Podcasts about interrupting

Summary In this episode, Andy sits down with Dr. Jeremy Pollack, a social-organizational psychologist and founder of Pollack Peacebuilding Systems, author of Wired for Peace: Using 7 Neuroscience-Based Principles to Resolve Conflicts. Jeremy looks at conflict through the lens of the brain and nervous system, which helps explain why disagreements escalate so quickly and why the fixes we reach for often make things worse. Andy and Jeremy talk about why de-escalation has to come before problem-solving, since solutions and stress do not mix. Jeremy walks us through his Sapien Model of six basic psychological needs, giving us a far more useful lens than labeling a stakeholder difficult, defensive, or resistant. You will hear how memory and prediction shape the way we read the person in front of us, what a team learns when its leader consistently avoids conflict, and why changing our experience of conflict requires new experiences, not just new beliefs. Jeremy also shares how this shows up at home, in marriage and parenting. If you're looking for a practical, evidence-based way to handle the conflicts that come with leading, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "The most fruitful relationships from what I've seen at work, at home, et cetera, are those that can weather storms without the real fear of abandonment." "That was pretty interesting to me to see how much of the science is telling us that, like, our brain is mostly a predictive machine." "Anytime we're in an escalated or emotionally charged state, there's something going on in our brains, usually subconsciously, that's tracking a threat or an impediment to our basic needs." "It's de-escalate first because solutions and stress just don't mix." "What I'm feeling right now is not a result of what the person's saying. It's a result of the way my body is responding." "I call it an experiential thumbprint. It's completely unique to you and no one else has your nervous system, and you don't have anyone else's." "If we have a negative experience with someone and we go into a place of fear or pain or anger or something like that, the way that we see them going forward can change very, very quickly, and it's a lot harder to get us to unsee that." "We access memories in edit mode. And so after we retrieve it, and when we write it back, it's not always quite the same thing, and that's always made me question not is that memory correct as much as is it completely correct." "All conflict is an opportunity for learning." "The threat of abandonment is the big thing to really watch for when we're having arguments."

Why do we keep falling into the same patterns, the same struggles, the same destructive habits we promised ourselves we'd left behind? We tell ourselves it's just weakness or a lack of discipline, but what if there's something deeper at work? Michael Muccio, author of Evil's First Breath and a pastor mentored by Zig Ziglar, joins host Avik to explore where evil begins according to the biblical narrative, why pride and fear sit underneath so many destructive cycles, and practical, moment-by-moment ways to interrupt them, starting with gratitude. About the Guest: Michael Muccio is a pastor, former business consultant, and author who was personally mentored by legendary motivational speaker Zig Ziglar. He is the author of Evil's First Breath, The Miracle Exchange: Living the Transformed Life, and America's Battle for Free Enterprise, and has spent four decades helping people in business, ministry, and personal counseling recognize and move through the hidden patterns that hold them back. Key Takeaways: Evil isn't only extreme acts, according to Michael, it shows up in ordinary fear, pride, anger, and the need to be right in everyday relationships. Understanding where a destructive pattern began, rather than just fighting the symptom, can change how you relate to it. Pride and fear often work together, pride can be the mask; underneath is frequently a fear people haven't yet faced. You don't have to wait to feel spiritually ready, the shift can start with a single moment of gratitude, praise, or refocused attention. Real change is rarely one dramatic turning point, it's usually small, repeated choices that build momentum over weeks and months.

Send us Fan MailWhat if the disrespect you experience—or the disrespect you sometimes give—has less to do with the moment and more to do with something happening underneath?In this thought-provoking episode of Self Reflection Podcast, host Lira Ndifon explores The 11 Behaviors of Disrespect by DB Bedford and takes a deeper look at what disrespect can reveal about our emotional world.Rudeness. Interrupting. Condescension. Dismissiveness.On the surface, these behaviors can seem like simple acts of poor character or bad manners. But what happens when we pause before reacting and ask a different question: What is really driving this behavior?Lira explores how behaviors such as rudeness and condescension can sometimes function as emotional defenses—ways of protecting insecurity, shame, fear of rejection, or feelings of inadequacy. Someone who appears overly confident or superior may actually be struggling with a deep fear of not being enough.That doesn't make disrespect acceptable. But understanding the root can change how we respond to it—and how we understand ourselves.The conversation goes deeper into the connection between childhood experiences, emotional wounds, societal conditioning, and the ways these experiences can shape how we communicate and relate to others. When unresolved wounds influence our behavior, we can unknowingly repeat patterns that hurt ourselves and the people around us.At the heart of this conversation is self-reflection.Instead of only asking, “Why did they treat me this way?”, we are invited to also ask:“What is this behavior revealing?”“What wound might be underneath it?”“What am I carrying that still needs healing?”Lira emphasizes the importance of developing internal validation and self-worth rather than constantly seeking confirmation from others. Real growth begins when we become willing to examine our emotional patterns, recognize our wounds, and take responsibility for the healing that follows.This episode is ultimately an invitation to look beneath the behavior—to understand without excusing, to reflect without judging, and to begin breaking patterns that no longer serve us.Because sometimes the behavior we see is only the surface.The real story is underneath.

It's time for the little red chicken's bedtime story — and a reminder from Papa to try not to interrupt. But the chicken can't help herself! Whether the tale is Hansel and Gretel or Little Red Riding Hood or even Chicken Little, she jumps into the story to save its hapless characters. Now it's the little red chicken's turn to tell a story, but will her yawning papa make it to the end without his own kind of interrupting?

Part 4 of The Good Girl Contract series.This is where the series pivots. Parts 1, 2, and 3 were diagnostic in nature - naming the Contract, walking through what happened when we took it into adult intimate relationships, and naming the mirror problem that comes from being trained not to hold our own boundaries, and not to receive other people's.Today we talk about what interrupting the Contract actually looks like. Not in theory. Not from the other side. From inside it, using my own current life as the example.Danielle walks you through what maintaining a boundary can feel like in the body, and show up in life -  the tightness in the chest, the urge to add paragraphs of explanation, the rehearsing of conversations hours after they ended. And she makes clear that holding a line is not the absence of discomfort. It is the presence of discomfort, plus the decision to hold anyway.Danielle shares the substantive reframe that changes what this whole series is for... The Contract's purpose was never really to make us "good". That was the surface story. The mechanism underneath was different. The Contract's purpose was to make us interchangeable - to sand off our specificity so we could slot into the same shape, the same function, as every other woman shaped by the same training.Which means the intervention this series is walking us toward is not to become "bad", or "rebellious", or "naughty". Those framings are still operating inside the Contract's own moral vocabulary. The actual intervention is bigger. It is to be named. To become so specifically, unmistakably yourself that you cannot be substituted for another woman.And ultimately, Danielle would rather be one person's shot of whiskey than everyone's cup of tea. That is what this episode is about.Support: If you are in Australia and need to talk to someone, 1800RESPECT (1800 737 732) is available 24/7.

