In this week's episode, Stacey dives into Zach's results, focusing on his score improvement and the strategies he employed during his preparation. They also explore the emotional aspects of test-taking, the importance of reviewing results, and the next steps in Zach's study plan.

Life challenges can serve as motivation during test preparation. It's common for scores to fluctuate; not every practice test will show improvement. Understanding the exam structure can help reduce anxiety. Reviewing questions you got wrong is crucial for future success. Focus on low-hanging fruit when studying for improvement. Practice tests should be taken within a few days of review for better retention. The EA exam's panel structure can be psychologically comforting. Setting realistic goals for future practice tests is essential.  Chapters: 00:00 Introduction and Practice Exam Results 01:35 Score Analysis and Improvement Strategies 03:58 Life Challenges and Test Performance 05:47 Reviewing Practice Exam Results 08:34 Next Steps and Future Practice Tests 10:28 Exam Structure and Test-Taking Strategies

Have you ever felt like you're the only one facing challenges while everyone else has it all together? Maybe you've also experienced the opposite–people overlook your struggles due to your success.Here's the reality: everyone struggles–even the most capable, successful people. When we're in the thick of it, it's easy to feel isolated, judged, and wonder if we're the only one who has to overcome challenges. This podcast is about understanding what it really means to master life–it's not about checking boxes, but learning to lean into self-connection as we face the challenges of life that come our way.In this episode, I talk about this topic with one of my good friends and colleagues, Kris Jones. You've probably heard Kris on the podcast before–she is a copywriter who specializes in story brand copy, and she is a brilliant businesswoman. Alongside that success, just like all of us, there have been some significant challenges in Kris's life. Today, Kris Jones shares her story of navigating challenges with her son, handling judgment from others, balancing her thriving business with her personal life, and ultimately finding strength and joy in the midst of it all.We often compare our internal experiences–the emotions, the struggles, the despair–with what we see on the exterior of someone else's life. But comparison never gives the full story. We all face challenges that others may not see, just as we're often blind to the hardships among others' achievements. No one is exempt from having to overcome challenges—you are not alone. Let's dive into learning how to face life challenges with honesty, resilience, and connection to ourselves.What you'll learn:The importance of self-connection and working with your own nervous system when facing life challengesWhy it's human to feel sadness and grief when facing judgment from othersHow to navigate business success and personal challenges without burning outWhy you don't need to feel guilty about finding a creative escape during difficult timesThe key to staying the course and not giving up when you face challenges in lifeYou can read the full show notes here.About Kris Jones:Most coaches don't have a marketing problem—they have a messaging problem. Your dream clients are likely visiting your website and quietly clicking away, not because your offer isn't valuable, but because your story isn't clear. After 23 years crafting stories for brands like Nike and Adidas, Kris Jones discovered a game-changing truth: a single, well-told story can replace all your marketing and double your revenue. As a hand-selected mentee of StoryBrand's Donald Miller and founder of Red Door Stories, she's helped hundreds of coaches transform their websites into 24/7 client-attracting machines. Marketing overwhelm ends when you tell the right story. Let Kris show you how.Website: https://www.reddoorstories.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reddoordesign/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/reddoorportland/?fref=tsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reddoordesigns/YouTube:

Last May Growing Greener featured the challenge that Plan it Wild, a rewilding design and installation firm, posed to American homeowners: to replace 25 square feet of lawn with locally indigenous plants.  Today we hear how nearly 10,000 people in 49 states committed to this 12-week online program, how backyard biodiversity flourished as a result, and how the challenge is expanding through neighborhoods to reach people who hadn't previously considered devoting their landscapes to reinforcing the regional ecosystem.

Courage doesn't mean fearlessness—it means standing firm despite our fears. The upcoming Fearless Faith conference, hosted by Christian Life Resources on September 13th at Kettle Moraine Lutheran High School in Jackson, Wisconsin, offers exactly what today's Christians need: biblical wisdom for navigating our complex world.Based on Joshua 1:9, this one-day gathering brings together remarkable speakers who understand firsthand what it means to face life's storms with God's strength. From Pastor Fleischman's opening sermon "Someone Must Die" to Dr. Stacey Jensen's insights on finding peace through personal loss, each session addresses real challenges Christians face. Dr. Rob Balza tackles the ethics of prenatal testing with practical frameworks, while Heather from Wisconsin Right to Life shares her powerful journey as an anorexia survivor, connecting her experience to concerning trends in euthanasia. Sheila Luck rounds out the day with her testimony of finding healing after abortion and offers guidance for having meaningful conversations about difficult topics.What sets this conference apart is its accessibility and relevance. Whether you attend in person ($50, or just $10 for students) with lunch and snacks included, or join virtually ($40, or $5 for students), you'll leave equipped to face today's ethical challenges with confidence. The hybrid format ensures everyone can participate, and the day's schedule (9:00am-3:30pm) provides substantial content without overwhelming attendees.

