What if one signature event could grow your email list, create valuable business relationships, and build a clear pathway to your paid offers? In this episode of Life Changing Money, Barbara sits down with copywriter, entrepreneur, and Copy Confidence Society founder Marisa Corcoran to discuss how online summits can transform a business. Marisa explains how she created The Copy Chat, a free, multi-day virtual summit focused on copywriting. When she launched the event in 2018, she had only 75 people on her email list (including her mom and best friend). Within a year, her list had grown to 5,000 subscribers, helping her generate a $112,000 launch followed by a $300,000 launch. Marisa shares why virtual summits are about much more than borrowing another speaker's audience. When created strategically, they can lead to collaborations, referrals, stronger industry relationships, increased visibility, and an audience filled with people who are prepared to buy. Tune in to hear: What an online summit is and how it can grow your email list How summits create visibility, collaborations, and long-term relationships Why your free event should lead naturally into your paid offer How Marisa grew her email list from 75 to 5,000 subscribers How The Copy Chat contributed to six-figure launches Why repeating and refining a proven strategy creates better results How small, continuous improvements can strengthen your marketing Why business owners should stop chasing every shiny new idea How Marisa transitioned from acting to copywriting and entrepreneurship What a failed Winnie the Pooh audition taught her about controlling her future How acting and storytelling can make marketing copy more persuasive Why personality is essential in an AI-driven marketplace How to use AI without outsourcing your creativity or brand voice The three things strong copy can help people do: remember you, rave about you, and refer you Why the right business room can elevate your pricing, ideas, and confidence Connect with Marisa: https://marisacorcoran.com/ https://www.instagram.com/therealmarisacorcoran/ How To Get Involved: Life-Changing Money is a podcast all about money.

A note about the work "Empty Summits" from An Chang Joon: "It was a strange confluence of events that made the essay possible, as the first version of this essay was much more of a revisionist history piece, with a focus on Shohei Imamura's film, as well as the folklore of ubasute, and how that warped into the myth of the goryeojang. As I was writing this for my MFA program, my grandfather in Korea passed away. Since I was in Baton Rouge, I was the only person in my family who couldn't make it to the funeral. When I rewatched the film to finish writing about it, I found myself stuck on scenes that weren't relevant to the topic I had in mind, until I realized why I couldn't stop watching (and crying at) certain points of the movie. I rewrote the essay, accepting that there was no way to write it without weaving my family into it. My relationship with my family is complicated and difficult. My family is convinced of an afterlife and believes—even finds comfort—in the idea that our grandfather is in a better place. I am unconvinced about this. But I dearly wish I could be—and am saddened to realize I am not."

If you're sick of doing a lot of things and not seeing big enough results, this episode is for you. I'm breaking down the ROI of strategies like content, challenges, webinars, ads, and summits. You'll hear the 3 ways I evaluate each strategy and how to know if the time investment of a summit is worth it for you right now. For show notes, head to https://summithosthangout.com/328

Foundations of Amateur Radio Previously I've talked about one of the often lauded cornerstones of the amateur radio community, namely Emergency Response, and to be frank, I questioned then, as I do now, the reality of this, at the very least, perceived, foundational aspect of our global hobby. Before you get out the caps lock key, let me assure you that I'm aware of sporadic examples of heroic efforts made by members of our community to save lives that are held up as examples of amateur radio emergency responses. What I'm questioning is related to our collective effectiveness. We have global and increasing occurrences of wild or bush fires, we have earthquakes and tsunamis, storms, hurricanes, cyclones or typhoons, whatever you call the vortex of destruction, and global news media ensures that we hear about it within hours if not seconds. Social media provides us with mobile phone footage dubbed with expert audio to explain the latest tragedy to the rest of us. What we don't see is what happens next, while the power is out, the internet is down, mobile phones aren't working anymore and survivors are fighting tooth and nail for their return to normalcy, or at least what's left of it. It struck me that one thing I never see discussed and haven't ever discussed in over a decade and a half I've been here, is the amateur radio interface with the rest of the world. A comment I see often is that Internet connected amateur radio, like Echolink, AllStarLink and IRLP, aren't real radio and that real amateurs use RF. HF radio for the win right? What do you think the relevance of HF radio is to a family member living in the next town after a disaster, or a parent looking for