What does it really mean to belong—when your life has been shaped by many cultures, many homes, and many versions of yourself? How do you stay soft, feminine, and emotionally open in a world that constantly demands armor? And what if leaning fully into who you are is the most powerful thing you could ever do? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with singer, songwriter, and global soul Naïka for a deeply intimate conversation about identity, femininity, creativity, and self-trust. From growing up across continents to building a music career rooted in emotional honesty, Naïka opens up about what it truly takes to stay connected to yourself while navigating success, visibility, and personal evolution. Together, they explore what it means to feel “in between” cultures—and how that experience can become a superpower rather than a wound. Naïka shares how music became her safe place for expression, why femininity is something to be nurtured and reclaimed, and how confidence is built through learning to have your own back. From navigating public perception, creative blocks, and anxiety, to redefining success on your own terms, this episode is a raw, soulful reminder that vulnerability is not weakness—it’s artistry. In this episode, you’ll learn: How growing up across cultures shapes identity, belonging, and creativity Why feeling “in between” can actually make you more adaptable, open, and powerful How Naïka stays grounded while navigating fame, opinions, and online judgment What confidence really comes from—and why self-trust changes everything How femininity can be reclaimed as strength, softness, sensuality, and freedom Why music became Naïka’s safest space for emotional expression How to move through anxiety by connecting with your inner child What success looks like beyond numbers, accolades, and validation Why perseverance, discernment, and staying a student are essential life lessons How love, art, and vulnerability can bring people together across every divide This episode is a reminder that you don’t have to fit into one box to belong. You are allowed to be layered. You are allowed to be emotional. You are allowed to be powerful and soft. And most importantly—you are allowed to take up space exactly as you are.

AJ and Johnny sit down with neuroscientist Emily Falk to explore why our goals so often collapse after January, and what the brain is actually optimizing for when we make decisions. Emily explains how the brain's value system prioritizes the present self over future goals, why environment beats willpower, and how identity, social influence, and habit systems quietly shape what we do every day. From New Year's resolutions to loneliness, leadership, and purpose, this episode reveals how to design choices that stick by working with the brain instead of against it. 00:00 – Why resolutions fail after January05:00 – The brain's value calculator and present bias10:00 – Identity, purpose, and what we think is “fixed”15:00 – How social influence shapes what we value20:00 – Loneliness, power, and perspective loss25:00 – Designing environments that change behavior A Word From Our Sponsors Stop being over looked and unlock your X-Factor today at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠unlockyourxfactor.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  The very qualities that make you exceptional in your field are working against you socially.  Visit the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠artofcharm.com/intel ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠for a social intelligence assessment and discover exactly what's holding you back.

