If your message isn't landing, it's not because your offer lacks value.It's because it may not be aligned with what your audience actually values.In this episode of The Estherpreneur Podcast, I explore one of the most overlooked truths in sales and leadership: people are driven by different motivations—and if you don't understand them, you'll struggle to connect.Some people are driven by freedom.Others by security.Others by impact, recognition, or growth.So if you're speaking the wrong language to the right person, they still won't move. This conversation will challenge you to rethink how you communicate, how you position your offers, and how you lead people toward decisions that actually serve them! The Estherpreneur Podcast is for CEOs, founders, and faith-driven entrepreneurs who are growing—but something feels misaligned. Whether it's your structure, your clarity, or your capacity, this show helps you identify what's off and what to focus on next.Hosted by Edna Harding, author of "The Ugly Side of Sales 2.0" and founder of Favor & Wealth, a business growth strategy firm that helps leaders scale with clarity, structure, and biblical alignment.

Episode #1177 You can put in all the effort in the world, but if it's not the effort your wife is asking for, your relationship may still feel stuck. In this episode of The TPM Show, Tim Matthews and Lawrence Davis unpack one of the most common traps successful men fall into: believing that working harder on themselves automatically leads to a stronger marriage. While personal growth is important, it isn't a substitute for genuine connection. Tim shares the story of a man who was committed to coaching, routines, and self-improvement but still struggled with a lack of physical intimacy in his marriage. The problem wasn't a lack of effort. It was that he was investing his energy everywhere except where his wife had been asking for it: spending quality time with her, being emotionally available, and creating meaningful moments of connection. Together, Tim and Lawrence explore how resentment builds when expectations don't match reality, why keeping score damages intimacy, and how emotional safety becomes the foundation for rebuilding trust. They also explain why many men focus on the outcome they want instead of the daily actions that actually create it.

We're digging deep into the essentials of prospecting and lead generation with guests Brynne Tillman, Jeff Bajorek, and Caryn Kopp this week. They share their top actionable do's and don'ts, revealing prospecting strategies that they have found to work. You'll hear real-world success stories—from making warm connections on LinkedIn to the power of consistent, quality touchpoints and the importance of solving your client's real challenges, not just following the standard playbook. Outline of This Episode [05:53] Challenges of prospecting and leads [07:09] Taking ownership of the sales process [09:52] Balancing business responsibilities [13:11] Recognizing success and solving problems [19:18] Case study of following up with a longtime client [20:43] Phone call preparation tips Building Genuine Connections Prospecting is about people, not profiles. Brynne Tillman cautions against three critical mistakes—connecting and immediately pitching, connecting and then ignoring, and limiting your network solely to those who seem immediately sellable. Instead, she recommends sales professionals to connect and start a conversation, treating the person on the other side of the screen as if they were right across the table. The focus should never be detached from humanity: "Do not detach this human being from as if they were in a real-life, physical situation... this is our reality today. Almost everything is virtual and remote". Engagement is the heartbeat of meaningful prospecting. It's not about going through the motions of a process but cultivating conversations that add value, recognizing that everyone who interacts with you deserves your attention and energy. Take Responsibility, Don't Outsource Your Success Jeff Bajorek emphasizes taking ownership of the entire lead-generation process. Take responsibility for it, and don't default to blaming others if your pipeline isn't full. Even in companies with dedicated sales development representatives, account executives should actively nurture leads and stay versatile throughout the process. Absolutely DON'T spam or " spray and pray," remember that technology is a tool for scale, not for selling itself. Scaling ineffective outreach just amplifies ineffectiveness. Jeff recommends learning through direct engagement—by overcoming objections, understanding customer pain points, and refining methods through real-world experience. He realized that, despite not always following industry-sanctioned scripts, his approach—filled with referrals and authentic connections—kept his pipeline thriving. Respect, Consistency, and Quality Touchpoints Caryn Kopp strongly suggests that sales professionals discard rigid scripts in favor of authentic, quality conversations, always remembering that prospects are people first. Persistence is essential—50% of prospects never receive a second follow-up call, even though building relationships takes time. A story from her early days illustrates the profound impact of personalized follow-ups. By meticulously noting a prospect's story about an adopted dog's peculiar fear, and referencing it months later, Caryn was able to foster trust and stand out from competitors. Every touchpoint will either build or ruin a relationship.

