As Matthew 5:13-16 tells us, we are to be salt and light in a dark world. In this new series, we want to encourage you with examples of Southern Baptists who are bringing the truth of God's Word to bear, not only in the halls of Congress, but in their local communities. By sharing these stories, we hope to spur you on to ask, "What can I do?" as you engage the culture with the hope of the gospel? On today's episode, you'll hear from Dr. Lenow, president of the ERLC, as he shares about what this looks like, why it matters in the context we live in today, and how each local church can influence their communities for the good and, ultimately, for Christ. Listen to more episodes of The ERLC Podcast at erlc.com/podcast.

Few people are more closely associated with the Western Frontier than William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody. Born in 1846, Cody came of age during the era of Westward expansion. As a young man, he began scouting for the 5th Cavalry and eventually built a reputation as a skilled frontiersman. He later took his exploits to the stage and then created Buffalo Bill's Wild West arena show, which carried the image of the American West around the globe. In this episode, Lindsay is joined by Dr. Paul Andrew Hutton, author of the New York Times bestseller The Undiscovered Country: Triumph, Tragedy and the Shaping of the American West, and Tate Chair of Western History in the Buffalo Bill Center of the West in Cody, Wyoming, to discuss Buffalo Bill's central role in shaping the mythology of the Wild West.

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids Podcast, Dr. Kathy Koch and Wayne Stender explore new research suggesting that the impact of screens may depend less on simple time limits and more on how, when, why, and with whom kids use them. They discuss the difference between screens as toys and screens as tools and why parents need to know their individual children when setting boundaries. Parents will be encouraged to move beyond fear based rules and instead teach kids to use technology with wisdom, balance, curiosity, and discernment.

As a state convention of more than 2,000 churches, Mississippi Baptists are seeking to equip local churches to make disciples in Mississippi and around the world.

How our technology habits shape our kids, our marriages, and the culture of our homes Our phones are incredible tools—but they make terrible masters. In this episode, Don and Suzanne Manning take an honest look at something almost every parent struggles with: our relationship with technology. This conversation isn't about creating guilt or giving you another list of rules for your kids. Instead, it's about raising the bar for ourselves as parents and asking an important question: Who—or what—is getting our attention? Our children are watching what we do, and our example is often more powerful than our instruction. When we continually reach for our phones while our kids are talking, we unintentionally communicate that whatever is happening on our screen is more important than they are. Don and Suzanne talk honestly about their own struggles with technology, practical guardrails they've tried, creating phone-free spaces and times, putting devices away during conversations and meals, and protecting connection in marriage. They also challenge parents to stop chasing perfection and instead find boundaries that actually work for their personality and family. Most importantly, this episode is an invitation to take back the ground technology may have taken in your home. Ask God what boundaries He wants you to put in place, then lead your family by example. Your kids don't need perfect parents. They need parents who are willing to join the fight—and choose connection over distraction. Podcast Resources: Click here for everything Crazy Cool Family!

What is actually shaping your life? Most people point to genetics, family, money, education, or the circumstances they were born into. Those things matter, but they are not the whole story. In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Nick Surface and Garrett Unclebach reveal the forces you can control that are quietly determining your future. Without intentionality, years can pass while your beliefs, habits, relationships, and tolerances steer your life somewhere you never consciously chose.This conversation challenges Christian men to examine what they believe, where they place their attention, what they repeatedly do, and who they allow to influence them. Your routines are shaping who you become. Your relationships are defining what feels normal. The things you tolerate are slowly establishing your standards. Biblical masculinity requires more than good intentions—it requires taking responsibility for the direction of your life and aligning your daily decisions with truth, faith, and the purpose God has given you.A great life does not happen by accident. It is formed through commitments you honor, adversity you confront, and the small decisions you make when nobody is watching. Men who continually run from difficulty become weaker, while men who trust Jesus and lean into adversity allow hardship to produce strength, maturity, and endurance. This episode will help you put your hands back on the wheel, evaluate who you are becoming, and intentionally build a life that reflects God's plans rather than the path of least resistance.Get With NuWave Home Lenders By Clicking HereJoin a group of likeminded Impossible Life listeners in our FREE Skool community by clicking here.Get the Purpose Playbook by clicking hereGet the FREE Basic Discipline Training 30 Day Program by clicking hereJoin us in Mindset Mastery by clicking hereLevel up your nutrition with IDLife by clicking hereGET IN TOUCHSocial Media - @theimpossiblelifeEmail - info@theimpossible.life

