Le Classique returns to the Vélodrome as Paris Saint-Germain seeks authority on hostile ground, while Olympique de Marseille fights to revive a season descending into crisis. Marseille's aggressive pressure collides with PSG's technical quality in a rivalry shaped by missed opportunities, tactical adjustments, individual battles, and an explosive struggle for emotional control. As the stadium's belief rises and falls with every decisive moment, France's fiercest rivals deliver a contest in which composure, discipline, and ruthless execution separate courage from victory.⚽

Does your dance studio seem to take over more and more of your life as your business grows?In this episode of the Ultimate Dance Business Podcast, Deborah Laws talks about how dance studio owners can start taking back control of their time and create a better work-life balance.As your dance school grows, it can be incredibly easy for the business to become the priority for everything. Family time, time with friends, self-care and even the things you personally want to achieve can end up being squeezed around the studio.Deborah explains how to reverse that pattern by deciding what you actually want your life to look like and then using future blocking to make it happen.You'll discover:• Why your dance studio can gradually start running your life• How to decide what time you feel you deserve for yourself, your family and your relationships• What future blocking is and how to use it• Why blocking out time months in advance can make it much easier to protect• How Deborah managed to find around 10 hours a week for 18 months while running five dance schools, with more than 900 students and 24 team members• Why delegating and reorganising your business can create the space you need• How protecting your time can actually make you more organised and productive• Why the time you create for yourself can disappear again if you don't continue to protect itIf you run a dance school or performing arts business and feel like you're constantly fitting your life around your studio, this episode is about changing that.The goal isn't simply to find more hours in the day. It's about deciding what matters to you and building your business around the life you want to have.Book an evolution call with Deborah⁠⁠ ⁠https://go.dancebusinesslab.com/dance-school-success-planTo find out more about Dance Business Lab and work with Deborah head to ⁠https://dancebusinesslab.com⁠To find out more about working with Deborah through her exclusive Dance Business Lab membership programs follow the links below.Sparks membership - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dancebusinesslab.com/memberships/sparks⁠ Ignite membership - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dancebusinesslab.com/memberships/ignite⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Illuminate membership - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dancebusinesslab.com/memberships/illuminate⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you love the show and you would like to support then why not buy Deborah a coffee simply head to ⁠http://buymeacoffee.com/DeborahL⁠This episode is sponsored by Dance Studio Marketing.You can find out more about Dance Studio Marketing and how you can work with Sally to supercharge your dance business at ⁠https://dancebusinesssolutions.com/social-media-for-dance-businesses/⁠This podcast is produced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Creative Content Studio

Send us Fan MailEver catch yourself saying, “I can't do this” and wonder… when exactly did you start believing that?Because you weren't born worrying about looking stupid, disappointing people, or getting everything perfectly right.Somewhere along the way, you learned.In this solo episode, Alex explores how the words, experiences, and people around us quietly shape the voice we carry into adulthood. The one that says this is too hard. Don't mess this up. What will people think?Our brains are constantly paying attention, looking for patterns and learning what feels safe. And over time, those patterns can become beliefs we don't even realize we're carrying.But what if you could change the conversation?What would become possible if your inner voice sounded less like a critic and more like someone who genuinely believed in you?And what are the little people in your life learning from the way you speak to yourself?The words we repeat become the stories we believe.

Welcome back to the Word on Fire Show. I'm Matthew Petrusek, senior director of the Word on Fire Institute and the host of the Word on Fire Show. Thank you for joining us. Recently, Dr. Tod Worner of The Evangelization & Culture Podcast sat down with Bishop Barron to discuss modern Christian persecution with Bishop Barron's new book, What Do Their Deaths Demand? Now, it's a topic we've explored here on this show, once before. In this new conversation, we'll take a deeper dive into that subject, exploring the specific witness of some of these martyrs, and examining this modern era which has seen more Christian persecution than any other in history. Here to discuss that with Dr. Tod Worner, is Bishop Robert Barron.

