The meeting was a APH session hosted by Steve Robertson, focused on playing the long game in real estate. Steve shared his experiences and strategies for building long-term relationships, including hosting events like the Caboose Cup golf fundraiser and Pups and Pints, as well as farming neighborhoods through consistent mailings. He emphasized the importance of mindset, getting out of one's comfort zone, and creating opportunities by staying in front of clients and the community. Alyse, a fellow agent from San Antonio, joined the discussion and shared her approach to the long game, which relies on repeat business and referrals, as well as community involvement like sponsoring a rugby team. Both agents discussed the value of personal connections, events, and creative marketing tools like magnetic poker chip business cards. The conversation also touched on the current real estate market, the benefits of working with a team, and the use of video in marketing.
AI can make your work faster, cleaner, and more impressive. But can it also create an illusion of competence—improving the output while the judgment, expertise, and original thinking underneath it stop developing?In this special episode of The Good Leadership Podcast, Charles Good speaks with bestselling author and globally recognized business thinker Dorie Clark about what it takes to win the long game in an AI-driven world.Dorie explains why the abundance of information is making human attention increasingly scarce and why leaders must differentiate through clarity, a distinctive perspective, and ideas grounded in real experience. She also discusses the lasting value of trusted relationships, reciprocity, personal branding, visibility, and becoming known for something meaningful.The conversation explores why many capable leaders are working harder while feeling less confident about their futures, how short-term wins can conceal long-term capability erosion, and why AI-generated polish should never be confused with genuine expertise.Dorie also shares practical guidance for:Using AI as a thinking partner rather than a thinking substituteDeveloping judgment through deliberate practice and reflectionInvesting AI-created time in skills, relationships, and strategic assetsBuilding a visible platform and recognizable point of viewKnowing when to persist and when to repositionTaking small actions that compound over five or ten yearsThe episode also examines the potential for AI to transform healthcare and human longevity—and why the biggest opportunities may emerge when technological innovation is paired with distinctly human judgment and relationships.Dorie Clark teaches executive education at Columbia Business School and is the bestselling author of The Long Game, Reinventing You, Stand Out, and Entrepreneurial You. She has been named four times to the Thinkers50 list of the world's leading business thinkers.

On this week's episode of The Long Game podcast, Ben and Jason discuss Christopher Nolan's "Odyssey" movie and whether he bastardised a classic of the Western canon; why the Government is right to pursue inheritance tax cuts; and the role that degenerate online content plays in the warping of minds like Lorcan Murphy's.
“The Long Game” - a lesson on the importance of understanding that our duty is to sow and do good while we can, leaving the reaping (the results) in the hands of the sovereign Lord of the harvest. Music: “A Plea For and To Our Children” Lyrics by William Cowper. Arranged by Toby Logsdon. Performed by “Theotronica!” Copyright ©TobyLogsdon, 2026.
The sermon exhorts believers to embrace a long-term perspective in their Christian walk, countering the cultural obsession with instant gratification. Drawing from Galatians 6:9-10, it emphasizes that spiritual growth and sanctification are slow processes requiring diligence and patience, much like agriculture. The preacher warns against discouragement when immediate results are absent, reminding listeners that God alone controls the harvest of their faithful labor. By citing historical examples like Elijah and missionaries, the message encourages steadfastness in doing good to all people, especially within the church family. Ultimately, Christians are called to trust in God's sovereign timing and promise to reap eternal life if they do not grow weary in well-doing.
This week, we're bringing you a double feature of Politicology+ special previews. First, Ron Steslow talks with Mike Madrid about his invitation to debate at the Oxford Union, where he argued the position that Donald Trump has betrayed the conservative movement. Mike describes the pageantry and weight of history at one of the world's most storied debating societies, the case he built around Edmund Burke, the opposing arguments he found most compelling. Then, Hagar Chemali and Jay Solomon unpack how Qatar, a tiny Gulf nation with just 350,000 citizens, has built one of the most wide-reaching influence networks in the world. They start with a scandal involving Israeli columnist Alon Pinkas, who received Qatari-linked payments while writing about Qatar, and use it to trace the larger system behind it. From there, the conversation widens to Qatar's strategic investments and lobbying efforts across media, universities, think tanks, diplomacy, and politics. Then, they break down Qatar's long game: using money, access, and soft power to position itself as an indispensable player in the Middle East—and reshape Western institutions in the process.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – That is why the fight over semiconductors is not a niche technology debate. It is a national survival issue. If one foreign-linked network can dominate memory chips, chip fabrication, 5G infrastructure, robotics, and artificial intelligence, then the future of American defense and American freedom is at risk. The same goes for election systems...

