How do you prepare your mindset and create the discipline to be effective every single day? That's what Jeff Velez asked on a recent Ask Jeb episode, and it's the question that separates the pros from the amateurs in sales. Sales is the hardest profession in business. It's the only job where you have to go out and find rejection and bring it home every single day. Every ask you make carries the potential to be rejected at a deep, painful level. That's why we get paid so well. And that's why most people can't hack it. But the ones who do? They've figured out the secret. Find Your Carrot My friend Will Fratini from ZoomInfo nailed it when he talked about what motivates him, or his carrot. His five-year-old daughter once bought him a carrot Christmas ornament, and he carries it with him everywhere as a reminder of why he shows up every day. But here's what matters: Your carrot needs to be specific and tangible. Not some vague "I want to be successful" nonsense. I'm talking about something real. A commission check of X dollars. A boat. Generational wealth through real estate. A college fund for your kids. Think of it like an old-time horse and carriage. You put a carrot on a stick in front of a stubborn horse, and suddenly it'll go forward even when it thinks it can't. That's what your carrot does for you when everyone else is giving up. Your carrot is what pushes you past the point where giving up would be completely justified. It's what separates the best from the rest. The Hard Truth About Sales Discipline Let's be clear about what sales discipline actually means. You have to show up every day and do a certain number of activities. Every. Single. Day. Consistently. And in order to do those hard things consistently, you need that carrot. It's about sacrificing what you want now (which is easy) for what you want most (which requires doing hard things). I want to do things that are easy. But in order to get what I want most, I've got to do things that are hard. That's the entire game. The Scottie Scheffler Example Look at Scottie Scheffler, the PGA golfer. When he makes a bogey, he bounces back with a birdie or better 62 percent of the time. The rest of the field? Less than 18 percent. Why? Because Scheffler is crystal clear about what's important to him. He knows his carrot. He understands what fulfillment means. When something goes wrong, there's no cascade of "everything is wrong." His ego doesn't take a hit because he's focused on what matters most. He picks himself back up, brushes himself off, and keeps moving. But here's what most people don't know: It wasn't always this way. When he first brought on his caddie, Ted Scott, Ted told him straight up: "I'm not working for you unless you get the attitude, temper, and anger under control." Think about that. The caddie refused to work with him unless he fixed his mindset first. That's how important mindset in sales really is. Everything else comes after. Your Visual Cue Go get yourself a carrot ornament. Seriously. Find one on Amazon, hang it in your office, and use it as your visual cue for what matters most. When you're sitting at your desk in the morning trying to get started, or when something has gone wrong and you're trying to bounce back, that carrot will remind you why you chose this soul-sapping profession in the first place. Because maybe the only thing harder than sales is golf. But you chose it. Now own it. The Secret Superpower Here's the bonus that Will dropped that's pure gold: Sometimes your carrot isn't even about you. Sometimes the ultimate sales superpower is genuinely helping someone else be the star of the show. The best sellers in the world don't care about how great their product is. They care about making their customer the hero. If you genuinely believe you're there to help someone else's day get better, you're going to come through. And when you have that extra little carrot hanging th...
Dr. Shila Patel, a retired psychiatrist, has made significant contributions to the field of mental health empowerment through her writing and multimedia engagement. Her work, available on her website, www.drshilapatel.com, includes three influential books, podcasts, and videos that aim to help individuals take control of their mental well-being. Dr. Patel's perspective on mental health empowerment emphasizes understanding the complex interplay of societal, relational, and familial dynamics, especially in the context of pre- and post-COVID situations. She advocates for the acceptance of differing viewpoints, addressing anger and fractured relationships, and recognizes the role of open communication in families and the broader community to foster a more empathetic and harmonious society.(00:00:48) Unveiling Mental Health through Personal Narratives(00:09:10) Decline of Genuine Human Connections due to Social Media(00:12:09) Mental Health Discourse Revolutionized by Internet(00:16:09) Digital Overload: Disconnecting for Mental Wellness(00:31:47) Self-Accountability in Sexual Assault Prevention(00:36:57) Regressive Steps in Women's Reproductive Rights(00:44:14) Promoting Informed Media Consumption for Positivity(00:52:51) Modeling Self-Responsible Behavior for Society's Well-being(00:59:24) Empowering Future Generations through Honest Communication(00:01:55) "Maintain one great thing between yourself, people and everything, and that's a healthy relationship." - Jr Sparrow(00:10:40) "People have become self-centered.

