It started with a bold question that showed up in a public comment: "If infinite banking is so powerful, why wouldn't I just put all my income into a whole life policy?" That single comment sparked a deeply layered, thoughtful conversation that we knew needed more attention. It wasn't criticism. It was curiosity. And curiosity, when channeled with wisdom and humility, can be a catalyst for generational transformation. So today, we're opening up that conversation—and giving you the full picture of what it really means to go "all in" with infinite banking. What You're Really Asking When You Consider Putting All Your Income into a Whole Life PolicyShould You Really Put All Your Income into a Whole Life Policy? (The Real Answer May Surprise You)The Spirit Behind the Question Think Long Range: The Power of Time Don't Be Afraid to Capitalize—But Be Strategic Policy Design: Base vs. PUA, and Why It Matters Understand Insurability and Premium Affordability Sustainability Is Freedom The Danger of Over-Leveraging and Poor RepaymentWhy All Your Income into a Whole Life Policy Shouldn't Be Your Only StrategyBook A Strategy Call What You're Really Asking When You Consider Putting All Your Income into a Whole Life Policy The idea of putting all your income into a whole life policy sounds bold—even radical. And in the context of the infinite banking concept (IBC), it's a question worth exploring. As someone who's lived and breathed this philosophy, I (Rachel Marshall) have heard this question before. And in this conversation with my colleague Joe DeFazio, we wanted to approach it with both clarity and candor. Because here's the truth: Yes, whole life insurance and infinite banking can be incredibly powerful tools for financial freedom, stewardship, and legacy-building. But like any strategy, the design and implementation matter. In this article, we're going to unpack the principles behind the idea of putting all your income into a whole life policy, the risks, the benefits, and most importantly—the mindset that helps you use this tool to its fullest, most sustainable potential. You'll learn: - Why infinite banking isn't just about the numbers—it's about long-term thinking - The role of policy design and insurability - How to balance capitalization with sustainability - Why freedom comes through commitment Let's dive in. Should You Really Put All Your Income into a Whole Life Policy? (The Real Answer May Surprise You) If you're asking whether to put all your income into a whole life policy, you're not alone. It's a question we hear often—and for good reason. The Infinite Banking Concept is compelling. It gives you control, liquidity, privacy, and long-term access to capital. It feels like the financial tool we've all been waiting for—and in many ways, it is. But let's be clear: Infinite Banking is a system. Not a silver bullet. Going "all in" on a whole life policy without the right structure is like planting seeds without soil. Yes, premium matters. But without a clear understanding of how that premium fits into your broader wealth strategy, you could easily find yourself over-leveraged and cash-strapped. Nelson Nash taught us that capitalization is essential, but he never said to abandon wisdom in the process. That's why our answer is almost always: no, don't put all your income into a policy. Instead, fund it based on your long-term strategy, your liquidity needs, your investing rhythm, and your ability to keep the policy active through every season of life. Think marathon, not sprint. When clients ask this question, we gently guide them back to the deeper one: What are you really trying to build? Because when you understand the real vision, your policy becomes a tool—not a trap. The Spirit Behind the Question We weren't offended by the question. Quite the opposite. It takes courage to ask, "Why not go all in?" But before we can even answer that,

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 742 Is your fear of suffering keeping you from discovering the deepest treasures of your soul? Author and extreme adventurer, Akshay Nanavati, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 742, to share how embracing suffering during his 60-day solo crossing of Antarctica became the key to transcending limitations and unlocking pure potential, what his journey taught him about the paradox of oneness, and why the only way out of suffering is through it. "When you stop resisting suffering, it frees you from the grasp of suffering. It's not the suffering in and of itself that I seek. Suffering is the means, not the purpose. The purpose is what it gives you access to. It's the transcendence, the awakening, the breaking down of the illusions, the surrender." - Akshay Nanavati In This Episode, Akshay Nanavati Uncovers: [01:10] 60 Days Alone in Antarctica Akshay Nanavati 606 Akshay Nanavati | How To Love Your Fear: The (REAL) Secret To Unlocking Your Pure Potential How the world shows you more about the human soul than any textbook.

