A holiday-flavored Friday Q&A that covers a lot of ground without selling a single candy cane. Don answers listener questions on Medicare vs. Medicare Advantage (and the IRMAA buzzsaw), how to safely reposition an elderly parent's taxable account, whether to ditch target-date funds for a DIY equity portfolio, how to think about international small-cap ETFs, why teaching kids to pick stocks is a terrible idea, and what to expect when a “free portfolio review” comes from a company whose name literally includes the word annuity.

In this episode we speak about "landing on our feet". In particular, we relate this to the double empathy problem whereby the processes "behind the scenes" are often missed entirely in our interactions with non-autistic people. We share examples of our experiences in the workplace and significant relationships, noting that in some aspects our ways of being can seem to collude with the apparent opacity of the bigger picture. As Siana says, "We prioritise getting shit done rather than going on about how difficult it is!" In this context we are not referring to the often variable amounts of things we get done or the speed or efficiency of this - that's a whole other issue! Instead we are pointing out that we tend to focus what energy we have on tasks rather than ensuring others understand how hard it is.  Although we name feeling uncomfortable with it, we also experiment with taking our capabilities and resourcefulness more seriously by not underplaying our contributions. This is new and the reason we haven't edited it out is an experiment in daring to let it hit the air and stay there! Which feels like a courageous act of resistance when you've spent a lifetime playing yourself down. We believe a version of this might resonate with a great many of our neurokin. As ever, we are available and keen to hear from you with any comments, reflections or feedback. Contact us at: autisticlicence@gmail.com

This episode of Tri Beginner's Luck invites listeners into a vibrant and deeply personal conversation with Pastor Mark Batterson, lead visionary of National Community Church and New York Times bestselling author. His journey from college basketball player to spiritual leader reveals a life shaped by courage, consistency, and the willingness to try again and again. With warmth and humility, Pastor Mark shares how endurance sports became a classroom for his soul, teaching him discipline through marathon miles, perseverance through ocean waves, and the quiet resilience that grows when no one is watching.   From running the Chicago Marathon with lungs that once held him back to taking on triathlons alongside his teenage son, Pastor Mark reflects on how movement has become both a metaphor and a mentor. He describes how training helped him push past self-doubt, lean into long-term goals, and understand the deep truth behind his current book, “Gradually Then Suddenly.” Progress rarely shows up as a single moment. It builds slowly, faithfully, almost silently, until the breakthrough appears.   Pastor Mark explores the power of relationships, the joy of shared miles, and the unexpected strength that emerges when you stay committed to the process. He shares openly about leadership, creativity, writing, family, and the spiritual confidence that grows when you embrace the work no one sees. It is a conversation filled with laughter, honesty, and a true celebration of what it means to live life with intention, gratitude, and heart.   Whether you are training for your first triathlon or stepping into a new season of life, this episode will encourage you to trust your pace, honor your progress, and remember that every meaningful journey starts with one small, courageous yes.   Let's Tri This!   Remember to leave a review, share it with your friends, and follow Tri Beginner's luck on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.  And send any questions or feedback you have to  tblpodbiz@tribeginnersluck.com.

Today's NPC Prompts were:Comedy Theme, Halfling, Toymaker, Performer, Chaotic Neutral, Luck, Smol and Strong, Only Trusts Tall FolksThe North Pole is a charming town, full of wonder and  folks who work hard to make toys for the children of the world. And while Candice is a competent toymaker, she has an idea to bring cheer in a different way. There is a new carol that Candice is writing, but her job in the workshop is taking all of her energy away from her creative pursuits. Since Mr. and Mrs. Claus seem to be the only ones concerned with the work/ life balance of the halflings and elves in their employ, Candice doesn't much care for anyone who is under 5 feet tall, figuring that the height gives them a better perspective than her co-workers. Want to make a suggestion?

