What happens when you lose your six-figure corporate job at 50 and decide to build a business from scratch instead of updating your resume?In this student spotlight, I'm sitting down with LaShall Dodson, who launched Dedicated Virtual Professional Services in March 2024 after a merger acquisition eliminated her Fortune 500 position. In her first year, she made $34,000. By the end of year two? $226,000.LaShall breaks a LOT of the Brandi rules (she doesn't niche down, she runs a full agency with a team of six, and she manages her clients with manila folders), but she's proof that there's more than one way to build a wildly successful service business.In this episode, we're talking about:Going from corporate director to service provider and the mindset shifts that come with itWhy her first year was slow and the mistake that held her back from landing clients soonerHitting a $23K month, then dropping back down, and what she did about itHow joining Strategist Society helped her close out the year at $226KThe real talk on taxes, retirement, and getting your financial house in order as you scaleWhy she manages 17+ retainer clients with physical folders (and why that's actually okay for now)The simple daily habits that moved the needle more than any fancy strategyWhy women sharing their numbers matters more than you thinkWhether you're transitioning from corporate, in your first year of business, or trying to break through to consistent $20K+ months, LaShall's story is going to fire you up.Resources & Links:DM me "STRATEGIST" on Instagram: https://instagram.com/brandimowlesReady to scale past $10K months?

Grant writing is one of the most misunderstood roles in the non-profit sector, and that misunderstanding may be costing your organization serious money. In this episode of Real Talk for Real Fundraisers, Jeff Schreifels is joined by Holly Rustick, a grant strategist with more than 20 years of experience, author of four books, and the founder of a movement that has helped organizations raise over $266 million in grant funding. Whether you're a fundraising leader trying to diversify revenue, a major gift officer curious about how grants can support your donor strategy, or someone considering a career in grants, this conversation challenges nearly everything you think you know about “grant writing.” Jeff and Holly unpack why the title “grant writer” is outdated, what non-profits consistently get wrong when they hire for this role, and why there is still significant grant money available in 2026. They also explore how grant strategy connects directly to program design, leadership, and long-term sustainability, not just proposals and deadlines. This episode is a practical, paradigm-shifting conversation designed to help organizations stop leaving money on the table and start approaching grants as a strategic, team-wide opportunity rather than a siloed task. Show Highlights: In this episode, you'll learn about… Why the term “grant writer” is outdated, what non-profits should be hiring for instead, and how that shift changes funding outcomes The real pros and cons of hiring an in-house grant professional versus working with a freelance grant strategist (and what most organizations overlook) Why “grant success rate” is the wrong question to ask, and what actually predicts long-term grant funding success How grant strategy supports stronger programs, aligns with major gifts work, and why there is still significant grant money available in 2026 Want to connect with Holly or get access to resources she mentioned during this talk?

Is there something you've experienced that was so painful, you haven't been able to fully forgive?Living on this earth opens us up to ample opportunities tobe hurt, betrayed and even victimized. We all have had varying degrees of emotional, physical, sexual and spiritual pain, with the damage ranging from mild to life-altering, and devastating. The bigger the nightmare event in our lives, the harder it can be to forgive the perpetrators. We by nature maywant revenge, or to make our offenders "pay" and can hold onto anger, rage and bitterness knowingly or even unknowingly. We can't fully forgive in and of ourselves, without God.Fortunately, we serve a God that is well aware of our earthly struggles with forgiveness. God is not standing off in a corner of the room, judging us for our frail, and fragile hearts that war with what feels like letting someone off the hook. God, in His perfect love, has provided ways to walk through the forgiveness journey. Listen in today as Tiffany Jo Bakerspeaks with Mark Sowersby, the author of Forgiving the Nightmare which discusses the hidden hell that God brought him out of, and how he was able to forgive his abuser and the incredible freedom that was waiting for him on the other side.Listen in for:Why unforgiveness opens the door to satan's attacksHow God is waiting to walk you through the forgiveness journeyWays you can discover that you are truly forgiving and healingFavorite Quotes:"I didn't start this story or testimony by seeking forgiveness, I started it by seeking the Lord, and the Lord would bring me toforgiveness." - Mark Sowersby"It was God's words that became sweeter, and louder than my abuser's words." - Mark Sowersby"Forgiveness comes in waves, and seasons." - Mark SowersbyFavorite Scripture:"If you forgive others when they sin against you, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive them, your sins will not be forgiven." - Matthew 6:14-15To learn more about Mark Sowersby, his ministry and all ofhis resources, please visit http://www.forgivingthenightmare.com. *Want timely words, resources, and episodes delivered rightto your inbox to help you fuel and fulfill your faith journey?

