In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive deep into the strategies and mindset shifts that elevate coaching businesses to elite status. The hosts explore the concept of the "upgrade effect," break down lessons from world-class entrepreneurs like Elon Musk and Dana White, and share real-world stories of perseverance, resilience, and client impact. Whether you're looking to sign more clients, level up your identity, or create lasting change in yourself and your business owners, this episode delivers actionable insights and frameworks you can apply today. Key Topics Covered The Upgrade Effect for Lasting Change Karl Bryan introduces the "upgrade effect"—the idea that real growth starts with upgrading identity, not just chasing better outcomes. He shares a flywheel model connecting mindset, beliefs, values, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves, encouraging coaches to focus on root identity shifts for meaningful, sustainable success. Lessons from Elite Entrepreneurs: Elon Musk's Five-Step Problem-Solving Karl Bryan distills Elon Musk's approach: Define clear requirements Eliminate what's not needed Simplify and optimize Accelerate cycle time Automate last—not first He connects this framework to product development, coaching delivery, and ensuring you're solving the right problems before optimizing or automating. Characteristics of High-Performing Coaches Elite coaches love measurement, accountability, and competition. They seek feedback, practice to improve, take radical ownership, and avoid victim loops. The hosts emphasize focusing on building who you are, not just what you have. Perseverance and the Dana White UFC Story Karl Bryan shares the saga of Dana White and UFC: relentless setbacks, repeated rejection, ghosting from networks, and eventually a billion-dollar turnaround. The lesson? Real impact comes from what you refuse to give up on—even when success feels impossible. Creating Long-Term Coaching Value The conversation moves from chasing clients and revenue to designing businesses that are tight, profitable, and systematized. The hosts challenge coaches to build companies that could be sold tomorrow (but are so enjoyable, you wouldn't want to). Notable Quotes "The real upgrade is identity first and then outcomes. It'll make the outcomes last—for you and your clients." —Karl Bryan "If it's not measured, it's underperforming—the elite tend to be measurement geeks." —Karl Bryan "You'll be remembered for what you refuse to give up on." —Karl Bryan "True intelligence isn't about being a high performer. It's measured by getting what you want." —Karl Bryan, paraphrasing Naval Ravikant "The goal is to make you wildly profitable. That's why you hired me. Let's stay on the railroad tracks." —Karl Bryan Actionable Takeaways Upgrade Your Identity First: Pause on chasing outcomes—start by shifting the stories and beliefs you hold about yourself. Encourage clients to do the same for lasting transformation. Always Measure Performance: Use data, leaderboards, and progress tracking to motivate elite behavior—for yourself and clients. "What gets measured, gets improved." Focus On Solving the Right Problems: Don't spend energy optimizing broken systems. Clarify requirements, eliminate waste, and simplify before automating. Practice Relentless Perseverance: Refuse to quit when setbacks hit. Study stories like UFC's Dana White—most breakthroughs come after the biggest obstacles. Serve and Study Before Selling: Give genuine value up front. Study the greats rather than envy them; ask questions and listen more than you justify or explain. Design Businesses for Profit and Fun, Not Just Size: Help clients build lean, profitable companies they enjoy running—rather than chasing bloat or revenue for its own sake.

This heartfelt dedication service beautifully conveys the profound joy and miraculous journey of World Harvest Church as it embarks on an exciting new chapter in its ministry. Brother Wells, with deep reverence, reflects on the extraordinary blessing of acquiring this remarkable facility—emphasizing that it is far more than just a building; it is a vibrant, living spiritual home. Drawing inspiration from the early church in Acts, his message highlights five essential pillars of a thriving faith community: steadfast leadership, genuine fellowship, committed prayer, generous giving, and passionate witnessing. The church is portrayed as a sanctuary and healing center where broken lives are restored, prodigals are welcomed home, and the Holy Spirit moves powerfully among the congregation. This dedication stands as a compelling call to faith, unity, and outreach—inviting all to experience and participate in the transformative power of God's love within a lively, growing community destined to shine brightly as a beacon of hope and salvation throughout the surrounding region.

