This episode started with a conversation about the Olympics. When an athlete wins bronze instead of gold, the interviews can feel almost disappointing… like anything less than first place is failure. And that mindset shows up everywhere in life. In health. In business. In relationships. If you didn't dominate, you feel like you lost. Craig and I break down the fine line between having high expectations and destroying yourself when you fall short. How do you stay competitive and driven… while still respecting solid effort? Because here's the standard: Attitude and effort are the expectation. Not perfection. Not gold every time. Between my experience coaching thousands of clients and Craig's clinical therapy background, we help you find that balance so you can push hard, stay grounded, and keep moving forward. If you're wired to win, this one is for you.   Next Level Links: Nutrition Coaching Free Consultations - Schedule Here Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive  Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Co-Host Craig Smith - @greatestdaymindset Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

The guys discuss their expectations for Tyler O'Neill in the Orioles lineup this year.

1. Major Mexican Cartel Leader Killed CHECK OUT the STORY Mexican forces killed Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes (“El Mencho”), leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel. His death triggered violent retaliation across multiple Mexican states, including burning vehicles, airport panic, suspended public transportation, and regional shutdowns. The U.S. issued shelter‑in‑place warnings for American travelers in affected areas. Violence may increasingly target American tourists, especially during spring break. Commentary emphasizes Mexico’s struggle with cartel control and the U.S. pushing Mexico to take stronger action. 2. U.S.–Mexico Relations and Trump Administration Pressure CHECK OUT the STORY Mexico’s action was a response to pressure from President Trump, who warned of U.S. strikes on cartel targets. Broader theme: Trump administration aims to deter cartels, reduce drug trafficking, human smuggling, and violent crime. Noted drops in national murder rates (~20%) and drug overdose deaths (~20%), attributed to tougher border and anti‑cartel policies. Commentary mocks media for ignoring or downplaying these improvements. 3. Advice for Americans in Mexico For those currently in Mexico, the guidance is: Check State Department travel advisories. Follow regional safety updates closely. Contact U.S. government resources if in danger. Hosts recommend being extremely cautious about spring break travel during escalating cartel unrest. 4. Supreme Court Strikes Down Trump’s Tariff Approach Supreme Court decision ruled that one specific statute (IEEPA) does not authorize the tariff method Trump used. Majority opinion written by Chief Justice John Roberts; the prediction on the podcast had expected the opposite outcome. However, the ruling does not prevent Trump from imposing tariffs — it simply means he must rely on other statutes. The conversation outlines multiple other laws Trump can still use: Trade Act of 1974 (Sections 122, 301) Smoot-Hawley (Section 338) Trade Expansion Act (Section 232) Trade Act Safeguards (Section 201) Expectation: tariffs will continue, though implemented via different legal pathways. 4. Political Reaction to the Tariff Ruling China and U.S. Democrats were reportedly celebrating the ruling. Democrats oppose tariffs mainly to politically hurt Trump, not on principle. Expect ongoing litigation from companies seeking refunds from past tariffs—potentially costing billions. 6. Upcoming State of the Union Suggestion that Trump should focus the State of the Union on: Lower crime rates Lower drug overdose deaths “America First” accomplishments Acknowledged cartel takedowns but also keeping the focus on domestic well-being. 7. Olympic Highlights — USA Beats Canada in Men’s Hockey "We got GREAT Dentists" WATCH Hughes video HERE Big national pride moment: USA wins gold in men’s hockey against Canada in overtime. Follows U.S. women also beating Canada in the finals. Jack Hughes (NHL player, Team USA) celebrated passionately about playing for the country. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Resistance isn't the problem. It's the signal.Philippa and Penelope from 4D Human Being are back — and if change is on your radar right now, you don't want to miss this one. Two people who've sat inside enough organisations to know that most change fails not because the strategy was wrong, but because the humans weren't brought along.People don't resist change. They resist being unclear, unsupported, and unconvinced.The Switch Model nails it in three parts: Give people clear direction (Rider)Speak to how they feel (Elephant)Make the new way easier than the old way (Path)Simple framework, genuinely useful — and Philippa and Penelope pull it apart in a way that actually sticks.The conversation gets particularly good when they hit the leadership blind spot nobody wants to admit: you're being watched more than you're being heard. What you do and what you praise moves people faster than any slide deck. Three tools they leave you with that actually work:Three Things for clarity when you do not have every answerVision people can picture and buy intoThe Three Es: Experience, Emotion, Expectation, so everyone knows what is happening, how to hold it, and what to do nextWarm, sharp, and to the point. Whether you're leading change, living through it, or quietly resisting it yourself — this conversation will shift something for you.Less push. More possibility.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​--------ResourcesWant to a FREE taste of 4D OnDemand?Sign up for your 4D OnDemand membership today: https://www.4dhumanbeing.com/4d-ondemand/Follow us:

In this episode of "The Free Lawyer" podcast, host Gary interviews Amy Mariani, a former trial attorney turned mediator and arbitrator. Amy discusses her career journey, the challenges of traditional legal practice, and her transition to mediation. She shares insights on the emotional and practical aspects of mediation, the impact of virtual platforms like Zoom, and the importance of self-reflection and mentorship for lawyers. Amy emphasizes aligning career choices with personal values and offers practical advice for selecting mediators and resolving disputes creatively.For over twenty years, Amy represented individuals and businesses in employment, personal injury, and business disputes. Many of those cases went to trial, but Amy resolved many others through effective and creative negotiation. Her experiences working for regional and national firms exposed her to the unique needs of individuals, small and medium businesses, and multi-national corporations. This in turn gives her insights into their similar and disparate interests and concerns during the mediation process.Since 2013, Amy's mediation skills have saved hundreds of individuals and businesses thousands of dollars, countless hours of time, and immeasurable amounts of stress.Amy's Career Pivot: Motivation and Reflection (00:02:16) Reality vs. Expectation of Trial Law (00:03:24) Law Firm Experiences: Pros and Cons (00:05:36) Advice for Lawyers Feeling Unsatisfied (00:08:50) Overcoming the Mental Hurdle of Career Change (00:11:05) Building a Mediation Practice: Early Challenges (00:12:54) Checkpoints for Career Satisfaction (00:13:47) Transition to Mediation: Process and Distinctions (00:15:01) Amy's Mediation Approach and Pre-Mediation Process (00:17:18) Handling Emotions in Mediation (00:19:31) The Value of Being Heard in Mediation (00:21:57) Court-Ordered Mediation and Emotional Release (00:23:05) Zoom vs. In-Person Mediation: Pros and Cons (00:24:02) Benefits of In-Person Mediation (00:25:12) Trends and the Future of Dispute Resolution (00:27:01) Personal Freedom Through Mediation (00:29:10) The Role of Mentorship and Coaching (00:30:45) Advice for Lawyers Seeking Alignment and Fulfillment (00:32:28) Creative Conflict Resolution and Mediator Selection (00:34:28) Qualities of an Effective Mediator (00:36:04)You can find The Free Lawyer Assessment here- https://www.garymiles.net/the-free-lawyer-assessmentWould you like to learn what it looks like to become a truly Free Lawyer?

What was God thinking when He created marriage? Marriage is God's genius method for transforming us into Christ-likeness. Men have a deep-seated need to be believed in and respected by their wives—a need they cannot meet themselves. Conversely, women need to be cherished above all else, to know they never have to compete for their husband's affection with hobbies, careers, or even good things. When we stop chasing marital bliss as a feeling and embrace marriage as a crucible for becoming more like Jesus, we discover that the very friction we resist is actually God's tool for our sanctification. Pastor Jim Wiegand continues in week three of our new series; "Hands Open, Full of Expectation".

