In this episode, Sabrina breaks down self-abandonment in dating and relationships, why losing yourself often gets mislabeled as love, and how chronic people-pleasing, codependency, and anxious attachment actually form. Using psychology, neuroscience, and attachment theory, she explains differentiation of self, emotional fusion, and how the nervous system drives self-betrayal, protest behavior, and fear of abandonment in romantic relationships. You'll learn how to choose yourself without blowing up your relationship, stop outsourcing emotional regulation, set boundaries without guilt, and reconnect to your intuition versus anxiety. This episode is essential for anyone struggling with relationship anxiety, overgiving, losing their voice in dating, or repeating unhealthy relationship patterns.

On this bonus episode of the podcast, Host Amanda Head sits down with political science professor and Host of The P.A.S. Report, Nicholas Giordano to unpack the Save America Act and why they argue it is a critical step toward strengthening election integrity. Giordano highlights polling that shows 83% of Americans support voter ID laws, including majorities across political parties and racial groups, and explains how the legislation aims to implement stricter ID verification standards and maintain accurate voter rolls. The conversation addresses concerns about outdated registration records, non-citizen voting, and the broader debate over safeguarding public confidence in U.S. elections. Giordano also discusses the political hurdles facing the bill in the Senate, including the role of Senate rules and potential leadership efforts to move the legislation forward.

Get Legal & Insured Early - Register your business, set up an LLC or S-corp, and secure insurance as soon as possible—even if you haven't broken a window yet, accusations can happen and protection is vital. Build Social Proof and Reputation - Create a website, collect five-star reviews, and document your work (with permission). This builds trust and credibility, helping you attract more clients. Start Small, Grow Smart - Begin with strip malls, plazas, and storefronts rather than million-dollar homes. Learn the ropes in less risky environments before moving up. You Are Not "Special"—But You Can Be Successful - Let go of fantasies and realize that success comes from hard work. Embrace being the "window cleaning guy" because it's the path to financial freedom, new opportunities, and gratitude.

In this eye-opening DMZ discussion, Bill Scher (Washington Monthly) and Matt Lewis break down Donald Trump's sinking approval ratings in February 2026 — down to the low-to-mid 40s (or even 36% in some polls) amid economic anxiety, immigration chaos, tariffs, and self-inflicted controversies. Is Trump's second term already unraveling? And could a midterm backlash hand Democrats a real shot at flipping the Senate? They dive deep into the 2026 Senate map: — Strong pickup chances in Maine (Susan Collins vulnerable) and North Carolina — Competitive shots in Ohio (Sherrod Brown rematch?), Alaska (Mary Peltola), and long-shot Texas — Key defenses in Georgia, Michigan, and morePlus: Should Democrats pursue accountability for Trump-era actions if they win power, or focus on bread-and-butter issues to avoid backlash?

