UNIQUE SHOWS COME FROM UNIQUE PERSONALITIES When you try to be all things to all people, you end up being nothing. You're not unique. PICK A SIDE Focus your topic on what you know best. Be opinionated. Be passionate. Pick a side. Be unique. Most of all, be consistent. When you try to discuss an industry in general, your audience won't know what to expect when they visit your show. Let's take Dave Ramsey for example. During the opening of “The Dave Ramsey Show”, Dave would say, "Where debt is dumb, cash is king, and the paid-off home mortgage has taken the place of the BMW as the status symbol of choice." Dave's show is a personal finance show. Moreover, it is a show about getting out of debt. Dave helps people find ways to pay off their debt and become financially stable. "The Dave Ramsey Show" didn't discuss particular stocks or mutual funds. It didn't discuss how to go about investing other than simply suggesting you sock away 15 percent of your income for retirement and then some for college. Dave's show recommends 7 basic steps to financial security. He has been doing a show on these 7 steps for over 30 years. Every show, everyday, every call. It was all about these 7 steps in some way or another. When you tuned into "The Dave Ramsey Show", you knew what you would get. Dave was focused. CHANGING DAVE As Dave gets older and closer to retirement, he is thinking about the future of the show and company. He changed the name of the show from The Dave Ramsey Show to The Ramsey Show. To help him ease his way into retirement, Dave incorporates other Ramsey Personalities into the show as co-hosts or hosts when he is gone. The show isn't just hosted by Dave. When you tune in, it could be hosted by Ken Coleman, Rachel Cruze, Dr. John Delony, George Kamel or Jade Warshaw. It may even be hosted by a couple of them if Dave is not there. The intro of the show has changed. When it was the Dave Ramsey show, Dave would say, "Where debt is dumb, cash is king, and the paid off home mortgage has taken the place of the BMW as the status symbol of choice." Now with 6 different hosts with different areas of expertise, the intro of the show says, "Where we help people build wealth, do work that they love, and create amazing relationships." The show has become less focused on getting out of debt and personal wealth and more about life in general. Before, I knew what I got. I was in financial trouble and needed answers. Now, I could get anything. Does the show help me with my job search, or my relationship with my in-laws, or getting out of debt, or starting a business, or dealing with my boss, or my kids assuming I will watch the grandkids, or negotiating my credit card rate? All of it. You don't know what you're going to get or who will be giving it to you. The show is losing its clarity. Give your podcast focus. Your audience will appreciate the consistency. YOU UNIQUE What makes you different? When you try to please everyone, you end up pleasing no one. Make people take notice. You are an expert at your opinion. Give it to people. Take a stand. Pick a side. Some of the nicest people make the worst podcast hosts. They try to please everyone in the audience. Those people tend to blend into the background and go unnoticed. I once coached a radio host who was one of the best storytellers I had ever met. When he and I would meet one-on-one for coaching, he would tell me some of the funniest stories I had ever heard. He would tell me stories of his dad that would have me crying from laughing so hard. He once told me his dad was absolutely convinced the PT Cruiser was the best car ever made. As much as my host would try to explain that the PT Cruiser was simply the Dodge Neon chassis with a different body, his father wouldn't believe it. The two of them would get in these heated arguments in public about this car. Of all the things in life you could argue about, this happened to be the PT Cruiser. The way the story was told was full of fabulous details. The host really had the ability to make the stories come to life. As much as I would encourage him, the host wouldn't tell those stories on the radio. He didn't believe the audience as a whole would be interested. Instead, he played it safe. He only discussed vanilla content that wouldn't upset anyone. Unfortunately, the show never took hold. UPSET THEM If you're not upsetting someone, you aren't trying hard enough. I would much rather have half the audience hate me and the other half love me rather than the entire audience have no opinion one way or the other. If the audience doesn't have an opinion, they don't care. I'm doing nothing to stir their emotion if I'm not making them pick a side. If you haven't picked a side and really focused your topic, people won't care. They won't be passionate about your show. Speak your mind. Be different. Get noticed. Make people care. BIG PARTY Big Party on the other hand lived his life on the radio. I hired Mike from the college station to be the morning host on our Top 40 station. His on-air name was Big Party, because that's exactly what you got. Big Party has a unique perspective on the world. He would ask questions everyone wanted to ask, but was afraid of asking. He would tell stories and share thoughts nobody would share. It was my job to help him share his stories and bring out the right pieces to create great content. We shaped his stories to allow the audience get to know him and what he was all about. People loved it. And, they loved him. Everywhere Party went, he knew people and they knew him. The show was authentic, engaging, hilarious, and some of the best radio. His show quickly went to #1. CONNECT Your success is all about connecting, inspiring and motivating your listeners. When you connect, inspire and motivate your audience, you stir emotions within your listener. Those emotions are powerful. Emotions make people come back for more, because the create a bonding relationship. Connect with your listener by revealing things about yourself. Revelations make you human. They show your listener that you are a normal person and just like them. They can relate to you. Tell your listener about yourself. Describe the mistakes you've made. Talk about your hardships. Discuss the obstacles you've overcome. Your listener will relate to that. I WASN'T UNIQUE When I first began in broadcasting, I had no idea what I was doing. In fact, I was getting my degree in Architecture. I started drafting when I was 13. That was all I ever wanted to do. I fell into broadcasting by accident. While working weekends at a roller skating rink, I was offered a part-time job at a radio station running some equipment. I was making a few dollars to blow in college … while getting my degree in Architecture. My first full-time broadcasting job came while still studying Architecture. Each day I was on the air, I felt like an imposter. What right did I have to be on the radio talking to thousands of people everyday? I didn't know anything about broadcasting. After finishing my Architecture degree, I stayed in radio. Everyday, I learned a little more about broadcasting. I read all I could about the field. Little by little, my confidence grew. Years later, I realized I could reveal things about myself during my show. People did actually care about me. Relationships formed. Success came my way. REVEAL THINGS Self revelation during your show will help your relationships grow as well. Have confidence in yourself to connect with your audience. Once you've started to build that relationship, you can begin to inspire your audience. If you can do it, they can do it, too. Give him hope. Light that fire of desire within her. Stir emotions. Describe success. Now that your listener can envision success, show her how to get there. Motivate her to take action. Break the process down to small steps that she can easily take. Motivate her to take a step each day. Connect, inspire and motivate your listener with each podcast. When you create strong relationships with your audience, you create fans for life. If I can turn a degree in Architecture into a career in broadcasting, you can be successful there as well. Make it happen. YOUR UNIQUE AUTHORITY To become an authority and influencer in your niche, you need to stand out and be unique. You can do that by sharing yourself. Develop your personality and which parts you'd like to highlight on your show. Then, tell stories to develop that reputation with your audience. Build relationships.   If you don't have a mentor who can take your hand and walk you every step of the way, go to www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/apply, click the button and apply to have a chat with me.

