Guest: Deric Keller - Certified Business Coach with Exit Momentum, former $10M business ownerEpisode Overview: Financial advisor David Chudyk interviews business coach Deric Keller about strategies that make businesses more profitable, sellable, and sustainable while improving owner wellbeing.Key Topics Discussed:1. Common Hiring MistakesFounders often hire to "fill a seat" rather than designing the role firstThis creates "Frankenstein roles" that are hard to replace and measureBest practice: Use the "elevate and delegate" model - categorize tasks by what you love/hate and are good/bad at, then delegate the bottom tier2. The Hustle TrapBusiness owners often wear burnout as a "badge of honor"Example: Owner doing parts runs while $60K in bids pile up (70-80% close rate)Key insight: Are you busy with the right things that generate revenue?Delegate tasks you hate/aren't good at to focus on high-value activities3. Tracking the Wrong MetricsMost founders track profit incorrectly by hiding expenses to avoid taxesThis hurts: credit applications, equipment financing, home purchases, and business valuationClean books = higher business value4. What Drives Business Valuation Factors that LOWER value:Over-reliance on one customer (lack of diversification)Weak human capital (high turnover, inexperienced staff)Missing systems/processes/intellectual propertyPoor financial predictabilitySingle vendor dependencyFactors that INCREASE value:Customer diversificationStrong, experienced teamDocumented systems and processesRecurring revenue (3-6 point multiple increase)Clean financial records5. Understanding Business MultiplesMost businesses sell for a multiple of EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization) or net profitTypical multiples: 1-3x (weak business) to 6-15x (strong business with recurring revenue, great systems)SaaS companies often valued on revenue multiples (though AI is currently driving these down)Who buys you affects the multiple (strategic buyer vs. PE firm)6. When Hustle Stops WorkingHard work creates bottlenecks when you're the decision-maker for everythingLeads to: burnout, key person dependency, slowed growthSolution: Decentralized command (like military model) - give teams the mission, let them executeBalance: You can't give equal TIME to business/family/health, but you can give equal INTENTION7. The 3D Diagnostic ModelDirection: Where is the company going? What are the goals?Design: What's the structure, systems, processes, financial model?Dynamic: What's the human element? Who might be holding you back?8. Leadership DevelopmentLeadership is a learned skill, not innate talentRequires repetition and practice ("reps")Best professionals in every field have coaches9. Work-Life Integration StrategiesBe strategic with focus and intentionWhen with family: phone down, fully presentGym time: have a plan, execute, leave energizedDaily practices: journaling, meditation, prayer, gratitudeLearn-teach-implement cycle: consume content, teach it to someone, apply it10. Definition of Wealth Deric's answer: Legacy - Making an impact that outlasts you, influencing people you'll never meet through the business owners and teams you coachCall to Action: Visit ExitMomentum.com to:Take a free business assessmentBook a 3D diagnostic call (no cost)Access free tools and insightsSchedule an in-person leadership labKey Takeaway: A sellable business is a good business, even if you never sell it. Building systems, diversifying revenue, and developing your team creates value regardless of your exit timeline.Links referenced in this episode:www.weeklywealthpodcast.com/endgameexitmomentum.com

