About half of my college students shouldn't even be in my classroom. I say that as a professor at an HBCU — not from a cheap seat, but from the front of the classroom.Here's the truth nobody wants to say out loud: a 4-year degree is NOT the right path for every single person. Some of y'all are walking out with $40,000 in student loan debt for a path that was never built for who you are.In today's episode, I'm breaking down 5 skills that pay $5,000+ a week, cost less than ONE semester at a state school, and can be learned in 90 days or less. These jobs are bulletproof — they can't be done remotely, can't be offshored, and AI can't replace them.Whether you're 17 trying to figure out your next move, 35 stuck at a job that doesn't pay enough, or 50 wondering if it's too late — this episode is for you.If you're a parent watching this, please listen carefully. If your child is gifted with their hands, don't push them into a 4-year university just because that's what your generation valued. That's not love. That's pressure.This is about freedom. This is about wealth. This is about peace.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS:0:00 - Intro: Half My Students Shouldn't Be Here3:00 - Why College Isn't For Everyone6:00 - Skill #1: AI Implementation ($110K-$200K)10:00 - Skill #2: Specialized Technical Trades ($85K-$160K)14:00 - Skill #3: Cybersecurity ($99K-$200K)18:00 - Skill #4: Data Literacy & Visualization ($88K-$132K)21:00 - Skill #5: Sales & Revenue Operations ($154K-$250K)24:00 - The 90-Day Strategy To Start

Sonja Lyubomirsky is a psychologist, professor, and author. What does it really mean to feel loved? People say "I love you" all the time, but why doesn't it always register?

Today is part 2 of listener questions and we spend a lot of time talking about the monumental nature of doing an Ironman. Is it absurd, simply a conquest, or a means to an end? There are tons of little training nuggets weaved inside of this cast, including, how to build an effective swim training package, is it worth the time and effort to be your absolute best in this sport? Triathlon vs. other priorities, and Taper combined with race week stress. We definitely hit on many interesting topics including weak feet and Lionel Sanders syndrome. Topics: Weak feet . . . make weak men . . . make weak times? Lionel Sanders syndrome Skill, speed, strength as a combo Swim technique sessions Giving up the watch in the pool Training to train or get better? Training for what's on top of your chin When does the absurdity of Ironman go away? Why people come back to this sport over and over Thoughts on leaving performance on the table What's your best potential at your age? What is your real goal Two priorities at a time Taper week decisions Race week stress Relieving stress or getting more tired? It's easy to forget how many Ironman questions there really are.

You can have the perfect planner, the right system, and the best intentions, and still not follow through. It isn't a caring problem. After enough broken promises to yourself, some quiet part of you simply stops believing the plan. That's where this conversation with Dr. Tamara Rosier begins, and it reframes self-trust as something closer to a nervous system skill than a mindset you can think your way into.Dr. Tamara Rosier has written the books and built the center and stood on the stages, and she still wakes some mornings and reminds herself, deliberately, that she is a trustworthy person. The belief underneath — the one she's carried since she was small — is that she's a person who screws things up. ADHD feeds a belief like that. It chips away at your sense of who you are, one forgotten thing at a time, until distrusting yourself stops feeling like a wound and starts feeling like good judgment.So much of that, it turns out, is happening in the body. An ADHD nervous system can spend its whole life braced — fight, flight, freeze, appease — switched on and calling it normal because it has never known the alternative. For years Tamara sat frozen on the couch, melting into the cushions, sure she was resting, when she was really stuck somewhere below the place where rest actually lives. There's a narrow band where you're calm and awake at once, and a lot of us have never spent much time there. Hearing her describe it, you may quietly start to wonder whether you ever have.The way back looks like catching yourself mid-loop — Tamara tells it through the week she lost one of her chickens, and the refrain that trailed her around the house, I failed her, I failed her, I failed her — and then learning to talk back to it, to move your body, to put on the Motown, to do the next small thing that nudges you up out of the freeze. It looks like noticing the clever ways we avoid all of that, too: the new app, the next fix, the dopamine that keeps us busy on the surface so we never have to turn toward the thing underneath.And the hope here is almost disappointingly ordinary. No system is going to fix you by Thursday. What there is, instead, is the small correction, made again and again, the way a sailor nudges the tiller rather than wrenching the whole boat around and tipping it over. There's learning to read your own weather, hour by hour. There's accepting that you may always need the timer, the Post-it, the reminder, and letting that be fine rather than shameful. Self-trust grows in that soil — in the quiet, stubborn belief that whatever goes sideways today, you'll know how to repair it.Links & NotesDr. Tamara Rosier — our guest's author site, where you can find her work and stay connected.ADHD Center of West Michigan — the coaching and support practice Tamara founded in Grand Rapids.Your Brain's Not Broken — Tamara's book on navigating your emotions and life with ADHD. A new edition for teens and young adults is on the way.You, Me & Our ADHD Family — her book on cultivating healthy relationships when ADHD is in the house.ADHD Coaches Organization (ACO) — the professional body for ADHD coaches; their directory is a solid place to start if you're looking for one.HeartMath — the heart-rhythm coherence and breathing tool Tamara leans on to drop into a calmer, parasympathetic state.Vagal nerve resets — Tamara's advice is to find the one that fits you; she points listeners to the many free walk-throughs on YouTube rather than any single "right" technique.

