This MTM Minute is powered by Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. Are you building a legacy or just performing for applause? In this week's full length episode You Can't Hustle Legacy, Dr. Darnyelle calls out the costly patterns hiding behind hustle culture, and reveals what it truly means to lead with legacy in mind. If your business is thriving on the outside but draining your soul on the inside, this is your wake-up call. Learn how burnout disguises itself as achievement, why wealth without fulfillment is a dangerous trap, and how to finally shift your pattern of performance into a practice of peace. The full-length episode is a high-level conversation on soul leadership, nervous system alignment, sustainable growth, and what it means to create wealth without losing yourself in the process. If you're scaling to 7 figures or beyond, you can't afford to ignore this one. This episode will challenge your perception of success and call you into a deeper level of alignment as a Legacy Led CEO. Dr. Darnyelle explores the five hidden costs of building a business without legacy at the center: burnout, emotional bankruptcy, wealth without fulfillment, identity confusion, and legacy leakage. Through powerful reframes and soul-stirring questions, you'll be guided to reroute the pressure, protect your peace, and choose a new standard for leading and scaling in integrity with your spirit and strategy. This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is I anchor my business in legacy, not lack. I do not perform for approval or chase profit to feel worthy. I build with my soul at the center. I lead with peace, not pressure. I create offers that heal, not harm. I rest without guilt. I rise without proving. I declare that my success nourishes me, sustains me, and outlives me. I release the patterns that kept me hustling and embrace the rhythm that honors my highest identity. My money aligns with my mission. My strategy flows from my spirit. My life is evidence that overflow is sacred and sustainable. This is what legacy looks like—and I choose it now. Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Audit your alignment, not just your numbers. Check your calendar, your offers, and your energy. If your peace is missing, your legacy is leaking. Ask better questions to lead with clarity. Use Darnyelle's three recalibration prompts weekly: Did I lead from peace or pressure? Was that decision from alignment or ambition? Would God approve how I moved today? Decide what success feels like, not just what it earns. Rebuild your business around your definition of safety, sustainability, and spiritual integrity—not hustle metrics. Affirm with me: I anchor my business in legacy, not lack. I do not perform for approval or chase profit to feel worthy. I build with my soul at the center. I lead with peace, not pressure. I create offers that heal, not harm. I rest without guilt. I rise without proving. I declare that my success nourishes me, sustains me, and outlives me. I release the patterns that kept me hustling and embrace the rhythm that honors my highest identity. My money aligns with my mission. My strategy flows from my spirit. My life is evidence that overflow is sacred and sustainable. This is what legacy looks like—and I choose it now. And This Week's Journal Prompts Are: This week, I led from a place of… I feel most misaligned in my business when… A legacy I want to leave through my business is… And Your Prayer Of The Week: God, we thank You for the divine opportunity to build beyond ourselves. We thank You that we are not just creating revenue, we are creating ripple effects that will impact generations. Today, we release the pressure to perform and the patterns that drain us. We ask for the strength to lead with peace, the wisdom to make aligned decisions, and the courage to build businesses that honor You and honor us. Root us in clarity, keep us grounded in purpose, and remind us that legacy isn't found in the hustle but in the holy. Let every step we take this week move us closer to overflow and the impact we are anointed to make. In Your name, amen.

These recent bankruptcies have garnered close attention from the marketplace because they represent the very real possibility serious cracks have already weakened credit markets...to the point even the stock market (part of it, anyway) is taking a hard look. Ally, Bread Financial, Affirm, even Capital One, they've all see their stocks plummet. There's more here than it seems because of all the noise about share indexes and their own record highs. Everyone has ignored job losses, until now that is. Eurodollar University conversation w/Steve Van Metre----------------------------------------------------------------This is all exactly why Eurodollar University is holding a webinar on Tuesday October 14, at 6pm ET.

