What does your circle actually look like? Who is your community? Candace and Madi talk about the loneliness of post-college life, navigating new seasons as a wife and mom, and share the real challenges of finding and keeping the right people around you. Candace and Madi open up about moments when the people they chose to spend time with led them in the wrong direction, and the friends who pointed them back toward Jesus. Madi shares a vulnerable story about a night that went sideways and what it taught her about the power of peer influence. Candace reflects on the crazy underground Hollywood party she and Val stumbled into, and the lifelong friend who sat her down and asked the question that changed her trajectory: 'How is your walk with God? They explore what it looks like to build community in every season, whether you are newly single after college, settling into marriage, raising littles, or starting fresh in a brand new city. Candace reminds listeners that online community counts, that technology makes it possible to have deep friendships across the miles, and that you are never too old to make new friends. (Her dad at 82 proves it in the most adorable story you will hear today. They close the episode by tackling a listener question about what to do when a close friend isn't willing to forgive and make up. Their answer is full of grace, honesty, and hope for anyone carrying the weight of a broken relationship.

Most people think they know where their money goes each month… but when they actually run an expense audit, they find hundreds—sometimes thousands—of dollars quietly leaking out of their budget. Today we're walking through how to run a simple expense audit, how to find those leaks, and how to use a "value matrix" to decide what's worth keeping—and what's quietly draining your life and your wallet.

High performers often feel financial pressure even when the numbers are solid. If you carry responsibility but rarely exhale, this may not be about money at all. It may be about identity, safety, and the weight you've quietly agreed to hold.High performers are rarely afraid of being poor.They are afraid of being responsible and failing.In this episode, we explore why financial pressure lingers even when income is stable and reserves are strong. If you've built success yet still feel a quiet vigilance around money, this conversation names what your body already knows.This is not about budgeting or strategy. It is about identity.We explore how high achievers may unconsciously use money as:Proof of competenceInsulation against exposureLeverage in uncertaintySafety when relational trust feels fragileOver time, financial success can fuse with personal worth. The nervous system learns that control equals protection.That is not greed. It is attachment.For some leaders, money feels more predictable than people. Money responds to effort. Relationships do not always do the same. When trust has felt costly, financial control can become the most reliable stabilizer in the room.This episode lives in the Recognition stage of the Identity-Level Recalibration pathway. Recognition means we do not fix. We notice the subtle hum that says, “Stay ahead. Never again.”Identity-Level Recalibration is not another mindset tactic. It is the root-level recalibration that stabilizes the person holding the outcomes. High performance optimizes results. Recalibration steadies the nervous system carrying responsibility.If you feel:Exhausted by invisible financial pressureConfused by why success does not settle youQuietly strained where money carries unspoken powerThis episode begins the shift from vigilance to grounded stewardship.Recognition precedes resolution.Orientation comes before action.Today's Micro Recalibration:When you think about money, does your body soften or tighten?Where do you feel it?What are you actually trying to protect?No fixing.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Leah Miller discuss: Run your law firm like a business, not a hobby Use accurate financials to avoid hidden risks and overpayment Track key metrics and benchmarks for people, operations, and marketing Leverage metrics to make strategic growth decisions   Key Takeaways: Long-term growth requires regular attention to financials. Cash in the bank is not a strategy; data should guide hiring, marketing, and operational decisions. Bad bookkeeping masks problems and can cost in taxes. Early investment in a bookkeeper or financial team yields high ROI and clarity. Monitor payroll, operating costs, and marketing spend as percentages of revenue. Focus on trends over time and adapt to what works for your firm. Financial data informs hiring, marketing, and process improvements. Treat new hires as investments, plan for cash gaps, and track time spent on business development for accountability.   "If you're not paying attention to the dollars and you're not operational decisions based on the finances, you are not going to have that long-term, sustained growth that you're looking for as a lawyer in a firm." —  Leah Miller   Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.   Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

On this week's Merryn Talks Money podcast, host Merryn Somerset Webb speaks with financial historian Edward Chancellor about how energy constraints and geopolitical tensions could reshape markets, whether the artificial intelligence boom is a bubble and what it all means for interest rates. Chancellor argues that AI enthusiasm may be overextended, warns of rising long-term rates and sovereign debt risks and makes the case for gold, commodities, Japan and emerging markets over bonds and expensive growth stocks.

