What if the answer to feeling stuck in business wasn't doing more… but becoming the embodiment of overflow? In this episode, Cait explores the deeper nuance behind "giving more" and explains why overflow is not about overextending yourself, giving away your boundaries, or pouring from an empty cup. If you've been feeling discouraged by low engagement, slow sales, or resistance to showing up online, this episode will help you reframe what true overflow actually looks like and how to create movement again without burnout or resentment. Tune in to hear: Why overflow is rooted in reciprocity, not self-sacrifice The difference between generosity and overgiving How contraction and resentment can reveal misalignment in business Why withholding your energy can create even more stagnation The powerful "muscle test" to know what you should and shouldn't give How to become the catalyst for momentum when things feel slow Why your energy and presence are often the most valuable thing you offer The role visibility, leadership, and connection play in creating overflow Practical ways to lead with generosity without violating your boundaries How to shift from scarcity and waiting into circulation and movement   If this episode resonates with you, don't forget to share it to your stories and tag @themillionairemother, or leave a 5-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts-it helps more mamas find this show.

During the pandemic, Lara Blair found herself with a lot of time on her hands. With her Camas photography studio sitting idle, Blair reminisced about her childhood and two things that brought her joy as a 10-year-old: donuts and dollhouses. Thanks to how-to videos she saw on YouTube, she soon began making sculptures of donuts from clay, adorned with sprinkles and surreal, whimsical elements such as tiny people with ropes climbing up their frosted, candy-colored sides.    Today, Blair works full time as a small-scale artist creating intricate dioramas, shadow boxes, commissioned pieces and other tiny, sculpted works she sells online or at Gallery 408 in Camas. The Columbian recently profiled Blair and a miniature version of the art gallery she designed and helped create with the gallery’s co-owners featuring tiny, painted canvases and sculptures Blair and other local artists, including Portland painter Bianca Youngers, contributed.     The mini gallery was inspired by a conversation Blair had with Rachael Harms Mahlandt, a Portlander who co-created the PDX Sidewalk Joy Map that has since expanded worldwide. Harms Mahlandt was one of the featured guests on Blair’s new podcast, “Tiny Worlds, Big Stories.” Blair and Youngers talk with us about making small-scale art that can spark delight and childlike wonder for its creators and audiences alike.

About 60 percent of Gen Z is thinking about forgoing a traditional college degree to become electricians, carpenters, plumbers, or other skilled tradespeople. Even so, the trades are still considered a “boys club,” with women, nonbinary, and LGBTQ+ people as the minority in the industry. Now, a local initiative is trying to create a space for them to network professionally and build community. We hear from three local tradespeople about the new Queer Contractors Collective as we mark Pride Month.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 076: The Giant Surveillance Map Canada Wants to Build on Every Citizen, Encryption Backdoors Coming to Bill C-22, and What Bitcoiners Must Know | Dr. Michael GeistCanada's Bill C-22 would force companies to retain your metadata for up to 12 months, potentially mandate encryption backdoors, and could push Signal out of Canada entirely — and it affects Five Eyes allies including Americans.In this episode, legal scholar and digital rights expert Professor Michael Geist breaks down exactly what's in Bill C-22 (Canada's lawful access legislation), why mandatory metadata retention is far more invasive than the government admits, and how the bill contradicts Canada's own stated commitment to privacy rights. You'll learn why Signal has said it cannot operate under these requirements, how Five Eyes intelligence sharing means American data could be swept into this net, and what ordinary Canadians can actually do before Parliament reconvenes in September 2026. You'll also see how Canada's "AI for All" strategy is in direct tension with its surveillance ambitions — and why Professor Geist says you can't create a fundamental right to privacy in the morning and mandate metadata collection in the afternoon.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:03 - Professor Michael Geist on Bill C-221:57 - Lawful Access and the Surveillance Debate3:22 - Bill C-22 Metadata Retention and Encryption6:17 - Why Metadata Reveals More Than Content8:01 - Police Use Case for Mass Metadata9:24 - Evidence Justifying New Surveillance Powers11:19 - Bill C-22 Supreme Court Challenge Risk12:47 - Five Eyes Data Sharing Concerns14:27 - Global Surveillance Laws in Australia and UK18:12 - Signal Threatens to Exit Canada19:54 - Economic Risks to Canadian Tech Sector20:53 - Privacy Rights Versus Metadata Mandates22:36 - How Canadians Can Push Back on Bill C-2226:47 - Canada's AI for All Strategy Explained31:16 - Digital Sovereignty and Foreign Data Centers37:16 - Gaps in the AI Strategy39:25 - Social Media Age Verification Rules43:39 - Final Thoughts From Professor Geist

