As I wrap up 2025, I wanted to record an episode that goes deeper than trends (but YES, my annual trends prediction is coming up next!)— because what I'm seeing across the industry right now isn't necessarily a lack of ideas.It's a lack of foundations.BLOG for this episodeAfter a full year of interviewing indoor playground and play café owners, working through countless 1:1 sessions, and supporting owners inside Play Maker Society, the same patterns keep showing up — regardless of location, size, or years in business.Owners are busy, but still stressed.They're marketing constantly, but not converting.They're deeply involved, but exhausted.This episode brings together the seven pieces of advice I'm giving to (and getting from!) current owners right now — not based on theory or predictions, but on what I'm actively seeing work (and not work) in real businesses.These are the areas where small leaks are creating big problems — and where tightening the fundamentals can immediately change how a business feels to run in terms of quality of life for YOU, the owner.In this episode, I break down:Why what you post matters more than how often you postHow most websites and patched-together booking systems quietly lose you moneyWhy open play can't be the thing holding your business upHow recurring and high-ticket revenue change how the business feels to runWhy email is still one of the most effective tools owners aren't fully usingHow cafés, retail, and small add-ons raise spend per visit without more trafficWhat actually has to be in place for you to step out without everything breakingI also share real examples from owners I've interviewed, coached, and worked alongside — including how some have intentionally reduced owner dependency, diversified revenue, and designed businesses that work even when they're not physically present.This episode isn't about adding more to your plate. It's about tightening what's already there and focusing on the few things that actually make a difference right now.If you're heading into 2026 feeling busy but still stretched thin, this will help you get clear on where your attention really needs to go next.RESOURCES/ BUSINESSES MENTIONED:BLOG for this episodeLittle Leaf Play IGLittle Play Avenue IG(BLOG) Maximizing Cafe Profits (And Why You NEED A Cafe)Evergeen Facebook + IG Ad BasicsGoogle Ad BasicsInterview with Jayci From Tiny PlayInterview with Justine from Liv and MimisInterview with Jessalyn from The Playroom WVThe Art Factory and Party PlaceGrandma's PlayroomOTHER RESOURCES:Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyGetting Started With Your Play Cafe [YouTube Video Playlist]What's Working In The Indoor Play Industry 2025 GuideFund Your Indoor Play Business [Free Training]Indoor Play Courses & 1:1 Consulting WaitlistMichele's InstagramMichele's WebsitePlay Cafe Academy YouTube ChannelETSY Template ShopPrepare Your Indoor Playground For a RecessionPlay Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com TOOLS & OTHER LINKS:Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers Society: http://bit.ly/3HES7fDQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com Simplify and Scale with 50% OFF WellnessLivingActive Campaign Free TrialFree Demo of Aluvii All-In-One POS

In this episode, HeHe is joined by Dr. O'Daniel to break down the real tools and procedures used in labor and delivery, the ones no one explains until they're suddenly happening to your body. Together, they unpack what tests like the ROM actually tell us about water breaking, when internal monitors like an IUPC are used, and what patients deserve to know before anything is placed inside their body. They also dive into operative vaginal deliveries, including vacuums and forceps, how clinical decision-making works in those moments, and why true informed consent matters so much when things move quickly. Dr. O'Daniel explains newer innovations like the Traxi for safer C-sections in larger bodies and the Life Bubble, a game-changing tool for supporting NICU babies. This conversation is evidence-based, honest, and incredibly empowering, especially if you want to walk into birth understanding the tools, not fearing them. Knowledge is advocacy, and this episode gives you plenty of both.   Guest Bio: Dr. Tori O'Daniel is a Board-Certified OB/GYN whom has been practicing for 14 years. For the past 11 years she has been an OB/GYN Hospitalist at Mercy Medical Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Dr. O'Daniel is the Medical Director of the OB/GYN Hospitalist program and the Department Chair of the OB/GYN Department in her facility. She also instructs educational classes and facilitates the OB Emergency Simulations for the nurses and physicians within her department.   She has been actively involved in the Society of OB/GYN Hospitalists (SOGH) for the past several years. She currently sits on the SOGH Board of Directors.   Dr. O'Daniel is passionate about education, and she actively teaches in multiple venues.

