Figure skating is one of the most popular sports at the Winter Olympics as it combines world-class athleticism with dance, choreography and music. Jackie Wong is one of the world's leading experts on figure skating and takes us behind the scenes of what it takes to be among the best in the world. From blade sharpening to music choice (the Back Street Boys will be the most popular band in Milan 2026!), figure skaters are defined by their ability to pull off daring manoeuvres with grace against the backdrop of judges watching for the smallest mistake. Wong shares some of his favourite stories from the ice, the routines and stars that have defined the sport and who, and what, to watch for in 2026. Wong is a figure skating analyst and blogs and tweets as Rocker Skating on both his website and podcast.

At 18, she was living in a trailer park in Edmond, Oklahoma, trying to raise a one-year-old while already feeling like life was stacked against her. She'd had strange experiences before, but nothing that made her question reality in the middle of the day.This wasn't a shadow at night or a noise in the dark. It happened with the curtains open and sunlight filling the room.Something appeared anyway.It wasn't fast. It wasn't chaotic. It moved through her bedroom slowly, deliberately—like it wasn't surprised to be there. And whatever she was seeing felt specific, detailed, and intentional in a way that left no room for easy explanations.She didn't know what it was. She didn't know why it showed up. And with a child in the home, she didn't know who she could even tell.#RealGhostStoriesOnline #TrueGhostStory #ParanormalEncounter #GrimReaperSightings #ShadowFigure #HauntedHome #Unexplained #CloakedFigure #ParanormalActivity #GhostPodcast #ListenerStories #CreepyEncounters Love real ghost stories?

What actually happens inside a room full of women earning seven figures? In this episode, I'm sharing behind the scenes from my second experience attending a seven-figure mastermind hosted by Jasmine Star and how different it felt from the first time she entered the room. From imposter syndrome and comparison to confidence, clarity, and calm...this episode breaks down the biggest lies women believe about scaling, success, and what it really takes to build a sustainable seven-figure business. Tune in to hear: What shifted between my first and second time in a seven-figure mastermind Why no one in the room was asking how to make more money and what they were asking instead The biggest myth about scaling (hint: it's not more complexity) Why most seven-figure businesses are built on one core product, one focus How identity shifts often happen before revenue catches up What it means to be underearning and why so many women are stuck there How calm, decisiveness, and risk-taking show up differently at higher levels Why personal brand is becoming one of the least risky assets you can build The real conversations happening behind the scenes about time, sustainability, and exit strategies Instagram: @dietitiandeanna and @online.entrepreneur.academy Want my help and strategies to have $30, $50 or $100K launches of your online program?

Eric addresses the psychological hurdles and financial risks contractors face when refusing professional guidance. He argues that while many business owners believe they can figure it out alone, this independent path often results in wasted time, lost profit margins, and severe personal strain. By collapsing time, coaching allows operators to avoid repetitive mistakes and move from being merely "good" to achieving intentional growth. He uses real-world examples, such as social media messaging and pricing strategies, to demonstrate how small shifts in perspective can yield significant returns. The episode serves as an invitation for contractors to prioritize their time and health by investing in mentorship rather than learning everything the hard way. Key Takeaways: Stop trying to figure everything out on your own and instead learn from the experiences of others to collapse the time it takes to reach your goals. Shift your messaging from being about yourself and your needs to focusing on how you provide value and serve your community or clients. Reevaluate your schedule to recognize that a lack of time is often a priority problem that can be solved by removing friction and focusing on proactive growth. Strive for greatness rather than settling for being "good enough," as true success involves creating opportunities and a bigger vision for those who work for you. Seek outside perspectives to identify the personal and professional blind spots that you are unable to see on your own.

