Mike and Kenny have a conversation about the odds for the Red Wings to make the playoffs and whether they're both confident they will do that.

Do you ever replay conversations in your mind… wondering if you said the wrong thing or made the wrong decision? Overthinking and anxious thoughts can quietly steal your peace — causing your mind to spiral into worry, analysis, and trying to control outcomes that actually belong to God. Many Christian women struggle with this. We want to make the right decisions. We want to honor God. We want to steward our lives well. But when our minds start trying to carry things God never asked us to carry, our thoughts can quickly become exhausting. In this episode of the Strong. Confident. His. Podcast, I'm sharing what Scripture teaches about overthinking, anxious thoughts, and how to renew your mind so you can return to God's peace. You'll learn why mental spirals happen, how our thoughts begin replaying conversations and future worries, and how anchoring your mind in God's Word helps restore peace. If your mind ever feels restless or overwhelmed, this episode will remind you that peace begins when we stop trying to do God's job and start trusting Him. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why overthinking often happens when we try to control outcomes that belong to God • How replaying conversations and future worries creates spiraling • Why renewing your mind through Scripture changes the direction of your thoughts • How prayer, gratitude, and surrender bring your mind back to peace • A simple question you can ask when your thoughts start spinning This episode will help you stop trying to carry everything in your own strength and begin returning your thoughts to God's truth. When truth leads your thoughts, God's peace follows. Scripture Referenced in This Episode Isaiah 26:3 — You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast because they trust in You Matthew 6:34 — Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself Romans 12:2 — Be transformed by the renewing of your mind Philippians 4:6–7 — Present your requests to God and the peace of God will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus Take the Next Step in Your Faith and Fitness Journey Are you tired of starting over with your health and fitness — and ready to do it God's way?

Leadership Presence & Emotional Maturity: Strength Under Control Series: Executive Performance Hosts: Scott Landis & Jeff Jacob Presented by: Business Freedom Advisors This episode continues the Executive Performance series within the TriMetric™ Tracking System, where Scott and Jeff unpack one of the most overlooked—but mission-critical—domains of leadership: Leadership Presence & Emotional Maturity. If you lead a team, this conversation is for you. Leadership presence is more than personality or style. It's: How you show up in the room How predictable and stable you are The emotional tone you set for your team Whether people feel safe, anxious, inspired, or uncertain Your presence directly impacts performance. How your people feel determines how your business performs. Scott describes leadership presence as a spectrum: Chaotic & Unstable Emotional swings Reactive behavior Fear-based culture Team anxiety Calm & Stable Predictable demeanor Emotional steadiness Psychological safety Clear direction The question isn't “Am I a good leader?” The better question is:

Here at Marketplace, we often report on a monthly economic indicator from the University of Michigan called the consumer sentiment index. It basically looks how people are feeling about the economy. Now, a team of academics at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School have used that index as a model to create something similar though much more niche: how people feel about cryptocurrency. It's called the Consumer Cryptocurrency Confidence Index, a monthly survey now in its third year. Marketplace's Stephanie Hughes spoke with Wharton marketing professor Dave Reibstein, one of the creators of the index, about what he hopes to accomplish with it.

Have you ever been taught that focusing on your health or fitness might be selfish… or even vain? Many Christian women have been exposed to a more legalistic view that caring about their bodies or health is prideful or worldly. But when we look at what Jesus actually said, we see something very different. Jesus tells us to love our neighbor as ourselves — which means caring for your body and your health was never meant to be selfish. In this episode of the Strong. Confident. His. Podcast, I'm sharing what Scripture really teaches about caring for your body and why stewarding your health can actually be an act of honoring God. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why many Christian women believe taking care of themselves is selfish • How constantly serving everyone else can lead to exhaustion and neglecting your health • What Jesus meant when He said to love your neighbor as yourself • Why caring for your body is biblical stewardship, not vanity • How shifting your mindset about your body can transform your relationship with food, fitness, and discipline This episode will help you stop seeing health as something selfish and start seeing it as an act of gratitude for the life God has given you. When you begin to love yourself the way God loves you, you begin to care for yourself the way He intended. Scripture Referenced in This Episode Proverbs 3:5–6 — Trust in the Lord with all your heart Matthew 22:37–39 — Love your neighbor as yourself 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 — Your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit 3 John 1:2 — I pray that you may prosper and be in health Philippians 4:13 — I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me Take the Next Step in Your Faith and Fitness Journey Are you tired of starting over with your health and fitness — and ready to do it God's way?

Struggling with social skills practice that actually feels natural? This week on the podcast, we're diving deep into practical, respectful ways to support our neurodivergent kiddos as they navigate friendships and social situations—without the cringe! From conversation entry points (aka scripts that don't turn our kids into social robots!) to playful, low-stakes role-playing at home, Colleen shares hands-on strategies to boost confidence and make socializing just a little easier for everyone involved. If "Just be yourself!" doesn't cut it in your house, you're not alone. Listen to this episode and help your kids build real-world connections, one conversation at a time. Key Takeaways: Scripts as Scaffolding, Not Life Sentences: Social scripts aren't rigid lines for kids to memorize forever. Instead, they serve as supportive "training wheels" to help neurodivergent kids enter, maintain, and exit conversations more naturally—reducing anxiety and offering footholds toward authentic communication. Practice Through Playful, Low-Stakes Moments: Avoid pressuring your child with public corrections or high-stakes rehearsal before social events. Instead, incorporate side-by-side role play, movie-pause coaching, and micro-practicing to gently build and reinforce social skills without making kids feel evaluated. Measure Progress by Initiative, Not Perfection: Success isn't about perfect eye contact or flawless conversation. Celebrate when your child initiates conversations, adapts their scripts into their own words, or asks to socialize again. These signs mean scripts are becoming real-world skills! Parenting and homeschooling neurodivergent kids is tough—but you're already doing amazing work just by showing up, learning, and supporting your child's unique journey.

