Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performance without alignment leads to burnout and emotional exhaustion. This episode shows you how identity shifts happen in the body, not the mind — and how to live from truth instead of performance. A gentle, embodied recalibration.If you've ever wondered why you continue showing up as the strong one — even when you're tired, even when you know better, even when your spirit is asking for something gentler — this episode is for you.This week, we've been uncovering the identity story beneath high performance: the role you learned to play in order to be safe, chosen, or loved. Today, we move from awareness to embodiment.Because identity does not shift through insight alone. Insight is the invitation. Embodiment is the acceptance.Your nervous system has been loyal to the identity that once protected you. It isn't resisting growth — it's guarding belonging. This is why performance patterns feel so automatic, even when they no longer fit.In this episode, we explore:• Why your body keeps choosing the familiar (even when it's draining) • How safety — not self-discipline — is what allows identity to shift • The real marker of transformation: staying with yourself in the moment you would have abandoned yourself • How to live from your truest identity now, without collapsing your life or losing your excellenceThis is not mindset work or behavior management. This is Identity-Level Recalibration — the root-level shift that makes every other tool effective again.Today's Micro RecalibrationWhen you feel yourself slipping into performance mode, pause for one breath. Hand to ribs or abdomen. Ask gently: “Am I choosing from fear or from truth?” Don't fix. Don't correct. Just notice. Noticing is becoming.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Share a commentGrace doesn't wait for perfect conditions; it reaches the soul right where life feels unmoved. We close our journey through Philippians by tracing how Paul's final lines pull the whole letter into focus: greet every saint, honor the family of faith, and rest in the grace that Christ applies to the spirit, not the circumstances. Along the way, we dismantle the myth of sainthood as a status for a rare few and recover the New Testament vision—saints are all believers set apart in Christ, called, known, and needed.We walk through Paul's four circles of greeting: the local church in Philippi, the brothers beside him, the wider community of believers in Rome, and the surprising believers within Caesar's household. Each circle reveals something vital about a gospel-shaped community. Leaders speak dignity to every member. Brothers and sisters belong to each other because they belong to Christ. Bridges get built even when disappointment lingers. And the gospel advances in unlikely places, reminding us that grace is not fragile; it flourishes under pressure.Throughout the conversation, we keep returning to the center—Jesus Christ. Identity, joy, contentment, and perseverance are not self-manufactured; they are rooted in union with Him. That means we don't pray on the strength of a good week, and we don't serve on the basis of a flawless record. We live under a lavish downpour of unmerited favor, enough for each trial and every day until faith becomes sight. If you've ever wondered whether you're worthy to be used by God, or if your past disqualifies you from hope, this message invites you to breathe again: you are a saint by calling, a sibling in a family, and a witness to grace at work.If this encouraged you, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review to help others discover these teachings.The first of Stephen's two volumes set through the Book of Revelation is now available. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQ3XCJMYSupport the showStephen's latest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardback

3rd Corinthians is a second-century Christian document that was written in Paul's name. The work offers a glimpse into the unknown author's thoughts on the creator God, Jesus' birth, and the Holy Spirit, while also detailing the doctrines the author deemed heretical. The resulting portrayal is an overlooked example of biblical unitarianism in the second century.