Welcome to the WHOOP Research Series, where we breakdown into the extensive, scientific research conducted by the WHOOP Performance Science team. On this week's episode, WHOOP Global Head of Human Performance, Principal Scientist, Dr. Kristen Holmes sits down with WHOOP Senior Research Scientist Dr. Greg Grosicki to unpack the latest WHOOP Research Study on Heart Rate Variability Coefficient of Variation or HRV-CV. Using data from 21,000+ WHOOP members and 2 million nights of sleep, Dr. Holmes and Dr. Grosicki reveal why day-to-day stability in your HRV may matter more than the number itself. HRV-CV proves to outperform traditional metrics in detecting the real impact of alcohol, sleep consistency, and metabolic health, making it a great measure of healthspan. By looking deeper into the study, Dr. Holmes and Dr. Grosicki explains how HRV-CV can help you program your training smarter, improve your healthspan and build autonomic resilience. This episode unpacks how measuring HRV-CV isn't just about performance, but risk stratification and understanding your physiology over-time, not just day-to-day. (01:11) Intro To The Study: Why Is HRV-CV Important? (04:09) HRV-CV and Risk Stratification(08:28) Definition of HRV-CV(11:40) What HRV-CV Indicates in Athlete Recovery(14:26) Breaking Down The WHOOP Study(17:13) HRV-CV Trends in Shift Workers(21:21) Why Is HRV-CV an Important Biomarker?(25:18) HRV-CV Trends in Individuals on GLP-1 Medications(26:29) The Weather vs. The Climate: HRV vs. HRV-CV(33:41) The Results: Breaking Down the Data(36:37) How HRV-CV Responds to Certain Behaviors(39:38) Trends Between HRV-CV Between Age, Biological Sex, and Body Mass Index(49:54) How To Improve HRV-CV(56:39) New Research Roles and Opportunities at WHOOPReferences:American Journal of Physiology PublicationHRV-CV: The Key Metric for Lifestyle Consistency and StabilitySupport the showFollow WHOOP: Sign up for WHOOP Advanced Labs Trial WHOOP for Free www.whoop.com Instagram TikTok YouTube X Facebook LinkedIn Follow Will Ahmed: Instagram X LinkedIn Follow Kristen Holmes: Instagram LinkedIn Follow Emily Capodilupo: LinkedIn

What if the reason your macros “aren't working” has nothing to do with willpower and everything to do with hormones and timing? We pull back the curtain on why calories and macros alone can't fix metabolism and show how insulin, cortisol, leptin, and ghrelin actually drive fat loss, energy, sleep, and cravings. This is a practical, science-grounded guide to turning off food noise, restoring trust in hunger, and building true metabolic flexibility.We start by reframing food as information, not numbers. You'll learn how frequent eating keeps insulin high, why rigid targets ignore daily shifts in stress and sleep, and how front-loading meals with daylight supports digestion, glucose control, and nighttime repair. We detail the signs you're stuck as a sugar burner—hangry spells, energy crashes, 2 a.m. wakeups, and weight loss resistance—and outline simple moves to stabilize blood sugar: pair carbs with fiber and fat, stop snacking, walk more, and eat outside to harness natural light's metabolic benefits.Then we wade into the dairy paradox. Despite its low glycemic label, dairy is highly insulinogenic—especially low-fat forms—often stalling fat loss and inflaming hormone issues when used as a “high-protein” shortcut. We discuss why overdoing protein can also keep insulin elevated, and how to find your personal protein sweet spot while using whole foods, fiber, and healthy fats to raise natural GLP-1 and deepen satiety. Along the way, we highlight tools and habits that build resilience: CGMs or photo logging for insight, minerals for mitochondrial function, and restorative movement to calm cortisol and unlock fat-burning.To get notified as soon as groups open up and other updates sign up/subscribe here:https://stacy-baker.mykajabi.com/opt-in-9cffc5f4-f006-4adb-a0a7-6c33a0698b4bResources mentioned:Ketone and Blood Sugar Testing MasterclassKetone TestingRa Optics (Code DRSTACYND) blue light blockersHigher Dose (my FAV sauna blanket with low to no EMF) code DRSTACYCGM *2 months free with code DRSTACYStructured/Living Water *code DRSTACYSpring Aqua (my FAV water system) To work one-on-one with me, you can apply HERE!For more from me, follow me on IG @dr.stacy.ndEpisodes Mentioned: Cravings/HungerFat StorageThis information is just that; information only - not to be taken as medical advice.

