This week, Jason is joined by entrepreneur, marketing professional, and more notable, a personality on Bravo's Real Housewives of New York City, Brynn Whitfield! Brynn joined the rebooted cast of RHONY, which wrapped up in January. Prior to diving into reality TV, Brynn worked on an award-winning campaign for global campaigns of the largest companies managing and executing strategic media relations programs for clients spanning Shell Oil, Unilever, Johnson & Johnson, and many tech-based companies. More recently, Brynn co-founded a dating app strictly for college students called Hoppy.  Brynn gets candid about how The Real Housewives of New York discovered her, her complicated relationship with tech, and prepping for her Zoom interviews for RHONY. She shares which character she's often compared to, spending more on DoorDash than she earned in her first season, and why her professional life stays off-camera. As the only full-time working Housewife, she opens up about financial security, relationship accountability, prenups, NYC money mindset, and what she loves to splurge on—plus, rapid-fire cast questions, pitching a dating app idea to a Bumble founder, and her go-to advice for negotiation. Brynn reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!

Aim for the Uprights   In this episode of the Richer Soul podcast, Rocky Lalvani sits down with Stu Crum, a seasoned leader in the corporate world and former professional athlete. Stu shares his life journey, from playing college football to holding executive positions at Jiffy Lube and Bridgestone. Now, he's an advocate of "Intentional Living," a concept he outlines in his book Aim for the Uprights. Through his stories, Stu highlights how intentionality in faith, family, and business can shape a successful and fulfilling life. Key Takeaways: Intentional Living: Stu emphasizes the importance of being deliberate in every aspect of life. Whether it's managing finances, nurturing family relationships, or leading a business, intentionality is key to long-term success. Hard Work and Financial Literacy: Growing up in a financially literate family, Stu learned the value of hard work and money management early on. He also passed these lessons to his own children, expanding their understanding of investing. Overcoming Challenges: Stu's journey wasn't without obstacles, but his leadership skills and mindset helped him navigate both personal and professional challenges effectively. Money Learning: Stu's parents played a pivotal role in his financial education, making him "money literate" by his teenage years. They instilled in him the value of saving, budgeting, and working hard to earn money. However, Stu shared that while his family taught him to save, they didn't dive deep into investment strategies. This realization led him to ensure that his own children had a more comprehensive financial education, including understanding investments and creating wealth beyond saving. Stu also noted how financial literacy is different today, with technology enabling anyone to invest with ease—something that wasn't as accessible during his early years. Bio: Stu Crum is a former college football star who transitioned from the sports field to the corporate boardroom. Over the years, he held leadership roles at Texaco, Shell Oil, Jiffy Lube, and Bridgestone. Stu worked on big deals with influential figures like Carl Icahn and developed his leadership philosophy from both his personal and professional experiences. His concept of Intentional Living is explored further in his book, Aim for the Uprights: The Intentional Playbook for Success in Faith, Family, and Business. Learn more at stucrum.com. Key Discussion Points: Learning the Value of Money: Stu shared how he grew up in an upper-middle-class family where financial literacy was highly emphasized. His parents were intentional about teaching him the importance of money and working hard to earn it, a mindset that stuck with him throughout his life. Financial Knowledge Gap: Stu revealed that while he was well-prepared in managing money, his parents didn't teach him much about investing. This motivated him to be more intentional with his children, discussing investment strategies early on to ensure they understood how to grow their wealth. From Football to Business: Stu talked about how his football background, especially playing in highly competitive environments, shaped his leadership skills. He carried this competitive drive and discipline into his corporate career, eventually leading some of the biggest companies in their sectors. The Importance of Intentional Living: One of Stu's core messages is that success in any area—whether in family life, business, or personal growth—requires intentionality. He believes in setting clear goals and following through with deliberate actions to achieve them. This has been his guiding philosophy in both his personal and professional life. Navigating Financial Changes: Stu reflected on the significant changes in how people approach finances today. With investment apps and zero-fee trading platforms, it has become easier to invest, unlike the days when stock trades could cost hundreds of dollars. He advised staying intentional with money, whether it's in managing day-to-day expenses or making long-term investments. Conclusion: Stu Crum's journey from college football to corporate leadership is a testament to the power of intentional living. By staying true to his values, working hard, and always learning, he's been able to lead a fulfilling life both personally and professionally. His advice on being intentional with finances, family, and career is both timeless and highly relevant in today's fast-paced world. This episode serves as a reminder to live with purpose, set clear goals, and never stop striving for improvement in all areas of life.   Links: stucrum.com Linkedln-  linkedin.com/in/stucrum Twitter – https://x.com/Stucrum6     Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

