1. The State of the Iran Conflict The U.S. is in week two of a war with Iran, claiming major military success Iran’s missile and drone capabilities have been nearly eliminated. Iran’s navy has been almost entirely destroyed. The U.S. is using overwhelming force, rapid strikes, and no gradual escalation. 2. U.S. Objectives (as framed in the discussion) The stated goals of “Operation Epic Fury”: Destroy Iran's missile stockpiles, launchers, and weapons manufacturing. Destroy Iran’s navy. Permanently prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. 3. Justification for War Iran has been at war with the U.S. for 47 years, funding terrorism (Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis). Iran attempted to assassinate former President Trump and other U.S. officials (Bolton, O’Brien, etc.). This war is described as “America-first,” not about Israel, and responds to direct threats against Americans. 4. Political Framing & Criticism of Opponents Democrats are: Confused in their messaging. Trying to politicize gas prices. Accusing Trump of being manipulated by Israel. Media personalities (notably Tucker Carlson) are heavily criticized for: Alleged pro‑Islamist, anti‑Israel, anti‑American rhetoric. Being amplified by foreign adversaries (Iran, Russia, Muslim Brotherhood). 5. Foreign Influence Qatar is: Funding U.S. universities with $6.6 billion. Supporting Hamas. Influencing American academic and political spheres. 6. Economic Effects Gas prices have risen during the conflict. The increase is temporary. Prices are still much lower than under Biden. If Iran’s regime collapses, oil prices may drop significantly. 7. Vision of the Endgame The conflict will be short, decisive, and not like Iraq or Afghanistan. Expectations: No long-term occupation. No large-scale troop deployment. Focused destruction of hostile infrastructure. Confidence that the Iranian regime might collapse, leading to a more stable region without prolonged war.

In this episode of The Edge of Risk Podcast by IRMI, Joel Appelbaum speaks with Dustin Carlson, president of the 831(b) Institute, about maintaining the credibility and long-term viability of Section 831(b) micro-captives. The discussion centers on Mr. Carlson's three-part series in Captive Insurance Company Reports outlining proposed reforms aimed at addressing practices that have drawn regulatory scrutiny while preserving legitimate captive insurance programs. Mr. Carlson explains how the Section 831(b) election allows small insurance companies to exclude underwriting income up to the statutory premium threshold while remaining taxable on investment gains. He outlines concerns around structures used for estate planning, investments such as life insurance or annuities inside captives, and related-party lending practices. The conversation explores practical policy proposals designed to curb abuses while reinforcing insurance fundamentals—such as proper underwriting, claims processes, and governance practices—to ensure micro-captives remain focused on risk management rather than investment or wealth transfer strategies.