The popularity of flight tracking apps has transcended the boundaries of the aviation community and truly become mainstream.I guess most of our readers and listeners are familiar with the market leader in this space, but what if I told you the competitive landscaspe in this space is far from static?Alex Lungu is the CEO of Wingbits, a ventur capital-backed Swedish startup that is aiming to disrupt the flight tracking industry by introducing a new model to build a flight tracking community which shares differently the value it creates.It is precisely the way incentives are built into its system that has allowed Wingbits to grow fast in a matter of just over a couple of years, from a few dozen tracking stations when it launched in 2023 to some 6,000 worldwide, as we recorded this conversation.In this episode of the podcast, Alex will explain what Wingbits is doing differently from its competitors and what factors have allowed this company to grow that fast.We also discussed, more generally, how flight tracking works and how the huge amounts of data generated by the flight tracking community hold immense value that can be put to good use if the right tools are available.And this is, precisely, what Wingbits has set to do, because Alex describes Wingbits as, essentially, a data business at its core.So, tune in for a deep dive into the flight tracking business with our guest today, Alex Lungu, CEO of Wingbits!

Unser Coaching ist nicht für jeden geeignet. Und unser Retainer auch nicht. Die entscheidende Frage ist nicht: Was ist besser? Sondern: Was passt besser zu deiner Situation? In Gesprächen sehen wir immer wieder drei Typen von Unternehmern. Nicht drei Branchen. Nicht drei Budgetgrößen. Sondern drei Denkweisen. ----------------------------------- Typ 1: Der Tiefeinsteiger ----------------------------------- • Will verstehen und Zusammenhänge begreifen • Möchte Google Ads, Analytics und Tracking selbst beherrschen • Hat Zeit, Motivation und ggf. ein Marketing-Team • Will operative Tiefe aufbauen Für diesen Typ ist Coaching ideal: • Strukturierte Module • Feste Gesprächstermine • Klare Lernpfade • Schritt-für-Schritt-Umsetzung Aber: Das braucht Zeit und echte Bereitschaft. ----------------------------------- Typ 2: Der Wachstumsfokussierte ----------------------------------- • Fokus liegt auf Vertrieb, Produkt, Führung oder Strategie • Möchte Ergebnisse, aber keine operative Tiefe • Hat wenig Zeit oder keine Lust, sich einzuarbeiten Für diesen Typ ist das Retainer-Modell sinnvoll: Wir übernehmen: • Monitoring • Optimierung • Skalierung • Tracking • Strategische Steuerung Du bekommst: • Klare Dashboards • Regelmäßige Abstimmung • Fokus auf Umsatz und relevante Kennzahlen • Keine Tool-Tiefe ----------------------------------- Typ 3: Das Hybrid-Modell ----------------------------------- • Will Kontrolle behalten • Möchte nicht alles selbst machen • Will verstehen, aber nicht täglich optimieren Hier kombinieren wir: • Operative Betreuung • Transparenz • Wissenstransfer • Zugriff auf Coaching-Inhalte Ergebnis: • Geschwindigkeit • Sicherheit • Kontrolle ohne operative Belastung Du musst es nicht selbst machen. Aber du könntest es. ----------------------------------- Am Ende geht es nicht um richtig oder falsch. Es geht um: • Zeit • Ressourcen • Ambition • Zielsetzung Und genau das klären wir im Strategiegespräch ehrlich und individuell. Wenn du dich in einem dieser Modelle wiederfindest, lass uns sprechen und prüfen, was für dein Unternehmen wirtschaftlich und strategisch wirklich Sinn ergibt.

What if your energy, clarity, cravings, creativity, libido, communication style, and even your relationship patterns weren't random? What if they were cyclical… predictable… intelligent? In this episode, I'm diving deep into the four phases of the menstrual cycle — not just from a hormonal perspective, but from a nervous system, performance, and leadership lens. Because when you understand your cycle, you stop fighting yourself.

