Benny's Liquor, Fireworks & Gunpowder Emporium went up in flames last night. Motion-detector alarms caught the fire and automatically notified the police, who found the fire and called the local fire chief, but by the time they arrived it was too late. Now his insurer claims he violated his Protective Safeguards Endorsement by installing burglary alarms instead of actual fire alarms. Benny doesn't recall anything about this, but apparently it's some paper he signed when he bought the policy. Key Takeaways [ 00:37 ] - Benny's shop burned down, and his insurer denied the claim due to a protective safeguards endorsement violation. [ 01:05 ] - Benny had a motion detector burglar alarm instead of the required fire alarm and does not recall agreeing to the protective safeguards endorsement. [ 06:09 ] - Protective safeguards endorsements require the insured to maintain the specific safeguards named in the policy schedule as a condition of insurance. [ 06:59 ] - If the insured knows of any suspension or impairment in the safeguards, they must notify the insurer or risk losing coverage. [ 08:29 ] - If a safeguard is shut off due to breakage or leakage, repairs must be completed within 48 hours for notification to the insurer not to be necessary. [ 10:47 ] - Courts often follow the strict policy language; simply having a different type of alarm, even if it detected the fire, is not considered compliant. [ 12:04 ] - The protective safeguards endorsement is often found in commercial property or farm coverage, and courts tend to enforce strict compliance. [ 15:15 ] - Coverage can be denied even if the breach of the safeguard duty did not affect the outcome of the loss because compliance is a condition of the insurance. [ 18:11 ] - Beth provides a summary of the key takeaways.

Are you worried about how easy it is for your tween, teen, or college-age child to get alcohol, weed, vapes, or “wellness” gummies—and not sure where to even start the conversation? In this episode of Power Your Parenting: Moms of Teens, Colleen talks with Pam Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer of Shatterproof, a national nonprofit dedicated to reversing the addiction crisis in the United States. Pam explains how today's substances (like Delta-8, synthetic THC products, and vaping) are more accessible and more potent, why mental health and substance use are so tightly linked, and why clear parental expectations are one of the strongest protective factors. You'll hear practical, hopeful ways to start ongoing conversations, monitor wisely (without turning into the “drug police”), and support your child's mental health so they're less vulnerable to addiction. About Pam Jenkins Pam Jenkins is the Chief Executive Officer of Shatterproof, the leading national nonprofit focused on preventing and treating addiction and supporting long-term recovery. With a lifelong career in public health and health communication, Pam has led large-scale initiatives in areas such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and substance use. She has worked on government campaigns about marijuana, youth alcohol use, and created widely recognized public-health symbols like the red dress for women's heart disease. Today, Pam leads Shatterproof's policy advocacy, prevention programs, and family resources, all aimed at transforming how America understands and addresses addiction. 3 Key Takeaways for Moms Access and potency have changed—your expectations still matter. Teens can easily access highly potent substances (like Delta-8 and other synthetic THC products, vapes, and stronger marijuana) in gas stations, convenience stores, and online. Even so, clear parental disapproval is one of the strongest protections against teen use. Don't assume your kids “just know” how you feel—say it plainly and repeat it often. Mental health and substance use are inseparable. Anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and social isolation all increase a teen's vulnerability to drugs and alcohol—and drug use can, in turn, worsen or even trigger serious mental health issues like crippling anxiety, depression, and psychosis. Monitoring your child's mood, behavior, friendships, grades, and social connectedness is as important as watching for the substances themselves. Monitor early, talk often, and stay curious—not panicked. Effective prevention starts young: secure medications at home, know your child's friends, stay engaged with school, and watch for changes in behavior or peer groups. Have many short, specific conversations—especially before parties or transitions—using curiosity (“What usually happens at those parties?”) rather than accusations. You don't have to be an expert; you just need to be present, clear about your values, and willing to keep the dialogue going well into their college years.

Two-time Emmy and three-time NAACP Image Award-winning television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Trey Haley.
