In this episode of The IT Experts Podcast, I tackle one of the most common frustrations I hear from MSP owners every single week, the belief that MSP marketing simply does not work. I hear it constantly. Someone has tried an agency, a friend who knows social media, some pay per click, or a few Facebook ads, and each time the results fell flat. The real issue, as I explain, is not the tactic itself. It is the absence of a system that connects every activity back to booked calls and revenue.    I open by challenging you to interrogate your marketing agency with one question, how does what you are doing connect to more booked calls. I have found that many agencies do not understand the MSP model, focusing on surface level activity like website redesigns and vague positioning work rather than a measurable path to pipeline. Inside The MSP Growth Hub, this connection between activity and results sits at the heart of the New Client Runway framework I teach from day one.    I also address the MSP habit of leaning heavily on referrals. While steady referrals feel comfortable, I point out that this approach leaves owners exposed. If your biggest client leaves or a referral source dries up, you can lose a significant chunk of monthly recurring revenue overnight, with no backup plan in place. This is where account management, paired with consistent MSP marketing, becomes essential for protecting and growing your income.    A central theme of the episode is what I call the stop start marketing cycle. I describe the familiar pattern, a quiet pipeline triggers a burst of marketing activity, a referral arrives, focus shifts back to delivery, and a few months later, the cycle repeats. I call this Groundhog Day marketing and I link it directly to why so many MSPs remain stuck under a million pounds in turnover. Without consistent visibility, you never build the compounding authority needed to be recognised as the expert in your niche.    To fix this, I share five practical steps for building an effective MSP marketing system. The first is committing to a twelve-month runway rather than a three-month test, broken down into quarters and months so you know exactly what to focus on and when. The second is setting leading indicators, tracking visibility, conversations, and engagement rather than only watching for closed deals. I share a real example of a client who needed fresh leads, better numbers, and a profit first mindset, showing how leading indicators reveal what is really happening in your business.    The third step is building weekly consistency. I recommend posting on LinkedIn at least three times a week from your personal profile and a couple of times from your company page, alongside keeping your Google Business Profile updated. I remind you that people buy from people, and visibility builds the trust required before anyone books a call. I also stress that the money is in the follow up, encouraging you to stay professional, purposeful, and persistent with every new conversation rather than sending one message and giving up.    The fourth step is tracking pipeline momentum using our ONCAM framework, One New Client A Month, which helps you understand how many conversations and what conversion rate you need to hit your growth goals. The fifth step is treating MSP marketing as a genuine cost of growth, with a proper budget attached, reported on regularly alongside your other key performance indicators.    I close by reminding you that sustainable growth is built on visibility, not luck. I encourage you to step outside your comfort zone, commit to the process, and trust that consistent MSP marketing compounds over time into a stronger brand, a healthier pipeline, and a more confident position in your market.    Make sure to check out our Ultimate MSP Growth Guide, a free guide that walks you through a proven process to take your MSP from stuck to scalable, without working even more hours. It's 44 pages rammed with advice, insights and inspiration to help you decide what support is available to you now if you want to grow and scale your business.