Sign up for The Retreats: https://www.thechallengeretreat.com/retreats/p/the-challenge-retreat-season-3-april-29th-may-4th-5wwz5 IN THIS PODCAST WE TALK ABOUT: • The **Menstrual Phase** — your inner winter. Why rest is productive. Why reflection here saves you months of burnout. • The **Follicular Phase** — your inner spring. Brain clarity, idea generation, magnetic curiosity. • The **Ovulatory Phase** — your inner summer. Communication power, radiance, collaboration, visibility. • The **Luteal Phase** — your inner fall. Discernment, editing, boundary-setting, and truth telling. When you track your cycle, you start recognizing patterns instead of judging them. And that awareness alone is medicine. **This episode is sponsored by Maui Nui Venison.** If you've followed me for any amount of time, you know I care deeply about protein quality — not just for muscle, but for hormones, blood sugar stability, neurotransmitters, and cycle regulation. Maui Nui Venison sources wild-harvested, 100% grass-fed axis deer from Maui in a way that supports ecological balance and land regeneration. It's one of the most nutrient-dense red meats available — incredibly high in protein, iron, B12, and bioavailable minerals — and naturally lean. If you're working on cycle health, stable energy, or reducing PMS symptoms, adequate protein is non-negotiable. You can support your body and support regenerative land stewardship at the same time.

The athlete who wants to train smarter. The partner who wants clearer communication. And the human who is ready to understand that her rhythm is not a weakness — it's a design. Track it. Respect it. Use it. Your cycle is not random. It's a blueprint.

Are ovulation predictor kits enough to time intercourse? Can an app really tell you when you're fertile? And what if your body has been giving you the answers all along?  In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine is talking to fertility awareness pioneer Dr.  Are ovulation predictor kits enough to time intercourse? Can an app really tell you when you're fertile? And what if your body has been giving you the answers all along?  In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine is talking to fertility awareness pioneer Toni Weschler, author of Taking Charge of Your Fertility, and her niece, software engineer, Sabrina Nowicki. These three women explore how women can confidently track ovulation, understand cervical fluid, and take charge of their reproductive health with both education and technology. Toni Weschler shares the powerful origin story behind her decades of paper charting and why she once resisted fertility apps altogether. She believed that a thermometer, a pen, and knowledge of your own body were enough.  Sabrina explains how that philosophy evolved into Cyclisity, an educational cycle tracking app designed as the perfect companion to the book. Unlike predictive period apps that rely on algorithms and "average" 28-day cycles, Cyclisity follows the sympto-thermal method exactly as taught in Toni's work. It will finally make sense why basal body temperature confirms ovulation but doesn't predict it, how cervical fluid signals approaching fertility, why ovulation predictor kits can miss critical timing, and how improper app use can delay fertility diagnosis or lead to unintended pregnancy.  This conversation is a masterclass in reproductive education and body literacy while blending science, privacy, and modern technology. In this episode you'll hear: [0:39] Meet the guests: Author Toni Weschler and Sabrina Nowicki [2:36] Why track your cycle?

Rose has over a decade of experience as a natural family planning instructor and has helped countless women understand their hormonal patterns.   Key Topics: Why hormone tracking matters at every age If you have functioning ovaries, your hormones fluctuate and impact everything about you The limitations of period tracking apps Most apps use outdated calendar methods and only 4 out of 74 studied apps were actually accurate How the Mira fertility tracker works An at-home hormone monitoring system that tracks estrogen, LH, progesterone, and FSH through urine testing My personal experience At 46 and in perimenopause, I've been using Mira for two months and the data has been fascinating Understanding perimenopause Why this phase is so confusing and how tracking can give you back control Failed ovulation attempts What happens when your body tries to ovulate but doesn't succeed (common in perimenopause, PCOS, and postpartum) Timing progesterone supplementation Why taking it on a set day (like day 14) might not align with YOUR body's actual ovulation The importance of FSH Why this often-ignored hormone deserves more attention, especially 6+ years before menopause Who can benefit from tracking From teens to postmenopausal women, including those who've had hysterectomies or ablations Let's dive in!

