Podcasts about assumptions

In this episode of the Awesome Marriage Podcast, Dr. Kim sits down with bestselling author Gary Chapman for a practical and honest conversation about what it really looks like to keep a marriage growing, not just surviving. They talk about why marriages don't just "stay the same," how couples slowly drift without realizing it, and what it takes to stay emotionally connected over time. Gary unpacks how love languages can shift through different seasons of life, why assumptions create so many problems, and how simple things like curiosity, communication, and daily check-ins can completely change the tone of a relationship. If you've ever felt like you and your spouse are just "off" lately, or you want to be more intentional about loving well, this conversation gives you real, doable ways to start moving back toward each other again.   Episode Highlights: Without intentional effort, connection naturally fades into distance or "roommate mode."  Couples often miss each other because they're expressing love in ways that feel right to them, not in ways that actually land with their spouse.  When couples stay teachable and intentional, even conflict becomes an opportunity for deeper connection.    Quotes from this Episode: Gary Chapman: "Marriage is either going to grow or regress—there's really no drifting in place." "I don't talk about a perfect marriage. I talk about a growing marriage." "Life satisfaction is found in relationships, not in the accumulation of things." "We cannot read each other's minds—you have to ask questions and listen." "The objective is not to win the argument—the objective is to find a solution together." "It's no fun to live with a loser. Why would you create a loser? You're on the same team." "Love has to be communicated in a way that's meaningful to the other person."     Kim Kimberling: "I don't think I'll ever learn everything there is to know about Nancy in a lifetime." "Marriage is an adventure because you're always discovering new things about each other." "If you're not feeling loved, turn into your marriage—not outside of it." "Assumptions in marriage are usually way off." "The distractions we entertain today are often stealing the connection we could be building at home." "There's so much value in the person God put in front of you to do life with." "Small, intentional steps done consistently really do make a difference over time." Time to Talk About it: Where in our marriage are we currently growing—and where might we actually be drifting without realizing it? In what ways am I trying to show love to my spouse, and are those actually the ways they most feel loved? How well do we really ask questions and stay curious about each other instead of assuming we already know what the other thinks or feels? What would it look like for us to build a simple daily rhythm of connection (even 10–15 minutes) to stay emotionally close? Mentioned in This Episode: Awesome Marriage is on Instagram!

Faced with mounting evidence, Taylor offered explanation after explanation, each more unbelievable than the last. In Part Two, dive into the interrogation that exposed her lies, the trial that revealed even darker details, and the sentencing hearing that uncovered shocking behavior no one saw coming.

This week on ShrinkChicks, Em and Jen talk about how assumptions can quietly keep us stuck in relationships, work, and everyday life. From assuming people are upset with us to deciding how conversations will go before they happen, they unpack why our brains fill in the blanks and how those patterns often start as protection.They answer listener questions about mind reading, assuming a partner doesn't want connection, putting off hard conversations with friends, worrying your boss is disappointed in you, and feeling like asking for help makes you a burden. They also get into confirmation bias, cognitive distortions, and why the stories we tell ourselves can feel safer than finding out what's actually true.Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!

AI is everywhere in education right now, but is that the only technology chemistry educators should be thinking about? In this bonus BCCE preview episode, Melissa talks with Resa Kelly about technology in chemistry education, from visualizations and videos to flipped classrooms and AI. What do we actually want students to be able to do in a technology-rich world? How should that shape our teaching?