In this episode, Duane speaks with Early Brunner, the founder of Recovery Demystified. Early shares their powerful journey of navigating addiction as a queer, neurodivergent (autistic) person growing up in a small town. They discuss why traditional recovery models like AA can feel alienating for marginalized groups and how science-based "Quit Lit," neuroscience, and self-compassion provided the path to lasting sobriety.Key Topics & Chapters[00:03] Introduction to Early Brunner Early introduces their background: growing up undiagnosed autistic in 90s Wisconsin, dealing with profound social rejection, and discovering substances at age 10 as a way to find social connection.[04:30] The 13-Year Struggle Early discusses the "vicious cycle" of trying to quit using willpower alone. They share the shame of failed attempts and the realization that the substances that once provided relief were now the primary source of their crippling anxiety.[14:05] The Turning Point: Beyond Willpower The shift began when Early found science-based resources like This Naked Mind by Annie Grace. Understanding the neuroscience of addiction helped them realize they weren't "broken" or "powerless," but rather dealing with a brain-based challenge that could be repaired.[23:34] The Birth of Recovery Demystified After working as an EMT and seeing the failures of the traditional medical system, Early felt called to create a space specifically for those with "complex identities"—queer and neurodivergent folks who face significantly higher rates of addiction due to systemic trauma.[33:44] Neurodivergence and Addiction A deep dive into why ADHD and Autistic individuals are more prone to substance use, focusing on lower baseline dopamine levels, sensory overload, and the "mashing of the dopamine button" to cope with a world not built for them.[36:10] Destigmatizing the Story Early explains the importance of looking at the "whole person," including their childhood (ACEs score), rather than just their worst moments in active addiction. Quotes"Willpower is like a muscle, and muscles get tired over time... I think you need an ounce of willpower and about 25 pounds of everything else." — Early Brunner"One size fits all is not real. It's not real for baseball caps, and it's not real for recovery plans." — Early Brunner"The first step was asking: 'What would someone who loves themself do?'" — Early BrunnerResources MentionedBook: This Naked Mind by Annie GracePodcast: Recovery ElevatorConcept: ACEs Score (Adverse Childhood Experiences)Connect with Early BrunnerWebsite: recoverydemystified.comPodcast: Recovery DemystifiedSocial Media: @recoverydemystified (Instagram/Substack)Email: info@recoverydemystified.comNovusMindfulLife.comEpisode CreditsIf you like this podcast and are thinking of creating your own, consider talking to my producer, Emerald City Productions.

Daily World Living from our heavenly identity invites believers to shift from striving to become someone in Christ to confidently living from who they already are in him. Rooted in Colossians 3:1-3, the message emphasizes that our true identity is established through resurrection with Christ, not through effort, performance, or earning. Apostle Paul reminds us that because we have been raised with Christ, our focus and mindset are to be set on heavenly realities rather than earthly distractions. Our old life has died, and our true life is now hidden securely with Christ in God.  __________ Colossians 3:1–3 ESV, 2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV, Matthew 6:33 ESV, Romans 12:2 ESV, Galatians 2:20 ESV, Psalm 91:1 ESV, Philippians 3:20 ESV __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________

Suella Braverman pulls no punches as she takes aim at the woke ideologies she believes are fracturing British society and the institutional failures hampering the nation's borders.  From the frontlines of the culture war to the inner workings of Westminster, Suella delivers a defiant defence of national sovereignty and conservative values, warning that the United Kingdom stands at a critical crossroads… BEST MOMENTS "We need to stop being afraid of our own shadow and start standing up for the silent majority who are fed up with being told their values are outdated." "The British people didn't vote for open borders or a justice system that favors the criminal over the victim; they voted for control, and it's time we finally delivered it." "If we don't defeat the 'woke' virus that has infected our institutions, we risk losing the very essence of what it means to be British."

This conversation shines a light on the hidden emotional abuse experienced by adult children of narcissistic parents—especially within collectivist, immigrant, and African cultures, where family loyalty is often prioritized over individual mental health and emotional safety. Drawing from clinical expertise and lived experience, Agatha Peters breaks down what narcissistic personality disorder really is (and what it is not), how narcissistic parents cause long-term psychological harm, and why cultural expectations can make healing feel nearly impossible. Together, Dr. Foojan and Agatha explore how survivors can begin healing without completely abandoning their culture, identity, or family ties. If you struggle with people-pleasing, guilt, chronic self-doubt, emotional manipulation, or identity loss, this episode offers clarity, validation, and real therapeutic guidance. ⏱️ Clickable Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction & episode overview 01:19 – Meet Agatha Peters: psychotherapist, author, and survivor 03:00 – What narcissistic personality disorder really is (clinical perspective) 06:24 – Narcissistic parents vs. “self-centered” behavior 07:45 – Emotional abuse, gaslighting, and walking on eggshells 09:28 – Why children blame themselves and perform for approval 10:19 – Why narcissistic parents don't seek therapy or change 10:22 – Agatha's personal journey growing up with a narcissistic parent 12:10 – The first step to healing: accepting you can't change them 13:20 – Gaslighting, reality confusion, and the power of journaling 14:41 – Living someone else's life & never being “good enough” 15:58 – Separating your identity from your parent 16:14 – Cultural authoritarian parenting vs. narcissistic abuse 17:27 – Jealousy, competition, and never meeting expectations 18:12 – Perfectionism, achievement, and internalized shame 18:51 – About the book Trapped in Their Script 19:09 – Cultural expectations, loyalty, and immigrant family pressure 20:40 – Is healing possible?

