What if the most toxic thing in your home isn't a chemical—but a mindset? Clean living advocate and first-time author Lindsay Dahl returns to unpack the nuanced middle ground of wellness, environmental health, and personal agency. Together, we explore the emotional toll of trying to “do it all right,” the dangers of black-and-white thinking in the age of social media, and why real change takes both individual action and systemic accountability. We talk spatulas and seed oils, fast fashion and flame retardants, fear and freedom—and why being a pragmatist in today's digital landscape is both radical and necessary.

Dave Daniels, part-owner of Mighty Grand Dairy in Kenosha County, tells Ben Jarboe about how broadband infrastructure and high-speed internet have allowed him to further the operation with new technology. Soggy or dry? Breezy or muggy? We'll get it all this weekend, according to Stu Muck during the Compeer Financial Ag Weather Forecast. The latest Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation Marketbasket Survey shows Wisconsinites may be spending a bit more this year for their Fourth of July barbecues. Ben Jarboe catches up with WFBF's Cassie Sonnentag. She says protein, such as ground beef and eggs, is driving the price. Heidi Knuth was born into the hobby of collecting John Deere equipment. She takes pride in pursuing a passion her parents instilled in her. Kiley Allan reports. Today, we head to Monroe, where Brian and Heidi Kent run Heidi’s Happy Acres. Brian says the cool weather to start the growing season wasn't ideal for sweet corn -- the soil wasn't warm enough, and the corn came up slowly and unevenly. He had to do some replanting. Now, the corn is looking healthier after the heat wave that came through. He grows white and purple varieties.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Does a 1% AUM fee really cost you 25% of your returns? Tim Ulbrich and Tim Baker run the numbers and give you a framework to evaluate the real cost and the real value of financial planning. Episode Summary YFP Co-Founder & CEO, Tim Ulbrich, PharmD, and YFP Co-Founder & COO, Tim Baker, CFP®, RLP®, RICP®, tackle a common concern about working with a financial advisor: Does paying a 1% fee for assets under management (AUM) really eat away a quarter of your investment gains over time? We run the actual numbers using compound interest calculators to see how much a 1% advisory fee could cost over the long term and whether the 25% claim holds true. But this episode isn't just about math. Tim and Tim also zoom out to look at the bigger picture: What's the ROI of the fee you're paying? Because it's not just about investment returns, it's also about the potential behavioral coaching, tax strategies, withdrawal planning, and comprehensive financial guidance that a good advisor brings to the table. Whether you're a die-hard DIY investor, already working with an advisor, or considering working with a financial planner for the first time, this episode will give you a practical framework to evaluate the real cost and real value of financial advice.

New York Times reporter Ernesto Londoño joins co-hosts V.V. Ganeshananthan and Whitney Terrell to discuss the recent murder of Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman, which has made headlines as local politicians in the U.S. are rarely targeted for assassination. Londoño describes how a gunman posing as law enforcement went to the homes of several state politicians, killing Hortman and her husband Mark and gravely injuring Democratic state senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. Londoño recounts how the No Kings Rally at the Minnesota capitol later that day honored the crime's victims in addition to protesting President Trump. Londoño details the alleged attacker's background and debunks conspiracy theories about possible motives. Comparing the current circumstances to his own childhood in Colombia, where political attacks on the local level were common, Londoño discusses how Trump “redrew the rules of acceptable political discourse,” and how increasing violence against lawmakers may impact who is willing to serve.