I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from interest.co.nz. Today we lead with news it is a good job we have sports to allow us a temporary distraction from the geopolitical mess that the US has initiated and which seems to just go on and on. A shut Hormuz and a jump in oil prices is bringing Groundhog Day. Back in the economic world, Tuesday's June CPI release will dominate this week's local data releases. Markets expect an elevated 4% rate, keeping the pressure on the OCR and the RBNZ to contain it. Events in the Middle East aren't helping. The next OCR review is not until September 2 however. In Australia, it will be all about their June labour market release. Markets expect only modest jobs growth and no jobless rate change. But developments between the US and Iran will remain in the global spotlight after strikes escalated, impacting energy prices and interest rate outlooks for central banks. There is not much market-moving economic data expected from the US this week. But earnings season results will be watched for indications and surprises. In Japan, they will release trade and inflation updates (1.6%?). Taiwan will be interesting for its industrial production data. Korea for its Q1-2026 GDP outcome. And Indonesia will review its policy rate again, after the unusual interim hike, and then taking it to possibly 6%. For them it is all about supporting their weakening currency. There is little significant data out of China this week. However, here's something we haven't covered so far. Their June trade data for China shows that its crude oil imports are now at a ten year low. In fact their June crude oil imports were -11.4% lower than a year ago in volume terms. It is a shift that will have global implications. We can also note that China closed nearly 30,000 kindergartens and primary schools in 2025. It is the consequence of the growing demographic slump we have been noting for some time. Recent data released by the Ministry of Education revealed a severe structural divergence: while early childhood and primary education are shrinking rapidly, high schools and universities are expanding to absorb a demographic bulge from earlier birth peaks. Three Chinese airlines have ordered 95 Airbus commercial jets. This has swelled Airbus's non-US order book over rival Boeing. Airbus (89) delivered more aircraft than Boeing (64) in June. Boeing is losing market share fast for clients outside the US, no doubt a direct consequence of reactions to nativist policies from Washington and risks of trade retaliation. Singapore's export growth fell back sharply and unexpectedly in June. Electronics exports remained elevated, but non-electronics exports were unusually weak in the month. Their big decliners were for petrochemicals, food, and non-monetary gold. Trade with the US was especially hard hit. Across the Pacific in Canada, the spread of their enormous wildfires are becoming an international irritant. Canada is struggling to contain them. In an unusual move, the US is refusing to assist, even though Canada sends crews and support to the US when they have wildfire emergencies. There are also major wildfires in many US states as well. In the US housing starts in June which came in +3.6% higher than year ago levels and brushing off their unusually weak May report. But for all the positives that some Fed district factory surveys have shown, these are not showing up in US industrial production data yet. You might have thought the increased local stockpiling surge would be visible by now. But to June, it isn't. US industrial production rose a paltry +0.1% in June to be +1.1% higher than a year ago. And that is its weakest increase in three months. Although consumers are still very negative in their sentiment, there was a notable improvement in the latest survey results from the widely-respected and long running University of Michigan consumer sentiment survey. With the second straight month of 10% jumps, consumer sentiment climbed to its least negative reading since February of this year on the basis of easing price pressures at the petrol pump in recent weeks. All five index components improved, led by significant 20% increases in buying conditions for durables as well as year-ahead business conditions. This month's rise in sentiment was consistent across the population, seen across groups by age, income, wealth, and political party. Will it last? If it truly is directly related to pump prices, then this weekend's outsized jump in crude oil prices (below) and the turn up in pump prices in the past few days, suggests not. Today's pump prices are almost back to month-ago levels when the sentiment survey hit its record lows. Looking backwards over the past month, US data has seen improvements. But these have not been enough to return the Atlanta Fed's GDPNow tracking to where it was in May, so a sharp downshift is still in place. And it is worth noting that 'consensus forecasts' by mainstream economists have not yet reflected that retreat. The RBNZ also produces a GDP nowcast. After a somewhat unexpected blip up two weeks ago, the latest data has returned our Q2-2026 growth to a minimal level. The same for Q3-2026. (There is no Aussie GDP nowcast from an official institution. The Melbourne Institute version won't be updated until the end of the month.) In Australia, the latest weekend's residential auction activity was low, possibly back to levels they had in 2018. They are finally having the housing market correction necessary to address their affordability problems. The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.55%, unchanged from this time Saturday, down a net -2 bps for the week.  The price of gold has risen to US$4017/oz, up +US$12 from Saturday but down -US$83 from a week ago. Silver is now just under US$56/oz, down -US$3.50 for the week. Oil prices are +50 USc firmer from Saturday, up +US$3.50 from Friday at just on US$82.50/bbl in the US, while the international Brent price is now just over US$88/bbl. A week ago these prices were US$71.50 and US$76 respectively so a +16% rise since then. Hormuz transits have been reduced to a trickle overnight There have been just 2 crude tankers and 7 cargo ships exiting over the past 24 hours (4 dark with transponders off) and 9 entering for new loads (6 dark) and almost this traffic isl Iran-linked. The Kiwi dollar is unchanged from Saturday at just under 58.4 USc but up +80 bps for the week. Against the Aussie we are still at 83.7 AUc. Against the euro we are also holding, at just on 51.1 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at 62.3 which is unchanged from this time Saturday, up +80 bps for the week. The bitcoin price starts today at US$64,542 and up +0.8% from this time Saturday, up +1.4% from a week ago. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been low at just over +/-0.5%.

