What if the biggest bottleneck in your commerce strategy isn't the strategy itself, but the time it takes your team to actually perform the actions to execute it?Agility requires not just having the right insights, but also the operational capacity to act on them at the speed the market demands.Today, we're going to talk about a critical bottleneck many brands face: the delay between data-driven insight and real-world execution. Commerce teams are often drowning in data but struggle with the manual, time-consuming work of implementing changes, whether it's updating product pages or optimizing media spend. This has led to a major shift, where brands are looking beyond traditional agency models and toward a new paradigm of 'agentic AI'—using automated agents to handle execution, freeing up human experts to focus on what they do best: strategy.We are here at eTail Palm Springs, and to help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Himanshu Jain, Co-Founder and Head of Product, and Bill Schneider, VP Product Marketing at CommerceIQ.

Segment 1 • A coalition of liberal theologians claims democracy is collapsing and urges Christians to “resist”. • Todd unpacks the irony of condemning “Christian nationalism” while using faith to pressure government policy. • The emotional language sounds righteous on the surface—but once you slow it down, does it actually hold up? Segment 2 • “Every person bears God's image”—but does that automatically determine public policy? • Todd challenges the logic of using biblical truths to justify specific political outcomes without defining terms. • A powerful persuasion tactic is exposed: overwhelm your opponent so disagreement makes you look cruel. Segment 3 • A prominent conservative Baptist leader converts to Roman Catholicism—how does someone go from “grace alone” to a works-based system? • The deep psychological pull of tradition, history, and apostolic lineage. • Why parents must ground their children in the doctrine of the true, invisible Church before someone else defines their heritage for them. Segment 4 • A growing number of Christians now trust AI for spiritual advice more than their pastors. • Todd explains why AI doesn't give you truth—it often gives you what you want to hear. • Massive layoffs, sermon prep shortcuts, and the quiet erosion of pastoral authority—are we outsourcing discernment? ___ Thanks for listening!

Partner with our Meta ads experts: https://www.tiereleven.com/apply Are your ads “good enough” but still not getting anyone to fall in love? If your creative looks like vanilla ice cream, you're probably forcing Meta to guess, and that's basically running your business off a magic "8 ball."In this episode, we use ice cream flavors to explain what Meta's real creative diversification demands. We break down why “pink shirt vs blue shirt” isn't diversification, how the 25% (or more) difference rule actually plays out, and why you need multiple angles that feel like totally different flavors, not vanilla bean vs French vanilla.By the end of the episode, you'll know about building a simple “Rule of Six” creative system, why contribution matters more than last-click attribution, and how to stop turning off ads that are doing the heavy lifting in the background. Give this one a listen, then go build your Baskin-Robbins ad account.In this episode:- Are you running “vanilla” ads?- Creating memorable ads that convert- Meta's creative diversification playbook- Hook rate vs conversions- Contribution vs attribution- The rule of six for Meta ads- Why you need a real source of truthMentioned in the Episode:Partner with our Meta ads experts: https://www.tiereleven.com/apply Tier 11's Data Suite: https://www.tiereleven.com/what-we-do/data-suite Previous Episode on Pausing Ads: https://perpetualtraffic.com/podcast/episode-743-stop-pausing-winning-ads-andromeda-ad-strategy-that-changes-everything/ Ice Cream Place in New Zealand: https://www.patagoniachocolates.co.nz/pages/ice-cream-flavours Previous Episode with John Moran: https://perpetualtraffic.com/?s=john+moran Google Search Console: https://search.google.com/search-console Creative Diversification Playbook: https://perpetualtraffic.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Creative-Diversification-Playbook-Practitioner-Guidance.pdf Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel:Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/perpetual-traffic/id1022441491 Follow and listen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/59lhtIWHw1XXsRmT5HBAuK Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@perpetual_traffic?sub_confirmation=1We Appreciate Your Support!Visit our website: https://perpetualtraffic.com/ Follow us on X: https://x.com/perpetualtraf Connect with Ralph Burns: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ralphburns Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ralphhburns/ Hire Tier11 - https://www.tiereleven.com/apply-now Connect with Lauren Petrullo:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/laurenepetrullo/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurenpetrullo Consult Mongoose Media - https://mongoosemedia.us/ Mentioned in this episode:Head to www.perpetualtraffic.com to apply to be a sponsor of this showhttps://www.NEXTInsurance.com/perpetualWe're opening up sponsorship spots for Q1 and Q2!