Join Wes this week on Shaping Success as he interviews his good friend Jhae Pfenning who is also is co host on One Drink Wednesday currently on Instagram, but they are looking to move it to YouTube. Wes and Jhae talk about growing up and cars.In keeping with the spirit of One Drink Wednesday, Wes and Jhae take a shot of the energy drink Magic Mind. Jhae found when he took it in the morning, he doesn't get that 2:30 pm slump. He would typically need some coffee at that time for a pick-me-up, but he didn't need it. Wes and Jhae agree that Magic Mind is healthier than coffee and booze, and it also tastes good! One Drink Wednesday is a show co hosted by Wes and Jhae every Wednesday at 7pm PST. They typically have a show and tell, this day in history, and just added a segment called Rotten Tomatoes. They are looking into having a guest along with him and Jhae to play the Rotten Tomato game. Wes and Jhae talk about vehicles. They have different habits when it comes to obtaining vehicles and the types of vehicles they favor. Wes favors Honda and Chevrolet. He likes to shuffle newer vehicles. He typically leases his vehicles and switches them out every so often. He had a Honda Pilot, but when he and his family moved to the country away from everything, it wasn't a good choice. It also wasn't big enough for his family. He ended up leasing a Tahoe and buying a Honda Civic. He likes the fact he gets 40 miles to the gallon in the Civic. He also says he feels more comfortable in a Honda Civic with snow tires in the winter than a 4-wheel drive with no snow tires.  Jhae is drawn to Dodge and buys used cars because before it was all they could afford. His wife bought a used Dodge Neon. Jhae had to drive that thing around campus when he was in school, and snow tires helped him get around in that vehicle that otherwise he'd be stuck. He and Wes discuss the best snow tires and studless versus studded. The conversation turns to their kids and are they mature enough to drive when they are old enough to drive? Jhae points out that just because a person is old enough to drive, doesn't mean they should. The same can be said for drinking. Know your kids. Will they appreciate the hard work their parents put into getting them a car and just giving it to them, or do they feel like they are entitled? If they feel entitled, it may be best to let them work for it.  Jhae and Wes point out that when kids start a job and have to pay for their own stuff, that is when they begin to appreciate their things and take care of them. In Arizona where Jhae is, kids don't have to go to driving school to get a driver's license. Kids can be taught independently. If kids take the driver's education course, they get an insurance break. In Idaho, it's mandatory to take the driver's course in order to get a license. Wes says his Nieces and Nephews had to have 6 hours of driving in the course to get their license.Growing up in Texas, Jhae got his first car when his Grandmother passed away, and his parents sold it to him. He was 20 and in college at the time. His parents would help him with payments and car insurance a few times when he couldn't make the payments. For Wes, growing up in Oregon he passed his drivers test on the first try in his Mom's truck which was a stick. Even though he passed, his parents felt someone had to still be in the vehSupport the showFor merchandise, podcast and youtube: westankersley.com Check out our sponsor The Warriors Collection for coffee, gear and more use code TANK at check out for a special Discount! https://warriorscollectionbrand.com/ Follow Shaping Success https://shapingsuccesspodcast.buzzsprout.com/ Email Wes@westankersley.com for guest ideas or to be on the show!

Honda also made a splash with the return of the then legend... the Honda Prelude. Also in this episode, I cover what Subaru is passing off as our future of mobility, new concepts for drag tracks, and incredible records set by a Dodge Neon. Tokyo proved that auto shows can return to the glory days and I hope that this helps spark manufacturers to get back to those days for larger markets in the US.

Up next is holiday chatter. Discussion of Bruce's son's disastrous shredder work is followed up with praise for him getting a job. Then we segue into tonight's main event. In response to the glut of Hallmark movies around the holidays, Stephe took it upon himself to take on the Twelve Days of Liam.  Yes, he watched twelve Liam Neeson movies so, thankfully, we don't have to. Here's the list: Honest Thief Blacklight Memory Unknown A Walk Among the Tombstones The A-Team (with lots of gunfire sound effects) Cold Pursuit Under Suspicion The Commuter Non-Stop Darkman Taken2 We all owe the man a debt of gratitude. Bruce shared his somewhat less arduous holiday viewing: Glass Onion Bullet Train Only Murders in the Building Then we spent an inordinate amount of time discussing Zardoz thanks to a meme Bruce posted. We ended with a rousing round of "What's on Your Desk?" - featuring the Dream of the Magi.  What does that mean?  Listen!

In this episode of The Carmudgeon Show, amateur interior designer Jason Cammisa and living encyclopedia Derek “Hyphen” Tam-Scott go back to the basics and recall their respective foundations in their respective automotive ecosystems. Derek embarks on a trip into his past of Alfa Romeo brake jobs, buying and selling old cars, and building a prolific knowledge of cars and planes through books received since his childhood. In fact, Derek's encyclopedia became certified by age 8 when elaborating on engineering differences between a Porsche 956 and 962 to his family's local mechanic. Jason similarly recalls his beginnings watching and memorizing his parents' movements driving manual transmissions as a child. As a prize for his attentiveness at age 14, he wins an unrealized $50 bet after successfully not stalling his father's FJ60 Toyota Land Cruiser, a journey filled with risky hill-starts and rev-match downshifts. Amidst a discussion of calibrating driving styles and learning how to drive old cars properly, Jason discusses a recent drive in a friend's Ferrari Mondial T after doing some throttle tinkering. As it turns out, the more broken a car is, the better you become as a driver by circumventing the brokenness. And anyway, who's really broken- you or the car? Throughout the episode, Jason and Derek engage in a conversation about the importance of being objective in the world of automotive storytelling. Jason identifies the rewards that come with experiential curiosity and the art of purposeful ambiguity- perhaps, at the cost of being fooled by a PR department behind an Audi RS3 or a similarly FWD-feeling Dodge Neon. Maybe- just maybe- we can all learn to understand a hateful vehicle. All this and more- brought to you by the Hagerty Podcast Network.

This week, your hosts Steve Lowry and Yvonne Godfrey interview Jim Gilbert of The Gilbert Law Group, PC (https://www.thegilbertlawgroup.com/)   Remember to rate and review GTP on iTunes: Click Here To Rate and Review   Case Details: Jim Gilbert, the founder of Colorado's The Gilbert Law Group, PC and former national chairman of the Attorneys Information Exchange Group, shares how he successfully represented Bosnian War refugee Dzemila Heco after she suffered life-altering injuries due to a defective seatback. In August 2007, Dzemila's 2000 Dodge Neon was rear-ended by another car at a stoplight in Vermont. Dzemila, who was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the accident, should have been able to walk away from this minor traffic accident, but her seatback collapsed on impact, causing her to sustain a neck injury that rendered her a permanent quadriplegic in need of round-the-clock care. In today's new episode, learn how "Lawyer of the Year" honoree Jim Gilbert held the seatback manufacturer, Johnson Controls, Inc., responsible for their defective design. Jim discusses how he used expert testimony as well as Johnson Controls, Inc.'s own testing and internal documents against them, including Johnson Controls, Inc.'s 1998 patent filing that stressed the disadvantages of a single-sided recliner. Two years after filing, the same single-sided recliner was implemented in the design of Dzemila's 2000 Dodge Neon. In spite of the defendant's claims that the seat in Dzemila's car met Chrysler's requirements and exceeded government and industry safety standards, the Chittenden County, Vermont jury found the seat to be defective. In June 2013, the jury awarded Dzemila a groundbreaking $43.1 million verdict, the largest jury verdict in the state of Vermont at the time.  Click Here to Read/Download the Complete Trial Documents   Guest Bio: Jim Gilbert A 1968 graduate of New York University Law School, James L.

I spent my first 26 years of life in St. Louis, Missouri. I came to Arizona a couple of times to visit, and decided this is where I wanted to be. So I filled my little Dodge Neon with as much as I could, and I drove out West.I absolutely love Arizona, and definitely do not plan on leaving. I've now been here for 14 years.I've been interested in photography ever since I was little. My grandma was a photographer who developed her own photos in a dark room, and I was always so fascinated by the whole process. I've also loved the fact that beauty can be found in ANYTHING (but not everyone can see it). Or how one photo can make a person laugh, cry, or smile.

