ASHLEIGH GASS- A CANADIAN IN FLORIDA-MERGING GYMNASTICS STRENGTH TRAINING (Calisthenics) WITH TRADITIONAL STRENGTH TRAINING NUTRITION/MOBILITY/STRETCHING/MOVEMENT/STRENGTH/ www.movegst.com Firstly let me apologise for the very inconsiderate Australian wildlife you will hear in the show- bloody crows and kookaburras!! But I digress- on with the show! Ashleigh Gass- owner of movegst.com, based in Florida, successfully grew her business during the dark ages of 2020-2022 and I was intrigued to find out exactly how she did it. The answer lay in three words- EVOLVE, GROW & DISOBEY. The lockdown saw the team launch online in 2020, at a time much like Body Synergy gym in NZ Dunedin did, and stayed ahead of the curve. We spoke about former Olympic Coach Christopher Sommer's programming and how it saved her body post neural surgery and by simply following the process from baby beginner steps to where she is now- it works.Ash has adapted the exercise programming at movegst.com to combine GYMNASTICS WITH TRADITIONAL STRENGTH TRAINING like kettlebells, dumbbells etc. And they achieve phenomenally surprising fat loss with teaching NUTRITION/MOBILITY/STRETCHING/MOVEMENT/STRENGTH. We talked about the similarities of our processes with clients using empowering nutrition, trusting the programming and not being too tied to the process of weight loss, to achieve great success for the people who are ready to learn. Experts like Professor Andrew Huberman, Dr Peter Attia, Robb Wolff came up in our discussion, and it was great to share the synergies in what we learn, teach and use in our daily lives. Ashleigh Gass is an underrated understated wealth of knowledge, and I am sure you will love watching her videos on Insta

Ania Drozd never set out to become a clinical movement specialist. She began, instead, with a single question: Why? Why do people move the way they do? Why does pain persist even after treatment? Why do standard protocols so often fall short?The answers weren't in the textbooks. They were in the body. And they were inside her own.Raised in a family where sports were as natural as breathing, Ania's first passion was equestrian show jumping. Her early years were marked by discipline, competition, and performance under pressure—qualities that would later define her professional philosophy. But when the mental and physical toll of that life became unsustainable, she did something rare: she listened to her instincts and walked away.What followed was not retreat, but reinvention. Ania dove into weightlifting, calisthenics, and eventually clinical movement practice—not as a hobby, but as a form of personal problem-solving. Injuries, chronic pain, and a lack of clear answers from specialists forced her to build her own solutions. When MRIs, X-rays, and professional opinions led nowhere, she trusted her gut and went inward, combining her formal education in neuropharmacology with thousands of hours of experimentation and self-study.What emerged was a framework grounded in biology, behavior, and biomechanics—a common-sense system built not on trends, but on truth. She came to understand pain not as an enemy, but as a signal—one that reveals the body's inefficiencies, compensations, and imbalances. She began asking better questions—and helping others do the same.Today, Ania leads a select group of clients through that same process: breaking cycles of chronic pain and rebuilding functional movement from the ground up. Her work is defined by precision, quality, and a refusal to do anything halfway. She prioritizes depth over scale, impact over popularity, and results over trends.Her philosophy is simple:“You don't fix movement by treating symptoms. You fix movement by understanding the system.”This mindset has shaped her transition from in-person coaching to a streamlined, high-accountability online practice that spans time zones and continents. She's built a trusted brand, not by marketing noise, but by meaningful results—and by earning her clients' respect through clarity, consistency, and care.Ania Drozd is not selling movement. She's selling autonomy.
For those willing to do the work, her process doesn't just relieve pain—it redefines the way people move through life.