You can have the right strategy, the right offer, and the right mindset, but if your subconscious beliefs aren't on board, your results will always fall short of your potential. Here's the truth: success isn't just about hard work or the right offer. It's about aligning your subconscious programming with what you actually want to create, because if your beliefs don't match your vision, you'll keep running into the same wall. In episode 466 of Amplify Your Success Podcast, I'm joined by my friend and manifestation expert, Natalie Ledwell, co-founder of Mind Movies. Natalie shares her Manifestation Mastery Formula, a powerful three-step process that helps you (and your clients) rewire limiting beliefs, activate aligned energy, and take action that leads to real results. We talk about how to move from "trying to make it happen" energy into flow, why your subconscious is the true driver of your success, and how to apply manifestation in a way that's practical and grounded (not just woo). If you are a coach or guide in your work, you'll love this breakthrough formula that also works to get your clients unstuck and into action. If you've been chasing the same goals without seeing results, sensing there's another level waiting for you, or notice that your own clients aren't implementing, this conversation will help you unlock what's really holding you back and open the door to more abundance, clarity, and ease in your business. Key Takeaways: [04:12] Why traditional goal-setting doesn't work if your subconscious mind isn't aligned. [08:33] The three-step Manifestation Mastery Formula Natalie teaches—and how to apply it to your coaching or your own business. [14:10] How to identify and reprogram the real limiting beliefs that block success. [20:05] Why emotional frequency and visualization must work together for real results. [28:40] How to move from "thinking about success" to becoming the person who naturally attracts it. About The Guest: Natalie Ledwell is a bestselling author, speaker, and co-founder of Mind Movies—a transformational personal development company that has reached over 20 million people worldwide. She's also the visionary behind the Mind Movies Method Coaching Academy, where she trains everyday people to become certified coaches using her unique blend of neuroscience, visualization, and subconscious rewiring.

Achieve Wealth Through Value Add Real Estate Investing Podcast
The Ultimate Tax Shield: Mastering the 1031 Exchange for Exponential Wealth Growth Are you ready to use the most powerful tax loophole available to serious real estate investors? The 1031 Exchange (also known as a "like-kind exchange" or "Starker exchange") is a game-changing strategy found in Section 1031 of the IRS tax code that allows investors to defer capital gains taxes indefinitely. This episode dives deep into the mechanism that helps investors keep the government's money working for them, accelerate compounding, and build millions in net worth. Key Takeaways from This Episode: The Power of Tax Deferral and Compounding Discover how the 1031 exchange allows you to defer paying taxes on profits and the recapture of depreciation when selling an investment property. Learn why taxes deferred until tomorrow are superior to taxes paid today, allowing you to reinvest the full gain into your next deal. By continually using the 1031 exchange, investors can put the entire profit—including the money that would have been taxed—to work, which leads to greater wealth accumulation over time. See how investors who consistently use the 1031 exchange can accumulate millions more in wealth over a 25-year period compared to those who pay taxes after every sale. Understand the "end game": taxes can be avoided altogether by holding assets until death, passing them to heirs via the "stepped-up basis," which virtually eliminates the inherited tax consequences. Strict Rules You MUST Follow To successfully execute this powerful strategy, you must adhere to the six essential rules laid out by the IRS: Like-Kind Requirement: The property sold and the replacement property must be held for investment or trade (not personal residences or properties for quick resale/flipping). You can exchange nearly any investment real estate for another, such as swapping a duplex for an apartment complex, or raw land for a rental house. Required Value: The replacement property (or properties combined) must be of equal or greater value than the relinquished property's entire sale price. If you acquire a property of lesser value, the difference, known as "boot," is subject to normal capital gains taxes. 45-Day Identification Window: You have only 45 days from the date the relinquished property closes to officially identify potential replacement deals in writing. The IRS generally allows identification of up to three potential replacement properties. 180-Day Reinvestment Period: The acquisition of the replacement property must be fully completed and the title transferred within 180 days of the sale of the original property. Qualified Intermediary (QI): You may not touch the profit from the sale. A neutral third party, known as a Qualified Intermediary or accommodator, must hold and transfer the funds to maintain the tax-deferred status. Title Requirements: The title holder (taxpayer or entity) of the relinquished property must be the same as the buyer of the replacement property. Advanced Strategies and Flexibility Learn how the 1031 exchange enables investors to shift their focus—for example, moving from high-maintenance properties to low-maintenance commercial investments like triple-net (NNN) lease properties. Discover how investors can consistently "trade up" to larger, more passive assets, such as moving equity into a multimillion-dollar shopping mall syndication. Understand that while interests in standard LLC syndications typically do not qualify for a 1031 exchange, specialized structures like Tenancy in Common (TIC) or Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs) can qualify as "like-kind" property for investors seeking a passive route. ⚠️ Critical Advice: The 1031 exchange is complex, and any minor error in paperwork could result in disqualification and immediate tax liability. You should always consult with a qualified tax professional before undertaking this strategy to ensure compliance and proper execution.

