In this thought-provoking episode of Bulletproof Cyber, Dr. Eric Cole takes you on a journey that goes far beyond firewalls and encryption. He opens with a powerful truth: words create your reality—and the way you speak to yourself can shape the course of your life and career. From his personal rituals of choosing four guiding words (year, month, week, and day) to the launch of Secure Anchor’s new "word shirts," Dr. Cole dives into the transformative power of language and self-respect.
But the episode doesn’t stop at mindset. Dr. Cole delivers a compelling warning about the rapid rise of AI and quantum computing, reminding listeners that being human is a competitive advantage—if we choose to embrace it. He challenges the way we’ve normalized AI interactions in business, urging cybersecurity leaders to treat people like people and stop devaluing emotional intelligence in favor of raw data.
This episode is a wake-up call to take back your voice, build respect into everything you do, and stay bulletproof in both your mindset and your cyber strategy. You don’t want to miss this one.
