Ever had a brilliant idea that never made it past your brain? Or watched a dream die because someone poked too many holes in it before you even had a chance to build it?In this episode of Ambitious, George Bryant is back to teach one of the most powerful frameworks I've ever learned. This is the Dream Storming model, originally created by Walt Disney to bring Disneyland to life. We're breaking down the three core buckets (Dreamer, Builder, and Protector), the exact rules for each state, and how to recognize which bucket you naturally live in versus which one you go to when triggered.But here's where it gets really good: this framework isn't just for your business. George and I get vulnerable about how we use this in our long-distance relationship, how it's transformed the way we communicate during conflict, and why understanding someone's dominant state can completely shift the dynamic in your partnerships, friendships, and even with your kids.00:00 Introduction12:25 The Walt Disney Dream Storming Story18:09 Applying the Dream Storming Model33:50 Understanding the Dreamer Bucket34:32 Transitioning to the Builder Bucket35:04 Entering the Protector Bucket35:22 Applying the Dream Storming Process36:02 Facilitating Dream Storming with Teams36:40 The Importance of Discipline in Dream Storming45:41 Interpersonal Applications of Dream Storming50:29 The Power of Divergent Thinking53:31 Recognizing Natural and Triggered States01:05:08 Understanding the Protector Mode01:05:50 Navigating Conversations with Awareness01:12:03 Applying the Framework in Personal and Professional LifeConnect with George: InstagramWebsite  To join the Ambitious Network for free, click HERE.

Ambition, radical self-trust, and intentional joy. This conversation between Rohene Bouajram and Bianca B. King explores what it means for women of colour to redefine ambition on our own terms. Leaving home at 13, later walking away from a successful corporate real estate career, and rebuilding from her “$38 moment” are all experiences that Bianca points back to as a series of catalysts to cross her line into the next version of herself. That experience fueled her mission to help women pursue success with joy, rather than burnout. Rohene and Bianca unpack the difference between ambition and perfectionism, and how women can reframe ambition as a source of self-liberation rather than pressure. This episode reminds us that success and joy can coexist, and radical self-trust is the bridge between ambition and peace.

AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports on the mayoral transition in New York.

Canada's Liberal government unveiled new federal budget plans in the House of Commons in Ottawa on Tuesday, which include a massive spending spree of 280 billion Canadian dollars (€173 billion). The spending is seen as a way to strengthen the Canadian economy after the imposition of steep tariffs by the United States, Canada's most important trading partner. Also in this edition: iconic French glassware cooperative Duralex raises €19 million in a day, just over a year after employees bought back the firm.

"Quietly ambitious and a bit unhinged." Somewhere in the Midwest, a talented young couple is quietly building an escape room empire. Their company, 60 to Escape, has over 12 different escape rooms across 3 locations, a puzzle-filled mini-golf experience, and a haunt so extensive and scenic that it was used as the set for a horror movie called Haunt Season on Amazon Prime. Stephen Kristof literally has entertainment in his blood. His parents owned a family entertainment center, and he grew up bouncing around mini-golf, go carts, and fixing the arcade machines. Growing up, Stephen always wanted to work at a haunt, but he was too young. So at the ripe young age of thirteen, he presented his parents with business plan for opening up his own haunt, and his first venture was born. In the course of running the haunt, they brought in a talented young SFX makeup artist named Stevie Calabrese (now Stevie Kristof). During haunt season, she manages four other artists as they get eighty performers into costumes and makeup in under two hours. Stephen and Stevie met, fell in love, and became "The Steves." They now run their immersive entertainment ventures together, crafting and creating much of it themselves, along with their team of talented folks. If either of them look familiar, you may have seen them on a reality show. Stephen was a contestant on Season 1 of Holey Moley, a zany mini-golf reality competition show, and Stevie was a contestant on Season 9 of Face Off, a special effects makeup reality competition show. I really enjoyed hearing them talk about their commitment to the customer experience, and their dedication to production value and creativity. Their company 60 to Escape was part of the Escape Immerse Explore tour in the Chicago area in 2025.

