If episode seven was about converting conversations into contracts, episode eight is about increasing deal flow — and knowing how to analyze opportunity when it hits your desk.   In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel break down what happens when consistent action finally compounds. After months of hesitation, Dan hires a virtual assistant — and within two weeks, four legitimate storage opportunities land in his pipeline.   Alex and Dan unpack why hiring a VA took eight months, what mindset blocks were holding Dan back, and how leveraging the Storage Wins community made the transition easier. From there, they dive deep into one specific 36,000 square foot facility, walking through back-of-the-napkin underwriting, cap rate analysis, seller motivation, and how to think about value-add potential the right way.   This episode isn't just about hiring help. It's about understanding leverage — leverage of time, leverage of community, leverage of terms, and leverage of upside inside the deal itself.   You'll Learn How To: Use a virtual assistant to dramatically increase deal flow Overcome hesitation around hiring and delegation Underwrite a storage deal using simple back-of-the-napkin math Analyze revenue, expenses, and NOI quickly on a seller call Identify upside through rate gaps and unsophisticated operations Use seller financing terms to increase purchasing power Control deal structure by focusing on terms, not just price Incentivize your VA to create long-term leverage   ⸻   What You'll Learn in This Episode:   [0:00] Why cash flow in storage "depends" [1:08] The Season 2 mission: closing before Thanksgiving 2025 [3:02] Hiring a VA after eight months of hesitation [6:42] The fear of training and financial commitment [7:30] Why $70 per week created massive leverage [9:01] Leveraging community to solve hiring challenges [12:42] Four new facilities added to the pipeline in two weeks [13:40] Why mom-and-pop operators create opportunity [15:36] Reducing expenses vs. increasing revenue [18:40] Explaining debt service coverage ratio to sellers [21:38] Breaking down a 36,000 sq ft deal opportunity [34:58] Back-of-the-napkin NOI calculation using a 35% expense ratio [35:54] Applying an 8 cap to determine baseline valuation [36:48] Spotting 50% rate gaps vs. competitors [39:28] Matching a $2M offer with better positioning [41:52] "Your price, my terms" explained [45:08] Why incentivizing your VA accelerates growth   Who This Episode Is For: Investors stuck trying to do everything themselves Listeners who want more deal flow but feel time-constrained Anyone unsure how to quickly analyze a storage opportunity Operators learning how to structure seller-financed deals Investors ready to move from slow progress to momentum ⸻   Why You Should Listen:   Momentum changes everything.   Dan didn't suddenly get lucky — he created leverage. By hiring a VA and leaning into community support, he multiplied his outreach and surfaced four serious opportunities in two weeks.   This episode shows you exactly how to think through a real deal: how to estimate NOI, apply cap rates, spot value-add potential, and structure terms that increase purchasing power. If you've ever wondered how experienced investors quickly evaluate deals while staying disciplined on risk, this is a real-time masterclass.   And perhaps most importantly — it proves that sometimes the biggest breakthrough isn't a signed contract. It's the decision to stop doing everything yourself. ⸻ Follow Alex Pardo here: Alex Pardo Website: https://alexpardo.com/ Alex Pardo Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexpardo15 Alex Pardo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexpardo25 Alex Pardo YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlexPardo Storage Wins Website: https://storagewins.com/   ⸻   Have conversations with at least three storage owners, brokers, private lenders, or equity partners inside the Storage Wins Facebook Group.