Have you ever noticed how easy it is to slip into negative thought patterns, even when you're actively working to maintain a positive mindset? That automatic default mode seems hardwired into our human experience, especially during stressful times.In this heartfelt exploration, I share my morning journal practice and the profound impact of developing what I call "the poet's eye" – a way of seeing that finds beauty and meaning in ordinary moments. This isn't about ignoring life's challenges or pretending everything is perfect. Rather, it's about training ourselves to notice the sacred in the everyday, to appreciate the small miracles unfolding around us, and to actively author our own life stories instead of passively accepting whatever narrative unfolds.I share an original, unpublished poem straight from my journal – a raw, unpolished offering about finding appreciation when "the world is affixed in gritty grays." The poem emerged organically during my morning reflection, a gentle reminder that creativity often arrives when we create space for it. Through this personal sharing, we explore how qualities like authenticity, self-empathy, and peace can become intentional anchors during challenging weeks.Perhaps most importantly, we redefine what peace actually means. Rather than waiting for external circumstances to become peaceful (which rarely happens!), we discover how to cultivate inner stillness regardless of outer chaos. Peace becomes not a destination but a practice – finding harmony within the disharmony, stillness within movement, and grace within imperfection. Join me in this intimate conversation about becoming relentless beauty-seekers and compassionate storytellers of our own lives.

#370 In this episode, Guy welcomed Pamela Downes, a trance channeler, who shared her profound journey from entrepreneurship to spiritual awakening. Pamela discussed her experiences with psychic abilities, past life traumas, awakening through ayahuasca ceremonies, and channeling high-frequency beings. The conversation covered insights into the future, spiritual preparedness, and the importance of elevating frequency and vibration. Pamela emphasized the shift from religious confines to universal spirituality and the role of premonitions in guiding humanity through upcoming changes. She also highlighted the significance of an evolving spiritual community and resources to support individuals on their spiritual path. About Pamela: Pamela's story is one of a spiritual awakening, sparked by the mysteries of life after death and a yearning to explore the spiritual world. Following her father's passing, Pamela immersed herself in a quest for meaning, navigating the realms of energy healing, the law of attraction, and the boundless potential of the human spirit. Fueled by psychic encounters, synchronicities, and the revelation of her reality-shaping abilities, Pamela heeded an inner call to embrace a path of self-discovery.  Her transformation unfolded through shamanic journeys, Reiki healing, Akashic records block release, and a profound connection with psychic medium Rich B – a spiritual friend who guided her for eight transformative years. The pinnacle of this period arrived when Pamela recognized that Ayahuasca and Rythmia Life Advancement Center were the next steps in her journey, catapulting her into an experience that heightened her psychic abilities and awakened all her Clare senses.

Ever notice how the universe seems to throw its biggest challenges at you right when cosmic energies are at their peak? That's no coincidence. Dr. BethAnne Kapansky Wright explores the powerful practice of anchoring into our hearts during times of transition and cosmic intensity. She shares a personal moment when, despite exhaustion and midnight approaching, she honored her commitment to her oracle card practice – a decision that reset her perspective and reconnected her to her inner wisdom. This authentic glimpse into her spiritual routine reminds us that consistency matters, especially when life feels overwhelming.The beauty of heart connection lies in its accessibility. You don't need perfect conditions or hours of free time – even two minutes of intentional heart focus can shift your entire energetic state. Like creating a well-worn path through the woods, each time we practice dropping into our heart space, the journey becomes more familiar. We develop spiritual muscle memory that allows us to find our center with increasing ease, even during chaos.With the Lionsgate portal and full moon energies swirling around us, big transformations are inevitable. But cosmic magic doesn't always arrive wrapped in wonder and delight. Sometimes it comes disguised as disruption, challenging us to stay awake through difficulty. Your heart becomes the compass that helps navigate both the mystical opportunities and the earthly challenges of these powerful times.Ready to strengthen your connection to your heart's wisdom? Join us for this illuminating episode and discover how to create your own pathway to inner truth.

