It always seems, sad as it is, that we humans tend to not only learn lessons from others more so when they are gone, but humans have a sad track record, that looking back throughout history - we don't learn these lessons too well. Now of course this does not mean every single human being throughout history - tons of great people for sure that know and live these lessons. One of the best was Jane Goodall (look her up) and here is a quote from her that really hits home now that she just recently passed. She reminded us that “You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.”  A conversation that I had with my buddy Coach Dave Ruekert recently, reminded me about the choices we have both made to help others through teaching and coaching. Really got me thinking about how much I need to stay on the journey I'm on and maybe look for different ways of continuing to connect to students and teachers along with athletes and coaches. We all have the ability to make “the world” better, right where we are at. The world needs us to do that for sure.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

You're crushing it at work or uni, but can't stop looking at what you shouldn't when you're alone. You give charity publicly but backbite privately. You know the names of all the Premier League players, but "not much" about the scholars of Ahlus Sunnah. Your parents think you're the perfect Muslim child while you're drowning in guilt cycles you can't break. Religious enough to feel shame, worldly enough to keep sinning. Don't you think it's time to change? Watch Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan break down this forgotten treatise by Ibn Taymiyyah's student Ibn al-Habbal - battle-tested advice from someone who survived real consequences. He explains how to protect your heart and your time, the only two things that actually matter. How to stop trying to please everyone and focus on pleasing Allah alone. The brutal reminder: You're ageing but your sins aren't decreasing. Every breath is documented. You'll answer for every moment you had health, free time, and youth. What's your response going to be? Learn what's destroying Muslims today that's worse than private sins - the same extremism that ruined past nations. Going overboard with righteous people, and drifting towards shirk by asking dead saints for help instead of making dua directly to Allah.

I came across a couple of great posts that really got me thinking about something we all do and the importance of realizing that there is a ton to learn from this event.  What I found from Seek Wiser (@SeekWiser_) was a great reminder as to what failure is all about. Here it is: “F = Fall, A = Acknowledge, I = Investigate, L = Learn, U = Understand, R = Realign and the E = Evolve”. Some great reminders for us to always connect with, since we all have Failure as part of our everyday lives! The second thing that I remembered to share came up as I was recording this episode. It came from Psyche Wizard (@PsycheWizard) where this was posted for us to remember too: “Be loyal to your future, not your past.” Powerful words to connect with learning from failure in our lives.  This was truthfully, a great start to my day that I needed for sure. Hope (as always) that this helps you too.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

I came across a powerful post from Mindful Maven (@mindfulmaven_) where this African Proverb was shared: “No matter how sharp your teeth are, you can't bite water.  Meaning - Each problem comes with its own solution. Take time to understand the nature of the situation before taking action. Powerful thoughts here that I never really thought about before. Chewing water (yes I tried it), gets you nowhere. Chewing water should not be a problem because we don't need to do it. I do appreciate the connection to problems that have their own unique solutions AND I know for sure that I don't want to cause a ton of problems for myself, since the world & other people seem to do enough of that for all of us.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Found this post that is connected to The Ryder Cup (currently going on at the time of this recording - the USA team has a lot of work to do to get closer to the European team.)  But this clip came from DAILY HOVI (@dailyhovi) - where Viktor Hovland says about his plans to  just laugh off comments from the crowd while playing the match in New York City (notorious for the jeering of visiting opponents) because they can't be worse than his own thoughts that he has going on in his head. This clip from Viktor is so powerful as it simply is not just about golf, but more importantly about life. Side note: Europe did win the Ryder Cup.

What would make a 20-year-old newlywed couple - with no business experience and no money - decide to buy a dive shop instead of getting jobs at one? In this episode of Unapologetically Me, Heather Blankenship sits down with Kelsey Dickinson, a fearless serial entrepreneur whose journey is anything but ordinary. Kelsey shares how she and her husband bought their first business just six months into marriage, built systems to grow and sell companies, and why the hardest year of their lives pushed them to walk away from it all. That decision led to a new chapter of freedom: homeschooling their kids, traveling the world, living in Kenya, and creating a life on their own terms. Today, Kelsey is passionate about helping the next generation build resilience and entrepreneurial skills through her company, CEO Kid. This is a conversation about faith, bold choices, and designing a life unapologetically - even when the path looks nothing like what others expect. If you've ever dreamed of doing something unconventional, this episode will show you that with creativity, courage, and conviction, anything is possible.

Retirement usually comes to us in our sixties and it is at that same age that our parents are moving into their eighties. It is also at this time that our children are moving into their thirties and forties - the time for splitting up - divorce. There are very likely grandchildren that may need some attention from grandparents.

Join Pastor Jim for Part 2 of the transformative "Mentor" series, where he delivers powerful truths about faithfulness, character development, and the path to promotion in God's kingdom. Through compelling personal stories—from cleaning church bathrooms and prison ministry to handling offense early in his ministry—Pastor Jim illustrates how God qualifies us for greater assignments by testing our faithfulness in small things. With a blend of humor, transparency, and biblical wisdom, this message will challenge you to become a "learn-it-all" instead of a "know-it-all," emphasizing that the currency for promotion is faithfulness, not giftedness. Whether you're seeking practical guidance on being mentored, looking for encouragement in your current season of service, or need a reminder about the importance of local church community, this message will inspire you to embrace God's character-building process with joy and excellence.