In this candid conversation, couples and sex therapist Dr. Nicole Van Ness, LMFT joins Dr. Marianne to explore how developmental trauma shapes attachment styles, body image, sexual desire, and day-to-day intimacy. Nicole explains what developmental trauma is, how it differs from or overlaps with complex PTSD, and why chronic misattunement in childhood can echo through adult relationships, stress responses, and self-regulation. You will hear practical, compassionate strategies to rebuild safety, agency, and connection in your body and with your partner. What You'll Learn Developmental trauma 101: How repeated misattunement and lack of repair in childhood influence trust, safety, and the nervous system in adulthood. Attachment and sex: How anxious and avoidant patterns can create desire pursuer–withdrawer cycles, sensitivity to rejection, and misaligned invitations for sex. Body image and pleasure: Why self-loathing, dissociation, and low interoceptive awareness can shift sex from pleasure to performance and how to return to embodied enjoyment. Masturbation as self-care: Ways self-pleasure can restore agency, support trauma recovery, and improve partnered intimacy through curiosity, consent, and pacing. Desire discrepancy: How to reframe a declined invitation as information rather than personal rejection and how to stay connected when desire levels differ. Pelvic and sexual pain: How chronic stress and hypervigilance can contribute to issues like vaginismus and pelvic floor tension and why relaxation and safety matter. Neurodivergence and RSD: Tools for identifying rejection sensitive dysphoria in the moment and naming it with your partner to reduce spirals and repair faster. Eroticism and aliveness: Gentle, stepwise practices that rebuild embodiment and pleasure, from sensing music and movement to sharing desire with a partner. Key Takeaways Trauma adaptations are creative survival strategies. They deserve respect while you learn new options that fit your current life. Pleasure requires enough safety, agency, and self-worth to receive and enjoy it. These ingredients can be rebuilt. Honest conversations about boundaries, pacing, and permission support intimacy more than duty or performance. Small, consistent body-based practices help restore interoception, reduce hypervigilance, and widen your window of tolerance during sex and affection. Gentle Practices to Try Name your nervous system state: Am I keyed up, shut down, or settled. Choose regulation first. Solo exploration with care: Treat self-pleasure like self-nurture. Slow it down. Focus on sensation, comfort, and curiosity. Low-stakes embodiment: Sway to a favorite song, notice breath, enjoy soft fabrics, or feel grass under your feet. Build from neutral to pleasant sensations. Clear invitations and exits: Ask for what you want. Offer options. Affirm that no is welcome. Agree on easy ways to pause or change course. Rejection reframe: A no is information about timing or capacity, not your worth. Validate disappointment and stay connected.

This MTM Minute is powered by Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. Most 6- and 7-figure entrepreneurs are praying for millions but building on chaos—and they don't even realize it. In this powerful third installment of the Legacy-Led CEO Series, Dr. Darnyelle unpacks the seven sacred rhythms every 7-figure CEO must master to experience sustainable success. You'll discover why hustle keeps you broke, how spiritual alignment is your real business plan, and what daily practices high-performing entrepreneurs use to outperform their peers by 25% or more. If your strategy is stalled, this episode reveals why—and how to shift with intention, structure, and overflow. It's not about working harder. It's about working in rhythm with God, your legacy, and your nervous system. This episode will give you the blueprint for sustainable success by revealing the seven purpose-driven practices every Legacy-Led CEO needs to anchor in rhythm, regulation, and revenue. You'll walk away understanding why rest is spiritual, why obedience is a growth strategy, and why your nervous system—not your marketing—is the real foundation of overflow. If you're tired of the inconsistency in your income or feel disconnected from the purpose of your business, this episode will recalibrate your leadership and reignite your legacy. This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is I honor the divine structure of my legacy. I am not building on chaos, I am building on sacred rhythm. My calendar is a consecrated covenant. My practices hold my power. I do not chase millions—I calibrate to hold them. I do not work harder—I align deeper. Each day, I rise in devotion, I move in obedience, and I lead in rhythm. Overflow is not a fluke—it is the fruit of my daily discipline. I am spiritually attuned, energetically calibrated, and financially fortified. I am the steward of my calling. I lead with grace, I multiply with ease, and I hold the mantle of a Legacy-Led CEO with sacred authority. Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Choose Your Rhythm, Not Your Reaction Establish one sacred practice from the Legacy Leadership Protocol this week—whether it's a CEO Sabbath or energetic calibration—and commit to it fully. Your nervous system is your business strategy. Track Obedience Like Revenue If you're willing to check your bank account daily, start checking in with God daily too. Obedience is not optional—it's the accelerator to sustainable overflow. Audit Your Calendar for Chaos If your calendar doesn't reflect your legacy, your legacy won't reflect your wealth. Block time this week to align your routines with your revenue goals. Affirm with me: I honor the divine structure of my legacy. I am not building on chaos, I am building on sacred rhythm. My calendar is a consecrated covenant. My practices hold my power. I do not chase millions—I calibrate to hold them. I do not work harder—I align deeper. Each day, I rise in devotion, I move in obedience, and I lead in rhythm. Overflow is not a fluke—it is the fruit of my daily discipline. I am spiritually attuned, energetically calibrated, and financially fortified. I am the steward of my calling. I lead with grace, I multiply with ease, and I hold the mantle of a Legacy-Led CEO with sacred authority. And this week's journal prompts are: The daily rhythm that would change everything for me is… When I check in with my legacy, I feel… The habit I avoid but know I need is… And your prayer of the week: God, we thank You for the sacred assignment we carry as Legacy-Led CEOs. We acknowledge that the move to millions is not built on hustle, but on holy habits and divine alignment. We pray that You anchor us in rhythm, obedience, and rest. Teach us to trust provision over performance and peace over pressure. Help us to calibrate our energy, steward our mantle, and honor our lineage through every decision. May we become leaders who are not only wealthy but wise. Show us how to lead our companies in a way that reflects Heaven's order and Earth's impact. We receive clarity, we receive structure, and we receive Your presence in our business this week. In Your name, Amen.