Send us a text! (add your email to get a response)Do you ever feel like you're walking on eggshells around someone who constantly needs reassurance? In this episode, we tackle anxious attachment from a different angle - not just what it feels like to be anxiously attached, but how that attachment style can impact the self-esteem and identity of those on the receiving end.Drawing from personal experiences, we explore how anxious attachment manifests beyond just seeking love and reassurance. When someone constantly questions whether you love them enough, it can lead to profound questions about your character: Am I really selfish? Am I incapable of loving properly? We unpack the phenomenon of "projection," where anxiously attached people might interpret neutral actions through their lens of insecurity, creating narratives that shift how you see yourself. We also address how kernels of truth can be exploited to create damaging narratives - how normal human traits can be weaponized to support an anxious person's fear that they're not loved enough.For both those with anxious attachment patterns and those on the receiving end or "the avoidant attached" folks, we offer practical strategies. Rather than pathologizing either side, we emphasize how understanding these dynamics can lead to healthier connections where both people's identities remain intact. **Do attachment insecurities mean blow-up fights in your relationship?

Austin Kleon has built a life around making art—and making choices. In this candid conversation, the bestselling author of Steal Like an Artist opens up about the cost of creativity, the pressure of success, and the freedom that comes from knowing what's enough. From turning down life-changing sums of money to driving an old Honda with pride, Austin reflects on how his values have shaped both his art and his bank account. Austin and Carl explore the emotional and financial tradeoffs of creative work, what it means to stay grounded in a world obsessed with growth, and how money can be both a stabilizer and a source of chaos. Austin also reveals the question he'd ask if money were a person—and why he still wrestles with switching from a mindset of scarcity to one of sufficiency.

Ever catch yourself trying to protect someone from their own emotions—like disappointment, anger, or sadness? You're not alone. In this episode, we explore the sneaky ways many of us—especially those with fearful avoidant attachment—take on emotional responsibility that was never ours to begin with.We break down how childhood conditioning taught us to manage other people's feelings as a form of survival, and why that habit lingers long into adulthood. Whether you're people-pleasing, over-giving, or avoiding conflict altogether, these patterns might feel like kindness, but they come at a cost: your own emotional well-being and the other person's ability to take ownership of their experience.You'll learn why trying to “protect” others from hard emotions often leads to resentment, and how choosing short-term discomfort can actually build stronger, more honest relationships.Discover your attachment style to break free from old relationship patterns.

Today an encore presentation of an episode that originally aired on June 20th. The rush to get to nation-building projects has seen at least two governments, Ottawa and Queen's Park in Ontario, push for legislation that will speed the process along. That has caused some concern by those who feel the push may be too fast. Chantal Hebert and Rob Russo are here to talk about that and much more.

The Kansas City Police Department pays out settlements for crashes for which it takes responsibility. A 10-month KCUR investigation uncovered how often Kansas City police wreck their vehicles — and the cost to taxpayers.

In this episode, we continue on with Luke 6:12-26. In these verses we read of Jesus' calling of the 12, healing the multitudes, and the Beatitudes. Together we discuss what can happen when we allow our focus to be Christ alone. Rather than allowing our differences to divide us, when our focus is Jesus alone, even the most diverse and different people can find unity in Him and for the sake of His upside down Kingdom. And further, as we focus on Jesus, establishing our dependence on Him alone, we find true blessing despite the circumstances of life that we may be facing because we have found what/Who is better.

