'DANA WHITE LIES ....' - PAULIE MALIGNNAGI NOT HOLDING BACK ON AJ v FURY CLAIMS, EMOTIONAL ON HATTON

A conversation with keynote speaker, leadership trainer, and singer-songwriter, Rachel Druckenmiller. Essential listening for anyone ready to stop holding the best parts of themselves back. Some people find their way to a courageous pivot through careful planning. Others get there because life makes the decision for them. And then there's the kind of wisdom that only comes from having done both, and arriving somewhere you never could have mapped. Rachel Druckenmiller is the kind of guest who says things you'll be repeating to yourself for weeks. About what it means to say yes before you feel ready. About the difference between a life that looks successful and one that actually feels alive. About speaking your desires out loud, even the ones that seem too big, too unlikely, too far away. About how the things that fall apart are often quietly clearing the path to what's next. There is a particular kind of courage in letting yourself be seen doing the thing you love most. Rachel has had to find that courage more than once, in more than one arena. What she's discovered on the other side is nothing short of a blueprint for coming home to yourself.

This is the story of how an old identity that I thought I had left behind, was still hiding in the background, holding me back, and slowly breaking apart my business! This week, I'm opening up about a very personal journey, one that took me right back to my old “corporate Jess” identity and showed me how she had quietly lingered behind the scenes, influencing my decisions and keeping my business from being fully aligned with who I am today. As women in our 40s and 50s we've experienced many identity shifts during our life: from child to teen, to adult, employee, and now entrepreneur. Add in wife, mother and other hats we might have worn and there's a lot of past and present 'selves' who each learned ways to be 'safe' and formed beliefs about what success really means. And, sometimes the ones we thought we'd left behind are still there, shaping our choices in ways we don't notice until something finally drops into your awareness and you see the pattern. In this episode, I'm sharing how uncovering one of my past identities gave me insights that changed everything about how I was seeing my business and finally helped me make decisions that were aligned to my current and future self - not tied to the past! If you've ever second-guessed whether old habits or mindsets from a past life might be playing a bigger part in your journey than you wish, I encourage you to listen in. Here's what you'll hear me explore: Why does transitioning from a long-standing career to entrepreneurship often feel unsettling, even when it's what we want? What are the subtle signals that some old beliefs or parts of your past self might still be influencing your choices as a business owner? How did I finally spot the hidden brakes that “corporate Jess” was putting on my business, and what did I do to shift out of those patterns? Why letting go of an outdated identity might be the most empowering move you make for your business and your personal life. How can you begin to step fully into the expert role that's truly yours, and find a way to build your business so it supports both your ambition and your lifestyle? Ready for some real talk and maybe a few lightbulb moments? Tune in to this week's episode and let's figure it out together. ………………………………………… Are you a woman in business? YOU'RE INVITED!

Cheap talent is not saving you money. It is costing you your time, your standards, and your scale. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down one of the biggest mistakes small business owners make—hiring the cheapest person instead of investing in elite operators. Because let's be real… If you have to constantly fix their mistakes… Explain every detail… And micromanage every task… You did not save money. You bought yourself another job. In this episode, you'll learn: Why bargain talent usually creates more work for the founder How incompetence becomes the most expensive tax in your business Why A-players pay for themselves through speed and execution How premium operators raise the standard of your entire company Because real scale does not happen with discount execution. It happens when you hire people who can take ownership. People who solve problems. People who raise the bar. People who free you from the weeds. Most founders stay small because they keep trying to save money on the very people who are supposed to help them grow. But elite CEOs understand this: Premium talent is not an expense. It is leverage. And when you invest in the right operators… Your business moves faster, your culture gets stronger, and your freedom expands. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

• It's Podmasters' 10th birthday! Get an extra 10% off a year's Patreon backing.  The German town of Weimar exudes a dark fascination, and not just because Hitler loved to visit it. How did Germany's cultural capital – home of the Bauhaus, Goethe, Schiller and the doomed inter-war experiment with democracy – also become one of Nazism's earliest strongholds and the location for the Buchenwald concentration camp? Why did the Weimar Republic fall? And can it really teach us how to hold back fascism in our time? Historian and journalist Katja Hoyer tells the story of the town and Germany through the lives of ordinary people in her riveting book Weimar: Life on the Edge of Catastrophe. She talks to Andrew Harrison about how Germany's beacon of culture became its heart of darkness – and the lessons of Weimar for today.  • Buy Weimar: Life on the Edge of Catastrophe through our affiliate bookshop and you'll help fund the podcast by earning us a small commission for every sale.

