Jase and Al open the episode with a sheepish “my bad” after a producer fact-checks one of their rock-'n'-roll memories. What started as an innocent mix-up turns into a full-blown investigation involving parade floats, PETA, and a certain ‘80s icon who wasn't who they thought she was. The guys marvel at how a simple slip becomes “fake news.” The guys connect the crown on Jesus' brow back to Adam's curse, and examine how unbridled idolatry leads to the ruination of generations of lives.  In this episode: John 19, verse 5; Genesis 3, verses 17–18; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 42–57; Hosea 13, verse 14; 1 Peter 2, verses 13–25 “Unashamed” Episode 1207 is sponsored by: http://frontline21.com — Embrace biblical masculinity.

In our school communities, we talk a great deal about moral and intellectual formation. But physical development, too, has an essential place in the whole-person, long-term vision of what our sons and students can become. Heights Athletic Director Dan Lively reminds us that the goals of athletic training don't begin and end with high school sports. In fact, lifelong functional fitness is in service to every vocation. It ensures that we and our sons are capable of having a positive impact—on the world and in our families—for as many years as we're on this earth.

Are you letting anxiety and the need to play it safe hold you hostage in your relationships and personal growth? Too often, fear—of rejection, failure, or the unknown—becomes the invisible fence shaping our actions. Perfectionism, procrastination, overthinking, and the constant urge to avoid discomfort can shrink our lives, leaving us disconnected from our true selves and the people we care about most. In this episode, we explore how fear influences perfectionism, anxiety, and avoidance in our relationships and daily lives. Discover compassionate approaches to working with anxiety—learning why fighting it doesn't work, and how, instead, our willingness to acknowledge, understand, and even befriend discomfort can become a gateway to deeper connection and greater freedom. Through practical tools and real-world strategies like "uncertainty workouts," values-based action, and self-compassion, this episode aims to help you navigate the messy, beautiful process of showing up more authentically for yourself and those you care about. Dr. Patricia Zurita Ona is on a mission to help people break free from ineffective, play-it-safe patterns so they can begin living rich, purposeful, and meaningful lives. A trained psychologist, she is the author of seven books and co-author of two more. Her expertise has led her to present workshops at both national and international conferences. She also runs a boutique therapy and coaching practice that specializes in the application of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for anxiety. Passionate about her work, she delights in creating personalized resources for every client she serves.   Episode Highlights 06:03 The interconnectedness of anxiety and its impact on life. 09:07 The importance of accepting anxiety instead of fighting it. 10:02 Using values to guide responses and reduce anxiety's control. 13:50 The need to tolerate discomfort in relationships. 18:53 Navigating fear of commitment and embracing uncertainty. 22:49 Building tolerance for ambiguity and uncertainty. 24:32 How avoiding uncomfortable emotions can increase suffering and relates to trauma and emotional regulation. 29:52 Values-based exposure and compassionate approaches to fear. 33:41 Developing micro skills for managing difficult conversations. 35:41 Integrating self-compassion and Wise Moves for anxiety management. 38:01 Practical resources, parenting insights, and closing reflections.   