They answered Pharaoh, "Your servants are shepherds, both we and our ancestors," 4 and added, "We have come to live in the land, because in the land of Kena`an there is no place to pasture your servant's flocks, the famine is so severe there. Therefore, please, let your servants live in the land of Goshen."Genesis 47:5 Pharaoh said to Yosef, "Your father and brothers have come to you, 6 and the land of Egypt lies before you. Have your father and brothers live on the best property in the country — let them live in the land of Goshen. Moreover, if you know that some of them are particularly competent, put them in charge of my livestock."Genesis 47:7 Yosef then brought in Ya`akov his father and presented him to Pharaoh, and Ya`akov blessed Pharaoh. 8 Pharaoh asked Ya`akov, "How old are you?" 9 and Ya`akov replied, "The time of my stay on earth has been 130 years; they have been few and difficult, fewer than the years my ancestors lived." 10 Then Ya`akov blessed Pharaoh and left his presence.Genesis 47:11 Yosef found a place for his father and brothers and gave them property in the land of Egypt, in the best region of the country, in the land of Ra`amses, as Pharaoh had ordered. 12 Yosef provided food for his father, his brothers and all his father's household, taking full care of even the youngest.Genesis 47:13 There was no food anywhere, for the famine was very severe, so that both Egypt and Kena`an grew weak from hunger. 14 Yosef collected all the money there was in Egypt and Kena`an in exchange for the grain they bought, and put the money in Pharaoh's treasury. 15 When all the money in Egypt had been spent, and likewise in Kena`an, all the Egyptians approached Yosef and said, "Give us something to eat, even though we have no money; why should we die before your eyes?" Genesis 47:16 Yosef replied, "Give me your livestock. If you don't have money, I will give you food in exchange for your livestock." 17 So they brought Yosef their livestock; and Yosef gave them food in exchange for the horses, flocks, cattle and donkeys — all that year he provided them with food in exchange for all their livestock.Genesis 47:18 When that year was over, they approached Yosef again and said to him, "We won't hide from my lord that all our money is spent, and the herds of livestock belong to my lord. We have nothing left, as my lord can see, but our bodies and our land. 19 Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for food, and we and our land will be enslaved to Pharaoh. But also give us seed to plant, so that we can stay alive and not die, and so that the land won't become barren." Genesis 47:20 So Yosef acquired all the land in Egypt for Pharaoh, as one by one the Egyptians sold their fields, because the famine weighed on them so severely. Thus the land became the property of Pharaoh. 21 As for the people, he reduced them to serfdom city by city, from one end of Egypt's territory to the other. 22 Only the priests' land did he not acquire, because the priests were entitled to provisions from Pharaoh, and they ate from what Pharaoh provided them; therefore they did not sell their land.Genesis 47:23 Then Yosef said to the people, "As of today I have acquired you and your land for Pharaoh. Here is seed for you to sow the land. 24 When harvest time comes, you are to give twenty percent to Pharaoh; eighty percent will be yours to keep for seed to plant in the fields, as well as for your food and for that of your households and your little ones."Genesis 47:25 They replied, "You have saved our lives! So if it pleases my lord, we will be Pharaoh's slaves." 26 Yosef made it a law for the country of Egypt, valid to this day, that Pharaoh should have twenty percent. Only the property belonging to the priests did not become Pharaoh's.Genesis 47:27 Isra'el lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. They acquired possessions in it and were productive, and their numbers multiplied greatly.Genesis 47:28 Ya`akov lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years; thus Ya`akov lived to be 147 years old. 29 The time came when Isra'el was approaching death; so he called for his son Yosef and said to him, "If you truly love me, please put your hand under my thigh and pledge that, out of consideration for me, you will not bury me in Egypt. 30 Rather, when I sleep with my fathers, you are to carry me out of Egypt and bury me where they are buried." He replied, "I will do as you have said." 31 He said, "Swear it to me," and he swore to him. Then Isra'el bowed down at the head of his bed.https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes%208%3A14-16&version=CJBEcclesiastes 8:14-1614 There is something frustrating that occurs on earth, namely, that there are righteous people to whom things happen as if they were doing wicked deeds; and, again, there are wicked people to whom things happen as if they were doing righteous deeds. I say that this too is pointless. 15 So I recommend enjoyment — a person can do nothing better under the sun than eat, drink and enjoy himself; this is what should accompany him as he does his work for as long as God gives him to live under the sun. 16 When I applied myself to gain wisdom and to observe how people occupy themselves on earth, that people's eyes don't see sleep either by day or by night,Credit to:https://unsplash.com/photos/person-holding-brown-leather-bifold-wallet-3aGZ7a97qwAhttps://unsplash.com/photos/blue-and-black-truck-near-brown-building-during-daytime-3jej1kT20Q4