Editor Jon Fine joins GG Hawkins to discuss shaping The Revisionist, a dialogue-driven drama directed by Alex Vlack and starring Alison Brie, André Holland, and Dustin Hoffman. Fine explains how the cast's performances transformed the tone of the script, how music and abrupt sonic interruptions helped place viewers inside a writer's creative process, and how restructuring the film made its shifting layers of fiction and reality clearer. He also shares his Premiere Pro workflow, his approach to testing editorial ideas, and why emerging filmmakers should learn by making their own projects. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guest Jon Fine discuss... How Fine's longtime creative partnership with director Alex Vlack led to The Revisionist Discovering unexpected humor and tragedy in the actors' interpretations of the script Finding a consistent tone across four distinct central performances The creative advantages of having an editor and director work together in the same room Using Philip Klein's score to evoke the interior world of Alison Brie's writer character Interrupting music with hard cuts to create surprise, humor, and playfulness Organizing scenes, takes, transcripts, and searchable dialogue in Adobe Premiere Pro Building a fast first assembly that closely followed the original screenplay Restructuring the film to make the writer's influence over the unfolding story more apparent Using producer, audience, and actor feedback throughout the iterative editing process Balancing the ensemble while keeping Alison Brie's character as the story's emotional anchor Finding usable moments within Dustin Hoffman's improvisations Why limited locations, a small cast, and dialogue-heavy scenes can benefit independent filmmakers Auditioning editorial ideas quickly instead of becoming overly attached to one version Creating an editing environment with natural light, plants, instruments, and opportunities to step outside What traditional editors can learn from filmmakers cutting polished videos on their phones Why the most effective way to learn editing is to make films with friends Memorable Quotes: “I still think the best way to make a film is to be in the room with someone.” “We wanted it to feel like you were inside of the head of a writer. You're in her mind.” “I'm really in favor of just auditioning ideas and trying things.” “I think the best way to learn is in practice.” Guests: Jon Fine Resources: The Revisionist on IMDb Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web: No Film School Facebook: No Film School on Facebook Twitter: No Film School on Twitter YouTube: No Film School on YouTube Instagram: No Film School on Instagram

In this solo episode of Referrals Done Right, Scott Grates challenges one of the most accepted practices in sales. He argues that interruption marketing has become increasingly ineffective in a world filled with spam filters, caller ID, and endless distractions. Instead of chasing strangers through cold calls and purchased leads, Scott makes the case for becoming the person prospects actively seek out.Scott shares a practical framework built around two powerful ideas: personal branding and relationship marketing. He explains how creating valuable content, strengthening your digital presence, and intentionally investing in meaningful relationships can build trust long before a sales conversation begins. Rather than asking for referrals, he encourages listeners to earn them by consistently serving others and becoming someone people naturally want to recommend.In This Episode:• Why interruption marketing is becoming more expensive and less effective.• How personal branding helps prospects trust you before they ever meet you.• Simple ways to create content that answers your customers' biggest questions.• Why a small circle of intentional relationships creates more opportunity than a large list of cold contacts.• Three practical actions you can take this week to become easier to find, easier to trust, and easier to refer.---Scott Grates' Links:The Magnetic Niche - https://mailchi.mp/wonderlabstrategy/findyournicheReferrals Done Right - https://www.referralsdoneright.orgReferrals Done Right FB Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/296359076662332Scott Grates Website - https://www.scottgrates.comLove Living Local  - https://www.instagram.com/lovelivinglocal315Scott's FB - https://www.facebook.com/scott.grates.1Scott's - https://www.instagram.com/scottgratesTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@scott.grates

Before you hit "play," make sure you've listened to Part 1 of the series!You've probably heard that changing your thoughts changes your life. But what if your thoughts aren't actually where change begins? There's no doubt that mindset work plays an important role in coaching, but lasting transformation starts by interrupting the patterns beneath your thinking.This episode is the second in my 6-part series teaching you the Life Mastery Method. Last week, we explored the question: Can people really change? Can someone who repeats patterns over and over truly transform their life? The answer is yes, and this week, we're focusing specifically on interrupting those patterns that are keeping you—or your clients—stuck. I've also created a companion worksheet to help you follow along with this episode, which you can download here.Our brain, emotions, nervous system, and behaviors all live in patterns, and some of the biggest changes in ourselves and in society come from interrupting those patterns. I see it in the women I work with who are prioritizing their well-being, changing relationship dynamics, and stepping into greater financial independence. I see it in the men I work with who are allowing themselves to cry and fully experience their emotions. Changing patterns is possible, and learning to interrupt the patterns that no longer serve you is one of the missing keys to the greater experience of life we're all craving.Today, I'll walk you through four different ways to interrupt your patterns so you can experience more peace, greater alignment with your values, and a deeper sense of who you are and your worth. Next week, we'll go even deeper into the emotional side of the Life Mastery Method and discover why learning to work with your emotions is one of the most powerful ways to grow.You can read the full show notes here.What you'll learn:The way I teach mindset work and why it's likely different from what you've encountered beforeHow patterns aren't inherently negative and why strengthening healthy patterns is part of growthWhy mindset work and pattern interruption are connected, but why mindset alone isn't enoughWhy using thinking to avoid your feelings keeps you stuck and how to interrupt that patternHow life mastery isn't possible unless we learn to connect with our emotional selvesListen to the rest of the Life Mastery Method series:Part 1 episode + worksheetConnect with Molly ClaireMaster Coach Training Application OpenGet the book: She Rises: Insights and Wisdom from the Women of The Masterful Coach CollectiveMolly's Website: MollyClaire.ComHave a question or thoughts about the podcast?

