Andy Baskin and Jeff Phelps talk about what a realistic expectation for the rest of the Guardians season should be, with the club being seven games under .500 and 6.5 games back of a Wild Card spot.
Hour 4 of "Baskin and Phelps" for Tuesday, July 8, 2025.
Hey hey kids—yes, it's another slightly-late-but-definitely-worth-it episode of the FWACATA Monday Motivation Podcast. I know, I know… we missed last week. But it's summer, and without the structure of a school week, I've entered that magical zone where time is fake and weekends are theoretical.So what's today's sermon from the Church of FWACATA? Simple: check your expectations before they wreck your attitude.This week I talk about how something as dumb as traffic, a melted cheeseburger, and a detour involving a pony (yes, an actual pony) can either ruin your day—or make it a reminder that life's pretty damn good.We often get mad because things don't go the way we expected. Not because something actually terrible happened, but because we created some fantasy version of reality and got mad when the real world didn't follow the script. El Paso summer heat? Inevitable. Traffic on I-10? Of course. But somehow, we still let that stuff light our fuse like it's some injustice.But here's the thing: the difference between a good day and a meltdown is sometimes just catching yourself before you go full a-hole.So this episode?It's about petting ponies, swearing at traffic, embracing your inner idiot, and being okay with admitting when you're being the problem.You'll laugh. You'll maybe wince in recognition. And you'll (hopefully) start your week off a little more grounded, a little more grateful, and a little less likely to scream at the guy in line at the post office.
Send us a textWhat happens when the life you meticulously planned is no longer the life you want? Isha Gaye was on the fast track to a successful law career—a path defined by prestige and parental expectation. But a global pandemic and a moment of intense self-reflection forced her to confront a difficult truth: she was pursuing a dream that wasn't her own. This pivot led her to walk away from law school and into the unknown, armed with little more than a passion for African art and a desire to change a tired narrative.In this powerful conversation, Isha, the founder of Afriknoire magazine, takes host Lira Ndifon on her incredible journey of deconstruction and rebirth. She reveals how she battled crippling imposter syndrome to build a platform that celebrates the continent's most brilliant and underrepresented creative minds. This is a story about the courage to start from scratch, the power of building a team that shares your vision, and the slow, essential work of decolonizing your own mind.This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt lost on their path. You will discover:The Art of the Pivot: How to find the courage to abandon a "safe" path and build a life that aligns with your true calling.Beyond the Stereotypes: The vital mission to showcase Africa's beauty and creativity, challenging the persistent, one-dimensional narrative of suffering.Leading with Purpose: How a near-fatal accident and a deep dive into mindfulness taught Aisha to lead from a place of service, not ego.The Creator's Battle: Actionable advice on overcoming imposter syndrome, quieting self-doubt, and trusting the process, even when the future is uncertain.This conversation is more than an interview; it's a testament to the fact that your true purpose often lies on the other side of your greatest fears. It will leave you inspired to not only consume art but to see your own life as the greatest masterpiece you will ever create.This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt like they were living someone else's dream, offering a masterclass in courage, resilience, and the power of art to connect us all.Follow Ishia and Afrik Noire:https://www.instagram.com/afriquenoiremagazine?igsh=MW53ZjZwcnprYzlkaQ==https://www.instagram.com/itsisatougaye?igsh=dzg4MGpjNWdrdzNyIf this episode resonated with you, please show your support by liking, following, and subscribing to the Self-Reflection Podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and wherever you listen.

Mike and Kristen dive deep into Michael Bungay Stanier's The Advice Trap, exploring why our natural instinct to give advice actually makes us worse leaders. This episode reveals the uncomfortable truth: your advice isn't as good as you think it is, and constantly offering solutions is damaging your team and overwhelming your schedule. The hosts get painfully honest about their own advice-giving habits while breaking down the three personas of the "advice monster" - Tell It, Save It, and Control It. They explore the psychological rewards we get from playing rescuer (#winsnotwins) and share practical strategies for staying curious longer instead of rushing to solutions. If you've ever wondered why your team keeps coming to you with problems instead of solutions, or why you feel like the only person holding everything together, this episode will help you understand the hidden costs of advice-giving and show you a better way forward.Highlights:Why advice damages organizations by demotivating receivers, overwhelming givers, and limiting team potentialThe three advice monster personas (Tell It, Save It, Control It) and their shared DNA belief: "I'm better than the other person"Understanding #winsnotwins - the short-term rewards that keep you stuck in advice-giving patterns and why recognizing these prizes is key to changeWhy taming your advice monster requires battling between present you and future you (the adult marshmallow test)The TERA framework for psychological safety using Tribe, Expectation, Rank, and Autonomy to create safer conversationsSix "foggy-fiers" that derail problem-solving, from "twirling" (first problem isn't the real problem) to "yarning" (too much storytelling)Moving beyond single questions to strategic coaching combos that uncover real challengesSpecific language patterns for interrupting conversations without damaging relationshipsHow your background affects when and how you should give away power as a leaderMaking coaching a regular interaction instead of formal compliance meetingsLinks & Resources Mentioned:The Advice Trap by Michael Bungay StanierThe Coaching Habit by Michael Bungay StanierDownload Additional Book Resources from MBS Love & Leadership Episode #9: The Coaching HabitWhat Got You Here Won't Get You There by Marshall GoldsmithThe First 90 Days by Michael D.

