    Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Stop Working on Your Life (Do This Instead) August 21, 2025 | Episode - 5164 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Scott shares wisdom from an unexpected roadside conversation during his North Carolina motorcycle trip. When a young rider asked for life advice, Scott delivered three game-changing insights that'll flip your perspective on personal growth. This episode tackles the biggest mistake people make when trying to improve their lives. You'll discover why working harder isn't the answer and how focusing on less actually gets you more of what you want. Featured Story During a motorcycle stop in North Carolina, a 25-year-old rider approached Scott with a simple question: "I'm working on my life. Do you have any advice?" What followed was an impromptu coaching session that revealed three powerful principles for real transformation. Scott's response surprised the young man and challenged everything he thought he knew about self-improvement. The conversation covered why most people stay stuck and the counterintuitive approach that actually works. Important Points Stop working on your life and start working on yourself—you are both the problem and the solution. Embrace doing what you love even when you hate parts of the process, because meaningful achievements require effort. Apply the 80/20 principle by eliminating busy work to focus on the 20% that truly moves your life forward. Memorable Quotes "You are the biggest roadblock you've ever known. You can't block me anywhere near as good as I can block me." "Everything you want external to you, internal to you, everything you want around you comes when you start working on yourself." "More is on the other side of less. It's impossible for you to get everything you want at the same time." Scott's Three-Step Approach Get specific about what you want instead of asking generic questions that get generic answers. Dedicate time daily to working on yourself through learning, reading, meditation, or reflection. Eliminate 80% of your current busy activities to focus on the 20% that truly serves your goals.

    What happens when ordinary people meet the extraordinary? In Strange Light, author Edson Freeman gathers riveting firsthand accounts of lives upended by events that defy explanation — UFO encounters, near‑death experiences, psychic awakenings, startling synchronicities, and mysterious lights dancing over the Marfa desert.Spanning North America, Australia, the UK, India, and Japan, these personal narratives include prophetic dreams that came true, conversations with departed loved ones, and face‑to‑face meetings with non‑human intelligences. Freeman lets each witness speak in their own voice: no sensationalism, no dismissal-just the raw, unfiltered moment when the boundaries of consensus reality give way.Readers curious about consciousness studies, paranormal phenomena, and fringe science will find an empathetic yet pragmatic exploration of the questions mainstream culture struggles to ask. If you appreciate the investigative rigor of Leslie Kean, the human warmth of John Mack, or the sense of wonder in Chris Bledsoe, Strange Light invites you to rethink what you thought was impossible.BioEDSON FREEMAN is an IT veteran whose day job revolves around pinning down how-did-that-happen questions inside missioncritical systems. Raised in suburban Ohio on a steady diet of Douglas Adams and mediocre sci-fi, he grew into a firm empiricist, regarding UFOs, near-death visions, and prophetic dreams as curiosities, not convictions. That stance began to wobble in recent years. A series of highprofile leaks and discoveries triggered his curiosity, and after collecting raw, sincere testimonies, Freeman became convinced that “extraordinary claims” sometimes come from unusually grounded witnesses. Strange Light is his first book—a field report from that newly opened terrain. He currently resides in North Carolina, where he balances database tuning with woodworking, vegetable gardening, and the occasional impromptu skywatch. He comes from a long line of Edsons and believes that healthy skepticism and radical wonder can, and should, coexist in the same sentence.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FF65MJ2Xhttps://strangelightbook.com/ https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/ourparanormalafterlifeMy book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP

    Jason Corbett was found beaten to death in his North Carolina home — struck with a baseball bat and a brick. His wife, Molly Martens, and her father, a retired FBI agent, swore it was self-defense. But investigators said the crime scene told a different story: delayed 911 calls, staged details, and a victim who never stood a chance.Both were convicted of second-degree murder and sentenced to decades in prison. But after years of appeals, their convictions were overturned. In 2023, they struck a plea deal, served just over four years, and walked free.Now, with a Netflix documentary reigniting debate, one question remains: Did Molly Martens and her father get away with murder, or was it truly self-defense?

