In this week's episode, I'm chatting with Alejandra Rojas, entrepreneur, Forbes contributor, and founder of Brown Way to Money, a financial mentoring platform that helps women overcome financial trauma and improve their relationship with money. Alejandra's story is such a powerful reminder that financial freedom isn't just about numbers, it's about emotional healing, self-awareness, and redefining success on your own terms. Originally from Colombia, Alejandra left home at 19 on a scholarship and went on to live and study in Spain, the U.S., and New Zealand. She shares how her journey from financial burnout in Washington D.C. to finding balance in New Zealand completely changed how she views money, success, and happiness. We talk about what it means to truly know yourself with money, and how understanding your emotional patterns can help you build wealth that feels aligned and sustainable. Alejandra also breaks down her B.R.O.W.N. Framework, a tool she uses to help women heal from financial trauma and create lasting change. In This Episode I Discuss: How Alejandra's global journey and scholarships shaped her view of money and opportunity The moment she realized her financial burnout was connected to deeper emotional patterns What she learned about consumer culture and self-worth while living in the U.S. How life in New Zealand helped her slow down, reconnect, and build a new definition of success Watch the video to this episode on YouTube below or click here.

THE WORLD IS CHANGING!!! Erasing fear with evidence, science and facts! This conversation delves into the significant impact of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on women's health, particularly in the context of menopause. Dr. Rubin, Casperson and Makary discuss the recent FDA decision to remove black box warnings associated with HRT, which have perpetuated fear and misinformation for decades. They emphasize the importance of educating both clinicians and patients about the benefits and risks of HRT, highlighting the long-term health advantages it offers, such as reducing the risk of heart disease and osteoporosis. The discussion also addresses the need for informed consent and the importance of empowering women to make educated decisions about their health. Takeaways 50 to 70 million women have been denied health benefits from HRT. The FDA's removal of black box warnings is monumental. Misconceptions about HRT have persisted for decades. Education is crucial for both clinicians and patients. Hormone therapy can significantly reduce heart disease risk. Women often face barriers in accessing HRT. Informed consent is essential for women's health decisions. Long-term benefits of HRT include reduced risk of osteoporosis. The healthcare system needs to better address women's health issues.

You've built a business that changes lives, but what if the one thing holding back your next level isn't strategy, it's your stamina? The vision God gave you can't scale through a body that's running on low power. Years before Power on Plants began, Jarrod and I were building traditional medical and nursing careers, raising four children, and chasing big God-sized dreams. But our health wasn't keeping pace. We were exhausted, foggy, and frustrated — watching energy slip away while opportunities piled up. We didn't need more drive. We needed the simple, sustainable system to fuel the entire vision God had placed in our hearts.Then everything changed. Through prayer, research, and plenty of kitchen flops, God showed us how to turn whole food plant-based living into the fuel that enjoyably powers clarity, creativity, and endurance… on repeat! (No deprivation, no keeping up with numbers, and no small portions necessary.)From that breakthrough came our 5-Step Accelerator Framework — the proven blueprint for Christian entrepreneurs and Kingdom leaders who want to restore energy, sharpen focus, and multiply productivity for maximum Kingdom impact. THE RESULTS?75+ pounds lost naturallyand sustainably — no dieting, no deprivation.Chronic conditions reversed the way God designed — through real, delicious food.Energy, focus, and confidence restored — for life, family, and leadership.Clients now use this same Framework to turn their bodies into their #1 asset for business growth and Kingdom expansion.If your body's been slowing down your mission, it's time to fix that.

In this episode of the You Are Not Broken podcast, Dr. Kelly Casperson speaks with Dr. Rachel Boyle, a sex therapist specializing in perimenopause and menopause. They explore the complexities of women's sexual health, the impact of hormonal changes, and the importance of communication in relationships. Dr. Boyle shares her journey into understanding perimenopause, the effectiveness of EMDR therapy for trauma, and the cultural pressures women face regarding their bodies and sexuality. The conversation emphasizes the need for qualified therapists and the significance of creating safe spaces for women to explore their desires and experiences. Takeaways Low libido can be a message rather than a problem. Healing trauma doesn't require reliving it, but releasing it. Perimenopause can last for many years, affecting women's health. EMDR therapy helps process traumatic memories effectively. Women often bear the emotional labor in relationships, leading to stress. Communication about sex is crucial for healthy relationships. Desire for sex can be influenced by hormonal changes and emotional safety. Cultural attitudes towards women's bodies impact their sexual health. Consensual non-monogamy requires clear communication and boundaries.

