This episode is powered by The Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz , your first step in uncovering how to leverage your divine wiring to lead with alignment as you stop sabotaging your next level of success. Discover your divine wiring and uncover what's REALLY keeping YOU from millions. The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. This week's MTM Minute is a rewind of the full length episode Imposter Syndrome Is Messing With Your Millions, Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon tackles the issue of imposter syndrome and its impact on entrepreneurs and seven-figure CEOs. She explores how imposter syndrome can cause self-doubt, lead to overworking, and prevent entrepreneurs from reaching their full potential. Dr. Darnyelle shares practical strategies such as visualization, confidence journaling, and reframing failure as feedback to combat these feelings and move forward with confidence. Learn how to overcome self-doubt, increase confidence, and scale your business by recognizing and celebrating your wins. This episode also emphasizes the importance of nervous system regulation, maintaining clarity, and building a successful leadership mindset to close the gap between your current business state and seven-figure success.   This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I am worthy of all the success I've achieved and all that is coming my way. I release any feelings of imposter syndrome and embrace my true potential. I trust that my confidence will close more deals than my skills ever will, and I move forward boldly, embracing my ability to lead and achieve seven-figure success. I am enough, and my results are proof of my capability. I am a seven-figure CEO, and I own my worth with pride."   Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Start a Confidence Journal: Each day, write down three wins, no matter how big or small. Document your accomplishments, client successes, and any milestones you hit. Regularly reviewing this journal will help rewire your brain and combat imposter syndrome by focusing on your strengths and achievements. Practice Visualization Daily: Dedicate five minutes each morning to visualize yourself confidently leading meetings, signing high-paying clients, and achieving your business goals. Engage all your senses and feel the emotions tied to your success. Visualization can significantly increase your confidence and alignment with your goals. Reframe Failure as Feedback: When you experience setbacks, practice reframing them as learning opportunities rather than evidence of your inadequacy. Write down what you learned from each experience and how it will help you grow. This will reduce the emotional impact of failure and keep imposter syndrome at bay.   Affirm with me: "I am worthy of all the success I've achieved and all that is coming my way. I release any feelings of imposter syndrome and embrace my true potential. I trust that my confidence will close more deals than my skills ever will, and I move forward boldly, embracing my ability to lead and achieve seven-figure success. I am enough, and my results are proof of my capability. I am a seven-figure CEO, and I own my worth with pride." And this week's journal prompts are: "Today, I will combat imposter syndrome by acknowledging one of my successes and celebrating it because..." "When I visualize my success, I feel... and I will use that feeling to guide me through today's challenges." "The failure I experienced recently taught me... and I am now able to approach future challenges with a clearer mindset because..." And Your Prayer Of The Week: Heavenly Father, We thank You for the gifts, skills, and opportunities You have placed in our lives. We pray for the strength to release any feelings of imposter syndrome and to fully embrace the success You've already blessed us with. Help us to recognize our worth, trust in our abilities, and confidently step into the leadership roles You've called us to. We ask for Your guidance in overcoming self-doubt, granting us clarity and confidence to lead our businesses toward greater success. May we continue to serve with purpose, and may our journey inspire others to do the same. In Your name, I pray. Amen. Your money patterns are spiritual, and they're rooted in how you lead.

In spring 2025 I was invited to join On Brand with Jimmy Fallon as 1 of 10 creatives selected to pitch national campaigns to major brands on national TV. Since the episodes aired, my DMs have been full of the same questions: how did I get on the show, what was it really like, and what do I think of Jimmy Fallon?This week on Making It In The Toy Industry, I'm taking you behind the scenes of my wild ride as a contestant on On Brand with Jimmy Fallon.

