You'll learn why it works (hello, FOMO), how to tell when it's real, and the red flags that suggest it's nothing more than pressure tactics.We also walk through practical tools to keep your cool: from asking the right questions that reveal whether another buyer exists, to setting your walk-away price long before negotiations begin. You'll hear why auction transparency can sometimes be a safer bet than private treaty, and why social proof plays such a powerful role in these conversations.Most importantly, you'll discover how to stay grounded, avoid overpaying, and protect yourself from manipulation — even when the pressure is high. Because buying your first home should be strategic, not a knee-jerk reaction to a sales pitch.Don't let fear or bluffing tactics derail your first home purchase.

One moment Elijah is standing in victory on Mount Carmel. The next, he's weary, discouraged, and ready to quit. How do you finish well when life feels heavy and faith feels small? In this finale from 1 Kings 19 through 2 Kings 2, Pastor Joby takes us through Elijah's last chapters where fear, failure, and frailty meet the faithfulness of God. From the still small voice in the cave to the fiery chariots of heaven, we discover that God is not finished with His people. He calls us to raise up the next generation, to walk in both Word and power, and to trust His promises all the way to the end. If you've ever wondered whether your past disqualifies you, or whether God can use you after your darkest days, Elijah's story is a reminder: it's not how you start, but how you finish.

Imagine saving for years, finally building up a $43,000 deposit, only to risk losing it all because of one overlooked detail. That’s exactly what happened to a Victorian first home buyer caught out by a little-known property type — and the fine print of a government scheme. In this episode, Meighan and Veronica unpack a real-life buyer disaster that highlights just how easy it is to confuse stratum title with strata title. They explain what stratum actually is, why banks and schemes often reject it, and how a rebound auction decision left this buyer in a financial nightmare. You’ll learn why due diligence is never optional — from getting a solicitor to review contracts, to understanding the small print in shared equity schemes like the Victorian Homebuyer Fund and the soon-to-launch federal Help to Buy program. We also explore how excitement, missed inspections, and poor advice can cloud judgment and lead to costly mistakes. If you’ve ever felt tempted to rush into a property after missing out, or if you’re considering government assistance programs, this story is your warning. Don’t let confusion or haste put your hard-earned deposit at risk — get the right advice, follow the right process, and buy with confidence.

I had such an inspiring conversation with Luna Aziz, the CEO & Founder of Legendairy Milk.  What started as her personal struggle with breastfeeding and milk supply has grown into a mission-driven brand that supports women through every stage of life—from trying to conceive to postpartum and beyond.  Luna's story is rooted in resilience, family support, and a deep commitment to women's health. Her candid honesty about motherhood and entrepreneurship made this conversation both powerful and refreshing. We talked about the realities of new motherhood, the stigma that still surrounds breastfeeding, and the importance of building products—and a community—that truly support women. Legendairy Milk isn't just about supplements; it's about breaking barriers, creating safe spaces for moms, and ensuring products are backed by science and integrity.  Luna also shared what it's been like to grow her business over 10 years, the sacrifices she's made along the way, and her advice to other founders navigating the entrepreneurial journey. Here are some key moments from our conversation: * How family support, especially her mom stepping in, made Legendairy Milk possible. * The personal struggles with milk supply that inspired her first product formulations. * Why humor and honesty are built into the brand's packaging and community. * How Legendairy Milk prioritizes education and support first, products second. * The certifications, testing, and research that set their supplements apart in a crowded market. Join me, Ramon Vela, as I listen to this episode and hear how Luna turned her challenges into a brand that has supported moms for over a decade.

In this week's episode of Not Alone, Valeria sits down with model, entrepreneur, and content creator Emily DiDonato to explore the joy of trying new things, no matter how imperfectly. Emily shares the story of being discovered at a mall as a teenager, stepping into a whirlwind modeling career, and eventually finding her creative spark in content creation. We dive into how Emily channels any flickers of comparison into motivation, why she's never been competitive or jealous, and how motherhood has redefined her version of “balance” (hint: there isn't any!). Emily opens up about the weekly “admin meetings” she and her husband use to keep their busy lives in sync, and why she believes there's magic in being a beginner. From career pivots to personal growth, Emily's philosophy is simple yet powerful: it's fun to try, it's fun to fail, and the learning process is where the real reward lies. This episode will leave you feeling braver about starting, more forgiving of the messy middle, and reminded that the courage to try, again and again, is what truly shapes a fulfilled life.

