What if the thing you're chasing is the very thing keeping you stuck?In this episode, Laura makes the case that happiness doesn't come from the number on the scale — and that waiting to feel confident, free, and enough until you hit your goal weight is actually the thing sabotaging your results.This is the mindset work underneath the weight loss work. The stuff nobody else is talking about. And it might be the most important episode in this entire series.One of our most downloaded episodes ever. We're bringing it back for summer because this one never gets old. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After a lighthearted debate ranking cups, from the NBA Cup to protective athletic cups, Lima and Daryl Ruiter open the phone lines and take calls squarely blaming Koby Altman's front office decisions rather than LeBron himself. One caller argues LeBron was always chasing Michael Jordan's legacy rather than a title, meaning only a historic championship drought like Philadelphia's 43 years could lure him, not Cleveland's 2016 win. The hosts add their own detail, recalling a golf outing weeks earlier where someone close to Mike Gansey insisted the Philly rumors were dead, even as the deal was quietly coming together.

What if the goal that scares you most is the one that's most worth pursuing? Not because you're guaranteed to achieve it. But because of who you'll become in the process. In this episode, I revisit a concept I've taught for years: impossible goals. The goals that require you to grow beyond your current identity, habits, and comfort zone. Using my decade long journey of writing The Consistency Code as an example, I share why the pursuit of a meaningful goal often matters more than the outcome itself. You don't need certainty. You don't need guarantees. You just need a reason that's bigger than your fear. Ready to go deeper?

Buck Reising and Anita Marks open up the show discussing LeBron James to the 76ers and why he is ring chasing by going to Philadelphia. The 76ers have 3 other All-NBA level players besides James in Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey, and Joel Embiid. They then discuss NFL training camp being here and why we will have the NFL season within 5 weeks. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Daily Boost Podcast You're Part of a Rigged System July 23, 2026 | Episode 5504 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Some days I'm all unicorns and rainbows — let's get out there and make it happen. I love living that way. But it's a short trip from there to grown-up motivation, and today I'm feeling a little feisty. This is personal growth for adults. It's looking at the world for exactly what it is, good and bad and all of it, then deciding to make the best of it. When you finally do that, it's amazing what you can pull off. I cut a little close to the bone today. Press play and let's get real. Featured Story My niece loves AI to death. But she hates data centers, and she's got every reason you'd expect. I'm right there with her — we like clean air, clean water, all of it. Then I asked her a question. You invest in index funds? Oh yeah, she said, we love those. Ever heard of the Magnificent Seven? Uncle Scott, I don't buy tech. I said yes you do. You own it right now. You're profiting off the very thing you hate. She went quiet. Well, I've got to take care of my family. That's cool, I told her. Just be honest about it. Important Points Look at your world for exactly what it is, the good and the bad, then decide to make the best of it and get going. Following your passion won't hand you the money by itself; you need a real, honest plan to earn from what you love. Nothing changes until you move from daydreaming into action, and typing into AI is daydreaming with moving fingers. Memorable Quotes This is grown-up motivation, and once you look at the world for exactly what it is, it's amazing what you can do. If I'll be just as good in ten years as I am today at something, then I don't want to be doing it in ten years. Nothing will happen until you move from daydreaming into action; typing into AI means your fingers are moving. Scott's Three-Step Approach Get honest about your world exactly as it is, stop dressing it up, and admit where you're already part of the game. Then clear real space in your life, for a couple of months, so the brain fog lifts and you can finally hear your calling. Now move that calling into a goal big enough to scare you a little, because that fear means you're on the right track.