How suffering is the means to transcendence. Why pain connects us to God. How Akshay accepts what is instead of resisting suffering. Why comfort is not the enemy. [26:45] Pure Experience Why reality is not "either, or." How labels create divisions and limitations. Why words can open the door for us, but can't provide the same value as experience.

Welcome back to the Empower Her Business Accelerator podcast! I'm your host, Philippa Channer, and this month we've been unpacking one of the biggest challenges for entrepreneurs—how to find your ideal content rhythm. Last week, we dove into the balancing act between consistency and content quality. And today, we're shifting gears slightly to tackle the burnout that often comes with trying to “do it all.” If you've ever found yourself staring at your laptop at 11 p.m., scrambling to get something—anything—posted just to stay “consistent,” this episode is for you. In this week's episode, we're addressing how to stay visible online without sacrificing your well-being. Burnout doesn't just drain your energy—it can slowly dismantle your creativity and confidence. That's why we're focusing on how to maintain a content schedule that works with your lifestyle and energy, not against it. You'll walk away with practical, sustainable strategies that help you show up consistently and protect your peace. Let's dive into the key takeaways and steps you can implement today: (01:00) Burnout Isn't Just Fatigue—It's a Red Flag Burnout isn't simply about being tired. It's the physical and mental exhaustion that comes from constant output without rest or reward. It often stems from unrealistic schedules, lack of support, or discouragement from lackluster results. ✨ Action Step: Reflect on your recent content efforts. Are they energizing or depleting you? If it's the latter, it's time to reassess. (02:00) Set a Schedule You Can Actually Sustain A “consistent” schedule doesn't mean daily posting—it means showing up reliably in a way that you can maintain long term. Three high-quality posts a week can be far more effective than seven low-energy ones. ✨ Action Step: Review your current posting calendar. Does it reflect your actual capacity, or are you trying to keep up with someone else's strategy? (03:00) Build in Rest Days—Yes, Really Just like your body needs rest after a workout, your creativity needs space to recharge. Scheduling content off-days helps prevent burnout and keeps your energy flowing. ✨ Action Step: Block out at least one content-free day per week in your calendar. Use this time to rest, reflect, or simply engage without producing. (03:50) Embrace Automation and Batching You don't need to be in content creation mode every day. Use tools like Meta Business Suite, Buffer, or Later to pre-schedule posts. Batching your content creation helps you focus deeply and frees up your weekly bandwidth. ✨ Action Step: Choose one content type this week (social posts, emails, etc.) and batch it out for the next few weeks. Schedule it using your tool of choice. (04:30) Don't Be Afraid to Outsource You don't need to do it all alone. Even hiring a virtual assistant for just 2 hours a week can free you from time-consuming tasks like scheduling, designing, or editing. ✨ Action Step: Identify one task that drains your time and energy. Consider delegating it—even in a small way—to start reclaiming your time. (05:00) Shift Your Mindset About Content Creation Stop viewing content as a daily to-do. Instead, see it as a long-term business asset that can be flexible. Two well-placed, impactful posts can drive more engagement than five rushed ones. ✨ Action Step: Give yourself permission to do less. Test a reduced content load and observe the results. Burnout-proof content strategies are not just about what you post but how and why you do it. Sustainable consistency is the key to showing up for your audience while also showing up for yourself. You can grow your brand without draining your energy—and that's exactly what we're committed to helping you do here.