China's president, Xi Jinping, has become the most all-powerful leader of the communist state since Mao, and his grip on the country has been strengthened by technology and China's growing economic and military might. The United States might have belatedly realized it was in a great-powers competition with the People's Republic, but we might still be failing to understand how Chinese people themselves are dealing with—and resisting—their authoritarian government.  Award-winning journalist Emily Feng, author of the new book Let Only Red Flowers Bloom, has documented China's state oppression of those who fail to conform to Xi Jinping's definition of who is “Chinese.” She has profiled nearly two dozen people who are pushing back. They include a Uyghur family, separated as China detains hundreds of thousands of their fellow Uyghurs in camps; human rights lawyers fighting to defend civil liberties in the face of incredible odds; a teacher from Inner Mongolia forced to make hard choices because of his support of his mother tongue; and a Hong Kong fugitive trying to find a new home and live in freedom.  Join us as Feng reveals dramatic human stories of resistance and survival in a country that is increasingly closing itself off to the world—even as it flexes its muscles on the world stage. Feng illustrates what it is like to run against the grain in China, and the myriad ways people are trying to survive, with dignity. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of the Run the Riot Podcast, David sits down with ultrarunner Melanie Mathews for an honest, wide-ranging conversation about grit, setbacks, and what it really takes to stay in the game of ultrarunning. Melanie's running story starts long before ultra racing. Growing up on a Nebraska farm, she learned hard work, discipline, and toughness early—qualities that later carried her from road races to trail running and into ultra racing. She shares how she transitioned from marathons like the Little Rock Marathon to rugged mountain events, her early mistakes in trail racing, and why the ultrarunning community hooked her for good. The conversation goes deeper as Melanie opens up about DNFs, injury, grief, and seasons when running was taken away entirely. From her first 100-mile attempts to finishing the Love It 100, Melanie reflects on mental toughness, stubborn determination, and the lessons that only ultra racing can teach. She also talks about hormone health, depression, and the identity struggle many ultrarunners face when they can't train or race the way they want to. Now heavily involved in volunteering and running aid stations, Melanie shares why giving back to the trail community matters so much—and how being on both sides of the race has shaped her perspective as an ultrarunner. This episode is packed with perspective for anyone chasing big goals in ultrarunning, navigating setbacks, or simply trying to stay grateful for the miles they get to run.

In this deeply reflective and expansive conversation, Darin sits down with poet, speaker, and consciousness explorer Adam Roa for a raw dialogue on creativity, stillness, identity, and the courage it takes to live from integrity instead of performance. From viral art and the pressure of platforms to darkness retreats, emotional sovereignty, and redefining success, this episode explores what it really means to listen inwardly in a world addicted to noise. This is not a conversation about answers. It's a conversation about asking better questions and trusting the quiet moments where truth lives.     What You'll Learn in This Episode How art and creativity act as accelerators for human consciousness Why stepping back from visibility can be an act of integrity, not avoidance The emotional cost of constant output and public expectation What happens when identity dissolves and certainty disappears Why stillness, darkness, and solitude reveal what discipline cannot How to rebuild meaning when old belief systems fall apart The difference between inspired expression and

Text Me!Quitting alcohol changes more than your habits; it changes how you see yourself.In episode 262 of the Sober Vibes Podcast, I explore one of the most overlooked parts of sobriety: identity.

