Family and newborn photographer and educator Elena S Blair joins The Photographic Collective Podcast to unpack how she's built a thriving photography business that's both profitable and deeply personal. With over 300 students coached and years of speaking at events like WPPI, Elena makes the case that systems and soul aren't opposites the right systems are exactly what give you back the time to stay present with clients, family, and the work you love.In this conversation, Elena, Miles, and Jared dig into why "community over competition" isn't just a slogan, how to find your signature style and the courage to go all-in on it, and why most photographers who feel stuck are really just out of time, not talent. Elena also gets honest about handling online negativity, protecting your energy, and why being unapologetically yourself is the best marketing strategy there is.What you'll learn:Why systems protect the heart of your business instead of stripping it awayHow to identify and commit to your signature style — and why it's scarier (and more rewarding) than blending inThe real difference between a struggling photographer and a profitable oneBuilding a calm, repeatable business instead of running on "panic marketing"How to find your people and build a community that pulls you forwardHandling trolls, criticism, and self-doubt when your work means something to youWhether you shoot families, weddings, or brands, this episode is a reminder that you can grow a real, sustainable business without sacrificing the art or the life you got into this for.Want more?

The most powerful man on the planet is eighty, bruised, posting in the dozens at 3 a.m., and nodding off by the afternoon. His Secretary of State looked at a video of him asleep and told Congress he was awake. Thirty-six doctors signed a warning into the Congressional Record and nothing happened. And every single person close enough to know the truth has a paycheck, a seat, or a legacy riding on telling you he's fine. This week Robin takes apart the machine built to keep you from knowing whether the guy with the nuclear codes still has a working brain. This is not armchair neurology and Robin does not diagnose anyone.The story is the concealment: who hides presidential decline, who profits, and why America has no honest way to force the truth out of people who would rather you stayed confused and polite. Not a diagnosis. A cover-up.In this episode:Why "does he have dementia" is the wrong question, and the trap the cover-up wants you stuck inThe receipts: age, chronic venous insufficiency, the bruised hands, the aspirin, the sleeping caught on cameraMarco Rubio telling a congressional committee the sleeping man was awakeThe 3 a.m. posting sprees, sundowning, and the late-night pattern his own side's doctors flagged in writingThe "perfect" cognitive test brag, and what the MoCA actually measures (spoiler: whether you can draw a clock)36 physicians, the Congressional Record, and the silence that followedWho gets paid to say he's fine: staff, party, family, donors, doctors, the pressStrength theater: the parade, the tanks, and what the spectacle is really hidingSanewashing, or how the press launders a meltdown into a policy headlineThe Biden hypocrisy nobody wants to sit next toA short, ugly history of hidden presidents: Cleveland, Wilson, FDR, JFK, ReaganThe 25th Amendment that exists on paper and will never get usedGerontocracy: the bigger rot underneath all of itListen, then come find us:Website and full episode archive: wesawthedevil.comGet on the email list so the algorithm can't bury us.Support the show and unlock bonus episodes: patreon.com/wesawthedevilInstagram: @wesawthedevilpodcastTikTok: robin_wstdEverywhere else: @wesawthedevilBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-unfiltered-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

What happens when you finally achieve the goals you spent years chasing—only to discover the satisfaction never arrives?In this deeply personal episode, Kellan explores the hidden ache that many high achievers experience after reaching success. The promotion comes. The money arrives. The recognition grows. Yet something still feels missing.Kellan argues that the problem isn't a lack of achievement, strategy, discipline, or optimization. The real issue is spiritual malnourishment. When we spend our lives feeding our bodies, careers, reputations, and bank accounts while neglecting the deepest part of ourselves, success can become nothing more than polishing an empty tomb.If you've ever felt restless after accomplishing something important, this conversation offers a powerful framework for understanding why—and what to do about it.Key Takeaways:Why achievement often fails to create lasting fulfillmentThe difference between material success and spiritual nourishmentThe hidden ache beneath outward accomplishmentWhy high achievers frequently feel something is missingThe danger of living from the outside inThe role of truth, love, forgiveness, and stillnessWhy success cannot answer spiritual questionsThe importance of feeding the spirit before the bodyLeadership, relationships, and purpose through a spiritual lensHow to build a life rooted in peace, purpose, prosperity, and joy

Delivered by Leon from the Parish of Santa Helena in the Archdiocese of Jakarta, Indonesia. 2 Timothy 4: 1-8; Rs psalm 71: 8-9.14-15ab.16-17.22; Mark 12: 38-44.RELIGION OFAMBITION, PROMOTION AND POSITION The theme forour meditation today is: Religion of Ambition, Promotion and Position. We admitthat embracing a religion is an individual and group right or choice. Based onthis, human nature that manifests ambition, self-promotion and position seekingoften dominates every one's interest. The Lord Jesusasked us not to have such a way of life in our practice of faith. Jesus himselfdid not have that type of practice. Instead, He presents a style of life thatis the opposite of ambition, self-promotion and position seeking. In His time,religious leaders, scholars, scribes and Pharisees were well known for thistype of religion and way of life. Then Jesusreminds all of us not to follow them. We should avoid tendencies to: 1) veryhigh desires or ambitions to be important and to be prioritized; 2) alwaysseeking to be promoted or looking for attention to be known and acknowledged orappreciated by other people; 3) use one's position, even the one of a spiritualnature, for personal gain. Followers ofChrist should behave in words and deeds with humility which brings goodness toothers, rather than their ambition to profit from the lives of other people.They should show and promote goodness of others and common good through work,service and solidarity rather than self-promotion. They should use positionwith responsibility whether civil or religious for the service of common goodrather than seeking any personal gain. The three humantendencies described earlier are rooted in pride, which is one of the 7 capitalsins of mankind. If this capital sin is removed, the sins that are derived fromit will also not develop. There are two ways that we learn today to fight humanpride. First, we alwayspraise and thank God at all times. TheApostle Paul advised his disciple Timothy to express praise and gratitudethrough an attitude of true faith, namely being patient in suffering andcarrying out the duties of service and preaching in joy. Second, humilityshould become our preference in life that we develop and maintain. Jesus hasset an example through the act of a poor widow who gave alms. Humility is notin the form of being passive and calm, but doing and offering somethingmaterial or spiritual which, although simple, is useful for others and forcommon good. Let's pray. In thename of the Father... Strengthen and bless us, O Lord Jesus Christ, so thatthrough our routine and ordinary work and ministry, we will bring goodness toothers and our lives together. May Your Spirit always accompany us to realizethis mission. Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit ... Inthe name of the Father...