This week on Monday Matters, Will Parker and Jen Schwanke discuss a recent newsletter from Jen, “Weather vs. Climate”. Jen starts out the episode recounting a time that she got caught in an unexpected storm while on a run. She then goes on to talk about how sometimes unexpected storms pop up in leadership. Leaders don't always know when people are going to push back against a decision, or when there's going to be a lot of deep emotions. When this happens, it's like a storm flaring up out of nowhere, but a storm is not indicative of the overall climate of a school. Climate is what happens regularly at a school, it's persistent and systematic. Shaping a school climate so that it can weather a storm is important, but we often rob our climates of the thing that is going to protect them during severe weather. Will asks listeners: “If we know crazy weather is going to happen eventually, how do we shape our climate to lower the stress of intense storms?”. Jen also shares four questions to ask yourselves when a storm rolls into a school: Is this pushback a sign that the work is wrong or is this just a natural symptom of change? If I adjust this strategy, am I doing it because I want to improve its impact, or am I just trying to avoid the storm? Six months from now, will I even remember this storm? Six months from now, if I hold this line, will I see a lasting, positive impact for our students? Listen in for more takeaways! And, as always, thank you for doing what matters!

Camden Bucey speaks with Derek C. Schuurman, professor and chair of computer science at Calvin University, about Christian wisdom in the age of artificial intelligence. Drawing upon Shaping a Digital World, Schuurman explains why technology is never neutral: people shape their tools, and those tools in turn reshape habits, institutions, and communities.The conversation sets contemporary AI within the biblical story of creation, fall, redemption, and new creation. Bucey and Schuurman contrast Christian hope with technicism—the belief that technology can solve humanity's deepest problems and build a technological heaven on earth. They also discuss human nature, transhumanism, responsible design, Christian higher education, autonomous weapons, and the need to keep human moral judgment and accountability in the loop.Chapters00:00 Introduction03:41 Derek C.

He grew up in Barbados and moved to the United States of America as a young adult. Neville Goddard was perhaps the last century's most intellectually substantive and charismatic purveyor of the philosophy generally called New Thought. He wrote more than ten books under the solitary pen name Neville, and was a popular speaker on metaphysical themes from the late 1930s until his death in 1972.Possessed of a self-educated and uncommonly sharp intellect, Neville espoused a spiritual vision that was bold and total: Everything you see and experience, including other people, is the result of your own thoughts and emotional states. Each of us dreams into existence an infinitude of realities and outcomes. When you realize this, Neville taught, you will discover yourself to be a slumbering branch of the Creator clothed in human form, and at the helm of limitless possibilities.Neville's thought system influenced a wide range of spiritual thinkers and writers, from bestselling author Dr. Joseph Murphy to Rhonda Byrne and Wayne Dyer.He has inspired and continues to inspire millions of readers around the world.* * *SOCIALS:• Neville Goddard Newsletter• Neville Goddard Telegram• Neville Goddard Instagram• Neville Goddard Threads• Neville Goddard Twitter• Neville Goddard YouTube* * *ABOUT THE COURSEUnlock God Mode is a transformative 30-day course designed to accelerate your journey towards greater wealth, love, and success through a deeper understanding and manipulation of your reality.  Comprising of 30 audio lessons, this course unfolds as a self-paced, introspective expedition into reality creation, aiding you in elevating your consciousness to what's referred to as the God Mode. Throughout this journey, practical tools will be provided daily to help enrich your life with more love, money, and success by altering your mental models and perceptions. This course combines theory and hands-on experience to create a unique deep dive into manifestation, consciousness, and reality creation.

