Kevin Maney: The Category Creation Formula for Winning Markets in the AI Era AI is making products easier to build, but meaningful differentiation harder to sustain. A stronger feature set, a faster model, or simply adding an “AI-powered” label may not be enough to convince customers that a new market should exist in the first place. Kevin Maney, bestselling author, technology commentator, and founding partner of Category Design Advisors, joins me to unpack the Category Creation Formula: Context + Missing + Innovation = New Market Category. Developed through nearly a decade of fieldwork with more than 50 companies, the framework offers a practical way to understand when markets are ready to change: identify what has shifted around the customer, uncover the newly urgent need that shift creates, and then design the innovation the market is ready to embrace. Our conversation moves beyond conventional product-market fit toward a more fundamental question: What would market-product fit look like? We explore why being first matters less than establishing the accepted dominant design, why competitors can actually validate rather than weaken a new category, and why successful category creation starts outside the organization, not with the technology already sitting inside it. In an era of AI abundance, compressed innovation cycles, and increasingly crowded markets, this conversation offers a different way to think about growth. It is particularly relevant for CEOs, transformation leaders, investors, and founders asking not simply how to build a better product, but how to create a market that wants it. KEY TAKEAWAYS What I found particularly compelling in this conversation with Kevin is his challenge to one of the most deeply embedded assumptions in innovation: that we should build a product and then find its market. Kevin turns that logic around with the idea of market-product fit. Instead of starting with what our technology can do, we should start by understanding what has changed in the world around our customers, what new problem that change has created, and what innovation could solve it. His Category Creation Formula, Context + Missing + Innovation, gives leaders a simple but powerful way to make that shift. I also loved Kevin's perspective on category leadership. Being first is not necessarily the objective. The real goal is to establish the dominant design that shapes how customers understand and expect the category to work. And, counterintuitively, competition can help because other players entering the market validate the category in customers' minds. For me, this is a particularly important lesson in today's crowded AI landscape. Finally, Kevin makes a distinction I think every leader should consider: using AI to make the existing business more efficient is only one side of the opportunity. The bigger question is what entirely new products, services, and ways of operating become possible because AI has changed the context. As AI itself becomes foundational and ubiquitous, the differentiator will increasingly be what humans do with it, and the ideas they create about what comes next. BEST MOMENTS “Category design is a strategy. And when I think of positioning and marketing, those are things that a company does.” – Kevin Maney [13:52] “Product-market fit has led a lot of people to think we'll build this product and figure out a market to put it into. And we talked about it, saying, like, it's actually market-product fit.” – Kevin Maney [25:00] “Your ultimate goal is to win the dominant design. It's not to be the day one, first mover, be the first one to say, ‘We're creating this category.'” – Kevin Maney [29:57] “Your goal is not to wipe out all competition, your goal is to be the dominant design and make all of your competitors follow you.” – Kevin Maney [29:57] “I actually believe that the big AI models... that's going to become, at some point, as boring as the internet or as electricity. What excites me is what you can do with it.” – Kevin Maney [37:26] “AI is trained on the past, and it's only going to understand the past, and it's going to be the humans that create the future.” – Kevin Maney [49:19]   ABOUT THE GUEST Kevin Maney is a bestselling author, award-winning technology commentator, and founding partner of Category Design Advisors. He is the co-author of The Category Creation Formula and Play Bigger, and spent 22 years as a technology journalist at USA Today. His work has also appeared in publications including Newsweek, Fortune, The Atlantic, and Wired. Kevin helps leadership teams identify, define, and develop new market categories. Through nearly a decade of category-design work with more than 50 companies, his focus has included market-product fit, dominant design, the adjacent possible, strategic points of view, and the leadership alignment required to translate innovation into an understood and adopted market choice.   ABOUT THE HOST Sabine VanderLinden is a corporate strategist turned entrepreneur and the CEO of Alchemy Crew Ventures.

