Erin's parents didn't put pressure on her to get perfect grades or go to Harvard; they wanted her to use her privilege and beautiful upbringing to make the world a better place. Youngest child syndrome makes you quick. Being the youngest of six, Erin learned to speak very quickly to get her thoughts in at the dinner table, and she was given unsolicited advice her whole childhood (which is why she loves giving advice now). Your siblings' sole job is to keep you grounded. Erin's parents are proud and supportive, but her siblings roast her and beat her down (all in good fun) to keep her as humble as possible. Success is attributed to a sense of humor. Erin gave career advice that was funny, and nobody had ever really seen that before. You don't get that unless you're the slightly bullied youngest of six kids your entire life. Rejection rage is a choice. At a Women in Film networking event, the head of the organization paused Erin's documentary trailer 30 seconds in and said, "You need to be more realistic." Erin went on to get a Pulitzer fellowship and premiered a feature documentary at 23 with international distribution. When you get a rejection, you can either let it beat you down or say, "I'm going to show them." "Tell me about yourself" is the world's worst interview question. It's lazy, not specific, and hard for the interviewee to truncate their entire life into 90 seconds. Use the past-present-future template: 1-2 sentences about your past, 1-2 about your present role, then future (where the interviewer's ears perk up), connecting to why you're applying for this specific role. Specificity is the magic word. When sending cold emails, the chances of getting a good response dramatically increase if you're specific: specific praise, specific question. Instead of "Can I pick your brain over coffee?" say, "I watched your video about X, and when you said Y, it piqued my curiosity." Higher quality questions get higher quality answers. This isn't just for podcasts or job interviews; it's a life skill. Good professional communication is like chess, not checkers. Most people just play checkers (you said this to me, I'm going to say this to you), but chess is thinking 10 steps ahead about what your end goal is and how this person falls along the path to that goal. Don't ask for a raise; ask for an adjustment to your compensation. Your job is transactional (you do work, they pay you). When you accepted your salary, you were doing X, Y, Z. Now you're doing X, Y, Z plus A, B, C. It's no longer an equal partnership, so you need an adjustment. It's not personal, it's just professional. Know your audience and your leverage.  Emotional regulation is powerful communication. If we just act impulsively and say what's on our mind all the time, it doesn't actually get you where you want to go. Always keep your desired outcome in mind. It's about checkmate. Don't just react, think about what the end goal is and how this conversation gets you there. Humanize people, don't make them wrong. That egotistical senior VP is probably actually really insecure about where they are in their career and wakes up every morning not knowing what they're doing. Put your ego to the side. Being a great communicator requires taking a break from thinking about yourself and thinking about what the other person's life is like and what their goals are. Align your goals with their goals. Think about how you can create that authentic relationship by figuring out how your goals align with what they're trying to accomplish. Shut up and listen. We do a little bit too much talking when we're trying to negotiate or strategize. It can be very beneficial to embrace the silence and practice active listening. Curiosity is an amazing way to show love. Being genuinely curious about a person makes them like you, and it becomes more natural the more you do it. Compliments have to be genuine and specific. People are way better at sniffing out fake compliments than you realize. If you can't find one thing you truly admire about someone, don't say anything. Don't make it transactional. When people ask, "How do I not make it feel like I'm using them?" Erin says, "Well, don't use them. Just be genuine." The most loving thing you can do is respect people's time. Meeting bloat has gotten really bad since the pandemic, and a lot of time is disrespected in meetings across the world. Maybe don't have the meeting. A lot of meetings are completely unnecessary, or at least the way they're set up, the people invited, or the way they're run are really inefficient. Only invite crucial people. Make sure that only the people who absolutely need to be there are invited to the meeting. Always have an agenda. At the beginning of every meeting, say "Here are the three things we're going to cover today, and here's the goal of this meeting." Put it in the calendar link with bullet points. Don't have brainstorming meetings. Have meetings with very tangible goals at the end, state them up front, and make sure that goal has been achieved by the end. Email subject lines are underutilized. Erin's dad's company would put tags like "request," "informational," or "command" on subject lines so you knew exactly what type of email it was and what was expected. The exercise of making a five-year plan changes your brain. Erin doesn't believe in sticking to a five-year plan, but the exercise of thinking about the future creates new neural pathways that change the way you think about yourself and your life. A happy life is an intentional life. The vast majority of people float through life and act very reactionary. Sitting down and thinking about what you actually want in five years is powerful self-care. Sit down with your partner and do this together. Before you get married, make five-year plans together. They might look really different (which is revealing) or really similar which doubles down on alignment. Create multiple five-year plans if you're young. If you don't know which path you're going to take, create five different scenarios for yourself and see which one energizes you most. Financial freedom is a goal worth stating. Erin wants to be financially free in the next five years, which allows her to pursue mission-driven work on her own terms. You're just another human trying to figure it out. Even though Erin wrote the book on workplace communication, she's still winging it every day just like everybody else. Combat the knowledge curse by staying connected to real people. When you're an expert in something, it's hard to imagine not being an expert. Erin moved back to Maryland suburbs to experience people working normal corporate jobs, DMs with people daily about their experiences, and gets on free calls just to listen. The data in newsletters tells a different story than people's actual experiences, so she stays grounded by hearing real anecdotes from IT workers in North Carolina or nurses in Kentucky. Set goals really high. Erin wants her startup to help 500,000 job seekers in a year, which is ambitious, but she doesn't care if she fails as long as she tries to reach it.