In this episode, I explore the gut–brain connection from a completely different angle than most conversations you've probably heard.Yes, gut health matters. Yes, inflammation, dysbiosis, and digestion are important.But I also want to expand your awareness beyond food alone — because your internal state is influenced by much more than what you eat.1. Your Diet Is More Than FoodWhen I talk about “diet,” I'm not only talking about nutrition.Your diet also includes:What you watchWhat you listen toThe environments you stay inThe conversations you engage inThe people around youAnd the voice in your headAll of this becomes input into your system.So when we talk about gut health, we can't ignore the emotional, mental, and environmental inputs that are constantly shaping your internal state.2. The Gut–Brain Communication LoopYour gut and brain are in constant communication through the nervous system — especially through pathways like the vagus nerve.What I want you to understand is this:Your thoughts are not separate from your physiology.A thought can shift your internal chemistry, and your internal chemistry can reinforce your thoughts.It's a loop.3. Triggers Start the Entire Chain ReactionA trigger is anything picked up through your five senses:What you seeWhat you hearWhat you smellWhat you tasteWhat you physically feelWhen a trigger connects with a stored emotional memory, it creates a thought automatically.Most of the time, this happens without conscious awareness.4. Thought → Emotion → Body ResponseEvery thought creates a chemical response in the brain, which then influences how the body responds.That means:Thoughts of fear can shift the body into protection modeThoughts of safety can support digestion and regulationRepeated thought patterns create repeated body responsesOver time, these patterns become automatic loops.5. Conditioned Eating and Emotional LoopsMany cravings are not just about food — they are learned associations.For example:Certain foods linked to comfort in childhoodEating used as emotional regulationSmells or tastes triggering safety memoriesThese patterns are not random. They are conditioned responses your nervous system has learned over time.6. Digestion Follows State, Not Just FoodOne of the most important things I want you to understand is this:Your digestive system responds to your internal state.When the body is in stress or protection mode, digestion is not prioritized.When the body feels safe and regulated, digestion and metabolic processes function more efficiently.7. The Real Shift: Awareness Over ControlInstead of only asking:“What should I eat?”Start asking:“What is my system responding to right now?”“What triggered this shift in me?”“What pattern am I repeating unconsciously?”This is where real change begins — not in restriction, but in awareness.Struggling with emotional or binge eating?

Most companies that need an ergonomic assessment don't know they need one. They've bought new chairs. They've done the wellness training. They've put up the stretch posters. And people are still hurting. So they conclude that ergonomics doesn't work, when the real problem is that they've been buying solutions without ever diagnosing the actual problem.In this episode, we break down 5 clear, observable signs that a workplace needs a proper ergonomic assessment and why recognizing these signs is one of the most powerful tools an ergonomics consultant has for starting a real client conversation. We unpack the research behind why comprehensive ergonomic intervention outperforms equipment-only and training-only approaches, what each sign is actually telling you about the underlying problem, and how to use this framework in your marketing, your proposals, and your very first conversation with a prospective client.In this episode:Why buying new equipment without an assessment almost never solves the problem and what the research says about equipment-only interventionsThe 'improvised fixes' signal: why cardboard boxes under monitors are a diagnostic finding, not just a quirky habitWhy cross-departmental complaints are the red flag that changes the conversation from 'individual problem' to 'systemic issue'Why 'we don't know what's causing it' is the single most expensive position a company can be inThe 40% reduction finding  and how to present comprehensive assessment ROI to a client who's already tried 'fixing it' on their ownWhether you're a new ergonomics consultant building your client base or an experienced practitioner looking for sharper language to open doors, this episode gives you a framework you can use in your next sales conversation this week.If you're a healthcare professional and this episode got your wheels turning about office ergonomics - good.

