In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer, Tyson interviews Travis Hoechlin and Vaidas Cikotas about how law firms can grow beyond referrals by embracing modern marketing strategies. They highlight the risks of relying solely on referrals, the need for a strong online presence, and the importance of effective intake processes. Solely relying on referrals can limit the growth of a law firm. It is important to diversify clientele and how you get revenue. For some, relying on referrals means a firm doesn't need to take time to update their website or care about how they are perceived to people trying to figure out more. This can really become problematic because referrals are not always guaranteed and you are missing out on a large portion of people who you could engage with.Though marketing is an important aspect of a firm, poor processes can make efforts useless. You can market your firm to the point where you are getting a lot of calls and interest. But, if your intake process is not good or your staff are not on top of the phone line, you are losing interest from people who are going off of first impressions. It is important to establish good intake processes to ensure your firm can flourish.Take a listen to learn more!05:41 Risks of Referral-Only Growth09:22 Catching Up After Neglecting Marketing 12:56 Short-Term vs. Long-Term Marketing Strategies17:58 Why Marketing Efforts Sometimes Fail24:20 Improving Intake and Staff Training 27:51 Website Conversion Optimization TipsTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with RizeUp Media:Website  Instagram  Facebook  LinkedinX

In this conversation on "TAX ALPHA", Frazer Rice and BRENT SULLIVAN (of TAX ALPHA INSIDER) delve into the complexities of tax awareness in investing, focusing on capital gains, income tax, and various strategies for tax efficiency. They discuss the importance of tax loss harvesting, the challenges of managing concentrated portfolios, and the implications of estate planning.

I've been following it to call a blog I don't think gives it the proper respect because I think you're uncovering a lot of great information for advisors like me and wealthy people and other people generally speaking in terms of Really getting going on the tax alpha end of it Let's start a little bit with some basics because I think you know for someone new to the concept of Being particularly tax aware in terms of investing taxes can be, they're more than just income tax, that's for sure. How do you think about it? How do you get your framework around what people are trying to avoid when they're dealing with their investable portfolios? Brent Sullivan (00:45.723)Yeah, I mean, there are really just a couple of different ways to break it down, but I probably start with the concept of a capital gain as a distinct thing from income tax. so capital gains come in really like four different flavors. There's short-term capital gains, short-term capital losses, and then long-term capital gains, long-term capital losses. And then these things are different if you have collectibles or other types of instruments too. But the point is here that you've got those four quadrants that you're always sort of operating in.

"When things are going well, it's exciting. When they're not, you don't know where the bottom is."In this episode, entrepreneur, author, and developer Jose Berlanga and I discuss navigating complexity and leadership lessons learned from childhood adversity and many years of leading through high-stakes moments. We specifically discuss the importance of calculated risk-taking, building resilient teams, creating contingency plans, and the difference between leadership under pressure and micromanaging out of fear. In high-stakes moments, success often hinges not on avoiding risk, but on knowing which ones are worth taking, and leading with conviction when the path forward is unclear.Key Takeaways:--> Discomfort is ConstantLeading through difficulty isn't an exception—it's the norm, especially in entrepreneurship.--> Risk as a Way of LifeEarly adversity can build resilience; successful leaders develop a tolerance for discomfort and pressure.--> Preparation > PredictionContingency planning is critical. Leaders can't afford denial or false optimism in crisis moments.--> Delegation is a SkillLet go of tasks incrementally, starting with repetitive, non-critical areas. Avoid micromanaging.--> Team PowerBuild a proactive team that can think and act independently. Leadership shifts you from doing to coordinating.--> Short-Term vs. Long-Term ThinkingIn crises, long-term strategy narrows to survival mode—prioritize urgent, essential tasks.This episode will help you navigate those complex, high-stakes moments with more clarity, confidence, and ease. Listen in!---Jose Berlanga, an entrepreneur from Mexico City with over 35 years of experience, has made a significant mark in Houston's real estate industry, notably through co-founding Tricon Homes.

