On today's episode, Kara welcomes Courtney Toll, Co-Founder and CEO of Nori — the fast-growing brand reinventing how we care for our clothes and one of the most exciting consumer innovation stories unfolding right now. What started as a clever workaround between two college roommates ironing their clothes with a hair straightener has grown into a next-generation steam iron brand used by millions, proving that even the most overlooked categories are ripe for reinvention. Courtney has helped lead Nori to eight-figure revenue in under three years, raised nearly $8M, and built a design-forward hardware company in a space many founders shy away from.In this episode, Courtney shares what it really takes to build a modern hardware brand from scratch — from early prototyping hurdles to navigating the intense realities of supply chain, cash flow, and rapid consumer adoption. She opens up about the near-catastrophic 145% tariff announcement that threatened to derail Nori's nationwide Target launch and wipe out more than $5M in forecasted revenue, and how she and her team stayed scrappy, decisive, and resilient through a moment that could have broken most companies. Packed with insights on leadership, innovation, problem-solving under pressure, and scaling in unpredictable markets, Courtney's story is a masterclass in grit, adaptability, and creating momentum where others see obstacles. Are you interested in sponsoring and advertising on The Kara Goldin Show, which is now in the Top 1% of Entrepreneur podcasts in the world?

Formed in 1959 New York, the group—lead Ronnie Bennett, sister Estelle, and cousin Nedra Talley—defined girl-group era with their sultry style and Spector's "Wall of Sound," scoring hits like "Be My Baby" (#2 Hot 100) before disbanding in 1967 and earning Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2007.Analytic Dreamz traces the track's origins from Leroy Anderson's 1946 instrumental to The Ronettes' energetic version with signature "ring-a-ling" vocals and effects, overshadowed initially by its release timing but revived via 1972 reissue. Now a perennial juggernaut, it peaked at #8 Hot 100 (2023), earned 3× Platinum RIAA certification, fuels annual streams via playlists, TikTok virality (17K+ videos), syncs in shows like Hacks, and Target ads—driving the album to #7 Billboard 200 (2024) while cementing its status as a modern Christmas staple. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week, I'm talking about one of the most important emotional skills we can build as parents. I call it Uncertainty Tolerance.After a long Thanksgiving trip, a shut-down freeway, a surprise snowstorm, and a mountain of homemade pies, I found myself thinking about how much of parenting happens in the middle. The middle is the space where we have planted seeds and are waiting for results. The space where we want to feel calm and capable, but instead find ourselves worrying, predicting disaster, or questioning everything.In this episode, I explore why our brains resist uncertainty and why we often reach for familiar failure instead of sitting with the possibility that things might turn out well. I share how this shows up with toddlers, tweens, and teens. I walk you through real examples from Target tantrums to bedtime battles to teenage eye rolls and explain how to anchor yourself so that you can stay present and connected instead of reactive.Here is what I cover in this episode:What Uncertainty Tolerance IsThe ability to remain steady in the in-between space between what you want and when the results actually show up, without collapsing or quitting or rushing into negative predictions.Why Our Brains Crave CertaintyA look at how the human brain tries to avoid the unknown by assuming the worst, and how this habit affects the way we interpret our child's behavior.Why You Cannot Rely on Your Child for CertaintyChildren cannot regulate themselves for us. Their moods, reactions, and choices cannot be our source of stability. We learn to create certainty in ourselves.What You Can Be Certain OfYour heart is good. Your love is real. Your intention is strong. Your presence matters. Your influence is greater than you think. And you can learn anything you need to learn.How to Stay Grounded Through Meltdowns and PushbackI share specific examples from everyday parenting moments and show you how to remain steady even when you do not know what comes next.The Identity Shift That Changes EverythingThe grounding thought that can help you stay centered in any hard moment is this: "I am okay even if this does not work right away. My child is okay even if this does not work right away."This is not resignation. It is leadership. It is connection in action. It is the practice of trusting development more than daily behavior.Uncertainty is not a sign that you are doing anything wrong. It is an invitation to grow. You are becoming more emotionally grounded, more connected, and more confident with every messy moment you stay present for. You are doing beautiful work, even when you cannot see the results yet.Thank you for listening and for showing up for your children in ways that no one sees. You matter. Your work matters. And I believe in the direction you are heading.Now go connect your face-off with your kiddos, and I will see you next time.Learn more here --> https://connectmethodparenting.comNext Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

An Emmy Award-winning television writer and a New York Times best-selling collaborator, Samantha has written extensively in the areas of spirituality, health and wellness, personal growth and parenting.