Conflicts in relationship — where your assumptions are the invisible thing running every hard conversation you have.In this episode, Georgianna and Steph walk through the conscious and unconscious assumptions we bring into hard conversations — the ones that decide the outcome before the conversation starts. Georgianna shares the prompt she uses with couples to surface what's actually underneath, and walks through her four-category framework: assumptions about yourself, about your partner, about the situation, and about relationships. Steph names the patterns that show up when desperate attachment runs the room — including her own history of trying to get a therapist to fix her partner instead of getting curious about herself.They also work a live somatic practice on air: noticing an unhelpful assumption, feeling it in the body, then choosing a more helpful one and noticing what shifts. The whole practice takes under two minutes. The point is to grow the muscle before you need it — because the nervous system only reaches for what it's already practiced.What You'll Learn:Why "not actively yelling" and "regulated enough to talk" are not the same — and how to tell the differenceThe four categories of assumptions every conflict conversation carries (and prompts to surface them)How your body knows your assumptions before your mind does, and how to tap inThe difference between claiming you're curious and actually being curious — and the physical anchor that closes the gapHow to assume good intentions with discernmentA two-minute somatic practice you can use before any hard conversationResources Mentioned:Somatic Integration Sessions — twice-monthly live body-based practices, where this work happens in communityConscious Relationship Training (CRT) — our 10-week live cohort training, twice yearly. Where you practice this with real activation and real people.The Self-Compassionate Body-Based Toolkit — for self-paced, self-led practiceIf you're tired of having the same conversation over and over again, this episode is a way through the invisible layer that's causing the problem — plus what to do instead.Keywords: conscious relationship podcast, relational patterns, inner work podcast, somatic shadow work, nervous system regulation, conflict in relationships

There are seasons for steady, daily effort — and then there are moments when incremental progress just makes things worse. This week I'm talking about something that surprised even me: the idea that sometimes, the most useful thing isn't a small step. It's a big one.The Garage, the Trees, and the Difference That MattersI cleaned my garage this weekend. And planted a tree garden. Both projects taught me something different about momentum — and when crossing the threshold into "just finish it" is actually the right call.Gardens vs. Demolition ProjectsNot every challenge in life responds to the same approach. Building a habit, growing a marriage, developing your finances — these are gardens. They need consistent tending over time, not a dramatic push. But cleaning out a neglected room, making a decision you've been sitting on for two years, or finally addressing a health issue? Those are demolition projects. They need force and commitment.Building vs. ClearingAsk yourself: am I building something, or am I clearing something? Building almost always works through small steps — strength, relationships, discipline, creative practice. But clearing often needs a different gear entirely. And when you nibble at a clearing project slowly, you stay emotionally attached to the old system and never fully cross over.The Two Big MistakesThe first: trying to Big Bang something that actually needs consistency. January 1st energy applied to the wrong kind of project exhausts you fast. The second (sneakier): using small steps to avoid transformation altogether. Researching, planning, organizing bins — it feels like motion, but it's avoidance. Ask yourself honestly: am I moving forward, or circling the drain?What Nature Shows UsGrowth in nature is rarely gradual and visible. The trees look dead for weeks in late April — and then overnight, everything is green. Birds migrate in a burst, not a slow fade. A caterpillar doesn't gradually become a butterfly; it dissolves and emerges something completely new. Life contains both slow formation and sudden transformation.Reading the Season You're InThe wisdom isn't in choosing one philosophy and sticking to it forever. It's learning to read the moment. Some seasons call for faithfulness and daily showing up. Others call for a shovel, a weekend, and a decision not to stop. Both approaches are gifts. Small steps help us begin. Big bangs help us cross the threshold.If something on your list has been "in progress" for longer than makes sense — ask yourself if you've been treating a demolition project like a garden. The answer might change your whole Saturday.You can reach me at jill@startwithsmallsteps.com or find everything I do at jillfromthenorthwoods.com.Timestamps0:00 Introduction3:18 Gardens vs. demolition projects6:39 Building vs. clearing — two different workflows9:12 Mistake #1 — Big Banging things that need consistency10:19 Mistake #2 — Using small steps to avoid change14:30 Why the Big Bang creates clarity16:03 What nature teaches us about sudden transformation21:56 Closing thoughtsJill's Linkshttp://jillfromthenorthwoods.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@startwithsmallstepshttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/startwithsmallstepshttps://twitter.com/schmernEmail the podcast at jill@startwithsmallsteps.comBy choosing to watch this video or listen to this podcast, you acknowledge that you are doing so of your own free will.

In Episode 231 of The Killer Point Of View Podcast with guest Melissa (Slasherqueen66), we step into two completely different vampire worlds with Daybreakers and Underworld. One gives us a dystopian future where vampires dominate society through corporate control and blood dependency, while the other throws us into a gothic war between vampires and Lycans hidden beneath the modern world.This week, we discuss our killer perspectives on both films and break down what makes each vampire universe so memorable. Which film has the stronger vampire mythology? Which world feels more believable? And which movie absolutely nailed the vampire aesthetic, the cold futuristic world of Daybreakers or the dark leather and moonlight gothic style of Underworld?We also discuss:Favorite scenes from each filmWhich vampire society we'd rather live inThe deeper meanings behind both storiesThe evolution of vampires in 2000s horrorOur final ratings for each filmMelissa's IG - https://www.instagram.com/slasherqueen66?igsh=MXBhbzgyNHU4Nzhzbg==The Killer Point Of View Network IG - https://www.instagram.com/thekillerpointofviewnetwork?igsh=YmUwcHl6enBlM3Rl&utm_source=qrJoe's IG - https://www.instagram.com/mr.averagejoe89?igsh=MXR0YXFkNnZyZTBlbw==Blake's IG - https://www.instagram.com/blakenandeggs_horror?igsh=b2tlMGxwMm8yOTRy

