If you didn't have a visceral reaction to the title for this episode, then you are almost certainly not in our target audience. There are few more certain ways to get a room full of analytics folk fired up than to raise the topic of dashboards. Are they where data goes to die, or are they the essential key to unlocking self-service access to actionable insights? Are they both? Is the question irrelevant, because, if they exist to inform business users, aren't they soon going to be replaced by an AI-powered chatbot, anyway? We thought a great way to dig into the topic (and, BTW, we were right) would be to have someone on the show who has co-penned multiple books on the topic. As luck would have it, Andy Cotgreave, one of the co-authors of both 2017's The Big Book of Dashboards: Visualizing Your Data Using Real-World Business Scenarios and the imminently releasing  Dashboards That Deliver: How to Design, Develop, and Deploy Dashboards That Work agreed to join us for a lively chat on the topic! This episode's Measurement Bite from show sponsor Recast is a quick explanation of power analysis from Michael Kaminsky!

Long time Worship Pastor, Tara Banks has experienced the most difficult year of her life. In this episode she shares her story of God's faithfulness and describes her grateful heart despite the immense suffering. Through it all, Tara wrote a book called Finding Everyday Fruit: Discover and Develop a Life Formed by the Fruit of the Spirit.  With host Joey Svendsen, the two discuss the Fruit of the Spirit in the context of her book; and switch topics to question worship services: Should big screens show closeups of worship leaders during services? Why does Seacoast play high quality worship music and what role do human emotions play in the worship experience? And, what does it say about a person who has a challenging time worshipping to songs he or she doesn't like?  At the top of the episode, Nick Johnston, Lynne Stroy and Joey Svendsen discuss some convictions they hold and current practices they engage in, during times of corporate worship.  Be a Patron of the podcast  and support our ministry efforts in local prisons.  Tara Banks | Instagram | Book | WebsiteHosts | Nick Johnston | Lynne Stroy | Joey Svendsen We have a YouTube Channel for videos of all episodes since Jan. 2024.

Send us a textWhat's the missing element in your family legacy plan? Most successful entrepreneurs wouldn't dream of running a business without a strategic plan, yet we often leave our most important organization—our families—to operate without clear direction or purpose.The reason God chose Abraham reveals the answer. Genesis 18:19 tells us God selected Abraham specifically because "he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord." This divine endorsement of family planning serves as our foundation for creating lasting legacies that extend beyond financial success.A comprehensive family plan consists of several critical components. Start with a vision statement—a concise declaration of what your family stands for (mine is "Passion for Jesus, compassion for people"). Develop a mission statement outlining how you'll live that vision daily. Identify core values that define your family character—these become the filters through which you make decisions. Finally, create a family constitution establishing rules for handling conflicts, money, responsibilities, and time.Implementing this framework requires intentional family gatherings where everyone contributes to the conversation about what you collectively value. Document these discussions and revisit them regularly during family meetings. As Habakkuk 2:2 instructs, "Write the vision down, make it plain." My family has begun this journey by exploring what the McCart family should be known for—loyalty, family unity, generosity, and Spirit-led decision-making.The benefits are transformative: unity during challenges, clear decision-making frameworks, stronger identity in your children, and effective transfer of both wealth and values to future generations. Don't leave your family's legacy to chance. Start crafting your family vision today, and discover how this intentionality becomes the foundation for generational impact.Have you started developing your family plan? Share this episode with someone who needs to hear this message, and let me know how these principles are transforming your approach to family leadership.Support the show

"Let not your heart be troubled." - Jesus In the face of tragedy, we have a choice: let fear win or let faith rise. Today's message reminds us that even in our darkest moments, God's peace can guard our hearts. The enemy may scheme, but he just woke a giant - the Church. We're called to be bold in our faith, to cast our cares on Him, and to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus. Remember: You are built to live by faith. Don't let your heart be troubled. Replace worry with worship. Your strength comes from the joy of the Lord.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Charelle Lans. A six-time award-winning author, motivational speaker, and business strategist known as the “business therapist.” Here's a detailed summary of the key insights and takeaways:

Segment 1: • A tragedy: Charlie Kirk's murder forces us to wrestle with God's sovereignty. • Why does a good God ordain evil acts? Four rules help us think rightly. • God is working out good, but we must guard against demanding to see it. Segment 2: • What God ordains is always good—even when we do not understand how it could be. • Wrestling with suffering? The problem is never God's character, but our perspective. • Develop a robust theodicy—God ordains all, yet isn't the sinner. Segment 3: • The assassination exposes the real crisis: the human heart, not politics. • Political divides weren't always deadly—what changed? • The only way forward isn't civility campaigns but the Gospel itself. Segment 4: • Should the murder reignite debate on the death penalty? • Taking a life is dehumanizing—Romans 1 on display. • If this tragedy grieves us, how much more does it grieve God? ___ Thanks for listening!

In this episode of the Truth From The Stand podcast, I sit down with Bill Thompson to dig into the overlap between hunting and jiu-jitsu. We talk about why having a system matters, how asking the right questions sharpens your approach, and why mindset is everything when the pressure is on—whether you're on the mats or in the whitetail woods. Bill shares how flow state isn't just a buzzword but a real advantage in both disciplines, and why chasing small, incremental improvements can lead to big results over time. We get into the way social media warps what “success” looks like, the value of teaching the next generation, and how reflection and journaling can make you a better hunter and a better person. Bill also gives us a peek into his upcoming season and what's next for Spartan Forge, with an emphasis on doing things the right way—building quality tools and investing in the hunting community. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 457 Hunting and jiu-jitsu both demand embracing discomfort and challenges. Systems and asking the right questions lead to better decision-making. Flow state creates clarity and therapy in both the woods and on the mats. The process of growth is more valuable than the end result. Mindset and grounded confidence shape outcomes in hunting and life. Small, consistent improvements build long-term success. Passing lessons to the next generation keeps traditions alive.

The conversation around AI and writing is heating up. But too often, it's framed as a false choice: AI is either “bad” and deceptive, or it's the ultimate shortcut to productivity. In this solo episode, I challenge that binary thinking and unpack the real issues at stake for freelance writers. Sparked by a provocative LinkedIn post from Mariya Delano, CEO of Kalyna Marketing, this discussion dives into the myths and misconceptions that keep us stuck in unproductive debates. I lay out 10 false assumptions fueling the AI writing controversy. And I explain why the future belongs to freelancers who can master what I call “creative synthesis,” which is the ability to skillfully combine human judgment, lived experience, taste, and AI capabilities into something far greater than either could achieve alone. If you've been wondering how to navigate the AI conversation with clients — or how to position yourself to thrive in an AI-enhanced world — this episode will give you the clarity and confidence you need. What You'll Learn Why binary debates about AI (“good” vs. “bad”) miss the bigger picture The 10 false assumptions about AI that are holding writers back How to reframe AI as a tool for amplification (not deception!) The concept of Creative Synthesis and why it's the skill that will set you apart The four phases of Creative Synthesis mastery and how to progress through them Key Insights and Takeaways AI doesn't equal deception: Like Grammarly or Google, it's a tool. What matters is how you use it and whether you're transparent. Not all AI is the same: There's a vast spectrum of use cases, from research to brainstorming to drafting, and lumping them all together is misleading. Clients care about results, not process: What builds trust is consistent, high-value outcomes. It's not about whether AI played a role behind the scenes. Creative Synthesis is the future: The winning freelancers will be those who can blend AI capabilities with strategic insight, emotional intelligence, and client understanding. Action Steps You Can Take This Week Audit your AI beliefs: Which of the 10 assumptions have you unconsciously bought into? Experiment intentionally: Spend 30 minutes testing a new AI workflow for creativity and strategy, not just for efficiency. Develop your AI policy: Be ready to discuss openly with clients how (if at all) you use AI in your process. Shift your mindset: Stop asking “AI vs. no AI?” and start asking, “How can I combine AI with my skills to deliver extraordinary value?” Memorable Soundbites “The debate isn't AI good or AI bad. The real question is: how will you use it to create something that only you can?” “Using AI doesn't make you less original. What makes your work original is the judgment, taste, and perspective only you bring.” “The freelancers who thrive won't be the ones avoiding AI or blindly copy-pasting it. To thrive in the years ahead you'll need to master Creative Synthesis.” Listener Challenge This week, pick one client project (current or past) and ask yourself: Where could AI have enhanced my process—not replaced me, but amplified my creativity, speed, or strategic value? Then take one small step to test that approach in your next project. If this episode resonated, share it with a fellow freelancer navigating the AI conversation. And don't forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode packed with insights to help you earn more in less time... doing work you love, for better clients.

