This Week In Startups is made possible by:Circle — http://circle.so/twistHubspot Creators — http://clickhubspot.com/twist2Uber AI Solutions — http://uber.com/ai-solutionsToday's show: *Dave Morin joined the show today to explain how the OpenClaw Foundation came into existence, and what its goals are. Fear not, Peter Steinberger retains directional control of the project. But if you want to sustain an open-source project over time, you need a corporate entity, well-heeled sponsors, maintainers and more. Morin is helping make sure that OpenClaw can stay true to itself well into the future.TWIST also put the day's most critical AI stories to Morin for his insight: What's his take on the Anthropic-DoW fracas? Does Morin think that OpenAI and Anthropic are catching up to OpenClaw in agentic terms? And will OpenAI cede the consumer crown to Anthropic? Next came two amazing demos: Runtools' CTO Greg Kara showed off a 3D interface for OpenClaw that his team built, allowing ‘Claw users to watch their agents work in real time, and even read over their shoulder. Then PickelWatch founder George Yameen showed off an agnetic workflow using OpenClaw and Claude's Chrome plugin side-by-side. The gist? Make sure that the agentic service you select is cost-effective. **GUESTS:**Dave Morin: https://x.com/davemorin?lang=enGreg Kara: https://x.com/GregKara6George Yameen: https://x.com/GeorgeYameen**Timestamps:** 00:00 Dave Morin Joins the Show02:31 How Dave Morin got Claw-Pilled05:01 Jason's critical OpenClaw moments08:38 How Dave showcases his OpenClaw skills10:47 Uber AI Solutions - Your trusted partner to get AI to work in the real world.

I brought back Becky Pierson Davidson to compare notes on where community is headed — and we found a few areas of disagreement. Becky works with 6, 7, and 8-figure businesses helping them build memberships and courses through design thinking and customer research, and she's seeing a major shift right now: course businesses are slowing down, and the smart ones are pivoting to membership models. The difference? Shared learning experiences are replacing self-paced education. Community is what people stay for. We dig into the real mechanics: how to set expectations that don't feel like a bait-and-switch, why meaningful engagement isn't what most people think it is, the mastermind paradox (increases retention, decreases forum activity), and why in-person events might be the most important retention lever you're not using. Becky's hot take for 2026: content drops are dying. People don't need more stuff — they need connection and programming that moves them forward.

Explore the intriguing dynamics of grand juries and the famous saying, "you can indict a ham sandwich," in this insightful legal podcast episode.So grab your lunch (ham or otherwise) and settle in as the Lawyer Talk team serves up another thoughtful, informative, and entertaining legal discussion!Steve Palmer and Troy dive deep into the world of grand juries and legal process—using the infamous "ham sandwich" saying as their springboard.Have you ever wondered why people say a prosecutor can "indict a ham sandwich"? You're in the right place.Steve Palmer and Troy start by breaking down the purpose and mechanics of grand juries, explaining how they work behind closed doors, the rights of witnesses and targets, and the role of prosecutors.They navigate the reasons why the phrase became so popular (spoiler: it traces back to a colorful New York judge), and explore a recent news story—where a grand jury refused to indict six members of Congress, despite political pressure and public scrutiny.The conversation is lively, packed with real-world anecdotes, law school insights, and a refreshing lack of political bias. By the end of the episode, you'll not only understand the nuts and bolts of grand juries, but you'll see why sometimes, even with all the ingredients, not every "sandwich" ends up on the table.Here are 3 key takeaways:Grand Jury ≠ Trial Jury: As Steve Palmer explains, a grand jury isn't there to determine guilt or innocence, but to decide if there's enough evidence to indict someone. Defense attorneys and the accused often aren't even in the room.The “Ham Sandwich” Origin: The phrase wasn't coined in a legal opinion, but by New York Judge Saul Wachtler—ironically, after his own brush with the system. It highlights how easily indictments can happen if prosecutors push for them.Recent Congressional Case: A recent grand jury refused to indict several members of Congress, despite DOJ efforts—showing that indicting “a ham sandwich” isn't always guaranteed, especially when political and technical factors are at play.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

