Gods do whatever the fuck they want.They operate outside the bounds of “normal” society. They make their own rules, they follow the beat of their own drum.They think big and they think wild. They shape the worlds around them.They don't wait for permission or consult a rulebook. They live from their heart-and-cock compass.In this episode:5 steps to ascend from boy to man to god Huge hearts and weighty cocks Manhandling vs. boy-handling vs. god-handling The clitoris is to boys what the cervix is to men 5 components to sexual mastery that all gods have sorted NEWS: Christian man starts male-only gym because titties made him do it Why honey pots work on 99.9% of mere mortals Owning your cock and self-actualization of said cock Gaining an inch in length and in girth “Let them eat clit and prematurely ejaculate” said Marie Antoinette ​​​​​​​​

Uptin Saeedi spent years as a CNBC producer, where he launched the network's international YouTube channel in 2016 and quietly noticed something awkward: the videos he shot on his own iPhone in selfie mode outperformed the ones made with a professional crew. Then the pandemic hit, he was laid off, and he had to decide whether a million-view brand name meant anything without the brand.In this episode, Uptin is specific about why he spent his severance on an editor from day one, how PR consulting in the mornings let him make content in the afternoons with no financial pressure, and how a single LinkedIn message turned into a Dubai agency he never meant to start and later sold. Plus the reason his agency deliberately had no Instagram or TikTok, why he once unfollowed Gary Vee and then told him so to his face, and his rules for delivery: trim 30% of the script, never say "hey guys", and talk like you're speaking to one person.Topics covered: starting from zero · consistency · funding the early days · accidental agencies · scaling down · hustle culture · the craft of a good story

What if the reason you keep starting over has nothing to do with your discipline and everything to do with the way you set your goals? In this episode, I break down the subtle moment most people don't even notice, the moment your brain decides the work is done. And it's exactly why results don't last, habits fall off, and you find yourself right back where you started.Why Your Brain Stops Working After You Hit a GoalOur minds are designed to complete tasks.Think about things like:filing your taxesfinishing a projectpublishing something you've been working onThe moment it's done… you stop.And the same thing happens with weight loss.If your goal is “I want to lose 20 pounds”The moment you hit that number, your brain says “We're done.”And that's where the cycle begins again.The Hidden Problem with Outcome-Based GoalsWhen your goals are focused on outcomes, they come with an endpoint.And once that endpoint is reached:your consistency fadesyour habits loosenyour identity doesn't actually changeThis is why results don't last.Because the goal was never designed to.The Shift That Changes Everything: IdentityInstead of focusing on what you want to achieve, I invite you to focus on who you want to become.Instead of “I want to lose 20 pounds”.Shift to “I am becoming the person who lives like someone 20 pounds lighter.”Now your focus shifts to:your daily habitsyour routinesyour energyyour lifestyleAnd that doesn't end.Why I Don't Start with the ScaleThis is why I often ask my clients not to weigh themselves in the beginning.Because the scale creates emotional reactions:When it goes down:“It's working!”“I deserve a reward”When it goes up:“It's not working”“What's the point?”And in both cases, the behavior stays the same.The Dopamine Trap of ProgressThere's another layer most people don't realize.When you:share your progressget complimentshear “you look amazing”You get a dopamine hit.And your brain interprets that as “We already got the reward.”So you unconsciously:slow downreward yourself in ways that don't serve youstop doing what actually created the changeThis Isn't Something You FinishThis work isn't about completing something.There is no finish line.Because real change is:something you livesomething you embodysomething you continueIt's not about hitting a number.It's about becoming someone new.Download my free guide, Calm the Craving: 7 Steps to Break Emotional and Binge Eating, and finally end the cycle of out-of-control eating: www.sherryshaban.comWork With Sherry Shaban:Book your FREE 30-minute Food Freedom Call and start your journey to lasting change! www.sherryshabanfitness.com/clarityListen & SubscribeCatch more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube so you never miss an episode!Connect & Go DeeperJoin our Facebook Community: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.comWork with Sherry: www.sherryshaban.com/transformExplore more resources: www.makepeacewithfood.comShare Your TakeawayTag us on Instagram (@makepeacewithfoodofficial), Facebook (@MakePeaceWithFoodOfficial), TikTok (@sherryshaban), or LinkedIn (sherryshaban) and share your biggest insight from this episode!

