Every organization eventually hits the same wall: central teams aren't responsive enough, federated teams reinvent everything, and the result is a messy tug-of-war between alignment and autonomy. IT organizations feel this pain especially acutely. In this mini Ask Us Anything episode, Rodney Evans and Sam Spurlin unpack why centralized vs. decentralized is a false binary, why organizations swing endlessly between the two, and what it actually takes to design a federated model that works in the real world.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Nando Barnett shares how he transformed Sell in Style from a small home-staging side hustle into a fast-growing multi-million-dollar company. After leaving a 10-year corporate career, he and his wife Sarah started flipping houses, which eventually led real estate agents to request their staging help. They went all-in during 2020, reinvesting everything, scaling from just the two of them to a team of 47. Nando explains how adapting as a leader, understanding clients deeply, and taking fast action fueled their growth to more than 1,400 jobs a year. He also highlights the importance of systems, mentorship, and building a strong team culture. The journey shows how clarity, bold risks, and a client-first mindset can turn a simple idea into a highly successful business. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Nando Barnett, the hardest part of growing a small business is mental attitude — staying strong when things go wrong, handling pressure, and quickly shifting from problems to solutions without getting stuck emotionally. He says you have to absorb the stress, process it, and then move forward with clear action, because your mindset determines how well you lead the business through tough moments. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Nando Barnett says the business books that helped him the most are Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell, Atomic Habits by James Clear, and several leadership-focused books like Leaders Eat Last, which have all influenced his mindset, productivity, and approach to leading a fast-growing business. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? According to Nando Barnett, he doesn't follow a long list of podcasts, but he focuses heavily on online learning by surrounding himself with mentors and expert content; he even redesigned his entire Instagram feed so that whenever he opens it, he only sees business leaders, coaches, and people he admires, allowing him to constantly learn, stay motivated, and absorb practical insights that help him grow his business. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? According to Nando Barnett, the best tool to grow a small business is mentors, as he believes they dramatically shorten the learning curve, help business owners avoid costly mistakes, provide clarity during difficult decisions, strengthen mental resilience, and guide both day-to-day operations and long-term strategy, which is why he personally works with multiple mentors and invests heavily in ongoing coaching and advisory support. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? According to Nando Barnett, the advice he would give himself on day one of starting in business is to strengthen his mental attitude, stay positive, push through the difficult weeks, and always support his team, because maintaining resilience and backing the people around him are what ultimately drive long-term success.

It's art, memory, and freedom.”On this episode Troy Meadows sits down with Malcolm Pascotti, founder of Can't Buy Cool Studios. Malcolm's journey is one of quiet evolution. He started as a road runner, lots of miles in high school and beyond, but during the pandemic, while living in San Francisco, he began exploring trails in the Marin Headlands and hills around Pacifica. That slow, natural shift eventually led him into mountain running and “DIY ultras” solo, self‑supported runs of 30–40 miles, all on his own terms.What makes Malcolm stand out isn't just distance or pace, but the way he mixes movement with creativity. Outside of running, he climbs, skis, scrambles, shoots photography (both professionally and for fun), writes poems and musings. He calls it living.He also quietly gives back to the community: providing gear and support to fellow runners, like when he ran a T-shirt sale to help fund race entries for another runner,  proof that support doesn't always need spotlight.Malcolm is quietly building Can't Buy Cool Studios, weaving together art, running, identity, and community.Motivational HighlightsEmbrace adventure on your own terms — solo ultras don't have to be for trophies, they can be for the soul.Running can be part of a creative life — movement, art, writing, identity — all deeply connected.Quiet generosity matters: supporting others in small ways helps build a stronger, more inclusive community.Balance is messy but possible: holding down a full-time job, a creative process, and still getting out for the run.Links & ResourcesIG: @cantbuycoolstudiosWebsite: https://cantbuycoolstudios.com/Partner Links: Janji - Janji.comA big shoutout to our sponsor, Janji!