In this episode of In Depth, Brett sits down with Paul Copplestone, co-founder and CEO of Supabase, the open-source Postgres platform now serving more than seven million developers. Before Supabase, Paul launched a Thumbtack-style marketplace in Southeast Asia and co-founded an office-management startup called Nimbus, experiences that taught him to separate fundraising from building and to find product-market fit before blitzscaling. He breaks down how a single tagline change for Supabase unlocked product-market fit, why he runs a fully distributed async team with near-zero attrition, and how he turned PLG signals into a product-led sales motion comped only on incremental uplift. In today's episode, we discuss: How changing one tagline helped Supabase go to #1 in Hacker News - an early sign of product market fit Why Paul ran Supabase like it had only $100K in the bank despite raising real money How Supabase rode three distinct AI waves, from pgvector to Bolt and Lovable, to Claude Code Why Supabase built a sales team comped only on the incremental uplift over a control group What the Toyota production system's "kaizen" taught Paul about unblocking a scaling team References: Ant Wilson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ant-wilson-46179937 Bolt: https://bolt.new/ Claude Code: https://www.anthropic.com/claude-code Codex: https://openai.com/codex/ Entrepreneurs First: https://www.joinef.com/ Firebase: https://firebase.google.com/ Lovable: https://lovable.dev/ MongoDB: https://www.mongodb.com/ Next.js: https://nextjs.org/ PostgreSQL: https://www.postgresql.org/ Supabase: https://supabase.com/ Thumbtack: https://www.thumbtack.com/ Y Combinator: https://www.ycombinator.com/ Where to find Paul: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulcopplestone Twitter/X: https://x.com/kiwicopple Where to find Brett: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brett-berson-9986094/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/brettberson Where to find First Round Capital: Website: https://firstround.com/ First Round Review: https://review.firstround.com/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/firstround YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FirstRoundCapital This podcast on all platforms: https://review.firstround.com/podcast Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction 01:32 Why Paul's earlier startups were never destined to be huge 07:14 Unlearning the "tall poppy" mindset and going all-in on async 09:54 Reverse-engineering why Supabase was an outstanding idea 12:04 The accidental Hacker News launch and tagline lesson 13:58 Where the early roadmap came from: demand vs. technical taste 17:28 Skill vs. luck, and operating like you have $100K in the bank 21:42 What actually makes a great developer experience 23:10 Solving the "graduation problem" Firebase never could 24:58 The role of open source in Supabase's success 26:10 The three distinct AI tailwinds: From pgvector to Claude Code 35:24 Supabase's egoless, hyper-competitive open-source culture 42:58 A tactical playbook for raising capital 48:37 Product-led sales comped on incremental uplift only 59:27 The production philosophy behind Supabase's operations

In this episode, I'm breaking down what I think is the most important CEO skill in the age of AI, and it's not what you think. I move insanely fast and I'll defend that as one of my greatest strengths, but I'm watching everyone use AI to take the shortest path possible, and there's a hidden cost most people won't see until it's too late. The more I use AI, the more I'm convinced of one thing about it that's going to change how you create. If you've felt the pull to move faster or lean on AI more, this one's a reminder to pause and protect what actually sets you apart.

