Guest: LaVashia Davis, Founder of Ell Wess Advisors (boutique family office and wealth management firm)Host: Rushion McDonaldTopic: Building multigenerational wealth, family wealth planning, asset protection, and creating lasting legacies. Purpose of the Interview The interview focuses on helping first-generation wealth builders and entrepreneurs understand that wealth creation is about more than investments. Davis explains how families can organize, protect, grow, and transfer wealth across generations by treating their family finances as a structured enterprise rather than simply accumulating money. A central theme is that many successful individuals earn substantial incomes but lack a blueprint for preserving and transferring wealth. Davis advocates for intentional planning, legal structures, family involvement, and asset protection to create lasting legacies. Key Takeaways 1. Wealth Requires a Blueprint Davis explains that creating a legacy does not happen automatically. Families need a deliberate plan, legal structures, and defined roles if they want wealth to survive beyond one generation. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Making money and building wealth are not the same. Wealth requires systems and succession planning. 2. Family Should Be Treated as an Asset One of Davis's strongest messages is that family members can play meaningful roles in wealth-building efforts. She argues that when people think about legacy, they often overlook the importance of human relationships and family participation. Wealth-transfer strategies frequently require successors, trustees, managers, and beneficiaries. Many of those roles can be filled by family members. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Family can be a strategic asset when properly organized and aligned. 3. Not Every Family Member Contributes Equally Davis acknowledges that some family members may behave more like liabilities than assets. Using a balance-sheet analogy, she explains that every family includes both contributors and individuals who may create financial burdens. The key is identifying those dynamics without allowing them to derail long-term wealth planning. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Successful family wealth planning requires honest assessment of family dynamics. 4. Wealth Management Is More Than Investments Davis differentiates her firm's approach from traditional investment-focused advisory services. Her firm begins with: Family and wealth governance Legal structures Estate planning Tax planning Business succession planning Preparing future generations to inherit wealth Investments are addressed after these foundational elements are in place. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Investments should support a broader wealth strategy, not drive it. 5. "Your Family Is a Business" One of Davis's most memorable concepts is that families should think of themselves as enterprises. She advises clients to separate their “wealth business” from their personal household and to create structures that can survive beyond their lifetime. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Families should operate with the same intentionality that successful businesses use. 6. First-Generation Wealth Creates Unique Challenges Davis specializes in serving people who are the first high earners or successful entrepreneurs within their families. She notes that these individuals often face challenges that previous generations never had to navigate, including: Sudden financial complexity Family expectations Tax planning Asset protection Wealth transfer decisions [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: New wealth requires new skills and specialized guidance. 7. There Are Four Forms of Capital Davis identifies four sources of capital: Human Capital – people, family, relationships Intellectual Capital – knowledge and expertise Social Capital – networks and connections Financial Capital – money and assets She argues that most families focus only on financial capital while neglecting the others. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth is broader than money. 8. Asset Protection Is Essential Davis warns that unprotected assets can disappear quickly due to lawsuits, business failures, creditor claims, or debt obligations. She emphasizes the importance of proper ownership structures, legal entities, and asset protection strategies. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth must be protected as carefully as it is created. 9. Different Advisors Serve Different Stages of Wealth When McDonald asks how people should evaluate their current financial advisor, Davis provides a thoughtful perspective: An advisor who helped someone build their first million dollars may not be the right advisor to help them grow to ten million dollars. Increased wealth often brings more complexity and a need for broader expertise. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Financial advisory needs evolve as wealth grows. Notable Quotes On Family and Legacy "Your family is your God-given team, not your liability." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Planning "When you say that you want to build something that's long lasting or you want to create a legacy for children, there's a blueprint that needs to be followed." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Dynamics "Your family even has a balance sheet when it comes to assets and liabilities." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Financial Complexity "My particular mission is the first-generation families who want to make an exponential difference in their families." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Her Approach "We don't begin with investments. We begin by stabilizing and creating a way that you really want to operate your wealth business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Wealth "Your family and your finances are definitely a business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Building "Your family is in the business of growing the value of your last name. Period." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Capital "The four sources of capital are human capital, intellectual capital, social capital, and financial capital." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Asset Protection "The wealth you build can be taken if it's not protected." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Advisor Selection "The advisor that may have gotten you to your first million... may not be the advisor that can get you to ten million." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Overall Message Lavashia Davis's core message is that wealth is not simply about earning or investing money—it is about building systems, structures, and family alignment that allow wealth to endure across generations. By treating the family as an asset, activating multiple forms of capital, protecting assets legally, and planning intentionally, families can transform income into legacy. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The day before Lindsay Clancy killed her three children, her medication was increased. Nobody has fully explained why that decision was made, or by whom. She'd already been on roughly thirteen different psychiatric drugs across about four months. Her own malpractice lawsuit describes that final dose increase, paired with a night without sleep, in the hours before Cora, five, Dawson, three, and Callan, eight months, died in their Duxbury, Massachusetts home. She's pleading not guilty by reason of insanity. She'd checked herself into a psychiatric hospital on New Year's Eve after telling her husband she was having thoughts of hurting her children. She was discharged. Nineteen days later, the children were dead. Jury selection began July 20 in Plymouth Superior Court. That same morning, before a single juror was seated, prosecutors moved to challenge her defense experts, the third motion in eleven days aimed at limiting her defense. Prosecutors had already dropped all three strangulation charges on July 9, calling them redundant, a move that erased any middle ground between the two remaining verdicts: life without parole, or not criminally responsible. On July 13, the judge blocked women who've survived postpartum psychosis from testifying about the illness in their own words. That leaves the jury with paper: prescription records, a dosage change, a malpractice complaint describing exactly how the medication was mishandled. Two jurors were seated by lunch. The trial is expected to run four to eight weeks. Patrick Clancy, her husband, is on the defense witness list. He's also suing her healthcare providers and has publicly asked people to forgive her. Thirteen drugs, one increase, one sleepless night, and a question nobody in that courtroom has fully answered yet.

What if our obsession with “dangerous” sun is killing us?If you (recklessly) leave your urban office for lunch, you are told to yank your hat down low. If you (again, recklessly) let your kids dash into the backyard, you are told to slather them in sunscreen—or learn to live with the guilt.And yes, sun avoidance undoubtedly prevents some skin cancers, including the deadliest type, melanomaBut a recent study suggests sunlight contributes to hundreds of thousands of deaths every year in the United States alone—orders of magnitude more than the estimated 8400 annual US melanoma deaths.In this episode, we discuss evidence linking sun avoidance toalmost a million annual deaths in the US and Europe alone, exceeding the number caused by global military conflictsbreast, pancreatic, colon, and lung cancers, as well as heart disease, high blood pressure, and stroketo INCREASED risk of death in those diagnosed with sun-induced melanoma.Yes, you read that right; some melanoma deaths may be related to too little sunlight. (But do understand that this is complex--sunlight DOES cause melanoma. Well, some melanomas....)We also discuss why supplementing with vitamin D pills fails to remedy these terrible conditions, and what a thoughtful person can do instead, while staying safe.We hope you enjoy this episode, and that it helps you enjoy the sun again--thoughtfully, of course.

Chapter 12 of the Book of Acts wraps up with Herod dying, Saul and Barnabus completing their mission in Jerusalem and heading back to Antioch. Luke divides Acts into two parts and Chapter 12 is the end of the first portion. The good news of Jesus Christ dying and being raised from the dead as the ultimate sacrifice for sin has been proclaimed in Jerusalem and beyond, primarily through the leadership of Peter. The second portion of Acts will highlight Paul's missionary endeavors. As we recap the first 12 chapters to see how God has worked through His people, we see that the Word of God has increased and multiplied in 4 ways - the spoken word, the written word, the silent word, and the Living Word. It's as vital and vibrant today as it was for the early church. How can we as individuals and corporately continue to see God's word increase and multiply?

