In this deeply personal and resonant episode, longtime hospice nurse and podcast host of The Heart of Hospice, Helen Bauer, BSN RN CHPN®, shares an intimate look at the soul of hospice nursing — the part that's rarely documented but always deeply felt. With more than seven years behind the mic and a career alongside patients and families at the bedside, Helen reflects on the intimacy and intensity of hospice care, and the challenges of translating those sacred moments into clinical notes and checkboxes. Together, we explore the personhood-centered mindset that defines exceptional hospice nursing: arriving as a blank slate, open and eager to learn who the patient is, then crafting care that honors the individual's story, values, and needs. Helen speaks candidly about the emotional toll of the work, the cumulative grief nurses carry, and the resilience it takes to keep showing up — not just for patients, but for ourselves. Listeners will hear reflections on: The artistry and difficulty of painting a picture through documentation How hospice nurses excel at education and advocacy, even outside traditional care settings What we're doing well as a community — and where we can grow The value of Hospice Navigation Services and empowering families with information The quiet power of showing up, day after day, with care and presence This episode is a tribute to hospice nurses everywhere — a reminder that your work matters, your presence is powerful, and you are just as important as the care you provide. Whether you're a hospice nurse, a health care professional, or a family member navigating end-of-life care, this episode will speak to the heart of what it means to accompany someone at life's end — with compassion, courage, and creativity.

In this whole-hearted interview, she reflects on her husband's nine-month experience with Stage IV colorectal cancer and offers an insider's perspective as both a palliative care clinician and caregiver- how as a couple they navigated the miracle they were hoping for within the system, how these experiences have transformed Meggan's clinical practice, and how life has unfolded since then. Listen for what the health care teams did well, areas where they could improve, and how administrators can champion hospice and palliative care services to make end of life easier for patients and their families.

Brett's realization of living without intentionality and alignment with his Christian values prompted a transformative journey, leading to the inception of Iron Deep. In a candid conversation with Brett Snodgrass, the founder of Iron Deep Ministry, his journey from a conventional entrepreneur to a purpose-driven leader unfolds. Discovery of Purpose Brett's entrepreneurial journey began with a profound realization – he was living a life devoid of intentionality and purpose. Despite his success in business, he felt a misalignment with his core values as a Christian husband and father. This discord propelled him on a quest to rediscover his purpose and align his life with his beliefs. Impact through Business Brett challenges the notion that impactful ministry is exclusive to clergy or non-profit endeavors. Instead, he advocates for leveraging one's profession as a platform for positive influence.

Empowering Christian Entrepreneurs Iron Deep Ministry serves as a beacon of inspiration for Christian entrepreneurs seeking to integrate faith and business. Brett's vision extends beyond personal transformation; he aspires to empower fellow entrepreneurs to lead purpose-driven lives, catalyzing a ripple effect of positive change in their spheres of influence.

Brett is not only an expert in wholesaling and creative financing with an impressive track record of over 300 deals last year, but he's also a man driven by his faith, committed to his family, and passionate about helping others achieve their goals while honoring the kingdom of God.Real Estate Wholesaling: The Quick Nickel StrategyBrett Snodgrass, the CEO and founder of Simple Wholesaling in Indianapolis, emphasizes the appeal of wholesaling, which allows for quick and repeated transactions. Unlike traditional real estate processes, wholesalers get properties under contract and then assign or sell that contract to investors. It's about the pursuit of quick, efficient deals, without the heavy lifting of extensive renovations, a strategy that aligns with Brett's preference for the 'quick nickel rather than the slow dime.'Achieving High-Volume SuccessBrett's transition to wholesaling 5-6 years ago led to the formation of a successful team, which completed over 300 deals last year, yielding a gross of $23 million. Their approach leverages multiple exit strategies, from assigning contracts to selling properties directly to end-users with minimal rehabilitation. By gauging market conditions and buyer availability, Brett's team maximizes their opportunities, even in a tight real estate market.The Importance of Market AdaptationOne key to sustained success in real estate is adaptability. Brett underscores the necessity of being conservative and vigilant, as market conditions are dynamic. His team's strategic decisions are grounded in a comprehensive understanding that it's crucial to prepare for potential downturns by staying cognizant of the need to pivot when the market dictates.Family and Faith Over FortuneBeyond financial achievements, Brett stresses the importance of balancing personal life with professional demands. Prioritizing family, marriage, and faith, he advocates for moments of reflection where entrepreneurs assess their sacrifices. It's not just about building financial wealth but creating a life that's rich in relationships and meaningful experiences.Staying Present: The Precious PresentIn conversation with host Jay Conner, Brett Snodgrass and Jay agree on the difficulty of maintaining presence amidst life's distractions. They both endorse the concept of 'precious present,' a mindset that cherishes being fully engaged and present in the moment. As shared during the podcast, this philosophy is encapsulated in the book 'The Precious Present,' advocating a focused presence as the ultimate gift one can offer.In conclusion, success in real estate with Brett Snodgrass isn't just measured by the number of deals or dollars but by the ability to maintain a fulfilling personal life alongside a thriving business. This holistic approach to success encompasses wealth-building, adaptability, and steadfast attention to what truly matters - faith, family, and being fully present in each moment.“ I am passionate about successful people who give more importance to significance than success” - Brett SnodgrassTen Lessons Learned from this Episode:1. "Private Funding": Jay Conner's book offers insights on securing non-traditional real estate deal funding.2. "Teamwork Triumph": Brett Snodgrass highlights the success of building a team in real estate to increase deal flow.3.