Senator Bernie Sanders joins Kendall Scudder to discuss what Democrats need to do to win in Texas and turn electoral victories into lasting political change. Sanders makes the case for building coalitions around policies affecting working-class Americans, from healthcare and wages to education and taxes, while arguing that winning elections means little if leaders fail to deliver once in office. The conversation also touches on grassroots organizing, campaign finance, the future of Texas politics, and one Vermont recommendation Sanders would rather keep secret.    Pod Bless Texas: www.podblesstexas.com Follow Kendall Scudder: @kendallscudder   Bernie Sanders: Bernie Sanders: https://berniesanders.com Instagram: @BernieSanders

What if the biggest mistake you could make in a challenging market is pulling back while your competitors are doing the same thing?   When business slows down, it's natural to cut expenses, protect cash, and wait for better conditions. But Alan Mulally's turnaround of Ford Motor Company offers construction leaders a different playbook: confront reality, create transparency, keep your strategy simple, get your team working toward the same goals, and continue investing in the areas that can create an advantage when the market rebounds.   In this episode, Bradley Hartmann shares his biggest leadership and management lessons from Bryce Hoffman's American Icon: Alan Mulally and the Fight to Save Ford Motor Company and explains why those lessons are especially relevant for leaders navigating today's challenging construction market.   You'll discover: How Alan Mulally used radical transparency and the principle that "you can't manage a secret" to break down silos and get leaders confronting the same reality. Why a simple, durable strategy can help your team navigate massive market changes without abandoning the plan and starting over. Why continuing to invest in your people, processes, and products while competitors hunker down can position your business to emerge stronger when conditions improve.   Play the episode to discover how the leadership principles that helped turn Ford around can help you build a more aligned, resilient, and competitive business through uncertain markets.   At Bradley Hartmann & Company, we help construction teams improve sales, leadership,  and communication by reducing miscommunication, strengthening teamwork, and bridging language gaps between English and Spanish speakers.

What happens when you decide that life—and running—actually begins after age 50? In this episode of Your Story, Your Why, we sit down with Paul Latham, a Jamaican immigrant based in Fort Worth, Texas. Growing up in Jamaica active in casual sports, running was never Paul's primary focus. It wasn't until well into his 50s, after a personal trainer pointed out his need for stamina, that Paul laced up his shoes for a three-mile walk on a local track.After running over 200 5Ks and becoming comfortable at the half marathon distance, a coworker challenged Paul to break through his self-imposed limits by entering the Chicago Marathon lottery. Winning a spot launched a transformative distance-running career. Now preparing for his 13th marathon at the Cape Town Marathon, Paul reflects on the value of stepping outside comfort zones, the power of volunteering at major World Marathon Majors, and his goal to stay moving well into his 80s and 90s.Key TakeawaysLife Begins Whenever You Decide: Age is not a barrier to starting distance running; Paul ran his first marathon after turning 50.Break Self-Imposed Ceilings: Often, the only thing holding us back from longer distances or bigger goals is a mental limitation.Volunteer for Perspective: Serving as a course marshal or aid station volunteer builds deep gratitude for race directors and fellow athletes.Value Experiences Over Things: The connections, travel, and personal growth gained through distance running far outweigh material items.Connect with Paul Latham: FacebookTraining Program Mentioned: Cowtown TrailblazersRaces Mentioned: Chicago Marathon, Cape Town Marathon, Boston Marathon, Cowtown MarathonFollow Marathon Journal: Website | InstagramWhat goal have you been holding back on because it felt outside your comfort zone?

It's been a minute! After taking a little break, I'm back and, naturally, there is A LOT to talk about.I started this episode by talking about what I think a championship team actually looks and feels like, and what separates a team that can compete from a team that can actually win it all.From there, we've got plenty of hot topics: DeWanna Bonner joining the Atlanta Dream, Kate Martin being waived and where I'd like to see her go next, Nneka Ogwumike's retirement and what's going on with the Sparks, plus a quick conversation about the Mercury and some of their struggles this season.I also talked about A'ja Wilson and Kelsey Plum not joining Team USA for the World Cup, shared some pre-World Cup thoughts, and then went team-by-team through the playoff field. What do I love about each team? What could get them in trouble? And what am I most excited to see once the playoffs start?And because apparently that wasn't enough, there's a hot take, a little Portland Fire conversation (because yes, I already think they could be a playoff team next season), and some love for Bridget Carleton after her performance against the Lynx and why I thought she stepped into an All-Star mindset.Basically… I took a break, the WNBA kept moving, and now we have some catching up to do.-Follow me on social media:https://linktr.ee/toriphillips5-Chapters:00:00 Intro00:17 Topics for the episode & Housekeeping 02:23 Feeling a championship in the air03:30 Hot Topics | DeWanna Bonner to the Dream06:38 Kate Martin | Nneka Ogwumike & Thoughts on the Sparks 10:40 The Mercury? 12:41 Circling back on the Sparks & Kate 18:00 A'ja Wilson and Kelsey Plum | Choosing Health 21:24 Pre-World Cup Thoughts23:29 Checklist to Winning a Chip28:18 Lynx36:18 Valkyries 40:47 Aces 45:47 Fever 51:17 Dream56:35 Liberty 1:04:06 Mystics 1:08:27 Wings 1:12:48 MY HOTTEST TAKE01:13:17 Portland Fire (I Love Y'all for real)1:16:24 Bridget Carleton's Defense is Missed 

