Speaking at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth delivered a sweeping outline detailing the administration's vision for the future of the U.S. armed forces. In a speech flanked by junior officers and non-commissioned officers, Hegseth laid out plans for a fundamental restructuring of the Department of Defense - a transition marked by significant ideological shifts, the dismantling of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, and the confirmation of plans to eliminate 20% of America's top military general officers and admirals. At the center of this transformation is Project Meridian, a new 120-day government study commissioned to map out technological dominance across next-generation operational domains - including artificial intelligence, autonomous weapons, subterranean warfare, and lunar security.

Interview with Eric Zaunscherb, President & CEO of GR Silver Mining Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/gr-silver-mining-tsxvgrsl-drilling-and-pilot-plant-strategy-support-growth-10136Recording date: 23rd September 2026GR Silver Mining Ltd. (TSXV:GRSL, OTCQX:GRSLF) is a Mexico-focused silver explorer that owns 100% of the Plomosas Project on the Sinaloa-Durango border. The project combines two assets with different roles. San Marcial is a silver discovery that hosts 46 Moz of indicated and 14 Moz of inferred silver under the 2023 resource estimate. The Plomosas Mine is a past producer that operated from 1986 to 2000 and now serves as a potential bulk sampling site. President and CEO Eric Zaunscherb has taken on direct responsibility for the Mexican business following the death of founder Marcio Fonseca.The central development in 2026 is hole SMS26-04, which returned 45.1 m true width at 1,623 g/t silver, including 8.25 m at 8,579 g/t silver. Zaunscherb said the result matters most because it confirms the company's geological model. Mineralising fluids from an intrusive body broke up an overlying breccia. Metal was deposited in dilation zones where cross-cutting structures intersect it. The hole was 99.8% silver by value, compared with roughly 90% for the 2023 resource.Rather than rushing out an early resource to showcase the hole, the company is tightening drill spacing around it from 100 m to 45 m. That aims to bring the zone into the indicated category for the resource update targeted for the first half of 2027. The 20,000 m programme is behind plan, with about 7,000 m completed after security issues and a difficult rainy season. GR Silver is spending about $1 million upgrading road access from Durango and plans to add rigs.At Plomosas, SEMARNAT has ruled that no new environmental impact authorisation is required. Zaunscherb prefers toll milling or selling material at the mine gate over building a pilot plant, citing lower capital, a shorter timeline and lower execution risk. Pilot plant engineering nonetheless remains among the company's listed catalysts. Output would be limited to 60 to 100 tonnes per day by available power. The strategic value is social licence. Restoring local employment in a very poor area could build goodwill that carries over to San Marcial, 5 kilometres to the south. Management believes this could shorten San Marcial's five-to-seven-year path to potential cash flow by one or two years.The company held C$26 million in cash and expects further proceeds from in-the-money warrants averaging C$0.26. Zaunscherb noted that the stock trades as a silver proxy. Longer term, GR Silver plans to permit an access tunnel at San Marcial, which could enable underground drilling from later 2028. Plomosas would produce lead and zinc concentrates, while San Marcial points to a Merrill-Crowe circuit producing doré.On corporate strategy, parties are in the data room, and management is also reviewing acquisitions that could diversify risk within Mexico. Key risks are security, access, development capital and silver price sensitivity. Key watch-items are pending assays, drilling pace and the H1 2027 resource update.View GR Silver Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/gr-silver-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com/subscribe

Today’s prevailing opinion tells you that as long as you’re sincere, you have a seat at God’s table. As long as your good deeds outweigh your bad deeds, the Almighty will give you a thumb’s up. But that’s not quite right, is it? Jesus’ words, “No one comes to the Father except through me,” may sound restrictive. But if He’s right, His words are actually the key to all of life. In this episode of Live the Bible, we’ll consider how Jesus’ outrageous words are actually the key to discovering true peace and joy.

September 17, 2026 A Skid Steer and a Craigslist Ad w/ Tyler Marks (DT 479) Tyler Marks is the founder of Marks Clearing and Grading, a North Carolina land clearing and grading contractor he started at 18 with just a skid steer and a Craigslist ad. He grew the company alongside the Raleigh construction boom, buying oversized equipment before he needed it and betting on the market long before he had the projects to justify it. What started with small grading and clearing jobs grew into an operation supporting roughly 250 families, but Tyler is quick to admit the growth came with plenty of mistakes, bad decisions, and lessons learned the hard way. He explains why owning more equipment doesn't necessarily mean having a better business, how admitting what he didn't know helped him earn the trust of experienced operators, and why bringing in leaders more capable than himself became necessary to take the company to the next level. Tyler also shares why he's focused less on constantly putting out fires and more on “taking the lighters away,” how Marks is developing young employees instead of making them wait years for opportunities, and what it takes to keep growing when the company you started becomes much bigger than you.