their lost child? How do ordinary people benefit from the radio amateur who lives on their street, or the one who travels into the disaster zone? Ultimately, if we are to take our claimed emergency response role seriously, we as a community of radio amateurs need to consider just what it is that we can offer to the people around us in the case of an emergency. Might what we offer look like a Wi-Fi base station that's connected to the rest of the world via an IP link that happens to be running on 2m or 70cm during an emergency? Or could what we offer be described as an Amateur Radio Short Message Service, what about transmitting a DVB-T dashboard that's being updated over LoRaWAN, or a local voice relay service? Where's the infrastructure, planning, preparation and training for that? Where's the documentation for it? How are we telling the local community about it? How well do we even do outage notifications within our community, let alone outside it? The point being that there are amateurs who beat their chest about emergency preparedness and, bluntly, have little or nothing to show for it. Don't get me wrong, this isn't limited to the amateur radio community. For a few weeks I became an aspirant member of a local emergency response team, right until I discovered that their biggest issue was that their user base, the local volunteer bushfire brigades, didn't really know how to use their radio repeater system and my suggestion to go and visit each one on a rotation basis and train them was met with snorts of derision and laughter. Do you really want an emergency response to be ad hoc? "Oh, sorry, I'm missing a cable and I can't connect this to that, I'll sort it out for next time." The increased interest in the various "OTA" or "On The Air" pursuits, Parks, Peaks, Summits, Bunkers, Castles, Waterways, Islands, Lakes, Libraries, Lighthouses and Toilets to name a few, are all helping amateurs practice with the "getting on-air and make noise using a temporary installation" part of an emergency response, but few of those activities interact with the general public in any way. Ironically, the local Wireless Civil Emergency Network, or WICEN, is at least doing some community outreach by providing radio infrastructure to a few local events. It's a start, but still a very long way from interacting with your next door neighbour in preparation for a massive storm and subsequent power outage. Here's the thing. There's no end-to-end anything. Is ad hoc sticky tape and baling wire really the way you want our amateur community to respond to an emergency? Is emergency response a fanciful concept, or are there things we as a community could put together to make it reality? I'm Onno VK6FLAB

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 23rd of July 2026 We said last week that there were no coronal holes to worry about. Yet two days later a massive crack appeared on the Sun, stretching over one million kilometres. Luckily, this didn't amount to much and it had little effect on HF propagation, but it does go to show that solar events can rapidly develop and that long-term forecasts can be tricky. The solar flux index has increased over the past week, and was sitting at 150 as this report was being written. As we suggested earlier, geomagnetic conditions have been quiet with the Kp index generally below 3.5, which bodes well for HF. Solar conditions have been good with only four M-class solar flares and no X-class events. Any coronal mass ejections, or CMEs, have been directed away from Earth. We are still in the summer doldrums, so D-layer absorption remains high and maximum useable frequencies, or MUFs, are generally lower than in the autumn and winter. However, we have the IOTA contest this weekend, which is a great opportunity to work some far-flung DX. So why not dust off your radio and get on the air? With mainland Great Britain being an island, you might find you are in demand as EU-005! Other DX to be worked this week includes RI0BW, the Arctic Legends IOTA DXpedition; 3B9HR from Rodrigues Island; PJ7/LA5IIA on St Maarten; TY5FR from Benin; E51CZZ and E51KEE on the Cook Islands; VU4R from the Andaman Islands; and VP5G operating from Turks and Caicos. In the coming week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index may fall back to 125 at first, and then down to around 108. Luckily, the Kp index is predicted to remain low, with a predicted Kp of 2, at least until the end of the month. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO There have been good examples of both tropo and Sporadic-E in the last week and there are reasons to continue with some optimism for the coming week. This is still a good period for summer tropo. However, remember that hot days are the enemy of tropo over land and it tends to be sea paths that survive throughout the day, whereas land stations have to make the best of nighttime operations. That said, the main change in the weather pattern this coming week will be that the high pressure, which has been over the Atlantic just west of Britain, shifts into the continent and eventually out of reach by the end of next week. So, the message is to get into the tropo while it's here and use the latter part of the week for perhaps meteor scatter, with the Delta Aquarids peaking in the coming week. There is reserved optimism for this since