Kat shares how creators function as core capacity inside TWLOHA's storytelling ecosystem, how relationship-first partnerships have amplified their suicide prevention work, and why letting go of rigid expectations is often the unlock nonprofits are missing.If you're ready to rethink influence, move from staff-led to community-led storytelling, and build creator partnerships that actually scale trust in 2026, this episode is for you.Takeaways: Why creators should be treated as a core capacity, not a campaign add-onHow to build relationship-first creator partnerships rooted in trust and shared valuesWhat it really means to give up control without losing your messageHow creators help nonprofits scale impact through borrowed trustWhy community depth and engagement matter more than audience sizeEpisode Highlights:Creators as a Core Capacity, Not a Nice-to-Have (2:15)Relationship-First Creator Partnerships (4:40)Borrowed Trust: Scaling Impact Through Creators (6:50)Giving Up Control to Build Real Influence (12:40)Why Community Depth Matters More Than Audience Size (21:30)One Good Thing: Create Something Yourself to Build Empathy (29:30)Episode Shownotes: www.weareforgood.com/episode/678TWLOHA Save your free seat at the We Are For Good Summit

In this powerful and deeply human conversation, Dr. Michael Karlfeldt is joined by Bron Watson—registered nurse, educator, entrepreneur, and founder of The Serenity Project. With decades of experience in healthcare and two life-altering cancer diagnoses—breast cancer followed years later by incurable multiple myeloma—Bron brings a rare dual perspective: clinician and patient. Rather than being defined by diagnosis, she has transformed her lived experience into a framework for healing that integrates science, self-leadership, and soul.Bron shares her journey from passive patient to active participant, exploring what it truly means to become the CEO of your health. Together, she and Dr. Karlfeldt discuss navigating fear and uncertainty, asking empowered questions, and understanding what you can—and cannot—control. Bron introduces concepts such as the Serenity Project's “third space” (where science meets spirituality), the Serenity Prayer as a practical tool, capacity and the spoon theory, and strategies for managing fear without suppressing it. This episode also dives into integrative cancer care, functional medicine, mindset, and why healing is more than just physical outcomes.Whether you're facing cancer, supporting someone who is, or simply navigating uncertainty in life, this episode offers grounding wisdom and practical perspective. Bron's message is clear and compassionate: healing is personal, empowerment matters, and you can live fully—right where your feet are—no matter the diagnosis. This conversation is an invitation to step out of fear, reclaim agency, and find serenity even in life's hardest moments.Key Topics CoveredBecoming the CEO of your health as a cancer patientBron Watson's journey through breast cancer and multiple myelomaThe Serenity Project and the concept of the “third space” (science + soul)Managing fear, grief, and uncertainty without denialCapacity, energy management, and the spoon theoryIntegrative and holistic approaches alongside conventional oncologyAsking empowered questions and moving from passive to active careMindset, presence, and “being where your feet are”Why healing is not the same as longevityBuilding the right healthcare “team” beyond siloed medicine -----------------------------------------------A Better Way to Treat Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding, Preventing and Most Effectively Treating Our Biggest Health ThreatGrab my book here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM1KKD9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Unleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering CancerGet it here: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-powerPrice: $24.99100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1 Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of CancerGet it here: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-withinPrice: $24.99100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2-----------------------------------------------Integrative Cancer Solutions was created to instill hope and empowerment.

WBSRocks: Business Growth with ERP and Digital Transformation
Send us a textThis cluster of announcements illustrates how enterprise software vendors are converging on monetizable AI, composable ecosystems, and domain-specific depth rather than headline platform reinvention. Product expansions such as BillingPlatform's RevenueIQ suite, Epicor's outcomes-based ERP AI agent, and BlackLine's Verity for the CFO signal a shift toward AI that is tightly anchored to measurable financial and operational outcomes. At the same time, M&A and alliances—including IFS acquiring 7bridges, Salesforce's planned acquisition of Regrello, QAD partnering with Esker, and Versori partnering with Fluent Commerce—reinforce a strategy of filling execution gaps through targeted capabilities rather than broad-suite sprawl. Underpinning much of this activity, Oracle's deployment of GPT-5 across its database and SaaS portfolio underscores how foundational AI services are becoming embedded infrastructure, while workforce and go-to-market expansions from ActivTrak and Capacity's acquisition of KLaunch highlight continued investment in productivity, adoption, and execution at the edges of the enterprise stack.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories. We covered many grounds, including the direction and roadmaps of each enterprise software vendor. Finally, we analyzed future trends and how they might shape the enterprise software industry.Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdCqxl1NXBIQuestions for Panelists?