In this episode of Always Be Testing, host Tye DeGrange sits down with John Toskey, a seasoned marketing leader with over 25 years of experience in global partner and performance marketing. Having held senior roles at eBay, Affirm, and Opera Software, and now running his own consulting practice, John unpacks lessons from decades of leading high-performing global marketing teams. He shares valuable insights on building diverse and sustainable teams, creating a culture of experimentation, and the importance of asking the right questions when testing. The conversation dives into why diversity in location, experience, and seniority strengthens team performance, how to avoid “talent logjams” and keep growth pathways open, and what it takes to scale a test-and-learn culture while ensuring results are properly shared. John and Tye also explore the balance between data, intuition, and executive alignment in decision-making, the evolving future of performance marketing—from BNPL to retail media to influencer backlash—and the promise and risks of AI in marketing, including generational differences in its adoption. Adding a personal touch, John opens up about his passion for cooking, vegan living, and even bird-watching apps, making this conversation both insightful and relatable.

Outgoing Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba and South Korean President Lee Jae-myung met in Busan, South Korea, on Tuesday and agreed that their countries will continue "shuttle diplomacy," or reciprocal visits by leaders, to foster stable bilateral relations.

DISCLOSURE: While a 2019 video of Charlie Kirk and Rod Smith shows Charlie defending gay Christianity, a 2024 video suggests that Charlie's views on this issue took a turn. In 2024 he clearly condemns the practice and quotes Leviticus 18 an 20 while doing so. I took the episode down until I located evidence that Charlie held the orthodox Christian view on homosexuality. In this episode of The Reformed Rant,I take a few moments to reflect on the life, influence, and legacy of Charlie Kirk and his work with Turning Point USA. With his recent passing, emotions are high, and responses have been pouring in from across the political and religious spectrum.I want to praise God for the good that has come—and will continue to come—through Charlie's bold contributions to the conservative movement and to the broader Church of God. His courage to speak truth in thepublic square and engage young minds in the cultural arena is not to be taken lightly. At the same time, I would like to urge you, the listener, to keep your critical thinking cap firmlyin place. As we reflect on someone's legacy, we must be careful not to let our affections cloud our discernment. Affirm the good—but do not ignore the concerns. Truth never calls us to compromise. And in honoring those who have gone before us, we must always remember that our highest allegiance is toChrist and His Word. So join me as I offer my thoughts—not just in tribute, but in truth.

Sermon NotesI. IntroductionJoseph Campbell (not a Christian, but a student of mythology/religion) observed:“What we are looking for is a way of experiencing the world that will open to us the transcendent...”Human beings are incurably spiritual—we seek transcendence.Some through traditional religions (Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Islam).Others through mindfulness, energy work, nature, etc.Two key points:Affirm the desire for transcendence—it is real and God-given.Learn to discern authentic transcendence from false or self-referential spirituality.II. The Text: Exodus 2:23–3:12Context: Moses in Midian, tending sheep near Horeb.Not seeking a spiritual encounter; God initiates it.Key Question: What can we learn about genuine transcendent encounters?Two themes: Person and Paradox.III. The PERSON Moses EncounteredThe Angel of the LORD (v. 2)More than just an angel → identified with God Himself.Possibly the pre-incarnate Christ (Word/Logos).Authentic TranscendenceEncounter with someone other than himself.Not self-discovery or inner potential—real personhood beyond Moses.God is personal, not impersonal force/energy.The Burning Bush SymbolismFire = light, warmth, purification, judgment.Bush not consumed → God is self-sustaining, absolute reality, source of all existence.Childlike question: “Who created God?” → answer: no one. He is the source.Authentic transcendence = encountering the self-existent God who draws near.IV. The PARADOX of God's PresenceGod Knows Moses by Name (v. 4)God is relational, loving, intimately aware of Moses' story.God's nature = love and relationship.But… God's Holiness Creates Distance (v. 5)“Do not come near; take off your sandals, for this is holy ground.”Holiness = God's otherness + moral purity.Human corruption (sin) incompatible with holiness.Illustration: fresh snow → pure → later becomes dirty slush.Result: God is both near and distant → paradox.Resolution of the ParadoxGod Himself provides the way for humans to approach.In Moses' case: humility (remove sandals).Later: OT sacrificial system.Ultimately: Jesus Christ.His cross removes sin barrier.Makes access to God's holy presence possible.Application: Spirit is HOLY; without Christ we would be consumed, with Christ we receive Him with joy.V. ConclusionWe are spiritual beings with souls that crave transcendence.Not every spirituality satisfies—self-focused versions fall short.At the burning bush, Moses encountered:Absolute reality.A personal God.Holy presence made accessible by God's provision.Our souls find satisfaction only in the Triune God—Father, Son, Spirit.Call: Don't settle for less than the real.Discussion Questions:How would you define transcendence? Have you had any experiences in your life that you would describe as transcendent?If, as the sermon suggests, genuine spirituality is not self-referential (simply connecting with more of yourself), is deeper self-knowledge still important? If so, where is it found? Is there a connection between encountering the real God and discovering the real self? How so?Read Exodus 3:3-4. Do you believe it is significant that God did not call to Moses until he turned aside to see the strange sight? Do you think God would have still spoken to Moses if he had not turned aside? How might this speak to the lack of encounters with God that many experience today? As you reflect on that, consider Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poem:Earth's crammed with heaven,And every common bush afire with God,But only he who sees, takes off his shoes,The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries,And daub their natural faces unaware.Read Exodus 3:7-12.  What was the ultimate purpose of Moses' encounter with God at the Burning Bush? What was God's purpose for revealing himself to Moses? Is there a link today between our personal encounters with God and a greater purpose like mission?Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon? Email Randy Forrester ().