The Detroit Lions cut cornerback Terrion Arnold to eliminate a season-long distraction and build around playable depth at corner. The legal case, including a million dollar bond and interstate court travel, limited availability and focus. As Scott Bischoff said, the timing and transparency issues pointed to a commissioner's exempt-list outcome anyway. Why did the Detroit Lions cut Terrion Arnold now? Detroit acted to remove a major distraction and move forward with players who can practice and play. Cornerback Terrion Arnold, Detroit Lions, faced kidnapping and robbery charges, a million dollar bond, and repeated travel for court, which prevented full investment in football. As Scott Bischoff noted, the post-hearing timing and a lack of full transparency pushed Detroit to act, and Arnold was headed for the commissioner's exempt list regardless. Kelvin Sheppard had already said Arnold was falling behind, and Russell Brown added that if teams truly wanted Arnold, a trade, waiver claim, or quick signing would have happened. Can the Detroit Lions cornerback room hold up without Terrion Arnold? Yes, it can function with veteran competence and real competition. Cornerback Roger McCreary, Detroit Lions, profiles as the starting nickel, cornerback Rock Ya-Sin, Detroit Lions, becomes a key outside option, and cornerback DJ Reed, Detroit Lions, settles the CB1 matchups when healthy. Rookies cornerback Ennis Rakestraw Jr., Detroit Lions, and cornerback Keith Abney, Detroit Lions, compete to seize CB2 or rotational roles, with Thomas Harper and others in the mix. Russ Brown pointed out that Rock Ya-Sin posted a career-high nine pass deflections last season and allowed only 28 receptions for 274 yards, and even as a rookie he started 13 games and allowed 46 receptions. For context, Amik Robertson gave up 70 receptions, almost 900 yards and 8 touchdowns last year. Detroit does not need rookies to play every snap in September. How will Detroit's front four and defensive plan protect the secondary? Increased pressure and flexible personnel shorten coverage snaps. Edge Aidan Hutchinson, Detroit Lions, teams with defensive tackle Tylek Williams, Detroit Lions, defensive tackle Alim McNeill, Detroit Lions, and edge Dorsey Moore, Detroit Lions, to generate the heat missing last year. Expect more nickel and dime once safety Brian Branch, Detroit Lions, returns and safety Kirby Joseph, Detroit Lions, is full go. As Russell Brown said, early in the season Detroit can lean a bit more on base with linebackers Jack Campbell, Malcolm Rodriguez, Dorsey Barnes, Jimmy Rolder and Trevor Nowaski until the safety room stabilizes. Coach Kelvin Sheppard has the bodies to mix packages. What should fans expect from Drew Petzing's offense? A more assertive, gap-heavy run game that marries to play action. Offensive coordinator Drew Petzing, Detroit Lions, will feature duo, pin-pull and trap concepts that fit running back Isaiah Pacheco, Detroit Lions, better than heavy zone. Tackle Penei Sewell, Detroit Lions, operates on the left, while the right side grows with tackle Blake Miller, Detroit Lions, and guard Tate Ratledge, Detroit Lions, plus guard Cade Mays, Detroit Lions. Quarterback Jared Goff, Detroit Lions, benefits from defined run looks and intermediate play action. Offensive sleeper Tight end Tyler Conklin, Detroit Lions, gives Detroit a vetted third-down and red-zone option, stabilizes 12 and 13 personnel, and eases early load if tight end Sam LaPorta, Detroit Lions, is limited. Defensive sleeper Defensive tackle Skyler Gibbs Howard, Detroit Lions, as a true three-tech, uses quickness to penetrate and disrupt in camp and preseason, complementing Mekhi Wingo, Detroit Lions. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #terrionarnold #rogermccreary #rockya-sin #djreed #ennisrakestrawjr. #keithabney #aidanhutchinson #tylekwilliams #alimmcneill #brianbranch #kirbyjoseph #isaiahpacheco #jaredgoff #tylerconklin #drewpetzing Learn more about your ad choices.

