    Hour 1 centers on the Miami Dolphins' quarterback crossroads after the team's “Green Bay guys,” GM Jon-Eric Sullivan and HC Jeff Hafley, spoke at the NFL Combine and emphasized that with Tua Tagovailoa, “everything is on the table.” Joe Rose reacts to Sullivan's careful messaging, arguing a fresh start would benefit both sides while acknowledging Miami may need to attach a draft pick to move Tua and absorb a significant financial hit. The crew breaks down the team's salary-cap crunch and roster holes facing the new regime, painting a picture of a challenging offseason ahead. Attention then shifts to free agency, where the Dolphins have shown interest in Malik Willis, though competition around the league could make any potential deal difficult. Elsewhere, the guys celebrate Team USA's gold-medal run in hockey, recap the Miami Heat letting one slip late on the road, and highlight a strong road win for the Miami Hurricanes over FSU.

    439: Kevin Trudeau on How to Manifest What You Want: The Hidden Laws Of Success

    SoulTalk with Kute Blackson

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 24, 2026 63:16


    "When you master your inner world, you stop reacting to life and start shaping it." What if the real key to manifestation has nothing to do with vision boards… and everything to do with where you place your focus? In this compelling episode of SoulTalk, Kute Blackson sits down with one of the most talked-about figures in personal development, Kevin Trudeau, for a bold and eye-opening conversation about power, attention, belief, and what it actually takes to create the life you want. This isn't another surface-level conversation about "think positive and hope." Instead, Kevin shares his perspective on the mechanics of manifestation; how your focus shapes your perception, how perception shapes your decisions, and how your decisions ultimately shape your destiny. Together, we explore the idea that the world outside may be noisy, chaotic, and unpredictable, but your ability to direct your attention is the ultimate leverage point. If you've ever wondered why some people seem to attract opportunity, wealth, influence, and momentum while others feel stuck reacting to circumstances, this episode offers a different lens. It invites you to stop giving your energy to distraction and start consciously investing it where it creates results. This conversation isn't about fear. It's about reclaiming agency. It's about understanding how your internal world your focus, your beliefs, your emotional state becomes the foundation of what shows up externally. If you're ready to sharpen your focus, think differently, and unlock a more intentional way of creating success, this episode will challenge you in all the right ways  and leave you asking bigger questions about what's truly possible. → Listen now and explore the deeper mechanics of focus, power, and manifestation.   TIMESTAMPS (00:02:24) – Focusing on your inner world as the only reality you truly control. (00:03:30) – Creating a personal paradise by focusing on the world immediately around you. (00:04:32) – Stress and anxiety caused by obsessing over global events we cannot change. (00:06:04) – The tension between self-focus and service to humanity. (00:08:14) – Why belief must be grounded rather than delusional. (00:09:11) – Rebuilding confidence step by step when life feels collapsed. (00:12:45) – The danger of fantasy thinking without aligned action. (00:15:10) – Discipline, focus, and consistency as the real drivers of success. (00:18:32) – Personal responsibility versus victim mentality in modern society. (00:21:07) – How external distractions keep people away from their true potential. (00:24:18) – The psychological impact of media, fear, and constant information overload. (00:27:46) – Attention as the most valuable resource in today's world. (00:33:05) – How environment and daily inputs shape mindset and outcomes. (00:36:22) – The difference between reacting to the world and consciously creating your experience. (00:39:41) – Inner mastery as the foundation of influence and leadership. (00:45:36) – Why most people give their power away without realizing it. (00:48:02) – The importance of clarity, intention, and mental direction. (00:52:44) – Choosing where to place your focus in a noisy and chaotic world. (00:56:14) – Mastering your internal state regardless of what is happening globally. (00:57:23) – The illusion of control over the outside world versus real control within. (00:58:53) – Reclaiming personal power through awareness and intentional focus. In This Episode You Will Learn… Why focusing on the external world can keep you distracted from your real power. How your personal perception shapes your emotional reality more than global events. Why inner focus is the ultimate form of control in uncertain times. The hidden cost of constantly consuming fear-driven narratives. How shifting your attention inward can radically change how you experience Some Questions I Ask What if the chaos of the world is pulling my attention away from my real power? Am I reacting to headlines more than directing my own life? Where is my focus on the world I can't control or the one I can? How much of my stress comes from things outside my direct reality? Who would I become if I mastered my inner world instead of fearing the outer one?   Get in Touch: Create a life that is a masterpiece.

