Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with the final Motivate Your Monday episode and your host, Diane Wyzga. As you know, the ending of every story holds the beginning of a new one. I'm retiring 60 Seconds and Motivate Your Monday episodes. Instead of ending these changes are evolving to Begin Anew. I launched my podcast, Stories From Women Who Walk in April 2020 as a platform for conversations with women who were walking their lives until their lives were flipped upside down by something unexpected, how they met the challenges, and changed to becoming stronger, even more confident women. I loved every single moment of listening stories out of my guests! COVID flipped our lives upside down, too. We were no longer commuting to work over long distances or in cars. Who would have the time to listen to a 30 or 40-minute conversation? What to do? Pivot to 60 Seconds. No one was offering this format. Turned out that I was really good at distilling topics, ideas and stories into soundbytes to inform, illuminate, delight, and comfort my listeners. At the same time I created a Listener Location Shout-out to kick off each episode to acknowledge and thank you for listening. How did I know where you were listening? The Simplecast platform provides a global map with yellow dots that light up the villages, towns and cities where your feet touch the ground all around the world. Each shout-out included a URL linked to the location so that other listeners could “armchair travel” to that place. Imagine how much I learned about my global audience. Some 1,330 episodes and close to 250,000 plays later it's time to do something different. But what? Running like a river beneath the surface of the lived experience moments of our lives is a deeper, truer one waiting to be acknowledged. How do I acknowledge that deeper truth? What will I hear when I let my Life speak? Where will it lead me next so that I can make the transitions I seek while inviting you to come along with me on the journey? I promise you this: the voice you have come to know and trust for over 6 plus years on the airwaves, along with the stories, insights, questions and prompts that speak to each of us as if to say, “What! You, too? I thought I was the only one.” [C.S.Lewis] I'd like to focus my creative efforts on producing “Diane on Mic” short-form episodes—maybe 7 minutes or so of spoken word—for Wednesdays on Whidbey and Story Prompt Friday.

The Devil Within The Monsters We Still Create Episode Three: The Things That Really Live Beneath the Water The Frogman of High Falls has led us on an unexpected journey. We began with a modern cryptid hiding in the mist beneath Rochester's famous waterfall. We explored the city's remarkable rise as an industrial powerhouse, examined how abandoned places inspire folklore, and discovered how the human mind—and now the internet—can transform uncertainty into legend. Now we arrive at the conclusion. In the final chapter of The Monsters We Still Create, Branden Morgan leaves mythology behind and follows the evidence back to the Genesee River itself. From the environmental awakening that reshaped America after rivers like the Cuyahoga caught fire, to the remarkable recovery of western New York's waterways, we explore the quiet reality that ecosystems remember everything we do to them. The true story isn't one of radioactive monsters or government experiments. It's the far more profound story of how nature absorbs our choices, adapts to them, and, when given the chance, begins to heal. But perhaps the Frogman was never really about amphibians at all. Perhaps he exists because every civilization creates monsters that reflect its deepest fears. Medieval Europe imagined demons lurking beyond the village. Frontier America feared endless�wilderness. Industrial America, having transformed rivers, forests, and landscapes beyond recognition, began imagining something waiting beneath the water—a creature born not from ancient curses, but from the uneasy relationship between progress and consequence. The Frogman may never have walked the banks of the Genesee River. But the questions he asks us are very real. Join us as we conclude this three-part series and discover why the greatest monsters have never been the ones hiding in the darkness—they're the ones that inspire us to finally look beneath the surface.

How do you decide between a dedicated aortic scaffold and kissing stents in complex aortoiliac bifurcations? On this episode of the BackTable Podcast, Dr. Sabeen Dhand and Dr. Eric Secemsky discuss the management of a female smoker presenting with rapidly progressive bilateral hip pain, ultimately revealed to be severe aortoiliac arterial disease.

CTA intern, mindset coach and trainer David Streitmatter brings us another inspirational message in his series "One Way Streit"!

The Devil Within The Monsters We Still Create Episode Two: Watching a Legend Being Born In Episode Two of The Monsters We Still Create, we leave the history books behind and venture into something even more mysterious—the human mind. Why do intelligent, honest people become convinced they've witnessed something extraordinary? Why do some places seem to invite legends while others never do? This week, we explore the fascinating psychology behind eyewitness accounts, revealing how memory, expectation, and the unique atmosphere surrounding Rochester's High Falls can transform an ordinary moment into an unforgettable encounter. Standing beside the mist-filled Genesee River, where abandoned mills and restored factories share the same landscape, we discover why modern industrial ruins have become the perfect birthplace for twenty-first century monsters. Then we examine what may be the greatest storytelling invention in human history: the internet. Around ancient campfires, legends took generations to evolve. Today, a blurry photograph, a strange sound, or a single social media post can reach millions of people in a matter of hours. Is the Frogman of High Falls simply another cryptid—or are we witnessing the birth of folklore in real time? Sometimes monsters aren't discovered. Sometimes they're created. And sometimes, the most fascinating mystery isn't whether a creature exists, but why so many people want it to. Join us as we continue our search for The Frogman of High Falls—and discover why every generation creates the monsters it needs.

Unruptured intracranial aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations are frequently discovered incidentally on neuroimaging, presenting complex decisions around monitoring, referral, and treatment. This episode highlights key risk factors for rupture, the role of imaging in evaluation, and practical approaches to triage and management, including when specialist intervention is warranted. In this episode, Gordon Smith, MD, FAAN, speaks with Edgar Samaniego, MD, FAAN, authors of the article "Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms and Arteriovenous Malformations" in the Continuum® June 2026 Cerebrovascular Disease issue. Dr. Smith is a Continuum® Audio interviewer and a professor and chair of neurology at Kenneth and Dianne Wright Distinguished Chair in Clinical and Translational Research at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia. Dr. Samaniego is a professor of neurology, neurosurgery, and radiology and the director of the vascular neurology fellowship at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa.

