What if the reason you're not moving forward has nothing to do with what you know or what you've done, but with who you are being?A moment from the podcast archive that I felt deserved to be heard again.Today, my guest Dr Ryan Gottfredson, Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author and leading expert on mindsets and vertical development, shares one of the most clarifying distinctions I have ever heard in personal development: the difference between your doing side and your being side, and why focusing on the wrong one keeps so many high achievers permanently stuck.Press play to discover why the next degree, certificate or course might not be what you need, and what to focus on instead.˚VALUABLE RESOURCES:Listen to the full conversation with Dr Ryan Gottfredson in episode #512:https://personaldevelopmentmasterypodcast.com/512˚Coaching with Agi: https://personaldevelopmentmasterypodcast.com/mentor˚

Stephen Macedo and Frances Lee are both professors of politics at Princeton. Together they wrote "In Covid's Wake: How Our Politics Failed Us" (Princeton University Press), named one of the best books of 2025 by The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, and The Economist, and featured on The New York Times' "The Daily" and PBS NewsHour. The book asks a question few want to spend time with: how did we actually handle the pandemic — and what would we do differently next time? We invited Stephen and Frances on Crazy Good Turns not to relitigate COVID or assign blame, but to look back honestly so that when the next crisis comes, we do a little better. Macedo is a political theorist who has written widely on constitutional law, ethics, and public policy; Lee is a leading scholar of Congress and political polarization. In this episode, we discuss: [04:53] The Book Almost No One Asked For: Why Lee wasn't sure anyone would want to read In Covid's Wake — and why she felt it needed to exist anyway. [07:34] Why We Look Away (This Wasn't The First Time): On the strange quiet that settled after the pandemic — and the echo of 1918, when the country did much the same thing following the Spanish flu. [14:47] No Commission, No Reckoning: We studied 9/11 and the Challenger. We never launched that kind of honest look back at COVID — and Lee explores why. [17:23] Who Suffered the Most: How a response framed as protecting the vulnerable, they argue, so often landed hardest on essential workers, small businesses, and our kids. [26:57] The Case for a "Team B" in Every Crisis: Macedo on what he calls an "effortful pause" — room for dissent, and a wider table than just the experts who already agree. [38:06] Reasons for Hope: Why Macedo thinks we will do better next time, and why he's bullish on students who were in junior high in 2020.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. If Israel truly implements the 15-point plan proposed by US President Donald Trump's Board of Peace for Gaza -- ostensibly aimed at the disarmament of the Hamas terror group that staged the October 7, 2023, onslaught on southern Israel -- then Israel is required to pull back to the "Yellow Line" that divides the Strip between IDF and Hamas control. On today's episode, Magid asks: Which Yellow Line — the original one that left Israel in control of 53% of the Strip, or the newer one that gave Israel control of 60% to 70% of the territory? He's received several answers in a recent reporting trip to Washington, DC. In a Hollywood-esque moment, during a recent flight from Turkey to the United Kingdom following the G7 summit, US President Donald Trump was taken off Air Force One and transferred in a catering truck to a military plane. The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday that this ploy was triggered after Israel told the United States about the Iranian assassination threat. Magid gives the play-by-play and describes who was left on the original, decoy flight. The Israeli military on Tuesday denounced the “illegal, reprehensible and unacceptable” establishment of settler outposts inside Palestinian villages in the West Bank in recent days, but did not explain why it had not dismantled them or why, in a recent example, troops prayed with civilians rather than removing them from the area. Magid rolls out the situation at Qusra, south of Nablus, which is still playing out on Wednesday as senior military officials, including Central Command chief Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth, are meeting with the Palestinian family under siege. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Missy Tannen spent five years teaching third grade and a decade as a stay-at-home mom before she ever thought about starting a company. But when she couldn't find bedding that was high-quality, ethically sourced, and traceable, she and her husband Scott started Boll & Branch out of pure frustration. On this episode of She Pivots, Missy talks about betting the family's life savings on an idea, borrowing against their own house even while sales were taking off, and what it took to scale from a garage operation to a 200-person company without losing what made it different in the first place. She's brutally honest about the mess behind the milestones (a full batch of ivory sheets that came out green!) and about running a family business—that’s now worth over $250 million—with her husband while raising their kids.

