In this episode of 'Ideas Have Consequences,' Larry Alex Taunton delves into the reasons behind the Western scholarly community's difficulty in understanding the intrinsic connections between Islam and violent actions perpetrated in its name. Through a critique of historical and contemporary literature, Taunton examines the secular bias that often clouds academic analysis. He also highlights the importance of understanding religious perspectives by recommending Aurora Martiganian's book, 'Ravished Armenia,' as a crucial read for grasping the true nature of Islam. The episode explores the broader implications of misattributing the roots of Islamic violence, urging a reevaluation of how political correctness and woke culture are hindering genuine understanding and effective responses to radical ideologies. Additionally, Taunton draws parallels with other historical ideologies, emphasizing the need for a holistic grasp of belief systems to prevent future atrocities.

If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. My guest: David Adelman is the CEO of Campus Apartments, founder of Darco Capital, and co-owner of the Philadelphia 76ers. During our conversation, we discussed how losing a basketball bet at age 11 changed his life, investing his bar mitzvah money in real estate, becoming CEO at 25, his grandfather's Holocaust survival story, and why it gives him perspective on struggle, embracing failure, the trade-offs of building something excellent, and what he looks for when hiring leaders. Key Learnings "Why not me? Why not now?" David's mantra cuts through all the overthinking and excuses we make. When he saw other people building national real estate portfolios, he didn't wonder if it was possible—he asked why he couldn't do it. Stop waiting for permission. Stop waiting for the perfect moment. Ask yourself: why not me? Why not now? Make mistakes, just not the same one twice. David doesn't expect perfection from himself or his team. He expects learning. Fail fast, fail forward, but don't repeat the same failure. That's not growth—that's negligence. Embrace the suck, but evolve through it. David's grandfather survived the Holocaust after his wife and children were murdered. He escaped, joined the resistance, and rebuilt his life from nothing. When David thinks about that, he says: "No matter what, I don't know struggle." That's perspective. Most of what we call struggle is just discomfort. Understanding that doesn't make your challenges disappear... It makes them manageable. If your grandfather could survive the unthinkable, you can handle the hard day in front of you. At age 11, David challenged family friend Alan Horwitz to a basketball game and made a wager. Horwitz didn't let the kid win, and David lost his basketball, football, and baseball glove. To get them back, he had to go to Campus Apartments every Saturday to sweep sawdust and stack lumber. This losing bet became his entry into a billion-dollar career. At 13, David gambled his $2,000 bar mitzvah money by investing it with Horwitz in a building at 45th and Pine Streets in Philadelphia - a property his company still owns today. By age 17, he bought his first solely owned investment property. David was accepted into Temple University Beasley School of Law but chose to become a Property Manager at Campus Apartments instead. At age 25 in 1997, he became CEO of Campus Apartments. His grandfather, Sam Wasserman, was captured by the Nazis in 1942 and taken to the Sobibor concentration camp, where his wife and two children were immediately executed. Wasserman escaped during an organized revolt, joined the resistance, was wounded in battle, and was cared for by a woman named Sophie, who became his second wife. David said, "I feel a deep connection to him and what he went through. It's more like a sense of duty to honor him." David says, "I bet on jockeys, not horses. I ask, 'If the thing fails, would we support them again?' To be clear, a lot of our [investments] are going to fail.' He learned the hard way: "Friends would say, 'Here's a deal, put in X amount,' so you know, it's $250,000 or $500,000 or $1 million. I realized very quickly that it's probably a money-losing prospect to just invest in a friend of a friend's idea or because someone at your country club is investing in it." "It's called working off your debt." I literally lost everything to my "Uncle" Alan in 30 minutes when I was 11. My baseball glove, football, basketball, even my bank book. Every Saturday, I had to stack lumber and sweep sawdust to get one item back. Two years later, at my Bar Mitzvah, my parents asked if I wanted to give my gift money to my grandfather, who was good at picking stocks. I said no, I want to give it to Uncle Alan and buy real estate. At 13, I drove around with him, picked the biggest building he owned, handed him $2,000, and became a partner. My grandfather was in Poland with a wife and two kids when the Nazis rounded him up. There were two lines. One for men, one for women, and children. He never saw his wife and kids again. He escaped from the Sobibor prison camp, became a freedom fighter, got shot, and was in a hospital recovering when a woman checking on her brother saw this lonely soldier and went over to check on him. That was my grandmother. My mother was born in a displaced persons camp after the war. "No matter what, when I'm getting the crap kicked out of me in business or anything else, I don't know struggle." I think about my grandfather and what he went through. "That guy knew pressure and made it through the other side. So I have to stop being a little bitch about it and lean in." Uncle Alan always said, "Whatever you do in life, it shouldn't feel like work." I have never said I'm going to work. I say I'm going to the office. Now, am I tired sometimes? A hundred percent. Did I miss a lot of stuff with my kids? Absolutely, and I have deep regret over that. With success and money comes a price, too. Becoming a CEO at 25. "Why not me and why not now?" I live my life by this mantra. In the 1990s, no one was doing student housing at large scale nationally. I saw this white space, and I'm like, fuck it, let's do it. "I'm not afraid to fail. And I think if you're not afraid to fail, it's a freedom." "Embrace the suck." Not everything's gonna be fun. Some things are hard. But sometimes when you push through them, you get to