This week we are not doing the usual Black Friday deal roundup.Instead we are taking a step back and talking honestly about something that affects all of us. GAS. Gear lust. The constant temptation to buy more just because everything is on sale.So today we are doing the opposite of a deal guide.We are talking about what we already have, why Black Friday plays on our insecurities as artists, and how to recognise when a purchase actually solves a real problem versus when it is just another distraction.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:
This episode dissects the "anxious identity" — how beliefs, values and daily habits (like doomscrolling or bingeing) shape who you are and fuel anxiety. I explore the higher self versus the lower self, explain how confronting discomfort rewires the brain, and show how small, challenging actions build competence and emotional regulation. —The Anxiety Recovery Program— https://unpluganxiety.com/my-program/ —1 on 1 Coaching— https://unpluganxiety.com/1-on-1-coaching/ —The Website— https://unpluganxiety.com
Send us a textA quiet Thanksgiving plan turns into a high-stakes HR story: 20-plus fake employees on a real payroll, deepfake executives on urgent video calls, and wire transfers that vanish because the faces on the screen weren't human at all. We pull the thread on ghost workers, AI-powered impersonation, and the ways remote hiring can be gamed, then rebuild a safer, saner system step by step.We walk through the modern fraud playbook—deepfakes that mimic CFOs, ghost payroll profiles collecting salaries, third parties secretly doing the job, and criminal networks using “employees” to launder money or open backdoors to sensitive data. Then we get tactical. Identity verification needs more than an I‑9 snapshot: add live checks, secure video verification, and consistent FaceTime during onboarding; align with IT for least-privilege access, device compliance, and anomaly detection; and implement dual approvals with known-key phrases for any financial movement. Trust becomes a process, not a vibe.Hiring still has to feel human. We take aim at clunky ATS flows that drive away great candidates. Keep applications as quick as placing an online order, avoid duplicate data entry, and use clear timelines and text follow-ups to prevent ghosting on both sides. At the same time, weave in light-touch anti-fraud checks and reference pathways that rely on authentic networks rather than easily faked profiles. The result is a pipeline that respects candidates and protects the business.We close with practical scripts, small cultural habits, and a reminder to teach basic AI literacy at home and at work. When a request feels “off,” it's okay to slow down and verify through a second channel. Layered verification, clear communication, and smarter access design take the drama out of hiring and keep your holidays—and budgets—intact.If this conversation helped, follow the show, share it with your team, and leave a quick review so more HR pros can find it.

On today's episode of RNT Fitness Radio, we're talking about the Messy Middle and the Identity Gap that happens after you lose weight.

In these darkly satirical shorts, Leo X. Robertson skewers the absurdity of modern life through warped futures that feel unsettlingly familiar. Identity, surveillance, grief, pleasure — even the apocalypse — collapse into each other, often in the same paragraph.These are the dreams of the doomed and the coping mechanisms of the barely functional — but also the love stories and inside jokes that bubble up as the world glitches around us. So if you've ever wanted to simulate the rest of your life as someone else, or found comfort in a soothing blue screen of death, pull up a barstool … the last round of reality is on the house.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

What happens when you hit your biggest goals, only to feel a profound emptiness afterward? We share a personal story about a family member who lost a title and, with it, a sense of self, prompting us to reflect on how we define ourselves beyond our achievements.Chapter Summary:00:00 Success Can Be Disorienting03:35 Finding Purpose Beyond Titles07:54 Who Are You Without It?Featured Quotes:“Success can be just as disorienting as failure.” - Maurice“Who are you really behind the title, the awards, the accolades, the certificates or whatever it is?” - Maurice“I truly, truly believe that answer will determine your next breakthrough.” - MauriceBehind the Story:Maurice shares a recent experience with a family member who faced a significant repositioning at work, leading to the loss of a title that had become their entire identity. This moment sparked a discussion about the emptiness that can follow major achievements and the necessity of finding purpose and identity beyond external validation. We explore how simple actions, like a smile or a greeting, carry immense power in changing daily interactions and rebuilding self-worth.Resources:Well Why Not Workbook: https://bit.ly/authormauricechismPodmatch: https://bit.ly/joinpodmatchwithmaurice*FREE* 5 Bold Shifts to help you silence doubt and start moving: https://bit.ly/5boldshiftsConnect With:Maurice Chism: https://bit.ly/CoachMauriceWebsite: https://bit.ly/mauricechismTo be a guest: https://bit.ly/beaguestonthatwillnevrworkpodcastBusiness Email: mchism@chismgroup.netBusiness Address: PO Box 460, Secane, PA 19018Subscribe to That Will Nevr Work Podcast:Spreaker: https://bit.ly/TWNWSpreakerSupport the channelPurchase our apparel: https://bit.ly/ThatWillNevrWorkPodcastapparel