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for January 30, 2026. 0:30 For decades, Chick-fil-A wasn’t just fast food — it was a cultural symbol, known for Christian values, closed Sundays, and a service-first mindset that set it apart from every other national brand. But a new article is raising questions about whether that identity has quietly changed. From shifts in charitable giving and accusations of abandoning Christian organizations, to debates over social media messaging, corporate neutrality, and ideological boycotts, we dig into what’s real, what’s rumor, and what actually matters to everyday customers. Is Chick-fil-A still the same company millions trusted — or is this another example of politics creeping into business? And more importantly, should consumers care as long as the chicken is good and the business isn’t hostile to their values? This conversation tackles faith, free markets, merit, cancel culture, and the growing pressure on companies to pick a side. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. Reporter and former CNN anchor Don Lemon was arrested by federal authorities.He was part of a group of people who invaded a Christian Church service two weekends ago as part of the anti-ICE demonstrations in Minneapolis, Minnesota. President Trump has announced who he plans on naming as the next head of the Federal Reserve.Trump named Kevin Warsh to be the next Fed Chair. A federal Judge has dismissed murder charges against Luigi Mangione.Mangione is accused of killing United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, shooting him from behind on the sidewalk just outside a hotel in Manhattan. 12:30 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 We react to an unconscionable move by Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, who has reportedly sent her top diplomat to the highest levels of the U.S. government — not to offer cooperation, but to demand that the United States stop targeting Mexican drug cartels. Instead of proposing joint operations to crush fentanyl trafficking or dismantle criminal empires, Sheinbaum’s priority appears to be protecting cartels from U.S. action. We dive into cartel violence, corruption, and control over entire regions of Mexico, while questioning whether the Mexican government is unwilling or simply unable to confront them. 16:00 Is Ashley Tisdale a victim of a toxic Hollywood mom clique — or is this just mean-girl drama with a grown-up twist? American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson weigh in on the actress’s viral op-ed claiming she was iced out by a celebrity mom group in California. From social media oversharing and jealousy to the dangers of calling out friend groups publicly, the conversation explores whether speaking out actually reveals more about the accuser than the accused. With stories every mom can relate to, we break down mom group dynamics, celebrity cliques, and why “bowing out gracefully” may be the wisest move — especially when kids, schools, and long-term relationships are involved. This candid discussion tackles toxic mom culture, Hollywood parenting drama, and the real-world consequences of airing friendship grievances online. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 We break down a dramatic escalation in U.S. foreign policy as the Trump administration moves to effectively cut off oil money flowing from Venezuela and Mexico to communist Cuba. With sanctions finally being enforced, “ghost ships” carrying illegal Venezuelan oil are being seized, oil deliveries are drying up, and Cuba’s energy lifeline is collapsing. We connect the dots between Nicolás Maduro, the Cuban regime, and broader threats to U.S. national security, including terrorism and regional instability. Halted shipments from Mexico under U.S. pressure and energy companies pulling out of Cuba are part of a much larger strategy to dismantle hostile regimes in Venezuela, Cuba, and even Iran — and signals that America is no longer looking the other way. 25:30 A longtime Democrat strategist is now delivering a warning that has the Left fuming — and we can’t help but laugh. Rui Teixeira, author of Demographics Is Destiny, says the permanent Democrat majority he once predicted is collapsing, and unless Democrats radically change course, they’re headed for permanent minority status. His solution? Seven “realism” principles that sound a whole lot like Republican policy positions. From energy and economic growth to border security, merit over DEI, biological reality, and even patriotism, we down why Teixeira’s prescriptions are completely incompatible with today’s Democrat Party. And we ask the obvious question: if winning requires Democrats to believe everything Republicans already do, why have a Democrat Party at all? 32:00 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 The Democratic Party should take a page straight out of Seinfeld. Using George Costanza’s famous “do the opposite” philosophy, we make the case that every major Democrat instinct — on crime, border security, energy policy, culture, and government spending — has produced the exact opposite of what was promised. Compassion becomes chaos, equity breeds resentment, and progress leads to decline. Tying the analogy to recent warnings from Democrat strategist Rui Teixeira, the we explore whether Democrats could actually win again by abandoning their failed instincts and embracing the opposite approach. 35:30 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? From ICE chaos and AI images in Senate, to truly ridiculous stories involving Bruce Springsteen, kangaroos, and a “doomsday clock set to infinity," can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio. 39:30 We reflect on the life and legacy of legendary Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz, following news that he has entered hospice care. More than a Hall of Fame football coach, Holtz was a mentor, a man of faith, and a relentless advocate for discipline, accountability, and personal responsibility. Drawing from personal encounters with him, the conversation highlights how Holtz focused on building men of character first — believing that winning followed naturally. It’s a heartfelt tribute to a leader who shaped generations far beyond the football field and a reminder of how rare and necessary moral clarity and unapologetic leadership are in today’s culture. 41:30 And we finish off with some words of wisdom about long life that will make you say, "Whoa!"