Sustainable ambition isn't about wanting less — it's about knowing whether your drive is coming from desire or from fear, because the two can produce the exact same to-do list and completely different lives. In this episode, Brett Ingram breaks down why genuine ambition can rest and compulsive striving can't, what your nervous system already knows about your goals before your mind admits it, and a simple four-signal framework for checking your own engine so you're not guessing anymore. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why hitting a goal and feeling almost nothing isn't a discipline problem — it's a signal worth reading The hidden difference between two people working identical sixty-hour weeks: one running on desire, one running on fear Five warning signs that ambition has quietly turned compulsive, including a moving finish line and rest that starts to feel illegal Why the body — not the calendar — is the most honest narrator of whether your ambition is sustainable The five types of rest almost no one gets all of, and why scrolling on the couch isn't one of them How career-identity fusion sets you up for an existential crisis the moment the job changes, and how to build a sturdier sense of self The Four Signals of Sustainable Ambition — a practical framework for checking any goal you're currently chasing Episode Timestamps [00:00] Introduction — the goal that felt like nothing when you hit it [01:30] The central idea: sustainable ambition as a different relationship with wanting [02:00] The Two Engines — desire vs. fear, and why they produce identical résumés [07:00] Five warning signs the engine has switched from ambition to compulsion [10:30] What the body already knows — stress cycles, cortisol, and the five types of rest [15:00] Purpose without losing yourself — career-identity fusion and the identity trap [18:30] Where a calling actually comes from — mastery and meaning follow competence [21:00] The Four Signals of Sustainable Ambition, explained and applied [24:30] Sisyphus, Icarus, and Groundhog Day — three stories about the same distinction [26:00] Reflection questions and an exercise for this week [27:30] Closing thoughts Episode Summary Most high-achievers have had this exact experience: you hit the goal — the promotion, the number, the recognition — and instead of the satisfaction you expected, you feel a flicker of relief that evaporates almost instantly, replaced by a new target on the horizon as if the last one never counted. Brett Ingram's central argument in this episode is that this feeling is never a discipline problem. It's information, and it's been trying to tell you something about the engine underneath your ambition all along. The episode opens with what Brett calls the two engines. Picture two people, both working sixty-hour weeks, both building something ambitious, both indistinguishable from the outside. One is running on desire. The other is running on fear. Genuine ambition is curiosity with a direction — it wants to build the thing, solve the problem, get better at the craft, because the effort is in service of something the person actually wants. Compulsive striving looks the same from a distance but is powered by the fear of being inadequate, the dread of stopping and finding nothing underneath the achieving. The cleanest diagnostic, Brett argues, isn't how hard you work or how big the goal is — it's whether you can actually rest without the achievement-shaped hole reopening the moment you stop moving. From there, Brett walks through five warning signs that the engine has switched: identity fusion, where one bad outcome quietly becomes "I am not enough"; a finish line that keeps relocating with no interval of satisfaction; rest that feels illegal, filled with guilt or secret work; feedback from people close to you that gets explained away instead of examined; and chasing an outcome you can describe in vivid detail but can't explain the "why" behind. He shares his own experience building a digital marketing business where something working well only ever produced the thought "what's next to get it to the next level" — and realizing, in hindsight, that he never actually enjoyed the process itself. The conversation then turns physiological. Brett makes the case that ambition isn't only a mindset issue — it's a nervous system issue, and the body has been keeping score the entire time. A healthy stress response mobilizes, handles the threat, and returns to baseline. Compulsive ambition keeps that system in chronic, low-grade activation until it stops feeling like stress and starts feeling like normal. He draws a sharp distinction between passive distraction — scrolling on the couch — and genuine physiological recovery, and names five types of rest worth knowing: physical, sensory, emotional, social, and creative. "You can't out-discipline a body that never gets to down-regulate," he says. "Recovery isn't the reward for ambition. It's the maintenance that makes the ambition sustainable at all." Perhaps the most personal section of the episode deals with identity fusion and career. Brett shares the story of shutting down his first business — a custom-computer company he built out of his basement and grew to seven employees — and describes the day he turned off the lights as closing down more than a business. It was closing down a part of himself, because for four or five years, the business had been his entire identity. This connects to one of the episode's most useful reframes about calling: contrary to the idea that passion is discovered fully formed, Brett argues that mastery and meaning tend to follow competence — you find something interesting, get better at it, and the calling builds itself through the doing, not before it. This is a core thread of the Purpose & Meaningful Work pillar — locating your sense of self somewhere sturdier than a job title, so that when a role ends, the loss is professional rather than existential. The episode closes with the Four Signals of Sustainable Ambition: the engine (want or fear?), the rest test (can you actually stop?), the craft line (are you attached to the work or only the win?), and the enough line (do you have an actual internal definition of "enough," written down and concrete?). Brett reinforces the point with three cultural touchstones — Camus's Sisyphus, happy in the pushing itself; Icarus, whose danger was never ambition but ambition with no ceiling; and Groundhog Day, where the way out was never external. The episode's closing line captures the whole argument: "You're allowed to want more and be complete right now. Those two things were never actually in conflict. Only the fear ever made it look that way." Resources Mentioned Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus — referenced for the closing line "One must imagine Sisyphus happy," used to illustrate meaning living in the pursuit itself rather than a final arrival The myth of Icarus — used to illustrate that the danger isn't ambition itself but ambition with no ceiling or signal for "enough" Groundhog Day (film) — referenced as a modern picture of compulsive striving, where nothing external resolves the loop until the character's motivation itself changes Frequently Asked Questions What is sustainable ambition and how is it different from compulsive striving? Sustainable ambition is a relationship with wanting that doesn't require you to be in a permanent state of deficit in order to function. It's curiosity with a direction — you want to build the thing and enjoy the process, and the effort serves something you actually want. Compulsive striving looks identical from the outside but is powered by fear of inadequacy rather than desire, and it's chasing away from something rather than toward it. How can I tell if my ambition is driven by desire or fear? The clearest test is what happens the moment you hit the goal. If you feel satisfied, even briefly, before moving on to the next thing, that's genuine ambition. If the moment evaporates almost instantly and gets replaced by anxiety about the next benchmark, that's the compulsive engine. Naming the goal out loud and honestly asking "want or fear?" is a simple way to start — and the answer can be mixed. Why don't I feel satisfied after achieving something I worked hard for? That flat feeling usually means the goal was never really the point — it was a way of outrunning a fear of inadequacy rather than building toward something you wanted. Because compulsive striving is about escape rather than arrival, hitting the target doesn't resolve anything. It just reveals that another target was already waiting. What are the warning signs that ambition has become compulsive? Five to watch for: identity fusion, where one bad outcome becomes "I am not enough"; a finish line that keeps moving with no interval of satisfaction; rest that feels illegal or guilt-inducing; feedback from people close to you that you explain away instead of examining; and being able to describe the outcome you want in vivid detail while struggling to say why you actually want it. What are the Four Signals of Sustainable Ambition? The engine — is this goal driven by desire or fear? The rest test — can you actually stop without anxiety flooding back in? The craft line — are you attached to the work itself or only to the win? And the enough line — do you have a real, concrete definition of "enough" that doesn't keep relocating itself past wherever you currently stand? Is it a problem if my identity is tied to my career? Caring deeply about your work is different from being fused with it. Fusion means you no longer exist independently of how the work is going, which is fragile because careers change, companies restructure, and roles end. The goal isn't to care less about your work — it's to locate your sense of self somewhere sturdier than a job title, so a career setback stays professional instead of becoming existential. Does building sustainable ambition mean I have to want less? No. Brett is explicit that none of this is an argument for lowering the bar or wanting less. Sustainable ambition is a healthier relationship with wanting, one where the pursuit doesn't require you to be broken in order to keep going. You're allowed to want more and still feel complete right now — those two things were never actually in conflict.