Buying a business isn't just about finding the right opportunity. It's about structuring the deal in a way that works for everyone involved. In this week's episode of Business Buying Strategies, Jonathan hands the microphone to his dealmaking partner Martin, who shares insights from a live webinar with Dealmakers clients. Martin has been directly involved in hundreds of acquisitions and is currently negotiating multiple deals himself. In this session he explains how real deals are structured, how negotiations actually unfold, and what funding strategies are working in today's market.  This episode is packed with practical advice drawn from real negotiations happening right now. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why negotiation skills matter more than clever deal structures Many new dealmakers become fascinated by complex deal structures. But Martin explains that the structure itself is rarely the difficult part. The real skill lies in negotiating terms that work for both sides. Successful negotiators focus on three outcomes: • Getting the business cheaper • Getting better payment terms • Getting more value for the same price When you negotiate with these principles in mind, both sides feel they've achieved a good outcome. Why deal structure can change a business's value dramatically One of the most striking insights from the episode is how the same business can be valued very differently depending on the deal structure. Martin shares a real example where four potential deal structures valued the same business between £1.2 million and £3 million. Nothing about the business itself changed. Only the structure of the deal. Ironically, the structure with the highest valuation turned out to be the best deal for the buyer because it produced significantly stronger annual cashflow. It's a powerful reminder that: Price alone never tells the full story. Why preparation matters – but expecting the unexpected matters more Many first-time buyers believe they need to be perfectly prepared before approaching a seller. Martin explains why this mindset can hold you back. In real negotiations, unexpected moments happen constantly. He shares a story about visiting a potential acquisition target and discovering—mid-conversation—that the seller spoke Danish, which unexpectedly became a useful rapport-building moment. The lesson? You cannot prepare for every possible outcome. But you can stay flexible and genuine. The difference between objections and buying questions A key negotiation skill is recognising the difference between: An objection and A buying question Often when sellers raise concerns, they are not rejecting the deal. They are simply participating in the buying process. For example, when a seller asks: "How do I know you'll actually pay me the deferred payments in the future?" This is usually a buying question rather than resistance. Martin explains how to respond by: • Sharing your long-term vision for the business • Explaining why reputation matters for future acquisitions • Highlighting legal protections within the deal Handled correctly, these moments can build trust rather than derail negotiations. The most common funding options used in acquisitions Funding a deal doesn't always require traditional bank loans. Martin outlines several financing options frequently used in acquisitions:   Invoice Finance One of the easiest and most flexible funding sources, especially for B2B businesses. Asset Finance Funding secured against equipment, machinery or vehicles within the business. Bridging Finance Often used when property assets are involved. Cashflow Lending Possible but generally riskier because it relies solely on the borrower's ability to repay. Interestingly, Martin's preference is often no external finance at all, using seller-funded structures instead. These can dramatically reduce risk for the buyer. The danger of majority share purchases Another important insight relates to buying majority stakes instead of full ownership. Martin warns that shared ownership can lead to serious problems if the relationship between directors breaks down. Whenever possible, buying 100% of the business is usually the cleaner and safer option. If a minority stake remains, it's essential to agree upfront how future exits will be handled. How to handle seller concerns about deferred payments One of the most common objections sellers raise is concern about receiving payments years into the future. Martin explains how to reassure sellers by emphasising: • Your long-term strategy for the business • The reputational damage of failing to honour agreements • Legal protections within the share purchase agreement • The mutual incentives to make the business succeed When positioned correctly, deferred payments become a shared success model, not a risk. Key Takeaway The biggest misconception about buying businesses is that deals depend on complicated financial engineering. In reality, successful acquisitions come down to three things: • Strong negotiation skills • Smart deal structures • Clear alignment between buyer and seller Master these, and opportunities open up quickly. If you want to understand how real deals are negotiated and funded in today's market, this episode is essential listening.

