    What if the reason you still feel off (despite trying every diet, supplement, routine, and hormone protocol) is that nobody has ever treated your body as the energy system it actually is? In this conversation, Allison Maslan, who is a classically trained homeopath, founder of Pinnacle Global Network, and a Wall Street Journal bestselling author dives into a conversation that goes far beyond conventional health advice. Allison spent 20 years running her own homeopathic practice, treated thousands of patients, and founded the first homeopathic college in Southern California. She's also in her early 60s, flies trapeze, and is proof that your most powerful chapter can start in midlife. We unpack what homeopathy actually is and why it's been written out of mainstream American medicine, how it can support women navigating menopause and perimenopause (especially those who can't or don't want to use hormones), the science of why your brain literally cannot tell the difference between a vivid visualization and reality, the 1980s study that proved men in their 70s and 80s can physically reverse aging through mindset alone, and Allison's exact Vision Crafting process – the morning ritual she uses to manifest everything from her dream home to business breakthroughs. This episode is for the woman who is tired of only playing defense with her health and is ready to start playing offense with her life with real, science-backed mechanics of how your brain shapes your body and what you can do with that tomorrow morning.

    In this solo episode, Travis Chappell breaks down one of the most underrated money-making skills in business and life: reaction management. Drawing inspiration from Stoic philosophy and real-world negotiation experience, Travis explains why staying calm under pressure can dramatically increase your income, improve your leadership, and protect your investments. From closing a $150,000 wire with a steady poker face to navigating market crashes without panic-selling, this episode explores how emotional control creates leverage—and how overreaction quietly costs you money. On this episode we talk about: Why calm is a trainable skill—not just a personality trait The Stoic principle of controlling your reaction, not external events How emotional leakage hurts you in negotiations The psychology behind signaling desperation (even accidentally) Why investors lose money by reacting instead of holding How to separate perception from reality in “good” or “bad” news Top 3 Takeaways Reaction management creates leverage. The less emotional data you give away, the stronger your negotiating position becomes. There are no inherently good or bad events—only perception. Your response determines the outcome more than the event itself. Calm compounds. Chaos compounds faster. Whether in investing, leadership, or relationships, steady decision-making wins long term. Notable Quotes “Calm is a skill, chaos is a choice.” “It's not a loss until you sell.” “Your reaction is not what makes information good or bad. What you do with it does.” “The calm people are the ones who win long term.” Connect with Travis Chappell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell Other: https://travischappell.com  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.