We're going back to basics in this week's episode. While Geek Warning is usually for tech-obsessed cyclists, this edition covers the common conversations a bicycle mechanic would have with a client. It's for everyone and anyone who does a little of their own bike maintenance. Many road cyclists are still relatively new to disc brakes, so Jack Duncan and Dave Rome start the episode with a deep dive into many facets of ownership. The basics of chain lube and drivetrain wear are covered later on, as are some thoughts about tyre wear and who tubeless may be right for. After all that, members of Escape Collective get the usual Ask a Wrench segment, this time with the return of a familiar voice. Time stamps:   00:03:45 - The biggest red flag for when something is wrong  00:06:20 - Brakes usually shouldn't squeak or squeal  00:16:00 - Disc brake pad wear  00:20:00 - Pad spacers and travel  00:24:00 - Burning brakes is questionable at best 00:26:15 - The importance of brake bed-in  00:29:20 - Why brakes need scheduled bleeding  00:35:00 - Shifting to chain lube basics 00:43:00 - How a drivetrain wears 00:50:30 - Tubeless is great, but not for everyone  00:57:30 - Don't ignore your front tyre wear  1:05:00 - Ask a Wrench (members-only podcast feed)  1:05:30 - Welcome back to Zach Edwards  1:06:15 - Chasing a forward-offset seatpost  1:14:20 - A weird sound in older AXS front shifting 1:21:45 - Pedals with a top-out knock 

HR leaders spend all day surrounded by people. So why does it often feel like the loneliest job in the building? In this episode, Tom Emery, former Chief People Officer at a top City of London wealth manager, 20-year corporate HR veteran (ex-HSBC), and founder of HEX Talent & Development, joins Al and Leanne to pull back the curtain on the reality of HR leadership. Tom shares his powerful "Vet Analogy" for HR: just like veterinarians enter the profession out of love for animals only to see them at their illest, weakest, or most aggressive, HR leaders enter the role because they love people, only to be brought in when people are backed into a corner. Together, they dive deep into how HR leaders can step out of the isolated "police officer" role and step into the room as true strategic drivers, how senior leaders can build psychological safety by simply asking for help, and why learning to disagree well is the missing ingredient in high-performing C-suites.

This week Chris sits down with Jonathan Glick, founder of Incucap and one of the most active fund placement agents in the country. Over his career he's helped place more than $10 billion into real estate funds, and he says raising one has never been harder than it is right now. There are 600 to 1,000 funds chasing a shrinking pool of capital, real estate has lost a decade of ground to private credit, private equity and everything else, and most managers now spend two years raising a single fund. So his advice to almost everyone who calls wanting to start one is simple. Don't. They talk about who he'd actually back out of the 300-plus managers he meets a year, why he says most funds run in the red until their third or fourth one, and how the whole business has slid into a fee game, which changes the incentives dramatically. They get into where he thinks we are in the 18-year real estate cycle, why he believes vacancy is temporary and basis is forever, and the case that the next few years are the best time in over a decade to leave a big firm and build your own platform.

How Seven-Figure Founders Generate Revenue Without New Leads There's money sitting inside the business you've already built, and you've stopped seeing it because you're busy chasing the next thing. So I asked a room of seven-figure founders at a recent Milly Club event one question: if you couldn't get a single new lead for the next 90 days, could you still generate revenue? Hands flew up before I finished asking. One founder realized that trimming her churn by two percentage points was worth an extra $10,000 a month, all from members already paying her. Another ran the math on her funnel and found $100,000 a year sitting in a conversion rate she'd never mapped, with no new traffic. I'm walking you through five places to look in your own business this week, starting with the buyers who already trust you and pulled out a credit card once. By the end you'll know which numbers to pull up before you spend another dollar getting found. RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Find the one thing dragging down your conversions, and the exact fix to turn this month around, in about 45 minutes. The Offer Conversion Scorecard is $27. Click here to grab it. Revenue highs are exciting. The unexplainable dips that follow? Not so much. If you're a multi-six-figure female founder running a coaching, course, or membership business, you're clearly doing something right. The catch is you can't pinpoint what, so your best months feel like luck instead of something you can repeat on purpose.

Beau Martonik sits down with his dad, Joe Martonik, for episode 500, a milestone, listener-requested conversation that's been a long time coming. Joe's been hunting Pennsylvania whitetails for almost 50 years, watched deer densities crash and slowly rebuild, and built a lifetime of lessons most hunters never get from a single season.