Tara and guest Rev. Ellen Corcella—author of "Walk With Me: A Journey Through the Landscape of Trauma" and host of Faith and Resilience Podcast—talk about resilience during Lent and in everyday life. They discuss resilience as both internal and beyond oneself, rooted in meaning-making, adaptability, and connection rather than individualism. Tara shares her evolving definition of theopoetics as creative engagement with God in community, and reflects on Julian of Norwich's hazelnut vision—God made it, loves it, and keeps it—as a grounding way to notice “thin spaces” of the sacred in ordinary moments. Tara describes practices like Lectio Divina and Visio Divina, using scripture, art, doodling, and poetry for contemplation, and reads her poem “Thin Space Day,” which locates pilgrimage-like holiness in daily routines (carpool, mailbox walks, lunchtime, coffee, commutes). The conversation connects thin spaces to Lent's wilderness metaphor, emphasizes God's presence in both mountaintops and valleys, and reframes “all manner of things be well” (AMOT) as holding both consolation and desolation. Ellen shares where to find her book, podcast and website (www.ellencorcella.com).Send Tara a Text MessageJoin Tara for Worship on Sunday morning at 10 am.

Most artists aren't stuck because they're doing it wrong. They're stuck because they don't know where they are. No destination makes sense without a starting point, and this episode gives you one.Underneath most of that stuckness is a belief that there's a rule book somewhere. A guide that says exactly how to build a practice, when to share your work, how to price it, when you're allowed to rest. And a quieter thought beneath that: that everybody else got the rule book except you. Here's what's true. There is no rule book. There never was. What there is is a map.Today I'm walking through the three frameworks that make up that map. The Four Seasons of your art practice (Making, Sharing, Selling, and Rest) explain why the pressure to do everything at once is so exhausting, and what it actually means to be in a season. The Three Zones (Circle of Comfort, Growth Zone, Ring of Terror) give you the emotional terrain, so you know when to stretch, when to hold, and when to come back in and rest. And the CREATE Spiral is a full recap of the upward cycle you're already inside. By the end of this one, you'll have language for where you actually are. And once you have that, everything else starts to fall into place.Key concepts in this episode:The Art GPS / Current Location metaphorFour Seasons: Making, Sharing, Selling, RestThree Zones: Circle of Comfort, Growth Zone, Ring of TerrorThe CREATE Spiral: Curiosity → Resistance → Explore → Absorb → Trust → ExpandIn this episode:You'll understand why the belief that "everyone else got the rule book" keeps artists stuck — and how to let it go.You'll know what season of your art practice you're actually in right now, and why naming it matters.Hear why going back into your Circle of Comfort is not slacking off, it's recovery, and it's what makes the next stretch possible.We talk about the CREATE Spiral as an upward cycle you're already inside, not a system you need to follow step by step.You'll leave with one clear question to orient yourself with: What season am I in right now?Support the showAnd hey - if this episode hit home, do me a favor, leave a review on Apple Podcast or come say hi on Instagram: @savvypainterpodcastI'd love to hear this episode resonated you. ❤️

Forgiveness is one of the most charged words in our culture. For many of us, it was coerced out of us as children or held up as something good people do. But what if forgiveness isn't about being good or letting someone off the hook? In this episode, Alexa Kistler and Tara Howley reframe forgiveness as an act of self-care, a way to reopen your heart without abandoning your boundaries. They discuss: Why coerced forgiveness misses the point Forgiveness as a three-step process: emotions, curiosity, and boundaries How boundaries make forgiveness possible The difference between forgiving someone and wanting to be around them What it means to forgive yourself Holding forgiveness as sacred without making it an obligation Send us your questions on Twitter, through our website, or in our Circle community!

