Are you pouring energy into social media, podcast guesting, and SEO — only to watch those visitors disappear with no way to reach them again? In this episode of Her Faith at Work, Jan Touchberry reveals why your email list is the single most powerful organic marketing tool a Christian woman entrepreneur can build — and why every other visibility strategy you use becomes exponentially more effective when it feeds into a well-tended list.Jan breaks down the "bucket with a hole in it" problem that plagues even the most visible online businesses, walks through what a healthy email list actually does for your bottom line, brings a faith-based perspective on email stewardship, and gives you a practical 5-step framework — including a complete welcome sequence breakdown — to start building and tending your list today.What We Cover in This EpisodeWhy social media is "borrowed ground" — and what that means for your business stabilityThe mindset shift: your email list is the engine of visibility, not the reward for it4 things a healthy email list does for your business (including the one that directly impacts revenue)Why building an email list is an act of faith-based stewardshipThe 5 practical components you need to start growing your listA complete breakdown of the 5-email welcome sequence that warms up new subscribersWhat to do right now — whether you have no list, a dormant list, or a thriving oneKey Takeaways1. Social Media Is Borrowed GroundYou do not own your Instagram following, your Facebook page, or your TikTok audience. Algorithms shift, accounts get shut down, platforms disappear. Your email list is the one audience asset you actually own — and you can take it with you anywhere.2. Your List Is the Engine, Not the RewardWaiting until you have a "big enough" following to focus on your email list is a costly mistake. Every piece of visibility content you create — podcast appearances, SEO blog posts, collaborations — becomes dramatically more effective when it flows to a list that captures and retains interested people.3. Email Converts Better Than Social MediaPeople on your email list have already taken a step toward you. They are not passive scrollers — they are engaged. The data consistently shows that email subscribers convert to buyers at a significantly higher rate than social media followers.4. Your List Is a Stewardship ResponsibilityWhen someone hands you their email address, they are trusting you with something personal. Stewarding that access well — showing up with intention, delivering real value, not abusing the relationship — reflects the kind of business you are called to build.5. Consistency Is CompoundingEvery email you send is a deposit into the relationship. Going silent for months and then appearing in someone's inbox to sell something is a trust-breaker. You don't have to email daily — but you do have to show up regularly enough that people remember who you are.The 5-Email Welcome Sequence BreakdownJan walks through her recommended welcome sequence for new subscribers:Email 1 — Deliver & Introduce (Send immediately)Deliver the freebie, introduce yourself in 2-3 sentences, and tell subscribers what to expect from you going forward. Keep it short and warm.Email 2 — Your Story (Send 1-2 days later)Why do you do what you do? What brought you here? People buy from people they relate to — this is where that connection starts.Email 3 — Address the Core Problem (Send 2-3 days later)Speak directly to the struggle that brought them to your list. Show them you understand. This is not a sales email — it's an "I see you" email.Email 4 — Teach Something Useful (Send 2-3 days later)Give a quick win. A tip, a framework, a simple shift they can apply immediately. Proving your value before you ask for anything builds trust fast.Email 5 — Make an Offer (Send 2-3 days later)Now you've earned the right to invite them into something. Keep it natural and low-pressure: "If you want to go deeper, here's how I can help."5 Things You Need to Start Building Your List1. A compelling opt-in offerSolve one specific problem for one specific person. A checklist, guide, private podcast playlist, or short video training — something that gives her a quick win.2. A dedicated landing pageA clean page that answers three questions: What is it? Who is it for? What do they get?3. An email platformFlodesk, ConvertKit, MailChimp, ActiveCampaign — the best one is the one you will actually use. Set up automated delivery so your freebie reaches subscribers immediately.4. A welcome sequenceThree to five emails that introduce you, build trust, and set up a natural first offer. Don't leave new subscribers in silence.5. ConsistencyShow up regularly. Not necessarily daily or even weekly — but often enough that your subscribers remember who you are when your email lands.Resources & Links MentionedJoin Jan's email list: jantouchberry.com/newsletterFlodesk (email platform Jan uses) — https://jantouchberry.com/emailYour Next StepNo email list yet?Start today.