Allow it." - @Godlywaiting"There is a mother who is embroidering. Her son, sitting on a low stool, sees her work, but upside down. He sees the knots of the embroidery, the tangled threads and says, 'Mother, what are you doing? Your work is not at all clear.' The mother lowers the embroidery frame and shows the good part of her work, each color in its place and the variety of threads forming a harmonious design. We are seeing the reverse side of the embroidery; we are sitting on the low stool." -St. Padre Pio

In a season of Stillness, but I'm still here. ❤️‍

In this episode, Travis and producer Eric dissect the troubling rise of “buy now, pay later” schemes—from renting Jordans for 53 payments to financing Chipotle burritos with Klarna. Together, they break down the dangers of weekly payment plans, the psychological tricks behind small recurring payments, and the growing $82B debt problem fueled by these fintech innovations. The rise of “buy now, pay later” apps like Klarna and Affirm, now offering financing for everything from shoes to lunch—why this is NOT financial freedom Why weekly payment structures psychologically lure customers, obscuring actual costs (“just $19 a week” means more than $1,000 over a year for a pair of shoes) Klarna's CEO admits most shouldn't finance small purchases—yet the option is everywhere, and millions fall for it How buy now, pay later debt is now practically invisible to traditional credit monitors, with 90–100M Americans using these services and $82B spent in 2024 alone The discipline myth: Why sustainable wealth and financial self-control depend on removing temptation, building habits, and automating savings over time Weekly or daily payment plans are a predatory marketing tactic—real wealth is built by delaying gratification and refusing to finance wants as needs. Buy now, pay later isn't a “hack”—it's the same as a credit card, minus visibility, with consequences just as severe if payments are missed. The solution: erase easy credit temptations, automate real savings, and focus discipline on building income, not propping up short-term purchases with debt. “If anybody is offering you weekly payments for shoes, it's because it's a ridiculous idea.” “You haven't earned the right to convenience purchases until you're financially free—build habits, not more recurring payments.” “No one will care for your financial health except you. Take accountability—and avoid the Klarna burrito trap.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️

This MTM Minute is powered by Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. If you're still making business decisions based on what's in your bank account instead of what God already told you, you're not leading, you're defaulting. In this unapologetic episode of the Legacy-Led CEO series, Funded By Conviction ,  Dr. Darnyelle unpacks the bold truth: you are not funded by revenue, you are funded by conviction. Learn how code-switching, collapsing, and pricing from fear are sabotaging your ability to step into seven-figure leadership. This episode is a wake-up call for entrepreneurs who say they trust God but are still waiting for likes before they move. If you've ever questioned your pricing, your authority, or your readiness, this episode will shift you back into alignment, back into obedience, and back into the CEO seat with your birthright in full view. This episode will shift your understanding of what truly funds your business and future. It will call you out of data-driven hesitation and into divine instruction. You'll walk away with a clear understanding of how conviction, not confidence, not capital, not copy, is the currency of a legacy-led CEO. If you've been stuck, questioning, or shrinking, this episode will remind you that your yes to God is more powerful than any no from the world. This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is I lead with conviction so deep, it silences every doubt and dismantles every delay. I no longer ask for permission to be who I was created to be. My decisions are not funded by fear, they are fueled by faith. I am not building for applause or algorithms, I am building for alignment. Even when evidence is absent, I obey. Because I know that God's instruction is my validation. Every move I make echoes through eternity, and my legacy is funded by my yes, not my likes. I move from divine knowing, not convenience, and that changes everything. Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Audit Your Decision Drivers Stop defaulting to data, doubt, or delay. Ask yourself: “Am I leading from God's instruction or my insecurities?” Then course-correct in real time. Build an Entry Point, Not a Discount If your strategy is stalled and your sales have softened, don't slash your prices. Instead, create a spark offer that leads into your signature program without compromising its value. Choose Obedience Over Optics Conviction doesn't need consensus. If God gave you the vision, your job is to obey it. Stop waiting for clarity that will only come through action. Affirm with me: I lead with conviction so deep, it silences every doubt and dismantles every delay. I no longer ask for permission to be who I was created to be. My decisions are not funded by fear—they are fueled by faith. I am not building for applause or algorithms, I am building for alignment. Even when evidence is absent, I obey. Because I know that God's instruction is my validation. Every move I make echoes through eternity, and my legacy is funded by my yes, not my likes. I move from divine knowing, not convenience—and that changes everything. And this week's journal prompts are: I feel most convicted in my business when… The area where I've been leading from convenience instead of calling is… If I fully trusted God's instruction, I would… And Your Prayer of the Week: Dear God Thank you for reminding us that we are not funded by what we see—but by what we believe. Help us to lead our lives and our businesses with unwavering conviction. Quiet the noise of fear, delay, and self-doubt and amplify your voice inside of us. We declare that we will no longer settle for preference over purpose or convenience over calling. Teach us to trust what you've already spoken. Let us build with boldness, lead with obedience, and walk forward knowing that our conviction is the currency that funds the legacy you've assigned to our lives. We choose to move, not by sight, but by revelation. In your name, we build. Amen.