'I AM NOT A F****** IDIOT...' - TRAINER PETER FURY NOT HOLDING BACK ON USYK GETTING BEATEN BY RICO

Who or what is holding back the Antichrist? In Part 2 of this eye-opening prophetic series, Rick Renner unpacks the mysteries of 2 Thessalonians 2 to reveal the "Great Restraint" that is actively holding back total evil from taking over the world. As deception and lawlessness spread across society, many believers are confused about the Rapture and the rise of the Antichrist. In this teaching, discover the urgent assignment God has given the Church in the last days. As long as the Church is here, evil will not have its way! ► WATCH PART 1: https://youtu.be/m0RzkGUypKk ► WATCH PART 3: https://youtube.com/live/tbN3fKrPgRk In this video, you will learn: • The truth about the Rapture and the timeline of the Antichrist. • How the Church acts as a supernatural restraint against evil. • How to survive the deception of the last days and rescue those who have fallen away. Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to our channel for more teachings on Bible prophecy, the rapture, and the end times!

Why do believers say they trust God yet still cling to control over their lives? Many struggle with partial surrender, holding back areas like their future, fears, or decisions while professing faith. From Proverbs 3:5–6, the speaker examines the call to trust the Lord with all the heart, emphasizing that true trust flows from a deep, personal relationship with God rather than mere knowledge about Him. He illuminates that partial surrender limits God's direction, while full trust allows Him to guide every step. The central claim is that genuine faith requires complete dependence on God. Therefore, release what you are holding back and fully entrust your life to God's leading.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Thanks for watching and listening!Gordon discussed how to identify if someone is holding back in various areas of life, including physical fitness, relationships, and business. He outlined three key indicators: knowing one has the capability to do more, having more to say but not expressing it, and wrestling with irrational fears. Gordon announced his plan to release 31 books in May to address his own holding back in sharing knowledge. He also promoted the Capitalize Your Best online community as a resource for growth in energy, faith, money, and body, offering a free 7-day pass and a monthly membership at $29.

What if your biggest obstacle is not fear — but the choice to hold back? In Judges 6, God calls Gideon a mighty hero while he is literally hiding in a wine press. That disconnect is the whole point. In Why You Keep Holding Back, Pastor Mike O'Connell unpacks the Greek word deilía from 2 Timothy 1:7 — often translated "timidity" — and reveals that it is not describing an emotion. It is describing a posture: the decision to shrink back when courage is already available to you.God did not just call Gideon out of hiding. He stripped away every safety net — shrinking an army of 32,000 down to 300 — so there would be no question about who deserved the credit. If there is a decision you keep deferring, a conversation you keep avoiding, or a calling you keep softening to make it more comfortable, this message will challenge you. What God sees in you is not what your circumstances are telling you. And the step He is asking you to take might be the very thing that unlocks everything else.

A great chat with producer and audience growth specialist Kattie Laur to unpack what's really holding back Canadian podcasting – and, unsurprisingly, we keep coming back to money, funding, and marketing. We talk about why Canada lacks meaningful grant support, why brands are hesitant to invest in podcasts, and how a realistic budget needs to split resources between production and promotion.Kattie shares her experience pitching the CBC, her work in branded podcasts, and why companies need to choose between making a genuine audience-first show or simply buying ads on existing podcasts. We dig into government-funded podcasts, transparency around downloads, and how to think about ROI beyond raw numbers.We also get into discoverability, the impact (and pressure) of video, platform politics at Apple and Spotify, and why Canadian indie shows struggle while big broadcasters thrive. By the end, we've at least sketched out how funding, advocacy, and smarter marketing could actually move Canadian podcasting forward.Kattie has a very good newsletter worth paying for called Pod The North.