Buying your first home is rarely a straight line — and for Nathan and James, the road was full of detours, tough calls, and more than a few near misses. In this episode, we follow their journey from eager house hunters to proud Melbourne homeowners, sharing exactly how they navigated a fast-moving market without losing sight of their goals. You’ll hear how they set up their deposit strategy (yes, including the Barefoot Investor “buckets”), tackled the confusing First Home Super Saver Scheme, and learned to filter well-meaning but unhelpful advice from family. From adjusting suburbs and rethinking their non-negotiables, to understanding the Three Ps — price, position, property — Nathan and James show how the right compromises can still lead you to the right home. We also unpack their auction journey: the early nerves, the losses that taught them what to do differently, and the strategies that finally helped them win the bid. Along the way, they reveal how the Home Buyer Academy course and weekly Campfire calls gave them the knowledge, confidence, and resilience to keep going — even when the market felt like it was running away from them. If you’ve been feeling stuck, second-guessing your options, or worn down by competition, this real-life case study is proof that you can buy well — even in a hot market — when you have the right tools, the right mindset, and the determination to see it through.

[01:26] The God who never changes — Why your worth must be rooted in God's character, not fluctuating body changes. [03:18] The cultural obsession with youth — How beauty ideals affect self-worth and why the church should address them.

Resources & Links Mentioned Book: Love Beyond Looks: A Five-Week Bible Study on Body Image by Kasey Shuler — Available on Amazon Website & Coaching: joyfulhealth.co — Intuitive health coaching by grace Instagram: @joyfulhealthco Other books by Kasey Shuler: Rest and Rise, Move for Joy, Aligned Frequently Asked Questions: Christian Body Image & Biblical Self-Worth Q: What does the Bible say about body image? The Bible teaches that God looks at the heart rather than outward appearance (1 Samuel 16:7) and that we are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Your worth comes from being created in God's image, not from meeting cultural beauty standards. Q: How can Christian women overcome postpartum body shame? Postpartum body changes are part of God's design. Shift your perspective by thanking God for what your body has accomplished, such as carrying and nurturing life. Replace negative self-talk with Scripture, and focus on caring for your body out of gratitude rather than trying to “bounce back.” Q: How can I embrace aging as a Christian? Aging is a visible reminder of God's grace and the life He has given you. Scripture calls gray hair a crown of glory (Proverbs 16:31). Focus on spiritual renewal (2 Corinthians 4:16) and view smile lines and other signs of aging as evidence of joy and wisdom. Q: How do I teach my kids a healthy, biblical body image? Avoid appearance-based compliments and focus on character, kindness, and perseverance. Address unrealistic portrayals in media, celebrate body diversity, and remind your children that God created their bodies on purpose and with care. Q: How do I replace negative body image thoughts with God's truth? Identify the source of the negative thought (family, peers, or media) and then replace it with a relevant Bible verse. Keep verses like Psalm 139:14 or 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 visible—on your mirror, phone background, or journal—and repeat them regularly until they take root.   Faith-Fueled Wellness Quiz: Find out where you are on your wellness journey and get a custom podcast playlist filled with insight, inspiration, and motivation to help you move toward more energy, thriving health, and lasting peace — all in alignment with God's design. tinyurl.com/christianhealthquiz   Free Community tinyurl.com/holisticsisterhood   Book (Discover God's Health Wisdom: Exposing 8 Common Myths That Keep You Sick) www.herholistichealing.com/book   Holistic Health Coaching www.herholistichealing.com/coaching   Website www.herholistichealing.com   E-mail hello@herholistichealing.com