The new Reserve Bank Governor will deliver her first Monetary Policy Statement today. The central bank's expected to keep the OCR unchanged at 2.25%. It's likely to show when inflation should start easing, and when the economy should recover from last year's downturn. BNZ Chief Economist Mike Jones told Mike Hosking today's announcement will likely see them swap out the mild easing bias the bank had in November and replace it with a mild tightening bias. He says they believe the Reserve Bank will probably want to signal a hike by around December this year. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this concluding message of the Expectation Gap series, Karl Ihfe tackles the challenging topic of sin and punishment by examining Luke 15 and the famous parable of the prodigal son. He poses a crucial question: when we sin, who punishes us - God or sin? Through the story of the father and his two lost sons, Karl illustrates that the father's loving posture never changes toward either son, whether the one lost in rebellion or the one lost in self-righteousness. Both sons misjudged their father because sin distorts our vision of who God really is, making us see Him as a judge or accuser rather than a loving parent. Karl explains that sin functions not merely as individual moral mistakes, but as a condition we live under - a state of enslavement that punishes us from the inside out. When we lie, lust, or harbor bitterness, sin itself becomes the punishment, robbing us of freedom, joy, and authentic relationships. God doesn't stand ready to "zap" us when we mess up; instead, like a loving parent warning a child not to touch a hot stove, He calls out warnings because He knows how devastating sin can be. The good news is that God is the restorer while sin is the destroyer, God is the liberator while sin is the slave master, and God's invitation to come home remains constant regardless of how lost we've become. https://bwaychurch.org

We often assume that achievement brings relief.A higher title. Greater influence. More authority.Surely, at some point, the pressure eases.But what if that assumption is wrong?In this episode of The Strategist Is In, Dr. Loren M. Hill explores what she calls “the boulder at the top” the quiet emotional weight experienced by leaders, executives, and high-achievers whose influence continues to expand.Drawing from a candid moment in a high-level leadership gathering, Loren unpacks:• Why the higher the influence, the heavier the expectation• The myth of “arrival” in leadership• The difference between meaningful challenge and structural friction• How competence becomes baseline and often invisible• Why excellence can feel cumulative in some spaces and endlessly resetting in others• The structural roots of exhaustion at the topThis episode continues Season 5's exploration of The Emotional Cost of Excellence, reframing leadership strain as a design issue rather than a resilience failure. Plus: Download the free companion reflection workbook to map where your effort accumulates and where it resets.Dr. Loren M.

Ever notice how one date can hijack your imagination? We're pulling the mask off Friday the 13th and following its trail from medieval warnings and biblical symbolism to stock market lore, slasher-era storytelling, and the everyday rituals people still swear by. With a mix of history, myth, and measurable facts, we test whether the world is truly more dangerous on this date—or whether our brains are simply better at remembering the hits than the misses.We start with the building blocks: why Fridays got a bad rap in old travel tales, how thirteen at a table became a cultural red flag, and when the pairing of Friday and the 13th actually entered print. From there, we track the modern engines of superstition. A 1907 Wall Street novel turned fear into a financial plot. Decades later, a film franchise transformed a day on the calendar into a cinematic shorthand for danger, priming generations to expect jump scares in real life. Expectation shapes perception; once you're on alert, every black cat and creaky stair reads like a sign.But stories don't stand alone. We walk through famous events pinned to the date—Templar arrests, crashes in the Andes and Moscow, an eerie lightning strike at 13:13, a brutal market drop, Buffalo's freak October snow, and the Costa Concordia disaster—then test them against base rates and bias. Some studies hint at higher incident rates, others don't; what's consistent is our selective attention. Even the economy reacts, with estimates of hundreds of millions lost as people skip flights and delay plans. Fear has a footprint, and it shows up in both memory and money.So what do we do with a day like this? We suggest a reset: treat Friday the 13th as a live experiment in critical thinking and community. Keep the fun rituals if they calm your nerves, but pair them with better questions, clearer data, and shared stories that reclaim the narrative. With two Friday the 13ths in 2026 and the close pass of asteroid Apophis in 2029, curiosity beats dread every time. If our choices write the ending, let's make it a good one.Enjoy the ride? Follow the show, share this episode with a friend who loves spooky history, and leave a quick review telling us your best Friday the 13th superstition or story.Thank you for listening to the Paranormal Peeps Podcast.