What does it really mean to be financially free as a woman? Not just secure—but serene. Confident. Fully yourself.In the powerful conversation, I sit down with Christine Joy Luck Sarno, a financial coach and speaker known as the Financial Wingwoman. A former financial advisor, she now helps high-earning women take control of their money with clarity and confidence. Having built multiple seven-figure wealth as a single mom and financial head of household, she blends practical strategy with lived experience and humor. She guides women to cut through confusion, overcome money anxiety, and build wealth that supports the life they want. Christine believes that when women grow and protect their wealth, they gain personal freedom and the power to create lasting impact in their families, communities, and the world.What makes Christine different—and why this episode felt so personal—is that she's not here to hand you a checklist of books to read or give you the usual financial tips. She really gets women's lives—the challenges we face, what actually supports us, and how to create real well-being in every area.In this episode, you'll discover:The financial problems women are facingThe wealth myths keeping women playing small—and what to focus on instead (hint: it's not lattes)Practical steps to build financial literacy The ripple effects of the gender wage gap, and the most powerful equalizer we have against itWhat a wealth ecosystem is and how to start building yoursWhy financial sovereignty is a joyful, deeply feminine act of self-care (which in turn is one of the most powerful ways to create impact in the world)Why financial serenity matters more than financial securityThis conversation reminds us that financial empowerment isn't just personal—it's relational, communal, and transformational. When you trust yourself with money, you create:✨ Ease in navigating life's unexpected turns—which means you can show up more fully for others ✨ Joy in knowing you have choices aligned with your values—which radiates to everyone around you ✨ Impact in your own life and rippling outward to your family, your workplace, your community, and beyond ✨ Self-trust in your ability to care for yourself fully—which gives others permission to do the same

Stanford educator and renowned creativity expert Tina Seelig joins Richard Lucas on the New Books Network's Entrepreneurship & Leadership channel to discuss her new book What I Wish I Knew About Luck (coming April 2026). As the host found himself agreeing with everything Tina said, he asked for examples of people who disagreed with her. First, they discussed the value of respectful disagreement, and the fact that Richard's father, the late Oxford philosopher JR Lucas routinely took the opportunity to disagree with his son, no matter what point of view was being put forward. Tina shared that her father, aged 99, still thinks that good things just happened to him over the course of his life, whereas she outlines all the actions he took to create that good luck. Tina dismantles the myth that luck is purely random. She distinguishes fortune (things that happen to you) from luck (something you can actively cultivate), and explains why clichés such as “the harder I work, the luckier I get” or “fortune favors the prepared mind” are true but incomplete. What is the “hard work” required to create luck? What exactly is a “prepared mind”? Key highlights: Why entrepreneurship and creativity are teachable skills that everyone can improve, just like sports, music, art, math, or science. The value of keeping a “failure résumé” and viewing failure as a trampoline rather than a lava pit. Real stories of ethical dilemmas early and late in her career. Full details in the book and podcast. Why showing genuine appreciation (especially thank-you notes) is one of the highest-ROI habits for creating luck. A thank you note she wrote was read out at a funeral 20 years later. How to build trust, have difficult conversations, and surround yourself with the right “crew” The foundational role of self-awareness, values, resilience, risk-taking, and patience in manufacturing your own luck Tina also shares the inspiring origin of the Knight-Hennessy Scholars program (co-founded by John Hennessy, former Stanford President, and Phil Knight, founder of Nike) and reflects on teaching leadership to some of the world's most promising graduate students across all disciplines at Stanford University.

Stanford educator and renowned creativity expert Tina Seelig joins Richard Lucas on the New Books Network's Entrepreneurship & Leadership channel to discuss her new book What I Wish I Knew About Luck (coming April 2026). As the host found himself agreeing with everything Tina said, he asked for examples of people who disagreed with her. First, they discussed the value of respectful disagreement, and the fact that Richard's father, the late Oxford philosopher JR Lucas routinely took the opportunity to disagree with his son, no matter what point of view was being put forward. Tina shared that her father, aged 99, still thinks that good things just happened to him over the course of his life, whereas she outlines all the actions he took to create that good luck. Tina dismantles the myth that luck is purely random. She distinguishes fortune (things that happen to you) from luck (something you can actively cultivate), and explains why clichés such as “the harder I work, the luckier I get” or “fortune favors the prepared mind” are true but incomplete.

