AI in Entertainment: Essential Insights for Actors The world of acting is evolving, and one of the most significant changes affecting performers today is the rise of artificial intelligence (AI). From digital likenesses to synthetic voices, AI is reshaping the entertainment industry at an unprecedented pace. If you're an actor, understanding how AI impacts your career is no longer optional—it's essential. In a recent episode of the Acting Business Bootcamp Podcast, hosts Peter Pamela Rose and Mandy Fisher sat down with Erik Passoja, a SAG-AFTRA leader and digital identity advocate, to break down everything actors need to know about AI, contracts, and protecting their digital identity. The Rise of AI in Acting AI technology is advancing rapidly, and its effects on performers are profound. Whether it's through deepfake technology, voice synthesis, or motion capture, AI is being used in new ways that could impact actors' careers and livelihoods. Without proper regulations, AI could allow companies to use an actor's likeness, voice, or movements indefinitely—without additional compensation. Key AI-related concerns for actors: Digital likeness rights AI-generated voices Deepfake manipulation Contract loopholes allowing indefinite use Residuals and monetization concerns Actors must stay vigilant and informed about how their image and voice are used in the industry. Read Your Contract: The #1 Rule for Actors Erik Passoja couldn't stress this enough: Read your contract! Many performers unknowingly sign agreements that grant companies rights to their voice and likeness in perpetuity. This is particularly concerning for non-union actors, who may have fewer legal protections. If you're a performer, here's what you need to do: ✅ Check for AI clauses in any contract you sign. ✅ Seek legal advice if anything seems unclear. ✅ Understand how your likeness and voice will be used before signing. ✅ If you're non-union, be extra cautious—you may have little legal recourse. Even union actors must be aware of the nuances of SAG-AFTRA agreements related to AI. While protections have been put in place, ongoing advocacy is needed to strengthen them further. Erik Passoja's Activision Case Study: A Real-Life Example Erik shared his own experience with AI exploitation in the gaming industry. After working on Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, he discovered that his likeness had been repurposed without additional compensation. His digital image was used in ways he never agreed to, and because of the contract he signed, he had no legal recourse. His story highlights a growing problem: AI technology is advancing faster than legal protections. Actors must take charge of their own digital identity by being proactive, informed, and careful about what they sign. AI & Union Protections: What You Need to Know SAG-AFTRA has implemented AI protections in recent contracts, but there's still work to be done. New legislation is being proposed to further safeguard performers, ensuring that companies cannot exploit their digital identity without consent or compensation. Some of the latest AI-related regulations include: Watermarking AI-generated content to track digital use Informed consent laws for AI usage in entertainment Stronger residual structures for AI-generated performances As AI becomes more prevalent, SAG-AFTRA continues to negotiate protections that will benefit all performers. Staying informed about these updates is crucial. How to Protect Yourself as an Actor in the AI Era

Why Indifference is Dangerous Erosion of Empathy: How global apathy desensitizes societies, leading to increased tolerance of violence and human rights abuses. Normalization of Violence: When people ignore or downplay genocide, it sets a dangerous precedent that violence is acceptable. The continuous exposure to violence without meaningful accountability results in its normalization. When health workers are shot or bombed while trying to save lives, or journalists are targeted and killed for reporting the truth, it signals that violence has crossed boundaries without retribution. The systematic killing of babies and young children in violent conflicts is perhaps the most egregious manifestation of this normalization; it shows a blatant disregard for the sanctity of life and strips away the most fundamental human protections. In the context of Palestine, reports have documented hospitals being bombed and medical teams becoming victims while carrying out their duties. These targeted acts erode the protective norms once safeguarded by international law. The murder of journalists, whose role is to inform and foster accountability, further compounds this normalization. When society accepts that those who seek to bear witness to injustice are silenced, it removes a critical check against abuses of power. Political and Social Impact: Governments may be less inclined to intervene or provide aid if public pressure is absent. Indifference significantly influences political and social responses to genocidal acts and systemic violence. When governments and political leaders sense a lack of widespread public outcry, they are less motivated to intervene, push for ceasefires, or provide humanitarian aid. Public pressure has historically played a vital role in galvanizing political action, as seen in movements against apartheid or during genocides where swift intervention saved lives. In the absence of global attention and pressure, political entities may choose strategic silence over advocacy, especially when geopolitical interests or alliances come into play. This can embolden oppressive regimes to continue acts of violence with