Pepper settles back in with her friends... more or less, and the gang is made an offer. Or two!

We talk about taking care of yourself FIRST. We talk about how being healthy is a balancing act. We talk about treating yourself but also not skipping your workouts. We talk about putting yourself first and doing things you enjoy. We talk about how you shouldn't need to take a break from your "diet". We talk about getting better every day.

In this episode, Dr. Scott Watier tackles the difference between outsourcing a chore and avoiding a skill, arguing that the path of least resistance isn't always the wrong move — it just depends on what you're making easier. He introduces the "habit bank" concept, where every convenience is either a deposit that protects consistency (grocery delivery, repeated meals, a fixed fasting window) or a withdrawal that derails it (impulse snacking, the "I'll start Monday" reset), and uses his own reliance on Instacart and meal-prep shortcuts to show how automating logistics frees up energy for what actually matters. He draws a clear line between the chores worth systematizing without guilt — meal planning, grocery shopping, tracking tools, workout scheduling — and the skills that require real repetition, like sitting with a craving for 10-15 minutes instead of solving it, breaking a fast on purpose instead of on impulse, feeling an emotion without eating over it, and logging an honest, unflattering result. Scott cites research showing people make roughly 214 food-related decisions a day (more for those with higher BMI), framing the fasting lifestyle as a game of "keepy uppy" where the constant question is simply: am I outsourcing a chore, or am I avoiding a skill? The episode closes with two action steps — pick one chore to eliminate this week and one specific skill-building moment to identify and sit with, rather than trying to overhaul everything at once.

A startup investment can look successful long before it produces spendable cash. Adam Spector has backed more than 200 early-stage companies, and he is reducing how much of his own portfolio he wants in that world.Adam is a four-time founder and the Founder & CEO of Chore, which supports startups with back-office operations. He also hosts Entrepreneurial Excellence. His perspective combines building companies, investing alongside founders, and waiting to learn what those investments are actually worth.Sam and Adam examine a secondary sale that Adam says repaid an entire fund, the long silence that followed, and the limits of treating a strong founder network as an investing advantage. They discuss his move toward later-stage opportunities and public equities, while separating his personal choices from a universal allocation formula. The second half turns to a different balance sheet: the time, stress, and family tradeoffs that can disappear inside the pursuit of a bigger net worth.In this conversation:Why Adam regrets shutting down his first companyHow an acquisition can benefit founders and investors differentlyHow his first syndicate pooled smaller checksWhy distributions matter alongside paper valuationsHow a secondary sale repaid one fund in Adam's accountWhy investor communication changes the ownership experienceWhy he is reducing his personal early-stage allocationHow he approaches later-stage SPVs and trusted introductionsWhy business expertise does not automatically transfer to investingHow frugality can become difficult to turn offWhere spending buys useful time and reduces household frictionHow Sam and Adam weigh ambition against personal financial stressTopics covered: angel investing, startup secondaries, liquidity, venture capital, SPVs, public equities, founder finances, opportunity cost, time, sustainable entrepreneurshipGuest: Adam Spector, Founder & CEO of ChoreChore: https://www.hirechore.com/Adam on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamspector2/Newsletter: https://www.mechanicsofmoney.coWebsite: https://silvermancapital.comSubscribe to Mechanics of Money for weekly conversations on private markets, alternative investments, and the decisions behind building and using wealth.#angelinvesting #venturecapital #startupinvesting #founderfinances #capitalallocation #entrepreneurship #mechanicsofmoney