Think about a difficult conversation you need to have this week. Instead of just reacting to what they say, what's your desired outcome? What would "checkmate" look like, and how can you think 10 steps ahead to get there? Who in your life keeps you humble If no one does, how might you be losing perspective on yourself? What would it look like to invite that kind of honest feedback into your life? Erin recommends making a five-year plan, not to stick to it, but because the exercise creates new neural pathways. When's the last time you sat down and intentionally thought about what you want your life to look like in five years? What's stopping you from doing that this week?

In this episode of The Lucky Few Podcast, we continue our What I Wish I'd Known series by talking about inclusion — and being honest about how it actually feels.When we hear the word inclusion, we don't immediately feel hopeful. We feel heaviness. Process. Fight. Sometimes discouragement.We talk about why inclusion so often becomes a disability service instead of a true community responsibility. We wrestle with school settings, adult programs, housing, and the limited options available once our kids grow up. We name the exhaustion of always being the one advocating — and the toll it takes on our kids to keep showing up in spaces not built for them.At the center of this conversation is this truth:The existence of a person with Down syndrome in the world is their resistance.Our kids take up space. They walk into rooms. They show up in communities that weren't designed for them. That matters.Inclusion isn't a program to be applauded. It's a cultural shift. And while we may feel weary some days, we still believe our kids belong — not as a service, but as neighbors, coworkers, and friends.We see you doing the work. Take a breath if you need to. And keep going.Show NotesFor more thoughtful work on disability, community living, and person-centered inclusion, visit Open Future Learning: https://www.openfuturelearning.org/**Interested in diving deeper?We've talked about inclusion before — especially in the context of school, IEPs, and advocacy.

The Harvard Study of Adult Development, often referred to as the Grant Study, is widely recognized as the longest-running, in-depth scientific study of adult life ever conducted. I recently published an episode I did with the director, Robert Waldinger. The results of the study have now famously shown us that what most fulfills us in life is relationships. Of course not just any relationships, but the truly valuable and significant relationships of our lives. It's proven very difficult to have such relationships, if we can't effectively communicate with others. And by effectively communicate, we mean to actually connect in a meaningful way. So in this episode I bring you Renée Marino. Renée is a renowned Broadway star, singing, acting, and dancing in West Side Story, Pretty Woman, and Jersey Boys. Her lead role in Jersey Boys caught the eye of famed actor Clint Eastwood who took her from the stage and cast her for the lead female role in his film, Jersey Boys. Renée's livelihood is communicating. She must connect with and move the audience, and she's a master. Following Clint's film, Renée turned her attention to the professional and personal world and is showing us the heart and skill of real communication. The kind that does just what Renée does on stage, on film, and in her personal life...truly connects us with others in a meaningful way that moves them to engage with us. I connected with Renée so much I had her come back and co-host a bunch of episodes with me, we co-presented at a speaking event together, and became good friends. Renée has culminated her methodology of communicating in her book, Becoming a Master Communicator: Balancing New School Technology with Old School Simplicity, which you can get anywhere and just search for Renée Marino and you'll find her everywhere.