In this episode, we reflect on the tender and often misunderstood topic of forgiveness, what it is, what it isn't, and why it's central to finding freedom in Christ. We talk honestly about how resentment and unforgiveness can quietly build in the heart, often as an attempt to protect ourselves from further pain. We also acknowledge how difficult forgiveness can be, what to do with the cry of our hearts when we have been wounded, and how to entrust it to God when we don't yet feel capable of forgiving. Friends, forgiveness does not strip us of our identity, it affirms who we are in Christ. Even in the deepest places of hurt, we find hope because of the loving presence of a God who never abandons us in our pain. Heather's One Thing - Greatness of the Lord by Brooke Ligertwood Heather's Other One Thing - The Franciscan University Community Sister Miriam's One Thing - Heather's Battle Cry Playlist Michelle's One Thing - Congratulations to Indiana University for winning the championship! Michelle's Other One Thing - The Correspondent by Virginia Evans Other Resources Mentioned: Forgiving as Unity with Christ: A Journey for Healing Resentment and Relationships by Dr. Robert Enright Announcement: Our 2026 Lenten book study will be "The Way of Trust and Love" by Fr. Jacques Philippe. Scepter Publishers has offered 15% off with the code ABIDE15. They also offer an ebook version as well. We will announce more information about the study in the coming weeks! Journal Questions: What are the unhealed places of your heart? Are you angry, sad, or frustrated at the wrong you've endured? How have I experienced shame about the wrongs I've endured or my own unforgiveness? How has this affected my health, wellbeing, or energy? How do I replay or obsess over the conflict I experienced? How have I given into constant comparison in my unforgiveness? What major changes have occurred in my life because of the injustice I've experienced and how have they affected me? Has this experience led to a more negative worldview? How has my sense of self changed? Am I seeing myself as worthless? Discussion Questions: How have you been sweeping things under the rug and calling it forgiveness? What deeper feelings lie beneath your resentment? Where in your life do you need to repent and take personal responsibility? Who has modeled repentance and forgiveness well in your life? How does your heart react to conflict and wrongdoing in relationships? Quotes to Ponder: "Ultimately, we can really forgive people only because Christ rose from the dead; his Resurrection is the guarantee that God can cure every wrong and every hurt." (Fr. Jacques Philippe, Interior Freedom) Resentment attacks our vital forces and does us much harm. When someone has made us suffer, our tendency is to keep the memory of the wrong alive in our minds, like a "bill" we will produce in due time to demand settlement. Those accumulated bills end up poisoning our lives. It is wiser to cancel every debt, as the Gospel invites us to. In return, we will be forgiven everything, and our hearts will be set free, whereas nurturing resentment toward others closes us to the positive things they could contribute to us." (Fr. Jacques Philippe, Interior Freedom) Scripture for Lectio: "Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother who sins against me? Up to seven times?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not just seven times, but seventy-seven times!"" (Matthew 18:21-22) Sponsor - Blessed is She: "Who do you say that I am?" Jesus didn't ask this because He was uncertain of His identity. He asked because we often are. The disciples had walked with Him. They had seen the miracles. They had heard the teaching. And still, when the question was asked, many hesitated. Because proximity to Jesus does not automatically mean intimacy. So often, our understanding of God is shaped by what we've absorbed over time—what we were taught, what we experienced, what others modeled for us. And without noticing, we begin to believe stories that aren't true.That God is distant. That He is easily disappointed. That love must be earned. That holiness requires perfection. But Jesus does not leave us guessing. He tells us who He is: I am the Light of the World. I am the Bread of Life. I am the Good Shepherd. I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life... Join Blessed is She this Lent to journey with Jesus to Jerusalem in Who Do You Say That I Am? by Debra Herbeck.

