If you just found out that you're testing positive for high-risk HPV on your pap smear result, I'm going to walk you through the five essential steps I recommend for anyone who has received a positive high risk HPV diagnosis. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor and certified professional midwife who has been in practice for over 25 years helping women understand high risk HPV and what they can do to protect themselves from cancer associated with the high-risk HPV virus. You're in the perfect place to learn exactly what you need to do because I understand how scary it can be when you first get those test results back from your gynecologist showing positive for high-risk HPV. The diagnosis might be type 16 or 18 or one of the other fourteen types of high-risk HPV that are associated with cancer risk. No matter which type is testing positive—or sometimes more than one—it can trigger significant fear, anxiety, and worry about what to do next. What can you do to protect yourself? How can you be proactive? Often, gynecology offices tell patients to "just wait and come back in three to six months or a year, and there's nothing you can do about it." I speak with thousands of women every year, and this is what they consistently tell me their doctor's office says—that there's nothing you can do but wait and see if it causes abnormal cells or cancer. As someone who has been helping women for over 25 years—thousands of women around the world—I'm here to tell you that you don't have to wait and see if it turns into cancer. There are steps you can take starting now, and that's the purpose of this guide: to give you clear direction on what you can do immediately. I know it's challenging to find this We're here to help!

"Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed." — Proverbs 15:22When it comes to managing money wisely, many of us could use some help, but how do you know you've found the right financial advisor? Today, we'll explore a few key questions you should ask when hiring someone to help you with your financial decisions. Sharon Epps is here to help us navigate that process.Sharon Epps is the President of Kingdom Advisors, FaithFi's parent organization. Kingdom Advisors serves the broad Christian financial industry by educating and equipping professionals to integrate biblical wisdom and financial expertise.How to Find a Financial Advisor Who Aligns With Your FaithFinding a financial advisor can be overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. With the right questions and a clear framework, you can confidently choose someone who aligns with your values, demonstrates technical competence, and offers a transparent process. Here are three things to consider when hiring a financial advisor who shares your faith and values. 1. Values Alignment: Do They Share Your Worldview?The most important starting point is finding an advisor whose faith informs their advice. There's a big difference between an advisor who is a Christian and one who actively discusses financial decision-making through a biblical lens.Key Questions to Ask:What role does faith play in your financial advice?How do you define financial success?You're listening for more than a respectful nod toward your faith. You want to know if they see money as a tool for stewardship, generosity, and Kingdom impact, not just a means of personal gain.2. Competency: Are They Qualified to Serve You?Once values are aligned, it is essential to ensure the advisor has the technical skills and experience necessary to guide your financial decisions.Look for:Industry certifications (like CFP®, CPA, CKA®, etc.)Experience working with clients in your stage of lifeKey Question to Ask:Can you tell me about clients you've served who are in a similar situation to mine?Good advisors won't name names, but they should be able to share stories of impact that demonstrate how they've helped people like you.3. Process & Compensation: Are They Transparent and Clear?A trustworthy advisor will be open about how they make money and how they work with clients.Key Questions to Ask:Can you explain how you're compensated—fees, commissions, or both—for someone like me?What is your process for creating a financial plan?They should be able to explain their step-by-step approach, timeline, and what you'll need to provide—all in clear, understandable terms. You want someone with “the heart of a teacher.”Ready to Find an Advisor?If you're beginning your search—or even considering reevaluating your current advisor—you can start at FaithFi.com.

These advisors have been vetted for:Biblical worldviewIntegrityTechnical excellenceYou'll also find a free downloadable PDF with suggested interview questions to help guide your search. You can rehire your advisor every year, and it's wise stewardship to evaluate that relationship regularly.When advisors undergo CKA® training, they begin to carry the weight of stewardship—not only for their own resources but also for how they guide clients to make decisions with eternal impact. That's the kind of advisor worth seeking out.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My wife and I want to set up a will. We have a son we support and want to make sure he gets everything. I talked to a lawyer who said trusts aren't necessary anymore and are expensive. I have about $300,000 in home equity, and I'm wondering about taxes and how he might handle the property.My dad recently passed away. My mom has been drawing on his Social Security because she didn't have enough credits from working. What percentage of my Dad's Social Security benefits will she receive as a survivor? What benefits will she get since he was a veteran with VA disability?Am I supposed to pay tithes on the income of my Social Security now that I'm retired?Now that my wife is retired and I'm almost retired, is maintaining a good credit score still important?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Social Security Administration (SSA.gov) | U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA.gov)Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Had to record some real-time realizations with you:your inner clarity sets the tone for everything.And when you're not clear?The dream can't find you.the way we clarify, choose, and call in what supports us…is the same across love, life, and leadership.Whether it's an assistant or a partner, a business or a lifestyle-the standards you set internally shape what shows up externally.So this episode is a love letter to the in-between.To the version of you who's hiring, dating, dreaming-and refusing to settle.Because how you do one thing… is how you invite everything.

