The Supreme Court just ruled 5-4 that ballots arriving after Election Day can still be counted — handing Democrats another way to turn Election Night into Election Week heading into the midterms. Pat breaks down exactly why this is a massive blow to common sense and election integrity. Chief Justice Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett joined the liberals to uphold Mississippi's law allowing mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day to roll in up to five days later. Nearly 30 states have similar rules, and we have seen how this drags things out — especially in places like California. The majority held that federal law doesn't require ballots to arrive by Election Day, just get postmarked. Dissenting conservatives, including Alito, warned it undermines the whole point of a single Election Day. Pat also covered: Clarence Thomas at the Capitol: 'Meeting nobody' — brushes off reporter cold. Hakeem Jeffries losing control as socialists take over Democrats? Last day of Pride Month — Pat Gray: Are YOU celebrating? "Extreme weather demands sacrifice" — from everyone except EU executives. The Left heading toward MORE violence toward rich Americans. Do you trust that late ballots are always legit, or is this just asking for more problems? Should Election Day actually mean something again? Drop your thoughts below — Pat reads the comments.

On this episode of Something To Wrestle, John Layfield and Conrad Thompson dive into some of the biggest talking points in professional wrestling, blending behind the scenes stories with JBL's trademark honesty and insight. The guys kick things off by discussing why there's never been a better time to be a lucha libre fan. From the incredible talent emerging from Mexico to the growing global appreciation for lucha libre, JBL explains why the style is thriving and why today's fans are witnessing a true golden era. Then the conversation shifts to TNA Wrestling, as John shares why he believes Road Dogg could be the right person to lead the company's creative direction. JBL breaks down what makes great wrestling storytelling, the importance of understanding talent, and why the right creative vision can completely transform a promotion. The discussion continues with one of JBL's core beliefs: professional wrestling is supposed to be fun. John reflects on why fans fell in love with wrestling in the first place and explains how entertainment, memorable characters, and larger-than-life moments have always been the foundation of the business. Finally, John and Conrad revisit the meeting that helped launch the Attitude Era. JBL pulls back the curtain on the conversations, ideas, and creative philosophy that helped reshape the WWF into the hottest promotion in the industry, forever changing professional wrestling. All that, plus another edition of WrestleWorth, and plenty of laughs with Curtain Jerkers on this episode of Something To Wrestle.     THIS WEEKS SPONSORS CHIME - Chime is not just smarter banking, it is the most rewarding way to bank.

He was a man after God's own heart, a conqueror of giants, and the builder of an empire. Yet, a single evening on a rooftop changed everything. If Israel's most brilliant and wise kings could fall so completely to the flesh and the world, what does it take for us to stand steady today? Summary: In this heavy but necessary episode, we dive into the tragic and cautionary text of 2 Samuel 11 through 1 Kings 11. We analyze the United Kingdom of Israel at its absolute peak of wealth, wisdom, and power, and dissect the exact vulnerabilities that fractured a golden age. The Rooftop Blueprint: We map the micro-steps of David's tragedy—from staying home when he should have been at war, to seeing, looking, inquiring, and taking. We learn why the Savior raised the bar to the level of the heart to stop this momentum before it kills us spiritually. The Cost of the Cover-Up: We uncover the horrific length David went to in order to hide his sin, culminating in the calculated sacrifice of the fiercely loyal Uriah. Thou Art the Man: We break down Nathan's masterful parable of the ewe lamb and analyze why David was so blind to his own hypocrisy until the prophet held up the mirror. The Sins of the Children: We witness the agonizing reality of the law of the harvest as David reaps the whirlwind within his own family tree—exploring the tragedy of Amnon and Tamar, and the heartbreaking rebellion of Absalom. The Wisdom and Wealth of Solomon: We transition to 1 Kings to study Solomon's blank check from God. We celebrate his request for an "understanding heart" to judge with empathy rather than cold calculation, but trace how wealth, materialism, and political alliances slowly sapped his spiritual strength. The Temple vs. The Palace: We contrast the seven years spent building the House of the Lord with the thirteen years Solomon spent building his own massive palace, asking ourselves: "Whose kingdom are we truly trying to build?" Call-to-Action: Saul fell to pride, David fell to the flesh, and Solomon fell to worldliness. Which of these three areas is the adversary currently using to target your foundation?

