Two hundred episodes… WTF! I genuinely wasn't sure when I hit record on episode one whether there would be a second. And here we are.This isn't a ‘best of' clip show or a trip down memory lane for its own sake. I'm sharing the twenty things I know now that I wish I'd known at the beginning, about podcasting, about business, about showing up consistently when it feels pointless, and about what it actually takes to build something that lasts.If you're a podcaster, thinking about starting a podcast, or you've got one that's been gathering dust because you lost momentum, this one's for you.Here's a little tease of some of the lessons…On keeping going when it feels pointlessThere WILL be stretches, sometimes long ones, where you feel like you're just talking into the void. Downloads are disappointing. Your inbox is silent. You hit publish and get nothing back. Keep going anyway. The people who need your show will find it, sometimes months or years after you recorded it, at exactly the moment they need it. The quiet periods aren't a sign you're failing. They're part of the process.On consistency as a competitive advantagePodcasting is one of the few places where showing up, week after week, even imperfectly, is genuinely enough to stand out. MOST podcasters can't do it. Your listeners make you part of their routine. When you disappear without warning, you break something. That trust is fragile and worth protecting.On sound quality - the one non-negotiablePeople will forgive you for fluffing your words. They will not forgive bad audio. This is not a soft suggestion. Poor sound quality creates physical resistance in your listener and they WILL click away - not because they're not interested in what you have to say, but because they can't stand listening to poor quality audio. Who can?! Invest in your sound. Everything else is optional. Your audio is not.On finding your LinahA proper shout-out to my podcast editor Linah Macharia, who has been with me since episode one. A great editor is a creative partner who holds the continuity of your show in a way you simply can't when you're too close to it. If you find someone who gets what you're building and shows up for it consistently, treasure them.On niche, evolution, and the show telling you what it wants to beThe other sixteen lessons cover everything from why your worst episodes teach you the most, to why silence in an interview is gold, to how your backstory is your greatest asset rather than something to hide. We talk about marketing without performance, building for permanence over trending, and what it means when your audience wants to know you, not just learn from you.The One That Matters MostBegin before you're ready. And then keep beginning.That's it. That's the whole thing.A Note on This ShowThis podcast started as a way to share what I know about building a business that actually fits the person running it. It has become something much bigger than that. A record of my own evolution, a community of women who are done performing their way through entrepreneurship, and proof that the quiet, consistent, relationships-first approach works.Thank you for being here. Whether you've been with me since episode one or this is the first episode you've ever heard, welcome. There's plenty more to come.Mentioned in This Episode- Linah, podcast editor and legend - https://linahmacharia.com/Work With MeIf this episode resonated and you're ready to build a business that actually fits you, one rooted in authenticity, depth, and real relationships rather than algorithm-chasing, here's how we can work together:Legacy: High level 1:1 coaching.

Send a textAfter more than 300 episodes of conversations with engineers, founders, and technical leaders, certain patterns start to emerge. In this special retrospective episode of Being An Engineer, Aaron Moncur and Brad Hirayama flip the mic around to distill the biggest lessons learned from six years of interviews. Instead of focusing on any single quote or guest, they zoom out and identify the recurring themes that consistently show up in the careers of high-performing engineers. Surprisingly, none of the top takeaways are about mastering CAD tools or memorizing GD&T standards. They explore why understanding the business—not just the engineering—can dramatically accelerate your career. They unpack why soft skills and communication are non-negotiable if you want to move beyond being “just” a technical contributor. They discuss the transformational impact of mentors and coaches, and how simple habits like lunch conversations and honest feedback can change your trajectory. Aaron and Brad also dive into what it really means to “do more than you're paid for”—not by working longer hours, but by focusing on high-impact contributions that move the business forward. And they explain why establishing repeatable processes, checklists, and systems is one of the most overlooked drivers of engineering success. Finally, they introduce a new three-part mini-series on accelerating the speed of engineering, previewing practical tactics like hacking prototypes from off-the-shelf products and building psychological safety so teams surface problems early. If you want to grow faster, lead better, and think beyond the technical, this episode delivers a clear blueprint drawn from hundreds of real-world engineering stories.

He is the co-founder of Honu Worldwide and Innovative Product Development, Sourcing and 3PL company based in Pennsylvania. Afolabi has always been a has always been passionate about finding things, haggling and negotiating prices.

