What if the most magnetic thing you could do for your business is simply be more of who you already are? In this episode, Erin sits down with Rebecca Richardson, known across social media as The Mortgage Mentor: a nationally ranked, award-winning loan originator with over 25 years in the industry, a speaker, a coach, and a soon-to-be author. This conversation will leave you sighing a breath of relief, because Rebecca gives you permission to stop performing someone else's version of success and start building a business around how YOU are wired to think, work, lead, and define success. Rebecca's story begins with a dad who was a real estate attorney, a finance bug caught while working for a financial planner in college, and a pitch to a small Tennessee mortgage broker: "If you'll teach me what it is, I'll work hard and I'll make you money." She fell in love with the problem-solving of the job (in her words, "one big algebra equation combined with a Rubik's Cube") and did everything the industry prescribed: rise and grind, always available, chameleon for every client, 50 calls on Monday morning. It earned her the President's Circle and the Chairman's Club… and by 2018, it earned her a wall. Health issues and personal losses left her with what she calls the honest starting point of her transformation: "I don't have another choice other than choosing to do things differently if I want to stay in this industry." So she changed the game. She shifted from chasing to attracting, went all in on video early (posting on TikTok in 2019 after hearing GaryVee say all small businesses should be there), and learned to trust the voice that said "I might be early, but I'm not wrong." The result? Her business tripled. At her peak she closed 225 units, then turned around and closed 226 the next year, with a licensed assistant and half a processor. And the trade-off wasn't more sacrifice. It was a better life. Listen in as Erin and Rebecca discuss: Growing up around real estate (her dad was a real estate attorney) and the pitch that got her hired at a small Tennessee broker: "teach me, I'll work hard, and I'll make you money" Why the mortgage business is "one big algebra equation combined with a Rubik's Cube," and why she loves the problem-solving and the human connection Doing it the prescribed way until 2018: Brian Tracy tapes, always-on availability, being a chameleon for everyone, and hitting the wall anyway The turning point that wasn't enlightenment: "I don't have another choice" The mindset shift from chasing to attracting, and why attracting requires the willingness to be different Being early on TikTok in 2019, the questions people asked ("are you trying to educate teenagers so they buy from you in 10 years?"), and trusting "I might be early, but I'm not wrong" 225 units, then 226 back-to-back, with an LOA and half a processor, and a better life balance as the trade-off Desperation vs. decisiveness: do we have to break before we have the courage to do something different? Why Rebecca shares the behind-the-scenes, not just the accolades: "I would rather talk about the process, because the process has to be individual" Letting go of "my work was my worth," the insatiable monster of proving yourself through volume The dopamine hit, the "death period," and being willing to be bad so you can get good The efficiency lens on social media: one 5-minute video can reach a room of 300 people The Hustle Olympics, cortisol addiction, and learning how to actually rest Rebecca's pacing tools: a locked loan for every working day of the year, and planning 3 things per day based on real capacity instead of an endless to-do list The Inside Out anxiety character check-in: pause, reflect, and decide instead of pushing until you crash Representation: "Wait, you can do that?" and why seeing other women run business differently changes everything Her upcoming book Rule Breakers and the Built by Design / Business Blueprint archetypes: strategist, visionary, connector, operator, and advocate Erin's reminder: fear is not fact, and fear is not a forecast About Rebecca Richardson, known as The Mortgage Mentor, is a nationally ranked, award-winning loan originator, speaker, and coach with over 25 years in the mortgage industry, recognized by Scotsman Guide, HousingWire, and National Mortgage Professional. She serves as Chief Innovation Officer at Mpire Financial, and after going all in on video in 2019, she built an audience of 175,000+ followers across social platforms that now drives roughly a third of her annual production. Through her Built by Design methodology, Rebecca teaches producers and team leaders how to build a business around how people are wired to think, work, lead, and define success, with hands-on coaching in personal branding, content, and audience building.

