From the outside, the Coleman family looked like a shining example of suburban perfection, but what happened inside their Illinois home tells a story so disturbing, it defies belief. This isn't just a case of murder, it's about control, image, and a man willing to go to chilling lengths to protect a reputation. The twists in this story don't just shock… they haunt.

In this episode of the Young Dad Podcast, host Jey Young speaks with Dr. David Marcus, a clinical psychologist with over 40 years of experience. They discuss the importance of emotional connections in parenting, the concept of a 'soothing presence,' and how parents can better communicate with their children. Dr. Marcus emphasizes the need for parents to understand their own emotional responses and the impact of stress on family dynamics. He provides insights into children's developmental assumptions about their emotions and the importance of creating safe spaces for open communication. The conversation also touches on 'emptying out' children to help them manage their emotions effectively, the significance of developing emotional language, and the challenges of peer pressure in adolescence.TakeawaysParents are the agents of change in their children's lives.Children learn emotional responses from their parents' behavior.Creating a soothing presence is essential for effective parenting.Stress can lead parents to regress to their own childhood behaviors.Understanding emotional language is crucial for communication with children.Parents must create safe spaces for their children to express themselves.The process of emptying out children helps them manage emotions.Tweaking parenting skills can empower parents to make a difference.Assumptions about children's emotionality can hinder communication.Peer pressure can be mitigated through open dialogue with parents.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Emotional Connection01:07 Journey into Psychology03:50 The Concept of Soothing Presence07:36 Understanding Internalization and Regression10:41 The Role of Parents in Child Development14:16 Assumptions of Emotionality in Children20:30 Creating Safe Spaces for Communication24:09 The Process of Emptying Out Children28:14 The Art of Soothing Children31:43 Understanding Emotional Depths35:36 The Role of Parents in Emotional Development38:45 Navigating Peer Pressure and Teen Relationships46:22 The Importance of Emotional Language51:03 Advice for New DadsCheck out the Website for Interactive Activity Guides, Resources, Full Transcripts, all things YDP- ⁠⁠www.youngdadpod.com Clink the Link for YDP Deals (Joon, Forefathers &more)- ⁠https://linktr.ee/youngdadpod Want to be a guest on Young Dad Podcast?

This podcast is brought to you by Outcomes Rocket, your exclusive healthcare marketing agency. Learn how to accelerate your growth by going to outcomesrocket.com Far too many women veterans are overlooked, leading to gaps in care, resources, and recognition. In this episode brought to you by Luminary Labs, Wanda Wright, Director of the Office for Veteran and Military Academic Engagement at Arizona State University, shares her mission to advocate for women veterans and improve access to resources. She explains that many women do not recognize themselves as veterans, which, combined with cultural bias and lack of awareness, leads to higher rates of suicide and homelessness compared to men. Director Wright highlights the importance of asking “Have you served?” in healthcare settings and stresses that collaboration among the VA, state agencies, nonprofits, and local groups is essential to provide effective support, especially in rural areas. While progress has been made with more women joining the military and rising to leadership, she emphasizes that continued advocacy and community involvement are crucial to breaking down barriers and saving lives.

Netflix just released Unknown Number: The High School Catfish, and the shocking story behind it is even darker than you realize. A teenage girl and her boyfriend were tormented by nearly 350,000 harassing texts over two years.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the real case behind the Netflix documentary, and the disturbing details you didn't see on screen.