When is the last time you heard someone say, “I love email?” I would bet, probably never. Every day it seems like we're swamped with more spam. And when we do actually rely on email for something important, well, you know how that goes. You send someone an email and ask them three questions. They reply to one. You reply with a comment about their reply and re-ask your other two questions. They reply with a comment on a whole other subject and before you know it you've got a long list of back and forward messages you're scrolling through looking for who said what, when. It's just so totally inefficient. Now, imagine that you're an architect and you have to rely on this kind of communication with multiple contractors and sub-contractors to manage a construction project. This is what actually happens in the real world. It's crazy. And that's why Chuck Perret created a company called Centerline. Chuck says the goal of the company is, “to kill email.” Centerline is cloud-based data management for architects that pulls all of their project-related information out of their inbox and puts it into what's called a Project Information Model. Chuck launched Centerline in 2021, began taking clients in 2022, saw 350% growth in 2023, and today the company has architectural firm clients across the country. If  Centerline is a software solution that solves a problem for a specific industry, imagine a company that solves any kind of problem, by simplifying any kind of task with software solutions, for any industry. Oil and gas. Maritime. Healthcare. Even sports, and local government. You might be thinking, “That sounds a bit ambitious.” Well, sometimes shooting for the stars works, because that's what Kellen Francis's company, Codegig, does. One of Codegig's major clients is Shell. Not a local Shell gas station, but 30 different departments of Shell Oil, including the entire Gulf Coast. They also work with another couple of companies you may have heard of: Dow Chemical and Valero. Anyone who's ever had a job has had "one of those days" at work. One of those days where whatever we're doing is so tedious, or the opposite – so mind-bogglingly difficult – that you just stop in your tracks and think, “Theres' got to be a better way.” What happens after that, typically, is that we suck it up and get on with it. But every once in a while, guys like Chuck and Kellen come along and actually invent a better way.

When Stu Crum's college football heroics put him on the national radar as a model student-athlete, the expectations for a bright future could not have predicted his soaring ascent in business. Tagged as a winner with a natural gift for leadership, Crum made his name internationally in key positions with Texaco, Shell Oil, Jiffy Lube, and Bridgestone, wrangling deals with the likes of activist investor Carl Icahn and other heavy hitters.Yet beneath the surface lay a deeper man. While still at Tulsa University, Crum devoted his life to his faith and embraced servant leadership as his game plan for ultimate success in business, family, faith and fun. Despite personal setbacks and injury-laden stints with the NFL and USFL, Crum blossomed at every turn by developing a simple, dynamic playbook that put his every aspiration within reach. He calls it intentional living.Aim for the UprightsStu Crum Website Chasing What Matters Instagram

Jeff and Lason spend time with Lisa Jaster, author of Delete The Adjective. Lisa Jaster is an American soldier, combat engineer, and one of the first three women to graduate the elite United States Army Ranger program in 2015. One of the most difficult combat training courses in the world, Lisa was the first reservist to complete the course. She graduated at age 37, while the average trainee age is 23. Lisa, an athlete focused on strength training and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, has a deeply rooted understanding of the importance of perseverance through continual progress and growth, as well as an ingrained respect for camaraderie and selfless service stemming from a noteworthy active-duty career (including tours in Iraq and Afghanistan).  Prior to receiving her esteemed Ranger tab, Lisa worked as an engineer with Shell Oil in Houston and an Army Reserve individual mobilization augmentee with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Her background in both the military and corporate worlds allows her to connect with any audience to create a memorable experience. Lisa initially was commissioned in the Army in 2000 after graduating from the United States Military Academy at West Point and returned to the reserves in 2012 after a 5-year hiatus from serving. She volunteered for combat training when she discovered the Army Ranger course was being opened to women for the first time in 60 years as a U.S. government experiment to see how women would fare in the notoriously brutal program. Lisa is the recipient of numerous military accolades including two Bronze Star Medals and the Meritorious Service Medal. Lisa left active duty in 2007 and started a family and civilian career with Shell but returned to the Army as a reservist in 2012. Lisa holds a BS and MS in Civil Engineering. She focuses her efforts on training management teams, executive coaching, and keynote speaking. She also works with Leading Authorities, LLC as a keynote speaker.

