What would you do today if you weren't afraid to fail? Fear of failure can keep us from applying for the opportunity, speaking up, starting something new, or having the difficult conversation. But failure doesn't define who you are. It's an event that can give you feedback, information, and a chance to grow. In this episode, Dr. Cindra Kamphoff explains why confident people still experience fear and how to keep that fear from making your decisions. She shares how redefining success around what you can control can take power away from failure and help you move forward with more courage. You'll also learn Cindra's Learn, Burn, Return strategy for responding when things don't go your way: learn from the experience, let go of what isn't serving you, and return to your previous level of confidence. This week, ask yourself: How am I defining failure? What does success look like if I define it by what I can control? What would I do today if I wasn't afraid to fail? Then take one action. Confidence doesn't come from knowing you'll succeed. It comes from knowing you can handle whatever happens. Power Phrase: "Fear doesn't make my decisions."   To buy Cindra's new book: confidencetools.com To download our full study report, visit: confidencestudy.com To request a Free Breakthrough Call with a Mentally Strong Coach, visit: freementalbreakthroughcall.com To learn more about the Mentally Strong Institute, visit: mentallystronginstitute.com To learn about Dr. Cindra Kamphoff's speaking and coaching, visit: cindrakamphoff.com To follow Dr. Cindra on Instagram, visit: @cindrakamphoff

Today's storyteller brings us into the quiet, exacting world of tiny things — and what it means to build something beautiful when the larger story of your life has gone completely out of your control. This is a piece about chemo brain and lost words, about a miniature garden assembled with tweezers and a glue gun while a wound vac churned beside her, about what happens when you can no longer offer the people you love the story they want to hear. This conversation explores chemo brain, finding comfort in small things, friendship, uncertainty, redefining health and wholeness, resistance, creativity, finding your own cancer story, and how cancer changes your perspective on life and the future.More about Lorie: https://www.instagram.com/lkolak/More about Temple of Kinship: https://www.instagram.com/p/DdlycKqkdUf/https://www.templeofkinship.orgMore about Paxman Cooling: https://coldcap.com/https://www.instagram.com/scalpcooling/Buy the Metamorphosis issue: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/shop/p/meta25Shop Wildfire merch & more: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/shopBuy the Wildfire book Igniting the Fire Within: Stories of Healing, Hope & Humor, Inside Today's Young Breast Cancer Community: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BJVJ629F?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860Get the free Wildfire “Hot Flashes” email newsletter: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/newsletter?rq=newsletterLearn about Wildfire writing workshops: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/workshops*Free* Get Wildfire and The Burn freebies here: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/freeMore about Wildfire Journal: https://www.wildfirecommunity.orghttps://www.instagram.com/wildfire_bc_magazine/https://www.facebook.com/wildfirecommunityInformation on submitting your story for consideration to be published in Wildfire Journal: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/submissions