Who may dwellin Your holy hill?” In other words, who is able to experience and enjoycontinuous intimate communion and fellowship with the LORD God Almighty? Thenhe answers the question in verse 2: “He who walks uprightly, and worksrighteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart.” First,we are walking uprightly, and we are working righteousness. We are doing rightthings. We are thinking about right things. Then David says something sopowerful, and I believe it is literally key to our walk in the Christian life: “Andspeaks the truth in his heart.” To experience true fellowship with theLORD, it is essential that we not only thinks about truth, and not only hastruth in our heart, but that we speaks the truth. We walk and live in thattruth. Thatis why in Second, and Third John—those books where John is writing tobelievers—he says that one of his greatest joys is to hear that his childrenwalk in the truth. Now what does this mean: “speaks the truth in his heart”? Asa matter of fact, in Psalm 51, where David is repenting of his terrible sin ofadultery and murder, he says this in verse 6: “Behold, You desire truth inthe inward parts.” Godwants us to think about the truth, talk about the truth, listen to the truth,and let the truth guide our decisions. You see, I am convinced the battle ofthe ages is the lie versus the truth—the lie versus the truth. I have oftenthought that when people come and say, “Pastor Mike, what should I do aboutthis?” or “I'm having a problem and I don't know how to handle this,” one of mymain objectives as I sit there, listen to them, and begin to share counsel issimply this: I need to tell them the truth—the truth that comes from the Wordof God. The reason they are confused or in trouble is because they have been listeningto, and “speaking” the lie in their mind and heart. RememberGod's Word is Truth. Jesus said in John 17:17: “Sanctify them through Thytruth. Thy word is truth.” Not only that, remember Pilate asked thequestion in John chapter 18:38: “What is truth?” Interestingly, justbefore Pilate asked that question, Jesus had said: “For this cause I wasborn, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witnessto the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.” Then Pilateasked the question, “What is truth?”—while Truth Himself was standingright in front of him, and he was missing it. Myfriend, Jesus is truth. John 14:6 says: “I am the way, the truth, and thelife. No man comes to the Father but by Me.” On the other hand, the devilis a liar. In John 8:44, Jesus said: “You are of your father the devil, andthe lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, andabode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie,he speaks of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it.” Inthe very beginning, Satan lied to Eve. We are either believing the lies of theevil one as we make choices and decisions in life, or we are listening to thetruth of God's Word. That is why we must let mercy and truth come into ourhearts. Proverbs 3:3 tells us: “Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bindthem around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart, our hearts.” Becauseas we listen to the truth, speak the truth in our hearts, and make ourdecisions based on truth rather than the lies of the evil one, my friend, itmakes all the difference in the world in our daily walk. That is why John wouldsay to those precious disciples in Second and Third John: “I rejoicedgreatly that I found thy children walking in truth.” We walk uprightly. We workrighteousness. And we speak the truth in our hearts—in our innermost being. Welet that truth live within us. Are you letting that truth live in you today? Itrust you are. 

What happens when a hairstylist gets tired of feeling tied down — and decides to do something about it? Leisha did not just change her schedule. She sold her house, moved into an RV with her husband, two dogs, and a cat, drove to a city where she knew nobody, and started walking into salons with a stack of papers and an idea nobody had ever heard of. That idea? Traveling Hairstylist — a first-of-its-kind service where stylists can hire a professional to come to their space, care for their clients, and cover 100% of their booth rent while they're on maternity leave, medical leave, or any extended time away. Coast to coast, all 50 states, with a team of five (soon to be seven) and a near-perfect client retention rate.In this episode, Misty sits down with Leisha, the founder of Traveling Hairstylist, and they go deep on what it actually looks like to start something that does not exist yet — the fear, the first salon door she walked into, the moment it finally clicked, and why she believes the beauty industry is the most creative space to build something that is entirely your own. In this episode, you will learn:How Leisha combined her love of travel with a real gap she saw in the industry — and why those two things colliding changed everythingWhat it actually looked like to launch with zero clients, zero connections, and one Instagram post in a city she had never lived inThe honest breakdown of how Traveling Hairstylist works financially — what stylists keep, what Leisha's team covers, and why it is structured the way it isWhy suite stylists are especially vulnerable during a leave — and what most salon companies still are not doing to support themHow Leisha thinks about team building, contracts, and what it means to run a business that is also a love letter to the industryWhat happened when she finally got a "yes" after two weeks of walking into salons and getting told noThe mindset that kept her going when the idea was still just hers — and why she believes when something really calls to you, it is embedded in youConnect with Leisha + Traveling Hairstylist:Instagram: @‌thetraveling.hairstylistWebsite: The Traveling Hairstylisthairstylist podcast, salon owner podcast, hairstylist personal development, beauty industry business podcast, hairstylist leave coverage

The Buddha taught a path of awakened living, but how does that manifest in today's world of constant connectivity and widespread suffering?How do we keep our hearts open without being defined or hardened by the pain that surrounds us, whether personal, collective, or historical?