Companion Guide Alert!Enhance your listening experience with our brand-new Assumptions That Destroy Communication Workbook, designed to accompany this episode! This guide will help you transform your communication skills. Grab it now for just $4 at: https://stan.store/masteryourmarriage/p/assumptions-that-destroy-communication-workbookEpisode Overview In this episode, Part 3 of our communication series, Robert and Sharla dive into the hidden power of judgments in our everyday language and how they sabotage the intimacy we crave in relationships. Building on Part 1 (the cost of not speaking up) and Part 2 (three communication goals: mutual understanding, connection, and empathy), we explore why we're conditioned to judge—especially in Western culture—and how this “conflict-escalating” language disconnects us from our partners' needs. Featuring a powerful story from NVC founder Marshall Rosenberg and practical tips from Nonviolent Communication (NVC), this episode offers a roadmap to shift from judgments to observations. Plus, we introduce our new workbook to guide you step-by-step!Key Takeaways - A judgment is any thought or statement that labels or diagnoses someone (e.g., “You're lazy”), implying fault and escalating conflict by cutting off empathy and understanding. - We're indoctrinated into judgmental language from childhood through family (“You're naughty”), media (heroes vs. villains), school (grades), and Western culture's emphasis on blame over needs. - The Rosenberg story from Malaysia highlights how language shapes thought—without a “to be” verb for judging, a culture avoids pathologizing others. - Shift to observations (e.g., “I noticed the dishes were left undone”) to open doors to connection instead of closing them with judgments. - Practice daily with our workbook's exercises to rewire your communication habits!

In this episode, Anna Rose and Tarun Chitra chat with Huijia (Rachel) Lin from the University of Washington to explore indistinguishability obfuscation (iO), often described as the 'holy grail of cryptography'. iO is a powerful primitive that, if fully realised, could have profound implications for privacy tech as a whole. Rachel helps break down the concept for listeners who may already be familiar with ZK, FHE and TEEs, clarifying how iO differs but also some of the similarities in the assumptions upon which it is based. Rachel also explains how it differs from similar concepts: garbled circuits and functional encryption. The discussion covers the evolution of iO research in her work over the last decade, how the cryptographic assumptions have hardened since that time, and what iO can offer in terms of precise, controlled information revelation.

He shares personal experiences from a recent training session and draws parallels to decision-making processes in sales, emphasizing the need for curiosity, concise communication, and understanding team dynamics. Schaeffer introduces the new ABCs of selling, which focus on being curious, concise, and courteous, while cautioning against making assumptions about decision-makers and their authority.Takeaways—Assuming can lead to misunderstandings and missed opportunities.—It's essential to remain open-minded and avoid making assumptions about others' skills or roles.—In sales, decision-making often involves multiple stakeholders, not just the person with the title.—Always ask who else is involved in the decision-making process.—Objections in sales can often be anticipated and addressed upfront.—Effective communication requires curiosity and the ability to listen.—Sales strategies should focus on building consensus among team members.—Avoid using weak language that invites objections.—The new ABCs of selling include being curious, concise, and courteous.—Always be prepared to adapt your approach based on the conversation.Sound bites—"I needed consensus from both."—"Who on your team do you consult with?"—"Assume nothing in sales."Chapters00:00 The Dangers of Assumptions06:03 Understanding Decision-Making in Sales10:56 The New ABCs of SellingUnlock the secrets of sales success by understanding what makes people do the things they do—access your free training: https://wesschaeffer.com/daily12 Weeks To Peak™ starts every month: 12WeeksToPeak.comConnect with me:X -- https://X.com/saleswhispererInstagram -- https://instagram.com/saleswhispererLinkedIn -- http://www.linkedin.com/in/thesaleswhisperer/#TheBJJandBIZPodcast #12WeeksToPeak #SalesTraining #GoalSetting #PersonalDevelopment #GrowthMindset

