https://mfbpodcast.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/MFB+SHOW+543+Darius+Ross.mp3Subscribe: Email | TuneIn | RSSInterview With Darius RossHow to Turn Homelessness Into a Coaching Empire With The TPS BlueprintOn today's show I have the pleasure of welcoming author, transformational coach, and serial entrepreneur Darius "Dman" Ross to talk about the TPS Blueprint — his framework for turning trauma into triumph and building a life and business on your own terms.On the outside, Darius "Dman" Ross looks like a man who has always known how to win. Look closer, and you'll find someone who lost everything first — and built something extraordinary from that experience.Darius Alexander Ross was born on July 16, 1965 in Laurel, Mississippi, and raised in Chicago. He attended Chicago State University, Wright College, Lake Forest College, and the International Academy of Design. He started his career in banking and went on to become a certified business broker, merger and acquisition intermediary, commercial real estate broker and appraiser, and commodities trader. He has served on multiple boards — including the New York City High School of Economics and Finance Business Advisory Board — and has been listed in Marquis Who's Who as a noteworthy commodities trader and philanthropist.Then there was the period when it all came apart. Darius has spoken openly about experiencing homelessness. Not just hardship — homelessness. That kind of loss strips away every story you've been telling yourself about who you are and what you're worth. For most people, it breaks them. For Darius, it became the raw material for something that would define his life's work.From that experience, he built the TPS Blueprint — Transforming Trauma into Triumph. At its core, the framework is simple: adversity is not something to survive, it's something to use. The pain of your worst experiences contains intelligence about who you are, what you can endure, and what you're capable of building. His "guerilla strategy" teaches individuals how to extract that intelligence and convert it into fuel for personal and professional growth. His HGDR model — Hustle, Grind, Define, and Refine — gives it structure and traction.The people Darius coaches are not drifting. They are entrepreneurs who've hit a wall. Leaders who've lost their edge. High-net-worth individuals who've built wealth but haven't built meaning. They know how to work. What they need is someone who can help them understand why their past trauma keeps showing up in their present performance — and what to do about it.Today, Darius works with Fortune 500 companies and high-net-worth individuals. He has authored multiple books, including Mastering the TPS Blueprint: Transforming Trauma into Triumph and Leadership DNA: Shaping a Thriving Business Culture. He has been a guest on top podcasts, economic panels, and business conferences. He plays scratch golf. He is building toward a $100 trillion infrastructure holding group with plans to acquire and scale more than 1,000 companies globally.To learn more about Darius and get your copy of Mastering the TPS Blueprint, click the link below.

Here's to finding the community and connection your soul craves (and God created you for!) in a world that is tempting us to disconnect. My friend, Ashlee Gadd, wrote a new book alongside a handful of other authors that blends beautiful encouragement, essays, recipes, and tips from a gospel-centered approach to community and friendship. It's raw, it's honest, and it's life-giving. We're diving into what friendship looks like in busy seasons, how to stay consistent, the freedom to host without pressure of perfection, and leaning in when the world tells us to lean away from one another. With faith at the cornerstone, this episode is refreshing and like a whisper of rest. You're in good company, friend. Watch Truth Talks with Tara on YouTube here!

Whether you're a self-proclaimed morning person or not, don't shy away from this episode! Tara sat down with her friend and best-selling author, Jennifer Dukes Lee, once again and it was powerful. After studying every single morning referenced in Scripture (you heard that right!), Jennifer was compelled to write about the spirituality, intentionality, and importance of mornings. In our conversation today, Jennifer shares her own experience, why mornings are good for the soul, how to implement rhythms of grace with God, and enjoy Him even more. No matter what your morning routine looks like, God's mercies are new. Enjoy the listen, friend. Watch Truth Talks with Tara on YouTube here!