Pastor Jack R. shows us that to receive from God, we have to have a posture of expectation. He uses the example of the blind beggar at the gate Beautiful to illustrate his point.
This is Life of an Architect, a podcast dedicated to all things architecture with a little bit of life thrown in for balance. We've all had days where the drawing set grows by thirty pages and the inbox doubles before noon. A consultant goes silent, a client changes their mind, and just when the printer jams, someone asks if you've “had a chance to think big.” The pace is relentless, the roles are blurred, and the weight of expectations never really lets up. Some of it is systemic. Some of it is self-imposed. But all of it demands more from architects than the job description ever promised. Today, Andrew and I are unpacking the stress points, the structural cracks, and the deeply human experience of navigating them. Welcome to Ep 178: Under Pressure [Note: If you are reading this via email, click here to access the on-site audio player] This was an interesting topic to prepare for - mostly because like all of the posts I write, or topics Andrew and I discuss, we ultimately want them to be of some value. While it might be fun for some people to listen to us come onto the show and complain about things for an hour, I'm not sure my partners would appreciate it. So here we are, trying to discuss a topic titled "Under Pressure" and have it NOT devolve into a therapy session. Andrew had this topic on his list and as I was working through topic ideas, the title is evocative. Now that my curiosity was piqued, I started going back through old blog posts and podcast episode to see if I could find a handful of items we had previously discussed that would help provide some structure to our conversation today. 1. The Expectation for Instant Results jump to 05:07 7132 Therme & Spa Vals by Peter Zumthor The pace of architectural production has sped up—clients expect renderings in days, permit sets in weeks. The design process, once iterative and reflective, now must deliver answers at the speed of email. There are a lot of different kinds of pressure in this profession, and over time, most of us come to know them well. Some are situational—deadlines, clients, budgets. Others are structural—shifting expectations, evolving roles, and an industry that sometimes feels like it's changing faster than we can keep up. One of the clearest pressures we face today is the expectation for instant results. Clients, consultants, and even team members are conditioned by technology to expect immediate answers. The result is a process that often skips over reflection in favor of speed. The time it takes to think deeply, test ideas, or simply pause and consider—all of that gets compressed. It's not that we don't want to be responsive, but the design process was never meant to move at the speed of text messages. There's also an emotional cost to this kind of urgency. There's a quiet anxiety in always feeling behind, like no matter how fast you move, it's never quite fast enough. It's especially difficult in architecture, where the best ideas don't always show up on a schedule. When everything is a rush, the design process starts to lose its richness. There's less iteration, less time for feedback, and less joy in discovery. I've had to learn when to push back—when to explain why that extra day might lead to a better outcome. It's not always easy, especially when it feels like everyone else is racing ahead. But sometimes, resisting that pressure is part of protecting the integrity of the work. There is a Peter Zumthor quote I mention at the 12:45 mark that I think is particularly suitable for this bit of our conversation. Points to me for remembering that it exists, points off for me absolutely destroying in my attempts to share it. Read it down below and hopefully they next time someone asks you to work faster, you will be better prepared to articulate why things take time to make properly. https://www.lifeofanarchitect.com/the-finished-building-is-your-best-argument/ 2.

God has good plans for your life and that's the bottom line. You operating within those plans is contingent upon your expectation. In part 2 of this new series Pastor BJ Sullivan teaches on how to move from negative expectation to positive expectation.
06/08/2025: Be not conformed to this world (expectation): Dennis Tucker
Picking up where they left off, Lisa and Kendra G dive even deeper into the lies women are told—and tell themselves—about love, relationships, and self-worth. Part 2 gets into the nitty-gritty of how to stop comparison, heal from toxic relationships, and become the kind of woman everyone wants to be around: truly confident, truly unshakeable. Kendra and Lisa tackle the hardest truths about being “too picky,” the myth that women aren't “complete” until chosen, and how unrealistic expectations derail happiness. They also get vulnerable, discussing the aftermath of heartbreak, the slow erosion of self-esteem in bad relationships, and the moment-to-moment battles to refuse to lower your standards. Expect actionable wisdom on self-assessment, rebuilding after a breakup, and making sure your confidence is built on YOUR foundation—not someone else's validation. Plus, a little fun as they talk about Kendra's dating app and spicy new card game!

