Points of Interest00:00 – 01:38 – Introduction: Marcel welcomes agency legal specialist Sharon Toerek, highlighting her long track record in the industry and setting the stage with a discussion about how quickly the agency world is changing.01:38 – 02:45 – Framing the AI Legal Conversation for Agencies: They position the core topic of the episode as the legal implications of AI adoption inside agencies, especially when serving enterprise clients with sensitive data and heightened risk concerns.02:45 – 05:03 – The Two Biggest AI Risk Buckets: IP and Data Privacy: Sharon identifies intellectual property and data privacy as the top two legal risk areas agencies must consider when using generative AI in strategy, creation, and data manipulation.05:03 – 08:11 – IP Infringement, Ownership, and Contract Clarity: She explains how generative AI can inadvertently infringe on others' IP, complicate ownership of deliverables, and increase the need for explicit AI usage and ownership language in MSAs and SOWs.08:11 – 10:23 – Agency-Created IP and Contractor Use of AI: Sharon explores the risks of building agency-owned IP with AI when ownership is uncertain, and stresses the importance of knowing how contractors use AI so their work aligns with promises made to clients.10:23 – 15:11 – The State of Case Law and Fair Use Signals: They discuss how little case law exists around AI, what early decisions suggest about training data and fair use, and why we still do not know how much human contribution is needed to secure protectable IP.15:11 – 18:26 – Blurring Lines Between Human and Machine-Created Work: Marcel and Sharon reflect on how modern creative tools embed AI in everyday workflows, making it harder to distinguish human-made from machine-generated content for legal and practical purposes.18:26 – 22:40 – A Practical Playbook for Reducing AI Legal Risk: Sharon outlines concrete steps agencies can take now: have AI conversations with clients, update contracts, understand tool terms, set internal and external AI policies, and right-size risk based on audience scale.22:40 – 26:05 – Where Insurance Fits in the AI Risk Equation: They examine how general liability, E&O, and cyber policies currently treat AI-related issues, and why insurers are likely to carve out or slowly add AI-specific coverage as risks and profits emerge.26:05 – 30:31 – Market Volatility, AI Shock, and Rising Agency M&A: Sharon connects AI disruption, economic uncertainty, and geopolitical tension to a surge in small and mid-size agency deals, noting many founders are simply tired of reinventing their businesses again.30:31 – 35:40 – IP as a Lever in Exits and Next Career Moves: She makes the case that agencies who develop and package their own IP create more options in M&A, whether selling IP separately, splitting the business, or using it to launch the next chapter of their careers.Show NotesInnovative Agency PodcastWebsite: legalandcreative.comLinkedIn - Sharon ToerekM&A Webinar Replay with SharonLove the PodcastLeave us a review here.

Was passiert wirklich hinter den Kulissen? Ulrike Guérot spricht in diesem Gespräch erstmals offen über das deutsche Zensur-Netzwerk, staatliche Einflussnahme, die Rolle von NGOs – und warum seit 2016 plötzlich alles auf dem Kopf steht. Warum wird Kritik sofort diffamiert? Warum sind auf einmal „links“ und „rechts“ vertauscht? Und wer entscheidet eigentlich, was wir denken sollen? Guérot war selbst Teil des Systems – bis sie unter die Räder kam. Jetzt erklärt sie, wie Kontrolle, Framing und politische Narrative entstehen… und warum viele Menschen das Gefühl haben, dass unser Land gerade aus den Fugen gerät. Dieses Gespräch wird dir einiges erklären, was du immer schon geahnt hast – aber nie so klar gehört hast.Ulrike Guérots neues Buch: https://amzn.eu/d/775jjc5Links im Video:Das Zensurnetzwerk Website: https://liber-net.org/germany/#deutsch Das Zensurnetzwerk: als PDF: https://liber-net.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/de-report-de.pdfThe German Censorship Network - Full Presentation in Berlin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeXC6AE9LVYRede vor dem Europäischen Parlament: https://liber-net.org/liber-net-director-speaks-at-the-eu-parliament/Du willst Ulrike Guérot unterstützen?Der laufende Rechtsweg bis zum Bundesarbeitsgericht betrifft zentrale Fragen von Wissenschafts- und Meinungsfreiheit.

