Enjoy the episode? Send us a text!If you are watching this, it's likely your wife wants a divorce, and you want to save the marriage. If you are willing to take responsibility and step up as a leader, not a dictator, but a true husband and father, this video is for you.In this video, Dr. Joe Beam breaks down the psychology behind why women leave and introduces the concept of the "Push" and the "Pull." It isn't about magic bullets; it's about understanding the deep-seated "whys" behind her decision and taking specific actions to turn it around.

ABOUT THE EPISODE:You've been waiting for your child to say they're ready to get help. You've imagined that conversation a thousand times, rehearsed what you'll say, held your breath every time they seem close to opening up. But what happens if that moment arrives and you're under-prepared? What if that precious window closes before you even realize it was open?In this solo episode, I'm diving into a CRAFT procedure that often gets reduced to logistics when it's actually about something far more potent: the intersection where your child's desperation meets their willingness, and your preparation. I'm unpacking two elements that I believe parents consistently overlook. The first is understanding that this intersection requires a third component—your readiness. The second challenges who we define as the "identified patient" in this entire scenario, because if your child is the only one getting help while the rest of your family ecosystem stays static, you're essentially working to preserve the exact conditions that contributed to their struggle in the first place.This isn't easy work, but it's the kind that can reshape not just your relationship with your struggling child, but every relationship in your life. And you don't have to figure it out alone at three in the morning with Google and ChatGPT as your only companion.You'll learn:Why the magical intersection of desperation and willingness requires a third element that many parents missHow to prepare in the background so you're not scrambling when your child finally says they're ready for helpWhy your child shouldn't be the only "identified patient" and what your own version of treatment needs to look likeThe difference between rescuing your child from discomfort and allowing natural consequences that can actually motivate changeWhy obsessing over daily minutiae (dishes, grades, laundry) is often a distraction from the deeper internal work you need to be doingThis podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityGet our free, 4-video course, Hope Starts Here, and access to our Limited Membership hereLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsFind us on Instagram hereWatch the podcast on YouTube hereDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

Sermon Summary: Isaiah 6 – The Throne of God 1. God Is Still on the Throne The sermon opens with the foundational truth that God reigns from His throne, regardless of what is happening on earth. Political change, cultural instability, and personal loss do not remove God's authority. When Isaiah saw the Lord “high and lifted up,” it was a reminder that while earthly thrones may be empty or shaken, God's throne is eternal and unmovable. 2. The Throne Represents Authority, Power, and Judgment God's throne symbolizes His absolute dominion, holiness, and right to rule. Scripture repeatedly points to the throne as the center of heaven, where authority flows and judgment is rendered. God is not passive or distant—He governs all things and holds ultimate authority over creation. 3. God Is Holy and Must Be Reverenced Around the throne, the seraphim continually cry, “Holy, holy, holy.” The sermon stresses that God's holiness is not symbolic—it is real and overwhelming. True worship begins with reverence. When believers lose sight of God's holiness, they lose awe, conviction, and spiritual sensitivity. 4. Praise Brings God's Manifested Presence While God is omnipresent, the sermon teaches that praise invites His manifested presence. Scripture reveals that God is enthroned in the praises of His people. Praise is not about emotion—it is about acknowledging who God is, which invites His rule and power into personal situations. 5. Encountering God Produces Conviction and Cleansing When Isaiah encountered God's throne, he became immediately aware of his own sinfulness. True encounters with God lead to conviction, not condemnation. God cleansed Isaiah with the coal from the altar, demonstrating that God does not expose sin to shame us, but to purify and restore us. 6. God Cleanses Before He Commissions Before Isaiah was sent, God purified him. The sermon emphasizes that God always prepares before He sends. Cleansing, surrender, and humility are prerequisites for effective service. God is not looking for perfection, but for yielded hearts. 7. Availability Matters More Than Ability After being cleansed, Isaiah responded to God's call with, “Here am I. Send me.” The message highlights that God is not searching for the most talented, but for the most available. Willingness opens the door for divine assignment. 8. God Invites Us Into His Work God does not force obedience. He invites participation. The throne scene reveals a God who desires relationship and partnership with His people. When believers spend time in His presence, His desires become their desires. 9. The Throne Brings Perspective and Peace Isaiah entered the temple troubled by earthly leadership changes, but left with peace and purpose after seeing God on the throne. The sermon reminds believers that peace comes from perspective—fixing our eyes on God rather than circumstances. 10. Final Call The message concludes with a call to: Reverence God's holiness Enter His presence through praise Allow conviction and cleansing Yield fully to His authority Respond with availability The central truth of the sermon is clear: When we see God on His throne, everything else falls into proper place.