You've built something impressive. From the outside, it all looks good. But if you're honest with yourself, you've been playing small. Making things look perfect so no one sees the truth underneath. Smiling through the exhaustion. Saying "I'm just" when someone recognizes your power. Shrinking yourself so others feel comfortable. Today's guest knows this pattern intimately because she lived it for years. Sarah Albritton has spent over 30 years as the trusted catalyst for high-impact leaders who've achieved massive success but know something's still missing. She works with CEOs, founders, and senior executives who look unstoppable from the outside yet privately feel their compass spinning. Her clients include billion-dollar business leaders and visionary founders who've realized the old playbook isn't working anymore. But before she was coaching the world's most accomplished leaders, Sarah was the woman who made everything look perfect while quietly crumbling inside. The high achiever with imposter syndrome who spent 20 years in a marriage where she wasn't fully present. The capable woman who carried chronic back pain because her body was screaming what she wouldn't say out loud. The leader who walked into rooms full of elite coaches and heard herself say "I'm just a coach here, just like everybody else" in that high-pitched little voice, watching doors close behind people's eyes. Until the day she couldn't keep playing small anymore. In this raw, vulnerable conversation, Sarah reveals what it actually costs to make things look perfect when you're not being real. The physical pain her body carried from years of inauthenticity. The devastating betrayal when her entire friend group turned on her during her divorce, not just walking away but actively trying to destroy her. The moment at a coaching seminar when she caught herself shrinking and made the conscious choice to show up bigger. And how learning to treat her body as her hero instead of her villain changed everything. In this conversation, Sarah shares: The real cost of playing small: how making things look perfect on the outside creates chronic pain, exhaustion, and a complete erosion of self-trust Why imposter syndrome isn't humility, it's hiding your power, and the exact moment she chose to stop shrinking What happens to your body when you spend years being inauthentic (and why her chronic back pain disappeared the moment she got real) The difference between corporate leaders who've been conditioned not to trust themselves and entrepreneurs who struggle to trust anyone else Why "who, question mark, me, exclamation point" is the energy shift that changes everything The devastating cost of betrayal and how therapy helped her see that other people's reactions to her getting real had nothing to do with her What her 15-year-old son said that made her realize the gift of getting real: "When you decided to get real, you made it possible for the rest of us to get real" How she went from chasing dean positions and status to redefining success as "not needing a definition of success" Why humans are terrible judges of their own impact and what becomes available when you stop needing proof The work she's building now: Leading with Backbone, helping both business leaders and coaches show up courageously instead of hiding behind neutrality This episode is for you if you've ever: Caught yourself saying "I'm just" when someone recognized your power or capability Made everything look perfect on the outside while quietly crumbling on the inside Felt chronic pain, exhaustion, or physical symptoms you can't explain (and wondered if your body is trying to tell you something) Played small so others would feel comfortable, then resented yourself for shrinking Built a life that looks impressive but doesn't feel real, doesn't feel like you Lost trust in yourself after betrayal and wondered if you'll ever feel safe again Known you're capable of so much more but kept yourself small to stay safe Wondered what would happen if you actually showed up as big as you really are Sarah Albritton is a transformational coach and leadership catalyst who has spent over 30 years working with the world's most accomplished leaders. She's known for her rare ability to deliver what she calls "catalytic jolts of clarity," helping CEOs, founders, and senior executives torch limiting patterns and reclaim aligned leadership. Working from deep 1:1 coaching to transformative team sessions to soul-awakening retreats at her North Carolina farm, Sarah balances self-compassion with radical candor and a refusal to sugarcoat. Her new program, Leading with Backbone, helps both business leaders and coaches show up courageously with truth. Find her at sarahcalbritton.com and on LinkedIn and Instagram @sarahcalbritton. Ready to stop playing small? If Sarah's story hit close to home, it's because you're living some version of it right now. You've built something that looks good on the outside. People think you have it together. But you know the truth. You're playing smaller than you're capable of. Making things look perfect so no one sees how exhausted you really are. Shrinking yourself so others feel comfortable while your body carries the weight of everything you're not saying. Here's what that costs you: your energy, your presence, your health, your relationships, and your ability to actually feel the success you've built. You collapse into bed exhausted but can't sleep because your mind won't stop racing. You snap at the people you love most, then feel guilty for not being present. You know you should take better care of yourself but you always run out of time and energy. You've built a life people admire but inside it doesn't feel congruent. The Congruency Audit is where we look at the gap between the success you've built on the outside and what you're actually feeling on the inside. We'll identify the exact patterns keeping you stuck in playing small, the wounds driving your need to make things look perfect, and what it's going to take for you to finally show up as big as you actually are. This isn't about optimizing the version of yourself you built to survive. It's about creating congruence so the life you've built doesn't just look good, it finally feels right.