Are we too busy, too distracted, or too shallow to let God's Word take root, or are we cultivating good soil that produces lasting fruit? In this message from The Roads Church, Pastor Chad Everett teaches from Mark 4 on the parable of the sower and the soils. The seed—the Word of God—is always good, but the condition of our heart determines the harvest. As you listen, you will be challenged to: Examine the true condition of your heart. Understand why repentance is necessary for forgiveness. Develop ears that hear and apply God's Word. Keep sowing faithfully, even when you don't feel like it. Guard against the busyness and distractions that steal the seed. This episode is a call to slow down, open your Bible, and let the Holy Spirit show you the state of your heart. The same seed can bring thirty, sixty, or a hundredfold return—but only in soil that is ready. The Roads Church: https://theroads.church

It was about this time last year when I got a panicked email from a parent: “Jack broke his left wrist this week. What does this mean for piano? He's in a cast.”Has this ever happened to you? Some parents may assume that lessons need to be paused during this time. I mean, they can't play with only one hand… or can they?The answer is yes, and there's more and more one-handed repertoire available. With a broken foot, we can focus on repertoire that doesn't use the pedal, or they can learn to pedal with their left foot for a few weeks.But more importantly, what I want to convey to parents (and students) is that playing is only one facet of musicianship. There are so many other things we do in lessons, so many other skills we're working to develop. It reminds me of something Frances Clark once said, “Teach the student first, the music second, and the piano third.”Today, I'm sharing a list of nine lesson activities you can do with a broken arm. Some of these are specific to piano, but some are relevant no matter what instrument you teach.

They'll protect and advocate for them fiercely.” —Lacey Villasenor  “Like missionaries, we need to contextualize ministry for this generation. Let's stay focused on the basics and let God's Word do the work.” —Paul Worcester  “If we're spending more time on developing bumper videos and planning games than we are in the Word and preparing to teach the Word, we're missing it. And this generation will reject that.” —Shane Pruitt  

