When you listen to ASMR Sleep Recordings, you can lock your phone, so you won't get any bothersome stimuli from notifications and other sounds from your phone. You can switch between apps while studying or working without pausing the ambient sound.About our sounds:Water creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to running water is an ideal way to turn off all the stressful things life brings, and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds include a river, flowing creek, babbling brook, gentle waves on a lake, and a bamboo fountain. Rain also creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to rain is an ideal way to switch off all the stressful things life brings and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds are rain on an umbrella, hailstorms, hard rain, soft rain, gentle rain, wind and rain, rain on a car.White noise helps babies and children to get a better and deeper night's sleep. This is because external sounds are masked by the noise. With white noise in the background, your child will not hear annoying cars driving by or dogs barking in bed. This allows your little one to sleep better. And it also saves you as a parent a lot of hours!Pink noise is more common in nature than you might expect. It can be compared to continuous rainfall or wind. In addition to white noise, pink noise is also increasing in popularity, especially in business environments. Because it can increase productivity, concentration and creativity.Brown noise can be compared to waves of the sea, a river current, strong winds or the sound of thunder during a storm. Like pink noise, brown noise is very similar to white noise. However, the frequencies have been lowered even further and a lot more concentrated. This gives it a rougher/coarse tone than pink noise. It sounds a bit deeper and a bit bass-like. The benefits of brown noise are the same as the other types of noise. It provides relaxation, increased focus and improved deep sleep.DISCLAIMER: Be aware that loud noises can damage your hearing. If you can't carry on a conversation without raising your voice while playing one of our spheres, the sound may be too loud for your ears. Do not place the speakers directly next to a baby's ears. If you have trouble hearing or ringing in your ears, stop listening to the white noise immediately and see an audiologist or your doctor.

Whether you're dealing with long dry spells, sexual disconnection, or the impacts of pornography, this episode offers real advice for navigating modern relationships with more compassion and clarity. We explore the difference between healthy porn use and problematic patterns, it becomes an issue when it's used to avoid intimacy or sets unrealistic expectations. Emily encourages honest conversations and mutual understanding around porn preferences while addressing mismatched libidos and long dry spells, including one listener who hasn't had sex with his wife in four years. She suggests slow re-entry into intimacy through sensual touch, non-goal-oriented connection, and therapy if needed, emphasizing that curiosity and care open the door to reconnection. The conversation tackles performance anxiety and shame cycles, where anxiety about sex or fear of "failing" often creates a negative loop. Emily reminds listeners that pleasure doesn't need to be performance-based. Focus on feeling, not impressing. We also address women feeling pressured to perform porn-like roles, with Emily advocating for authentic expression over performing and emphasizing mutual consent and emotional check-ins. You're not broken. Whether you're questioning your libido, struggling with porn use, or feeling disconnected from a partner, there are tools to rebuild trust; starting with yourself.

Key Participants Jake Gosselin - Host/Audio Expert Matt Woltjer - Audio Engineer/Consultant Main Topics Covered Current Industry Setup Most professionals using matrix mix from LV1 systems for broadcast Common approach: dedicated matrix send from main front-of-house mix Requires ongoing attention to maintain quality Logic Pro Issues Identified Primary Problem: Time Drift Logic Pro gradually falls behind video stream Can drift up to 2+ seconds behind actual video Creates major sync issues for live streaming Problem appears unique to Logic Pro Design Limitations Logic Pro optimized for studio recording, not live applications Apple's development priorities focus on studio use Pricing model ($200 for 18+ years) indicates different revenue focus Alternative DAW Options Ableton Live & Pro Tools No reported time drift issues Better suited for live applications More reliable for broadcast mixing Waves LV1 System Purpose-built for live mixing Hardware controller integration Superior plugin processing Most expensive but most reliable option System Integration Challenges Hardware Requirements Allen & Heath SQ: Requires Waves interface cards Dante Systems: Need Dante Wave Sound Bridge (~$3,000) LV1 Options: Classic (most expensive, full features) One C Compact (budget option, limited processing) Proton Duo (insufficient for full mix) Critical Decision Factors Budget Considerations LV1 systems: $10,000+ for complete setup Additional hardware costs often overlooked Integration complexity increases total cost Staffing Reality Check Many churches: 1-2 experienced engineers, 2-3 learning operators Common mistake: Experienced on FOH, beginners on broadcast Results in expensive equipment producing poor mixes Fundamental Issues First Acoustic treatment more impactful than equipment upgrades Proper PA tuning essential before broadcast considerations Secondary console improves mix quality only 2-5% Room acoustics can transform entire sound Professional Recommendations When to Choose Matrix Mix: Small to midsize churches Limited experienced staff Budget constraints Desire for consistency and reliability When to Consider LV1: Dedicated broadcast mixing staff Sufficient budget for complete system Acoustics and PA already optimized Need for advanced plugin processing Questions to Ask Before Upgrading: What specific problems are you solving? Do you have dedicated, experienced broadcast staff? Are fundamental acoustic/PA issues addressed? What's your complete system budget? How complex is your current audio routing?