Episode Summary In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive into high-performance strategies for business coaches—drawing lessons from Olympic athletes, the psychology of winning, the keys to building (and keeping) momentum, and the art of leveraging staff, referrals, and advertising for exponential business growth. Packed with practical frameworks, real-life stories, and Karl's signature analogies (from roller hockey to dolphins), the episode reveals why elite coaches and businesses succeed—and how listeners can replicate their approach for long-term results. Key Topics Covered The Psychology of Olympic-Level Success Karl Bryan unpacks how the athlete's journey mirrors that of the ambitious business owner or coach—both must manage mindset at the beginning, middle, and end of their journeys. Lessons are drawn from Olympic stories, including Lindsey Vonn's career, transitions, and the psychological challenge of what happens "after the medal." Momentum: How to Build It and Never Lose It Elite performers hit the gas pedal after success, not before. Signing a client? Double down and sign another instead of celebrating too long. Karl shares why consistency outpaces one-time effort, and actionable habits for coaches to lock success rhythms in. Staffing and Leverage for Big Results Big goals require teams—not solo grinds. Karl explains the value of hiring "first-round draft picks" and why one A-player can outperform five mediocre hires. Firmness, not harshness: How to foster high standards and resolve staff conflict with presence, empathy, and accountability. The Power of "Selling Through, Not To" (Joint Ventures) Deep dive into referral and JV strategies: Why working with partners like accountants, business brokers, and promotional companies can 10x (or 50x) your business. Step-by-step: How to structure win-win "test drive" arrangements to gain referrals and scale with minimal cold outreach. Advertising: Shortcut to Growth or Costly Trap? Karl distinguishes between rushed, ineffective "hope" ads and smart, operating-system-led campaigns. Why many business owners should fix their system first, then advertise, and how to teach clients this discipline. Consistency and Demonstrating What You Want to Attract Building disciplined, consistent habits (like daily emails, weekly events) attracts committed, disciplined clients and JV partners over time. Notable Quotes "The elite hit the gas pedal after success. The non-elite celebrate too long." "You have to fall in love with the process, not the destination… If you hit the goal, and you don't have another, you fall backwards." "Don't do your best. Do what it takes." "Your biggest accomplishments will come through other people." "Advertising to profit is a superpower… but it's not a shortcut. You need an operating system first." "Hire slow, fire fast… The one who gets the best player wins the trade." "Demonstrate it, then you'll attract it—discipline is magnetic." Actionable Takeaways Always Set the Next Target: After you land a win—a new client, a successful event, or a JV, don't pause to celebrate. Immediately schedule and line up the next one to keep momentum compounding. Book Events in Batches: If live events work for you, don't book one—book ten at a time. This creates ongoing pressure and forward motion. Hire for Excellence: Treat each team addition as a draft pick. One top performer can be worth a handful of mediocre staff. Cultivate excellence and resolve conflict with empathy, not harshness. Initiate JV 'Test Drives': Approach JV partners (accountants, brokers, ad reps) by solving their biggest pain points—run a no-risk "test drive" for 3 clients and let your results sell you. Don't Rush Advertising: Before running ads, ensure the "operating system" of your business (or client's business) is air-tight—cost control, clarity of offer, and ability to handle leads. Leverage Proximity Marketing: Use lawn signs, "Good Neighbor Programs," and hyper-local advertising for service businesses—it's often the cheapest, most effective form of ad spend. Serve and Demonstrate Consistently: Showing up every week, delivering value, and embodying discipline/consistency will magnetize your ideal business partners and clients. Resources Mentioned Profit Acceleration Software 2.0 (by Karl Bryan)—business coaching's premier toolkit to help maximize client results and command high fees. Focused.com—Daily emails, coaching frameworks, and software demos for business coaches. The Six-Figure Coach Magazine—Karl's free magazine for business coaches. Networking/JV Sources: Target accountants, business brokers, advertising sales reps, and promotional companies for high-value partnerships. Good Neighbor Program: Local marketing system for service pros.

AI enthusiasm is “out the window” and now it's the geopolitics trade, argues Peter Andersen. He discusses market psychology around the conflicts around the world and how history may be repeating itself. He notes that he's a bear on AI capex and is glad the market is starting to question the narrative. Studying the “science behind artificial intelligence” creates a more measured outlook, he believes. Peter covers the outlook for European defense stocks.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

There's a phrase I come back to constantly: The work isn't hard — it just takes time. And internalizing that truth changes everything.In this episode, I break down what that slogan really means — not as a motivational quote, but as a practical framework for creative work, career growth, fitness, relationships… anything that requires consistency.So often we interpret slow progress as a sign that we're doing something wrong. That we're not talented enough. Disciplined enough. Focused enough.But what if the work isn't actually hard?What if it just takes more time than we emotionally want it to? Knowing this does two powerful things: 1) It gives you grace when progress feels slow. 2) It forces you to prioritize your time toward what truly matters. Because if results are largely a function of time invested, then the real question becomes:Where are you choosing to invest your time?If you've been frustrated with your pace — creatively, professionally, physically — this one's for you.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp and other state leaders have touted the Peach State as one of the best places to do business. However, some lawmakers and advocacy groups say in order for that to be fully true, Georgia must do right by its workforce. As Georgia lawmakers are convening at the state capitol for the 2026 legislative session, State Representative Dewey McClain of Lawrenceville and Ogechi Oparah, the organizing manager representing 9to5 Georgia, are among those prioritizing several labor-related proposed bills: HB1318, HB394, HB395 and HB 1118. Also on today’s “Closer Look with Rose Scott,” the Atlanta People's Campaign will host its third assembly on Saturday, March 14. The aim is to have neighbors meet neighbors, discuss problems in their communities, and invoke change. Organizer Mshairi Siyanda joined Host Rose Scott on Wednesday's "Closer Look" to discuss the upcoming gathering and her hope for community-focused solutions. Movements like this became important to Siyanda after growing up in an Atlanta neighborhood that struggled economically, and after experiencing uncomfortable and changing local attitudes about Black wealth after the 1996 Olympics.