On this episode of New York's Finest: Retired & Unfiltered, John Macari, Marlon Bethel, and Eric Dym break down one of the biggest law enforcement stories in New York. Federal agents executed a search warrant at the home of former NYC Sheriff Anthony Miranda, the latest development in the ongoing investigations surrounding the Sheriff's Office. We'll examine everything known so far, what remains unanswered, and what this could mean for Miranda and New York City law enforcement. Then we turn our attention to the NYPD's latest recruiting strategy after city leaders approved raising the maximum hiring age for new police officers. The department has now: Lowered the minimum hiring age. Reduced the college credit requirement. Increased recruiting incentives. Raised the maximum hiring age. Are these smart reforms to expand the applicant pool—or signs that the NYPD's hiring crisis remains far more serious than City Hall admits? We'll discuss what these changes say about staffing, morale, retention, and the future of policing in New York City. Support Our Sponsor — Kalshi Get $20 when you trade $20!

Maximizing Fitness, Fat Loss & Running Through Perimenopause
Your cravings, mood swings, bloating and sluggish workouts are not signs that you are losing control, but are signals that your body needs different support.In this episode, Louise Valentine, one of the world's leading women's holistic health, fitness and performance experts, sits down with Jen to explain how hormonal surges around ovulation and the luteal phase can affect female runners during perimenopause. They discuss why tracking your menstrual cycle and being aware of specific symptoms can help you recognize patterns in your energy, appetite, mood, recovery and performance instead of blaming yourself.Louise explains that research indicates that women burn more calories during the luteal phase, which can increase hunger and the need for additional carbohydrates in active women. Simple adjustments, such as adding an additional nourishing snack, female-specific hydration and slight modifications in workout intensity can help ease cravings, anxiety, fatigue, frustrating bloating, GI distress and low moods.They also discuss the risks of underfueling, following rigid nutrition plans and combining intense training with alcohol, stress and poor recovery. The key is not to stop pursuing your goals, but to understand when your body needs specific support and adjustments. Your goal after listening is to choose a few strategies specific to your goals and symptoms, track the results, and get back to feeling more confident, energized and in control throughout your cycle.RESOURCES + LINKSLearn more & apply to join our Podcast Insiders membership here: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/podcastinsidersLearn & level up with my free nutrition guide & award-winning 1:1 Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.comLearn, laugh & level up with a Breaking Through Wellness masterclass here.Check out my FullScript here where you can see my curated favorite supplement picks, by topic, to address your concerns & save 25% off!

