Compliance can quietly drain energy in leadership relationships. This episode explores how nervous system bracing and self-editing create pressure before conflict ever appears, and why this isn't failure but an invitation to identity-level recalibration.For many high-performing, capable humans, compliance didn't come from fear.It came from wisdom.From reading the room, navigating power, and keeping things stable without unnecessary friction.But over time, that same strategy can begin to cost more than it protects.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly walks alongside listeners through the Release stage of Identity-Level Recalibration, exploring how nervous system appeasement patterns and long-held relational stories quietly drain energy, often before any conflict ever occurs.This episode is especially relevant if you:Feel pressure or fatigue before conversations that matterNotice yourself softening, self-editing, or staying quiet to keep things smoothCarry responsibility without holding final authoritySense internal strain even when relationships appear stableWant alignment without becoming sharper, louder, or confrontationalRather than asking listeners to change behavior or trust themselves prematurely, this episode reframes Release as subtraction, not substitution.Release is not about confrontation.It's not about becoming more demanding.It's not about hurting people you care about.It's about learning that you don't have to override yourself immediately.Julie gently explores how these patterns once protected connection, and why loosening them can feel tender without being wrong. This episode honors the quiet grief that can surface when long-standing strategies begin to soften, without pathologizing or rushing the process.This is not mindset work or productivity advice.Identity-Level Recalibration is root-level alignment that makes every other tool effective again.Today's Micro Recalibration:The next time you notice yourself defaulting to compliance, ask quietly:“What am I protecting right now?”No fixing.No reframing.Just noticing.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

The Lord's Prayer may be the most familiar prayer in Christianity—and the most overlooked. In this episode of InContext, Michael Easley sits down with Brad Gray and Brad Nelson of Walking the Text to uncover the depth, power, and biblical context behind the prayer Jesus taught His disciples. Drawing from years of study in Israel, pastoral ministry, and personal experiences of grief and suffering, Brad and Nelson show how the Lord's Prayer is not just something Jesus taught—it's the prayer He lived. From Exodus imagery and the “heavens” language to forgiveness, grief, and the kingdom of God, this conversation reframes the prayer as a daily blueprint for discipleship. Whether you've prayed the Lord's Prayer for decades or rarely stop to think about its meaning, this episode invites you to hear it with fresh ears—and to rediscover how it shapes our understanding of God, ourselves, and our purpose in the world.

Dr. Adam Dorsay introduces SuperPsyched and frames the growing misinformation problem, citing low trust in traditional media , the rise of influencer-based news consumption among 18–29 year olds, research that false news spreads faster than truth on Twitter, and the World Economic Forum ranking misinformation/disinformation as the most severe global risk in 2024 and 2025. He interviews Dr. Avi Tuschman (Stanford StartX serial entrepreneur; Stanford doctorate in anthropological science; expert on human political bias) about Cricket (C-R-I-C-K-I-T), an AI tool that provides real-time in-stream fact checks for social media videos, starting with YouTube on desktop. The discussion covers why misinformation spreads (high-arousal content, negativity bias, suggestibility, and attention scarcity), why it affects everyone (including errors/omissions/exaggerations in reputable content), and the relationship between media ecosystems, polarization, and a global democratic recession. Avi raises concerns about TikTok's influence, urging people over 30 to review its “society” content, citing examples of high-production misinformation, alleged foreign influence efforts, elevated WWII revisionism compared with Instagram (UNESCO figure of 5.7x), and medical misinformation (e.g., a study finding ~25% of asthma content has significant misrepresentations and is overrepresented in viewing). He describes Cricket's user experience as subtitle-like overlays with a pause expansion panel summarizing evidence in ~40–50 words, and positions it as a tool to build media literacy and critical thinking—like a flight simulator for evaluating persuasion and uncertainty. Plans include mobile support and additional platforms, potentially later in the year, though TikTok is not supported yet.