Are you managing your team just for today's results, or are you investing in their long term career growth? The most effective leaders know how to do both by adopting a mentor mindset. In this episode of Boss Better Now, Joe Mull continues his special summer series on the accountability tightrope. Listen in as he breaks down part three of the framework, revealing how to perfectly balance high performance standards with high employee support. Many managers struggle with onboarding and feedback, often resorting to assigning grunt work or trying to prevent every mistake. Joe shares a powerful example of what a perfect first day conversation looks like to set the stage for success. He details exactly how to shift into a mentor mindset where you assign real work of consequence, reframe mistakes as growth, and build deep employee commitment through earned prestige. What to Expect in This Episode: What is the Accountability Tightrope?: Joe recaps the core challenge of balancing high standards with supportive workplace relationships. The Perfect First Day Conversation: How to script a welcome message that builds trust and sets a standard of excellence right from the start. Defining the Mentor Mindset at Work: Why the best managers see people for their potential and focus on long term career growth over daily tasks. Stop Giving New Hires Grunt Work: How assigning work of consequence builds skill, confidence, and early contribution. How to Reframe Mistakes and Failure: Why great leaders coach thinking and judgment instead of just handing out all the answers. The Script for Difficult Feedback: How to frame tough performance conversations around an employee's potential so they feel supported instead of attacked. Building Employee Commitment through Earned Prestige: The psychological building block that gives employees a sense of worth and turns a new hire into a highly committed team member.

In a fascinating new analysis, CNN's Harry Enten calculates that Donald Trump's net approval on the economy is 33 points underwater. That's a shocking 42-point swing from during the 2018 midterms, when Trump was in positive territory. On top of that, Enten notes that in the most recent CNN poll, Trump's net approval on inflation is 50 points underwater, and that this hasn't been rivaled by any other president. Meanwhile, Republican pollsters and strategists tell The Wall Street Journal that they fear that under Trump, the GOP has thrown away its traditional advantage on the economy. And they suggest time is running out to turn that around. We talked to New Republic senior editor Alex Shephard, who has been arguing well that Trump's unpopularity is the story of our politics. We discuss why the bottom fell out so quickly for Trump, what the punditry still gets wrong about 2024, and why Democrats won't make a big case that on the economy, their party tends to be far better than the GOP ever is.

The letters at the center of the Nancy Guthrie disappearance are public at last, and they raise more questions than the six months of silence that preceded them. Tony Brueski and retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke take on the listener mailbag for the case that has gripped the country since an 84-year-old mother vanished from her Tucson home.The first note promised her safe return for $4 million in Bitcoin and carried details from inside the house to prove itself. The second withdrew everything — no demand, no negotiation, just a claim that Nancy perished shortly after she was taken and a wish that her children find peace. Retired FBI agents told CBS News that people motivated by money don't abandon $4 million, and that one writer likely produced both letters. Meanwhile the sheriff's own words the day before the release, and a Wall Street Journal accounting of the investigation's early missteps, have listeners asking who exactly is in control of this case.From the daughter worried about her own mother living alone to the question of what the renewed search behind Nancy's home really means, these are the eight questions this case comes down to.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The burgers are so good that they're causing traffic jams. At least that's what's happening in Culver City, where the line of cars at spots like In-N-Out Burger spills beyond the parking lot and into the street. Now officials there are trying to ban new drive-thrus outright. These bans are not an entirely new phenomenon — San Luis Obispo banned drive-thrus back in 1982 — but they're getting newfound attention as recent pushes gain national attention. We'll look at California's role in the rise of fast food drive-thrus and examine whether the current moment could be the beginning of the end for a fast food staple.

