    In this Dad Edge Podcast episode, I'm joined by my son Ethan for a powerful father-son conversation about money, mistakes, and mindsets. But this episode goes way beyond budgeting tips. It's about the deeper fear, pressure, and responsibility men feel when it comes to providing and preparing the next generation.   We explore everything from cost of living fears to smart saving habits, early investing, and the emotional rollercoaster of becoming financially independent. Ethan shares candid reflections about what worries him most as a 19-year-old and the surprising movie that inspired his money mindset. This episode is filled with laughs, lessons, and the kind of intentional parenting that creates legacy.     EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS [0:00] – Introduction [1:02] – Why talking to our kids about money matters more than ever [3:49] – Celebrating transformation: The First Form Dad of the Month [15:21] – What scares Ethan most about adulting and financial independence [19:36] – The 20% rule and why most people never start saving [29:23] – Ethan's frugal mindset shift (inspired by a Jim Carrey movie!) [38:58] – Understanding assets vs. liabilities and why real estate matters [46:34] – Passive income, investing in apartments, and building wealth young [49:11] – The challenge to aggressively save while you have no bills [55:12] – New resource: 25 questions to spark deeper conversations in the car     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Start Financial Conversations Early Your kids are already forming money beliefs—talking about finances now sets them up with real tools and confidence. 2. Fear of Failing as a Provider Is Real Ethan opens up about the weight of becoming a provider and why young men need reassurance and education, not shame. 3. Saving While You Have No Bills is a Superpower We talk about how living at home can be a golden window to stack savings, invest early, and get a head start on life. 4. Assets Build Freedom—Liabilities Drain It From real estate to investments, we break down the difference between money that works for you vs. money you spend for status. 5. Legacy is Intentional, Not Accidental These conversations are how we pass down values, strategy, and strength. The way you talk about money sets your family's future.       LINKS & RESOURCES   25 Questions to Spark Connection with Your Kids: https://www.thedadedge.com/kidquestions Join the Dad Edge Alliance: https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance First Form Products: 1stphorm.com/dadedge Dad Edge Podcast Episodes: https://www.thedadedge.com/1391       If this episode sparked new conversations at your dinner table—or made you rethink your financial game plan—please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast.

    Welcome to a special Halloween edition of The Spiritual Sleepover, with our bestie Steffi Hill, aka Spirit Sis! We are diving into all things spooky — from ghost stories and witch trials to silly games and soulful reflections, as we discuss embracing cycles of death and rebirth, honoring our ancestors, and creating new rituals as the seasons shift. We explore the history and lingering wounds of the Salem Witch Trials, unpacking how fear, patriarchy, and property rights shaped both a "witch wound" and a "sisterhood wound" that still influence women today. Steffi brings her storytelling magic with a dramatic retelling of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and of course, what would a Spiritual Sleepover be without games?! Join us for some fun, spooky vibes, and some much-needed laughs as we dive into Halloween-themed games. Through laughter, insight, and a touch of silliness, this episode is a celebration of feminine power, seasonal magic, and healing for the collective.   Key Takeaways: How the Salem Witch Trials reveal deep ancestral wounds around feminine power, fear, and sisterhood that still shape society today How reclaiming the original meaning of “witch” — “one who chooses” — invites us to own our power, intuition, and role as co-creators of our reality Why this time of year is a sacred time to reflect on cycles of death and rebirth, connect with ancestors, and align with nature's rhythms Why supporting and uplifting one another — especially in the face of fear or oppression — is essential to transforming the “witch wound” into collective empowerment Silly and spooky games to bring some lighthearted joy to the season   Want to attend a Spiritual Sleepover LIVE?