Let us know what you think about the podcast!Episode 208: When “Good Behavior” Comes at a Cost: How Behavior-Focused Parenting Disconnects FamiliesAre you wondering why your adult child won't talk to you—even though they always seemed like the “easy one” growing up?In this episode, we explore how parenting that focuses only on behavior—obedience, manners, doing the “right” thing—can lead to emotional distance between parents and their adult children. This kind of behavior-focused parenting often results in adult children who perform in their relationships rather than show up authentically. They become experts at people-pleasing, suppressing their true feelings, and maintaining the image of being the “good” child… all to preserve attachment.If you've been feeling rejected by your adult child, or like you're walking on eggshells around them, this episode will help you understand the root causes of that disconnect.You'll learn:Why focusing only on behavior creates emotional disconnectionHow attachment needs drive children to “perform” instead of express themselvesThe long-term effects of emotional suppression: defensiveness, stonewalling, performative gesturesWhy many adult children feel lost in their relationships—even when they're “doing everything right”How to shift from behavior control to emotional connectionWhat “differentiation of self” looks like in parent-adult child dynamicsHow to begin rebuilding trust and repairing relationships without needing to control the outcomeThis is especially for you if you've searched for:“how to reconnect with an estranged adult child”“parenting adult children relationships”“why does my child hate me”“emotional healing for moms”“healing after estrangement”or “how to fix a broken relationship with adult child”You're not alone. Many parents find themselves here—and there is a way forward.Ready to take the next step? Visit tinagosney.com to learn how you can work with me as your family relationship coach.

Interview with Philippe Cloutier, CEO, Cartier ResourcesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/cartier-resources-tsxvecr-market-economics-fuel-250000m-drilling-campaign-9002Recording date: 1st of March 2026Cartier Resources (TSXV: ECR) has emerged as a unique investment opportunity in Quebec's Abitibi Greenstone belt, positioned as the only remaining independent junior explorer in the 50-kilometer corridor between Val-d'Or and Malartic. The company finds itself surrounded by major producers—Agnico Eagle, Wesdome, El Dorado, and Fresnillo—whose combined market capitalization of $200 billion dwarfs Cartier's $130 million valuation.CEO Philippe Cloutier outlined a disciplined exploration strategy that prioritizes building per-share value over responding to retail investor pressure for aggressive drilling expansion. The company is systematically evaluating 10 targets representing four mineralization types along a single fault corridor, leveraging over 100,000 meters of historical drilling data from 600+ diamond drill holes spanning 15 kilometers. Rather than prospecting randomly, Cartier is developing a comprehensive camp-scale geological model by reassessing 80 years of historical discoveries around a past-producing gold mine.Cartier's 2026 program includes continuous drilling with two rigs, metallurgical testing integration, an updated resource estimate, and a refreshed preliminary economic assessment using current gold prices rather than the $1,750 assumption from the 2023 study. The company is evaluating multiple development pathways including toll milling, proprietary mill construction, bulk sampling, and direct shipping ore scenarios, with the Portal target's proximity to infrastructure offering near-term monetization potential.Significantly, senior producers are already reviewing Cartier's data room, seeking assets with 20-30 year mine lives. Recent M&A consolidation—including Fresnillo's acquisition of Probe Gold and IAMGold's purchase of Northern Superior—demonstrates the thinning pool of quality Canadian junior assets. The company has recently acquired ground enabling exploration of Canadian Malartic-type mineralization similar to discoveries that led to Agnico Eagle's Odyssey program.With 85% of budget directed to ground-based exploration and expanded marketing efforts in Europe and Asia, Cartier maintains strategic focus on controllable factors while positioning for potential acquisition by neighboring majors seeking to extend mine life in this proven tier-one jurisdiction.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/cartier-resources-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this practical episode of the 95 Podcast, Dale and Joseph sit down with volunteer expert Mary Ann Sibley to kick off a five-part series on preparing churches for Easter. Mary Ann shares her powerful testimony of being served in a church parking lot by a smiling volunteer that ultimately led to her salvation.Our discussion reveals why the service truly starts before people enter the building. The conversation explores how to shift from recruiting volunteers out of need to building mission-focused teams through relationship, how to have difficult conversations with volunteers in the wrong roles, and why churches must stop doing 20 things poorly to focus on 1-2 things well.With Easter bringing a surge of spiritually hungry young families back to church, this episode provides actionable strategies for small and mid-size churches to care for volunteers, create meaningful connections, and prepare for maximum impact during the most critical season of the year.Show Notes: https://95network.org/summary-preparing-your-church-volunteers-for-easter-expert-training-tips-from-mary-ann-sibley-on-building-mission-focused-teams/Support the show