    Are PTs Leaving Money on the Table?In this episode, Jimmy, Tony Maritato, and Dave Kittle dig into something most physical therapists aren't even considering:Live selling. Affiliate income. Attention as the business model.It starts with Jimmy testing live selling premium recovery devices through Amazon Live.But it quickly turns into a bigger conversation:Are PTs avoiding affiliate revenue because it feels “salesy”?Are we spending $100K on conference booths while ignoring attention 11.99 months of the year?Could live shopping become a legitimate revenue stream for physical therapists?Does personality matter more than originality?Is attention the real asset in modern healthcare?This isn't about selling out.It's about understanding the shift happening in business:Attention → Trust → RevenueIf you don't build attention, someone else will.What We Covered???? Live Selling & Amazon LiveWhy Amazon is begging creators to go liveWhy doing it “badly” costs nothingWhy reps matter more than polishHow PT authority changes the equation???? Affiliate Income for PTsAre you recommending products anyway?Why not monetize ethically?The Dr. Samantha Smith model: courses + affiliates + virtual visitsWhere affiliate income fits into clinic strategy???? Personality > Original IdeasYou don't need to reinvent the wheel.You need to build your version of it.Tony breaks down:Why copying structure isn't copying valueWhy pushing through “The Dip” mattersWhy most people quit too early???? The $100K Booth ProblemSpending six figures at conferences…For 48 hours of exposure.Meanwhile:Brands like Rehab 2 Perform and the Prehab Guys build attention year-round.They show up consistently.They don't rely on one event.???? The Bigger QuestionWhat if the future of PT looks more like:MrBeastRyan SerhantOr a media-first brandInstead of:Waiting for referralsFighting reimbursementHoping the booth traffic convertsKey TakeawaysThe value isn't in your hands. It's in taking action.Nobody sees your early bad reps.Attention compounds.Personality is the differentiator.If you already recommend products, affiliate revenue isn't unethical — it's efficient.Selling before trust breaks the spell.But avoiding monetization entirely leaves opportunity on the table.

    In this episode of Next in Media, Mike Shields sits down with Leanne Perice, founder and CEO of Made by All, one of the creator economy's most distinctive talent management firms. Leanne shares how she built the company from the ground up over nine years, starting with a single $1,000 deal in 2014 and growing it into a global powerhouse that doubles revenue year over year. She explains how her early career at a celebrity endorsement agency gave her the blueprint for what great talent management looks like, and how she applied those lessons to an entirely new generation of digital creators. From signing Vine stars before the term 'creator economy' even existed, to opening a new office in Dubai, Leanne has built Made by All on the belief that creators deserve the same strategic investment as Hollywood's biggest names. Leanne also introduces her framework DASI (Distribution, Attention, Storytelling, and Impact) to explain what creators truly offer brands, and why so many marketers are still only tapping into the first letter. She opens up about the CMO turnover crisis slowing momentum in the creator space, why she launched Made by Us as a social storytelling studio, and why she believes YouTube's long-form monetization is the best opportunity in the market right now. She also gives her take on platforms like YouTube and TikTok brokering brand deals directly, the collision of Hollywood and Silicon Valley financial models, and what brands still get wrong about building a presence on social media. This episode is a must-listen for anyone at the intersection of media, marketing, and the creator economy.   Key Highlights

We review a weekend that saw Dundalk defeat Sligo Rovers 6–0, DLR Waves put eight past Kerry, Bohemians score seven against Drogheda, Galway United impress against Peamount, and plenty more statement performances across the country.Dundalk forward Sophie Hanlon (1:17:47) joins the show after scoring a remarkable 14-minute hat-trick in that 6–0 victory.

    Pour mieux jouir de la vie, commencez par la simplifier – y compris dans le domaine de la prière. Attention, quand je parle de simplifier sa vie de prière, je ne veux pas dire qu'il faut prier moins ! La Bible nous demande de prier sans cesse (1 Thessaloniciens 5:17). Nous pouvons et devons venir fréquemment à Dieu dans la prière. Ce que je veux dire, c'est que si vous essayez d'être trop éloquent, vous pouvez compliquer votre vie de prière au point d'en faire un fardeau. Rassurez-vous, vous n'avez pas besoin d'impressionner Dieu par vos prières; vous pouvez lui parler comme à un ami, lui dire ce que vous pensez et ressentez vraiment. Avec Dieu, vous pouvez toujours être sincère, vous pouvez toujours être vous-même. Inutile d'afficher des airs religieux. Vous pouvez être authentique avec lui et prendre du plaisir à passer du temps avec lui en toute simplicité. Père, je te remercie parce que parler avec toi n'est pas un processus compliqué. Je suis reconnaissant de ce que je peux être moi-même et te dire simplement ce que j'ai sur le cœur. Rappelle-moi que prier, c'est simplement parler avec toi et que je peux venir à toi à n'importe quel moment de la journée. — Êtes-vous prêt à aller plus loin ?

