After listening to this very personal episode, you will KNOW more about the importance of, not just finding, but understanding joy. For more than 30 years, Bob Burg has been successfully showing entrepreneurs, leaders, and sales professionals how to build relationships, communicate their value, and accelerate their business growth. Although for years he was best known for his sales classic, "Endless Referrals," it's his business parable, "The Go-Giver," co-authored with John David Mann, that has created a worldwide movement. While part of a four-book series, "The Go-Giver" itself has sold well over a million copies and been translated into 30 languages. It was rated #10 on Inc. Magazine's list of The Most Motivational Books Ever Written, and was on HubSpot's 20 Most Highly Rated Sales Books of All Time. Bob is creator of The Go-Giver Academy online learning portal featuring The Go-Giver® Success Vault, which includes all of his online courses as well as additional business-building resources. He also publishes the very popular Daily Impact email. Both of these can be accessed at his website, which is www.burg.com  Bob is an advocate, supporter, and defender of the Free Enterprise system, believing that the amount of money one makes is directly proportional to how many people they serve. He is also an unapologetic animal fanatic and serves as part of a South Florida rescue, foster, and adoption organization. Podcast Highlights: Randy complains about technology and Bob and Randy sing to each other Bob describes the Go-Giver movement (book series) Randy shares personal reasons why the Go-Giver movement is important to him Bob and Randy identify similarities in their platforms and writing styles Bob and Randy talk about the importance of knowing what gives you joy Bob and Randy talk about what happens when you lose your way on life's path Bob describes the genesis of the Go-Giver movement Bob discusses having a well-developed sense of empathy Bob shares the real reason people choose to go into business Bob shares his passion for animals Bob shares what he KNOWS Best Quotes: Bob Burg: "What I know is that I don't know nearly as much as I think I know." Bob Burg: "Make your win all about the other person's win." Bob Burg & John David Mann: "When you're not sure what you want, look at what you have that you love that gives you joy. Chances are excellent what you want is more of that." Randall Kenneth Jones: "The 'great thing' I do is just listen to what other people do. It's so simple. I just go out and look for people who are doing something meaningful and it makes me feel good that I get to share that with other people." Bob Burg & John David Mann: "Everyone of us is a superhero. Everyone. It's how we're designed. Most of us don't realize it." Randall Kenneth Jones: "My superpower is just that I give a shit." Bob Burg: "If you take the word rationalize and break it in two, it simply means we tell ourselves 'rational lies.'" Bob Burg: "Just make sure that you're the master of your emotions as opposed to your emotions being the master of you."

Rogers for America with Lt. Steve Rogers – Regrettably, many young people today are not receiving positive influences or learning about the beneficial values introduced by figures such as Jesus Christ, as well as notable national leaders like George Washington, John Adams, and Abraham Lincoln. This absence of exposure is concerning, particularly when it originates from a lack of guidance from parents...

If today were your last day, how would you live it? Pastor James Biddle challenges you to stop drifting through life and start living every day with intentional purpose, contagious passion, eternal perspective, and awareness of God's presence. Through the story of Queen Esther and practical daily choices—like adding value to people, serving others, connecting with family, and giving something away—discover how your daily decisions become doorways to your future destiny. Learn why Christianity takes on new meaning when you stop focusing on yourself and start investing in others, understanding that the most important thing to God is souls because souls count. Will the things you're living for today be worth Jesus dying for, and in 50 years, who will remember you not for your charisma, but for how your faith in Christ impacted their life?

The Portage church of Christ is a group of pre-denominational Christians that are striving to serve the Lord together. Our goal is to please God, and we believe that the best way to do that is to follow the pattern that was established by the churches in the first century and revealed in the New Testament. We have no creed or doctrine except the Bible and we follow the Bible only. We strive for unity in the teaching of New Testament doctrine. Our congregation is not part of, or subject to, any larger man-made religious organization. We are a completely autonomous congregation. We are locally governed, just as the church in the first century was. How does one becomes a member of this church congregation? The exact same way as seen in the Biblical accounts. On the day of Pentecost following Jesus' resurrection, people who repented and were baptized were saved (Acts 2:38) and the saved were added to the church (Acts 2:47). These saved people were members of the body, or church (Colossians 1:18). To become a Christian, the Bible teaches: Hear the gospel (Rom. 10:17) Believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God (John 8:24, 58, Heb. 11:6) Repent of past sins (Luke 13:3, 5) Confess Jesus as Lord (Matt. 10:32-33, Rom. 10:9-10) Be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38, Mark 16:16) Remain Faithful to Christ (Rev. 2:10, 2 Tim 4:7-8)

