What if the real crisis isn't aging leaders, but an aging democracy where power never seems to change hands? Read More: www.WhoWhatWhy.org

It's easy to assume generosity will grow over time. We tell ourselves we'll give more after we earn more, save more, pay off debt, or reach a certain level of financial security. But what if waiting causes us to miss something God wants to do today? That's the question Cody Hobelmann invites us to consider. Cody is a Certified Financial Planner, a Certified Kingdom Advisor® (CKA®), and co-founder of the Finish Line Pledge with his brother, Keelan. He also contributed to FaithFi's new field guide, How Much Money Is Enough?—a resource designed to help believers think biblically about setting financial finish lines. For Cody, this isn't merely a financial planning concept. It's personal. Early in his stewardship journey, he believed the best way to serve the Kingdom was to accumulate substantial wealth and give generously later. But over time, God began to reshape that perspective. “I started to wonder,” Cody shared, “what am I missing by not giving more today?” That question gets to the heart of biblical generosity. Giving is not only about transferring money to a worthy cause. It is also about joy, spiritual formation, trust, and eternal impact. The Joy of Giving Now Acts 20:35 says, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” For some believers, generosity begins with the heart. They discover that giving produces a joy that spending and saving cannot replicate. When we give, we step into something larger than ourselves. We participate in the needs, stories, and mission of others. That joy can become contagious. As Cody explained, generosity often draws us into relationships with people and organizations doing meaningful work. We begin to see the impact of our gifts. We share in the purpose of the ministry. We become part of a story God is writing through His people. And the more we experience that joy, the harder it becomes to put generosity off until later. Giving now also allows us to encourage others. Stories of generosity can awaken generosity in someone else. Cody noted that hearing the stories of radically generous givers helped challenge his own assumptions. In the same way, our generosity can become an invitation for others to ask, “What are they experiencing that I'm missing?” Generosity doesn't just meet needs. It multiplies. Generosity as Spiritual Formation Other givers are motivated by what Cody describes as the “soul” dimension of giving. For them, generosity is part of spiritual formation. Giving requires trust. It asks us to surrender something we may feel we have earned, controlled, or secured for ourselves. That first step can be the hardest, because it often exposes what we really believe about God's provision. But like a muscle, generosity grows stronger with practice. At first, giving may feel difficult or like a sacrifice. But as we give consistently, we learn to listen for the Lord's leading and respond with obedience. Over time, generosity becomes less about fearfully letting go and more about joyfully participating in God's work. This is one reason giving now matters. Delayed generosity may preserve our resources, but it can also delay the work God wants to do in our hearts. Through generosity, God loosens our grip on money. He shifts our identity away from what we have, what we earn, or what we can control, and roots it more deeply in Him. Accumulation may give the illusion of safety, but generosity teaches us dependence. Giving becomes a way of saying, “Lord, these resources belong to You. What would You have me do with them?” That kind of prayerful surrender draws us closer to God in a way accumulation never can. The Wisdom of Strategic Giving Generosity is not only emotional or formative. It can also be strategic. Some believers think carefully about impact. They want to steward resources wisely, evaluate outcomes, and give in ways that bear fruit. Cody calls this the “head” dimension of giving. From that perspective, giving now has a practical advantage: it gives us experience. When we give today, we can see what happens. We can learn which ministries are bearing fruit, which need to align with our calling, and where future gifts might have the greatest impact. Cody compares it to planting seeds. Year after year, we learn where the harvest is growing and where to sow next. This kind of giving is not impulsive. It is thoughtful, prayerful, and engaged. Financial planners often talk about the power of compound interest. But Cody points to something even greater: compound impact. A dollar invested may grow over time, but a gift given today may change a life today. And God can do far more with our obedience than we can calculate on a spreadsheet. That doesn't mean every dollar should be given away immediately or that planning for the future is unwise. Scripture commends wisdom, provision, and prudent planning. But it does mean we should be careful not to assume that “later” is always the more faithful option. Sometimes waiting to give can mean delaying the impact God intended for today. Don't Hold Too Tightly Jesus warns in Matthew 6:19-21, “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal... For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Earthly resources are temporary. Markets change. Circumstances change. Needs arise. Life is uncertain. Even when we intend to give later, we are not guaranteed we will have the opportunity. That reality is not meant to create fear. It is meant to cultivate a sense of faithful urgency. As Ron Blue has often said, “Do your giving while you're living, so you're knowing where it's going.” There is wisdom in being able to see, participate in, and learn from the impact of generosity while we are still here. Giving now turns temporary resources into lasting Kingdom impact. How Finish Lines Help Us Give Freely One practical way to accelerate generosity is by setting financial finish lines. A lifestyle finish line changes the question from “How much should I give?” to “How much should I keep?” Once we prayerfully define enough for our lifestyle, we are free to ask what God would have us do with the resources beyond that point. A lifetime finish line works similarly. It helps us consider how much is appropriate to accumulate over the course of our lives. When we know what is enough, we can begin dreaming with God about how to deploy His resources for His purposes. Finish lines are not about legalism. They are about freedom. They help us resist the endless pull of accumulation and open our hands to the joy, adventure, and impact of generosity. Take One Step This Week For the person waiting for the “right time” to become more generous, the encouragement is simple: start now. That step does not have to be dramatic. It may be small. It may be quiet. It may be a first act of obedience that stretches your faith just enough to remind you that God can be trusted. But don't wait to be generous. Giving shapes your heart. It deepens your faith. It strengthens your trust in God. And it multiplies Kingdom impact in ways delayed generosity never can. The question is not merely, “How much can I give someday?” The better question may be, “Lord, what would You have me do today?” On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: Scripture calls men to provide for their families, but what does that look like today? Is there a minimum income a man should aim for to support a family, and what kind of financial goal or ambition should we encourage young men to pursue? I'm praying about how to advise a friend with over $40,000 in debt. He has small investments and a small business, but the business is declining, and he feels overwhelmed. Would a Christian credit counselor be the right next step?

