What if everyday traders finally had access to the same kind of market intelligence hedge funds have used for decades? In this powerful episode, we sit down with Jamar James, founder of DCG Trader, to unpack how AI is completely reshaping the future of trading — and why the old way of learning markets is broken. Jamar isn't another social media "guru" selling screenshots and hype. He built an AI-powered trading ecosystem designed to help ordinary people think and execute like professionals. His platform, the DCG Mastermind Scout, delivers institutional-style market reports, sector rotation scans, and actionable trade setups from simple commands. At the center of it all is his revolutionary concept: The Operator Mindset. Instead of emotionally chasing trades, Operators use AI-validated intelligence to make smarter, more disciplined decisions. It's a complete shift in how people approach wealth-building in today's markets. In this episode, we discuss: Why most retail traders keep losing money How AI is leveling the playing field between Wall Street and Main Street The difference between "trading" and becoming an Operator Building an AI trading engine from scratch — without a finance degree Why transparency is becoming the most valuable currency in trading education The collapse of trust in the guru economy How Jamar proves his system live instead of posting cherry-picked screenshots If you've ever felt like the market wasn't designed for people like you, this conversation may completely change your perspective. This episode is for: ✔ Aspiring traders ✔ Entrepreneurs interested in AI ✔ People tired of fake financial influencers ✔ Anyone curious about the future of investing and automation

By day she's a full‑time nurse and devoted mom, and by night she commands two dynamic ensembles: Roots of the Soul—her evolving blues‑rock‑R&B outfit—and Miss Freddye's Home Cooking Band, a genre‑bending crew that serves up everything from gospel to jazz, country, and classic rock.In this conversation we'll explore:The roots of the blues—Clarksdale vs. Memphis and the lore of Robert Johnson.What the title “Pittsburgh Lady of the Blues” means to her personally.How music helped her navigate two cancer battles and chronic stage fright.Her ever‑growing musical palate—from classical piano to heavy metal, jazz, and beyond.The behind‑the‑scenes struggles of a performer who still gets nervous at 15.A dream she's still chasing: mastering the bass guitar.And a handful of fun lightning‑round revelations—her favorite live song (“Slipping Away”), the biggest crowd she's ever played (Picklesburg), and a surprising future plan to open a barber shop.Stay tuned as we dive deep into Miss Freddye's story, her empowering anthem “Lady of the Blues,” and the heart‑fueled music that keeps her moving forward. Whether you're a blues devotee, a fellow survivor, or simply someone looking for a lift, this episode is a reminder that when words fall short, the music always speaks.Website:https://missfreddye.com

Ryan Robertson advocates for missionaries and churches to prioritize global cities as harvest fields. Growing up in multicultural Toronto where he openly shared the gospel with Sikh, Hindu, and Muslim classmates, Robertson demonstrates that cities are natural gathering places where diverse peoples converge. Since Babel's dispersion, humans have migrated toward cities rather than away from them, making urban centers strategic locations for gospel witness and discipleship. Reassess your church's mission strategy to include the strategic importance of reaching unreached peoples gathering in global cities. Scripture: Genesis 11 (Babel) Topics: Global cities, Urban missions, Cultural diversity, Gospel witness, Church strategy

Before we talk craft or contracts or query letters, we need to talk about something that will shape everything else on this journey.Humility.Not the kind that shrinks back and whispers, I have nothing to offer. And not the kind that charges forward thinking, I already know what I need to know. Both will quietly sabotage the work before it ever reaches a reader.The Two ExtremesSome of us feel a deep sense of calling. God may have put this book on our hearts. But a divine assignment doesn't exempt us from the learning curve. God can call us to write a book and expect us to grow in the craft. Both things are true.Others are drowning in insecurity. That hesitation can feel like humility, but sometimes it's just fear wearing a disguise.Here's the line worth sitting with:Confidence doesn't mean we have nothing to learn. Humility doesn't mean we have nothing to offer.What Teachability Actually Looks LikeWhen someone critiques our writing, something in us flinches. It feels personal. But that resistance, if we let it run things, will keep us small.Proverbs doesn't soften this: “Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid.” (Proverbs 12:1)And here's a practical reality: if sharing our words with a trusted friend feels terrifying, what will it feel like to publish a book for strangers?A Few Next Steps* Pray and journal. Ask God to show you where pride, in either direction, is shaping how you see yourself as a writer.* Learn the industry. Let yourself be a beginner. That's not weakness; it's wisdom.* Find someone to read your work. Start thinking about who in your life could offer honest, caring feedback.One More ThingIf mindsets are getting in the way of your writing, The Christian Writers' Mindset Makeover is a free resource that walks through six common struggles and the biblical truth that meets each one.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Born Scrappy I sit down with Michael Lion, Former Owner of Philipp & Lion and Former Consultant & Chairman at Sims Metal Management, for a masterclass in what really happens when it all goes wrong and what you can learn from it.Michael's career is one of the industry's most extraordinary stories. He entered the business at 17, built Philipp & Lion into one of the world's largest non-ferrous scrap traders, pioneered copper trade routes into China in the late 1970s, and operated at a scale most traders only read about.Then in April 1991, it all came crashing down. What followed was years of rebuilding and the lessons he brought into an 18-year career at Sims Metal Management, where the controls he put in place got every penny back through the global financial crisis.This isn't theory. These are lessons bought at enormous personal cost, shared with the kind of honesty that only comes from someone with nothing left to prove.In this episode, we talk about:

