I don't say this lightly.   In more than 12 years working in franchising, I've seen hundreds of brands launch—most of them look the same, follow the same playbook, and make the same promises.   This one doesn't.   In this solo episode of Franchise Unfiltered, I'm giving you early, insider access to a brand that hasn't even officially launched yet—and it's unlike anything I've seen in the health and wellness space.   This concept brings performance, longevity, recovery, diagnostics, and personalized optimization under one roof… backed by one of the most experienced franchise leadership teams in the industry and partnered with some of the most recognizable names in health and human performance.   We'll break down:   Why health & wellness franchising is entering a new era   What makes this model fundamentally different from anything else on the market   Who this opportunity is actually for (and who it's not)   Why timing and early access matter with emerging franchise brands   If you've been waiting for something bigger than “just another franchise,” this is one you need to hear about.

Energy feeling off? Find clarity with a free 20-min Biz Breakthru Call.  Selling online used to feel heavy for me. Awkward. Draining. Like I had to become someone I wasn't just to make money. In this episode of Money Magnet Mama, I'm sharing exactly how I launched a profitable group coaching program and brought in $60,000 in 30 days—without ads, without posting every day, and without nervous-system overload. If traditional launches have ever made you feel stressed, pressured, or burned out, this episode is your permission slip to do things differently. Inside this episode, I'm breaking down: How I reframed selling from something I dreaded into an act of deep service Why bro-marketing, fake urgency, and pressure tactics never worked for me How I sell and launch in a way that feels calm, ethical, and sustainable What actually moved the needle in my business (without growing my audience) How I built a sales process that supports my life instead of consuming it I also introduce my Launch & Chill™ philosophy—a soul-aligned, nervous-system-friendly way to sell that works beautifully for heart-centered entrepreneurs. ✨ If you've been creating content but not seeing consistent sales, this episode will completely shift how you think about selling. xo, Masha

Most coaches think they have a marketing problem. Truth is… They have a trust problem. In this episode, I walk you through the exact marketing system we're using to sell over $52M/year in coaching programs. Not theory. Not "one funnel away" BS. The actual system we use to sign 5 to 20+ new clients a month (yes, on repeat) without giving into 'trend tracking' or burning your ad budget on webinar funnels that just don't work anymore. Here's what you'll discover: • Why views, content, and followers aren't converting (and the one metric you must fix) • The 6 RMAs Playbooks that generate leads, book calls, and close clients while you sleep • The $100K/week partner case study (and how fast it happened) • Why most coaches stall at $30K/month—and how to break through to $100K+ • The 7-11-4 Trust Framework that makes strangers buy from you • How to go from "struggling founder" to "peaceful operator" in 90 days • The only 3 phases that matter: Incubate, Step Up, Scale Up • How to build a sales machine that prints clients (even if you hate tech) • What's actually working and what to stop doing ASAP • Why most masterminds, agencies, and ad coaches are keeping you stuck • How to build a $1M/year profit machine without becoming the bottleneck If you're ready to simplify, scale, and finally enjoy your business again…

Listen to 148 Future Now Show - X-Class Pandora A lively show today, we take a look at what’s going on in our corner of the universe.  Looks like we just weathered what is  known as an X-Class solar flare, lighting up the Northern skies with the aurora borealis, and and giving global communications a bit of a glitchy headache. Thanks to the Golden Dome initiative Rocket Lab is hitting it big time on Wall Street, and the new space telescope, Pandora, looks at the solar flares of other star systems in the search of E.T. life. And the ultimate rocket showdown: Who’s packing the bigger boom? Elon’s SpaceX Starship or NASA’s mighty SLS? We’re diving into the specs, the swagger, and who might actually win the space race crown. Popcorn ready?  Over in Metaverse land, Meta just showed the door to about 1,500 folks tied to their VR dreams as they’re desperately trying to plug the multi-billion-dollar money bleed. And Siri? Oh boy—Apple’s ditching the OpenAI hookup and switching allegiances to Google’s Gemini for that next-level upgrade. Why the swap? We break it down, including Bobby’s hot take: local AI running right on your device is about to take over the world. That’s why Apple’s reportedly renting Google’s monster server farms instead of building their own—smart move or sneaky strategy? In the programming world, Claude.ai is killing it, allowing complex programming to be done in English!No more staring at cryptic errors for hours; just talk to it like a super-genius buddy.Health corner: We’re spilling the tea on sugar substitutes that won’t wreck your vibe.

