Joe Pardavila sits down with Benjamin Douglas for a direct conversation about why so many workplaces settle for survival instead of commitment.Drawing on more than two decades in human resources, Ben explains how culture breaks down even inside successful companies, and why people disengage long before performance numbers show trouble. He shares the thinking behind his bestselling book, Mediocre to Meaningful, and why leadership choices, not strategy decks, shape belief and behavior at workBen walks through the power of listening before leading, why middle managers carry more pressure than executives realize, and how trust grows through follow through instead of slogans. He explains why doing more with less erodes culture, how honest feedback builds care rather than fear, and why purpose comes from daily decisions, not posters on the wall. The conversation stays practical, grounded, and focused on what leaders do when deadlines, stress, and real people collideThis episode speaks to leaders who want teams who care about the work, not teams who simply clock in and survive the day. It offers clear perspective on how small, intentional actions build meaning, trust, and performance over timeIf you want a workplace where people bring thought, care, and ownership to their work, this conversation gives you a clear place to start.

God operates at the highest level. How do we know what the will of God is?How do we show what the will of God is? Don't conform but be transformed. 

We often talk about being busy like it's just a season we're going through, but what if it has become our way of life? Pastor Mike explores the spiritual cost of constantly running at full speed.

I audited my 2025 year looking for lessons learned, relearned, and unlearned. Here's a big one I'm relearning: the difference between someone good on your team versus someone great isn't 10-20% better—it's 10-20X in productivity, output, and impact. I really mean this. I came from the corporate world where I had big budgets and could hire A-players, but when I went out on my own with tighter budgets, I developed a bad habit: hiring cheaper people thinking I could get it all done. I'd hire two or three mediocre people instead of one A-player focused on the most important thing. What happened? Failed prioritization. Mediocre people increased noise, required constant oversight, and diluted my time instead of extending capacity. I was micromanaging and fixing instead of building. This past year I went back to my roots: only accept A-players, which forced me to prioritize ruthlessly. The business accelerated dramatically. This episode breaks down my number one recommendation for hiring A-players: treat it like video production—spend way more time on pre-production and strategy to dramatically reduce post-production work. Instead of jumping to a job post and taking "good enough," spend time defining what success really looks like, who would crush it (beyond resume bullets), and what systems screen people in or out. It feels slower up front but there's no comparison in speed to full output and caliber of people you stack on the team.//Welcome to Repeatable Revenue, hosted by strategic growth advisor , Ray J.

Our daily habits are surrounded by screens and technology that shape our lives in ways we rarely stop to notice. Using one of Jesus' parables, Pastor Mike raises a deeper question beneath the scrolls, streams, and notifications: What are you making space for—and what might you be missing? This message offers time to pause, reflect, and consider what's quietly shaping the direction of your life—and to step back and realign your habits with what truly matters.

In this episode, Tara sits down with popular content creator of @ThatDarnChat, Fair Play Facilitator, and author of the new book No More Mediocre, Laura Danger for an honest, validating, and occasionally uncomfortably relatable conversation about domestic labor, mental load, and why so many partnerships quietly slide into mediocrity. They unpack how the pandemic cracked things wide open exposing just how uneven household responsibilities really are and why so many couples are still struggling to rebalance things years later. Spoiler: it's not because anyone's “bad at helping,” it's because the entire concept of help is part of the problem. Laura and Tara dig into the cultural conditioning that shapes our expectations at home, from who notices what needs to be done to who feels responsible for making sure it gets done. They explore the difference between expectations and standards (yes, they are not the same thing), and how unmet expectations can quietly turn into resentment, disconnection, and even feelings of betrayal. The conversation also touches on why mediocre relationships are so often tolerated (and normalized) especially for women and mothers who were taught to lower the bar and keep the peace. Drawing from her book No More Mediocre, Laura makes a powerful case for intentionality in domestic roles and communication, emphasizing that equity doesn't happen accidentally. Tara and Laura also reflect on how online conversations have helped name the mental load and bring language to something so many parents feel but couldn't quite articulate. If you've ever felt exhausted by carrying the invisible work at home, or wondered why “just tell me what to do” isn't the solution, this episode will make you feel seen, validated, and maybe a little fired up (in a good way).

Pastor Mike launches this new sermon series by taking aim at one of the most accepted spiritual trends of our time—the kind that feels personal, flexible, and easy to control. But is it actually leading you anywhere solid? Rooted in Psalm 16, this message challenges you to consider who holds the authority in your life—and whether that's bringing the peace and purpose you're hoping for.

On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock unpacks Shedeur Sanders' performance during the Cleveland Browns' 24-10 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders and analyzes Shedeur's behavior before and after the game. Whitlock explains why Shedeur's antics mimic those of his father, Coach Deion “Prime” Sanders, and why the pair believe confidence is the key to success when, in fact, humility is the true key to success. Whitlock also breaks down what makes Shedeur Sanders the black Tim Tebow, as he has fans — Shannon Sharpe, Ochocinco, Emmanuel Acho, RG3, and LeSean McCoy among them — caping up for him no matter what he does. Whitlock then presents his 10 NFL Truths of the week, arguing that Myles Garrett is the best player in football, the Eagles are mid without Lane Johnson, Matt Stafford is the league's MVP, and more. During As the WNBA Turns, Whitlock discusses the Dallas Wings' dream come true in drafting Azzi Fudd to play with her lover, Paige Bueckers. Coach J.B. joins the show to discuss the Browns vs. Raiders game and the Shedeur Sanders Show; the Raiders firing offensive coordinator Chip Kelly after just 11 games; Mike Kafka's decision to go for it that sent the Giants vs. Lions game into overtime and ended in a Giants loss; Lamar Jackson's slump and whether he has hit a running-quarterback wall; Matt Stafford as the league MVP; and Florida State retaining head coach Mike Norvell.

On today’s episode, Jason discusses why it's clear following their latest loss that Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs aren't Super Bowl contenders, why it's so hard to take Jared Goff and the Detroit Loins seriously given his propensity to play poorly in cold weather, why you shouldn't fear Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks despite their stellar regular season record, who we should view as the real teams to beat in the AFC and the NFC, and why you shouldn't be surprised that Shedeur Sanders struggled so mightily in his NFL debut. Finally, J-Mac closes the show with this Best Bets for the Monday Night Football showdown between the Dallas Cowboys and the Las Vegas Raiders. #OddCouple Follow Jason on Twitter and Instagram.