Most fundraising events are planned like logistics problems. Rick Toone plans them like Hollywood shoots them.Rick spent 20 years in Los Angeles as an art director and lighting designer for A-list clients — Ridley Scott, David Fincher, over 50 Super Bowl commercials, an Emmy nomination, Whitney Houston's first lighting designer. Then he moved to Mexico, joined a nonprofit, and grew its gala from $70K to $300K in three years. Now he runs a company called Run of Show Playbook, and this episode is a walk through the Hollywood-trained framework he applies to nonprofit galas.In this episode: why every gala needs a script before the venue, menu, or flowers get booked, why you should never say "thank you" at your event (and when to say it instead), the three types of donors in every room — habit, heart, and head — and how to write for all three, why the audience is the hero of the story and not the mission, how the best interruptions come from the water-cooler conversations your staff has that never make it into the messaging, and the difference between telling a story and building a messaging arc.Plus: what a 56-take Kevin Costner beer commercial can teach you about scripting your next paddle raise.Chapters:00:00 Intro01:01 Living the Dream in Mexico05:18 The Power of Listening06:51 From Hollywood to Fundraising11:09 The Importance of Messaging15:48 Interrupting the Loop in Fundraising21:05 The Importance of Audience Engagement22:44 Balancing Heroes: Audience vs Mission26:19 The Role of Impact in Fundraising28:27 Stories from Hollywood: Lessons Learned31:54 The Value of Honest Feedback and Audience Understanding

A few months ago, I came across an incredible video. It's the early 70s, and a local Chicago talk show is interviewing a doctor who wrote a sex education book that millions of people across the country were reading … unaware that it was full of wildly incorrect and frankly homophobic claims about homosexuals. The interview is going smoothly until suddenly a man jumps up from the studio audience and does what nobody else had dared — he confronts the doctor about his misinformation and demands he explain himself. That man in the audience was Murray Edelman, and I'm very excited to say that he's my guest this week on The Sewers of Paris.Here's the video — jump to 9:25 to see Murray's interruption: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PChFM8kAjhw A quick reminder that I have a new video up on YouTube about the long, messy fight for marriage equality, check that out at https://YouTube.com/mattbaume.

In this episode, we answer a listener's question about helping a 13-year-old who struggles with confidence. We share practical tools parents can use to help kids develop genuine self-belief by focusing on what they can control, how they respond to setbacks, and the habits that create resilience over time.We discuss:Why internal confidence is stronger than confidence built on praise or external validation.How confidence struggles show up through body language, breathing, and self-talk.Interrupting negative thought spirals with one simple question: "Who's in control?"Building confidence through small, meaningful choices that create autonomy.Using an experiment mindset so mistakes become feedback instead of failures.Helping kids create their "most confident self" through intentional breath, posture, and inner dialogue.How an alter ego can help young athletes and students perform with greater confidence.Why parents are the greatest model of confidence—and how letting your child watch you recover from mistakes teaches resilience.Whether you're raising an athlete, a student, or simply want to help your child become more resilient, this episode provides practical strategies that build confidence from the inside out.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explain the biology and psychology of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and describe the neural circuitry behind repetitive "thought-action loops," including why compulsive actions actually strengthen the underlying obsessions rather than relieve them. I discuss the most effective treatments for OCD, including exposure-based cognitive behavioral therapy and SSRIs, and explain what the research shows about how these compare when used alone versus together. Finally, I describe a specific clinical protocol in which patients are guided into states of anxiety while learning to suppress compulsive responses, retraining the brain to break the OCD cycle.

One thing I see in so many of us highly sensitive folk is that we're experts at consistently overestimating our capacity. When we overestimate capacity, the outcome is written long before we land there: we fall in a heap; exhausted and burnt out. Why oh why do we repeat this cycle? Well ... for one, the world kind of demands it. So what do we do if we want OUT of that cycle and to finally honour the truth of our capacity? Join me for this episode of SelfKind - a podcast for highly sensitive people - where I'm exploring this question (and, no, I don't have all the answers! But I have plenty of questions and food for thought!).About your host, Erica WebbErica Webb is a registered counsellor, somatic exercise coach, yoga teacher and highly sensitive person (also diagnosed AuDHD).