Stop starting from zero every morning. Build a Claude project that acts as a living knowledge bank for your business and every piece of copy, strategy and decision gets better the longer you use it.In this episode of The Unlock, Oliver Bruce breaks down why most businesses get zero compounding value from AI, how to build a Claude Projects workspace that acts as a second brain, and the iteration loop that makes that knowledge bank smarter over time.Most businesses use AI like a search engine. Every morning you open a new chat, spend 20 minutes explaining your context, get something usable, then repeat it tomorrow. That is not leverage. That is Groundhog Day. AI outputs sound robotic because the model has no context for what you stand for or what you have tried before.The fix is Claude Projects. A project is a dedicated workspace where you upload your core business documentation and train the model on how your business actually operates. Oliver shares how he did this at Pinpoint Media, uploading brand guidelines, tone of voice docs, case studies, onboarding materials and sales call transcripts, then writing a master prompt that turned the project into a strategic sparring partner rather than a yes machine.The real power is iteration. Every campaign result and strategic breakthrough gets dropped back into the project, so it compounds into a living record of what works. It also lets new senior hires quiz the project on day one and compress months of onboarding into days.Oliver shares the five step playbook. Gather your foundational documents. Create the project and upload them. Write the master prompt. Use it for a week and refine. Then feed it results to get the compounding effect.Key topics covered: Why most businesses get zero compounding value from AI Why starting from a blank chat every day kills your leverage How Claude Projects works as a second brain for your business Which documents to upload and which to leave out How to write a master system prompt that pushes back How a knowledge bank compresses months of onboarding into days The five step playbook for building your business brain The iteration loop that makes the project smarter over time Key takeaway: Stop starting from zero. Build your brain, feed it with data, and never explain who you are again.Sponsored by Incard. Sign up now. All your finances. One platform.

After the US launched strikes on Iran this week, Donald Trump said the fragile ceasefire he had co-signed just last month was over. He also reignited his threats to take Greenland, before leaving the Nato summit in Ankara, saying there was a lot of ‘love' and ‘unity' in the room. So how does anyone make progress with a leader choosing to relive a diplomatic Groundhog Day? Jonathan Freedland speaks to Susan Glasser of the New Yorker

If you're stuck wondering why consequences aren't working for your dysregulated child, you're not alone. Learn what's really driving behavior and how to create change. With her Regulation First Parenting™ approach, Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge helps families turn dysregulation into growth. You've tried consequences. You've stayed consistent. And yet… nothing sticks. You're not alone. In this episode, we unpack why consequences aren't working for your dysregulated child—and what actually creates lasting change when behavior keeps repeating.Why do consequences not work for my child's behavior?If consequences were going to work, they already would have.The missing piece? Regulation.When your child's brain is dysregulated, it's not available for learning—no matter how consistent or “correct” your discipline is.Behavior only improves when the brain is regulatedConsequences may stop behavior temporarily—but don't break patternsIt's not bad parenting—it's a dysregulated brainThink about it: You give a consequence, things calm down… and then the same meltdown shows up again tomorrow.Example: Your child loses screen time for backtalk. They stop—for now. But the next day? Same pushback, same struggle. That's not defiance—it's dysregulation.Why does my child keep repeating the same bad behavior?Because you're addressing behavior, not the nervous system driving it.When kids are in fight, flight, or freeze, their brain is in survival mode. That means:No learning is happeningLogic doesn't landCorrection can escalate the situationIt feels like Groundhog Day for a reason.Behavior = communicationMeltdowns = nervous system overloadRepetition = unresolved dysregulationYou're not doing it wrong—you're just doing it in the wrong order.How do I discipline a child who is emotionally dysregulated?Let's calm the brain first. Everything follows.A simple framework—CALMS—changes everything:C – Co-regulate first: Lower your voice, pause, stay steadyA – Avoid personalizing: It's not disrespect—it's dysregulationL – Look for root causes: Fatigue? Sensory overload? Stress?M – Model coping: Show your child how to regulateS – Support effort: Catch progress, not perfectionExample: Instead of immediately correcting yelling, you pause, soften your tone, and help your child settle. Then you teach.That's the shift: Regulation first, then teaching.Want to stay calm when your child pushes every button? Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP and get the FREE Regulation Rescue Kit—your step-by-step guide to stop oppositional behaviors without yelling or giving in.Go to www.drroseann.com/newsletter and grab your kit today.What actually helps my child change their behavior long-term?Not fear. Not punishment. Capacity.When kids feel supported and regulated, they build the ability to:Problem-solve without melting downHandle stress without shutting downLearn from mistakes instead of repeating themYou'll start to notice:Slower escalationFaster recoveryLess defensivenessThat's real progress—not just compliance.

Today we're going all in on classroom technology procedures for smoother lab days—a phrase every harried secondary teacher has Googled at least once, and for good reason. So much time and energy evaporates when students grab devices before they're even needed or get tangled up in logistics that should have been routine. If you're tired of lab days unraveling, this episode's got the honest-to-goodness fix.Let's be real: most lab chaos isn't a student problem—it's a routine problem. The wild, uneven starts. The blank stares. That group halfway into cleanup before anyone else gets started. All symptoms of not setting the right structures. Maybe students grab laptops when they walk in, not realizing they're supposed to wait. Or nobody touches the gear, and suddenly you're losing 15 minutes to logins, charging, or “is this thing even working?”. Those little gaps? They cost you instructional time and your sanity.Here's what you should know: technology and lab days force students to make more decisions than the average period, and unless we answer those questions first—Who's my partner? Where's my role? What do I do when I'm done?—they'll fill in the blank their own way (usually not the way you want). The real solution isn't a fancier device—it's clear, practiced procedures. When you make the decisions for them in advance and build it into the bones of your classroom routines, everything changes.The show dives hard into specifics, breaking down three types of classroom technology procedures every secondary teacher needs before school even starts. The big one for today: lab day procedures. That's right—how you assign groups, create permanent A/B designations (rotating roles instead of every lab day feeling like Groundhog Day), who grabs materials, how cleanup works, and even what to do with half-finished projects. One unbeatable trick for stopping side conversations before they start: review a brief lab slide highlighting the day's unique elements before revealing group assignments. That single shift prevents movement and chatter before you're ready for it.There's wisdom here from trial and error, including a memorable moment when a paper airplane factory simulation fell flat—not because the content was bad, but because students never had a consistent group structure to slot into. That clarity hit home: structure isn't your enemy. Structure is what makes real learning (and risk-taking, and tinkering) possible in a secondary classroom.You'll get tips for making the routine visible and idiot-proof. Think: role cards posted for easy reference, a group assignments system that never changes up so students don't have to mentally juggle “am I yellow today, or B or...wait...who's my partner again?” Teachers—especially those in CTE, electives, or science—will love the practicality: slide signals, photo reminders of what a perfectly reset workspace looks like, strategies to address the “what if half the groups are off task?” problem, and the permission to pause for “just in time” teaching if the wheels come off.Multi-prep teachers, secondary classroom warriors, and anyone who's ever lost time (or their temper) to logistics—this episode is a must-listen. You'll walk away ready to build routines before your students touch a device, streamlining lab days, and freeing yourself up to teach instead of troubleshooting.The bottom line? Calm, self-sufficient classrooms don't run on charisma. They run on intentionally built routines that save everyone—from students to the teacher at the front—a world of stress. If you're aiming for work life balance in the new school year, start here. One routine at a time. Host Khristen Massic wraps it with tough love and a reminder: if your students wouldn't know what to do tomorrow if you lost your voice, you know where to fix first.Ready to make tomorrow lighter? Don't just survive lab days—own them.

