War leaves a lasting impact-not just on those who fight, but on the generations that follow. Lieutenant Colonel Patrick Naughton grew up in the shadow of his father's Vietnam service, ultimately choosing to follow in his footsteps. With a career spanning the infantry, medical corps, and leadership roles in Washington, D.C., he brings a unique perspective on how war shapes identity, leadership, and transition. In this episode, we discuss the lessons military leaders should have learned from Vietnam and how those mistakes were repeated in Iraq and Afghanistan. Patrick shares insights from his book, Born From War, which parallels his father's time in Vietnam with his own service in Iraq, and how history continues to shape the military experience. We also dive into the challenges of reintegration, the importance of finding a new mission after service, and why military leadership isn't always about filling sandbags next to your troops. Whether you're navigating transition, struggling to find purpose, or just looking for real conversations about military life, this episode delivers hard-earned wisdom from the front lines and beyond.

What would your life look like if all screens and distractions suddenly disappeared? How much more of yourself would you give to God, your spouse, your children, and your true purpose?In this thought-provoking episode, I tackle the epidemic of distraction plaguing American Christians. Our phones, televisions, and endless entertainment options aren't just stealing our attention—they're robbing us of our most precious resource: time. This isn't about technology being inherently evil; it's about how we've allowed these tools to displace what truly matters.Drawing from Matthew 24, I explore Jesus's warnings about the end times and the importance of vigilance: "Therefore be on the alert, for you do not know which day your Lord is coming." Too many of us behave like the unfaithful servant who says "my master is delayed" while pursuing selfish desires. Yet whether through Christ's return or our own mortality, none of us can guarantee tomorrow.This distraction crisis extends beyond personal spirituality into our national consciousness. I share the story of Medal of Honor recipient Staff Sergeant Travis W. Atkins, who sacrificed his life by throwing himself on a suicide bomber to save his fellow soldiers in Iraq. Why do our children know celebrities' names but not those who've given everything for our freedom? This disconnect reveals a profound sickness in America's soul.As Frederick Douglass wisely observed, "Righteousness exalteth a nation, and sin is a reproach to any people." This principle, quoted by numerous American leaders throughout history, remains our only path forward. We face a stark choice between Christ and chaos, biblical truth and progressive confusion, liberty and chains already forged by those advancing godless ideologies.Join me in examining what we truly value, as revealed not by our words but by how we spend our irreplaceable time. Are you ready to break free from distraction and reclaim your spiritual purpose?Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

How can Christian entrepreneurs can eliminate distractions, escape comparison, and focus on what truly matters? Garrett is joined today by Matt Farnham and together, they challenge the hustle narrative by encouraging listeners to work from approval, not for it, and to focus their energy on what brings purpose, significance, and eternal value.From the tension between work and family to the trap of perfectionism and the power of divine appointments, this episode is a roadmap to purpose-driven living in business and beyond. Garrett and Matt also introduce the launch of the One Life Podcast, created to help Christians live intentionally and fully aligned with their calling.Key Takeaways:✅ Distraction is one of the enemy's greatest tools—eliminate it to refocus on what's eternal✅ Comparison culture robs contentment and clarity✅ Harmony, not balance, is the key to integrating work and family✅ You are already approved in Christ—work from that truth✅ Focus on things that make tomorrow better than today✅ Spiritual warfare often looks like busyness and perfectionism✅ Your God-given talents point to your unique calling✅ Delegation and simplicity can free you to focus on significance✅ Presence > proximity when it comes to family✅ Faith should anchor both personal and professional decisions✅ Divine appointments often require slowing down to notice✅ You don't retire from a life of purpose—you lean deeper into itEpisode Chapters:⏳ 00:00 – Introduction to the One Life Journey