Most hard conversations don't start with an invitation. They start with something that sounds more like a verdict: You never listen to me. You don't respect my time. You don't care about my feelings. By the time we say those things, we've already decided what happened, what it means, and who's responsible. But those assumptions rarely resolve conflict. In this episode, I walk you through a shift that can completely change the quality of difficult conversations: moving from certainty to curiosity. When you learn to ask questions rather than make statements, you create more opportunities for connection. Here's what I cover:Why certainty feels so convincing and the psychological biases that make us believe our interpretation is the truthHow to make observations without turning them into stories about someone else's intentionsA three-step formula for approaching difficult conversations without certainty: observation, impact, and curiosityWhy curiosity can be hard to access when your nervous system is activated and certainty feels saferPractical questions you can use to create more understanding and meaningful resolution in your relationshipsReserve your seat for my next workshop: sarafisk.coach/sayitwithclarity Find Sara here:sarafisk.coachpages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationsinstagram.com/sarafiskcoachfacebook.com/SaraFiskCoachingtiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachyoutube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333

What if your case acceptance problem is really a listening problem? On Day 18 of The Flow Protocol series, Dr. Dave explores deep listening as a performance and profit trigger hiding inside everyday conversations. In this episode, you'll learn:  Why “I'll think about it” often means fear, confusion, money stress, or lack of trust  How deep listening helps your team protect timing, clarity, and case acceptance  Where practices lose money when one person hears a concern the next person never uses Listen now to find the listening gap that may be costing your practice production and calmer days.

Is mental toughness really about being unbreakable, or is true strength found in yielding?In this episode of the Mark Divine Show, retired Navy SEAL Commander Mark Divine explores the critical Sheepdog skill of Flexibility.Discover why the rigid "oak tree" mindset is ultimately fragile when chaos hits, while the flexible "reed" can bend, survive the storm, and bounce back. Learn the crucial differences between physical, mental, and emotional flexibility, and how an unbreakable ethos actually gives you the freedom to bend your tactics. Finally, challenge yourself with this week's missions to build your range: committing to a daily mobility practice and deliberately altering your familiar routines to interrupt rigid habits.Special thanks to Will Potter for providing the incredible track "Easy Day" featured in this episode!

Networking gets a bad reputation. And honestly? It's earned it.For most people, the word conjures images of awkward small talk, business cards nobody keeps, and conversations that feel more like auditions than actual human connection. It feels transactional. It feels fake. And for a lot of women, especially, it feels like a game they were never taught how to play.But what if the problem isn't networking itself — it's the way we've been taught to think about it?On the 2B Bolder Podcast, host Mary Killelea sits down with Monique Kelley — professor, consultant, and author of Redefining Networking: How to Lead with Your Unique Value, an Amazon #1 Bestseller in Business Ethics — to completely reframe what networking is, what it isn't, and why getting it right might be the single most important career move you make.Monique is a two-time PRNEWS Top Women in PR award recipient, a founding member of CHIEF, and has been featured in FOX and Fast Company. She's built a career working with some of the biggest names in biopharma — Pfizer, Roche, Lilly, Johnson & Johnson — not by chasing opportunities, but by building meaningful relationships that opened doors long after the conversation ended. Today she teaches the only Career Readiness course at Boston University's College of Communication, shaping how the next generation of professionals show up, connect, and lead.This conversation covers it all — her career journey from a pre-med detour into communications and healthcare PR, the moment she stepped in to present to a major client when her boss was out and realized that relationships matter just as much as the deck, and the pivots that took her from agency life to in-house roles to fractional consulting and eventually the classroom.Mary and Monique dig into the real stuff:What most people fundamentally get wrong about networking — and why that misunderstanding is costing them real opportunitiesWhat "leading with your value" actually means in practice, not just as a concept but as a daily behaviorA clear, three-step framework for defining your unique value, choosing the right audience, and showing up consistently — on LinkedIn and beyondWhy your network isn't a list of contacts. It's a living system of people who understand what you bring and actively want to advocate for youHow to build a network from scratch when you feel like you have nothing to offer and nowhere to startWhy remote work and meeting overload are making organic connection harder than ever — and what to do about itThe truth about "I don't have time to network" (spoiler: it's a prioritization issue, not a time issue)What Monique is seeing right now across executives, students, and mid-career professionals — and the specific behaviors she notices in women who are actually building momentumWhat she teaches her Career Readiness students at BU that experienced professionals desperately need to hearAnd the one thing she wishes she had understood earlier about building a career that lastsWhether you're in the middle of a career transition, feeling stuck in a role that no longer fits, or just dreading the next industry event — this episode will completely shift how you think about connection, value, and what it actually means to build a career on your own terms.

