Sanctification Explained: Sanctification is the ongoing process of becoming more like God, involving a change in one's nature, thoughts, and desires over time, as individuals strive to live in accordance with their covenants. The Role of Grace: Grace is central to understanding both justification and sanctification. It emphasizes that salvation is a gift from God, not solely based on individual works, and that individuals can have confidence in their justified state. Addressing Perfectionism: Many Latter-day Saints struggle with perfectionism, often feeling unworthy despite understanding the doctrine. The conversation highlights the importance of recognizing one’s worth as inherent and not solely based on actions. Mental Health Considerations: The discussion touches on the intersection of mental health and religious beliefs, particularly regarding OCD and scrupulosity, emphasizing the need for compassion and understanding in addressing these issues. Leadership Applications Fostering a Culture of Grace: Leaders can create an environment where members feel secure in their justified state, encouraging them to engage in the gospel without the burden of shame or guilt. Understanding Individual Needs: By recognizing that unmet needs may drive certain behaviors, leaders can approach members with empathy, focusing on support rather than judgment. Promoting Continuous Growth: Leaders should emphasize the importance of striving for sanctification, framing commandments and ordinances as opportunities for growth rather than as mere obligations, thus inspiring members to engage more fully in their spiritual journeys.

This week on Truth From The Stand, I'm sitting down with Chad Sylvester for a conversation that started light and ended up digging pretty deep. We talk about whether hunting has become watered down, and what that question really means in a world shaped by technology, influence, and constant noise. Somewhere along the way, we get into old boots, old lessons, and the kind of hunting experiences that leave a mark because they're earned, not curated. We unpack how modern tools, social media, and shifting expectations have changed the way a lot of us experience the woods—and how easy it is to lose sight of why we started hunting in the first place. Chad and I get honest about influence, ego, motivation, and the tension between chasing outcomes and honoring the process. At the heart of it all is a reminder that woodsmanship, awareness, discomfort, and humility can't be watered down—and that the best parts of hunting still live in the friction, the uncertainty, and the quiet moments when nobody's watching. This one's about reconnecting with what matters, questioning our motives, and remembering that the hunt is supposed to shape us—not the other way around. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 477 Hunting can feel watered down when friction and challenge are removed. Real growth comes from discomfort, effort, and earned experience. Woodsmanship and reading nature are skills that can't be replaced or diluted. Influence can be driven by ego—or by a genuine desire to help others. Self-reflection reveals why we hunt and what truly motivates us. The dilution of hunting reflects broader cultural shifts, not just technology. The deepest value of hunting lies in connection, struggle, and personal growth.

How can leaders ensure their message lands with clarity, confidence, and influence? In this episode, Kevin Eikenberry sits down with Dr. Laura Sicola to discuss how leaders can strengthen their influence by mastering their leadership voice. Laura introduces her "vocal executive presence" framework, built around the three Cs: Command the room, Connect with the audience, and Close the deal. Kevin and Laura break down the three communication channels every leader uses—verbal, vocal, and visual—and why alignment across all three is essential for credibility. They unpack common leadership communication pitfalls, such as overwhelming others with too much "relevant" information instead of focusing on what is truly essential, and how habits like vocal fry, weak openings, or cluttered slides can quietly erode influence. Laura also shares memorable frameworks, including the 60-to-60 rule for opening meetings and the "prismatic voice" to remain authentic in different situations. Laura's Story: Dr. Laura Sicola is an executive communication coach, 3x TEDx speaker, and author of Speaking to Influence: Mastering Your Leadership Voice. With over two decades of experience working with Fortune 500 companies, global nonprofits, and government agencies, she empowers leaders to show up powerfully and speak with confidence in high-stakes conversations. Her proprietary "Vocal Executive Presence" framework helps leaders command the room, connect with their audience, and close the deal. She is a cognitive linguist by training and former faculty at the University of Pennsylvania. Her TEDx talk has nearly 7 million views, and her client list includes Amazon, Intel, HP, Kaiser Permanente, and the U.S. Department of Commerce. https://laurasicola.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/drlaurasicola https://x.com/LauraSicola https://www.facebook.com/drlaurasicola/ https://www.youtube.com/@LauraSicolainc https://www.tiktok.com/@laurasicola https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/speaking-to-influence/id1515649028 This Episode is brought to you by...

