Discover how AWSA equips Christian women authors through training, mentoring, prayer, marketing, publishing support, and the Golden Scroll Awards—all with the goal of sharing the Gospel and expanding Kingdom impact through Christian books.Show NotesKingdom Cross Roads Podcast comes to you from the Christian Product Expo (CPE) in St. Charles, Missouri, where host TS Wright sits down with Rebecca White of AWSA—the Advanced Writers and Speakers Association.Rebecca introduces listeners to the mission and ministry behind AWSA and explains why the organization holds its annual gathering alongside CPE. Christian retailers come to CPE looking for new books, gifts, jewelry, cards, artwork, and other Christian products, while authors have an opportunity to build relationships that can help place their books into independent Christian retail stores.Rebecca explains that AWSA is much more than a professional writers' organization. Its members consider themselves “AWSA sisters,” building a culture of cooperation rather than competition. Authors encourage one another, promote one another's work, and recognize that the ultimate objective is larger than individual book sales: getting the message of Jesus Christ into the world.In This EpisodeWhy AWSA partners its annual event with the Christian Product ExpoHow Christian authors and independent Christian retailers can support one anotherAWSA's training and mentoring opportunities for published authorsWhy book launches, marketing, and AI have become important parts of author trainingThe role of prayer, worship, and spiritual encouragement at the AWSA conferenceHow Christian writers can reach audiences through fiction, nonfiction, Bible studies, devotionals, children's books, gift books, and moreThe purpose of the Golden Scroll AwardsHow the Christian Market Book Awards provide opportunities beyond AWSA membershipWhy Christian authors need community rather than competitionEncouragement for aspiring writers who believe God has placed a message on their heartsAWSA's Protégé program for those who want help beginning their writing journeyWhy reaching children through Christian literature is especially importantHow every Christian writer can reach a different part of the harvestRebecca also describes the strong spiritual foundation of AWSA's conference—from prayer-warrior sessions and small-group prayer to worship and encouragement. As she emphasizes, Christian writers aren't simply producing products; they are carrying messages capable of reaching people with Christ.One of the central themes of the conversation is simple: no single author can reach everyone. Different writers, genres, testimonies, and ministries can reach different audiences. The more Christian writers are equipped and encouraged to fulfill their calling, the farther the Gospel can travel.Rebecca encourages established Christian authors who haven't yet “found their tribe” to explore AWSA, while aspiring authors can investigate opportunities to be trained and mentored as they develop the message God has placed within them.Recorded at Christian Product Expo 2026 in St. Charles, Missouri.KeywordsRebecca White, AWSA, Advanced Writers and Speakers Association, Christian Product Expo, CPE 2026, Christian authors, Christian writers, Christian publishing, Christian books, Christian women writers, Golden Scroll Awards, Christian Market Book Awards, Christian publishing industry, Christian retailers, independent Christian bookstores, Christian book marketing, author marketing, book launch, Christian speakers, Christian writing conference, Christian author conference, Christian ministry, Gospel, Kingdom of God, faith-based publishing, Christian children's books, Christian fiction, Christian nonfiction, Bible study books, devotional books, author mentorship, writing ministry, Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, TS WrightCall to ActionHas God placed a message on your heart?

But sustainable math improvement doesn't happen by trying to reach everyone at once—it starts by building the capacity of the people who will eventually lead the work.In this episode, we share the first year of one district's mathematics improvement journey. Rather than launching a system-wide initiative immediately, they focused on developing a small team of instructional leaders who first deepened their own understanding of computational fluency before supporting others. Through a summer leadership boot camp, monthly "book do" sessions, classroom implementation, and facilitator practice, they created a strong foundation for long-term success. Their story illustrates how learning fast, implementing slowly, and investing in leadership capacity can create momentum that lasts well beyond a single school year. In this episode, you'll explore:How one district launched a sustainable mathematics improvement journeyWhy building leadership capacity should come before large-scale implementationThe value of a summer leadership boot camp for establishing vision and focusHow "book do" sessions moved professional learning from discussion to actionWhy facilitator development is essential for scaling improvementHow grade-band leadership structures support distributed leadershipLessons leaders can apply when planning multi-year mathematics improvementIf you're leading mathematics improvement in a school or district, this episode offers a practical example of how to build leadership capacity, create momentum, and lay the foundation for sustainable change—one intentional step at a time.Show Notes PageLove the show?

