialsystem, wie wir es heute haben, das völlig seinen Fokus verloren hat und in keiner Weise nachhaltig ist? Welche Rolle spielt Bildung? Warum ist unser aktuelles Bildungssystem trotz der enormen Kosten, die es verursacht, so dysfunktional? Führt staatliche Wohlfahrt und Bildungswesen zum Gegenteil des erwünschten Effektes? »Kinder lernen schon in den Familien, vom Staat abhängig zu sein. […] Echte professionelle Jugendarbeit und Sozialarbeit ist ein Kampf gegen Windmühlen.« Ein Bonmot, das ich kürzlich gelesen habe sagt: »Most jobs today are adult daycare.« Ist das zu polemisch? Wie ist das zu denken mit aktuellen Entwicklungen in künstlicher Intelligenz und Robotik — einige Jahre in die Zukunft gedacht? »Der Bildungssektor wird sich anpassen, sobald er nicht mehr staatlich ist. […] Es wird sich ein so bunter Strauß an Bildungsformen ausbilden, dass es auch für die unter Anführungszeichen Schwächsten hervorragende Bildungsmöglichkeiten geben wird.« Andere Episoden Episode 155: Freiheit oder Sicherheit?

Greg Greeley was named CEO of Simon & Schuster a little more than 100 days ago, with a career that spans aerospace engineering, Sun Microsystems, and nearly two decades at Amazon — where he held senior leadership roles including heading up Amazon Prime. In this episode, Greg talks about how he spent his first 100 days at S&S, how he's approaching his new role, and why he took the job in the first place.

In this episode of High Net Purpose, Joe McCarthy sits down with Greg Greeley, CEO of Simon & Schuster and former Amazon and Airbnb leader, for a conversation about purpose, customer obsession, Amazon Prime, transformation, AI and legacy. Greg describes purpose as giving back to society more than you take by building companies that serve customers, suppliers, employees and stakeholders. The conversation moves from his childhood in a farming community and the bankruptcy that shaped his appetite for risk, through Amazon's dot-com-era pressure and the creation of Prime, to his current role leading Simon & Schuster through a period of change. Greg shares: Why his definition of purpose is simple: give back more than you take What he learned building Amazon Prime alongside Jeff Bezos and the team How childhood adversity and family bankruptcy shaped his appetite for risk Why the best leaders stay obsessed with customers, not competitors Why transformation requires builders, not just operators How AI is changing leadership, decision-making and long-term value creation If you're a senior operator, founder, family office principal, or leader navigating uncertainty, this episode will challenge how you think about purpose, growth and long-term impact. The practical test at the centre of the episode is simple: are you building something that will outlast you, and are you building the team that can carry it forward? Greg Greeley | BioGreg Greeley is Chief Executive Officer of Simon & Schuster, the 102-year-old publisher now operating as an independent company. He grew up in a small farming community, where his father moved from selling insurance to farmers into running restaurants - an entrepreneurial household whose later bankruptcy, just as Greg left for college, taught him self-reliance and shaped his appetite for doing hard things.Trained as an engineer with a computer systems degree and an MBA in finance, Greg began his career in aerospace before moving to Sun Microsystems in the mid-1990s. In 1999 he left Sun - then at the top of its game - to join Amazon, initially in finance for worldwide operations. Over nearly two decades at Amazon he led the worldwide media business through the digital transition, created Super Saver Shipping, and was central to the creation and global expansion of Amazon Prime. He went on to join Airbnb in a senior leadership role during its period of hyper-growth, and today applies that builder's playbook to publishing, where he is focused on making a century-old company “work like a 102-year-old startup”.He describes his purpose simply: to give back to society more than you take by building great companies - and to be remembered as a builder.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour with Mark Thompson Hour 2 (7.27) Mark’s getting married in a few days and just returned from a special trip with the love of his life, Courtney, to England and her ancestral homeland of Croatia, where her family history stretches back 500 years. Courtney jumps on the phone to share highlights, including seeing her favorite artist Ludovico Einaudi perform for the 30th time and catching the London theater production “1536” about Henry VIII and the beheaded Anne Boleyn. Swedish pop-rock duo Roxette has canceled their entire US tour, blaming expenses and logistics — though soft ticket sales may have played a role. Mark recently caught a downtown LA band whose singer sounded exactly like Taylor Dayne — only to discover the whole group, including the vocalist, were men in drag performing under the name Transatlantic. In sadder news, iconic “You’re So Vain” singer Carly Simon, 83, is battling both cancer and Parkinson’s disease. The daughter of a Simon & Schuster founder and an activist mother grew up in the Bronx and has become increasingly reclusive as her health declined. And one year after Dolly Parton lost her husband of 60 years, Carl Dean, her brother Coy “Denver” Parton has died at 82. With 12 siblings in the Parton household, it’s no wonder Dolly never had kids of her own. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Der Börsencrash von 1929 an der Wall Street löst die Weltwirtschaftskrise aus. Warum Millionen Menschen in Armut und Elend schlitterten, wie Banker von Stars zu Buhmännern wurden und und weshalb es auch die Schweiz traf. In den 1920 Jahren werden Banker und Investoren gefeiert wie Popstars. Immer mehr Menschen aus allen Schichten der Gesellschaft kaufen Aktien - auf Kredit. Dann bricht der Aktienmarkt zusammen. Die wilden Zwanziger Jahre kommen zu einem jähen Ende. Der Börsencrash am Schwarzen Dienstag stürzt Millionen Menschen in Armut und Verzweiflung. Banker wie der National City-Chef, Charlie Mitchell werden in der Grossen Depression von Stars zu Buhmännern. Und, schnell zieht die Krise Länder rund um den Globus in Mitleidenschaft. Die Schweiz wird erst mit ein paar Jahren Verzögerung getroffen. Dann aber hart und lange. Wie ist es zu dem gekommen, was wir heute als DIE Weltwirtschaftskrise bezeichnen? Hätte die Krise nach dem Crash verhindert werden können? Wie hat die Weltwirtschaftskrise die Schweiz verändert? Und, welche Lehren könnten wir ziehen für heute, wo die Börsenkurse gerade so hoch steigen wie noch nie? Diesen Fragen geht diese Folge von SRF Geschichte nach. ____________________ Hast du Feedback, Fragen oder Wünsche?