Why are so many healthcare providers burned out, overworked, and underpaid—despite dedicating their lives to helping others? In part one of this powerful two-part conversation, Dr. Lauryn sits down with Kiera Dent, CEO and founder of The Dental A Team, to uncover the root causes of financial and emotional burnout across chiropractic, dentistry, and other healthcare professions. Together, they dig into why so many doctors feel “broke,” overwhelmed, and disconnected from their purpose, and what needs to change in how we approach business and balance in the healthcare world.Lauryn and Kiera dive deep into the shared challenges facing modern clinicians: massive student debt, a lack of business training, and the generational shift in what work-life balance really means. They discuss how to identify where burnout truly comes from, why profit margins matter more than ever, and how to reclaim your sense of purpose without sacrificing success. Whether you're a chiropractor, dentist, or any healthcare entrepreneur—this conversation will remind you that you're not alone and help you start rewriting your professional story.Key Takeaways:Burnout isn't just emotional—it's financial. Many healthcare professionals are struggling because their businesses lack healthy profit margins and sustainable structures.Generational shifts are reshaping success. Millennials and Gen Z are rejecting outdated scripts of overwork and redefining what true balance and fulfillment look like in healthcare.Business is business—even in healthcare. Doctors need to learn core entrepreneurial and leadership skills to thrive, not just survive, in private practice.You're not alone. Whether you're a dentist, chiropractor, or vet, the struggles of burnout, money stress, and purpose fatigue are universal—and solvable.About the Guest:Kiera Dent is the CEO and founder of The Dental A Team, where she and her team consult with hundreds of dental practices nationwide. Drawing on her experience in nearly every role within a dental office, Kiera helps teams streamline systems, elevate accountability, and boost profitability while still living their best lives.

Guest: Lanier Isom, journalist and author of Grace and Grit: How I Won My Fight at Goodyear and Beyond - the life story of Lilly Ledbetter Film: Lilly - based on the book, now available on Amazon. Key Lilly Ledbetter Quotes: On Pay Negotiation and Career Planning "Your first job is very important because even though you're not even thinking about retirement, how much you pay is gonna determine, you know, the health of your retirement. So you have to be able to negotiate pay." Key Messages About Lilly Ledbetter's Story •Lilly Ledbetter is an Alabama native from Possum Trot, Alabama, who became the namesake of President Obama's first piece of legislation: The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act •The film Lilly had its world premiere at the 2024 Hamptons International Film Festival •Blue Harbor Entertainment released Lilly exclusively in theaters in May 2025 •The story represents an important fight for equal pay and fair treatment in the workplace About Lanier Isom's Journey as a Writer •Lanier grew up in Birmingham with parents who loved books, art, and surrounded themselves with creative people •She graduated from Sophie Newcomb (women's college within Tulane University) in 1987 with an English degree •After struggling to find work with her degree, she sold children's shoes before getting her master's at UAB in English •She taught for over 11 years at Altamont School and Mountain Brook High School •Transitioned through PR work, magazine editing at Birmingham Home and Garden Magazine, and eventually freelance writing •Key insight: "Every job I've ever had, I had no idea. I was not trained to do it... I knew how to learn. A humanities education taught me how to learn. So I just learned on the job." How Lanier Met Lilly •In 2009, when President Obama signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act, Lanier's husband suggested the story •When Lanier first called Lilly, she was overwhelmed with media attention and said: "I'm up to my knees in alligators" and hung up •Lanier gathered her courage, called back, and interviewed Lilly for a magazine article •This became the beginning of their relationship and eventually the book •Lanier's belief: "As writers, as artists... the universe, I could not have planned that." On Women's Issues and Generational Context •Lanier was exposed to women's studies at Tulane, which was very important to her development •She was raised by a second-wave feminist mother who struggled as a newly divorced woman in the 1970s trying to find work and support her children •Generational challenge: Women of their generation (born in the 1960s) were not taught about business, negotiating salaries, or thinking about pay and money •"Money talk was not something very comfortable for me" •This lack of education about financial negotiation directly connects to Lilly's message about the importance of advocating for fair pay On the Power of Writing and Art •Writing as transformation: "Writing is so powerful and the arts are so powerful that that's the first thing people want to shut down when there's fascism on the horizon." •Writing creates change: "Art and writing can literally shift people's consciousness, their awareness. It can create a sense of humanity, of empathy, of understanding, of connection that is threatening to people who don't want a world like that." •Political power: "It can shift, it can become a political shift." •Writing can be empowering whether it's journaling, book writing, articles, or copywriting On the Creative Process •Lanier emphasizes the importance of being in flow and alignment while creating •"The best part is when you are in the flow and you are aligned and you know that something good, not necessarily important, but good and important is coming through." •The value is in the process: "You had that moment in alignment that is far more important than the outcome." •"It is very hard not to live in the outcomes. I mean, we're just human." •Balance needed: As artists, the creative meditation is valuable, but if it's your livelihood, you also need to consider practical outcomes •Writing and art are forms of meditation and ways to get out of the daily grind while serving a purpose On Being a Writer •Shared quote: "A writer is someone who basically must be left alone to write, but wants a cult following." •"You gotta get out and do the dog and pony show if you get a cult following." •"I need a lot of time to myself, but if it's only for myself, what good is it?" Suggestions for Listeners For Aspiring Writers 1.Learn on the job - A humanities education teaches you how to learn; apply that skill to whatever work you pursue 2.Start writing - Take a breath, center your energy, and let it flow through you 3.Keep the spirit of play - Try new techniques and approaches without pressure 4.Value the creative process - The moment of alignment and flow is more important than the outcome 5.Balance solitude and sharing - Writers need alone time to create, but must also share their work with the world For Women and Career Development 1.Learn to negotiate pay early - Your first job's salary impacts your entire career and retirement 2.Don't be afraid to talk about money - Overcome the discomfort around discussing compensation 3.Advocate for yourself - Lilly's story shows the importance of standing up for fair treatment 4.Share stories - Especially share Lilly Ledbetter's story with other women who need to know how her perseverance is still helping everyone today For Personal Growth 1.Trust your gut instincts - When you know something is important, pursue it 2.Gather your courage - Even when someone hangs up on you (literally or figuratively), call back 3.Stay open to the universe - Sometimes the best opportunities come in unexpected ways 4.Use creativity as empowerment - Whether through journaling, writing, or any form of expression, creativity can shift consciousness For Supporting the Arts 1.Recognize the power of art - The arts can create empathy, understanding, and connection 2.Support artists and writers - Their work is essential for maintaining a vibrant, empathetic society 3.Understand why arts are threatened - When fascism is on the horizon, art and writing are the first things shut down because they threaten oppressive systems Where to Find Lanier Isom •Website: lanierisam.com (see all her work and articles) •Instagram: @LanerIso •Substack: "A Little Bit of This and That" - •Other work: Al Jazeera, LA Times, Huffington Post, Salvation South, The Bitter Southerner, and frequent contributor to Inside Climate News Awards and Recognition •Alabama Library Association Nonfiction Award •2023 Fellowship from the Alabama State Council on the Arts •Awards from Alabama Media Professionals and the National Federation of Press Women Call to Action •Watch the film Lilly (available on Amazon) •Read Grace and Grit by Lanier Isom •Share Lilly Ledbetter's story with other women •Follow Lanier on Substack for more insights on writing, social justice, and Alabama stories •Support the arts and recognize their power to create social change Schedule a Spiritual Upgrade Breakthrough Call and let's talk about your Soul's purpose.