    "When you master your inner world, you stop reacting to life and start shaping it." What if the real key to manifestation has nothing to do with vision boards… and everything to do with where you place your focus? In this compelling episode of SoulTalk, Kute Blackson sits down with one of the most talked-about figures in personal development, Kevin Trudeau, for a bold and eye-opening conversation about power, attention, belief, and what it actually takes to create the life you want. This isn't another surface-level conversation about "think positive and hope." Instead, Kevin shares his perspective on the mechanics of manifestation; how your focus shapes your perception, how perception shapes your decisions, and how your decisions ultimately shape your destiny. Together, we explore the idea that the world outside may be noisy, chaotic, and unpredictable, but your ability to direct your attention is the ultimate leverage point. If you've ever wondered why some people seem to attract opportunity, wealth, influence, and momentum while others feel stuck reacting to circumstances, this episode offers a different lens. It invites you to stop giving your energy to distraction and start consciously investing it where it creates results. This conversation isn't about fear. It's about reclaiming agency. It's about understanding how your internal world your focus, your beliefs, your emotional state becomes the foundation of what shows up externally. If you're ready to sharpen your focus, think differently, and unlock a more intentional way of creating success, this episode will challenge you in all the right ways  and leave you asking bigger questions about what's truly possible. → Listen now and explore the deeper mechanics of focus, power, and manifestation.   TIMESTAMPS (00:02:24) – Focusing on your inner world as the only reality you truly control. (00:03:30) – Creating a personal paradise by focusing on the world immediately around you. (00:04:32) – Stress and anxiety caused by obsessing over global events we cannot change. (00:06:04) – The tension between self-focus and service to humanity. (00:08:14) – Why belief must be grounded rather than delusional. (00:09:11) – Rebuilding confidence step by step when life feels collapsed. (00:12:45) – The danger of fantasy thinking without aligned action. (00:15:10) – Discipline, focus, and consistency as the real drivers of success. (00:18:32) – Personal responsibility versus victim mentality in modern society. (00:21:07) – How external distractions keep people away from their true potential. (00:24:18) – The psychological impact of media, fear, and constant information overload. (00:27:46) – Attention as the most valuable resource in today's world. (00:33:05) – How environment and daily inputs shape mindset and outcomes. (00:36:22) – The difference between reacting to the world and consciously creating your experience. (00:39:41) – Inner mastery as the foundation of influence and leadership. (00:45:36) – Why most people give their power away without realizing it. (00:48:02) – The importance of clarity, intention, and mental direction. (00:52:44) – Choosing where to place your focus in a noisy and chaotic world. (00:56:14) – Mastering your internal state regardless of what is happening globally. (00:57:23) – The illusion of control over the outside world versus real control within. (00:58:53) – Reclaiming personal power through awareness and intentional focus. In This Episode You Will Learn… Why focusing on the external world can keep you distracted from your real power. How your personal perception shapes your emotional reality more than global events. Why inner focus is the ultimate form of control in uncertain times. The hidden cost of constantly consuming fear-driven narratives. How shifting your attention inward can radically change how you experience Some Questions I Ask What if the chaos of the world is pulling my attention away from my real power? Am I reacting to headlines more than directing my own life? Where is my focus on the world I can't control or the one I can? How much of my stress comes from things outside my direct reality? Who would I become if I mastered my inner world instead of fearing the outer one?   Get in Touch: Create a life that is a masterpiece.

    Episode Overview In this special birthday edition, we pause to celebrate the gift of another year of life and health while leaning into the beautiful, often messy reality of motherhood. For the "solo mom" navigating a relentless schedule, the pressure to maintain a robust, traditional spiritual life can frequently lead to burnout rather than peace. In this episode I address the universal struggle of trying to foster a spiritual rhythm when your energy is completely depleted. By introducing the strategic concept of "tiny habits," I explore how to move away from spiritual stagnation and toward a sustainable, vibrant faith. Instead of viewing devotions as another daunting task on an overflowing to-do list, we look at how to anchor our families in Christ through the small, manageable "pockets of time" we already have.Episode At-A-GlanceThe Birthday Pivot: How to cultivate a heart of gratitude in the midst of the solo-mom marathon.The "Tiny Habit" Framework: Why "quick wins" are the essential antidote to spiritual exhaustion for busy parents.Incidental Discipleship: Simple questions that help your child understand their place in God's kingdom.Scripture-Based Conflict Resolution: Moving from reactive yelling to proactive character building.Mastering the 3:00 AM "Worry Drop-Off": A visualization technique to transform midnight panic into restorative prayer.Special Birthday Giveaway: How to claim your free chapters of the Courage to Believe devotional.While we celebrate the milestones of a new year, we must also navigate the daily terrain of motherhood, which often feels more like a survival race than a celebration.The Reality of the "Solo Mom" Devotional StruggleTraditional devotional models—often requiring long periods of uninterrupted silence and deep study—frequently fail the modern parent because they don't account for the "real life" exhaustion of managing a household alone. Acknowledging this struggle is not a sign of failure but a crucial step toward genuine spiritual growth. When we stop pretending we have the energy for hour-long prayer sessions after a twelve-hour day, we can finally meet God where we actually are: in the midst of our tiredness.The host candidly shares the common pitfalls of this season, such as falling asleep mid-prayer. She recounts times of falling asleep on her knees and finding herself "saying rubbish" because her mind was too foggy to function—and then imagining God laughing at her with grace and love. These moments of "falling flat on your face" serve as a vital catalyst. They push us to stop seeking the "perfect" devotional time and start looking for "quick wins" that provide immediate relief."Faith isn't just for Sunday mornings. It happens in the margins of our day."Acknowledging these struggles allows us to pivot from guilt to grace, leading us to three stress-free strategies that fit into the actual life of a busy parent.Strategy 1: The Five-Minute Spiritual Check-InThe first strategy focuses on the value of "incidental discipleship." This involves utilizing the natural pauses in your day—whether sitting at the dinner table or driving the kids to a school activity—to foster spiritual curiosity. Rather than a formal lesson, this is about weaving