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan break down the latest short report targeting Gildan Activewear and the major allegations around channel stuffing, receivables factoring, and whether the company’s recent growth may be less durable than it appears. They also look back at some of the most notable short reports in Canadian market history, including Shopify, Dollarama, Canadian Tire, Home Capital Group, Exchange Income Corp, FaceDrive, goeasy, and others. Some short sellers were completely wrong, some were early, and a few ended up being surprisingly accurate. To wrap things up, Simon shares a stock on his radar: Intuitive Surgical. He explains why the company’s robotic surgery platform, recurring revenue model, large installed base, and potential AI advantage make it an interesting name to watch after a pullback.

There are so many external demands on our time and attention - anxiety inducing demands. Demands that answer questions like: What should I care about? What should I strive for? What is success? In this podcast of Breaking Bread, Katie Miller and Kathy Knochel help us see that the demands after all might not be from an external voice but rather our own internal one. Fortunately, there are practical ways to ground ourselves in such a way that this voice is grounded in truth and goodness.  Show notes:  Grounding is the anchoring of ourselves in truth and reality. Grounding allows us to evaluate the demands we feel. It affords us the space to ask helpful questions.  What is true?  What does God say?  What is realistic?  What are my values?  Having a strong since of reality is increasingly challenging in a world of curated fantasy.   Our perception of reality and internalization of demands is a shaping we undergo over time through repeated experiences. This shaping can be towards truth or away.  One way we can step into a healthy shaping is to practice spiritual disciplines.   Bible reading  Prayer  Silence  Confession  Accountable relationships  

Why "Nice" Isn't a Compliment at Work   Juan argues that being described as "nice" is rarely a real compliment in the workplace and often signals a lack of meaningful contribution, unlike respect earned through skill or expertise. Using an example from teaching gymnastics at The Little Gym, he explains that vague praise like "good job" provides no useful feedback, similar to calling someone "nice" without specifics. Juan contrasts being merely polite with being kind and assert that aiming to be nice can become an insecurity-driven restraint that prevents honest opinions and skill-building. He observes that difficult coworkers may still be respected for competence, while "nice" can mask low value. Lastly, Juan reflects on regretting times they stayed "nice" instead of calling out racism or sexism, concluding with a call to action to stop prioritizing niceness over values and honesty.   00:00 Is Nice a Compliment 00:40 Nice at Work Means Nothing 01:41 The Empty Praise Problem 02:40 Specific Feedback Wins 03:39 What Kids Really Remember 04:53 Nice Versus Kind 05:41 Respect Beats Niceness 07:17 When Niceness Creates Regret 07:50 Calling Out Bias 08:46 Stop Being Nice  

