Welcome back to the Rhythms For Life podcast! In this episode, Gabe and Rebekah sit down with their longtime friend, bestselling author, and Founder/Visionary of Gather. With a friendship spanning nearly 15 years, they dive into a timely conversation about where the church is headed and the radical movements of God happening right now. This conversation explores the heart of Jennie's newest book, The Lie You Don't Know You Believe, which addresses the specific spiritual attacks of our day and the freedom found on the other side of truth. From witnessing campus revivals to hearing raw stories of transformation through baptism, Jennie shares her perspective on why this so-called “dark” generation is actually more desperate and open to the Gospel than ever before. In this episode, you'll hear: The Power of Desperation: Why spiritual hunger is the essential ingredient for the unique outpourings of the Holy Spirit we are seeing today. A Pre-Christian Generation: How Gen Z is shifting from "post-church" to "pre-Christian," encountering the story of Jesus for the very first time without the baggage of deconstruction. From Darkness to Light: Radical stories of grace, including the baptisms of former atheists, practitioners of witchcraft, and those coming out of the juvenile justice system. Manifestations of the Spirit: Jennie's personal reflections on the physical manifestations of God's nearness and the theological wrestling that comes with witnessing revival. Identifying the Lie: How to recognize the "darkness pouring in" and how the simple, beautiful story of Jesus remains the answer to the collapse of everything around us.

If you've been putting in the work to heal your anxious attachment but still feel like you're treading water, this episode is for you. In today's episode, I'm sharing what I believe are the three core pillars of healing anxious attachment — and why the sequencing of that work matters just as much as the work itself.Whether you're just starting out or have been on this journey for a while, having a clear roadmap can be genuinely grounding. Lack of effort is rarely the problem for anxiously attached people — it's about making sure that energy is directed where it will have the greatest impact.In this episode, I cover:Why the mindset you bring to this work is the real foundation — and how approaching healing from a place of shame will undermine everything elseUnderstanding your nervous system and building the capacity to self-regulate (hint: it's about much more than crisis management)Identifying and shifting the negative core beliefs and core wounds that shape your relationships — and why real self-worth is built through doing, not just affirmationsCommunication skills, boundary-setting, and voicing your needs — and why starting here without the previous two pillars often falls flatThe common pitfall that keeps so many people stuck, and what to focus on instead

On this solo episode, Travis Chappell continues his series on “25 Questions to Live a Better Life,” drawing from years of door-to-door sales, entrepreneurship, and podcasting to unpack the exact prompts he uses to rethink beliefs, handle hard seasons, and choose better long-term outcomes. He walks through questions 5–10 of his list, mixing personal stories, mental models, and thought experiments you can steal to upgrade your thinking and your life. On this episode we talk about: Why “When was the last time I changed my mind about a belief?” reveals whether you're actually growing Using “This sucks, but what's the alternative?” to push through necessary hard things How to map out “What is the worst case scenario and is it really that bad?” so fear stops running the show The power of asking “Why am I feeling this emotion?” to shift from reactive to intentional “Who do I know that has the results I want?” and “What are our cigarettes?” as long-term filters for your environment and worldview Top 3 Takeaways If you've never changed your mind about a core belief, it likely means you've never truly examined where your values came from or whether they're actually yours. Most “worst case scenarios” are far less catastrophic than we imagine, and clearly defining them makes it easier to take the risks required for a better life. Identifying people who already have the results you want—and humbly modeling what works for them—is one of the fastest ways to accelerate your own progress. Notable Quotes “If all of your core beliefs were passed down to you and you can't articulate why you believe them, odds are they're not your beliefs.” “This sucks, but what's the alternative?” “What are our cigarettes—what do we view as normal now that people will vilify in 200 years?” Connect with Travis Chappell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/traviscchappell Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell Other: https://travischappell.com Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.