With too many cooks in the kitchen, can innovation ever reach the road? In this Unplugged episode of SAE Tomorrow Today, host Grayson Brulte uses the culinary world as a powerful metaphor to explore one of the autonomous trucking industry's most pressing issues: who gets “veto power”? As startups challenge established OEMs and suppliers, questions around control, competition, and liability are shaping the future of commercial autonomy. Are legacy players protecting safety or their market position? And when disruptive newcomers refuse to back down, who ultimately determines the recipe for success? Tune in for a fresh perspective on the power struggles, partnerships, and industry dynamics that could define the next chapter of autonomous trucking. Have your own thoughts on this topic?

Finding a summer job isn't easy this year. But that doesn't mean young people have to put their growth on hold. With one of the toughest summer job markets in years, many teens are missing out on opportunities to build confidence, responsibility and real-world skills. That's why we're revisiting one of our favourite conversations from the Shaping Our World archives. In this episode, Charles Roberts, CEO of LiveDifferent, shares why qualities like resilience, initiative, leadership and compassion aren't developed only through a paycheque. They're built whenever young people choose to serve others, step outside their comfort zones and make a difference in their communities. The original episode aired May 22, 2022. Whether your teen found a summer job, is still searching, or is feeling discouraged, this conversation offers practical encouragement and a reminder that growth can happen in many different ways.

Welcome to another episode of The Temple of Surf Podcast. This week, we are honored to welcome one of the true pioneers of Italian surfboard shaping: Fabio Giacomini. For more than four decades, Fabio has dedicated his life to the pursuit of the perfect surfboard. Beginning his shaping journey in 1980, he became one of the first professional surfboard shapers in Italy, helping to build a surf culture in a country where the sport was still in its infancy. Through decades of research, experimentation, and craftsmanship, he has earned a reputation as one of Europe's most respected custom surfboard builders. But Fabio's story goes far beyond shaping foam. It is the story of a craftsman driven by curiosity, innovation, and an unwavering passion for helping surfers unlock their full potential. Every surfboard that leaves his shaping bay represents thousands of hours of experience, countless prototypes, and a relentless desire to refine every curve, rail, rocker, and contour. In this conversation, Fabio takes us back to the early days of surfing in Italy, when finding quality equipment, information, and even suitable waves required determination and creativity. He shares how those pioneering years shaped his philosophy and why hand shaping remains, in his view, one of the purest expressions of surfboard design. We also explore the evolution of surfboard technology, from traditional polyurethane blanks to modern materials and construction methods. Fabio explains how innovation should never replace craftsmanship, but instead serve as a tool to create better-performing boards while preserving the unique relationship between the surfer, the shaper, and the wave. Throughout the episode, we discuss the importance of understanding each surfer as an individual. A magic surfboard is never simply copied from another design, it is created through listening, experience, and an intimate understanding of how every surfer approaches the ocean. Fabio shares fascinating insights into the design process, the influence of decades spent testing boards, and the lessons he has learned from shaping for surfers of every level. As the founder of PIKE Surf, the creator of Italy's first professional hand-shaping academy, and an innovator who continues to push the boundaries of surfboard design, Fabio has inspired generations of European surfers and aspiring shapers. His contribution extends far beyond the boards themselves; he has helped cultivate a culture of craftsmanship and respect for the art of shaping. Whether you are passionate about surfboard design, fascinated by the history of European surfing, or simply searching for the story behind a lifetime devoted to excellence, this episode offers a rare opportunity to learn from one of the industry's true masters. At The Temple of Surf Podcast, our mission is to preserve the stories of the people who continue to shape surfing—both literally and figuratively. Fabio Giacomini embodies that mission through a lifetime of dedication, innovation, and passion for the craft. If you enjoy this episode, don't forget to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with fellow surfers, shapers, and anyone who appreciates the timeless art of handcrafted surfboards. Thank you for being part of The Temple of Surf community. Enjoy the episode.

A church that looked spiritually alive on the outside was quietly compromised on the inside. In this message from The Overcomer Within, Part 4, Minister Melinda Watson unpacks Jesus' letter to the church in Thyatira and asks a question every believer needs to answer honestly: who is actually shaping your thinking? From ancient false teaching to modern deepfakes and disinformation, this message shows how compromise rarely announces itself, it simply waits for us to stop paying attention. If you've ever wondered whether your convictions are truly your own or borrowed from the loudest voice around you, this message is for you.