In this episode of Tech It To The Limit, hosts Sarah Harper and Elliot Wilson revisit generational myths in digital health and reveal why age isn't the real barrier to adoption. Through their new game, Fact Check Fever, and a deep dive into the Capability-Motivation-Context (CMC) framework, they show how design, usability, and trust matter far more than birth year. From busting stereotypes to exploring how health systems can design with users, not for them, it's a witty, insightful look at the future of inclusive, human-centered innovation.Key TakeawaysGenerational myths don't hold up: Boomers use portals, Gen Z cares about privacy, and every group struggles with clunky design, not just “digital natives.”Design trumps demographics: Adoption isn't about age, it's about usability, accessibility, and human-centered design.Follow the CMC framework: Capability, motivation, and context, not birth year, to predict whether people engage with health tech.Health equity requires intention: Neutral AI does not exist; equity has to be actively built into technology.The biggest unifier isn't age: A diagnosis, condition, or shared health journey brings people together across generations more than labels like Boomer or Gen Z.In this episode:[00:00:13] Welcome & episode introduction[00:00:55] Recap of Mayo Clinic live show[00:02:36] Looking ahead to HLTH: speakers, tracks, and the health tech “fashion week” vibe[00:05:08] Conference tracks & awards00:07:13] Launching Fact Check Fever: busting myths on portals, EHR burnout, Gen Z TikTok habits, and more[00:07:37] Fact Check Fever: generational myths & data[00:19:24] Break for fake sponsor: Patient Portal Plus Plus[00:20:44] Sincere segment: CMC framework for health tech adoption[00:22:24] Deep dive: CMC framework explained[00:31:17] Designing with, not for, users[00:35:31] Break for fake sponsor: Bias Focals[00:37:14] Spicy Nugs: co-host lightning round[00:46:41] Closing thoughts, HLTH call-to-action, and Elliot's health tech haikuResourcesTech It To The Limit PodcastWebsite Apple PodcastSarah HarperLinkedIn -https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahbethharperElliott WilsonLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewelliottwilson
EDITORS NOTE: There was an issue with the audio. We cleaned it up as best we could and felt that, even though it's not the best audio, the content and message given during their interviews warranted being released, even if with not so stellar audio. We thank you for understanding SUMMARY This part 1 conversation was recorded at the 2025 Uechi-Con, in Manchester NH and was with students that tested for their Master level ranks within their organization. They explore the profound impact of martial arts training on individuals' lives, emphasizing the sense of community, personal growth, and the importance of maintaining a lifelong commitment to learning. The participants share their experiences of how martial arts has provided them with a constant in their lives, helped them navigate challenges, and fostered a supportive environment for improvement and camaraderie. The discussion also touches on the themes of addiction, intent, and the generational transfer of knowledge within the martial arts community. Guests include: Michael Boudreau (Hachidan), Johnathan Shepard (Nanadan), Stephanie Rodenhiser (Rokudan), Jose Sanchez (Rokudan), Dottie Endress (Rokudan), Chad Dow (Rokudan) TAKEAWAYS Life is unpredictable, and martial arts provides a constant. The dojo atmosphere fosters community and personal growth. Training helps clear the mind and relieve stress. Martial arts can be seen as a healthy addiction. The skills learned in the dojo translate to everyday life. Intent in training impacts behavior outside the dojo. Prioritizing training is essential amidst life's challenges. Learning is a lifelong journey, both in and out of martial arts. Mistakes are part of the learning process. Generational knowledge transfer enriches the martial arts community.