The Joan Barry Scandal and FBI OrchestrationChaplin's life took a tragic turn during a volatile relationship with an aspiring actress named Joan Barry, who once held him at gunpoint. Barry later claimed Chaplin was the father of her child, leading to a high-profile paternity suit and a Mann Act indictment for transporting her across state lines. Although blood tests definitively proved Chaplin was not the biological father, a California jury ruled against him, forcing him to pay 18 years of child support. Barry eventually claimed the FBI had fomented the case to destroy Chaplin's reputation, a campaign fueled by hostile gossip columnists like Hedda Hopper. Guest: Scott Eyman. (4/8)1908 LA

Welcome back to the Shared Practices podcast.In this episode of Ask George, we're diving into a question we hear all the time from aspiring owners: How do you build a real business instead of just buying yourself a job? Whether you're preparing to purchase your first practice or thinking about expanding into your second or third location, this conversation will give you a clearer, more honest picture of what ownership really looks like today.Dentistry has changed a lot over the years. With more options like DSOs, choosing private practice is no longer the default—it's a decision. And for many, that decision means stepping into the role of an entrepreneur. That comes with real challenges: managing rising staff costs, dealing with insurance reimbursements, and navigating tighter margins, especially in a post-COVID landscape. But at the same time, it creates an opportunity to build something that can grow beyond your own clinical work.So what's the difference between a job and a business? If everything depends on you being in the chair day in and day out, it's still a job—no matter how successful it looks on paper. A true business is built to operate and generate income even when you're not there. That shift in mindset is what separates operators from owners.George breaks down a practical path to get there, including how to build around multiple providers, improve efficiency, and create systems that support long-term growth. From bringing on associates to optimizing your space and team, it's all about creating a structure that doesn't rely solely on you. Ready to take the next step in your dental practice journey?

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Born Scrappy I sit down with Jonathan Ross from John Ross & Sons Ltd., and his son Alex Ross, VP of Ops and Sales. Recorded live at ReMA 2026, this is a candid, unfiltered conversation about what it actually takes to bring the next generation through a fifth-generation family business the right way.Jonathan has spent decades building one of Canada's largest and most respected metal recycling operations. A company now in its fifth generation, which puts it in rare company. Alex came up through the yards at 12 years old, studied accounting and finance at McGill University, and is now stepping into leadership having earned it from the ground up. Together they represent one of the most compelling succession stories in the industry.This episode goes beyond the feel-good family narrative. It's an honest look at the dynamics of working alongside your father, the philosophy behind earning respect before authority, and what the next generation is already bringing to the table that the previous generation didn't see coming.In this episode, we talk about:

Everything is never enough. It's a feeling many of us know well, yet we struggle to name it. In this episode, we sit down with Bobby Jamieson to explore the ancient yet strikingly modern wisdom of Ecclesiastes.Bobby shares how a 2021 sermon series turned into a personal spiritual challenge, forcing him to wrestle with the "vanity" of life and the pursuit of satisfaction. From stories of raising his four kids to deep insights on evangelism and apologetics, Bobby helps us piece together the "big picture" of a book that often feels like a riddle. If you've ever felt the emptiness of having it all or wondered why our modern world feels increasingly lonely, this conversation offers a profound look at how the Bible meets our search for purpose.Bobby Jamieson is the author of several books, including Sound Doctrine: How a Church Grows in the Love and Holiness of God, Going Public: Why Baptism Is Required for Church Membership, Jesus' Death and Heavenly Offering in Hebrews, The Paradox of Sonship: Christology in The Epistle to the Hebrews, and The Path to Being a Pastor: A Guide for the Aspiring.Native Exiles is a podcast from Alderwood Community Church, where we talk about following Jesus in the tension of being in the world but not of it.

