The loudest voices promise easy money; the real builders talk about gates you forgot to latch, early alarms, and math you can check. We sit down with Aaron Chapman, a former ranch hand and underground miner turned EVP and author, to unpack how real estate investors actually create durable wealth without getting played by hype.Aaron breaks down why “cheapest” is often the costliest mistake, and how skilled operators and smart lending choices change outcomes when markets turn. We go deep on the compounding advantages of 30-year fixed debt: stable payments, rising rents, steady appreciation, amortization, and the sneaky tailwind of inflation. From the Taco Bell index to a one-ounce gold lesson, he shows how a $200K property with 20 percent down can outperform the flashier plays that dominated from 2019 to 2023. If you've been tempted by syndications promising double-digit returns, you'll hear the risks, red flags, and the case for controlling the asset you own.Beyond the numbers, we dig into the habits that separate winners from wishers: get up before the day kicks you, build your foundation before you buy, and choose prevention over cure. Aaron shares the comeback from a life-altering motorcycle crash, the client who found a path to retirement with ten rentals, and the faith that reframes adversity as training rather than punishment. His new book, Redneck Economics, captures these lessons with vivid illustrations and straight talk designed to move you from internalizing the noise to externalizing your plan.Looking to trade hype for hard edges and a plan you control? Press play, take notes, and then take the next step toward assets, discipline, and a future you can stand behind. If this conversation helps, subscribe, share it with someone who needs clarity over noise, and leave a review so more builders can find it.Join the What if it Did Work movement on FacebookGet the Book!www.omarmedrano.comwww.calendly.com/omarmedrano/15min
Noah Eubanks started painting curbs at 16 after seeing it on a YouTube video. Now he's 22, runs a 60-person fiber team, and just hit Golden Door while earning well over $200K.In this episode, Sam sits down with Noah to break down the problem most fiber reps don't want to hear: the product is so good that it's turning salespeople into order takers. Noah explains why that's costing reps thousands of dollars in missed deals and shares how he still pulls 10-13 sales in fiber vs fiber neighborhoods where everyone else struggles. He walks through his approach to cable bundlers (the doors most reps walk away from), using speed tests to create pain, and why customers aren't buying fiber—they're buying you.Noah also breaks down how he balances running a team with selling: 8:30am Starbucks meetings, split shift knocking, a personal assistant handling admin, and nightly check-in calls from the gym.Thank you for listening!

Why do some people feel “easy” to talk to—while others constantly frustrate us? In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with Marita Littauer Tedder to unpack how personality wiring shapes communication, conflict, and connection. This conversation is for anyone feeling stuck in recurring misunderstandings at home or work. Marita shares her simple color-based personality framework, how “good intentions” can still miss the mark, and the practical shift that changes relationships fastest: learning to identify someone's type and meet their emotional needs with maturity and care. About the Guest: Marita Littauer Tedder is the author of 20+ books, including the long-standing bestseller Wired That Way. She teaches how understanding personality differences can improve communication, reduce conflict, and strengthen relationships. Key Takeaways: Stop assuming care equals “communicating like me”—personality differences change what support looks like. Use personality awareness to separate “lazy or rude” labels from what's actually happening. Notice visible clues (voice, space, organization, body language) to identify someone's style. Reduce clashes by choosing strengths over weaknesses—growth is a decision. Improve one strained relationship by meeting the other person's emotional needs consistently. In teams, shared personality language can prevent misreading tone and intent.

What begins as a sincere search for meaning can quietly become control. In this episode, you'll hear how devotion can blur into self-erasure—and what it takes to find your voice again. This conversation is for anyone navigating a high-demand group, spiritual community, or power dynamic that feels “off.” Hosted by Sayan on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, journalist and chef Priya Hutner shares her journey from joining an ashram as a teen to leadership, awakening, and healing through writing, therapy, and rebuilding self-trust. About the Guest: Priya Hutner is a journalist and chef, and a former CEO of an ashram community. She authored the memoir Chasing Nirvana, reflecting on spirituality, control, and recovery. Key Takeaways: Notice “slow-burn” red flags: shaming, fear-based loyalty, and loss of agency. Ask: “Can I question, think critically, and leave without punishment?” Track incongruence between teachings and lived reality. Rebuild self-trust through supportive practices (therapy, writing, reflection). Separate genuine spirituality from systems that demand self-erasure. 5.