The Seattle Sounders turned easily their most disappointing performance of the season. What makes it sting even worse is that expectations were quite high for their game against the Vancouver Whitecaps, who were missing more than half their starters and were coming off a nearly team-wide bout of “gastrointestinal symptoms.” The Sounders responded by looking flat and almost uninterested at times.Jeremiah and Aaron dig into that performance before power-ranking the five teams they each think have the best shots at winning the Club World Cup.Sponsors

Continuing in Romans, this week we're talking about how differently we live our lives when we are in expectation of not just Christ's return, but eternity with Him.
Daily Study: Let's look at having a heart to give to others without an expectation of receiving something back from them. Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com
This week, we’re continuing our series called “Flip the Script.” We have established that the world has a script, a set of expectations that people are supposed to follow. However, the Word of God tells us in Romans 12 that we’re not supposed to conform to those customs and behaviors; if we’re going to be followers of Jesus, we have to live according to His will for our lives and flip the script in every area. Just like other things, the world has a script they want us to follow about money, but the way believers approach money should look different. Our basic understanding of money should come from the Bible. If every good and perfect gift comes from God, there is no such thing as YOUR money. We’re merely stewards of what the Lord has blessed us with, distributing it according to His priorities and principles.
God has good plans for your life and that's the bottom line. You operating within those plans is contingent upon your expectation. In part one of this new series Pastor BJ Sullivan reminds us of what God sees in us, how to apply that truth in every situation we face, and to look to the future with positive expectation!

In hour 2, the Midday Show talks to Ron Jaworski and get his view of some current Eagles players and coaches and what he expects for the 2025 season.
The most powerful force in the universe isn't gravity, electricity, or even love. It's expectation. Right now, in this very moment, people across the world are experiencing wonderful, even miraculous events – not because they're luckier than you, not because they've mastered complicated manifestation techniques, but because they've activated a specific neurological and energetic state that literally magnetizes extraordinary circumstances. This state doesn't require years of meditation or spiritual practice. It doesn't demand perfect thoughts or flawless vibration. It operates on a completely different principle – one that works whether you believe in it or not. We've been taught that expectation is a form of wishful thinking, a passive hope that something might eventually happen. That's not expectation. That's waiting. True expectation is an active force that reconfigures your brain's neural pathways, alters your electromagnetic field, and broadcasts a specific signature that the universe can't help but respond to. The ancients understood this. Quantum physicists are beginning to understand this. And by the end of this activation, you'll not only understand it – you'll be embodying it.

Hey Doc ,This month, I'm doing something a little different. Every episode of Stethoscopes and Strollers in June is for the dads.Not because they deserve a standing ovation.But because they're part of the story. Your story.And I know, this might bring up some feelings.Especially if you've been carrying more than your share of the load.Especially if it feels like you've had to do the emotional labor for everyone, including the person you thought would be your partner.In this episode, I'm talking about what I now understand to be the real issue behind so much of the frustration I felt in early parenthood:The expectation gap.The quiet but powerful beliefs we carry, about how motherhood would feel, what our partner would do, and what we should be able to handle.Where those expectations come from.And why they often go unspoken until we're already at our breaking point.This isn't about letting anyone off the hook.It's about giving you the insight (and tools) to make change — not just in your marriage, but in your household, your nervous system, and your legacy.Inside, I share:
Hour 2- Geoff Calkins on Thibs and NBA Finals, Memphis FPI and Expectation, and Small Talk

