In this episode, I share a deeply personal and wide ranging conversation I recently had with Greg Gerber, host of the Forward From 50 podcast. Greg originally came into my world more than a decade ago as a Podcasting A to Z student. Today, he hosts a show dedicated to people over fifty who know their best work is still ahead of them. The conversation became a powerful reflection on identity, ambition, reinvention, and what it means to step fully into the work you were made to do. This conversation tells the story of my journey from insurance agent to podcaster, from Podcast Answer Man to mindset and business strategist, and now into this next chapter where everything is coming together with more clarity and alignment than ever before. Key insights from this conversation Your voice and desire to communicate are not accidents. They are clues to what you are here to do. Mine started with CB radio and a toy microphone long before podcasting ever existed. Leaving a career that works is often harder than leaving one that fails. Walking away from insurance, and later from Podcast Answer Man, required trusting who I was becoming more than what I had already built. Podcasting A to Z did far more than launch shows. It revealed that most people were really looking for business clarity, confidence, and a way to create income and impact from what they already knew. The difference between a hobby and a business is not a podcast. It is having a clear ideal client, a real problem, and a way to solve it that people are willing to pay for. Your identity is not the role you played. Losing a job or retiring does not mean you lost who you are. It just means one chapter ended. Journaling is one of the fastest ways to reconnect with who you are, why you are here, and what you actually want. Desire is not something to be justified. It is something to be listened to. The 50 Things I Want exercise is a way to let that voice speak again. The people you surround yourself with either expand your vision or quietly shrink it. Choose wisely. The return of Podcast Answer Man is not nostalgia. It is a strategic move made possible by new tools, better leverage, and a deeper understanding of how I serve people best. The first fifty years of my life were preparation for the work I am doing now. Ready to start your own podcast If this episode stirred something in you and you have been thinking about starting a podcast or finally taking the one you have more seriously, I invite you to join me for my next session of Podcasting A to Z. This is my four week live coaching experience where you and I work together to turn your idea, message, and voice into real impact. You can learn more and register at PodcastingAtoZ.com
Losing the fear of not drinking can feel impossible, can't it? For Lindsey, alcohol was woven into every milestone: sixth-grade sleepovers, college weekends, early marriage, and long workweeks that ended with “just one more” drink on the couch. Drinking wasn't just a habit; it was how she fit in, turned off the noise, and chased that first rush of feeling totally okay for a moment. Over time, the hangovers became brutal, and the mental fallout was even worse—fights with her husband, Sunday dread, and memories she didn't always want to remember. One morning, after a night that ended with a chipped tooth and dry heaving on the kitchen floor while her daughter watched, something inside her shifted. Lindsey found This Naked Mind and, for the first time, felt like someone was telling her she wasn't broken—this is simply what alcohol does. The book became a permission slip to step off the hamster wheel and experiment with not drinking at all. In this episode, Lindsey joins Coach Cole to talk about rebuilding self-trust, reshaping a marriage that was once built on drinks, and becoming the kind of mom whose daughters see her saying “no” with confidence instead of needing a glass to cope. Lindsey and Coach Cole discuss: Lindsey describes the first drink in middle school and how quickly alcohol became tied to identity, popularity, and feeling “okay” for a moment. The progression from curiosity to dependence: chasing euphoria, ignoring red flags, and waking up in emotional and physical pain. How “I'll just drink less” experiments and endless rules kept her stuck in the same cycle of regret, self-doubt, and harsh inner dialogue. The breaking point: a trip that ended with a chipped tooth, a morning spent on the bathroom floor, and her daughter seeing a version of mom Lindsey never wanted to be. Finding This Naked Mind and reframing her story—from “I'm the problem” to “this is what alcohol does,” opening space to question everything. What changed when she began losing the fear of not drinking: more stable moods, clearer health goals as a trainer, and deeper presence with her family. The new foundation of her marriage and parenting—less reactivity, more responsibility for her own choices, and a commitment not to be someone else's story of what they had to overcome. How losing the fear of not drinking allowed Lindsey to feel “light as a feather” and more.