We're back for more stories about the impact the David Eccles School of Business has on the lives and careers of our alumni, and today we are sharing another success story of connections made through the David Eccles Alumni Network with Ben Holley.Frances talks to Ben about how he went from earning a music degree at the University of Utah and an MBA from Harvard Business School to now the VP of Finance for Disney Entertainment Television. Ben discusses his career journey, the importance of curiosity, and how it has consistently opened unexpected opportunities along the way. Ben shares insights from his varied roles throughout his tenure with Disney and emphasizes the value of building relationships and connections along the way. He also touches on his philanthropic efforts supporting Ukrainian families affected by war through the efforts of To Ukraine with Love. This episode offers valuable advice for anyone navigating career changes, fostering curiosity, and maintaining optimism.Eccles Business Buzz is a production of the David Eccles School of Business and is produced by University.fm.Eccles Business Buzz is proud to be selected by FeedSpot as one of the Top 70 Business School podcasts on the web. Learn more at https://podcast.feedspot.com/us_business_school_podcasts. Episode Quotes:Ben reveals how building relationships and connections shaped his career path[12:41] The other theme besides curiosity that might emerge in this conversation you'll hear me say again and again is the importance of building relationships and building connections. Whether that be, as we've been discussing, to help manage a business that you're part of, or whether it's building your career, connecting to those that are further on in their careers that may be able to provide advice or guidance. I remember an experience as a student when I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do. I didn't really know what I wanted to do, and so I sat down and interviewed, in effect, 10 or 12 local businesspeople and asked them all about their jobs. I'd say, What do you like about your job? What do you hate about your job? What does your family think of your job? Do you make a lot of money? Do you not make a lot of money? What education did you have? Should I be thinking about an MBA? All of those questions. And the lesson I learned from that, walking away from all those interactions, there's not one that stands out to me as, Oh, that was the one; that was the silver bullet; that person knew everything that needed to be known. In reality, what happened was it was me talking about my interests and hearing other people react to those interests, and hearing a little bit about that helped me in my own mind to crystallize what I thought was sort of the right path for me, and that process of discussing and exploring different opportunities in different fields was really what helped me shape my own direction.On why students shouldn't be afraid to approach mentors and industry leaders[15:43] At the outset you do have to have a little bit of self-confidence to pick up the phone or send an email or a text or whatever to reach out and make that connection. But what I found, and I think what most people will find, is that people are eager to share their own experience and eager to give advice. They feel flattered, right? When you reach out to them and say, “Hey, you're smarter than me; tell me what I should do.” And so, if I could dispel the fear that some people feel about reaching out, know that most people are eager to share their experience and talk to especially students.How being curious and making bold moves helped Ben get to where he is today[17:18] I thought to myself, I'm capable. I can certainly explore it, right? Figure it out and try and make that move, and through a series of interactions and connections and opportunities that I was able to find myself in the role I'm in now supporting the television side of the business, which is so funny. I came into this a little bit naive, right? Thinking, oh, finance is finance and Disney is Disney. But in reality, the television business is very different than the parks and resorts business, and it took a long time for me to learn the business, to get to know the people, but it's the same thing. It's the same thing I was doing at the call center, right? It's, you know, find the guy who's running the tech, who's asking you questions, figure out how the business works, how the business runs. Connect with the people, understand who's making decisions and guiding the business, and get to know them and let them get to know you, and that'll serve you well. It served me well, certainly.Show Links:Ben Holley | LinkedInTo Ukraine with LoveUtah Entrepreneur ChallengeDavid Eccles School of Business (@ubusiness) | InstagramUndergraduate Scholars ProgramsRising Business LeadersEccles Alumni Network (@ecclesalumni) | Instagram Eccles Experience Magazine

Mid 8-Figure Exit Lessons: How to Avoid Millions in Taxes and Regret After the Sale with Nathan Collins Find Rocky Lalvani @ www.ProfitComesFirst.com or email him at rocky@profitcomesfirst.com Most business owners think the hardest part of selling a business is the deal. But the real danger often shows up after the sale: the taxes you didn't plan for and the identity shift you didn't expect In this episode of Profit Answer Man, Rocky Lalvani sits down with Nathan Collins, a former CEO who sold his business for a mid-eight-figure exit—and then realized he wasn't personally prepared for what came next. Nathan shares what he wishes he'd done differently, how business owners should think about diversifying outside the business, and why "exit readiness" is about far more than financials. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why many business owners hesitate to take money out of the business and invest elsewhere—and how that lack of diversification increases risk. The difference between preparing your business for sale vs preparing your life for the exit. The common "cheap" mistake founders make that can cost millions in avoidable taxes. Why your CPA and financial advisor often don't proactively plan together—and how that gap hurts business owners. What happens emotionally the day after the sale (and why so many owners feel lost even after a big win). The "liminal phase" after an exit—and how to prepare for it with purpose, community, and health. How systems like EOS/Traction and having the right people in the right seats can make your company stronger—and more sellable. Why many exits are forced (not planned) and why "exit-ready" equals resilience. The Big Takeaway: A profitable exit is not the finish line. If your identity, purpose, and community are built entirely around your company, selling can create a void—fast. And if you haven't done personal tax planning ahead of time, the IRS can take a bigger share than necessary. Exit planning is not just about maximizing the sale price. It's about being ready financially and personally—so you can enjoy the outcome you worked so hard to create. Bio: Nathan Collins is a wealth manager at Raymond James and a former CEO who sold his business through a successful middle-market process. He now helps business owners optimize business value, plan for liquidity events, and avoid the costly personal and financial mistakes that often happen around exits.