http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership interview, I had the privilege of speaking with Veena Joji, Chief Human Resource Officer of Apexon, about what it truly takes to stay relevant in today's ever-evolving business climate. Veena brings a deeply thoughtful and people-first approach to leadership, grounded in inclusion, continuous learning, and courage.Veena's passion for inclusive leadership was sparked during her childhood, attending an international school where diversity was a lived experience, not a buzzword. That early exposure to belonging shaped her view that inclusion isn't just a “nice to have”—it's essential to business success and human transformation.Now leading a global HR organization, Veena shared powerful, actionable strategies for emerging leaders, senior executives, and allies alike to remain not only visible but valuable in a fast-changing world. Her core message? Staying relevant is an intentional, ongoing practice of learning, connecting, and showing up fully.Key take-aways from the interview:0:01:22 – Veena's experience growing up in an international school shaped her lifelong belief in inclusion as a way of being—not just an initiative.0:04:28 – Relevance starts with cultivating a learning mindset and shifting from one-off training to personalized, on-demand development.0:05:40 – Building executive presence and confidence—especially for women—must be intentional and supported by targeted development programs.0:06:55 – Inclusion and purpose aren't soft skills—they're embedded in Apexon's performance metrics and leadership values.0:07:49 – Emerging leaders must believe in what they bring to the table and own their space in the room.0:09:45 – A common mistake: heads down doing great work, but forgetting to look up and speak out—visibility matters.0:14:02 – Allies must do more than open doors; they must actively speak up, sponsor, and help others earn their seat at the table.0:20:35 – Veena's top advice: Stay curious. Keep learning. Be vulnerable. Own your journey—and never stop asking for opportunities.If you're interested in being featured on the Fearless Female Leadership podcast, or you're a leader looking to gain clarity on ‘what's next', how to build more cohesive and high-performing teams, and lead with greater confidence and influence, let's have a confidential conversation. http://www.sherylkline.com/meetingCheering you on always!– Sheryl

This episode is part of Body Relationship Month — our special July series where we're revisiting some of our most-loved episodes to help you heal your relationship with your body. Many of us struggle to overcome society's message that you need to look a certain way to be valued. Adopting these messages (willingly or not) often creates debilitating battles with how we see our bodies. This negative body relationship can permeate nearly every aspect of life and diminish our entire experience. We end up living day after day with someone (ourselves) we don't accept, love, or appreciate unconditionally. And well… that sucks. But there are steps you can take to embrace your imperfections, accept yourself as-is, and still pursue your health and fitness goals. The result? Peace, freedom, and finally escaping a lifetime sentence in your food and body prison. In this episode — “Embracing Imperfection: How to Love Your Body at Every Stage” — you'll learn:

This week Nicola and Di are back with the third episode of our monthly financial series, Over The Money Fence with Roger Montgomery. This series aims to help you take control of your finances with clarity and confidence. Roger is the Founder and Chairman of Montgomery Investment Management, has over 30 years’ investing experience and is a highly respected financial commentator featuring on various ABC programs, as well as his popular column in The Australian newspaper. He is also the author of best-selling investment guidebook Value.able. In this conversation we chat about how to manage your money wisely at every age and every stage of your life. Roger goes through each generation from Gen Z, to Millennials, to Gen X, to Boomers and what you might need to focus on or consider when it comes to your finances for that stage of your life. Regardless of where you’re at in life, Roger recommends having a wealthing account. Entirely separate to a savings account, this account is where you focus on building wealth. As he suggests, a great financial habit to start is to pay yourself first into this account Roger talks about the benefits of taking some risks when you’re younger, why he thinks spending a lot of money on a wedding isn’t the best financial decision, why starting a side-hustle and being entrepreneurial is a great idea if you’ve got the drive and why paying down your mortgage first can make good financial sense. We also weigh up the pros and cons of investing your money in an investment property versus a private credit fund. Roger gives us solid ways of being able to make those decisions by making sense of and evaluating the true returns you’re getting on any investment you’re making. As always, this episode was full of so much valuable information and we’re so glad to be able to bring you these conversations with Roger where we are learning so much. We hope you are too.

