In this Friday Field Notes episode, Ryan Michler delivers a direct and uncompromising message: success never happens by accident. He challenges listeners to confront the ways they may be drifting through life, reacting to circumstances rather than intentionally leading themselves. Ryan explores how comfort, avoidance, and distraction quietly compound into years of lost potential, and contrasts that with the strength and freedom created through discipline, structure, and brotherhood. This episode calls men to choose hardship on purpose, define their standards, and begin taking directional action immediately instead of waiting for motivation to arrive.

Jason Eich is a multi-location auto repair shop owner based in Evansville, Indiana. After spending more than two decades in a corporate career, Jason made an unexpected leap into independent auto repair ownership; a move that eventually led to operating multiple successful shops. Drawing from his background in leadership, discipline shaped by his time in the Marines, and hands-on experience scaling operations, Jason brings a grounded, real-world perspective on what it truly takes to grow an auto repair business.In this episode…Growth is often the goal for shop owners but knowing how to grow an auto repair business beyond a single location is where many hit a wall. Expansion isn't just about opening another shop or increasing car count. It requires a fundamental shift in leadership, mindset, and structure.Jason Eich explains that real growth begins when owners stop forcing the same systems everywhere and start building operations that fit their local markets. From customer loyalty and geography to staffing and traffic patterns, Jason shares why understanding market dynamics is critical when scaling an auto repair business.On this episode of Gain Traction, Mike Edge sits down with Jason Eich to unpack the transition from operator to owner. Jason outlines the leadership changes required to grow sustainably, why developing managers is non-negotiable, and how having hard conversations early creates clarity and accountability. His insights offer a clear roadmap for shop owners who want to grow faster without sacrificing culture or stability.Here's a glimpse of what you'll learn: [01:09] Jason Eich's background and path into auto repair ownership[04:23] How a casual conversation led to buying his first auto repair shop[07:33] What surprised Jason most about the auto repair industry[08:48] How Jason's Marine Corps experience shaped his leadership style[11:59] Why running a shop isn't always about fixing cars[13:52] Jason's perspective on right to repair and access to OEM data[17:25] How Jason approaches growth beyond two locations[20:03] The mindset shift from operator to business owner[22:48] The leadership principle Jason lives by[23:54] The best way to handle hard conversations as an ownerResources mentioned in this episode:Jason Eich LinkedInEich Brothers Automotive WebsiteDartt Automotive WebsiteTread PartnersGain Traction Podcast on YouTubeGain Traction Podcast WebsiteMike Edge on LinkedInQuotable Moments:“Growth doesn't mean being in every bay, it means building people you trust.”“Cars don't fix themselves, and neither do problems in your business.”“If you want to scale, you have to stop forcing one system everywhere.”“Leadership means owning the outcome and having the hard conversations.”“Structure and accountability are what make growth sustainable.”Action Steps:Evaluate your readiness to scale: Ask whether your shop can operate without you in the day-to-day.Build managers before expanding: Growth stalls quickly without leadership in place.Adapt systems to local markets: Geography, loyalty, and traffic patterns matter.Have hard conversations early: Clarity prevents bigger problems later.Shift from operator to owner mindset: Work on the business, not just in it.

What This Episode Is AboutIf your brain generates ideas faster than you can execute them, this conversation will make you feel seen. Sarah runs five businesses and has developed a systematic approach to managing what I call the "burden of creativity"—that relentless flow of inspiration that can fuel or derail you, depending on how you work with it.This isn't about picking one lane or shutting down your creative engine. It's about building frameworks that let you honor your ideas without drowning in them.Who This Episode Is ForFounders juggling multiple business ideas or revenue streamsCreatives who struggle with follow-through despite abundant inspirationConsultants and coaches who feel scattered across too many offersAnyone who's been shamed for having "too many interests."Serial entrepreneurs who want to build interconnected businesses without burning outThe Big IdeaHaving an ADHD brain means you're wired for abundant creativity. The challenge isn't generating ideas—it's knowing which ones deserve your energy and how to move them from concept to completion without burning out or abandoning ship halfway through.Sarah's approach: treat your ideas like they matter, but give them structure so they don't hijack your focus.What to Listen For The Reality of Being a Creative PolymathFor many ADHD entrepreneurs, being interested in multiple things isn't a distraction —it's how they're built. Sarah explains why being a polymath is actually an advantage in today's business landscape, as long as you set boundaries around what gets your attention.The "Catching Butterflies" System: Capture, Connect, Structure, Iterate, Express, ReflectSarah walks through her six-stage process for managing creative output. It starts with capturing every idea without judgment, then moves through connecting related concepts, building structure around the keepers, iterating on them, expressing them in the world, and reflecting on what worked. Simple in concept, powerful in practice.Using AI as Your Digital Thought PartnerBoth Sarah and I use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude) to externalize our thinking. Instead of letting ideas swirl in our heads, we dump them into our AI assistants to help us organize, connect dots, and build project folders. It's like having a patient colleague who never gets tired of your tangents.The 3D Jenga Model for Interconnected ProjectsRather than treating each business or project as a standalone tower that could topple, Sarah visualizes her work as a 3D Jenga structure. Each piece supports the others. When one idea doesn't work out, the whole thing doesn't collapse—the remaining pieces actually get stronger.Energy Management Over Time ManagementReflection isn't self-indulgence—it's how you build a feedback loop that keeps you moving forward. Regular check-ins about how you feel, what your vision is, and whether your projects still serve that vision help you stay aligned instead of spinning your...

