Are you ever tempted to panic when rumors swirl about the world ending? In this episode of Seek Go Create, Tim Winders dives into 2 Thessalonians, exploring how early believers faced forged messages and confusion about the "day of the Lord." Discover why Paul urgently reminded the church to stand firm, keep working, and anchor their hope in Jesus' return, not fear. Listen in to uncover the real context behind these ancient letters—and why their message still matters today."Expecting the Lord's return doesn't mean abandoning responsibility. It means living faithfully until he comes." - Tim WindersAccess all show and episode resources HEREEpisode Resources:NT90 Hub – This is the central website for the 90-day New Testament reading plan, with downloadable, printable plans, background information, and links to all episodes and resources.Episode Highlights:00:00 Introduction and Overview00:50 Context and Background of Second Thessalonians02:57 Purpose of the Letter03:09 Key Themes and Messages04:16 Clarification on the Day of the Lord05:14 Reading Assignment and Next Steps05:57 Final Thoughts and EncouragementResources for Leaders from Tim Winders & SGC:

In this second Q&A episode of 2026, I'm joined once again by Joe Bailey for a raw, honest, and deeply practical conversation with men inside our Dad Edge Alliance. We tackle two of the most common—and emotionally charged—challenges dads face: navigating marriage when divorce feels like it's on the table, and learning when to step in (or step back) as parents with our kids.   Joe brings wisdom forged through failure, humility, and redemption as he shares lessons learned from three divorces and what it actually takes to rebuild trust, emotional safety, and leadership in marriage. We also dig into parenting—specifically how often we default to "no," how helicopter parenting robs kids of growth, and how learning to pause can transform our connection with our children. If you're a dad who wants to lead with ownership instead of ego, and presence instead of control, this episode is for you.     Timeline Summary  [0:00] Welcoming listeners to the second Q&A of 2026 with Joe Bailey [1:37] Live Q&A format with Alliance members on the call [2:03] Anonymous question: marriage arguments escalating and divorce being discussed [2:52] Joe shares his experience with three divorces and hard-earned lessons [3:49] Taking full ownership as the leader of the relationship [4:18] Winning the argument vs. winning your wife's heart [5:02] Separating identity from failure in marriage [5:21] Why agreement gives things power over your life [5:40] Emotional safety, being seen, and being heard [6:04] How your inner world creates your outer world [6:55] Why asking "What are you willing to do?" matters more than "Can we fix this?"

You don't have to white-knuckle marriage or fatherhood alone—brotherhood, humility, and consistency change everything.

Rob Haworth, senior investment strategy director at U.S. Bank Asset Management, says that he expects the stock market to overcome the worries and concerns that could make for volatile times, en route to a fourth-straight year of double-digit gains in 2026.  by the time the year is done. Haworth says his target for the Standard & Poor's 500 this year is 7,625, though he says he won't be surprised to see a double-digit decline somewhere along the way. Doug Fleener, author of "Start With What If: Weekly Questions to Spark Immediate Change and Growth," talks about how taking a pause to ponder change, asking a simple what-if question and then making a decision can lead to fresh thinking and life changes by getting people past the habits, fears and mindsets that limit or impact their actions. Plus Chuck discusses President Trump's proposal for capping credit card interest rates at 10 percent, a move the president wants in place by next week. Chuck says that however well-intentioned the idea is — and there has been bi-partisan legislation proposed for this kind of action in the last few years — there would be consequences beyond what shows up on a monthly account statement.

Vance Howard expects 2026 to be a good year, saying the odds of being down are “very minimal.” The market is “too strong” to worry much about the headlines around Fed Chair Powell, he says, but highlights a dovish new Fed Chair in May. He expects two rate cuts this year. Vance anticipates a lot of opportunities for investors across sectors as the market broadens. His picks now include Nova (NVMI), the financial sector ETF (XLF), and the materials sector ETF (XLB).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