This month on Winning at Honey with Stephanie, Stephanie Slater turns her attention to a honey show category that doesn't appear at every competition: pollen. Preparing pollen for competition requires more than simply collecting it from a pollen trap. Stephanie walks through what judges look for, including cleanliness, proper moisture, aroma and flavor, consistent fill levels, and a colorful variety of pollen. She also shares lessons from her own first pollen entry—and the judge's comment card that showed her where she could improve. You'll learn how Stephanie collects and freezes pollen, uses a fan to separate lighter debris, hand-cleans small batches with tweezers, and prepares jars for judging. She also explains why you should bring extra pollen to the show to correct settling and fill levels before submitting your entry. Stephanie also discusses balancing pollen collection with the nutritional needs of the colony, including her practice of activating traps for only 24 hours before giving the bees several days of unrestricted pollen collection. Finally, this month's Honey Show Spotlight looks at upcoming competitions in Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, and the 2026 Missouri State Beekeepers Association Fall Conference, where Stephanie will be helping with the honey show. Whether you're preparing your first pollen entry or looking for another category to add to your show bench, it's time to start cleaning those pollen pellets! Blue skies and blue ribbons!

Two athletes can step onto the same stage with the same goal and need completely different strategies to get there.In this episode of Stronger By Design, Michelle MacDonald sits down with her Tulum Strength Club partner Jean-Jacques Barrett to break down what really goes into building a successful show prep strategy around the individual athlete.From starting physique and muscle maturity to division requirements, conditioning, training performance, recovery, adherence and mindset, Michelle and Jean-Jacques explain why great contest prep is a constantly evolving process. The job of the coach isn't simply to push harder. It's knowing when to push, when to hold and when to pull back.They explore the difference between simply getting stage ready and becoming truly competitive, why first-time amateurs require a different approach than seasoned champions, and how the margins become razor thin as athletes progress to higher levels of competition.You'll also hear why giving yourself enough time can completely change a prep, how coaches evaluate progress beyond the scale, why communication and execution become increasingly important as show day approaches, and why peak-week strategy actually begins much earlier than most competitors realize.Perhaps most importantly, Michelle and Jean-Jacques explain why athletes shouldn't copy someone else's prep and may not even want to repeat their own previous prep. Your physique, experience, conditioning, psychology and capabilities should evolve from one competition to the next.Whether you're preparing for your first show, chasing a pro title, defending a championship or coaching athletes yourself, this conversation offers an inside look at the strategy, judgment and collaboration required to bring your best physique to the stage.Favorite Moments0:00 Stage Ready vs. Competitive: There's a Difference2:39 Muscle Maturity: Why Training Age Changes Your Prep4:54 The Show Date Doesn't Move: Why Your Prep Timeline Matters7:09 Why Smart Coaches Give First-Time Athletes More Time10:24 "I'm Tired" vs. "I Can't Perform": Knowing the Difference11:47 13 Weeks Out: Why You Can't Afford to Lose Time13:39 Stage Ready vs. Competitive: What Changes as You Advance?18:12 A Game of Millimeters: What Separates Champions19:44 Why You Shouldn't Make Emotional Prep Decisions for Yourself22:08 Push, Hold or Pull Back: How Coaches Make the Call27:17 Sometimes the Smartest Move Is NOT to Push Harder29:51 Your Coach Can Only Fine-Tune What You're Actually Executing32:44 Give Your Coach Everything They Need to Help You Win34:23 Peak Week Starts Much Earlier Than You Think36:30 Why You Can't Even Copy Your Own Previous Prep36:56 Give Yourself Permission to WinGUEST: JEAN-JACQUES BARRETTInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeanjacquesbarrett/?hl=enWebsite: https://tulumstrengthclub.com/Jean-Jacques Barrett is the co-founder of Tulum Strength Club, promoter of the FMG Mexico show, a two-time world champion and an experienced contest prep coach.