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, host Jeremiah Byron welcomes Richard D. Priest, Jr., a former U.S. Marine Corps veteran with special operations, reconnaissance, and intelligence training, for a wide-ranging and deeply personal discussion about his decades-long experiences with unexplained phenomena, culminating in multiple encounters inside Washington State's Gifford Pinchot National Forest.Richard begins by outlining his military background, including behind-enemy-lines communications work, special sections training, and reconnaissance experience. He explains how these skills shaped his approach to analyzing anomalous encounters, threat assessment, and field operations. He then recounts how his interest in non-human intelligence began years ago through contact with individuals claiming off-planet communications, leading to research into remote wilderness locations suitable for controlled encounters.The conversation covers Richard's belief that some non-human entities operate from underground and underwater facilities, using advanced technology such as teleportation, surveillance, and directed-energy systems. He describes a past incident in which he believes he was injured by a directed-energy weapon, an event that caused him to sever contact with certain individuals and reevaluate the risks involved.Richard then connects this broader context to his Bigfoot experiences, explaining why he believes Sasquatch may not be an undiscovered primate, but instead non-human intelligences tasked with guarding sensitive locations, including underground access points. He discusses why Bigfoot encounters often involve sudden appearances, disappearing trackways, vocal intimidation, and avoidance of sustained visual contact.

It is available at - https://www.tristarpension.com/tpa/compliance-administration-checklist In this episode, Eric and Shannon Edwards discuss:Understanding fiduciary roles clearlyEvaluating service providers carefullyComparing plan structures strategicallyBuilding knowledge and relationships proactivelyKey Takeaways:Different fiduciary types—3(16), 3(21), 3(38), and 402(a)—carry distinct responsibilities and authority levels. Plan sponsors must still monitor and fulfill their duties, even when delegating to these fiduciaries.Reading service agreements and using checklists clarifies who does what and prevents misunderstandings. Tools like the ARA TPA Checklist help sponsors ask better questions and assess compliance partners effectively.Pooled Employer Plans (PEPs) can expand access but may introduce higher costs, operational complexity, and exit challenges. Sponsors should weigh total cost, services, and fiduciary responsibilities when choosing between PEPs and standalone plans.New benefits managers and advisors benefit from targeted education and responsive compliance partners. Continuous learning and relationship-building ensure fiduciary effectiveness and confident plan management.“Your fiduciary duties are not gone. You are still submitting contributions, you are still supposed to be monitoring your 3(16) fiduciary, you're still supposed to be checking to make sure things are done properly.” - Shannon EdwardsConnect with Shannon Edwards:Website: https://www.tristarpension.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonedwardsplanconsultant/ Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information and content of this podcast are general in nature and are provided solely for educational and informational purposes.

This episode features DeAndre's guest appearance on GeoBreeze Travel Podcast, hosted by Julia Menez. In this conversation, DeAndre revisits the most impactful lessons from the first year of Revolutionizing Your Journey, highlighting practical points-and-miles strategies pulled directly from the show's most popular episodes. Topics include maximizing everyday spending through shopping portals, choosing the right cards based on real data, avoiding common beginner pitfalls, and using simple tools to decide when to pay cash versus points.The episode also weaves in personal travel experiences and redemptions that shaped the show's early direction, offering a clear snapshot of the podcast's travel philosophy. For newer listeners, this serves as a guided recap of key episodes worth revisiting, all conveniently linked in the show notes. And while new recordings are paused during the honeymoon, behind-the-scenes travel moments continue on Instagram—from lie-flat business-class seats to luxury lounges and unforgettable destinations.Key Highlights:Points with purpose: Strong financial habits create the foundation for sustainable travel rewards.Transferable points matter: Flexibility unlocks better redemptions and more destinations.Shopping portals are a force multiplier: Everyday purchases can dramatically accelerate point balances.Data beats guesswork: Card recommendations backed by real spending patterns outperform generic advice.Family travel requires a different strategy: Status benefits and flexibility matter more with larger groups.Avoid analysis paralysis: Perfect redemptions aren't required to create meaningful trips.Tools simplify decisions: Flight comparison plugins and tracking apps remove friction from planning.Buying points can make sense—strategically: Timing and redemption planning determine real value.Status tracking is critical: Missing bonuses or miscalculating limits can erase months of effort.Action creates memories: Points deliver value only when they're redeemed.Episodes mentioned in this guest appearance:Ep. 8 - Unleashing the Power of Lux Travel Hacks with Andy CantuEp. 25 - How to Use Points & Miles to Plan Around-the-World Travel with the Point Sisters Ep. 32 - Maximizing Points and Miles Travel Rewards and Avoiding Pitfalls with Ryan Horn aka @profitsandpoints Ep. 38 - Points or Cash?