Hamilton is a respected figure in the world of healthy lifestyle and travel, as well as special diet, cooking and nutrition. The Healthy Voyager aims to help people live. Well, one veggie at a time.  [00:03:09] So, Carolyn, you've got such a prolific pass in history and right now so many different endeavors that you're working on.  [00:03:16] But I'm hoping before we get started with all of that, you can dress kind of a story or a narrative of your academic past and professional history prior to where you came to right now look like.  [00:03:29] Well, it's it's I always say that when I moved to Los Angeles. Ever since I got here to now, I've lived nine lives. I, I came out here for kind of what most people come out here for, for the industry. And it's it's been a part of my life the entire time. But I've said Wade and gone off path and off tangents so many times. But somehow it all kind of still ties in. So I went to college at the University of Miami for undergrad. I actually was on the medical school track and I wanted to be a pediatric surgeon. And I remember one Christmas break I was talking to a doctor. I was I was actually working at a dentist office and my dentist and I were chatting and he was like, you know, the medical field isn't what it used to be and, you know, all kinds of things. And I never had any doubts about what I wanted to do. But that conversation did kind of bring something up for me that I thought, well, wow, you know what? If this is something that I really, really want to do, it's going to be years before I'm actually done. So I would have had medical school, then residency and then specialty and fellowship. It would have I would have been in school for like 15 years. I thought, well, what if after all of that schooling, I don't like it? Or I thought, well, what if I want to have a family and I'm never gonna have the time to enjoy them because I'll be on call it all started to kind of come up for me. And I thought, well, if I'm having these doubts now, then maybe I should walk away from it. And I was on full scholarship, so I had a couple of years left. And to my mother's chagrin, I said, OK, I'm not going to medical school. And I said, I'm going to I'm going to go to film school. And she was not happy with me, but my father was because he was the creative. And I had actually been since I was five years old, actually, since I was three. I had been dancing and since I was five, I'd been acting. So I'd and I'd been writing my whole life and singing. So I, I kind of went back to my creative roots and I was like, I'm going to do this. And it kind of was no skin off my teeth because I didn't I didn't have to pay. If I had to pay for school to do that, I probably wouldn't have made such a bold choice. But I did because I. I really thought, you know what, I. I've always been creative. I've always wanted to do things in a different way. And when I remember speaking to that dentist that day at work and he did say he's like, you don't really get to do things the way you want to do them anymore. And I thought, wow, if I can't practice medicine the way I want to, then maybe this isn't for me. And it all worked out because once I got to L.A., I came out here. I didn't know anybody. Right after undergrad, I got out here, packed up my Dodge Neon and pulled a tight little U-Haul cross country through through a hurricane. And I got here and my life has been pretty, pretty insane in a in a cool way. I'd say I was working in the industry for a while. I was I was acting and I was singing. And I realized a few years in that it wasn't how I imagined it. I did pretty well growing up in Florida. But the scene out here is quite different. And excuse me, I am I didn't love it anymore because I didn't get to be creative. I didn't like the business side of it. And I didn't like the. How do I say just the kind of the myopic view about things in the business as far as. It wasn't so much based on talent. It really was based on looks and not not so not so much good looks. It just very much type berry type. I'm Latina, but I don't necessarily look Latina to casting directors. So I started to see a pattern and I was like, this is just an uphill battle and I don't even love doing this anymore. And I said, I'm out. And I ended up falling into PR. I was working with a woman and we launched now pretty successful yoga clothing line. And I learned invaluable information and skills from from launching that brand. I learned about ya and and launching a line and and the clothing world and all of that. And I ended up leaving there and going to PR firm. And then I ended up starting my own PR firm. And from that. Yeah. So I thought I was going to do it myself and do it for clients that can't necessarily pay a twenty five hundred to five thousand dollar retainer fee. I want to help the little guy. So I did. So I was doing PR and events. So I did everything from lifestyle PR for clients to weddings, to wrap parties, to fashion shows. And I. That was my life for for quite a while. But before that. Probably within the first few months that I moved to L.A. because of the whole looks and being in the industry, I had read a book called Fit for Life. And it was about food combining because, of course, I got here and I thought, oh, my gosh, I'm going to be really skinny. You know, 22 year old me was thinking kind of a little bit on the shallow side, but it was a book that changed my life. And because it was a fad about food, combining about combining your carbs and your proteins again. Twenty two year old me thought, oh, well, I'd rather eat carbs than protein. And I ended up going vegan plant based pretty much overnight without really knowing much about it. Just that I wanted to. To lose weight or, you know, some ridiculous reason. But it resonated with me so much that I started to really research it. And because I wanted to do it for health reasons and do it correctly. I learned to love it. I ended up getting my masters in holistic nutrition and I started my PGA natural pathic medicine. And I thought, wow, I'm so glad I left medical school because this this makes so much more sense to me. And has at the time, back in 98, there was there was nothing I didn't know any begins. There were there wasn't even a Whole Foods yet. There were, you know, small little markets and everything was very hippie dippy in that space. So I was one of the only people that I knew that was eating that way and living that lifestyle. And I kind of got tired of eating bowls of guacamole and and cucumber sandwiches and salad. I thought there's got to be more to life than the signs of going to culinary school, because I really I always loved cooking, but I wanted to see what else was out there as far as swaps and figuring out how to eat, you know, in this new lifestyle. But I did all of that for my own knowledge, not necessarily to become a chef at a restaurant or open a restaurant or anything like that. I did do some private nutrition counseling for clients, but I. I knew that that wasn't my passion either. So really, I just loved having that knowledge base behind me. So cut to I had my PR firm and I'm doing quite a bit of travel. And because of my dietary restrictions, I was always figuring out ways to manipulate menus. I would I like to say McGyver cook in my hotel room. I always have snacks and I thought, hey, I can't be the only person that's going through this. Not necessarily that there are other beacons out there, but anyone with a dietary restriction, be they diabetic or want to look fat or whatever the case may be. There are a lot of dietary issues out there that keep people from traveling. And I've been traveling since I was a kid. I was born in Colombia. I'm Colombian and I've been all over the world. And I thought, hey, this this could be a resource for people. So I started pitching the idea for a show around two networks back in 2005 for my show, The Healthy Voyager. And it was a little too early in the space they did, but they were way too afraid to take a risk on anything health related. I had a major network say we love the idea, but we don't do healthy. And that's the whole point. We need to have options because at the time the most popular travel shows were either eating bugs in the Amazon we see or eating like a 50 pound burger. And I was like, well, that might be entertaining to watch, but for the consumer and the viewer, this doesn't help them. No one's actively going to travel just to look for these things, you know? So. So I said, you know what? I'm going to launch it on my own because I was a publicist and because I had the film background, I created the show on my own and I launched it on YouTube. And because I couldn't necessarily travel all the time, I I started a little companion blog to do some write ups about places and even local places. And then I started to post my recipes.  [00:12:54] And so what was that original show about? Was it a catchall? Was it just you discussing you interviewing people? You talking about new places to eat? What was the healthy Voyager that first original YouTube series about?  [00:13:09] It was. It was a travel show. So I would travel to places and I would go to Vegan restaurants or find Vegan food at specific restaurants. So that was very, very niche. Now it's I still have the travel show, but it's more adventure based, sustainability based. I do talk about food and some restaurants, but I found that that content is an evergreen because restaurants, clothes, restaurants change. So, you know, some of those old episodes that are still up, it's funny, like none of the restaurants exist. So I thought. And because I started traveling more and getting sponsored more and working with with big brands, I was able to to put together a much more well-rounded show. So I do some really cool things now. It really is more adventure based, culture based. There's still that culinary aspect, but not in the sense of promoting specific Rothera restaurants, because, again, you know, they come and go. So. So, yeah. So I love the show. And then within all this time I had a cooking show, I, I, I watched all kinds of little businesses under the umbrella of the healthy voyageur. But yeah. That the little idea that came from pitching to networks is now my full time job this week. It's 15 years old, at least from the idea with the germ of the idea. When I had it was 2005 and now it's my full time gig and I. I love it.  [00:14:40] Absolutely. So what was kind of your first turning break when you started making you said you started garnering sponsorships and you were developing all these projects. You have a cookbook out. What is the name of your cookbook? It is.  [00:14:54] Is it the Healthy Boyages Global Kitchen?  [00:14:58] There it is. And so when did that come out?  [00:15:02] That came out December of 2011. So next year, I can't believe it'll be 10 years. I'm going to release 10 year anniversary edition and add some more recipes and kind of update it. Yeah.  [00:15:17] Did you have sponsorships prior to that or did they kind of come and go? And do you find, given that you have the PR backing? Are people approaching you? When was that career turn?  [00:15:30] You know, there are a lot of people that have been in industries and they're like at some point people started approaching me.  [00:15:35] Yet that started to happen a little earlier than I had expected. But because I started the brand way before social media even existed, there was no Facebook. There was no Twitter. There was no Instagram. There was nothing. I was kind of screaming into a vacuum. I didn't know who my audience was, but I was building an email list because that was the only way that I could basically chat with my with my audience and fans or anyone that had any questions. So I started a newsletter, and that was my way to keep in contact with people. And then as social media started to grow, I was always an early adopter. So I was able to kind of jump on the bandwagon. Each time a new platform popped up on the ground floor. So but I think I was able. To get ahead of the game, because I was around before that started so early on, because, yes, I was a publicist. I was pitching myself to brands and I was kind of teaching them the new way to market their their product or service before influencers were even a thing because they were using all of their marketing budgets for traditional media. So print media, TV media spots, things like that. And I was saying, hey, for a fraction of that cost, I can create this content for you. I have X amount of eyeballs and viewers and that sort of thing. So I was able to work with brands and kind of teach them a new way of thinking. And then as social media started to pop up, more people started to come to me. And then now their social media agencies that wrangle all the brands and then companies. So it started off early on with me pitching and then people started to find me. And then social media blew up. And and now it's it's me kind of being able to say, oh, I'm not going to work with that brand or this brand. But yeah, it's been a pretty neat evolution, seeing it from its infancy where there was no way to talk to people outside of the traditional pitching. And now it's it's just crazy.  [00:17:48] Well, hindsight's beautiful, too, because you can see that like Winding Road, which at the time is usually just kind of seeming chaotic.  [00:17:55] I think I'm curious with because you've dropped into a little bit about the fact that, you know, you move to L.A. was a very external physical environment that made you health conscious or at least looked towards this fit for Lifebook. But I'm wondering after that and how you would define your Vegan life now, what attributes do you tie into it? And also, what is the differentiation that you make between the terms Vegan and plant based?  [00:18:28] Yeah, well, starting off with that, I say Vegan just because it's easier, I, I like I prefer a plant based because I went plant based. For health purposes, I solely talk about it from a health perspective and a dietary perspective. What I'm consuming, whereas Vegan is the catch all for people who live the lifestyle that have no animal products whatsoever. So how they eat, how they dress, the products they use. And that tends to be people who are more on the animal rights side of veganism. I still identify with that because I. I do love animals. I don't wear animal products. I don't use any cosmetics or beauty products or anything household products that contain any animal products. But that's only because after I realized that it wasn't I wasn't just doing myself a favor eating plant based, that I was helping the environment and helping the animals. That's when I started to realize, oh, I can live this holistic lifestyle that that helps everything, not just me, but I still my number one reason for having done it is for health reasons. So that's why I tend to use plant based, because unfortunately, Vegan tends to have a knee jerk reaction. For most people that is negative. And I, I understand why there. I mean, I find that any extreme lifestyle has there there are loud mouths that kind of ruin it for everybody else, you know. So, you know, be a beat as and be at Crossfade, be whatever it is. Anyone that's evangelical about something tends to kind of leave a bad taste in other people's mouths that are like, oh, that's crazy and cultish, you know? So I get it. I understand the passion behind the hardcore vegans, but I have always led by example. I've never been negative, I've never been preachy. And in fact, I, I have been able to persuade people to become Vegan probably more than most vegans that I can think of, because I've just said, hey, look, I live my life, I travel the world, I. I hang out with people that are not Vegan most of none of my friends. Very few of my friends are actually being. And so I've always been very inclusive. I feel that that's that's why I like the word plant base, because it just sounds so much nicer and approachable, because unfortunately, the word Vegan is a bit of a turnoff, even though now, again, with the hindsight, I would have never imagined how insanely popular it has become.  [00:21:22] Right. Well, and even more so over the past, I thought it was kind of gaining traction.  [00:21:26] And then things like game changers and the certain things have come out that have sent people into the plant pace interest that probably would never have been there throughout X three generations. And what people? Why people come over and how it's defined? I think that for a long time, companies were turning to the term plant base to, like you say, kind of avoid the stigma. However, I've spoken to a couple of Vegan restaurant owners and things like that, particularly overseas, over the past couple of months. And a lot of them are a little disgruntled because people are using the term plant based to include things and items and products, even in stores that are not Vegan. And so they're kind of attaching, you know, plant base has become this new like fortified by the deep fortified. Yeah. And it's it's this concept of saying something healthy without it being healthy, which if you know, a lot of the documentaries and information systems coming out will show you is that that's actually the form of manipulation to the downfall of a product. You know, when you start fortifying something with vitamins, you start actually depleting it of what was originally good for it. And so people saying plant based and kind of taking over that term, there's a lot of fear that it will become molested to the point where it no longer even identifies with being plant based or Vegan. And so I'm wondering, as a cookbook author, do you? You must care a great deal about ingredients and what is going in and and really identifying. But do you think that the term plant based has become manipulated or do you think it's still like a strong avenue for people to trust that it's meaning something? I mean, I think people are identifying something that is more healthy. Fewer ingredients.  [00:23:10] Yeah, I got it. I agree because I remember when everyone started jumping on the natural bandwagon. Everything anything can be labeled natural because there's no regulation. So as long as there's water in the product, they can label it as natural. So it really is misleading for the consumer. And unfortunately. So I actually heard that organic will now be unregulated so people can use that and mislead customers. So I think it is unfortunate that the word plant base, because I do think that it it sounds nicer. I think it is kind of all encompassing. But just because it's plant based doesn't mean it's Vegan. But if it's Vegan, it is always plant based. Right. So I think people just need to be discerning when they're reading labels and what they're getting. But it is unfortunate that people will take something that's good and use it to manipulate the consumer, unfortunately. But absolutely. Yeah. I want to get back.  [00:24:16] Yeah, I do. I do too.  [00:24:17] I like the term and I hope it stays pure. I hope we get some regulatory measures in mind as well, because having something plant based that you turn around and has like yellow number three and it feels deceptive for some reason.  [00:24:29] And I want to get back to something you mentioned about the cookbook you talked about or early on and just kind of starting off the ethos of your career. You talked about really caring about dietary restrictions and, you know, turning to this Vegan way of living and things like that. It really opens you up to people who weren't just Vegan, but people who had all kinds of dietary restrictions, which now is kind of a really big deal for, you know, people who are lactose intolerant or people who have a gluten tolerance and things of that nature. And I'm wondering if as you go about constructing the cookbook, I know it's it's now almost a decade over now, but do you pay special attention because your original focus was dietary restrictions when you go to combine or as a chef when you go to make things like that, do you specifically ask yourself, looking at a dish like what can I exclude or include to make sure that those people with restrictions are included in a certain number of meals? Or is that a consideration that you have?  [00:25:33] Yeah, actually, when I wrote the book, I had that exact thing in mind where I wanted it to be inclusive for as many people as possible. So each recipe has an option for gluten free, low sodium, low sugar. So actually should send you a copy of the book. But there is a little key with little icons, and that's at the top of each page. And then there Asterix at the bottom for the squawks. If you want to make this dish for two specific for nice special diet. So I thought of that early on because I didn't want it again, because I always wanted to be inclusive, not just Vegan. And I actually remember fighting with my publisher because they wanted me. It says right under the heading, right under the title. It says one hundred fifty plant based recipes from around the world. And I fought them on the word plant based versus Vegan because again, my scope was always casting a wider net and being more mainstream versus niche. And I think that's why I've been able to I was always more mainstream. I never started in the Vegan world and, you know, jumped the river. I was always on the other side of the river and figured, well, the vegans will find me anyway. For me, it was much more important to be inclusive of everyone else and and showcase this alternative as an actual alternative. Not not anything that needs to be black and white. Not that you have to completely go vegan or anything like that. I wanted it to be an option for people and to be. Approachable to not turn anyone away. So I'm glad that I I won that battle. Yeah. But what I did. Very inclusive and all the recipes that I make on my site as well. I try to offer. There are some that are kind of difficult to do a certain way. But I would say a good eighty five percent of my recipes can be made to suit any special diet.  [00:27:43] Yeah. And substitutions I think are key. I mean, I really feel and I've I've been Vegan, you know, for over seven years now.  [00:27:52] And so I definitely am a little bit more sage in that. But I think that the first thing that people think is you must live off breads. And then the second I tell them that I'm gluten free, they think you don't need anything. But actually, I think every cuisine and I want to get into this on your site, you kind of get into like a hint towards this, but every cuisine all over the world can be altered. You know, and and made to be whether it's Vegan or gluten free. And there's actually a lot of freedom once you start to just understand the ingredients of that land, like what they you know, I just got back from Fiji and all of my friends said, did you starve? And I said, no, they have cassava, which is like this healthy friend of the potato, which I think potatoes are healthy anyway. But many people here don't like it. And I give them a start to things like that. But cassava is this even healthier big sister of a potato and that all these do they have long beans, which are green beans anyway, once you kind of. And it actually changes your relationship with traveling, you know, as a Vegan, you know, actually cooking and things like that and going places and having these conversations which become education. Introducing the concept of veganism to a Fijian is fascinating. You know, it's a fun time because they'll say, OK. So you don't eat any of that. But do you eat fish, you know? I mean, you climb through almost every single category. And so I want to turn to that with you just because I think your Web site, especially as it as a Voyager is as this site is called the Healthy Voyager. I, I want to get into your experience with traveling and what what determines what bits and pieces you include in the site and therefore your overall brand and how you kind of curate all of it. Can you climb us through, first of all, what the site is intended to do and kind of explain to your viewer?  [00:29:44] Sure. Yeah, it's it's definitely a resource for people and not just people wanting to go on culinary trips. It's geared towards travel destinations around the world. And I showcase the hotels, sustainable activities and services. Obviously, restaurants, tips. And and then I have the recipes. And then I also host lifestyle healthy articles, things like that. I used to do product reviews, but I kind of got away from that just because so many people do that. And I kind of feel like I wanted to to narrow it back down to to boil it down to to the core of what I'm interested in, which is, of course, travel and food. But as far as curating, I travel all the time for work. So it really depends. I cover every place that I go. And some of the times I'm traveling because I'm working with a tourism board or I'm working with a cruise line or I'm working with a local CBB. So it really just depends which I also love because it's never the same thing. Every trip is completely different. Sometimes it's solo travel. Sometimes it's a solo press trip. Sometimes I'm with a group of media. Sometimes I get to bring somebody with me. So it's all very different. And every destination has been quite different in the way that the itineraries have been set. Whether it's by me or in tandem with the tourism board or them setting it up for me entirely. So the scope is always different, but I try to find the most interesting things. I do like to cover some of the, I would say maybe generic things for those travelers who are looking for that. But then I will showcase something that is off the beaten path or a hidden gem. I like a mix and match of that because not everyone I was actually speaking with someone. Yes. Or about yesterday about this. Not everyone is super adventurous. I tend to take quite a few risks and I like I like some crazy adventures. And the the more exotic and kooky and less touristy places, the more I like it. But that's not true for everyone.  [00:32:07] So I like to be able to be of service to everyone and showcase something for every person because everyone has different tastes and needs when it comes to travel. But one of one of the things I've really loved to do, and this has happened more and more, more over the past few years, is do things with locals. Recently I was, well, not too recent, but I was in Finland and I was in the Arctic Circle and this little town called Rovaniemi, and it was late summer and it was absolutely gorgeous. And I met this woman who shows how traditional lap Landis lifestyle was and how she's keeping it alive. And she hosted these really cool classes. She does these really cool art projects and brings people into her home. So she and I went foraging in the forest behind her house and picked lingonberries that went back to her house and made a Vegan lingonberry pie. So for me, that was just an incredible experience. And for her, again, like you were saying, to explain being Vegan to someone who lives off the land in Finland like that is like, what are you talking about?  [00:33:17] But she when we finished the pie, she's like, wow, this is really delicious. And it doesn't taste any different than the one that we would've normally made. So it's so fun to be able to share my knowledge and lifestyle with somebody who wouldn't normally and then vice versa. So I've found that to be the the most special thing that's coming out of what I'm doing now as the show and my brand has evolved.  [00:33:43] Absolutely. Yeah, I think it's true.  [00:33:46] I think that those kinds of interactions and growth opportunities, when I first became Vegan, you know, even the opportunity to call ahead, when you were when I was making reservations towards restaurants that required it and things like that, and then having opening up a dialog with chefs and things was just not pursued with me, you know, to have them reevaluate their craft. Most restaurants with chefs that, you know, where you take reservations and things of that nature, like they're they care. You know, they're artists and they're scientists. They're craft makers. And they really want to explore some of those things.  [00:34:21] And so I've had really good experiences. You know, everyone's had bad. Anytime you come across across an exclusionary lifestyle.  [00:34:29] But I've had some really beautiful opportunities as well. And I think that anytime there's an opportunity to open up a dialog between an industry and an individual or two individuals, it's it's gonna be a good thing. So I always I try to push those stories more. You know, when people get a little bit nervous and the day has come and gone for being nervous about a plant based or Vegan lifestyle, because if anyone has turned on any kind of social, you know, that's where all of us and most definitely our great grandchildren are headed. We cannot sustain the ME Dadri industry. So is not meoh mathematics. This is not my belief anymore. Like they pushed the numbers.  [00:35:05] So coming to light every day.  [00:35:09] Absolutely. So if someone wanted to work with you or get your advice or get your consulting expertize the best way to contact you is it through healthy Voyager, your dot com.  [00:35:20] Yeah, yeah, absolutely, if I can share my emails. Carolyn at the healthy Voyager dot com and I help people in all sorts of ways, from nutrition counseling to personal branding. In fact, right now with them, with our current situation. I've I've been setting up a new website just for my consulting because I just have it kind of as a page on Healthy Boyd Recombinant tends to be buried by all the other content. But I'm launching a Web site that's just going to be for. Consulting and coaching and all the different things that I can help people with from personal PR or business PR menu, recipe development, health and wellness. So I. Because of my nine lives. I have quite a bit of information that I can help people in their transitions in life or setting up new businesses, entrepreneurs, anything like that.  [00:36:21] So I've decided to make that a separate thing from healthy Voyager. And hopefully I'll have that coming soon.  [00:36:29] Absolutely. For everyone listening. You can reach out to her as an as as these things come about. I'm sure that they're updated on her Web site. I want to say thank you so much, Carolyn, for speaking with me today.  [00:36:41] I know it's a crazy time period, and I know you're really busy and I appreciate you taking the time to lend us your wisdom.  [00:36:47] Yes. Thank you so much for having me.  [00:36:49] Absolutely. And for everyone else listening, you can contact her one more time. You've been speaking with Carolyn Scott Hamilton. Her Web site is Healthy Voyager dot com.  [00:36:59] And until we speak again next time. Stay safe and eat clean.