I walked into a cigar store knowing absolutely nothing, and what I learned about filling a lighter turned into one of the most practical frameworks I could share heading into Q4. This episode is about what it actually takes to refuel yourself for a strong finish to the year. From the quality of what you consume mentally to the dead weight you need to release before you can move forward, the lesson from a simple lighter applies directly to the way most people are getting in their own way. If you have been running on the wrong fuel or carrying excess into a new season, this one is for you. Key Takeaways Asking a question you do not know the answer to is never stupid. Staying ignorant by refusing to ask is. What you consume mentally, whether it is media, gossip, or toxic relationships, acts as fuel or sludge for your long-term performance. You cannot fill yourself with better inputs until you release the compressed air. Excess meetings, other people's problems, and low-value activities have to go first. Overloading yourself with too many changes at once is why resolutions fail. Small, deliberate bursts of change are more effective than total overhaul. After you refuel and release the excess, pause before you ignite. Rushing into action without letting things settle costs you the results you worked for. Action Steps Audit your weekly schedule and identify at least two recurring activities that are not moving you toward your actual goals, then cut them. Choose one area of mental input, whether it is what you watch, who you spend time with, or what you read, and upgrade the quality of what you are consuming starting this week. Pick one specific change you want to make entering Q4, just one, and take a small deliberate action toward it today instead of building an overwhelming list. Notable Quote You can't feel dumb asking somebody for help, especially somebody that knows what they're doing. The dumb thing is going your whole life saying, I guess I'll never know.

8 1 but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. 2 Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. - John 8:1-2 ESV

We often expect ourselves to know our true purpose or mission in life. Yet, for even those who know their genuine calling early on, distractions, expectations, and life necessities can get in the way. But sometimes that deep yearning--a strong knowing in the soul--just can't be ignored. Yet it's not always easy to break out of the mold, listen to your inner voice, and set out on a journey of your own. So today, we're joined by Dr. Victoria Rader, healer, guide, and spiritual coach, who will help you discover the love, joy, passion, and infinite possibilities that are waiting just for you. They keys to igniting your soul's calling are just a step away!Topics discussed include love, power, purpose, life's calling, destiny, soul mission, compromise, entropy, self-limiting beliefs, disappointment, expectations, quantum physics, emotional freedom, opportunity, fear, change, potential, expansion, contraction, and self-discovery.Please note that this episode contains sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Details: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.

Send us Fan MailWhat If You Don't Have to Get It Right?Remember when you could try something new without expecting yourself to be amazing at it immediately?Somewhere along the way, we got a little more complicated.In this episode, Alex explores what happens when growth gets tangled up with perfection, comparison, and the fear of being judged.You're learning something new. Stretching into a bigger version of yourself. Taking that first uncomfortable step.And your brain says, “Great. Now make sure you don't screw it up.”But what if you approached yourself the way you would a child learning to ride a bike?Bit by bit. Wobble by wobble. Celebrating the progress instead of criticizing the imperfections.Because your brain loves what feels safe and familiar. Growth asks you to leave that behind.Where are you expecting yourself to be at step ten when you're really at step one?And what might happen if you stopped trying to get it right and gave yourself permission to simply be you?You don't need to be perfect. You're learning.

Send us Fan MailWhat if the most productive thing you could do today… is stop doing?For high achievers, that can feel almost illegal.We're wired to solve, fix, plan and push forward. When something isn't working, the instinct is usually: What else do I need to do?But in this episode, Alex and Carol explore a different kind of action: giving yourself just 10–15 intentional minutes to get quiet, check in and actually listen.Because when you stop filling every moment with doing, something interesting happens. You start hearing the thoughts running underneath it all. The inner critic. The limiting beliefs. The resistance that may be keeping you busy… without actually moving you forward.Your brain loves familiar patterns, even when those patterns aren't taking you where you want to go. Creating intentional “me time” gives you space to notice them and begin choosing differently.What might come up if you gave yourself 15 minutes without distraction?And what if that time wasn't selfish or unproductive… but foundational?Sometimes moving forward starts with getting still.