This episode of The Better Life with Dr Pinkston features Dr Pinkston and Ray Solano from PD Labs, focusing on how to navigate and survive the holidays—dubbed the "Super Bowl of Sugar" (Halloween to Valentine's Day)—without derailing your health goals. The discussion centers on research challenging restrictive dieting, suggesting that unrestricted eating of nutritious food, layered with non-digestible fiber (nuts, seeds, berries) to slow sugar absorption, can offer similar benefits to fasting without the negative effects. Key Takeaways: Mindful Holiday Strategy: The holidays are a time for balance and not gaining weight, rather than focusing intensely on losing it. The Problem with Restriction: Restrictive diets (like extreme keto or carnivore) can backfire psychologically and physically. Research suggests high protein without proper carbohydrates can negatively affect longevity. The "Eat Human" Approach: Focus on a common-sense approach: avoid processed foods, know your intolerances, and aim for a balance of protein, fat, and carbs (suggested ratio: 40% protein, 30% fat, 30% carb) in every meal. Breakfast is Key: Start the day with high protein (40 grams) to stabilize blood sugars, reducing cravings later. Avoid traditional high-carb breakfasts like instant oatmeal. Stay Hydrated & Stress-Free: Managing stress with simple supplements like Magnesium Glycinate and Theanine (or cortisol managers like Triquillata) is crucial, as stress often leads to poor eating choices. Next-Generation Health: Ray Solano introduces PD Labs' work on peptides (like the GLP-1 incretins) and their innovative two-year project to make these high-molecular-weight molecules available transdermally (non-injectable) by Christmas, transforming chronic disease prevention. The conversation emphasizes starting your health recovery journey now, not waiting for a "magical time" in January.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Share a commentWhen life doesn't play by the rules—when the righteous suffer, the wicked prosper, and laughter feels thin—wisdom becomes more than a virtue. It becomes survival. Walking through Ecclesiastes 7, we explore how Solomon, late in life, turns from image and excess to a rare, grounded wisdom that faces sorrow honestly, embraces humility, and trusts God's sovereignty when answers stay out of reach.We unpack four patterns that reshape everyday living. First, wisdom rejects perfectionism: no one arrives at moral flawlessness, and the gospel frees us to repent quickly and grow steadily. Second, wisdom refuses to be paralyzed by criticism: we learn to sift words with courage and humility, asking what might be true and letting God use it for change. Third, wisdom recognizes the limits of intellectualism: knowledge is precious but not ultimate, and discernment blooms where prayer and thought meet. Fourth, wisdom resists hedonism's empty promises: Solomon's pursuit of pleasure drained his capacity for covenant joy, reminding us that ordered loves—rooted in God—turn desire into durable delight.Along the way, we draw a surprising line to Johann Sebastian Bach, whose marked-up Ecclesiastes 7 and quiet margin prayers reveal why sorrow can tutor the heart better than easy days. The benefits of wisdom prove practical and visible: a unique steadiness in a noisy world, clearer choices amid life's riddles, and a softened face that signals a softened heart. If you've felt the tension of unanswered questions and the pull of quick fixes, this conversation invites you to a wiser way—one that steadies your steps, restores purpose, and keeps you close to the God who knows the end from the beginning.If this message helps you think and live more wisely, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs courage today, and leave a review so others can find it.Support the showStephen's latest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardback

 In this episode, we dive into the fascinating concept of anticipatory balance—the body's ability to predict movement before it happens. It's a skill that both humans and horses rely on constantly, and in Equine-Assisted Services, it becomes a crucial part of safety, function, and performance. We explore how anticipatory balance develops, how it keeps us from getting injured, and what happens when it's impaired. Key Topics CoveredWhat is anticipatory balance?How humans use anticipatory balance in everyday life and ridingHow equines shift, brace, and stabilize their bodies in anticipation of rider movement, terrain changes, or herd dynamics.Register now for the Balancing the Scales Mini Course here:  https://hetrauniversity.mykajabi.com/BalancingTheScalesMiniCourseFollow us on social and plug in here: https://hetrauniversity.mykajabi.com/HETRAUniversityLinks