Get Your Spirit Back: Breaking Free from the Lies Holding You Back - with Pastor Earl McClellan What if the biggest thing holding you back isn't your circumstances… but the lies you've believed about yourself? In this powerful, deeply honest conversation, Bob & Linda sit down with Pastor Earl McClellan, lead pastor of Shoreline City Church and author of Get Your Spirit Back, to talk about negative self-talk, fear, calling, identity, and what it really looks like to walk by faith when you're scared. This isn't a hype-up, "just believe harder" episode. It's a grounded, biblical, and deeply human conversation about doing what God's calling you to do even when you don't feel qualified — and learning to see yourself the way God sees you, not the way others have labeled you. If you've ever felt stuck, hesitant, intimidated, or like you're living beneath your potential, this episode is for you. In This Episode, You'll Learn: The two powerful questions God asks repeatedly in Scripture — and why they change everything How negative self-talk creates "self-made prisons" (and how to walk out of them) Why Gideon's story resonates so deeply with fear, insecurity, and calling What it means to do the hard thing scared — and why that's often real faith How other people's words (teachers, parents, leaders) quietly shape our identity Why community is essential for spiritual growth — and why "just me and God" isn't enough How to handle criticism, misunderstanding, and being judged for your motives The difference between humility and shrinking back from what God has asked you to do A powerful picture of laying down both criticism and praise before God Key Moments & Themes: "Who told you?" — Identifying the source of the lies you're believing Earl's upbringing with a single mom and how God used unlikely environments to shape his calling The freedom that comes from realizing you cannot control how others perceive you Why tearing down old "altars" from your past is part of stepping into your future The danger of listening to voices that don't have authority in your life Learning to accept God-given responsibility without turning it into pride A Quote You'll Want to Sit With: "The pride isn't stepping forward — the pride is refusing to step into what God has asked you to do." Action Step for This Week: Ask God — honestly and quietly — these two questions: "Where am I really?" "Who told me this about myself?" Then, share what comes up with one trusted, godly person in your life. Don't process it alone. Resources Mentioned: Get Your Spirit Back by Earl McClellan - https://www.amazon.com/Get-Your-Spirit-Back-Self-Talk/dp/0593445643 The story of Gideon (Judges 6–7, NLT) Revelation 4 (the elders laying down their crowns) Final Encouragement: You don't have to feel ready. You don't have to feel confident. You just have to be willing. God isn't asking you to be fearless — He's asking you to be faithful.

So often we move through life repeating the same emotional loops without realizing the deeper belief driving them. In this meditation, I invite you to slow down, breathe, and gently uncover the belief connected to a pattern in your life that may be rooted in feeling unworthy.Together, we enter a calming visualization where you create a safe inner space, clarify a true desire that belongs fully to you, and symbolically plant that intention so it can grow. From there, I guide you through releasing the belief or pattern blocking that desire so you can return feeling lighter, more aligned, and more connected to your worth. If this meditation resonates with you, I'd also love to invite our Lotus Rising community to join me in Sedona on September 12th for Lotus Rising Live.

Many online businesses fail to grow not because of bad products, but because of bad hiring. In this episode of The Opportunity Podcast, Greg speaks with Mads Singers, a management coach who runs multiple recruitment businesses, to talk about where founders go wrong when building teams. One of the most important hiring considerations is cultural fit. Culture is defined by behavior, not by what's written on your website, but by what you allow. If missed deadlines slide or high performers behave poorly without consequences, that becomes the standard. New hires quickly adjust to whatever they see around them. We also discuss why personality often matters more than experience. Skills can be trained. Behavior is much harder to change. Matching someone's natural strengths to the role dramatically increases your odds of success. Mads also reveals how he finds the best talent. The strongest candidates are usually already employed. If you're just posting a job ad and waiting, you're likely missing them. Expanding your reach and being proactive increases your chances of finding someone exceptional. And if you're hiring a specialist in an area you don't understand? Borrow expertise. Bring in someone knowledgeable to assess technical skill, then set clear expectations from day one. Mads explains that hiring isn't about filling seats. It's about building a team that solves problems without you. That's what turns a stressful job into a scalable, sellable asset. If you're hiring right now, planning to hire, or feeling frustrated with your current team, this episode is worth a listen.