America’s prescription drug supply is under siege — and President Trump is putting his foot down. For decades, China has controlled the lion’s share of the raw ingredients and finished medicines flowing into our pharmacies. Now, with Trump’s plan to slap tariffs on those imports, drug prices could go up in the short term. The media will scream, Big Pharma will panic, and politicians will play fear games. But make no mistake: this is Trump’s bold gamble to bring pharmaceutical manufacturing back to U.S. soil. Yes, it may sting at first — your prescriptions may cost more. But this short-term pain paves the way for long-term security. No more foreign dependency. No more supply chain blackmail from Beijing. Trump is betting that an America that makes its own medicine is an America that is stronger, safer, and more independent than ever before. On today’s episode of Stinchfield, I break down why the elites hate this plan, why the pharmaceutical lobby fears losing their sweetheart deals with China, and why you should see these tariffs not as a cost — but as an investment in our nation’s health freedom. If this drug tariff fight tells us anything, it’s that America is vulnerable when it comes to our medicine. We rely on China, we rely on fragile supply chains, and that means when things break down — you and your family pay the price. That’s why I’ve partnered with The Wellness Company to bring you their Emergency Prescription Medical Kit. It’s peace of mind in a box — critical, doctor-prescribed medicines you can’t just grab off the shelf. Imagine a supply chain crisis, a disaster, or even just your local pharmacy being out of stock… this kit means you’re covered. Go to www.twc.health/grant and use promo code GRANT for a big discount.

In a business climate shaped by rapid technological disruption, shifting geopolitical landscapes, and evolving customer expectations, strategy cannot remain static. JD Carter, Chief Strategy Officer at Vasion, believes the key to success lies in constantly aligning vision with execution while adapting to market realities in real time. In this conversation, JD shares how his role involves continuously monitoring external signals such as technology shifts, regulatory changes, and economic pressures, then translating those insights into operational action. We explore his approach to looking beyond the company vision by breaking it down into achievable missions that link long-term goals with day-to-day work across cross-functional teams. A major focus of the discussion is AI readiness and how organisations can move beyond hype to real impact. JD outlines a five-stage process for becoming AI-ready, starting with digitising and centralising documents and data, followed by cleaning and structuring information for use with large language models. He explains how automating repetitive workflows, modernising infrastructure, and ensuring interoperability across systems such as ERP and HR platforms create the foundation for orchestrated automation at scale. Governance and access controls complete the picture, ensuring that AI deployment meets both internal and regulatory standards. We also look at how Vasion balances short-term market needs with a long-term platform vision. JD describes how leveraging the company's market-leading print infrastructure products supports current growth, while investing in R&D drives the development of a multi-product SaaS platform designed to integrate AI across the enterprise. A customer-first mindset shapes every decision, from pricing to product development, with continuous engagement through advisory boards, surveys, and direct conversations ensuring that partner strategies align with customer priorities. To illustrate these principles in action, JD shares how Vasion responded to market demand for system-generated print job support by developing a SaaS-based output automation product. This pivot addressed a gap created by ERP and EMR vendors moving customers to the cloud and positioned Vasion at the start of its multi-product journey. We discuss the signals leaders should watch to keep strategy relevant, including shifts in customer behaviour, the pace of technology adoption, and internal friction that may indicate misalignment. JD likens strategy to a GPS system, with vision as the destination and constant recalibration required to navigate roadblocks and changing conditions. The conversation closes with a focus on embedding strategic agility into company culture. JD explains Vasion's Missions of Aspirational Performance system, which connects corporate values directly to execution by breaking down strategic goals into work that individuals can see contributing to the bigger picture. He also shares his personal three-pronged approach to continuous learning, combining formal education, informal learning, and mentor-driven guidance. This episode offers practical insight for leaders navigating uncertainty, balancing present-day demands with future opportunity, and embedding adaptability into the DNA of their organisations.