In this season of life, success asks different questions. Not just What am I building? but How am I living while I build it?

Post-Gazette Steelers insider Christopher Carter recaps the NFL combine from the team's perspective. He explains that Alabama QB Ty Simpson impressed the team's front office, led by GM Omar Khan and coach Mike McCarthy. But that meetings focused most closely on receivers and defensive backs. Some are expected to be Day 1 picks, including Makai Lemon, Carnell Tate, Colton Hood, Jordyn Tyson and KC Concepcion. Others, however, included likely Day 2 picks including Dillon Thieneman, Ted Hurst, Antonio Williams and Bud Clark, signaling that the team could take a couple of players from both position groups with their five scheduled picks in the first three rounds.

There are plenty of opinions, both for and against the Pittsburgh Steelers, that go along with the majority. Sometimes it's good to pose a counter argument for ones that could be taking it too much to the extreme. Join Dave Schofield as he offers some unpopular opinions about the Pittsburgh Steelers that go against the general narrative. This week Dave looks at things a little differently as this opinion about the philosophy of ownership is unpopular not because fans don't agree, but because they don't like it.

You Can't Retire From Purpose Dr. Alan Rozanski on the Six Domains of Health and What It Really Means to Age Well In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Alan Rozanski — cardiologist, lifestyle medicine physician, professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, and a founding pioneer of behavioral cardiology. With nearly 300 published articles, Dr. Rozanski has spent 40 years studying how our physical and mental behaviors shape heart health.What We CoverThe Aha Moment. Forty years ago, Dr. Rozanski watched patients' heart function deteriorate while simply talking about stress — just as it would on a treadmill. That observation launched a career exploring the mind-body connection.The Six Domains of Health.Physical Health — Exercise, resistance training, sleep, and nutrition. After 30, we lose 3–8% of muscle mass per decade. Resistance training can slow that decline.Mindset — Optimists live longer and show better biological markers. Gratitude costs nothing but attention.Emotional Well-Being — Chronic depression is one of the heart's greatest threats. Happiness builds resilience and extends life.Social Connection — The size and quality of your social network is a powerful predictor of longevity.Sense of Purpose — "You can retire from a job, but you can never retire your need for purpose."Stress Management — Mild challenge stress promotes growth. Toxic, uncontrollable stress damages health. Boredom carries its own quiet risks.The Biology. Mental states translate into physical disease through stress hormones, insulin resistance, inflammation, and even changes in brain structure. The good news: many of these changes are reversible.Mental Clutter. Scattered attention drains energy. Focused work sprints and intentional recovery help protect mental clarity.Healthcare Today. Dr. Rozanski speaks candidly about the geriatrician shortage, confusing nutritional guidelines, eroding doctor-patient time, and AI's emerging role in restoring it.Key Takeaway Health is not the absence of disease — it is vitality. That feeling is available at 19, 60, and 99. The six domains are six doorways. Wherever you are, one of them is a place to start.Connect with Dr. Rozanski Website: alanrozanski.com | LinkedIn: Dr. Alan RozanskiConnect with Dr. Alan Rozanski

