Podcasts about Getting Out

Sasha Sweets grew up in California as a natural hustler — selling candy before moving to drugs, working at a strip club, and always chasing the finer things in life while her father was in prison for part of her childhood — before getting into a scamming operation with the father of her child in her early twenties that produced a federal indictment, 3.5 years in federal prison across California, Kentucky, and Arizona, and over $2 million in restitution. _____________________________________________  #crimenews #prisonstory #truecrimestories #scam _____________________________________________  Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

Women are told to be strong, but not hard. Confident, but not intimidating. Emotional, but for the love of God, don't be too sensitive. Apparently, there's some magical “just right” version of womanhood—but nobody seems to have the address. In this episode of This Is Woman's Work, Nicole Kalil talks with Dr. Sasha Hamdani, board-certified psychiatrist, mental health educator, and author of Too Sensitive about why feeling deeply isn't a flaw to fix. They unpack rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD), what happens when emotions hijack logic, how hormones impact sensitivity, and practical ways to regulate without stuffing, numbing, or apologizing for what's being felt. In This Episode: Why sensitivity isn't weakness—and can actually be a leadership strength What rejection sensitive dysphoria is and why rejection can hit so damn hard How to regulate emotions without suppressing them Why hormones matter more than women have been taught Why the goal isn't thicker skin—it's greater self-awareness and control Feeling deeply isn't the same as being fragile. The goal isn't to become less sensitive—it's to understand it, work with it, and stop shrinking perfectly human parts of ourselves just because they make someone else uncomfortable.

Are you duplicating everybody else by having relationships with people and things, or do you acknowledge yourself as the generative source and create? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action, Simone Milasas continues her conversation with Kelly Pringle about having creationships with everything and everybody, rather than relationships. Creationship is accessing the greater you.  When you are in creationship, you enjoy people but you also open yourself up to all possibilities, with anyone, at any time; there's no limitation to it. You might require and desire something from the other person, but not from lack or need, and doesn't mean you are less than when they are not around; there's room for malleability and change and exploration of something different. What would it take to be in creationship with everything and everyone? Questions And Tools: "Universe and body, show me the way" "Body, what do you require? Do you require anything?" "Why do I care?" "Now what else can I add to my life?" "Dear universe, what else is possible?" Tools: Trust you, your body and the universe. We are amazing and incredible and we keep pretending that we're not. We tend to access the debilitation of us and not what is the greatness of us. What percentage are you choosing your brilliance? Creationship is accessing the greater you. There is so much more available to us. Are you choosing your magic? You need to start accessing what you know. What you know, nobody else knows. What you are aware of, nobody else is aware of. Destroy and uncreate everything you're still perceiving in your body from past lifetimes. What if you were willing to be more vulnerable? The only way you are going to get hurt is if you choose to Look at why you care. What if you didn't care and you chose?  Choosing for you is not choosing against others. Do you enjoy the people you are with? Do they add to your life? Everything you make significant and relevant in relationship creates the structure of relationships. What is your relationship with money? Destroy and uncreate it. If you trusted money, what would show up? Start trusting, honouring, being in allowance, being grateful, and being vuln with and for money. Stop duplicating everybody else with money. What if you were a generative source with money instead? When you do creationship with money, you start to receive in a different way. Ask for a creationship with your finances like you've never chosen before. Being out of control is allowing so many more possibilities to show up beyond anything you can imagine. We are so quick to go to what's wrong rather than, "This is beautiful." A lot of people misidentify excitement as fear. What expectations do you have with your body? When you function from rightness and wrongness, you eliminate awareness. What have you decided is right with your body? What have you decided is wrong with your body? It's a constant state of being in question with your body and not doubting it. Ask for a creationship with your body like you've never chosen before. Do you do boredom so you can be entertained? Go outside and do nothing until you are not bored.   As Mentioned In This Episode: Part 1 of this episode: https://www.simonemilasas.com/blog/320-are-you-looking-for-happy-in-a-relationship-what-about-creationship  Joe Rogan Experience, episode with Zach Bush: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xq2aJpDHIio&t=294s  New Body Therapy: https://www.newbodytherapy.com.au  Access Bars: https://www.accessconsciousness.com/accessbars  Access Consciousness Body Processes: https://www.accessconsciousness.com/access-body  Creationship Not Relationship class: https://www.accessconsciousness.com/en/class-catalog/access-special-classes/advanced-facilitator/Creationship-Not-Relationship_639123950627995680/details  Useful Links: The Clearing Statement explained Access Consciousness Website Choice, Change & Action Podcast Instagram Follow Simone Milasas Simone's Website Simone's Instagram Simone's Facebook Simone's YouTube Simone's Telegram Simone's Contact Email  Follow Kelly Pringle Kelly's Instagram Kelly's Facebook Play with Simone Milasas The Profit Club membership Getting Out of Debt Joyfully Taking Action online video course All Upcoming Classes with Simone Past Class Recordings

What do you desire that you haven't been willing to ask for? What if you could pull it into your life magically, would you? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action, Simone Milasas talks with Julia Sotas Mattis about creating magic in your life through energy pulls, complete with two guided energy pulls.  When you do an energy pull, you are working with the consciousness of the universe. You are letting the universe know your request and you are moving energy to facilitate receiving your request. The energy pull is the perfect starting point to use chaos and discover the type of wizard you are with energy. What magic are you capable of that you have not yet acknowledged you are capable of? What if everything in life is way easier than you think it is? Questions And Tools: "What chaos am I?" "What magic am I?" "I created that. Wow, how great am I? What else is possible?" "What is magical for me? What lights my fire?" "Universe, what do I desire beyond what I can possibly imagine?" "Dear universe, what else is possible?" Tools: Reading is so powerful What would you like to do that you are not choosing? Do energy pulls. Be willing to receive what you are asking for. What action are you taking? What are the greatest possibilities available for your business? We misidentify so much that working hard is going to create greater, but it's not.  What if relaxation was required to create and generate anything and everything? Where are you being so autonomous and refusing to ask for help? What if asking for help and asking to receive more is actually the bravest thing that you could choose? Receive all energies. True receiving is opening up to the entirety of the universe; not controlling what you will and won't receive. Choice is our super power! Magic is choosing what works. Acknowledge you are the source of creation of everything. Start being that brilliance and ask for what you desire and require. If you want to create more magic, acknowledge the magic you already are creating. It will strengthen your relationship with your own magic and expand that magic. When you create magic say, "I created that. Wow, how great am I? What else is possible?" Joy can ignite more magic. Know what brings you joy. Your life is your business. What are the energies of magic for you? What lights your fire? What makes your life worth living? Ask for all of the things you desire that you can't even imagine right now; you don't need to.   What energy, space, consciousness, choice, magic, miracles, mysteries, possibilities, power, potency and profitability can you be to create a reality beyond this reality with total ease? Everything that is, times a godzillion, will you destroy and uncreate it? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, creations, bases and beyonds. How many of you are trying to get it right whilst thinking you are wrong, when in truth, what if you asked for freedom? Everything that is, times a godzillion, will you destroy and uncreate it? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, creations, bases and beyonds. Destroy and uncreate any blocks you have to receiving that much magic. Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, creations, bases and beyonds. what energy, space, consciousness, choice, magic, miracles, mysteries, possibilities, power, potency and profitability can you be to create a reality of magic totally beyond this reality for all eternity with total ease? Everything that is, times a godzillion, will you destroy and uncreate it? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, creations, bases and beyonds.