What if "retirement" is a trap, and what you really want is to graduate into something bigger? In this episode, Matt and Lou sit down with Eric Brotman, CEO of BFG Financial Advisors, to blow up old ideas about retirement, wealth, and what business owners should actually be doing today so they're ready for the future (whatever that looks like). Eric shares his start‑up origin story, explains how to grow a financial advisory firm that actually serves clients well, and gives a roadmap to exit planning that doesn't leave you miserable. What you'll learn in this episode: How Eric built BFG from one full‑time + one part‑time employee into a firm managing nearly $1B across 37 states, without selling out. (Startup → scale) Why “retirement” is obsolete: Eric argues business owners should think about graduating instead. Generational money attitudes: how Millennials are wired for the side hustle; Gen Z hates being sold to, they want advice. The importance of accountability, behavior, and psychology (not just numbers) in financial planning. Exit planning is not just about selling high. It's about knowing your number, building your team, and preparing your life after the deal. How tying nearly all your wealth to your business is risky. Diversification isn't just for Wall Street folks. The internal structure: salaried advisors, two advisors per client, young talent & apprenticeships. A firm built for sustainability, not churning. Favorite Quote: “The business is… sometimes their only asset. And you are immediately under-diversified if 70 or 80 or 90% of your net worth is tied up in your business.” Who is Eric? Eric D. Brotman is the founder & CEO of BFG Financial Advisors. He bootstrapped the firm over 20 years ago and now leads a wealth‑management & financial planning business with clients in dozens of states. He's the author of Don't Retire… Graduate!, and builds financial advice around people, not just numbers. Why you should listen: Don't wait until you have to plan your exit. Hit play now to get strategies that move you from “just working” to building wealth you can use, and a legacy you'll be proud of. If you own a business, this episode might save you years of regret (and dollars).

He helps men and boys unlearn toxic conditioning to build safe, equitable relationships with women, and engages them as allies in ending gender-based violence.

