Today we're examining the evolution of asset management and financial advisory services. As technology transforms how we invest and manage wealth, we're exploring the critical balance between innovation and human expertise. We'll discuss how disruption in the advisory space creates new opportunities for clients and advisors alike, why personal relationships remain essential even as AI expands, and how progressive firms are reimagining compensation models. We'll also look at the hybrid approach resonating with next-gen clients who want both self-directed tools and personalized guidance. Joining me to explore these topics are Steven Woods, CEO and Founder of Stirlingshire, and Jim Webb, VP of Investments. Their firm is working to remake the asset management model for both clients and advisors. Today, we'll hear about their non-traditional approach to wealth management, how they're balancing technology with the human touch, and why this matters for both financial professionals and their clients. The Big Ideas: Challenging the Traditional Asset Management Fee Structure: Stirlingshire allows advisors to keep 100% of asset management fees and commissions with zero expenses. This flips the traditional model where firms take substantial cuts from advisor earnings, creating better economics for both clients and advisors. The "Advice on Demand" Innovation: Stirlingshire offers a hybrid model between self-directed investing and full management. Clients can self-direct at zero commission but access professional advisors when needed, with advisors only getting paid when their specific recommendations result in profits. Technology-Enabled Compliance and Remote Work: By embedding compliance directly into their technology systems, Stirlingshire eliminates the need for physical offices and reduces compliance staffing. This automation significantly reduces overhead costs while increasing advisor flexibility. AI as an Efficiency Tool, Not a Replacement: Rather than replacing human advisors, Stirlingshire uses AI to make them more efficient. Their AI tools quickly analyze portfolios and provide market context, saving advisors time without making actual investment decisions. Disrupting the Industry to Drive Broader Change: Stirlingshire aims to force change across the entire financial advisory industry, similar to how Robinhood disrupted commission structures. Their goal is to push other independent firms toward more advisor-friendly compensation models by demonstrating a successful alternative approach.

In der unserer ersten Folge berichten wir über einen verurteilten Mörder. Steven Michael Woods wurde im Jahr 2002 für zweifachen Mordes zum Tode verurteilt und 2011 hingerichtet. Obwohl es berechtigte Zweifel an einer Tatbeteiligung gab, wurde Stevens Fall nie neu aufgerollt und das Urteil vollstreckt. Marcus Rhodes, welcher die Morde an Bethena Brosz und Ronald Whitehead gestand, verbüsst eine Lebenslange Freiheitsstrafe.

In this seventh episode of Executive HRD, the new podcast series from the University of Houston, we focus on data and how students in the program learn about the critical role that data plays in the day-to-day work of HRD professionals. To do this, we meet faculty members as well as graduates of the program to look into why data is such an important topic for HRD, how the program helps HRD professionals to overcome a wariness of data and to then use existing data within an organization as well as generate new data, to then communicate data to employees, stakeholders, and decision makers, and how underpinning this is a new mindset or attitude about data. We also take a look at the benefits that flow from leveraging data. Guests featured in the episode are: Dovie Crouse, Adan Morales, Daiane Polesello, Manny Rodriguez, Tracie Shavrnoch, Brittany Smith, Consuelo Waight, and Steven Woods.For more information on the University of Houston's Executive Master's in HRD, visit https://uh.edu/technology/programs/graduate/executive-human-resource-development/

In this fourth episode of Executive HRD, the new podcast series from the University of Houston, we take a more-focused look at a key aspect of the program's design: that of cohorts and the idea that students go through the program together in a small cohort, and we answer the question “How do COHORTS impact 'Becoming'?” To do this, we meet seven current and former students to hear how this cohort experience differs from more traditional approaches to Master's programs and the benefits that flow from going through a program in a small group. We also hear from the Program Manager for the Executive Master's about how the student cohort experience creates something special that becomes a second family.Guests featured in the episode are: Winsten Jose, Anh Lee, Ed Monsivais, Brittany Smith, Jae Thompson, Abbie Tujillo, Shironda White, and Steven Woods.For more information on the University of Houston's Executive Master's in HRD, visit https://uh.edu/technology/programs/graduate/executive-human-resource-development/

In addition, we hear from Dr. Consuelo Waight, Director of the Executive Master's, about the results of studies into the program's benefits.

Digestion and satiety Together, the stomach and intestines are known as the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The food you eat passes into this digestive system, where it is processed both mechanically and chemically until it is broken down into small, easily-absorbed fragments. It is here that carbohydrates are disassembled into simple sugars such as glucose and fructose, most fats are dismantled into fatty acids and monoacylglycerols, and proteins are pulled apart to become amino acids. Your body then absorbs these basic nutritional units, along with any micronutrients that are present, such as vitamins and minerals. The whole operation of digestion is regulated by signals passing to and fro along the pathways of your enteric nervous system, as well as various hormonal and other chemical signals produced by cells lodged in the lining of your gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal satiety signals. Gastrointestinal peptides are synthesized in certain areas of your brain, as well as being manufactured in your GI tract. Steven Woods, doctor of Physiology, Biophysics and Experimental Psychology in the USA writes, “. . . when food is eaten, it interacts with receptors lining the stomach and intestine, causing the release of peptides and other factors that coordinate the process of digestion with the particular food being consumed. Some of the peptides provide a signal to the nervous system, and as the integrated signal accumulates, it ultimately creates the sensation of fullness and contributes to cessation of eating. “Although dozens of enzymes, hormones, and other factors are secreted by the GI tract in response to food [inside the GI tract], only a handful are able to influence food intake directly. Most of these cause meals to terminate and hence are called satiety signals…” Satiety signals create a sensation of fullness and reduce your desire to eat.

Craig Elsten is joined once again by Steven Woods from the "Ben & Woods" radio program on 97.3 The Fan-SD in San Diego, to discuss one of their mutually loved shows, 'Dave' on FX.