These three previously recorded videos from Coach Karena are must-watches for content creators.Posting frequency alone won't boost visibility; focus on strategic positioning & meaningful engagement instead. Avoid common mistakes like sharing only facts without insights, which attracts non-action-taking 'content hoarders'. Shift audience beliefs to inspire action by emphasizing the costs of inaction.Implement a three-part visibility formula: 1) Clear positioning & messaging, 2) Engagement-driven content to spark discussion, 3) Prioritize quality & consistency over sheer volume. Daily posting isn't necessary; quality relationships outweigh follower counts for generating sales. Target 3-4 impactful posts weekly.Engagement requires proactive interaction from creators—engage with audience to receive engagement in return. Analyze input from DMs, comments, and competitor content to understand audience needs. Focus on active platforms where your audience enjoys participating.

This candid conversation offers powerful insights for leaders ready to move beyond outdated paradigms and build authentic, courageous connections with their teams.Related Links:Join the People Managing People community forumSubscribe to the newsletter to get our latest articles and podcastsConnect with Kelly on LinkedInCheck out Kelly's websiteSupport the show
Rev. Rachel Rhodes - Luke 24:13-35
Clutter begins by not putting things back! What if we started putting our mind back to where God originally designed for it to be?
Loss is hard...especially when you're someone who's a little too familiar with it. Whether it's another friendship breakup, another relationship that didn't work out, or another job that you've been let go from, when something ends, it feels personal. You start to ask yourself, is it me? Am I the problem? In today's episode, I talk about reframing that mindset. Thinking about loss as redirection and growth. That breakup, that fallout, that sudden ending...maybe it happened to redirect you. Maybe that thing falling apart is what cleared the space for something better to come together.

If you've been feeling discouraged about your blog traffic lately, you're not alone. In this episode of Creatives on Fire, I'm pulling back the curtain on what's really happening with blog traffic in 2025—and giving you five smart strategies to take back control. https://creativesonfirepodcast.com/episode197 How to Get More Blog Traffic I was originally going to cover a different topic this week, but after hearing so many creators talk about low traffic, broken platforms, and general burnout, I had to hit pause and share what I've personally been working through—and how I'm turning it around. Let's talk about what matters, what doesn't, and what you can actually do to get your blog traffic moving again. First: Don't Fall for the Comparison Game It's easy to feel lost when all the voices around you are saying different things. Google is broken, Pinterest is dead, Facebook is hiding links—it's enough to make any blogger feel like giving up. But the truth is, numbers don't lie. So that's where I went—to my Google Analytics. When I compared my year-to-date stats from 2024 to 2025, here's what I found: Sessions were down 20% Pageviews were down a shocking 50% Ouch. That was a wake-up call. But it also gave me clarity. Sessions are mostly out of my control. Pageviews? That's on me. Sessions vs. Pageviews: What's the Difference? If you're not familiar with these terms: Sessions = Visitors arriving at your site (they showed up to the dance) Pageviews = The number of pages they visited (how many people they danced with) So while platforms control a lot of traffic volume (sessions), you control what happens once people land on your site. That's where the pageviews come in—and that's where you can make a huge impact. How to Improve Your Blog's Page Speed Before diving into pageview tactics, I looked at what I could do to improve page speed, which still plays a huge role in search and user experience. Here's what I did: Audited my plugins to remove outdated or unnecessary tools Replaced and optimized my image compression plugin (I now use ShortPixel, which found 1,200 images that needed more compression) Even small improvements to your blog's speed can help platforms like Google and Pinterest want to send more traffic your way. 5 Smart Strategies to Increase Blog Pageviews Once I optimized the tech side, I moved on to what I could do to increase pageviews—the number that is in our control. These five strategies are what I'm actively working on now. 1. Restructure Your Blog for Simpler Navigation When readers land on your homepage or a post, can they immediately tell what you're about and where to go next? Clear navigation, especially with buttons that lead to categories (like “See All Crafts” or “Browse Recipes”), is key. 2. Connect Your Orphan Posts Go find the blog posts that aren't linked to anything else—SEO tools like Ahrefs can help. Either delete them if they don't align with your brand, or link them meaningfully into related content to keep readers clicking. 3. Add Prompts to Explore More Think: “See all fall posts” or “Get more lemon dessert ideas.” Use bold call-to-action buttons early in your post to send them to your category or roundup pages. The more paths they can follow, the more pageviews you'll get. 4. Include a ‘Start Here' Block Toward the top of your post, include a reusable block that says “New here? Start here.” Link it to a curated welcome page with your top categories, opt-ins, and reader favorites. Help new visitors instantly know how to explore. 5. Introduce a Weekly or Ongoing Series Give readers a reason to keep coming back. It could be: A 5-week project like “5 Weeks to a Porch Makeover” A two-part post (before & after) A weekly roundup of your own posts, styled for Pinterest or seasonal trends You could even turn your weekly content into a newsletter hook: “Get this week's top DIYs straight to your inbox!” The Bottom Line: Don't Panic—Make a Plan If traffic is down, take a deep breath. Stop listening to the noise and go check your own analytics. Is it sessions? Pageviews? Once you know, you can act. And that's powerful. Because blogging isn't dead—but it is evolving. And it's our job to evolve with it. Give your blog a tune-up. Guide your readers more clearly. And most importantly, keep showing up consistently. Until next time, stay creative.

