    The Trident: Leadership Lessons from the Battlefield to the Boardroom This week, Marcus, Melanie welcome an extraordinary warrior, leader, and encourager—Jason Redman, retired Navy SEAL, bestselling author, and one of the most respected voices on resilience and overcoming adversity. Jason served 21 years in the U.S. Navy, including 11 years as an enlisted SEAL and 10 years as a SEAL officer, leading combat operations across the globe. His career is a study in grit, redemption, and relentless dedication—from early deployments in Central and South America to commanding SEAL teams in Iraq and Afghanistan. But Jason's life shifted forever on September 13, 2007, when he was acting as Assault Force Commander during a mission in Iraq. An enemy ambush erupted. Jason was shot eight times, including a devastating gunshot wound to the face. His team fought through, secured the target, and saved his life. What followed was a recovery few could imagine: 40 surgeries, months in the hospital, and a battle not just for survival, but for identity, leadership, and purpose. Jason didn't just recover—he returned to active duty and continued serving until retirement in 2013. His courage, valor, and leadership earned him the Purple Heart, Bronze Star with Valor, and the respect of warriors around the world. Why This Episode Matters Jason Redman has become one of the most powerful voices in America on resilience. His life is proof that the human spirit can rise, rebuild, and lead again—no matter the setback. Whether you're fighting through a personal battle, searching for purpose, or simply need a reminder of what true grit looks like, Jason's story will challenge, encourage, and strengthen you. In this episode you will hear: • The very first book I bought about the SEAL teams - I was in a truck stop and there was a case of books you could buy for a buck. There was a book about SEAL operations in Vietnam. Four years later, I checked into SEAL Team 4. (6:22) • I was about 95lbs and 5' tall at 15, and that recruiter took one look at me, and was like: “You are not what the SEALS are looking for.” (7:40) • There are way more operational opportunities for enlisted SEALS than there are for officers. (20:44) • Seaman to Admiral takes individuals who don't have a degree. They send them to school. It's an accelerated program. You're part of the ROTC program. You commission out of that and you come back as a SEAL officer. (24:02) • We were all bleeding so bad, and it created this mist in the helicopter of blood. The entire inside of the helicopter was coated in blood. (43:06) • My recovery time took 4 years and 40 surgeries to put me back together. (43:38) • Be thankful for the hardships you have in life and for hard things that happen because I think they set you up for success in other things. (43:48) • Me failing as a leader was probably the hardest thing I've ever had to come back from. (43:56) • Lead yourself, Lead others, Lead always. (44:39) • [Marcus] When he was in the hospital, he wrote on a bright orange piece of paper and tacked it on the door. And he wrote this letter saying “Don't come in here feeling sorry for me. I will overcome.” (48:48) • It's amazing when you're around Christians who have a appreciation for the world and a love of Christ and a love of humanity. (51:07) • These are questions I like to ask veterans: “What do you want to accomplish? What is your American dream? (53:52) • Whether you're starting your own business, or you're a leader in a business, we need you. This country needs you.

Jake has become one of the most recognizable culinary voices of his generation, building an empire at the intersection of food, culture and social media. Jake has used his creativity to turn recipes into a thriving brand. His cookbooks Jew-ish, I Could Nosh, and his recent release Dinner Party Animal became instant bestsellers - earning praise for blending nostalgia with modern flavor, and for celebrating heritage beyond food. Jake is a master of brand strategy. Through his Wake and Jake platform, he has launched partnerships with major brands, developed original media content, and positioned himself as a culinary entrepreneur, redefining what it means to build a kitchen brand in a digital age.  Jake Cohen dives into his unconventional career path—jumping from the Culinary Institute of America into a 3-star Michelin kitchen, navigating low-paying editorial roles, test kitchens, and even a year as a Time Out New York food critic—all while staying true to himself and chasing an end goal he couldn't yet fully see. He breaks down the realities of making ends meet, the differences between editorial and commercial shoots, how labor impacts the way he approaches dining out, and why maintaining a healthy relationship with social media matters. Jake opens up about his first cookbook pitch getting rejected, the surprising cost of cookbook photography, taking creative control of his team after book one, nearly joining a culinary hype house, and his “don't put all your eggs in one basket” philosophy. He also shares how his Hulu show Jake Makes It Easy came together, when he knew he had the makings of a reality star, the power of word-of-mouth momentum, and closes with rapid fire questions.

    Good-hearted country boy Petie Miller vanishes without a trace two days before his wedding in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley in 1983. Some speculate it's a case of cold feet, but investigators suspect cold-blooded murder. The bride's stepfather, a violent career criminal named Charlie Almond, is the prime suspect. Circumstantial evidence suggests that Almond killed Miller and successfully disposed of the body. But with no witnesses, no forensic evidence, and no body, Almond is allowed to walk free. Meanwhile, Miller's father never stops seeking answers about what happened to his son. For three decades, he tirelessly pushes the investigation forward, imploring the authorities to keep his son's case file open. Finally, thirty-two years later in 2015, new witnesses emerge and Almond, now an octogenarian, is charged with first-degree murder. Chances of a guilty verdict seem slim, but special prosecutor Phil Figura, known in courtrooms as the “Dragonslayer,” is determined to bring justice. Can Figura win a conviction in the oldest, coldest “no body” murder trial in United States history?Bestselling true crime author Ron Peterson, Jr. was provided exclusive access to the police case file to research this compelling story, interviewing over fifty sources, including family members of both Petie Miller and Charlie Almond, and working closely with prosecutor Phil Figura and lead investigator Aaron LeVeck.In a case where justice seems impossible, could the truth finally prevail—or will a killer once again slip away? RUNAWAY GROOM: Cold Feet—or Cold-Blooded Murder?—Ron Peterson Jr.