another side. Sometimes you don't, and pulling the plug is okay if it's not working. I've gotten good at understanding that a business might be a great opportunity, a great idea, at the wrong time. When building something…If you aren't willing to make sacrifices earlier in your career and build that foundation for the future, being an entrepreneur might not be for you. I made choices to miss things with my wife and kids. Were all those things I missed worth it? Probably not. My daughters are 21 and 23 now, and I missed a lot of their early growing up. Four years ago, I apologized to my older one, and she said, "You know what, we remember this dad more than that dad." "It's never too late to make a change." After you've done okay financially, it has to be about something else. The guys and women I roll with—"it's not about money. You either are wired to get up and work hard every day and do it, and it has to be about something else." It could be about providing opportunities for the people who work with you, or solving complex problems, or creating a business you're excited about. "I don't think I'm the smartest guy in the room." You have to be open to learning. I continue to want to learn about other people's businesses. If I meet somebody, I'm like, tell me about that business. If you have that inquisitive mind, some guy tells me he's in the widget business, and I'll think of ten things they should try to do. "I am never too embarrassed to say I don't know something." When we were selecting architects and contractors for the arena, I spoke to owners of the newest stadiums. Just lessons learned about the process. When I mentor kids, I tell them most people are afraid to say "I don't know" or "I don't understand." "If you're embarrassed for looking stupid, isn't it worse if you don't know what you're doing down the road because you didn't ask?" "People don't know how to listen anymore. People wait to talk." They don't listen. When I have dinner with my youngest daughter, I hand her my phone so I won't be on it. I want to be there, I want to be attentive. Why are you wasting time meeting with people if you're not gonna listen to them? "Make lots of mistakes. Just don't make the same one twice." Try hard. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there. The worst thing that happens is someone says no. I met my wife in a bar, literally in line for pizza. Turns out she was the school teacher two different women had told me I needed to call. The funny part is my buddy was talking to her best friend. He married her, I married Hailey, and our kids are best friends. When it comes to sales. "Don't bullshit people. That's my number one goal." People can tell. Even at an early age, I had the humility to say I don't know everything. Here's my business plan, here's why I think I can scale Campus Apartments across the country when that wasn't being done. When I'm hiring or promoting leaders, I look for three things. One is trust—I need to trust them. Two is creating an open line of communication. Three, "I don't think you're a successful leader or CEO if you're not willing to listen." There are a lot of dictator type CEOs. That's not me. Some of them work. "I don't manage from fear, I manage from bringing in opinions." For me, it's about having people who, in their individual swim lanes, are better at those jobs than you are. The DeSean Jackson situation taught me about leading with curiosity. He made some anti-Semitic comments, and people came to me saying we need to cancel him. "Before I get there, I actually just want to find out what his intent was." The things he said were based on him being uninformed about the hurtfulness of those words. Not only was he willing to understand that, but he said, "Can you take me to your Holocaust memorial and actually educate me?" He came with his mom, no press. "It would be nice to take a moment before you're ready to convict somebody and actually have a conversation." When I'm looking at investments, I really have to understand the product. I joke, "Do my kids at least understand it?" Number two: Who's the founder? People matter. I ask myself, if this thing goes bad, and as long as the guy's not a crook, would I invest with them again? "I have to be more than just money in the deal." I like knowing when my influence and input can help make a difference. I think it's strategic thinking, introductions, and being a sounding board. The hardest part about being a founder is that they're afraid to tell investors bad news. "Bad news doesn't get better with time." Advice to young professionals. "Try to get noticed for the right reasons." Show up and go to work. Go get coffee when you see your boss's boss there. Don't be afraid to introduce yourself. Ask lots of questions. Be the person who says, "Could you explain that to me?" Folks in my position really respect that. "Don't be afraid to put out a bad idea." I hate working from home because I think people are screwed by the opportunity to interact with people and better their career and learn things. You're robbed of chance encounters, of overhearing conversations, of learning by proximity. We're building this arena in downtown Philly, not taking any city capital, and doing good things for the city. We came together with Comcast who owns the Flyers. "It's gonna be the best live entertainment venue in the world, located in Philadelphia." We're opening in 2030 with a WNBA team. For those counting Philly out, you're wrong—we're doing great shit here. Reflection Questions David's grandfather survived the Holocaust, which gives David a profound perspective on what real pressure and struggle actually look like. What experiences in your own life or family history could you draw on to reframe the "struggles" you face in your work or personal life? He lives by the mantra "Why not me? Why not now?" and says that not being afraid to fail is a freedom. What opportunity are you currently overthinking or waiting on "permission" for? What would change if you asked yourself those two questions right now? David regrets missing parts of his daughters' childhoods while building his businesses, but his daughter told him, "We remember this dad more than that dad." Meaning it's never too late to make a change. What relationship in your life needs you to show up differently, and what's one concrete thing you could change this week?