“Entrepreneurship is scary as well as compelling in a weird way.” – Shay Prosser That's the quiet admission of someone who's lived the tension of building something that matters—between fear & purpose, risk & reward—and kept moving anyway. Shay started in chaos: a newborn on the floor, the economy unraveling, & a business idea that couldn't wait for permission. It wasn't perfect timing; it was purpose knocking early. When her one-to-one financial coaching couldn't reach enough people, she rebuilt the model—bringing financial education into workplaces & later onto military bases with the USO. That pivot became her pattern: find the gap, build the bridge. So when business owners began coming to her not just for answers but for direction, she created spaces to think differently—to set bold goals, make smart moves, & scale with clarity, courage, & connection. Today, she helps business owners do what she's always done—move forward, even when the path isn't clear. Not with ten-year dreams, but ninety-day wins. Progress, not perfection. Because growth doesn't come from having it all together—it comes from showing up anyway. To learn more, connect with her through North 12 Partners or Birthing of Giants. Shay reminds us what Amelia Earhart said best: “The most effective way to do it is to do it.”

What if the greatest leadership blind spot isn't about people at all, but about the space between them?In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli speaks with Jim Ferrell, renowned leadership thinker and author of You and We: The Relational Rethinking of Work, Life, and Leadership. Known for co-authoring the international bestseller Leadership and Self-Deception, Ferrell's latest work shifts the lens from managing individuals to managing the relationships that determine whether strategies succeed or fail.Ferrell explains why execution often falters not inside functions, but at the seams — the handoffs, dependencies, and connections that link people, teams, and departments. He challenges leaders to rethink the org chart: while boxes and reporting lines are visible, the real value is created or lost in the white space between them. CEOs and boards who fail to see and lead that space risk blind spots, stalled strategies, and underperformance.In the conversation, Ferrell outlines a framework of “levels of connectivity” that helps leaders diagnose whether relationships are dividing, subtracting, siloed, multiplying, or compounding results. He shares why leaders at the top often get the worst data, how systems and incentives frequently reinforce silos, and what it takes to truly lead at the relational level.Whether you lead a global enterprise, a nonprofit, or a government agency, Ferrell's insights invite you to rethink what leadership demands today: not simply inspiring individuals, but intentionally managing the relational field that drives execution, culture, and long-term performance.Actionable TakeawaysHear why execution fails most often at the seams, not inside the silos—and what this means for how leaders should focus their attention.Learn how to spot the blind spot on your org chart and why the white space between boxes matters more than the boxes themselves.Discover Jim Ferrell's “levels of connectivity” and how each level determines whether relationships subtract value, add value, or compound it.Find out why CEOs at the top often receive the worst data—and what kind of leadership it takes to cultivate candor and real feedback.Explore how system design and incentives can quietly sabotage collaboration even among well-intentioned people.Understand how mapping connections across teams can reveal hidden risks and opportunities for acceleration.Learn practical moves senior leaders can make to strengthen critical relationships across teams, functions, and business units.Hear how leaders can build an organization where success is shared and compounded, rather than siloed and slowed.Connect with Jim FerrellJim Ferrell LinkedIn You and We Withiii Leadership Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