Today, we note the fresh pop in US treasury yields to new cycle highs after the Treasury market buyback and Treasury Secretary Bessent's posturing failed to shore up confidence. Elsewhere, it was a rather negative day for risk sentiment on the latest aggravated rise in crude oil prices and that rise in yields, with Europe particularly spooked ahead of today's ECB meeting. We note key equity stories like Apple's (Gen Z targeted?) pricey new foldable phone, Meta's pop on the enthusiasm for its Muse AI agent. Most of all, we queue up what to look for over tomorrow's US CPI release. Today's pod hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy. Links Trump wants cheap hamburger meat ahead of the mid-terms. Matt Stoller covers the story and shows what this may cost him politically with some of his base - and what it may cost those consuming the questionable meat. Yikes.  The FT version of the widely covered resignation of an Anthropic researcher over concerns that the company is not doing enough to enforce safety guardrails and that AI could end humanity as the company and OpenAI are "'gambling' with the future of mankind". Michael Every reposted a news item on X that Germany's Deutsche Bank will be appointed as the clearer and settler of RMB (Chinese yuan) transactions in Europe. Wasn't the EU supposed to be gearing up for a less friendly face to China on concerns it is undermining EU industry with its cheap and subsidized exports? (HT FTAlphaville) A Bruegel long-form piece poking into the factors that are driving the rise in long-term interest rates - it's not just about fiscal profligacy. ProPublica earlier this year looked into how Trump might look to call the mid-term election results into question if they are not favourable for Republicans - a high risk on this front, but how high when the president himself is so unpopular?

In the second episode of Editions, a podcast from Shakespeare and Company and Faber, literary director Adam Biles and Faber Editions curator Ella Griffiths are joined by novelist Megan Nolan to discuss Illusions by Ruth Rehmann, in a new translation by Rob Madole, the latest title in the Faber Editions imprint.First published in Germany in 1959 and lost to English-language readers for decades, the novel follows four employees of a vast West German corporation across a single weekend. Cinematic, fragmented, and seductively modernist, it is at once an intimate and hypnotic portrait of four inner lives and an incisive state-of-the-nation novel about West Germany's postwar "economic miracle" - and the illusions that sustain it.Our conversation covers Rehmann's place in the influential German postwar literary movement Gruppe 47, the novel's debts to and divergences from Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway and James Joyce's Ulysses, the way that the war haunts a generation trying to forget it, the mischievous omniscient window cleaner who watches over the story, and what it means for a woman writer to be faulted, as contemporary reviewers said of Rehmann, for "an excess of contemporaneity."Buy IllusionsUK: https://www.faber.co.uk/product/9780571396580-illusions-faber-editions/Rest of World: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/illusions-faber-editions Megan Nolan's novels Acts of Desperation and Ordinary Human Failings are also available from Shakespeare and Company, and your local independent bookstore.Sign up to Faber's Heritage Subscription, featuring all Faber Editions titles: Subscribers get a book in the post each month for just £9 alongside a curated email with exclusive extra content about the book and its author. https://tr.ee/DsDYp5Books & Authors DiscussedThe Tin Drum — Günter GrassMrs Dalloway — Virginia WoolfUlysses — James JoyceThe Forged Coupon — Leo TolstoyPerfection — Vincenzo LatronicoAmerican Psycho — Bret Easton EllisActs of Desperation — Megan NolanOrdinary Human Failings — Megan NolanFilms/TV Shows DiscussedJeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles — dir.

