The U.S. Constitution can feel intimidating—but what if understanding it is one of the most empowering things you can do? This week, JVN sits down with constitutional law professor, legal scholar, and Strict Scrutiny co-host Melissa Murray to unpack what the Constitution actually says, how it's evolved over time, and what it does to shape our daily lives here in the U.S. Together, they break down the myths, the amendments, and the big debates that continue to define U.S. democracy. From the origins of Prohibition to the long fight for women's rights, Melissa explains why the Constitution was designed to change—and why “We the People” have always been central to that process. They also explore what rights the Constitution does (and doesn't) guarantee, how constitutional amendments come to be, and what power ordinary people have to shape the country's future.

This episode was sponsored by Cardiff & East Coast Business Brokers LLC Today's Dropping Bombs episode features Henry Galasso — a New York broker who started with $5,000 and a stack of business cards. Twenty-one years later, he's sold over 1,000 businesses and built one of the most dominant brokerage operations on the East Coast, now expanding into 37 states. Henry breaks down why most businesses aren't actually sellable, how a personal brand can quietly destroy your company's valuation, and why a $10+ trillion wave of boomer-owned businesses is about to flood the market. Plus, the one thing that separates brokers who close from the ones who disappear. If you own a business and haven't thought about your exit, you're already behind. This conversation could be worth more than whatever your company is worth right now — because knowing the number is just the beginning.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: Anonymous: I'm a 46-year-old female (163 cm, 81.5 kg) recent leg swelling, especially left leg with significant fluid from the knee into the foot. Blood clot + kidney issues are ruled out, but ALT is at 209 U/L (10–45). In January a doctor diagnosed lipedema stage 1–2 in legs and arms, left leg was not swollen like this then. My legs may swell slightly in heat, but not in Denmark. EquiLife labs are not possible here. I look 6–7 mths pregnant all day, not hard, no gas. Difficulty losing weight detoxes no longer effective. Diet smoothie (berries, kale, DNS, chia,psyllium,creatine,collagen), lunch cauliflower rice, chicken, arugula, dinner potatoes/meat/veg, pasta 1–2xweek, water + 1–2 drinks/week.I'm peri started bioidentical hormones in January hot flashes gone, mood improved. If I was your wife? Sarah: Hello! I had a question about 'fascia blasting'. Despite doing everything you recommend for cellulite for years now, I still have it on my legs. For a few weeks ive been trying fascia blasting with device and my legs have improved so much. They feel firmer, less painful to touch, and cellulite has improved. I cant believe the results. Curious what your thoughts are on this. Is it 'dangerous' (as some comments online say), is there any science behind it? My skin does bruise alot after I do it, but this doesnt bother me as the results I've been seeing are great. Always trust your imput, thanks so much!! Trent: Hi, I have never had trouble sleeping up until around 6 weeks ago. When it first started, I started waking up in between 3-4am, having very deep vivid dreams every night. Most of the times I could get back to sleep not long after but sometimes if I wake at around 5am I stay awake. My sleep time does vary a bit but I usually get around on average 6.5-7 hours a night, sometimes more and sometimes less. Previously I had never had any troubles sleeping and would never consistently wake up at these times. 2 things I know I need to limit or stop doing is taking my laptop into bed and limit my sugar intake. I do not feel stressed at the moment but I do have some big decision to make this year that are always on my mind. Sarah: Hello! I've recently been hearing about chlorine neutralizer sprays that some parents use on children before or after swimming. From what I understand, many contain vitamin C or similar ingredients that are supposed to neutralize chlorine or chloramines on the skin and hair to help reduce irritation or exposure. I wanted to ask your opinion on them. Do you think these sprays are actually beneficial or safe for regular use on children? Are they helpful for kids with sensitive skin, eczema, or allergies, or is rinsing/showering after swimming usually enough? I've also seen some claims online about reducing chlorine absorption into the body, and I'm not sure how accurate that is. Are there better natural approaches for protecting skin before or after swimming in chlorine pools? Thanks! Audrey: Hi Dr. Cabral, Is greenhouse grown lettuce as nutritious as non greenhouse grown? The package states not sprayed with any pesticides. I try to get my lettuce from my local farmers market but sometimes I cannot make it there. The greenhouse grown seems to be much fresher and better quality than regular store lettuce Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3795 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