Has your spark disappeared—or are you just bored? Because apparently, ladies, those are not the same thing. And if intimacy has started feeling suspiciously like one more item on the to-do list, Pamela Madsen has some thoughts. Very candid thoughts. In this lively, occasionally blush-worthy conversation with host Dr. mOe Anderson, sexual wellness educator, author of Shameless, and Back to the Body founder Pamela Madsen challenges some of the assumptions women carry about desire, aging, hormones, relationships, and what it means to feel fully alive in your body. Pamela argues that erotic energy is bigger than what happens behind closed doors—it can be a source of vitality, creativity, confidence, and connection. She also explains why women may lose interest in intimacy even when they still love their partners, and her answer is refreshingly uncomplicated: sometimes, we're bored. The conversation gets especially interesting when Dr. mOe asks what happens when you adore your partner…but their bedroom skills could use a little continuing education. They also explore menopause as a potential turning point rather than a closing chapter, how women can reconnect with themselves before expecting a partner to reignite the flame, and why Pamela believes immersive sexual wellness retreats can help women move from simply having an experience to creating lasting change. This episode is funny, frank, grown, and definitely different from your typical Perpetual mOetion conversation. But underneath the laughter is an important message for women at every age: desire doesn't come with an expiration date. Two Quotes to Remember “You can't think your way back into desire. It's a felt feeling.” — Pamela Madsen “The biological clock is finite. The erotic clock is infinite.” — Pamela Madsen In This Episode, You'll Hear: Why Pamela views erotic energy as life energy, not simply bedroom energy The relationship between hormones, aging, physical changes, and desire Why boredom can quietly undermine intimacy in long-term relationships How women can communicate what feels good without turning the conversation into criticism Why reconnecting with a partner may need to begin with reconnecting with yourself How menopause, midlife, and aging can become an opportunity to rediscover pleasure, curiosity, and confidence Learn More About Pamela Madsen Explore Pamela's retreats, programs, resources, and work with women at BacktotheBody.org.

Somewhere along the way, faith can quietly turn into a routine. You still show up, still serve, still do the right things, but the love that started it all has gone cold, and you are not sure when that happened. That is exactly what Jesus addresses in the first four of his seven letters in Revelation 2, written to the churches in Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, and Thyatira. To Ephesus he says something startling: you have forsaken the love you had at first (Revelation 2:4). Not lost it. Forsook it. To Smyrna, a church facing real poverty and violent persecution under Rome, he offers no correction at all, only the promise of the crown of life (Revelation 2:10, James 1:12). To Pergamum, where compromise had crept inside the walls, he comes with the double-edged sword of his own Word (Revelation 2:12, Hebrews 4:12). This message walks through what perseverance actually means, not gritting your teeth through suffering, but remaining under it long enough for it to produce dependence, strength, and faith (2 Corinthians 12:9). If your faith feels more like duty than love right now, or you are carrying pressure you never asked for, this one is for you.

Derek Guy and Peter Zottolo return for the third installment of their quarterly AMA series, generously sponsored by our friends at Bezel. This time, they go deep on fabric: navy sport coats, green double-breasted suits, the five tweeds they would choose from scratch, and the right cloth for a balmacaan. They also revisit bespoke mistakes, the tailors still on their wish lists, shoes for serious walking, the difference between personal style and costume, and what actually reads from across the room. Plus: date-night clothes without tailoring, keeping pet hair off your wardrobe, finding occasions to wear the clothes you already own, the appeal of authentic workwear, their favorite versions of menswear staples, and why the person you imagine in the mirror may not be the person everyone else sees. They close by designing the elusive middle-ground jacket—dressier than a chore coat, easier than a sport coat, and made for the romantic life of a writer. * Sponsored by Bezel - the trusted marketplace for buying, selling, or insuring your next luxury watch ** Fabric Recommendations Navy Sport Coat Derek's Picks: Holland & Sherry Mesh & Hopsack Blazers Huddersfield or Smiths Mock Leno Harrison Spring Ram stitched hopsack Holland & Sherry cashmere doeskin Hainsworth doeskin Fox serge Peter's Picks: Hopsack or similar Spring Ram 16oz for fall/winter or Finmeresco 12oz for summer, I have experience with Moorhouse and while it's much softer it's too prone to fraying Green double-breasted suit in the South Derek's Picks: Harrisons Spring Ram Huddersfield Fine Worsted Super Gaberdine Peter's Picks: Spring Ram 12oz if you can stand it, or Isca 8oz if you can't.