Jeff Miller Download Audio Transcript 00:36Open up your Bibles with me please to the book of 1 Corinthians and chapter 13 While you're turning there as is our custom I'm going to ask that you would please pray for me to communicate God's word clearly and accurately as I should and I will pray for you to have a heart open to receive what it is the Lord wants to teach us from his word today All right? Let's just take a moment and pray. Father, just a few minutes ago we were talking about being watchful in prayer. Father, make us watchful for the fruit that will come as your word is applied. The radical difference There will be when your people in this church apply what it is you've told us in this passage we're looking at today. Let your Spirit be our teacher. Father, open our hearts up. Remove any distractions from our hearts and minds. Help us to really dial in right now. We ask in Jesus' name.02:03And all of God's people said, Amen. Amen. 1 Corinthians chapter 13. If you've been with us through this study in 1 Corinthians, you've seen that Paul was going through problem after problem after problem after problem in the church. This church had a lot of problems. There were cliques and there were lawsuits There was sexual sin, and there was people insisting on their rights, and they made the Lord's Supper a fiasco. But really, if you wanted to sum up chapters 1 through 12, it really all boils down to one thing. Paul's saying, your lack of love for one another is the problem.03:04They just didn't love each other the way that God has called us to love. And because that's the problem, now we get to chapter 13 where we get to the solution. It's love. It's love. And some of you might be like, ah, yes, yes, yes. 1 Corinthians 13, I know this one. This is where Paul writes the wedding poem.03:34But this passage is used a lot at weddings, but I want you to understand, Paul wasn't in the middle of addressing the church's problems and was like, yeah, we've got to figure out this spiritual gift thing because you're all messed up. Oh, I just had an idea for a wedding poem. I better write this down while it's fresh. It's not a wedding poem.04:00Pastor Taylor talked last week about how the Corinthian church was so messed up about spiritual gifts. And Paul's like, no, no, no, I'm going to show you a more excellent way. Here's the more excellent way. The heart of ministry. The heart of using spiritual gifts. It's not talent.04:30It's not who works the hardest. It's not who puts in the most hours. It's not who's the most creative. The heart of ministry is love. And if you're sitting here today and you're like, yeah, love's not really my thing. Well, it's God's thing. And if you're like, well, you know, I'm just not really a loving person.05:00Well, then you better get on board. Because love is at the top, according to God. When the fruit of the Spirit is listed in Galatians 5, what's first? It's love, right? Paul tells us in Romans 13 that love fulfills the law. Jesus in John 13 said, Do you know? Oh, come on. I gave you so many hints. It's love. It's love. We've got to get on board. We have a little problem, though, in our language. We use the word love so generically, right? We say love for everything, right? But it doesn't all mean the same thing, right?06:00I can say I love hockey and I love my dog and I love my wife, but I don't love all those things the same way. You see, the Greek was a more specific language. They had different words for love. One word was eros. That's where we get the word erotic. That's the hubba hubba, husband and wife kind of love. Another word for love is, That's friendship love. Like Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love. But the grandest word for love we're going to be talking about today is agape love. Agape. Agape is self-sacrificing. Agape is you ahead of me.07:02And understand that love isn't about feeling. All right? Feelings come, sure. And feelings go. But love isn't about feeling. Love is about doing. Right? Did Jesus love? Did Jesus love? How do we know? Everything from washing the disciples' feet to laying down his life on the cross, everything he did was an experience.07:30of love.07:35So how about you?07:38Are you a loving person?07:45Oh, in church we certainly idealize it.07:49Right?07:52But do we actually do it?07:56So on your outline today, how do I love?08:00I want to encourage you to not let, look, okay.08:04Because some of you have told me that you like to try to fill in the blanks ahead of time.08:10All right, fess up. Who does that? Raise your hand. Who tries to fill in the blanks? Okay.08:14Come on, this is a safe place to confess, and it's also a good place to repent.08:18I'm going to ask you to please not do that, because you're going to look at the outline today, and be like, oh, this one's easy. Love, love, love, love, love, love.08:25I'm going to ask you to hold on, hold on, all right?08:28and just walk in step with me. Will you do that? All right. So how do I love? In this passage we're looking, it's a very familiar passage, and he just talks about two things. There's two things here, right? And the first one is love absent. Love absent. Look at the first three verses. He says, if I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love.09:01I'm a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.09:08And if I have prophetic powers and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains but have not love, I am nothing.09:22If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned I have not love.09:31I gain nothing.09:36You see this list here, what he's doing.09:38He's mentioning certain spiritual gifts here.09:42Did you see that?09:43And what he's doing is he's giving exaggerated examples of using spiritual gifts.09:51Like using them to the max.09:54But he says, if I use spiritual gifts, even to their peak performance, if I use them, but I don't genuinely love people, it results in, you see it? Nothing. It's not worth a thing if you don't love. See, the Corinthians, like us, so many times want the gifts of the Spirit, but not the fruit of the Spirit.10:24Paul says anything done without love is useless. Look at this example list of spiritual gifts. First of all, he talks about tongues. We're going to spend in a couple weeks quite a bit of time talking about what the spiritual gift of speaking in tongues is about. But notice here, he says, if I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, like what's angel language? What is that? Well, biblically, there is no such thing.10:54You see throughout these verses, He's exaggerating everything. He's saying, even if I speak a language that they only speak in heaven. He says, even if I did that, but I don't genuinely love people, it's just noise. It's just like banging a gong over and over.11:24How would you last? Probably not very long, right? And somebody would say, well, what happened in church? And you would say, nothing happened in church today. Well, there was some great music. And then the pastor got up and thought he was on the gong show. It was ridiculous. Next, he talks about prophecy.11:54Oh, by the way, he says prophecy is the greatest gift. In chapter 14, verse 1, we talked about this before. Prophecy literally means speak before. It's speaking God's truth before people. We cannot possibly overstate the magnitude of what happens when the Word of God is proclaimed.12:24I was reading about preaching this past week, and one preacher put it this way. He says, when the Word of God is proclaimed, we are bringing eternity into time. I was like, wow, wow, that's what's happening. But to get up and proclaim the Word of God, motivated by self-glory or fame or pride, but not motivated by loving people, it's nothing.12:54Next gift he talks about is knowledge. Do you notice the exaggeration? Here it is again. He says, understand all mysteries and all knowledge. More exaggeration, right? Like, who understands all knowledge? Who understands all mysteries? Like, what do you mean by mysteries? Well, the mystery was just things unknown to man, things only God knows. He's like, even if I knew Every single thing that God himself knows. Things no one else knows. You see, church, you can be highly educated. You can know the Bible frontwards and backwards. But if you don't love people, it's a big nothing.13:55All right, next gift, he talks about his faith. Do you see that? He says, if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains. Does that sound familiar? Faith moving mountains. Jesus talked about that. Matthew chapter 17, Matthew chapter 21. You know, it's the person that's like, you know, I have all faith. I believe. I believe for it. I claim the promise. I believe for it.14:24I just don't love those church people. Paul says you're nothing. And then he talks about the gift of giving. Again, exaggeration, hyperbole. He says I could give away every single thing that I own. And we do know that giving can be motivated by man's applause, right? Matthew 6. Giving can be motivated by guilt or peer pressure or obligation.14:57But if your giving isn't motivated by love, it gets you nothing. Even, even giving your body to be burned. You're like, time out, time out. Who gives their body to be burned? Like, what other motivation could somebody have for giving up their life for someone?15:24or for a cause or... Well, you could ask the Muslims. Because in Islam, dying as a martyr is the only sure way to heaven. They tell these young men, yeah, if you give your life to the cause of Islam, when you get to heaven, you're going to have 70 virgins to enjoy for all of eternity. Do you think they're motivated by love? So see, you can be a martyr.15:56But it doesn't necessarily have to be motivated by love, does it? Here's the bottom line with these first three verses. Paul's saying it doesn't matter what you do in ministry. It doesn't matter how well you do it. Because if you don't love people, you're wasting your time. To what degree? Well, notice in verse 1, he says if you don't love, you produce nothing.16:23Right? Just a clanging cymbal. You produce nothing. Verse 2, he says, if you don't love, you are nothing. And in verse 3, he says, if you don't love, you gain nothing. You've wasted your time. Since this is true, we better understand how to love people.16:53Love Absent. Secondly, let's talk about Love Active. You didn't start filling in your outline yet, did you? Like getting ahead? You didn't start getting ahead, did you? Okay. All right, Love Active. Love Active. Like, okay. A lot of people have different ideas about what love means, what it looks like, how to do it. What does the Bible say? Well, I get some great news for you. There's no ambiguity here whatsoever.17:23Actually, there are 15 words and phrases here that describe love. All right? 15 sub-point sermon. When's the last time you had one of those? All right? Look at verses 4 through 7. He says, love is patient and kind. Love does not envy or boast.17:53It does not insist on its own way. It is not irritable or resentful. It does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Yep.18:27That's not really the point though, is it? The point's not FYI. The point is not for you to walk out here today to say, well, now I have a better understanding of how the Bible defines love. That's not the point. The point is, is this how you love? The point is, Does this list describe you? Does this list describe me? And isn't it just so ironic that church can be the hardest place to love people? Do you notice that? Sometimes it is. Why is that?19:27Well, we're not all BFFs, right? We're just not. We're a family. We're a body. It's easy to love the people that you like. But God allows difficult people in the church.19:53And difficult people are here to test you. To see whether you really love or not. Do you? We'll find out when you encounter somebody that's hard to love. So, here's what we're doing with your outline. You know, 1 John 4 and verse 8 says, God is love.20:26In Ephesians chapter 5 and verse 1, says, therefore be imitators of God as beloved children.20:35So, if God is love, and we are called to imitate God, that means we are to imitate God's love.20:51So your outline here this morning is more of a test. And this is going to show you where you need to grow in love. Since God is love, and since we are to imitate God, here's what we're going to do as we go through, and we're just going to spend a moment on each of these.21:21in the Bible, you should be able to put your name in the blank. And if you truly love like God, the passage should still make sense. Right? So here's what I want you to do. As we go through these, I want you to write your name on the blank. And I want you to hold on to this outline. I want you to keep it as a bookmark in your Bible. And I want this to be a test that you give yourself to say, Does this describe me? Is this how I love people in the church? Alright? It's going to get uncomfortable. But we're committed to this. Right? Put your name down. First it says, love is patient. Put your name down. Can you say that? Can you say, Jeff is patient?22:23Is that you? Because you realize some people just require more patience. Have you noticed? Have you noticed that there are people that we deal with in the church are like, they should have gotten it by now. They should have gotten it six months ago and they still haven't gotten it. Are you a patient person? Patience means I don't write them off.22:51You know what? I'm done. Patience says, you know what? I'm committed to them. Put your name down. Jeff is patient. Can you say that? Secondly, love is kind. Put your name. Jeff is kind. Are you a kind person? The Greek root for the word kind is literally It's always trying to benefit others. Always looking to bless others. Kindness