it's primarily a southern hemisphere event. Rain scatter has been very hard to find recently but looks like making a comeback as the weather turns more unsettled with sequences of fronts crossing the country. Maybe only patchy weak fronts, but still worth considering. The summer aurora prospects are staying on the marginal side but watch out for Kp index values creeping above 5 before turning your beams north. Sporadic-E, which is rolling along in main summer season fashion, has been very good lately and was producing a full set of bands, up to 2m, last Thursday the 23rd of July. As the weather turns a bit more unsettled, this could help with Sporadic-E. This could happen if the fronts move into the continent and weak jet streams, and possibly thundery cold fronts, create turbulence at the right sort of range over Europe. This will probably favour paths to Scandinavia and to the Balkans. For EME operators, Moon declination reaches minimum today, the 26th, so Moon window lengths and peak Moon elevation are at their lowest value. With apogee yesterday, the 25th, path losses will decrease as the week progresses. 144MHz sky noise is high to start the week, peaking at over 2800 Kelvin today, the 26th, before slowly decreasing in the coming week. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

In Part 2 of our AWS Summits recap, Geries AbouAyash, AWS Managing Director, North America Solutions Architecture joins Malini and Amit to unpack what the shift to agentic AI really means for how we work. From Amazon Quick's autonomous agents ("Quick Just Does It") to Kiro on iOS, DevOps Agent, and Transform — and the infrastructure changes powering the emerging agent economy, like S3 Annotations and AWS WAF AI Traffic Monetization — the conversation goes beyond announcements to the bigger question: does AI just help us do more, or help us do more meaningful work? The throughline: AI isn't about replacing people — it's about removing undifferentiated work so builders, engineers, and leaders can spend more time where they create the greatest value.https://kiro.dev/blog/introducing-kiro-for-ios/https://aws.amazon.com/devops-agent/features/?trk=bdad73ef-9780-48b0-b82e-6d92ad86fcf6&sc_channel=pshttps://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2026/04/aws-transform-kiro-vscode/https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/annotations-overview.htmlhttps://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2026/06/aws-waf-ai-traffic-monetization/AWS Hosts: Amit Narayanan & Malini ChatterjeeEmail Your Feedback: rethinkpodcast@amazon.com

Three AWS Summits across the US — LA on June 10, NYC on June 17, and Washington DC on June 30–July 1 — brought a wave of announcements that all orbited a single thesis: the age of agentic AI is here, and the winners will be organizations whose agents get smarter with every decision they make. In this episode, AWS Managing Director, North America Solutions Architecture, Geries AbouAyash joins hosts Malini and Amit to break down four major Summit announcements — Graviton5, AWS Context, AgentCore Harness, and AWS Continuum — spanning next-gen CPUs for agentic workloads, a governed knowledge graph that gives agents organizational memory, production-grade agent deployment, and security at machine speed. The throughline: in the age of Agentic AI, the challenge is no longer building intelligence but operationalizing it — and as foundation models become universally accessible, competitive advantage shifts from who has the model to who can run AI securely, efficiently, and at enterprise scale.https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/top-announcements-of-the-aws-summit-in-new-york-2026/https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/aws/aws-graviton-5-cpu-amazon-ec2https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/machine-learning/context-intelligence-for-your-data-and-ai-agents-at-scale/AWS Hosts: Amit Narayanan & Malini ChatterjeeEmail Your Feedback: rethinkpodcast@amazon.com

Online summits have been a staple list building and authority boosting strategy for over a decade. Not only do summits help hosts grow their audience, a well-run virtual event gives speakers a platform to share their expertise, and create opportunities for attendees to learn from a variety of experts in one place. But lately I've noticed that many summits are experiencing diminishing returns. So, why are so many of them falling flat? In Episode 494 of Amplify Your Success Podcast, I talk about a pattern I've been noticing after participating in hundreds of online events over the last fifteen years. Registrations are shrinking, participation is low, speakers are seeing diminishing returns, and audiences are walking away without a lot of information, but not true transformation. This isn't about online summits being ineffective. In fact, I'm still a big believer in virtual events as a powerful visibility strategy. The challenge is that many events have shifted from creating meaningful transformation to being a transaction. The focus becomes registrations, list growth, and exposure while the deeper opportunity for connection, collaboration, and community gets left behind. In this episode, I explore what's possible for hosts, speakers, and attendees if the model changes as we move into a new era of business built on belonging, relationships, and