My Guest: Derek Sivers is the founder of CD Baby and author of "Hell Yeah or No" and "Useful Not True." He shared how he graduated from Cal Berkeley in two years instead of four because the "standard pace for chumps" - a lesson that shaped his entire career of institutional skepticism and unconventional thinking. From creating viral shipping emails to understanding why explorers make bad leaders, Derek shares why being busy means being out of control, how your first thought is an obstacle to your best work, and why you can't predict what the world will want from you until you try everything and listen closely to what it's telling you. Notes: No Speed Limit – Most things are paced so the slowest person can keep up. If you're driven and motivated, you can go so much faster than the standard pace. I graduated from Berkeley in two years by learning four semesters of harmony in one hour. "The standard pace is for chumps. You can do so much better than that." Question the Standard Process – When someone says you must go through usual channels or something will take a certain time, assume there's probably a hack. Develop institutional skepticism - there's usually a better way than how most people do it. Create Opportunities, Don't Wait for Them – You don't have to wait until a company is hiring. If you can see how to benefit them, walk in and show them what you can do for free first. Alan Tepper made Warner Brothers more money than anyone that year by just showing up with a plan. Make Everything Valuable to Others – The starving artist spends all their time on work valuable to them but not to others. Use money as a neutral measure - if you can make money with your art, it ensures what you're doing is valuable to other people. "It's almost impossible to predict what the world will want from you... Keep yourself out there and listen closely to what the world is telling you it wants from you." Stand Out by Being Different – Don't imitate what everyone else is doing. I wrote a silly shipping email in 10 minutes that became one of the most viral emails ever mentioned in business books. Ask yourself constantly: What has nobody done before? The First Follower Creates the Movement – We focus on the shirtless dancing guy, but the first follower is what made everything happen. Until then, people kept their distance from the freak. If you find someone doing something great, follow them and show others how to follow. Every Sentence Must Matter – My books are 90-100 pages, but start as 1,000-page rough drafts. I spend 1-2 years full-time chopping every sentence that doesn't absolutely need to be there. "I'm not gonna put a single sentence out into the world that doesn't need to be there." Make every word count - eliminate everything that doesn't add value. Hell Yeah or No is Context-Dependent – This tool is for when you're overwhelmed with options and need to raise the bar. Straight out of college, say yes to everything because opportunities are like lottery tickets. Once something rewards you, then say no to other things and double down. Busy Means Out of Control – "Busy to me implies out of control. You're busy if you've let other people shove shit into your schedule." Leave space instead of filling it - that time to think is what creates valuable insights others don't have time to develop. Your First Thought is an Obstacle – Don't honor the thought that came first. In brainstorming, acknowledge the first idea, then keep going - don't stop at two or three. Even silly ideas can seed great ones you'd never reach without that stepping stone. All Beliefs Are a Myth – People worshiped Zeus for centuries; now we call it mythology. But we say our own beliefs are true while others' are superstitions. I expected China to be awful from American news, but found it wonderful - question what you've been told. Use Prejudice as Your Compass – If you notice you're prejudiced against something, that's exactly what you should explore. Burning Man sounds awful to me; therefore, I should probably go. Steer into your biases to overcome them and gain new perspectives. Explorers Make Terrible Leaders – Explorers try everything and change direction constantly, which frustrates teams. Leaders go in a straight line to a clear destination, unwavering in mission even if the path changes. I loved changing my mind, which made me a bad leader until I learned the difference. Set projects with clear missions, even if you're personally exploring other things. Try Everything Until the World Says Yes – I had a booking agency, a record label, a recording studio, and my own music - all failures. Then, a side project to help friends (CD Baby) took off. You can't predict what the world wants from you, so try many things and listen closely to what it's telling you. Reflection  What "standard pace" are you accepting in your business or career that you could actually accelerate if you questioned it? Where have you assumed something has to take a certain amount of time just because that's how it's always been done? Are you spending time on work that's valuable to you but not to others? How could you test whether what you're creating actually solves problems people are willing to pay for? Are you acting more like an explorer or a leader right now? If you're constantly changing direction, how could you set clearer missions for your projects while keeping your personal explorations separate?