Jennifer shares practical examples (including a “board recruitment sprint”), how to spot the gaps volunteers can fill beyond program delivery, and why the volunteer experience must be digitally enabled to fit real life. You'll also hear why the simplest lever still matters: people volunteer because they're asked — and that invitation is fully in your control.If you're ready to treat participation like a strategy (not an afterthought) and build a volunteer engine for 2026, this one's for you.Episode Highlights:Volunteers as Strategic Plan Accelerators (3:10)The “Board Recruitment Sprint” + Activating Volunteer Leaders (9:20)What's Driving a Rise in Volunteer Interest + How to Respond (15:40)Building Volunteer Infrastructure on a Lean Team (22:30)Designing a Digitally-Enabled Volunteer Experience (30:10)One Good Thing: Craft the Invitation That Gets People to Say Yes (37:45)Dive Deeper: pointsoflight.org - Sign up for Points of Light's monthly newsletter, packed with resources, trainings, and webinars.Episode Shownotes: www.weareforgood.com/episode/677Save your free seat at the We Are For Good Summit

In this episode, Shelby and Laura take listeners behind the scenes of what it actually means to become a professional nurse coach. This is not a conversation about hype or shortcuts. It is a real, nuanced discussion about capacity, confidence, identity shifts, and why being new can feel so disorienting in leadership and entrepreneurship. They unpack why nurse coaching is inherently pioneering work, why confidence can never come before action, and how repetition, community, and regulation are what allow nurse coaches to stay in the game long enough to succeed. This episode normalizes the discomfort of growth and reframes it as a necessary, meaningful part of building a sustainable practice and a new professional identity.Highlights in the discussion:Confidence is built through repetition, not readiness.Discomfort is part of becoming a professional, not a sign to quit.Capacity means staying present with uncertainty without collapsing or overcorrecting.Community matters because it prevents isolation and early burnout.Residency acts as failure insurance, giving nurse coaches support, feedback, and structure while they build real-world experience.Sustainable success comes from staying in the process long enough for competence and self-trust to form.Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/7ncLBZ36bW4Mentioned in this episode:Book the callYou don't need more information — you need a container that makes action unavoidable.

