And today I want to talk about a fun topic that I think a lot of you deal with.   and that's burnout. And I know we've talked about it before, I know we've talked about it in the past, and I know it's not a fun topic, but I think it's a fun one to help people not have.   I think burnout, I was listening to I have a podcast that I really enjoy. It's   Life Wisdom   by Words of Taoism. And I just love different mindsets, different perspectives, and   I think this ties really heavily into today's topic. And he was talking about how, like, so many of us are per burnout, and it's this feeling of like, I'm just spent, I'm just exhausted, like I can't do one other thing. And they were talking about how oftentimes it's not just about the work that we're doing. A lot of times it's not actually the work, it's the mental load that we're carrying or the things that we're carrying behind. And it's that is what I want to talk about today is.   like the burnout and how we can get our life back without sacrificing all of it and what this looks like and work life balance and the cliche around it. But when I started thinking of like all the pieces that we do carry the stress of a team, the workload of actually doing it, stress of our families, conversations, replaying conversations in our mind, wondering if we did things correctly, like did I check the books? Did I talk to this team member correctly? D what do I need to do? There's so much weight.   thinking about how oftentimes like we build these businesses, not to be prisoners of them, but to actually have freedom from them. And I think sometimes it feels cliche and it feels like we're getting the exact opposite of that. And so I wanted to talk about like why we get the burnout similar to that. Like we're caring so much. It's not the workload. I don't think most of us, I think a lot of us are fine. I think it's the how much we're caring, it's the subconscious caring that doesn't ever leave us alone. And so what causes that shift in an   Hopefully just some like three tactical shifts that help you get your time, your energy, and your life back. And burnout is a lot of times a conversation we have with a lot of doctors. And I think having a coach, having a guide, having someone in your corner can help prevent that burnout sooner and quicker because we're gonna be listening to it, watching it. And I think having a safe space where you can say, like, I'm exhausted, I'm tired, like I don't physically think I can do that anymore. And then somebody questioning and saying, All right, like there's other, there's a thousand other paths to do it. Let's look and let's find that solution where you don't have to do it.   But we're able to have other people there with you. and I just I think that burnout, I think stress, I think carrying it, it's at every size of practice. So please don't think like, well, people don't deal with this. No, they do. No, like there's highs and lows, everybody has it, that we've got days we've got more of it, we've got days that we have less of it. and I don't think it's like needing more motivation. I think it's like w what what do I actually do? And so kind of just going through that Dental A Team, we work with hundreds of offices across the nation.   Like we've seen it across the board. I've dealt with it. I'm a business owner. I'm a multi-million dollar owner. I've built practices, I've run dental practices, I've started my own business. I've gone from scratch up. I've sold. I mergers and acquisitions, selling to DSOs, you name it. I've been there, I've done that, I've done it a lot. I've done it in my own personal life. I've built multiple multiple businesses in my own. I've built my own personal brand. The things like let's talk, let's talk as business owners, let's talk about these different things. And so I think one of the biggest things that can help prevent this burnout is to stop being the solution to every problem.   I think that we carry this weight constantly of feeling like, especially founders who have built up from the ground up, feel like they've got to be the solution. You were. That's who you were. You had a GSD to get there. But that doesn't mean that's who you need to continue to be. And I'm I'm guilty of this. I watch Slack and I watch myself. And how often do I just jump in and solve a problem? Or I'm sitting in meetings and I know the answer, but just because I know the answer doesn't mean I need to raise my hand and answer. I need to have a team that can create solutions. I need to have a team that genuinely can do it.   Because I genuinely believe one of the fastest paths is being the answer for everything. team members are like, how to know if this is the case is you got team members who are constantly coming to you. Every decision requires your approval and you are solving problems all day long, even minimal problems. And I know I'm guilty of this in my own company. I watch it and I'm like, why are they asking me for that? Like, how do I give them the permission to not need that? And I need to just let them be dependent. And   Let them be independent and not dependent on me. I think when I see teams very dependent on an owner, including myself, I think people being exhausted. I think the practice that can't function without you, can they handle these decisions without you? But also there you think there's a flip side of can you handle them making mistakes? Can you handle letting go of the control? Can you handle if things break? I remember me and a dear colleague, we were having a very spicy conversation and I was like, what?   You want me like sign off on these things and let our reputation get destroyed? I was very sassy that day. This was just like six months ago. You guys, this was not like young Kiera. This was real life Kiera. And she's like, no, Kiera, we're not like just gonna let our reputation fall apart. She said, but you do need to have things like she sent me a decision matrix and she said, You've got to make decisions like which ones really are going to destroy our business, and which ones do you need to realize are not going to destroy and you need to stop being involved in those.   And to have somebody who's willing to push back on me like that, I was so appreciative of because she's like, Kiera, you're sitting here making decisions about cards and branding. That isn't like we're not gonna destroy it. And she's like, I understand in the past that might not have been the case, but guess what? If something goes wrong, your team's gonna fix it. But you have to let them, you have to trust them. Otherwise, you're forever gonna be held in bottleneck, choke hold burnout. And I think when I hear that, I think about the monkey who.   puts their hand in the hole and they hold on to the nut and they can't get their hand out and they end up getting trapped. And I think about how many business owners with burnout have their hand holding on so tightly to control and wanting everything perfect that they don't let go of it that they end up suffocating themselves and burning out when it didn't necessarily need to be that way. So when I look at like doctors and how much are you answering and office managers, how much are you answering   versus how much is your team able to do? This doctor I was in, we were looking at like etching glass and the team found some cool things on Etsy and the doctor's like, yep, sign off stamp. You guys do it. I know you're gonna do a great job. And it's not something where they're gonna check over their shoulder. No, if it doesn't look good, of course they're gonna say something, but that's such a small decision with such small ramifications versus they're building out the entire construction of the business on the other side. Two very different pieces. Like what is the ramification long term? And so   When you're looking at it, I would say   But number one, when questions come to you, start to ask your team what solutions do you think are we can do for this? And then trust them and let them run with it. Second, for yourself, in meetings, stop being the answer to everything. And then third, just look to see like what's one, two, three, four items that you don't need to give an answer to. Just sit and watch and observe. And I think for me, I almost like have the visual putting my hands, like sitting on my hands and pretend or pretend my hands have glue on them and they're stuck together.   If I couldn't do anything, would my team be able to handle this without me? And I think it's a good test to see how much they're actually able to do. Anytime I go on vacation, I completely check out and I come back and I'm shocked at how good they can do. And I think reminding myself that my team wants to make me proud, that they can answer these things, that I don't need to answer it for them, trusting them they're gonna have better ideas than me. And again, them doing 80% of the work is better than me doing 100% of it. And so I think a great way for you to look at like,   Start asking your team to bring solutions. You can even roll it out that guys, I'm not, I'm not great at this. So please, like everybody, this is my ask. This is my goal for the next six months. Put a bracelet on, whatever you got to do to remind yourself. Like, I literally have a bracelet this year that says no. And that's to remind me, like, no, like, don't do that. Don't say yes to this. Like, let your team flourish. Let go of that control, trust. Because honestly, as a team member, that's the greatest thing your your boss can ever do for you, is to give you the trust and the confidence into.   Let you flourish. That's where people love to work. No one loves to work when they're being micromanaged. And I know I'm guilty of this. So my team listening, I'm sorry. And just know that I'm hyper aware of it, actively participating in letting go of that. And genuinely, I know my team will do far better than I ever. Like they want to make me proud. Our team is such a great team. And your team's the same way. So let them stop stopping the solution to every problem. The second thing to help prevent this burnout that's tactical is.   have boundaries around your time. And this is something I learned early on. I used to work sun up to sundown, seven days a week, on holidays, on weekends. And I think we protect our production time. Like you better believe I ask you for a meeting. Do you how many offices come in? They to coach and they want to solve their problems. But like, but don't do my calls during during production time. I'll talk to you on my drive home. And I'm like, hard pass? No. You're blocking out two hours a month during production time because I know you're gonna be way more proactive. And I'm probably gonna do like   In the morning. You are not running through our meetings and you better be on time to every single meeting. Otherwise, don't sign up for coaching. Like hard and fast. If you can't give me two hours to work on the business, you are not prepared to do coaching because you're not going to implement anything. I'm not talking to you on your drive home. Like, sorry, that's just not where it's going to be. You product your production time, but you don't product your personal time. And both are equally important in my opinion. So, like, are you working through lunch all the time? Are you answering messages at night? Are you h working every single weekend? Do you have this constant mental load that never shuts off on you?   And what I found is you gotta block CEO time where you work on the business during your week. Every time I'm getting stressed out, Marissa and I and Shelbi, we look at the schedule and it's like, Kiera had no time to work on the business. This is why she's stressed out. It's a non-negotiable for me. That is the rock. That is the number one thing that goes in the schedule. Non-negotiable. Then after that, like I have family time. I have a date night. And our team, we made it all like a very conscious effort that like after five, we don't do work. I'm not gonna say it's perfect and I'm not gonna say you have to have that because sometimes working.   