McKay explores the profound impact of perspective on our daily struggles and long-term goals as he makes the case that deciding to "enjoy the ride" is the essential shift needed to turn average days into extraordinary ones. By looking at the creative hurdles behind the film Gravity and the real-life endurance of elite athletes, he illustrates how a mindset of abundance and gratitude allows us to navigate life's "gravity" without being crushed by it.McKay draws a powerful parallel between an astronaut's survival and our own pursuits, urging listeners to jettison the "junk" of fear and doubt that creates a drag on our momentum. He shares the story of a realtor named Lee, whose seventeen-year odyssey to conquer the Oceans Seven and the world's highest peaks proves that while we cannot control the weather or our circumstances, we can control our gratitude for the opportunity. Through the five most important decisions we must make and the simple wisdom of a schoolgirl's "seven wonders," this episode invites us to stop living for tomorrow and start "dancing" in the life we have today.Main Themes:The philosophy of "Enjoy the Ride" as a catalyst for better results and a healthier mindsetHow George Clooney helped solve a narrative block with a message of resolveLeaving excuses, fears, and worries in the "unknown" to start anewLessons in rescheduling and accepting uncontrollable circumstancesLearning to enjoy the "commute" of life rather than just the destinationA roller coaster video as a lesson in choosing our experienceHow noticing more options and resources opens new doorsThe Five Most Important Decisions: Setting values, friends, environment, career, and spouse once to guide the rest of the journeyWhy stepping out of comfort zones is required to build a "new you"How gaining experience along the way removes the need for excusesTop 10 Quotes:"If you decide to go back to Earth, then you gotta get on with it, sit back, and enjoy the ride.""Too often we get stressed or anxious at our goals rather than enjoying the things we learn along the way.""Abundance is really your ability to see more in your life - more options, more choices, more resources.""Do not follow where the path may lead.

In this episode of Humans of Agriculture, Oli sits down with Hamish Irvine, Head of Southern States at Halter Australia, to explore the technology, leadership and mindset driving one of agriculture's fastest-growing companies.Growing up on a mixed farming operation in western New South Wales, Hamish always imagined a future on the land. But after drought forced a change in direction, his career took him through the meat industry, global supply chains and commercial leadership before landing at Halter, the virtual fencing and livestock management company now transforming grazing systems across Australia and New Zealand.This conversation goes beyond the technology itself. Hamish shares the lessons that shaped his career, what it takes to build high-performing teams, and why feedback, accountability and culture are critical in fast-growing businesses. He also unpacks how Halter is helping farmers rethink labour, pasture management and livestock performance through virtual fencing and real-time animal insights.From career progression and leadership to innovation and the future of livestock farming, this is a conversation about embracing change and creating impact.Key insights from the conversation:How growing up on a family farm and experiencing drought shaped Hamish's career journeyWhy stepping outside traditional agriculture career pathways can create unexpected opportunitiesThe lessons learned from building a career across meat processing, sales and agribusiness leadershipWhat high-performance culture looks like in practice and why feedback is central to successHow Halter uses virtual fencing and animal insights to transform livestock managementThe three biggest drivers of value for farmers: pasture utilisation, labour efficiency, and animal healthWhy adopting new technology requires trust, clear outcomes and a willingness to changeHow innovation is reshaping the future of livestock farming and creating new opportunities across agricultureThe importance of leadership, ownership and accountability in building successful teamsWhy agriculture needs more people focused on solving industry challenges rather than following traditional career pathsChapters:00:00 Introduction to Halter and Hamish Irvine02:05 Career Path and Early Experiences04:37 The Importance of Diverse Experiences08:37 Reflections on Career Choices10:37 Leadership and Team Building at Halter12:17 Transitioning to Halter: Embracing Change20:13 High-Performance Culture at Halter26:56 The Art of Feedback and Communication30:18 The Birth of Halter: A Journey from Dairy Farming to Tech Innovation34:37 Expanding Horizons: Halter's Growth in Australia37:36 Understanding Farmer Needs: The Halter Approach39:59 Building Trust: Overcoming Skepticism in Agriculture43:45 Transformational Technology: The Future of Farming46:42 Bridging Agriculture and Technology: The Ideal Candidate48:07 The Future of Agriculture: Opportunities and Challenges Running a farm business comes with its challenges; from seasonal conditions to rising costs and cash flow uncertainty, there can be many unknowns along the way.