This is the final of the trilogy of stories Jesus tells to explain the worth of a single soul to God. We had the Parable of the Lost Sheep where the shepherd leaves the 99 to find the 1 who has been lost. We had the Parable of the Lost Coin of the woman who has 10 coins, but when she loses 1 she looks relentlessly until it’s found. Notice the numbers – 1 out of 99 – 1 out of 10 – and now Jesus takes it down to even a more personal and direct number – 1 out of 2 with the Parable of the Lost Son. This is the story we often refer to as the Prodigal son, depending on the translation you’re reading. This story told by Jesus has so many layers and so many life changing truths, we will divide this one into 2 devotionals. Today will be part 1, only covering the first half of the story. Let’s read it together in Luke 15: 11-24: “A man had two sons. The younger son told his father, ‘I want my share of your estate now before you die.' So his father agreed to divide his wealth between his sons. A few days later this younger son packed all his belongings and moved to a distant land, and there he wasted all his money in wild living. About the time his money ran out, a great famine swept over the land, and he began to starve. He persuaded a local farmer to hire him, and the man sent him into his fields to feed the pigs. The young man became so hungry that even the pods he was feeding the pigs looked good to him. But no one gave him anything. When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, ‘At home even the hired servants have food enough to spare, and here I am dying of hunger! I will go home to my father and say, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired servant.' So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.' But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.' So the party began. This is one of my favorite stories in the Bible, and really for many reasons. I’ve been rather open about the 7 year journey with our own prodigal daughter. She walked out of our house at 17 and just never came back. Many times we had no idea where she was or if she was even alive. She made horrible, dangerous choices, and just kept running further and further. The Lord showed me how to wait in hope and faith. He showed me how not to chase her and make things worse. He showed me his faithfulness in the wait. I learned my job was to pray relentlessly for her and always be ready with the welcome home party when she returned. And when our girl finally did return to her family this year, he showed me how he had been allowing my daughter to step into her own testimony of his faithfulness. And yes, we had a party – a wedding party! My prodigal had come home and our relationship continues to grow and flourish every day. It’s truly one of my greatest joys. But this story is also one of my favorites because I realize it’s my own story as well. I am the prodigal. No, I never ran away from my family. No, I’ve never had a wild lifestyle or racked up a bunch of regrets. But gosh have I ever missed out on God’s best by chasing after something else. I am the prodigal. I am the lost one. The Father waited for me to come home and return to his best. Can you see how that’s you too? That’s all of us. The youngest son in Jesus’ story had made a mistake. His mistake was in LOCATION. The provision of his father was in location. He left his father’s house and he struggled fiercely. He ends up living with the pigs, just wishing he could eat the pigs food. But you know what that hunger did – that hunger brought him back home. God lovingly allows us to struggle and suffer when we have chosen to be away from him. He allows hunger because hunger brings us back. Desperation makes us hit our knees. Rock bottom becomes a solid foundation for a turn around. But wow, have you ever noticed that some of us have basements to our rock bottoms? We can go further and further down – further and further away – run harder and harder – make even worse choices with harder consequences … but let me tell you something, THE FATHER IS STILL WAITING FOR OUR RETURN. He’s still waiting for our surrender. He’s still waiting for us to stop running, stop resisting, stop making this worse. The timing of this particular parable is so perfect because just last night I went to a really special service at our church here in Carlsbad, California. Surfers and beach babes basically went to a rodeo at our church. It was the strangest mix of beach people trying to be country. In our church parking lot was a corral surrounded by hay bails and bleachers. In the middle of the corral was a wild horse. Then a legit cowboy enters the corral. Have you heard of this guy? His name is Todd Pierce with Riding High Ministries. In front of a live audience, he trains and rides a wild horse for the first time, all while giving us the most powerful visual of God’s loving patience with us. If you ever get a chance to go see Todd in action, I highly recommend it. I cried through the entire experience. It was one of the most spiritual things I’ve ever witnessed. This horse was 2 years old and up until that week, he had never been touched by a human hand. He had been roped and trailered into California from a ranch in Idaho … and he was NOT happy about it. Todd enters the corral and this horse runs. He wanted absolutely nothing to do with this cowboy. Todd every so slowly works his way closer and closer to the horse as it’s running in circles. He introduces the touch of his rope, then the touch of his hand. Little by little, the horse comes to trust him. But then, the horse would get scared and it would run wild again. Todd explained that this is so often us with God. God begins His work in our lives. He gets closer. He reaches for us. We begin to trust Him. And then something scares us. So we run. But God doesn’t give up. He waits. He tries again. He gets a little closer. And when the horse would refuse his touch, Todd would do something that absolutely broke my heart. He would get down on his knees. He would lower himself beneath the horse and show him tenderness and care. He wasn’t chasing him. He wasn’t forcing him. He was allowing the horse to see that he wasn’t there to hurt him. The horse still had the power to run. And Todd was willing to let him. But as that horse watched this cowboy kneel before him, something began to change. Little by little, he came closer. And closer. And closer. I’m sitting there crying and crying because suddenly I recognized myself. I’m the wild horse. I’m the one resisting. I’m the one who gets scared. I’m the one who doesn’t want to surrender. I’m the one who sometimes runs when God gets too close. And yet…. God waits. God doesn’t stop loving me because I run. He doesn’t abandon me because I resist. He doesn’t force me into surrender. He patiently pursues me. He keeps reaching. He keeps waiting. He keeps inviting me closer. But there was another part of this demonstration that really got me. Todd explained that every horse is different. Some surrender quickly. Some take much longer. Some fight hard. Some even try to hurt him. But ultimately, if a horse refuses to be trained, it loses. Not because the cowboy doesn’t love it. But because the horse cannot become what it was created to be while it remains wild. Think about that. A horse can spend its entire life running wherever it wants, doing whatever it wants, refusing every bit of restraint. That may look like freedom. But it isn’t freedom if it keeps the horse from becoming what it was created to be. A trained horse can do incredible things. It can carry someone into battle. It can help a rancher. It can serve a purpose far greater than simply running wild. But a horse that refuses to surrender to its trainer will never experience that purpose. And I couldn’t stop thinking about how often I do the same thing with God. I want His blessing, but I resist His training. I want His purpose, but I don’t want His process. I want Him to lead me, but I still want to choose the direction. I want the life He has for me, but I don’t always want to surrender the life I have chosen for myself. And maybe that’s the question this parable is asking us: Am I willing to be trained? Because surrender to God isn’t losing my freedom. It’s finally becoming free to be who He created me to be. The wild horse thinks the cowboy is taking something away. But the cowboy knows what the horse doesn’t yet understand: Surrender isn’t the end of the horse’s life. It’s the beginning of its purpose. And maybe that’s what God is saying to you today. You don’t have to run anymore. You don’t have to fight Him. You don’t have to be afraid of what happens when you finally let Him get close. The One asking you to surrender isn’t trying to diminish you. He’s trying to develop you. He’s not trying to take away your purpose. He’s trying to lead you into it. So maybe today isn’t about trying harder. Maybe it’s about stopping. Turning around. And letting the Cowboy come close. Stop running. Stop resisting. Stop fighting the hands that are trying to heal you. Let Him train you. Let Him lead you. Let Him transform you. Because the greatest version of your life isn’t found in running wild. It’s found in surrender. Whether you’re the prodigal running from the Father or the wild horse running from the Cowboy, the invitation is the same—come home. Stop running. Stop resisting. Stop believing that your freedom is found somewhere outside of God’s will. The Father isn’t standing at the end of the road waiting to punish you. He’s watching for you. He’s running toward you. He’s ready to throw His arms around you, put a robe on your shoulders, and celebrate your return. And the Cowboy isn’t trying to break you to ruin you; He’s trying to teach you how to live. He knows what you were created for, even when you don’t. So today, maybe it’s time to stop running and let yourself be found. Stop fighting and let yourself be trained. Stop trying to build your own life and let the One who created you lead you into His. Because surrender isn’t losing the life you wanted. Surrender is finally coming home to the life God created you for.