Most people think views equal success. They don't. In this conversation, Sam Gaudet and Chris Dufey break down what actually matters if you want content to turn into revenue, not just attention. If your content is not creating clients, it is not building a business. It is just entertainment. This episode goes deep into the real metrics serious operators track, including: • Followers gained per video • View velocity in the first 24 to 36 hours • View to follower ratio • Followers to revenue You will learn why a video with 250,000 views and 10,000 new followers is far more valuable than a video with 1 million views and 100 followers, and how viral content can quietly damage your brand by attracting the wrong audience. They also explain why they do not run ads or chase virality for personal brands, how trust is built at scale, and how to think about content like an actual growth engine instead of a guessing game. If you are posting every day but not seeing real business results, this episode will completely change how you think about content, growth, and what actually matters. This is how professionals use content to build real businesses. —— In this video: 00:00 — Why most people misunderstand content and growth 01:05 — Content vs business, what is the difference 02:10 — Awareness without revenue is not a business 03:20 — The real goal of social media 04:15 — Why followers to revenue is the only metric that matters 05:40 — Followers gained per video explained 07:10 — View velocity and why it predicts winners in 24 hours 09:05 — The metric nobody tracks, view to follower ratio 11:10 — Why viral videos can destroy your brand 13:00 — 250k views vs 10k followers, what actually wins 15:10 — Why Sam and Chris do not run ads on personal brands 17:00 — How facial impressions affect trust and conversion 18:40 — Editing, thumbnails, and reacting to momentum in real time 20:00 — Followers vs clients, lagging vs leading metrics 22:10 — How content turns into a sales pipeline 24:00 — What high quality audience really means 26:30 — Protecting your brand while you scale 28:30 — Final thoughts on content that actually makes money —— If this is our first time meeting, hey

The council was convened by MSU President Kevin Guskiewicz and tasked with bringing forward ideas to strengthen the state's workforce, connect students to high quality careers and accelerate innovation across Michigan's industries.

And we're going to lead in how we redefine the way in which we can better prepare our graduates for the workforce demands of today and tomorrow, jobs and careers that don't even exist today, that our graduates will be needing to be prepared for over the next three, four decades. So we charged them with gaining a better understanding from industry leaders in about five or six different sectors as to where higher ed is not delivering, it's going to be needed for the future, and I couldn't be happier with where we are. That's sort of one of the initiatives and others really around how we can better connect our graduates t...

In our latest episode, co-hosts Robby and Tim talk with Robert Brennan, Co-Founder & CEO of OpenHands - the open platform for cloud coding agents. Their open source project, also called OpenHands, has 67K starts on GitHub and provides a software agent SDK, CLI, and local GUI. They also have OpenHands cloud - their paid, hosted version of the OpenHands GUI. This episode traces the rise of OpenDevin - now OpenHands - as an open-source alternative to closed AI coding agents like Devin. Open to anyone from day one, it attracted highly technical developers, academics, and eventually large enterprises that valued flexibility, privacy, and lack of model lock-in. Launched amid the 2024 surge of excitement around autonomous coding agents, OpenHands quickly built a massive community and differentiated itself by rejecting the idea of replacing engineers, instead focusing on empowering them through transparent, human-in-the-loop tooling.The discussion also covers the fragmented AI dev-tool landscape and why open source may define future standards. While many tools compete in the individual “inner loop” of coding, OpenHands emphasizes the collaborative “outer loop,” safety, and running agents at scale. Its organic growth, community-driven roadmap, and focus on real developer pain points highlight a future where AI accelerates software creation without removing human accountability.