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech Training and Pico TechnologyWatch Full Video EpisodeEpisode summaryMatt Fanslow pulls a lesson from an unexpected place: a Parkway Drive studio story involving Killswitch Engage's Adam D. The band tried to force a new sound—clean vocals mixed with screams—and it just wasn't working. The fix? Stop trying to be a different band and lean into what already fits.Matt ties that directly into shop life: not every shop needs to work on every vehicle type or take every job, and not every person needs to be great at every kind of work. Whether it's building around strong mechanical specialists, strong technical specialists, or choosing a narrower service lane, specializing on purpose can be the difference between surviving and thriving.What you'll hear in this episodeWhy the “do everything” mindset can quietly punish shops (and people)A real example of pivoting back to core strengths (and winning bigger because of it)The difference between mechanical specialists and technical specialists—and why both are hard to findWhy “I can buy the tools” doesn't automatically equal “we can do the work well”Checking ego at the door: success doesn't require being everything to everyoneA nod to “reverse benchmarking”: build your identity around what others don't do wellKey takeaways (shop + career)Specialization isn't weakness. It can be the most rational way to deliver consistent quality.Tools and information don't replace capability. They support it—if the people and processes are there.Staffing reality matters. If you don't have the right mechanical specialist or technical specialist, forcing the work in-house can be painful.You can evolve later. Being “not that shop” today doesn't mean “never”—it can mean “not yet.”Identity beats imitation. Trying to match someone else's “genre” can pull you away from what you're actually great at.Bands / people / references mentionedParkway Drive (story + recommendation)Killswitch Engage (Matt's favorite band)Adam D (KSE) and his influence in the studio momentHoward Jones / Jesse Leach (KSE vocalist history)Slipknot (clean vs scream evolution reference)Tour mentions: Summer of Loud (as described), plus bands like The Devil Wears Prada, I Prevail, Beartooth (as mentioned)Sports analogy: Tampa Bay Buccaneers run-heavy approach (and leaning into...

Are you chasing every gold star, climbing every ladder, and nailing every "right" mark—only to find yourself missing out on real fulfillment and meaningful connection? The relentless pursuit of achievement can sometimes leave us feeling lonely, disconnected from ourselves, and trapped in relationships that don't truly nourish our hearts. When ambition runs amok, the cost may be far greater than just burnout or missed vacation days—it can lead to self-abandonment and relationships that feel more like a cage than a home. In this episode, you'll discover how overachievement and perfectionism can sabotage our capacity for genuine connection—and what it takes to turn things around. Through honest storytelling and practical insight, the conversation explores the hidden costs of self-abandonment and the steps toward reclaiming self-worth, authenticity, and aligned love. Whether you're feeling the grind of burnout or yearning for more realness in your relationships, you'll gain tools for slowing down, getting honest with yourself, and opening up to relationships that feel like home. Coach Keren Eldad is an Executive Coach, Speaker, podcast host and the Author of the new book: GILDED - Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition, Perfectionism and the Relentless Pursuit of More.   Episode Highlights 06:18 The roots of self-abandonment: Overachievement and relationship choices. 09:12 Societal pressure and the pursuit of external validation in partner selection. 10:27 Personal story: From self-betrayal to reconstructing identity and worth. 16:07 Building healthy love: The learning curve toward self-connection in relationships. 20:39 Embracing uncertainty: Letting go of control and playing to win in relationships. 26:56 Yellow flags in relationships: Burnout, overfunctioning, and sexless marriages. 31:29 Radical honesty and initiating difficult conversations. 35:51 Centering yourself before addressing relationship issues. 39:54 Tools, coaching, and the path to authentic relationships.   Your Check List of Actions to Take Pause and self-reflect: Practice taking a mindful pause before reacting in relationships to better understand your true feelings and needs. Identify your patterns: Bring awareness to tendencies like overachieving or people-pleasing that may be impacting your connections. Prioritize self-worth: Work on recognizing and affirming your own worth, rather than relying on external validation or achievement. Start small conversations: When something feels off in your relationship, gently broach the subject with curiosity rather than jumping into confrontation. Read for growth: Incorporate reading transformational books by thought leaders to cultivate self-awareness. Seek support: Consider working with a coach or therapist to dig deeper into your personal growth and relationship patterns. Practice radical honesty: Begin being radically honest with yourself about what you want and how you feel, as self-abandonment only perpetuates dissatisfaction. Accept uncertainty: Learn to embrace the unknown in relationships, allowing space for vulnerability and authentic connection rather than controlling outcomes.   Mentioned Gilded: Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition, Perfectionism, and the Relentless Pursuit of More (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Mating in Captivity: Unlocking Erotic Intelligence (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) The Way of Integrity: Finding the Path to Your True Self *Amazon link (book) Dare to Lead (*Amazon link) (book) Marry Him: The Case for Settling for Mr. Good Enough (*Amazon link) (book) The Work of Byron Katie (website) Brene Brown (website) Eckhart Tolle (website) Ram Dass (website) Louise Hay (website) ERP 494: Designing Love That Lasts: 6 Principles for Lasting Connection — An Interview with Dr. Sara Nasserzadeh ERP 174: How to Experience More Love in Your Relationship with Byron Katie 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free guide)   Connect with Keren Elded Websites: KerenEldad.com Facebook: facebook.com/LiveWithEnthusiasm?_rdc=1&_rdr# YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UCgGViwGVn_yrHkq3PQ9R_-Q Instagram: instagram.com/coachkeren/?hl=en LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/keren-eldad Podcast: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coached-with-coach-keren/id1467079024