[Season 6, Episode 27] In this clarifying and Christ-centered episode of the I AM Beautiful Wild Free Podcast, we boldly declare: I AM Focused.

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, host Karl Bryan flies solo while Rode Dog is away, answering listener questions on where to find the best coaching clients, impressing business owners at networking events, and mastering the art of consistency to drive business coaching success. Karl packs the episode with actionable insights, practical frameworks (like the 10/10 frame), and real-world examples any coach can use to grow their practice and deliver more value to clients. Key Topics Covered The Power of Frame Control in Coaching Relationships Karl explains the importance of spending 10% of your meeting time in an "upper frame," 10% in a "lower frame," and the majority—80%—in an "equal frame" when interacting with potential clients. This dynamic helps build respect and trust, especially when dealing with more successful business owners. Best Sources for New Coaching Clients He breaks down multiple lead generation avenues, emphasizing that your "best client is you five years ago"—target businesses where you can deeply relate to their challenges. Karl lists practical places to find prospects, including businesses advertising locally, new business registries, joint venture partners, and business networking groups. How to Impress at Networking Events Karl shares tactics for being memorable: always have three "bombs" (unique, value-driven statements) to drop in conversation, use storytelling with conflict and a clear outcome, and focus on effort and process over just touting your success. Consistency as the Ultimate Key to Success He doubles down on the idea that consistency and discipline—not luck—attract ideal clients. Demonstrating reliability in your marketing, networking, and delivery helps draw high-caliber, growth-minded clients who value the same traits. Diagnosing and Fixing High Revenue, Low Profit Businesses Finally, Karl walks through a blueprint for helping businesses with strong top-line sales but weak profit margins. He advocates for a methodical review of all expenses, process improvements, pricing strategies, and creating recurring revenue models. Notable Quotes "Your best client is always going to be you five years ago." "To be valuable, you have to be memorable." "Success does not belong to the lucky; it belongs to the focused." "Consistency and discipline—if you want those clients, you have to demonstrate those traits first." "If you want to influence business owners, make them envious of who you are, not what you have." Actionable Takeaways Identify Your Ideal Client: Start with the person you were five years ago—target those business owners, as you'll understand their pain points and can speak their language. Expand Your Lead Generation: Look beyond social media—search for businesses advertising locally, check new business registries, join networking organizations like BNI or the Chamber of Commerce, and build joint venture partnerships. Impress Through Value and Storytelling: Come prepared to every networking event with three impactful concepts or stories that make people say, "Wow, I've never heard it explained like that before." Practice Relentless Consistency: Show up with discipline—whether it's weekly live events, ongoing content, or daily outreach. Your consistency will become your magnet for disciplined, high-value clients. When Solving Low Profit Margins: Go through each expense line to determine if it helps win or keep a client—if not, cut it. Review pricing, renegotiate with vendors, and design a recurring revenue model. Homework for Coaches: Pick a niche and list 50 ways you can help that type of business. This will boost your focus, readiness, and enthusiasm when prospecting.

