Episode 102: Carrie Delgott is the President, COO, and CCO at Wescott Financial Advisory Group. With over 25 years in financial services—including two decades at Vanguard—Carrie brings deep expertise to the evolving RIA landscape. At Wescott, she has helped guide the firm through transformative initiatives like B Corp certification, major acquisitions, and the development of their Life-Minded Wealth framework, all while prioritizing employee engagement, client experience, and sustainable scale. This week, Kyle talks with Carrie about how values and vision can power meaningful scale. They dive into Wescott's journey as a B Corp, their involvement in the Net Positive Consortium, and how their Life-Minded Wealth philosophy puts people—not just portfolios—at the center of everything. Carrie shares lessons from integrating a billion-dollar acquisition, insights on the future of the industry, and why technology, culture, and intentionality are key to building a standout firm in a crowded market. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (01:48) - Carrie's money moment (04:03) - What B Corp Certification really means (07:21) - Why B Corp matters for RIAs (09:21) - The Net Positive Consortium and its five pillars (11:45) - What sets Wescott apart (13:09) - Westcott's Life-Minded Wealth philosophy (15:27) - Scaling an RIA with intention (20:32) - Lessons from a $1B acquisition (26:12) - Consolidating tech stacks for growth (29:30) - Carrie's outlook on the future of wealth management (32:57) - Carrie's Milemarker Minute Key Takeaways Growth is about absorption, not just acquisition. Successfully integrating people and culture is just as important as the deal itself. Without alignment, you lose the opportunity for true scale. Values attract top talent. Wescott's B Corp status and purpose-driven approach resonate deeply with next-gen advisors who want to do meaningful work. Scale is relative—and evolving. As the industry shifts, even mid-sized firms must rethink what growth looks like and how to build infrastructure that supports it. Quotes "We're not looking to have technology replace that human interaction, but we certainly are looking for it to make us more and more efficient." ~ Carrie Delgott "Acquisitions are not for the faint of heart. Just because you can afford a practice doesn't mean you can absorb a practice." ~ Carrie Delgott "If you're not going to integrate and you're not going to come to some best practices for how you're going to work on behalf of our clients going forward, then you just lost all of the scale and efficiency opportunities." ~ Carrie Delgott Links Carrie Delgott on LinkedIn Wescott Financial Advisory Group Vanguard Grant Rawdin Net Positive: How Courageous Companies Thrive by Giving More Than They Take Life-Minded Wealth Salesforce The Psychology of Money Connect with our hosts Milemarker.co Kyle on LinkedIn Jud on LinkedIn Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Produce game-changing content with Turncast Turncast helps your company grow by producing top-quality content and fostering transformative conversations.

Wait, is the main reason Westcott Vineyards exists in our lives is because the owners, Carolyn and Grant don't like to golf??? Okay that may be a wee bit overly simplistic BUT it is part of the story. Check out my interview with Carolyn Hurst, Westcott Vineyards President & Co-Founder where we go into the whole story of this Niagara based winery.

