Episode 087 – Leading Through Chaos, Carrying the Burden, and Knowing When to Walk Away In this episode of the JP Dinnell Podcast, JP and Lucas deliver one of their most transparent and hard-hitting conversations yet — tackling what it means to lead when the burden gets heavy, the mission gets messy, and the relationships around you start shifting. Coming off a powerful FTX leadership training event, JP shares behind-the-scenes lessons on clarity under chaos, how most leaders fail when pressure hits, and why leadership isn't just about serving others — it's about protecting your standards, your team, and your time. They also dig into the hard truth about relationships: not everyone can go where you're going, and sometimes, leadership means cutting ties with people who don't align with your mission — even if they're good people.

Michael Gentile, strategic investor in the junior mining sector and co-founder of Bastion Asset Management, discusses the current state of the gold mining industry and its potential for mean reversion. He highlights that gold mining stocks are trading at depressed levels despite record-high gold prices, creating a compelling entry point for investors. Gentile notes that while gold prices have tripled since 2018, gold mining stocks have lagged behind, offering significant value. Gentile emphasizes the importance of investing in commodities during periods of low sentiment and depressed prices, as this setup often precedes substantial returns. He points to historical cycles where negative sentiment and undervaluation led to major rebounds in gold mining stocks. Gentile also underscores the strong fundamentals of the industry, including record margins and free cash flow generation, which he attributes to higher gold prices and stable costs. He contrasts the current market with past periods, such as 2015-2020, where similar conditions led to significant rallies in gold mining stocks. Gentile believes that the sector is poised for a rotation, driven by improving fundamentals and macroeconomic factors like central bank buying of gold and geopolitical uncertainties. He also notes that while tech stocks have outperformed gold mining stocks historically, the latter now offers a unique opportunity due to its undervaluation. Gentile advises investors to diversify their exposure to the sector through ETFs or baskets of producing companies before moving into higher-risk junior miners. He stresses patience and a long-term perspective, as building mines takes time and requires careful consideration of jurisdictional risks and infrastructure challenges. In conclusion, Gentile sees the gold mining sector as a multi-year tailwind driven by macroeconomic trends, including the repositioning of gold as a hedge against inflation and the US dollar's decline. He encourages investors to allocate at least 5-10% of their portfolios to gold or related equities to preserve wealth in uncertain times.

In this insightful episode, TJ Slattery of Crow's Nest Mindset Consulting shares strategies for healthcare practice owners who find themselves stuck "below deck" in their businesses. TJ explains how practitioners can transition from frantically managing day-to-day operations to gaining the strategic perspective needed for sustainable growth and leadership. Through practical advice and compelling metaphors, he offers a roadmap for escaping the "entrepreneurial island" that traps many healthcare business owners. Episode Highlights: The crow's nest metaphor: Why healthcare providers often find themselves "shoveling water below deck" instead of navigating strategically The challenge of transitioning from clinical excellence (where "never let them see you sweat" is valued) to business leadership (where vulnerability and delegation are crucial) Understanding your true hourly value and why tasks like "opening the mail" could be costing you thousands Building a holistic performance model that aligns financial goals with marketing, operations, and leadership Moving from "magical thinking" about growth to practical planning with measurable steps The three mindset blocks that prevent effective delegation: martyrdom, "I alone can fix it," and guilt How creating space for your team allows them to develop, flourish, and make your business stronger Memorable Quotes: "The death of every entrepreneur is you all become glorified managers. If you're doing this right, in a year from now, you're not the one getting your hands dirty - you're managing people and managing your managers." "Would you pay a bookkeeper $1,200 an hour to go through your books? That's what you're doing when you handle those tasks yourself instead of delegating." "Just because we can doesn't mean we should. How is a business owner to fulfill their mission and vision if they're not able to get up to that view and keep checking on it?" "A lot of people, whatever their background or industry is, never let them see you sweat. That is a teachable mindset that you can maneuver over. That is something you can loosen up and get better at." Guest Bio: TJ Slattery is the Founder and Strategic Advisor at Crow's Nest Mindset Consulting, where he helps small business owners scale their enterprises and achieve greater freedom in both professional and personal spheres. With 20 years of experience in entrepreneurship and small business operations, TJ brings a unique blend of practical expertise and strategic insight to his clients. A self-described "business plan tinkerer," TJ's approach stems from genuine curiosity and a collaborative drive to identify core challenges and implement effective solutions. His diverse background includes founding a pedicab service in Vail, running a handyman business in Denver, partnering in a London-based facilities management firm, and co-founding Zuni Street Brewing Company. TJ holds a bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Business Management from Miami University of Ohio and an MBA from the University of Denver. When not helping business owners climb to their own crow's nest for a better strategic view, this Denver resident with Midwestern roots enjoys music, gardening, home projects, traveling, skiing, and spending quality time with his dog, Bella.