Chasing performance feels like the easiest way to make money—but buying what has already gone up often means arriving late and leaving with less.In this episode of Talking Real Money, Tom and Don examine the “behavior gap”: the difference between an investment's return and what investors actually earn after buying high, selling low, and chasing the latest market story. They explain why disciplined diversification and a sensible asset allocation usually beat a portfolio built around hot ideas.They also answer listener questions about retirement withdrawal order, Roth conversions, reinsurance funds, high investment costs, and whether financial recommendations are influenced by commissions.00:20 Why buying what's hot usually means arriving late01:42 Chasing performance without ever catching it03:03 How Bitcoin rose while Bitcoin ETF investors lost money04:58 The costly confusion between “has gone up” and “is going up”05:53 Morningstar's “Mind the Gap” research06:44 AI, chips, and the latest performance-chasing cycle07:37 Asset allocation versus a collection of hot ideas09:21 Why trying to beat the market often backfires10:16 Listener Question: Retirement accounts and withdrawal order12:29 Taxable, pre-tax, or Roth—which money should come first?15:35 Listener Question: Do reinsurance funds belong in a portfolio?16:58 Catastrophe risk, complexity, and nearly 2% in expenses21:33 Listener Question: Are fund recommendations influenced by compensation?23:27 Why “trust us” isn't a convincing financial argumentQuestions?

Are your sleep trackers helping you sleep better? Or making you more anxious about your sleep? In this episode, we welcome back sleep expert Mollie Eastman, founder of Sleep Is A Skill, to explore how chasing the perfect sleep score can actually undermine restorative sleep, while sharing practical strategies for improving sleep through mindset shifts, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and smart use of wearable data. Mollie also discusses overcoming the "First Night Effect" while traveling, when to consider at-home sleep studies, and the foundational tests that matter most before investing in advanced biohacks. Finally, she shares her personal experience with psychedelic-assisted therapy at Beckley Retreats, revealing how addressing suppressed emotions and unresolved stress transformed both her sleep and overall well-being.Mollie Eastman is the creator of Sleep Is A Skill and the host of The Sleep Is A Skill Podcast. Sleep Is A Skill is a company that optimizes people's sleep through a unique blend of technology, accountability, and behavioral change. After navigating insomnia while traveling internationally, she created what she couldn't find - a place to go to learn the skill set of sleep. With a background in behavioral change from The Nonverbal Group, she became fascinated with chronobiology and its practical application to sleep and our overall experience of life. Knowing the difference between a life with sleep and without, she's now dedicated her life to sharing the forgotten skill set of sleep. In the spirit of that goal, she has created the #2 sleep podcast, where she has interviewed over 200 sleep experts, written a popular weekly sleep newsletter for over six years, partnered with luxury hotels & lifestyle brands, coached the world's top poker players, and has appeared on over 175 podcasts.SHOW NOTES:0:39 Welcome to the podcast!2:16 About Mollie Eastman3:19 Welcome her back to the show!4:48 Are wearables helping or harming?7:04 Placebo-Nocebo effect11:25 Getting relief from sleep data14:00 The ‘mindset' undermining sleep16:13 Acceptance & Commitment Theory (ACT) for Insomnia18:38 Using biohacks for “First Night Effect”25:05 Sleep disorders & at-home sleep studies32:14 Auditing sleep data36:13 Baseline tests to start with39:51 Her latest discovery on sleep support40:55 Beckley Retreats48:47 The benefits of psychedelics on her sleep54:24 The impact of suppressing emotions58:57 Where to find herRESOURCES:Website: Sleep Is a SkillSleep Obsessions' Monday Newsletter8-Week Wearable Group “Optimize Your Sleep” ProgramSleep Is A Skill PodcastLinkedInIG: @mollie.eastmanSleep Tests:SleepDoctor.comSleep Image RingHappy RingSleep Doctor Watch PAT - WatchPATOnera Sleep StudySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