Last week, 24-year-old Leopold Aschenbrenner — former FTX staffer, ex-OpenAI researcher, and author of the viral 165-page essay "Situational Awareness" — managed to lose roughly two-thirds of his $45 billion hedge fund in a matter of weeks. The margin calls arrived during his wedding weekend.In this video I break down how a trader with no professional experience raised billions from Silicon Valley, why his AI "hedge" wasn't a hedge at all, and how leverage plus a concentrated bet on artificial intelligence stocks turned a great-looking expected return into a catastrophic outcome. Along the way we look at the cultural gap between Silicon Valley and Wall Street, why Ken Griffin's Citadel ended up buying the collapsing portfolio in an overnight fire sale, and the maths of volatility drag — the reason a high expected return can still drag an investor's typical outcome straight into the ground.It's a story about leverage, risk management, expected versus median returns, and what happens when you go "full Kelly." Featuring reporting from the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Bloomberg, and the Financial Times, plus Victor Haghani's lessons from The Missing Billionaires.

Fidelity is one of the most powerful financial institutions in America, but the story of the family behind it has largely remained hidden. Justin Baer joins me to reveal how the Johnson dynasty built a $13 trillion empire, and how Abigail Johnson had the courage to reinvent it before the old business model became a relic.

Live with Tony Brueski and retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke. On the table: the ransom notes in the Nancy Guthrie case, released by the Pima County Sheriff's Department on July 31. Underneath them sits the question no family should ever face, whether to believe a letter that says their mother is gone.This session runs on listener submissions, and they don't hold back. The $4 million demand that simply vanished from the second note. The proof details, the white smart watch and the broken flood light, that put the writer inside that house. The apology and the wish for peace, which Robin can read like a case file. The sheriff who told CBS he had no note indicating death, twenty-four hours before releasing one, while a Wall Street Journal report questions his department's early moves. And the federal search teams back in the brush behind Nancy's own home.The chat carries this one. Whether you believe the notes are real, a hoax, or something in between, bring your reasoning — because the room will not agree, and that's exactly why this case needs a live hour.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

August 10, 2026; 4pm: Nicolle Wallace and friends unpack the generational shift Trump has caused in who voters trust to handle the economy more. Wall Street Journal reporting finds that voters trust Democrats more than Republicans on the economy as the war in Iran rages on, causing more inflation and higher gas prices. Later, Nicolle covers the lack of clarity on where things stand in negotiations with Iran as the Strait of Hormuz continues to stay closed.

Only 8% of people finish their yearly goals. At the same time, the percentage of people feeling a sense of meaning of purpose in their life is falling. These two numbers are connected: the more we struggle to accomplish meaningful projects, the less meaningful our lives might feel.

Less than three months remain before the crucial midterms will decide whether Democrats or Republicans will control the Senate. As the parties campaign hard across a range of issues, Americans can perhaps breathe a sigh of relief when it comes to one key domestic concern: crime. A new report shows a notable drop across large cities in the first half of this year, with homicides reaching their lowest level since at least 1900. The report notes this trend isn't evidence of the success or failure of any particular policy, and says it's likely the result of a range of factors. Steve Cohen is a Democratic congressman who sits on both the Judiciary and Intelligence House Committees. He joins the show to break it all down.  Also on today's show: Brad Setser, Fmr.

We explore a common paradox in this episode (and I'll be up front that this is one I've struggled with for most of my career) – and that is, being a likeable badass. How can we be both liked as a person and respected for our success? How do we get the recognition, negotiate for our value, and create opportunities without our peers or colleagues seeing us as cold, calculating or selfish? How do we create and leverage power and status as women, if we feel icky about the words power and status? I don't have the answers, friend, but I know someone who does. Alison Fragale is the author of Likeable Badass and the Mary Farley Ames Lee Distinguished Scholar of Organizational Behavior at the Kenan-Flagler Business School. Her work has been published in the most prestigious academic journals in her field, and is featured in prominent media outlets such as The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Financial Times, Boston Globe, and many more. A sought-after keynote speaker and trusted advisor, Alison was introduced to me by Adam Grant, and is here today to help us understand more about power, status, and likeability – and how those things impact our ability to get more of what we want. A loving reminder that whether or not you're a working professional, we're ALL negotiating for the things we want, for what matters most to us. And whether you're at work or in your personal relationships, your status matters. It's time for us to set aside those limiting mindsets because they aren't serving us or our people. You can be and become a likable badass. Thank you to our sponsors! Don't wait to teach your kids real-world money skills!

