Podcasts about Holding

What does it really mean to build wealth — not just earn money? In this episode of Wine After Work, Bryce sits down with Doug Kinsey, founding member of the Sweater Cashmere Fund and partner at Artifex Financial Group, for a grounded conversation about wealth, investing, and long-term strategy. With more than 25 years of experience in wealth management and investment strategy, Doug works with individuals and organizations to align financial decisions with real life goals — not just short-term performance. Holding a master's degree in management and strategy from Harvard and a certification as an Investment Management Analyst, Doug brings a thoughtful, disciplined approach to building and protecting wealth. In this conversation, we discuss: The difference between income, success, and true wealth Common mistakes high earners make with investing and retirement planning How to think about private assets and long-term strategy Why clarity and intention matter more than timing the market Building financial confidence as your career and responsibilities grow This episode is especially valuable for professionals who've focused on building their careers — and are now asking bigger questions about sustainability, freedom, and long-term security.  

History does not whisper in our lifetime — it thunders. Nations are tested, alliances are strained, and the moral weight of leadership settles on those called to stand in the storm. In such moments, diplomacy is no longer ceremony. It is strategy. It is conviction. It is the voice of a nation carried across oceans. Today, we are honored to sit at one of the most consequential crossroads of our era with Michael 'Yechiel' Leiter, Israel's Ambassador to the United States. His appointment in January 2025 is not the result of a single moment, but the culmination of a life shaped by intellect, policy, and public service. He has served in senior advisory roles to Israel's leadership, including as chief of staff to Benjamin Netanyahu during his tenure as finance minister, and in key positions across government ministries and national institutions — from national education policy to strategic infrastructure oversight. In every arena, his work has required one essential quality: the ability to translate vision into reality. Yet Ambassador Leiter is not only a practitioner of statecraft — he is a scholar of it. Holding a Ph.D. in political philosophy from the University of Haifa, with advanced training in international relations and law, he has written and lectured extensively on democracy, governance, and the moral foundations of power. His book, John Locke's Political Philosophy and the Hebrew Bible, argues that modern democratic ideals are not merely products of secular Enlightenment thought, but are deeply rooted in biblical covenantal ideas — that authority is conditional, morally bound, and entrusted rather than absolute. Few diplomats arrive with both the academic depth to interpret history and the practical experience to help shape it. Born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and forged in Israel's public life, Ambassador Leiter stands as a bridge between worlds — scholarship and strategy, conviction and diplomacy, heritage and unfolding history. His earlier advocacy work on behalf of the Jewish community of Hebron positioned him as a key voice explaining one of Judaism's oldest cities — home to the Tomb of the Patriarchs — to international audiences, framing its story not only through conflict, but through history, faith, and continuity. And he carries something more — something deeply personal. His firstborn son, Lt. Col. Moshe Yedidya Leiter, an elite Israeli combat officer, was killed in action in Gaza following the war that erupted after October 7. That loss is inseparable from his public voice. When he speaks about Israel's security, democracy, and moral responsibility, he does so not only as a diplomat, but as a father who has borne the cost of national defense. Michael Leiter brings together three rare callings: senior government practitioner, trained political philosopher, and diplomatic representative. His career bridges theory and policy, scholarship and statecraft, faith and democracy. This is not merely an interview. It is a conversation at the fault line of our times. Ambassador Michael Leiter — welcome to the program. ——

Tragedy can strike without warning, and for Granger and Amber Smith, the sudden loss of their son River became a catalyst for a profound encounter with God. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar discuss how this event revealed the fragility of worldly peace and prompted Granger to confront his own despair, ultimately leading him to find salvation. Amber shares her parallel journey of nights spent in raw grief and relentless prayer, showing that suffering can bring believers face to face with God. They explore how lament is a biblical response to pain, showing that crying out to the Lord is not a sign of weakness but a step toward healing and intimacy with Him. The conversation highlights the importance of confronting sin, understanding God rightly, and rejecting the false peace offered by the world. The guys also focus on hope for those struggling with despair or suicidal thoughts, explaining that fellowship, honest prayer, and a proper understanding of the gospel can transform despair into purpose. Finally, Granger and Amber share practical ways they have integrated grief and faith into daily life, walking their remaining children through sorrow while pointing them toward Jesus, strengthening their marriage, and deepening their ministry.Send a textThanks for listening!