In this episode of The CEO Podcast, Scott De Long, Ph.D., and Vince Moiso return after a long hiatus to discuss the challenges leaders face in making tough calls during uncertain times in this limited-run series, Leadership at the Crossroads. They open with reflections on the current economic and political landscape, including inflation, tariffs, AI disruption, and fluctuating interest rates of which test a leader's ability to remain calm, focused, and strategic. Scott emphasizes the importance of staying calm and making data-driven decisions rather than fear-based reactions. He encourages leaders to balance instinct with analysis, ensuring decisions are informed by both experience and data. Vince adds that focus is more critical than ever, urging leaders to eliminate distractions from constant news cycles to phone notifications so they can maintain clarity and productivity. Together, they explore how external noise and media bias can influence leadership decisions and why critical thinking and perspective are essential traits for modern executives. The conversation shifts to organizational growth, where Scott and Vince share insights on balancing entrepreneurial drive with operational discipline. They discuss a case study of a fast-growing company learning to integrate structure without stifling innovation. The duo agrees that while bold moves are sometimes necessary, leaders must know when to slow down, assess internal processes, and ensure alignment with long-term vision. They conclude by encouraging CEOs to revisit their organizational purpose, assess market realities, and recalibrate their three-year vision to align with today's changing business climate. Key Takeaways Leaders must stay calm, grounded, and data-driven when navigating uncertainty. Eliminating distractions and focusing on what truly matters is essential for effective leadership. Sometimes slowing down to analyze and align can lead to faster, more sustainable growth. Key Insights Economic uncertainty, including inflation and tariffs, demands clear-headed leadership. Data-driven decision-making reduces fear-based reactions and helps maintain stability. Balancing entrepreneurial instinct with structure is key to sustainable scaling. Avoiding constant exposure to news and social media can improve focus and mental clarity. Leaders should question media biases and seek diverse perspectives before forming opinions. Slowing down at key decision points can prevent costly mistakes and promote strategic clarity. Collaborative decision-making fosters buy-in and stronger organizational alignment. Understanding team personalities and communication styles enhances leadership effectiveness. Organizations should routinely reassess vision, processes, and resource allocation.

In this episode of HR Famous, Tim Sackett sits down with Tom McCarty, CEO of OrgChart, to talk about something every HR and talent leader is wrestling with right now: how to design the org of the future in an AI-powered world—without losing your mind in spreadsheets. Tim and Tom kick things off by unpacking what OrgChart really is (spoiler: it's way more than boxes and lines). Tom explains how modern org charting gives HR three critical advantages: visibility into what your org actually looks like today, insights that layer in performance, skills, pay and potential, and vision to model what your organization should look like in 1–5 years. Whether you're at 100 employees growing 20% a year or a global enterprise, Tom shares why staying in Excel is quietly killing your workforce planning. They dive into the uncomfortable truth that technology and data remain two of HR's weakest muscles, and why that's not entirely HR's fault. Tom argues that HR tech vendors haven't always made it easy or intuitive—then walks through what “better” looks like when org design, data and decision-making actually work together. You'll hear them tackle big questions that every HR leader is feeling in Q4 2025: How will AI agents fit into your org chart and headcount strategy? Why you can't plan the future state of your organization if you don't clearly understand the current state. Why CEOs are freaking out about succession and what real org visibility can do about it. How the best leaders in an AI world won't be the ones with all the answers—but the ones who ask the best questions. Tom also shares a simple, no-software-required starting point: how HR can begin making better org and talent decisions just by aligning on the five or six things that should always be considered in pay planning, growth planning, or restructuring conversations. If you're an HR leader, TA leader, or C-suite exec planning for 2026 and beyond—and you're tired of pretending your “org design” is a tab in Excel—this conversation will give you a clearer vision of what's possible and what to do next.

In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey Stanton breaks down what it really looks like to "get rich slowly" as a fractional CMO—and why that's a far better goal than chasing quick wins or sprinting toward burnout.    Drawing from real stories inside the Accelerator, Casey shares how members like Lisa, Ben, Sean, and Jennifer are building long-term, stable income by focusing on the fundamentals: selling high-value strategy (not cheap implementation), staying committed to a niche, and showing up with consistency and leadership—especially on their worst days.    You'll hear how to move from overworked agency life to a calm, predictable business where one or two great clients can replace an entire salary. Casey unpacks what makes a "morally neutral or positive" business, how to price your work confidently, and why the right long-term contracts can eliminate money stress altogether.    Along the way, he reminds us that freedom doesn't come from adrenaline or chasing every shiny offer—it comes from depth, focus, and relationships that compound over time.    Whether you're just starting your fractional journey or ready to slow down and scale up, this episode is your roadmap to building wealth the sustainable way—one good client, one good contract, and one good year at a time. Key Topics Covered: -Why "getting rich slowly" is the real path to lasting success  -The danger of chasing quick wins and constant reinvention  -How long-term contracts create calm, predictable income  -The shift from implementer to true marketing leader  -Building a business that works even on your worst days  -Why simplicity and focus outperform endless hustle  -The power of working with "morally positive" clients  -How real freedom comes from discipline and depth  -What it means to grow steadily instead of sprinting to burnout  -The mindset that turns short-term chaos into long-term wealth