ByteDance just unveiled Seedance 2.5, a new state-of-the-art AI video model with 30-second one-shot generations, as American AI stalls out and Fable 5 stays down. This week on AI For Humans, China is not just catching up in AI, it is pushing the edge. We break down everything Seedance 2.5 can do and why a 30-second single-pass clip is a real leap, then dig into the American slowdown as Fable 5 stays unusable and the rumor mill points to a big delay week. Plus Theo Von's surprisingly intense anti-datacenter rant, OpenAI's claim that China is behind the anti-datacenter conversation, Meta leaking private employee data across the entire company, and Google teaming with A24 on a 75 million dollar AI filmmaking partnership. We close with AI that actually works, including how Gavin used beehiiv's MCP to build a newsletter survey and Kevin's homemade language-learning app. CHINA IS COOKING. AMERICA IS LOADING.

People pilfering crucial bits of rail infrastructure are causing major headaches for KiwiRail with disruptions to Wellington freight and commuter services. Signals, cables and overhead lines have all been stolen. During April, services on the Hutt Valley line had to be cancelled several times and dozens of services delays because of stolen equipment. KiwiRail Chief Metros Officer David Gordon spoke to Lisa Owen.

Jon Herold comes in Monday one day from Deadwood and GART, which means the show is lighter on prep and heavier on honesty. Reuters confirmed what Jon's source already told him: the White House has been sitting on the ODNI voting machine vulnerability report for months over concerns it could undermine voter confidence, and Jon asks the obvious question about what a limited hangout looks like if the report just says the machines need a software update. His source still says the election declass is on track for Wednesday. The White House and Department of War CTO both posted quantum computing content that the decoder community immediately lost its mind over, and Jon delivers a calm and mildly exasperated explanation of why a social media intern trolling is not a Q signal. Iran negotiations are in their now-familiar pattern: JD Vance says Iran agreed to UN nuclear inspectors and the US issued a 60-day oil waiver, Iran immediately denied making new commitments, and Jon sees both sides possibly contradicting each other on purpose to keep everyone confused. DHS is tying federal grants to election reforms including paper ballots and mandatory audits. The Biden audio tapes have been cleared for release. Keir Starmer resigned as UK prime minister. Colombia's president is claiming Israeli election software stole his election. Jon is not packed yet.

