Call center entrepreneur Richard Blank joins Doug Utberg to unpack what it really takes to build—and survive—25 years in one of the most volatile industries in business.This isn't a clean success story. It's a conversation about attrition, lost clients, rebuilding from zero, and making the decision to keep going when quitting would be easier.Richard shares how he built a call center in Costa Rica from scratch, scaling through secondhand infrastructure, constant turnover, and unpredictable clients. From losing employees overnight to watching deals collapse, he explains why resilience in people-driven businesses isn't optional—it's the business model.They explore the mechanics behind churn, the reality of outbound calling in a world that claims it's “dead,” and how systems—not luck—create stability over time. The conversation also dives into leadership philosophy: why promoting from within builds stronger teams, how empathy becomes a competitive advantage, and why transparency with clients prevents bigger failures later.At its core, this episode is about a single defining moment: choosing to continue when everything suggests you should stop. Because long-term success isn't built on avoiding setbacks—it's built on surviving them.TL;DR* Every business with people has churn—plan for it or fail* Outbound calling isn't dead, but it demands higher skill* Systems reduce chaos, but never eliminate it* Promoting from within builds trust and long-term stability* Transparency with clients prevents downstream failure* Resilience is built through repetition, not motivation* The hardest moment is deciding whether to continueMemorable Lines* “It's two steps forward and three steps back—but still forward.”* “You need to buy 30 seconds—no one gives you 10 minutes.”* “If you never get past the pitch, you never get to pitch.”* “You can lose money and recover—but losing self-respect is different.”* “Don't drown trying to save someone who won't swim.”GuestRichard Blank — Call center founder and operator25+ years building and scaling a Costa Rica–based call center in a high-churn, high-competition industry. Known for his focus on culture, internal growth, and long-term client relationships.

I pulled together three of my favorite conversations around what it actually takes to start, endure pain, and stay in the fight when quitting feels easier. We talk about the moments that break people, the standards that keep you moving, and why real growth usually starts with the thing you've been avoiding. If you're in a season where you need courage, this one will meet you there.Links To Full EpisodesMatt Johnson: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0l3vVPPUpqAKDawPsF2VXk?si=PRGzNPvxTJaWtBIDjdwIsATerrence Ogden: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2l0uKIhK7O68jg5dd1nonp?si=m-f5n7d7SkaKA75LpQqN8QRob Sembiante: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4JhbaYea78jWIK9qEY2N0M?si=kuWXvY4oRJyldPbBx5xUrAConnect With MattWebsite: http://themattking.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattking.atx TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mattking.atx LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kingmatthewr/ #gobundance #podcast The Tribe of High-Performing Men: http://gobundance.com/tribe

Infertility, IVF, donor eggs, and pregnancy loss — how do you keep going after years of grief and loss on the journey to parenthood?In this episode, Constance Lewis shares her six-year infertility journey that included low AMH, stage 2 endometriosis, multiple failed IUIs, three rounds of IVF, and two miscarriages. After learning her husband carried a balanced translocation that made pregnancy extremely unlikely, they faced the difficult decision to pursue donor eggs in order to continue growing their family.Constance opens up about the emotional impact of infertility and losing a baby, the complicated feelings that can follow pregnancy after loss, and the reality that IVF is not always the guarantee people think it is. She also shares how her family navigated a serious medical diagnosis for their son and how that experience inspired the children's book Miles and the Colorful Capes of Feelings.This conversation explores infertility, IVF after miscarriage, choosing donor eggs, pregnancy after loss, baby loss, and finding hope through grief and loss while building a family.

What do you do when life breaks open? When your energy is unpredictable. When your routines don't fit anymore. When you're in the middle of a hard season — not on the other side of it. In this deeply personal episode, I'm sharing what it actually looks like to maintain healthy rhythms during chemotherapy, homeschooling, and real life — without forcing myself into routines that no longer fit my capacity. This isn't about doing more. It's about building simple, sustainable habits that bend instead of break. You'll learn: How to stay consistent with workouts during hard seasons Why “if I can't do it on my worst day, I need to reevaluate it” changes everything The difference between releasing control and losing structure How reducing decision fatigue protects long-term consistency Why micro workouts and flexible programming matter more than perfection What it looks like to keep healthy routines when energy is low How to adapt fitness rhythms during illness, treatment, or overwhelming life seasons If you've ever felt like you “fell off track” because life got heavy — this episode will help you rethink consistency entirely. Hard seasons don't excuse us from caring for our bodies. They clarify how we do it. We talk about: Christian fitness and faith-based health rhythms How to stay anchored in busy seasons Workout flexibility and scaling exercises Why perfection isn't required for progress How to build routines that hold on your weakest days Because consistency isn't about intensity. It's about rhythms that meet you where you are. Join The Stronger Collective Waitlist If you're ready to build strength, consistency, and healthy habits that actually last — even during busy or heavy seasons — join the waitlist for The Stronger Collective. Inside, we build faith-centered fitness rhythms that remove decision fatigue, protect consistency, and help you move forward without constantly starting over.