The Weight of Pain: Understanding that pain has a physical and emotional weight can help leaders connect with those they serve. Leaders should be willing to share in that weight without trying to fix it. Boundaries are Essential: Leaders must establish healthy boundaries to protect their own mental health. This includes recognizing when to step back from situations that may overwhelm them. Community Support: A strong community can enhance recovery and support. Leaders should encourage individuals to seek help from a broader network rather than relying solely on them. Forgiveness and Compassion: Leaders need to practice forgiveness towards those who may not show gratitude or who take advantage of their help. This allows leaders to continue serving without resentment. Opposition in All Things: Recognizing that challenges are a part of life can help leaders understand that they cannot solve every problem. This perspective fosters resilience and growth. Leadership Applications Creating Safe Spaces: Leaders can foster environments where individuals feel safe to express their struggles without fear of judgment. This can be achieved by openly discussing difficult emotions and experiences. Utilizing Resources: Leaders should leverage the strengths of their community by connecting individuals with appropriate resources, such as support groups or other members who have faced similar challenges. Regular Check-Ins: Leaders should regularly assess their own well-being and that of their fellow leaders. This can help prevent burnout and ensure that they are equipped to support others effectively.

2026-01-08 | UPDATES #093 | Leonid Ivashov “goes off script” in late 2025 — not a dissident or part of the systemic opposition, but a regime insider, offering an elite-military critique of the Ukraine war and Putin's imperial project. His judgement is not positive and is not complimentary. The “1,400 days” blast: a system general describes strategic failure and state rotThis is something rare in Putin's Russia: a senior, establishment-bred military voice penned a fierce critique of Putin's war and its management that is being circulated — Leonid Ivashov is saying the quiet part out loud. This normally means tea, window or altitude cancer. Late in December, a set of quotes attributed to retired Colonel-General Leonid Ivashov has been widely reposted — especially via X and secondary reposts — framed as his assessment after roughly 1,400 days of Russia's full-scale war. One widely shared compilation was reposted on Saturday, 27 December 2025.----------SOURCES: https://diplomatizzando.blogspot.com/2025/12/general-leonid-ivashov-strongly.htmlhttps://art-of-arts.livejournal.com/1126865.htmlhttps://svpressa.ru/politic/article/456495/https://news.rambler.ru/army/51098930-leonid-ivashov-sdelayte-tak-chtoby-lyudi-perestali-gibnut-perestali-stradat/ (republishing Svobodnaya Pressa, 15 July 2023)https://cepa.org/article/russia-and-the-rocketmen/https://altanalyses.org/en/2022/02/07/general-leonid-ivashovs-draft-appeal-is-an-all-out-attack-on-vladimir-putin/https://izborsk-club.ru/author/ivashovhttps://izborsk-club.ru/22165https://izborsk-club.ru/15124----------Silicon Curtain is a part of the Christmas Tree Trucks 2025 campaign - an ambitious fundraiser led by a group of our wonderful team of information warriors raising 110,000 EUR for the Ukrainian army. https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtainThe Goal of the Campaign for the Silicon Curtain community:- 1 armoured battle-ready pickupWe are sourcing all vehicles around 2010-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced.

