Construction sales feel like a grind because the root problem isn't sales — it's the business infrastructure underneath. In this episode, we unpack the 10 structural roadblocks that make selling construction work under $100M so difficult. These issues include unclear vision, missing strategy, weak financial visibility, poor org structure, broken incentive systems, no management rhythm, and outdated hiring and development practices. Fix these, and sales becomes dramatically easier. Ignore them, and every bid feels like a battle. If you're tired of grinding, guessing, and hoping for better results, this episode gives you the roadmap. Top 10 Reasons Contractors Struggle to Scale:       1.    Lack of a clear vision for the future       2.    Lack of a clear, well-documented strategy       3.    No critical metrics defining business performance       4.    Poorly defined organizational structure and role clarity       5.    Limited financial visibility and business acumen       6.    Misaligned or poorly designed incentive systems       7.    Undefined cultural norms, values, and beliefs       8.    No management system to drive communication and accountability       9.    Ineffective hiring processes       10.   Lack of employee development capability

In this Episode: join hosts Diana and Amy in this soul-stirring conversation - a beautiful and honest conversation where they pull back the curtain on what it truly feels like to move through life and business without a defined Heart Center or G Center. Without consistent willpower or a fixed sense of direction, they've spent years learning…sometimes the hard way…how to trust their authority, honor their energy, and stop chasing proof of worthiness that was never missing in the first place! This episode is equal parts revelation and relief. Diana and Amy get beautifully honest about: The sneaky ways an undefined Heart whispers “prove yourself” and how they finally stopped hustling for worth The disorientation of an undefined G that has no fixed “who am I?” to cling to What they wish someone had told them on day one of their deconditioning journey If you've ever felt the quiet ache of “Am I doing this right?” or wondered how to lead powerfully when your inner compass feels like open sky, this episode will feel like coming home. Pour yourself something warm, settle in, and let these two radiant Manifestors remind you: your openness isn't a flaw. It's the sacred portal through which your truest impact flows.

In this episode of the Building Better Developers Podcast, we sit down with Dusty Gulleson, CEO of eResources, to explore why story-driven discovery is the foundation of every successful software project. Dusty shares how understanding a customer's journey, motivations, and real-world frustrations leads to better outcomes than any technical requirement alone. Instead of focusing on platforms and features first, he explains why great projects begin with people and the stories behind their needs. About Dusty Gulleson Dusty Gulleson is a founder who never set out to build a large company—he simply followed the work, served people well, and let loyalty drive the growth. After leaving a COO role that didn't fit, he waited tables, picked up freelance web projects, and gradually built what is now eResources, a 100+ person organization spanning strategy, branding, IT services, cybersecurity, SaaS automation, and offshore teams. Born in Indonesia and now leading four thriving divisions, Dusty has grown the company without hype or outside funding, relying instead on relationships, trust, and consistent delivery. With five acquisitions under his belt and recurring revenue across industries like housing, higher education, and public health, his leadership philosophy centers on people, clarity, and service. Whether in a boardroom or a bourbon tasting room, Dusty approaches every conversation with the same question: "Where do you want to go, and how can we help?" Why Story-Driven Discovery Matters More Than Requirements Most clients initially express their needs in bullet points, task lists, or feature requests. But as Dusty explains, those surface-level items rarely reflect the full picture. Story-driven discovery goes deeper by uncovering the context behind the request: the business pressures, the users involved, and the real outcome the client is trying to achieve. "We're customer service people first — we just happen to do technology," Dusty shared. This mindset ensures teams build solutions that support real workflows rather than assumptions. How Story-Driven Discovery Reveals Real Problems As Dusty shifted from a bullet-point mindset to a more narrative-focused approach, he began asking open-ended questions such as: What does a successful day look like for you? What is frustrating about your current system? Which tasks slow you down the most? Who depends on the work you do? Stories expose problems that requirements often hide. Rob Broadhead offered a relatable example: someone saying "the printer isn't working" may actually mean "I need this document before my meeting." Story-driven discovery uncovers the urgency, not just the symptom. Using Story-Driven Discovery Before Delivery Begins Dusty breaks every project into two essential steps: Discovery — listening, asking questions, and gathering the story Delivery — building the solution aligned to that story Skipping step one is where most projects fail. Without story-driven discovery, teams risk scope creep, mismatched expectations, unrealistic budgets, and frustration on both sides. "If a company won't invest in discovery, they're not serious about solving the problem." A proper discovery process creates alignment long before development begins. Avoiding AI RFP Pitfalls with Story-Driven Discovery Dusty highlighted a growing issue: AI-generated RFPs that look polished but lack practical context. These documents often include: Conflicting requirements Unrealistic expectations Missing business outcomes Undefined user roles No connection to real workflows They list features — but no story. Story-driven discovery corrects this by grounding requirements in real organizational challenges and goals. Prioritizing Needs with Story-Driven Discovery During discovery, Dusty uses two powerful prioritization methods: MoSCoW Method Must-Have Should-Have Could-Have Won't-Have (for now) The 80-15-5 Rule 80% → essential for launch 15% → valuable future enhancements 5% → avoid due to high cost or low ROI These frameworks help keep projects realistic and focused on value. How Story-Driven Discovery Builds Trust At its core, story-driven discovery builds stronger relationships. Clients feel heard. Developers gain clarity. Executives stay aligned. Teams avoid miscommunication. When everyone understands the story, the success criteria become obvious — and so do the right solutions. Conclusion This episode makes one message clear: technology alone doesn't create great software outcomes. Success begins with story-driven discovery — a human-centered approach that uncovers real needs and aligns teams before development ever starts. Dusty's perspective reminds us that the best projects aren't built on specs. They're built on stories.