Karen Veraa-Perry says investors are favoring short-term durations in fixed income, but sees an opportunity to add duration and maximize income before the next Fed rate cut. She also notes that ETFs are becoming a preferred vehicle as they offer tradability and access to active strategies. Karen discusses the performance of actively managed fixed income ETFs versus passive ones and highlights the importance of considering duration and credit risk when investing in a bond ETF.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

So will AI wipe us out? According to Geoffrey Hinton, the 2024 Nobel laureate in physics, there's about a 10-20% chance of AI being humanity's final invention. Which, as the so-called Godfather of AI acknowledges, is his way of saying he has no more idea than you or I about its species-killing qualities. That said, Hinton is deeply concerned about some of the consequences of an AI revolution that he pioneered at Google. From cyber attacks that could topple major banks to AI-designed viruses, from mass unemployment to lethal autonomous weapons, Hinton warns we're facing unprecedented risks from technology that's evolving faster than our ability to control it. So does he regret his role in the invention of generative AI? Not exactly. Hinton believes the AI revolution was inevitable—if he hadn't contributed, it would have been delayed by perhaps a week. Instead of dwelling on regret, he's focused on finding solutions for humanity to coexist with superintelligent beings. His radical proposal? Creating "AI mothers" with strong maternal instincts toward humans—the only model we have for a more powerful being designed to care for a weaker one.1. Nobody Really Knows the Risk Level Hinton's 10-20% extinction probability is essentially an admission of complete uncertainty. As he puts it, "the number means nobody's got a clue what's going to happen" - but it's definitely more than 1% and less than 99%.2. Short-Term vs. Long-Term Threats Are Fundamentally Different Near-term risks involve bad actors misusing AI (cyber attacks, bioweapons, surveillance), while the existential threat comes from AI simply outgrowing its need for humans - something we've never faced before.3. We're Creating "Alien Beings" Right Now Unlike previous technologies, AI represents actual intelligent entities that can understand, plan, and potentially manipulate us. Hinton argues we should be as concerned as if we spotted an alien invasion fleet through a telescope.4. The "AI Mothers" Solution Hinton's radical proposal: instead of trying to keep AI submissive (which won't work when it's smarter than us), we should engineer strong maternal instincts into AI systems - the only model we have of powerful beings caring for weaker ones.5. Superintelligence Is Coming Within 5-20 Years Most leading experts believe human-level AI is inevitable, followed quickly by superintelligence. Hinton's timeline reflects the consensus among researchers, despite the wide range.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Tirzepatide and other GLP-1 medications can be helpful for improving metabolism, but they work best when used thoughtfully. Short-term or low-dose use, combined with balanced hormones, good nutrition, and regular exercise, can lead to better body composition and overall health. Relying on these medications alone especially at a young age can create unnecessary risks and overlook the real lifestyle changes needed for lasting results.Instead of focusing only on the number on the scale, the goal should be to build muscle, reduce excess fat, and give the body the nutrients it needs. For older adults with long-term metabolic issues, a personalized plan that includes GLP-1 therapy, supplements, and strength training can make a big difference. Used as part of a healthy routine rather than a quick fix, these medications can be a valuable tool in supporting long-term wellness.Highlights of the Podcast00:00 – Short-Term vs. Long-Term Use01:23 – Lack of Long-Term Data & Risk of Dependence04:02 – Microdosing for Older Adults05:21 – Realistic Recovery for the Metabolically Broken06:34 – Importance of Personalized Dosing09:18 – Younger Adults Should Focus on Lifestyle First11:36 – Long-Term Caution for Younger Users12:58 – Diet and Hormone Interaction14:09 – Foundation Before Medication16:28 – Responsibility in Supporting the Body

Malcolm Christie, Dominic Dietrich and Ed Dawes reflect on the first week of the 2025/26 season.

An interview with Dr. Chloë Williamson, Lecturer at the University of Edinburgh.We're not rational, and the guidelines and the way they're traditionally messaged and have been messaged assumes that humans are rational and that they'll do things that they know is good for them. But in actual fact, your day to day behavior is driven by what you enjoy. And if people can find a physical activity they enjoy and if that's how we can change the way people think about physical activity, to not being a chore, to not being a punishment, not being a way to just burn calories, but a way to have fun and feel good, then I think that's what we need to see.Dr. Chloë WilliamsonMotivation for researching physical activity messagingEffective physical activity messagingPhysical Activity Messaging FrameworkChecklist for physical activity messagingMessaging physical activity to new mothersMatching messaging to messaging channelsChanging how people think about physical activityPrioritizing enjoyment and short-term benefits in physical activity messaginghttps://www.movetolivemore.com/https://www.movetolivemore.com/bookhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/move-to-live-more@MovetoLiveMorehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/357165934_The_Physical_Activity_Messaging_Framework_PAMF_and_Checklist_PAMC_International_consensus_statement_and_user_guide