If so, are you up to speed on how to manage this common situation, how to monitor, when to refer, and how to counsel your patients? If your answers to these two questions are yes and or no, then please keep listening.  Dr Jones: This is Dr. Lyell Jones, Editor-in-Chief of Continuum. Thank you for listening to Continuum Audio. Be sure to visit the links in the episode notes for information about earning CME, subscribing to the journal, and exclusive access to interviews not featured on the podcast.  Dr Smith: This is Dr. Gordon Smith. Today, I'm interviewing Dr. Edgar Samaniego about his article on unruptured intracranial aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations. This article appears in the June two thousand twenty-six Continuum issue on cerebrovascular disease. Edgar, welcome to the podcast, and maybe you can briefly introduce yourself to our listeners.  Dr Samaniego: Yeah. Thank you, Gordon. So, I'm an interventional neurologist. I'm practicing at the University of Iowa. I've been in Iowa for the last ten years. I'm originally from Ecuador. Did my residency in Wisconsin, and then I went to Stanford for neuro critical care and stroke. And then I did my neurointerventional fellowship at the Baptist Cardiac and Vascular Institute in Miami.  Dr Smith: You're a triple threat in the world of vascular and critical care, which I want to get to later. But your article's really great. I'll admit one of the first things I do when I read an article for Continuum Audio is I see how long it is. I saw yours was as long as the rest, and I was a little surprised because this sounded like a simple topic. But having read it, it's anything but simple. This is really important and complex stuff. I wonder if maybe you can orient our listeners to the importance of this. We frequently find unruptured aneurysms or vascular malformations on brain imaging that we order for something else. I mean, how common is that, and why do you think our listeners need to be particularly attentive to our conversation today?  Dr Samaniego: It's pretty frequent that we see patients with unruptured brain aneurysms. A lot of times, you know, we do imaging like CT angiograms, or magnetic, resonance angiography. Patients come to the ER with headaches, and we find an unruptured aneurysm. And you know, the question always comes, "What should we do with this aneurysm that we found?" We know that a lot of these aneurysms will not rupture, but the caveat is that when they rupture, like fifty percent of these patients may die or have bad outcomes. So, it's always a puzzling question, you know. What should we do with the aneurysm?  Dr Smith: Well, thanks, Edgar. I mean, this is certainly something that I come across. I'm glad to hear that other people struggle with this as well. What actually is the prevalence of aneurysms in the general population? How common is this?  Dr Samaniego: It's more common than what we think, you know. The, the estimates talk about like one in every fifty people have a brain aneurysm, and about every eighteen minutes an aneurysm will rupture. In the United States, there's approximately thirty thousand ruptures per year. So, there's a significant number of, of patients affected by brain aneurysms. And, and the key thing is that affects usually younger patients who are in the most productive years of their lives. So that's why it shouldn't be ignored, and once we find an aneurysm, we have to have all the information for triaging and deciding on treatment of these aneurysms.  Dr Smith: Well, it's a great way to begin our conversation. I mean, this is not a rare problem. It's a common problem, and there's actually a really great section of the article I'll refer people to about medical malpractice and the importance of recognizing and dealing with this thoughtfully. It's an empowering section, not a scary one, but this is important for our listeners to know about. Pretty high-stakes stuff. Maybe you can orient listeners like me or maybe simple neuromuscular people. What different types of aneurysms are there?  Dr Samaniego: That's the interesting question because there's multiple types of aneurysms, and there is a whole spectrum of aneurysm. When we say aneurysm, you can be talking about a fusiform versus a saccular aneurysm. We tend to classify them based on shape, also location. But the two main classifications for brain aneurysms will be saccular, which, you know, has a sac kind of morphology shape, and then you have the fusiform aneurysms. Those are the main morphological classifications. Then on top of that, you have two other subtypes that you see quite often. The one that we see is mycotic aneurysms that is like a misnomer because it's not a fungal aneurysm. It's just an infectious aneurysm that most of the time we see on the setting of endocarditis. These behave a little bit different than the typical saccular or fusiform aneurysms. And then also you have other more rare types of aneurysms like blister aneurysms that are sometimes located in the anterior wall of the carotid artery. So, you know, within this spectrum, we have those main aneurysms. The typical aneurysms, which can be fusiform or saccular, and also the more atypical, which can be mycotic and also blister-like aneurysms.  Dr Smith: I wonder if you might comment a little bit on the relevance of the type of aneurysm, fusiform, saccular, blister, and then location on rupture risk or prognosis.You have a really great figure about anatomic classification in the article actually that I encourage everyone to check out when they hopefully read it. But what do these characteristics imply for risk?  Dr Samaniego: Yeah. This is very complex question because, you know, entails different characteristics of aneurysms such as shape, the location, morphology. So, we know that some locations, for example, the anterior communicating artery has a high risk of rupturing as opposed to patients such as the part of ophthalmic aneurysm, which are usually located at the origin of the ophthalmic artery in the internal carotid artery. So, by risk of rupturing, the highest risk is usually the anterior communicating. Then you have posterior communicating artery aneurysms, which are usually located in the internal carotid artery, but because of their proximity to the origin of the posterior communicating artery, they're called posterior communicating artery aneurysms. Then you have the posterior circulation aneurysms on top of risk of rupturing is the top of the basilar artery location. Those three are the highest risk for rupturing: ACOM, PCOM, and top of the basilar. In terms of morphology, I always tell my patients, you know, if it's like a nice-looking aneurysm that has this rounded shape is a benign morphology. If you have the aneurysm that's having these Mickey Mouse ears that has these blebs or daughter sacs, those are aneurysms that usually scare us because those are the ones that usually rupture. So that's another criteria, morphology. And then the other criteria would be size. There is this magnificent study called ISUIA, which was published several years ago, and basically what it demonstrated was that aneurysms that are seven millimeters or larger are more likely to rupture versus smaller aneurysms. So those are the three criteria that I'm looking into when talking to patients about morphology, location, size, and the, the shape or morphology of the aneurysm.  Dr Smith: So, let's say a general neurologist or comprehensive neurologist practicing in a community setting in a rural area orders a, let's just say a CT or CTA for a patient with a TIA and finds what looks like an aneurysm. What's the next step in terms of imaging? What's the best next step? I mean, there are a bunch of different imaging modalities. Do you get an MRA? Is it time-of-flight, contrasted? You know, when do you get a DSA and so forth?  Dr Samaniego: Yeah. The first thing to do is to better characterize the aneurysm. Order of more accurate imaging that we can obtain without being invasive with a diagnostic cerebral angiogram. The rest will be a magnetic resonance angiography with contrast that, you know, gives you really good detailed information about the aneurysm. Similar in terms of quality and precision will be a CT angiography. The caveat there is with CT angiography is that, you know, you use radiation, and the patient has to get iodine. And then under those two, you will have a time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography, which doesn't use any contrast, but then you lose a little bit of quality in terms of the imaging and some morphological features you might miss. So usually what we do in my practice, I don't wanna do a diagnostic cerebral angiogram, and somebody has to refer an unruptured aneurysm. I try to do CT angiogram as a baseline, see how the aneurysm looks, and then for follow-up, I usually do magnetic resonance an- angiograms with with contrast. If there is a concern that the aneurysm has some dangerous features like it's irregular in shape, it's, it's larger, it's in one of these high-risk locations, might be better just to refer the, the patient to a specialist for a diagnostic cerebral angiography.  Dr Smith: So, you know, there are these scales that you talk about in the article. There's phases in the UIATS that are used to predict rupture risk and guide decision-making. Are these scales that general neurologists or non-vascular neurologists can use to guide care? I'm thinking of like Chad-Baskin, ASBAD, which, you know, all our residents know about. Should we all be familiar with these scores?  