In "The Logistics of Growth: Scaling Freight Tech Companies", Joe Lynch and Will Urban, Founder and Principal of Will Urban Consulting, discuss the strategic intersection of traditional logistics discipline and high-velocity tech innovation to drive multi-billion dollar scale. About Will Urban Will Urban is the Founder and Principal of Will Urban Consulting, a premier advisory firm specializing in scaling global logistics and freight tech organizations. With over 30 years of executive leadership experience, Will has navigated the evolution of the industry at the highest levels, holding pivotal roles at both the traditional logistics powerhouse Expeditors and the digital disruptor Flexport. During his tenure as Chief Revenue Officer at Flexport, he was instrumental in driving the company's organic revenue growth from $600 million to over $5 billion. Today, Will leverages his extensive background as a full partner at R7 and a venture partner at firms like Companyon and Nine Realms. He is a deeply connected figure in the supply chain ecosystem, serving as an investor, advisor, and board member for numerous startups and venture capital firms, where he bridges the gap between complex logistics operations and institutional investment. About Will Urban Consulting (WUC) Will Urban Consulting (WUC) is an elite consultancy dedicated to helping supply chain and freight tech companies master the "Logistics of Growth." Founded by Will Urban following his successful tenure at Flexport, the firm occupies a unique niche by providing executive-level expertise that blends traditional logistics excellence with modern digital scale. WUC is comprised of a global team of specialists—many of whom are veterans of Expeditors and Flexport—who focus on refining go-to-market strategies, accelerating revenue growth, and building sustainable sales organizations. Beyond operational consulting, WUC acts as a strategic bridge to the capital markets, helping startups navigate the complexities of fundraising by leveraging a deep network of venture capital and private equity investors. Operating on a flexible, month-to-month model, WUC provides clients with immediate ROI and unparalleled access to a global network of shippers, carriers, and industry leaders. Key Takeaways: The Logistics of Growth: Scaling Freight Tech Companies In "The Logistics of Growth: Scaling Freight Tech Companies", Joe Lynch and Will Urban, Founder and Principal of Will Urban Consulting, discuss the strategic intersection of traditional logistics discipline and high-velocity tech innovation to drive multi-billion dollar scale. The Power of Hybrid Expertise: Will Urban offers a unique "ground-up" perspective by bridging the gap between traditional logistics giants (Expeditors) and modern digital disruptors (Flexport). This dual experience allows him to help companies balance the disciplined, P&L-focused rigor of established firms with the "move fast" agility of tech unicorns. The "Inside Man" for Fundraising: For startups, navigating the VC world is often a translation problem. Will acts as a strategic bridge, helping founders articulate the value of supply chain nuances to generalist investors and ensuring they pitch to the right firms whose investment appetite matches their specific business model. A "Disciplined Grind" for Scaling: There is no "silver bullet" for massive growth. Drawing from his experience leading Flexport from $600 million to over $5 billion in organic revenue, Will emphasizes that scaling requires a disciplined, high-execution grind and a focus on building sustainable, global go-to-market programs. Democratizing Technology (The Convoy/DAT Model): A significant trend in freight tech is the transition from standalone products to integrated ecosystems. The acquisition of Convoy's platform by DAT illustrates how best-in-class technology can be used to drastically reduce the "cost to cover" a load, democratizing high-end tools for smaller trucking operations. Economics Matter (P&L Discipline): Despite the high-growth expectations of venture capital, Will maintains that the P&L always matters. He advises tech companies to align their pricing with the transactional nature of the logistics industry, as many clients prefer transactional costs over fixed, bottom-line software fees. Leveraging Relational Capital: In an increasingly digital industry, deep human networks remain a primary driver of success. Will's 30-year network of shippers, carriers, and executives provides "warm" entry points that are often more valuable than any piece of software for securing market share. Identifying and Investing in "Grit": Beyond just technical viability, Will looks for "gumption" and persistence in founders. His investment philosophy—often through his family office or as a venture partner—prioritizes individuals who demonstrate the hustle and resilience required to survive the volatile cycles of the global supply chain.