Wir starten mit einem kurzen Warm-up und dem Setup der Folge: Alex und Max kuratieren gedanklich eine kleine Nischen-Parfümerie – jede*r hat nur drei Markenplätze im Regal. Welche Häuser bringen Reichweite, Charakter und eine gute Einstiegstiefe mit? Welche Flakons stehen für solides Handwerk, faire Preise oder besondere Erlebnisse am Counter? Düfte des Tages Alex trägt Valentino Uomo Intense (2016) – cremig-lederig, viel Iris und spürbare Power, ein klassischer Crowd-Pleaser für kühle Tage. Max entscheidet sich für Prada L'Homme – seifig, sauber, elegant und absolut bürotauglich. Beides zeitlose Safebets mit klarer Signatur. Kurztest/News: Rasasi Hawas Kobra Im Schnellcheck landet Havas Cobra in der „zitrisch-ambroxanlastig & laut“-Ecke. Vergleichbar mit der bekannten „Tiger/Hedonist“-Schiene, allerdings weniger elegant und deutlich jünger im Auftreten. Ergebnis: Spaßig und auffällig, aber eher für unkomplizierte, energiegeladene Settings. Archiv-Segment: drei anonyme Vintage/Old-School-Proben Wir schnuppern uns blind durch drei alte Schule-Samples. Eindrücke reichen von würzig-blumig mit Patchouli/Lavendel/Eichenmoos bis hin zu „heftig old-school“. Überraschung: #1 wird im Drydown irislastig und richtig tragbar; #2 und #3 bleiben markant, aber deutlich spezieller für Liebhaber*innen klassischer Maskulinität. Sample-Review: Tauer – L'Air du Désert Marocain Noir Der Noir-Ableger zitiert das trockene, würzige Wüsten-Feeling der L'Air/Au cœur-DNA, legt aber eine harzig-hölzerne Zusatzschicht oben drauf. Ergebnis: eigenständig genug für Fans, die „mehr Tiefe“ wollen, ohne die charakteristische Tauer-Signatur zu verlieren. Hauptthema: Unsere Marken für die „eigene Parfümerie“ (Top-3 je Person) Max: Maison Rebatchi. Kompakte Range, hohes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, geschmackvolle Präsentation. Rebatchi liefert moderne, fein ausbalancierte Kompositionen, die Einsteigerinnen abholen und Kennerinnen nicht langweilen – ideal, um ein kleines Regal sofort „rund“ wirken zu lassen. Alex: Born to Stand Out. Visuell wie olfaktorisch extrovertiert, mit breiter Bandbreite von süß/gourmandig bis dark-charaktervoll. Bringt Gesprächsstoff, einen klaren Wiedererkennungswert und zieht neugierige Nasen an – ein Frequenzbringer mit Profil. Alex (Finale): Masque Milano. Komplexe, zeitlose Düfte, hohe Qualitätsanmutung – und: 30-ml-Optionen als zugänglicher Einstieg. Masque liefert Storytelling, Handwerk und Vielfalt in einem – perfekt, um Stammkundschaft aufzubauen. Handels-Anekdote Zwischendurch geht's um gute Counter-Erlebnisse (Stichwort Matière Première): Was macht eine Marke „handelstauglich“? Klare Linien, verlässliche Qualität, saubere Tester-Politik – und Düfte, die schon am Blotter neugierig machen. Fazit Mit Maison Rebatchi, Born to Stand Out und Masque Milano wäre das Start-Regal einer kleinen Nischen-Parfümerie vielseitig, charakterstark und zugleich zugänglich bestückt – fertig ist der Mix, der Entdeckungsfreude und Wiederkommen belohnt.

Have you ever stopped to think about how exposed your business really is even if you're “doing everything right”? Today's featured guest started his career working in the insurance industry and eventually found a love for marketing. He talks about the side of agency life most people ignore: protecting what you've built, and breaks down how to safeguard your business with the right insurance, why every agency should have cyber liability coverage, and how a “give first” mindset has helped him land major clients like Daymond John, Chris Voss, and Dr. Benjamin Hardy. Draye Redfern is a serial entrepreneur and the founder of Redfern Media and FractionalCMO. Over the past decade, he's built and sold multiple companies, including a $40M insurance agency acquired by one of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway subsidiaries. With 15 years in risk management and a passion for modern marketing, Draye now helps businesses scale smarter while protecting their downside. In this episode, we'll discuss: How “Growth Blindness” Can Hurt Your Business. The Hidden Risk Most Agencies Ignore. Why You Probably Need a Cyber Liability Insurance.