Is it time to let it go?Whether it's a grudge, resentment, disappointment, or a story you've been telling yourself for years, holding on can take a tremendous amount of energy. It can impact your relationships, your peace of mind, and your ability to move forward.In this episode of The Almost Daily Podcast, I explore the idea of forgiveness, letting go, and the expectations we place on both ourselves and others. We discuss why people hold on to old hurts, how our stories become reinforced over time, and why seeing our own blind spots can be one of the most challenging and rewarding parts of personal growth.This isn't a conversation about excusing bad behavior or pretending difficult experiences didn't happen. It's a conversation about the freedom that can come from releasing what no longer serves you and deciding what kind of life you want to carry forward.Topics Covered:• Is it time to let go?• The emotional cost of holding grudges• Why forgiveness can be difficult• The stories we tell ourselves• Expectations and disappointment• Seeing your own blind spots• Extending an olive branch• Taking responsibility for your part• Letting go without reconciliation• Social media and reinforced beliefs• Choosing peace over being right• The value of self-reflectionThank you for listening to The Almost Daily Podcast.Sometimes the heaviest things we carry are the stories, resentments, and disappointments we've held onto for years. Letting go doesn't change the past, but it can change what you carry into the future.

This episode is brought to you by Aligned for Wealth™, a free 3-part experience designed to help you stop paying the high cost of misalignment. Replays end July 2nd!  ✨ About This Season: The Anatomy of Alignment This season of Redefining Wealth is dedicated to unpacking what alignment really means — not as a buzzword, but as structure. We're dissecting how misalignment impacts each of the Six Pillars of Wealth — FIT, PEOPLE, SPACE, FAITH, WORK, and MONEY — and what it truly costs when we tolerate what drains us. Each episode builds on the last. So subscribe and journey with us as we move from awakening… to redefining… to actualizing.   Episode Summary In this season finale, Patrice reflects on one of the most powerful lessons from the Anatomy of Alignment series: the difference between the price of change and the cost of staying the same. While many people fear the discomfort, grief, uncertainty, or inconvenience that comes with making aligned decisions, Patrice challenges listeners to consider the long-term cost of remaining in situations, relationships, habits, and environments that no longer support who they're becoming. Through personal stories about her health, relationships, home, and recent life transitions, she reveals how misalignment quietly taxes our energy, peace, and potential over time. Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to stop calculating only the immediate price of change and start honestly evaluating the hidden cost of staying the same. Patrice reminds us that alignment often requires temporary discomfort, but misalignment can create years of emotional, spiritual, physical, and financial drain. As she closes out the season, she encourages listeners to embrace the work of alignment, trust the vision they've been given, and choose the version of life that reflects who they are becoming rather than who they used to be.   Questions to Ask Yourself: What am I avoiding because I'm focused on the price instead of the cost? Where in my life am I paying a long-term price for staying the same? What relationship, habit, environment, or commitment no longer aligns with who I'm becoming? What would become possible if I stopped negotiating with misalignment? Am I willing to experience temporary discomfort in exchange for lasting alignment?   Want to Redefine Wealth for Yourself?

This week, Trevor and Eugene are joined by journalist Don Lemon for a very entertaining and wide-ranging conversation. Don opens up about his high-profile exit from CNN, getting arrested while reporting, and why, four months after his arrest, the government still won't return his phone. From there, the trio dives into the decline of authenticity in modern media, the politics of identity and belonging, and why love is love is love. Along the way, they make plenty of room for humor, unpacking relationship dynamics, internet gossip, and a brutally honest review of the Kevin Hart roast. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Iran Deal is the Worst Deal Ever. DSA Runs the Table, WIll it Cost the Dems? The story of the Real SAV Act. Who Do You Trust in  Post-Truth Era? America has a primary problem, and New York City is ground zero. Less than 500,000 voters showed up to decide who runs a city of five million, while a million independents — Paul included — were shut out by the most closed primary in the country. That's not democracy. That's a rigged two-party system handing the keys to whichever faction can mobilize the most insiders, while the angry middle stands on the sidelines watching the country drift. In this special episode cut from two recent CNN appearances with Erin Burnett, Paul breaks down the seismic NYC shakeup, the Senate's overdue spine on Iran, the worst ceasefire ever, and a White House so packed with sycophants that the president's own assistant leaves him love notes. He digs into why Trump is fixated on the Save Act — because free and fair elections are America's circuit breaker — and why Democrats keeping Barack Obama on the sidelines is political malpractice. It's quick-fire, intel-grade analysis for the angry middle. No jersey. No spin. No-BS. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything.