Indigenous scholar Tyson Yunkaporta (Apalech clan (Wik) Lostmob Nungar) joins the Mongabay Newscast to detail the Aboriginal perspectives behind his latest book, Right Story, Wrong Story: Adventures in Indigenous Thinking. The book explains how stories shape society, how they can harm us and the environment, and how they may save our species and the natural world. Yunkaporta explains how Indigenous laws, systems and lore can help us improve modern society, specifically in how humans relate first to the land, then to each other, and why this shapes how we exploit nature and care for it. Identifying the "wrong story" is critical, Yunkaporta explains, to correcting harmful behaviors or ways of governing. Ultimately, it's a lie, he says. Personified by what he characterizes as narcissistic or selfish behavior, it's generally seen by those who exploit the natural world at the expense of community well-being. "It's a terrible thing to … misrepresent things, make false claims, bear false witness in a way that is bending story, the story that everybody follows. The narratives that people tell that weave together to make a community and to hold a community on the right path that's sustainable for thousands of years."

In this solo episode, Lisa Marker-Robbins challenges one of the most well-intentioned but counterproductive phrases adults often say to young people: “The job you'll end up doing hasn't even been invented yet.” Drawing on her work with 15–25-year-olds and their families, Lisa explains why this advice can unintentionally create paralysis rather than progress.She reframes the conversation around transferable skills, personal “through lines,” adaptability, and lifelong learning. Most importantly, she offers language shifts that replace vague reassurance with clarity, agency, and forward momentum.In this episode, you'll discover:The unintended consequences of common career advice given to young peopleHow transferable skills provide stability in a rapidly evolving job marketUnderstanding personality wiring and “through lines” as anchors in career development for all agesShifting career conversations with your family from prediction and passivity to action and agencyKey Takeaways: When young people hear “your job hasn't been invented yet,” they often internalize that planning is pointless and effort can wait, which leads to disengagement, procrastination, over-research without follow-through, or even fight-flight-freeze responses instead of forward movement.Even though job titles and roles evolve, the capability to do meaningful work compounds over time; the skills built in school, early jobs, and early decisions travel forward and remain relevant long after specific titles change.Identifying lifelong personal “through lines”—what energizes or drains them, the types of problems they enjoy solving, preferred environments and teams, and values that matter—gives young people a stable internal compass even when external circumstances shift.Career momentum is created through action, not prediction; making informed next steps rooted in present self-awareness builds traction and adaptability, whereas waiting for certainty or trying to forecast the future stalls progress. “Momentum comes from action, not prediction.” – Lisa Marker-RobbinsEpisode References:#214 “You Can Be Anything”: Why This Advice Backfires with Your Young Person: https://flourishcoachingco.com/214#215 Why “Follow Your Passion” Is Bad Career Advice—and What To Say Instead: https://flourishcoachingco.com/215Credential Value Index from Burning Glass Institute: https://www.credentialvalueindex.org/BLS (Bureau of Labor Statistics) Occupational Outlook Handbook: https://www.bls.gov/ooh/Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

“Show me an incentive structure and I'll show you human behavior... until employers realize they have more power than they give themselves credit for, this can't continue."My guest this week is Norm Volsky, Managing Partner at DRI and Founder of MVP Growth Partners. Norm has spent the last decade as one of the top executive recruiters in the digital health and employer benefits space - placing the commercial teams that helped build unicorns like Livongo and Hinge Health.In this episode, Norm explains why the next wave of healthcare innovation isn't about adding more "point solutions" to an already fatigued market. Instead, smart money is betting on companies that carve out high-margin, inefficient services directly from the major insurance carriers - like radiology, fertility, and specialty infusion.We discuss how Norm built an "army" of over 500 industry executives to crowdsource due diligence, why the traditional VC model fails in healthcare, and why employers and their benefits leaders are finally at a watershed moment where they must demand true fiduciary alignment from their vendors.If you want to know where the smart money is moving in employer healthcare, and why the "BUCA" carriers should be worried, this episode is a must-listen.Thank you to our 2026 sponsors!ParetoHealth: ParetoHealth empowers midsize employers with a long-term solution to reduce volatility and lower overall health benefits costs.