About Jennifer Westcott Hi I'm Jen. I am a therapist, artist, mother, wife, friend. I am a woman devoted and passionate to making therapists the best they can be, the most supported and human and kind to themselves. the reason I believe so strongly in this is through my own journey through healing and encountering both great and awful therapy! As the mental health field becomes more needed than ever, it's essential to support therapists as HUMANS. We already know how to get supervision, we already know how to get training, but there are not nearly enough places to talk about the human experience of being a therapist; how it affects us and how we affect it. I grew up in an alcoholic, dysfunctional family that looked really good on the outside with professional parents and kids who were 'bright' and went far...but inside the family were secrets of incest and alcoholism. When I was 36 years old I suddenly remembered being sexually abused by my mother. I nearly went completely mad and definitely went quite mad. This started my journey to healing and sobriety and I continue to trudge daily. The help I needed took me to many therapists' couches, psychologist appointments, psychiatry appointments, alternative healing circles, and 12-step meetings. Through this inside experience, I became PASSIONAtE about what helps people and what doesn't. I changed my complete approach to being a therapist after being a client and NEEDING HELP and getting it, and not getting it. My job as a clinical supervisor and private therapist became an experiment in 'what helps' clients heal from trauma and addiction and I tried a LOT OF THINGS and still do! What I've learned for sure is this: therapists who are authentic, real, and human help clients profoundly. How then do I support therapists to KNOW their own stories and wounds and USE this knowledge to have a healing impact on their clients? How do I support therapists in breaking out of the mold they became trapped in during their graduate program and remembering the sacredness and marvel of human healing? Creating Therapist Sanctuary is my attempt to do this and to hold up therapists in the sacred and meaningful work they do. Also, shout out to my old mentor Stuart Smally from 90's SNL who 'was not an actual therapist but a member of many 12-step groups'. Stuart; I love you. Permission for therapists to be more vulnerable, making them love what they do more deny the culture of putting our 'best self forward', let's put our most wounded self forward too! Therapists support and hold each other up better than any cheesy self-care method that doesn't even work and that we try doing alone in the bath. https://www.holistichealingcounselling.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@therapistsanctuary https://www.instagram.com/therapistsanctuary/ https://www.tiktok.com/@holistic_healing4 https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifer-westcott-ba897023b/
Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher chat with Dr. Wayne Westcott, an accomplished international authority in health, fitness and aging. He's the author of over 25 fitness books and the go-to expert and deep source of knowledge for maintaining strength at any age. They discuss how strength training not only combats muscle and bone loss but also helps prevent obesity, type 2 diabetes, and other chronic conditions. Tune in to hear how you can age gracefully and improve your overall health by focusing on strength, muscle retention, and longevity. Dr. Westcott shares how he used strength training in high school to improve his running, despite his coaches warning it would slow him down--now, he sees it as the foundation for both athletic and personal strength. According to Dr. Westcott, strength training for kids isn't just about physical health—it boosts cognitive performance and academic success. Dr. Westcott points out that strength training combats muscle and bone loss, which are inevitable with aging. He highlights its role in preventing chronic issues like obesity and type 2 diabetes. “Muscles are the engines of your body,” says Dr. Westcott, explaining how muscle loss slows metabolism and leads to weight gain. Dr. Westcott shares research showing that after dieting, most people regain weight as fat instead of muscle. Strength training interrupts this cycle, helping to maintain muscle and improve body composition. Amy reflects on how weight loss is often misunderstood--it's not about shedding pounds; it's about losing fat while preserving muscle. Dr. Westcott shares a study showing that older adults who combine strength training with extra protein significantly improve muscle retention. He recommends this simple strategy for anyone over 50. Dr. Fisher discusses the tragedy of muscle loss with aging, calling it a hidden threat to health and independence. Dr. Fisher and Dr. Westcott break down a study on the benefits of extra protein combined with strength training for postmenopausal women. You can lose weight faster by simply cutting your calories. Unfortunately, this strategy means you'll end up losing both fat and muscle. It makes a lot of sense to add strength training to whatever you do, from aerobic exercises to sensible dieting. The best way to get amazing results with strength training is doing exercises that keep the tension on the muscles in a safe and effective manner. According to Dr. Westcott, many people overdo strength training and that's why they burnout. He recommends focusing on safe, efficient workouts that are sustainable and enjoyable. Amy shares the key elements of her training schedule--20 minutes, twice a week is more than enough. Dr. Westcott talks about slower-speed exercises and how they yield better results in strength training. Amy and Dr. Fisher discuss the best place to start with strength training. Keep it simple, time efficient, doable, and interesting. Dr. Fisher and Dr. Westcott agree that the slower you do your reps the better. Your goal is to make every repetition count. You can do far fewer repetitions with far fewer risk of injuries and still get awesome results. Dr. Westcott explains why most people don't go the whole way in their strength training journey. People start strength training and they try to do too much, too frequently--too many sets, reps, and exercises—which quickly leads to burnout. Lifting weights is not about how much weight you lift. It's about how effectively you work your muscles and how long the muscles are under tension. Dr. Fisher believes strength training should be simple and accessible. He advises focusing on uncomplicated, supervised programs that fit seamlessly into your busy life. We have a choice in how we age. According to Amy, reversing aging starts with building and maintaining muscle. According to Dr. Westcott, cardio combined with dieting often leads to weight loss and muscle loss. Strength training, on the other hand, preserves muscle while delivering better long-term results. Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!