Praise Series-Sacrifice is the Heart of WorshipPsalm 95:6-8 “O come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. O that today you would listen to his voice!”This verse was received at the prayer group yesterday, and when I read it this morning, I thought it would be a great one for today's devotional. It talks about worshiping the Lord and hearing the Lord's voice. These are both things I love to talk about, so it seemed perfect. I also think they are great topics to end the week with. I believe the world could be a much better place if more of us were worshipping the Lord instead of all the things in this world that we worship.I was listening to Father Mike Schmitz's sermon from Sunday, October 27th, yesterday on Spotify, and I really enjoyed it. He talked about how the heart of worship is sacrifice. He said you can tell how important something is to someone by what they are willing to sacrifice for it. I thought this was interesting and also challenging at the same time. Everything involves a sacrifice or at least a giving of something. For instance, if you want to eat healthily, you need to give up your soda, your junk food, and your comfort foods. If you want to watch TV, you need to give up that time that could have been spent doing something else. If you want to worship God, you need to give Him your time.Father Mike talked about one of the most important times to worship the Lord in Jewish culture: Passover. He described how the Jewish people would sacrifice a lamb to the Lord at Passover. However, they wouldn't just buy a lamb and then sacrifice it. They would buy a lamb the Sunday before Passover, and they would bring this lamb into their home. They would live with this lamb for a week. They would begin to care for this lamb, and they may even love this lamb by the end of the week, as they have just spent the week taking care of it. Then, they would carry this lamb upon their shoulders and bring it to the temple to sacrifice it to the Lord. They would do this every year. All this talk about sacrifice being the heart of worship really challenged me. It challenged me because I am in a season where sacrifice is hard for me. Well, true and meaningful sacrifice is hard for me. These days, it seems I am all too happy to sacrifice my productive time so that I can watch TV. However, what am I getting from the TV? What is that saying about what I am worshipping? I am really struggling with sacrificing for the Lord. My heart wants me to fast, and my brain finds all these reasons why I can't. My heart wants to spend more time alone with the Lord, and yet I find myself watching TV instead.I am not sure why sacrifice is so hard for me right now. Sometimes, it comes much easier. I used to be pretty good at fasting or not watching TV. I am not sure why it is more of a struggle these days, other than the fact that life is not always linear. I heard this term when I was teaching about the dark night of the soul, and I think it not only applies to that, but it applies to all of life. Sometimes, we can think that life is like a mountain we are climbing, and we climb this mountain slowly and steadily, and then we reach the top. However, have you ever really climbed a mountain or seen someone climb a mountain? Yes, slow and steady is a good pace, but you aren't always moving forward. Sometimes, you slip and fall. Sometimes, you catch yourself right away, and other times, you slide down a bit before getting back up again. Sometimes, there will be a big cliff you can't climb directly, so you need to take another path, which might not be headed up the mountain, but rather around the mountain until you find a safe way up the mountain.Do you see how walking up the mountain is probably not just a straight path up? Life is like this. It is not linear, meaning we go from one step to the next to the next. Sometimes, we go to the next step, and then we regress back three steps, then we take the next right step. Life is a process. It is one we all go through, and I am sure if you look over your life, you will see that it didn't always feel like you were moving forward. Sometimes, it felt like you were moving backward.I think going into this weekend, we can remember what Father Mike said about the sacrifice being the heart of worship. How can we worship the Lord better this weekend? What can we sacrifice in order to show our love for the Lord? If we look at what we are already sacrificing in our lives, that will show us what we are worshiping right now in our lives. What are you worshiping? For me, I think it is food and TV, but I wish it was the Lord. This weekend