The league is deciding whether to include new draft eligibility rules that would cut out all high school players from being drafted.

It's not news that there are changes afoot in the world of education. You're probably already well aware of the closure, over the past few years, of schools with a long history. There are concerns with loan debt that have been an issue since Obama was president. Most recently, the changes to student loans that not only fundamentally affect the acupuncture trade, but will change the landscape for graduate education in a notable way. In this conversation with Bex Groebner we untangle the intersection of education, accreditation, federal student loan programs and professional accountability. We explore how changes in funding will put financial pressure on schools that built a business model based on the higher loan caps of GRAD+ loans. How student debt affects those who are mortgaging their future on loans that many cannot pay back. Along with what could happen if the levels of student enrollment drop to the point where our accreditor (ACAHM) and certification organization (NCBAHM) lose the funding needed to sustain their business activities.Bex suggests that in an uncertain world, it's best to have a back up, and that is a large part of the motivation behind her work at the Acupuncture Workforce Alliance. Most of all, she'd like to see an acupuncture education be accessible, affordable and within reach of anyone who'd like to learn this medicine so they can serve their communities, and be able to support themselves and their families.

"How many lives could have been saved if the warning signs had been connected sooner?"In the mid-1980s, a wave of unprecedented terror gripped Southern California. Windows were nailed shut, lights were on throughout the night, and ordinary communities found themselves at the mercy of a predatory phantom. The media gave him a moniker that froze the blood of millions: "The Night Stalker." But away from the sensational headlines, a devastating reality was unfolding; one marked by fragmented police jurisdictions, catastrophic political blunders, and an analog system entirely unequipped to track a transient killer.In this episode of When Killers Get Caught, host Brittany Ransom shifts the lens away from the killer's dark celebrity to honor the real people behind the statistics. We strip away the mythology of Richard Ramirez to examine the human cost of the tragedy, the structural failures that kept him on the streets for 14 terrifying months, and the ordinary East L.A. citizens who finally refused to let him disappear again.The Victims Before the Headlines: Restoring the names, lives, and humanity of those targeted, including Jennie Vincow, Maxon and Lela Kneiding, Vincent and Maxine Zazzara, and the brave young survivors like six-year-old Anastasia Hronas.The Anatomy of a Ghost: How Ramirez's unmapped, transient status allowed him to exploit the margins of Los Angeles and slip between the cracks of a fragmented legal system.Investigative Blunders & Political Egos: A deep dive into the shocking missteps that compromised the hunt. Including the infamous Dianne Feinstein shoe press conference and the live media leak of the killer's stolen getaway vehicle.The Streets Take Back Control: The visceral moment a neighborhood cornered a monster, proving the manhunt wouldn't end with a SWAT raid, but with ordinary people shouting “¡El Matón!”The Endless Trial & Death Row Gridlock: An exploration of the toxic courtroom spectacle, the "Night Stalker Groupies," and the philosophical failure of a 24-year death row sentence that was ultimately beaten by cancer.A Note from Brittany: When Killers Get Caught will be taking a brief mid-summer production break for the month of July to prepare our next season of deep dives.

Most Amazon operators treat TikTok and Walmart like a backup plan, but ignoring these platforms could cost you 119% growth. Neil Twa breaks down why relying solely on Amazon is a single point of failure. He shares insights from a company that's thriving by diversifying across all three platforms. Neil recalls a conversation with a community member who was making $30,000 a month on Amazon with eight SKUs and solid margins. The key takeaway? Expanding to Walmart Marketplace and using TikTok isn't optional if you want to keep up. Whether you're doing $5,000 or $500,000 a month, these moves are crucial. Ready to implement with us?

In this episode, I break down exactly how I went from running smaller businesses to acquiring a company at scale without giving up control. I share how I built my audience, why I went all in on Somewhere instead of cashing out, and how I structured a nearly $30M deal where investors got paid first but had zero decision-making power. I talk about the pressure of using other people's money, what I look for in massive opportunities, and why global hiring completely changed how I think about building companies. I also give my honest take on AI, where it's overhyped, where it's actually useful, and how I'm preparing for what's coming next.