Your Check List of Actions to Take Take a moment to pause with a deep inhale and exhale, noticing sensations in your body before engaging in difficult conversations or when feeling anxious. Instead of fighting anxiety, recognize it as a protective part of your humanity and make room for it. When anxiety arises, ask yourself what truly matters to you in that moment to guide your response. Embrace uncomfortable feelings in relationships without avoidance, viewing them as essential for growth and authenticity. Intentionally expose yourself to uncertainty in small, manageable ways (like trying a new restaurant or activity) to build tolerance. When fear surfaces, actively choose actions that align with your core values—even if they feel difficult. Treat yourself with gentleness during moments of avoidance, procrastination, or anxiety, recognizing your effort and courage. When facing a fearful situation, pause and check in with your body and thoughts, then proceed with intentionality rather than rushing through.   Mentioned The ACT Workbook for Teens with OCD (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Living Beyond OCD Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Escaping the Emotional Roller Coaster (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Parenting a Troubled Teen (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Borderline Personality Disorder (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Acceptance and Commitment Skills for Perfectionism and High-Achieving Behaviors (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) The ACT Workbook for the Anxious Procrastinator (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Dr. Z's Online Classes (link) ERP 461: How to Increase Psychological Flexibility for Healthy Relationships — An Interview with Dr. Steven Hayes ERP 238: How To Find Your Emotional Balance In Relationship 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free relationship guide) (pdf)   Connect with Dr. Patricia Zurita Ona Websites: thisisdoctorz.com | eastbaybehaviortherapycenter.com Facebook: facebook.com/EastBayBehaviorTherapyCenter | facebook.com/Dr-Z-102029237841421 X: twitter.com/DrZ_behaviorist YouTube: linkedin.com/in/patricia-e-zurita-ona-psy-d-949b5a15 Instagram: instagram.com/dr.z.passionatebehaviorist

人們不喜歡被強迫推銷，他們想要的是被理解，並被啟發成為你故事的一部分。奉行熱情但不強求哲學，展現你最好的一面，做出卓越的成果，然後放下對結果的執著。這就是飛輪效應，這就是魔法。People don't want to be sold; they want to feel understood and inspired to be part of your story. Embrace the philosophy of passionate ambivalence — show up as your best self, do exceptional work, and detach from outcomes. That's the flywheel. That's the magic. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

Fluent Fiction - Catalan: In the Warm Embrace of Patience: Oriol's Journey Beyond Recovery Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ca/episode/2025-11-12-08-38-20-ca Story Transcript:Ca: El vent suau de la tardor feia ballar les fulles dels arbres, pintant el paisatge de Catalunya de tons d'ambre i escarlata.En: The gentle autumn wind made the leaves of the trees dance, painting the landscape of Catalunya in amber and scarlet tones.Ca: La masia d'Oriol era un refugi tranquil, rodejat de camps daurats que s'estenien fins on arribava la vista.En: La masia of Oriol was a tranquil refuge, surrounded by golden fields that stretched as far as the eye could see.Ca: L'olor de pa acabat de fer omplia l'aire, mentre Laia, la seva germana petita, passava hores preparant àpats saborosos per al seu germà convalescent.En: The smell of freshly baked bread filled the air, while Laia, his little sister, spent hours preparing flavorful meals for her convalescent brother.Ca: Oriol s'asseia a la butaca de la sala d'estar, amb la cama enlaire, mirant per la finestra.En: Oriol sat in the armchair in the living room, with his leg elevated, looking out the window.Ca: La recuperació de la seva cirurgia de genoll era més lenta del que havia esperat.En: The recovery from his knee surgery was slower than he had expected.Ca: Cada matí es despertava amb l'esperança d'una millora significativa, però cada dia l'entenia més clar: la recuperació requeria temps i paciència.En: Each morning he woke up hoping for a significant improvement, but each day he understood more clearly: recovery required time and patience.Ca: —Oriol, ja està a punt el dinar— va dir la Laia, entrant a l'estança amb un somriure radiant.En: "Oriol, lunch is ready," said Laia, entering the room with a radiant