In this episode of the Man Within Podcast, Sathiya Sam reflects on his ten-year journey of freedom from pornography, sharing ten hard-earned lessons that he wishes he had understood sooner. He emphasizes that willpower is overrated and that true freedom is built before temptation arises. Sathiya discusses how pornography was merely a symptom of deeper issues, highlighting the importance of addressing root causes rather than just the behavior itself. He also stresses that spiritual disciplines alone are not sufficient for recovery; they must be complemented by practical systems and skills. Throughout the episode, he shares insights on the significance of community, accountability, and the need for a stable environment to foster long-term recovery.  

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Steve Jaffe, author of The Layoff Journey: From Dismissal to Discovery. Steve has been laid off four times over the course of his career, and those experiences shaped a thoughtful, practical framework for navigating the emotional and professional aftermath of job loss. Andy and Steve explore why layoffs feel so personal even when we are told they are not, how identity often gets tangled up with job titles, and why the emotional response to a layoff closely mirrors the stages of grief. Steve explains why those stages are not linear, what denial, pain, and negotiation really look like in practice, and why trying to rush straight to acceptance can backfire. You will also hear practical advice for leaders who must conduct layoffs, as well as guidance for professionals who worry they might be laid off in the future. From preserving dignity in difficult conversations to preparing financially, emotionally, and professionally before uncertainty hits, this discussion offers insight for both sides of the table. If you are navigating uncertainty, supporting others through change, or simply want to be better prepared for whatever comes next, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "I wanted to give people a roadmap to process their layoff and the grief of their layoff in months rather than years." "One of the things that makes losing a job difficult is we tie our identity up in what we do." "And then in that period, before you've landed your next job, you're in this messy middle of Who am I?" "Define yourself not by what you do, but by who you are and what you bring to the table." "I've seen people be named Employee of the Year in January, and by June they're getting laid off." "Layoffs don't measure your worth. They measure a company's priorities." "The stages of grief are not linear. You can feel all of them in one day." "Your job title is not who you are." "Acceptance can become a way to skip discomfort instead of dealing with loss." "If you don't process the grief, it shows up later as baggage." "Dignity matters in the first minutes of a layoff conversation." "You want to build your network before you need it." "The person you were before a layoff will not be the same person after." Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:45 Start of Interview 02:00 From First Layoff to Fourth: Taking It Personally 02:50 How the Layoff Process Has Changed Over Time 06:52 The Messy Middle Between Job Loss and What's Next 10:40 Why the Stages of Grief Apply to Layoffs 14:07 What Denial Looked Like in Steve's Experience 17:19 Balancing Emotional Honesty and Professional Reputation 22:08 The Quote That Opens the Book 23:00 Can You Jump to Acceptance Too Quickly? 24:58 When Past Layoffs Create Baggage at the Next Job 26:42 Advice for Leaders Who Have to Do Layoffs 28:55 Handling Performance-Based Separations with Integrity 30:40 How to Prepare Now If You Worry About Being Laid Off 32:46 End of Interview 33:33 Andy Comments After the Interview 37:37 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about Steve and his work at TheSteveJaffe.com.

Sunday Service (2/1/26) // Revelation 13: 11-14 (ESV) // The Second Beast // 11 Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon. 12 It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence,[a] and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed. 13 It performs great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in front of people, 14 and by the signs that it is allowed to work in the presence of[b] the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth, telling them to make an image for the beast that was wounded by the sword and yet lived.Footnotesa.