As we enter the Annual Kwanzaa/Christmas/New Year two week corridor, Session 302 of In Class With Carr centers on the meaning of naming, framing, and narrative as sites of Governance, self-determination and collective power. Drawing on Carter Godwin Woodson's “Much Ado About a Name” essay in his 1933 book “The Miseducation of the Negro,” this week we use our Africana Studies Framework to reflect on, subjects such as Kwanzaa, Black Nationalism, and Pan-Africanism, emphasizing content and context, distinguishing Social Structure from Governance questions in order to empower community-centered knowledge. Rejecting both narrowly-framed academic framings and superficial efforts to rename and redirect the potential of collective power, we use this season of reflection and gratitude to remind ourselves of frameworks that support action, intergenerational learning and expectations, and movement-building rooted in ourselves.Are you a member of Knarrative?

AJ and Johnny unpack why great ideas often get rejected — even when the logic and data are flawless. The truth? You didn't lose the argument; you triggered someone's identity. In this episode, they reveal how ideas meet identity before logic, introducing two of the eight core competency identities that run every workplace: The Solver and The Protector. You'll learn how to read these identity patterns in meetings, frame your ideas for alignment instead of resistance, and move conversations forward without conflict. By the end, you'll know why competence alone stops working — and how to communicate in a way that gets real traction.

In this conversation, the veneer of political continuity is stripped back to reveal a world drifting toward harder borders, sharper identities and a reshaping of power once thought unthinkable. Gary Gerstle traces the erosion of the neoliberal order and the rise of a political logic that places national strength above universal norms. He examines how affordability stress, authoritarian impulses and fragmented parties are redrawing economic life and democratic expectations. The discussion widens into a global map of competing hegemons and the uneasy choices facing Europe and the United States. What emerges is a portrait of a century unsettled, yet not without agency.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on LinkedIn.Follow Gary on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Opening remarks on a shifting world and national security visions00:44 - Introduction to Top Traders Unplugged and context for the discussion01:40 - Framing the global macro environment and the need for deeper perspectives02:24 - Introducing Gary Gerstle and his work on political and economic orders04:00 - Defining the end of the neoliberal era and what has replaced it07:02 - The tension between authoritarian forces and liberal democratic hopes08:17 - Democracy under strain and the implications of Trump's second term10:06 - Shock, discipline and the early strategic force of Trump...

In this special Q&A leadership session, Dwayne Kerrigan brings forward one of his most personal and powerful teachings yet—an unfiltered look at problem-solving, decision-making, emotional mastery, strategic planning, and the rituals that shape high-performance leaders.Responding to 51 listener questions, Dwayne breaks down the “three pillars of progress,” the psychological layers of every problem, why decision-making is a muscle, and how fear, uncertainty, and overwhelm quietly sabotage performance.He shares the exact rituals he has used for decades—from weekly solitude planning to identity-based scheduling—and the transformative practice he credits with changing his life: think time.This episode is a masterclass in intentional living and high-performance leadership, blending mindset, structure, neuroscience, and real-world business wisdom. If you're navigating fast-moving environments, leading teams, or trying to build a more purposeful life, this conversation gives you a proven roadmap forward.Key Takeaways:Decision-making is a muscle—if you don't practice small decisions with process and ritual, big decisions will always overwhelm you.Your focus determines your emotional life—the meaning you attach to events shapes long-term joy or suffering.Rituals create identity and outcomes—weekly solitude planning, think time, and identity-based scheduling produce clarity and momentum.Strategic thinking requires cadence—yearly visioning, quarterly reviews, weekly planning, and daily recalibration.AI will disrupt faster than expected—leaders must systemize processes now to survive the shift.Self-love, vulnerability, and forgiveness are essential ingredients for emotional mastery and better decision-making.Quotes:“Decision making is a muscle .. and it's a skill set. And often times where we struggle is this area of making the tough and difficult decisions.”“What you ritualized in practice in private is rewarded in public.”“The business side of things should be a game. I mean, it should be fun most of the time.”"What is going to make you a happier and more joyful person, is attaching a different meaning to the events that happen in your life.”Resources Mentioned:Tony Robbins – “Three Pillars of Progress,” Date With Destiny program, life-planning philosophyStephen Covey – prioritization framework (A/B/C method)Waking Up App (Sam Harris) – meditation and mindfulnessChatGPT (Teams) – referenced as part of Dwayne's business infrastructureSOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) – foundational to AI-based workflow agentsIdentity-based scheduling – Dwayne's personal system (Chairman, Husband, Father, Student, etc.)Audio Timestamps:00:00 – How meaning, not outcomes, determines happiness and fulfillment.01:00 – Welcome, context for the live Q&A format, and session overview.02:00 – Framing the biggest listener questions around decisions, problems, and leadership.03:00 – The three pillars of progress and why focusing on problems makes them grow.05:00 – The three levels of a problem: external, internal, and psychological.07:00 – Why fear, uncertainty, and overwhelm stop people from making decisions.09:00 – Decision-making as a muscle and the importance of rituals for small decisions.12:00 – Managing overwhelm through physiology, breathing, and better questions.16:00 – Focus, meaning, and how emotional patterns shape leadership behavior.23:00 – Strategic thinking rituals: yearly visioning, quarterly...