Operation Midnight Hammer through the eyes of the people who flew it. "Cuffs" was the deployed Director of Operations for the 55th Fighter Squadron, the Wild Weasels who flew Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses ahead of the B-2 strike on Iran. Watch the three-part documentary series on Afterburn Defense: Part I: https://youtu.be/MgQ_X3Td8a4 Part II: https://youtu.be/GzdL6NMYDso Part III: https://youtu.be/Xc22-2RaGSY This is the full interview. He ran the squadron's operations from the main base while the strike launched from somewhere else. In this conversation, he talks about how young the pilots flying this mission actually were, what it took to run a squadron split across two locations, the last handshakes before they stepped, and the wait until he heard they were on their way back. Before Iran, the 55th Fighter Squadron fought over Yemen in Operation Rough Rider, a sustained air campaign against Houthi surface-to-air threats. What they learned there is the reason the F-16 Block 50 and the AGM-88 HARM were part of the strike package on June 21st, 2025. These interviews were recorded between December 2025 and January 2026 and preserve firsthand accounts from pilots, maintainers, intelligence officers, and logistics airmen who were there. 0:00 Spinning Up the Squadron for Deployment 1:43 A Threat Environment Unlike the Last 20 Years 4:09 Why the F-16 Still Matters in This Fight 6:28 Getting Out the Door 9:09 Most of These Pilots Were in Their Twenties 12:11 Learning a New Base and New Configurations 16:28 First Combat Sorties Over Yemen 20:24 Thinking About the Risk to Yourself 22:44 Learning About Operation Midnight Hammer 26:27 Trusting the Weapons Officers to Plan It 28:58 Running a Squadron Split Across Two Locations 32:48 The Night It Happened 36:50 The Last Handshakes Before They Stepped 39:38 Watching Them Come Home Have a story?

We often think we need better time management, but the real problem may be how we manage ourselves, especially when it comes to stress and self-doubt. Emotional reactions and internal friction can drain more time than a busy schedule ever could. Dan welcomed Neal Schore, founder and CEO of 25th Hour Group and author of The 25th Hour: How to Thrive (And Gain Ridiculous Amounts of Time) by Getting Out of Your Own Way, who offers advice on becoming more confident, resilient, and in control while overcoming challenges like impostor syndrome.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are you reacting to the current economic downturn like everyone else? Tightening the purse strings and functioning from lack is going to create more lack. The world is in lack but you don't have to be. Are you willing to not be normal, average and real, and choose possibilities? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action, Simone Milasas talks with Viv Adcock about the energetics of money and what you can do and be to generate and create possibilities with money, regardless of the economic climate.  Firstly, tightening the purse strings is a judgment - that there's not enough money, that it's finite, that things are too expensive, etc. - and judgment never creates, it always destroys.  Secondly, what you focus on grows. Are you putting your attention on what is not, rather than looking at what else is possible and what you are actually receiving? If you are truly desiring something different, you've got to be out of control and in question, and you've got to be willing to receive, allowing every molecule of consciousness to contribute to you. Questions And Tools: "What can I create, what can I choose, what action can I take to change my financial reality?" "Who does this belong to?" "Universe, show me what else is possible." "What can I receive that I haven't been willing to receive before?" "What else is possible beyond this?" "What have I decided I need money for?" "What am I avoiding with money?" "What am I proving with money?" "What am I proving with no money?" "What can show up today that I wasn't willing to receive?" "What can I be today that I have not yet chosen?" "All of life comes to us with ease, joy and glory." Tools: Don't go to reaction, go to action. What year did you create the most money so far? Times it by 10. What action do you need to take to create and generate that? Do you need to make more money? Would you like to? Tightening the purse strings and functioning from lack is going to create more lack. Acknowledge what you are already receiving. What if you didn't stop receiving? Look for what else is possible. Start being in question and find out what is possible beyond control. Price is not relevant because you can always create and generate more. The world is in lack but you don't have to be in lack. What if it isn't a problem, what if it's a situation? POC & POD to clear the canvas then ask, "What action can I take that will create change here?" Don't try and work out the future by controlling it. Allow the future to show up by being in question. Be willing to ask for help. Are you willing to go bigger and greater than you perceive is possible? What contribution can you be with money? What if money was to change people's realities? Do you want a predictable, duplicatable reality or a generative life that is always about being in question and always receiving and knowing that greater can show up? You've got to be out of control. You've got to be willing to receive. Have you decided you can't outcreate your family? How many of you are functioning from this caste system that doesn't need to be? Are you truly desiring something different? Stop being limited and start being you   What would happen if you were out of control, out of definition, out of form, structure and significance, out of linearities, out of concentricities and out of limitations with receiving? Everything that is, times a godzillion, will you destroy and uncreate it? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, creations, bases and beyonds. What action can you take today that would allow something so different to show up that just blows you away - financially, business, relationships, sex, everything? Everything that doesn't allow that to show up, times a godzillion, will you destroy and uncreate it? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, creations, bases and beyonds. Will you now let every molecule of consciousness contribute to you, your body, your business, everything and more? Everything that doesn't allow that to show up, times a godzillion, will you destroy and uncreate it? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, creations, bases and beyonds.

His mom was a queenpin. His dad was the muscle. By 16, he was selling meth and building his own operation in small-town Texas. In this episode, Cory Simek, a former teenage meth dealer reveals what it was like growing up inside the drug game—and how his family's criminal lifestyle shaped the path he followed. After starting with marijuana, he quickly moved into meth, made serious money before he was old enough to sign a lease, and became the target of a six-month police investigation. He breaks down how confidential informants gained his trust, the warning signs he ignored, the raid that brought everything crashing down, and the brutal reality of racial politics and survival inside the Texas prison system. But his story did not end behind bars. After serving years in prison and losing nearly everything, he transformed his mentality, entered the car business with no experience, became a top salesman, opened his own dealership, invested in real estate, and rebuilt his life through legitimate business. This is a raw story about growing up in a criminal family, selling meth at 16, undercover informants, police raids, addiction, betrayal, Texas prison, redemption, entrepreneurship, and second chances.