Do you believe God loves you but struggle to feel it? Or do you wrestle with the need to control everything while believing God is in charge? If you're stuck in the gap between what you believe and what you experience, this episode is for you! We are excited to share this interview because we know it will speak to the common dynamics that show up in our relationships and spiritual journey. Host Austin Conner invites pastor and author Steve Cuss to share about his book The Expectation Gap, offering strategies to help you bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be.   Most of us experience a disconnect between our faith and daily life, which is what inspired Steve to address relational patterns that fuel addiction and spiritual stagnation. Using the Systems Theory, Steve identifies the relational dynamics of: Reactivity, Assumptions, Stuck Patterns and Attempted Solutions as a map for understanding how and why we get discouraged in our faith and disconnect from others.  This conversation also highlights the false needs of Control, Perfection, Knowing the Answer, Being There for Others and Seeking Approval, and how they drive anxiety and block God's comforting presence. You will learn how to cultivate micro-habits that replace chaos and striving with awareness and stillness.  If you want to learn more or find Steve's Life-Giving List, visit stevecusswords.com or read Steve's book The Expectation Gap.  Connect with us & Subscribe to our weekly newsletter!

In 2011, Robyn Gardner left Maryland for what was supposed to be a relaxing getaway in Aruba with a man she barely knew. Just two days into the trip, she vanished without a trace during what he claimed was a snorkeling excursion gone wrong. But from the moment authorities began investigating, nothing added up. As suspicions mounted and disturbing evidence surfaced, one question remained: what really happened to Robyn Gardner on that beach in Aruba?

In this episode of Financial Clarity for Doctors, hosts Corey Janoff and Rachelle Vanderzanden unpack many of the assumptions that are built into financial planning.  This is necessary when you can't predict the future, but how conservative or aggressive your assumptions are can greatly impact your chances of success. Some of these assumptions include: Your projected age of retirement How much money you will need to be comfortable in retirement What inflation rates will be between now and then Investment returns Estimated taxes at different points during your career and retirement How much you will be able to save How much income you will receive from social security   No two projections will look the same.  They all rely on assumptions, because we don't have all the data we need for the next 30, 40, or 50 years.  When you are working through financial projections, it is a great idea to adjust the inputs to see how your assumptions are impacting your plans.  For example, if you adjust your inflation estimate from 2.5% to 3.25%, you will need to save MUCH more or modify your standard of living to reach your goals.  We recommend focusing on the things you can control (mostly your spending and your savings) but also understand how different future outcomes outside your control can affect your plans.   For more financial planning tips from Corey and Rachelle, you can reach out to them at podcast@thefinitygroup.com. They would love to hear your questions and ideas for upcoming episodes. Discussions in this show should not be construed as specific recommendations or investment advice.

This week on Headline Highlights… a TikTok teen who captured national attention mourning her parents' murder is now facing a courtroom battle of her own after being denied bail. Erik and Lyle Menendez learn their fate as they're denied parole after decades of fighting for release. In the case of Emmanuel Haro, prosecutors file charges against his parents. A chilling family tragedy in New Hampshire leaves a community reeling after a mother kills her husband and two children before turning the gun on herself, leaving only her youngest son alive. In California, a woman is found dead in the Angeles National Forest, and the prime suspect disappears into Peru. And in a disturbing case, a father is arrested for fatally shooting his 18-year-old daughter after allegedly plotting to kill his children for more than a year.

Is there any escaping the "Us vs. Them" mindset?

Nick Foster, one of the world's most influential futures designers and former Head of Design at Google X, argues that our imagination about what's next is often shallow, clichéd, and dangerously incomplete.In his book Could Should Might Don't, Foster introduces a powerful framework for rethinking how we approach tomorrow. Instead of relying on sci-fi utopias, doomsday scenarios, or neat statistical projections, he challenges us to combine different lenses—what could, should, might, and don't happen—to build a more rigorous and useful picture of the future.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why sci-fi optimism and dystopian doom both fail as guides to the futureThe four dominant ways we imagine tomorrow—and how to balance themLessons from inside Google X on how bold organizations explore the unknownWhy overconfidence in forecasts blinds us to hidden possibilitiesHow leaders, policymakers, and innovators can think more responsibly about what's coming nextLinks & Resources:Nick's book: Could Should Might Don't (on shelves today, Aug 26!)