Build a business that can run without you, diversify so you're not financially trapped in one asset, and make sure you're building a life you actually want to "retire into." #ProfitAnswerMan #ProfitFirst #BusinessProfit #CashFlow #BusinessOwners #ExitPlanning #TaxPlanning #WealthManagement #EOS #Traction Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@profitanswerman Source Sign up to be notified when the next cohort of the Profit First Experience Course is available!

What if the problem isn't that you haven't found your purpose — but that you're trying to find something that was never meant to be found? In this episode, John sits down with Bill Burnett and Dave Evans, co-creators of Designing Your Life, to explore a radically relieving idea: There is no final version of you. Instead of chasing meaning, purpose, or fulfillment as a destination, Bill and Dave invite us to see life as a process of becoming — and meaning as something we practice daily, not achieve once. This conversation is for anyone who feels behind, unfinished, or quietly exhausted from trying to “figure life out.” You don't need a breakthrough. You need a reframe.

What does it really take to build a seven figure spa without sacrificing your sanity, your family time, or your joy for the business? In this powerful episode of Spa Marketing Made Easy, Daniela sits down with Fola, founder of Gizel Atlanta, who scaled her med spa to seven figures in just three and a half years. But this isn't just another revenue story.

In this episode of The Trader's Journey, Anthony sits down with Max Ganik, Senior Trader at SMB Capital, to discuss his path into professional stock trading. Max was introduced to markets at an early age, started trading options as a teenager, and eventually chose prop trading over the traditional sales & trading route after graduating from the University of Michigan. Max walks us through his first year on the desk in 2020, the wild momentum markets that shaped his early edge, and how he evolved from small-cap scalper to options-focused large-cap and idea trader. He breaks down his framework for grading his trades, overcoming drawdowns, how he thinks about risk tiers, and much more.

Ayurvedic practitioner and author Heather Grzych explores why so many people feel stuck asking "What's my purpose in life?" – and why thinking harder rarely brings clarity. Drawing on embodied wisdom, Ayurveda, and cultural storytelling, Heather explains how purpose isn't a mental decision but a bodily signal that emerges when we stop forcing answers. Using contrasting film characters like Billy Elliot and Black Swan, she shows how listening to physical cues like energy, ease, and aliveness leads to meaningful direction, while ignoring the body leads to burnout and confusion. This episode is for anyone questioning their career, identity, or life direction and wondering why what once made sense no longer feels right. Heather Grzych, ADLC is an American author and expert in Ayurvedic medicine who was formerly the president of the National Ayurvedic Medical Association and the head of product development for a multi-billion-dollar health insurance company. Heather's first book, The Ayurvedic Guide to Fertility, has sold thousands of copies worldwide, and her writing has been featured in Sports Illustrated, Yoga Journal, and the Sunday Independent. Her podcast, Wisdom of the Body, holds an average rating of 5 stars on Apple Podcasts and is in the top 2.5% of podcasts globally.

Chris Gardner is chief financial officer at Wofford College in Spartanburg, South Carolina. In this episode, Gardner joins our host Melissa Farley to discuss the evolving role of higher education CFOs, building authentic leadership through relationship-focused management, and navigating institutional identity in challenging times. "I want people to hopefully feel like they could approach me, that I could be a partner in whatever situation they were navigating. The CFO or business office can very easily get the reputation of being the office of 'no'," Gardner says, reflecting on the legacy he hopes to leave. "I would much rather be known as the office of 'I'm not sure, but let's try and figure it out.'" Gardner emphasizes the importance of partnership and creative problem-solving in financial leadership. Join us for a conversation with Gardner as he discusses implementing major technology transitions at a small institution, maintaining institutional identity in a changing higher education landscape, and developing the next generation of financial leaders through mentorship and empowerment.