Are you willing to be someone who is a leader in the world, or are you someone who looks at the reasons why you cannot do something? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action, Simone Milasas talks about being an effective leader. An effective leader is someone who knows where they are heading and goes towards that no matter who else is willing to go with them. You're not trying to prove anything, you're not getting it right or wrong; you're willing to listen to the whispers. What reasons and justifications do you have for not choosing what you truly could be choosing? To be a leader, you have to choose. The choices you choose today create your future.  What choices can you make today that will actualise the future that you desire and deserve?         This is an excerpt from the What is being an effective leader class and you can find the full recording plus many more classes here: http://access.me/                                                                                                                                                                                                                         Questions And Tools: "What future can I be today that would allow this to show up?" "What grand and glorious adventures can I have today?" Tools: What have you decided an effective leader is?  What reasons and justifications do you have for not choosing what you truly could be choosing?  What are you defending and avoiding with your choices, or your no choices?  How many times do you look at the reason why you cannot? Ask for more every single day and take some action so that what you desire eventuates in the world. Are you holding onto people rather than choosing something greater? The choices you choose today create your future. Destroy and uncreate everywhere you've ever chosen anyone as a reference point for choosing what it is that you would like. Where are you heading? Are you choosing for you or are you choosing for others? Just choose. Destroy and uncreate everything you've decided you are today. A true leader doesn't have to be the last person to leave a room. A true leader doesn't have to be the one who is at every meeting. A true leader knows when their energy is required and is willing to be in question and will choose based on that, never having to prove their worth. If you start with you, then you can be a leader with others.   How many of you are currently holding yourself back for someone or something? Everything that is, times a godzillion, will you destroy and uncreate it? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, creations, bases and beyonds.

Where does a leader's time actually go? It is not only swallowed by meetings and email. Some of the biggest drains on our time never appear in the calendar.In this episode of the Thriving Leaders Podcast, I speak with Neal Schore, co-founder and CEO of The 25th Hour Group, former founder, president and CEO of Triton Digital, executive coach and author of The 25th Hour: How to Thrive (And Gain Ridiculous Amounts of Time) by Getting Out of Your Own Way.Neal challenges the way we typically think about time management. What if the problem is not simply an overloaded calendar, but the patterns quietly consuming our attention and energy?Neal offers a different perspective on where leaders lose time without realising it—and what it takes to break the pattern.In this episode, we cover:Why conventional time-management tactics only address part of the problemHow fear, defensiveness and the need for control quietly consume timeWhy commiserating can masquerade as collaborationHow asking yourself a simple question can prevent misinterpretation and improve performanceHow to stop reacting, interrupting or assuming the worstHow the 10% meeting rule creates space and sharpens focusThe words to eliminate from your vocabulary that can create avoidable ambiguityHow small disruptions to familiar routines can strengthen awareness and creativityWhy leaders need to become more comfortable with discomfortHow probability-weighting a fear can stop hours of unproductive “swirling”Why “It's my fault” is an exercise in agency rather than blameHow a leader's behaviour becomes a model for the wider teamNeal's message is not that leaders will never overthink or react defensively. It is that we can notice it sooner, manage ourselves more deliberately and stop giving away so much time.If you are working flat out but still feel as though there is never enough time, this conversation offers a different place to begin.Links and resources:Neal Schore on LinkedInThe 25th Hour GroupThe 25th Hour by Neal SchoreSCARF Model by Dr David Rock Visit Thriving Culture websiteBrown, D.

This week Chris sits down with Michael Levy, CEO of Crow Holdings, one of the largest private real estate firms in the country. This one goes far beyond real estate. Michael runs a major firm, but he opens on the big macro picture and works his way back down to real estate. They start with where the economy and the country are heading, and they end on what it means for how investors should be thinking today. They discuss:• The reindustrialization of America, and why national security and supply chains are driving what gets built• Getting out of the online bubble, and why travel, long-form media, and real conversation matter more now• The data center power wall, where deposits run a million dollars a megawatt for power that may not arrive for years• Why Michael believes a country's wealth comes down to the cost and abundance of its energy• Whether college is still worth it, and why the master electrician may be the new Google engineer• The future of the allocator model in real estate, and why scale and consolidation are reshaping the industry• Where real estate goes now, and why this could be a slow decade before it turns Timestamps:(00:00) Intro(00:50) The Big Arc of History Has Swung(07:09) Following the Capital Into Defense and Infrastructure(13:22) Getting Out of the Bubble and the Rise of New Media(21:18) How Power Deposits Reset the Data Center Game(25:34) Crow's Data Center Power Strategy and the Dallas Project(30:58) What If We Stop Needing Big Data Centers?(36:22) The Wealth of a Country Is Its Energy(39:26) Why College Debt Buys Classes You Never Needed(44:22) The Master Electrician Is the New Google Engineer(49:23) Is the Allocator Model Done?(55:33) You Don't Get Fired for Hiring IBM(59:29) Why the Local Friends-and-Family Fundraiser Survives(1:05:37) How Crow Competes Against the Big Consolidators(1:12:04) How Co-Invest and Breakpoints Quietly Erode Fees(1:19:43) The 2020s Could Be a Lost Decade in Real Estate === Presented by AirshareAirshare is trusted across the country for fractional ownership, jet cards, charter, and aircraft management, with over 25 years of experience, their own fleet, and the top safety ratings in the industry.

Are you trying to find your 'happy' in a relationship? What if you had a creationship instead? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action, Simone Milasas talks with Kelly Pringle about creationships; a term that describes generative relationships, where you are creating at least 20 times more together than you do alone such that the relationship adds to your life and future. How many of you are choosing a predictable life that you think is result driven, rather than being with someone and its total play, total receiving of all energies, total allowance of them and you with no projections or expectations or having to be right or wrong, and no controlling yourself or your partner or the relationship? Creationship is a choice, not a necessity. When you don't have a need in your world, you can start to receive a different possibility. Questions And Tools: "Is this working for me?" "Is this person capable of delivering what it is I would like?" "Body, what would you like to eat?" Tools: Choosing is not losing. Most people look at a relationship to fulfill something they are lacking. What if you never lacked anything? You are an infinite being. You are free to choose whatever it is you want to choose. Have allowance for what your partner is choosing. Choose what you want to choose and let them choose what they want to choose. Don't stop what you can create. What if there was no role you have in a relationship. You get to choose you and they get to choose them. No projections, expectations, or judgments. If you were being needless, what would you choose? What can you receive beyond need? Enjoy your partner. Always be in question. Ask your body what it would like to eat. All the energetic projections towards you about what you should be doing and choosing in relationships, and everywhere you picked up on that and made that the priority rather than YOU a priority, will you destroy and uncreate it? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, creations, bases and beyonds.   As Mentioned In This Episode: Relationships Done Different: https://www.accessconsciousness.com/en/micrositesfolder/relationship-done-different  Useful Links: The Clearing Statement explained Access Consciousness Website Choice, Change & Action Podcast Instagram Follow Simone Milasas Simone's Website Simone's Instagram Simone's Facebook Simone's YouTube Simone's Telegram Simone's Contact Email  Follow Kelly Pringle Kelly's Instagram Kelly's Facebook Kelly's LinkedIn Play with Simone Milasas The Profit Club membership Getting Out of Debt Joyfully Taking Action online video course All Upcoming Classes with Simone Past Class Recordings

