What if the key to less clutter isn't just owning less, but changing the way you think about what comes into your life?You can simplify your home and your decisions by exploring four powerful ideas: acquire, require, desire, and admire.Acquiring is about what you bring into your home. Requiring is about what you genuinely need to support your current life. Desiring is about the things you want because they bring enjoyment, beauty, comfort, or satisfaction. And admiring is the often-overlooked skill of appreciating something without feeling the need to own it.As you reflect on these concepts, you'll discover that they influence each other in different ways.If you're action-oriented, reducing what you acquire may naturally help you realise you need less and eventually want less. If you're someone who processes through thoughts and feelings first, examining your desires may lead to requiring less and ultimately acquiring less.You'll also find practical questions to help you make intentional decisions before bringing something into your home. Are you accepting it out of obligation? Does it fit your life today? Are you trying to fill an emotional void? Would you even have wanted it if you hadn't seen it advertised?Using the example of replacing a broken sandwich press, you'll see how a simple purchasing decision can be filtered through these questions to determine whether it's a genuine need or simply a passing want.Most importantly, you'll be encouraged to embrace the freedom of admiring beautiful things without feeling responsible for owning them. Sometimes the most intentional choice is simply to appreciate something and leave it where it is.Mentioned Uncluttered Faith by Joshua BeckerYou may also like to listen to these episodes:Need. Want.

What if you attracted 50 buyers in two months - for a product you almost didn't list? That's not a marketing strategy. That's exactly what happened when 21-year-old Ovi Shekh posted Wisdomic AI on Acquire.com and watched his inbox fill up faster than he expected. Ovi is a CS student from Dhaka, Bangladesh. He's already exited two businesses before most people his age have submitted a single job application. His first exit came almost by accident - a COVID-era grocery delivery startup, quietly acquired after the buyer tracked him down on Instagram. His second was Wisdomic AI. An AI-powered academic research tool he'd spent eight months building. Ten thousand signups. Nineteen hundred active users. Fifty-plus universities. And a product he genuinely didn't want to let go of. But he listed it anyway. Just to see. Fifty-two inquiries later, he had a signed LOI with his chosen buyer. And then a better offer showed up. More money. Different vision. And Ovi walked away from it. Because here's the thing most first-time sellers never think to use as a dealbreaker - vision alignment. Not the highest number. Not the cleanest terms. Whether the buyer actually believes in what you built and will carry it forward the right way. That was the filter. That was the whole decision. The buyer Ovi chose went on to raise $700,000 using the asset Ovi sold him. Let that sit for a second. In this episode, Jaryd sits down with Ovi to unpack how a 21-year-old from Bangladesh navigated two exits, turned down a better offer on purpose, and figured out the rules of the acquisition game earlier than almost anyone around him. How he valued an eight-month-old SaaS with no ARR and a niche user base that didn't behave like typical consumers. Why he applied to Y Combinator eight times, got rejected every single time, and what that finally told him about where his leverage actually lived. And the one thing he says nobody tells you when you're building - that you don't get rich owning a startup. Only selling one. Most founders fall in love with their product and never let go. Ovi fell in love with his, listed it just to see what would happen, and walked away with a lesson worth more than the exit itself.