What does it actually take to run a successful play café once you're past the opening phase—especially when your space is larger than most independent, non-franchise-chain locations?In this episode of the Profitable Play Podcast, I sit down with Kristina Lai, owner of Busy Bee Play Cafe in Indianapolis, Indiana. Their 8,500+ sq ft facility is on the larger side for a non-chain indoor playground business, which brings its own unique challenges and advantages.On the challenge side, a larger space means a bigger team (often with a high number of teenage staff), higher capacity to manage, more moving parts operationally, and the ability—and pressure—to run a high volume of birthday parties every single week. On the flip side, that size also creates real opportunities: multiple parties running at once, diversified revenue streams beyond open play, a full balloon bar, stronger café potential, and more flexibility in how the business actually makes money.In this conversation, Kristina shares a candid, behind-the-scenes look at how she navigates both sides of that equation.We cover:...Operating a larger independent play café without franchise systems...Managing a large, mostly teenage team in peak seasons...Running a high volume of birthday parties each week—and why systems matter...Hosting multiple parties at the same time without overwhelming staff or guests...Real revenue breakdowns: open play, parties, memberships, café sales, retail, and balloons...Building a profitable balloon business after Party City closures...Using reservations and memberships to control capacity in a high-traffic space...When memberships attract the wrong families—and how to handle it...Letting go of problem members and employees (and why some money isn't worth it)...Launching hot food in a play café without turning it into a full restaurant...The emotional toll of running a large play business and being “always on call”...How ownership impacts family life when your kids grow up alongside the businessThis episode is especially helpful if you:...Own or are planning on opening a play café or indoor playground...Are considering (or already running) a larger-than-average independent space...Run frequent birthday parties and want better systems...Want multiple revenue streams without burning out...Are managing staffing, capacity, or boundaries
On the latest Nomad Futurist Podcast, co-hosts Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence sit down with Adam Gibson, Director of techvox and a Nomad Futurist Foundation Ambassador, to discuss his unconventional journey into data centers and fiber. The conversation spans his work across Australia, New Zealand, and APAC, highlighting how curiosity, community, and fundamentals can drive a long, global career in digital infrastructure. Adam's journey begins in his early teens, as a 13-year-old immersed in video games, building LANs with friends and running grassroots events that unknowingly set the foundation for his first data center role: “I came straight from high school into the space and haven't looked back… I'm still technically uneducated. However, data centers make you run fast and learn quick.” Throughout the episode, Adam underscores a core truth of the industry: today's AI platforms, hyperscale campuses, and cloud services are built on the same foundational principles he first encountered in early server farms and the dial-up gaming era. He argues that the Internet has become a true utility, selected alongside power, water, and gas when moving into a home, yet its physical foundations are often taken for granted: “We still need the fundamentals… people's crazy cat videos, AI videos, e-mails and everything else need to be stored somewhere, cooled somewhere, powered somewhere and connected somewhere.” That perspective carries into Adam's work as a Nomad Futurist Foundation Ambassador, where he is focused on attracting new talent as data center and subsea investment accelerates across APAC. He highlights Australia's role in global subsea connectivity and New Zealand's renewable energy strength as forces turning the region into a critical digital crossroads in need of skilled people. His message to newcomers is clear and encouraging. Opportunities span mechanical systems, networking, AI, and operations, and success comes from respecting the fundamentals and staying curious: “Don't just jump in as a VP going ‘I've got this'… work yourself into it; there's a spot for you.” The episode also shows the human side of a global career: Adam relies on music, movement, and simple meals to stay grounded while traveling for industry events and work, logging more than 100 flights and navigating relentless time zones. He highlights major event hosts, all partners and supporters of the Foundation, showcasing the community-driven side of the industry. While he plans to slow down, his commitment to the field remains unwavering: “I'll never miss a PTC, I'll never miss an ITW, I'll never miss a Capacity or a DataCloud… but at some point it's about lifestyle and support.” Connect with Adam Gibson on LinkedIn to continue the conversation and learn more about his work across APAC, digital infrastructure, and talent development.
Send us a textIf you've been feeling like something in your business no longer fits but you can't quite name it, this episode is for you.As we step into a new year, brand positioning and leadership evolution are coming up again and again in my work with high-level, visionary women. And what I'm seeing is this: many women aren't lacking clarity or capability, they're operating from a brand that reflects who they used to be.In this episode, we talk about the real cost of outdated brand position financially, energetically, and emotionally and why early vision branding was never meant to hold mature leadership.We explore: → Why you are already more qualified than you think→ How brand evolution mirrors leadership evolution→ The difference between potential and embodiment→ Why effort and busy work can actually block expansion→ What it means to claim your position in the arena (instead of circling the edges)This conversation isn't about hustling harder or proving yourself. It's about alignment. Capacity. And having a brand that can actually carry your authority, nuance, and next-level vision.If you're standing at the edge of an evolution, feeling the pull toward something bigger but unsure how to step into it, this episode will meet you right there.And if it resonates, I invite you to book a connection call with me. We'll look at where you are, where you're going, and what it would take to boldly position your brand for the leader you are now.Support the showIf you enjoyed this episode, subscribe wherever you are listening.

You can't say yes to everything .... so where do you draw the line?In Episode #511 of 'Meanderings', Juan & I discuss: the “hell yes versus no” decision-making lens and where it truly fits, opportunity cost/time constraints/certainty versus uncertainty, how emotion or rationality shapes decisions, stacking reasons to make a strong yes, a practical quadrant for choosing activities based on enjoyment and likelihood of meeting people.