What if everything you've been told about creating influence is wrong?    This week on the podcast, I deconstruct the recent New York Times Style magazine article about Generation X, which reveals how a generation dismissed as 'slackers' actually created the blueprint for authentic influence and how their legacy can inspire anyone seeking to use their voice for real impact.   In this episode, I explore:   Why Gen X's reputation as "slackers" is a myth, and how their discernment and authenticity shaped culture Lessons from iconic Gen X art and films (The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and more) How Gen X's refusal to perform for approval is a model for today's influential voices Why authenticity, not polish, creates lasting transformation for speakers The connection between Gen X wisdom and my book "Being Smart is Stupid"—why performing intelligence undermines real leadership More from Tricia  Transform your expertise into a speaking legacy with me inside The Big Talk Academy Mastery Join me LIVE for my Free Monthly Workshop Explore my content and follow me on YouTube Follow me on Instagram  Connect with me on Facebook  Connect with me on LinkedIn  Visit my website at TriciaBrouk.com

The algorithm doesn't want you to think; it wants you to react. It wants you to be a character in its story, following a predictable path of outrage and agreement. We are living through a shift where the line between human and bot is blurring. Not because computers are getting more human-like, but because we are becoming more bot-like. We outsource our worldview to gurus, tribes, and mainstream consensus because the "heavy lifting" of System Two thinking is expensive. Being an NPC is a choice of convenience, but being an "Autonomous Player" is an act of leadership. This episode isn't about being right; it's about the bravery of having no opinion on the trivial, so you can have a passionate, informed perspective on the essential. SPONSORS

Most leaders have a vision, a plan, and the authority to move it forward, but real momentum shows up when you understand how culture is being shaped through trust and influence behind the scenes.Host Matt Kirchner sits down with Dr. Ben Johnson, Assistant Superintendent for Secondary Schools at Bismarck Public Schools, and Bobby Dodd, Assistant Principal at May River High School, co-authors of Intentional Influence. They break down how influence really spreads inside an organization, in schools, in business, and in industry, and why the people with the most impact are often not the ones with the biggest titles.At the center of the conversation is their cultural mapping framework—making the invisible influence network visible. You'll hear how to identify formal and informal influencers, classify commitment on a five-point scale, and invest your time where it will actually shift the culture instead of just managing noise.In this episode:How to move a team from compliance to commitment—without pressure, politics, or performative buy-inWhy “trust is the currency of culture,” and how to build it in everyday leadership momentsThe cultural mapping basics: formal vs. informal leaders, a five-point commitment scale, and understanding how influence flows throughout your organizationThe difference between positional power and personal power, and why titles can create action without creating true alignment“Energy vampires” and the “pinging effect”: how attitudes spread through a team, and how strong leaders respond in a way that protects momentum3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Lasting change is a culture outcome, not a plan outcome. Compliance can produce short-term execution, but commitment is what sustains new behaviors when nobody is watching. The work is to build alignment and trust so people internalize the “why” and carry the standard forward.2. Cultural mapping helps you lead the real organization, not just the org chart. Influence runs through informal networks of credibility and relationships, and the highest-impact people often do not have the biggest titles. When you identify formal and informal influencers and where people sit on a commitment scale, you can invest your time where it will actually shift the culture.3. Influence spreads fast, so leaders have to manage energy and momentum intentionally. “Energy vampires” and the “pinging effect” are real, and unchecked negativity multiplies through the network. The goal is not to label people, but to understand what's driving resistance, address it directly, and redirect influence toward the commitments the organization is trying to build.Resources in this Episode:Get the book Intentional Influence: Harnessing Cultural Mapping to Build CommitmentMore resources on the show notes page: https://techedpodcast.com/influenceWe want to hear from you!