    On entend partout que le stress ferait “prendre du ventre”. Mythe des réseaux sociaux ou réalité scientifique ? La réponse est plus nuancée qu'un simple oui ou non.Quand le stress devient chronique, l'organisme active davantage l'axe HPA, responsable notamment de la sécrétion de cortisol. Or, la graisse viscérale – celle qui entoure les organes – est sensible aux signaux hormonaux. Plusieurs études observent une association entre stress prolongé et augmentation du tissu adipeux abdominal, notamment via des marqueurs de cortisol mesurés sur le long terme.Mais le cortisol ne “crée” pas des kilos par magie. Ce qui compte reste l'équilibre énergétique global. En revanche, le stress peut perturber l'appétit, altérer la sensibilité à l'insuline et surtout dégrader le sommeil.Le facteur comportemental est souvent déterminant : sous pression, on dort moins, on bouge moins, on grignote davantage, on consomme plus d'alcool ou d'aliments réconfortants. Sur la durée, ces changements peuvent augmenter le tour de taille.Attention aussi à ne pas confondre ballonnements liés aux tensions et véritable accumulation de graisse abdominale.Le message clé : le stress n'agit pas seul, mais il peut créer un terrain favorable. Priorité à trois piliers simples et puissants : sommeil de qualité, mouvement quotidien et repas structurés.

    In this episode, we sit down with Visiting Assistant Professor of Writing and Environmental Studies Leah Naomi Green to continue this season's central question: What is beauty? Approaching the question through poetry, ecology, and lived experience, Green reflects on beauty as a practice of attention rather than an attribute of prettiness. Drawing from her life as a poet, teacher, and homesteader, she explores how intimacy with language, place, and responsibility shapes how we perceive the world. Throughout the conversation, Green and host James Lambert discuss poetry's power to defamiliarize the familiar, to help us feel rather than merely think, and to reconnect us to both human and more-than-human communities. Including readings from poets like Gregory Orr and Galway Kinnell, as well as excerpts from Green's own work, the episode invites listeners to consider beauty as something we cultivate — through care, naming, and presence — in classrooms, landscapes, and everyday life.

    What kind of faith gets Heaven’s attention? In Luke 7, Jesus was amazed by a Roman centurion’s faith—not a religious leader, but a soldier who understood authority and believed Jesus could heal his servant with just a word... Notes The Roman soldier’s amazing faith got Heaven’s attention. Weak or strong, everyone has a form of faith. Read Luke 7:1–10 Luke 7:9When Jesus heard this, He was amazed. Turning to the crowd that was following Him, He said, "I tell you, I haven't seen faith like this in all Israel!" Everything about Jesus was amazing. Matthew 8:27They were amazed and said, "What kind of Man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey Him!" Luke 7:9When Jesus heard this, He was amazed. Roman centurions were significant people. This centurion somehow knew Jesus could heal his beloved servant. Sometimes non-believers have more faith than believers. The two disciples on the Emmaus Road summed it up, “We had hoped He was the One.” The non-believers remembered what Jesus said would happen after He died. Matthew 27:63We remember that while He was still alive that deceiver said, 'After three days I will rise again.' Where does sickness come from? Sickness and death were not part of God’s original plan for us. Romans 5:12Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned. Satan brought the afflictions in Job's life. God will, on occasion, allow sickness in our lives to keep us humble, to teach us lessons, and to prepare us for the future. #1 Natural healing is what God built into the human body. #2 There is supernatural healing too. There is a promise of healing in the book of Isaiah.(Isaiah 53:4–5) 1 Peter 2:24"He himself bore our sins" in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; "by His wounds you have been healed." Lay hold of this promise when you need His healing touch. Why are some of us still sick?One reason is simply a lack of asking.(James. 4:2) Mark 6:5–6And because of their unbelief, he couldn't do any miracles among them except to place his hands on a few sick people and heal them. And he was amazed at their unbelief. The people who knew Jesus best couldn’t see Him for who He really was. Hebrews 11:1Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. The safest place to put your faith is in God. Faith is belief plus action. Faith does things. Amazing faith is to be used, applied, and put through its paces. The Christian life is lived by and through faith. Faith can make the difference between something happening and not happening. God is the One who works.But He chooses to work through humans living by faith. Even death is not the end. Jesus said, “I am the living One. I died, but look—I am alive forever and ever!I hold the keys of death and the grave.” The powerful centurion had rank, influence, and resources.The widow had nothing. The centurion reached out to Jesus.But Jesus reached out to the woman. Read Luke 7:11–17 Luke 7:13When the Lord saw her, His heart overflowed with compassion. "Don't cry!" He said. Jesus was deeply moved by the widow’s plight. Jonah knew the nature of God was to forgive. Jesus feels sorrow and compassion for those who have lost loved ones.