I've been in sales before.  For 10 years, I worked in Christian retail.  I actually worked at a Christian bookstore inside of a church.  Every day I had to manage employees, manage stock, keep track of sales, and please the people that owned the store.  I loved selling people things they needed.  I sold lots of Bibles.  I sold lots of books.  I sold lots of gifts.  I sold a lot of music.  I saw the joy of matching the right product with the right customer.  I knew I wasn't just a salesperson.  I knew I wasn't just a bookstore manager.  I knew that I was in full-time ministry in a Christian bookstore.  I knew that what I did every day was making a difference.  Imagine a world where all the salespeople quit to go into full-time ministry.  That's not a world I want to live in. 

You want to build something that actually changes lives, and you also need it to pay the bills. You have felt the pressure to choose one or the other, purpose or profit, when what you really want is both. This episode is for you if you are wrestling with questions like how do I fund my mission, how do I prove my impact, and how do I scale without losing the heart of why I started.   In this conversation, you will learn from Jasmine Crowe-Houston, award winning social entrepreneur and founder and CEO of Goodr. Jasmine has built a technology powered company that has redirected more than 25 million pounds of food and delivered nearly 40 million meals by connecting surplus to need, and she has opened dozens of free Goodr Grocery Stores that bring dignified, affordable access to healthy food. She breaks down the real story behind making money while making a difference, from pricing and partnerships to data and mindset, and she is refreshingly honest about what it takes for Black founders to build and sustain social impact at scale.   DURING THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: How to choose a problem worth solving and translate it into a clear, fundable business model Ways to price a social enterprise by mapping your customer's current spend and proving cost savings What metrics to track so you can show both social outcomes and business results How to approach investors versus foundations and what to emphasize with each audience Practical strategies to scale impact while staying rooted in community and mission Mindset habits that help you push through rejection, protect your energy, and lead for the long term Don't miss out on the resources mentioned in this episode by checking out the show notes at blacktobusiness.com/269   Thank you so much for listening!

Have you felt God calling you to step outside of what you know how to do into an unknown arena? Over 12 years ago I felt led to begin writing. Me, the girl whose college English teacher said that if I didn't start writing shorter essays, I would flunk her class. I had no idea why God wanted me to write, and sometimes the question still begs an answer, but I was obedient, and God opened doors I never knew were there. In this personal episode, I share my journey of stepping outside my comfort zone—from drawing house plans to writing stories—and the doubts that nearly made me quit. But then, God sent a letter. Not just any letter—a handwritten note from a prison inmate who read my “silly little story” and found hope in the most unexpected way. This episode is a powerful reminder that obedience doesn't always come with clarity, but it always comes with purpose. If you've ever questioned your calling, struggled with confidence, or wondered if your story matters… this one's for you.

Here's what to expect on the podcast:What motivated Tricia to establish Attitudes In Reverse (AIR)How AIR is changing conversations around mental health and providing much-needed supportPrograms designed to encourage early awareness and help-seekingShauna and Lucy's moving stories of joining AIR's missionThe surprising comfort and healing that therapy dogs bringAnd so much more! About Tricia:Tricia Baker, along with her family, established Attitudes In Reverse® (AIR®) in 2010, soon after her son Kenny died by suicide following a long battle against severe depression and anxiety. Mental illness is like AIR. Just because you don't see it, doesn't mean it isn't there. It is all around us®. AIR's mission is to create a community of understanding, kindness and empathy through mental health and suicide prevention education.After a 20-year corporate career in marketing, Tricia took the tremendous loss of Kenny and recognized the need for educating youth about good mental health. Since January 2011, Tricia has developed programs and educated over 250,000 students, parents, school staff, and business partners in New Jersey and across the US.Dogs are an integral part of Tricia's work with AIR®, including K-12 mental wellness educational programs. Administrators say that the retention rate of the mental health material is far greater than other programs, as the students associate the materials with visiting the dogs.  As AIR Program Director, Tricia launched a program for K-4th graders, teaching young children to identify their emotions through discussions of dogs. Tricia has very recently published her first book; Miki & Friends Go to School: Exploring Emotions through the Eyes of Dogs based on this program.In addition to being a mental health advocate and educator, Tricia is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed (CPDT-KA), AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Instructor and a Certified AIR Therapy Dog Evaluator. Through the AIR Dogs: Paws for Minds program, Tricia has partnered with schools to train staff with their personal dogs to be school-based therapy dog teams. The goal - at least one certified therapy dogs on each school campus. To date, there are approximately 75 certified teams across New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Other Guests Who Are AIR Volunteers:Shauna L.