There's a question a surprising number of senior women in tech carry quietly for years: could I actually be a coach? Sometimes it surfaces after the promotion that didn't feel like you thought it would. Sometimes it's the realization that the mentoring conversations are the part of the week you actually love. Sometimes it's simpler: twenty years of hard-won experience, and a growing desire for work that's more yours. In this episode of Leading Women in Tech, Toni Collis takes that question seriously. What a coaching second act really looks like, inside your company, alongside your career, or as the next chapter entirely, what it pays, what it demands, and how to know if it's for you.   What's covered: ➡️  The quiet question — why so many senior women in tech wonder about coaching, and why the instinct deserves more respect than "maybe someday" ➡️  The three shapes of a coaching practice — the internal coach-leader, the portfolio builder coaching alongside her career, and the full second act, and why you don't have to choose today ➡️  What you already have — why decades in tech are an asset most career coaches would kill for, and the credibility math nobody tells you about ➡️  What you don't have yet — the honest gap: mentoring instinct is not coaching skill, and why the leap from "good with people" to professional coaching needs structure, practice, and feedback ➡️  The "can I really do this?" objection — answered properly: no prior coaching experience needed, practice hours built in, mentoring from Master Coaches ➡️  The business reality — what building a paying practice actually involves, and the brand-new How to Build Your Coaching Business / Side-Hustle bonus announced today for the September Ignite Coach Academy cohort ➡️  The timeline — enrollment closes Friday 11 September, cohort starts Monday 14 September, certified and practicing by year end   If the question has been sitting quietly in the back of your mind, this is the episode that takes it out and looks at it properly.   Useful links Ignite Coach Academy — final enrollment for the September cohort closes Friday 11 September: tonicollis.com/ignite-coach-academy Book a complimentary chat with Toni about whether Ignite is right for you: tonicollis.com/lets-chat  

Welcome back to the Word on Fire Show. I'm Matthew Petrusek, senior director of the Word on Fire Institute and the host of the Word on Fire Show. Thank you for joining us. The evolutionary behavioral scientist and public intellectual Gad Saad recently published an influential book entitled Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind. In it, Saad argues that much of the West has, unfortunately, come to embrace a perversely deficient understanding of empathy, twisting the natural and otherwise noble human capacity to feel and respond to other peoples' sufferings into a moral license to upend the moral, economic, and political order. According to the dictates of suicidal empathy, for example, society should prioritize criminals over victims, illegal immigrants over citizens, lawbreakers over law abiders, racial identity over competence, adult sexual expression over childhood innocence, and trans women––that is, men pretending to be women––over real women. Suicidal empathy's endgame, Saad warns, is nothing less than societal ruin and the eventual totalitarian eclipse of the individual. How, from a Catholic perspective, should we assess these claims? Is Saad's characterization of suicidal empathy and its dangers accurate? If so, how should we, as Christians, constructively respond? What role, in particular, should the biblical conception of love play in defining what it means to show true compassion and care for those in need? Here to discuss Saad's book and to explain how authentic Christian charity is—and is not—related to empathy, is Bishop Robert Barron. Topics Covered 00:00 | Introduction 01:40 | Bishop Barron interviews JD Vance 02:45 | How Saad defines "empathy" 04:45 | Saad's argument on the exaggeration of empathy 06:31 | Exploring the concept of "forbidden knowledge" 09:30 | "It will destroy the West"? 11:05 | Connecting wokeism and self-destructive empathy 12:33 | Can we square wokeism's moralizing mandates with its amoral claims? 13:40 | Tracing the movement's origins 16:27 | Mistaking empathy for love 22:01 | Recognizing the fallenness of our emotional lives 27:39 | Does love equate to niceness and kindness? 28:50 | What about "love thy neighbor"? 30:42 | Distinguishing a proper preference for the poor from its unhealthy overemphasis 32:46 | Addressing the Christian impulse beneath the wokeist trappings 34:42 | Listener question: Where was God before time? 36:33 | Join the Word on Fire Institute Links: Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/ NOTE: Do you like this podcast? Become a Word on Fire IGNITE member!

