What lessons can other professionals learn from your career comeback about turning nontraditional paths into leadership advantages? * Shoott scaled from under $1M to $10M+ in revenue while staying lean and remote.

How can founders and operators turn flexibility into a competitive advantage in today’s economy? Tip:
 Don’t underestimate the power of adaptability. Whether you’re returning to work after a break or scaling through uncertainty, the ability to learn fast, test often, and lead with empathy is what allows teams and businesses to thrive. Jennifer Yeh leads operations, tech systems, and logistical execution for a rapidly scaling photography startup as Co‑Founder & COO of Shoott.

Kristopher Goins, CEO of Foreman Technologies, Inc., a robotics and AI company building safer, smarter tools for high-risk industries like construction, energy, and marine joins Enterprise Radio.
Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Kristopher Goins discuss the following:

* Foreman’s mission is “protecting workers first, then automating the rest.” What does that look like on a real jobsite, and how can other companies adopt a similar safety-first mindset when rolling out technology?
* You’ve nearly doubled gross margins since taking over as CEO. What lessons can other leaders take from your approach to balancing innovation, operations, and profitability?
* Many contractors are skeptical of robotics and AI. What strategies have you found effective for building trust with traditional, relationship-driven industries, and what advice would you give to others selling disruptive tech to blue-collar sectors?
* Adam and Charlie are designed not to replace workers, but to empower them. What are some practical ways leaders can introduce new technology without alienating skilled labor?
* You’ve led teams across law enforcement, cybersecurity, and now industrial robotics. What leadership habits from those diverse experiences can help business owners build resilience and adaptability in today’s volatile environment?

Summary:  
At the end of the day, technology only matters if it keeps people safe and makes their work more valuable. Whether you’re in construction, tech, or services, lead with protection, not disruption, and you’ll build trust that lasts.

Kristopher Goins is the CEO of Foreman Technologies, Inc., a robotics and AI company focused on building safer, smarter jobsite tools. Since joining in 2024, he has led the company through a period of accelerated growth, managing $10M in investment, raising gross margins from 19% to 42%, and expanding into AI-powered operator safety systems, intelligent inspection tools, and advanced defect detection inspection.
With a background in cybersecurity (CISSP) and legal governance (M. Jur.), Kristopher brings rigorous systems thinking to Foreman deployments. He is behind Adam, the  company’s vision science-driven safety system that identifies structural flaws, supports OSHA compliance, and reduces costly rework through AI-powered defect detection.
His leadership belief is that technology should first protect people, then improve productivity.

Julie Johnson, Financial Advisor, CDFA®, Financial Literacy Educator joins Enterprise Radio. Julie shares three key must-knows for 2026 – empowering entrepreneurs at any level of financial growth to create a sustainable path to financial security and success.
Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Julie Johnson discuss the following:

* Not to generalize, but there is a perception that entrepreneurs are risk takers and leap makers – but not necessarily financially prudent individuals are money savers.  Have you found this to be your experience – and why or why not is this true?
* For early stage entrepreneurs, money can be a struggle.  Is it better to wait to start a retirement and rainy day fund, or is it possible to start with little to no discretionary money?
* Are there are any saving tools or retirement saving strategies that work exceptionally well for entrepreneurs?
* I see from your background that you really focus on teaching financial literacy.  Can you tell me more about why this is a priority for you?
* For entrepreneurs that didn’t start saving early in life, is there anything they can do to “catch up” for retirement and safety net funds?


Julie Johnson has been a financial advisor for over 20 years.   When she found the opportunity to become a financial advisor on the heels of a financially-devastating divorce, she found her calling.  One thing she did not learn as a teenager and young adult was how money really works, and she discovered that very few others learned about it either! Learning, and then teaching, the things about money that Wall Street doesn’t want us to know became her mission.
Julie is a CDFA® Professional (Certified Divorce Financial Analyst) and is the Oregon Director of the Second Saturday Divorce Education Program, sponsored by The Women’s Institute for Financial Education (WIFE.org), the oldest non-profit organization dedicated to providing financial education to women.
Her greatest excitement is being able to bring education and financial products and services, once available only to the wealthy, to everyone, no matter their current financial situation; it’s a crusade that inspires Julie, each and every day, to pursue her vision of serving those who trust her to help them with their finances.
When she’s not talking about financial literacy or serving her clients, you can find her enjoying the great outdoors, spending time with friends and family (especially her amazing 99-year-old father and her 4-legged family members!) and restoring an historic cabin in the Mt. Hood National forest.

What are the first three steps you recommend for business leaders to silence that self-doubt and own their place at the table? * 
You argue that traits like impatience and aggressiveness can be strategic assets.

Over the years, she has advised presidents, prime ministers, and senior officials around the world—working on high-stakes political campaigns and negotiations across Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and beyond.

She combines this real-world geopolitical expertise with a no-nonsense mindset philosophy—helping leaders and entrepreneurs silence self-doubt, harness their inner strengths, and demand more out of life and business.
