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. Your care and presence help honor the bravery and authenticity that make episodes like this possible.*If you and your partner are interested in receiving a couples session while being part of this mission and contributing to a larger conversation about what it means to grow together and be in conscious partnership, you're invited to apply.

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.

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

Joel 2, Acts 2 // Tyler Marmolejos

The New Year often brings new rhythms and regimens. Many people shake off holiday sloth with new exercise, sleep, and eating goals. It's also a great time to shake off spiritual sloth as Joel encourages us to allow the Spirit to shake up our lives.

This Sunday morning, we will conclude our Christmas-season study of Luke's account of Jesus' birth. In Luke 2:22–38, we meet two faithful elderly saints, Simeon and Anna. Simeon is described in verse 25: “Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.” Anna, an eighty-four-year-old widow, is described in verses 37–38: “She did not depart from the temple, worshiping with fasting and prayer night and day. And coming up at that very hour, she began to give thanks to God and to speak of him to all who were waiting for the redemption of Israel.” Both Simeon and Anna lived with deep longing and confident hope that God would deliver Israel just as He promised throughout Scripture. They eagerly awaited the Messiah and refused to lose hope. This is the kind of faith we long for—a hopeful expectation untouched by the world's evil, cynicism, anger, or anxiety. It is joyful, alert, and ready when Christ appears. This Sunday, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would use this part of the Christmas story to shape us into Simeons and Annas—people joyfully expectant of the Messiah's second coming, just as they awaited His first. Our sermon is titled “Expecting Jesus.” May that be true of all of us. See you Sunday—and invite a friend.

The holidays have a way of bringing people together and with them, familiar patterns, old roles, and emotional triggers. In this episode, Priscilla explores why family dynamics often activate us the most during the holiday season and how our False Authorities are usually formed in the very places we feel the most reactive. Rather than avoiding difficult people or pretending everything is fine, this episode invites you to stop fighting reality and start working with what you already know. You'll learn how to recognize when your child self is reacting, how to respond from your Inner Authority, and how small, conscious choices like adjusting your proximity, timing, or expectations, can help you stay grounded and present. This is not about changing anyone else. It's about staying connected to yourself, navigating the humanness of the holidays with awareness, and leaving each interaction with your integrity intact.

After 9 months (or more) of long silence, when Zechariah's voice was finally restored, the overflow of his heart was to glorify the Lord. The gospel can overflow our own hearts, not only in a specific season or a special day, but all year long, and every day of our lives. What is overflowing from our hearts this Christmas? It's a good question, a question that the good news of Jesus, our Messiah, can help us answer without fear.

In this episode, we explore five situations where a Roth conversion might make sense, including:✔ A lower-than-normal tax year✔ Expecting tax rates to rise✔ Having a long-time horizon before needing funds✔ Reducing future Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs)✔ Lowering the tax burden for your heirsWe'll also walk through a hypothetical example of a couple retiring at 65 with $1M in a Traditional IRA with Social Security income to show how these factors can play out in real life.#RetirementPlanning #RothConversion #TaxPlanning #MoneyNotMath #FinancialEducation #RetirementReady #TaxSmart #EmptyNestPlanning #WealthManagement #FinancialConfidence #RetireConfidently #5StoneFinancialGroup Disclaimer, this content is not legal, tax, or investment advice.

Expecting a baby is stressful under the best of circumstances, but financial uncertainty can make it even harder. Ali Groves, Associate Professor at Drexel Dornsife School of Public Health and Research Chair of the mothers and Infants Cash Coalition, has spent years studying how cash transfers can improve reproductive and maternal health outcomes. Thomas McCullough, assistant archivist of the Moravian Church Northern Province, traced the deep historical roots behind one of Pennsylvania’s most recognizable holiday symbols: the Moravian star. McCullough explained that the Moravian Church dates back to 1457 and originated in what is now the Czech Republic, later spreading across Europe and eventually to Pennsylvania in 1740.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We all want to be self reliant. We'll struggle with a flat tire before calling for help. We'll sink into credit card debt before asking anyone for support. Needing rescue feels uncomfortable. But Micah shows us it's exactly what we need. And it's exactly why Jesus came.

Life rarely goes according to plan — and neither did the first Christmas. In the final week of Hope Breaks In, we look at Mary's story and discover how God often steps into our lives in ways we never saw coming.This message reminds us that biblical hope isn't wishful thinking — it's a confident expectation rooted in the faithfulness of God. When plans are disrupted, fear shows up, and the future feels uncertain, God is still at work. And sometimes, the very thing we didn't expect is the doorway God uses to bring hope, purpose, and new life.If you've ever found yourself saying, “I did not see this coming,” this message is for you. Hope doesn't wait for perfect circumstances — hope breaks in.

Discover why you can expect a "double portion" of restoration and breakthrough this Christmas, even when facing seasons of deep darkness or distress. Lift your eyes to the great light of the Messiah—the Wonderful Counsellor and Mighty God—who turns the gloom of your battles into a complete and final victory.

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. 