In this week's Grow Guides we're breaking down four fundamentals every home grower should understand, whether you're on your first tent or your fiftieth. We start with light intensity, what it actually does inside the plant, how to avoid blasting your tips to death, and how to find the sweet spot for strong, stress-free growth. From there we move into a beginner-friendly guide to pheno-hunting at home. No lab coats, no nonsense, just simple steps to spot your keepers, recognise the standouts early, and build your own personal stable over time. We also dig into the real science behind drying speeds. Everyone says “slow and steady,” but we explain why it matters, what's actually happening inside the flower as it dries, and how to avoid the harsh, grassy results that happen when you rush it. Finally, we break down the root-to-shoot ratio, one of the most overlooked concepts in growing. Understanding this balance will help you diagnose plant issues faster, feed more intelligently, and grow stronger plants from veg to harvest. A packed episode full of knowledge that makes your next grow smoother, smarter, and a whole lot more fun. As always, join us on Percy's Grow Room if you want to learn more, get help with your grow, or hang out with thousands of growers just like you. Join our community here:

In this episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon sits down with Kim DeMoss - Retreat Ranch's Executive Assistant, Yoga Teacher Training host, and long-time retreat collaborator - to talk about what it's really like to experience retreats from both sides: hosting and supporting. From her early days hosting retreats with Shannon to now managing the logistics behind the scenes, Kim shares candid insights on burnout, boundaries, work-life balance, and how she found her groove in the retreat industry. They also dive into the digital evolution of the industry - how AI and online visibility are reshaping the way leaders must market their retreats - and why self-awareness is key to finding your place in this ever-changing landscape. Whether you're leading retreats, supporting them, or figuring out which role fits best, this episode will give you real-world perspective, practical advice, and a reminder that your version of success doesn't have to look like anyone else's.

This episode is for anyone staring down the end of the year wondering if they "succeeded"—comparing themselves to external markers, measuring their worth by what didn't happen, or feeling behind despite doing the work. We explore how to define success on your own terms, celebrate what actually matters, and set yourself up for meaningful progress ahead.The Big QuestionHow do I define success as I reflect on the past year and plan for the next?What We CoverGround yourself in your actual goals – Compare yourself to what you originally set out to do, not what others achieved or external markers say you should have done.Account for pivots – Document when your plans changed. Those adjustments often represent good leadership, not failure.Balance input and output goals – Focus on what you control (inputs like sending weekly newsletters) alongside desired outcomes (outputs like business growth). Input goals give you agency and realistic measures of success.Get specific with your vision – "Getting a job" isn't enough. Define the job you want, at the company you want, doing work you want to do.Give yourself grace – Sometimes success is showing up through a hard year. No one else knows the battles you fought.Key TakeawaySuccess isn't just about hitting January's goals. It's about acknowledging what shifted, celebrating the inputs you controlled, and defining what matters to you—not what external markers say should matter.Resources MentionedRuchika Malhotra, Uncompete: Rejecting Competition to Unlock SuccessResources:Navigating a big transition?

Secretary of Defense Hegseth is making use of his sights.  He is focusing at times on Senator Mark Kelly, seeking to wreak havoc upon him for his utterances which have angered Hegseth's master.  Meanwhile, purported drug smugglers have found Davy Jones' locker at the order of Hegseth, it has been reported, including those left helpless after initial lethal strikes.  Yale Professor and Bancroft Prize winner John Fabian Witt joins us to help us make sense of the international law and laws of war issues here. Meanwhile, your poor co-host, Andy, is subjected to a Socratic barrage at the hands of a Kingsfield-like Professor Amar, as the relentless logic - or is it illogic - of Hegseth's actions run into a Constitutional wall.  This is an entirely new, and entirely irresistible analysis; it's Professor Amar at his best.

You love your work and your kids, so why does it feel like you have to choose? If you're chasing balance between work and fatherhood, you're trying to solve the wrong problem.

