May has always felt sacred to me. It's the bridge between everything I've poured into this school year and the dream that's still unfolding for the next. And if you're listening today feeling like you're doubting, dreaming, or barely holding on… I see you. I've been you. And this episode is for you. When I started my microschool, I didn't have a blueprint—just a calling, a lot of questions, and a deep desire to give students something different. There were moments I didn't think anyone would show up. Moments I wanted to quit. And moments I realized the smallest signs of progress were actually the biggest affirmations. This episode isn't just about my journey—it's about yours. If you're in the early stages of starting a microschool or homeschool hybrid, thinking about leaving the classroom, or just trying to breathe through the overwhelm of leading something meaningful… this message is for you. Inside this episode, I share: Why your first steps—however messy—are the most sacred What to do when fear, comparison, or uncertainty shows up The power of God's faithfulness when your own strength feels like it's running out Practical encouragement if you're just getting started or feeling stuck How to recognize small wins and let them build your belief You'll walk away with: Permission to slow down and reflect A simple action—write a letter to your past or future self Ideas to start your “faith and favor” folder (something that changed my mindset) And most importantly… a reminder that you are not behind. You are building something beautiful. If you're ready to walk this journey with others who truly understand what you're building, I'd love to invite you to join me inside MicroSchool Masterminds. It's the community I wish I had when I started—and it's full of support, strategy, and strong women just like you.

The length of time we spend working a project often depends on the strength of our projecting game – particularly what we do on those important working attempts. Many of us either keep working things when we should have sent weeks ago, or we cut off the working goes and start redpoint attempts way too early. The best climbers put themselves into send position with fewer working attempts, and know when they are ready to get it done.  So the question is: How can we make better use of our working goes and send hard things faster? _________________________

Joanna Yeo, founder and CEO of Arukah and former institutional investor, speaks with Jeremy Au to explore how Southeast Asia's agri-waste can be transformed into a global carbon credit engine. They unpack how her education at Harvard, Cambridge, and Stanford shaped a mission to connect vulnerable communities to opportunity, and how she learned from finance, blockchain, and rapid tech scaling to build a climate startup grounded in data, incentives, and farmer equity. Joanna shares why embedded finance failed to scale in agri, how she discovered the commercial viability of biochar and biogas, and why her company commits 50 percent of carbon revenue to participating farmers. The conversation highlights how Southeast Asia's agriculture base, low-cost advantage, and digital infrastructure can lead the world in transparent, high-trust climate solutions if builders focus on real data, real problems, and real upside sharing. 05:05 The Impact of Education on Joanna's Career: Gratitude and exposure to global inequality led her to a clear goal to connect vulnerable people to markets at scale. 10:46 First Steps in Finance: Private Equity and Morgan Stanley: She learned how capital shapes the world, how sustainability can be measurable, and how investment logic is structured. 20:38 Reflecting on a Rapid Growth Journey: Joining a unicorn gave her a close look at how top tech firms manage speed, tracking, and execution discipline. 22:28 Addressing Poverty in Southeast Asia: Joanna links her mission back to the post-pandemic data showing up to 100 million people falling below $2/day. 23:16 Founding a Climate Tech and Agritech Startup: She founded Arukah to bring embedded financing and carbon monetization to underserved farming communities. 28:50 Building Sustainable Business Models: After embedded finance proved unreliable, she pivoted toward waste conversion with high verification standards. 36:49 Commitment to Farmers and Long-Term Vision: Bravery means holding the line on fairness Arukah gives farmers 50% of carbon revenue and builds with long-term trust.

Film Overview Fantastic Four: First Steps updates the origin of Marvel's first family, combining retro-futuristic visuals with a modern take on cosmic threats and familial dynamics—all under the visionary direction of Matt Shakman. Fantastic Four in Media Here's the list of Fantastic Four titles in order by year: Fantastic Four #1 – Comic Book (1961) Fantastic Four (Hanna-Barbera) – Animated Television Series (1967) Fantastic Four (70s Unproduced Cinema Feature) – Unproduced TV Pilot (~1978) Fantastic Four (Jessica Alba Film) – Live-Action Film (2005) Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer – Live-Action Film (2007) Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes – Animated Television Series (2006) Fantastic Four (Reboot) – Live-Action Film (2015) Origin & Enduring Appeal Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, the Fantastic Four first shocked readers with a unique origin—a crew gaining powers via cosmic rays during an unauthorized space flight. Their genuine human flaws, family bonds, and scientific wonder have kept fans intrigued for decades. Why Studios Are Committed Studios see unmatched narrative depth in the Fantastic Four. Their blend of family drama with larger-than-life challenges makes their story a rich canvas, one that promises both nostalgic appeal and fresh, character-driven action on the big screen. Our Prediction With Marvel's renewed focus and Shakman at the helm, First Steps is set to balance respect for lore with innovative storytelling. Expect a film that honors the past while boldly reimagining the team for today's audience.

