Leverage Your Incredible Factor Business Podcast with Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, MBA
The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode. And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making. That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. Are you a woman who makes more than your man? Does it stifle your confidence in how you show up in your business? Do you secretly fear growing your business to 7 figures because it may tank your relationship? In this week's full length episode of the Move to Millions Podcast, REWIND When She Makes More: Redefining Power, Partnership & Profits At Home, Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon discusses the emotional and relational shifts women face when they out-earn their partners. She explores how to navigate power dynamics in relationships and redefine partnerships while managing financial success. Learn how to create a harmonious balance between business success and home life, empowering women to embrace their success without guilt or tension. Dr. Darnyelle shares actionable strategies to have honest money conversations, involve your partner in your financial goals, and build a relationship where both partners thrive. This episode is essential for women entrepreneurs who are navigating the unique challenges of earning more than their spouse while maintaining a strong and supportive relationship. This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I am a success from the bedroom to the boardroom. My success fuels my marriage and solidifies my millions. I know that I can have it all – a loving, fulfilling marriage and career and I can do so without resentment, relationship issues or relying on the status quo. I balance the power dynamics in my relationship with grace, ensuring that my financial success enhances, rather than disrupts, the harmony at home. I lead with confidence, knowing that my business growth strengthens my partnership and uplifts my family. As I step confidently into my role as a seven-figure CEO, I ensure that my success is a blessing for my marriage, my family and my business." Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation 3 Actionable Tips: Have Honest Conversations About Money: Make it a priority to sit down with your partner and have a candid discussion about money, roles, and expectations. Transparency will help eliminate any underlying tension or resentment. Share your financial goals, concerns, and vision for the future together. Reframe Success as a Shared Opportunity: Rather than seeing your success as something that creates division or competition, reframe it as a shared opportunity. Make sure your partner feels included in your journey. When you achieve a business milestone, celebrate it together and share the vision for how it benefits the entire family. Establish Clear Financial Roles and Boundaries: Set up recurring financial meetings with your partner to align on household finances, long-term goals, and expectations. Whether it's a monthly check-in or a bigger financial planning session, make sure both parties feel equally involved and empowered in managing the finances. Affirm with me: "I am a success from the bedroom to the boardroom. My success fuels my marriage and solidifies my millions. I know that I can have it all – a loving, fulfilling marriage and career and I can do so without resentment, relationship issues or relying on the status quo. I balance the power dynamics in my relationship with grace, ensuring that my financial success enhances, rather than disrupts, the harmony at home. I lead with confidence, knowing that my business growth strengthens my partnership and uplifts my family. As I step confidently into my role as a seven-figure CEO, I ensure that my success is a blessing for my marriage, my family and my business." And this week's journal prompts are: "I feel empowered in my relationship and business when I... " "To enhance the balance between my career and marriage, I will... " "The financial success I'm creating will positively impact my family by... " And Your Prayer Of The Week: Dear God, We thank You for the wisdom You provide us in every area of our lives, especially as we navigate the complexities of success, power, and partnership. We pray for the strength and courage to embrace our financial power and not shrink from it. Help us create a harmonious balance between our business success and our relationships, and give us the clarity to communicate openly with our partners. May we find peace in knowing that our success is a blessing for our families, and may we honor both our individual and shared roles in the relationship. Guide us to a space of mutual respect, understanding, and prosperity. In Your name, I pray. And So it Is. Amen.

Medsider Radio: Learn from Medical Device and Medtech Thought Leaders
In this episode of Medsider Radio, we sat down with Howard Rosen, co-Founder and CEO of Evident Vascular, a company developing an AI-powered intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) platform to improve vascular imaging and intervention. Before co-founding Evident, Howard held senior leadership roles at Intact Vascular and Vesper Medical, guiding both companies through successful acquisitions by Philips. He also served in executive roles at Haemonetics and BG Medicine, and spent over two decades at Boston Scientific, where he held a range of leadership positions across the peripheral and cardiovascular franchises.In this interview, Howard shares why launching right — not fast — is the key to success in medtech.