Episode OverviewHave you ever trusted a referral or hired an “expert,” only to discover they lacked the competence to deliver real results? In this personal solo episode of the Give A Heck Podcast, I reveal the hard truth behind blind trust, guru culture, and the costly consequences of assuming expertise without verification.After losing tens of thousands of dollars and watching my business stall, I was forced to confront the reality of misplaced trust. Through artificial intelligence, faith, and personal accountability, I uncovered critical gaps and began rebuilding from a place of clarity and ownership.This episode is a wake‑up call for entrepreneurs, coaches, and professionals who want to protect their business, finances, and future from preventable mistakes.What You Will Learn• Why blind trust in referrals and consultants leads to financial loss• How confidence can disguise incompetence• The hidden dangers of guru culture and online programs• How AI exposed business gaps and revealed the truth• Why accountability is essential for rebuilding momentum• How to properly verify expertise before hiring anyone• The emotional, financial, and spiritual impact of misplaced trustHow Blind Trust Created Loss and StagnationTrust has always been a core value in my life and business. I believed referrals equaled credibility. That belief became one of the most expensive lessons of my career.Over six years, I hired referred “experts” who lacked the competence to deliver meaningful results. The outcome: financial loss, stalled growth, and emotional exhaustion. Trust without verification created vulnerability.The Referral Trap and Illusion of ExpertiseReferrals often feel like validation, but they're frequently based on assumptions—not proven results. Confidence, charisma, and reputation can mask a lack of real skill. Verification must replace blind trust.How the Pandemic Increased VulnerabilityDuring the pandemic, urgency and emotional stress replaced proper due diligence. Investments in consultants and marketing experts failed to deliver, costing tens of thousands and delaying progress. This became a turning point that forced a complete reevaluation.How AI Helped Reveal the TruthArtificial intelligence became a powerful tool for uncovering what had been overlooked. By analyzing my systems, digital presence, and strategy, AI exposed gaps no consultant had ever addressed. This clarity became the foundation for rebuilding with ownership and accountability.Personal Accountability and Reclaiming ControlI realized no one would ever care about my success more than I do. Rebuilding required taking full responsibility, verifying expertise, and trusting myself to make better decisions. This shift restored confidence and momentum.Faith, Integrity, and Spiritual AccountabilityFaith guides how I approach business and relationships. Integrity, responsibility, and alignment protect my future and ensure peace in my decisions.Guru Culture and False PromisesMany consultants and programs rely on emotional persuasion rather than sustainable results. Verification and due diligence are essential before trusting anyone with your money or business.Trust But VerifyTrust must be earned and validated. Modern tools—including AI—allow you to confirm expertise and protect your time, money, and future. Verification is no longer optional; it's a necessity.Connect with Dwight Heck

Choosing a corporate trustee is one of the most important decisions in estate planning—especially if you're naming a bank, brokerage trust department, or independent trust company to manage assets and carry out your wishes after you're gone. Lance Roberts & Jon Penn break down how to compare corporate trustees beyond just “lowest fees,” including fiduciary standards, investment flexibility, service model, administrative capabilities, distribution discipline, technology/reporting, continuity, and how they handle family dynamics. We also cover the key differences between revocable and irrevocable trusts, including where each is typically used, how control and flexibility change, and why trustee selection matters even more once a trust becomes irrevocable. Finally, we explain Trust Protectors—what they do, why they can be a critical safeguard, and how they may help your beneficiaries replace a trustee later if service, philosophy, or circumstances change. For educational purposes only. This discussion is general in nature and not individualized legal, tax, or investment advice—talk with your estate attorney and tax professional to apply these concepts to your situation.

Broadway Besties, the news this week is giving us EXACTLY what we never expected but absolutely needed. To kick it off, Lindsey reviews the new Cost n' Mayor dance musical, 11 to Midnight! Broadway News:

In this episode, Jeff Mains sits down with Michael Ferranti, a veteran of developer tools and cloud-native infrastructure with over a decade of experience at companies like PortWorks, Teleport, and Unleash. Michael shares insights on feature management, the critical role of feature flags in modern software delivery, and how to effectively market to developers. The conversation explores why "friends don't let friends build their own feature flag system," the evolving landscape of product-led growth, and how AI is reshaping go-to-market strategies for developer tools.Key Takeaways[5:27] - The Common Thread in Category Creation[7:17] - What is Feature Management?[11:56] - The Cost of Downtime[18:28] - The Race Car Analogy[19:59] - Marketing to Developers[24:18] - User vs. Buyer[30:30] - Easy to Try is Essential[35:30] - Organic Search is Declining[36:29] - AIO (AI Optimization)[40:26] - The PLG Myth[44:17] - The AI ShiftTweetable Quotes"The thing that makes product development and success in SaaS really easy is when you have a product that solves real problems in a market that's big enough.""Friends don't let friends build their own feature flag system. You're not writing your own version of Git—feature management is no different.""Feature flags are like brakes on a race car. They don't slow you down—they let you go faster by allowing you to take turns safely and accelerate out of them.""Marketing to developers is no more complicated than marketing to dentists. People are people—they respond to emotion, logic, and pain.""The biggest objection to feature flags is that people think it's gonna slow them down, when in fact it's all about speeding them up.""If you're doing go-to-market the same way you were doing it 12 months ago, you're probably doing it wrong. Now it's six months. Now it's three months."SaaS Leadership Lessons1. Market Size Trumps Perfect Execution Even with the best product and conversion rates, growth will plateau if your addressable market isn't large enough. Evaluate market size as rigorously as you evaluate product-market fit.2. Speed Requires Safety Mechanisms The fastest-moving teams aren't reckless—they've invested in systems (like feature flags) that allow them to ship confidently and recover instantly. Build your "brakes" before you try to accelerate.3. Know Your User vs. Your Buyer Developer tools require a dual strategy: serve the hands-on-keyboard users who will love (or hate) your product, while convincing budget holders of business value. Neglect either and you'll struggle.4. Friction is the Enemy of Adoption In developer tools, the ability to try your product without a sales conversation isn't optional—it's existential. Whether through open source, free trials, or freemium models, eliminate barriers to first value.5. Proprietary Data is Your AI Moat As AI reshapes discovery, the companies that win will be those with unique data sources that LLMs cite as authoritative. Think "Zillow for home prices" in your category.6. Adaptability is the New Competitive Advantage The pace of change has accelerated to the point where strategies have a 3-6 month shelf life. Build a culture of curiosity, experimentation, and rapid learning rather...

What if everything modern culture tells us about fulfillment is wrong? In this compilation episode, we explore the two foundational lies that drive much of our dissatisfaction and drift: the belief that chasing fame, wealth, and power will make us happy, and the belief that if we're comfortable, we're somehow doing it wrong. Discover how these lies shape the decisions we make, the ladders we climb, and the regrets we carry into our final days.We unpack the four idols that distract us from what actually matters, why deliberately choosing discomfort builds the capacity for everything else, and what the dying wish they had known sooner. Learn how to recognize when you're being pulled toward the wrong things, how to build a life around what truly fulfills you, and why thinking about death isn't morbid - it's the tool that helps you live fully right now.

In this episode of The Addicted Mind, Duane speaks with Dr. Nima Rahmani, a former chiropractor turned emotional health educator. Dr. Nima shares his profound journey from "success on paper" to a total relational breakdown that forced him to confront his own deep-seated patterns of anxious attachment and fawning.They dive deep into the concept of becoming "trigger-proof," the hidden cost of people-pleasing, and why "shame alchemization" is the secret to a truly authentic life. Whether you are struggling with addiction, burnout, or toxic relationship cycles, this episode offers a roadmap for moving from unconscious reactivity to conscious leadership.Key Topics & Chapters[01:32] The Wake-Up Call: Dr. Nima discusses how a crisis in his personal life and a brush with the legal system forced him to look past his professional success and address his defensive reactivity.[03:54] The Cost of Fawning: A breakdown of the "Fawn" response—how suppressing your truth to appease others creates a "bottomless pit" of resentment and physical inflammation.[10:14] Defining the Fawn Response: Dr. Nima provides a powerful analogy of how children learn to appease "predators" (caregivers) to survive, and how that evolves into a destructive adult relationship strategy.[14:41] Somatic Impact: Exploring the link between unresolved emotional wounds, fawning, and chronic physical issues like autoimmune diseases and inflammation.[21:00] Loving the Shadow: Why true self-love isn't about liking your "best" parts, but about "unshaming" the parts of yourself you've tried to kill off or hide.[27:12] Success vs. Intimacy: Why high-achieving entrepreneurs often crush it in business but fail in relationships, and how the "push energy" of success can actually block emotional safety.[47:26] The Worthiness Inquiry: Dr. Nima shares a foundational question for listeners: "I am only worthy of love when..."[52:00] The Heartbeat Realization: A moving story about hearing his son's heartbeat and rediscovering the concept of inherent worthiness.Key Quotes"Shame alchemization is the secret to being a human... finding these embarrassing, unacceptable parts of us and really looking to understand them." — Dr. Nima Rahmani"Fawning is when you freeze a part of you in an interaction... you freeze your truth and then you perform niceness." — Dr. Nima Rahmani"One size fits all is not real. It's not real for baseball caps, and it's not real for recovery plans." — Dr. Nima Rahmani (Note: This is a callback to the theme of individualized healing)"The path to self-love is really about loving your shadow." — Dr. Nima RahmaniUnderstanding the Survival ResponsesTo better understand where "Fawning" fits into our biological safety system, it helps to see it alongside the more commonly known stress responses:Fight: Aggression and boundary-setting.Flight: Avoiding or escaping the threat.Freeze: Numbing out or becoming paralyzed.Fawn: Appeasing the threat to ensure safety.Resources MentionedThe Attachment Style Quiz: Discover if you are anxious, avoidant, or disorganized.