What if slowing down isn't a setback, but a turning point? In this episode, Stephanie explores how midlife often presses pause on our hustle-filled lives - and what looks at first like a punishment is usually an invitation. Through powerful stories from past guests and her own experience, she unpacks how stillness can help us reconnect with what really matters—and why our worth was never meant to be measured by productivity. If you've been feeling the pull to step off the hamster wheel (or if life has already pushed you off), this episode offers the clarity, compassion, and company you didn't know you needed.Reflections: The Cost of Hustle in MidlifeIn this episode, Stephanie explores the hard-earned wisdom that comes when midlife forces us to slow down. Whether through burnout, illness, or emotional exhaustion, many of us hit a moment where hustle stops working, and stillness becomes not just necessary, but enlightening. Drawing from past guest stories and her own experience, Stephanie reflects on how slowing down can shift our relationship with productivity, identity, and self-worth. Midlife, it turns out, might just be the invitation we need to listen more closely to the voice within—and discover a gentler, more honest way of being.In this episode, you'll hear:Why hustle is so deeply ingrained for many of us—and how it eventually starts to break downThe breaking points that forced past guests like Anna Brooke, Tina Bakehouse, and Jennifer Arthurton to stop pushingHow quiet moments revealed surprising truths for Stephanie Rose and Steve VincentThe disorientation (and gift) of realizing you don't really know yourselfThe difference between judgment and discernment—and why it mattersHow slowing down opens space to reconnect with long-lost parts of ourselvesStephanie's personal journey toward redefining productivity on her own termSlowing down isn't the end of ambition—it's the beginning of wisdom. In the stillness, we stop performing life and start living inside it. Whether midlife has already forced your pause or you're just beginning to question the pace, this episode is a gentle reminder that your inner voice is worth listening to—and it's probably not asking you to hustle.If this episode resonated with you, please take a moment to rate, follow, and share The Big Four Oh with a friend.

On her first day as CEO of PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi fired her general counsel. Then rehired him before dinner. It wasn't a stunt. It was a signal.  She ran a $200 billion empire the same way she ran her life: with surgical precision, uncompromising standards, and an allergy to corporate theater. But here's what separates this conversation from every other CEO interview: she tells you what her massive ambition cost her and her family. What it means to carry the hopes of millions who look like you. What happens when a strategy you bet your career on starts to crumble. She reveals her private system for tracking 400 rising stars inside of a corporate giant and the advice Steve Jobs gave her that changed everything.  If you've ever felt the pull between ambition and identity, this one's for you. Indra doesn't just talk about power. She shows what it costs.  Approximate timestamps: Subject to variation due to dynamically inserted ads: （03:53）Growing Up In India （11:07） Lessons From Working In Consulting （21:36） Being Direct As A Leader / Delivering A Message That Gets Heard （24:14） Developing Talent （26:42）How To Minimize Office Politics （32:56）Prioritizing Work / Finding Balance （37:30）Turnover After A CEO Change （42:10） CEO Vs Board Member （46:22）Implementable Change In A Company （48:17） Removing Friction Instead Of Using Force （48:34）How To Be A Good Board Member （49:47）Lessons From Amazon （51:36） Leading Through Crisis （55:18） Dealing With Activist Investors （59:13） Women As CEOS / Biases In The Workplace （01:00:42) Equality of Opportunity / How To Hire The Best （01:03:50）Bias In Performance Reviews （01:05:27）Almost Quitting PepsiCo （01:07:05）What I Learned From Steve Jobs （01:11:51）Lessons From Costco And Walmart （01:20:00）Secrets to PepsiCo Merchandising （01:21:01）Outsourcing Bottlers At PepsiCo Then Reversing The Decision （01:22:16）Making Decisions At A Multi-Billion Dollar Company （01:23:56）Lessons From Acquisitions （01:27:09) Traits Of A High Performing Employee （01:29:01） Remote Work Vs In Office Thanks to our sponsors for supporting this episode: NORDVPN: To get the best discount off your NordVPN plan go to ⁠⁠⁠nordvpn.com/KNOWLEDGEPROJECT⁠⁠.