In this Tax Tuesday episode, Anderson Advisors' Barley Bowler, CPA, and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle a wide range of listener questions covering everything from business structures to retirement planning. They discuss the pitfalls of investing in movie production under Section 1801, explain why commuting expenses aren't tax-deductible even for long-distance work arrangements, and clarify the new 1099-NEC reporting thresholds and the upcoming 1099-DA requirements for digital assets. Barley and Eliot break down Section 179 vehicle deductions and the advantages of heavy SUVs over luxury vehicles, explain the reasonable wage requirements and distribution strategies for S corporations, and provide guidance on structuring spec house construction businesses to minimize employment taxes. They also cover mark-to-market elections for traders, the tax consequences of below-market rent to friends or family, and the complications of placing a personal residence in an LLC. Tune in for expert advice on these topics and more! Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics:   "Any thoughts about investing in movie production for high-income earners?" - Section 1801 expires 2025, creates passive losses, not recommended for most. "I work for a local government agency in Cochise County, Arizona and live in Maricopa County, Arizona, approximately 215 miles apart. I commute in on Monday, stay in a hotel and leave on Thursday. I've been doing this every week since December of 2024. Is there a tax break deduction for this?" - No deduction available; this is considered commuting, not business travel. "Is the new 1099-NEC now starting after $2,500?" - Still $600 for 2025; increases to $2,000 in 2026 only. "Who needs to file this new 1099-DA digital asset form?" - Brokers must send to clients by February 15, 2026. "I'm a sole proprietor and would like to buy a BMW X7 to save the tax based on section 179. Is it covered?" - Yes, if over 6,000 pounds; 100% write-off available first year. "I'd like to know the proper ratio of distribution payments to salary within an S corporation." - One-third to 60% of net income is typical rule of thumb. "Can I pay myself quarterly out of my S corporation LLC?" - Yes, quarterly W-2 payments are acceptable and help avoid penalties. "What's the best way to structure a business to minimize taxes when building spec houses? I do the majority of the work on the houses, so it looks like a lot of profit on my labor, which is not good. I'm currently structured as a pass through LLC and purchase the house lots in a different LLC from my construction LLC." - Use S corporation for labor; sell land separately at capital gains rate. "Is it too late for a mark to market election for 2026?" - No, must file on 2025 return by April 15, 2026. "Is mark to market a good tax deduction?" - Only if trader status qualifies; creates ordinary losses on unrealized gains. "I'm renting to a friend for $300 a month. Fair market rent would be over $1,500. Any tax consequences?" - Deductions limited to income received; cannot create rental loss at all. "How can I have an LLC for my personal residence if the house is the residence of both my son and I as joint tenants?" - Possible but risks losing section 121 exclusion and homestead exemption.

Momentum often breaks down after progress begins. Structure loosens, focus drifts, and routines change before they are stable. Confidence rises while discipline quietly slips. Growth stalls not from lack of effort, but from misaligned habits and shifting priorities. Sustainable progress comes from protecting what works, maintaining simple standards, and staying grounded during success. When consistency stays intact, results continue to build without pressure, burnout, or self sabotage.

At our Longmont training event, Pastor Nate Morris explores the heart behind preaching and the practical movements that help us communicate Scripture faithfully. Opening with a story about waiting tables, Nate reminds us that preachers do not invent the meal. We carry what God has already prepared and deliver it with care. This session combines pastoral insight, clear structure, and encouragement for anyone who wants to handle God's word well.About Pastor Nate MorrisNate Morris is the lead pastor of Mountain Life Calvary Chapel, a multi location church serving Vail, Gypsum, and Glenwood Springs, Colorado. He and his wife Jen live in the Colorado mountains with their children Caleb, Zoe, and Josiah. Having grown up in the mountains himself, Nate has a deep passion to see mountain communities reached and transformed by the gospel.He hosts Truth and Love with Nate and Jen Morris and is a regular contributor to Mountain Life Church's Unscripted podcast. You can learn more at mountainlife.church, follow @natemorris1, or visit pastorn8.com.Speaking with the Weight of Scripture1 Peter 4:11 calls those who speak to speak as those delivering God's words. Nate anchors the room in this reminder: preaching is a sacred trust. Our role is not to improve the message but to carry it faithfully, just as a good waiter brings a prepared meal without dropping the plate.Two Questions That Shape Every SermonWhere am I taking them?Preaching needs a clear destination shaped by the passage itself.How do we get there?Listeners need a guided path. Structure is one of the ways we serve them well.Caring for Souls Through the WordNate highlights the preacher's pastoral task: understanding people's real needs and showing how the gospel addresses them. As Samuel Brengle observed, the truth in Jesus brings healing to every kind of spiritual condition. Preaching becomes an act of care as we discern and apply Scripture wisely.Five Movements That Help People Follow the Message1. IntroductionHelp listeners orient themselves to the theme and direction of the passage.2. NecessitationShow why the message matters and surface the tension the text resolves.3. ExpositionOpen the Scriptures carefully. Let the text drive the content.4. ApplicationInvite people to respond. Show what trust, obedience, or repentance looks like in daily life.5. InspirationLeave listeners with hope in Christ, not pressure to perform.Tools That Support Clear and Helpful DeliveryHumour, illustrations, vulnerability, inflection, and physical movement can all help the message connect, provided they serve the text rather than distract from it.Working Heartily, Depending FullyNate ends by reminding us that preaching is both labour and reliance.Colossians 3:23 calls us to work heartily for the Lord, while Augustine's well known line captures the balance: pray as though everything depends on God, work as though everything depends on you.For information about our upcoming training events visit ExpositorsCollective.com Join our private Facebook group to continue the conversation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ExpositorsCollective

In this episode, Michael sits down with Steve Tashjian, a world class high performance consultant with a deep background in elite sports. Steve's journey has taken him from physical therapy and performance coaching to high level consulting roles across the Premier League and the US men's national team during their World Cup run. His mission is simple and powerful: help individuals and teams excel in high pressure environments by applying the same systems, preparation, and mindset used at the top levels of global sport. Inside the Premier League Pressure Cooker Michael and Steve explore the intensity of the Premier League, a global powerhouse where fans live and breathe every match and where underperforming teams face immediate consequences through relegation. Michael draws a parallel between the world of professional football and the realities of modern business. Both are unforgiving. Both require consistent high performance. Both reward teams that are disciplined, adaptable, and built on strong systems. Steve reinforces that managing pressure is not a luxury, it is a necessity. Whether you are a Premier League striker or a CEO carrying payroll, the demands are similar. Pressure reveals your habits, exposes your preparation, and tests your ability to stay composed when everything is on the line. Turning Pressure Into a Growth Advantage Michael and Steve dive deep into what separates those who crumble under pressure from those who rise. Drawing from Steve's experience with the national team on the world stage, the lesson is clear: preparation and process win. When everything around you is chaotic, your systems and habits become your anchor. They discuss how organizations of all types can treat pressure as a growth opportunity. High achievers are not born for pressure, they train for it. They rehearse. They refine. They use adversity as data rather than judgment. Michael highlights that leaders who adopt this mindset build teams that are far more resilient and far more adaptable to change. Systems, Structure, and Leadership at Scale The conversation shifts to the backbone of any high performing environment: systems. Michael and Steve explore how elite sports teams like Everton Football Club create frameworks that guide decision making even in constantly changing conditions. When systems are well defined and widely understood, teams can move with speed and clarity, even when the stakes are high. Steve also speaks to the human side of leadership. Biases, emotions, and external pressures often influence decisions more than leaders realize. Great leaders build awareness around these blind spots. They collaborate intentionally. They take smart risks instead of reactive ones. Michael underscores that systems and leadership must coexist. Without systems, leaders get overwhelmed. Without leadership, systems fall flat.

We discuss how entity choices impact taxes, liability, and long-term growth, and why many business owners unknowingly limit themselves with the wrong setup.

Most business owners don't avoid structure because they don't need it—they avoid it because it forces honesty. In this episode, Simone pulls back the curtain on why burnout, underperformance, and constant firefighting are almost always symptoms of unclear expectations and avoided leadership. If your team can't step up and your business still depends on you for everything, this episode will show you exactly why—and what must change before 2026. A self-managing business isn't built through hustle or hope—it's built through clarity, standards, and performance leadership. This episode challenges the habits you've normalized and calls you into the CEO role your business actually needs. Key Takeaways Why entrepreneurs resist structure—and how avoidance keeps them stuck in burnout. The hidden connection between unclear expectations and doing everyone else's job. How lack of performance standards drives away A-players and protects mediocrity. Why avoiding feedback and accountability conversations erodes trust and culture. The real cost of waiting too long to address underperformance. Why "good enough" leadership creates bottlenecks instead of scale. The core components of a true CEO Operating System—and why they're non-negotiable for 2026. How AI supports structure and clarity without replacing leadership. If this episode made you realize your business is running on improvisation instead of intention, it's time to install a real operating system.

If you've been saying, “I just want to heal,” or “I just want to feel like myself again,” this episode is your loving wake-up call: those phrases are too vague to carry you where you want to go. Healing happens faster—and feels safer—when you get specific about what you're actually birthing next. In this episode, Lora opens with a powerful 4-minute “next-level you” practice designed to shift your energy from surviving to creating. Then she breaks down why “I just want to heal” often keeps you stuck—and how to replace it with clear, embodied direction. You'll learn how to define what healing means for you (peace of mind, confidence, boundaries, financial stability, emotional safety), how to create the structure that makes success almost inevitable, and how to stay flexible when life pivots. Plus, Lora shares a real-life story about preparing to attend a funeral where her husband's former affair partner may be present—and how conscious planning creates safety, connection, and dignity. Top 3 Takeaways The universe—and your nervous system—respond to specificity. “I want to heal” becomes powerful when you define what healing looks like in real life: fewer obsessive thoughts, better sleep, stronger boundaries, emotional regulation, self-trust. You don't have to control the outcome to direct your life. Some desires need “hard-no” boundaries; others need “surprise party energy” where you stay open to support arriving in unexpected forms. Structure creates success. Goals aren't just wishes—they're supported by plans: the right people, tools, rehearsed responses, and simple tracking that helps you notice progress (and adjust when something isn't working).   Favorite Quote “You are not supporting cast in your own life.

PROGRESSIVE ELITES AND CONSTITUTIONAL SUBVERSION Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Hansoncharacterizes progressive elites as "evolutionaries" who seek to bypass Constitutional checks like the Electoral Collegeand the Senate's structure because these systems no longer favor their political dominance. He warns that threats to "pack the Supreme Court" and the practice of ignoring treaty ratification processes are destroying the Founders' design, which was intended to slow down radical change. These efforts aim to replace the deliberative republican model with one that allows for rapid, majoritarian rule by coastal elites. NUMBER 5

Momentum often breaks down right after progress starts to feel real. Structure slips, focus softens, and habits lose edge. Comfort replaces intention. Growth stalls quietly, not from failure, but from easing off too soon. Staying aware during stable seasons keeps direction clear and energy consistent. Progress holds when standards stay steady and attention remains engaged even when things feel easier.