Recorded live at CiderCon, this episode brings listeners into a rare, in-depth conversation about Chile's living cider tradition—one shaped by more than 450 years of apple fermentation, deep regional biodiversity, and community-based agriculture. Moderated by Eli Shanks, this panel features cider makers, cooperative leaders, and academics from southern Chile who explore how apples arrived, adapted, and endured across Araucanía, Los Ríos, and the Chiloé archipelago. Rather than a "new" cider movement, Chile offers something far rarer: a cider culture that never disappeared. At the heart of the discussion is Chicha—the traditional name for fermented apple beverages in Chile—and the cultural weight that language carries. Panelists unpack how Chicha and cider share the same roots, why heritage orchards matter, and what's at stake as aging farmers, development pressure, and climate change threaten seed-grown apple diversity. Listeners will also hear about: Heritage apple orchards over 100 years old, many grown from seed The role of women as primary stewards of orchards and biodiversity Native fermentation vessels made from Raulí and other Chilean woods Cooperative cider making on the island of Chiloé The challenges of valuing cider beyond "cheap, rural" perceptions The future of Chilean cider on the global stage, including education, competitions, and potential export This episode offers an essential perspective for anyone interested in cider as culture—not trend—and in how place, people, and history shape what ends up in the glass. Panelists & Contributors Eli Shanks – Co-founder, Punta de Fierro Fine Cider; Head Cider Maker, Western Cider Gicella – President, Cooperative Chilwe (Chiloé) René Galindo – Third-generation cider maker, Araucanía Carlos Flores – Co-founder, Punta de Fierro Fine Cider; Orchardist, Valdivia Fabián Lara – Cider & beer consultant; INDAP (Chilean Ministry of Agriculture) José Antonio Aldea – Professor and fermentation educator Key Themes Chilean cider and Chicha traditions Heritage apple orchards and seed-grown ecotypes Women's roles in orchard preservation Cooperative models and island agriculture Native materials and spontaneous fermentation Preserving cider culture in a changing landscape Timestamps ⏱️ Detailed timestamps are listed above to help you jump to specific topics, speakers, and cider discussions. 00:00 Introduction to Chicha and Cider 00:26 News Out and About  Ciderville  00:43 Episode Overview: Chilean Cider Panel 03:30 Upcoming Events and Announcements 07:42 Introduction to the Chilean Panel 10:44 Chilean Cider Regions and History 16:11 Traditional Cider Making in Chile 18:11 Modern Chilean Cider and Future Prospects 20:16 Cider Tasting and Panel Discussion 29:32 Consumer Perception of Cider in Chile 30:07 Challenges and Efforts in Differentiation 30:34 Traditional and New World Ciders 31:13 Exciting Apple Varieties and Characteristics 32:19 Naming and Regional Varieties 35:40 Incorporating Local Fruits into Cider 38:09 Historical Context and Apple Lineages 41:47 Fire Blight and Disease Resistance 42:57 Modern vs. Traditional Cider Making 44:15 Collaborations with Winemakers 47:12 Preserving Heritage Apple Orchards 52:10 Forming a Cooperative in Chiloé 54:53 Market Development and Sales Strategies 57:03 Generational Gaps and Preservation Efforts 59:08 Future Goals and International Connections Support Cider Chat® If you value independent, long-form conversations that preserve cider history and amplify global voices, consider supporting Cider Chat® on Patreon.