Uber/Lyft drivers buy Cybercabs. EngineeringUnboxed assembly. The car is built as parallel modules (front casting, rear, pack/seats, outer skins) and joined late. Tesla says the line footprint is about half a conventional line. Deleting hydraulics and paint is what makes that join possible.UnoColor-in-mold RIM body skins. Outer panels (doors, hood skin, roof, quarters, bumpers) are polyurethane made by reaction injection molding with the gold mixed into the part. No paint shop. Cycle time minutes instead of hours. That is a factory change, not a styling choice.Dry brake-by-wire. First Tesla with zero brake fluid, zero brake lines, no master cylinder. Each caliper has its own electric actuator. Pads can pull fully off the rotor (less drag). No fluid to flush on a 24/7 taxi. One of the first production cars in the world to do this dry; Chery in China got there a few months earlier.Steer-by-wire with no column. Cybertruck already had steer-by-wire and a wheel. Cybercab deletes the wheel. The rack sits behind the front drive unit and only takes electronic commands from the autonomy stack.Supermanifold V3 thermal system. Tesla's claim matches what you read: they cut extra refrigerant valves and lines, merged high- and low-voltage controllers into one box, say production is ~80% automated and the system is ~38% more efficient than other automotive thermal setups. That is the heat-pump / battery / cabin plumbing, not a marketing slogan about “climate control.”Smaller, lighter, rare-earth-free drive unit. Single front motor, 163 kW / 219 hp. Tesla: 18% smaller, 25% lighter than top competing EV units, designed for sub-10-second automated assembly. Ferrite / Halbach instead of neodymium. First Tesla that is front-wheel-drive only.No human controls as a packaging rule. No wheel, pedals, mirrors, or rear window. That is not just UX. It lets them drop hydraulic plumbing, a steering column, mirror drag, and a lot of crash structure around a driver. Cd claimed under 0.2.48-volt low-voltage architecture. Same idea as Cybertruck: thinner wiring, fewer fuses, easier automation. Most of the industry is still on 12V.Small 4680 pack, high miles per kWh. ~48 kWh, ~3,100 lb car, EPA-adjusted range near 300 miles. The engineering bet is efficiency and utilization (two seats, ~80% of trips) instead of a giant battery.Fleet-life design, not owner-car design. 500,000-mile target, camera washers, inductive charging as the intended depot method (NACS still there for now), automatic butterfly doors, cabin camera for leftover bags. That is ops engineering: fewer service visits, no paint matching, no brake-fluid intervals.In addition to: No steering wheel, pedals, mirrors…. READ Electronic actuators instead of hydraulic liquid brakes…this seems so obvious!! The Tesla Cybercab doesn't have ANY brake fluid. It is the first production vehicle to have a brake-by-wire system. Electronic actuators are responsible for the clamping pressure, rather than hydraulic fluid that you see in traditional vehicles.This system improves efficiency since the brake pads can fully disengage. They can go entirely off or on. It also enables Tesla to fine-tune the braking to be as smooth as possible.PLUS, when the car is built with the unboxed process, Tesla doesn't need to run any brake lines, everything is seamless.READ Painting: All panels are RIM Reaction Injection Molding.

Your reputation is being built with every client, every interaction, and every decision you make, but are you actually managing it?  In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, Jason and Sarah Hull talk about the impact reputation has on the growth of a property management business and why trust needs to be at the center of the relationships you build.  They discuss how questionable sales tactics can damage trust before a relationship even begins, why choosing the wrong clients can lead to bigger reputation problems, and how word of mouth can quickly influence the way people see your company.

Hello everybody. I'm Jason Hull. This is Sarah Hull, founder and CEO of DoorGro, and owner and COO of DoorGrow. And we are the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs. We've been doing this for 18 years and we would love to help you grow your business. All right, so let's get into the show. I'm shortening it up today. It's a little long.   I keep getting shorter. Maybe next time it'll just be like, hey, we're door grow and let's get into it. All right. So today what came up on one of our coaching calls, we were talking about what maybe we should talk about. And one of the group coaching calls where clients get on and they ask questions and they share their wins. Somebody was asking about a residence benefits package and they were saying they were talking to two different companies. And then everybody started chiming in negatively.   on one of those companies when he had mentioned the two companies. This because it's a mastermind. So people are like, yeah, this vendor, they have a bad reputation, they're negative, this sort of thing. And it really made me think. So so what we're going to talk about today is reputation and how important it is to manage your reputation, how important that is to impacting or affecting word of mouth and growth of your company and all of that sort of stuff. So   Cool. All right. And this isn't the th so there was this instance. There was also we got a client on recently and they came to us. They were from a had come from a BDM supplier, a BDM business development manager, which is for those that don't know, a salesperson for property management. They'd come from one of these BDM sort of coaching consulting companies that does placement. That's in the in in the ni industry. And they had   They were on their fourth BDM from this company. And they had had a pretty bad experience. And so they were talking negatively about this other company. actually, I got two clients on recently that had similar experience with this BDM coaching company, and they said similar things. So let's go back to the mass rank call. So they were talking about the resident benefits package.   And talking bad about one vendor. And then they s they were everybody started talking positively about the other vendor. And these are kind of two big competitors. One's been in the industry a long a long time, has a good reputation, and they've been sponsors at our events, and the other one is maybe a newer kid on the block and is resorting to some interesting tactics to get clients. So what have you heard that they're doing to get clients? I think you heard.   