The right room can change everything for your art business.✨ If you've ever felt that quiet pressure to donate your work to a charity event and hoped it might lead somewhere meaningful, I want you to know your generosity is not the problem. Your instinct to contribute is beautiful, and it deserves a strategy that honors both your heart and your brand. Over the years, I began to recognize a powerful connection between philanthropy and my most aligned collectors, and when I approached those opportunities with intention instead of obligation, everything felt clearer and more profitable. This conversation will help you see how charity can support your growth without compromising your positioning, and how to use these rooms to build real relationships with serious buyers.  

What if the biggest thing holding you back isn't your strategy… but your story? In this episode, Rory and AJ Vaden expose three silent lies that sabotage entrepreneurs, experts, and personal brands every single day. These aren't surface-level mindset clichés. These are the deeply embedded belief patterns that quietly keep talented people stuck in amateur mode while professionals pull ahead. You'll discover: Why "shiny object syndrome" is really a commitment problem How comparison fuels imposter syndrome (and how to shut it down) The surprising difference between amateurs and professionals Why fear of investing in your growth may be costing you everything Tactical ways to train your brain when you freeze on camera If you've ever thought: "Maybe I'm not good enough." "There must be a better way." "I can't afford to invest right now." "Why does everyone else look so confident on camera?" This episode is for you. Rory and AJ break down the real reason you feel stuck—and why it's not a lack of talent, intelligence, or opportunity. It's a belief issue. And beliefs can be rewritten. You'll walk away with practical tools to reset your mindset, strengthen your discipline, and finally commit at the level success requires. Because here's the truth: Professionals don't practice until they get it right. They practice until they can't get it wrong. If you're ready to stop dabbling and start dominating, press play.

Hey, friend. I'm pulling an amazing episode from the archives with over 430 episodes here on the Proof to Product podcast. There is a gold mine of information for you to help you grow your business, and, frankly, it can be hard to take it all in. Today's episode is a look back at an interview I did with Seth Godin who needs no introduction, but it would be a complete disservice to not share all of his accolades.  He's an author, entrepreneur, and most of all, a teacher.  In addition to launching one of the most popular blogs in the world, he has written 22 best-selling books, including The Dip, Linchpin, Purple Cow, Tribes, and This is Marketing, which was an instant bestseller in countries around the world.  His latest book, This is Strategy: Make Better Plans offers readers a practical framework for what an effective strategy looks like and feels like in today's fast-moving chaotic, and diverse world. This strategy allows readers to zoom out and see the bigger picture and understand the systems that are shaping their lives at work, in business, and day-to-day challenges.  Seth contends that by recognizing and mastering these systems and prioritizing long-term thinking over instant gratification, we can make smart, purposeful choices today that will lead to long-term growth. In my conversation with Seth, he shares his motivation for writing this book, the four elements that are critical for an effective strategy, and the importance of identifying and connecting with our smallest viable audience. On a personal note, when I started my product business in 2008, Seth's work was a major catalyst in helping me gain marketing momentum. He has a no-nonsense approach. He's concise and clear with his thoughts, and that resonates and gets your wheels turning, which you will hear in today's episode.