When to Fast and What to ExpectScripture: Ecclesiastes 3:1—"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven."One of the biggest reasons people struggle with fasting is not desire—it's confusion. They don't know when to fast, how long to fast, or what fasting should produce. And when expectations are unclear, discouragement often follows.Accept Jesus Today: https://youtube.com/shorts/bIwAUlz7Kg4?si=BNOhv44iLWIR4eVJIf you would like to accept Jesus into your heart today, pray this simple prayer:****God, I have sinned against You. I believe that Jesus is Your Son, who died and rose for my sake. I ask you to forgive me for my sin. I place my trust in You for salvation. I receive you as my Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name, I am forgiven! Amen!"****Congratulations! You are now a child of the most high. John 1:12 says, But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. If you just prayed this prayer to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior, I welcome you to the family of God.

In this conversation, Ashley Campbell reflects on the significance of marriage and altars, exploring their spiritual implications. She discusses the importance of communion, the need to test God's promises, and the role of expectation in faith. The conversation delves into God's vision for marriage, the nature of God as merciful and just, and the idea of integrating God's words into one's life as a form of spiritual marriage.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Marriage and Altars02:23 The Significance of Altars in Worship05:46 Understanding Communion and Fellowship09:10 Testing God's Promises12:27 The Importance of Expectation and Preparation15:20 God's Vision for Marriage and Multiplication19:35 The Nature of God: Mercy and Justice24:28 Marrying God: Integrating His Words into LifeTakeaways-Marriage is a lifelong commitment that begins at the altar.-Altars symbolize encounters with God and the promises made.-Communion is about mutual exchange and fellowship with God.-Testing God's promises is essential for true faith.-Expectation is key in waiting for God's provision.-God's vision for marriage includes multiplication and dominion.-Understanding God's nature is crucial for a healthy relationship with Him.-Mercy and justice are both integral to God's character.-Self-reflection is necessary to understand one's relationship with God.-Integrating God's words into life leads to spiritual growth.Keywordsmarriage, altars, communion, fellowship, God's promises, expectation, preparation, God's vision, mercy, justiceConnect with me:https://linktr.ee/daily_encouragement_ashleyRumble Account: https://rumble.com/user/AshleyCampbellFacebook Page:https://www.facebook.com/dailyencouragementwithashleycampbell/Want to purchase a signed copy of mybook?https://buy.stripe.com/7sI8xdg6F2kZgSIfZ6ORRead the reviews on Amazon? https://a.co/d/gwyks9gWant to send me a financial donationbecause you value what I am doing on social media?https://buy.stripe.com/eVacNt3jTbVz9qg4gkWant to join my Facebook group thatwill equip you with the knowledge of the History of the UnitedStates, what the Constitution means and how you can preserve this great nation we live in?Join my paid group today!

We explore Philippians 4:15–20 to show how generous partnership shapes the giver, why attitude matters in sacrifice, and how God supplies needs far beyond money. Fasting becomes a pathway to new victories, deeper anointing, and relationships that last, with all glory to God.• Philippians' unique support of Paul's mission• Fruit credited to the giver, not just the gift• Sacrifice as fragrant offering with right heart• God's supply beyond finances into whole life• Fasting as a catalyst for breakthroughs• Anointing for witness, work, and ministry• Expectation for lasting relationships• All credit and glory returned to GodThanks for listening! Follow us on Facebook or YouTube.

What feels like devastating loss may actually be God positioning us for the breakthrough we've been praying for. When we close our fists around what we have, we prevent God from giving us what He wants us to have. But when we live with open hands, we declare our trust that God sees the beginning from the end. Pastor JD Wiegand continues our new series with the message that inspired it; "Hands Open, Full of Expectation".