"I had no sexual energy. I couldn't feel anything. That's when I knew—we were siphoned."In this final and explosive interview of the Bewitched series, Baljit Rayat steps forward with a harrowing story that spans nearly two decades. As the first student to ever learn the Akashic Records from Betty, Baljit didn't just witness the rise of a spiritual leader—she lived through the full descent into chaos, control, and cult-like manipulation.What began in 2006 as a path of spiritual awakening and mentorship slowly evolved into a twisted entanglement of gaslighting, psychosis, and psychic entrapment. Baljit recounts the signs she missed, the energy shifts she ignored, and the moments when her body began showing symptoms—weight gain, lost libido, mental fog—of being psychically infiltrated. But nothing prepared her for the Santa Fe retreat, where psychodrama erupted, euphoria blurred into confusion, and something darker came through under the guise of sacred ritual.From being telepathically pressured to rejoin programs, Baljit unveils how Betty's tactics became coercive, paranoid, and surreal. She opens up about the soul-crushing aftermath, the moment she finally blocked Betty, and the freedom that followed.This episode is about reclaiming your energy, breaking the spell, and waking up to the truth.TODAY'S HIGHLIGHTS(00:00) Intro(00:52) In Today's Episode...Baljit Rayat and the Final Chapter(02:11) Upcoming Episode: 11 Patterns of Manipulation and Personality Profiling(03:32) The Metamorphosis(05:02) Welcoming Baljit's Unique Perspective(07:10) Baljit's First Steps with Betty and Initial Red Flags(12:28) The Shift and The Pandemic Impact(17:51) Spiritual Psychosis and The Santa Fe Retreat(24:10) The Blue Lotus Tea and Mind Games(31:14) The Santa Fe Aftermath - Bye Betty, You're Hijacked(36:59) Croatia and The Male Entity(46:49) Cult-Like Behavior(52:57) Unveiling Hidden Transformations, Psychic Attacks, and Targeting(55:26) The Shift in Energy - Who's Above Betty?(58:06) Trauma Bonding, Infiltration, and Revelations(01:05:21) Psychological and Energetic Insights(01:07:47) The San Diego Trauma Reveal(01:16:28) Galactic Interference - The Portal is Open(01:23:49) Who Made You, Betty?(01:27:30) Betty's Training System Exposed(01:39:11) Where Do We Go From Here?**WAYS TO ENTER MY WORLD**  When you leave a review of the podcast, send us a screenshot and we'll send you a $250 credit, you can apply to anything else in my world.  The Metamorphosis starts its next round in just a few days.

GET YOUR MULTIVERSE NEWS MERCH HERE:https://multiverse-news-shop.fourthwall.com/Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesMarvel Studios is returning to its roots and the source of its inspiration – the comics! For the first time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's history, the studio and the comic publishing arm of the company are collaborating to create a tie-in comic for The Fantastic Four: First Steps. While there have been official tie-in comics to the films before, it was a case of the comics working within the confines of what was already planned and established for the films, not a true collaboration from the ground up. To that end, Marvel has pulled out all the stops by bringing talent the likes of writer Matt Fraction, who was allowed to visit the films set along with other creators working on the comic. The comic, a one-shot that releases July 2, ahead of the film's July 25 release, is said to be designed to act as media that exists within the film's continuity.20th Century Studios released the teaser trailer for Predator: Badlands, the highly anticipated sequel to Dan Trachtenberg's Prey. The trailer, while brief at just over a minute, is jampacked with footage that includes vistas, locales, creatures and technology never seen within the franchise, including two mysterious characters: one being what seems to a Predator protagonist and Elle Fanning in an enigmatic, humanoid role who begs more questions than answers.A couple weeks ago we discussed the casting of several key figures in HBO's upcoming Harry Potter series, including John Lithgow as Hogwarts Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore. Now, while speaking the London Times last week, the actor revealed that he was not prepared for the resulting public outcries and backlash in response to his participation - given series creator J.K. Rowling's involvement; as Rowling's public transphobic stance and comments in recent years have been the subject of controversy. Elsewhere, David Tennant, who played Barty Crouch in the films, offered his appropriately timed insights on the author while receiving an allyship award at the British LGBT Awards, saying, “We shouldn't live in a world where that is worth remarking on — I don't wish ill of her, I just wish her to shut up.” The lines between the worlds of make believe and our real one are often blurry and the decision to separate art from a problematic artist is a complicated and personal one. The review embargo has lifted on Thunderbolts* and from 107 total reviews, the film currently has a certified fresh rating of 88% on Rotten Tomatoes.The upcoming prequel Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping has cast Joseph Zada as Haymitch Abernathy and Whitney Peak as his girlfriend, Lenore Dove Baird. Mckenna Grace will play District 12 tribute Maysilee Donner, Jesse Plemons will portray a young Plutarch Heavensbee, and the film is set for release on November 20, 2026.Netflix has released the first teaser trailer for the upcoming Jenna Ortega-led series Wednesday. The series will follow a split release schedule with part 1 dropping on August 6, and part 2 to follow on September 3.Sydney Sweeney is set to star in a film adaptation of hit video game “Split Fiction” with Jon M. Chu directing, Variety has learned. The script for the movie is being written by “Deadpool & Wolverine” screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.Emma Mackey has been cast as the White Witch in Narnia, Greta Gerwig's adaptation of C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia fantasy novels.Over the weekend, “Minecraft” collected $37.8 million overseas and $60.5 million worldwide in its fourth weekend of release. Meanwhile, “Sinners” added $13.5 million internationally and $58.5 million globally in its second week. For the second consecutive weekend, Warner has nabbed the No. 1 and 2 spots on international, domestic and global box office charts.

