Her work has been featured in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and she earned a deal with Mark Cuban on Shark Tank. Notes: Someone asked Charlie Munger… How do I get a great wife? Deserve one. The best way to find a good spouse is to deserve one, he often said. In business, this translates to working hard and behaving with integrity consistently over time. “To get what you want, you have to deserve what you want.” What is the #1 reason you don't get a second date? You talk about yourself too much.  When you go out to eat with someone, what percentage of the time are you talking? Aim to talk 30% and listen 70%. The reason we don't get the second date or the follow-up meeting with the prospect is because we are talking too much. Pull conversational threads: Avoid rapid-fire questioning by following up on answers with related questions. Share brief personal connections to create dialogue rather than interrogation. "You want to pull the conversational thread... ask a follow-up question about that same thing. That's where you can start having a conversation." Marketing your trajectory matters: People want to know you're going places. Share your goals, dreams, and aspirations authentically to demonstrate upward momentum. "You want to find the balance of sharing things about yourself that indicate you are on an upward trajectory... from a place of getting to know one another." Nice guys need boundaries: Being overly accommodating to people you barely know signals weakness. Hold boundaries and don't put others before yourself too quickly. "The general problem with the nice guy is he's putting other people before himself, including people he doesn't know very well." Confidence must be genuine: Authentic confidence comes from actually becoming confident through mastery, not just faking body language. Get genuinely good at something. "You have to become that... get really good at something... picking something in your life and getting really good at it is gonna help you build confidence." Don't rush to the close: Whether in dating or sales, focus on building connection and trust before asking for commitment. The close is the period at the end of a long sentence. "If you approach a woman or you approach a deal and you're just trying to get to the final step... you're going to rush through a lot of the important and essential steps." High-value people are in demand: Present yourself as someone others want to be around. People are naturally drawn to those who appear sought-after by others. "We want the thing that's in demand. We want the thing that other humans recognize as high value." Genuine curiosity creates connection: Being authentically interested in others' experiences is a powerful form of respect and love. Ask questions that take conversations deeper. "Your underlying emotion is important... becoming a genuinely curious person who is interested in meeting another human." Physical fitness affects confidence: Looking and feeling good about yourself impacts how you show up in every interaction. Invest in your physical health. "You gotta feel good about how you look... who wants to partner up with a slug? Nobody." "You should always be dating your partner, whether it's your first date, your 40th date, or you've been married for 40 years."' "The close is the period at the end of a very long sentence." "Deserve one." - Charlie Munger's advice on getting a great spouse Women want 3 things - social status, to be desired, flirty/fun… They want an optimist. If things aren't going well, look in the mirror. Take accountability. Her Twitter profile picture. Show the whites of your eyes. Smile. She has two tattoos. Omega is her middle name. Cactus for Tucson, AZ. How to build genuine confidence? Get good at something. Become an expert. Work really really hard. Be in great physical shape. It's hard to be confident if you don't like how you look. Sounds harsh, but it's true. Confidence comes from evidence. Create some evidence for youself by consistently working hard and getting great at something. That confidence will ooze out of you wherever you go. Shark Tank. Scary, anxious, nervous. Did a deal with Mark Cuban. Advice - If you're building a business, listen to what your customers want. What does your ideal client want? Build that.

Stop Falling For The Hype... It's an Illusion

This episode is part of Body Relationship Month — our special July series revisiting some of the most-loved episodes to help you heal your relationship with your body. If you want more self-worth or confidence, you have to give it to yourself. Stop making it contingent on a smaller body. The more we tie our self-worth to our body, the more uncomfortable we feel in our own skin. Instead of using food and exercise to meet our needs and help us feel our best, we end up using them as tools to control our body and our value. Any unwanted number on the scale can trigger a collapse in self-worth. To solve this, you have to separate your body from your body image — and start working on the latter. In this episode — “How to Handle Being Uncomfortable in Your Own Skin” — you'll learn:

Can you be smart and still fail in relationships, leadership, or life? In this episode, Kevin and Alan unpack why emotional intelligence (EQ) is just as critical as IQ, especially for high performers. Through personal stories, sharp insights, and a few laughs, they explore what EQ really means, how it shows up in daily life, and why it's often the missing link between talent and true success. Whether you struggle with connection or want to strengthen your impact, this conversation will challenge your growth in all the right ways.Free 30-minute Business Breakthrough Session with Alan -https://calendly.com/alanlazaros/30-minute-free-breakthrough-session?month=2025-04Free 30-Minute Podcast Breakthrough Session with Kevin -https://calendly.com/kevinpalmieri/free-30-minute-podcast-breakthrough-session-with-kevin_____________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