Click here to schedule a call and receive our exclusive Price Increase Guide—trusted by over 200 gym owners to increase revenue without additional costs or losing members.In this episode, Leo and Vince kick things off by recapping Vince's unplugged anniversary vacation to Cancun, which turned into a business lesson on opportunistic upselling, seaweed, and Mexican cab scams. From there, the duo dives deep into four pressing topics for gym owners: how to increase prices without a revolt, how to plan a second location without losing your mind (or your first location), how to evaluate outside opportunities without losing focus, and finally, how to build a powerful retention system. Vince shares real-life stories from clients, practical checklists, and a fair bit of humor and firepower on why charging more and simplifying your business might just be your ticket to massive growth and sanity. 5 Key Points from the EpisodePrice Increases Are a Mindset Game First, a Math Game SecondVince lays out a two-step pricing strategy: calculate worst-case loss (and realize it's rarely catastrophic), and then zoom out to see long-term gains (e.g., $30/month = $120K more per year). Keep it simple—use a flat rate increase across the board to avoid confusion and resentment.Opening a Second Location? Focus on Four BucketsSimplify the chaos by breaking planning into four major categories:Money (how much you need, where it's coming from)Pre-sale Marketing (start day one with clients)Staffing (who's running it?)Facility Setup & Legal (lease, layout, legal ducks in a row)Don't scale until your first location is rock solid.Every Gym Owner Needs a Focus FilterTo avoid shiny object syndrome, answer: What do I want to be the best in the world at?Use that as your "yes/no" filter when evaluating new opportunities. Focus isn't sexy, but it's the real superpower of successful entrepreneurs.Retention Is Defense—and Defense Wins ChampionshipsVince outlines a 5-point checklist to build a rock-solid retention system:A retention coordinator owns itIt's measured (target: under 5% attrition/month)You have the right people on your teamYour product is excellent (aka, "the soup is tasty")You create ongoing client engagementStrong Team > Fancy EquipmentIt's not your wall color or your squat racks that keep people coming—it's your coaches. Mediocre staff drain retention. Hire amazing people, train them well, and build systems that keep them focused. Vince's retention surged after simplifying the team and locking in his star performers.Click here to schedule a call and receive our exclusive Price Increase Guide—trusted by over 200 gym owners to increase revenue without additional costs or losing members.