When markets become uncertain, most investors retreat. The smartest investors start paying attention. In this episode of Keeping It Real Estate, Dan Brisse explains why economic chaos often creates the best opportunities in multifamily real estate. He breaks down how rising interest rates, tighter lending conditions, distressed sellers, and market volatility are reshaping the investment landscape—and why institutional investors often become more aggressive during these periods. Dan discusses the difference between volatility and permanent loss, the dangers of overleveraged debt, and the costly mistakes many investors made during the low-interest-rate boom. He also shares why disciplined underwriting, fixed-rate debt, strong market fundamentals, and patient capital are critical for navigating challenging market cycles. You'll learn how wealth transfers during liquidity crises, why many distressed properties are suffering from debt problems rather than operational problems, and how experienced investors position themselves to capitalize on opportunities while others remain frozen by fear. If you want to understand how professional investors think during uncertain markets—and how to identify opportunities when others see risk—this episode breaks it down clearly.

In this episode of the Be Fabbo Podcast, discover why embracing simplicity can be the most powerful strategy for building momentum in your business and life. The conversation focused on how, in times of slow growth or uncertainty, our instinct is often to add more: more services, more platforms, more offers. One concept discussed was how complexity can create the illusion of productivity while actually draining your energy and stalling your real progress.A key theme that emerged was the distinction between adding for the sake of feeling busy versus strategically removing what no longer serves you. The discussion explored the courage required to let go of outdated offers, overly-complicated systems, or obligations that scatter your attention. Several points were raised, including that clarity and complexity cannot coexist and that true growth often comes from embracing the simplest version of your work.Listeners are invited to reflect on their own businesses this week: What can you remove to create more clarity, energy, and flow? Dive into practical strategies and mindset shifts to help you honor your purpose while making space for what truly matters. For those seeking deeper reflection, the episode also introduces guided audio prompts and additional resources on Substack.Tune in for a practical conversation packed with actionable advice on why less structure can create more momentum—so you can thrive with profit, purpose, and joy.Let's keep the FABBO convo going, send me a text!Support the showThank you for being a FABBO listener and supporting the Be Fabbo Podcast

Online summits have been a staple list building and authority boosting strategy for over a decade. Not only do summits help hosts grow their audience, a well-run virtual event gives speakers a platform to share their expertise, and create opportunities for attendees to learn from a variety of experts in one place. But lately I've noticed that many summits are experiencing diminishing returns. So, why are so many of them falling flat? In Episode 494 of Amplify Your Success Podcast, I talk about a pattern I've been noticing after participating in hundreds of online events over the last fifteen years. Registrations are shrinking, participation is low, speakers are seeing diminishing returns, and audiences are walking away without a lot of information, but not true transformation. This isn't about online summits being ineffective. In fact, I'm still a big believer in virtual events as a powerful visibility strategy. The challenge is that many events have shifted from creating meaningful transformation to being a transaction. The focus becomes registrations, list growth, and exposure while the deeper opportunity for connection, collaboration, and community gets left behind. In this episode, I explore what's possible for hosts, speakers, and attendees if the model changes as we move into a new era of business built on belonging, relationships, and shared experiences. If you've hosted an online summit, spoken at virtual events, or found yourself signing up for event after event without seeing meaningful results, this conversation will help you look at the role of virtual events differently and identify what creates lasting momentum instead of temporary attention. Key Takeaways: [00:00] Why many online summits generate registrations but fail to create meaningful momentum. [03:59] How the visibility strategies that worked in previous years are beginning to lose effectiveness. [07:17] Why prioritizing more speakers over a better attendee experience often creates overwhelm instead of value. [09:33] The hidden cost of relying on speakers to continuously build event audiences. [10:16] How speaker saturation contributes to declining engagement and weaker event outcomes. [12:56] Why collaboration between speakers is often the missing ingredient in virtual events. [14:29] What declining participation rates reveal about attendee behavior and event fatigue. [15:26] How information overload prevents attendees from fully engaging with event content. [18:25] Why community and belonging are becoming more important than information alone. [20:05] The role connection, interaction, and relationships play in creating transformation. [21:51] How attendees can get more value from events by actively engaging instead of passively consuming. [23:24] Why hosts need to focus on depth, curation, and meaningful experiences over bigger numbers. [25:07] How community-driven experiences create stronger opportunities, collaborations, and long-term growth.   Resources Mentioned in This Episode:   Join me on Substack here to discover what's working now as our industry continues to evolve.