On this episode of Travis Makes Money, Travis sits down solo to unpack one of the most important success themes from nearly 2,000 episodes: thinking long term and staying in the game when most people tap out early. Rather than featuring a single guest, Travis pulls together stories and lessons from a diverse roster of past guests—comedians, pro athletes, coaches, and entertainers—who all built durable careers by embracing the long road. On this episode we talk about: Why “if you're not in the long game, you're in the wrong game” applies to money, business, and creative careers. Joe Gatto's “18‑year overnight success” story and the Impractical Jokers crew turning down a bigger MTV deal to bet on the long-term TrueTV opportunity. Drew Dunne's brick‑by‑brick approach to comedy and the power of saying no to distractions so you can build a skyscraper instead of popsicle-stick success. What the research on grit actually says—why passion plus perseverance beats raw IQ over long timelines. How Henry Ford's early failures, podcast graveyard stats, and Travis's own nine‑year journey prove most people overestimate one year and underestimate ten. Top 3 Takeaways Durable success takes longer than you think. Nearly every high‑performer Travis references built something meaningful on a timeline far longer than they expected, their peers expected, or social media says is “normal.” Passion fuels grit and smart persistence. Research on grit shows that perseverance only pays off when it is paired with genuine interest; grinding without passion doesn't create the same outcomes, but passion can live inside “boring” businesses via what you optimize and care about. Stay in the game long enough to benefit from compounding. From Ford Motor Company to Impractical Jokers to Travis's own nine‑year podcast journey, the win comes from refusing short‑term relief, learning from failures, and making relationship and career decisions with a ten‑year lens instead of a ten‑episode lens. Notable Quotes “We're an 18‑year overnight success. You have to outlast the nos. You have to just keep going against the nos.” – Joe Gatto “It is the longest possible road you can have in a career. Every opportunity I've gotten, I've gotten it two years after I thought I should have had it. I'm building a skyscraper. You can get a lot higher than me if you're building with popsicle sticks and Elmer's glue, but I'm just going to keep laying bricks.” – Drew Dunne “Most people will overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in 10 years.” – Travis Connect with Travis Chappell: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell Website: https://travischappell.com A Word from Our Sponsors: - Visit DrinkAG1.com/TMM to get a free AG1 Travel Case with 7 free AG1Travel Packs in your Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription order while supplies last. - Go to Leesa.com for 25% OFF select mattresses (through July 26, 2026) PLUS get an extra $50 off with promo code TMM, exclusive for my listeners - To learn more about Mode Mobile and its investor community, go to https://invest.modemobile.com/travismakesmoney -Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.Capture leads, nurture them, and close more deals—all from one powerful platform.Get an extended free trial at gohighlevel.com/travis Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Akash and Ed break down the three phases where relationships tend to hit friction on a body transformation journey: the conversation before you even sign up, the moment your partner realizes how much is actually going to change, and the long-term shift once you're in shape and staying there. They cover the different "buyer" archetypes people fall into when starting a program (including the ones who join in secret), why preaching to your partner almost always backfires, and how to ask for support in a way that actually works. Akash and Ed also share their own relationship habits, from a weekly five-point check-in ritual to how they've learned to divide training time with their own wives, and close with a simple but important point: if you wouldn't want your partner to overhear how you talk about them, that's a sign the conversation needs to happen directly. Whether your partner is fully on board, quietly skeptical, or actively pushing back, this episode gives you a framework for navigating it, without turning your transformation into a source of tension at home.