Home services marketing has a hidden battleground, and most owners never fund it. It is the messy middle, the 40 to 100 days a homeowner spends circling a project before they ever search your name. Rick Brown and Carole Lawson of MarketStorm have spent years mapping that window, and what happens inside it decides who gets the call. In this episode, Tersh Blissett and Josh Crouch sit down with Rick, CEO and co-founder of MarketStorm, and Carole, its co-founder and chief data officer and a Harvard-trained data scientist, to break down how buyer behavior changed after the pandemic and why the last click is no longer the whole story. You will hear why a competitor can outrank you on your own brand name, the 50/50 split Google now recommends between upper and lower funnel, and how one plumbing company chased last-click reporting from 10 million back down to 2.

On the Contacts Coaching Podcast, coach John Seavey discusses his path from playing basketball to becoming a student manager at the University of Arizona under Sean Miller, a pivotal experience that led him into coaching, then staying as a GA to earn his master's degree. He followed associate head coach Joe Pasternack to UC Santa Barbara (2017–2022), where he learned organizational discipline, relationship-building, fundraising, and navigating institutional politics after a long-tenured coach. Seavey then moved to Cal State Monterey Bay under Isaac Williams, gaining major on-court growth by running the defense, learning communication, tactical adjustments, and roster construction through mistakes and mentorship. He joined DJ Broome at Cal Poly Humboldt, completed a strong first season, and was promoted to associate head coach, emphasizing identity, community investment, process-driven improvement, effort evaluation, and guiding players to answers through questions.00:00 Welcome and Introductions00:30 John Seavey Coaching Origin01:14 Student Manager Pathway02:40 Arizona to Santa Barbara Move03:09 Monterey Bay Learning Curve04:32 Humboldt Transition and Promotion05:33 Manager Versus Ops Restrictions08:00 Following a Legend at UCSB11:16 Politics and Admin Relationships14:36 Humboldt Relationship Blueprint16:21 Mistakes That Built a Coach20:04 Defense Coordinator by Fire22:47 Letting Assistants Own Schemes25:46 Roster Construction and Fit29:04 Recruiting Pipelines and Trends31:46 Beyond Basketball Differences32:22 Arizona Pro Mindset33:50 UCSB Building a Program35:04 Division II Reality Check35:39 Carryover Coaching Lessons40:20 Community Investment Culture42:05 Fundraising Relentless Yes46:51 Sustaining Winning Identity52:33 Process Over Scoreboard56:16 Measuring Effort on Film59:31 Guide Players to Answers01:02:40 Patience and Long Game01:05:15 Closing Coastline Banter

“Winners never quit” sounds inspiring—until persistence starts doing more harm than good. Journalist Lindsay Crouse, author of The Case for Quitting: The Surprising Benefits of Opting Out, explains why walking away can sometimes be the smartest path forward. Then Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Julia Keller shares ideas from Quitting: A Life Strategy: The Myth of Perseverance and How the New Science of Giving Up Can Set You Free. Together, they challenge our reflexive worship of grit and explore how to recognize when perseverance has become a trap.

United States Naval Academy Athletic Director Mike Kelly joins us for a conversation about Navy's 36 varsity sports, one of the most successful years in Navy Athletics history, and what makes competing at a service academy different in today's rapidly changing college sports landscape. Kelly talks about Navy football's 11-win season, winning the Star Series and Patriot League Presidents' Cup, and Navy's strong national finish in the Learfield Directors' Cup. Winning matters. Winning with integrity matters even more here at the Naval Academy. — Mike Kelly, USNA Athletic Director  We also get into NIL and the transfer portal — and why Kelly believes Navy's different approach may actually be an advantage — along with improvements at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, the financial realities of operating 36 Division I programs, and some of the Navy sports that fans may be overlooking. And yes, we find out whether the former high school basketball player can still knock down a three-pointer. Looking ahead, Kelly talks about his goals for Navy Athletics, including another Commander-in-Chief's Trophy, an American Athletic Conference championship and, ultimately, getting Navy into the College Football Playoff.