This one is full of honesty, hope, and so many lightbulb moments for every working mom who wants to feel calm, confident, and in control again.

On this episode, Chris & Koi call up some friends to find out if you can love someone that is not ambitious?

Ambitious people fall into a trap: You've learned from a young age that achievement means love, and so, you chase achievement and other external markers of success only to realize the gnawing void is still there.  Most think their childhood patterns will get dissolved by father time. But the truth is, these patterns adapt to your knowledge, and become masters of disguising themselves.Take, for example, the seductive idea of independence. For ambitious men, independence is really isolation in disguise, which leads to deep loneliness (even if you have an attractive wife, thousands of followers, or are the most popular person in any room).  And no amount of external success can save you from this trap. But connection can.  Connection isn't natural when you've spent your entire life building armor around you. But it is learnable. It is the antidote to loneliness. And it is something that can save a broken marriage.  But first, you have to ask yourself (and be honest): Who knows the real you? The you behind all of your masks?  In today's show, you'll discover why connection is the only solution to isolation and loneliness. And how to reconnect with yourself and others. Listen now. Show Highlights Include: Why ambitious people confuse isolation for independence and slowly fall into the abyss of loneliness (0:38)  How building a company, buying a mansion, and dating beautiful women can make you hide from others and even yourself (4:19)  3 things all human secretly crave for and why success, status, and wealth alone can't fill this void (6:18)  Why childhood patterns don't disappear as you grow up (and how understanding this can save a marriage) (8:06)  How shutting down negative emotions like shame and sadness also prevent you from feeling excitement and joy (11:08)  The "Emotional Suppression to Addiction" pipeline that's one of the most common patterns I see in my office (12:48)  How married men who do "everything right" (but don't actually connect) drive their wife into someone else's arms (13:35)  The "SOAR Pillars" secret for tearing down your emotional walls and feeling genuine connection for the first time in your life (15:38)  4 steps to reestablish your self-connection (18:43)  For more about David Tian, go here: https://www.davidtianphd.com/about/  Feeling like success in one area of life has come at the expense of another? Maybe you've crushed it in your career, but your relationships feel strained. Or you've built the life you thought you wanted, yet there's still something important missing. I've put together a free 3-minute assessment to help you see what's really holding you back.

3. The Rise of FDR and Calvin Coolidge's Contrasting Personas David Pietrusza 1920: The Year of the Six Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt, the ambitious Assistant Secretary of the Navy, was considered only for the vice presidency in 1920, often making mistakes on the campaign trail. His marriage to Eleanor had become strained by his long-term affair with Lucy Mercer, transforming into more of a political partnership. This contrasts sharply with Calvin Coolidge, whose marriage was marked by fidelity. Coolidge, Governor of Massachusetts, was admired for his trustworthiness and decisiveness, traits rooted in his remote Vermont upbringing. The segment also introduces Herbert Hoover, the "great engineer" and humanitarian, who served under Wilson and was so popular that both parties considered him for the 1920 nomination; FDR even proposed a Hoover-Roosevelt ticket. 1929 MARCH 4, DEPARTING FOR THE INAUGURATION.

Analyzing Japan's New Hawkish Prime Minister and the Defense Budget Goal Lance Gatling Lance Gatling analyzes Japan's new Prime Minister, Takayoshi Sado, the nation's first female leader, focusing on her hawkish stance and ambitious defense goals. Sado has committed to raising Japan's defense budget to five percent of GDP, a significant increase that reflects growing security concerns and regional tensions. However, Gatling notes that achieving this goal presents substantial challenges, as the current massive budget is already fully allocated. This would require either borrowing, reallocation, or difficult trade-offs between existing programs, and there remains serious doubt about whether the military can effectively absorb, train personnel for, and maintain such a dramatic increase.