shared experiences. If you've hosted an online summit, spoken at virtual events, or found yourself signing up for event after event without seeing meaningful results, this conversation will help you look at the role of virtual events differently and identify what creates lasting momentum instead of temporary attention. Key Takeaways: [00:00] Why many online summits generate registrations but fail to create meaningful momentum. [03:59] How the visibility strategies that worked in previous years are beginning to lose effectiveness. [07:17] Why prioritizing more speakers over a better attendee experience often creates overwhelm instead of value. [09:33] The hidden cost of relying on speakers to continuously build event audiences. [10:16] How speaker saturation contributes to declining engagement and weaker event outcomes. [12:56] Why collaboration between speakers is often the missing ingredient in virtual events. [14:29] What declining participation rates reveal about attendee behavior and event fatigue. [15:26] How information overload prevents attendees from fully engaging with event content. [18:25] Why community and belonging are becoming more important than information alone. [20:05] The role connection, interaction, and relationships play in creating transformation. [21:51] How attendees can get more value from events by actively engaging instead of passively consuming. [23:24] Why hosts need to focus on depth, curation, and meaningful experiences over bigger numbers. [25:07] How community-driven experiences create stronger opportunities, collaborations, and long-term growth.   Resources Mentioned in This Episode:   Join me on Substack here to discover what's working now as our industry continues to evolve.

Eric Olander on how the Global South is reading the Beijing summitsThis week I'm joined again by Eric Olander, founder of the China Global South Project, which runs the most indispensable English-language operation going for understanding China's engagement with Africa, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.I came in with a plan: map, region by region, how the capitals of the Global South were reading the back-to-back Trump and Putin visits to Beijing — relief at a steadier U.S.-China modus vivendi, or foreboding at a G2 condominium squeezing shut their room to maneuver. Eric dismantled the premise within ten minutes. The honest answer, he warned me, is that most of the Global South simply isn't watching the way we are — and the disappointment turned out to be the most interesting thing in the room. What looked like the absence of a story was the story. I'd built my questions around one assumption about what mattered; Eric had built his answers around another, and I cop to being schooled.Once you set the summit framing aside, what Eric's contributors are actually seeing comes into focus: Japan racing to recenter an Asia-Pacific security architecture, a region quietly de-risking from an unreliable United States, fresh cracks in the BRICS, Justin Yifu Lin's “three moves” for Chinese manufacturing, Latin America's “find out” phase, and a Gulf where the Chinese setback so many in Washington insist must exist simply isn't there. We get into all of it — and close on the summit as a remarkable piece of theater, the first since 1945 at which no one quite knew who the most powerful person in the room was.04:27 — The dominant mood: pro forma coverage, exhaustion, and bigger problems at home08:15 — Breaking news: the paused $14B Taiwan arms package and the canceled Colby trip11:15 — The dog that caught the truck: China and the costs of a receding U.S. umbrella13:00 — "Constructive strategic stability" — new equilibrium or just choreography?28:23 — The snub: Beijing sends only an ambassador to the BRICS meeting in New Delhi37:56 — Africa: tariff-free access, the trade imbalance, and Kenya's "collapsed" exports44:34 — Justin Yifu Lin's "three moves": move up-market, localize, move south51:00 — Latin America's "find out" phase in Panama, and very low China literacy57:35 — The Gulf after the war on Iran: who really won?Paying it Forward:Boston University's Global Development Policy (GDP) Research CenterRecommendationsEric: A “rabbit hole” of books on Xi Jinping, currently Party of One by Chun Han Wong (after Kevin Rudd's On Xi Jinping).Kaiser: Angine de Poitrine, a “microtonal math rock” duo from Quebec — think Frank Zappa meets King Crimson — possibly the thing to breathe new life into progressive rock.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Summits between US and Chinese leaders are important events. They provide opportunities to discuss sensitive issues, manage friction, and to identify ways to solve problems and promote cooperation where possible. A great deal of preparation usually goes into a US-China summit, involving hundreds of phone calls, virtual, and in-person meetings between US and Chinese officials.   The May 14-15 summit in Beijing was atypical, perhaps not surprisingly since Donald Trump is a very atypical president. Today we are going to talk about the summit – the process and well as the outcomes and the implications for the US-China relationship and American interests.  Joining us today to talk about these issues is Sarah Beran. Sarah Beran was senior director for China and Taiwan affairs in the National Security Council during the Biden administration from 2022 to 2024. She was subsequently deputy chief of mission at the US Embassy in Beijing. At the NSC, she led strategic preparations for multiple summits between President Joe Biden and Xi Jinping. After her 23 years in government service, Sarah joined Macro Advisory Partners.   Timestamps:   [00:00] Introduction   [01:45] Differences in Preparing for the Summit   [03:33] What Was Missing from Trump's Itinerary   [08:18] US and Chinese Objectives for the Summit   [12:30] Constructive Strategic Stability as a Framework   [18:09] Iran, North Korea, and Denuclearization in Chinese Policy [23:55] Tension over Taiwan Language   [29:15] Potential Reactions to Trump Calling President Lai   [30:12] Future of US-China Relations and Ally Reactions