New insights from Microsoft Ireland reveal Ireland's workforce is navigating a period of transformation. The Microsoft Ireland Work Trend Index 2025 is based on a nationally representative survey of 1,000 Irish workers, conducted annually as part of a general population study, ensuring a demographic balance year-on-year. The results show that AI is emerging as a career catalyst, while job turnover hits a record? 38%, according to the respondents who took part in the survey,?while workplace satisfaction trends marginally downward. With AI adoption up 27% year-on-year, 41% of workers say it helps them work smarter. Half (50%) believe AI skills are critically important to remain competitive in the job market, while 54% say having these skills will broaden their job opportunities. Additionally, 40% believe knowing how to use AI at work will help them get promoted faster, and 34% say AI has made them consider other career paths. Yet, this optimism is tempered by uneven access and training gaps, with over half of workers calling for structured or employer-led AI training to help speed adoption. A Workforce in Flux and Under Pressure - Employees call for Balance Despite 57% of workers seeing opportunities for growth within their current roles, Ireland's labour market is in motion. Based on the survey results, turnover has surged from 19% in 2023 to 38% in 2025, positioning Ireland as a market with significant talent volatility. This churn underscores the importance of investing in retention strategies that empower employees to thrive by supporting their well-being, balance, and growth, which in turn help organisations to remain resilient in a rapidly changing workplace. Ireland's workforce trends align with global insights that highlight how emotional strains are compounded by the realities of today's workday, where digital overload and constant interruptions challenge even the most flexible environments. Linking this workforce feedback to Microsoft's global telemetry, a picture emerges showing the modern workday is increasingly distracted. Workers are interrupted every two minutes or 275 times per day, receive 117 emails daily, and spend 57% of meetings in unscheduled sessions. AI Eases Employee Strain - But Wider Access and Training is Required AI offers a practical remedy, helping employees manage their workload, reduce stress, and focus on higher-value tasks. It is increasingly seen as a solution to workplace pressure, with 91% of users in Ireland saying it improves the quality of their work. Additionally, 34% of workers say AI has made them reconsider their career path, highlighting its influence on professional ambition and future career opportunities. However, AI use remains uneven: · Board-level executives: 91% use AI at work · Non-managers: Only 39% use AI at work (versus 66% of managers) · Gender imbalance: 63% of men versus 47% of women use AI at work · Generational usage: 55% of Gen Z (18-24) use AI at work, compared with 62% of younger millennials (25-34), 59% of older millennials (35-44), 47% of Gen X (45-54), and 48% of Boomers (55-64). These disparities raise concerns about who has access to AI tools and benefits from them, and who risks being left behind. Lower engagement with AI could limit opportunities for efficiency and relief from routine tasks, potentially exacerbating stress levels for employees under pressure. It's perhaps no surprise, therefore, that over half (61%) of Irish workers are calling for structured AI training, saying their employer could support adoption by offering more training either in-house or through external providers, and 47% believe they should be given more time to research AI independently. Commenting on the alignment between Irish trends and the broader global perspective, Microsoft Ireland General Manager, Catherine Doyle said: "Ireland is at a turning point. As AI transforms the world of work, Irish employees and employers are navigating rapid change and new opportunities. The me...
In this episode of The Missing Middle, Mike Moffatt and Sabrina Maddeaux dig into the rise of shrinkflation, from grocery store products like cereal and Kraft Dinner to Canada's shrinking condos, and reveal how companies, developers, and government policies are quietly giving Canadians less for more.

On this week's episode of Best Ever CRE, Ash Patel goes full-send on authenticity in real estate and social media, calling out clickbait growth hacks and the hollow vanity metrics behind them. He unpacks why “generational funds” and decade-long holds often mask weak deals, and why infinite banking is just expensive life insurance dressed up with fancy marketing. Ash also takes aim at sloppy capital raising, urges investors to prioritize net worth over door count or passive-income theatrics, and shares how being real on LinkedIn helped him move capital quickly.

How to Build Wealth as a Clinical Entrepreneur In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down how your clinic can be more than just a job replacement—it can be your wealth-building engine. He shares five steps learned from mentors, mistakes, and over a decade of running businesses, showing how to reinvest in your practice, avoid costly tax-driven schemes, and keep your wealth strategy simple and sustainable. Quick Ask If you're finding value in the podcast, help us hit our mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to physical therapy. Share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your IG stories and tag Danny—he'll reshare it! Episode Summary Core thesis: Your clinic is your best wealth-building asset. Treat it like the investment it is. Step 1: Stop investing outside the business at the start—double down on reinvesting in your practice until it grows. Step 2: Grow income to a level where you have more than you need, without falling into lifestyle creep. Step 3: Avoid tax-first investments; focus on solid opportunities first, with tax benefits as a bonus. Step 4: Keep outside investments simple, liquid, and automated (e.g., index funds, Roth, brokerage). Step 5: Refocus on your core business—it's the biggest driver of your income, wealth, and eventual valuation. Five Wealth-Building Steps Reinvest first: Stop putting money into outside investments until your business is stable and growing. Scale income: Push until your take-home dwarfs your expenses, creating a true gap to invest. Avoid shiny tax tricks: Don't get lured into complex, illiquid strategies just to save on taxes. Automate simple wealth: Stick to straightforward, low-risk investments you don't need to micromanage. Refocus on the clinic: Your business is the asset that drives both income and long-term wealth potential. Why This Matters Cash flow: Clinics aren't tech startups with 10x exits, but they provide steady, strong cash flow. De-risking: Building wealth outside your business reduces stress and makes better decisions possible inside your business. Exit optionality: Even if you never sell, you've built income streams and assets that fund your life. Generational wealth: A smart clinic + simple investments can set up long-term family stability. Pro Tips You Can Use Today Audit reinvestment: Look at what you're spending outside your clinic and redirect into marketing, mentorship, or systems. Watch lifestyle creep: Don't inflate spending just because your clinic income grows. Vet opportunities: Only pursue investments you understand and can keep simple. Think barbell: Your clinic is the high-risk/high-reward side; balance it with simple, low-risk assets. Notable Quotes “The best financial decision I ever made was to stop investing outside of my clinic and pour it all back into growing my business.” “Don't let tax loopholes drive your investing. Solid investment first, tax benefit second.” “Your clinic is your core asset. Improve that, and everything else follows.” Action Items Redirect outside investments into your clinic until it's producing consistent profitability. Set a percentage of excess income for simple, automated investments once you have a surplus. Stop chasing tax shelters—pick straightforward, safe investments instead. Schedule time to review your clinic's systems, team, and profitability this quarter. Programs Mentioned Clinical Rainmaker: Coaching + plan to get you full-time in your clinic. Mastermind: Scale beyond yourself into space, team, and systems.

