In this week's episode of the Do Good to Lead Well podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Lindsay Dodd, the CEO of Cashco Financial, for an enlightening conversation about how to build an award-winning culture. He reveals how purpose and profitability can successfully coexist, emphasizing a people-first mindset that champions dignity, trust, and empowerment. His insights showcase how Cashco Financial has consistently earned recognition as one of Alberta's best workplaces for five consecutive years. We explore leadership not as a set of inherent qualities, but as learned behaviors such as courage, confidence, empathy, and resilience, drawing from frameworks that advocate for modeling the way and inspiring a shared vision.Our discussion delves into the true meaning of authentic leadership, defining it as a consistent commitment to building trust by aligning our actions with our values and beliefs. Lindsay illustrates how genuine vulnerability, coupled with an openness to feedback and a commitment to inclusive workplaces, strengthens bonds and fosters collaboration. We explore practical strategies for navigating challenging peer interactions, stressing the importance of curiosity and addressing issues directly yet calmly. Additionally, Lindsay shares CashCo's unique cultural practices, from hiring based on empathy to an “upside-down triangle” leadership model that prioritizes frontline staff, reinforcing values through daily core value stories.As we look to the future, the conversation addresses the complexities of leading in a polarized society and the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence. Lindsay offers advice on finding common ground amidst differing opinions and encourages leaders to engage with new technologies, learning and playing with them to discover new opportunities while managing risks.

Carrying around endless “shoulds” can feel like a crushing backpack of pebbles. This episode helps you set them down and trade them for truth and freedom. For years I lived under the weight of “shoulds”. I should stay in this job, I should be more grateful, I should run my business like they do. It left me exhausted, resentful, and depleted. When I started questioning those shoulds, everything changed. In this conversation, I'll walk you through how to swap shoulds for wants and lighten your load. Action Steps: -Notice your shoulds: Pay attention to how often they creep into your thoughts. -Question the rules: Ask whether a should truly belongs to you or if it's borrowed. -Swap language: Replace “I should” with “I want” or “I choose” and feel the difference. -Write them down: Identify three shoulds and rewrite them into aligned wants or no's. -Seek truth, not perfection: Remember that freedom comes from living your own definition of success.

Health insurance or health cost-sharing—which is the better fit for your family? With open enrollment upon us, it's the perfect moment to explore your choices. Joining me today is Lauren Gajdek to highlight the key differences between health insurance and health cost-sharing.Lauren Gajdek is the Senior Director of External Affairs at Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM), an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Landscape of Traditional Health InsuranceOpen enrollment season is right around the corner—running from November 1 through January 15, 2026. For most people, that means navigating the world of traditional health insurance. These plans typically require you to select doctors and specialists within a designated provider network, often necessitating referrals or pre-authorization before receiving care.While insurance companies provide coverage, their structure can come at a high cost. Premiums and deductibles are often steep, and because insurers operate for profit, patient care and affordability don't always align. For many families, this creates a significant financial burden.How Health Cost Sharing Is DifferentHealth cost-sharing ministries, such as CHM, offer a unique alternative. The end result is the same—your medical bills are taken care of—but the process looks very different.No provider networks: Members are free to choose their own doctors and hospitals.Nonprofit model: Unlike insurance companies, CHM is a ministry. Members send in a set monthly contribution, which is pooled together to reimburse medical costs.Community approach: Instead of being absorbed into a bureaucratic system, members know that their contributions directly help fellow believers in need.Since its founding, CHM has facilitated over $10 billion in shared medical bills.How Does Health Cost-Sharing Work?Here's how it works for a typical family:Choose your provider. Members can see any doctor or hospital as long as the treatment fits CHM's guidelines.Identify as self-pay. This allows members to receive significant discounts often, sometimes as high as 40%.Submit bills to CHM. The ministry coordinates with providers as needed. In the meantime, members may set up a temporary payment plan until reimbursement arrives.The process is straightforward, designed to give families peace of mind while also offering flexibility and savings.What to Keep in Mind During Open EnrollmentWhen weighing your options, consider more than just the monthly premium. Ask:How much am I actually paying out-of-pocket after deductibles, co-pays, and coinsurance?Will my coverage travel with me if I go out of state—or out of the country?With CHM, members don't face co-pays or coinsurance, and qualifying medical bills are shared 100% according to ministry guidelines. Additionally, portability makes it an appealing option for families who want flexibility, regardless of where life takes them.A Biblical Approach to HealthcareAt its core, CHM is more than a healthcare solution—it's a ministry. Members not only share medical expenses but also pray for one another and receive prayer support in return. Every monthly contribution is a gift that directly helps another member in need.CHM reflects biblical principles of bearing one another's burdens while providing a practical, affordable path to healthcare.To explore whether health cost sharing is right for your family this open enrollment season, visit CHMinistries.org/Faith.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm refinancing my home and am unsure whether I should roll the closing costs into the new loan or pay them from my investments or retirement accounts. Rolling them into the loan would lower my monthly payment, but is that the wisest choice financially—and biblically?Could you explain where the funds actually come from with a reverse mortgage, who technically owns the home in this arrangement, and whether the FHA backs the loan?My wife and I recently took a required minimum distribution from her IRA and made a qualified charitable distribution to our church. They told us it wasn't tax-deductible and wouldn't issue a receipt.