A man came in from three hours of surfing and asked his partner if she was angry at him. She said no. Why would I be angry? You love surfing. He only asked because the woman he dated before her used to yell at him every single time he went.That story stopped Ky cold, and it is the heart of this conversation.A lot of us were trained to read somebody needing space as the beginning of the end. Your partner goes quiet. They want a night alone. And your brain has already written the breakup speech.Simone Milasas is an author and a relationship facilitator from Australia. She co-wrote Relationship. Are You Sure You Want One?, wrote Joy of Business and Getting Out of Debt Joyfully, and hosts The Choice, Change & Action Podcast. She has spent years in rooms full of people asking her how to fix their relationships, and her answer is almost never the one they showed up for.Her position is that relationships do not fail from bad communication. They fail from needs, expectations, and projections nobody ever said out loud.Ky and Simone get into the five elements of intimacy, trust, honor, allowance, vulnerability and gratitude, and why you have to give all five to yourself before you can hand them to anyone else. They talk about the myth of "the one" and how it keeps people stuck. A concept she teaches called creationship. Why she keeps a second bathroom on purpose. And the money conversation she used to book a restaurant table for four to have.The line that keeps sitting with Ky: when she needs an hour alone, it is not against him, it is for her.Heads up, there is some language in this one.MORE FROM SIMONE MILASASHer podcast, The Choice, Change & Action Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/za/podcast/the-choice-change-action-podcast/id1512950259Her website:https://www.simonemilasas.com/aboutWANT MORE?Everything lives at TheVibeWithKy.com.

We're on summer break, so this week is a Revisit: a favorite conversation pulled back out of the archive. The idea takes after Dr. Kurosh Dini's concept of the visit, showing up to something with curiosity rather than judgment.In this one, we talk with coach Jane Massengill about the negative self-talk that so many people with ADHD carry, why it can run louder for us, and a simple practice she calls word watching for catching it in the moment. It's a warm, useful conversation about learning to be kinder to yourself.

What is your experience with travelling? Is it fun for you, just a means to a destination, or a complete nightmare? Join Simone Milasas in this episode of Choice, Change and Action, as she talks with Dr. David Kubes about all things travel. Find out fun facts like David and Simone's favourite airline, favourite plane, and the best airport lounges and food. Get tips on hiring cars, catching trains, booking restaurants, and where to sit on a plane. Your travel experience can be so much more enjoyable if you do your research beforehand and engage with the locals when you arrive. Their number one tip: travel is an adventure, so enjoy it. No matter what delay or mishap occurs, you're always going to end up okay. Have fun and explore the world! Questions And Tools: "What's right about this I'm not getting?" Tools: To avoid the sun, sit on the left when flying west bound. Google the best seat to sit in if you want to see a particular landmark you're flying over Educate yourself on which credit cards get you airport lounge access. All airlines overbook. Call the airline and ask if they need volunteers for upgrades. Ask the airline if they do cash upgrades. If the flight is not fully booked, ask at the check in counter if there is any row free where you can lie down. The very front row typically has less leg room; go for the second row. Give the steward looking after you a small gift eg Tim Tams or Malteesers. Continuously educate yourself and gain awareness on travel. Ask people you know who travel a lot what they know. Ask locals for recommendations of what to see, do and where to eat. Ask your body where it wants to eat. Eat local food. When booking a restaurant, book for more people than are coming and say they cancelled on you so you get assigned a bigger table. If you don't speak the language, use your hands. When driving overseas, remember your body has to be in the middle of the road. Treat everything like an adventure. Have fun.

Are you made wrong for being different? What if there was no definition of you ever, and that was not wrong? As you acknowledge your difference and your unique capacities, more magic and miracles show up. In this episode of Choice, Change and Action, Simone Milasas talks with Rachel O'Brien and Troy Aldanmaz about their experiences with being different and navigating this world. When you acknowledge that you are different and your functionality is different, you can recognise that what you require is also different such that you can start choosing what works for you. You chose to be born in this lifetime, in this body, as you - difference and all. What did you choose it for? Amp it up! Questions And Tools: "What am I perceiving?" "Is this mine?" "Who does this belong to?" "Return to sender with consciousness attached." "All of life comes to me with ease and joy and glory." "What am I aware of?" "If I choose this, what will my life be like in 5 years, 10 years, 15 years? If I don't choose this, what will my life be like in 5 years, 10 years, 15 years?" Tools: Don't project and expect others to be like you. Prefer to come from the space of, "This is what I require and this is what they require. How do we make it work?" Stop trying to fit in with other people and this reality. You are different. You don't fit in and you will never fit. Lean into your capacities and don't make yourself wrong for them. Stop judging yourself. You're not wrong for not fitting in. Nurture your reality. What is true for you? Pretending you are normal when you are not is one of the most dangerous things you can do to yourself. Add space. What is your body asking for to help you navigate the world? Do you require more salt, sugar or water than what is considered 'normal'? Be interesting point of view. What is relaxation for you? This reality tries to put a definition on everything and give you labels. What if it is okay to not have a label? Autism is a question that nobody has ever been. As you acknowledge your difference, more magic and miracles show up. Where can you be on the planet that balances the Earth? Choose what works for you. Clear all the projections, expectations, separations, judgments and rejections on you from others. Awareness is not a curse or something you need to get rid of; it's a contribution. You chose to be born in this lifetime in this body. What did you choose it for? Amp it up. Trust you, trust your body and let consciousness lead you.   What if there was no definition of you ever, and that was not wrong? And you never had to find out who, what, where, when, why, how you are and you're constantly changing, and that's okay? Everything that is, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds.

“If you’re not paying attention to core working capital, it’s like waking up one day and all of a sudden you’re in the middle of a shit storm. And you’re like, “How did this happen?!” – RJon Robins, author of Profit First for Lawyers In the final episode of our seven-part Financial Literacy Series, RJon introduces one of the most important concepts for long-term business stability: core working capital. Drawing from both the Profit First for Lawyers audiobook and the 2019 live workshop, he explains why maintaining adequate working capital isn’t about fear. It’s about creating the financial cushion that allows you to grow intentionally instead of constantly reacting to cash flow challenges. Throughout this series, we have talked about understanding your numbers, calculating Total Owner Benefit, determining your normalized salary, implementing Profit First, and strategically getting out of production. Core working capital brings all those lessons together. What Financial Literacy Adds to Your Life Our exploration into what it means to become financially literate as a law firm owner has been about understanding the story your numbers are telling you. This knowledge can help you make better decisions for your business, your family, and your future. Action Steps Review your firm’s monthly operating expenses and determine how much core working capital you currently have available. Meet with your leadership and financial team to discuss your growth goals and whether your current financial cushion supports those plans. Use what you’ve learned throughout this Financial Literacy Series to make intentional, well-informed decisions that strengthen your business for the long term. While financial literacy does not eliminate uncertainty, it does give you the confidence to make informed decisions about your business growth. As RJon has explained throughout the series, the goal isn’t to simply accumulate cash. It is to build a business that gives you more options, greater stability, and the freedom to think beyond today’s challenges.