Today, I'm flipping the script on one of the biggest mindset traps working moms fall into - the belief that work and family are at odds with each other. What if that tension you feel isn't a sign that something's wrong but proof that you're living a full, meaningful life? I'll show you how to reframe that tug-of-war into one of your greatest teachers, helping you sharpen focus, build confidence, and make decisions that lead to a no-regrets kind of life. Topics in this episode:The truth about the “competing priorities” mindset and why it's holding you back How reframing work vs. family tension can actually strengthen both Four reasons your career and motherhood work together, not against each other Real client stories, who found peace and focus through this reframe Why mindset work is the foundation of sustainable work-life balanceShow Notes & References:Discover all the details about Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Book your free breakthrough call here: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/book You can watch this episode on YouTube!

This season, it's about ownership. Because ambition doesn't need permission. Welcome to Season 3 of So Ambitious - the award-winning podcast from Pharrell Williams' Black Ambition Prize, hosted by Felecia Hatcher. This season, we're amplifying the stories of founders who are building uninterrupted - from tech innovators to creative entrepreneurs - all defying the odds and reimagining what's possible for the next generation. Each conversation dives deep into the real journey behind ambition: the resilience, the risk, the purpose, and the community that makes it all possible. Because when Black and Hispanic founders thrive, the future does too.

Natalie reflects on being tired of chasing and how it masquerades as ambition, tenacity and persistence. She explores people-pleasing patterns, over-identification with roles, why we believe things must be hard, and how to recognise when you're trying to meet old needs rather than pursuing what's truly aligned with who you are now.   Episode show notes: https://baggagereclaim.co.uk/303 Leave a voice note: https://www.speakpipe.com/baggagereclaim  Support the podcast and leave a tip: https://baggagereclaim.ck.page/products/podcast  'Reclaimed' membership: https://www.baggagereclaim.co.uk/reclaimed/ Work with me: https://www.baggagereclaim.co.uk/consultations/ Baggage Reclaim: https://www.baggagereclaim.co.uk  Shop courses and books: https://store.baggagereclaim.com Sign up for my newsletter: https://www.baggagereclaim.co.uk/newsletter/

For many ambitious founders, bootstrapping is a slow death. After building a profitable, high seven-figure SaaS company for 10 years, Sameer Narkar realized his self-funded model was no longer enough to win. In this interview, Sameer explains why the AI revolution is forcing successful bootstrapped companies into raising funds to move faster. He breaks down his decision to seek investment after a decade of profitability, why he believes thinking about an exit is a distraction from building a great product, and how he plans to use the new capital to "buy growth" by investing in experienced sales teams and partnerships rather than burning cash on ads.

What if the key to unlocking your full potential wasn't just clarity and structure—but a little bit of madness too? In this powerful solo episode, mindset coach Michael Rearden delves into the complex intersection of purpose, perspective, and inner drive, and how embracing your unique version of “madness” can lead to profound personal growth.Rearden unpacks the misconception that purpose must be polished or tied to material success.

If you're seeking clarity, fulfillment, and the boldness to pursue your goals unapologetically, this episode offers a life transformation roadmap rooted in perspective and passion.Key Takeaways ✅ Purpose mixed with a little madness can spark greatness ✅ Shifting your perspective opens doors to personal growth ✅ Embracing your inner “crazy” leads to bold breakthroughs ✅ Material success is not the definition of purpose ✅ Challenges and uncertainty shape your true calling ✅ Connection and contribution build long-term fulfillment ✅ Purpose evolves—don't fear reinvention ✅ Your drive must inspire you before it moves others ✅ Action—not perfection—creates momentum#MindsetCoaching #UnlockYourPotential #FindYourPurpose #Clarity #Growth #MichaelRearden #CoachingInSession #RevenConcepts #PurposeDrivenLife #AmbitiousGrowth #PersonalGrowth #Fulfillment #LifeLessons #MadnessSend us a MessageSupport the showWebsite: www.Revenconcepts.comEmail: Coachinginsession@gmail.com Youtube: @Revenconcepts Don't forget to subscribe, leave a review, and share the podcast with others who would benefit from it!