Work with me: https://jointherainmakers.com/choosetime?utm_src=organicyoutube Get your free demo: https://jointherainmakers.com/demo?utm_src=organicyoutube ------- At 3:02AM, I woke up with a question that refused to let go: "What do I actually want from my life?" Not the "Instagram answer." Not the "entrepreneur answer." Not the "be a good husband, father, provider" answer. The real one. At 37, I found myself replaying every decision, every success, every sacrifice… wondering how I got here and whether the direction I was sprinting toward was even the right one anymore. Doubt can chain you down. But if you're honest enough to face it… it can also become a compass. So I went downstairs. Opened my journal. And poured everything out. What came out turned into the deepest personal reset I've ever had. 16 powerful "dials" I now use to recalibrate my life, my business, my relationships, my purpose. In this video, I'm sharing them. Not polished. Not performative. Not "guru wisdom." Just the raw, unfiltered reflections of an entrepreneur, husband, father, and human trying to build a life that actually feels meaningful… not just impressive. You'll hear me talk about: Why "success" nearly cost me my peace and my family presence The brutal truth about imbalance, burnout, and ambition How I define purpose now (and how totally different it is) Legacy, love, leadership, and why impact matters more than metrics Why harmony matters more than "work-life balance" Gratitude, impermanence, joy, and being truly alive And why the world doesn't need more "successful" people… It needs more grounded, fulfilled, fully-present ones. If you've ever woken up in the middle of the night questioning your direction… If you're "doing great" externally but wrestling internally… If you want a life that feels aligned, not just impressive… This one's for you. __ In this video: 00:00 — The 3:02AM Question That Changed Everything 01:06 — Turning Chaos Into Clarity (16 Life "Dials") 01:12 — The One Question That Unraveled a Thousand Others 01:45 — My Notes, My North Star: The "Dials" That Guide My Life 02:06 — When Success Crashes Into Reality 03:07 — Finally Asking: "What Do I Truly Want?" 03:35 — Why Fulfillment Doesn't Live in Your Bank Account 04:43 — Meaning Isn't Found.

CROSSING THE DELAWARE AND THE VICTORY AT TRENTON Colleague Patrick O'Donnell. On Christmas night 1776, Washington launched a surprise attack on Trenton requiring a crossing of the ice-choked Delaware River. O'Donnell explains that only the diverse Marblehead Regiment, which included African American and Hispanicsoldiers, possessed the skill to navigate the treacherous waters. Once across, Glover's men secured a decisive tactical advantage by capturing the Assunpink Creek bridge, trapping the Hessian forces. The segment notes that future president James Monroe was severely wounded during the battle and saved by a volunteer doctor. NUMBER 61876

They need to see how real operators actually think when scaling. This episode is a raw, behind-the-scenes strategy session where Chris Dufey sits down with Brian Mark to break down the exact thinking, systems, and decisions currently being used to scale a coaching business toward multi-seven figures per month. What you're listening to isn't a polished interview. It's a real working conversation. The same type of call we run with partners and clients when we're diagnosing growth bottlenecks and mapping the fastest path forward. Not theory. No "just post more content" nonsense. —— In this video: 00:00 — Inside a real scaling strategy session 00:14 — Why Brian's a rocketship (and why that matters) 01:06 — Why most coaches are stuck on the content hamster wheel 01:38 — Diagnosing bottlenecks in a growing business 01:52 — The 3 key buckets behind multi-seven-figure growth 02:09 — Engineering ads and funnels that actually convert 02:22 — Staying in your zone of genius as you scale 02:32 — Why you can't stay a one-person operation 02:41 — Building a team without chaos 02:53 — Measuring success without guessing 03:09 — The system that turns attention into revenue 03:29 — Why live workshops still work 03:49 — Repositioning calls for warmer buyers 04:19 — Fixing call fatigue and market skepticism 05:11 — Why you're not "one funnel away" 05:20 — The 3-bucket growth framework (know → trust → convert) 05:55 — Eliminating operational drag 06:12 — What actually creates rapid, clean growth 06:22 — Lead generation tools that still work 06:46 — Using WhatsApp and messaging correctly 07:12 — Outbound done the right way 07:21 — Where to go deeper (RMAS system) 07:35 — The critical numbers most coaches ignore 08:04 — Removing uncertainty from growth 08:22 — How this system works end-to-end 08:45 — Going deeper with the full model 08:58 — Doing it yourself —— If this is our first time meeting, hey