How to Write Catchy Titles, Descriptions, and High-Impact Headlines for your websites, email marketing, social media marketing, Pinterest SEO, and more with Favour Obasi-Ike | Sign up for exclusive SEO insights.Episode Summary:In this comprehensive episode + guide on crafting effective digital headlines, titles, and descriptions to boost online engagement. The speaker emphasizes that metadata acts as the essential context for content, serving as the primary factor that drives click-through rates across platforms like Google, YouTube, and LinkedIn. Strategic advice includes maintaining a title length of approximately 55 to 65 characters to avoid text truncation while maximizing visual impact. I also recommend using odd numbers, brackets, and power words to leverage psychological triggers that improve visibility and user trust. Finally, the discussion frames intentional copywriting as a vital tool for business owners to transform passive web traffic into active conversions and long-term brand authority.In high-level digital strategy, titles, descriptions, and headlines are not merely decorative—they serve as the essential "key frames" of metadata. This content architecture bridges the gap between raw information and audience discovery by providing the necessary context (Author, Host, Duration, and Intent) that search algorithms require to categorize an asset. By transforming raw content into searchable, high-value assets, a strategist ensures that the brand is prioritized within the user's search journey.Favour emphasizes that structured delivery and architectural integrity correlate directly to business results. If a title fails to establish immediate relevance, the conversion path is broken before it begins. Success in the current landscape requires a commitment to iterative improvement—ensuring the "next version" of a title or metadata set is systematically optimized based on data rather than intuition. This log details the tactical framework used by Favour, currently ranked #2 (We Don't PLAY!) on the FeedSpot Top 100 Marketing Podcasts (trailing only Gary Vaynerchuk), to drive visibility across SEO, PPC, and email ecosystems.Deep Dive: The Quantitative Science of Click-Through Rates (CTR)To maximize ROI, content creators must move beyond "gut feeling" and toward research-backed optimization. Using industry benchmarks from Orbit Media and Moz, we can calibrate headlines to meet the psychological triggers that drive user action.-------------------------------------------------------------------------Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

The following log segments the Masterclass into thematic chapters, providing the "So What?" factor for each strategic shift.Chapters:Chapter 1: The Metadata Framework [00:00 - 10:00] Context vs. Content. This segment establishes that metadata is the "context" (attributes like host and duration) that allows users to value an asset before engaging. Without these key frames, even high-quality content remains invisible to search engines and the "Exact Searcher Intent."Chapter 2: The Utility of Catchy Copy [10:00 - 18:00] Visibility Across the Funnel. Effective copy acts as the primary catalyst for Click-Through Rates (CTR) across SEO, LinkedIn, and Email. The speaker frames catchy titles as functional tools that pre-condition the audience for engagement and conversion.Chapter 3: The Physics of the Pixel [18:00 - 25:00] Typography Weight. Moving beyond character counts, this chapter introduces the 600-pixel display limit. Strategists must account for the "weight" of individual characters (e.g., a capital "W" vs. a lowercase "l") to prevent truncation and maintain a professional aesthetic on the SERP (Search Engine Results Page).Chapter 4: The Psychology of Numbers [25:00 - 35:00] Time-Value Perception. This section evaluates how numbers (specifically odd numbers) impact user psychology. The "So What?" factor is the "minute-per-item" rule: users subconsciously equate the number of items in a title to the minutes they must invest (e.g., 10 ways = 10 minutes), directly influencing the decision to click.Chapter 5: Platform Evolution [35:00 - 45:00] Ecosystem Logic. The speaker analyzes Instagram's transition to "TV-style" content and LinkedIn's rigid SEO URL logic. The key takeaway is the importance of "Exact Title Match" to meet user intent while navigating platform-specific constraints like DM automation and hashtag limits.Chapter 6: The Podcasting Marathon [45:00 - End] The Milestone Logic. Highlighting the "eighth-episode hurdle" where 500,000 creators quit annually, the speaker discusses his 600-episode milestone and the necessity of IAB Tech Lab compliance. Long-term distribution success is a result of persistence and technical "due diligence."High-Value Quotes"Metadata... that's just another way of saying how do we get context out of this content. Those are attributes... that's the context to the content." - Favour Obasi-ike"A capital W has more weight than a small w. A capital L has more weight than a small l... that weight they carry is a pixel size digitally.""If somebody clicks and finds your content valuable, resourceful, accurate, and responsive, then anything that you're going to do from SEO to PPC ads... you're able to use consistently."Resources:Companies Passing Tech Lab Compliance Programs | Podcast Compliance DirectoriesHeadline Analyzer Tool: Write Better Headlines | Write Better Headlines HereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Upon graduation from the Tyler School of Art and Architecture with a BFA in glass, Gemma Hollister was awarded the Windgate-Lamar fellowship from the Center for Craft, which allowed her and her partner to start a small studio in Philadelphia, Antolini Glass Co. While balancing her personal artistic practice and work as a production glassblower, the artist recently appeared on Netflix's Blown Away: Extreme Heat. The show inspired new work, which she made both in her own studio and during a residency at Monterey Glassworks. States Hollister: "Blown Away gave me a chance to challenge myself and level up my skills in glassmaking. It isn't very often that you are given such specific parameters and a time crunch to make your work. I gained so much confidence in myself as a gaffer and an artist. Looking back, it was also very special to me to be able to represent a younger generation of glassblowers, especially female glassblowers, on such a big stage." A 2023 Saxe Emerging Artist nominee, Hollister developed a practice that involves creating fantastical objects, sculptures, and installations that center around themes of imagination and control, manifesting as both literal and abstract sculpture. For her, working with glass is an exercise in the belief that her own actions directly affect change. She works to further understand the material so that she can control its outcomes by working with direction and intention.  She says: "The act of creating glass, as in many crafts, is a protest against an unresolved and rapidly evolving technological world. Glass historically has proven the power to educate, inspire, and call to action those who observe it. In my practice, I manipulate traditional associations with both blown and stained glass — its narrative structure and divine light — by addressing contemporary issues that I want viewers to reflect upon." Hollister has traveled the country as a student and teaching assistant at institutions such as the Corning Museum of Glass (CMoG) and Pilchuck Glass School. She received a partial workshop scholarship from CMoG in 2024 and a Pilchuck Glass School Summer Staff Scholarship in 2023. She has been a teaching assistant to both hot glass and stained glass greats such as Martin Janecký, Jason McDonald, Bill Gudenrath, Aya Oki and Judith Schaechter. Hollister participated in Blown Away Season 4 Group Exhibition at CMoG in 2024, an exhibition with Karen Willenbrink Johnsen and Morgan Peterson at Traver Gallery, and a solo exhibition titled Heaven Is Full Of Junk in 2022. She will teach in 2026 at CMoG August 9 through 22 with her partner Tate Newfield.  