Parenting an adopted child comes with unique challenges, and healing starts with you. Here's how to truly support your adopted child and yourself. Hi Neighbor, Navigating the intricate journey of adoptive parenting presents unexpected hurdles, especially when trauma, healing, and family history are involved.  Today's segment, Don't Be Afraid to Go to Therapy, comes from Episode 183. As adoptive parents, it's okay to seek therapy for yourself. Healing starts with us.  When parents seek help for themselves first, it sends a vital message: everyone needs support sometimes. It also prevents children from feeling like they're “the problem” and shows that healing is a family journey. I want to encourage you to listen, take notes, and sit with the idea or ideas that speak to you. Facing our own history can open doors for our kids to heal, too. Anchors of Hope and Healing are on the way. Your Neighbor, Tim P.S. You're not alone in this journey. If you haven't joined our private community, consider this an invitation. It's a safe space to share your struggles and triumphs with fellow adoptive parents who truly understand what you're going through.

Imagine sitting in a room full of financial professionals, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders, all gathered with a shared mission—to gain clarity, deepen understanding, and refine strategies for implementing Infinite Banking. That's exactly what happened at the Nelson Nash Institute Think Tank 2025, and today, we're sharing the most impactful takeaways with you. https://www.youtube.com/live/qTqZo7AvS88 Bruce and Becca just got back from this annual gathering, where the best minds in Infinite Banking come together to ensure that Nelson Nash's legacy remains strong and relevant. I (Rachel) wasn't able to attend in person this year, but listening to their insights and stories makes me even more eager to go in the future. If you've ever wondered how to simplify the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC) and use it effectively in today's financial climate, you'll want to read on. What is the Nelson Nash Institute Think Tank? And Why Does It Matter?1. Do Simple Better2. Think Long Range and Don't Be Afraid to Capitalize3. Don't Do Business with Banks4. Differentiate Between the Process and the Product5. The Role of Whole Life Insurance vs. IUL (Indexed Universal Life)Take Control of Your Financial FutureBook A Strategy Call What is the Nelson Nash Institute Think Tank? And Why Does It Matter? If you're not familiar, the Think Tank is an annual conference hosted by the Nelson Nash Institute (NNI). It's designed for authorized practitioners, students of Infinite Banking, and selected clients who want to understand the deeper nuances of IBC. It's not just a networking event—it's a mastermind of like-minded individuals dedicated to financial autonomy. Nelson Nash started this event over 20 years ago as a way to keep the message pure—to prevent the Infinite Banking Concept from being diluted or sensationalized. Unfortunately, we see confusion in the marketplace today, with different variations of Infinite Banking being promoted under flashy names like “accelerated banking” or “infinite wealth systems.” The Think Tank exists to bring clarity and help authorized practitioners share the true power of Infinite Banking with their clients. Here's what we learned this year: 1. Do Simple Better One of the key messages from this year's Think Tank was keeping the concept simple. Too often, people overcomplicate Infinite Banking, adding unnecessary complexity that confuses clients. One common example? The language we use. Bruce pointed out a pet peeve of his—calling policy premiums “deposits.” Some advisors use this terminology because they think clients will shut down if they hear the word “premium.” But this causes confusion. A premium is not a bank deposit. It's a strategic payment into a life insurance policy that provides long-term benefits. When we use clear, honest language, we empower people to make informed decisions. The key takeaway: Clarity leads to confidence. If you want to succeed with Infinite Banking, simplify the process, use the right terminology, and avoid unnecessary complexity. 2. Think Long Range and Don't Be Afraid to Capitalize One of the biggest mistakes people make with Infinite Banking is short-term thinking. Nelson Nash emphasized the importance of capitalization—funding your policy properly so you can reap the benefits later. At the Think Tank, Bruce and Becca discussed the trend of minimizing base premiums to maximize early cash value. While this might seem attractive at first, it contradicts the foundational principles of IBC. A well-funded policy—one with an appropriate base premium—is what creates sustainable, long-term growth. Becca shared a powerful insight: “Your behavior matters more than the product.” The Infinite Banking Concept isn't just about whole life insurance—it's about how you use it. If you're not willing to think long-term and capitalize your system, you won't see the full benefits. 3. Don't Do Business with Banks