In this Your Health University episode, Jamie sits down with Colin Stevens, Director of Engagement at Your Health, for a practical and honest conversation about communication—what it is, why it breaks down, and how leaders can immediately improve it. Colin reframes communication as understanding, not just delivery, explains why tone is the packaging that determines whether a message gets opened, and explores how ego blocks empathy in moments of conflict. The episode ends with a simple, powerful challenge: if you want to elevate your career and relationships, start by becoming a better listener. www.YourHealth.Org

Allie opens the week fired up, drawing eerie parallels between 2020's BLM-fueled chaos and today's anti-ICE protests. She exposes the manufactured outrage, media double standards, and toxic empathy that shield criminals while demonizing law enforcement and Christians. Allie digs into why liberal women — especially Gen Z white progressive women — fall hardest for these traps, channeling misplaced mothering instincts into activism and politics instead of children, leading to bitterness, instability, and selective empathy. She breaks down the viral article “Why Young Women Moved Left While Young Men Stayed Sane” by Vittorio, citing data on the growing gender-political divide, social media's consensus engine, university echo chambers, declining marriage and motherhood priorities, and women's higher agreeableness, making them more susceptible to propaganda. This is a no-nonsense call to critical thinking, discernment, and biblical clarity.

Welcome to episode #1020 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a time when technology listens more closely than people realize and advertising feels less predictive than presumptive, understanding how culture, data and human behavior collide has become essential. David "Shingy" Shing has spent his career at that intersection, shaping how global brands think about creativity, relevance and the emotional consequences of digital systems. Know as the Digital Prophet at AOL (and then Verizon) and a very influential voice in modern branding and innovation, Shingy has advised companies, leaders and creatives on how emerging technologies reshape not just markets, but meaning itself. His work has consistently challenged organizations to move beyond optimization toward empathy, imagination and cultural intelligence. He argues that the most important signals in a data-saturated world are often the quietest ones. That perspective now finds a more personal, reflective outlet in his Substack, Shingy, a newsletter focused on branding, culture, AI and the human side of technology. He explores how conversational data, algorithmic inference and attention-driven business models are altering the relationship between consumers and the systems designed to serve them. Shingy examines why ads increasingly feel intrusive rather than helpful, how conversations themselves have become raw material for targeting and why consumer fatigue is less about frequency than about lost agency. Shingy's work surfaces a growing tension between personalization and privacy, usefulness and surveillance, convenience and control. He argues that as machines become better listeners, brands must become better stewards of restraint, intent and respect... or risk eroding the very relationships they're trying to monetize. Grounded in curiosity and creative provocation, his thinking offers a necessary counterweight to an industry too often obsessed with what can be done instead of what should be done.

In today's episode, I sit down with Leonard Armato to talk about how the sports business has flipped from contract negotiation to full-on architecture. We get into why athletes now function as cultural magnets, how tech and venture opened the door to portfolios, production companies, and equity plays, and why the old agent model is shrinking fast. Leonard shares how he helped Shaq build intellectual property instead of chasing traditional endorsements, plus what it means to be an advisor in a NIL world where everything is public. We also talk core values, ecosystem, and why money amplifies character.

I'm breaking down the real lesson: stop letting politics hijack your peace and start playing the only game you can control—your life playbook. Once you do your civic duty, you gotta learn how to navigate the rules, compound good moves, and stop chasing “fair” because the world ain't designed like that. I also give you my daily discipline that's been changing everything: the first two hours of my day are mine (no phone, no market, no noise)—because if you don't put pressure on life, life gon' put pressure on you.Trump emotional influence, politics and mental health, political polarization, how to stay calm during elections, stop being emotionally triggered, discipline routine, morning routine no phone, compounding good decisions, mindset for success, personal development, control what you can control, faith and focus, stress management.Join our Exclusive Patreon!!!

The Human Equation with Joe Pangaro – If America continues to view global affairs through an American lens—short‑term, reactive, and idealistic—we risk being outmaneuvered by nations that are patient, strategic, and unapologetically ambitious. The world is not static. Influence shifts. Power expands or contracts depending on who is willing to think further ahead...