At just 19, he co-founded a Korean restaurant that achieved over $3 million in its first year—an early taste of the highs and lows of startup life. Throughout his career, Young has embraced "failing forward" to refine his leadership style, develop bulletproof operational systems, and guide multiple ventures beyond the million-dollar revenue mark. What sets Young apart is his unwavering belief in "work-life integration" as opposed to the conventional notion of balance. By weaving self-care practices into daily routines, he's been able to juggle fatherhood, founding new companies, and fractional executive roles without burning out. For Young, personal well-being is a core pillar of building sustainable businesses and leading teams to long-term success.

Are you living at your best—or simply getting by? For many believers, chronic exhaustion has become a quiet norm. Yet Scripture reminds us that burnout isn't a badge of honor. It's a warning light. When life feels out of balance, it may be a sign we're pushing beyond the limits God lovingly designed for our good.Today, we sat down with Carey Nieuwhof—pastor, bestselling author of At Your Best: How to Get Time, Energy, and Priorities Working in Your Favor, leadership expert, and host of the Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast, as well as the founding pastor of Connexus Church—to talk about how Christians can pursue biblical rest and renewed purpose. Carey's insights come not from theory, but from the deepest valley of personal experience.When Success Masks ExhaustionCarey's story began two decades ago, during a season of explosive ministry growth. His church was thriving, opportunities were multiplying, and by every outward measure, life was “on top.” But amid this success, his inner world was collapsing.After returning from a high-profile speaking event, Carey hit a wall:“It was like I fell off a cliff. I lost motivation, passion, and energy. I met all the symptoms of clinical depression. My body declared a finish line I had refused to acknowledge.”People around him saw the signs. He didn't. And that's often the story behind burnout—others notice the warning lights long before we do.Carey describes burnout as “the gap between what you're capable of and what you're carrying.” Early in ministry, he assumed that increasing responsibility meant increasing hours. It was an unsustainable equation.Yet today, two decades later, he leads a much larger platform with far more influence—without living exhausted. Why? Because he restructured his life around a biblical rhythm of rest, limits, and intentional focus.Managing Energy, Not Just TimeMany Christians feel that better time management will fix their overload. But as Carey points out, time is a fixed asset—everyone gets the same 24 hours. Energy, however, rises and falls.Every person has what Carey calls a “green zone”—a few hours each day when they are at their best mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. For him, it's morning. For others, it might be midday or evening.His challenge is simple: Do what you're best at when you're at your best.When he writes in his green zone, he gets exponential results. When he tries the same work in his “red zone,” productivity crashes. This principle applies to everyone—from CEOs to parents, pastors, and business owners.Stewarding energy also requires boundaries. That means saying no—not out of selfishness, but out of faithfulness.Carey explains:Saying yes to every request eventually forces you to say no to the people who matter most.Delegation is a spiritual discipline.Some opportunities, even good ones, don't align with God's call in a particular season.By categorizing his decisions—like eliminating breakfast meetings that compete with his green zone—Carey reclaimed the margin he had been missing for years.Rest Is Not a Reward—It's DesignFor many Christians, rest feels like something we “earn” after working ourselves to the edge. But biblically, rest is part of our calling.Carey describes Sabbath not just as rehab after exhaustion, but prehab—something that prepares and strengthens us for faithful work. He points to the way elite athletes build rhythms of sleep, diet, and intentional recovery before they step onto the court.Even God modeled this for us—delighting in His creation and resting not from exhaustion but from joyful completeness.For Carey, the principles of rest and margin extend well beyond the calendar.A free Saturday protects family time. A healthy emergency fund protects the home from crisis. Limits are not restrictions—they are blessings that allow us to flourish.Margin creates room to love well, give freely, and listen to God's direction.Living at Your BestCarey's journey from burnout to renewal is a grace-filled reminder: God never asked us to outrun His design.He calls us to work diligently, rest faithfully, and live within the good limits He created for our flourishing. Carey's whole story—and the principles he teaches in his book At Your Best—offer a roadmap for anyone seeking balance, health, and spiritual renewal.For more wisdom from Carey Nieuwhof, explore his book At Your Best and visit the Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast. And if you're an advisor, he'll be joining us at Redeeming Money, our conference for financial professionals, in February.May you learn to live—not at your limit—but at your best, in the freedom and rest God provides.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Can you explain the pros and cons of taking Social Security at 62 versus waiting until full retirement age? By 62, I'll be mostly debt-free, and since longevity doesn't run in my family, I'm wondering if it makes sense to claim early while my quality of life is higher and still work within the income limits.When should someone update their will? I'm 58, debt-free, still working, and have a solid 401(k). Should I consider setting up a trust, and how do I know when that becomes the wise choice, especially since it costs more?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)At Your Best: How to Get Time, Energy, and Priorities Working in Your Favor by Carey NieuwhofDidn't See It Coming: Overcoming the Seven Greatest Challenges That No One Expects and Everyone Experiences by Carey NieuwhofThe Carey Nieuwhof Leadership PodcastRedeeming Money 2026: A Kingdom Advisors ConferenceWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

