Quattordici anni dopo c'è di nuovo un italiano sul tetto del mondo: a trionfare in Superbike, grazie al secondo posto in gara-2 a Cremona, è Nicolò Bulega. L'anno scorso si arrese per una manciata di punti a Toprak Razgatlioglu; quest'anno li ha messi tutti in fila: dal compagno di squadra Iker Lecuona (oggi vincitore) a Yari Montella, passando per Sam e Alex Lowes.

A thriving design business rarely starts with a viral post. It starts with a real workflow, a reputation you protect, and a brand people can actually find when they search. We sit down with Stephanie Salvatore of Salvatore Home Design to talk about what it takes to build a cabinetry and remodeling company as a young owner and why the “quality over quantity” mindset shows up everywhere, from hiring to installs to marketing.Stephanie shares her background growing up in a family trade that operated in Venezuela and Aruba, then making the leap to the United States and building momentum in South Florida. We dig into how the business shifted from window treatments to high-value kitchen cabinets, custom cabinetry, and closet design, plus how CNC fabrication and a consistent team help deliver better results. If you're a homeowner planning a kitchen remodel or a design professional trying to tighten your process, you'll hear how design, production, and installation connect in the real world.We also get honest about marketing for contractors and interior design businesses. Stephanie explains how changing a generic company name made Google search visibility easier overnight, why some paid lead platforms produce low-quality calls, and why Facebook Marketplace can unexpectedly drive closet and cabinet projects that turn into long-term client relationships. Then we share a calmer approach to social media marketing: stay current, educate, and aim for consistency instead of daily posting.If you want more practical advice like this, subscribe to Designer Discussions, share the episode with a friend in the design or remodeling world, and leave a review so more people can find the show.For more information on Stephanie Salvatore:https://www.salvatorehomedesign.com/@salvatorehomedesign@realtorsalvatoreTransform your marketing with Designer Discussions Academy.

Send us Fan MailHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul. I am delighted to welcome this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast, Lesley Carter, the creator of Bucket List Publications. This episode is particularly special for two reasons. First, Lesley represents the last great guest of the many I have been able to reach who was featured in my last cruising book, The Joy of Cruising Again, to be a guest on The Joy of Cruising Podcast. Bucket List Productions' chapter was featured in a section called, Cruisers Just Like You and Me…Sort Of. The second reason Lesley's episode is particularly noteworthy is that The Joy of Cruising Podcast teaser recorded 3 years ago, https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/12172473. In that eight-minute introductory episode, I unabashedly called Lesley, “The Most Amazing Traveler I've Ever Met.” Speaking in superlatives like that is sure to spark some pushback. I can't do justice to Lesley's bio in a few minutes. Read her feature in The Joy of Cruising Again amzn.to/3lAfyON and get a glimpse into the incredible life she leads. Or read her upcoming autobiography, Chasing Wonder, and get the full story. Let me just read you one sentence from her chapter in The Joy of Cruising Again. “She has piloted a fighter jet; gone diving with great white sharks; driven Indy cars, jumped out of planes, and sailed a tall ship to Antarctica as part of the crew…Lesley is a passionate world traveler, having visited every continent and over 150 countries, often accompanied by one or both of her children. (Athena and Max).” Since it has been over three years, I asked Lesley what she and her family have been up to since we last spoke. Lesley told me, “Athena took a year away from school and did school virtually. We traveled to 32 countries that year and went on an AIDA cruise for a month. We also went with Running on Waves yacht/cruise around the Greek Islands. Athena and I got PADI certified in Hawaii so we could dive together, and we are going on a live-aboard in October in the Maldives. I wrote and published a book with Simon & Schuster Canada that will be released in May. Max started kindergarten last year and he's doing well socially. Athena started high school this year.  We still travel as much as possible. We try to do at least one major trip a month with smaller trips in between. Last year, we visited Singapore, Maldives, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Romania, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, and a few others. We have the following trips coming up: Maldives in October; Cook Islands in November; Quebec City in December; Finland in January; Colorado in February; Aruba in March.Do you have a dream car?