His perspective blends entrepreneurship, sustainability, and practical action in a way that challenges traditional thinking.Jim also dives into the rapid global expansion of Food Forest Abundance, now active in more than 50 countries, and outlines how simple, scalable systems are helping households reduce dependency and create real security. From community-supported agriculture to working with local leaders, churches, and schools, he breaks down how abundance can be built anywhere with the right mindset and the right structures. This episode offers a grounded, forward-looking conversation on resilience, leadership, and the future of sustainable living.Key Takeaways: 1. Jim chose purpose over comfort, redirecting his life into a mission that supports long-term human resilience.2. Even barren land can become a thriving ecosystem with the right regenerative design principles.3. Rising costs and system strain are pushing more people to explore self-sufficiency and local abundance.4. Simple food systems can dramatically reduce household pressure and create real security.5. Schools, churches, and community groups are powerful entry points for widespread change.6. Food Forest Abundance is now active in more than 50 countries, proving the model works at scale.7. Creating even a small amount of your own food increases stability and reduces dependency.8. Community-supported agriculture models offer education, daily nutrition, and long-term resilience.9. Awareness and visibility are essential, as many people have never considered growing their own food.10. Abundance works best when shared; real resilience comes from communities growing and supporting each other.If you listen to The Business Development Podcast, you belong in The Catalyst Club.

Why Trust Breaks Down and What To Do About It In this episode, Marcus talks with Charles Green, one of the genuine heavyweights in the world of trust and commercial relationships. If you lead a mid market scaling tech firm and you suspect your sales or GTM function is underperforming for reasons no dashboard can explain, this conversation will feel uncomfortably accurate. Together they explore how fear, uncertainty, and internal pressure quietly poison performance. Forget the usual talk about activity ratios and pipeline hygiene. This is a candid look at the human drivers behind buyer reluctance, stalling, and ghosting, and why most attempts to “solve” these problems only make them worse. Charlie argues that instead of trying to measure trust, leaders should focus on spotting and removing the behaviours that actively destroy it. If you are grappling with the tension between short term targets and long term customer value, this episode will challenge how you think about leadership, incentives, and your culture. Key Takeaways for Scaling Founders, GTM Leaders and Sales People Trust is lived, not conceptual. It is emotional as much as rational. Charlie draws a clear distinction between thin, institutional trust and thick, personal trust. Trust is often built in moments. Reliability takes repetition, but intimacy is created quickly. How you pause, how you listen, and how you look at someone all matter more than your slide deck. Over promising is lying twice. One promise on the way in, one on the way out. It corrodes trust faster than anything. Fear drives most distrust. Buyers who feel uncertain catastrophise. That is what creates anticipatory buyer remorse and pipeline ghosting. The antidote is to name the fear out loud. Once spoken, it loses power. Repair beats perfection. A relationship that has been broken and then repaired well is often stronger than one that never faced a test. Repair requires vulnerability and accountability, not ego. The Trust Equation and Why Most Firms Focus on the Wrong Bits The Trust Equation helped popularise the components of trustworthiness. Most leaders obsess over credibility and reliability because they are convenient to measure. Charlie explains why they are nowhere near the strongest drivers. Intimacy. By far the biggest factor. It is about making the other person feel safe, understood, and genuinely heard. Nurses top trust rankings for a reason. Low Self Orientation. The second strongest factor. Hard to measure and impossible to bribe into existence. Fear drives self orientation. Freedom from fear frees you to focus on others. Scaling, Money, and the Uncomfortable Truth About Culture Charlie and Marcus tackle why trust based, customer centric selling so often collapses once a company grows beyond 100 or 200 people. Money permeates culture. Investors and boards often prioritise valuation over outcomes. This shifts intent and corrodes trust without anyone noticing. Ideology shapes behaviour. Modern management is built on economic beliefs that favour short term gains and things that are easy to measure. Mixed messages destroy conviction. Telling teams to “do the right thing” while driving absurd stretch targets creates