Four nonprofits in a row told Jordan Agolli the same thing about their previous auctioneer: they felt like the person with the microphone cared more about themselves than the mission.Jordan, a benefit auctioneer and MC based out of Atlanta, joins Trevor to break down what he's hearing from organizations interviewing him, why the line between confidence and cockiness on stage is thinner than most people think, and the rule he lives by: an auctioneer should only say their own name twice all night. Once at the intro, once at the close.In this episode: what to actually ask an auctioneer or MC before you hire them, why the person benefiting from the mission is a more powerful speaker than anyone with a microphone, how strong board involvement changes the ceiling of your fundraising night, and Jordan's blunt reminder to every auctioneer in the space, this event would happen with or without you.Plus: Jordan's own story of losing five years to a back injury, rebuilding from scratch, and coming back to the stage with less ego and more listening.Chapters:00:00 Intro00:49 Building Connections in the Nonprofit Space05:04 Jordan's Journey into Auctioneering13:55 Overcoming Challenges and Health Struggles17:55 Understanding Nonprofit Culture and Values21:47 Importance of Alignment in Event Planning23:19 The Power of Listening in Fundraising27:41 Understanding the Mission: The Key to Success30:41 Marketing Strategies for Nonprofits36:02 Connecting with the Community

We must preserve it!"He: הם שבו למחנה, ומיד פרצה ביניהם שיחה.En: They returned to the camp, and a conversation immediately erupted among them.He: כל החברים היו דעתניים לגבי מה יש לעשות עם הממצא.En: Everyone had strong opinions on what to do with the find.He: חלק חשבו על הערך הכספי, אחרים חששו מהסיכון.En: Some considered its monetary value, while others feared the risks involved.He: אליאורה רצתה להעביר את האמפורה למוזיאון.En: Eliora wanted to transfer the amphora to a museum.He: היא האמינה שזה יעזור לגבריאל ולעצמה להתחבר טוב יותר.En: She believed it would help Gabriel and herself connect more deeply.He: בלילה, מתחת לכוכבים הזוהרים, התחיל ויכוח נוקב.En: At night, beneath the glowing stars, a heated debate began.He: גבריאל הבין שעליו לפתוח את ליבו.En: Gabriel realized he had to open his heart.He: "אליאורה, זה הרבה יותר מממצא. זה ההיסטוריה שלנו. זה חשוב לי... ולך?"En: "Eliora, it's much more than just a find. It's our history. It's important to me... and to you?"He: אליאורה הניחה את ידה על שלו.En: Eliora placed her hand on his.He: "אני יודעת. אני מעריכה את הערכים שלך. גם אני רוצה לשמר את העבר, יחד איתך."En: "I know. I appreciate your values. I also want to preserve the past, with you."He: הבוקר עלה, והשמש התחילה להאדים את האופק.En: Morning dawned, and the sun began to redden the horizon.He: גבריאל הרגיש שזה הזמן להחליט.En: Gabriel felt it was time to make a decision.He: יחד עם אליאורה, הוא דיווח על הממצא לרשויות המתאימות.En: Together with Eliora, he reported the discovery to the appropriate authorities.He: הם ידעו שהם עושים את הדבר הנכון.En: They knew they were doing the right thing.He: הקבוצה, גבריאל ואליאורה במיוחד, הבינו שעם מחויבות ויכולת להקשיב אחד לשני, הם מסוגלים לכבוש כל מכשול.En: The group, especially Gabriel and Eliora, understood that with commitment and the ability to listen to each other, they could overcome any obstacle.He: רצונם המשותף לחקר ההיסטוריה ותמיכת אחד בשני, בנו את הגשר הדרוש לקשר חזק יותר.En: Their shared desire to explore history and support for each other built the bridge necessary for a stronger bond.He: ובדיוק ברגע הזה, תחת השמיים הפתוחים של הנגב, הבינו שניהם מה באמת חשוב.En: And in that very moment, under the open skies of the Negev, they both understood what truly mattered.He: לא רק הממצא עצמו, אלא המסע שהוא חולל ביניהם.En: Not just the discovery itself, but the journey it sparked between them.He: הם ימות תמיד כצוות, ולקחו איתם את הלימודים שהמדבר לימד אותם - על כבוד, על שיתוף פעולה, ועל כוחם של קשרים אמיתיים.En: They would forever be a team, carrying with them the lessons the desert taught them—about respect, cooperation, and the power of genuine connections.