In this Kitchen Side episode of The Long Game Podcast, the Omniscient Digital team dives into Google's new “AI Mode” for search and the broader implications of generative AI across content marketing and SEO. They explore the shift toward conversational, zero-click search experiences, the erosion of attribution data, and how marketers need to adapt in a world where AI Overviews and LLMs are changing how users discover information. With insights on content visibility, LLM optimization, brand mentions, measurement challenges, and even some “gray hat” strategies, this episode captures the tension between innovation and uncertainty in the age of AI-enhanced search.Key TakeawaysGoogle's AI Mode Redefines Search: The new Gemini-powered interface transforms Google into a conversational AI assistant, bypassing traditional search paths.Attribution is Getting Murkier: AI Mode and zero-click searches are making it harder to track SEO performance and justify investment.Brand Mentions Beat Backlinks: LLMs prioritize citations and visibility across platforms more than technical SEO or link-building.SEO is Shifting from Keywords to Visibility: Context, off-site presence, and how content is referenced matter more than keyword density.Marketers Need First-Principles Thinking: Foundational tactics still apply—like voice of customer and content structure—but need reframing for the AI era.Creative “Gray Hat” Tactics Exist: Ideas like editing Wikipedia, acquiring cited domains, or seeding Reddit threads can boost LLM citations.Measurement Will Require New Playbooks: Marketers must blend traditional analytics with self-reported attribution and qualitative feedback.Show LinksConnect with David Khim on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Allie Decker on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterWhat is Kitchen Side?One big benefit of running an agency or working at one is you get to see the “kitchen side” of many different businesses; their revenue, their operations, their automations, and their culture.You understand how things look from the inside and how that differs from the outside.You understand how the sausage is made. As an agency ourselves, we're working both on growing our clients' businesses as well as our own.

In this episode of Change Leader Insights, Jessica Crow speaks with Derek Oaks, an author, keynote speaker, entrepreneur, and former fighter pilot and commander in the United States Air Force, about confident leadership and how to lead people effectively. Colonel Derek Oaks owns Decisive Leadership LLC, which provides executive consulting, Department of Defense expertise, and keynote speeches and workshops, and has also worked with numerous small businesses as an owner, consultant, COO, Director and Subject Matter Expert. His Air Force career culminated as the Commander, 23rd Fighter Group, which included two fighter squadrons, an operational support squadron, a range squadron, two airfields, and the largest Air-to-Ground Training Range East of the Mississippi River. During the conversation, Jessica and Derek discussed leaders' responsibility to set a vision for their teams to drive progress. Derek explained that leaders need to sit back, set the vision, and then communicate it to their teams. Says Derek, “Get the team on board with where you want to go and then empower them with that vision. Give them a chunk [of the vision], make them responsible for it, and don't get in their way.” Highlights from the conversation include: ☑️ Why casting a vision is a critical component of being a strong leader and setting teams up for success in organizational change ☑️ The leadership impact of teaching and transferring knowledge, and then getting out of the way to let people apply and utilize the knowledge themselves ☑️ Why understanding individuals' visions can create a foundation for teams to succeed, which helps them better navigate change and disruption If you want to learn more about confident leadership, be sure to tune in and hear what Derek has to say!

Tim Stout 
“How A Pro MMA Career Paved the Way for Real Estate Success”


This time, I had the pleasure of chatting with Tim Stout, former professional fighter turned real estate mogul. Tim's journey is nothing short of inspiring, and I can't wait for you to dive into our conversation. Tim, also known by his fight nickname "MOAB" (Massive Ordnance Air Blast), earned the title for his explosive, powerful presence in the ring. The nickname reflects his intense fighting style and the impact he had on opponents.