For more than a decade, businesses operated in an environment of easy capital. Low interest rates, aggressive funding cycles, and abundant investment made rapid expansion feel normal. Growth was often measured by speed rather than sustainability. But that era is changing. In Episode 683 of Daily Influence, Brian Smith explores The New Capital Reality — Growth Without Easy Money and why financial discipline is becoming one of the defining leadership skills of our time. As capital tightens and expectations increase, leaders are being asked a different question: not “How fast can you grow?” but “How responsibly can you operate?” Brian examines the risks of ego-driven scaling, the importance of cash flow maturity, and how S.M.A.R.T. break-even management creates clarity when resources are constrained. Because constraint does not weaken leadership. It reveals it. And ultimately, financial maturity is not just about numbers—it reflects how responsibly leaders steward the resources entrusted to them. Financial maturity is influence maturity. Listen now on your favorite podcast platform.

While Strasser sought to save the movement through compromise, Hitler remained steadfast, eventually declaring a minor victory in Lippe as a triumph. (6)1933 BERLIN

Everyone loves them. Your friends think they're charming. Your family thinks you're lucky. You know what they're really like at home. And you wonder if you're the crazy one.This is Parts 3 and 4 of "Surviving the Fog"—examining financial coercive control and the psychology of the mask through the Kouri Richins case. We're not diagnosing anyone. We're exploring documented patterns that explain how intelligent people end up trapped.Prosecutors allege Kouri was $4.5 million in debt when Eric died. Over 200 overdraft transactions totaling $300,000. A $3.2 million mansion closing the day of his death. Financial abuse creates chains so complete that leaving becomes impossible—not because you're afraid, but because you literally cannot afford to go.The chaos strategy keeps you reactive. The "we" weapon makes every decision feel shared while one person controls. The flip turns your questions into accusations. The trap follows you: destroyed credit, joint debt, sabotaged employment. Financial desperation is a documented lethality indicator—when the house of cards collapses, danger spikes.Then there's the mask. After Eric died, Kouri wrote a children's book about grief. Featured her sons. Did media appearances as the grieving widow helping families heal. All while under investigation for allegedly murdering her husband.Public image management means every interaction is curated, building character witnesses before they're needed. "They would never"—the narrative gets set before you speak. Flying monkeys reinforce their reality while your support network erodes. Two people exist: warm and generous in public, cold and critical at home.The pressure paradox: the mask doesn't crack under scrutiny. It becomes more elaborate. The worse the truth, the better the performance has to be.The public saint and private monster are the same person. Trust what you see at home.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This is our Week in Review of the Kouri Richins murder trial—and the prosecution's key witnesses are telling different stories under oath.Carmen Lauber testified she bought fentanyl for Kouri Richins four times before Eric died. Robert Crozier—the man who allegedly supplied those drugs to Lauber—took the stand and said something different. He testified he only sold oxycodone, not fentanyl, because "everybody was scared of fentanyl" at the time. He claimed he was "detoxing and out of it" during his original statement to detectives. Lauber herself admitted confusion under cross-examination.When your two central witnesses can't agree on what the drugs actually were, the prosecution has a problem.Former FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke spent 21 years with the Bureau, including time as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. His career was built on reading people in high-stakes environments—separating truth from performance, assessing credibility under pressure. He examines what behavioral signals reveal whether a witness with credibility wounds is still telling core truth versus constructing a self-serving narrative. He also reads Kouri's sustained composure through five days of devastating testimony.Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down whether the prosecution can recover. The state played a recording of Kouri calling the medical examiner's office asking detailed questions about substances found in Eric's body. But Bob analyzes whether that shows consciousness of guilt—or exactly what you'd expect from a widow trying to understand her husband's death.The most significant fact the jury has heard: the state's own former Chief Medical Examiner still lists Eric's manner of death as "undetermined." Not homicide. Four years later.Over twenty witnesses called. Fentanyl in Eric's system established. Financial problems documented. Boyfriend confirmed. But the prosecution still hasn't proven how fentanyl got into Eric or that Kouri administered it.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Everyone loves them. Your friends think they're charming. Your family thinks you're lucky. You know what they're really like at home.That's the loneliest place a human being can be. Tonight we're examining the psychology of coercive control through the Kouri Richins case—Parts 3 and 4 of "Surviving the Fog." We're not diagnosing anyone. We're exploring documented patterns.Financial abuse creates invisible chains. Prosecutors allege Kouri was $4.5 million in debt when Eric died. Over 200 overdraft transactions. A $3.2 million mansion closing the day of his death—one she allegedly couldn't afford. Financial desperation is a lethality indicator in domestic violence research. When the house of cards collapses, danger spikes.The chaos strategy keeps victims reactive—constant crisis means you never step back to see the pattern. The "we" weapon makes every decision feel shared while control stays with one person. And when you finally ask questions about money? The flip happens. Suddenly you're controlling. You don't trust them. You end up apologizing.Then there's the mask. After Eric died, Kouri wrote a children's book about grief. Featured her sons. Promoted it on media appearances as the grieving widow helping families heal. All while under investigation for allegedly murdering her husband.Public image management means every interaction is curated. Character witnesses get built before they're needed. "They would never" becomes the narrative before you can speak—because they told their version first. Flying monkeys get recruited to reinforce their reality while your support network disappears.The pressure paradox: the mask doesn't crack under scrutiny. It becomes more elaborate. The worse the truth, the better the performance has to be.The public saint and private monster are the same person.