What if the key to generational wealth was hidden in a 92-page book written over 25 years ago?In this episode of Remnant Finance, we dive deep into the fundamentals of the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC) by revisiting Nelson Nash's five core principles from his groundbreaking book "Becoming Your Own Banker." After exploring various financial topics in recent episodes, the conversation returns to the bedrock principles that make IBC such a powerful financial strategy.The discussion breaks down each principle—Think Long Term, Don't Be Afraid to Capitalize, Don't Steal the Peas, Don't Do Business with Banks, and Rethink Your Thinking—while exploring how they interconnect to create a comprehensive approach to personal finance. These aren't just abstract concepts but practical guidelines for creating a sustainable financial legacy.Beyond just financial strategy, the episode explores how these principles can transform your approach to all areas of life and create multi-generational wealth that benefits your family for decades to come.Think Long Term: The importance of shifting away from our culture's instant gratification mindset. Emphasis on thinking 30, 40, even 70 years into the future and planning for multiple generations, not just immediate returns. A detailed explanation of how whole life insurance provides guaranteed contractual growth that can benefit your grandchildren and beyond.Don't Be Afraid to Capitalize: The concept of capitalizing your system—not as investing, but as building potential energy within your personal economy. Using the metaphor of "damming a river" to control your financial flow rather than letting money simply pass through your life. Encouragement to pay meaningful premiums that might stretch you slightly but remain manageable.Don't Steal the Peas: Using Nash's grocery store analogy to explain the importance of being an honest banker to yourself. This means paying back policy loans with appropriate interest, even when borrowing from your own cash value. A discussion on how this practice builds your capital pool and benefits your entire system.Don't Do Business with Banks: While acknowledging that most people need to maintain at least a checking account, a discussion about Nash's principle of eventually eliminating dependence on traditional banking institutions.

Short episode summaryIn this episode of the RunRX podcast, Coach Caroline and Valerie answer questions about self-care and the use of a roller to recover from an injury.Timestamps of big takeawaysRolling For Your Injuries[01:03] Getting the roller out and using is a challenge for many people. If you have an injury, you need to be very careful. The goal is to be pain-free, but a roller might not feel great. Work with quality, not quantity, and spend five to ten minutes with mindfulness.Normalizing Self-care[3:56] You must begin to normalize self-care, and it must become a part of your daily routine. If you're going to stand up and walk out of a room, why not take a second to stand in the doorway, and stretch? Put your arms on the door frame, open your shoulders and chest, and spend at least three to five minutes stretching, three times a day. This will help you build some consistency.Working With Injuries[05:30] You must break your fascia and scar tissue after an injury. If you have a knot in your shoulder, this is the protective tissue trying to heal the inflamed area. That is why the rollers are so effective. If you don't have a roller, try self-massaging. Do whatever it takes to work on that area and achieve a full range of motion for blood to flow and heal the area.Good Pain Vs. Bad Pain[06:51] You can generally feel how much pressure you can apply on yourself. That's important because if you find an area that's bruised, you know to massage around the area and get good blood flow around the area. But of course, if it hurts to touch, stop it, no there's no glory in hurting yourself. If it hurts too badly, you may want to seek help. We're not medical professionals and we can't diagnose you.[9:20] Coach Valerie experienced breaking her feet. Learning from her experience, massaging your body or doing some footwork when your body is in pain is a way of connecting with your own body.Don't Be Afraid to Take Care of Your Injuries[10:54] Coach Valerie and Caroline want you not to be afraid that you'll hurt yourself more. Take the time, do three minutes, and then when you get home, do the 20 minutes. You can also keep a foot roller under your chair. You don't even have to take your socks off.Rate, Review & Subscribe ReminderDon't forget to like and subscribe to our show. You can also rate and review our show on Apple Podcasts!

