This journey was born from an inner calling I couldn't ignore—one that led me to confront feelings of guilt, conditioning, and the weight of societal expectations placed on women. As I walked among ancient ruins and connected with the energy of the land, I found myself shedding old layers and stepping into a deeper sense of self. I speak candidly about what it means to follow your intuition, even when it doesn't make sense to others, and how this trip became a catalyst for rediscovering my voice and power.Through the lens of my upbringing and life experiences, I explore the profound transformation that occurs when we expose ourselves to new cultures and ways of being. Greece reminded me that womanhood is not confined to roles or rules—it's a living, breathing force that evolves as we do. In sharing this journey, my hope is to inspire you to listen to the whispers of your soul, to challenge the patterns that no longer serve you, and to step into the most authentic version of yourself. This episode is a heartfelt invitation to all women who are ready to rise, remember, and reclaim their truth.IN THIS EPISODE:(0:00) Welcome to the Greece series(1:24) A wild heart's journey(1:40) Childhood dreams and travel aspirations(3:41) Overcoming financial barriers(8:11) First experiences in Greece(14:27) The call to return to Greece(16:21) Embracing new patterns and beliefs(23:17) The importance of self-care and rest(26:33) Deciding to take the leap

We began a new series about analyzing the gurus! We'll be spending time discussing several big personal finance names, their recommendations, and why we do or do not agree with those. Josh and Emily discuss Ramit Sethi, his philosophy of a “rich life,” his “conscious spending plan,” and his take on investing. Top takeaways: Broad-based percentage-based structures just don't work for everyone. The emphasis on a rich life and guilt-free spending can lead to people to focus on necessities and fun money at the expense of savings. Automation can be great as long as you reevaluate and adjust things over time. Houses are great hedges against inflation in retirement. Ramit's rant against AUM and financial advisers just doesn't make sense. Related episodes: Episode #130: The 411 on HSAs Want help building or growing a successful financial coaching business?

In this episode, I'm diving into a potent truth: manifestation doesn't begin with desire—it begins with decision. I'll share what the word decide actually means (spoiler: it's more powerful than you think), how indecision leaks your energy, and why making a soul-aligned decision is often the turning point to clarity, momentum, and manifestation. We'll explore the energetic shift that happens when you stop waiting and fully claim what you want, plus how to align your identity, actions, and intuition with the version of you who already has it. This is about walking through the door and closing it behind you—fully choosing your next level. This episode is here to activate something deep within you… It's time to choose.

Fighting between Israel and Iran is in its sixth day. Thousands of people have fled Tehran to get away from Israel's bombing campaign. They - and the world - are waiting to see what the U.S. President does next. Asked about whether his country would take a more active role in the bombing, Donald Trump said, “I may do it, I may not do it. Nobody knows what I'm going to do.”And: As the world waits to see what is next between Israel, Iran and the U.S., attention has shifted from the war in Gaza. We'll have an update, and more on what Israelis think of the fighting spreading in the Middle East.Also: 3-year-old girl found safe near a major highway after being missing for days.Plus: The dangers of cycling and walking, kids caring for adults, and more.

We begin a new series about analyzing the gurus! We'll be spending time discussing several big personal finance names, their recommendations, and why we do or do not agree with those. First up, arguably the biggest–Dave Ramsey! Josh and Amelie tackle the baby steps. Top takeaways: His foundational advice is not bad, it's just overly simplistic/broad. Because of the nature of inflation, $1000 today is much less than it was when he originally came up with it. Not all debt is bad. It basically never makes financial sense to pay student loans or a mortgage off earlier. Dave's investment advice is not good and his return estimate is way too high.

Deciding where to "place" an instrument is one of the biggest decisions of a mixing engineer. Simply putting a guitar in the left, right, or center can completely change the vibe of a song.But there are more ways to trick the brain than on!