In this episode, Elliot Berman and John Byrne take a wide-ranging look at major developments shaping the AML and financial crime landscape worldwide. The conversation begins in Europe, with updates on the transition to the EU's new Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA), and early work to standardize suspicious activity reporting across EU member states. From there, the discussion turns to international cooperation, including public-private partnerships in Canada's fight against human trafficking, and regulatory coordination on cyber threats between the UK and EU. Back in the U.S., Elliot and John examine recent staff reductions at FinCEN, reflect on leadership changes at IRS‑CI, and discuss the implications of presidential pardons involving financial crime. The episode also highlights scam risks targeting retirees, ongoing debates around digital asset regulation and the proposed Clarity Act, and what financial institutions should be watching next.
In this solo episode, I reflect on my experiences as a leader in 2025, discussing the lessons learned about leadership, capacity, and the costs associated with growth. I share my journey from clinician to leader to CEO, emphasizing the importance of delegation, team empowerment, and maintaining a balance between accessibility and effectiveness. I also address the challenges of capacity and burnout, and candidly discuss the financial realities of business growth, including the impact of staffing and operational changes.Key Takeaways:Leadership requires vulnerability and authenticity.Comparing ourselves to others can be misleading.Delegation is essential for growth and scaling.Effective leaders inspire and empower their teams.Accessibility must be balanced with effectiveness.Energy and time are limited resources.Burnout can result from overextending oneself.Financial growth does not always equate to profitability.Julia's Links:WebsiteFree ConsultFacebookInstagram

In today's episode, Keshia Rice calls out a hard truth: many women say they want a loving, healthy relationship, but they are often unwilling or unable to truly receive and hold love. While many high-achieving women may have it all together in their careers and personal lives, the same patterns of giving without receiving hold them back from attracting the love they desire. Keshia dives deep into how feminine energy requires both the ability to receive love and to hold it and how many women unintentionally block this capacity. What You'll Learn... The two core components of feminine energy that attract love: receiving and holding Why many women struggle to accept love, compliments, and attention How churches and cultural conditioning may reinforce patterns of giving without receiving Need Support Along the Way?

Actor and meditation teacher Jeff Kober joins Medium Curious for a wide-ranging, funny, and helpful conversation about the mystery: why trying to force “concrete truth” can make our world smaller and more painful—and how learning to live in the question can reopen hope, possibility, and compassion. Jeff shares his origin story as a “reluctant meditator,” describing the inner hell of obsessive thoughts, the surprise of discovering he's not his mind, and why spiritual practice isn't about escaping life—it's about imbuing each moment with consciousness, including grief, fear, anger, shame, and joy. Along the way - Sarah, Jane, and Jeff explore ego, “knowers,” skepticism and mediumship, creativity as a spiritual path (acting, directing, orchestral music), and what it means to be an example of love without pretending you've “got it.” The “concrete truth” trap: When someone's certainty becomes unassailable, real conversation ends—and so does growth. Live in the question: Not having the answers isn't failure; it can be the practice. Meditation creates space: Jeff describes the shift from “my thoughts are me” to “my thoughts are over there.” Ego wants safety now: Separation fuels fear and control; remembering oneness invites compassion. How to deal with “knowers”: Stay supple—and “be the bullfighter, not the cape.” Art is a spiritual training ground: Acting, directing, and playing music all rehearse presence, collaboration, vulnerability, and truth. Skepticism can be healthy: Jeff stays open to spirit and meaning without forcing the “how.” The point isn't only “good vibes”: Consciousness wants the full human experience—joy and the honest depths of sadness, shame, anger, and grief. You're not ruined: At your center is something “pure, whole, and complete,” untouched by what happened to you—or what you've done. Jeff Kober “We're meant to live in the question.” “The universe itself is infinitely loving and kind.” “Consciousness can only embody by forgetting its oneness with itself.” “From individuality, we are solely and wholly at the mercy of the ego.” “Can I continue to expand my consciousness enough to contain even these seeming opposite realities?” Jeff Kober's Website Jeff Kober Instagram Join us on Substack for The Afterlife—bonus clips after the “mic is off” (wink).