Full Episode - Trump Is Exhibiting 25th Amendment Behavior + How To Get Money Out Of Politics For Good Chuck Todd takes a hard look at Donald Trump’s increasingly egregious behavior and the growing questions surrounding his cognitive fitness for the presidency, sparked by a recent post that crossed a line even for many on the right. He asks what would happen if any other public figure behaved this way, why similar concerns about Biden’s decline were openly discussed while Trump’s are often brushed aside, and whether the country is getting a straight story about the former president’s health. With no clear guardrails, no apparent filters, and staff either unable or unwilling to intervene, the episode raises uncomfortable but urgent questions about judgment, accountability, and risk. Then, Jeff Clements, CEO of American Promise joins Chuck for a deep dive into one of the most consequential—and misunderstood—threats to American democracy: money in politics. Clements argues that today’s campaign finance dysfunction isn’t a failure of legislation but a court-created crisis, tracing how Supreme Court rulings turned money into speech, opened massive loopholes, and shifted lawmaking power from Congress to the judiciary. From McCain-Feingold to super PACs, the conversation unpacks why courts have repeatedly blocked reform efforts and why the problem isn’t free speech itself, but the unchecked amplification that allows wealth to drown out everyone else. The discussion turns to whether a constitutional amendment is the only viable path forward, how such an amendment could reclaim authority from the courts, and what it would take to build support across 38 states. Drawing parallels to the Gilded Age and the founders’ obsession with corruption, Clements explains why Americans broadly understand the system is broken—even if it’s hard to make campaign finance a voting issue. In a moment of democratic crisis, he makes the case that meaningful reform is still possible, and that restoring political equality could become a rare point of unity in a deeply polarized era. Finally, Chuck gives his ToddCast Top 5 book recommendations for political junkies and answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.

In this episode, James tackles one of the most common challenges in sales: price objections. Rather than seeing price as the problem, James explains why objections are often a symptom of something deeper, misaligned expectations, unclear value, or unanswered questions earlier in the process.He breaks down the real reasons prospects push back on price and shows how better questioning, earlier qualification, and clearer value creation can prevent objections from arising in the first place. James also shares practical phrases and proven techniques, including layered responses and decision-framing strategies, to help you handle objections confidently and without immediately resorting to discounting.This episode equips you with a more structured, calm, and effective way to navigate price conversations and move deals forward with clarity.Key TakeawaysPrice objections often stem from budget constraints or misalignment, not the price itself.Strong questioning throughout the sales process helps uncover real concerns early.Clearly communicating value is essential to justifying your pricing.Layered responses allow you to listen, acknowledge, and address objections effectively.Not every prospect will value your solution equally, making qualification critical.Framing decisions clearly helps prospects understand the true cost of inaction.Sales shouldn't feel like guesswork.Get clear, proven tactics delivered weekly — no fluff, just results.If you want to close more and stress less, this is for you.

