The Becoming You Show with Leah Roling: Inspire, Impact, & Influence Your Life
Part Two is here — and it's the episode your best life has been waiting for. In Part One, we pulled back the curtain on the three major culprits of mental and emotional clutter: ✔ Unmanaged thinking ✔ Indulgent emotions ✔ Unspoken expectations …and we named the hidden weight they add to a life that's already extraordinary underneath the noise. In Part Two, we pick up exactly where we left off — and we go deeper. This episode teaches you how to subtract the unnecessary hard, close your energy leaks, clean up emotional loops, dissolve decision debt, and step into the version of yourself who leads life with clarity, confidence, and ease. You'll learn: • The Life Profitability Formula • How to identify and remove energy leaks • The manual you've been giving others without consent • Why overwhelm isn't a feeling — it's a fog of unmade decisions • How to use boundaries, requests, and agreements to clean up your relationships • Why ease isn't laziness — it's identity • The 7-Day Subtraction Challenge • Real self-leadership scripts for everyday life If Part One opened your eyes… Part Two is going to open your entire life.

Today I'm welcoming back Angela Warren, one of my very first Fertility Framework clients and a longtime friend of the podcast. When she first shared her story back in episode 92, she was secretly newly pregnant. Today she's back to tell the rest of her story. Episode Highlights: Angela shares: How charting and basal body temperature gave her the first hint she might be pregnant How she prepared for a natural hospital birth with a supportive OB, and the beautiful, unmedicated delivery of her son, Azariah. How she developed a severe kidney infection and sepsis 24 hours after birth, and her newborn being flown to a NICU by air ambulance. Through all of it, God showed Himself faithful, and the meaning of her baby's name, “helped by God,” became a living testimony. If you're preparing for pregnancy, birth, or postpartum, Angela's story will encourage you to prepare wisely and trust God deeply.

Most marketers and experts don't have a conversion problem—they have a messaging problem. Their websites, emails, and content are packed with facts, features, and “I help…” statements that never touch the emotional brain that actually decides to buy. In the age of AI-generated content and endless noise, it's the human story behind your offer that cuts through and converts.In this episode of Your Digital Marketing Coach, I'm joined by Aurora Winter—Hollywood-trained storyteller, entrepreneur, and author of ten books, including Turn Words Into Wealth and Marketing Fast Track. Aurora has helped entrepreneurs, attorneys, and experts transform their “invisible” expertise into powerful IP, profitable books, and seven-figure opportunities by fixing how they talk about what they do.We dive into the specific messaging shifts that turn flat copy into compelling stories, why your brand will determine whether you compete on value or race to the bottom on price, and how to use books, video, and AI-era search engines (Amazon, YouTube, and beyond) to establish real authority.

Welcome to The Chrisman Commentary, your go-to daily mortgage news podcast, where industry insights meet expert analysis. Hosted by Robbie Chrisman, this podcast delivers the latest updates on mortgage rates, capital markets, and the forces shaping the housing finance landscape. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just looking to stay informed, you'll get clear, concise breakdowns of market trends and economic shifts that impact the mortgage world.In today's episode, we discuss Freddie Mac's new AI/ML framework set to take effect March 3, 2026. Plus, Robbie sits down with MBA's Marcia Davies for a discussion on lessons from a career that's soon culminating in retirement, and themes such as self-advocacy, and expanding opportunities for the next generation. And we close by examining what sort of deterioration we are seeing in home prices.Today's podcast is presented by Two Dots. Whether it's applying to rent an apartment or take out a loan, today's approval process is full of blind spots and inefficiencies. Critical data sits locked inside documents, leaving companies with an incomplete picture that causes delays, increased risk, and inconsistent decisions. Two Dots is building a better system. One where underwriting and screening is automated not manual. Where applications happen in real-time within a dynamic and contextual conversation. And where better decisions are made faster for everyone.
In this episode, we unpack Pastor Ben's message A Biblical Framework for Parenting. Long before modern challenges emerged, God designed parenting as a sacred calling—one that forms hearts, models faith, and raises a generation ready to follow Jesus with confidence and conviction. We explore six foundational words from Scripture—SHOW, TEACH, LOVE, GUARD, DISCIPLINE, and PREPARE—and talk through what each one looks like in everyday family life. Along the way, we answer questions, share practical guidance, and offer real-life insight into how parents can build homes rooted in truth, strengthened by love, and guided by God's purpose.