    Today's Dumpster Dive is sponsored by Incogni! Today in the Dumpster, we're diving right into: The midcentury fabulous Highlands, North Carolina, home that Burt Reynolds owned for a decade or so back in the 80s and 90s. It's on the market, so if you need a two-story monolith, a fire-warmed groove pit, or a stone shower, it can be yours for the low, low price of just $3.699M! If you're looking for some bad news about the 70s - both the decade of the last century and that era of life - the recent saga of Daryl Hall and John Oates might hit the spot. The septuagenarians have settled their lawsuits against each other, but it doesn't sound like either is thrilled. In the "stuff we completely missed" column, actress Laura Prepon married actor Ben Foster - Mazel! - and the pair have since divorced. Apparently their prenuptial agreement went a long way toward speeding that process, but both took the opportunity to fire a few reputational shots at the other.  It seems that the Beckham family - England's David and Victoria and their now-adult children - is bending like... well, like any dysfunctional celebrity family might. Son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola renewed their vows sans any Beckham family representatives, while the famously social media clan has kept mum about the Instagram blasts celebrating the event.  We covered the brief marriage of Oscar winner Halle Berry and Atlanta Brave David Justice years ago, but apparently David is still having - and expressing on podcasts - thoughts about that era of his life. Halle seems suitably unimpressed.  Want early, ad-free episodes, regular Dumpster Dives, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more? Join us at patreon.com/trashydivorces!

McQueen shares the origins of his nickname from his BMX days, his North Carolina roots, and his background in professional broadcasting, including work with NASCAR.He explains how his DIY BMX filming ethos, combined with big-network experience, led him to refine the race replay format that has become a cornerstone of U.S. downhill media. The discussion highlights the enormous logistics behind capturing and editing race footage—from assembling crews and cameras to coordinating with regional series—and contrasts his storytelling style with World Cup broadcasts. McQueen's story underscores how passion, persistence, and community collaboration have fueled the growth of U.S. downhill coverage.

    Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Why Getting Out of Your Comfort Zone Is Wrong August 19, 2025 | Episode 5162 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description How many times have you been told to "get out of your comfort zone"? Scott challenges that conventional wisdom with a fresh perspective that'll change how you think about growth. Using his recent motorcycle adventure through Tennessee and North Carolina mountains as a backdrop, he reveals why expanding your comfort zone beats jumping out of it completely. You'll discover the bubble framework that makes personal growth feel natural instead of terrifying. This episode will shift your approach to challenges forever. Featured Story Scott shares his adrenaline-fueled motorcycle journey through the twisty mountain roads of Tennessee and North Carolina. Riding on the edge for seven hours a day with the constant awareness that one wrong move could be fatal, he and his crew lived by one rule: "ride your own ride." This white-knuckle adventure becomes the perfect metaphor for how to approach your comfort zone – push the limits without breaking the bubble. Important Points Your comfort zone is like a soap bubble that can expand without breaking, and staying inside while stretching it is more effective than jumping out completely. Small, consistent steps at the edge of your comfort zone create bigger changes over time than massive leaps that might overwhelm you. Balance between challenge and comfort has restorative value, helping you maintain momentum without burning out. Memorable Quotes "Almost everything you know right now happened because you got out of your comfort zone." "Ride your own ride – don't get pulled out of your comfort zone just to keep up with somebody else." "Go out on the edge as far as you can, staying within your bubble, but don't leave that bubble." Scott's Three-Step Approach Identify one small area where you can stretch just beyond your current comfort level without completely leaving your zone. Practice the "bubble expansion" mindset by taking small, consistent actions that challenge you while maintaining your sense of safety. Remember to alternate between challenge and comfort, giving yourself recovery time to maintain balance and avoid overwhelm. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