We don't talk about this enough, even though so many of us face it personally or through someone we love. Real Housewives of New York star, Jessel Taank, opens up about her three-year journey to become a mum; the strain it put on her marriage, the financial toll and the moments during five rounds of IVF when she questioned everything - even whether she truly wanted motherhood. And then… she had twins. Paloma Faith also shares her own IVF experience, from the loneliness and an ectopic pregnancy to postpartum psychosis and depression after her first baby. Today, she's a mum of two and recently announced she's expecting her third. As someone who's been through IVF myself, I hope this episode offers comfort, connection and a reminder that you're not alone - no matter where you are on this journey.

The hardest problems don't fit into a slogan. We invited the editors behind Heatwave Magazine to unpack why national fixes can't solve planetary crises, why tariffs and “reindustrialization” won't restore a high‑wage equilibrium, and how social democracy keeps running headfirst into profitability and energy limits. We talk plainly about China's energy transition and youth unemployment, Mexico's narco‑capitalist dual power, and why so much left media looks away from contradictions that actually shape daily life.Our conversation moves from print as a living hub—short, sharp pieces that travel through bookstores, Discords, and reading groups—to the strategic dead ends of culture-only union optimism and Twitter-only militancy. Riots are real—often the form class conflict takes when every other route is blocked—but without institutions that bridge street power to social reproduction and production, movements burn out. We explore what those institutions could be: not a party blueprint, not a co‑op panacea, but durable infrastructures for shared analysis, care, and coordination across borders.We also cut through the growth vs degrowth stalemate by asking different questions: what forms of energy and production reorganize land, labor, and life without reproducing domination? How do we build imagination when most people have never known another way to live? From beavers and watersheds to logistics chokepoints and labor's changing composition, we map the terrain as it is—messy, global, and unforgiving—so we can act with clarity instead of wishful thinking.If you're tired of easy answers and ready to engage the hard constraints shaping our future, this one's for you. Listen, share, and tell us where you think the real leverage lies. And if the conversation sparks something, subscribe, leave a review, and pass it to a comrade who needs a sharp tool, not a shiny slogan.Send us a text Musis by Bitterlake, Used with Permission, all rights to BitterlakeSupport the showCrew:Host: C.