That plan became Northeast Woodworks, a high-end custom cabinet shop he built from a two-car garage in Connecticut, packed up, and rebuilt from scratch in Central Oregon. Josh and his business partner Alex Reid break down how a solo cabinet maker can clear half a million a year, why blue-collar trades are becoming the new white collar, and how they've built a growing community teaching anyone — skilled or starting from zero — to launch and grow a cabinet business through Cabinet Mastery. Whether you're deep in addiction, stuck in a dead-end job, or just looking for a business you can build with your hands — Josh built his way out of all three. Now he's showing everyone else how.

Olaitan Fashanu: The PO Who Doesn't Care vs the PO Who Always Has the Answer Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. In this episode, we refer to a recurring theme in past podcast episodes—the proxy product owner who can't make decisions because they're not theirs to make. The Great Product Owner: Always Available, Always Decisive, Always Has the Context Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "There was nothing you tell, any questions you have about a particular feature that this guy doesn't have an answer to. And that really moved the team so fast." - Olaitan Fashanu The best PO Olaitan ever worked with was the mirror opposite of every anti-pattern he'd seen. Deeply involved in refinement. Took backlog management seriously. Always brought the context. Always available to the team. And—maybe most importantly—always ready to make a decision when devs surfaced trade-offs. The team could ask any question about any feature, and the answer was right there. Not "let me check," not "I'll get back to you," not "what do you think?"—a decision. That single quality, Olaitan says, was what moved the team faster than anything else. As a Scrum Master, when you see a great PO at work, you also see the amplifying waves of impact: motivation rises, quality rises, ownership grows. Olaitan's takeaway is sharp: the success of our job depends on how well the product owner does theirs. Self-reflection Question: When was the last time your PO made a real-time decision that unblocked the team in a single conversation—and what's preventing that from being the norm? The Bad Product Owner: Doesn't Care About Impact, Can't Make Decisions Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "The product owner cares about delivery. We just need to release to the customer. That is something I don't like." - Olaitan Fashanu Olaitan describes two anti-patterns wrapped into one bad-PO type. The first: the PO who doesn't care about the impact of their work on the team. Tickets dropped without context. No refinement. No problem framing. Just "ship by end of month." The data shows up in Jira if you're paying attention—patterns of churn, quality issues, customer complaints, slow market response. Beyond the numbers, the team loses motivation, frustration creeps in, and eventually you lose the team entirely. The second anti-pattern, layered on top: the PO who can't make decisions. Developers come back with two options and the trade-offs—and the PO can't pick one. Vasco connects it to the proxy PO pattern explored in past episodes—a PO whose decisions aren't actually theirs to make. The cost is the same either way: the team stalls, ownership erodes, and stakeholder conflict grows. In this segment, we refer to the proxy PO anti-pattern explored in earlier episodes of the podcast. Self-reflection Question: Is your PO unable to decide—or unable to be allowed to decide? The difference changes which conversation you need to have, and with whom.

2021 was a whirlwind, packed with both personal and global challenges that shook me to my core. From heartbreaking family losses to the brink of quitting my beloved podcast, "About Progress," every twist demanded a new sense of resilience. In taking a step back that summer, I stumbled onto an unexpected path of self-discovery and transformation. But what exactly did that pivotal break reveal, and how did it reshape my journey? Reflecting on this year of change taught me that the moments of discomfort often hide the most valuable lessons. Embracing authenticity over established norms opened doors I never imagined, both for me and my community. Curious about the twists and turns that led to a profound shift in my life's work? Tune in to find out how a seemingly ordinary year became a turning point, sparking growth that continues to this day.

