Stuck in a business rut? Ready to make the tough call between doubling down or walking away? This episode of “It's The Bottom Line that Matters” pulls no punches. Hosts Jennifer Glass and Patricia Reszetylo team up with guest Daniel McCraine for a dynamic, practical conversation packed with real-world stories and brutally honest guidance on knowing when to “burn it down” or boldly pivot.Jennifer, Daniel, and Patricia break down the emotional traps that keep entrepreneurs hanging on too long—like the fear of quitting right before you strike gold, or the guilt of abandoning your “business baby.” They share how to read the signs in both service and product businesses, why you need to ruthlessly monitor cash flow and metrics, and how to identify when just one employee, product line, or process might be dragging you down. Patricia's firsthand story of pulling the plug on a struggling business provides no-nonsense insight into the moment when enough is enough.But this isn't generic “never give up” advice. The hosts emphasize that sometimes valor means letting go—and that freedom and growth come when you cut your losses based on clear-eyed metrics and honest self-assessment. You'll walk away with sharper confidence, clarity, and the reassurance that savvy entrepreneurs know when to pivot or persist.Speaker Bios:Jennifer Glass brings sharp insight and courageous candor, challenging listeners to be “ruthless” in business and not let sentimentality keep them stuck. She anchors the conversation, underlining the importance of decisive action, clear metrics, and always seeking out the smart exit ramp before it's too late.Daniel McCraine offers a wealth of experience from both entrepreneurial and acquisition perspectives. He expertly outlines common traps (like “sunk cost” fallacy and shiny object syndrome) and emphasizes cash flow and clear planning as the true bottom lines for any pivot or persevere decision. His practical strategies empower listeners to approach major business decisions with both heart and logic.Patricia Reszetylo gets real about tough decisions, sharing her own story of shutting down a business as a powerful teaching moment. Her down-to-earth style gives voice to the emotional side of entrepreneurship, reminding us that not giving up sometimes means letting go, and that the biggest competitive edge can be found in honest self-reflection.Keywords: business pivot, when to pivot, burn it down, entrepreneurship, business strategy, Jennifer Glass, Daniel McCraine, Patricia Reszetylo, business failure, business success, startup advice, service business, product business, bottom line, smart decision making, business podcast

You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you (John 15:16). What does success look like? A church picnic without rain? A business that makes money? A family that can enjoy Thanksgiving dinner together? A winning sports team? Top grades in school? A vacation that leaves us relaxed and refreshed? Now, none of these things are bad in and of themselves. And we should thank God when we experience these things. Yet, Jesus invites us to consider a different way of measuring success. “I chose you to bear fruit”. It's fine to pray for good weather and restorative vacations and safe travels. But here, Jesus challenges us to deepen our prayers, to consider how his kingdom might come through our lives, including the daily, ordinary, mundane, routine activities we engage in. There are many necessary things that we do each day: volunteering, employment, business transactions, driving children and/or parents, studying, cleaning up. While we do each of these things, Jesus calls us to bear fruit. How do we do that? Obedience. “Obey me,” he says (John 15:10). This obedience is about love. Out of his love, God has initiated relationship with us in Christ Jesus. He wants us to remain in that loving relationship. But we cannot without obedience. Here too, Jesus summarizes the law with one simple statement, “Love each other as I have loved you” (15:12). So, the people that we encounter during our day—children, parents, co-workers, clients, customers, supervisors—these are all people that Jesus call us to love. We love them not just by being nice to them. Also, by providing the best service and products that we can offer. Further, we love them by offering our goods and services at a reasonable price. It is not wrong to make a profit, but for Christians, profit is never the bottom line. Love is. This fruit bearing involves a wonderful triad: obedience, love and joy. When we set out to live obedient lives by passing on the love we ourselves have received from God, the result is joy for us. God's joy invades our lives. This is a joy that lasts. As we head out into a new week with the many things that will be required of us, how will we measure success? Will it be by a completing our to do list? Will it be by ensuring our bank accounts remains in the black? Or will we measure success by fulfilling the calling Christ has given us – loving obedience to our father? Can we believe that joy will come our way when we do this? Will we begin a new week but praying to bear fruit for our heavenly Father? As you journey on, go with the blessing of God: Wherever God takes you today, may He fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit and that you may live carefully—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity.

