Comenzamos el podcast con la tertulia sobre la primera temporada de Starfleet Academy, una serie que ha sorprendido porque nadie esperaba nada de ella y, a pesar de estar hecha para un público más adolescente, nos ha gustado. En la línea de Star Trek Prodigy, material creado para otra franja de edad objetivo encaja en las temáticas, ideas e ideales trekkies, y es capaz de atraer a públicos más adultos. Centramos la tertulia bastante entorno a los personajes, y poco tiempo nos queda, dentro de la 1h y 45m que le dedicamos, para repasar los episodios. En cuanto al episodio de TNG, ‘Homeward', volvemos a tener visita de familiares, en este caso, Nikolai, el hermano humano de Worf. El episodio, que también nos ha gustado y nos ha sorprendido, ofrece la enésima discusión sobre la Primera Directriz, aunque creemos que bastante mal leída aquí, ya que, su aplicación estricta y fuera de su contexto o área de aplicación, para nosotros, deja extinguir a toda una civilización. El único que pone alma a la Primera Directriz es Nikolai, y nadie apoya su tesis.

Brett and Tim go back nearly 20 years — from the Gary Keller mastermind days to building massive businesses in Austin. In this episode, Tim breaks down how he went from getting rejected by 50 companies during the financial crisis to becoming Austin's #1 agent by age 24, building a $1B/year brokerage, and eventually raising hundreds of millions from Blackstone to start Homeward. They get into the real math behind cold calling, why hard work is just the entry fee, the painful lesson of starting too many businesses at once, and how Tim survived cutting 70% of his company when rates spiked in 2022.TIMESTAMPS0:00 Introduction2:05 Growing Up With Opposite Money Mindsets7:12 College, Finance Degree, No Job Offers9:25 Joining Keller Williams Out of Desperation13:00 The Sales Seminar That Changed Everything14:57 Building The Cold Calling Math17:13 Year Two Explosion: 8 Houses to 7018:12 Winning The Day vs The Scoreboard21:23 Meeting Brett in The Gary Keller Room25:27 The Private Gary Keller Mastermind28:18 First Real Estate Investment — Copying His Roommate32:06 Invest Where You Have An Unfair Advantage34:15 The Serial Entrepreneur Trap37:54 Waking Up Not Knowing How To Prioritize39:04 Multiple Streams of Income Is a Lie (Early On)41:46 Hard Work Is An Entry Fee, Not The Key45:15 Three Phases: Hustle, Leadership, Money48:11 Seventh Level — Getting Out of The Day-to-Day49:25 Seeing Opendoor's Model and Starting Homeward53:11 Buy Before You Sell Takes Off56:20 Interest Rates Spike — Revenue Falls Off a Cliff57:49 Cutting 70% of Costs and Rebuilding1:04:40 Nothing Is Ever As Good Or As Bad As It Seems1:06:48 Gary Keller Lessons — Don't Force Growth1:09:57 The One Thing — Focus and Fear of Chaos1:14:12 Gary Taking Out The Trash — The Leverage Lesson1:17:03 Top 5 People You Spend Time With1:17:22 Three Book Recommendations1:19:17 Best Purchase Under $2001:19:50 Advice To 21-Year-Old TimBOOKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED- The Millionaire Real Estate Agent by Gary Keller- The One Thing by Gary Keller- The Intentional Father by Jon Tyson- The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz- Shift by Gary Keller- The Innovator's Dilemma by Clayton ChristensenGET CONNECTEDWebsite: www.BeWealthy.comYouTube: youtube.com/@bewealthybrettInstagram: instagram.com/bewealthybrettFacebook: facebook.com/brettbewealthyX/Twitter: x.com/bewealthybrettFREE RESOURCESFree Tools & Downloads: https://www.bewealthybrett.com/resourcesCost Segregation Studies & 45L Tax Credit: SingleFamilyCostSeg.comInfinite Banking Education: SaveLikeaBank.comSelf-Directed IRA: MaxOutRetirement.comTrust & Entity Structure: SetupMyEstate.comOff-Market Deals & Direct Mail: TheMagicMailers.com1031 Exchange: Exchange1031Now.comBookkeeping & Financial Services: BooksOffMyPlate.comPPC & Digital Marketing for RE Investors: ScaleMyDeals.comABOUT THE SHOWThe Be Wealthy Podcast brings entrepreneurs the strategies to grow their business — then teaches them how to think about their money.

