#675: Welcome to Greatest Hits Week – five days, five episodes from our vault, spelling out F-I-I-R-E. Today's letter E stands for Entrepreneurship. This episode originally aired in September 2018, at a moment when startup culture was loud, venture capital was abundant, and entrepreneurship was often framed as something that involves outside investors and rapid growth. ____ In this episode, we rewind the clock to 2018. Remember what entrepreneurship was supposed to look like back then? Build a startup. Raise capital. Scale fast. Get rich. That was the dominant story. But our guest, Rand Fishkin, told a different story – a story about founder burnout, debt, and the downside of startup culture. Rand, the founder of Moz, shares how he and his mother accumulated nearly half a million dollars in debt while running an early services business. He talks about what it felt like to face creditors, negotiate settlements, and keep going under intense financial pressure. From there, we move into one of the most misunderstood ideas in entrepreneurship: the difference between service businesses and product businesses. Rand breaks down the trade-offs. Services generate income faster. Product businesses rely on outside capital. And founders often earn far less than people expect. That leads to a deeper conversation about incentives. Once venture capital enters the picture, priorities shift. Profits matter less. Growth matters more — and it affects both the business and your personal finances. High revenue does not automatically translate into personal wealth. We also talk about the side of entrepreneurship that rarely makes the highlight reels: Loneliness. Anxiety. Depression. And the relief that comes from realizing that even the most successful founders often feel lost while they're building. This conversation feels less like startup advice and more like a long-term framework for thinking clearly about risk, money, and meaning. If you've ever questioned whether entrepreneurship automatically leads to financial freedom, this episode offers a grounded and very honest answer.

How do we talk to kids about violence, fear, and brokenness without overwhelming them, or pretending it doesn't exist? In this Facing the Dark episode, Dr. Kathy Koch and Wayne Stender help parents navigate hard conversations sparked by news, school lessons, and cultural realities. They explore how to give children real security (not just reassurance), how to recognize emotional "pressure points," and how to create healthy release valves for stress using the ways kids are uniquely wired. This episode equips parents to replace fear with faith, confusion with clarity, and isolation with connection—anchored in the hope and security found in Christ.

In this Facing the Dark conversation, Dr. Kathy and Wayne Stender engage the growing concern around "sharenting," a term popularized by legal scholar Leah Plunkett to describe how parents and trusted adults share children's lives online. While often well-intentioned, constant posting can subtly communicate that a child's value lies in how they appear, how well they perform, or how much attention their moments generate. Dr. Kathy explains how children can internalize the belief that they exist to make parents feel proud, connected, or validated. When everyday life becomes content, kids may begin to feel responsible for maintaining a highlight reel rather than simply living their childhood. Over time, this can affect identity formation, confidence, and a child's ability to own and narrate their own story. Wayne reflects on the tension many parents feel: wanting to capture meaningful moments while also wanting to stay present in those moments. Together, they challenge families to reconsider the rhythm and ratio of posting, to create private spaces for memory-keeping, and to invite children into owning their memories rather than outsourcing them to a feed. Grounded in Scripture and child development, this episode invites parents to pause, put the phone down, and choose presence over performance, so kids can grow up known, secure, and free to become who God created them to be.

#672: Welcome to Greatest Hits Week — five days, five episodes from our vault, spelling out F-I-I-R-E. Today's letter I stands for Increasing Your Income. This episode originally aired in August 2024, but the strategies are more essential than ever. Jeff Wetzler, Ed.D., reveals why the people around us withhold crucial information — and how asking better questions can transform your negotiations and net worth. __________ You've mastered the art of asking for what you want — or have you? Jeff Wetzler, Ed.D., a former education executive, joins us to reveal why most of us fail to extract crucial information from the people around us. Think about it: when was the last time someone told you what they really thought about your work? Or shared that game-changing idea they'd been sitting on? Wetzler discovered four categories of information people routinely withhold — and the cost runs deeper than you might expect. We explore why people stay silent about their struggles, unpopular opinions, observations about us, and innovative ideas. The reasons range from fear to simple exhaustion, but one stands out: they don't think we want to know. Here's a startling example from Harvard Business School research: investigators planted smudges on their faces and surveyed people. Less than three percent told them about the mark that they could wipe off in one second. But when asked later, 100 percent had noticed it. If people won't share something that simple, what else are they keeping from us? Wetzler shares his Ask Approach — five steps that unlock hidden information in any negotiation or relationship. We walk through real scenarios, from salary negotiations to buying cars, showing how curiosity beats strategy every time. One mechanic story drives this home. Facing a $2,000 air conditioning repair, Wetzler asked one question: "Do you have any other creative ideas?" The mechanic paused, then offered a $75 solution that worked perfectly. That five-second question saved $1,925. We discuss practical listening techniques, including the "doorknob moment" — why therapists know the most important information comes at minute 49 of a 50-minute session. Wetzler explains why our minds process 900 words per minute while our mouths manage only 125, creating a massive information gap. The conversation includes AI's surprising role in sharpening these skills, helping us frame conversations into content, emotion, and action. Wetzler demonstrates how technology can enhance rather than replace our uniquely human ability to connect and learn from each other.