Have you ever wondered about the back story of businesses and why they are created?  In this episode of Choice, Change and Action, Simone Milasas talks about the impetus for her latest business venture, Whatever Makes U Happy, and reveals the back story of some of the slogans that appear on the products. Simone would like to see a change in the world and Whatever Makes U Happy is one way that she is inviting that change. What would you like to create and choose in the world?

"Who does this belong to?" "What can I be today?" "Dear universe, what else is possible?" Tools: How many of you are telling yourself the lie that you have to do more? What if it's about being more? What if you could work elegantly? Do you know there is something else possible? There is a different way to be here on this planet. Are you going to choose it or get sucked into all the noise around you? Include money in your business, but don't make it the initial reason for choosing it. Where are you not choosing something because you've decided it won't make you enough money? Don't make it about the money. What if you could receive in a very different way? You change the energy with the way you receive something. There's more available You are not as fucked up as you think you are. Engage with the world. Allow the magic, miracles and chaos - You choosing what works is magic. You being you is a miracle. Chaos is a creative source. What could you being in allowance create and generate for the world and for you? When you make something really matter, how much do you eliminate choice? What if you just let go and fly? Trust you and the universe. You're not busy; you're popular. Be in question and just choose. What is it you would like to choose that you are not currently choosing? What if you chose it? What if every idea you have ever had, whether in this lifetime or another, you allowed it to show up here and now and you have access to it no matter what? Don't forget to live.

Jared Callahan grew up in New York with a father who was an illegal marijuana grower — and when your dad runs the operation getting brought into the business isn't a choice it's a family tradition. By his teens Jared was already selling pot and by the time he was fully in he was moving pounds and running a serious flipping operation that brought in real money. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Jared tells the complete story — from growing up with a marijuana growing father to getting into the business as a teenager to his first arrest and New York state prison sentence to getting out and trying to stay straight until a probation violation pulled him back in. Then the feds picked up the case and federal prison followed. _____________________________________________ #arrest #prison #truecrimestories _____________________________________________ Connect with Jared Callahan: https://www.facebook.com/share/1BeDSQfkAZ/?mibextid=wwXIfr _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Teen Who Discovered His Dad's Drug Operation — Then Built His Own Empire — Full Story 01:28 How He First Discovered What His Father Was Really Running 03:54 Getting Drawn Into the Drug World as a Teenager and What That Really Looked Like 05:50 His First Deals and the Friendships That Changed Everything 08:40 The Escalation From Small Time to Major Player and What That Required 13:03 How His Brother Got Pulled In and the Family Impact That Followed 18:24 Street Life and the Near Death Encounters That Should Have Changed Everything 25:03 His Reflections on the Consequences He Watched Pile Up Around Him 32:27 Losing His Savings the Family Fallout and What Kept Him Going Anyway 38:54 Stepping Up Operations and What Moving to That Level Really Involved 46:42 His First Arrest and What Entering New York State Prison Really Felt Like 01:01:11 Life Inside New York State Prison and What Surviving It Really Required 01:17:01 Getting Out and the Parole Struggles That Defined Life After His First Sentence 01:37:57 Going Back to the Streets and How the Federal System Started Closing In 01:47:57 Moving Serious Weight and What Operating at That Level Really Looked Like 02:03:31 The Feds Closing In and the Deal Gone Wrong That Changed Everything 02:10:32 The Federal Raid and What Facing Major Charges Really Felt Like 02:18:09 The Toughest Decision of His Life — Snitching Loyalty and Survival in Prison 02:35:41 Living With That Decision and What That Weight Really Does to a Person 02:42:03 His Release His Redemption and What Giving Back Actually Looks Like 02:48:02 The Lessons He Carries and What He Wants Everyone to Hear _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

Rev. Dr. Harry L. White, Jr., preaching from the topic "Getting Out of my Own Way" from Jonah 1:1-9.  This podcast is an outreach of Watts Chapel Missionary Baptist Church in Raleigh, North Carolina.

How many times do you use your feelings to be dramatic? Does that open you up or start to shut you down? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action, Simone Milasas talks about feelings and how they are used to control things - usually you!  As soon as you go to feelings, you go to judgement. What if you didn't judge anymore and started functioning from your awareness? Feelings are not real. What are you aware of? Feelings can also be used to avoid things, like the intensity of being - of being out of control, allowing the magic, the miracles and the chaos, and just questioning and choosing! Everything in your life is a choice. What if you enjoyed all of your choices and truly lived? Whatever you are choosing, have the best day so far, and always ask for more. Questions And Tools: "What am I aware of?" "What would I have to be and do today that would allow more money to show up than I know how to handle?" Tools: 99.99% of your emotions aren't yours. If you're thinking you're stinking. Feelings aren't real; they're designed to control you. Stop looking to others around you to justify your creations; just give it a shot. How many of you find it way easier to say "No," than "Yes"? What if you flipped it? Your body feels and you as an infinite being sense. For 3 days, ask, "Who does this belong to?" for every thought, feeling and emotion. Every time you go to your feelings, you invalidate your knowing. What is the value of invalidating your knowing? Whatever occurred in the past, what if that doesn't matter? What if it was about what you are choosing today? You're not wrong. You can instantaneously change a point of view. Are you using your feelings to avoid the intensity of being where you are constantly in question?  Feelings are not real and they're designed to control something - most of the time, you. Be willing to be out of control. What if you could choose more than anyone else? Would you be willing to give up your morals?   How many of you love your feelings? Everything that is and everywhere you are totally and utterly addicted to your feelings, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. What if you stopped using your emotions and feelings to judge and you started functioning from your awareness? Everything that is, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. How many feelings have you made so solid and real in your body that it is showing up as pain and suffering? Everything that is, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. How many feelings are you using to justify the not knowing? Everything that is, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. How many feelings are you using to control you? Everything that is, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. Everywhere you've misidentified that the intensity of being is actually the intensity of feelings,  will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. What feelings do you have around your business? Everything that is, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. Everywhere you feel that everybody else has more importance than you and your body, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds.

After seven years in a Texas prison, Tim came home with prison politics, gang ties, and connections that would pull him straight into the meth game. In episode 4 of Tim's series, he breaks down how life behind bars shaped his mindset, how he adjusted after release, and how prison relationships eventually led to cartel-level meth connections. Tim talks about working on death row, surviving the Texas prison system, coming home on parole, and entering a dangerous world of meth trafficking, cartel plugs, stash houses, and small-town drug markets. He also explains how rural Texas became flooded with ice, why meth spread so quickly through small towns, and how one out-of-state connection changed everything. This is a raw look at prison life, cartel influence, the meth pipeline, and the consequences of chasing fast money after prison. Watch until the end for Tim's reflection on how quickly the money, pressure, and paranoia took over. Topics covered: -Meth trafficking in Texas -Cartel meth connections -Small-town drug epidemics -Life after prison -Parole and halfway houses -Cartel stash houses -The prison-to-streets pipeline Go Support Tim!