This week's briefing explores three of the biggest stories shaping construction.First, we examine the first signs that the data centre boom may be beginning to moderate. Planning activity dipped in June, several high profile projects have been cancelled or withdrawn, and local opposition is increasingly influencing what gets built. We look at what the latest data really says, and whether this is simply a pause or the start of a broader shift.Next, we unpack Arcadis' latest International Construction Costs report, why UK construction has become one of the most expensive markets in the world, and how the balance of power may be shifting from clients to contractors.Finally, we revisit the AI pricing battle as new models, open weight releases and changing enterprise economics reshape the market. We also discuss Microsoft's warning on AI, data ownership and what construction businesses should be thinking about before committing to long term AI strategies.Plus, we cover Monumental's $32M funding round, TerraFirma's $100M Series A, and the business lessons from NFL quarterback Jake Browning's demolition company.

“I just want to get it right the first time.”I cannot tell you how many times someone has reached out to me for branding services when they don't even have a business yet. They don't want to make mistakes. They want everything to be perfect right out of the gate.And, yeah, don't we all? It's hard and scary to put something out there that you don't feel is finished or tested. It can feel like setting yourself up for failure, and most humans are always trying very hard to avoid failure.As we're talking about focus this summer, I'm hearing a version of it from people all the time. They don't feel clear enough yet to know where to focus. They want to nail their messaging, their offer, their one-liner before they ever put it out there. And of course, there is work you can and should do up front. But it's not going to be perfect.The only way to actually perfect your message, your offer, your one-liner so that it resonates with your ideal clients is to get out there and say it to a lot of real people. Today I want to talk about the clarity that comes from taking action before you feel ready.Sponsored by Squarespace:Free Guide to Squarespace Circle: nobsmastery.com/squarespaceTune into this episode to hear:Why clarity requires getting out of your head and connecting with other peopleWhy there is no such thing as getting it right once and foreverHow real-world data about your business can surprise you Why you need real clients to work with when you're designing your processHow spinning your wheels chasing perfection literally costs you moneyResources:Grab the first chapter of my new book Scale Solo: scalesolobook.comProgram: No BS Mastery: https://nobsmastery.com/programThe Price to Freedom Calculator™ - http://nobsmastery.com/priceGrab a copy of my book: Badass Your Brand - https://www.badassyourbrand.com/Program: No BS Agency Mastery: https://join.nobsmastery.com/agency-masteryNo BS Clients Lab: https://nobsclientslab.com/

They share the story of a member who gained back 30 pounds through a brutal year and just hit her goal again, dig into why goal weight was never really a number, and explain why community might be the most underrated weight loss tool there is.This episode aligns with Day 87 of our Spring 2026 weight loss program.

He shares how that moment began to unravel everything he thought he knew about himself, his identity, and even his faith.Together, Jerrad and Granger talk about what it means to move from simply knowing Christian language to truly tasting the goodness of God, why “I've always been a Christian” may be a warning sign, and how God sometimes strips away the very things we use to feel secure so that we can finally see Him clearly.Granger also shares why he eventually walked away from country music, what it looks like to serve in ministry now, and the heart behind his book Poison in the Well, written for those stuck in nominal Christianity.CONTENT NOTEThis episode includes discussion of child loss, drowning, grief, suicidal thoughts, and spiritual darkness.

From a childhood spent silently repeating the same ritual to the exposure-therapy technique he uses today, this is a rawer, funnier, more specific conversation about mental health than most recovery episodes get to.In this episode:· Why Christian calls "the phone" the biggest addiction he has left· Tyler's own confession: the MTV audition he blew because he "took a bunch of Adderall and couldn't communicate"· Gaining 30 pounds in rehab on vending-machine food and a hot dog cut into three pieces· The moment he calls "the most powerful" of his life — getting sober and "meeting God"· Why the first two years of sobriety were the hardest, and his advice: "just power through"· The childhood OCD ritual: the same words, repeated 25 times a day, for years· How he learned to "label the thought" instead of drowning in it — the technique he still uses· The twist almost nobody talks about: "that's when the OCD really came on," after he got sober· How his girlfriend Saskia pulled him out of a depression he was hiding from everyone· Building a 2.7-million-follower audience, and why he once stepped away from it completelyGuest: Christian Vierling, actor and content creator (2.7M+ TikTok) known for comedy sketches with his girlfriend, Saskia.Host: Tyler Ramsey.