Leigh Ann Phillips is an award-winning singer songwriter and sound healing educator. She is on a mission to merge sound and music to assist people in leading more fulfilling lives in healthier bodies. Her work is taking her all over the world and back again. Leigh Ann has developed a method of brainwave entrainment through the use of her voice and the quartz crystal singing bowls. It is a form of sound healing based on research on the brain as well as the musical system called the Circle of Fifths. The purpose of the work is to help people release emotions from the body, as well as raise the level of health and well being physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. She has developed a method of shifting and slowing the brain states, allowing people to not just relax but release emotional blocks that are allowing dis-ease in the body. Her method incorporates the use of the quartz crystal singing bowls, Tibetan singing bowls, tingshaws, harp, piano, herbal medicine as well as her voice. Using mantras in languages such as Sanskrit, Enochian and Aramaic, Leigh Ann incorporates ancient mantras and prayers to enhance the power of the sound. This method actually places the bowls on the person, so the person is receiving not just music and sound, but also vibration. Her passion is to assist people in building an awareness of consciousness to the mind, body and spirit. Some people would call this allowing sound and music to be a bridge to the soul. Leigh Ann is now back in Crestone, Colorado! She has been bringing sound healing and the music of the quartz crystal singing bowls into the mainstream. She has given demonstrations and sound healing sessions most recently in Taiwan, the Hawaiian islands, at the Gem Exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C, as well as at a Playboy event in the Los Angeles area. She has also made television and radio appearances on various health, and lifestyle programs in Hawaii, New York, Massachusetts, Colorado, New Mexico, as well as the Orient. The sound and the music have merged, and Leigh Ann's passion for life has sounded into a path where music can bring not just beauty, but health, peace and the evolution of the soul. Leigh Ann's latest recorded album release, Mik'ael (2013), is a musical tapestry of mantras, sung in the Enochian language, accompanied by quartz crystal singing bowls and world instruments. Mik'ael is a musical collaboration with writer and producer, Thomas Barquee, recorded at Zenden Studios in California. Ideal for yoga and meditation, Mik'ael is a healing offering to the Archangel Michael, and all that is peaceful in nature and ourselves. Her next recording project will be spoken word, co-created again with Thomas Barquee. She is also the Executive Director of The Shimmering Sounds Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to bringing sound healing as a complimentary therapy to the masses. The foundation has given hundreds of free sessions to people that could not normally afford holistic health sessions. The foundation incorporates the use of a crystal healing bed as well, a complementary treatment to the sound using color, vibration and light. Currently she has developed her own line of quartz crystal singing bowls, using unusual gemstones to infuse the bowls, as well as etching ancient mandalas that amplify the intention of this sacred art through the power of the sound. https://www.leighannphillips.com/ Call In and Chat with Deborah during Live Show: 833-220-1200 or 319-527-2638 Learn more about Deborah here: www.lovebyintuition.com
In this episode, Scott Becker highlights a sharp surge in Circle Internet Group driven by strong crypto earnings.
At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana tackles one of the most controversial beliefs she holds: your children should not be your purpose. Before you close this tab, hear her out—because this distinction might be the most liberating thing you hear all year. Dana opens up about why believing your kids are your only purpose actually burdens them with the weight of your unfulfilled dreams. She shares a heated debate she had at a Circle event where someone completely misunderstood what she meant, and breaks down the critical difference between "my kids ARE my purpose" versus "my kids GIVE ME purpose." One creates guilt, shame, and disconnection. The other creates fuel, integration, and a reciprocal relationship where you empower each other. From her five-year-old daughter's problem-solving at a pumpkin patch ("Mom, get your computer and make money while we're in the bouncy house!") to why she believes modeling beats martyring every single time, Dana challenges everything you've been told about what it means to be a "good mom." The real lesson? When you pursue your dreams openly and involve your kids in age-appropriate ways, you don't create disconnection—you create a team. And your kids learn more from watching you build something meaningful than from you sacrificing silently and resenting it later.