Chuck Todd breaks down the Texas primary results and finds a political landscape that should terrify the Republican establishment. Ken Paxton and John Cornyn are headed to a runoff on the GOP side, but the headline number is stunning: Democrats posted a higher overall vote total than Republicans in the Texas primary, a seismic signal in what has long been the country's biggest red state. He credits Talarico's viral Colbert moment with giving him a massive boost, notes that Latino voters broke decisively for Talarico over Jasmine Crockett — who ran an unconventional campaign and is unlikely to concede quickly — and argues that a Paxton vs. Talarico general election would genuinely put Texas in play. He walks through the strategic calculus: history favors Paxton in a runoff, Cornyn has outperformed polling but a Cornyn nomination would draw less national Democratic investment in the race, and Democrats should have the budget to compete in Texas regardless — because Texas is "nice to have" for Democrats but "must have" for Republicans, and if Democrats win even once there, it opens the floodgates. He also flags Dan Crenshaw losing after failing to secure Trump's endorsement, the razor-thin two-vote margin for the state senate campaign in North Carolina, and a broader pattern of bad developments piling up for the GOP — capped by Trump stoking voter skepticism with an unpopular Iran war. His verdict: this is the worst possible start to an election cycle for Republicans, because it's easy to start a war and very hard to end one. Then, Oscar-nominated filmmaker Josh Seftel joins the Chuck Toddcast to discuss All the Empty Rooms, his devastating Netflix documentary short that chronicles the untouched bedrooms of children killed in school shootings since Sandy Hook. Seftel describes a country that has grown numb to over 100 school shootings just this year — where the reporting cycle moves on before victims' stories can truly be told — and explains how the simple, visceral act of standing in a dead child's bedroom forces viewers to feel something that statistics never could. He reveals that many parents have kept these rooms exactly as their children left them, preserving even the smell, creating what amounts to sacred spaces frozen in time.Chuck draws the parallel to the decision to show Emmett Till's open casket, and Seftel argues these painful stories must be told regardless of how uncomfortable they make us, because imagery can be more powerful than the spoken word. What makes the film's approach so striking — and so strategically effective — is what it leaves out. The word "gun" is never mentioned, a deliberate choice to avoid triggering the political reflexes that shut down conversation before it starts. And it's working: Seftel shares that a Second Amendment enthusiast changed his mind after seeing the photos of empty rooms, and even a Sandy Hook denier reached out after watching. The film's funders didn't want to make money — they wanted to make change — and Netflix's global distribution has given it a massive reach. Seftel says the conversation has to start with one simple question — "How do we keep kids safe at school?" — and that the film intentionally got better as it got shorter, stripping away prescription and polemic to let the silence of those rooms do the work.

What if the greatest threat to Christianity in America isn't persecution — but distraction?In this video, we explore a powerful thought experiment: If Satan wanted to turn Americans away from Jesus, how would he do it?Not through banning churches.Not through burning Bibles.But through busyness, comfort theology, political tribalism, cultural embarrassment, and shifting the focus away from the resurrection.This is a wake-up call for Christians and a serious challenge for skeptics.Because if Jesus really rose from the dead — that changes everything.

Authenticity isn't about sharing everything — it's about honoring what's true.As part of the Permission Series, Bobbi Brinkman explores what it really means to be authentic in a world that often confuses honesty with visibility and performance.In this episode, Bobbi reframes authenticity as alignment rather than exposure. She invites listeners to consider how being authentic doesn't require explaining yourself, oversharing, or proving anything; it simply asks that you stop betraying what you already know is true.This conversation creates space to release the pressure to perform and to return to a quieter, more grounded way of showing up, both personally and professionally.If you've felt pulled to be “more visible” when what you actually crave is more peace, this episode offers permission to be authentic and let the rest be quiet.Deeper conversations and community live over on Be Fabbo Substack, and you're welcome to join us anytime.Let's keep the FABBO convo going, send me a text!Support the showThank you for being a FABBO listener and supporting the Be Fabbo Podcast

At one time or another, most people have said things that would not be considered 100% accurate. Some have told outright lies. So what does the Bible and the Church say if there is a time ever allowed to do this? What if it is only a white lie to protect someone or to not offend them? Is it ever justified? What is the danger of lying? Join Fr. Chris Alar as he explains this very practical topic.

Show Summary:In this episode, Natasha and Claire explore the fascinating world of robots and robotics—from the driver's seat of their Tesla cars to the competition floor of First In Texas robotics. Natasha shares firsthand insights from her work in competitive robotics, while both hosts reflect on how robotics is already shaping our everyday lives.You'll also hear the inspiring story of George Devol, the inventor who helped launch the modern robotics industry, and why his legacy still matters today. The conversation dives into how and when students should be introduced to robotics, practical ways to spark curiosity, and why robotics education is more important than ever in preparing the next generation for a rapidly evolving world.Plus, the episode wraps with exciting recent feats in STEM that highlight just how fast innovation is moving.Whether you're an educator, parent, tech enthusiast, or just robot-curious, this episode offers insight, inspiration, and a glimpse into the future.ENGINEER SPOTLIGHT: George Devol (1912-2011) was an American inventor who helped start the modern robotics industry. George, fascinated by circuits and mechanics, loved experimenting with electronics and machines. In 1954, he patented the first programmable robotic arm, a machine that could move objects automatically by following coded instructions. Working with engineer Joseph Engelberger, he built Unimate, the world's first industrial robot. In 1961, it was put to work in a car factory, handling hot metal parts and doing dangerous jobs that once put people at risk. Devol's invention changed manufacturing forever and helped pave the way for the robots we use today.Links from the Show:Related The STEM Space Podcast Episodes 105.