30 years of combination experience. Retired Capt with The City Of Roanoke Fire-EMS on Engine 5, former Fire Chief with Bedford Fire Department who held the position for 15 years and currently State of Virginia Executive Director of Fire Programs. Was the fire service a calling for Brad? No he wanted to be in law enforcement and was fortunate to obtain that dream but after having an encounter with a Firefighter and asking “What does he have to do to get on?” Brad's trajectory was forever changed. At the end of the day we all need to ask ourselves what do we want out of the career we're looking to go into? We need to have drive, determination and remember above all especially working in a group setting it's not always about us. The individuals throughout Brad's career both volunteer and professional were able to plant that seed in him reminding it all comes down to the mission. We all should strive for obtaining goals we never thought was possible and when you hear Brad speak you will be able to clearly tell he has never forgotten that.
Free-market capitalism remains the best system ever discovered for human flourishing. Yet political support for it is wavering — and that should alarm anyone who cares about prosperity and freedom.A recent Gallup poll on Americans' views of capitalism and socialism found that just 54% of Americans now view capitalism favorably — the lowest level Gallup has ever recorded.The partisan breakdown is striking:Republicans remain strongly pro-capitalist, though support has softened.Independents now only narrowly favor capitalism.Among Democrats, fewer than half view capitalism positively, while nearly two-thirds view socialism favorably.The data reveal a hard truth: those of us who defend free-market capitalism are unlikely to persuade most Democrats anytime soon. Many Democrats appreciate the outcomes of capitalism — jobs, innovation, rising living standards — yet reject the label itself, often associating it with inequality, corporate favoritism, or cronyism.That means the task before us is bigger than winning a policy argument. It's about reclaiming the moral case for capitalism.In today's episode of This Week's Economy, I lay out that moral case, explore why criticisms of capitalism are gaining traction, and discuss how we can renew support for the system that has lifted more people out of poverty than any other in history.

Now is your chance to get your train car all set up so you can start adding other train cars (Sunday Baskets®) and be efficient like Rockafeller. Change Why like Rockafeller? This man from PA, refined oil. After refining the oil he had to transport the oil. He placed the oil in barrels. In order to be more efficient, he asked his workers to see how little material they could used to "seal" the metal bands around the barrels. Once he was efficient in that he questioned how could be be more efficient in transportation. Initially the barrels were transported on train cars but they were heavy and lost some oil along the way. So he came up with an oil tanker. The tanker carried a lot more oil without leaking. Curiosity How can you too be curious about everything you do in your homes to increase efficiency? What are your current systems and expectations and are they set for efficiency? I think about my robot vacuum. Grayson's new school has them play outside daily which means dirty shoes so I run it a little more often. But once the baby starts crawling, I plan to run it nightly. I adjust my cleaning standards based on my comfort level of cleanliness and the current phase of my family. I want you to always be asking yourself "Why am I doing this?" "Can someone else do it?"