In Episode 12 of our series on developing a biblical worldview, we wrap up the section on sanctification—the lifelong process of becoming more like Christ. Titled "Freedom to Fail," this conversation dives deep into what it means to walk as sons of God, free from condemnation and secure in our identity.We explore how sanctification is not about earning salvation but learning to live as dearly loved sons, discipled by a good Father. Through honest discussion and Scripture, the team shares stories of correction, growth, marriage challenges, parenting, and Christ-centered leadership. You'll hear how obedience flows not from fear, but from knowing you're already loved and accepted.Key themes include:What it looks like to grow in Christ without fear of failureHow correction builds maturityThe power of humility and apology in leadership and parentingWhy your identity in Christ gives you courage to lead, love, and endureThe gospel truth that you're perfected forever while still being sanctified (Hebrews 10:14)Whether you're a father, husband, mentor, or just someone trying to walk faithfully, this episode will encourage you to rest in Christ and get back up when you fall.
Knowing Who You Are helps you step up and be who God has called you to be.
Dive into our spoiler-filled breakdown of the 2025 adaptation of The Running Man. We analyze Edgar Wright's fresh take, compare it to the Schwarzenegger classic and the original Stephen King story, and tackle the divisive The Running Man 2025 reviews. Was this movie unfairly maligned for being too real, or did it miss the mark? We explore its tone, social satire, and why it might be one of the most relevant films of the year. In this episode, we discuss: How this 2025 adaptation compares to the original Schwarzenegger film and its faithfulness to the Stephen King novella. The film's potent social satire and why its dystopian themes of class warfare and media manipulation feel "way too fucking real." A deep dive into the divisive critical reception and audience reviews—and why we think they got it wrong. Did you find the 2025 version of The Running Man to be a clever satire or a tonal mess?

On this 305th episode of Take Flight Weekly, I pull back the curtain on the 10 lessons that shaped me the most in 2025. I'm the President of Jameson Sotheby's International Realty, I coach elite-level producers across dozens of markets, and I continue to build my own business. That combination gives me a front-row seat to what separates the 3% from the 97%. These are the real patterns that separate the people who grow from the people who stay stuck. The 10 Patterns That Separate the 3% From the 97% → Lesson 1: Vision Is an Emotional Destination A true vision is a feeling. It's the emotional state you want to experience three years from now—clarity, control, energy, confidence, margin. → Lesson 2: An Extra 0.25% on Every $10M in Production Is $25,000 Elite producers understand the compounding effect of precision. Micro improvements stack, scale, and matter. → Lesson 3: Is Planning Actually Procrastination? Too many advisors hide behind "planning" because it feels productive. But planning without execution is avoidance. Planning becomes procrastination the moment it delays action. → Lesson 4: The 3% Are Willing to Fail to Learn and Grow Failing in public is the entry fee to elite performance. The 3% don't fear failure. They fear stagnation. Most optimize for safety. The elite optimize for growth. → Lesson 5: The Basics Will Always Work. Less Is More. Top performers master the basics at a higher level. When business gets noisy, the elite simplify. Excellence is built through subtraction, not addition. → Lesson 6: The Next Frontier Is Marketing Your Hyper-Local Market Advisors who master hyper-local expertise will own the next decade. The buying public chooses location first. AI is indexing geography at a micro level. Build a brand tied directly to location. → Lesson 7: Only 4% of People Receive Two or More Handwritten Notes Per Year Authenticity stands out. A handwritten note has the highest open rate in the world. Low cost. High impact. Underutilized. → Lesson 8: If You Don't Plant, You Will Not Harvest Input always precedes output. You cannot take a season off from marketing, database management, and relationship nurturing and expect predictable revenue. Keep planting during your busiest months. → Lesson 9: The Top 1% Are Obsessed with Reaching Their Goals Not committed. Obsessed. The top 1% live in complete alignment with their outcomes. Their habits, calendars, and relationships match their goals. Elite performance is engineered. → Lesson 10: Rightsize Is My Word for 2026 Rightsizing is about stripping away clutter. It's about aligning your business, commitments, team, and inputs with your emotional destination. It's not about shrinking. It's about recalibrating to grow in the right direction. Here's my promise heading into 2026: I'm going to keep doing the work, connecting the dots, and bringing you the truth about what separates elite producers from the 97%. You show up and do your part, and I'll show up and do mine. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Andrew Ross Sorkin has spent his career following the money to understand everything — from Wall Street to Silicon Valley, from media to AI. A journalist who never set out to be one, Sorkin built DealBook into the Super Bowl of business journalism, turning curiosity into empire-building. In Boardroom's October Cover Story, he shares how an overheard word such as “internet” landed him at The New York Times, how he approaches interviews like a tennis rally rather than a serve, and why Oprah remains his white whale. Through stories of Too Big to Fail, the 1929 crash, and the coming AI reckoning, Sorkin unpacks how narrative drives markets, crashes, and comebacks alike. From Elon Musk's many personas to the billion-dollar game of sports, streaming, and live entertainment, this is Andrew Ross Sorkin: journalist, storyteller, dealmaker — chasing what feels impossible, one conversation at a time.