Welcome to episode 313 of Grow Your Law Firm, hosted by Ken Hardison. In this episode, Ken sits down with Eric Sanchez and Stacie Monahan of Maestro Strategic Partners for a practical conversation about what it really takes to scale a law firm without breaking the business. They dig into the role of a true second-in-command and executive team, why "yes people" and echo chambers quietly stall growth, and how firms have to re-engineer systems as they move from a small shop to a larger operation. Eric and Stacie also share what they're seeing in the market around technology and AI adoption, and why execution, culture, and strong middle management become non-negotiable as headcount and complexity rise. What you'll learn about in this episode: Why law firm growth requires "second-in-command" leadership - How strong executive teams unlock the owner's highest-value work - Why avoiding "yes people" prevents echo chambers and stalled success Scaling changes everything - Why what worked at 30 people breaks at 70, 100, and beyond - How intake and operations must be re-engineered as volume increases What Maestro Strategic Partners actually does - Fractional leadership, advisory support, and vendor selection guidance - Helping firms cut through "AI snake oil" and adopt tech that fits The real issue with "lifers" and blockers - Why longevity isn't the same thing as loyalty - Options: restructure, scaffold, isolate, or part ways to protect culture Culture and execution as competitive advantages - Why execution beats ideas and values help make hard calls fast - How technology is becoming mandatory for survival, not just growth Resources: Website: mstratpartners.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/maestro-strategic-partners Facebook: facebook.com/maestrostrategic Book: amazon.com/Invested-Leadership-Empower-Your-Heart/dp/1544547218 Additional Resources: https://www.pilmma.org/the-mastermind-effect https://www.pilmma.org/resources https://www.pilmma.org/mastermind https://calendly.com/jenna-pilmma/strategy-session-with-pilmma AI for PI Expo: www.pilmma.org/ai-for-pi-expo
The Free Outside Show is back for the new year, and I'm joined by our correspondent on everything, Allison Mercer. We're doing the exact opposite of the usual “five months from now” preview content that other podcasts are doing, and instead talking about what's actually happening this weekend: Bandera (with Molly Seidel), Houston Marathon for the OTQ watch, and why you should care about World Cross Country in Tallahassee (yes, it's watchable on Peacock, yes, team tactics make it way more fun than you think, and yes, there are statue alligators on the course).From there, we get into the real chaos: Burrito League expansion, why it works as an “anyone can play” running challenge, and how these community-wide games can be more accessible than the typical big-race ecosystem. Then we go full rant mode on year-end lists, award season fatigue, media bias, and why FKT stories often get misunderstood or flattened by outlets that do not actually live in that world. We also touch on sponsorship transparency, influencer economics, West Coast bias, and why the sport would be better off funding real coverage of barrier-breaking performances instead of paying for interchangeable promo codes. New year, same old us. Racing is back, and we have thoughts.Chapters00:00 Racing Resumes: Exciting Events Ahead05:30 The Thrill of Cross Country Championships08:38 Understanding Cross Country Scoring and Team Dynamics10:46 The Burrito League: A Unique Running Challenge13:42 The Influence of Social Media on Running Culture16:43 The Bias in Trail Running Media and Awards19:49 The Importance of FKTs in the Running Community22:40 The East vs. West Coast Debate in Trail Running25:48 The Shift in Sponsorships and Influencer Culture28:43 The Future of Trail Running Events and Coverage31:44 World Championships and the Impact of Air Quality35:34 Looking Ahead: Goals for 2026Support our Sponsors: Janji (code: Freeoutside): https://snp.link/a0bfb726CS Coffee: CSinstant.coffeeGarage Grown Gear: https://snp.link/db1ba8abSawyer Products: https://sawyerdirect.net/collections/stay-put-sunblock#RunningMedia #trailrunning #ultrarunning #runningpodcast #WorldCrossCountry #crosscountryrunning #BurritoLeague #fkt #runningcommunity #sportsmedia Subscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside
OIN OUR FACEBOOK GROUP: / 1bmudi9htk In 2025, two forces are colliding fast: AI and blue-collar trades.In this episode, Chris Lee sits down with the team from Callsource to unpack what's actually happening when home service companies replace CSRs with AI voice/text bots — and why it can quietly destroy trust, create missed revenue, and damage your brand even when the phones are ringing.They break down real call data (including thousands of inbound calls handled by AI), the hidden “zero outcome” problem, incorrect dispositions inside the CRM, and why most owners don't realize the damage until conversion drops and the backlog tightens. Then they get practical: what a hybrid AI + human model looks like, how to build a manual process first (even if it starts in a spreadsheet), and how fast follow-up and human empathy can recover deals your competitors would've taken.If you run a plumbing, HVAC, electrical, or other home service business and you're considering AI for inbound calls, this is the episode you need before you flip that switch.CONNECT WITH ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA!TEXT ME: 509-905-4109INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/chrisleeqb/...FACEBOOK: / chrisleeqb TIKTOK: / uc6m5_nuhcx-jdtyb4ge8giq Partner Spotlight: 1SEO Digital Agency: At Next Level Pros, we teach you the best ways HOW to market your business.

Stuck in the same gear? Not happy with your race speed? It might mean you need more work on being responsive. How do you build another gear? Glad you asked. Today, we get into why triathletes often feel stuck at the same speed and how to break the cycle. We look at swimming, biking, and running and give some thought on how to create more of a range, especially when you need it. Going fast can feel good and fun, but sometimes our Zone 4 effort equals our Zone 2 speed in a race. Today, we look at solid and proven ways to break out of being a one-speed wonder, but note, it's not always easy.