Ready to design faster and smarter? Go to wix.com/studio to get started. The Unlikely Path From Insurance to Marketing Draye grew up in a household where entrepreneurship was a way of life. His dad owned a business, and by age 12, Draye was doing the grunt work: filing papers, scanning documents, and learning what it really meant to keep a company running. He had a front-row seat to the chaos and grit of small business. Over time, Draye realized he had a knack for marketing. His early ideas sometimes outperformed everyone else's, and by his early 20s, he was leading the marketing division of a $28 million firm. Under his direction, they scaled past $40 million in annual revenue. That success led to the company's eventual sale to none other than one of the Berkshire Hathaway companies. Stop Being Growth Blind and Start Protecting the Downside While most marketers are obsessed with lead flow and growth, Draye brings a completely different mindset to the table: protect the downside first. After spending 15 years insurance and the risk management world, he learned that too many businesses are “growth blind.” They're chasing top-line numbers while leaving themselves totally exposed if something goes wrong. For his part, Draye thinks about how to mitigate downside risks first and then, once he has that locked down, then he starts thinking about growth. Admittedly, it's backwards from how most people do it, but it's what makes the most sense to him.  The Hidden Risk Most Agencies Ignore Why does Draye prioritize mitigating downside growth? Most agencies don't think about errors and omissions (E&O) insurance until it's too late. One poorly worded ad, a leaked password, or a miscommunication with a client could lead to a lawsuit that costs hundreds of thousands—if not millions—in legal fees. That's why he recommends a basic “risk protection stack” for agency owners: General Liability – Covers physical damages or slip-and-fall type issues. Employment Practices (EPLI) – Protects against HR-related claims. Errors & Omissions (E&O) – Covers mistakes or oversights in your work. Cyber Liability – Protects against data breaches and hacks. As Draye puts it, marketing agencies hold the keys to dozens of client kingdoms. If you get hacked, they get hacked. Protect yourself first, then scale. Why Every Agency Owner Needs Cyber Liability (and What Happens If You Don't) Most agency owners assume general liability insurance has them covered. Slip-and-fall in the office? Sure. But what about when a client's site gets hacked because one of your team members reused a password? Or when a campaign you ran unintentionally exposes customer data? That's not covered: this is where cyber liability and errors & omissions (E&O) insurance come in. Here's where most people go wrong: they forget to renew. Unlike car or home insurance, E&O and cyber liability policies are “claims-made” policies. That means you're only covered if the policy is active when the claim is filed, not when the incident happened. So if you let your policy lapse, even for a few weeks, you could lose coverage for everything that happened in previous years. That's why many experienced owners “tail out” their policies when they sell or sunset a business. Tail coverage locks in past protection for a set number of years. It costs more upfront but prevents millions in potential exposure later. Keep your coverage active, review it annually, and don't cut corners to save a few hundred bucks. Think of it as part of your agency's operating system, not an optional add-on. Lessons From Selling to Berkshire Hathaway When Berkshire Hathaway came calling, he learned just how deep corporate due diligence can go. “They fly out all their MBAs and basically give your business a financial colonoscopy,” he joked. But that process forced him to see business from a different lens—as an asset, not a job. He walked away with not just a successful exit, but also a new appreciation for how structure, systems, and compliance create enterprise value. How to Get Big Clients: Ask Questions, Be in the Room, and Give First Draye's agency has publicly traded companies in its current client roster, with some notable names including Dr Benjamin Hardy and Chris Voss, and almost all of those brands came to his agency because Draye was in the right rooms to strike up conversation. As he puts it, successful people like to hang around other successful people. To him, his job in the agency at this point is figuring out how to get invited into the room with the right people, which includes joining masterminds and attending events. Even with big clients, Draye recommends offering value first without expecting anything in return. I'll give them an idea of the work you do and, if they like it, they'll have you in mind the next time they need agency services. For instance, after attending a talk by Dr. Benjamin Hardy, Draye had the chance to chat with him and learned he was pulling in over 30,000 email opt-ins a month but wasn't monetizing them. Instead of pitching a retainer, Draye built him a simple funnel — for free — that started generating $10,000 a month in passive revenue. A few months later, Hardy came back and asked, “What else can you do?” That turned into a long-term partnership and a roster of launches that ran for years. How to Stand Out and Make People Feel Seen Draye's other secret weapon is personalization. Not the lazy kind where someone drops your name into a cold email template. Real personalization. When a prospect says they're interested, his team clones a landing page, updates the name in the headline (“Welcome, John!”), and records a 30-second