Welcome back to the Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T., where we help women build strength from the inside out. Today, we're taking a deep dive into the root of human vitality — the minerals that power every cell in your body. Our guest, Caroline Alan, is the co-founder of BEAM Minerals and a passionate educator on the critical role humic and fulvic substances play in cellular function. Years ago, Caroline found herself stuck in chronic inflammation, adrenal burnout, brain fog, anxiety, and full-body depletion while navigating a stressful corporate career. No matter what supplements she tried, nothing worked — until she discovered humic and fulvic minerals. What happened next completely changed her life. Within months, her inflammation calmed, her adrenals began recovering, her sleep normalized, and her energy returned. A follow-up test showed her adrenal function restored — even though she never took the hydrocortisone her doctor prescribed. The only change she made was adding minerals back into her body. Today, Caroline and her co-founder, Dan Howard, have built BEAM Minerals into one of the cleanest, most trusted mineral lines available — helping thousands restore balance, energy, and resilience at the cellular level. If you've been feeling drained, foggy, anxious, or "off," this conversation will change how you think about minerals, nutrition, and cellular health. UNDERSTANDING MINERALS STARTS IN THE CELLS 1. Caroline's Turning Point What was happening in your body before you discovered minerals? What symptoms were the biggest red flags that something was wrong? How did you find humic and fulvic minerals, and what changes showed up first? 2. Why Modern Humans Are Mineral-Depleted How does soil depletion affect the nutrient content of our food? Can organic food solve the problem, or is supplementation now essential? Why stress, toxins, and processed foods drain minerals faster than we realize. 3. Recognizing Mineral Depletion Common signals: fatigue, anxiety, brain fog, poor sleep, cravings, dehydration, or hormonal instability. Are there accurate ways to test for mineral status? Why hair analysis and tools like Oligoscan may provide better insight than blood tests. 4. Getting Minerals Back Into the Body What makes humic and fulvic minerals different from typical mineral supplements? Why the body absorbs minerals only when they're delivered in the right ratios. What people should know about electrolyte packets, mineral blends, and isolated supplements. How to begin replenishing safely and effectively. 5. Real Results & Cellular Homeostasis How restoring mineral balance changes energy, sleep, mood, and hormone function. Why cellular homeostasis is the foundation of vitality.   BEAM Minerals https://beamminerals.com Mineral Geek (Educational Resource) https://mineralgeek.com Instagram — Caroline Alan https://instagram.com/carolinealan.official Discount for Sisterhood of Sweat Listeners: Code: SOS SWEAT (all caps) for 20% off