EPISODE 150 -  “CEDRIC GIBBONS: ARCHITECT OF HOLLYWOOD DREAMS” - 7/27/2026  This week, we're going behind the scenes of Classic Cinema to focus on an artist who had a huge impact on the visual storytelling of film.  You may not even know his name, but he is credited on over 1000 films. What would The Wizard of Oz be without the Emerald City?  What would The Women be without Mary Haines' divine apartment?   And what would the Oscar statuette be without this man's design? Of course, we're talking about celebrated Art Director CEDRIC GIBBONS — one of the most influential artists in film history.  He served at MGM as supervising art director for a record 32 years — from 1925 to 1956.  Winner of 11 Academy Awards, nominated for a total of 39, Gibbons created the look and tone we now think of as synonymous with that MGM sparkle. Join us as we discuss his life and career.   SHOW NOTES:  Sources: MGM Style: Cedric Gibbons and the Art of the Golden Age of Hollywood by Howard Gutner, Simon & Schuster, 2019   Cedric Gibbons and Dolores Del Rio: The Art Director and the Star of Flying Down to Rio in Santa Monica, Architectural Digest April, 1992 Architecture and Film Edited by Mark Lamster, Princeton Architectural Press, 2000 Cedric Gibbons, MGM Artist, 65: Retired Head of Department Dead, Designer of Oscar, Won 11 Academy Awards, The New York Times, July 27, 1960 Designs on Film:  A Century of Hollywood Art Direction by Cathy Whitlock,  HarperCollins, 2010 New Book on Famed MGM Art Director Cedric Gibbons Reveals Over 100 Never-Before-Seen Photos by Cathy Whitlock, The Hollywood Reporter October 16, 2019 TCM.com; oscars.org IMDBpro.com IBDB.com wikipedia.com brittanica.com Films Mentioned: Trilby (1915); Fields of Honor (1918); Earthbound (1920); Bunty Pulls the Strings (1921); A Blind Bargain (1922); In the Palace of the King (1923); The Rendezvous (1923); True As Steel (1924); Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ (1925); The Trail of '98 (1928); Our Dancing Daughters (1928); The Bridge of San Luis Rey (1929); Anna Christie (1930); Grand Hotel (1932); Red Dust (1932); The Merry Widow (1934); The Barretts of Wimpole Street (1934); A Tale of Two Cities (1935); Fury (1936); Marie Antoinette (1938); The Wizard of Oz (1939); The Women (1939); Pride and Prejudice (1940); Presenting Lily Mars (1943); Gaslight (1944); Meet Me in St. Louis (1944); The Clock (1945); The Picture of Dorian Gray (1945); The Yearling (1946); Body and Soul (1947); Little Women (1949); Madame Bovary (1949); An American in Paris (1951); Singin' in the Rain (1952); The Bad and the Beautiful (1952); Julius Caesar (1953); Somebody Up There Likes Me (1956); Summer and Smoke (1961); Period of Adjustment (1962) --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

Doby, kdy přicházely z německých automobilek pozitivní zprávy, se zdají být dávnou minulostí. Kdysi šlo o rekordy u počtu prodaných vozidel, výši obratu, čistého zisku a případně částky určené na investice. Klíčové odvětví německého hospodářství ale nyní bojuje o přežití. Přitom bylo kdysi zdrojem blahobytu, a ještě donedávna na sebe vázalo, ať už přímo nebo nepřímo, až tři miliony pracovních míst.

On today's show, we welcome the always excellent David Wyatt to explore the way Hemingway represents “thinking” in the novel.Although Hemingway may not be as celebrated as Faulkner, Joyce, Proust, and Woolf at depicting human consciousness, in this episode David Wyatt guides us through crucial moments in The Sun Also Rises to show Hemingway's subtle power in dramatizing thought in action.Wyatt takes us from Jake's bedroom to his self-conscious prayer, to his drunken reading of Turgenev in bed, to the excitement of the bullring in order to reveal how the reader gains access to Jake's interiority, making The Sun Also Rises a psychological novel in disguise. As with all of the The Sun Also Rises episodes this year, we enjoy the legendary actor William Hurt reading—in this episode, from Jake's “I thought I had paid for everything” meditation in chapter 14, courtesy of our friends at Simon & Schuster Audio.Audio excerpt courtesy of Simon & Schuster Audio from The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway, read by William Hurt.