You might think you're doing intuitive eating, but if you're feeling frustrated, uncertain or stuck…there's a good chance that you're not actually doing it the way it's meant to be done. No shame in that, this is really common.    In this episode, I'm going to walk you through 5 signs that tell us you're not doing intuitive eating correctly or in its entirety, and what you need to do differently to make it work for you.    If you're: - Still calling food like chips and cookies junk - Letting the scale dictate your self esteem - Telling yourself that you're getting healthier by skipping carbs at lunch - Looking at old photos of yourself and comparing your current body and beating yourself up - Holding onto clothes from 10 years ago that no longer fit   You say you want to be an intuitive eater, but you're not thinking or acting like one. And today we fix that.   Becoming an intuitive eater isn't going to come from just declaring that you're "doing intuitive eating" or by simply committing to not dieting. The reality is that it takes more intentional work than that. Intuitive eating is a science-backed framework - but it only works if you do it the way it's intended.    Episode Highlights - The 5 signs you're not actually doing intuitive eating like you think you are - Specific actions to focus on that will help you to truly listen to your hunger and fullness cues, and pump the brakes on impulsive or emotional eating - Which essential aspects of your relationship with food you've been missing and overlooking that need to be addressed so that intuitive eating isn't just a band aid approach for you that doesn't end up working long-term   Today's Wellness Woo is peptides.   Resources Mentioned - Join Intuitive Eating Exploration: https://www.nondietacademy.com/explore    Read the full episode show notes here: https://katyharvey.net/podcast225    Resources for Your Intuitive Eating Journey Join My Intuitive Eating Made Easy Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/306396290454800 Work with Katy: https://katyharvey.net/services Explore the self-paced mini-course Stepping Off The Dieting Rollercoaster: https://nondietacademy.com/rollercoaster   Connect with Katy Harvey Website: https://katyharvey.net Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katyharvey.rd/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KatyHarveyRD     Subscribe and Review   Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts   I would be thrilled if you could rate and review my podcast!

On this episode of Behind The Numbers With Dave Bookbinder, Dave speaks with entrepreneur and author Betsy Pepine about her book Breaking Boxes: Dismantling the Metaphorical Boxes That Bind Us — and what those “boxes” really mean for business owners. They move beyond the metaphor and into the boardroom. Dave and Betsy examine how invisible constraints — family expectations, industry norms, identity labels, fear of judgment — quietly shape leadership decisions, company culture, and growth trajectories. More importantly, they explore what it takes to recognize and dismantle those constraints before they limit enterprise value. Betsy shares candid stories from building and scaling her real estate businesses, including a pivotal employee departure that forced a hard look at culture and alignment, and her unconventional decision to create salaried agent roles in an industry built on commission. The conversation tackles how fear masquerades as strategy, how misalignment shows up physically and relationally for leaders, and how outdated assumptions can cap performance long before the numbers reflect it. You'll hear practical insights for business owners and advisors alike: How to identify the “boxes” shaping your decisions Why growth often stalls at identity, not capability The role of outside counsel, peer groups, and masterminds in exposing blind spots How authentic alignment strengthens culture - and ultimately business results If you're a business owner, executive, or advisor who senses that something is holding your organization back  but can't quite name it, this conversation will help you connect the dots between mindset, leadership behavior, and measurable outcomes.

#402 In this episode, Guy introduced returning guest Katie Sutton and framed 2026 as an intense period of energetic change, comparing it to riding a wave and sharing a personal story about cycling Bolivia's "Road of Death" and his own recent ancestral trauma release. Katie says the year marks a collective transition out of centuries of oppression and separation, with people pushed to claim authentic expression, process shadow, and navigate collapsing systems while holding both personal and collective intensity. She described the Fire Horse year beginning February 17, noting early months focus on shedding and integration alongside a solar eclipse, a lunar eclipse two weeks later, and a Mercury retrograde, with more visible new beginnings arriving in March and April. They discussed practical ways to avoid victimhood and burnout by slowing down, using micro-moments to feel and release triggers, prioritizing nervous-system regulation and solitude, and embracing joy alongside grief, while emphasizing co-creation with others and the earth. Katie explained her relationship with spiritual guides and earth energies, recounts a transformative Glastonbury pilgrimage experience and preparation practices, and closes by encouraging listeners to take good care of themselves through the year's "high highs and low lows," connect with her through Zen Within Academy, and consider retreats and workshops in places like Glastonbury and Charlotte, North Carolina.