Unexpressed gratitude is perceived as ingratitude. In this episode, Andy Stanley and co-host Suzy Gray unpack one of the most overlooked leadership habits—expressing gratitude. Most leaders feel thankful for their teams but fail to say it out loud. And when we don’t express gratitude, people don’t assume we’re busy—they assume we’re ungrateful. But appreciation builds loyalty, strengthens culture, and fuels motivation far more effectively than paychecks or perks ever could.

This episode is powered by The Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz , your first step in uncovering how to leverage your divine wiring to lead with alignment as you stop sabotaging your next level of success. Discover your divine wiring and uncover what's REALLY keeping YOU from millions. "You cannot build wealth from woundedness—and you cannot heal what you have hidden."– Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon Money doesn't respond to your prayers—it responds to your patterns. That one truth could be the key to unlocking your next million. In this raw and revealing kickoff to the For the Love of Money series, Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon gets to the root of what's really keeping high-level, high-earning CEOs financially stuck: unhealed financial trauma. From undercharging and spiritualizing lack, to fearing abundance and self-sabotaging every big win, she unpacks how unresolved money wounds show up in your business, your leadership, and your bottom line. This isn't about strategy; it's about spiritual identity, nervous system regulation, and shifting from trauma-informed scarcity to legacy-level overflow. If you're still struggling to hold the money you're making, this episode will change everything. Here's the truth: Most CEOs aren't broke, but they're operating from broke energy. And it shows. No matter how good your offer is, how polished your brand, or how packed your calendar, if your nervous system still equates abundance with danger, you will keep sabotaging your overflow. The income isn't the problem. It's your identity. You'll walk with a deep understanding of how unhealed financial trauma shows up in your leadership and business decisions, real-life examples of trauma-driven pricing, over-giving, and financial sabotage, a spiritual reframe that reclaims your worthiness, safety, and ability to receive and a powerful invitation into the Seven Figure Shift and the Sanctuary program that finally offers a safe space to heal your relationship with money  Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook, a pen and your favorite beverage and listen in to discover: ✔ How to identify the signs of financial trauma in your pricing, hiring, and sales behavior ✔ How to reframe money shame into spiritual stewardship and sacred responsibility ✔ How to stop spiritualizing lack and finally start receiving from a healed identity ✔And so much more This episode is a call to finally stop intellectualizing wealth and start healing for it. If you've been “doing the work” and still feel heavy in your finances, still stressed after every launch, still watching cash flow like a hawk… it's not your income, it's your unhealed identity. Dr. Darnyelle is raising the conversation to a higher level, where trauma meets stewardship, and where legacy can finally begin. This is your invitation to drop the spreadsheet and get honest about the patterns. If you've ever left a sales call feeling resentful, discounted your offer for validation, or spiritualized your own avoidance, this is the moment to pause, listen in, and get free. The way you see money is really about the way you see yourself. This episode will help you shift both.

It responds to your patterns."— Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon "You can't build wealth from woundedness."— Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon "Your nervous system will shut down abundance before it can get comfortable if success still equals stress."— Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon "You spiritualize lack and call it waiting on God, but really you're avoiding receiving."— Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon "Your financial shift ceiling isn't your income—it's your unhealed root."— Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon Questions to Ask Yourself While Listening: Where am I spiritualizing lack and calling it humility or stewardship? What patterns do I default to after a big financial win—or a loss? How do I price my offers: from alignment, or fear? When did I first learn that money was dangerous, shameful, or scarce? Am I building my business from a place of abundance or from unresolved pain? Want more of Darnyelle?