In this episode of the Lead Ministry Podcast, Josh Denhart and Bill Van Kirk kick off October's focus on Training Volunteers. They unpack what real training is, why it matters, and how any leader can begin immediately. They explore the culture you carry, the power of qualifying people, and why training is the bridge between enlistment and retention for healthy teams.If you've ever felt stuck running a “Swiss cheese” ministry where volunteers slip through the cracks, this episode will equip and inspire you with practical next steps to train with purpose and retain with joy.Key Topics CoveredDefinition of training – Forming habits, thoughts, and behaviors through instructionTrain vs. drain – Why skipping training leaves people exhaustedQualifying people – A pathway to confidence, clarity, and careKey Quote“Train is putting in; drain is leaking out. Be the leader who puts in.”Scripture ReferencesEphesians 4:11–13 – “to equip the saints for the work of ministry…”1 Corinthians 11:1 – “Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.”TakeawayDon't hand a mic to an untrained volunteer and hope for the best. Identify your weakest area, gather the faithful few, meet right after a service, ask good questions, and co-build a simple plan. Training is discipleship in motion—and it keeps good people for the long haul.Call to ActionWe hope this episode encourages and equips you.

““Just because you make the final decision does not mean you were the cause.” — Lora Cheadle Terrified you'll make the wrong move and “blow up” your life—even though you didn't cause the betrayal? In this episode, Lora Cheadle breaks down why smart, high-achieving women get stuck in analysis paralysis after infidelity and how to shift from panic to self-trust. Learn to spot fight/flight/freeze/fawn (fix), regulate your nervous system in minutes, and make clear decisions you won't regret. You'll also get a powerful responsibility reframe (final decision ≠ cause) plus Lora's unforgettable “dog-poop on the carpet” analogy to help you choose the right next step—therapy, coaching, or pause—without fear of “messing it up.” Perfect for women ready to reclaim their voice, their worth, and their future. Top 3 Takeaways Regulate before you decide: Identify fight/flight/freeze/fawn and use quick somatic resets to bring your thinking brain back online. Final decision ≠ cause: Choosing divorce—or staying—doesn't mean you “blew it up.” Accountability stays with the betrayer. Your strengths were hijacked, not wrong: You weren't cheated on because you're weak; your high-achiever traits were exploited. Use them now to choose wisely.   “You were not cheated on because you're worthless. You were cheated on because you're powerful.” – Lora Cheadle  