“We were all asking ourselves, ‘what can we do to counter this, what's happening in the world? How can I help my singers understand and navigate what is happening in our country right now?' I made this huge shift in my thinking about what choral music should be and why we should be doing it. It's not just ‘what are you singing and is it gorgeous?' but ‘how are you making a difference? How are you impacting the world?'”Dr. Joy Hirokawa is the Artistic/Executive Director of the Mosaic Youth Chorus, established in 2023 to provide an opportunity for diverse youth to create community, build empathy, and affect positive social change through artistic and expressive choral singing. She is a passionate advocate for giving youth voice through the choral medium and is nationally recognized as a leader in youth choral music.

This is Part 2 of a three part conversation with Dr. Susan Schneider. Dr.Schneider is the author of “The Science of Consequences”. For the past eight years Susan has made climate change her primary focus. Her work on climate change and sustainability includes outreach, community projects, organizing, academic and nonacademic publications, and extensive public speaking.  As Senior Scientist for the sustainability nonprofit Root Solutions, Dr Schneider helped design projects and coauthored two chapters in its 2022 guidebook, Making Shift Happen: Designing for Successful Environmental Behavior Change.   Recent outreach includes a podcast for the Union of Concerned Scientists.  Schneider's award-winning book for the public, The Science of Consequences, covers basic learning principles, their role in nature-nurture relations, and their broad range of applications, including sustainability.  Schneider is on the faculty at Western Michigan University and serves on its Climate Change Working Group. She also serves on the Tools of Change Landmark Peer Review Panel for Climate Change, and on the board of the nonprofit Green Driving America. Now if you are wondering why a podcast about all things equine is talking about climate change, here's the connection. Horses are grazing animals. That means that collectively horse people own, manage, make decisions about a huge amount of land. What we are learning is healthy pastures help to contribute to healthy horses. Healthy pastures also contribute to biodiversity. Healthy pastures come from healthy soils. Improved soil quality absorbs more water which helps to reduce flooding. Healthy soils also sequesters carbon. So horse people can help in the climate change crisis through the way we manage our land. It's one of those win-win-win situations. Healthier pastures are good for our horses which is good for us and it's also good for the planet. I wanted to explore three major topics with Dr. Schneider. The first is where are we now in terms of climate change? Why should we care? The second is what can we do to make a difference. And the third area is how can we talk to others without shutting them down and driving them away? There are lessons to be learned here not just about how do we talk about climate change, but how do we talk about positive reinforcement training when we're surrounded

I want to thank all of you who take interest in these broadcasts. The topics are often heavy, and while I see myself as a historical analyst first and foremost, my Dad instincts compel me to discuss all things I perceive as potential threats to the well-being of my, and your family. I hope that through sharing this series, more people see this powerful cult of finance as a Mankind problem requiring a Mankind response. All good people from all walks of life must come together under a common, noble cause and protect the innocent. A world void of accountability leads to inescapable hell especially in the age of the Technocrats.This is the 2023 production and collaboration by Dave Gahary and Ayo Kimathi.