little fear of international repercussions. The targeting of babies, medics, and journalists starkly illustrates that when these acts are met with a muted response, the world risks legitimizing not just the violence itself but the broader framework that allows these tragedies to unfold unchecked. The Psychology of Apathy People might choose to ignore such events, including cognitive dissonance, information fatigue, and the "bystander effect." Political bias, media framing, and the polarization of public opinion contribute to selective attention or indifference, influencing public perception and governmental response. Media portrayal, distance, and perceived powerlessness can contribute to this indifference. The Moral Responsibility of Awareness Being informed is the first step toward empathy and action. Staying updated and informed humanizes distant conflicts and helps break down the psychological barriers that lead to apathy. Spreading awareness through conversations, social media, and educational programs can lead to increased pressure on policymakers. Awareness doesn't just stop at the individual level; it can influence wider circles and inspire collective action. Sharing verified information through conversations, social media, and educational platforms can amplify underrepresented voices and force policymakers to take action Find impactful campaigns and organizations that focus on genocide awareness and prevention. Engaging with these groups or supporting them through donations and volunteer work can make a tangible difference. Making invisible suffering visible is a powerful method to combat complacency. Real-World Implications This apathy has practical consequences. Medical professionals working under fire lose their lives, leading to healthcare crises where people die not from their initial injuries but from the lack of medical intervention. Journalists' deaths mean fewer voices calling attention to the truth, leaving global citizens reliant on diluted or biased narratives. The lives of babies cut short disrupt the very hope and future of affected communities. The cumulative silence signals that the rules protecting civilians and those working to help them can be violated without consequences. What Can We Do? Educate Yourself and Others: Resources for learning about ongoing and past genocides. Amplify Voices: Support and share stories of survivors and those affected. Support Organizations: Talk about reputable charities and groups that work to stop genocide and assist victims. Advocacy and Political Engagement: The importance of writing to representatives or joining campaigns that push for action. Remember: Apathy toward genocide doesn't just affect those far away—it impacts global stability, human rights, and our collective humanity. Thank you for tuning in. xoxo

Provide Support to Organizations: Engage with and support organizations dedicated to helping abused and foster children, whether through donations, volunteering, or raising awareness. Seek Legal Advice: If you're contemplating foster care, seeking legal advice can help you navigate the complexities of the process if questions or concerns arise on behalf of the child's rights.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes a deep dive into the concept of "social voting" and how it's become a growing trend in recent years. With celebrities and influencers like Taylor Swift (Amazon Affiliate Link) swaying public opinion, it's more important than ever to understand the dangers of letting social influence dictate your voting decisions. We'll discuss the five major risks associated with social voting and provide five actionable steps you can take to educate yourself and make voting choices that truly align with the U.S. Constitution and your personal values. Understanding Social Voting: Social voting refers to the growing trend of making voting decisions based on the influence of celebrities, social media, and popular culture rather than on informed, independent research. We'll discuss how this phenomenon has gained traction and why it's becoming a significant concern for democratic processes. Five Major Dangers of Social Voting: Influence of Unqualified Voices: Allowing celebrities like Taylor Swift—who may not face the same daily realities as average Americans—to sway your vote can lead to decisions that don't reflect your own needs or the country's best interests. Echo Chambers on Social Media: Social media platforms often reinforce existing beliefs, making it difficult to hear diverse perspectives and think critically about important issues. Voting Based on Popularity, Not Policy: When voting is influenced by popularity rather than policy, it can lead to the election of candidates who are ill-equipped to serve in office. Erosion of Critical Thinking: Relying on social influence diminishes the practice of researching and understanding the issues and candidates, leading to uninformed decisions. Undermining Constitutional Values: Social voting can result in decisions that do not align with the principles of the U.S. Constitution, potentially threatening the country's foundational values. Five Steps to Educate Yourself and Vote Intelligently: Research Candidates and Policies: Look beyond social media and celebrity endorsements. Read up on candidates' platforms, past actions, and how their policies align with the U.S. Constitution. Understand the Constitution: Familiarize yourself with the U.S. Constitution and how it applies to current issues. Knowing your rights and the country's legal framework is crucial for making informed voting decisions. Seek Diverse Opinions: Engage with a variety of news sources and