In this episode, Lauren Kordzik sits down with Cameron-Brooks alum George Pesansky to discuss what his 30 years of hiring and building teams taught him about JMOs, and why the best companies keep coming back to hire these great leaders. George Pesansky came through Cameron-Brooks in 1996 as an Army officer. He didn’t know exactly what was next. He just knew he was ready for something new. Thirty years later, he’s built a company, hired JMOs, and coached leaders inside some of the most complex manufacturing operations in the world. He wrote a book about it. And he still comes back to the same idea when someone asks what separates good leaders from great ones. We Before Me We before me. It sounds simple. But George will tell you, it’s actually rare. Most organizations, at some point, start optimizing for individuals. Career paths, visibility, personal outcomes. It’s subtle. But over time, it shapes how decisions get made and how teams show up. JMOs come from a different culture entirely. The mission is the priority. The team is what matters. Candor isn’t a personality trait; it’s expected. That doesn’t disappear when someone transitions out of the military. It comes with them. George also pushes back on one of the most common reasons companies hesitate to hire JMOs: they don’t have industry experience. His take? There’s a difference between knowledge and skill. Knowledge (a product, a process, a system) can be learned in weeks. Skill (real leadership, the ability to drive results through people, the discipline to do the hard thing) takes years to build. JMOs already have it. Hiring managers sometimes get those two things mixed up. When you get that hiring decision right, the return isn’t just one good hire. It’s a stronger team. Fewer people walking out the door. A culture people want to stay in. George saw it firsthand. And he’s watched it play out over and over again in the organizations he’s worked with since. Work with Cameron-Brooks If you’re looking to hire a JMO for your team, we would love to connect. Feel free to contact us to learn more about attending a Cameron-Brooks Hiring Conference. Or feel free to email Lauren Kordzik at lkordzik@cameron-brooks.com. For any JMOs thinking the transition? We’re here to help.

There was a time when skills lasted decades. You learned your craft, gained experience, and slowly climbed the ladder.But that world is gone.Today:Technology changes faster than job descriptionsAI reshapes roles before annual reviews even happenSkills expire in just a few yearsSo leadership is no longer about what people know.It's about how fast they can learn what's next.

The person you turn to on your worst day isn't the funniest or the smartest. They're the one who makes you feel understood. That skill has a name: super communicator. And according to research, it's not a personality trait. It's a set of learnable habits. The same way anyone can learn to read. Charles Duhigg is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret Language of Connection. He spent years studying what separates the people we love talking to from everyone else, and what he found will change how you walk into every conversation. Every discussion is actually three conversations layered on top of each other: a practical one, an emotional one, and a social one. When you're having a different one than the person across from you, connection breaks down before it even starts. Super communicators know how to identify which conversation is happening and match it. They also ask 10 to 20 times more questions than the average person. Not to interrogate, but to signal: I'm here. I'm listening. You matter.

Welcome back to the Mindful Hunter Podcast! In this episode, Jay is in the basement with returning guest Bo Campbell, fresh off his first-ever bear hunt in British Columbia with Mindful Hunter Outfitting. They debrief the trip, talk through the realities of a 49-day guiding season, and make a big announcement: the launch of Mindful Hunter Outfitting South — guided Coues deer hunts in Mexico. Jay gets radically honest about the 2026 spring bear season. While the season was a massive success overall (11 bears across 18 clients), he breaks down the frustrating reality of a 55% lethality rate on shot opportunities — and explains why he's implementing mandatory pre-hunt shooting drills and what he expects from clients moving forward. They also get into the fascinating "heart shot phenomenon" where perfectly shot bears take off on a mindless, adrenaline-fueled dead sprint. In the second half, Jay and Bo officially announce their new guided Mexico Coues deer hunts. Jay explains exactly why the DIY Mexico hunting model is flawed, why it often costs just as much as a guided hunt for a subpar experience, and how they've secured three premier ranches for the 2027 season. If you want to hunt the rut in January/February with incredible food, dialed logistics, and giant deer — this is the hunt for you.

Former President Barack Obama has made permanent residence in Donald Trump's head for most of Trump's political life, and now, in the shadow of his failed war on Iran, the contrast between Trump's shortcomings and Obama's accomplishments only add to Trump's burden. Jen Psaki traces the roots of Trump's insecurity about Obama, and talks with House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi. Senator Jon Ossoff lays into his new Republican opponent, Trumpy Rep. Mike Collins, and responds to Donald Trump's petty name calling with withering criticism of Trump's performance in office. Jen Psaki shares a clip of MS NOW's Michelle Norris' exclusive interview with former President Barack Obama in conjunction with the opening of his presidential library. The full interview will air as part of a two hour special on Friday, June 19 at 9pm ET on MS NOW.