Alex Buckner didn't fall in love with coaching, he fell in love with winning. In this episode, the tour coach behind Marco Penge's breakout three win 2025 season opens up about reverse engineering an entire career: from a failed playing career and three jobs just to fund tournament entries, to becoming an "OG" Skillest power user documenting thousands of in person lessons, to reinventing himself again and again, short game specialist, long game coach, and now full service performance manager for elite players.Alex breaks down exactly how he turned Marco Penge from a player who "twatted" every driver into the tour's most accurate off the tee, why he coaches almost exclusively on the golf course instead of the range, and the real story behind Marco's equipment switch to Mizuno on the PGA Tour (including the sole design mistake nobody talks about). He also tackles the steep vs shallow short game debate head on, explains why "free swing analysis" is a waste of everyone's time, and shares the decision making framework he's used since his early 20s to bet on himself, going a full year on the DP World Tour before he even knew if he'd get paid.If you're a coach, an aspiring tour player, or just someone trying to figure out how much intention it takes to build the career you actually want, this one's packed with it.

Carl and Mike are joined by Coach Jerry Mack as they preview Kennesaw State's seson opener tomorrow night.

Winning the RIGHT Way

Dr. David Spindler is a neuroscientist, cognitive performance strategist, and elite athlete wellbeing expert who's spent his career helping athletes and teams understand that brain chemicals matter. He's worked with some of the biggest names in professional sport, most famously alongside Mark Cavendish through the darkest years of his career, chronicled in Netflix's "Never Enough."Three big segments in this one.Team culture. David breaks down the actual neurochemistry behind why old-school GreenEDGE had that "I'd do anything for my mate next to me" quality — it comes down to oxytocin, the same bonding chemical released when a parent holds their newborn, and why some teams manufacture it constantly while others can't buy it no matter how much they spend. He and Alex build an entire hypothetical Australian WorldTour team from a blank sheet of paper — values, non-negotiables, culture — and get into why "old school Green Edge" gets thrown around constantly but almost nobody can actually define what it means.Concussion. A proper breakdown of concussion protocols in the peloton and why cycling is dangerously behind rugby and the NFL on brain safety — including the messy legal reason nobody wants to call an impact sensor a "concussion sensor," and who actually carries liability when a rider gets hurt.Training the brain. David explains the real neuroscience of reactionary decision-making, why riders like Tadej Pogačar seem to have supernatural crash radar, and the actual mechanics of how he trains neural efficiency in elite endurance athletes to extend time to exhaustion — plus how his own PhD on decision-making under physiological load in professional cyclists led him down this path in the first place.

New world No. 1 Zhao Xintong eased past Oliver Brown 4-1 in the first round of the snooker British Open in Cheltenham. Reigning world champion Wu Yize struggled to find his best form against Kyren Wilson and fell to the 2024 world champion 4-1.

In our conversation with Mark Shupe, author of "The Moneyball Method: A Middle-Class Manifesto for Objective Investing," we delve into the essential principles of objective investing and the fallacies surrounding traditional financial advice. Shupe elucidates the significance of understanding money, prices, markets, and profits, emphasizing that money should not be demonized but rather respected for its role in facilitating production and value creation. He introduces the concept of "risk capacity," which shifts the focus from conventional notions of risk tolerance to a more personalized assessment of how much one can afford to lose. The discussion further explores the importance of cash flow management and the critical role of time in achieving investment success, challenging the prevailing belief that beating the market is paramount. Ultimately, this episode serves as a clarion call for middle-class investors to adopt a rational, evidence-based approach to investing that prioritizes personal values and long-term goals.Show notes with links to articles, blog posts, products and services:The Moneyball Method: A Middle-Class Manifesto for Objective Investing (book)The Moneyball Method blog on SubstackThe Moneyball Method on YouTubeMoneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game - WikipediaMoneyball (film)David Loeper - Wealth ManagementJohn Tamny on Twitter (X)Rick Rescorla - WikipediaHeart of a Soldier - Simon & SchusterEpisode 114 (56 minutes) was recorded at 2200 Central European Time, on August 23, 2026, with Alitu's recording feature.