Utilizing data from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based observatories, researchers traced the influence of Saguara as it interacts with Betelgeuse's outer atmosphere. This discovery sheds light on the star's peculiar brightness variations and its eventual fate as it nears a supernova explosion, which could occur at any time in astronomical terms.A Black Hole's Powerful FeastIn a remarkable observation, astronomers witnessed a black hole shredding a massive star in what is described as the most powerful event of its kind ever recorded. Known as a gravitational tidal disruption event, this phenomenon released energy equivalent to 400 billion times that of our Sun, surpassing even the most energetic supernovae. The event, cataloged as AT 2024WPP, offers new insights into black hole behavior and the dynamics of stellar destruction.BepiColombo's Journey to MercuryThe BepiColombo spacecraft is nearing its orbit insertion around Mercury after a seven-year journey. Launched in 2018, this multi-spacecraft mission will study Mercury's surface, magnetic field, and interaction with solar activity. The mission consists of two orbiters that will work in tandem to gather comprehensive data about this enigmatic planet, promising to enhance our understanding of planetary formation and evolution.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrophysical JournalMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical SocietyEuropean Space Agency ReportsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

"The Making of the John Batchelor Show" is a live-streaming "beta" experiment launched by John Batchelor on Monday, January 12, 2026. The primary objective of this specific program is to demonstrate "total transparency" by allowing the audience to see the behind-the-scenes process and technical "bumps" involved in producing the show.According to the sources, this format provides several unique insights into the show's production: Live Recording for Radio: While the stream is broadcast live, Batchelor and his guests record specific segments that are later lined up for the standard radio audience in the evening. Technical Troubleshooting: The stream captures the raw interactions between Batchelor and his producer, Chris Noel, as they manage software like StreamYard, troubleshoot audio issues with guests, and coordinate the timing of the "go live" countdown. Real-Time Coordination: The sources show Batchelor and co-host Bill Roggio managing the schedule in real-time, such as texting guests like Jonathan Seiya to arrange interview slots between other segments like "New World". A "Maiden Voyage": Batchelor describes this weekday streaming effort as a "maiden voyage" and a way to jump into the "pool" of new technology, even when they are not entirely confident in the tools. Expert Integration: The format allows for casual introductions and pre-interviews between experts, such as when Batchelor introduced David Shedd to Bill Roggio before they began a formal recorded segment on China's cyber-espionage. Throughout the broadcast, the experts used this transparent platform to analyze an "unprecedented" period of global instability. They covered a wide array of topics, including the news blackout in Iran, the "fiction" of U.S. strikes in Syria, and the shift toward center-right governments in Latin America following the removal of Nicolas Maduro.In essence, "The Making of the John Batchelor Show" functions like a "glass-walled studio," where the audience observes both the polished geopolitical analysis and the unscripted logistical efforts required to bring that analysis to the airwaves.1850 SUBURB OF TEHRAN