Olaitan Fashanu: I Love Data—Why Success for a Scrum Master Means Doing the Hard Measurement Work Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "You don't get better by not trying to be better." - Vasco Duarte (channeling Olaitan's own discipline) For Olaitan, success as a Scrum Master comes down to two things—team effectiveness and team health—and he refuses to guess at either. Twice a year, in what he calls his winter and summer cycles, he runs a structured team health check survey to capture how confident people feel, whether they hold each other accountable, and whether psychological safety is real or theatrical. Between those checkpoints, he runs constant one-on-ones—and not just with developers. QAs, designers, the PO. Everyone gets the conversation. He pulls outside-in feedback from customers and partner teams too, because effectiveness measured only from the inside is fiction. "I love data. Maybe it's my background in mathematics. I love looking at patterns, comparing things." The work is real, the load is real—but for Olaitan, refusing to do it is the same as refusing to grow. Self-reflection Question: If you had to prove to yourself today that your team is genuinely effective and healthy, what data would you actually have—and what would you only be guessing at? Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Start / Stop / Continue (and a twist Vasco offers Olaitan) Olaitan's go-to is the simple Start / Stop / Continue format—the easiest way he's found to get even quiet developers to engage, especially at the start of a new iteration. Vasco offers him a twist mid-episode: what if you only used one of the three? When the team is overwhelmed, run a Stop-only retro. When a release just shipped and energy is high, run a Start-only retro. Breaking the format pattern creates a small spark of "wait, why is this different today?"—which is often exactly the energy a tired team needs. Olaitan also shares a second favorite: the Friction vs. Drivers (or Fuel) format—mapping what's slowing the team down on one side and what's actively energizing them on the other. The two sides of the same coin, made visible. [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

This week's Caveat Briefing covers how Anthropic has agreed to a $1.5 billion settlement with authors and publishers, marking the largest payout in U.S. copyright history after a judge ruled the company illegally downloaded millions of pirated books. While the court found that using legally obtained books to train AI models was fair use, Anthropic was held liable for acquiring works from shadow libraries like Library Genesis. The deal underscores growing legal pressure on AI companies and could push others toward licensing agreements or costly settlements to resolve copyright disputes. Curious about the details?

Olaitan Fashanu: Three Teams, Three Backlogs, One Feature—Can You Make Them See Each Other? Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "How do we ensure that these teams actually work together to show the same data?" - Olaitan Fashanu Olaitan brings a problem most Scrum Masters in scaled environments will recognize. Three teams. Three separate backlogs. One product, accessed across app, web, and support channels. Leadership made a top-down team topologies decision: split the work to move faster. Predictable result—each team optimizes for their own backlog, blind to what the others are building, sometimes shipping the same feature twice with different behaviors. The product owners know there's overlap. The teams love the idea of linking tickets across backlogs. They just won't maintain the habit. Olaitan and Vasco walk through experiments together: a sync between POs, joint refinement sessions, linking tickets, putting "this is also being built by Team B" notes at the top of stories. The deeper insight: the Scrum Master's job is to keep surfacing information until a habit forms. As Vasco's old lifting coach put it—you find the imbalance, you get rid of the imbalance, one by one. That's how you get stronger. In this episode, we refer to team topologies and the practice of surfacing information across team boundaries. Self-reflection Question: Where in your organization are teams unknowingly building the same thing twice—and what's the smallest experiment you could run this week to make that visible?