Kevin Christian spent 12 years saving lives as a paramedic and firefighter in Missouri — responding to crime scenes accidents and emergencies that most people never have to witness. When the money stopped being enough he made a decision that changed everything. He learned to cook meth. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Kevin tells the complete story — from his paramedic days and the devastating crime scenes that shaped him to building a meth cooking and trafficking operation that made him thousands a week. When the cops came the feds picked up the case and Kevin refused to rat on anyone. That loyalty cost him 35 years in federal prison. He shares what the federal prison system looked like from the inside through the 1990s all the way to his early release in 2020 — the prison hustle the food the commissary how the system changed over three decades the politics and what rising to shot caller of the Missouri car actually required. This is one of the most complete and honest federal prison stories we have ever told on this show. _____________________________________________ #walterwhite #prisonlife #truecrimecommunity #shotcaller _____________________________________________ Thank you to BLUEPRINT & MARS MEN for sponsoring this episode: Blueprint: For a limited time only, our listeners get 20% off + free shipping at https://blueprint.bryanjohnson.com/ by using code LOCKEDIN at checkout. #Blueprint #ad _____________________________________________ Mars Men: For a limited time, our listeners get 50% off FOR LIFE, Free Shipping, AND 3 Free Gifts at Mars Men at https://mengotomars.com/ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Paramedic Who Cooked Meth and Got 35 Years in Federal Prison — Full Story 03:00 His Early Life and the Paramedic Career That Nobody Expected to End This Way 09:00 The Appeal and Reality of Making Meth and What Drew Him Into That World 14:30 Building a Full Meth Operation and the Lifestyle That Came With It 19:00 How Law Enforcement and the Feds Closed In and What That Process Really Looked Like 25:30 The Arrest the Sentencing and What Entering the Federal Prison System Really Felt Like 32:00 The Life and Politics Inside Federal Prison That Govern Absolutely Everything 38:30 The Hustles Contraband and Survival Tactics That Defined His Time Inside 46:00 Prison Food Commissary and How Prison Changed Dramatically Over the Years 54:30 The Violence Contraband and Shifting Norms That Defined Different Eras Inside 01:02:00 Reflecting on the Years Lost and What Reentry to Society Really Looked Like 01:10:00 Getting Out and Adjusting to a Modern World That Moved On Without Him 01:17:00 Rebuilding His Life Family and Identity After Decades Behind Bars 01:24:00 The Biggest Lessons He Carries and What He Wants Everyone to Take Away _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

Stop limiting its growth through choices like competition, looking to the past, and making things matter that don't, and start choosing the elements of ease, joy, glory, magic, miracles and chaos. What seeds are you growing that you could be nurturing today? Questions And Tools: "What else can I generate?" "What else is occurring here that I haven't allowed myself to receive?" "If I wasn't competing, what else is available? What else could I be choosing in regards to this?" "What if this didn't matter?" Tools: What is the future you are asking for? What is the future your business is asking for? What else is occurring and what else is showing up that you haven't allowed yourself to receive?

Stop listening to the noise. Ask a question.   What is the future that you are asking for? What is the future your business is asking for?

Steven Trevino grew up battling opiate and pill addiction — and when the money ran out he made a desperate decision that changed everything. He tried to rob a bank. Then a civilian. He got caught by state police and then the feds — and ended up spending over three years in Texas state and federal prisons. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, he opens up about what surviving Texas prisons really looked like — race fights gang threats and being targeted for refusing to fall into prison politics. He rolled with the Paisas and navigated one of the most dangerous environments imaginable. Then came 20 days in segregation after a prison fight — and the spiritual awakening nobody saw coming. He came out of that cell a completely different person. Released in 2020 with nothing — no license no car and strict parole conditions — he built himself back from absolute zero. And he did it by starting a business called I Scoop Poop — your dog's business is his business. _____________________________________________ #BankRobbery #truecrimecommunity #prison _____________________________________________ Connect with Steven Trevino: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/steven.trevino.3572/ Website: https://www.iscooppoopdfw.com/ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Intro: From Top Salesman to Federal Prison 03:35 How Sales Success Fueled My Addiction 05:55 Hooked on Prescription Pills 09:02 Heroin Addiction & My First Rehab 13:13 Rock Bottom: Losing My Job, Seizures & Crime 16:01 The Botched Robberies That Got Me Arrested 21:22 Facing Federal Charges & Real Prison Time 23:31 Surviving Racial Politics Behind Bars 26:06 Prison Fights & How I Made Peace 32:32 Solitary Confinement & Finding Faith 40:32 Divorce & Reinventing Myself in Prison 49:01 Parole, Transition & the Politics of Getting Out 58:01 Walking Out: Rebuilding Life From Zero 01:03:03 Starting My First Business After Prison 01:11:19 Love, Relationships & Redemption 01:14:47 Scaling the Business & Learning to Win 01:27:01 A Second Federal Case & the Lessons It Taught Me 01:29:29 The Biggest Lessons From It All 01:33:01 Faith, Contentment & Final Thoughts _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