Dana Grant has built her work around helping people align with universal principles, but she is the first to tell you she did not start there. She was the woman setting unbreakable corporate sales records while, behind the curtain, she was quietly dying. Saturated with enough medication to, in her words, kill an elephant, living with irretractable migraines and a body breaking down, she reached a moment in her kitchen where she tore up her prescriptions with no solution and no idea what came next. Weeks later, she learned she had seventeen forms of staph on her leg and might lose her legs. She kept them. Last September she walked the Camino. That decision, made before any answer arrived, became Dana’s living definition of what she calls first cause. You must choose change first, she explains, and only then does the universe begin to respond. The synchronicities that followed, including her uncanny alignment with the late Louise Hay, convinced her there are no coincidences, only signs for those willing to wake up and pay attention. It was this turn, not inspiration but a refusal to keep living as she was, that led her into the work she does today. Stop handing out the golden tickets For years, Dana worked as an intuitive, handing people the answers, the direction, the way forward. Her business exploded, with a waiting list of a year or two and clients willing to pay almost anything for certainty. But she noticed it was not empowering anyone. It was creating dependency. So she stopped, closed her readings podcast, and chose a harder path: teaching people to sit in the uncomfortable zone and make their own decisions. The lesson behind her now reads simply, trust the process. Much of the conversation centres on the stories we tell ourselves. Roughly ninety-five per cent of how we navigate life runs below our awareness, Dana explains, and most of those repetitive thoughts are negative, which is why so many people feel trapped in their own Groundhog Day. Her antidote is the one degree, the single different action each day that, like a plane shifting course on the way to Hawaii, eventually lands you somewhere entirely new. Standards, not perfection Dana draws a clear line between self-protection and self-sabotage. What holds people back, she argues, is rarely a lack of effort. It is worthiness. When you do not believe you are worthy, you sabotage, no matter how much you achieve. What people truly fear is not scarcity but stepping over what she calls the terror barrier into everything new, where the ego can no longer protect them. She speaks candidly about her own addiction to perfectionism, the difference between attracting and chasing, and the courage of being seen. We attract in this life, she says, we do not chase. Some of the most moving moments come when Dana refuses to shame the past versions of herself who created the stories she needed to survive, and when she describes the ongoing work of being present for her three grown daughters, choosing consistency and accountability over defensiveness, and holding space for what cannot be fixed, only honoured. Dana leaves the audience with three golden nuggets: The Truth vs Story reset. When something triggers you, pause and separate the facts from the story you are telling yourself. Ask what else could be true, and you interrupt the spiral. The 10-minute self-trust builder. Each day make one small promise you can keep in ten minutes or less, then keep it. Confidence is built in small, reliable ways, not big leaps. The Does It Feel Like Love check-in. Before any decision, ask whether your choice is rooted in love or fear, so you act from self-respect. It is a generous, grounded conversation about choosing yourself, releasing the stories that keep you small, and remembering that the power to choose always lives in the present moment.

Stephen Tobolowsky has gifted us with indelible character performances while living an extraordinary life that spans from Texas roots to show biz lore to telepathy and beyond.Stephen reflects on his earliest pull toward Hollywood, when even as a child playing cowboys, he imagined the action as if it were being filmed. That instinct would carry him from Texas to Broadway to Los Angeles, constantly seeking opportunities to create. And his capabilities stretch beyond acting and music to include a Universe connection that has invited intriguing insights, unexplained knowing and“coincidences.” In fact, Stephen's abilities inspired David Byrne to write a song called Radiohead which led the band Radiohead to become exactly that.Best known by many as Groundhog Day's painfully persistent Ned Ryerson, Stephen comes loaded with behind-the-scenes intel on the film's famously complex shoot, during which he and Bill Murray (portraying a weatherman!) were kept on constant standby to shoot the scene in every possible weather condition for director Harold Ramis. The conversation winds from Stephen's participation in Thelma & Louise's iconic final moment to Brad Pitt's instant star quality to a chilling moment, on location for  Mississippi Burning, were Stephen, playing a KKK grand wizard, was pulled aside by a Klansman and told, “We will be watching you.” Stephen opens up about his collaborations and creative relationships, including his connection to playwright Beth Henley and how he helped shape her Pulitzer Prize-winning Crimes of the Heart and his enduring love story and best-friendship with his wife, Actress/Director Ann Hearn.From Memento to Silicon Valley, Stephen reflects on the wide range of roles he's brought to life, offering insight into Christopher Nolan's storytelling brilliance, Norman Lear's landmark contributions and the stark terror of performing Live In Front Of A Studio Audience. He also speaks candidly about being entirely recognizable and shares what folks tend to run over and say when they become HIS Ned Ryerson!And Stephen brings his masterful storytelling to IMDB Roulette, covering One Day At A Time, The Goldbergs, Spaceballs, Glee and Nobody Wants This while weaving Hollywood history with personal perspectives and navigating the curious intersection of art and life.In current media--Weezy: Outlast The Jungle on NetflixLisa: Book, The Correspondent by Virginia EvansPath Points of Interest:Stephen Tobolowsky BooksStephen Tobolowsky - WikipediaThe Tobolowsky Files PodcastStephen Tobolowsky on IMDBStephen Tobolowsky on FacebookOutlast The Jungle The Correspondent by Virginia Evans