The odds are that the Supreme Court will rule against tariffs, says Lance Roberts, but it will actually be good for markets. He thinks it will improve margins for consumer-centric companies, but notes that the boost will be temporary as the Trump administration responds. On the jobs report, he argues the economy is slowing as full-time employment decreases, which could pressure profit margins later in 2026. He's long on growth names still, believing in the AI story, but thinks there could be higher volatility this year.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Ben Connard expects volatility in the short term, partially due to investors feeling out the year. He thinks the market will shift away from big tech in 2026, perhaps into healthcare or consumer sectors. Regardless of a Supreme Court decision, he argues tariffs will be in place for the long term. He tells investors to be careful of concentration and anticipates two Fed rate cuts for the year. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Why do smart, capable people fall for scams even when the warning signs seem obvious in hindsight? In this episode, Dan Ariely joins us to examine how intuition often leads us in the wrong direction, especially under stress, uncertainty, or emotional pressure. A renowned behavioral economist, longtime professor of psychology and behavioral economics at Duke University, and bestselling author of Predictably Irrational, The Upside of Irrationality, Misbehaving, and Misbelief, Dan has spent decades studying why rational people consistently make choices that don't serve them.  We talk about the deeply human forces that shape how we decide who to trust, and how easily those instincts can be exploited in high-stakes situations involving fraud, financial loss, and digital deception. Dan shares a deeply personal story about surviving severe burns and the long process of self-acceptance that followed, using his own experience to show how hiding, blending in, and social pressure quietly influence behavior in ways most of us never stop to question.  We also explore why stress pushes people to search for patterns, stories, and a sense of control, even when those explanations aren't accurate. Dan explains how our minds operate like a "vintage Swiss Army knife," well suited for small, predictable communities but poorly equipped for modern risks like scams, cybersecurity threats, and low-probability, high-impact events. Topics include why near-misses teach the wrong lessons, why authority and urgency are so effective in manipulation, and why expecting people to be perfectly rational is a losing strategy. We also discuss practical ways to slow decisions down and bring in outside perspectives to help design safeguards that work with human nature. Show Notes: [01:52] Dan Ariely joins the episode to examine how human decision-making actually works under pressure. [03:41] How intuition can point us in the wrong direction during moments of stress and uncertainty. [05:26] Trust, authority, and urgency as core levers used in fraud and manipulation. [07:12] When decisions feel overwhelming, the brain's tendency to rely on shortcuts. [08:58] Dan explains why rational thinking often breaks down faster than we expect. [10:34] Near-misses and how they quietly reinforce false confidence instead of caution. [12:09] Why repeated exposure to risk doesn't necessarily make people better decision-makers. [13:55] Stress-driven pattern seeking and the human need for explanation and control. [15:32] Superstition, conspiracy thinking, and what they reveal about uncertainty tolerance. [17:18] Why modern threats like scams and cybercrime confuse brains built for simpler environments. [18:56] The "vintage Swiss Army knife" analogy and what it says about human cognition. [20:41] Authority cues and why skepticism often disappears in the presence of perceived expertise. [22:27] Slowing decisions down as one of the most reliable defenses against manipulation. [24:13] Dan reflects on how behavioral economics challenged traditional models of rational choice. [25:59] A personal story about surviving severe burns and the long path to self-acceptance. [27:44] How hiding and blending in can quietly shape behavior and self-perception. [29:31] Social pressure and its role in everyday compliance and risk-taking. [31:16] Why vulnerability doesn't look the way people expect it to. [33:02] Expecting perfect rationality and why that assumption consistently fails. [34:47] Designing systems that account for human limits instead of ignoring them. [36:33] The value of outside perspective when decisions carry real consequences. [38:19] Practical ways individuals can reduce risk by changing how they decide. [40:05] When slowing down matters more than having more information. [41:52] Applying behavioral insights to fraud prevention and digital safety. [43:38] Why better tools help, but mindset still plays a critical role. [45:24] Final thoughts on working with human nature rather than fighting it. [48:02] What listeners can take away about decision-making, risk, and self-awareness. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

Today marks the first episode in a new series of live couples sessions on the podcast, and I couldn't be more honored to share it with you. In this episode, I sit down with Jacqui and Matt—an incredible couple that was standing at a meaningful crossroads. With a new baby arriving in February, they were contemplating a potential move in 2026. Jacqui felt ready for change. Matt felt rooted where they were.Together, we explored what lay beneath the surface of “stay or go”—the fears and desires shaping each of their perspectives. This session invites us into the tenderness of difference, the courage it takes to stay present through uncertainty, and the process of finding a path that honors both partners rather than asking one to compromise themselves.A note to listeners: Jacqui and Matt have generously opened their lives and hearts to be witnessed in real time, offering you an intimate glimpse into the dynamics, tenderness, and power that live inside conscious partnership. Their willingness to be seen is an act of courage, devotion, and deep love—not just for each other, but for the larger conversation around what it means to grow together.What you hear here is one moment in their evolving journey. As with all relationships, there is more depth and nuance than can be captured in a single session.