Three weeks of silence. No ransom. No demands. No proof of life. Nancy Guthrie's abductor has refused all communication since taking the 84-year-old woman—and that silence is the most revealing evidence we have.The ransom notes investigators received came from opportunists, not the actual perpetrator. Whoever has Nancy Guthrie has made no attempt to leverage her existence for anything at all. No engagement with law enforcement. No response to her family's televised pleas. Just silence.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers Live to break down what this means in real time. With over thirty years working with violent offenders, Scott examines the psychology of kidnappers who don't communicate, who take without demanding, who disappear without negotiation.In hostage situations, communication is currency. It's the mechanism perpetrators use to get what they want. When that mechanism goes unused, what does it tell us? Is this person hiding? Did they panic? Is the silence itself a form of control—maximizing the family's suffering by giving them nothing to hold onto?The Guthrie family has publicly offered to pay whatever is asked. They've begged for any sign their mother is alive. They've received nothing. What does that mean for this case? What does prolonged silence typically suggest about outcomes?Join us live as we unpack the behavioral evidence, examine what this silence reveals about the perpetrator's psychology, and discuss what the trajectory of this case might look like if the silence continues.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Incident Recap: On February 18, 2026, around 9:30 p.m., Grand Rapids Police Department (GRPD) officers attempted to stop Da'Quain Johnson (32, Black man) on a bicycle near Eastern Avenue SE, suspecting he was armed (he was a convicted felon on parole with a prior gun charge). Johnson fled into an apartment complex parking lot. Officers deployed a K-9, leading to a struggle on the ground. An officer fired 3 shots into Johnson while he was face-down (K-9 biting his arm/neck area). Johnson died early February 19 at a hospital.Two Videos & Conflicting Narratives:GRPD Bodycam/Dashcam Footage (released February 19–20): Shows chase, K-9 deployment, struggle. Officers yell "He's got a f***ing gun!" and claim Johnson pointed a firearm at an officer's face ("I saw the barrel pointed right at my face"). A handgun was recovered beneath Johnson; police say he resisted and posed imminent threat.Bystander Video (viral on social media, shared by activists and Commissioner Robert Womack): Shows Johnson face-down on the ground, hands possibly behind his back, K-9 still biting, officer firing from above. Family and community dispute police narrative, calling it an "execution" or "lynching"—mother Angelica Johnson said after viewing his body: "They shot him in the back of the head... the photos will speak for themselves." No gun clearly visible in bystander clip.Current Status: Four agencies investigating (GRPD internal, Michigan State Police, Kent County Prosecutor, possibly federal). No charges against officer yet (on leave). Community outrage growing—vigils, marches, press conferences demanding full footage, independent autopsy, accountability. Amnesty International USA called for truth/systemic change. Still local/regional (WOOD-TV, FOX 17, MLive, Michigan Advance)—no national pickup (CNN/FOX/CBS/NBC/GMA) as of now.Panel Angle: Disputing narratives, police use of force, K-9 tactics, racial justice—how this hits MC communities facing similar scrutiny.Woman Pleads Guilty to Drive-By Shooting at Hells Angels Clubhouse in EvelethIncident: On September 4, 2024, Adrien Marie Gunderson (40, Forbes, MN) fired multiple shots at the front door of the Hells Angels clubhouse in Eveleth, Minnesota (St. Louis County, Iron Range area). She got out of her vehicle, approached the door, and shot—charged with drive-by shooting toward an occupied building and unlawful possession of a firearm (felon).Plea & Outcome: On February 23–24, 2026, Gunderson pleaded guilty to felony drive-by shooting. Plea agreement allows her to argue for departure from guidelines (presumptive 50+ months prison due to history). Sentencing set for May 2026—faces up to 4 years or more. No injuries reported; motive unclear (possible dispute/personal grudge).Context: Highlights ongoing tensions targeting Hells Angels properties—rare for a woman perpetrator.UNBELIEVABLE! 1%ers Outcast, Hells Lovers & Sin City Party Together St. LouisEvent: A recent "all Black" or unity party in St. Louis, Missouri, brought together chapters of Outcast MC, Hells Lovers MC, and Sin City (likely Sin City Disciples or similar)—three 1%er clubs known for rivalries or territorial history.Details: Outcast held the east wall, Sin City the south, Hells Lovers the stage. Reports describe it as peaceful—peace, fun, love, no drama. Shared widely on biker pages (e.g., Black Dragon Biker Facebook, Biker Liberty) as "UNBELIEVABLE" unity amid MC chaos elsewhere.Significance: Rare cross-club gathering—highlights shifting alliances or respect in the scene. Ties into broader MC unity themes.MC Protocol: Stopping Brothers from Sabotaging Your Marriage/RelationshipCore Discussion: In MC culture, "brothers" can unintentionally (or intentionally) interfere in members' personal lives—e.g., encouraging wild behavior, late nights, or drama that strains marriages/old lady relationships.Protocol Tips:Set boundaries early: Communicate with your old lady and club about expectations (e.g., no solo partying, respect for committed status).Club support: Lean on trusted brothers for accountability (e.g., "call me out if I'm slipping").Old lady role: Many view old ladies as partners—protect the relationship as club priority.Consequences: Sabotage can lead to internal drama or expulsion if it harms brotherhood.Panel Angle: Real-talk on loyalty vs. personal life—how to balance club life without letting it wreck marriages.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dragon-s-lair-motorcycle-chaos--3267493/support.Sponsor the channel by signing up for our channel memberships.

He shares why visibility matters in the music classroom—not just for concert reminders, but for advocacy, relationship-building, and helping families truly understand the learning happening behind the fun. When used thoughtfully, simple digital tools can create a powerful window into your classroom and build trust before you ever need to have a hard conversation.But this conversation isn't just about what to use—it's about how to use it well. Bryson unpacks the importance of following district policies, communicating in equitable ways, and most importantly, setting clear boundaries so you're not available around the clock.