Dr Samaniego: I think they're very helpful in the sense that it will give us some guidance. Some of the characteristics of the scale might be up- outdated. For example, like ancestry. Although it's been described more in Japanese and Finnish populations, and North American, not as much as these two other populations. We do see a lot of aneurysms in people from North America and other backgrounds. For example, one of the biggest critiques for the phases is that doesn't take into account smoking history. Smoking that we know is a risk factor. And the other critiques for phases is that, for example, if you are older than seventy years old, you will score one point, which will increase your risk of aneurysm rupturing. Having said that, we do see like tons of aneurysms on younger patients, actually the most productive years of their lives that they rupture. So, it gives you some parameters like the presence of hypertension, the size, as I said, seven or larger, previous history of subarachnoid hemorrhage, and the location of the aneurysm. But it doesn't take into account other factors like smoking or morphological features of the aneurysm. Dr Smith: Now, you mentioned size. I'd like to maybe go back and talk about a case from your article, which I found really impactful. For our listeners, this is a sixty-four-year-old woman who had a five-millimeter ACOM aneurysm. She was imaged serially, didn't change over the time period, and then two years later ruptured with devastating consequence, right? And so that's a small aneurysm. Most aneurysms, I guess, are small aneurysms. I just wonder, when you see a patient like that, how do you handle the discussion regarding risk? And how do you decide when to refer them for an intervention?  Dr Samaniego: Yeah. It's always puzzling when we see these smaller aneurysms. And this example is a typical example of a patient that doesn't follow the rule of seven or larger aneurysm size for rupturing. We see that quite often on aneurysms located in the anterior communicating artery. Just this last week, I treated two patients with similar characteristics, with smaller aneurysms, like average size between four and five, that rupture, and both were located in the anterior communicating artery. So, we know that there is definitely a linear relationship between size and risk and rupture, but we do see a lot of patients that have smaller aneurysms, like three, four, five millimeters that rupture, and we don't really understand very well the, biology of these aneurysms. So, when we see these aneurysms, we try to maximize the characterization of the aneurysm with better imaging, try to see the morphology. And usually when an aneurysm is discovered, what we do for follow-up is a six-month follow-up with some type of imaging, CTA, MRA with contrast, and see if there's has been any change in, on the aneurysm.  Dr Smith: So, is it fair to say that a knowledgeable non-vascular neurologist can safely manage these patients, follow them over time using what they learned from reviewing your article, identify patients who have higher risk aneurysms based on the characteristics you summarize, and refer them to a tertiary center? When I get these, it's easy for me to have our vascular neurosurgeon see them or a vascular neurologist, right? But in a community where you may not have ready access to that subspecialist, is it still important to get all of these patients to a tertiary center? Are there select instances where a community-based general neurologist can follow them and then refer if there's change in size, for instance?  Dr Samaniego: Yeah. I think that everything else that we do in neurology, it's important to do some type of triage in referring some of these patients for further studying and  expert opinion. I think age and size of the aneurysm, age of the patient and size of the aneurysm are huge factors. For example, if we have an older patient in their nineties and has incidentally found two-millimeter aneurysm in a low-risk location like the parathalmic, that patient probably needs to be seen locally. I don't think merits a full workup. As opposed to a younger patient with a three-millimeter aneurysm located in the ACOM. I think that type of patient probably needs to be referred to a tertiary s-stroke center for workup. I mean, most of the time what's gonna happen is that if it's a small aneurysm with benign characteristics, you know, it's gonna be seen by the specialist and they're gonna determine some type of follow-up, which can be done locally.  Dr Smith: So maybe we can pivot a little bit and talk about AVMs, if that's okay. What's your approach to a coincidentally discovered AVM, right? I mean, presumably, we need to think about symptomatic AVMs a little differently, I would think. So maybe we can start with the same scenario we've been talking about. You get an imaging study for something else, and, well, we find an AVM. What's the approach to that situation?  Dr Samaniego: Yeah. AVMs are fascinating vascular lesions because they're very complex, they're very heterogeneous. If we're talking about the morphological features with aneurysms, this, in the case of AVMs, is way more complex in terms of location size. The complexity added to AVMs is that you have a feeding artery, you have a nidus, and then you have draining veins. So, all of these can be very heterogeneous. In case of AVMs, I think those definitely need to be referred to a tertiary center because the management of AVMs is multidisciplinary, even in the tertiary centers. You know, we don't have a magic wand that will say, you know, all these AVMs need to be treated this way. Sometimes they don't even need to be treated because we know from some studies that just watching them will be good enough.  Dr Smith: You raised management of AVMs. Maybe we can go back and talk a little bit about what's the latest in management of aneurysms. You manage aneurysms from soup to nuts and as an endovascular interventional neurologist. What's the latest in management of aneurysms?  Dr Samaniego: The latest is that, which falls within management, is that we have tools that they have not really been validated a hundred percent because we're still understanding the biology of some of these aneurysms. But high-resolution MRI will help us to define if there is some enhancement of the aneurysm. There is the thought that if there is enhancement after the administration of contrast, might be more of an inflammatory process. So that can be used for management, triage, and follow-up of some of these aneurysms. In terms of endovascular treatment, it has been really a revolution of how we treat these lesions. You know, we have a lot of new devices, better catheters to access the aneurysms.There is devices that you can place inside the aneurysm sac and it'll completely shut down flow into the aneurysm. There is other special stents called flow diverters that can take the flow away from the aneurysm and bypassing the aneurysm. So, all of these things have really revolutionized how we treat them. Having said that, you know, there's always a risk with any of these procedures, and that's why we gotta be mindful when we decide to treat these patients with unruptured incidentally found aneurysm.  Dr Smith: I've got just one more question, Edgar, which I kind of led with. You've got training as a vascular neurologist, a neurointensivist, and an interventional neurologist. And you know, Ralph Sacco, as you probably know, used to like to talk about the neurologist, and part of the neurologist was interventional. I wonder what wisdom you have to trainees that are listening to us right now who might be interested in pursuing a career as a neuroendovascular neurologist. What wisdom do you have for them about how to go about doing that?  Dr Samaniego: It has been really rewarding to be part of this process and evolution of treating a stroke and aneurysms and AVMs because I remember when I was a resident at the University of Wisconsin, we only had, like, thrombolysis and only one device for, retrieving some of these clots. But now we have, like, 10 different devices. We have two different indications or two, two different thrombolytics. So, my best advice for trainees that want to pursue neuroendovascular is to get engaged early on, understand very well the biology and the thought process because it's not only a technical field. You have to have really good judgment on when to do and when not to do the procedure, and try to find mentorship. You know, there is a lot of neurointerventional neurologists out there right now. Having a good mentor will really facilitate your career choices and getting into training.  Dr Smith: Well, Edgar, thanks so much. What an exciting conversation. It's just another great example of how exciting neurology is these days. Many exciting advances and innovations, and we just scratched the surface. I encourage all of our listeners to read the article. It's actually really, really informative. So, thank you very much.  Dr Samaniego: Thank you so much, Gordon.  Dr Smith: Again, today I've been interviewing Dr. Edgar Samaniego about his article on unruptured intracranial aneurysms and AVMs. This article appears in the June 2026 issue of Continuum on Cerebrovascular Disease.