Jenifer Lockwood became a surgical nurse in Florida, grew up watching her mother struggle with addiction, developed her own health complications that introduced her to prescription pills, and eventually built a scheme at her job calling in fraudulent prescriptions to pharmacies to feed the addiction before law enforcement set her up at a pharmacy and arrested her — producing a 15 year Florida state prison sentence that she served 13 years of before sobriety, a paralegal career built inside those walls, and a complete life transformation gave everything that addiction cost her a completely different second chapter. _____________________________________________ #PrisonStories #PrisonLife #florida #nurse #truecrimestory _____________________________________________ Thank you to HUNGRYROOT, PRIZEPICKS & AG1 for sponsoring this episode: Hungryroot: Explore my Hungryroot Digital Cookbook "The Commissary Upgrade" at https://hungryroot.com/LOCKEDIN _____________________________________________  PrizePicks: Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/IANBICK and use code IANBICK and get $150 if you win your first $5 lineup! _____________________________________________ AG1: For a limited time, save 20% on your first subscription order of AG1 Next Gen or AG1 Pro at https://drinkag1.com/lockedin _____________________________________________ Connect with Jenifer Lockwood: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeniferlockwood_postconviction/ Website:https://postconvictionalliance.org/?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAcGRvZgJleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA85MzY2MTk3NDMzOTI0NTkAAadFH6OUvd0oYsZ49876ZgUNamkrtoguEvoHhTss8b8Eae0YjSpPFNXIEHSGUw_aem_zplLQ5f36CmzUcciKJ03Vw _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick:  https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Surgical Nurse's Journey 00:28 Growing Up in Pensacola 02:22 Discovering Biological Father 05:52 Influence of Medical Family 09:15 Early Marriage and Nursing 12:04 Life as a Surgical Nurse 14:41 Sponsor Break 15:14 Traumatic OR Stories 20:36 Addiction Begins 24:47 Mother's Role in Addiction 27:20 Silent Struggles in Healthcare 30:40 Prescription Ends, Desperation 35:20 Arrested in Pharmacy 38:48 Drug Trafficking Charge 41:02 Pharmacy Verification Process 43:36 Bond and Legal Threats 48:39 Out on Bond, Terminated 50:05 Bond Revoked and Withdrawal 52:27 Firing Lawyer, Public Defender 55:00 County Jail Experience 57:38 Sponsor Break 58:47 Legal Process and Plea Deal 01:03:58 Understanding Gain Time 01:05:18 Marriage and New Relationship 01:09:10 Motherhood from Prison 01:13:26 First Day of Prison 01:19:29 Fitting in at Gatson 01:23:31 Becoming a Law Clerk 01:29:51 Prison Shows and Talents 01:31:04 Types of Cases Helped 01:32:32 Sobriety and Self-Discovery 01:35:35 Using Nursing Skills in Prison 01:38:49 Financial Support Inside 01:39:55 Mother's Sobriety 01:40:06 Questioning Sentencing Length 01:42:50 Refusing Cases and Prejudice 01:48:53 Comparing Sentences 01:50:15 Lessons from Encounters 01:53:42 Approaching Release Date 01:55:59 Release and Reuniting with Kids 02:03:36 Josh's Anger and Healing 02:05:30 Current Work and Advocacy 02:08:13 Feeling the Lost Years 02:09:25 Advice to Past Self _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka

Desperation

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260821dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.” Matthew 15:21-22 Don’t Think You Are Not Welcome This woman had every reason to stay away from Jesus. She was a Canaanite. Jesus was a Jew. For centuries, there had been a separation between Jews and Gentiles. The Canaanites were not part of Israel. They were not heirs of the Old Testament covenant in the same way the Jewish people were. Yet she came anyway. Desperation certainly played a role. Her daughter was suffering terribly. But there was something more. This woman believed that Jesus could help. She even addressed him as “Lord, Son of David,” recognizing him as the promised Messiah. Somehow, she had come to trust that this Jewish teacher was more than a teacher. He was the Savior. What happened next might seem discouraging at first. Jesus initially remained silent. Then he spoke of being sent to the lost sheep of Israel. Yet the woman did not give up. She continued to plead for mercy. She trusted that Jesus’ compassion was greater than the barriers that seemed to stand between them. And she was right. By the end of the account, Jesus praised her faith and granted her request. Her daughter was healed, and the outsider was welcomed. What a beautiful picture of God’s grace toward us. By nature, we too were outsiders. Sin separated us from God. We had no claim upon his favor and no right to stand in his presence. Yet he came to save the world. Through his perfect life, sacrificial death, and glorious resurrection, he opened the door of salvation to all people. Like the Canaanite woman, we approach Jesus empty-handed. We come seeking mercy, not deserving rewards. We come confessing our need, not our worthiness. And like that woman, we discover that Jesus welcomes us. So come to him boldly. The mercy you seek is found in him, and his welcome is greater than you ever expected. Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank you for welcoming me into your family through your saving grace. Amen.