That they were, weren't they calling and pretending to be an investor? Yeah, something for property manager. Something like this, some sort of shady tactic of calling up, pretending to be somebody interested in property management so they could get in contact with the business owner who often is acting as the BDM or salesperson. You know, it's a clever tactic. Can it work? Yes. What's the challenge with this? Well   Relationships are built on trust. If you're going to use a vendor, if somebody's going to use you as a property manager, the product you're selling is trust. They don't really care about property management. They wanted somebody they can trust that's going to have their interests in mind and take care of their property that they can trust to do the right thing. Because they're giving you control and you can do a lot of things that are not the right thing or that are unethical.   And it's not a real ethical strategy to trick or manipulate the people you're trying to sell to to start the relationship. So going back to the BDM companies, when I asked the the BDMs of these these two coaching clients we took on, and we were g they want me to help them get their BDMs up to speed and give them good strategy, I said, What strategies were they giving you to do? And they said, Well, it was mostly just   sales role play in learning sales. I'm like, what about growth? And they said, Well, they had us cold calling or calling, you know, and pretending to be tenants or be interested in the rental property. And then we would flip it. And I'm like, So you're starting it out you're starting a relationship of trust by first being untrustworthy and like destroying trust and and the BDM, the gal, she said, Yeah, I didn't I didn't really like it either.   Now maybe they have better strategies than this. Maybe these BDMs weren't doing a good job. We'll find out as they're in our programs, see if they're gonna put in the work, do the things we teach them and tell them to do, which is not that because we believe in trust. But but th similar sort of issue. You can't start a relationship out that is going to be founded and based on trust with by destroying the very thing it should be founded on and then expect you're gonna have a good relationship or that they're gonna wanna buy from you. So   That's my quick two cents on that. Why didn't this deal close? I don't understand. Yeah. Why why am I not getting business why is my business struggling to grow? Well, what are you doing? Lying to people? well. Talking to them. Yeah. Like we start out strong. So, you know, we I I've been at this for like eighteen years. Door girls existed for a long time. You know, and   There's been people that have complained about us. And so the other f side of the coin of this is that you have to be really careful about the clients that you take on. Cause if you take on bad clients or cheap clients or clients with a really broken mindset or that are really negative active, as I would call it, meaning they're constantly looking to destroy everything. They're always looking to find fault in everything. You know those kind of clients. Though they're really difficult for you to deal with.   If you don't qualify your your clientele and you bring on anybody, you're going to have some crappy clients like that. And if you have crappy clients, they're going to give you bad reviews and they're going to be negative about everything and they're going to find fault. Are we perfect to DoorGro? Absolutely not. However, all of our stuff is proven. We have clients that have gotten great results on every single growth engine strategy that we teach, but we've had clients in the past that we didn't do a good job qualifying them, brought them in and   They didn't even for some reason pay attention to what we told them they were buying. And then they thought, well, I paid 10 grand for a website and didn't get a result, which the website was like a minor piece that we threw in as part of the process. And they just didn't do any of the work to get the doors. And it was about teaching them strategies to get doors and helping them optimize the front end of the business. And so you have to be careful about the clients that you take on because the clients that you take on.   d eventually determine the the reputation you're going to have and the reviews that you're going to get. Like a lot of property management companies have negative reviews. The number one way to prevent negative reviews is don't work with certain tenants and certain owners. That's it. Like the that's the easiest way to filter out negative reviews is to filter out bad clo customers. And a lot of times we don't pay attention to that. That's been a mistake that I've made in the past. We've gotten better at that.   Yeah. In general we have really good clients. I think our biggest frustration with some of our clients is really they just sometimes don't do the work. That's probably it. Like we generally attract really good clients, but sometimes they just really don't want to do the work to go outdoors or do the work to to grow. And sometimes it takes them a f several months to figure out that they're not a salesperson or that they just aren't really gonna do the work. And that's where we have a little   conversation with them about maybe stepping into one of our other offers where we place a salesperson for them or where w we ought become their salesperson for them because they realize they don't really like sales. We can hear do you hear your dog? We can hear my my dog is outside my office. You can't probably hear it, but he's groaning and whining. My dog loves me. He can't like be without me for like what, a few minutes?   Hans, you're okay. Relax. I'm the Poor baby. Okay. Now he's barking. He's just gonna get louder and louder. We're gonna have to end this soon. I know quite a few of our videos. He can hear us talking. He's like, Why are they not paying attention to me?   So reputation is king, right? It it it matters a lot. It ha impacts word of mouth. It you know, just like on today's well, yesterday's coaching call, with clients, this business that's trying to get customers, they're gonna have a hard time because everybody on that call heard negative things about this company and said, Steer clear. And I know there's bad actors.   That are competitors of mine that like to say negative things about me and about DoorGrow. And sometimes not usually about me though. No.   Which is fascinating. They they sometimes act like you don't exist. I don't I know, it's really funny. They don't want to attack a woman. Maybe that's it, 'cause they're Muslimer dudes. But   I have in the past, but it doesn't work out well anyway. It doesn't really have a good impact. It's funny. But yeah, there's a lot of people that will say negative things about your business. The other thing is you have to be able you have to be willing to put yourself out there. You have to put out content, you have to put out testimonials, you have to show evidence that these what these people are saying is not true. If it isn't. And maybe some of the companies that I mentioned, I didn't mention their names, but that I alluded to on this call.   