I will spend some time talking with the Lord and seeing what He thinks I should be sacrificing.Which brings me to the second part of this verse. The last line of this verse says, “ For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. O that today you would listen to his voice!” We are the sheep, and the Lord is our shepherd. Sheep can hear their shepherd. There have been studies done where they put a bunch of different herds of sheep together, and they disguised the shepherds so they were wearing different clothes and smelled different, and then they had the shepherds call out to the sheep. The sheep went with their shepherd because they recognized the voice.We can hear the Lord's voice, too! I like that the verse says, “O that today you would listen to his voice!” This is the desire of the Lord. He wants to talk with each one of us, and yet we are not listening to His voice. I think for most of us, we are not listening because we didn't know we could hear the Lord's voice. This is why I love talking about listening to the Lord. The more we talk about it, the more people will understand that we all have this gift. They will know that they, too, can listen to the Lord. This is such an amazing gift, and it is so important for us all to know that we have it. It is not set aside for a select few special people. It is a gift God wants to share with each and every one of us.Let me briefly go over the ways that we can hear the Lord's voice. You might already be hearing Him, and you didn't know it was Him. We can hear the Lord in four main ways. First, you may hear a voice in your head, which usually sounds a lot like your own voice. Second, you may have a thought that just pops into your head. Third, you might have a feeling about something. It is not a word or a thought, but you know something because of a feeling somewhere in your body. The fourth way is through a vision. You might see something, almost like a dream. The vision can either be like a dream, where it plays sort of like a movie, or it could just be an image, almost like a picture that you see. God can speak to you using one of these methods, a few of them, or all of them. Usually, He uses the one that He knows we will be most comfortable with because He doesn't want to scare us.You may be hearing the Lord already. Have you ever asked Him a question and then felt like you knew what the answer was? You didn't understand how you knew, but you definitely knew the answer to the question you asked the Lord. If you have not spent any time trying to hear the Lord, I invite you to spend some time this weekend practicing hearing the Lord. The reason I say practicing is because it can be hard sometimes. We don't always believe we can hear the Lord, and so sometimes, it takes a bit to get over ourselves. It can take a while to convince ourselves that we aren't crazy and that the Lord really does want to talk to us.One way that helped me was to journal our conversations. I would write a letter to the Lord, then I would ask the Lord to answer my letter using my pen, and I would write a letter back to myself. Now, I have started asking the Lord specific questions and then writing down whatever comes to mind right afterward. I don't question it while I am writing it down. I just write down all that I hear, and then I reread it the next day to see if I think the Lord could have said that. The Lord will never contradict Scripture. That is His written word, and so if you hear something that tells you to do something you know is wrong, that is not the Lord. Also, the Lord is gentle, and He does not condemn us. If you are receiving words that make you feel shame, regret, or just overall bad feelings, that is not the Lord either. The Lord may convict you of something while He is talking to you but never in a way that leaves you feeling shame.I hope you will try to hear the Lord's voice this weekend. I hope you will spend time with Him in conversation. Maybe ask Him a question you have always wanted to ask Him. I also hope you spend some time thinking about how worship is the heart of sacrifice. So, what are you currently worshipping with your sacrifice and how can you shift your worship more towards the Lord?Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening to this episode today. Lord, we love you, and we want to worship you. Please help us. Show us where we are worshiping other things instead of you. Help us to sacrifice for you, Lord. We also want to hear your voice, Lord. Help us to hear your voice. Give us the confidence we need to know you are talking to us. We love you, Lord, and we ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus's holy name, Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus. We completed our “Come As You Are Series” the other day, and I thought we might take a break from doing series. However, I talked with the Lord this morning and came up with Praise at the end for our next series. It is something that is so powerful and yet overlooked. I saw a quote I had placed in front of my treadmill several years ago that says, “If you complain, you