Shane Williams, President and CEO Of West Red Lake Gold Mines (TSX.V:WRLG – OTCQB:WRLGF), joins me to review the key metrics from Q2 operations which demonstrated substantially higher mined ounces and gold produced at their flagship Madsen Gold Project, in the Red Lake district of Ontario, Canada. Q2 Operating Highlights Mined tonnage increased 46% to 75,524 tonnes in Q2 from 51,616 tonnes in Q1, while mined ounces increased 73% to 10,459 ounces from 6,033 ounces in the first quarter, reflecting both higher mining rates and an increase in average mined grade. Gold production totaled 8,576 ounces during Q2 2026, representing a 51% increase from the 5,667 ounces produced in Q1 2026. Due to increased mine productivity a surface stockpile of approximately 10,768 tonnes had been generated by the end of Q2 representing approximately 1,500 contained ounces of gold based on estimated grades. The mill achieved average processing rates of approximately 842 tonnes per day (“tpd”). Over the second half of 2026, processing rates are expected to increase to approximately 1,000 tpd. Shane reviewed that the development-focused strategy implemented during the first half of 2026 is now translating into measurable operating improvements as mine sequencing advanced to unlock multiple stoping fronts and operational flexibility continued to improve. Additionally, all the exploration success had at the 4447 Zone is now factoring into mining and production here in H2, and he points to all the recent success at the 904 Zone having a similar trajectory with first mining anticipated in H2 of 2027. Next we discussed the higher All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC) in Q4 and Q1 and how the ongoing ramp-up in production will steadily lower the costs over the next few quarters. Shane highlighted that in the second half of this year that the shaft will be rehabilitated and begin hoisting ore, and this will further drive down costs over the next few quarters. The steady nameplate run-of-mine production and costs will likely be achieved in 2027 and beyond. We also discussed that the higher oil and diesel prices were not a major cost input and have very muted effect on their underground mining operations where the site mostly runs on cheap hydroelectric power. We then discussed the next phase of growth which will see satellite deposits like Fork, Starratt-Olsen, and eventually Rowan augment the production at Lower Austin and Austin South at Madsen. The Company will be putting out a Pre-Feasibility Study in September wrapping updated economics around Madsen and factoring in how future production from Rowan would increase production growth and take the company to the next level of producer. Wrapping up we discussed the many areas of focus for exploration and resource expansion, including greenfield surface targets, past producing brownfield areas like Starratt-Olsen and Mt Jamie, and underground targets as the company continues to dewater areas of Madsen that haven't been touched by modern exploration or mining; with last mining occurring back in the 1960s and 1970s.

God gave Adam and Eve one rule in the Garden of Eden, and they still broke it. It is one of the earliest and most honest portraits of the human heart — born with a tendency to rebel, resistant to authority, and quick to view any restriction as an unwelcome constraint on personal freedom. And yet a world without rules, as this episode thoughtfully demonstrates, is not a world of freedom at all. It is a world on its way to self-destruction. The rules God gives us are not arbitrary restrictions. They are the guidelines of a Designer who knows exactly how we were made and what conditions allow us to flourish. Just as a vehicle's owner's manual is written for the benefit of the driver, Scripture's commands are written for our protection and our good. The Law given to the Israelites after four hundred years of slavery was not bondage — it was the very thing that made genuine freedom possible, teaching a people who had never governed themselves how to live and how to relate to God. Deuteronomy 5:33 frames obedience not as a burden but as a pathway: walk in obedience to all that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper. Obedience rooted in love is not a heavy yoke. It is a natural and grateful response to a God who has already shown us favor and who always has our best interests at heart. Today's Bible Verse "Walk in obedience to all that the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess."— Deuteronomy 5:33, NIV Ponder Today God's rules are for our protection, not our restriction. Just as traffic laws prevent deaths and medical standards protect patients, God's commands create boundaries that keep us from the chaos and destruction we would bring on ourselves without them. To obey is better than sacrifice. First Samuel 15:22 makes clear that God is less interested in religious performance than in a heart that genuinely submits to His authority. Obedience is the truest form of worship. Obedience should never be a transaction. We do not obey so that God will show us favor. We obey because He already has. Gratitude, not bargaining, is the proper foundation for a life of faithful obedience. Love is the most powerful motivator for obedience. We naturally obey those we love, trust, and respect. The more we contemplate what God has done for us, the more our love and trust grow, and the more naturally obedience follows. A Prayer for You Today Lord, we give thanks for Your wisdom in establishing rules and boundaries for us to follow, for our own good and for the good of others. We are grateful that when we obey, You bless us exponentially as we dive deeper into our relationship with You each day. Help us to see Your commands not as a heavy yoke but as an expression of Your love and protection. May our obedience flow not from obligation but from a heart that is genuinely grateful for all You have already done. In Your mighty name, Amen. Don't Miss an Episode If today's prayer stirred a fresh desire to walk more closely in step with God's commands, we'd love to stay connected.