After betrayal, one of the most exhausting patterns couples hit is what I call the Groundhog Day of disclosure: the betrayed partner asking the same questions again and again, while the partner who caused the harm feels like nothing they say is ever enough. In this episode, we unpack what's actually happening underneath that loop — why the repeated question isn't an interrogation but a nervous system trying to build a floor under itself — and how both partners can survive it without drowning.We talk about:Why answering "logically" doesn't create safety after betrayalHow consistency and tone build trust at a body levelThe despair of "nothing is ever enough" — and the real risk it createsPractical tools for both partners, plus a way to face the loop as a teamEnjoyed This Episode?If this conversation resonated with you, here are three ways you can support the show:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leave a Review

Groundhog Day Recovery: Why You Keep Ending Up Back Where You StartedHow many times have you told yourself that tomorrow will be different?Tomorrow you'll eat properly.Tomorrow you'll stop compensating.Tomorrow you'll stop negotiating with the eating disorder.Tomorrow you'll finally do recovery “right.”And yet somehow… you end up back in the same place.The same thoughts.The same rules.The same exhaustion.If that feels familiar, this episode of Fly to Freedom is for you.In this solo episode, I'm talking about one of the most frustrating patterns I see in eating disorder recovery — making progress, only to quietly undo it later.I call this Groundhog Day recovery.It's that exhausting experience of trying so hard to recover while repeatedly finding yourself back in familiar behaviours — restricting, compensating, over-exercising, body checking, tightening rules, or promising yourself that tomorrow will be the day everything changes.In this episode, I explain why this happens and why it has far less to do with willpower than you may think.I'll help you understand how your nervous system becomes attached to familiar patterns, even painful ones, because familiarity feels safe. I also explore why eating disorder behaviours are rarely just about food. More often, they serve a deeper purpose — creating safety, control, certainty, protection, or identity.Most importantly, I introduce one of the most powerful concepts in recovery:This is the moment after you do something brave — perhaps eating more, resting, challenging a rule, or allowing discomfort — when anxiety rises and the urge to “fix” everything becomes intense.That is the moment where the loop either continues… or begins to break.Recovery doesn't require perfection.It asks for something much simpler — and much harder.To stay with discomfort for just a little longer than you normally would.That is where change begins.Why eating disorder recovery can feel like living the same day on repeatHow the brain and nervous system become attached to familiar sufferingWhy compensatory behaviours can feel temporarily relievingThe hidden purpose behind repetitive recovery patternsWhy the eating disorder loop often protects you from deeper fearsHow to identify your personal reset momentWhy courage is only needed for the next step, not the entire journeyHow small interruptions create lasting changeIf you keep asking yourself:Why do I keep ending up back here?Why do I keep undoing my progress?Why can't I stay committed to recovery?I want you to know something important.You are seeing a pattern.And patterns can change.Inside The Eating Disorder Recovery Circle, I teach a deeper workshop called Groundhog Day, where we map out your personal recovery loop, uncover what is driving it, and begin interrupting the cycle with real support.Inside The Eating Disorder Recovery Circle, you'll find:24/7 community supportThe Feelings NavigatorRecovery courses including the Fear of Weight Gain CourseMonthly live Q&As and coaching supportPractical tools to help prevent relapse and move beyond quasi-recoveryJoin The Eating Disorder Recovery Circle here:The Eating Disorder Recovery CircleExplore the Feelings Navigator here:Feelings NavigatorIf this episode resonated, please follow the podcast and leave a review.One different choice in one difficult moment can begin changing everything.

What would you do if you were stuck reliving the same day on loop? Splurge with your ever-replenishing bank account? Travel, so you can experience more than one season? Would it feel freeing, or lonely? In Solvej Balle's series On the Calculation of Volume, Tara Selter is stuck reliving the same November 18th. Nearly 40 years after the idea first came to Solvej, her time loop tale is speaking to readers around the world with its explorations of love, hope, despair and isolation. Solvej tells Mattea about why she initially resisted writing this story, the upside of aloneness, and what she really thought of the movie Groundhog Day.Liked this conversation?

I'll be honest, this one's not about your hormones. Well, not entirely. Because you can fix your labs, clean up your food, do all the right things… and still feel like you're just going through the motions. Still feel like something's missing. Still feel like Groundhog Day.In this episode, I'm getting into why:Feeling dead inside has nothing to do with laziness and everything to do with forgetting how to liveWhy your body, your money, and your results all flatline when you're running on survival modeThe identity shift that actually brings the color back — and why no protocol on earth can do that for youSupport the showHosted by Casey Shipp — 3000+ transformations, Self-Made Millionaire, High Priestess, Writer, Fitness Cover Model, and Founder of the Hotbody App.$30M client wins | $7.8M sold onlineRich isn't rare.