will remain. If you praise, you will be raised!” I believe this with my whole heart, and so I decided to start the new series this morning. I hope you enjoy it. Remember, if you liked the series on Identity, all the “I AM statements," I put it all together in a book, and you can find that on Amazon. It would be a perfect gift for someone you care about for Christmas. If we are firm in our identity as a Child of God, our lives can look so much different. I look forward to seeing you again tomorrow. Remember, Jesus loves you just as you are, and so do I! Have a blessed day!Today's Word from the Lord was received in July 2025 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group. If you have any questions about the prayer group, these words, or how to join us for a meeting, please email CatholicCharismaticPrayerGroup@gmail.com. Today's Word from the Lord is, “Open the eyes of your heart, for they are the eyes that see with the clarity of my Holy Spirit who lives within you. They are the eyes that show you the depth of my love, not just for you but for all my people. When you open those eyes, you will see things that perhaps you wish you did not see. But I will fill your heart with my forgiving, merciful love so that when you see things that disturb you, that upset you, you will know my heart and you will have the grace to respond with my fullness of mercy.” www.findingtruenorthcoaching.comCLICK HERE TO DONATECLICK HERE to sign up for Mentoring CLICK HERE to sign up for Daily "Word from the Lord" emailsCLICK HERE to sign up for my newsletter & receive a free audio training about inviting Jesus into your daily lifeCLICK HERE to buy my book Total Trust in God's Safe Embrace

Reclaiming Men's Health: Proactive Wellness, Vulnerability, and the Power of Service — Lessons from Christopher ZainoIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge speaks with Christopher Zaino, former Mister America and Mister Universe, and Founder of The Stallion Project. Christopher shares his inspiring journey of overcoming ulcerative colitis and embracing a mission to help men reclaim their health, vitality, and purpose. This episode is a powerful call to action for men ready to live intentionally, with honesty, strength, and holistic wellness at the forefront.The Stallion Protocol: Realigning Men with Health and PurposeChristopher Zaino believes the root of many health struggles for men is denial. From ignoring symptoms to suppressing emotions, men are often conditioned to be self-reliant to a fault. Zaino advocates for radical honesty as the first step to reclaiming physical and emotional well-being. He urges men to stop brushing off fatigue, digestive issues, or burnout—and to schedule regular checkups and address both physical and emotional health head-on.Beyond honesty, Zaino emphasizes understanding one's biochemistry. Imbalances in testosterone, dopamine, and cortisol often explain symptoms like low energy, mood swings, and lack of drive. Through comprehensive blood work, lifestyle adjustments, and expert guidance, men can restore balance and reignite their performance and purpose. His protocol also prioritizes movement and mindset—integrating daily cardio and uplifting inputs like podcasts to elevate both body and mind.Another powerful pillar of Zaino's philosophy is vulnerability. By sharing his story, he discovered deep healing—and encourages men to do the same. He believes community, connection, and service are vital parts of wellness. Whether it's checking in with friends, helping others, or scheduling self-care as a leadership practice, Zaino's message is clear: real strength lies in self-awareness, action, and service.About Christopher ZainoChristopher Zaino is a renowned speaker, former professional bodybuilder, and the Founder of The Stallion Project. After overcoming a life-threatening health crisis, he became a passionate advocate for men's wellness, purpose, and emotional growth—coaching thousands of men to lead with authenticity and strength.About The Stallion ProjectThe Stallion Project is a movement led by Christopher Zaino dedicated to helping men in midlife reconnect with their health, purpose, and power. Through programs, coaching, and community, Zaino equips men with the tools to transform their bodies, minds, and relationships.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeThe Stallion Project WebsiteChristopher Zaino LinkedIn ProfileKey Episode HighlightsWhy radical honesty is the foundation of men's healthHow biochemistry affects energy, mood, and driveThe link between daily movement and emotional resilienceWhy vulnerability is a strength—not a weakness—for menHow service and community accelerate personal healingConclusionChristopher Zaino's story is a testament to the power of proactive self-care and emotional honesty. By integrating health, vulnerability, and service, men can reclaim their vitality and become stronger leaders in every area of life. This episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur is a must-listen for anyone ready to break the silence and step into purposeful living.