One of horror's most dependable constants are Stephen King adaptations. The latest one takes a book that mixes one of the author's greatest strengths. King is great at mixing grounded scares with supernatural horror. Which is why the team announced to work on Desperation is interesting. Plus, another clever marketing stunt from Neon. We have not discussed the Paramount-WB merger. And for good reason. We do not know enough about it and we kinda don't give a shit. But there is some interesting news to come out of it. Apparently with the rights for A Nightmare on Elm Street all over the place, both studios are scrambling to get a new movie out first. How sweet, fresh meat. Buffet Infinity gets off to one of the strongest starts we have seen for any movie possibly ever. It is clever, funny, creepy, and mysterious. The indie horror is a mix of found footage and sketch comedy that manages to be familiar and unique at the same time. Through the first act, it seemed like we had found something really special. The film then proceeded to take one of the greatest nose dives we have ever seen. It becomes completely derailed and goes from being about two warring restaurants to just a bunch of unexplained nonsense. Nothing makes sense and it is clear that an ending was never penned for this mess. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

Have you ever sat down to create content and felt like you're forcing it because you need people to like it, engage with it, or somehow prove that what you're doing is working?   In this episode, I'm talking about what it really looks like to create content from a place of inspiration instead of desperation. Because when we're constantly giving, serving, and showing up online from an empty place, it doesn't take long before we feel burned out and overwhelmed.   For me, the answer isn't another content strategy—it starts with getting back to God as my source. When I spend time with Him, I'm reminded that I don't have to perform for Him or for people. I can create from a place of overflow, authenticity, and purpose.   In this episode, you'll discover: Why creating content from desperation can leave you feeling exhausted and disconnected How spending intentional time with God can change the way you show up online Why social media can become a place to serve others instead of simply promoting yourself How hearing God's voice can help you discover your own voice, gifts, and passions What it means to create from a sustainable place instead of constantly running on empty How to stop performing and start creating from a place of freedom and authenticity   If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or drained by content creation, I hope this episode reminds you that God is your source—not social media, likes, or algorithms.   Take a listen, and then ask yourself: Am I creating from inspiration or desperation?   Want more free resources to help you grow your business and overcome what's holding you back?

This one started as a love letter to a friend going through a hard time.Real desperation is doing something purely out of need. Stealing food because you're starving. Jumping from a burning building because staying is worse. That's a desperate act — a risky choice made in an actual crisis.Most of us aren't there. We just feel like we are.And that's the problem. Desperation distorts your thinking when you're not actually in a desperate situation. It quietly rewrites the rules of your business and convinces you those rules were always true.You start building what you think people will buy instead of what you're great at. You decide the market is fixed. That it has to look corporate. That people won't pay for that. That you couldn't possibly charge for this.None of that is fact. Most of it is inherited.In this episode, I'm breaking down where those rules actually come from — and how to get out from under them.We talk about:The difference between a genuinely desperate situation and the feeling of desperation, and why confusing the two costs you moneyFactoids: unverified information that becomes accepted as fact because it gets repeated often enoughHow conformity turns "everyone says this" into a truism you never think to questionThe conventional wisdom you inherited about what sells, who buys, and what you're allowed to charge forThe 4 steps back to inspiration: noticing what you don't like and distancing yourself from it, noticing what you're naturally great at, giving yourself permission to lead with that, and getting good at selling itAnd that last step is where most people stall. Because being great at something and being able to talk about its value are two different skills — and only one of them ever got taught to you.If you've been quietly shrinking your offer to match what you assume the market wants, this is the episode to bookmark and come back to.Because you might not have a market problem. You might not have a pricing problem. You might be building from desperation and calling it strategy.Ready to build from inspiration instead?

The battle over the Likud Party primaries this week was a clear example of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asserting his dominance over his political kingdom, Haaretz senior analyst Esther Solomon told the Haaretz Election Podcast. Netanyahu had unsuccessfully tried to cancel the always robust Likud primaries altogether – ultimately compromising by pushing through a measure where he chose the candidates for nine key spots on the top of the list. He included a spot for Oren Dobronsky, an Israeli high-tech entrepreneur and hummus chain owner in Silicon Valley who has not lived in Israel for years, has no political experience and made headlines recently for calling U.S. President Donald Trump a “morally corrupt piece of shit” in the recent past. The prime minister’s message was clear, Solomon said: "This is no longer about the Likud party. This is about me." Solomon joined Haaretz correspondent Judy Maltz and host Allison Kaplan Sommer to discuss the top stories from the last week week, which included controversy over efforts by expat Israelis to travel en masse to vote to replace the current government, and a proposal by opposition frontrunner Gadi Eisenkot to form a minority government even if he doesn’t have a decisive election victory. Also on the podcast, Maltz described her encounters as she travels across Israeli cities to take their pulse ahead of the election, including Kfar Chabad, where, she quipped “only the Messiah is more popular” than far-right extremist Internal Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and the Arab city of Umm-al-Fahm, where she said it was “very sad” that many young well-educated Palestinian citizens of Israel said they were so alienated that they were not planning to vote.