SHOW1-12-26"THE MAKING OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW""The Making of the John Batchelor Show" is a live-streaming "beta" experiment launched by John Batchelor on Monday, January 12, 2026. The primary objective of this specific program is to demonstrate "total transparency" by allowing the audience to see the behind-the-scenes process and technical "bumps" involved in producing the show.GLOBAL CHAOS AND THE EROSION OF STABILITY Colleagues Bill Roggio and Husain Haqqani. The guests discuss worldwide instability, arguing that the US has abandoned its traditional role in maintaining global order. They examine conflicts in Iran, Syria, and Venezuela, suggesting US actions are often driven by whims rather than strategic planning, leading to a state of heightened chaos. NUMBER 1FICTIONS IN SYRIA AND THE RISKS OF INTERVENTION Colleagues Bill Roggio and Husain Haqqani. The discussion focuses on the Syrian conflict, criticizing the US for maintaining "fictions" about local actors and security forces. Haqqani warns against military intervention in Iran, citing past failures like Vietnam and Iraq, noting that military force cannot solve misunderstood political problems. NUMBER 2CHINA'S GREAT HEIST OF AMERICAN SECRETS Colleagues David Shedd and Bill Roggio. David Sheddoutlines China's extensive cyber espionage campaigns, including "Salt Typhoon," which successfully hacked US Congressional committees. These operations aim to steal sensitive communications and embed sabotage tools within USinfrastructure, highlighting a critical failure in American defensive preparedness. NUMBER 3REGIME CHANGE AND SHIFTING POWER IN THE AMERICAS Colleagues David Shedd and Bill Roggio. Shedd details the removal of Nicolas Maduro and a regional shift toward center-right governments. This transition aims to end Russian and Chinese influence in the Western Hemisphere. Furthermore, the US is demanding stricter security cooperation from Mexico to dismantle powerful drug cartels. NUMBER 4IRANIAN PROTESTS AND THE COLLAPSE OF REGIME CONTROL Colleague Malcolm Hoenlein. Protests across Iran have turned deadly, with reports of hundreds killed by live fire and hospitals refusing wounded demonstrators. Malcolm Hoenlein highlights a communication blackout and a collapsing economy where the currency has plummeted. A new minority coalition of Baluchis and Kurds is now supporting rebellion. NUMBER 5THE SHIFTING BALANCE OF FEAR IN IRAN Colleague Malcolm Hoenlein. As the regime faces potential implosion, discussions involve a return of the Shah's son as a symbolic figurehead, though no clear path to collective leadership exists. Revolutionaries are now tagging the homes of officials, signaling that the balance of fear has shifted from the people to the leadership. NUMBER 6RUSSIA'S ORESHNIK MISSILE AND PSYCHOLOGICAL DETERRENCE Colleague John Hardy. Russia is utilizing the Oreshnik missile to strike Ukrainian infrastructure, leaving thousands without heat. John Hardy explains these strikes serve as psychological intimidation to deter Western nations from providing security guarantees or ground troops. Recent strikes likely targeted an aircraft repair plant, not gas storage. NUMBER 7ESCALATING CONFLICT BETWEEN SYRIAN FORCES AND KURDISH ALLIES Colleague Akmed Khari. Clashes have erupted in Aleppo between the Syrian government and the Kurdish SDF after a failed integration agreement. Akmed Khari notes the complexity of the US coordinating with Syrian security forces that remain riddled with jihadists. The conflict is expected to expand into other contested regions. Analogy: The situation in Syria is like a shaky alliance between rival firefighters who, while ostensibly trying to put out the same blaze, begin turning their hoses on each other while the fire continues to