In this episode, I introduce my book, "Leaders Transform the Art of Influence: Orchestrating High-Performance Teams." This book serves as a guide for team leadership, framed through my music conductor analogy, emphasizing that effective leadership is about influence rather than power or authority. I outline the seven chapters of the book, starting with the transition from a command-and-control mindset to a facilitator approach, where leaders define the vision and invite team input. We explore the importance of building trust and safety within teams, effective communication, and collaboration through my Affirm, Engage, Invite framework. The discussion continues with strategies for empowering team members, understanding individual motivators, and handling common team challenges. The final chapter provides practical tools for team leadership, including templates for vision statements and team norms. Throughout the episode, I share insights from my experience as a conductor, illustrating how leadership should focus on creating an environment where high performance can thrive. I emphasize that people respond to inspiration and connection, not control, and invite listeners to embrace a collaborative approach to leadership. Join me as we explore how to align teams around a shared vision, foster a culture of trust and empowerment, and ultimately transform the way we lead. Let the transformation begin!

On this week's Modern Retail Podcast, senior reporter Melissa Daniels is joined by executive editor Anna Hensel. First they discuss Affirm's new rollout with Apple Pay to provide its buy now, pay later services in store (1:09). Then they unpack the trend of paper coupons making a comeback in some retail environments, with Kroger announcing it has been bringing back paper coupons to help appeal to value-mined shoppers or those who aren't comfortable with more digital savings programs (9:49). Then, on this week's featured segment (18:19), Hensel is joined by Digiday's senior marketing reporter Kimeko McCoy to talk about the rise of retail media. Retailers are in search of more ways to grow revenue, and they are enticed by the size of Amazon's business. So, more of them are looking to build their bonafide media networks. Hensel and Kimeko discuss what is fueling the rise of retail media, what the big challenges are that brands and agencies are facing as they try to sift through what retail media networks make sense for their particular business, and what it will take for more retail media networks to succeed.

This MTM Minute is powered by Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. In this week's, full-length episode, as a part of the BRAND NEW Legacy Led CEO Series, Stepping Into Legacy Led Leadership,  Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon issues a prophetic call to entrepreneurs who know deep down they were not called to be a moment, they were chosen to be a movement. If you've hit high income but still feel heavy, this episode will help you see that the problem isn't strategy, it's identity. You'll discover the four levels of leadership identity (Business Owner, Entrepreneur, CEO, Legacy-Led CEO) and explore the mindset and mantle required to build from eternity, not just economy. If you're done playing small, tired of hustling for visibility, and ready to lead with conviction, anointing, and legacy, this episode is your spiritual recalibration. It's time to stop scaling chaotically and start stewarding strategically. Wealth with permanence requires identity with power—and this episode is your invitation to claim it.  This episode will disrupt your comfort zone, reframe your business identity, and call you out of hiding. It will invite you to step into the full weight of your divine assignment—not just to build a business, but to carry a movement. You'll learn how to lead like a Legacy-Led CEO, how to distinguish your momentum from your mantle, and how to stop building from ego and start building for eternity. This is your wake-up call to stop playing small and lead with strategy, soul, and spiritual conviction. This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is I am not a moment;  I am a movement divinely designed to carry wealth, wisdom, and impact across generations. My voice carries vibration. My vision carries legacy. My leadership is not about validation; it is about visitation from the future. I no longer build for applause or hustle for significance. I build from a mantle that commands inheritance. I lead with divine authority, and I birth blueprints that will outlive me. My alignment, my anointing, and my assignment are no longer up for negotiation. I am the legacy. I am the vessel. I am the movement. Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Redefine Legacy. Legacy is not an amount — it's an assignment. Start building with the awareness that your business is a spiritual blueprint for generations you'll never meet. Audit Your Identity. Take inventory of who you're being in business. Are you leading like a tired operator… or a Legacy-Led CEO? Shift your posture before you shift your plans. Shift from Validation to Visitation. If you're building to be seen or validated, you're building from ego. True wealth comes when you're building from your divine visitation — a God-given mandate to lead. Affirm with me: I am not a moment;  I am a movement divinely designed to carry wealth, wisdom, and impact across generations. My voice carries vibration. My vision carries legacy. My leadership is not about validation; it is about visitation from the future. I no longer build for applause or hustle for significance. I build from a mantle that commands inheritance. I lead with divine authority, and I birth blueprints that will outlive me. My alignment, my anointing, and my assignment are no longer up for negotiation. I am the legacy. I am the vessel. I am the movement.   And this week's journal prompts are: The part of me that is still building from a moment instead of a movement is… When I imagine myself as a Legacy-Led CEO, I feel… I am no longer available for leadership that feels like…   And Your Prayer of the Week: Heavenly Father, Thank you for reminding us that we are not just building businesses — we are birthing blueprints. We surrender the desire to hustle for worthiness and instead align with your mandate to multiply. Help us remember that legacy is not just what we leave behind but what we leave in others. We ask for courage to lead from our mantle, wisdom to steward wealth with peace and purpose, and the grace to stop hiding and fully show up in our assignment. May we be bold, obedient, and faithful stewards of the movement you entrusted to us.   Want more of Darnyelle?