Episode Summary When Jamole Callahan was fifteen, he realized the adults were meeting every few months to decide his future, and he was never in the room. He spent six years in foster care across nine homes and aged out at eighteen into the kind of instability that pushes so many young people straight into homelessness. Twenty years later, the rooms have flipped: lawmakers now invite him in, and he has helped shape the federal housing policy that gives young people leaving care a longer runway of support. He talks with host Micaela Tracy about the meetings he fought his way into, the foster-agency worker who finally leveled with him, the science teacher he now calls dad, and why housing is the foundation everything else depends on. His message reaches past the system to anyone listening: throw the pebble in the pond, because your expertise is someone else's learned skill, and the ripple reaches a shore you may never see.

What does it look like to build a company the right way — not the fastest way? In this episode of Roots of Success, host Chris Psencik reconnects with one of his oldest friends in the industry, Kyle Cahill, founder of Grown Company in Houston and newly elected Chair of the Texas Nursery and Landscape Association (TNLA). Kyle shares the full story: launching a company two weeks before his first daughter was born, losing $5,000 on his first big job, running the business out of his driveway, and eventually earning recognition as one of Houston's top family-owned businesses. From talent retention and strategic planning to water legislation and the future of the green industry in Texas, this conversation covers the full picture of what it means to build something that lasts.

Australia's social media ban for children under 16 has generated headlines around the world, but perhaps not for the reasons many expected. Three months after the law took effect, most teenagers were still finding ways around it. Did the policy fail? Maybe not. In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne and Dr. Kathy explore why true formation is rarely measured in months. Instead, they discuss how parents shape character over the years through consistent habits and patient discipleship. If you've ever wondered whether your parenting is making a difference, this conversation offers a hopeful reminder that God's work in our children is often slow, quiet, and deeply transformative.
We have an incredible ability to let one unmet desire overshadow a thousand undeserved blessings.

Three years ago, Scott Dicker of SPINS joined us on Episode #082 of the PricePlow Podcast to talk creatine, collagen, and where sports nutrition was heading next. On Episode #224, Scott returns to grade his own predictions and dig into everything that’s changed since February 2023. The report card is mostly great news for Scott. Creatine’s move into cognitive health and older demographics played out almost exactly as he called it, hydration supplements kept climbing even as ready-to-drink sports drinks flattened out, and Red Bull is still the top-selling energy drink despite years of Celsius, Alani, Ghost, and C4 taking share. Scott, Mike, and Ben also cover where his 2023 calls needed adjusting, from ashwagandha’s staying power to pre-workout’s real exposure to energy drinks. From there, the conversation moves into new territory: the creatine gummy boom, GLP-1 ripple effects on weight management and protein, precision fermentation’s push into alternative dairy proteins, and Scott’s fresh picks for the next ingredients to watch. https://blog.priceplow.com/podcast/kaitlyn-kenna-smith-223 Video: Scott Dicker of SPINS Grades His 2023 Supplement Trend Predictions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDaC4LVirBk Detailed Show Notes: Scott Dicker Returns After 3 Years of SPINS Supplement Trend Predictions (0:00) – Introductions (2:00) – Grading the Creatine Call Three Years Later (3:30) – Sports Nutrition as the Testing Ground for Mainstream Trends (8:00) – Hydration Shifts From Ready-to-Drink to Ready-to-Mix (11:15) – Energy Drinks Continue Eating Into Pre-Workout Occasions (16:30) – Red Bull Still Reigns, But the Perception Game Has Changed (19:30) – Premium Pricing Reshapes the Creatine Category (22:45) – Creatine Gummies Go From Novelty to Mainstream (25:45) – Better Formats Win: Soft Chews and the Push for Stability (27:15) – Delivery Formats and the Rise of “Permissible Indulgence” (30:45) – L-Theanine and the Hunt for Stim-Free Alternatives (37:30) – Kava, Caffeine Modulation, and the New Wave of Session Drinks (42:45) – Why “Natural Flavors” on the Label Isn’t Enough Anymore (48:15) – GLP-1s Reshape Weight Management and Create New Companion Categories (52:15) – Active Lifestyle Meets Natural and Organic: A Consumer Venn Diagram (59:15) – Cognizin, Health Span, and Winning the AI Search Era (1:01:45) – Horseshoe Theory: How Niche Trends Find the Mainstream (1:04:45) – Precision Fermentation’s Long Game for Alternative Proteins (1:11:15) – Ice Cream and the Challenge of Refrigerated Snacking (1:13:30) – Are Functional Ingredients Welcome in Snacks?

