In this episode, I sit down with Bob Lambert, who draws on decades of real operating experience building iconic consumer brands like Nerds to explain why sustainable growth doesn't come from clever campaigns or chasing trends. It comes from clarity, curiosity, trust, and a deep understanding of how people think, feel, and make decisions. He breaks down why so many founders struggle to stand out despite having more technology, data, and channels than ever, and how unclear messaging quietly limits revenue and momentum.Our conversation shifts beyond marketing and into leadership and culture. Bob explains how trust erodes inside teams, why leaders lose effectiveness when they stop asking questions, and how creativity suffers when organizations prioritize speed and scale over understanding. As AI and automation accelerate, he makes the case that human connection, judgment, and empathy are becoming more valuable, not less, and that founders who ignore this will fall behind no matter how advanced their tools are.You'll learn:✅ Why most founders misunderstand what actually makes brands resonate✅ How creativity, curiosity, and observation drive durable growth✅ Why unclear messaging quietly kills differentiation and trust✅ How leadership and brand failures often stem from the same root problems✅ What decades of brand-building still teach founders in an AI-driven worldIf you're a founder or entrepreneur trying to build something that compounds over time, communicates more clearly, and creates products and brands people actually care about, this episode offers a hard-earned perspective you won't get from trend-driven advice.Connect with Bob LambertGuest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertjlambert/Guest Website: https://www.human2humanllc.com/If you are a B2B company that wants to build your own in-house content team instead of outsourcing your content to a marketing agency, we may be a fit for you!

At the beginning of a brand-new year, we are asked a simple but powerful question: “Where are you?” It is not a question of shame or judgment, but an invitation to pause, reflect, and be honest. As we step into this new year, this moment becomes a chance to take inventory of our lives and gently acknowledge where we truly stand with God.Most of us want growth. We want better faith, stronger families, and greater peace in our finances. But real progress always starts with honesty. When we admit where we are, without excuses or blame, we open the door for God to meet us there and lead us forward.No matter what the previous year held, every season carried lessons meant to shape us. Successes remind us what works, and failures teach us what does not. Nothing is wasted when we are willing to learn.Today is not the end of a story. It is the starting point. As we seek God's plans and commit to growing in faith, family, and finances, we can move into this year with hope, clarity, and purpose.Subscribe to Our Channel! New to LifeRock?

Recently, I was discussing AI with a friend, and they asked me to name a great success of using AI to build software. I've tried a few things, and I've worked with customers who are using AI tech. However, most of the things I've seen built with AI are small tasks; they're utilities or quick wins that change a minor part of the software. The items tend to be tactical and focused in a narrow band of fixes, and they might save a programmer time, but I'm not seeing large-scale team improvements in productivity. Yet.

Professor Toby Wilkinson. Egypt's wealth allowed the Ptolemies to hire mercenaries and engage in arms races involving African war elephants against Seleucid Indian elephants. Despite early military successes like the Battle of Raphia, the dynasty began to decline with the accession of child kings like Ptolemy V, leading to internal factionalism. 1846

In South Dakota, distance running rarely comes with a spotlight.Mikah Peters earned one anyway.The Brandon Valley senior spent years quietly building belief, never assuming he'd be the best guy on his own team, let alone a national contender. Progress came slowly. Intentionally. Through seasons of patience and an offseason obsession with getting better.In November, that belief finally crystallized. Peters won the SDHSAA Class AA State Championship in 14:54, breaking Simeon Birnbaum's long-standing state meet record.The season didn't stop there. After falling from glory at NXR Heartland, Mikah earned the Golden Ticket and lined up at the inaugural Brooks Cross Country Nationals in Balboa Park.