Like it or not, Trump and his surreal version of a libertarian patrimonial America is reshaping the world. At least in what the FT's Janan Ganesh dubs “the high summer of Donald Trump”. But my old friend Jason Pack, host of the excellent Disorder podcast, doesn't believe that a strategy of short-term chaos is a viable long-term global strategy for America. Pack argues that while Trump may be achieving tactical wins through short-term disruptions—from ending the Iran-Israel conflict to forcing favorable trade negotiations—this approach fundamentally undermines the strategic international coordination needed to address existential challenges like AI regulation, climate change, and systemic economic and military competition with China. Without coherent global governance structures, Pack predicts, we're sleepwalking into a long-term disordered world where private tech giants wield more power than governments themselves. Trump's high summer of disorder, he warns, could degenerate into an apocalyptic winter of our collective discontent.1. Trump's Chaos Is Actually Strategic Success Despite appearing haphazard, Trump has achieved major goals through disorder - ending the Iran-Israel conflict with bunker buster bombs, securing favorable trade deals through tariff threats, and making himself the global "swing player" that everyone must negotiate with.2. America's Disproportionate Global Leverage The US economy, though only 1.8 times larger than Europe's, wields 5-6 times the global influence. Trump has discovered how to weaponize this asymmetry more ruthlessly than previous presidents, while Europe remains largely irrelevant in AI and tech.3. Private Tech Giants Now Rival Government Power Multi-trillion dollar companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Nvidia are becoming more powerful than governments themselves. The old DARPA model of government-led innovation has given way to private sector dominance, fundamentally reshaping the relationship between state and market.4. The Missing "NATO for AI" Pack argues we desperately need international coordination structures to govern AI development, data storage, and energy infrastructure. Without treaty-based cooperation among democracies, we're ceding control to either authoritarian regimes or unaccountable private companies.5. A Crisis May Be Necessary to Restore Government Both analysts suggest that only a major catastrophe - economic crash, environmental disaster, or military conflict - will force people to recognize government's essential role. Until then, we're trapped in "libertarian patrimonialism" where personal networks trump institutional governance.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Economist Christian Briggs unpacks the first 24 hours of President Trump's new tariff strategy, explaining why the immediate inflationary pinch could lead to a stronger, fairer U.S. trade landscape. While acknowledging higher short-term costs for everyday goods, Briggs points to Trump's tactical negotiations—especially with China—as a pathway to long-term economic growth. He forecasts a potential $12 trillion injection into the economy through retirement account reforms, coupled with tax cuts or eliminations for middle-income earners. According to Briggs, Americans may start to see the benefits within 6–12 months and feel them fully in 12–18, as strategic trade deals and domestic investment take root.

In this episode, we'll dive into the complicated topic of "Short-Term Disability and Pregnancy: Understanding Your Rights and Benefits."Pregnancy and Short-Term Disability don't always go hand in hand - at least not the way they should. In today's episode, disability law expert Nancy L. Cavey sheds light on a critical issue affecting millions of working women: the challenges of securing Short-Term Disability benefits during pregnancy. While pregnancy is often a time of excitement and change, it can also involve serious medical complications, extended leave, or postpartum recovery that makes returning to work impossible. That's when Short-Term Disability insurance is meant to provide support - but the claims process is often anything but supportive. From unclear policy terms to denied claims and employer resistance, many women find themselves overwhelmed and underprotected at one of the most vulnerable times in their lives. Nancy breaks it all down - what pregnancy-related conditions qualify, how Short-Term Disability differs from long-term coverage, when to seek legal help, and how to fight back if your claim is denied. Whether you're pregnant now, planning to be, or helping someone through the process, this episode offers clear, actionable guidance for navigating the system and securing the benefits you deserve. Let's get started.In this episode, we'll cover the following topics:One - Understanding Short-Term Disability and PregnancyTwo - Filing and Protecting Your Pregnancy-Related Disability ClaimThree - Knowing Your Rights and Seeking SupportWhether you're a claimant, or simply seeking valuable insights into the disability claims landscape, this episode provides essential guidance to help you succeed in your journey.