On this episode of the Anthony On Air Podcast, we dig into the newest chaos surrounding the Epstein files as the FBI releases heavily redacted documents and former agent Dan Bongino erupts over what's being hidden and why it matters. Then we jump into Laura Loomer's latest viral exposé on the deep fractures inside conservative America and what she claims the movement is too scared to admit publicly. And because the universe needs balance, Meghan Markle is back in the headlines — this time being roasted online as “Salmonella Sussex” after a Thanksgiving turkey mishap that had royal watchers gagging.We also break down President Trump's growing problem with MAGA defections as more high-profile conservatives quietly peel away. J.D. Vance's Thanksgiving comments spark a new round of scrutiny and memes. Paul Anka opens up about his personal memories of Frank Sinatra and what the world never really knew about him. Plus, we tackle the ridiculous (and somehow relatable) Target holiday gift-bag debacle that has social media melting down.

In this episode of "It's the Bottom Line That Matters," host Jennifer Glass is joined by Daniel McCraine and Patricia Reszetylo to tackle the essential question facing many business owners: How do you effectively market to your ideal customer? The discussion zeroes in on the concept of niche marketing—moving away from the temptation to "market to everyone" and, instead, thoughtfully narrowing your focus to identify and truly understand your perfect client, or avatar. Using lively examples from their own experience, including Patricia's background in the equine industry, the trio unpacks practical ways to get inside the minds and worlds of specific groups, from moms over 40 to veterans, and explains why specificity matters so much in successful marketing.The episode is rich with actionable advice, such as segmenting your audience, matching your messaging to your niche's interests, and using the exact language your target group uses (not marketing jargon or internal company lingo). Daniel and Patricia also touch on the fear business owners sometimes feel about “niching down” too far, offering a fresh perspective on how being a “big fish in a small pond” can make a business far more competitive and memorable. Listeners will learn about the importance of personalizing marketing efforts—down to details like images on packaging that resonate with a specific audience—and the pitfalls of generic messages. The conversation wraps up with tips on resonating authentically with your audience, emphasizing that confused or overlooked customers won't buy, and urging business owners to “get as granular as possible” for real results. If you want to boost your marketing impact and discover exactly how to speak your customers' language, you'll come away from this episode with strategies you can use right away.KEYWORDS: ideal client, avatar, niche marketing, market segmentation, sales copy, persuasive language, marketing to moms, marketing to veterans, marketing to baby boomers, marketing to kids, equine marketing, teleseminar, customer agreements, buying decisions, writing for your audience, niching down, consumer lingo, affinity marketing, product targeting, retailer marketing, sales letters, demographic segmentation, direct marketing, customer needs, decision makers, gym marketing, nutritional supplement drinks, sales funnels, veteran marketing, retail product labelingHere are 3 key takeaways from the episode:The Power of Specificity: The tighter you define your niche, the easier it becomes to tailor copy, metaphors, and offers that truly resonate with your audience. Patricia Reszetylo shares how talking directly to a single customer makes your message more persuasive.Know Your Audience's Language: Whether you're targeting veterans, horse owners, or moms over 40, using your audience's language—not yours—boosts credibility and relevance.

The success story keeps rolling for Kiwi company AF Drinks. The alcohol-free brand has just secured nationwide distribution in the UK with supermarket giant Morrisons. It follows on from their US expansion, with them now stocked in over 4000 stores including Target, Walmart, and Sprouts. Founder Lisa King told Mike Hosking there's been a huge trend towards alcohol moderation. She says that a lot of people are still drinking alcohol, but they're moderating it and choosing to drink less or drink non-alcoholic versions.