Performance is not just about strength, power, conditioning, or sport-specific skill.In this episode of the Movement Podcast, Gray Cook and Lee Burton revisit one of the foundational ideas behind Functional Movement Systems: the performance pyramid.At the base is movement.Above that is performance.At the top is skill.The conversation explores why performance cannot be understood by looking at one test, one lift, one movement, or one sport-specific task in isolation. Before asking how to improve power, speed, conditioning, or workload, we need to understand whether the body has the fundamental movement and capacity to support it.Gray and Lee discuss the difference between movement screening and performance testing, why the overhead deep squat alone is not enough, and how capacity tests like motor control, carries, jumps, and impact control can help identify hidden energy leaks.They also break down why athletes, workers, and active adults often chase the obvious goal — more power, more endurance, more strength — when the real opportunity may be found in movement quality, postural control, asymmetry, or foundational capacity.This episode is a practical look at how to stop guessing, test more systematically, and make better recommendations for the person in front of you.Learn more about Functional Movement Systems:https://www.functionalmovement.com/Functional Movement SystemsYouTubeFacebookInstagramX (Twitter)Subscribe to the FMS Newsletter

Are you taking business advice from people who don't actually know you, your goals, or where you're trying to go? In this episode of Business Your Way, Caryn breaks down one of the most important — and overlooked — jobs you have as a business owner: protecting your business your way.Caryn covers why well-meaning advice from even successful entrepreneurs can send you in the completely wrong direction, how to recognize when you're consuming 7-figure advice that doesn't apply to your 5- or 6-figure business, and why discernment is the skill that separates coaches who stay stuck from those who build sustainable, profitable businesses.You'll also hear why always knowing what you're selling is one of the most protective things you can do for your business, and how to use your values and financial goals as filters to cut through 90% of the noise online.If you're a life coach or small business owner tired of buying random courses, second-guessing your strategy, or feeling pulled in every direction, this episode is your reminder to return to yourself and protect your mission.Topics covered:Why not all advice is created equal — even from people who've "made it"The danger of learning ahead of where you are in businessTreating your business like a newborn (and what that means practically)Always selling: why cash is the ultimate business protectorHow to develop discernment so you stop buying things you don't needUsing your values to filter out tactics that won't work FOR YOU

The real entry ticket was willingness: to learn, to listen, to hold a wheel without panic, to respect the rhythm of the group. Somewhere along the way, the gate shifted. Skill started getting confused with image. Kit became a costume. Beginners began feeling like they had to buy belonging before they'd earned confidence on the road. But the magic of cycling has always lived somewhere else: in trust, timing, craft, and the quiet romance of a bunch rolling out together.