What if your body isn't broken—but adapting to the signals it receives every day? In this special solo series of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I'm taking you down the rabbit hole into the science behind The FutureYou Method™ and the framework that now guides my work: Foundations → Signals → Adaptation → Resilience After more than 30 years in health and fitness—and my own health breakdown after years of endurance training, chronic stress, under-recovery, and trying to do everything "right"—I learned that we can't simply keep pushing harder when the body stops responding. We need to ask better questions. What signals is the body receiving? What is it adapting to? And what does it need us to BUILD before we ask it to BURN? Throughout this series, we'll connect the dots between muscle, metabolism, mitochondria, the nervous system, vagal signaling, digestion, hormones, blood flow, lymphatic flow, recovery, energy availability, and healthy aging. We'll explore why exercise, protein, food, fasting, sleep, stress, breathing, light, movement, and recovery are more than lifestyle habits. They are biological signals. And when those signals are mismatched with your current capacity, even strategies we consider "healthy" can become additional stress. That is why my work today is built around three different ways of helping you move from guessing to understanding—and then into action. TEST — PNOĒ Metabolic Testing Sometimes we need objective data. With PNOĒ Resting and Active Metabolic Testing, I look beyond a single calorie number or VO₂ max score to identify patterns in resting metabolism, fuel utilization, breathing, exercise metabolism, metabolic flexibility, recovery, and potential clues about how your body is responding to its current environment. My philosophy is simple: Test. Don't guess. INVESTIGATE — Personalized FutureYou Method™ When your story is more complicated, we need to connect more dots. My personalized work using The FutureYou Method™ brings together your health history, symptoms, lifestyle, nutrition, training, recovery, functional health information, and metabolic patterns to investigate the bigger picture. Instead of chasing individual symptoms, we ask: What are the upstream signals contributing to the downstream patterns? Then we build a personalized roadmap designed to restore capacity and resilience from the inside out. BUILD — The FutureYou Method™ Group Program And sometimes you don't need another advanced protocol. You need the foundations in the right order. My group program begins with Muscle Health & Metabolism — Build Before You Burn, where we focus on creating the signals required to build and maintain muscle, support metabolism, recover from training, and become more resilient as we age. From there, we continue into FLOW—supporting the nervous system, circulation, lymph, fascia, oxygen delivery, and drainage—and then Digest • Absorb • Build, where we focus on digestion, nutrient absorption, gut function, and providing the raw materials required to repair and rebuild. Together, these three approaches give us different entry points into the same mission: Test when we need data. Investigate when we need answers. Build when we need stronger foundations. Throughout this solo series, I'll help you understand the science behind all three. Because this isn't about chasing another supplement, biohack, diet, workout, or longevity trend. It's about understanding what your body is communicating, identifying the signals that may be driving adaptation, and creating the conditions that allow your body to become stronger and more resilient. Build before you burn. Foundations before optimization. The right signals, in the right order. Because your future health isn't created someday. Your future self is being built by the signals you create today. Welcome to Build Your FutureYou.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Feed Your Soul with Kim Podcast we are returning to our roots as a podcast and talking about intuitive eating and movement. We explore the harmful mindset of using exercise as punishment for eating. We look at how diet culture connects food and movement in toxic ways. Lastly, how to shift toward a loving, intuitive relationship with your body and movement.In this Feed Your Soul with Kim episode we look at: 1)    How exercise as punishment destroys motivation to move2)    Reframing exercise as "movement" helps disconnect it from the calorie-burning, punishment mindset3)    4 questions to ask yourself about your relationship with food and exercise Time stamp:[0:00] Intro and episode overview: moving your body because you care for it vs. exercising to punish yourself[0:40] What it means to "burn off what you ate": the guilt-driven cycle of eating, feeling bad, and exercising to compensate[1:40] Why "exercise as punishment" makes us not want to move at all, the last thing to recover in eating disorder work is healthy movement[2:20] Reframing the question: "What would feel good for my body today?" instead of "How many calories do I need to burn?"[2:50] What today's episode covers: why we feel we need to burn off food, how exercise becomes punishment, the connection between movement/body image/diet culture, and how to move your body from a place of love[4:30] "What does it mean when exercise becomes punishment?" =common self-talk: "I was bad yesterday," "I can't skip my workout," "I don't deserve to eat unless I've exercised"[7:00] Why we feel we have to burn off what we eat: labeling foods as "bad," eating as something to compensate for, and the exhausting restrict → overeat → guilt → exercise → restrict cycle[10:50] Exercise and body image: how workout culture reinforces "paying the price" for how your body looks, and how this kills motivation to move[13:15] Shifting from "I need to fix my body" to "I love my body and want to feel good in it"[13:45] Reimagining healthy movement: asking what your body needs, what kind of movement you enjoy, and following what makes you feel strong (Kim's shift from HIIT to yoga and stand-up paddleboard)[15:50] The importance of rest as part of healthy movement, getting off the constant activity hamster wheel[16:45] Kim's personal story: not eating and then running in college, diet centers that tied food allowance to exercise, and how she healed her relationship with movement[19:20] The connection to intuitive eating: learning to trust your body again[20:00] Doables = questions to ask yourself:1. Why am I exercising right now? Am I doing it because I feel guilty about what I've eaten?2. What does my body really need or want; movement, rest, food, water, sleep, connection? And if movement, what kind?3. Can I remove food from this equation and disconnect physical movement from "paying the price" for eating?[22:00] Closing message: You don't have to earn your food, you don't have to punish yourself for eating, and you don't have to hate your body to take care of it. Movement is fun, it provides strength, energy, and stress relief. Please note this podcast is not a substitute for mental health therapy or seeing your physician.