In this refreshingly honest talk, David breaks down the real traits that make a man genuinely magnetic — and how any man can cultivate them. He reveals why emotional intelligence, purpose, and nervous system regulation are far more attractive than wealth or abs — and gives tangible ways to build them.

From emotional numbness to genuine connection, this powerful episode with David Chambers dives into one of the quiet epidemics among modern men — disconnection from their feelings. When men can't access or express emotion, it ripples through everything: relationships, purpose, friendships, and even self-worth. In this deeply practical and grounded conversation, David reveals the real cost of emotional disconnection — and how learning to feel again is the key to living with meaning, aliveness, and authentic masculine strength. He breaks down simple, tangible practices to help men reconnect to their emotions, regulate their nervous systems, and build genuine presence in their lives. Too often, men try to "think" their way through life — but as David shows, real growth starts when we drop out of our heads and back into our bodies.

How Flamingo generated 1,000 waitlist signups before launching a product using a free community tool | Michael Assraf

Michael Assraf is building Flamingo, an open-source and AI-powered operating system for managed service providers. After exiting Vicarious in May 2024, he spent seven months on market research before writing a single line of code—conducting 15+ MSP interviews, mapping their complete tool stack economics, and testing distribution channels with a free community product. The research revealed a structural margin crisis: MSPs operate on 10-15% margins with 30% of revenue flowing to vendor payouts and 25-30% to technician labor. Meanwhile, private equity consolidation drives customer pricing down while legacy vendors raise prices. Michael closed a $2.2 million pre-seed in February 2025, built OpenMSP as a lead-gen vehicle that generated 1,000+ waitlist signups, and launched Open Frame with 70% of capital still in the bank. In this launch-day conversation, he breaks down why the $380 billion MSP market remains massively underinvested, how Facebook ads outperformed LinkedIn 5:1, and why he's giving away the core product while charging for hosted deployment. Topics Discussed: The seven-month research phase: 15+ MSP interviews, mapping 19 tool categories with pricing data, evaluating open source project maturity through commit frequency and VC backing MSP margin compression mechanics: 30% vendor payouts, 25-30% labor costs, 10-15% net margins being crushed by PE-driven consolidation and vendor price increases Building OpenMSP as distribution validation: four months before alpha, generated 1,000 waitlist signups and 200 Slack members while testing paid acquisition channels Why Facebook delivered 40%+ of leads at $6-8 CPL while outbound completely failed with IT-busy MSPs aged 25-50 in central US markets Launching with 70% of $2.2M pre-seed still in bank by solving for distribution and product-market fit before scaling headcount Open Frame's architecture: unified control plane over open source tools (RMM, SSO, zero trust) with dual AI agents—one for end users, one for technicians Offering both self-hosted (free, GitHub) and commercial SaaS (per-seat pricing starting January 2026) to build trust in an underserved market The MSP category opportunity: $380B market, 12% annual growth, 30-40K US MSPs, minimal VC-backed innovation against 20-year-old incumbents GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Build lead-gen infrastructure before you have a product to sell: Four months before launching Open Frame, Michael shipped OpenMSP—a free tool that analyzes MSP tech stacks and suggests open source replacements. It wasn't a waitlist landing page; it delivered standalone value while capturing intent data. This generated 1,000 qualified signups and 200 Slack community members while simultaneously validating paid acquisition channels. By launch, he knew Facebook cost $6-8 per lead while outbound failed completely. Most founders build product first, then scramble for distribution. Michael inverted the sequence. Fire fast on sales hires in early stage, or don't hire them at all: Michael fired three VP Sales at Vicarious before learning the lesson: "The moment to bring salespeople is not when you are able to sell your product, is when someone else is able to sell your product." The critical test isn't whether the founder can close deals—founders sell vision and relationship. The test is whether a marketing person, SDR, or non-sales hire can generate revenue. Only then do salespeople accelerate an already-working motion. Hiring VP Sales at $50K ARR because the board wants "someone to own revenue" burns 12+ months and $200K+ learning this. Spend 6-12 months researching before building in unfamiliar markets: Michael conducted 15+ MSP interviews, mapped all 19 tool categories they use with pricing, evaluated open source alternatives by analyzing GitHub commit frequency and pull requests, identified which projects had VC backing for long-term viability, and tested multiple marketing channels before alpha deployment. This allowed him to launch with product-market fit indicators already validated and 70% of his $2.2M still in the bank. The alternative—build fast, iterate with customers—works when you deeply understand the market. When you don't, research is cheaper than pivots. Target categories where lack of innovation creates adoption momentum: MSPs represent 30-40K companies in the US alone, part of a $380B global market growing 12% annually. Yet VCs historically avoided the space assuming low ACV and high churn. The dominant platforms—ConnectWise, Datto, Asea—have existed 20+ years with minimal AI adoption or architectural modernization. Michael specifically chose MSPs because "in cyber security you would never get traction that we're getting right now unless you're spending millions of dollars." In crowded categories, distribution cost kills you. In starved categories, any credible innovation gets attention. Architect your product so adoption mechanically improves customer unit economics: Open Frame attacks both sides of MSP margin compression simultaneously. The open source tool suite eliminates the 30% of revenue paid to commercial vendors. The dual AI agent system (end-user self-service + technician orchestration) reduces the 25-30% spent on labor. Michael didn't find a problem and then figure out monetization—he reverse-engineered a solution where product adoption directly expands customer margins. When your product makes customers structurally more profitable, adoption isn't a marketing problem. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co   //   Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

