In this episode of the Forward Podcast, Kari discusses the unrealistic expectations many women carry every day. From feeling like you have to do it all, to the pressure of comparison, appearance, motherhood, and keeping everyone happy, women often live under burdens God never intended them to bear.   Join us as we talk about finding freedom from unrealistic expectations, embracing God's grace, and discovering that your worth is not found in perfection, but in Christ. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, behind, or simply not enough, this episode is for you.

This week on the Forward Podcast, Pastor Thomas tackles a subject many men silently wrestle with every day, unrealistic expectations. Modern men are carrying enormous pressure. Be successful. Be strong. Be spiritual. Be emotionally stable. Lead your family perfectly. Never struggle. Never slow down. Never fail. But what happens when the expectations we place on ourselves... or the ones culture places on us, become impossible to carry? In this episode, we have an honest conversation about comparison, burnout, leadership pressure, marriage expectations, spiritual fatigue, and the hidden weight many men carry quietly. We discuss how social media, culture, and even our own pride can create standards God never intended us to live under.

Graduation is exciting—but it can also feel overwhelming. In this episode of the Forward Podcast, Thomas and Kari talk about the “next steps” every graduating senior should think about as they enter a new season of life. From faith and friendships to purpose, pressure, and staying grounded in a changing world, this conversation is full of practical encouragement for graduates and those investing in them.

Have you made decisions that pulled you away from Christ? You're not alone. Welcome to The Forward Podcast. Today we're talking about Walking Back to Christ After Bad Decisions. No matter how far you've gone, Jesus is ready to welcome you home. In this episode, we'll walk through practical steps to return to Him with grace and hope. Let's dive in.

Marriage is under attack today, and many young couples are feeling the pressure. In this episode of the Forward Podcast, Thomas and Kari have an honest, off-the-cuff conversation about struggles they faced early in their own marriage. They open up about two key areas that caused tension—teamwork and communication—and how God helped them grow through it. If your marriage isn't where you want it to be, be encouraged: it's never too late to start building something better.

In this episode of the Look Forward Podcast from S&P Global, host Aries Poon speaks with Natznet Tesfay, Global Head of Analysis at S&P Global Market Intelligence, about how technology is becoming the decisive game changer in geopolitics as we approach 2026. They explore why geopolitics has shifted from sporadic shocks to a constant operating condition, and how traditional stabilizers like frictionless trade, predictable regulation, and cheap capital are becoming "unmoored." Natznet explains S&P Global's concept of the "age of agility" and why policy itself is now a major source of market volatility, requiring leaders to track it as closely as macro data.

Join Steve Reige and guest, John Krummell, CEO of Advance Storage Products, for an inspiring conversation about leadership, vision, and the realities of running a family business.

Complacency is the slow death of leadership. When we tolerate “good enough,” we quietly set the ceiling for our team's potential—and our own. When you say “good enough” is acceptable, you erode excellence. You send the message that mediocrity is tolerated, and that message ripples across culture, morale, and results. People disengage. Teams plateau. Opportunities slip away. As Jim Collins reminds us: “Good is the enemy of great.” And Gallup's research backs it up: only about 2 in 10 employees strongly agree that their performance is managed in a way that motivates them to do outstanding work. That's what happens when leaders accept mediocrity instead of inspiring excellence. The good news is that raising the bar doesn't mean driving people to exhaustion. Excellence isn't about perfection; it's about clarity, ownership, and progress. As Brené Brown says, “Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind.” When leaders clearly define expectations, celebrate growth, and model accountability, teams rise to meet higher standards. And it starts with us. We can't expect our people to reject complacency if we're coasting ourselves. Abraham Lincoln put it simply: “Whatever you are, be a good one.” Holding ourselves accountable to higher standards inspires trust, builds credibility, and makes excellence contagious. In this episode of Reflect Forward, I introduce a tool I call the Ownership Audit, a quarterly practice designed to identify and eliminate complacency within yourself, your team, and your organization. I'll walk you through how to use it to ask the hard questions, check for alignment with your mission and values, and take courageous action when “good enough” has crept in. Because the truth is, mediocrity doesn't just cost culture, it costs money. McKinsey research shows that companies with high-performance cultures are 3.7 times more likely to be top financial performers. Steve Jobs once said, “Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.” As leaders, we must become that yardstick. We must model what it looks like to expect and deliver excellence, not perfection, but the commitment to always do better. Mic Drop Moments • “Complacency is the slow death of leadership.” • “When leaders tolerate ‘good enough,' they set the ceiling for their team's potential.” • “Mediocrity doesn't just cost culture; it costs money.” • “Excellence isn't perfection; it's clarity and ownership.” • “If you tolerate average, you'll never unlock extraordinary.” Key Takeaways 1. Tolerating “good enough” erodes both culture and results. 2. Complacency spreads like a virus; leaders set the bar. 3. Raising standards is about clarity and compassion, not perfection. 4. The Ownership Audit helps leaders spot and eliminate mediocrity. 5. Holding yourself accountable to higher standards inspires trust, energizes your team, and keeps complacency from creeping in.