Welcome back to another episode of School Counseling Simplified. Happy December. Today we are doing a throwback to one of my favorite episodes, all about three must-have data tools for individual counseling. Data collection does not have to be complicated or time consuming. Having simple systems in place allows you to track student progress, guide your sessions, and advocate for your role with confidence. In this episode, I am sharing my three go-to data collection tools for individual counseling and how to use them effectively. Self Assessments Self assessments are pre and post surveys that help you understand how students perceive their own counseling progress. Each question should align with the objective you are teaching during that session, which helps ensure your data is purposeful and meaningful. Questions should be written in age appropriate language and include clear directions at the top. Be sure to include the student's name and the date, and remind students that there are no right or wrong answers. Self assessments can be completed on paper or through a Google Form, which allows you to easily view results and identify trends. These assessments help highlight skill deficits and guide future instruction. Student Rating Scales Student rating scales provide quick insight into how students are feeling session to session. A simple one-to-ten scale works well, allowing students to color in or mark how they are feeling that day. Using large block fonts and visual elements can make this activity more engaging for students. Rating scales are typically completed at the start of each session and provide valuable data that is fast and easy to collect. Behavior Surveys Behavior surveys are sent to teachers and parents to gather information about student behavior across different settings. These surveys should include the topic being addressed, the student's name, the rater's name, the rater's relationship to the student, and the date. Behavior surveys are given at the start of services and again at the end to measure growth over time. Because students often behave differently at home and at school, input from both teachers and caregivers is essential. Google Forms work especially well for collecting and organizing this data. Using Your Data Once you have collected your data, it is important to use it intentionally. Data can be showcased on a data wall displayed in a high traffic area of the school to help bring awareness to the counseling profession and the services you provide. Data can also be used to create individual end of year reports and to drive instruction as you refine and improve your counseling programs. If you are looking for low prep, done-for-you assessments, be sure to check out my individual counseling curriculum.   Resources Mentioned: Join IMPACT Individual counseling super bundle Connect with Rachel: TpT Store Blog Instagram Facebook Page Facebook Group Pinterest Youtube   More About School Counseling Simplified: School Counseling Simplified is a podcast offering easy to implement strategies for busy school counselors.