confusion and cynicism. The Bill Green example. When the former Accenture CEO was challenged about incentives conflicting with doing the right thing, he told the room to do the right thing first, then fix the incentives later. That clarity changed the behaviour of forty senior leaders immediately. Practical Trust Based GTM Moves These are the actions Charles Green recommends leaders adopt straight away. Be transparent on price early. Withholding price to “build value” creates anxiety. Give a ballpark early to remove fear. Stop using discounts as currency. It destroys trust. Offer only standard, published discounts such as volume or non profit rates. Protect existing customers first. Expansion and net new wins come after that. Repeat business is far more profitable and far less stressful. Measure Time to Value, not NPS. Buyers rent an outcome. How quickly they reach it tells you more about your trustworthiness than a score. Build your trust muscle. Make many small promises and keep every one of them. It is astonishing how fast this compounds. Model the behaviour you want. Trust others first and show your workings. A simple line such as “I could be wrong, but it seems this is an issue. Is it?” creates space for honesty. Final Thoughts and What Happens Next Trust is built in tiny moments. Charlie encourages listeners to choose two or three insights, write them down, and let them settle into daily practice. Marcus points out that a 0.1 percent daily improvement compounds to roughly 30 percent over a year. The benefits start immediately. Listeners are invitated to join Sellers Anonymous, a community helping salespeople strengthen their trust muscle Subscribe to hear the next episode: Marcus and Charles will dissect how the Trust Equation applies to negotiation, objections, and winning second and third waves of business.

In this episode, Colleen walks us through a coaching moment that captures what emotional sobriety really means: shifting from self-criticism and control into vision and alignment. When one client arrived overwhelmed and focused on what her partner wasn't doing, the breakthrough came when she identified who she wanted to be — positive and powerful. From there, everything changed. Colleen unpacks how to train the brain to serve your vision instead of your fear, why alignment between mind and body is the true foundation of change, and how to stop letting your thoughts drain your energy. You'll learn what it means to "stop, drop, and feel," and how this simple practice brings you back to your power when you're spiraling in stress or self-doubt.

"Lindsey, I hate my stomach. I can't stop thinking about it. It's ruining my day, my mood, my recovery. What do I do?" If your stomach is your biggest trigger in recovery - if you can't stop looking at it, obsessing over whether it looks bigger, spiraling every time you see your reflection - this episode is for you, girlfriend. Host Lindsey Nichol gets real about stomach hate in recovery and shares something her client needed to hear today: "I may not love my stomach every day, but if I'm being honest? I didn't love my stomach every day when I was in the trenches of my eating disorder either." So here's the question: Which hard do you want? Hard #1: Hating your stomach while you're restricting, obsessing, body checking, over-exercising, and missing your life. Hard #2: Sometimes not loving your stomach, but being FREE. Living your life. Eating with family. Being present. Having energy. Both are hard. But only one leads to freedom. In this episode, Lindsey shares her own stomach struggles - how she used to search for evidence it was "blowing up," how it would send her into spirals of restriction and over-exercise, and what she does NOW on the days when she doesn't love her stomach. Plus, she gives you 7 practical tools you can use on your hardest days. This is real talk with practical help. No toxic positivity. No "just love yourself." Just honest truth and actionable tools for when your stomach triggers you. In This Episode, You'll Hear: Lindsey's Stomach Story: The Disorder Days How she was super conscious of her stomach feeling or looking bigger Searching for evidence it was "blowing up" - every mirror, reflection, window The spirals: restriction, over-exercise, mood switches Feeling out of control and reacting - being short or avoidant with loved ones How stomach hate controlled her entire day, every day The Truth Bomb: Choose Your Hard Hard #1: Hating your stomach while trapped in the eating disorder Hard #2: Sometimes not loving your stomach but being FREE The reality: Even at her lowest weight, Lindsey STILL didn't love her stomach The question: What other options do you have? Why you have to choose which hard you want to live with Why the Stomach Specifically? Why the stomach is such an easy target for self-criticism How society and social media have trained us to hate our stomachs Why the stomach becomes the "safe" target