In Episode 199, the fourth installment of our series, Phil and Paul continue Season 14's focus on The People Advantageby tackling one of the most overlooked realities of leadership and communication: Communication is not measured by what you say. It's measured by what people hear, absorb, and act upon. Building on the DISC foundation from previous episodes, they explore why even well-intentioned leaders often create communication gaps—and how understanding the personalities, motivations, and communication styles of the people around us can dramatically improve connection, trust, and performance. Whether you're coaching a team, leading an organization, raising children, or building a marriage, this episode challenges leaders to move beyond simply talking to people and learn how to truly communicate with them. Specifically, they discuss: · It's Not What You Say—It's What They Hear · Communication is measured by understanding, not delivery · Great leaders focus on absorption, not just expression · Talking To People vs. Talking With People · Many leaders unintentionally communicate from their own perspective only · Real communication requires understanding the listener · The Communication Gap · What leaves your mouth is not always what enters someone else's mind · Assumptions create misunderstandings and disengagement · The Red Auerbach Principle · "It's not what you say—it's what they absorb." · Effective leaders focus on how their message is received · Understanding Your Players, Employees, and Family Members · People process information differently · Communication must be adapted to the individual · The Parenting Parallel · Every child is wired differently · The same message often requires a different delivery · The Danger of One-Size-Fits-All Leadership · What motivates one person may discourage another · Great leaders adjust their tone, pace, and approach · A Recent Example from March Madness · Hard coaching can inspire one athlete and shut down another · Context, relationship, and personality matter · Listening as a Leadership Skill · You can learn a great deal about people by listening to how they communicate · Understanding others begins with paying attention · Learning the Language of Your Team · DISC helps leaders identify communication preferences · Better communication creates stronger trust and healthier cultures · Practice Makes Better · No leader communicates perfectly · Intentional practice leads to stronger relationships and better results If this episode helps you, share it with at least one other person (coach, parent, business leader, spouse, teacher, or player) who would benefit from becoming a more effective communicator. You can also connect with Phil through Darke Leadership Group to learn how DISC training, interaction guides, and team alignment tools can help your team communicate more effectively and perform at a higher level.

In this special Father's Day episode of Anchor + Waves, Erin and Stacy sit down with two fathers for an honest conversation about the assumptions the church often makes about men, dads, and spiritual leadership. These dads with great wisdom and good humor share their wisdom and experiences of marriage and fatherhood: from instilling bravery in our children, to differences in faith-walks, to learning how to paint their daughter's nails. This is an episode for anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed and like they are not enough for their kids. Join us and be reminded that sometimes just our presence and faithfulness is all that is required.

Just days after Thanksgiving in 2018, 29-year-old Kelsey Berreth seemingly vanished without a trace from her Colorado home. At first, her family tried convincing themselves there had to be a reasonable explanation. But as the days passed with no calls, no texts, and no sign of Kelsey, panic started setting in. Inside her condo, everything looked as though she had simply stepped out for a moment and never came back. Her belongings were still there, unfinished food sat untouched, and small details inside the apartment began making investigators increasingly uneasy. Meanwhile, the one person who should have been most desperate to find her, Kelsey's fiancé and the father of her child, appeared strangely calm….If you're new here, don't forget to follow the show for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases!

Key TakeawaysLocation for Flex/IndustrialDon't go “main & main” in the city core (too expensive, competing with retail/office).Target major highways/arterials just outside town, where you can serve multiple submarkets at lower land/building cost.Pricing & StrategyYour all‑in cost/sf (purchase + rehab) must be well below new construction cost (~$120–$150/sf) or the deal won't compete.Quick screen: if all‑in ≈ $100/sf and you can get ~$12/sf NNN, that's about a 12% yield on cost → worth deeper underwriting.Kansas City Example Deal4,260 sf building at $315K (~$74/sf) in Raytown; concept: split into two bays, add another roll‑up door, light rehab.Verified via Google Street View that there's no real loading dock despite the listing.Underwriting Outputs (base case)Assumptions: 25% down, 7% interest, 20‑yr am, 2 tenants at $12/sf NNN, 3% bumps.Results: ~16–17% IRR, ~19–20% annualized cash‑on‑cash, ~2.0x equity multiple over 5 years, DSCR ~1.7x.Risk & Stress TestEven with rents at $10/sf and rehab at $100K, deal still modeled at mid‑teens IRR and solid cash‑on‑cash.But in a bear scenario (lower rents, higher vacancy, worse exit cap), you can lose money → need margin.Capital RaisingRaising capital starts with your existing network:Call people, explain your deal type and target returns, and ask if they'd want to see one.Build a list of soft commitments before you have a live deal.

