What if you knew yourself well enough to know when a decision is aligned on a soul level?As the Year of the Snake comes to a close, we're completing a season of stripping away what no longer fits, what we've outgrown, what we're finally ready to release. What remains beneath it all? And do you trust and know yourself enough to follow it?In this solo episode, Jessica offers a grounded reframe for entering the new year with self-trust and intention—without the pressure of making it your “best year yet.” She explores how real alignment comes from honoring subtle, daily shifts, allowing both expansion and contraction, and making space for embodied “no's” that protect your nervous system and energy.This episode dives into manifestation through the lens of the new paradigm, which is rooted in self-worth, clarity, and ease rather than force. If you're feeling caught between motivation and resistance, this conversation will help you reconnect with your inner knowing and move forward with confidence.Find the complete show notes here -> https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: New Year Sale! - EXTENDEDTake advantage of this miracle portal and join The Pathway to manifest your dream life in 2026!

From Hustle to Clarity: Andy Seeley on Simplifying Growth, Marketing & Building Businesses That LastIn this episode, I sit down with Andy Seeley, CEO of Creatively Disruptive, co-owner of Ashworth Strategy, speaker, and creator of CAI (Customer AI),  for an honest, grounded conversation about business growth, marketing clarity, and what actually supports long-term success for founders.Andy's journey spans sales leadership, agency building, economic downturns, and helping hundreds of small and service-based businesses navigate growth without burnout. From opening CarMax locations to supporting kids activity centers, e-commerce brands, and local businesses, Andy brings real-world perspective to what works  and what quietly breaks businesses over time.Rather than chasing hype, hustle culture, or overcomplicated tactics, Andy challenges founders to rethink marketing as communication, build systems that support people, and create businesses that serve life not consume it.We cover:Why hustle alone isn't the answer to sustainable growthThe hidden danger of relying on word-of-mouth as a strategyHow fear keeps founders underpricing, understaffing, and stuckWhy most businesses don't fail at marketing, they fail at follow-upThe role of AI in supporting human connection (not replacing it)Building systems that create freedom instead of burnoutHow downturns create the biggest opportunity for market shareWhy clarity, consistency, and communication outperform complexityThe importance of treating agencies as partners, not vendorsRedefining success as freedom, impact, and time with familyTakeaways:Marketing should feel like communication, not manipulation.Growth comes from clarity, not chaos.Fear shrinks businesses faster than bad strategy.Strong systems give founders freedom — not more work.The best businesses are built to support life, not replace it.

Do you notice the same patterns repeating in your life?What if those patterns weren't random but part of your astrological blueprint, offering guidance for your healing journey? In this light, New Year episode, I sit down with Remy Ramirez—astrologer, mental health coach, and host of the Patrauma Party podcast—for a grounded and expansive conversation on using astrology as a tool for self-awareness, emotional healing, and inner work.We explore what's ahead in 2026 astrology, including the rare Saturn–Neptune conjunction, and how this potent alignment may signal both a collective energetic shift and a deeply personal invitation to change and do the inner work. Rather than predicting fate, we discuss how astrology can help you understand your nervous system patterns, emotional responses, and subconscious themes—so you can move forward with greater clarity and compassion.Remy also shares how receiving her own birth chart reading illuminated the roots of long-held wounds, softened her relationship with herself, and opened the door to lasting emotional healing. If you've been navigating self-love, energetic boundaries, or a season of transition, this episode offers insight, reassurance, and gentle encouragement.In this episode, you'll learn:What the 2026 Saturn–Neptune conjunction may bring collectively and personallyHow astrology mirrors nervous system responses and emotional patternsWhy somatic healing and subconscious work pair powerfully with astrologyHow astrology supports spiritual healing and growthThe connection between your moon sign and mental healthHow your birth chart reveals emotional patternsThe healing power of naming and understanding recurring patternsHow to work intentionally with full moon and new moon energyWhy astrology predictions are about awareness—not destinyThe role of self-respect in healing and relationshipsHow astrology can guide both your subconscious work and next steps with clarityWhether you're in a season of reflection, transition, or spiritual awakening, this conversation offers a reminder: healing doesn't happen all at once. As you learn to trust yourself—and the divine timing of your path, clarity unfolds naturally.Much love,LaurieLaurie's episode on Patrauma Party with Remy RamirezClick here to fill out my Podcast survey for 2026.Click here to learn about my NEW “Nervous System Regulation Starter Kit” Click here to purchase my book: Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting GoFree ResourcesClick here to schedule a FREE inquiry call with me.Click here for my FREE “Beginner's Guide to Somatic Healing”Click here for my FREE Core Values ExerciseWebsiteConnect Please leave me feedback.