It's the final episode of our parenting series here on the podcast and we're closing it out with a sweet and simple Q&A. We asked you over on Instagram, YouTube, and email for questions and here are some of those.
https://media.blubrry.com/my_future_business/mfbpodcast.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/MFB+SHOW+542+Kenny+Stoddart.mp3Subscribe: Email | TuneIn | RSSInterview With Kenny StoddartIdentity Gain: Why Your Greatest Strength Comes After Your Biggest CrisisHi, and welcome to the show!On today's show I have the pleasure of welcoming former global cybersecurity executive, IronMan World Championship triathlete, and the founder of IronMind Advisors, Mr. Kenny Stoddart, to talk about “Identity Gain”, the proprietary framework he created after experiencing what many high performers never admit out loud: the quiet collapse of identity.There's a version of success that looks exactly right from the outside. The title, the salary, the accolades; but they feel completely hollow on the inside. Kenny Stoddart lived that version for nearly three decades, and what he built from the wreckage of it is changing the way high performers think about identity, leadership, and what it actually means to be strong.A former global cybersecurity executive who spent 27 years with VeriSign, Symantec, and Sectigo, Kenny drove hundreds of millions in channel revenue and earned President's Club honours sixteen times. By every external measure, he was winning. Behind that career, he was simultaneously navigating addiction and serious health challenges, including a Stage 2b prostate cancer diagnosis. When the structure of performance-based identity finally cracked, Kenny didn't retreat. He rebuilt, and that rebuilding process became Identity Gain™.Unlike conventional recovery models, Identity Gain™ is built on a fundamentally different premise: you don't go back. You build forward. The framework helps high achievers acquire what Kenny calls internal assets, clarity, conviction, internal authority, boundaries, and direction. These are the things no résumé achievement or external crisis can take or give, and they are what make someone not just functional again, but stronger and more anchored than they have ever been.The people Kenny works with aren't struggling with skill gaps. They're struggling with identity gaps, executives and leaders performing at the top while quietly collapsing underneath. His IronMind Mentality program addresses both the surface performance and the root cause, beginning with the Iron Audit: a brutally honest diagnostic of where a client truly is.An IronMan World Championship triathlete, MBA graduate with Highest Honours from The Citadel, and currently pursuing a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Kenny brings lived experience to everything he teaches. Featured in Forbes, Psychology Today, Men's Health, CNBC, and Nasdaq, his message is simple even if the work is not: the version of you that emerges from the hardest chapter of your life can be the strongest one yet.To learn more about Identity Gain™, or to contact Kenny directly, click the link below.Disclosure of Material Connection: This is a sponsored post.

My friend, Lauren Groves, is on the podcast today and she's not only an intentional wife and mother, but she's also an author of a beautiful kids book series entitled, "Toddler Theology." I instantly thought about her when thinking about this parenting series because she is truly gifted in helping parents teach simple, yet powerful truths about the gospel in such an easy way through catechisms. In this episode, we talk about how the mundane things in motherhood and discipleship matter and how to take the pressure off of "saving" your children, and instead, do what we can and let God do the rest (or rather, the MOST).

It's week two of our parenting series and I couldn't think of a more INCREDIBLE way to keep the fun going than to have David Thomas and Sissy Goff on the show! They are some of my all-time favorite authors on parenting, and we're diving into the topic of raising capable kids in a world full of worry and anxiety. We look to the questions we as parents often have, such as, "How do I prepare my child for the world?" and "Is there such thing as a balance between 'gentle' and 'hard' parenting?" David and Sissy are such a wealth of wisdom and we look to what God says about raising strong, capable, and healthy children in every single way. You won't want to miss this one!

The strategy is solid, the people are capable, and yet growth has stalled — decisions drag, meetings loop, and the CEO is carrying everything alone. Monte's diagnosis is consistent: the problem isn't strategy. It's alignment.As CEO of AddingZEROS and WSJ and USA Today Best-Selling Author of “Pulling Profits Out of a Hat”, Monte has spent over 30 years helping executives see what they can't see from inside their own organizations. He's the top-ranked ActionCOACH Partner in North America, a Top 30 Global Guru in Organizational Culture, and holds certifications from John C. Maxwell, Marshall Goldsmith, and Jeffrey Gitomer.His AddingZEROS 5 Disciplines — Strategy, Business Development, People, Execution, and Mission — install a leadership operating system that turns confusion into clarity. Clients report faster decisions, predictable execution, revenue growth, and higher engagement. One summed it up simply: "We finally act like one team."Central to Monte's teaching is the distinction between leadership and management — two functions that are equally essential but routinely confused. Leadership drives vision and culture; management drives process and accountability. His coaching ensures both work together, intentionally. Having spent 14 years in global corporate roles at Syngenta before launching AddingZEROS in 2004, Monte brings real operational credibility to every engagement.Monte's mission is to impact one million executives globally — not by telling them what to do, but by teaching them how to think. For any CEO tired of being the ceiling of their own company, Monte's message is simple: stop working harder. Start building a truly aligned team.To learn more about the topics discussed, or to contact Monte directly, click the link below.Disclosure of Material Connection: This is a sponsored post.