    Max Martina on Mastering Adaptive Leadership for Complex Challenges in Modern Business Cambridge-leadership.com About the Guest(s): Max Martina is an accomplished leader in the field of change leadership, currently serving as the President of Cambridge Leadership Associates, a prominent consultancy founded at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. With a robust background spanning over two decades in corporate management and startups, Max is also a partner at the executive advisory firm Nofsinger Group. His extensive consultancy expertise encompasses working with C-suite and board-level executives across both public and private sectors, with clients including major companies such as PepsiCo, IHG, Microsoft, Pfizer, Amgen, and Intel, along with organizations like the United Nations. Max has been featured in media outlets including CNN, NPR, and MSNBC and brings a wealth of knowledge to the realm of leadership consulting. Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of the Chris Voss Show, host Chris Voss welcomes Max Martina, a distinguished leader in change leadership, to explore the current dynamics and the pressing need for adaptive leadership in today’s fast-evolving world. The conversation delves into the intricacies of adaptive leadership, contrasting traditional models and emphasizing the necessity for a flexible, behavior-focused approach to tackle complex issues within organizations. Listeners get an in-depth look at how leadership is evolving with the rapid rise of AI, economical upheavals, and global challenges. Throughout the discussion, Voss and Martina highlight the notion that leadership is not synonymous with authority and that true leaders are those who practice and exhibit flexible behaviors suited to ever-changing environments. They explore the limitations of traditional leadership dogmas, such as trait theory, and the advantages of adaptive leadership, grounded in behavior and self-awareness. Martina shares insights into how executives can foster an environment that thrives amidst uncertainty, focusing on critical areas such as diagnostics, experimentation, and the shift from individual contributors to team-based leadership. This episode is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding modern leadership dynamics and how to apply these principles effectively. Key Takeaways: Adaptive leadership diverges from traditional theories, focusing on flexibility and behaviors over positions of authority. The need for self-awareness and behavior change is critical for effective leadership, particularly amid today’s rapid technological advancements. Adaptive leadership emphasizes diagnostics and experimentation in solving complex, adaptive problems that cannot be addressed by technical solutions alone. Building organizational capacity involves shifting from a focus on individual execution to fostering a conducive environment that supports collective learning and problem-solving. With AI driving unprecedented changes, the necessity for adaptive leadership has become more pronounced to keep up with the escalating rate of transformation. Notable Quotes: “Leadership isn’t about having authority; it’s about practicing certain behaviors regardless of your role or title.” “We’re outpacing humanity’s ability to respond systemically to the complexity that exists, and the antidote is leadership.” “Change isn’t hard, but adapting to the losses that change brings is what challenges us the most.” “Successful leadership requires diagnostics – understanding the source of the problem and the stakeholders involved.” “Organizations today need leaders who can not only solve problems but are curious enough to experiment and find new solutions.”