Find me on Substack!This is a summer classic — a re-release of an enhanced audio episode that originally aired in 2023, now among the most listened-to Talking Billions episodes of all time. If you missed it, this is your moment. If you've heard it before, welcome back.Over the years, I've had the pleasure of spending time with Byron Tully beyond this microphone — in person at a Parisian café, and on Zoom — and he joined the show a second time as well. His writing continues to find new readers around the world, and for good reason.Byron Tully is the author of The Old Money Book — with over 700 five-star reviews on Amazon — a grandson of a newspaper publisher, son of an oil industry executive, and a Paris-based writer who has spent a decade translating the time-tested values of America's wealth-preserving upper class into an accessible, practical guide for anyone willing to embrace them. https://theoldmoneybook.com/3:00 — Byron shares his upbringing outside Houston, TX: comfortable, only child, grandfather in newspapers, father in oil. Grandfather's early advice: "You're gonna have to learn how to manage your behavior."5:30 — Byron meets his wife from Boston; gets "neck deep" in old money culture — three-plus generations of wealth, manners, education, and core values.8:00 — The 2008 financial crisis revelation: L.A. friends who "looked rich" — Beamers, McMansions — lost everything. Boston friends? Unaffected. Flash vs. substance. His wife tells him to stop complaining and write the book.12:00 — Key insight: you don't need money to adopt old money values. The irony — follow the values and you'll start accumulating money because you stop chasing the next product. "The real awakening is to see money as an option-generating... freedom to choose."18:00 — On conspicuous consumption: old money views extravagance as "the fear of poverty." The question to ask — who are you dressing for? "Maybe nobody. Maybe I'll just dress discreetly and appropriately."24:00 — Sudden wealth and inheritance: Byron's personal experience with four inheritances. His advice: blow 1% first to purge the urge to consume, then ask how this windfall can change your life with purpose.34:00 — Old money values unpacked: health, education, politeness, modesty, financial independence, work ethic. "You can't borrow money and say I'll pay you back with time. You just can't."40:00 — Delayed gratification and long-term thinking: Amazon Prime erodes patience; the most precious things in life take time and "cannot be taken away from you."47:00 — Honoring inherited wealth: Byron reflects on his father working past 10pm. "It's the love that my parents had for me." Why can't he waste it?52:00 — On time: "Tomorrow is a promissory note, and yesterday's a canceled check." Social media is the enemy of time. Walking through Paris, looking at your phone — "What are you doing?"57:00 — Definition of success: being of service. Parents giving The Old Money Book to the groomsmen. "That's success to me."Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC. All statements and opinions expressed are based upon information considered reliable although it should not be relied upon as such.

June 20, 2026; 7am: This morning, Israeli air strikes in southern Lebanon killed at least five people, according to Lebanese state media, just hours after a ceasefire took effect between Israel and Hezbollah. It comes a day after that conflict delayed an expected first day of talks to reach a final peace deal between the United States and Iran.

It's our "Mandalorian & Grogu" special episode where Christian Bladt is joined by fan-favorites Eric Conner and Adam "Hughezy" / "The H Man" Hughes to discuss the latest offering from the Star Wars universe, which is the big-screen debut of our friends Din Jarron, The Mandalorian, and his young ward Grogu. This episode was long-delayed for our audio-only audience, because there had been an expectation of recording a second part to this episode with some other friends of the show, but, said friends ended up not seeing it. So, the lesson learned: don't be afraid to do three episodes on the same movie. Don't hold back for fear of clogging up feeds with repetition... especially since that's what we've been doing for almost 14 years over here on the Bladtcast.

The deal to end the war with Iran is already looking shaky, with Vice President Vance delaying his trip to Switzerland to start negotiations and Israel still bombing Lebanon even though the deal says that has to stop. Vance is supposed to lead difficult negotiations with Iran, but he has limited diplomatic experience with a 60 days goal of going through a long list of tough issues still left to settle. And the Obama Presidential Center opens to the public in Chicago today, where Obama used the dedication to tell people not to miss the past, but to remember what is still possible.Want more analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun? Subscribe to the Up First newsletter.Today's episode of Up First was edited by Kate Bartlett, Dana Farrington, Megan Pratz, Mohamad ElBardicy, and Lindsay Totty.It was produced by Ziad Buchh and Ava Pukatch.Our director is Christopher Thomas.We get engineering support from Simon-Laslo Janssen.