How do parents support kids who've experienced stress without letting labels become their identity? In this Facing the Dark episode, Wayne and Dr. Kathy explore post-traumatic stress, attention struggles, and the growing role of AI in diagnosis, while carefully distinguishing between understanding a child's challenges and defining a child by them. Together they explain why beliefs shape behavior, why labels should only be used when they lead to real help, and how parents can speak truth, hope, and resilience over kids who are working through pain. This episode equips families to listen longer, look beneath the surface, and walk patiently with kids toward healing and confidence rooted in who God says they are.

When Drinking Becomes a Daily Requirement w/ Mike Schuab | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this deeply personal episode, Mike Schuab shares an unfiltered account of how alcohol gradually took control of his life while he worked tirelessly to convince everyone—including himself—that everything was fine. What began as normal social drinking slowly evolved into secretive behavior, isolation, and a daily reliance on alcohol just to feel steady, leading to broken relationships, constant lying, and an overwhelming sense of shame. Mike walks through the moments when drinking stopped being fun and started feeling necessary, the fear of being exposed, and the painful realization that his life was shrinking around his addiction. He opens up about confronting his family, facing the possibility of losing everything he cared about, and finally surrendering by walking into treatment emotionally exhausted and out of options. This conversation dives into the emotional toll of addiction, the mental gymnastics of denial, and the relief that comes with radical honesty. Mike also reflects on the difficult process of learning how to live, cope, and find meaning without alcohol, and how recovery forced him to rebuild trust one day at a time. This episode is a powerful reminder that addiction doesn't always look dramatic on the outside—but the internal struggle can be just as devastating—and that real change begins the moment someone admits they need help.#thehopeaholics   #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

The Morning Shift crew also lets you hear Atlanta Falcons Head Coach Raheem Morris talk about how they were able to slow down Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride in their 26-19 win over the Cardinals on Sunday, react to what Coach Morris had to say, talk about how a case can be made to fire Raheem Morris or bring Raheem back next season, and then close out hour three by diving into the life of Beau “Squidbilly” Morgan in The Life of Squid!

In this episode Lou Huesmann talks about one of the sources of our anxiety as human beings - the feeling that we should do more and be more. We face limitations - we are creatures created to be dependent on God, other people, and the earth. In our culture dependence is viewed negatively, yet God created us this way and declared it good - and Jesus took on our humanity and our finitude! God endorses our humanity! Our limitations therefore are not failures on our part, but the way we were created to be; we are designed for relationship and interdependence. This episode was recorded on December 19, 2025.

In this episode of Nephilim Death Squad, Raven and Matt Hepner break down and react to the documentary Age of Disclosure, exposing the modern UFO disclosure agenda, government narrative control, and the spiritual deception hiding behind “alien transparency.”This is not a surface-level review. We examine:The federal UFO disclosure push and why it's happening nowThe Vatican, the LUCIFER telescope, and Mount GrahamTimothy Alberino, Watchers theology, and pre-Flood narrativesStargates, portals, pharmakeia, and biblical gatewaysWhy “aliens” are not extraterrestrial—but interdimensionalHow disclosure primes the world for a false savior narrativeThe Days of Noah, the Tower of Babel cycle, and end-times deceptionThis episode connects Scripture, ancient history, intelligence operations, and modern propaganda to show why disclosure is not about truth—but control.