In this episode of ThimbleberryU, we step behind the curtain of financial planning to unpack what makes a financial plan succeed—and just as importantly—what can derail it. We kick things off with a discussion about structure and intentionality. Amy Walls explains how her team at Thimbleberry Financial organizes their schedules to be proactive and client-focused. By setting clear availability and reserving space for strategic planning and internal work, they're able to show up fully prepared for client meetings and respond effectively in between.We then explore how life events, especially the big and unexpected ones, impact planning. Medical diagnoses, large expenses, home changes, or receiving an inheritance—all of these can affect a financial strategy. We emphasize the importance of timely communication: the sooner we know, the better we can adjust the plan. Amy also reminds us that “big” is subjective. Our financial mindset and values shape how we define major changes, and that's part of the data that matters, too.Speaking of data, we clarify that every document request serves a purpose. Whether it's retirement summaries or tax returns, we ask only for what might improve the accuracy and depth of our advice. Sometimes, those pieces of information reveal benefits or pitfalls that clients weren't even aware of, significantly shifting their trajectory. Taxes, in particular, often catch people off guard, and without returns in hand, it's tough to diagnose the real issue.As we dig deeper, we confront ambition versus reality. When clients want to retire early but aren't on track for a more standard goal, we stress the importance of honest evaluation. If you're not ready to make the changes needed to hit the baseline, it's not useful to explore stretch goals. It's not about being harsh—it's about using everyone's time wisely and avoiding decision fatigue.We close by highlighting what a successful client-advisor relationship looks like. Clear communication, timely data, and realism about trade-offs are essential. When clients are engaged, responsive, and honest about what's possible, we can offer not just sound advice, but advice that truly improves lives. Financial planning works best when both advisor and client show up ready to collaborate with transparency and intention.

You try to follow the Qur'an and Sunnah—then you're told you're rigid. You quote the Salaf—then you're labelled a Wahhabi. And why do others accuse you of being extreme—for simply following what the Salaf believed? This lecture tackles these tensions head-on—through the words of early and authentic voices of Ahl al-Hadith. Study the book I'tiqad A'immah al-Hadith by Imam Abu Bakr al-Ismaʿili (d. 371H). With Shaikh Dr. Asim Al-Qaryooti, we explore how the true Imams of the Sunnah understood and lived their creed. The book dismantles many modern doubts and deviations by clearly stating what the Salaf believed regarding: - Allah's Names and Attributes - The authority of authentic Hadith in Aqeedah—even if it's Aahaad - Rejecting blind following when it clashes with the Qur'an and Sunnah - Avoiding philosophy, kalam, and speculative theology, and returning to the clear guidance of revelation - True loyalty to the Imams—by following their principles, not their mistakes This is the creed that stood the test of time. A creed based on the Qur'an, the Sunnah, and the understanding of the first three generations. If you've ever struggled with the tension between following the evidence and adopting Taqleed… if you've been told that affirming Allah's Attributes means you're anthropomorphising… or if you want to know what the scholars of Hadith actually believed—this is the session to watch.