Only Worf would have ANOTHER brother played by none other than Mr. Capulet himself, Paul Sorvino. It's great to see Michael Dorn on his back feet, and, without his prosthetics, he acts even harder. There's a planet being "observed" by Starfleet with a pre-technology culture that's been full-on infiltrated by the un-Prime Directive respecting adopted brother of Worf. The planet is about to die, and Nikolai Rozhenko ain't having it (but he is having a baby.) He cooks up a plan to abduct the people and trick them on the Holodeck, but guess what? Everything goes wrong. Perhaps the prime directive should be respected, Captain. But the brothers hug, so that's good.   Please send us any thoughts on the series to LetsReEngage@gmail.com or on Bluesky, Greg's social media of choice.

Only so much time before we encountered John Locke, the Stepfather of the Star Trek universe. Riker meets his Captain from another Ship - the USS Pegasus - which was deemed lost 12 years ago. Well, it's back, and the Romulans want it. That's when we discover there's a lot more in Riker's past that made him the No. 1 he is today, including new phaser settings (mutiny!).

In this episode, we observe the yearning to be back home, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 204, penned by Madurai Kaamakani Nappaalathanaar. The verse is situated amidst the buzzing bees of the ‘Mullai’ or ‘Forest landscape’ and relays the emotions at the end of a mission. உலகு உடன் நிழற்றிய தொலையா வெண்குடை,கடல் போல் தானை, கலிமா, வழுதிவென்று அமர் உழந்த வியன் பெரும் பாசறைச்சென்று, வினை முடித்தனம்ஆயின், இன்றேகார்ப் பெயற்கு எதிரிய காண்தகு புறவில்,கணம் கொள் வண்டின் அம் சிறைத் தொழுதிமணம் கமழ் முல்லை மாலை ஆர்ப்ப,உதுக்காண் வந்தன்று பொழுதே; வல் விரைந்து,செல்க, பாக! நின் நல் வினை நெடுந் தேர்வெண்ணெல் அரிநர் மடி வாய்த் தண்ணுமைபல் மலர்ப் பொய்கைப் படு புள் ஓப்பும்காய் நெல் படப்பை வாணன் சிறுகுடித்தண்டலை கமழும் கூந்தல்,ஒண் தொடி மடந்தை தோள் இணை பெறவே. In addition to visiting the fragrant forests, we also take a detour to visit a famous Sangam town, as we listen to the man say these words to his charioteer, after completing his mission of war: “Having a flawless, white royal umbrella that renders shade to the world entire, a sea-like army, and proud horses, the Pandya King has won the war with determined efforts, and we have completed our mission in this wide and expansive battle-camp. Right now, in that picturesque forest, which has been showered by clouds of the rainy season, swarms of beautiful bees buzz around fragrant wild jasmines in the evening hour. Lo behold! That time has come! Hasten, O charioteer, and wield your well-crafted, decorated, tall chariot! Those who harvest paddy beat on the ‘thannumai drums', having a folded leather cover, to chase away birds, heading from many flowered groves, from those fertile fields with ripe paddy grains, in the town of ‘Sirukudi', ruled by ‘Vaanan'. That young maiden with shining bangles, has tresses that waft with the scent of the moist orchards in Vaanan's Sirukudi! Rush on, O charioteer, so that I can embrace her arms soon!” Time to speed along with this traveller through the forests! The man starts by talking about how he had come to serve his king, a scion of the Pandya dynasty, who had extended the shade of his rule to the world entire. An exaggeration, no doubt, but we can read it as ‘world as they knew it’! This King had claimed victory in the battlefield and so the man’s mission was complete. While that was good news, the season of rains, which was his promised season of return, had already arrived and was make the forests smile with wild jasmines, inviting the bees in the evening hour. At this time, the man asks his charioteer to speed on and take him to his lady, whose tresses he places in parallel to the many-flowered, moist orchards in the town of ‘Sirukudi’, ruled by ‘Vaanan’, a place filled with lush paddy fields, where people used beat their drums to chase away birds that came to raid ripe grains. The man concludes by telling his charioteer that he wished for nothing more than embracing his beloved’s arms as soon as possible! In essence, it’s a ‘take me home, right now’ message, celebrating the beauty of the lady and acknowledging the changing seasons. That moment of reunion that a person who had parted away yearns for, that’s something that’s a constant across the ages, and across the miles of this world! These words from the past seem to tell us, ‘No matter how great a mission we have accomplished, nothing can match the joy of being back in the presence of love’!