HOW TO FOLLOW JESUS. Jesus had one invitation for the disciples and that was "Follow Me."  Following means to walk the same road, doing what He does, hearing and doing His will. www.localcity.church

Every year I choose a “word of the year.” It's usually a single word that serves as a spiritual north star rather than a list of resolutions. After walking through seasons of discipline and discernment, my word for this year is "available."In this episode, I reflect on the biblical pattern we see in Moses, Isaiah, and others—people who weren't always ready, confident, or qualified—but who made themselves available to God. Availability, not readiness, is often the posture God uses most.This is a short devotional on what it means to live with open hands, to stop asking “Am I ready?” and start asking “Am I willing?”—and why God has never been limited by our readiness, but consistently works through our availability.

Ashwin built a $1.5B company in two years. He didn't do it with a massive team or a complex 5-year roadmap. He did it by ignoring "strategy" and talking to 100+ buyers until he found a problem so painful they would pay six figures for a solution that didn't fully exist yet.In this episode, Ashwin breaks down the exact playbook Decagon used to go from zero to unicorn.

In this episode, Jeff Mains sits down with Luv Kapur, a technology leader at Bit who's reshaping how enterprises build software. Luv shares his journey from leading platform engineering at one of Canada's largest pension funds to joining a startup on a mission to help organizations scale development through composability and AI-powered tools.The conversation explores how AI is fundamentally changing software development—not by writing more code, but by enabling teams to compose better solutions with less custom code. Luv challenges the hype around code generation, arguing that the real bottleneck isn't writing code but translating business requirements into sound architecture and reusing battle-tested components.Luv also offers a grounded perspective on AI's impact on jobs, the importance of discoverability in component libraries, and practical advice for CTOs building composable organizations.Key Takeaways[0:00] - Episode introduction: AI-powered, cloud-native enterprise development tools[1:00] - The hidden cost of poor discoverability in internal libraries and how it silently slows high-performing teams[4:26] - Luv's background: From leading platform engineering at Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan to joining Bit[4:47] - The spark for the leap: Believing in the mission of helping enterprises scale development globally[5:19] - The consistency problem: When products span multiple teams but feel disjointed to users[6:37] - Building a platform team whose customers are developers themselves[7:23] - Discoverability as the key problem: Developers couldn't find what already existed[9:24] - Why inner source software transforms development artifacts into invaluable organizational assets[11:37] - Viewing your org chart as a dependency graph, not a hierarchy[15:51] - The AI hype is justified, but code generation isn't the real bottleneck[17:01] - The bottleneck is translating business requirements into software architecture, not writing code[18:41] - AI should help us do less work, not more work[19:27] - Why developers won't lose jobs: There's infinite work, not finite work[20:19] - Reusing battle-tested components increases quality and reduces surface area for errors[21:59] - Reducing AI context to dependency graphs and APIs prevents hallucinations[23:05] - Private enterprise data is the gold mine for AI value[24:35] - The rise of citizen developers: Non-technical people building with natural language[26:40] - Empowering citizen developers with internal component marketplaces[27:19] - How AI changes the build vs. buy equation through faster prototyping[30:09] - Internal tools will be hit hardest by AI disruption[34:41] - SaaS companies must align with core business value to stay sticky[36:19] - The biggest mistake: Equating vibe-engineered solutions with production-ready software[39:01] - Building AI muscle: Start with clear scoped goals, not vague initiatives[40:45] - The future: Higher skill ceiling, elimination of junior developer roles, but more opportunities overall[43:45] - Junior developers must contribute to open source and build visible impact[44:31] - The one capability every software leader needs: Willingness to adopt AI and keep learningTweetable Quotes"For an internal team, if it doesn't get adopted, it's useless.

The Apostle Paul was moved with such compassion for his unbelieving countrymen that he was willing to be accursed of God for the sake of their salvation. Jesus Christ had such compassion for us that he did go to the cross to be cut off from his Father and was made to be a curse for us to secure our salvation. Does his compassion for you motivate you to reach Jew and Gentile alike with his glorious gospel? Tune in to hear Dr. Barnhouse on Dr. Barnhouse and the Bible.