    In this episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, host Michelle Oravitz breaks down one of the most common fertility myths, the belief that pregnancy can only occur on the exact day of ovulation. Popular culture and even many fertility apps often portray conception as a single-day event, but science tells a different story. The truth is, sperm can survive in the reproductive tract for up to five days, creating a much wider fertile window than most people realize. Michelle explains what the 5-day fertile window really means, why the “Day 14 ovulation” rule is misleading, and how women can better understand their unique cycles. She also shares practical guidance on tracking ovulation accurately using basal body temperature (BBT) charting, cervical mucus observation, LH strips, and hormone-monitoring devices. Key Takeaways:  How cervical mucus supports sperm survival and why hydration is essential. The impact of irregular cycles caused by thyroid health, PCOS, stress, or travel. Why fertility apps often fail to predict ovulation accurately. The best timing and frequency of intercourse to increase the chances of conception How intercourse during the luteal phase may help prime the immune system to receive an em Disclaimer: The information shared on this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

    In this Dad Edge Podcast episode, I'm joined by Joel Staley, husband, father, and fasting expert—but the real story here isn't about weight loss. It's about the emotional and relational weight men carry and how mastering the physical body can help men show up more powerfully for their families.   We unpack Joel's transformation from feeling “fluffy” and distracted to leading his wife and kids with presence and purpose. Joel doesn't hold back when talking about how his physical condition was limiting his energy, sex drive, self-respect, and ultimately his connection at home. This isn't a gimmicky fitness episode—it's a raw look at what happens when a man decides he's no longer okay with coasting.       EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS   [0:00] – Joel's wake-up call and early struggles with self-image [4:18] – Feeling physically present but emotionally absent as a dad [8:20] – Why getting shredded wasn't the real goal [12:03] – How fasting gave him structure, confidence, and clarity [16:55] – Leading your family starts with leading yourself [20:41] – Joel's marriage breakthrough through vulnerability [24:18] – Sex drive, shame, and physical transformation [28:36] – Teaching his kids about delayed gratification and purpose [33:02] – The real impact of watching your dad take care of himself [37:14] – Daily disciplines that keep him grounded and focused [40:57] – Joel's final challenge for every dad listening       5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. When You Lead Yourself, You Lead Better at Home Joel discovered that when he took full ownership of his physical health, it cascaded into better decisions, emotional presence, and connection with his family. 2. Your Body is a Spiritual and Emotional Instrument Getting fit wasn't just about looking good—it gave Joel the energy and confidence to show up for his wife and kids like never before. 3. Fasting Is a Discipline That Builds Mental Toughness Joel explains how structured fasting helped him reclaim control and break unhealthy patterns that were sabotaging his time and attention at home. 4. Physical Change Can Spark Relational Breakthroughs As Joel got healthier, his marriage improved—not because of appearance, but because of how he began showing up with integrity and consistency. 5. Your Kids Notice Everything Joel shares how his daughters now see him as someone who takes care of himself and others—and how that's creating a new generational standard.         LINKS & RESOURCES   25 Questions to Spark Connection with Your Partner: https://www.thedadedge.com/25questions Learn More About Joel's Coaching & Programs: https://shedfatfast.com Follow Joel on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joelstaleyfitness Joel's GoFundMe:  https://gofund.me/b8fcf7ca3 Join the Dad Edge Alliance: https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance Dad Edge Podcast Episodes: thedadedge.com/1390       If this episode pushed you to confront your own health or leadership gaps, rate, review, follow, and share.

    Legacy isn't just about what you leave behind — it's about the opportunities you create today. This week on the Exit Strategies Radio Show, host Corwyn J. Melette talks with George Ellison, co-founder of Propbee and former CEO of two publicly traded real estate companies, about how families can use technology to start building real estate legacies that last for generations.Propbee uses the same AI, data, and math that major institutional investors use — but makes it accessible to first-time and small investors. From finding, financing, inspecting, and insuring properties to managing and tracking your investment online, Propbee simplifies the entire process so you can focus on what matters most: building your legacy.Key Takeaways:05:00 – The truth about real estate investing: Despite what many believe, 95% of rental homes are owned by small, independent landlords — not big institutions.06:03 – Flipping the script: Propbee “gives away” the same powerful tools, algorithms, and processes once reserved for Wall Street, helping families buy and manage homes with ease.07:45 – A seamless investing experience: From mortgage to inspection to insurance, everything happens within one site — you never have to leave the platform.09:06 – Why focus on first-time investors: George shares his personal mission to help families move from fear into action through education and technology.10:21 – The size of the opportunity: There are over 17 million single-family rental homes in the U.S.—and most are owned by individuals just like you.13:01 – Step-by-step process: How investors can search, analyze, finance, inspect, and close on a home—all in one place with Prop B.17:04 – Debunking the myth: Why the idea that “Wall Street owns all the homes” is exaggerated—and how this market remains a mom-and-pop opportunity.20:02 – Leveling the playing field: Propbee gives small investors the same data-driven insights used by major real estate firms to set rent, analyze markets, and grow wealth.Learn how to utilize data, technology, and professional tools typically reserved for institutional investors to build wealth and legacy through real estate.Connect with George:Website: https://www.propbee.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/george-ellison-171643373Connect with Corwyn:Contact Number: 843-619-3005Instagram:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/exitstrategiesradioshow/⁠FB Page:⁠ https://www.facebook.com/exitstrategiessc/⁠Youtube:⁠ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxoSuynJd5c4qQ_eDXLJaZA⁠Website:⁠ https://www.exitstrategiesradioshow.com⁠Linkedin:⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/in/cmelette/⁠Shoutout to our Sponsor: Country Boy HomesDo you remember your grandma's front porch?

