Greg is a licensed physical therapist turned serial entrepreneur who manages five successful businesses while working only part-time.Greg breaks down the "4 Levels of Value" that determine your income and freedom in the marketplace. If you feel stuck trading your hours for dollars, this conversation provides the blueprint for shifting from "Implementation" (physical labor) to "Imagination" (solving problems with your mind). They also dive deep into the psychology of relationships, specifically the difference between Givers, Takers, and Matchers, and how a spirit of benevolence can unlock doors you didn't even know existed.Key TakeawaysThe 4 Levels of Value: Understand where you currently sit in the marketplace hierarchy and how to move up:Implementation: Trading time for physical tasks (Lowest value).Unification: Managing and overseeing the implementers.Communication: Moving people to action through speech, writing, or performance.Imagination: Using your mind to create solutions and scale businesses (Highest value).Buying Back Your Time: Why the goal of making more money should always be to purchase more options and freedom.The Givers, Takers, and Matchers Framework: Why Greg suggests avoiding "Matchers" (score-keepers) just as much as "Takers," and how being one of the rare 5% of "Givers" builds an elite inner circle.The Power of Acknowledgment: How Greg uses "Random Acts of Kindness" and the "Beach Walk" method to build high-value relationships simply by acknowledging someone's artistry.Leveraging AI in 2026: How clinicians and entrepreneurs can "productize" their knowledge using tech to create assets that work while they sleep.Send us a textVirtual Rockstars specialize in helping support or replace all non-clinical roles.Learn how a Virtual Rockstar can help scale your physical therapy practice.Subscribe here to our completely free Stress-Free PT Newsletter for your weekly dose of joy.

Christmas Part III: Gifts and Givers Let's work on this together, discovering the true gifts and learning how to be true givers. During Advent, we are invited to look beyond what is exchanged and see what is received from God: love, peace, truth, and new life. As we open ourselves to these heavenly gifts, we are also formed into people who give from the heart. This week, we reflect on how receiving from the Lord leads us to give with joy, generosity, and charity. 12/21/25 If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to Subscribe and review our podcast wherever you get your podcasts.

P.J. Glasser and Kate Constable woke up with a Case of the Monday's, airing out all of their grievances from the weekend, including why we make the worst gift givers out there, why we have no idea where to watch football during the holidays, and another Ravens collapse.

It's December, which means it's a time for giving. But having a giving mindset shouldn't just be for the holidays. In this episode of the Profit Share Podcast, Pres and Linda McKissack unpack one of the most overlooked — and powerful — drivers of long-term Profit Share success: being a giver. They explore why the highest earners in Profit Share don't focus on what they'll get, but on how they can serve, teach, and add value to others. From learning-based leadership and teaching as a recruiting strategy to practical ways agents can deepen relationships through generosity, Pres and Linda show how contribution becomes the true “scoreboard” of Profit Share.You'll hear real-world examples, mindset shifts, and tactical ideas for implementing a giver mentality in 2026, whether through the Influential Agent Model, teaching, coaching conversations, or simply going deeper with agents you already know. The episode closes with a look at how systems, transparency, and technology are helping agents and Market Centers scale recruiting without relying on talent alone.If you're serious about building Profit Share from a place of abundance and want 2026 to be your most influential year yet, this episode is a must-listen!