A community so generous that no one claimed anything as their own sounds like a dream until the next scene turns deadly serious. Ananias and Sapphira sell some property, keep part of the money, and lie about it to look more sacrificial than they were, and what condemned them was the pretending. The early church needed to learn that the God who fills his people with grace is not mocked by play-acting. This episode is a sober word for every Christian tempted to manage an image instead of living honestly before God.  The Rev. David Boisclair, senior pastor at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Overland, MO, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Acts 4:32-5:11. To learn more about Our Redeemer, visit ourredeemerstl.org. The book of Acts picks up where the Gospels leave off. Jesus has risen. He has ascended. And now what? Acts answers that question. Luke tells the story of how the Holy Spirit built the Church from a handful of frightened disciples in Jerusalem into a movement that reached Rome itself. Along the way, you get Pentecost, the first sermons, the first martyrs, the conversion of Paul, the first church councils, shipwrecks, riots, and the persistent, stubborn work of God through Word and Sacrament even when His people didn't have a plan. If you've ever wondered how we got from Easter morning to the Church you sit in today, this is the book. Tune in for this new series on Thy Strong Word with Pastor Phil Booe and guest pastors as we open up the Book of Acts.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.

Have you ever wondered why working harder doesn't always lead to feeling better?As entrepreneurs, we're often praised for our determination, resilience, and ability to push through discomfort. But what if the very thing you've relied on to achieve success is quietly draining the energy and capacity you need to sustain it? I want you to ask yourself—how often are you pushing past your body's signals instead of listening to what they're trying to tell you?In this episode of Success Genius, I explore the hidden cost of chronic willpower and why constantly overriding fatigue, resistance, and stress isn't a sustainable strategy for long-term success. We dive into the science behind nervous system regulation, the physiological effects of chronic stress, and why high achievers often mistake survival mode for peak performance.Join me as we uncover a powerful truth: ambition isn't the problem—chronic override is. When you learn to treat your body's signals as valuable data instead of obstacles to overcome, you create the conditions for sustainable growth, better performance, and a healthier relationship with success. Because true achievement isn't about forcing yourself to keep going—it's about building the capacity to thrive for the long run.Topics covered in this episode include:The hidden physiological cost of relying on willpower to push through exhaustionWhy chronic nervous system override can lead to burnout, fatigue, and decreased performanceThe difference between willpower as a short-term solution and regulation as a long-term strategyHow to conduct a body budget audit and identify what's draining your energyReady to stop running on determination alone? Tune in and discover how nervous system regulation can help you sustain your ambition, protect your well-being, and build success without sacrificing yourself in the process.Resources Mentioned:Get The Book:  https://book.neillwilliams.com/bookLearn More About TEAM90:  https://neillwilliams.com/team90Book A Team Turnaround Call:  https://neillwilliams.com/team-turnaround-callContact Us: support@neillwilliams.com

President Donald Trump on Wednesday canceled a planned signing of bipartisan legislation aimed at speeding up the construction and availability of more affordable housing. "Today's Housing News Conference and Signing is hereby cancelled until such time as we pass the desperately needed SAVE AMERICA ACT, which I consider to be a National Emergency," Trump said in a post on Truth Social.Brent crude oil has reached its lowest price since the Iran war began. The global benchmark dipped below $76 a barrel early Wednesday. It's still higher than before the conflict started on Feb. 28, but lower than the closing price on any trading day after that. West Texas Intermediate is fluctuating near a similar milestone.