As parents, it's natural to look for answers when your child continues to struggle with regulation, sleep, energy, or emotional balance. Many families begin asking deeper questions: Is something happening inside my child's body? How do gut health and inflammation affect behavior and regulation? Are there additional supports beyond what we're already doing? In a recent episode of the Autism Family Resource Podcast, we explored these questions with Dr. Jeffrey Knight, focusing on how the body, gut, and nervous system are deeply interconnected. Regulation Is More Than Behavior Regulation challenges are often viewed through a behavioral lens alone. While strategies and therapies are incredibly important, they are just one part of the picture. A child's nervous system is influenced by many internal factors, including inflammation, digestion, sleep quality, and overall physical stress on the body. When the body is under stress, the nervous system may stay in a heightened state, making regulation more difficult despite a child's best efforts. The Gut–Brain Connection Research continues to highlight the strong relationship between the gut and the brain. Gut health can influence mood, attention, sleep, and overall regulation. Inflammation in the body may also impact how efficiently the nervous system functions. This doesn't mean there is one single cause or solution. Rather, it encourages families to look at regulation through a whole-body lens. Supplements, Detox Support, and Whole-Body Awareness During the conversation, we discussed how supplements and detox support may play a role for some children when carefully considered and guided by a qualified professional. The goal is not to chase trends or quick fixes, but to understand: What questions to ask When additional supports might be appropriate How to approach integrative care safely Every child is different, and what works for one family may not be right for another. Working With the Right Professionals Matters Exploring whole-body supports should always be done thoughtfully and collaboratively. Families benefit most when working with professionals who: Understand neurodiversity Respect the child as a whole person Consider medical history, sensory needs, and nervous system regulation Communicate clearly and transparently How Pure Hearts Therapy Supports Families At Pure Hearts Therapy, we believe in supporting children and families beyond a single approach. Our neurodiversity-affirming services focus on connection, regulation, and meaningful participation in everyday life. We also believe parents deserve clear, grounded information so they can make confident decisions for their families. Take the Next Step If this conversation sparked new questions or gave you language for things you've been noticing, you're not alone.

Today, I'm joined by Karen Canham—founder of Karen Ann Wellness and a coach who works with founders, high performers, and teams operating in high-pressure environments. Karen's work is all about expanding capacity—helping people understand how nervous system regulation shapes the way we communicate, lead, handle conflict, and show up authentically at work. In this episode, Karen and I explore what it really means to communicate from a regulated state, why so many people cycle between “go-go-go” and shutdown, and how that pattern contributes to miscommunication and burnout. Karen brings a grounded, human approach to communication that connects performance, leadership, and well-being in a way that feels both actionable and refreshing. Let's dive in.

Episode Info On the back of getting some less-than-great sales outreach on LinkedIn, I thought it would be a great moment to share some more sales advice for startup founders and service or solution providers out there looking to sell into or partner with insurers. This is a follow up the episode I did in Season 7 on the subject, which you can check out at https://future-of-insurance.com/podcast/vendoradvice/.  I'll also be taking a few weeks off from posting new episodes of the show, which makes a great chance for you to catch up on the back catalogue of episodes from all 7.5 seasons (there are 190 episodes of this show so far!). Also, if you're interested in claims or the complexities of coverage discussed in a really entertaining and educational format, check out What's The Scenario from PLRB, available on PLRB's website (membership required), or free for anyone on all the top podcasting platforms and in video format on YouTube. Episode Overview: Key Principles: Industry Foundation: Insurance is a caring, people-driven industry. Genuine intent to help is crucial. Clarity Over Buzzwords: Avoid vague language and jargon ("next generation solutions," "AI"). Be specific about the problem you solve and your solution. Respect Time: Generic, time-wasting outreach is detrimental. Be upfront, honest, and clear. Authenticity Wins: Genuine, dedicated individuals who focus on solving real problems build impactful businesses. Relationship Driven: Success in insurance relies on trust and authentic connections. Actionable Advice for Sellers: Clearly state the problem you solve and your solution. Be direct and avoid unnecessary buzzwords. Communicate genuinely and respectfully. Understand your audience's needs. This episode is brought to you by The Future of Insurance book series (future-of-insurance.com) from Bryan Falchuk.

John McKee delivers the February 2026 Outreach Israel News update. What important lessons are there from Ephesians 4:29? How many of us heard this passage quoted so many times, that we often fail to sort through its significance—especially for a faith community like ours, which faces so many difficulties?