Preventive care isn't just a protocol — it's a belief system. In this episode of Tails from the Lab, Dr. Jennifer Lopez, Senior Professional Services Veterinarian at Antech™, shares how empathy, flexibility, and communication transform preventive care from a checklist into meaningful client conversations.

Listen now to hear Dr. Lopez's advice on: - Turning preventive care into purpose-driven conversations - Framing diagnostics around each client's “why” - Finding balance between clinical precision and compassionate communication - Building stronger partnerships through spectrum of care Featured guest: Dr. Jennifer Lopez on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifer-lopez-2823075/) Read her Wellness Blog Series on preventive care in the Antech Knowledge Lab.

Framing the picture is such a critical part of the overall impact of the shot on the audience!

Many salespeople lose the deal long before they speak, because the brain decides whether to trust you in seconds. In this episode of The Next Level Podcast, Jeremy Miner talks with René Rodriguez, bestselling author, keynote speaker, and expert in applying behavioral neuroscience to real-world sales situations. René explains why 93% of communication happens before the words leave your mouth, how tonality and body language trigger either safety or resistance in the brain, and how elite salespeople use framing, storytelling, and emotional tie-downs to guide a prospect's thinking without pressure. If you want to master human behavior, prevent objections before they happen, and sell the way the brain naturally buys, this conversation covers it all.   Chapters: (00:00) Introduction (02:10) René's Background in Neuroscience and Selling Change (07:26) How the Brain Makes Decisions (and Why Buyers Resist Change) (11:00) Tonality, Threat Detection, and the 93% Rule (14:52) Body Language, Congruency, and Subconscious Cues (20:11) How Elite Salespeople Prevent Objections (Not Handle Them) (26:12) Storytelling, Framing, and the Tie-Down Formula (33:58) Using Hand Gestures, Tone, and Presence to Increase Trust   Connect with René Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/learnwithrene/⁠ Website: ⁠https://www.meetrene.com/⁠ Amplify Your Influence Book: ⁠https://www.amplifybook.com⁠   Got a question about sales, persuasion, or objection handling?

Episode #445: Born in Yangon in 1984 and raised in the small town of Ye, Shakeel grew up as a Muslim in a deeply divided Myanmar. His childhood was shaped by the tension between his artistic passions and the restrictions of a conservative religious environment. When he began to draw, his relatives told him it was forbidden by faith. School brought little relief—there, Buddhist classmates bullied him with the slur “kalar,” while only a few offered friendship. Books and music became his refuge from isolation. In 2004, Shakeel began his career as a translator and editor at a sports journal. Despite his talent, he faced persistent discrimination from Buddhist colleagues who asked insulting questions about his faith. Feeling alienated, he resigned after a year. Later, at The Voice newspaper, prejudice again forced him out. “I decided I will never apply for a permanent job at a Burmese organization,” he recalls. Instead, he chose the independence of freelance journalism. Photography became his calling—a continuation of his early love for images. But soon after he turned to photojournalism full-time, Myanmar's 2021 coup changed everything. While documenting protests, Shakeel was arrested and tortured; his Muslim identity only made the physical abuse he suffered even harsher. Fleeing arrest, he escaped to Mae Sot, Thailand, where he continues his work documenting the conflict. Shakeel has witnessed harrowing scenes: airstrikes on civilians in Karenni State, families torn apart, children killed. Haunted by what he saw, he photographs the dead with reverence. “I always apologize to their souls,” he says, “and promise I will use these photos for justice.” Despite lingering prejudice, Shakeel finds hope in the unity of Myanmar's revolution. “All minorities sacrifice their lives for the country,” he says. “After the revolution, I hope we will live in a place with no discrimination, where everyone has the same opportunity.”