Consistency is one of the biggest differentiators between agents who talk about prospecting and agents who actually build a business from it. In this episode of the REDX Podcast, Tyler Fenn sits down with Kent Brown, a licensed real estate agent, REDX team member, and Listing Academy trainer, to break down what it really takes to make prospecting a consistent part of a real estate business. Kent shares lessons from years of prospecting and explains why success isn't about finding a secret script or waiting for motivation; it's about making the calls, tracking the numbers, and staying committed to the process.Kent and Tyler dive deep into Kent's experience making tens of thousands of prospecting calls, including a 100,000-call challenge that he ultimately stopped after 53 days because the volume of leads and resulting business became difficult to manage alongside the challenge. They discuss how roughly 50,000 calls produced around 4,800 conversations and nearly 200 hot leads, as well as how Kent has generated more than $300,000 in commissions from those calls. The conversation also explores why agents should give prospecting enough time to produce meaningful data, why "data removes emotion," and how accountability can turn motivation into discipline. Kent explains his approach to expired listings, the importance of tracking activity over several months, and why doing the work long enough is essential before deciding whether a prospecting strategy works.Here's What You'll Discover in This Episode...• Why consistency matters more than motivation when building a prospecting business• How Kent's 50,000-call experience generated thousands of conversations and nearly 200 hot leads• What Kent learned from attempting a 100,000-call challenge in 100 days• Why tracking your numbers can remove emotion from the prospecting process• How accountability helps transform motivation into daily discipline• Why agents should give a prospecting strategy several months before judging its effectiveness• What makes expired listings a predictable prospecting opportunity when you understand the homeowner's mindset• How consistent calling can create a pipeline that continues producing opportunities over time• Why doing more and doing it long enough can be more valuable than overanalyzing every strategy• How Listing Academy teaches Kent's expired prospecting system from start to finishJUMP TO THESE TOPICS00:00 –

Welcome back to Transmissions with Jason P. Woodbury. This week on the show, another talk that spun out of our Big Ears hang out, a conversation with a journeyman musician Fred Thomas. Even if you don't know Thomas' name, you've heard him: In the ‘90s, he was responsible for the math rock band Chore; from there, he joined up with Warren Defever's genre bending indie rock outfit His Name Is Alive, alongside groups like Lovesick and his own band Saturday Looks Good To Me, who melded Detroit R&B and soul to twee indie pop.  Thomas has stayed busy too: in addition to his solo albums and archival projects from Saturday Looks Good to Me—more on that in this talk—he's a member of Winged Wheel, alongside Steve Shelley of Sonic Youth, who are responsible for one of our favorite albums of 2026, Desert So Green. And you may have seen him as a guest musician with Detroit post-punks Protomartyr ahead of the release of their new album, Hotel Usona, out September 25th on Domino Records. And then there's Idle Ray, Mighty Clouds, and so many more projects. In addition to all that, Thomas is also a prolific writer about music, namely for the Allmusic guide. All this makes him an ideal guest for Transmissions—an artist who isn't hemmed in by any single genre. We spoke with Thomas out at Big Ears in Knoxville—and as was the case with last week's Dust-to-Digital episode, we reconvened after Big Ears to tape a proper chat. Transmissions editor Andrew Horton joins in as co-host for this one, as he has unique insight into Thomas' electronic efforts: Horton released one of Thomas' many projects, All Energy Must Continue Upward, on his great label, Good Glass Records.  From pre-fame adventures with Andrew WK to his work as a music writer, from Ethio-jazz to house music, this conversation runs a wide game. So here it is, presented this week on Aquarium Drunkard Transmissions, produced in collaboration with the Talkhouse Podcast Network.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It started with the Palantir chore coat. Then it was the Anthropic "thinking cap." Now, OpenAI has its own regular merch drops through its apparel arm, Supply Co. Over the last year, big tech and AI companies have started to get into the fashion game, releasing streetwear-inspired drops, hiring people into roles like "head of vibes" and opening pop-up shops to show off their merch. The reaction has been split. Many in the fashion community have lambasted these releases, calling them inauthentic and using fashion as a means of reputation laundering. Many of the companies involved, particularly Palantir, have been widely criticized for reasons including their environmental impact, unethical data acquisition models or contributions to mass surveillance. Highsnobiety style writer Chris Erik Thomas joined the Glossy Podcast this week to discuss why these companies are entering the fashion game and why the reaction from streetwear communities has been so negative.