EPs can feel overwhelming, emotional, and complicated—and that's because they are.In this episode of The Lucky Few Podcast, we kick off our new season, What I Wish I'd Known About…, by talking about IEPs—what we wish we understood from the very beginning, and what we've learned the hard way.Fresh off a multi-hour meeting, we share honestly about the exhaustion, the tension, and the “us vs. them” dynamic that can creep in. We unpack how evaluations drive goals, how goals drive placement, and why learning the language of the IEP changes everything. We talk about inclusion, evolving expectations, and what it looks like to follow our child's lead as they grow.Most importantly, we remind ourselves—and you—of this:Our kids are not problems to fix.The IEP exists to serve them.Whether this is your first meeting or your fifteenth, we hope this conversation helps you feel more steady, more informed, and less alone.SHOW NOTES:For more practical guidance, we've learned a lot from Ashley Barlow and her work at Ashley Barlow Co.. She offers clear, actionable resources to help you navigate IEPs, strengthen your advocacy skills, and understand your rights—all in one place.Check out more IEP Episodes:78.

theion is developing lithium-sulfur battery technology targeting 500 watt hours per kilogram in their first commercial product—nearly double today's lithium-ion cells at 270-300 Wh/kg—with an ultimate roadmap to 1,000 Wh/kg. By replacing nickel-manganese-cobalt cathodes with crystalline sulfur and graphite anodes with lithium metal, theion aims to deliver three times the energy density at one-third the cost and CO2 footprint of current batteries. In this episode of BUILDERS, we sat down with Dr. Ulrich Ehmes, CEO of theion, to discuss how a production-focused CEO is navigating the journey from TRL 3-4 to pilot line, why they're targeting electric aviation first, and how a 12-year battery industry veteran evaluates what actually constitutes a materials breakthrough. Topics Discussed: Why sulfur cathodes and lithium metal anodes enable the performance jump beyond lithium-ion The critical importance of monoclinic gamma crystalline structure for cycle life  Navigating the transition from coin cells to pouch cells to industrialization  Strategic decision-making on initial market entry for deep tech hardware  Why process innovation in mixing and coating is required to unlock sulfur's full potential  Building a China-independent supply chain using oil refining waste  The 3-year development reality driven by cycling test requirements GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Price your technology against value creation, not cost savings alone: Ulrich's market strategy centers on "markets which will pay a lot of money for super lightweight batteries"—specifically aviation applications where weight reduction directly enables business model viability. For eVTOLs, the constraint isn't battery cost but energy density; current batteries make many routes economically impossible. This is fundamentally different from cost-driven markets like consumer EVs where incremental weight savings have marginal value. Deep tech founders should map which customer segments face hard physical constraints that only your technology solves versus those seeking incremental optimization. The former will pay 3-5x premiums; the latter will demand cost parity from day one. Match CEO background to the company's primary risk: Ulrich led Leica's 600-person Portugal production facility for a decade before entering batteries, and he frames his value as "I'm a production guy...for me it's very important not to produce only one battery cell in a lab, but millions of cells in highest quality." For a battery company at TRL 3-4 moving toward industrialization, the existential risk isn't the science—it's whether you can manufacture at quality and yield. Many deep tech companies fail because PhD founders remain CEOs through manufacturing scale-up. Ulrich's hire signals that theion's board correctly diagnosed their de-risking sequence. Founders should brutally assess what will kill the company in the next 24 months and ensure the CEO's pattern recognition matches that failure mode. Seek investors where your technology is infrastructure for their thesis: theion's primary investor is "heavily invested in eVTOLs," making theion's battery technology directly relevant to multiple portfolio companies facing the same energy density constraint. This creates structural alignment on timeline expectations—eVTOL companies won't reach commercial scale before 2027-2028 anyway, matching theion's development cycle. The investor understands that battery development "takes time because always when you change a parameter, you have to cycle again to test the cells." This is radically different from a generalist VC expecting SaaS-like iteration speeds. Hardware founders should explicitly map how their technology unblocks other portfolio companies and use this to negotiate patient capital terms and strategic customer introductions. Use competitive landscape size as legitimacy signal, not differentiation: When pressed on disrupting incumbents, Ulrich immediately countered: "We are not the only company working on sulfur and this is good...there are 28 other companies out there." He then differentiated on "monoclinic gamma crystalline structure" validated by Drexel University achieving 4,000+ cycles. This is sophisticated category positioning: the 28 competitors validate that lithium-sulfur is a credible next-generation technology, while the specific crystalline approach provides technical differentiation for those who understand the chemistry. Founders should resist the urge to claim they're the only ones solving a problem in nascent categories—it raises "why hasn't anyone else tried this?" concerns. Instead, position within an emerging category and differentiate on technical approach. Communicate realistic timelines as competence signaling, not weakness: Ulrich states plainly that commercial availability is "at least the next three years" and frames this as doing "first things first and first things right." For sophisticated buyers in aviation and aerospace, compressed timelines signal naivety about certification requirements, manufacturing validation, and qualification testing. A battery company claiming 12-month commercialization would lose credibility with Boeing or Joby Aviation procurement teams who understand the actual development cycles. Deep tech founders should recognize that customer segments accustomed to long development cycles (aerospace, automotive, medical devices) interpret realistic timelines as domain expertise, while consumer/software buyers may interpret them as lack of urgency. Match timeline communication to buyer sophistication. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Here's the hard truth:Silence speaks.And in multifamily, it says the wrong thing—every time.In today's Multifamily Collective entry, Mike Brewer puts the spotlight on a common leadership blind spot: not communicating.When leaders go quiet, teams, residents, and owners don't stay calm.They fill in the blanks.They write scripts in their minds.And those scripts? Usually worse than reality.