In this episode, host Dan Karnuta welcomes Kevin Kumler, president and general manager of Levanto, to discuss how the Baylor Scott & White Health-backed platform is redefining employer-sponsored wellness. Kumler explains that Levanto brings multiple health solutions — such as weight management, musculoskeletal care, mental health support and nurse triage — into one integrated app, reducing fragmentation and personalizing care across conditions and life stages. The goal is to extend trusted health system expertise beyond hospital walls and help employees stay healthy instead of waiting until issues become acute. The conversation highlights Levanto's value to employers: lowering unnecessary costs, improving productivity and enhancing benefits offerings through a simple per-member-per-month model that works alongside existing insurance plans. Kumler also outlines how AI supports both operational efficiency and patient-facing tools, while emphasizing a blended "AI plus human" approach to care. Overall, the episode positions integrated, employer-focused wellness as a practical step toward a more sustainable healthcare system. Karnuta is an associate professor in the Naveen Jindal School of Management's Organizations, Strategy and International Management Area as well as director of its Professional Program in Healthcare Management.

Today Ron Simmons unpacks the latest Epstein file fallout, listing major resignations, such as Thomas Pritzker, Larry Summers, and Morgan McSweeney, as well as the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. He uses these men to warn about how “bad company ruins good morals” for both public figures and families. He then analyzes Marco Rubio's Munich Security Conference speech on Western civilization, sovereignty, and strong allies, contrasting it with AOC's bumbling on Taiwan and Marxist definition of culture. Ron then offers practical financial advice for young families and answers listener questions on raising godly kids, government assistance, marriage prep, and why Christianity is true.

Neuroscience supports that repeated positive input rewires thought patterns. Boundaries and Time Management Learn to say “No” as a complete sentence. Set boundaries for phone calls and social interactions to protect productivity. Busy professionals should establish communication rules (e.g., “Do you have a minute?”). Authenticity and Leadership Authenticity is key—embrace your natural gifts and use them to transform spaces. Leadership requires mindset shifts when moving from peer to manager roles. Mentorship should be intentional and specific, not generic (“pick your brain” requests need structure). 1 Million Lives Transform A movement to help women rewrite their narratives, reclaim confidence, and lead boldly. Focus on self-awareness, boundaries, and empowerment strategies. Notable Quotes “Notice in that moment that you are muting yourself.” “Stand up when you speak—you command the room.” “No is a complete sentence.” “Our gifts are not for us; they are for other people.” “What you say to yourself does more damage than anything anyone else could say.” “Authenticity isn’t lip service—it’s showing up as who you truly are.” “Boundaries are not selfish; they are necessary.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

1. The Case at the Supreme Court The case is Trump v. Vos Selections, argued on Nov. 5, 2025. Small businesses are challenging Trump-era tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). 2. Central Legal Questions Does IEEPA’s power to “regulate imports” include authority to impose tariffs? Did Congress delegate too much taxing authority to the President?→ This triggers two major constitutional doctrines: Non‑Delegation Doctrine – Congress cannot hand over core lawmaking powers (like taxation) without clear limits. Major Questions Doctrine – Major economic or political actions require explicit congressional authorization. 3. Constitutional Tension Article I, Section 8 gives Congress the power to: Lay and collect taxes/tariffs Regulate commerce with foreign nations Tariffs sit at the intersection of foreign policy (executive power) and taxation (legislative power). 4. Oral Argument Themes Justices skeptical of Trump’s argument: Roberts – Concerned tariffs are fundamentally taxes on Americans, which is Congress’s domain. Gorsuch & Barrett – Pressed the need for clear statutory limits; worried about unchecked executive authority. Justices leaning toward upholding the tariffs: Kavanaugh – Emphasized long history of broad presidential discretion in foreign affairs. Thomas – Focused on historical practice of using tariffs as trade tools. Alito – Concerned about practical impacts and the large reliance interests ($133B already collected). 5. Predicted Outcome (from the document’s speaker) Expected ruling: 5–4 in favor of Trump, upholding tariff authority. Predicted majority: Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Kavanaugh + either Barrett or Gorsuch. Reasoning: Court is reluctant to disrupt years of foreign policy and economic decisions already relying on the tariffs. Institutional stability concerns—similar to Roberts’ reasoning in the Affordable Care Act case. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
