"Mediocrity works fine until it meets passion" says a favorite sign on the wall of this week's guest, on for the third time, Jenny Levy. Everytime she joins us we are blown away by what she shares. This week is no exception. Jenny is a 4x NCAA champion coach for the University of North Carolina Women's lacrosse program, including winning the 2025 championship. She is a 3x NCAA coach of the year, 8x ACC coach of the year, former Team USA head coach, and both the National and International Lacrosse Hall of Fame inductee. Heading into 2026 she has 443 wins (2nd all time) and has led the Tar Heels to 14 Final Fours. What makes Jenny most special, however, is her curiosity and authentic, relationship based leadership model. This week she shares with us the importance of failing forward as part of the Tar Heel culture, how she recruits players who are a good fit for the program, and how the selfish players get spit out if they do not become players who learn to give to the team. We discuss the importance of building relationships through casual conversations rather than long meetings, how winning is a by product of the journey, and so much more.

Episode Description:What's scarier than Halloween a week early? Police in Pennsylvania finding cocaine in a kid's trick-or-treat bag—and someone out there is panicking over their missing Reese's swap. On today's Sandy Show, Sandy McIlree and Tricia unpack the wildest Halloween headlines, from New York City's crown as the #1 trick-or-treat town (thanks to walkability, candy stores, and zero doorman full-size bars) to Jerry Seinfeld's timeless rant: “Bing bong, come on lady—let's pick up the pace!” But the heart-stealer? 95-year-old Frank Ures Jr., who launched a 100-member Taylor Swift fan club at his Omaha retirement home—complete with walker license plates, sponsorship rules, and a plea for Taylor to “please come see us.” (Travis Kelce's permission required for hugs.)Meanwhile, 13-year-old Kevin Tang just won $25,000 as America's Top Young Scientist for Fall Guard—an AI camera that auto-calls 911 when grandma falls, no button needed. Inspired by tragedy, built by a middle-schooler.Tricia earns the Gold Star for defining the hobo hierarchy: “A hobo is a traveling bum.” Sandy drops Big Mac origin bombs (started as The Aristocrat—too bougie, renamed twice), and the duo debates why that orange marshmallow peanut is the ultimate Halloween red flag.Notable Quotes:“Someone's out there holding a Reese's instead of their baggie of cocaine.” – Sandy“I'd give Taylor a hug—with Travis Kelce's permission.” – Frank Ures Jr., 95“Bing bong, come on lady—18 houses on this block alone!” – Jerry SeinfeldCall-to-Action:Don't miss the full chaos—search The Sandy Show on your podcast app RIGHT NOW.

Even with all the AI training apps and free workout programs out there, real coaching still matters. In this episode of Barbell Logic: Beast Over Burden, Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson explain why coaching remains essential for lifters who train for strength, health, and longevity. They explore how personalized feedback, accountability, and real human judgment can never be replaced by algorithms or templates. Through a live Q&A, they answer listener questions about core strength, nutrition, joint pain, and mindset—and show how consistent, adaptable coaching leads to lasting results. You'll learn why a good coach helps you navigate life's changing variables, how to train smarter as you age, and how to stay consistent in both your workouts and your nutrition. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced lifter, this conversation will remind you that you don't need to compete to need a coach. Coaching isn't just for elite athletes—it's for anyone who wants clarity, consistency, and confidence in their training. Strength for life isn't built through perfect programs; it's built through guided progress and real accountability. What You'll Learn In this live strength and nutrition Q&A, you'll discover: Why AI and free training templates can't replace a coach. How to build stronger core stability through barbell movements. A simple meal plan built around real food (and sandwiches). How to train around joint pain without giving up progress. The difference between group and one-on-one coaching—and which might fit you best. How coaching can transform not only your training, but your life outside the gym.

We break down a simple, repeatable system that turns chaotic to-do lists into consistent output you can trust, even on messy weeks. From habit stacking to time blocking, you'll hear a practical path to create, measure, and refine content without relying on willpower.We walk through the workflow we use to batch video, pull audio for the podcast, and expand it into SEO-friendly blog posts—all from the same recording day.

Then we map content to the growth journey: teaching content for visibility, client stories to nurture momentum, and proof-driven pieces—testimonials and specifics—for conversion. The result is a content engine that stays aligned with goals and delivers steady progress.You'll also get a clear three-step framework: simplify by choosing your primary aim, build structure with repeatable routines and metrics, and schedule the work into realistic time blocks. We dig into batching strategies, file and naming conventions, and how to analyze performance so you can double down on what works. If you're juggling family, shifting energy, or a packed calendar, this approach gives you a calm, predictable pipeline that compounds over time.Ready to trade motivation spikes for a system that ships?