Episode DescriptionIn this electrifying episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times, Chris Schembra sits down with transformational speaker, coach, and author Juan Bendana, whose new book Confident by Choice is poised to reshape how we think about courage, action, and self-belief.This conversation dives deep into a liberating truth: confidence isn't a fixed trait—it's a daily decision. Together, Chris and Juan unpack the Confidence Cycle, a four-part science-backed framework (Micro Energy → Micro Courage → Micro Action → Micro Proof) designed to help everyday people break through fear and build an inspired life—one step at a time.But this episode is more than a framework. It's a heart-to-heart about mentorship, identity, failure, and the beauty of baby steps. Juan opens up about battling binge eating, hitting rock bottom, and how a good friend's invitation to California helped him reset his entire life. From the weight of imposter syndrome to the surprising science behind confidence and Olympic achievement, Juan reminds us that we are all capable of change—especially when we stop trying to get it perfect and start moving with purpose.If you've ever felt stuck, scared, or unsure where to begin, this episode is your signal to start. Listen in, take a breath, borrow some belief, and get ready to build the life you know is waiting for you. 10 Quotes from the Episode:“Confidence is not the absence of self-doubt. It's the willingness to act anyway.” – Juan Bendana “The way out is through. And the way through is trust.” – Chris Schembra “Confident people spend more time with self-doubt than less confident people. They just have a better relationship with it.” – Juan Bendana “When something bad happens, most people ask, ‘What's wrong with me?' Confident people ask, ‘What do I do next?'” – Juan Bendana “Energy is the spark. Courage is the ignition. Action is the engine. Proof is the fuel.” – Chris Schembra “You can borrow someone else's confidence. Just try on their life like it's a fresh pair of Jordans.” – Juan Bendana “You wouldn't worry so much about what others think of you if you realized how seldom they do.” – Eleanor Roosevelt (quoted by Juan) “The people in your life need you more than you think. Build your confidence, then give it away.” – Juan Bendana “Olympians aren't born more confident. They just commit to small steps over time.” – Chris Schembra “I'm not there… yet. That single word creates space for growth, grace, and transformation.” – Juan Bendana 10 Key Takeaways:Confidence is a process, not a personality trait. It's something we build through micro decisions, not something we're born with or without. Micro Energy is the foundation. Whether it's rest, excitement, curiosity, or joy—building momentum starts with finding even the smallest spark. Micro Courage means choosing discomfort on purpose. Confidence grows when we lean into fear, not when we avoid it. Micro Action is where transformation begins. Even walking to the gym without going inside can be a powerful first step. Micro Proof is confidence in motion. Success and failure both offer evidence that we're capable of growth. You don't have to do it alone. Mentorship, community, and borrowed belief are part of the journey. Failure builds confidence when it's reframed. Trying and failing proves you had the courage to show up, and that's enough. Imposter syndrome is a sign of growth. It shows you're operating at your edge, where confidence can be forged. Language matters. Swapping “I can't” for “I can't… yet” changes fixed mindsets into growth mindsets. Confidence creates identity shifts. When you accumulate enough proof, you don't just act differently—you become someone new. Suggested Follow-Up Actions for Listeners:Pre-order Juan's book Confident by Choice (link in show notes)—and send it to someone who needs a boost of belief. Do one micro action today toward a goal you've been putting off—send the email, take the walk, make the ask. Reflect and journal: Where in your life are you telling yourself "I'm not enough"? Rewrite that story with "...yet." Send a voice note to a friend or team member with words of confidence. “You're amazing. I'm glad you're here.” Reach out to Juan on LinkedIn and say “You're welcome”—as a callback to the moment he thanked all the strivers listening. Episode Links:

Are you facing challenges in your life? Maybe they seem insurmountable. Please consider the story of David and Goliath. It is as true today as it was then. 

Confidence might not be the first skill that comes to mind in accounting, but it could be the most powerful one. In this episode, Nicole Kehl sits down with CPA MOMS founder Mayumi Young to explore the quiet epidemic of self-doubt among women in the profession. They unpack how imposter syndrome, lack of representation, and perfectionism often hold women back—and what to do about it.

Psalm 27 is about being confident in your trust in God. But Psalms are also very honest and emotional and so in the midst of confidence there are questions and hopes and doubts to be expressed.

 Three weeks ago, we dug into the details of what pet ownership can cost over the lifetime of a pet; however, those totals didn't include what fines you might get if your pet decides to run wild! We look at some cases of animals on the loose in Atlanta, including pet baboons, buffaloes, and pythons. According to the 2025 Retirement Confidence Survey, 67% of American workers feel confident in their ability to have enough money to live comfortably throughout their retirement, but that confidence is shadowed by deep concerns over potential cuts to Social Security and Medicare. We also explore shifting retirement timelines, rising health care costs, and growing demand for emergency savings solutions within retirement plans. K.C. shares the ins and outs of planning retirement with a pension—and the risks that often go overlooked, such as the lack of inflation protection to reduced survivor benefits and long-term funding concerns.  We will also discuss why some employers are shifting toward hybrid models that include a 401(k) component to help fill the gaps. After the break, we unpack the jaw-dropping strategy known as “Buy, Borrow, Die”—a legal tax loophole the ultra-wealthy use to build massive fortunes, fund lavish lifestyles, and pass on wealth to heirs nearly tax-free. It's a masterclass in how America's richest sidestep income and estate taxes, exposing the widening gap between the tax code for the few—and the one for everyone else. Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C.