In this episode of the Federal Help Center Podcast, Randie Ward pulls back the curtain on one of the most frustrating barriers in GovCon: finding the right person to talk to. From leveraging tools like ZoomInfo and federal data sources to dissecting agency budgets and understanding why program managers are intentionally harder to find, this episode shows how winning contractors turn research into access. Eric also explains why relationship-building isn't about one email or one call—it's about consistent, informed follow-ups that position you as prepared, professional, and serious long before an RFP is released. Key Takeaways Finding the right contact is often harder than identifying the opportunity Agency budgets reveal priorities before solicitations exist Relationships are built through persistence, not one-time outreach If you want to learn more about the community and to join the webinars go to: https://federalhelpcenter.com/  Website: https://govcongiants.org/  Connect with Encore Funding: https://www.encore-funding.com/

Summary In this conversation, Ali Damron and Morgana Lakatos Hayward discuss the complexities of perimenopause and menopause, focusing on the hormonal changes that affect women's health, weight loss, and overall well-being. They explore the inadequacies of traditional dieting methods, the importance of understanding women's unique biological needs, and the role of stress and nervous system regulation in health. The discussion also covers the significance of intuitive eating, self-trust, and the challenges faced by women in the sandwich generation. Morgana shares insights from her 60-Day Shed program, emphasizing a holistic approach to health and wellness. Takeaways Many traditional weight loss methods are based on male biology. Cortisol spikes can lead to hormonal imbalances and weight gain. Fasting may not be suitable for all women, especially during hormonal fluctuations. Chronic dieting can lead to a negative relationship with food. Nervous system regulation is crucial for managing stress and health. Building self-trust is essential for successful intuitive eating. Women in the sandwich generation face unique stressors and challenges. Perimenopause can be reframed as a positive transition phase. HRT and supplements should complement a solid lifestyle foundation. Creating a sustainable lifestyle involves understanding individual needs and preferences.

Chris Morris is an author, speaker, and ministry leader helping others navigate depression, suicidal thoughts, and emotional pain through the integration of theology, therapy-informed tools, and spiritual formation. In 2020, Chris reached a breaking point. After a suicide attempt, he experienced a life-altering encounter with God—one marked by a simple but radical message: “I still love you.” That moment became the foundation for his healing journey and a renewed approach to mental health, faith, and community. A graduate of Northern Seminary, Chris brings depth, humor, and theological insight to complex mental health conversations. He is the author of Resilient and Redeemed, Trucking Toward Tenacity, and By Faith, and is a sought-after speaker at national events, including the Disability and the Church Conference. In this episode, Chris and host Erin Kerry talk honestly about rock-bottom moments, what the church often misses in mental health conversations, how community reshapes our healing stories, and practical rhythms—like morning routines—that support emotional resilience and hope. If you've ever wondered whether your mental health struggles disqualify you from God's love, this conversation is for you.

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, a truck driver shares one of the most unsettling and emotional Sasquatch encounters ever documented. While hiking and practicing bushcraft in the Southern California mountains, he comes face-to-face with a massive, humanoid figure unlike any Bigfoot description he had ever heard before. What follows is a prolonged visual encounter, detailed physical observations, and an experience that challenges everything we think we know about Sasquatch behavior.Years later, during a remote stay in the same mountain region, the witness believes the same mysterious being saved his life by aggressively warning him of an approaching wildfire—throwing rocks at his shelter until he escaped just moments before the flames arrived. The encounter left him convinced that whatever he encountered was intelligent, aware, and protective rather than hostile.

What does it really take to go from paralyzing fear and emotional confusion to courageous clarity and freedom? In Part 2 of our conversation, Coach LeAnne Parsons continues her heart-stirring dialogue with three women who bravely walked the journey of healing inside Empowered to Change. This week, we go deeper—unpacking the exact tools, mindset shifts, and faith-filled decisions that helped them disentangle their lives and rediscover who they truly are in Christ. If you've ever felt stuck in shame, unsure if you could trust again, or wondered if real change is even possible—this episode is your answer. Key Takeaways from Today's Episode Why They Finally Said Yes to Healing Each woman shares her unique tipping point—the moment when the pain of staying the same outweighed the fear of stepping into the unknown. For some, it was physical symptoms. For others, it was the ache of isolation. But for all three, it became clear: it was time to stop surviving and start healing. The Power of Safe, Christ-Centered Community Healing happens in the light. From hesitant strangers to trusted sisters, these women describe how their Empowered to Change group became a safe haven where their stories were honored, their pain was validated, and their growth was celebrated—without judgment, shame, or superficial fixes. Tools that Actually Change Lives From practicing hard conversations in the mirror, to disentangling emotional confusion with thought journals and boundaries, these women used practical tools that reshaped how they thought, spoke, and showed up in their relationships. This isn't inspiration for inspiration's sake—it's real transformation, step-by-step. Confidence Built on Courage, Not Perfection They didn't wait until they felt “ready” or confident. They showed up afraid—but they showed up. And as they practiced courage in community, confidence followed. As Christine beautifully shared, “Confidence is the fruit of choosing courage—even when your voice shakes”. Sustainable Change for the Long Haul Nearly five years after completing Empowered to Change, these women are still growing, still connected, and still walking in truth. They've moved from reactive living to intentional, Christ-centered wholeness—testifying that healing isn't a one-time moment, but a lifestyle of learning, growing, and living loved. Ready to Step Into a New Chapter? If their stories stirred something in your heart, maybe it's your time too. Empowered to Change is a six-month coaching journey for Christian women who are ready to stop surviving and start growing. Whether you're in a hard marriage, dealing with past wounds, or trying to reclaim your voice—you don't have to walk it alone.