Halftime 2026. Remember, halftime isn't the end of the game—it's where iconic coaches, leaders, and champions make adjustments. It's where winning teams regroup, refocus, and come charging out of the tunnel with a renewed fire. Maybe the first half of your year has been incredible. Maybe it's been one of the toughest seasons of your life. Or maybe it's been somewhere in between. Wherever you find yourself today, hear me loud and clear...the game is NOT over. You still have six months to create breakthrough and end 2026 in epic fashion. Six months to strengthen your faith. Six months to improve your health. Six months to restore relationships. Six months to chase the dream God placed on your heart. Six months to become the person you're truly called to be. In this special Halftime Episode, I'm sharing the 5-biggest reflections I'm personally walking through, along with 10-powerful questions that challenged me deeply. My prayer is that they challenge you too. Don't just listen to this episode...pause, reflect, answer the questions, and then go take action. Because the best may still be ahead of you. In this episode, you'll discover: Why every great comeback begins by honestly reviewing the scoreboard. How gratitude builds confidence and why celebrating your wins is essential for sustained growth. Why championship seasons always include losses—and how to transform pain into purpose instead of letting setbacks define you. The simple adjustments that can dramatically change your next six months. Why small daily disciplines truly become the "small hinges that swing big doors." How to evaluate your faith, family, fitness, finances, fun, and leadership at halftime. The importance of dreaming again, believing again, praying again, and stepping boldly into what God is calling you to do. 10 soul-punching questions that will challenge your heart, sharpen your focus, and help you finish 2026 stronger than you started. What it really means to stop surviving...and start playing to WIN the second half. The truth is this...the scoreboard at halftime doesn't determine the final outcome. Championships are won because someone chooses to make adjustments. Someone decides to believe again. Someone gets back up after being knocked down. Someone renews their faith, recommits to the process, and refuses to quit. That someone can be YOU. As you reflect on the first half of the year, don't waste this opportunity. Recover. Refocus. Reignite. Give yourself permission to celebrate what God has already done, learn from every setback, make the adjustments you know you need to make, and attack the second half with everything you've got. Your story is still being written. The best version of you is still waiting to emerge. And remember...the best is NOT behind you. The best is yet to come. If this episode challenged or encouraged you, I'd love to hear from you. Share it with a friend, post it on social media, and tag me so I can see who's committed to making the second half of 2026 their strongest yet.

Episode OverviewIn this conversation, Amy Wheeler sits down with yoga therapist and educator Ashley McKeachie to explore the lived experience of ahimsa—non-harming—as it unfolds in real time with aging bodies and evolving nervous systems.Ashley shares how her work with older adults (ages 55–95+) has reshaped her understanding of yoga therapy, shifting from performance and outcomes toward presence, pacing, and relational care. What emerges is a grounded and practical view of yoga as a system that supports resilience, dignity, and connection across the lifespan.This episode offers a clear lens into how yoga philosophy becomes actionable—not as theory, but as daily practice.About Ashley McKeachieAshley McKeachie is a yoga therapist, educator, and department chair at Saddleback College's Emeritus Institute in Southern California. She teaches large-scale classes in yoga, balance, mobility, and wellness for older adults, integrating yoga therapy, breathwork, and philosophy into accessible, community-based education.Her work centers on helping individuals build confidence, regulate their nervous systems, and maintain independence through thoughtful, adaptable practices.Key Themes in This EpisodeAhimsa as a Lived PracticeAhimsa moves beyond the idea of “non-violence” and becomes a daily inquiry:How am I treating myself right now?Am I pushing, or am I listening?Is this choice supporting stability or creating strain?For Ashley's students, ahimsa often begins with self-permission—to slow down, to rest, and to shift lifelong patterns of over-effort.Aging and the Nervous SystemWorking with a population ranging from their 50s to mid-90s, Ashley highlights:The persistence of “push through” mentalitiesThe challenge of changing patterns that have “worked” for decadesThe opportunity to reintroduce softness, pacing, and awarenessRather than decline, she often