Not the business. The bullshit around it.This is the final episode of The Art of Positioning.And no, this is not a neat little farewell episode where everyone pretends they had the plan all along.Beatrice sits down with Elijah Drown, the person who helped turn a random conversation into this podcast, has been behind the scenes since day one, and has never been afraid to call her out when she is talking nonsense.They talk about why The Art of Branding became The Art of Positioning. What changed when the podcast stopped trying to fit inside a familiar category. And what happens when you stop forcing a business, a brand, or a plan to keep going in a direction that no longer fits.There is talk of letting go of control, unexpected opportunities, guru bullshit, AI templates, the category trap, and why “being nice” is not a positioning strategy.But there is also a harder question underneath all of it:What do you burn when you are done pretending the old way still fits?Not the business. Not the trust you have built.The labels. The borrowed language. The safe version of your voice. The shiny “rebrand” that changes nothing underneath.If you are tired of being compared on price, filed into the same category as everyone else, or trying to look different without making different decisions, this conversation is for you.-02:35 The category trap that makes businesses comparable05:10 Why the podcast repositioned halfway through09:20 Letting go of control and the 13 Wishes ritual16:45 What happens when you stop forcing the plan24:05 Why most “rebrands” are really boredom, ego, or panic32:00 How positioning became a business-wide decision39:30 Being nice is not the same as being distinctive49:30 Stop being a template-Episodes to binge:Good at Everything, Priced Like It⁠ with Christine Slocumb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Brand strategy in action⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Cam Varner⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Repositioning to $10M⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Nicole Downer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Your Business Might Be Unsellable⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Allie Beckmann and Alexandria Seydel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Repositioning Without Losing Customers ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠with Amy Heidersbach & Melissa Eaton-Reach out and follow Beatrice Gutknecht:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | The Mob Archives Newsletter

This episode explores what high performance can cost the body when health is ignored for years. Lisa G sits down with Ageless Future founder Regan Archibald to discuss accelerated biological aging, why high-performing executives frequently wait too long to address their health, the Four Pillars of Rapid Health Transformation, biological-age testing, VO2 max, regenerative medicine and peptides, and why establishing objective health baselines matters before attempting to "optimize" anything. The central question: What if the exhaustion, declining performance, and poor recovery you call burnout are telling you something much bigger?

In this episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with Charles Stull, Senior Director of Performance Nutrition at the UFC Performance Institute, for a fascinating look behind the scenes at what it actually takes to help some of the world's highest-performing combat athletes prepare, recover, and compete at their best.Charles shares his journey from Division I swimming and competitive Muay Thai to becoming a sports dietitian and eventually joining the UFC Performance Institute. What began as a two-dietitian operation has grown into a global performance nutrition team supporting UFC athletes throughout their preparation, fight week, recovery, and everything in between.Ben and Charles dive deep into the details most fans never see. Charles breaks down the science behind weight cutting, dehydration, rehydration, nutrition, recovery, and how fighters can strategically rebuild their bodies between stepping on the scale and stepping into the Octagon. It's an incredible look at how much precision goes into the moments before the bright lights ever turn on.But the lessons go far beyond fighting.Charles explains that the highest performers don't simply have goals and purpose—they build a “moat” around themselves. They protect their energy, create the right environment, surround themselves with people who support their pursuit, pay attention to what they consume, and eliminate the distractions that slowly pull them away from their STANDARD. Those seemingly small decisions are what allow great performers not only to reach the top, but to stay there.Charles also opens up about his own BURN and the influence of his mother, who challenged him from an early age to discover his limits. That mindset led him toward difficult pursuits throughout his life—from swimming to Muay Thai to one of the most demanding areas of performance nutrition—because he continually chose the harder path as a way to strengthen his mind, body, and spirit.This conversation is a reminder that elite performance isn't built only in the moments everyone sees. It's built through preparation, discipline, recovery, environment, and an obsession with the little things.Whatever YOUR arena is, ask YOURSELF: Are YOU paying enough attention to the details that could take YOUR performance to another level?************************************Connect with Charles Stull:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_angry_dietitian/?hl=enFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/charles.h.stull************************************Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/fcrOAPfiH98Listen on all platforms: https://www.theburnpodcast.com************************************Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD:  https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a messageOrder my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewmanConnect with me everywhere else:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