The Three Archetypes of American Global Strategy — Gaius & Germanicus — Gaius and Germanicus analyze the prospective American National Security Strategy for 2025–2026, framing it as a deliberate return to the "Trump corollary" of the Monroe Doctrine emphasizing hemispheric supremacy and regional sphere-of-influence arrangements. Germanicus categorizes American foreign policy history into three religious-like ideological visions: Washington'sisolationist "beacon on the hill," the Monroe-Adams "realm of liberty" (defensive empire protecting American interests), and the Jacksonian "Prometheus unbound" (universalist ideological expansion spreading democratic values). Germanicus argues the incoming administration systematically rejects the "Wilson to Biden" lineage of global interventionism and messianic crusading in favor of Theodore Roosevelt-style "flexible realism" emphasizing power, national interest, and transactional diplomacy. Gaius details this shifted strategy as consolidating American dominance in the Western Hemisphere and Pacific region while according Russia respect and a recognized sphere of influence in Eurasia, explicitly rejecting Cold War confrontationalism. Gaius documents that Kremlin leadership has explicitly welcomed this "flexible realism," viewing it as a geopolitical departure from perpetual adversarial Cold War mindset. Germanicus contrasts this transactional approach with the "Manichaean" moral crusades characterizing recent American foreign policy, suggesting the American public now explicitly favors strategy avoiding military entanglement while prioritizing domestic prosperity and economic reconstruction, mirroring isolationist sentiments following World War I. 1911 USS MAINE IN HAVANA HARBOR

In this Hot Topic episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott react to a recent article claiming dogs can be “autistic” — and unpack why this framing misunderstands both animals and neurodivergence. They discuss how natural behaviours in animals get mislabelled as “autistic traits,” why deficit-based language harms autistic people, and how ableist assumptions shape research across species.Together, they explore:How research bias leads to fear-based language like “risk” and “behavioural problems”Why neurodivergence is a natural evolutionary advantage, not a deficitThe danger of reinforcing stereotypes (e.g., “cats are autistic,” “hyper dogs are ADHD”)Why splitting neurodivergence into strict labels misses the bigger pictureHow science goes wrong when it assumes autism is a negative traitThe importance of autistic-led insight in neurodivergent researchThis is a funny, fiery, and thought-provoking take on what happens when good intentions collide with bad science — and why autistic voices must guide any conversation about neurodivergence, no matter the species.Our Sponsors:

Artsakh, also known as Nagorno-Karabakh, is a historic Armenian area located in the Caucasus Mountains. In 2023, Azerbaijan invaded and ethnically cleansed the millennial-old Armenian population. The so-called civilized West looked the other way. Looking away has been harder to do in Gaza because of the enormity of the Israeli attack and the sheer scale of death and destruction. The Israeli goal in Gaza and the Azerbaijani goal in Artsakh is cultural and physical erasure. Both Artsakh and Gaza are reported as though they are just happening in a vacuum. By not providing context and background, journalists are guilty of media malpractice. The recording was taken from a National Association for Armenian Studies and Research (NAASR)/ Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation Lecture Series on Contemporary Armenian Issues webinar, co-hosted and co-moderated by Marc A. Mamigonian, Director of Academic Affairs at NAASR, and Henry Theriault, PhD, Associate Provost at Worcester State University.

Why do Catholics look to the Pope and the Magisterium for ultimate authority, while Protestants look to Scripture alone—and what does that mean for everyday faith? Mark continues the “Why Protestantism?” series by examining the heart of the authority debate. He explains how Roman Catholicism understands the Pope, apostolic succession, sacred tradition, and the Magisterium, and why Catholics believe these provide an infallible guide for the Church. Mark then contrasts this with the Protestant conviction that the Bible alone is the final and sufficient authority for faith and life.Mark explores where these two systems diverge, why the Reformers rejected papal infallibility, and how the question of authority shapes everything—from doctrine, to worship, to the clarity of the gospel itself. This episode sets the stage for next week's focus on gospel clarity and why authority matters for every Christian.Episode Highlights00:00 — Framing today's question: who speaks with final authority in the Church? 02:14 — How Catholicism understands authority: Scripture, tradition, and the Magisterium 04:41 — Apostolic succession and why Catholics believe the Pope is Peter's successor 06:58 — What papal infallibility actually means (and what it doesn't) 10:08 — Ex cathedra teaching: when the Pope speaks infallibly 12:15 — Protestant concerns: where is the biblical basis for an infallible papacy? 14:02 — Why the Reformers insisted on sola Scriptura (Scripture alone) 16:40 — The practical implications: how these differences shape the Christian lifeResources:Cornerstone Church Sermons: Listen onlineGavin Ortlund, What It Means to Be Protestant (Truth Unites)Matthew Barrett, The Reformation as RenewalMichael Svigel, RetroChristianity: Reclaiming the Forgotten FaithChad Van Dixhoorn (ed.), Creeds, Confessions, and Catechisms: A Reader's EditionCatechism of the Catholic Church (Vatican)