From Corporate Boardrooms to Small Business Breakthroughs: Ingredients for Success with James OrsiniStay On Course Podcast | Host: Julie Riga | Guest: James OrsiniWhat does it really take to build a thriving small business and how do the lessons of the Fortune 500 world translate to the entrepreneurial journey? In this candid and inspiring conversation, Julie Riga sits down with seasoned executive James Orsini to unpack the mindset shifts, operational disciplines, and leadership principles that separate businesses that scale from those that stall. Whether you are a founder, a corporate executive ready to pivot, or a small business owner in the thick of the grind, this episode is packed with transformative insights to help you stay on course.From Corporate Boardrooms to Small Business Breakthroughs: Ingredients for Success with James OrsiniAbout James OrsiniJames Orsini is a seasoned executive leader with more than 35 years of experience as President, CEO, COO, and CFO across high-growth organizations. After an 11-year run at VaynerX alongside Gary Vaynerchuk, where he helped grow the company from $42M to $350M and 2,000 people across 15 offices, James now advises founders and small business leaders through Vyve, Factotum, and J & J Consulting Services, co-founded with his wife Joanne.Fun Fact: James is a proud Italian-American whose ultimate comfort food is his wife's Sunday pasta sauce, slow-cooked for hours every single week.Ingredients for SuccessFocus and Strategic Prioritization Entrepreneurs rarely run out of ideas; they run out of focus. James advocates for working backwards from your endgame and using tools like the Eisenhower Matrix to prioritize what truly moves the needle each quarter.Knowing When to Hire and Delegate Founders who hold on too tight risk choking their own growth. Tracking yellow hustle time versus green paid time on your calendar reveals exactly when it is time to bring in your first hire and step fully into your leadership role.Integrity Above All Doing the right thing with your employees, vendors, and partners, even when nobody is watching, creates a reputation that outlives any single business venture. James calls this the most enduring ingredient for success.Community and Accountability Leadership can be lonely. Investing in a mastermind, coaching program, or peer group compresses your learning curve and gives you the sounding board every leader needs. Iron sharpens iron.Culture as Your Competitive Advantage VaynerMedia maintained a 17% voluntary turnover rate in an industry averaging over 35%. Hire for kindness and empathy first, then teach the skills. Culture is your most sustainable edge.Memorable Quotes"Doing the right thing is always the right thing, even when people are not looking.""Some founders squeeze the baby so tight, they choke it. Know when to let go and move to the work only you can do.""Work backwards from the legacy you want to leave. That clarity drives every decision."Key TakeawaysTransition from operator to leader. Work on the business, not in it. This mindset shift is the turning point for every founder ready to scale.Build your network with gratitude and empathy. Relationships cultivated with care become your greatest long-term asset.Stay open to pivoting. The business you build two years from now will look nothing like what you imagined today, and that is a strength.Connect with James OrsiniLinkedIn: James OrsiniVyve: @Revive (social handles)Factotum: factotum.comJ & J Consulting Services (LinkedIn)Connect with Julie RigaStay On Course PodcastBefore I Lead Programjulieriga.com/leadSubscribe to Stay On Course wherever you listen to podcasts and share this episode with every founder and leader who is ready to build something that lasts.#StayOnCourse #LeadershipMindset #SmallBusinessSuccess #PurposeDrivenLeadership #BeforeILead