Alice Han and James Kynge start with the global AI race after an OpenAI system reportedly broke free and hacked into Hugging Face — a mess that pushed Hugging Face toward Chinese firm Z.ai's open-source model, and gave Z.ai an opening to argue China's open-weight approach is the safer one. They dig into a suspected Chinese bot farm quietly fueling U.S. opposition to AI data centers, Bill Gates's push for a sit-down with Xi on AI risk, and striking new polling on just how differently Chinese and American publics feel about trusting AI. Then: as U.S.-Canada trade talks collapse into a new round of tariffs, Alice and James ask who really benefits — and make the case that every dollar the U.S. and Canada spend fighting each other over autos is a dollar of market share flowing to Chinese manufacturers. Plus, how China is quietly benefiting from continuing to buy the vast majority of Iran's oil exports even as Washington threatens new sanctions. Finally: a devastating glacier collapse on the Nepal-Tibet border has triggered catastrophic flooding, with the death toll climbing past 600 and thousands still missing across both countries. Alice and James look at China's response so far — and the new hazard that's already emerged downstream.

“Economic D-Day against Iran” makes for great TV, but it only matters if the US can actually enforce it. Kyle sits down with Larry Johnson, a former CIA analyst and the writer behind Sonar21, to pressure-test the Trump administration's new sanctions push, “Operation Economic Outcast,” and the claims that it will isolate Tehran, choke off military funding, and reopen business as usual in the Gulf. We dig into what's happening around the Strait of Hormuz, why official narratives can clash with independent shipping tracker data, and how visibility, radar, and maritime traffic shape energy markets in real time. From there, we get concrete about enforcement: if Iran's trade is increasingly conducted in Chinese yuan through Chinese banks, meaningful pressure points shift from Tehran to Beijing, raising the stakes of secondary sanctions and retaliation. We also talk through the practical energy fallout, including oil supply timing, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve drawdown, and why shortages in diesel and aviation fuel can show up after a delay. The conversation then widens to the regional and security consequences that often get ignored. We discuss how decades of Washington's fixation on Iran has repeatedly empowered Sunni extremist networks, why Syria's new rulers cannot be judged by a suit and a name change, and what new flashpoints could look like, from Gulf escalation risks to Israel Turkey tensions and Netanyahu's incentives ahead of elections.