Tim began his journey in martial arts at age seven and went on to become a professional MMA and kickboxing fighter, eventually competing in Strikeforce. With a pro MMA record of 16 wins and 10 losses, including 8 knockouts, 3 submissions, Tim's career was forged in real competition. Today, he's known not just for his fight record but for building a thriving real estate business grounded in the same discipline and drive that fuelled his years in the cage.As Tim grew up, his passion for combat sports expanded into tough man competitions—venues where he could test himself against untrained but determined opponents. One humbling session with a jiu-jitsu instructor changed everything, leading Tim to train seriously in the art and ultimately go pro. Despite his success, Tim recognized the limitations of a long-term career in combat sports. The physical toll and financial uncertainty—especially while running a gym—pushed him to make a bold pivot: real estate.“You can't teach tough.” For Tim, toughness is about mindset. It's the ability to take a hit—literally or figuratively—and keep moving forward. This combat sports mindset became his greatest transferable skill. In business, just like in the ring, setbacks are inevitable. Tim credits his success in real estate to the same principles he used in fighting: staying calm under pressure, showing up consistently, and pushing forward even when things get hard. Confidence isn't just a feeling—it's something earned through repeated exposure to discomfort and challenge.Tim's training philosophy is rooted in realism and development. For kids, he recommends boxing as the foundation—it builds confidence and helps them learn to manage fear and contact. He also values wrestling as a dominant, control-based discipline. For adults, particularly women, Tim stresses proactive, decisive action in dangerous situations, focusing on targeting vital areas like the eyes, throat, and groin. And for law enforcement, he advocates for training that bridges the gap between sport and survival—equipping officers with practical, hands-on skills to reduce reliance on weapons and improve outcomes in the field.Today, Tim splits his time between leading one of the region's top real estate teams and running his gym, Independent MMA & Fitness in Newnan, Georgia, where clients from 20 to 55 train not to hurt, but to learn. His advice spans far beyond the mat: be proactive, build confidence early, and never underestimate the power of physical and mental preparation. From the dojo to the closing table, Tim Stout's life proves that real-world resilience is the ultimate transferable skill.

In this Kitchen Side episode of The Long Game Podcast, the Omniscient Digital team reflects on their experiences at SPRYNG, a standout B2B marketing conference in Austin. The conversation blends AI experimentation, prompt engineering, and the future of creativity with philosophical reflections on human connection, authenticity, and the soul of marketing. They explore why many AI users are missing the point by chasing “best practices,” and how real breakthroughs come from first-principles thinking and creative risk-taking. The episode also dives into the power of in-person events, emotional resonance, and inefficient—but high-value—tactics like dinners, meetups, and personal storytelling that can't be scaled.Key TakeawaysAI and Prompting from First Principles: Real innovation with AI comes not from templates or best practices, but from individual experimentation and intent.Four Modes of AI Maturity: From microtasker to teammate, AI can scale with how deeply users integrate it into their workflow.The Importance of Human Vibes: Tactical content aside, the SPRYNG conference reminded marketers that human connection and emotion matter more than metrics.Don't Optimize for the Median: Taking every piece of feedback can dilute differentiation—stand firm in your positioning.Community as a Business Superpower: Relationships built at events, meetups, and over meals have long-term impact beyond immediate ROI.Efficient Growth vs. “Inefficient” Magic: Some of the most meaningful, high-ROI activities are hard to measure—like handwritten notes, founder dinners, and late-night talks.Where's the Soul in AI Content?: As AI floods the web, standout content will come from real human stories, creativity, and nuance—not mass automation.Show LinksConnect with David Khim on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Allie Decker on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterWhat is Kitchen Side?One big benefit of running an agency or working at one is you get to see the “kitchen side” of many different businesses; their revenue, their operations, their automations, and their culture.You understand how things look from the inside and how that differs from the outside.You understand how the sausage is made. As an agency ourselves, we're working both on growing our clients' businesses as well as our own.

The Great Product Owner: Embracing Feedback and Adapting Over Time  Zvonimir shares his experience with a Product Owner who demonstrated exceptional growth over a two-year period. What made this PO stand out was their willingness to receive feedback from the team and adjust their behavior accordingly. When the team expressed difficulty accessing the PO for questions and early feedback, the PO responded by rearranging their schedule to sit near the team part-time. Zvone emphasizes how these incremental changes, driven by openness to feedback, transformed this person into an exemplary Product Owner. The key insight: great Product Owners honor past practices while embracing necessary changes for the future. Self-reflection Question: How might your willingness (or reluctance) to accept feedback be affecting your development as a Product Owner? The Bad Product Owner: The Reluctant Subject Matter Expert In this segment, Zvonimir describes working with a Subject Matter Expert who was assigned the Product Owner role despite not wanting the responsibility. While this person excelled at documenting requirements from their extensive knowledge, they resisted taking on core PO duties. The organization assigned them the role but didn't push for proper adoption of responsibilities. Consequently, the team and Scrum Master were forced to assume PO duties to fill the gap. Although this arrangement functioned temporarily thanks to the team's capabilities and the SME's knowledge, it created an unsustainable situation where role accountability was unclear.