If your ADHD brain struggles with procrastination, or you often find yourself thinking, "Why can't I just do this thing?!" episode 344 is for you. We often think "getting started" is one simple action. But for the ADHD brain, task initiation is actually a complex chain of 5-6 distinct steps, each of which demand our executive functions. When we collapse these steps all into one, we miss the nuance of where the breakdown happens and we default to shame instead of solutions. In this episode, we're taking apart the "I'm just a procrastinator" narrative. You'll learn how to identify which of the 6 stages is actually blocking you from starting and find one small, specific way to make it remove the friction and take the next step. In episode 344, you will discover: The 6 hidden layers of task initiation (and why 'just doing it' is biologically harder for us). How to pinpoint exactly which step has you stuck. One specific micro-step to remove the friction from the step that's holding you back. Work With Me:

On this deeply moving and transformative episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, host Wize El Jefe welcomes world-renowned life coach, best-selling author, and two-time Emmy winner Rhonda Britten . Widely considered one of the leading experts on fear, Rhonda shares her extraordinary story and unpacks her unique wisdom on healing trauma, mastering fear, and reclaiming self-worth. This conversation – heartfelt and honest – is not just about understanding fear, but about finding freedom from its grip. A Brave Beginning: Trauma, Grief, and the Split Self The episode opens with Wize El Jefe setting the stage, introducing Rhonda with well-earned accolades, and preparing listeners for a deep dive into the nature of fear and personal transformation. Rhonda's story begins with a tragic event that shaped her life forever: as a 14-year-old, she was the sole witness to her father's murder of her mother followed by his suicide. This unimaginable trauma led Rhonda to live in a state of guilt and shame for decades, feeling as though happiness was permanently off the table because she “did nothing heroic.” She describes splitting into two selves—the “Outside Rhonda,” who appeared fine and accomplished, and the “Inside Rhonda,” burdened with pain. Despite external success as a straight-A student, internally Rhonda wrestled with addiction and suicidal ideation. She candidly shares her struggle: three suicide attempts, alcohol abuse, and countless workshops and therapy sessions in search of a way out. Ultimately, a humble approach—giving herself gold stars for any tiny positive action—provided her a sense of hope and the realization that she could change. This process marked the beginning of her journey to truly understanding and mastering fear. Fear: What It Is, What It Isn't, and How It Operates Throughout the episode, Rhonda challenges the common misconceptions about fear. She emphasizes that thinking, while not inherently bad, becomes problematic when driven by fear, as it keeps people stuck in their minds, ruminating and replaying the same worries over and over. One of her central messages is: “There's nothing wrong with you, it's just fear.” If this idea could pierce every listener's heart, she believes compassion and courage would naturally emerge. Rhonda explains her groundbreaking model—the “Wheel of Fear” and the “Wheel of Freedom.” She describes fear as a four-part mechanism that is hardwired into us, intended to keep us safe. However, what is safe can also be small, familiar, and ultimately limiting. The Wheel of Fear is activated as we move into the unknown, uncertainty, or risk, leading to responses like procrastination, people-pleasing, perfectionism, resentment, bitterness, and more. She introduces a quiz she created to help identify each person's “core trigger” that drives their specific fear responses—often something deeper than the common, surface-level fears of rejection or failure. One of the episode's powerful moments is Rhonda's quiz: she lists a series of fear responses and asks listeners to honestly admit how many they relate to. The vast majority nod their heads to over 90% of them, revealing the pervasive, often unseen impact of fear on day-to-day living. She encourages reframing these behaviors as “fear responses” rather than personal flaws, creating space for change: “Just relabeling them, reframing them, naming them properly will start creating space between you and it…” This shift opens up new possibilities for healing and freedom. Vulnerability, Shame, and Healing The conversation takes an intimate turn as Wize El Jefe shares his own story of loss—his wife's passing, followed by the loss of his mother, father, brothers, and others in close succession. He speaks about years of anger, guilt, and feeling punished by life, and how self-development books introduced by his wife laid the groundwork for his eventual healing. Rhonda responds with empathy, acknowledging how admitting guilt or shame, as Wize El Jefe does for the first time publicly, is a heroic act that heals the soul: “Every time we admit something, we heal. Every time we transcend our shame…that is what heals trauma.” Both speakers reflect on the importance of honest, vulnerable self-expression and the courage it takes to move through pain, process feelings, and eventually reclaim happiness. Rhonda recalls keeping her trauma a secret for years, constructing