You know you're supposed to show up. You know the producers you want are watching. But every time you sit down to post, one of two things happens. Either it comes out sounding like a corporate mission statement nobody feels, or you freeze up, stare at the screen, and decide you've got nothing worth saying. Here's what I want you to walk away with today. The producers you want are already watching you online, and they're deciding whether you're a leader worth following. The goal on social is to show up consistently and cast a future they want to be part of, in a voice that sounds like you and not a press release. I'll give you five moves to do that without sounding stiff and without ever running out of things to say. Episode Breakdown [00:01:20] The Mistake That's Keeping Your Content From Recruiting Most leaders post to the wrong audience. They talk to consumers and to agents, the people they sell to, and then they wonder why no producers ever reach out. If everything on your page is about rates, market updates, and closings, a loan officer scrolling by sees nothing that speaks to them. The people you're trying to recruit aren't your customers. They don't care about your rate specials, they care about where you're going, what it's like to be led by you, and whether they'd grow by being on your team. The day I stopped posting like a producer and started posting like a leader, everything changed. [00:02:24] Move 1: See Yourself as a Media Company First Most leaders think of themselves as a mortgage pro who happens to post online now and then. Flip that completely. You're a media company that happens to do mortgages. The moment I started seeing the world through that lens, content stopped feeling like a chore I had to squeeze in and started becoming the business itself. Attention is what earns you the conversation, and content is how you get attention. It isn't a side project, it's the top of your entire recruiting funnel. [00:03:00] Move 2: Lead With You, Not the Platform The leader is the product, the company is not. Every company out there offers basically the same platform, the same comp structure, the same licensing reach. It's a sea of sameness, and sameness never moves anybody. The one thing that sets you apart is you, your value stack, your coaching track record, your vision for the culture. So your content should lead with what you bring, not what your company offers. Producers can get the company anywhere. They can only get you from you. [00:03:40] Move 3: Lead With Team Vision There are three altitudes of vision. Me vision is what you get. Corporate vision is what the company gets. Team vision is what a producer gets by being part of what you're building. Corporate vision is what makes you sound like a press release nobody feels. Team vision, the specific future they get to be part of, is the one that moves people. So when you cast vision on social, cast it at that altitude, the one that answers the only question they're asking, which is what's in it for me. [00:04:15] Move 4: Use Social ID So You Never Run Dry Leaders constantly tell me they have nothing to post, and then they turn around and lead all day long. The framework I coach is Social ID. ID stands for identify and document. Identify what you're already doing as a leader and document it. The one-on-one you just had, the problem you solved this morning, the recruiting conversation that taught you something. You're not inventing content out of thin air and you're not performing, you're just capturing the leadership you're already living. Do that, and you'll never run out of material again. [00:04:55] Move 5: Move From Transactional to Transformational Most producer content is transactional. Closings, numbers, rate updates. It says look what I did. Transformational content says here's what I believe, here's where we're going, here's what I'm learning as a leader. That's the content that builds connection instead of just racking up views. And then you keep showing up, because visibility precedes relevancy. The producers you want will often watch you quietly for months before they ever say a word. Those likes today aren't the point. You're posting for the recruit who's watching right now and hasn't said a word yet. [00:05:42] Why It Works Producers decide who to follow based on who they want to become, and a corporate mission statement gives them nothing to reach for. A clear vision led by a real leader, told through real moments, gives them a future they can see themselves inside. Social ID works because authenticity beats polish every time, and the truest, most magnetic content you have is the leadership you're already doing every single day. Consistency works because trust isn't built in one viral post, it's built over months. The leader who shows up week after week becomes familiar, and over time that familiarity turns into trust, and trust is what finally makes a producer reach out. Winning the algorithm was never the point. The point is being the leader who's already in their feed, showing up with value long before they ever need to make a move. [00:06:53] Your Small Win Tonight Think back over the last two days of leading and write down one moment worth documenting, a conversation, a decision, a problem you solved, something you learned. That one moment is a post, and finding it is your win, because it proves you'll never run out of things to say. [00:07:14] Three Bigger Moves This Week Rewrite your next post so it speaks to a producer you want to recruit instead of a customer you want to close, so your content finally starts attracting the right people. Make one post that leads with your vision and your value as a leader, not your company's platform, so you stand out in that sea of sameness. Then commit to a simple posting rhythm you can hold, because consistency is what turns your page into a recruiting engine, and it teaches your whole team that showing up is a discipline, not a mood. Key Takeaways The producers you want are already watching you online, deciding whether you're a leader worth following. Most leaders post to the people they close, not the people they want to lead. Stop posting like a producer and start posting like a leader. You're not a mortgage pro who posts now and then. You're a media company that happens to do mortgages. The leader is the product, the company is not. Producers can get the company anywhere, they can only get you from you. Cast team vision, the future a producer gets by joining you. Corporate vision is the press release nobody feels. Social ID means identify and document. Capture the leadership you're already living and you'll never run out of material. Visibility precedes relevancy. You're posting for the recruit watching quietly right now who hasn't said a word yet. If you want help turning your social presence into a vision that recruits, reach out. Visit bookrichardnow.com and grab time on my calendar, and I'd be glad to think it through with you.