In today's episode of Trending Middle East, negotiations to turn this week's US-Iran agreement into a lasting peace deal are delayed after Swiss officials announce talks at the Burgenstock resort will not take place as scheduled. The initial agreement remains in force as negotiators work towards resolving the remaining issues. We also look at growing tensions in Palestine after Israel announces new measures affecting planning authority in Hebron, while church leaders accuse Israeli authorities of seizing land in East Jerusalem. The US imposes new sanctions on senior Hezbollah figures and financial networks across Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Oman, saying the group must be cut off from its funding sources to support Lebanon's long-term stability. In the UAE, the Cabinet announces a nationwide ban on social media use for children under the age of 15, with age verification requirements and stronger online safety measures to take effect after a one-year transition period. And the UAE introduces a 30-day visa grace period for people unable to leave because of the Iran conflict, allowing eligible visitors and residents to confirm their status or depart without facing overstay fines.

Send us Fan MailHave you ever found yourself wondering if anything is ever going to change?You've prayed.You've believed.You've done all the things you know to do.You thought God even promised...And yet the situation still feels stuck.In this episode, I want to encourage you with a simple truth:There is a day it turns.Recently, my mom experienced something that reminded me of this. For nearly two years she struggled with debilitating side effects after a major medical event. She sought help. She followed instructions. She did everything she knew to do.And then one day, she made another phone call.That phone call led to a new conversation, a new perspective, and ultimately a new path forward.It reminded me that sometimes breakthrough doesn't come because we quit. Breakthrough comes because we stayed faithful long enough to see the next opportunity.I've seen this in my own life too.I've struggled with physical pain that seemed like it would never end.I've faced situations that felt delayed.I've believed for things that took much longer than I thought they would.But over and over again I've discovered the same thing:If you stay in the game, there is a day when the season shifts.In this episode, I talk about:Why patient endurance produces victoryHow to build faith when you're waitingThe importance of rehearsing God's faithfulnessWhy faith is the currency of the KingdomHow to stay encouraged when breakthrough feels delayedWhy consistency matters more than intensityMost people quit too soon.They stop praying.They stop believing.They stop moving.But God works with movement.Faith requires action.So if you're in a season where you're tired, discouraged, or wondering if anything is ever going to change, I want to remind you:There is an end.Your expectation will not be cut off.Your season will shift.Stay faithful.Stay consistent.Stay in the game.Because one day you'll look back and realize the breakthrough was already on its way.You truly are more!Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study!

St Tammany Parish Director of Public Information Michael Vinsinau says there's still plenty to be concerned about across the parish and particularly in the Slidell area as Post Tropical Storm Arthur scoots out of town

On this week's episode of Sense by Meg Faure, Meg sits down with Dr. Nellie Balfour - a paediatrician who is 35 weeks pregnant with her second child - to talk through everything you need to know about what happens the moment your baby is born. This is episode three of their real-time pregnancy series, and it's one of the most practical and reassuring conversations the show has produced.Dr. Nellie is having an elective C-section at 38 weeks. She's packed the bag, she's thought through the birth plan, and she brings both her medical knowledge and her personal experience as a second-time mum to every part of this conversation.Sensory Personalities-Who Is This Baby?Meg and Nellie open with the question every third-trimester parent is really asking: who is this little person? Nellie's baby has been doing somersaults all pregnancy, and Meg explains what that might mean in terms of sensory personality. She walks through the four sensory types - settled, slow to warm up, social butterfly, and sensitive - and what each means for how you parent in those early months.The Hospital Bag -What You Actually NeedNellie unpacks her hospital bag in detail. For a C-section specifically, the focus shifts almost entirely to postnatal comfort rather than labour preparation. Her list covers maternity essentials from the Carrywell range, a front-button nightie over pyjama pants (the elastic irritates the scar), breast pads for when the milk arrives on day two or three, a breastfeeding pillow, flip flops for the shared shower, and the one item people consistently forget: a phone charger.She also covers the baby bag: two nappy sizes because estimated weights from ultrasounds aren't always accurate, unscented wipes, cotton wool with surgical spirits for the umbilical stump, swaddles, beanies, and a dummy. Delayed Cord Clamping, First Baths, and the Delivery RoomNellie explains delayed cord clamping in plain terms: by waiting 30 to 60 seconds before clamping, blood transfers from mum to baby, reducing the risk of anaemia and jaundice. It happens in elective C-sections and, where safe, in emergency sections too.Then Meg asks Nellie to step fully into her paediatrician role and describe exactly what happens the moment your baby is born - what she's looking for when baby is passed to her in the delivery room. Nellie walks through the full newborn check: why a cry matters (it confirms oxygen is moving through the lungs), why blue skin is normal at first, what a floppy baby signals, and how the head-to-toe examination works. Clear, calm, and genuinely demystifying.This episode won't change what happens in your delivery room, but it will mean you understand it. That's worth a lot. About Today's GuestDr. Nellie Balfour is a paediatrician currently 35 weeks pregnant with her second child. She has been documenting her pregnancy journey in real time on the Sense by Meg Faure podcast across three episodes - first trimester, second trimester, and now the third.