- The episode opens by blasting the Supreme Court's birthright citizenship ruling, arguing it protects birth tourism, expands automatic citizenship for children of illegal immigrants, and hands Democrats a long-term political win. - A major focus is the contrast between constitutional originalism and what the show sees as Republican judicial weakness, with Amy Coney Barrett and John Roberts singled out for siding against the Trump administration on immigration and citizenship. - The show also hits the Supreme Court's ruling on transgender athletes, framing the decision as a necessary correction after years of girls being forced to compete against boys in the name of woke ideology. - Another central theme is the rise of open socialism inside the Democratic Party, from Colorado to New York, with candidates like Milat Kiros and Zohran Mamdani presented as proof that anti-capitalist, anti-Israel, anti-American politics are moving into the mainstream. - The episode closes on Sophie Cunningham and the Caitlin Clark backlash, arguing that the WNBA and parts of the sports media still cannot accept the league's biggest draw and are openly hostile to the player who changed its relevance.

Is It Possible to Spend Too Little in Retirement? Episode 390 – It has been well documented that the biggest fear people have in retirement is running out of money. Incredibly, according to a 2024 survey done by Allianz Life, 63 percent of Americans are more fearful about running out of money than they are about dying. But is it possible to overdo it? More SML Planning Minute Podcast Episodes Transcript of Podcast Episode 390 Hello, this is Bill Rainaldi, with another edition of Security Mutual's SML Planning Minute. In today's episode: is it possible to spend too little in retirement? It has been well documented that the biggest fear people have in retirement is running out of money. Incredibly, according to a 2024 survey by Allianz Life, 63 percent of Americans were more fearful about running out of money than they were about dying.[1] That may be taking things to an extreme, but there's a valid point. It's perfectly reasonable to worry about running dry when you're used to a certain lifestyle and you no longer have a steady paycheck. And mortality tables these days are more favorable than many people realize. For example, the odds are better than 50-50, if you're a married couple both age 62, that at least one of you is going to live past age 90.[2] So, you may have to figure out a spending plan—without the employment income you've become used to—for potentially 30 years or more. Retirement is a huge turning point in most people's lives. You're switching from a savings and accumulation mindset to one where you're living (at least partially) off of those savings. You might have gotten used to seeing your net worth go up considerably over the last few years. But for most of us, those days are over once you make the crossover. It's a major psychological barrier, so of course you're going to be concerned about overspending. But how much is too much, or more appropriately, how little is too little? Do you think you might look back during your last years, and feel like you could have done more with your family, and you don't really need all that money you have now? The risks of overspending, particularly in the early years of retirement, should be obvious. But what exactly are the risks of underspending? According to an article by Greg Iacurci for CNBC, one big risk is “Not living as fulfilling a life as one could have.”[3] This could mean foregoing a big family trip, that could give your children and grandchildren memories to last a lifetime, because you're afraid you're going to run out of money years down the road. Then there's the issue of inheritance. Many parents hope to leave a certain amount of money to their children and grandchildren when they're gone. That could be a factor in your calculation. Cutting back on your spending now would likely benefit them later on. But is it worth it? But perhaps there's another way. How about purchasing some additional life insurance? The right amount of life insurance might make you more comfortable with the idea of living the life you've already earned. It's a straightforward idea: the more life insurance you have, the less you need to worry about your kids' inheritance. There is data to indicate that underspending is more common than people realize.[4] In a recent study by the Employee Benefit Research Institute, 33 percent of retirees still have 100 percent or more of their initial savings amount remaining by the time they get to their mid-80s.[5] Recent medical developments have complicated the equation. Progress against diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer’s and heart disease could extend all of our lives further than we expected. That is, of course, great news. But it could cause some financial complications. Another approach, advanced by some, is that we need to adjust our spending based on what “phase” of retirement we are in. The argument goes that there are three “phases” of retirement: the “go-go,” the “slow-go” and the “no-go” years.[6] You're certainly less likely to be travelling the world during your declining years, so chances are you'll be spending less. It could be a way to justify spending more during the early “go-go” years, although you also need to consider the possibility of increased health care costs during your later “no go” years. So why wouldn't you spend a little extra while you have the opportunity to enjoy it? The truth is that every situation is different, and there's no one correct answer. It is possible to spend too little during retirement, but the consequences of spending too much can be far more significant. Perhaps the best you can do is focus on time with your family. Quality time creates lasting memories. That could mean a few vacations to exotic places, but it doesn't have to be that way. Sometimes a simple visit or gesture can go just as far. The transition to retirement is filled with uncertainty. “Have I saved enough?”, “How long will my savings last?”, “Can I afford to live it up a little bit?” Such questions will likely arise, but you don't need to go it alone.