perspectives. This helps you see the full picture and avoid getting trapped in an echo chamber. Fact-Check Information: Verify the accuracy of what you hear from celebrities or see on social media. Use reliable fact-checking sites to ensure you're not being misled by false information. Vote Based on Values, Not Influence: Focus on what matters most to you—whether it's economic policy, national security, or social justice—and choose candidates who align with your values and the Constitution, rather than being swayed by popularity. The Role of Media Literacy: We'll discuss how media literacy plays a vital role in navigating the flood of information (and misinformation) during election season. Understanding how to critically evaluate what you read and hear is essential for making informed choices. Encouraging Others to Think Independently: Finally, we'll explore how you can encourage friends and family to avoid social voting and make independent, informed decisions. Sharing your knowledge and promoting critical thinking within your community can help create a more informed electorate. Join us as we unpack the dangers of social voting and provide you with the tools you need to make educated, constitutionally aligned choices in the 2024 elections. Whether you're new to voting or a seasoned participant, this episode is packed with valuable insights to help you navigate the election season with confidence and integrity.

In this episode, we explore an engaging teaching exercise designed to help children understand the concepts of challenge and perseverance. A teacher sets out pieces of paper on the floor, guiding a young boy to give him a high five by stepping only on those papers. As the exercise progresses, the teacher gradually removes pieces of paper, increasing the distance the boy must jump to reach his goal. Each attempt illustrates the importance of overcoming obstacles and adapting to more challenging situations. The moral of the story emphasizes that while goals may become harder to reach, persistence and creativity can lead to success.

A recent podcast episode illustrates this concept through a relatable analogy involving a teacher and a group of elementary school children. The teacher lays out pieces of paper on the floor, and the students must step only on these papers to reach the teacher for a high five. This exercise serves as a metaphor for how we can approach large goals by breaking them down into smaller, manageable steps. The Analogy of the Pieces of Paper The pieces of paper represent smaller goals or milestones that lead to the ultimate objective—giving the teacher a high five. Initially, the papers are placed close together, making it easy for the child to step from one to the next. As the exercise progresses, the teacher removes some pieces of paper, increasing the distance between the remaining ones. This change illustrates how, as we strive for larger goals, we may encounter obstacles that make the journey more challenging. When faced with a larger gap to jump, it becomes evident that without the smaller steps (the pieces of paper), reaching the final goal becomes significantly more difficult. This analogy can be applied to various life goals, such as: Achieving a big house: Instead of focusing solely on the end goal of homeownership, one can break it down into smaller steps like saving for a down payment, improving credit scores, and researching neighborhoods. Pursuing a professional sports career: Aspiring athletes can set smaller goals such as improving specific skills, participating in local leagues, and seeking coaching. Building a music career: Musicians can focus on smaller milestones like writing songs, performing at local venues, and networking within the industry. The Importance of Small Goals in Climate Change The podcast emphasizes that the same principle applies to addressing climate change. The challenge of combating climate change can feel insurmountable, leading to feelings of confusion and helplessness. However, by breaking down the larger goal of reducing climate change into smaller, actionable steps, individuals can contribute meaningfully to the cause. Steps to Take Look Inward: Start by assessing personal habits and making changes to reduce individual carbon footprints, such as minimizing plastic use and opting for reusable products. Get Involved Locally: Engage with local organizations focused on environmental conservation. This could involve volunteering for clean-up events or supporting community initiatives aimed at sustainability. Educate Yourself and Others: Stay informed about climate issues and share knowledge with friends and family. Understanding the science behind climate change can empower individuals to take action. Advocate for Change: Support policies and politicians that prioritize environmental protection. Voting for representatives who align with conservation values is crucial for systemic change. Participate in Community Projects: Join or initiate local projects that aim to address climate issues, such as tree planting, habitat restoration, or educational programs about sustainability. Conclusion The journey to achieving large goals, particularly in the context of climate change, requires patience and persistence. Just as the child in the podcast must step on each piece of paper to reach the teacher, individuals must take small, deliberate steps to make a difference. By recognizing that progress is made through incremental achievements, we can collectively work towards a healthier planet. Each small action contributes to the larger goal, and together, we can create meaningful change in the fight against climate change.