video personally greeting them. The whole process takes fifteen minutes, but it makes people feel like they matter, and that's the part most agencies forget. That simple touch has led to multiple referrals, long-term clients, and lasting loyalty. As Draye puts it, “People don't want to feel like a number. They want to feel like they matter.” This type of simple gesture is usually something clients talk about non-stop, because the more automated the world gets, the more human connection stands out. Old School Is the New Advantage While everyone else is obsessing over AI and inbox deliverability, Draye see a lot of potential on a forgotten channel: direct mail. “People's inboxes are full, but their mailboxes are empty,” he explained. “So, when something real shows up, it stands out.” He's seen massive ROI from direct mail, especially when paired with personalized URLs (PURLs) and custom video. It's more expensive upfront, sure, but it cuts through the noise. Something to keep in mind for agency owners trying to stand out at a time when your client's emails are probably inundated with the same offers everyone is sending out. From his own experience, he says “if I were to look at our client base across the various businesses, the vast majority came from direct mail.” Protect Your Business and Hang Out in Different Rooms Draye shares two pieces of advice for agency owners: You never know what's around the corner, so protect your business. Spend the couple thousand bucks on proper coverage. Don't risk your agency's future over something preventable. Change your rooms. If you only hang out with other marketers, you're limiting your reach. Take Jay Abraham's advice and go fishing in someone else's swimming hole. Attend events for other industries, add value, and you'll be amazed at who you meet. In short, Draye's philosophy blends practical protection with proactive growth. Be bold enough to give first, smart enough to protect what you've built, and intentional enough to show up where the right people are.

This sermon is based on 1 Peter 2:4-10. You can also view each week's sermon/worship service on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5ncsq_QNvCv61bIwKUpP5A SERIES OVERVIEW: What in the world convinced people back in the Roman world to abandon their beliefs and gods and come to Christ? After all, there were no immediate incentives—no promises of instant and lasting health; no promises of a life of exorbitant happiness; no promises of immediate and continued wealth and no promises of adoring popularity. There were, however, plenty of deterrents. In fact, anyone who became a Christ follower back then could expect a largely negative response from others. So, what in the world convinced them to make such a commitment? Surprisingly, it was the people in the church. And unsurprisingly, it is the same thing today. That's what we want to explore in our new series which we are calling, “Stand Out.”

If you've been craving a more soulful connection to your body, your intuition, and the way you lead your life—this episode is a breath of fresh air. It's not just about horses. It's about coming home to you. I'm so delighted to bring you today's deeply moving conversation with transformational coach and equine guide, Sue Willoughby, founder of Willoughby Coaching and host of the Midlife Strategies for Badass Women podcast. This episode explores something I've been fascinated by for years: the intuitive, spiritual, and healing power of horses—and how they reflect back to us the truth of who we are. My closest friends are horse women. I love the whole intuitive aspect of horses and how they teach us the importance of being grounded, authentic, and transparent. From my early mentor Kendall Summerhawk's teachings in her book Brilliance Unbridled, to Sue's equine-assisted coaching practice, I've witnessed again and again how horses become sacred mirrors of our inner lives. They teach us about leadership, presence, boundaries, and the wisdom of being in a "herd"—a community where everyone matters and connection is everything. Sue brings her lived wisdom, humor, resilience, and story to this episode in a way that's both grounding and inspiring. She shares candidly about her path: ·      Growing up in hardship and learning to self-soothe through her bond with horses ·      Coming out gay as a young woman and navigating her identity through decades of growth and reinvention ·      Saying yes to risk, creativity, and change—leaving behind a 6-figure job to follow her calling ·      How skydiving became the metaphor (and literal leap!) into her next career And at the heart of her message is this powerful truth: Horses are intuitive, present, and emotionally honest. When we partner with them, they help us become the same. You'll also learn: What equine-assisted coaching actually looks like in practice Why Sue believes working with horses is not just healing—but life-changing for many women in midlife How horses sense and reflect back our incongruence, helping us re-align with our intuition The power of somatic awareness in decision-making Her involvement in the documentary film Rescued Hearts and what it revealed to her about communal healing Sue's work guides women from feeling burned out and boxed in to becoming resilient, radiant, and unshakable. Sue's secondary focus and passion is real estate and podcasting. She teaches real estate investors and realtors how to build a podcast platform for their brand. She's offering you a robust free workbook and download to begin that journey for yourself.  Links below. Tune in now on Spotify, Apple, Amazon Music, YouTube or iHeart Radio.