The situation with Iran continues to feel like Groundhog Day, except this time, believe it or not, there may actually be movement.Earlier this week, I mentioned that I had heard from people in the know that the United States military was coiled to strike Iran and was looking for either provocation or justification to resume major military activity. That appeared to happen when Iran shot down an Apache helicopter that was escorting oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz. We also learned that more than 100 million barrels of oil had moved through the strait under U.S. protection over the last month.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.One of the reasons that caught my attention is that gas prices in the United States have been falling pretty dramatically. It was a head-scratcher. If the Strait of Hormuz was effectively stalled, then what explained the drop? Was it a global rerouting of supply? Was there a China component that had been negotiated and never publicly heralded? I didn't know then, and I don't know now, but the announcement about oil shipments at least provides part of the picture.What's more interesting is what happened next. After one night of military strikes, the second night was canceled. Donald Trump said that's because we're at the point of a deal, one that has supposedly been signed off on by all available parties in the region. It appears to resemble the memorandum of understanding that's been floating around for weeks, although nobody really knows because we still haven't seen the text. We don't know if it's real. We don't even know exactly what it says.The administration's definition of success has been fairly consistent: Iran gives up its nuclear material and removes the nuclear threat. If that's actually in the agreement, then it would be meaningfully different from what came before. The obvious question is what Iran gets in return. The reporting and public comments suggest that Tehran is focused on access to frozen assets and getting money quickly. Whether that money goes directly to Iran, whether it's routed through humanitarian aid, and what conditions are attached are all questions that still need answers.The strongest sign that something may actually be happening is coming from inside Iran. Reports indicate that FARS, the IRGC-controlled news agency, is acknowledging that a draft memorandum of understanding exists, that the United States has approved it, and that Iran is likely to do the same. The bigger question is whether any agreement can actually be enforced. Iran's leadership appears splintered. We've seen officials make commitments before, only to have military figures or IRGC commanders move in a different direction. That's why the real issue isn't whether a deal can be signed. It's whether anybody in Iran has enough authority to keep it.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:48 - Iran00:08:38 - Interview with Karol Markowicz00:36:19 - Update00:37:19 - DeSantis and AI00:42:56 - FISA00:44:42 - Director of National Intelligence00:47:17 - Interview with Karol Markowicz, con't01:07:27 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Steve Rhode, the old Get Out of Debt Guy, and Damon Day, the new Get Out of Debt Guy, dig into one of the biggest money mysteries out there: why do so many people with decent incomes still feel completely broke?This episode starts with the honest truth that debt problems can feel like financial Groundhog Day. The details change, but the panic, pressure, and confusion are often the same. Steve and Damon talk about why people in debt crisis can get pushed into quick decisions, how debt relief companies and financial “solutions” may have their own agenda, and why it is so hard to know who to trust when you are scared and trying to survive.They also get into the reality of rising costs, housing, food, transportation, kids' activities, lifestyle expectations, budgeting, emergency savings, credit cards, debt settlement, bankruptcy, and the simple but painful rule of holes: when you are in one, stop digging.The big takeaway is this: getting out of debt is not just about cutting expenses. It is about creating breathing room, understanding your real numbers, making better decisions, and finding a way to get on the asset train before it leaves the station.You can find more debt help, articles, and resources at GetOutOfDebt.orgDamon Day offers free consultations and can be reached at DamonDay.com

It's our 9th anniversary! Noel celebrates the milestone with the great Stephen Tobolowsky. The actor is known for film roles such as insurance agent Ned Ryerson in Groundhog Day and amnesiac Sammy Jankis in Memento. Stephen had a memorable role in Spaceballs. Could he be in the upcoming sequel?  Stephen talks about his horrible experience working with Steven Seagal in The Glimmer Man. He guest-starred on Seinfeld as Tor Eckman, an eccentric holistic healer in the season 2 episode, The Heart Attack. Stephen has played more principals than any actor in TV history (not factchecked).  He also played in a band in his hometown of Dallas, which briefly featured the late great Stevie Ray Vaughn. We discuss our kidney stones, Bar Mitzvahs and more!

No, the final determination didn't lead to a final determination – which is frustrating; however, this isn't another Ground Hog Day scenario within this 3+ month conflict. There appears to be reason to believe that substantive, historic, progress is being made.

The Pittsburgh Pirates dropped another frustrating game, and it followed a script that has become way too familiar: Paul Skenes gave them a chance, the offense did just enough to keep the game alive, and the bullpen let it get away. On this NS9 Postgame Show, Neil and DiNardo break down another rough night for the Pirates relief corps, the continued struggles from the right-handed bullpen options, Brandon Bidois' outing, Johan Ramirez entering another close game, and why Don Kelly may not have many trustworthy choices right now. They also discuss Paul Skenes' strong start, the defensive mistakes behind him, the Pirates' issues when trailing late, Carmen Mlodzinski moving to the bullpen with Jared Jones returning, and the roster questions around Tyler Callihan, Esmerlyn Valdez, Konnor Griffin, Ryan O'Hearn, and Nick Gonzales. The Pirates are still hanging around, but this bullpen problem is no longer a small concern. It is becoming the main thing standing between this team and winning games it should be winning.