Tammy Eagle Bowling was 41, healthy, and diagnosed out of nowhere after a routine mammogram caught what blood work and a clean physical missed. She'd never even heard the word metastatic before a scan of her liver changed her diagnosis and her life in one phone call. Eleven years later, she's still here, raising her daughters, and channeling everything she's learned into Light Up MBC, the campaign she now runs that lights up landmarks around the world every October 13th in pink, teal, and green.In this conversation, Tammy walks us through her diagnosis story, the drug she started on when it was brand new to the market, and how she turned her own advocacy into a global campaign that's raised over $2.7 million for metastatic breast cancer research through MetaVIVOR. We talk about why so little research funding goes to stage four disease, what it's like watching landmarks from the Philippines to Aruba light up in solidarity, and how she developed the EAGLE method to help herself and others build resilience.Follow Tammy: @eaglemethodLight Up MBCWatch live on October 13th, find a landmark near you, or start a team:https://lightupmbc.orghttps://lightupmbc.metaviver.orgFollow the campaign: @lightupmbcHeather was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer at 26 and has now been living with the disease for more than 25 years.

In this episode of Cruise Conversations, we're joined by listener Kelsey to recap her 14-night back-to-back cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Adventure of the Seas, combining an 8-night and 6-night sailing from Port Canaveral.Kelsey is no stranger to Royal Caribbean. These sailings marked her 19th and 20th cruises with the cruise line, earning her Diamond Plus status before turning 30.

She also gives her take on Royal Beach Club Paradise Island, which impressed her enough that she's already booked it again. We also dive into the logistics of staying onboard for a back-to-back cruise, including the turnaround-day process, keeping the same cabin for both sailings, and even an interesting Diamond drink voucher perk that comes with doing consecutive cruises.

Donna traveled with her husband and two teenager kids, ages 13 and 15, plus her sister's family, including her 18-year-old nephew, for a summer 2026 adventure cruising round-trip from Seattle.We're talking about what it's like to cruise Alaska with teenagers, what they loved about Anthem of the Seas, how to pack for unpredictable Alaska weather, and the excursions that made this trip unforgettable — from whale watching in Sitka and riding the White Pass Railroad in Skagway to seeing Dawes Glacier and visiting a summer musher's camp in Juneau.

Jenn from the Kids Travel Tales podcast is sharing about a 4-night sailing on the Disney Wish with her husband and two daughters (ages 5 and 7) and the decision to go all in on Concierge Level.They paid about $3,000 more for the Concierge upgrade, but after a dining request hiccup and realizing they weren't actually using many of the perks, Jenn started wondering: Is Disney Cruise Line Concierge really worth the extra money?We break down exactly what you get with Concierge Level, from early boarding and the private lounge to priority booking and theater seating, plus where Jenn felt the experience fell short.

We just got back from nine days in Florida. It was the first non-sports vacation we had taken in three and a half years.That number stopped me cold when I said it out loud. Not that we hadn't gone anywhere — we'd been everywhere, for tournaments. But a trip that existed for no reason other than to step away? Three and a half years.The trip got built around Christopher, who is a Chiefs fan, and a preseason game against the Bucs on August 22nd. Beach in Treasure Island. A Rays game. The Bucs game in Tampa. Then Orlando — water parks, Discovery Cove, Mickey's Halloween Party. Somewhere in the middle of it was a Friday where I sat on a beach from 9:30 in the morning until four in the afternoon and did nothing at all.I have not done that in years. And if you have heard me talk about the trip to Aruba my husband surprised me with for my 40th — the one where I panicked because he didn't check with my office first — you know that stepping away from my firm has never come naturally to me.This time was different, and I want to be precise about why. It wasn't willpower. It wasn't a mindset trick. It was that I have spent the last stretch working hard on delegating — with Kim, in my coaching work — and I have built a team in my office that can run without me standing over it. I checked email. There were a few client matters I handled. But the office did not need me, and I felt that for the first time.The realization on the other side of it is the part I'd want you to take: the work was still there when I got back. Nothing was a crisis. Nothing fell apart. Which means it probably wouldn't have any of the other times either.The second half of the episode is about the other thing that made the trip work — habits. I have built health and wellness habits over years, and this was the trip that proved what they're for. I packed my supplements by the day. I finished my progressive overload program in the hotel gym. And then I made a decision I have never made before: I did not start my next program on schedule. I waited until I got home, until I could do it right. Who is this person, honestly.In this episode:Why "I can't step away" is usually a team problem, not a discipline problemThe delegation work I've been doing — and the version of CEO I'm still building towardWhat actually happens when you leave: the honest inventory of what broke (nothing)How built habits let you travel without falling off — and why flexibility is the habit, not the enemy of itThe phone lockers at the water park, and the difference I could see in my kids within hoursIf you own the business and haven't taken a real break in years, this one is for you. Send it to someone who needs to hear that the world will keep spinning.

It's a Family Matters kind of episode!