Your bad estate plan is going to cost you! In today's episode, Lauren Klein, a Florida-based tax and estate planning attorney, discussed the critical components of effective estate planning. She debunks myths about revocable trusts, touches on the importance of regularly updating estate plans, and shares on the unethical financial incentives some attorneys may have to let plans fall short. We also talk the strategic use of irrevocable trusts, asset titling, and state-specific protections like Florida's homestead laws for enhanced asset security. We discuss... Lauren Klein is a Florida-based tax, trust, and estate attorney who works nationally, helping clients with estate planning, probate avoidance, and tax strategies. Probate happens when someone dies owning assets solely in their name without a beneficiary or trust. Probate adds stress during grief and often sparks disputes—especially if there's no clear plan or distant relatives get involved. Family fights usually come from unresolved issues, emotional baggage, or greed. Clear planning helps prevent conflict, though it can't always stop it. Many assume a will or trust avoids probate, but trusts must be properly funded—assets need to be retitled into the trust or have it listed as beneficiary. The estate planning industry is too transactional—clients get documents but little follow-up. After a death, families often struggle to locate and transfer assets legally while grieving. It requires attorneys, paperwork, and patience. A common myth is that revocable trusts protect assets from taxes or lawsuits. They don't during your lifetime—but they help avoid probate and add control. Revocable trusts shine when passing assets to kids. They can protect inheritances from divorce or lawsuits and become irrevocable (and stronger) after death. Trusts are especially helpful for blended families and young kids. You can distribute assets in stages and add estate tax protection with proper planning. Irrevocable trusts offer stronger protections but are more complex and better suited for high net worth or special planning needs. Asset protection varies by state—Florida, for example, offers homestead and tenancy protections. Even how you title a car can matter. Retirement accounts and life insurance have some protection, but it depends on the state. Listing all assets is key to building a strong estate plan. Crypto is showing up more in estate planning. It requires special steps to protect and transfer securely.

The Army physical training test has long been a measure of a soldier's fitness for duty and for combat. For decades it's been used as the benchmark upon which all other physical fitness has been evaluated. And for decades it has been hotly debated, modified and enhanced to best represent the current mission of the US Army. SGM Chris Mullinax has been charged with developing the Army Fitness Test; the newest version of the PT test that now replaces the Army Combat Fitness Test and its predecessor, the Army Physical Fitness Test. From the Pentagon's US Army Broadcasting Studio, and with a cameo from Sergeant Major of the Army Mike Weimer, Fran Racioppi sat down with SGM Mullinax to breakdown the changes in the test, why combat MOS's are being held to different sex-neutral standards, and how the grading scale is designed to enhance and enforce a standard that ensures warfighting is at the forefront of every soldier's fitness. As a career 75th Ranger Regiment leader, SGM Mullinax also shares why America's national security is reliant on Rangers, and why Ranger School remains the premier leadership standard in the military. Watch, listen or read our conversation as SMA Weimer updates us on the Army's Blue Book and how enforcing the fitness standard is increasing Army readiness.

Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar dive into the importance of doctrine in the Christian life, challenging the idea that doctrine is cold or unnecessary. They emphasize that doctrine isn't exclusive to Christianity—everyone has a belief system, even atheists. As soon as you begin to answer questions about who Jesus is, you're entering doctrinal territory. Christians are called to meditate on the Word of God because without sound doctrine, it's easy to believe a lie. The guys talk about how many believers avoid doctrine due to a misunderstanding of the gospel. When you understand the gospel as adoption into God's family, gratitude drives you to know your Savior more. There's no divide between deep love for God and sound theology. Doctrine is rooted in theology, which is the knowledge of God—and you can't love someone you don't know. Each truth learned about God is another reason to love Him. Mark reminds us that good doctrine leads to doxology—right worship. The way you live spiritually and physically will catch up with you, and without sound doctrine, decisions lack a foundation. Discernment is knowing the difference between right and almost right, which can be the difference between truth and deception. As Ray mentions, a sign of the end times is people turning from sound doctrine to what suits their desires, following prosperity preachers who don't teach the true gospel.Church history also reminds us of the weight of doctrine—people have died for it. While unity is important, the truth should never be sacrificed. Unsound doctrine often stems from a lack of seriousness about sin. The guys discuss how peace should be pursued where possible, but not at the expense of truth. Essential doctrines—like the authority of Scripture, the nature of God, the Trinity, the person and work of Jesus, salvation, the Holy Spirit, the church, and Christ's return—are non-negotiable. Secondary issues, though important, are not hills to die on.The group also warns against extremes—those who read only the Bible and reject all theological resources, and those who rely solely on commentaries without reading Scripture. Doctrine should be both understood and lived out. Truths like the doctrine of creation remind us we are made in God's image, and eschatology offers comfort in a chaotic world. When confronting false doctrine, we must do so with humility, remembering Philippians 2 and esteeming others higher than ourselves. Doctrine isn't just information—it's transformation, guiding how we live, worship, and walk with Christ daily.Send us a textThanks for listening!