    In this episode, we're joined by three advocates who have worked to raise the personal needs allowance (PNA) and improve the quality of life for nursing home residents in their states. The PNA is a small portion of income that Medicaid nursing home residents can keep each month to cover personal expenses such as clothing, snacks, cell phone bills, and other essentials that make life more comfortable. The federal minimum PNA has not been raised since 1987 and remains just $30 a month, less than one dollar a day. While states can set higher amounts, they currently range from $30 to $200 a month, leaving most residents with only $2 to $3 per day for discretionary spending. Join us as we hear from Bill Lamb, a lifelong advocate in North Carolina, along with resident advocates Ray DiFrancesco of New Jersey, and Jeanette Martinez of Connecticut, as they share their experiences raising the PNA in their states and their advice for others working toward the same goal.

    Summer scrambled us, Slushies, from UAE to North Carolina, from D.C. to Scotland and back, from North Carolina to New York City, and to Philly, of course. Phew! Sam has just returned after a month-long residency through the Hawthornden Foundation in Scotland in an actual castle where she worked on her novel. The crew came together on Zoom to discuss two poems by Elvira Basevich, “Beautiful Girls” and “Pallas Athena”. The first poem transports Kathy and Marion to their teenage days on the Jersey shore. For Marion, the ending of the poem with its Beauty in the bathroom mirror, recalls the energy of Ada Limón's “How to Triumph like a Girl”.     The discussion of “Pallas Athena” notes the poem's foresight to mark a memory as it's made, which sends Marion to Wordsworth's Tintern Abbey and has Lisa mis-marking that poem as the one with daffodils. Imagining the future while in the past also reminds Marion of André Aciman's discussion of arbitrage and Tintern Abbey in the New Yorker. We talk about endings, Slushies, and how hard it is to nail the dismount. Last but not least, we celebrate the release of Marion's new book of poems, Gladiola Girls, with a group photo. Be sure to check out the picture to peep how Kathy's chrome manicure matches the book's color scheme.   At the table: Kathleen Volk Miller, Marion Wrenn, Samantha Neugebauer, Lisa Zerkle, and Sebastian Rametta (sound engineer)   Elvira Basevich is assistant professor of philosophy at University of California, Davis. Her first poetry collection, How to Love the World (Pank 2020), was shortlisted for the National Jewish Book Award. Her poems have recently appeared in Pleiades, On the Seawall, Diode, & The Laurel Review. Lately, she's been writing a lot about her father who returned to Russia years ago without saying goodbye.   Website:  www.elvirabasevich.com   Instagram: @elvirabasevich   BEAUTIFUL GIRLS   I used to line up with teenage girls on the boardwalk like oysters on the half shell. We kissed each other  for practice. We guessed how much nakedness we  could fit inside our mouths, swallow whole or spit out.  These are some of my best memories. Sitting on  lifeguard chairs till dusk talking about life.  Dates, gulls, the milky surf came to us, but they  had to climb a ladder to our perch. Bring an offering  of beer and cigarettes. Even then, we admitted few.  Our bodies were a salvation then, a cause for celebration, something new to smell and taste and touch every  morning, the threshold of a pagan's afterlife:  an all-you-can-eat buffet of physical pleasures. All these  years later, even without the hours of applying makeup  in the bathroom mirror, matching mesh crop tops to low risers, taking selfies, I feel so beautiful.  I don't mean that metaphorically, as in Plato's description  of a beautiful soul as a chariot pulled by two winged  horses, but the real, pulsating thing: the Beauty  who looks back from the bathroom mirror and smiles.   PALLAS ATHENA   We tracked deer in the snow, studied philosophy  and mathematics. Like you, I inherited  my father's passions: the love of war, physical beauty,  America's Funniest Home Videos. I can still hear  his laughter in a hotel in upstate New York  on our only family trip. Soviet émigrés with blue hair and adult grandchildren preferred to speak in English and eat hot dogs and hamburgers rather than piroshki and cold cuts with slivers of wobbly jellied fat. We ice skated among pine trees and rooks. Napped in cots before waiting in a buffet line  in a wood-paneled cafeteria. Pallas, that weekend  you took care of me like a big sister.  You showed me a bloom of wildflowers by  the frozen river, a dusk replete with angels,  reminders that this too won't last, but  it will become my favorite memory of my father.  That was your greatest strength: to have  the foresight to remember a moment as it faded.  You didn't judge me when I left all my doors  and windows open and called out to my father,  Come in. That sometimes we don't choose  the angels that we believe in, as a house  does not choose the ghosts who wander its halls.