In deze aflevering van De Nieuwe Wereld gaat Jona Walk in gesprek met Jacco Vroegop, directeur van het ziekenhuis op Aruba en een van de zeldzame critici van het coronabeleid op bestuurlijk niveau.Samen blikken zij terug op de coronaperiode in het Caribisch deel van het Koninkrijk. Hoe ging Aruba om met de eerste golven, de economische klap voor het toerisme en de druk op de zorgcapaciteit? Jacco vertelt openhartig over zijn verzet tegen vaccinatie- en boosterdrang, de strijd voor lichamelijke autonomie, de druk vanuit het Nederlandse ministerie van VWS en hoe politieke financiële steun werd ingezet om beleid af te dwingen. Ook bespreken ze de invloed van de NCTV, de maatschappelijke uitsluiting door de 3G-pas en de lessen die we moeten trekken voor een volgende crisis.--------------------Steun DNWMaak het geluid van de Nieuwe Wereld mogelijk.

The HPE-Juniper combination may create stronger technology options, but it also changes the competitive map for enterprise networking. Customers that once viewed HPE, Aruba and Juniper as distinct sourcing alternatives need to reassess how consolidation affects channel strategy, roadmap decisions, pricing leverage, and future flexibility. A broader supplier relationship can simplify operations, but it can also create dependency if the commercial structure makes it harder to compete, reduce or unwind parts of the technology estate. In this 10-minute episode of Staying Connected, Tony Mangino is joined by TC2's Larry York to discuss what the HPE-Juniper transaction means for enterprise customers and how they can protect leverage by revisiting supplier alternatives, asking roadmap questions early and negotiating portfolio deals with future options in mind.

Last Thursday I had a real estate closing at my old office — and I ended up sitting in a chair I sat in for eleven years, at the firm I left in 2019.I hadn't been in that chair since December of that year. My kids were born during those years. So were the nanny disasters, the 4 a.m. workouts, and the stretch I can only describe as drowning with a career and three little kids. Sitting there again, all I wanted was five minutes with the woman who used to sit there.That, plus a conversation with Kim on our Legacy League mastermind call, put the same topic in front of me twice in one week. And August — the deep breath before September's tidal wave — is exactly the right time for it.So I'll say it plainly: work-life balance is a lie. The 50/50 split — fully present at home, fully focused at work, everything humming — is a fictitious ideal. Chasing it made me feel like I was failing at everything, at a time when I was actually doing the work and doing it well.What's real is seasons. Some pull you toward home: the winter everyone is sick, the childcare that collapses overnight, the spring calendar that swallows you whole. Some pull you toward work: a federal trial in Manhattan, a jury trial in February, an acquisition that turns your firm upside down. I've lived all of them. Both kinds are normal. Neither one is failure.In this episode I share the childcare crisis that upended our entire routine, the trip to Aruba my husband surprised me with for my 40th that I couldn't fully enjoy because I was worried about the office, and exactly what I'd tell my younger self — the one taking care of her partner, her clients, her kids, her house and her husband, and nobody else.In this episode:Why the 50/50 model sets working moms up to feel like they're failingThe Grant Cardone line that changed how I think about all of it: "There's no work life and home life. It's just life."Real examples of home-heavy and work-heavy seasons across nearly two decades of practiceThe one thing I dropped for years that can't get dropped in any seasonHow to walk into September without an impossible standardIf this one hits home, share it with a working mom who's holding herself to a standard nobody can meet.Check out my favorite supplements and workouts that keep me on track all year long:https://linktr.ee/lauracatina

In February 1942, five German U-boats under Kapitänleutnant Werner Hartenstein struck the refineries of Aruba, Curaçao, and Venezuela within a single hour, opening the World War Two Battle of the Caribbean — Germany's bid to sever the Allied oil and bauxite lifeline running through the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico. Over the next year, U-boats sank nearly 400 ships, accounting for more than a third of everything the Allies lost worldwide in 1942, and dragged Mexico into the war outright. This episode follows the campaign from Hartenstein's opening strike to the last hunted U-boat sunk off Haiti in 1943 — and the men, on both sides, that history forgot to name.