In this episode, Gene Hammett interviews AJ Cassata, founder of Revenue Boost, about AI-driven lead generation in B2B marketing. AJ emphasizes the collaborative use of AI in sales, warns against full outsourcing, and explains his "10-80-10 rule." He discusses the effectiveness of outbound strategies like cold emailing and LinkedIn messaging, stressing the importance of personalization and audience segmentation. AJ recommends tools like Clay.com for automating outreach and concludes with key factors for successful campaigns, urging listeners to embrace AI while maintaining human oversight and persistence. Episode Highlights & Time Stamps 1:15 The Power of AI in Sales 2:57 Challenges in B2B Sales 5:10 Email vs. LinkedIn Effectiveness 8:35 Standing Out on LinkedIn 11:24 Leveraging AI for Personalization 14:18 Common Mistakes in AI Outbound 17:13 The Future of AI in Outbound 20:33 Enhancing Sales with AI 21:57 Key Takeaways for CEOs AI in Modern Sales — Collaboration Over Automation Gene speaks with AJ Cassata, founder of Revenue Boost, about using AI in B2B outbound sales. AJ explains that AI should be treated as a collaborative partner rather than a replacement for human judgment. He cautions against fully outsourcing sales and marketing to AI due to its tendency to "hallucinate" or generate inaccuracies. AJ introduces his "10-80-10 rule," where humans control strategy and final review while AI handles execution at scale. Why Outbound Sales Still Works AJ breaks down why outbound sales, cold email, cold calling, and LinkedIn outreach remain a highly effective and cost-efficient lead generation channel. He emphasizes the importance of testing different approaches and targeting specific industries or companies to generate high-quality leads. The conversation compares email and LinkedIn outreach, noting LinkedIn's higher response rates but lower scalability versus email's broader reach and lower engagement. Personalization, Empathy, and Common Mistakes The discussion turns to practical outreach tactics, with AJ stressing the importance of deep personalization through prospect research and industry understanding. He advises focusing messaging on the prospect's needs rather than promoting services. AJ outlines common AI-powered outbound mistakes, including low outreach volume, generic messaging, and poor audience segmentation, reinforcing that tailored messaging is critical for resonance. Tools, Strategy, and Keys to Success AJ highlights tools like Clay.com that support AI-driven lead research and personalized outreach. He discusses AI's evolving role in sales, particularly for tasks like scheduling and qualification, while underscoring the continued need for human oversight. As the episode concludes, AJ shares five key drivers of outbound success: list quality, messaging, offer strength, outreach volume, and email deliverability. He encourages leaders to experiment, iterate, and remain patient when leveraging AI-powered outbound strategies to grow their sales pipeline. Key Takeaways AI is a force multiplier, not a replacement. AI delivers the best results when paired with human strategy, oversight, and decision-making rather than fully automating sales and marketing functions. Outbound sales remains a high-ROI growth channel. Cold email, cold calling, and LinkedIn outreach continue to produce quality leads at a lower cost compared to many inbound or paid marketing channels. Strategy should follow the 10-80-10 rule. CEOs should stay involved in setting direction and reviewing outcomes while leveraging AI for scalable execution in the middle. Personalization drives performance. Outreach that demonstrates understanding of a prospect's business and challenges consistently outperforms generic, AI-generated messaging. Volume and focus both matter. Effective outbound requires sufficient outreach volume paired with clear segmentation and targeted messaging to avoid diminishing returns. Technology enables scale, not shortcuts. Tools like AI-powered research and personalization platforms can accelerate outbound efforts, but poor inputs still lead to poor results. Human oversight reduces AI risk. AI can hallucinate or make incorrect assumptions, making review and refinement essential before deployment. Five factors determine outbound success. List quality, messaging clarity, offer strength, outreach volume, and email deliverability must all work together for consistent results. Iteration beats perfection. Sustainable outbound success comes from continuous testing, learning, and refinement rather than one-time campaign execution. Leadership mindset matters. CEOs who embrace AI experimentation while maintaining accountability and patience are better positioned to build predictable, scalable pipelines.