Content Marketing AI Solutions: CEO Edition with SEO Expert, ⁠⁠⁠Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Welcome to an extensive discussion on AI solutions for content marketing, specifically for CEOs and business owners. We emphasize the importance of leveraging AI and search engine optimization (SEO) to enhance online visibility and brand mentions discussing practical applications of AI tools like Harpa AI for content creation, transcription, and analytics, highlighting how these tools can streamline workflows and improve content discoverability across various platforms. The conversation also touches upon the evolving landscape of podcasting as a powerful tool for establishing authority and generating leads, with personal anecdotes illustrating its effectiveness in attracting brand collaborations. Finally, we underscore the critical role of owned media in earning visibility within AI search algorithms and the necessity for businesses to adapt their content strategies to stay relevant in the digital age.FAQs1. How is AI transforming the landscape of Search Engine Optimization (SEO)?AI is fundamentally changing SEO by simplifying its processes and shifting the focus from simply ranking for keywords to writing for the algorithm. In the past, the goal was to rank high in search results based on keywords. Now, AI-powered search engines prioritize "brand mentions" and contextual relevance.2. What is "writing for the algorithm" in the age of AI, and why is it crucial for businesses?"Writing for the algorithm" means creating content specifically optimized for how AI systems process and interpret information. This involves writing in speech-friendly formats, using text, video, and image content, and ensuring it's highly contextual to your brand, experience, and engagement. It's no longer just about keyword density; it's about providing a clear, impactful message that resonates with AI's understanding of relevance and authority.3. What practical steps can a business owner take to leverage AI for content marketing and improve their online visibility?To effectively leverage AI for content marketing, business owners should:Conduct a Search Console Audit: Use tools like searchconsoleaudit.com to understand how algorithms perceive your website.Create Brand-Relevant Content: Write content that aligns with what people expect your brand to discuss, offering solutions through your products and services.Utilize AI Tools for Content Creation and Optimization: Employ AI tools like DeepSeek, ChatGPT, or Harpa AI for tasks like transcribing videos with timestamps, rewriting content for specific platforms (e.g., Facebook posts with hashtags), and generating ideas.Focus on Owned Media: Prioritize creating evergreen content on platforms you own (podcasts, blogs, website) as this highly valuable "owned media" will be recognized as "earned media" by AI search engines, leading to brand mentions and credibility.Analyze Performance with Advanced Analytics: Beyond Google Analytics, explore tools like Fathom Analytics to gain deeper insights into user behavior, geographic data, and the effectiveness of your content, which helps in delivering precisely what the audience seeks.Digital Marketing Resources:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SEO Optimization Blogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book Complimentary SEO Discovery Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Brands We Love and Support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Loving Me Beauty | Buy Vegan-based Luxury Products⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Unlock your future in real estate—get certified in Ghana today!⁠

Bodhi shares his journey from corporate America to building a dumpster rental empire, highlighting the importance of smart marketing, hiring the right team, and understanding your numbers. He emphasizes that marketing isn't just about leads — it's about creating long-term value, building relationships, and executing a sales game that wins in competitive markets. Bodhi's no-nonsense approach is all about playing offense, staying consistent, and leveraging every opportunity to grow sustainably and profitably.Key Highlights: - Buying vs. Starting From Scratch: Bodhi shares why he prefers buying established businesses and how to find companies with recurring revenue and untapped potential, instead of starting from zero.- Delegation & Simple Models: Why dumpster businesses are easier to delegate, scale, and manage, especially compared to more complex trades like HVAC or roofing. Bodhi emphasizes mastering operations and keeping core functions straightforward.- Marketing as a Long-Term Play: The truth about brand building and lead generation — it's not a short-term game. Bodhi points out that smart branding campaigns (like memorable billboards) generate ongoing ROI and authentic referrals.- The Power of Word-of-Mouth & Ripple Effects: Why initial marketing spend might seem high, but the long-term returns from satisfied customers and referrals are the real winners.- Know Your Numbers & Be Offense: Bodhi stresses the importance of tracking every lead, understanding your profitability, and staying aggressive — especially during off-peak seasons.- Marketing Transparency & Client Communication: How building trust with clear communication, regular updates, and honest expectations differentiate great marketing firms from the fake ones.- Building a Profitable B2B Reed: Bodhi highlights the advantages of being a dependable contractor in B2B spaces, freeing you from constant lead chasing and creating stable, long-term relationships.Final Tips:If you're serious about growth, buy businesses with existing customers and recurring revenue — don't just start from scratch. Focus on mastery of marketing and sales, don't be afraid to invest in branding for the long haul, and always play offense. Stay consistent, track your metrics, and leverage every marketing dollar for maximum ROI. Remember, building a business is about smart delegation, long-term relationship building, and relentless focus on what moves the needle.If you enjoyed this episode, share it with a friend and keep building your empire!