When sex starts feeling like one more thing on the to do list, it is easy to assume something is wrong with your relationship. But often, what is happening in the bedroom has a lot more to do with what is happening outside of it. In this episode, I sit down with marriage coaches and Marriage365 founders Meygan and Casey Caston for an honest conversation about intimacy in marriage, sex, resentment, mismatched desire, and why couples need to actually talk about the things they would rather avoid. For stepmoms, this conversation hits especially close to home. Blended family life can come with stress, complicated schedules, parenting conflict, emotional exhaustion, and resentment that slowly chips away at connection between partners. Meygan and Casey share practical ways couples can rebuild trust and intimacy, including why scheduling sex might actually help your relationship instead of hurting the romance. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why intimacy in marriage starts with trust, not sex • How resentment outside the bedroom can affect connection inside it • Why scheduling sex can actually create more anticipation and intimacy • How couples with mismatched sex drives can stop keeping score and start communicating They also break down their four Fs of a healthy sex life: foreplay, frequency, feelings, and fun, and share a simple way to start a conversation about sex with your partner without making it awkward or confrontational. If intimacy has started getting pushed to the bottom of the list, this episode is a reminder that connection rarely happens because you magically find the time. Sometimes you have to intentionally make it. Resources Mentioned Check out Marriage365.com The Marriage Habit by Meygan and Casey Caston Ready to feel less alone in your stepfamily journey?

Dan Sullivan used to write books the hard way: long, lonely hours at the keyboard. In this episode, he explains the small‑book production system he created in 2014—focused ideas, a repeatable structure, and an editorial team that lets him produce a new book every quarter—and shows how entrepreneurs can adopt the same approach. Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:What first got Dan writing books over 30 years ago.The commitment he made at 70 to write a different kind of book every quarter.Why his new book project stalled just four weeks in.Who the books are for and how they're meant to be used.How Dan selects each quarter's book topic. Show Notes: You can choose to write only about ideas your clients have already paid you for and that are proven in the marketplace. Long-term creative goals, like a book every quarter for 25 years, keep you active, productive, and future-focused. Advertising taught Dan to write succinctly by getting a complete message across in just a few seconds or inches of space. Strategic Coach® books are written specifically for Program members and for their associates who may want to join. Every quarterly book follows the same structure, with eight chapters, an introduction, a conclusion, and a consistent layout. Short, focused books can reveal which ideas deserve to become bigger, mass market books. Writing a book entirely on your own is often slow, lonely work that doesn't suit most entrepreneurs. If you maintain your health, you can keep doing meaningful creative work for your entire lifetime. When a company pays you to advise its people, your recommendations can be constrained by the organization's agenda. Most entrepreneurs get better results by collaborating with an interviewer or editor who can draw out their ideas. When you're stuck on a project, asking a capable team member to take over the “How” can instantly create momentum. Resources:The 21st Century Agent by Dan Sullivan The Entrepreneur's Guide To Time Management Wanting What You Want by Dan SullivanThe Impact Filter® Who Not How by Dan Sullivan with Dr. Benjamin Hardy

Your relationship can look stable, respectful, even loving and still leave you feeling alone. That kind of loneliness is hard to explain because nothing is “wrong” in an obvious way, yet something essential is missing. I'm Dr. Dar Hawks, and I'm naming the gap many women quietly carry: the difference between what gets done in a relationship and what you need to feel to experience real closeness.We walk through the core idea that practical needs and emotional needs are not the same. You can have the bills paid, the calendar managed, and a partner who does his part and still crave emotional intimacy. From there, I lay out five emotional needs I see underneath almost every story: love and belonging, freedom, fun, inner power, and safety and survival. As you listen, you'll be able to pinpoint which need feels most “starved” right now and why that longing doesn't make you needy, dramatic, or too much.We also talk about why emotional needs go unanswered even when there's real love: how life crowds out connection, how conversations turn into logistics, and how many of us were taught to keep the peace by putting our own needs last. The turning point is learning to treat loneliness as information, not a personal failing and giving yourself permission to stop pretending you don't feel what you feel. If you're ready to name what you actually need, take the free relationship needs quiz at needs.drdarhawks.com or book a one-on-one conversation with me at session.drdarhawks.com. If this helped you in any way, please subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find this support.Send us Fan Mail Support the showIf you found your way here, something probably brought you.