The Devil Within The Monsters We Still Create Episode One: A Monster for the Machine Age Every monster has an origin story. Some are born in the ancient forests of Europe. Others emerge from forgotten mountain ranges or disappear into the depths of dark lakes. But the Frogman of High Falls is different. He doesn't seem to come from medieval folklore or Indigenous legend. He appears suddenly, in the shadow of abandoned factories, crumbling mills, and one of America's great industrial rivers. In the first chapter of The Monsters We Still Create, Branden Morgan travels to Rochester, New York, where the Genesee River has carved its way through limestone for thousands of years. Long before Kodak, Xerox, and the Flour City transformed the landscape, High Falls stood as one of nature's enduring monuments. But as industry flourished, the river became both the engine of prosperity and the silent witness to everything civilization left behind. How does a city built on innovation become the birthplace of a brand-new monster? This episode explores the remarkable history of Rochester, the rise of American industry, the environmental scars left behind, and the fascinating realization that the Frogman of High Falls has almost no historical footprint before the modern era. Perhaps that's because this isn't an ancient legend at all. Perhaps it's a monster that could only have been born in the twentieth century. Join us as we begin a three-part exploration into one of America's newest cryptids—and ask whether monsters are discovered... or created.

Why can two people with similar LDL levels experience radically different cardiovascular outcomes?  In this episode, I speak with Peter Anderson about the possibility that endothelial nitric oxide may be one of the major variables separating these outcomes.We explore whether nitric oxide can be understood as a protective “bank” that is progressively depleted by ageing, hypertension, smoking, insulin resistance, obesity, sleep deprivation, psychological stress and circadian disruption.We also discuss dietary nitrate, rocket and beetroot, oral bacteria, sunlight, ultraviolet A, infrared light, movement, erectile function, flow-mediated dilation, ketosis, statins, calcium scores and the emerging controversy surrounding coronary CT analysis in lean-mass hyper-responders.CONSULT DR MAX

Niels Kaastrup-Larsen and Nick Baltas explore how artificial intelligence, thematic investing and narrative momentum are beginning to reshape systematic investing. Alongside a review of recent CTA performance, they discuss new research on expanding trend following universes, defensive portfolio construction and portable alpha before taking a deep dive into the growing role of AI and thematic risk models. The conversation examines whether future investment signals may come from more than price alone and how systematic investors can combine traditional trend following with new sources of information without losing the discipline that has defined the strategy for decades.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Nick on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 - AI, memories and the changing pace of innovation06:32 - How investment firms are integrating artificial intelligence13:01 - CTA performance and the trend following environment20:34 - Expanding the market universe for trend followers28:17 - Building the perfect hedge with trend following34:25 - Portable alpha and leveraging trend strategies37:44 - Introducing thematic investing and missing factors44:59 - How narratives create momentum in financial markets50:43 - Measuring thematic strength versus price momentum58:41 - Can thematic investing be backtested?01:04:14 - Are narratives really different from traditional sectors?01:07:06 - Final thoughts on AI, research and the future of systematic investingCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

The Devil Within Campfire Files: The House That Hadn't Been Emptied (Episode Three — The Last Night) Every vacation ends. Most end with photographs, souvenirs, and promises to return. This one ended before sunrise. In the breathtaking conclusion to Campfire Files, Nina and Paul spend one final night inside Birch House as a dense Atlantic fog and coastal storm isolate the cottage from the rest of the world. Outside, Penobscot Bay disappears beneath wind and rain. Inside, the house quietly resumes the routine it has practiced for generations. The locked room opens once more. The missing suitcase returns. And this time... it isn't empty. Inside are the belongings Nina and Paul intended to pack the following morning—carefully folded, organized, and waiting exactly as though someone, or something, had anticipated their departure before they had. As dawn approaches, they flee Birch House, abandoning part of their vacation and leaving behind questions that no caretaker, homeowner, or investigator can answer. Months later, after returning to Arizona, they discover that perhaps they never left the Bennett Place behind at all. The House That Hadn't Been Emptied concludes with a quiet realization that lingers long after the final page: perhaps old houses don't haunt people... Perhaps they simply refuse to forget them. In This Episode • A coastal storm traps Nina and Paul at Birch House. • The mysterious return of the missing suitcase. • A suitcase packed with their own belongings before they packed them. • The hurried escape from the Bennett Place before dawn. • The owner's unsettling final phone call. • A discovery months later that suggests some departures are never truly complete. • The conclusion of this summer's Campfire Files.

Send us Fan MailThere is a revenue cliff hiding inside the billing transition most independent practices are planning right now. Not from the change itself. From the order of it. In this episode we walk through why the money in your bank account during month one of a new billing arrangement is almost entirely old AR, why simultaneous service and software change is the fastest way to lose that money, and the three questions you have to answer before any sequencing decision makes sense. Three questions before you sequence anything: Are you replacing an in-house team or an outsourced vendor? Who owns the software? Is the software working, or is it part of the problem? Skipping these is where the error gets made. System 1: The revenue ramp. Month one is 80 to 90 percent old AR. Month four is 95 to 100 percent new team. Every sequencing decision has to protect that ramp. System 2: In-house vs outsourced risk profiles. In-house transitions risk institutional knowledge walking out. Outsourced-to-outsourced transitions risk data access and credentialing. Different risks, different sequences. System 3: Three software paths. Keep functional software and transition service only. Replace failing software after service stabilizes. Or defer the outdated-but-functional software conversation until months four through six. Three actions this week Answer the three questions in writing before any vendor conversation. Pull your AR aging report. If more than one month of gross charges sits past 45 days, plan an AR cleanup sprint before the new team starts. Read your current vendor or software contract for data provisions, notice terms, and auto-renewal windows. Episode breakdown 00:00  Hook and big idea 02:30  The three questions 13:00  System 1: the revenue ramp 16:00  System 2: in-house vs outsourced 20:00  System 3: three software paths 24:00  Summary and action plan 26:00  CTA and cliffhanger Resources EMR / PM Software Assessment Form (primary): https://eligibility.natrevmd.com/emp/pm-evaluation-frameworkBook a Revenue Audit: natrevmd.com/schedule-a-call Payment Posting Audit Checklist: eligibility.natrevmd.com/payment-posting-checklist Practice Revenue Leak Scorecard: eligibility.natrevmd.com/nrm-revenue-scorecard-v3 30-Day Revenue Recovery Plan: eligibility.natrevmd.com/nrc/-30day-revenue-recovery-plan

The Devil Within Campfire Files: The House That Hadn't Been Emptied (Episode Two — What the House Kept) Some mysteries begin with a strange noise. Others begin with a single name. This week, Campfire Files returns to the rocky coast of Maine as Nina and Paul attempt to convince themselves that the footsteps they heard the night before were nothing more than an old house settling into the cool Atlantic air. Morning, however, has other plans. The locked room at the end of the hallway is standing open. Inside, they discover what appears to be an ordinary family storage room filled with decades of forgotten memories. But hidden among the coats and keepsakes is an old leather suitcase bearing a luggage tag that should not exist. It has Nina's full legal name. Her middle name. Her home address in Phoenix. And no one should know any of it. When the owner sends the property's longtime caretaker to Birch House, the mystery only deepens. Walter Pike has spent his entire life watching over the Bennett Place, and he speaks about the house less like a building and more like an elderly relative. Then he shares a story passed down from his father about the last woman who lived there—a widow who kept suitcases packed for people who never came home. Her explanation has haunted the town ever since. "Departures are easier when the house knows who's leaving." As Walter searches the storage room, the suitcase disappears before their eyes, leaving behind a question no one—not even the caretaker—can answer. What, exactly, has Birch House been waiting for?�In This Episode • The mysterious opening of the locked storage room. • A suitcase bearing Nina's full name and home address. • The arrival of caretaker Walter Pike. • The history of the Bennett family and Margaret Bennett's strange ritual. • The unexplained disappearance of the suitcase. • The chilling realization that Birch House may not simply remember its visitors... • It may be preparing for them.