Here are 6 tips:Recognize the thoughts and feelings as separate from facts. When you catch yourself thinking "I don't belong here" or "I'm going to be found out," pause and remind yourself that these are anxious thoughts, not objective truths. Just because you feel like a fraud doesn't mean you actually are one.Keep a record of your accomplishments. Write down positive feedback, successful projects, and skills you've developed. When imposter syndrome hits, review this evidence of your competence. It's hard to argue with concrete examples of your contributions and growth.Reframe "failure" as learning. Imposters fear being exposed through mistakes, but everyone makes them. Instead of seeing errors as proof you don't belong, view them as normal parts of growth. The most successful people fail regularly—they just learn from it and keep going.Talk to others about it. You'll often discover that people you admire have felt exactly the same way. Sharing these feelings reduces their power and helps you realize how common they are, especially among high achievers who set demanding standards for themselves.Focus on contribution over perfection. Instead of trying to prove you deserve to be somewhere, concentrate on how you can help or add value. When you're genuinely focused on contributing to your team or field, there's less mental energy available for self-doubt and comparison.Reframe your internal dialogue. Instead of "I don't know what I'm doing," try "I'm learning as I go." Replace "I got lucky" with "I was prepared when opportunity came." This shift from fixed self-criticism to growth-oriented thinking can reduce the power of imposter thoughts. Some resources for you:Project more confidence and credibility with my free tips: 9 Words to Avoid & What to Say Instead: https://karenlaos.com/words-to-avoid/My book “Trust Your Own Voice”: https://karenlaos.com/book/Episodes also available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEwQoTGdJX5eME0ccBKiKng/videos Karen Laos, Communication Expert and Confidence Cultivator, leverages 25 years in the boardroom and speaking on the world's most coveted stages such as Google and NASA to transform missed opportunities into wins.

This will help you de-stress, unwind, and rest. Enjoy two hours of relaxing sounds to help you relax, focus, study and fall asleep.About ASMR Sleep Recordings:The purpose of ASMR Sleep Recording is to help you sleep and concentrate better. This particular episode lasts two hours and has no ads in the middle, so you won't be woken up or disturbed while focusing or relaxing. When you listen to ASMR Sleep Recordings, you can lock your phone, so you won't get any bothersome stimuli from notifications and other sounds from your phone. You can switch between apps while studying or working without pausing the ambient sound.About our sounds:Water creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to running water is an ideal way to turn off all the stressful things life brings, and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds include a river, flowing creek, babbling brook, gentle waves on a lake, and a bamboo fountain. Rain also creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to rain is an ideal way to switch off all the stressful things life brings and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds are rain on an umbrella, hailstorms, hard rain, soft rain, gentle rain, wind and rain, rain on a car.White noise helps babies and children to get a better and deeper night's sleep. This is because external sounds are masked by the noise. With white noise in the background, your child will not hear annoying cars driving by or dogs barking in bed. This allows your little one to sleep better. And it also saves you as a parent a lot of hours!Pink noise is more common in nature than you might expect. It can be compared to continuous rainfall or wind. In addition to white noise, pink noise is also increasing in popularity, especially in business environments. Because it can increase productivity, concentration and creativity.Brown noise can be compared to waves of the sea, a river current, strong winds or the sound of thunder during a storm. Like pink noise, brown noise is very similar to white noise. However, the frequencies have been lowered even further and a lot more concentrated. This gives it a rougher/coarse tone than pink noise. It sounds a bit deeper and a bit bass-like. The benefits of brown noise are the same as the other types of noise. It provides relaxation, increased focus and improved deep sleep.DISCLAIMER: Be aware that loud noises can damage your hearing. If you can't carry on a conversation without raising your voice while playing one of our spheres, the sound may be too loud for your ears. Do not place the speakers directly next to a baby's ears. If you have trouble hearing or ringing in your ears, stop listening to the white noise immediately and see an audiologist or your doctor.