Jeff sits down with Charlene Ferrell White, a veterinarian with Homeward Vet, to discuss the growing demand for mobile, in-home veterinary care across Lake Norman and the greater Charlotte area. Charlene shares her path from Northern Virginia to NC State Vet School, followed by experience in emergency and general practices in Colorado and California, before discovering her passion for house-call medicine. The conversation highlights how mobile care creates a calmer, more personal experience for pets and owners alike—especially for busy professionals, work-from-home households, anxious dogs, and cats that struggle with traditional clinic visits.They also explore what sets Homeward Vet apart, including longer appointment times, concierge-level service, and comprehensive offerings such as wellness care, vaccinations, acupuncture, hospice, and end-of-life support. Charlene explains how pricing compares to brick-and-mortar practices, the convenience for multi-pet households, and Homeward Vet's local partnerships, including referrals to Main Street Veterinary Hospital when advanced diagnostics or surgery are needed. The episode wraps with upcoming community events, service areas throughout Lake Norman and Charlotte, and how listeners can easily book appointments or follow Homeward Vet on social media.Homeward Vet@homewardvet_charlottenc | https://www.facebook.com/HomewardVetCharlotteNCEvents mentioned:https://humanesocietyofcharlotte.org/pet-palooza/https://www.tawbawalk.com/---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lake Norman's #1 Podcast & Email NewsletterThe Best of LKNhttps://thebestoflkn.com/Hosted by:Jeff Hammwww.lknreal.comThanks to Safe harbor Peninsula Yacht Club for their support!Support the show

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast. In today's episode, I'm joined by Celi Arias for a deeply real conversation about what it takes to build a healthy, sustainable business in a world that's constantly selling you a formula. Celi and I talk about the urgency of this moment- how fast technology is moving, how easy it is to get swept up in the "quick win" hype- and why learning the actual rules of business can be one of the most regulating, empowering things you ever do. We dig into right-sizing your business around the life you want, the difference between borrowed strategies and aligned strategy, and the sneaky ways self-judgment keeps entrepreneurs stuck, especially when you're trying to figure out something new and convincing yourself you "should" already know how to do it. Celi shares her journey from scrappy, immigrant entrepreneurship to building a framework (and software) designed to help people succeed without copy-pasting someone else's blueprint, and we close with an edgy question that will help you identify the "one thing" in your business you're afraid to change… and why that might be the exact place your next level is hiding.

Guests: Teresa Haskins, LMHC & Billy Haskins, Associate Pastor of Plainfield Christian Church Parenting teens today looks and feels very different than it did even a decade ago. In this episode, April sits down with therapist Teresa Haskins and her husband, Pastor Billy Haskins, for an honest conversation about the real challenges facing teens and the parents who love them. Together, they explore how identity is formed during adolescence, why teens reach for autonomy, and how parents can support that process without losing the connection that matters most.Listeners will hear about the pressures today's teens face academically, socially, and digitally, including the role of comparison, perfectionism, and fear of failure. Teresa and Billy discuss how social media shapes teens' sense of belonging, how parents can navigate digital boundaries without shaming, and why phones aren't the root cause—or the solution—to every struggle.The conversation also highlights the importance of self-awareness in parenting. Teresa explains why managing our own emotions is essential, especially when our teens' choices activate our fears. Billy offers encouragement around letting go of perfect parenting and focusing instead on intentional presence. The episode includes practical steps parents can take this week to lower tension, strengthen connection, and create more meaningful conversations with their teens.Resources mentioned include: The Anxious Generation, Parenting From the Inside Out, Boundaries with Teens, Jim Burns' Understanding Your Teen, and podcasts from Homeward, All Pro Dad, and iMom.Whether you're navigating academic pressure, digital boundaries, mood swings, or the tension between freedom and accountability, this episode offers wisdom, compassion, and realistic tools for the journey. If you're feeling discouraged or unsure of your next step, Care to Change is here to help. Discover more resources and support at caretochange.org.Quote 1: “What really matters is not perfect parenting, but it's just authentic presence in your kids lives." Billy HaskinsQuote 2: “Your teen doesn't need you to be a dictator or a helicopter—they need you to listen, stay curious, and trust that they're becoming who they were created to be.” Teresa Haskins

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast. In our final episode of 2025, I'm dropping us right into the heart of the work: the frequency we repeatedly choose becomes the reality we live in. In this conversation, we explore the main premise, the core belief system that acts as the operating system for your entire life and business.