observes:Increased strength and balanceImproved confidence and postureGreater emotional regulation and clarityBreath as a Foundational ToolOne of the most consistent takeaways from her students:“You've taught me how to breathe.”Breath becomes:A tool for managing medical procedures and stressA way to regulate the nervous system in real timeA lifelong skill that extends far beyond the classroomThe Role of Sangha (Community)Ashley emphasizes that community is not secondary—it is essential.In her classes:Students learn each other's namesGroup work is intentionally structuredSocial connection is actively facilitatedFor many older adults facing isolation, this becomes a primary source of:BelongingEmotional supportContinued engagement with lifeSlowing Down as a Therapeutic StrategyAshley's teaching approach prioritizes:Slow pacingChoice and autonomyExploration rather than performanceThis creates:A sense of safetyReduced fear of movementIncreased willingness to participateA Dream UnplannedAshley reflects on her professional path—from training younger yoga students to working with older adults—and describes her current role as:“A dream I didn't even know I had.”Her experience highlights an important thread:Direction mattersEffort mattersAnd there are moments where something larger organizes the path forwardPractical TakeawaysListeners may consider:Where am I pushing when I could be listening?What would ahimsa look like in my daily routines?How can I support both independence and connection as I age—or support others who are aging?Am I allowing enough time for stillness and internal awareness?Resources & Where to Find AshleySaddleback College Emeritus InstituteFree or low-cost classes for adults 55+Many online options available across multiple statesRancho La Puerta (Mexico)Wellness retreats where Ashley teaches periodicallyFocus on nervous system balance, nature, and immersive learningClosing ReflectionThis conversation invites a steady reframing:Ahimsa is not passive. It is not avoidance.It is an active, moment-to-moment discernment— a willingness to support life, rather than override it.And in many ways, the later years of life offer a clear mirror: what we practice consistently is what carries us forward.
review: Colonel Jeff McCausland explains how Minie ball technology increased lethal ranges at Gettysburg. While accuracy improved significantly, military tactics remained outdated, failing to account for the technology's devastating power against soldiers trained for older muskets.
The 250th birthday of our country -- it's just about finally here. The longer holiday weekend means celebrations are starting early, with many of them already underway. While the 4th of July is a time of celebration and excitement, it can also be a dangerous time -- fireworks, lots of people drinking, and more. And since fireworks are out across most of the state, you may be thinking about some other ways to celebrate the holiday. In this segment, Inside Sources talks about the dangers of driving under the influence. We also discuss boating under the influence and the dangers around that with Captain Chase Pili, Public Information Officer with the Utah Department of Natural Resources Law Enforcement Division.

We walk through my blood work and why a “normal” total testosterone range can still leave you performing below your potential, especially when sleep, stress, body fat, and micronutrients are quietly dragging you down.We also talk about our partnership with Vitality Blueprint and what changes when you stop relying on the standard 10 to 20 lab markers and start looking at 80+ markers with clear recommendations and scientific references. That bigger picture helps you avoid the common trap of getting sold on TRT as the first option. TRT can be the right call for some people, but we make a strong case for optimizing naturally first, using a structured test, plan, retest approach and working alongside medical professionals when needed.You'll hear practical strategies for testosterone optimization and longevity: lifting weights without fearing cardio, eating enough protein and healthy fats, improving vitamin D, managing cortisol, reducing alcohol, avoiding estrogen-like chemicals where possible, and building a sleep routine that actually works, including getting your phone out of the bedroom. If you're a coach, we also get into how blood work and better systems can level up your service while keeping you in your lane.Subscribe, share this with a friend who's “fine” but tired, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway: what's the one habit you're changing first?Want to become a SUCCESSFUL personal trainer?

AI is a transformational technology impacting education, business, law, and productivity. The U.S. and China are in a high-stakes race to dominate AI development with the U.S. slightly ahead (estimated months, not years). 1.