    In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Jairo Borja, President and CEO of Borja Consulting Group, to explore how he's helping both entrepreneurs and nonprofits scale their impact. Dr. Borja shared details about his 90-Day Mastery Program—designed specifically for coaches and consultants ready to level up—and his curriculum development work with nonprofits focused on entrepreneurship. He also talked about his latest book, DealMaker: How to Easily Raise the Limit of Capital Deals, which has opened new speaking opportunities and platforms to share his knowledge. And yes, we even took a nostalgic detour back to our teenage years, remembering the long wait in line for WrestleMania 3 tickets during a frigid winter. Unexpected Wins from Group Sessions I shared how group coaching sessions often produce unexpected breakthroughs. Many participants, after just 9 weeks, find themselves launching businesses or uncovering opportunities they never planned for. The group environment fosters connection, networking, and accountability—elements that spark real momentum and transformation in a short amount of time. The Power of Accountability and Support in Coaching We dove into the structure and benefits of group coaching—weekly lessons, community support, and ongoing dialogue through platforms like WhatsApp. These elements keep participants engaged and focused. I stressed how small wins—like acting on a downloaded tool or applying a new framework—often lead to big shifts. Group coaching isn't just about content; it's about action and growth, powered by community. And yes, I couldn't resist comparing the coach's role to Paul Heyman's legendary presence in wrestling—because every great performer needs a strategic voice in their corner. Mentorship and Peer Support: Game Changers for Growth We highlighted how peer support and mentorship aren't just nice-to-haves—they're often the missing piece that unlocks major breakthroughs. I shared personal stories where relationships and guidance made all the difference, especially in scaling nonprofit and business initiatives. These kinds of groups provide encouragement, real-time feedback, and actionable insights that accelerate success. Real Estate Lessons from DealMaker Dr. Borja also expanded on his book DealMaker, which chronicles his journey in real estate—from securing a 52-unit property in North Carolina to learning from failed deals in Allentown, Memphis, and Madera Beach. The book outlines strategies for accessing capital—like term loans, business credit lines, and self-directed IRAs—and it serves as a tool to attract coaching clients, enroll members into his "Elevation" program, or draw in passive investors. He also teased a busy speaking schedule, with events in Miami, Atlanta, and more—even during August, a month usually slow for conferences. Building Business Through Clear Communication I shared insights from my own recent speaking engagements, reflecting on the dynamics of in-person versus virtual events. One consistent truth: having a book is a game-changer. It builds instant credibility and creates powerful networking opportunities. I also emphasized the importance of refining your message when pitching for capital—and how being in a group coaching environment sharpens that message and broadens access to strategic resources. If you've read my book, I encourage you to share it with your own mentorship circle. The impact multiplies when we grow together. Why Small Business Still Matters We wrapped up with a discussion on the pivotal role small businesses play in the economy. With half of the Fortune 500 companies from the year 2000 now gone, it's clear: agility, innovation, and community matter more than ever. Dr. Borja announced the launch of his next program cohort kicking off in late July or early August, and he's welcoming new participants.