Gemma Luzzi was collecting a $75-a-week paycheck for walking two dogs when she decided to start introducing herself as CEO. Not because she had a team, or a client roster, or a plan. Because she'd already left one identity behind and refused to build the next one small. This episode is a masterclass in becoming someone before your results catch up. In this episode we dive into:​Why "acting like the CEO" before you have a single client is the highest-leverage move most new business owners never make​How a $75-a-week dog walking business replaced a full corporate income in three months​Why selling a thriving six-figure business came with more guilt than starting it did​How in-person networking events became Gemma's most reliable client and content pipelineFurloughed, Fed Up, and $75 A Week​Gemma spent years in corporate recruiting and HR, was furloughed during COVID, then called back in January 2021 for being too good at her job​She told her boss three separate times she wasn't happy. New responsibilities, then a raise. The third time, her boss said, "That's for you to figure out now"​Every night after a draining 9-to-5, she set a 5-minute timer and researched what she actually wanted, letting the timer run longer each week​She left corporate in November with no business plan, using a booked trip to Aruba as the deadline that would force her out the doorActing Like The CEO Before There Was Anything To Run​At $75 a week walking two dogs, she was embarrassed enough to hide it from people who knew her old corporate title​One blunt question from someone close, "are you actually going to make this work," pushed her to a decision: start acting like the CEO of the company today​She introduced herself as CEO at networking events and wrote SOPs and employee handbooks while she still had exactly two dogs and one client​The business replaced her full corporate income in three months, then scaled to six figures, until 7-day weeks and 15 overnights straight forced her to finally learn to delegateFrom Dog Walking To Discernment-Based Coaching​She sold the business to her own right-hand employee, then sat in a hotel parking lot wrestling the guilt of walking away from something that looked perfect on paper​She rebuilt her identity again, bought a blazer, tried to sound like other coaches online, until she went back to cursing and just being herself​That shift became Profit Partner, her coaching container built on self-trust and discernment instead of one-size-fits-all frameworks​She launched CEO Sessions, in-person networking events in New Jersey that sell out every time and now double as her most reliable client and content pipelineThis conversation is proof there's no such thing as one way to build a business, only the way that actually feels true to you.

Welcome back to The Rotten Horror Picture Show Podcast! Things are a little different this week, as Amanda is out of town, leaving Clay to hold down the fort all by himself. But don't worry—he's not completely alone. Joining him are two longtime friends of the show, Grim Santo, proprietor of the horror-themed bakery Grim Delights, and Listener Kyle, who will no doubt remind everyone that he is the "co-creator" of The Rotten Horror Picture Show—a claim that is enthusiastic, persistent, and, as always, entirely non-legally binding. Together, the trio square off in a heated game of Horror Movie Trivial Pursuit, testing their knowledge of slashers, monsters, sequels, and obscure genre minutiae in an episode that's equal parts competition and chaos.Now, I have to admit something: I've never understood the appeal of trivia games. Everybody gets so excited to answer questions they either already know or don't know. Where's the suspense? Where's the giant wheel? Personally, I've always been a Wheel of Fortune person. Spin the wheel! Buy a vowel! Hope you don't land on Bankrupt! That's entertainment. On Jeopardy! they're all standing there pretending it's perfectly normal to answer every question with another question. If I went to the grocery store and the cashier said, "That'll be $42.17," and I replied, "What is forty-two dollars and seventeen cents?" they'd ask me to leave.So while Clay, Grim, and Kyle are battling over horror trivia, I'm over here wondering why nobody's trying to solve "R _ B E R T E N G L U N D" for a new dining room set. Grim can sweeten the competition with haunted pastries from Grim Delights, Kyle can continue campaigning for official co-creator status, and Clay can try to keep the whole thing on the rails.Me? I'll be at home hoping someone wins a lovely trip to Aruba... preferably without having to answer who directed The Texas Chain Saw Massacre first.Be sure to check out Grim's dark delights over at https://www.grimdelights.shop/And follow Clay and Amanda down the rocky road of horror sequels at patreon.com/thepenskyfile