Morning Mantra: "There are two kinds of people in this world; Givers and Takers.  The Takers might eat better, but the Givers sleep better." Will you be a Giver or a Taker today?Givers advance the world, Takers advance themselves at the expense of others.Givers are relationship oriented, Takers are agenda oriented.Givers understand that we are all connected, Takers separate themselves from others they deem less than.Givers offer grace, Takers offer judgement.Givers can fill their own cup, a Taker is in constant need to have their cup filled by others.Givers appreciate more, Takers criticize more.Life shouldn't be about taking and having, but about giving and living. Each day we get a new opportunity to be the face of God.  To be the face of love.Sleep well tonight knowing you gave the world your love.#BeAGiver  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Christin Fejervary serves at the National Christian Foundation, where she helps understand generous Christians and the patterns shaping their stewardship. Coming from a background in research before joining NCF, Christin has helped execute numerous large studies which have helped shape the current understanding of Christian givers.   This past year, Christin helped lead NCF in some of the most comprehensive research on millennial Christians through the NextGen Stewardship Study, a comprehensive study focused on how young Christians, particularly Millennials and Gen Z, approach wealth and generosity. Christin explains the enormity of the Great Wealth Transfer, projected at $124 trillion to be passed on to these generations by 2048, and the need to understand their unique characteristics and motivations.    Her work highlights how agency, shared family values, and hands-on involvement are shaping this rising generation, as well as the unique opportunities emerging as women inherit a growing share of global wealth. She also describes the practical ways families can cultivate unity through generosity and why younger Christians are eager to bring their whole lives, not just their finances, into God's work.   Whether you are a next generation giver or are navigating how to enable the next generation yourself, you'll find this episode packed with insight.   Major Topics Include: How agency shapes stewardship and spiritual growth Differences between wealth creators, inheritors, and hybrids Generational contrasts in trust, involvement, and giving patterns The rising influence and needs of next-gen women Family unity formed through shared passions and giving Tips for preparing for the Great Wealth Transfer wisely Practicing stewardship through small, hands-on decisions Unlocking whole-life generosity beyond liquid assets Advice for organizations who are trying to engage multiple generations God's invitation to women in stewardship QUOTES TO REMEMBER “I was learning how to pursue a relationship with Jesus in the everyday. It wasn't just about going to church on Sundays. It was really about bringing Jesus into every part of my life.” “In my 20s, when I started to understand this relationship with Jesus, it was something where I could actually have conversations with Jesus and ask for help.” “God just showed up. He provided so much in those early years when we didn't feel like we had much money.” “Faith is the guiding principle in stewarding wealth for all generations.” “The attribute that was most correlated to positivity about wealth was seeing it as responsibility, that it's about God's work in the world and joining God's work in the world.” “Taking action helps your faith. It helps you grow closer to your family. It helps you grow closer to your purpose.” “Women at large and the cohort of next-gen women are more likely to be collaborative, they're more likely to do giving circles, and they're looking for a journey more than a transaction.” “Women and mothers are the biggest influences of generosity in the home.” “Women, especially women inheritors, struggle to find their voice. They don't feel like they have a voice at the table of wealth transfer and those conversations.” “Younger generations want to see the data. They want to see the impact and the numbers. They want to get personally involved because they feel they can make the difference.” “We're seeing more and more people give from the ninety percent of their wealth, not just the ten percent they hold in liquid assets.” “I think God is showing up in tangible ways and urging people to give from all of their wealth and not just their liquid assets.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW National Christian Foundation (see our interview with President Emeritus, David Wills) The NCF Next Gen Stewardship Study Julie Wilson, President of Women Doing Well (see our past interview here) Generous Giving (see our interviews with cofounders Todd Harper and David Wills and CEO, April Chapman) Impact Foundation (see our interview with Founder, Aimee Minnich) The Millennial Impact Report Lilly Family School of Philanthropy – Lake Institute on Faith & Giving The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Luke 21:1–4 | The Widow's Offering   Luke 8:1–3 | Women Supporting Jesus's Ministry WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Gift of the Givers eis dat die Presidensie en regeringsagentskappe ondersoek instel na die rol van Israel en lugrederye in wat vermoedelik mensehandel kan wees. Die woordvoerder Sarah Oosthuizen sê die omstandighede rondom die 153 Palestyne wat hierdie week by die OR Tambo Internasionale Lughawe aangekom het, wek ernstige kommer oor mensehandel en Israel se etniese suiwerings. Sy sê mense is op die webwerf van 'n organisasie genaamd Al-Majd geregistreer:

Die Grensbestuursowerheid sê die 153 Palestyne wat as asielsoekers na Suid-Afrika gereis het, kan 'n 90-dae visum kry om in die land te reis. Die vlugtelinge was gister 12-uur lank op OR Tambo Internasionale Lughawe gestrand nadat hulle aanvanklik toegang geweier is omdat hulle nie die nodige vertrekstempels in hul paspoorte gehad het nie. Hulle het die vliegtuig verlaat nadat Gift of the Givers onderneem het om die reisigers te huisves. Mmemme Mogotsi van die owerheid sê 23 van die 153 passasiers het die land reeds verlaat:

Gift of the Givers vra president Cyril Ramaphosa om Binnelandse Sake en die Grensbestuursowerheid te ondersoek nadat 153 Palestynse reisigers gister toegang tot die land geweier is op die OR Tambo Internasionale Lughawe in Gauteng. Stigter Imtiaz Sooliman sê die owerheid het opgetree ingevolge sy mandaat om passasiers sonder 'n geldige vertrek-stempel toegang te weier. Hy sê Israel het hierdie arme mense se paspoorte doelbewus nie gestempel nie om hul lyding in 'n vreemde land te vererger:

This week on Givers, Doers, & Thinkers, Jeremy Beer sits down with Peter Murphy, senior advisor at the Invest in Education Foundation, to explore the growing movement for education freedom and school choice in America. Their conversation dives into the origins of Invest in Education, the lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, and the new federal legislation—the Educational Choice for Children Act—that introduces a tax credit to encourage donations to scholarship-granting organizations. Jeremy and Peter discuss how this landmark policy could reshape the education landscape, from empowering parents and students with more options to challenging the traditional dominance of public schools and teachers' unions. They also unpack the state-level opt-in process, the bipartisan potential of the initiative, and what this shift means for the future of American education.Let's go! Sponsored by AmPhil, helping nonprofits advance their missions and raise more money: https://amphil.com/.#interview #podcast #newepisode #nonprofitCenter for Civil Society's YouTube Channel

Fundraising is often considered to be transformational, but most of the time it's designed to measure only transactions.

Get the Midterm Rental Insurance Blueprint: https://experimentrealestate.com/#blueprintIn this reflective episode of In The Lab, Ruben unpacks the concept of “relationship equity”—the unseen deposits we make when we give value first without expectation in return—and how this principle has created full-circle moments in his real estate and entrepreneurial journey. Drawing from his own experiences and those of past podcast guests, Ruben highlights how relationships built on giving often return dividends in the form of opportunities, mentorship, and growth.He recalls pivotal lessons from Michael Elefante (Episode 161), whose transparency and content-driven brand inspired collaboration and mutual support, and Michael Shogren (Episode 91), whose Airbnb strategy shifted Ruben's path entirely.

Alan Barnhart grew up in Memphis, where his parents ran a small crane and rigging company. After college he sensed a call to missions just as his parents invited him and his brother to take over the family business. As he wrestled with the decision, God's answer was clear; Alan's full-time ministry was the business world. From day one, the brothers regarded the company as God's. To guard against the spiritual risks of wealth, Alan set a “lifestyle finish line,” capping his personal income at the level of a ministry worker. They also committed to give 50% of annual profits to God's Kingdom. Over the next 39 years, the once-small firm grew toward a billion-dollar enterprise and now channels millions each year into gospel work. Later, Alan and his brother formalized their conviction by transferring 100% of their ownership to a charitable trust, while continuing to lead the company. Alan's example has inspired a generation of givers to steward their families, businesses, and resources with wisdom and courage. You won't want to miss this story. Major Topics Include: Avoiding the dangers of wealth Finding freedom in a financial finish line How God led him to give away his company while still being it's steward Thinking though what to do with profit Developing relationship with the recipients of your generosity  Generosity decisions as a group Responsive giving vs. strategic giving Differences between giving from business capital and giving from personal capital Making difficult decisions in generosity  Relational aspects of being as a business and generosity leader Managing a capped lifestyle with children Thinking through company succession Stewarding your generosity story QUOTES TO REMEMBER “God, I'll go wherever you want me to go.” “My full time ministry was going to be in the business world.” “Jesus warned about money more than He warned about anything else.” “Contentment doesn't come from stuff, it comes from enjoying what you already have.” “Holding things with an open hand has led to freedom.” “God isn't trying to extract something from us. He doesn't want our money, He wants us.” “Generosity breaks the power of greed.” “We say no to 99% of giving opportunities so we can give a big yes to the 1% we support.” “We want to be as strategic in our giving of money as we are in our making of money.” “What does God want us to do with His money?” “There is work to being a steward.” “What we're doing is not crazy.” “We didn't see the company as ours, so our kids never saw it as theirs.” “Be a steward of your story as much as you are a steward of your money, because your story may change someone else's life.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Young Life Journey to Generosity (JoG) with Generous Giving (see our interviews with cofounder, Todd Harper and CEO, April Chapman) Rich Christians in the Age of Hunger by Ronald J.

Philippians 2, Ephesians 3 // Justin White

What fuels a generous life? When we're running on empty, it's hard to give to our family, our work, our friends, or our community. But Paul reminds us that we are strengthened, rooted, and filled in Christ. So whether you feel stretched thin with the kids or weighed down at work, God's fullness can overflow into each part of your life.