In this episode of Essential Ingredients, Justine Reichman speaks with Hillary Cohen and Sam Luu, co-founders of Everyday Action, a nonprofit dedicated to recovering food from the entertainment industry and redistributing it to those in need. They discuss their journey from working in the entertainment industry to founding Everyday Action, the challenges they faced, and the importance of community and collaboration in their mission. The conversation highlights the impact of their work, the growth of their organization, and their aspirations for the future.   Takeaways Everyday Action aims to inspire people to take action every day. The organization started as a response to food waste and insecurity in Los Angeles. Frustration can be a powerful motivator for positive change. Collaboration is key to the success of Everyday Action. The entrepreneurial journey requires discipline and adaptability. Mistakes are learning opportunities that contribute to growth. Community support is essential for nonprofit success. Everyday Action has fed over 110,000 people in a year. The organization is focused on building a sustainable community hub. Future aspirations include expanding their collaborative efforts with other nonprofits.    Sound bites "Nothing is too complicated." "We need each other and we need community." "We can use volunteers all days 24-7."   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Everyday Action 01:14 The Mission Behind Everyday Action 05:35 Turning Frustration into Action 09:09 The Entrepreneurial Journey 12:04 Collaboration and Community Building 15:25 Growth and Impact of Everyday Action 19:54 Evolving Operations and Strategies 25:18 The Role of Community and Support 26:49 Future Aspirations and Closing Thoughts

What if the real AI race in 2026 isn't about building bigger models, but about where decisions are made, how fast they happen, and whether they deliver measurable value? In this episode, I'm joined by John Bradshaw, Director of Cloud Computing Technology and Strategy at Akamai, to unpack his predictions for the next phase of cloud, AI inference, and the economics that will shape enterprise technology over the next 12 months. As organizations move beyond experimentation, John explains why the boardroom conversation has shifted from capability to return on investment, and how spiraling compute demands are forcing leaders to rethink the balance between performance, cost, and innovation. We explore why this new financial scrutiny is not slowing AI adoption, but refining it. John shares how inefficient GPU workflows, centralized inference, and poorly aligned architectures are being challenged by a more disciplined approach that pushes intelligence closer to the edge. This shift is not only about latency and performance. It is about building scalable, value-driven platforms that can support real-time decision-making, agentic workloads, and global user experiences without breaking traditional IT budgets. Trust is another major theme throughout our conversation. From the rise of everyday AI agents that quietly handle routine tasks to the growing importance of secure, resilient inference pipelines, John outlines how low-latency edge infrastructure, local processing, and hybrid cloud models will redefine reliability for both enterprises and consumers. We also discuss the smart home backlash following recent outages, and why the next generation of connected products will be designed to work even when the network does not. The episode also looks at the future of streaming, where consolidation, intelligent content delivery, and AI-driven personalization are reshaping both the user experience and the economics behind the platforms. Behind the scenes, orchestration is emerging as a defining capability, with multiple models and services working together to validate outputs, reduce hallucinations, and create more dependable AI systems. This is a conversation about moving from possibility to production, from experimentation to accountability, and from centralized architectures to distributed intelligence. So as AI becomes embedded in every workflow and every customer interaction, will the winners be the companies with the biggest models, or the ones that know exactly where their AI should live, how it should be orchestrated, and how it proves its value every single day?

Hello, March and welcome back to the Teaching Middle School ELA podcast.