The future isn't coming, it's being built right now in Dubai, and the timeline will shock you. Take a glimpse inside the Dubai Future Foundation with its CEO, Khalfan Belhoul, where air taxis, drone deliveries, and AI-integrated infrastructure aren't concepts but deployment-ready solutions hitting the streets within 36 months. Khalfan explains how “future readiness” means creating safe environments where technology can fail fast, regulations bend for innovation, and entrepreneurs get direct access to decision-makers who ask, “how can we change anything?” instead of “here's why we can't.”  CLICK HERE TO BECOME GARYS VIP!: ⁠https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg⁠ Get Sheik Mohammed's book, “The Sheik CEO“ here: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/Sheikh-CEO-Dr-Yasar-Jarrar-ebook/dp/B085BN7W2B⁠ Connect with Khalfan Belhoul Website: ⁠https://www.dubaifuture.ae/⁠ YouTube: ⁠https://youtube.com/@dubaifuturefoundation?si=zgr5mPbzY9HnAhD4⁠ Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/dubaifuture/?hl=en⁠ TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@dubaifuturefoundation?lang=en⁠ Facebook: ⁠https://www.facebook.com/dubaifuture/⁠ X.com: ⁠https://x.com/DubaiFuture⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/dubaifuturefoundation/⁠ Thank you to our partners H2TABS: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: ⁠https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg⁠ BODYHEALTH: “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: ⁠http://bit.ly/4e5IjsV⁠ BAJA GOLD: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: ⁠https://bit.ly/3WSBqUa⁠ COLD LIFE: THE ULTIMATE HUMAN PLUNGE: ⁠https://bit.ly/4eULUKp⁠ WHOOP: JOIN AND GET 1 FREE MONTH!: ⁠https://bit.ly/3VQ0nzW⁠ AION: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: ⁠https://bit.ly/4h6KHAD⁠ A-GAME: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: ⁠http://bit.ly/4kek1ij⁠ PEPTUAL: “TUH10” FOR 10% OFF: ⁠https://bit.ly/4mKxgcn⁠ CARAWAY: “ULTIMATE” FOR 10% OFF: ⁠https://bit.ly/3Q1VmkC⁠ HEALF: 10% OFF YOUR ORDER: ⁠https://bit.ly/41HJg6S⁠ RHO NUTRITION: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: ⁠https://bit.ly/44fFza0⁠ GOPUFF: GET YOUR FAVORITE SNACK!: ⁠https://bit.ly/4obIFDC⁠ GENETIC TEST: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3Yg1Uk9⁠ Watch  the “Ultimate Human Podcast” every Tuesday & Thursday at 9AM EST: YouTube: ⁠https://bit.ly/3RPQYX8⁠ Podcasts: ⁠https://bit.ly/3RQftU0⁠ Connect with Gary Brecka Instagram: ⁠https://bit.ly/3RPpnFs⁠ TikTok: ⁠https://bit.ly/4coJ8fo⁠ X: ⁠https://bit.ly/3Opc8tf⁠ Facebook: ⁠https://bit.ly/464VA1H⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠https://bit.ly/4hH7Ri2⁠ Website: ⁠https://bit.ly/4eLDbdU⁠ Merch: ⁠https://bit.ly/4aBpOM1⁠ Newsletter: ⁠https://bit.ly/47ejrws⁠ Ask Gary: ⁠https://bit.ly/3PEAJuG⁠ Timestamps 00:00 Intro of Show 3:11 Building a Leading City of the Future  9:27 Dubai's Resilience and Agility  12:40 Embracing Technology for Development  15:24 Emirati Culture and Leadership in Dubai  22:16 What is Future Readiness?  29:10 Execution of Dubai Future Foundation's Vision  31:26 Vision of Dubai Sports Council  33:04 Dubai 30x30 Challenge Participation  37:13 Focus on the Human Being  42:51 Lessons from the Dubai Experiment  45:13 What does it mean to you to be an Ultimate Human?  Disclaimer: This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

Election integrity is the "kill switch" of a Republic. If the process is compromised, the system fails. In this America's Founding Series episode, we look at the forgotten story of William Richardson Davie and why his 1787 warnings about foreign influence and factional corruption are the exact reasons we need the SAVE Act today. Explore how Davie's experiences as a Revolutionary War cavalry officer shaped his defense of election security, clean voter rolls, and the constitutional authority behind the Elections Clause. His warnings about factional corruption, foreign influence, and manipulated election rules echo today's debates over voter ID, citizenship verification, and the SAVE Act. What You'll Learn Why the Founders feared corrupted elections more than foreign armies How William Davie explained the Elections Clause as a safeguard against factional abuse Why clean voter rolls and citizenship verification protect public trust How voter ID fits into the Founders' vision of election integrity Why modern debates over the SAVE Act reflect unresolved Founding era concerns This episode connects America's founding warnings to today's election integrity debates and explains why a constitutional republic cannot endure without a secure and trusted electoral process.

In this episode of Honey Bee Obscura, Jim Tew welcomes Anne Frey to explore the practical and often uncertain process of preparing for spring package bees. Together, they discuss one of the most common beekeeper questions—how many colonies to order—highlighting that the answer depends not only on winter losses, but also on personal goals, budget, and the balance between enjoyment and workload in beekeeping.  The conversation then shifts to the realities of transporting packages safely. Jim and Anne emphasize that overheating is the greatest danger during travel, noting the importance of airflow, spacing between packages, and avoiding enclosed vehicles or unnecessary stops that allow temperatures to rise. They share field experiences ranging from hauling large numbers of packages in trucks to improvising cooling strategies with water and ventilation—illustrating how quickly confined bees can become stressed or perish without proper care.  Beyond logistics, the episode reflects on the evolving motivations of beekeepers over time. Jim candidly considers scaling back to a smaller, more enjoyable number of colonies, while Anne reinforces that maintaining fewer hives can still be a meaningful and successful beekeeping path. The discussion ultimately returns to the excitement of beginning each season anew, reminding listeners that thoughtful planning—and keeping beekeeping fun—are just as important as the bees themselves.  ______________________ Thanks to Betterbee for sponsoring today's episode.