Courtenay Turner and Patrick Wood join the program to examine the technocratic control structure quietly taking shape across the world. They explain how an emerging international framework known as Pax Silica, promoted as a way to secure supply chains and strengthen economic resilience, represents a shift toward governance that operates beyond traditional nation states. Rather than relying on military or political dominance alone, this new system is built on control of data, artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, and advanced technology.We discuss why technology has become the new currency of power, how governments and multinational organizations are aligning around this model, and what it means for national sovereignty, individual freedom, and the future of the global economy. Whether or not you agree with every conclusion, this conversation introduces listeners to a developing framework that is reshaping how power is organized and exercised.Learn more about Courtenay Turner at linktr.ee/courtenayturnerLearn more about Patrick Wood at Technocracy.news

Send us Fan MailThe hardest trials are the ones that don't resolve on your timeline, the ones that make you whisper, “Why is this happening to me?” We sit with that question and walk straight into one of Scripture's most intense stories: Job. Not to chase easy answers, but to learn how faith holds when life turns upside down.Job is described as spiritually mature and wholehearted, yet he loses everything in a single day. That tension breaks the myth that righteousness guarantees a storm free life. We talk about why the Book of Job is ultimately about becoming, how worship can be an act of courage when you don't understand God's reasons, and why the adversary's real target is your relationship with Jesus Christ. If you've ever felt the lie “God has forgotten you,” this conversation names it and pushes back with something sturdier than mood or circumstance.We also get practical. Todd shares the “trust the instruments” analogy: when emotions and senses distort reality, you rely on steady spiritual instruments like scriptures, covenants, prayer, personal revelation, and prophetic guidance. We discuss Elder David A. Bednar's piercing question about having the “faith not to be healed,” and why real discipleship can mean trusting God inside the storm, not demanding the storm disappear.Finally, we talk about comfort. Job's friends teach a negative lesson: explanations can wound, but presence can heal. If you're carrying grief, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, or a season of silence from heaven, come listen, then share this with someone who needs steadiness today.