Form 1099-K applies to individuals who earn money through gig work or sell goods online. Third-party settlement organizations (TPSOs)—including platforms such as Amazon, eBay, PayPal, and Venmo - must send copies of the form to both the IRS and taxpayers, detailing the total payments received for goods and services. Return to the Pre-2021 Standard Before 2021, TPSOs were required to issue a Form 1099-K only if a seller received more than $20,000 and conducted at least 200 transactions during the year. The 2021 American Rescue Plan Act lowered that threshold to $600, triggering widespread criticism from taxpayers and digital-payment platforms who warned the rule would swamp casual sellers with unnecessary paperwork. The IRS initially attempted to phase in the lower limit—proposing $5,000 for 2024, $2,500 for 2025, and $600 from 2026 onward—but the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed by President Donald Trump on July 4, permanently repealed those reductions. As a result, TPSOs are again only required to issue Form 1099-K if both of the following are true: The gross payments to a payee exceed $20,000, and The number of transactions exceeds 200.

Most taglines don't work. They sound clever, but when customers see them, nothing happens. No interest, no sales, just crickets. That's because most taglines are vague, confusing, or forgettable. And when people have to burn mental calories trying to figure out what your business actually does, they'll just move on to the next option. If your tagline isn't clearly offering something your customer wants, it's not helping you. It's costing you. So how do you make sure your tagline actually drives results? This week, Donald Miller and Kyle Reed break down why most taglines fail and reveal the simple formula that makes a tagline work. You'll hear real-time critiques of famous (and not-so-famous) taglines, learn how to avoid common mistakes, and get insider tips on crafting a line that actually grows your business.

What's the real ROI of a book? That's the question Peter Winick poses to Chief Imaginative Officer of Emerson Consulting, author of "The Expert's Edge: Become the Go-To Authority People Turn to Every Time" and publishing expert Ken Lizotte, in this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership. Ken has helped more than 350 thought leaders turn their ideas into published works—books, blogs, and articles that position them as authorities in their fields. He's seen it all: the excitement of a new book idea, the confusion around agents and publishers, and the reality that the book itself isn't the profit center—it's the door opener. Ken breaks down the evolving world of publishing—traditional, hybrid, and self-publishing—and reveals how authors can choose the right path based on their business goals. He and Peter cut through the myths about literary agents, unpack how the publishing game really works, and share why alignment between author and publisher is so rare (and so essential). More importantly, Ken makes it clear that a book's success isn't measured in units sold—it's in how well it builds credibility, opens doors to speaking gigs, attracts clients, and establishes long-term brand authority. Whether you're dreaming about your first book or looking to turn ideas into influence, this conversation will show you how to treat your book as a strategic asset, not just a creative project. Three Key Takeaways: • A Book's True ROI Isn't in Sales—It's in Strategy. The financial return on a nonfiction book rarely comes from copies sold. Instead, it comes from what the book enables: paid speaking gigs, consulting work, and business growth. A book is a credibility tool, not a revenue product. • Authors Must Choose the Right Publishing “Game.” Traditional publishing, hybrid, and self-publishing each serve different goals. Ken stresses that authors need to decide early whether they're playing the publisher's game (focused on sales volume) or their own game (using the book as a business and thought leadership tool). • A Great Book Builds Authority, Not Just Audience. The most successful thought leaders use their books to define expertise, attract the right clients, and create long-term influence. The focus shouldn't be on pleasing everyone—it's about reaching the specific audience where your ideas have the greatest impact. If you're fired up by Ken Lizotte's strategies for making a book a business-building tool, then you'll definitely want to hear Lucinda Halpern's episode too. In it, Lucinda debunks the myths that trap many thought leaders—like thinking an agent guarantees a book deal, that publishers will handle all marketing, or that you need huge social media numbers to get published. You'll walk away with clearer insight into publishing timelines, how to build a platform that matters, and how to make a book a lead-generation engine, not just a creative side project. Tune in and get sharper on how to align your ideas, your reach, and your publishing strategy—all toward real growth.