is not tearing people down. It's looking to build up and encourage. That's what kindness is. Can you say that? Jeff is kind. Put your name in there. Next. Love does not envy.23:51Jeff does not envy.23:56We saw last week in verse 31, Paul says, you're coveting the showy gifts.24:05Paul's like, you just want to look like you're the most spiritual person at the church.24:13They had a problem with envy.24:17So let me ask you, how are you doing with envy?24:23Like when somebody in church is talked about, and somebody says, wow, they are such a godly example. And you hear somebody being honored at church, and ooh, that just rubs you the wrong way. And you're like, they're nothing special. Jeff doesn't envy. You know why? Because love looks at people's gifts.24:50different. Love is glad when someone is used by God. Not critical. Love is cheering the rest of the team on. Not envying. Jeff doesn't envy. Next. Love does not boast. Put your name in. Can you say that? Jeff does not boast. This could literally be translated blowhard boasting. It's the person that does and says everything to make himself look good. Everything they do, everything they say, put the spotlight on me. Do you see how awesome and godly and great and perfect and biggest, best, most, goodest I am? Always wanting the attention, always wanting the accolades, You see, envy, wants what other people have. Boasting is to try to make people envy what you have. And love does neither. Right? Can you say that? Jeff does not boast. Next, love is not arrogant. Put your name in the blank. Write it down. Write it down. You're like, I haven't signed my name this many times since I bought a house. Right? Write your name down. Can you say that? Jeff is not arrogant. Arrogance is just the force behind boasting. Right? It's that belief that I'm better than everyone else. I'm the most spiritual person here. But you know, when you truly love other people, you're not going to exalt yourself over them. You're like, you know what?26:50I'm nothing special. I'm a saved sinner. Just like the rest of you. I'm not on any higher plane or exalted status. We're all in the same place here. Sinners saved by grace. So what do I possibly have to be arrogant about? Put your name in the blank. Can you say that? Jeff is not arrogant. Next, love is not rude.27:21Jeff is not rude.27:26That's just treating or speaking to people with disdain.27:32Right?27:32We talked about the rudeness of the Corinthians, right?27:35They had their potluck and people would show up early.27:41And they brought a tuna new casserole or whatever to share with everyone.27:45But they'd show up early and they'd hog it all down themselves.27:48And then people would come later and there wasn't anything for them. Do you know what that's called? Rude! That's rude! And love is not rude. So Jeff should not be rude. And you should not be rude. Right? Lots of ways to be rude. There's lots of ways. Interrupting people. Just talking right over them. Making sure you get in your jerky comment. Go zing them! Right?28:18Just being dismissive. Love isn't rude. Next, love does not insist on its own way. Can you say that and it still makes sense? It's convicting, isn't it? You think the only reason I'm sweating is because it's 120 degrees?28:51Jeff does not insist on getting his own way.28:59That's the biggest problem in church.29:04We're all self-centered.29:06We're all self-centered.29:08I want everything how I prefer.29:10Okay?29:11Church will be great as long as I get everything that I prefer.29:14The music, the kids' ministry, how money is spent, etc., etc., No, no, no, no. Jeff doesn't insist on getting his own way. Love says, look, I want what's best for everyone. I trust the leadership to make decisions. And if things are decided at the church, even if it's not my preference, I just want what's best for everyone. That's what love says. I was thinking about these characteristics, by Jesus, specifically this one, you realize Jesus never did anything just for himself. Did you ever notice that? Everything Jesus did was in perfect submission to his Father and to benefit and bless other people. Jesus never took a day where he's like, you know what, today's about me. I'm having a me day. I'm having a mental health day. I'm going to the spa. Jesus never did that.30:19Jeff does not insist on getting his own way. Next, love is not irritable. Can you say that? Put your name in the blank, write it down, write your name. Jeff is not irritable. This term, irritable, it's actually an explosive term. It's talking about the outbursts.30:48it comes when you're annoyed to the point of breaking. Do you know what I'm talking about?30:56Do you know what I'm talking about?30:58You're annoying me now. Do you know what I'm talking about?31:02I'm getting a little irritated.31:03Do you know what I'm talking about?31:05Where you're just like annoyed and you just keep eating it and annoyed, you just keep eating it and then find like, enough!31:11I've had enough!31:13It's explosive, right?31:15That's what this word means.31:17Like, irritable. Irritable. And some people just, they're personally offended by everything. Some people are just personally offended by everything. What will offend me today? They just roll out of bed on my way to church. What's going to offend me at church today? Is it going to be something said in a sermon? Is it going to be something said in a conversation where the ironing board used to be?31:50What's going to offend me today? Just constantly looking for something to irritate them. But no, no, no, no. Love doesn't do that. Love doesn't take up an offense. Love doesn't get irritated. I care too much about these people to take issue with everything. Jeff isn't irritable.32:18Next. Love is not resentful. Put your name down. Jeff is not resentful. By the way, your name. I keep saying Jeff because that's my name. I better not see your outline where it says Jeff down. Your name. Okay, so like irritable is the explosive term. Resentful is the slow burn term. Resentful. It's just, it's holding a grudge.32:47That's what it is. Actually, in the Greek, it was an accounting term. That's why some Bibles translate this, love keeps no record of wrong. Jeff is not resentful. Jeff should never keep a record of wrong. Can you say that? Oh, we're so good, right? Our memory is terrible.33:17except when it comes to other people's mistakes. Then our memories are great. Right? I don't like her. Why? Because this one time she said this. I don't like him. Why? Because this one time, you know, back in 1987, he did this. I will never forgive her for doing that. It's resentful. You know, somebody, that person could have been having a bad day.33:46The whole thing could have been a complete misunderstanding, but no, no, no, no. I got that in the vault now. All right? I'm resentful. I'm resentful. But love keeps no record of wrong. Do you know why? Do you know why? Do you know who else doesn't keep record of wrong? God. What is it? Jeremiah 31, Hebrews 8, a promise so glorious. He said, in both testaments. God has promised under Jesus Christ He will remember our sins no more. And if there's ever anybody who is justified to keep a record of wrongs against me, it would be God. That because of Jesus Christ, when you receive Him, when you believe in Jesus Christ, when you accept Him as your Lord and Savior, He takes your sin away.34:48And he keeps no record of it. God keeps no record of sin. Love says, Jeff shouldn't either. Right? Can you say that? Next, love does not rejoice at wrongdoing. Jeff does not rejoice at wrongdoing. You're like, rejoice at wrongdoing?35:16Who does that? Everybody does that. We take pleasure. We take pleasure in other people's sins. Like, what do you mean? But just imagine if one of the leaders of our church was caught in some sin. Oh, you're going to see some nastiness come out of people if that would happen. One is you're going to see, People comparing themselves to that leader. You're like, well, I'm not a great person, but I'm not as bad as him. Or the gossip, right? The leader was caught in some sin. There'd be so much gossip. Hey, did you hear what he did? Did you hear about that? There'd be so much gossip going around about that. We delight in other people's sin.36:16Oh, and the slander. That guy, you know, Gossip's ugly cousin, slander. Like, oh, did you hear what he did? Oh, he's not so high and mighty now, is he? Oh, he, oh, leader in the church, huh? Oh, look at him now. Love doesn't rejoice at wrongdoing. So Jeff should not rejoice at wrongdoing because if something offends God, why would I take joy in that? Love is never happy at someone else failing.36:46But love rejoices with the truth. Jeff rejoices with the truth. Dishonesty leads to distrust. Relationships must be built on truth. Can you say that? You rejoice with the truth. You rejoice with honesty because dealing in truth is God's way. And homestretch here.37:16Love Bears All Things. Jeff Bears All Things. Your name Bears All Things. What does that mean? Bears All Things. Literally, the word means to cover. That's literally what the Greek word means. It's covering. It's covering someone's failures and covering someone's sins. Now, yes, when someone is in sin, we talked all about this, we address sin.37:46But what we do not do is parade it around for other people. Like we tell our kids, don't tattle. Right? Don't tattle. Why? Because love doesn't do that. Right? When I was a kid, you know what we called tattling? See who remembers. Being a narc. How many people remember being a narc? Okay? Don't be a narc. All right?38:16we address sin, but we don't parade it around. All right, next, love believes all things. Jeff believes all things. Your name believes all things. But that doesn't mean you're gullible. She'll believe anything. Like, hey, the moon's made out of ham. Like, oh, didn't know that. Like, no, no, that's not what it means.38:46It means believing the best about a person. That's what it means. It's believing the best about a person. It means not being suspicious. That means if a comment is made, if a comment is made that can be taken one of two ways, you take it the good way. That's what it means. I believe the best about them. I don't believe that he said that to hurt my feelings.39:15I believe the best about them. That's what it means. Does that describe you? Or like you hear some rumor, right? Like somebody's like, hey, you know, last Thursday I heard, I was at Walmart and the Browns were in Walmart and I heard Taylor cussing out his wife. I would say, I don't believe that. I don't believe that. Why? Because I believe the best about Taylor.39:47That's what love does. Like, I know this guy. He wouldn't do that. Love believes the best about people, right? Negative example, Job's friends. Remember we went through Job a while back. Remember them? They come to comfort Job and they're like, so you're having a bad day, are you? Well, you must be a terrible sinner. No, love believes.40:15best. Love hopes all things. Jeff hopes all things. Your name hopes all things. Can you say that? It's never giving up on a person. That's what it means. It's never giving up on a person. Oh, he messed up again. I'm disappointed again. Love remembers. Jeff remembers. You remembers. We are all works.40:45in progress. Every single one of us works in progress. And love says, he'll get there. He'll get there. I'm not giving up hope. And then finally, love endures all things. Jeff endures all things. Your name endures all things.41:18Can you say that? That means we survive. The relationship that we have survives even terrible times. That's what that means. With all this patience and kindness and selflessness, you know, the hard times are going to come.41:48And when the dust settles, I'll still be here.41:56No matter what happens, listen, I am for you.42:04No matter what.42:06Because love never lets go.42:13Our worship team would make their way back up to the platform. You might be looking at your list right now. And like me, you look at some areas here. You're like, wow, this doesn't quite describe me the way that I wish that it did. What do I do about that?42:43that are like, meh, meh. I guess I gotta try harder, huh? No. No. Because you can't, look, when it comes to love, you can't fake love. But you also can't muster it up. There's only one thing you can do with love.43:14And that's funnel it. It has to come from God. So I want you to hang on to this. Because wherever you are deficient, you need to take that to God. And I'd like us to do that right now. If you just bow your heads for a moment, please.43:43Just bow your heads. And I want to pray a prayer that is for all of us. Father, we look at your word, we look at this list that under inspiration of the Holy Spirit, Paul wrote to the Corinthians and ultimately to us. We look at this list, Father, and there's so many ways that we fall short. So many ways we should be doing so much better. So many ways we have completely blown it.44:15But Father, we thank you that this list describes you. You haven't given up on us. You continue to pursue and change us. Father, you have called us to imitate you. But the only way we can have love at all because you first loved us.44:48So Father, I pray not just for myself, but for my brothers and sisters here, for those who are streaming or listening to the podcast later.44:56I pray, Father, that we would take this list before you and take an honest assessment and cry out to you for the kind of heart change that only your Holy Spirit can bring about.45:13And Father, might we be a church where more and more our testimony is.45:25We're not perfect and we've got a lot of growing to do, but we are committed to loving one another.45:34We ask this in Jesus' holy and precious name.45:38Amen.