Investors will keep focusing on market fundamentals, says Sam Stovall. Though he expects a good year, he warns that historically, we're reaching the end of a pattern for double-digit gains. He highlights tech, utilities, and communication services, and potentially financials. Turning to the Fed, he doesn't expect the first cut until April. He explains what a failed Santa Claus rally could mean for January trading, which often previews the rest of the year.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Getting "back on track" with food and weight can feel exhausting especially when you know what to do, but can't seem to stay consistent. The food noise is loud, self-criticism creeps in, and the harder you try, the worse you feel. For many women, this cycle repeats again and again, leaving them frustrated and disconnected from themselves. In this episode, Leslie explains why lasting change doesn't come from forcing yourself back into a plan, but from examining who you are being. She shares how identity, emotional safety, self-relationship, and fear-based patterns silently shape eating behaviors, weight struggles, and self-trust. When you stay stuck in perfectionism, isolation, people-pleasing, or avoidance, getting back on track becomes impossible no matter how much willpower you use. You'll hear Leslie's personal journey through food addiction, bingeing, weight gain, and emotional rock bottom and how she discovered that food was never the real problem. Through emotional work, hypnosis, and identity shifts, she learned that permanent change begins when you stop fighting yourself and start creating an unconditionally supportive relationship with who you are becoming. When that shifts, food, weight, and consistency naturally follow. "Who you are being determines how you eat, how you feel, and whether lasting change is even possible. You don't get back on track by trying harder you get back on track by becoming someone new." – Leslie Thornton What you will learn from this episode: 00:05 – Why asking "Who are you being?" is the key to permanent change 01:11 – How identity directly impacts food noise, weight struggles, and self-trust 02:18 – Reflecting on past success: who you were being when things felt easy 03:44 – Why passion, obsession, and mission often fade and what that means 04:10 – Why desperation and forcing yourself back on track doesn't work 05:45 – How knowing what to do is different from being able to do it 06:48 – Signs that you're being asked to evolve instead of repeating the past 07:27 – Discovering that food addiction and food drama are not permanent 08:35 – Letting go of the belief that you'll always struggle with food 09:51 – A powerful moment that challenged the identity of being "addicted." 10:36 – The painful in-between phase: binging, weight gain, and confusion 11:45 – Why rock-bottom moments often lead to the biggest breakthroughs 13:27 – Uncovering harsh self-talk and how it fuels bingeing and shame 15:46 – Realizing the problem isn't food it's the relationship with yourself 16:44 – How conditional self-love keeps you stuck in perfectionism 17:53 – Why healing emotionally changes food, weight, and relationships 18:30 – How hypnosis supports rebuilding safety and self-trust 19:13 – Taking inventory of how you're being during stressful seasons 20:15 – Fear-based ways of being that block freedom and peace with food 22:14 – Why isolation, people-pleasing, and overthinking don't work 24:59 – Asking better questions to identify what's really keeping you stuck 26:48 – How awareness creates change only when followed by action 28:27 – Doing the opposite of the pattern that keeps you in the ditch 29:59 – Why action is required to meet the universe halfway 31:55 – The importance of being mission-driven, passionate, and supported 34:27 – How life transitions affect food and weight more than willpower 36:15 – Choosing hard conversations over a lifetime of feeling bad 38:18 – Why food and weight are symptoms, not the root problem 40:00 – Expecting success and believing you're meant to feel good 41:02 – Identifying the life area that's asking for your attention 42:55 – Final invitation: pick up your mat and take action todayValuable Resources: Join my next LIVE masterclass Join the 8-week Fastrack to Food Freedom Program -Guaranteed mental and emotional freedom from food  Connect With Leslie Thornton: Book A Clarity Call Website Facebook LinkedIn Email: Leslie@hpwl.co If you enjoy the podcast, Would you please consider leaving a quick review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes in under 60 seconds?