On this episode of Brain Driven Brands, Sarah's bad haircut spirals into a four-week behavioral case study—and an accidental masterclass in consumer psychology. From identity triggers (“am I that kind of person?”) to timing misfires and disqualifying sales moments, this story exposes how every brand loses money by misunderstanding when a buyer is ready—not why. In this episode of Brain Driven Brands, Sarah and Nate dissect: → Why “when” your customer feels safe matters more than “why” they buy. → How bias, timing, and trust signals silently make or break conversions. → The $2,000 mistake one salon made that every brand repeats online. If you've ever wondered why great products don't convert—or how to fix the sequence that kills your sales—this is your wake-up call.

A Parenting Resource for Children’s Behavior and Mental Health
When a child feels overwhelmed, their autonomic nervous system kicks into a stress response. Logic shuts down, emotional regulation goes offline, and no punishment in the world can teach better behavior in that moment. That's why we have to calm the brain first. When we do, co-regulation creates emotional resilience, nurtures healthy relationships, and supports lasting nervous system regulation—for our kids and for us.In this episode, I share why nervous system co-regulation beats consequences every time and how you can begin using simple, practical strategies to help your child move from survival mode into a calmer, more regulated state.Why don't consequences work when my child is dysregulated?When kids are in meltdown mode, their autonomic nervous system is in fight-flight-freeze. Logic and reasoning are shut down.Punishment adds shame and fear—which makes behavior worse, not better.A stressed brain can't learn. The sympathetic nervous system is in survival mode.Regulation must come before correction. Calm brains are the only brains that can take feedback.Behavior is communication. If your child is screaming, throwing things, or shutting down, it's their nervous system saying, “I feel unsafe.”How can I calm my child's brain when they're overwhelmed?Co-regulation begins with your nervous system. You can't expect a child to self-regulate if you're dysregulated too.Anchor yourself first: use deep breaths, a soft tone, or grounding mantras.Offer presence over words. Sometimes just eye contact, gentle rhythm, or physical closeness (like deep pressure hugs) communicates safety.Avoid escalating threats. Instead of, “You're losing your tablet all week,” try, “I see you're overwhelmed. Let's breathe together.”Use environmental signals. Soft voice, calm body language, and steady breathing send cues of safety to your child's nervous system.Co-regulating teaches children over time that they can move from dysregulation to calm with supportive relationships.Want a calmer home in just one week? Try Quick Calm—your 7-day reset designed to help busy parents raise a more regulated child.What does nervous system co-regulation look like in real life?Parents often ask, “But what do I do when the meltdown starts?” Here's what it looks like in daily life:Less talking, more being. Put down the lecture until your child reaches a regulated state.Mirror calm. Your facial expressions and body language send powerful signals through mirror neurons.Stay nearby. Instead of sending your child away (“Go calm down in your room”), model calm by staying present.Shift from red to yellow to green. Once they move out of the red zone of survival mode, you can use words to guide them back to balance.These small but profound effects build emotional connection and nurturing relationships—the foundation for healthy child development.You don't have to figure this out alone.Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP and get your FREE Regulation Rescue Kit: How to Stay Calm When Your Child Pushes Your Buttons and Stop Oppositional Behaviors.Head to www.drroseann.com/newsletter and start your calm parenting journey today.How can co-regulation help me as a...

So you're doing everything “right.” You're eating better, moving your body, and feeling good — finally seeing some real progress. Then suddenly… you find yourself skipping workouts, eating junk food, and wondering what the hell happened. You want this so badly. If motivation alone could fix it, you'd be done by now. So why do you keep getting in your own way every time things start to click? It's not because you're lazy. It's not because you lack discipline. It's because something deeper is happening underneath the surface. In this episode of Fitness & Sushi, I'm breaking down the three real reasons you self-sabotage — and how to finally stop fighting yourself so you can make lasting progress that actually feels good. If you've ever wondered why you can't seem to “stick with it,” this episode will help you make sense of it all — and show you how to start building habits that last.