In every sales conversation, there comes that moment when you're so excited about what you do, you want to share everything you know. But that is often a mistake, as Janice Porter, a LinkedIn trainer and relationship marketing strategist explained in our conversation, for the What Went Wrong Series Janice found herself giving away premium insights during free webinars and initial consultations. Like many of us who started as educators, her natural instinct to teach was getting in the way of building a sustainable business.    During our conversation, Janice shared her journey of learning to balance generosity with strategy, walking the fine line between offering value and undervaluing your own work. Here are the key takeaways from our discussion: Stop Giving Away the Store - The key is to give enough value to demonstrate expertise while leaving room for clients to want more. Finding Balance in Presentations - Instead of solving every problem upfront, focus on sparking curiosity. Let potential clients see what you can do without showing them how to do it all themselves. Master the Art of Listening - Whether you're pitching a product or networking, ask thoughtful questions and tailor your responses to what the other person truly needs. It's not about overwhelming them with information but finding the right “hook” to keep them engaged. Don't Be Afraid to Ask for the Sale -  Set expectations early in a conversation, like letting prospects know you'll be discussing next steps, makes that final question feel natural instead of pushy. Actionable Takeaway If you find yourself “giving away the store,” step back and evaluate how much value you're offering in your initial interactions. Practice holding back just enough to leave clients curious, and don't shy away from asking for the sale. Balance teaching with selling, and you'll see your efforts turn into results.

Summary: *Suffering Well: Heather discusses the concept of suffering well, emphasizing the importance of maintaining faith and finding peace in the presence of God, even amidst life's most painful trials. *Christ as a Model: The conversation delves into how Jesus' suffering and obedience to God serve as a model for Christians to follow in their own times of hardship. *Loss of a Child: Heather shares the heart-wrenching story of losing her four-month-old son, Brennan, which became a catalyst for her deepened relationship with Jesus and a transformative moment in her faith journey. *Challenges with Mental Illness: She recounts the struggles with her other son, Nate, who battled mental health issues, and how this experience taught her about spiritual warfare and the power of persistent prayer. *The Presence of God: Heather repeatedly emphasizes the unparalleled peace and joy found in God's presence, which she describes as the ultimate reward for enduring suffering with faith. *Miracles in the Journey: She highlights that the miracle often lies in the journey itself rather than an immediate resolution, and how persistence in faith can lead to profound personal and spiritual growth. *Persistence in Prayer: Heather encourages believers to persist in prayer and not give up, even when immediate answers are not apparent. She uses biblical references, such as the persistent widow and the story of Jericho, to illustrate the importance of enduring faith. *Spiritual Warfare and Authority: She discusses the importance of recognizing and combating spiritual attacks, particularly those targeting one's family, and the necessity of standing firm in faith. Intro: Author and Women's Ministry Leader, Heather Bradley shares her profound experiences and insights on the theme of "suffering well". Heather's journey through personal tragedies and challenges highlights the intersection of suffering, faith, and the transformative power of a relationship with God. Heather herself has been challenged with this very thing not once but twice and both of those instances had to do with 2 of her children, both sons. She refers to these seasons of life as her "even if" and "even though” stories.  God didn't move His hand to change Heather's 4 month old son's health issues and her baby boy, Brennan passed into the arms of Jesus. When her other son, Nathan was 6 years old the family experienced his overnight transformation into a mental and emotional journey of pure exhauston lasting 10 years before God moved His hand to change Nathan's health condition.  How do we suffer well when the One who could change our circumstance doesn't or at the very least He waits an awfully long time?  But hold on to this truth…we don't need to fear the painful valleys in this life, and it has nothing to do with sidestepping or avoiding the pain itself. Nobody this side of heaven avoids trauma and suffering. But if you're a believer in Christ our suffering and pain are turned into purpose.  We're transformed, refined and walking in a deeper level of intimacy with and freedom in Christ. There is nothing in this life that compares to the peace and joy that God can give in the very midst of traumatic pain and suffering. That's why no weapon formed against us shall prosper. If we give God space to speak into our pain, to answer the cries of our heart, comfort us when the answers won't come, He gives us the beauty of His presence that overwhelms our pain. So Heather and I made it a point to talk about the struggles and realities faced by many Christians, particularly in the United States, who often perceive faith as a pathway to unending joy and favor, devoid of pain and suffering. However, Heather's journey illustrates that suffering can coexist with divine joy, favor, and anointing, revealing a more complex, yet enriching, narrative of faith. The truth is, God is in the business of transforming us using the very pain that was supposed to destroy us. In sharing her journey, Heather not only provides insight into her personal trials but also offers a message of encouragement for others navigating their own paths of suffering. Her story is a testament to the transformative power of faith and the beauty that can emerge from the ashes of our pain.  As believers, we are reminded that suffering is not the end of our story. God transforms all the weapons formed against us for our good and His glory. To me, being held in God's secure embrace, is the safest place to be in the most unstable environment I've ever know. Let's listen in to hear the wisdom that Heather shares, may your heart be encouraged!