This startling gap in care is the driving force behind My Diabetes Tutor, a telehealth platform founded by Dr. Prem Sahasranam. His mission? To make diabetes education accessible to everyone, regardless of geography or socioeconomic barriers.Dr. Sahasranam, a board-certified endocrinologist with nearly two decades of experience, explained how critical education is in diabetes management: “Studies have shown that just going through diabetes education reduces A1C by 0.73 points. At our program, our outcomes are two times better than the national average.” With over 9,000 patients served, My Diabetes Tutor consistently delivers remarkable results, achieving an average A1C reduction of 1.6 points—enough to significantly lower complications and mortality rates.The idea for My Diabetes Tutor was born out of necessity. Dr. Sahasranam shared a story about how two full-time diabetes educators in his rural California practice helped patients achieve exceptional outcomes. When they retired in 2018, he struggled to recruit replacements, a problem endemic to underserved areas. “I decided to build a telehealth program,” he said. “My goal was to solve an access issue and deliver diabetes education to people, irrespective of their zip code or language.”My Diabetes Tutor provides nationally accredited virtual diabetes education, covering medical nutrition therapy, continuous glucose monitoring, insulin pump training, and more. The platform recently launched the first-ever pediatric diabetes education program, a groundbreaking step toward addressing the needs of young patients.Dr. Sahasranam's vision extends beyond patient outcomes to include investor participation. My Diabetes Tutor is currently raising capital through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on StartEngine. “I want investors to own a piece of our growth and be part of our journey,” he said. The company generated over $2 million in revenue last year with a 61 percent gross margin, demonstrating both impact and financial viability.Dr. Sahasranam's work is not just about business; it's a mission to transform lives. By breaking down barriers to education, he's giving people the tools to manage their diabetes effectively, live healthier lives, and reduce complications.For those looking to make a difference—or simply to invest in a business delivering measurable impact—My Diabetes Tutor offers a unique opportunity.tl;dr:Dr. Prem Sahasranam founded My Diabetes Tutor to provide virtual education for diabetes management.The program addresses barriers to care in underserved communities by delivering telehealth services nationwide.My Diabetes Tutor achieves outcomes twice as effective as national averages in reducing A1C levels.The company generated over $2 million in 2025 and is raising capital via StartEngine crowdfunding.Prem credits emotional intelligence as his superpower, driving his mission to revolutionize diabetes care.How to Develop Emotional Intelligence As a SuperpowerDr. Prem describes his superpower as emotional intelligence, honed through years of experience as a board-certified endocrinologist. He explained, “Most health systems focus on the biology of the disease and fail to address the human part.” By understanding the emotional and practical needs of patients, Prem has created innovative solutions to improve access to diabetes education. He added, “I learned from my experience and built the right team, content, and technology to bring in diabetes education, easily accessible for patients.”Prem shared a pivotal story of a patient who had been struggling to control their diabetes despite receiving appropriate medications. The patient hesitated to make a two-hour drive to see Prem but eventually visited his practice and met with a diabetes educator. Without altering the patient's medications, the educator provided tailored guidance that helped the patient manage their condition. This experience inspired Prem to create My Diabetes Tutor, ensuring patients could access life-changing education from their own homes.Tips for Developing Emotional Intelligence:Reflect on past experiences to identify unmet needs and learn from them.Stay aware of the human challenges behind systemic issues.Focus on creating solutions that address both emotional and practical barriers.Build strong, empathetic teams that align with your mission.By following Dr. Prem's example and advice, you can make emotional intelligence a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