Questions? Thoughts? Comments? Leave me a voicemail message to use in a future podcast episode: https://www.speakpipe.com/timschmoyerComment on the full post here: https://read.timschmoyer.com/p/divine-assignments-to-the-underpreparedA few weeks ago, I was texting with a friend about this “Elder My City” project. He mentioned that I'm “taking up the mantle to lead fathers in this direction” in our homes and cities.I remember sitting there thinking for a minute and then replying:“Oh man, now that you say that, taking up the mantle for this topic makes me nervous. I don't know that I'm qualified for it, but I also care about it deeply, so I will.”His reply was quicker than I anticipated:I read the message a few times. The pattern he recognized isn't that I'm competent in whatever I decide to pursue, but that I pursue the passions the Lord gives me and develop competence along the way.I replied:“Thanks. I don't feel that way, but I choose to believe that it's true.”Maybe you live in this same tension as I do, especially when it comes to fatherhood and pursuing elder qualifications as a God-fearing man. The tension is this:There's a gap between what you currently believe and what you want to believe.I Know This Gap WellAnd it keeps growing larger as I get older.* When I got married, what did I know about a healthy marriage? Nothing. But by God's grace and some hard work, we're still married 20 years later.* When my first child was born, what did I know about raising kids? Nothing. Yet here we are today with seven children.* When I started a business, what did I know about running one? Literally nothing. I didn't even know what a business plan was. But ten years later, it was a leader in our industry before being acquired in 2022.* When I started a blog called “Elder My City,” how deeply did I understand all the theological and practical implications of eldership? Not enough. Yet I know it's already been fruitful in my life and the lives of a few other men.Your story is probably similar. God's pattern isn't always preparation followed by assignment. Sometimes it's the opposite.I Think God Does This on PurposeMoses at the burning bush, stammering about his inadequate speech. Gideon hiding in a winepress, being called a “mighty warrior” while feeling like anything but. Jeremiah claiming he's too young. Peter, the impulsive fisherman, being told he'll become the rock on which the church is built.There's a pattern here: divine assignment to the underprepared.I used to think this was about God seeing potential we couldn't see in ourselves, and there may be some of that, but now I suspect it's about something else:It's about dependence.These assignments create a crisis that forces us to lean into resources we don't yet possess. Wisdom we haven't experienced. Strength we can't manufacture. Skills we haven't acquired.That's why Moses could lead Israel out of Egypt. Not because he had hidden eloquence, but because his stammering would force him to depend on God's words instead of his own. When he said, “Who am I to go to Pharaoh?” God didn't answer by listing Moses's qualifications. He answered, “I will be with you.” The inadequacy wasn't an obstacle to overcome—it was the whole point.Every moment of “I don't know if I can do this” has been preparation for sitting at some future gate where I'll need to say, “I don't have all the answers, but let's work through this together.”The Pattern I'm Learning to TrustEvery mission I've been sent on before I was ready has taught me that readiness isn't the prerequisite. Willingness is. The determination to show up despite limitations seems to be what God honors. It's His invitation into struggle that will form something in me I couldn't acquire any other way.I'm wrestling now with eldership — this biblical vision of becoming a man of wisdom and character who can serve his family and city. And I feel inadequate to it. Who am I to write and talk about it online?But maybe this is where every elder's journey begins. Not with competence, but with acknowledgment of inadequacy. Not with having answers, but with being willing to sit at the gate anyway, offering whatever wisdom he's gleaned from decades of stewarding businesses and families and faith.I don't feel adequate to be a city elder. But I'm learning to believe what I don't yet feel: God keeps sending me where I'm not ready because that's where He does His deepest work.And I'm sure He does the same with you. The question isn't whether you're prepared to be a father in your home, an elder in your city, and a ruler in the Kingdom to come. It's whether you're willing to go anyway. This is a public episode.