Send a textIf you're in perimenopause while actively parenting young children, this episode is for you. You are straddling two completely different life stages at once — and not enough people are talking about it. In this solo episode, I'm getting personal about my own experience navigating early motherhood and perimenopause simultaneously, why it's so much harder than it looks, and what's actually happening in your body and nervous system that explains all of it. You are not failing. You are not broken. You are in one of the most demanding intersections a woman can find herself in — and there is a way through.In This EpisodeThe cultural invisibility of this experience — why most perimenopause conversations assume your kids are grown, and most parenting conversations assume you have stable hormones, and how that leaves a lot of women feeling alone and ashamed in the gap.What's actually happening hormonally — how declining estrogen affects serotonin, GABA, cortisol regulation, sleep, cognition, pain tolerance, and emotional buffering, and how declining progesterone amplifies anxiety and overwhelm.The pregnenolone prioritization— why chronic stress (including the very real chronic stress of parenting young children) diverts hormonal resources away from sex hormones and toward cortisol, and why this means you're getting hit from both sides.The window of resilience — why it naturally narrows in perimenopause, why parenting young children requires a wide one, and what it looks and feels like when those two realities collide.My own story — getting diagnosed with Hashimoto's when my son was around two, the depression, the rage, the fatigue, and what understanding the nervous system-hormonal connection has meant for how I hold all of it now.The archetypal tension — the Mother archetype (energy flowing outward) meeting the Virgin archetype (energy turning inward) and why this isn't a problem to solve but a paradox to hold.Practical tools for the reality of parenting — micro-practices you can actually do with a child climbing on you, including breathwork, grounding, somatic shaking, completing stress cycles, and Ayurvedic support.Resources MentionedBalance Your Hormones, Balance Your Life by Claudia WelchFree Gentle Ayurvedic Guide to Perimenopause Rhythm & Ritual — 6-week Ayurvedic group program for women in perimenopause, registration opens March 2nd, group starts beginning of April — Mailing list (to be notified when the free Circle community for mothers in perimenopause launches)Resources:Free Masterclass: The Alchemy of the Perimenopause Portal Ayurvedic Dosha Quick Reference Guide Abhyanga Self Massage Guide Weekend Nervous System Reset Nourished For Resilience Workbook Find me at www.nourishednervoussystem.comand @nourishednervoussytem on Instagram

This episode peels back the layers on when formal protections really start—and why the nuances matter.Welcome back to Lawyer Talk! In today's episode, host Steve Palmer is joined by law student Troy to tackle an important—and often misunderstood—question: when does your right to counsel actually begin?Inspired by a follow-up question from the show's production company, the conversation dives into the legal meaning of "adversarial proceedings" and why just being in a police interrogation room, as intense as it may feel, doesn't always mean your Sixth Amendment rights have fully kicked in.Steve Palmer breaks down the language and definitions that matter most in the courtroom, while Troy brings a fresh perspective from law school. Whether you're a legal scholar or just curious about your rights, this episode peels back the layers on when formal protections really start—and why the nuances matter.Here are three key takeaways from their conversation:"Adversarial" is a Term of Art: The right to counsel under the Sixth Amendment doesn't hinge on when things feel adversarial (like during a police interrogation), but rather on a technical, legal definition—the "instigation of formal adversarial proceedings."Trigger Point Matters: According to Steve Palmer, this right typically attaches at the preliminary hearing stage—not simply at the initial appearance or during police questioning.Words Matter in Law: Legal concepts often have specific definitions that may differ from everyday usage. Understanding these nuances is critical and makes all the difference in protecting your rights.Got a question you want answered on the podcast? Call 614-859-2119 and leave us a voicemail.