10:30am - Zach Jones and Derek Kramer discuss if goal calls or just in general are broadcasts better without announcers talking over the play

Most relationships don't sour because of one big moment. They slowly drift because of patterns that never change.A sarcastic comment here. A lack of appreciation there. Avoiding hard conversations. Interrupting. Assuming the worst. Being distracted when someone is trying to connect.Over time, these repeated habits create repeated outcomes.The good news? The same principle works in reverse. Healthy relationships are built through healthy habits practiced consistently over time.If there is a habit that is hurting one of your relationships, consider these four steps:See It. Self-awareness is the starting point for change. You can't change what you refuse to acknowledge.Ask yourself:"What am I doing consistently that may be creating distance instead of connection?"Decide. Every habit has a cost. When we choose to keep an unhealthy pattern, we are also choosing the consequences that come with it.Ask yourself if the habit is worth what it is costing you.Replace It. Don't just remove a habit—replace it.If you want to stop criticizing, replace it with encouragement.If you want to stop interrupting, replace it with listening.If you want to stop assuming, replace it with asking questions.The goal isn't simply to stop a behavior. The goal is to replace it with one that strengthens the relationship.Invite Others In. Change happens faster with accountability. The people who care about us often see our blind spots more clearly than we do.Ask someone you trust:"Would you help me notice when I slip back into this habit?"A healthier relationship rarely requires a completely different person. More often, it requires a different pattern.Be sure to check out this week's episode of the Relationshifts podcast, where we wrap up our Crossing Generational Lines series. We discuss why what we often call a generational gap is really a relational gap—and how stronger relationships begin when we recognize and replace the habits that create distance.When you shift from habits that hurt to behaviors that help, it will make a difference.Larry