Curious? Take The Free Money Stress Quiz!Ready? Buy Our Simplified Budget System Now!We know paying off debt can feel like the urgent, obvious first step. But in this episode, Shana and Vanessa are flipping that script a little.Because here's the truth: if we attack debt without savings buckets, spending accounts, and a real plan for upcoming expenses, we're probably going to end up right back on the credit card.This episode is all about creating the kind of budget system that actually supports real life. We're talking about spending accounts, savings buckets, debt payoff, single mom budgeting, and why there is no one-size-fits-all plan for your money.Before we get aggressive with debt, we need to make sure our budget is actually working. That means getting everything on paper, separating our spending, and knowing what money is for bills, what money is for everyday spending, and what money needs to be saved for things coming up.Savings buckets are not optional fluff. They are what help us stop relying on credit cards when life happens. Christmas, birthdays, property taxes, vacations, kids' activities, travel, and repairs are not surprises if we know they're coming.Debt payoff does not have to be all or nothing. Sometimes we pay extra on debt, sometimes we pause to save for an upcoming expense, and sometimes we do both at the same time. The goal is to stop the cycle for good.A spending account can be simple. For some of us, it might be one account to start. For others, it might be separate accounts for groceries, eating out, personal spending, and kids. The best system is the one we'll actually use.Financial coaching helps take the guesswork out of all of this.

Have you ever found yourself standing outside your teen's bedroom door, wondering whether to knock or walk away? Or lying awake at night questioning whether you're helping too much, not helping enough, or somehow getting it all wrong? In this episode, I'm exploring the tension so many of us moms face as we parent teens and navigate the empty nest: knowing when to step in and when to let go. When your child seems withdrawn, unmotivated, or not quite themselves, how do you respond without letting fear make the decision for you? I'll unpack why this struggle isn't really about finding the perfect parenting strategy. It's about understanding the mindset driving your worry, self-doubt, and urge to control the outcome. I'll show you how to separate facts from fear, stop overthinking, and make decisions with greater confidence.

Noah breaks down the $42 billion government fiber gold rush hiding in plain sight, why door-to-door sales is the ultimate unfair advantage for young people with no degree and no capital, and the exact mindset shift that separates reps who quit from the ones clearing $20–$40K a month.

What should happen to drivers who kill or injure someone with their car? Does a focus on punishment for "reckless" or "dangerous" drivers let everyone else off the hook and never force them to look at the larger harms of a transportation system based around personal car ownership? Those are the questions asked by Ian Loader, a professor of criminology at the University of Oxford, who argues that the law's focus on "motonormative punishment" is just another way of masking the larger problems caused by a car-dominant society. In a new study, Professor Loader proposes a vastly different way of thinking about criminal punishment organized around five harm reduction principles. Plus, is it really wrong for news outlets to write headlines like "Pedestrian Hit By Car," or is there more to it than advocates are willing to admit? ***Join The War on Cars on Patreon and listen to exclusive ad-free versions of regular episodes, Patreon-only bonus content, Discord access, invitations to live events, merch discounts and free stickers!*** SHOW NOTES: Read Professor Ian Loader's study, "Beyond Motonormative Punishment: On Road Safety as Environmental Regulation."