In this New Year's solo episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan kicks off 2026 with a high-energy blueprint for business coaches determined to make this their best year yet. Karl offers sharp insights on building unstoppable momentum, creating impactful routines, mastering the power of execution over ideas, and developing unshakable resilience, along with a deep dive on AI, stock market bubbles, and actionable strategies to future-proof your coaching business. Key Topics Covered New Year, New Execution (Not New Year, New You) Karl dismantles the myth that a successful year just "happens," emphasizing the need for daily discipline and consistency. He shares why meaningful change is a product of relentless execution, not inspiration or wishful thinking. Maximizing Impact and Reach Expanding your influence means helping hundreds of people, not just your client list. Karl challenges coaches to launch podcasts, webinars, and value-packed emails, but stresses starting immediately, rather than waiting for the perfect plan. From Studying to Training Karl distinguishes between passively consuming knowledge (studying) and active skill-building (training), arguing that mastery comes from thousands of purposeful reps, not just time spent learning. Resilience, Mindset & Not Getting Offended He suggests that letting go of being easily offended is a powerful way to regain control, both in personal and business interactions, fostering stronger confidence and leadership. Goal Setting Versus Desire Management Karl breaks down why our goals and actual desires often conflict, providing concrete examples, then showing how new goals demand reshaped desires and crystal-clear "whys." Elite Leadership & Creating Space for Success The best leaders subtract drama, friction, and obstacles to create a fertile ground for others' success. Karl likens this to both sports coaching and business, advocating for an environment that evolves followers into leaders. The Dangers of Satisfaction: Staying Hungry Karl details the "crocodile after a meal" syndrome, how complacency kills momentum, and highlights stories of world-class athletes who maintain edge and discipline even after major wins. Planning & Execution: The Eisenhower and Munger Lessons He revisits classic advice: "The magic is not in the plan, but in the planning," borrowing from both Eisenhower and Charlie Munger's inversion principle to stress learning from failure as much as from chasing success. AI, Stock Markets, and Contrarian Thinking Answering questions about AI stock bubbles, Karl draws parallels with sports betting spreads and offers lessons from expert traders: when everyone thinks the same, the edge is lost. He advocates humility, diversification, dollar-cost averaging, and the importance of relevant financial literacy for coaches and their clients. Notable Quotes "New Year, New You is not a thing. Expecting next year to change without effort is like going to the marina and looking for an airplane to land." "I don't care about your ideas; I care about your execution. Your consistency and your discipline are mission-critical." "Stop getting offended. The good news? You'll stop being controlled." "Great leaders don't create followers, they create other leaders." "You can get lucky and make it. You can't get lucky and keep it." "The magic is not in the plan. The magic is in the planning." "I want to know where I'm going to die, so I'll never go there." (Charlie Munger) Actionable Takeaways • Start Now: Don't wait for the perfect moment or plan, your first email, podcast, or event is the hardest. Get it out, then iterate. • Measure Reps, Not Time: True mastery comes from consistent, purposeful practice (training), not just learning or clocking hours. • Get Out and Connect: Calendarize face-to-face time and community-building; loneliness erodes long-term success and well-being. • Shift from Busywork to Impact: Educate your list, serve generously in your free content, and only sell after delivering real value. • Build Resilience: Remind yourself that negative feedback or setbacks aren't personal, focus on execution and staying "hungry." • Set Monster Goals, Then Cut Ruthlessly: Aim high, then eliminate 80% of distractions and low-value activities to focus on what really moves the needle. • Use Inversion for Insight: When setting goals (or helping clients set them), ask: "How do I guarantee failure?" Then avoid those pitfalls. • Be Financially Literate for Clients: Understand core investing concepts (diversification, market math, dollar-cost averaging) so you can intelligently field client questions about wealth-building.

Expecting opportunity to knock soon, Gildersleeve's welcomes a visit from judge Hooker. Although they exchange New Year's greetings, Gildersleeve's is not feeling respected. The judge recognizes Gildersleeve jealousy over bronco's…

A lot of people are assuming 2026 will just be more of the same, but what I'm seeing points to a major shift beneath the surface. God is bringing a season of discernment, realignment, and unexpected convergence that will separate voices, clarify direction, and quietly reposition His people. If you've felt a stirring that something is about to change, this perspective may help you recognize what God is preparing you for next.   Podcast Episode 1985: 2026 Is Not Going To Be What Most People Are Expecting | don't miss this!