spread. NUMBER 8THE US-MANAGED TRANSITION IN POST-MADURO VENEZUELA Colleague Ernesto Araújo. John Batchelor and Ernesto Araújo discuss the US-led operation that captured Nicolas Maduro. Araújo describes the current situation as a well-managed transition where the US is navigating internal power struggles among military factions and criminal gangs rather than allowing a power vacuum to form. NUMBER 9REGIONAL SHIFTS: COLOMBIA'S DIPLOMACY AND BRAZIL'S POLITICAL FUTURE Colleague Ernesto Araújo. The discussion focuses on Gustavo Petro's pivot toward the United States and the historical concept of "Grand Colombia." In Brazil, they evaluate Lula da Silva's potential re-election bid against the enduring popularity of the imprisoned Jair Bolsonaro and the influence of new nationalist political forces. NUMBER 10REGIONAL REACTIONS TO MADURO'S CAPTURE AND THE ISOLATION OF CUBA Colleague Alejandro Peña Esclusa. Alejandro Peña Esclusa reports that Venezuelans are celebrating Maduro's capture while the Trumpadministration halts oil shipments to Cuba. He explains that regional left-wing leaders fear a trial will reveal their corrupt ties to Maduro, while the Cuban regime faces collapse without Venezuelan energy. NUMBER 11THE FOUR FAMILIES OF CARACAS AND THE END OF THE REGIME Colleague Alejandro Peña Esclusa. Esclusa analyzes the four mafias currently competing for power in Caracas: the Rodriguez siblings, Diosdado Cabello, Padrino Lopez, and Maduro's remnants. He argues that overwhelming US military force has rendered local weapons irrelevant and that the dismantling of these groups is necessary for elections. NUMBER 12ESCALATING IRANIAN PROTESTS AND POTENTIAL US INTERVENTION Colleague Edmund Fitton-Brown. Edmund Fitton-Brown describes the current Iranian protests as a movement that has shifted into a repression phase characterized by internet blackouts and rising casualties. He argues that US military force targeting repression organs could tip the balance in favor of the protesters, who are increasingly calling for a constitutional monarchy. The regime is reportedly attempting to negotiate following US strike threats. NUMBER 13THE COLLAPSE OF THE AXIS OF RESISTANCE Colleague Edmund Fitton-Brown. Fitton-Brown explains how the fall of the Iranian regime would devastate its regional proxies, including Hezbollah, the Houthis, and Iraqi militias, which depend on IRGC funding and training. Without Tehran's "big brother" support, these groups would likely be forced to make accommodations with local governments. He also notes Hezbollah's role as an international drug cartel. NUMBER 14THE ZOMBIE REGIME AND STRATEGIC TARGETS Colleague Jonathan Sai. Jonathan Sai labels the Islamic Republic a "zombie regime" facing an existential threat despite its brutal crackdowns. He reports that the IRGC and foreign militias are using automatic weapons against protesters in cities like Tehran and Mashhad. Sai suggests that USintervention should prioritize striking repression centers and state-run propaganda machines to dismantle the regime's control. NUMBER 15HEZBOLLAH'S SURVIVAL AND THE LOSS OF REGIONAL LIFELINES Colleague David Daoud. David Daoud characterizes Hezbollah as an ideological extension of Iran currently in survival mode as its lifelines in Syria and Venezuela weaken. While Hezbollah wants the regime to survive for power projection, Daoud suggests Iraqi militias are more likely to be physically assisting Tehran's crackdowns due to their proximity and lower combat losses compared to Hezbollah. To clarify the current state of the Iranian government, Jonathan Sai uses the metaphor of a "zombie regime": it may appear to be moving and in control, but it is functionally dead because it can no longer sustain its support base or provide basic necessities for its people.