What if your dreams could tell you exactly who you're meant to be?

Are your life challenges really obstacles… or are they invitations from your soul? In this Soul Elevation livestream, I share how our struggles—whether personal or global, like the collective trauma we experienced during COVID—can be powerful catalysts for awakening and transformation. I open up about my own journey: from a period of intense loss and emotional overwhelm, to how meditation became the doorway to deep spiritual connection. It wasn't instant or easy, but it changed everything. In this episode, I talk about how your soul may be gently (or sometimes not so gently) nudging you to remember who you really are—and how life doesn't have to fall apart before you begin that reconnection. ✨ Ask yourself: Are you spending your time scrolling, or soul-growing? You have the power to create space for your inner truth—starting right now.

Text us your feedback or questions - we'd love to hear from you.This one's powerful. If you or someone you love has worn the uniform, you already know that the battles don't always stop when deployment ends. And when veterans divorce, there's usually a whole lot beneath the surface leading up to the split.  In this episode of The Splitting Smart Podcast, I'm sitting down with someone I deeply respect: Hon. Mark Johnson (Ret.), an Iraq War vet, Bronze Star recipient, and the judge on the Veterans Court in Riverside County. He's seen it all—PTSD, moral injury, addiction—and he's here to share what most people (even lawyers) miss when a veteran ends up in family court. We talk about trauma, recovery, justice, and the marriages caught in between. In this episode: Trauma and healing: what a decade of Veterans Court taught Judge Johnson  The signs of combat-related PTSD—and how they impact marriage Why reintegration is harder than people realize When domestic violence can really be about untreated trauma (and what to do about it) What spouses and lawyers need to ask—but usually don't Stories of recovery, redemption, and hope About Mark Johnson: Hon. Mark Johnson (Ret.) served as a Superior Court Judge and Colonel in the U.S. Army. He's a decorated Iraq War veteran and longtime advocate for veterans who find themselves in the justice system, especially those struggling with PTSD and trauma. His novel, Scars and Strife, brings these stories to life through fiction rooted in truth. Stay tuned for Part 2 (episode 62): In the next episode, we dive deeper into veteran divorce, and what it takes to build real co-parenting agreements after military service and trauma. HON.

“Since I was a young gal with two thin blonde sisters, and I, a strong, muscled and dark-haired lass, I grew up with body dysmorphia. I didn't know it was OK to be different. I was never obese. I never was fat. I was just muscled. Pudgy. Fluffy. I went to college, discovered sports, and my skin felt wonderful. That began a lifelong love affair with/ exercise. I also found the ice cream cooler at the end of the cafeteria. I might've put on a little weight in college! Maybe not the freshman 15, but more padding!!! After college, I was selected for a job on a cruise ship as a working journalist and had a wonderful time sailing worldwide.  I was terrified about gaining weight with all the gorgeous food they had. And I had a wine budget formy dining room table guests! After the ship, I travelled around by myself overseas.  Back in the states, I did several jobs before meeting my forever fellow. We moved to the West Coast, married, and had two children.    I was challenged to maintain a weight of 140- 150 pounds during this time. At 5 feet 2 inches, that is just too much for me.I had tried Weight Watchers back on the East Coast and tried it again, counting everything I ate, weighing, measuring, and wondering when my next snack would be. Well, it worked until 2020, when it didn't work. I found my way to intermittent fasting through Gin Stephens. That was back in 2021, November 6, to be exact, is the day I started.  I jumped on the wagon right then. I am the “pull off the Band-Aid kind of gal”, and I plunged into fasting between 16 and 18 hours. I began right away with the clean fast cause Gin schooled me.  I had impressive results and fell short of my goal of 125. When I started, I weighed 142, I think. And when I weighed in at 125, I had shed 17 inches of body fat. That was from November 2021 to February 2022. Yup! right through the holidays, ha ha! My first interview with Graeme (# 141 in 2022) shares that journey and success. Today, with Graeme, I wish to share…how I navigated open heart surgery and kept my fasting life alive…as the medical staff cheered and took notes!!To join the Patreon Community.