Send a textCommunity shock happens when a public tragedy or disaster disrupts a community's sense of safety and predictability, creating a ripple of nervous-system activation far beyond those directly involved. This episode is the Trauma Types companion to S16E161, where we explored collective grief and trauma after sudden tragedy. Here, we zoom in on community shock as a trauma pathway: why people cycle through hypervigilance, numbness, anger, and exhaustion; how media exposure can keep the nervous system activated; and why meaning-making can turn into blame, rumour cycles, or polarisation. We end with a short grounding practice designed to reduce helplessness by focusing on a “circle of control.”In this episode, you'll learnWhat community shock is and how it spreads through proximity, identification, and exposureHow this episode connects to S16E161 (collective grief + trauma after sudden tragedy)Polyvagal-informed patterns: mobilised protection, shutdown, and cyclingRipple effects across groups: directly affected, witnesses, helpers, and the wider communityWhy meaning-making can intensify blame, rumours, and polarisationWhat helps: media dosing, routine, choice-based community support, body-first regulationA grounding practice to restore a sense of control and supportGrounding practice (2–3 minutes): “Circle of Control”Draw a small circle on your palmName 3 things you can control right nowName 2 supports you can lean onPhrase: “I can't control everything.

Explore the legal realities versus TV drama in police interrogations. Learn why attorneys can't simply barge in during questioning.Whether you're a true crime fan, a law student, or just someone curious about what really happens behind police station doors, this episode is packed with eye-opening advice and a dash of legal humor.Welcome back to another episode of Lawyer Talk! Today, Steve Palmer and Troy talk about the legal realities behind the hit TV show "Landman"—specifically, can a fiery defense attorney really burst into a police station and halt an interrogation, just like you see on TV?Spoiler alert: the real world doesn't play by Hollywood's rules.Drawing from their own legal insight and experience, they break down what really happens when someone is questioned by police, when your right to an attorney actually kicks in, and why your best move might just be to keep quiet.It's a candid, myth-busting conversation that uncovers the truth about Miranda rights, the right to counsel, and how legal drama often bends (or breaks) the rules for entertainment's sake.Here are 3 key takeaways from the episode:Lawyers Can't Just Burst Into Interrogations: Unlike dramatic TV lawyers, real attorneys can't force their way into police interview rooms to “save the day.” The police aren't required to halt questioning just because an attorney shows up.Know When Your Right to Counsel Actually Starts: The right to have a lawyer present usually doesn't “attach” until formal criminal charges are filed or a preliminary hearing is underway—not simply during a police interview or right after arrest.Best Advice? Stay Quiet: If you find yourself being questioned by the police, follow the golden rule: don't speak until you've talked to a lawyer. You can always request legal representation, and the police must then stop the interrogation.Got a question you want answered on the podcast? Call 614-859-2119 and leave us a voicemail.

Are you in the seat that God is calling you to? In this episode, Jeff and Kyle discuss: Living with curiosity and open communication. Generosity in influence. Learning and living in both the 1st and 2nd generation seats of organizations. Tapping into your emotional side. Key Takeaways: The family story is made up of 4 Ts, not 3: time, talent, treasure, and testimony. Write for your family alone. What do you want them to know and to carry forward? We must invest in the rising generation. Consider walking through the succession and transfer of influence sooner than you think. This can help to break the negative cycles that we may not even see. The focus of the family needs to come through the spirit. Get out of your head, and feel what God wants you to know and to do. "I'm talking about doing something that taps into this softer, emotional feeling side that at first feels very uncomfortable, but I believe the Holy Spirit will speak through it in ways that are unimaginable and are uniquely gifted to unleash something that is God-breathed." — Kyle Circle Episode References: Gospel Patrons: People Whose Generosity Changed the World by John Rinehart About Kyle Circle: Kyle is from a 19-generation farming family and was born into the largest 1st Gen strawberry farming family in the U.S., now in the wine business in the Central Coast of CA. They sold a 500-acre vineyard to the Gallos in 2018 and another 440 acres to Cupcake. Today, they're the largest grower for Joel Gott and Austin Hope in Santa Ynez and Paso in the Central Coast of California, with hundreds of acres of premium vineyards. The family history can be summed up as high-tech thinking in a low-tech industry, like agriculture. Today, the family holds various classes of real estate. This led him to start his 1st business when he was 11 years old, today owning land/vineyard, commercial, industrial & residential properties. He ended up having a 15-year professional music career where he played drums for Katy Perry. He did A&R, having found Francesca Battistelli getting her record deal, and managed a half dozen artists until 2010. His last artist was Nate Smith, who now has 3 #1 country singles and has been out with Morgan Wallen all last year and been out with Jason Aldean. Kyle was featured in Robert Frank's 2007 New York Times best-selling book, “Richistan: A Journey Through the American Wealth Boom and the Lives of the New Rich,” in Chapter 11 titled Astrokids. Robert was the Senior Editor of the Wall Street Journal's “The Wealth Report” for 18 years, is now the CNBC Wealth Editor, and has been hosting Inside Wealth since 2012. In 2005, along with a small group, co-created YPONextGen (now called YNG for raising the next generation of YPO/YPO Gold), which Kyle was part of for 7 years before joining EO (Entrepreneurs Organization) for 7 years, where he was also on the local board. There is now a YNG chapter in every major city in the world. He's always been a serial entrepreneur with a deep heart for pastors! Having chaired the national board for standingstoneministry.org for 4 yrs, on the board for 7 yrs, 2017-2021, and walked the founders through succession planning, which opened his eyes to how closely related the rich younger ruler and pastors and ministry leaders and their families were.