After a decade in high-performance finance at Goldman Sachs and Oaktree Capital, Hilary Hoffman realized the metrics she was optimizing for were no longer aligned with the life she wanted. She left the boardroom to build Soto Method, a results-driven fitness program rooted in discipline, measurable progress, and the truths she saw in the lives of ambitious, overextended people.In this conversation, Hilary shares the moment passion eclipsed stability, the soft skills she spent 10,000 hours developing in finance, and how these same traits (grit, adaptability, and structured focus) now define her founder journey. “One more second” became the heart of her method. She explains how she engineered recurring revenue to self-fund early growth and how a three-month Tribeca pop-up unexpectedly evolved into a sold-out proof of concept.Hilary also opens up about hiring her first key team member, what “willingness” really means in the people she brings on, and how she's building a meritocratic culture where initiative matters more than résumé. As a new mom of twins, she reflects on redefining success, creating boundaries with urgency, and why structure has become her antidote to overwhelm. From scaling an app into a brick-and-mortar brand to raising a strategic first round for national expansion, Hilary offers a grounded, honest look at what it takes to build something distinct in one of the most competitive industries in the world.Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction[04:52] What signaled Hilary to leave finance[09:38] How adapting your energy shifts how people receive you[13:27] Measurable progress defines Soto Method[17:56] Hiring for willingness reshaped Hilary's first key role[21:44] High performers engineer discipline through structure instead of motivation[26:33] How sequencing sessions, the app, and pop-ups fueled sustainable scale[30:50] How a three-month pop-up became a sold-out launchpad for expansion[34:41] What motherhood taught Hilary about redefining urgency, boundaries, and success[38:55] The simple daily practice Hilary uses to defuse stress Resources Mentioned:Founders Podcast by David Senra | Spotify or AppleLearn more about Hilary Hoffman:Hilary Hoffman | InstagramHilary Hoffman | LinkedInSoto Method | WebsiteSoto Method | InstagramFollow Nancy Twine:Instagram: @nancytwinewww.nancytwine.comFollow Makers Mindset:Instagram: @makersmindsetspaceTikTok: @themakersmindsetwww.makersmindset.com

In today's episode of the Managing Partners Podcast, Kevin Daisey sits down with legal business development expert Steve Fretzin to break down the real reasons law firms struggle with growth — and the simple shifts that can transform your pipeline, profitability, and client quality. Steve dives into his sales-free selling approach, revealing why most attorneys jump into pitching too fast, fail to qualify effectively, and overlook the deeper business issues holding them back. From intake breakdowns to bad client fit, outdated marketing assumptions, and lack of consistent networking, Steve and Kevin show law firm owners how to regain control and build a healthier, more scalable practice. You'll learn how to ask better questions, diagnose problems before offering solutions, avoid time-wasters, say “no” sooner, and create a prospect pipeline that lets you attract the clients you want — not the ones you're stuck with.

I stumbled across a great post to share from Words of Wise | Mindset Coach (@Wordofwise_) and even though it's coming out later than I wanted to today, it still reminded me of some things that I needed to connect with.  “To be successful at anything, you don't have to be special. You simply have to be what most people are not. Consistent, determined, and willing to work for it.” The key that jumped out to me was that we don't need anyone's permission for us to do the things we need to do. We get to choose if we are consistent. We are the ones that can say how determined we will be with the things we choose to do. We for sure don't need permission to have the willingness to work on things we find a connection too.  For me, there are so many distractions out there that affect me as to how I use my time throughout the day. No more!! (or at least I need to try to have it happen not as often and keep going from there.)  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