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. Maybe like me you've experienced that profound shift where you stop adjusting your presence to fit the room and start defining who you are on your own terms.   Five years ago I pivoted from guest interviews to daily 60 Seconds podcast episodes. COVID kept us home. I needed a new way to talk with listeners who were no longer commuting to work in cars. 60 Seconds fit the bill for me. I could offer you, my listeners, sound-bytes designed to delight, inspire, motivate, comfort, and prompt you to recognizing and working on your own stories. I developed hundreds of clear, concise and cogent episodes just for you—and me, too.   Now as I find myself at the crossroads of Identity and Invisibility I want to use our time together to speak directly to that internal ache for self-discovery, self-expression, and self-confidence—mine right alongside yours. An emotional weight occupies so many of us in this middle season of life. I call it "Middle-Earth-Aged"© for the magic, the wisdom, the insight we possess. Ours is a restless ache that asks: But who am I when no one is asking me to be anything for them? When you start to investigate that ache, you move past the surface. You enter the space of self-discovery. You realize that you aren't just a collection of roles you perform for other people. You are claiming your own narrative and voice; maybe for the first time. CTA: Join me in an experiment here as we embark on the emotional journey of "Middle-Earth-Aged-Women"© seeking ourselves while mirroring each other's quest for a newer and truer Identity.  You're always invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, subscribe & spread this episode  with a generous 5-star review & comment—it helps us all—& join us next time!

Hello EIClique! This week we're asking, is the secret to good health, being a bitch, actually?In a piece titled ‘“Be a bitch or develop an autoimmune disease”, Sheya Kurian writes, ‘The internet's latest health theory isn't backed by science, but its popularity reveals how many women are exhausted by their own pleasantness'. The theory is everywhere on TikTok and Instagram, posts and testimonials racking up hundreds of thousands of views argue that years of people-pleasing, conflict-avoidance, and suppressed anger eventually show up in the body as eczema, hives, flare-ups, you name it. As Kurian writes in the piece, no doctor is prescribing "stand up to your annoying coworker" as treatment, however, there's obviously a reason that so many women resonate with it as an idea: research does link chronic stress to inflammation and immune dysregulation, and women are disproportionately affected by autoimmune disease. What do we make of this latest internet craze? Listen and find out!We hope you enjoy, as always please rate, review, follow & share the show :) love ya, O,R,B. xxoxoxoxo“Be a bitch or develop an autoimmune disease” has a CTA for women Hosted on Acast.

The Devil's Ledger | Week of July 20, 2026 This week on The Devil's Ledger, we celebrate an unforgettable month of football, explore one of the eeriest true crime deceptions of the digital age, conclude a haunting summer novella, and revisit two of the most compelling criminal investigations we've covered this year. We begin by congratulating Spain on capturing its second FIFA World Cup title after a thrilling championship match, while tipping our hats to North America for hosting one of the greatest sporting events the world has ever seen. Then, in The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week, Branden examines the chilling murder of Gretchen Anthony and one of the most disturbing realities of the digital age: how a killer continued communicating with friends and family using the victim's own phone after her death. In a world where our phones have become extensions of ourselves, what happens when someone else begins speaking in your voice? On The Devil Within, Campfire Files comes to its unforgettable conclusion with The House That Hadn't Been Emptied. An Arizona couple's peaceful vacation along the rocky coast of Maine ends with a locked room, a mysterious caretaker, and a suitcase that somehow knows exactly who it's waiting for. It's a quiet, literary ghost story about memory, history, and the unsettling possibility that some houses never truly let their guests leave. Over on Criminal Mischief, Carolyn Ossorio concludes her investigation into the Pike County Massacre, following investigators as they unravel one of the most shocking murder conspiracies in modern American history after nearly an entire family was executed in a single night. On The Slippery, Scott and Nancy revisit a case they've pursued for nearly a decade: the 2006 murder of Doris Worrell. Following a dramatic arrest in 2025, they examine new evidence surrounding an alleged murder-for-hire plot that may finally bring long-awaited answers. Finally, in This Week in Horror, we recommend The Bay, a tense open-water survival thriller that proves the ocean can still be one of the scariest places on Earth. Stay cool, stay hydrated, and stay alert. You never know what's waiting around the next corner... or beneath the surface. We'll see you this week across the Evio Creative Universe. In This Episode • ⚽ Congratulations to Spain on winning the 2026 FIFA World Cup. •

The Devil Within Campfire Files: The House That Hadn't Been Emptied (Episode One) There are vacation homes... And then there are homes that never stopped being lived in. This week, The Devil Within begins a brand-new Campfire Files novella with one of the most unsettling stories we've ever told. When Nina and Paul Alvarez leave the Arizona desert for a quiet week along the rocky coast of Maine, they're looking for exactly what every vacation promises: peace, fresh air, and a temporary escape from ordinary life. Instead, they discover Birch House—a charming nineteenth-century cottage whose history may be far more present than anyone realizes. As they settle into the rhythms of coastal Maine, something about the house feels... familiar. A locked room at the end of the upstairs hallway. Floorboards polished by generations of footsteps. A home that seems strangely reluctant to become just another vacation rental. Then, late on their first night... Someone walks across the second floor. The problem is... No one is there. In this opening chapter of The House That Hadn't Been Emptied, Branden Morgan explores why old houses seem to preserve more than photographs and furniture—and whether some homes ever truly stop belonging to the families who built them. Because sometimes... the hardest thing a house ever learns... is how to say goodbye. In This Episode • Why old homes feel fundamentally different from hotels.�• The history and quiet beauty of coastal Maine. • Birch House and the unspoken intimacy of vacation rentals. • Nina and Paul's arrival in Camden. • The mysterious locked room at the end of the upstairs hallway. • The first unexplained footsteps.

Mercury retrograde has been hitting hard this whole month, and if you have felt foggy, slow, weirdly emotional, or like July ground you to a halt, you are not imagining it. In this episode, Nicole makes sense of why this particular retrograde is landing so heavy, in the sky and in your Human Design. Mercury is retrograde in Cancer, the sign of all the feels, until it goes direct on July 23, and it is not moving alone. Nicole unpacks the two Human Design gates this transit is featuring right now, and the shadow side behind both the mental spin you cannot shut off and the restless pull to start something new before you even know what it is. Add in a couple of other retrogrades stirring things up, and the fog starts to make a lot of sense. What Nicole will not do is hand you a quick fix, because this is the weather and the invitation is different. She gets into what this energy is actually here to develop in you, why forcing your next move backfires right now, and the one practice she keeps coming back to when everything feels stuck. If July has had you questioning everything, this episode will leave you feeling less crazy and a lot more resourced. Free: Your Brand Edge by Human Design Profile Line.

The Devil Within Presents: The Campfire Files The City Beneath the City — Episode Three Every mystery reaches a point where two paths emerge. One leads back to reason. The other disappears into the impossible. In the epic conclusion to The City Beneath the City, Matt and Claire escape the Paris Catacombs convinced they can explain everything they experienced beneath the streets of France. The strange voices. The forgotten gallery. The impossible red scarf. Surely exhaustion, jet lag, and the disorienting atmosphere of the Catacombs are enough to account for it all. Until they return home. While organizing the photographs from their vacation, they discover images neither of them remembers taking. Images that place them inside a tunnel that, according to retired quarry engineers and historical records, has been sealed for more than fifty years. Then comes the final revelation. An inscription that shouldn't exist. A photograph with no timestamp. And a message that suggests the Catacombs were never trying to trap them... Only to remember them. Part travel memoir, part historical mystery, and part supernatural horror, The City Beneath the City concludes with one haunting question: What if the places we visit never truly let us leave? Join Branden Morgan for the unforgettable conclusion to this inaugural installment of The Campfire Files. �If you've enjoyed this series, please follow The Devil Within, leave a rating and review, and share it with someone who loves immersive horror, historical mysteries, and stories that blur the line between fact and folklore. Sometimes we think we're exploring old places. Sometimes... they're exploring us.