Since the pandemic, the way dentists and specialists learn has shifted dramatically from conferences and study clubs to phones, apps, and other content, but not all digital education is created equal. In this episode, Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes back Denver oral and maxillofacial surgeon Dr. Tom Stone to explore how healthcare education has changed, why today's clinicians expect “consumer-grade” learning experiences, and how drtalk is designed to meet them where they are. Dr. Stone explains why specialist-led education remains one of the most powerful practice builders, how teaching treatment planning can transform the implant revenue cycle, and why traditional in-person events experienced a steep decline even before the COVID-19 pandemic.

One of the most common questions Steven hears from financial advisors is "What software can I use to help with that?". In this week's episode, Steven is joined by Nitrogen's Chief Product Officer, Justin Boatman, to discuss the latest entry into the tax software category: Nitrogen's AI Tax Center. Justin shares the background of why Nitrogen picked taxes as the topic for their newest tool and shares how they have designed the tool to enhance the client experience, not simply do math. Steven and Justin discuss the importance of taxes in any financial planning conversation and the overlap of needing great operators regardless of how great a tool something is.  

Jorge Suarez joins The PowerShell Podcast to share his journey into PowerShell, automation, and community contribution. From attending his first MMS conference to building creative and practical PowerShell projects, Jorge talks about how PowerShell became the primary driver of his career growth. The conversation covers his popular Intune Hydration Kit, creative TUI projects inspired by shows like Severance, and how curiosity and experimentation led him to build tools he wished existed earlier in his career.   Beyond tooling, Jorge opens up about imposter syndrome, learning in public, and using PowerShell as a force multiplier to automate work, stand out professionally, and think differently about problem solving.   Key Takeaways: PowerShell accelerates careers – Automating repetitive work and forcing yourself to use PowerShell daily builds fluency and opens new opportunities. Build what you wish you had – Jorge's projects, including Intune Hydration Kit and multiple TUI tools, came from solving his own real-world problems. Imposter syndrome is fuel – When managed well, it can drive curiosity, learning, and long-term growth instead of holding you back. Guest Bio: Jorge Suarez is an Endpoint Platform Engineer and PowerShell enthusiast. Jorge is known for building creative PowerShell solutions—including terminal user interfaces and Intune automation projects. He's an active community contributor who blogs, shares code on GitHub, and advocates for learning in public.   Resource Links: Jorge Suarez on GitHub – https://github.com/jorgeasaurus Jorge's Blog – https://www.jorgeasaur.us/ Intune Hydration Kit – https://github.com/jorgeasaurus/IntuneHydrationKit Connect with Andrew - https://andrewpla.tech/links PDQ Discord – https://discord.gg/PDQ PowerShell Wednesdays – https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=PowerShell+Wednesdays The PowerShell Podcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/NEDX_3kDhZQ