In this episode of The UK Flooring Podcast, Tom sits down with Dean Smith, owner of DCS Flooring Limited, for an honest conversation about growing a commercial flooring business, stepping away from the tools and finding a better balance between work and family life.Dean shares how he followed his dad into flooring after leaving college, before choosing a different route and building a business focused mainly on commercial projects.However, years of fitting demanding floors during the day, quoting at night and carrying the pressure of running a business began to take its toll. Dean found himself physically exhausted, struggling to make the numbers work and bringing the stress of the business home with him.That pressure eventually contributed to the breakdown of his relationship and forced him to reconsider what he wanted from his business and his life.Dean explains how taking on more fitters and coming off the tools helped him regain control. Although the transition was difficult, and the work initially struggled to catch up with the size of the team, it allowed him to focus on winning projects, managing the business and spending more time with his children.The conversation also explores the realities of managing employees, staying organised, using AI and automation, and why business owners can become so focused on systems that they forget the basic task of bringing new work through the door.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeHow Dean progressed from working alongside his dad to running DCS Flooring LimitedWhy he chose commercial flooring instead of following his dad into domestic retailThe physical and emotional impact of fitting floors while trying to run a businessHow business pressure affected Dean's relationship and family lifeWhy working harder did not necessarily mean making more moneyThe challenges of employing people before the workload has caught upWhy getting off the tools became a major turning pointHow Dean keeps his team happy through fairness, good pay and sensible working hoursWhy every employee is motivated by something differentHow early mornings help Dean complete his most important workWhy enjoying your job is often a choice rather than something that simply happensHow Dean uses ChatGPT, CRM systems and an AI receptionist in the businessThe risks of automating too much of the customer journeyWhy systems and processes can become a distraction from salesDean's plans to grow the company without losing the freedom he has createdMemorable Quote“We can all go to work and earn money, but ultimately you need to go to work and enjoy yourself.”Speaker InformationDean Smith is the owner of DCS Flooring Limited, a commercial flooring contractor based in Leicestershire.After spending much of his career fitting floors himself, Dean is now focused on growing his team, improving the company's systems and building a business that gives him more control, freedom and time with his family.Follow DCS Flooring Limited on Instagram:@dcsflooringltdVisit the DCS Flooring website:www.dcsflooringltd.co.ukWhere to Find The UK Flooring PodcastListen to The UK Flooring Podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts, or watch the latest episodes through the Cockerill & Co YouTube channel.Follow The UK Flooring Podcast on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and LinkedIn for new episodes, clips and conversations from across the flooring industry.