In this episode of The Learning & Development Podcast, David James is joined by Andy Storch, co-author of Own Your Brand, Own Your Career, to explore why personal branding has become a central tool for career growth. Andy discusses the workplace shifts that inspired his book and reframes traditional career development, showing how L&D leaders can help employees discover and articulate an authentic professional brand that aligns with both personal values and organisational needs. He unpacks the broader lens of career growth beyond upward mobility - covering lateral moves, reputation, visibility, and the power of storytelling - while offering practical advice on networking, self-advocacy and intentional career moves in today's job market. This conversation is a guide for L&D professionals looking to equip employees to take ownership of their careers, measure the impact of brand-and-career development initiatives and balance individual growth with organisational retention.  Take your L&D to the next level Take advantage of thousands of hours of analysis. Hundreds of conversations with industry innovators and 25+ years of hands-on global L&D leadership. It's all distilled into one framework to help you level up L&D. Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS Your personal brand is your reputation. In a world of restructures and layoffs, you can't wait – build visibility, trust, and a clear story of your value now, so decision-makers know exactly why you're worth keeping or hiring. Helping people build their personal brand makes their value visible. When L&D supports employees to show what they're great at, leaders can spot talent faster, growth feels fairer, and your best people are more likely to see a future and stay. If networking and personal branding feel cringey, reframe them as relationship building and sharing your learning. You don't need to perform - just focus on one genuine conversation at a time. BEST MOMENTS “In the past, there's been this stigma about spending time on LinkedIn or other platforms, about creating a brand for yourself outside of work, and I've seen a big shift in that.” “I've seen people go and build great relationships and get jobs from being able to tell their story.” Andy Storch Bio Andy Storch is an author, consultant, coach, and speaker focused on helping professionals take ownership of their careers and lives. He is the author of Own Your Career, Own Your Life, a practical guide for people who want to stop drifting and take intentional control of their future.

Dr. Read Montague, PhD, is a professor and director of the Center for Human Neuroscience Research at Virginia Tech and an expert in how dopamine and serotonin shape human learning, motivation and decision-making. We discuss how they impact focused effort in the context of short- and long-term goals of all kinds. Also, how SSRIs and low-effort, high-engagement activities reduce the rewarding properties of dopamine, and how AI algorithms are revolutionizing understanding of the brain.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Are you feeding your data into AI and assuming the insights it gives you are accurate? What if those confident-sounding answers are quietly steering you in the wrong direction? More agency owners are turning to AI to analyze and interpret performance data, and for good reason. Used correctly, it can save massive amounts of time and move teams beyond using AI to crank out blog posts, ads, or emails faster. But when it comes to attribution, performance analysis, and real decision-making, AI has a dangerous flaw: it's often wrong with absolute confidence. Today's featured guest understands where most agencies go wrong with AI-driven data analysis. He'll break down why large language models frequently misinterpret marketing data, how flawed inputs and assumptions lead to misleading insights, and what it actually takes to get reliable answers from AI without burning budget or making bad strategic calls. Scott Desgrosseilliers is the founder and CEO of Wicked Reports, a marketing attribution platform built specifically for e-commerce brands doing between $5M and $50M in annual revenue. Scott has spent years deep in attribution, analytics, and now AI, figuring out how to separate real signal from noise in an ecosystem where every platform claims the win. He'll talk about how most platforms may be misleading you and the framework he uses to bring sanity back to attribution for serious e-commerce brands. In this episode, we'll discuss: Why AI is sounds smart but gets marketing attribution wrong. Injecting intention into AI. The Five Forces framework to improve your AI data.