My guest today is Merry Korn, author of Fired to Inspired, a powerful teaching memoir that chronicles an extraordinary journey from professional setback to purpose-driven success. Merry's story begins with being fired—a moment many job seekers fear most—but instead of letting that moment define her, she used it as the starting point for reinvention.What followed was not a polished overnight success, but a real, unvarnished transformation. Through strategic pivots, hard-earned lessons, and persistence, Merry went on to build a social enterprise that now employs more than 1,300 people across 30 states, giving hiring priority to individuals facing the greatest barriers to work. Her journey is a roadmap for anyone who has ever felt defeated by a career setback and wondered whether their lowest moment could become their greatest opportunity.Merry's perspective is deeply rooted in resilience. Her role model is her mother, a Holocaust survivor, who taught her the meaning of perseverance and never giving up. That lesson shows up throughout Merry's work and is especially relevant for job seekers who may feel discouraged, fearful, or worn down by a prolonged search. In a time of economic uncertainty and career disruption, her story offers both hope and practical guidance for building something meaningful out of adversity.Key Themes We Explore in This EpisodeIn our conversation, Merry shares insights and tools that are immediately applicable for anyone in transition, including:Turning setbacks into setups for success and reframing career disappointments as opportunities for clarity and growthThe power of informational interviews—what they are, how to use them, and why they are one of the most effective job-search strategiesUsing available resources such as coaches, books, and LinkedIn to build momentum and expand opportunityStaying physically strong during your job search, and how physical health directly impacts emotional resilience and mental well-beingOvercoming fear and uncertainty, with the reminder that this season will endFinding purpose before accepting your next role, and why not jumping at the first offer, can lead to a more fulfilling careerCall to ActionIf you're in the middle of a job search—or know one is coming—this episode is for you. Listen with intention, take notes, and choose one idea from this conversation that you can act on this week.

In this final episode of The Aligned Expansion Series, I'm exploring a truth that has shaped both my personal growth and my business journey: your business is a mirror for your inner growth.So often, we try to fix what feels stuck in our business by changing strategies, offers, or marketing. But what if the challenges you're experiencing are actually invitations to look inward—with curiosity instead of judgment?In this episode, I talk about how patterns around visibility, pricing, boundaries, overgiving, and burnout often reflect what's happening internally—within your nervous system, your beliefs, and your capacity to receive.When we allow our business to become a teacher instead of a problem to solve, growth becomes less about pushing harder and more about becoming more resourced, regulated, and embodied.✨ In this episode, I share:How your business reflects your inner worldWhy recurring challenges are often doorways for personal growthThe connection between nervous system capacity and sustainable expansionQuestions to ask yourself when something feels off in your businessHow aligned inner growth naturally creates outer shiftsThis episode is an invitation to stop making business challenges mean you're doing something wrong—and instead see them as information guiding you toward deeper alignment.If you want support navigating both the inner and outer growth of your practice, come join me inside Grow a Thriving Practice → jillianfaldmo.com/workwithme