RICHARD ASHWORTH  is internationally recognized for his groundbreaking transformational work with the Ba Zi or Four Pillars of Destiny, otherwise misleadingly known as the Chinese Horoscope. We discuss the results of my personal Ba Zi reading and how it applies to my life past and present. It was an eye-opening and inspiring personal experience which led to us talking about spirituality, family of origin, trauma and our relationship to society, religion and politics.    Richard's work has been highlighted many times in the media, but he is probably best known for introducing authentic Chinese Imperial Feng Shui to BBC TV's Housebusters and for his book The Feng Shui Diaries.   He has worked with A-Listers such as Gillian Anderson of the X-Files (who said he "commands both confidence and awe") and professionals like Britain's favourite Interior Designer, Kelly Hoppen (see link below). He has been the subject of the Sunday Times feature 'A Life in the Day', His Diaries, which are available free from this website, appear on the site of the Feng Shui Society. In the summer of 2010, he was on Big Brother's Little Brother to give his view of the Big Brother houses over the years, which he described as "the dark side of feng shui."   Check out his new book on Amazon: “I Talk to the Animals” https://a.co/d/25p7REA  

In this solo episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I dive into the valuable life lessons we as fathers can teach our kids through sports—lessons that go far beyond winning or losing. Whether it's about praising effort over outcomes, sharing personal stories of hard work, or simply playing together with no agenda, I explore how to build stronger bonds and greater resilience in our kids through these moments. This episode is a call to reframe how we show up on the sidelines and in life. Sports can be more than competition—they can be a platform for presence, growth, and connection. If you want to raise grounded, hardworking kids who aren't afraid of putting in the reps, this episode is for you. TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Kicking off the episode with intention and a mission for fatherhood [1:02] - The busy fall season: sports, school, and parenting chaos [2:22] - Why we must praise effort—not just outcomes—with our kids [3:46] - Childhood memories and the impact of working hard without reward [5:02] - Growth mindset: effort over results builds long-term confidence [6:29] - Combating entitlement by teaching consistent hard work [7:27] - Celebrating preparation, not just game-day performance [8:07] - Sharing real stories of hard work from our own lives with our kids [9:18] - Why credibility with your kids is built through relatable stories [9:38] - The power of play: connecting with our kids through shared activity [10:21] - Taekwondo with my son and football with another—just having fun [11:12] - Why the end result matters less than the connection [11:49] - A practical call to action: ask your kids what they learned from sports this week [12:26] - Don't let your kids off the hook—push for real answers [13:04] - Reflecting on the last quarter of the year and what's ahead [13:39] - A warning for business owners: don't build an empire and lose your family [14:19] - Links to join The Alliance or Business Boardroom [14:42] - Final recap and reminder to praise effort, share stories, and play together 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Praise Effort, Not Just Results When we focus on our kids' preparation, persistence, and grit rather than wins or trophies, we help them develop a growth mindset that builds confidence and resilience. 2. Real-Life Stories Create Connection Sharing your own stories of hard work, sacrifice, and struggle makes your guidance more credible and relatable—and shows your kids you've been in their shoes. 3. Play Without a Purpose Connection often happens in the unstructured moments. Whether it's football or taekwondo, playing with your kids for the sake of fun builds trust and memories. 4. Ask Better Questions Instead of asking “How was practice?”, ask “What did you learn this week from sports?” Push them to reflect and communicate their growth and insights. 5. Lead Without Losing What Matters Whether you're a career man or building a business, don't trade connection with your wife or kids for productivity. Build both—intentionally.

Are you wondering how to transform life's deepest traumas into a journey of healing, love, and purpose? In this powerful episode of Whinypaluza, Rebecca Greene sits down with Dr. Kaci M., CEO of Speaking Freedom, Certified Life, Love & Sex Coach, Army veteran, and host of Speaking Freedom TV/Radio. Dr. Kaci opens up about her journey from surviving childhood trauma and military service to building a life dedicated to helping others heal. She shares how she reframed PTSD and pain into lessons of resilience, how her concept of Spiritual Human Behavior blends psychology with faith and purpose, and why intimacy is a vital communication tool in marriage. Rebecca and Dr. Kaci also dive into the rollercoaster of parenting teenagers, the importance of finding compassion in relationships, and the courage it takes to step out of comfort zones and live aligned with your true purpose. This is an episode full of wisdom, vulnerability, and practical steps to help you see life through the eyes of love. Key Takeaways:→ Childhood trauma can be re-framed as life lessons that shape resilience and compassion.→ Military service gave structure, discipline, and values that still guide Dr. Kaci today.→ Spiritual Human Behavior blends psychology, purpose, and faith to help us understand who we really are.→ Marriage thrives when intimacy is embraced as a tool for communication and connection.→ Parenting teenagers requires patience, perspective, and remembering your own adolescence. Guest Quotes:“Trauma can be turned into a learning lesson—when you reimagine it, it no longer holds the same power.” “Your relationship with God should be free, without religious undertones telling you you're wrong.” Connect with Dr. Kaci M.:

In this episode of The Modern Man Podcast, host Ted Phaeton speaks with Dr. Ross Marchegiani, a functional wellness expert and chiropractic physician, about the importance of men's health, hormone optimization, and the need for emotional support among men. They discuss common health issues faced by men, the significance of proactive health checks, and the signs of hormonal imbalance. Dr. Marchegiani emphasizes the need for a holistic approach to health, addressing not just testosterone but also other hormones and lifestyle factors. The conversation highlights the importance of acknowledging and uplifting one another as men, and the benefits of optimizing health for better performance in all areas of life.   Takeaways Men often neglect their health and need to prioritize it. Acknowledgment among men can have a profound impact. Health encompasses physical, emotional, chemical, and spiritual aspects. Proactive health checks are essential, especially for hormones. Signs of hormonal imbalance include fatigue, weight gain, and low libido. Testosterone is just one piece of the hormonal puzzle. Lifestyle changes are crucial for optimal health. Stress management is vital for hormonal balance. Avoid endocrine disruptors like alcohol and processed foods. Seek help from knowledgeable practitioners for holistic health.