    What kind of faith gets Heaven’s attention? In Luke 7, Jesus was amazed by a Roman centurion’s faith—not a religious leader, but a soldier who understood authority and believed Jesus could heal his servant with just a word... Notes The Roman soldier’s amazing faith got Heaven’s attention. Weak or strong, everyone has a form of faith. Read Luke 7:1–10 Luke 7:9When Jesus heard this, He was amazed. Turning to the crowd that was following Him, He said, "I tell you, I haven't seen faith like this in all Israel!" Everything about Jesus was amazing. Matthew 8:27They were amazed and said, "What kind of Man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey Him!" Luke 7:9When Jesus heard this, He was amazed. Roman centurions were significant people. This centurion somehow knew Jesus could heal his beloved servant. Sometimes non-believers have more faith than believers. The two disciples on the Emmaus Road summed it up, “We had hoped He was the One.” The non-believers remembered what Jesus said would happen after He died. Matthew 27:63We remember that while He was still alive that deceiver said, 'After three days I will rise again.' Where does sickness come from? Sickness and death were not part of God’s original plan for us. Romans 5:12Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned. Satan brought the afflictions in Job's life. God will, on occasion, allow sickness in our lives to keep us humble, to teach us lessons, and to prepare us for the future. #1 Natural healing is what God built into the human body. #2 There is supernatural healing too. There is a promise of healing in the book of Isaiah.(Isaiah 53:4–5) 1 Peter 2:24"He himself bore our sins" in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; "by His wounds you have been healed." Lay hold of this promise when you need His healing touch. Why are some of us still sick?One reason is simply a lack of asking.(James. 4:2) Mark 6:5–6And because of their unbelief, he couldn't do any miracles among them except to place his hands on a few sick people and heal them. And he was amazed at their unbelief. The people who knew Jesus best couldn’t see Him for who He really was. Hebrews 11:1Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. The safest place to put your faith is in God. Faith is belief plus action. Faith does things. Amazing faith is to be used, applied, and put through its paces. The Christian life is lived by and through faith. Faith can make the difference between something happening and not happening. God is the One who works.But He chooses to work through humans living by faith. Even death is not the end. Jesus said, “I am the living One. I died, but look—I am alive forever and ever!I hold the keys of death and the grave.” The powerful centurion had rank, influence, and resources.The widow had nothing. The centurion reached out to Jesus.But Jesus reached out to the woman. Read Luke 7:11–17 Luke 7:13When the Lord saw her, His heart overflowed with compassion. "Don't cry!" He said. Jesus was deeply moved by the widow’s plight. Jonah knew the nature of God was to forgive. Jesus feels sorrow and compassion for those who have lost loved ones. We will see our loved ones who died in faith again. Paul uses the word “harpazō”, translated as “caught up.”(1 Thessalonians 4:16–17) The centurion demonstrated amazing faith. For the people of Nazareth, their familiarity bred contempt. The church is a dangerous place.