On this episode 191 of the Disruption Now podcast:What happens when an algorithm knows more about your health than your doctor ever will? When AI can process threats faster than any human operator? When China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea are probing our systems 24/7?Dr. Richard Harknett has spent 30+ years answering these questions at the highest levels. As the first Scholar-in-Residence at US Cyber Command and NSA, a key architect of the US Cybersecurity Strategy 2023, and Fulbright Professor in Cyber Studies at Oxford, he's one of the few people who's seen how cyber threats actually unfold—and what we're doing (or not doing) about them.In this conversation, Richard breaks down:

We're in the middle of a trust recession. It's totally changing everything about buyer behavior and marketing in 2026. Selling feels slower and more personal.

A brilliant strategy doesn't fail because it's wrong. It fails because people don't own it and leaders won't focus. That's the energising premise of our conversation with Faris Aranki, founder of Shear Ghetto Consulting and former McKinsey advisor, who breaks down why IQ without EQ and FQ leaves great plans to die at sign‑off.We unpack Faris's simple but powerful multiplier: IQ × EQ × FQ. IQ is the sharp idea. EQ is your ability to read the room, adapt your message, and turn passive stakeholders into active owners. FQ is focused prioritisation that protects momentum when the calendar floods and politics bite. Faris shares the story of opening a C‑suite presentation with jokes, losing credibility in seconds, and the rewiring that followed. From auditing talk‑time to flipping monologues into questions, he shows how to win trust by designing for receive, not broadcast.The episode gets practical fast. Learn how to personalise the same strategy for a CFO's numbers lens and a CMO's vision lens. Steal the “five degrees askew” technique to make leaders touch the plan so they claim it. See how Faris turns 200 pet projects into Pokémon‑style cards and uses gameplay to help boards cut down to the vital few. We explore ethical influence, feedback that lands, and why live conversations beat email chains for unblocking gnarly problems. On focus, we separate disciplined pivots from magpie syndrome and explain how compounding assets outperform constant novelty, especially in brand‑building and marketing.If you've ever watched a good idea stall in the boardroom, this is a field guide to making strategy stick.

Nonprofit financial leaders are being asked to do more with less, manage rising risk, and still advance mission with confidence. Dr. Stephanie Rose-Belcher, COO of JMT Consulting, provides a forward-looking conversation on FinTech forecasts and what nonprofit executives must be preparing for now.Dr. Rose-Belcher reframes finance as the operational backbone of nonprofit leadership, not a barrier. She opens by addressing cybersecurity, urging leaders to view it as a governance, compliance, and financial responsibility rather than an IT task. “This is not an IT issue. This is an everybody issue,” she explains, placing accountability squarely with executive leadership and boards. With donor data, financial systems, and integrated platforms increasingly interconnected, leaders must treat cyber readiness as an enterprise-wide business risk.From there, the discussion moves to platform strategy. Rather than promoting a one-size-fits-all solution, Dr. Rose-Belcher challenges nonprofit leaders to take ownership of their technology ecosystem. The responsibility, she explains, is not simply to buy tools, but to understand workflows, integrations, return on investment, and the operational change required to realize value. Finance leaders, often serving as what she calls “accidental technologists,” must either develop this fluency or intentionally bring in expert guidance.Predictive analytics emerges as a defining leadership capability for 2026. Dr. Rose-Belcher encourages nonprofit financial teams to move beyond static annual budgets toward rolling forecasts and scenario planning. By modeling funding shifts, cost changes, and operational risks throughout the year, finance teams can elevate their role from record-keeping to strategic decision support.Talent constraints also surface as a pressing leadership challenge. With fewer trained accountants entering the field and nonprofit compensation pressures persisting, leaders must focus on skill development, retention, and creative workforce pipelines. Dr. Rose-Belcher shares how JMT is investing in long-term intern programs to strengthen the sector as a whole.The episode closes with a powerful leadership message: finance teams must act as strategic partners and educators across the organization. “We consider finance the enabler of the mission, not the blocker,” Dr. Rose-Belcher notes—a mindset shift that can transform silos into shared stewardship.Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