As we record this in mid-October, the world has without a doubt gone absolutely bonkers over AI. People are making all kinds of extreme predictions: Some see a heaven on Earth in a future with AI, and others confidently predict unmitigated disaster. But how many of these people are talking from actual in-the-trenches experience? Who can take the long view based on what they've actually done and seen… and an informed view of what's possible for the future? I personally know only one person who fills that bill, and he's our returning champion. He's Sam Woods, our very special guest today. Sam has been in the game for nine years, while most of us haven't been there half as long. In fact, when it comes to AI and copywriting, I don't know of anyone who's been in it longer than Sam has. He got started with machine learning in 2016 and generative AI in 2019. He was a pioneer in prompt engineering for AI copywriting, and marketing. Sam has advised Fortune 1,000 companies and teams across the world, as well as advised and consulted with CEOs and other C-Suite executives. He describes himself as “a strategic AI architect who advises C-Suite leaders on turning artificial intelligence into their most powerful competitive advantage.” But more important to us, he's a seasoned and successful expert using AI for writing copy that gets results. Who better than that to help us see the bigger picture? Sam's website: https://samueljwoods.com/ Other resources: https://bionicbusiness.com https://www.copywriting.ai/ Download.

AI infrastructure spending is rapidly increasing, with major technology companies such as Google, Microsoft, and Amazon projected to invest over $300 billion by the end of 2025. This surge is primarily driven by the demand for data centers and GPU capacity to support artificial intelligence initiatives. While the Federal Reserve indicates that current investments differ from the dot-com boom due to stronger earnings among leading firms, analysts caution that excessive debt-fueled expansion could pose risks if AI does not deliver the anticipated returns. The insurance sector is particularly optimistic, with 67% of CEOs expecting returns on AI investments within three years, a significant increase from 20% the previous year.Alphabet reported a quarterly revenue of $102.35 billion, exceeding expectations, with a notable 34% growth in cloud revenue. Amazon's cloud division, AWS, also showed resilience, generating $33 billion in net sales despite a global outage. Microsoft reported $49 billion in cloud revenue, with Azure experiencing a 40% year-over-year growth. However, Microsoft faced challenges with capacity shortages, which could limit revenue potential. Additionally, OpenAI reported a net loss of $11.5 billion, impacting Microsoft's financials due to its significant investment in the AI company.In the small business sector, sales transactions increased by 8% in the third quarter of 2025, although owner confidence has declined due to inflation and rising operational costs. Many small business owners are motivated to sell before conditions worsen, with a notable number of buyers identified as corporate refugees seeking stability in essential service sectors. This trend presents an opportunity for IT providers to offer tailored technology solutions to these new business owners, who may lack expertise in setting up necessary systems.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT service leaders, the current environment presents both challenges and opportunities. As AI drives infrastructure upgrades, providers must help clients navigate the complexities of AI investments, ensuring they understand when AI initiatives are financially viable versus when they may be overhyped. Additionally, the increase in small business sales indicates a demand for reliable technology setups, providing MSPs with a chance to offer essential services that facilitate smoother transitions for new business owners. Three things to know today00:00 AI Spending Soars Past $300 Billion as Cloud Titans Post Record Earnings and Mounting Risks06:15 AI Gold Rush: Big Tech's Billion-Dollar Bet Fuels Cloud Expansion, CEO Optimism, and Debt Warnings10:26 Small Business Sales Surge as Inflation Saps Confidence and Corporate Refugees Step In This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://scalepad.com/dave/https://getflexpoint.com/msp-radio/