In this week's episode, I'm talking about something every working mom can relate to—ending the day completely wiped out. You give everything at work and have nothing left for your family or yourself. In this episode, I share 3 simple but powerful practices that will help you end your day feeling lighter, calmer, and more present. You'll learn how to transition intentionally from work to home, release built-up emotions throughout the day, and get ahead of predictable stress triggers so you stop running on empty and finally reclaim your energy and evenings. Topics in this episode:The hidden energy drain of daily context switching and how to create a “work-to-home” transition Why emotional buildup leads to evening exhaustion—and how to release it in minutes How to spot and solve predictable stress triggers before they take over your day The truth about burnout and why exhaustion is not “just a season” How these small daily practices give you back time, energy, and presenceShow Notes & References:Discover all the details about Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Ready to explore if it's right for you?

After an ominous meeting with Thereus Aegir, leader of the Hexcloaks, Caoimhe Wake regroups with Brontë Adelvys and Antistrophe Landrace, fresh from their victorious Beachminton showdown in Seawalk. Caoimhe shares the ultimatum she received from Aegir: Find out whether the recent earthquakes are tied to Castine, Living Metal. Which raises the question: How does one go about investigating a member of the Ennead while he is surrounded by his most loyal followers?  This week on Perpetua: A Roar Across Cenn 02 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.05] NPCs & Monsters [PNMS] I've been waiting to put these in until we had stats, but I guess we just aren't getting those during the early acts. Jimmy Cone & Johnny Cakes [NMJJC] Traits: Arrogant, Ambitious, Competitive, Playful Stats: ???  Attacks: Ace Killer, Back to the Fundamentals, Big Little Bro Backhand, Big Little Bro Beachminton Bash, Classic Comeback Shot, Desperate Dexterous Swing, Dexterous Hit, Final Shot, Jimjam Slam, NORMAL OL' HIT, Patty-Cake Patty-Cake Baker's Lob, Rapid Fire Double Down Super Shot, Slippy Slappy Overhand, Signature Dexterous Hit, Veteran's Return Spells: ??? In-Game Description: Brotherly heirs to the Cenn City dessert empire. Sigh. I don't really get it. Why do they share a character profile page when they clearly have different stats? Why aren't their stats visible even after you beat them in Beachminton. Is their whole concept some sort of reference I don't get? I think this game is pretty funny, but every comedian has some bad jokes.  Kley Kaina [NMKLA] Traits: Skeptical, Mysterious, Just, Vengeful Stats: ???  Attacks: ??? Spells: ??? In-Game Description: Caoimhe's childhood friend, a Poison Elf who has trained to be a doctor. Somewhere along the way, they developed strange allegiances. You know when you watch an anime and you go “I hope that side character gets a whole episode?” That's how I feel about Kley. What's their deal!? Why are they so pissed off about Caoimhe joining the Hexcloaks. And what “strange allegiances” do they have?  Delani Kaina [NMDLK] Traits: Faithful, Brusque, Determined, Demanding Stats: ???  Attacks: ??? Spells: ??? In-Game Description: Kley Kaina's mother and a loyal follower of Castine. On a pilgrimage to Cenn. I wish she wasn't so mean to Kley, but I can't help but like her. It's funny that she has a big crush on Castine, it's sort of like being in love with a Greek God, but I guess that happened in myths too so why not in a game? Thereus Aegir [NMTHA] Traits: ??? Stats: ???  Attacks: ??? Spells: ??? In-Game Description: Leader of the Hexcloaks. “Leader of the Hexcloaks.” That's it!? You couldn't even say “Cruel leader of the Hexcloaks” or “Mysterious leader of the Hexcloaks?” Not saying more makes him even MORE mysterious. And why are his TRAITS hidden? It's not like he's hiding being a jackass, he just is one! Athon, Castine's High Cleric [NMATH] Traits: Devoted, Strict, Punctual, Knowledgeable Stats: ???  Attacks: ??? Spells: ??? In-Game Description: Castine's chief attendant, responsible for the affairs of his Temple. Athon is sort of a mirror. If you choose all the hostile dialog options, he's a real prick back to you. If you choose all the more quiet, humble ones, he'll reflect respect back to you. I'm not sure it really matters if you piss this guy off or not, but if you don't want to get scolded, just be polite and patient. Castine, Living Metal [NMCLM] Traits: Curious, Mercurial, Empathetic, Caring Stats: ???  Attacks: ??? Spells: ??? In-Game Description: Second newest member of the Ennead. Connected to metal and physical damage.  I have some guesses about what “second newest” member of the Ennead means, but that's it for now. Here's my big theory though: There's gotta be some connection between him and Scintero, since Scintero is “Living Bolt” and Castine is “Living Metal,” right?