What happens when cyber risk leaders stop speaking in acronyms and start telling stories? In this episode, host Jason Bradwell sits down with Jeffrey Wheatman, SVP of Cyber Risk Strategy at Black Kite and longtime cybersecurity evangelist, to talk about how to lead with problems, not products. From decades advising CISOs at Gartner to launching the panel show Third Party, Jeff shares what he's learned about building trust, breaking down "terminal uniqueness," and why vendors need to collaborate on educating the market instead of competing. If you care about cutting through noise in a saturated market, this conversation is packed with insights you can actually use. Jason and Jeff dive into why so many cybersecurity vendors fall into the trap of "terminal uniqueness" believing they're so different that they can't learn from anyone else. Jeff explains why this mindset kills effective marketing and how leading with the problem, not your product features, is the only way to break through. They explore why CISOs won't talk to sales teams (hint: it's not personal, it's about trust) and why the cybersecurity industry desperately needs more collaboration. Jeff makes a compelling case that we're at war with ransomware networks, yet vendors refuse to talk to each other about how to educate buyers. The conversation shifts to buyer awareness stages and where most marketing completely misses the mark. Jeff shares his framework for thinking about audiences beyond just problem-aware buyers, and why "hallway therapy" at conferences builds more trust than any keynote ever will. Jason asks Jeff how he'd spend $100K to build an audience (not a campaign), and Jeff's answer revolves around creating spaces for real conversation, which is exactly what led him to launch Third Party, a panel show tackling cybersecurity topics with both strategic and tactical depth. They wrap with Jeff's shoutouts to creators doing cyber content right and key takeaways for B2B marketers trying to build trust in technical markets. Whether you're a security vendor struggling to differentiate, a CISO trying to communicate risk to the board, or a B2B marketer in any technical space, Jeff's insights on problem-first storytelling and building genuine community will transform how you think about reaching your audience.

In this episode, we explore financial capacity through the lens of capital raising and leadership identity. I'm joined by capital-raising strategist Lauren Brychell, who breaks down why access to money is rarely the true constraint. Instead, it's often confidence, clarity, and the courage to be seen. Together, we unpack what actually holds entrepreneurs back from raising capital, how imposter syndrome quietly caps growth, and what it looks like to step into bigger opportunities without needing to have it all figured out first.

1047: What does it take to lead tech—and the enterprise—in 2026? In this episode of Technovation, we feature a panel from our October 2025 Metis Strategy Summit where Steven Norton speaks with three top executive recruiters: Craig Stephenson (Korn Ferry), Jamey Cummings (JM Search), and Scott Robbin (Heidrick & Struggles). Throughout the conversation, each recruiter gives their perspective on the evolving mandate of the CIO. The conversation covers: The convergence of data, security, digital, and operations under the CIO How talent strategy and succession planning are changing What makes a technology leader board-ready The rise (and ambiguity) of the Chief AI Officer Offshore workforce trends and leadership development

When Kevin Rubin arrived at Zscaler in May 2025, he joined an established organization following the retirement of the company's longtime CFO, taking responsibility for continuing the work of a finance leader who had already built a strong foundation. Rubin describes stepping into a business with scale, experienced leadership, and a customer base that included some of the world's largest enterprises, he tells us.In explaining what Zscaler does, Rubin walks through the company's core idea: zero trust. Traditional cybersecurity, he says, relied on network-centric “castles and moats,” requiring large amounts of equipment to connect people, applications, and data. Zscaler challenged that model by treating the internet as a “superhighway” and applying a principle of minimal access. If an employee wants to use Salesforce or email, Rubin explains, the system first authenticates the user and then limits access to only what that person is authorized to see, he tells us.Zscaler was founded in 2007 and went public in 2018, Rubin tells us. Today, roughly 40 percent of the Global 2000 and about 45 percent of the Fortune 500 use the company's platform. Rubin attributes that adoption to a model that delivers security with less overhead and infrastructure than traditional approaches, he tells us. At its core, he says, cybersecurity comes down to two problems: stopping malicious activity from entering the network and preventing sensitive data from leaving it.Reflecting on his first 100 days, Rubin says the transition was shaped by continuity and people. He describes a welcoming executive team and an organization already positioned for growth. Cybersecurity, he notes, remains a dynamic market, with new vulnerabilities constantly emerging, and staying ahead of those threats continues to define the work ahead, Rubin tells us.

What if we would invite Jesus into our yearly goal andplanning times? Most of us think about resolutions and goal-setting around this time of year. We look back at what we did and did not accomplish. We decide what worked well for the year and what did not. It's a good and healthy thing to look at the new year and set new goals. However, let's be honest, who is in charge and knows the ins and outs of the year and calendar we are creating? We need to ask Holy Spirit for His wisdom and His guidancein all things, but definitely including our yearly planning. There could be many things that God wants you to do for the following year and He knows what is in store. Listen in today as Tiffany Jo Baker speaks with Rhonda Slater, writer,founder and minister at Pierced By Love, as they discuss how you can prophesy out your calendar, month by month and upgrade your vision board!Listen in for:What the process is in prophesying out your yearHow you can learn to include Holy Spirit in yourplanningWhy it is so important to pray over yourscheduleHow to improve your vision boardFavorite quote:"Prophecy is at the foundation of the intimacy with theLord, all gifts are birthed out of a friendship with Jesus." - Rhonda SlaterFavorite Scripture:"Follow the way of love and eagerly desire gifts of theSpirit, especially prophecy.