Instead, your college-aged daughter asks, "Dad, can I put the green gas in my Jeep?"That moment changed everything for entrepreneur and father of four Rob Finlay. What started as relief quickly became a sobering realization: Had he been so focused on building businesses that he'd forgotten to build life skills in his children?In this episode, Rob shares the wake-up call that led him to write a book and interview over 30 experts—from Navy SEALs to NASCAR drivers—to discover what young adults really need to thrive in the real world.Key Topics Discussed:The "Magic Carpet Ride" Reality: How our education system creates dependency, then abruptly demands independenceThe Social Isolation Crisis: Why young adults struggle with networking and real-world communicationEssential Life Skills: From financial literacy to calling 911 under pressureThe Good Human Foundation: Why character matters more than achievementCoaching vs. Helicoptering: Transitioning from protector to empowererMain Takeaways:✅ Include your kids in social situations - Let them see you interact professionally and personally ✅ Don't top up their shortfalls - Create opportunities for them to earn and problem-solve ✅ Focus on building good humans first - Character trumps credentials every time ✅ You can't give what you don't have - Model the life you want them to livePower Quote:"The whole goal for any parent is to produce a young person who's a good human. That to me is the most important. You've already won if you've got that." - Rob FinlayThis conversation will challenge you to examine: Are you preparing your children for the magic carpet ride to end, or are you extending it? The difference could determine whether your kids thrive or struggle when they step into independence.

In this episode of Bootstrap MD, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming, shares a game-changing mindset shift for healthcare professionals tired of unpredictable revenue and burnout. Drawing from his experience building seven-figure businesses, Dr. Woo-Ming explains why focusing on systems, not goals, is the key to sustainable success. He breaks down why goal-only thinking creates feast-or-famine cycles, feelings of failure, and vulnerability to real-world variables like staff turnover or market shifts. Through practical examples—like patient acquisition, content marketing, hiring, and investment systems—Dr. Woo-Ming offers a four-step framework to systemize your practice or side hustle. This episode is packed with actionable strategies to help physicians take control of their income, time, and freedom by building reliable, repeatable processes. Three Actionable Takeaways: Define Specific, Measurable Outcomes – Set clear but flexible goals (e.g., "10 paying coaching clients in 60 days") to guide your system-building without micromanaging every detail. Focus on Repeatable Inputs – Identify and schedule consistent weekly tasks (e.g., outreach to 5 leads, creating 1 video) that drive your outcomes, ensuring control over what you can predictably execute. Track Inputs, Not Just Results – Monitor weekly system tasks (e.g., discovery calls booked, content published) using simple tools like Google Docs or Loom to ensure consistency and improve outcomes over time.

In this episode of the How to Lead - 2025 Edition series, Julia speaks with Dr. Fiona Kerr, a neuroscientist, engineer, and systems thinker, about how to lead a strategy day in a way that truly taps into the collective intelligence of the room. Fiona begins with neuroscience: why proximity makes us smarter, how brains sync when people interact face-to-face, and what that means for the quality of thinking in a strategy session. She then explores how to design and steer, not control a conversation. From setting boundaries and naming non-negotiables, to using intuition, spotting weak signals, and asking the right questions, her approach is built around high trust, curiosity, and deep listening. She also unpacks the role of leaders as both participants in the system and observers of it, holding a bifocal view that allows for creativity and rigour at once. Listen to this episode to learn how to lead strategy sessions that go beyond sticky notes and PowerPoints and instead unlock clarity, ownership, and systems-level thinking.

When Eileen's husband came home from the hospital after a traumatic brain injury, he wasn't the same. He couldn't do many of the household chores he used to take care of, like raking up the leaves in their yard. So one day, Eileen decided to try to get the chore done. As she picked up the leaves in her yard, crying, she felt a tap on her shoulder.Do you have your own story of an unsung hero? We'd love to hear it!

Today I'm joined by DFCN counselor Melissa, as we take an on-air call from Adrienne from Florida who asks: How should I navigate a relationship with my mom who doesn't invest/participate in a relationship with me and my sisters and hasn't in a long time. The only time she reaches out is when she needs something. She's not emotionally available with us and if we didn't reach out, we probably wouldn't hear from her at all. I've distanced myself from people who don't meet me halfway. But can I do that with my mom?  What do you do when the very person that isn't showing up in a relationship is your own mother? Does setting boundaries mean cutting her out of your life, or is there a better way? We dig deep in this on-air session and help Adrienne understand how to move forward in a complicated relationship with her mother. Don't miss this conversation!

