Life is busy and there's just so many things to remember. What tools do you use to help you keep on top of ALL the things?
It's easy to react or respond quickly to messages and the like. It's better to do that mindfully. That's why I try to Practice The Pause.
AI features are being quietly switched on inside the tools you already use for business - and most owners have no idea. From Microsoft Copilot to Google Gemini and Zoom AI Companion, these features are enabled by default, accessing your emails, documents and meetings without you making a conscious decision about it.
In this episode, Charly covers:
✅ Why tech companies enable AI features by default - and what that means for your data
✅ How AI tools expand your attack surface by accessing emails, calls and documents
✅ The hidden risk of shadow AI - employees using AI tools the business does not know about
✅ A step-by-step approach to auditing your apps, phone permissions and privacy settings
✅ Why default AI privacy settings are not configured with your security as the priority
Make this a regular check - at least once a quarter - because settings can reset with every update.

Have you ever sent an email that simply vanished? Your customer says they never received it, and it is not even in their spam folder. The problem might not be your subject line or content; it could be your email reputation being checked before anyone even sees your message.
In this episode, Charly covers:
✅What email reputation actually means and how mail providers track it
✅The key signals affecting your reputation: bounces, spam complaints, engagement, and sending patterns
✅Why authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) is the foundation of good deliverability
✅How purchased lists and scraped contacts can destroy your sender reputation
✅Five essential practices to maintain a healthy email reputation

Are you obsessing over your follower count while missing the metric that actually drives revenue? Social platforms are designed to make you chase numbers, but for business owners, engagement and trust matter far more than audience size.
In this episode, Charly covers:
✅Why follower counts are a vanity metric and what to measure instead
✅How a small, engaged audience outperforms a large, passive one for sponsors and sales
✅The real cost of chasing followers — time, money, and missed opportunities
✅Why your email list is the only audience you actually own
✅How to shift from audience acquisition to serving the people already in your world
Stop building on rented land. Focus on the people who have already chosen you, and let trust do the heavy lifting.