 1. Best coaching advice you've gotten?Learn to be comfortable with silence—it creates space for clients to process.Silence isn't emptiness, it's presence that can be more powerful than words.Listening deeply reveals both verbal and non-verbal cues. 2. What are you still trying to improve about your coaching?Not jumping in too quickly when clients pause or hesitate.Allowing clients the time to fully process their own journey.Practicing “listen before you talk” as a lifelong discipline. 3. Most outrageous thing you've done, tried, or said in a coaching session?Being honest and naming observations clients may disagree with.Framing it as “putting something on the table” for exploration.Setting an agreement upfront that disagreement is not only okay, but welcome. 4. What still makes you squirm or uncomfortable in a coaching session?Few things do now, but violent or abusive disclosures would be a boundary.Acknowledges that's not his skill set and wouldn't want to “get past it.”Would always seek to refer a client to someone better suited. 5. If I were new to coaching, what advice would you have?Start with your why—if it's about “me” instead of the client, rethink it.Focus less on tools/templates and more on presence and service.Keep personal stories in check so sessions stay client-centered. 6. What is something you've had to conquer on your path to being a great coach?Letting go of self-criticism and unrealistic standards.Learning to give himself the same grace he gives clients.Remaining humble when impressive people place their trust in him. 7. Are you using AI in your coaching practice?Uses AI primarily for note-taking, freeing him to be fully present.Leverages AI responsibly—clients give permission and feel comfortable with it.Sees AI as another data point, not a replacement for human presence. 8. What have you learned about yourself through being a coach?To be less hard on himself and walk his own talk.That humility and patience grow with every client relationship.The “95% rule”: most people genuinely want to do the right thing.

Unsure about your niche... what it is or if you should switch it? That's exactly what we're getting into today. Your niche is one of those words that gets thrown around a lot, and it's the most misunderstood. Your niche isn't about looking through your strengths and areas of expertise and having to choose one with a Sophie's-Choice-like decision. That is NOT going to work, because a niche is actually one that leverages all of you. A niche is just an easier-to-digest word for brand positioning. It's the unique space you own in the market and in your ideal clients' minds. It defines who you help and the problem, and then connects those dots to you and the unique value of your consulting or coaching. And it's incredibly important, as it is the foundation for standing out in our crowded marketplace, which seems to get even more crowded with every layoff in these challenging times! The question becomes whether you should keep doing what you have been doing, stay on the path you have been on for a bit, or move on to something different. That's why I invited Brad Johnson onto the show. He is an executive performance coach and was in that very spot where he wanted to shift his focus. For the past few months, we have been trying to figure out where and how to focus his very unique combination of strengths, education, and personal story. If you're where Brad was, knowing you have something powerful to offer but struggle with your niche and want to get out of the back and forth that's happening in your mind, this is the episode for you. In This Episode, We Discuss What a niche really is and why most people define it wrong How to know when it's time to pivot or refine your niche The fears that come up around narrowing your focus (and why they're normal) The breakthrough moment that helped Brad land absolute clarity How niche clarity instantly improves networking, messaging, and sales conversations Where To Dive In (00:01) Discovering Your Niche(03:40) Career Evolution and Coaching Transition(11:28) Defining Your Coaching Niche(24:16) Identifying Ideal Client Breakthrough(28:13) Maximizing Business Performance Through Science(37:21) Client Discovery and Ideal Connections(43:45) Strategic Coaching Differentiation and Framing(55:12) Navigating Customized Coaching Solutions Next Steps Reflect on Your Own Niche Clarity Take 5 minutes to notice where your positioning feels foggy, confusing, or too broad. Awareness is the first step toward real clarity. Identify the Patterns in Your Best Clients Think about the clients you love working with — the ones who energize you and get the best results. Write down the common traits they share. Assess Where You Might Be the Bottleneck If your brand, message, or niche feels all over the place, ask yourself: “Am I avoiding narrowing down because it feels risky?” Get Support Instead of Spinning Your Wheels You don't need to figure this out alone.