And I decided to talk about this topic today partly because once I made the decision to tackle it, the enemy has been having a field day in mine.Yesterday I came home from church and wrote in my journal — I will wait on you, God. I will trust you, God. You are my joy, my strength, my deliverer. By evening I was trying to take control of all of my life and everyone else's life, fixing everyone's problems. I was not trusting. I was not waiting. It was all going on up here. And today I had to apologize. I had to confess my sin of trying to control someone. I wrote in a text — I'm sorry for not being patient. I'm sorry for not being kind. I'm sorry for being proud. Will you forgive me?Waiting on God is really hard. It requires patience, self-control, and trust and faith in God.What Scripture Says About the MindPsalm 25:3 says no one who waits on the Lord will be put to shame. That word wait also means trust and hope. No one who trusts in the Lord, no one who hopes in the Lord, will ever be disgraced. When we take it off of us and give it to God and put our trust and faith in Him — that is when we can move forward.Isaiah 40:31 says but those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles. They will run and not be weary. They will walk and not faint. That word wait again — those who wait on the Lord, who hope in the Lord, who trust in the Lord.Craig Groeschel and Winning the War of the MindDuring the Texas blizzard in February, I went online to watch church. I came across Craig Groeschel beginning a four-part series on winning the war of the mind. I want to share a few things he shared that Sunday and show how I've been applying them as a mom, a grandma, and in helping kids with their education.He makes this statement — most of life's battles are won or lost in the mind. So are we waiting on God or are we taking things into our own hands? Taking things into our own hands means saying — I can control my life. I can do better. It's all on me. That's wrong.Are you having a worried attitude or a peaceful attitude? If we're worried, we have fear. If we have peace, we're casting all our cares on God — casting all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you. Do we have a negative mindset or a positive mindset? A negative mindset means we're critical and complaining. A positive mindset means we have faith in Jesus, we are thankful.And here's the key thought — what comes into your mind comes out in your life. In your words. In your actions. What are you filling your mind with? That's what's going to come out in your life.Your life is always moving in the direction of your strongest thoughts. Let me repeat that. Your life is moving in the direction of your strongest thoughts. What are those strong thoughts pushing you toward?Renewing Your Mind With TruthRomans 12:2 says do not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is — His good, perfect, and pleasing will.Ephesians 4:23 says let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God — truly righteous and holy. I pray this verse almost every day. I say — Holy Spirit, renew my thoughts, attitudes, and emotions. Renew our families.And 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 tells us how we fight these battles in our mind. For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take every thought captive to make it obedient to Christ.We don't fight with the world's weapons. We fight with God's weapons — the Holy Spirit, prayer, and truth.Two Steps for Overcoming Negative ThoughtsStep one — identify the biggest stronghold. What is holding you down? What is churning in your head? Name it. When we think a negative thought, there is a chemical release in the brain — a dopamine release — that gives a temporary high and then pulls us back down. And every time we think that negative thought, it becomes easier to think it again. Dr. Caroline Leaf is an expert in neuroplasticity and talks about this very idea — taking our thoughts and rewiring our minds so we think positively.So first, name the stronghold. What is it for you? Maybe you feel like a failure as a mom. Maybe you feel like your marriage isn't good enough. Maybe you compare yourself to other moms, other bloggers, other speakers.I'll be really honest — I struggle with comparing myself to other bloggers and authors and speakers. I see bloggers get book deals and I think — I guess I'm not as important. That is a stronghold. I am comparing myself and saying I'm not enough.I once spoke at a conference in a workshop at 5 p.m. — not a great time — and they had doubled up everything that evening. Zero people showed up to my session. I'm admitting this to you because it was humiliating. But I had to say — God, you took each person at that conference to the workshop where they needed to be, and this is just not the one they needed to hear. I had to humble myself.Step two — name the truth to demolish that stronghold. God says He has given us weapons to demolish strongholds, and one of those weapons is truth. You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.So instead of — I'm comparing myself to other bloggers and I'm not enough — speak the truth. I have been given everything I need for life and godliness. I don't need more. God gives me all I need. God is using me in a special way with moms and wives. He uses me when I trust Him. I walk by faith, not by sight.Say that truth every morning when you get up. Speak truth to yourself. That is godly self-care.Tim Tebow said it this way — when I wish I were like someone else, I'm really being mad at God. He didn't make me like that person. He made me. And when I compare myself and wish I were different, I'm not accepting who God made me. He has given us gifts and callings, and we need to walk in those.The truth is Jesus Christ. Name the stronghold. Name the truth. And the truth will set you free.I'll put a link in the comments to Craig Groeschel's book on the mind, as well as Dr. Caroline Leaf's book — both deal with retraining our minds and getting our thoughts focused in the right direction. It takes some work, but it is absolutely possible.Leave a comment and let me know your thoughts, your questions, or your favorite springtime activity.