In this episode, Mardi Winder sits down again with Laurie Gerber, a love and relationship coach who specializes in helping people after divorce find new relationships. Laurie shares her own experience of working through challenges in her marriage with coaching, which helped her gain insight into what really matters in keeping a relationship strong. This led her to become a coach herself, with a focus on dating and finding love, especially for women over 50.The conversation gets real about the fears and myths that hold people back from dating again, like the worry that there aren't any good partners left out there. Laurie reassures listeners that this simply isn't true, and encourages a shift in perspective, if you're here, so is someone else who's a good match. She talks about her 3H Method, which makes dating feel more manageable and fun: pay attention to what your head, heart, and “hoo ha” tell you about someone, and don't get bogged down with endless lists of requirements.There's practical advice on online dating, including how to stay safe and what to watch out for, and tips for handling awkward moments, like figuring out how to politely turn down a match after a video call. Laurie reminds everyone that dating is a numbers game and it's okay to say “no” if things aren't clicking. The whole chat is supportive and easygoing, aimed at helping anyone feel more confident about jumping back into the dating world at any point in life.About the Guest:Laurie Gerber is one of the most engaging and effective life coaches and presenters in the country.

This week Elle and Vee have a deep, free-flowing and wide-ranging chat with JC Wilde, writer and director of the film Wild Fire. They speak about emotional affairs and the radical honesty that nearly burned her marriage down, and then what happens when you stop performing “perfect partner” and start saying the thing that scares you most. Inspired by real-life truth-or-dare confessions, Wild Fire sparks a raw conversation about open relationships, people-pleasing, projection, and the freedom of a no-more-bullsh*t kind of love. This is a conversation that will stick with you long after it's finished, from how you approach relationships to noticing how ENM and queer relationships are depicted in film and TV.Evolving Sexuality & Identity Labels: how sexual orientation labels can help us discover ourselves, and how sexuality evolves over time.

(22:25)Realistic Portrayals of Queer Relationships & Non-Traditional Love: The L Word, Easy, The Overnight. (27:58)“Intimate Friends” vs. Romantic Partners: why emotionally intimate friendships matter. (36:52)Traditional vs. Nontraditional Relationship Dynamics: why ENM and polyamory spaces spark deeper conversations. (40:32)What Drives Emotional Intimacy? Why we crave deeper, more vulnerable conversations. (42:29)Projection & Judgment in Relationships: how criticism reveals more about you than your partner. (46:00)Challenging Monogamy: “Why limit love?” Rethinking traditional relationship models. (48:56)Radical Honesty & Radical Truth-Telling: burning away illusions to live authentically in love.

Remastered edition: re‑edited and shortened for clarity and pace.A cargo aircraft built for tanks, not toddlers. A city collapsing in April 1975. And a young Air Force medic from Flint who boarded anyway.In this Radio Free Flint interview, Flint‑born Air Force hero Sgt. Phillip Wise recounts the harrowing crash of an Air Force transport plane loaded with hundreds of orphaned Vietnamese‑American babies, his survival in the cargo hold, and his decades‑long quest to honor the lost and the rescued.Wise traces his journey from Flint Southwestern High School to the U.S. Air Force, where he served as a senior medical technician on aeromedical missions across Southeast Asia. When President Gerald Ford authorized Operation Babylift to evacuate Vietnamese orphans, Wise's unit transitioned from the DC-9 Nightingale to the massive C-5A Galaxy to move hundreds of children in a single flight.Fifteen minutes after takeoff from Saigon, the rear cargo doors failed. The aircraft rapidly decompressed. Hydraulics were crippled. The crew fought to return to Tan Son Nhut Air Base before the C-5A crash-landed in rice fields outside the city.The disaster became one of the most devastating aviation accidents of the Vietnam War.Wise survived the cargo compartment impact and later received the Airman's Medal for heroism. He reflects on rescue efforts, months of recovery, reunions with now-adult adoptees, and the complicated legacy of Operation Babylift—heroism, loss, identity, and the ethics of wartime evacuation.This is a firsthand account of the 1975 Operation Babylift crash, told by a Michigan veteran who lived through one of the final tragedies of the Vietnam War.Sgt. Wise wrote the book "Fragile Delivery: Operation Babylift" which sheds light on the Boeing C-5A crash. His writing sheds light on the doomed flight, the brave men and women involved in Operation Babylift, and one man's story of near-impossible survival in the horrifying shadow of death as the plane split violently apart in swampy rice paddies.Sgt Wise was the only crew on the cargo area of the plane to survive the tragic plane crash. Wise told the Flint Journal, "The doctors thought I would be a vegetable. They thought I wouldn't be able to see out of my left eye or to walk,” the Flint resident and decorated veteran said. “I came through with 20-20 vision. I became a mailman. I missed one day in 13 years."The U.S. Air Force bestowed upon Phillip Wise a medal for his heroism for his part in the military operation to rescue these children.  Phillip Wise is part of a veterans group Peaceful Warriors who speak across Michigan and the US about their role in helpThe Mitten Channel is a network of podcasts.