    Mastering the Shift from Micromanagement to Empowerment with Stefan FeuersteinIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Stefan Feuerstein, the founder of ABC Delegation and author of the framework by the same name. Their conversation dives deep into the psychological and structural barriers that prevent leaders from effectively letting go of control. Stefan shares how his methodology helps managers move beyond the "abdication vs. micromanagement" trap, offering a clear system to foster genuine employee engagement and organizational scalability. This episode is an essential guide for any leader feeling overwhelmed by their to-do list and looking to build a high-performing, autonomous team.Implementing the ABC Framework for Scalable LeadershipEffective delegation is not about offloading tasks; it is about the strategic transfer of authority and ownership within a defined structure. Stefan explains that most leaders fail because they lack a "Mission Frame"—the clear boundaries that define a team member's area of impact—and a "Mandate Frame," which outlines their specific level of authority. By co-creating these frames, leaders provide the psychological safety necessary for employees to take risks and innovate. Without this clarity, employees often default to "learned helplessness," waiting for permission for every minor decision, which eventually leads to founder burnout and team stagnation.To solve this, Stefan's framework categorizes every responsibility into three distinct levels of autonomy: A, B, and C. Level A tasks are those the team member can execute entirely on their own; Level B requires the team member to act but keep the manager informed; and Level C requires explicit consent before any action is taken. This system allows for a dynamic growth path where tasks can migrate from C to A as trust and competence increase. By making these levels explicit, leaders eliminate the ambiguity that causes friction and delays, allowing the manager to focus on high-level strategy while the team manages the day-to-day operations with confidence.Building a culture of empowerment also requires a shift in how leaders approach follow-up and support. Stefan emphasizes that delegation is a mutual commitment: while the team member commits to ownership, the manager must commit to supportive check-ins and conflict resolution. Instead of checking up on people to catch mistakes, the "ABC Check-In" focuses on reviewing Level B and C tasks while consistently recognizing successes. This structured approach ensures that the manager stays connected to the pulse of the business without suffocating the team's creative process. Ultimately, mastering this skill transforms a group of individual contributors into a cohesive, self-leading organization.About Stefan Feuerstein:Stefan Feuerstein is the founder of ABC Delegation and an expert in organizational change and leadership development. He is the author of ABC Delegation, a book dedicated to helping managers overcome the hurdles of micromanagement to build more engaged and productive teams.About ABC DelegationABC Delegation is a consultancy and training organization that provides frameworks for effective team management.

    Managing product complexity has become increasingly critical as customers demand greater customisation. Manufacturers face the challenge of connecting disparate data systems effectively. In this episode of Tech Transformed, host Christina Stathopoulos and Laura Beckwith, Director of Product Management at Configit, discuss the complexities of managing product data in manufacturing, focusing on the concept of the digital thread. They explore the challenges manufacturers face in connecting disparate data systems, the importance of customisation, and how a Configuration Lifecycle Management (CLM) approach can provide a reliable foundation for digital threads. Understanding the Digital ThreadThe digital thread represents the traceability of all decisions and information regarding a product from its inception and throughout its lifecycle. According to Laura Beckwith, the digital thread allows manufacturers to trace decisions made during the requirements stage through to engineering and ultimately to manufacturing and service. This traceability is not just about having data; it's also about ensuring that various teams and systems can access the right information to facilitate informed decision-making.Challenges in Implementing the Digital ThreadDespite the promise that digital threads hold, manufacturers face significant challenges in connecting data from multiple systems. Beckwith highlights the example of a smartphone, which undergoes various phases from design to manufacturing. Each phase involves distinct software systems—like CAD for design and ERP for manufacturing—many of which do not communicate well with one another. This lack of integration often leads to inefficiencies, such as manual data entry and miscommunication between teams.The Impact of Customisation on ComplexityAs customisation becomes the norm, the complexity of managing product data increases exponentially. Beckwith notes that while smartphones may have limited customisations, products like cars offer vast configurability. For instance, when configuring a car, consumers can choose from an extensive array of options. Behind the scenes, however, manufacturers must manage numerous engineering constraints and compliance regulations. This is where the digital thread becomes essential, enabling manufacturers to track and manage these complex configurations effectively.The Role of Configuration Lifecycle Management (CLM)The upcoming CLM Summit 2026 will focus on mastering customisation complexity and building a reliable data foundation for configurable products. Beckwith explains that a scalable CLM approach is crucial for establishing a reliable digital thread. It ensures that all product configurations, such as the combination of seat heating and memory seats in a car, are tracked accurately. This not only aids in the manufacturing process but also enhances customer service by allowing manufacturers to address issues based on specific configurations.More broadly, the digital thread provides manufacturers with a framework for managing the growing complexity of modern product development. By enabling seamless communication between data systems and implementing effective CLM practices, organisations can better align engineering, manufacturing, and service functions.