In this episode of the Forward Podcast, Thomas and Kari get real about complaining; yes, even between husband and wife, and when it comes to kids too. What's normal venting, and when does it go too far? Through fun questions, honest conversation, and a few laughs, they tackle the everyday struggles of grumbling in marriage and family life. Along the way, they share how to overcome unhealthy patterns, communicate better, and build a more grateful home. Both lighthearted and serious, this episode will encourage you to shift from complaints to conversations that bring you closer together.

Degly Mendez shares a human-centered MSP philosophy built on trust, patience, and long-term partnerships at GTIA ChannelCon “No small business left behind.” — Degly Mendez, CEO, Avanzar IT Systems At GTIA ChannelCon 2025, Degly Mendez, CEO of Avanzar IT Systems, joined Doug Green of Technology Reseller News for a powerful and personal conversation about empathy, leadership, and how MSPs can meaningfully support small businesses. Avanzar IT Systems—Avanzar meaning “to move forward” in Spanish—specializes in serving small to medium-sized businesses across industries, including law firms, manufacturing, CPA offices, and real estate. But Mendez made clear that the company's mission is about more than just technology. “If we can help our clients move forward, we do it—whether they can afford it today or not.” Rather than focus on quick wins or transactional revenue, Mendez advocates for building relationships rooted in empathy, trust, and a long-term vision. “These aren't transactions,” he said. “These are partnerships that we hope will last years.” As a proud member and leader within GTIA—serving on the Cybersecurity Executive Council, ISAO Advisory Group, and as a frequent speaker—Mendez echoed the inclusive spirit of ChannelCon, where companies big and small share the same 10x10 space and voice. “Everyone needs help. And everyone can provide it.” With a guiding philosophy of “no small business left behind,” Mendez and Avanzar IT Systems are building a future where technology empowers—not excludes—businesses of all sizes.

On February 7th, 2023, Chris Meek interviewed Joel for the podcast Next Steps Forward, and explored: Does God Exist? How does meditation reveal God? What is the nature of evil? Where does God exist? Can we experience God directly? Why are we here on earth? What is the purpose of life? Why does God ask us to struggle? Does morality matter? Is there life after death? What is a koan? Next Steps Forward is a podcast hosted by Chris Meek, the Mission Statement of the podcast: Personal empowerment, commitment to our own well-being and the motivation to achieve more than we ever thought possible are the ingredients of a better life. And, they're all within our reach. Next Steps Forward with Chris Meek delves into each aspect of the three keys that add energy, excitement, direction and purpose to everything that we do. Each week, Chris hosts leaders from the worlds of business, sports, entertainment, medicine, politics and public policy as they engage in thought-provoking discussions to help us all take the next step forward on our own journeys to our better selves and greater service to others. Biography Co-founder, Chairman, and CEO of SoldierStrong, Chris Meek has been recognized for his philanthropy with the President's Call to Service Award, March of Dimes Franklin Delano Roosevelt Outstanding Corporate Citizen Award, Syracuse University's Orange Circle Award, the ACT-IAC “Game Changer” Award, and was named a “Face of Philanthropy” by the Chronicle of Philanthropy. He discusses resiliency, empowerment, and leadership through adversity on his weekly podcast, “Next Steps Forward with Chris Meek,” via VoiceAmerica network's Empowerment Channel. Next Steps Forward is his first book. Joel David Lesses founded the Education Training Center as a means of counseling those marginalized by trauma, addiction and psychological distress, and its effects including incarceration, homelessness and institutionalization. He is dedicated to reframing mental health distress as a potential spiritual marker. Joel has lived in Nepal and Israel and is also a poet expressing the landscape of the mystical elements of our human beings. He believes world religion, poetry, spirituality, and meditation encompass the most vital aspects of our mind and life. The crux of his own personal journey are the questions and answers to his own koan or inquiry: “what is the matter with me?” revealing the individual and universal aspects of our inherent and potent creativity. Everything is flux, everything is poetry. His other passions include the intersection of poetry, spirituality, science, and phenomenology shared and disparate in the human experience, with the transformative power of self-inquiry and introspection through contemplative and meditative practices. Joel holds the belief that the fundamental transformation of individuals and our collective comes through barreling inward, relentlessly asking the questions, “Who am I?” or “What am I” or “What is the matter with me?” The latter being a question which after years of examination, shattered a false sense of self, the work of integration of that experience being an ongoing work in progress.