Maybe they're good business. Maybe they do have good growth engines and good ways to scale a business for BDMs. Maybe they do have a good residence benefits package program, but they aren't managing their reputation well. They're taking certain actions. Maybe sometimes it's our onboarding isn't good enough and clients have a bad experience and then don't get the results. Sometimes we don't do a good good enough job on the hiring piece or filtering out people that we bring in, just like the BDM company had.   probably hired three bad BDMs for this company. The fourth one that they have now, I vetted and I think they did a good job with. But the other ones were probably not the personality fit based on what they had said. Like one of them quit and got a job as an operator in a company and it's a whole different personality type than sales. And so yeah, so you know, part of it's developing your skill set, improving, r reducing things like churn and all these different things that   Com compound and have impact. And then I think the biggest, even for us, is we got to make sure you bring on good clients. Like if you bring on bad clients, they will always complain and get bad results and they will blame you and they will go tell other people about it because these are people that are not accountable, they don't take ownership, and they're not going to blame themselves. And so you got to be careful of that. So you know the ones that are, you know, it's your fault that something broke at the property. It's like, I didn't realize.   that I was in charge of things breaking or not. I didn't know I had that power. Well why did you allow that to break? I'm sorry, what? I had no idea I could control that. News to me. But no matter what, you know, they're they're just they're not happy. It's it's it's almost like there's not a way to make them happy. And they just like being miserable and they like complaining about things.   No matter what. No matter what, you can call them and tell them great news and you're like, This is really good. I finally have some good news to deliver to them and they will still find a way to be upset about something. Yeah. And you know, it could be that even the clients that I brought on recently that were complaining about other companies, we could be the next company they complain about. Sometimes it's the common denominator is the client. And so that could be the case. So we'll find out. Like if they do the work, they get the results. Our stuff's proven.   But sometimes people just want somebody else to be at fault and want to blame somebody else and they don't really want to put in the work or take action. So I think we did it. Or fix their property. Yeah. Take care of things. Yeah. I don't want to have to do that. I can't believe you're asking me to They don't want to do it. Yeah. So so be intentional about managing your reputation. Be intentional about   PR, like public relations, make sure you're putting out a good message into the marketplace because if you leave it up to the most motivated people to dictate the what your reputation looks like online and publicly, usually it's gonna be the no it noisiest, which are usually the angriest or the worst. They've got a vendetta, they've got a grudge, they had a they had a bad day, maybe it wasn't even about you, but they need somebody to take it out on. You become   Scapegoat, you become the the company they want to attack and they want to get their frustrations out on you. And so then, yeah. And so you've got to have evidence, you've got to have ways to manage this. So, you know, if if somebody came at me and attacked me in the past, I was very willing to s to reply to that comment. And I would just say, here's what we told them to do. They didn't never they did not do this. Here's what they actually bought. They only use this part. Like, you know, so.   And then they can decide whether they want to keep that review up because it makes their company look bad, right? So yeah, so you gotta be careful about who you take on, be careful about how you manage your customers. And then you gotta be careful about managing your reputation so you make sure that you're constantly putting out a good message. The other thing we talk about a lot with clients is the principle of making the invisible visible. Do you wanna chat about that just real quick? You can. Okay.   All right, I'll talk about it. You can't here here's I don't know. I d I think sometimes people go too much here. They do too much on the They do they you they do like my clients never knew anything that was going on and they were perfectly happy but Yeah because I didn't bother them on anything. I wasn't They trusted you, they knew you were in control. Yeah, yeah. You hear from me, it's like not great news.   The only time really that they would kind of get an update almost or hear that kind of stuff was on some sort of like portfolio review call. Yes. Where I was intentional about making sure that they knew, you know, hey, here's here's what we're doing. I would say probably the biggest for me anyway, the biggest time that this was really happening was COVID. Okay. That was like the loudest that I ever was with my clients.   Yeah. There was a lot of panic. Yeah, a lot of anxiety. And man, and especially in my market, it was bad. Like we already had a hard time getting tenants to pay. Yeah. And then they had a real legitimate reason to not pay. Yeah. And I I mean, I was nervous about it. I knew my clients were nervous about it. And there were most tenants just did what they were supposed to do. Some tenants took advantage of it and some were just kind of, you know, caught in   bad situation because of it. But in COVID it like I had I felt like I had to let people know like here's what we are doing and here's what we're not doing and you know if we're you know changing like we're not even allowed to at one point we weren't even allowed to do an inspection on properties. Yeah which is weird. We also weren't allowed to do any maintenance. Like they stopped maintenance. Yeah that's crazy. Like what? How does that work?   So it was really weird, but if if if the state makes it so that you cannot send a contractor out to a property, and whether it's a contractor or the owner or a handyman, it doesn't matter who it is, but cannot send somebody out to a property to make a repair. That was the law. And I had to tell my clients that.   