In Episode 135 of High Performance Parenting, Greg and Jacquie Francis break down why most homes don't suddenly become chaotic overnight.

I'm going to describe three women in this episode.And I need you to be honest with yourself about which one makes your stomach tighten.Not the one that sounds the worst.The one that feels a little too familiar.Because that recognition is not the diagnosis.It's the doorway.In this episode, I'm breaking down the three money identity roles I see show up in women over and over again.The Survivor.The Prover.And The Avoider.These are not personality types.They are protection strategies.They are the roles your nervous system created to keep you safe around money, worth, pressure, survival, fear, and uncertainty.And most women are running them without even realizing it.We talk about:✨ Why the Survivor struggles to feel safe even when money is in the bank✨ How the Prover ties achievement and income to self-worth✨ Why the Avoider disconnects from money completely✨ The nervous system patterns underneath overworking, scarcity, and avoidance✨ Why awareness alone does not create transformation✨ The hidden cost of protection mode✨ The difference between surviving and thriving✨ How identity patterns quietly shape your financial realityThis episode goes deep into the emotional side of money.Not budgeting.Not strategy.Identity.Because you cannot out earn a belief that says you are not enough.And you cannot create expansion while your nervous system is still trying to survive.I also share more about The Unblocked Money Reset, my free training designed to help women interrupt the deeper identity patterns shaping their relationship with money, abundance, safety, and self-worth.Because naming the pattern is awareness.Interrupting the pattern is transformation.✨ Ready to go deeper?Join The Unblocked Woman Collective™ and step into the work of identity, nervous system regulation, emotional safety, abundance, and becoming magnetic from the inside out.If this episode resonated with you, send it to a woman who needs to know there is nothing wrong with her.She's just running an old pattern.

In this episode of the podcast, 585, I talk about something that has come up in conversations several times over the past few weeks with different friends and colleagues: the challenge of photographing familiar places. There's a tendency in photography to believe the next great image exists somewhere else. So we travel to new cities, another country, or another landscape. We just want something new, but some of the most meaningful photographic work comes from returning to the same places over and over again until they begin to reveal something deeper. Familiarity can make us stop paying attention. We move through our neighborhoods, parks, and daily routines sort of zoned out and not really paying attention. As photographer, we become convinced there is nothing new left to see. Yet if we let it, the camera has a remarkable ability to slow us down and reconnect us with the ordinary. When we revisit a location repeatedly, our attention shifts away from novelty and toward nuance. We can start to see the changing light, the shift of the seasons, weather, mood, gesture, rhythm, and timing of a place. Over time, the work stops being about documenting a place and becomes more about understanding our relationship to it. The photographs become less about where it was taken and more about how we see it and feel about it.

Sitting on the edge of the pool before my Ironman 70.3 swim time trial, I felt every excuse in the book flood my mind — and I had to make a choice: jump in or talk myself out of it forever. In this episode, I break down exactly what happens in your head when you've been away from something important, and how to shut those voices down before they cost you everything. If you know you've been putting something off, this one is for you. Key Takeaways The longer you think about doing something hard, the less likely you are to actually do it — so stop thinking and just jump in. Interrupting your negative thought pattern by literally telling yourself to stop can break the downward spiral before it takes over. Accepting your current baseline — no matter how far back you feel — is the only way to move forward with clarity and focus. The voices telling you that you're tired, slow, or behind will quit if you outlast them — they want comfort more than you do. Starting over is not starting from zero. Your experience, wisdom, and insight don't disappear just because you took a break. Action Steps The next time you catch yourself spiraling into excuses, say your own name out loud and tell yourself to stop — interrupt the pattern before it takes root. Write down your honest current baseline in the area of your life you've been avoiding, and commit to working from where you are, not where you wish you were. Do the one thing you've been putting off today without testing the water first — no toe-dipping, no second-guessing, just jump in and let momentum do its work. Notable Quote The voices that want you to quit will themselves quit — if you can just keep going long enough to outlast them.