Most people don't think they're greedy. People can usually recognize many of their other sins, but almost always, greed goes undetected. This hiddenness and subtlety is what makes greed so dangerous. What does it mean to be greedy? Part of the root of greed is selfishness. But selfishness is the root of most sin. There are ways to identify if we're a selfish person, which Brett and Mike discuss in this episode.But to dig deeper into understanding greed we must ask ourselves, "What does the Bible say about greed and selfishness?" When you look at greed in scripture, it is very closely linked to covetousness. So when we ask, "What does it mean to be greedy?" we should also ask, "What does it mean to not covet?"Coveting is a very serious sin. It's so serious, God lists it as one of the 10 commandments in Exodus. But when we think about bad sins like lying, or stealing, or murder, or idolatry, most people forget about coveting. But coveting is listed just as strongly and as evil as these other horrible sins. That's what makes this sin so dangerous. To be greedy or to covet is incredibly dangerous because it's so hard to see or detect in our own lives. But if it fills our heart, it will affect everything else in our lives and cause lots of damage. Greed is very much a most hidden sin that's so hard to notice. Brett and Mike talk about what greed and coveting are in this episode and ways to discover if it's operating in your life. They also discuss how to deal with coveting if you do find it filling your mind and heart.If you don't think greed or coveting is that bad, think about the meaning of the scripture verse, "You Shall Not Covet Your Neighbor's Wife." Let that sink in to understand the gravity of greed. While it's sinking in, go ahead and take a look at this episode.

Brett's story isn't just about personal triumph; it's about the significant connections and the legacy he aims to build through his ventures, including his real estate success and the insights gleaned from his book "The Secret War Within," all while fostering a sense of brotherhood with Iron Deep.Transitioning from the thrill of sports to the grind of business, we uncover the challenges of reshaping one's identity and the quest for validation beyond the scoreboard. Brett and I get personal, revealing how the highs and lows of an athlete's life parallel the vulnerabilities faced when stepping into the public eye as content creators. Reflecting on our shared roots in Southern Indiana's basketball heritage, we touch on the profound influence of family and the pursuit of genuine fulfillment that goes beyond career accolades. This conversation is as much an exploration of the heart as it is a playbook for anyone looking to redefine their worth and find purpose in every step.As we wrap up, Brett doesn't just conclude his story; he extends a warm invitation for you to become a part of it. At the ripe age of 44, he understands the value of wisdom from those who've walked the path before him, seeking insights from men who've navigated the critical 50 to 60 age bracket with grace. If you're in search of mentorship, inspiration, or simply a deeper connection with someone who's learned to balance success with significance, reach out to Brett. His eagerness to learn and grow with his audience, and his gratitude for the chance to connect through his experiences, are what make this episode a treasure trove of life lessons waiting to be discovered.To follow more of Brett's journey:https://www.irondeep.com/https://www.instagram.com/brettesnodgrass/?hl=en Support the showFollow Playing Injured on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/playinginjured/
When Brett Snodgrass stepped away from the intoxicating rush of real estate success, he stumbled into a life-altering realization that wealth couldn't fill the void in his soul. Our latest episode sweeps you into Brett's extraordinary transformation and the profound truth he now lives by—that true worth and purpose are found in faith and authentic community. In this deeply profound discussion, we address the profound question of what it means to build a kingdom not of mortar and riches, but of spirit and purpose, and how our personal journeys are part of a much grander divine blueprint.Navigating life's ambitions and seeking fulfillment, we often find ourselves at crossroads where the material meets the spiritual. This conversation peels back the layers on why the drive for success, while exhilarating, can lead us astray from the path of significance that deeply resonates with our soul. Through laughter, shared stories, and a dose of candid vulnerability, we dissect the shifts in perspective that reframe our quests—from self-serving achievements to nurturing legacies that ripple through time and touch lives.Our episode culminates in a poignant reflection on the essence of abundance and the richness that comes from a place of spiritual depth. Whether you're weathering storms of adversity or basking in the glow of accomplishment, we invite you to find your 'foxhole,' that sacred space for growth where the divine meets the earthly. In a world that measures success in likes, promotions, and bank balances, join us for a heartfelt exploration of what it really means to be fulfilled—a journey that starts with a simple, yet daring step toward the eternal.Check out Brett's ministry, Iron Deep!Support the showWe have BIG plans at Foxhole Symphony and sure could use your financial support.