She wrote the book "Three Word Meetings." Lisa coaches leaders on creating sales and business meetings with fun and interesting 3-word topics to create a conversation and inspire your sales team. Episode 233: One Key to Creating More Luck in Sales! There is one thing that top performers do better than their competitors to create more Luck, they Focus! Focus: The One Key to Creating More Luck in Sales In sales, where every strategy and technique claims to be the beacon of success, one underlying principle significantly increases your chances of converting that big client—Focus. If you're in sales, marketing, or entrepreneurship, you're no stranger to the pursuit of Luck and the desire to secure that big win. But does it just come down to Luck? Or is there something more within your control that can lead to consistent sales success? Focus is the answer, and I will show you why and how to harness it to tip the scales in your favor. Why Focus? The common misconception is that Luck in sales is just a byproduct of playing the numbers game. But ask any seasoned sales professional, marketing executive, or successful entrepreneur—they will tell you that their 'lucky streak' is often a direct result of razor-sharp Focus. It starts with understanding your market, knowing your product inside and out, personalizing your approach, and listening to your clients. When you channel your energy into these focused efforts, you carve out a path where opportunities will likely land in your lap. Call it Luck or call it strategy; the results are undeniable. How do you cultivate Focus in your sales efforts? It begins with focusing on the right activities. Please look at your calendar for this week and count the number of new client meetings, followed by the number of meetings with your current clients. If you're unhappy with that number, you have to focus your efforts and time on scheduling more discovery calls. What can you do to create more Focus? Identify and Understand Your Target Audience Research who benefits the most from your product. Many of us are calling on new clients who don't have the resources or are not fit for your product or service. Let's eliminate those prospects from our Focus. Identify the prospects who fit your ideal customer. Tailor your sales solutions to address your prospective clients' needs and pain points. Educate Yourself on Every Aspect of Your Product or Service A deep knowledge of what you're selling instills confidence in your prospects and positions you as an expert. Customers are more inclined to trust and buy from someone who can articulate the benefits of their offering. Prioritize Your Day Each morning, review your day. Make sure most of your time is spent meeting new prospects, meeting with current clients, or seeking introductions from your current clients or your network of friends. Be Persistent and Consistent Success in sales usually takes time. Only 5-15% of prospects we call on today may need our product or service. We maintain regular contact with prospects, follow up diligently, and stay consistent. Persistence fuels Luck by keeping you top-of-mind when a customer is ready to decide. Learn and Adapt from Each Interaction After each sale or missed opportunity, evaluate what worked and what didn't. Use this information to refine your approach. Over time, these incremental changes can significantly improve your sales luck. Creating more Luck in sales is less about chance and more about strategic Focus. You can generate your own Luck by defining and immersing yourself in your target audience, becoming an expert on your product, and systematically pursuing your sales goals. The diligent preparation, unwavering dedication to your craft, and intelligent allocation of your efforts lay the groundwork for those moments when everything seems to fall into place—the moments we attribute to Luck. In the end, remember you're taking the wheel instead of just riding along when you focus. You're navigating towards success—not simply waiting for it to happen. Make the word focus your mantra, and watch as 'luck' becomes a regular appointment on your calendar. Happy selling and Focus may be the driving force behind your next closed deal. If you know someone who could use a little more Focus, share it with them. If there is a topic you would like me to discuss, private message me. Create engaging sales meetings in minutes!