(18:41) "A lot of people don't understand that the long isos, when you get fit enough, strong enough, resilient enough, they're actually recovery." (23:11) "Anything below 80% intensity, the brain sees as a different skill." (37:34) "But my back foot contact, because that's a long ground contact time, my back foot contact around the ankle is short duration." (39:02) "That's the problem with isometrics. Unless you've got a sort of a dynamometer or a force deck, You have no knowledge of results. So it's pretty boring and the brain switches off as such. But yeah, obviously I use different stuff. I use G Strength and Remaker and all those (to measure force)” (47:30) "And collisions are not going to be improved by doing concentric work. Collisions are going to be improved by doing eccentric and isometric work." (52:35 "If I have a knee-dominant bowler who's who takes a long time to get warm, who's who's fast twitch or their intermediate fibers do most of the work. They never get to their fast twitch fibers. So then a pre fatigue complex would be great for them. And they go really do a, do a set of 10 squats and then expect them to bowl. Yeah, it works. Do us do a 200 meter run and then expect them to do an explosive bowl. But have you tried that? That is such a great feeling." About Steffan Jones Steffan Jones is a globally renowned fast-bowling coach, celebrated for his innovative, science-driven approach to cricket performance. A former professional cricketer, Jones played as a fast-medium bowler for Somerset, Northamptonshire, Derbyshire, and Kent,

With rates of Alzheimer's and dementia rising steeply, especially among women, the conventional pharmaceutical model has largely failed in treating the brain. Functional Medicine takes a different systems-based, personalized approach—focusing on inflammation, metabolic health, and environmental exposures—which offers real hope for prevention and even reversal of cognitive decline. In this episode, I discuss, along with Dr. Heather Sandison, Dr. David Perlmutter, and Maria Shriver, why it is possible to reverse cognitive decline and the cutting-edge science of brain health and Alzheimer's prevention. Dr. Heather Sandison is the The New York Times bestselling author of Reversing Alzheimer's The New Toolkit to Improve Cognition and Protect Brain Health. As a renowned naturopathic doctor specializing in neurocognitive medicine, she's the founder of Solcere Health Clinic, San Diego's premier brain optimization clinic, and Marama, a residential program turning memory care into memory recovery. Dr. Sandison has dedicated her career to supporting those suffering with dementia and published her most recent clinical findings in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease. She's excited to shatter common misconceptions about Alzheimer's and share what she's learned about keeping your brain sharp at any age.

He is the author of Grain Brain and Drop Acid, among others. Dr. Perlmutter received his M.D. degree from the University of Miami School of Medicine where he was awarded the Leonard G. Rowntree Research Award. He serves as a member of the Editorial Board for the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease and has published extensively in peer-reviewed scientific journals including Archives of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and The Journal of Applied Nutrition. Shriver is a bestselling author, award-winning journalist, former First Lady of California, founder of the Women's Alzheimer's Movement, and Strategic Advisor on Women's Health and Alzheimer's at Cleveland Clinic. Shriver works to use her voice and platforms to advance some of our nation's most pressing issues affecting women and women's health. In November 2023, Shriver joined the President and the First Lady to announce the first-ever White House Initiative on Women's Health Research, an effort led by Dr. Biden and the White House Gender Policy Council, to galvanize the Federal government and the private and philanthropic sectors to spur innovation, unleash transformative investment to close research gaps, and improve women's health.

In this episode of The JP Dinnell Podcast, JP sits down with Father Stokes, a former high-earning finance professional who walked away from a six-figure career to pursue his calling in ministry. This conversation dives deep into faith, leadership, discipline, and the principles of Extreme Ownership—core values that resonate with leaders, warriors, and high achievers. Father Stokes shares how his background in finance gave him a unique perspective on leadership, accountability, and decision-making under pressure—skills that transferred directly into his role as a leader within the church. He breaks down the shocking realities of leadership in ministry, including uncovering corruption, handling difficult conversations, and staying disciplined in the face of adversity. The discussion also explores why faith and leadership are inseparable, how ego destroys leaders, and what it really means to serve others while maintaining strength and discipline. Drawing parallels to the military, Jiu-Jitsu, and business, JP and Father Stokes break down the key traits of effective leaders—whether you're running a company, leading a family, or stepping up in your community.

Is AI a job disruptor, or could it actually make construction more human? In this episode, Hari Vasudevan joins the conversation to explore the transformative impact of AI on safety enhancements, efficiency improvements, and fostering better collaboration across teams. We explore the 80/20 rule in construction, the potential of AI-driven safety metrics, and why true collaboration between field crews and office teams is the key to unlocking AI's full potential. Tune in for a fresh take on how technology isn't here to replace workers—it's here to empower them. Hari Vasudevan, PE, is a serial entrepreneur and engineer at the forefront of AI, utilities, and construction management. As Founder & CEO of KYRO Technologies and Think Power Solutions, he drives transformative advancements in construction, vegetation, utility, and field services. Beyond these corporate roles, Mr. Vasudevan serves as Vice Chair & Strategic Advisor for the Edison Electric Institute's Transmission Subject Area Committee, shaping the future of technology and infrastructure. He holds bachelor's and master's degrees in civil engineering, along with professional engineering licensure in multiple states. TODD TAKES Work Smarter, Not Harder with the 80/20 Rule: In construction, a few key processes drive the majority of outcomes. AI can help identify and optimize those high-impact areas—like making sure project setups are done right from the start, so invoicing, cash flow, and overall efficiency don't take a hit. When used strategically, AI isn't just a nice-to-have; it's a game-changer for profitability. AI Can Actually Make Construction More Human: There's a common fear that AI will replace jobs, but in reality, it can make them safer and more sustainable. By tracking things like long work hours, frequent travel, and risky jobsite behaviors, AI can flag potential safety issues before they become real problems. It can even help ensure workers aren't burning out by nudging project managers to give them a much-needed break. AI isn't about replacing people—it's about protecting and empowering them. Collaboration is the Secret Sauce for AI Success: AI only works if everyone—field teams, project managers, and the office staff—are on the same page. The reality is, field crews care about getting the job done, while office teams focus on financials and reporting. AI can help bridge that gap by making data entry easier, translating real-time updates across different teams, and ensuring everyone has the right info when they need it. When AI is built with true collaboration in mind, it stops being a headache and starts being a real solution. Thanks for listening!