A federal grand jury has indicted Myrtle Beach pastor John-Paul Miller on charges of cyberstalking and making false statements to investigators — charges directly connected to the death of his wife Mica Miller, who was found dead from a gunshot wound in April 2024. But Mica isn't the only spouse linked to this man who's no longer alive. According to court documents, Chris Skinner — a quadriplegic Army veteran — drowned in a neighborhood pool in 2021 just two weeks after confronting Miller about an alleged affair with his wife. That woman, Suzie Skinner, is now married to JP Miller. The federal indictment alleges Miller engaged in a sustained harassment campaign against Mica from November 2022 until her death. Prosecutors say he posted intimate photos of her online without consent, placed tracking devices on her vehicle, contacted her over fifty times in a single day, and lied to federal investigators about damaging her tires. This comes on top of two civil lawsuits filed in 2025 accusing Miller of sexually assaulting minors in the late 1990s. Both lawsuits also name his father, Reginald Wayne Miller, and allege the family's churches operated without safeguards and enabled abuse for decades. Mica's family has never accepted the official suicide ruling. Her sister testified under oath that Mica told her: "If I end up with a bullet in my head, it was not by me, it was JP." Miller's arraignment is set for January 12, 2026. He faces up to seven years in federal prison if convicted. In this episode, we break down the federal indictment, the documented pattern of alleged abuse, the sexual assault lawsuits, the other suspicious death, and everything that led to this moment. #MicaMiller #JPMiller #JusticeForMica #TrueCrime #SolidRockChurch #MyrtleBeach #FederalIndictment #CoerciveControl #ChrisSkinner #CrimePsych Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Enjoy a recent Podcast Interview I had the honor of doing with the Amazing Anika Jackson with the Your Brand Amplified Podcast, where we discussed Self-Mastery and Authentic Living. Check out Anika's Podcast below! Central to Dr. JC Doornick's philosophy is the belief that genuine success arises from a harmonious alignment between internal values and external actions. His own journey of transformation—moving from struggle and self-doubt to lasting change—demonstrates that lasting fulfillment begins with prioritizing both physical and mental health. By urging individuals to confront rather than avoid their fears, Dr. Doornick turns obstacles into catalysts for growth, nurturing resilience, authenticity, and compassion along the way. Through his frameworks and personal example, he illustrates that personal and professional breakthroughs require self-awareness, kindness, and persistent action. His focus is not merely on external accomplishments but on cultivating an environment where individuals are equipped to realize their potential, create meaningful impact, and enjoy a life anchored in purpose.

Episode #453: Patrick Phongsathorn is a human rights advocate and Fortify Rights advocacy specialist working on Myanmar. Raised near London by a Thai–Irish–South African family, he pairs legal rigor with practical savvy about how ministries, courts, and donors move. After abandoning an early push toward medicine, Patrick rerouted into politics and human rights, studying at SOAS and Sciences Po's Human Rights and Humanitarian Action program. He learned by doing: Human Rights Watch work on detention and refugee children; IOM in TimorLeste's smallstate bureaucracy; UNHCR in Lebanon at the height of the Syria crisis. After settlingin Thailand, he joined Fortify Rights in 2019, built monitoring systems, and now leads advocacy while training partners to craft evidencedriven strategies. Patrick's approach is simple and demanding: investigate carefully, argue from law, and listen first. As he puts it, “the most important people that I've spoken to about Myanmar are Myanmar people.” In Myanmar he sees a twotrack mission— minimize harm now and make justice possible later— because “if you don't reconcile the injustices that people face, then they will come back.” Fortify Rights has documented a pattern of indiscriminate airstrikes on civilians and protected sites—churches, IDP camps, hospitals, schools—often rising when the junta loses ground. Patrickcalls for an arms embargo and restrictions on aviation fuel alongside individual command accountability. The red lines are nonnegotiable: “It's never right to bomb a hospital, it's never right to bomb a school, it's never right to kill civilians in times of war.” Accountability, he insists, binds all parties, including the NUG, PDFs, and ethnic forces. He is also skeptical of sham elections and “safe zones,” urging instead a real Thai asylum system and sustained international pressure through the UN and universaljurisdiction cases. He also reflects on ‘the day after' the military's anticipated defeat, noting that they must avoid victors' justice while building institutions that can fairly try atrocity crimes. And as the global order frays, he reminds that Myanmar is a test of whether law can still restrain power, reminding listeners that “even if you're not interested in international politics, international politics will be interested in you.”