This week, we wanted to ask a question that has been in our hearts and on our minds for years: Is it possible to try to make positive change in the world, and still stay healthy and sane? Dutch writer, political philosopher, and “recovering diplomat” Nori Spauwen believes that the answer is yes – even if it's not always easy to strike the right balance. We chatted with Nori about “healthy” activism and training yourself to feel empowered in response to difficult news. If you've been overwhelmed lately (has anyone not?), this is a conversation for you.   Also in this week's episode: a successful European Citizens' Initiative that will make it easier for European women to procure abortion across borders, and a very Bad Week for Greece's former finance minister-turned-public intellectual Yanis Varoufakis stemming from a Kylie Minogue concert 36 years ago.   Resources for this episode:   Re: Iranians in Europe (documentary) My Voice My Choice on Instagram (a masterclass in how to run an online campaign in 2026) How to launch a European Citizens' Initiative  Our episode from August 2025 in which Wojciech discusses the Stop Destroying Videogames Europeans Citizens' Initiative Nori's website Her book, Actie!

In this episode, we dive into a conversation that feels deeply personal—especially if you're in a season of striving, questioning, or quietly wondering, Is this it? Inspired by Colette's recent reading of A Million Miles in a Thousand Years, we reflect on success, purpose, and why even the seasons that look “good” from the outside can feel surprisingly disorienting and exhausting.We lean into the uncomfortable middle—the stretch where you've worked hard for something but still feel unsure of what's next. We talk about the younger parts of ourselves that flare up when plans don't unfold as expected, the urge to pull back when it all feels like too much, and the realization that joy may not come from avoiding struggle—but from staying in it long enough to be changed. Episode Highlights: [0:03] – We're back on the mic and jumping straight into existential midlife questions.[1:01] – Colette shares how reading A Million Miles in a Thousand Years sparked a deeper reflection on what makes a life “well lived.”[5:13] – The power of story: Are we meant to attain something—or be transformed by the search?[8:59] – Familiarity as the greatest seducer: Why we stay stuck even in “comfortable” unhappiness.[10:56] – Laura opens up about meeting a young, entitled part of herself when life doesn't go according to plan.[15:02] – Coaching yourself through emotional overwhelm: movement, naming feelings, and creating space.[18:30] – The fear of making the wrong choice—and why meaning matters more than accolades.[24:40] – Forcing yourself into growth: committing before you feel ready (TEDx talks, book deals, Machu Picchu).[27:13] – The marathon as metaphor: Laura's renewed commitment to the New York City Marathon and doing hard things differently.[31:35] – Why suffering may actually be the pathway to joy.[33:49] – When you want to quit everything: the difference between discernment and hiding.[35:30] – Our closing thesis: Happiness isn't eliminating obstacles—it's being willing to stay in the game.If today's discussion resonated with you or sparked curiosity, please rate, follow, and share "Insights from the Couch" with others.

Pastor Tom shares a devotional from 1 Thessalonians 5:17

If you've ever fallen in life, the words of Jesus in the Book of John offer, not only hope, but a remedy! God doesn't condemn you - God still has a plan for you - and with God, you can change! -----Official WebsiteInstagramTwitterFacebook

The prophet, Isaiah, lived during a difficult period for the ancient Israelites. Turning away from faith in God and under the control of corrupt kings, the nation entered a period of darkness. They needed hope more than anything.In our discussion this week, we will talk about this human condition. Today, we are really no different from people in ancient times: We all need a relationship with our Creator.Isaiah 40:31 says, “Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”Don't those words give you a feeling of peace and calm? You can say them to yourself, with no one around, and begin to feel God's strong arms wrapping you in love. He wants you to be free from all the strongholds that keep you from your destiny.Wouldn't you like to spend the rest of this week at rest emotionally and mentally? You can. This is the Lord's will for you, as we heard in this famous passage from the book of IsaiahLet's pray. Lord, your perfect love always comes through for us. Just as you didn't abandon your people long ago, we know you will remember us. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

The Transfiguration of Jesus reveals the glory of God, offering us hope as we face our tough times in this life. (Lectionary #25) February 28, 2026 - St. William Catholic Church - Foxboro, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