Guest: Dia Bondi Guest Bio: Dia Bondi is a Communications Catalyst for high-impact people. In her private coaching and programs, she works with C-level leaders, VC-backed founders, and ambitious professionals, helping them find their voice and lead with it. Her workshops and talks are hosted by corporations including Quartz, Salesforce, Google's X-team, and Dropbox. In global sport, she helped Rio de Janeiro secure the 2016 Summer Olympics. After attending auctioneering school for fun, she translated the techniques she learned into a program that prepares ambitious professionals, and especially women, to ask for more and leave nothing on the table, called Ask Like an Auctioneer. She's been featured on CNBC Make It, Forbes, and Fast Company. Her book, Ask Like an Auctioneer: How to Ask for More and Get It, is available now.​   Key Points: Dia's Backstory & Career Path Started her career in fitness, where she loved helping people feel powerful and embodied. Then, transitioned into training and development (professional development) after college. She discovered her passion for storytelling and communication while observing a workshop for finance leaders. Dia founded Dia Bondy Communications in 2009 to help leaders and VC-backed founders communicate effectively in high-stakes moments.   "Ask Like an Auctioneer" Concept Inspired by her side work as a fundraising auctioneer. The key principle: ask big enough to get a “no”, because a “no” signals you've reached the upper limit of what's possible. In business, people often limit their asks based on what they think they can get, leaving money and opportunity on the table. Instead of selling to the first yes, push further to uncover maximum value.   Overcoming Fear of Asking Fear of rejection keeps people from asking boldly. Many assume rejection damages relationships, but often it doesn't. Leaders should teach teams that discomfort (the Zofo—Zone of Freaking Out) is a signal of courage and potential growth. Reframe rejection: it's information about value, not a judgment of personal worth.   Lessons from Auctioneering for Business & Sales · Price = a reflection of value, not worth. The same item can sell for vastly different amounts depending on the audience. · Know your “reserve.” Like an auctioneer's minimum acceptable price, know your bottom line before asking. · People are irrational. Decisions are often emotional, even in data-driven environments—so storytelling is critical.   Four Types of Asks That Drive Growth 1.     Money – dollars, budgets, contracts. 2.     Influence – visibility, access to networks, platforming yourself. 3.     Authority – positioning yourself to make important decisions. 4.     Balance – aligning deals and clients with the kind of work you actually want.   Why People Struggle with Asking Fear of rejection. Lack of clarity on what to ask for and when to ask. Sometimes people make asks that are too small, too vague, or to the wrong audience.   Framework for a Strategic Ask (first 4 of 6 steps) Define your main concrete goal. Identify the next big move toward that goal. Determine the ask that advances that move. Ensure the ask is big enough to risk rejection. Storytelling Framework: “Blocker Buster” What your audience wants. What's blocking them from achieving it? How do you remove the blockers?

In this episode of Perfect Prey, I sit down with Vanessa Reiser, LCSW, a renowned psychotherapist, speaker, and advocate who has dedicated her career to helping survivors of narcissistic abuse and coercive control reclaim their lives. Vanessa is the founder of Tell a Therapist, a nationwide telehealth platform, and the author of Narcissistic Abuse: A Therapist's Guide, a groundbreaking resource that not only unpacks the devastating impact of narcissistic and cult abuse but also offers clinicians the training and tools they need to support survivors in the healing process.Together, we explore what coercive control looks like in real life. We talk about why certain people are more vulnerable to narcissistic abuse, the toll it takes on mental health, and how survivors can begin to recognize the patterns and break free.We also shine a light on the unique challenges survivors face in family court when narcissistic abuse is involved, and why therapist training in this area is so urgently needed. Vanessa's book is an essential guide for professionals and survivors alike, offering not just insight but hope—that recovery is possible, and that healing from narcissistic abuse is about reclaiming your voice, your power, and your life.Connect with Vanessa:Narcissistic Abuse: A Therapist's Guide: https://www.amazon.com/Narcissistic-Abuse-Therapists-Identifying-Manipulative/dp/0306833174Tell a Therapist: https://tellatherapist.net/Follow Vanessa on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vanessareiserlcsw/Resources Mentioned in this Podcast:

Welcome to this explosive, fact-finding edition of Light ‘Em Up!We're very pleased you decided to join us!With the nation abuzz with the shooting of Charlie Kirk — his shooting recalls a disturbing pattern: Even the champions of “pro-gun” politics are not immune to America's epidemic of gun violence.We've been flooded with requests from our clients to address in-depth Special Event Contingency Planning for Public Safety Agencies — and that's exactly what we are going to do.In an era where public discourse is increasingly polarized and high-profile events carry heightened risk; the shooting of Charlie Kirk raises urgent questions about how we protect both speakers and attendees.This episode explores the intersection of Special Event Contingency Planning and political symbolism, unpacking how public safety agencies can—and must—design protocols that anticipate threats without compromising civil liberties.We examine the anatomy of a well-executed safety plan, the psychological dynamics of radicalized environments, and the strategic blind spots that can turn a rally into a crisis. Whether you're a public safety professional, a communications strategist, or simply someone concerned with the fragile balance between free speech and public harm—this conversation is for you.This episode will provide essential guidance for event planners, speakers and ticket holders/(spectators). This episode is an in-depth, thorough examination of how to keep events like Charlie Kirk's safe, for all involved.Physical Security is the focus of Rizzo's Protective Group, Ltd.As education is always a key pillar of Light ‘Em Up, by the end of this episode if we achieve our learning objectives in full, you will:Understand clearly and be able to:Define what qualifies an event as being “special” and—    Identify for your own edification and knowledge what a special event contingency planning team consists of and looks like.—   You'll be guided in conducting a hazard analysis for a special event.—   You'll hear how the incident command system (ICS) can be used in response to an incident at a special event.—   We'll give examples of special events (providing clear direction on how you must prepare for them as a provider and spectator).Mark my words, clearly, security measures are going to change and change drastically following this incident.Special Event Contingency planning involves creating a formal document with detailed procedures, responsibilities, and actions to address potential emergencies or hazards during a public gathering, such as at a festival, concert, or sporting event.A few of the main aspects, goals and strategies when conducting a thorough hazard analysis are to:—    identify risks,—    develop a response strategy,—    establish a command structure with assigned roles,—    and define communication protocols for both internal and external stakeholders, including attendees and emergency services.—    The primary goal is to prevent injury, suffering, or death by ensuring the event is safe and successful despite unforeseen circumstances.Don't move a muscle!Tune out the world and tune-in to Light ‘Em Up.  Right here and right now!You can listen to us:  on-the-go, at work, home or when resting.Remember that we are here for you and because of you!In a time of uncertainty, facts provide clarity … even if they upset you!This episode is rated “E” for EVERYONE!Tune in and follow our sponsors Newsly and Feedspot!We want to hear from you!

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Why Your To-Do List Is Killing Your Productivity October 3, 2025 | Episode 5195 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Your to-do list isn't helping you get more done. It's actually sabotaging your productivity. Scott breaks down the real reason successful people feel overwhelmed despite having all the right systems. Spoiler alert: It's not about adding more techniques or apps. This episode reveals a simple four-step approach that eliminates decision fatigue and gets the right things done. Perfect for anyone tired of running in circles while their important goals collect dust. Featured Story Scott opens up about his own productivity struggles and why he's considering a complete theme change for his show. He shares his honest moment of realizing that even productivity experts can fall into the "more is better" trap. The breakthrough came when he stopped trying to organize everything and started throwing away what didn't matter first. Like cleaning out those 50,000 albums we used to have (kids, ask your mom what an album is). This personal revelation led to his current system that keeps successful people focused on what actually moves the needle. Important Points The more you remove, the easier it gets to have exactly what you want. Stop adding productivity systems and start eliminating tasks that don't deserve your attention. Four D's beat endless to-do lists every time. Delete, Delegate, Delay, or Do - run every task through this filter and watch your overwhelm disappear. Three important things per day is enough. When you're done with three, call it done - even if there's another 10 or 20 things waiting. Memorable Quotes "The more you take away, the more you clear things out, the easier it gets to have exactly what you want." "Sometimes the buck stops with you. Now that everything else is off your plate, you have time to do it, don't you?" "Winning the day is about making sure the most important things in your life get done. What's it going to be today?" Scott's Three-Step Approach Audit your current tasks. Write down everything on your to-do list and run each item through the four D's - can you delete, delegate, delay, or do it. Ask the daily priority question. What's the most important thing to do today? Limit yourself to three things and call it done when they're finished. Set up a delegation system. Identify three things you could get someone else to handle and create a simple handoff process you can repeat. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Key Highlights Embrace Change and Build Your S Curve Whitney emphasizes the importance of continuously “disrupting yourself”—intentionally jumping from your current expertise to a fresh learning curve. This creates new opportunities for growth and prevents stagnation. “If I stay here, I'll stop growing and I'll start dying.” Your Network is Your Career Moat Kelly illustrates how cultivating your network proactively acts as a shield, providing resilience in uncertain job markets and transitions. She advises, “How are you showing up every day?… That network, right, that is your moat.” Consistently nurture relationships—don't wait until you need them. Strategic Self Investment and Energy Management Claire recommends regular self-inventory to manage your energy and optimize what gives you purpose. Simple self-checks (“Where did my energy go today?”) help you identify what to double down on and what to eliminate, fueling sustainable, meaningful progress. Purposeful Growth and Holistic Well-being Jason highlights the ROI of investing not only in your skills but also in your well-being. He encourages us to measure outcomes like peace of mind and rest as real assets: “Gears that grind for too long get worn out and then thrown out. An investment in rest is vital.” Call-to-Action Here's my challenge to you this week. Identify one thing in your life that you want to improve. Maybe you want to understand how to use AI in your job. Maybe you want to become a better public speaker. Maybe you want to learn to be a better cook. Whatever it is, pick it. Then do some research. Find a course, a book, a coach, or a community. Pick a date to start. Not "someday." Not "when things slow down." An actual date on your calendar. The difference between people who grow and people who stay stuck isn't talent or time or money. It's the willingness to pick a date and show up Small, consistent action beats waiting for the "perfect" time every time.