If you believed the headlines this year, you'd think generosity was shrinking. Inflation up. Layoffs everywhere. Grant budgets tightening. Every sector talking about a downturn and uncertainty. But inside my world (thousands of podcast listeners, email subscribers, clients, and community members), the story was completely different. This year was record-breaking! Record-breaking campaigns, major gifts, digital fundraising wins, growth for my clients, and for my own business.In this episode, I share the seven biggest lessons that created growth in a year everyone expected to be hard, lessons about donor behavior, clarity, courage, visibility, momentum, risk, and the kind of leadership that drives revenue even when the headlines say otherwise. If you want a roadmap for your next year (one grounded in data, psychology, and lived experience), this is the episode to bookmark.Topics:Why donor behavior outperformed negative economic headlinesHow fast, clear digital sprint campaigns outperformed long, traditional fundraising plansWhere donor friction still kills revenue (and what to fix immediately)Why decisive, courageous action beats cautious planning in a slow economyHow confidence compounds (and fear compounds) in fundraising leadershipWhy do the biggest revenue days happen at the very end of a campaignThe relationship between bold visibility, clear messaging, and attracting the right donorsWhy criticism is a normal (and often healthy) sign of growthThe importance of letting go (donors, systems, or staff) to make room for the next levelWhy you must stop putting donors in boxes and upgrade based on relationship, not assumptionsFor a full list of links and resources mentioned in this episode, click here.Bloomerang is the complete donor, volunteer, and fundraising management solution that helps thousands of nonprofits deliver a better giving experience and create sustainable, thriving organizations.

What if the very thing weighing on you right now is the key to your next level of growth?Many of us carry more than we realize: unfinished goals, unmet expectations, family pressures, and the constant mental load of what still needs to be done.In this episode of Chain of Learning, I share a grounding teaching from a Zen priest in Japan after a Zazen guided meditation session that has deeply resonated with me—and with leaders on my Japan Leadership Experience:“Remove the muda to reveal the buddha.”In Japanese, muda means waste. And in Lean, muda refers to anything that doesn't add value.I've been reflecting on this phrase and its deeper meaning as I process my own life experiences, both personally and professionally.This Zen teaching invites us to look inward: to notice what weighs us down, reflect on what it's trying to teach us, and transform that weight into wisdom.As you move forward—whether at the end of a year or in the middle of a busy work period—this episode offers an invitation to slow down, study your experiences, and release what no longer serves you, so that you can lead your life and work with greater intention, clarity, and a continuous learning mindset.YOU'LL LEARN:What Daruma dolls reveal about resilience, focus, and habits rooted in practice, not perfectionWhat “Remove the muda to reveal the Buddha” means beyond lean – and how reflection helps turn inner weight into wisdomFour additional Zen teachings that apply to effective leadership, helping change leaders move beyond tools to presence, purpose, and a growth mindsetA simple reflection practice to reframe or release muda so it supports – not burdens – your growthThe distinction between goals and intentions, and why letting your being guide your doing leads to more meaningful progressIMPORTANT LINKS:Full episode show notes with links to other podcast episodes and resources: ChainOfLearning.com/62Check out my website for resources and ways to work with me KBJAnderson.comFollow me on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kbjandersonLearn more about my Japan Leadership Experience: KBJAnderson.com/japantrip Get a copy of “Learning to Lead Leading to Learn”: KBJAnderson.com/learning-to-lead Video clip of the daruma temple: Leadership Lessons from Japan's Daruma TempleTIMESTAMPS FOR THIS EPISODE:01:55 Daruma dolls and what they represent03:28 How Zazen meditation can bring you back to inner peace and inner being04:26 What it means to “Remove the muda to reveal the Buddha”06:43 The burden Isao Yoshino carried of what he considered was his big failure as a business leader and the shift in perspective to lift the burden, as highlighted in “Learning to Lead, Leading to Learn”08:07 Four Zen teachings and how to apply them as a transformational change leader12:00 How the burning of daruma dolls each year show reflection in practice13:05 Your intentional practice to help you remove the muda13:36 3 examples of how to use this reflection process to adjust or release so to turn waste into wisdom13:49 Example 1: You've been stuck in constant doing14:16 Example 2: Your plans didn't unfold as expected15:07 Example 3: A relationship has shifted16:38 The distinction between goals vs intentions—being and doing17:31 How to “Remove the muda to reveal the buddha” to release the weight you carry and move forward