    What if the fastest way to fill your pipeline wasn't chasing new leads… but reigniting the ones you already have? If you've ever stared at a list of past prospects who never said “yes” and thought, “They're gone for good,” think again. Those dormant leads could actually be your next high-ticket clients – if you know how to re-engage them strategically. In episode 462 of Amplify Your Success Podcast, I sat down with Mandi Ellefson, founder of Hands-Off CEO, to uncover a powerful (yet simple) system to reactivate cold leads and close 1–2 new deals in just 30 days without paid ads or exhausting outreach. Mandi shares the exact reactivation framework her clients use to turn “quiet” prospects into $100 - $500k in new revenue. Plus, she reveals how to use automation, personalization, and timing to rebuild trust fast. If your sales pipeline has stalled or you're ready to turn missed opportunities into momentum, this conversation will help you see your “old” leads in a whole new light.   Key Takeaways: [04:32] Why most entrepreneurs leave thousands in potential revenue sitting in their CRM – and how to fix it. 08:47] The 4-word email reactivation strategy that reignites stalled deals, without sounding salesy or doing awkward follow up.. 12:10] How to identify which leads are actually ready to buy (and stop wasting time chasing the wrong ones). [16:03] The psychology behind why leads go quiet — and what rebuilds trust instantly. [21:55] How to personalize outreach at scale — without spending hours sending follow-up messages. [26:12] How reactivating old leads can create a snowball effect of referrals and repeat business.  [30:45] The 30-day roadmap for tripling your pipeline and closing high-value clients. About The Guest: Mandi Ellefson is the founder of Hands‑Off CEO, where she guides service firms to break free from daily delivery, win 6–7 figure deals, and boost profits by as much as 600% by leveraging their ‘Invisible Advantage.' After battling emotional and physical burnout, she rebuilt her business to create more freedom — and grew a multi‑million‑dollar net worth before the age of 40. Today, she teaches other owners to do the same, and uses her platform to be a stand for freedom and sponsor at‑risk children in Cambodia, aligning growth with deeper purpose.

    The Crisis in College Mental Health: An Interview with Dr. Pardis Mahdavi, PhD Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy talk with Dr. Pardis Mahdavi about the growing mental-health crisis among college students. Pardis shares insights from her years in higher education leadership—revealing how rising costs, outdated systems, and lack of purpose are driving student anxiety and burnout. Together they explore what therapists, universities, and communities can do to realign education with meaning, wellbeing, and real-world readiness. About Our Guest: Dr. Pardis Mahdavi, Ph.D. Pardis Mahdavi is an author, educator, and entrepreneur whose work spans human rights, education policy, and consciousness. A former university president and provost, she is the author of seven nonfiction books including The Book of Queens (Hachette Books, 2023) and Riding (Duke University Press, 2024). She currently leads Entheon Journeys and The Bondery House, fostering connection and expanded awareness. Key Takeaways for Therapists College students face unprecedented levels of anxiety and depression—driven by systemic disconnection, financial stress, and unclear purpose. Higher education often fails to evolve with societal change, leaving students feeling unprepared and unseen. Preventive supports like mindfulness and mentorship should be built into the college experience. Therapists can help students find meaning, manage uncertainty, and advocate for collaborative care across campus systems.