In a season of Stillness, but I'm still here. ❤️‍

Is layaway making a comeback—or has it simply been rebranded as “buy now, pay later”? In this episode of Is This Really a Thing?, Dean Paul Jarley sits down with Jim Adamczyk, Chief Strategy Officer at FAIRWINDS, to unpack the surprising history (and psychology) of delayed payments. From Christmas shopping in the 1970s to today's Klarna and Affirm apps, they explore why consumers keep returning to installment plans, what it means for financial health, and whether AI could reshape how we manage spending and debt. Featured Guests Jim Adamczyk - Chief Strategy Officer, FAIRWINDS Episode Transcription Paul Jarley: If you're as old as I am, you know, things come back around. Today, we're going to talk about an old classic: layaway. Is it back? Is it hiding under a different name? Should you really put your lunch on layaway? Or buy now, pay later. To help me figure this out, I'm joined in this episode by Jim Adamczyk. Jim is a UCF alum, a member of our College of Business Hall of Fame and is the current Chief Strategy Officer at FAIRWINDS. We recorded this podcast live in front of 100-plus students in The EXCHANGE, and we're bringing it to you now. Listen in. This show is all about separating hype from fundamental change. I'm Paul Jarley, Dean of the College of Business here at UCF. I've got lots of questions. To get answers, I'm talking to people with interesting insights into the future of business. Have you ever wondered, Is This Really a Thing? Onto our show. So when I was a kid, my mother spent half of her annual income on Christmas. I'm not kidding. We grew up with relatively modest means, and so she would start shopping in June for Christmas. And the family didn't have a huge amount of money, so she would buy things on what was called layaway. Basically, you went in and you picked out your item and you gave it to the store and you promised to pay for it before you would pick it up and you had to agree to a schedule. And I was driving somewhere a couple of weeks ago and I was listening to the radio and I think it was Burlington Coat Factory was talking about their layaway program. Literally, I hadn't heard about layaway in probably 40 years. And so today Jim and I are going to talk about layaway, what it was, how it differs from Buy Now Pay Later, or rent to own things that many of you might see, why it's on the comeback and what might replace it after that. So thanks for joining us today, Jim. Jim Adamczyk: Always happy to be here. Paul Jarley: What is layaway? Had you ever experienced layaway? Jim Adamczyk: When I was in high school, I was dating somebody and I remember there was a Montgomery Ward in Altamonte Springs and I put a present on layaway. And by the time I got the layaway, I was no longer with the person anymore, so my first experience was: layaway is not great. Paul Jarley: Just so you understand kind of the world we're living in at that time, people didn't have credit cards, people didn't have debit cards. Jim Adamczyk: The main way to pay for it was cash. You took cash out and you went to the store and buy it, but if you didn't have the cash, your primary means of credit was layaway. And it's not really credit in the sense that you don't have the item, so you're kind of saving each month. It's like a savings plan to end up eventually buying something. It's almost like delayed gratification in a world of instant gratification today. Paul Jarley: Right? And if you missed a payment, the retailer put the product back on the shelf. Jim Adamczyk: And so the retailers had to have an entire inventory management system to keep track of all the different items that were on layaway, the customers that had them on layaway and then the payment plans that were in place to pay for those items as well. Paul Jarley: And there would be late penalties, right? I think if you - Jim Adamczyk: Usually you had to put a percent of the item down upfront, 10, 20%, and then if you were late,

 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." The universe itself was spoken into existence. Light didn't gradually emerge—it was commanded: "Let there be light," and there was light. Matter, energy, space, time—all of it came into being through the power of divine speech. This is the blueprint of reality. Every star, every planet, every quantum particle exists because consciousness spoke it into form. The Big Bang wasn't just an explosion—it was the ultimate affirmation, the first and most powerful declaration that set everything in motion. Here's what most people miss about affirmations: You're not trying to convince some external deity to grant your wishes. You're not begging the universe for scraps. You are exercising the same creative power that brought the cosmos into existence. The same divine consciousness that spoke galaxies into being is the consciousness looking through your eyes right now. When you affirm, you're not hoping something might happen. You're declaring what IS happening from the perspective of your divine nature. Every word you speak with intention and feeling is a creative command that reality must obey, because you are not separate from the source of all creation—you ARE that source, individualized and expressing through this unique point of consciousness you call yourself. Think about this: If the infinite intelligence that created over two trillion galaxies is the same intelligence operating as your consciousness right now, what could possibly be impossible for you? What limitation could actually be real when you're connected to unlimited power? The only question is whether you're going to use this power consciously or unconsciously, deliberately or randomly.  