Mexico's still-rising demand for U.S.-sourced natural gas — and new pipelines to deliver it — has been driven by the buildout of new power plants and, more recently, by planned LNG exports. Today, we discuss more private-sector midstreamers and the new gas demand that may bring them new opportunities.
Maintaining the ability to carry out everyday tasks and live independently is often described as a cornerstone of healthy ageing. But what actually happens to muscle strength, power, and functional ability as we get older? And how inevitable is their decline? At what point do changes in muscle function really begin to matter for day-to-day life? Is loss of strength an unavoidable consequence of ageing itself, or does it reflect something more modifiable? If declines are not fixed, what kinds of training or lifestyle interventions genuinely make a difference, and how strong is the evidence behind them? In this episode, exercise physiologist Dr Brendan Egan examines these questions through the lens of both epidemiological data and controlled training studies in older adults. What do we learn from short-term resistance training interventions lasting just a few months? Do the gains persist once supervised training ends? And what does this tell us about the practical challenges of maintaining functional capacity over the long term? The conversation also explores the idea of "use it or lose it" in muscle function, the role of resistance training in extending healthspan, and how exercise programmes can be designed to support independence later in life. Ultimately, the episode asks a simple but crucial question: what does the evidence actually say about staying strong, capable, and functionally independent as we age? Dr. Brendan Egan is an Associate Professor of Sport and Exercise Physiology the School of Health and Human Performance at Dublin City University. Currently, he is Associate Dean for Research in the Faculty of Science and Health.

They break down the Three C's—Character, Capacity, and Capital—why character matters more than most owners realize, what happens behind the scenes during bond claims, and how smart contractors increase bonding capacity without blowing up their business. If you want to bid bigger jobs, improve margins, and reduce risk, this is a must-listen.
Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode Krystal Zellmer tackles the capacity crisis facing automotive shop owners, challenging the idea that leadership has to be hard. The conversation centers on self-awareness, highlighting how recognizing automatic behaviors is the first step to becoming a more effective, intentional leader. Using her peanut M&M metaphor, Zellmer explains that while individuals are responsible for their results and emotions, those outer layers do not define their core identity. The discussion also draws a clear line between delegating and dumping, emphasizing that true leadership builds employee “muscle” through training, coaching, and mentorship rather than simply offloading tasks. Ultimately, shop owners are encouraged to see challenges and failures as the necessary “wind” that strengthens their roots and expands both personal and operational capacity.