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” - Proverbs 22:6As parents, we often wonder when to begin teaching our kids about money. The simple answer? It's never too early. In fact, a study by Purdue University found that most of our lifelong money habits are formed by the age of seven. That's a sobering realization—but also a hopeful one. Because with intentionality and biblical wisdom, we can help our children become faithful stewards from an early age.Here's how to begin—step by step.Ages 3–5: Needs, Wants, and WorshipEven toddlers can begin to understand the basics of money. Start by teaching the difference between needs and wants. A home, food, and clothing? Those are needs. But that cereal with a cartoon character? That's a want—and a perfect conversation starter.As you shop, ask your child to name which items fall into which category. Then take the opportunity to remind them: God provides all our needs and blesses us with more than we deserve.Begin using the three-jar method—one for spending, one for saving, and one for giving. When your child receives birthday money or a small allowance, help them divide it equally. Let them drop their “giving” portion into the offering plate each week. It's a simple but powerful way to connect generosity with worship.Ages 6–10: Responsibility and Short-Term GoalsAt this stage, kids are ready to take on more responsibility. Assign small chores tied to a modest allowance. If they complete the job, they earn the money. If not, the allowance waits. It's a simple lesson in accountability and work ethic.If they want something beyond their current funds, help them create a short-term savings plan. Use sticker charts or visual trackers to make progress fun and tangible.Give your child a few dollars and let them plan how to spend it on snacks for the week. This is a great way to teach a foundational principle from financial teacher Ron Blue:“You always have more choices than money.”Encourage your child to give regularly to causes they care about. Ask why they want to give—and help them understand how giving reflects God's heart.Ages 11–15: Bigger Goals, Delayed GratificationNow your child may be babysitting, mowing lawns, or doing small jobs for neighbors. It's the perfect time to talk about larger savings goals—maybe a new bike or a camp trip.Consider opening a custodial savings account or using a kid-friendly money app. Walk through monthly statements together and celebrate milestones. Let them make decisions (and occasional mistakes) while you're close by to guide them.If they want to buy something online, encourage them to wait a few days, compare options, and pray before making a purchase. The lesson is clear: patience often leads to better decisions.Ages 16–18: Real-World Practice and Investing BasicsTeenagers who are working part-time jobs are ready for more advanced money management.Help them set up a formal budget with real income and categories for saving, spending, and giving. This is also a good time to introduce matching incentives: If they save $500, you match it, just like an employer's 401(k) might.Let them research a company and buy a fractional share through a custodial brokerage account. If they have earned income, consider opening a Roth IRA to model long-term investing.Remind them: Markets go up and down, but faithful stewardship builds wealth over time.The Ultimate Goal: A Faithful StewardReinforce this truth: Their worth isn't tied to their net worth. All we have is a gift from God to be managed for His glory, not our own.No matter your child's age, the goal remains the same: to raise someone who knows how to earn, manage, give, and grow what God has entrusted to them. You don't have to be a financial expert—you just have to be present and intentional.Keep the conversation going. Keep pointing them to biblical truth. And remember—this isn't just a financial lesson. It's a spiritual one.For more resources on biblical money management and to start budgeting as a family, check out the FaithFi app.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 58, single, and plan to keep working until I'm 70. I live frugally and want to ensure that my assets are managed wisely and passed on to my four children, especially my youngest. I'm considering setting up a trust, but the $2,000 cost seems steep. Is that the best option for someone like me who wants to ensure everything is protected and appropriately distributed?I'm looking to understand how reverse mortgages work. What kind of interest rates do they typically charge? Do they accrue interest like a traditional mortgage over time? Are there any upfront fees to get started?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Movement MortgageWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.