instead of dealing with real feelings The truth: Restriction makes stomach issues WORSE (digestion, bloating) Reality check: Stomachs are SUPPOSED to change throughout the day Aren't stomachs supposed to be FULL? That's their job What Lindsey Does NOW on Hard Days Wears baggy clothes, not restrictive clothing Avoids opportunities to stare in the mirror and body check Reminds herself of the truth: stomachs are allowed to change Thinks about her little girl self who never cared about her stomach Remembers being pregnant and LOVING watching her stomach grow Accepts that not loving her stomach doesn't mean she's failed The Shift That Changed Everything The realization: She was NEVER going to like her stomach at any size or weight Her stomach wasn't the problem - it was a tool for self-sabotage Used stomach hate when feeling out of control or "not enough" The only way through was acceptance and perspective shift Understanding that stomach hate is usually about something else entirely 7 Tools for Your Hardest Days Stop the Body Checking - Walk away from mirrors, put on baggy clothes Ask the Real Question - What am I really feeling? What am I avoiding? Function Over Form - Your stomach digests food, that's its job Remember Your Little Girl Self - You didn't care about your stomach as a kid Choose Your Hard - Trapped and hating it OR free and sometimes not loving it Wear Comfortable Clothes - Stop punishing yourself with restrictive clothing Talk Back to the Voice - "My stomach is allowed to change and that's okay" Key Takeaways: ✨ You didn't love your stomach in the disorder either - so what are you really choosing? ✨ There are two hards: choose yours - trapped with stomach hate OR free with occasional stomach discomfort ✨ Your stomach is not the problem - it's a symptom, a distraction from real feelings ✨ Restriction makes stomach issues WORSE - bloating, digestion problems increase with restriction ✨ Stomachs are supposed to change - throughout the day, after meals, when sitting vs standing ✨ The stomach is an easy target - easier to hate your stomach than deal with underlying fears ✨ You'll never be satisfied at any size - if stomach hate is really about control and self-sabotage ✨ Body checking makes it worse - the more you look, the more you spiral ✨ Function over form - your stomach's job is to digest food, not be flat 24/7 ✨ Little girl you didn't care - the goal isn't loving your stomach, it's living without it controlling you ✨ You don't have to love it to live - freedom doesn't require stomach love, just stomach acceptance Powerful Quotes from This Episode: "I may not love my stomach every day, but if I'm being honest? I didn't love my stomach every day when I was in the trenches of my eating disorder either" "Your stomach is a huge pain point in recovery. I get it. I've been there. It's real, it's valid, and it's one of the hardest parts" "I would search - like literally SEARCH - for evidence that it was blowing up" "My mood would switch on a dime. I'd feel totally out of control" "Your stomach doesn't have to control you. It doesn't have to dictate your mood, your choices, or your day" "Both are hard. But which hard do you want?" "Even at my lowest weight, I STILL didn't love my stomach. Even then. Even at my sickest" "So what other options do you have? Stay in the disorder and hate your stomach, or recover and sometimes not love it but have your LIFE back" "The stomach is easy for us to tear ourselves apart over" "Restriction makes stomach issues WORSE. When you're not eating enough, your digestion slows down. You get more bloated" "Aren't stomachs supposed to be full? That's their job. To hold food. To digest. To nourish you" "I was never going to like my stomach. No matter my size. No matter my weight" "Hating my stomach wasn't actually about my stomach. It was just a part of me that I used to self-sabotage when I felt out of control or not enough" "When you hate your stomach, ask yourself: What am I really afraid of right now?" "99% of the time, it's not actually your stomach" "You don't have to love your stomach to live your life. You don't have to love your stomach to recover" "Your stomach is not the enemy. Your stomach is just a stomach. It's allowed to exist. It's allowed to change. It's allowed to be full" "Choose your hard, girlfriend. Choose freedom" The 7 Tools Explained: Tool #1: Stop the Body Checking When you feel the urge to look in the mirror, pull your shirt tight, or analyze your stomach - STOP. Literally stop. Walk away. Do something else. Put on baggy clothes. The more you body check, the worse the obsession gets. Tool #2: Ask the Real Question Stop asking "Why does my stomach look like this?" and start asking "What am I really feeling right now? What am I avoiding?" Get to the root. Your stomach is almost never the actual problem. Common real feelings underneath stomach hate: Feeling out of control in some area of life Fear about something coming up