Welcome to the Like Attracts Like Mindshift Challenge! Over the next 21 days, we are dropping a podcast a day with our most powerful mindset shifts and techniques. Join us as we go on a journey of self discovery and uncover the truth of who we are. On Day 2, we discuss how the mind is comprised of the story of us, or "who we believe we are". When we are put in high stress situations, or are under a lot of pressure, the stories we are telling about ourselves come out.  Action Step Today:  Think about the last few times that you were in a stressful or triggering situation. Identify and write down the story your mind was telling, or the thoughts and emotions that came out.  This is not to judge, but to observe and start to become familiar with the stories you are telling.   As always, if you want to discuss how any of these topics pertain to a specific area of your life, book a mindset shift session below: 1:1 Mindset & Performance Mentorship Calls: If you would like to book a session to move forward in the area discussed in this show or any other areas of your life, visit link below for further resources or booking schedule  https://hoo.be/patmahan   CONNECT WITH ME ON: Facebook https://www.facebook.com/likeattractslike11 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/patmahan_ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRDc1pT4/

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the idea of talking to yourself in the second person. More specifically using focused self talk to create your identity. There is some amazing new research out of Stanford and Dr. Andrew Huberman where he talks about the scientific discoveries regarding how self talk impacts a person's neurochemistry and autopilot. The connection is pretty simple. Self talk impacts identity, identity effects a person's long-term actions, and actions determine a person's success and achievement in life.So when you talk to yourself in the second person with empowering statements, it literally changes the chemical release of things like dopamine. And the expression of your genes. And it changes how your autopilot is wired. And that's significant because 95% your daily thoughts and actions are unconscious. Meaning that 95% are on autopilot. During this interview it's noted that when you say I, you're more focused on your intentions. Where as when you say you, it's your identity – which is more sticky then intentions.During this podcast John and Kelly discuss the concept of negative thoughts. And Dr. Andrew Huberman suggests that when a negative thought comes in your head, you simply identify it. Identify it as a thought and label it as not true. When you have the presence of mind to do that, it changes how the brain processes that negative thought. This episode is a must listen to for anyone that is doing the think it be it methodology. The end result is you will be changing your life GPS template to say YOU instead of I based on the latest neurophysiology research out of Stanford. In the show notes for providing an important video regarding self talk and its impact on you physically. Here it is as follows:Subject: Talk to Yourself Like This for 3 Days And Rewire Your Mind - Andrew Hubermanhttps://youtu.be/_io1BnTyog4?si=jajOzNOcvirdO8fVBuy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.