You may have noticed we didn't post a podcast last week. That's because we needed a break! We're taking July off the podcast to rest and reflect.We have a lot of dreams and plans for the future of Iron Deep. But implementing it all is a lot of work and can be tiresome with everything we're doing. We thought it was important to use July to rest a bit, instead of getting burnt out. It's important that when you get tired you learn to rest, not to quit.In this time of rest, we're taking time to re-evaluate what we're doing and what's really going to be most fruitful for the whole Iron Deep community. It's important to have time to stop and reflect in this fast-paced world and ask our Father what He would have us do? So we're slightly course-correcting in our time of rest and reflection to hopefully bring better and deeper fruit for our community and for all of our viewers.Socrates said, "An unexamined life is not worth living." Sometimes it can feel intimidating to stop and get quiet, and reflect inwardly. But that's one of the most important and helpful practices we can implement in our lives.Stay tuned! We'll be back in August with new episodes. And make sure to check out our website IronDeep.com as we'll be updating it in the coming weeks to see all the new plans and events in store.
Young heroes dominate the narrative in books and films, but behind every one of them is another man that is all too often unspoken. That person is the sage. It is Harry Potter's Dumbledore, Frodo's Gandalf, and Luke Skywalker's Yoda. It is the older, wiser male who is at the point in his life where he has nothing to prove anymore. Every man in this world is eventually going to get to that stage. Many would consider the second half of life as past a man's prime. But to Chris Bruno, it is the pinnacle of the masculine journey. It is when we shape our legacy in the world. In this conversation with Brett Snodgrass, he unpacks everything there is to understand about this misunderstood stage of a man's life. He teaches us how we can take on our new societal role as bearers of knowledge and wisdom, as holders of space for others, and as contented elders living in the present in this fast-paced world. Tune in and learn how you can navigate this journey when it's time for you to take it!
We are already in the fight to stop human trafficking, whether we like it or not. You don't have to be involved in the actual rescuing of victims. Even a simple step like practicing sexual purity and building a virtuous family helps the cause. In this episode of Iron Deep Podcast, Brett Snodgrass brings in two great men who are making a massive impact in curbing this global problem. Clayton Butler and Matt Robertson are from Agape International Missions (AIM), an organization that implements a strategic and holistic approach to fighting and preventing human trafficking. What sets AIM apart is that they're not stopping at rescues. They take the recovery and restoration process for the victims a step further by giving them an opportunity to gain a meaningful existence after being rescued. Learn more about the impactful things they are doing in this space and how it ties to their strong Christian ethic by joining in!

Would you believe me if I said you didn't need a massive buyers list to successfully wholesale properties? So many times, real estate gurus emphasize the importance of growing your buyers list to contain thousands of names. Now, I know sending properties to thousands of people sounds much more appealing than sending a property to a small handful of individuals. I mean, the chances of selling your property are much greater if you send it to thousands of people, right? Yes, it's very possible, but let me ask you this: Are you currently on someone else's buyers list? If so, do you actually click and view those spammy emails? Me neither! So, I want to encourage you guys to spend less time sending blanket emails to thousands of people you don't know and focus your energy on developing relationships with buyers you can truly count on to buy your properties. Today, I'm going to show you why a small list of names is more valuable than thousands of names on a buyers list. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

As a Christian understanding God's forgiveness and gifting of a second chance for his own life, John wanted to extend the same grace to ex-convicts looking for a second chance. John began to teach business classes to felons and other convicts in prison. In doing so, John realized ex-convicts make some of the best employees and entrepreneurs.The stigma around ex-convicts is that they're bad and will always be bad. John realized there are many ex-convicts who are very sincere, and have had a lot of time to think and reflect on their lives in prison. Many become very spiritual reading the Bible and seeking true heart change and new ways to think.The sad part is, prison systems aren't usually built to reform convicts. And for those who truly want to change, even when released from prison, they have a very difficult time finding gainful employment. Which is one reason why many ex-cons become entrepreneurs. It's the only way they can make an honest living.John realized many ex-convicts just need an opportunity. Many ex-cons just need someone to give them a chance.