This week on Catalyst, guest host Jod Kaftan sits down with designer and expert in human-centered AI, Shelley Evenson. Shelley shares her insights on how designers and teams can achieve human-AI flow and how to spot the warning signs that a team is drifting into the realm of AI slop. Jod and Shelley also discuss the need for change management in AI transformations and talk about who in an organization should own an AI transformation? Is it HR? Is it IT? According to Shelley it's a team endeavour that should start at the very top, with the CEO.Please note that the views expressed may not necessarily be those of NTT DATALinks: Shelley Evenson Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience Learn more about Launch by NTT DATASee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This might be the smartest small real estate portfolio strategy we've ever heard.  Today's guest has done the seemingly impossible—gotten rental properties for one dollar, used dirt to cover his down payments, and achieved the (to many investors, extinct) “infinite BRRRR” strategy. He did it all out of necessity—starting with a $30,000-per-year salary and a 90-hour-per-week job. Joe Meehan didn't have the resources to build a real estate portfolio—but he did it anyway. Seven years ago, Joe was coaching basketball on a grueling schedule, making a low income. He saved up all he could, bought his first house, and it all clicked—this is how he would get ahead. Just four years later, he quit his job. Seven years later, he has a cash-flowing rental portfolio of 11 units, and he works for himself. Joe shares the ingeniously simple strategies he's used to turn very little money into a safe, scalable, profitable rental property portfolio. No off-market deals, no sketchy financing—he even did it with eight and nine-percent interest rates. The cards were stacked against him, but he came out (strongly) on top. The best part? You can use the same strategies in 2026. In This Episode We Cover The genius strategy Joe used to get a rental property for ONE dollar (yes, really—$1!)

Our Chief Fixed Income Strategist Vishy Tirupattur and U.S. Head of Credit Strategy Vishwas Patkar discuss the implications of private credit's exposure to the software industry.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Vishy Tirupattur: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I am Vishy Tirupattur, Morgan Stanley's Chief Fixed Income Strategist. Vishwas Patkar: I'm Vishwas Patkar, Morgan Stanley's U.S. Head of Credit Strategy. Vishy Tirupattur: While potential disruption from AI has been a key driver for markets [in the] last few weeks, the focus of investor agenda has been in the software sector. On today's podcast, we will talk about software in the credit markets and its implications. It's Monday, March 2nd at 10am in New York. Vishwas, let's start by understanding how the exposure in software manifests in the credit markets. How does it compare to software, say, in the equity market? Vishwas Patkar: Yeah, so the software exposure in credit markets is large, and understandably that's why investors are closely watching what's happening with software in the equity market. But what's interesting and important for investors to note is the exposure in credit is very different from what it is in equities. So, for instance, a good chunk of exposure in the credit market is around private issuers. So, we estimate about 80 percent of companies are private in the whole sample set that we looked at. And that's largely a function of the fact that software is not a big part of the more liquid spaces like Investment Grade and High Yield. But it is heavily represented in the more opaque parts of the market, like leveraged loans, CLOs, and, you know, BDCs. So, our analysis found that about 25 percent of BDC portfolios are in software, closely followed by private credit CLOs. And leveraged loan market was about 16 percent. So, that's an important distinction to keep in mind versus the equity market. The second thing I would flag is – because the software sector grew a lot in the loan market through the LBO wave of 2020 and 2021, it has a weaker credit quality skew to it than the overall market. So about 50 percent of borrowers in the sector are rated B - or lower. So, that's the lowest rungs of the rating spectrum. Many of these software deals were underwritten with higher leverage than the