In this episode of the Everything Electric podcast, Imogen Bhogal sits down with Tom Hurst, UK Country Director for Fastned, to pull back the curtain on the UK's rapid charging revolution. Tom explains why Fastned is moving beyond simple "parking bays with plugs" to build high-visibility, amenity-first charging hubs that keep you sheltered from the rain and your battery topped up at speeds of up to 400kW. They also dive into the "mammoth" joint venture with Places for London (TfL's property arm) and why legal contracts, not just grid power, are often the biggest hurdle to a seamless charging experience.   00:00 Welcome to Everything Electric 01:40 Who is Fastned?

☎️Schedule a Business Evaluation Call with The Construction Leading Edge Team HERE – If you've been listening to podcasts, reading books, going to conferences, and consuming business content for months, but your business still looks the same… this one's going to sting. In this episode of The Construction Leading Edge Podcast, I break down how construction business owners use podcasts, webinars and "research" as a way to numb the frustration of being stuck, instead of making the decisions that would actually change their business. I explain why waiting for perfect information is a myth, how indecision creates paralysis, and why the real risk isn't making the wrong move, it's making no move at all.  This episode is especially valuable for those of you who are working 50, 60, even 70 hour weeks, those who know they need to hire, raise prices, systemize, or get help, but keep pushing the decision down the road in the name of being "responsible." Remember: you don't have a knowledge problem. You have an action problem.

Bill Powers interviews Lara Exploration President and CEO Simon Ingram, highlighting Ingram's prior success leading Reservoir Minerals from $0.65 to $9.40 per share and creating roughly US$500 million in shareholder value at the time of the buyout by Nevsun Resources. Ingram recounts Reservoir's Serbia discovery—described as the world's 13th largest copper discovery since 1990—and notes the resulting mine now generates about 2% of Serbia's GDP. Lara Exploration is applying the same model and team while transitioning from prospect generator to developer through its 100%-owned flagship Planalto copper-gold project in Brazil. The 2025 PEA outlines an open-pit project producing about 36,000 tonnes of copper per year and processing about 8 million tonnes of ore, with estimated capex around $550 million. Using a $13,000/ton copper price, Ingram says the project value is about $1.2 billion at today's spot prices. The discussion covers Lara's valuation gap versus its market cap (~US$100–110 million), plans to de-risk via infill drilling and advancing to pre-feasibility, and exploration upside. Ingram emphasizes Brazil's infrastructure and permitting advantages in its operating region, including nearby major mines, access to low-cost power lines crossing the project, proximity to highways, a skilled mining workforce, and a government royalty structure where a significant portion returns to local municipalities. Powers and Ingram also discuss capital efficiency and shareholder alignment: ~50 million shares outstanding (about 53 million fully diluted), no warrants, ~2.7 million incentive options, management owning ~20%, and G&A under about C$1 million. 00:00 From 65¢ to $9.40: Reservoir Minerals' Serbian success story 01:29 Prospect Generator 101: Partnering to reduce exploration risk 03:32 Lara Exploration's flagship Planalto project Brazil: PEA, scale, and copper price leverage 06:00 De-risking plan: Pre-feasibility, infill drilling, and high-grade upside 06:41 Return on capital & timing the copper cycle (why now matters) 08:18 Jurisdiction & infrastructure: Why this Brazil project can get built 09:05 Portfolio, royalties, and capital discipline (50M shares, no rollbacks) 12:55 Team edge: Technical background, copper scarcity, and demand drivers 14:40 How the project stacks up: peers, capex, metallurgy, and simple processing 25:29 PEA rigor: Cost levers, power pricing, and engineering due diligence 28:24 Near-term catalysts & funding options: New license drilling and next steps 31:55 Wrap-up, tickers, and final podcast disclaimer https://laraexploration.com/ TSXV:LRA -- OTC:LRAXF Sponsor Lara Exploration pays MSE a United States dollar seven thousand per month coverage fee.