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches! In today's episode of the Mastermind podcast, the conversation focused on protecting and strengthening your probate business by staying proactive with follow-up, education, and long-term relationship building. The panel emphasized the importance of consistent communication and positioning yourself as a trusted advisor, noting that many probate opportunities develop only after months of continued engagement rather than immediate results. A major portion of the discussion focused on the growing impact of reverse mortgages within probate cases. Bruce and the group explored how misinformation from loan servicers and tight foreclosure timelines often create unnecessary stress for heirs, emphasizing the agent's role in educating families and helping them navigate deadlines before properties move toward foreclosure. The panel highlighted how understanding financing nuances allows agents to provide clarity, create solutions, and uncover opportunities others may overlook. Participating members reinforced the value of anticipating challenges before they arise—staying organized, managing timelines, and maintaining ongoing outreach to protect both current deals and future pipeline opportunities. The episode wrapped with practical reminders that consistent service, education, and vigilance are essential to ensuring no probate opportunity slips through the cracks.  Key Takeaways: - Consistent follow-up protects your pipeline: Many probate deals convert months later, making ongoing communication essential to staying top-of-mind when families are ready to act. - Reverse mortgages present hidden opportunities: Heirs often misunderstand lender requirements, allowing knowledgeable agents to step in with guidance and solutions. - Education builds trust and credibility: Explaining probate timelines and processes positions you as an advisor rather than a salesperson. - Understand foreclosure timelines: Knowing lender deadlines helps families act in time and avoid unnecessary loss of equity. - Anticipate challenges before they arise: Proactively managing issues like title delays or lender demands creates smoother transactions. - A service-first approach wins long term: Helping families navigate difficult situations leads to stronger relationships and future referrals.  #RealEstateMarketing #ProbateRealEstate #RealEstateLeads #RealEstateSuccess Previous episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

If you have ADHD, chances are you've developed a deeply ingrained habit of apologizing — for being late, for forgetting, for talking too long, for existing in a way that feels like an inconvenience. In this episode, Nikki and Pete unpack why over-apologizing is so common in the ADHD experience and how rejection sensitive dysphoria fuels the cycle. They explore what happens on the receiving end when apologies become emotional labor for someone else, and why pre-apologizing can actually undermine your credibility and prevent others from having their own authentic reactions.The conversation moves from apology into repair — a critical distinction. Where an apology is one-directional, repair is a two-party activity built on acknowledging impact, taking responsibility, and resetting the relationship. Nikki walks through the framework of acknowledge, repair, reset, and Pete shares a powerful lesson from his own therapist: your power ends with your skin. You get to own your part, but you don't get to own someone else's forgiveness timeline. They also dig into why self-compassion isn't optional — it's the foundation that makes real repair possible.This episode also comes with a free downloadable resource: "Repair Scripts for Real Life: The ADHD Repair Guide," featuring five ready-to-use scripts for situations that come up for ADHDers every single week.

More on aspects of Temple worship that are not essential to each other. Also, the treatment of the Temple offerings for Rosh Chodesh from the Book of Yehezkel (Ezekiel) - which is not the same thing as that which is commanded in the Torah. And once the Gemara is talking about a source from Ezekiel, it opens the discussion to other challenges -- including an important story of Rabbi Haninah ben Hizkiyah and how he explained all of the difficult passages of Ezekiel. Plus, a new mishnah! Bringing us back to the discussion of essentiality. With an atypical dispute in the mishnah itself - given the explanations for the respective opinions: Rabbi Akiva, Rabbi Shimon ben Nanas, and Rabbi Shimon.