In this episode of the Culture Eats Everything podcast, Tom Willis sits down with Dr. Stephen Bigelow, an experienced educator and former superintendent who traded Michigan's Upper Peninsula for life and leadership in Salvador, Brazil. Together, they explore the concept of “cultures within cultures” and discuss how living and leading in a completely different environment challenged Stephen's assumptions about healthcare, education, relationships, and leadership itself.Stephen shares how confronting his own preconceived notions opened the door to deeper learning, stronger relationships, and a greater appreciation for cultural differences. The conversation highlights the importance of humility, adaptability, and surrounding yourself with people who challenge your thinking. They also discuss how leadership principles remain universal even when cultural norms, communication styles, and expectations vary dramatically.Click here to buy our book:

The final episode in the Mackenzie Saga. Nearly four years after the crash that killed her boyfriend and his friend, Mackenzie Shirilla continues to insist that she is innocent. And in hours of jail phone calls with her mother, she makes it clear that her stance hasn't changed. As Mackenzie discusses her conviction, life behind bars, and her hopes for an appeal, many listeners have been struck by what they see as a startling lack of accountability. At the same time, a series of text messages between Mackenzie and her father have sparked intense debate online.

Since her sentence to prison for the crash that killed her boyfriend and his friend, Mackenzie Shirilla has largely remained out of the public eye. Netflix's Crash recently introduced the case to a whole new audience, but many of these conversations were never featured in the documentary. Now, with the release of dozens of prison phone calls with friends, a different side of the story has emerged. In these candid conversations, Mackenzie opens up about life behind bars, her hopes for the future, the attention surrounding her case, and the challenges of adjusting to her new reality.

Thom and Jess challenge five assumptions that quietly shape how churches approach evangelism. These beliefs often go unspoken, but they influence priorities and outcomes more than leaders realize. The post Five False Assumptions about Evangelism in Churches Today appeared first on Church Answers.

We all want retirement success. But how do we achieve it? What if the best method is to identify possible *failures* first, and then simply work backward to avoid those failures?  Looking for a financial planner?  → PlanWithJesse.com In this follow-up episode, Jesse completes his inversion-based framework for retirement planning by outlining the remaining risks that can derail long-term financial outcomes, shifting from market and inflation concerns to more personal, behavioral, and systemic threats. He begins with shock spending and long-term care risk, emphasizing the scale and unpredictability of end-of-life care costs and arguing that insurance alone is often insufficient, making realistic cash flow modeling and programs like Medicaid more practical planning tools. He then covers cognitive decline risk, highlighting how reduced decision-making capacity can lead to fraud, mismanagement, and financial error, and recommends safeguards such as legal protections, trusted contacts, and automated, simplified financial systems. Behavioral risk is framed as the danger of emotional decision-making, with mitigation strategies including automation, written investment policies, and reduced exposure to market volatility. Jesse then addresses assumptions risk, warning that small inaccuracies in assumptions about markets, inflation, taxes, or even one's future self can compound significantly in retirement projections, advocating for base rates and disciplined "what-if" analysis. He explores policy, legislation, and tax risk as an unavoidable layer of uncertainty around Social Security, taxation, and healthcare policy, suggesting retirees stress test outcomes without overreacting to speculation. Identity and purpose risk follows, underscoring that retirement success depends heavily on structure, meaning, and social connection, not just financial security. Finally, he introduces "deep risks"—deflation, confiscation, and devastation—arguing that while rare, these systemic threats reinforce the central conclusion that no portfolio design eliminates all risks, and effective retirement planning ultimately comes down to balancing trade-offs and building resilience. Key Takeaways: • Shock spending risk includes large, unexpected expenses that can destabilize retirement plans. • Long-term care is one of the most significant and unpredictable retirement costs. • Cognitive decline can lead to financial mistakes, fraud vulnerability, and poor decision-making. • Behavioral risk stems from emotional and irrational financial decisions. • Assumptions risk arises from unrealistic expectations about markets, inflation, or personal behavior. • Policy and tax risk includes uncertainty around Social Security, taxes, and healthcare programs. • Identity and purpose risk highlights the psychological challenges of retirement. • Deep risks (deflation, confiscation, devastation) are rare but potentially catastrophic. • No single strategy can eliminate all risks—retirement planning is about balancing trade-offs and building resilience.