You're ready to start dating after divorce. You join the dating apps, you start to read profiles and immediately feel lost. You start to question, is this normal? Is he for real? Maybe he's too good to be true? Or are they all like this? Then you start to question yourself instead. Maybe I'm being too picky. Maybe I'm the problem. Maybe I should give him a chance. Then you think, maybe I should just give up altogether...For the final episode of my dating, love, and intimacy series, I'm joined by Dr. Jennie Young, professor of rhetoric, creator of the Burned Haystack Dating Method, and author of Burn the Haystack: Decode Dating, Torch the Duds, and Make Room for Men Who Matter. Jennie studies how people reveal what they believe through the words they choose, usually without realizing it. She has turned that into an online Facebook community of over 295,000 women.If you're opening the dating apps for the first time since your divorce (or for the first time ever), this conversation is your field guide.In this episode:Why "burn the haystack" is the opposite of the "it's a numbers game" advice we've all been givenWhy instant, electric chemistry may be your nervous system registering fear, not loveWhy feeling nothing on a first date doesn't mean something's wrongBlock to burn, and why you should treat dating like a job searchRed-flag patterns to decode, including disciplinary directive (yes, even "let's grab coffee") and trad-wife code wordsThe profiles that look good if you're coming out of a hard marriage: "my kids come first," "looking for my peace," and "the final piece of the puzzle," and what they're really sayingHow her method slows your intuition down enough that you can trust itGreen flags, and real hope for finding love later in lifeTo skip right to the interview go to 3:37 time code. Connect with Jennie Website: https://jennieyoung.com Substack: https://burnedhaystack.substack.com (everything is free to read) Instagram: @wordcasescenario Facebook: search "Burned Haystack Dating Method" and join the largest group.

Harvey's gross margin fell from roughly positive 50% at the start of 2026 to negative 50% by June, so every $1 of revenue cost $1.50 to deliver. Sam Jacobs, CEO of Pavilion, AJ Bruno, CEO of QuotaPath, and Asad Zaman, CEO of STA, go hosts-only on when AI growth justifies margins like that, why open weight models are no substitute for frontier intelligence, and what happens to the application layer if the exuberant market funding it goes away. Plus, AJ's 100x raise from 2021, a 68% jump in tech M&A and what it means for employee equity, and a Bulls and Bears round on AI catastrophe before 2031. Key Takeaways: - Negative gross margins can be a phase if there's a way out. Sam's straw man: "Above 200% growth, I can tolerate bad margins temporarily if you can show me you have a path to a good business." Between 100% and 200% he wants "a clear improving trajectory," and below 50% the margins have to be good. - Cheaper models fix the margin line but can break the product. Asad likened the switch to open weight models to "going from hiring people only from Harvard to then going and hiring people from the worst university you can find or some mid-tier university and saying it's the same thing." That leaves application companies "completely at the behest of these model companies." - The 2021 hangover is still on cap tables. AJ raised QuotaPath's Series B "at a 100x valuation in '21," but with SaaS multiples at "1x or less than 1x," he said, "If I wanted to go sell QuotaPath today, I really couldn't find a buyer." Asad countered that secondaries changed the math: "The founders are making a lot of money along the way."

2026-08-23 - Change Your Appetite - Turn and Burn - Pastor Jeremy Bosma by Avenue Church

(Part 4)Speaking of that time of year, Crash and Burn has been going for fifteen years, so it should really count as an annual tradition at this point. After wrestling with tech problems for a while, Tim joins us to remind everyone to be at Acme Tuesday through Saturday. That's right, you have to be there every day or it doesn't count.