Why AI Sounds Smart But Gets Marketing Attribution Wrong One of the biggest myths around AI is that it's inherently "smart." Scott shared that it took eight months for Wicked Reports to release their AI analyst, not because the tech wasn't powerful, but because it was too confident while being wrong. AI models are designed to sound affirmative. Ask them a bad question, and they'll still give you a polished answer. If you ask ChatGPT if you should jump off a bridge, it'll say, "Yes, that's a great idea," unless you explicitly train it to be critical. That's a massive problem when you're dealing with revenue attribution and ad spend decisions. Another major issue is that AI lacks native understanding of time, which is foundational to attribution. Clicks, impressions, tags, and conversions happen in sequence over days or weeks. Without heavy rules, coaching, and sanity checks layered in, AI can't naturally interpret cause and effect. Left alone, it simply fills in gaps, and those hallucinations can cost you real money. Why Intention and Metrics Matter More Than the AI Tool The first thing Scott's team had to "inject" into the AI was intention. Not all campaigns exist to do the same job. Prospecting, retargeting, direct response, and existing customer campaigns each have different goals and therefore require different scoreboards. If you don't tell the AI what the intention is for each row of data, it will make assumptions. And those assumptions are usually wrong. The "North Star" metrics and leading indicators change depending on what you're trying to accomplish. A prospecting campaign shouldn't be judged the same way as an abandoned cart flow. The second big issue is AI's obsession with ROAS. ROAS is easy to latch onto because it gets rewarded with "thumbs up" feedback, but it's often misleading. If two-thirds of your reported revenue comes from repeat customers via email or SMS, AI might tell you your ads are crushing it when they're not. Simply separating new customers from repeat customers already puts you ahead of 95% of advertisers. The Five Forces Framework for Making Better Attribution Decisions To solve these problems, Scott introduced his Five Forces Framework, (intention, expectation, action, outcome, and optimization) a methodology most agencies simply aren't using. The first force is Intention, which defines both the scoreboard and the timeframe. New customer acquisition might need a 30–90 day window to show results, while an abandoned cart campaign can be evaluated in seven days. Without this context, teams panic too early and kill campaigns that haven't had time to work. The second force is Expectation, which is all about alignment. Brand owners often look at Shopify, GA4, Meta, Google, Klaviyo, and SMS dashboards—all showing different numbers. Without agreeing on a single version of truth, clients freak out and shut down top-of-funnel campaigns after five days because the data "doesn't look good yet." Setting expectations isn't a one-time conversation; it has to be reinforced constantly. Reducing Drama: Use "Scale, Chill, and Kill" to Guide Ad Spend The third force is Action, which includes launching the campaign but only after defining clear boundaries. Scott recommends setting "Scale, Chill, and Kill" zones before you spend a dollar. For example, if your acceptable new customer acquisition cost is $50–$70, that's your Chill zone. Below $50? Scale it. Above $70? Kill it. These predefined rules remove emotion, reduce second-guessing, and dramatically lower what Scott calls "psychic stress" inside agencies and brands. Once campaigns run, the fourth force—Outcome—is simply measuring performance against those zones. Did it scale, chill, or die? Optimization Is More Than Creative Tweaks Most agencies obsess over creative, constantly swapping headlines, images, and copy. For Scott, optimization should be more structured. At his agency, they use a decision log to rank potential actions by impact, focusing on whether the problem is the offer, the creative, the traffic, or the budget. But Scott added a fourth optimization factor most teams miss: signaling. If you don't send the right signals back to ad platforms, your optimization efforts don't matter. Meta, in particular, is very good at claiming credit for conversions it didn't truly drive and if it sees quick conversions, it will chase more of those, even if they're just repeat customers. Training Ad Platforms to Optimize for What Actually Matters To fix this, Scott recommends creating separate events in Meta's Events Manager for new customer purchases versus repeat purchases. That way, ad sets can optimize specifically for the outcome you want. If you're closing existing customers through email or SMS, you don't want Meta learning from those conversions. But when a new customer buys, Meta gets a clean signal and starts finding more people like them. Scott noted that when creative and offer are solid, sharpening signals alone can dramatically reduce acquisition costs within a month. You can even go deeper by signaling based on SKU types, allowing platforms to optimize toward higher-quality or more strategic purchases—not just any conversion they can grab credit for.