Episode 277 is about the one thing standing between you and achieving your goals. Your Mind Set!   The only thing standing between you and your goal is you. I is the story you keep telling yourself as to why you can't achieve it. What I will share is how you can begin to change the narrative of the conversation going on in your mind—Your vision, along with action.  You can change where you are and who you want to be.   The standard you set, keeping in mind that you're competing against yourself, not others. You're on a journey, and it's a process of pursuing.   The question to think about today is, Is Your Mind Set? And what is it set on? Your mind set is one of the most crucial elements of success in any field: creating a winning mindset. It's not about luck. It's about how you think, how you approach challenges, and the internal narrative you're having every single day. So, what does it truly take to build a mindset that wins?    So, what exactly is a "winning mindset"? It's the mental foundation that allows you to see opportunity where others see obstacles. It's the engine that drives you forward, even when the path is difficult.   Let's break it down into four key elements.   Self-belief. The absolute foundation of a winning mindset. It's you against you, not others. You have to believe in your ability to succeed. Think about any great athlete or innovator. Before anyone else believed in them, they believed in themselves. It's about a quiet, steady confidence in your capabilities.   A practical way to build this is to celebrate your small wins. Did you finish a challenging task at work? A knowledge of it. Did you stick to your workout plan? Give yourself credit. Each small victory builds evidence that you are capable, strengthening your belief over time.   Resilience. Life will knock you down. You will face setbacks, failures, and criticism. That's a guarantee. A winning mindset isn't about avoiding failure; it's about bouncing back from it, stronger and wiser. Think of it like a muscle. Every time you face a challenge and push through, your resilience grows. Something I learned from Warren Buffett is that the more you learn, the more you earn.  Be open to learning along the way.    Clear goal-setting. A winner knows where they are going. Vague hopes, such as "I want to be successful," are not enough. A winning mindset requires vision with specific and actionable goals. You need a destination to aim for.   What is something you want to pursue? Better health, better relationships,  a better life.   Try the SMART goal framework: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. Instead of "I want to get in shape," a winning goal is "I will run a 5k in three months by training three times a week." This clarity gives you a roadmap and turns a distant dream into a series of manageable steps.   Positive habits. Your daily actions shape your mindset. Winners build routines that support their goals. They don't rely on motivation alone, because motivation can fade. They rely on discipline and habits. Have the courage to take action.   Consider the habit of a positive morning routine. Instead of grabbing your phone and scrolling through social media, what if you spent the first 15 minutes meditating, journaling, or planning your day? This slight shift can set a positive and productive tone for everything that follows. S art small. Pick one habit you want to build—like reading for 10 minutes a day or writing down three things you're grateful for—and stick with it. Consistency is what solidifies a winning mindset.   Let's recap the four pillars: build unshakable self-belief by celebrating your wins. Develop resilience by learning from your setbacks. Set clear, specific goals to give yourself direction. A d cultivate positive habits that support your journey.   The power to change your life resides in your mind. The story you tell yourself becomes your reality.   So, here is your call to action. I encourage you to take one step today—just one. Pick one of the elements we talked about. Write down one clear, specific goal for this week. Maybe it's taking five minutes to list three past accomplishments you're proud of to build that self-belief. Don't wait for the "perfect" moment. The moment is now. Start building your winning mindset today, and watch how your world begins to change.     Until next time.

Description:In this episode, we dive into the deep ways childhood experiences shape how we connect, trust, and relate to others—and how those wounds can follow us into adulthood. If you've ever felt the sting of emotional neglect, the confusion of inconsistent love, or the fear of vulnerability, this episode is for you. Together, we explore what attachment wounds are, how they show up in relationships and faith, and, most importantly, how God can be the ultimate secure attachment figure. I'll guide you through practical steps to experience God's unwavering love, let Him reparent the parts of you that were hurt, and start building healthier, more secure connections with others. By the end, you'll have reflection tools, prayer practices, and a fresh perspective on trust, healing, and belonging in Christ.Breakdown of Episode 1:17 Intro to Topic  7:39 What Are Attachment Wounds? 17:40 God As the Ultimate Secure Attachment Figure 22:53 How to Develop a Secure Attachment With God 35:40 Healing Attachment Wounds in Human Relationships 41:44 Practical Exercises to Build a Secure Connection With GodGO HERE FOR SOURCEShttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1eWy0bAGN9Y0Znyg2jTCSerSFHRwQzAIXhcnBg0Mo8jI/edit?usp=sharing Christian Emotional Recovery Resources Podcast WebsiteAccess Episodes, Get Free Resources, and More Facebook GroupJoin Community, Get Support, and Get Weekly Encouragement YouTube ChannelSubscribe for Exclusive Material Not on Podcast Christian Emotional Recovery StoreGet meditations, infographics, journals, and other resources for your healing journey Trauma SurvivorsCheck out Resources Page for Trauma Survivors Email ListGet updates on episodes, platform, resources, and products Free ResourceFree Visual A.C.O.R.N Resource to Heal Difficult Emotions Donate Monthly Through PatreonHelp More Trauma Survivors Through This Ministry ...