Days of Awe & the Rhythm of the Kingdom: True Readiness, Not Date-Setting – KIB 499 Description In this Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake call the Remnant back into the rhythm of the Kingdom during the Days of Awe—away from hype, date-setting, and pagan substitutes.

This is a sober call to walk in sync with Jesus, close the doors to Babylon, and live ready.

Generational wealth transfer is set to transform the financial landscape over the next two decades. An estimated $124 trillion is expected to change hands at a time when attitudes toward money, investing, and legacy are evolving. This is reshaping how families and institutions approach wealth management. As Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z step into stewardship roles, the focus is shifting from traditional investment strategies to new innovations and technologies, values-driven planning, and holistic advice that reflect a new era of priorities. On this episode of Disruptive Forces, host Anu Rajakumar sits with Stephanie Luedke, Head of Private Wealth at Neuberger Berman, to demystify the changing dynamics of generational wealth transfer and its growing impact on families, advisors, and the broader market. Together, they discuss the drivers of this historic shift, explore trends in family governance and investment behavior, and share practical perspectives for those looking to sustain their legacy in a rapidly evolving world.

What happens when we face the hard reality of childhood obesity with solutions-focused honesty, grace, and hope? In this episode, Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast host, Jamie Belz, jumps into the passenger seat and releases the reins as a guest on The Liberty Wellness Podcast, hosted by Rebecca Stewart. Rebecca is a National Board-Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP), a homeschool mama of two, and the founder of Liberty Wellness & Co.—a virtual practice supporting clients through complex chronic illnesses like Lyme disease, Hashimoto's, and autoimmune conditions. She's also the creator of the Liberty Wellness Homeschool High School Health Curriculum, giving families a solid foundation for health education at home. Her heart for parents, children, and future generations shines through every word. After listening to Episode 35 of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Rebecca invited Jamie to be a guest on her platform for a real conversation to help parents and kids understand: The biology behind childhood obesity - why it's not just “baby fat” and how early patterns set lifelong health trajectories. Parental guilt, shame, and fear—how to forgive ourselves and look forward with positivity as we help heal our families. The impact of sugar, dopamine hits, screen time, and nutrient-deficient foods on kids' developing bodies. Why bio-individuality matters: every child is unique, and healing isn't one-size-fits-all. Generational cycles of health decline, including the eye-opening research of Dr. Francis Pottenger and the warnings of Dr. Weston A. Price nearly a century ago. How simple, doable changes—nutrient-dense meals, family modeling, stress reduction, and connection—can rewrite the story for our kids and grandkids. The powerful reminder that it's never too late to shift course, heal, and create meaningful change, redemption, and hope for healthier generations.

What does it take to transform a neighborhood long defined by poverty into a community of opportunity, dignity, and hope? In this episode, Logan Herring, CEO of The WRK Group, shares how three organizations—the Warehouse, Reach Riverside, and Kingswood Community Center—are leading a $600 million revitalization effort in Wilmington, Delaware's Riverside neighborhood.

Join Pastor Scott as he talks about how faith can't be inherited, and how each generation must encounter God for themselves. Because of that reality, it is critically important to pick up the torch of faith, carry that torch with courage, and pass it on intentionally to those coming behind us.