More Than Menopause: Dr. Jill Balla on Hormones, Healing, and Supporting Women Through Every Stage | Conversations with a Chiropractor Episode Description: Hot flashes, hormone therapy, GLP-1s, and the truth behind weight gain—it's all on the table in this wide-ranging and empowering conversation between Dr. Stephanie Wautier and returning guest Dr. Jill Balla of Authentic Health in Traverse City, MI. Dr. Balla brings a functional medicine perspective to one of the most misunderstood times in a woman's life: the menopausal transition. Together, they unpack the real root causes behind symptoms like brain fog and mood swings, the risks and realities of hormone replacement therapy, and why the “quick fix” culture has left women more confused than ever. Whether you're curious about perimenopause, weight loss, detoxing, or just want to feel heard in a world that often ignores women's health—this one's for you.

The world is full of people right now trying to tell you that they have the secret to success. I'm not one of them. No matter how good an idea you might have to remember that nothing works all the time and there's something wrong with everything. But for your thought and consideration let me speakand seek to explain what I have learned about what I call Zone-Based lLving and how being in the right zone in the right time will be very helpful to you as you deal with what is a rather rugged and challenging way of life right now in which most people are quite tired and don't know what to do. Maybe this 15 minutes might be helpful as a start to get back on track and have a sense of energy in the midst of difficult times. And now let's see what the STOSH has to say about the program. Living in the Zones: How I've Learned to Perform, Transform, and Flourish at Every Stage of Life By Stan Hustad If you're going to survive—better yet, thrive—in today's uncertain, noisy, and sometimes nasty world, you need more than a goal or a five-year plan. You need zones. That's right—zone-based living is not just a quirky phrase I came up with; it's a powerful way to understand where you are in life, what your role is, and how to perform at your best, no matter what stage you're in. This week on the program, I dove deep into the idea that living well in today's complex world demands that we know where we are—not just physically or emotionally, but spiritually and professionally too. These five "zones" I've discovered over years of coaching, teaching, performing, and living... well, they're not only helpful—they're essential. So allow me to take you on a little journey through the five zones of life, with just enough wisdom, wit, and warning to maybe get you thinking, “Hey, I need to figure out what zone I'm in—and how to get to the next one.” The Five Zones of Life 1. The Curiosity Zone This is where we start, where we play, and where we ask a thousand questions an hour. Most of us lose it by the time we “grow up,” but here's the big idea: what if everything you thought you knew... was wrong? Could you live with that possibility? The Curiosity Zone isn't just for kids. It's for entrepreneurs, artists, scientists, and anyone who refuses to accept the world as it is. Stay curious, my friends. 2. The Impact Zone Now you're in adulthood. You're responsible. You're no longer just preparing—you're performing. This is where you grow your audience, build influence, and—yes—make a dent in the universe. It's not enough to exist. You've got to matter. And this is where our modern-day Dale Carnegies are born. Or better yet, reborn. 3. The Transformation Zone Congratulations—you've made an impact! But now it's time to do something bigger. Better. Bolder. This zone isn't about tweaking your brand or reorganizing your sock drawer. It's about radical reinvention. You're not changing because you have to. You're transforming because you can. This is the zone where ideas meet courage. 4. The Generosity Zone If you've made it here, you've succeeded. But the question is, who else has? If your success doesn't lift others, you've missed the point. Generosity isn't just about money—it's about time, attention, mentorship, kindness. Civilizations crumble without generosity. So if you're still hoarding, you're still stuck. 5. The Encore Zone Here's where I live. You don't retire—you re-fire. You've got wisdom, experience, and one more show to give. In fact, some of your best work might still be ahead. (Just ask Michelangelo, who created masterpieces into his 80s.) This zone is about finishing well, leaving a legacy, and making sure the world is just a little better because you were here. Memorable Takeaways - “What zone are you in? And what zone do you need to grow into?” - “You're not just in the marketplace. You are the marketplace.” - “Curiosity didn't kill the cat—it built the airplane, wrote the song, and launched the podcast.” - “Success without generosity is just ego with a good haircut.” - “You're on sale every day. Better learn how to sell you.” Remember This - Curiosity keeps you young. - Impact makes you relevant. - Transformation makes you necessary. - Generosity makes you unforgettable. - Encore makes you eternal. A Call to Action So where are you today? Soul tired? A little lost in the cultural noise? Wondering if you've still got it? Let me tell you something: you do. You absolutely do. You just need a map. And that's what the zone model can be—a compass for your calling, your career, and your contribution. If this message resonates with you, reach out. I'm here for coaching, conversation, counsel, or just a cup of encouragement. Let's figure out your zone—and how to get to the next one. And remember: in a world gone sideways, those who live with purpose and perform with love will always rise. All the best and blessings to you. And as always—live well, finish well, and don't forget to flourish. Let's talk: StanEdWittRadio.net  