Sonia C. planted an apple orchard but forgot to hire the harvesters – life is busy! She's in a torrential downpour of creativity and is moving from one thing to the next as best she can. Fifi (Sonia's C.s' ego) is definitely barking right now, while Pete (Sonia T.'s ego) is going crazy trying to make the best of a temporary home. Overall, intuition, not technology, is the powerful motivator that is driving these ladies forward.    This week's theme is: Don't allow technology to take over your intuition.    Join Sonia T's Retreat: Breathe + Bloom Retreat September 26th -28th   Highlights: When it rains, it pours, and Sonia C. is living in a hurricane right now! [1:01]  If life is getting crazy, take time for YOU. [3:56]  Craving change? Focus on what you can control. [5:25] Do you know when enough is enough? [9:07]  Stop and be present. It's summer! [14:14]  Take time to live in your right brain. [22:00] Don't lose touch with your intuition. [26:27] What does it mean to be psychic today? [30:30] Be careful – the ego is constantly comparing. [36:15]  You can recruit others to a higher vibe. [40:57]  Tool of the Week: Be brave, be different and speak up! [44:56]    When life gets crazy, your inner dog might be barking her head off! It's easy to get swept up in the chaos of everyday life, but don't forget to take time to ground yourself and listen to what your inner ego needs. Sonia T. has been craving change, but she knows that it's not time to move just yet. But that doesn't mean that she can't spruce up her personal space. The trick to contentment and flow is staying present in each moment along the way. If you need some help, just notice the season that you're in – if it's summer, stop and enjoy the summer vibe!    And don't forget to unplug! Technology and AI make it far too easy to get stuck in the left brain. When all the answers are right at our fingertips, we don't have a chance to ponder and explore and wonder and feel our intuition's guidance. If you notice that the vibes are off with the people around you, don't be afraid to speak up. You can take control and recruit others to a higher vibe.   Tool of the Week: Be brave, be different and speak up!

I am joined by returning guest John Feffer, director of Foreign Policy in Focus and author, to discuss the dramatic shifts and fissures in the global "rules-based order." Since our last interview in March 2020, successive crises have challenged the underlying basis of international law and the coherence of the global economic system. Taking our previous interview into account—an examination of the first months of the Covid-19 pandemic, situating it historically—I asked John to help us make sense of the first six months of the second Trump administration. // Episode notes: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/john-feffer-3 // Sustain + support: https://www.patreon.com/lastborninthewilderness // Donate: https://www.paypal.me/lastbornpodcast

Send us a textAre you measuring your success all wrong? If you're feeling discouraged because your rank dropped, your team isn't growing fast enough, or your latest launch flopped, this episode is your wake-up call. Rachel shares a powerful lesson from a high-level mastermind that completely shifted how she defines success—and it's going to change everything for you too. Stop giving away your power to metrics that don't matter and start celebrating the wins that actually build wealth and freedom.Key Takeaways• Your success metrics are probably sabotaging you - Stop measuring success by rank, team size, or social media engagement. These surface-level metrics miss the real story of your growth and can leave you burnt out and frustrated.• Consistency beats perfection every time - Rachel celebrates her 330+ podcast episodes as proof that showing up consistently (even imperfectly) creates compound success over time.• One person showing up IS success - Shift from "only one person came to my live" to "YES! One person showed up!" This mindset change transforms your entire business energy.• Don't chase goals that aren't even yours - Are you measuring success based on your upline's team goals or comparing yourself to your old achievements? Stop chasing metrics that don't align with your current reality.• Building something of your own requires different metrics - If you're creating digital products or building alongside your network marketing business, celebrate the fact that you CREATED and LAUNCHED—regardless of initial sales numbers.• Focus on momentum, ownership, clarity, and consistency - These four pillars create real income and freedom, unlike vanity metrics that fluctuate based on factors outside your control.Ready to Start Measuring What Matters?It's time to ditch the scorecard that's keeping you stuck and start tracking metrics that actually move the needle.