Why do men shut down — and what does it silently cost them in love, connection, and life? In this episode, I sit down with therapist Eli Weinstein to unpack the emotional avoidance pattern that's quietly destroying relationships — especially after kids arrive. We go deep on why men are conditioned to bottle emotions instead of expressing them, how resentment in marriage builds in silence, and the specific moment most couples disconnect without even realising it. Eli shares the brutal truth about the "honesty paradox" — why women ask for emotional openness in men, then punish them when they get it. We also dig into why therapy for men can sometimes make things worse when it's used as a shield instead of a tool for real change. If you're feeling distant from your partner, stuck in cycles of conflict, or you've noticed that having kids changed something you can't name — this conversation is for you. Eli Weinstein, LCSW, is the therapist bringing heart and humor back to mental health. A loving husband and proudly goofy dad of two, Eli is based in Las Vegas and runs a thriving practice serving clients across New York, Nevada, and beyond through his global coaching work. Known for his straight-talking, relatable style, he's the creator of ELIvation and host of The Dude Therapist podcast, where he dives into the messy, beautiful mix of relationships, parenting, and emotional growth. An international speaker and sought-after guest, Eli has been featured on over 250 podcasts and major media outlets including The Kelly Clarkson Show, Psychology Today, and leading relationship and parenting platforms. His debut book, From I Do to We Do: Navigating Marriage Through Parenting Years (Wiley, 2026), helps couples stay connected when life gets loud. Eli's mission is simple: make therapy-level wisdom feel human, hopeful, and real.   Key Topics: ⭐ Why Couples Fight ⭐ The Art Of Repair ⭐ Emotional Safety ⭐ Modern Masculinity ⭐ Unmet Relationship Needs ⭐ Taking Feedback Well ⭐ Deep Listening Skills ⭐ The Power Of Vulnerability ⭐ Being Fully Present ⭐ Rebuilding Connection   Connect With David - The Authentic Man: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theauthenticman_/  Website: https://www.theauthenticman.net/  For Coaching: hello@theauthenticman.net  Newsletter: https://www.theauthenticman.net/home-subscribe    Connect With Eli Weinstein :  Eli Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eliweinstein_lcsw/ Eli Website:https://www.eliweinsteinlcsw.com/ Podcast: https://linktr.ee/dudetherapist   emotional avoidance men ,  resentment in marriage ,  avoidant attachment men ,  resentment in relationships ,  avoidant attachment style ,  relationship communication ,  emotional unavailability men , the authentic man podcast  therapy for men , marriage advice, avoidant attachment, men and emotions, men emotional shutdown, male emotional avoidance, marriage conflict resolution, intimacy after baby, men mental health, emotional distance in marriage emotional suppression men, men shutting down in relationships, why men don't talk, men bottling emotions, healthy masculinity relationships, relationship coach for men, men's podcast relationships, men vulnerability, men in their 40s relationships, authentic masculinity, 30s men, 40s men   RELATE:   

Fundraising and alumni relations are evolving faster than many institutions are prepared for. But the concept of hiring people who make us feel comfortable remains the biggest threat to innovation since these practices often remain rooted in familiarity, rigidity, and outdated ideas of “fit.”  A.P. Porch is a higher education and philanthropy professional with nearly 15 years of experience in nonprofit and advancement spaces, currently serving as the University-Wide Director of Alumni Engagement at Loyola University, New Orleans. Her work centers on strengthening alumni and donor relationships while supporting the “life of the mind” through mission-driven engagement, leadership, and community building. She joined Mallory to talk about what it takes to build stronger, more sustainable advancement teams in the fundraising sector.  In this episode, you will be able to: Recognize the hidden challenges behind skill-based hiring in fundraising and alumni relations. Have a clear understanding about the difference between hiring for competency versus hiring for familiarity. Learn why burnout and turnover are often symptoms of deeper organizational issues. Discover how curiosity, adaptability, and emotional intelligence can strengthen donor relationships. Learn how “culture fit” can unintentionally limit innovation and diversity of thought.

Most people over 40 make their career change much harder than it needs to be. They believe it has to be a matter of all or nothing. That they only get one chance (so they'd better get it right, or they'll fail in public!). Or they're (still) waiting to "feel ready" to take any action whatsoever. As a result, they are exhausted before they even start. In a world of work that keeps changing, I recommend thinking about career change in a much more empowering way: It's the #1 future-proofing skill you can develop as a professional over 40. Hit play to learn how that works now. 

Most AI conversations focus on the technology. This one focuses on the people building it. In this episode of Dealer Talk with Jen Suzuki, I sit down with Tasso Roumeliotis, Founder & CEO of NUMA AI, for a candid conversation about leadership, change, AI adoption, customer experience and what dealership operators need to understand as artificial intelligence becomes part of daily operations. What fascinated me most wasn't the product. It was learning how an outsider to automotive earned trust inside one of the most operationally complex industries in the world and what dealership leaders can learn from that journey. We discuss: • Why most AI failures are actually adoption failures • The resistance employees feel when AI enters the workplace • How leaders should communicate AI change to their teams • Why understanding the people behind AI matters as much as understanding the technology • The future role of dealership leadership in an AI-driven world • How AI can improve visibility into customer experience and operational performance • Why empathy may become the most valuable human skill in automotive retail • What operators should be thinking about now to prepare for the next few years Whether you're a dealer principal, general manager, fixed ops leader, sales leader, service manager, BDC director, or simply curious about where automotive retail is headed, this episode offers practical insight into the leadership side of AI transformation. Because the future won't be determined by who buys the most AI. It will be determined by who leads people through change the best.