Michele DeFilippo is the founder and driving force behind 1106 Design, a full-service book publishing company based in Phoenix, Arizona. With more than 50 years of experience in the book publishing industry — spanning traditional publishing, the rise of indie publishing, and the self-publishing revolution catalyzed by Amazon — Michele is one of the most respected voices in author services today.She founded 1106 Design in 2001 after the publishing industry was disrupted by technology, with a singular mission: to help independent authors publish professionally, keep 100% of their rights and royalties, and produce books that compete on equal footing with traditionally published titles. Her company provides a complete "manuscript to market" solution, including editorial evaluations, copyediting, custom book cover design, interior typesetting, eBook conversion, audiobook production, author websites, and publishing support.Michele is also the author of Publish Like the Pros: A Brief Guide to Quality Self-Publishing, an 88-page guide available as a free download at 1106design.com. She has been featured across numerous podcasts, YouTube channels, and industry publications, and contributes regularly to IngramSpark's blog on self-publishing best practices.Schedule a call with Michele today >>WHO IS THIS FOR?Aspiring authors who want to publish without giving up their rights. Self-publishing authors who suspect they're leaving royalty money on the table. Business owners, coaches, and consultants who want a book as a credibility tool. Anyone pitched a "bestseller package" who wants to know if it's legitimate. Podcasters and content creators exploring long-form publishing as a brand extension.Episode SummaryIn this interview on the We Don't PLAY!™ podcast, Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS sits down with Michele DeFilippo to unpack one of the most misunderstood and financially consequential decisions an author can make: who to trust with your book. Over 22 minutes, Michele delivers a masterclass on the difference between traditional publishers, hybrid publishers, and true service providers — and why that distinction can mean the difference between earning $0.90 per book sold versus $6–$8.The conversation covers the full publishing landscape: how self-publishing emerged alongside Amazon, why so many "publishers" are actually double-dipping on author revenue, how to use KDP and IngramSpark to distribute without a middleman, what makes a book cover convert (and why it matters more than most authors realize), the truth about Amazon "bestseller" badges, the art of professional typesetting, and how to set realistic expectations before publishing.Michele closes with a transparent overview of how 1106 Design works, what authors should prepare before reaching out, and why the best way to make money with a book is often not through retail sales at all.TIMESTAMPS[00:00] — Intro: Michele DeFilippo, founder of 1106 Design, 50 years in publishing[03:20] — Publisher vs. service provider: the distinction that determines your royalties[06:12] — The hybrid publisher double-dip: earning $0.90/book instead of $6–$8[09:11] — KDP and IngramSpark: the two platforms every self-publishing author must know[10:01] — "Pump and dump" publishing: the automated book trap[11:00] — Book covers as the #1 conversion driver: the job interview analogy[12:48] — A/B testing covers the right way: "liking vs. buying"[14:34] — The Amazon bestseller badge: how it's manufactured in 45 minutes[17:08] — Professional typesetting vs. basic formatting: why it matters[20:49] — Using a book as a business development tool, not a retail productMEMORABLE QUOTES"If you have no investment in my book, what entitles you to any portion of my profits?" — Michele [06:45]"There's retail sales, and then there's making money with your book another way — and that other way is usually better." — Michele [20:49]"The question isn't which cover do you like. It's which cover would you spend money on." — Michele [12:48]"A book that earns $2,000 in royalties but generates $50,000 in consulting revenue is not a modest success. It's a high-ROI asset." — Favour [21:10]"Typesetting is working on every line, every word, every paragraph — it's not just formatting." — Michele [17:08]FAQsWhat is the difference between a publisher and a service provider?A publisher acquires your rights and pays a royalty. A service provider charges once and steps away — you keep 100% of all future revenue.What makes hybrid publishers problematic?They charge upfront fees and also take a cut of every book sold — reducing per-book earnings from $6–$8 down to $0.90 on a $19.99 title.Which platforms should every author use?KDP for Amazon and IngramSpark for bookstores and libraries. Both have royalty calculators so you know exactly what you'll earn.Are Amazon bestseller badges legitimate?Most are manufactured in 45 minutes by selecting a low-competition subcategory. A genuine Nielsen bestseller is an entirely different credential.How do authors actually make money with a book?Treat it as a business development tool. Speaking fees and consulting revenue typically far exceed retail royalty income.GLOSSARYService Provider — Charges a one-time fee; takes no ongoing royalties. The author retains 100% of rights and revenue.Hybrid Publisher — Charges upfront fees and also takes a percentage of sales. Double-dips on author revenue.KDP — Amazon's self-publishing platform for print-on-demand paperbacks and Kindle ebooks.IngramSpark — Distributes to independent bookstores, libraries, and international retailers.Typesetting — Professional design of a book's interior: fonts, spacing, margins, and chapter breaks.Print-on-Demand — Books printed individually as orders are placed.