The Devil Within Presents: The Campfire Files The City Beneath the City — Part Two: Beneath Paris The descent begins. In Part Two of The City Beneath the City, Matt and Claire leave the bright boulevards of Paris behind and step into one of the world's most extraordinary—and unsettling—places: the Paris Catacombs. As the daylight disappears and six million dead surround them, something unexpected happens. Conversations fade to whispers. Time begins to feel strangely elastic. Even the simple act of walking becomes different beneath the city. What starts as a tour of one of history's greatest engineering achievements slowly transforms into something else entirely. Because somewhere in the darkness... someone knows Matt's name. Join Branden Morgan for the next chapter of The Campfire Files, where history, folklore, and the unexplained converge beneath one of the most beautiful cities on Earth.

The Devil's Ledger Week of July 13, 2026 Summer may be in full swing, but the strange stories never take a vacation. This week on The Devil's Ledger, Branden Morgan takes you from one of America's most haunted Civil War landmarks to the shadowy tunnels beneath Paris, where history—and perhaps something else—still lingers beneath the streets. In The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week, we visit Pennsylvania's legendary Sachs Covered Bridge, a Civil War crossing steeped in stories of ghostly soldiers, phantom gunpowder, unexplained cold spots, and shadowy figures said to patrol the bridge more than 160 years after the Battle of Gettysburg. Then we head underground on The Devil Within, as Campfire Files continues with The City Beneath the City. What begins as an ordinary vacation to Paris becomes something far more unsettling when an American couple ventures into the infamous Catacombs beneath the French capital. Surrounded by the remains of more than six million Parisians, they discover that history may not be the only thing preserved beneath the City of Light. Over on Criminal Mischief, Carolyn returns with another investigation into the darker side of human nature. She still won't tell Branden what she's working on, so listeners will discover the mystery together when the new episode drops this Tuesday. On The Slippery, Nancy examines the heartbreaking wrongful-conviction case of Marilyn Mulero, whose coerced confession sent her to death row for a crime she didn't commit. It's a remarkable examination of Detective Reynaldo Guevara, false confessions, and the long road toward justice. Finally, in This Week in Horror, we spotlight Evil Dead Burn, the newest chapter in Sam Raimi's legendary horror franchise. A secluded family gathering becomes an unforgettable nightmare as an ancient evil transforms a reunion into absolute chaos. Stay cool, stay safe, and thanks for spending part of your week with us. We'll see you across the Evio Creative Universe. In This Episode •

The most expensive mistake in business often doesn't show up on a credit card statement. It shows up as lost time, drained energy, and momentum you can't seem to rebuild no matter how many tools you try. We're talking about the hidden cost of trying to grow a business alone and why “figuring it out” can quietly keep you stuck for years. We walk through the patterns we see in smart entrepreneurs all the time: starting over after every setback, carrying every decision yourself until decision fatigue turns into burnout, and getting paralyzed by the fear of picking the wrong niche, the wrong product, or the wrong opt-in. When you're too close to your business, objectivity disappears, and even good ideas can fail because the foundation isn't aligned. Then we get practical with a client story: a relationship coach running a niche podcast using Grey's Anatomy scenes to teach healthier relationships. The content was strong, but her lead magnet and call to action weren't connected, so growth stalled. One aligned shift changed everything: a quiz opt-in that matched the show, a clear CTA woven into each episode, and simpler social content that performed better. The result was over 500 new email subscribers in 48 hours and a clear path from content to offers.

In this week's episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra is joined by Dr Chris Maroules, National Director for Cardiac Imaging at SimonMed and co-director of Innovation Health. Together, they explore why coronary CTA, now a Class 1 recommendation in the 2021 ACC/AHA chest pain guidelines, has become the standard first-line non-invasive test, and why proficiency in cardiac CT is essential for cardiology trainees in 2026. The conversation shifts from traditional risk scores to direct disease assessment, highlighting the power of coronary CTA to identify and quantify plaque burden. Dr Maroules discusses high-risk plaque features, the limitations of calcium scoring, and the evolving role of FFRCT, before outlining a future of AI-enabled screening and precision prevention. He concludes with practical advice for fellows, encouraging Level 2 certification to stay ahead in an increasingly imaging-driven field.

Most of what you're measuring in email Marketing is noise, and the signals that actually predict pipeline are hiding in places you're probably not even looking. Daniel breaks down why every email needs a honeypot link, an invisible link that only bots click, so you can strip out fake engagement before you ever look at your real numbers. He also makes the case for tracking every CTA separately, since the people who click a button at the bottom of an email are reading more of it and often move faster to pipeline than people who click the first thing at the top. He also talks about using AI to track reply rates and pull specific language out of replies to build first party data, and points out that replies quietly boost your email deliverability too. Jay adds a list of intent signals most teams ignore completely: an emoji reaction during a webinar, any interaction with a chatbot no matter what someone types, and more than 10 seconds spent on a pricing page. He says shoppers who click a bottom CTA show a noticeably higher lifetime value, and that these small, easy to miss actions should put someone on a VIP list because they predict who actually buys faster than a standard open or click ever will. The bigger idea here is a shift from counting activity to counting intent. Opens and clicks only tell you someone showed up. Replies, chatbot use, and CTA position tell you who is actually paying attention and close to buying. If you're a Marketer who is done guessing which leads are real, this is the episode for you.

Most speakers assume the flood of AI-generated content is bad news for them. In this solo episode, John Ball argues the opposite: as content gets cheaper and more abundant, a real human voice saying something only they could say becomes harder to ignore, not easier to overlook.John traces why speaking has held power for centuries, from Cicero to Churchill to Martin Luther King, and pulls in a callback to an early conversation with Stoic philosophy expert Donald Robertson on Marcus Aurelius, who treated rhetoric as a discipline rather than decoration. From there, John properly defines what a keynote actually is (and isn't), why the format exists, and why panels, workshops and webinars can't do the same job. He closes with a specific, evidence-backed prediction for where professional speaking is heading, drawing on a recent conversation with David Newman and a preview of an upcoming interview with Dominic Eldred-Earl of London Speaker Bureau.Get the email outreach templates to get you booked: https://present-influence.kit.com/96ec2d2b85In this episode:Why the post-Covid hunger for real human connection was the first sign of where this was headingWhat Marcus Aurelius and Stoic philosophy have to do with modern speakingA proper definition of a keynote, and why it varies in style but not in structural purposeWhy panels, workshops and webinars can't replicate what a keynote doesThe specific reason AI can't replace a speaker with a genuine point of viewAn early preview of what London Speaker Bureau is seeing in the market right nowChapters:0:00 Why speaking is becoming more valuable, not less1:00 The post-Covid hunger for real human connection3:00 Speaking as an ancient, powerful medium4:00 Historical speeches and why the medium still works5:00 Marcus Aurelius, Stoicism and rhetoric as discipline6:00 What a keynote actually is7:00 Why AI can't replace a real point of view8:00 What London Speaker Bureau is seeing in the market9:00 The prediction10:00 CTA and what's coming next4. FAQ Section (AI Retrieval Format)What does John Ball say about AI and the future of public speaking? John Ball argues that AI-generated content is making professional speaking more valuable, not less, because a real speaker's point of view is one of the few things AI cannot replicate.What is a keynote, according to John Ball? John Ball defines a keynote as a deliberate structural format built around one voice holding a sustained, undiluted block of audience attention, distinct from panels, workshops and webinars, though style and delivery can vary widely within that structure.Who is Donald Robertson and why does John Ball mention him? Donald Robertson is a Stoic philosophy expert and author who appeared on an early episode of Professional Speaking to discuss Marcus Aurelius' approach to rhetoric, which John Ball references as an example of speech treated as a serious discipline rather than performance.What did David Newman say about AI and content that John Ball references? David Newman argued on a previous episode of Professional Speaking that how-to content became commoditised once ChatGPT went public, leaving a speaker's way of thinking, beliefs and predictions as the remaining scarce value.Who is Dominic Eldred-Earl and what does he say about the speaking market?