Like sometimes I get up at three in the morning and I'm freaking lit and I'm jazzing. It's not depleting for me. That's not burnout. That's working and it's passionate. So it's not a like hard and fast, no one can work. Because sometimes we do want to, but there's there's a conscious shutoff. And so I look at it, I try hard not to send slacks after five o'clock at night. I can schedule those for the next morning. Like shut my email off, take it off of my phone. Don't have Slack and emails on your phone. And really truly be intentional. So   I actually have a box. This came from a friend. she has a really cool box, and that box no longer is being made, otherwise, I'd share it with you. So I bought a like nice $5 box from Target. It's a white box, it's pretty, it sits on my counter, and that's my phone box. So when I'm done with work, so at five o'clock and I have something where I've got to go, like go for a walk with my husband, have something that I'm looking forward to, have a set end time. my phone my watch comes off and my phone goes off and it goes in the box and I leave and I completely disconnect. Now, for a lot of us, I can feel like a heart palpitation.   There's also, I think it's called the brick where you can brick your phone where it turns back into like a brick phone, where honestly there's like calling and messaging, and that's all you have. There's no other apps or anything like that, and you can set it up. for me, I just stick it in the box. And what's really awesome is to be able to disconnect. On the weekends, phone's completely off. Like I'm a princess wife and my husband has his phone and he loves it. And I leave my phone. I leave it plugged in. I don't take it with me.   Because I need a complete disconnect. When I go on vacations, it's a hundred percent offline. I love to go out of the country for that reason because I'm out o offline and I know it's gonna charge me more to to talk to people. Now I know some of you have kiddos and whatnot, but the more you can have blocked family time, blocked CEO time, blocked personal recharge time, and you protect all three of those equally, you will actually feel like like even that, like I feel like this breath of fresh air.   It's and again, it's not about being perfect, it's about being consistent. So you might miss in one week you're gonna have a lot more. But our consultants, they're working for such long hours and we set a quarterly rock that all of us would get out at five o'clock. And every week we actually start asking, like, how is it? And it's shocking. We have seven consultants, and I've been watching all of them start to trend more and more and more to personal life. I've also watched happiness levels increase across our consultant team. I've watched burnout become less and less, and they're still able to take care of their clients, they're still able to work with their   Teams, they're still able to get their things done. We just consolidate. We also started having it where like every Monday people list off how many hours they have available for the week. Like, hey, how many hours do you have? Looking at the schedule, who's got time? And then we're using each other within the department to help each other out. So that way people aren't getting burnt out. We've got people who have hours of time. They're not as busy. You might have an assistant or a hygienist who's not as busy. What do people have on their workload? Can we share the workload with each other? Can we pass out the recare list, the reactivation list? Like, how can we do this to where we all get out at five? We're all committed to it.   Let's all work together as a team. Let's all get our pieces done so that way we're all together. But I think for you, don't answer messages at night. If you knew I'd pay you a million dollars for the next month, okay? Million dollars is on the line. For the next month, you didn't do any work after five. I'll give you till 5.15 because your patients might go. 515 and on the weekends you're not touching work. Would you do it for a month? A million dollars is on the line. And I know every one of you would say yes to me. So if you're gonna say yes to that,   Your life is worth more than a million dollars. Your health is worth more than a million dollars. So you do have a million dollars on the line for you. I'm not paying you. You're paying yourself this. So create those boundaries and dedicate this time. For me, I do have on the weekends. I've got one hour, two hours. I'm gonna block my week on Sundays. Like I do that. That's part of it. I'm okay with that. That's something that I don't take away from my family. Jason knows it. We're good. I've got it. But it allows me to decompress and I'm able to be there present with him. I literally.   Control my calendar. So my calendar doesn't control me. I am actively creating my life and man, I'm not managing my circumstances. I'm creating my life. So for you, I used to think like working harder was better. No, there's a place to work hard and there's a place to play hard and there's a place to sleep hard and there's a place to rest hard. All of those are important. So block your CEO time and guard that. Block your family time and guard that. Block your personal recharge time and block and like honor all three of those equally.   You're doing it with your production, so I know you're capable of doing it. Shut off, be done at five. Go give yourself that freedom. And like even me saying that, I feel this weight come off my shoulders. So I would say schedule those three non-negotiable blocks of time every single week. Treat it like production time, non-negotiable. You will be shocked at the life you will get back and the burnout will go away very quickly. Now, you might be like me, there was one summer I was completely burnt out. I sent I slept 17 hours a day for almost an entire month.   Sometimes we're so far into the burnout phase that we have to give some massive recharge. And like just taking this isn't going to be enough. You might have to schedule in a week off or you just sleep nonstop. But once we get to that point, and I'd say don't wait to that point. Like let's start doing some things proactively now. it is capable, it is doable. And these are some tactical things that I would say put it in now. Let's put some guardrails in and let's protect that very, very, very strongly. And then number three is build a practice that supports your life.   So and we always say that your business should serve your life, not the other way around. And so like I think you should just ask yourself and like it's okay, pull out the crayons, like let's get the canvas back out. What do you want your life to look like? And we do this with our doctors when they start with us, like how many days do you want to work? What kind of a schedule do you want? What role do you want long term, like in one year, three year, 10 year? And then let's put into place and start making your practice work for you. So if you tell me I only want three days, fantastic, let's work for it.   What is our bam? What's our production? Let's build this just a math equation. And I love because math always maths. So let's just build it. What does it need to look like? And what I've watched is when people are living their dream life when they're having it. Now, ego plays. For me, I keep saying, like, I only want to work three days. But my ego is so strong and she really wants to be just important. So I need something to fill that time that's equally as important. I have Jace and I now have a side gig that we do on Fridays together. And it makes it to where like I have a set thing that   full like fuels me, fuels my spouse. and we do it on Fridays together. And so I do. I've got I've got other CEO responsibilities that are not Dental A Team specific. But even if I didn't have something else, that's okay as a CEO. You're allowed to to have your business, serve your life. You do not need to work constantly. You are allowed to have whatever life you want. And so let's let's put those systems into place. Let's have leaders in place that are freaking thriving on it and they want to do this. Let's like make our decisions based on vision, not on guilt.   Like that's what we're gonna do. And so you can reduce your clinical days. We can hire people for that. me and a doctor were working and we just created this like awesome two year vision. I'm so pumped. I was like, okay, in two years, like let's build this. Like, what's your tenure? And I was like, sweet, let's build it into a two year. To be able to help people see it. Sometimes we can't see that. Sometimes we don't think we're worthy of it. Sometimes we I don't know. I think we just get in a rut and robotic and then we just forget that, like, no, no, no, we're the creators of our lives, not the managers of them. You get to create this.   You didn't build yourself a prison. You build yourself freedom. But it depends on which route you're gonna go and if you're actually gonna live it. So you've got to have your practice supporting your life, not the other way around. So I want you to look down, like what your, you can write down what your ideal work looks like, what it's gonna look like in one year, three years, ten years, and then like let's just work backwards. Some of you get so stuck and you're like, I don't know, how do I get my team bought into it? Your team wants you to thrive.   Your ego wants you to just survive. Like it's usually ego that keeps us there. It's not really our team. It's not all those excuses we tell ourselves. It's not that mental load that we're carrying constantly. That mental load is heavy. It's a constant guilt running and guilt's not serving. It's just keeping you stuck. So if you've been feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, trapped, or even none of those, like I just want you to know you're not alone. Let's put into place these safeguards. Let's let's have this where number one, we're going to stop being the solution to every problem. Number two,   We're gonna create those boundaries around our personal time and we're gonna block them like we do our production time. We're gonna honor them, we're gonna value them. It's our CEO time, our family time, and our personal recharge time. Block those. And then we're gonna build a practice that truly supports our life. And we're gonna be so committed and know that we deserve every ounce of this. And we're we are so committed that we're gonna get it. Non-negotiable. Pretend a million dollars, billion dollars, whatever you want, your dream car, your dream vacation, whatever it is, it's on the line. If you'll just show up for yourself. I think so often burnout comes because we're not willing to.   Reduce the load. I think a lot of it is self-induced, and then I think a lot of it is just habit. We've been doing it for so long that we don't know a different path. But I will say that other path is always there. The HOV lane is always open. Let's get over into that HOV lane. Let's start doing things easier. You deserve it. You are a billion dollar asset. Treat yourself like it. You guys have this. You don't have to work harder. You just need to have it be a like we've had one formula and it's been running. There's nothing wrong with it. But if we want a different life, there's another formula that we can start running, and I'd encourage you to do so.   So that's what we do. We help you build leadership teams. We help you build your vision. We help get your team bought into that vision. We could give you the permission to shut off at five. We tell you, like, stop, grab a PA, like a personal assistant, hire this person. Like these things you don't have to do. You're welcome to keep doing it. There's no force on our side. There's no judgment on our side. There's just love and unconditional love to make sure you are taken care of. So reach out. I'd love to help you. You can grow your business and you don't have to sacrifice your life. It's not one or the other. It can be an and. And I hope you choose that. And I hope you know you're worthy of it. I hope you know you're worth it.   And I hope you know that it is possible. So come be a part of it. There's so many of our doctors that live their best lives. I got one doctor who's a million-dollar practice working three days a week, wants nothing more than that, and is so freaking happy and is an incredible leader. I have another doctor. They work four days a week. They got a three and a half million dollar practice. Incredible, incredible. They could build another location. They don't want to. We got it set up for their kids, their life. They're on vacation. They're able to serve and get back to their community. Whatever your life is, it's doable for you. I've got others that have like five locations and they're so happy with it.   Whatever your life is, it's doable. So let's make it, let's create it, let's not manage it. You guys, I'm proud of you. I'm proud of the life you're living. Reach out, Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. And as always, thanks for listening. I'll catch you next time on the Dental A Team podcast.  