“It doesn't matter how much a carrier charges—at some point, those copper lines are going to be shut off,” says Jake Jacoby, CEO of TELCLOUD. “The real question is whether businesses get ahead of it or wait until it becomes a crisis.” In the latest episode of the TELCLOUD POTS and Shots Podcast Series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sits down with Jacoby to examine the accelerating reality of the copper sunset and the growing urgency for organizations still relying on legacy POTS lines. Jacoby explains how telecom networks have shifted almost entirely away from copper, leaving only 5–10% of that infrastructure still in use—yet costly to maintain. Deregulation in 2019 allowed carriers to raise prices dramatically, but even skyrocketing bills have not stopped shutdowns. Businesses now face two converging pressures: rapidly rising POTS costs and the certainty that service will eventually be discontinued, regardless of price. For many organizations, this issue surfaces unexpectedly, when once-modest line items suddenly trigger concern from finance teams and executives. Jacoby emphasizes that POTS replacement is not something most businesses have ever planned for, making it critical to choose a partner that can simplify the transition and deliver a long-term solution. TELCLOUD addresses this challenge by bridging legacy analog equipment—such as fire panels, elevators, and emergency phones—with modern, future-proof connectivity. The result is a reliable communication path designed to last for decades, paired with predictable monthly pricing that restores financial stability. For MSPs and IT providers that do not traditionally handle telecom, Jacoby notes that TELCLOUD's channel-first, white-label model allows partners to remain the trusted advisor while TELCLOUD manages the complexity behind the scenes. The episode closes with the Shots segment, recorded from Mexico, where Jacoby introduces Cascahuin No. 7 Reposado, a smooth, oak-aged tequila from Jalisco—an apt finish to a discussion centered on patience, preparation, and long-term value.

What does it really mean for a child to be "successful"? In this episode of Facing the Dark, Dr. Kathy Koch and Wayne Stender explore research on sibling success and unpack why optimism, motivation, learning, coaching, and, most importantly, wisdom and resilience shape kids for long-term flourishing. Together, they challenge achievement-based definitions of success and offer a Christ-centered vision that emphasizes character, growth, and learning how to apply truth in everyday life

In this timely and in-depth episode of Unleashing Intuition Secrets, Michael Jaco sits down with legal researcher and constitutional analyst Sheila Holm for a clear-eyed examination of the legal and political battles now confronting the United States. Sheila breaks down President Trump's recent statement from the White House, exploring its legal significance and how it intersects with ongoing discussions surrounding sedition, treason, constitutional authority, and national sovereignty. The conversation also examines the controversial case of Tina Peters, broader legal actions involving whistleblowers, and how precedent-setting cases could redefine justice in America. Together, Michael and Sheila unpack the complex legal language and procedural mechanisms shaping current events, including national and international fraud allegations, jurisdictional questions, and the role of high-profile political figures behind the scenes. Rather than speculation, this discussion focuses on law, documentation, and historical context to help listeners better understand what is actually unfolding. This episode offers clarity for those trying to navigate the confusion surrounding today's headlines and provides thoughtful insight into why these legal battles matter for the future of the country.

In this episode of FreightWaves Daily, we analyze why the freight market has shifted into panic mode with rejection rates doubling and spot rates climbing significantly. We break down the perfect storm of weather, holiday demand, and regulatory crackdowns that are rapidly removing carrier capacity from the road. We then turn to the escalating constitutional showdown in California, where the state plans to reissue 17,000 non-domiciled CDLs despite federal warnings. The FMCSA has threatened to withhold highway funding or even decertify the state's entire commercial licensing program if officials proceed with the plan. In rail news, Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern have filed a historic application to create America's first transcontinental railroad, uniting western and eastern networks. This massive merger aims to convert interline lanes to single-line service, potentially shifting millions of truckloads off the highway and onto the tracks. The U.S. Postal Service is making a desperate pivot by opening its last-mile network to retailers and logistics companies in a bid to stave off insolvency. This strategy allows shippers to bid on volume and pricing for same-day or next-day delivery using the USPS infrastructure. Facing a 1,500% surge in organized crime, industry leaders are pressuring lawmakers to pass legislation that federalizes the fight against cargo theft. The proposed bill would lower the threshold for federal intervention and create a coordination center to track transnational criminal rings. Finally, we cover Maersk's recent test transit through the Red Sea and RPM Freight's strategic acquisition to enter the luxury vehicle transport market.

Why are so many young adults trusting social media over doctors, and what does that mean for how kids form wisdom? In this Facing the Dark episode, Wayne and Dr. Kathy examine new global research revealing Gen Z's growing reliance on peer-driven and influencer-based information. Together, they explore the difference between knowledge and wisdom, why algorithms reward immediacy over discernment, and how parents can teach kids to seek truth deeply rather than settle for the first answer. Rooted in Scripture and practical mentoring, this conversation equips families to help kids hunger for understanding, cultivate discernment, and pursue a truly flourishing life grounded in Christ—not clicks.