Guest Bio: Jena Holliday is the author of Sacred Creativity and a full-time artist, author, entrepreneur, and storyteller. She is the creator and owner of Spoonful of Faith, an illustration and design studio. With just a bit of faith, she walked away from her mainstream marketing job to embrace her passion for art. What started as a hobby eventually evolved into a full-time commitment to spread kindness and hope through her artwork and words. That commitment blossomed into a blog and shop, aptly named Spoonful of Faith, and has thus become not only a successful business but a cultural beacon. Jena has been featured on Good Morning America, Ebony, Essence, People, Nylon, The Wall Street Journal, Yahoo, Artful Living, and many more prominent outlets. Show Summary: What gifts do you think God has blessed you with? Do you see creativity in your gifts? Oftentimes we neglect to notice the diverse ways that God has blessed each of us with creativity. It does not always have to be writing, drawing, painting, or doing a craft. Jena Holliday has found that being creative can grant us a different type of connection with the Lord. Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy Adkins as they learn about sacred creativity with Jena during this God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “Why are you asking everyone else where to go, who to be, and what do except the One who created you?” —Jena Holliday “God didn't make a mistake when He made us who we are. It wasn't by chance; it wasn't a coincidence. It was on purpose. That really helped me to step into the fullness of the voice that the Lord had given me.” —Jena Holliday “What I have learned is that there is a hunger to see the different ways that the image of God is reflected on the earth. It's cool to be in this position as an artist and illustrator because I have the unique role of creating something in a visual way that doesn't require words. It was always important to me that I showcase different women and different images and illustrations of people because I wanted them to feel seen. I wanted people to know that they were loved, heard, and that their stories matter.” —Jena Holliday “You should use [your gift] as a way to honor the Gift Giver, the One who has given it to you. We all have a corner of this earth where we get to use our gifts. Whatever God does to multiply it, that's Him—that's not on us. That's not our responsibility.” —Jena Holliday “If you have something that God has given you and it's still neatly wrapped in a box, I think that's an invitation to open it up, spend a little time with it, and see what He does with it.” —Jena Holliday “Everyone should take the risk to use the gifts that God has given them.” —Jena Holliday “The way that Jesus loves us is so deep is that He will come after you. He will come find you again and guide you back to where He would like you to be and you get to keep walking forward together.” —Jena Holliday Related Episodes: Ep 141: Rethinking Creativity with Rachel Marie Kang: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/rethinking-creativity/ Ep 163: Mindful Creativity with Anh Lin: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/mindful-creativity/ Links: Jena's book Sacred Creativity: https://www.amazon.com/Sacred-Creativity-Inspiration-Reclaim-God-Given/dp/0593581474 Jena Holliday's Website: https://www.spoonfuloffaith.com/ Jena's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aspoonfuloffaith/ God Hears Her website: https://go.odb.org/ghh191 Watch the episode on the God Hears Her YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@GodHearsHerODBM God Hears Her email sign-up: https://go.odb.org/ghh-sign-upsfmc191 Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Shop God Hears Her books and resources: https://go.odb.org/ghh-shop191 Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Our Daily Bread Ministries website: https://go.odb.org/odbm191
"My soul, wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from him." Psalm 62:5 There is an innate power when people live life in a state of divine expectation. There is nothing between you and your miracle, when you approach God with an expecting, anticipating, believing spirit! God has been faithful in your past. And, God will be faithful in your future. What are you expecting God to do in your life? In this series, we'll explore the promises of God and raise our expectations. Expect it!
Mary welcomes back Carl Kerby, creationist and apologist at Reasons for Hope Ministry where equipping a new generation to boldly defend truth is the priority. Today we chat with Carl on two separate topics: "Appreciation or Expectation?", and the one-letter difference between a "Word" view and a "World" view. What are the main things that separate the two approaches - Word and World (besides one lonely letter!) - for our understanding of life? Well, creation for one, which really does establish the ground work for all we believe. Is it chance or design? Other things that separate us from the world are how we value life, our moral base, our identity and our destiny. We also take a look at the difference between "appreciation" and "expectation". One exists in the here-and-now; the other exists in the unknown future and can be a true relationship killer when we presume what we deserve. The opposite of appreciation is insensitivity, disrespect, callousness, and disapproval. If you have ever had a parent who was never satisfied, or a boss who took credit for everything, you know how it feels to be unappreciated, invisible, and devalued. What does the Bible say? All this and more from Carl Kerby, co-creator of "DeBunk'd" videos, "Weapons of Mass Instruction", "Fast Facts" and much more. Their YouTube presence can be found here.

Want To Learn How To Grow Your Territory?? If so → https://www.newtomedicaldevicesales.com/podcastIf you think just applying is enough, it isn't. Everyone wants the six-figure med device job, but most people have no idea what it actually takes to get there. Learn the hard truths about breaking into the industry. Why most candidates fail, what top companies are really looking for, and how to become the kind of person they feel lucky to hire.Key TakeawaysUnderstand that medical device sales isn't like a regular job where you apply and get hired after a couple of interviews. You're going up against experienced professionals and even current reps who want a better gig.Make sure you show up like a professional. Being chill might work with your friends, but it won't land you a six-figure job talking to surgeons and execs. No jeans and T-shirts at interviews. No “lit” or “dog” in conversations.Knowing someone in the industry might get you an intro or a first-round interview, but it won't carry you through the whole process. You still have to earn it. Every company is different, and connections alone won't cut it.You've got to level up your mindset. Don't chase the six-figure job thinking money alone will solve everything. You need to become the kind of person who deserves that paycheck. Companies would feel lucky to hire you.Age doesn't matter as much as how prepared and professional you are. Maturity, attitude, and consistency are what win the job, not your resume alone.00:00 - Start01:12 - EXPECTATION #103:30 - EXPECTATION #205:15 - EXPECTATION #307:34 - EXPECTATION #4