I've been sitting with this question lately. Does this increase your capacity to love? In today's episode, I'm joined by global leadership expert and author Marcel Schwantes, whose new book Humane Leadership: Lead with Radical Love, Be a Kickass Boss is changing the way we think about leadership. We talk about what it really means to lead with love through patience, humility, trust, and kindness, and how that transforms not just your work, but your life. Marcel shares his powerful story of going from burnout to breakthrough and breaks down his five pillars of “loving leadership.” We dive into why kindness isn't about being nice, how trust grows when it's given first, and how compassion creates high-performing teams. If you've ever wondered how to lead with heart without losing your edge, this conversation will fill your cup. Let's talk about what it means to bring radical love into the way we lead, live, and show up for others.

Last month I felt unstoppable. I was strong, focused, energized. And then, slowly, my motivation just faded. Add an ear infection into the mix, and I realized I needed to hit pause. That pause turned out to be one of the most productive things I could do. In this episode, I walk you through my 10 Minute Reset Lab, a research-backed ritual I use when my motivation tanks. We'll cover four simple steps of moving your body, removing distractions, putting pen to paper, and connecting to your source that can help recalibrate your energy and mindset fast. I also share practical tips from my own life, including how I recovered from a dip in motivation and why intentional micro-breaks can transform how you approach your day. This isn't self-care fluff. It's about regaining agency, creating structure, and moving from reactive to intentional. Whether you're a busy professional, a parent, or just someone who wants to feel more energized and focused, this episode will give you actionable strategies to reset, recharge, and reclaim your motivation.

The future of mental health care lies in integrating self-care, personalization, and technology to meet people where they are. In this episode, Clayton Nicholas, Chief Commercial Officer at CredibleMind, discusses the urgent need to reimagine the intersection of mental and physical healthcare by focusing on prevention, accessibility, and personalization. He explains that the traditional, reactive, and clinician-limited model has left millions underserved and introduces the stepped care approach, where digital self-care tools form a foundational “step zero.” Clayton describes how digital front doors can simplify access, reduce stigma, and guide people toward the right level of support, helping to shorten waitlists and ease pressure on the system. He concludes by highlighting how data-driven insights and AI can personalize care, strengthen empathy and engagement, and enable earlier, more effective interventions at scale. Tune in and learn how digital innovation is reshaping behavioral health by bridging access gaps and empowering self-care from the ground up!

Episode 448: Why Perfect Conditions Made Trees Collapse (and What That Means for Your Money & Financial Journey)

In this solo episode, I share a powerful reminder that the very challenges and obstacles we face on the journey to financial freedom are often what make us stronger. I start by revisiting a story I mentioned in my book, Your Journey to Financial Freedom, about the Biosphere 2 experiment where trees grew quickly in perfect, windless conditions but fell before maturing because they never developed the strength to sustain themselves. That missing “wind” reminded me of how important challenges are in our own growth. Just like those trees, when we try to avoid friction or rush toward quick wins, we might grow fast but not strong. The “wind” in our lives, the job losses, tight budgets, market downturns, and unexpected setbacks builds the stress and resilience we need to stand tall and stay grounded when life pushes back. In This Episode, I Talk About: How stress and challenges build strength and how the moments that slow you down, like money, stress or tough life changes, are what prepare you for long-term success. Why sustainable growth matters more than speed. Quick wins feel good, but real freedom comes from patience, consistency, and a strong foundation. How to reframe “going slow”. Going slow isn't failure, it's building roots deep enough to handle life's wind.