Coming up we'll talk all things Knoxville Nationals as Hard Knox Friday looms for everyone not already locked into the feature or Saturday B-Main. I want to dive into the Ryan Timms situation, and we'll explain what happened during the chaos, and why we saw a crew member faceplant live on DIRTVision.

Kathleen Janson was the life of the party, but it was all a facade - chasing acceptance through alcohol, drugs, and sex. Then a miraculous thing happened, Jesus met her with love and grace, offering her freedom and a whole new life. Today, Kathleen and her husband are the parents of two children adopted through the foster care system. She is the author of The Gift of Desperation: The True Story of God's Grace Alive in a Life and the president of The One Child, whose mission is to eradicate the foster care system, one foster family at a time. There are 8,000 foster care children in Tennessee, and only 4,000 foster families stepping up. However, if one family from each of the churches in Tennessee said yes to a child, the foster care system would be eradicated. Kathleen is laser-focused on making this happen through educating and equipping the body of Christ. TAKEAWAYS Kathleen's organization focuses specifically on equipping local churches to get involved with foster care The One Child's plan consists of several phases and includes addressing the real problem of kids who age out of the system Kids who are in the juvenile detention center are there because of past trauma The solution for helping foster youth?

Ryan talks with National Correspondent Rory O'Neill about mounting global diesel shortages, how farmers and trucking companies are being affected, and why higher fuel costs are being passed on to consumers.

“If we ever lose Saipan, repeated air attacks on Tokyo will follow. No matter what it takes, we have to hold there.”As Operation Cartwheel neutralizes Japanese forces on Rabaul, American and British leaders meet with “Forgotten Allies” in Cairo—namely China's nationalist leader Chiang Kai Shek and his diplomat wife Soong Mei-ling. The relentless pressure on Japan continues as heroes like “Merrill's Marauders" hack through Burma's jungles, securing vital supply lines and isolating the Japanese. Desperation leads to more bonsai attacks and even civilian suicides. More islands fall. The conflict reaches a boiling point at the "Marianas Turkey Shoot," and the brutal battle for Saipan, both of which aim to place Tokyo within bombing range and clear the path for Doug to return to the Philippines.____Connect with us on HTDSpodcast.com andgo deep into episode bibliographies and book recommendationsjoin discussions in our Facebook communityget news and discounts from The HTDS Gazette come see a live showget HTDS merchor become an HTDS premium member for episodes and other perks.HTDS is part of Audacy media network.