impenetrable walls to protect herself but also preventing her from receiving love and help. She highlights how keeping secrets and repressing shame hold people back from true self-fulfillment. The act of telling the truth, especially to someone trustworthy and without judgment, is identified as a central step toward healing. Transformation: Choosing Who You Want to Be Rhonda and Wize El Jefe discuss the power of choice in personal transformation. Rhonda explains that, for years, she felt constrained by her past, unable to imagine that she could choose who she wanted to be. Only after several years of sobriety did she fully grasp the concept: “With every choice I make, I'm deciding who I'm going to be.” This insight is revolutionary, providing a path for listeners to move from victimhood or being defined by trauma into empowered authors of their lives. This theme resonates in Wize El Jefe's account of launching the podcast. He describes how fear and self-doubt (“Who's going to want to listen to you? You sound horrible.”) held him back for years. Ultimately, pressing record and releasing his first episode became a symbolic act of confronting fear and stepping into his potential. The growth since then—from one episode a month to building a platform that enables vulnerability and connection—is testament to the courage embedded in action. The Dark Night of the Soul: A Gateway to Growth Rhonda explains the spiritual concept of the “dark night of the soul” through her own experience: even at the peak of her career, winning an Emmy, she found herself emotionally and physically depleted. In a “dark night,” the world seems to pull the rug out from under you, all former beliefs and identities crumble, and you must confront the truth of who you are without familiar supports. Rhonda describes how her own journey through this period—marked by the need for companionship, self-compassion, and honesty even in her vulnerability—ultimately made her a softer, more loving person. She emphasizes that the dark night is not “stuckness,” but part of transformation, a tunnel one must pass through to reach new levels of soul growth. Fearlessness in Everyday Life A recurring question is what “true fearlessness” looks like in daily life. Rhonda offers a simple but profound answer: taking action aligned with one's authentic self, even when it feels terrifying, is the essence of fearlessness. She praises Wize El Jefe's own act of expressing guilt and vulnerability as true bravery. Fearlessness does not mean absence of fear, but the willingness to be honest, to feel, and to move forward anyway. Whether pressing record on a podcast, admitting a painful truth, or simply facing the day, these are all acts of courageous living. The episode reinforces the importance of self-compassion and gentle honesty. Rhonda warns against beating oneself up, noting that shame and self-criticism only solidify fear's grip. Instead, labeling behaviors as fear responses and examining the core trigger provides a route out of stagnation and into freedom. She encourages listeners to take her quiz at fearlessliving.org/quiz, which offers tangible insight into individual fears and begins the process of mastering them. Practical Wisdom and Action Steps For listeners who feel “stuck” but cannot name the cause, Rhonda advises reframing the experience: rather than repeating “I'm stuck,” try “I'm afraid.” Identifying fear responses and tracking them with honesty disrupts self-blame and invites healing. She urges listeners to see stuckness not as failure but as part of a tunnel or passage in life's journey, a necessary stage for transformation. It's all about perspective—are you viewing your life through the “wheel of fear” or the “wheel of freedom”? This choice shapes everything. The Power of Compassion, Connection, and Service The episode closes with recognition of the incredible growth both Rhonda and Wize El Jefe have experienced by facing fear, trauma, and loss head-on. The podcast itself becomes a vehicle for shared healing, connection, and compassion. Wize El Jefe expresses gratitude for his supportive family and for the opportunity to build real relationships and share his story, echoing Rhonda's call for vulnerability and honesty. Rhonda's final message is as powerful as it is liberating: “Remember what I said earlier — there's nothing wrong with you. It's just fear.” She urges everyone to visit fearlessliving.org for more resources and to take her transformative quiz, beginning the journey toward living the life their soul intended. Final Thoughts: This episode is a must-listen for anyone burdened by fear, shame, grief, or feeling stuck. Through Rhonda's story and wisdom, and Wize El Jefe's honest reflections, listeners are given a roadmap for understanding and transcending fear—one gold star, one act of courage at a time. The insights here are practical, compassionate, and empowering: the journey to healing and self-realization starts with naming fear, reframing shame, and choosing authenticity. Both guest and host demonstrate that vulnerability in action is the ultimate form of fearlessness. Whether you're coping with trauma, seeking freedom from self-doubt, or simply wanting to live more fully, the episode offers hope, tools, and inspiration. Share it with someone who needs to hear they're not alone—and remind them that what appears as “stuckness” may be their first step on the path to fearless living.