What does real salvation look like in your life? In this devotion from Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster takes us through Acts chapter 2 and Acts chapter 9 in the KJV to show us evidence of salvation that simply cannot be denied.You might be asking: Does baptism really matter after I get saved? What does a steadfast believer actually look like? Can I call myself a Christian if I never fellowship with other believers? What happened when the early church gathered together?Pastor Webster walks us through the powerful moment at Pentecost when Peter preached and three thousand souls received the word and were baptized the very same day. But receiving Christ was just the beginning. These early believers continued steadfastly in the apostles doctrine, in fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayer. Their salvation showed.Key points from this devotion:- Gaining the whole world means nothing if you lose the Savior- Repentance and baptism are both part of the obedient response to the gospel- Three thousand souls were saved, baptized, and added to the church in one day- The early church was marked by unity, steadfastness, and shared life- Real salvation produces visible, lasting change in how we live and gatherIf this devotion blessed you, please like, comment, share, and subscribe so more people can hear the Word of God.Stay connected with GNBC:

The problem might not be your discipline. It might be your gut. We expose why most probiotics may be dead before they reach you, how glyphosate wipes out your good bacteria, the hidden gut-brain link, and why a damaged microbiome makes belly fat almost impossible to lose. If you've been blaming yourself for symptoms you can't shake, this one changes everything. Talking Points & Questions Opening: Is it true someone can eat clean, exercise daily, and still have their gut secretly causing belly fat, brain fog, and inflammation? The probiotic problem Most probiotics die before reaching the gut. Are millions wasting money on fake probiotics? Why do so many people get more bloated and sick after taking probiotics? What's the biggest lie the probiotic industry has sold consumers? Food supply & warning signs What are the biggest warning signs your gut is poisoning your body before disease shows up? Glyphosate kills good bacteria but lets harmful bacteria survive. Is modern food destroying our microbiome? Gut, belly fat & the brain Can a damaged microbiome make it almost impossible to lose stubborn belly fat? What's the connection between gut bacteria, brain fog, anxiety, low motivation, and depression? Longevity & stress Microbiome diversity predicts longevity. What are most people doing daily that's quietly shortening their lifespan? Stress lowers stomach acid and can lead to SIBO. Could chronic stress alone be wrecking millions of guts? The fix With belly fat, cravings, fatigue, constipation, skin problems, or brain fog, what's the first thing you'd fix in their gut? If everyone watching had to do one thing daily to repair their microbiome, what would it be?