There's a pressure you've been feeling lately. A quiet sense that your current results, identity, or life no longer fit who you're capable of becoming. And here's the truth most people don't want to admit: growth doesn't feel like confidence — it feels like discomfort. Expansion feels like uncertainty. It feels like being stretched. It feels like something has to change… but you're not sure what. In this episode, I break down what expansion really requires. Not just chasing bigger goals — but becoming the person capable of holding bigger goals. Because you can't expand while protecting the identity that created your current results. In this episode, you'll learn: Why growth begins with discomfort — not clarity How holding onto what's familiar is secretly suffocating your expansion Why your current identity is producing your current results The lobster molting metaphor and how it applies to your life and performance How to create energetic capacity for success through release Four powerful reflection questions to identify what you must let go of One simple but bold action step to initiate your next level If you want lower scores, greater success, more impact, more peace, or more freedom — this conversation will challenge you to let go before you level up. Expansion isn't about getting more. It's about becoming more. Get your pencils ready and start listening.  The 90-Day Golf Identity Upgrade Accelerator: This is a private 3-month coaching container designed to help serious golfers rapidly upgrade their beliefs, rewire their golf identity, and accelerate lower scores through deep subconscious transformation — not surface-level tactics.

You must release before you receive — expansion requires letting go of old beliefs, habits, and commitments to create space for more. Your current identity is producing your current results — different outcomes require becoming a different person at the core. Expansion includes a period of vulnerability — temporary uncertainty is the price of increased capacity. Expansion is a lifelong cycle — pressure, release, reorganization, and greater capacity repeat at every new level. Key Quotes: "Growth does not begin with clarity. It begins with discomfort." "The life you want cannot fit inside the identity you're currently protecting." "Holding on to what is familiar suffocates growth."

In this illuminating episode of First Contact, host Eesha Patel welcomes Lisa Puzio Strickland, PhD, a speaker, researcher, and expert in UAPs and non-human intelligences. Holding a doctorate in philosophy with an emphasis in parapsychology from the University of Metaphysics in Sedona, Arizona, Lisa brings a rare blend of academic rigor and personal intuitive experience to the conversation. Her dissertation explored how the acknowledgment of UAP and non-human intelligence — and the disclosure itself — will benefit humanity psychologically, philosophically, and spiritually. Lisa's journey into this field began in childhood, growing up in Los Angeles with precognitive dreams and intuitive experiences that both fascinated and frightened her. After a successful career in radio and television, she turned her focus inward, deep-diving into quantum physics, Heart Math Institute research, and the science of consciousness — before recognising the profound overlap between parapsychology and the UAP/NHI phenomenon. Today, she is a board member of several UAP organisations and a sought-after speaker at major conferences, including Contact in the Desert. Episode Breakdown with Timestamps: [00:00:03] – Introduction: Eesha introduces Lisa Puzio Strickland and her background in parapsychology and UAP/NHI research. [00:01:00] – Lisa's Origin Story: Growing up in Los Angeles with early precognitive dreams and intuitive experiences, navigating a conservative Baptist upbringing. [00:07:23] – Personal Experiences and the Power of Intuition: Stories of intuition saving Lisa from harm, including a mysterious woman at an airport and a car incident, and what these moments reveal about our conscious connection to the universe. [00:11:15] – Filters of Consciousness: How belief systems shape what we perceive, from orbs seen as angels to UAP craft dismissed entirely due to inattentional blindness. [00:22:11] – UAP Sightings and Personal Contact: Lisa shares her first sighting — a moving orb-like light in the night sky — and Eesha shares how her own contact began through meditation and telepathy. [00:25:54] – Types of Non-Human Intelligence: An overview of the paranormal-UAP overlap, psionics, and the four main NHI types acknowledged by government and military insiders. [00:32:08] – They've Always Been Here: A look at the deep historical presence of non-human intelligence across civilisations, and why they may have been deliberately mislabelled throughout history. [00:35:40] – The Impact of Disclosure: How UAP disclosure will transform science, metaphysics, and personal belief systems — and why humanity must remain open to radically new truths. [00:40:18] – Where to Find Lisa: Lisa shares her website, social media, upcoming projects, and UAP communities she recommends for those wanting to go deeper.