    You are pouring yourself out every single day. But into whose cup? In this powerful conversation inspired by Derek Thompson, Justin and Kylie explore a simple metaphor that will stop you mid-scroll: every morning you wake with a full jug of water. By night, it’s empty. The only question that matters is where it went. Work. News. Regret. Netflix. Anxiety. Group chats. Your kids. Your marriage. Attention never lies. It reveals what we truly value. If you’ve been feeling depleted, resentful, stretched thin — this episode will gently realign you with what actually matters. Because tomorrow morning?The jug refills. KEY POINTS The “Cup Game” metaphor and why you’re playing it whether you realise it or not Why attention is your most honest measure of values The hidden cost of pouring into cups that don’t matter Why good things can still drain you A simple end-of-day question that changes everything How to reset — even if you’ve been “losing” the game for years QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “Attention never lies. It reveals what we truly value.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Derek Thompson Substack article: Whose Cup Are You Filling? Stephen Covey – “The things that matter most should never be at the mercy of the things that matter least.” ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS At the end of today, ask: Whose cup did I fill? Notice one cup that received too much water. Choose one relationship that gets first pour tomorrow. When you feel depleted at 4pm, take one small intentional step toward connection. Remember: the jug refills in the morning. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    On this episode, Jared starts a new series - Mighty Minerals! He kicks the series off by exploring lithium from a completely different perspective—not just as a psychiatric medication, but as a naturally occurring trace mineral that may play a role in mood balance, stress resilience, sleep rhythm, and cognitive support. You'll learn the difference between high-dose pharmaceutical lithium and low-dose nutritional lithium, why dosage and intent matter, and how integrative practitioners are using micro-doses as part of a broader wellness strategy. Jared also breaks down how lithium interacts with circadian rhythm, neurotransmitter signaling, and brain stability, plus how nutrients like magnesium, omega-3s, B vitamins, inositol, and adaptogenic herbs may complement it.

    SOCIAL SKILLS (Remastered): Navigating Complex Social Interactions in TTRPGs

    Every tabletop party eventually meets the same terrifying monster: Not a dragon. Not a lich. Not even a gelatinous cube. No — it's the moment the GM says: "Okay… what do you say to the Duke?" Suddenly the barbarian who decapitated three ogres can't order soup, the bard becomes a hostage negotiator, and someone is Googling "how to Persuasion check in real life." This episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast dives headfirst into the chaotic intersection of roleplay, mechanics, and social awkwardness — breaking down how social skills in TTRPGs, navigating complex social encounters, and roleplaying character interactions can turn conversations into some of the most memorable moments at the table. Show Notes In this episode, the RPGBOT crew explores the nuanced world of social skills in tabletop roleplaying games, unpacking how conversation, persuasion, deception, and negotiation function as core gameplay pillars alongside combat and exploration. The discussion centers on the challenge of translating real-world communication into structured mechanics — and how systems like D&D social interaction checks, Pathfinder diplomacy mechanics, and broader TTRPG roleplay frameworks attempt to balance player performance with character capability. The hosts examine how navigating complex social interactions in TTRPGs often requires collaboration between players and Game Masters. They discuss the importance of establishing expectations around roleplay depth, whether tables prioritize immersive acting or streamlined dice-driven resolution. Through examples ranging from tense political intrigue to comedic tavern banter, the episode highlights how roleplaying character personality traits, leveraging skill proficiencies, and creative problem-solving in narrative encounters can shape outcomes without drawing a weapon. Attention is also given to GM facilitation strategies, including setting clear stakes for social encounters, rewarding clever dialogue, and avoiding binary success/failure outcomes. The conversation underscores how layered NPC motivations, faction dynamics, and evolving story consequences elevate social encounter design for Game Masters beyond simple skill checks into meaningful storytelling tools. Ultimately, the episode frames social play as a vital storytelling engine — encouraging players to embrace vulnerability, experimentation, and collaborative narrative building. Whether negotiating peace treaties, bluffing through palace intrigue, or convincing a dragon not to eat you, mastering tabletop roleplaying social mechanics expands the emotional and strategic scope of any campaign. Key Takeaways Social encounters are a core gameplay pillar alongside combat and exploration in modern TTRPG design Balancing player roleplay ability vs character skill stats is essential for fairness and immersion Clear expectations at Session Zero help define roleplay depth and mechanical reliance Dice rolls should support narrative outcomes — not replace meaningful interaction GMs can improve engagement by defining stakes, motivations, and consequences for NPCs Layered social encounters encourage creative problem-solving beyond combat solutions Rewarding clever dialogue and character-driven choices strengthens table investment Failure in social situations should create story complications, not dead ends Strong social play enhances campaign tone, character development, and group collaboration Mastering TTRPG communication and persuasion mechanics leads to richer storytelling moments Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