In addition to his professional work, Bill is also a passionate advocate for veterans' mental health, actively supporting Camp Hope, a vital initiative aiding veterans suffering from PTSD.Back to Bill's story. Despite his training, he ignored initial warning signs, like as a suspiciously parked car and a seemingly innocent young woman engaging him in conversation. His gut instinct told him something was off, yet he dismissed it. Fortunately, when the situation escalated, Bill's quick thinking and assertive response deterred the potential threat. This experience reinforced a critical lesson: even experienced individuals can become complacent, making consistent awareness and preparedness essential.Here are key insights for enhancing personal safety:Trust Your Instincts: Bill emphasized the importance of trusting your gut feelings. If something feels off, it probably is. Don't be afraid to leave a situation if it doesn't feel right.Be Present and Aware: Avoid distractions like headphones or your phone when you're out in public. Pay attention to the people around you and be proactive about your safety.Project Confidence: Bad guys often prey on the weak. Projecting confidence and awareness can deter potential threats.Avoid Distractions: Remain aware of your surroundings by avoiding distractions like headphones or excessive phone use in public spaces.Have a Plan: Always know your exit routes, and consider carrying self-defense tools when appropriate.Beyond his safety insights, Bill's advocacy for veterans shines through his involvement with Camp Hope. This organization provides immediate assistance to veterans dealing with PTSD, offering free accommodations and community support from fellow veterans. Bill's dedication to this cause highlights the urgent need for mental health resources for those who have served.Bill started his career in technology, opening FDI Creative Services, a website development firm, in 1996 in Chicago, Illinois. Bill is also a firearms enthusiast and competitive shooter, competing in IPSC matches for most of his adult life.Bill's main focus in the web design field is to help Firearm dealers, Hunting and Fishing Outfitters, as well as various other industries build their business through web design and Internet Marketing.This passion led Bill to Partner with Mark Atchison, an NRA pistol instructor and Federal Firearms Licensee.

Risk is an integral part of the human experience…but risk also needs to be managed if we are to live safe, healthy and happy lives. The recent wildfires in Los Angeles were a tragic reminder of the risks that the climate crisis poses to health, homes, habitats, and the lives of human beings. But the risks posed by extreme weather events are also multi-faceted: disinformation in the wake of hurricanes and wildfires can lead to chaos, with online hate transforming into real-life violence. The insurance industry is based on mitigating risk - but for cities with high probabilities of climate impacts such as wildfires, the risk is becoming too great and financially unviable. There is hope, though: insurance can be used as a climate adaptation tool, reducing risk, to better protect people, cities and the planet. Image credit: This image was AI-generated and does not depict real events.Featured guests: Jodie Molyneux, Subject Matter Expert (mis- and disinformation) at Resolver Kate Stein, Director of the Climate-Resilient Insurance Strategy Project (CRISP) Links:Estimated cost of fire damage balloons to more than $250 billion - LA TimesMAGA Blames Homeless in Deranged California Fires Theory - The Daily BeastThe LA Fires Could Change the Insurance Industry - Harvard Business ReviewMan arrested over alleged violent threat against Fema staff in North Carolina - The GuardianCalifornia wildfires deliberately set for ‘Agenda 2030' and smart cities?