Are we really “overteaching” phonics, or should there be a hard stopping point where it's not taught past a certain grade?Are current stories trending on popular news outlets aligned with best practices for supporting dyslexic learners?Is the public becoming more educated on how we learn to read, write, and spell?I invited my colleague, Lori Josephson, an author, consultant, and former teacher to discuss these questions. In this episode, we discuss:✅ Common literacy “urban legends”, including “Dyslexia is seeing words backwards” and “look at the picture and guess the word”✅ Why phonics gets a bad wrap and where the Science of Reading is often misunderstood✅ Handwriting, keyboarding, and how they relate to neural connections✅Making instruction more effective by integrating language, print, spelling, and executive functioning instead of siloing.Lori Josephson is an Author, Dyslexia Specialist, and Educational Consultant who is a  Fellow of the Orton-Gillingham Academy, a retired Wilson Language Trainer, and holds a Master's Degree in Special Education-Learning Disabilities. She has had the privilege of teaching hundreds of struggling students how to make sense of print and text, as well as the honor of working with thousands of teachers training them how to teach and reach their students using methods based upon the complex brain processes involved in attaining literacy, the body of knowledge referred to as the Science of Reading. Her recently published book, “Calling All Neurons! How Reading and Spelling Happen”, explains how the human brain attains literacy in a fun, easy to understand manner where specialized neurons take the stage to provide this explanation. Lori serves as a Moderator of the wildly popular Facebook Group, Science of Reading-What I Should Have Learned in College, and is on the Advisory Council of The Northern Ohio Branch of The Dyslexia Association.You can connect with Lori in the following places:o Website: lorijosephson.com o LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lori-josephson/o X: @lorijosephson2o Facebook: Lori Josephsono Instagram: @calling_all_neuronso Medium: https://lorijosephson.medium.com/o Substack: @lorijosephson686067We mentioned the following resources in this episode:Lori's book, “Calling All Neurons!

That's exactly where Dot and Cara picked up this week, continuing last week's conversation about counting the cost, but this time turning to what happens when someone else's choices end up costing you.

If you've ever felt responsible for everyone else's happiness, struggled to set boundaries, or found yourself saying yes when you really meant no, this conversation is for you. Paula Mathias, author of The Yes Test Method, joins me for a wide-ranging conversation about people pleasing, overcommitment, burnout, confidence, and why being the dependable one can come at a cost.

Yann Guignon embodies a rare path, at the crossroads of worlds and histories. Franco-Gabonese by adoption—under the guidance of Professor Jean Noël Gassita—and by marriage, he has spent over two decades building a unique bridge between Africa and the West, between living traditions and modernity. His commitment began in 2004, when he entered an initiatory journey within several Gabonese rites. Initiated into Bwiti in 2006, he gradually developed a deep relationship with traditional knowledge holders. Over the years, this involvement led to his recognition as a guardian of tradition, and to his appointment as International Ambassador of the Association Maghanga Ma Nzambé, an organization dedicated to preserving and transmitting Gabonese traditional medicine. But his journey goes far beyond a personal quest. As a consultant in intercultural mediation and sustainable development, he is actively engaged in addressing a deeper issue: the need to repair the imbalances inherited from the colonial history between the West and Africa. His approach is grounded in a strong conviction: traditional knowledge systems are neither archaic nor folkloric—they are fully-fledged systems of knowledge that must be recognized, protected, and fairly valued. As scientific and industrial interest in iboga and ibogaine continues to grow, he was among the first to raise concerns about potential risks: knowledge extraction, marginalization of traditional communities, and unequal distribution of value. Where others see a market, he sees responsibility. He went on to found Blessings of the Forest, an NGO dedicated to the conservation of Gabon's cultural and natural heritage. Through this work, he strives to build concrete bridges between local communities, institutions, and international stakeholders, advocating for models based on equity, reciprocity, and respect for international frameworks such as the Nagoya Protocol. Both in the field and on the international stage, he carries a distinct voice—that of a mediator, at once witness, actor, and bridge-builder. A voice that reminds us that behind every molecule studied, there is a story, a culture, and communities that must not be rendered invisible.

Sometimes the biggest obstacles in life aren't the obvious problems. They're the situations that are just comfortable enough to keep us stuck. In this episode, Dr. Killeen shares a thought-provoking quote from Gurwinder Bhogal and explores why small frustrations, misalignment, and quiet dissatisfaction can have a bigger impact on our lives than major challenge. From associateships and practice culture to personal goals and career decisions, he discusses the danger of settling for situations that don't align with your values or vision. He encourages listeners to move beyond asking, "Can I tolerate this?" and instead ask whether their current path is truly leading them toward the life and career they want to build.