Most women have been told their cycle is something to manage, track for fertility, or push through. What almost no one is saying is that your cycle is a second biological clock running inside your body at all times. The circadian rhythm is roughly 24 hours and is governed by light. The infradian rhythm is roughly 28 days and is governed by the menstrual cycle. Men have one main rhythm. Women have two. This is not a flaw in our design. It is added intelligence. In this solo episode, Michelle walks you through what is actually happening underneath the surface of each phase. Your brain structure shifts across the cycle. Your immune system, metabolism, insulin sensitivity, microbiome, and nervous system are all moving with you. You will learn why the same stressor can feel completely different from one week to the next, why luteal phase cravings are real signals and not willpower failures, and how to begin matching your work, food, and rest to the phase you are actually in. Whether you are trying to conceive or simply want to stop fighting your own body, this episode offers a more accurate map of how you are designed to function. Key Takeaways: Women have two main biological rhythms. The circadian rhythm is roughly 24 hours. The infradian rhythm is roughly 28 days and is governed by the menstrual cycle. Most lifestyle and research advice is built around the male 24-hour clock, which is part of why so many women feel exhausted. Your brain structure literally changes across the cycle. The hippocampus shifts in volume, connectivity between regions changes, and verbal fluency, spatial reasoning, and pain perception all move with the phases. Feeling like a different person at different times of the month is neurobiology, not emotional volatility. Your immune system is rhythmic. It is more active in the first half of the cycle and shifts after ovulation, when progesterone becomes mildly immunosuppressive to prepare the uterus for a possible embryo. This is why colds, autoimmune flares, and allergies can shift across the month. Basal metabolic rate rises slightly in the luteal phase, and insulin sensitivity changes. The same meal can land differently depending on where you are in your cycle. Luteal phase cravings are often a real signal of higher energy needs. The gut and vaginal microbiomes also shift cyclically with hormones. You are not a static system. Everything inside your body moves with you. Heart rate variability tends to be higher in the follicular phase and lower in the luteal phase. The same stressor can land very differently depending on when in the month it arrives. Your nervous system is operating from a different baseline. From a TCM perspective, the liver works harder in the luteal phase to prepare for menstruation, which can show up as more irritability, less energy, and stagnation when qi is not flowing freely. Working with the cycle is not just a fertility tool. It is a way of living that supports energy, focus, mood, and recovery across the entire month. Practical starting points: track more than your period (energy, sleep, mood, focus, hunger, stress response), match the work to the phase when possible, and eat in a way that responds to what your body is actually doing in each phase. Host Bio: Michelle Oravitz, L.Ac., FABORM, is a board-certified fertility acupuncturist, Ayurvedic practitioner, and author of The Way of Fertility. She is the host of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, where she explores the intersection of Traditional Chinese Medicine, modern fertility science, nervous system health, and the deeper, often overlooked terrain of mind-body fertility. Through her clinical practice and online programs, Michelle works with women trying to conceive and with practitioners who want to bring a more holistic, integrated approach into their work. Research and Resources Cited: Brain structure and function changes across the menstrual cycle (hippocampal volume) Cyclical changes in hippocampal volume across the menstrual cycle Menstrual cycle effects on cognition: verbal fluency and spatial reasoning Pain perception and threat sensitivity across the menstrual cycle Progesterone and immune modulation in the luteal phase Basal metabolic rate variation across the menstrual cycle Insulin sensitivity and the menstrual cycle Gut microbiome variation across the menstrual cycle Vaginal microbiome shifts across the menstrual cycle Heart rate variability across the menstrual cycle Cortisol and HPA axis response across the menstrual cycle Disclaimer: The information shared on this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Olaitan Fashanu: When the New PO Stops Refining—and the Team Starts Self-Destructing Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "If we're actually doing the job of refining this ticket properly, then we will not be creating this tension in the team." - Olaitan Fashanu The team was working well. They had a strong PO who came to refinement with the problem clearly framed: this is what we want to solve, here's the context, here's the user story, here are the acceptance criteria. The team picked it up, refined it, ran with it. Then change came. A new PO joined—and the routine collapsed. The new PO cared about one thing: hitting the delivery date. Tickets dropped into Jira with no context, no problem statement, no acceptance criteria. Just "this needs to ship by end of month." Within weeks, Olaitan saw the symptoms cascade through the team. Developers asked designers what tickets even meant. QA struggled to maintain quality. Tension built. The diagnosis was clear: refinement had broken. His fix? Bring back the Definition of Ready as a non-negotiable shared standard, and introduce a product trio—business viability, technical feasibility, and design usability collaborating on every story before it reaches the rest of the team. In this segment, we talk about the Definition of Ready and the product trio collaboration model. Self-reflection Question: What's the symptom you're seeing in your team right now—and could the real source be how stories are getting refined, not how they're getting built? Featured Book of the Week: The Secrets of Facilitation by Michael Wilkinson Olaitan calls out The Secrets of Facilitation by Michael Wilkinson as the book that shaped how he handles difficult moments. The book teaches the power of asking the right question at the right time—clarifying questions, probing questions, the questions that drive a stuck group forward. "You will understand how, when to ask clarifying questions, ask really powerful questions that will help you drive or probably help you reach your goal in any session you find yourself." For Olaitan, the biggest payoff was learning to manage group dynamics in real time—what to do when something said in a meeting lands badly, when a comment threatens to derail the room. As a Scrum Master, you live in those moments. This book hands you a toolkit for them. [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Most abstract painters think layering means adding more. More color. More texture. More paint. But there's a version of layering that suffocates a painting, and a version that gives it real depth. The difference isn't talent. It's intention. And you don't need art school to develop it. In this episode, Jodie breaks down how five artists used layering in completely different ways, and exactly what you can steal from each of them for your own studio practice today. You'll walk away knowing: How Richter used scraping and trowels to reveal the painting underneath and how to do it yourself with tools you already own Why Rothko's transparent glazes created depth that opaque paint simply cannot touch What Van Gogh's impasto marks teach us about building texture that reads as intentional, not chaotic How Cy Twombly left things unresolved on purpose and why it draws the viewer in deeper The three questions to ask yourself before you add another layer Make sure to subscribe so you never miss an episode.