“The Evolution of U.S. Marine Corps Special Operations”: Insights from John DaileyJohn Dailey is a retired Marine Force Recon sniper and member of Detachment One, the first USMC unit in SOCOM. A veteran of Afghanistan and Iraq, he now trains Marine Raiders and holds multiple master's degrees, including an MFA in creative writing. He is also the author of Tough Rugged Bastards. Over the course of his career, John played a pivotal role in shaping the Marine Corps' special operations capabilities, including the formation of the Marine Raiders. From his early days in Force Recon to deploying alongside Navy SEALs in Iraq, John's experience spans some of the most transformative moments in modern military history.In this episode, John shares a powerful insight that has shaped both his military career and his life beyond service:"When the mission changes, your mindset must change with it. Adaptability isn't just a skill; it's a survival tool.”This mindset defined John's ability to lead through shifting roles, new threats, and unexpected challenges. After 9/11, as the Marine Corps was tasked with creating a new special operations unit, John found himself at the forefront of this transformation. Working alongside Colonel Robert Coates, John helped form the Marine Corps' first special operations unit, which would later become the Marine Raiders. Their initial deployment alongside Navy SEALs in Iraq in 2004 marked a turning point for the Marine Corps' role in SOCOM and the wider special operations landscape.John's philosophy on leadership, adaptability, and teamwork is deeply rooted in his military experience. He emphasizes that even support roles — mechanics, medics, and administrative staff — were vital to mission success. "Everybody fights," John recalls. "That mindset kept us prepared for anything.”Mental Fortitude and Problem-Solving: The ability to navigate high-stress situations and solve problems under pressure is crucial in special operations. John's resilience and growth throughout his career serve as an inspiration for aspiring operators and veterans alike.Since retiring, John has continued to share his insights on leadership, resilience, and the importance of finding purpose after military service. His book, Tough Rugged Bastards, blends personal stories with actionable lessons for overcoming adversity and embracing change. For those navigating their own transitions — whether in the military, corporate world, or personal life — John's message is clear: adaptability, teamwork, and purpose are the cornerstones of success.John's remarkable journey, from the sands of Iraq to mentoring others through his writing, stands as a testament to the power of perseverance and the enduring strength of the Marine Corps spirit.Why You Should Listen: This episode is a deep dive into the world of special operations, filled with historical context, personal stories, and valuable lessons. Whether you're a military enthusiast, a history buff, or someone looking for inspiration, John Daly's experiences and insights are sure to captivate you.

This is lesson number 11 of our 12-lesson series on how to win group sales presentations. So far, we've covered a lot of the foundational concepts of group selling skills and ways to get buying committees to buy from your team after you get shortlisted. Just as a 30,000-foot recap, we started by covering many of the myths about shortlist presentations. One of those myths is that the slideshow is the presentation so you should start by designing your shortlist slideshow. That one mistake can cause teams to lose the high-level sales presentation more than any other mistake.Instead, you want to design the presentation -- design what your team will say -- first. Then, after you have a clear presentation designed, create your slideshow to enhance what is being said in the presentation.We also covered the power of case studies and success stories in a shortlist presentation. The best evidence that you can help this buying committee is past experience on similar projects. When you get really good add adding specific case studies as evidence that you can help this committee, they will trust your team more. These success stories also build rapport with the audience and reduce the nervousness of your presentation team. We also covered how important it is to research the buying committee. The more you know about what they want, the easier it is to design a targeted shortlist presentation. Then, finally, last week, we covered how to create a succinct presentation outline. This is your blueprint for a successful shortlist presentation.Now that we have a great presentation outline, in this episode, we're going to help you help your SMEs (your Subject Matter Experts) design their component parts of the presentation. In this process, you have to be a great coach. You have to help them design a very concise presentation-within-the-presentation. And the backbone of each of those mini-presentation will be... wait for it... Fantastic case studies.So, we are going to help your presentation team members create a mini-presentation within the big presentation. And we'll follow the same strategy that we used last week to help them create a compelling speech-within-a-speech, so to speak.We'll also show you how to help them turn that outline -- that blueprint -- into a compelling presentation by adding in case studies.Then, next week, in the final episode, we'll show you how to help them jazz up the entire presentation with what we call our "Impact Ideas." These are ways to enhance the presentation to an even higher level.I know that, counting these last two lessons, we will have covered 12 different steps in this process. And, at this point, you may be thinking, "This sounds very complicated." The exact opposite is true, though. This process will save you so much time. It will also drop the stress level of your presenters a lot. The first time going through the whole process, it can be time-consuming. You have to get each presenter really good at determining what the absolute-most-critical, most-important things are to the audience. You also have to get your entire team to get really, really good at telling captivating success stories.But once you get your team skilled in these areas, the actual designing of a new shortlist presentation is very, very fast. For instance, I've been able to get experienced teams (meaning teams that have already done at least one shortlist presentation with me before) ready to present in a single three-hour morning.The process is very fast once you get the basics down. And hopefully, by the end of this episode, you'll be able to see that very easily.