Pastor Daniel Batarseh outlines three main points concerning this figure: his identity, his mission, and his authority (4:06-4:45).Here's a breakdown of the key points:Identity of the Second Beast (4:47-18:45):The second beast rises "out of the earth" (5:58-6:01), differentiating him from the first beast who came from the sea. This suggests a worldly origin, rather than a divine one (9:15-10:06).He is described as having "two horns like a lamb" but speaking "like a dragon" (10:30-10:35). This signifies an outward appearance of innocence and harmlessness (11:18-11:23) but an underlying demonic influence, as his words reveal his true, Satanic nature (12:28-12:36, 17:38-17:43).The pastor emphasizes the importance of discerning false teachers by evaluating the content of their message against God's word, rather than their appearance, charisma, or supposed miracles (16:46-17:15).Mission of the Second Beast (23:48-36:15):The primary mission of the false prophet is to compel the inhabitants of the earth to worship the first beast, the Antichrist (27:10-27:31).This false prophet completes a "satanic trinity," mimicking the Holy Spirit's role by directing worship towards the Antichrist, who is presented as a false Christ (28:15-29:17, 30:21-30:31).He will leverage the Antichrist's apparent resurrection from a mortal wound (30:42-31:11) to convince people of the Antichrist's divinity and worthiness of worship (31:13-31:28).This ultimately culminates in a one-world religion focused on the Antichrist, alongside the one-world government (31:51-32:11). The pastor notes humanity's innate desire to worship, which can be misdirected towards idols (33:16-35:19).Authority of the Second Beast (36:29-45:10):The false prophet will perform "great signs," including making fire come down from heaven (37:12-37:17), which are genuine miracles.These powerful miracles are allowed by God as an act of judgment upon those who

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav is joined by Dr. Steven Dayan, Dr. Sabrina Fabi, and Dr. Nathan LeBrasseur—key advisory voices behind AMWC Americas—for an inside look at why this meeting has become one of the most influential platforms shaping modern aesthetic medicine.As an official media partner, Skin Anarchy and Dr. Ekta are part of the global conversations unfolding at AMWC Americas—conversations that go far beyond injectables to explore longevity science, systems-based care, and how real-world clinical insight travels across borders. What makes this meeting different, the guests explain, is its truly international lens. From early-career clinicians to seasoned experts, the meeting prioritizes anatomy, physiology, and safety—most notably through its standing-room-only live cadaver dissection sessions. For many providers, this hands-on anatomical education is both rare and transformative, refining technique and elevating patient outcomes.A central theme throughout the conversation is the convergence of aesthetics and longevity. Rather than focusing solely on correction, AMWC Americas increasingly addresses hormones, peptides, nutrition, inflammation, and metabolic health—recognizing that durable aesthetic results depend on biological resilience, not isolated procedures.Listen in to hear why AMWC Americas isn't just a conference—it's a benchmark for where the field is headed.Attend AMWC AmericasRegister for AMWC Americas: use code EKTA for 20% off registrationAt AMWC, make sure to join the incredible presentations scheduled by Dr. Nathan LeBrasseur, Dr. Steven Dayan, Dr. Sabrina Fabi, and Dr. Ekta Yadav!Dr. Nathan LeBrasseur:Welcome Keynote Address: Aging: Can We Intervene?

Hopefully not, but if you're like 79% of Americans you're living paycheck to paycheck. Ironically, money is easy to make and there are a million ways to make a million dollars yet most struggle. In this episode I touch briefly on the mental aspect of money, and I make it brief because Episode 9 clearly lays out how to attract money and how to stop repelling it. In this episode I go over some of the earlier stuff again, and I expand a little on things you can do in behavior that will attract more money into your life. In this episode I discuss:[16:42] How small shifts in behavior can attract more money[19:27] Why carrying $100 in your pocket can up your money consciousness[23:11] How trusting the universe 10% opened the money flood gates for meAnd, to the question of the week, how to reprogram your money identity. HINT: I've suggested this before but you and others may have missed it so I make reference to it in this episode.