In this episode of the Superpowers for Good show, HaChi Yu, Director of Jivamukti Yoga® New York, shared her passion for fostering deep connections—not just through yoga practice but through a broader vision of community and inclusivity.“Yoga actually means union or to yoke, which means to create a connection,” HaChi explained. She described Jivamukti as grounded in the Sanskrit concepts of “Jeeva,” meaning soul, and “Mukti,” meaning liberation. “We are all trying to reconnect to our true potential and our true nature, which we believe is goodness,” she said.HaChi's mission extends beyond the physical practice of yoga. The studio serves as a hub for building relationships, learning, and healing. Jivamukti Yoga®, founded in 1984 in New York City, emphasizes a philosophy of interconnection: to oneself, to others, and to the earth.After navigating the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to the closure of her Los Angeles studio, HaChi returned to New York and opened a small studio in Chinatown. Now, she is expanding to a larger 5,000-square-foot flagship location in Brooklyn. HaChi described the new space as one that will “allow us to host multiple studios for meditation, yoga classes, readings, and events simultaneously.”To bring this vision to life, HaChi is raising funds via a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Honeycomb Credit. She views the campaign as an extension of her yoga philosophy. “The community is not separate from the business,” she noted, emphasizing the collective nature of sustaining inclusive wellness spaces.Supporters can join the campaign by visiting s4g.biz/jiva or scanning the QR code featured during the episode. Crowdfunding allows people to contribute to meaningful projects with even modest investments, aligning with HaChi's vision of accessible and inclusive participation.Jivamukti Yoga® is more than a physical practice. It's a reminder of shared responsibility and the power of community. Supporting this expansion is an investment not only in yoga but in a more connected and compassionate world.tl;dr:Jivamukti Yoga® emphasizes connection as the foundation for personal and community transformation.Founder Sharon Gannon and David Leif launched Jivamukti in NYC, fostering a yoga lifestyle since 1984.After COVID closed her LA studio, HaChi reopened in NYC and is now expanding to Brooklyn.HaChi is using Honeycomb Credit crowdfunding to raise capital, embracing her community-first philosophy.HaChi identifies connection as her superpower, teaching others to forge meaningful bonds across differences.How to Develop Connection As a SuperpowerHaChi believes her superpower is connection, a skill tied directly to her yoga practice. “Yoga means to link, it means to connect,” she explained, adding that her ability to connect with others transcends physical yoga. She focuses on fostering connections between people, cultures, nature, and shared human experiences. Her goal isn't to highlight individual differences but to celebrate similarities, saying, “What makes us the same? Not what makes us different.” This focus allows her community to thrive and underscores her belief that connection is the foundation of wellness.Years before transitioning into yoga, HaChi was a professional ballerina. During one of her retirement performances, she panicked moments before stepping on stage in stilts. Overwhelmed with fear, she voiced her hesitation to the stage manager. When her director noticed her struggle, he addressed the audience directly, bringing transparency to the challenge she faced. This act of connection—being seen and supported—helped her proceed with confidence. The incident reinforced HaChi's belief in the power of connection to overcome fear and foster growth.Tips for Developing the Superpower of Connection:Listen Deeply: Focus on what's behind a person's words with empathy and attention.Foster Inclusivity: Look for common ground to connect across differences.Be Vulnerable: Ask for help when needed—it builds mutual trust and understanding.Cultivate Awareness: Pause to reflect on shared humanity before responding.By following HaChi's example and advice, you can make connection a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Fitness is evolving—and it's becoming about a lot more than workouts. In this episode of The Fitness League Podcast, we dive into the growing shift toward community-driven fitness, the powerful impact of social connection on long-term health, and why relationships may be just as important as nutrition and exercise when it comes to living well. We also share personal travel stories, family travel hacks, and lessons learned from balancing health, fitness, and connection while navigating busy seasons of life. Along the way, we discuss how the future of fitness is moving away from isolation and toward shared experiences, accountability, and meaningful community. From group challenges and fitness events to simple daily interactions, we explore how connection influences motivation, mental health, longevity, and overall well-being—and why modern life may be pushing people further away from what humans actually need most. If you've ever felt disconnected, burned out, or stuck trying to do everything alone, this conversation will remind you that health isn't just built in the gym—it's built through the people you surround yourself with.