A wise marriage reflects God's covenant love through exclusive intimacy, grace, and forgiveness. Proverbs 18:22, 5:15-19, 31:10-11, Gen 2, 1 Cor 7:1-5, Heb 13:5

If your idea of a productive morning includes hiding whiskey in your shoes, arguing with Oprah, and learning more about kidney stones than any human ever wanted to know, congratulations—you've found today's daily comedy show.The gang kicks things off by reacting to Fireball's newest invention: high-top sneakers with hidden compartments designed to smuggle booze into concerts. Is it brilliant? Is it incredibly stupid? Can both be true? Absolutely. The conversation quickly spirals into stories about sneaking drinks into venues, golf-course bathroom etiquette, and why "shoe whiskey" should never become part of the English language.Then things take an unexpectedly painful turn as Bret Michaels undergoes emergency kidney stone surgery, which leads Moon to share some of the most unforgettable—and honestly horrifying—kidney stone stories ever told on this show. Hospital visits, tour disasters, screaming in public bathrooms... somehow everyone survives, but barely.Celebrity news brings plenty of chaos, too. Tommy Lee reveals one of Motley Crue's most unbelievable drug stories, Bon Jovi struggles through a concert after vocal issues, Korn's Jonathan Davis gets married, Johnny Depp surprises Comic-Con fans, and Jason Alexander makes headlines by apologizing for a decades-old comedy sketch. The crew also debates whether Johnny Depp will always be Captain Jack Sparrow, Edward Scissorhands, or something completely different depending on who you ask.Then Oprah enters the conversation with a comment that lights the fuse on one of the episode's biggest discussions. Should young people sacrifice everything to build a career, or should work-life balance begin immediately? Everyone has an opinion, nobody completely agrees, and somehow the debate turns into one of the most thoughtful conversations of the morning without losing the sarcasm that keeps everything fun.Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without plenty of side quests. There are discussions about Olive Garden Pasta Pass failures, Hollywood Walk of Fame stars, celebrity birthdays, awkward David Letterman moments, the Kardashians, concert ticket disasters, and enough random tangents to make your GPS give up entirely.Whether you're here for celebrity gossip, weird news, hilarious fails, pop culture commentary, or simply because you enjoy hearing a group of friends derail every conversation imaginable, today's daily comedy show delivers exactly the kind of organized chaos you've come to expect.Thanks for making us part of your day. If you laughed, learned something completely unnecessary, or now have an irrational fear of kidney stones, we'd call that a successful episode.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Wisdom calls us to honor God first with our wealth, choose contentment over materialism, and live generously. Proverbs 3:9-10, 11:24-25, 15:16, 19:17, 23:4-5, 30:8-9, Ps 24:1, Mal 3:8-10, Matt 6:21, 24, 6:26, 19:16-22, Eccl 5:10, 1 Tim. 6:6-10, 2 Cor. 8:7-9 