We spend so much time learning how to work, achieve, optimize, and produce that many of us have forgotten how to simply enjoy being alive. In this thought-provoking conversation, Luke Burgis explains why leisure isn't a reward for getting everything done. It's a skill that has to be practiced. Together we explore the tension between belonging and individuality, why technology makes it harder to know what we truly want, the disappearance of rites of passage, and what it takes to raise kids who can think for themselves in a world full of noise and influence. More than anything, this episode is an invitation to resist being swept along by the crowd and to become the kind of person who knows why they believe what they believe.

In this episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros break down how self-belief shapes identity, learning, and long-term success. Kevin reflects on an old dream that once felt impossible and reveals the deeper lesson: most limits are accepted internally before reality ever tests them.They discuss fantasy, visualization, rumination, action, insecurity, and the role of better questions in real growth. Belief matters, but only when it turns into skill, consistency, and self-awareness. Belief opens the door.

The quality of our attention shapes every interaction we have, yet listening is often the first skill sacrificed when pressure, technology, and time constraints take over. Most clinicians spend years learning what to say, while spending little time learning how to effectively listen. In a healthcare system dominated by tasks, metrics, and efficiency, the ability to slow down and create genuine presence may be one of the most valuable skills we can cultivate.In this episode, we explore why listening is both a mindset and a practical skill, how to listen more effectively, how small pauses can transform patient care, and why mindfulness extends far beyond meditation. Finally, we examine simple practices that help clinicians stay present, focused, and connected even during the busiest days.

AI investing is often focused on the obvious names: Nvidia, Microsoft, Google, Meta, and the rest of the hyperscalers. But the AI buildout is creating massive demand across the entire infrastructure stack, from electricity and grid upgrades to cooling, data centers, semiconductors, uranium, industrial automation, and specialized software. In this episode, we unveil the TCI Podcast Index: Hidden AI Winners, built in partnership with Questrade’s new custom indexing feature. We explain how custom indexing works, why we chose this AI infrastructure theme, and then break down the 21 companies selected for the index. This episode also looks at why AI demand may benefit companies far beyond the usual tech giants, especially businesses tied to power generation, electrical equipment, liquid cooling, semiconductor manufacturing, data center construction, and nuclear energy.

Episode 4048: Benjamin Hardy explores how repeated practice and intentional overtraining can turn a learned behavior into an automatic part of your identity. Drawing on psychology and expert performance, he explains how increasing difficulty, pressure, and distraction can help you move beyond simple competence toward creativity, flexibility, and lasting personal growth. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://betterhumans.pub/the-science-of-automating-and-perfecting-any-skill-ea89f55b5f3e Quotes to ponder: "Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist." "Achieving “automaticity” is about making a newly learned skill a part of who you are, as opposed to just a thing you can do." "Overtraining is about continuously practicing something you've already learned inside and out. Once you've over-learned a skill, you no longer need a script but can perform or even teach that skill in different ways and in different contexts."

I sat down with my wife Stef, Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson East, and former NFL player Andrew East to dig into their new book, The Courage to Commit.We talk about why this generation is running from commitment, how defining your family values creates real peace, the collateral damage that comes from being committed to the wrong things, what Shawn and Andrew learned about commitment after their elite athletic careers ended, and why the deepest joys come after, not before, you plant your flag and go all in.ORDER SHAWN & ANDREW'S BOOK HERE:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FRR3HBJ5?tag=randohouseinc7986-20FOLLOW THEIR PODCAST:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfo5aZL8pvt8j6UYYkkyz5AORDER MY BOOK HERE: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/Go-One-More-Intentional-Life-Changing/dp/1637746210FOLLOW BPN:Become a BPN member FOR FREE - Unlock 25% off FOR LIFE ⁠https://www.bareperformancenutrition.com/collections/performance-nutritionIG: ⁠instagram.com/nickbarefitness/⁠YT: ⁠youtube.com/@nickbarefitnessThis podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal [health or profession] advice.