Do you want to get into Medical Device Sales?? If so → https://www.newtomedicaldevicesales.com/podcastIf you've made it to the final rounds of medical device sales interviews but keep falling short, this episode is for you. The three biggest mistakes that are quietly costing candidates the job, even those who look great on paper. From the way you show up to how you handle pushback, these are the things hiring managers notice but never tell you.Key Takeaways:Know the company before the interview. Do more than 10 minutes of research; check their products, mission, and who you're meeting with.Treat every call, coffee, or quick chat like it's an interview. Professionalism always counts. Show up in a suit and be ready.If you're told, “You don't have experience,” don't agree and fold. Instead, acknowledge the concern and reframe it with what you do bring to the table.Politeness isn't a winning strategy in this industry. Confidence wins. That means being clear, assertive, and not afraid of a little confrontation.Don't wait to be picked. Make companies want to pick you. Show them you've done the job before getting hired by taking ownership, following up, and standing out.If you're still not getting results after months, stop wasting time and start getting real help. Six months of “trying” doesn't beat someone who breaks in in six weeks with the right plan.

"It's okay if I do this for myself and it's okay that I do this to feel more confident."   "It's not just surgery, but being able to be there with them through that process."   "I want you to look like you, but better."   "How much of your face and how you present yourself to the world affects every area of your life."   "The bottom line should be that you shouldn't let the peanut gallery determine what you do."

A Fine Marriage, Now an Extraordinary Marriage: Bart's Story Bart is a Christian leader. He's the head of a childcare agency working with traumatized children and teens. He's been married for nearly 20 years and has four beautiful kids. And by his own admission? He was tired. Burned out. Irritable. Or, in his words—“crusty.” He wasn't in crisis. His marriage wasn't “on the rocks.” But it wasn't thriving either. And Bart knew something had to change. Christian Leaders Get Tired, Too—But That Doesn't Mean You Stay There One Saturday morning, Bart's wife tried to be playful with him—and he snapped. He didn't mean to. He was just worn out, juggling too many roles, feeling the pressure of leadership, family, and ministry. But his wife's gentle confrontation was a turning point. She didn't yell. She didn't threaten. She just called it what it was. And Bart—rather than shutting down—responded with humility and self-reflection. Not because he had to… But because he wanted to grow. Why “Good Enough” Marriage Isn't the Goal—Even for Ministry Leaders Bart described his marriage as “a 9 on a bad day.” No major fights. No betrayals. No one was threatening to leave. But deep down, he knew something wasn't right. The joy was fading. The connection was inconsistent. And his presence at home was… thin. Too many leaders settle for “fine” because there isn't obvious brokenness. But lack of crisis doesn't mean abundance of health. How One Christian Husband Reconnected With His Wife (and Kids) Bart didn't just learn new tools—he let God change his posture. He took a long, hard look at his own heart. He asked his wife, with full honesty, "Have I made intimacy feel transactional to you?" She said no. But Bart still made changes. He apologized for things from 20 years ago. He went to his kids, one by one, and asked for forgiveness for being emotionally absent. And the impact? Laughter returned. Confidence rose. Connection was rebuilt—at home, where it matters most. When You Lead at Work But Struggle at Home Bart's job requires emotional intelligence, patience, and deep listening. He gives that to kids, to employees, to families in crisis. But when he got home? He was depleted. He admits, “I was giving my best to strangers—not to the people who mattered most.” The CIRQUE listening framework helped him shift. Not just in knowledge—but in behavior. He started seeing his wife again. Not as someone who was “doing fine,” but as someone he was called to serve and cherish. Intention Without Action Won't Heal a Struggling Marriage One of the most striking moments in Bart's story? The first time he walked around the car to open the door for his wife in years. She paused. Surprised. It had been that long. But it wasn't about the door. It was about intentionality. About pursuit. About loving her like the daughter of the King she is. Christian Leaders: Your Marriage Doesn't Have to Be Broken to Be Better Friend, maybe your marriage isn't “bad.” Maybe no one knows how empty or tired you feel. Maybe your congregation thinks everything's fine. But you know. You know you're not showing up the way you want to. You know she deserves more. You know God is calling you deeper. Don't wait for a crisis to choose transformation. Don't wait for regret to become your motivation. Start now. Invest now. Lead your home like Jesus—by going first.

I celebrate the peace in my heart that has allowed me to be non-reactive and non-explosive in some very difficult and high-tension situations…I celebrate the new playful way that we are connecting in the bedroom…I celebrate that my wife is now telling my children that "Dad is different!"