    Go to www.LearningLeader.com for full show notes The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader My guest: Dave Berke is a retired US Marine Corps Officer, TOPGUN Instructor, and now a leadership instructor and speaker with Echelon Front, where he serves as Chief Development Officer. As a F/A-18 pilot, he deployed twice from the USS John C Stennis in support of combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. He spent three years as an Instructor Pilot at TOPGUN where he served as the Training Officer, the senior staff pilot responsible for the conduct of the TOPGUN course. Notes: July 2001: Plans Don't Survive Contact - Dave's Top Gun graduation exercise as flight lead. Wingman yells, "Showtime one-one break right!" - an F-5 snuck into formation. Dave was staring at the radar instead of looking out, had to fall out of formation, and ended up at the back instead of leading from the front. Mission successful, but nothing like he planned. Dave: "The outcome was still really good... except it was nothing like I thought it was going to be." Lesson: You're planning for the success of the outcome, not how you're going to do it. The most important attribute in a leader is humility. To be effective, you must be able to listen, learn, be flexible, and admit you're wrong sometimes. One of the biggest issues they deal with when working with leaders is ego and/or the inability to be humble. As leaders, we need to be self-aware enough to realize when our ego is getting the best of us. And surrounding ourselves with people who will help us know when that is happening as well. Be Fluid with Plans, Deliberate with Outcomes - Be really fluid and loose with plans, but deliberate about aligning the team on outcomes. Dave grew up as a control freak, OCD planner. Dave: "In life, it's just not how life works... If you can align on the mission and outcome, and you are very open-minded that there are a lot of different ways to get there, you're far more likely to be successful." The military saying, "The enemy gets a vote." Ryan's quarterback coach after an interception: "He's on scholarship too, you know?" Process: How You Create It Matters Most - Process is important, but how you create it matters most. If you agree on the outcome, the conversation should be less about agreement, more about "When you talk about step one, what are you thinking? How does this lead to step two?" The process has to be organic. When you create it, you're more likely to maneuver around challenges. Book Dedication: Chris and Kat - Book dedicated to Corporal Chris Leon and his mother, Kat. Chris was a radio operator on Dave's 13-man Anglo team. June 20, 2006, Chris was killed by an enemy sniper in Iraq - first Anglican Marine killed there. Dave's son is Matthew Leon Burke - took Chris's last name. Chris's mom Kat is Aunt Kat to Dave's family. Dave: "I always say I really deep down wish I didn't know Kat, because that would've meant Chris came home and life just went on. But that's not what happened." Chris taught bravery. Kat taught strength. Top Gun Reality: It's About the Team - 1986 Top Gun most impactful movie on Dave's life at 14. But the movie depicts a lone wolf. Marine Corps teaches: Your contribution to the team matters most. A really good pilot who's self-centered will do more damage than a slightly less capable pilot who's a real team player. Dave: "If there's ever a team sport, it's going into combat... It's not about you. It's about the team." Trust: Action, Not Description - Echelon codifies relationships: Trust, respect, listening, influence. Trust is the cornerstone. Dave: "If you don't trust me, I could be good at so many things. If there is a trust gap, there's going to be a problem in the relationship and team." Trust is action you take.  Ego: The Universal Challenge - When Echelon works with companies, challenges are almost always connected to ego. Dave: "Our egos tend to wreak havoc at each level of organization." From birth, the ego drives us down the wrong path. When debating plans, ego says, "You're right, he's wrong." Building good leadership is managing egos. Dave: "Humility is the most important attribute in a leader. All the attributes, humility is number one, and we don't waffle on that." Humility Enables Everything Else - Dave worked with the biggest, toughest SEALs. Attribute most critical to success: humility. Ability to listen, learn, be flexible, change, admit you're wrong, and go with someone else's plan. It even affects fitness. Humility touches everything. Doesn't diminish other attributes, but allows you to strengthen them.  