Welcome to Exponential View, the show where I explore how exponential technologies such as AI are reshaping our future. I've been studying AI and exponential technologies at the frontier for over ten years. Each week, I share some of my analysis or speak with an expert guest to make light of a particular topic. To keep up with the Exponential transition, subscribe to this channel or to my newsletter: https://www.exponentialview.co/ ----- AI has become so embedded in how I work that I can no longer cleanly separate it from my thinking. That raises a question I find genuinely unsettling: is intensive AI use making me a sharper thinker, or quietly doing the opposite? In this episode I pull back the curtain on my full research and writing process — the custom tools, the friction points, and the places where I'm still not sure I've got it right. For Ezra Klein, having AI summarize material is a disaster for original thought. But my AI systems are designed to protect the cognitive work that has to stay human, while they handle everything else. Knowing where to draw that line turns out to be the hardest and most important question. I covered: 00:00 - Is AI worsening our thinking? 02:35 - Ezra Klein on AI and the death of original thought 04:02 - Cognitive offloading vs cognitive surrender 09:20 - Signal detection at scale 11:06 - Why I use several AI personas to scan for different insights 13:37 - AI tells me what NOT to think about 16:25 - The value of quietness 19:07 - Small notebooks, small ideas 20:01 - Writing reveals what you don't yet know 23:24 - The golden thread 25:20 - Speaking drafts aloud 28:05 - How I stress-test my arguments before publishing 29:35 - Using AI to stress-test my own house views 31:44 - Stylometer: my AI style and grammar tool 33:10 - Did AI make the thinking better?

What if your company already has dozens of thought leaders—you just haven't unlocked them yet?In this episode, Laura Pursley shares how a simple interview process helped transform internal expertise into a scalable content engine.

He was killed in a railroad accident, and there are a couple of songs about him, one by the Grateful Dead and another made famous by Johnny Cash.The story is that Casey is an accomplished engineer. He was driving a passenger train (engine 382) that was running behind. Time was mostly made up. A freight train had pulled onto a siding, but the air brakes broke and locked it up with the caboose and a couple of cars still on the main line. Sims was the fireman. Casey told him to bail, and he did. If Casey had bailed, it would have hit that train going 75 miles an hour. Since he stayed, he slowed it to 35, and the passengers all lived. The only fatality was him. This was in 1900.Engine 382 was rebuilt, but it crashed 4 more times, the final time running into a passenger train and killing 4 people, including the former president and VP of the railroad it was on.)Ironically, this Casey Jones did not drinkSupport the showWebsite:www.whiskeychaserspod.comFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/whiskeychaserspodcastInsta:https://www.instagram.com/whiskeychaserspodcast/TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@whiskeychaserspodcastThanks For Listening!

Torkil Lauesen joins us to discuss his book Unequal Exchange: Past, Present, and Future and the hidden mechanics of modern imperialism. Lauesen returns to the tradition of Arghiri Emmanuel to argue that while the world market tends to equalize prices, wages remain radically unequal across borders -- driving a structural transfer of value from low-wage production zones to high-wage consumer economies. We walk through Lauesen's reconstruction of unequal exchange through Marx's value theory, the leading approaches to measuring global value transfer, and what contemporary estimates imply about the scale of the drain. From there, we explore the political consequences inside the Global North: why reformism and social democracy have often been stabilized by imperial arrangements, what that means for internationalism, and why the "imperial mode of living" is increasingly unstable. Finally, we turn to the shifting world order -- especially Lauesen's argument that a new mode of production may be emerging, best exemplified by China -- and what that implies for the future of capitalism, multipolarity, and socialist transition. We also discuss the ongoing war/conflict involving Iran and what it reveals about crisis, hegemony, and the changing methods of imperial power.