This episode of PR After Hours is all about storytelling, not the soft, hand-wavy kind, but the kind that actually works.My guest is Tom Mulligan, longtime PR After Hours favorite and a sharp thinker on how stories drive persuasion, especially in sales, marketing, and leadership. We dig into what it really means to flip the script when you're trying to engage an audience, whether that audience is a client, a boardroom, or a reader.We talk about why every good story needs a clear ending, not just a strong opening, and how too many pitches fall apart because the storyteller hasn't decided where they're going. Tom pulls examples from books, real-world sales conversations, and his own writing to show how structure creates confidence.We also get into AI, specifically its role as an editor rather than a creator. If you want honesty, Claude will give it to you, mercilessly. We discuss why AI works best as an additive tool, helping sharpen structure, expose weak spots, and force clarity, rather than pretending it can replace judgment or voice.Along the way, we cover:Why storytelling is a sales skill, not a creative indulgenceHow knowing the ending changes everything that comes before itThe difference between subtractive and additive storytellingWhat AI does well, what it does badly, and why it doesn't care about your feelingsHow to use structure as a form of respect for your audienceAnd because it's the season, Tom's short story “Dusty Boxes”, which is destined to be a Christmas classic, is available to read here:https://substack.com/home/post/p-181930222Smart, practical, and just opinionated enough to be useful, this is an episode for anyone who tells stories for a living, or needs to get better at it fast.Pour a drink.

In this Faith in Action Friday episode, Faith Lived Through Discipline, Structure, and Service, I reflect on my recent conversation with Adam, a police officer, jiu jitsu black belt, and gym owner. His story highlights how faith is often lived out through consistent action, structure, and service, not loud words or perfect belief.Faith doesn't always show up as certainty or comfort. Sometimes it shows up as discipline, restraint, and choosing to do the right thing when it would be easier to shut down.We explore Psalm 34:19 and what it really means to walk through hardship without becoming hardened by it. This episode is about resilience, accountability, and faith expressed through daily choices.Key Themes:Faith lived through action, not slogansDiscipline as a form of faithPsalm 34:19 and realistic resilienceStructure, service, and consistencyCall to Action: Listen to the full interview with Adam and share this episode with someone who needs structure more than motivation.

Arsenal's season raises an uncomfortable question: can you chase everything without losing something?In Episode 154, the lads debate whether Arsenal should sacrifice a competition to protect the Premier League title push, following the Carabao Cup semi-final draw and growing concerns around injuries and squad load. Is trophy greed a strength — or a trap?There's a deep discussion around priorities, risk management, and Arteta's approach to rotation as Arsenal juggle four competitions with a big squad and notable injury list. The panel disagrees sharply on whether letting one trophy go is pragmatic — or a mindset Arsenal can't afford.We also dig into Arsenal's baffling obsession with long throws: why they slow the game down, increase injury risk, and feel completely at odds with how this team should control matches. Retention vs theatre. Structure vs disruption.Plus:Potential Carabao Cup semi-final vs Chelsea Long throws, set-piece logic and game managementEverton away under the lights: atmosphere, injuries and approachA classic Who Am I? and an Everton-themed Six PackA tense moment in the season — and a defining one.Chapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables Intro(00:55) - Carabao Cup Semi-Final Draw Explained(01:34) - Should Arsenal Let a Trophy Go?(06:18) - Squad Load, Injuries & Arteta's Rotation Risk(10:44) - Ordering the Trophies: What Matters Most(14:30) - Is Sacrificing a Cup Ever Acceptable?(19:01) - Long Throws: Why Arsenal Keep Doing Them?(19:43) - The Stats, the Time Wasted & Loss of Control(21:19) - Rory Delap Legacy vs Modern Arsenal(23:15) - Injury Risk, Game Management & Common Sense(25:59) - Retention vs Chaos: The Man City Comparison(27:28) - Pt.2 Who Am I?

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.The market feels wild right now. Red candles everywhere, headlines screaming “crash,” and everyone suddenly acting like they can predict the future. This video cuts through all of that noise and breaks down what actually happens during market crashes, using real historical data instead of fear, hype, or internet bravado.Instead of guessing, this walkthrough looks at every major market crash going all the way back to 1929 and shows something most investors completely miss. Nearly every crash follows the same structural setup. The problem is not that people do not have information. The problem is they react emotionally instead of following a repeatable process.You will see exactly how the 10 EMA, 20 EMA, and 50 MA behave before major selloffs like 1929, 1987, 2000, 2008, and 2020. The charts do not lie. When price and trend line up the wrong way, risk explodes. When they stabilize, opportunity shows up.This is not a “buy the dip and pray” conversation. In fact, blind dip buying is one of the fastest ways investors destroy their own wealth. Timing matters. Structure matters. Context matters. Crashes are not random events. They are patterns that repeat with different outcomes.Halfway through the video, the conversation shifts from pure chart analysis to something more important. How to protect yourself from people selling dreams instead of results. There is a big difference between trading and marketing, and this video makes that line very clear.Here is what you will take away from this breakdown:✅ Why nearly every major crash starts with the same trend setup✅ How the 10, 20, and 50 moving averages act as early warning signals✅ Why the same signal can appear multiple times without causing a crash✅ How emotional dip buying quietly wipes out long-term returns✅ What separates real risk management from internet noiseThe most important lesson is simple. Crashes are not flaws in the market. They are part of the system. Once you understand that, fear turns into preparation. Preparation turns into confidence. Confidence turns into better decisions.This video also explains why studying crashes from decades ago still matters today. Even recent events like the 2020 pandemic crash and the 2025 tariff-driven selloff followed the same structural behavior. Different headlines. Same mechanics.If your goal is to stop reacting, stop guessing, and start understanding what the market is actually doing, this breakdown will change how you look at price forever. No predictions. No hype. Just patterns, probabilities, and disciplined thinking.Watch closely, study the examples, and take notes. The next major move will not feel random once you know what to look for.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