Teaching Humility: Subordinate Your Ego - You can't tell someone with a big ego to be humble. Dave: "The biggest challenge with someone else's ego is not their ego. It's your ego's response to it." Most counterintuitive thing: If you clash with Ryan, Dave has to subordinate his ego to Ryan's. Lower your ego: "Hey Ryan, I've been pushing back hard, I realize I'm not listening." Natural reaction: Ryan's ego starts to drop. Over time, collaborate more. You connect success to the ability to control the ego. Dave: "Humility is the measurement of how much control you have over your ego." What you give is usually what you get. It's reciprocal. Care About Team More Than Yourself - When your people see you working hard to clear paths or block an egomaniac boss, they'll run through walls for you. Outcome of a good relationship: You care about the team, the team cares about you. That selfless act shows you care about them more than yourself. Dave: "That's how you show that you care about them more than yourself, and that's what a leader's job is, to care about the team more than you care about yourself. That's parenting, that's marriage." Extreme Ownership - Book Extreme Ownership changed Dave's understanding. When you take ownership, take ownership of everything. Caveat: Not things you literally don't control. But you have ownership over everything, even just how you react. After Chris was killed, Dave said, "That's war, nothing we can do." Problem: When he embraced it wasn't his responsibility, it meant he didn't have as much to change. Should have asked: "What is everything we can do to make sure this doesn't happen again?" The tendency is to undershoot ownership. Try to take it to the extreme. If you can take ownership of everything you can control, you get more influence over the outcome. Detachment: A Superpower - Dave: "Detachment is a superpower" - (1) almost nobody can do it, and (2) if you can, it's massively influential. Detachment is being in control of emotions. When overwhelmed with priorities and pressures, you tend to get emotional. When you react emotionally, you make bad decisions. Learn the skill of detaching - not to be devoid of emotion (we're human), but don't let emotions dictate. Get Away from Problems to See What's Causing It - When a problem occurs at work, you tend to focus on it, go into it. It seems good but is often wrong. You should get away from it, detach. Getting away lets you look around and see what's really causing it. Military example: The enemy is shooting at you; the tendency is to focus on that. Usually bad because they're hoping you do - then they send a flanking maneuver. If you detach, step back, you'll see the flanking maneuver coming. Be able to see the future - that's the superpower.  Know Your Red Flags - Intervene Early - You have to understand where you are escalating your emotions. Know your personal red flags. Most people don't go zero to 100. Long day, flight delayed, bad meeting - little things tick up, so zero is actually 4 or 5, which means dirty dishes put you to 7. When Dave gets frustrated, traps tighten up. Some people's nose turns red. If you're at level 8 and someone says, "calm down," it makes it worse. But if at level 1 or 2 and you intervene, you're in control. What an adult does: "I'm an emotional guy, but I have awareness of where I am. If I'm a 4, I gotta intervene then." If at level 10, detaching is not gonna happen. That's the difference between kids and adults. Dave: "You are much more likely to have a hard time controlling your emotions, ironically, with people you care about the most." Quotes: "You're planning for the success of the outcome, not how you're going to go about doing that, because things get in the way."  "Humility is the most important attribute in a leader. All the attributes. Humility is number one, and we don't waffle on that."  "The biggest challenge with someone else's ego is not their ego. It's your ego's response to it."  "Detachment is a superpower."  "You are much more likely to have a hard time controlling your emotions, ironically, with people you care about the most." 01:16 Introducing Dave Burke 02:21 Dave Burke's Top Gun Experience 05:23 Lessons Learned from Military to Everyday Life 07:56 The Importance of Flexibility in Leadership 13:07 The Need to Lead: Dedication and Personal Stories 16:58 The Realities of Teamwork in Combat and Business 21:03 Building Trust and Relationships in Teams 26:04 The Role of Humility in Effective Leadership 31:03 Understanding Ego and Humility 31:50 Subordinating Your Ego 33:38 Challenges of Teaching Humility 34:07 Personal Experiences with Ego 39:20 The Power of Ownership 42:57 Detachment as a Superpower 52:58 Advice for Young Leaders 57:26 Conclusion and Key Takeaways

    Before the breakthrough comes the pause, the moment when you choose to look within and prepare your heart for what's next.   In this intimate conversation, Bayleigh Soza sits down with Dr. Michelle Robin to share her reflections before beginning The Hoffman Process- a transformative journey of healing and self-discovery. At just 26, Bayleigh opens up about the courage it takes to face generational patterns, practice self-awareness, and extend grace to herself and others.   Through the lens of motherhood, leadership, and inner growth, she reflects on what it means to live with intention and to prepare for change not by fixing yourself, but by meeting yourself with compassion. This episode reminds us that transformation doesn't start with the doing, it starts with the being.    Key Takeaways:   The “before” of healing is sacred—it's where awareness begins to take root.  Self-compassion opens the door to deeper connection with others.  Breaking patterns is an act of love—for yourself, your family, and future generations.  True leadership is born from grace, vulnerability, and authenticity.  Growth begins with small, intentional choices to pause, reflect, and begin again.  Join us for the Kindness Campaign and help create a ripple of compassion in your community!