LA based photographer Ian Spanier has been on the show a few times, with the first being back in 2019 for a conversation about Classic Portraits & Classic Lighting, discussing a portrait of actor Jeff bridges. Next up was the 2022 show talking about his Favorite Light Setups, which was fitting since Ian is an Ambassador for Westcott as a "Top Pro". In all the years I have been doing this podcast, Ian is absolutely one of my favorite interviews. He's always happy to share any of his techniques or the details of his process. I have even watched his workshop a few times, when he was a guest presenter at Cal Baptist University. Simply put, he is a top level creator, and a fantastic educator. I was emailing back and forth with him recently, and he mentioned he had a new book coming out next year, titled Cigars: A Biography. Keep in mind, Ian already has had three successful books. His first full book of published work, "Playboy, a Guide to Cigars" arrived in cigar shops in November 2009. The book is a collection of his photographs made in six countries, and spanning two and a half years. His second book project was a different subject altogether, and “Local Heroes: America's Volunteer Fire Fighters,” came out to critical acclaim in the Fall of 2012. This year saw the arrival of book three, Arturo Fuente: From 1912 by Assouline books. This one is a two-book series that features all of Ian's images in their $1200 US Retail version as well as the limited edition smaller version packed with 20 exclusive Arturo Fuente cigars retailing for $2500 US. While we're chatting about the newest book, Ian said something that struck me as a great idea for a show. He talked about "how a long term personal project helps one grow as a photographer”. I think that as creatives we all have a different path for growing as an artist, and I feel like I have heard this one often. Personal projects lets us play, and explore not only our subject matter, but our entire approach to the art. I've done shows about personal projects before, and I have always been fascinated by the personal projects I see photographers take on, but this one was different. This personal project is the result of 17 years of Ian's work. As I mentioned above, Ian is an Ambassador for Westcott as a "Top Pro", and he's also a brand ambassador for companies like ThinkTank Photo, Spider Holster, Hoodman USA, Sekonic, Naroo Global Masks, and CamRanger. So, I asked if he'd wanted to come back and talk about how a project like this, spanning so many years, helped him grow as a photographer. Join photographer Ian Spanier and me as we take a look at how personal projects can help you grow as a photographer.

This Day in Legal History: William Rehnquist BornOn October 1, 1924, William Hubbs Rehnquist, the 16th Chief Justice of the United States, was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Appointed to the Supreme Court in 1972 by President Nixon, Rehnquist became a polarizing figure, known for his staunch conservatism and originalist approach to the Constitution. His judicial philosophy often focused on restricting federal authority and bolstering states' rights, positions that critics argued rolled back civil rights protections and hindered federal progress on social justice issues. In 1986, President Reagan elevated Rehnquist to Chief Justice, a decision that pushed the Court further right. At his swearing-in, Reagan hailed him as a defender of constitutional values, but opponents viewed his appointment as the solidification of an increasingly reactionary judiciary. The same ceremony saw Antonin Scalia, another conservative, sworn in, signaling a shift that would influence rulings on affirmative action, voting rights, and church-state separation.Rehnquist's tenure included controversial rulings, notably his role in Bush v. Gore (2000), which critics argue undermined democratic principles by halting the Florida recount and effectively deciding a presidential election. His leadership on the Court was also marked by decisions that curtailed congressional power under the Commerce Clause, weakening federal authority in areas like civil rights and environmental regulation. While his supporters celebrated him as a guardian of limited government, his legacy remains contentious, with lasting impacts on the Court's direction and the balance between federal and state power.A fun Rehnquist fact is that you'll see in any official pictures or portraits of him as Chief Justice, his sleeves have yellow arm bands. Rehnquist insisted on adding four gold stripes on each sleeve to distinguish himself from the associate justices. He was inspired by the costume of the Lord Chancellor in a production of the Gilbert and Sullivan opera Iolanthe. Rehnquist's addition of the stripes was an unusual departure from the traditional plain black robes worn by justices, and it became a symbol of his unique approach to the role.New York Mayor Eric Adams has brought on three high-profile litigators as he faces federal criminal charges. William Burck, a former George W. Bush White House lawyer and current Fox Corp. board member, is one of the lawyers advising Adams. Burck, known for representing figures like Stephen Bannon and Don McGahn, joins Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan partners John Bash III and Avi Perry on Adams' defense team. Alex Spiro, a partner at Quinn Emanuel with experience defending high-profile clients like Elon Musk, is leading the defense. The charges involve allegations that Adams accepted lavish travel perks and had improper ties to the Turkish government. Adams has denied wrongdoing and vowed to continue as mayor while fighting the charges. His legal team has requested the case's dismissal.Meanwhile, a legal defense fund for Adams has paid over $877,000 to law firm WilmerHale, and several staffers have left his administration amid ongoing investigations. Additionally, Theresa Hassler was recently appointed general counsel for the Mayor's Fund to Advance New York City, a nonprofit under scrutiny for its fundraising practices.Ex-Bannon Lawyer With Fox News Ties Joins NYC Mayor Defense TeamToday, on October 1, 2024, a Georgia judge will hear a challenge from Democrats against new election rules introduced by the Republican-led Georgia Election Board. These rules, approved in August, allow county officials to investigate discrepancies in vote counts and scrutinize election-related documents before certifying results. Democrats argue that these changes, which came just before the November 5 election, are designed to erode trust in the process and could delay certification. The rules were backed by three board members who are allies of Donald Trump, who continues to challenge his 2020 loss in Georgia. Trump has praised these board members for their efforts to increase election security, though critics, including Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, say the changes could undermine voter confidence and strain election workers.A separate lawsuit was also filed to block a new requirement for a hand count of ballots. Democrats contend that these rules create confusion and provide too much leeway for local officials to investigate alleged fraud, potentially delaying results. The trial in Fulton County Superior Court is part of a broader national focus on battleground states like Georgia, where both Republicans and Democrats are intensely focused ahead of the upcoming presidential election.Challenge by US Democrats to Georgia election rules goes to trial | ReutersAs artificial intelligence (AI) continues to transform industries, more U.S. law firms are appointing executives to lead AI initiatives. Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld and McDermott Will & Emery both announced new AI leadership hires, with Akin appointing Jeff Westcott as director of practice technology and AI innovation, and McDermott hiring Christopher Cyrus as director of AI innovation. These moves reflect the growing belief that AI will have a permanent role in the legal profession, particularly in areas like research, drafting legal documents, and reducing administrative tasks.Law firms are responding to client expectations and the surge in AI technologies, which have expanded dramatically in the past two years. Other firms, such as Covington & Burling, Latham & Watkins, and Reed Smith, have similarly created AI and data science roles since the rise of tools like ChatGPT. Westcott will focus on how Akin Gump can strategically invest in AI technology, assessing whether to develop tools in-house, purchase products, or partner with vendors.Additionally, legal AI startup Harvey's chief strategy officer, Gordon Moodie, transitioned to Debevoise & Plimpton as a partner specializing in mergers and acquisitions. These developments underscore the legal industry's growing focus on AI integration as firms aim to remain competitive and adapt to technological advances.More US law firms turn to executives for AI leadership roles | Reuters This is a public episode.