If you've ever felt guilty for not having a "clear niche" like everyone says you should, or felt suffocated every time you try to force yourself into one specific direction, or worried that your pivots make you look unreliable - this episode is for you. About 43% of people have what's called an undefined G Center in Human Design, and the business world's obsession with "picking one direction" is probably making you feel like something's wrong with you when you're actually designed for fluid exploration.In this episode, I share:

If you've ever held back from sharing your business insights because "what if I change my mind later," or felt like you need to research everything to death before making a decision, or questioned your intelligence when you can't decide quickly - this episode is for you. About 53% of people have what's called an undefined Ajna Center in Human Design, and it's probably why you're putting pressure on yourself to be mentally certain about everything instead of trusting that it's actually okay to not be certain, to say "I don't know" and to give yourself permission to change your mind later.In this episode, I share:

If you've ever found yourself avoiding pricing conversations because you don't want to deal with potential pushback, or changing your business strategy based on one negative comment, or feeling completely drained after client calls - this episode is for you. About 50% of people have what's called an undefined Solar Plexus Center in Human Design, and it's probably why you're absorbing everyone else's emotional energy instead of making clear business decisions grounded in your own truth. In this Human Design business episode, I'm breaking down exactly how the undefined Solar Plexus Center shows up in business and practical steps to stop avoiding emotional conversations.In this episode, I share:

If you've ever found yourself adding bonus sessions to justify your rates, automatically pricing yourself lower than your competitors, or saying yes to draining projects because you're worried about disappointing someone - this episode is for you. About 63% of people have what's called an undefined Ego Center in Human Design, and it's probably the biggest reason why talented entrepreneurs struggle to charge what they're worth and set healthy boundaries.

In this episode of Medsider Radio, we sat down withTracy MacNeal, President and CEO of Materna Medical. Materna is developing two devices addressing different aspects of pelvic health: Ellora, aimed at preventing childbirth injuries during delivery, and Milli, designed to treat vaginismus, a pelvic floor condition that makes intercourse painful or impossible.Tracy is a healthcare executive and engineer with over 25 years of experience in medical devices, digital health, and women's health, including six successful transactions. In addition to heading Materna, Tracy serves on the AdvaMed Board and leads its Women's Health Equity Initiative, and was previously President of Diagnostics and Digital Health at Ximedica.In this interview, Tracy shares how clinical data enabled Materna to bridge B2B and B2C channels, and why clarity of focus is essential when commercialization paths diverge. Tracy also outlines what it takes to build in undefined markets, from aligning KOLs to publishing foundational definitions, and offers a candid perspective on what investors really want: clear financial returns, backed by a founder they trust to deliver when things go sideways.Before we dive into the discussion, I wanted to mention a few things:First, if you're into learning from medical device and health technology founders and CEOs, and want to know when new interviews are live, head over to Medsider.com and sign up for our free newsletter.Second, if you want to peek behind the curtain of the world's most successful startups, you should consider a Medsider premium membership.