Consider how your building design supports or limits your worship style goals Social Media Pull Quotes "Churches trying to maintain multiple worship styles are much more likely to be declining. It's not about one style being better—it's about strategic leadership." - Jake & Matt "96% of churches now stream online, and here's the kicker: online views are a lead indicator for growth. If your views are increasing, you're likely a growing church." - Jake & Matt "People will watch bad video with good audio, but they won't watch bad audio with good video. Audio first, always." - Matt Woltjer "Your online stream isn't competing with in-person attendance—it's your front door. 40% of online viewers are first-time visitors researching your church." - Jake Gosselin "The worship wars are over.

    You know that feeling when you look around at the news, your job, your relationships, and everything feels a little out of control? Like no matter what you do, it's never enough to really make a difference? I get it. So many of us are carrying that quiet sense of powerlessness right now. But here's the thing: you have more influence than you realize. You've just never been shown how to use it. In this episode, I'm talking with Cynthia Rivard, business strategist, and author of A New Breed of Leader, about what it truly means to become influential. Not in the “stand at the front of the room” kind of way, but in the real, human way that changes how you show up for yourself, your relationships, and your community. We're getting into influential leadership as a way of life - how to lead from within, ripple change outward, and shift from helplessness to hope through small, intentional action. This isn't about being in charge, but about being conscious, compassionate, and brave enough to start where you are. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Why We Feel Powerless & How to Become Influential 03:22 Redefining Leadership: Everyday Influence & Micro Leadership 05:05 Ripple Effects: How Small Actions Shape Others 11:28 Building Trust as the Core of Influential Leadership 13:11 Staying Grounded in Conflict & Division 23:52 Compassionate vs. Authoritative Leadership 25:00 Vision and Action: Breaking Free from Inaction 31:45 Overcoming Analysis Paralysis with Micro Actions 39:03 Enrolling Others in Your Vision 43:29 Key Takeaways on Influential Leadership   If you've been feeling ready to show up differently in your relationships, your work, or your life, I'd love to support you as you start putting that influence into action. You can schedule a free consultation with me or a member of my team. It's a private, supportive space where you can share what's been on your mind, whether that's building confidence, finding your voice, or learning how to lead your life with intention. We'll help you get matched with the right expert so you can move forward feeling clear, encouraged, and hopeful. I'd also love to stay connected beyond the podcast. You can find me on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube, where I share stories, reflections, and gentle reminders to help you stay intentional as you lead your own life. And if something from this conversation really hit home, tell me about it - I'd love to hear how you're using your influence out in the world.