Long before The Next Generation brought LCARS to life or 3D printers made cosplay easier, Star Trek fans relied on one book to make the Enterprise feel real: The Starfleet Technical Manual by Franz Joseph. In this week's episode, Larry Nemecek welcomes back Karen Schnaubelt, daughter of Franz Joseph, to mark the 50th anniversary of that seminal 1975 publication, just weeks after its surprise appearance atop the New York Times bestseller list. More than just a how-to guide for warp drives and turbo lifts, the Tech Manual became a cornerstone of Trek fandom and helped lay the foundation for the Star Trek revival that followed. Karen reflects on her father's unique journey from retired engineer to pop culture icon, how the Technical Manual grew out of lunch-hour sketches and club meetings, and what it was like watching fandom embrace a book that treated Star Trek like a living universe. Plus, Larry and Karen discuss how that very success may have stirred some tension in Gene Roddenberry's orbit.

Because most businesses aren't stalled because funnels don't work, ads don't work, or content doesn't work. Most people aren't stuck because funnels don't work, ads don't work, or the content doesn't work. They're stalled because they're optimizing the wrong part of the business. I've sold a multi–seven-figure coaching business. Launched a consulting offer to a $1M run rate in 63 days. Scaled an agency to $200k/month in under 90 days. And after working behind the scenes of some of the most profitable info and coaching businesses out there, I can tell you this: Growth is way simpler than people make it. In this video, I walk you through: • The 3 biggest mistakes keeping businesses stuck • Why random acts of marketing kill momentum • How to diagnose the real bottleneck slowing growth • The Precision Cycle: diagnose → install → optimize → repeat • Why scaling broken systems makes everything worse • The 10K-a-Day Plan for mechanical growth • The 8 foundational playbooks every business needs • The 5 core departments every business must be built on • Why freedom has to be designed, not hoped for This isn't theory. It's the exact framework we use with members to remove guesswork and make growth predictable. You don't need a longer to-do list. You need clarity on what matters right now.

  Is it 1985 or 2026? Because the air in Chicago hasn't felt this electric since Coach Mike Ditka was roaming the sidelines in his famous sweater vest. Did you see Walter Payton :) I did in all those players. The smiles gave it away.  In this episode, I am breaking down the legendary Bears vs. Packers rivalry and how the city of Chicago has finally found its soul again.  For years, critics looked down on Caleb Williams questioning their style, his swagger and attitude, and whether he had the right "mojo" to lead any NFL team. Caleb Williams was treated like an fishing expensive lure that looks good on the shelf but can't catch a thing in rough water. But look at him now. We're diving into how the right mentorship has unlocked his potential.  It's a reminder that in football—and in fishing—you don't have to change your nature to succeed; you just need the right environment and a good mentor that understands you. When the city gets behind you and the right coaches believe in you, you stop playing "safe" and start playing like a legend. Same holds true in fishing.  We also explore why this rivalry brings out the absolute best in sports. While Chicago brings the urban grit, the Packers draw from the collective energy of the entire state of Wisconsin—a "small-town" force that fuels a global powerhouse. It's a clash of cultures and you gotta love that!  In this episode: The Culture Shift: Why Chicago finally feels like a "Ditka-era" football town again. Silencing the Doubters: How Caleb proved that with the right mentorship, you can be exactly who you are. State vs. City: How the Packers' statewide energy forces the Bears to elevate their game. The Fisherman's Perspective: Why the best Bears seasons—much like the best fishing trips—require patience, the right "fishing spot," and a whole lot of heart.

Most people think scaling means more. More offers. More funnels. More hires. More chaos. That's the lie. In this video, I break down exactly how I hit a $1M run rate in 63 days with no team, no paid ads, no fancy launch, and why doing less is what finally worked. This came right after I sold my last multi–seven-figure business. I was burnt out. Overbuilt. Drowning in complexity. So I made one promise to myself: This one has to feel light. No 15-person team. No bloated Slack channels. No pretending I love to grind. Just a clean system that prints cash without running my life. Here's what actually moved the needle: • Why most offers sound clever but don't solve real pain • The "hell yes" test your offer must pass • How simplifying to one offer, one funnel, one metric changed everything • Why leverage isn't automation… it's efficiency • How I rebuilt delivery so clients win faster with less of me • The exact message that filled my calendar with high-value clients • The timeline exercise that shows you what to cut (and what to keep) No standard 'guru' speak. No 47-module programs. No outdated hustle advice. Just a simple machine that works even when you're offline. If your business feels heavier than it should… If you're working harder but not scaling cleaner… If you want a path to growth that doesn't wreck your life… This episode is for you.

