Success isn't about grinding harder—it's about building patterns that last. Show Notes: In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor breaks down the myth of “grind culture” and why working endless hours isn't the path to success. True growth comes from building consistent, effective patterns that move you forward without burning you out. Using insights from training, work, and life, Baylor explains how to shift your mindset from just clocking hours to focusing on intentional effectiveness. Whether it's your career, relationships, or health, it's not about how much time you spend—it's about the patterns you create and the consistency you maintain. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why the word “grind” literally means to rub away—and how that applies to your energy The danger of glorifying busyness without effectiveness Why holidays don't pause your potential (and what that means for your goals) How patterns and consistency matter more than sheer hours The mindset shift from “I've got to grind harder” to “I've got to build lasting habits” Featured Quote: "It's not about the grind—it's about the patterns you build and the consistency you keep."

Host Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with Dr. Daniela Lobo, a leading expert in addiction psychiatry, to explore just how dramatically gambling—especially online and sports betting—has surged in prevalence, fueled by intensive marketing and made even more accessible by the pandemic's isolation.Together, Dr. Bonta and Dr. Lobo break down the reality behind those flashy ads and glossy casino images, peeling back the curtain on the true costs of problem gambling. They explore not just the personal financial and mental fallout, but the ripple effects that devastate families, drive up debt, worsen mental health struggles, and even intersect with substance use disorders. As gambling apps, sports betting, and even crypto-trading continue to blur the lines between entertainment and addiction, the doctors unpack why so many young adults—and increasingly, teens—find themselves hooked.Dr. Lobo shares practical insights for recognizing gambling problems, supporting loved ones, and opening honest conversations with kids. Most importantly, they question whether the billions gained in gambling revenue are truly worth the social and health costs we're only beginning to acknowledge.If you've ever wondered what really drives gambling addiction, how to spot it, or what responsible action looks like for individuals and society, you won't want to miss this eye-opening, evidence-based conversation.

In this latest episode, Pastor Rod Parsley and Ashton Blaire take us behind the curtain for an intimate, hilarious, and faith-filled conversation about the early days of Breakthrough/World Harvest Church media ministry, the miracles that built a movement, and the calling that still fuels their fire today. From creating an entire TV set on the platform after Sunday night services, to believing for brand new cameras with zero budget — this is the raw, unfiltered, behind-the-scenes story of how one small step of obedience launched a global television ministry. You'll laugh at the DIY days, be encouraged by the testimonies, and walk away reminded: God still works miracles when you dare to “dig a ditch” and believe!

Send us a textTired of posting your heart out and getting crickets? Your messaging might be the missing piece. In this episode, Rachel gets real about why your carefully crafted posts aren't converting and shares the exact framework that turns browsers into buyers. Whether you're building your network marketing business or launching your own income stream, this episode will transform how you speak to your ideal customer—using their words, not yours.Key TakeawaysStop paraphrasing their problems - When someone says "I feel stuck," don't translate it to "you're misaligned." Use their exact words because that's how they think and search for solutions.The sticky note test - If your message doesn't fit on a sticky note, you're trying to solve too many problems at once. Focus on ONE specific struggle per post.Mirror back their language - When your ideal person says they want a "calm vibe" in their home, use "calm vibe"—not "relaxed atmosphere." Their words = instant connection.Ditch industry jargon immediately - Words like "prospect" and "recruit" make people run. Your audience isn't thinking in MLM-speak, so neither should you.Use "Do you feel..." questions for market research - Test your messaging with simple yes/no questions like "Do you feel like you're doing all the things, but nothing's working?" The responses will guide your content strategy.Before and after messaging clarity - Get specific about what your ideal person feels BEFORE they find your solution versus AFTER. This creates compelling, relatable content that sells itself.Take Action NowReady to transform your messaging and start seeing real results?

In this episode I chat with Michael Kemp, author of three investment books—Creating Real Wealth, Uncommon Sense, and The Ulysses Contract. Our conversation was inspired by Michael's presentation at the 2025 Australian Shareholders Association conference, diving deeply into the quirks of human psychology and how they shape our investing decisions. Our brains are wired for survival in a prehistoric world, often leading us astray in modern financial markets. Michael pointed out that our ancestors needed to make snap judgments to avoid becoming a predator's lunch. This instinct to form quick beliefs based on minimal evidence was life-saving back then but can be disastrous for investors today.Blog post available at:https://www.sharesforbeginners.com/blog/michael-kemp-real-wealthWatch on YouTubeLevel up your investing with Sharesight, Investopedia's #1 portfolio tracker for DIY investors.