SmarTrak.ai Turns Cisco Data Into Partner Growth, Podcast Cisco 360, AI, refresh cycles, and multivendor migration are creating new openings — and SmarTrak.ai says partners have a timely opportunity to grow more strategically. “We help them manage their practice, grow their practice, and increase their profitability around it,” says Ted Lee of SmarTrak.ai. In this Technology Reseller News podcast, recorded following Cisco Live, Doug Green speaks with Ted Lee of SmarTrak.ai about the company's expanding role in helping Cisco partners turn Cisco data into actionable business intelligence. Lee describes SmarTrak.ai as a platform built to help Cisco partners manage their Cisco practice by ingesting data from Cisco APIs and other sources. The goal, he says, is to give partners better visibility into customer environments, including hardware assets, software, services, service contracts, subscriptions and enterprise agreements. For end customers, SmarTrak.ai provides visibility into Cisco infrastructure and spending, helping organizations optimize their environments while giving partners a more strategic way to support long-term customer retention. The discussion focuses heavily on Cisco 360, one of the major themes at Cisco Live. Lee says SmarTrak.ai announced a Cisco 360 module designed to help partners understand how they can perform under the program, identify opportunities to improve their scores, and increase profitability with Cisco. “We announced at Cisco Live that we had a 360 module that we are releasing that gives predictability into how they can perform, how to optimize it,” Lee says. “Since we have their entire estate with every one of their customers globally, we can then give them opportunities with which they can raise their scores in order to increase their profitability with Cisco.” Lee also points to a larger market moment for Cisco partners. With major refresh cycles, end-of-life events, new AI-enabled products and changing customer infrastructure requirements, partners have an opportunity to move from reactive selling to more strategic planning. SmarTrak.ai is also putting that intelligence directly into the hands of sales teams. The company announced a mobile application designed for sellers and solutions engineers who are meeting customers in the field, giving them access to forward-looking intelligence around sustainability swaps, end-of-life replacements, AI replacement SKUs and other Cisco-driven opportunities. “Sales reps are not sitting at their desks,” Lee says. “These partners are out with their customers, and we are putting this wealth of intelligence in the hands of their sales reps and their solutions engineers.” The podcast also covers SmarTrak.ai's multivendor migration capabilities. Lee notes that customer environments are rarely Cisco-only. Partners often encounter Juniper, Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet, Aruba, Ruckus, HPE and other installed platforms. SmarTrak.ai's migration platform allows partners to ingest those install bases and build forward-looking roadmaps for when it may make sense to replace other platforms with modern Cisco solutions. Lee says the platform can help customers budget, help partners quote more effectively, and help move opportunities toward higher-level Cisco buying programs such as enterprise agreements. The conversation also touches on audit readiness. Lee says SmarTrak.ai has helped partners pass CX Expert and advanced audits by providing the visibility and health scoring needed to support certifications, partner status, rebates and incentives. “We are a full Cisco practice engine to help them take advantage of the wealth of data and opportunity in front of them and turn it into revenue and profitability with the end customers,” Lee says. AI is also part of the SmarTrak.ai story. Lee says the company was founded in early 2023, as large language models were becoming more widely accessible, and recognized an opportunity to use AI against Cisco's large data universe. SmarTrak.ai is SOC 2 Type II and is pursuing ISO 27001 certification, Lee says, emphasizing that the company is “security first” while using AI to help partners analyze data faster and identify new sales opportunities. Lee describes the result as “agentic lifecycle intelligence,” enabling partners to generate forward-looking Cisco practice plans, budgets, replacement strategies, enterprise agreement eligibility, and takeover opportunities across large customer bases. “One of our customers has nearly 10,000 Cisco customers,” Lee says. “They can view any customer in the world with a few clicks of their mouse, and they can create a five-year forward-looking internal or external Cisco practice plan.” The podcast offers a look at how SmarTrak.ai is positioning itself as a Cisco partner growth platform: helping partners make Cisco data more usable, make customer conversations more strategic, prepare for Cisco 360, manage refresh cycles, and turn infrastructure intelligence into recurring revenue opportunities.

This week, we're joined by Amika Every, an elite gymnast from Aruba who is making history as the first Aruban gymnast to commit to competing in college gymnastics. In May, Amika announced her commitment to Southern Connecticut State University. Shortly afterward, we had the chance to chat with her about what led to that decision and how she first discovered college gymnastics. We also talked about life in Aruba and some fun topics, including her mom's bread shop, which is apparently pretty well known on the island.Thank you to our monthly Patreon supporters: Lee B, Cookiemaster, Happy Girl, Erica S, Semflam, Amy C, Maria L, Becca S, Cathleen R, Faith, Kerry M, Derek H, Emily, Sharon B, MSU, Kimberly G, Lela M, Mara L, Jenna A, Alex M, Dana, Lidia, Maria P, Alicia O, Cristina K, Hayley B, Bethany J, Kentiemac, Marni S, Betny T, Emily C, Cathy D, Lisa T, Libby C, Thiago, Debbie, Taryn M, Amy M, Jamie S, Chuck C, Kaitlin, Susan P, LFC_Hokie, Ella, Kay, Julie B, Austin K, Jane, Sarah, Amy, Stephen S, Johanna T, Alison S, Alberto D, Kristina T, Abigail W, Jennifer K, Kate M, Naomi S, Claudia L, Erin L, Thomas B, Lauren D, Kihika M, Beth C, Amy, Renee PM, Ryan V, Brandon H, Okcaro, Tyler, Paola, Heather, Kate, Danielle, ALittleUnderRotated, Lacy, Dana C, Grace, Pat G, Lexi G, Laura N, Kathy, Katie A, Róisín, Megan J, Emily D, Britton, Ry Shep, Reyna G, William A, MB, Jackson G, Stella, Ulo F, Noah C, Melissa H, Alexis, William M, Susie, Leslie G, Catherine B, Laura L, Katy S, Kathy M, Kathy S, Okcaro,  JD B, Cookiecutter, SuniFan, Caroline M, kcmojojojo, Sammy S, Fabio B, Lacie M, Sara G, Kerry H, Leah D, Margaret G, Molly, ClemsonTigersFan, Lisa B, Sarah M, Grace M, Laura A, Justin D, Jas, Kendrick C, Rich A, Ty T, Nick S, Becky E, Annsley M, Melody M, Stacey M, Erica H, Kathy, Teressa, Angela C, Bridgett C, Ashley D, Whitney J, Shelly A, Erika B,DFP, Lisa M, & Samantha T!