"This patient taught me a lot. The context was that I just finished my second training as a psychodynamic psychotherapist and I felt I needed to prove a lot, and I clearly arrived with the wrong agenda. It was that if I was good enough and smart enough, a clever enough just graduated psychodynamic psychotherapist, I would manage to get into why the patient is struggling so much with the realization of his mother's cancer. That is a resistance, he didn't want to touch the topic at all. I thought that if I uncover the underlying reason why the cancer of his mother was so extremely distressing, and be able to explore with him how he's processing this, I would be helping him. I was extremely wrong. The patient was really generous with me. What I meant is he was forgiving. He clearly was tolerating me trying to push for something he really had no appetite for." "Psychoanalysis is not only about clever interpretations. Psychoanalysis can be about the tools to help us feel what we are experiencing. And in those radical settings, you become almost the object you are projected to be and you need a frame of mind to ground you that you are not that and can offer something different. So that is why I thought it was really useful."  Episode Description: We begin with a description of the distinction between supportive and exploratory psychotherapy. Rodrigo presents clinical examples of individuals who were in crises and their capacity to be aware of their inner experiences was not available to them,  hence supporting their defenses was vital. In addition, "being with them" became a key aspect of the therapeutic benefit they gained. We consider patients who are phobic about intimacy and have backgrounds where trusting others proved to be actually dangerous. He also spoke of therapists who unknowingly privilege their own need to feel like an interpretive healer in the face of their patients' more immediate need to be listened to. Rodrigo alerts us to the risks of colluding with patients' binary view of the world and recommends helping them recognize that "the therapist may not always be on their side or share their perspective" - this is the creative challenge of supportive work. We close with his sharing with us his personal journey and his appreciation that psychoanalysis can be meaningful as well in settings 'off the couch'.   Our Guest: Rodrigo Sanchez Escandón Trained as a Clinical Psychologist in Mexico City and completed his Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy training at the Mexican Psychoanalytic Association before moving to London to undertake further psychoanalytic training at the British Psychoanalytic Association (BPA). He is currently the BPA's Director of Curriculum Subcommittee. He is also the Course Lead for Adult Psychotherapies at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust, overseeing programmes in London and the North of England. He previously lectured in the Department of Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies at Essex University, where he continues to supervise PhD students and pursue research. For seven years, Rodrigo worked extensively with individuals experiencing homelessness and complex needs, integrating psychoanalytic approaches into multidisciplinary care. He now maintains a private practice in Leeds, alongside his teaching and leadership roles.   Recommended Readings:   Winston, A., Rosenthal, R. N., & Roberts, L. W. (2020).

Originally aired on March 26, 2025Watch episode on Vimeo----------In this episode, we dive into the dynamics of "loners" and "connectors" in relationships. Everyone falls into one of these categories. As we explore this topic, my friend and co-host Stephen Cervantes discusses how loners tend to be independent and process internally, while connectors thrive on dialogue and emotional exchange. We examine how these differences impact communication and emotional connection, particularly in marriages. We share insights on personal growth, emphasizing the importance of understanding and appreciating each other's communication styles; we aren't out to change a loner into a connector or vice versa. We give lots of personal anecdotes and practical advice, aiming to help you navigate these differences to foster deeper connections and build stronger, more fulfilling relationships.For daily thoughts from Stephen, visit DoctorMarriage.org.To read the Thought on Loners and Connectors, go to DoctorMarriage.org/loners-and-connectors.Topics Covered in this Episode:Distinction between "loners" and "connectors" in personal relationships.Characteristics of loners: independence, introspection, and internal processing.Characteristics of connectors: relational, expressive, and dialogue-oriented.Impact of communication styles on relationships, particularly in marriage.Importance of emotional connection and its role in relationship dynamics.Challenges faced by loners in engaging with emotional exchanges.The necessity of active listening in fostering trust and connection.Strategies for navigating differences between loners and connectors.The role of personal growth in improving relationship dynamics.Encouragement for couples to discuss and understand their connection styles for deeper intimacy.More Resources:40 Days to Oneness by Stephen CervantesThe 40 Day Relationship Builder* by Stephen CervantesBuilding True Intimacy* by Matthew & Joanna RaabsmithRelated Podcasts:Dealing with Conflict Podcast BundleWorking Through Emotional Disconnection in MarriageAbout Your Emotional Connecting Skills*This is an affiliate link.

On this final Take Flight Weekly episode of 2025, Episode 306, I break down the ten characteristics that consistently show up in the top 10% of ELPs (Elite Level Producers). Success leaves clues. The gap between the 97% and the 3% is real. The gap inside the 3% is even more fascinating. These are the attributes I've seen across different markets, ages, backgrounds, and personality types. In Episode 305, I discussed the Top 10 Things I Learned in 2025. During that time, I was asked: "Jim, tell me what separates that top, top group of advisors from everyone else." So I kept writing. I connected dots from coaching calls, team meetings, and private conversations. What showed up was honest and consistent. The super achievers are not lucky. They're operating from high-performance characteristics that compound naturally. The 10 Characteristics of Super Achievers → 1. Something Drives Them They often cannot pinpoint the origin of their drive. It's not always money. It's deeper. They operate with unconscious competence—the highest stage of mastery. Their execution feels effortless but is built on years of repetition. → 2. They Are Borderline Obsessed with Winning They've learned the fine line between healthy and destructive obsession. They possess a gear most don't have. → 3. They Built a Powerful Network Ninety percent or more of their business is driven by referrals and repeat business inside their Top 100. → 4. They Care Deeply But Struggle with Boundaries Their empathy is a strength but becomes a liability without structure. Finding that boundary line is one of the final steps. → 5.