It was at the point that Crystal Palace announced their line-up at Fulham that James knew his luck was in. With Daniel Munoz absent from The Eagles squad with a knee injury, James was able to bank Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's 16 points and laugh about some brilliant bench jam. And it was just as well because it was a painful week otherwise! Luck or skill? You need a bit of both in this game. Suj joins James for a review of all the weekend games as Aston Villa beat Arsenal late, it was a late win for Palace too at Fulham and West Ham also lost a late lead at Brighton. There was late carnage to at Elland Road as Liverpool blew a comfortable lead, but it was events after the game and Mo Salah's interview that may prove even more damaging for The Reds. FPL managers now have 5 free transfers at their disposal and both Suj and James have gone early with one move, but will the other moves be made or can transfers be banked? Most is seems, will be making aggressive moves. But are there even 3 good forwards in the game!?

Enjoy Nate's interview on Martens Minute! GML will return this week.  Nate Thurston, co-host of the Good Morning Liberty podcast and former guitarist for the band Darling Parade, joins me to share his powerful journey through alcoholism and recovery. He opens up about his struggles with alcohol and addiction as a touring musician, and how his alcoholism spiraled out of control as his music career came to an end, nearly costing him his life. With the support of his wife, Nate confronted his addiction, quit drinking, and rebuilt his life. Now seven years sober, he enjoys a happy marriage, hosts a successful podcast, and is a respected figure in the liberty community. His advice to those struggling with addiction: You don't have to commit to quitting forever today—that can feel overwhelming. Instead, choose each morning to stay sober for that day. Find meaning in your life, channel it into a passion, and pursue it with purpose.   00:00 Intro 03:08 The Start of Nate's Music Journey 06:26 Alcoholism and the Music Industry 12:01 Struggles with Success and Addiction 24:40 Hitting Rock Bottom 42:02 Reflecting on Past Mistakes and Luck 44:26 Finding Meaning in Everyday Work 47:28 The Turning Point: Admitting the Problem 49:13 Support Systems and Personal Responsibility 54:22 Overcoming Social Anxiety and Alcohol Triggers 01:03:26 Rebuilding Life with New Goals 01:14:06 Advice for Those Hitting Rock Bottom

In East Asian metaphysics, the face is a map of destiny—your timeline, your virtues, your earned wisdom. So what happens when lip flips, filler touch-ups, and subtle sculpting shift the terrain? We unpack how micro-procedures can enhance confidence while also potentially muting the markers of lived experience that cultivate respect, authority, and relationship Qi.

This episode brings together Vinney Chopra and Gualter Amarelo for a grounded and motivating conversation about the true engine of wealth: consistency. From family moments to daily routines, Vinney shares openly about the small, steady habits—like walking every day, learning constantly, and teaching what he knows—that shaped his entire career. Before he wrote books, bought hotels, or raised millions, he simply showed up consistently.   Throughout the discussion, they unpack why consistency outperforms raw talent or inspiration every time. Using real examples from business, investing, and personal growth, they make the message clear: if you're scattered, you can't compound.

For Ming Min Hui, there's no single "right" path to arts leadership—only the one you build through curiosity, courage, and a willingness to evolve. Her career began far from the stage, in finance and corporate strategy on Wall Street. Today, as Executive Director of Boston Ballet, she sees that wide-ranging experience not as a detour but as the engine behind her leadership. In this episode, Ming reflects on the value of expansive career paths, the power of collaborative problem-solving, and how she uses her business acumen to deepen the relevance of a 400-year-old art form in Boston and beyond.