Many people believe trauma only counts if a child is physically harmed. This episode challenges that belief by exploring how witnessing domestic violence silently shapes the mind, emotions, and relationships for years to come. If you've ever felt guilt, fear, hypervigilance, or self-doubt without knowing why, this conversation offers clarity and relief. You'll learn how early exposure to fear and unpredictability forms hidden beliefs—and how naming those experiences can open the door to healing. About the Guest: Brian F. Martin is the Founder and CEO of the Childhood Domestic Violence Association. He is the author of Invincibleand executive producer of the award-winning documentary The Children Next Door. Key Takeaways: Witnessing domestic violence can be as damaging as direct physical abuse Children often internalize guilt for situations they never caused or controlled Naming childhood domestic violence is a critical first step toward healing Challenging false beliefs can reduce shame and emotional burden Safe conversations can transform trauma into resilience How to Connect With the Guest Website: https://cdv.org/ Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

If you keep second-guessing yourself, it may not be confusion—it may be a habit of outsourcing your inner knowing. This conversation helps you hear the difference between fear-driven noise and true inner guidance. This episode is for anyone stuck in overthinking, people-pleasing, or decision paralysis. Toni LaMotta shares practical ways to build self-trust, reframe “wrong decisions” as feedback, and use body-based awareness to move from fear into clarity and alignment. About the Guest: Toni LaMotta spent 60 years in religious life and has trained in six evidence-based methodologies over two decades. She helps people shift from external validation to deep self-trust through guidance, journaling, and somatic practices. Key Takeaways: Learn to spot the “barking dog” voice (fast, fear-based) vs. inner guidance (quiet, steady, body-knowing). Treat “wrong choices” as information—make a decision, learn, and adjust instead of freezing in anxiety. Reduce over-reliance on pros/cons lists and constant opinion-seeking to strengthen self-trust. Try the Fear-to-Faith somatic reset: name the fear, name the coping need, choose a higher-quality replacement. Practice presence by listening to your breath and body sensations to access clearer guidance. Make the process light and consistent—small daily practice builds reliable inner clarity.

In this deeply human and grounding conversation, guest host Sana sits down with Ryan Reichert to explore the concept of Protector Development—the inner armor we build to survive pain, trauma, and relentless life challenges. From childhood adversity and military service to addiction recovery, divorce, and rebuilding life from the ground up, Ryan shares how survival mode shapes our identity and how healing begins when we allow ourselves to ask for help. This episode is for anyone who feels stuck in a valley, questioning their past decisions, their worth, or their future. Ryan reminds us that progress doesn't come from massive leaps, but from small, intentional steps—just 1% better each day. A powerful reminder that strength is not about never breaking, but about learning how to bend, heal, and rediscover purpose.

Through his books, coaching, and courses, Ryan helps individuals turn pain into purpose, survival into service, and brokenness into growth. Key Takeaways: – Protector behaviors are formed in survival and need compassion, not judgment – Healing begins when we give ourselves permission to ask for help – One small step a day can change everything – Routines build stability when life feels chaotic – You are not broken—you are becoming Connect with Ryan: Website: https://ourprotectordevelopment.com/ Instagram| Facebook Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life ?

For many women, the hardest part of working in male-dominated industries isn't the work itself—it's the constant pressure to prove, tolerate, and stay quiet just to belong. In this powerful conversation, Samantha shares her lived experience as one of the few women in aviation and maintenance, revealing the mental toll of being the "only one in the room" and how that pressure quietly erodes confidence, self-worth, and wellbeing.