Feeling "not enough" in comparison to others Anxiety about a situation Avoiding deeper emotional work Tool #3: Function Over Form Remind yourself: Your stomach digests food. It nourishes you. It expands when you eat because that's its JOB. It's not supposed to be flat 24/7. That's not realistic, healthy, or even possible. Tool #4: Remember Your Little Girl Self You didn't care about your stomach as a kid. You just lived. You played. You ate. You didn't analyze your body. THAT is the goal - not loving your stomach every day, just LIVING without it controlling you. Also remember: When you were pregnant (if applicable), you LOVED watching your stomach grow. You celebrated what your body could do. Why do you hate it now? Tool #5: Choose Your Hard On the hard days, say this out loud: "I can hate my stomach and be trapped in restriction, obsession, and isolation - OR I can sometimes not love my stomach but be FREE to live my life. Which hard do I want?" Tool #6: Wear Comfortable Clothes Stop punishing yourself with restrictive clothing. Stop wearing things that make you hyper-aware of your stomach all day. Wear what feels good. Your comfort matters more than how your stomach looks. Baggy clothes aren't "giving up" - they're choosing peace. Tool #7: Talk Back to the Voice When that critical voice says "Your stomach is too big," you talk back with truth: "My stomach is allowed to change" "My stomach is doing its job" "My stomach does not define my worth" "I didn't love my stomach at my lowest weight either, so this isn't about size" "Stomachs are supposed to be full" Questions to Reflect On: About Your Stomach Hate: When did you first start hating your stomach? What do you do when you hate your stomach? (body check, restrict, over-exercise, avoid people?) Does hating your stomach actually solve anything? Did you love your stomach at your lowest weight? (Be honest) About the Real Feelings: What are you REALLY feeling when you hate your stomach? What are you avoiding by focusing on your stomach? When does stomach hate show up most? (after meals, stressful situations, comparison moments?) What would happen if you couldn't focus on your stomach anymore - what would you have to deal with? About Your Choices: Which hard do you want: trapped and hating it OR free and sometimes not loving it? What is stomach hate costing you? (relationships, experiences, peace, presence?) What would change if your stomach wasn't your focus anymore? Are you ready to stop letting your stomach control your life? About Your Little Girl Self: When was the last time you thought about your body the way you did as a little girl? What would little-girl-you think about how much time you spend hating your stomach? What did you do with your time before stomach hate consumed you? Who This Episode Is For: This episode is essential listening if you: Hate your stomach and it's ruining your recovery Can't stop body checking your stomach throughout the day Search for "evidence" your stomach is getting bigger Spiral into restriction or over-exercise when you hate your stomach Let your stomach dictate your mood, choices, and entire day Feel triggered by your stomach after every meal Compare your stomach to everyone else's Thought you'd love your stomach in recovery but you don't Feel like your stomach is the one body part you can't accept Need real talk and practical tools, not toxic positivity Are stuck between hating your stomach in the disorder vs. sometimes not loving it in freedom Need permission to not love your stomach but live your life anyway Important Truths About Stomachs in Recovery: Stomachs Change Throughout the Day: Flatter in the morning Fuller after meals Different when sitting vs. standing Bloated sometimes (especially in recovery) This is NORMAL and HEALTHY Restriction Makes It Worse: Slows digestion Increases bloating Creates more discomfort Makes you MORE obsessed with your stomach Stomach Hate Is Usually About Something Else: Control issues Fear and anxiety Feeling "not enough" Comparison to others Avoiding deeper feelings You Didn't Love It at Your Lowest Weight Either: If you still hated your stomach at your sickest, size isn't the issue Stomach hate is a symptom, not the problem No amount of restriction will make you love it Function Over Form: Your stomach's job is to digest food It's supposed to expand after eating It's supposed to be FULL Flat stomachs 24/7 are not realistic or healthy What Lindsey Does Now (Practical Examples): Morning Routine: Puts on comfortable, baggy clothes first thing Avoids standing in front of mirror analyzing Brushes teeth, does hair, moves on Doesn't give herself opportunity to spiral After Meals: Expects stomach to be fuller - that's its job Reminds herself: "Stomachs are supposed to be full" Doesn't body check or analyze Focuses on how she FEELS, not how she LOOKS On Triggering Days: Acknowledges: "I don't love my stomach today and that's okay" Asks: "What am I really feeling?