“If I don't feel bad, I must be fine.”That belief quietly undermines retention, reactivations, and proactive care.In this episode of Under the Influence, Martin unpacks one deceptively simple question that changes everything:“Why now?”When someone has had a problem for weeks… months… sometimes years…Why now?Used well, this question:• Reveals what actually motivated them to act• Exposes their lifestyle values (what they have to do, love to do, or identify with)• Shows you their threshold for action• Gives you the language to communicate prevention and performance in a way that feels personally relevantMartin also breaks down:– Why most patients are “copers” who minimize the size of their problem– How unpacking questions help resize it– Why pacing and tone matter more than the words themselves– How to bridge from pain to prevention to performance without sounding preachyThis isn't about being more persuasive.It's about being more precise.Ask better questions.Understand deeper motivations.Communicate chiropractic in a way that lands.Check out the Retention Recipe https://insideoutpractices.thinkific.com/courses/retention-recipe-2-0To learn more about Aligned Practicehttps://insideoutpractices.thinkific.com/products/communities/aligned-practiceTo learn more about Reactivate to Accelerate https://insideoutpractices.thinkific.com/courses/reactivateLearn more about Daily Visit Communication 2.0https://insideoutpractices.thinkific.com/courses/daily-visitEmail me - martin@insideoutpractices.com

Adultery is devastating and affects not just the couple involved but the entire family. How can you heal after such a deep hurt? How can you trust your spouse again? And if you're the offender, can your spouse forgive you? “The road to restoration with your spouse is never guaranteed, but God's hope is,” Robert Jones reminds us. Former pastor and decades-long counselor, Robert is the author of My Spouse Was Unfaithful: Finding Strength in God's Presence. His book helps readers understand their suffering and guard against bitterness and a vengeful spirit, while pointing them to their truest hope: God alone. Robert addresses both the offender and the victim in cases of adultery, providing tips on how to communicate after suffering such massive trauma and how to walk through the healing process.TAKEAWAYSAfter infidelity, couples should individually put their focus on Christ to begin the restoration process and not immediately talk to each otherThe church should be involved in bringing a resolution when dealing with cases such as infidelityPsalm 46:1 reminds those who are suffering that God is a refuge and help in all conflicts and crisesAdultery is a very serious sin: it's a sin against one's own body, breaking of the marriage covenant, and sinning against God

Ever had your brain just go blank at the worst possible moment? You can see where you need to go, but you have no idea how to get there. I had this happen at 3,000 feet while flying my daughter home from college. The airport was right in front of me, but I was completely disoriented. Terrifying. What I did next saved the day. In this episode, I share the three-rule framework pilots use in moments of confusion that works just as well when your brain quits on Tuesday afternoon. Ready to stay steady when everything feels uncertain? Featured Story I was flying my Cessna to pick up my daughter from the University of Florida. Clear day, smooth air, nothing special. About 15 minutes from landing, the heat and drone had me snoozing. Then suddenly, I had this overwhelming sensation that I had no idea where I was. The airport was right in front of me, but I couldn't figure out how to get lined up. Panic kicked in. I was minutes from controlled airspace and hadn't called the tower. I could have faked it, but instead I keyed the mic: I'm confused and need help. Within minutes, they vectored me to a perfect final. Worst landing ever, but I got it stopped. Not bad for a lost pilot. Important Points When your brain goes blank and you feel disoriented, stabilize first before making any dramatic decisions or changes. Small confusion turns into a catastrophe when people stop flying the airplane, spiral, overreact, or pretend they're fine. Procedure beats panic every time—training kicks in when thinking shuts down and your brain switches to threat mode. Memorable Quotes "Just because you feel lost doesn't mean you are. Sometimes you're just a little south of the field you're looking for." "Aviate, navigate, communicate. Fly steady, get clear, speak up early. That's how you land the plane in daily life too." "Ask for help before it becomes an emergency. Don't wait until it's a catastrophe to open your mouth and communicate." Scott's Three-Step Approach Aviate first—stabilize your behavior and don't make dramatic decisions that could make your situation even worse. Navigate second—once you're stable and nothing's getting worse, get clear on where you are and the path forward. Communicate third—ask for help early before it becomes an emergency, whether with clients, vendors, or your spouse.