Foundations of Amateur Radio The other day I witnessed a fellow amateur attempting to guilt another into using LoTW with comments about how their QSO partner would appreciate confirmation via the service, even if they didn't care for it. Before I continue, if you're unfamiliar, when two amateurs make a contact, or a QSO, with each other, then there's generally a log entry at both ends to record the event. Some amateurs, myself included, save up these contacts and count how many continents, countries, states and other entities are recorded in the log. Several amateur radio organisations allow you to claim an award for such a record. However, before they accept your word for it, they require confirmation of the contact, something that the amateur community refers to as a QSL. To recap, a QSO is the contact, a QSL is the confirmation of that contact. Traditionally this was achieved with postcards, known as QSL cards, transported across the globe through various postal services, and coordinated by so-called QSL bureaus, often run by the amateur radio peak body in each country. With the advent of the Internet, much of this process has turned electronic. LoTW is an example of an electronic QSL service, run by the ARRL, the American Radio Relay League. It's not the only such service, but today I'm looking specifically at the Logbook of The World, or LoTW. As I said, LoTW is not the only service and anyone telling you that you must use it is selling you something. Now, that's not why I don't use it, and again, you're free to, but you're not required to. For me there are several issues with LoTW. Having used it for a period, I feel comfortable in expressing some of its shortcomings, but I note that the last time I used it was almost a decade ago. I'll acknowledge that things might have improved or changed, but I have no evidence to suggest that it did. Let's start with how it works. You create a log in a specified format, using an application called TQSL you sign that log, ostensibly linking your identity to that log, then you upload that signed log to LoTW and wait for confirmations of contacts with other LoTW users. Signing is a process where you add information to a file that proves to the recipient that the log was created by you and wasn't modified in transit, which requires that you have a file called a certificate, which is created and sent to you via email by the ARRL, after they've authenticated you. So, first of all, in my opinion, the level of security is absurd and exceeds that of my bank, or my tax department. In addition, proving your identity comes with hurdles if you're not in America where an amateur who registers receives a postcard with an authentication code, made possible by the central database held by the FCC. For everyone else, the ARRL requires that you: "must send a copy of his/her Amateur Radio operating authorization in addition to a copy of one other government-issued document indicating his/her identity", via the post, snail mail, stamp, envelope, the whole thing. I'd also like to observe that at no time has the ARRL linked your identity to your email address, since they haven't asked for it at any point in the verification process. If that's not enough of a security nightmare, in Australia and other parts of the world, amateurs no longer hold a personal license, instead they are members of a so-called class license. There's no public record stating my ownership of my callsign, just that it's allocated. With increased privacy concerns, this is happening elsewhere too. In other words, proving that you are who you say you are is getting increasingly difficult and even if you did, you're sending that information to the ARRL, who you might recall paid a ransom to hackers who infiltrated their network. I've asked and never received a response about what actually happened to the information they continue to hold in relation to me, well that and an email from 2013 which states that "Data is never removed from LoTW." Even so, let's say that you are comfortable sending your information to the ARRL, the process of signing a certificate requires renewal on a regular basis and if you manage to forget, you have the privilege of starting all over again. Let's move on. It's important to remember that this process is to confirm a radio contact between two radio amateurs in order to get a piece of paper to hang on your wall saying that you did so. How do you know that the person you made contact with on-air is the same person who confirmed your contact? Radio isn't authenticated in any way, why