Sexual immorality promises pleasure but leads to destruction. Wisdom calls us to pursue purity and honor God's design. Proverbs 7, 4:23, 1 Thess 4:3-4, 1 Cor 6:9-11, 18-20, 1 Kings 11:11

Wisdom in Practice | A Generous Life Proverbs 11:24–25 | 1 Kings 17:7–16 What if generosity isn't about losing something—but about discovering the life God designed us to live? Our world tells us that security comes through accumulating, protecting, and preserving what we have. But the wisdom of Proverbs points us toward a very different economy—one where those who refresh others are themselves refreshed. In this message from our Wisdom in Practice series, we explore the remarkable story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath, discovering that generosity isn't first about money, but about trusting the God who provides. Together we'll discover: * God invites us to live by His economy, not the world's. * Generosity begins with trusting the God who provides. * We were created to both refresh others and be refreshed ourselves. Whether it's our time, relationships, abilities, finances, or hospitality, every resource we've received is an opportunity to participate in God's generous kingdom.

From social media and comparison to dating, body image, friendships, anxiety, and the pressure to have life all figured out, it can feel overwhelming to know who you are and where your worth comes from. Allie shares honest encouragement and practical, faith-filled advice for navigating some of the biggest challenges teen girls and young women face. Together, Emma and Allie talk about building your identity in Christ rather than in others' opinions, finding confidence without chasing perfection, creating healthy relationships, setting boundaries with social media, and discovering the purpose God has for your life.

Proverbs 3:5-7, 16:1-3, 11:14, 15:22, 16:9, 20:18, James 1:5

Self-control is the ability provided by the Holy Spirit to produce His fruit in our lives. Proverbs 25:28, 16:32, 10:19, Titus 2:11-12, Galatians 5:22-23. 