I break down why self-worth isn't a motivation problem and why trying to “think” your way into confidence rarely works. I explain how your identity is built from predictable behavioral patterns and how your nervous system resists change that feels unfamiliar or threatening. We dive into the biology behind self-worth, including dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine, and how they shape drive, discipline, and resilience. Finally, I lay out practical steps you can use to rebuild self-worth through action, repetition, and new patterns.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 - Why Self-Worth Isn't a Motivation Problem01:07 - Identity as Predictable Patterns02:37 - The Rider and the Elephant03:56 - Why the Brain Rejects Change05:16 - Self-Worth as a Felt Experience06:59 - Dopamine and Direction07:12 - Serotonin and Self-Control08:21 - Norepinephrine and Resilience09:28 - Why Change Feels Like Death11:07 - Practical Steps to Rebuild Self-Worth14:56 - Self-Worth Is Built Through Action***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

You sound great on Sunday, but is your team actually healthy? You've probably felt it before. Sunday afternoon hits and instead of feeling energized, you're frustrated. Something didn't go the way you planned. Someone didn't show up prepared. A transition fell apart. And now you can't stop replaying it. Sunday bleeds into Monday. Monday into Tuesday. One rough service and your whole week feels off. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. After 20+ years of leading worship, our new podcast host Keith Elgin hit that same wall. And what he discovered on the other side completely transformed how he leads, how he builds teams, and how he thinks about worship ministry. In this episode, Keith shares what finally broke the cycle for him, the framework he now uses to build healthy teams, and the hard lessons he learned so you don't have to. If you've ever: • Gone home Sunday afternoon replaying every mistake • Wondered why your team sounds tight but feels disconnected • Struggled with burnout, frustration, or questioned whether you're even cut out for this This conversation will meet you exactly where you are. Keith isn't sharing theory. He's sharing what he learned in the trenches, leading real teams, making real mistakes, and finding a better way forward. This is the conversation every worship leader needs to hear. ABOUT KEITH ELGIN Keith Elgin is a worship pastor, songwriter, and coach with over 20 years of ministry experience.

Award-winning journalist, activist, poll worker, and former attorney Anjali Enjeti discusses her new book, Ballot, which considers the real and metaphorical role that ballots play in our democracy. Co-hosts Whitney Terrell and Jennifer Maritza McCauley (in her first episode joining the co-host rotation) talk to Enjeti about her childhood encounters with ballots, the history of ballots in America, and the problems she encountered with Republican-installed Dominion voting machines in Fulton County, Georgia, where she was an election worker during the 2020 presidential race. She debunks the false claims of election fraud in Fulton County during that election and discusses the Trump Administration's recent seizure of 700 boxes of 2020 ballots from Fulton County, what those ballots represent, and whether or not the administration might try to alter them.

In traditional Trinitarian language, there are three persons in the one "being/essence" of God (as expressed in the Greek noun "ousia"). However, "ousia" does not mean "essence" or "being" in the New Testament, nor in the Septuagint. This week's episode examines how the meaning of "ousia" evolved over time to justify the post-biblical doctrine of a tri-personal God.

Break Free & Reclaim Your WorthAre you letting other people's opinions define who you are? In this eye-opening episode of Quality Queen Control, Asha Christina exposes the validation trap.How chasing approval, likes, praise, and external affirmation quietly becomes your identity, eroding your confidence, peace, and God-given purpose.Drawing from psychology, faith-based truth, and real-talk stories, Asha unpacks why we fall into people-pleasing, codependency, and self-worth tied to others' approval.Learn to spot the signs, heal the root (rejection wounds, low self-concept, social media traps), and build unshakeable self-validation rooted in who God says you are not what the world thinks.This is your wake-up call to stop performing for approval, reclaim your authentic identity, raise your standards, and step into the high-value, confident queen era you're meant for.No more shrinking to fit in it's time to shine from inner validation!