She is passionate about helping people walk through the hard things of life.  A Texas girl at heart, but loves the adventure of going to new places. She has been married to the love of her life, Kelly, for over 29 years and they have 4 children. They homeschooled their kiddos and have lived all over the USA, but are happy to be home in Austin during this season.  You will typically find her serving at her local church, that they help plant, in pastoral care and women's ministry. She received her Bachelor's Degree in Education. Later she attended Bible School and has been ordained in pastoral ministry.  Heather love's gardening, reading books, trying new recipes, and traveling. Her favorite pace to be is sitting down for coffee with others while listening to them share their life stories. The latest news is she is a first time grandmother! So, her new name is Gigi!  Heather co-host's a podcast, called Leaving The Shallows, with her good friend-where they help listeners leave the shallow end and go into the deeper things of God. Her prayer is that others would know the love of Jesus in their hardest moments here on earth and experience His healing and purpose and know that He is always with them.

What to listen for:Our hosts, Robin Greubel, Stacy Barnett, and Crystal Wing, reflect on their recent two-part conversation with Denise Fenzi and her strategies for ensuring steady, measurable progress when training your dog.“Learning is a fragile place. Being correct is a reward in itself.”Denise is a staunch advocate for finding your compass—a guiding principle that does wonders not just in your career as a handler, but in your personal life as well. This, along with understanding that learning requires humility, is key to navigating the chain of complex behaviors your dog goes through in the field.“If you want your dog's behavior to change, you have to change yours first.”Self-reflection was another key theme in their chat with Denise, who explained that successful handlers see vulnerability as a superpower when training their dog. That's why it's important to track progress not just by skills learned but by demeanor as well. And as you monitor that progress, Denise encourages going for slow, gradual tweaks to prevent overwhelm.Finally, the Dames of Detection give their take on Denise's philosophy around repetition and rewards. In particular, they break down the power of structuring your training around five repetitions per command, and why it pays to embrace creativity and pattern interrupts when your training hits a slump.Key Topics:Find Your Compass (02:06)Learning is a Fragile Place (09:13)The Value of Self-Reflection (14:03)The Power of Minor Tweaks (21:53)What to Know About Repetition in Training (29:12)Don't Be Afraid of Trying Something New (42:25)“Let's Go!”: A Case Study (50:10)Upcoming Events and Happenings!

Don't Be Afraid | Pastor Jarod Smith In his Christmas message, "Don't Be Afraid", Pastor Jarod highlights this profound message found throughout the Christmas story, particularly in the context of the shepherds encountering the angels. He emphasizes that fear is a natural response to God's glory, but faith and intimacy with God can transform this fear into worship. While many of us may acknowledge God's existence, the deeper issue lies in our reluctance to grow closer to Him. We are encouraged to embrace an intimate relationship with God, being assured that His love invites us to draw near without fear. ____ Partner with New Tribe: Give | https://newtribe.church/give/ ____ Connect with New Tribe: Website | https://newtribe.church/comeexperience/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/newtribechurch Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/newtribechurch YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/newtribechurch