ABOUT THE GUEST: Samantha Kaye Harris is a workforce retention and confidence strategist for women in the trades and other male-dominated fields. With more than 25 years of experience in industries like aviation and structural maintenance, she helps women speak up, lead strong, and stay in careers they worked hard to get into— instead of feeling pushed out. ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: 1. START YOUR BRAG BAG TODAY Document your achievements, wins, and accolades—no matter how small. Review it when self-doubt creeps in. 2. DOCUMENT YOUR EXPERIENCES Write down when you're interrupted, overlooked, or disrespected. Don't dismiss it as "just the guys." 3. PRACTICE SELF-VALIDATION Stop waiting for external validation. Trust that you are qualified, capable, and belong. 4. SET BOUNDARIES WITHOUT APOLOGIZING Practice saying: "Let me finish," or "Give me a moment, and then you speak." 5. REFRAME CHALLENGES AS GROWTH Ask yourself: "What am I learning from this that will help elevate me?" 6. BREATHE AND RECONNECT When overwhelmed, stop and take a deep breath. Remind yourself of who you are. 7. SEEK SUPPORT WHEN NEEDED Consider working with a coach or counselor who understands your unique challenges.

As we have stepped into 2026, many of us are exhausted—not just mentally, but physically—from a world that rewards stillness and productivity over health. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, guest host Sana sits down with Pedro Wunderlich, founder of Wakeout, to challenge everything we've been taught about exercise. This conversation reframes movement as a natural, human need rather than a punishing task or moral test. Pedro shares how modern infrastructure, corporate culture, and the fitness industry have normalized sitting, discomfort, and disconnection from the body. From questioning ergonomic chairs to calling out hustle culture, this episode explores how small, intuitive movements throughout the day can restore not just physical health, but emotional clarity, connection, and joy. This is a powerful reminder that movement doesn't need to hurt to heal—and that your body isn't broken, it's just been ignored. About the Guest: Pedro Wunderlich is the founder of Wakeout, an award-winning movement app named Apple's App of the Year. Based in Guatemala, Pedro has designed nearly 3,000 natural movements to help people break free from sedentary lifestyles and reconnect with their bodies in gentle, human ways.

Fast wins feel good, but they often leave you burnt out and disconnected. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf talks with Jake Knox, author of Oak Logs and Gasoline, about why slow growth is not a delay, it is the foundation. This episode is for anyone chasing results but feeling scattered, stressed, or emotionally “behind.” You will learn how to shift from quick fixes to steady fuel through small, practical habits that build resilience at work, at home, and in how you relate to yourself. About the Guest: Jake Knox is the author of Oak Logs and Gasoline and a mentor-focused coach. He shares lessons shaped by years of conversations while raising four boys, using a “campfire” metaphor to teach sustainable growth.

Brock Grieve ran a 50-man team across four markets that did $23 million in revenue this year. He also personally sold $830K and earned his fifth Golden Door. Most leaders pick one or the other. He did both.In this episode, Hunter sits down with Brock to break down how he structured his days to lead and sell at the same time—morning trainings at 10 and 11am, one-on-ones during off-door hours, and full lock-in from 1pm until dark. Brock shares the early-summer anxiety that almost derailed his run, the morning routine that pulled him out (breathwork, identity questions, deleting social media, phone in black and white mode), and why proximity to people doing what you want to do is the only real cheat code.His team averaged $200K per rep, $51K rookie earnings, and less than 15% attrition. One of his leaders, Kyle Ring, went from 300 accounts to Golden Door with over 90% retention.Thank you for listening! Don't miss out on future episodes!