A dramatic move by the Trump administration to undo regulations of greenhouse gases could cost Wisconsin billions. A judge's ruling upholds state permits for a controversial oil and gas pipeline. And, we hear from a high school student who says Wisconsin should do more to foster youth entrepreneurship.

In this episode of The Black Men Think Podcast, the fellas unpack the real cost of staying comfortable. What feels like peace and stability can sometimes be fear in disguise. We dive into how comfort can quietly become a cage, keeping us in jobs we've outgrown, relationships that no longer challenge us, and routines that feel safe but limit our growth. We talk about the hidden price of playing it safe, from missed opportunities and creative stagnation to the regret that can build over time. The conversation also explores why change feels so heavy, especially for Black men navigating generational survival mindsets and the pressure to protect what we've built. In our Ask A Black Man segment, we answer the question: How do you know when it's time to leave something that's no longer challenging you? This episode challenges you to reflect on where you might be choosing comfort over growth and what it could be costing you.

SummaryIn this Coaches Roundtable episode, Chase and Chris answer your biggest questions about some of the most talked about health trends right now.They start by breaking down injectable peptides. What are they? Do they actually work? And are they safe? While peptides are being pushed hard online, there is very little long term research in healthy humans. Many are not FDA approved and can cost hundreds to thousands of dollars per month. Chase and Chris explain why most people should focus on sleep, strength training, nutrition, and stress management before even thinking about something like this.Next, they talk about hack squat foot placement. There is no single “best” position. Your foot placement changes which muscles are emphasized. Higher feet can target more glutes and hamstrings. Lower feet can target more quads. The best setup is the one that fits your goals and feels good on your body.They also cover ginger and turmeric shots. While these ingredients may help with inflammation, they are not magic. If your diet, stress, and sleep are out of control, a small wellness shot will not fix that. The basics still matter most.Finally, they answer several questions about creatine. They explain why weight gain from creatine is just water inside your muscles, not fat. They talk about how long it takes to work, when to take it, and whether it is safe for your kidneys. Creatine is one of the most researched supplements available and can help with strength, muscle retention, brain health, and even bone health.The big message of this episode is simple. Stop chasing trends. Master the fundamentals first.Chapters(00:00) Pink Webcam Problems and Opening Banter(02:00) What Are Injectable Peptides and Are They Worth It?(10:30) The Cost, Risks, and Lack of Research Behind Peptides(13:40) Best Foot Placement for the Hack Squat(18:45) Are Ginger and Turmeric Shots Actually Effective?(23:30) Creatine Water Weight Explained(25:00) How Long Creatine Takes to Work(27:00) Best Time to Take Creatine and How to Use It(29:00) Is Creatine Safe?

Jesus doesn't sugarcoat the cost of discipleship, but He offers a 100-fold reward—an eternal family, spiritual blessings, and more. In this episode, you'll discover: The Cost of Discipleship: What must you forsake to follow Christ? The Profit of Discipleship: The unimaginable rewards Jesus promises.