When sales feels chaotic, it's usually because we're "doing things" without a scoreboard. KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) fix that by turning revenue goals into the few activities that actually drive results—plus the behavioural discipline to keep going when we mostly don't win on the first try.  Q1) What are sales KPIs, and why do we need personal ones? Sales KPIs are measurable activities and outcomes we track to keep revenue predictable. Companies sometimes hand us a dashboard, but plenty of roles don't come with clear KPIs—especially in smaller firms, new markets, or when we're building a territory from scratch. That's where personal KPIs matter: they give us "markers" for what we're doing and what we should be doing.  The key is recognising we cannot do everything. We can only do the most important things—consistently. So we choose a handful of KPIs that reflect how our sales actually works (industry, deal size, sales cycle, channel), and we track them like a pilot checks instruments: not for perfection, but for control. Q2) Which KPIs actually move revenue (and which just make us feel organised)? A useful rule: track both leading and lagging indicators. Lagging indicators: results (revenue, closed deals, average deal size). They're essential, but they tell us after the period is over. Leading indicators: the activities that cause results (qualified leads worked, buyer conversations, meetings booked, proposals sent, follow-ups completed). The best personal KPIs are usually leading indicators that map to your funnel, like: How many qualified leads we work each week How many calls / outreach touches we make How many contacts turn into appointments How many appointments convert into agreed deals Our average value per appointment How many buyers become repeat buyers  If a KPI doesn't link to a funnel stage, it's probably a "busy metric." Q3) How do we turn a big revenue target into weekly KPIs we can actually execute? We reverse-engineer the number. Start with the revenue target, then work backwards through the funnel using realistic ratios. Example logic (use your own numbers, then refine over time): Target revenue per month Average deal size → required closed deals Closing ratio from meetings → required meetings Meeting-set rate from conversations → required buyer conversations Contact rate from outreach → required outreach attempts This is exactly the discipline of breaking "big revenue targets down to activities," then setting targets for the ratios between steps.  And we'll fail plenty at first. That's not a moral issue—it's just a data issue. After a few weeks, we'll have our conversion stats, not someone else's. Q4) What funnel ratios should we track—and what do we do when the ratios are ugly? Sales is a chain. If one link is weak, the outcome collapses. Track ratios between stages, for example: outreach attempts → conversations (contact rate) conversations → meetings (appointment rate) meetings → proposals proposals → closed deals (close rate) Over time we build "reliable statistics" showing where we're strong and where we're leaking deals.  If conversations aren't becoming meetings, that's usually messaging, relevance, credibility, or timing. If meetings aren't closing, that's discovery quality, stakeholder mapping, objection handling, procurement friction, or lack of urgency. The goal isn't to shame the numbers. The goal is to diagnose the system and improve one stage at a time—because a small lift in one ratio multiplies all the way down to revenue. Q5) How do we set KPI targets without kidding ourselves (and without burning out)? Use three levels: Comfortable range (you can hit this even on a rough week) Realistic stretch (hard but doable) Moonshot (for peak weeks, not every week)  Then we attach KPIs to time management. If the target is 200 quality touches a week, we schedule them like a workout plan—because hope is not a strategy. Also: behaviour matters. Sales can be "a diabolical art" where we fail a lot, so we need "supreme discipline" to do the activities anyway.  That means tracking basics like follow-up completion, pipeline hygiene in the CRM, and daily prospecting blocks—because motivation comes and goes, but systems stay. Q6) How do we adapt KPIs to reality (gatekeepers, Japan timing, and modern outreach)? Reality includes gatekeepers, voicemail, and the classic "they'll call you back" fantasy. We can have a long call list and still get nowhere, so we vary timing and channels.  Practical KPI upgrades: Track attempts by time band (early morning, lunch, after 6pm) because contact rates change by industry and role.  Track multichannel sequences (phone + email + LinkedIn + referral asks), not just "calls." In Japan, where trust and introductions often matter, track referral requests, warm intros, and second meetings as leading indicators—because relationship-building is a real part of the funnel, not "soft stuff." Weekly review: keep, kill, adjust. If we're not moving the ratios, we don't need more hustle—we need smarter inputs.

Many Christians around the West are perplexed by the times they are living in. Things at work, at school, on their streets –they're just not the same as what they grew up with. Spiritually things are downgraded. The same holds true for the culture in general, which is now hostile to the Christian faith and biblical morals.So much of this is new and alien. Many Christians have no clue how they should respond. What can they do themselves? And what can they say or do to help their kids? Frustration is growing, along with anxiety, fear and anger.How can Christians prepare to stand – and help the Church stand – in days of darkness? How can believers brace themselves for trials, and maybe even open persecution, in the days ahead.To help answer these questions, Andy Coleman sharesfive tips that ordinary Christians can use today to strengthen themselves spiritually for pressures tomorrow. These five tips borrow from his experiences working with persecuted Christians in some of the most difficult countries on earth. Inthose lands, the persecution climate is mature, but in many way similar to the milder but growing pressures in the West.These insights are drawn from a book authoredby Andy Coleman and published earlier this year. In Days of Darkness: A Manual for Ordinary Christians Facing Unusual Times is a book focused on helping believers prepare themselves, their families and their churches for tougher times.You can order copies of In Days of Darkness: A Manual for Ordinary Christians Facing Unusual Times at Barnes andNoble, Walmart, Target or wherever you find your favorite books.If you found this episode helpful, please give us a positive rating and review wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.