After working directly with Tom Nagle at Monitor Group and leading value initiatives at LeveragePoint, Forrester, and Ibbaka, Ed has become one of the most respected practitioners of Economic Value Estimation (EVE) in B2B. In this episode, Ed and Mark dive deep into what "value" actually means, why B2B buyers define it differently than sellers, and how to quantify economic outcomes in a way that withstands scrutiny. They debate value vs. willingness to pay, unpack why value stories outperform case studies, and explore how real conversations—not spreadsheets—unlock premium pricing.   Why You Have to Check Out Today's Episode: Master the real meaning of "value" in B2B—and why most companies still get it wrong. Discover how to run a value conversation that reveals economic impact and customer priorities. Learn how to turn EVE models into persuasive value stories your buyers can resell internally.   "You need to quantify the value of the product you're selling—and you need to talk to customers about that to understand it and write their value story."  — Ed Arnold   Topics Covered: 05:09 – Value Perception in B2B: Why Customers Decide with Both Logic and Emotion 08:34 – Value vs. Willingness to Pay: The Debate Begins 12:06 – Why Willingness to Pay Is Not Value (And What It Actually Measures) 19:04 – Value Perception in B2B Sales: Influence, Trust, and Risk 20:41 – Value Is Always Relative (And Why Alternative Choices Change Everything) 24:26 – Value-Based vs. Competitor Pricing: Why They Aren't the Same Thing 28:03 – Value Story vs. Case Study: What Buyers Actually Need to Make Decisions 32:47– Quantifying Product Value: How to Build a Story Buyers Can Take to Their Executives   Key Takeaways: "Value comes from use, not purchase." — Ed Arnold "Willingness to pay is not value, if it were, we'd never talk about leaving money on the table." — Ed Arnold "In B2B, value is 80% logic, 20% emotion." — Ed Arnold "A value story is customized. A case study is generic." — Ed Arnold "You can't build a value story without having a value conversation first." — Ed Arnold "Sometimes the value model reveals there simply isn't a differentiated advantage—and you have to accept that." — Ed Arnold    People and Resources Mentioned: Tom Nagle: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-tom-nagle LeveragePoint: https://www.leveragepoint.com/  Reed Holden: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reed-holden-913ab69/    Connect with Ed Arnold: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edarnold1/  Newsletter: https://edarnold1.substack.com/    Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com  

In this episode, Lauren and Trey explore what it really looks like to shadowbox through conflict instead of slipping into fusion, isolation, or the old patterns their bodies once relied on.They discuss Jessica Fern's Distancer–Pursuer dance, celebrating the one who reaches for connection under stress and the one who pulls toward autonomy. Lauren then brings up their recent train ride back from NYC and how Trey surprised them both by turning toward connection instead of shutting down. She explains how the rough start began with a taxi stopping in the middle of traffic at Penn Station, lowering Trey's resiliency score before the conversation even began. Trey breaks down his Resiliency Check-In scale for listeners:Resiliency Check-In:5 = I could jump through a wall4 = I could accomplish anything3 = I'm good to go for the basic tasks2 = I probably need to be in bed watching TV1 = No, I can't do anything and I need to take a bath and go to bedThey walk through the uncomfortable minutes waiting for their train, the shadows that surfaced, and the trauma nap Lauren took as her infant self's old coping strategy. They revisit the moment when Trey looked out the window and admitted he wanted to run away, and how choosing to stay shifted everything. They talk about why resolving things quickly to keep the peace is tempting, and why sitting in discomfort is often the more honest path.Hours later, Lauren describes the internal battle of trying to say no, sensing her system avoid the threat of disconnection, and how Trey encouraged clarity instead of collapse. She reflects on the roots of not being able to say no in her home of origin, then shares how the Willingness and Wanting Scales from their Like a Pro training helped her discover that her truth was not a simple no but a yes with limits or a yes if that.Lauren closes with pride in the way they shadowboxed on the train with tenderness and skill. Trey shares why walking is still his favorite way to have hard conversations and why trains will probably never be his preferred arena for relational growth.If any of these subjects have piqued your interest, request a free consult at: www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultIf this episode resonates with you, please like, subscribe, and share with someone who may need to hear these words.About Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.

Today's sermon explored the biblical view of work, challenging the common divide between “sacred” and “secular” vocations. Drawing from Ephesians 6:4-10 and various biblical examples, we saw that God's Spirit fills people in all kinds of jobs—gardeners, politicians, construction workers—not just pastors or missionaries. The message emphasized that our daily work is a mission field, and how we work matters deeply to God. We are called to work sincerely, not just for eye service or to please people, but as if we are serving Jesus Himself. Both employees and employers are to model Christlike character: employees with integrity and diligence, employers with humility and fairness. Ultimately, our work is an act of worship, and we will give an account to our true Master, Jesus.