Is AI the new “Need” from The Lorax—a shiny invention that looks harmless but comes with hidden costs? That's the tough question we're asking in today's episode, and the answer might change how you see both technology and energy forever. We're diving headfirst into whether artificial intelligence is truly a tool for abundance or just another story of progress that leaves us worse off. We have a new show on Lions of Liberty! The Politicks Podcast! Be sure to subscribe to the standalone Politicks Podcast feed. This is the absolute best way to support the show! Listen and subscribe on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. And remember, they're all Blood Suckers! Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS Think about it: the Lorax warned us about cutting down truffula trees for a quick buck, but are we repeating that story today with AI? People celebrate chatbots, automation, and algorithms, but nobody asks the deeper question—what powers it all? The servers behind ChatGPT don't run on “good vibes” or environmental slogans. They run on massive amounts of energy, and right now, that means fossil fuels. In this episode, we break down the uncomfortable truth: without fossil fuels, AI doesn't exist. Net Zero activists may dream of a world powered by renewables, but the demand for AI is exploding faster than windmills and solar farms can keep up. From corporate ESG mandates to government green agendas, we're seeing a collision between fantasy and reality—and that's where the future of innovation hangs in the balance. But here's the twist: like the Lorax story, there's more at play than just the danger of cutting too many trees—or in this case, burning too much fuel. What if AI isn't just a flashy “need” but actually a tool that unlocks real abundance? From customer service to medical breakthroughs, from fighting human trafficking to expanding education, AI has the power to lift people up. The real question is: will we let fear and bad policy choke off that potential before it has the chance to grow? This episode isn't just about AI or energy—it's about how we think about progress itself. Is creation good, or should we always apologize for building? Is innovation dangerous, or is it the only way we survive and thrive? If you've ever wondered what the Lorax would say about ChatGPT, fossil fuels, and the future of human flourishing, you can't afford to miss this conversation.

CASEY'S GENERAL STORES, INC.At last year's annual meeting in August, shareholders were asked YES or NO on CEO Darren Robelez's pay plan. To help them make a decision on the pay practices they had information like the ratio of the annual total compensation of Casey's General Stores CEO to that of its median employee for the 2024 fiscal year, commonly known as the CEO Pay Ratio. Let's begin the quiz there:According to the company's SEC filing, at what point in the fiscal year 2024 did CEO Darren earn the compensation of his company's median employee?12:35:33 PM on January 1st, the first day of the work year, meaning his pay CEO pay ratio was 579:1Additionally, the CEO's target equity award was $6.7M. In the worst case scenario where every single peer company outperformed Casey's General Stores in terms of total shareholder return, how much equity could the CEO receive?$5,025,000, reflecting a TSR Modifier of -25%.Accordingly, based in part on the information you have just learned, what percentage of Casey's shareholders voted against his pay practices?2%Bonus question: According to the company's 2025 SEC filing, at what point in the fiscal year 2025 did CEO Darren earn the compensation of his company's median employee? Remember, it was 12:35:33 PM on January 1st, the first day of the work year.12:32:05 PM on January 1st, the first day of the work year: 3 minutes and 28 seconds earlier.

Rebelez (33%) & Gregory A. Trojan (14%)CROWDSTRIKE HOLDINGS, INC.A recent Fortune article called Laying off workers because of AI is more of a fashionable excuse than a real business imperative cites CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz linking 5% job cuts to the cybersecurity company's need to double down on AI investments to “accelerate execution and efficiency.” Kurtz said: “AI flattens our hiring curve, and helps us innovate from idea to product faster.”First question, are CrowdStrike shareholders also given the privilege to “accelerate execution and efficiency”? How many total years does it take for a CrowdStrike investor to vote on all nine board members?3 years, classified board.This is important because clearly shareholders were not completely pleased this year: 34% said NO Pay Committee Chair Cary Davis while 38% said NO to Nomination Committee chair Laura Schumacher2% NO CEO KurtzConsidering the board influence of Founder/CEO/Director and third largest shareholder George Kurtz, investors would typically be best served with a board provides an effective counterbalance to his control. Of the board's eight independent directors, what percentage has served for at least a decade alongside Kurtz?Four directors, or half.Again, to counteract his control, investors should expect regular board refreshment. How many new directors have joined the board in the last 5 years?One, Johanna Flower, the only director who sits on zero board committees. She joined the board in January 2023Kurtz already owns $2.7B of Crowdstrike shares. What percentage of his annual pay consists of equity?90%, with a target equity award of $35M.Finally, CrowdStrike's infamous 2024 software update is commonly described as what?The largest outage in the history of information technology.In 2024, CrowdStrike released a software update that disrupted millions of Microsoft Windows systems around the worldA faulty update to its Falcon sensor platform led to the "Blue Screen of Death" on millions of machines, bringing critical operations to a standstill across numerous sectors.The immediate and most visible impact was the widespread and severe disruption to the global economy. The financial toll is estimated to be in the billions of dollars. Key sectors affected include:Aviation: Major airlines like Delta, United, and American Airlines grounded thousands of flights, disrupting travel for millions and costing airlines hundreds of millions of dollars.Healthcare: Access to electronic health records was hindered, leading to the cancellation of surgeries and appointments. This disruption posed a direct risk to patient care and safety.Financial Services: Banks and financial institutions faced outages that affected everything from ATM services to online banking and stock trading. This not only resulted in financial losses but also eroded consumer confidence.Government and Emergency Services: The outage impacted various government agencies and even emergency services in some areas, highlighting a significant threat to public safety and national security.For Mr. Kurtz, the amount for fiscal 2025 also includes approximately (i) $104,279 for costs related to personal security for Mr. Kurtz and his family at his residences and (ii) $898,426 for costs related to personal usage of private aircraft.As part of our sales and marketing activities, we sponsor a CrowdStrike-branded professional racing car, which Mr. Kurtz drives in some races at no incremental cost to us and in lieu of us hiring a professional driver. As we do not pay any amounts to Mr. Kurtz under these arrangements, it is not reflected in the above table.No vote on payTARGET CORPORATIONTarget foot traffic is still suffering 6 months post-boycott. An industry veteran says the retailer's problems are bigger than curtailing DEITarget Boycott Leader Jamal Bryant Is Arriving on CEOs' Radar ScreensInside Target, Frustrated Employees and Search for New CEOThis article from the WSJ says:Many Target shoppers are frustrated with the retailer. Many Target employees are too.In early June, a companywide survey showed that roughly half of Target's employees didn't think the company was making the changes necessary to compete effectively.