For right now, here's the situation. we'll see how that pans out, I guess, and hopefully there's no repairs that need to be done that are major. So like little repairs, you know, we're holding off on those and major repairs, I guess we'll tackle that if and when we come to it. So that was probably the time that I was really the the loudest about making sure everyone knew what I was actually doing. Yeah, my general policy has always been if if somebody has a problem   You want to go as deep as possible. So it's like communicate with them as direct as possible as a client, which means usually pick up the phone rather than just text them, you know, something that's gonna cause drama. But I think that's an email blast. But well, with something like that where it's everybody, yeah, just you can do an email blast. But but the the principle of making them visible visible is a lot of what you do as a property manager manager is invisible. So the assumption is you're doing nothing. So   And doing an annual review with your clients is a great opportunity to point out all the good that you've done for them. Maybe right after you've onboarded a client and the first rent check's been deposited and they've got that in their bank account, that'd be a great time to do your first owner review. And that's an opportunity to point out all the good that you've done for them, point out the work that you've been involved in, everything that you've handled, all the phone calls you've handled, all this kind of stuff that they have not had to deal with.   So that they now can see, there's value here that you're providing, rather than just expecting them to somehow know. and then, yeah, setting really strong boundaries so they trust you and they're not just communicating with you all the time is also something we talk about a lot. so that's another way that you can manage expectations and manage your perception and your reputation with the people that you're dealing with. So this is just   Something that came to mind from our coaching call this week. And so we wanted to pass it along to you, is make sure you're managing your reputation. You know, I've got one other example. So we've had some clients, occasionally clients sometimes have a hard time paying us. They have financial issues. And there's sometimes there's those clients that just repeatedly have financial problems. They're just they're not putting in the work to figure out how to grow their business.   They want to do it. They're paying us to teach them how to do it, but they just don't actually put in the time or the hours to do it because they probably really don't want to. They don't really think it's fun. I don't know. And so they're avoiding it. And so, and then they aren't making the money. And then it becomes kind of a financial burden because our program's not cheap. And so then they're trying to pay for the program. So then they have payment problems. Now, if people continually have problems paying us and things like this, it's frustrating because then our team have to get involved. We have to shell out money.   And so then our team starts to have a perception about this business owner, like, hey, what's going on with them? They're not doing the work, they're not making the money, and they're not paying us. And then it gets frustrating for us as a team because we want our clients to win and we love our clients and we want to see them succeed. But when we get in a situation like this, we're now instead of like supporting them, coaching them, we're having to follow up, trying to get payment and see how they're doing and they're not they're ignoring us or avoiding our emails or   not responding to things, either they're bad at managing their emails and or they are seeing our emails requesting payment and they're just ignoring us, which I guess is even worse when it comes to integrity. But if you're out of state of integrity, which means you're not being honest with yourself, like you sign up for a program to get coaching, but you and they give you actions to take and you don't do the actions. You're out of integrity with yourself. You're like, I know I should do this.   Just like I should go work out, but I don't do it. Then I feel guilty or beat myself up or I'm out of integrity with myself, right? You got to be real and honest with yourself. And then you end up not paying people. Now there's you're creating a perception issue. And maybe this goes into other areas of their business. Maybe they struggle paying vendors. Maybe they struggle paying other people. And this is going to impact your reputation in the marketplace. So you want to make sure that you're taking care of things and you're putting in the work to get stuff done.   There's there's if you're the business owner, the buck stops with you. If you're the business owner, it's your responsibility. Nobody else on your team unless you can delegate effectively. And if you can't, it's your fault. It's always on your shoulders. And so you have to take ownership of that. There's a great book on the subject by I think Patrick Lincioni called The Motive. And it's about the different two different motives of a CEO. There's the one where you think, well, I'm so above it all, everybody else should do stuff.   And there's the one that realizes the true role of the CEO is to do whatever it takes. If you own a McDonald's and you're the franchise owner and somebody didn't show up to flip burgers, if you can't fill this spot, you're flipping burgers. That's the responsibility of the CEO. You're doing whatever needs to be done to make the business work. And there's a lot of different things that Sarah and I have to step into to take care of sometimes. That's what business owners do in your own business. And so   If you aren't the one stepping in to do things, you're going to end up also sometimes with a bad reputation. Now, we want to create a, you know, a lifeboat. We want to escape from that. We don't want to be doing all the frontline work. That's why we build teams. But you can't build a team if you can't even lead yourself and be have integrity with yourself and do the things that you know you should be doing. Your team are going to pick up on that and go, that's the culture here. We just sort of half ass stuff. We just, we sort of pay vendors and people on time.   We don't take care of things the way we should. We're told to do actions and we'll do some of them. That's not the kind of culture that you want to build. So ultimately the culture you create is going to be based on who you show up as and who you are and the type of team you allow to be in your business. Another factor to consider. Aaron Stokes used to talk about that. Do you remember his story? What story? Was building his his business and he was getting pretty successful.   And I think it was a team member stole from him like a lot of money. Not just like, yeah, it was like a hundred bucks or a thousand dollars. It was a lot of money. Like thousands, thousands, many, multiple thousands of dollars. And that obviously really messed things up. he had he didn't have funds to pay   Some of the vendors that they had worked with. Yeah. He didn't have funds to pay some of his loans that he had taken out, like rent or mortgage on buildings that he had, or you know, and it really it was even like I don't know if I can pay my team at that point. Yeah. It was I mean it was He could have declared bankruptcy he had mentioned. He I think he almost did because it was it was well over it was six figures. It's not just like a little   amount of money, it was a lot of money and it was not by his own doing. Yeah. Like he didn't mess it up. Yeah. but he allowed someone onto his team and gave them access and didn't pay attention. And therefore he admitted fault for it. He's like, I didn't do it, but it's on me. Yeah. He owned it. And he knew this was gonna sink him.   