The restructuring email lands, the algorithm flags you as overqualified, and the company you gave decades to quietly reorganises around people half your age. You're not finished — but the corporate world has decided you are. Jamie has built a movement around refusing that narrative. Jamie, who is the founder of ExecutiveNomad.com, has run a location-independent consulting business since 1991, co-founded a company that sold for £210 million, and closed over $100 million in deals across fintech, energy, and infrastructure — all while living and working from Greek harbour towns, Thai beach apartments, and European ski resorts.His framework, Rewire, Repackage, Repurpose, guides executives through separating identity from job title, packaging expertise into consulting, coaching, non-executive director roles, or workshop income streams, and connecting those skills to a global client base. The result is a portfolio career with multiple clients, multiple income streams, and no geographic anchor.His two companion books complete the picture. Executive Nomad: The Rise of the Sovereign Professional makes the philosophical case — the corporate ladder has structurally collapsed for experienced professionals, autonomy has replaced employment as the foundation of stability, and AI elevates deep expertise rather than replacing it. Rewire, Repackage, Repurpose: The Strategy then delivers the practical blueprint for making it happen.If you've spent decades building expertise the world needs and are ready to stop renting it to a single employer, this conversation is for you.To learn more about the topics discussed, or to contact Jamie directly, click the link below.Disclosure of Material Connection: This is a sponsored post.

During the call, Robert will share practical strategies for discovering your authentic self and how to cultivate true personal empowerment through self-awareness and genuine communication.In a world saturated with self-help programs promising transformation, Robert Wilson stands apart with a provocative message: much of what we call "self-help" is actually holding us back. As a renowned speaker and coach, Wilson helps individuals break free from the very systems designed to help them grow.Robert's approach centers on "Sovereign Liberation"—communicating away self-help programming to reveal our authentic selves. Unlike traditional methodologies that replace one set of limiting beliefs with another, his philosophy emphasizes true empowerment through self-awareness and genuine communication.At the heart of Robert's teaching is a fundamental question: Are we growing into who we truly are, or simply adopting new programming that looks like growth? He's discovered that many people become trapped in cycles of self-improvement that distance them from their authentic identity. The solution isn't more programming—it's liberation from programming altogether.Robert teaches that the way we speak to ourselves and others can either perpetuate limiting beliefs or liberate us from them. By becoming conscious of these patterns, individuals can express themselves authentically and create lives aligned with their true nature rather than borrowed ideals.Through his work at My Cowboy Wisdom, Robert has inspired countless individuals to reclaim authority over their own lives. His message is clear: true personal empowerment comes not from following the right program, but from having the courage to be sovereign in your own life.To learn more about the topics discussed, or to contact Robert directly, click the link below.Disclosure of Material Connection: This is a sponsored post.

Nonprofits Are Messy: Lessons in Leadership | Fundraising | Board Development | Communications
2025 felt like a year when everything became more and harder. More crises. More fear. More civic strain. More communities under pressure. And yet – more leadership, too. In this episode, Glennda connects with Darlene Nipper, President of the Rockwood Leadership Institute, for a grounded look at what leadership truly looked like in 2025. Darlene shares what she and her team witnessed across the country: communities organizing, mutual-aid volunteers pivoting to meet urgent needs, families creating rapid-response communication networks, and leaders of small organizations adapting and strategizing for the future. This wasn't leadership from the podium. It was leadership from the sidewalk, school hallway, boardroom, and living room. Together, Glennda and Darlene talk about what broke, what held, and what grew stronger this year: How democracy became a shared responsibility, not just a political concept What “leading from the inside out” looks like in high-pressure environments Why the long view and the short view have to coexist What nonprofit leaders need to prioritize amid uncertainty And through it all, one truth kept surfacing: leadership is no longer reserved for the chosen few. It is happening everywhere, often in people who never expected to step into the role. Whether you lead a nonprofit, neighborhood group, faith community, or simply your own family, this episode offers clarity on what your leadership means right now, and what it needs next. TUNE IN TO LEARN: How 2025 redefined who counts as a leader: This year showed us that leadership doesn't just come from titles or org charts – neighbors, parents, volunteers, and everyday people stepped in where systems fell short. Why democracy became a litmus test for leadership this year: In 2025, leaders weren't just asked to run programs. They were asked to choose whether to protect democratic values or remain silent as they eroded. How easy on-ramps – rather than professional gatekeeping – brought more people into meaningful action: Grassroots movements gained momentum because people could simply show up, proving accessibility is what fuels community power. What nonprofit leaders need to prioritize amid uncertainty: From pivoting quickly to listening deeply, this episode breaks down the practices that helped organizations stay grounded and effective. How leaders are thinking ahead while addressing immediate crises: Even while navigating fires, funding losses, and political turmoil, visionary leaders shifted into long-view strategy – imagining a future they may never personally see.