Assembling the "Engine" in Canine Structure Veteran breeder and judge Stephanie Seabrook Hedgepath joins host Laura Reeves to break down the dog's "engine" -- rear construction from croup anatomy and tail set to hock length and bend of stifle — helping breeders and judges understand how structure drives movement and longevity. The entire rear assembly in a dog is the engine that propels it forward. Stephanie and Laura unpack the anatomy and biomechanics behind a correct rear assembly, why balance matters more than any single piece, and how faults in the rear (or the front) can break a working dog down over time. The Rear as the Engine Stephanie describes the rear as a pole vault mechanism, driving the dog over its front assembly. The pelvis, sacral vertebrae (three fused bones), and hip joints form a solid, interconnected unit — and understanding how they work together is key to evaluating any breed. Croup Angle and Tail Set The croup's angle determines tail set and follow-through. A steep croup lets a dog reach far under itself but limits follow-through — the dog picks its foot back up instead of pushing off completely. A high tail set (Stephanie's memorable test: can you see the dog's anus from behind?) produces a tail that curls over the back and signals a structural problem, not just a cosmetic one. Hock Length: Short Isn't Always Better Not every breed needs a short hock. Whippets need length to generate speed. Corgis need enough leg to cover ground. The right hock length always comes back to the question: can this dog do the job it was bred to do? Bend of Stifle and Sickle Hock Too much bend in the stifle often produces an overly long rear pastern and a sickle hock — the dog can't stand square and loses its ability to push off effectively. Handlers may be able to mask it on the stack, but the dog's movement tells the truth. Why Balance Is Everything A dog that is straight both front and rear tires quickly but stays sound. A dog with a strong rear and a straight front is the most problematic combination — the front, held together only by muscle and ligament, will break down under the stress the rear generates. Movement is the proof of structure, and slowing a dog down in the ring often reveals problems that a fast gait conceals. Breadth, Loin and Feet Stephanie and Laura also cover the importance of croup width (muscling and power), loin strength and length, and breed-appropriate feet — reminding listeners that every element of the standard exists because it helped a dog perform its original function.
Every year, the ocean removes billions of tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Most people assume whales, mangroves, or seagrass are responsible for this massive climate service. But the largest carbon capture system on Earth is actually microscopic. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, we explore the biological carbon pump, a powerful process driven by ocean microbes that captures carbon at the surface and transports it deep into the ocean for centuries. These tiny organisms, including phytoplankton and cyanobacteria, form the foundation of marine food webs and play a critical role in regulating Earth's climate. Without them, atmospheric CO₂ levels could be dramatically higher. We break down how this microbial system works, why it matters for climate stability, and how warming oceans could disrupt one of the planet's most important natural carbon storage mechanisms. Understanding the ocean's smallest organisms might be the key to understanding our planet's climate future.

ULAS HiPR, University of Limerick's student-led high-powered rocketry team, has announced that in partnership with University of Limerick and Irish Manufacturing Research (IMR), the team will design and produce the first additive-manufactured (3D printed) liquid rocket engine in the Republic of Ireland – the Lúin of Celtchar. ULAS HiPR, founded in 2022 and entirely student-run, brings together University of Limerick students from across disciplines, including aeronautical, mechanical, software, and design engineering, with a shared goal of designing, manufacturing, and launching high-powered rockets. The 2025/2026 team, which has grown rapidly and now attracts over a hundred motivated students, has already had success internationally, representing Ireland in prestigious competitions, including Mach-24 and EuRoC (European Rocketry Challenge). ULAS HiPR's previous rockets – Morrígu, Airmedh and Macha – have already demonstrated strong performance and innovation in their design, payload integration, and flight execution. As part of this next chapter, ULAS HiPR is further excited to announce its official acceptance into the prestigious UK-based Race2Space 2026 International Propulsion Competition – a major milestone in advancing Irish student-led space propulsion capabilities, and the first year of participation for the team in one of the foremost student-focused international aerospace engineering challenges. The engine, a high-performance 2 kN, water-cooled, IPA/Nitrous Oxide bi-propellant system, has been designed entirely by the ULAS HiPR student team. It is now being manufactured at IMR's Advanced Manufacturing Lab in Mullingar using metal additive manufacturing, before returning to the University of Limerick for precision machining and assembly. This manufacturing approach will enable the engine to incorporate complex internal cooling channels, rapid design iteration, and enhanced efficiency that would be difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional manufacturing techniques. Speaking at the announcement, Jay Looney, Co-Head of ULAS HiPR, described the significance of today's announcement, saying, "The acceptance of our project to Race2Space marks a defining moment not only for ULAS HiPR, but for Ireland's student space community. The selection of the first additively manufactured liquid rocket engine in the Republic of Ireland into the competition validates the technical ambition of our student team and the strength of collaboration between Irish university students with industry. It demonstrates that world-class propulsion innovation can now be designed, manufactured, and tested entirely here in Ireland." The Race2Space entry, spanning conceptual design, advanced manufacturing, and testing preparation, represents a major milestone not only for ULAS HiPR but for the wider Irish student space ecosystem. Through this initiative, the team is proving that cutting-edge propulsion development can be achieved domestically through strong collaboration between academia and industry partners. Mark Hartnett, Design for Manufacturing Senior Technologist at IMR, commenting on the importance of proposing cutting-edge technologies in student-led initiatives like Race2Space, said, "At IMR, supporting ambitious student teams like ULAS HiPR reflects our commitment to strengthening Ireland's advanced manufacturing ecosystem and enabling the next generation of aerospace innovators. These are vital platforms for advancing cutting-edge technologies and building Ireland's future engineering capability, and this ULAS HiPR propulsion project demonstrates how emerging technologies can move rapidly from concept to high-performance hardware." Acceptance into Race2Space gives ULAS HiPR an exciting platform on which to showcase Irish student innovation on an international stage, taking a bold step toward higher thrust objectives, advanced propulsion systems, and consolidating Ireland's role in the global space engineering ecosystem. As ULAS HiP...