And it it just about did. Yeah. And he worked really, really, really hard for a very long time to rebuild things. Yeah. And clean things up. But the problem is once once they burn those bridges, like it's very hard to, you know, restore things. It's not impossible. It's just hard. and he worked for a very long time and up until the day he died, he would pay the invoice as soon as he got it.   Yeah. It didn't matter. And he said, I I I don't care. Like if today is August sixth and it's due on the 30th, but you sent it to me today, I'm paying it. So he just created this mentality then of we we pay things early. We don't we don't wait. We never pay late. We always pay early. When we get it, we pay it, and that's it. And I don't care where the money comes from, we're we're paying it early. And he said, Because I'm never, never   gonna have my reputation on the line like that again. He said that did so much damage. He said there the the the damage to the business and the team and the finances and you know the the the assets, that's that's all one thing. But it's a relatively simple mess to clean up. What you can't really clean up as easily is the bad reputation that now you have. Because now you're the guy that defaults on loans.   Now you're the guy that says you're gonna pay somebody and you don't. Now you're the guy that doesn't pay your team who worked for you. Now you're the guy who takes out a loan and you're not even good for it. So that was devastating to him. And he worked up until the day he died to make sure that his reputation he wanted people to know we are good for the money. And we will always be good for the money. And I don't care what we have to do, we will   Figure it out and we will be good for the money. So they paid invoices as soon as they got them. They wanted to pay them early. And they knew they were on top of everything. That's why I think he was so deep in he did a very deep dive into his finances and he understood a PL probably with the best accountants on this planet. He could go toe-to-toe and line by line. And if something was off by a few cents, he would go, that's   That's not right. There's something wrong here. And he did that all because of that experience. But it damaged his reputation so badly that he had to work so hard to get that back. And it was hard to get that back. It's hard once you mess it up like that to get trust back from people. But once you get that trust back from someone, you can never, never, never break it again. So he had to be very diligent and make sure that he was really on top of everything because he said if you   If you shatter your reputation, like you don't have anything left. Yeah. You can build any business you want to, but not on a bad reputation. Yeah. When we were in that mass run with Aaron Soakes and Sharon Shrivatsa, you know, Sharon would say fame is the most efficient business model. And the opposite of that would be having a bad reputation. And so it's the least efficient business model is to have a bad reputation in the marketplace.   So yeah, Aaron worked really hard. He also negotiated with all the vendors. He let them know the situation. He said, This is what I can do. He made payment plans. Like he kept he communicated with all of them and he sorted it out with them. he didn't just ghost them. He didn't like avoid them. He didn't, you know, like we've had happen to us. Yeah. Yeah. He did he did do the right thing and contact everyone and he did what he could. And I I he did pay off everything.   Yeah, you got it all paid off. Never declare bankruptcy. Everybody was taken care of. They paid his motto was pay everything early. Cool. So there's some ideas. I think this is a good place to to wrap up. If you are interested in growing your property management business, you're struggling   You don't have really high profit margin. You're like 10% or worse, 20% or worse. And you would like to get really good margins in your business. You would like to get your team and systems really well dialed in. You would like to get adding more doors and get your growth engines installed and growing. Reach out to us at DoorGrow. I think we're the best in the world at helping people do this. We would love to help you. and that being said, to our mutual growth. I hope everybody wins and has success. And until next time, bye everyone.   All right. Baby Hans. He's whining. Bye everyone.

What is your race car suspension really doing under load?In this EPARTRADE Race Industry Now technical webinar, Morse Measurements takes an in-depth look at Kinematics & Compliance (K&C) testing and how race teams can measure suspension behavior under real-world lateral, longitudinal, braking, steering and cornering loads.Bob Simons, President, and Sonja Atkins, K&C Lab Manager at Morse Measurements, demonstrate how K&C testing can reveal suspension characteristics that are difficult to isolate at the racetrack or with conventional pull-down testing.Topics include:• Steer and camber compliance under lateral load• Force-based roll center measurement• Roll stiffness and roll steer• Camber recovery• Anti-roll bar contribution• Tire stiffness and tire pressure effects• Suspension behavior under braking loads• Combined-load cornering simulations• Aerodynamic downforce simulation• Correlating physical measurements with vehicle dynamics models• Finding suspension behavior that doesn't match the theoretical calculationsSee how controlled K&C testing allows engineers to apply race-relevant forces to a complete vehicle, measure how the suspension actually responds, identify unexpected compliance or binding, and make more informed setup decisions before going to the track.Featuring:Bob Simons, President, Morse MeasurementsSonja Atkins, K&C Lab Manager, Morse MeasurementsHosted by Brad Gillie from SiriusXM, Ch. 90, Late Shift.Presented by ARP, Inc., PEAK, Fifth Third Bank Motorsports, Ferrea Racing Components, CTech Manufacturing, & Race-Fan.#RaceCarEngineering #Suspension #VehicleDynamics #MotorsportsEngineering #Kinematics #RaceEngineering #KandCTesting #EPARTRADE