After nearly 400 conversations with Olympians, Paralympians, and trailblazing women athletes from 55 countries, one thing is clear: no two stories are alike. Some athletes train with world-class facilities, others without basic equipment. Some are household names, others are fighting for visibility in sports you've never even seen on TV. And yet, across all these differences, certain themes echo again and again.That's what this new Best Of series is all about: spotlighting both the range of experiences and the threads that connect them. We've pulled together the most powerful moments across years of conversations, including:✨ Best Advice to Younger Selves — from “give yourself grace to be a beginner” to “don't dim your light for anyone.”✨ Best Stories of Resilience — tales of athletes coming back from devastating injuries, near-misses, and moments when the world doubted them most.✨ Best Moments of Role Modelship — athletes lifting the next generation, mentoring teammates, and carrying entire communities with them to the world stage.✨ Best Stories of Identity & Joy — how athletes embrace who they are on and off the field, from glitter on the track to pride in their heritage.…and many more!You'll hear voices as different as the sports they represent, yet together, they reveal what it really takes to rise to the top. This isn't just one story. It's hundreds woven together. And this is just the beginning.In this episode, Greatness in Motion, Kimberly Alkemade (Netherlands, para-athletics) explains how shifting between prosthetic blade sponsors—from Ottobock to Xiborg to Össur—mirrors her growth as an athlete and her fight against the financial barriers facing para-sport. Fran Brown (Great Britain, paracycling) shares how defining her own path turned “can't” into world titles and Paralympic medals. Caryn Davies (USA, rowing) reflects on embodying Olympic values—excellence, friendship, respect—and how she applies them beyond sport in her law career. Marzieh Hamidi (Afghanistan, taekwondo), now training in France for the Refugee Olympic Team, speaks about resilience, displacement, and representing Afghan women denied that freedom. Each story redefines greatness not as perfection or power, but as persistence, adaptation, and motion toward something bigger than self.Flame Bearers is a women's sports storytelling studio, illuminating the unsung stories of exceptional women athletes from around the world.

In this episode of The Strength In Weakness Podcast, Morgan and Ellen explore adoption through a deeply biblical lens—our own adoption into God's family—and how that spiritual reality can shape the way parents walk with their adopted children through questions of identity and LGBTQ experiences.Drawing from Ellen's counseling work and Morgan's family stories, they talk about the unique ache and beauty of adoption: the grief of expectations that shift, the longing for belonging, and the sacred reality of being chosen and brought into a family by love, not biology.Together, they help parents see how their relationship with God—as adopted sons and daughters—can guide how they love, steady, and shepherd their children, especially when fear or self-blame rises.They unpack:How God's adoptive love models patient, non-controlling, unconditional presenceWhy adopted kids may wrestle more deeply with identity and belongingHow parents can reflect God's tenderness, stability, and pursuit in moments of tensionPractical ways to anchor your child's worth in being chosen—not just by you, but by GodThis episode invites parents to breathe again, to grieve and rejoice at the same time, and to remember: the story of adoption has always been God's story—and He walks with you as you live it out in your own home.Connect With Strength In Weakness#Temptation #Faith #ChristianPodcast #OvercomingSin #StrengthAndWeakness

Formed- Identity November 16 by Pastor Aaron Wallace
In this episode of The Daily Mastermind, George Wright III delves into the critical aspect of leadership: personal identity. He discusses the importance of clarity, identity, and confidence as foundational elements for leading both yourself and your business. The episode emphasizes the concept that one's identity sets the ceiling for their success. George explains how identity is formed through repetition rather than truth and offers a framework for consciously redesigning your identity to align with your future goals. He also touches on the natural resistance to new identities and how to overcome doubts and fears. The series aims to build a strong foundation for personal growth and entrepreneurial success.00:37 The Importance of Identity in Leadership01:55 Understanding and Shifting Your Identity05:31 Creating Your Future Self07:56 Overcoming Resistance and Embracing Change10:12 Conclusion and Upcoming TopicsYou have GREATNESS inside you.

Pastor Corbett continues our Defining Worship series by reminding us that true worship isn't just a song—it's a lifestyle marked by obedience. Using Abraham's costly obedience in Genesis 22 and the priests' empty sacrifices in Malachi 1, he shows the difference between worship rooted in surrender and worship offered with a divided heart. Drawing from Colossians 1, he calls us to “walk in a manner worthy of the Lord,” letting our love, service, generosity, and witness overflow as acts of worship. The challenge: identify where God is calling you to obey and let your whole life reflect the worth of Jesus. Join us every Tuesday in the LSM Buidling at 7 p.m. & follow us on instagram @lyahampton for updates!