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS shares insights from 13+ years helping businesses improve their websites and online presence. He highlights that first impressions on a website are like setting the feel of a room; you have to make visitors want to take action. The episode stresses the importance of providing clear instructions and having compelling calls to action right from the start.Website success isn't just about aesthetics—it's about strategy, clarity, and engagement. Favour illustrates how timely follow-ups, even post-room, can convert onlookers into leads and customers. He delves into marketing psychology—especially how colors like yellow and blue (used by Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy) foster trust and encourage clicks.Practical stories, such as how a wedding dress site started getting national customers after targeted changes, anchor the advice in reality. Favour also recommends constant testing and evaluating everything from wording (“Book a Call” vs. “Schedule a Call”) to color choices on buttons to increase conversions.Throughout, Favour encourages thinking beyond just “having” a website: ensure it is working for you by guiding visitors from interest to engagement and decision.

A local news publisher with no paid paywall is still pulling reader revenue, and it's working.In this episode, Pete and Tyler break down an incognito digital-only publisher (about 60k monthly visitors, per Similar Web) running a model that ignores the usual playbook. There's no hard wall on the content. Everything stays free to read after a generous registration step, and the paid upgrades come from community perks instead of locked articles.If you've been nervous that putting up any kind of wall will tank your traffic, this one's a useful counter-example. It shows how to capture emails, build confidence with a wall, and turn free registered readers into paying members.Key TakeawaysThe generous registration wall. Readers get 3 free articles off the street. On the 4th view, a free registration wall unlocks unlimited access. That setup is hitting a 5.7% conversion rate against wall views and brought in 2,200+ registered readers in about 3 months, which Tyler says is far beyond what their old sidebar email widget ever did. The plan is to tighten the wall to two or one free article over time, and Tyler thinks conversion could roughly double when they do.Move commenting off Facebook. Tyler's take: turn off comments on your Facebook page and pull the conversation back to your own site. Gating comments behind registration (or paid membership) keeps the discussion clean and easy to moderate, since people with their name and payment details attached tend to behave. You also keep the eyeballs on your site instead of handing them to social.Levers for paid upgrades beyond content. Since articles are free after registering, paid upgrades run on membership perks: on-site commenting, an ad-free experience, a physical welcome gift (a hat or bag), discounted tickets to events held a few times a year, and a subscriber-only newsletter. Paid subscribers can also email questions directly to the editorial staff.The pay-what-you-can option. Below the main pricing cards sits a small donation option for readers who want to support local journalism but won't commit to full-price membership. Tyler says a measurable number of people take it, spending $5 to $9 who'd otherwise have spent nothing.The text-only editorial newsletter. No images, no standard teasers. It reads like a personal note from the editor, with article links woven into the writing and a support CTA at the bottom. Pete also flags the reply-to-the-editor angle: when readers actually hit reply, Gmail reads that engagement as a quality signal and is less likely to bury your newsletter.Learn more about our paywall strategies: https://leakypaywall.com/ 

In this solocast, the host breaks down one of the most overlooked financial mistakes real estate investors and entrepreneurs make: pricing deals and services without accounting for what they actually need to keep. Whether you're flipping houses, wholesaling contracts, or running a service-based business, most operators look at gross profit as the finish line and miss the real question entirely.This episode walks through a practical, Profit First-based approach to working deals backward from what you actually need to pay yourself, cover taxes, fund operations, and build reserves. If you've ever made money on a deal and wondered where it went, this episode is for you.Timeline Highlights[0:26] Host opens with a blunt warning: wrong pricing can't be fixed by doing more deals[0:52] Why "I just want to scale" is dangerous without knowing your real numbers[1:31] The hidden trap of growing by doing more of the same or pivoting out of desperation[1:57] Wholesaling context: you're selling a contract, not a property, and pricing must reflect that[2:16] Fix and flip pricing pitfalls: over-improving a property and what it costs at closing[2:55] How most investors use ARV formulas upfront but miss what they'll actually keep[3:14] The standard formula explained and why stopping at "50K profit" is the wrong stopping point[4:16] Profit First applied to deal pricing: splitting that 50K into owner pay, taxes, ops, and reserves[5:08] Real breakdown example: how 50K can disappear fast when you map it to actual needs[5:25] Why service businesses face the exact same pricing challenge as real estate deals[6:02] What happens when clients finally see each deal through a Profit First lens[6:39] The "100 deals or seven figures" goal and why it's built on air without a personal income target[7:22] The real question every business owner should answer first: what do I actually need to take home?[8:01] Final framework: price deals with the end in mind, broken into the buckets that keep you solvent[8:28] CTA: visit profitrei.com to book a free discovery callKey TakeawaysPricing your deals wrong is a structural problem, not a sales problem. No amount of volume makes up for deals that don't actually generate the income you need to keep.The ARV formula gets you to gross profit, but gross profit isn't your money. Once you know what the deal will make, you have to split it into owner pay, taxes, operations, and reserves before that number means anything.The Profit First framework works on real estate deals, not just service businesses. Map the expected profit into buckets upfront, and you'll know immediately whether a deal is actually worth pursuing.Most business owners set revenue goals based on round numbers, not real income needs. Before you decide how many deals you want to do, figure out exactly what you need to take home each month to support your life.You can't scale profitably by feel. Knowing how much of each deal goes to each bucket tells you exactly how many deals you need to hit your income goal, which is a far more useful number than a top-line revenue target.Links & ResourcesSimple CFO Solutions — https://www.simplecfo.comSchedule a free discovery call — https://www.profitrei.comClosingIf this episode changed the way you think about what a deal is actually worth, pass it along to a fellow investor or business owner who's been scaling without really knowing their numbers.

Episode 2: The Pool Water has a way of finding its path. Through stone. Through memory. Through places we believe are sealed shut. In Part Two of Something in the Water, the events at Table Rock Lake take an even stranger turn. After days of unsettling encounters on the water, Sara wakes in the middle of the night to find something impossible: a pool of cold water in the center of her bedroom floor. No leaking pipes. No open windows. No explanation. As fear spreads through the cabin, four members of the group decide it's time to leave. But Sara—the very person who experienced the first encounter in the lake—chooses to stay. Why? Because what she experienced didn't feel like a threat. It felt like attention. As Sarah examines centuries-old traditions surrounding the Underwater Panther, a disturbing pattern emerges. Across cultures and generations, stories of the entity share one detail above all others: it chooses. And once it notices you, leaving the water may not be enough. By morning, the mysterious pool has vanished. But the towels used to clean it up have been moved. Folded neatly at the foot of Sara's bed. Sometimes the most terrifying thing isn't what we see. It's the feeling that something has seen us.