In this episode, I sit with the words of Thomas Merton, an American Trappist monk, writer, and mystic whose reflections on faith, identity, and community continue to resonate decades after his death. Merton warns against what he calls “the heresy of individualism,” the temptation to define ourselves only by what we're not, to build our lives on separation and judgment. His challenge struck me deeply, because I've lived that temptation:  shrinking myself, building an island of “no,” and cutting myself off from connection. In this conversation, I explore what it means to move off the island, to see others as mirrors, and to rediscover the breath of the Spirit by starting with yes.

The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. This week, in our full-length episode, Set Boundaries Like a Boss  I shared tips and techniques to protect your time, energy and millions.  Click the link above to listen. This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I set boundaries like a boss, confidently protecting my time, energy, and focus. I no longer overcommit or say yes out of obligation; instead, I honor what truly serves my vision and growth. My worth is not defined by what I give, but by who I am, and I create space for abundance and success to flow freely into my life. As I enforce my boundaries, I create the structure I need for my business to thrive, and my success unfolds with ease and clarity." Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Set and Enforce Boundaries: Identify areas in your life or business where you feel drained or overcommitted. Start by setting clear boundaries around your time and energy. Practice saying "no" to low-priority tasks and distractions and protect your time for high-leverage activities that align with your growth goals. Schedule Downtime: Treat your rest as an essential part of your business strategy. Block out time on your calendar each week for rest and reflection. This helps you recharge, improve your decision-making, and keep your focus sharp for the tasks that matter most. Align Actions with Priorities: Reevaluate your daily activities and ensure they align with your long-term goals. Focus on what will produce results, and delegate or eliminate anything that drains your energy or takes you off track. This will help you maintain momentum while protecting your energy. Affirm with me: "I set boundaries like a boss, confidently protecting my time, energy, and focus. I no longer overcommit or say yes out of obligation; instead, I honor what truly serves my vision and growth. My worth is not defined by what I give, but by who I am, and I create space for abundance and success to flow freely into my life. As I enforce my boundaries, I create the structure I need for my business to thrive, and my success unfolds with ease and clarity." And this week's journal prompts are: The boundary I need to set this week to protect my time, energy, and focus is..." "Today, I commit to saying no to in order to honor my priorities and growth is…" Before the week is over, I will schedule some downtime to… And your prayer of the week: Heavenly Father, We thank You for the opportunity to grow, expand, and step into the powerful leaders You have called us to be. We ask that You help us establish and honor boundaries that protect our time, energy, and focus. Grant us the wisdom and courage to say no to distractions and yes to the growth opportunities that align with our purpose. We pray for clarity in prioritizing what matters most, trusting that as we set boundaries, we are creating the space needed to receive the abundance and success You have prepared for us. Guide our decisions and help us lead with integrity, purpose, and grace. In Your name, we pray. Amen.

Welcome back to our month-long focus on behavior management in the special education classroom.In this episode, we're digging into the science behind student behavior with special guest Sam Parmelee. This isn't your typical conversation about clip charts and consequences. We're talking about regulation, relationships, and the real reasons behind challenging behavior.We know that classroom behavior can be one of the most overwhelming parts of a special education teacher's job, and often the one we feel least prepared for. That's why this episode focuses on brain-based regulation and a powerful framework that helps educators respond to behavior with clarity, compassion, and confidence.Sam shares what every educator should know about the amygdala, the prefrontal cortex, and how our brains process stress, threats, and relationships. We also explore why so many behavior plans fail (hint: it's not just about the students) and why emotional regulation is just as important for adults as it is for kids.