Most people want an extraordinary life… while offering ordinary effort.That's the disconnect.In this episode, Kellan Fluckiger dismantles the illusion that you can receive excellence from life while giving it mediocrity in return. If you're stuck, frustrated, or feeling like life isn't delivering—this is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed.This conversation is a powerful continuation of the journey from the swamp to the meadow—a shift from learned helplessness and victim mindset into fierce life ownership, radical excellence, and a deep passion for service.You'll discover why excellence isn't about perfection or performance—but about integrity, coherence, discipline, and the courage to go all in.If you've been playing small, cutting corners, or waiting for the world to change first… this episode will challenge you to become the standard.Key Takeaways:The difference between mediocrity and radical excellenceWhy most people resist going all inThe hidden cost of cutting corners and breaking promises to yourselfWhat true excellence actually means (beyond performance and appearances)The concept of coherence: aligning your words, values, and actionsWhy discipline—not talent—is the price of excellenceHow fear of judgment keeps people stuck in mediocrityThe connection between radical excellence and inner peaceWhy service is a natural result of growth and transformationHow living in the “meadow” creates purpose, prosperity, and joyThe leadership responsibility to embody—not perform—excellence

If you've ever had a homeowner act standoffish or hover over you while you work—it's not about you. By the time you showed up, they already said yes.When that phone rings, it means they've hit an emotional tipping point. To get to that call, they had to overcome social anxiety, invite a stranger into their home, and take a risk. By the time you pull up, they've already been through an emotional journey. Your job isn't to convince them—it's to honor the courage it took for them to call.In this episode, Sam Wakefield breaks down why the first five minutes make or break everything, and how to shift from treating homeowners like transactions to seeing them as people who took a risk by trusting you.In This Episode:Why the appointment starts when they realized they had a problem—not when you walk inThe social anxiety homeowners overcome just to pick up the phoneWhat's going through their mind when you pull up (felons, theft, damage, mess)The first 5 minutes: exact language for phone, walk-up, and in-homeHow to honor the tipping point instead of treating it like just another jobWork with Sam / Join the Close It Now Movement:Website: https://www.closeitnow.netCoaching & Training: https://www.closeitnow.net/coachingFacebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/closeitnowEmail: sam@closeitnow.netNew Group Coaching Program:Starting April 2026 - Pods of 5 for 6 months.

Bestie… some agents are losing referrals and don't even realize they messed it up.In this episode, I'm sharing two real stories: • One agent who completely fumbled a listing opportunity • And one blind referral that turned into a six-figure opportunityThe difference? Reputation, follow-up, and client experience.We're talking about:Why your name is already being spoken in rooms you're not inThe prayer I started praying over my businessHow agents quietly lose referrals through silence and poor communicationWhat “fumbling the bag” actually looks like in real estateThe framework that keeps referrals coming on repeatIf you want a referral-based real estate business, you can't rely on luck. You need faith and systems.And yes… we're talking about both.✨ The Prayer: “Lord, let my name be spoken in rooms I'm not in.

In this episode, I'm sharing how I think about value now, after years of refining my own pricing and helping dozens of people refine theirs. For a long time, many of us were taught to measure our work in hours and deliverables. But when I zoomed out, I realised my clients weren't paying for time. They were paying for what changed because of the work, what became easier, what started earning, what stopped feeling heavy. When your pricing doesn't reflect that wider impact, it creates pressure. You either feel underpaid or you overextend yourself trying to prove your fee.I walk you through the framework I created to solve this — TESSA. It's the system I've used for the last four years to help service providers stop guessing their rates and start pricing in a way that feels grounded and strategic.We look at Time, Energy, Skills, Specialism and Asset value, the five layers that exist in your work whether you're acknowledging them or not. When you price across all five, the numbers begin to make sense.If pricing has felt like the piece of your business that keeps wobbling, I recorded this for you. I want you to feel proud when you say your price. I want your business to feel expansive rather than draining. And I want you to have a structure that supports you long-term, rather than changing your rates every few months because you're unsure.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy pricing based purely on hours keeps you cappedHow clients actually experience valueThe link between undercharging and burnoutWhat I mean by “high energy tax”How your experience and training should shape your pricingWhy specialism increases your perceived valueWhen asset value and ROI should be factored inThe 5-part TESSA framework and how to apply it“When you only price on time, you either undercharge for the depth of your expertise or you overwork to justify the price.”If pricing has been the thing you constantly spiral over, the thing that makes you second-guess yourself, over-deliver, or quietly resent your work join my new pricing bootcamp, Rave Your Rates.

If you've been contemplating Iboga or another plant medicine, this may be helpful for you to hear about her process to discernment and decision making.What you'll hear insideThe first time Beth heard about Iboga and the phrase she never forgot: “First ceremony cleanses your karma… second tells you what to do with your life.”The long on-and-off relationship with the calling to this medicine and why she didn't do Iboga for so many yearsThe piece most people underestimate: ample space and time for integration, especially with Iboga.Taking an “energetic sabbatical”--what it actually has been, what it wasn't, and why it mattersMidlife portal and the deeper question underneath: “What do I really want?”The hard moment when a death at an Iboga center changed everythingA trusted friend's iboga experience and a mysterious “one thing” she hasn't been able to move despite doing “all the things” to change it.“Hanuman made me do it!” (?!) Various “lightning bolt” moments and timeline-jumps.Microdosing Iboga, how it happened and what it was likeA plant connection practice Beth recommends if you feel called to any medicine and what happened the very first time she did it with IbogaThe FEAR of iboga… why has she rarely felt this level of fear before a medicine journey?The purge-before-the-purge: shedding the skin of the snake and endings for the highest good.Yet another call-out of the “Amazon Prime effect” of “quick healing” culture… and why intention, prayer, reverence, and relationship matter more than trying to “get something” from a plantRecurring ocean dreamsBeth's deepest intention… not “fix me,” but: “Whatever is in the highest and best for me to be of service on this planet at this time.”ThemesPrayer and right relationship with Iboga and other sacred plant medicinesTiming, readiness, and discernmentIntegration as an actual lifestyle (not just an integration circle)When fear is a doorway inThe way spirit weaves in your life LONG before the ceremonyTruth vs. bypassingMentions + Modalities referencedAyahuasca, psilocybin mushrooms, Bufo, and “trickster” medicinesMaster plant dietas and retreat integrationVipassana / extended meditation retreatsTransformational NLP and Family Constellation work (and why it can feel like “there's no other way to get there”)Devotion, chanting, singing…and her journey of lightening bolt moments with the Hanuman Chalisa and dreams of HanumanDream guidance from plant spiritsA note on Iboga safety + discernmentIboga is not to be taken lightly.