"I'm just going to make it through the holidays" "I think I can hang on a little bit longer" "It's just not the right time." There's no good time to get divorced. But there's (of course) a TON of reasons that come into consideration when someone decides when to file.

Listen to this show, ask questions..join our private communites. 2- TALK TO AN ATTORNEY. In most cases, you don't need to hire someone until you're ready to file, but you should certainly start the interview process. Remember, we suggest you interview 3 attorneys before hiring someone. 3-START PAYING MORE ATTENTION TO MONEY. We're talking about money coming in and money going out. (see our previous episodes about $$ to get more guidance here) 4-THERAPY. Get your butt in therapy. Now. In fact, stop this podcast and go. You deserve support and BTW, so do your kids. In fact, the waitlsits right now for childrens' therapists are INSANE so start doing research now and get on those lists for therapists that would right to help your family.

In this episode host Peterson Toscano guides us through an exploration of the role forests play in addressing the causes and impacts of climate change, both in urban and rural settings. Six guests provide personal narratives, expert insights, and actionable strategies that will inform and inspire climate advocates. This episode also delves into Pennsylvania's rich forest history, from its old-growth forests to modern-day conservation efforts, highlighting the legacy of sustainable stewardship by its original inhabitants. Toscano notes, "PA has a legacy of being one of the more heavily-wooded states in the USA... But If you walk through the over 15 million acres of forests in Pennsylvania, only 1% of that is original old growth forest." This fact highlights the dramatic changes our landscapes have undergone and the need for renewed focus on forest conservation. Creating a Campus Food Forest If you want to make a difference on your own campus or in your community, students at Allegheny college have an answer for you. A Food Forest. Ashlynn Peachey, Nicholas Waddington, and Katie Mallory, students at Allegheny College talk about their pioneering Food Forest project. Ashlynn Peachey: "It really started when one student years ago came to Allegheny College with a passion for permaculture... We like to look around the college landscape and see, not what it is, but what it can be." That student, Sebastian McRae, helped to found a campus Sustainable Design Team. Nicholas Waddington, describes their project: "A food forest is a diverse planting... it provides a lot of climate and ecosystem services." He emphasizes the symbiotic relationship between different plant species and their collective role in enhancing ecosystem health. It was at the Northeast Student Farmer Conference held at Penn State University that CCR host, Peterson Toscano attended the students' breakout group about their successes in building campus support for the Food Forest. During the presentation they explain the steps they took to engage stakeholders, to design the Food Forest and to follow through once the project was approved. Their story is a testament to the power of collaborative efforts and the importance of gaining community support. Nicholas Waddington: "From our combined years of engagement with this project, we've really taken away that climate and campus resilience is hugely community-driven... We're stronger and more productive when we work together." In this episode you will learn about sustainable agriculture and permaculture, (a word Bill Mollison coined,) and how you can replicate their success on your own campus or community. Raising the Awareness of a Healthy Forest Sustainability Legacy and our Responsibility Today Former forester and coal miner, Van Wagner, now teaches Agriculture Science at the Area High School in Danville, Pennsylvania. He is also a singer/songwriter and storyteller. Van Wagner offers a historical perspective, emphasizing the longevity of sustainable practices. "I laugh when I read in my textbook, and in the textbook it says that the environmental movement began in 1970 with the first Earth Day... That's not when it started. My German ancestors here in the Susquehanna River Valley, they knew about sustainability, you didn't ruin the family farm, you didn't cut all the trees down." -Van Wagner In order to increase efforts to maintain and protect forests in the US Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Van has committed himself to visiting the highest point in the 