Confidence isn't just mindset crap. It affects your pricing, your messaging, your sales conversations and your boundaries. And ultimately - whether your retreat fills or flops. In this episode, Shannon is joined by leadership expert, sales strategist, and bestselling author Nathan Jamail (she is biased, but he is pretty damn amazing) to unpack the real reason many retreat leaders struggle to sell out their events: lack of business confidence. They discuss: Imposter syndrome in the retreat industry Underpricing rooted in insecurity Overexplaining instead of leading What confident messaging actually sounds like How to build real, earned business confidence They also share that this episode was recorded in their new studio space in Austin - and you can now watch the full conversation on YouTube. If you've ever doubted yourself while launching a retreat, this episode will challenge and strengthen you. What You'll Learn Why confidence directly impacts conversions The hidden cost of underpricing How retreat leaders accidentally repel buyers The difference between loud marketing and confident leadership The discipline required to build real business confidence Key Takeaways Imposter syndrome doesn't disappear - it's managed through action. Underpricing signals insecurity to your audience. Overexplaining weakens authority. Confident leaders make clear decisions and stand by them. Confidence is built through preparation, skill, and repetition - not affirmations alone.

Today my husband Bill and I are celebrating 25 years of marriage, and this episode of the Strong. Confident. His. Podcast reflects on what God has taught us about faith, love, and supporting each other through every season of life. Years ago, Bill and I recorded this conversation together where we shared how we met, Bill's journey of faith, and the early seasons of building a life together. Before fitness competitions… before cover shoots… before writing books and building a Christian fitness ministry… Bill and I were simply two people learning how to build a life together and put Christ at the center of it. There were seasons where my dreams probably sounded a little crazy — like when I decided to start training and eventually become a fitness competitor. But Bill supported me, loved me, and believed in me through every season, and I've been honored to walk beside him through every season too. Marriage has taken us through many seasons, and through every one of them God has been faithful. When Christ is at the center, He carries you through the joyful moments, the stretching moments, and the ones where your faith grows the most. So today, in honor of our 25th anniversary, I'm replaying this conversation with Bill. Whether you're single, married, healing, or praying for the relationship God has for you, I hope this episode reminds you that God's timing and His plans are always greater than we can imagine. IN THIS EPISODE • How Bill and I met • Bill's journey of faith and how his heart changed for God • Lessons from 25 years of Christian marriage • Supporting each other through life seasons • The early days of my fitness competition journey • Why putting Christ at the center of your life and marriage changes everything FIT GOD'S WAY 30-DAY TRANSFORMATION INVITATION Are you ready to go all in with God in your health journey?

You don't lack opportunity. You lack clarity. And that confusion is costing you more than any bad investment ever could. Most people don't make bad money decisions because they're reckless. They make them because they're unclear. In this episode, the financial coaches break down how to make confident money decisions without stress, even in a world full of noise, fear, and financial experts.They unpack why not knowing your true monthly expenses creates anxiety, how common “money traps” like 401(k)s and aggressive debt paydowns can stall progress, and why access to cash is often more important than rate of return. The conversation dives into the psychology of fear, especially the ego-driven fear of making mistakes, and how that fear keeps people stuck in inaction.The coaches also share practical tools to help investors remove emotion and make methodical decisions. Confidence, they argue, doesn't show up before action. It follows reps. Small, consistent progress is what ultimately builds real financial freedom.Top three things you will learn:-The hidden money traps that increase stress and limit financial progress-Why fear of being wrong keeps smart people from taking action-How small, consistent investing reps build real confidence over timeDisclaimer: The opinions expressed on this podcast are solely those of the hosts and guests and do not constitute financial advice.

If you've been having one of those seasons where getting dressed feels frustrating, the mirror feels loud, or you keep comparing yourself to who you used to be, this episode is for you. Body confidence is not something you unlock once and keep forever. Some days feel steady and grounded. Other days feel heavy and discouraging. That does not mean you are failing. It means you are human. In this episode, I'm sharing my best reminders for building body confidence in real life, not in a "someday when I look different" way, but right now. We talk about giving yourself permission to be where you are, stopping the habit of putting your life on hold, reframing the pressure around your body, shifting your self-talk, and creating practical changes that help you feel supported instead of critical. This conversation is about rebuilding trust with yourself and learning how to live fully in the body you have today. Here's what you'll learn: • Why struggling with body confidence does not mean you are failing • How waiting to love yourself keeps you from living your life • Why your body is not the problem, even if it feels that way • The impact of your internal self-talk and how to shift it • Why clothes should fit your body, not the other way around • How curating your social media feed affects your confidence • The power of celebrating what your body has carried you through • Why confidence can begin with neutrality instead of love • The reminder that you are allowed to take up space If you're ready to build strength in a way that supports your body instead of punishing it, the Movement With Julie app gives you structured, approachable strength training designed to help you feel strong from the inside out.