Change rarely begins with certainty. It begins with a decision to act. In this episode, Nathan is joined by Michael Sheldrick to explore what it takes to turn ideas into real impact.    Michael Sheldrick is the Co-Founder and Chief Policy, Impact and Government Affairs Officer for Global Citizen, who oversees a global team of 30 professionals who work with governments, businesses, foundations, and artists to end extreme poverty and achieve the sustainable development goals. As a believer that lasting change begins with action, he is guided by optimism and a global outlook where he sees technology, creativity, and collaboration as tools to amplify humanity's potential. Turning his gratitude into service, Michael made a lifelong commitment to empower others to act, adapt, and reimagine what's possible.  EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS    [01:00] Introduction and background of Michael Sheldrick.  [04:11] Choosing to act meaningfully in your sphere of influence.  [07:11] Turning belief and gratitude into meaningful change.  [13:34] Willingness to ask for help.   [17:21] Systemic change through collaboration and creativity.  [25:30] The promise and paradox of AI.  [35:03] AI, labor, and creativity.   [38:50] The role of education in the future uncertainty.   [43:55] What's in the future for Michael?   RESOURCES    Connect with Michael Sheldrick  LinkedIn - linkedin.com/in/michael-sheldrick-30364051/   Website - michaelsheldrick.com/     From Ideas to Impact: A Playbook for Influencing and Implementing Change in a Divided World   by Michael Sheldrick  amazon.com/dp/1394202342   Connect with Nathan and Scott: LinkedIn (Nathan): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/nathanchappell/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ LinkedIn (Scott): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/scott-rosenkrans⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fundraising.ai/⁠⁠

The offseason is officially underway for the Red Sox and there is lots of optimism about if more big moves will be made. Will Craig Breslow and others make that happen? Then, keep an eye on every move that occurs throughout the whole MLB offseason and remember the impending lockout will be a factor in them all. And, the Celtics escaped the lowly Nets and Joe Mazzulla found a unique way to motivate Jaylen Brown.

The Historical Roots of Russian Brutality and Putin's Ideological Driver. Professor Eugene Finkel explains that the pervasive cruelty in Russian forces stems from a historical willingness to use extreme violence, where human life is cheap, evident from Stalin's cynical fears of losing Ukraine to modern conflicts. Russians are willing to make Ukraine a desert to secure control, employing methods consistent with their actions in Chechnya and Syria. In 2022, Putin, trapped in isolation with like-minded nationalists, believed Ukrainians would not fight back.

In this special episode of Cloud Wars Live, Bob Evans speaks with Chad Wahlquist, Architect at Palantir, about the company's explosive Q3 growth and the accelerating adoption of its AI Platform (AIP). They explore how AIP serves as an operating system for the enterprise, enabling customers to achieve global optimization, faster ROI, and model flexibility. Wahlquist also talks about Palantir's open, interoperable architecture and its commitment to delivering value at speed, especially for customers in high-stakes, high-pressure environments.Operate Smarter, Not SlowerThe Big Themes:Speed to Value: Many companies still operate under the assumption that meaningful transformation requires multi‑year timelines (two to three years, sometimes more). Palantir is pushing the idea that you must deliver value in months, three to six months, rather than years. This shift is critical because when business markets move fast, and when competitive advantage erodes quickly, speed becomes a differentiator. If you wait for years, you may miss the window or be out‑paced.Interoperability and Ecosystem Integration: The platform isn't trying to lock you into a “box” you must keep your data in; it instead emphasizes plug‑in interoperability with systems you already have. Wahlquist mentions connectors, SDKs, APIs, and plug‑ins to partners like Snowflake, Databricks, SAP, NVIDIA. The concept: if you already have investment in some systems, don't throw them away; just connect them. This increases the speed to value and reduces friction.Ambition, Willingness to Operate in Crisis: Wahlquist points out they often engage with customers who are under pressure. These customers need value now, not two or three years out. Situations like supply chain disruption, plant outages, labor issues, etc., are real. This situational urgency forces companies to adopt architectures and partners that can deliver now. The takeaway: It's not enough to believe you'll transform in the future; transformation architecture must be built for today's fires.The Big Quote: “Our goal is really: how do we scale our customers and the outcomes they're delivering — not just the number of customers?"More from Chad and Palantir:Follow Chad on LinkedIn or get an overview of Palantir's Q3 in its letter to shareholders.

Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA), the first female combat veteran elected to the U.S. Senate and author of Daughter of the Heartland: My Ode to the Country that Raised Me, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss the now record-breaking government shutdown, which has become the longest in U.S. history. Sen. Ernst weighed in on the fiery exchange between Senators Moreno and Rosen, where Moreno thrashed Rosen for refusing to acknowledge that Democrats are the real holdouts in the ongoing shutdown, as they are actively holding out votes for a clean CR. Ernst also reacted to the Trump administration's latest military strikes targeting cartel boats in international waters, and she ended the interview by discussing her new bill aimed at selling off vacant federal buildings to save taxpayer money.