French official Pascal Confavreux says the French-Saudi initiative takes the two-state solution "out of the moral danger" it was in. Pascal, spokesperson of the French Foreign Ministry, tells host Steve Clemons that France aims to end Israel's war on Gaza by sidelining Hamas, reshaping the Palestinian Authority to make it more palatable to Israel's right-wing government, and involving some Arab and Muslim states in the governance of Gaza. After his government recognised the State of Palestine for the first time on September 22, Confavreux argued that the alternative to a two-state solution is “an endless cycle of violence.” Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us on X : https://twitter.com/AJEnglish Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera Check our website: http://www.aljazeera.com/ Check out our Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/aljazeeraenglish/ Download AJE Mobile App: https://aje.io/AJEMobile #aljazeera #aljazeeraenglish #aljazeeranewslive

When most people first hear about Infinite Banking, one of the first questions that comes up is: “But what are the risks of Infinite Banking?” It's a fair question. We live in a financial world where we've been conditioned to look for the fine print, the hidden traps, and the potential downsides of anything that sounds “too good to be true.” https://www.youtube.com/live/7JHmm5jEfQ0 I get it. When you first hear the concept of becoming your own banker through whole life insurance, the mind immediately goes to skepticism: Are the premiums too high? Is whole life a bad investment? What if I can't afford it later? Here's the truth: most of what people call the risks of Infinite Banking aren't really risks at all. They're misconceptions, misunderstandings, or simply the result of looking at Infinite Banking through the wrong lens. In this blog, we'll pull back the curtain and unpack the myths, expose the real risks, and help you see why Infinite Banking—when understood and implemented correctly—is not risky, but rather one of the most powerful financial strategies you can use to take control of your wealth. Common Misconceptions About Infinite BankingMyth #1: Whole Life Insurance is a Bad InvestmentMyth #2: The Premiums are Too HighMyth #3: Infinite Banking = Life InsuranceThe Real Risks of Infinite BankingRisk #1: Not Understanding the Problem You're SolvingRisk #2: Poorly Designed PoliciesRisk #3: Dipping Your Toe InRisk #4: Wrong Perspective (Consumer vs. Owner)Why Infinite Banking Works When Done RightControl vs. DependencyRecapturing Opportunity CostMutual Companies Align With OwnersShould You Be Worried About the Risks?The Bottom Line on Infinite Banking RisksBook A Strategy CallFAQ: What Are the Risks of Infinite Banking?Is Infinite Banking risky?What are the downsides of Infinite Banking?Is Infinite Banking a scam?Can I lose money with Infinite Banking? Common Misconceptions About Infinite Banking Myth #1: Whole Life Insurance is a Bad Investment This is the first thing most people say when they hear about Infinite Banking. They've been told for years by financial gurus that whole life insurance has a low rate of return and is therefore “a bad investment.” But here's the problem: Infinite Banking is not an investment. It's a system. It's about controlling the flow of your money, not chasing the next hot stock. Whole life insurance is simply the tool that makes Infinite Banking possible—it provides the guarantees, safety, and contractual structure you need to run your own banking system. So when someone says Infinite Banking is risky because life insurance is a “bad investment,” they're comparing apples to oranges. Myth #2: The Premiums are Too High Another common objection: “What if I can't afford the premiums long term?” Here's what most people miss. Premiums are not a bill—they are a way of paying yourself first. Every premium dollar you pay is a contribution to your own financial system. Unlike money you pay to a bank, that premium isn't lost—it builds guaranteed cash value that you can use for opportunities, emergencies, or expenses. The real risk isn't paying premiums. The real risk is not valuing your own capital and continuing to let someone else profit from your money. Myth #3: Infinite Banking = Life Insurance This is one of the biggest misconceptions. People hear Infinite Banking and immediately equate it with whole life insurance. But Infinite Banking is bigger. It's about a process—the flow of money, storing it, using it, replenishing it. Life insurance is just the storage tank that makes the process efficient. Confusing the two is like saying “banking equals a vault.” The vault is just the tool. The banking process is much bigger. The Real Risks of Infinite Banking Now let's get into the real question: What are the actual risks of Infinite Banking? Risk #1: Not Understanding the Problem You're Solving
Gospel Lesson- Luke 16:1-13 Key Verse If, then, you have not been faithful with the dishonest wealth, who will entrust to you the true riches? And if you have not been faithful with what belongs to another, who will give you what is your own? (Luke 16:11-12)
Episode 83 of the Astonishing Healthcare podcast features returning guest, Bridget Mulvenna (VP, National Business Development at Capital Rx)! We discuss specialty drugs, pharmaceutical manufacturer rebates, and the shift to biosimilars. Yes, GLP-1s come up as well (how could they not?), and Bridget explains how employer plan sponsors can consider opportunities to provide access to these medications while not ignoring their inflationary potential and the economic impact on the plan - i.e., how to pivot from a rebate-driven models to a net-cost approach, facilitating more accurate cost management and budgeting.HighlightsTraditional PBMs remain focused on rebate value, which doesn't always mean the lowest net cost for the plan sponsor.Biosimilar adoption and precision formularies/benefits are a threat to old models.Plan sponsors must get [and use] their data - without detailed information, it's impossible to determine the true net cost or implement effective communication and education strategies.GLP-1s should be supported by wellness programs, and respecting FDA labeling is crucial.Surprisingly, many plan sponsors still choose the PBM that offers the highest rebates.Related ContentWill Biosimilar Rebates Pass-Through?Health Benefits 101: The Importance of a Transparent PBM ModelHow to Manage Pharmacy Benefit Spend in a GLP-1 WorldPharmacy Benefits 101: What is a Formulary?Pharmacy Benefits 101: Pharmaceutical RebatesFor more on the importance of access to plan data:
New initiatives to support Palestinian statehood, while reflecting growing international attention, are “perpetuating the illusion” that a two-state solution can resolve the conflict with Israel, argues former US diplomat Rob Malley. Malley was a leading United States negotiator across the Middle East for decades, and was on the cusp of a new Iran-US deal in 2023 when he was suspended by then-US President Joe Biden. Malley's new book, Tomorrow is Yesterday, details the damage done by decades of US involvement in Middle East peacemaking. Malley tells host Steve Clemons that Israel can't achieve normalcy or “absolute security” while sidestepping the issue of justice for the Palestinians.