What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Andrew Griffiths says that if he could give advice to himself on day one of starting his business, he would tell himself to trust his intuition, because many of the business mistakes he made over the years were situations where his gut was right, but he ignored it and let logic overrule it.  Book a 20-minute Growth Chat with Troy Trewin to see if you qualify for our upcoming course.

    Ever find yourself grinding harder and harder in your business… yet still feeling like you're not scaling fast enough, earning enough, or leading at the level you know you're capable of? Like you're giving everything you've got—but something in your offer, your mindset, or your strategy just isn't hitting?In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm resharing the Guest Guru Training that Bedros Keuilian delivered exclusively to our Happy Hustle Club and trust me, this is the kind of value most people pay five figures to access.If you don't already know Bedros, he's a Wall Street Journal bestselling author, the founder of the 500+ location Fit Body Bootcamp franchise, the creator of Trulean Wellness Shot (over 2M units sold), a serial investor, and one of the most in-demand high-performance coaches in the game. He's also a husband, father, and one of the rawest, realest entrepreneurs you will ever learn from.This training is all about money, meaning, and mindset and Bedros doesn't hold back. He breaks down the exact frameworks he's used to build and scale multiple 8–9 figure companies, the mistakes that nearly took him out, and the three principles that helped him generate hundreds of millions over the last 15 years.He shares what it really takes to structure irresistible offers, why most entrepreneurs are drowning in commodity pricing, and how to dominate your niche by becoming the recognized authority (and eventually, the celebrity) in your space. You'll hear behind-the-scenes stories from nearly exiting Fit Body Bootcamp right before the pandemic to cutting 90% of Trulene's product line and accidentally uncovering his most profitable product ever.Here are a few key takeaways from the episode:Irresistible offers aren't optional—they're the backbone of high-profit businesses. If your offer isn't a no-brainer, your customers won't buy.Kill your darlings. Most entrepreneurs cling to products or ideas that drain profit and focus. Letting go is how you scale.Avoid the race to the bottom. Competing on price is death. Differentiate or disappear.Authority creates demand. Stop hiding behind your work—talk about it, create content, get on stages, get on podcasts. Authority makes sales easy.Invest in yourself first. Before real estate, crypto, or anything else—you are the highest ROI asset in your business.Bedros brings the heat, the strategy, and the mindset shifts every entrepreneur needs.

    Michelle "Mace" Curran is a former Thunderbird fighter pilot, author, keynote speaker, and entrepreneur dedicated to empowering others to rise above self-doubt and tackle imposter syndrome head-on. Having flown elite missions and taken on leadership roles within some of the Air Force's most demanding teams, Michelle now leverages her experience to inspire audiences across the country. Through her transition from high-performing military aviator to entrepreneur and thought leader, she's passionate about helping others find their own “because,” lead with trust, and push through fear to leave a real legacy. Michelle's story is one of courage, resilience, and authentic leadership—on and off the runway. Takeaways: Imposter syndrome is universal—even experienced leaders deal with it, and the first step to overcoming it is simply acknowledging it and talking about it openly. Building a high-performing team starts with trust and psychological safety, not just traditional authority—leaders who model vulnerability and accountability foster the strongest cultures. Facing your fears and making progress doesn't require massive leaps; start taking “small, bold choices” to move toward your goals and let your confidence grow one step at a time.  Sound Bites: "The number of experienced leaders who come up after my keynotes and say, 'I feel imposter syndrome every single day'—it's more common than you think." "Trust isn't just a military thing; it's the foundation of every high-performing team. When errors aren't hidden, they're learned from immediately." "Naming your inner critic gives you power over it—it's about recognizing when that voice shows up…and choosing not to listen."

Responding to this change in fortunes is becoming an industry in itself."What Causes Urban Blight -And What Can Be Done About it" ~ February 2023  blog.bluebeam.comMy Guest This Week Has Success in helping Real Estate Properties & Communities RevitalizeBlighted is a powerful narrative about the decades-long decay and remarkable two-year reinvention of Summerdale, an aging apartment community located in one of Atlanta's grittiest corridors. From burnt-out, mold-infested buildings to traumatized classrooms, Blighted unfolds in the voices of ruthless drug dealers, phantom tenants, fearless landlords, the working poor, educators, and visionary local leaders.After purchasing the property from an absentee overseas owner, Marjy Stagmeier and her partners methodically tackled the crisis festering inside the gated 244-unit apartment property. Two years of relentless work later, Stagmeier reveals how the team that she led built community from chaos. Through on-the-ground, in-the-moment interviews with a wide range of stakeholders, Stagmeier demonstrates how marginalized housing perpetuates intergenerational poverty and the collapse of nearby public schools while showing the multifaceted challenges of improving dire living conditions.Blighted offers a unique insider perspective of the political, human, and economic challenges of delivering equitable housing in a market fueled by inflationary prices, insatiable demand, and competing and often dubious agendas. Summerdale's success is a bright model of how affordable housing, education, healthcare, and social capital can interconnect to build vibrant, sustainable communities―affordable housing communities, nearby schools, and the community at large. From there, kids, families, working people, and neighborhoods can thrive.© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Radio @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

You're not alone, and it's not because you're doing Christianity wrong. It's because you've been believing lies about what a "good Christian life" is supposed to look like. Bestselling author and pastor Gary Thomas will join us to expose twelve subtle but powerful deceptions that quietly drain joy and block intimacy with God and he will show us how to replace them with freeing truth straight from Scripture.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