4 Ways To Make Your Podcast Different Starting Today – Episode 098   When you try to please everyone, you end up pleasing no one. Make people take notice. You are an expert at your opinion. Give it to people.   Take a stand.   Pick a side.   Some of the nicest people make the worst podcast hosts. They try to please everyone in the audience. Those people tend to blend into the background and go unnoticed.   I once coached a radio host who was one of the best storytellers I had ever met. When he and I would meet one-on-one for coaching, he would tell me some of the funniest stories I had ever heard. He would tell me stories of his dad that would have me crying from laughing so hard.   He once told me his dad was absolutely convinced the PT Cruiser was the best car ever made. As much as my host would try to explain that the PT Cruiser was basically an incarnation of the Dodge Neon, his father wouldn't believe it.   The two of them would get in these heated arguments in public about this car. Of all the things in life you could argue about, this happened to be the PT Cruiser.   The way the story was told was full of fabulous details. The host really had the ability to make the stories come to life.   As much as I would encourage him, the host would not tell those stories on the radio. He didn't believe the audience as a whole would be interested.   Instead, he played it safe. He only discussed vanilla content that would not upset anyone. Unfortunately, the show never took hold.   Ray Romano is a great example of success stemming from the stories of real life. Ray used stories of his family in his stand-up comedy. That routine eventually became the hit TV show “Everybody Loves Raymond”.   If you are not upsetting someone, you aren't trying hard enough.   I would much rather have half the audience hate me and the other half love me rather than the entire audience have no opinion one way or the other. If the audience doesn't have an opinion, they don't care. I'm doing nothing to stir their emotion if I'm not making them pick a side.   If you haven't picked a side and really focused your topic, people won't care. They will not be passionate about your show.   Speak your mind. Be different. Get noticed. Make people care.   Here are four ways to make your podcast different from other shows in your niche.   Be real. Be yourself. Do no simply try to be an imitation of another show or host. Above all, tell the truth. It is much easier than remembers a character you have created. All people to know you through stories. The details within your stories will reveal who you are. People do business with those that they know, like and trust. This is the first step. Pick a side. Stand for something. That is the only way to stand out. Avoid shades of gray. Be drastically different.   I would love to help you with your podcast. E-mail me any time at Coach@PodcastTalentCoach.com.   You can find my podcast and other tools to help you create great content at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com.     Let's turn your information into engaging entertainment.

10-17-06 It's not a lecture, it's a gift. The Cheapo Company gave me a Dodge Neon and the President asked me to emblazon on his employees' chests a mantra. Bumping is good. This is not about me. A gift from yourself is the best gift of all, because it came from God. Like the Tinman. I'd put God inside me. (show interrupted by a trip to Taco Bell) I got a postcard from someone in my family describing the emotional impact of my non-presence. I've been to this Taco Bell before. My face and name are known. Is there a Creep Festival? They look like they want to stab me in the cheek and steel my tires and sell the rubber. This is not a gift session, it's a lecture. When you threaten a litigation it scares people. More creepy people. is this a homeless convention? Delilah is a hoot and has a son with Polio. Children are not born with diseases that their mothers didn't give them. That woman did that to her child. More scary people. People with ugly faces should not have children. There should be a standard. I am a celebrity but sometimes I just want people to go away, especially people with big noses.

Were talking about patience this morning. Have you run out of that lately? Nobody? A couple of you? Well, Ill just preach to the Roberts then this morning. Learning to wait. He talks in the book about the fourth watch. Jesus walks to the disciples. Its the fourth watch between 3 oclock and 6 oclock in the morning. The storm is still going on. Why did Jesus wait so long? Why not come earlier? Why not calm the storm first before Peter walks on the water? Why not calm the storm before you get to the disciples? Why did He have the storm last? Why did He wait until that late in the night to come, the fourth watch? Because God is obviously trying to teach them something. Hes trying to teach them to learn to wait. We have fourth watch experiences. The Bible is full of fourth watch experiences. Theres Daniel in the lions den. Youd think God would deliver him before he gets in the lions den, right, if youre Daniel? But, God waits until he gets in the lions den. If youre Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, you hope God will deliver you before you get into the fiery furnace, but God waits until theyre in the fiery furnace. If youre Moses, youre hoping that God parts the Sea before the Egyptians get to you, but God waits until the last minute when the Egyptians are right there and the Sea is right on the other side before He parts the water. How many of you have had fourth watch experiences where it seems like God waits until the last possible minute and sometimes even beyond that? Let me see your hands. All right, so Im talking to the right group here. Were going to look at a fourth watch situation here in John 11, if you would turn there. We talk about patience; the truth of the matter is sometimes we are impatient with God. Sometimes before we can gather all the facts, we make assumptions about Gods character. We make assumptions about Gods nature. If God is allowing me to go through this, He couldnt be good. If God is not going to answer my prayers, maybe He doesnt hear, or maybe He doesnt care, or maybe He is not powerful enough to intervene in this situation. Therefore, we make judgment calls. We become impatient with God. We disagree with the way He has worked or what He has done. Anybody here ever made a judgment without getting all the facts? All of us have, right? Its easy to do. Its called an assumption. I wont go there, to the definition of that, but… I definitely demonstrated that a couple of weeks ago when I was driving home. My oldest daughter drives a forest green Dodge Neon. So I saw a forest green Dodge Neon. I dont get close enough to see my daughter, but I know its her, so I start waving at the Dodge Neon going, Hi Honey! Hi Honey! Boy, the look on his face when I got close enough to see him. That was a little embarrassing. I was like, Oh, sorry. He was happy to see me, kind of thing. I heard one even worse than that. A gentleman was woken up at 3 oclock in the morning from a sound sleep. He wakes up; the doorbell is ringing. Its 3 oclock in the morning, and hes saying, This better be important. He goes down the stairs, opens the door, and heres this intoxicated man on his front step. The man says, Yes? The man on the front step replies, Can you give me a pussshh? He says, No, I cant give you a push. Its 3 oclock in the morning. I have to get up early. Besides that, its raining outside. Youre on your own. He closes the door. He goes upstairs. He feels a little bit bad, but come on; he has to take care of himself. He gets into bed, and his wife says, Who was that, honey? Some drunken guy. Well, what did he want? He wanted a push. Did you give him a push? Well, no. Its 3 oclock in the morning. Its raining, and I have to get up early. Silence. Well, you remember, two months ago, we were stranded, and those strangers helped us out by pushing our car off the side of the road. Dont you think you should return the favor? OKAY! he said. He gets out of bed, puts on his shoes and his coat. He goes outside in the dark and the rain and says, Hello, are you still out here? Yes! says the drunk man. Do you still need a push? Yes! said the drunk man. Where are you? he asked. Im over here on your porch swing. Youve got to get the facts, right? If you dont get the facts, youre in trouble. Sometimes we can make judgments without getting all the facts. Were going to find in this story an angry Mary and Martha. Why are they angry? Because Jesus didnt act in a timely manner, and Jesus didnt act in the way that they thought He should. Lazarus, His friend, is sick, and they send an urgent message in Verse 3 of John 11 (page 1063 of pew Bibles), So the sisters sent word to Jesus, Lord, the one you love is sick. The messenger brought this with a sense of urgency. He said, Master, You need to come, Lazarus is very sick. This word means badly sick. Hes not saying, Hey, just wanted to let you know Lazarus has a tummy ache. This is the kind of word that says if you want to see this person again, you better come now. Theyre very sick. These are the kind of words that mean, Hey, if you want to see this person that you love, you better get here right away because they might not last much longer. That kind of urgency, only