How to Market to Cybersecurity's Most Elusive Buyers: AI, Emotion, and the Human Touch - Interview with Gianna Whitver and Maria Velasquez | Cyber Marketing Con 2025 Coverage | On Location with Sean Martin and Marco CiappelliCyberMarketingCon 2025 In Person & Virtual https://www.cybermarketingconference.comDec 7-10, 2025 in Austin, Texas Why Cybersecurity Marketing Demands a Different PlaybookThe cybersecurity industry presents a paradox for marketers. While practitioners work with cutting-edge technology, traditional marketing approaches consistently fall flat. Gianna Whitver and Maria Velasquez, co-founders of the Cybersecurity Marketing Society, have spent six years understanding why—and they're sharing those insights at CyberMarketingCon 2025 this December in Austin.The challenge begins with the audience itself. Security professionals operate under constant pressure, actively preventing threats while juggling competing priorities. This stress creates an environment where patience for marketing noise evaporates instantly. Unlike other industries where buyers might browse vendor websites or respond to cold outreach, cybersecurity practitioners have both the technical sophistication to evade tracking and the motivation to control their own buying journey."Our buyer is highly elusive," Whitver explains. "They're saving the world and their companies from threats. When vendors reach out, it's an interruption to critical work." This dynamic forces marketers to rethink fundamental assumptions about how business gets done.The numbers tell part of the story. With over 5,000 cybersecurity vendors flooding the market, standing out based solely on technical specifications has become nearly impossible. Many solutions address similar problems with comparable features. The differentiator, Velasquez argues, isn't in the technology itself but in how that technology transforms the buyer's daily experience."We have to shed that technical layer and go for the emotion," Velasquez says. "If they buy our product, how is it gonna make them feel? Are they gonna get their weekends back with family? Are they actually gonna go to sleep without stress?" This human-centered approach represents a fundamental shift from the feeds-and-speeds messaging that dominated cybersecurity marketing for years.The industry is witnessing what Velasquez calls an "evolution slash revolution" in marketing tactics. Humor, entertainment, and authentic storytelling are replacing dense whitepapers as the first touch point. The goal isn't to dumb down complex technology but to create space for meaningful engagement by first addressing the emotional reality of a stressful profession.Trust remains the currency that matters most. Peer recommendations carry exponentially more weight than any advertising campaign. Security professionals rely on trusted networks to validate purchasing decisions, making community building and genuine thought leadership more valuable than aggressive outreach. Word-of-mouth referrals from colleagues who have seen real results trump even the most sophisticated demand generation campaigns.The emergence of AI as a marketing buzzword presents both opportunity and risk. Whitver notes that countless vendors now position themselves as "AI-native" or "agentic AI" solutions without articulating meaningful differentiation. "If that's what you remember about their product, what do you actually do?" she asks. The challenge for marketers is communicating AI's business value without contributing to the noise.CyberMarketingCon 2025 addresses these challenges head-on. Running December 7-10 in Austin, the conference brings together more than 550 marketing professionals for hands-on workshops, peer learning, and practical strategy sessions. Dedicated tracks cover brand, demand generation, operations, communications, and product marketing, with special summits for CEOs and sales leaders.Hands-on AI workshops represent a conference highlight. Attendees can build marketing agents using n8n, explore Clay for go-to-market planning, or participate in a marketer-focused capture-the-flag hacking exercise. The "Marketing Time Machine" theme balances timeless fundamentals with forward-looking innovation, acknowledging that effective marketing requires both solid foundations and experimental thinking.What sets CyberMarketingCon apart is its community-first philosophy. Despite 40-50% year-over-year growth, organizers prioritize maintaining an intimate, reunion-style atmosphere. Many CMOs bring entire teams for what becomes a working offsite, with different members attending specialized sessions then synthesizing insights into unified strategies.The conference's success metric reflects this philosophy. "Our KPI is: is it worth your time?" Whitver says. In an industry where time represents the scarcest resource, that might be the most important question of all.For cybersecurity marketers navigating an increasingly complex landscape, CyberMarketingCon offers something rare—a chance to learn from peers facing identical challenges, build practical skills, and remember that even in a technical industry, it's humans talking to humans. CyberMarketingCon 2025 In Person & Virtual https://www.cybermarketingconference.comDec 7-10, 2025 in Austin, Texas GUEST:Gianna WhitverCo-Founder & CEO, Cybersecurity Marketing Society | Cybersecurity GTM Industry Resource | Cybersecurity Marketing | Bees & Cybersecurity | Podcast Host | Community | (I like to build things & laugh a lot & tell jokes)Maria Velasquez