Step into a raw, delicious and love-affirming conversation with Jenn Pinkerton, psychotherapist, certified sex therapist, relationship expert, and host of the Red Head Reveal Podcast, on this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light. Jenn's work centers around one powerful truth: we are wired for connection, yet so many people are living in profound disconnection from themselves, their relationships, and their deepest desires. I agree! Jenn shares her personal journey through grief, abandonment, and identity after losing her father at a young age. She vulnerably opens up about becoming a "chameleon" in her early life, shaping herself to fit the needs of others while losing connection to her authentic self. That wound eventually became the doorway into her life's work: helping people return to who they truly are beneath the coping strategies, fear, shame, and survival patterns. We explore the four core wounds that shape so many relationships, including abandonment, not feeling good enough, not belonging, and not feeling worthy. Jenn beautifully explains how these wounds influence intimacy, communication, defensiveness, sexuality, perfectionism, avoidance, and even the kinds of relationships we choose. Rather than blaming the past, she invites us into deeper self-awareness, compassion, and responsibility for how these wounds show up in our present-day lives. Jenn also shares her groundbreaking work helping couples heal after infidelity, revealing that affairs are often less about another person and more about the longing to feel alive, connected, desired, and emotionally seen. We discuss how betrayal can either become the ending of a relationship or the catalyst to build an entirely new one rooted in honesty, vulnerability, emotional safety, and genuine connection. We also talk about: -Why connection is our birthright -Emotional safety as the foundation of intimacy and desire -Healing abandonment wounds and relationship insecurity -The difference between physical arousal and true desire -Why vulnerability is essential for intimacy -Infidelity, betrayal, and rebuilding trust -Overcoming defensiveness and learning repair -Desire mismatch, shame, and purity culture -The importance of curiosity, creativity, and novelty in relationships -"Groundhog Day" marriages and how couples lose connection -Empty nesting and rediscovering joy together -How slowing down creates deeper emotional intimacy -Why consideration may be the highest form of love -The power of emotional presence, co-regulation, and nervous system safety This episode is a reminder that relationships are not meant to simply survive. They are meant to change, evolve, deepen, awaken, and expand us. Jenn's wisdom invites us to slow down, soften the armor, and courageously reconnect to ourselves and the people we love most. It is a conversation about the perfectly imperfect journey of intimacy, healing, vulnerability, and the profound beauty that becomes possible when two people are willing to truly see each other authentically again.

Last week was yet another week filled with optimism and record highs for the major stock indexes – while cryptos continued their massive muti-year underperformance and gold and silver took a breather once again. The optimism around stocks continued a consistent theme... 1) Belief that the AI driven economy continues to be so powerful investors can look past perceived short-term inflation and related economic concerns and... 2) Hope for a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz – which is the Ground Hog Day like-scenario we found ourselves in on Friday. 

The year was... Czechoslovakia was dissolved, creating the Czech and Slovak Republics. Martin Luther King Jr. Day became a federal holiday. What was known as the Great Blizzard took place March 12th and 13th of this year. The first World Trade Center bombing took place. The #1 song was I Will Always Love You, by Whitney Houston and if you still haven't gotten it by now...Bill Clinton was sworn in as the 42nd President of the United States.

It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 31 May 2026, and on general sale after this date. Field of Miracles by Lauren Mooney and Stewart Pringle The Doctor, Tegan and Turlough arrive in the quaint village of Heatherington in 1951. But something strange is happening. In an England of post-war austerity, Heatherington is thriving - the shops are full of produce and everyone seems to have everything they've ever wanted, even if what they've wanted is the dead to return to them. The Doctor and his friends must stop the creeping invasion of the Asteri, wish-granting crystalline organisms of awesome destructive power, before they extract a terrible price from the villagers. Helter Skelter by James Moran When a bio-engineered planet and amusement park undergoes a critical malfunction, the entire planet tears itself apart - and the Doctor, Tegan and Turlough are thrown back to their arrival, trapped in a repeating time loop. But for some reason, only Tegan can see the loop, not the Doctor - it has been hidden from him somehow. So why can Tegan see it, and how is she going to fix it? Land of Fools by Lauren Mooney and Stewart Pringle The TARDIS arrives in London, 1980, but something has gone wrong with the timeline. The city is a quasi-police state, overseen by a mysterious new company, Luqos, which promises miraculous gifts to its followers. As Tegan takes off to reconnect with an old friend, and the Doctor teams up with young activist Zan, Turlough is pulled into the heart of Luqos by the shadowy 'M', where they discover an old enemy at work beneath the city. Please note: the collector's edition CD box set is strictly limited to 1,500 copies Recorded on: 15-17 October 2025 Recorded at: The Soundhouse and The Video Factory, New Zealand Producer Sonny McGann said: "Turlough, Tegan and the Doctor are back! We're returning to Earth, where a new threat has emerged wielding immense psionic power. In an England suffering from post-war austerity, one village appears to have everything they've ever wanted. Some will pay any price to see a wish fulfilled - a choice which may ripple through time. "Meanwhile, when a visit to an amusement park on a bio-engineered planet traps the Doctor and his friends in a time loop, one of our companions will have to step up to prevent the planet from tearing itself apart. Three new stories full of wit, emotion, and good technobabble, according to Peter Davison!" Producer Stewart Pringle, co-writer of the first and third episodes, said: "Tegan and Turlough are just great, aren't they? It's so lovely that this set is coming out around the time of Season 21 landing on Blu-ray because it's such a glorious period of Doctor Who. Field of Miracles is our tribute to The Android Invasion with shades of The Wicker Man." The second episode's writer James Moran added: "I will always refer to this story as Tegan Jovanka's Groundhog Day, which tells you all you need to know up front. It made me endlessly amused that I'd come up with a plot almost custom designed to make Tegan as angry as possible. And that was pretty much deliberate, to see how Janet would run with it!" The box set's other writer Lauren Mooney said: "Land of Fools is the Fifth Doctor in the 1980s with shades of Resurrection of the Daleks, but also a vibe of the Sylvester McCoy years. It's a proper little dystopia in a Back to the Future Part II mould, and it leads somewhere that we hope is unexpected. It's a thrill to write for this TARDIS team – the bickering, friction and lack of bonhomie gives this era such a delicious flavour of its own."

Iran keeps sending proposals that go nowhere, Scott Bessent says the economic blockade is suffocating the regime, and prediction markets now show southern states above 50% to redistrict before the midterms. Plus, Tucker Carlson gives a baffling New York Times interview, and hard data shows taking your kids to church is one of the most powerful predictors of success in life.