Today on Too Opinionated we visit with actor W. Earl Brown.  Wes Craven was an early supporter, casting Earl in New Nightmare, A Vampire in Brooklyn and the role of "Kenny" in the classic, Scream. Two years after the success of Scream, Earl played "Warren", Cameron Diaz's mentally challenged brother, in There's Something About Mary. Among his many other film credits are the highly regarded films: Being John Malkovich, The Master, The Sessions , Wild , Black Mass, and the Netflix hits - The Highwaymen and The Unforgivable. On television, Earl has guest starred in many series, including: The Mandalorian, Luck, Seinfeld, Hacks, Yellowstone, American Horror Story, Justified, X-Files, Six Feet Under, and NYPD Blue. Among the TV movies he has been involved with, was the starring role in VH1's Meatloaf: To Hell and Back. He played "Tom Carlin" in ABC's highly acclaimed anthology series American Crime (2015) and "Teague Dixon" in HBO's True Detective. He is probably best known as "Dan Dority" in HBO's Deadwood. During that series' second season, the show's creator, David Milch, invited him to join the writing staff. In 2007, Earl earned a WGA nomination for writing on a drama series and a SAG nomination for best drama ensemble acting. Establishing himself on a show as critically lauded as Deadwood opened doors for other writing projects, including the Sony release, Bloodworth, which Earl wrote and produced. Earl can currently be seen as Wes Fox on Sheriff Country. In addition to his television and film work, Earl co-starred in Sony's The Last Of Us, 2013 Video Game Of The Year. He also writes music and records with Sacred Cowboys, an LA based Americana band. In 2018, he combined his love of music and film by co-creating the short film, Dad Band, which racked up 1.3 million views on YouTube.

In this episode of Ambition 2.0, host Amanda Goetz sits down with Erika Ayers Badan, former CEO of Barstool Sports, current CEO of Food52, bestselling author of Nobody Cares About Your Career, and all-around master of building a career entirely on her own terms.  Erika shows us the real mechanics of career growth: why nobody is coming to save you, how to make your own luck, why “random” career paths are often the most powerful, and the mindset shifts that separate fulfilled professionals from stuck ones.  She also shares candid stories from her time leading one of the most controversial (and successful) media companies in the world, what she's learned about managing men and underdogs, how to stay emotionally regulated at work, and why she advocates for not bringing your whole self to work (compartmentalization can actually enhance your authenticity).  Erika shares her thoughts on:  Your career is only for you—not for LinkedIn, not for your resume, and not for anyone else's approval. Luck is made, not given: initiative, shameless asking, and momentum matter more than pedigree in the early stages of your career. Every job, even the terrible or random ones, contains a skill or lesson you'll use later. Emotional regulation and compartmentalization are leadership superpowers, not repression. You don't have to be the “alpha” to lead; service, empowerment, and clarity are often more effective. A great boss can change your entire career trajectory—interview them as much as they interview you. You'll also hear Erika's framework for avoiding energy vampires, deciding which “thankless” tasks are worth it, building a personal board of directors, and creating momentum at any stage of your career—from your second job to the C-suite. 00:00 Intro 03:50 The biggest misconception about career progression 09:23 Surviving bad startups and getting the most out of them 14:20 Making your own luck and the power of asking for help 16:36 Personal boards and shameless asks  20:41 How junior employees can stand out and create momentum 23:37 Leading in a male-dominated culture without being the alpha 32:33 Compartmentalization, authenticity, and emotional regulation at work 39:47 Energy vampires, thankless tasks, and protecting your focus 42:37 How to pick a boss and read interviews differently 45:53 Erika's work at Food52 and Work Life A Girl, and the power of building community 49:15 Rapid-fire questions and Erika's non-negotiables at work GUEST LINKS Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/erika/ & https://www.instagram.com/workwitherika/  Connect with Erika: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erikanardini/  Subscribe to her Substack: https://erikaayersbadan.substack.com/  Listen to her podcast, Work: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/work-with-erika-ayers-badan/id1503065691  Join Work Like a Girl: https://www.worklikeagirl.com/  FOLLOW THE PODCAST IG: https://www.instagram.com/girlboss/ | TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@girlboss  Amanda Goetz: https://www.instagram.com/theamandagoetz/  https://girlboss.com/pages/ambition-2-0-podcast  SIGN UP Subscribe to the Girlboss Daily newsletter: https://newsletter.girlboss.com/  For all other Girlboss links: https://linkin.bio/girlboss/  ABOUT AMBITION 2.0 Powered by Girlboss, Ambition 2.0 is a podcast where we'll be exploring what it really means to “have it all” in work, family, identity, and self… and if it's actually worth it.