should the confirmation be? Remember, before the Internet, this was done with postcards. Security and authentication aside, there's plenty more issues. I hold the callsign VK6FLAB. Several times a year, that callsign is permitted to be AX6FLAB. I like to operate portable in many different locations. Sometimes I sign "/QRP" for low power, generally if the other station is very high power and they're struggling, adding QRP can sometimes act as an incentive to complete the contact. Sometimes I sign Portable, or Mobile, depending on the situation and when I'm moving, I'm not in a specific location. Why am I raising this you ask? Well, turns out that you need to make a new location for every single one you're operating from. You also need to register each callsign and each variation, since apparently VK6FLAB and VK6FLAB/QRP are two different stations and if I sign with AX6FLAB, I need to request another certificate. So, this is increased convenience .. apparently. Then there's the argument that you're missing out. Let's get this straight. As far as I can tell, the bulk of LoTW users are American. For me, a contact with America is a single log entry to add to my continent and country list. Tell me again why I should care about this when I'm not in America? There's a list of 340 DXCC entities, which you can buy from the ARRL for $5.95 plus shipping, because of course in this digital age there's a shipping charge. In other words, this is the ARRL attempting to own the notion of confirming contacts between radio amateurs and in my opinion, being obnoxious about it. Here's another issue. If this was really so marvellous, why hasn't any other peak body adopted the Logbook of The World for their system? Why is there not a WIA version, an RSGB one and for each of the various countries who have closed their local QSL bureau due to lack of funding, since the postal burden on them has exploded to become nonviable? I think that LoTW is a solution looking for a problem, peddled by people who have something to sell and while there was a time that it might have been bleeding edge, that ship has sailed. You're free to use it, but I wouldn't recommend it. If you have never stepped into this, alternatives to explore include ClubLog, eQSL, QRZ, OQRS and plenty of print on demand QSL card services. And if you're searching, apparently QSL is also Queensland Sugar Limited, so pay attention. I should also mention that there's SOTA, Summits, POTA, Parks and other On The Air services that will happily take your log and confirm contacts. Here's a thought, how about we use the fediverse to federate and decentralise the process, or perhaps we might use something as mundane as email. If you want to use LoTW, by all means, go right ahead, but I won't and if I knew how, I'd get the ARRL to remove all my records from it, mind you, I'd have to trust them at their word, because I can't log in to check. I'm Onno VK6FLAB

With the 2026 Everest season hitting its most critical stretch, Sam and Adrian are back for their third installment of armchair mountaineering coverage. Before diving into Everest, Adrian recommends HBO's four-part series The Dark Wizard on the life of Dean Potter, which has now released all episodes and has been making the rounds well beyond the climbing community. Adrian reflects on  his feeling genuinely moved by how elegantly the filmmakers handled the full arc of Dean's life, his struggles, and ultimately his death. Sam touches on a new GPS-based avalanche transceiver from German company Nivia Safety, claiming to speed up burial searches by up to 30% and set to launch in fall 2026.From there, Sam and Adrian cover the following from the 2026 Everest season:Bartek Ziemski on Lhotse: The Polish ski mountaineer made only the second ski descent of the Lhotse Couloir — the first without oxygen, without new fixed ropes above Camp 3, and without ever taking his skis off, including finding a creative line through the icefall. Adrian, who made the first ski descent of Makalu and has a personal connection to Bartek, calls it one of the most groundbreaking Himalayan ski mountaineering achievements he's seen. Since recording this episode, Bartek went on to successfully summit and ski Everest without oxygen as well. The First Summit Wave: The rope fixing team reached the summit and six clients followed before the weather window closed. Adrian celebrates the fixing effort while pushing back on the practice of clients climbing on rope fixing day — a habit that adds pressure to the team doing the most dangerous work on the mountain.Summit Windows and Crowd Management: With a record number of climbers on the south side and a compressed season, Adrian breaks down what the next 10 days look like, how teams are positioning themselves across two potential windows, and why he's always preferred a marginal weather day with fewer people over a perfect day with 150 climbers on the route.Speed Ascents, Kristen Harila, and No-Oxygen Attempts: A look at the notable storylines shaping up for the final push — including Tyler Andrews and Karl Egloff's contrasting acclimatization approaches ahead of their FKT attempts, and Kristen Harila's no-oxygen bid after summiting Nuptse without supplemental oxygen as a warmup.Follow our podcast on Instagram @duffelshufflepodcast where you can learn more about us and our guests.