If you've been telling yourself you'll pitch the conference, keynote, or TEDx talk once you feel more confident, I want you to reconsider the order. Public speaking isn't something you do after you become confident. It's one of the ways confidence is created.I'm sharing three practical ways to build real speaking confidence: say yes and get the reps, experiment with different formats and time constraints, and use podcasting to strengthen your ability to speak naturally. I tell the story of walking into a TV studio for the first time with my heart pounding - and how becoming a regular political analyst years later finally gave me the repetition I needed to trust myself.And then there's the thing that surprised me most: taking an eight-week improv class. Even after decades of speaking, improv helped me get out of my head, into my body, and more comfortable not knowing exactly what would happen next.In this episode, you'll learn:Why confidence is created through speaking rather than perfected in privateWhat it means to embody your message instead of delivering it only from your headWhy repetition builds the muscle memory that makes speaking feel more naturalWhat my first TV political panel taught me about saying yes before I felt readyWhy relying on a script can interrupt your connection with the audienceHow PechaKucha, Ignite, DisruptHR, workshops, and keynotes develop different speaking skillsWhy hosting a podcast or becoming a regular podcast guest strengthens impromptu speakingWhat an eight-week improv class taught me about uncertainty and presenceHow speaking confidence can help you claim the identity of “speaker”Why women's public voices matter to gender equalityAbout Us: The Speaking Your Brand podcast is hosted by Carol Cox. At Speaking Your Brand, we help women entrepreneurs and professionals clarify their brand message and story, create their signature talks, and develop their thought leadership platforms.

Welcome back to the Word on Fire Show. I'm Matthew Petrusek, senior director of the Word on Fire Institute and the host of the Word on Fire Show. Thank you for joining us. The Liturgy of the Hours, or the "Divine Office," is often associated exclusively with the spiritual practices of priests, monks, and nuns. To be sure, praying the Hours is an essential part of the lives of those who have formally taken religious vows. However, the prayer of the Church, as the Liturgy of the Hours is also called, is precisely that: a way of sanctifying the day for the whole Church, both laity and clergy alike. With so many forms of prayer already available, however, why should lay Catholics also consider praying the Hours? What, substantively, is distinctive about it? What are its origins? Moreover, given the size and complexity of the Hours—the full liturgy occupies four thick volumes of text with multiple ribbons to mark different sections—how, practically, can we get started? Here to explain the enduring theological and spiritual richness of the Liturgy of the Hours and how it deepens and enriches all Catholics' lives, is Bishop Robert Barron. Topics Covered 00:00 | Introduction 01:11 | Bishop Barron's diocesan travels 02:35 | Why the Liturgy of the Hours matters to Word on Fire 03:57 | Leading with beauty 04:57 | Prayer and the importance of embodiment 08:06 | The origins and practice of praying the Divine Office 12:13 | How the Liturgy of the Hours shapes priests 13:26 | Understanding the Liturgy of the Hours as the Divine Office 14:22 | Relating the Liturgy of the Hours to the liturgy of the Mass 15:11 | What makes a prayer liturgical? 15:52 | Why the Psalms feature so prominently in the Divine Office 20:06 | How the laity benefits from praying the Divine Office 21:46 | "Pray without ceasing" 23:17 | Getting started with the Liturgy of the Hours 27:32 | Persevering through fatigue in prayer 30:51 | The Divine Office and evangelization 31:44 | Listener question: What effect does our prayer have on others? 34:18 | Join the Word on Fire Institute Links: Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/ NOTE: Do you like this podcast? Become a Word on Fire IGNITE member!