It's not the setback that's holding you back — it's the story you keep telling about it. Every level up requires a new version of you. And that new version cannot operate from the same old narrative. In this episode of PivotMe, April dives into the power of internal storytelling — the beliefs, assumptions, and fear-based scripts that quietly dictate your decisions. She explains why fear of failure, criticism, and "playing small" aren't random behaviors… they're rooted in the story you've attached to past experiences. If you want to scale your business, grow your leadership, or become the best version of yourself, you must first understand — and rewrite — the narrative running in the background. This episode walks you through four practical steps to change your story, stack evidence for a stronger belief, and build momentum toward a bigger future. In This Episode You Will Learn: Why clarity around your story is the first step to changing it How your current story shapes your identity and future The importance of listening to your story without judgment Identifying the catalysts that trigger limiting beliefs How to consciously choose and practice a more empowering narrative The power of stacking evidence to reinforce your new story Why accountability accelerates belief change Key Quotes "It is not the thing that matters; it's the story we tell ourselves about the thing that matters the most." – April "We all have our thing; we just have to learn how to work with our thing to leverage it for the most progress and fulfillment in our lives." – April "If you're someone who wants to keep leveling up, you've got to know your stories and know how to rewrite those narratives so they empower you, not disempower you." – April Pivot Point Takeaway You cannot outgrow a story you refuse to examine. Awareness gives you power. Choice gives you momentum. Practice makes it your new identity. ---------------- Ready to take this work beyond the podcast?

How to Master 1031 Exchanges for Hunting Land | 100% Wild Podcast Ep. 463 In the fourth and final podcast of our Cultivating Value series, Matt Drury and Tim Kjellsvik sit down with Joe Dierker, owner of First Harvest Land Exchange, to demystify the most powerful financial tool for landowners: the 1031 Exchange. While Episode One touched on financing, this episode dives deep into the high-stakes world of tax deferral strategies and building long-term wealth through real estate. Joe explains the "make or break" mechanics of using a Qualified Intermediary (QI) to avoid the "constructive receipt" of funds, which can instantly blow up your exchange and trigger a massive tax bill. Whether you are a first-time flipper or looking to secure a "forever farm" legacy, you will learn the critical differences between long-term capital gains, short-term marginal rates, and how the step-up in basis can benefit your heirs. The conversation pulls back the curtain on the rigid timelines that govern these deals, including the 45-day identification window and the 180-day completion deadline. Joe reveals expert tips on the Three-Property Rule, why you must exchange for equal or greater value and equity, and how "mortgage boot" can lead to unexpected tax liabilities. We also tackle complex scenarios like reverse 1031 exchanges, carving out primary residences under Section 121, and navigating the "Ozarks Condo" trap. This series finale provides the ultimate masterclass in financial literacy for the modern hunter and land investor. 00:00:00 – Intro to the podcast 00:04:00 – What is a 1031 Exchange?