This is the exact work I've used with thousands of entrepreneurs to help them create more alignment, abundance, and success in their businesses.Save your spot for the free training and learn the tool that has transformed my life, my business, and the lives of my clients.www.marleyrose.ca/clearIn This Episode We Cover:Why business success is 95% an internal gameThe hidden reason entrepreneurs stay stuck despite doing "everything right"Why strategy alone won't create sustainable resultsThe difference between operating from alignment versus fearHow comparison pulls you away from your zone of geniusWhy your unique path won't look like anyone else'sThe importance of trusting your soul desireHow subconscious beliefs create your realityWhy forcing yourself to follow someone else's blueprint creates resistanceThe connection between passion, purpose, and profitabilityLessons from Michael Singer and The Surrender ExperimentHow faith and trust impact your entrepreneurial journeyWhy challenges don't mean your dream isn't meant for youThe role of mentors and coaches in revealing your blind spotsWhy clearing subconscious blocks can accelerate business growth Action Steps From This EpisodeTake a moment to reflect on the following questions:What parts of your business genuinely light you up?What are you currently doing because you think you should?Where have you outsourced your knowing to someone else?What would your business look like if you trusted yourself completely?Are you building your business from love and alignment, or fear and validation?What would happen if you simply followed what you love more fully?Remember: just because something isn't working right now doesn't mean it's not meant for you. Sometimes the answer isn't doing more. Sometimes the answer is coming back into alignment with who you truly are.

As souls in a human body, we are made up of different parts of being: the physical body, the mental body, the emotional body, the spiritual body. What I see often in spiritual spaces is that people address only one of these layers (the spiritual body) in order to align with their soul, activate their psychic abilities, etc. If you've done lots of work with the other layers, that's not a problem. However, if you've been doing spiritual work for years and you find yourself stuck and like you can't seem to move forward - the reason might be completely different to what you might think. In this episode, I discuss: The different parts of the being and why that's important to understandThe reasons you might feel stuck on your soul alignment/spiritual journeyWhy it's important to address all layers of your beingExamples of what it might look like if one specific layer needs more attentionMy own journey through the 4 layersThe question to ask yourself when you're stuck on your spiritual journey------------------------------------------------------For more inspiring content, follow me on IG @chiaranaala: https://www.instagram.com/chiaranaala/-------------------------------------------------------To remember and activate your unique light language, sign up for my 4-week light language course Echoes of Light: https://www.chiaranaala.com/echoesoflight--------------------------------------------------------If you're ready to go deeper or you want to know what working with me is like, sign up for one or several of my FREE sessions:*Remember Your Essence*: Connect to your soul's essence, activate your psychic abilities & start embodying your unique magic. https://www.chiaranaala.com/remember-your-essence-replay-optin*Aligned & Abundant*: Release past life and ancestral blocks, open up your channel & align with abundance. https://www.chiaranaala.com/aligned-and-abundant-replay-access*The Portal*: Heal your womb, activate your soul gifts and open up your channel: https://www.chiaranaala.com/the-portal-replay*Soul Awakening*: Remember your soul's essence, activate your psychic abilities and start embodying your magic: https://www.chiaranaala.com/soulawakeningreplay-optinAlternatively, you can also check out my FREE meditations: Open to Receive Meditation: Strengthen your intuition, deepen the connection with your soul & your guides, raise your vibration and open up to receiving: https://www.chiaranaala.com/opentoreceiveCosmic Connection Meditation: Open up your connection to the higher realms, meet your galactic guides & receive galactic transmissions: https://www.chiaranaala.com/cosmic-connection
In this episode, we explore Entrepreneurship, Fear, & Returning to Wholeness, and why building a business often forces us to confront our deepest fears, beliefs, and emotional patterns. Many entrepreneurs believe success, money, or achievement will resolve internal struggles — but true fulfillment comes from inner work, self-integration, and emotional healing.You'll learn why fear is internal (not external), how entrepreneurship becomes a path toward self-actualization, and how doing the inner work allows your business — and your life — to evolve naturally.If you're an entrepreneur, creator, or leader experiencing anxiety, pressure, or burnout, this episode reframes entrepreneurship as a powerful vehicle for personal growth and returning to wholeness.