Today I’m talking to a guy who believes every company needs to be built to last—not just to flip. Neil Lansing is a turnaround specialist who left private equity to bet his own money on small, underperforming businesses. He’s taken companies from 18 employees to over 400. From $2 million to $40-50 million in revenue. And when everyone else was laying people off in 2008, he told his refrigeration company’s team: “We need more clients.” After transforming mom-and-pop service companies one after another, he found his final stop, Piedmont Machine & Manufacturing. At 67, he’s not looking for the next flip. He’s building something that will outlast him. ************* Listen on your favorite podcast app using pod.link.     .

But eventually he walked away from working with other people’s money to bet his own cash on small businesses. It wasn’t an easy mental shift. As he told me: “I remember the first time I did something. I was sitting there and I remember, now I’m not in corporate America, I’m not in these nice New York digs… I’m in some place where it’s like, my God, what did I get myself into?” But then he told himself: “Quit crying, figure it out, make it work.” The Five-Person Rule One of Neil’s key insights is his management structure. Nobody has more than five direct reports. Not supervisors, not managers, not even Neil as owner. This tight span of control is how he grew his refrigeration company from 10-18 people to over 400 in six years while maintaining quality and accountability. “Everyone has to do what we’re supposed to do,” he explains. “If we all do what we’re supposed to do and take the accountability of what we’re supposed to do, then it can work.” Growing When Others Retreat The 2008 financial crisis tested every business owner, but Neil’s response was counterintuitive. While the country was laying off 700,000 people a month, he gathered his top 10 guys and said: “We’ve just got to get more clients.” By Christmas, they were bringing in all new work. Then their existing clients–Target, Publix, Costco – suddenly needed massive expansions. Neil went from laying off 40-50 people to desperately hiring them back plus another 40-50 more. Why Manufacturing, Why Now After several successful turnarounds, Neil decided manufacturing would be his next chapter. He bought Piedmont Machine in Concord, North Carolina, seeing opportunity where others saw decline. The company does Swiss machining for smaller diameter work and can handle parts up to 30 inches in diameter—from roller bearing components for landing gear to automated door systems. He envisions growing his company to 80-100 employees, consolidating into a new 60-75,000 square foot facility, and implementing comprehensive training programs. The Grinder’s Legacy Neil calls himself a “grinder” – someone focused on day-to-day execution rather than just deal-making. His philosophy centers on personal responsibility: “If I don’t do what I’m supposed to do, then I can’t pay these people. And if I can’t pay these people, that means that we did it wrong.” What drives someone to keep grinding at 67? Neil says it's about legacy, not money. “Everything I’ve done, it still works. It still runs. If I do something and it goes under or it stops being in existence, then I feel like that’s not a good legacy. That means I didn’t do it right.” Neil doesn’t know how to run a machine and doesn’t want to. He knows how to run a business with clear strategy, deep understanding of people, and balls, and he's still betting big because that’s what real builders do.