Self-awareness is supposed to make love easier — so why doesn't it? In this episode of I Think I Like You, Clara explores the paradox so many high-achieving, independent women face: years of personal growth and self-work, but relationships still feel just out of reach. She breaks down why "cocooning" and rest matter before re-entering the dating pool, how avoidance around health, mortality, and intimacy quietly shapes our relationship patterns, and what it really means to move from doing to being in the pursuit of love. If you've ever felt behind in dating despite having your life together everywhere else, this episode offers a different way to think about timing, readiness, and the inner work that actually moves the needle.Key Topics:The paradox of self-awareness and relationship challenges among independent womenThe importance of "cocooning" and self-care before pursuing love activelyMoving from doing to being in the pursuit of loveThe influence of societal and internal pressures to "catch up" by a certain ageStrategies to understand genuine desires versus fears-driven actionsTimestamps: 00:00 - Introduction: The high-achiever's paradox in love00:28 - Self-awareness vs. relationship struggles01:22 - Embracing summer and prioritizing outside activity01:48 - The benefits of weightlifting and community classes for mental clarity02:17 - Juggling parenting, deadlines, and personal growth02:47 - Inspiration behind the episode: conversations with women in early 30s03:13 - The desire for independence versus societal pressure to date03:43 - The importance of knowing yourself in your 30s and beyond04:12 - Navigating chaotic early 30s and establishing identity outside work04:41 - The internal conflict: living fully now vs. fear of missing out05:10 - The challenge of dating apps and perceived "behindness"05:42 - Balancing enjoying the present with societal expectations06:09 - The reality of the dating process and emotional avoidance06:39 - Success story: meeting a partner after healing and reflection07:35 - The importance of cocooning and self-care before entering the dating scene08:04 - The power of internal clarity and self-understanding08:33 - Overcoming the wiring to plan and strategize in emotional intimacy09:20 - Recognizing avoidance behaviors in dating efforts09:50 - The different forms of action: doing vs. being10:17 - Facing fears and disillusionment in dating10:44 - Common experiences: flaky dates, lingerers, and ghosting11:27 - Gaining insight through clarity and inner work11:56 - Personal reflections: health screenings and fears of mortality12:23 - Confronting avoidance of self-care and life planning13:15 - Naming fears around mortality and intimacy14:12 - Moving forward through clarity and action14:42 - Connecting fears to relationship patterns and living authentically15:11 - Reflection questions for inner work on relationship fears16:14 - The timeline of meeting a partner and life stages16:41 - The benefits of patience and self-knowledge in love17:29 - The societal pressures of youth and relationship timelines18:04 - Authentic reasons to pursue love and relationship readiness18:59 - The significance of inner work over external actionConnect with Clara:InstagramWebsite

“Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your family of believers all over the world is going through the same kind of suffering you are.” (1 Peter 5:8–9 NLT) In our next set of devotions, we’re going to look at considering the cost of following Jesus. The first cost we’ll consider is the spiritual enemy we gain when we start to live for Christ. Anyone who has ever experienced the Christian life knows it is the greatest life there is. God takes a life that was empty, aimless, and headed to a certain judgment, and He turns it around and transforms it. He removes all our sin. That’s more than enough right there, but then He puts the righteousness of Jesus Christ into our spiritual bank account. That’s called justification. He removes the guilt that haunted us, fills the emptiness inside us, and takes up residence in our hearts. This all comes as a result of the gospel being believed and followed. That’s the good news. The bad news is that there are some new problems that come along with all of that. You get rid of an old set of problems and inherit new ones. As the great Bible commentator Ray Stedman once remarked, “A Christian is one who is: Completely fearless, Continually cheerful, and Constantly in trouble.” Once you become a Christian, you gain a very aggressive adversary who has set his crosshairs on you. That adversary is the devil, Satan, and he wants to undermine you. He wants to bring you down. The Bible warns that “everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution” (2 Timothy 3:12 NLT). To “suffer persecution” means to be hunted, to be harassed. We need to be aware of this so that we’re not surprised when attacks come. The Christian life isn’t a playground; it’s a battleground. I think a lot of people believe in a watered-down gospel, and thus they have a watered-down faith that isn’t really faith at all. They’ve heard so many sermonettes that they’ve turned into Christianettes. They’re not prepared for spiritual battle. We must not make that mistake. We need to understand who we’re up against. The apostle Peter wrote, “Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8 NLT). There’s no need to panic. But we must come to terms with the reality that if we live a godly life, persecution will follow. We need to prepare ourselves for the inevitable attacks. We need to strengthen our areas of vulnerability. We need to stay close to the Lord through prayer and Bible study. Our enemy is formidable, but he can be resisted. God has equipped us with everything we need to stand strong against the devil. Reflection question: What are the best strategies for standing strong against our spiritual enemy?

If you've been eating less, exercising more, and still experiencing unwanted body changes, this episode is for you. Natalie Jill, a Licensed Master Sports Nutritionist and functional fitness trainer, joins Dr. Stephanie for a peer-to-peer conversation between two women in the fitness industry who have seen the same broken patterns and concluded that the plan most women follow is not suitable for them. Natalie's journey from rock bottom to 13 magazine covers in her 40s and 50s was not due to a better diet plan, but rather a complete overhaul of her False Assumed Truths (F.A.T.). She discusses the mechanics behind why chronic cardio is counterproductive in midlife, the accelerating bone loss caused by ellipticals, the falsehood of three sets of twelve, and the necessity of changing beliefs before any protocol can work. This rare episode features two practitioners in the same space, with the same audience, comparing notes honestly.