Send me a some feedback!In this episode, Mike explores one of the most transformative realizations in personal growth and self-leadership: you do not experience life through your circumstances—you experience life through your emotions. Drawing from his own journey with imposter syndrome, executive leadership, entrepreneurship, and coaching, he reveals how the gap between your inner world and outer world creates unnecessary suffering, even when success, wealth, love, and opportunity are already present.At the heart of this conversation is the understanding that most people aren't actually chasing money, success, relationships, or achievement. They're chasing the emotions they've assigned to those things. The challenge is that no external circumstance can permanently change your internal experience. True transformation happens when you learn to release old emotional patterns, embody new emotional states, and consciously train your nervous system to receive the life you've already created.Key Takeaways1. The feelings in your body are real, but they are often lying to you. Just because you feel inadequate, unsuccessful, unloved, or insecure doesn't mean those feelings accurately reflect reality.2. Imposter syndrome is a mismatch between your inner world and your outer world. When your achievements expand but your internal identity doesn't, you continue feeling like a fraud despite evidence of success. 3. Most people don't want the thing—they want the feeling they believe the thing will provide. Money, relationships, business success, travel, and achievement are often emotional pursuits disguised as external goals.4. Embodiment is allowing yourself to feel now what you've been waiting for circumstances to give you. The body must receive the emotional experience before life begins to feel different.5. Managing your inner world separately from your external circumstances is the real work. Your business, bank account, relationship status, and achievements do not determine your emotional state unless you allow them to.Notable Quotes "The feelings in your body are real, but they are lying to you."  "The imposter syndrome comes when your internal world doesn't match the external world."  "You don't want the thing. You want the emotion you've assigned to the thing."  "You only experience yourself as the emotions you're carrying around."  "You don't experience the world as it is. You experience the world as you are." Call to ActionIf this episode challenged the way you think about success, fulfillment, and personal growth, take a moment to look at what emotions you've been waiting for life to give you.What if peace doesn't require a bigger bank account? What if love doesn't require a different relationship? What if success doesn't require another accomplishment? What if the next level of your life begins by allowing yourself to feel differently today?If you're getting value from The Inner Wealth Podcast, subscribe, rate, and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you listen.