You know the things that would probably help.The walk.The boundary.The therapy session.The earlier bedtime.The journal sitting untouched on your nightstand.So why does it feel so hard to actually do them?If you've ever found yourself reaching for your phone instead of your healing, texting your ex when you knew better, pouring another glass of wine, avoiding the hard conversation, or putting off the very thing that might help you feel better... this episode is for you.In this conversation, Dawn explores the frustrating paradox so many women face after divorce: wanting to heal while simultaneously resisting the very things that support healing.You'll learn why your nervous system often chooses familiar pain over unfamiliar growth, how childhood conditioning can make healthy choices feel surprisingly uncomfortable, and why this struggle has far less to do with willpower than you've been led to believe.Most importantly, you'll walk away with a simple, practical tool to help you start choosing yourself—even when it feels hard.Because healing isn't about being perfect.It's about learning to recognize the moments when you're standing at a crossroads between temporary relief and lasting change.And choosing yourself, one small decision at a time.In This Episode:Why healing often feels harder than staying stuckThe post-divorce paradox nobody talks aboutHow your nervous system confuses familiar pain with safetyThe childhood patterns that may still be driving your choicesWhy self-care can feel uncomfortable at firstA simple exercise to help you stop abandoning yourself in real timeIf you've been wondering why you can't seem to follow through on the things you know would help, this episode might give you the answer you've been looking for.Support the show✨Join the Cocoon Community - your people are waiting! ✨

EP:200 Is intimacy in your relationship feeling more like another item on your to-do list than a meaningful connection? Hi friends, This week, we're talking about something that so many couples experience—but very few people are willing to say out loud. Over the years, I've noticed a common pattern with the parents and couples I work with: they're disconnected from intimacy. Sex starts to feel like an obligation instead of a place where both partners feel seen, safe, connected, and alive. And here's what I want you to know... That isn't how intimacy is supposed to feel. True intimacy isn't about checking a box or meeting someone else's expectations. It's about emotional safety, nervous system regulation, trust, vulnerability, and mutual pleasure. It's about creating a space where both people feel valued—not where one person silently sacrifices their own needs. If you've ever...

Adam Spector's path has never been conventional, from leaving DC for boarding school to pivoting from law school into tech and startups. Now Founder & CEO of Chore, he shares how building companies, learning from early startup failures, and obsessing over AI shaped his belief that founders should rethink hiring entirely.

What do you do when you're losing hope in your marriage/a relationship?Not because you don't love your spouse. Not because you're giving up. But because the same painful patterns keep repeating, and you're exhausted waiting for change.In this episode, we talk about why many of us misunderstand biblical hope, especially in relationships. We often treat hope like optimism, instant relief, or confidence our spouse will finally change. But what if hope was never meant to work that way?We explore why hope is not a feeling you wait for, but a perspective you cultivate, how to stay anchored when change feels slow, and why remembering God's faithfulness matters in seasons of recurring pain.Because hope doesn't always change your circumstances immediately, but it does change how you endure while waiting :) Two Youtube Video Jenna refrenced about Hope: #1 Video for "Remembering" #2 Video for "Remembering"Click here for the $24 Group Coaching Package 2 calls : June 2 & July 7 @ 9am pstClick here for the "Summer Support" 6x 10 min 1:1 phone calls with Jenna On sale for $89 until June 2 Our Pre-Marriage E-course is like coaching from your couch. What's inside?✅ 6 bite-sized video sessions (30 min each)✅ 50-page workbook to guide real conversations✅ Topics on communication, conflict, intimacy, money & moreDon't just plan your wedding—prepare for your marriage!➡️ Buy the course  [cl Support the show-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------GRAB Jenna's Summer Course Here >>> Become a sponsor of our shows