Welcome to the show.Afolabi 00:00:53 Thank you Josh. I'm happy to be here. I'm excited.Josh 00:00:56 You know, if you were to restart on Amazon, which I think that's what you're doing now, is you're creating some new brands and launching them on Amazon. What are some of those lessons, actionable takeaways that you can give to other sellers to say, hey, here are the challenges that we faced at different points in the business, that I'm going to make sure that we don't go through these same challenges again in the future.Josh 00:01:20 If you wouldn't mind breaking some of those lessons learned for us. Breaking it down.Afolabi 00:01:25 I'm going to, if I were to start all over again, I'm also going to weave some stories and past experiences into it. So when somebody goes into E-comm, you're starting your e-commerce or you're starting your Amazon business. Sometimes we forget the reason why we started in the first place. We forget the reason why we quit our jobs and we went into e-commerce. For me, my main driver was freedom. I wanted freedom, I wanted to be. I wanted to be able to control my time. I wanted to be able to be there for my family any day, any time. I wanted to be able to take off. If I want to take off, I want to take off, you know? Yeah. So you start this e-com business and you're married to it. You know, you're you're you're waking up 3 a.m. in the morning. You're, you know, you're sleeping late at night. So eventually it defeats the purpose of why you started in the first place.Afolabi 00:02:21 So we found ourselves caught up in all those things. You know, me and my business partner, we would fight each other. You know why? Why? You know why are we running out of stock? I'm like, I didn't know that product was going to run out of stock, you know? You know, we didn't have a good system in place and we didn't have the freedom or anything. So going back now, looking back to where we came from to now, there are three things I'm going to do differently this time. First, I'm going to innovate. Second, I'm going to automate. Third, I'm going to have a lot of free time to think. Because for me, I believe that thinking time is a very creative time. I believe that your rest time is very important. People ask me, you know, you know, jokingly, maybe I'm speaking to Norm, I mean, Norm. You know, there's my business partner on you. You know, he picks, you know, he picks up on me a lot.Afolabi 00:03:19 He's like, hey, I love you. What did you do this weekend? I'm like, no, I did nothing. I just sat on my couch and I was watching soccer all day. I was not doing nothing. You know, sometimes he calls me. I said, I'm going to stop disturbing me. I'm on the field with my son. We're playing soccer here. Please. You know. Yeah.Josh 00:03:41 So, yeah.Afolabi 00:03:42 Freedom. Time to spend time with your loved one is very important. So I'll make sure that this time I automate so that I can free up myself to do whatever I want whenever I wanted to do it. I don't want anything just pressuring me down all the time. Because when I'm thinking I'm creating things that are so valuable in my rest time. Yeah, I could be sitting on a lounge. I mean, on a on a on a recliner. And you, you know, you when you're relaxed, when your mind is at rest, you so many creative ideas come to you and you can look into your business and, and actually spot all the things you are doing wrong when you're in a relaxed mode, you know?Josh 00:04:26 Yeah.Josh 00:04:27 So you're you're kind of three takeaways then, right? If you were to restart would be to innovate, automate and then have more time for thinking and just downtime in general. Right. So...

Last week, we wrestled with the fallout when a respected leader falls and the question it leaves behind: what hope is there for the rest of us?This week, Brody looks at the life of King Hezekiah. He tore down idols, trusted God under the threat of Assyria, and saw miraculous deliverance, yet later stumbled in pride before Babylon. His story holds both faith and failure.Brody also talks about approaching Scripture with humility, the daily fight with sin, and the kind of accountability that restores. It's not about a spotless record, but about a life being continually conformed to God through sanctification.What My Father's Fall Taught MeSend a textPlease leave a review on Apple or Spotify to help improve No Sanity Required and help others grow in their faith.

Adam interviews Mark Epstein, a psychiatrist and author, discussing the complex nature of desire from both a Buddhist and psychotherapeutic perspective. They explore how desire is often misunderstood as an obstacle, when in fact it can serve as a vehicle for spiritual growth and understanding.