Copy and paste content doesn't build a connection. If you want your brand to resonate, you need to go deeper, more human, more emotional, more real.That's executed perfectly by The Last of Us, a post-apocalyptic story that became a global phenomenon not because of monsters, but because of its heart. In this episode, we're taking a closer look with the help of our special guest, Ashley Emery, CMO at VelocityEHS.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from emotional storytelling, breaking traditional formats, and building real resonance with your audience (even in the most unexpected places).About our guest, Ashley EmeryAshley excels in driving growth and innovation in B2B technology organizations, both at the global enterprise and high-growth start-up scale. She holds an Executive MBA and specializes in demand generation and revenue-focused marketing strategies. Ashley has a proven track record of building and leading high-performing marketing teams, having served as Head of Global Campaigns for the Database and Analytics category at AWS, VP of Marketing at Emburse, and most recently, the SVP of Demand Generation at Employ, the parent company of JazzHR, Jobvite, and Lever.What B2B Companies Can Learn From The Last of Us:Story comes before product. In B2B, it's easy to get stuck in the habit of leading with features, capabilities, or technical specs. But as The Last of Us demonstrates, what draws people in is a story they care about, not a list of innovations. Your product may be powerful, but unless your audience understands how it impacts their world or identity, it won't matter. Center the narrative on the customer's journey, pain, and outcome, your product plays a supporting role in that transformation. This shift can completely reframe how you approach content, ads, and even your brand voice. Ashley advises, “Lead with a human-centric storytelling. Don't sell features… the product is the enabler, it's not the hero.”Your audience might not be who you think. “Even if you think you understand your audience, you may not,” said Ashley, who was surprised herself, as she was so drawn to the series. Just as The Last of Us broke out of its presumed “gamer” audience, B2B brands often have unexpected buyers, champions, or influencers they're missing. Assumptions based on firmographics or industry stereotypes can be limiting. VelocityEHS found that their safety-focused customers were actually risk-tolerant thrill-seekers outside of work, which changed how they positioned messaging. This is a call to continuously validate personas, run qualitative interviews, and listen for nuance. Your best buyers may not look like your ICP on paper.The medium shapes the message. It's not enough to have a great story, you have to tailor it to the channel and format. A 60-minute podcast moment doesn't automatically become a good TikTok. Just like a video game plot doesn't translate directly into a TV script, B2B content has to be rewritten for the medium it's living in. That means writing social hooks, designing natively for mobile, and assuming low context. Ian reminds us that, “-if you take an idea that Ashley says in minute 50 of a podcast and drop it onto LinkedIn, and the person has no context at all who this person is or what they do, then the actual insight itself isn't as interesting or valuable.” Meet your audience where they are, mentally, emotionally, and contextually, or risk wasting great content on the wrong canvas.Quotes“Often in marketing, we get scared of emotion. We try to stay very neutral in our language. We don't want to be provocative, we don't want to be bold, and I think we as humans crave that. The show is a perfect example. The boldness, the emotional connection, and the conflict of the characters was really valuable. There's so much raw emotion and connection in the stories that could be told, and not being afraid to tell an uncomfortable story… is powerful.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Ashley Emery, CMO at VelocityEHS.[00:56] Why The Last of Us?[01:42] The Role of CMO at VelocityEHS[02:48] Breaking Down The Last of Us[26:47] B2B Marketing Lessons from The Last of Us[27:36] Human-Centric Storytelling in Marketing[35:16 Understanding Your Audience[38:43] Building an Ecosystem of Content[40:20] The Importance of Star Power[42:14] Embracing Emotional Tension in Marketing[46:11] Final Thoughts & TakeawaysLinksConnect with Ashley on LinkedInLearn more about VelocityEHSAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Welcome to the Heal and Restore Podcast with Randy and Cathy Boyd—where we dive into real conversations that help you heal, grow, and strengthen your relationships.In today's practical and heartfelt episode, we're talking about “Unspoken Expectations: How Hidden Assumptions Hurt Marriages.”Every couple carries expectations into marriage—but not every couple speaks them out loud. Too often, we assume our spouse “should just know,” and when those unspoken assumptions aren't met, they turn into disappointment, frustration, or even resentment. The truth is, it's not always the expectations themselves that hurt us—it's the silence around them.We'll unpack how hidden assumptions quietly chip away at connection, why they so often go unnoticed, and how learning to express them openly can protect trust and intimacy. More importantly, we'll share faith-rooted tools you can start using today to communicate expectations with clarity, listen with empathy, and move toward agreement instead of frustration.If you've ever felt let down because your spouse didn't do what you “thought they would,” or you've struggled with resentment over unmet needs, this episode is for you.If it speaks to your heart, we invite you to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who's ready to strengthen their marriage.Love grows in the light—so let's bring our expectations out of hiding and build a stronger foundation together.