In this episode of Reimagine Childhood from the Early Childhood Christian Network, host Monica Healer welcomes Joy Wendling—founder of Created to Play, author, podcast host, and ministry resource coordinator—to model how intentional movement and planned "interruptions" can transform Bible storytelling for preschoolers. Joy demonstrates telling "Jesus Calms the Storm" by inviting children to row, rock with waves, show emotions, and breathe into peace, helping them process fear and experience the story in their bodies. They discuss choosing age-appropriate, shorter storybook Bible retellings, the value of oral storytelling, and how movement frees children's brains to focus rather than struggle to sit still. Monica and Joy explore how this approach nurtures faith, helps children imagine Jesus in everyday life, and offers practical ways to handle child-led interruptions with "connection over perfection," plus classroom extension ideas like sink-and-float play and ocean sounds. 00:00 5.4.26- Joy Wendling 00:01 Welcome to Reimagine Childhood 00:50 Meet Joy Wendling 02:30 Interactive Bible Story Demo 13:34 Why Movement Matters 17:01 Conference Season Highlights 18:01 Storytelling That Builds Faith 26:05 Handling Interruptions Gracefully 31:09 Key Takeaways And Sendoff Find all of Joy's resource at https://createdtoplay.com/ Her podcast is Playfully Faithful Parenting - https://createdtoplay.com/podcast/ Follow her on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/createdtoplay Or find some of the toolkits she's created at https://faithandchildren.org/
Steven W. Shields, CMHC, CETII, CECII, is passionate about helping others regain their freedom by healing their root trauma. One of his greatest moments with clients is when he fires them.