"If I failed, I wanted it to be 100% my fault." In this special episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill reflect on 5000 days of building Crisp. They walk through the dark ages of working out of a dental office with $500 and no idea what they were doing, the years of building real infrastructure and systems, the $8 million Game Changers Summit at Mercedes-Benz Stadium that became their moon landing, and the final evolution where Michael removed himself as the bottleneck entirely. This is an unfiltered look at what building a nine-figure company actually requires at each stage: pure grit when you know nothing, relentless focus on brand when everyone's watching, and the discipline to build systems that work without you. Here's what you'll learn: Why working 100 hours a week got them to seven figures but would have capped them there forever How the brand became the only competitive advantage that matters and why people who hated them still respected what they built What it means to go from hustler to manager to leader to CEO to owner, and why each evolution requires letting go of what got you there 5000 days. Zero debt. 100% ownership. Built by people who believed before there was anything to believe in. ---- 01:53 – Why 5000 days of Crisp is worth celebrating and the surprise party that almost didn't happen. 09:57 – Why "I can outwork anyone" is a badge of honor early on and a liability later. 14:19 – What Jessica found when she walked into Crisp and why she bulldozed everything she saw. 18:13 – What it actually feels like to cross a million dollars in revenue when you've been grinding for years. 20:01 – The milestone that finally made Crisp feel legitimate and what it meant to be able to offer it. 31:41 – Why the Game Changers Summit was designed to feel like a rock concert, not a legal conference. 43:03 – What it took to pull off a legal conference at Mercedes-Benz Stadium and whether Michael would do it again. 48:49 – What the transition from CEO to owner actually looks like in practice and why it takes so long to get there. 53:25 – Why the value of your business is inversely proportional to its dependency on you. ---- Links & Resources: Game Changers Summit Joey Diaz Armageddon ---- Learn what sustainable growth can look like for your firm at crispcoach.com. ---- Do you love this podcast and want to see more game changing content?

Today's guest is Dan Cleather. Dan Cleather is a sport scientist, author, and lecturer specializing in biomechanics and strength training. He has worked across elite sport and higher education, helping coaches apply research to real-world performance. Dan is the author of The Little Black Book of Training Wisdom and The Little Blue Book of Training Wisdom, known for challenging conventional ideas and promoting evidence-informed coaching. If you search the internet for training methods and advice, you'll invariably get a “do this, not that” mentality woven in your brain. The mark of true progress over time, and reaching athletic potential, is more about principles and management than it is picking all the “S-Tier” exercises. Being able to balance paradoxes, hone belief, refine movement and hone the dance of capacity and output defines the training of elite athletes and Olympians. In this episode, Dan discusses everything from developing exercise devices for astronauts in microgravity to the deeper philosophy of how performance truly evolves. We discuss Easy Strength, capacity versus skill development, fatigue as a motor learning constraint, and why adaptation is something we cultivate rather than force. The conversation weaves biomechanics, Tai Chi, Olympic lifting, and the yin-yang rhythm of training into a broader theme: great coaching isn't about imposing perfection, but creating environments where flow, resilience, and high performance can naturally emerge.

In this episode of Derms and Conditions, host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, is joined by Steven Daveluy, MD, for a wide-ranging conversation that connects oncodermatology, teledermatology, and integrative approaches to patient care. The discussion opens with Dr Daveluy's work in an oncodermatology clinic and the critical role dermatologists play in managing cutaneous side effects from cancer therapies. He explains that while oncologists may be inclined to pause or discontinue cancer treatment in the face of severe skin reactions, dermatologists are uniquely positioned to identify, manage, and mitigate these effects, often allowing patients to remain on life-saving therapy and achieve better oncologic outcomes. The conversation then shifts to teledermatology, highlighting the Veterans Affairs health system's leadership in expanding access, particularly for rural patients. Dr Daveluy describes his team-based model in which dermatoscopy is standardized across sites, allowing frontline clinicians to submit high-quality images for rapid dermatologic input. Clinical pearls follow, including management of epidermal growth factor receptor-inhibitor eruptions with tetracyclines and selective use of agents such as isotretinoin or dapsone to keep patients on cancer therapy. Importantly, brisk skin reactions may correlate with positive tumor response, reinforcing the goal of treating through, rather than stopping, therapy. The episode concludes with an exploration of integrative dermatology. Dr Daveluy advocates for consideration of evidence-based supplements, thoughtful discussion of diet and stress, and careful counseling rather than dismissing patient interest. Case examples illustrate both benefit and harm, underscoring the importance of third-party testing and drug–supplement awareness. A final reflection on mind-body medicine through practices like “laughter yoga” highlights tools that can help patients reframe flares and improve quality of life, even when disease activity is beyond their control. Tune in to the episode to hear expert insights on managing cancer-therapy–related skin reactions, expanding access through teledermatology, and thoughtfully integrating complementary approaches into everyday dermatology practice.