Why don't we talk about money when we talk about domestic abuse? And why do abusers look so perfect to everyone except the person living with them?This is Parts 3 and 4 of "Surviving the Fog"—examining financial abuse and public image manipulation through the Kouri Richins case. We're not diagnosing anyone. We're exploring documented psychological patterns.Prosecutors allege Kouri Richins was $4.5 million in debt. Over 200 overdraft transactions totaling $300,000. A $3.2 million mansion closing the day Eric died—one she allegedly couldn't afford. Financial abuse doesn't leave bruises, but research shows financial desperation is a lethality indicator. When the house of cards collapses, danger spikes.The chaos strategy keeps partners reactive—constant financial crisis means you're always putting out fires, never analyzing the pattern. The "we" weapon makes decisions feel shared while one person controls. The flip turns your questions into accusations—suddenly you're the controlling one. The trap follows even after leaving: destroyed credit, joint debt, sabotaged employment.Then there's the mask. After Eric died, Kouri wrote a children's book about grief. Featured her sons on the cover. Did media appearances as the grieving widow helping families heal. All while under investigation for allegedly murdering her husband. If the prosecution is right, this is the mask at its most extreme.We break down documented patterns: Public image management—building character witnesses before they're needed. "They would never"—four dangerous words that set the narrative before you can speak. Flying monkeys—people recruited to reinforce their reality.The pressure paradox explains why scrutiny makes the mask stronger, not weaker. The worse the truth, the better the performance.Trust what you see at home. Not what everyone else sees.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

We've Got Issues | Boundary Issues | Carl NicholsIn this message from our We've Got Issues series, Pastor Carl Nichols talks about one of the biggest challenges in modern marriages: boundaries. Culture constantly tries to shape how relationships work, but God's Word calls us to something better. When boundaries are unclear or ignored, marriages often drift toward what culture says is normal instead of what God designed. In this message, we explore six areas where marriages commonly struggle with boundaries and how Scripture helps us protect what matters most.Looking for the homework? Head here: https://www.myrelevant.cc/boundariesRomans 12:1–2 reminds us not to conform to the pattern of this world but to be transformed by the renewing of our minds.Topics covered in this message:In-law boundariesWork & time boundariesDigital & electronic boundariesEmotional & opposite-sex boundariesFinancial boundariesSexual boundariesHealthy boundaries are not about rejection—they are about protection.When we intentionally establish them, we create space for trust, intimacy, and a marriage that honors God.Boundaries don't limit love—they protect it.