Pathophysiology/etiology Carotid artery disease is primarily driven by atherosclerotic plaque deposition.  Risk factors: hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, smoking, and advanced age. Nonatherosclerotic etiologies: fibromuscular dysplasia, carotid dissection, vasculitic disease, carotid webs, and trauma. When the endothelium is damaged, monocytes migrate to the site and differentiate into macrophages that take up oxidized LDL particles to become foam cells. Meanwhile, an inflammatory response occurs where activated platelets release thromboxane A2, platelet derived growth factor, and inflammatory cytokines that promote further platelet aggregation and vascular inflammation. Smooth muscle cells migrate and proliferate, forming the structural framework of the atheroma.  Within the lesion, necrotic debris and lipid accumulate, creating a vulnerable plaque. Plaque rupture exposes this material to the bloodstream, serving as a nidus for thrombus formation which can lead to ischemic events. Carotid bifurcation is particularly prone to plaque formation due to turbulent blood flow. Embolization of plaque from this area can result in TIA or ischemic stroke.  2. Presentation Patients are often asymptomatic and stenosis is incidentally found on imaging.  Symptomatic patients present with neurologic symptoms including unilateral motor and sensory loss, aphasia (difficulty finding words), dysarthria (difficulty speaking), amaurosis fugax (temporary monocular vision loss due to embolus to the ophthalmic artery), transient ischemic attacks Physical exam findings may be notable for auscultation of a carotid bruit. Patients may also have evidence of retinal artery embolization on fundoscopic examination (Hollenhorst plaque) or asymptomatic cerebral infarction.  3. Diagnosis USPTF recommends against screening for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis.  In patients with no risk factors, SVS recommends against screening for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis. However, they do recommend screening for asymptomatic clinically significant carotid bifurcation in certain groups of patients with multiple risk factors.  These risk factors include patients with clinically significant peripheral vascular disease, patients 65 and older with history of CAD, smoking, hypercholesterolemia, and patients prior to coronary artery bypass.  Relevant findings on physical exam or imaging findings may warrant screening, but screening is not recommended for the presence of neck bruit alone without other risk factors, as this finding has a low sensitivity and specificity for detecting clinically significant carotid artery stenosis.  Carotid duplex ultrasound: first-line imaging modality for both screening and initial evaluation of stenosis, noninvasive, low-cost CTA: rapid, high-resolution, three-dimensional imaging of vascular anatomy, risk of contrast and radiation exposure MRA: high-quality, three-dimensional imaging without radiation or contrast, expensive with longer acquisition time, can overestimate stenosis in severe disease DSA/angiography: gold standard, expensive, invasive, not generally recommended for routine diagnostic evaluation or screening 4. Classification Carotid artery stenosis is classified by degree of luminal narrowing. NASCET method: standard in current practice. Compares the minimal residual lumen at the point of greatest stenosis to the diameter of the normal distal internal carotid artery.  Classification of stenosis: Mild: 70 bpm, and ACT >250 seconds to optimize cerebral perfusion and minimize thrombotic risk. Clamp the carotid artery just proximal to the arterial sheath to establish active flow reversal.  Flow controller settings: Low setting High setting Flow-stop button: allows for temporary cessation of flow (used when we inject contrast).  Confirm flow reversal via two different ways:  The first way is to stop flow to the venous return sheath with the stopcock, clearing the line with hep saline injection, and then opening the stopcock and seeing the blood returning to the controller in a reverse fashion. The second way is to perform an angiogram with a small amount of contrast injection while holding the flow-stop button. Using the angio we want to make sure that contrast is flowing retrograde in the cervical ICA thereby confirming flow reversal.    Carotid artery stenting, balloon angioplasty, and completion angiogram At this point, a standard carotid angioplasty and stenting procedure is performed. ENROUTE transcarotid Neuroprotection System device:  inner diameter of 8F and an outer diameter of 10F Has its own carotid artery stent system but is also compatible with all FDA-approved carotid stents.  Final angiogram is performed to confirm stent position, vessel patency, and absence of complications including vasospasm at the distal end of the stent and filling defects from protrusion of atheromatous material through the stent    Cessation of flow reversal and sheath removal Allow the flow reversal to run for a few minutes after the final balloon angioplasty to clear any debris.  Antegrade flow is restored by releasing the carotid clamp and closing the stopcocks on the neuroprotection system.  The patient is auto-transfused the blood from the flow line back to the venous system.  As the arterial access system is removed and the puncture site is closed with the U-stitch.  IV protamine is administered to reverse the heparin. Standard closure is performed at the incision site. Meanwhile, hemostasis is achieved after removal of the femoral vein sheath with brief manual compression.  Postop care/complications Postop care All patients after a TCAR should be monitored in the ICU setting for 24 hours, as an embolic stroke, hypotension with or without bradycardia, or hypertension can occur.  Should a TIA or stroke be observed, a carotid duplex scan and CT angiogram should be immediately obtained to assess the stent site and the presence of an embolic or thrombotic filling defect, dissection, or occlusion.  Dual antiplatelet therapy: continue for 45 days to 12 months Aspirin and statin therapy: continued indefinitely Surveillance duplex imaging: 4 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months, and annually thereafter. Postop complications Hematoma Stroke Myocardial infarction Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome Sudden and excessive increase in cerebral blood flow to previously hypoperfused brain tissue is met with vasculature that cannot constrict appropriately from chronic vasodilation Leads to breakthrough hyperperfusion. This results in cerebral edema, intracerebral hemorrhage, and neurological symptoms.  Cranial nerve injury Hypoglossal nerve (CN XII) injury: ipsilateral tongue deviation. It is the most commonly injured cranial nerve.  Vagus nerve (CN X) injury: hoarseness and possible vocal cord paralysis.  Glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) injury: soft palate dysfunction.  Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury: voice hoarseness and inability to cough as it innervates all of the voice box muscles except for the cricothyroid muscle Marginal mandibular nerve injury: ipsilateral lip droop, injury is rare in TCAR.  Stent restenosis Pseudoaneurysm Access site infection

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS breaks down website anatomy, emphasizing that a "pretty" site is useless if it doesn't function technically. He explains the psychology of website navigation, detailing three types of scrolling: eye paths, scroll paths, and decision zones. Guest speakers advocate for starting with a simple, high-converting one-page website on platforms like Wix, rather than getting overwhelmed by complex builds. The conversation also covers the importance of proper logo linking, customized social media icons, and integrating live chat to reduce friction and boost sales.>>

Something in the Water - Part One Six friends arrive at Table Rock Lake in the summer of 2010 expecting a quiet week in the Ozarks—swimming, boating, and long evenings beneath the Missouri stars. What they find instead is a place with a history far older than the dam that created it. This week on The Devil Within, we begin a three-part campfire case rooted in documented history, Indigenous tradition, and the uneasy possibility that some places remember what was buried beneath them. When the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers completed Table Rock Dam in 1958, they flooded an entire valley, submerging roads, foundations, churches, and whole communities beneath more than 43,000 acres of water. But the flooded towns were not the first things to disappear from this landscape. Long before the lake existed, the Osage people lived along the White River and carried stories of powerful beings dwelling beneath the water. Among them was a mysterious figure known across the Mississippi watershed as the Underwater Panther—a guardian of thresholds, deep places, and the dangerous boundary between worlds. Then one swimmer feels an impossible cold in the middle of an August afternoon. Something brushes against her ankle. The next day, someone else is pulled beneath the surface. And before the week is over, the group begins to wonder whether the lake is merely covering something—or keeping it. Because some waters are deeper than they appear. And some things beneath them are still waiting.