67 counties and climbing the tallest tree he can find. Van explains, I'm trying to get the press's attention. And when they stick a microphone in my face, I talk about trees and forestry.” You can follow his progress on the site Van Wagner Highest Climbs. Also, see him climbing in videos on his YouTube channel. Expanding the Legacy of Tree Growing in Small Country Towns and Big Cities Forests and Climate Change: Urban Renewal and Rural Stewardship Taylor Lightman grew up in the Borough of Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, (population 5232) “a delightfully cozy little town nestled on the banks, the Susquehanna River, one of the oldest river valleys in the world, older than the Nile.” He then went to college in Northfield, Minnesota and then to grad school in Lund, Sweden where he completed a Master's in disaster risk management and climate change adaptation. Today Taylor is the program Manager for Lewisburg Neighborhoods. He says, “I'm trying to figure out a way to do climate smart neighborhood revitalization. I think there's no better place to do that than in one's hometown” In this episode Taylor talks about the importance of growing trees in towns and cities. "Trees are doing a lot of things for us. Streets with trees on them, the shops do better...people are driving on streets and roads with trees, they behave less aggressively too." His insights reveal the extensive benefits of urban trees beyond just environmental impact. Nerd Corner Dana Nuccitelli considers the question: what are the different ways we would benefit from planting more trees in cities and towns? This question is critical to CCLs healthy forest policy area. In regards to addressing the causes of climate change, Dana says, "Planting more urban trees in the U.S. has the potential to capture up to 100 million tons of carbon dioxide pollution per year." But wait there's more! Urban tree planting offers multifaceted benefits, enhancing climate resilience, physical and mental health, and fostering active lifestyles and community well-being. And there is important work for us to do. Dana says, "But while people in communities with more trees live longer, happier, healthier lives on average, America has a tree inequity problem. Communities of color have 33% less tree canopy on average than majority white communities." To learn more Dana encourages you to visit Check TreeEquityScore.org to see where tree planting would be the most effective in your community to remedy this tree inequity problem.

Welcome to our comprehensive guide to real estate investing – the ultimate ticket to financial freedom! Whether you're new to the game or looking to expand your investment horizons, you're in the right place. So let's dive right in! --> READ THE BLOG POST HERE https://myempirepro.com/blog/real-estate-investing --> WATCH VIDEO VERSION HERE https://youtu.be/zHrQUBpkE7g You've probably heard about investment portfolios – those magical collections of assets that can help you ride the wave of financial success. Well, guess what? Real estate is your golden ticket to building wealth that's more stable than your grandma's rocking chair. Now, imagine your investment portfolio as a delicious blend of stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and, of course, the superstar of them all – real estate! Balancing potential returns and risks is the name of the game here. And speaking of real estate, it's more than just cozy homes. It's an umbrella that covers everything from skyscrapers to warehouses. Think of it like a puzzle – you've got the land, the buildings, and all those little improvements that make it shine. Yep, improvements – those upgrades that boost a property's value and charm. It's like giving your home a stylish makeover. And guess what? This concept applies to both your cozy single family homes and that sleek commercial building downtown. Now, when it comes to real estate, we're not just talking about land – we're talking about the whole package. Imagine the land as the canvas and the structures as the masterpiece that's painted upon it. And here's the scoop: real estate investing is the flavor of the season. You can finally say goodbye to inflation worries and hello to boosting your net worth like a pro! And guess what? Real estate is no pushover. It's not just holding its ground over time; it's giving other investments a run for their money. Stocks, cryptocurrencies, forex – they're all in the ring, but real estate? It's the heavyweight champion! Let's break it down with some