According to research by Gartner, by 2029, sales organizations with AI-driven enablement functions will achieve 40% faster sales stage velocity than those using more traditional approaches. But getting there means building the kind of workflows that tell you what actually works, which is only possible when you can see inside the conversations that selling actually happens in. If you can’t, you might just find yourself scaling an AI-powered program that’s completely misaligned with how your sellers sell and how your buyers buy. So how do you understand what your teams need, and then build an innovative, mature, AI-powered enablement program to match? Riley Rogers: Welcome to the Win/Win Podcast. I’m your host, Riley Rogers. Join us as we dive into changing trends in the workplace and how to navigate them successfully. Here to discuss this topic is Jill Sawyer, Director of Sales Enablement at RL Datix. Thank you so much for joining us today, Jill. I’m really excited to have you here. I think we’ve got a very fun conversation ahead. Could you give us a little bit of an overview of who you are, what your background is, and your work today? Jill Sawyer: Yeah, absolutely. First, thanks so much for having me. I’m super excited to be here. Currently, I sit as the Director of Sales Enablement for North America at RL Datix. I’ve been here for a little over seven and a half years. JS: My background is a bit non-traditional for sales enablement. I started more on the marketing and product marketing side. I moved into the enablement role a few years ago, a little bit over two and a half years ago, but I was really stepping into a function that needed to be built from the ground up. That meant figuring out not just what sellers needed to know, but how to help them actually use it in moments that matter. I’ve also recently gone back to school. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s of Jurisprudence in Health Law at Loyola University Chicago, which has been really valuable in this role. Our customers operate in a highly regulated healthcare environment, so understanding more about compliance, patient safety, risk, and legal frameworks helps me think differently about what our sellers need to understand and how we support them. RR: And you wear so many hats through it all. I’m really excited to see how all of this comes into play in your work today. But before we jump into what you’re working on now, could you give us a little bit of an overview of your sales environment? JS: Yeah. So the way I usually describe RL Datix is that we sit at an intersection of healthcare safety, risk compliance, and operational reliability. Our customers are health systems and hospitals that are trying to solve problems with very real stakes. They’re trying to either prevent harm, respond appropriately when something does go wrong, or maintain regulatory readiness. So it makes our sales environment really complex because those problems rarely belong to one department or one singular buyer. The buying committee can be really broad, and each stakeholder is looking at the problem through a different lens. So for our sellers, the challenge is being able to zoom in and zoom out. They need to understand specific workflows, not only within our product, but within the landscape. But they also need to connect that workflow to the larger operational and strategic priorities of our customers. This is where enablement for us becomes really important. I’m helping translate complex healthcare problems into clear, relevant conversations about value and outcomes and how RL Datix helps raise the standard of care. RR: So a lot for sellers to juggle, and a lot for you to help them juggle, especially because you built the enablement function largely from scratch. While doing so, you were learning what sales enablement as a concept is, what the function should look like, and how you should tailor it to your specific environment. So how did coming in without a more traditional enablement background change the way you thought about what to build, and was that kind of an advantage? JS: Yeah, so I think coming in without a traditional enablement background shaped our function in a really positive way. Since I’ve come from marketing and product marketing, I was always really thinking about our audience, message, positioning, and customer value. But when I moved over into enablement, I quickly realized that having the right message or right content was only part of the equation. I needed to help our field know how to use it in real customer conversations. I really came in thinking about what my sales reps actually need to be more confident, more consistent, and ultimately more effective. Of course, sellers needed content, but they also needed guidance, learning, reinforcement. Our leaders needed coaching and better visibility into what was working and what wasn’t. So in some ways, I approached enablement like building a product. My sellers were the users, the sales process was our workflow, and it was my job to understand their friction points and build them something that made it easier to have stronger customer conversations. RR: I love that. It’s enablement, but make it product marketing. You listed out some things that were important for sellers and things that were important for your leaders, and all of this you had to build from scratch. So as you were looking across what needed to happen, what your first few check boxes on the to-do list were, a key first step was assessing what you had and what you needed. How had RL Datix been supporting its sellers, and where did you start to see those first few gaps? JS: Yeah. When I first stepped into the role, we had a lot of strong subject matter expertise and a ton of people supporting the field in a variety of different ways. The issue wasn’t that our support structure didn’t exist, it was that it wasn’t really connected or, quite frankly, easy to scale. I had a lot of content, but it lived in a variety of different places. We had trainings, but much of it was event-based or dependent on live sessions and then going back and watching re-recordings. I needed to make sure my sellers were hearing the same message and had access to the same guidance on how we wanted our customers to hear about RL Datix and our offerings. And I needed visibility, not only for enablement, but for collaborative teams like product marketing and product, into what was actually being used, what was resonating with our customers, and where we still needed to support the field. So my final assessment really shaped the foundation that we built. It was truly creating what I call that connected enablement environment that could support sellers in the flow of their day-to-day work. RR: Yeah, and I think a recurring theme through all of this is that there were levers to pull, content to create, training to centralize, all of these things, but that wasn’t the end goal. The end goal was that when a seller hits the field, when a seller is on a Zoom call, they’re saying the right things, and they’re not just reading off bullets, they’re tailoring it because they know it and they know it well. So you’re looking at what you need to do. You have your content, you’re beginning to get it centralized and organized, your training is in place, you have data on what reps are using, you’re building. But you still can’t see inside the conversations that sellers are having to understand whether all of that work is, for lack of a better word, working. So what challenges did that lack of visibility create, and why did you start thinking that maybe a conversational intelligence tool was that next step forward? JS: Yeah. So when we brought Highspot in, we truly started with a baseline