    We've built elite athletes. But are we building strong humans? In this episode of WINNERS FIND A WAY, I sit down with Gary Thrapp — youth sports advocate, author, and owner of Beyond The Baseline — to talk about where youth sports is headed… and what it's costing us. This conversation isn't soft. It's real. About Gary Thrapp With over 40 years in youth sports, Gary Thrapp has facilitated more than 50,000 games at his facility in Davenport, Iowa 9a8ef877-a0eb-478f-9c46-23d2842… . He's the owner of Beyond The Baseline, a premier basketball and volleyball event center, and author of The Wild World of Youth Sports. Gary focuses on: Leadership development Character formation Community engagement Creating equitable opportunities for kids He works on the front lines of youth development every single day 9a8ef877-a0eb-478f-9c46-23d2842… . And what he's seeing should get every parent's attention. What We Covered 1️⃣ NIL & The Business of Youth Sports The money conversation isn't going away. But when recruiting replaces development… When metrics replace fundamentals… When ego replaces effort… We have a problem. We talked about: NIL filtering down to youth levels The transfer portal mindset Winning vs. developing Recruiting talent vs. building skill 2️⃣ The Hidden Epidemic: Phones & Attention Gary told a story that hit me hard. A third grader asked him: "Why are you making us work while the adults are staring at their phones?" That's leadership. From a third grader. We discussed: Attention spans collapsing Coaches competing with TikTok Parents missing the moments The competitive edge of focus If you want your child to have an advantage? Put the phone down. 3️⃣ Developing a Success Map Gary's book Developing Your Success Map centers on one powerful idea: Ask kids what matters to them. Not what matters to you. We talked about: Purpose Dreams Monthly and daily goals Asking questions instead of lecturing You don't build resilience by talking at kids. You build it by engaging them. 4️⃣ Character > Highlight Reels You can recruit talent. Or you can develop it. You can chase wins. Or you can build people. The scoreboard isn't the ultimate measure. Character is. Resources Mentioned GaryThrapp.com BeyondTheBaseline.net The Wild World of Youth Sports (Available on Amazon) 9a8ef877-a0eb-478f-9c46-23d2842… Leading Winning Teams (Trent M. Clark)

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 20, 2026 18:11


    This episode was sparked by one of Chris and Melissa's classic "walk conversations" — the kind where something clicks, and you realize it needs to be shared…  They begin with a powerful testimonial from a Family Brand family who realized they were spending more time talking about what they don't like in the world — politics, division, noise — than they were talking about their own values. And that insight led to a bigger question: Where are we allowing our attention to go? Because wherever your attention goes, your energy follows. Chris shares how easy it is to get pulled into news cycles, controversial figures, political opinions, and cultural outrage — sometimes without even realizing it. And while many of those conversations feel urgent, he began asking himself a better question: What is this attention taking me away from? When he thinks about his wife, his five kids, his team, the players he coaches, and the people in his real, immediate life — he realizes that his influence is strongest right there. And every ounce of attention spent elsewhere is attention not available for those relationships. Melissa adds another layer: Sometimes it feels like we're being pressured — even bullied — into having opinions about everything. Social media makes it easy to take a stance instantly. But do we actually have to?  You don't owe the world an opinion on every issue. You don't have to be dragged into every debate. And you definitely don't have to sacrifice your peace or your family's focus in the process.  They also clarify: This isn't about sticking your head in the sand. It's not about ignoring real issues or not standing for something meaningful. It's about being intentional. If you care about a cause, choose it on purpose. If you want to serve your community, do it intentionally. If you want to shape the world, start by loving your family well. Because the most meaningful influence often begins at home.  This episode is ultimately an invitation to do a personal audit: Where am I giving my attention? Is that aligned with who I want to be? Is the energy tradeoff worth it? What deserves more of my focus? When you protect your attention, you protect your energy. And when you protect your energy, you protect your family.   LINKS: All Links Family Brand!  stan.store/familybrand familybrand.com/quiz familybrand.com/retreats.    Episode Minute By Minute: 00:00 – The walk that inspired today's episode 01:00 – The Nickerson family quote and cultural noise 02:30 – Where attention goes, energy flows 04:00 – The hidden cost of divided attention 05:30 – Do I actually care about this issue? 06:30 – Chris's example: where his energy truly belongs 08:30 – "If you want to change the world, go home and love your family." 09:30 – Being intentional about the causes you support 10:30 – Feeling pressured to take a stance 12:00 – You don't owe anyone an opinion 13:30 – Choosing principles over politics 15:00 – Protecting your attention 16:00 – Practical audit: where is my attention going? 17:00 – Final takeaway and weekly challenge