Start with humility, move with courage, and aim for liberty that actually lasts. That's the arc we trace as we connect the dots between personal faith, public authority, and the conditions that make freedom possible. We open in prayer for leaders, families, teachers, and first responders, then press into the central claim: a society that banishes God from public life cannot keep the fruits of peace, safety, and liberty.From there, we lay out concrete steps. First, renewal starts at home and work: live openly under Christ's authority. Second, confront the civic framework that pushed faith to the margins by reassessing the legacy of Everson v. Board of Education and the way “separation” has functioned in practice. We revisit early American norms that expected public servants to be people of Christian conviction, arguing that character and creed shape public trust. Whether you agree fully or not, the challenge is clear: if freedom has a source, our laws and lives should reflect it.Scripture anchors the conversation. Proverbs 5 casts a hopeful vision for marriage as mutual joy and fidelity. Matthew 8 reminds us of the centurion who recognized true authority and trusted Christ's word without spectacle. Psalm 9 warns that nations that ignore God slide toward ruin, while Proverbs 3 offers a path back through trust, loyalty, and wisdom. We honor courage through the Medal of Honor story of Emmer Bowen at Vicksburg, and we revisit President Truman's 1945 Day of Prayer, where he credited God for victory and called the country to gratitude and a just peace.The throughline is simple and strong: order life under true authority, and freedom follows. Disregard the source, and even the best systems fray. If you find this conversation meaningful, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review to help others find the show.

National Champion defensive back and 97.1 The Fan's Tyvis Powell joined "Afternoon Drive" Wednesday talking about the Buckeyes showdown with Miami and why he likes Ohio State in the matchup.

Rob, Jeremy, and Joe took some time from the opening hour of Wednesday's BBMS to discuss what the Ravens' offensive game plan could look like against Pittsburgh. Should they mirror what they did against Green Bay and lean on Derrick Henry?

Every year you promise yourself a total makeover... and every year you end up exhausted, overwhelmed, and right back where you started. Not because you're not motivated. Not because you don't care. But because you're trying to overhaul everything at once. The truth? Real change sticks when you build one small habit at a time in the right order. In this episode, I'm breaking down why New Year goals fall apart for busy moms and how to create habits that actually support your energy, mood, metabolism, and the version of you you're trying to become. You'll hear: • Why changing 10 things at once backfires • The biggest mistake moms make when choosing habits • The one habit I changed this year that transformed my patience, energy, and confidence • Why morning workouts work even if you swear you're not a morning person • How to stack habits like building blocks so they stick all year This is for you if: ✔ You try to become a brand new person every January ✔ You start strong then slip back into old patterns ✔ You want to feel better than you did before kids ✔ You're ready for habits that support your real life, not drain it A few of my fave takeaways from the episode: "Your brain can't handle too many new decisions at once." "Sometimes staying stuck feels safer than making a change." "Habits work when you build them like blocks with the right mindset behind them." "I don't say I'm not a morning person anymore because I proved I can follow through." Simple shifts. Real results. You've got this

This week, we sit down with Darin A. Lahners to explore the beginnings of his well-known series, What to Expect When You're Expecting: Worshipful Master's Edition. Drawing from his original reflections on preparing for the East, Darin discusses the nerves, doubts, hopes, and early lessons that shaped his first journey as Master. We trace the foundation he laid in that first piece (learning to relax, communicate, believe in oneself, plan with purpose, and invoke the blessing of Deity) and look at how those themes continue to resonate across his later writings. This conversation offers a candid look at leadership, expectation, and what it means to take on the Oriental Chair for the first time. 

On Christmas Eve 2008, eight-year-old Leticia opened the door expecting Santa Claus — instead, she found her aunt's ex-husband in a custom-fitted suit, armed with five handguns and a homemade flamethrower, ready to deliver his final gift to the family.IN THIS EPISODE: (Christmas archives episode from December 13, 2020): We'll look at some of the history of Santa and his cohorts – and how they have all not been as jolly as we know them now. (And You Thought You Knew About Santa) *** And I'll tell you an Icelandic Christmas story that is so creepy that the government was forced to censor it. (The Icelandic Yule Brothers) *** But first, Christmas parties are a time for joy, laughs, and family. A time to be shared with the ones you love. But sometimes, the ones who love us, have a different, more sinister plan. That was the case of Bruce Jeffrey Pardo, the Killer Santa. We begin with that story.