Send us a textI wanted to start the show today with a disclaimer. I do not and never have condoned criminal behavior. I was a cop for 25 years, and my heart is with the men and women who enforce the law and bring criminals to justice. That being said, I wanted to bring you, the listener/viewer, a different perspective. One from an unapologetic outlaw living out the last chapters of his life (who knows, maybe he will live to a 100). I think it's good to see both sides of the coin. I may not agree with everything he says or stands for, but we can sit down and have a civilized conversation, something that is desperately missing in today's society, I think.  So, my guest on today's show George Christie, has spent some time in prison and was the president of the Ventura Chapter of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club from 1978 to 2011. In 2011 he walked away from the Hells Angels and resigned his membership. A short time later, the club turned their backs on him and considered him in ‘bad standing,' which is a kick in the gut for someone who dedicated his life to the outlaw club. It's kind of like it never happened. George's life is like something out of a movie. He has gone to war with rival bike gangs like the Outlaws and Mongols and has had at least two contracts out to kill him. He was in the hot seat on the news show 60 Minutes, where he was grilled by Mike Wallace.  He spent a year in solitary confinement and also carried the Olympic torch for the 1984 games in Los Angeles and had a blowup with the Kennedys. One thing is for sure: George is not boring! Please enjoy part one of my interview with George Christie.In today's episode we discuss:·      Lessons learned from coming from an immigrant family.·      Joining the Marines and later working for the Department of Defense. ·      Deciding to devote his life to the Hells Angels. ·      The process and initiation for becoming a Hells Angel.·      How George was elected club president in a short amount of time. ·      Being the spokesman for the Hells Angels.·      There is nothing more important to a member of the Hells Angels than the club. Everything else takes a back seat. How did he function like that? There is work, spirituality, marriage, kids, and friends. They all play second fiddle if you're an Angel.·      Carrying the Olympic torch. Feuding with the Kennedys/Shriver's and winning! All of this and more on today's episode of the Cops and Writers podcast.Ride over to George's website to learn more about him and his books!Check out the new Cops and Writers YouTube channel!Check out my newest book, The Good Collar (Michael Quinn Vigilante Justice Series Book 1)!!!!!Enjoy the Cops and Writers book series.Please visit the Cops and Writers website.What would you do if you lost the one you loved the most?

The pair successfully avoid guards and find themselves halted by a pair of locked doors. Trix is able to pick the lock on one but the other proves to be more of a challenge. Deciding they have a 50/50 chance, they head down the hallway and hope for the best. Meanwhile, Zero realizes that there are levers on the wall and tasks Cela with activating them while they deal with the sleeping beast. Sneaking up on the creature, they summon a sword into their hand and attempt to pierce the pebbly, stony flesh. While they're able to injure it, the last thing Zero sees is a massive fist hurtling toward their face when the creature cries out in pain. Trix and Rou arrive to find the beast standing over Eight and Cela. Follow Dax @gmdax, Kappa @TheKappaChris, Sebastian @sebastianyue and Wren @ThornyDryad  EPISODE CREDITS: Produced by DaxOpening theme music, editing and mixing by WrenLogo Artwork design by JessieCharacter Artwork design by RiyuskiSegment music and sound effects licensed through Epidemic SoundLINKS:Be sure to follow and tag Roads Uncharted on Bluesky!

Josh and Emily discuss the fourth chapter of the Financial Counseling textbook, A Systemic Approach to Understanding Diversity in Financial Counseling. Top takeaways: Our systems have a huge impact on us. Your race, sexuality, gender, relationship status, background, socio-economic status, abilities/disabilities, religion etc. all have huge impacts. We come at things believing that what's normal to us is normal to everyone. Anything that creates a superior-inferior, “I know more than you” dynamic needs to be handled VERY carefully.

But as my business has evolved, I realized my podcast needed to evolve with it. So here's the big news: I'm moving from weekly episodes to every other week—and I want to take you behind the scenes on why, what's shifting, and what's coming next that I'm really excited about. Why I resisted this change, and how pulling the trigger was so freeing. How change is inevitable and why it should be embraced vs resisted.

We did a video this time! Watch on YouTube, if you fancy that sort of thing. Longtime friend Jeff is back with a candid conversation about making bold life changes, creative reinvention, and finding fulfillment beyond a job. We dive deep into the journey of leaving a secure government job to pursue a creative career.

In this episode, we're joined by the fearless Ann Whatmore, an adventurer who proves that asthma doesn't have to set limits on what you can achieve. Ann has faced numerous health challenges, but rather than letting them hold her back, she's embraced adventure in a big way.  In May 2024, she cycled over 3,000km across the UK on her recumbent e-trike, “Bob,” completing a solo journey from Land's End to Orkney before speaking at Yestival. This was no easy feat – Ann had only a sixth of her lung function available and had to rely on determination, resourcefulness, and a supportive community to make the journey possible. In this episode, Ann shares how she turned her dream into reality, navigating the ups and downs of planning such a massive adventure. She talks about the emotional and physical struggles of living with asthma, how she managed her condition on the road, and the lessons she learned along the way. Whether you're living with a chronic condition, longing for adventure, or simply looking for inspiration to push through your own barriers, Ann's story is one you won't want to miss.  Tune in to hear how Ann turned her “limitations” into an opportunity for growth and exploration, proving that the only true limits are the ones we place on ourselves.  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patron!

Mid-Year Reset: Strategies to Transform Your Life in Six Months To create your best six months ever, it is essential to start by defining what "best" means for you personally. This involves taking the time to reflect on your desires, aspirations, and what success looks like in your life.

By asking yourself, "If I woke up six months from now and said this was my best season yet, what would have made it so?" you can gain clarity on the specific outcomes and experiences you want to achieve. Tonya reflects on the halfway point of 2025 and encourages listeners to evaluate their feelings about the year so far.