    Celebrating two years and 104 episodes, Tammy J. Bond drops a truth bomb: If your communication sounds like chaos, it's because your nervous system is leading the meeting, not your core leadership. This episode breaks down the concept of the "Calm Cascade"—how your internal regulation sets the emotional thermostat for the entire team. Tammy argues that emotional regulation is not a soft skill, but a crucial leadership strategy. When you walk in "hot," your team burns out and tunes out; the best communicators are always the calmest in the room. Key Takeaways for Leaders: Regulation is Leadership: Emotional regulation is a strategy. If you can't regulate yourself and your emotions, you cannot motivate a team to speak up or succeed. The Thermostat Principle: Your energy sets the temperature. Your team needs you to set the thermostat to a regulated, comfortable temperature—not "frigid cold" or "burning hot." Dysregulation = Damage Control: When you are dysregulated, your rational brain (prefrontal cortex) takes a vacation. A dysregulated brain cannot do diplomacy; it can only do damage control. Actionable Correction: If you "freak out," quickly correct by saying: "I recognize what I did was wrong, here's how it might have impacted us, and here's what I'm doing differently next time." 4 Points on Leading with Calm: Chaos Short Circuits All Communication: When you are dysregulated, you invite the amygdala hijack—the fear center—leading to regretful blurting, defensiveness, and distractions from team members ("Johnny the Sandthrower"). Regulated Leaders Create Psychological Safety: Your people will mirror your tone faster than your words. When they feel calm around you, they are more truthful, collaborative, and focused on innovation, not self-protection. Trust is Earned by Being Calm: You don't earn trust by talking calm; you earn it by being composed in tense situations. When the leader stays composed, it shifts the energy of the entire room. Regulation is Your Lifeline: If you can't regulate, you can't communicate. If you can't communicate, you aren't leading. Regulation is your ultimate responsibility. Quick Takeaway & Challenge: The 90-Second Reset: Before any high-temperature meeting, take 90 seconds to reset your internal thermostat using box breathing (inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 4, hold 4). The “Grandma Vance” Principle: Be the first one to set your own thermostat every morning to the right temperature for your success. If you're ready to lead from calm, clarity, and courage, tune in every week. Share this episode with a leader who could benefit from hearing this message.

    In this episode, I'm joined by my good friend Coach Frank Rich for one of the most eye-opening and urgent conversations we've ever had on this show. We dig deep into the disturbing ways artificial intelligence is now intersecting with the porn industry—from deepfake technology to fully AI-generated adult content. It's not just impacting adults anymore—this tech is trickling into high schools, being used to bully, humiliate, and emotionally destroy kids. This is a conversation every father, husband, and leader needs to hear.   Frank and I explore how AI porn is evolving faster than laws can keep up, how it's rewiring minds, damaging marriages, and becoming a hidden epidemic in homes across the world. But it's not all doom and gloom—we also share stories of transformation, tools to protect your family, and how to have honest, shame-free conversations with your kids about sex, technology, and identity. If you care about protecting your family in the digital age, this one is a must-listen.       Episode Highlights & Timeline:   [0:00] – Introduction [2:18] – AI's alarming infiltration into the porn industry—from deepfakes to AI-generated performers [4:01] – My raw reaction: learning about deepfake porn for the first time [6:10] – Is AI porn found on mainstream sites like Pornhub? Frank breaks it down [8:45] – Why the porn industry has always driven tech innovation [9:36] – Men monetizing themselves with deepfakes—how that's happening [12:25] – High schoolers using AI to create and share fake nude images of classmates [14:00] – Why I use Bark to monitor my kids' devices—and how it's changed our conversations [17:00] – AI is evolving faster than the laws designed to regulate it [22:28] – How I talk to my sons about sex, porn, and masturbation—with honesty and no shame [30:20] – The sobering reality of porn-induced erectile dysfunction in young men [33:00] – Modeling healthy marriage and intimacy for your kids [41:24] – A redemption story: how David saved his marriage and reclaimed his life [49:14] – The hidden cost of porn: time, presence, and connection [51:18] – Watching a little boy get ignored by his phone-distracted dad—and the mirror it held up for me [53:47] – Final thoughts: let's stay alert, have the hard conversations, and lead with love       5 Key Takeaways:     1. AI-generated porn is dangerously realistic—and widely accessible. What once sounded like sci-fi is now mainstream and emotionally devastating. 2. Teens are weaponizing deepfake technology. Fake nudes created via AI are being used for bullying, revenge, and harassment in schools. 3. Don't wait to talk to your kids. The average age of first exposure to porn is 8–11. Have the talk early, openly, and without shame. 4. Porn addiction steals your presence—and your purpose. Whether it's five minutes or five hours, it erodes your integrity and disconnects you from what matters most. 5. Redemption is real. Frank's programs have helped countless men rebuild their lives, their faith, their marriages, and their connection to their kids.         Links & Resources:   David's story - https://youtu.be/dh-Enf6z-I8 FRANKS COMMUNITY- https://www.therebuiltman.com/7dayreset BARK - thedadedge.com/bark Full show notes: TheDadEdge.com/1388     If this episode opened your eyes or helped you in any way, please take a moment to rate, follow, review, and share the podcast.