As Benjamin Franklin famously said, “In this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes.” But for online business owners, taxes aren't always so certain, especially when it comes to sales tax. In this episode, we're joined by Jessica Rhoads. Jessica is an internationally experienced CPA and self-confessed “dumpster fire accountant” who specializes in helping business owners untangle messy tax situations. We cover the key types of taxes every entrepreneur should understand, and zoom in on the one that's most commonly misunderstood, and most likely to derail a future exit: sales tax. Jessica breaks down how sales tax applies to non-tangible goods like SaaS products and apps, what triggers a sales tax nexus, and why ignoring it can lead to massive headaches during due diligence.

If bladder issues in menopause are keeping you from jumping for bone density or for jumping for joy. Or if laughing and sneezing or a need to consider hydration needs against access to a bathroom are real life and every day concerns you… we've got you today.  Bladder issues in menopause don't need to keep you from activities, and they may come with signs and symptoms that aren't the obvious urgency, burning or leakage. The information here about testing beyond traditional options just might make you want to re-listen and share this one.    My Guest: Dr Kelly McCann is a board certified internist and pediatrician specializing in functional, integrative and environmental medicine. She graduated Brown undergrad, Tulane Med School, fellowship in Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona. Her medical practice, the Spring Center, is located in Southern California. She hosted virtual summits on MCAS and can be found on many podcasts, summits and @drkellymccann.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:09:09] What is a bacterial biofilm and how does that relate to bladder issues in women? [00:08:21] How do you know if you have a biofilm colonization? [00:13:26] Can you explain the testing technology and how it differs from a urinalysis and urine culture? [00:25:09] Other than UTIs and bladder issues, what might be some other signs that bacterial biofilms might be an issue?  [00:26:55] Are there other things that we should understand about this? (often associated with hypercoagulability which can mean an increased risk for heart disease) [00:30:58] Are there other options before or instead of antibiotics? If you personally got results back suggesting you do have bacteria, would you go the route of herbs or antibiotics?  [00:35:00] Cost of the test? And is it covered?    Bacterial Biofilm as Bladder Issues in Menopause   What is a Bacterial Biofilm? Mucus-like structures where bacteria live, can be found in the mouth, nose, GI tract, vagina, etc. These bacterial “homes” protect microbes from detection in standard lab tests. That means you can have symptoms, but your test results still show “normal.”   What is Next Generation Sequencing? Gives a complete and accurate picture of what's causing  your symptoms, even when your urinalysis and cultures are ‘normal'. Procedure: Scans the DNA of everything present in your sample (e.g. urine). Matches it to a vast DNA library of known organisms. Identifies exactly which microbes are in your bladder, how many, and in what percentages. Recommends treatment options by checking the medical literature for which antibiotics are effective against each bacteria. MicroGenDX does this test.   Signs You Might Have Biofilm Colonization: Chronic bladder symptoms (urgency, frequency, burning) without a confirmed UTI Recurrent UTIs that don't resolve or keep returning “Normal” urine tests but ongoing discomfort Other unexplained inflammation-driven symptoms like fatigue, rashes, headaches, joint pain, and more.   Relation to Heart Disease: Bacteria can travel from brushing your teeth and can end up in your coronary arteries and bladder. Biofilms can trigger clot formation for individuals who are genetically predisposed to forming clots or fibrin mesh. Systemic inflammation risk for individuals with low-level bacterial colonization that their body   Connect with Kelly: Website - Dr. Kelly McCann Website - The Spring Center Facebook - Dr. Kelly McCann Instagram - @drkellymccann    Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - Solving Sleep Issues with CBD and Other Perimenopause Symptom Solutions Next Episode - What Stem Cell Therapy Taught Me About Recovery, Mindset, and Reinventing Downtime More Like This - True Core Confidence: Revolutionizing Pelvic Floor Fitness After 40   Resources: Short & Easy Exercise videos in this 5 Day Flip Challenge.