Chief Fixed Income Strategist Vishy Tirupattur takes a look at how credit markets are adapting to fund the new phase of AI capex.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript ----- Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I am Vishy Tirupattur, Morgan Stanley's Chief Fixed Income Strategist. Today – The critical question behind the AI-driven capex cycle that is front and center for markets year to date. How is credit market financing this ecosystem evolving? It's Wednesday June 3rd at 2 pm in New York. When we first discussed the role of credit markets in financing the AI and data center build-out around the middle of last year, the direction of travel was clear. Realizing the transformative potential of AI requires unprecedented levels of capex. What has really surprised us since is the scale and speed of that spending, both of which have exceeded our expectations by a wide margin. The upward revision to capex expectations has been dramatic. A year ago, we projected the combined capex of the five large hyperscalers at roughly $450 billion in both 2026 and 2027. After the first quarter earnings reports, Morgan Stanley's internet equity analysts, led by Brian Nowak, now expect hyperscaler capex of roughly $800 billion in 2026 and $1.2 trillion in 2027. One data point really captures the surge in the underlying demand for compute. According to OpenRouter, the global weekly token usage, which is a key proxy for compute, has risen by roughly 350 percent since early January, increasing from about 6 trillion tokens to 28 trillion tokens. Credit channels for financing this capex have not only been broader and deeper than we anticipated, spanning public and private markets, but have seen remarkable in the structural innovation that is blurring the lines between public and private markets. Over $200bn of public AI-related issuance across the different credit channels has happened just in the first five months of this year. We had previously assumed unsecured issuance would be limited by the scale of the largest non-financial issuers, confined to investment grade credit only, and largely USD denominated. Instead, some hyperscaler issuance has now far exceeded even the largest telecom names; funding has expanded well beyond USD into EUR, GBP, CHF, JPY and CAD markets. The issuer base has also broadened to include data center REITs and neoclouds, particularly in the high-yield market. The scope of financing has also widened beyond the data center shells themselves. GPU financing, which we assumed would be funded entirely through equity capital, has begun to migrate into credit markets. Funding is now coming through broadly syndicated loans and asset based financing, with ABS structures not far behind. Structural innovation illustrates how rapidly the credit ecosystem is adapting to the complexities of demands of AI-driven capex. Financings that combine elements of project finance, tranching, and residual value guarantees, along with high-yield issuance backed by hyperscaler guaranteed leases – these are innovations that we have never seen before. These structures have expanded the investor base, reduced the funding frictions, and further blurred traditional boundaries – between both corporate and project finance, and public and private credit markets. At the same time, physical, operational, and political constraints are beginning to shape the pace and the composition of the AI infrastructure build-out – and, by extension, the demand for financing. Grid access, power generation equipment, skilled labor, and permitting delays are emerging as significant constraints. These are compounded by political and regulatory frictions at the local, national, and international level. As power availability becomes a gating factor, the AI build-out is likely to pull energy infrastructure financing more tightly into the orbit of AI infrastructure financing. The clear takeaway is this. The capex requirements underpinning AI infrastructure are expanding exponentially, and with them the role of credit markets in financing this build-out. Along the way, there will be winners and losers, periods of adjustment, and a range of physical, financial, and political constraints that shape outcomes on the margin. But the broader trajectory is certain. The scale, duration, and strategic importance of AI infrastructure investment mean that financing of this will remain a defining theme for credit markets and credit investors for years to come. Thanks for listening. If you enjoy the podcast, please leave us a review wherever you listen and share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or colleague today.

Get in touch - leave me a messageWhat if the biggest greenwashing risk isn't bad intent, but business-as-usual marketing?In this episode of Climate Confident, I'm joined by Helen Neal, founder of HN Communications, to dig into one of the most under-discussed risks in decarbonisation: how companies talk about sustainability when regulation is tightening, public trust is fragile, and every net zero claim is being scrutinised. This matters because the energy transition will not be carried by technology alone. Climate tech, policy, capital, supply chains, and public confidence all depend on credible communication.You'll hear why traditional corporate messaging can push companies into unintentional greenwashing, why greenhushing is not a safe escape route, and why sustainability claims increasingly need the discipline of financial reporting: clear evidence, third-party verification, and language that can survive scrutiny.We dig into how AI can help check sustainability language, but also why human judgement still has to own the beginning and end of the process. Helen also explains why supply chain data, board accountability, regulation, and executive incentives are becoming central to credible climate leadership. A vague 2050 net zero pledge without a roadmap? That is not strategy. That is a red flag wearing a nice suit.If you care about emissions reduction, business resilience, decarbonisation, and the real-world mechanics of the energy transition, this one is worth your time.

Being busy feels productive. It feels safe. It feels like proof that you're working hard. But what if all that busyness is actually stopping you from creating real value at work? In this episode, Lisa and Em unpack why so many of us default to being busy when work feels uncertain, overwhelming or unclear. From colour-coding documents and endlessly refining presentations to filling our days with low-stakes tasks, they explore the psychology behind why being busy feels so good... And some of the things you're doing you didn't know fall into this category. Lisa explains why the workplace has shifted, what leaders are actually rewarding now, and the practical ways you can become more valuable without simply doing more. What you'll learn: • Why being busy and being valuable are no longer the same thing • The three psychological traps that keep high performers stuck in "busy work" • Why busyness can become a safety net that stops you taking meaningful risks • The behaviours that are increasingly rewarded in modern workplaces • How to communicate your thinking, not just your output Our BIZ hosts are Lisa Lie - a former Head of People & Culture and Organisational Coach - and Mamamia’s Em Vernem.