The deadliest disaster in aviation history was not caused by a mechanical failure… or even by the fog alone.In 1977, two Boeing 747s collided on a runway at Los Rodeos Airport in Tenerife, killing 583 people. But the real story is far more unsettling. Visibility collapsed. Communication degraded. Assumptions survived. And piece by piece, an entire system drifted out of synchronization.This episode examines how trained professionals, working inside a crowded and increasingly uncertain environment, slowly lost the same understanding of what was happening around them.Not just a disaster story. A lesson in how clarity quietly disappears.If you enjoy thoughtful disaster analysis, hidden systems failures, aviation history, and stories that outsmart the obvious, subscribe and join us.#Tenerife #AviationHistory #PlaneCrash #DisasterDocumentary #AnOunceCHAPTERS / TIMELINE00:00 — The Bomb That Started Everything 02:08 — Diversion to Tenerife 02:28 — An Airport Beyond Its Limits 04:31 — Fog and Fragmented Awareness 06:41 — Pressure Inside the Cockpit 08:16 — Assumptions Begin Taking Over 09:57 — Radio Confusion in the Fog 11:47 — “Is He Not Clear, Then?” 13:17 — Collision on the Runway 14:52 — The Lessons Written in Blood 16:47 — Not Just Fog 18:28 — An OunceCOMPANION EPISODE RECOMMENDATIONThe Attack That Wasn't | When the System Was Wrong https://youtu.be/tyhanM96jAYWhy: Both episodes examine:systems degradation incomplete information dangerous assumptions professionals operating inside uncertainty catastrophic risk emerging from fragmented awareness TAGSTenerife disaster, Tenerife airport disaster, deadliest aviation disaster, aviation history, plane crash documentary, KLM 4805, Pan Am 1736, Tenerife runway collision, aviation disaster analysis, aircraft collision, aviation documentary, disaster documentary, aviation safety, Crew Resource Management, CRM aviation, runway incursion, fog disaster, airport disaster, historical disasters, systems failure, communication failure, disaster analysis, airplane documentary, Boeing 747 disaster, Los Rodeos airport, An Ounce Podcast, aviation accidents, air traffic control, aviation mysteries, aviation tragedy

The distance between "Mackenzie Shirilla did something catastrophically reckless that killed two people" and "Mackenzie Shirilla executed a premeditated mission of death" is enormous. The verdict says it was murder. The evidence lives somewhere between those two conclusions — and this conversation is about figuring out where.Shirilla was convicted of four counts of murder for the Strongsville, Ohio crash that killed her boyfriend Dominic Russo and their friend Davion Flanagan. Netflix's The Crash brought the case to a national audience. Robin Dreeke, former head of the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Program, sits down for a full breakdown across three parts — her behavior, the investigation, and the competing versions of truth that everyone in this case is holding onto.Part one unpacks the behavioral evidence — what her threatening texts, volatile relationship, and TikTok persona actually tell a trained analyst versus what the prosecution used them to imply. Part two examines the investigative methodology — surveillance footage that shows a car but not a driver's mind, black box data with multiple interpretations, a bench trial with no jury, and a medical expert who was shut out of court by a one-day filing deadline. Part three confronts the human dynamics — a defendant who says she has no memory, families whose grief demands a specific answer, a fellow inmate who contradicts the documentary's portrayal, and a judge whose role in multiple decisions raises questions about bias.The evidence is real. The question is whether it proves what the verdict says it proves — premeditated murder beyond a reasonable doubt. Or whether assumptions about who Mackenzie Shirilla was filled in the gaps that the evidence left open. This conversation doesn't take sides. It takes the evidence seriously.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

When firefighters responded to a car burning off the side of Interstate 10 in Arizona, it looked like a routine highway fire. But hidden inside the vehicle was the body of 22-year-old Mercedes Vega, and investigators quickly realized this was one of the most horrifying cases they had ever encountered. As detectives dug into Mercedes' final hours, they uncovered a trail of disturbing clues: blood in her apartment parking garage, surveillance footage capturing her last known moments alive, abandoned vehicles, and evidence suggesting she may have been targeted long before the night she disappeared….If you're new here, don't forget to follow the show for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases!