Most practices have plenty of numbers but still feel unclear about what to work on next. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Miranda Beason about why many dental practices don't have a data problem — they have a focus problem — and how to use quarterly priorities and the right metrics to create alignment, reduce chaos, and make steady progress toward annual goals. To learn how to set focus, choose what to measure, and lead your team with calmer, clearer direction, listen to Episode 1012 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysMore data does not create clarity unless the practice has clear priorities and a defined direction.Annual planning works best when it's translated into quarterly priorities that connect to day-to-day execution.When focus is missing, leadership often reacts to what feels urgent or “loud” instead of following a strategy.Practices build momentum when they choose two to four priorities for a 12-week quarter and measure progress consistently.Tracking fewer, quarter-specific metrics is more effective than maintaining a constant list of 30–40 KPIs.Weekly reporting improves a team's ability to make timely changes compared to waiting until the end of the month.Metrics gain traction when leaders clearly communicate the purpose, the team's role, and how the focus supports the patient experience.Snippets00:00 Metric Monday Kickoff: Data Doesn't Fix Everything01:57 Meet Miranda: Most Practices Have a Focus Problem02:40 Why Data Creates Alignment (and Removes Emotion)04:52 When You Get It Wrong: Chaos, Fires, and Moving Targets08:11 Real-World ‘Loud' Moments: Snow Days, Short Months & Panic09:44 When You Get It Right: Annual Goals → Quarterly Priorities13:06 Leading vs. Lagging Indicators: Staying Calm Under Pressure14:27 What You Can Do Today: Pick a Focus + Track the Right KPIs16:28 Report Weekly, Celebrate Wins, and Tie Metrics to Patient Experience17:47 Wrap-Up: Get Help, Stay Focused, and Build a Better PracticeGuest Bio/Guest ResourcesMiranda Beeson has over 25 years of clinical dental hygiene, front office, practice administration, and speaking experience. She is enthusiastic about communication and loves helping others find the power that words can bring to their patient interactions and practice dynamics. As a Lead Practice Coach, she is driven to create opportunities to find value in experiences and cultivate new approaches.Miranda graduated from Old Dominion University, and enjoys spending time with her husband, Chuck, and her children, Trent, Mallory, and Cassidy. Family time is the best time, and is often spent on a golf course, a volleyball court, or spending the day boating at the beach.More Helpful Links for a Better Practice & a Better Life:The Best Practices Show: https://www.actdental.com/podcast/Best Practices Association:

In this session, Tyler responds to a question about whether there's a reason for a seeming spike in cancelled pledges when launching projects today? It turns into a discussion about the importance of distinguishing “noise” during a live campaign from meaningful “signal.” Then we discuss ways to turn observations into comparable rates and introduces a simple DIY metric called “negative backer volatility.”

After a landmark Supreme Court case that directed EPA to determine whether carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health, the agency found in 2009 that indeed they do. Now, the Trump EPA is attempting to revoke that endangerment finding to unravel all subsequent regulations on tailpipes, smokestacks and more, setting up what looks to be a long legal fight.   The Trump administration has also declared scientists at places like the National Center for Atmospheric Research are promoting ‘climate hysteria' by overstating the risks to public health and safety, so it's moving to cut off funds for NCAR. We discuss the important climate and weather modeling NCAR does and how the loss of funding could impact this research.   And monarch butterflies can travel thousands of miles each year between Mexico and North America in an epic relay race of multiple generations. Thanks to new technology, our phones and other Bluetooth devices can now tell us what paths these brave little insects take on this journey. ---   Join us for the next Living on Earth Book Club event!

#785 Want a dead-simple way to stop spinning your wheels and know exactly what to do next in your business — starting today? In this episode, hosts Justin and Tara Williams share a simple but powerful roadmap to remove the overwhelm that stops most entrepreneurs: GPS — Goals, Plan, Systems. They argue that a successful business is really just a well-prioritized, consistently executed to-do list — and GPS is how you decide what actually belongs on that list. You'll learn how to set both big-picture goals (your lifestyle vision) and SMART goals (specific, measurable targets), then reverse-engineer your income goal into monthly, weekly, and daily action items (using a power-washing example to make it practical). Finally, they break down the systems that turn intention into execution — tracking/scorecards, calendaring, routines, accountability, and personal effectiveness — so you can stay focused, adapt fast, and keep moving forward without getting distracted by noise! What we discuss with Justin & Tara: + GPS roadmap overview + Goals, Plan, Systems explained + Big-picture vs SMART goals + Reverse engineering income goals + Breaking goals into targets + Daily to-do list execution + Power washing business example + Tracking with scorecards/KPIs + Calendaring and time blocking + Accountability and habit systems Thank you, Justin & Tara!