Concert season doesn’t belong to just one generation — and this month on Takin’ A Walk, we’re proving it. Welcome back to Live and Legendary, our April celebration of what happens when artists leave the studio behind and take their music to the masses. Because the road doesn’t care how you got there — it only cares what you bring when the lights go up. And today’s guests bring everything. If you’ve been anywhere near a festival lineup, a stadium stage, or honestly just a packed arena full of people who know every single word — you already know AJR. Brothers Jack and Ryan Met have built something genuinely rare in modern music: a sound that’s completely their own, a fanbase that’s ferociously loyal, and a live show that turns their layered, maximalist production into a full-blown shared experience. They write it, produce it, perform it — and then they go out and own it night after night in front of thousands of people who feel like these songs were written just for them. Because in a lot of ways, they were. This is a band that understands the assignment — on the record and on the stage. Today, brothers Jack and Ryan Met of AJR join us on the Live and Legendary encore episode — and talk about the journey from bedroom producers to headline acts selling out venues across the globe. Takin A Walk Podcast with Buzz Knight : AJR’s Jack & Ryan Met Reveal Their Indie Music Journey from Street Performers to Pop Superstars. From busking in Washington Square Park to dominating Billboard charts – AJR brothers Jack and Ryan Met sit down with host Buzz Knight for an exclusive deep-dive into their extraordinary musical evolution. This powerhouse indie-pop trio opens up about their DIY production secrets, the creative genius behind viral hits, and how three brothers from New York transformed bedroom recordings into stadium-filling anthems.

So you're thinking about starting a holistic nursing business? Amazing. But before you launch that website or invest in a program, there are a few things you need to hear—things most people don't tell you when you're just starting out. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to become a nurse entrepreneur in the holistic space. We'll talk about the emotional rollercoaster, the real cost (in time or money), and the surprising skills you'll have to learn along the way. You'll hear hard-earned truths like: Why “if you build it, they will come” is a myth (and what to do instead) Why passion isn't enough—and what you'll need to learn to succeed Why crying (sometimes out of nowhere) is part of the process And why there's plenty of room for you in this space—even if someone else in town is doing something similar Whether you're in the dreaming phase or already building your practice, this episode will help you feel seen, supported, and seriously prepared. It's not supposed to be easy—but it is worth it. Let's talk about it.

There's ONE mistake I see aspiring Christ-centered founders making over and over — and it's not what you think. It's not a lack of prayer, passion, or skill. It's confusing holy humility with strategic smallness. I call it the “Annointed Amateur” trap.In this episode, I'm breaking down the 4 traps that keep women stuck — the Everywhere Illusion, the Burnout of Invisible Labor, the Comparison Crisis, and the Revenue Ceiling — and showing you the 2026 shifts that change everything. Plus, the one Scripture that gives you permission to be both innocent AND shrewd.3 KEY TAKEAWAYS:1️⃣ If You're Everywhere, You're Fully NowhereThe most successful founders in 2026 are choosing ONE primary platform and doing it with excellence. Strategic Scarcity beats Digital Dilution every time. Email and private communities outperform social media for ROI.2️⃣ Your Messy, Faith-Filled Story Is Uncopyable75% of female executives have experienced imposter syndrome (KPMG 2023). But in a world of AI-generated perfection, your authentic story is the highest-selling asset. An algorithm can't steal your testimony.3️⃣ The Rule of One: One Offer, One Audience, One Message88% of women-owned businesses generate under $100K — often because of scattered offers (NWBC). Everything you build should lead to ONE destination. That's not limitation. That's liberation.RESOURCES MENTIONED:• POOF Waitlist — Power of One Framework®: https://www.sheinherited.com/waitlist • Free Clarity Map™: https://www.sheinherited.com/clarity• Episode 1: Walking Through Fire: How Betrayal Qualified Me• Episode 3 (listen next): The Founder-First Principle• Matthew 10:16 — "Be shrewd as snakes and innocent as doves"• Matthew 5:14 — "You are the light of the world"SUBSCRIBE & REVIEWIf this episode was your wake-up call, take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts (go to the "Show Page not the Episode Page", then scroll down to "Write a Review" or click HERE.)

In this episode, I'm joined again by Nathan Collier, a former sports journalist and our Recruiting Service Operations Director here at Patrick Jones Baseball. Nathan and I chat about what high school players should be doing to continue the recruiting outreach process to college coaches now that school seasons are starting across the country.I explain how I think players can handle pressure during games and why success has to be defined by more than just stats in a box score. I also share practical advice on using social media the right way to create exposure that can help you get recruited. We also get into the role family support plays in the process and some of the most common mistakes I see players and parents make.Connect with Patrick Jones Baseball:On X: @pjonesbaseball