Had an AHA or Insight? Share it:Silence may or may not be a conscious decision. Many of us don't choose it deliberately but rather let it develop through small, reasonable choices. We are managing risk, protecting credibility, waiting for the right moment to say the right thing. And then that moment doesn't come and staying quiet becomes our default. It seems to be sensible especially when speaking up puts us in the crosshairs, exposes us to public shaming or cancellation, or creates real personal risk. There are plenty of examples out there when this goes wrong. Why would we take that kind of risk?That's why you remain neutral.You stay professional.You tell yourself it's strategic, temporary, or simply not your place.Over time, that silence becomes the standard. The line between discretion and compliance becomes blurry. What you choose not to say becomes as defining as what you do. Leadership narrows because the cost of speaking starts to feel higher than the cost of staying quiet.In this solo episode of The Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future, I examine silence as a leadership pattern and what it costs us over time—personally, professionally, and systemically.Drawing from history, spiritual principles, business strategy, and of course my own lived experience, I explore boundaries as orientation points rather than avoidance. A boundary that doesn't include a stand isn't a boundary at all.Our systems are under pressure. What you do now matters for your future. Leadership is not about being liked. It's about clarity, integrity, and the willingness to stand when it matters.This conversation stays centered on leader responsibility: how silence becomes complicit, how pressure creates false choices, how polarity is mistaken for extremism, and how values erode incrementally rather than all at once.#agency #speakup #FoundersOfTheFuture  #Leadership #Boundaries #EthicalLeadership Resources Mentioned:Website | LinkedIn | Instagram | YouTube | TikTok | Podcast | Substack_____________________We appreciate you, thank you for listening.

What happens when love slowly turns into manipulation? Ginny Priem shares her journey from a successful corporate career and a life that looked “perfect” on the outside to a relationship filled with gaslighting, financial abuse, infidelity, and emotional trauma she didn’t recognize until it nearly broke her. Together, we unpack how narcissistic abuse hides in plain sight, why red flags are so easy to miss, and how stress and intuition can show up physically when something is deeply wrong. This episode is about trusting your gut, understanding why “just leave” isn’t that simple, and learning how to rebuild your sense of self after betrayal. If you’ve ever questioned your reality, ignored your intuition, or wondered how someone ends up in a relationship like this... you are not alone. Plus, we explore what comes after leaving: breaking generational patterns, letting go of hustle culture, redefining success, and learning how to “unsubscribe” from people, habits, and expectations that no longer serve you. Content note: This episode discusses infidelity, emotional abuse, and medical trauma.

Somewhere in your life right now, indecision is costing you. There's a conversation you've been avoiding. A move in business you've been hesitating to make. A commitment to your game you keep postponing. And every single day you delay, it drains your energy, erodes your confidence, and chips away at your self-trust. In this episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, I break down why indecision is one of the most destructive habits high performers fall into—and how it silently sabotages your performance on the golf course, in business, and at home. We unpack the science behind cognitive load, the Zeigarnik effect, and decision fatigue to understand why "thinking about it" is often more exhausting than simply acting. I share powerful reframes, personal examples, and practical tools to help you close open loops, reclaim your mental bandwidth, and build confidence through decisive action. In this episode, you'll learn: Why indecision creates cognitive overload and drains your mental performance How open mental loops (the Zeigarnik effect) silently exhaust your energy Why indecision is often avoidance dressed up as analysis The difference between gathering information and delaying courage How decisive action builds identity-level confidence Why "what if it works?" is the more powerful question Practical prompts to help you close the loop and act today If you're serious about becoming a scratch golfer, scaling your business, or becoming the man you know you're capable of being—this is the episode that challenges you to finally make the decision you already know needs to be made.

Your brain hates uncertainty. Open loops drain energy until you close them. Waiting for certainty kills momentum; decisiveness builds clarity and confidence. Indecision is often avoidance disguised as "needing more time." You become someone who trusts himself by acting like someone who trusts himself. Key Quotes: "High performers don't collapse because they make bad decisions—they collapse because they don't make decisions at all." "Indecision is avoidance dressed up as analysis." "Clarity does not come from waiting. Clarity comes from action." "Indecision accelerates mental exhaustion because it consumes energy without producing resolution." "You become someone who trusts himself by acting like someone who trusts himself."