Judge Sharon Gleason is the Chief Judge of the United State District Court for the District of Alaska. She was appointed by Barack Obama in 2012 after serving 11 years as a judge on the Alaska Superior Court. She is the first woman to serve as a federal judge for Alaska. On March 29, 2024, she released a 29-page decision against the fishing of the Kuskokwim River by urban fishermen, reserving subsistence fishing only to rural Alaskans. Read more here.Her fame as a federal judge stems from important environment rulings including her 2015 ruling that fined Greenpeace $2500 per hour that they blocked Shell Oil icebreaker from leaving Portland to head to the arctic for drilling operations. In 2019 she found that President Trump unlawfully sought to open the Chukchi Sea for offshore drilling; that same year she also blocked road construction between King Cove and Cold Bay. And in November 2023 she upheld the Biden administration's approval of the Willow project rejecting Inupiat and environmental claims against it.This interview came about after I gave a special order on the House floor in honor of the country of Estonia's Independence Day. The most famous Estonian-Alaskan is Judge Sharon Gleason. She is the granddaughter of Timotheus Grünthal – he was an Estonian politician serving in the Estonian parliament; Judge Gleason's Grandmother was Vera Poska-Grünthal was a leading Estonian Feminist and a founder of the International Federation of Women's Lawyers. Vera's father, Judge Gleason's great-grandfather, was Jaan Poska who was the first ethnic Estonian admitted to the bar in Tallinn, the capitol of Estonia. Poska served as mayor of Tallinn from 1913-1917 and then became the governor of the Autonomous Governorate of Estonia in 1917. The Republic of Estonia was formally declared on 24 of February 1918 and Judge Gleason's Great Grandfather was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs. He negotiated the Treaty of Tartu with Russia in 1920, and he was a drafter of the Estonian Constitution. So our guest today is a direct descendent of a founding father of Estonia.This interview was recorded on Zoom and there was a sound issue with Judge Gleason's microphone. I apologize for the buzzing sound.

Born in North Texas, Freeman was too young to participate in WWII with his 5 older brothers.  However, he always wanted to fight as a Marine and planned on joining up when the time came.  That time was in June 1950 at the outbreak of the Korean War.  After basic and combat training, Freeman made a trip across the Pacific with the 3rd Battalion, 1st Marines.  He fought with his fellow infantrymen on the front lines until his life almost came to an end when a grenade detonated in front of him.  Freeman finished out the rest of his tour driving officers around and dodging mortar rounds.  After the war, he married his sweetheart, had 4 kids and worked for Shell Oil for 30 years.If you have any questions, comments or ideas for future episodes, please contact me at: RememerMyNamePodcast@gmail.com

Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and real submersible talk! We're certainly hoping for good news for the five aboard the Titan submersible, but we can't help but marvel at the hubris and lack of regulations that got us here. UPDATE: Bud Light is no longer the number 1 selling beer in the US: it has been replaced by Modelo Especial. Andrew strikes back: after being triggered last week by Laura's character assassination of Corona Light, Andy stands in defense of his beloved pilsner style lager. Illinois is banning... book bans! They're the first state to do this in response to local and national increases in book banning attempts in the last year. Can the Biden admin really tout their latest achievement re: Ticketmaster as a crackdown on junk fees? Sure, consumers can expect to start seeing these upfront now, but it doesn't (yet) prevent ticket companies from charging these fees. Reddit, aka "the front page of the internet" is under fire due to another douchey tech CEO doing douchey tech CEO things. Reddit announced that they will begin charging developers for API calls to Reddit servers, resulting in a potential yearly cost of $20 million for developers who maintain third party Reddit apps. The rub? These third party apps are widely regarded to be better than Reddit's official one! To top the drama off, CEO Steve Huffman has been mishandling communications on the subject and threatening Reddit's community of unpaid moderators. In response, thousands of subreddits have gone dark, and many others have begun posting explicit content in protest. And because life isn't crazy enough, a global cyber attack successfully breached several government agencies and private companies last week, including the US Department of Energy, Shell Oil, and University of Georgia, among others. While we're on the topic of security, let's talk credit card security! We share our tips and tricks for keeping your credit cards secure, and make some recommendations around our favorite credit cards. Andrew's a big fan of the Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card This week's recommendations are all over the place: Keep an eye on SCOTUS decisions to be released Thursday for potential student loan updates (Laura), NerdWallet (Pam), and 'The Other Two' for the best depictions (and predictions) of Hollywood (Andrew). And in this week's installment of After Dark, available on Patreon and Apple Podcasts: There's nothing more cringe than a workplace icebreaker, and we're inspired to discuss them and childhood cringe by this tweet. We each bring a never before shared childhood cringe story - some of these revelations are SHOCKING! We each bring our own ice breaker question to the table, and pose them to each other.

How much should rankings influence your decision about where to attend law school? On this week's episode, Ben and Nathan rebrand their “100% rule” as the “2x rule” for law school rankings. The name's changed, but the rule is the same: When comparing one school to another, you shouldn't consider their rankings unless they differ by twice as much or more. The guys also discuss how to study like a top scorer, advise a struggling student not to let the LSAT dominate their life, and write a GPA addendum. LSAT Demon LSAT Demon iOS App LSAT Demon Daily Watch Episode 361 on YouTube Thinking LSAT YouTube LSAT Demon YouTube 4:37 - Yield-Protection Worries: Demon student Anna's GPA and LSAT score are so high that she worries her top-choice school might waitlist her for yield protection. Ben and Nathan recommend that Anna visit the school to demonstrate her genuine interest and ties to the community. 16:27 - The 2x Rule: Ben proposes a new name for the 100% rule for law school rankings: the 2x rule. Follow this rule when comparing law schools. Rankings should influence your decision to choose one school over another only when they differ by twice as much or more. 18:37 - Getting to the 170s: Listener Hasaan has improved substantially from his diagnostic score and wonders whether he can make it to the 170s. Nathan and Ben's advice? Start studying like someone who scores in the 170s. Forget the clock, focus on accuracy, and trust that speed will follow. 26:32 - Oracles of Common Sense: LSAT Demon student Ola finally understands Logical Reasoning and compares Ben and Nathan to Greek oracles. Are their teachings oracular insight, or just common sense? 28:06 - Follow Through with Something New: Anonymous is a self-described “serial studier with no follow-through” who's been studying off and on for six years. Lawyers don't lack follow-through, the guys note. They suspect that Anonymous might've been using bad prep materials and recommend trying LSAT Demon for a month. If it doesn't start to click, Anonymous may want to reconsider law school. 31:41 - The LSAT Shouldn't Dominate Your Life: Listener Robert describes his LSAT woes. Despite prep courses, a tutor, and 10 weeks of full-time study, his score hasn't improved. His friends and family tell him to quit. Should he heed their advice? Ben and Nathan suggest some radical changes to Robert's approach. 46:29 - Be a Big Fish: LSAT Demon student Kash wonders whether earning a high class rank at a less-competitive school might serve him better than attending a top-ranked school. Nathan and Ben reiterate the benefits of attending the highest-ranked law school you can go to for free. They also discuss a 2010 Above the Law article about Shell Oil's tiered ranking system for evaluating job applicants. 57:18 - Ben Writes a GPA Addendum: Ben demonstrates how to write a short GPA addendum that focuses on the facts and doesn't make excuses.