In a week where the talk of the sports world will be who gets the best draw in the FIFA World Cup (which we discuss) and the College Football Playoff, the NBA Cup is still trying to find its own footing as the knockout rounds are set. Adam Murray and Andrew Riche, THE NBA-Team, are back together after traveling the world (or, at least, one of them did) to play catch-up on the last couple weeks of the regular season. Are the Raptors and Pistons for real and the Knicks and Cavaliers are just happy to play the tortoises to their hares? Is it too early to declare that the geriatric L.A. Clippers' season is already dead on its feet? Is it possible for the Chicago Bulls to trade their best scoring guard and become a better team in the process? Riche and Adam also discuss the long-term dominance of the Thunder, the joyful transformation of the Miami Heat offense, soft tissue injuries, Lane Kiffin to LSU, and more! So suit up and take it out in episode 369 with the NBA-Team!

Micah Rosenbloom is a Managing Partner at Founder Collective, a firm dedicated to seed investing and, crucially, to keeping their fund sizes below $100 million. Micah talks with Beezer Clarkson, Partner at Sapphire Partners, and Nick Chirls, Partner at Asylum Ventures, to discuss Founder Collective's philosophy of keeping their fund size small to avoid the “billions or bust” mentality, how most investors have a bad track record of spotting trends at seed, and how consumer goods are still worthwhile investments even against the backdrop of AI. They also debate a recent post from Nick to get to the fundamental question of whether investors taking big risks are courageous or lucky.Learn more about Sapphire Partners: sapphireventures.com/sapphire-partnersLearn more about OpenLP: openlp.vcLearn more about Asylum Ventures: asylum.vcLearn more about Founder Collective: foundercollective.comFor a monthly roundup of the latest venture insights, including the newest Origins episodes, subscribe to the OpenLP newsletter – delivered straight to your inbox: subscribe.openlp.vcCHAPTERS:0:00 Welcome to Origins2:16 What Can Small Do For You?8:57-A Whole Team of Ex Operators14:52 How Micah's View of the Market Has Changed18:48-Why the Market's Tough Right Now21:49 Early Stage VCs Are Usually Seven Years Too Late30:14 Investing: Courage or Luck?42:59-Predictions for 2026

Send us a textIn this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors., I unpack the myth of luck and why waiting for your “big break” is often just a clever form of hiding. Inspired by the story behind the viral Bernie Sanders mitten photo, I explore the two mindsets that show up in moments of opportunity: the entrepreneurial brain and the employee brain. I break down why success isn't about privilege or chance. It's about recognizing opportunity when it knocks and having the courage to say yes. I talk about what it really means to put yourself in luck's way, why discomfort is often the path to your next level, and how to stop asking “Why is this happening to me?” and start asking “Why is this happening for me?”If this content and material resonates with you and you would like to pursue coaching with Rebecca, please visit:tcm-hub.com/fed and schedule a Breakthrough Call.

In Part 2 of this epic episode of the Mike Drop Podcast, host Mike Ritland continues his deep-dive conversation with Dave Berke – the only Marine to ever fly the F-22 Raptor and a legendary Topgun instructor. This episode is packed with raw, unfiltered stories from the skies and the streets of Ramadi. Dave breaks down why fifth-generation fighters (F-22 and F-35) dominate not through speed or maneuverability, but through total battlespace awareness – “If I know everything you're doing and you have no idea I'm even there, I've already won.” He shares unforgettable combat moments with Jocko Willink's Task Unit Bruiser, including riverine boat insertions with Chris Kyle, calling in a Hellfire missile through a second-story window to save SEALs under fire, and the emotional weight of losing Marines on the ground. From feeling like a “fish out of water” running with SEALs in Ramadi to the humbling transition into the F-22 cockpit, Dave reflects on luck, leadership, ego, and the real cost of the Iraq War. Whether you're a military aviation geek, a combat veteran, or just love real stories of extreme performance, this episode delivers powerful lessons on teamwork, situational awareness, and what it truly takes to dominate in chaos.