Send us a textTwo strangers walked into a retreat planning to keep to themselves and walked out knit together by faith, curiosity, and a shared ache for real belonging. That moment sparked Heart and Soul Elevation: a space where we put Jesus at the center and let mind and body align around Him. We trace the unlikely path from “let's be alone” to launching a community built for women who love God, crave honesty, and want wellness that actually heals.We unpack why so many women feel out of place in church groups and service roles, always giving but rarely refueled. Then we flip the wellness script: instead of “mind, body, spirit,” we start with the Spirit and let everything else flow from there. You'll hear how the neuroscience of connection backs this up—oxytocin rises in safe relationships, cortisol quiets, and the nervous system shifts into a state where genuine healing can begin. From the “rat park” research to practical rhythms of rest, we explore how community changes behavior, biology, and hope.We also challenge the pressure cooker version of the Proverbs 31 woman that leads to hustle and exhaustion. Together, we name the difference between striving and stewardship, between performing and belonging. Our vision is clear: spark a movement of women who pursue Jesus first, steward their health with wisdom, and lift families and communities through renewed vitality. If you've ever felt like the odd one out or if you're ready to trade isolation for sisterhood, you'll find a home here.Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs encouragement, and join us on YouTube to grow in real time with a community that remembers: healing happens together. We're so glad you're here. In this quick pause, Melissa shares why Heart & Soul Elevation exists, how Stephanie's and Melissa's coaching work together beautifully, and what you can expect along the way. From time to time, we'll pop in to invite you into things we're creating - always as an invitation, never a sales pitch. Thanks for listening.

REVENGE, REVOLUTION, AND THE BIRTH OF A PATRIOT Colleague Professor Robert G. Parkinson. In 1774, a grief-stricken Logan launched a brutal revenge campaign, killing nearly 20 people to "glut his vengeance." This violence occurred as the Continental Congress began forming an army, calling for rifle companies from the frontier. Ironically, Michael Cresap, the man Logan blamed for the murders, was appointed to lead a Maryland rifle company. As Lord Dunmore launched a war against the Shawnee to secure land for Virginia, Logan delivered his famous lament to his brother-in-law John Gibson, signaling that his personal war was over and he was satisfied with the blood he had spilled. NUMBER 4

THE TET OFFENSIVE AND THE SIEGE OF KHE SANH Colleague Geoffrey Wawro. In 1968, North Vietnamlaunched the Tet Offensive to deliver a knockout blow; while a military disaster for the communists, the televised breach of the US Embassy shattered American claims of progress and turned public opinion. Simultaneously, the siege of Khe Sanh symbolized the war's futility, as US forces fought fiercely to hold the base only to abandon and bulldoze it shortly after the battle concluded. These events led trusted figures like Walter Cronkite to declare the war a stalemate, convincing President Johnson that he had lost the support of middle America. NUMBER 12

THE 1936 OLYMPICS AND DIPLOMATIC GAMES Colleague Charles Spicer. During the 1936 Berlin Olympics, the Nazi regime launched a charm offensive, wining and dining officials like Vansittart, who returned to Londonalarmed yet somewhat placated by Hitler's apparent desire for peace. Ribbentrop, desperate for promotion, hosted lavish events but was viewed by British diplomats as an intellectual lightweight and socially insecure. In a significant diplomatic maneuver, the Anglo-German Fellowship circumvented Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin's refusal to meet Hitler by arranging for former Prime Minister David Lloyd George to visit the dictator.

This week by special listener request, Matt and Joe are delving into Icewind Dale -- perhaps literally, because it involves the iconic character Drizzt Do'Urden, the Drow Ranger. Icewind Dale began simply as a region in Dungeons and Dragons, and then became the title of a series of three novels penned by R. A. Salvatore, with the first published in 1988 and the last in 1990, and then a video game in 2000 set in the region. As such, there is a ton of lore to discuss, including its roots, which begin -- like almost every work in modern fantasy fiction -- back with Tolkien, and its use as a setting in D&D. Join us as we discuss one of the most beloved series in the D&D oeuvre.If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free! Hosted on Acast.