In this episode of Ambitious, I am joined by Tyler, a self-defense instructor and personal protection specialist with Masada Tactical. Tyler shares her incredible journey of overcoming trauma and reclaiming inner power through Israeli combat training. We discuss the profound transformation that self-defense training can bring, especially for women considered 'too much' or 'aggressive'. Tyler talks about the importance of mental toughness, confidence, and self-trust, and how learning to be both 'soft and savage' can make you feel safe and empowered. We also explore the concept of true masculine energy and the need for strong men who can hold space for a woman's highest potential. This episode will change the way you think about power, safety, and self-trust as a woman.00:52 Introduction 01:35 Meet Tyler: Self-Defense Expert02:32 The Power of Self-Defense for Women04:33 Tyler's Personal Journey and Teaching Philosophy09:31 Understanding the Mental and Physical Aspects of Self-Defense20:50 Reclaiming Power After Trauma38:38 Practical Self-Defense Tips and Techniques50:32 Cultural Assumptions and Safety Awareness51:04 Exploring Masculine and Feminine Dynamics58:39 Training and Self-Defense Techniques01:01:12 The Psychological Impact of Self-Defense Training01:08:33 Encouraging Women to Embrace Their Strength01:22:21 Practical Advice for Starting Self-DefenseResources Mentioned: ​Free videos from Masada Tactical Masada Tactical InstagramConnect with Tyler: ​Instagram​Website To join the Ambitious Network for free, click HERE.To connect with Kate on Instagram, click ⁠HERE⁠.

In this week's episode of the Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms Podcast, I'm digging into one of the most toxic and sneaky thought patterns that keeps working moms stuck — what I call the “no possibility mindset.” You know that feeling when it seems like there's no way out of your current season, job, or chaos? That's it. In this episode, I share how to spot this mindset, why it drains your energy and blocks solutions, and how to flip it so you can start seeing options and taking action again. I tell stories from my clients and my own life (including a parenting struggle that had me questioning everything) to show how powerful it is when you shift into possibility — and what happens when you believe that change is possible. Topics in this episode:What the “no possibility mindset” sounds like — and why it's so toxic Real client stories that reveal how this mindset keeps you stuck How believing in possibility opens up new ideas, energy, and confidence Simple mindset shifts that get you moving againShow Notes & References:Discover all the details about Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Ready to explore if it's right for you?

In this week's episode of the podcast, I'm joined by Alison Fragale, as we tackle the deceptively simple but life-changing question: What do I really want? If you've ever felt stuck, second-guessed your desires, or wondered what's next for your career and life, this episode will give you clarity and direction.

In this week's episode of the podcast, I'm diving into one of the trickiest yet most important questions every ambitious working mom faces: “What do I really want?” If you've ever felt stuck, disconnected, or like your choices have been more about walking through doors that opened rather than creating your own path, this episode will help you shift. I share why this question feels so overwhelming, what keeps us from knowing our own desires, and the powerful process I use with clients to uncover clarity, direction, and regret-free decisions. This is a deep, real, and practical conversation you won't want to miss. Topics in this episode:Why it's so hard for women (especially moms) to answer “What do I want?” The cultural, motherhood, and people-pleasing influences that keep us disconnected from desire The difference between want (head-driven) and desire (soul/body-driven) How to define your personal sense of “rightness” and build your internal compass Real client stories (and my own) of making bold, regret-free career and life decisions Show Notes & References:Discover all the details about Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Book your free breakthrough call: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/book You can watch this episode on YouTube!