In this homily on Christ's prayer "that they may be one," Father Anthony reflects on humanity's calling to communion and the tragic ease with which sin turns even good things into instruments of division. Drawing on the example of Arius and the divisions of the modern world, he argues that the deepest fractures in society begin not in institutions but in the human heart. The healing of the world therefore begins not with self-righteous outrage or victory over enemies, but with repentance, humility, holiness, and the difficult work of learning to love one another in Christ.  Enjoy the show! --- Homily - Becoming One in Christ Sunday after Ascension John 17:1-13 Today we hear our Lord pray for His people: that they may be one. Not merely friendly, not merely cooperative, but one. And not just one in purpose or organization. He says: "that they may be one, as We are one." This is an astonishing thing. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are distinct persons, yet perfectly united in love, perfectly united in will, perfectly united in life. And this is what mankind was created for. We were not made for isolation. We were not made for hatred. We were not made for endless suspicion and division. We were made for communion. The Apostle Paul gives us another image for this mystery. He says that we are one body, with Christ Himself as the head. This is what salvation is: not merely individual forgiveness, but the healing and reunification of humanity in Christ. The Church exists so that the scattered may be gathered together. So that enemies may become brothers. So that strangers may become family. So that what sin shattered may be made whole again. But if we are honest, we know that we are not doing a very good job of this. We live in a world increasingly defined by division. And the frightening thing is how naturally division now comes to us. Even the tools that were meant to unite us become instruments of separation. Not long ago, new technologies promised to reconnect people. Families separated by distance could remain close. Old friends could reconnect. Communities could stay in touch. And for a moment, it seemed wonderful. But how quickly did sin find a way to use those same tools for anger, condemnation, mockery, tribalism, and hatred? Love creates communion. Pride creates factions. And pride is endlessly creative. We divide ourselves by politics, by class, by race, by ideology, by education, by culture, by nation, and even by theology. We define ourselves not by what we love together, but by whom we oppose. And once division takes hold, it begins to feel righteous. We become certain that we are the ones who see clearly, and everyone else is blind. This is not a new temptation. The early Church struggled with it as well. In the fourth century, a priest named Arius became convinced that he understood the mystery of Christ better than the Church herself. He read the Scriptures, formed his conclusions, and became absolutely certain that he was right. When the bishops gathered together at Nicaea and proclaimed the faith handed down through the apostles—that Christ is eternally begotten of the Father, true God of true God, of one essence with the Father—Arius refused to repent. Now it is easy for us to hear this story and imagine ourselves standing heroically with the saints. We imagine ourselves as Athanasius defending the truth. Or perhaps as Saint Nicholas rebuking heresy. But if I am honest, that is usually not who I am in the story. I am the man who justifies himself. I am the man who explains why his anger is righteous, why his condemnation is necessary, why his enemies deserve contempt, why his divisions are justified. I am the man who says: "I know how the world works. I know who is wrong. I know who is to blame." And this is where the healing must begin. Because the greatest divisions in the world do not begin in legislatures, or courts, or media, or institutions. They begin in the human heart. Sin always begins there. And sin does not remain private. We often imagine that our bitterness, our contempt, our pride, our hatred remain safely hidden within us. But they do not. Sin has consequences. Sin shapes perception. Sin distorts judgment. Sin affects families, friendships, communities, and nations. Love creates communion. Pride creates factions. And if pride rules the heart, even good things become corrupted. Policies cannot save us. Technology cannot save us. Political victories cannot save us. Because sin will always find a way to weaponize them. A divided heart creates division wherever it goes. This does not mean that justice does not matter. It does not mean that laws do not matter. It does not mean that evil should be ignored. But it does mean that the healing of the world begins somewhere much closer than we often imagine. It begins with repentance. Not the repentance of our enemies. Our own. The saints understood this. Saint Seraphim famously said: "Acquire the Spirit of peace, and thousands around you will be saved." Notice where he begins. Not with controlling the world. Not with defeating enemies. Not with forcing outcomes. But with repentance. With purification of the heart. With peace in Christ. This is incredibly liberating. Because when we look at the divisions of the world, it is easy to become overwhelmed. It is easy to think: "This can never be healed." But Christ has already shown us how healing begins. I repent