If you've researched whole life insurance for Infinite Banking, you've probably seen whole life insurance dividend rates advertised. 5.76%. 6.5%. And you've probably wondered: is higher better, and how do I compare policies using this number? Here's the answer, stated plainly: a higher dividend rate does not mean a better policy. Chasing it, without understanding the bigger picture, leads people to make poor decisions about which policy to choose. That instinct to find one comparable number isn't foolish. But the dividend rate is one of the most misunderstood figures in whole life insurance, and treating it as the answer skips past everything that actually determines how a policy performs. https://youtu.be/JSVn8bnHy1g This isn't an argument that dividends don't matter. They do, and you want them. It's an argument that the rate by itself is one data point in a much bigger picture, and using it as your primary basis for comparison will mislead you. Time to peel back the layers and look at what's really going on underneath that number. The core ideas:Base Premium Versus Paid-Up AdditionsParticipating Versus Non-ParticipatingDirect Recognition Versus Non-Direct RecognitionDoes a higher dividend rate mean a better whole life insurance policy?What does a whole life insurance dividend rate actually tell you?Are whole life insurance dividends guaranteed?Are whole life insurance dividends taxable?Why doesn't a 6% dividend rate mean my cash value grows 6%?What is a participating whole life insurance policy?How should I actually compare whole life insurance companies? The core ideas: A 6% dividend rate does not mean your cash value grows 6% that year There's no industry standard for how dividends are calculated or reported, so comparing rates across companies isn't apples-to-apples Policy design (how much goes to base premium versus paid-up additions) affects dividend crediting more than the rate itself A 10 to 15-year dividend history tells you more than this year's number Direct recognition versus non-direct recognition makes illustrated comparisons unreliable The real comparison criteria: financial strength, dividend history, company friendliness toward policy loans, and your own funding behavior What a Whole Life Insurance Dividend Actually Is A stock dividend is a board of directors deciding to distribute company profit per share. A whole life insurance dividend from a mutual company is classified as a return of premium instead, which is also why it isn't taxable. Mutual companies price policies conservatively, especially around mortality cost, the biggest expense they can't fully control. When actual experience comes in better than projected, the surplus gets returned to policyholders as a dividend. The "they're just giving your money back" objection misses something. If you paid a million in cumulative premiums over forty years and end up with two million in cash value, that's growth that was conservatively deferred, not a refund. In some years, the dividend paid can exceed that year's entire premium. For a fuller breakdown of how dividends are calculated, taxed, and what your options are for using them, we have a dedicated dividends article worth reading, along with a closer look at what dividends are and aren't. The rest of this piece focuses specifically on the rate itself and why it's so often misread. Why a 6% Dividend Rate Doesn't Mean Your Cash Value Grows 6% Here's the single most damaging misconception in this conversation. Social media commentary loves the math of "6% dividend minus your loan rate equals your spread." That math is wrong, because the declared rate and your actual crediting aren't the same thing. The declared rate is largely a gross figure applied across the whole pool of policyholders. What reaches your individual contract is net of mortality costs and other expenses, and depends heavily on your age and where you sit in the life of the policy. You can think of it this way: the cash value is chasing the death benefit. Actuarially, a policy's cash value has to rise enough to equal the death benefit by around age 121. A 70-year-old has far less time left to compound toward that than a 10-year-old, so their cash value has to climb proportionally more, even under the exact same declared rate. That's also why two people holding the same company's policy, with the same declared rate, see different increases in their own cash value. The rate is an input into a calculation, not the outcome of one. Erase "dividend rate equals my growth rate" from how you think about this. The better question is: what's actually driving my policy's performance? The Two Sides of Your Illustration: Guaranteed and Non-Guaranteed Every whole life policy grows through two combined mechanisms: guaranteed interest and non-guaranteed dividends. An illustration shows both sides separately. The guaranteed side shows zero dividends, the contractual minimum the company is obligated to deliver regardless of performance.  The non-guaranteed side shows what happens if today's declared dividend rate continues unchanged every year, reinvested into paid-up additions. That's a big assumption stacked on another. A projection showing a large cash value at age 92 isn't a prediction; it's what today's number would produce if nothing about it ever changed, which it will. Dividend rates move in line with the company's actual performance over time. The number on page one of an illustration is a snapshot, not a forecast. There's a meaningful upside, though. Once a dividend is actually declared and paid, it locks in. It becomes part of the guaranteed side of your contract and is never removed, even if future rates decline. This is exactly why comparing two illustrations on dividend rate alone falls apart. Two different companies can show the identical declared rate and still project completely different cash values twenty or thirty years out, because the rate gets applied differently depending on contract design, your age, and the specific year. The rate isn't the variable that explains the gap. Design is. Why Policy Design Drives Performance More Than the Dividend Rate This is the part that surprises most people, and it's worth slowing down for. Base Premium Versus Paid-Up Additions Dividend crediting isn't applied evenly across every dollar in your policy. The base policy receives a noticeably larger proportion of dividend crediting than paid-up additions, or PUAs, do, and there's a clear mechanical reason why. The company knows your base premium will be funded for the life of the contract, one way or another. Because of that certainty, they spread the base policy's mortality cost across the entire contract term and attach a proportionally larger death benefit to it.  A bigger death benefit means more cash value has to "chase" it, which translates into a bigger dividend on that portion of the policy. PUAs work differently. They're optional, purchased year by year, priced at one-year-renewable-term cost in the year you buy them. A PUA purchased at 40 buys substantially more death benefit than the same dollar amount purchased at 60, sometimes around 10 times the premium early on, versus closer to 1.5 times later in the contract. Less death benefit to chase means a smaller dividend. Some carriers make this visible. Lafayette Life, mentioned here only as an illustrative example, breaks out the base-versus-PUA dividend split on annual statements. Early in a policy, around 90% of the total dividend commonly flows to the base. The practical takeaway: if dividend capture is what you're optimizing for, the proportion of base premium in your policy design predicts performance far better than the headline rate ever will. One caution, though. It's not as simple as "always maximize base." Higher PUA funding lowers a policy's overall mortality cost too, which also lifts crediting elsewhere. Design involves real trade-offs, not a single lever to max out. And beyond design entirely, the biggest variable left is you. How consistently you fund the policy and how you use it over decades shapes performance more than any number on an illustration. What Actually Drives Whole Life Insurance Dividend Rates The real engine behind a dividend rate is company performance: actual mortality experience and expenses compared against what the company projected. Beat the projections, and there's more surplus to return. That's why a ten to fifteen-year look-back at a company's dividend history tells you more than this year's headline figure. A company whose dividends trended steadily or upward through real downturns is showing fiscal discipline likely to continue. A company judged on a single year's number gives you very little to go on. Recent history offers a case study here. The COVID years were a real-world blip: some carriers had loosened underwriting standards to bring in more premium volume, leaving them exposed to higher mortality costs when conditions shifted. Others held tight, conservative underwriting the whole way through.  That frustrates some applicants in the short term, but it lets those companies forecast their future dividend capacity with far more confidence. The next time two companies are separated by a tenth of a percentage point this year, recognize that comparison for what it is: short-range thinking applied to a long-range product. Participating Policies and the Recognition Question Two structural distinctions decide whether dividends exist at all for a given policy, and whether comparing rates across companies even makes sense in the first place. Participating Versus Non-Participating Only participating policies are eligible for dividends. The company's charter spells out that policyholders share in profits. A non-participating policy still carries guaranteed interest,...