In this episode, I answer a question from Deborah about co-parenting, shared custody, and how to support a 12-year-old who doesn't want to go back and forth between homes. I explain why, even at this age, kids are still not comfortable using words to handle emotionally charged situations, especially when feelings are involved. Expecting a child to clearly and calmly advocate for themselves in a tense relational situation often reflects adulthood bias, not developmental reality. I walk through why it still matters for the child's voice to be heard, but how parents can support that in developmentally appropriate ways. Instead of forcing a single approach, I explain how offering choices around how a child communicates gives them ownership, buy-in, and a sense of control. I also talk about why adults often focus too much on a child's words instead of the message underneath, and how shifting that focus can change the outcome of difficult conversations.

One of the best things about this season is the surprises. There are all sorts of situations that may leave you thinking, “Well, I didn't expect that!”  For many, the arrival of John the Baptizer, and the message he proclaimed, is another one of those surprises.

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.

Bryan Gildenberg and Brian Jacobsen look at December holiday shopping after a record Black Friday season. Bryan thinks the latest retail sales are good in context, even as the October report came in flat. We look for change, but “we're really not seeing much,” he says, anticipating patterns to remain as usual. Brian notes that despite the K-shaped economy, lower-income consumers are still spending. He highlights next year's tax refund season as bolstering the “bottom end of the consumer spectrum.” ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this episode, I chat with Kara—a mom of two sets of twins born just 22 months apart—about the whirlwind of navigating postpartum challenges while raising multiples. Kara opens up about the realities of adjusting to motherhood, from the overwhelming logistics of car seats and daily planning to the emotional weight of postpartum depression and anxiety after her first set of twins.She shares how her second experience was different thanks to prioritizing her mental health, building a stronger support system, and learning how to advocate for herself. We talk about the role of doctors and family in postpartum recovery, why communication matters so much, and the gaps in postpartum care in the U.S. compared to other countries. Kara also reflects on the importance of self-care, setting boundaries, and the dream of creating community spaces like motherhood centers to better support new moms.Whether you're a parent of multiples, preparing for the postpartum journey, or passionate about maternal health, this conversation is packed with honesty, encouragement, and practical takeaways for navigating life after birth.EPISODE THEMES

You're doing everything "right." You're eating less. You're moving more. You're cutting carbs. You're even breastfeeding, which is supposed to "melt the weight off," right? Yet the scale isn't budging. Your energy is tanking. Your mood is suffering. And honestly? You're starting to feel like your body is broken. Here's what nobody tells you: The advice you've been following isn't wrong for everyone… it's just wrong for YOU right now. Your body isn't the same as it was before having kids. Your hormones are different. Your metabolism is different. Your needs are different. But the weight loss rules? They're still the same old "eat less, move more" nonsense that's actually working AGAINST you. In this week's episode, Brooke breaks down: Why the "eat less, move more" rule backfires for moms (and what actually works) The real reason breastfeeding alone won't melt the weight off Why cutting carbs is sabotaging your mood AND your milk supply How strength training beats cardio for long-term results Why the scale is lying to you (and what to focus on instead) How to rebuild your metabolism instead of restricting it The truth? Weight loss after baby doesn't have to feel like a battle. When you shift from restriction to rebuilding, everything changes, your energy, your mood & even your metabolism.

Supercomputing has shifted from an esoteric and exotic part of technology to much more mainstream, mostly driven by AI. The massive amounts of computational power that once were reserved for the largest of computing problems in high performance computing (HPC), like weather and seismic analysis, are now commonplace in the world of AI. Analyst Gabriella Brown returns to talk about complex computing problems, quantum computing and photonics with host Eric Hanselman. SC25 has grown to over 16,000 attendees and almost 600 exhibitors, enough to sprawl across St. Louis' Americas Center and into its football stadium. As they mature, the next step in enterprise adoption is working out how all of these will work together. AI is tackling many problems, but quantum could address a whole different class of computing questions. Quantum computing is scaling up and moving closer to becoming a key part of an everyday computing portfolio. Techniques like quantum annealing are finding practical applications today while pure-play quantum approaches are increasing the density and stability of their computing capabilities as they push for quantum advantage, the point at which they're doing things that classical computers can't. New areas like photonic computing were also on display at SC25, as well as all of the supporting infrastructure to power, house and cool HPC installations. As AI clusters head toward gigawatt power dissipation, they require specialized support.   More S&P Global Content: Cybersecurity, talent needs and ongoing adoption were key themes at Quantum.Tech USA 2025 Access to quantum hardware remains cloudy, but more options are starting to appear Quantum computing and the future of data privacy   For S&P Global subscribers: 2026 Trends in Applied Infrastructure & DevOps Information security, cloud and AI vendors stand out as critical to businesses – Highlights from Vo… Quantum Computing Market Monitor & Forecast Quantum computing competitive landscape and market forecast: Expecting $6.5B by 2029 Mea culpa — NVIDIA GTC brings quantum to the stage to help set the record straight Credits Host/Author: Eric Hanselman  Guests: Gabriella (Ellie) Brown Producer/Editor: Feranmi Adeoshun Published With Assistance From: Sophie Carr, Kyra Smith  

In Luke 2, Mary and Joseph bring little, Simeon waits with expectation, and Anna worships faithfully—each encountering Jesus in a different way. This message explores how seasons of waiting prepare our hearts, how God fulfills His promises in His timing, and how meeting Jesus always changes how we leave. The question isn't how you come to Jesus, but how you walk away after you've truly encountered Him.