Co-parenting takes two people willing to show up. Susan Guthrie says that when only one parent is willing, it is one of the most common and most exhausting struggles she sees, and it is exactly the situation divorce parenting expert Christina McGhee helps families navigate.  Parenting even under the best of circumstances is challenging. Add in a co-parent who is uncooperative or high-conflict, and it becomes downright exhausting, leaving you feeling like you are constantly trying to protect your kids while managing someone who is not making it easy.  Christina tackles one of the toughest situations of all, co-parenting when there is no real co-parent on the other side, and shares her top tips for working through the feelings of hopelessness and exhaustion that come with it. Together, she and Susan talk through how to get to a place of being in control of yourself and your emotions, so you can stay grounded, set boundaries, keep your children out of the middle, and show up as an empowered, consistent, engaging, and confident parent no matter what your co-parent is doing. What You'll Learn  What Christina means when she says “When there's no “Co” in Co-parenting…” Instead of staying focused on fixing the co-parent, lean into your co-parenting values and work on yourself Radical acceptance: Adjust your expectations and accept things the way they are…for now. “It may not get easier, but how you manage it makes a difference.”  Ask yourself: How is your response going to impact your children? Talk about the problem, not the person. “Making the other parent look small will never make you look big.” Don't forget about the power of one!  Episode 5 of 8 in the Divorce & Beyond Summer Essentials Series.

The millions of Americans living with mental illness—as well as people dealing with life's everyday stresses—often struggle to see a therapist when they need one. That's a big reason why many people have started turning to AI tools such as ChatGPT for emotional support. But as a number of high-profile lawsuits show, that can sometimes lead to devastating outcomes. Companies creating AI for mental health say they can do better. What's News host Alex Ossola and WSJ audio producer Pierre Bienaimé explore the growing field of these purpose-built tools, and how people are already using them, in Part 1 of our special series “The AI Therapist.” Further Reading: Chatbots Are Replacing Therapists With Little Scientific Evidence Behind Them Teens Seek Mental-Health Help From Chatbots.

What if breaking the seven figure ceiling has less to do with working harder and more to do with completely changing how your practice grows? Many clinic owners hit a point where more patients, longer hours, and more personal effort simply create more exhaustion. In this episode, Dr. Lauryn sits down with Allison Maslan to explore what actually has to change when your own capacity becomes the bottleneck.They unpack scalable business models that can help practice owners grow without trading more time for money, including building a team of providers, creating recurring revenue, and acquiring other practices. Allison also explains why owners often wait too long to hire support, how to develop employees into strategic thinkers instead of task takers, why creativity matters in scaling, and how mindset and leadership must evolve alongside your business.Key TakeawaysScaling requires leverage, not simply more volume. If your growth plan is based entirely on seeing more patients yourself, your personal capacity eventually becomes the ceiling of the business.Build a team that multiplies the business. Hiring support earlier, empowering employees to think strategically, and developing other providers allows the practice to grow beyond what the owner can personally produce.Look beyond the traditional chiropractic business model. Memberships, recurring revenue, ancillary services, multiple locations, and practice acquisitions can create new paths to growth without requiring the owner to work more hours.Your leadership and mindset must scale too. Breaking through a revenue plateau requires strategic execution, bigger thinking, creativity, delegation, and a willingness to stop controlling every part of the business yourself.Guest BioAllison Maslan is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author, CEO of Pinnacle Global Network, and business scaling mentor who has built ten successful companies over more than four decades. Through Pinnacle Global Network, she works with CEOs and leadership teams to break through growth plateaus and build companies that can thrive without depending entirely on their founders. She is the author of Scale or Fail and creator of the SCALEit Method, which combines strategic planning, leadership, team development, marketing, sales, cash flow, and mindset to help entrepreneurs multiply their growth, impact, and freedom.Learn more about Allison, Pinnacle Global Network, and how to work with her and her team by visiting their website.Follow Allison on InstagramGet your free copy of Scale Or Fail, Allison's best selling book, by visiting here.