In this episode, we look at Genesis 15:1-21 and the tension many believers feel: How do we trust God who promises, but has not yet delivered?   When our circumstances seem to contradict what God has said, waiting can feel confusing, painful, and discouraging. But Genesis 15 reminds us that God is not afraid of our questions. He invites us to look to Him in the delay, trust His timing, and rest in the certainty of His promises.   Support the work of Rejoice Marriage Ministries     Download the episode transcription here   Follow on Instagram - @rejoicemarriageministries   Follow on Facebook - @rejoicemarriageministries   Every day, you can receive encouragement straight to your inbox through our Fight for Your Marriage Devotional and find free resources and prayers to pray over your marriage.

On today's Daily Detroit, we start with big news for Detroit City FC fans and the future of Corktown. Jer and Norris recap their visit to the new Detroit City FC welcome center on Vernor and break down fresh details on AlumiFi Field, the club's planned new stadium next to Michigan Central. The opening date has officially slid to the 2028 season, and the guys explain why that's actually a smarter move given the complexity of the build, site cleanup, and surrounding development. They get into the latest renderings, from 14 traditional suites, 10 container suites, and pitch‑side boxes, to supporter sections staying proudly at midfield and design touches that lean into DCFC's identity and Detroit's skyline. Then, it's a look at a shifting nightlife landscape. The closure of UFO Bar's current concept in Corktown, the announced end of Spot Lite on the east side, and the original Fowling Warehouse in Hamtramck all spark a conversation about drinking habits, the economics of bars and clubs, and whether Detroit needs to "rewrite the contract" for going out. That leads into a bigger question: Should Detroit have a 24‑hour party district, and if so, where would it go?  Finally, we get into the CPA Building at Michigan and 14th hitting the market for $2.4 million, and what a smart redevelopment across from Michigan Central could look like.

We're working hard to find a path forward to preserve our users' privacy and security."Digital Markets Act May 2023- among other things, requires interoperability for gatekeeper platformsApple requested an exemption to the DMA for Siri AI and did not get it.Apple claims complying with the DMA would "give any AI system nearly unlimited access to a user's device, as well as the ability to act on that access autonomously without a user's ongoing visibility and control. That includes the ability to read and send messages, make purchases, access files, and execute actions across any app.""Apple designed a solution called Trusted System Agent — an intermediary that would allow virtual assistants to safely access the same features and capabilities as Siri AI for devices in the EU. Apple also shared a plan to launch Siri AI in the EU while gradually rolling out this new solution over an 18-month period." The EU digital affairs spokesman Thomas Regnier said: "Apple was simply unable to develop interoperability solutions that meet essential EU privacy and security standards." He wrote on LinkedIn, "But instead of offering a compliant solution, Apple asked to be exempted from its interoperability.”Patrick is here to help us understand the context of the DMA and what it is meant to achieve.