In This Episode Influence isn't about charisma or control—it's about consistently creating alignment. In this episode, Adi Klevit welcomes back recurring guest Bob Burg to explore what it truly means to be an influencer in business and life. Bob reframes influence as the ability to move people to action through attraction rather than force, emphasizing that genuine influence always begins with focusing on others before advancing ideas. Adi and Bob dive into the distinction between persuasion and manipulation, highlighting why influence must be grounded in intent and authenticity. Bob explains that true persuasion enhances the position of everyone involved, creating win-win outcomes instead of compliance or resistance. The conversation reinforces that influence is not a personality trait, but a skill that can be learned and practiced. The discussion then turns practical, as Bob outlines several of the principles from The Go-Giver Influencer. From mastering emotions to stepping into another person's belief system and setting productive frames, Bob shows how influence can be systematized into repeatable behaviors. Together, Adi and Bob highlight why people skills—supported by structure and awareness—remain irreplaceable, even in an increasingly automated world.

Together, they move beyond surface-level seasonal advice to examine how winter influences the doshas, dhatus (tissues), srotas (channels), and ojas. Dr. Sujatha explains why aligning diet, routine, and mindset with this season is essential for long-term health and resilience. In this episode, you'll learn about: Why winter is considered a prime season for tissue nourishment and rebuilding in Ayurveda Which doshas and dhatus become most vulnerable when winter diet and routines are misaligned How winter impacts srotas (channel) integrity, with a focus on rasavaha srotas (plasma and lymph channels) and medovaha srotas (fat channel) The connection between winter emotions, mental heaviness, and manovaha srotas (mind channel) Influence of winter on ojas, our prime energy reserve, vitality and immunity Balancing nourishment and heaviness with the risk of stagnation in modern lifestyles Practical Ayurvedic food guidelines to support digestion, tissues, and vitality during winter Join the Group Digestive Reset Cleanse – Starting January 23rd, 2026 Ayurvedic cleansing is not about restriction, fasting or punishment it's about restoring balance and flow.

Why do we procrastinate, overspend, or neglect habits we know matter? In this episode, UCLA professor Hal Hershfield reveals how our connection (or lack of connection) to our future selves shapes everything from health and finances to ethics and life satisfaction. Drawing on decades of research, Hal introduces practical tools—including reverse time travel, temptation bundling, and vivid imagination exercises—that help close the gap between intention and action. This conversation is equal parts science, story, and strategy for anyone who wants to live with more agency and hope.Memorable Quotes“It involves thinking about trade-offs between now and later, and thinking about sort of balancing out our happiness and our satisfaction over time between the version of us who exists right now and the version of us who exist in the future.”“People change, and we change much more than we expect to. And the reason I think that that's not something to fear is because it means that we have some control over our lives. It means that we can become different versions of us, we can change aspects of ourselves.”“It may be scary at first to recognize that my life could look different in 10 years than I expect it to be. But the reality that we know from decades of research is that as a human being, we're quite good with grappling with change. We're quite resilient. We have a healthy, what's called ‘psychological immune system,' which basically means we can sort of fend off the changes that we don't want and sort of learn to live with the way that life has become.”“What the research has found is that if we make the process of achieving a goal more fun, more enjoyable, more pleasurable, we're just—and this shouldn't surprise anybody—we're a lot more likely to stick it out.”“If we want to spur action, if we wanna take some agency, we not only need to think about the way that we want things to look differently, but we also need to figure out what's the contrast between now and later? And what are the—and this is really important—what are the overcomeable obstacles?”“There's lots of little things where we can cut corners and, you know, we get some gain in the present, but we might get punished in the future. And what we've found in several papers is that the people who feel connected to their future selves are actually more likely to, to take this sort of more difficult but ethical path.”“That's the irony of procrastination. It hurts while we're procrastinating. It hurts after we procrastinated too…[We can instead think] ‘I don't wanna do it now. There's a good chance I'm not gonna wanna do it in the future, so I might as well just do it now.' Just do it and eliminate all that feeling of negativity along the way.”“We can take anything that feels like it's painful, unpleasant, et cetera, and pair it with something that's a temptation.”Key TakeawaysYou Have Agency.