What does it mean to feel invisible—and how do we reclaim our voice when it happens?In this powerful conversation, I welcome back listener favorite Erika Petrelli-Bayh to explore a topic that resonates with so many women: visibility. From the “messy middle” of life—menopause, caregiving, career shifts—to early career anxiety and even the later legacy years, we talk about what causes women to feel unseen, and how to shift the story.Erika shares insights from her visibility workshops, including the emotional and practical tools women of all ages can use to reconnect with themselves, their voices, and their power. We talk about:The silent stories we carry—and how to rewrite themWhy shedding outdated beliefs is key to personal growthSimple practices to increase visibility and confidence at workHow hormones and neurobiology impact leadershipPower poses, positive mantras, and the neuroscience of self-trustWhether you're a seasoned leader, a new manager, or simply someone navigating your own reinvention, this episode is a reminder: You are not alone. And your voice matters—more than ever.

Summary"Sin doesn't play fair”In this powerful Sunday morning message, preached just before the Guam Conference, Pastor Joe Campbell speaks with raw conviction and timeless wisdom about the deadly nature of sin. At 83 years old, with over five decades of pastoring behind him, Pastor Campbell calls out the modern culture that seeks to redefine sin and silence conviction.He shares heart-wrenching stories from his ministry—young lives full of promise destroyed by sin, and families torn apart by compromise. But he also declares the liberating power of confession, repentance, and forsaking sin. From his own dramatic salvation in 1971 to witnessing God's faithfulness through every storm, this message is an altar call for a generation at risk of losing its fear of God.

I used to be terrified of speaking on stage. The fear, the pressure, the what-if-I-fail thoughts all used to paralyze me. In this episode, I sit down with Judi Holler, keynote speaker and creator of Speaker School. We talk about how to move through fear, build confidence, and actually get paid to share your message. She shares the tools she used to go from rock bottom to sold-out stages, how to expand your comfort zone, and the mindset shifts that help you own the room. I also share an embarrassing story about the time I tried to pitch Oprah.

In this episode of Running with Wolves, marketing and sales expert Savannah Jordan is breaking down what no one talks about enough: how to actually invest in your business without lighting your money on fire. She's spilling the tea on what to invest in, when it actually makes sense to spend, and how to ask the right questions so you're not left wondering, “Was that even worth it?” or even worse...seeing no ROI. We're talking personal lessons, client glow-ups, and a few horror stories—because not all investments are created equal. You'll learn why mastering your organic marketing (aka knowing how to sell without ads) is non-negotiable, and how to scale smart by looking at your data, not your feelings. If you've ever felt stuck between throwing money at another coach or hiring your fifth VA, this one's your roadmap to spending like a CEO, not a confused creator.   If you have questions about your next investment, MESSAGE Savannah on Instagram, or if you want to talk about investing in her marketing & sales support, submit your application HERE.

Hey Rebel. Today we are revisiting an old episode of the Diet Culture Rebel Podcast. I'm joined by Erica Leon, a registered dietitian and certified eating disorder specialist with over 30 years of experience helping people heal their relationship with food. She is the founder of Erica Leon Nutrition & Associates, a virtual group practice supporting clients across the U.S. Erica and her team specialize in helping individuals heal their relationship with food and body, with a special focus on women in midlife breaking free from toxic diet culture.  Erica shares her personal and professional insights on aging, body image, and food freedom, including what it's like to support women navigating postpartum, menopause, grief, and chronic stress.