People want transparency! Or do we? If nothing else, public calls for revealing government secrets raise a lot of ruckus, especially when the secrets in question seem to be covering up aliens. Zack is our UAP/UFO expert. Stephen is intrigued yet skeptical. We're both all over last week's headlines. One former president claimed he knows aliens are real. Then the current U.S. president said he would declassify files. Whatever happens next, why do people want disclosure so badly?

Stephen Burnett Mission update New reviews: For The Good of All and Andromache Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild Writing that next great alien-invasion novel? Join the Authorship. Quotes and notes Armies of the Aliens series on Fantastical Truth 1. Disclosure may expose human loneliness. This news could upend members of the alien fandom. We could all discover there were no aliens after all. Instead we might hear about human technology. And we might suspect we're alone in the universe. 2. Disclosures can upset our metaphysics Disclosure of extraterrestrial life could upend religion. Or we could discover the “aliens” are interdimensional. Some writers believe consciousness rewrites our understanding of the universe. Maybe the twist on the Fermi Paradox means humans actually arrived first. Zack posted this response on X: “I definitely believe that sinister interdimensional beings directed many religious texts. And that the Bible was given by an interdimensional being. Just one that is supreme to all the others, and good.” 3. Worst, disclosures may promote demons. This too could upend society's “respectable” materialism. That notion explains elite seances and messages from “aliens.” This would be biblical, but seeing this exposed could be shocking. It might even mean some of powerful leaders are controlled by demons Com station Top question for listeners If we get “disclosure” at all, what secrets do you expect to learn? Autumn Grayson wrote a whole essay about ep. 298: … In general, when it comes to people's political posts, there are some things I dislike, and some things that would be good to stay away from. It's certainly best if people say things that have more substance than just expressing outrage or disapproval, because well thought out engagement on a topic is better. But I do respect people's freedom and autonomy to say what they want to. I'll agree with it or disagree with it as I see fit. I'll get something out of it and learn from it either way, but what I may learn is that the content creator is someone I would not want to communicate or collaborate with. Or, the content creator ends up being an example of what NOT to do. Whatever people do, they should remember that they're showing something of themselves to the audience, and people have to ask themselves if that is truly how they want to come across and communicate to others. It may feel good to voice outrage in the moment or gain social clout for being on what some people call ‘the right side of history', but is it really accomplishing anything constructive? Is this really the kind of person the author wants to be? Next on Fantastical Truth Space is a dangerous place. Even recently we learned that Artemis II rocket has suffered another fuel system-related setback! But that's real life. In other worlds and other galaxies, “space” is full of life, risk, adventure, romance, and fantastical new worlds. Just in time for Firebreak, book 1 of the Firebird Interlude Trilogy, we're joined by longtime science fiction novelist Kathy Tyers to explore how the best Christian-made space operas sing through this teeming expanse.