foundation. Before I could do anything more advanced, I needed to, step one, make it easier for sellers to just find what they needed and understand how to use it. It may sound really basic, but it was a huge step forward because it helped us connect content to the way sellers were actually selling. It also gave us a huge level of visibility. I could start to see what reps were using and what they were not using, to identify those true gaps. But the missing piece was actually our customer conversations. I could easily know if a rep opened a deck or completed a course, but I still didn’t know how that translated when they were in front of a customer. Were they asking strong discovery questions? Were they connecting the message to the customer’s priorities? How were we handling objections? What were we hearing? Without that level of visibility, there was still a lot of guesswork. Enablement, product marketing, product, and sales leaders were all trying to support the field, but a lot of times we were relying on anecdotal feedback or even secondhand information. Conversational intelligence really helped close that gap, and that foundation is really what made the next phase possible. Once we had the content, the training, and guidance all in one spot, I could start to think about how to layer other pieces in, like coaching, conversational intelligence, and eventually deal-level insights on top of it. RR: When you first had that line of sight into the field and what they were actually coming up against, was there anything that you didn’t expect that came through? Things that sellers were either saying that you were like, “Oh my gosh, have you been saying this for the last umpteen months?” Or that you had no idea they were running into that was a problem. You were like, “Oh, we should’ve been helping with this,” or, “We could be enabling differently.” JS: Yeah. I think for us, what it really helped open up was just the level of content that I needed. We had really great high-level intro, top-of-funnel materials, and then I would jump very quickly into technical documents. So I needed to be able to, like you said earlier, customize, and that was a gap that became pretty quickly consistent, that I needed to bring a middle-of-the-road option to help ultimately fast-track opportunities to close. It’s something that we’re still actively working through today. RR: Once you had that line of sight, not only into real-world conversations, but the analytics into usage that we’re talking about, what difference did that make for you and other cross-functional teams? We have this example of middle-of-the-funnel content, realizing this is a necessity and maybe we aren’t serving it. But were there any other moments that made it very clear this was helpful? JS: Yeah. It just gives me, and our whole company honestly, a much better shared understanding of what actually is happening in the field. From an enablement standpoint, it helps us see where reps were confident and where they needed support. Were they asking discovery questions? Were they connecting the message to customer priorities? It helped us figure out if there were gaps and ultimately skills I needed to help upskill. For our leaders, it gives them more specific coaching moments. So instead of coaching from memory or only from a pipeline update, they have the ability to coach from real customer interactions without having to sit in live on 50 calls a week. It also helped open up a level of visibility across cross-functional teams. Product marketing can come in and review whether messaging is landing, whether the decking is being used. They also get a great depth of understanding around customer questions, objections, and needs, more directly. So I’m not relying only on select feedback or the loudest feedback in the room. I use real customer conversation to keep improving our full enablement environment. RR: And as you alluded to, you’re beginning to use Deal Agent to capture deal-level insights and start to act on them. So how do you see it adding value to the environment you’ve already built and the environment you’ve already got your sellers comfortable using? JS: Yeah, Deal Agent is something we’re really excited about. We just launched it and had a full all-sales meeting with our Highspot customer success team, and it’s really that next layer of a foundation we’ve already built. We started with getting content and training all in one place. Now we’re layering in conversational intelligence, but Deal Agent is going to take that a step further for us by connecting the conversations and insights we’re gathering back to the opportunity level. This is really important for us because our sellers and our leaders don’t just need to know what happened on a call, they need to understand what that ultimately means for the deal, for them to close business. Are they talking to the right stakeholders? Are priorities clear? Do we have risks we need to address? For our sales reps, I think the value is that it can reduce some of the manual work and help them stay focused on the right actions. For leaders, it gives clear visibility into deal health and where they may need to coach. For the rest of the organization, it gives us another level of insight, so I can look to see what patterns are building across opportunities. The AI agents built into it are amazing too, because they’re helping eliminate some admin burden by building Digital Rooms faster, with the content needed at that moment for that deal. RR: And I think what’s kind of interesting is that this is a vision you see, and you’re like, “I see so much value in this. I see what the potential is.” But it’s so new, and it’s such a new way of working for literally everybody. You’re not trying to roll out a program you’ve seen elsewhere, you’re on the cutting edge. So how have you been tackling things like the rollout, the behavior change, getting folks accustomed to this very new way of working? JS: Yeah. So for us, it was big. We didn’t really have any tools like this in place already. The biggest thing we’ve learned is that you cannot roll it out as just another tool. Sellers already have a lot of tools, and if something feels disconnected from their day-to-day workflow, adoption is going to be really difficult. So we tried to anchor the rollout in practical use cases. How does it help a rep prepare for a meeting? Does it help them follow up faster, remember what the customer actually said? For our sales leaders, we’re focusing now on that next phase of coaching and visibility, helping them find a better way to understand what’s happening in their field and coach their teams appropriately. But in all honesty, there is a bit of change management. It’s a different way of working for some reps. Some reps were super excited and dove in headfirst, and others really needed to see the value a few times before it clicked and became muscle memory. So I try to keep that adoption path clear and practical. I’m not asking people to change everything overnight. We’re helping them build small habits: review call summaries, look at action items, use that deal-level information to pressure test next steps, use Digital Rooms or Pitches to send content and see what customers are engaging with. The key for us was making it feel useful before making it feel mandatory. Once people saw that it could save them time and improve their follow-up, it became less intimidating, and after a certain period of time, I was actually able to pull down any old resources they may have had a habit of going back to. RR: And since you’ve gone live with both Highspot and Deal Agent, what have you heard from the field on how they’re responding to it? JS: Yeah, so anecdotally we’ve heard that