What if you no longer needed to prove your value by how much you get done in a day? In this episode, we are giving our undefined root center babes a pep talk! This is one of the most overlooked, yet powerful aspects of the human design chart. With 40% of the population carrying this trait, understanding how this pressure center operates is key to managing stress, anxiety, burnout, and the unhealthy rush of modern life. We discuss the pressures and challenges people with an undefined root center may face, and provide practical advice on managing anxiety, stress, and the urge to constantly be in motion. We talk about the importance of grounding routines, using your Authority to make decisions, and the distinction between natural flow and forced actions when it comes to the undefined root.    Key Takeaways: Shayna's experience with her undefined root center and how it has shaped her daily life—often amplifying the world's pressure to be constantly doing  How the root center governs our stress response and adrenal system, and how society exploits this undefined pressure to constantly keep up with hustle culture How you may be amplifying the pressure from the world around you, and how this often leads to burnout, internal urgency, over-commitment, and chronic stress— even when there's no real need to rush How some of us might be “in a hurry to die”—constantly rushing to get to the next thing and relieve that pressure, instead of being in the present moment.

What does it actually mean when your conscious sun or earth shows up in an open center in your Human Design chart—and is that a bad thing? In this episode, Nicole tackles a common question that stirs up a lot of confusion and fear for people exploring their design. The answer might surprise you—and even help you unlock your greatest potential. Nicole breaks this concept down in a way that's both relatable and empowering, using her own chart to show how open centers with defined gates aren't flaws—they're opportunities. She introduces a powerful new way to look at these placements: like a wild horse that needs to be tamed, they hold incredible potential once you learn how to work with them. You'll hear how these chart dynamics play out in real life, why they can feel so challenging, and what it takes to move from struggle to strength. This isn't just theory—it's a practical path toward embodying your design more fully. If you're looking for a clearer, more grounded way to interpret your Human Design and use it to fuel your growth, this episode will give you the clarity and inspiration to start doing exactly that.

It's been a minute since I added to my series on defined vs. undefined centers here, but don't worry, I didn't forget about it.Today, we're focusing on the ajna center. If you're looking on your Human Design chart, it's the second center from the top of the bodygraph — the triangle that points downward. As always, if the center is colored in on the chart, it's defined, and if not, it's undefined.The ajna is the center for opinions and insights, and how we conceptualize information. I have a completely open ajna so even trying to conceptualize it makes me want to implode sometimes!Soooo, because I love learning through lived experience, I brought in my friend Lisa Anderson Shaffer to to talk about her defined ajna and how her experience differs from mine. Lisa is a mentor and human design guide, 6/3 Manifesting Generator, and Aquarius sun / Taurus moon / Capricorn rising.In this episode, we're getting into:how Lisa feels like her defined ajna gives her the power to put information together at super-speed and connect the dots between conceptsand how she tries to redirect her mental energy like a "hamster on a wheel" instead of getting caught up in thought loops and anxietythe 23-43 “genius to freak” channel and how it benefits the ajna to wait for that invitation before speaking your mind — even as an MG — so opinions and solutions will land betterthe difference between a defined and undefined ajna when reading energy, channelling, and claircognizanceMy open ajna is so ready to hear your experiences and opinions on how you relate to this episode, so listen in and let me know how you feel!

"Undefined, unbounded, and immense power" - that's what anti-federalists warned we'd eventually get under the Necessary and Proper Clause. Today, it's easily one of the most twisted and abused parts of the Constitution. In this episode, learn about three key views of the clause: the modern view, which began with Alexander Hamilton and John Marshall; the strictly limited view from James Madison and Thomas Jefferson; and a middle ground from one of the clause's authors, Edmund Randolph. The post Necessary and Proper: The Big Lie That Unleashed Big Government first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.