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Kylee Ingram to unpack how better decision design can reduce stress, improve clarity, and rebuild self-trust at work. They explore decision intelligence, crowd wisdom, and why “the usual people in the room” often leads to predictable mistakes. This conversation is for leaders, founders, and team members who feel stuck in chaotic meetings, unclear accountability, or constant second-guessing. You will learn how to structure decision rooms so the right voices are included, bias is reduced, and decisions improve without adding more time or drama. About the Guest: Kylee Ingram is the co-founder and CEO of Wizer, a decision intelligence platform focused on mapping cognitive strengths and helping teams bring the right people into important decisions. Her background includes television production and a crowdsourced documentary experiment called CrowdTV. Key Takeaways: Aim for 6+ decision participants to unlock “wise crowd” effects, but only if diversity and independence are built in Watch for three bias types in meetings: social (who is heard), information (what is valued), capacity(oversimplifying under pressure) A weak decision room looks like the same voices repeating, blind spots growing, and outcomes feeling narrow Build the room using three lenses: outward diversity (age, gender, ethnicity), experience, and cognitive roles(data, risk, options, process, outcomes) Better decision design can reduce errors and improve innovation when the right mix is present Start by understanding your own decision style, then add a complementary thinker to balance your blind spots How to Connect With the Guest: https://www.wizer.business/decision-profiles If you're curious about how you make decisions, Kylee invites listeners to complete a free Decision Profile. It takes about five minutes and gives you insight into your decision style, strengths, and blind spots — and how you tend to show up in group decisions.

Most people treat mental health like an emergency tool, not a daily strength practice. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with Cory Chadwick, founder of Lyceum, to unpack the difference between reactive coping and proactive growth. This conversation is for anyone who's functioning but not thriving, especially busy leaders and high performers who want more clarity, energy, and consistency. You'll learn how to close the gap between where you are now and your personal “10” by building repeatable mental habits, not chasing motivation. About the Guest: Cory Chadwick is the founder of Lyceum, a trainer-led “mental gym” designed to help leaders and high performers build proactive mental fitness. He focuses on practical tools, accountability, and consistent growth through weekly group training. Key Takeaways: Treat mental health like physical fitness: train consistently, not only in crisis Use the “1 to 10” check-in to spot the gap between current self and best self Drop the need for perfection: missing one day is normal, quitting is optional Focus on “do something, not nothing” to keep momentum alive Ask yourself: “What do I really want out of life?” to simplify decisions Build sustainable habits with structure, guidance, and community How to Connect With the Guest: LinkedIn (connect with Cory Chadwick) https://www.yourlyceum.com/ Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Justin Smith, creator of Cray, a dating safety app built from a deeply personal breakup and rebuild. Justin shares how a sudden, traumatic relationship collapse pushed him to question reality, spot manipulation patterns, and turn hard-earned lessons into a tool that helps others avoid the same pain. This conversation is for anyone who feels confused, drained, or unsafe in dating or long-term relationships, and wants clearer signals before things get worse. You will walk away with practical ways to compare words vs actions, understand why red flags matter, and use simple tools that support safer decisions without shame. About the Guest: Justin Smith is the creator of Cray, an app designed to help people recognize relationship red flags and manipulation patterns. Based in the U.S., he built Cray after a difficult end to an eight-year relationship. Key Takeaways: Ask: “Is this reality, or am I being pushed into a false story?” Compare words vs actions because consistency reveals truth faster than promises. Red flags matter more when you understand why they are dangerous, not just what they are. Use layered safety checks: relationship health, manipulation risk, legal history, and identity verification. If you would not accept this behavior for your child, do not normalize it for yourself. Tools reduce shame because you can seek clarity privately before asking others for advice.