You've been told to get eight hours of sleep your whole life. Dr. Michael Breus — The Sleep Doctor — says that's not only wrong, it may be making things worse. In this conversation with Dwayne Kerrigan, one of the world's foremost sleep specialists breaks down the science of when to sleep, when to drink caffeine, when to workout, and why most people's sleep problems aren't about how much they sleep — they're about when. In this episode: The four chronotypes — Lion, Bear, Wolf, and Dolphin — and why knowing yours could reduce your total sleep while dramatically improving quality; plus why 55% of the population are Bears, and what that means for your nine-to-five schedule The 90-minute caffeine rule: how adrenaline and cortisol make caffeine useless for the first 90 minutes after waking, and when to stop caffeine entirely to protect your sleep The biology of the 1:00–3:00 AM wake-up: every human on Earth wakes up in this window due to a cortisol spike — and Dr. Breus's four-step protocol for getting back to sleep, including the four-seven-eight breathing technique developed by Dr. Andrew Weil for Navy snipers Why alcohol destroys Stage 3 and 4 deep sleep — the physical restoration stage where the brain's glymphatic system flushes beta amyloid and tau proteins linked to Alzheimer's disease — and the exact wine-with-dinner timing strategy that lets you drink without wrecking your sleep Sleep tracking devices: why none of them are accurate for measuring sleep stages, why rings outperform wristbands, why you should only review your tracker data once a week, and how to use trend analysis rather than nightly numbers Dr. Breus's personal disclosure: he has moderate obstructive sleep apnea and stops breathing 26 times an hour — and why he wants every listener to stop avoiding sleep testing out of fear Discover Your Chronotype - Take The Quiz: https://sleepdoctor.com/pages/dr-breus-podcast-dwayne-kerrigan Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Entrepreneurs Sleep Differently 00:33 - Welcome and Guest Introduction 01:06 - Tony Robbins Connection 03:17 - Meet Dr Michael Breus 05:05 - Middle of Night Awakenings 07:40 - Understanding Chronotypes 11:31 - The Lion Chronotype 12:47 - The Bear Chronotype 13:18 - The Wolf Chronotype 14:23 - The Dolphin Chronotype 18:07 - Bad Sleep Habits 20:39 - Morning Workouts and Cortisol 22:27 - Perfect Time for Sex 25:20 - Understanding Cortisol 26:37 - Why We Wake at 3AM 28:57 - Don't Go Pee 30:52 - Don't Look at the Clock 31:43 - Four Seven Eight Breathing 34:59 - Getting Out of Bed 36:28 - Stay Positive 38:06 - Breathing Technique Recap 38:51 - Breathing Techniques Really Work 42:50 - Alcohol and Sleep Quality 46:47 - Caffeine Timing Guidelines 49:49 - Cannabis and Sleep 51:39 - Understanding Sleep Stages 54:29 - Sleep Cycles Explained 56:11 - Sleep Tracking Devices 01:00:08 - Choosing the Right Tracker 01:04:18 - Heart Rate Variability 01:07:17 - Quality Over Quantity 01:08:46 - Sleep Apnea and Testing 01:12:12 - Finding Your Sleep Need 01:12:36 - Closing Thoughts and Stay Tuned for Part 2 Resources mentioned: Several of Dr. Michael Breus' books – The Power of When, Energize!, The Sleep Doctor's Diet Plan, Good Night, and Sleep, Drink, Breathe Four-seven-eight breathing technique — developed by Dr. Andrew Weil Muse headband — brainwave monitoring headband for sleep and meditation Oura Ring — sleep tracking ring Whoop Strap — activity and sleep tracker Apple Watch — sleep tracking The Happy Ring from Happy Sleep — FDA-approved ring for sleep studies Tony Robbins's book Unleash the Power Within Quotes: “Eight hours is a myth, man. So many people try to force themselves to get... The math doesn't even work. Like, the right number of cycles doesn't even end up at eight hours.” - Dr. Michael Breus “ I really, honestly, legitimately feel like I've dumbed myself down a little bit when it comes to, when it comes to my, like, abuse of sleep over the years.” - Dwayne Kerrigan “To be clear, dude, you are your best doctor. When you wake up in the morning, if you feel good, you feel good. Like, you slept well.” - Dr. Michael Breus “ The first liquid that crosses your lips every morning should not, I repeat, not be caffeinated.” - Dr. Michael Breus “ Stop thinking about hours. This is a quality game, not a quantity game. If you get six and a half hours of good quality sleep- As a sleep doctor, I am much more interested than if you get eight hours of crappy sleep.” - Dr. Michael Breus Dr. Michael Breus, Ph.D., is a double board-certified Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Sleep Specialist, and one of only 168 psychologists in the world to have passed the Sleep Medicine Boards without attending medical school.

Women are constantly told to trust their bodies… right up until their bodies start telling them something medicine can't immediately explain. In this powerful and deeply validating conversation, Nicole sits down with Amy Kurtz — certified health coach, patient advocate, speaker, and author of But You Look Fine: Trapped in the Hell Between Sick and Well and How to Break Free — to unpack the emotional aftermath of chronic illness, medical gaslighting, invisible symptoms, and the complicated grief that comes from losing trust in your own body. Amy shares her experience navigating late-stage Lyme disease, seeing 36 doctors before getting answers, and what she calls “medical trauma brain” — the hypervigilance, anxiety, and identity loss that can remain long after physical symptoms improve. Together, Nicole and Amy explore why so many women feel dismissed in healthcare settings, how chronic illness reshapes relationships and self-trust, and why healing is about far more than just getting a diagnosis. This episode is for every woman who has ever walked out of a doctor's office feeling unheard, minimized, or crazy — and for every person who's ever been told, “But you look fine.” We explore: How chronic illness and invisible symptoms impact identity and self-trust The concept of “medical trauma brain” and illness after the illness Why healing isn't linear — physically or emotionally Practical nervous system regulation tools for anxiety and hypervigilance How to support loved ones dealing with chronic illness or perimenopause The connection between women's health, appearance, and societal expectations Why rebuilding agency over your body is essential to healing This conversation is equal parts rage, relief, validation, and empowerment — the kind that makes you feel less alone and more equipped to trust yourself again.

What can you choose to create as a business? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action Simone Milasas talks building a business with choices, questions, contribution, possibilities and chaos. Your business doesn't have to be stressful and you don't have to be overwhelmed. If you have the mindset that you are stressed, overwhelmed or in burnout, you are the one creating that.  There is a different choice available. Let's build a business done different! Questions And Tools: "What awareness did I gain from this?" "What relaxation can I be with my business (project/idea) today?" "Is this relevant?" "What can I be today?" "All of life comes to me with ease and joy and glory." "I'm having this. I'm choosing this. No matter what it takes, no matter what it looks like." "Show me business what you would like to be."   Tools: Business isn't guaranteed to be successful. You've got to be ready to pivot. You can't control a business; you need to navigate it. Stop focusing in on your business and start relaxing. Are you trying to prove your worth rather than know your worth? Sit and just BE with your business What choice can you make today? Where is your energy required? Is your energy required today? Chaos creates. Havoc is a destructive energy. When you are willing to be out of control, you will have chaos. Pull energy into your business. Have so much joy in everything you choose. Engage. Create a flow.  Business is not about being harsh; it's about creating that invitation. Allow your business to show you what else is possible. Get your Bars run. If you are experiencing 'overwhelm' momentarily change what you are doing. What are you making relevant that is not relevant? If you were going to live for the next 100 years/300 years/500 years, what would you choose?  Does it matter what you get done today? Include your body in your business; include your body in everything you choose. You have to ask for it. Don't be invested in the outcome Let the business show you what next. You don't need money, you choose money. What reason and justification are you using to not just start? Don't delay. Start. You've got to be willing to choose it.   Everywhere you haven't allowed yourself to relax with your business, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. Everywhere you have decided you must control your business, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. Everything that doesn't allow you to perceive, know, be and receive everything that is possible, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. How many of you are choosing stress and 'burnout' because that's what everybody else is doing? Everything that is, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds.

What if you didn't have to prove anything to anyone, and you could choose what it is that you actually desire? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action Simone Milasas talks with Viktor and Amanda Anderson about how they co-create as a family. What they have learnt is to allow others to explore whatever they are aware of, with no point of view about the choices they are choosing. And, to be aware of everyone's projections and expectations, but make your own choices based on what it is that you desire. When you choose from your awareness, there will be a thread of communion throughout - with no right or wrong, just choice. Make choices that make you happy. That's when the magic explodes and you have an enthusiasm for the adventure of living!  Questions And Tools: "What would I actually like to create?" "Is this going to work for me?" "What could I choose?"  Tools: What is it that you truly desire? What if you didn't have to prove anything? What if you could take advantage of whatever you have available? Embrace everyone and everything that is contributing to you; don't make something hard that is actually ease. It's okay to have possibilities available. It's okay to have money. It's okay to be born into a good family. Be grateful. There's a generosity in receiving. Acknowledge that you are actually choosing everything - regardless of what is going on. Have no point of view about what others choose; allow each person to explore whatever they are aware of. Choose what you are aware of, and there will be a thread of communion throughout. There is no right or wrong; just choice, and you get to choose. Have each others back. Make choices that make you happy. Everything you've chosen has gotten you where you are today. Don't judge what you've chosen, just keep choosing. When you choose to create your life, you have that enthusiasm. Keep going, keep choosing. If you are currently holding yourself back, who or what are you holding yourself back for and what is the value of that?  Follow your awareness. You've always had possibilities available. Play with exploring choices. When you have points of views and judge yourself, it's not being kind to yourself. If you are willing to be kind to you, possibilities open up and you're willing to receive in a whole other way. It has to start with you. There is so much more possible than what we've currently chosen. When you choose, then you create it. Make a choice and magic explodes. Everywhere you are choosing unkindness and not receiving so you can create separation rather than the vulnerability of being in communion, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds.  If you no longer held yourself back, what else could you choose? Everything that doesn't allow you to perceive, know, be and receive that, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds.

