  • Differentiating through unique value
  • Leveraging platforms for connection


Lightbulb Moments:

  • Artificial intelligence offers immense potential for efficiency and learning, but adopting it responsibly means staying cautious of risks like misinformation and deepfakes.
  • AI tools and thoughtful systems can distill vast information into usable insights, helping professionals apply lessons more effectively and with greater impact.
  • Success comes from finding a groove, standing out with a distinctive approach, and filling knowledge gaps rather than following the crowd.
  • Podcasting and LinkedIn are not only vehicles for sharing ideas but also powerful tools for networking, relationship-building, and business development.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