The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions.   In this week's full length episode of the Move to Millions Podcast, Bleeding Money: 3 Revenue Leaks Keeping You From 7 Figures,  Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon discusses how entrepreneurs can increase their cashflow by addressing the key revenue leaks in their business. She focuses on the importance of pricing strategies, sales systems, and client retention for scaling a business to seven figures. Dr. Darnyelle explains how to optimize your pricing model, implement an automated sales system, and monetize existing clients to maximize revenue without doing more work. Learn how to increase your lifetime client value, stop undervaluing your services, and position your business for sustainable growth by fixing revenue leaks. This episode provides actionable tips to help you elevate your business and start generating higher profits with the current clients you already have.   This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I am a savvy steward of my business, fully aware of the value I bring and the wealth I am creating. I understand the power of strategic pricing, efficient sales systems, and client retention, and I use these tools to maximize my revenue. I am confident in my ability to increase profits by optimizing what's already working in my business, ensuring every opportunity is leveraged for growth. My business is aligned with the seven-figure success I'm destined for, and I continuously optimize my strategies to make more while doing less."   Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Audit Your Revenue Streams: Take a deep dive into all of your current revenue streams. Are there any products, services, or offers that are underperforming or not aligned with your business's growth goals? Evaluate how you can either improve, repackage, or phase out underperforming offers. Make sure each revenue stream is strategically contributing to your bottom line. Implement a Sales System That Runs Without You: Develop a system that allows you to capture, nurture, and convert leads without needing to be directly involved in every step. Automating parts of your sales process will allow you to focus on high-level tasks while still increasing your revenue. Monetize Existing Clients More Effectively: Retaining clients and upselling additional services is often more profitable than constantly seeking new clients. Create offers that allow you to continue to serve your existing clients with additional value, and establish systems to keep them engaged and loyal for the long term.   Affirm with me: "I am a savvy steward of my business, fully aware of the value I bring and the wealth I am creating. I understand the power of strategic pricing, efficient sales systems, and client retention, and I use these tools to maximize my revenue. I am confident in my ability to increase profits by optimizing what's already working in my business, ensuring every opportunity is leveraged for growth. My business is aligned with the seven-figure success I'm destined for, and I continuously optimize my strategies to make more while doing less."   And this week's journal prompts are: I recognize the following money leaks in my business... "To optimize my revenue, I will raise my prices by... "The client retention strategy I will implement to better serve my existing clients is..."   And Your Prayer Of The Week:   Dear God,   We thank You for the abundant opportunities You have placed before us. We ask for Your guidance as we step into the fullness of the value we offer and the revenue we are meant to generate. Help us recognize the leaks in our business and give us the wisdom to plug them effectively. We pray for the courage to adjust our pricing, implement a streamlined sales system, and better serve our existing clients. May our businesses grow as we honor the value we bring and position ourselves to receive the abundance You have planned for us. In Your name, I pray. And So it Is. Amen.   Ready to shift the statistics in your favor by joining the top 4.2% of all business generating 7 figures or more a year?  If you are a small business owner or entrepreneur who has crossed six figures and you're ready to play bigger, we are on a mission to help you make the move to millions.  Visit movetomillions.com to learn all the ways we can equip you to make, move and leave millions.       Want more of Darnyelle?

Establish Clear Financial Roles and Boundaries: Set up recurring financial meetings with your partner to align on household finances, long-term goals, and expectations. Whether it's a monthly check-in or a bigger financial planning session, make sure both parties feel equally involved and empowered in managing the finances.   Affirm with me: "I am a success from the bedroom to the boardroom.

The simple act of asking boldly can open doors you never imagined. Learn how speaking your desires with clarity creates powerful shifts, aligns opportunities, and reminds you that what you want is waiting for you. Asking can feel scary, whether it's requesting help, an opportunity, or even just declaring what we want to the universe. I've learned firsthand that the simple act of asking boldly creates ripple effects that we can't always see immediately. This episode is about the courage to speak your desires clearly, the trust to release the “how,” and the magic that unfolds once you do. Action Plan: - Make bold asks daily: Speak or write your desires out loud with clarity and confidence. - Get specific: State exactly what you want, whether it's a number, opportunity, or connection. - Release the how: Focus on the “what” and let the timing and method work themselves out. - Create a bold ask list: Keep a running list of things you want to request so you're ready when courage strikes. - Affirm your worthiness: Remind yourself you are already enough to receive what you desire.

In a season of Stillness, but I'm still here. ❤️‍

When your identity fuses with what you produce, burnout is inevitable. This episode helps high-capacity humans recalibrate from performance to presence — before their purpose gets buried under pressure.If the results stopped, would you still know who you are?For high performers, that question feels risky. Because somewhere along the way, “doing well” became the same as “being worthy.”In this episode of Identity-Level Recalibration, we're exploring what happens when performance starts shaping identity — and how that slow slide leads to invisible burnout, fractured self-trust, and quiet resentment.Here's what we unpack together:Why success often deepens the approval trapThe subtle difference between identity-fused performance and healthy excellenceHow “helpfulness” and “achievement” become self-protectionWhy burnout is often a symptom of disconnection, not overworkWhat to learn from Anne Morriss' recalibration after public failureWhy celebration is more than a feel-good tool — it's a psychological exit ramp from overidentification (See Episode 38)How to spot identity foreclosure — and where we covered it previouslyIf you've built a life on results, this conversation will feel both tender and clarifying. Because you're not your wins. And when your identity is secure, your leadership becomes sustainable.Micro-Recalibration:Ask yourself: If this project fell apart — would I still know who I am?Let it lead to a deeper recalibration: What do I want to be true about me that isn't tied to output?For leaders:Think of someone you lead who's quietly attaching their worth to performance.Affirm who they are becoming — not just what they produce.That's how we build cultures of identity, not burnout.Need help seeing what you've outgrown?Download the Misalignment Audit in the show notes.The offer?