Hey Rainmakers! It's Chelsey and Stephen here—and if you've ever dreamed about launching a product that changes lives and makes a global impact, you're going to love this episode. We sat down with Cherie Hoeger, founder of Saalt, a game-changing period care company that's shaking up the industry with sustainable, empowering products—and purpose at the core. Cherie shares how a simple conversation with a family member in Venezuela opened her eyes to the global crisis of period poverty—and inspired her to take action. Her passion led her to launch Saalt, a B Corp that's now found in Target, Walgreens, Amazon, and soon Walmart. With a mission to make high-quality, sustainable period care available to everyone, Saalt has donated over 130,000 products in more than 50 countries. Talk about legacy! In this episode, we go behind the scenes on what it really takes to bring a purpose-driven product to life—how Cherie went from technical writing to launching FDA-regulated products, and why “starting from stupid” actually worked in her favor. From her trial-and-error journey to building US-based manufacturing relationships to developing industry-first technology in their period underwear, her story is full of grit, grace, and incredible innovation. You'll also hear how customer education played a huge role in growing the brand, why they offer real-time support with “cup coaches,” and how Cherie and her husband built a pro-family workplace—complete with an in-office preschool. Moms, if you've ever felt pulled between purpose and family, this one's for you. This episode is proof that you can do it differently, create a brand that reflects your values, and serve your family and the world at the same time.  Links for this episode: Check Out Saalt & Get 10% Off: Saalt | Reusable Period Care | Period Care Simplified - https://www.saalt.com/rainmaker  Connect with us: ► Rainmaker Instagram: @therainmakerfamily ► Chelsey Instagram: @chels_diaz ► Stephen Instagram: @steezdiaz ► TikTok: @therainmakerfamily ► Facebook: @diazfamilylegacy ► Website: therainmakerfamily.com   Join Our Next Rainmaker Challenge - How To Make Passive Income From Home: https://therainmakerchallenge.com Save On Our Favorite Things: https://rainmakerfamily.com/deals Watch The Million Dollar Mama Case Study: https://www.makeitrainmomma.com/casestudy   Episode Minute by Minute:  0:00 - Meet Cherie Hoeger, Founder of Saalt 1:30 - The Conversation That Sparked a Global Mission 3:00 - What Is Period Poverty (and How Saalt Is Solving It) 5:00 - Cherie's First Steps in E-commerce 7:00 - Building with Passion (Not Just Profits) 10:00 - Becoming a Certified B Corp 12:00 - Educating the Market Without Shame 16:00 - Manufacturing in the U.S. and Innovation Hurdles 20:00 - Launching a Second Product: What Worked (and What Didn't) 24:00 - Why Customer Empathy Leads to Better Products 27:00 - Delight Budget + Real Human Support 29:00 - Work-Life Integration and Disrupting the 9-to-5 32:00 - The “Vital 5” and Structuring Your Life with Purpose 33:00 - Where to Find Saalt Products

In this inspiring episode, I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Cindi Wachholz, a 62-year-old paramedic and runner who proves that it's never too late to chase big goals. Cindi didn't start running until she was 59, and her story is such a powerful reminder that age is just a number.She shared how she started with simple walk-run sessions, built consistency over time, and gradually worked her way up to finishing a half marathon—and eventually, a full marathon! Along the way, Cindi discovered the importance of proper training, good nutrition, and regular strength work.One of the things that really stood out to me was how Cindi learned to trust the process, set realistic goals, and believe in herself—even when society's expectations about age and fitness said otherwise. Her journey has transformed not just her physical health but her overall confidence and outlook on life.If you've ever doubted whether you're "too old" or "too out of shape" to start something new, Cindi's story will absolutely encourage you to take that first step. No matter where you're starting from, amazing things can happen when you stay consistent and believe in the journey!00:53 Cindi's Running Journey Begins01:22 Overcoming Age Stereotypes01:54 Becoming a Paramedic03:55 First Steps into Running05:18 First 5K Experience06:48 Joining Real Life Runners11:02 Learning About Proper Training17:12 Overcoming Self-Doubt in Running17:49 Inspiring Others on the Trail18:45 Running Accomplishments and Milestones30:09 The Importance of Strength Training32:59 Encouraging Healthy Aging Thanks for Listening!!Be sure to hit FOLLOW on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your favorite podcast player Leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