Most entrepreneurs think storytelling is about simply entertaining. But the stories that move markets, build movements, and create generational brands all follow a deeper pattern that is wired into every human across every culture in history. In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show we talk about the Hero's Journey! I open up Joseph Campbell's The Hero With a Thousand Faces and show you why this framework has shaped your favorite movies, your personal development, your beliefs, and even the way ClickFunnels grew to a billion dollars in sales. If you want your message to resonate at a primal level and persuade people without feeling pushy, this is the story structure your business has been missing. Key Highlights: ◼️How Joseph Campbell discovered that every enduring story across time and culture follows the same pattern. ◼️Why George Lucas built the first Star Wars movie using this exact framework and how thousands of Hollywood films now follow it. ◼️The core steps of the Hero's Journey and why audiences subconsciously connect to it in movies, books, and real life. ◼️How applying this structure transformed my webinars, funnels, events, and ultimately the growth of the ClickFunnels movement. ◼️The three versions of the Hero's Journey you can study and use: Campbell's original, Christopher Vogler's Hollywood version, and my Expert Secrets version. The Hero's Journey isn't just some ‘fun' thing to talk about... It is the blueprint behind every story that has ever moved a crowd, converted an audience, or transformed a customer. Once you understand it, you start seeing it everywhere and you will know exactly how to weave it into your own marketing, sales presentations, and content. If you want my notes with all three frameworks side by side, you can find them here: ◼️https://russellbrunson.com/notes ◼️If you've got a product, offer, service… or idea… I'll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event → https://sellingonline.com/podcast ◼️Still don't have a funnel?

Welcome back to the Messy Success Podcast! In this episode, Elizabeth breaks down the three essential ingredients every offer needs to actually convert — whether you're creating something brand new or refining an offer you've had for years. If you've ever wondered why an offer didn't land the way you hoped, or why selling sometimes feels harder than it should, this episode is the clarity you've been craving. Elizabeth shares how to make your offer feel magnetic, what buyers need to feel emotionally before they ever look at the deliverables, and why co-creation is becoming more powerful than traditional courses. You'll hear how to position your offer so people feel seen, understood, and supported, plus how to clearly communicate what they're actually getting so there's zero confusion standing in the way of a yes. Whether you're aiming for a quick cash injection or prepping your next signature program, this simple three-part framework will help you create offers that feel aligned for you — and irresistible to your people.
Practice ownership comes with a unique paradox: the autonomy you fought for also means carrying the full weight of clinical work, business management, and leadership. In this episode, Tracy breaks down the World Health Organization's three-phase burnout framework and reveals why nearly half of all physicians are experiencing burnout symptoms—and what makes practice owner burnout distinctly different and dangerous. Click here for full show notes Is your practice growth-ready? See Where Your Practice Stands: Take our Practice Growth Readiness Assessment Episode Highlights The WHO's three phases of burnout: exhaustion, cynicism, and reduced professional efficacy—and why recognizing which phase you're in determines what help you need Why American culture makes Phase 1 exhaustion nearly impossible to recognize (hint: we've been conditioned to see depletion as a badge of honor) The shocking global statistics: from 43% burnout rates in the US to 66% emotional exhaustion among Portuguese physicians Why practice owner burnout can't be solved with employed physician solutions—you can't "delegate up" when you ARE the up Real examples of what each phase looks like: from sitting in your driveway without energy to enter your home, to thinking cynical thoughts that horrify you The $4.6 billion annual cost of physician burnout to the US healthcare system—and the incalculable personal cost to you, your practice, and your family Why autonomy alone isn't enough: the protection it provides versus the isolation and weight it creates Memorable Quotes "Burnout is not a personal failing. It's a predictable occupational phenomenon with identifiable phases." "Phase one exhaustion is your prevention opportunity. This is where you still have an easy exit ramp. If you catch yourself and actually address it—not by doubling down, but by making strategic changes—prevention strategies actually work." "You can't think your way out of cynicism using the same thinking that got you there." "Your practice will survive a few weeks without you, but you might not survive continuing to push through phase three." "When you're the owner, you can't just leave. Your practice is your livelihood, your investment, and your legacy." "You are not broken. You are not weak. You are responding predictably to chronic stress that hasn't been successfully managed." Closing Understanding burnout isn't about labeling yourself—it's about getting clear on what level of support you actually need. Whether you're in the prevention zone, need intervention, or are facing a crisis, there's a path forward. Join us next episode as we dive into the strategic prevention approaches that work specifically for independent practice owners.