In this three part series we're joined by Dr. Susan Schneider is a behavior analyst. She is the author of “The Science of Consequences” which many of you may have read. Normally when we have behavior analysts as guests we talk about academic subjects such as schedules of reinforcement. In this case I wanted to talk to Susan about what horse people can do to help mitigate the climate change crisis. For the past eight years Susan has made climate change her primary focus. Her work on climate change and sustainability includes outreach, community projects, organizing, academic and nonacademic publications, and extensive public speaking.  As Senior Scientist for the sustainability nonprofit Root Solutions, Dr Schneider helped design projects and coauthored two chapters in its 2022 guidebook, Making Shift Happen: Designing for Successful Environmental Behavior Change.   Recent outreach includes a podcast for the Union of Concerned Scientists.  Schneider's award-winning book for the public, The Science of Consequences, covers basic learning principles, their role in nature-nurture relations, and their broad range of applications, including sustainability.  Schneider is on the faculty at Western Michigan University and serves on its Climate Change Working Group. She also serves on the Tools of Change Landmark Peer Review Panel for Climate Change, and on the board of the nonprofit Green Driving America. Now if you are wondering why a podcast about all things equine is talking about climate change, here's the connection. Horses are grazing animals. That means that collectively horse people own, manage, make decisions about a huge amount of land. What we are learning is healthy pastures help to contribute to healthy horses. Healthy pastures also contribute to biodiversity. Healthy pastures come from healthy soils. Improved soil quality absorbs more water which helps to reduce flooding. Healthy soils also sequesters carbon. So horse people can help in the climate change crisis through the way we manage our land. It's one of those win-win-win situations. Healthier pastures are good for our horses which is good for us and it's also good for the planet. I wanted to explore three major topics with Dr. Schneider. The first is where are we now in terms of climate change? Why should we care? The second is what can we do to make a difference. And the third area is how can we talk to others without shutting them down and driving them away? There are lessons to be learned here not just about how do we talk about climate change, but how do we talk about positive reinforcement training when we're surrounded by command-based trainers. In part 1 I set the stage for this conversation and then Dr. Schneider took us to some hopeful solutions that are available to all of us.

Guiding Question: What's the one real change you need to make this year—and how can becoming different help you make a difference? Summary Description: To kick off the new year, Robert Lewis addresses the universal desire for personal transformation and the difficulty many face in making lasting change. Using Ephesians 4 and 5, he contrasts the world's futile patterns of living with the “new self” available through Christ. Rather than calling for sweeping resolutions, Lewis challenges listeners to identify and commit to just one change that would dramatically improve their lives. He emphasizes that real change is not only possible but deeply impactful—both for the individual and for those around them. Through scripture, storytelling, and practical insight, he invites each listener to break free from old patterns and embrace a new life marked by spiritual growth and integrity. Outline: The Challenge of Change Why most New Year's resolutions fail: too much, too fast, or giving up. The importance of aiming for one meaningful, realistic change. Cultural Resistance and Personal Resignation The dangers of either trying too much or believing we can't change at all. Covey's metaphor of launch: most effort is needed at the beginning. A Story of Transformation Governor Mike Huckabee's physical transformation as a metaphor for spiritual change. Key motivators: faith, fitness, family. The Christian Life as Real Change Paul's vision in Ephesians 4–5: living differently from the world. Putting off the “old self” and putting on the “new self” through practical, moral change. Examples of the New Self Telling the truth, controlling anger, giving generously, speaking life, pursuing sexual purity. Not just religious behaviors, but real lifestyle changes. The Power of One Change A single, authentic change can set the course for a life of transformation. Offers hope to others and confirms the reality of our faith. Testimony and Challenge A moving story of reconciliation after 11 years of estrangement. Encouragement to identify your “one thing” and ask God to help you change it. The Rewards of Change Richer life, deeper faith, influence on others, and the pleasure of God. Key Takeaways Real, lasting change requires focus, humility, and the help of God—not just willpower. Trying to change too much at once often backfires; instead, aim for one significant change. Spiritual growth is shown in real-life actions, not just religious routines. Becoming different is how we make a difference in the world. God partners with us when we sincerely commit to growth and transformation. Even one real change can lead to freedom, new options, and a renewed walk with God. Scriptural References Ephesians 4:17–24 – Put off the old self, be renewed, and put on the new self. Ephesians 5:3–14 – A call to walk in light and purity, reflecting Christ. Romans 12:2 – Transformation by renewing the mind (implied concept). John 8:32 The truth will set you free (referenced in testimony). Psalm 23, Joel 2:25, Jeremiah 30:17 – Restoration and healing (echoed from prior messages). 1 Thessalonians 4:17 – Eternal hope (part of larger biblical context). Recorded 1/9/05