"Who you are when you have to make an emotionally uncomfortable decision says everything about how quickly you will get results." In this episode, Heather shares a grounded, no-bypass conversation about decision-making when your nervous system is activated, clarity feels unavailable, and quitting would be easier than staying in it. She unpacks why decision fatigue isn't about doing too much, but about avoiding the decisions that actually matter, how unmade choices quietly turn into identity-level habits, and why real momentum is built by staying in motion even when outcomes, other people, or next steps are uncomfortable and uncertain. This episode will help you stop circling the same choices, outsourcing your power to external conditions, or spiritually rationalizing why now isn't the time, because success is something we all have to consciously choose in each moment. What to listen for: ✨ Why decision fatigue shows up and what it takes to persevere ✨ The real reason you're not seeing results and where you need to invest more time ✨ Working through the messy middle when your nervous system gets dysregulated "Lock in, figure it out, and go through this emotional discomfort. Are you committing to this journey and the result that you want, or are you going to run away from it?" ✨ Using repetition to build the muscle of being all in and figuring shit out ✨ How to stay in motion when you don't know what decision someone else will make ✨ Being successful and achieving your goals is a decision, and it needs to come from within "People are more addicted to their external environment than their internal environment. And the reality is, when you're maneuvering your emotional energy to your external environment versus your internal environment, you'll always feel out of control." ✨ How we use spiritual bypassing to avoid making uncomfortable decisions ✨ Decision fatigue is rooted in our avoidance of making decisions in real time ✨ No matter what your faith is, you still need to act from self-trust and discernment "When you choose not to make a decision in real time, you pay the natural consequence of unmade decisions. And so oftentimes, a lot of our fatigue, which is a huge energy leak and a huge time suck, is literally coming from unmade decisions." ✨ Why decisions that are a year old are now identity-based habits ✨ You can change your personality when you change your personal reality ✨ How to start thinking about decision-making differently and more productively *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me for a one-on-one Time & Energy Audit, a focused session designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life. We'll pinpoint your biggest time + energy leaks, identify the top areas to focus on for quick momentum, and map out exactly what to let go of so you can reclaim your energy, your time, and your joy.

Episode 5115: Unregulated Immigration Strips A Country Of Identity

The Money Mindset Shift Every Woman Entrepreneur Needs There are more men named John running Fortune 500 companies than there are women. Total. Let that sink in for a second. That's just one of the things Vivian Tu, aka Your Rich BFF, dropped in this episode that made me go, wait, what? She went from being told she was "too girly for Wall Street" to becoming one of the most trusted voices in personal finance. And the way she breaks down money will make you rethink everything you thought you knew. We get into why women who are crushing it in business still let their money sit in a savings account earning 0.39%, the simple equation that tells you whether something is actually worth buying, why women fight over 2% of the pie when there's 98% sitting right there, and how to stop working around the clock and let your money do the work instead. Vivian also gets real about running her business at a sprint pace for years and what she's doing to finally build something sustainable. This is the money conversation I wish I had ten years ago. CHAPTERS: 00:00 "Money Truths with Amy Porterfield" 05:39 "Growing Wealth and Money Mindset" 13:42 "Leaving Wall Street and Identity" 19:05 Work Ethic and Efficiency 22:26 "Scaling Up: Hiring Strategically" 28:22 "Leveraging Technology and Lessons" 33:04 "Investing: Money Works for You" 41:43 Redefining Richness and Values 46:21 Why Women Struggle to Celebrate Success 51:56 "Focus on Profitable Ventures" 56:26 "Get Rich, Stay Rich Framework" 01:01:02 "Mastering Life's Biggest Finances" HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Separate Your Business and Personal Finances – As soon as you start making real money, set up a business entity that's fully separate from you. Your dry cleaning bill should not be on your business credit card. This protects you and sets you up to scale. 2️⃣ Stop Letting Your Money Sit in a Savings Account – A regular savings account earns you almost nothing. Once you have your emergency fund set, your money should be working for you through investments. Your labor earns you capital. Your capital makes you rich. 3️⃣ Value Purchases in Time, Not Dollars – Before you buy something, divide the cost by your hourly take-home pay. That $100 pair of yoga pants might cost you five hours of work. Is it worth it? This simple equation helps you spend strategically and without guilt.