On the Relentless Pursuit Podcast, host Joe Adams interviews Vince Hall, a Texas transplant building Decre Training in Nashville.At 18, Vince Hall was a college football player chasing the NFL when gunmen opened fire inside a small club in Jackson, Tennessee. He was shot twice. Doctors weren't sure he'd run again.He came back anyway. He rehabbed in a Houston garage with no idea what he was doing, walked on at the University of Houston, and fought his way up the depth chart fueled by pure anger. Then a torn tricep ended his career for good.Coaching gave him a new purpose, but he hid his story from the athletes he was mentoring for years. Now Vince and his wife Sophie have moved to Nashville to build Decree Training, and just as the momentum hit, he tore his Achilles. Same leg he got shot in.This isn't a comeback story told from the other side. Vince is in the storm right now.In this episode, Joe Adams and Vince go deep on identity, stoic fathers, anger versus gratitude, faith under pressure, and what it actually takes to break a cycle instead of repeating it.Connect with Vince:decreetraining.comInstagram + Facebook: @decreetrainingPersonal: Vincent HallThe Relentless Pursuit Podcastrelentlesspursuitlifestyle.com00:00 Club Shooting Survival00:51 Podcast Welcome Intro01:44 Meeting at Fit Expo02:33 Rugby Achilles Tear05:11 Business Marriage Pressure08:30 Faith Pivot Mindset17:50 Burn the Boats Commitment22:48 Houston Roots Family Hustle27:50 Mom Gets Sick Dialysis33:32 Sports Drive Family Struggle37:28 Pressure to Prove Yourself38:07 Caring for Mom and Guilt39:22 Away From Home With Family39:55 High School Glow Up and Football Dreams43:20 Coaches, Culture, and Bad Grades44:52 Recruiting Reality Check47:26 Lane College Leap of Faith51:01 College Ball Then Losing Focus53:09 Nightclub Shooting and Survival01:00:46 Identity Shattered After Getting Shot01:04:24 Rudy Mindset and Letting Go of Shame01:09:44 Rehab Grind Back to Football01:17:16 Decreeing the Goal01:18:24 Training Like Pros01:19:11 Sleeping on an Air Mattress01:20:43 Tryouts and Making Roster01:21:25 Anger as Fuel01:23:53 Coach Demands Control01:26:41 Grades Wake Up Call01:28:29 Breaking Down the Shot01:30:52 Injury Derails Momentum01:31:35 Triceps Tear Ends Career01:37:24 Rehab Sparks New Path01:39:20 Becoming a Strength Coach01:42:18 Hiding the Origin Story01:44:32 Layoff and Old Habits01:46:43 Building Decree Brand01:50:15 Why Nashville Made Sense01:52:38 Pivoting Into Purpose01:53:51 Turning Anger to Gratitude01:58:35 Get Out and Grind01:59:21 Old School Masculinity02:00:07 Learning Vulnerability02:01:46 Injury and Community Support02:04:53 Training Beyond Aesthetics02:06:37 Breaking the Cycle02:10:00 Faith Under Pressure02:13:49 Belief and Self Worth02:17:54 Make Your Decree02:19:39 From Coach to Leader02:21:41 Becoming Tactical Vince02:24:55 Relentless Resilience02:28:15 Relentless Pursuit and Legacy02:30:15 Where to Find Decree02:31:00 Final Thanks and Goodbye

Midnighters,This one is personal. I've been playing Groovecreator's music for fifteen years. His records have filled countless hours of this show and many nights behind the decks. Bringing him to you as a guest on this bonus episode feels like a full-circle moment.He's sharing something special: a live recording from his set at Playground during Burning Man 2026, captured in Black Rock City. If you couldn't be in the desert this year, this is the closest you'll get to dancing in the dust at sunrise.The set opens with an unreleased Chicago acid track he made with house legend Roy Davis Jr. From there, it takes you through a Led Zeppelin bootleg, a club edit of Radiohead, and Prydz's Pink Floyd rework. Then it lands on "I Feel Love" by Moroder and Donna Summer, the record that arguably started it all. The last stretch builds into peak-time house and techno, ending with Carl Cox's remix of "Talamanca," a nice nod to the man behind Playground.Big thanks to Groovecreator for trusting us with this recording. If it moves you, follow him via https://linktr.ee/Groovecreator and let him know. Nothing means more to an artist than hearing that it landed.Now for the part that makes me happiest. On Saturday, 3 October 2026, Groovecreator joins me on my rooftop at the Tomorrowland Ibiza Rooftop Sessions. After fifteen years of playing his tracks, I'm still letting that sink in.He plays from 20:00 to 21:00, with Rebeca Ark before and after. You'll find us at the Tomorrowland Ibiza Store in the Ibiza Gallery, Platja d'en Bossa. The guest list is free, so bring your crew and sign up here: https://www.fourvenues.com/vanesa2/events/tomorrowland-ibiza-rooftop-sessions-03-10-2026-WXGTIf you come because of the show, come find me and say hi.