Why does sex often become uncomfortable, pressured, or disconnected in midlife — even in loving relationships?Book a Discovery Call for Relationship Renovation CoachingIn this episode, EJ and Tarah are joined by Dr. Maria Sophocles, board-certified gynecologist and national menopause expert, to explore what she calls The Bedroom Gap — the growing difference in expectations, desire, and physical experience that many couples face as they age.They discuss why so many women feel broken or ashamed when intimacy changes, why couples rarely talk openly about it, and how hormonal shifts, cultural messaging, and outdated definitions of sex create disconnection.Dr. Sophocles shares three essential steps to closing the gap:• Know thyself — understanding your body, hormones, and pleasure• Communicate — removing shame and learning to talk honestly about sex• Redefine sex — shifting from performance and obligation to connection and pleasureYou will also hear about:• How perimenopause and menopause impact desire and comfort• Why pain during sex often leads to avoidance and fear• How shame silently fuels disconnection• Why redefining sex beyond penetration changes everything• The difference between obligation-based sex and connection-based intimacy• How couples can rebuild trust after long periods of distanceThis episode is especially helpful if:• Intimacy feels tense, painful, or avoided• One partner feels rejected while the other feels pressured• Hormonal changes have shifted desire• You miss feeling close but do not know how to start again• Shame makes it hard to talk about sexThis is an honest, hopeful conversation about sexual health, emotional safety, and rediscovering pleasure in long-term relationships.Dr. Sophocles links below: The Bedroom Gap: Rewrite the Rules and Roles of Sex in Midlifehttps://mariasophoclesmd.com/Learn More About Relationship RenovationOrder Relationship Renovation at Home Manual from AmazonJoin Our Patreon CommunitySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/he-said-she-said/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

Sadly I cannot respond directly to your text, so please Email me!On this one I break down how to communicate about FLR, kink, power exchange, and sexual dynamics in a way that builds connection instead of fear, pressure, or misunderstanding. Whether you're curious about FLR, chastity, BDSM, or simply want to have healthier conversations with your partner, this episode is your starting point.I talk about how to bring up difficult topics, why listening matters more than convincing, how body language and timing affect communication, and why taking sex out of the conversation at first can actually strengthen intimacy. I also explain how skills learned in the kink and FLR communities — consent, boundaries, negotiation, and emotional awareness — apply directly to everyday life, parenting, work, and family relationships.This episode isn't about sex acts. It's about connection, consent, respect, and emotional safety — and why communication is the foundation of every healthy relationship.Topics CoveredHow to communicate about FLR and kink with your partnerTalking about power exchange without pressure or fearWhy listening is more important than speakingActive listening, body language, and emotional awarenessTaking sex out of the conversation to build trustWhy consent and boundaries strengthen relationshipsHow FLR communication skills apply to real lifeBreaking generational shame around sex and intimacyWhy kink is not abuse — and what consent actually meansHow relationships evolve over time through honest communicationKey TakeawayHealthy Female-Led Relationships — and healthy marriages in general — are built on communication, consent, patience, and trust, not sex acts, labels, or performance.Subscribe to Krystine's FLR Podcast for real-life conversations about Female-Led Relationships, communication, consent, and emotional connection — beyond fantasy and judgment.Support the showHelp Support The Show? https://www.krystinekellogg.com/ Email Me!

Seasonal slowdowns can shake even the most well-run therapy practices—especially group practices navigating payroll, profit, and growth at the same time. This week, I sat down with Stef Iverson and Lucinda Bibbs, business partners and recent graduates of Money Skills for Group Practice Owners, to talk through what it really looks like to manage cash flow during a summer slump while still honoring long-term vision, wellness, and expansion.“I think it's just that the clarity and the reassurance, right? That we're on the right track...knowing the numbers has really helped us make non-emotional decisions. And just having clarity on what's actually on the paper and what are those numbers actually telling us? They're telling us a story and they're holding up a mirror and they're allowing us to make changes and pivots as we, as we need to." - Stefanie IversonStef and Lucinda came into this conversation fresh off their first slower season since implementing Profit First—and instead of panic, they brought curiosity. We talked through how their profit account temporarily buffered operating expenses, what that revealed about their numbers, and how to proactively plan for next summer so slow seasons don't feel scary or reactive.Using Financial Clarity to Stay Grounded During Seasonal Revenue DipsWhat stood out most to me was how empowering it can be to replace “scrambling” with structure.