Don Durrett, Founder and publisher of the website GoldStockData.com and author of the book "How To Invest In Gold And Silver -- A Complete Guide With A Focus On Mining Stocks" joins me to overview why he believes we've finally arrived at a generational one-time trade for the precious metals equities. This is an informative wide-ranging discussion on how Don approaches investing in gold and silver stocks, and touches upon what investing criteria will lead to 5-baggers, 10-baggers, and even 25-baggers and 50-baggers, why holding more positions than is typically recommended can actually give value investors an edge and takes the emotion out of investing in this sector, and why nobody can actually pick all the winners in advance within their portfolio. Key Topics Discussed: Don's 2-decade history investing in the precious metals sector, why he wrote his book, and why he developed his research website as a teaching tool for investors. Why Don has always positioned for a one-time generational trade in gold, silver, and the PM equities, and why he believes the period of time for for that trade to unfold has arrived. Don's outlook on gold to eclipse $5,000 in this run and for silver to move to over $100. Don't outlook on the US bond market starting to fail, and while gold and silver will be the beneficiaries if the US treasury market becomes fragile, and no longer risk-free. How to get an edge by diversifying one's portfolio across a larger portfolio, to get better odds at dozens of 5-baggers and 10-baggers, and the potential for a handful of 25-baggers and even 50-baggers Don's mining stock portfolio is now 177 stocks, and while he concedes that is too many positions, he points out that for most investors they should really hold a portfolio of 50-80 gold and silver stocks; unless they are an active trader - where 30 positions are more appropriate. Don points out that he rarely will have exposure to a 1% position, with the exception of the 2%+ position size he maintains in the 6 ETFs and 3 mutual funds that he holds within his portfolio "I didn't want large positions, and I still don't want large allocations. I found out that 1% is a large allocation, and I don't take 1% positions very often." Why even his current favorite developer, 1911 Gold Corp (TSXV: AUMB) (OTCQB: AUMBF) is just barely over a 1% position size, and why he will not let it get over 1.5% inside his portfolio despite how much potential it has to rerate higher. Why his strategy takes the emotion out of holding a portfolio of PM stocks, and why active investors with 30 positions or less still will have a lot of risk and also emotion tied to any one position that is weighted too heavily. Why Don doesn't need to use stop losses, and doesn't care if a few individual companies fail. An overview of the disciplined strategy and checklists that Don uses for making acquisitions of any position. Don shares a checklist of 10 criteria for producers, 6 criteria for developers, and 2 criteria for explorers. Why nobody can truly pick eventual winners, due to the nature of dilution versus value creation, unexpected acquisitions, and unforeseeable discoveries. All investors can do is pick potential winners. Coeur Mining (NYSE: CDE) is a company that didn't do will historically during bear market periods, but one that Don believes every precious metals portfolio should own. He goes on to share why he feels this is a must own stocks, because of how well it performs during bull market periods, due to the excellent location of their operating mines, and because of how accretive the Silvercrest acquisition was for fixing their balance sheet and their future trajectory. First Majestic Silver Corp. (NYSE: AG) (TSX: AG) has been a poor performer in the past, but Don explains that their acquisition of Gatos Silver fixed the company, but that he believes a future acquisition could make them an even-better overall company. Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX: ASM)(NYSE American: ASM) was a stock Don believes could be as much as a 50-bagger from the low to the eventual high in a $5,000 gold and $100 silver environment. Even though the stock has run up over 6X on this recent move the last 2 years, Don still believes Avino is undervalued and heading much higher, but that it is also a prime takeover target in this cycle. Endeavour Silver Corp. (TSX: EDR) (NYSE: EXK) is one of the 8 silver stocks that Don believes you can "marry" for this PM cycle. He unpacks why he has changed his mind from not initially liking the recent acquisition of their Kolpa Mine in Peru, to now seeing it as very forward-looking and value-accretive for the longer term. Additionally, Don highlights why the Terronera Mine just finishing construction and beginning the ramp-up into production is going to be so significant to the company's growth profile and costs, along with the very large Pitarrilla Mine which is up next in the development cue. In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Coeur Mining, Avino Silver and Gold, and Endeavour Silver, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.