Key Takeaways: Don't Miss Common Deductions: Many business owners overlook deductions like mileage and home office expenses. Tracking these can lead to meaningful tax savings. Intent Matters for Expenses: For things like meals, travel, and entertainment, the reason behind the expense is important. Understanding intent helps ensure expenses are reported correctly. Bonus Depreciation Is Back: Recent tax changes allow businesses to fully write off certain purchases right away. This can be a big advantage when buying qualifying equipment or assets. Review Transactions Regularly: Looking through bank statements and transactions can reveal forgotten subscriptions or miscategorized expenses, which improves accuracy and savings. Get Expert Tax Help: Tax rules are complicated and always changing. A knowledgeable CPA can help businesses take full advantage of deductions and credits while staying compliant.    Chapters: Timestamp Summary   1:56 Commonly Overlooked Business Deductions for Entrepreneurs 4:10 Understanding Tax Deductions for Meals, Travel, and Entertainment 7:07 Documenting Business Expenses and Intent for Tax Deductions 8:42 Gift Cards as Taxable Income for Employees 9:22 Tax Strategies and Tips for Small Business Owners Powered by ReiffMartin CPA and Stone Hill Wealth Management   Social Media Handles    Follow Phillip Washington, Jr. on Instagram (@askphillip)   Subscribe to Wealth Building Made Simple newsletter https://www.wealthbuildingmadesimple.us/   Ready to turn your investing dreams into reality?

FF: Tracking, Trust, Tariffs, and Training The government's system is bound to fail...eventually. Until then, they will continue to get elected with promises they can't keep, create more dollars, devalue the dollars already in existence, fund the elites in Washington DC, and then socialize any losses. It doesn't seem to matter that our current president was a good businessman that understood basic business principles. Even he continues to increase the debt. The government will continue to tax as much as it can as long as they can convince the middle class that they are rich. Pam Bondi said we should all be excited because the DOW is over 50, but is that really a good thing? We talk about all this and more in this episode!

Welcome to Nerd Alert, a series of special episodes bridging the gap between marketing academia and practitioners. We're breaking down highly involved, complex research into plain language and takeaways any marketer can use. In this episode, Elena and Rob explore how privacy first advertising changes digital marketing. They reveal that when individual tracking disappears, platforms must rely on user groups instead. This shifts advertising toward probabilistic targeting, like how TV has always worked. Topics covered: [01:00] "Reach, Measurement, Optimization and Frequency Capping and Targeted Online Advertising Under K Anonymity"[01:45] Privacy forces less tracking, more thinking[02:50] How K Anonymity groups users by shared traits[04:35] Simulating the trade-off between privacy and performance[06:00] Privacy pushes reach-first thinking  To learn more, visit marketingarchitects.com/podcast or subscribe to our newsletter at marketingarchitects.com/newsletter. Resources: Gao, Y., & Qiao, M. (2025). Reach measurement, optimization and frequency capping in targeted online advertising under k-anonymity. arXiv preprint arXiv:2501.04882. Get more research-backed marketing strategies by subscribing to The Marketing Architects on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts. 