In this episode, Ben breaks down the right way to use apple cider vinegar for fat loss, gut health, and stable energy. ACV only works when taken at the correct timing, and most people unknowingly do it wrong, which leads to cravings, blood sugar crashes, and zero progress. Ben explains why 10–20 minutes before your biggest meal is the sweet spot for lowering blood sugar spikes, improving insulin sensitivity, reducing cravings, and activating your fat-burning pathways. He also covers the benefits for acid reflux, GERD, bloating, and digestion — and why low stomach acid is the hidden reason many people struggle with gut issues. You'll learn the ideal dosage, the difference between liquid ACV and supplements, why many gummies are useless, and a minute-by-minute breakdown of what ACV does inside your body. Ben also answers the most common listener questions about fasting, warm water, morning routines, and long-term use. FREE GUIDE: The World's Easiest Breakfast Diet - https://bit.ly/48KybFp 

Is there such a thing as a "narcissistic collapse" — or is it just another trend designed to keep you scrolling at 2 AM looking for answers to why your relationship is the number one source of your frustration? Tony answers an email from a listener who keeps seeing videos promising that 2025 will be "the year of the narcissistic collapse"—the moment when the mask finally falls off, and everyone sees the truth. Cosmic justice would finally be served, and he would immediately feel a sense of relief, and either his partner would now become the person he'd always dreamed of, or he would undoubtedly find his soulmate within minutes after the collapse. And they would ride off into the sunset together. Tony breaks down the email line by line and unpacks everything from emotional immaturity and projection, the danger of couples therapy with the narcissist, to the continuing trap of trying to give your partner an epiphany. But the real conversation is about what narcissistic collapse actually is — and more importantly, what it isn't. Here's what the internet won't tell you: A narcissistic collapse isn't a sign of their progress. It's a sign of yours. They're not collapsing because they've changed. They're collapsing because you have — and the system that kept them emotionally afloat is breaking down. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why asking "Am I the narcissist?" almost always means you're not - The difference between reactive abuse and actual instability — and why therapists often get it wrong - How your vulnerability becomes an "attack surface" in emotionally immature relationships - What the research actually says about narcissistic injury, decompensation, and collapse - Why your growth equals their loss of control — and your calm equals their panic - David Schnarch's theory on differentiation, and his Four Points of Balance that make real change possible - How to stop selling yourself on a destination of hope and start building the vehicle that will truly take you where you need to go If you've ever scrolled through narcissism content at 2 AM looking for answers, this one's for you. 00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview 00:38 Listener Email: A Muse for Self-Discovery 01:00 Defining a Muse in Everyday Life 01:55 Listener's Struggle: Emotional Immaturity and Narcissism 02:28 The Narcissistic Collapse: Fact or Fiction? 02:51 Listener's Background and Marriage Issues 03:30 Therapy and Self-Doubt 03:51 Emotional Immaturity's Impact on Vulnerability 04:06 The Epiphany Trap and Anxious Attachment 04:35 Couples Therapy Pitfalls 05:18 The Role of Social Media in Coping 19:45 Reactive Abuse and Emotional Safety 28:01 The 5-4-3-2-1 Countdown Technique 29:09 Understanding Narcissistic Collapse 30:08 The Origin and Impact of Narcissistic Injury 30:39 The Role of Boundaries in Narcissistic Collapse 31:21 Emotional Immaturity and Defensive Structures 36:13 The Process of Differentiation 37:51 The Importance of Self-Validation 38:26 The Narcissistic Collapse as a Sign of Your Progress 44:10 Selling the Destination vs. Building the Vehicle 47:12 The Reality of Transformation and Healing 52:10 Final Thoughts and Encouragement Women navigating emotionally immature relationships: come join Tony's private women's Facebook group.

3/8. Ten Thousand Years of Kinship: Native American Hunter-Gatherers and Ecological Balance — Dan Flores — Following the Pliocene extinction event, North America entered a 10,000-year period characterized by hunter-gatherer societies achieving sophisticated ecological equilibrium. Flores documents that Native American peoples consciously maintained deliberately restricted human populations (fewer than five million inhabitants) to preserve biodiversity and prevent further species loss, resulting in only one documented extinction during this extended period. Flores emphasizes that these indigenous societies conceptualized wild animals as kin, celebrating them through oral traditions, stories, and sacred ceremonies, with coyote and raven functioning as ancient deities and archetypal trickster figures within cosmological frameworks. 1870