broad market. And as a result of that you also have more front-loaded maturities in the sector, which brings the risks of refinancing, if some of this disruption persists. But Vishy, that's a nice segue to you. Over the past couple of years, you looked at the private credit market in depth and that's where I think the exposure we found is the highest in BDCs, you know, which is the public face of private credit. So, in your assessment, what is the risk of software to private credit, given all of the headlines that are popping up? Vishy Tirupattur: Public face of private credit – Vishwas, that's a great line. BDCs – business development corporations for those who are not familiar – are companies that invest in the debt of small and medium sized companies, sourced through non-bank channels. BDCs fund themselves through equity and debt issuance. So, if you look at the portfolios of BDCs to look at their exposure to software, there's a wide variation across the various BDC portfolios. What makes the assessment of these software risks in BDCs challenging is that many of these companies are private companies without the reporting obligations of public companies. So, no earnings reports, no 10-Ks or cues or broadly publicly available financials look at. So, in effect, these companies need to be re underwritten to evaluate which of these companies would be disrupted from AI; and which companies could actually benefit from AI and see their margins expand. So, in the context of BDCs, liability spreads are something we are watching closely. BDC liability spreads have widened but we think more needs to happen there. The clearing levels need to wait for the full resolution of the companies that benefit and that get hurt by disruption that is still awaited. So, we expect credit spreads of BDCs to remain volatile for some time to come. Vishwas Patkar: Okay. So, seems like this is a significant, or at least a non-trivial risk factor for credit markets, given the growth of the sector, leverage, the skew and quality. But Vishy, do you think this could be systemic for risk markets at large? Vishy Tirupattur: So, I do think that this is a significant risk, but I don't think it's a systemic risk. The amount of leverage in BDC is fairly small. About 2x is the kind of leverage. You compare that to the kind of leverage that existed in the financial system before the financial crisis – that's orders of magnitude smaller risk. And also the linkage to the banking system comes through the back leverage provided to the non-bank lenders. But this leverage is substantially risk remote with very high subordination levels. So, my conclusion here is this is a significant risk but not a systemic risk. So let me turn the same question to you, Vishwas. Taking on a sort of historical perspective as well as a macro perspective, how do you see this risk manifesting in the broader credit space? Vishwas Patkar: Yeah, so I would agree with you Vishy, that we need to see a valuation reset. We think spreads should go wider because of disruption concerns, even if they affect a relatively narrow part of the market. But a lot of that's happening against issuance that's rising. But I would say the risk of systemic concerns really emerging is relatively low. if you look at historical cycles where credit has been the weak link in the economy, those are typically characterized by a lot of corporate re-leveraging. So, think about the late 1990s or from 2004 to 2007 or the early 2000-teens. These are all cycles where corporates were being very aggressive, adding a lot of debt. And you know, when the economy slowed, credit became the source of some default and downgrade concerns. We haven't really seen that type of credit cycle play out at all in the past few years. If you look at corporate debt to GDP, for example, it's gone down each of the last five years. Balance sheet corporate leverage has been flat or actually gone lower in spots. M&A activity, which is usually a good indicator of corporate aggressiveness, still remains below trend. So, I think we have had a fairly restrained credit cycle where in place fundamentals are quite strong. And that's why I think the systemic contagion from any credit spread weakness, I think could be relatively muted. Vishy Tirupattur: So, the key takeaway from us is that software and credit is a significant risk but is not quite systemic risk. Thanks for listening.