of my sins. I learn humility. I learn patience. I learn how to forgive. I learn how to see my brother not as an enemy, but as someone for whom Christ died. And then grace begins to spread outward. Christ heals my heart. Then my family. Then my friendships. Then my parish. And through the lives of repentant people, the world itself begins to change. This is how the saints transformed civilizations. Not primarily through power. Not through outrage. Not through self-righteousness. But through holiness. The Lord did not command us to win every argument. He commanded us to love one another. And this love is not sentimental weakness. It is crucifixion. It is humility. It is patience. It is refusing to hate. It is the hard and holy work of becoming one in Christ. My brothers and sisters, the world is hungry for this kind of witness. Not more noise. Not more fury. Not more factions. The world is hungry for peace. For holiness. For communion. For Christ. So let us begin where the saints always begin: with repentance. "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner." And through that prayer, may Christ heal our hearts, our homes, our parish, and through them, the world. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Your practice is stuck because you don't have enough Qualified Leads to take you to the next level.  In this episode, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack the first and often most common bottleneck in practice growth: the inability to consistently attract the right people with the right message at the right time. Through the lens of the Theory of Constraints, they reveal why marketing struggles are rarely solved by simply “doing more marketing” and instead require deeper clarity around purpose, messaging, ideal patient profiles, and measurable systems. From refining the market message that cuts through the noise to understanding Marketing Spend, CAC (Cost to Acquire a Customer) and “Buyer Readiness”, this episode provides a strategic framework for chiropractors who want to stop spraying and praying and start building predictable attraction systems that scale influence, income, and patient impact. In This Episode You Will: Understand why attraction constraints are often the hidden bottleneck in practice growth. Discover how purpose, mission, and vision shape effective marketing systems.  Learn how to create messaging that cuts through marketplace noise and increases readiness.  Clarify the difference between random marketing activity and measurable lead generation.  See how metrics like CAC and LTV create confidence, scale, and strategic decision-making.   Episode Highlights 01:44 - Identify how one primary constraint can quietly suppress growth across an otherwise healthy practice. 03:54 - Discover why true transformation begins when education unlocks awareness rather than simply delivering information. 05:28 - Recognize how unresolved attraction constraints keep practices stuck even when effort and intention remain high. 08:16 - Explore why great coaching often reveals hidden solutions that were already within reach. 11:12 - Clarify why the problem behind the problem must be solved before marketing tactics can produce meaningful growth. 14:23 - Uncover how defining an ideal client profile changes the precision and effectiveness of attraction strategies. 16:36 - Examine the three-part messaging equation required to cut through marketplace noise and create urgency. 18:06 - Reveal how trust-building systems increase patient readiness long before a conversion conversation begins. 20:38 - Differentiate between inconsistent marketing activity and the disciplined repetition required to create momentum. 27:31 - Understand why data-driven marketing eliminates stress and creates confidence in scaling patient acquisition. 28:43 - Dr. Rachel is joined by Dr. Kendall Price of Success Partner Elevate Marketing to unpack what it really takes to turn marketing into a true growth system for modern practices. They explore how Elevate moves beyond generic campaigns by blending brand identity with proven strategies, building trust through every step of the patient journey, and optimizing for real outcomes like patient show rates, not just leads.

On this week's Bourbon Community Roundtable, the team is throwing down over the biggest rumor to hit the industry in decades: Is Sazerac really trying to buy Brown-Forman for $15 Billion, or is this the ultimate PR stunt? We're breaking down the health of these two giants and asking the tough questions: Does Brown-Forman actually need Sazerac, or is this just a shark smelling blood in the water? We dig into the strategic timing of the offer and the massive cultural divide between the two companies. From Sazerac's "boots on the ground" influencer tactics to the legacy-driven machine of Brown-Forman, we analyze the financial mechanics that make this potential deal both fascinating and terrifying. One thing is for sure: the landscape of your local liquor store shelf might never be the same. Show Notes: Sazerac's potential acquisition of Brown-Forman: excitement and implications Financial dynamics and what they mean for both companies Brand loyalty's role and its impact on bourbon consumers Predictions on the merger's likelihood and challenges Comparing marketing strategies between Sazerac and Brown-Forman Regulatory considerations in the acquisition talks Learn more about your ad choices.