Some pain does not just hurt. It reshapes how you trust, how you speak, and what you hide. In this tender episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits with author Lisa K. Raynor to explore what changes when survivors finally tell the truth. This episode is for anyone carrying trauma in silence, and for loved ones who want to support without judgment. Lisa shares how secrecy, shame, and not being believed can shape relationships and self-worth, and how small steps like writing can become a doorway to healing and helping others. About the Guest: Lisa K. Raynor is the author of Shelf Life of a Trophy Wife. She shares lived experience and reflections on survival, silence, and the non-linear path of healing. Key Takeaways: If you are not ready to share everything, start with one small safe step (journaling, a poem, a private note). Being “high-functioning” can hide deep pain; perfection is not proof you are okay. Not being believed keeps many survivors silent, so choose support carefully. Triggers can show up years later; you can “visit” dark days without living there. Shift the blame where it belongs: survivors are not responsible for what happened.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Samantha Jones to explore the hidden cost of “success” when your body is running on survival. Samantha shares how single motherhood, entrepreneurship, and chronic stress pulled her away from her own needs, and what finally helped her reconnect. This conversation is for business owners, leaders, and parents who look successful on paper but feel disconnected inside. You will hear practical ways to rebuild energy and clarity through small nourishment rituals, and a mindset shift that flips hustle culture on its head: design your life first, then build your business around it. About the Guest: Samantha Jones is an entrepreneur, culinary herbalist, wellness strategist, author, and speaker. She has worked in healthcare practices (including dentistry) and helps leaders integrate nervous system health and nourishment into real life and business. Key Takeaways: Survival-mode leadership often creates action before clarity; stability flips it to clarity then action You do not need burnout to hit milestones; success can include wellbeing A simple daily ritual (like 2 PM tea time) can rebuild body connection and self-trust Use food as support, not trends: notice what you feel, then choose nourishment accordingly Ask daily: “What do I want my life to look and feel like, and what is one small step today?” Build your life first, then build a business that fits that life How to Connect With the Guest: Website: Stirred by Earth (her forthcoming book name and her main hub) Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Referrals are often talked about as a “nice to have.” In this episode of Behind The Numbers With Dave Bookbinder, they're treated for what they really are - a measurable, scalable driver of profitable growth. Dave Bookbinder speaks with Brandon Barnum, widely known as the “King of Referrals,” about how referral-driven businesses outperform those that rely on traditional selling. Brandon shares his journey from single dad to referral-based entrepreneur and CEO of HOA.com, and breaks down the numbers behind referrals, including why B2B referrals convert at higher rates, stay longer, and deliver greater lifetime value. The conversation goes beyond theory and into execution. Brandon explains the mindset shift from selling to serving, his three-step referral framework (set the stage, listen for referral triggers, ASK to GET), and how to move referrals from something informal to a repeatable system. They discuss how to build and train referral partnerships, co-marketing strategies that actually work, and how to stand out when a prospect is given multiple referrals. Brandon also covers overlooked referral sources, the KPIs that matter when tracking referral performance, and how to scale referrals without losing the personal connection that makes them effective in the first place. Listeners will walk away with practical, actionable ideas - how to audit your existing relationships, why committing to one referral partner meeting per week can change your pipeline, how to systematize referrals across your team, and how to create a clear referral partner blueprint. About Our Guest: Brandon Barnum, known as the "King of Referrals," is an award-winning entrepreneur, speaker, and business strategist. He is the CEO of HOA.com and the author of four #1 best selling books in the Raving Referrals book series. A referral and sales expert, Brandon 10X'd his income from $20K to $200K in just 18 months.

At age 47, Neil Whitney and his wife were living paycheck to paycheck—one bad day away from losing everything. Now, less than ten years later, he's financially free with $8,000/month in passive income from rentals. Neil started with almost no money, promising his wife he would keep their life savings untouched while investing. He picked up side gigs, drove for Uber for a year and a half, and saved anything he could to buy a rental. And once he got his first rent check, everything changed for Neil and his family. Neil is now a millionaire in his 50s, thanks to “boring rentals,” all in affordable price ranges ($200K or under homes!). Once paid off, his rental portfolio will make him over $20,000 per month. In his own words, “If I can do this, anyone can do this.” Today, he shares the steps he took, how he finds the best tenants, and how to use rentals to fund the dream life you've always wanted (new cars, overseas trips, and more). So if you're in your 40s, 50s, or 60s and thinking it's too late for you to turn your life around and get to financial freedom, Neil is ready to prove you wrong. In This Episode We Cover How to buy your first rental property even if you're living paycheck to paycheck Are $200K houses really worth it? Neil says “yes!” and explains why lower-income tenants should not scare you The one side hustle that helped Neil save over $15,000 for real estate investing Using home equity to invest and build a real estate portfolio faster Want a new car? A nice vacation? How to have rentals pay for all of it The best piece of advice for new investors and those wanting to build financial freedom And So Much More!