smile.Ca: —Gràcies, Laia.En: "Thank you, Laia.Ca: T'estic donant molta feina.En: I'm giving you a lot of work."Ca: La Laia, sempre optimista, li va contestar amb dolçor:—És un plaer cuidar-te.En: Laia, always optimistic, replied sweetly: "It's a pleasure to take care of you.Ca: I veuràs que, amb temps, podràs caminar sense problemes.En: And you'll see that, with time, you'll be able to walk without problems."Ca: Oriol volia creure les paraules de Laia, però la seva impaciència creixia com un gegant invisiblement.En: Oriol wanted to believe Laia's words, but his impatience grew like an invisibly giant.Ca: Un matí, després d'acabar els seus exercicis de rehabilitació, va decidir que havia arribat el moment de posar-se a prova.En: One morning, after finishing his rehabilitation exercises, he decided it was time to put himself to the test.Ca: Amb un esforç considerable, es va aixecar de la butaca, agafant-se a la paret per mantenir l'equilibri.En: With considerable effort, he stood up from the armchair, holding onto the wall to maintain balance.Ca: La Laia el va observar des de la cuina, amb un cor ple de preocupació i esperança.En: Laia watched him from the kitchen, her heart full of concern and hope.Ca: —Oriol!En: "Oriol!Ca: Estàs segur?En: Are you sure?"Ca: La seva veu suau el va fer dubtar un moment, però ell estava decidit a provar.En: Her gentle voice made him hesitate for a moment, but he was determined to try.Ca: Va fer un pas, després un altre.En: He took one step, then another.Ca: El genoll tremolava, i un dolor agut el va ferir.En: His knee trembled, and a sharp pain struck him.Ca: —Deixa'm ajudar-te— va insistir la Laia, acostant-se ràpidament.En: "Let me help you," Laia insisted, approaching swiftly.Ca: Dividit entre l'orgull i la necessitat, Oriol es va deixar caure curosament a la butaca.En: Torn between pride and necessity, Oriol carefully let himself fall back into the armchair.Ca: —Ho puc fer, però potser no avui— va admetre amb una resignació difícil.En: "I can do it, but maybe not today," he admitted with difficult resignation.Ca: La Laia li va somriure, posant una mà sobre la seva espatlla:—Encara tenim temps, Oriol.En: Laia smiled at him, placing a hand on his shoulder: "We still have time, Oriol.Ca: No cal córrer.En: There's no need to rush."Ca: Aquella tarda, mentre el sol es ponia darrere dels camps, Oriol va reflexionar sobre les seves accions i el malestar suau encara persistent al seu genoll.En: That afternoon, as the sun set behind the fields, Oriol reflected on his actions and the still persistent mild discomfort in his knee.Ca: Finalment, va entendre que no estava sol en aquesta travessia.En: Finally, he realized he was not alone on this journey.Ca: La seva germana no només l'ajudava físicament, sinó que li donava el suport emocional que tant necessitava.En: His sister not only helped him physically but also provided the emotional support he so desperately needed.Ca: Amb els dies següents, Oriol va començar a acceptar l'ajuda de Laia amb un cor més obert.En: In the following days, Oriol began to accept Laia's help with a more open heart.Ca: Va aprendre a valorar els àpats que ella preparava, les converses al voltant de la taula i les tardes de jocs i rialles sota el sostre acollidor de la masia.En: He learned to appreciate the meals she prepared, the conversations around the table, and the afternoons of games and laughter under the welcoming roof of la masia.Ca: Finalment, Oriol es va adonar que la paciència no era només una virtut, sinó un camí cap a la veritable força.En: Eventually, Oriol realized that patience was not just a virtue but a path to true strength.Ca: Gràcies a Laia, la seva recuperació es va convertir en una aventura compartida, reforçant el vincle entre germans.En: Thanks to Laia, his recovery became a shared adventure, strengthening the bond between siblings.Ca: I, en això, Oriol va trobar un tresor molt més valuós que l'autosuficiència immediata: l'amor i la complicitat de la seva família.En: And in that, Oriol found a treasure far more valuable than immediate self-sufficiency: the love and camaraderie of his family.