After a two-year break spent pursuing a postgraduate degree, I'm back behind the mic to pick up where I left off. This episode dives into New Year's resolutions, specifically the one I set for 2025 that I improbably followed for 365 straight days. Tracking every movie and TV show I consumed. We'll unpack what that experiment revealed, how the tracker evolved, and why my growing collection of spreadsheets may start sounding… concerning. I'll also share my public resolutions for 2026, along with one deliberately secret goal that future-me will have to answer for.Check out my other work: https://linktr.ee/rylanbanis

As we crest the wave of the Great Transformation, we have choices: we can crash into chaos and extinction - or we can step into our birthright as fully conscious nodes in the Web of Life, offering the astonishing creativity of humanity in service to life. We've said this on the podcast often, but it's not often that we speak with someone whose entire life is given to helping people step into our birthright, to opening the doors of what we might call Nature Connection, but is so much deeper than this -  so that anyone, of any age or circumstance can step forward into whatever it is that our birthright becomes in the twenty-first century. Our guest this week does just this. I've known of Jon Young for decades, heard of his 8 Shields practice and have friends who have trained in his Art of Mentoring, but it was only this last September that we met in person and I was struck by the deep inner stillness he brings to everything he does, the sense that his awareness stretches out across space and through time and he's listening to layers upon layers of meaning. Jon Young is a deep nature-people-self connection researcher, mentor, naturalist, wildlife tracker, author, consultant, and storyteller. Mentored by his grandmothers, Tom Brown, Jr., and a host of elders and experts, he has spent over 40 years leading the field of nature-based community building. His work explores the impact of nature on mentoring, human intelligence, spirituality, well-being, and development, influencing tens of thousands worldwide. He is the author and co-author of seminal works such as What the Robin Knows and Coyote's Guide to Connecting to Nature, and has appeared in documentaries including The Animal Communicator.

This week, Jason is joined by two of the most inspiring Detroit Lions fans you'll ever meet — Harry and Dan — in a special on-the-field episode recorded inside Ford Field after the Lions surprised Harry with an unforgettable day.Jason shares how a spontaneous Super Bowl concourse moment with Harry and Dan went viral for one simple reason: pure joy. But the story quickly became bigger — Harry's family reached out to reveal he's currently battling inoperable cancer, undergoing chemo to extend time, with no guarantee he'll make it to next season. What followed was a wave of support that reached the Detroit Lions, leading to a private tour, special messages, and a reminder of what can happen when the internet actually rallies around something good.Harry opens up about being overwhelmed by the attention, and why his approach to life has always been rooted in finding the good in every day, staying positive through the hard moments, and treating people with kindness and respect. Dan reflects on what makes Harry so loved — that he makes every interaction about the other person, and genuinely wants everyone around him to have a great day.Harry also talks about his career in the glass business and the rare kind of loyalty you almost never hear about anymore: after his diagnosis, his employer at Weather Guard Window Company gave him a written promise that he'd always have a job there, supporting him fully through treatment and time off when needed.Jason and David wrap with a powerful takeaway: the “power of humanity” is real — and Harry's light is proof that a single moment of kindness can ripple into thousands of people reconnecting with gratitude, perspective, and the people they love.Harry and Dan reveal all this and more in another episode you can't afford to miss!Trading Secrets Steals & Deals!Monarch:Monarch isn't your average personal finance app. Unlike most other personal finance apps, Monarch is built to make you proactive, not just reactive.

My paper, Seed Oils as a Hypothesized Contributor to Heart Disease: A Narrative Synthesis, explains that heart disease was rare before the 20th century and surged only after industrial seed oils became a dominant part of the food supply, pointing to a long-term dietary driver rather than sudden biological failure Linoleic acid (LA) from seed oils accumulates in your tissues and oxidizes easily, creating inflammatory damage inside arteries that builds silently for decades before symptoms appear The rise in seed oil consumption preceded the explosion in heart disease by 10 to 20 years, matching the slow timeline of plaque formation inside blood vessels Even if you avoid seed oils at home, LA remains embedded in packaged foods and restaurant meals, creating constant exposure that keeps arterial damage ongoing Tracking and reducing LA intake transforms heart disease from an inevitable outcome of aging into a long-term process you can influence