Question: I was very upset by the answer from you about the reason you prefer the KJV.... I need you to please send me several examples of what you consider "serious" errors [in modern translations]. I would also be very appreciative of some reading material that the lay person can understand...or names of some sources....Response: Thank you for your recent letter challenging me regarding my support of the KJV. This question is too complex to deal with in a brief letter, but let me try once again. You asked for sources.The best case against "KJV only" is presented by D. A. Carson in The King James Version Debate: A Plea for Realism. He points out, in "eight key Christological verses (Jn 1:1,18; Acts 20:28; Rom 9:5; 2 Thes 1:12, Tts 2:13; Heb 1:8; 2 Pet 1:1)... the KJV fails to underscore the deity of Christ in four." Most modern translations do as well or better. The NIV scores in seven of the eight. Even Thomas M. Strouse, though strongly criticizing Carson, admits these four KJV failures (Jn 1:18; 2 Thes 1:12; Tts 2:13; 2 Pet 1:1) and explains them as "a textual problem (Jn 1:18) and the other three are translational problems." Even its defenders must admit to some flaws in the KJV.Critics fault the KJV because it comes from a Greek New Testament which was put together by Erasmus in 1516, later improved by Theodore Beza and Robert Stephanus. The latter's fourth edition in 1551 is "substantially the Textus Receptus," according to Jasper James Ray, one of its most fervent defenders. Too late in time, say the critics, and too few manuscripts as its source. Yet this was basically the Greek text that had been accepted by the Greek church in the East for centuries (the Roman Catholic Church in the West used the Latin Vulgate), earlier manuscripts from which the Greek Bible came having been worn out and discarded. Modern translations (some are worse than others, the RSV in particular) come from a Greek text developed by Westcott and Hort (two scholarly heretics) based largely upon Vaticanus and Sinaiticus, which, though older, are clearly corrupted.

Andrew Tate's harmful ideology is infiltrating schools; boys, broadly speaking, are big fans, and their behaviour in the classroom is reflecting this. Dr Stephanie Westcott (researcher and lecturer in the School of Education, Culture, and Society at Monash University) shares her research on the experiences women are having in educational settings across Australia, looking at the influence of misogynistic ideology, how algorithms on TikTok and Youtube direct young boys to these ideas, and what parents, carers, and educators can do to combat the rise of these radicalised masculine myths.