"There's a world behind the world."  Strong societies depend on people willing to think deeply, speak clearly, and defend foundational principles even when it comes at a cost. When ideas are reduced to soundbites and outrage cycles, truth loses depth, history gets flattened, and moral clarity fades. The ability to connect reason with emotion, intellect with courage, becomes essential for preserving liberty and meaningful public discourse.  Dinesh D'Souza reflects on the erosion of serious intellectual debate, the challenges of cultural censorship, and why storytelling—especially through film—remains a powerful tool for shaping ideas. He explains how history, faith, and politics intersect, why surface-level commentary weakens public understanding, and how conviction-driven thinkers can still influence culture despite institutional resistance.  Dinesh is an author, filmmaker, and conviction-based public intellectual who has spent his career defending the principles of liberty and free societies. A former Reagan White House policy analyst, he has worked with leading research institutions including the American Enterprise Institute and the Hoover Institution at Stanford. He is the author of more than a dozen books and the creator of multiple high-impact documentary films examining American history, culture, and politics. His work is known for challenging prevailing narratives while advocating for the freedoms that make personal and national flourishing possible, including his latest film, The Dragon's Prophecy.   Expert action steps:  Rebuild deep thinking habits by reading physical books slowly and reflectively.  Communicate ideas by engaging both logic and emotion, not data alone.  Develop spiritual awareness to better understand human conflict and motivation.  Learn more & connect:  Dinesh has a huge online presence.  His latest film, The Dragon's Prophecy: https://thedragonsprophecyfilm.com/  X: https://x.com/DineshDSouza  IG: https://www.instagram.com/dineshjdsouza/  FB: https://www.facebook.com/DSouzaDinesh  YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8GAOCAJxBL4bExaUCvwL4Q  https://conservativebrief.com/  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practice to the next level.

Body image isn't just “how you look”—it's how you feel in your body, and that inner experience can quietly shape conflict, closeness, sex, and day-to-day connection in a relationship. Today, we sit down with Samantha Jerome (registered dietitian nutritionist + certified diabetes educator) reframes “health” as a whole-person process—food, movement, sleep, stress, relationships, creativity—and warns that extreme New Year “reset” mindsets often turn into control, shame, and burnout. The episode emphasizes curiosity, small sustainable shifts, supportive environments, and clearer partner communication so body-image struggles don't hijack time, mental space, or intimacy.

How “spaciousness” helps teams move beyond busywork — and build the conditions for honest conversation.“We're just so busy right now” is one of the most common reasons cultures don't change — and it's exactly what Megan Reitz set out to understand. In her research, she describes two modes of attention at work: doing mode, where focus narrows to tasks, control, and quick progress, and spacious mode, where attention expands, insight emerges, and real connection becomes possible.Reitz is a leadership researcher whose work explores how people speak up, listen well, and create environments where others can be heard — because, as she puts it, “how you show up affects the voices of the people around you.” When teams are anxious or rushed, attention tightens and listening gets shallow; when there's more safety and space, people can pause, widen their perspective, and make better choices together.In this Quick Thinks episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Reitz and host Matt Abrahams discuss why organizations get stuck in doing mode and what it takes to build spacious agility. They share practical ways to name spaciousness, strengthen psychological safety, introduce healthy dissonance (even through assigned roles like devil's advocate), and respond in ways that keep people speaking up — not shutting down.Episode Reference Links:Megan ReitzMegan's Book: Speak Out, Listen UpEp.132 Lean Into Failure: How to Make Mistakes That WorkEp.148 Conviction and Compassion: How to Have Hard Conversations Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:10) - Doing Mode vs. Spacious Mode (02:13) - Building Agility Between Modes (12:56) - Creating Psychological Safety (19:14) - Conclusion  ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

Ep 149. Have you ever met someone and instantly felt in their energy a sense that they were meant to be in your life? Sometimes, we experience this inner knowing not just with people, but with certain places, career paths, or experiences that feel undeniably aligned. What is this intuitive sense, and how can we learn to recognize and become in conversation with it? In this episode, Christine Lang, medical intuitive and author, explains how our spirit communicates through the body. She breaks down the differences between messages from the ego mind vs. from the spirit, and why we are naturally drawn toward our spirit's truth even when it's uncomfortable or inconvenient. Christine shares her own transition from attorney to medical intuitive, revealing how chronic symptoms can be messages, and how she developed her gift to identify the physical markers of energetic misalignment. This is one of those episodes that honestly only feels possible because of the amazing community here, allowing us to continue to question, evolve, and explore so many facets of this human experience.    HERE'S THE JUICE: How physical symptoms can be expressions of unspoken truths and emotional silencing Christine's personal journey, going from attorney to spiritual healer, and how her body signaled misalignment in her career, leading her to her current practice   What is clairaudience?  Learning the difference between your ego voice and the spirit voice  Breaking down why the ego thrives on a lack of awareness and how to become the observer in your own life Do our souls choose certain experiences for purposes of soul growth?