Most young women are told that success, perfection, and social validation define worth. Emma Valentine's story challenges that belief. At just 23, she has faced public disappointment, criticism, and failure while performing as a finalist on The Voice only to discover that true identity is not found in achievements or appearances, but in God's unshakable love. In this heartfelt episode, Emma shares how a painful moment on national TV became the catalyst for profound spiritual growth. Through failure and public scrutiny, she learned that God's love is the only reliable source of validation and that living for an audience of One brings freedom from comparison and self-obsession. Together, we explore how to embrace your God-given worth, stay rooted in Scripture, and guard your heart in a culture obsessed with perfection. Emma offers practical wisdom for navigating setbacks, finding purpose, and experiencing true joy. This episode is especially meaningful for teen girls and young women wrestling with questions of identity, worth, or confidence. Emma's story is a powerful reminder that failure does not define us—God's love does. Emma Valentine is a singer, songwriter, and storyteller from Santa Cruz, California. Through her music and testimony, she shares hope, authenticity, and the love of her Creator. Join us for an inspiring conversation about faith, purpose, and the freedom that comes from living for God's glory rather than the world's applause.

A wise home is built on heavenly wisdom, not earthly wisdom. Proverbs 24:3-4, 20:7, 14:26, 15:20, 20:20, James 3:13-18

Humility makes teachability possible. Maturity is the result of teachability. Lack of humility is the lid on maturity. Proverbs 12:1, 15-16. 

The wise person works diligently and faithfully, knowing that their work ultimately honors God. Text - Genesis 2-3, Proverbs 24:30-34, 6:6-11, 13:4, 26:14-15, 21:25-26, 28:19, 2 Thessalonians 3:10-12, 1 Timothy 5:8, Colossians 3:24-25, Matthew 25

Friends determine the quality and direction of your life. Proverbs 13:20, 17:17, 27:17, 27:6, 18:1, 18:24, 1 Cor. 15:33, John 15:12-15.

“Boy… you're the greatest, so act accordingly.”Those words from Pops weren't just encouragement… they were permission.In this episode of The Vibe Podcast, Kelly Cardenas dives deep into the power of identity, self-worth, discipline, focus, and the dangerous distractions that keep people from stepping into the life they were created for. So many people are sitting on acres of diamonds while waiting for permission that has already been given.The truth? One decision can shift everything.Drawing wisdom from Proverbs 15, Kelly breaks down how wisdom speaks life, why paying attention is one of the greatest investments you can make, and how comparison quietly steals joy, purpose, and momentum. This episode is a masterclass on personal growth, mindset transformation, emotional intelligence, faith, leadership, and becoming the person you were meant to be.If you've ever struggled with self-doubt, fear, distraction, lack of confidence, or feeling stuck… this conversation will hit home.This episode will challenge you to:• Work your land instead of watching someone else's• Stop renting your greatness• Build discipline over distraction• Understand that your hands expose your heart• Seek truth, wisdom, and purpose daily• Speak life over yourself and others• Act according to the greatness already inside of youTrending topics covered in this episode:Personal Development, Motivation, Leadership, Mindset, Self Improvement, Emotional Intelligence, Mental Toughness, Entrepreneurship, Faith, Discipline, Focus, Purpose, Confidence, Identity, Growth Mindset, Positive Thinking, Success Habits, Life Wisdom, Proverbs, Spiritual Growth, Motivation Podcast, Inspirational Podcast, Business Leadership, High Performance Habits, Self Worth, Authentic Leadership“Comparison is the thief of joy.”“Discipline costs less than foolishness.”“Wisdom speaks life.”Pops said it best:“Boy… you're the greatest, so act accordingly.”And maybe today…you finally believe it.

In this deeply emotional Mother's Day episode, Suzanne B. O'Brien RN shares one of the most sacred callings many of us will ever experience: walking our mothers home at the end of life. As daughters, mothers, caregivers, nurses, and women in community, we are so often the ones called forward to care for those we love through aging, illness, and the final transition. Yet most families today are trying to navigate end-of-life care without the knowledge, preparation, or support that once was naturally handed down from grandmother to grandchild. And the result is heartbreaking. Families are overwhelmed. Terrified. Exhausted. Grieving while caregiving. Trying to do the most important work of their lives without the skills or understanding to feel grounded and empowered. In this episode, Suzanne speaks openly about: The truth behind the current hospice model Why families provide 98% of the hands-on care, even with hospice involved How hospice shifted after becoming a Medicare benefit Why most people enter hospice very late, often already in crisis The devastating impact fear of death has on quality of life, caregiving, grief, and bereavement Why presence and time are the greatest medicines we have at the end of life The sacred role of “mothering our mothers” as they age and transition across the veil How learning end-of-life skills transforms fear into peace, empowerment, grounded presence, and love Suzanne also shares a heartfelt call for women everywhere to rise into a new era of compassionate caregiving and conscious community support — bringing back the sacred human wisdom that once guided families through life, death, grief, and love. Because this moment is asking us to remember: Community takes care of community. And when we learn how to show up for one another with presence, compassion, and practical skills, everything changes. This is the heart of Doulagivers Institute: To return end-of-life education and caregiving skills back to the hands and hearts of families. The free Doulagivers Level 1 End-of-Life Doula Family Caregiver Training is now available globally in 15 languages and has helped transform the lives of hundreds of thousands of people around the world. This free 90-minute live training includes: A downloadable workbook Practical end-of-life caregiving education Understanding the three phases of end of life Emotional, spiritual, and physical comfort measures Guidance for families and caregivers A new way of approaching life and death with peace instead of fear And the impact has been profound. What Participants Are Saying “My sweet sister passed away last night after fighting Multiple Myeloma for almost five years. Because of your EOLD training I was able to be fully present with no fear. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.” — Cathy S. “I am a retired nurse with an extensive background in oncology, critical and palliative care. That was the BEST 90 minutes of clear comprehensive education on end-of-life care I have ever heard. Excellent!” — Jan S. “The Doulagivers Level 1 Training was life changing for me! Had the BEST night of sleep in over 30 years!” — Ruth Moss “I was drawn to the Doulagivers Level 1 Training in search of help with grief. I had tried grief counseling, therapists, and workshops, but nothing helped. This training changed everything for me. I can now see how deeply connected end-of-life education is to healing grief and loss. I feel very connected here.” — Kristen O. “When my son died, I felt broken when he kept saying he wanted to go home. I replied that he was home. I get it now. He was telling his momma he was ready to go. Thank you.” — Theresa H. “Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I feel healed from my parents' death issues that I have carried for over 40 years. Your compassion comes through every word.” — Viv H. This training is more than education. It is healing. It is empowerment. It is remembering who we are for one another.