In the fourth and final installment of this Shoptalk series, host David Carothers and Zane Goldthorp of ProWriters tackle a critical issue facing agents every day: the vast difference between a standalone cyber policy and a simple BOP or package endorsement. They call out the laziness of settling for an endorsement, highlighting the massive coverage gaps it leaves and the E&O exposure it creates for the agent. Zane shares real-world horror stories of agents discovering their client's six-figure loss wasn't covered by their BOP. The conversation provides a clear, strategic path for agents to transition clients to proper coverage and use the inadequacy of endorsements as a powerful competitive wedge against other agents. Key Highlights: Standalone Policy vs. BOP Endorsement: A Massive Chasm The core of the episode is a stark warning: a BOP endorsement for cyber is not real protection. Zane explains that when compared side-by-side, endorsements lack critical coverage, have minuscule sublimits for events like social engineering, and often omit coverage entirely for sophisticated attacks like invoice manipulation, leaving clients dangerously exposed. The E&O Nightmare of "Good Enough" Coverage Zane shares his experience taking calls from frantic agents whose clients have suffered a major loss, only to find their BOP endorsement is useless. These situations not only lead to losing the client but also put the agency's own E&O policy on the line for failing to provide adequate counsel and coverage. Cyber as the Ultimate Competitive Wedge If you're prospecting an account and discover their current agent has them on a BOP endorsement, it's "game over." David and Zane explain how an agent with a standalone offering can easily tear the endorsement apart, create immense doubt in the incumbent, and win not just the cyber business but likely the entire account. Breach vs. Privacy vs. System Failure The conversation clarifies that a cyber claim doesn't always require a security breach. Standalone policies respond to a wider range of events, including privacy breaches (like a lost laptop) and dependent system failures. Using the real-world CrowdStrike outage as an example, they illustrate a massive business interruption scenario that would be covered by a standalone policy but never by a BOP.

Dennis is joined by his friend Steven Reigns to talk about his new collection of poetry, Outliving Michael, which is about a friend of Steven's named Michael Church who died of AIDS in 2000. Steven talks about meeting Michael first as his drag persona Blanche before getting to know him out of drag and becoming close friends. Steven reads several poems and talks about what made Michael so unique, from his withering wit to his love of gay nightlife (Michael was a bottle boy at Studio 54 for a summer) to his support of Steven as a writer. Steven also talks about what it was like to be a caretaker for Michael and why he feels like he would be much better at it today. Other topics include: Steven's ongoing art project The Gay Rub, where he collects rubbings from LGBTQ gravestones and monuments from around the world, how he knows when a poem is finished, whether or not that is cocaine on the coffee table pictured of the book cover and what he thinks Michael would think of Outliving Michael. https://www.stevenreigns.com/

Trending with Timmerie - Catholic Principals applied to today's experiences.
Image via Gilbert Parmonangan / Shutterstock. At Charlie Kirk’s public memorial in Arizona, his widow Erika urged mourners to “mark your soul again and again” through daily choices for Christ, quoting Charlie’s journal about how each decision leaves a mark on the soul. Timmerie guides you through Erika’s faith-filled call to prayer, Scripture, Sunday worship, and perseverance under trial. What happened at the memorial The tribute took place at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona on Sunday, September 21, 2025. You might have seen Erika’s address, which many described as the most moving moment of the day. Her message centered on grace, forgiveness, and a life set apart for God. The heart of Erika’s message, as Timmerie highlights Timmerie zeroes in on a small, potent line from Charlie’s journal that Erika read aloud: “Every time you make a decision, it puts a mark on your soul.” From that seed, Erika invited people to "choose Christ again and again. Pray again. Read Scripture again. Go to Sunday Mass again. Break from the shackles of sin. She reminded everyone that discipleship is hard, and that Jesus promised the cross, not comfort. Timmerie then connects Erika’s call to the sacramental life. When good choices bring us close to Christ, we stay grafted to the Vine. When sin stains the soul, Confession restores us. This is classic Catholic spirituality: repeated acts that train love and form the will. And it is for every state of life, not only for public figures like Charlie Kirk. “Mark your soul” in Catholic terms -Prayer each day. Short prayers through the day keep the heart near God. -Scripture each day. The Gospels shape our choices and our speech. -Sunday worship every week. We keep the command – we receive the Lord. -Confession as needed. Grace wipes the stain and strengthens resolve. -Small sacrifices often. Love costs. The cross is our sign. Erika’s counsel matches time-tested Catholic practice. It turns grief into intercession, it turns shock into witness, and it builds a community that helps new believers grow. Here are some practical things you can do this week to practice holiness: -Welcome the seeker next to you at Mass. -Invite one person to pray with you this week. -Make the sign of the cross before meals – in public – with quiet courage. -Choose the good again. Then choose it again tomorrow. The saints made saints. That is how grace spreads – it starts with one small choice that leaves one clear mark on one willing soul.