Leverage Your Incredible Factor Business Podcast with Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, MBA
“Just because everyone is chasing it doesn't mean it's aligned for you. Validation is expensive—and it's not always required.” – Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon Most entrepreneurs crave external validation—but what if chasing accolades is actually costing you more than it's worth? In this bold and brutally honest rewind of a viral fan-favorite episode, Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon pulls back the curtain on why she made the conscious decision not to reapply for the Inc 5000, even after making the list two years in a row and generating millions in verified revenue. This episode is not a takedown—it's a wake-up call for seven-figure CEOs who want to build legacies, not illusions. Whether you're dreaming of the Inc 5000 or already on it, this episode will challenge everything you believe about validation, profitability, and strategic visibility. From the real numbers behind application costs to the emotional toll of comparison, you'll walk away with clarity on when to pursue public recognition—and when to walk away. For the millions-minded entrepreneur who's done hustling for applause and is ready to move in divine alignment, this conversation is your compass. This episode is a call to stop equating visibility with viability. Dr. Darnyelle dismantles the glorified chase for third-party accolades and replaces it with a deeper standard—one that measures success by profitability, purpose, and alignment with your divine assignment. If you're obsessed with being seen but your margins are shrinking, this episode is your course correction. This is your invitation to ditch the applause and own your power. If you've ever questioned whether recognition was serving your next level—or simply stroking your ego—this episode is a must-listen. Stop what you're doing and tune in. The real flex is not another award—it's profitability, peace, and purpose. Here's the Truth: Getting on a prestigious list might feed your ego, but it won't fix your business. Visibility without strategy is vanity. In this episode, Dr. Darnyelle reveals the hidden costs of chasing awards—including how she spent five figures just to prove what she'd already built. When you know who sent you, you don't need outside approval. Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook and listen in to discover: A behind-the-scenes look at what the Inc 5000 process really costs A framework for deciding when public recognition aligns with your growth Confidence to validate your success without external applause How to discern if an award like Inc 5000 fits your current business season How to create a monetization strategy around recognition (if you pursue it) How to shift from comparison to conviction when making high-level decisions 5 Questions to Ask Yourself While Listening: Am I chasing recognition or building legacy? Have I created a monetization strategy for my visibility? Is my desire to apply rooted in comparison or calling? What investments are actually moving my business forward? Do I need external validation—or do I need to trust my impact? 5 Powerful Quotes from the Episode: “Once you know better, you do better. And I know better now.” – Dr. Darnyelle “The Inc 5000 is paid media. I don't need to pay someone to validate what God already approved.” – Dr. Darnyelle “The true CEOs aren't just making millions—they're keeping millions.” – Dr. Darnyelle “It's not a flex to burn out for visibility.” – Dr. Darnyelle quoting a colleague “If you're going to get on the list, you better have a strategy to make it work for your business.” – Dr. Darnyelle Resources Mentioned: Move to Millions by Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon – Get Your Copy Companion Guide for Move to Millions – Download for a detailed overview of the seven systems to seven figures.