Datawizz is pioneering continuous reinforcement learning infrastructure for AI systems that need to evolve in production, not ossify after deployment. After building and exiting RapidAPI—which served 10 million developers and had at least one team at 75% of Fortune 500 companies using and paying for the platform—Founder and CEO Iddo Gino returned to building when he noticed a pattern: nearly every AI agent pitch he reviewed as an angel investor assumed models would simultaneously get orders of magnitude better and cheaper. In a recent episode of BUILDERS, we sat down with Iddo to explore why that dual assumption breaks most AI economics, how traditional ML training approaches fail in the LLM era, and why specialized models will capture 50-60% of AI inference by 2030. Topics Discussed Why running two distinct businesses under one roof—RapidAPI's developer marketplace and enterprise API hub—ultimately capped scale despite compelling synergy narratives The "Big Short moment" reviewing AI pitches: every business model assumed simultaneous 1-2 order of magnitude improvements in accuracy and cost Why companies spending 2-3 months on fine-tuning repeatedly saw frontier models (GPT-4, Claude 3) obsolete their custom work The continuous learning flywheel: online evaluation → suspect inference queuing → human validation → daily/weekly RL batches → deployment How human evaluation companies like Scale AI shift from offline batch labeling to real-time inference correction queues Early GTM through LinkedIn DMs to founders running serious agent production volume, working backward through less mature adopters ICP discovery: qualifying on whether 20% accuracy gains or 10x cost reductions would be transformational versus incremental The integration layer approach: orchestrating the continuous learning loop across observability, evaluation, training, and inference tools Why the first $10M is about selling to believers in continuous learning, not evangelizing the category GTM Lessons For B2B Founders Recognize when distribution narratives mask structural incompatibility: RapidAPI had 10 million developers and teams at 75% of Fortune 500 paying for the platform—massive distribution that theoretically fed enterprise sales. The problem: Iddo could always find anecdotes where POC teams had used RapidAPI, creating a compelling story about grassroots adoption. The critical question he should have asked earlier: "Is self-service really the driver for why we're winning deals, or is it a nice-to-have contributor?" When two businesses have fundamentally different product roadmaps, cultures, and buying journeys, distribution overlap doesn't create a sustainable single company. Stop asking if synergies exist—ask if they're causal. Qualify on whether improvements cross phase-transition thresholds: Datawizz disqualifies prospects who acknowledge value but lack acute pain. The diagnostic questions: "If we improved model accuracy by 20%, how impactful is that?" and "If we cut your costs 10x, what does that mean?" Companies already automating human labor often respond that inference costs are rounding errors compared to savings. The ideal customers hit differently: "We need accuracy at X% to fully automate this process and remove humans from the loop. Until then, it's just AI-assisted. Getting over that line is a step-function change in how we deploy this agent." Qualify on whether your improvement crosses a threshold that changes what's possible, not just what's better. Use discovery to map market structure, not just validate hypotheses: Iddo validated that the most mature companies run specialized, fine-tuned models in production. The surprise: "The chasm between them and everybody else was a lot wider than I thought." This insight reshaped their entire strategy—the tooling gap, approaches to model development, and timeline to maturity differed dramatically across segments. Most founders use discovery to confirm their assumptions. Better founders use it to understand where different cohorts sit on the maturity curve, what bridges or blocks their progression, and which segments can buy versus which need multi-year evangelism. Target spend thresholds that indicate real commitment: Datawizz focuses on companies spending "at a minimum five to six figures a month on AI and specifically on LLM inference, using the APIs directly"—meaning they're building on top of OpenAI/Anthropic/etc., not just using ChatGPT. This filters for companies with skin in the game. Below that threshold, AI is an experiment. Above it, unit economics and quality bars matter operationally. For infrastructure plays, find the spend level that indicates your problem is a daily operational reality, not a future consideration. Structure discovery to extract insight, not close deals: Iddo's framework: "If I could run [a call where] 29 of 30 minutes could be us just asking questions and learning, that would be the perfect call in my mind." He compared it to "the dentist with the probe trying to touch everything and see where it hurts." The most valuable calls weren't those that converted to POCs—they came from people who approached the problem differently or had conflicting considerations. In hot markets with abundant budgets, founders easily collect false positives by selling when they should be learning. The discipline: exhaust your question list before explaining what you build. If they don't eventually ask "What do you do?" you're not surfacing real pain. Avoid the false-positive trap in well-funded categories: Iddo identified a specific risk in AI: "You can very easily run these calls, you think you're doing discovery, really you're doing sales, you end up getting a bunch of POCs and maybe some paying customers. So you get really good initial signs but you've never done any actual discovery. You have all the wrong indications—you're getting a lot of false positive feedback while building the completely wrong thing." When capital is abundant and your space is hot, early revenue can mask product-market misalignment. Good initial signs aren't validation if you skipped the work to understand why people bought. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

You don't need another fresh start. You need structure.