Barry Minkow Exposes Multifamily Syndication Fraud: Insights From A Convicted Felon Now Working With the FBI!The multifamily syndication market is booming, but beneath the glossy marketing materials and promises of high returns lurks a darker side: widespread fraud. Today's podcast features Barry Minkow, a reformed businessman, preacher, and former convict, who brings a unique perspective to the world of distressed debt and real estate investing. He shares his insights into the often-hidden dangers of multifamily syndication schemes.Barry isn't your typical real estate expert. His experiences, including a stint in federal prison for fraud, give him a firsthand understanding of the deceptive tactics used by some promoters. His perspective is invaluable for investors looking to avoid costly mistakes. He warns against the hype surrounding Reg D offerings, emphasizing the importance of independent verification and due diligence. He says, "Don't rely on glossy marketing materials alone. Dig deeper. Verify everything. Because what looks too good to be true, usually is."Here are five key takeaways from Barry's insights:Beware of Overly High Returns: Multifamily syndications often promise unrealistic returns. Barry cautions investors to be wary of deals offering unusually high yields, as these may be indicators of fraudulent schemes. (He humorously calls this kind of promising "the lipstick on a pig" approach.)Independent Verification is Crucial: Don't blindly trust the information provided by promoters. Conduct thorough due diligence, including obtaining independent appraisals and reviewing financial statements, before investing. Barry's own experiences highlight the consequences of neglecting this crucial step. “Trust, but verify,” he says, a lesson he learned the hard way.Understand the Numbers: Analyze financial statements closely to avoid being misled by inflated numbers. Barry stresses the importance of understanding key metrics like LTV (loan-to-value ratio), occupancy rates, and debt service coverage ratios. “If the numbers don't add up, they're probably lying,” he warns, with a wink.Look for Red Flags: Barry points out several red flags to watch out for, including unrealistic projections, lack of transparency, and aggressive marketing tactics. He recommends paying close attention to the details; if something feels off, it probably is.Don't Be Afraid to Ask Questions: Barry emphasizes the importance of asking tough questions and challenging the information presented by promoters. Don't be afraid to ask follow up questions; if the promoter is trying to obfuscate information, it's a major red flag.Barry's insights offer a much-needed dose of reality in an otherwise overly hyped market. He urges investors to exercise caution, perform thorough due diligence, and prioritize financial literacy. The consequences of fraud can be devastating – financial ruin, legal battles, and even criminal charges. It's far more prudent to protect your investment by asking questions, performing due diligence, and making informed decisions.You can find Barry Minkow on Instagram (@MinkoBarry) and TikTok (@OneMinuteFraud). Remember, in the world of real estate investing, knowledge is power – and due diligence is your best defense.Watch the original VIDEO HERE!Book a call with SCOTT HERE!Love the show?

Book Vs. Movie: The FlyThe 1957 Short Story Vs. the 1986 MovieThe Margos feature The Fly this month with special guest Patrick Bromley, who hosts the excellent F This Movie podcast. The 1957 short story and the 1986 film share the core premise of a scientist merging with a fly during a teleportation experiment, but they have different approaches. George Langelaan's story focuses on the emotional and ethical fallout, depicting science as perilous when unchecked. David Cronenberg's adaptation emphasizes the grotesque consequences of scientific overreach, blending body horror with a profound sense of loss.Langelaan's story explores guilt, tragedy, and the limits of science, while Cronenberg's film focuses on the horror of losing one's humanity physically and mentally. Both versions are haunting, but Cronenberg's film expands the original premise into a deeply personal horror, highlighting the darker sides of human ambition.