Exposure Ninja Digital Marketing Podcast | SEO, eCommerce, Digital PR, PPC, Web design and CRO
Your best-ranking pages might be your biggest missed opportunity.We studied content across dozens of campaigns — from global brands like Stanley to fast-growing eCommerce stores — and found the same pattern everywhere: high-ranking pages generating almost no revenue. Not because the SEO was wrong, but because the content wasn't built to convert.After fixing this for clients, including a mortgage business (11,000 leads in 12 months) and cosmetics brand The Ordinary (451% revenue increase from content alone), we identified five things that separate content that converts from content that just ranks.In this podcast episode, I reveal:Why adding more CTAs can actually kill your conversion rate — and what to do insteadThe decision fatigue trap that sends ready-to-buy visitors away empty-handedHow to match your content to the right audience at the right moment in their journeyWhy interrupting the browsing experience costs you sales (and the seamless fix)The interactive tool strategy that generated 11,000 qualified leads in a single yearI'll take you over real examples — including some of the world's biggest brands getting this embarrassingly wrong — and walk you through exactly what high-converting content looks like in practice.And because ranking on Google is only half the battle now, I'll also cover how to get your content visible across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews — before your competitors figure this out.As I explain in this episode:"If your content isn't doing these five things, you might just be generating traffic and rankings for the sake of it — and not actually impacting your bottom line."Listen To These Episodes NextHow SEO Works in 2026 (and How You Can Win)https://exposureninja.com/podcast/373/How To Dominate AI Search Results in 2026https://exposureninja.com/podcast/372/The BEST SEO Strategies for 2026https://exposureninja.com/podcast/368/Request a Free Review of Your Websitehttps://exposureninja.com/review/

Unless you've been living under a rock this week, you've probably heard of Lindsey Vonn's comeback.After devastating injuries and stepping away from professional skiing for several years (her last Olympics was 8 years ago), she chose to come back…at the age of 41.And not because it was guaranteed to end with a podium.But because she still had something inside her that wanted to try again.That's what this episode is really about.We talk about:What resilience actually looks like (hint: it's not pretty or linear)Why a comeback doesn't have to mean “winning”The courage it takes to return after injury, burnout, or disappointmentHow redefining failure can completely change your fitness journeyWhy the process is always more powerful than the outcomeAs runners, athletes, and humans, we all face seasons where things don't go the way we planned. Injuries happen. Motivation dips. Life gets messy. And sometimes we start to question whether it's even worth trying again.Lindsey's story reminds us: showing up again is brave. Trying again is powerful. And your comeback doesn't have to look like anyone else's.If you've ever felt behind, stuck, or unsure whether you still “have it” — this conversation is for you.Because resilience isn't about never falling.It's about deciding you're not done yet.00:15 Lindsey Vonn's Comeback Story03:37 Lindsey Vonn's Olympic Journey07:03 Public Reaction and Resilience19:50 The Relentless Pursuit of Excellence20:58 Facing the Fear of Failure22:22 The Journey Over the Outcome26:42 Embracing the Process31:39 The Courage to Continue40:01 Adjusting Goals and Embracing ChangeJoin the 30 Day Running Reset and get a plan that will help you build a strong and injury-proof body by combining running and strength training in a way that actually works for runners like you.Gain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.