During the Civil War, the utility and widespread availability of opium and morphine made opiates essential to wartime medicine. After the war ended, thousands of ailing soldiers became addicted, or “enslaved,” as nineteenth-century Americans phrased it. Veterans, their families, and communities struggled to cope with addiction's health and social consequences. Medical and government authorities compounded veterans' suffering and imbued the epidemic with cultural meaning by branding addiction as a matter of moral weakness, unmanliness, or mental infirmity. Framing addiction as “opium slavery” limited the efficacy of care and left many veterans to suffer needlessly for decades after the war ended.  Drawing from veterans' firsthand accounts as well as mental asylum and hospital records, government and medical reports, newspaper coverage of addiction, and advertisements, in Opium Slavery: Civil War Veterans and America's First Opioid Crisis (UNC Press, 2025) Dr. Jonathan S. Jones unearths the poorly understood stories of opiate-addicted Civil War veterans in unflinching detail, illuminating the war's traumatic legacies. In doing so, Jones provides critical historical context for the modern opioid crisis, which bears tragic resemblance to that of the post–Civil War era. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

We explore how a 1950s Harvard rat study reveals the power of hope, then turn it into three practical strategies to build belief: borrow confidence, recall rebounds, and practice self-cheering. Stories from training and obstacle races bring the ideas down to earth with clear, usable steps.• Why hope extends endurance and effort• Borrowing belief from trusted people when confidence is low• Turning past “sinks” into a rebound archive• Using physical examples to train mental courage• Practicing your own cheer with specific, repeatable reps• Framing wins by completion and growth, not placement• Setting a small challenge to build belief todayTake something away from every single one of our conversations and put it into practicehttps://aarondegler.com/

Are borders tyrannical or necessary? Returning guest Chris Polk helps us dismantle the political theater around immigration and ask what allegiance to Jesus looks like when the state shows up with masks and rifles. From truck-stop stories to John 4, they explore why restricting movement may be the worst tyranny and how ordinary neighbor love beats team-red/blue fear. Chris argues both parties fed the ICE machine, shares a Cuban car rescue story that needed no papers, and reminds us that Jesus walked through Samaria, not around it. If Mary and Joseph fled Herod today, would we demand their passports? They dig into: Why “do something!” turns into state violence Borders as cages that keep you in vs. others out The Good Samaritan as the “Good Immigrant” Cop-aganda and qualified immunity “Would Jesus follow the law?” when the law crushes the least

What is the secret to 15 years of trust and slow, ethical work inside the Hutterite communities? Canadian photographer Tim Smith shows us exactly how he built the deep, long-term relationships that define his career. Tim spent years immersed in these communal, traditional societies across the Canadian Prairies, perfecting a slow-work philosophy that allows him to portray their lives with the depth and nuance they deserve. His images have appeared in major magazines, including National Geographic, and his work has been exhibited in many countries to date. In this warm and honest talk, we dive into the challenges of that commitment. Tim opens up about why he now questions the pressure of the "all-in" photojournalism lifestyle and the essential need to prioritize family life. Hear about his wonderful crazy new project “Chaff”, the secret joy of eating supper in a combine during harvest, listen to some wonderful stories about the amazing Hutterite communities, where we talk about emotional moments or have a good laugh too of course. Hit play for a masterclass in wonderful patient and empathetic documentary work. Enjoy it! *****