Big Ocean Women on Global Sisterhood, the Maternal Economy, and Upcoming Summits   Carolina Allen, founder and director of Big Ocean Women, and Shelli Spotts introduce our new monthly podcast series that applies the group's tenets to current issues, beginning with “working side by side in the global sisterhood." They also celebrate our Big Ocean Women CSW team's successful, safe return from sharing our maternal feminist message at the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women. They describe a “maternal economy” that decommodifies relationships and draws on abundance, creativity, and generational impact, contrasting it with hustle culture and profit-driven models. Carolina announces a May 9 summit (with more to follow) where Big Ocean will share lessons from years of attending UN forums and help mothers and families understand complex agendas, language, and how to respond with clarity, education, self-reliance, and safety.     "And one of the things that strikes me about this, about the whole idea of women coming together from all over the world, is that it is truly a decommodification. Of the way we interact with one another. My daughter called it the "I know, a guy" economy. Yes. We call it the maternal economy." Shelli Spotts   "I love the structure of the library, right? That you go and there's the wisdom of all of these people there and I think often that this type of thing is like a library of experience. We each bring our skills and our inspiration and our experience and our special interests. We have education in different areas. We know how to do different things and together we are creating this library, this maternal economy where we can metaphorically check out the knowledge that we need from one another.  And it's for a purpose. It's for the benefit of communities, and that is very exciting." Shelli Spotts    "Every time we've attended, it's been a transformative experience for women because we get to see, it's like scales fall from your eyes and you're like, wow, this stuff is real. These agendas are real, and they're very calculated. These people are talking about my children." Carolina Allen   "You have to rise up in power and not in fear, not in reaction, like you talked about, just in a very centered, grounded way that is generationally impactful." Shelli Spotts   "And what we found though is that we're pulling farther and farther away from this human-centered familial roots of our humanity. We're just moving towards a technologically driven, isolated, and like an AI governance system that's really encroaching over the whole world that's transhumanist, that's very anti-human." Carolina Allen   "Being a mom today poses a lot of challenges and Big Ocean Women—we're here to help mothers not feel alone. So we are a community that you can belong to and we're not just like a feel good, you know, sunshine and roses community. We're gonna help educate you so you know exactly what's happening out there and how to process it. And when you know how to process it, you stand in your power."

A bundle invite lands in your inbox. A summit host wants you to “get exposure.” A conference asks you to speak. They all sound like growth, but only one question decides whether it's worth your time: is this the right audience, and are they actually buyers?We walk through how we evaluate bundles, summits, and conference stages without getting distracted by vanity metrics. I explain why bundles can be a gray area, how broad bundles attract freebie hunters, and what makes a niche-specific bundle convert. We also get practical about the backend: if sign-ups come through my checkout cart at a zero-dollar checkout, I can tag, track, trigger an email sequence, and offer an upsell immediately. If it's a CSV file dump, it can break your funnel and block fast conversions.Then we shift into summits and speaking gigs. I share why I'm more likely to say yes when I can teach, offer a clean opt-in from my presentation, and leverage a VIP upgrade that proves someone is willing to spend. For conferences, we talk about the make-or-break detail: can you sell from stage or invite people directly into a program? If you can, speaking becomes a reliable lead generation strategy, not just “visibility.”If you want more episodes like this, subscribe, share with a business friend, and leave a quick review so more people can find the show.