Sure built the technology infrastructure enabling the world's biggest consumer brands to embed complex insurance products directly into their core transactions—from auto purchases to home loans. In this episode of BUILDERS, Wayne Slavin shares how Sure pivoted from a consumer mobile app to B2B infrastructure after insurance executives kept pulling engineers into boardrooms to see the backend, why prospects who choose to build end up on Sure's "wall of shame" after their attempts fail, and the vertical integration strategy that could make legacy carriers obsolete within 20 years. Topics Discussed Sure's founding: turbulence on a Vegas flight led to a prototype that converted 15.91% from ad click to insurance purchase The accidental pivot to B2B infrastructure when insurance C-suites started calling people into boardrooms to see Sure's backend system How Sure became "chameleons" matching each partner's corner radius, modal behavior, and loader effects to avoid breaking product experiences The three failed paths that create Sure's best customers: DIY builds, direct carrier partnerships, and naive marketplace strategies Why buy-versus-build objections signal misaligned incentives—enterprise buyers trading career-safe "buy" budgets for execution-risk "build" projects The vertical integration roadmap: from collaborative carrier partnerships toward turnkey solutions backed by sovereign wealth funds AppleCare as the embedded insurance template: multi-decabillion dollar business now integrated into device selection, storage, color, and financing flows GTM Lessons For B2B Founders Run weekend demand tests before year-long regulatory builds: Wayne built a prototype over a long weekend and drove traffic through Google and Facebook ads to test first principles—do people want to buy insurance online, how soon before travel, how much coverage? The 15.91% conversion rate justified committing a full year to regulatory partnerships before bringing on a team. For founders in regulated spaces, creative demand validation derisks the compliance investment required before launch. Watch what gets pulled into the boardroom: Sure pitched their mobile app to insurance C-suites who responded with polite interest. Then executives started calling colleagues into meetings specifically to see Sure's backend operations system—the infrastructure they'd spent hundreds of millions trying to build. After three or four meetings with the same pattern, Wayne realized the backend was the product. Pay attention when prospects ignore your intended offering but get animated about something else entirely. Target solution-aware buyers who've already failed: Sure's most successful customers fall into three categories: those who tried building themselves and lost institutional knowledge when engineers left, those who partnered directly with carriers who took customers away and sold them competing products, or those who naively tried offering 50 insurance options when California markets now have two viable carriers. Wayne explicitly doesn't consider prospects choosing to build as their ICP—they lack awareness of execution risk and will waste Sure's time before returning years later. Treat build decisions as pipeline, not losses: A prospect from 2020 called yesterday after their DIY attempt resulted in three people leaving the company with nobody understanding how their cobbled system works. Sure maintains a "wall of shame" tracking decision-makers who chose to build and no longer work at those companies. For infrastructure plays with 18-36 month sales cycles, maintain relationships with build-path prospects—they're future pipeline once reality hits. Product integration depth wins embedded deals: Sure's differentiation isn't database speed—it's becoming invisible within partners' products. Wayne describes matching exact corner radius, modal patterns, and loader effects so product teams don't fight the insurance insertion. This requires deep product expertise across partners' stacks. For embedded solutions, technical flexibility that respects existing UX decisions matters more than raw performance metrics. Sure enables complex insurance purchases without customers touching their keyboard—everything pre-filled from partner data. Map internal buyer incentives in enterprise deals: Wayne observed that enterprise buyers face perverse incentives: requesting more budget and resources for build projects looks good internally, but they're unknowingly trading stable "buy" expenditures for career-ending execution risk. Large companies will pay "a bajillion dollars to Salesforce" because it works and removes risk, not because anyone loves it. Help champions articulate how buying derisks their execution versus the alternative—it's not about your product superiority, it's about their job security. //   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.

A professional mover, personality, and director, she's appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, starred in national campaigns (Android Wear, Target), and most recently served as Assistant Choreographer for Shakira.In this conversation, Dytto traces her path from studio kid and cheerleader to self-driven freestyler, sharing how an alter ego helped her overcome stage fright and claim a unique lane in a male-dominated popping/animation space. She breaks down the business: why brand deals followed when she started talking (not just dancing), how she balances content “pillars,” and the realities of name usage, credits, and trademarking a stage name.We also dive into monetization (and why dancing to copyrighted music pays everyone but the dancer), creating original music (Fembot Files), and her upcoming training app The Next Move—a practical system for turning freestyle fear into confidence. In the live Q&A she offers concrete drills, mindset resets, and career advice on evolving publicly, navigating street vs. commercial worlds, booking without auditions, and staying grounded in who you are—especially when everyone's watching.Shownotes:(0:00) – Welcome & intro: “Barbie Girl” viral phenom joins the show(2:13) – Early dance journey: from studio kid to freestyler(4:27) – The making of “Barbie Girl” — purpose behind the moment(6:20) – Creating “Dytto”: alter ego that conquered stage fright(11:43) – Managing identity: real name vs. stage name(15:50) – Viral momentum → brand deals, Ellen, and global recognition(19:47) – $100K brand deal & secret to attracting sponsorships(25:16) – New ventures: launching The Next Move freestyle app(26:56) – Owning creativity: why she makes her own music (Fembot Files)(1:18:16) – Final reflections: authenticity, vulnerability, and self-beliefBiography:Dytto, the fembot icon of the dance community, is a professional mover, personality, and director.