In this episode of "The Free Lawyer," host Gary Miles interviews Dan Schneiderman, a personal injury trial attorney who recently opened his own practice. Dan, from a family of medical professionals, shares his journey from a deputy district attorney to entrepreneurship. He emphasizes the importance of mentorship, strategic career planning, and work-life balance. The discussion highlights Dan's transition challenges, his calculated approach to starting his firm, and the value of coaching in overcoming imposter syndrome. The episode offers insights into managing stress, maintaining productivity, and achieving fulfillment in the legal profession.As the owner and founder of Schneiderman Trial Attorneys, Mr. Schneiderman's primary practice involves representing plaintiffs involved in personal injury disputes through mediation, arbitration, or trial in both state and federal court. Mr. Schneiderman's clients are typically individuals that have been injured or wronged due to the fault of another, and are in or anticipate litigation for personal injury-related matters. Mr. Schneiderman's specialty areas include matters involving traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, catastrophic injury and wrongful death. As a trial attorney, Mr. Schneiderman has handled numerous complex, high-stakes civil and injury cases, achieving millions in results for my clients through trial, arbitration, and settlement in state and federal court. For his work, Mr. Schneiderman has been rated by Super Lawyers magazine as being in the top 2.5% of attorneys under 40 years old, receiving the Rising Stars Award for his performance in civil litigation each year since 2016. Mr. Schneiderman has and continues to work towards providing his clients with an open and transparent attorney-client relationship, an effort that has earned him a “5 out of 5” star average client review and rating of “10/10” on the attorney review website. When he's not trying to get into a courtroom, you can usually find Dan trying to get to the beach for a surf, hanging out with his wife Vicki, two kids, and their two pets (a crazy cat and an English Bulldog), trying to invent or 3D print something in his garage, golfing, trying to write, fishing with his pops, or laying in the hammock in the backyard.Importance of Mentorship (00:10:52)Reflections on Wins and Losses (00:13:07)Control Over Professional Life (00:14:06)Seeking Coaching (00:17:01)Value of Support in Legal Profession (00:19:50)Lessons from Past Experiences (00:21:36)Calculated Launch of a New Firm (00:22:00)Defining Success and Personal Goals (00:22:37)Work-Life Balance Challenges (00:24:42)Email Management and Productivity (00:25:45)Crisis Management in Law (00:27:44)Imposter Syndrome Among Lawyers (00:29:05)Comparing Personal Growth (00:30:36)Finding Purpose in Legal Work (00:31:16)Creating Client Relationships (00:35:12)Vision for the New Firm (00:36:46)Value of Coaching and Mentorship (00:38:37)Would you like to learn more about Breaking Free or order your copy? https://www.garymiles.net/break-free Would you like to schedule a complimentary discovery call?

What happens when your name becomes shorthand for a crime you didn't commit? At just 20 years old, Amanda Knox was catapulted into global infamy after being accused of murdering her roommate, Meredith Kercher, while studying abroad in Italy.What should have been a formative experience turned into a wrongful conviction, four years in prison, and a sustained and lurid mischaracterisation by the world – casting her not as an innocent young woman caught in the crossfire, but as a cold-blooded killer.Now, Amanda joins Andy to share the raw, painfully-earned insight that comes from surviving one of the most widely known miscarriages of justice in modern history – a journey through shock, shame, and ultimately, perspective and peace.From lying on a prison cell mattress to forging an unlikely friendship with Giuliano Mignini — the prosecutor who put her there — this is a deeply human conversation about identity, survival, and the immense strength it takes to reclaim your own story when the world has tried to write it for you.LinksThis podcast is brought to you by Crisis What Crisis?

When collegiate athletes hang up their jerseys, they often face a profound identity crisis that few discuss openly. In this deeply personal conversation, former college baseball player Ryan and ex-football star Carl share their transformative journeys from competitive sports to sustainable fitness, revealing the mental and physical challenges that came with this transition.Both men candidly discuss how their relationship with fitness evolved from an all-or-nothing competitive mindset to a more balanced approach focused on longevity. "I don't want to say never," Carl reflects when asked about chasing his college lifting records, "but I definitely don't have a desire to squat 500 pounds again." This shift represents a powerful maturation that many former athletes struggle to achieve.The conversation takes a particularly vulnerable turn when discussing body image issues among men. Despite being among the fittest people at their gym, both admit to struggling with how they perceive themselves. "I don't think there was ever a time in my life, even in my most fit in college, that I was like 'oh yeah, this is what I want to look like,'" Carl reveals. This rarely-discussed aspect of male fitness culture highlights how body dysmorphia affects men in silence, often without support systems.Their evolution extends beyond physical training into nutrition, recovery, and mental health management. Ryan describes how his current fitness goals support his aspirations to become a firefighter and family man, while Carl shares how consistent training functions as his anchor during professional challenges. Both emphasize consistency over intensity—a lesson learned through years of trial and error.Want to transform your relationship with fitness beyond just physical results? Join us for this honest exploration of what happens when the scoreboard disappears but the need for movement, community, and purpose remains. Your health journey isn't about recapturing past glory—it's about building a sustainable future where fitness supports your evolving life goals.Follow us on Instagram here! https://www.instagram.com/doubleedgefitness/