Episode 1606: The Jerk
Hello, hello — and welcome back to Greedy Bitch, the podcast for groomers who are done apologizing for wanting more. I'm your host, River Lee — founder of The Savvy Groomer. And today's episode is a direct follow-up to our last conversation about falling in love with your clients — and stopping yourself from building a business around fling clients. Because once you start asking: “Who am I actually in relationship with in my business?” The next question becomes: “How am I communicating with them?” And that's where policies come in. Because whether you realize it or not — your policies are a love language. They tell clients: What you value What you tolerate What they can expect And how safe your business actually is And if your policies are unclear, inconsistent, or constantly bent… You're sending mixed signals. And mixed signals? They don't attract soulmate clients. They attract confusion, entitlement, and burnout. Especially as we head straight into shavedown season. Let's start with why policies feel so hard for groomers. Most groomers don't hate policies because they're unnecessary. They hate them because policies feel: Mean Awkward Confrontational Or like you're “being difficult” We were taught to be accommodating. To be kind. To be understanding. And somewhere along the way, “professional” got confused with “people-pleasing.” So instead of policies feeling like support, they start to feel like punishment. But here's the truth: Avoiding policies doesn't make you kind. It makes your business confusing. And confused clients don't feel safe. They feel entitled. Because when expectations aren't clear, people fill in the gaps with whatever works best for them. That's not a client problem. That's a communication problem. And it always shows up when you're already tired. Let's talk about mixed signals — because this is where most businesses quietly train the wrong behavior. Mixed signals look like: Policies that exist… but aren't enforced “Case-by-case” exceptions that happen constantly Apologizing when you enforce your own boundaries Saying “this is our policy” and then immediately bending it That's the equivalent of saying: “I have standards… but not really.” And clients respond accordingly. Here's the thing I want you to hear very clearly: You don't attract fling clients — you train them. If clients learn that: Pickup times are flexible Fees are negotiable Boundaries depend on your mood Policies only apply sometimes They will test every edge. Not because they're bad people — but because inconsistency teaches people to push. If your policies are flexible, your clients will be too. And this gets especially dangerous during shavedown season. Because when stress is high, you're enforcing boundaries reactively instead of proactively. That's when resentment builds. That's when burnout accelerates. Here's the reframe that changes everything: Soulmate clients don't want flexibility — they want clarity. They want to know: How your business works What to expect What the rules are And that those rules won't change randomly Structure feels safe to aligned clients. Professionalism feels calming. Predictability builds trust. High-quality clients expect: Clear policies Clear communication Clear systems They don't want to negotiate. They don't want exceptions. They don't want chaos. They want to drop their dog off and trust that everything is handled. Boundaries don't push soulmate clients away. They invite them in. And every time you enforce a policy without apology, you're sending a very clear message: “This business is stable.” “This business is predictable.” “This business respects itself.” And people who respect that? Stick around. This is the part that doesn't get talked about enough. Policies aren't just for clients. They're for you. Every time you: Over-explain Soften your language Add disclaimers Say “I'm so sorry, but…” You're teaching yourself that your needs come second. And over time, that turns into resentment. Not because clients are awful — but because you're constantly negotiating with yourself. Policies protect: Your time Your energy Your emotional bandwidth Your sustainability They remove decision fatigue. They remove constant justification. They remove the need to explain yourself every single day. Policies are not about control. They're about self-respect. And a business built on self-respect feels very different to work in. One of the biggest red flags I see in grooming businesses is over-editing. Softening language. Adding disclaimers. Trying to make everything sound nicer. Secure relationships don't require constant reassurance. Clear expectations reduce conflict. They don't create it. You don't need to convince the right clients. You just need to communicate clearly. And the clients who bristle at that? They were never your soulmate clients anyway. Clarity is not cruelty. Boundaries are not rejection. They are information. If this episode made you realize how much energy you're spending managing clients instead of grooming — that awareness matters. Because shavedown season doesn't create chaos. It reveals weak systems. And the best time to fix that? Is before you're overwhelmed. That's why I created the Business Workshop Library. Inside the library, you'll find practical, system-focused workshops like: Onboarding Clients & Dealing With Difficult Clients Take Control & Organize Your Business Run Your Business on Autopilot These workshops are designed to help you: Clarify expectations Strengthen communication Reduce emotional labor And stop relying on memory and goodwill to run your business ✨ The Business Workshop Library is $200 for the year ✨ Or $50 a month And if you're looking for ongoing support while you actually implement these policies, that's exactly what the Savvy Groomer Circle is for. Inside the Circle, you get continued education, monthly Q&As, real-time conversations, and support as you build, enforce, and refine your policies — especially during high-stress seasons like shavedown season. And for groomers who want deeper access and more personalized support, the Inner Circle gives you that next level — including direct access to me so you're not navigating these decisions alone. You can learn more or join the Savvy Groomer Circle or Inner Circle — at savvygroomer.com/membership If you want to head into shavedown season with clarity instead of chaos, You can find the Business Workshop Library at savvygroomer.com/gwg As always — stay savvy, stay greedy, and never apologize for wanting more.
Can your singing actually be prayer to God? In this teaching, Alex Rettman explores three powerful truths about worship: it changes us as we behold God's glory, it moves God's heart when we offer costly praise, and it shifts circumstances as we lay a target for His kingdom to come. He shows us how worship isn't just about singing songs: it's about expressing our delight in God in ways that complete our joy and partner with Him in pushing back darkness.Key Scripture Passages: Exodus 33v18-23; John 1v18; 2 Corinthians 3v16-18; Psalm 22v3; Isaiah 42v10-13This podcast and its episodes are paid for by The Circle, our community of monthly givers.