Woehoe!! De 300ste aflevering. Mijn hemeltje wat een mijlpaal. Zeker iets om even bij stil te staan en te vieren. Met heerlijk zelf gebakken carrotcake!In deze aflevering deel ik een recente ontdekking van de podcast 'Life Wisdom' van Chen Li, die dieper ingaat op de leer van het taoïsme en de Tao Te Ching. Zijn woorden in die podcast geven mij een gevoel van herkenning en rust, omdat ze precies omschrijven hoe ik mezelf vaak voel.Het centrale thema van de aflevering is 'solitude' (bewust gekozen alleen zijn). Het belangrijke verschil tussen solitude – wat positief is en ruimte biedt voor rust, creativiteit en reflectie – en eenzaamheid (loneliness), wat vaak als pijnlijk wordt ervaren. Juist in een drukke maatschappij en als 'manager van het gezin' is het essentieel om die momenten voor jezelf te creëren, bijvoorbeeld door 's ochtends vroeg een uur eerder op te staan.Daarnaast bespreek ik ook de balans tussen geven en nemen, oftewel het Yin-Yang evenwicht. Zorg goed voor jezelf en besteed je kostbare tijd en energie niet alleen maar aan anderen door te pleasen. Sinds mijn persoonlijke 'shift' rond 2020 ben ik meer mijn hart gaan volgen en streef ik naar een gelukkig leven, iets wat ik iedereen toewens.Check hier de blog van Life Wisdomhttps://wordsoftaoism.com/Check hier de podcast van Life Wisdomhttps://wordsoftaoism.com/podcast#gelukzoeker #solitude #tao #lifewisdom #chenli

What if your ego is quietly costing you the very things you say you want—better numbers, deeper relationships, more freedom, and more fun on the golf course? In this conversation, former all-time leading salesperson turned coach, author, and podcast host Casey Jacox joins me to unpack how humility, curiosity, and relationship-driven leadership can help you win in business, golf, and fatherhood—without burning yourself (or everyone around you) out.

In this episode, you'll learn: How to chase big goals without tying your self-worth to your numbers or handicap Why humility and relationships are your real competitive advantage in sales, business, and golf The difference between fear-driven and curiosity-driven behavior—and how to shift into curiosity Simple questions you can ask clients, teams, and yourself to uncover blind spots and ego traps How to "bench your ego" for 30 days and the measurable changes that will show up in your life and game The hidden pressure many dads carry—and how to protect presence with your kids without tanking your career Practical ways to use gratitude, curiosity, and "even though…" reframes to bounce back faster after setbacks on and off the course Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.P.S.

Relationships are not transactions—treat them like a bank account and make consistent deposits before you ever ask for a withdrawal. Fear-driven behavior protects the ego; curiosity-driven behavior unlocks growth and deeper connection. The right questions at the right time are more powerful than the perfect pitch, speech, or pep talk. Benching your ego leads to better leadership, less stress, stronger teams, and more enjoyment on the golf course. Being a present dad often requires brave decisions about boundaries, time, and saying "no" to good opportunities. Golf is a mirror: how you respond to bad shots, slumps, and frustration reveals how you handle pressure everywhere else. Key Quotes: "When you're great, other people will tell you. If you have to tell everyone how good you are, you're probably not that good." "People who treat relationships like transactions miss the bigger picture—you get back what you consistently deposit." "Fear-driven people are afraid to ask for help. Curiosity-driven people say, 'I don't know' and then do something about it." "It's not what you say that closes the deal or builds trust. It's what you ask." "The mind is the best tool in your golf bag—and only you have access to it." "Do you want to be right, or do you want to get what you want?" "I'm never going to regret choosing time with my kids over another business opportunity."

The simplest moments can change your direction. We begin with a joy practice—fur-baby cuddles, playful journaling, and creative micro-steps—that gently trains attention and makes room for what matters. From that grounded place, we open an Akashic Records message for mid-December and explore what it means to “come around the bend” into a wider view: sudden clarity, fewer distractions, and the confidence to take the next right step without forcing a six-month plan.I share real-time creative progress on an Oracle deck and how a 15–20 minute commitment can turn a vague intention into a finished page, a clarified decision, or a calmer nervous system. We unpack a simple two-part journal prompt—What do I most want to accomplish right now? What do I need to do to accomplish that?—and show how to use it for relationships, spirituality, and work. Along the way, the Nine of Earth (reversed) from The Good Tarot offers an inner invitation: strengthen self-reliance, honor your resources, and place the final stone in your foundation through steady, kind discipline.If you're feeling stuck at a crossroads, this conversation offers practical spiritual tools, heart-centered psychology, and creative rituals that return you to yourself. Follow the lit path, protect new space as distractions fade, and let small actions build real momentum. If this resonates, subscribe, share with a friend who needs clarity, and leave a review to help more seekers find the show.