Reviving the Citizen Soldier Ethos. War Face vs Society. Remembering the Founder's Vision. Lessons Learned in Ukraine and Afghanistan. Army Ranger Adrian Bonenberger has just thrown his hat in the ring for Governor of Connecticut — as an independent. In a wide-ranging conversation with host Paul Rieckhoff, Bonenberger unveils the centerpiece of his campaign: reviving the Connecticut State Guard as a voluntary, citizen-soldier force that would decentralize defense, create meaningful service opportunities for ordinary Americans, and counter the overreach of a federal government that has increasingly turned law enforcement into a militarized tool against its own citizens. The two combat veterans pull no punches on ICE — comparing its enforcement culture to the military's "warrior ethos" and explaining why deploying a kill-or-be-killed mindset against civilians is not just dangerous, but a fundamental betrayal of the founders' vision. Bonenberger draws on his experiences training troops in Afghanistan and volunteer fighters in Ukraine to make the case that America's civil-military divide is a national security vulnerability — and that a voluntary state guard is the constitutional remedy hiding in plain sight. Bonenberger also reflects on post-industrial New England, why Congress is effectively unfixable, ballot access hurdles facing independent candidates, and why he believes the governor's office is where real change can happen on day one. About Adrian Bonenberger: Adrian Bonenberger is an Army Ranger, Afghanistan combat veteran, journalist, and author. He co-founded American Veterans for Ukraine alongside Paul Rieckhoff and Bonnie Carroll and has lectured at Springfield College in Massachusetts.

[12:28] When the 17th ranked university in the country says, “I am interested in recruiting you to play high-level sports at the Group of Five,” which, by the way, we sit on an island in that, and I think we need to lean into this further... [13:09] We sit very isolated, but in this unique position where if you want high academics and you want to compete at the Group of Five, there's only one choice. That's a beautiful filter.Rice community stadium is more than just a football stadium17:30: It's not Rice Football Stadium, it is the Rice Community Stadium and football is going to be the primary tenant. But we need to expand the things that we do in it on a yearly basis...

Angelina Keeley & Aubry Bracco Survivor 50 Preseason Interviews Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) is here to chat to the cast of Survivor 50! Join us to hear from your favorite returning Survivor players! Today, Mike Bloom starts a preseason deep dive into the Vatu tribe featuring returnees Angelina Keeley and Aubry Bracco. Angelina opens up about her major life changes since David vs. Goliath, while Aubry reflects on her evolution across her storied Survivor journey, setting the stage for a season full of big personalities, new alliances, and possible blindsides. Mike chats with Angelina about what it's like to be called back after seven years away from the game, including leaving behind a young family and a new business to take another shot at the title of Sole Survivor. Angelina breaks down her approach heading into the game, how being a mom and entrepreneur brings a new flavor to her gameplay, why her “BFF, friend, or foe” approach will guide her alliances, and how she handles being labeled “chaotic.” Aubry discusses her surprise at being invited back, what she's learned from her three previous seasons, and how she aims to play with more self-awareness, adaptability, and focus on one-on-one connections. Both women weigh in on their perceptions of fellow castaways, discussing new era strategists, obvious threats, and the push and pull between loyalty and gameplay. Angelina ranks her cast as BFF, friend, or foe in a candid alliances game, revealing beef, admiration, and strategic wariness, especially when it comes to winners and new era players. Aubry shares how being blindsided in Edge of Extinction changed her approach, and why she's focused on staying grounded and present this time around. Both discuss leaving behind kids, running businesses, and the “joyful warrior” mindset they hope to channel on the island. Each interview explores Survivor's evolving meta, including whether recent winners should be targeted, which returnees are most dangerous, and how pre-existing relationships will shape alliances. Funny moments include Angelina's dream “summer solstice” camp party and her family rooting for Ozzy right alongside her. As the anticipation for season 50 builds, Mike asks: Can Angelina or Aubry climb higher on the Survivor ladder, or will new threats and old friends stand in their way? How will personal growth off the island translate into better game performance in Fiji's high-stakes returnee showdown?
