EP959 - Alex Brockway on running AI agents like a workforce

In this episode of Chasing the Insights, I talk to Alex Brockway. Alex talks to us about running AI agents like a workforce. Alex Brockway is the founder of AI Code That Works, where he teaches non-technical founders and operators how to ship real, production software with AI. A lawyer by trade — not an engineer — Alex builds live SaaS products used by real businesses, and is currently building RevAStack in public: a platform that puts your brand on autopilot, producing and publishing your content end-to-end — video, images, posts, ads, and email — from one automated production system. It's being built entirely by teams of AI agents that write, review, and test code around the clock. His core message: AI doesn't need you to be technical. It needs you to have a method. He teaches that method — proven on his own shipped products first — through his community, courses, and build-in-public content.

EP957 - Janylène Turcotte on entrepreneurs exiting and search for identities

In this episode of Chasing the Insights, I talk to Janylène Turcotte. Janylène talks to us about entrepreneurs exiting and search for identities. Janylène Turcotte spent 25 years as a senior HR executive, the last stretch at Deloitte. She served as an integrator on several deals — inside the due diligence, close to the moment a business changes hands — guiding people and organizations through transition and transformation. Then her own role ended — not on her terms. She walked out of that meeting feeling like she'd left a coat at the door. Over the emptying weeks that followed, she realized how much of who she thought she was had been the coat. The title. The brand. The identity she'd worn without noticing. She knows first-hand the particular silence of a calendar that suddenly clears. That's the terrain she now walks with founders who are exiting their business. Because when an entrepreneur sells the company they built, they're surrounded by people — finance, tax, lawyers, advisors — and every one of them has a stake in the outcome. Nobody in that room is there simply for them. Nobody's only job is to help them digest what it means to hand over the thing that's carried their identity for years — or to answer the question that lands the morning after the deal closes: who am I now, and what was all of this for? Today Janylène is the founder of Hypnocoach, a clinical hypnotherapist and ICF-certified coach (ACC) with more than 1,500 sessions behind her. Trained in Rapid Transformational Therapy under Marisa Peer, she works underneath the strategy — with the beliefs and the meaning no spreadsheet in the process ever touches. Her method, Peel Back, Rewire, Rise, is built for exactly this: the identity shift a successful exit sets off, and the reinvention that has to follow it. She's practical, not mystical. Warm, and direct. She earned a merit scholarship at HEC on her academic results and cut her teeth selling encyclopedias door to door — rigour and hustle in equal measure, and little patience for fluffy personal-development promises. For the founder walking toward the exit, she's the one person in the process with no skin in the game, whose only job is to be there for them.

EP956 - Dr. Theresa Pantanella on Marketing Misdiagnosis and Why Treating Symptoms Is Killing Your Business

In this episode of Chasing the Insights, I talk to Dr. Theresa Pantanella. Dr. Theresa talks to us about Marketing Misdiagnosis: Why Treating Symptoms Is Killing Your Business (And the Systemic Cure). Dr. Theresa Pantanella is Your Doctor of Marketing. She spent 24 years in healthcare as a doctoral-level occupational therapist, building a seven-clinic outpatient business in South Florida on a single service and scaling it into high six figures through pure operational systemization. Today, she applies that exact same diagnostic rigor to business growth. Where most marketers treat surface-level symptoms, Theresa diagnoses the hidden operational breakdowns in a business's marketing and builds the AI-powered systems that permanently fix them. Her frameworks have generated over $13 million in revenue for clients ranging from doctoral experts to seven-figure enterprises. She is the co-host of the No BS AI Summit, former president of NAWBO Fort Lauderdale, and her absolute best strategic breakthroughs still arrive mid-ocean swim, fueled by far too much coffee.

EP955 - Aaron Hendon on how mindfulness and meditation are undervalued as the easiest path to performance, success, and happiness

In this episode of Chasing the Insights, I talk to Aaron Hendon. Aaron talks to us about how mindfulness and meditation are undervalued as the easiest path to performance, success, and happiness. Aaron Hendon is a keynote speaker, bestselling author, and real estate veteran turned mindfulness provocateur who has made it his mission to help people stop outsourcing their sanity to the market, their inbox, or their own over-caffeinated anxiety. As the creator of The Mindful CEO and author of How to Live a Grateful Life in a Fckd Up World, Aaron blends 13 years of real estate experience with four decades of meditation and ontological leadership training to teach people how to sell more, lead better, and live saner—not through hacks or hustle porn, but through awareness, agency, and actual practice. After moving to Seattle and building a top-producing real estate business—where his team consistently sold homes for 3–5% more than average and 27% faster—Aaron discovered a truth most sales pros conveniently ignore: productivity doesn't come from grinding harder; it comes from learning how not to fall apart. He spent years studying with mindfulness teachers, training hundreds of agents, and leading transformational courses before developing a practical, no-BS methodology that helps high-performing professionals operate with more clarity and less chaos. Today, Aaron teaches leaders and sales organizations how to trade burnout for presence, and how to build businesses that don't require sacrificing their nervous systems. His clients describe him as equal parts Zen monk, Jewish dad, and high-performance coach—someone who can quote Alan Watts, call out your self-sabotage, and still get your deal closed by Friday. Through his programs—including From Hustle to Flow: Sell More by Stressing Less and the Mindful CEO Mastermind—Aaron provides real-world tools grounded in neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and contemplative practice. His work has helped agents 2–3x their production, dramatically reduce stress, and reconnect with the purpose that got them into business in the first place. When he's not teaching, Aaron is writing, running mindfulness cohorts, leading gratitude trainings, and helping teams experience the kind of grounded presence that makes better decisions, better leaders, and—yes—better lives. His philosophy is simple: the world may be a mess, but your mind doesn't have to be. Aaron lives on Vashon Island with his wife Kael, loves good bagels, and is committed to helping people experience genuine agency, one breath at a time.