Welcome to E430 Inner Voice, where Dr. Foojan sits down for a heartfelt and inspiring conversation with Dr. Laura Gabayan—a world-renowned physician, researcher, and Psychology Today contributor. In this powerful episode, Dr. Laura shares the insights behind her groundbreaking Wisdom Research Project, where she interviewed 60 wise adults across North America to uncover the 8 scientific elements of wisdom. These discoveries are featured in her transformative book and journal, Common Wisdom: 8 Scientific Elements of a Meaningful Life and the Common Wisdom Journal. Learn more and take the Wisdom IQ Test at lauragabayan.com. ⭐ Dr. Laura Gabayan's Journey into Wisdom Science Dr. Laura, an emergency medicine physician and respected researcher, opens up about her personal journey from academic medicine to becoming a pioneering voice in wisdom science. She speaks candidly about her struggle with chronic Lyme disease and the limitations she encountered within Western medicine—challenges that ultimately inspired her to explore deeper truths about meaning, resilience, and human experience. This quest led her to interview 60 wise adults and publish her influential book, Common Wisdom: 8 Scientific Elements of the Meaningful Life. ⭐ Elements of Wisdom Research Dr. Laura breaks down the eight core elements of wisdom—highlighting essential qualities such as resilience, kindness, and positivity. Through vulnerable personal stories of losing her home, battling chronic illness, and rebuilding her life, she illustrates how resilience strengthens our emotional core. Together, Dr. Laura and Dr. Foojan explore the transformative power of self-kindness, compassion for others, and the ability to maintain positivity in the face of adversity. These interconnected wisdom elements help individuals navigate challenges with clarity, courage, and hope. ⭐ Understanding Spirituality Beyond Religiosity Dr. Laura offers meaningful insights into spirituality, describing it as a deeply personal experience that goes beyond traditional religiosity. Coming from a scientific background, writing about spirituality challenged her—but ultimately helped her understand its role in connection, healing, intuition, and making sense of experiences that science cannot fully explain. Dr. Foojan highlights how spirituality aligns with curiosity, openness, and inner exploration, allowing us to expand our awareness and sense of meaning. ⭐ Foundations of Growth and Harmony This insightful conversation also explores curiosity, humility, tolerance, and creativity as essential foundations of personal growth and social harmony. Dr. Laura and Dr. Foojan discuss how humility fosters deeper connection, how tolerance helps us overcome biases, and how creativity exists in every person—even if expressed in different ways. They envision a world where diversity is not merely tolerated but honored and celebrated with genuine appreciation. ⭐ Common Wisdom Journal Overview Dr. Laura introduces the Common Wisdom Journal, designed to guide readers through moral reflection questions and chapter summaries that enhance understanding of each wisdom element. While the journal offers prompts and structure, the book provides deeper scientific exploration of the eight elements that shape a meaningful life. Dr. Laura encourages viewers to take her Wisdom IQ Test at lauragabayan.com before diving into the journal or book to better understand their personal strengths and areas for growth.

There are a small number of people who leave a lifelong impact on who you become. The individual I'm interviewing on this episode, Jonathan Ord, is one of those humans for me.

Send us a textHave you ever questioned whether death is truly inevitable? In this illuminating episode, we explore the radical difference between conventional non-dual teachings that accept death as "part of life" and the deeper understanding that allows us to collapse time and transcend the entire illusion.I share a powerful encounter at a satsang where I felt compelled to challenge a spiritual teacher who was telling her students that life and death are intrinsically connected. This sparked a profound realization: most spiritual teachings, even those claiming to be non-dual, still implicitly worship death by treating it as unavoidable. But what if life has no opposite? What if death is merely a denial of truth rather than an intrinsic part of reality?Through personal stories of heartbreak and transformation, I reveal how our painful experiences create cracks where light enters—opportunities to recognize how we're creating our own suffering through our beliefs. I describe my recent discovery of the "sacred heart" meditation that offers satisfaction far deeper than anything external in the world could provide. This internal communion with Spirit becomes available precisely when we stop projecting specialness onto others and release our attachment to worldly satisfactions.The episode weaves together insights about how we manifest relationships specifically to show us what we need to see, how progress on our spiritual journey is saved between lifetimes, and why inviting Spirit to look with us at our most difficult thoughts transforms our perception. Whether you're new to spiritual concepts or a seasoned seeker, you'll find valuable guidance for using every experience to strengthen your recognition that separation never happened.Ready to go beyond conventional spiritual comfort and discover what it means to truly collapse time? Join me in this wisdom dialogue that points to eternal truth beyond all appearances.Support the show

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of the Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim continues his deep dive into life wisdom from his mentor and real-life sorcerer, Don Javier. Building on part one, Jim shares four additional transformative insights—simple yet powerful truths to help you rise above the chaos of the external world and reclaim your inner authority.  This episode touches on how global events shape our thoughts, why all personal power is internal, how expansion dismantles worry, and why chasing approval robs us of self-worth. If you've ever felt powerless in the face of current events or unsure of your value, these teachings will give you a grounded and empowering perspective.  Tune in for practical wisdom you can implement today—and walk away with a clear sense of how to live from expansion, not fear.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Are You Letting the World Control You? (02:00) Jim breaks down how external events—like disasters, war, or politics—can hijack your inner peace, and why it's essential to reclaim your power.  All Power Is Internal (06:16) Your life isn't happening to you—it's happening through you. Jim explores why success and failure begin inside, not in outside circumstances.  Expansion Helps You Let Go of Worry (12:33) Worry is contraction. Expansion is power. Learn how trusting the universe and growing spiritually neutralizes anxiety.  Seeking Approval Is a Trap (18:17) When you base your self-worth on others' opinions, you lose touch with your inherent value. Jim explains how to shift back into self-sourced confidence.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Which of these four teachings resonated most with you? Whether it's letting go of worry, reclaiming your internal power, or stepping away from external validation—choose one and commit to it. The world needs people who live from soul, not reaction. When you choose expansion over contraction, you become the grounded presence others can look to in uncertain times. Start there, and your transformation begins now.  Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Send us a text"You can never be happy and find peace with more. You can also never be happy and find peace with less. You can only be happy and find peace with what you have – and that can only happen right here, right now."These profound words from Dr. Marshall Goldsmith encapsulate the wisdom shared in this extraordinary conversation. From the son of a gas station owner in rural Kentucky to becoming the world's top executive coach, Marshall's journey exemplifies how an ordinary person can achieve extraordinary things while maintaining humility and purpose.Marshall takes us through pivotal moments that shaped his philosophy – from overcoming the limiting belief that he had "no mechanical aptitude," to witnessing heartbreaking poverty in Africa during a famine, to learning servant leadership from the remarkable Frances Hesselbein. His stories aren't just entertaining; they're transformative lessons about recognizing our self-imposed limitations and finding meaning in service to others.What stands out most is how Marshall has distilled decades of coaching the world's top executives into actionable wisdom anyone can apply. His six daily questions practice (starting with "Did I do my best to...") offers a simple but powerful framework for meaningful change. And his admission that even he – the creator of this method – needs someone to hold him accountable speaks volumes about both human nature and the importance of structured support systems.Throughout our conversation, Marshall exemplifies the rare combination of brilliant insight delivered with genuine warmth. Whether discussing Buddhist philosophy, the psychology of leadership, or the power of authentic gratitude, he communicates complex ideas with remarkable clarity and heart. His mission statement has simplified with age: "I want to help you, a real human being, have a little better life."Ready to transform your approach to leadership, relationships, and personal fulfillment?