The Fork In Your Ear Ep#215 Eternia of Games! - Podcast Show Notes Summary 6-13-26 Gaming News – Oops All Games Edition! Tim and Nate kick off with an "oops all games" episode packed wall-to-wall with fresh showcases. They open with the Xbox Games Showcase (June 7). Tim watched with Jessica while making breakfast; Nate and Cara ran it live in the Discord. Key highlights: Gears of War: E-Day (Oct 6, Xbox Series X/S, PC, Game Pass day one, Unreal Engine 5 built from the ground up by The Coalition). The prequel Emergence Day story stars Marcus and Dom. The Coalition's deep Unreal expertise and "from-scratch" approach have everyone hyped for performance and visuals. Tim and Nate debate third-person cover shooters (Nate's not a fan of the mechanic; Tim loves the destroyed world, underground critters, and chainsaw guns). Fable – New cinematic trailer confirms Haley Atwell (Agent Carter) as the long-teased villain Isabel. Jack of Blades gets a surprise tease, hinting at multiple villains. A 30-minute full gameplay video dropped days later showing a talking pig quest, romance options, UI, and systems in action. Delayed to February 23, 2027 (Xbox, PC, Game Pass, and still coming to PS5) to polish and avoid GTA 6. Tim is very excited; Nate is cautiously optimistic but holding judgment on open-world RPG scope. Halo: Campaign Evolved (July 28, Xbox, PC, PS5, Game Pass) – UE5 remake of Halo 1 with core Blam engine (physics/game logic pulled from Halo: Reach) for that authentic "spongy" feel. New Sergeant Johnson voice actor, prequel missions (Assault on the Control Room & Silent Cartographer) locked behind the main campaign, vehicle jacking, new weapons (energy sword, fuel rod, brute spiker), sprint, clambering, 40+ skulls, and a "Remix Mode" for wild enemy swaps/randomization. 4-player co-op (local split-screen + online). Previews are extremely positive; limited collector's editions sold out fast. Tim is all-in on the respectful-yet-improved remake treatment and wants to share it with new players. Other Xbox news: Persona 6 trailer reactions (mixed/underwhelmed), new Spyro game from Toys for Bob (Tom Kenny returning as Spyro, Dragonflight mechanics), Clockwork Revolution (InXile steampunk RPG, Xbox ecosystem exclusive vibes), S.T.A.L.K.E.R.-era title getting Unreal Engine help from The Coalition + Grounded-style cross-world system, new dark Metro game from the Ukrainian team (still developing in wartime conditions), Resonance (Plague Tale legacy?), Minecraft Dungeons 2, new Senua Hellblade-universe action game (Nate loved the first, mixed on the second; Tim was never a fan but this one looks more classic Ninja Theory), Crazy Taxi World Tour (2027, pure arcade nostalgia), and Castlevania: Belmont's Curse (Oct 15 – Tim is already hooked into his veins; Switch 2 version delayed, which upsets him).

What if you could sit down with someone who's spent over 50 years investing, building wealth, making mistakes, and getting it right… and ask them what they wish they'd known about money from day one?   Most people think building wealth is about finding the right investment or timing the market perfectly.   But after more than 50 years of investing, I can tell you that's not what really makes the difference.   The biggest financial mistakes I've seen – including some of my own – didn't come from bad markets. They came from misunderstandings about money itself.   In today's show, leading property tax expert Ken Raiss and I discuss the differences between long-term investing and speculation, and we analyse practical tips for property investment and asset management, focusing on quality assets and ownership structures.   Join us as we provide insights to help you make informed business and investment decisions in the face of market uncertainty.     Takeaways  Mindset is crucial for wealth creation. Delayed gratification leads to long-term success. Cash flow Buffer reduce investment risk. Strategic planning trumps luck. Fundamentals outweigh chasing hotspots.

Delayed decisions have a cost in business. While thoughtful decision-making is important, there comes a point where overthinking, second-guessing, and waiting for the "perfect" answer can keep women entrepreneurs stuck. In today's episode, we're talking about the role that confidence, intuition, and decisive action play in building a successful business. As business owners, we are faced with countless decisions every week, and many of them come without guarantees. Whether it's launching an offer, investing in growth, changing direction, or pursuing a new opportunity, waiting too long can often be more costly than making an imperfect decision. This episode explores the balance between wisdom and action, and why trusting yourself is a skill every entrepreneur must develop. I also share a personal story about recently purchasing my first fix-and-flip property. In a competitive situation, there wasn't time to endlessly analyze every possible outcome. Trusting my experience, following my instincts, and making a timely decision ultimately led to securing the winning bid. If you've been holding back on a move you know you need to make in your business, this conversation will challenge you to stop waiting and start moving forward with confidence.

She built the business. Now she's fighting to stop it from taking over her life. Jillian is one of only five female master plumbers in Texas, a working master plumber, business owner, wife, and mother who grew her plumbing company from a single-desk operation into a multi-truck, full-service business. Gas, sewer, water, emergencies, her team can handle it all. But growth came with a cost. Missed calls. Delayed responses. Too many tabs open. Too many fires to put out. Customers were slipping through the cracks, and the pressure was following her home. The truth? Jillian didn't have a demand problem, she had a systems problem.