I am going to start this marketing monologue with a story.  I'm going to start with a story. I was about four years old and I went into a bakery with my dad. And while he was ordering breads and pastries, I was standing there looking in the glass counter at these beautiful pastries. Eventually, my dad looked down and he says, Lanie, do you want one? Yes, Daddy. So the woman reaches behind the counter and she gets me a Charlotte Russe. Now, if you're not from New York, you may not know what a Charlotte Russe pastry is. It's a little piece of pound cake stuffed inside a tube about the size of a toilet paper roll filled with whipped cream. And then on the very top, there's a cherry. She hands it to me, and I say thank you—because I was a very polite child. I ate the cherry off the top and as we were leaving, the pastry falls to the ground. Before I had a chance to say anything, the woman came running out from behind the counter and said, Don't cry, sweetie, I'll get you another one. Lanie, do you want another one? Yes, Daddy. And so the woman gave me another pastry. This time, as we were leaving, I ate the cherry off the top, and—yep—you guessed it. I dropped the pastry on the floor. Why did you do that? my father asked. And I probably should mention right about now that my dad was not a patient person. I said, I only wanted the cherry. What we had was a failure to communicate. My dad was talking about pastries. I was talking about cherries. Anyone who has spent time with children knows this feeling—talking about something and realizing halfway through the child has no idea what you mean. That's because children come into a conversation with a smaller worldview. They don't have the same vocabulary, experience, or context. So they focus on the parts that make sense and miss the bigger picture. But here's the thing: adults do the exact same thing. Every networking event, every pitch, every sales call—people nod politely while you talk about your process, your platform, or your proprietary system… but if you're not speaking their language, they check out. They're thinking about their next meeting. Or dinner. Or pastries. So how do you keep them with you? How do you connect, especially when your work is a little technical or complex? Here's how: 1. Simplify your message. Strip out the jargon. Ditch the 12-step framework. Lead with the cherry—the one irresistible thing you know they'll understand and care about. 2. Use familiar comparisons. Find a metaphor, an analogy, something from their world. Talk about what you do the way you'd explain it to a 10-year-old—without being condescending. Just clear. 3. Test your message before the real thing. Before your next networking event or client meeting, practice explaining what you do to a non-marketing friend. Or your kid. Or even out loud in the mirror. If you can't make it land simply, it's too complicated. 4. Lead with benefits, not process. You help clients get more leads, increase visibility, or stop spinning their wheels online. That's what they want to hear. The platform, the tools, the magic—save that for later. 5. Watch for confused faces—and adjust. If someone looks puzzled or politely disengaged, pause. Ask a question. Reframe. Don't just keep steamrolling through your pitch. That's how pastries get dropped. The bottom line? If you want better conversations and better results :Say less. Make it clearer. Make it about them. And when you do, you just might walk away with more sales, more referrals… and the occasional cherry on top. If this sparked an idea or reminded you of your own “cherry on top” moment, I'd love to hear about it. Hit the “Let's Chat” button on all my social profiles or drop by morethanafewwords.com.