You cannot out-strategize your internal architecture.

HIGHLIGHTS Why no amount of strategy can outperform a limiting belief system. The four core belief areas that determine how far your business can actually grow.

Many small and mid-size businesses breathe a sigh of relief once they earn a compliance certification, but the work doesn't stop there. Certifications like SOC 2, ISO, or CMMC aren't one-time milestones.

Notes: Constitution Law 2025 – Full Outline (https://thelawschoolofamerica.com/ConstitutionLaw2025.html) Understanding Federal Legislative Power: A Deep Dive into the Commerce Clause This episode traces how federal power in the United States expanded and then hit its modern limits through the Commerce Clause. We follow the story from Gibbons v. Ogden to Wickard v. Filburn, and into the era of Lopez, Morrison, and the Affordable Care Act decision, NFIB v. Sebelius. You will hear how the Court went from a broad vision of “commerce” as interstate intercourse, to the aggregation theory that let Congress regulate even a farmer growing wheat for his own family, and then to the modern doctrine that pulls that power back and demands a real connection to economic activity. What we explore in this episode Gibbons v. Ogden and the early, expansive definition of commerce. Wickard v. Filburn as the high-water mark of federal regulatory power. How the Civil Rights Act relied on the Commerce Clause to survive review. United States v. Lopez and Morrison drawing lines around noneconomic activity. NFIB v. Sebelius and why the individual mandate failed under commerce but survived as a tax. Quick Takeaways You need the full “movie” of how Commerce Clause power grew and then contracted. Regulating a farmer feeding his own family was the absolute high watermark of federal power. The Court's logic: if everyone did that, the national market would be distorted. Modern exams turn on recognizing when the pendulum swings back and applying the limits from Lopez and Morrison. Keywords: Commerce Clause, federal power, Gibbons v. Ogden, Wickard v. Filburn, Lopez, Morrison, NFIB v. Sebelius, aggregation theory, legal history, constitutional law.
4/4. Climate Pragmatism and Denial of Renewable Energy Constraints — Terry Anderson (Editor) — Andersonhighlights Bjorn Lomborg's "climate pragmatism" framework, which advocates rational spending prioritizing immediate human needs rather than attempting to arrest climate change through technological transformation. Anderson confirms that genuine market adaptation is actively occurring, citing declining real estate valuations in storm-surge vulnerable areas of Dade County.