Nicolo Bulega continues on his merry way to a first Superbike World Championship. The Aruba.it Ducati star has all but secured his MotoGP future and another hat-trick, this time at home in Misano, has shown once again that the Italian is head and shoulders above his rivals. On today's Paddock Pass Podcast Steve and Gordo breakdown the action from Round 7 of the WorldSBK season while also assessing Scotland's opening match int he FIFA World Cup! Our men in the paddock take their time to getting around to the winner by looking at the fight for third in the standings and how injuries have impacted BMW's outlook on the season before talking about the frustration of finishing second for Iker Lecuona.

A butterfly farm in Aruba. A chrysalis full of goo. And one strange biological detail scientists call ""imaginal cells"" — the secret blueprint hidden inside the dissolving caterpillar that decides what it becomes next. Lance Wallnau says the same hidden blueprint is sitting inside YOU right now — and most believers will die without ever activating it. What if the ""stuck"" season you're in isn't a setback... but a cocoon? Lance unpacks Convergence Theory and Constraint Theory — the behavioral science (developed by Israeli physicist Eliyahu Goldratt) that explains why 80% of called people never reach the assignment God put them on earth to fulfill. And what are the 3 hidden numbers behind every $100 million operator — and the master teacher Jesus modeled? In this episode: • The ""imaginal cell"" revelation God showed Lance at a butterfly farm — and why you can't fly until you find the right people to agree with what's inside you • The 4 phases of convergence: Sovereign Foundation → Spiritual Formation → Gift Discovery → Life Maturing → Convergence (and why most ministries crash in stage 4) • The Doldrums — the spiritual ""no wind"" zone that breaks 80% of called leaders • Why your CONSTRAINT — not your gifting — is what's actually capping your altitude (the sandbag principle) • The 93% / 80% / 50% formula behind every $100M CEO — and why Trump operates exactly this way (most people totally misread him) • The Sergius Paulus pattern: why Paul's FIRST convert after being sent out by the Holy Spirit was a Roman political ruler — and what that means for the seven mountains mandate today • The ""5 Questions From Mastery"" download Lance got during a massage in the Caribbean — and why wisdom isn't the answer, it's the question • Why a 95%+ achievement drive will actually destroy you (and how God forces the Sabbath reset) This isn't motivational. This is the prophetic + behavioral data that explains why some believers fly and most never leave the chrysalis.

The first half of the WorldSBK season is in the books and Steve and Gordo get you up to date with the latest news from inside the paddock as Nicolo Bulega continues his relentless drive to a first Superbike title. The Italian is still perfect for 2026 with 18 wins from 18 starts but Sunday's Superpole Race saw him pushed harder than at any point thus far. His harder rear tyre proved the difference maker but, as ever, Bulega found a way to win. What must Iker Lecuona be thinking? The Spainard, 15 times a runner-up finisher this year, is hunting for his first WorldSBK victory. He's hurting too because he knows how close he keeps coming to that success. His reward for his hard work will be seen this weekend in MotoGP where he'll replace Alex Marquez. Outside of the Aruba.it Ducati riders there was plenty to talk about but Gordo's conversations with Tommy Bridewell have certainly left an impression. The Englishman had his best finish of the season, fifth position in Race 1, and is making the most out of his Ducati V4R to reap some good results.