After years of service in the U.S. Navy, and a successful career in the corporate world, Michael Roviello found himself battling crippling neck and back pain. This led to a less-than-successful surgery and self-medicating with alcohol and prescription pain meds.  When faced with the prospect of having another surgery, he embarked on a healing journey that didn't come with more prescriptions or procedures, but through nature, ancient healing traditions, and deep introspection.  Today, Michael is the co-founder of Optimyze, a wellness studio in Phoenix, Arizona. Optimyze has become a community that empowers others to take personal responsibility for their physical, mental, and emotional health through natural healing methods. In our conversation, Michael shares how his search for answers led him to meet Wim Hof and leave his corporate job to explore plant medicine, the science, and the benefits of cold plunges, breathwork, and energy practices.

Financial coach and bookkeeper Amber Joy Pietrangelo never planned on having her own business after business classes in college completely turned her off from entrepreneurship.But now, Amber has created a unique coaching approach where bookkeeping and financial guidance blend seamlessly. In her own business. After struggling through multiple career and business shifts, Amber discovered her “magic sauce,” getting financial data organized and then helping clients truly understand what the numbers mean for their future decisions. What started as a search for purpose after personal struggles has evolved into her own authentic business model.Working as a CFO for a nonprofit while maintaining her coaching practice, Amber shares in this week's episode how she finally stopped trying to do business “the right way” and instead trusted her intuition. She says she's surrendered and allowed things to be what they are, contrasting her current confidence with her early days of trying to copy other successful coaches.For new financial coaches, Amber offers this wisdom: “Really listen to your own intuition and give yourself permission to follow it.” She believes businesses achieve longevity precisely because they embrace change rather than rigidly sticking to predetermined formulas.Listen in to hear how finding your own path, even when it's messy, leads to both personal fulfillment and a thriving practice that genuinely serves others.Links & Resources:Ultimate Growth GuideJoin the Facebook groupAmber's WebsiteKey Takeaways:Embrace your unique combination of skills rather than forcing yourself into a single professional identity.Trust your gut when building your business; the sooner you listen to your intuition instead of following others' formulas, the faster you'll find your authentic path.Connection beats promotion. One-on-one relationships and referrals create more stability than aggressive marketing tactics that don't align with your natural style.Your business model should make you feel good; if juggling multiple roles drains you, it's unsustainable, regardless of what the numbers say.Is your approach working? Ask yourself “How does this feel?” instead of just “Is this profitable?” to build a business that energizes rather than exhausts you.Businesses achieve longevity through embracing change, not by rigidly following initial plans when they no longer serve you.The magic isn't in getting the numbers right—it's translating those numbers into meaningful insights that help clients make better decisions.About Amy Joy PietrangeloAmber Joy Pietrangelo is a financial coach and bookkeeper who lives in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. After joining the Financial Coach Academy® in 2019 while searching for more purpose in her life, Amber has built a unique coaching practice that combines her accounting background with intuitive coaching.

Jesse explores insights from the Retirements and Perspectives study, which captures the experiences and expectations of individuals transitioning into retirement, especially those aged 50 to 75. With half of the participants recently retired and the other half preparing to retire within two years, the study offers a timely look at the "final glide path" into retirement and the early years that follow. Authored by retirement experts Fritz Gilbert and Eric Weigel, the report dives into preparedness, lifestyle satisfaction, and evolving concerns. It reveals a common disconnect between what pre-retirees expect and what retirees actually experience—particularly around health, identity, and social engagement. Jesse discusses how meaning and purpose often decline post-retirement, and how maintaining social connection and physical health is key to thriving. Drawing inspiration from longevity expert Dr. Peter Attia, the episode emphasizes that preparing for retirement goes beyond money—it's about planning for purpose, relationships, and well-being. Jesse also shares three powerful exercises to help listeners create a more intentional retirement vision: the Perfect Day, the Ikigai Map, and the Rocking Chair Test. Key Takeaways:• Retirement is more than a financial event—it's a major life transition requiring emotional, social, and identity planning. • Physical health and vitality are crucial to enjoying retirement, not just surviving it. • Social connection is one of the strongest predictors of well-being in retirement. • The “Perfect Day” exercise helps retirees envision and plan a fulfilling daily life post-career. • The “Ikigai Map” offers a powerful framework to align purpose, passion, and impact in retirement. • The “Rocking Chair Test” encourages long-term reflection on what truly matters at the end of life.