Even the greatest heroes of faith are still subject to human weakness. In this episode, Dr. John Neufeld examines King Hezekiah—one of Judah's most godly kings—who after being miraculously healed and witnessing incredible deliverance from Assyria, stumbles into pride when Babylonian envoys visit Jerusalem. Dr. Neufeld reminds us that sin's consequences can't always be undone, and that even faithful leaders must guard against complacency until their mission is complete.The Grand Vision: God's Story Through Isaiah: Isaiah is the second-most quoted book in the New Testament, yet many Christians have never studied it deeply. In this 10-message series, Dr. John guides listeners through this essential prophetic book, exploring Isaiah's 50-year ministry during one of Israel's most turbulent periods. From temple visions to confrontations with kings, from oracles against nations to prophecies of the coming Messiah, Isaiah reveals God's sovereignty over all history and His plan for the world through Jesus Christ.

Ruth Wilson MBE has made a habit of tackling psychologically demanding roles. You'll know her from playing a mother grieving the loss of her child in The Affair, a sociopathic research scientist in Luther or even from her acclaimed stage performances in Anna Christie and King Lear.

We talk about her getting rejected from Oxford University, her failure to run the London Marathon in the way she envisaged and the power of aging naturally. Plus: how her father's Alzheimer's diagnosis has helped her live in the present.

Send us a textWhy do eggs that look perfect on retrieval day sometimes lead to poor embryos, failed implantation, or no pregnancy at all? If your clinic once told you your eggs “look great,” only to later say the cycle failed due to an egg issue… you're not alone. And no, your doctor didn't lie to you.In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols unpacks one of the biggest misunderstandings in IVF: the difference between how an egg looks and how an egg functions.Drawing from real-world experiences and the new research review “Unveiling the Realms of Reproduction: A Reflection of Oocyte Assessment” by Gardner et al. , Dr. Amols breaks down:• Why egg morphology (appearance) is a terrible predictor of success • What embryologists can see… and what's completely invisible • Why the true egg issues only show up later — during fertilization, cleavage, and blastocyst development • The “cohort effect”: why some cycles are full of rock-star eggs and others feel like the B-team • Why a failed cycle doesn't mean your eggs are bad or that you did anything wrong • The future of egg assessment: AI scoring, time-lapse imaging, metabolomics, autofluorescence, and moreIf you've ever wondered how “good eggs go bad,” or felt frustrated when early optimism turned into confusion, this episode gives you the clarity, science, and reassurance you've been looking for.Share this with someone going through IVF, and leave a 5-star review if this helped you.Thanks for tuning in to another episode of 'Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday' with Dr. Mark Amols.

What separates billion-dollar bets from billion-dollar disasters? Wall Street Journal columnist and author Tim Higgins has spent two decades covering the world's boldest CEOs: from Elon Musk betting his entire fortune on electric cars, to Mark Zuckerberg wagering Meta's future to escape Apple's “perfect mousetrap.” In this episode, Tim reveals the patterns behind high-stakes tech decisions, explains why OpenAI might already be too big to fail, and shares why every innovation cycle – from Detroit's Model T to today's ChatGPT – starts the same way (spoiler: it always looks frivolous at first). You'll learn how to spot transformative technology before it transforms and why “insane” decisions often work. Whether you're trying to separate hype from reality or are simply fascinated by how power players think, this conversation will change how you see today's AI arms race, and what comes next.

In this episode of the Mulder Life Podcast, Andy dives into hardscaping challenges, winter operations, and major updates on his new shop build. He discusses the ongoing problems he's experienced with traditional concrete edging—specifically summer grass dieback and edging pull-away—and explains why he's considering transitioning to hybrid edging. The conversation also covers the recent concrete pour, upcoming spray-foam insulation, heating plans, and the push to finish fall cleanups before winter weather settles in. Andy reflects on big-picture business decisions, including whether to expand to multiple hardscape crews, developing a mission and core values for his team, and future possibilities for the property such as commercial rentals or a landscape supply yard. The episode closes with insights on tool efficiency and the ways modern equipment is transforming day-to-day operations in the field.
Chad Batton's story is one every handler can relate to: starting with doubt, feeling the pressure to “get it right,” and hoping to do justice to a well-bred dog.

In this episode, Chad shares how Cornerstone Gundog Academy helped him build confidence, overcome defining moments like fetch-hold-release, and eventually discover the joy of training multiple dogs.