Ephesians 5:1-21Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. 2 And walk in love, asChrist also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrificeto God for a sweet-smelling aroma.Today we are looking at Ephesians 5:1-2, where the Apostle Paul gives us theclear admonition to walk in love. Also in in these two verses, Paul also givesus several reasons why we should walk in love. First, he tells us in verse 1 to“be imitators of God as dear children.” As the children of God, we areto be reflectors of who He is. God is love, and therefore we should reflectthat love—the love God has for us and for the world around us. Themost quoted verse in the Bible, one we all know so well, tells us: “For Godso loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son.” God is a lovingGod, and because He is love, He is also a God who gives. As His children, weare called to love and to give of ourselves sacrificially for His glory. Ilove the phrase Paul uses here, “as dear children.” Sometranslations say, “as beloved children.” Remember, at least twicein the Gospel of Matthew, the Father speaks from heaven and declares His lovefor His Son. At the baptism of Jesus in Matthew chapter 3, and again on theMount of Transfiguration in Matthew chapter 17, God says, “This is Mybeloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Nowthink about this—we too are His beloved children. 1 John 3:1–3, tells us, “Beholdwhat manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be calledchildren of God.” In Romans chapter 8, we are told that we cry out, “Abba,Father.” We have an intimate, personal relationship with our Father inheaven. Because of that relationship, and as proof of it, we should desire toshow forth His love to the world around us as imitators of God and as Hisbeloved children. Ialso think about what Jesus prayed in John 17:23. He said, “I in them, andYou in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may knowthat You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.”Jesus prayed and said, “Father, just as You have loved Me, You love them.”Can you imagine that? Jesus is the beloved Son of God, and He tells us that theFather loves us in the same way He loves Him. How much does God love you? Heloves you with the same love He has for His beloved Son—whom He gave as asacrifice for the sins of the world. So,we see several reasons here for walking in love. We are children of God. Weshare in His nature, and His nature is love. We are beloved children who desireto please our Father in heaven. We cry out, “Abba, Father.” And then we see athird reason in verse 2: “Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us,an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.” Thisphrase, “a sweet-smelling aroma,” is very meaningful. Our reflection ofChrist's love is pleasing to God—it rises as a sweet fragrance before Him. Inthe book of Leviticus, chapters 1 through 3 describe the three sweet savorofferings: the burnt offering, the meal offering, and the peace offering. Theburnt offering pictures Christ's complete devotion to God. The meal offeringreflects His perfect character. The peace offering shows Christ making peacebetween sinful man and a holy God. Thesin offering and the trespass offering, found in Leviticus chapters 4 and 5,are not sweet savor offerings. Why? Because sin is not sweet or beautiful. Sinis what put Christ on the cross. Sin is what condemned us and would send us toa devil's hell apart from Christ.  Oh,my friend, today let us remember who we are. We are dear children ofGod—beloved children—loved with an unimaginable, unconditional, selfless love.Therefore, let us walk in love as “His beloved children” Godbless you and may you have a wonderful, wonderful day.

If you want 2026 to feel different, your systems have to change — not your personality, not your caffeine intake. In this episode, I'm walking you through the practice systems that actually save time, reduce chaos, and keep you out of that constant “I'll fix it later” mode.I break down what a system really is, why most private practice owners don't realize what's broken, and how overwhelm usually shows up right when your practice starts growing. Whether you're brand new or already busy, this episode helps you build a foundation that can scale without burning you out.We focus on the three core systems every practice needs from day one: how potential clients become real clients, how you communicate in a way that's ethical and sustainable, and how money moves through your business without stress or confusion.In this episode, I cover:How to design a “potential client to client” system that reduces friction and increases show-upsWhy your communication system has to be HIPAA-compliant and fit your nervous systemHow to build a money exchange system before your first client ever walks inThe difference between “shiny” marketing and “sticky” systems that actually convertIf your practice feels reactive, scattered, or harder than it needs to be, this episode will help you rebuild your systems so your business can support you, not drain you.If you want ongoing CE credit, leadership support, and real-world training you can actually apply, the Step It Up Membership is where this work deepens over time. Get your step by step guide to private practice. Because you are too important to lose to not knowing the rules, going broke, burning out, and giving up. #counselorsdontquit.

There was a time I was hitting consistent revenue milestones…but still lying awake at night, stressed about money.In this episode of Your Big Next, I'm sharing the money mindset shifts that changed everything—in my business, my leadership, and my personal peace. You'll hear the real story of how I went from undercharging, over-functioning, and carrying an invisible fear of lack to raising my prices, building a high-performing team, and creating more space, alignment, and overflow than ever before.This wasn't just about numbers. It was about identity, stewardship, and trust. And it took a wake-up call, one I didn't see coming to finally shift the way I viewed money for good.Inside this episode:The toxic money cycle I didn't realize I was inThe breakthrough moment that reframed everything3 money mindset shifts that rewired my beliefsHow I moved from “I can't afford it” → “How can I?”The importance of value creation over scarcity thinkingWhy stewarding wealth is a responsibility, not a rewardWhat alignment with your financial beliefs really feels likeWhether you're undercharging, overspending, or simply sensing it's time for a deeper financial reset this episode is an invitation to look at your money story through a new lens.Resources from this episode:Your Big Next Book is Coming SOON!