The so-called “memorandum of understanding” that might end Trump's war in Iran has felt pretty disappointing. But here in the U.S., voters may be more focused on the final outcome, and what that means going forward. To find out how Americans are feeling about the Iran war as midterms approach, we spoke to Sarah Longwell, who knows voter sentiment better than most. She's the publisher of The Bulwark, host of The Focus Group podcast, and author of "How To Eat An Elephant," out on September 8.And in headlines, at least five people have reportedly been arrested after Trump blamed vandals for the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool's post-renovation blues, Alligator Alcatraz is officially shutting down, and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announces his resignation.Show Notes: Check out Sarah's podcast – www.thebulwark.com/s/thefocusgroup Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/ins.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM731_FINAL.mp3   The survival set point is the pattern that has you saying yes when every part of you wants to say no — and it runs on a single, underlying emotion: desperation. In this episode, Steph Tuss and I get into why this set point is so pervasive among entrepreneurs, where it comes from, and what it’s quietly costing you in your health, your business, and your relationships. This is Part 3 of the Financial Setpoint Series. If you’re new to the series, Episode 729 introduces the full framework and includes access to the free Psychological Set Point Analyzer at lifeisnowinc.com/setpoint. Episode 730 covers the scarcity set point. Start there if you want the full picture. Survival Set Point: The Three Places It Shows Up in BusinessThe survival set point shows up most visibly in three areas. The first is client selection. When you’re operating from survival mode, the fear of having nothing is louder than your judgment about whether someone is a good fit. You take the client who gives you bad energy in the discovery call. You work with the team member you know is underperforming because the thought of not finding someone better feels too risky. The underlying belief is the same in both cases: if I say no to this, there might not be anything else. The second is scope creep. When a client pushes a deadline, asks for extra deliverables, or slips requests in outside the original agreement, you feel it in your body first — that tightening, that discomfort. But then your mind goes to work justifying it. They’re a good client. I don’t want them to be upset. I’ll just do it this once. And you cave. Every time. That’s not a communication problem. That’s a survival set point telling you that holding a boundary means losing something you can’t afford to lose. The third is the slow-period panic. When business slows down, the survival set point amplifies into something closer to crisis mode. Desperation and panic run together, and when you’re in panic, you lose the ability to think clearly. You slash prices and pivot to things you don’t actually want to do. You make reactive decisions that feel urgent but aren’t strategic — and the first thing you sacrifice is the clear thinking that would actually solve the problem. Survival Set Point: Where It Starts and Why Entrepreneurs Are Especially VulnerableMost of the business owners Steph and I have worked with over the past 35 years grew up in some form of a chaotic household. That’s not a coincidence. When your sense of safety as a child depended on reading the room, managing unpredictable people, or simply taking care of yourself, your nervous system learns to operate in survival mode as its default. The problem is that when you become an adult and start a business, your subconscious doesn’t automatically update. It keeps running the same programming — except now the stakes feel like payroll and client relationships instead of childhood survival. One of the things Steph pointed out in this conversation is that the survival set point is also a control set point. People who grew up in chaos learned to cope by controlling whatever they could. In business, that shows up as micromanaging your team when money gets tight, over-involvement in every decision, and an inability to delegate — not because you don’t trust your people, but because releasing control feels genuinely dangerous. The cost shows up in your team’s performance, in your health, and eventually in the sustainability of the business itself. The Cost — and the Path OutThe survival set point is one of the most physically taxing of the four types. The constant state of low-grade anxiety, dysregulated cortisol, and fear-based decision-making takes a real toll. Steph and I both see it in clients who are struggling with persistent health issues — fatigue, disrupted sleep, and the kind of chronic stress that accumulates when you never feel safe. The financial cost is equally real. Surviving month to month, using lines of credit to relieve pressure rather than to invest, and making decisions from fear rather than strategy — none of these move the business forward. They just buy another month. The way out is awareness first, then reprogramming. The Psychological Set Point Analyzer at lifeisnowinc.com/setpoint will tell you whether survival is your primary pattern, along with a seven-day plan to start shifting it. Steph and I are also hosting the Elite Mind Intensive on August 18th and 19th — two days focused specifically on set point work at a deeper level. Details are in the show notes.  Episode 542 – Reverse Engineer Your Vision Episode 470 – Be Grateful for the Opportunity to Work Episode 129 – What’s the Difference Between a True Desire, a Want, Lust, or a Fear-Based Need? YOU'VE LEARNED THE STRATEGIES… SO WHY DOES YOUR REVENUE STILL CONTINUE TO PLATEAU?Here’s what I know about most business owners: They’re working hard, doing the right things, and still hitting the same income ceiling year after year. That ceiling has a name — it’s your Financial Set Point. It’s the unconscious limit you’ve placed on what you believe you can earn, and until you see it clearly, it runs the show no matter what strategies you put in place.That’s what we work on at my upcoming Business Intensive in August.  Over two days, I'll help you identify your financial set point, understand why it’s there, and break through it so you can finally earn what you want without the constant struggle and hustle that’s been getting you nowhere.If that sounds like exactly what’s been missing, you don’t want to sit this one out.