What if failure isn't something to avoid, but a skill to master? This episode breaks down why startups can't be built on certainty—new markets, new products, and new teams mean you're guaranteed to be wrong a lot. The goal isn't to “be right,” it's rapid error correction: make decisions, ship anyway, learn fast, and recover even faster. The conversation covers how avoiding failure leads to paralysis (“steering a parked car”), why indecision compounds in startups, and how to reduce risk by keeping failures small, reversible, and frequent (kill switches, stop rules, and capped losses). They share early personal stories—school fights and a childhood cattle business collapse—to show how overcoming real consequences builds confidence and resilience. Practical examples include choosing an ICP quickly, improving poor conversion rates through iteration, using vesting/cliffs when picking co-founders, and why even top VCs still miss constantly. The key takeaway: the most dangerous competitor is the one who isn't afraid to get hit, recover, and keep coming back—because that's as close to “invincible” as a founder can get.02:01 Failure Isn't the Enemy: Stop Optimizing for Being Right02:59 The Founder Reality: Uncertainty, Rapid Error Correction & the Boxing Analogy03:44 Safety vs Startups: Why Most People Avoid the Risk05:24 ‘Steering a Parked Car': Indecision Kills Startups07:54 Make the Call, Learn Fast: Small Failures, Big Truths09:02 We're Conditioned to Fear Failure (School, Work, Relationships)11:59 Will's Origin Story: Jason Barker and Learning to Beat the Monster14:48 Choosing to Fail on Purpose: Turning Fear into a Superpower17:06 Ryan's First Big Failure: The Farm/Cattle Business Lesson Begins17:45 Cash-Strapped Expansion: Inventory Leverage & a Brutal Winter18:09 When the Side Hustle Needs a Side Hustle (and the Cost of Neglect)18:35 Failing Hard at 12: Losing Animals and Learning to Plan19:51 Founders Don't Win by Being Right—They Win by Taking Hits21:36 Shipping While Wrong: Marketing Experiments, MVPs, and Momentum22:51 Hiring, Co-Founders & Investors: Why Nobody Can Pick Perfectly24:00 The Real Skill: Recovering From Failure (Resilience as a Reflex)30:26 Small Blast Radius, High Frequency: Reversible Bets & Kill Switches31:13 Failure Is Portable: Building a House, Living ‘Why Not,' No RegretsResources:Startup Therapy Podcasthttps://www.startups.com/community/startup-therapyWebsitehttps://www.startups.com/beginLinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/startups-co/Join our Network of Top FoundersWil Schroterhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/wilschroter/Ryan Rutanhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-rutan/What to listen for:

What happens when the stage you prayed for becomes the altar your family needed?In this powerful episode of the Rooted in Christ Podcast, Eric Stephens sits down with Christian hip-hop artist Craig Wallace for a raw and heartfelt conversation about purpose, obedience, and the true mission behind the music.Craig shares how a dream of performing on big stages wasn't about fame—but about seeing his family saved. After performing at Beyond the Walls, that dream became reality when his uncle gave his life back to Christ. From that moment, the mission was clear: this isn't about lights, platforms, or applause—it's about souls.The conversation dives deep into:Craig's transformation from secular music to fully surrendered faithTurning down pressure to “water down” the name of JesusNavigating pride, platforms, and “celebrity culture” in Christian spacesThe importance of servant leadership and humilityOvercoming rejection in the industrySeeking the Kingdom first (Matthew 6:33) as an artistWhy fruit matters more than fameCraig also opens up about his journey as a former D1 athlete, walking away from worldly identity, embracing marriage and fatherhood, and recently receiving his late grandfather's community award—an honor that meant more than any Grammy ever could.If you're an artist, leader, or believer wrestling with calling, comparison, or culture—this episode will challenge and encourage you to stay rooted, stay humble, and keep Jesus at the center.