A fan hug mid-song. A chart where Megan Moroney owns the moment. Dolly Parton's quiet resilience. We chase the heartbeat of country right now and get brutally practical about how artists truly break through—and stay there—when the spotlight moves on.We start with a listener-fueled rundown of the Top 12 women in country, using each pick to explore story, sound, and why certain songs stick. From Gabby Barrett's early radio push to Trisha Yearwood's six-year return and Miranda Lambert's new edge, we dig into visuals, production choices, and the fan-first decisions that build true loyalty. Lainey Wilson's “walk offstage to hug a day-one” moment turns into a masterclass on brand gravity: authenticity you can feel from the cheap seats.Then we pivot into the mechanics: mainstream and indie charts, “country club” production vs band-in-the-room grit, and how sonic choices align—or clash—with the story you're selling. That sets the stage for an on-air deep dive into Jay's new book, Stand Out or Fade Out. Expect tactical advice on unifying your online image, building trust through consistency, and the proven cover-to-original strategy for short-form video. We also go inside the studio: producers vs. engineers, who actually elevates an artist's voice, and the small, unglamorous moves—like an intern who quietly finished painting a wall—that earn the big breaks.Threaded through it all: Dolly's health updates and record-setting chart legacy, a guitar pick gifted mid-show, and the reminder that reputation beats raw talent when careers get real. If you want a roadmap that blends heart, craft, and practical steps you can use tomorrow, this one's for you.Send us a text Support the showLinks Jay Franze: https://jayfranze.com/ The Jay Franze Show: https://thejayfranzeshow.com/ JFS Country Countdown: https://jayfranze.com/countdown/ Contact Reach Out: https://jayfranze.com/contact/ Mailbag: https://jayfranze.com/mailbag/ Question of the Day: https://jayfranze.com/question/ Sponsor the Show: https://jayfranze.com/sponsor/ Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jayfranze TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jayfranze X: https://x.com/jayfranze YouTube: https://youtube.com/@jayfranze Services Consulting: https://jayfranze.com/services/ Books Stand Out or Fade Out: https://jayfranze.com/books/

Minnie and Fred open Monday Night Therapy celebrating Nebraska's 38–27 win over Michigan State, then pivot to a Maryland preview with guest Matt Germack of SB Nation/Testudo Times. Matt explains “September Maryland”: 19–3 in September over five years, 12–22 afterward. He says the Terps' defense is notably improved with a legit pass rush (freshmen edge duo Sidney Stewart and Zaheer Mathis), but the offense is unbalanced: an anemic run game and shaky O-line have forced heavy RPO passing. Standout freshman QB Malik Washington looks poised and accurate, but Maryland's fourth-quarter collapse vs. Washington (after leading 20–0) highlighted play-calling issues and inexperience. He notes Maryland leads the Big Ten in sacks and can exploit pressure-to-sack tendencies, a concern versus Nebraska's developing tackles. Crowd edge may favor Nebraska: it's Maryland's fall break, so attendance could dip. Special teams could swing the game—Maryland's kicker is reliable short, punter is excellent, but kickoff coverage leaks; Nebraska's special teams are “kick-ass,” with recent return TDs and an Aussie punter. The hosts like Nebraska's defensive matchup against Maryland's run struggles and believe continuity on the Huskers' O-line can help protect Dylan Raiola, whose composure and leadership stood out in windy conditions vs. MSU. Prediction vibe: a competitive game, slight Nebraska lean.

The FIDE Grand Swiss always seems to deliver drama, and this year's edition was no exception. To help break it all down, I am joined by popular commentator, Chessable author, and host of the Power Play Chess YouTube channel, GM Daniel King. In our conversation, Daniel shares his takeaways on: • The common thread that fueled the successes of GMs Anish Giri and Matthias Blübaum • Standout performances from young stars like GMs Erdogmus, Mishra, and Woodward • Why the Women's Grand Swiss produced fewer surprise qualifiers • A look ahead to the FIDE World Cup and the fight for the remaining Candidates spots We also touch on tournament formats, opening preparation, and Daniel's current projects. This was a fascinating event to follow and an equally fun one to recap with GM King. Thanks to our sponsors, Silver Knights Chess Academy.