in this case, its You better come right now because Youre our only hope. Thats what theyre saying to Jesus. We need You because if You would come, You could heal Lazarus, and Youre his only chance, so You need to come right away. Now, one thing the author talked about is Jesus identified with us in so many ways. Hes tempted as we are. Hes part of our human emotions. He gets happy; Hes sad; Hes gone through betrayal and rejection, pain, hunger, thirst, exhaustion, all of those things. But, He was never frantic. Have you noticed that? And he identifies with almost all of our human emotions, except Hes never frantic. Hes never hurried. Hes never out of sorts. Jesus gets this news, and the disciples are expecting a quick exodus, but what does it say in Verse 6? It says, Yet, when He heard that Lazarus was sick, He stayed where He was two more days. Didnt expect that! They expected, Lets go! Come on! Lazarus is sick! We have to get going! Hurry, hurry, hurry!! He does something very unexpected. He waits. Sometimes when we pray, and we want God to move right now. We say, God this is really important. You have to act right now! You have to move! You have to intervene! Go! Go! Go! And He has not moved. He doesnt listen to us! We cant control Him! And that makes us mad. I love Johns [Ortberg] quote in the book. He said, Sometimes we are double espresso followers of a decaf God. Were all hyped up with caffeine, Look at us go! Were following a decaf God. Hes not in a hurry. Were so in a hurry that we want what we want, and we want it now. We cant stand to wait. I remember we wanted to build this building. I wanted it so bad. For years, we were setting up and tearing down every week. What a hassle! You set up all your chairs, and you tear all your chairs down. You set up all your lighting, and you tear all your lighting down. You set up all your sound equipment and you tear all your sound equipment down. You set up your nursery, and you tear it down. You set up your childrens church, and you tear that down. In the wintertime, the heat doesnt work half the time. In the summertime, theres no air conditioning. It smelled musty. We wanted to use the building at other times, and theyd say we couldnt. We just wanted our own building so bad. At one point, I was like, God, I dont understand. Why cant you provide this now? Then, I came to our board and said, Guys, why dont we just sell the back acres that we wont need and just build on this front end? Why dont we just mortgage our future so we can have a building now? Needless to say, that didnt go over real well. And thank God it didnt, right? Because were getting ready to build. By the way, since December, January, February, the last three months, this body has given about one quarter of a million dollars to ministry, $246,000 in the last three months. Praise God for that! In the last two months, weve knocked off $50,000 principal on this building in January, and then we just did it again! Its possible we could get this thing paid for this year and get going, so keep it up. Keep it up! So, thats a praise. But, the board said, No, we cant sell our future. And sometimes we want to do that. Im reminded of a scene from Willy Wonka. Do you remember Veronica Salt? Remember her? Spoiled Veronica. She wants what she wants, and she wants it now. Im not going to ask for a raise of hands this morning. Weve all had our share of being Veruca Salt, havent we? God, youre supposed to meet my demands the way I want it, when I want it, and how I want it; and if I dont get the things Im after, Im going to scream! Im going to throw a fit because I know best! One of the marks of maturity in the life of a believer is when we come to not only recognize Gods sovereignty but to celebrate Gods sovereignty. Gods sovereignty means that He is in control, and we are not. Lets look again at the story. Jesus now comes to Bethany, and Lazarus has already passed away. In Verse 21, Martha confronts the Lord. You remember Martha, dont you? She was the same one who confronted Jesus before when Mary was sitting at His feet while she was doing all the household chores. She says, Lord, dont you care that she is just sitting here while Im doing all the work? Jesus says, Martha, Martha, Martha. So, theres another Martha moment here. Shes always correcting Jesus; she always knows better. Shes got some control issues. She says, Lord, if you had been there, my brother would not have died. Shes trying to cast a little guilt complex onto the Lord. This is all Your fault. Weve done that. Were guilty of that. Lord, this is Your fault. If You would have answered the prayers I gave, this wouldnt have happened. If You would have done it at the time I… If You would have given me what I wanted when I wanted it, this wouldnt have happened. So, Martha tries to lecture the Lord, If You had been here… Who can blame her? Its the truth. If Jesus had come sooner, Lazarus would not have died, but God had other plans. She needed to trust His sovereignty. In Verse 22, She says, But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask. Thats sovereignty. I know that even now, God will give you whatever you ask. We had a definition of peace last week. Do you remember what it was? Peace is not the absence of conflict but the presence of Christ. Ill give you a working definition of patience: Patience is a calm assurance based on a certain knowledge that God is in control. Romans 8:28, God causes all things to work together for good. How many things? All things to work together for good. For everybody? Those who love Him are called according to His purpose. I heard a story about a woman who had a very dear handkerchief that had great sentimental value to her. She became careless with it. She put a pen in her pocket on the handkerchief, and the ink from the pen made a big stain or a big blotch. A friend of hers who was a very well known, very respected artist saw the handkerchief and said, It just breaks my heart. This has such sentimental value to me, and Ive ruined it. Ive destroyed it. The artist said, Well, why dont you let me have the handkerchief? She said, I guess so. Its of no value to me anymore. I was too careless with it. So she gave the artist her handkerchief. A few days later she got it back. The artist had taken that ink spot in the middle of her handkerchief and used it as the base of his design and formed a design around it, incorporating the ink spot. It became more beautiful than it ever was before, more valuable than it ever was before, and more dear than it ever was before. Not only was it this meaningful handkerchief, but now her artist friend had made it even more significant and valuable to her and returned it to her. Thats the way God works. He takes the carelessness of our lives, the ink blots, the stains, and we say, Lord, Ive made a mess of this. I really messed this up. God, Im going to give it to you, and we trust His sovereignty. He can take that ink blot, and He can begin to make something beautiful out of it. Thats His promise. Only God can do that. You and I cant do that. We have to trust when we encounter those storms in our lives, when we encounter those fourth watch experiences of our lives, that God is up to something wonderful in our lives. See, patience is not just sitting back and doing nothing. Patience is doing everything you can and trusting God to take care of the rest. Martha did everything she knew to do. She sent word to Jesus. She prayed. She took care of Lazarus the best she could, and she waited. Ephesians 6 says, Having done everything to stand firm… what? Stand firm, therefore. Having done everything to stand firm, having done everything you know to do, thats when you wait and trust that in Gods time and in Gods way, Hes going to take care of it. Hell do it in a way thats for your best interest and for His glory. Janet [Pascal] has come to sing a song that talks about the fact that God is up to something good in our lives. (_________________) Thirdly, we respect His wisdom. He [John Ortberg] wants us to take a look at the 38th verse of that chapter. Jesus is now at the tomb of His friend Lazarus who has passed away. It says, Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance. Take away the stone, he said. But, Lord, said Martha, the sister of the dead man, by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days. Again, Martha takes issue with Jesus. Again, she disagrees with His wisdom. She thinks thats a bad idea. Then Jesus said, Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God? So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. I know that You always hear Me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that You sent Me. When He had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, Lazarus, come out! The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, Take off the grave clothes and let him go. In mans wisdom, the best thing to do would have been to heal Lazarus before he died, correct? Save the heartache; save the pain, none of this coming in the fourth watch of the night sort of thing. Dont let Lazarus suffer anymore. Dont make us suffer by watching him suffer. Dont make us go through the agony of death and the loss of our brother, our friend. Heal him now! Thats what human wisdom says, but Jesus allowed him to physically die. Roll away the stone! No, thats not a good idea! You think