Today we talk about how parent reactivity, historical family patterns, and systemic overwhelm inadvertently trap families in cyclical power struggles. Emily Kircher-Morris welcomes Diane Dempster, a professional coach, author, and co-founder of ImpactParents, to talk about how urgency often drives parents out of an objective problem-solving mindset, and toward reactionary behaviors that over-manage their kids, rather than supporting their neurological growth. They talk about the family as an interdependent system, and about how interpersonal traps of the traditional drama triangle can cause family members to cycle through the roles of villain, victim, and rescuer. They also discuss the ImpactParents framework, which categorizes parenting modalities into four intentional roles: director, collaborator, supporter, and champion. By learning these roles, parents can safely allow productive struggle while maintaining connection. TAKEAWAYS Responses to acute childhood dysregulation are often heavily influenced by an internalized fear of the future, childhood parenting histories, and secondary social pressures. Executive functioning challenges can often be lessened by a clear shift from top-down behavior modification rules to collaborative family agreements. Effective parent scaffolding can be structured across four situational modalities: the director, the collaborator, the supporter, and the champion. The upcoming CE training Emily talks about on this week's episode features Dr. Christopher Willard, and is titled, "The New 3 R's: Mindfulness-Based Resilience, Regulation, and Relationships." The training is live online Friday, July 10 from 2:00 to 3:30 pm Eastern, and is approved for 1.5 APA and NBCC continuing education hours.

Have you ever looked at your life and wondered why, after all the effort, nothing seems different? You keep showing up, doing the things you're supposed to do, waiting for some sign that it's working. But what if the most important changes don't arrive with a big moment? What if they're happening quietly, somewhere just outside your view? This week, we're talking about patience, progress, and the strange way growth likes to hide. Join me as we Calm it Down in 3...2...1.
Worship leader and pastor Tauren Wells sits down with Pastor Bobby for a raw, honest conversation on calling, character, and the long game of faith. They talk about growing up in dysfunction, breaking generational patterns through Jesus, using church for healing instead of numbing, discerning your purpose through “design, desire, and dread,” and staying humble and grounded while balancing ministry, music, and family.
In this episode of On The Mark, host Mark Immelman is joined by South African golf instructor Rick Currin, who teaches in Malaysia and specializes in making golf simpler, more playable, and easier to improve. Rick brings a biomechanics and sports science background to his coaching, but his message is refreshingly practical: stop overcomplicating the game, manage the course smarter, and build a swing and short game that help you avoid big numbers. Mark and Rick walk through a “mini boot camp” for your whole game—course management, driver setup, iron play, pitching, bunker shots, lag putting, and short putts—with one clear goal: help golfers score better by making better decisions and executing simpler shots. In This Episode, You'll Learn: ✅ Why avoiding double bogeys is one of the fastest ways to lower scores ✅ How to manage a golf course by playing to your strengths—not your ego ✅ Why “boring golf” can be the smartest path to better scores ✅ How better posture and setup can help you drive the ball more consistently ✅ Why irons should be treated like precision clubs, not power clubs ✅ A simple pitching key: narrow stance, toe down, rhythm, and less tension ✅ The bunker-shot mindset: speed and trust ✅ Why lag putting is an overlooked scoring skill—and how to practice it better, and ✅ How to improve short putts with a simple, repeatable routine. Key Themes: Golf Made Simple - Rick's coaching philosophy is built around cutting through overload. Instead of chasing every tip, golfers need simple, repeatable ideas they can actually use on the course. Course Management Saves Shots - You do not always need driver off the tee. Sometimes a 6-iron in play, followed by another smart shot, creates a better scoring opportunity than forcing driver into trouble. Discipline Starts Before the Swing - Rick emphasizes discipline in the pre-shot routine and decision-making. Poor choices often begin before the club ever moves. Athletic Setup Matters - Better driving starts with posture, balance, and body readiness. Rick explains how rounded posture and tension can limit rotation and make it harder to square the face. Precision Over Power With irons and wedges - Rick encourages golfers to take an extra club, make a controlled swing, and focus on solid contact and dispersion—not maximum distance. Short Game Variety Wins - You do not always have to fly the ball to the hole. Rick prefers using the contours of the course, bump-and-run options, and different clubs around the green when the shot allows it.