For the first time in over a decade, I'm actively chasing status in multiple loyalty programs—and it's a major shift from my usual points strategy.   Historically, status hasn't been a focus for me beyond Hyatt Globalist. But this year, I'm pursuing top-tier or near top-tier status in four programs: Hyatt Globalist, Bilt Platinum, Air France Flying Blue Platinum, and American Airlines Platinum Pro. Listen in as I walk through why these specific statuses suddenly jumped to the top of my priority list, what benefits justify the effort required to earn them, and my exact plan for qualifying for each one.   I also share the four key questions to ask yourself before chasing any status, because the reality is that you don't need status to have a successful award travel experience. From understanding opportunity costs to accessing status benefits through credit cards instead, this episode covers how to evaluate whether pursuing status actually makes sense for your travel style and goals.   Whether you're considering your own status strategy for the year or feeling confident about not chasing status at all, this episode will help you think strategically about how loyalty program status fits into your points plan.   Get full show notes and transcript: https://pointmetofirstclass.com/2026-loyalty-status-strategy    Want to shape the show?

In this episode of Translating ADHD, Asher and Dusty discuss the crucial role of fun and joy as essential tools for managing ADHD. They explore how many people with ADHD fall into the trap of endless to-do lists and feel they must “earn” their fun, which leads to burnout, depletion, and a life spent in procrastination or the “dark playground” — a place of unproductive scrolling and disengagement. By prioritizing fun and incorporating playfulness into daily routines, individuals can create the mental capacity and motivation needed to tackle tasks more effectively. Dusty shares a personal story about transforming the mundane task of taking calcium pills into a joyful ritual, highlighting how small changes in aesthetics and mindset can make a significant difference. The hosts also introduce a framework called the "Forces of Fun," breaking down fun into four categories: create, consume, commune, and cavort. They emphasize the importance of making space for pure fun, even when it feels difficult due to executive dysfunction or burnout. Strategies such as pre-deciding activities or creating dopamine menus help overcome barriers to engaging in enjoyable activities. The episode concludes with a reminder that fun is a birthright and an essential part of self-care for people with ADHD—not a reward to be earned but a necessary part of living well.

Admission to music programs and conservatories is a specialized process that involves more steps than simply sending application material and essays to the admissions office. This week Megan is joined by Darren Sacks, a professional double bassist and music college admissions expert to discuss key aspects of music education and the audition preparation. Darren shares: the importance of early music lessons and private instruction quality participation in youth orchestras and summer festivals the significance of developing musical maturity, technical proficiency, and consistent practice systems guidance on selecting appropriate instructors and maintaining professional standards throughout the application process the significance of choosing appropriate pieces that showcase a student’s current level without being too challenging Darren discusses the importance of finding a balance between coaching and consulting when selecting a one-on-one music instructor for students, emphasizing the need for instructors to demonstrate and provide practical examples alongside guidance. He shared his approach of combining tough love with empathy to help students improve, using examples like helping a student win an all-states competition after an initial setback.

In this episode of the EVOQ Bike podcast, Brendan and Landry discuss the importance of raw power in cycling and debunk the myth that watts per kilogram (W/kg) is the ultimate metric for success. They delve into a study that follows U23 cyclists and reveals how raw power can be more critical than body weight for professional success. They also offer training tips to improve raw power, the significance of proper fueling, and maintaining a balanced body composition. Additionally, they stress the importance of focusing on watts rather than W/kg, particularly for young and amateur riders.Chapters:00:43 Welcome!00:53 The Myth of Watts per Kilo01:21 Member Shoutouts and Exclusive Content01:50 Discussion on Raw Power and Body Composition02:19 Study on U23 Riders and Pro Success04:10 Practical Advice for Riders09:23 The Role of Durability in Racing14:01 The Impact of Aerodynamics17:44 Strategies to Improve Raw Power18:41 Understanding Body Composition and Energy Deficit19:24 The Importance of Fueling for Performance20:05 Real-Life Examples of Proper Fueling21:44 The Role of Recovery in Training22:16 Long-Term Weight Management Strategies24:06 Balancing Power and Weight for Performance29:12 Personal Experiences and Practical Tips33:54 Advice for Young Athletes36:34 Final Thoughts and Resources

Struggling with impulsive behaviors and meltdowns? Discover the 5 secret micro habits that build self control in kids and how small daily shifts strengthen executive functioning and emotional regulation. With expertise in Regulation First Parenting™, Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge helps families decode dysregulation and build lasting calm. Self control isn't about stronger discipline or more motivation. It's a developmental brain skill built through regulated moments—not punishment. When the nervous system and executive functioning system work together, kids develop the ability to pause, delay gratification, and respond instead of react.It's not bad parenting—it's a dysregulated brain. In this episode, we unpack the 5 secret micro habits that build self control in kids and how small, daily shifts help children develop real self control—without power struggles.Why does my child lack self control even with consequences?If discipline alone worked, your child would already have self discipline.When parents describe a lack of self control, they're seeing:Impulsive behaviorsExplosive emotionsTrouble waiting or delaying gratificationAvoiding tasks that require focusSelf control depends on a regulated nervous system and strong executive functioning (including working memory, self talk, and emotional control). If either system is offline, your child simply cannot access the skill—yet.Pressure doesn't build capacity. It exposes the gap.