We are back for Part 2 of our Carson Kressley takeover! This week, Carson invites his "partners in crime," Amie and Jolie Sikes—better known as the Junk Gypsies—to the podcast. Broadcasting (virtually) from Round Top, Texas, the sisters share the story of how they turned a love for "junking" into a global lifestyle brand. Carson and the Gypsies discuss the magic of the Round Top Antiques Fair (the "Super Bowl of Junk"), why you should mix velvet with raw wood, and how to decorate with "glitter and dirt." Quick Decorating Takeaways: Mix "Glitter and Dirt": The Junk Gypsy aesthetic is all about contrast. Don't be afraid to pair a crystal chandelier with chipping paint, or velvet upholstery with rustic wood. The friction between fancy and rough is what makes a room interesting. Buy What You Love (It Will Fit): When shopping at flea markets or antique shows, ignore the "where will I put this?" doubt. Amie and Jolie believe that if you truly love a piece, you will find a place for it—even if it ends up in the bathroom holding towels. Souvenirs > Trends: Your home should be a scrapbook of your life. Carson and the girls discuss why buying weird, unique items from your travels (like a giant roadside sign or a beat-up guitar) beats buying a generic trend from a big-box store every time. What You'll Hear on This Episode: 00:00 Welcome to Part 2 of the Carson Kressley Mini-Series! 02:00 Meet the Junk Gypsies: Amie & Jolie Sikes 05:00 What is Round Top?

Whether you are struggling with depression, addiction, or seeking motivation, Justin's story is a roadmap for anyone feeling lost in the dark. "I was the youngest heavyweight in the country, and I was losing the only fight that mattered." In this powerful episode Kati speaks with Justin Wren for a raw conversation on mental health, resilience, and the recovery journey. Justin pulls back the curtain on a life of extreme highs and devastating lows, from the "merciless" bullying he faced as a child in Texas to the secret OxyContin addiction that haunted his professional MMA career. We dive deep into the "living nightmare" of substance abuse, where Justin managed a massive intake of pills while fighting on the world's biggest stage. He shares the heartbreaking moment he hit rock bottom after missing his best friend's wedding and the moment in Tulum that gave him a second chance at life. Justin also discusses his work with Fight for the Forgotten, his nonprofit dedicated to providing clean water and land rights to the Mbuti Pygmy people in Uganda and Eastern Congo. He shares the beautiful, life-altering lessons he learned about community, grief, and Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG) that helped him find true healing.

Speaking honestly at work can create pressure and relational strain, especially when your nervous system prepares for impact. This episode explores why over-explaining isn't failure, but a signal of identity-level misalignment, and how steadiness begins to return.Many high-performing professionals know the experience of telling the truth while their body tightens first.The words are clear, but the chest constricts.The thought is steady, but the urge to explain takes over.Not because the truth is uncertain, but because the nervous system is preparing for how it might land.In this episode of The Recalibration, we explore what it means to speak honestly at work without bracing or over-explaining.This conversation is not about better communication techniques or saying less for the sake of efficiency. It's about understanding why capable, responsible people learned to manage impact in the first place, and how that strategy can quietly drain energy over time.Throughout the episode, we gently explore:Why over-explaining is often a nervous system response, not a communication problemHow the body tightens in anticipation of misunderstanding or relational disruptionThe difference between clarity and protection, and how the body senses it firstWhy reinforcement is not about mastery, but about helping the nervous system feel safe enough to stay presentHow internal authority begins to stabilize when truth is allowed to be simpleWe also name something many people feel but rarely say out loud: when you stop bracing and over-explaining, connection can feel awkward at first. There may be less immediate feedback, fewer cues that tell you how you're being received. That doesn't mean you're losing connection. It means the way connection is forming is changing.This is not mindset work.It's not productivity advice.And it's not about pushing yourself to be more confident.Identity-Level Recalibration works at the root, helping the nervous system and identity come back into alignment so honesty no longer requires protection.Today's Micro Recalibration:The next time you notice the urge to over-explain, pause and ask quietly:“Am I adding clarity, or am I bracing?”No fixing.No forcing.Just noticing the moment you usually rush past.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!