Donal Whelton, Head of Agri at AIB, joins Stuart Childs to discuss the financial situation that Irish dairy farmers are currently in and what challenges they may face and the solutions they may require in 2026. Donal says that the Irish dairy sector is entering 2026 from a position of financial strength. Farm debt levels are nearly half of what they were in 2009. Meanwhile, farm cash balances have doubled over the same period. Overdraft utilisation in dairy is currently at its second lowest in 20 years and despite tighter milk prices this year, the sector overall has stronger balance sheets than in previous downturns. Cost inflation is now the primary financial pressure. Total dairy farm operating costs have risen by 46% since 2020 with the key drivers of this being fertiliser and energy and concentrate feed which is up 56% and now averaging 9 c/L of production cost. Production costs range from mid-30s to mid-50s c/L, creating major resilience differences between farms. Knowing your break-even milk price, preparing 2025 accounts early (especially for tax liabilities), and targeting cost control will be important this year. Finally, Donal offers some advice around being prepared for a year like 2026, he recommends financial buffers such as €500 per cow working capital available at start of year and where debt level is >€3,000/cow, hold a reserve to cover 12 months of repayments.  Farmers should complete simple forward cashflow projections (even in a notebook) to quantify funding needs accurately before approaching banks. Consider financing capital projects or tax liabilities rather than depleting cash. Banks can offer overdraft increases, term loans, interest-only options, or retrospective CapEx funding to help ease any cashflow pressures people might experience however, it is important that people identify pressure early and engage early as cashflow support is more effective when proactively structured than reactively requested. For more episodes from the Dairy Edge podcast go to the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/the-dairy-edge-podcast/ The Dairy Edge is a co-production with LastCastMedia.com

Prabhdeep Sekhon, CEO of Eclipse Energy, breaks down the hydrogen rainbow and why it doesn't tell the whole story about cost, carbon intensity, and water use. From farm boy in Canada to petroleum engineer in the Bakken to clean tech founder, Prab explains how his team is using microbes to eat leftover oil in abandoned fields and produce hydrogen without water, turning billion-dollar liabilities into clean energy assets. He walks through their first-of-a-kind California project that hit 40% hydrogen production, the West Texas deployments coming next, and why co-locating data centers in oil fields solves both the molecule transport problem and the cooling water challenge. They discuss hitting $0.50 per kilogram hydrogen by 2028, why natural gas isn't going anywhere, and how oil and gas companies are actually paying them to figure out the future of their abandoned reservoirs.Join the conversation shaping the future of energy.Collide is the community where oil & gas professionals connect, share insights, and solve real-world problems together.

Disappearing Neighbors, Upended Constitutional Norms, ans an Artist's Response to ICE   Curtis Chang talks with singer-songwriter and Twin Cities resident Sara Groves about heightened ICE activity in Minneapolis–Saint Paul and why the consequences for families and neighborhoods persist after the headlines fade. Groves challenges claims that "protesters are paid agitators" or that "ICE targets only criminals," naming the emotional and spiritual toll alongside concerns about due process and constitutional overreach. They discuss "borrowed courage," the cost of public witness—when refusing to defend the indefensible—and how Christians can resist dehumanization by loving neighbors and cultivating beauty amid fear and division.   Sign up for the Good Faith Newsletter   02:45 - Sara's Eyewitness Account of ICE Activity 07:08 - Challenging Misconceptions and Narratives 10:18 - Refugees and Legal Overreach 13:48 - Has Their Been A Public Reaction to Sara's Advocacy? 18:43 - Local Tragedies and Finding Borrowed Courage 23:44 - Why Do Some Stay Silent or Disengaged? 25:31 - Losing Fans and the Cost of Advocacy 35:41 - What Is the Artist's Response? 43:42 - The Challenges For Sensitive Souls Engaging in Social Justice  44:38 - A Message to Listeners Beyond Minnesota   Scriptures: Matthew 22:37-39 (ESV) Mark 12:29-31 (ESV) Isaiah 1:18 (ESV) Ephesians 6:10-18 (ESV)   Mentioned in This Episode: Video from Sara's social media bearing witness to current event s in Minnesota Learn about the work of International Justice Mission MPR articles about the killing of Philando Castile MPR articles about the murder of George Floyd Two 17-year-old U.S. citizens detained at Target (local news video) Federal Court Blocks: "Operation PARRIS," Orders Release of Detained Refugees More about Makoto Fujimura Kazuo Ishiguro's The Buried Giant Flannery O'Connor's Some Aspects of the Grotesque in Southern Fiction (read by O'Connor) Dorcas Thomson's Social Justice for the Sensitive Soul Learn about the Art House North Sara Groves' album What Makes It Through?
