3 Cybersecurity & Business Lessons from CEO Ephraim Ebstein of Fit Solutions: 1. Hiring is a security issue. A core values presentation filters out the wrong people — fast. Know who you're letting in. 2. IT should serve the business. If your IT team doesn't know where revenue comes from, you have a leadership problem. 3. Manage up. Don't wait to be asked. Deliver the right information proactively — to your team and your clients. --- Ephraim Ebstein is the Founder and CEO of FIT Solutions, a managed IT and cybersecurity company he built with a focus on people, accountability,...

My massage therapist asked me what changed. I told her I'd just seen a shamanic medium. I'd known about Lori Lipten for almost 20 years before I finally booked a session. The day after my first one, she said my back felt like a kid's, no knots anywhere. I told her my dad had come through and apologized for something, and I let it go. On today's episode of Coffee with Jon, Lori Lipten talks about her journey to becoming, and being, a shamanic medium. 3 highlights: 1. Lori was on the treadmill when she felt an angel touch her forehead and say the name ""Thomas,"" a boy who'd passed away. She...

Here are 3 highlights from my talk with Travis D. Hahler - Sr. Director of Global Strategy and Transformation at Salesforce and founder of The Neurological Nomad. 1. Resistance isn't rebellion, it's biology.When people resist change, it's not defiance, it's neurology. Stop asking "how do I overcome resistant people." Start asking "what do they need." 2. The CRM problem is everywhere.People don't refuse new tools. They use them at the bare minimum while keeping the old way on the side as their real source of truth. That's silent resistance, not loud objection. 3. Cadence beats content.A...

Mark Rampolla built ZICO, sold it to Coca-Cola, and bought it back. Here are 5 highlights from our talk: 1. It's an inside job. The difference between those who succeed and those who don't is whether they do the inner work. 2. Know your zone of genius. Double down on what you're great at and build people around you who cover the rest. 3. Become a feedback junkie. Ask after every meeting. Learn to love what you hear. 4. Check your energy before every week. Energy up, energy down, or neutral. That simple. 5. Write down the story you're telling yourself. That's where change begins. ...

Cara Lash left a coveted consulting job at PWC. No safety net. No guarantee. Just a belief that she was meant to build something. Here are three highlights from our Coffee with Jon conversation: 1. Do it scared. Don't wait until you're ready. You won't be. 2. Passion isn't enough. Be good at it too. When passion and talent align, that's the sweet spot. 3. Start every day with the thing you least want to do. What's the one task your dreading most? Do that first. The rest of the day gets easier. --- Cara’s love for the outdoors started long before her career did. After college, she jumped...

Finding a therapist shouldn't feel like a second job. But for millions of Americans, it does. Sandeep Acharya saw the broken system and built Octave Health to fix it. Here are three takeaway's from our Coffee with Jon conversation: 1. Solve the friction first. Therapists couldn't take insurance easily. Patients couldn't find who was available. Sandeep didn't pick one problem — he solved both. Remove the friction and people show up. 2. Simple is hard. Do it anyway. It took five years of data and testing to make their platform truly simple. Most businesses give up and add complexity. The...

What if one of the most important skills we can teach isn't academics—but curiosity, kindness, and how to get back to center?

Curiosity is a superpower. The best learning starts with questions. 2. Life skills matter as much as academics. Kindness, communication, and emotional intelligence are foundational skills. 3.

3 Takeaways from my conversation with Chris McShanag, CEO of Virtual Teammate: 1. Every org chart needs a VA today. Stop paying $100/hour talent to do $10/hour work. Free them up to do higher value work. 2. Clarity drives results — not geography. A VA in the Philippines or Latin America performs when expectations and outcomes are crystal clear. That's a leadership issue, not a location issue. 3. Start with one. Scale from there. Most clients add a VA once they see it work. Begin where the pain is greatest. --- Chris McShanag has helped more than 2,500 talented virtual professionals find...
info_outlineEveryone is tired.
But not everyone is resting.
3 takeaways from my conversation with CEO Justin Hai on stress, sleep, and performance:
1. Protect your sleep like it’s your business.
If you’re not sleeping, you’re not recovering, thinking clearly, or performing at your best.
2. Put the phone down.
Every buzz keeps your body in stress mode.
Step away → think better → respond smarter.
3. Small resets beat constant grind.
A 15-minute walk without your phone can change your entire day.
Most people don’t need more time.
They need better recovery.
THINK BIG!