I did this one from the 66th floor Alle Lounge at Resorts World Las Vegas, with Shannon McCallum, VP of Hotel Operations, about how the property continues evolving four-plus years after opening. Resorts World operates more than 3,500 rooms across three brands -- Hilton, Conrad, and Crockfords -- all under one roof. That scale forces real decisions about technology, guest choice, and efficiency — especially when different guests expect very different experiences. Shannon walks through how the team thinks about:

We talk about collectibles as a marketing strategy, why most businesses are underinvesting in social media, and the massive advantage of social media ads over traditional TV. I also dive into the opportunity in live streaming, the rise of the interest media era, which platforms have underpriced attention right now, and why hiring is guessing while firing is knowing.

Today's Sponsor: ToyBox 3D Printers Have you ever said, “I don't know what happened — I just snapped”?In today's episode of Dad Tired Daily, Jerrad explores why men don't actually go from calm to out of control in an instant — even though it feels that way. Using a simple (and memorable) analogy about teleportation and flying cars, this episode explains how stress builds gradually in the nervous system long before a blowup ever happens.This episode is about learning to notice the early warning signs — the off-ramps — so you can tend your inner world before frustration spills onto the people you love most.This is daily inner hygiene — small, practical awareness that helps men lead with steadiness instead of reaction.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy the nervous system doesn't jump from “zero to 100”How stress and anger actually escalate in stagesThe physical and emotional warning signs most men missWhy reactions often feel sudden — even when they aren'tHow Scripture calls men to tend and guard their inner worldOne simple daily practice to reduce reactivity at home and workScripture ReferencedProverbs 4:23 (ESV)“Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.”Today's Inner Hygiene PracticeBefore transitioning from one part of your day to another —car → workwork → meetingdriveway → homePause for one minute and ask yourself:“What am I feeling right now?”Name it without fixing it:tiredirritatedoverwhelmedanxioushungrytenseResearch shows that simply naming an emotion helps reduce its intensity and brings clarity back online.

“Do you know what a mayor actually does?” That simple question sparks one of the funniest and most revealing conversations on The Ben and Skin Show with Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray.In this episode, the crew dives into the latest blow to Dallas: AT&T's shocking decision to move its headquarters to Plano—just after a $100 million renovation downtown. What does this mean for the city's future? And is Mayor Eric Johnson to blame? The gang hilariously debates the role of a mayor, with KT dropping the line of the day: “Usually it's a pretty good guitar player that gets a lot of girls.” (Spoiler: That's a John Mayer joke, not city politics.)But the laughs don't stop there. From wild real estate revelations about Ray Washburn to a jaw-dropping stat on Sears stores still standing, the conversation spirals into nostalgia, absurdity, and pure comedy gold. Ben and Skin even revisit the legendary Sears catalog. This episode is a perfect mix of sharp local insight, business intrigue, and the kind of off-the-rails humor that makes The Ben and Skin Show a must-listen.

Today's episode "When the Strategies Aren't Enough: Teaching ELs without Losing Yourself," is a reintroduction to The ESL Teaching Podcast, marking a new season of growth and transformation.Here are a few key ideas you'll here: A Personal Break and Burnout: I am sharing why I stepped away from the podcast for several months (July through December 2025) - to recover from complete burnout from teaching, over-giving, and grieving the loss of a loved one. This break prompted a necessary pause and a shift in perspective.The 'Inner Classroom': We are shifting focus from solely teaching strategies and lesson plans to the internal state of the teacher, which I call the "inner classroom." The argument is that no external strategy will be enough if the teacher's inner state is chaotic, exhausted, or depleted.The Podcast's New Direction: The podcast will continue to cover practical EL teaching strategies, scaffolding, and effective instruction, but it will also become a "bridge between pedagogy and self-preservation." Topics will expand to include:Teacher energy and boundaries.Sustainability in teaching.Coaching (professional and personal).Acknowledging teaching as emotional, relational, and human work.Invitation and Free Resource: I am inviting you to stay, subscribe, and be part of a space where you don't have to pretend you are fine.