Podcast Episode Description "You are the leadership lid of your company. If you don't grow yourself, you will top out the growth of the company." Host Laurie Barkman sits down with Patrick Thean, co-founder of Rhythm Systems and author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller Rhythm and The Journey to CEO Success. Patrick started his career at Oracle, founded Medicis — a supply chain software company — in 1991, grew it to $25 million in sales in seven years while making the Inc. 500 at #51, and sold it at 32 feeling not victorious, but lost. He then survived the dot-com bust, sold his stake in a second company he no longer felt passionate about, and eventually discovered his true calling: helping CEOs avoid being blindsided by the things that destroy companies not because of bad strategy — but because of poor execution. Patrick shares the lessons that only come from living through it: cash flow, burnout, identity crisis, accountability, self-awareness, and what it really takes to build a business that can thrive without you.   Key Insights Cash is oxygen — and revenue without collection is just a number. Patrick never missed payroll across all the companies he ran. The reason: he learned early that profit on paper means nothing if you haven't collected. Sales go up, profitability goes up, but if cash doesn't follow, the business dies. Cash is king — not revenue. A burnt-out founder CEO is not good for anyone. Patrick burned the candle at both ends and in the middle — and thought it was a badge of honor. It wasn't. He initially believed taking care of himself was selfish. The reframe: you are the leadership lid of your company. If you don't grow yourself, you cap the company's growth. Putting your oxygen mask on first isn't selfish — it's strategy. Most companies don't fail because of bad strategy. They fail because of poor execution. Strategy is fun — you can sit in a room and come up with ideas all day. The hard work hasn't started yet. Patrick's niece wanted to be an Olympian at 12. She made it — after a decade of consistent daily commitment. The gap between decision and getting it done is commitment. And most organizations can't close that gap. Accountability is about helping someone succeed — not punishing them for failing. Most leaders define accountability as consequences after the fact. Patrick reframes it: accountability starts at the beginning, helping the person understand what they need to do to succeed. If you're whacking someone on the head, it's already too late. Both parties must share the same philosophy — otherwise one sees coaching, the other sees micromanagement. The fish rots from the head — and that means you. When Patrick works with a struggling CEO, the first question he asks is: what part in this movie did you play? Not to assign blame — but to open the possibility that the leader is part of the problem. The leaders who grow the fastest are the ones willing to look in the mirror before they look at their team. Build a business that can run without you — before someone forces you to. Patrick's friend sold his company with one specific request: he didn't want to stay after the transaction closed. He got his wish — because he had trained a strong president who could run everything. The buyer didn't need him from day one. That's the goal. Build the machine, then make yourself optional.     Chapters: 00:04 Introduction of Patrick Thean 01:28 Patrick's Background — From Cornell to Oracle 02:01 Early Career Lessons at Oracle 02:56 Founding Medicis: Zero to $25M in 7 Years 03:22 Cash Is King — The Lesson Every Founder Learns Too Late 05:08 Selling Medicis at 32 — And What It Actually Felt Like 07:29 Burnout, Self-Care, and the Oxygen Mask Principle 10:18 Identity After the Exit — "I Don't Know If I Can Program Anymore" 12:53 The Dot-Com Company: Saving the Child You Don't Love 14:32 The Question That Changed Everything: What Do You LIKE To Do? 16:05 Why Transitions Are Hard Even When They're Positive 19:33 Execution vs. Strategy: Why Most Companies Fail 20:08 The Olympian Analogy — What Real Commitment Looks Like 23:09 Accountability: Helping People Succeed, Not Punishing Failure 25:27 The Fish Rots From the Head — And That Means You 25:53 What Part of the Movie Did You Play? 28:03 Do Most Leaders Have Self-Awareness? 29:22 Questions Every CEO Should Ask Themselves Regularly 32:41 The One Lesson for Founders Five Years From Transition 34:57 Patrick's Legacy: Helping Entrepreneurs Make Better Decisions 36:41 Books, Resources, and How to Connect with Patrick Thean   Is your business truly ready—and are you?