Across the Shenandoah Valley, the spirit of community is alive and thriving, thanks in large part to the efforts of United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley (UWNSV) and its dedicated partners. In a recent episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael sat down with UWNSV CEO Andy Gail to pull back the curtain on the organization's annual Impact Grants—a process that this year saw over $435,000 distributed to local nonprofits, with an additional $100,000 from other funding sources. What sets these grants apart is the community-driven approach: volunteers from across the region serve on grant panels, evaluating applications and making funding decisions that directly address the Valley's most pressing needs. Andy highlighted the collaborative nature of the process, noting how nonprofits are encouraged to work together, share resources, and even co-author grant applications. This year, the streamlined application and reporting process made it easier for organizations to focus on their missions rather than paperwork, while still ensuring accountability and transparency. The result? A more connected network of nonprofits, empowered to make a tangible difference in areas like education, health, and community resilience. The episode also spotlighted the upcoming First Responders Thank You event, organized by local business owner Kimberly Sowers in partnership with United Way. Set to be a family-friendly celebration, the event will offer free meals to first responders, live music, and activities for children, all in honor of the Valley's emergency personnel. Kimberly's passion for giving back to those who run toward danger instead of away from it resonated deeply, and the event promises to strengthen the bond between first responders and the community they serve. As the conversation wrapped up, Andy reflected on United Way's evolving role—not just as a funder, but as a connector, advocate, and resource for the region's nonprofits. By fostering collaboration, encouraging innovation, and keeping the focus on impact, United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley is helping to ensure that every dollar—and every act of kindness—goes further in building a stronger, more resilient community.

The message was delivered on Sunday, July 2Oth, 2025, at All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, by Rev. Dr. Marlin Lavanhar, Senior Minister. DESCRIPTION: When you're struggling upside down like a fly on a windowsill, what force might come along to help you right yourself? Ancient stories like David and Goliath reveal timeless truths about facing seemingly impossible challenges with nothing but smooth stones and unwavering resolve. A single photograph of two girls in green dresses becomes a lifeline that transforms three lives across sixteen years, proving that small acts of kindness ripple forward in ways we never imagine. Sometimes the most profound courage isn't blind certainty, but the willingness to act when doing nothing feels like its own kind of death. What if the wind that saves us comes not from above, but from the love we dare to give each other? SUBSCRIBE TO WATCH OTHER VIDEOS: @allsoulsunitarian WANT TO LISTEN?

In this episode of Notable Leaders' Radio, I sit down with Andy Crocker, author of The Unconditionals, to explore how five core values, unconditional love, gratitude, integrity, accountability, and endeavor, can transform how we face challenges and build resilience. Andy shares powerful insights and real-life stories that reveal how grounding yourself in these values can help you recover from failure faster, pivot with purpose, and live a life defined by meaning, not perfection. In this episode, you'll learn how to: See failure as a launchpad, not a dead end. When you stop viewing setbacks as defeat, you recover faster and grow wiser, equipped to seize new opportunities with greater clarity and courage. Define success on your own terms. Ditch the societal checklist. Pursuing fulfillment, not perfection, leads to greater joy, authenticity, and personal achievement. Pivot with purpose when life shifts. Unexpected turns are inevitable. A values-based mindset empowers you to adjust course with intention and rediscover meaning, even in the midst of change. Embrace imperfection as a path to progress. Mastery isn't about getting it right the first time—it's about learning, evolving, and moving forward without fear of failure.

In this heartwarming episode of Reading with Your Kids, we dive into the magical world of children's literature with two passionate authors who are transforming how kids think about reading, writing, and making a difference. Rae Marsh, author of the Love Maggie series, shares her incredible journey of creating books that truly resonate with children. Inspired by her own daughters, Marsh developed a chapter book and middle-grade novel series that captures the everyday experiences of kids. Her approach is simple yet powerful: encourage children to write about what they know and love. During school visits, Marsh lights up when discussing her mission to inspire young writers. She challenges students to look around their own lives for storytelling inspiration, showing them that their personal experiences are valuable and worth sharing. Her books follow Maggie, a character based on her daughter, navigating school, family, and personal growth. Joining the conversation is Phil Hall, author of "The Day the Children Save the World," who takes a slightly different approach. Hall's book focuses on pro-social behaviors, teaching children how their actions can positively impact the world around them. Through 26 alphabetical examples, he demonstrates how small acts of kindness can create meaningful connections. Both authors share a common goal: empowering children to understand their potential. They believe kids can make a significant difference through creativity, empathy, and intentional actions. Whether it's through storytelling or everyday kindness, these authors are helping shape the next generation of compassionate, confident individuals.