And we've spent a lot of time on how valuable case studies or success stories are in winning a committee over to hiring your team. In the last episode, I showed you how to pick the best presentation team. Then, we covered how to research the buying committee so that we can create a presentation based on specifically what they want us to cover. If you haven't listened to the last episode, make sure to do that before you listen to this one and what we cover next week.In these two episodes, we are going to pull together all of the foundation information from the first nine episodes and show you how to design a compelling shortlist presentation. This process will likely be totally different from the way you have designed these presentations in the past. This week, I'm going to help you design a comprehensive presentation outline. Then, next week, I'll show you how to coach and help your presentation team design each component part of the speech so that everything they create is focused on the overall presentation outline. Basically, we will help you determine what you will say -- first. Then, after you have a fantastic presentation that is compelling and makes the buying committee want to choose you, then -- and only then -- will we create the slideshow. Most presentation teams have their marketing people jump in right away and start by designing the slideshow -- the visual aids. That is the absolute biggest mistake you can ever make when creating a high-level sales presentation. So, today, I'm going to give you a better alternative.We'll cover how to create a great outline -- a roadmap for the presentation. Then, next week, we'll cover how to get your SME (your Subject Matter Experts) to wow the committee with their experience and expertise. Most likely, we will also cover session 12 next week. That will be the final part, where we put the entire process together into a Wow-worthy shortlist presentation.

China has approved the construction of what will become the world's largest hydropower dam in Tibet. Located in the lower reaches of the Yarlung Tsangpo river, it could generate three times more energy than the Three Gorges Dam – also built by China - and currently the worlds' biggest. This Inquiry examines how important hydropower is for China's economy, whether it will meet its climate goals and whether this new dam is a “safe project that prioritises ecological protection” as China claims. We look at how it'll be built, and why some in neighbouring countries have concerns.

350 – MSLP-C™ Certification Updates: Accreditation, Committees, and Subject-Matter Experts!

In the SLP space alone, there are over 300 kinds of certifications you can achieve in your professional development journey. While certifications are completely optional and a personal decision based on your goals and current work situation, there are certain standards to consider when browsing your options. One question to ask yourself is: “Is this certification accredited OR undergoing the accreditation process?” Creating an accredited certification program is not something one can randomly do or purchase. I know…who would have thought?! Accreditation is a rigorous, lengthy, and comprehensive process with multiple levels of accountability, subject matter experts, and psychometric methods. And the MSLP-C™ Certification is months away from being accredited! Friends, this was a pro cess.  We have shared a TON about the “why” behind this certification. In this week's podcast we discuss the “how”!  Lori Morgan, PhD, CCC-SLP and Manny Straehle, PhD - a psychometrician (and data wizard, in my opinion) - join me to dive into the nitty gritty about the accreditation & certifying exam process for the MSLP™  Certification including: how accreditation works why we need a psychometrician on the team why and how a certification exam is created (THIS was a doozy!!) the process of item-writing, research, and verification what the overall goal is with this optional certification. Tune in and prepare to be blown away by how much work was done to ensure we are offering the highest quality certification program available to medical SLPs!  Find out more about the MSLP-C™ Certification Program here: https://medslped.com/certification The post 350 – MSLP-C™ Certification Updates: Accreditation, Committees, and Subject-Matter Experts! appeared first on Swallow Your Pride Podcast.