Optimize Closeness and Purpose PodcastFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCASTAnchor Your Mind in the PresentResearch shows that mind wandering—especially toward unpleasant or neutral thoughts—reduces happiness, while staying focused in the present increases well-being. Vital people cultivate awareness and deliberately protect their attention.Master the Dual Skill of Focus and Intentional WanderingContinuous distraction fractures well-being, yet excessive hyper-focus can suffocate creativity. The goal is to train yourself to focus like a laser most of the time while allowing intentional, non-judgmental mind wandering to spark learning, planning, and breakthroughs.Use Cognitive Drills to Strengthen AttentionPractical tools include 20-minute “cognitive sprints” on a single demanding task, quick awareness check-ins (“What am I doing? Where is my attention?”), and phone-free walks to encourage creative thought. These practices build neural endurance and improve performance.Discipline Is the Engine of VitalityDiscipline helps control impulses, build resilience, and prevent future regret. Embracing discomfort—through exercise, challenges, or habit formation—develops grit, which research suggests can outperform talent or IQ in predicting success.Moderate Caffeine Supports Brain Health and LongevityLarge studies show that drinking about two to three cups of caffeinated coffee daily is associated with lower dementia risk, stronger cognitive performance, reduced psychiatric disorders, and decreased inflammatory disease risk—making it a simple strategy to enhance vitality.Copyright VyVerse, LLC.

From Olympic sprinter to trusted advisor helping entrepreneurs save millions in taxes, David Flores Wilson shares proven strategies for QSBS planning, equity compensation design, and preparing business owners for successful exits both financially and personally. In this episode of the DealQuest Podcast, host Corey Kupfer sits down with David Flores Wilson, CFA, CFP, Managing Partner at Sinceres, who advises entrepreneurs and business owners in New York City on personal financial planning from formation to exit and beyond. David is a multiple Investopedia Top 100 Financial Advisor whose guidance has appeared in CNBC, Yahoo Finance, the New York Times, US News and World Report, and Investment News. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: In this episode, you'll discover how QSBS planning can potentially exclude $10 million to $70 million or more in capital gains from taxes when structured correctly, why LLC to C Corp conversion timing creates dramatic differences in tax outcomes, and how QSBS stacking through non-grantor trusts multiplies exclusions. David shares why equity compensation plans often fail to motivate the specific people they target and what questions to ask before choosing a vehicle. You'll also learn about the personal readiness component of exit planning that determines whether entrepreneurs thrive or struggle after selling their businesses. DAVID'S JOURNEY: David's path to financial planning started with entrepreneurial instincts in an unexpected place. Growing up in Guam, he ran a comic book arbitrage business as a kid, discovering price differences between local stores and mainland mail-order catalogs. His father was a CPA with a home office, and despite wanting nothing to do with accounting, David absorbed financial concepts through osmosis that would later prove invaluable. After college at UC Berkeley, David joined Lehman Brothers and worked through the financial crisis. During that time, colleagues started coming to him with financial planning questions, and he realized helping people with their money was his true passion. He sat on that realization for years before eventually transitioning to financial planning. When Covid hit in 2020, David and his partner Dan Ryan launched Sinceres, and the firm has been growing since. OLYMPICS LESSON: David represented Guam in track and field at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, competing in the 200 and 400 meters. The experience taught him something crucial about career selection. Unlike running, where pushing harder brings diminishing returns and constant injury risk, financial planning offers the opportunity to improve incrementally every single day. That compounding knowledge approach now drives how he serves clients. KEY INSIGHTS: QSBS planning stands out as potentially the most powerful tax planning tool for qualifying entrepreneurs. C Corps meeting holding period and active business requirements can exclude $10 million in gains, or 10 times basis for older shares, with new legislation increasing that to $15 million. The planning becomes even more powerful with LLC conversions where market value at conversion becomes the QSBS basis. The biggest mistake with equity compensation involves choosing vehicles based on what owners like rather than what motivates specific employees. "Equity" can mean participation in profits, upside potential, a seat at the table, or financial disclosure. Different people value these differently, and the best planning starts with understanding objectives before selecting tools. Exit planning involves three components that David implements from the first meeting with business owners. Getting personally ready addresses what provides purpose after selling. Getting financially ready ensures the numbers work. Getting business ready covers everything from customer concentration to management team development. The recent One Big Beautiful Bill Act has changed QSBS holding periods, SALT deductions, and AMT rules. Business owners should review their planning with advisors rather than assuming previous strategies still apply. Perfect for entrepreneurs considering entity structure decisions, business owners thinking about exit planning, and anyone interested in tax-efficient wealth building strategies.