If you're constantly eyeing the next certification, tool, platform, or healing modality instead of actually making money and serving clients, this episode is your loving but firm wake-up call.In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson calls out the shiny-object cycle that keeps entrepreneurs busy, overwhelmed, and stuck — and walks you through what actually matters if you want a sustainable business in 2026 and beyond.This isn't about doing more. It's about building the skeleton of your business: the foundational systems that hold your offers, your clients, and your income — so you can stop spinning and start leading.Vickie breaks down the most common distractions entrepreneurs use to delay visibility and responsibility, and contrasts them with the few core elements every business actually needs to function, grow, and make money consistently.If you've been “preparing” for years but not seeing the results you want, this episode will bring clarity — and probably some relief.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why certifications, modalities, and frameworks often become permission slips to avoid leadershipHow rebranding, renaming, and platform hopping quietly stall your business growthThe difference between being busy and building something that lastsWhy constantly creating new offers is often a sign your foundation is missingWhat actually belongs in the “skeleton” of a sustainable online businessWhy one clear offer matters more than a complicated offer suiteHow email, payment systems, and calendars create ease for you and your clientsWhy making regular offers is non-negotiable if you want consistent incomeHow choosing one primary platform can simplify your marketing and increase salesA real example of how a simple, aligned offer brought in revenue without a launchKey Takeaway:You don't need another certification, platform, or healing breakthrough. You need a solid foundation. When your business has a clear offer, simple systems, and a place for people to find and pay you, everything else becomes optional — not urgent.Links and Resources:

What happens when a medical device executive walks away from a stable 17-year career to build a digital marketing agency in one of the most complex industries on Earth? In this compelling episode of The Proven Entrepreneur Show, host Don Williams sits down with Saul Marquez, founder and CEO of Outcomes Rocket, to uncover the untold story of pivoting, perseverance, and the power of trusting your gut in healthcare entrepreneurship.Before he founded Outcomes Rocket, Saul Marquez spent 17 years in medical devices, living what many would call a "dream career." In this candid conversation with host Don Williams on The Proven Entrepreneur Show, Saul shares how he walked away from that security to build a specialist healthcare marketing agency serving health tech, medical device companies, and ambulatory provider groups. If you've ever felt torn between a safe path and a bigger vision, this episode will feel uncomfortably familiar in the best way.You'll hear Saul break down his simple decision framework of "dreams and data"—how he used both gut instinct and real-world evidence from over 2,000 podcast interviews with healthcare leaders to validate his leap into healthcare entrepreneurship. The discussion dives deep into health tech marketing, medical device marketing, and why "you sell like you buy" is one of the most practical mindset checks for any founder, CEO, or marketing leader.

In a world where opinions shift by the hour and culture normalizes anything and everything, how do you stay rooted in who you are and what you believe?In this powerful episode of the Mind Bully Podcast, Norense Odiase delivers a prophetic reminder for anyone stepping into a new season: your life will only grow as deep as your convictions.Drawing from Scripture, personal pain, spiritual growth, and the chaos of modern society, Norense exposes the lies shaping today's culture—and the silent slide of sin that pulls people away from purpose. He challenges listeners to build convictions rooted not in trends, feelings, or societal pressure, but in the unchanging truth of Christ.This episode is part teaching, part testimony, and part wake-up call. If you feel confused, empty, spiritually dull, or pressured to “go with the flow,” this conversation will strengthen your foundation and direct your steps heading into the new year.Why convictions matter more than ever in 2025How society subtly reshapes your beliefs without you noticingThe difference between cultural “acceptance” and Biblical truthWhy sin is a slide—and how to get off itHow to recognize when you're resisting your own growthThe role of Scripture in shaping identity, clarity, and confidenceWhy walking with Christ brings real freedom, not restrictionHow to decide, daily, who you will serveThese verses are directly referenced or reflected in the episode:Romans 8:2 – “The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free.”John 6:63 – “The words I speak are spirit and life.”Joshua 24:15 – “Choose this day whom you will serve.”Genesis 1–3 – Origin of sin, death, and spiritual separationExodus (Pharaoh's hardened heart) – The danger of resisting God“Growth feels unfamiliar because you've never been this version of you before.”“Sin is a slide—easy to get on, hard to stop.”“Convictions rooted in culture shift every day. Convictions rooted in Christ never move.”“If you don't decide who you are, society will decide for you.”“You're not lost — you're being led.”“The Spirit can only quicken what you've rooted in your heart.”Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1l0FZP7IfsKKT19tSICklX?si=PIoi02TMRjGeHIkQbTas-AApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mind-bully/id1586471094Follow NorenseInstagram: https://instagram.com/kingno_Mind Bully IG: https://instagram.com/mindbullypodcast