Tariffs bought this industry a window. Ramiro Gutierrez, President of North America, ZF Group, is not convinced we are using it.He has spent 30 years in the automotive industry, and he left it once. Aerospace turned out to be slower than he expected, with cycles running roughly five times longer, and he returned to ZF for engineering. What he came back to is a company spending around 8% of revenue on R&D and now under real pressure to prove that money produces a return.That pressure is where this conversation starts, and it goes somewhere most tier one interviews do not. Ramiro walks through what his Chinese customers are doing with hardware ZF has already put on the vehicle. A customer looked at ZF's active suspension and figured out that lifting a wheel lets you change a flat tire without a jack. At CES, ZF showed a tire-noise function built from a damper and a chassis sensor, both already on the car. Same hardware, new functionality, software doing the work.Meanwhile, the Western specification book has been growing for a hundred years, page after page, all for good reasons, until it moved past anything a customer can feel. The cost is real, and the value is not.Ramiro is direct about tariffs. He calls them a tool in the sandbox, useful for buying time. He is just as direct about what happens if the industry spends that time defending the status quo instead of closing the gap.Then there is the leadership half of it. He is president of ZF North America and head of the global steering business unit, sitting between a German foundation owner under enormous pressure and a workforce spread across the US, Mexico, and Canada. His answer to that complexity is not a new org chart. It is communication treated as an investment, people sent to see other realities with their own eyes, consensus built and then closed, and accountability that sounds like “where are we” rather than “why didn't you.”The clock is running. Ramiro believes the future is bright. He also believes we have to move.Themes Discussed in this EpisodeCreating value through software, not more hardwareWhy Chinese OEMs adopt technology fasterTariffs as a tool with an expiration dateThe hundred-year specification problemCommunication as a leadership investmentPositive accountability without micromanagementLeading a German-owned business across three countriesEngineering ambition meeting financial disciplineThis episode is sponsored by Lockton, click here to learn more

Nick Kirby and Craig Sandlin discuss the report that Jim Bowden of The Athletic listed Spencer Steer as the best trade fit for the Toronto Blue Jays: Bowden said "He's still only 28 but is arbitration eligible for the first time this offseason, which is why the Reds could move on from him." Bowden also said "The Reds need another impact bat, preferably in the outfield, but the way they're playing right now, they're much better off being sellers."   Chatterbox Reds on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dEIq4ZUebQ    OTHER CHATTERBOX PROGRAMING: Chatterbox Bengals: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chatterbox-bengals-a-cincinnati-bengals-nfl-podcast/id1652732141  Chatterbox Bearcats: https://chatterboxbearcats.podbean.com/  The Stone Shields Show: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/west-4th-and-long/id1828384424  The Flyin Lion (FC Cincinnati): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-flyin-lion-fc-cincinnati-podcast/id1701368522    Chatterbox Reds Sponsors:   Book your appointment at Richter & Phillips today: http://richterphillips.com/chatterbox   The Anthony Muñoz 78 Cigar!

Welcome to Part 6 of the Walk Into the Biggest Quantum Jump of Your Life Guided Walking Meditation series. Many people believe the hardest part of transformation is getting started. But the real challenge is staying the course.    It's easy to feel motivated after a breakthrough. It's easy to feel certain after a powerful realization. What's harder is continuing to move forward when distractions appear, old patterns resurface, and fear attempts to pull you back toward what's familiar.    In this quantum walking journey, you'll explore what it means to consciously steer your life instead of allowing circumstances, emotions, or outside influences to determine your direction. You'll discover why self-leadership isn't about perfection, but about consistently returning to the path you've chosen.    Using the Fire Horse and jockey framework, this walk is designed to help you strengthen your focus, reconnect with your destination, and develop the ability to guide yourself forward even when the road feels uncertain.  Because the most successful people aren't the ones who never drift.  They're the ones who know how to return.    RESOURCES MENTIONED:    Get Your Fire Horse Identity Journal HERE The first 1,111 people can download this for free during this special Fire Horse activation window.    Special offer for my Quantum Walkers wanting to accelerate their results using my money healing and manifestation landmark program, Make More Work Less: GET IT HERE    >> Join the famous ProjectME Posse Community where dream businesses are built by staying on track while applying my proven growth strategies HERE    CONNECT WITH TIFF:  Tiffany on Instagram @projectme_with_tiffany   Tiffany on TikTok @projectme_with_tiffany  Tiffany on YouTube: ProjectME TV  Tiffany's FREE Email Community: JOIN HERE > The Secret Posse Digest    During this episode you'll discover:  • Why staying the course is often more challenging than getting started  • The hidden ways fear, distractions, and old habits can pull you off your path  • Why self-leadership is built through redirection, not perfection  • How to recognize when you've drifted away from your true destination  • The difference between reacting to life and consciously steering it  • Why returning to your path is one of the most powerful skills you can develop

Episode web page: Episode summary: In this episode of Insights Unlocked, Nathan Isaacs sits down with Bansi Mehta, founder and CEO of Koru UX, to explore how product and UX teams can design more thoughtful, trustworthy AI experiences using her Sense, Shape, Steer framework. As organizations race to incorporate AI into products and workflows, Bansi explains why many teams fall into the trap of starting with the technology instead of the user problem. She shares practical guidance for slowing down, identifying meaningful AI opportunities, and balancing automation with human oversight—especially in complex enterprise and healthcare environments. Bansi walks through each phase of the framework, from understanding user needs and AI constraints in the “Sense” phase, to prototyping AI behaviors in “Shape,” to continuously evaluating trust, usefulness, and adoption in “Steer.” Along the way, she discusses why transparency alone doesn't guarantee trust, how AI products require ongoing tuning after launch, and why successful AI experiences depend as much on psychology and workflow design as they do on model accuracy. The conversation also explores the challenges product teams face under pressure to “add AI,” the risks of feature creep, and why teams should treat AI implementation as an evolving feedback loop rather than a one-time release. You'll learn: Why AI initiatives often fail when teams start with the solution instead of the problem How the Sense, Shape, Steer framework helps teams design human-centered AI experiences The importance of defining user needs, constraints, and guardrails before building AI features How to determine when AI should automate tasks versus assist humans Why trust and perceived usefulness matter more than raw AI accuracy How continuous feedback and iteration shape successful AI adoption The role of transparency, oversight, and user psychology in AI product design Why enterprise and healthcare AI experiences require careful workflow and risk management Resources and links: Bansi Mehta on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/bansi-mehta/) Koru UX (https://www.koruux.com/) Sense, Shape, Steer framework article and video (https://www.koruux.com/ux-for-ai-training/) Nathan Isaacs on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathanisaacs/) Learn more about Insights Unlocked: (https://www.usertesting.com/podcast)