In this episode of Building the Base, Hondo Geurts and Lauren Bedula sit down with Ken Bedingfield, Chief Financial Officer and President of Missile Solutions at L3Harris. This episode was recorded on December 6, 2025 at the Reagan National Defense Forum in Simi Valley, CA. Ken discusses his journey across the defense industrial base, from leadership at a traditional prime to serving as the 20th employee and CEO at venture-backed counter-UAS startup Epirus, to his current dual role at L3Harris. The conversation explores the fundamental shift from requirements-driven to capacity-driven defense strategy, and examines how L3Harris operates as the "tweener" between traditional primes and startups by making decisions in days rather than weeks.Five key takeaways from today's episode:Defense has shifted from requirements to capacity: The industry is moving away from chasing the last bit of capability or technology toward building production capacity at scale. Capacity itself has become a deterrent, driven by recognition of current conflicts and the real-world depletion of munitions stockpiles.Commercial contracting models benefit traditional primes too: L3Harris already derives 20% of sales through commercial models and strongly supports acquisition reform including eliminating cost accounting standards, reducing requirements, and expanding commerciality definitions; reforms often assumed to benefit only new entrants.Solid rocket motor production faces unique scaling challenges: Aerojet Rocketdyne's Camden, Arkansas facility spans 2,500 acres with 200 buildings and highly specialized regulations around explosive loads, storage, and safety. Scaling production requires understanding these complexities, suggesting new entrants should consider partnerships rather than building parallel capacity.Successful partnerships require mission alignment over technology hype: L3Harris positions itself as "connective tissue" between technology and mission capability. For example, partnering with Palantir to integrate AI into world-class electro-optic sensors rather than trying to build computer vision capabilities in-house. The key question for partnerships is "are we moving fast enough?"Public companies can innovate with the right focus: L3Harris has self-funded R&D in communications for 20 years without charging the government, and is transitioning other product lines to similar commercial models. While managing quarterly earnings and public market expectations isn't easy, publicly traded companies can find creative ways to invest and move at speed.Claude is AI and can make mistakes. Please double-check responses.
Todays' guest has done something that only happens once in a generation. He's helped found a new insurance industry trade body. Most insurance trade groupings tend to feel as if they have been around forever. Rightly so, because in various shapes or forms most of them have. New bodies only tend to be born because something has changed in the market that requires them to come into existence. Here the big change is the growth in MGAs on the continent of Europe and the new trade body is called FASE, the Federation of European MGAs or more correctly in its French and Latin-language friendly version, the Fédération des Agences de Souscription Européennes. Today's guest is FASE's Executive Director Willliam Pitt and this podcast is all about finding out what has brought about FASE's inception and what needs in the European MGA community it is intending to serve. William has had a remarkable career in insurance on both sides of the underwriting desk as well as in consultancy, insurance marketing and indeed insurance journalism. He is both passionate and articulate about the forum that FASE is looking to provide for the industry and the fundamental drivers behind the seemingly inexorable growth in this part of the global insurance value chain. This makes for a really informative and thought-provoking discussion. You'll learn a lot and by the end of this podcast you'll be wondering why FASE didn't come into existence far sooner. NOTES: FASE's annual conference, the MGA Rendezvous will take place at the Hotel Arts in Barcelona on May 11 and 12 2026. https://fasemga.com/rendezvous LINKS https://fasemga.com/ We thank our naming sponsor AdvantageGo: https://www.advantagego.com

Leverage Your Incredible Factor Business Podcast with Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, MBA
You have not lost your edge. You've outgrown a growth strategy built for a smaller version of you.” — Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon This episode is powered by The Ascension Archetype Quiz. Season 7 of the Move to Millions Podcast is about pulling back the curtain on a truth most CEOs are never told: success is not the problem. For many high-achieving entrepreneurs, the tension, heaviness, or resistance they feel as they grow is not a sign they are doing something wrong. It is a signal that who they are becoming is asking for a different way of leading. If you've been following the formulas, doing the work, and still wondering why growth feels heavier than it should, this episode is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed. This conversation goes beyond tactics and strategies and into the deeper work of identity and divine wiring, revealing why effort alone eventually stops working and what actually allows success to expand without costing you your peace, alignment, or sense of self. Here's the truth: Success doesn't create safety. It exposes the absence of it. Most leaders don't fail from lack of strategy, they fail because their internal capacity hasn't caught up to their external results. That's the silent sabotage happening in most seven-figure businesses. You'll walk with a radically new lens on your next level, one that prioritizes your divine wiring, nervous system regulation, and the necessity of internal congruence. You'll understand why your current tension is not a sign of failure—it's a signal that you're ready for a new kind of leadership and that your ascension has already begun. Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook, a pen and your favorite beverage and listen in to discover: ✔ How to recognize when your business model is no longer serving the version of you you've become ✔ How to discern the difference between strategic expansion and spiritual misalignment ✔ How to lead from embodiment rather than exhaustion at the seven-figure level ✔And so much more This episode is a call to release the outdated belief that more effort is the answer to expansion. If you've outgrown your old success strategies but don't yet trust what's next, this is your moment. It's time to set the tone for a new kind of seven-figure leadership: one anchored in alignment, identity, and internal safety. This is your invitation to stop forcing strategy to carry what only your nervous system can hold. You've evolved, but are you still running a business that reflects an earlier version of you? You'll hear the deeper reason success starts to feel like pressure, and what it means when your business is growing but your identity hasn't caught up. This conversation ignites the recalibration required to lead from your wholeness, not your hustle.