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.Tom Holland's fourth outing as Peter Parker/Spider-Man opened to a massively successful box office, shattering the domestic opening record previously held by Avengers: Endgame, and raking in nearly $1 billion globally in its first weekend alone - so while it beat Endgame's North American opening take, it comes in just behind it globally. Not a bad start for Disney and Marvel Studios as the conversation around superhero movies ebbs and flows in the zeitgeist. Those numbers exclude the premium IMAX format, as Spidey couldn't web up those screens due to The Odyssey still holding all IMAX screens.While Marvel is on their Spidey high, other headlines have circled the news this week - some good and some disappointing. On a positive note - Samara Weaving has reportedly been cast as Emma Frost. Horror fans will recognize Weaving from the Ready or Not films. Obsession breakout star Inde Navarette confirmed her meeting with Jake Schreier and she mentioned interest in playing Mystique. And for the bad news, Wonder Man will not get a season two after all - even though it was confirmed earlier this year - and both Kevin Feige and Maershala Ali expressed regret about the Blade film; with Feige admitting he feels like a failure for not getting it off the ground and Ali saying he's done with the project. Last week, DC Studios and HBO's Booster Gold series writer David Jenkins said that the project is no longer moving forward. Shortly after he made this statement, IGN reported that the series will, in fact, be moving forward, but with a new creative team. The New York Times reported that Barbie 2 is currently stalled, with Warner Bros. struggling to come to terms with lead talent Greta Gerwig, Margot Robbie, and Ryan Gosling. The studio has until December to reach a deal before the right revert back to Mattel. Stephen King's 1996 novel Desperation is getting a film adaptation from Final Destination: Bloodlines directing duo Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein. Sam Raimi will also produce the feature, his first time working with King. Sony Pictures has released the first trailer for Jumanji: Open World, which opens in theaters on December 25. The film returns franchise stars Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart and Karen Gillan. Amazon MGM Studios is developing a Warhammer 40k animated event series alongside the upcoming live-action version, sources close to the project confirmed to Deadline. Additionally, Henry Cavill, who is set to star, is also on board to be an executive producer.Dave Bautista is in talks to take on the lead role of Kratos in Prime Video's God of War series, replacing Ryan Hurst, who had to drop out of production after he sustained an on set stunt injury. Mary Holland, Star of Ghosts and The Little House on the Prairie, has been cast in a lead role as Sandra in the upcoming DC Studios and HBO Max Superman spin off series that centers on Jimmy Olsen. In a recent interview with Inverse, Jessica Henwick revealed that she declined an offer to reprise her role as Colleen Wing in Daredevil: Born Again season three because she wants to protect the character's perfect ending in Netflix's Iron Fist.

Desperation has a way of convincing us that we have no time, no options, and no way out, but that's rarely the truth! In Episode 604, we talk about how desperation clouds our judgment, stomps out our intuition, lowers our standards, steals our abundance mindset, and pulls us away from faith in the name of instant gratification. Join me for the next 25 minutes as we unpack why desperation is a terrible life partner, and how choosing pausing for clarity over pressure and urgency can change the trajectory of your life.FILL OUT THE PODCAST SURVEY HERE: https://forms.gle/adxbnMAeejfApM1T7Join my email list: spiritualhomegirl.ck.page/emailSubscribe to Spiritual Homegirl's YouTube here: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UClfzaF9Vr-xEPh9WBaEBhww?sub_confirmation=1Follow me on IG: https://www.instagram.com/spiritualhomegirl/Follow Make Peace With the Day: https://instagram.com/makepeacewiththedayCheck me out on Facebook: https://m.facebook.com/SpiritualHomegirl/Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Melik Kaylan and Gordon Chang. Melik Kaylan suggests Putin is increasingly isolated, facing potential threats from his own Praetorian guards as domestic desperation grows. However, the dismissal of Ukraine's popular defense minister, Mykhailo Fedorov, may have inadvertently delayed Putin's demise. Fedorov, credited with turning the tide of war through digital innovation and anti-corruption audits, was sacked following infighting with "Old Guard" military leadership, sparking protests in Kyiv.

Rachel Maddow notes that Donald Trump's news cycle seems to be stuck in a loop with the same basic headlines repeating, but with each cycle Trump becomes more desperate to achieve his ends, and more reckless in his efforts as his opposition gets stronger and wiser to his schemes. Rachel Maddow explains the New York Times' reporting about Donald Trump's new Qatari plane missing some key defensive security features, and Trump's apoplexy over the idea that the Times report was bolstered by sources leaking information. Renowned First Amendment attorney Theodore J. Boutrous Jr. joins Rachel to discuss Trump's demand that the New York Times reveal its sources. Thomas Hicks, former commissioner with the Election Assistance Commission, talks with Rachel Maddow about the security of U.S. elections in the face of Donald Trump's open attacks. Rachel Maddow tells the story of Turkey, the host nation for this year's NATO summit, including a handgun and live ammunition in the parting goodie bag for NATO leaders without informing them they were carrying the weapon. Several of the leaders found ways to dispose of the gun. The White House did not respond to a query about whether Donald Trump also received a gun. Want more of Rachel?