What if the solution to feeling overwhelmed wasn't becoming more productive, but getting more support?

Olaitan Fashanu: The Scrum Master Who Tried to Force His Way In—and Got Schooled Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "When you want to make things work, you need to find a way to carry people along. Lead, not by forcing your way on the team, because you're working with smart people, you're working with professionals." - Olaitan Fashanu When Olaitan transitioned from project management into the Scrum Master role, he carried his old habits with him: enforce, push, drive. Then he walked into a team of senior developers. In one retrospective, a team member casually suggested that someone could help set up Jira properly. Olaitan took it personally—wasn't that his job? The next day in the daily standup, he called it out publicly. The reaction told him everything. The team member shut down. The PO pulled him aside afterward to say, "We could have had a better discussion around this." That moment, Olaitan realized that having no formal authority isn't a weakness to compensate for with force—it's the whole point. The job is to influence, to nudge, to coach—even when the conversations are hard. Especially when they are hard. Self-reflection Question: When was the last time you raised a difficult topic in a way that closed the conversation instead of opening it—and what would it have cost you to bring it up differently?

Brian reveals the mindset shift that took him from cleaning ponds to scaling a multimillion-dollar operation, why a single koi can go from $100 to $10,000 as it grows, and why the backyard swim pond is quietly making the swimming pool obsolete. This is what it looks like when someone goes all in on the thing everyone else ignored — and gets filthy rich doing it.

This episode was sponsored by Cardiff LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode delivers a masterclass in tax warfare with Mark Lewis — a federally-licensed Enrolled Agent who spent 15 years battling the IRS before cracking the code on strategies the ultra-wealthy and big corporations have quietly used for decades. Now he helps small and mid-size business owners slash their taxes below 25%, protect assets from lawsuits, and build generational wealth using the same corporate structures as 9-figure companies. Mark breaks down why your S-Corp is a trap, how Amazon-level corporate structuring is legally available to small business owners, and the six financial lies keeping most entrepreneurs overpaying by thousands every year. From the "earn vs. control" mindset shift, to the Augusta Rule, offshore trust myths, and why your CPA's silence is costing you more than their fee — this episode covers it all. If you're making money and handing more of it to the IRS than Fortune 500 companies do, that's not a tax problem — it's a structure problem. And this episode tells you exactly what to do about it.
Can we get a hallelujah? Maren Morris is here! This week, JVN sits down with Grammy-winning artist Maren Morris to celebrate the 10th anniversary of HERO and explore the lessons she's learned about growth, courage, and staying curious along the way. From navigating difficult conversations across political divides to finding the confidence to speak up when it matters, Maren shares how using her voice has shaped both her career and her personal life. She opens up about motherhood, how raising her son has given her the opportunity to reparent herself, and why some of life's biggest transformations happen when we're willing to get uncomfortable. Together, JVN and Maren break down adult friendships, the importance of stepping outside our echo chambers, lessons learned from her mom, and what it really means to stay connected in an increasingly divided world. Plus - an iconic Dolly Parton story. Wanna see JVN on stage? Get tix to the Hot & Healed Comedy Tour here. Full Video Episodes now available on YouTube.