Adam Spector, founder of Chore, four-time entrepreneur, and startup investor, joins Jerome Myers for a conversation about building in a world where the tools are moving faster than most people can process. From San Francisco's AI boom to the rising bar for young professionals, Adam shares why speed, focus, and delegation have become critical advantages for founders. He explains why entrepreneurs often become the “janitor” of their own companies, handling payroll, HR, finance, compliance, and other back-office work that pulls them away from the work only they can do. Jerome and Adam also explore AI's impact on jobs, education, startup investing, and founder behavior. Adam offers a clear challenge to business owners and ambitious professionals: stop waiting for permission, start building proof, and protect your most valuable resource: time. This episode is for founders, operators, investors, and professionals who want to understand what it takes to compete in the age of AI without losing sight of the life they are trying to build. In this episode: Why San Francisco remains the center of the AI boomHow AI is raising the bar for founders and job seekersWhy speed is now a strategic advantageWhat Adam looks for when investing in foundersWhy founders get trapped doing low-leverage workHow Chore helps entrepreneurs delegate back-office operationsWhy proof of work matters more than a polished resumeThe real cost of spending your time on the wrong thingsWhy the gatekeepers are gone Guest: Adam SpectorAdam Spector is a four-time founder, startup investor, and founder of Chore. Based in San Francisco, Adam has invested in roughly 200 startups and helps entrepreneurs protect their time by delegating the back-office work that slows them down.

If sex has started feeling like one more thing you're supposed to do in your relationship . . . this episode is for you.Maybe you still love your partner… but sex feels heavy, pressured, awkward, or emotionally draining. You want to want it — but instead you find yourself avoiding initiation, feeling disconnected, or wondering why intimacy feels so different than it used to.In this episode, Heather talks with sex and intimacy coach Xanet Pailet about the emotional patterns that quietly turn passionate relationships into roommate dynamics — including resentment, emotional disconnection, unresolved conflict, and feeling emotionally unsafe with your partner.They also discuss:Why couples stop wanting sex over timeThe emotional roots of sexless marriagesWhy unresolved resentment kills intimacyHow emotional safety impacts desireWhy many couples feel lonely even when they “never fight”The hidden patterns underneath low desireWhy sex can start feeling like another choreHow couples rebuild emotional and sexual connectionXanet also shares her personal story of surviving a 26-year sexless marriage, healing sexual shame and vaginismus, and eventually becoming a sex and intimacy coach helping couples reconnect emotionally and physically.If you've been feeling emotionally disconnected, stuck in resentment, or struggling to understand why attraction has faded in your relationship, this conversation will help you understand what's really happening underneath the surface.

You said "I do," and then assumed sex would just figure itself out. For a lot of couples, it doesn't. And the silence around that can make you feel like you're the only one struggling.In this episode, we get honest about the first three years of our marriage, when sex felt more like a burden than a blessing, and what we wish someone had told us sooner. We unpack the lingering weight of purity culture, the lie that physical intimacy should "just come naturally," and the small shifts that slowly turned things around. Whether you're a newlywed, engaged and prepping for the marriage bed, or a long-married couple wanting to grow, this conversation offers a hopeful, faith-informed look at what healthy intimacy in a Christian marriage can actually look like, and how to start talking about it without shame.In this episode:Why "sex is good and from God" is easier to believe in theory than in your bodyThe lonely myth that intimacy should come naturally, and why it often doesn'tThe one mindset shift that takes sex from transactional to deeply connecting"Chore play" and why foreplay starts hours before the bedroomHow to actually talk about sex with your spouse (without it getting weird)Why growing together sexually is one of the most underrated gifts of marriageYour one-degree shift for this weekFREE WEEKLY MARRIAGE MEETING TEMPLATE Mentioned in this episode:Download the FREE Weekly Marriage Meeting TemplateDownload the FREE Weekly Marriage Meeting Template at onedegreemarriage.com/meeting

The era of "testing" AI is over. For retail leaders, the tension has shifted from theoretical potential to a mandatory operational overhaul. If you aren't actioning data within 24 hours, you're already behind. Recorded at Shoptalk, quip CEO Meredith Glansberg joins Kimberly Morgan, a Top AI Leader, to dismantle the hype surrounding retail tech. Glansberg argues that AI isn't a "point solution"—it is a foundational layer that must support the high-trust, high-touch reality of wellness products. KEY INSIGHTS:

Whether you are currently on spring break or just trying not to be "spring broke," the struggle of dad guilt is a universal experience. The fellas dive into the work-versus-presence conundrum, exploring how early "husband guilt" evolves into a paternal fear of missing out on key milestones. Then, they get honest about the triggers of feeling like a "warm body" while zoning out on soccer scores and the "comparison trap" sparked by other dads' elaborate chore charts or "Spanish Wednesdays". From using a "brick" to battle phone distraction to the realization that most parenting is "caught, not taught," this conversation offers much-needed grace.