You set up your 401(k) contributions years ago. They go out of your paycheck automatically, before you even see the money. You've been doing this for years. And you've been telling yourself you're saving for retirement. You're not saving. You're investing. Automatically, often without much thought, into a market-linked account where the value can drop without you withdrawing a single dollar. https://www.youtube.com/live/ISSLntYMpig That distinction isn't just semantic. It explains why so many high-earning, responsible people feel like they're not making real financial traction even when they're doing everything they were told to do. I've worked with clients across this exact transition for years. And what Bruce Wehner and I talked through on the podcast this week gets to the root of it. Not which products to use. The order. Save automatically. Invest intentionally. Get that order right and everything changes.

Key Takeaways Saving and investing are not the same thing. Saving has a dollar-value floor - your $100 stays $100. Investing doesn't - the value can drop without you touching a cent. Most people have been calling one thing the other. The order you do them in determines your financial outcome. The default playbook is: invest automatically first, spend second, save whatever's left. The wealthy do it in reverse: save automatically first, spend from what remains, invest intentionally from the surplus. Automatic 401(k) contributions are investing, not saving - and doing them without due diligence, in a market-linked account you don't control, is a bet most people don't realize they're making. Automating saving is a cognitive strategy, not a cop-out. It removes a high-stakes decision from your mental queue, so your best thinking goes toward evaluating actual investments, where discernment genuinely matters. Interrupting the compounding curve is more costly than it looks. The exponential gains happen late in the cycle. Most people never get there because they restart the clock repeatedly by spending, redirecting, or skipping months. Intentional investing means deploying capital into things you understand, with control, sized to what you actually have, not automatically following historical performance into deals you don't fully understand. The Difference Between Saving and Investing (And Why Most People Get It Wrong) Let's start with a precise definition, because the confusion between these two things is where most of the problem lives. Saving is placing money somewhere it cannot lose dollar value. If you put $100 into a savings vehicle, those $100 will be there when you come back. The amount won't become $60 or $80 because of market conditions. You haven't taken the money out. No one stole it. It's just there, in full, because you put it there. Investing is different. When you invest, you're placing capital somewhere it has the potential to grow, but also to lose value. Not because you withdrew anything. Because the asset itself dropped. You can wake up to an account statement showing your $100 is worth $50, and that's investing. What About Inflation? This is where people push back, and it's a fair point. Inflation erodes the purchasing power of savings over time. That's real. But what often gets missed is that inflation erodes investments too. The same monetary forces that reduce what your saved dollars can buy are working on your invested dollars simultaneously. And an investment loss on top of inflation doesn't solve the inflation problem. It doubles it. Losing hundreds of thousands of dollars in a badly-timed deal isn't an inflation hedge. It's your money going backward at speed. The distinction we're drawing is about the dollar-value floor. Savings has one. Investing doesn't. That's it. The Language Problem The reason this gets so muddled is that the phrase "saving for retirement" has become the universal shorthand for 401(k) contributions, which are, by this definition, investing. Money in market-linked funds can drop. It has dropped. For many people, it's dropped dramatically at exactly the wrong moment. Calling that saving doesn't make it safer. It just makes it harder to think clearly about what you're actually doing. Why the Default Financial Playbook Works Against You Here's how most working Americans handle their money, in order: First, a payroll deduction flows automatically into a 401(k) or similar vehicle before the money arrives in their account. Then spending happens. Then, if anything is left at the end of the month, it might get saved. Maybe. The sequence is: invest first, spend second, save whatever remains. The problem isn't the investing. It's what that order produces in practice. The Automatic Investing Trap That first move, the automatic 401(k) contribution, is made without active due diligence, without specific knowledge of the underlying assets, and without meaningful control over timing or allocation. For most people, the decision is: pick a fund from a list, or accept the target date fund default. That's it. Target date funds are a genuine improvement over doing nothing. They diversify automatically and grow more conservative as you approach retirement. Financial advisors help take emotion out of the process, which matters more than most people realize. These are real improvements. But they don't solve the core problem. You've still lost control of that capital. You face future tax liability. And if you need access to it before retirement, the options are limited, costly, or both. The Syndication Cautionary Tale Bruce has been in over 6,000 client meetings. And one thing he's seen play out repeatedly in recent years is what happens when the "must always be invested" mindset runs into a changing economic environment. A lot of people deployed capital into real estate syndications because the historical performance looked strong and the tax benefits were real. What they didn't fully evaluate was what happens when interest rates rise sharply, and when deals structured around balloon-payment loans need to be refinanced. Rates went up. Sponsors couldn't refinance. Distributions stopped. In many cases, that capital is effectively gone. Not because real estate is a bad investment category. Because people committed capital without evaluating the current monetary environment, and instead relied almost entirely on historical performance as their due diligence. The people who pushed that money in because they felt they couldn't afford to leave it sitting somewhere safe are the ones who lost. Their money didn't just fail to outrun inflation. It evaporated. The Savings Void Because saving is residual in the default sequence, it often doesn't happen at all. By the time spending is done, there's nothing left to put aside. And that's the trap. When a genuinely good investment opportunity appears, there's no capital ready to move on it. The people who can act are the ones who built up savings first - liquid, available, usable cash that's safe and in their control. The others watch the opportunity pass. How the Wealthy Reverse the Sequence The pattern Bruce sees consistently across his wealthiest clients is the opposite of the default. They save automatically first. They determine spending second. They invest intentionally from what remains. The order of priority is reversed, and everything that follows is different because of it. The Personal Economic Model Think of your money as moving through a system. Income arrives. Taxes come out. Then every dollar faces a decision. The first and most important decision isn't to save or invest. It's: how much of this am I going to spend? Spending less than 100% of what you earn is the prerequisite for everything else. It sounds basic, but it's the step most people skip conceptually, even when they think they're doing it.  The Richest Man in Babylon put it plainly: set thy purse to fattening.  A part of all that you earn is yours to keep. Mike Michalowicz made the same argument for businesses in Profit First. If you wait to see what's left after spending, there won't be anything left. There never is. Once you've decided what you're keeping, the next question is the order. Save first, spend from what remains, then invest intentionally from the surplus you've built. The Client Who Saved His Way to Retirement Bruce shared a story that most financial commentators would dismiss as a cautionary tale, but it's actually the opposite. One of his clients kept his 401(k) in a money market account for his entire c

Why does knowing we overthink not help us stop? Dr. Rick and Forrest discuss why rumination becomes a self-reinforcing habit,  and why insight alone rarely helps. They distinguish between rumination and reflection, and talk about how balancing acceptance and agency can help us go from one to the other. Forrest talks about the relationship between overthinking and feelings of disappointment and failure, and Rick shares practical ways to interrupt the cycle, shift into more concrete forms of problem-solving, and finally stop ruminating.