The first step to transformation is to stop doing what no longer works." – Marcia Daszko On this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I sat down with Marcia Daszko, a visionary leadership consultant and author of Pivot, Disrupt, Transform: How Leaders Beat the Odds and Survive. Marcia's journey—from being "excruciatingly shy" to mentoring leaders at Apple, Boeing, and the U.S. Navy—reveals a rare combination of courage, curiosity, and clarity. Her lessons, rooted in the teachings of Dr. W. Edwards Deming, challenge leaders to abandon outdated management practices and embrace a deeper, systems-based way of thinking. From Management Fads to Meaningful Leadership Marcia began her career in marketing before being mentored by Dr. Perry Gluckman, a close associate of Dr. Deming, who revolutionized management thinking through systems theory and continuous improvement. What she learned was not just what to do, but how to think. Too often, organizations chase the latest management fad—Six Sigma, Lean, "best practices"—without understanding the systems that create real success. Marcia calls these "tragedies" because they add complexity without meaning. She estimates that 50 to 80 percent of organizational waste comes from such misguided efforts. Her process begins with a bold question: "What do we need to stop doing?" Once leaders remove what's not working, they can open the flow of communication, creativity, and collaboration—what Marcia calls the "system of profound knowledge." When systems make sense, people thrive. Watch the podcast here: Learning to See Differently Like many of my guests, Marcia helps organizations "see, feel, and think" in new ways. She starts by asking questions that uncover hidden assumptions and systemic barriers. Employees usually know what's wrong, she says, but no one listens. When she leads workshops, she doesn't rely on PowerPoint slides. Instead, she creates experiences—conversations, simulations, and reflections—that shift perspectives. "I don't get resistance," she explains, "because the exercises take care of that." It's an anthropologist's insight wrapped in a strategist's toolkit: people don't change because they're told to—they change because they experience a new way of being together. The Strategic Compass for an Uncertain Future In today's world of disruption, Marcia argues that leaders don't need a roadmap—they need a compass. The future can't be predicted; it must be navigated through exploration, experimentation, and learning. Her Strategic Compass helps executives pivot as they encounter new "rivers and mountains" in their business landscape. Leadership, she reminds us, is not about control but curiosity. The most powerful organizations foster environments where everyone can learn, question, and contribute. Her three "legs of the stool" are: Innovation as a business strategy Continuous improvement as a business strategy Quality as a business strategy Sadly, she says, quality and customer service—once foundational to success—have too often been forgotten. Building a Culture of Trust and Curiosity Both Marcia and I share a passion for culture change. She emphasizes that great leaders reduce fear and build trust. When people feel safe, they can be curious and collaborative. It's not enough to post company values on a wall; leaders must define the behaviors that bring those values to life. Her workshops often transform even the most rigid workplaces. In one session, an employee of 15 years said it was the first time he had felt truly appreciated and engaged. That's the power of inclusion, curiosity, and respect in action. Leading in the Age of AI As we discussed the rise of artificial intelligence, Marcia was unequivocal: "If you're afraid of AI, you'll be left behind." She sees AI not as a threat but as a tool for learning and transformation. The challenge, she warns, is to build guardrails—policies and ethics that guide its use responsibly. In an age when consulting firms can generate proposals in minutes, leaders must rethink how people create value. The winners will be those who empower their teams to use new tools, think critically, and continuously learn. Key Takeaways Stop before you start. Identify and eliminate wasteful management practices that add complexity without results. Think in systems. Every part of your organization is interconnected. Problems are rarely isolated. Create flow. Open channels for communication, creativity, and collaboration. Replace fear with trust. People thrive when they feel safe to contribute. Stay curious. Learning is not a phase—it's a way of life. Use AI wisely. Embrace new tools, but balance innovation with ethical governance. What You Can Do Next Run a "Stop Doing" audit. Gather your team and list processes or habits that no longer serve your mission. Eliminate one per quarter. Host a curiosity circle. Ask open-ended questions like, "What assumptions are we making?" or "What would our customers say if they were in this room?" Map your system. Visualize how information, decisions, and accountability flow. Look for bottlenecks or blind spots. Pair technology with humanity. Use AI or analytics to inform—not replace—human judgment. Model the behavior you want to see. As Marcia says, leadership begins when everyone sees themselves as a leader. Marcia Daszko's work reminds us that transformation is not about new tools—it's about new thinking. If you're ready to pivot from managing the past to creating the future, this episode will show you how.