Role-playing, especially with AI, can significantly enhance training outcomes. Accountability and engagement from management are vital to ensure successful use of training programs.   The Importance of Training in the Automotive Industry In the fiercely competitive automotive industry, training is not a luxury but a fundamental necessity. Sean V. Bradley, in a passionate discussion with LA Williams, underscores the critical importance of comprehensive training for automotive professionals. "How dare you call yourself a manager when you don't properly prepare your team," he asserts, emphasizing the negligence of some managers towards training investment. The neglect of structured training programs is likened to an absurd hypothetical where surgeons bypass medical school. Bradley challenges the notion by equating a lack of training to sending someone without credentials to build a multimillion-dollar property. Even McDonald's, as he notes, has Hamburger University for proper employee training. It's evident that a successful car sales team hinges on effective and holistic preparation. Training should not merely cover sales techniques or product knowledge but should also encompass aspects like personal development, time management, and the use of technology. Harnessing AI in Automotive Sales Training As technology evolves, incorporating AI into training programs is a game-changer. Bradley introduces the AI role-playing tool developed by Dealer Synergy, which integrates years of accumulated company knowledge. This AI platform enables sales professionals to practice real-life scenarios, enhancing their ability to handle clients effectively. "Use AI like Tony Stark from Iron Man uses the suit," Bradley recommends, encouraging dealers to leverage AI for training and role-playing. This technology offers an unprecedented opportunity for repeated practice without the fatigue human trainers may experience. The AI assesses trainees through various metrics like tone, speed, and filler words, offering detailed feedback and opportunities for improvement. Beyond just role-playing real scenarios, AI ensures that learning is dynamic and tailored to each individual's progress, creating a more immersive and effective training experience. Accountability in Training Programs The success of any training program is hinged not only on the resources available but also on the accountability mechanisms in place. As LA Williams points out, the absence of accountability can render the most robust programs ineffective. "Training is disrespected not only in the dealership but in the entire industry," he notes, highlighting a systemic issue where the pursuit of excellence is often traded for complacency. Effective managers ensure that cameras are on during training sessions, facilitating active participation and making sure distractions are minimized. This mirrors real-life sales interactions where engagement and focus are critical. Bradley firmly believes that "winners love accountability," and this spans to every aspect of their work environment. Systems like the Watchdog Report in the Bradley On Demand platform track engagement and performance, providing a window into how training is progressing. This transparency ensures that managers can address any issues that arise, reinforcing the importance of constant learning and self-improvement in the salesforce. Creating a Culture of Continuous Learning In today's rapidly changing automotive landscape, embracing a culture of continuous learning is not just beneficial but crucial. Bradley advocates for the nurturing of an environment where sales professionals are encouraged to constantly evolve, stay informed, and upskill. This goes beyond just knowing the latest sales tactics or vehicle specs; it's about understanding the broader ecosystem of automotive sales, which includes digital marketing, personal branding, and leveraging new technologies like AI. In his own words, Bradley states, "Training doesn't happen by binge-watching videos." True learning involves immersive engagement, critical thinking, and practical application of skills. For dealerships, this means fostering an ethos of learning from the top down, reducing attrition, improving job satisfaction, and ultimately driving higher sales. Implementing such change requires buy-in from all levels of staff, ensuring that training programs are not seen as chores but as investments in individual and organizational growth. By prioritizing training and development, automotive businesses can remain competitive and innovate within their market spaces. In addressing the industry's complexities, it's evident that the automotive sales domain is ripe for a shift in how professionals are prepared and developed. Training, powered by modern technology and a robust accountability framework, stands as the foundation upon which future success will be built. Embracing this can herald a new era in car salesmanship, marked by efficiency, knowledge, and profitability.     Resources + Our Proud Sponsors:   ➼ The Millionaire Car Salesman Facebook Group: Join the #1 Automotive Sales Mastermind Facebook Group with over 29,000 automotive professionals worldwide.