numbers, shall we? So, stocks might dance around 7% average annual return, but real estate? It's got its own rhythm, averaging between 5-7%. And hey, unlike stocks, real estate doesn't let you make impulsive decisions – it's got a built-in restraint, like a trusty seatbelt for your financial journey. Cryptocurrencies? Well, they're like the rollercoaster of investments – one moment up, the next moment down. And as for forex, it's like spinning a globe and trying to predict the future. But real estate? It's that reliable old friend you can count on. Now, you might be thinking, "Hey, I'm new to this party. Can I really join?" Absolutely! You don't need a suitcase full of cash; all you need is the right mindset, a dash of time, and a sprinkle of knowledge. The best part? Starting out gives you an edge. Seasoned investors might be juggling a lot, but you? You've got the luxury of time and the thrill of picking your path. And guess what? You don't need a vault full of gold bars to snag a seat at the real estate table. Even a humble couple of thousand dollars can kick-start your journey. All you need is the right strategy and a splash of know-how. Now, before we wrap up, are you wondering if taking the real estate plunge is worth it? It's like asking if ice cream on a hot day is a good idea – absolutely! With the right approach, your investments can work harder for you. And for those of you thinking, "But my wallet's feeling light," No worries! We've got a step-by-step guide for you to invest with little to no money. Get ready to be amazed! Ready for the ultimate real estate investing journey? Let's get into the nitty-gritty with our step-by-step guide! Step 1: Educate Yourself. Before you leap, learn! Dive into some real estate investing books. Get my books. They are FREE... "Smart Real Estate Wholesaling" and "Real Estate Money Secrets" – they're your guides to success. Get them at www.RealEstateMoneySecrets.com Step 2: Embrace Technology. Get cozy with technology – it's your real estate ally. Explore apps like the one I use and recommend at www.EmpireBigData.com for property records and analysis tools that'll make you a deal-spotting wizard. Step 3: Network and Mentorship. Connect like a pro! Networking is your secret sauce. It's how I started in 2005, scouring newspapers for meetups. Today, social media makes it even easier to build a community. Step 4: Get Creative with Financing. You don't need a money tree to invest. Wholesale real estate, explore seller financing, or dive into lease options. The world of real estate is your oyster. Step 5: Meet REITs. Meet Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) – your ticket to investing without buying properties. These companies are like your backstage pass to real estate riches. Step 6: Invest Your Sweat Equity. Got skills? Put 'em to work! Partner up, offer your expertise, and watch your investment grow, just like that cozy bungalow you've got your eye on. Step 7: Join Forces with Joint Ventures. Teamwork makes the dream work! Partner with experienced investors who've got the funds, and you've got the energy and skills. It's a win-win. In fact, downloading my books for free at www.RealEstateMoneySecrets.com is the very first step to partnering with us here. Step 8: Master the Art of Negotiation. Negotiation is your secret weapon. Learn the ropes, focus on distressed properties, and swoop in for the win. Step 9: House Hacking. Imagine living in a place that pays for itself! House hacking lets you do just that. Live in a multi-unit property and rent out the other units – covering your living expenses while building equity and gaining real estate experience. But wait, we're not done yet! There's still more to uncover in this real estate adventure. Are you ready? Step 10: Continuous Learning and Adaptation. Markets change, strategies evolve, and innovations pop up like daisies. It's important to stay informed, adapt to new trends, and keep learning about this dynamic world of real estate. Remember, while it's possible to invest in real estate with little to no money, it requires dedication, resourcefulness, and a willingness to learn. And we've made that super-simple with access to the free books, "Smart Real Estate Wholesaling" and "Real Estate Money Secrets" at www.RealEstateMoneySecrets.com By utilizing creative strategies and leveraging available resources, you can begin your real estate investing journey and work towards building wealth over time. So there you have it, the ultimate 10-step guide to real estate investing!