Steven loves dirt biking, Christian rap, and playing Pokémon with his kids. Links Is Mental Health Healing Possible? | An Interview with Steven Shields [ACCEPTED] Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights Steve discusses the importance of community and authenticity within Latter-day Saint congregations, and how to foster genuine connections and address the challenges of secrecy and shame in church settings. Key Insights Community vs. Secrecy: Steven emphasizes the distinction between confidentiality and secrecy. While confidentiality involves honoring individuals’ stories, secrecy can hinder authentic connections and healing. Authenticity in Leadership: Leaders are encouraged to model authenticity by sharing their own experiences and struggles, which can create a safe space for others to do the same. The Role of Therapy: Therapy serves as an artificial container for healing, providing tools and support that individuals may not find within their community. However, true healing often occurs through genuine relationships and community support. Cultural Challenges: Many members feel isolated or disconnected in their wards, often due to fear of judgment. Steven argues that this leads to a culture of silence, where individuals keep secrets rather than seeking connection. Building Connections: Leaders should actively work to create environments where members feel safe to share their struggles, thus fostering a sense of belonging and support. Leadership Applications Encourage Vulnerability: Leaders can promote a culture of openness by sharing their own challenges and inviting members to do the same, which can help break down barriers of shame and secrecy. Facilitate Small Groups: Organizing smaller gatherings or discussion groups can help members connect on a deeper level, allowing for more meaningful conversations and support. Model Authenticity: By being transparent about their own journeys, leaders can inspire others to engage authentically, ultimately strengthening the ward community and enhancing overall unity. 00:03:43 – The Importance of Community 00:04:16 – Current Trends in Therapy 00:05:40 – Managing vs. Healing 00:08:10 – The Role of Worthiness 00:09:50 – The Journey of Repentance 00:11:32 – Addressing Pornography in Leadership 00:12:25 – Confidentiality vs. Secrecy 00:14:05 – The Nature of Confidentiality 00:15:10 – The Need for Vulnerability 00:18:25 – Creating Safe Spaces in Church 00:19:28 – The Power of Authenticity 00:21:11 – Building Connections in the Ward 00:23:29 – The Role of Community in Recovery 00:25:17 – The Importance of Sharing Stories 00:27:39 – Overcoming Fear and Shame 00:29:10 – The Cost of Speaking Up 00:30:57 – The Role of Therapy in Healing 00:32:19 – Building Community in the Church 00:34:06 – The Future of Healing and Community 00:35:17 – The Role of Therapy as an Artificial Container 00:37:14 – The Need for Organic Healing 00:40:10 – Therapy and Community The award-winning Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top independent Latter-day Saints podcasts as part of nonprofit Leading Saints’ mission to help Latter-day Saints be better prepared to lead.

Steve Spears has spent over two decades uncovering a profound truth: the 1980s are not really about the music, movies, or fashion—they are about who we were when we first encountered them. Through more than 760 episodes of his work, Spears has interviewed hundreds of artists and personalities who helped define the decade. His approach to these conversations reveals something essential about human connection: when we remove the pressure to promote or defend past work, people become willing to share not just what they did, but why they did it, what they learned from it, and how it transformed them. What makes Steve's guests so compelling is their willingness to reflect on their legacies with genuine honesty and vulnerability. These artists have moved beyond the need for external validation and instead offer wisdom about persistence, connection, and what it truly means to create something that endures. Their stories reveal universal human experiences: the desire to belong, the fear of being left behind, the pain of loss, and the possibility of redemption. When these iconic figures share their personal narratives, they transform from celebrities into genuine human beings whose journeys illuminate what it means to build something meaningful over decades while maintaining authenticity and integrity. For anyone seeking to understand how pop culture shapes our lives and how we can build lasting creative work, Steve Spears has just released his new book Stuck in the '80s: 20 Years of Conversations with Pop Culture Icons Who Defined a Decade and is still on sale. This collection brings together the most impactful interviews and stories from his extensive archive, offering readers direct access to the wisdom and reflections of the artists who created the soundtrack and visual language of an entire generation.

Making friends as an adult can feel surprisingly difficult, especially once life paths start to diverge, priorities shift, and free time becomes limited. In this episode, I share how I've built meaningful friendships from scratch in three different cities, and what actually matters when it comes to forming connections that last. I talk about using your network intentionally, why friends of friends are the real unlock, how to put yourself out there without forcing it, and how to adjust expectations as people move through different life stages. This episode is both practical and honest, with real examples from my experiences in Boston, Los Angeles, and Chicago. If you're navigating loneliness, rebuilding your social life, or trying to make new friends in adulthood without burning yourself out, this episode will give you a grounded framework for doing so.Subscribe to Beyond Your Budget:https://breakyourbudget.substack.com/Personal Finance Starter Kit: https://breakyourbudget.substack.com/p/your-personal-finance-starter-kitBREAK YOUR BUDGET RESOURCES:

In this week's episode of the Building Better Cultures podcast, Scott McInnes speaks with Kim Bohr, President and COO of Spark Effect, about the critical role of trust in organisations. They discuss the findings from the report 'Trust in Turbulence' which breaks down trust into measurable domains and emphasises its importance as a competitive advantage. The conversation explores how disruptions, such as the return to office policies, impact trust, and how organizations can build and rebuild trust through effective communication and leadership practices. Takeaways: Trust is a measurable and critical component of organisational success. Disruptions can erode trust in everyday interactions. Return to office policies must be communicated effectively to maintain trust. High trust organizations see better performance and retention rates. Low trust environments lead to increased turnover and disengagement. Younger generations prioritize alignment of values with their employers. Technology rollouts can significantly impact trust dynamics. Managers play a crucial role in translating corporate messages to their teams. Celebrating achievements fosters a culture of trust and connection. Rebuilding trust requires transparency and accountability from leadership.

Angelina Keeley & Aubry Bracco Survivor 50 Preseason Interviews Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) is here to chat to the cast of Survivor 50! Join us to hear from your favorite returning Survivor players! Today, Mike Bloom starts a preseason deep dive into the Vatu tribe featuring returnees Angelina Keeley and Aubry Bracco. Angelina opens up about her major life changes since David vs. Goliath, while Aubry reflects on her evolution across her storied Survivor journey, setting the stage for a season full of big personalities, new alliances, and possible blindsides. Mike chats with Angelina about what it's like to be called back after seven years away from the game, including leaving behind a young family and a new business to take another shot at the title of Sole Survivor. Angelina breaks down her approach heading into the game, how being a mom and entrepreneur brings a new flavor to her gameplay, why her “BFF, friend, or foe” approach will guide her alliances, and how she handles being labeled “chaotic.” Aubry discusses her surprise at being invited back, what she's learned from her three previous seasons, and how she aims to play with more self-awareness, adaptability, and focus on one-on-one connections. Both women weigh in on their perceptions of fellow castaways, discussing new era strategists, obvious threats, and the push and pull between loyalty and gameplay. Angelina ranks her cast as BFF, friend, or foe in a candid alliances game, revealing beef, admiration, and strategic wariness, especially when it comes to winners and new era players. Aubry shares how being blindsided in Edge of Extinction changed her approach, and why she's focused on staying grounded and present this time around. Both discuss leaving behind kids, running businesses, and the “joyful warrior” mindset they hope to channel on the island. Each interview explores Survivor's evolving meta, including whether recent winners should be targeted, which returnees are most dangerous, and how pre-existing relationships will shape alliances. Funny moments include Angelina's dream “summer solstice” camp party and her family rooting for Ozzy right alongside her. As the anticipation for season 50 builds, Mike asks: Can Angelina or Aubry climb higher on the Survivor ladder, or will new threats and old friends stand in their way? How will personal growth off the island translate into better game performance in Fiji's high-stakes returnee showdown?

Eric Van Buren grew up in Washington, DC in a stable home with hardworking parents and a strong family foundation, but his life took a turn after high school when fighting and drug dealing pulled him into the streets. After being arrested on a state murder charge and beating the case, Eric thought the worst was behind him — until the federal government indicted him on a major drug conspiracy. The feds sentenced Eric to life in prison, and he went on to serve 19 years inside some of the most dangerous federal prisons in the country, fighting to survive both mentally and physically. In this episode, Eric breaks down how a good kid ended up with a life sentence, what day-to-day survival in high-security federal prison is really like, and how he ultimately got his sentence reduced after nearly two decades behind bars. This is a raw, unfiltered story about choices, consequences, and redemption inside the federal prison system. _____________________________________________ #prisonstory #lifeinprison #truecrime #federalprison #survivestory #prisonlife #lockedin #realstories _____________________________________________ Thank you to PRIZEPICKS for sponsoring this episode!