In this episode, Danielle Pluth and Ruth Isaac—Canadian occupational therapists and creators of the Good Sense OT Rocket Ship—share the innovative visual framework that's transforming how OTs assess, communicate, and support student participation.The Rocket Ship helps therapists differentiate sensory-based behaviors from other performance factors, guiding you from foundational sensory regulation all the way up through sensory-motor, reflexes, perceptual motor skills, interoception, and cognitive functions at the top of the “rocket.” This structure gives OTPs a clear map for identifying root causes of behavior and choosing targeted, meaningful school-based strategies that go far beyond “wiggle cushions and chewelry.”Whether you're brand-new to sensory integration or have years of experience, this conversation will deepen your clinical reasoning, strengthen your confidence, and help you clearly communicate sensory needs to teachers, parents, and IEP teams. If you've been searching for a practical, visually powerful way to explain sensory processing to your teams and build stronger intervention plans, the Good Sense Rocket Ship may be exactly what you've been missing.Learning Objectives:Understand the Good Sense Rocketship Framework and its application in addressing sensory-related behaviors in school-based OT practice.Learn strategies to identify and assess sensory processing challenges and their impact on students' functional performance.Explore effective interventions to support regulation, sensory-motor development, and collaboration with educators and parents.Thanks for tuning in!

He discusses John Ruhlin's sudden death and his immediate need to reconstitute the firm. He explains his initial struggle with gifting, his team's expertise, and the overall support from his team. Fulfilling a Promise and a Framework for Turnarounds The conversation turns to the idea of writing a book to fulfill a promise to John and provide a framework for turnarounds. He shares how John had been the top lead generator and how his crucial role in the firm left a large space to be filled. He explains the evolution of GIFT.OLOGY's philosophy and the development of the Beyond GIFT.OLOGY program. The Focus of GIFT.OLOGY Rod explains what GIFT.OLOGY is, how it works, and how it differentiates from other firms that play in this field. The focus is on personalized, non-promotional gifts to build relationships. He talks about the importance of reaching clients on a personal level and being present to clients' inner circles. He expands upon the acceleration of their platform and training program after John's passing, and how he managed the transition. A Relationship Operating System The interview moves on to the introduction of the Relationship Operating System to support leaders in building relationships, and Rod explains the components of the Relationship Operating System, including help identify, help connect, help equip, help track, help celebrate, and help scale. He talks about demonstrations of value, clarity conversations, and meaningful touchpoints through gifting. He also shares details about the development of a CRM plugin to support the training and execution of the Relationship Operating System and goes on to give a step-by-step explanation of the system. The Design of Connection Rod gives a detailed example of a client engagement, including the design of a connection plan, demonstration of value, how you communicate who you serve and how you serve, and gifting campaigns. He explains the role of GIFT.OLOGY in supporting leaders in their relationship-building efforts, and shares a detailed example of a client engagement, including the design of a connection plan and gifting campaigns. A Framework for Companies in Crisis Rod explains how he uses the same framework for GIFT.OLOGY as he does for other companies in crisis. He identifies the four types of crises: chronic underperformance, broken mirror, slow leak, and fire. Rod details the one-page recovery plan: clear purpose statement, go-forward operating plan, financial plan, and team plan. And he emphasizes the importance of moving fast with the plan and learning along the way. The Success of From Crisis to Clarity Rod talks about his book and his satisfaction with the feedback received for From Crisis to Clarity. He explains that the book's focus is on providing a simple framework for founders to navigate crises. He shares how the editing process was precise to ensure the book is concise and valuable for its target audience, and he shares his thoughts on the ongoing support and growth of GIFT.OLOGY despite the challenges faced.

Why even bestselling sex experts lose their desire—and how Dr. Emily's nervous system was so shot she didn't even want orgasms. The myth that kept her terrified to stop sex once it started: believing "blue balls" required hospitalization—and the truth that you can stop and start anytime. A parent worried their college-age kids aren't having sex or relationships—the questions to ask instead of pushing sex on them, and why nobody dies from not having sex but people do die from loneliness. The most important thing parents can do around sexuality: unlearn your own shame first—because your embarrassment when they ask questions teaches them more than any words ever could. The reframe for anyone struggling with desire: what you actually want when you want sex (it's not orgasm—you can do that alone), and what you don't want when you don't want sex.