Jason Ackerman sat down with the team behind HustleUp at the CrossFit Games. We break down how HustleUp is simplifying gym management and bringing the global CrossFit community together.----

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the transformative power of joy in our Christian walk. The central theme revolves around Philippians 4:4, 'Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!' We're challenged to embrace joy not as a fleeting emotion, but as a fruit of the Spirit and a powerful spiritual weapon. The message draws parallels between Paul's circumstances in prison and our own challenges, emphasizing that true joy transcends our situations. We're encouraged to fix our thoughts on things worthy of praise, as outlined in Philippians 4:8, and to cultivate a mindset of rejoicing even in difficult times. This practice of joy is presented as a key to not letting our hearts be troubled, linking back to Jesus' words in John 14. The message inspires us to live as 'citizens of heaven, commissioned to planet Earth,' carrying the contagious nature of God's joy to a world in need of hope.

In this episode of Connected Leadership Bytes, Andy Lopata revisits his conversation with Alisa Cohn, executive coach and author of From Startup to Grown Up. Alisa Cohn, named the Top Startup Coach in the World, shares her insights on the crucial role of professional relationships at various stages of a leader's journey. Andy and Alisa discuss the concept of "champions" in one's network and emphasise nurturing relationships authentically rather than for a specific purpose. Alisa provides strategies for leaders at different stages and they look at adapting networking strategies in a post-pandemic world, highlighting the value of virtual connections and creativity. Alisa also stresses that leaders must "find a way" to build relationships, as it is essential for career growth. The discussion also touches on the psychological aspects of leadership, such as managing self-talk, and offers practical advice for co-founder dynamics and navigating difficult conversations with scripts Alisa provides in her book. Key Takeaways: Networking is Non-Negotiable: Building and nurturing relationships is essential for your career, and you must always find a way to connect with others, regardless of external circumstances. Strategic Relationship Building: The key people you need in your network evolve as your career progresses; be strategic about connecting with mentors, investors, peers, or customers depending on your current stage. Authenticity Over Transaction: The most powerful relationships are nurtured naturally over time. Concentrate on being helpful and authentic, and you will reap the benefits. Lead Yourself First: Your self-image and internal dialogue directly impact your ability to build relationships. Managing your own mindset is the first step to effective leadership. Communication is Foundational: Clear communication, especially around expectations and values, is critical for preventing conflict and building strong partnerships. Actionable Insights: Map Your Network Needs: Identify what career stage you are in (startup, scale-up, or established leader) and list the three types of connections that would be most valuable to you right now. Then, devise a strategy to meet people in those categories. Practice Positive Outreach: The next time you reach out to someone new, do your research first. Reference something specific you admire about their work, explain the mutual value in connecting, and if possible, mention a shared contact with context. Develop a "Co-founder Prenup": If you have a business partner, set aside time to discuss and align on core values, long-term vision, and how you will handle disagreements. This proactive conversation can prevent future conflicts.  SELECTED LINKS FROM THE EPISODE Connect with Andy Lopata: Website | Instagram | LinkedIn | X/Twitter | YouTube Connect with Alisa Cohnr: Website |LinkedIn | The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring Episode 135 Featuring Alisa Cohn

So much of modern church culture encourages us to hide. Hide our struggles. Hide our doubts. Hide the messy, complicated truth of being human. But Jesus never invited us into a sanitized faith. He called us into something real. In today's episode, I explore the next mark of an Emotionally Healthy Culture: Creating a Church Where It's Safe to Be Human. We'll unpack five countercultural practices that dismantle toxic judgment, challenge our compulsion to fix others, and build a community that mirrors the love of Jesus. You'll hear stories, examples, and frameworks that will help you… Build emotional safety into your leadership core. Develop a high level of differentiation as a spiritual leader. Create a church culture that invites people to come out of hiding and into the light. This isn't a side issue. It's central to deep discipleship. Let's stop pretending—and start building churches where people experience the grace of God, not just hear about it.