Content marketing is changing, and Joe and Robert believe the traditional model may finally be reaching the end of the road. In this special episode of This Old Marketing, the guys look ahead to the state of content marketing in 2027 and present two different, but complementary, models for what comes next. Joe goes deep on the Trust Portfolio, a strategy for organizations to build a diversified collection of trusted human voices instead of relying almost entirely on the corporate brand. He walks through how companies can identify the audiences where trust matters most, find the right people to serve them and build human-led content franchises designed to create ongoing audience relationships. Robert introduces The Plural Brand, his framework for a world where AI makes every company capable of producing polished, professional and increasingly similar content. Instead of trying to manufacture one perfectly consistent brand voice, Robert argues that organizations need distinctiveness, multiple credible human voices and the ability to earn trust one audience at a time. Two frameworks. Two perspectives. One big question: What does content marketing become when creating more content is no longer the answer? Resources from the episode Joe Pulizzi: How to Build a Trust Portfolio Includes the full article, the free Trust Portfolio Field Guide and the companion Trust Portfolio Worksheet. https://www.thetilt.com/marketing/how-to-build-a-trust-portfolio Robert Rose: The Plural Brand Includes Robert's free Plural Brand eBook. https://www.seventhbear.com/the-plural-brand/ ------- This week's sponsor:Did you know that most businesses only use 20% of their data?

What does it actually take to build a real estate business that lasts?I'm sitting down with my real estate bestie Karen Cooper, founder of Empowering Women in Real Estate, to talk about what she's learned over 24 years in this business.We're talking about the one thing she consistently sees holding real estate agents back, why prospecting doesn't have to mean cold calling, and the simple weekly activities she's repeated for DECADES to continue generating referrals and business.But we also get into a conversation I think more experienced agents need to hear: What happens when the business you've built no longer fits the life you want?Karen stepped out of personal production seven years ago, but she never stopped nurturing the relationships and business she spent years building. She shares how she made that transition, what she would do differently, and why leaving production doesn't have to mean walking away from everything you've built.Whether you're trying to get your real estate business off the ground or you're wondering what your next season could look like, this conversation is such a good reminder that there isn't only one way to build a successful real estate business.CONNECT WITH KAREN:Instagram: https://instagram.com/karen.w.cooper Website: https://empoweringwomeninrealestate.com/ EMPOWERING WOMEN IN REAL ESTATE CONFERENCE:September 29–30 | Herndon, Virginiahttps://empoweringwomeninrealestate.com/conference-2026/ ✨ Join the Bestie community:https://rosemarylewis.com/list ✨ Six Figure Bestie:https://rosemarylewis.com/sixfigurebestie ✨ Accelerator Coaching:https://rosemarylewis.com/coachJoin the Six Figure Bestie, the community for women in real estate who are ready to build a six-figure business with Christ at the center.