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross breaks down why B2B marketers need to rethink their bottom-of-funnel strategies. Traditional review sites like G2, Capterra, and TrustRadius are losing ground in high-intent search queries—and Reddit is stepping up to take their place. Ross explores how Reddit outperforms review platforms in organic reach, how it's shaping AI results, and exactly how brands can build a strategic, valuable presence on the platform. If you're still spending five figures a quarter on legacy review listings, this episode is your wake-up call to adapt or fall behind. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. The Changing Buyer Landscape - The death of traditional review sites: G2, Capterra, and others are losing organic influence. - Buyer behavior has evolved: Reddit is becoming the go-to source for real, unfiltered reviews. 2. Reddit Is Now Dominating High-Intent Search - Keywords like “best X software” are now leading to Reddit threads. - Reddit is outperforming review sites on SERPs and AI-generated insights. 3. How AI Tools Are Using Reddit for Context - LLMs like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity reference Reddit threads for information. - Partnerships with Reddit make it a key AI content source. 4. Why Reddit Comments Are More Trustworthy - Real debates and discussions offer depth that polished reviews lack. - Even negative experiences can influence AI answers and user perception. 5. The New B2B Buyer Journey - Traditional buyer path (→ G2 → demo) is being replaced by Reddit-informed decisions.Example: Users choose tools based on multi-comment threads and user anecdotes. 6.

As the world speeds up and expectations pile on, this episode is your permission slip to slow down and remember: you get to choose how this season feels. This week on The Robyn Ivy Podcast, we're getting intentional about the holidays. Not the commercial version. Not the one you inherited, perform, or survive. But the one you actually want to live. In this solo episode, I share stories, reflections, and practical tools to help you take stock of how you've done holidays in the past—and how you want to experience them now. Whether you're craving more peace, looking to create new traditions, or simply feeling stretched by grief, transitions, or family dynamics, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and a path forward. 3 Key Takeaways from the Episode: You can choose how this season feels Pause and notice which version of you tends to show up during the holidays—then decide if she's still the one you want leading. Autopilot is not required.Boundaries protect what matters most Saying no, shifting traditions, or making space for your needs isn't selfish—it's how you create space for peace and presence. Let your inner wisdom lead.Joy is found in presence, not performance Small, sacred acts—service, creativity, stillness—often bring more meaning than any gift. Reimagine what generosity looks like, starting with how you care for yourself. If this season is asking you to do things differently, I want you to know: you're allowed. And you're not alone.

MAXOUT Your Mind Masterclass: Protect Your Peace Have you ever noticed how quickly your peace can disappear the moment someone cuts you off in traffic or a negative comment shows up online? In this episode of the MAXOUT Your Mind Masterclass, I'm taking you deep into one of the most important lessons I've ever learned: how to protect your peace and preserve your bliss no matter what's happening around you. Because the truth is, the quality of your life is the quality of your emotions. If you're constantly surrendering your peace to external circumstances or difficult people, you're never really in control of your life. I share personal stories that made me stop and ask myself, Who's really winning the game of life? The one with the mansion or the one with peace? I talk about the time I stayed calm in traffic when someone tried to provoke me, and another moment that challenged me to respond with grace instead of judgment. These experiences taught me that emotional mastery isn't about avoiding chaos, it's about remaining steady in it. Real strength is when your external world doesn't get to dictate your internal state. In this Masterclass, I walk you through how to identify the people, thoughts, and habits that are stealing your bliss and how to reclaim it. I'll show you the exact exercise I used to create two lists: one for what feeds my peace and another for what drains it. From there, I share the surprising things that elevate my state of bliss like being outdoors, moving my body, listening to worship music, and cutting 85% of the noise from my social media and news intake. These small shifts can change everything about how you experience your life. The goal isn't to live in a bubble where nothing challenges you. Life will always bring problems, stress, and uncertainty. But when you learn to stay grounded in grace and gratitude through it all, you step into a level of peace that can't be shaken. You become the thermostat, not the thermometer. And that's when you start to truly MAXOUT your mind, your relationships, and your joy. Key Takeaways: How to protect your peace and preserve your bliss in a chaotic world Why emotional mastery is the foundation of success and fulfillment How to identify what (and who) steals your peace and reduce their power by 85% The surprising habits that feed your inner joy and raise your emotional thermostat Why serving others and extending grace is the fastest path to restoring peace Your peace is sacred.