Capacity is.” — Dr. Darnyelle “Strategy assumes your nervous system can hold the outcomes you're pursuing.” — Dr. Darnyelle “Seven figures was never the destination. It was always the doorway.” — Dr. Darnyelle “Success doesn't automatically create safety—it removes the illusion of it.” — Dr. Darnyelle “Your strategy hasn't failed. Your identity just hasn't expanded to match it yet.” — Dr. Darnyelle Questions to Ask Yourself While Listening: Am I building a business that reflects the current version of who I am? Does my nervous system feel safe holding the level of success I've already achieved? Is my strategy compensating for an identity I haven't fully stepped into? What am I carrying that I was never meant to hold? What would shift if I led from my divine wiring instead of external pressure? Want more of Darnyelle?

Have you ever felt like you have done everything "right" and you still hit a stress ceiling? You have gone to therapy, set boundaries, practiced self-care, learned regulation, and yet you still find yourself snapping, shutting down, or running on empty. This episode explores what it can look like to move beyond coping and into true emotional capacity. Not a life without stress, but a wider internal ability to meet life as it is, without collapsing into burnout or disconnection. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof (founder of BrainBased.com and the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification) and Jennifer Wallace (Neurosomatic Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Guide, founder of Sacred Synapse) are joined by RaQuel Hopkins, a therapist and certified coach known for her work on capacity and adult development. Together, they unpack the difference between resilience, distress tolerance, and capacity, why "regulation" can sometimes become suppression, and how relating to emotions as data can create more choice. They also explore boundaries through the lens of self-trust, and why honoring "I do not want to" can be a meaningful step toward recovery and growth. Timestamps: 00:00 – Why "doing everything right" can still feel like a ceiling 06:30 – What capacity means (and why it is about who you become) 14:30 – Resilience vs distress tolerance vs capacity 23:30 – Emotional strength, fragility, and the regulation misconception 34:30 – Boundaries, self-trust, and choice vs depletion 46:30 – Protective emotions, curiosity, and integration 56:30 – Corporate environments, pressure, and being human at work 1:03:00 – Closing reflections and where to find RaQuel 1:05:30 – Listener invitation and next steps (trial + workshop) Key Takeaways: Capacity is not just "holding more." It can be about meeting life as it is and adapting without losing yourself. Regulation is not the same thing as calm. It is about modulation and appropriate responsiveness. Emotional strength includes feeling emotions without being defined by them. Emotions can be information, not directives. A "hard no" can sometimes be a signal of depletion, not clarity. Self-trust can reduce the need to announce boundaries. Protective patterns once helped you survive. Growth can start with curiosity rather than judgment.

On this solo episode:Stacey explains why entrepreneurs often feel stuck despite having strong strategies, revealing that the real issue is not capability, but insufficient capacity to sustain higher levels of pressure, visibility, and responsibility.Key Takeaways:-Growth isn't about doing more; it's about becoming more stable under pressure.-Stalling isn't failure — it's resistance to the next level of demand.-Sales doesn't expose skill gaps — it exposes capacity gaps.Tweetable Quotes:"Most business owners are wildly capable, but capacity is where things break. Capacity is emotional load, decision endurance, and how much uncertainty you can stay present with without forcing outcomes or pulling away." -Stacey O'Byrne"Stalling isn't the absence of movement — it's friction. And friction only appears when force is being applied in a direction the system isn't yet ready to sustain." -Stacey O'Byrne"The next level doesn't require more hustle. It requires more internal stability under pressure — and that's where real success is built." -Stacey O'ByrneResources:Instagram: @pivotpointadvantagehttps://pivotpointadvantage.com/sell-without-selling/Free Strategy Session: text Success to 646.495.9867Schedule a 15-minute call with Stacey: http://pivotpointadvantage.com/talktostaceyIf you're ready to take yourself and your business to the next level and are interested in a coaching program that will get you there check out: http://pivotpointadvantage.com/iwantsuccessJoin an interactive environment to help you build the success you've always wanted with other like-minded, success-driven entrepreneurs, business owners, and sales professionals: https://facebook.com/groups/sellwithoutselling