Unser heutiger Gast hat Medien- und Kommunikationsmanagement studiert und früh gelernt, wie stark gute Kommunikation und vertrauensvolle Beziehungen wirken können – und was passiert, wenn sie fehlen. Sie war viele Jahre bei Bosch tätig, zunächst in der Assistenz, dann in klassischen Projektrollen, später als Impulsgeberin und Transformationsbegleiterin für eine neue Arbeitswelt. Sie führte Bosch' erste globale Plattform für Zusammenarbeit ein – und war lange die zentrale Figur hinter Deutschlands größter Working Out Loud-Bewegung im Konzern. Doch sie wollte mehr: Mehr Wirksamkeit, mehr Menschlichkeit – und mehr Fokus auf das, was Veränderung wirklich trägt. Nach 18 Jahren Konzern wechselte sie in die Selbstständigkeit, gründete mit Connecting Humans eine Beratung für Transformation und gesunde Hochleistungsteams und startete das Format Working Out Loud #FrauenStärken, das sich an Frauen richtet, die in Netzwerken wachsen und wirken wollen. Seit über acht Jahren beschäftigen wir uns in diesem Podcast mit der Frage, wie Arbeit den Menschen stärkt, statt ihn zu schwächen. Wir haben in mehr als 500 Episoden mit fast 700 Persönlichkeiten darüber gesprochen, was sich für sie verändert hat – und was sich noch verändern muss. Wir fragen: Was motiviert Menschen, nach 18 Jahren erfolgreicher Konzernkarriere in die Selbstständigkeit zu gehen – und damit ein neues Kapitel zu beginnen? Welche Rolle spielen Beziehungen, Netzwerke und soziale Fitness in einer Welt, die immer schneller, digitaler und unübersichtlicher wird? Und wie können Formate wie #FrauenStärken echte Wirkung entfalten – jenseits von Buzzwords und Event-Hype? Fest steht: Für die Lösung unserer aktuellen Herausforderungen brauchen wir neue Impulse. Daher suchen wir weiter nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Erfahrungen, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näherbringen. Darüber hinaus beschäftigt uns von Anfang an die Frage, ob wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben können, was sie im Innersten wirklich, wirklich wollen. Ihr seid bei On the Way to New Work, heute mit Katharina Krenz. [Hier](https://linktr.ee/onthewaytonewwork) findet ihr alle Links zum Podcast und unseren aktuellen Werbepartnern

284 - Discover the Foolproof FSBO Method with Tim Street   In this episode of the Real Estate Investor Growth Network Podcast, host Jen Josey welcomes Tim Street, a Marine veteran, real estate entrepreneur, and former top-producing agent. Tim shares his journey from a failed for-sale-by-owner (FSBO) seller to an advocate for empowering everyday homeowners and investors to sell their properties smarter, faster, and with more confidence—without losing hard-earned equity to unnecessary commissions. The conversation is packed with actionable insights for both seasoned investors and those just starting out, with Tim's signature blend of radical honesty and practical advice.   Tim explains the common pitfalls that lead most FSBO sellers to fail and why protecting your equity is especially crucial for investors who rely on leverage to grow their portfolios. He dives deep into the psychology and strategy behind pricing, prepping, and marketing properties, emphasizing the importance of radical honesty, data-driven pricing, and leveraging social proof through creative open house tactics. Jen and Tim also discuss how small details, like professional photos and narrative-driven listings, can make a major difference, and why DIY sellers must never cut corners on legal and disclosure requirements.   The episode concludes with a rapid-fire "BADASS" round, where Tim shares the book that changed his life, the advice that drives him, his daily systems for success, and what true fulfillment means to him. Whether you're an investor considering your next exit strategy or a homeowner looking to maximize your sale, this episode is packed with practical tools, heartfelt motivation, and Tim's refreshing candor. Key Takeaways Protect Your Equity: Every dollar saved on selling costs can be leveraged into your next investment—don't let unnecessary commissions eat into your profits. Radical Honesty Sells: Conduct a pre-listing inspection, fix what matters, and share the report with buyers to build trust and authority. Price Based on Data, Not Emotion: Use true comps, understand your market boundaries, and adjust quickly based on market response—not wishful thinking. Market Creatively: Host exclusive neighbor open houses to build social proof and excitement, and use professional photos and narrative-rich descriptions to stand out. Never DIY the Legal Side: Always use a real estate attorney or title company for paperwork and disclosures to avoid costly mistakes and lawsuits. Guest Bio: Tim Street Tim Street is a Marine veteran, real estate entrepreneur, and former top-producing agent dedicated to changing how people sell their homes. After experiencing the frustrations and financial pitfalls of selling his own property, Tim created Foolproof FSBO, a system that gives everyday sellers the tools, strategies, and confidence to succeed without paying exorbitant commissions. He's passionate about helping investors and homeowners keep more of their equity through education, radical honesty, and practical guidance—offering free resources, coaching, and a step-by-step blueprint for those ready to take control of their sales process.