Listen if you're tired of restarting and ready to build something steady.

Sue Straughan, a tenured hospitality specialist and Corporate Director of Business Solutions for the food distributor Ben E. Keith, shares her remarkable 40+ year journey in the industry, detailing how a necessity job at Baskin Robbins evolved into a profound passion. The discussion centers on her pivotal experience working for Houston's restaurant, where she learned that "chaos and hospitality could coexist in a way that was beautiful", and how she applied these high standards to help turn around the struggling James Coney Island chain. This success was achieved not by raising prices, but by relentlessly focusing on systems, consistency, team pride, and the overall guest experience, demonstrating that flawless execution on the basics is the key to driving sustained sales and word-of-mouth growth.10 Takeaways  Prioritize Execution over Complexity: The most successful businesses, especially in restaurants, focus on doing fewer things perfectly rather than many things averagely. This requires a constant discipline to maintain simplicity. Hospitality and Chaos Coexist: High-volume restaurants (like Houston's with 1-3 hour waits) prove that it's possible to execute 100% flawlessly and maintain composure ("calm in the middle of chaos") by having robust systems and an intentional team culture. The Menu Should Serve the Concept: Keep the menu small and focused (e.g., Houston's one-page, 22-item menu). Introduce new items only if they meet strict time standards (e.g., eight minutes at lunch) and, if needed, replace an existing item to prevent complexity creep. Structure and Systems Build Culture: Employees thrive when they know what is expected of them. Implementing detailed, consistent systems, from cleaning standards to specific service greetings, creates a "well-oiled machine" and instills a sense of pride in the team. Invest in Your Team's Pride: Simple things like new uniforms, standardized training, and daily pre-shift meetings can significantly boost team mentality, tenure, and passion by making employees feel valued and reinforcing the importance of their role. Sales Growth Should Precede Price Hikes: The turnaround at James Coney Island focused first on driving sales by improving the guest experience before considering raising prices. The four ways to drive sales are: raise prices, encourage higher spend per visit, increase visit frequency, or attract new customers. Focus on Low-Hanging Fruit for Revitalization: Start improvement efforts by addressing what the customer sees first, such as clean parking lots, fresh paint, working signage, and clear glass. These visual cues are essential for first impressions. Measure and Reward Hospitality: Implementing a rigorous system like a 10-page mystery shopper report, coupled with accountability and financial rewards for achieving high scores (e.g., $1,000 manager bonus), can directly correlate with rising sales. Focus on What You Can Control: Don't rely on external factors like the weather to drive business. Concentrate effort and resources on perfecting the inside of your four walls: the guest's experience from driving by to walking out. Reverse-Engineer Customer Frustration: Identify the top five things consumers are most frustrated with in your industry (e.g., long waits, inconsistent quality) and intentionally do the exact opposite to stand out and "blow their mind."

JOIN "THE REBUILT MAN" ON SKOOL - ▶️ www.skool.com/rebootyourlife   Most men believe porn addiction is a behavior problem.   It's not.   In this episode of The Rebuilt Man Podcast, Coach Frank Rich pulls back the curtain on the real reason men stay stuck in cycles of porn, relapse, shame, and secrecy: identity.   You don't act your way into a new identity. You act from the identity you already believe about yourself.   Frank breaks down seven broken identities that quietly sabotage men from the inside—no matter how motivated, disciplined, or successful they appear on the outside. These identities shape how a man sees himself, how he responds to stress, and why he keeps returning to the very thing he swears he hates.   This conversation isn't about willpower. It's about the man you believe you are when no one's watching.   Frank also introduces the Rebuilt Man identity, the foundation behind the transformations of thousands of men inside the Brotherhood and explains why responsibility, structure, brotherhood, and self-respect are non-negotiables for lasting freedom.   If you've ever asked yourself, "Why do I keep going back, even when I know better?" This episode will answer that question, clearly and uncomfortably.   What You'll Learn in This Episode Why porn addiction is an identity problem, not a discipline problem   How men unknowingly adopt identities that keep them stuck in relapse   The 7 broken identities that fuel porn addiction and avoidance   Why isolation and secrecy always reinforce addiction   How achievement and success can mask a broken inner identity   Why men who avoid discomfort never experience real freedom   How the brain can change when identity changes   What it actually means to become a Rebuilt Man   The 7 Identities That Keep Men Stuck   In this episode, Frank breaks down the mindsets behind the most common identities sabotaging men today, including:   The Victim   The Escapist   The Lone Wolf   The Nice Guy   The Performer   The Undisciplined Man   The Double-Life Man   Each identity is exposed for what it really is, not who you are, but who you've learned to be.   The Rebuilt Man Identity   Freedom doesn't come from trying harder. It comes from becoming someone new.   Frank outlines the core beliefs of the Rebuilt Man identity, built on:   Radical responsibility   Brotherhood over isolation   Structure over chaos   Integrity over secrecy   Purpose over pleasure   Identity over behavior   This is the framework men inside the Brotherhood use to permanently break free, not just from porn, but from the life that kept them trapped.   Real Transformation Stories   Frank shares real examples from men inside the Rebuilt Man Brotherhood, men who didn't just quit porn, but rebuilt their confidence, marriages, faith, leadership, and self-respect by upgrading their identity.   Join the Brotherhood   If you're ready to stop fighting alone and step into a container built for growth, support, and freedom:   ➡ Join The Rebuilt Man Skool Community — Free 7-Day Trial www.TheRebuiltMan.com/7dayreset   Inside you'll gain access to: Daily accountability Weekly coaching The 7-Day Reset The 12-Week "Reboot Your Life" Framework And a brotherhood of men who refuse to quit   – Follow Coach Frank: IG - https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich   YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@CoachFrankRich   Website - https://www.rebuiltrecovery.com/homepage  