    The long-awaited "Big Beautiful Bill" has finally passed, and it's reshaping America's construction and housing landscape in ways both expected and surprising. Donnie and Eric dive deep into this massive legislation to unpack what it really means for contractors, developers, homebuyers, and the future of housing affordability.As rain continues to plague construction schedules across the Carolinas, Donnie shares invaluable insights about an unexpected side effect – widespread bathroom ceiling mold caused by malfunctioning vent fans. This practical advice alone could save homeowners thousands in unnecessary roof repairs when the real culprit is a simple damper issue.The heart of the conversation examines the BBB's most impactful provisions. Contractors will celebrate the 100% equipment deduction that's already enabling business expansion, while developers gain advantages through increased Low Income Housing Tax Credits and streamlined permitting processes. The hosts thoughtfully debate whether these benefits will ultimately reach homebuyers or remain primarily with developers.Perhaps most forward-thinking is the provision allowing 529 savings accounts to fund skilled trade education. With associate degrees in construction technology costing just $1,400 per semester at North Carolina tech schools, this opens crucial pathways into trades desperately seeking qualified workers. As Donnie notes, "You have no idea how far you're separated from the rest of the construction population just by being able-bodied, smart, having a valid driver's license, and showing up on time."For those discouraged by the seeming lack of direct assistance for first-time homebuyers, the hosts point listeners toward valuable resources through the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency. The conversation concludes with cautious optimism that while the initial benefits favor developers and production, a stronger construction sector will eventually create more affordable housing options.Ready to navigate the changing construction landscape?

    If you boil it down to its essence, it's simply about what's true and right about the country versus the dystopian vision ushered in under the Obama era. As President Trump tries to break up corrupt money in NGOs, seal the border, secure elections, and make city streets safer for all Americans while attempting to reverse course on the economy - it's a big job. But what he's trying to fix was broken. Intentionally. And it's a tough fact we must face. Guy Ciarocci has written a smart column called "The 7 Deadly Sins of the Left" and it's a helpful breakdown of how the country got into such a mess. More shocking proof has dropped from DNI Tulsi Gabbard that Obama and his executive branch agencies were proof-positive clouding to push a false story to topple Trump. What will come of the Trump/Putin summit tomorrow and what is fostering the anti-Israel chorus amongst some conservatives? Stigall asked former Trump National Security team member Victoria Coates. Plus, you'll meet the coolest new guest we've welcomed in a while.

    October 5, 2000. Roseboro, North Carolina. While his great-aunt is napping, four-year old Tristen “Buddy” Myers, a child with a history of behavioral problems and violent outbursts, disappears from the property of their rural home. Two of the family's dogs disappear alongside Buddy and while they both resurface days later, a massive search effort fails to turn up any trace of the child. Over the years, investigators explore a number of different leads and debate whether Buddy could have been abducted or died of exposure in the woods, but there is no conclusive evidence pointing in any direction. On this week's episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a tragic unsolved missing children's case.

    On February 21, 2022, 25-year-old Aaron Cody Fortner disappeared from Jackson County, North Carolina. At the time, he was staying at a property owned by his grandparents. He made a couple of phone calls to his grandparents in the early morning hours that seemed off, but they weren't sure what to make of it at the time. When Aaron's sister, Kourtney, spoke to her grandparents later that morning, they asked her if she had heard from him. She said she hadn't, and they proceeded to tell her about the phone calls. Kourtney was concerned enough to drive out and check on her brother. When she arrived, things didn't feel right. A door Aaron always kept locked for safety reasons was unlocked. Kourntey went inside, and Aaron was gone. One thing that stood out was that it was a mess. Just the day prior, their mother had visited, and everything was tidy.That left his family to wonder what happened between the time Aaron's mother last saw him and when he disappeared. Where could he have gone, and why did it seem like something had disrupted his world overnight? His family began calling Aaron's name, searching the surrounding area, and quickly contacted law enforcement to report him missing.More than three years have passed, and Aaron's loved ones are still searching. Along the way, they have uncovered strange and unsettling clues, but so far, none have led them to Aaron.If you have any information about the disappearance of Aaron Cody Fortner, please contact the Jackson County Sheriff's Office at (828) 586-8901 or the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation's Western District at (828) 330-4700.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramTwitterPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