Key TakeawaysLocation for Flex/IndustrialDon't go “main & main” in the city core (too expensive, competing with retail/office).Target major highways/arterials just outside town, where you can serve multiple submarkets at lower land/building cost.Pricing & StrategyYour all‑in cost/sf (purchase + rehab) must be well below new construction cost (~$120–$150/sf) or the deal won't compete.Quick screen: if all‑in ≈ $100/sf and you can get ~$12/sf NNN, that's about a 12% yield on cost → worth deeper underwriting.Kansas City Example Deal4,260 sf building at $315K (~$74/sf) in Raytown; concept: split into two bays, add another roll‑up door, light rehab.Verified via Google Street View that there's no real loading dock despite the listing.Underwriting Outputs (base case)Assumptions: 25% down, 7% interest, 20‑yr am, 2 tenants at $12/sf NNN, 3% bumps.Results: ~16–17% IRR, ~19–20% annualized cash‑on‑cash, ~2.0x equity multiple over 5 years, DSCR ~1.7x.Risk & Stress TestEven with rents at $10/sf and rehab at $100K, deal still modeled at mid‑teens IRR and solid cash‑on‑cash.But in a bear scenario (lower rents, higher vacancy, worse exit cap), you can lose money → need margin.Capital RaisingRaising capital starts with your existing network:Call people, explain your deal type and target returns, and ask if they'd want to see one.Build a list of soft commitments before you have a live deal.

Rory Johnston welcomes legendary energy analyst Bob McNally to Oil Ground Up for a sweeping conversation on the Strait of Hormuz crisis, global oil supply disruptions, and the fragile state of today's energy markets. Bob reflects on decades of experience spanning the White House, hedge funds, and energy consulting while explaining why the closure of Hormuz represents a historic shift in how the world must think about oil security and geopolitical risk. The discussion dives deep into Iran's leverage over global energy flows, the growing disconnect between physical oil fundamentals and financial markets, and why many traders may still be underestimating the long-term consequences of this disruption. Rory and Bob also explore what reopening Hormuz could realistically look like, why inventories and shipping flows remain critical, and how this crisis may permanently reshape investment in global hydrocarbons. From oil demand destruction and rising geopolitical premiums to the future of North American energy dominance, this episode offers one of the most comprehensive macro discussions yet on the evolving global energy landscape.

For decades, cleaning circuit assemblies after soldering was not optional. It was standard practice across the electronics manufacturing industry. Then, almost overnight, that changed. In this episode of Reliability Matters, Mike Konrad takes you back to the origins of that shift. From the widespread use of CFC-based cleaning solvents to the global impact of the Montreal Protocol, this episode explains how environmental regulation led to the rapid adoption of no-clean flux and the removal of cleaning as a standard process step. But that decision came with assumptions. Assumptions based on larger components, wider spacing, and assemblies that were far more tolerant of residues than what we see today. As electronics evolved, so did the risk. Miniaturization, increased component density, and the expansion of electronics into harsh environments have dramatically reduced the tolerance for contamination. And when cleaning was removed, it wasn't just flux that remained. It was the totality of residues introduced throughout the manufacturing process. This episode walks through how those residues, combined with moisture and electrical bias, can lead to electrochemical migration, including parasitic leakage and dendritic growth, often resulting in delayed or intermittent failures. This is the story of how we got here. In Part 2, we bring this discussion into the present. What does “clean” actually mean today? Why did the industry move away from fixed cleanliness limits? And why is cleaning once again becoming a critical part of modern electronics manufacturing? If you've ever asked the question, “Do I really need to clean?” Part 2 will challenge how you think about the answer.