A few weeks before leaving to pursue mainstream music, Tim Timmons was told he had five years to live. In this episode, we talk about the story behind his song “Even If,” how that confession was forged in the middle of stage-four cancer, and how his journey is now portrayed in the film I Can Only Imagine 2. We explore what it means to hold grief and gratitude together, to surrender outcomes without giving up hope, and to resist contempt through enemy-love in a divided culture. This isn't a polished victory arc. It's a conversation about paying attention to Jesus in the 10,000 ordinary minutes of our lives — and discovering that even if the healing doesn't come, God himself is still our hope.Tim Timmons is a singer-songwriter who has spent over two decades in ministry, writing songs born from personal experience with pain, cancer, hope, and joy. In 2001, he received a terminal cancer diagnosis with a five-year prognosis—he's now 24 years into that journey. "The gift of cancer is perspective," he shares. "It's really the open door to speak into people's stories."Since his 2013 debut "Cast My Cares," Timmons has been creating what he calls "prayers set to music," including co-writing MercyMe's Grammy-nominated "Even If." His latest work with Integrity Music explores themes of God's presence through struggle, including singles like "You Never Let Go" and "Roar"—songs that put praise into action even in the midst of hardship.After 15 years leading worship in Orange County, California, Timmons now tours full-time, carrying a message forged in the fire of his own battle with incurable cancer. "I hear so many stories after every show where people are just stuck in religion—exhausted, shame-filled, powerless, and joyless," he notes. "I want to have songs that actually help them through their journey and invite them beyond fear."When home in Nashville, Tim, his wife Hilary of 23+ years, and their four children live out their faith in everyday moments. Six years ago, he founded the non-profit 10000 MINUTES with a weekly podcast inspiring people to practice Jesus in all 10,000 minutes of their week, not just the 80 spent in church. He is also the author of the forthcoming book, Waking Up Again: A Journey of Grief and Gratitude (March 3, 2026).Tim Timmons' greatest desire—whether through his cancer story, his theology, or his songs—is to help people discover the real life found with Jesus, one day at a time.Tim's Book:Waking Up AgainConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@shiftingculturepodcast.comGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

What if faithful leadership is less about having the right answers and more about asking the right questions? In this episode, J.R. Briggs joins us to explore how curiosity shapes spiritual formation, deepens relationships, and transforms the way leaders lead. Drawing from his newest work on asking better questions—and his honest reflections on failure, disillusionment, and resilience—J.R. invites leaders to move from control to presence, from performance to humility.

In this episode of The New CISO, host Steve Moore speaks with Dean Sapp, CISO and Data Protection Officer at Filevine, about one of security's most critical yet overlooked skills—written communication. Drawing from a brutal college English class that failed students for a single typo and over 20 years building security programs in the legal tech industry, Dean reveals why the ability to articulate security findings clearly separates average professionals from exceptional leaders who drive real business impact.After abandoning architecture when he learned it would take six years to become licensed, Dean leveraged his dual skills in computer-aided drafting and IT to launch a career at Novell, eventually earning nine certifications in two years and a master's degree from SANS Institute. His background in design thinking shapes how he approaches security program development—viewing it like building a structure that requires solid foundations, functional systems, and even window dressing like SOC 2 compliance.After interviewing over 100 candidates for SOC positions, Dean identifies the biggest missing skill as the inability to translate security findings into business language executives understand and act upon. He introduces the BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front) principle from military communications, explaining why security professionals have roughly eight seconds to capture executive attention. Dean champions radical transparency through simple frameworks—using stoplight systems or report card grades to communicate security posture, deliberately giving his own program failing marks in areas needing improvement to build trust.Dean tackles operational communication breakdowns that create real security risk, emphasizing mandatory peer review before escalating incidents. This two-person rule dramatically improves report quality while reducing false positives that waste senior leadership time. He shares how this high-standards approach helped Filevine achieve best-in-class cyber insurance rates, with underwriters calling their security program superior to any SaaS provider they'd evaluated. Drawing on Erik Durschmied's "The Hinge Factor," he illustrates how small communication failures doom missions—just as cavalry troops charging cannons failed because not one rider carried the nails and hammer needed to disable them.Throughout the discussion, Dean emphasizes holding yourself to impossibly high standards so that external auditors find you excellent. He advocates for brutal honesty about program gaps, documenting accepted risks clearly, and using tools like Grammarly Premium to improve writing quality. His philosophy combines military precision, architectural thinking, and pedagogical discipline—all in service of making security programs that actually work rather than just looking good on paper.Key Topics Discussed:* Why written communication is security's most critical missing skill* BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front): Capturing executive attention in 8 seconds* Using stoplight or report card systems for transparent board reporting* Giving your security program honest grades to build executive trust* Mandatory peer review before escalation to reduce false positives* How Filevine achieved best-in-class cyber insurance rates* The two-person rule for improving incident report quality* Lessons from "The Hinge Factor" about preparation and tools* Holding impossibly high standards so external auditors find you excellent* Translating technical findings into business impact languageLEARN MORE:

Before the Iranian Revolution, nearly 100,000 Jews lived rich, deeply rooted lives in Iran.

The hobby talks about buying.It talks about selling.It celebrates flips, upgrades, and big auction results.It rarely talks about holding.In this flagship episode of Stacking Slabs, Brett explores the power of keeping the right cards in a market that rewards motion.He breaks down why holding is underserved in a culture built on velocity and why conviction matters more than constant movement. Drawing from his own collecting journey, Brett outlines the three buckets he uses before buying any card and the only three reasons he will sell.The conversation moves into the psychology of ownership, the tension between attachment and arbitrage, and why not every 1/1 deserves long term status.At the center of the episode is one grounding question:If the market shut down for five years, which cards would you still be proud to own?This episode challenges collectors to define their lanes, clarify their rules, and build alignment between their purchases and their purpose.Buy with intention.Sell with discipline.Hold with conviction.Check out the awesome software that InfernoRed Technology can build for you.Get your free copy of Collecting For Keeps: Finding Meaning In A Hobby Built On HypeStart your 7 day free trial of Stacking Slabs Patreon Today[Distributed on Sunday] Sign up for the Stacking Slabs Weekly Rip Newsletter using this linkFollow Stacking Slabs: | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | Tiktok ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

The focus is on clarity, decision-making, and setting up a paperwork system that works long term. Praying this helps you find some freedom from paper clutter!

From the first moments, Deborah names what so many experience but struggle to articulate—gaslighting, threats, verbal assaults, and financial control—and shows how a child's devotion to her father can coexist with a fierce need for boundaries.As we trace the book's path through a pandemic launch, Deborah explains why a sociological lens makes memoir more than confession. She connects the dots between family dynamics, gendered expectations, healthcare systems, and the invisible labor that daughters and partners shoulder. Her years counseling violent men at Emerge, the nation's oldest batterer intervention program, sharpen her insights: behavior can change, accountability matters, and empathy does not erase harm. That background also deepens her own reckoning with a brilliant, creative, and often wounding father.Rather than preaching forgiveness, Deborah argues for something braver: ambivalence. Holding two truths—love and injury—without flattening either. We talk about staying present at the end of a complicated life, advocating from a distance, and confronting the limits of what one caregiver can do under debt, time pressure, and grief. Along the way we surface practical takeaways for anyone navigating eldercare, emotional abuse, or family estrangement: document patterns, set sustainable boundaries, recruit support, and learn the language that makes the unseen visible.We close with the fuel that keeps Deborah moving—art, nature, movement, laughter—and a glimpse at her next project on her mother and creativity. If you're searching for thoughtful conversation on caregiving, gaslighting, domestic violence education, and healing family patterns, this one offers tools and tenderness in equal measure. If the conversation resonates, tap follow, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs a little more language for their story.Support the show:On Patreon Buy us a book Buy cute merch Subscribe to the Babes in Bookland SubstackLink to this episode's book:Welcome to Wherever We Are by Deborah J.