Art Marketing Podcast: How to Sell Art Online and Generate Consistent Monthly Sales
The most influential poster in the history of art was an ad for a play. It was designed by a broke, unknown illustrator who only got the job because he was the one stuck working over the holidays. His name was Alphonse Mucha, and that single commission — a rush job nobody else wanted — turned him into the father of Art Nouveau. He didn't sit in a studio and find his direction. A customer handed it to him. Want to join Patrick for a live webinar? He hosts one every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Register here: asf.today/webinar That's the heart of this episode: a commission isn't a compromise. It's an idea-generation machine. A client drags you somewhere you'd never have chosen on your own — and every so often, that detour becomes your entire career. It happened to Mucha. It happened to a portrait painter named George Stubbs who took a few horse commissions and ended up the greatest equine painter who ever lived. It happened to a studio photographer named Dorothea Lange the day a government assignment sent her into the migrant camps. But before we get to the good news, we have to clear out the lies. The longer you spend in this business, the more you realize the "sacred truths" of the art world are mostly nonsense — and most of them are really just hobbyist rules wearing a business suit. (If you've heard me draw the hobbyist-vs-business line before, this is where it earns its keep — same line that runs under The Long Game.) In this episode: The Christmas shift that invented Art Nouveau — how Mucha got the job nobody wanted and never looked back Six "sacred truths" of the art business that are complete nonsense — and the one thing wrong with every single one of them "You need a niche before you can start" — why you don't pick your niche; the work reveals it "Good art sells itself" — the $128 of thrift-store junk that resold for $3,612 on stories alone, a $3.5M violin that earned $32 in a subway, and the painter who went from unsold to $2.5 million without changing a brushstroke "Never discount your work" — why that rule is real, why it isn't yours, and what the galleries who preach it actually do behind closed doors The line in the sand: hobby or business? Drucker said a business has exactly one purpose — to create a customer — and in that equation, you don't get the last word. The market does. "Nobody bought it, so I'm a failure" — the lie that makes good artists quit, and why Picasso died holding roughly 45,000 of his own unsold works Why constraints beat the blank canvas — Stravinsky, and the bet that produced Green Eggs and Ham in 50 words The honest catch: when a commission becomes a cage instead of a doorway, and how to tell the difference This week's homework: take the one commission you'd normally turn down — the weird request, the subject you'd never choose, the client who wants something slightly off from your usual. Say yes to it. Then watch where it drags you. Reply or DM me what you learned — I read every single one. Resources mentioned: Art Storefronts — the storefront engine for working artists The Mucha Foundation — the Gismonda poster and the birth of Art Nouveau Significant Objects — the experiment that turned $128 of junk into $3,612 with nothing but stories Pearls Before Breakfast — the Washington Post's Pulitzer-winning Joshua Bell subway story Freakonomics: The Hidden Side of the Art Market — how art is really priced (and why prices "only go up") Related episodes: The Gallery Test — Should Artists List Prices on Their Website? The Long Game — Why Your Website Will Still Be Working in 2055 POD and Samples — What Wyland and Gray Malin Actually Do 20 Ways to Grow Your Email List as an Artist — hobbyist or business, the honest cut So here's the takeaway. If you're a hobbyist, make whatever you want, forever, and be happy — there's no shame in it. But if you want a business, stop waiting for the market to reward your purity, because it never will. Go meet it. Say yes to the commission, the weird job, the thing you'd never have chosen — because that yes creates a customer, which is the only thing that makes you a business, and it just might drag you, like it dragged Mucha off that holiday shift, straight into the work you were put here to make.