This episode is your wake-up call—because before you upgrade your goals, you must upgrade you.I'm walking you through the exact CEO-level audit I do every single December… the same audit that has helped me scale multiple companies, build stronger teams, clean up my brand, and operate with clarity instead of chaos.Most people think they're stuck because they don't know the next strategy.the truth? They're stuck because they haven't audited what's slowing them down.This isn't a fluffy planning session.This is where we get brutally honest about…what's outdated,what's leaking your energy,what's no longer aligned,and what has to change before you step into your next level.If you're tired of setting goals that don't stick...If you're done repeating the same patterns each year…If you're ready to lead like a CEO instead of operate like a firefighter…This episode will shift your entire trajectory.Things I Cover in This Episode→ BRAND AUDIT:Why your brand has nothing to do with colors, fonts, logos, or aestheticsThe #1 brand question that determines your next levelThe real reason confusion kills conversionConsistency, positioning, integrity, and audience alignment→ PERSONAL & PERFORMANCE AUDIT:The truth about capacity vs. motivationHealth, discipline, self-trust, and emotional bandwidthWhat your nervous system has to do with scalingWhy your calendar exposes your real priorities→ DECISION & LEADERSHIP AUDIT:The decisions you keep delaying (and what it's costing you)How avoidance becomes the silent bottleneckWhat true leadership actually requires as you scale→ FUTURE READINESS & SCALE AUDIT:The “Double Tomorrow Test”—would your business survive?Systems, automation, margins, burn rate, team rolesWhy growth breaks businesses that aren't structurally ready→ INTEGRATION:What to cut, what to keep, and what to call inThe leadership identity required for your next seasonThe real work required to step into 2026 with clarity and powerIf you've been feeling the friction—this episode tells you exactly why and exactly what to do next.If this episode stirred something in you… good.That means your next level is calling.

Sometimes the plan for the episode… totally sucks. In this conversation, I scrap my original idea mid-recording and bring you into what's actually alive in my world right now: parenting an 11-year-old, navigating big emotions, asking scary questions, and coming back (over and over) to my values as a mom.We talk about what it means to hold space for your kids' real struggles, why “because I said so” isn't a value, and how to stay in the room when your child is wrestling with belonging, insecurity, and the very human fear of not being liked. It's an honest peek into how I'm fumbling, regulating, repairing, and choosing relationship on purpose.TOPICS & TANGENTS:Life updates: Colorado snow, moving (again), and starting 2026 in a new homeParenting an 11-year-old: hormones, friendship dynamics, and fitting inThe conversation no parent wants to have: asking your child directly about self-harmWhy kids need us to ask the hard questions out loudCreating safety: therapy for boys, emotional literacy, and modeling vulnerabilityWhy “because I said so” is not a parenting valueMutual respect, consequences, and holding boundaries after a big emotional momentCuriosity as a parenting tool: better questions than “How was your day?”When your child's biggest fear mirrors your own (and what to do with that)Remembering: you can't be the parent you want to be from a dysregulated statePOINT OF THE STORY:You will never feel “ready” or fully qualified for the version of parenting you're in, it's all first-time territory. But when the plan falls apart, coming back to your core values, staying curious, and being brave enough to ask the hard questions builds the kind of relationship where your kids actually bring you their real life.Are you loving it?

What if the agencies that crush Q1 aren't working harder in January, they're making one  or two critical decisions right now, in December?In this solo episode, Dan reveals why Q1 consistently catches agencies off-guard and what separates those who stumble into the new year from those who hit the ground running. The secret isn't about working through the holidays or setting ambitious goals—it's about installing a systematic referral system during Q4's quieter moments. What You'll Leave With:Why trust, not awareness, became the scarce resource after 2020 and how it changes your approachThe four stages agencies move through and how to identify which phase you're stuck inThe "high school gym vs. NFL stadium" test for choosing the right lead generation strategy based on market sizeHow to structure connector calls to get 2-5 quality referrals from a single conversationThe simple human emotion that makes people actually follow through on promised introductionsA two-pronged outreach system that keeps your pipeline full even when you're buried in client workWhy making it easier for people to help you eliminates the awkwardness of asking for referralsThe one free data tool you need to get started without expensive SaaS platformsTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction: The strange Q4 gap period and what's coming[02:33] The Cobbler's children phase and why most agencies get stuck there[05:00] The four stages of agency growth and how they're detached from revenue[09:15] The 2020 trust recession and why cold outreach stopped working[12:30] High school gym vs. NFL stadium: Choosing the right strategy for your market[16:45] The systematic referral framework: How to generate warm intros weekly[21:20] Structuring connector calls to get 2-5 referrals per conversation[24:10] The emotional game changer that makes introductions actually happen[27:17] Common objections: "This seems like too much work" and "I'm worried about asking for help"[29:35] How this scales beyond your initial network (sprint, jog, run phases)[31:54] The Referral Engine Program and Referral Network Diagnostic offerQuotes: "A lot of agencies end up in level two, which we call the Cobbler's children phase. They have a track record, they've produced results for clients, but new business is very reactive—it's very much catch as catch can." — Dan Englander"After 2020, we saw a massive shift. Trust became the scarce resource, not awareness. Everyone's inbox is full, everyone's LinkedIn is saturated, and people have gotten really good at tuning out anything that feels like cold outreach." — Dan Englander"If you're getting on a call a day—like an apple a day keeps the doctor away—or five calls a week, that is usually more than enough to hit 99% of sales goals." — Dan Englander