This week, Elle and Vee sit down with kink educator Foxie Lou. This is a masterclass in turning sex from performance into exploration touching on BDSM, play, trust, and connection. From primal wrestling and predicament play to nervous system safety and the fear of receiving, the conversation gets raw fast as Elle realizes her struggle with submission might actually be a struggle with vulnerability. Foxie breaks down why great sex has way less to do with performance and way more to do with curiosity, playfulness, and feeling safe enough to be fully seen. Somewhere between sardine pizza punishments and wrestling your partner on the floor, we uncover the real secret to better sex: stop performing and start playing.Chapters:00:00 — Meet the Kink Educator Making BDSM Feel Human05:11 — Elle admits submission terrifies her and has trouble receiving and Fox immediately goes straight for the emotional jugular14:13 — Power Play, Questions To Always Ask Before Play, The Difference Between Bottoming, Topping, Giving, Taking, and Receiving: Q20:51 — Primal Play, Wrestling, and Getting Out of Your Head31:44 — What the Hell Is Predicament Play?43.23— Accessing Playfulness: Gamifying Relationships and Caretaking01:01:46— Rapid Fire Questions:— The Missing Ingredient in Most Relationships— The Real Secret to Good Sex — How to Stop Living in Your Head During Sex____Guest:: Fpxie Lou Website: https://www.foxieloucoaching.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mxfoxielou/____

How many of you are a control freak of magnitude? You tend to control because you misidentified and misapplied that will create a greater result than not controlling. But you actually stop receiving when you control. What if instead you could trust you and trust that the universe has your back? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action Simone Milasas talks about control versus trust. Being a control freak is not  right or wrong, good or bad - it's actually a skill - but are you using it to your advantage or are you stopping receiving by controlling everything?  What if it's about following the energy and choosing? You have infinite choice, but how many of you justify that you don't? Let's choose something different and be out of control. Let's receive more and be more! Questions And Tools: "The universe has my back, what am I going to choose?" "Universe, show me what else is possible." "Universe, show me some miracles today." Tools: Acknowledge how much you love to control. Trust you! Trust that the universe has your back. If you weren't controlling, what could you change? What would happen if you gave up control? Do you really think control will create greater? Pull energy through you and your financial reality. Everywhere you've decided your financial reality is a problem, turn it 180 degrees, over and over. What lightness, magic, and miracles can you let into you and your financial reality? What have you decided trusting the universe is?  Embrace chaos.  Allow the magic and miracles to show up. Ask for beings who are desiring something different to show up. Learn to lie to others but don't lie to yourself Are you controlling because you think you've got it right? Do you think you have to stay the same because that's how everybody else perceives you?   What are you trying to control in your life that you think will get a greater result than not controlling? Everything that is, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. Everything that doesn't allow you to trust the universe, will you destroy and uncreate it all, times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. What would happen if you were out of control, out of definition, out of limitation, out of form, structure and significance, out of linearities and concentricities with money, finances and wealth creation? Everything that is, will you destroy and uncreate it all times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds.

All the lies you bought about control and being out of control, will you destroy and uncreate it all, times a godzillion? Right and wrong, good and bad, POD and POC, all 100, shorts, boys, POVADs, creations, bases and beyonds. How many of you are not willing to have a sense of peace with your financial reality?

Charles "Cadillac" Anderson joins Locked In with Ian Bick to share his story of spending over 20 years in the Arkansas and federal prison systems. Growing up in a rough neighborhood surrounded by gangs and violence, with his father in and out of his life, Charles was raised by a mother who did everything she could—but the streets pulled him in. Trying to fit in and be accepted led to a robbery charge that landed him 13 years in the Arkansas prison system, where he was sent to a max unit and exposed to extreme violence on a daily basis. In this episode, he talks about being stabbed in prison, witnessing brutal attacks, and what it takes to survive behind bars. After his release, he developed a drug addiction and began dealing, which ultimately led to a federal prison sentence. Charles opens up about hitting rock bottom, the cycle of crime and addiction, and how he finally turned his life around after serving decades behind bars. This is a raw, unfiltered look at prison life, violence, addiction, and redemption. _____________________________________________ #PrisonStory #ExInmate #TrueCrime #PrisonLife #BehindBars #LifeSentence #FederalPrison #lockedinpodcast _____________________________________________ Connect with Charles "Cadilac" Anderson: https://www.facebook.com/charles.cadillac.anderson _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 How He Lost 20 Years of His Life 00:19 Growing Up in Southwest Little Rock 01:19 His Childhood and Family Life 03:37 Trouble Started Early 04:46 First Crimes as a Kid 05:56 Addiction Took Over Fast 07:55 Dropping Out of School 09:49 Missed Chances That Changed Everything 11:07 First Robberies 13:11 Getting Caught 16:13 First Time in Jail 17:46 Learning How to Survive 19:19 Sentenced and Sent to Prison 21:26 Life in Maximum Security 23:33 Violence Inside Prison 26:34 Solitary Confinement 30:56 Getting Out and Starting Over 33:43 Relapse and Losing Everything Again 36:53 Second Arrest and Federal Charges 42:12 Back to Prison 50:33 Prison Politics and Survival 56:12 Finally Getting Out 01:03:43 Turning His Life Around 01:10:10 What He Would Tell His Younger Self _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

What if the key to better sex wasn't about technique — it was about learning to feel your own body again? Taryn Toomey, founder of The Class, joined me live at Eudaimonia to break down how 13 years of somatic movement quietly rewired her relationship with pleasure, sound, and receiving — and why the two aren't as different as you'd think. From faking orgasms in her 20s to purring her way through her "delicious" 40s, Taryn gets raw about her two-year stretch of only receiving oral sex, falling deeply in love after divorce, and what it really means to let someone in — body and soul. Don't forget to watch the full video podcast on YouTube! In this episode, you'll learn:  • Why the sounds you make in a workout and the sounds you make in bed come from the exact same place — and how unlocking one unlocks the other • How Taryn's two-year "oral sex only" era taught her more about receiving, boundaries, and her own body than any relationship ever did • The one breathwork tool that works both in The Class and during sex to get out of your head and back into your body — instantly And if you want to dive deeper into Taryn's work after listening, we've got a little gift for you.