Instead of interviewing a guest, Travis is joined in the studio by producer Eric for a conversation about what entrepreneurs can learn from an unexpected source: the movie industry. Using the success of low-budget horror films, bootstrapped startups, and high-profile business failures as examples, they explore why constraints often produce better products than unlimited funding. From startup fundraising to filmmaking, this episode is packed with practical lessons on building sustainable businesses that prioritize profitability over hype. On this episode we talk about: Why low-budget films often outperform massive Hollywood productions The business lessons entrepreneurs can learn from successful movie franchises Why bootstrapping can be a better path than raising venture capital The hidden costs of giving investors control over your company How companies like Quibi illustrate the dangers of overfunding and overspending Top 3 Takeaways Constraints encourage creativity. Whether you're building a business or making a movie, working within a budget often leads to better decisions and stronger products. Raising money isn't the finish line. Venture capital is a tool—not a measure of success—and founders should validate their business before seeking outside investment whenever possible. Focus on profitability instead of perfection. Launch early, iterate based on customer feedback, and avoid overinvesting in features or polish that don't generate meaningful returns. Notable Quotes "If you're not embarrassed by the first version of your product, then you've launched too late." "The number one rule we have is just don't go over budget. Play within the sandbox, but stay in the sandbox." "Money only solves your money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems with money in the bank."