2026-04-06 | UPDATES #165 | Ukraine takes the war to Russia's oil jugular. Novorossiysk is burning, again. Russia's most important oil export hub on the Black Sea — the endpoint for pipelines carrying crude from Siberia, the Urals, and Kazakhstan — was hammered overnight by more than fifty Ukrainian drones, in what multiple analysts are calling the most ambitious and damaging Ukrainian strike on the port to date.The West is telling Ukraine to ease up. And Ukraine is telling the West, no, through its actions. What are some of the so-called Western partners really asking – whether Ukraine can destroy itself, and submit to the invader, for their convenience. Die, to buy to West some time, while they fail to prepare for the Russian threat. The optics of this are gross, the hypocrisy nauseating and the lack of strategic understanding and myopia just astounding. If Russia is strengthened through oil and gas revenues, it's profile as a threat to Europe simply increases.And it wasn't just oil infrastructure. Ukraine hit a Russian missile frigate. It hit an offshore drilling rig. It hit a Be-12 amphibious aircraft in occupied Crimea. All in the same night. All while Russia was simultaneously raining drones on Odesa — killing three people there, including a toddler.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------A REQUEST FOR HELP!I'm heading back to Kyiv next month, to film, do research and conduct interviews.

This episode is connected to:* Hot Seat Coaching #1* Hot Seat Coaching #2When you find yourself spiraling over a structural choice—looping between two different plot points or debating a table of contents—it's easy to treat it as a technical puzzle to be solved with logic. But as book coach Jennie Nash explores in this episode, the hardest writing decisions usually aren't about craft; they are about courage.Inspired by a profound "hot seat" moment with writer Andrew Parella, Jennie discusses how the simple question "Why is this so hard for me?" can reveal where you are "playing small." Whether you're deciding the scope of a nonfiction argument or the emotional vulnerability of a memoir, being stuck often means you are hovering between a safe version of your book and the big, ambitious version that actually wants to be written. This session is a call to align your head with your heart and step into the bigger power your project is asking of you.#AmWriting is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.TranscriptJennie: [00:00:00] This is a right big episode where I bring you short conversations about the mindset shifts that shape the work. Today I am talking about something that Andrew said in our hot seat coaching session the other day. That's just really captured my attention. If you listen to that episode, which I'll link to in the show notes, you'll be able to hear him say this, but I wanted to take some time to talk about it on a right big session because the question was just so profound.What he asked himself was just simply, why is this so hard? So what was happening was we were talking through a writing decision he was struggling with. It's one of those decisions where as a coach you can feel the writer circling around it, going back and forth, trying one thing, then another just sort of spiraling and not sure about how to move forward.And I. Was prepared to say the thing that I always say as a book coach, which [00:01:00] is, okay, let's go through all the options. Let's make a pro con list of how to proceed with this, of what your different choices are, and we can step back and look at the possible directions. That's the analytic way that I was thinking to approach this decision.But Andrew had actually already solved the problem, and he had solved it not by going through all the options or using his mind. He had solved it by asking, why is this so hard for me? Which is a question of the heart. So what he did was he took it out of the intellectual sphere and he took it into this sphere.Of feeling I was there ready to start diagramming possibilities and using our head to figure this out. And he was the one who was like, well, wait a minute. Let me look at why this is hard. And what he realized was that the reason it was hard was because the decision was poking up against why this book so much to [00:02:00] him.What he actually said was he realized he was playing small. He was circling around a decision ‘cause he wanted to do the thing that would make the book big, but he felt like he should do the thing that would keep the book small. He was pinging back and forth. Between his desire and it was showing up as a structural decision in the book about how he would approach.In this case, it was the reality of vampires in his story. And one way would be, I can handle this. I'm capable of this. I can wrap up my hands around this. And the other way was, oh no, that's gonna be a big scary book that I'd be having to. Handle and tackle, and I'm not sure that I could do that. So by not making this decision, he was holding himself back.He was hedging his bets. He was not fully committing to the version of the book that he really wanted to write. And as long as he was stuck in that place, every single decision was going to feel wrong. He was never gonna [00:03:00] land on one that was like, yes, this is it. And this moment stayed with me. So hard because I think a lot of writing decisions that feel technical or structural are actually something else.They're about whether we're willing to write the book that wants to be written. So imagine for example, that you're writing a nonfiction book and it's about burnout at work, and you keep getting stuck on how to frame it. Is the book a step by step guide on managing stress? Or is it about something bigger about, say how the culture of work itself is totally unsustainable.The first version is contained, it's small, and the other version is making a much bigger claim, and it's asking that writer to step up into a much bigger kind of power. So if you're circling that structural decision endlessly, you might think that it's different choices about. What the chapters are gonna look like are the table of [00:04:00] contents.But the real question is, am I willing to say the bigger thing, am I willing to go out there and say this bigger thing? Or imagine this for memoir. Maybe you're writing a book about moving to a new city and the first year of showing up in a new place and building community, but there's something you keep avoiding, which is that there was a breakup that happened before you made this move and that precipitated your.Coming here and you keep asking yourself, does this even belong in the book? Will it derail the narrative? Is it taking it in a different direction? Should I have a prologue? Should I start it at chapter one with that breakup? Should I just assume that people are gonna know, should I not put in it at all?But the real reason that decision probably feels hard is that that decision changes what the book is about. Uh, it stops being a story about a new city and a new adventure, and it becomes a story about rebuilding [00:05:00] a life. So it becomes a bigger story. And in order to write big, you have to embrace that bigness of it.So what Andrew's question does, why is this so hard is shift. The focus inward to what you're hesitating about, to what version of the book you might be avoiding to what version of your own self as a writer you might be avoiding because every writer has a story about who they are and how they're showing up.There's the safer version of that story, and there's the bigger version. There's one that might be more honest or more ambitious or more emotionally exposed, and when we try to write the smaller version of that story, whatever it is, the whole project will start to wobble because we're not in alignment with our goal.So maybe your scenes don't quite land, or the structure of the book feels wrong, or every decision feels impossible. And it's not [00:06:00] because you don't know enough about your story or your material or craft, or your skills need sharpening. It's because you and what you're doing aren't aligned yet. So the next time you find yourself circling some decision about your work.Whether it's rewriting the same paragraph over and over, or asking everyone you know what they think, or debating some decision. It's definitely worth pausing and asking this question, which is not what is the right choice here, but why is this decision so hard for me? Odds are good that your project is asking you to step into a bigger power than you're comfortable with, and you're still debating whether you're actually willing to do that.You're debating the commitment of the whole thing. It's a really brilliant move to make. And I would urge you to listen to Andrew talk about asking that question on our coaching call because it was so profound to hear him talk about it, and it was such a good [00:07:00] reminder for me that I have to remember to help the writer get out of their head and into their heart.Thanks for listening.