This tik tok had close to $1 million views last night and over 25k retweets and, in 24 hours, was pulled down @JanJekielek Do we still believe this is about a virus? They who want to control don't want you to make discoveries. I tried to repost it, and it says “ under review” … UNDER review by WHO? I am leading the Microbiome Research clinically. Who else knows what Blautia or Roseburia does or what they are, or is it normal to have them? Please teach me... Here's my advice; EDUCATE YOURSELF to stay alive. This is NOT about health… If it was... “discovering the loss of Bifidobacteria in severe covid patients would have hit mainstream media.” They would have pushed vitamins, exercise, and gut health for you to survive Covid. This is about control. This is about removing your freedom to speak and freedom to choose. Unite to fight for the truth. Stop the division. Your politician will not save you. @Progenabiome was created to empower you, to #letdrsbedrs, to #Savethebif. This is my life's mission NOW!! The moment they interfered with my research, they woke me up, and I am a hurricane in research. #WATCHME #ROAR.. No Dr will innovate if this continues... No Dr will try a drug or a treatment if medicine continues to be political. We cannot afford to interfere with research because we all will be patients. Research needs to be pure and unbiased and we MUST be able to challenge the narrative. sabine hazan md on Twitter: "This tik tok had close to $1 million views last night and over 25k retweets and, in 24 hours, was pulled down @JanJekielek Do we still believe this is about a virus?

After becoming a victim to sexual abuse when she was six or seven years old, enduring multiple instances of abuse and assault as time went on, and then becoming a victim of rape as a teenager, Grace found herself in her 20s isolated by a trafficker and alone as a single mom in India. Driven to despair, she almost committed suicide. Miraculously, God spoke to her that both she and her daughter belonged to him, and that their lives were not their own. The psychological, emotional, and physical stress and abuse Grace endured led to all kinds of health problems. At an early age, her immune system became compromised from the stress, leading her to be sick all the time. Then she developed chronic headaches that became full-blown migraines. Eventually, all the stress became fibromyalgia, with unexplainable pain all over her body. After experiencing chest pains that intensified to the point where she could barely breathe, Grace finally visited a doctor, who told her that without rest and help, she would leave her daughter an orphan within six months. Join us on the episode today to hear how God has met Grace with healing emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. · Grace's Website · Beauty for Ashes · Order Grace's Book · Contact Grace for Counseling · Youth With a Mission (YWAM) · Tera's Website · Tera's Instagram · A21 Guide to Teach Your Kids About Trafficking · A21 Guide to Educate Yourself and Prevent Human Trafficking · The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

Go over, not around, obstacles to avoid widening the trails. Cross streams only at designated fords. when possible, avoid wet, muddy trails. On water, stay on designated waterways and launch your watercraft in designated areas. Respect the Rights of Others including private property owners, all recreational trail users, campers and others so they can enjoy their recreational activities undisturbed. Leave gates as you found them. Yield right of way to those passing you or going uphill. On water, respect anglers, swimmers, skiers, boaters, divers and those on or near shore. Educate Yourself prior to your trip by obtaining travel maps and regulations from public agencies. Plan for your trip, take recreation skills classes and know how to operate your equipment safely.

September 11, 2001 changed our lives and our world forever. It is the one day each year that we all come together, regardless of our backgrounds, and remember the horrific acts of that day. But what happened on September 12, 2001? That is the day we began healing as a nation but it also showed our differences. In this episode, I talk about my experience post 9/11, as a PoC, and how it impacted the parenting of my 4 children. By educating ourselves, we can learn so much from each other and begin to break down these social barriers. Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/user?u=31725704)
This week, my amazing husband, Anu, joins us in the studio to discuss how fathers can become engaged in their child's schools. Father's roles are different from mothers and just as important in the schools. Their approach to education and support is a vital source of strength needed for schools and their children. Children need to see their fathers take interest and participate in education. Anu and I discuss and laugh our way through his journey of fatherhood and raising 4 children.