How to Trade Stocks and Options Podcast by 10minutestocktrader.com
Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.This video is all about one thing that decides whether trades work or fail: alignment between the market, the sector, and the stock. If those three are not pointing in the same direction, trading gets harder, drawdowns get deeper, and frustration ramps up fast. When they are aligned, trading feels cleaner, calmer, and far more consistent.A major point hammered home is how little control an individual stock actually has on its own. Roughly speaking, the market drives the biggest portion of price movement. The sector comes next. The stock itself is last. That means you can find what looks like a perfect setup, but if the market is weak or the sector is getting crushed, the odds are stacked against you before you even click buy.This is why cash is treated as a real position, not a failure. When the market is on a sell signal, the goal is not to be clever. The goal is to protect capital. Forcing trades in bad conditions is how accounts slowly bleed. Sitting in cash keeps risk low and leaves room to press when conditions improve.A lot of time is spent on options risk management, specifically rolling for credit. Rolling is not about trading more or being active for the sake of it. It is about reducing risk. Every roll for credit offsets the original cost of the trade, removes exposure, and locks in progress. Even if the trade completely collapses later, the damage is dramatically smaller than if nothing had been managed along the way.Another important concept is how winning streaks can actually be dangerous. After a run of good trades, many traders start sizing up, bending rules, or assuming the next trade will behave like the last one. That is usually when losses hit hardest. Each trade is independent. The market does not care what happened yesterday. Discipline matters most when confidence is high.Volatility and structure also matter, especially with options. Leveraged ETFs, wide bid ask spreads, low open interest, and volatility drag can all distort pricing. If you do not understand how these forces work, options can move against you even when the stock looks fine on the surface.Here are the key ideas covered in detail:✅ Market direction matters more than any single stock setup✅ Sector strength can amplify gains or completely cap them✅ Stock setups only work best when market and sector agree✅ Cash is a strategic position when conditions are poor✅ Rolling options for credit removes risk instead of chasing upside✅ Partial profits protect accounts during pullbacks✅ Winning streaks increase risk if discipline slips✅ Volatility drag impacts leveraged ETFs over time✅ Liquidity and spreads directly affect option performanceThe OVTLYR framework is used throughout to keep decisions objective. Signals are not predictions. They are filters. If alignment is missing, the answer is simple: do nothing. If alignment is present, risk can be taken with intention instead of hope.This approach strips trading down to its core. Protect capital first. Trade when conditions are favorable. Manage risk aggressively. Let winners run without getting emotional. The goal is not excitement. The goal is survival and consistency over time.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd. Start trading smarter today

Send us a textIn this Fusion Hack, Kerryne Henich shares three high-impact self-development books that can reshape how you build habits, set goals, and navigate relationships.Kerryne breaks down why real habit formation takes longer than most people expect (and how to stay consistent when progress feels slow). She also introduces a more sustainable approach to growth: finding “stepping stones” instead of fixating on one massive end goal—so you can build momentum without burning out.From there, the conversation expands into how The Litman Theory applies beyond one area of life, offering a lens for personal accountability, decision-making, and the ripple effects of everyday choices. The episode closes with a grounded discussion on mindset and communication—especially why it can be hard to compromise with other viewpoints, and how self-awareness plays a role in staying open, calm, and intentional as you grow.Kerryne Henich is an accomplished IFBB Bikini Professional, Olympian, and dedicated Fitbody Fusion Coach. Her competition journey began in 2008 in the Figure division, but after transitioning to Bikini in 2011, she earned her pro card at the 2015 NPC Jr National Championships and qualified for the Olympia in 2018. In 2023, Kerryne competed in the inaugural Masters Olympia in Romania, placing 4th, and is thrilled to be invited back for the 2025 Masters Olympia in Japan. As a wife, mom, bonus mom, and dog mom, Kerryne balances family life with her passion for coaching, inspiring athletes to reach their fullest potential through Fitbody Fusion.

Thank you to our sponsor, Figure! Ethereum scaling network Polygon is charting a new course. Polygon on Jan. 13 announced that it was becoming a “regulated U.S. payments platform” following the acquisition of Web3 services companies Coinme and Sequence. In this Unchained episode, Polygon Labs CEO Marc Boiron reveals the motivations behind the pivot and what it means for the network and its native token POL. He says that despite the pivot, Polygon is not becoming an application chain. Can Polygon thrive in the stablecoin dominated space? And will POL benefit?

Thank you to our sponsor, Figure! As tensions between the Trump administration and the Federal Reserve rise, gold and silver have surged to record highs. Bitcoin, meanwhile, has struggled to keep pace, raising uncomfortable questions about its “digital gold” narrative. In this back-to-back Unchained episode, Vinny Lingham, cofounder of Xash, and Eric Fine, portfolio manager at VanEck, offer two distinct but complementary perspectives on what's happening beneath the surface of global markets. Vinny explains why gold's liquidity, trust, and central-bank adoption still dwarf Bitcoin's, and why that gap led him to design a gold-backed, reward-bearing stablecoin, USDX. Eric walks through VanEck's provocative analysis showing gold could reach $39,000 or even $184,000 if the dollar were to lose its reserve-currency dominance and gold had to back the money supply. He also dives into why some developed markets may be more fragile than investors assume.