What's Next This is my final episode of 2025. I'll be back January 5th with an Introduction to Take Flight. Take the remainder of this year and think about your VISION, your goals, and if 2026 is the year you go from the 97% to an ELP or from an ELP to a Super Achiever. In 2026, you'll get my evolved thoughts on building a scalable, enjoyable, and profitable business. Take Flight is "The How." It's the operating system for your goals. Thank you. I'm grateful for you and I'll be back in 2026. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

3/4. Encountering Bennu: Unexpected Terrain and Science — Dante Lauretta — Asteroid Bennu presented surprising geological characteristics, displaying unexpectedly rocky, boulder-strewn terrain rather than the predicted smooth, "beach-like" surface indicated by telescopic observations. Bennu, a dark, compositionally active object, contained abundant carbon, complex organic molecules, and water locked within clay mineral matrices. Lauretta's team developed innovative "bullseye tag" guidance technology to navigate the treacherous and hazardous terrain, successfully executing sample collection using the TAGSAM (Touch And Go Sample Acquisition Mechanism), which yielded an unexpectedly substantial sample mass. 1958

A pedofilia tem sido considerada, pelos discursos sociais, como a ‘mais abjeta' entre as perversões. No discurso médico, é uma patologia e refere-se ao fato de um adulto tomar crianças como objeto sexual. Será a pedofilia um pecado, um crime, uma doença? E como lidar com ela?

Sem ela, o Naruhodo sequer teria sentido de existir. Você nos ajuda demais não só quando ouve, mas também quando espalha episódios para familiares, amigos - e, por que não?, inimigos.A segunda mensagem é: existe uma outra forma de apoiar o Naruhodo, a ciência e o pensamento científico - apoiando financeiramente o nosso projeto de podcast semanal independente, que só descansa no recesso do fim de ano.Manter o Naruhodo tem custos e despesas: servidores, domínio, pesquisa, produção, edição, atendimento, tempo... Enfim, muitas coisas para cobrir - e, algumas delas, em dólar.A gente sabe que nem todo mundo pode apoiar financeiramente. E tá tudo bem. Tente mandar um episódio para alguém que você conhece e acha que vai gostar.A gente sabe que alguns podem, mas não mensalmente. E tá tudo bem também. Você pode apoiar quando puder e cancelar quando quiser. O apoio mínimo é de 15 reais e pode ser feito pela plataforma ORELO ou pela plataforma APOIA-SE. Para quem está fora do Brasil, temos até a plataforma PATREON.É isso, gente. Estamos enfrentando um momento importante e você pode ajudar a combater o negacionismo e manter a chama da ciência acesa. Então, fica aqui o nosso convite: apóie o Naruhodo como puder.bit.ly/naruhodo-no-orelo

My guest today is Martín Escobari. Martín is Co-President and Head of Global Growth Equity at General Atlantic. We talk about General Atlantic's unique founding story and how its long-term structure, including permanent capital, a single P&L, and partnership culture, allows it to invest differently than other growth equity firms. We discuss the firm's global perspective and particularly why the premium on U.S. equities is creating compelling opportunities across international and emerging markets. Martín has spent his career investing through bubbles, market cycles, and technological shifts. He shares his investing framework for balancing intuition with analysis, his approach to “spearfishing” for once-in-a-decade opportunities, and why he believes this is the best window for growth equity since 2009. Martín also reflects on his incredible personal story. He talks about growing up in turbulent Bolivia, and the role of curiosity and optimism in sustaining a long investing career. Martín's infectious energy and genuine love for investing made this conversation both insightful and a lot of fun. Please enjoy my great conversation with Martín Escobari.