Zach sits down with Justin and Kylie Coulson, parents of six daughters and co-creators of the Happy Families movement. What unfolds is a deeply honest conversation about failure, repair, intention, and the long road toward building a family culture that actually feels good to live in. Justin shares a pivotal early-parenting moment that became the turning point of his life: a loss of control with one of their young children that forced him to confront who he was becoming as a father and husband. Kylie describes the clarity she felt in that moment—her love for Justin alongside her unwavering commitment to her children's safety—and how that line in the sand changed everything. From there, the conversation traces Justin's radical career pivot from radio to psychology, the years of study and sacrifice that followed, and the birth of the Happy Families philosophy. Together, Justin and Kylie unpack what “happy” actually means—not the absence of hardship, but the presence of connection, safety, and shared joy, especially around the family table. They share the simple but powerful structures they use to stay aligned: weekly check-ins, quarterly retreats, and a three-question framework that replaces blame with collaboration. Through stories of totalled cars, hard choices, and repaired moments, Justin and Kylie show how families are built—not through perfection, but through practised responses, accountability, and love that stays bigger than the mess. Key Takeaways We always get to choose our response – Circumstances don't dictate behavior; intention does. People matter, things don't – Safety, connection, and relationship always come before stuff. Happy families are built, not inherited – Skills like communication, repair, and emotional regulation are learnable. Hardship doesn't cancel happiness – Joy is found in meaning, not ease. Repair builds trust – Conflict isn't the enemy; unresolved conflict is. Structure creates safety – Regular check-ins and retreats help families stay aligned. Blame kills collaboration – Asking “How can we support each other?” changes everything. The table is the vision – A family that wants to be together is the real measure of success. Guest Info Justin & Kylie Coulson Justin Coulson is a parenting expert, author, psychologist, and founder of Happy Families (https://happyfamilies.com.au/). He hosts Australia's most-downloaded parenting podcast, The Happy Families Podcast, and appears on national television. Kylie Coulson is his partner in parenting and purpose, bringing clarity, steadiness, and lived wisdom to their work together. They are parents of six daughters, grandparents to one (and counting), and passionate advocates for intentional family culture. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Is it possible to have a brain wired for entrepreneurship, but actually thrive best within traditional employment? In this insightful episode, host Diann Wingert flips the script on the common narrative in both the ADHD and business worlds: that entrepreneurial traits automatically mean you should start your own business. Instead, she explores the concept of intrapreneurship—bringing creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit into an existing organization—and how this path might be the most strategic decision for many ADHDers.If you're wrestling with the decision to go solo or stay employed, give this episode a listen. It just might give you permission to build a life—and career—that truly works for your brain.Three key takeaways:Entrepreneurial traits ≠ Entrepreneurial career: You can be creative, visionary, and disruptive without having to start your own business. Don't fall for the myth that employment is “settling.”Intrapreneurship unlocks impact & stability: Express your entrepreneurial strengths inside an organization. Lead without authority, innovate processes, and treat your role like you own it—while benefiting from structure, resources, and a steady paycheck.Signs that traditional employment isn't right for you:Not everyone is meant to shine as an intrapreneur. If every manager is a nightmare, structure feels suffocating, or your best ideas die in committee, maybe going solo is your move. But it's all about matching your brain and real life with the right path—not shame, not hustle-culture FOMO.Workplace roles & cultures where ADHD-ish traits thrive:Look for product development, business strategy, internal consulting, startups, project-based work, or innovation labs. Go where experimenters are rewarded, hierarchies are flatter, and outcomes matter more than bureaucracy.Mic Drop Moment:“Infrastructure isn't the enemy of innovation. Structure, when it's the right structure, is what lets your brain do what it does best without getting derailed by all the shit you hate doing."Action Step:Take 10 mins for honest self-reflection. Where do you really do your best work? What structure supports you? Then, make the choice that serves your life—not LinkedIn optics or anyone else's expectations.About the Host:Diann Wingert (she/her) is seasoned coach, consultant and the creator/host of ADHD-ish. Drawing from her many years of experience as a former psychotherapist, business owner, and someone who thinks "outside the box," Diann is known for her straight-talking, no-nonsense approach to the intersection of neurodiversity and the world of work.Enjoyed the Episode?Share your thoughts!

Most traditional coaching fails to deliver measurable, recognized improvement—only 18% of coworkers see change. Involve coworkers in setting leadership goals and gathering feedback for greater engagement, relevance, and results. Structure (a process-driven approach) is essential; it enables, not restricts, customization for every leader and situation. Regular measurement, action planning, and coworker feedback are vital for sustained coaching success. Coaches need both coaching skills and business frameworks - a program that addresses both sets up long-term impact. Leadership transformation is not just for leaders - it must cascade to teams and become part of culture. The process of developing leaders can borrow best practices from operations and project management, ensuring scalability. AI is changing what leaders and coaches need to do - the key shift is leveraging data and feedback to put ideas into action. Lasting transformation depends on taking action. Favorite Quotes On True Leadership: "Leadership is not about the leader. It's not me, it's about we. The more leaders understand that, the more they see coworkers need to be involved." On Results-Based Coaching: "At the end of the day, we're selling results. There's a lot of coaching people sell process, but people want to buy results." On Involving Teams: "If the leader gets better and the team doesn't get better, we're missing the point."  Episode Resources: https://leadersoftransformation.com/podcast/leadership/549-triple-win-leadership-coaching-building-extraordinary-leaders-teams-and-results-with-will-linssen/ Check out our complete library of episodes and other leadership resources here: https://leadersoftransformation.com ________