When markets get uncomfortable, most investors panic—but experienced investors start paying closer attention. In this episode of Keeping It Real Estate, Dan Brisse breaks down why periods of economic uncertainty often create the greatest opportunities in multifamily real estate. While many investors are focused on rising interest rates, inflation, and market volatility, institutional capital is quietly preparing to deploy. Dan explains how today's market reset is exposing weak debt structures, poor underwriting, and overleveraged operators—creating a wave of distressed selling across the multifamily space. He also shares why volatility is not the same as permanent loss, and how disciplined investors use these periods to position themselves for long-term wealth creation. You'll learn why liquidity matters, how institutional investors think during downturns, and what smart operators are doing right now to take advantage of the current cycle. From debt strategy to conservative underwriting and market selection, this episode highlights what separates investors who survive from those who scale. If you want to understand how major wealth is built during uncertain times—and how to think like institutional capital—this episode breaks it down clearly.

Vincent Pugliese built a successful wedding photography business with his wife, Elizabeth, and in under four years used it to pay off all their debt — including their home. But the more interesting part is what happened next. They walked away from the business. Not because it failed, but because it had done what they needed it to do. In this interview, Vincent shares why more bookings and more revenue don't automatically create more freedom, how photographers can use their businesses to build long-term options, and why relationships may be one of the most valuable assets you can develop. This is a conversation about money, freedom, content, connection and building a photography business that supports your life — instead of quietly taking it over. The post 671: Vincent Pugliese – Build a Photography Business That Creates Freedom, Not Just Income appeared first on Photography Business Xposed - Photography Podcast - how to build and market your portrait and wedding photography business.

The Pope's New AI Encyclical: The hosts discuss a groundbreaking 250-page encyclical from Pope Leo XIV that explores the intersection of Catholic faith and artificial intelligence. The encyclical calls for AI to serve humanity rather than displace it, emphasizing that our inherent human limitations and vulnerabilities are actually a good design by God. Pew Research on Church Politics: A surprising new poll reveals how much churches actually address political and social issues like abortion, immigration, and environment from the pulpit. The hosts unpack how these subjects are fundamentally theological and ethical rather than purely political. Texas Creates First Clinic for De-transitioners: The discussion turns to medical developments in Texas, where a first-of-its-kind clinic has been established specifically to help individuals who are de-transitioning. Highlighting cases like advocate Chloe Cole, the hosts touch on the courageous public stance of young people addressing the lifelong impacts of early gender procedures. Audience Question: Navigating the Holy Spirit Differently: The hosts answer a listener's question about how cessationists and continuationists can maintain charity despite theological differences over miraculous gifts. They advise focusing on core doctrines like the Trinity, extending mutual grace across different denominations. Audience Question: Turning to AI for Spiritual Guidance: Responding to a Barna report about Christians using AI for spiritual direction, the hosts weigh the legitimacy of the practice. They emphasize that AI should only serve as an efficiency tool to point users back to Scripture and local community, rather than replacing relational human mentorship.Audience Question: Critique of James Talarico's Theology: The hosts address a listener's question regarding guest-host Dr. Thaddeus Williams drawing a parallel between Texas politician James Talarico and Chinese communist state ideology. The hosts read a response from Williams and clarify that he was making a functional analogy about co-opting Scripture for state ideology, not directly comparing Talarico's personal character to a brutal totalitarian leader.==========Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith and Culture is a podcast from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University, which offers degrees both online and on campus in Southern California.   Find all episodes of Think Biblically at: https://www.biola.edu/think-biblically.   To submit comments, ask questions, or make suggestions on issues you'd like us to cover or guests you'd like us to have on the podcast, email us at thinkbiblically@biola.edu.