Leaning into relationships is the process of choosing the relationship over everything else, including our fears and insecurities. It can feel super scary because it requires vulnerability and openness, and this can mean that we may need to courage up and step into discomfort. Because when things in a relationship get tough, it can be super easy to lean out to protect our point of view, our struggling sense of self, and our ego. But leaning out increases the distance and drives disconnect. If we want meaningful, connected, and intimate relationships, we have to have the courage to lean in.

Topic Segment: Verizon's Breach Impact Study The same team that delivers the DBIR every year gave us a bonus, based on over 70,000 insurance claims! Some of my favorite insights: Cost of breaches, broken out by SMB, mid-sized enterprise, and large The claim amount as a percentage of the company's revenue Losses broken down by loss TYPE This data validates something I think everyone in cyber needs to understand: cyber events are rarely business-ending events. Every cybersecurity professional and vendor, frustrated by companies "not taking security seriously enough" now have data explaining why: breaches don't hurt as much as you thought they did. Maybe you think they should hurt more? Push for regulation/fines/etc. With that said, the report also shows breach costs increasing significantly over the past 6 years and the quantity of incidents shooting up. Specifically, the median impact has almost doubled. Security failures aren't getting any cheaper. Weekly Enterprise News Finally, in the enterprise security news, A $100M seed round!

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani swept into office with a campaign focused on costs and a promise to freeze rents on rent-regulated apartments. That pledge unnerved landlords who own buildings with expensive debt and face higher costs for insurance, utilities and other expenses. Ahead of primary elections this Tuesday, Mamdani has endorsed like-minded candidates with similarly progressive ideas for how to address the cost of housing. That has sometimes put them and Mamdani at odds with House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries on an issue they all hope will resonate with voters in November.  Host Sabrina Siddiqui speaks with Mayor Mamdani and explains how tenants and landlords are viewing his policy proposals in The Cost-of-Living Election, Part 4.

When you visit a doctor, you assume the diagnosis and treatment will be based entirely on your symptoms and medical history. But there is another factor that can quietly influence what happens in the exam room and the quality of the care you receive. And it has nothing to do with your health. https://qualitysafety.bmj.com/content/26/1/13 Bacon may be one of the most beloved foods in America. People wrap it around other foods, crumble it onto salads, put it in desserts, and even flavor cocktails with it. What's especially interesting is that bacon's popularity has continued to grow despite years of warnings from health experts about its risks. So what is it about bacon that has captured the American imagination? Why has it become more than just a breakfast food and evolved into a cultural phenomenon? Mark Johnson, who teaches at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, traces bacon's unlikely rise from humble pork product to national obsession. He is author of American Bacon: The History of a Food Phenomenon (https://amzn.to/4odStxo). When you mix money with emotions, all kinds of things can go wrong – and often do. That's according to Jade Warshaw. She is a personal finance coach and co-host of The Ramsey Show with Dave Ramsey. She and her husband paid off more than $400,000 in debt and transformed their financial lives. Now she is on a mission to help people understand how money works, how your emotions impact what you do with your money and how to get back on track. Her latest book is What No One Tells You About Money: The Real Key to Getting Unstuck from Someone Who's Been There (https://amzn.to/4fMAGv9). Your brain is remarkably good at many things. Holding onto a growing list of errands, appointments, reminders, and unfinished tasks is NOT one of them. In fact, trying to keep everything in your head can increase stress and mental clutter. There is a simple, surprisingly powerful tool for clearing your mind and improving focus—and it requires nothing more sophisticated than a pen and paper. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/zeigarnik-effect Learn more about your ad choices.