I've worked with hundreds of top financial advisors over the years, and I keep seeing the same problem show up in different ways: incredibly talented advisors with empty calendars.The issue usually isn't effort. It's how marketing decisions are made. Too often, advisors run their marketing on emotion instead of math. In this episode, I break down the exact marketing framework I've shared with some of the fastest-growing firms in the country. We walk through how to evaluate marketing like an investment, not an expense. Why ROI and high frequency matters. And how shifting from one-to-one to one-to-many marketing creates leverage that allows you to scale beyond yourself.If you want a calendar that stays full without grinding harder, this episode gives you the mental model to build it intentionally—and scale it sustainably.3 of the biggest insights from Brad Johnson…#1.) Marketing Must Be Driven by Math, Not EmotionAdvisors often abandon proven strategies after one bad experience. When you understand the true numbers behind your funnels, you stop guessing and start investing with confidence.#2.) Frequency Is Just as Important as ROIA high-ROI strategy that runs only a few times per year can't scale your business alone. The best growth comes from balancing return and how often you can turn the volume up.#3.) One-to-Many Is the Ultimate Growth LeverThe most scalable advisory firms don't rely on one-to-one outreach. They use seminars, events, and content to serve many people at once—without sacrificing quality.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/155FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALXInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.

Oli Raison, co-founder of Safarini Leadership, designs immersive leadership expeditions in Kenya that combine cultural exchange with Samburu elders, wilderness trekking, and deep reflective coaching. In this conversation, Oli challenges one of leadership's most entrenched assumptions: that resilience is about individual grit and mental toughness. Drawing on the Samburu concept of naboisho—interdependence—he shows how real resilience is built through collective support, not solo endurance. He also names the single most important question leaders need to ask when entering any new culture or organization: What assumptions am I making? The catch? Most assumptions are invisible to us because they feel like "normal." Oli also explores why many wilderness and offsite leadership experiences fail to create lasting change, and shares his solution: a three-phase transformation framework—preparation, immersion, and integration—shaped by the work of past podcast guest, Joe Pine. This episode is an invitation to question your cultural defaults, rebuild genuine human connection, and develop a healthier relationship with time—so your leadership, and your team's resilience, can actually endure. Find episode 498 on The Leadership Podcast, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts! Watch this Episode on YouTube | Oli Raison on Why Grit Isn't Enough: Rethinking Resilience in Leadership https://bit.ly/TLP-498 Key Takeaways [04:12] Oli says the leadership assumption consistently dismantled his resilience—the Samburu are resilient through interdependence called "naboisho," not grit. [07:00] Oli identifies profound learning as the importance of having a shared sense of purpose and a very strong shared set of values. [08:31] Oli responds that people have very different expectations of leadership in different cultures around the world. [10:11] Oli reveals the Samburu doesn't have words for anxiety or depression and you'll certainly never meet somebody who knows somebody who committed suicide. Oli notes loneliness is now as damaging for your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. [12:00] Oli responds I think too much comfort can be a bad thing and people get discombobulated easily if things don't go quite to plan. [14:35] Oli answers the critical question leaders should ask: what assumptions am I making? Because we don't realize we're making assumptions. [17:07] Oli explains African societies have a fundamentally different understanding of time where there's always enough time. [20:10] Oli explains the