This episode is a special collab conversation with my friend and fellow business mentor, Amber Lilyestrom — business coach, speaker, host of the Homeward podcast, and author/poet behind little big beautiful things and Master Your Money Mind. We're talking about what it really means to build a right-sized, human-centric business in an industry that's constantly pushing “bigger, faster, more.”Amber and I dig into scrappy entrepreneurship, high-touch containers, and designing offers that honor both your clients' transformation and the actual life you want to be living. She shares candidly about her journey from traditional online business models into something more intimate, sustainable, and values-aligned, and we unpack what it looks like to scale what matters most instead of chasing every version of “more.”We also explore multidimensionality in your brand—letting all of who you are come through in your work—and how that impacts congruence, magnetism, money, and the way clients experience you.In this episode, we talk about:What a right-sized, human-centric business looks like in real life (beyond the buzzwords)Why high-touch, intimate containers can be more sustainable and satisfying than large, low-touch programsThe realities behind “scaling,” low-ticket launches, memberships, and volume-based models—and what most people don't see behind the scenesHow Amber thinks about scaling what matters most: her clients' outcomes, her creativity, her time, and her energyHow both of our backgrounds (Broadway and yoga studios for me, early scrappy entrepreneurship and big launches for Amber) shaped the way we think about business, money, and impactLetting yourself be the heart of the business instead of trying to disappear behind systems, funnels, or “passive” everythingMultidimensionality in a personal brand—bringing your creativity, quirks, and other passions into your work instead of keeping everything compartmentalizedWhy the work of helping clients make money and grow their businesses goes far beyond strategy and into identity, mindset, and who you're willing to be as the leader of your businessIf you've been craving real talk about business models, “scaling,” sustainability, and building something that actually feels like you, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale and a powerful reminder that you're allowed to build a right-sized business that scales what matters most to you.Connect with Amber on Instagram at @amberlilyestrom, listen to her podcast Homeward, and check out her poetry collection little big beautiful things and her program ELEVATE.Get Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast

Nearly 60 million Americans live in these areas, yet many struggle to access even basic healthcare as rural hospitals close at record rates.Dr. Jennifer Schneider, co-founder and CEO of Homeward Health, is tackling this crisis head-on by reimagining how care is delivered to Medicare Advantage members in rural America.

In today's installment of Stand Up, Tim and Mary take on a batch of headlines that point to the continuing global delusion of peace and unity. Every Christian should understand by now that what is going on in the Middle East was never about establishing a state, but destroying one. It is so obvious to so many and yet here we are, with the US and many other nations just deluding themselves around the clock. We discuss Tony Blair's role in Gaza, a clear delusion. We talk about the disintegration of Portland and why it will never likely improve, but spread; we look at Communion America, a great delusion for the church; and Trump's deal with Pfizer, delusion that began in 2020 and never really goes away. Why would he make a deal with such a corrupt and wicked corporation? And still another abortion pill goes to market. It just gets more wicked out there, but hallelujah, we have God's Word: blessed is that one who doesn't walk, stand, or sit with the wicked (Psalm 1)  Homeward, saints!

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast.  I am honored to share today's conversation with the incredibly wise + paradigm-shifting David Bedrick.  David Bedrick, JD, Dipl. PW, is a teacher, counselor, and attorney. He grew up in a family marked by violence. While his father's brutality was physical and verbal, his mother's denial and gaslighting had its own covert power. This formative context introduced David early to the etiology of shame and instilled an urge to unshame. Professionally, he was on the faculty for the University of Phoenix and the Process Work Institute in the U.S. and Poland and is the founder of the Santa Fe Institute for Shame-based Studies where he trains therapists, coaches and healers and offers workshops for individuals to further their own personal development. David writes for Psychology Today and is the author of three books: Talking Back to Dr. Phil: Alternatives to Mainstream Psychology and Revisioning Activism: Bringing Depth, Dialogue, and Diversity to Individual and Social Change. His new book is You Can't Judge a Body by Its Cover: 17 Women's Stories of Hunger, Body Shame and Redemption. Today's conversation serves as its own masterclass in unshaming. You'll hear David help me tease out my own inner critic and walk us through the unshaming process to find the flower (the gift) in our pain.  I can't wait for you to listen.  Links Mentioned:  Order The Unshaming Way: https://a.co/d/dYTwNa7 Learn more on David's website: https://www.davidbedrick.com/  Follow him over on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/david.bedrick/    Tag me in your big shifts + takeaways: @amberlilyestrom Did you hear something you loved here today?!

Welcome back to the Homeward podcast.  In today's conversation I'm sharing what I learned over the weekend after a pretty serious hack attempt on an old account, and what it opened for me as a lesson underneath.  Plus, I talk truth about the words: if the dream is in you, it's for you. How it isn't just a nice phrase, how it's the ultimate truth, and why you must trust that knowing in you + walk toward it with all your power.