If you've ever struggled with having a clear sense of who you are, struggled with direction, or found yourself changing based on who you're around—this episode is for you. The Undefined G-Center is often misunderstood. Instead of being a flaw, it's actually a gift: the ability to flow, evolve, and take in life's experiences from different angles. But when conditioning creeps in, it can make you feel ungrounded, lost, or like you need to force an identity. In this episode, we'll explore: What it really means to have an Undefined or Open G-Center The beauty (and challenges) of adaptable identities How conditioning around “having a clear direction” impacts those with an Undefined G-Center Ways to embrace your natural ability to evolve without losing yourself If you've ever felt pressure to "find yourself," “figure yourself out” or “stick to one path,” this episode will help you reclaim the power of your adaptable, flexible nature.

If you've ever felt like you had to prove your worth, work harder to deserve success, or constantly seek validation, your Undefined Heart Center might be at play. The Undefined Heart Center is one of the most conditioned areas in Human Design, leaving many of us stuck in overworking, over-promising, and over-proving. But what if your worthiness wasn't something you had to prove—but something you simply owned? In this episode, we're breaking down: How the Undefined Heart Center impacts self-worth and validation The sneaky ways it shows up in career, relationships, and daily life How to stop the cycle of proving yourself and start trusting your natural value If you've ever thought “I just need to work harder” or “I'll feel worthy when…”, this episode is for you.

In this episode you'll learn how to speak up and express yourself if you have an undefined Throat and Solar Plexus energy center. These people do not have a consistent ability to express themself with their voice, so how do they express themselves and communicate at all? You'll learn in this episode! If you do have these centers defined, you'll also learn how to love and support the people in your life who don't. Human Design is a beautiful way to learn to love each other's differences and enjoy when people act differently than you would.

In this episode, I get real about navigating grief, anger, and the rollercoaster of emotions that come with adversity. After experiencing the heartbreak of losing a close friend and the emotional weight of external chaos, I stepped away from social media and the constant noise of the news to protect my energy. Through this process, my Human Design became my guide. By understanding my Undefined and Open centers—Solar Plexus, Head, Ajna, etc—I found tools to process my emotions, manage overwhelm, and reconnect with clarity. Feeling stuck or weighed down by your own emotions? This episode dives into how Human Design can help you build resilience and navigate tough times with greater self-awareness and grace.

The social media platform X recently launched a new artificial intelligence feature for premium users: Grok-2, an AI model that can also generate images. And the outputs are a bit less censored than you might see with other similar tools. Experimenters online have been able to generate images of Donald Trump and Kamala Harris brandishing guns, Mickey Mouse smoking a cigarette and some far more disturbing tableaus. Grok claims to avoid images that are pornographic, excessively violent or intended to deceive and added it’s cautious about representing content that might infringe on existing copyright. But the guardrails certainly seem to be on the looser side, in keeping with owner Elon Musk’s hands-off approach to content moderation. Marketplace’s Meghan McCarty Carino spoke with Adi Robertson, senior tech and policy editor at the Verge, about Grok-2 and what she found while she tested the AI’s limits.

INSIDER TRADING UNDEFINED: 1/4:  Uneven Justice: The Plot to Sink Galleon, by Raj Rajaratnam https://www.amazon.com/Uneven-Justice-Plot-Sink-Galleon/dp/1637582811/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= Raj Rajaratnam, the respected founder of the iconic hedge fund Galleon Group, which managed $7 billion and employed 180 people in its heyday, chose to go to trial rather than concede to a false narrative concocted by ambitious prosecutors looking for a scapegoat for the 2008 financial crisis. Naively, perhaps, Rajaratnam had expected to get a fair hearing in court. As an immigrant who had achieved tremendous success in his adopted country, he trusted the system. He had not anticipated prosecutorial overreach—inspired by political ambition—FBI fabrications, judicial compliance, and lies told under oath by cooperating witnesses. In the end, Rajaratnam was convicted and sentenced to eleven years in prison. He served seven and a half. Meanwhile, not a single senior bank executive responsible for the financial crisis was even charged. Uneven Justice is the story of his bewildering and confounding prosecution by forces who, quite frankly, were looking for bigger game. When Rajaratnam refused to support the narrative that would make that happen, he and the Galleon Group became collateral damage. A cautionary tale with implications for us all, Uneven Justice is both a riveting page-turner and an eye-opening lesson in the vagaries of justice when an unscrupulous prosecutor is calling the shots 1929 WALL STREET