At the EUVC Summit 2025, Kerry Baldwin (IQ Capital) and Chris Elphick led one of the most urgent conversations of the year:Can Europe mobilize its pension capital to fund innovation—or will it stay stuck on the sidelines?With £1 trillion expected to be funneled into innovation, growth, and venture by 2030, the opportunity is massive. But unlocking it will take more than speeches and slogans. It will take structures, translation, and a whole lot of education.Chris opened by setting the context:In July 2023, 10 of the UK's largest pension funds agreed to invest 5% of assets into unlisted equities—representing £5 billion of fresh capital.That capital is (unsurprisingly) biased toward private equity. But the real win?Getting a meaningful slice of it into venture.We now have the technical tools to do it:The introduction of Long-Term Asset Funds (LTAFs)—with 27 launched to date—means the legal infrastructure is in place.Regulatory shifts have opened the door. Now it's time to walk through it.“The pipes are built. Now we need to make the case.”As Kerry pointed out, it's not just about access—it's about alignment.“The pension world doesn't speak venture. It speaks in valuations, risk ratings, board approvals, and actuarial models.”To bridge the gap:Ditch the pitch decks. Instead, build relationships.Use case studies. Show, don't just tell.Speak their language. Get founders in the room. Educate through stories and real-world examples.And yes, explain your fees—transparently.→ “We charge fees because we hunt. We engage with professors. We run deep knowledge sessions. That's where the value lives.”Kerry closed with a critical reminder from someone who's seen the cycles before—2001, 2009, and now:“Just play nicely.”→ That means fair terms.→ Respecting early-stage angels.→ Not forcing founder-unfriendly clauses when capital is tight.Venture doesn't work when trust is broken at the seed layer.The prize is on the table. The pipes are laid. The policymakers are listening.Now it's up to us—as GPs, founders, LPs, and ecosystem builders—to:Make venture legibleBuild long-term trustAnd design financial vehicles that serve founders, fuel returns, and unlock national innovation agendas“Let's stop waiting for the future to finance itself. Let's build the financial architecture to fund it now.”The Landscape: Shifting Regulations, Real PotentialThe Real Bottleneck? Language & UnderstandingA Word of Warning: Don't Harm the EcosystemA Trillion-Pound Opportunity—If We Get This Right

The world screams, “more!” Do more. Be more. Have more. The pressure for more affects us all–just look at your schedule or “to-do” list as proof. It’s an exhausting way to live. But what if life could feel lighter, freer, and more joy-filled—just by letting go of things that weigh us down? In this episode, I share lessons from a challenging summer and a heartfelt conversation with my daughter about the power of identifying things I don’t need–not stuff like outdated clothes (although that’s not a bad idea!)-but rather, things that affect us on a deeper level. Together, we’ll unpack four common areas of mental and emotional clutter—from social media overload to self-criticism—and learn how to release them. Guided by Philippians 4:8, we’ll explore how clearing space in our minds creates room for peace and purpose. If you’re ready for more clarity and less chaos, this conversation will help you take meaningful steps toward living with intention. Because sometimes knowing what we DON’T need is just as important as knowing what we DO need. Xo, Donna Don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss a single episode!

It feels like it's been forever since it was just Kelly and Lizz and they have SO much to talk about… and not talk about. While Lizz has been solo parenting for two weeks (an experience that has changed her as a person), Kelly has been prepping for her birthday. Did you know that making the perfect potato salad could cause a lot of stress and discussion? A lot of tangible takeaways here from Kelly's potato salad trauma. In the end it all turned out to be the perfect evening, including some lovely gifts from her family. This leads right into a tangible takeaway from Lizz on how to start the perfect gift tradition.  The potato salad stress might have been a bit exaggerated by a MASSIVE interview for the Car Mom. Kelly and Lizz traveled to Detroit to chat with GM CEO Mary Barra. They gave a little preview of the interview as well as talked about the friends they did not make in the car seat lab.  Another massive milestone happened in the Stumpe household as George headed off to school for the very first time. Kelly is so ready to be in her “mom of school kids” era and already planning her truck-or-treat decorations. Speaking of family time, Kelly is ready to introduce her kids to “Shark Boy and Lava Girl” in hopes that they will want to dress as them for Halloween. Is “Spy Kids” next? Both movies go perfect with a Ditch the Drive-Thru favorite: pulled pork bbq nachos!

Happy Sunday! Welcome to Heal Squad's The Sunday Set Up, life lessons to help you start the week. This week, we explore what happens when you step outside the roles others have cast you in. Maybe you've always been the peacemaker, the responsible one, the one who holds it all together. But what if that “box” is actually holding you back? We unpack how family systems often resist change, especially when you stop playing the part that keeps the dysfunction spinning. We talk about protecting your energy, reclaiming your joy, and surrounding yourself with people who see your whole self, not just the role you play. From building boundaries to breaking patterns, it's time to choose what fuels you, not what placates them. Like a family merry-go-round, they may panic when you hop off, but don't let that drag you back. Their limits aren't yours. Stand tall, breathe deep, and follow what lights you up. Remember, the box was never real. And nothing here is permanent…except change. Let go and be present. Have a great week, Heal Squad!