Walter Veith is available at Amazing Discoveries Walter is a Seventh Day Advententast. I am not. But besides his heleocentric trinitarian angle, he does hit the high notes of history pretty well. ~~~ Walter is available at Amazing Discoveries This is from Walter's Total Onslaught Series. Premiered Oct 5, 2011 This is episode 13 of 35 "Why So Many Bible Versions. The Untold Dark History of Bible Translations. Battle of the Bibles" ~~~ History gives us an interesting insight into who the translators of the Bible were and what they believed. Could Satan be using modern Bible translations to set the stage for a final attack on the Word of God? In this episode, Walter Veith exposes the history and affiliations of those who have dared to reshape God's Word to suit their occult philosophy. He also shows why the issue is not so much about particular versions, but about which manuscript each version was based on. What is Gnosticism and how have gnostic teachings influenced modern Bible versions? How was the ancient city of Alexandria important to the occult world and why is this relevant to a discussion about Bible versions?

Africa & Rhodesia and financing of Z***ist settlements; this brings us to Z***ist Freemasons like Randolph & Winston Churchill; on the subject of S. Africa, we also reveal how this Master Mason, Cabalist, & Rosicrucian W.W. Westcott ultimately immigrated there in the early 20th century shortly before his death, spending considerable time seeding Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia nodes in the future apartheid state... From there, we turn our attention to obscure & disputed theories that William Wynn Westcott may have been Jack the Ripper; we examine the highly circumstantial but endlessly fun evidence that could support such a contention: the fact that he was a deputy coroner in Middlesex during the murders & may have even been involved in various inquests (if not directly, he likely knew the lead coroner who examined the Ripper victims, at the very least), the theory that Jack the Ripper suspect Montague Druitt may have visited Westcott at the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn HQ—supposedly then housed in his home—shortly before his supposed suicide, and the most sus of all... the fact that Westcott's wife & 2 of his children all committed suicide during his lifetime (a 3rd child died somewhat mysteriously in her 40s) & that Westcott inexplicably wrote this massive medical & anthropological study on suicide throughout human history prior to their deaths... Not to mention that he annotated a book on recreational substances & poisons LOL. We conclude with a quick dive into the Jewish intellectual salon society called Shabtai, bringing us back to Yale, Skull and Bones, and Go!. This enables us to make a first mention of Benny Shabtai—the likely Israeli intel agent, onetime embassy guard, billionaire, Jeff Epstein pal, diamond tycoon, Viber magnate, croupier in S. Africa (*cough* arms trader *cough*), & sexual harasser of step-daughters (who he threatened he would have Mossad disappear if she talked). We speculate about the implications of this Z***ist billionaire purchasing numerous homes for this Yale dinner club: namely, that his investment in the society is bc it is serving to promulgate Z***ism among the future elite. We talk Cory Booker helping to found Shabtai & the fact Vivek Ramaswamy was an early member—which causes the Rothschilds to crop up again via the fact Booker was a Rhodes Scholar, illustrating how their influence on settler colonial projects in both the Levant & Africa cont to reverberate thru the ages.

By reframing ADHD as a partnership and focusing on management techniques, individuals can harness their ADHD traits as superpowers, enabling them to better navigate life's complexities and achieve their goals. In the podcast, Ky Westcott discusses his experience with severe ADHD and how he reframed his perspective on the disorder from a battle to a partnership. By doing so, he honed his management techniques to better control and utilize his ADHD traits. Ky encourages others to adapt this mindset, allowing them to see the potential strengths and advantages that come with having ADHD. Understanding Introversion Introversion is often misunderstood as shyness or anti-social behavior. However, introverts are simply people who recharge their batteries alone and prefer processing things internally. This particular trait can lead to strengths such as listening skills and critical thinking. Embracing introversion can allow individuals to leverage their unique qualities and have a more profound understanding of themselves and others around them. Ky Westcott identifies himself as an introvert and shares his love for deep conversations with a few close friends. He also dispels the myth that introverts are shy and anti-social, emphasizing the unique strengths they possess. Understanding and embracing introversion can lead to a more authentic and fulfilling life experience. Mental Health and Self-Love It's essential to recognize the importance of mental health and self-love, especially when going through difficult times in life. Many people neglect their mental well-being, which can lead to feelings of loneliness, isolation, and invalidation. Self-love is about accepting one's flaws and appreciating the good things in life, allowing for a healthier mindset and improved mental health. Seeking professional help and resources is a crucial aspect of taking care of one's mental health and embarking on the journey towards self-discovery. During the podcast, Ky Westcott opens up about his journey towards self-discovery, highlighting his 35 years of not acknowledging mental health issues. He now emphasizes the importance of seeking help and using humor in his content to make conversations around mental health more accessible. By doing so, he hopes to inspire others to reach out and get the help they need, even if it's only a single person reaching out to him for guidance.