This is a conversation about what happens when the data you've trusted your whole career turns out to be pointing you in the wrong direction. It's about the moment when logic starts to unravel, and real clarity begins ... not in more numbers, but in understanding what the customer truly sees. Michael Ross brings a deep humility to his insight: that the story behind the numbers can be more powerful than the numbers themselves. Michael is one of the most respected thinkers in retail and customer data today. A Cambridge mathematician and entrepreneur, he co-founded one of the UK's earliest online retailers, now advises global brands, and teaches at London Business School. But in this episode, it's not what he knows - it's what he rethought - that will stay with you. --The Unlock Moment podcast is brought to you by Dr Gary Crotaz, PhD. Downloaded in over 120 countries.

A casual conversation at a party turned into a reality check about what we're really seeing on social media.

Whether you're building a business feeling behind because of what you observe online or scrolling as a consumer making assumptions about creator lifestyles, this episode offers the perspective shift to actually like your life a whole lot more.Instagram:⁠@thekrystahuber⁠⁠@thefyx.officialpod⁠⁠@thefitnessfyx⁠APPLY FOR 1:1 COACHING WITH THE FITNESS FYX⁠

Margaret reflects on the common human tendency to imagine how deceased loved ones would respond to current events. Through poignant examples, such as wishing a parent could witness significant life milestones or expressing relief that they are not around to witness troubling times, Margaret explores the emotional complexities associated with these thoughts. These reflections are not merely nostalgic but reveal a deeper understanding of how our memories can create a static image of our loved ones, frozen in time at the moment of their passing. Margaret emphasizes that as time passes, our perceptions of our deceased loved ones may become less accurate. The memories we hold onto are often based on the person as they were in the past, which can color our expectations about how they might react to contemporary events. This realization underscores the importance of acknowledging the fluidity of human experience and personal growth. Just as we evolve over time, so too might our loved ones have changed if they were still present, influenced by their own unique experiences and the shifting dynamics of the world around them. Ultimately, Margaret advocates for a balanced approach to remembering loved ones. While it is natural to want to include them in our lives and honor their memory, it is equally crucial to recognize the limitations of our imaginative projections. By doing so, we can celebrate their influence on our lives without imposing an unrealistic narrative on their character. This nuanced reflection invites you to engage with your memories in a way that honors the spirit of their loved ones while allowing for the complexity of human experience and change.

Ever had an experience where someone made assumptions about your ability to buy before you even had the chance to speak? I recently walked into a high-end car dealership, dressed in designer clothes and driving a luxury vehicle, only to be met with repeated passive-aggressive questions about my budget. Despite showing clear signs of being a serious buyer, the salesperson's assumptions shut down the potential for any real connection.   This situation highlights a critical mistake many coaches make in their businesses. The key to success in sales is simple: treat every potential client with the same level of respect and always deliver your best process, no matter your assumptions. In this episode, I'll share why showing up with integrity in every sales conversation, regardless of the prospect's situation, will transform both your income and your impact.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.