Michael Sutton was a university student looking to pay tuition when he and a buddy spotted an overlooked problem: dirty grills. With zero experience and just pure hustle, they started knocking on doors. After landing five sales on their very first day, they hit a critical snag—they had no idea how to actually clean a grill. That first job was an "eight-hour disaster," forcing them to learn on the fly.Instead of quitting, Michael turned that grueling summer job into Grill Hero, a rapidly expanding franchise model for grill cleaning. He learned the hard way about the power of door-to-door sales and why employees are crucial for quality control over contractors. After a $10,000 university startup grant and a failed attempt at corporate expansion, Michael pivoted to the franchise model that became the key to his scaling.In this interview, Michael shares with Ryan Atkinson his playbook for turning a simple idea into a scalable home service business. He details the startup costs, his high-value pricing strategy (averaging $315/job), and how his franchisees are set up as managers from day one. This is a masterclass in entrepreneurship and building a real-world brand.Takeaways:- Sell your service before you have perfected it. Michael and his partner secured five sales on their first day of door-knocking before they even knew how to clean a grill.- Embrace early failures as a necessary learning curve. Their first cleaning was an "eight-hour disaster," but that failure was essential for iterating and developing a workable process.- Leverage your unique attributes. As 18-year-old entrepreneurs, they used their youth as a "superpower" to build rapport, gain trust, and get support from customers and mentors.- For a home service business, door-to-door sales are an invaluable way to get your first 100 customers, build personal relationships, and get direct feedback to refine your service.- The employee model is superior to the 1099 contractor model for a service business that depends on quality control, accountability, and building a strong brand culture.- When scaling, a franchise model can be far more effective than corporate expansion. It allows for deeper market penetration by leveraging a local owner's investment and focus.- Build your franchise model so that owners are "managers from day one." Their primary job should be sales, marketing, and operations, not doing the manual labor themselves.- A premium brand justifies premium pricing. By building a reputation as the most trusted name,- Grill Hero raised its prices from $60 to an average of over $315 by targeting high-end customers.- Look for simple, overlooked problems. Grill Hero found success by being a "first mover," offering a practical service that many people needed but no one else was offering.- Recognize your limitations and hire to fill the gaps. Michael's most significant recent growth came from hiring an experienced CEO, which allowed him to focus on his strengths.Tags: Home Services, Service & Consulting, Entrepreneurship, Side Hustle, Startup, Grill CleaningResources:Grow your business today: https://links.upflip.com/the-business-startup-and-growth-blueprint-podcast Connect with Mike: https://www.instagram.com/mikesutton7/

It looks like the government shutdown is coming to an end as eight Democrats cave in and join the Republicans. Passing the continuing resolution will take 3 appropriations bills off the table, funding military construction, veterans affairs, the legislative branch and the Department of Agriculture. Scott Presler was on the ground in New Jersey this election cycle and had a very early premonition about how it would go down. Republicans are still the low-propensity party, the enthusiasm for President Trump did not translate to Jack Ciattarelli or Virginia Republicans. This was an economic election at its core and the Democratic messaging coupled with Republicans' failure to not utilize early voting led to the failures in this election. Utilizing every tool available will be crucial for Republicans in the 2026 midterms if Republicans want to keep their majority in the House and the Senate. Abigail Spanberger can ignore Winsome Sears on the debate stage but as the new Governor of Virginia, Concerned Women For America is not ignoring her stance on Title IX and abortion.

Rob sits down with longtime coach and mentor Dean Jaderston to unpack the transitions that shaped his career—from Minnesota high schools to college men's hoops, and eventually to leading women at Friends University. Dean lays out a clear contrast between coaching men and women, why the collective psyche matters on women's teams, how to move from managing to leading, and what it takes to stay steady in a public, always-on era. Faith, patience, and the willingness to play the long game thread through the whole conversation.Key ThemesTransitions that grow you: High school → college; men → women; what Dean “didn't know he didn't know” about recruiting and preparation.Coachability & confidence: With men, puncturing overconfidence; with women, raising ceilings and naming their potential.The collective effect: Public praise/critique lands differently on women's teams—use “we/us” language and handle most individual feedback 1:1.Lead, don't just manage: Dean's “one big rule”—you either bless people or curse people; hold to that and cut the bloated rulebook.Faith as framework: Total-release effort as worship; coach the whole person—spiritually, emotionally, psychologically.Reality of the job: Life and coaching are messy; don't