    I've had the privilege of working with some of the world's greatest marketing minds—Gary Vaynerchuk, Todd Brown, Russell Brunson—and let me tell you, the deeper I go, the more I realize how most orthodontists, myself included, haven't been taught how to market effectively.In this episode of 5 Minute Friday, I walk you through a powerful framework I've learned: marketing as a pyramid. At the bottom of that pyramid are people who don't even know they have a problem, and at the top are the ones ready to take action. But here's the catch—most of us are marketing to the wrong level of awareness, with the wrong message, in the wrong place. That's costing us real money.Quotes“When you put a $500 discount in front of people who don't even know their kid needs ortho, you're wasting money—and missing the mark.” — Dr. Glenn Krieger“Pair the message you're sending with the awareness they have of your office.

    In the winter of 1980, the world turned its eyes to Lake Placid, New York, host of the Winter Olympics. But behind the pageantry, another structure loomed in the Adirondack woods. Built to house 1,800 athletes, the Olympic Village looked less like a dormitory than a detention center — because that’s exactly what it was designed to become. * Hosted by Zaron Burnett, Dana Schwartz, and Jason EnglishWritten by Zaron BurnettSenior Producer is Josh FisherEditing and Sound Design by Jesse NighswongerMixing and Mastering by Josh FisherOriginal Music by Elise McCoyShow Logo by Lucy QuintanillaExecutive Producer is Jason English For School of Humans, Producers are Emilia Brock and Edeliz Perez.

    Nick welcomes Richard Woods—entrepreneur, former The Apprentice finalist, and founder of the Million Dollar Billboard—to discuss the essential mechanics of high-growth lead generation and sales.  They discuss Richard's philosophy, where the most businesses struggle not because of their product, but because they lack a predictable, scalable system for attracting new customers. Together, they explore the psychological barriers to selling, the importance of personal branding in a digital age, and how to transition from a hustle mindset to a structured, repeatable sales engine that allows a business to truly scale KEY TAKEAWAYS Richard explains that every business needs a Million Dollar Billboard—a singular, compelling message that stops a potential customer in their tracks and clearly articulates the value proposition in seconds. Success is not about sporadic marketing efforts; it requires a documented, repeatable system that ensures a consistent flow of leads regardless of the founder's daily involvement. In a world of automation, people still buy from people; Richard stresses that building a personal brand creates trust and "short-circuits" the traditional sales cycle. The interview highlights that selling should be viewed as a way to help people solve problems rather than a transactional burden BEST MOMENTS "If you can't describe what you do on a billboard and have people understand it in three seconds, your message is too complex." "Most entrepreneurs don't have a sales problem; they have a 'being known' problem." "Scaling is what happens when the systems are stronger than the personalities within the business." "Lead generation is the oxygen of your business; without a constant flow, the fire eventually goes out."

    In this episode, I explore the deeper layers of spiritual sovereignty, perception, and the nature of evil with teacher and healer Sarah Elkhaldy, host of Mystery Teachings on Gaia. We go far beyond surface-level spirituality and into the real terrain—psychopathy, manipulation, spiritual warfare, and the psychological mechanics behind modern psyops.Sarah shares her unlikely entry point into awakening through conspiracy research, how that path evolved into esoteric study, and why understanding darkness is essential to true alchemy. We unpack the weaponization of compassion, the dangers of outsourcing authority, and how unexamined core wounds can make us vulnerable to manipulation. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the state of the world, questioned your sanity while researching uncomfortable truths, or struggled to balance discernment with an open heart, this conversation will resonate.We also get into perception as the ultimate alchemical tool—how mastering it can modulate your nervous system, shift your biology, and reclaim your power from false authorities. Sarah explains why spiritual awakening requires energy, resilience, and a willingness to confront the uncomfortable realities most people avoid.This one goes deep. If you've been navigating the rabbit holes, wrestling with duality, or wondering whether evil can truly change—or whether this realm is something we graduate from rather than fix—you're going to want to hear this conversation.Watch Mystery Teachings with Sarah Elkhaldy at gaia.com/series/mystery-teachings-with-sarah-elkhaldy.DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for educational purposes only and not intended for diagnosing or treating illnesses.