The Venezuelan Financial Controls are Moving to Iran Next - and this will help end the war, and give the Iranian people more control. Over 2 billion dollars a year will not be going to proxy fighters, and that could go right back into the Iranian people's interests. Improving their country. Hang on while we go through how. A comprehensive overview of the interconnected geopolitical, energy market, and financial aspects of the current energy crisis, with a particular focus on the Middle East tensions and their global implications.Based on the analysis, here are the main topics discussed in this transcript:1. Middle East Geopolitical Tensions The transcript centers heavily on escalating conflicts involving the US, Israel, and Iran. It covers drone attacks on critical energy infrastructure in the region and discusses how these tensions are destabilizing the area, particularly around the strategically important Strait of Hormuz.2. Global Energy Market Disruptions A significant focus is on how Middle East instability is rippling through global oil and LNG markets. The discussion includes rising oil prices, potential LNG shortages (especially from Qatar), and how major energy consumers like China and India are responding by diversifying their energy sources, particularly increasing purchases from Russia.3. Financial and Hedging Strategies in Energy Sectors The transcript explores the complex financial mechanisms used by oil and gas companies to manage risk. It examines how current market volatility is affecting their cash flows, profitability, and hedging practices during this period of uncertainty.4. US Government Policy and Energy Control There's substantial discussion of US government actions—particularly under the Trump administration—including sanctions, financial controls, and strategic efforts to influence global energy market dynamics and geopolitical outcomes.5. Broader Geopolitical and Economic Consequences The transcript addresses wider implications of the energy crisis, including potential deindustrialization of Europe, shifts in energy trade flows toward Asia, and fundamental geopolitical realignments resulting from these energy market changes.The Stories we covered on today's Podcast on Energynewsbeat.co1.The Oil and Gas Markets are Changing for Peace and Supporting the US Dollar2.Fire Engulfs Shahr-e Rey Oil Refinery in Southern Tehran: Israeli Strikes Target Iran's Energy Infrastructure3.Iran Conflict Sets the LNG Markets on End: What Does This Mean for the Market, Investors, and Consumers?4.Russia Following the Money: Shifting Gas and Oil Sales to Asia5.The U.S. Merchant Marine Fleet Needs an Update6.Iran-Linked Ships Transit as Others Wait for Insurance7.US Oil Rig Count UP as WTI Moves UP to $92.21Check out the Energy News Beat Substack: https://theenergynewsbeat.substack.com/Shout out to Reese Energy Consulting https://reeseenergyconsulting.com/Get your CEO on the #1 Energy Podcast in the United States: https://sandstoneassetmgmt.com/media/Is oil and gas right for your portfolio? https://energynewsbeat.co/invest/

This is our Week in Review of the Kouri Richins murder trial—and the prosecution's case is facing serious questions.The jury has heard two completely different realities over five days. The prosecution says Kouri systematically positioned insurance policies, sourced fentanyl through her housekeeper Carmen Lauber, and poisoned Eric for money. The defense says Lauber is a meth user who changed her story after getting immunity, her own supplier now contradicts her, and the physical evidence connecting Kouri to Eric's death simply doesn't exist.Carmen Lauber testified she bought fentanyl for Kouri four times. Robert Crozier—her alleged supplier—testified under oath that he only sold oxycodone, not fentanyl, because "everybody was scared of fentanyl" at the time. He claimed he was "detoxing and out of it" during his original statement to detectives. Two key witnesses. Two different stories about what the drugs actually were.Former FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke spent 21 years with the Bureau, including time as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. He assesses what behavioral signals indicate whether witnesses with credibility wounds are telling core truth—or constructing narratives serving self-interest. He reads Kouri's sustained composure through five days of damaging testimony and examines when behavioral evidence becomes more persuasive than missing physical evidence.Defense attorney Bob Motta identifies the most significant fact: four years later, the state's own former Chief Medical Examiner still lists Eric's manner of death as "undetermined"—not homicide. He analyzes the prosecution's nine-minute phone call recording and explains what absolutely has to happen for this case to remain viable.Over twenty witnesses called. Fentanyl established. Financial problems documented. Boyfriend confirmed. But no proof of how fentanyl entered Eric's body or that Kouri administered it.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three cases. Three legal minefields. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the week's biggest developments in one extended conversation.Kouri Richins' finances are now on full display for the jury. A forensic accountant testified she was $1.6 million in debt the day after Eric died—business imploding, checks bouncing, hard money loans stacking. The prosecution wants jurors to see premeditation. The defense says it's just reckless spending from someone who was always in over her head. Eric Faddis explains how financial evidence becomes murder motive—and where that argument can fall apart.In the Nancy Guthrie case, there's still no arrest—but innocent people are already suffering. A man was detained, questioned for hours, and released. A schoolteacher is being harassed by amateur investigators convinced he matches doorbell footage. The Guthrie family had to be publicly cleared. Eric Faddis explains what legal recourse exists when you've been named in a case you had nothing to do with.And the Cascio family—who spent 25 years defending Michael Jackson in court, on television, and in print—are now suing, alleging he drugged, raped, and trafficked them since childhood. The estate calls it extortion. A hearing this week determines whether this goes to public trial or sealed arbitration. Eric Faddis breaks down the credibility nightmare, the settlement the Cascios already collected, and what federal trafficking law actually requires.One conversation. Three completely different legal questions.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Mar 6, 2026 – How much of an impact with the Iran war and spiking oil prices have on inflation, widely expected Fed rate cuts, and the markets? Jim Puplava sits down with renowned market strategist Jim Bianco for a wide-ranging discussion...