Two years ago I sat down with Ben Lindbergh — co-host of Effectively Wild, co-author of “The MVP Machine” — to talk through the player development revolution remaking baseball. I'm re-airing it with a new intro. The reason: two years later, baseball is still chasing the same answers, and still hasn't solved the same problems. We get into: • Why pitching always stays a step ahead of hitting • How chasing every edge turned the whole league into the same team • Whether the rule changes were ever going to work • Ben's fix: cap the pitchers on the roster, make guys pace themselves, and you get back deeper starts, more contact, fewer blown-out arms A few references are frozen in 2023 — Hosmer getting DFA'd, Morel being all the vibes. Enjoy the time capsule. The heart of it plays sharper now than the day we taped it. The thread to hold onto: every adaptation has a price — what it costs a player, and maybe the game itself, to become something different than it used to be. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the Predator Pros podcast, I sit down with Garrett Kissack of Gillette, Wyoming, to talk about where it all started – from chasing coyotes at a young age to developing a passion for hunting with dogs, guiding big game hunts, and eventually building a career with the State of Wyoming as a predator control specialist. Garrett shares stories from the field, the experiences that shaped him, and what it's like making a living managing predators. It was a great conversation, and who knows… you might even learn something along the way. I think you're really going to enjoy this one.

You're putting in the work at the gym, eating what you think is enough, and still not seeing the body you're training for. Sound familiar? In this episode of Mind Pump Show, Sal, Adam, and Justin break down the six most common mistakes women make when they start lifting — pulled straight from over two decades of training real clients, not from theory. These mistakes are still showing up everywhere, and they're the exact reason your strength training isn't delivering the results you were promised. From stacking too much cardio on top of your lifting sessions to underestimating how much weight your lower body can actually handle, the guys walk through every mistake with the kind of blunt, experience-tested clarity you only get from coaches who've seen it all. The biggest surprise? A full 60% of the time when a woman calls in saying she's not seeing results, the fix is simply to eat more. Your body cannot build what you refuse to feed it. They also make the case for ditching the scale entirely as your primary progress metric, and explain why strength, not body composition scans, is the single most reliable indicator that your training is working. If you've been chasing the scale while your PRs sit flat, this episode will completely reframe how you measure success. Plus, Adam shares exactly what happened when he started training Corinne with proper rest periods and a calorie surplus, and the PRs she started hitting speak for themselves. In this episode: • Cardio and strength training compete for the same adaptive resources: doing too much of both simultaneously means you get less of each, and the fix is often as simple as removing the cardio entirely and watching the muscle finally come. • Women chronically underestimate how much they can lift, especially in lower body movements like squats, hip thrusts, and deadlifts, where female clients often match or exceed male clients' numbers once coached to load properly. • Singles, doubles, and triples (1 to 3 rep sets) are not about hypertrophy directly but about recalibrating how much weight a lifter should actually be using for their working sets of 5 reps. • Roughly 60% of the time a female caller asks why she isn't seeing results, the answer is undereating: bumping calories by 600 to 700 per day consistently produces leaner, stronger bodies within 60 to 90 days. • Programming specifics, including exercise selection, order, sets, reps, and how the week and month are structured, can dramatically alter progress, and following a well-designed program from a credible strength background almost always outperforms winging favorite exercises. • Progressive strength gain is the most objective and reliable proxy for muscle growth: adding weight to the bar removes all the noise of lighting, bloat, and daily mirror perception, giving you an undeniable directional signal. • Three to five minute rest periods between heavy compound sets feel like 'not working out' but produce consistent week-over-week strength gains that shorter rest periods simply cannot, because you return to each set fully recovered and able to apply maximum effort. • The scale frequently goes UP in the early stages of correct strength training as muscle is built before fat comes off, making body composition testing a far better metric than body weight, and even then, at least two tests are needed to identify a real trend.

Paul Holes begins the story in 1970s Visalia, California, when the Golden State Killer was just beginning to make a name for himself. Before the East Area Rapist, before the Original Night Stalker, there was the Visalia Ransacker, a prolific offender breaking into homes and leaving fear behind. Paul walks Yeardley, Dan, and Dave through the early crimes, the killing of Claude Snelling, the shooting of Officer McGowan, and the case files that first pulled Paul into what would become a career-defining 24-year pursuit.