being able to get those next action items and the call takeaway was a really big piece. Being able to more easily share back the call recording also saved some steps from how they used to do it before. Deal Agent is still relatively new for us, but I think where we’re honing in is the ability to slice data in different ways, by our sales forecasting, by our sales stages, and then really pairing that with a lot of the intelligence and reporting we already have in Salesforce. That gives us and our leadership a much deeper understanding of what’s truly happening and where leaders need to step in. RR: So to your point of don’t boil the ocean, there are a handful of use cases that your sellers like, that you like, that your leaders like, that are slowly building the muscle. And over time, things might change, new use cases might emerge, but as of right now, there are a few recurring things that it sounds like people really are finding useful. Super cool, I love that. And you touched on this a little bit, but I’d love to hear a little bit more about how this is helping you solve for some of the guesswork you were feeling. We talked about building without knowing what was being used by the field and what was landing. So now that you have that combination of conversation, deal data, and usage data, how does that change what you and other teams are building and providing to your reps? JS: Yeah. It really helped us move from a state of assumption to being evidence-backed. Before, I had a lot of smart people supporting the field, but we would build materials based on individual feedback or something needed for one deal, and assume it was scalable across all deals. It’s not necessarily a wrong way to do it, but it’s an incomplete way to do it. Now that I’ve got conversations and deal data all in one spot, I can start to pull out patterns. Where can I look to see what customers are actually asking? Where can I look to see what customers are actually engaging with? Is it the same consistent objection that keeps coming up, and are we answering it in the right way? For my team, it means we’re much more targeted. Maybe the answer is a new training. Maybe it’s a better talk track or coaching around certain areas of the sales process. It could be working with product marketing to create a new Sales Play, or a clearer way to help position our value. The biggest change is that we’re actively, every day, listening, learning, and adjusting based on what’s actually happening out in the field. RR: I love that. And I think that middle-of-the-funnel example is such a good example of how you can stitch all that information together and recognize that there’s a component of your strategy you can really pull on that might be particularly valuable. So I love that we have that, not only the high level of what it’s doing, but how it comes into play in the actual work happening. Okay, so looking back, a year ago now, a few months ago now with Deal Agent, from where you started to where you are now, what’s the biggest impact you’ve achieved, or the proudest moment that sticks with you? JS: I think the thing I’m most proud of is that we built something literally from the ground up, and it changed how enablement shows up for our business. The biggest impact has been moving from a fragmented environment to a connected foundation that can be structured, measured, and embedded into how our go-to-market teams work. I can actually see that in a shift in our numbers. When we first brought Highspot on board, it was specifically a sales-only tool. I didn’t have any other broader teams in the tooling, and now we’ve doubled our Highspot user base. I’ve expanded from supporting just sales to supporting the broader go-to-market team. Training has been one of our largest wins. We’ve moved from one-off live training to structured onboarding paths and ongoing learning. We’re actually in the midst of a current go-to-market training refresh, taking everyone through our RL Datix 360, as we call it, and I went from maybe a 4% completion rate in the early days to now seeing nearly 100% completion. Last time I looked, we were at around 97 or 98%. That’s a huge shift in the consistency and accountability I have with my field. For content, 91% of our internal audiences are viewing our content in Highspot, and I’ve got close to 500 opportunities actively engaging with our content. So it’s telling me this isn’t just a repository where things sit. It’s becoming embedded in their daily workflows, in how they prepare, sell, and engage our customers. There’s also a time-savings piece. It’s a little harder to quantify, but I feel it every day. I’m still working toward maturing how we connect this directly to revenue outcomes like win rate and pipeline movement, but now I’ve got a solid foundation, a high level of adoption, and the visibility to keep building toward that. RR: Jill, the volume of work that happened in one year, when we talk about building the foundation, that’s the year. But you took 365 days, built out the foundation, drove the behavior change, and now you’re already in the midst of that next phase of evolution and getting people on board. So bravo, I don’t know how you did that. Hope you’re sleeping. I’d love to get a little bit of perspective on how you did it, for other leaders who are in that phase of building a strategy from the ground up. How would you recommend they get started, especially in an AI-first world? JS: Yeah. We went live with the product really, really fast. I had a great team behind me, and we worked hard every single day to get things built. But my advice would be actually not to start with AI. It’s probably going to be a little controversial, but I think you should start with the problem you’re trying to solve. It can be really tempting to jump straight into the newest tool or capability, but if your foundation isn’t there, AI can just make the mess faster. I would start by understanding where the friction is for your sellers and go-to-market teams. Can they find what they need? Do they understand the message in training? Do they know what good looks like? Are managers coaching consistently? Do you have visibility into what’s happening in customer conversations? Can you tell what’s helping deals move forward or stall? Once you understand those gaps, you can be more intentional about where AI fits. Can it help a rep prepare faster, summarize conversations, surface deal risk, build up Digital Rooms? It should really be tied to a true, real workflow and a business need. This is when AI becomes much more powerful, because it’s got the right context. It’s not just another tool. It’s a way to scale insight, reduce manual work, and help the team make better decisions faster. So for an enablement leader starting from scratch, I’d say: listen first, build your foundation, solve the real frictions in your sales force, and then use AI to scale what’s already working. RR: I really liked the question framework you threw out there. Because I think especially when people are starting to build, you have this insane arena of potential work to be done. And when you can start to ask the right questions that build toward the right purpose, you can get to the exciting work down the line. Well, Jill, thank you so much for chatting with us today. It’s been really wonderful to hear a little bit about what you’re building, how you’re thinking about building, and I’m so curious to see what’s next down the line. We’ll have to stay in touch. JS: Yeah. Thanks so much for having me. This was great. RR: To our audience, thank you for listening to this episode of the Win/Win Podcast. Be sure to tune in next time for more insights on how you can maximize go-to-market success with Highspot.