What if the biggest threat to your franchise system isn't sales, development, or operations but the financial foundation you're quietly ignoring?In this episode, we sit down with the franchise finance authority, Ron Feldman, a 30-year veteran who has advised, funded, and evaluated many franchise brands through ApplePie Capital, FRANdata, and Franchise America Finance. Ron pulls back the curtain on the one thing that separates healthy, scalable brands from the ones that stall out: franchisee profitability and why ignoring it is the fastest path to failure.From the early days of the Goddard School to building lending platforms that have deployed more than $3 billion to franchisees, Ron shares what lenders really look for, why item 19s often fall short, and how emerging franchisors accidentally sabotage their own growth. He breaks down why unit-level economics matter more than any development goal, how to avoid becoming a “churn and burn” brand, and what it takes to become an exceptional franchise system in the eyes of lenders, franchisees, and buyers.Whether you're a founder trying to grow responsibly, a franchisor preparing for scale, or a leader committed to better financial discipline across your system, this episode is a masterclass in doing franchising the right way with clarity, transparency, and profitability at the core.Connect with Ron:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronaldafeldman/Email - Ron@franchisestrategysolutions.comApplePie Capital Contact - Jamie@applepiecapitall.comEpisode Highlights:Ron's early days as a Goddard School franchiseeThe mentor who shaped his entire franchising philosophyWhy franchisee profitability is the #1 indicator of system healthThe biggest mistakes emerging franchisors makeHow lenders actually evaluate an FDDWhy item 19 rarely shows the full storyWhat makes a brand “exceptional” in the eyes of lendersWhy founders need more capital than they thinkThe dangers of undercapitalization (for franchisors + franchisees)The responsible franchising movement and why it mattersThe power of benchmarking, data, and the right tech stackAccelerating time from signed to open and why most brands struggleWhen franchisors should buy back locations to protect validationConnect with Tracy Personal LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-panase/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale JBF Franchise System - https://jbfsalefranchise.com/ Email: podcast@jbfsale.com Connect with Shannon Personal LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonwilburn/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale Website - https://shineexecutivecoaching.com/ Email - shannon@shineexecutivecoaching.com

JOIN THE 7 DAY RESET - ▶️ www.therebuiltman.com/7dayreset In this powerful episode of The Rebuilt Man Podcast, Coach Frank exposes the hard truth most men never hear: Porn blockers don't free men — they keep them dependent. Apps like Covenant Eyes, BlockerX, and Canopy don't fix the underlying issue, and for many men they actually make addiction worse. Instead of building self-leadership and discipline, blockers reinforce surveillance, loophole hunting, and emotional avoidance. Frank breaks down the nine undeniable reasons why porn blockers fail long-term, and reveals the path to true freedom — one rooted in identity, purpose, and personal leadership rather than restriction. If you've ever used a blocker and still relapsed… this episode will finally make it make sense. Expect to Learn Why porn blockers attack symptoms instead of the root problem How blockers create dependence instead of discipline Why "forbidden fruit dopamine" makes porn even more tempting How accountability becomes policing instead of growth Why you can't outsource self-control and still expect to feel powerful How loophole hunting becomes a dopamine addiction of its own How blockers give the illusion of progress without transformation Why discomfort and emotions always beat external restrictions What actually makes porn become unnecessary Key Takeaways Porn blockers create more dependence, not more freedom Real change is driven by identity, self-leadership, and discipline Freedom comes from mastering urges, not restricting access You don't need a stronger blocker — you need a stronger you Join the Brotherhood If you're ready to stop fighting alone and step into a container built for growth, support, and freedom: ➡ Join The Rebuilt Man Skool Community — Free 7-Day Trial www.TheRebuiltMan.com/7dayreset Inside you'll gain access to: Daily accountability Weekly coaching The 7-Day Reset The 12-Week "Reboot Your Life" Framework And a brotherhood of men who refuse to quit – Follow Coach Frank: IG - https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@CoachFrankRich Website - https://www.rebuiltrecovery.com/homepage

We all face rejection, no matter who we are. In this episode we revisit conversations with two extraordinary women who have faced rejection and overcome it: Spice Girl Mel B opens up about her unsuccessful audition for The Sound of Music and the pain of feeling like she didn't fit the mould because of how she looked while Nicole shares what life was like before the Pussycat Dolls - the endless auditions, doors slammed-shut and the struggle to land her big break. Hearing these stories from women who have gone on to achieve so much is a powerful reminder that feelings of doubt and fears around not being ‘enough' are universal. But as Mel and Nicole remind us, the true test of character is in how we respond to them.