In this episode of The Fertility Podcast, I'm joined by Catherine Lightfoot, ADHD coach and founder of Rewired Circles, to talk about her experience of navigating IVF as a neurodivergent person.Catherine was working in a senior HR role while undergoing fertility treatment and dealing with the mental load of a delayed ADHD diagnosis. She joins me to talk about the emotional toll of masking, the challenges of advocating for yourself in a system that does not always recognise neurodivergence, and the importance of creating support spaces that actually meet people where they are.This is our first episode covering neurodivergence and fertility, and I want to thank Catherine for bringing this conversation forward. If you suspect you may be neurodivergent, or if you've been struggling to articulate how this process is affecting you, I hope this episode offers support and language for what you might be feeling.What we discuss in this episode:Catherine's delayed ADHD diagnosis and how it overlapped with her fertility journeyWhy she and her partner opted for early fertility testing and how a surprise male factor diagnosis shifted everythingThe emotional whiplash of having a clear process derailed by COVID delaysHow hyperfocus, masking, and people-pleasing made it harder to ask for helpOverworking and pretending everything was fine while secretly undergoing injections and treatmentThe moment she realised she could not cope alone anymoreWhat IVF felt like as a neurodivergent person and why it is easy to become overwhelmed and disconnectedThe challenge of advocating for yourself when you are not sure what your needs areThe risks of masking and burnout in high-pressure jobs while going through treatmentHer reflections on memory loss, dysregulation, and why she misremembered the number of cycles she hadWhy support groups are powerful but may not be the right fit for everyone at every stageHow Catherine's coaching and lived experience helped her move from burnout to self-awarenessThe shocking mental health statistics for women with ADHD and why fertility support needs to evolveWhy the fertility and neurodivergent overlap is an urgent area of focus for workplaces and support providersHer top advice for anyone navigating fertility and ADHD, especially in silenceA note on support and asking for helpSo many of us keep it all in. We wait until it gets really bad before we share anything. But Catherine reminds us that asking for help does not need to be dramatic or all-encompassing. You can start small. Tell one trusted colleague at work. Let one friend know. Give someone permission to be your backup or just your quiet support.If you are masking and managing everything...

No matter how much personal transformation work we've done, there will always be layers we haven't yet uncovered and places within us that still need healing. In this episode, I'm joined by Master Coach Robyn Graham to discuss what it means to heal from a place of connection and safety, and how everything begins to shift–for you and your coaching clients–when you open yourself to a more holistic way of thinking about growth and change.Robyn Graham is the host of a globally acclaimed podcast, The Robyn Graham Show, and the best-selling author of You, Me, and Anxiety: Take Action Over Anxiety to Enjoy Being You. She recently completed Master Coach Training with me, and today she shares the powerful shifts she has made in her life and business since then. After years of success as a business coach, Robyn has transitioned to focus more on personal coaching, specifically helping women navigate motherhood in relation to parenting and anxiety. Her approach is a testament to the deep healing and transformation that unfold when we create true safety within ourselves and in community.At the heart of Master Coach Training is the idea that to help others transform, we must first do our own healing work. Even after years of self-development, there can still be unprocessed trauma or nervous system dysregulation that keeps us disconnected from our deepest self. When we experience feeling safe–within ourselves and within a community–that's when healing can finally emerge. You'll hear from Robyn about how being surrounded by like-minded women in an encouraging environment is an invaluable experience. The deep healing and transformation that happens in a community of women is truly the magic of Master Coach Training.As coaches, we have a powerful opportunity to model what it looks like to know ourselves and lead from a place of peace. We don't just change our lives when we do that inner work; we ripple that peace and presence out to everyone around us. I can't wait for you to hear more about what's possible when we heal from a place of safety in this episode.What you'll learn:What self-connection and attuning to our emotions really means and why it has such a profound impactThe importance of connectedness in coaching and how to build greater awareness of itHow Master Coach Training offers permission to be vulnerable and a space to ask questions so you can move forward in your journeyWhy true strength means being grounded in yourself and open to connection with othersHow Master Coach Training provides you with the tools and guidance needed to work on your coaching businessYou can read the full show notes here.About Robyn GrahamDr. Robyn Graham is the founder of Robyn Graham, LLC.

When the #MeToo movement encouraged women to speak their truths, former nurse Stephanie Maley felt a deep stirring to finally release the story she had carried for decades—one shaped by abandonment, sexual abuse, and the quiet survival that followed.In this moving conversation with Lizbeth Meredith, Stephanie shares how writing her memoir No Longer That Girl: Retracing the Scars of the Past and Present became a pathway to healing and self‑forgiveness.Together, they explore the courage it takes to revisit childhood wounds, how COVID and isolation forced her to confront unresolved pain, and why sharing stories matters for every survivor who has been told to stay quiet.