Long before Daniel Boone opened the Wilderness Road or became an American frontier legend, he spent months at a time traveling through the wilderness as a long hunter. Those early journeys were not undertaken for fame or adventure. Boone entered the forest to hunt, collect hides, and build a life for his family. The work demanded patience, adaptability, and the ability to endure long stretches of isolation. It also exposed him to losses that would test whether he was willing to return. In Episode 2 of The Honest Outdoors, Mike Martin looks beyond Boone's familiar legend to explore the years that prepared him for the Cumberland Gap. From the silence and uncertainty of the backcountry to the loss of months of hard-earned work, this episode asks what the wilderness was building inside Boone before there was ever a road through the mountains. The trail then turns toward Boone's attempted migration to Kentucky in 1773. He entered the mountains believing he was leading his family—including his oldest son, James—toward a better future. Before that painful chapter can be understood, however, the story slows down at Solomon's Cave. Some parts of history should not be hurried past. This episode begins examining what it cost Boone to become the man history remembers—and prepares the ground for the story that continues in the next episode. In This Episode Daniel Boone's early years as a long hunter What months in the wilderness demanded of Boone Mike's reflections from retracing Boone's footsteps The isolation, silence, and uncertainty of the backcountry The theft of hides representing months of Boone's work The deeper loss hidden behind material failure Why Boone continued returning to the wilderness Boone's attempted journey to Kentucky in 1773 The hope of creating a better future for his family Why the story of James Boone deserves time, patience, and respect A pause at Solomon's Cave before the journey continues Memorable Quote “I don't think the greatest thing Daniel Boone ever built was the Wilderness Road.