Brandy Lynn Hall was a 32-year-old firefighter and mother of two from Brevard County, Florida, who vanished on the evening of August 17th, 2006, after leaving her volunteer fire station in Malabar. The next day, her prized green pickup truck was found deliberately submerged in a nearby pond with a significant amount of her blood inside but no trace of Brandy herself. As time went on, scattered personal items surfaced miles away, but no body, no clear timeline, and no definitive suspect ever emerged. Despite connections to her husband's recent drug case, a long-term affair with a fellow firefighter, and a series of investigative missteps, Brandy's disappearance remains one of Florida's most mystifying unsolved cases.  Try our coffee! - www.CriminalCoffeeCo.com Become a Patreon member -- > https://www.patreon.com/CrimeWeekly Shop for your Crime Weekly gear here --> https://crimeweeklypodcast.com/shop Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/CrimeWeeklyPodcast Website: CrimeWeeklyPodcast.com Instagram: @CrimeWeeklyPod Twitter: @CrimeWeeklyPod Facebook: @CrimeWeeklyPod Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Sarah Monroe: Hi. This is Sarah Monroe in Chicago, and I'm a benefits procurement leader. And I'm curious why you think so few executives take proactive bold action in health benefits strategy given the magnitude of opportunity. Stacey: Isn't that a great question? For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Okay … so, last week we did an Ask Me Anything episode with Lee Lewis (EP508) where we answered this exact same question Sarah just asked from the standpoint of a CEO (chief executive officer). This week, we're taking the same question but from the standpoint of a CFO (chief finance officer) and/or the finance team writ large. And this week we're going through a very crisp roadmap for how to move forward toward proactive bold action in alignment with said CFO/finance team. This roadmap, though, since we are talking about finance folks here, it does double duty setting up the hardcore why—as in, Why should finance wish to upgrade benefits? Why get away from being kind of complacent and maybe a passive price taker? I mean, consider Step 1 of the roadmap that we're gonna cover here in a moment. Step 1 is to recommend that the finance team set their next-year and out-year forecasts at an accurate, greater than 7.7% trend. You might be able to see how that will get a finance team to find their why pretty quick. Oh, was that a spoiler of what's to come? Why, yes, it was. My guest today, Patrick Nelli, is currently the CEO of Aligned Marketplace, which has a really cool premise based on the power of advanced primary care. Check them out. Patrick Nelli is also a former CFO. So, yeah … you can see why he'd be a really great guest to take us through this roadmap for how folks at a plan sponsor not in finance can align with finance to move forward toward a health plan that works better and costs less. So, without further ado, here's Patrick's roadmap. But, for sure, listen to Patrick explain it. The points that he makes and the details that he brings up are both helpful and also really thought provoking. Step 1: Stop the renewal surprise. Engage with CFO finance teams and take in the advice of John Quinn from episode 493 and Lee Lewis (EP508) from last week. This is an ongoing engagement-type engagement, not a "see ya right before renewal" thing. Step 2: Confront an accurate trend. Set year-over-year trend accurately. As just stated a minute ago, this trend is not CPI (the consumer price index). Trend will be two to three points minimum above CPI, which is gonna be in the 7.7% range or higher for reasons that Patrick will lay out coming up here. When you speak in finance talk like this and forecast these out-years accurately, the why for taking bold action becomes really crystal clear. The status quo is financially untenable. Here's a link, by the way, to a page that Patrick gave me that covers this #2 forecasting step. Step 3: Offer a win-win alternative to the status quo. So, make it clear that this high estimated trend is only accurate if—and this is the important part here—if we stick with the status quo. It is possible to create an actually better plan that is more affordable and better for everybody. I will say this Step 3 is maybe a little bit more fraught than I had previously considered. Go back and listen to the show last week with Lee Lewis (EP508) for more of a deep dive into this Step 3 in the roadmap. Step 4: Lean into proven strategies that have been shown time after time to bend said cost curve and improve the health of employees, such as, again, advanced primary care. How many times does this need to come up? Step 5: Align your incentives and also your safeguards. So, look, if you decide to implement a model like advanced primary care, you gotta ensure that the payment model actually incents the behavior you want to see. You gotta think that through. There is a pachinko machine in the healthcare industry and a pachinko effect of incentives. So, know what they are and then put up safeguards and backstops to prevent unintended consequences if you know that the incentives are, in fact, misaligned. Step 6: Optimize via your contracting, which includes direct contracting. So, once you consider the incentives and figure out what you gotta watch out for, optimize contracts accordingly. And often that means finding ways to direct contract with independent practices such as primary care practices. Listen to that episode from two or three weeks ago with Ryan Jacobs (EP504), which is one half-hour fully getting into what the perverse incentives that just batter the premise of primary care if you don't take them on board. So, that's Step 6 of the roadmap. Optimize contracting, maybe direct contract. Step 7: Steer and tier. Steer and tier, especially for rising risk and/or to make sure employees get the highest value. In other words, risk stratify and disproportionately engage those with rising risk. Steer and tier them to high-value provider organizations. And look, as I said in episode 507, define value and then demand it. Steer and tier away from wildly expensive organizations who may not perform at the level that you're looking for. Is that easy? No. Can you start with, for example, advanced primary care organizations with a clear mandate who to refer to? Yes. This podcast is sponsored by Aventria Health Group.