Latino performers face a persistent gap between their presence in the entertainment industry and their representation in actual roles. Typecasting, stereotyping, and limited opportunities remain real challenges. But there's also progress happening, and the union is fighting to accelerate change. We spoke to three SAG-AFTRA members leading this fight: Hector Garcia, National Board member and Co-Vice Chair of the National Latino Committee; Natalia Castellanos, Chair of the National Latino Committee; and Vanessa Morales, Co-Vice Chair of the National Latino Committee. They discuss where Latino representation stands today and why something as simple as updating your member profile matters more than you might think. *The views expressed by guests are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views of their organization or SAG-AFTRA.

Have you been sitting on something you know you're meant to share… and still not putting it out? Yeah. Me too.This episode is a real, unfiltered look inside my creative life right now and into my literal diary. I share what I've been thinking about, what I've been struggling with, and the biggest shift that's changing everything for me:Choosing expression over perfection. And impressions. Because the truth is, most of us are not stuck because we are not talented enough. We are stuck because we are overthinking, comparing, waiting for the right moment, or trying to get everything perfect before we begin.In this episode, I share why I'm finally releasing music I've been sitting on for years, when it's coming out,  what my journaling practice is teaching me about creativity and anxiety, and how I'm learning to stop holding myself back and actually follow through on what matters.Learn: -How to stop holding back your creativity and actually share your work -Why choosing expression over perfection can change your creative life -What to do when you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or creatively stuck -How to stop comparing and trust your own creative path -Why you do not need the “perfect moment” to beginIf you've been waiting for a sign to release the thing, start the project, or put yourself out there, this is it.And if this episode resonates, it would mean so much if you shared it, left a rating and review, or sent me a message. I read everything and it really does keep me going.Now go make the thing! I believe in you!