Some writers find their niche and stay there. Andrew Robinson is not one of those writers. The transplanted New Englander has built a remarkably diverse career spanning children's books, time travel fantasy, screenplays, and television—with projects produced everywhere from Central Florida to Poland to Turkey.Andrew is currently focused on his time travel fantasy series that began with Worst Date, Greatest Adventure, published by Champagne Book Group. Similar to the popular Outlander series, the book and its sequel Worst Date, Greatest Challenge blend romance, history, and fantasy. He's now working on the third installment.Andrew's also making waves in the vampire genre with Vampire Academia—and he's quick to clarify it's nothing like Twilight. The book resonated enough that Champagne Book Group requested a sequel, proving there's appetite for fresh takes on supernatural themes.Beyond novels, Robinson's screenwriting credits span continents. His work has been produced by companies in the U.S., Poland, Iran, and Turkey. His rom-com A Vagabond's Chaotic Life and Cannabis Queen: The Elvy Musikka Story were both presented by All the Line Studio in Orlando.Andrew's dedication extends beyond his own writing. He now leads the Orlando/Maitland Chapter of the Florida Writers' Association, supporting other writers in their journeys.

This episode of The 10 Minute Teacher was a lot of fun. Not only did I get to interview my principal, Jonathan Dyal, but my film class, the "Sherwood Showstoppers," filmed the interview. (I'm so proud of how much they are learning!) After a tweet I sent out in October 2023, George Couros and Allyson Apsey invited me to write a chapter about Jonathan in their book What Makes a Great Principal: The Five Pillars of Effective Leadership out this year. (You can listen to my earlier interview with George about what truly makes a great principal and the five pillars shared in the book.) Principal Dyal shares his philosophy of walking the halls frequently to stay connected with teachers and students, emphasizing his proactive rather than reactive philosophy. We talked about his strategies to build trust with teachers and how he uses observations positively. (I like his philosophy of observations; that is what the tweet was about in the first place.) He also discusses how he builds positive relationships with students in a way that improves student culture. This is a unique interview in that I see this firsthand and know the positive results it has when principals leave their offices, walk the halls, and spend time in classrooms. This approach is powerful, and it works! Show notes and transcript: https://www.coolcatteacher.com/e866 Disclosure of Material Connection: This episode includes some affiliate links.

Yes, everyone is talking about AI. However, how do the concerns about AI apply to our classrooms today? Tom Mullaney talks about concerns with: The Eliza effect—where people attribute human characteristics such as trust and credibility to text-generating computers—can be dangerous when combined with the biases and inaccuracies inherent in large language models. It is vital for educators to understand this as we talk about AI with students. There are concerns about using AI as "guest speakers" even for something seemingly "harmless" like "the water cycle." Concerns with humanizing AI. Discussing the "On the Dangers of Stochastic Parrots" paper by Dr. Emily M. Bender et all which discusses the ethical issues and harms of large language models, including bias and environmental racism. Debunking the myth that AI will have values and beliefs. Practical applications of AI in the classroom The challenges of citing generative AI in the classroom. Why it is vital to teach about AI's ethical implications and encourage critical thinking with the use of AI in the classroom. Why educators should stay informed about AI so they can guide students to effectively and responsibly use the AI that is becoming embedded in their technology.

So many educators juggle dual responsibilities of nurturing young minds and meeting their own family's needs. This balance is particularly challenging for many women in education. Creating environments where everyone is valued is vital to strengthening our schools. Dr. Tracee Perryman, author of Elevating Women Leaders: Stories of Strength, Survival, and Success, discusses the importance of understanding and addressing women's unique needs and motivations. Our conversation aimed to inspire and guide listeners, help women advocate for themselves, express their needs (before they resign with no notice), and be assertive in ways that help.

Dating and relationships are complex, and I'm sharing a piece of my own journey with a whirlwind romance that left me questioning love, lust, and the fine line between anxious attachment and an intuitive knowing that something is OFF. Breakup Coach Dorothy, the insightful voice behind the 'How to Get Over Your Ex' podcast, joins to dissect the nuances of heartbreak, detachment strategies, and the mysteries of dating. We tackle the burning questions that kept me up at night, including: how to know the difference between what could be anxious attachment vs. actually intuitively knowing that something is OFF in your relationship; how to know if you're feeling lust or love early on in a new relationship; how to know if you're being love-bombed or if it's the real thing; how to move towards healthy, secure attachment in your relationship; how to ensure you make healthy choices instead of falling into your old patterns when entering new relationships; and so much more. It's a raw, honest, and reassuring conversation that just might be the guidance you didn't know you needed.CONNECT FURTHER WITH GUEST:Website: https://dorothyabjohnson.com Podcast: https://apple.co/3InCwQV Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/breakupcoachdorothy CONNECT FURTHER WITH ANGIE:Podcast: https://www.yougetwhatimsaying.com Listen Early and Dynamic Ad-Free on Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3TcW80Q Social Media: https://beacons.ai/theactualangie/socialmedia Contact: yougetwhatimsaying.podcast@gmail.com Monetize Your Podcast: https://beacons.ai/theactualangie/monetizeSupport the Show: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/yougetit/membershipPARTNERS:This podcast is recorded using Riverside.