Samburu are very spiritual people connected with their ancestors and you're also connected with your descendants. [22:30] Oli says mindset adjustment happens organically from just being offline during 10-day expeditions with six days of camel-supported trekking. [24:53] Oli describes their three-phase structure: preparation, immersion, and integration with coaching sessions at two, four, and six weeks after. [29:20] Oli responds his long-term impact is about flourishing, particularly helping men dealing with anxiety, depression, and suicidality. [31:43] Oli states his aspiration: how can we create workplaces, organizations and teams that flourish? Because that's when people really do their best work. [33:45] Jan shares his realization about keeping fingers on the keyboard versus closing the laptop because the most important thing is that person in front of you. [35:56] And remember..."One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure." - William Feather Quotable Quotes "The Samburu, what makes them so resilient is this concept of interdependence, this reliance, this collective reliance on one another...if my cattle get wiped out because of a really challenging drought, I know that my neighbors are going to step in and they're going to give me some of their cattle." "Naboisho is a word in their language which kind of roughly translates to coming together or unity. And they often say things like 'we are because they are,' that we are all sort of in this together." "This is a society that doesn't have words for anxiety or depression. And you'll certainly never meet somebody who knows somebody who committed suicide...loneliness is now as damaging for your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day." "In the west, we think of time as a commodity. We think of time as something that can be saved, it can be wasted, it can be lost. And as a result of that, I feel that time is the master of us and we are not the master of time." "The Samburu always say there's always enough time because they don't think of time as this continuous thing...time occurs when events happen, it's more relational and it's more eventful." "What assumptions am I making? And this is tricky, right, because a lot of the time we don't realize we're making assumptions." "We don't need to be experts, but we do need to be detectives...what assumptions am I making that might be getting in my way?" "All of this technology is actually causing our brains to operate on a frequency that is not conducive with creative thought at all. And by being in nature, just that alone creates an environment for people to have some really powerful insights." "I think one of the things that people come away with is I really need to take more time out to just contemplate and to think. You know, think about your business, think about your life. We don't take time to think anymore. We're just reacting." "This obsession with hyper productivity is actually just, again, it's all distraction, you know, it's taking us away from just being with ourselves in the moment or being with somebody else." "In 1990, the average man had five close friends and now he has one...every minute that we spend on a device, on a phone, on a laptop, thinking that we're connecting is a minute that we're not spending really connecting with somebody."

Joining us on this episode of Living Off Rentals is someone who built confidence, systems, and time freedom by learning real estate from the ground up. Stephanie Bacue is a U.S. Air Force veteran, short-term rental investor, and founder of Simply Welcome Stays. After transitioning from military service to corporate consulting, she began learning real estate as a complete beginner and went on to build a remote portfolio of short-term rental duplexes in Greenville, South Carolina. Listen as she shares how she bought her first duplex remotely, why she chose Greenville as her market, and how military discipline helped her create systems, remove emotion from decisions, and manage STRs with confidence from afar. She also talks candidly about leaning into community, building the right team on the ground, and what it really takes to move from W-2 work toward more control over your time through real estate.