How to talk to the Vengeful Martyr, Evasive Expert, Divisive Immortal, Hungry Shapeshifter, Righteous Bully, and The NothingIn this second part of the “Communicating with Villains” series, Kristina and Anna get very practical about how to actually talk to people who are running these archetypes, including when you are the one in the villain seat.They move from real stories about teeth, genetics, and breast health into concrete language, strategies, and “do not do this” warnings for each villain.This is the “how to handle them in real life” episode.In this episodeKristina and Anna explore:How the Vengeful Martyr shows up in health, caregiving, and self neglectWhy dental and breast health can become a mirror for martyrdomThe role of Divisive Immortal catastrophizing in medical decisions and safetyHow to make choices that are logical, not fear based, even around cancer riskHow to actually talk to:Evasive ExpertDivisive ImmortalHungry ShapeshifterRighteous BullyThe Nothing / Invisible DestroyerThey also name the difference between doing “self work” on your villain and learning to stay in relationship with someone else's.The Vengeful Martyr: health, teeth, and breast tissueAnna shares:How her “Vengeful Martyr era” lined up with sleep deprivation, breastfeeding, and her first major dental issuesThe realization that she invests in visible hygiene and beauty, while neglecting things no one sees, like gums, pap smears, and internal healthA concrete shift: flossing, water picking, changing dentists, and choosing a provider who does not shame herA genetic test that revealed increased risk for breast cancer and skin cancer, and her decision to act now rather than “martyr” herself by ignoring itWhy she is seriously considering prophylactic bilateral mastectomies as an act of self nourishment, not fearKristina reflects on:The symbolism of breasts as sources of nourishment and pleasure, and what it means to “retire” the functional side of them in order to care for the selfHow the Nourisher legend of the Vengeful Martyr is “drink while you pour,” and how that plays out in real bodies and real choicesThe overlap between Vengeful Martyr and Divisive Immortal when it comes to health, anxiety, and medical systemsDivisive Immortal: fear, loyalty, and catastropheThey unpack:How the Divisive Immortal can show up as catastrophizing doctors, shaming providers, and rigid ideas about safetyThe Enneagram 6 “loyal skeptic” flavor, and how loyalty plus fear becomes rigidityThe difference between making a logical preventive decision and making a fear based decisionHow two people can face the same medical risk but be activated in different villains, one in Vengeful Martyr, one in Divisive ImmortalCommunication tips for Divisive Immortal:Avoid “us versus them” language and triangulationEmphasize “you and me versus the problem”Reassure safety and solidaritySay things like:“I feel the fear you are feeling, and I understand it”“I am not your enemy, we are on the same team”“Our relationship is bigger than this argument”Evasive Expert: logic, avoidance, and emotional shutdownFor the Evasive Expert, Kristina and Anna cover:How they over rely on logic and under express emotion, or explode when emotion finally leaks outClassic tells: “I do not know how I feel,” or answering questions with cerebral analysisWhy approaching them with pure emotion makes them disappearCommunication tips for Evasive Expert:Lead with logic, not dramaPresent the impact as a logical chain: “A and B happened, which led to C and D, can you see why I might be upset”Use “logic puzzles” to pierce the emotional shellIn full blow up mode, give them time to process, then return with calm, structured reasoningHungry Shapeshifter: attention, performance, and multiplicityFor the Hungry Shapeshifter, they discuss:The need for attention, lightness, and performanceHow calling out their shifting identities can feel humiliating, not helpfulWhy dramatic outbursts are often releases, not always indicators of deep relational ruptureCommunication tips for Hungry Shapeshifter:Let them perform, be the audience rather than the critic in the momentNotice patterns over time, not just one dramatic sceneWhen they are calm and grounded, take them more seriously than in full performance modeInvite coherence by asking, “Which part of you feels most true right now”Righteous Bully: conviction, protection, and curiosityFor the Righteous Bully, Anna shares how working this arc has changed what even triggers her, and why things that used to set her off no longer land.They cover:The intensity and danger of the Righteous Bully when they have reached their limitHow they will burn things down to protect what they love or believe inThe shift from externalized bullying to internalized self criticismCommunication tips for Righteous Bully:Be deeply curious, not defensiveReflect their point of view back accurately so they feel heardUse permissive language:“Would you be open to hearing my perspective”“My love for you is bigger than this disagreement”Do not try to tell them they are wrong in the heat of the moment, it only adds fuelLater, you decide whether you want a Righteous Bully in your life, even a more integrated oneThe Nothing / Invisible Destroyer: avoidance, presence, and tiny actionsFor The Nothing, they highlight:Question deflection, disappearing into thought, and vanishing from shared spacesDeep sensitivity to rejection and criticismDifficulty taking action, even when they intellectually understand the issueCommunication tips for The Nothing:Name and value their presence: “It means so much just having you in the room with me”Invite tiny actions, “Can we take one small step toward this together”Use humor and embodiment practices to bring them back into their bodiesUse the compliment–criticism–compliment “sandwich” if feedback is neededWhen they disappear after a big top, lure them back with low pressure, body doubling, and no heavy processing at firstAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