overreact, don't take it personally, watch actions over words, and keep vision front and center.Listening builds buy-in: Seek first to understand; today's athletes spot inauthenticity fast.Vision sustains: The Hartman Arena story—nobody believed it early; vision made the work coherent.Notable Moments00:15 – Why Rob almost changed jobs just to learn from Dean01:36 – High school → college: “I didn't know what I didn't know” (recruiting, prep)06:00 – When talent stalls: the cost of being uncoachable06:33 – Men vs. women: confidence gaps and ceilings08:52 – Language shift: use “we/us”; keep praise/critique mostly individual10:49 – Why schemes/X&O often matter more in the women's game11:58 – Teaching bug: chasing light-bulb moments and durable confidence14:35 – Faith, “audience of One,” and coaching the whole person20:17 – Coaching in the information age: echo chambers and public scrutiny21:18 – From rules to leadership: Dean's single standard (“bless vs. curse”)23:13 – Adapt the system to the roster you actually have24:04 – Listening as strategy for buy-in26:00 – Hope and vision: conditioning with the end in mind30:26 – Don't take it personal; judge actions over words31:02 – Playing the long game when your job feels year-to-year33:44 – Embrace the mess; prepare for age-appropriate, inappropriate moments35:25 – Rapid fire: books, failures, definitions of success, habitsRapid-Fire ReferencesBooks mentioned: Coach K's leadership book (annual reread); Frosty Westering's Make the Big Time Where You Are (ethos: maximize what you have, where you are).Podcast: Better Questions by Matt Davis.Definition of success: Help people see and seize their potential—spiritually, academically, emotionally, athletically.Practical TakeawaysShrink the rulebook. Hold a single, culture-defining standard and enforce it consistently.Reframe confidence. With men, calibrate realism; with women, remove ceilings.Mind the locker room dynamics. Public praise/critique has second-order effects on women's teams—coach individuals individually.Lead with listening. Credibility follows curiosity and presence.Keep vision visible. Name the destination daily so effort has context.Don't chase validation. If behavior changes, let that be the win.Check out more of our stuff (and sign up to get a free resource) at impactfulcoachingproject.com.

In this lecture, we explore a passage from Colossians 2:8 to Colossians 3:4, which serves as a vital reminder to Christians about their identities as followers of Christ. The speaker urges the audience to not be swayed by human philosophies and traditions that can lead individuals away from the core teachings of Jesus. The speaker emphasizes that in Christ lies the fullness of God, establishing that believers are complete through their connection with Him. This theological foundation sets the stage for a deeper understanding of spiritual identity and transformation.The speaker weaves in an analogy using the character Aragorn from "The Lord of the Rings," drawing parallels between Aragorn's hidden identity as king and the hidden identity of believers in Christ. Just as Aragorn ultimately embraces his true identity, the speaker encourages listeners to recognize and embrace their own identities as children of God. This transition into recognizing one's identity is essential for living authentically within the teachings of Christianity. The lecture further explains the transformative experience that baptism represents, which is not merely an outward ritual but a profound internal change that signifies being made alive in Christ.As the lecture progresses, the importance of rejecting false teachings and legalism becomes a focal point. The speaker discusses how early Christians in Colossae faced pressure to adhere to additional, unnecessary practices to attain spiritual depth, which detracted from the sufficiency of Christ. The speaker emphasizes that true transformation comes through a relationship with Christ, rather than through human efforts or adherence to specific regulations. The notion of spiritual resurrection is unpacked, indicating that believers have already begun to experience a new life in Christ that transcends worldly expectations and limitations.The exploration of “setting one's sights on the realities of heaven,” as articulated by Paul, emphasizes a shift in mindset. The lecture prompts listeners to contemplate what it means to center their thoughts and desires on heavenly things rather than earthly habits rooted in sin and self-indulgence. The speaker clarifies that this does not mean neglecting the world around them but rather transforming how they engage with it. An integral part of this transformation is understanding the role of self-denial as a means to redirect focus toward the divine rather than personal gain.The concept of glory is revisited towards the end of the session, portraying the ultimate assurance believers have in sharing in the glory of Christ. This hope serves as both a comfort and a catalyst for how they live their lives in the present. By highlighting the tension between current struggles and future promises, the speaker invites the audience to reflect on their aspirations and motivations, encouraging them to view their hidden life in Christ as one that will eventually be revealed in completeness. Overall, this lecture provides a thorough and insightful discourse that aims to empower Christians to fully embrace their identities as children of God, navigate their spiritual journey, and align their lives with Christ's character and purpose.