EDITORS NOTE: There was an issue with the audio. We cleaned it up as best we could and felt that, even though it's not the best audio, the content and message given during their interviews warranted being released, even if with not so stellar audio. We thank you for understanding. SUMMARY This part 1 conversation was recorded at the 2025 Uechi-Con, in Manchester NH and was with students that tested for their Master level ranks within their organization. They explore the profound impact of martial arts training on individuals' lives, emphasizing the sense of community, personal growth, and the importance of maintaining a lifelong commitment to learning. The participants share their experiences of how martial arts has provided them with a constant in their lives, helped them navigate challenges, and fostered a supportive environment for improvement and camaraderie. The discussion also touches on the themes of addiction, intent, and the generational transfer of knowledge within the martial arts community. Guests include: Michael Demers (Kudan), Neil Stone (Kudan), Freddy Cicerchia (Kudan), Robert Beal Jr. (Kudan), Jen Patashnick (Hachidan), Matthew Saindon (Hachidan), and John Mahaney (Hachidan). TAKEAWAYS Life is unpredictable, and martial arts provides a constant. The dojo atmosphere fosters community and personal growth. Training helps clear the mind and relieve stress. Martial arts can be seen as a healthy addiction. The skills learned in the dojo translate to everyday life. Intent in training impacts behavior outside the dojo. Prioritizing training is essential amidst life's challenges. Learning is a lifelong journey, both in and out of martial arts. Mistakes are part of the learning process. Generational knowledge transfer enriches the martial arts community.

It's no secret that the American workplace is constantly changing. The last few years alone have witnessed major trends, from “job hugging” and a focus on mental health at work to Gen Z entering the labor force amidst a backlash against DEI initiatives. Such shifts have left business leaders struggling to navigate their new reality in a way that promotes business, inspires employees, and makes us all feel better about our jobs. Business attorney Katie Rinkus welcomes Beth Ridley, a workplace culture consultant and the CEO of Ridley Consulting Group, to dissect these various workplace trends, explaining their effects on businesses and employees alike. Together, they shine a light on how some leaders have responded to new trends—and it's not always for the better. Often, businesses have “over-rotated,” or dramatically course-corrected in ways that have had toxic effects on company culture. In this episode, Katie and Beth explore: The new focus on productivity as opposed to a “culture of belonging” What a “belonging” looks like and why it's important at work · Over-rotation vs. a “both/and” long-term sustainable approach to change The underlying factors of the “leadership trust crisis” How workplace trends like “quiet quitting” and “job hugging” affect employee morale Questions that leaders can ask themselves about the impact of their work What it means to prioritize “workplace emotional safety” Generational tension at work and ways to manage it If you're an employee who feels overwhelmed by the uncertainty of the current climate, Beth and Katie provide a new perspective. If you're a business leader feeling the same, this episode offers insight on how to sustainably respond to the changes and still reach desired results. Tune in for a few tips on problem-solving, even when you don't have all the answers.

Dr. Keira Barr is a board-certified dermatologist and pioneer in psychodermatology who diagnosed her own melanoma — and discovered that the real culprit behind most skin struggles isn't bacteria, hormones, or even genetics. It's your nervous system, stuck in stress mode.

Beauty is acceptance of who we are in our skin.” This isn't about adding more steps to your routine. It's about understanding that your skin is your nervous system's billboard. Dr. Barr shows you how to address the root cause of inflammation from the inside out. Stop fighting your skin and start listening to it.

"Heavy is the head that wears the crown, but you don't get to take the crown off." Steve Harvey Pivot Family, we have a special episode with this one for you, get ready to step inside the life of one of the most prolific figures of our generation. In this powerful and unfiltered conversation, comedy icon, TV mogul, and entrepreneur Steve Harvey sits down with Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder to talk about the pivotal moments that shaped his life — from homelessness to the Live at the Apollo to big screens of Hollywood. He shares the keys to not giving up, how becoming successful is one feat but staying there is true fulfillment. With his signature blend of wisdom and wit, Steve opens up about the grind behind his success, the faith that kept him grounded, and the mindset that separates the great from the average. But beyond the fame, Steve gets deeply personal — reflecting on his upbringing in Cleveland, the sacrifices his parents made, and how his father's discipline and his mother's prayers laid the foundation for everything he's built. He speaks on how their influence still drives him today, especially in how he leads his own family and honors their legacy through purpose-driven work. In an emotional revelation, Steve shares with the guys the depth of his bond with his father and how the closeness is something that can never be replicated and how the loss still sticks with him today. Steve's ability to use humor to discuss tough topics and address some of the darker times in his life is a masterclass on legacy, resilience and betting on yourself. Steve unpacks his biggest pivots — including walking away from secure paychecks to follow his calling, navigating public criticism, and balancing fame with responsibility. He also drops gems on generational wealth, manhood, and what today's young men need to hear about purpose, respect, and staying true to who they are. From generational wealth and black fatherhood to choosing purpose over popularity, Steve delivers game and vulnerability in equal measure. He talks about his own children, especially his daughters and how difficult it is to protect them while in the public eye but also where to draw the line between fame and privacy. This conversation goes far beyond words — it's a blueprint for building a meaningful life. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