In this final episode of the attachment series, Christa sits down with another Enneagram expert, Jeff Cook, Enneagram Type 1, philosopher, former pastor, and co-host of the popular Around the Circle Enneagram podcast, as we talk about attachment and how couples can process conflict. We also talk about his new book Around the Circle: An Enneagram Book (June 2025). Unlike most Enneagram books that profile types individually, Jeff's book explores nine essential questions everyone faces (like "How do I solve my problems?") and answers them for all nine types, creating a richer, more nuanced understanding. Jeff brings a Christian philosophical lens to the Enneagram, reminding us of the fact that relationships are all we bring with us into eternity, so it's important to grow here as an individual, and we try to answer what it means to be our healthiest selves. They discuss the power of naming our motives, why the Enneagram isn't about "putting people in boxes," the Harmonic groups (Positive Outlook: 2, 7, 9 who reframe; Competency: 1, 3, 5 who problem-solve; Reactive: 4, 6, 8 who intensify emotions). Whether you're new to the Enneagram or a seasoned student, this conversation will deepen your understanding and help you see yourself and your spouse more clearly. Watch on YouTube!

If you've ever wondered how to handle a call from the police or felt pressure to “clear your name,” this episode is packed with the insights you need to stay protected.Welcome to Lawyer Talk Podcast. I'm Steve Palmer, your host, and in this episode, I jump right into one of the most common—and misunderstood—issues people face when dealing with police: whether or not to talk to them if you're accused of something.I'll explain why your right to remain silent is so crucial, and why you should hold onto it tightly, even if you think having a lawyer by your side makes it safer.Drawing on my own experience with clients, I talk through real-life scenarios, share how police interview tactics work, and tell you why keeping quiet is almost always your best move. I'll walk you through the practical advice I give when clients ask if making a statement could help their case, and whether my presence during questioning changes anything.Key Takeaways:Silence is Protection: Even if you're completely innocent, Steve Palmer explains why it's almost always best not to talk to the police. You can't talk your way out of a charge, and anything you say can be used against you.Having a Lawyer Doesn't Change the Basics: Bringing a lawyer to a police interview doesn't guarantee protection. The fundamental danger of supplying information to the police remains, whether or not your attorney is present.Know Before You Act: The police often have details and agendas you might not know about. Before making any statements, get all the facts—ideally through your lawyer, not from a police interview.Got a question you want answered on the podcast? Call 614-859-2119 and leave us a voicemail.