Mar 6, 2026 – When energy markets and geopolitical tensions collide, does the traditional investment playbook still hold? With oil surpassing $90 a barrel, investors are facing a complex landscape of supply chain vulnerabilities and inflationary pressures.

This episode details how we recently made the decision to purchase a full Bitcoin, not because we're abandoning the strategy that built our foundation, but because we've continued to evolve our understanding of diversification. After some recent conversations with a few mentors we respect, it pushed us to think deeper about how we position our portfolio for the long term. Real estate will always remain our core focus. Buying multifamily properties, creating cash flow, and building equity, but we also believe in allocating a small portion of capital to assets that can hedge against broader macroeconomic risks.   One of the reasons Bitcoin stands out is its decentralized nature and fixed supply. Unlike traditional currencies that can be printed and controlled by central banks, Bitcoin operates on a network that no single entity controls. In a world where the money supply continues to expand and inflation erodes purchasing power, we view Bitcoin as a potential hedge against the long-term debasement of the dollar.   That said, we're not replacing real estate with Bitcoin. Multifamily and rental properties will continue to be the backbone of our portfolio because of the cash flow, tax advantages, and value creation opportunities they provide. Bitcoin simply represents a small, strategic allocation within a broader wealth-building strategy - one that allows us to stay heavily invested in real estate while also diversifying into assets that may benefit from long-term economic shifts. We figured this episode would give some insight into our thought process and recent decision making  Book your call with Neo Home Loanshttps://www.neoentrepreneurhomeloans.com/wealthjuice/ Book your mentorship discovery call with Cory RESOURCES

If the state can freeze your life savings for a peaceful protest, do you actually own your money? Chris Pavlovski (@chrispavlovski) moved Rumble to Florida after witnessing this reality in Canada. We explore how government censorship is a strategy to maintain the fiat status quo and why the only solution is to build a parallel world for the sovereign individual.The shift in Canada serves as a warning for every HODLer. Chris breaks down how independent media is being choked out by state-funded propaganda and restrictive laws. Relying on big tech platforms for permission to speak is a losing game for those who value the truth.Rumble is building the physical cloud infrastructure required for a free internet. Being cancel-proof means owning the servers and data centers so no authority can flip a switch to turn you off. By refusing the content moderation demands of Brazil and Russia, Rumble proves a platform can succeed through a proof of work ethos.Financial sovereignty is the final piece of the puzzle. Rumble has integrated a non-custodial wallet to bypass fiat gatekeepers using Bitcoin and Tether Gold. This ensures creators can never be debanked by using decentralized rails that no authority can seize.The battle for attention is moving to Rumble Shorts, providing a censorship resistant alternative to state-aligned algorithms.