Kevin Hettrich walked into a conference room with a whiteboard full of numbers and a problem no one had fully articulated. QuantumScape's leadership team was discussing how to scale an expensive R&D tool used to produce early battery materials. Hettrich had spent two weeks gathering data, talking with engineers, and analyzing manufacturing economics. Then he laid out the comparison: QuantumScape's current performance, the best anyone had achieved in any industry, and what would ultimately be required to succeed in automotive production. There were “six orders of magnitude” separating the industry benchmark from what the company would eventually need, Hettrich tells us.That moment became an early proving ground for a finance leader who had entered QuantumScape from a background shaped by McKinsey & Company, Bain Capital, and Stanford's joint business and engineering program. Rather than staying confined to finance, Hettrich immersed himself in the company's technical environment. He tells us he would contribute to at least one patent application each year and spent time “changing targets out of that tool” and mixing chemicals alongside engineers.The broader strategy behind QuantumScape has remained equally ambitious. The company's goal is not incremental improvement, but batteries that are “smaller and lighter,” “faster charging,” “longer lived,” “safer,” and “lower cost at the same time,” Hettrich tells us. Today, the company has commercial partnerships with Volkswagen and collaborations with Corning and Murata Manufacturing as it works to commercialize its solid-state battery platform.

Conflicts in relationship — where your assumptions are the invisible thing running every hard conversation you have.In this episode, Georgianna and Steph walk through the conscious and unconscious assumptions we bring into hard conversations — the ones that decide the outcome before the conversation starts. Georgianna shares the prompt she uses with couples to surface what's actually underneath, and walks through her four-category framework: assumptions about yourself, about your partner, about the situation, and about relationships. Steph names the patterns that show up when desperate attachment runs the room — including her own history of trying to get a therapist to fix her partner instead of getting curious about herself.They also work a live somatic practice on air: noticing an unhelpful assumption, feeling it in the body, then choosing a more helpful one and noticing what shifts. The whole practice takes under two minutes. The point is to grow the muscle before you need it — because the nervous system only reaches for what it's already practiced.What You'll Learn:Why "not actively yelling" and "regulated enough to talk" are not the same — and how to tell the differenceThe four categories of assumptions every conflict conversation carries (and prompts to surface them)How your body knows your assumptions before your mind does, and how to tap inThe difference between claiming you're curious and actually being curious — and the physical anchor that closes the gapHow to assume good intentions with discernmentA two-minute somatic practice you can use before any hard conversationResources Mentioned:Somatic Integration Sessions — twice-monthly live body-based practices, where this work happens in communityConscious Relationship Training (CRT) — our 10-week live cohort training, twice yearly.

Assumptions are the part of the plan most likely to be wrong. The plan itself is usually logical. If X is true, then Y follows. The owner has thought through the steps. What he hasn't thought through is whether X is actually true. He's built a sound structure on ground he hasn't tested.

What if the way you see someone could completely change the way you connect with them?Steph dives into one of the most foundational beliefs in coaching: that people are naturally creative, resourceful, and whole. This powerful mindset shift can reshape how we communicate, how we show up in relationships, and how we view ourselves. When we stop trying to fix the people around us and start assuming their wholeness, something shifts. Steph explores how positive assumptions fuel resilience, personal growth, and stronger self-belief, and offers a practical challenge to help you start applying this principle right away.In this episode you'll discover:Foundational belief in coaching: people are naturally creative, resourceful, and wholeImpact of mindset on relationships and communicationApplying the belief in personal and professional lifeThe influence of positive assumptions on success and resilienceYour takeaways:Assuming people are whole and resourceful transforms how you communicate and connect with themShifting your internal dialogue away from "fixing" mode dismantles saboteurs and builds resilienceYou can start applying this mindset today by choosing to see one person in your life as naturally creative, resourceful, and wholeChapters00:00 The Foundation of Coaching: A New Perspective01:29 Embracing Creativity and Resourcefulness in Relationships03:08 The Power of Assumptions in Communication05:22 Influence of Beliefs on Self-Perception07:28 Dismantling Saboteurs: A Path to Empowerment09:02 Challenge: Assume Wholeness in Others

Dr. Nick Epley, PhD, is a professor of behavioral science at the University of Chicago and a leading expert on the science of social connection. We discuss how seemingly small daily interactions with strangers (as well as with people we know) can meaningfully improve our mental and physical health. Dr. Epley also explains how to reduce social anxiety using simple and easily accessible science-supported tools. We also discuss the data on assumptions — both the ones we and others make — and why so often those are wrong when it comes to social dynamics. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