As a driven entrepreneur, you likely pride yourself on being self-reliant and handling everything on your own. Yet, deep down, you know that to grow your business and thrive, you need to lean on your team more. In this episode of Leadership is Feminine, host Kris Plachy explores the challenge many Gen X women entrepreneurs face: asking for and accepting support. Raised with a strong sense of independence, you might struggle to delegate, and when others fall short, it's tempting to just do it yourself. But what if, instead of rescuing everyone, you could guide them—and in the process, free up your own time and energy? Kris shares her strategies on maintaining emotional balance when dealing with disappointments, and how to guide others through their errors, instead of rescuing them. She encourages us to assess situations pragmatically, rather than letting our emotional tolerance dictate our response to setbacks. As you tune into this episode, discover a new leadership mindset that fosters support, maturity and growth. You won't want to miss out on Kris's guidance on how to accept and cultivate support and step out of managing and into leading, as the visionary you are. “‘No one can do it better than me.' That is the most painful lie you're telling yourself. And who cares if they can't do it better than you or as well as you? You know what they can do? They can do it well, and they can do it well based on their brain, as long as your results are specific.” Key Takeaways From This Episode Understanding Gen X Female Entrepreneurs: The struggle to accept help due to the innate need for independence. The Problem with Self-Reliance: The high bar set for others while simultaneously experiencing exhaustion of trying to do it all. Allowing Employees to Make Mistakes: Understanding that employees will inevitably make mistakes, taking on their responsibilities will not make it any easier. Managing Emotional Response to Mistakes: The need for flexible thinking and being able to objectively assess problems. Leading through Others' Mistakes: The need for leaders to guide their employees through the resolution process of their mistakes rather than fixing it themselves To Listen to the Gen-X Women Founders Mini Series Part 1: “GenX Women Founders: A Generation of Leaders that is Changing the World” Part 2: “The Sandwich Generation: How Gen X Women Balance Business, Family, and Aging Parent” Part 3: “GenX Women Founders: Confronting Imposter Syndrome in Gen X Women's Leadership” Part 4: “Gen X Women Founders: How Can WE of All Women on the Planet, Be Afraid of Change?” Part 5: “Gen X Women Founders: Our Collective Emotional Load” Contact Information and Recommended Resources Get Access to LEAD LESSONS Lead for Women is now open for advanced registration!

Episode 2536 - On this Wednesday show, Vinnie Tortorich and Gina Grad say don't be afraid of salt, discuss the benefits of electrolytes, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2024/09/dont-be-afraid-of-salt-episode-2536 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Don't Be Afraid of Salt After some talk about music and sound systems, Gina asks about water, salt, carbs, and bloating. (5:30) The salt-to-water ratio has to be correct. A good electrolyte blend with proper ratios is best; however, you should also avoid fillers and flow agents. When Vinnie was ultra-cycling, if he had carbs, his ankles would swell. He never had any swelling issues during races when he relied only on salt, healthy fats, and water. (14:00) He makes recommendations on how to take UltraSalt. We blame salt for what sugar did. (18:00) There's a misconception about salt; even hospitals and doctors make poor recommendations.

Interior Design for the Soul: 5 Life Lessons to Elevate Your Self-Image One crucial aspect of embracing contrast in life is recognizing and integrating all facets of oneself, including the shadow side. Tonya Leigh explores the significance of embracing contrast in interior design and how it can be applied to life. Just as in design, where contrasting elements can add depth and richness, embracing the diverse aspects of our personalities enables us to explore neglected or denied facets of ourselves, fostering personal growth and self-acceptance. Tonya stresses the concept of the shadow side, a term introduced by psychologist Carl Jung, which refers to the darker, less desirable aspects of our personalities that we often try to conceal or suppress. She underscores the importance of not only showcasing our positive traits but also acknowledging and accepting the parts of ourselves that may not always be bright and cheerful. Tune in to explore the parallels between interior design choices and self-image transformation.

"The key is to recognize that these contrasts aren't contradictions. They are complementary aspects of your whole self."  "We try to be good at so many different things versus really focusing and harnessing on the things that we're naturally good at." "Remember, just as white space and design allows important elements to stand out, creating space in your life allows priorities to shine through very clearly."