Martha learned to respect the wisdom of Jesus after this scenario? See, our human wisdom, our rationale, well, lets look at it after what happened with God, the way God did it. Jesus had taught in this chapter, I am the Resurrection and the Life. After Lazarus rises again from the dead, do you think that phrase took on a new meaning to her? I am the resurrection and the life? Talk about an object lesson, right? Its one thing to say, I am the Resurrection and Life; you can kind of understand what that means; but then watching Him say the word and speak life to a dead man. Then you see that dead man come out; I really understand that scripture now, that You werent kidding, were You? You are the Resurrection and the Life. Secondly, think of all the people that benefited. If Lazarus would have been healed before he died, Mary and Martha and Lazarus would have known about it, and they would have celebrated. But now, just think of all the people who were there who witnessed this miracle. Think of all the hundreds of people who came to Christ that day because of what happened. Think of all the generations of believers who had been moved and blessed and understood the truth that He is the Resurrection and the Life through the recounting of the story of the resurrection of Lazarus. How many millions of believers have been touched because God did it His way? Do you think Mary and Marthas faith was strengthened after the resurrection of Lazarus? Hello? Talk about faith thats now off the charts! Whatever You say, were going to do! We know You are who You say You are, and You can do what You say You can do. They have faith that is off the charts because Jesus did it His way. They didnt trust His way; they trusted their way. They were angry at Him, but He was sovereign. He knew what He was doing. So often, we think we know, but our knowledge is so limited. I was watching a television program this week. You have to take turns. Its one way to a happy marriage. Sometimes you have to put on sports; most times you have sports on; but sometimes you have to watch what she wants to watch. What she likes to watch is medical shows, not like E.R. She likes the real stuff, like gross operations and emergency room shows. So were watching the Discovery Channel, and theyre telling this story about a motorcycle rider who ran into a tree. The branch of the tree broke off and went into his head. When he came into the ER, he had this tree coming out of his head. It was sticking out of his helmet, and he didnt know how bad it was. It had leaves on it and twigs, everything. He was walking in there. They had to go get the gardener to bring his shears to the emergency room. I bet that was a peculiar call, Hey, we need you in surgery. Can you bring those clippers with you? He was like, Okay?!? So, they clipped the tree, they take his helmet off, and they say, Whoa! Look at this thing! It went in here and came out up here and went out his head. He had no idea the severity of it, and neither did they. The first thing they had to do was get some X-Rays. They would have to see if this thing hit something important in there and what would happen if they tried to pull it out. Do you know what he wanted to do? He wanted to take matters into his own hands. He even tried to take it out. He said, Cant I just take this out? Get this out of my head! They would grab his hands and put them down. Trust us! Later on, when he understood the severity of it, when he began to realize this thing was sticking out of his head and maybe he could lose his life, he began to panic and say, I want to get it out now! The doctors were basically saying, Look, you trusted us enough to come in here. Trust us enough to fix the problem. Trust our wisdom. Trust that we know what we are doing. Sure enough, they found out that luck was with this guy. The tree had missed everything important inside there, any artery or anything that would have affected his breathing. He got lucky. So they were able to take the branch out of his head and stitch him up. He put his helmet back on and rode his motorcycle away from the hospital. Believe it…or not. That was an amazing story. But I thought about that guy as I was preparing this message, and I thought, Isnt that us sometimes? We have these intrusions and obstacles in our lives, and we give it to God, and God doesnt do it as quickly as we want Him to. We dont agree with His procedures, so were tempted to just say, Let me take care of it myself! We dont even realize the damage we could cause, how we could complicate the matter even more. Weve done that. You and I have all done that. Weve all failed to recognize or celebrate Gods sovereignty and said, Im going to control. I know better. Instead of respecting His wisdom, we take matters into our own hands, and we make things worse. How many times have we dealt with situations where a couple wants a divorce? Or we have a believing spouse that is married to a non-believing spouse, and he or she just wants out. We take them to 1 Corinthians 7, and we say, "You know what?" Gods word says, If youre a believing spouse, and youre married to a non-believing spouse, dont divorce them. You dont know, Paul says, whether God can use you to bring your husband [or wife] to salvation. Theyll argue with you. They know better. Their wisdom knows better. Ill say, Look, Ive seen marriages where there has been adultery, marriages where there has been alcoholism, marriages where one spouse doesnt know the Lord, and God-over time-has worked a miracle there. Those couples have strong, happy marriages now. They will argue with you. They dont care what Gods word says. They want out now. They know better than God. The opposite is couples that want to shack up, and [they think] its okay, Well just live together. Gods word says thats wrong. Well, show me where it says that is wrong in Gods Word. Youll show them, and theyll get mad at you! Youre like, Look, I didnt write this stuff. Im just telling you what it says. Theyll say, Well, we know better than that. Our wisdom is greater than that. Friends, anytime you think your wiser than God, youre in trouble. Youre in big trouble. Youre heading for a fall. Youre in for a crash. Come to the place in our lives where we trust His timing. Im not saying we understand His timing. Im not saying we ever get to the point where we like the fourth watch appearances. I dont think that will ever happen. I think we always want the waters parted before we have to step into the water. I think we would rather be spared the lions den or the fiery furnace if at all possible. Its just like Mary and Martha if they could have been spared the loss of their brother, but Gods way was the best. We come to the point where we celebrate His sovereignty and say, Thank God Youre in control and not me because when I mess up my life with the ink stains and blotches of my life, only You can turn this into something wonderful, God, so Im going to allow you to. Im going to respect Your wisdom because Your wisdom is higher than mine. Nowhere is that demonstrated more powerfully than the cross. Think about the cross. The cross was a place of defeat, and God in His wisdom and His sovereignty turned it into a place of victory. The cross was a place of despair, and God turned it into a place of hope. The cross was a place of death. Its where people go to die, and now its a reminder of the resurrection and the life. Only God can do that. The disciples said, Thats it. His voice is silenced. Our cause is gone. Its lost. Evil has triumphed over good. Sin has triumphed over righteousness. God in His sovereignty, God in His timing, God in His wisdom, turns something bad into the greatest event in the history of mankind: The resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ. If you can trust your life into His hands, you can trust your circumstances into His hands, you can trust His wisdom. When you come across the obstacles and intrusions in your life, dont take the matters into your own hands. Dont say, Just let me take care of this. You might be the person who put that there in the first place. Let Him work it out for you. Lets pray together. Father, as we prepare to receive communion, it is a reminder to us of Your wisdom, of Your sovereignty, of Your goodness. Forgive us for the time when we have judged You. We have made assessments without gathering all the facts, and because You did not answer in the way we expected You to, Lord, or how we expected You to, or when we expected You to, we have made judgments about You. We have said, Youre not good; or Youre not caring; or Youre not powerful enough; or Youre not listening to us. Lord, those judgments were unfair. Youve already demonstrated Your goodness, Your kindness and Your love. Help us to come to the place where we celebrate Your sovereignty, that You are in control and not us. Help us come to the place where we respect Your wisdom. Lord, Im convinced that was the last time Martha ever questioned You, the last time she ever became angry at Your actions or Your inactions. Lord, help us to do everything we can, everything we know to do, and having done all to stand firm-stand firm therefore. Wait upon You. I pray for the ones who are in a fourth watch experience even now, that they would trust in Your goodness; they would trust that Romans 8:28 is for them as well. I pray this in Jesus name, Amen.