In this episode, Josiah responds to a newspaper article claiming that it takes 6 steps to have eternal life. There are plenty of well-meaning people who are muddying the water of the gospel message, and we should respond with grace to defend the truth: the bottom line on eternal life is that JESUS' death paid the penalty for our sin, and his resurrection carries the guarantee of eternal life for all who trust in Him for it.The target of his ministry is to clearly communicate the gospel of grace to unbelievers and solid Bible teaching to believers in order to nurture them to grow and walk in fellowship with Jesus Christ. Josiah and his family are supported by people who believe in the gospel and want to see it preached and defended.SUPPORT FEMI: femionline.com/donateINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/focus_pod/OUR YOUTH CAMP: gracefarmonline.com

In the aftermath of an Israeli attack on Qatar targeting the leadership of Hamas, American political scientist John Mearsheimer argues, “The Israelis are interested in making sure there are no negotiations that settle the conflict in Gaza.” Mearsheimer tells host Steve Clemons that the United States and Israel “basically act as a tag team”, and despite a mild rebuke by President Donald Trump, “the US supports Israel unconditionally”. He adds that Israel has three main strategic goals: expand territory, move the Palestinians out of all conquered territory, and ensure that all countries in the region are weak. #aljazeera #aljazeeraenglish #aljazeeranewslive

Plus, Jocile Ehrlich from the Better Business Bureau stops by with the newest scams you need to watch for, and the show wraps up with a retirement checklist and Brian's Bottom Line.

For decades, the United States has been courting India as a counterbalance to China in Asia. But after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi refused to agree with US President Donald Trump's insistence that he had ended a Pakistan-India military conflict in May, Trump slapped 50 percent tariffs on Indian goods entering the US market. He also insisted that New Delhi stop buying discounted Russian oil. Host Steve Clemons asks Ravi Agrawal, chief editor of Foreign Policy, and Anja Manuel, executive director of the Aspen Security Forum, whether the India-US dispute is a temporary blip or the beginning of a major realignment.