Michael Bethany was leading worship, building wells in Sri Lanka, writing songs, and serving the church—but something was missing. Then in 2017, he watched a Francis Chan YouTube video about Isaiah 6. And everything changed. That night, he felt guilty praying from his bed. He got on his knees, humbled himself, and started waking up 1.5 hours earlier for a daily prayer closet—even though he "didn't know how to pray that long." What happened next reshaped his entire ministry. In this powerful conversation, Michael shares: ✅ Why intimacy with God is the ENGINE for mission (not the other way around) ✅ The teenager moment when he spontaneously sang "Holy" and everything shifted ✅ How getting tricked into a Sri Lanka missions trip changed his relationship with music ✅ Why "you don't have enough energy to change the world without intimacy with the Lord" ✅ The #1 reason worship leaders get fired (hint: it's not musical ability) If you're running on fumes, trying to lead well while feeling distant from God—this episode will recalibrate everything.

Impact of Feedback: When employees believe their feedback is actually used to make improvements, they are 37% less likely to look for a new job. Pew Research Center On average, engaged employees see a 20% individual performance improvement and an 87% reduction in the desire to leave. A 2024 research Survey with The Harris Poll found that managers play a critical role in moving employees from burned out and checked out to thriving. For employees who say they are thriving, the top indicator is a manager who is "invested in their success." Employee thriving is driven by three key drivers: Stephen Baer is the Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Engagency, a firm built on his core belief that human engagement is the engine of business performance. He leads a team of behavioral experts who help organizations build meaningful, measurable connections with their workforce and customers.

In this powerful conversation, Peyton sits down with his longtime mentor and friend, Larry Walkemeyer, to unpack why disciple-making must come before church multiplication, and why so many movements stall when they skip that step.Drawing from themes in Discipology and Larry's forthcoming book The Making of a Multiplier, this episode explores the deep connection between time, teaching, and tactics — the three rhythms of Jesus' disciple-making strategy that ultimately led to explosive Kingdom impact.Larry shares:Why the priesthood of all believers is the theological foundation of mobilizationHow relational disciple-making fuels true multiplicationA powerful personal vision that reshaped his ministry philosophyWhy you can't teach multiplication into existence The difference between a “lake mentality” and a “river mentality” churchYou'll also hear stories of everyday believers who became disciple-makers simply because someone walked closely with them long enough for the fire to catch.If you're passionate about church planting, leadership development, or seeing movements multiply, this episode will challenge you to slow down, go deep, and mobilize before you multiply.Resources and Links Mentioned in this Episode:DiscipologyBook.comReliant Mission: reliant.org/cppNewBreed TrainingThanks for listening to the church planter podcast.