Xaver Lehmann co-founded e-bot7 from a university dorm after seeing a Facebook post about chatbots on a train ride home from King's Day in Amsterdam. Five years later, the company had 130 employees, five European offices, and a $60 million acquisition offer from a Nasdaq company. He was 28. From the outside, it was the whole checklist.In this episode, Xaver and I get into what it was like building with investor money as a first-time founder, the clauses in VC contracts nobody warns you about, and why he walked away from a $25 million Series B to chase the acquisition with only weeks of cash left. We talk about the moment the deal fell apart, why he and his cofounder declined the revised terms anyway, and how the buyer came back on a Saturday and restored the original offer. Then we get into what happened after the money landed: months of depression so deep he couldn't even drive, two years working for the company that acquired him while completely burnt out, and being asked to fire 85 of his own people when the acquirer's stock collapsed.We also talk about his relationship with money as he came into financial success and what he's building now with The Honest Founder.If you've ever thought hitting a number would be the solution to all your problems, this one's for you.______(01:23) How he defined success as a kid(05:53) A Facebook post on a train that started a $60M company(08:23) Cold-emailing corporates with no product, no website, no name(10:19) Forbes 30 Under 30, 130 employees, but did any of it land?(13:14) What building with VC money is actually like(15:42) Would he raise from VCs again?(17:08) Walking away from a $25M Series B to chase an acquisition(19:36) Declining the revised deal with weeks of cash left(22:54) Why he wanted to sell(24:47) The buyer came back on a Saturday(27:50) What having money actually felt like vs. the fantasy(28:44) Not checking prices for the first time in his life(30:19) Showing up burnt out for a company that wasn't his anymore(34:00) Every Slack message felt like the end of the world(37:11) Purpose then vs. purpose now(39:42) Investing, coaching, and The Honest Founder(41:23) Would he build again? (45:58) What he'd tell founders chasing the dream he livedShow notes:Find show notes of each episode on ProfitLed.fm. Connect with our host:Follow Melissa on LinkedIn where she shares stories & lessons from her founder journey weekly.Connect with Melissa at melissakwan.com and subscribe to  'your founder next door', Melissa's weekly newsletter on what it's like to build a company without an abundance of resources and friends in high places.Follow @themelissakwan on Instagram and YouTube where she shares short videos of business advice and other truth-bomb sound bites.This podcast was brought to you by eWebinar:Find out how you can turn pre-recorded videos into interactive experiences with chat so you can run your demos, onboarding calls, and training sessions on autopilot, 24/7, without being there.

What if your body isn't broken—but adapting to the signals it receives every day? In this special solo series of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I'm taking you down the rabbit hole into the science behind The FutureYou Method™ and the framework that now guides my work: Foundations → Signals → Adaptation → Resilience After more than 30 years in health and fitness—and my own health breakdown after years of endurance training, chronic stress, under-recovery, and trying to do everything "right"—I learned that we can't simply keep pushing harder when the body stops responding. We need to ask better questions. What signals is the body receiving? What is it adapting to? And what does it need us to BUILD before we ask it to BURN? Throughout this series, we'll connect the dots between muscle, metabolism, mitochondria, the nervous system, vagal signaling, digestion, hormones, blood flow, lymphatic flow, recovery, energy availability, and healthy aging. We'll explore why exercise, protein, food, fasting, sleep, stress, breathing, light, movement, and recovery are more than lifestyle habits. They are biological signals. And when those signals are mismatched with your current capacity, even strategies we consider "healthy" can become additional stress. That is why my work today is built around three different ways of helping you move from guessing to understanding—and then into action. TEST — PNOĒ Metabolic Testing Sometimes we need objective data. With PNOĒ Resting and Active Metabolic Testing, I look beyond a single calorie number or VO₂ max score to identify patterns in resting metabolism, fuel utilization, breathing, exercise metabolism, metabolic flexibility, recovery, and potential clues about how your body is responding to its current environment. My philosophy is simple: Test. Don't guess. INVESTIGATE — Personalized FutureYou Method™ When your story is more complicated, we need to connect more dots. My personalized work using The FutureYou Method™ brings together your health history, symptoms, lifestyle, nutrition, training, recovery, functional health information, and metabolic patterns to investigate the bigger picture. Instead of chasing individual symptoms, we ask: What are the upstream signals contributing to the downstream patterns? Then we build a personalized roadmap designed to restore capacity and resilience from the inside out. BUILD — The FutureYou Method™ Group Program And sometimes you don't need another advanced protocol. You need the foundations in the right order. My group program begins with Muscle Health & Metabolism — Build Before You Burn, where we focus on creating the signals required to build and maintain muscle, support metabolism, recover from training, and become more resilient as we age. From there, we continue into FLOW—supporting the nervous system, circulation, lymph, fascia, oxygen delivery, and drainage—and then Digest • Absorb • Build, where we focus on digestion, nutrient absorption, gut function, and providing the raw materials required to repair and rebuild. Together, these three approaches give us different entry points into the same mission: Test when we need data. Investigate when we need answers. Build when we need stronger foundations. Throughout this solo series, I'll help you understand the science behind all three. Because this isn't about chasing another supplement, biohack, diet, workout, or longevity trend. It's about understanding what your body is communicating, identifying the signals that may be driving adaptation, and creating the conditions that allow your body to become stronger and more resilient. Build before you burn. Foundations before optimization. The right signals, in the right order. Because your future health isn't created someday. Your future self is being built by the signals you create today. Welcome to Build Your FutureYou.