In this conversation, GWIC host Dr. Hemma R. Lomax and Shalini Rajoo explore the critical role of decision rubrics in governance, accountability, and trust, especially in the context of AI. Shalini shares her journey from law to compliance, emphasizing the importance of understanding systems and the impact of leadership on decision-making processes. They discuss how transparency and clarity in decision-making can build trust within organizations and the necessity of responsible AI governance. Practical tips for improving decision quality are also provided, highlighting the importance of self-awareness and critical thinking in leadership. Takeaways: The biggest risk in governance is unclear decisions. AI amplifies existing clarity or confusion in decision-making. Systems and rules reflect the identities of their architects. Everyone has an impact on those around them every day. Leadership is about improving the people around you. It's not just about rules; it's about how people behave. Decision rubrics provide consistency and predictability in outcomes. Transparency in decision-making processes builds trust. Slowing down to ask questions can lead to better decision-making. Writing down the reasons for decisions brings clarity and accountability. Sound bites: "Systems and rules are not inherently neutral." "Transparency in decision making builds trust." "Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast." Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to Decision Rubrics and Governance 02:55 Shalini's Journey: From Law to Governance 06:09 The Impact of Systems on Leadership and Accountability 09:09 Transitioning to Compliance and Ethics 11:49 Understanding Decision Rubrics in Compliance 15:06 The Role of Leadership in Decision Making 18:03 Designing Conditions for Effective Decision Making 20:47 The Importance of Transparency in Decision Processes 24:09 Decision Rubrics: Building Trust in Organizations 26:49 AI and Governance: Leadership Infrastructure Failures 29:47 Responsible AI: The Role of Ethics and Compliance 32:55 Practical Tips for Improving Decision Quality 36:00 Conclusion: The Future of Decision Making in AI Guest Biography: Shalini Rajoo is the Founder and Principal Consultant of Shalini Rajoo Advisory, LLC, where she partners with organizations to design governance, compliance, and decision-making systems that are resilient, trustworthy, and aligned to real operational pressures. Across more than two decades in law, compliance, HR, and organizational leadership, Shalini has helped companies and leaders move beyond check-the-box frameworks to build structures that embed accountability, clarity, and performance into everyday decisions. She began her career in South Africa, first as a public prosecutor and then leading regulatory work with the Department of Trade and Industry, collaborating with legislative and executive stakeholders on corporate, competition, and consumer law. After relocating to the U.S., Shalini practiced commercial litigation. She later served as Director of Global Business Conduct for a Fortune 500 company, where she redesigned ethics and compliance systems, led global risk assessments, and championed psychological safety and integrity-based practices. Today, Shalini's work centers on helping leaders clarify decision rights, governance architectures, and accountability pathways — especially as organizations adopt AI and automation. She recently spoke at the Opal Group's Corporate Governance & Ethics in the Age of AI conference, where she reframed AI governance as a leadership-infrastructure challenge rather than a purely technical or compliance one.

For some fans of (American) Football, the Super Bowl is a major event. For some others, it's a chance to watch some unique commercials and movie trailer. For many, it's all about the HALFTIME SHOW! Needless to say, we're not the biggest fans of Football (or sports for that matter), but this Super Bowl held a bigger promise for us: a Big Game Spot for THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU, and a Halftime Show featuring Puerto Rican megastar BAD BUNNY!Some Star Wars and Puerto Rican culture, what could go wrong?With THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU release date only 3 months away, and it being the first Star Wars theatrical release since 2019, it seems that the marketing blitz for this film is...bizarre? Despite the Tauntauns, the hype for this film is somewhat lacking and we discuss all of it!In other Super Bowl news, after BAD BUNNY's show, the event is now called the BENITO BOWL. This performance was one of joy, love, and celebration of Puerto Rican and Latin culture, and as a Puerto Ricans this show was really transcendent and emotional. We discuss our reactions to this performance and the political connotations (and reactions) it presented. P FKN R!The only thing more power than hate is LOVE.We're releasing this episode as part of the Star Wars Podcast Day 2026 celebration! This event commemorates the (27th) anniversary of Jedi Talk, the very first Star Wars related podcast which premiered  back on February 7, 1999.

Abdelnour, is a broad look at what it takes to achieve success – financially and personally – and how business leaders can positively impact our culture to foster human flourishing and freedom.

In this episode, we tackle a conversation many professionals are quietly having: what it really means to start over. Not because we failed, but because the rules changed. Markets shifted, costs rose, and what once worked no longer does.We unpack how rebuilding begins with getting honest about where we are today, taking stock of our skills, relationships, and lessons learned, and letting go of identities tied to past success. We talk about the importance of reassessing who we listen to, finding energy through aligned action, and rediscovering the joy of being a beginner again.We also explore the emotional side of rebuilding, including ego, expectations, and the fear of letting go of what once was. The takeaway is clear: don't be intoxicated by past success or hungover from past failure. This next chapter isn't about going backward. It's about building forward, smarter, clearer, and more aligned than ever.We talk about:[00:00] Introduction and Welcome[01:56] Who Should Be in Your Circle When Rebuilding?[03:02] How Do You Get Honest About Where You Are Now?[05:45] Where Does Energy Come From When You're Burned Out?[08:45] What Should You Keep Doing—and What Should You Let Go?[10:26] How Do You Rebuild After Debt, Losses, and Setbacks?[15:49] How Do Ego and Identity Get in the Way of Starting Again?[21:49] Setting Aside Our Old Version of What We Used to Do.[30:42] OutroResources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.