Spencer Reese welcomes Ross Alcorn from Itinerary Boss https://itineraryboss.com/ to discuss credit card points and miles strategies, with special focus on small business owners. Ross shares how he saved $19,000 on his honeymoon, reveals tactical business spending strategies, and explains how military service members can leverage TDY travel and small business expenses to fund dream vacations. Guest: Ross Alcorn - Charlotte, NC-based travel strategist, former sales rep road warrior (6-7 years), real estate investor, and founder of Itinerary Boss. Key Topics Covered Getting Started - The Low-Hanging Fruit: Sign up for FREE hotel loyalty programs (Hilton, Marriott, IHG, Hyatt) Add loyalty numbers to TDY/TAD stays retroactively if needed Military discount: Epic Pass for active duty/spouses ~$200 (normally $1,200) Start with no annual fee cards to build credit and learn the basics Never carry a balance - if you're paying interest, you're doing it wrong Business Spending Strategies: Most common mistake: Using Amex Platinum for everything (only 1x points on most purchases) Capital One Venture X Business: Uncapped 2x points, no preset credit limit Cards earning 3-4x on ad spend (Facebook, Google ads) Use Melio (M-E-L-I-O) to pay vendors who don't accept cards via ACH (2.9% fee) Negotiate early payment discounts (net 15 vs net 30) to offset processing fees Millions in business expenses going uncharged to credit cards The 2.9% Fee Debate: Worth it if redeeming points at 1.5+ cents per point value Effective 25-40% cash back when factoring welcome bonuses + transfer value Business expenses are tax deductible Ross personally pays fees on all expenses knowing he'll redeem at 2-6 cents/point Real-World Example - $19,000 Honeymoon Savings: Cards used: Chase Sapphire Reserve, Capital One Venture, Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Ink Business Unlimited Flights: Qatar Q-Suites business class using 200K points (Chase + Capital One) Stayed 11 nights using Hyatt points at Alila properties in Bali Built point stash over 1-1.5 years through group travel booking + daily spend + business welcome bonuses Strategy: Booked award availability 355 days out when British Airways/Qatar released schedules Flexibility: Mixed business and premium economy on return flight Transfer Partners & Redemption: NEVER redeem for Amazon gift cards, statement credits, or low-value portal bookings (0.6-0.7 cents/point) Transfer to airline partners for 2-6+ cents per point value Don't use Amex points for hotels (poor value) Example: 175K Amex points = potential $12,700 business class seats to South Africa Tools: Points.Yeah.com for flight availability and award searching Military-Specific Advantages: Overseas duty stations = less competition for award space (Frankfurt, Tokyo, Seoul) Different inventory than US-based flyers TDY/TAD stays earn hotel points and elite status Annual fee waivers on personal cards (not business cards) via MLA/SCRA Chase Sapphire Reserve: $0 annual fee for military/spouses Strategic Tips: Always volunteer to pay group bills/dinners (earn points, get reimbursed) Premium economy fine for daytime flights under 8-9 hours Business class essential for overnight/long-haul flights (9+ hours) Plan 1-2 years ahead for big trips - comfortable pace to build points Opening velocity: Ross did one card every 91 days at peak (very aggressive) Combine household points (Chase, Amex, Capital One allow this) Book tickets in anyone's name, not just your own Credit Card Stacking Strategy: Don't use one premium card for everything Match card to spending category for maximum points Chase "cash back" cards earn Ultimate Rewards points if you have Sapphire Reserve/Preferred Transfer between household members before booking Welcome bonuses are the real value - daily spend is bonus Business Culture Hack: Instead of $5-10K cash bonus, give employees 500K miles + book their dream trip Tax deductible, builds culture, retains talent More memorable than cash bonus IHG Five Free Nights Strategy: Five free nights at properties up to 60K points/night Ross staying 4 nights in Grand Cayman at $800/night hotel = $3,200 saved Fourth night free on award bookings Anniversary free night each year Used for wedding block, earning 26x points on wedding expenses Common Mistakes to Avoid: Not asking vendors if they accept credit cards Using wrong card for spending category (leaving 2-3x points on table) Redeeming points poorly (gift cards, statement credits) Not tracking card benefits and credits Waiting too long to book award travel Not being flexible with dates/airports Tools & Resources Mentioned: Points.Yeah.com - Award availability search, flight ideas map Melio - Pay vendors via card when they only accept ACH Plastiq - Pay rent/large bills with credit card (2.9% fee) Free Points & Miles Cheat Sheet at ItineraryBoss.com Transfer partner guide and credit card multiplier sheets Key Quotes "There's millions of dollars that aren't being put on cards because of just not asking the right questions." "If you're earning 2x points and utilizing those points to transfer, even with a 3% fee, the numbers pencil when you're redeeming at 2-6 cents per point." "175,000 Amex points could be used to get you business class, first class seats - we used 176K Chase points for $12,700 worth of business class seats to South Africa." "Don't redeem for Amazon gift cards, statement credits, or through the portal - you're getting 0.6-0.7 cents per point. That's terrible." "Why give a $10K cash bonus when you could give someone 500K miles and book them a trip to Greece or Bali they'd never do on their own?"