Back To Eden: Week 7 - Keep Going West / Pastor Jeff Bowman by Hope City Church

When pressure comes, we press in! No matter how tough it may feel, when we choose to press in, we experience God's power, we are refined, and we are transformed, moving from glory to glory.“I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you.” - Philippians 3:14-15 NKJVThree ways we keep going in times of pressure:1. Press in through prayer2. Prioritize being in God's presence3. Practice a life of praiseScripture shows us that moments of opposition are often the moments when prayer becomes most necessary and most powerful. In Nehemiah's day, the people rebuilt the wall while surrounded by resistance, working withone hand and holding a weapon in the other, staying alert, prayerful, and dependent on God. The pressure did not stop the work. It drove them deeper into reliance on the Lord.Jesus modeled this same response in Luke 22. In the greatest moment of pressure He had ever faced, He withdrew to pray. The intensity did not cause Him to retreat. It caused Him to press in. And in that place ofprayer, He committed Himself to the will of the Father and found new strength. Though the trial remained, He rose strengthened, resolved, and ready to walk forward in obedience.Don't stop halfway.Don't quit under pressure.Press in, and keep going!Restore Church | Yorkville, ILSunday Mornings | 10 AMJordan & Melissa Gash, Pastorshttps://www.restorechurchyorkville.com

Whether you're a runner, someone tackling a big goal, or just trying to figure out what it means to keep going, I think you'll find something here to encourage you. Let's get started.Welcome back to Spirit of EQ! I'm your host, Eric Pennington, and I'm excited to invite you into a powerful episode that goes deep into the emotional journey behind running a marathon—and the life lessons we can pull from it.I'm joined once again by my good friend and guest, J.A. Dava, who many of you might remember from his incredible insights on sales during his last visit. Today, though, we're shifting from business to the marathon course, and trust me, the parallels to life are striking.J.A. is a multi-marathon runner, and in our conversation, he opens up about his life-altering heart attack, what it really feels like to hit “the wall” at mile 22, and how the support of others—sometimes even complete strangers—makes all the difference.We talk honestly about the tough moments, the battles with ego, those humbling setbacks, and what it means to rely on community.I share my own observations—like watching my son-in-law run his first marathon and reflecting on how life sometimes feels exactly like those endurance miles: full of hope early on, then testing you when you least expect it. We cover the importance of rest, the power of discipline over motivation, and why your “why” matters for whatever marathon you're running—on the road, or just in everyday life.Moments00:00 "Life-Saving Health Wake-Up Call"06:54 "Marathon Missteps: Food & Hydration"13:24 "Reflections on Marathons and Life"17:23 "Mile 13: Keep Going"21:09 Running Without Proper Training31:21 Marathon Reflections and Achievement32:20 "Persistence and Emotional Triumph"42:14 Empathy Struggles and Growth48:00 Success Requires Support & Preparation49:23 "What Do I Really Want?"57:28 "Prioritization Over Training Costs Result"01:00:42 "Walking Away and Reflecting"01:07:12 "Overcoming the Fear of Starting"01:14:48 What's It Take to Be You?01:18:20 "Evaluate Your Inner Circle"Here are 3 takeaways you can apply to your journey—whether you're chasing fitness goals or professional ones:

In 2004, 16-year-old Daniel Yuen left his home in New Jersey and travelled to San Bernardino, California to enrol in a so-called "tough love" bootcamp. Daniel had been struggling with depression for years. Desperate for help Daniel's family was promised that the CEDU Running Springs facility would help their son. Instead, he vanished.In the podcast Lost Kids from USG Audio, journalist Josh Bloch dives into the world of teen bootcamps.

HIIIII MY LOVE:) I feel like if you are meant to listen into an episode with THIS type of title, then this message is for you. LET'S BE REAL...we all go through seasons and chapters where we question if we are doing the "right" thing or on the "right" path. TBH boo, I've been there MORE THAN ONCE. But if you are in that season right now, please know that you are not alone and THIS is part of the process :) I talk about times where I've questioned my path and how I have and STILL am navigating those doubts. I hope this episode reminds you that you will FIGURE IT OUT and there is a future version of you that NEEDS you to KEEP GOING. I'm cheering you on.Love, Randi @randi.paulos

From selling 50 tickets to backyard pop-up events in two weeks to serving 112 meals per shift, Chef Patty shares the real story of building a culturally rich brand in Phoenix's competitive food scene.In this deep dive, you'll hear about the challenges of launching a mobile kitchen, the gas leak incident that nearly ended everything, how she balances family, adjunct teaching, and entrepreneurship, and her strategic menu design that uses gateway dishes like suya tacos to introduce customers to authentic Nigerian flavors.