What does it take to photograph elite athletes pushing their bodies to the point of collapse, or freeze the motion of cars hurtling by at speeds that blur the line between control and catastrophe? Two of our favorite recent podcasts went deep inside those worlds: one with Phil Penman and Kristof Ramon on the brutal beauty of competitive cycling, and the other with Camden Thrasher and Jamey Price on the relentless sensory overload that comes with photographing motor sports. While our video podcast studio gets its finishing touches, we're revisiting our archive for an encore that pairs the best of both sports—from the many stages of suffering baked into professional cycling to the wild mix of visual stimulation and sleep deprivation that comes with shooting a 24-hour endurance race.

Guest Bios: British-born, New York-based photographer Phil Penman has documented the ever-changing scene of New York City's streets for more than 25 years. and he has quite a bit of experience in the world of professional cycling himself. In his career as a news and magazine photographer, Phil has photographed major public figures and historical events. His reportage following the 9/11 terrorist attack was featured in major print publications and media broadcasts worldwide, and his work covering New York City's pandemic lockdown is in the collection of the U.S. Library of Congress. In addition to exhibiting at Leica galleries in New York, Washington, D.C., Boston, and London, Phil's signature street photography has appeared in international exhibitions as far afield as Venice, Berlin, and Sydney. He also tours the world teaching photo workshops for Leica Akademie. Phil's books, "Street" published in 2019, and "New York Street Diaries" published in 2023 both became best-sellers and have been featured at New York's Museum of Modern Art. Kristof Ramon is a pro-cycling photographer who covers some of the world's most prestigious races, including the Tour de France, the Giro d' Italia, the Tour of Flanders and Paris Roubaix. Born and raised in Belgium, Kristof discovered photography while attending film school at age 19. He eventually followed his passion for cycling and photography and has focused exclusively on this sport since 2011. Working under the name Kramon, his talent for storytelling and his ability to capture the atmosphere and raw emotion of racing makes his images stand out from typical race photography. Kristof's reputation has earned him the respect and trust of many of the biggest racing teams and riders - which is why he's able to capture such extraordinary in-between moments and behind-the-scenes images. The riders are always his primary focus, as evidenced in his close-up portraits of racers caked in sweat, mud, dust, snow, and grime. Kristof's first book, The Art of Suffering, was released in June 2024 by Laurence King Publishing. Camden Thrasher is a motor sports photographer with a distinctive ability to capture unique scenes of fast action. Growing up in Vancouver, Washington, it was the sound of engines from a nearby racetrack that first drew him to motor sports. After becoming a fixture at the track with his camera during high school, Camden studied automotive design and engineering in college, expecting to work as an engineer or on a pit crew. But the money he was making as a side hustle with his camera convinced him to stick with photography, and he hasn't looked back since. Using a unique slow shutter speed method, perfected over many exposures, Camden revels in showcasing the abstract qualities of gleaming metal, bright lights, and dynamic action that are hallmarks of this sport. Now based out of Atlanta, Georgia, Camden's work has been commissioned by top racing teams and featured in a wide range of media, from print magazines to automotive branding campaigns. Jamey Price is an automotive photographer based in Charlotte, North Carolina, whose motor sports work has taken him to more than 25 countries, and across most of the continental US. Jamey's photography career began while he was competing as a thoroughbred horse racing jockey and exercise rider. During this time, he completed more than 50 races, notching 11 wins in the saddle. His life in horse racing was eventually compiled into the self-published book Chasing: Racing Life in England & Ireland. Yet, in 2011, Jamey's photography career switched from horses to horse-power. Since he began chasing race cars, his images have been published worldwide in magazines, distributed by sports imagery wire services, and featured by top commercial clients. Additionally, Jamey is a LEXAR Elite Artist, since 2014.