Some wounds are not from one moment, but years of surviving what you never should have faced. On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with trauma-informed psychotherapist Anjalia McGoldrick to explore how real healing begins when you finally slow down and look within. This episode is for anyone who feels stuck in old patterns, gets easily triggered in relationships, or quietly believes it is too late to change. You will learn how to spot inner-child signals, stop projecting pain onto others, and rebuild self-worth through compassion, forgiveness, and daily practice. About the Guest: Anjalia McGoldrick is a trauma-informed psychotherapist, metaphysician, and motivational speaker. She founded Life in Balance Counseling and Wellness Center and is the author of The Child I Left Behind. Key Takeaways: Treat triggers as signals: name the emotion, then ask “where do I feel this in my body?” Replace blame with curiosity: “What old story is this activating in me?” Practice inner-child reparenting: respond with reassurance, not criticism. Watch for avoidance habits (overworking, numbing behaviors) and choose one honest step instead. Use forgiveness as self-release: write what happened, what you learned, and what you needed then.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Gazit Chaya Nkosi to explore what it truly takes to move from surviving to genuinely living. Gazit shares a raw, grounded journey through long-term suicidal thinking, sensory sensitivity, trauma responses, and the slow return to inner trust. This conversation is for anyone who feels stuck in anxiety, shutdown, reactivity, shame, or the pressure to “push through.” You will hear practical insight on why talk therapy alone can miss the body's needs, how nervous system regulation changes everything, and how to find a path beyond rigid cultural rules into real self-worth. About the Guest: Gazit Chaya Nkosi is a coach and mystic seeker who works with Safe and Sound Protocol listening and somatic parts work. They share lived experience with trauma, sensory sensitivity, and reclaiming a life that feels safe and authentic. Key Takeaways: Notice how “push through” often creates more shutdown, not more strength Separate your inner truth from cultural rules about gender, worth, and safety Use bottom-up tools (breath, movement, sound, mindfulness) to support regulation Understand reactivity and dissociation as survival responses, not personal failure Explore somatic parts work to reduce inner conflict and build integration Build safety in the body first, then the mind can follow How to Connect With the Guest: Website: https://www.therootedcoop.com/ YouTube: The Rooted Co-op Free inquiry calls and resources are available through the website.