Spoilers for Spark, Glow, and Heat of the Kindred's Curse Saga + Chapters 44-55 of BurnThis week we are diving deeeepppp into chapters 44 - 55 and learning ONCE AGAIN that bonded bargains always have consequences, IYKYK. Diem has the roughest of weeks with some tough decisions. She's kidnapped by Ophiucae, only to discover they have more in common as father and daughter than she once thought. Lexi and Nicole are left hesitantly hopeful to see Henri starting his redemption arc (maybe) and we get more language that has FFG certain Diem and Luther are already mated but not talking about it. AND THEN this chapter stretch leaves off with Diem losing her powers??? This definitely has Nicole and Lexi wondering what on earth is going to happen in the next episode!

Send us Fan MailWhy do so many voice actors quit after their first year? In this episode I get into the three reasons I see most, and what you can do about each one. These are my personal opinions, and they're the reasons I built everything we do at VO Journey Academy the way I did.(01:56) The first reason is that they don't get work. Setting up your studio and learning your DAW can take a year on its own. Then it depends on where you train, because some places tell you to train for years before you go after work. I got my first job in my first month, a $50 audiobook, and after that I made sure I always had a job in the queue. If you want to never worry about getting work, aim for 40 to 50 auditions a day. If that's too much with a full-time job and a family, can you do 20 to 30?(08:46) The second is that they don't treat it like a business. When it feels like a hobby, we let our feelings decide what gets done. Look at your business from 20,000 feet, write down the actions that have to happen every day, and do them. Burn the boats.(15:16) The third is that they have no support. This is about the most isolated job there is. Find your people, even if it's one other person or a small group that meets on Discord every week. And watch out for the wrong group, the negative Nellies who tell you everything is bad and AI is going to kill everyone.If you want to join us, here's VO Journey Academy: https://www.avosjourney.com/join?src=podcast Or sit in on our live classes for free during Free Class Week, 12 to 15 October, at https://www.avosjourney.com/free-class-week-october-2026?src=podcast And there are over 750 free voice over scripts to practice with at https://www.avosjourney.com/scripts/Support the showSocial Links:   Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/anthony_pica_vo/Twitter - https://twitter.com/AVOsJOURNEYFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/avosjourney/ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonypicavo/ 

A man sits down to paint, and something takes his hands. For hours, he cannot stop, and when he finishes, he is staring at the most beautiful thing he has ever made. He also knows it is not his. It is the blue lady, and it wants to be worshiped. This is where Rick Hansen's family story turns, the moment his father crosses from curiosity into two years of worshiping Satan. Rick wrote a book about it, because he watched the aftermath play out in his own living room for the rest of his childhood.The painting later refuses to burn. Cut with a razor, the blue lady's face becomes Rick's mother's face, and tears rise on the canvas. His father eventually casts twelve demons out of himself and becomes the exorcist that frightened pastors keep on speed dial. Rick walks Luke and Nate through it all: the deliverances, the manifestations, and the entity that keeps trying to find a new host. It is one of the wildest testimonies we have ever put on this feed.You can only hear the whole thing as a member.

Libby Holman, a Jewish girl from Cincinnati, arrives in Manhattan in 1925 and begins to make a name for herself as a torch singer, trading on her racially-ambiguous skin tone and deep voice at a time when white hipsters think the height of cool can be found in Harlem. Libby and friends like Tallulah Bankhead sojourned uptown not just to listen to Black music, but also to explore their bisexuality. Through mutual co-star Clifton Webb, Libby meets Jeanne Eagels – one of the greatest actresses of her generation, and a high-profile casualty of Roaring 20s debauchery.(00:00) Torch Singer, Accused Murderess, Bisexual(09:05) A Confederate Jew(17:53) Sex Appeal to Burn(25:59) “Coon Shouting” and Libby's Racial Ambiguity(41:32) Blackface on Broadway with “Moanin' Low”(49:10) Sex Tourism in Harlem(58:28) Jeanne Eagels