The Path Forward – The Podcast! In this episode, we explore what it truly means to have a contrite heart. We dive into the power of confession, the freedom that comes with acknowledging sin, and how embracing humility opens the door to deeper grace and restoration. 

This episode of The Path Forward Podcast is one of a four-part series, focusing on spiritual growth, repentance, and overcoming persistent sin. Hosted by Terrence and Beka, this discussion centers on Psalm 51:17 and the concept of having a broken spirit in relation to repentance. The episode explores what it means to have a broken spirit, how it connects to personal transformation, and how God uses brokenness to shape character and faith.

Alan Rihm is LIVE this week at Cloud Connections 2024 “People can be your biggest competitive advantage,” says Alan Rihm, Fall Forward CEO and Co-Founder. “Or you can waste a lot of time and have a huge amount of turnover and a lot of disgruntled.” In the creative storm of the cloud communications industry, Rihm reminds is, in this brief podcast that organizations are as defined by their people, their talent, and how that talent led, as by the services and products they offer. The two tracks run side by side. Rihm tells us that our technology might be radically different just two or three years from now. But the company culture is also a thing in motion. Will your team look forward, each day to coming to work, to doing the actual work? Will be inspired to see new things in the new technologies?  Or will a poor culture make the least of the most advanced innovations. “We're all about trying to help leaders leverage technology to get the most out of their team.” Alan is joined by Dave Gilbert, Cloud Evangelist at Cavemen Investments LLC. Both Dave and Alan have led organizations up through stages from beginnings, take off to an eventual successful sale. They have seen the seasons of technological changes and the continuity of the human element: the need for the CEO to build a special culture. Alan Rihm and Dave Gilbert are LIVE at Cloud Connections 2024. Today Alan leads fall Forum, helping startups with a venture studio. Visit www.fallforward.com

In this segment of the Start Thinking Forward podcast, we have the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Todd and Kim Saxon from Indiana University. These esteemed guests bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in advising startups and entrepreneurship, making them the perfect experts to shed light on the challenges and strategies for success in the startup world.We kick off the conversation by highlighting their passion for educating entrepreneurs and preparing them for the obstacles they may face along their journey. Dr. Todd and Kim emphasize the critical phases that startups go through, which we outline as pre-revenue, minimal viable product, replicable product, and scaling. Understanding these phases is key to achieving long-term success.One important takeaway from our discussion is that success as an entrepreneur is not limited to raising venture capital or going through all four stages. Being self-employed and creating jobs for others is also a meaningful and valuable achievement. We also delve into the three P's: punt, pivot, and proceed, which are essential considerations as entrepreneurs navigate through the different stages. Thoughtful decision-making is crucial to make the most of the opportunities and challenges that arise.Moving on, we dive into the concept of a lean startup versus traditional business plans. We stress the importance of formulating hypotheses, conducting thorough tests, and avoiding careless assumptions. We draw examples from startups that failed to gather market feedback and adjust their strategies accordingly, leading to their downfall. The need for startups to adapt and attract their target audience is emphasized throughout the conversation.Furthermore, we explore the concept of hidden liabilities and debts that startups often overlook, likening them to the hidden dangers faced by the Titanic. These mistakes, or "icebergs," can have serious consequences. To help entrepreneurs navigate these treacherous waters, we share 32 common mistakes that entrepreneurs should avoid. Hard work and equity earned through efforts are underscored as essential ingredients for success.Next, we address the challenges of being the first in the market and stress the importance of having a profitable mission. We discuss various revenue generation strategies and the significance of considering customer preferences and market dynamics when choosing a business model. Continuous experimentation and learning based on customer feedback play a crucial role in staying ahead of the curve.Throughout the conversation, we emphasize the value of setting milestones, resisting the temptation to cut corners, and prioritizing customer needs and desires. We also touch on the importance of personal relationships, support from partners and family members, and the imperative of taking action and creating opportunities.As we wrap up the conversation, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Todd and Kim Saxon for sharing their insights and expertise. We encourage our listeners to go back and rewatch the episode, take notes, purchase their book, and visit their website for further guidance. We sign off by reminding everyone to always start thinking forward, innovate fearlessly, and push the boundaries of what is possible in the world of entrepreneurship.