Winning is easy to celebrate. Losing is where character shows up. How you handle defeat determines whether you are a contender or just passing time. Show Notes In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor dives into a moment from the college football playoffs that had nothing to do with a win and everything to do with mindset. After Ole Miss upset Georgia, Baylor noticed something powerful in the postgame moment. Kirby Smart, head coach of the losing team, did not sulk, blame, or deflect. Instead, he walked over, smiled, and genuinely congratulated the opposing coach. That moment revealed what real excellence looks like. Baylor breaks down why wins rarely teach us much. Victories feel good, but they do not expose who we really are. Losses do. Defeat reveals humility, emotional maturity, and confidence or the lack of it. This episode challenges listeners to reflect on how they personally handle losses. Arguments. Missed opportunities. Promotions that go to someone else. Deals that fall through. Not getting chosen. Baylor asks the hard question. Do you need the last word, or can you walk away with dignity? He explains the difference between people who lose occasionally and people who are experts at losing. Career losers blame, deflect, and spiral. Winners acknowledge the moment, respect the opponent, learn the lesson, and get back to work. Baylor also explores the importance of celebrating others even when it is not your season. A true winner knows their time will come again. That confidence allows them to cheer loudly for someone else without jealousy or insecurity. The episode closes with a powerful reminder. Seasons change. Some days you will be the best in the room. Other days, someone else will be. Champions do not panic when it is not their moment. They study, adjust, and prepare to win the next one. What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why losses reveal more about character than wins • How humility in defeat signals true confidence • The difference between occasional failure and a losing mindset • Why celebrating others is a marker of leadership • How to respond when it is not your season • Why champions focus forward instead of blaming backward Featured Quote "You don't learn much from winning. You learn everything from how you handle losing." If 2026 does not start the way you hoped, do not panic. Handle defeat with class, learn the lesson, and get back to work. Champions always find a way to win the next one.

Welcome to this week's episode of Motivational Moments with Maria. This day 6 years ago I took a giant leap of faith. I stepped down from a Coaching Position I loved to branch out on my own and it was the best thing I could have done for myself and the clients I serve.I was scared, I was worried and I know one thing…when I make a commitment to do something, I will make it happen. I follow the framework I developed for myself and today seems like the perfect time to share it with you. It's a New Year and I want you to navigate your next chapter with confidence and courage. Welcome to the 6 Cs of Your Personal Shift: Navigating Your Next Chapter with Confidence and Courage. I'm so glad you're here.In today's episode you'll get a practical, compassionate framework—the 6 Cs—to move from stuck to in motion, and a clear next step to keep your momentum going after we finish.Let's discuss why you are here and why you listen in to these podcasts or for that matter any podcast on personal development. Naming what's going on for you reduces shame and increases choice.I hear these quite a bit so if it resonates with you, then you have tuned in to the right channel:1.Feeling stuck and unsure what comes next. You know you want a change, but you're not sure of the direction, the steps, or how to start. That's normal—and it's the biggest driver for seeking guidance2.Losing confidence in yourself and your decisions. Maybe you've felt disconnected from your inner strength and want to trust your voice again.3.Feeling disconnected from purpose or a meaningful “why.” You crave alignment—something that feels exciting, grounded, intentional.4.You are a lifelong learner and know that personal growth is a way of life.If any of these resonate, you're where you need to be. And answer this, what gets in your way?•Overwhelm from trying to manage everything alone. Life is heavy: responsibilities, expectations, emotions. You don't need more pressure—you need structure and support.•Lack of consistency and accountability. You start motivated, but momentum fades without a system and a community.Here's a truth: people don't plug into personal development and coaching for information—they buy it for consistency because Consistency turns intention into results.Today I'll walk you through six anchors for sustainable change: Commitment, Courage, Consistency, Confidence, Challenge, and Candor.These words have helped me over the years stay on track in my life and they are visible to me every day. Listen in for insights on the 6 Cs to success. Stay focused, stay positive and always have fun.Coach Maria

Original air date: October 6, 2025 Things are not okay in the White House. Numerous new national polls show President Trump and the GOP taking far more blame for the government shutdown than Democrats. One polling analyst flatly declared that the gap has reached double digits. Meanwhile, at a media briefing, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt twice lost her temper under tough questioning. Notably, what angered her was the spectacle of reporters punching holes in the leading White House arguments in the shutdown standoff. Why is this happening, given that many pundits predicted Democrats are in the weaker position? We talked to Salon's Amanda Marcotte, a sharp observer of MAGA follies. She explains why the Trump-GOP talking points are failing, why Democrats have fresh incentives to hold firm, and what all this reveals about the deepening fissures in the Trump coalition.