From Trump's blistering Davos speech to an EU emergency meeting, the global order is shifting fast
A new year can feel hopeful and heavy at the same time. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana (filling in for Avik) sits down with spiritual teacher and transformation guide Ashmita Arora to explore a bold question: is there one root cause behind most human suffering, and one solution that keeps getting missed? This conversation is for anyone feeling stuck in repeating patterns, burnout, relationship strain, or self-pressure. Ashmita breaks down how attachment fuels overwhelm, and how detachment (especially in perception) can create real freedom, clarity, and peace. About the Guest: Ashmita Arora is a spiritual teacher, transformation guide, entrepreneur, and author. She is the founder of an intuitive practice and creator of Portal to Self, a transformational journey focused on clarity, release, and integration. Key Takeaways: Identify the attachment driving your stress (perfection, success, approval, control). Practice detachment by changing how you perceive the situation, not just the situation itself. Use meditation consistently to reconnect with your body's signals of expansion vs contraction. Reframe “mistakes” by assigning new meaning and looking for the lesson. Ask before big choices: “Is this fear, guilt, or obligation?” How to Connect With the Guest: https://www.ashmitaarora.com/ If you're in immediate crisis, contact local emergency services or your regional suicide prevention helpline.

In this episode, I walk through a real, high-stakes moment inside a warehousing and logistics operation, thousands of pallets of telecom cable, a hard year-end deadline, and a task nobody actually owned. The team was facing a potential six-figure hit, measuring precious metal content by hand with clipboards and micrometers, under serious time pressure. During a simple office hours session, we paused, reframed the problem, and realized this wasn't a labor issue at all. It was a vision problem. What followed was a fast, scrappy sprint. Sales, warehouse staff, and engineers worked side by side. We prototyped, tested, and shipped a vision-based AI system in days, not months. Using lightweight tooling, we cut monthly costs by more than $150K, improved measurement accuracy, and delivered a working solution in under 72 hours. If you're skeptical about what "good enough" AI can actually do in the real world, this story is a clean proof point Visit convergence.fm and contact us for to schedule your own office hours and get clarity and confidence tackling your toughest product and engineering challenges. Inside the episode… A logistics company's urgent copper-measurement problem with no clear owner The hidden cost and inefficiency of manually measuring more than 5,000 pallets How a single office hours conversation reframed the problem as a vision-AI opportunity Training a custom vision model using pallet photos and simple index cards Rapid prototyping with automation and vision tooling to ship in days Over $150K in cost savings and a dramatically better experience for warehouse teams Why involving frontline workers accelerated adoption and improved feedback loops Letting go of perfection and embracing statistically "good enough" outcomes What this teaches us about speed, trust, and momentum through small wins Where this approach goes next and why similar teams should be paying attention Mentioned in this episode n8n (automation platform) Roboflow (vision model training) ChatGPT (image and text analysis) OpenAI API Subscribe to the Convergence podcast wherever you listen, and catch video episodes on YouTube at youtube.com/@convergencefmpodcast.

If we could invest in real estate anywhere in the country, where would we put our money? It's a new year, and markets have already shifted, changing where the best buying opportunities are. So today, Ashley Kehr (from the Real Estate Rookie podcast), Henry, and Dave are back to share their updated 2026 best places to buy rental property list! These markets span multiple states, but many have affordable home prices (some even below $200K!). But of these top markets, which one would we make the biggest bet on? These markets fly under the radar—we're not talking about big cities like Miami, Austin, Chicago, or Denver. Many of these may be real estate markets you've only heard of once or twice, but once you hear the numbers, you might take a deeper look. If you want cash-flowing cities with landlord-friendly laws, we have them. If you want appreciation potential in affordable pockets of the country, we've got that, too. And, if you want to buy a rental in the birthplace of Mountain Dew, you're in luck. Each of these cities is broken down into metrics that matter most to investors: average home price, rent price, rent-to-price ratio, population growth, job growth, and more. These aren't just “cheap” markets with low home prices, but “sleeper” cities that only the savviest investors know about. In This Episode We Cover A cash-flowing college town with home prices that are below $200K The hurricane-safe southern city that is growing at lightning speed An affordable “sleeper” market between two very unaffordable cities Small multifamilies and Mountain Dew: this market has plenty of both You can buy a home for around $160,000 in this Midwest market with a (surprisingly) large population And So Much More!