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of the Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim shares four powerful life principles passed down from his brother-in-law and mentor, Don Xavier, a real-life sorcerer. These wisdom nuggets, gathered from thousands of pages of notes, are meant to be quick, digestible insights that you can apply immediately for deep inner transformation. This is part one of a two-part series that goes straight to the heart of what it means to live as soul—not as ego, identity, or limitation.  From understanding how we define ourselves through our limitations, to healing the body through meditation and divine connection, Jim offers a rare glimpse into the energetic teachings that have shaped his own journey. These lessons aren't just philosophical—they're deeply practical for anyone wanting to live with greater health, clarity, and spiritual power.  Whether you're feeling stuck in old patterns or ready to step into your fullest potential, this episode will inspire you to unplug from self-sabotaging thoughts, reframe your health from the inside out, and awaken your connection to Source. Listen in and choose which of these four teachings you're ready to master now.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Know Yourself by Your Limitations (03:00) We often define ourselves more easily by our limitations than our potential—this awareness can shift everything.  Unplug From Yourself (08:50) Jim shares Don Xavier's wisdom about silencing the analytical mind and learning how to stop exhausting yourself with overthinking.  Your Body Can Handle Anything When It's at 100% (14:45) From clean food to mental clarity, a fully functioning body-mind system can endure even nature's harshest challenges.  Connect to the Divine, and Healing Happens Naturally (25:30) Jim explains why meditation and divine communion are more powerful than any external healing technique.  Choose Your Focus: Limitation or Liberation (28:45) Jim invites you to pick one of the four teachings and master it—because where your attention goes, transformation follows.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You don't need dozens of spiritual tools to shift your life—just deep commitment to a single truth. Maybe it's time to stop identifying with your limitations. Or to truly let go of the inner chatter that holds you back. Perhaps your next leap is treating your body as sacred or trusting in the healing power of divine connection. Wherever you are, choose one of the four teachings Jim shares and make it your own. That choice—made again and again—will transform your life from the inside out.  Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

In the kickoff message of the Wisdom for Dummies series, Pastor Bronson Stewart unpacks the key difference between wisdom and knowledge. While knowledge is about information and facts, wisdom is about how we live—making decisions that reflect God's heart and truth. Pastor Bronson emphasizes that true wisdom doesn't come from books or intellect, but from a relationship with God. He explores how the Bible invites us to seek wisdom like treasure, reminding us that God generously gives it to those who ask. This message challenges us to pursue wisdom that transforms our lives, not just knowledge that fills our minds.

Marko Petrovic shared profound life wisdom centered on freeing oneself. The discussion explored happiness as an internal state, liberation through shedding limiting beliefs, the importance of connecting with ancestors for strength and guidance, and what the ancestors might say about contemporary society.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!In this special episode of The Life Wisdom Project Jerry L. Martin is joined by acclaimed horror author, essayist, and religious thinker Matt Cardin for a profound exploration of divine duality, Zoroastrian cosmology, and the moral landscape of good and evil.Together, they dive into God's revelations to the prophet Zoroaster as recounted in God: An Autobiography, As Told to a Philosopher, unpacking a worldview where life is not a passive unfolding — but an active battlefield between light and darkness, truth and illusion. Through the lens of Zoroastrianism and Manichaean thought, the conversation traces how spiritual maturity demands we choose a side — not in tribal allegiance, but in moral clarity and existential responsibility.Matt Cardin brings his unique background at the crossroads of religion, metaphysical horror, and philosophical inquiry to the fore. The episode confronts some of the most challenging spiritual insights from the book, including:“Most spiritually attuned people are not truth seekers.”“To look evil in the face is a spiritual act.”“My aspects have a life of their own and go wayward.”These statements form the foundation for a dialogue about spiritual integration, shadow work, divine self-awareness, and the lived tension between peace and calamity — as illustrated in both Zoroaster's vision and Isaiah 45, where God declares, “I form the light and create darkness.”The episode also explores how horror writing, when used with spiritual intent, can serve as a radical form of not turning away — of confronting the hidden, the repressed, the divine and monstrous within. Cardin's reflections on Jung, Freud, and the archetypal struggle for integration are especially resonant for seekers navigating complexity in both self and cosmos.Whether you're drawn to Zoroastrian theology, psychological integration, or the spiritual function of horror literature, this conversation invites you to experience divine reality with open eyes — and a willingness to face the truth, however unsettling it may be.Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:From God To Jerry To You- a brand-new series calling for the attention of spiritual seekers everywhere, featuring breakthroughs, pathways, and illuminations.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God- sit in on a dialogue between philosophers about God and the questions we all have. What's On Our Mind- Connect the dots with Jerry and Scott over the most recent series episodes. What's On Your Mind- What are readers and listeners saying?
