On this episode, Jeff Hinshaw guides you through a somatic meditation and energy update connected to the Virgo Full Moon Lunar Eclipse of 2026—a fated turning point unfolding over months, not just a single night. With the North Node in Pisces and the South Node in Virgo, a story that's been developing for over the past decade begins to crest, inviting release, discernment, and a return to embodied, practical wisdom. Then, Jeff is joined by Double Aquarius, Virgo Rising  Bee—The Zine Witch. Recorded amid a rare eclipse sequence linking Aquarius and Virgo by quincunx rather than polarity, they explore what it means to be cycle-enders. They reflect on collective PTSD, grief surfacing through clients and communities, and Virgo's sacred task of digestion. Together tracing larger cycles—the 18.5-year eclipse rhythm and the 35-year Saturn–Neptune arc—as thresholds of generational review, asking how we tend the details of our healing while history turns. We also dive into Internal Family Systems with Virgo's esoteric phrase “I am the mother and the child” as a guide. We re-frame astrology as a tool for re-parenting, especially for neurodivergent folks who learned to self-manage and mask in order to survive. In a playful Virgo improv, Virgo stays home to tend to the mundane, receives a protective ward at a threshold, and invokes ancestral courage through shufflemancy with Amy Winehouse—opening a dialogue on feminism, the meaning of the word “Virago,” and embodied service. We close our time pulling the “Fearless” card from the Wild Kuan Yin oracle, Bee offers a candle ritual for courage and protection, sealing the episode with a direct blessing to those stepping into autonomy, reminding us that devotion to healing, detail, and love is itself a revolutionary act.

Send a textWhat happens when a strong, capable, church raised man realizes he still wants more of God?In this powerful and honest conversation, Pete Alwinson and Jayson Quiñones sit down with Orlando firefighter and alligator hunter Greg Love to talk about pride, surrender, spiritual renewal, and the life changing power of mentorship. Greg shares the defining moment in 2021 when everything shifted for him. Though he had intellectual belief, years in men's ministry, and a deep church background, he came to a place of desperation that led to true surrender.From a sobering moment in the fire service to breaking down in a restaurant parking lot, Greg opens up about what it means to be undone before God and rebuilt by grace. The conversation explores father wounds, identity as a beloved son of God, the difference between mentoring and discipleship, and how spiritual fire must be stewarded wisely when sharing it with other men.If you have ever felt stuck in routine religion, struggled with pride, or wondered how to guide other men without pushing them away, this episode will challenge and encourage you.

In this episode of The Untethered Podcast, Hallie Bulkin tackles a question many feeding specialists quietly wrestle with:Why can two therapists treat the same child — and achieve completely different outcomes?The answer isn't more techniques. It's clinical reasoning.Hallie dives into the complexity of pediatric feeding therapy, unpacking why progress often stalls when clinicians focus on surface-level feeding skills instead of identifying the primary systems driving a child's feeding patterns. She challenges therapists to move beyond siloed thinking and into an integrated, systems-based approach that transforms therapy outcomes.This conversation marks a powerful shift — from simply treating feeding challenges to stepping into clinical leadership.If you've ever wondered why some cases feel stuck… or why therapy timelines stretch longer than expected… this episode will sharpen your lens and elevate your practice. WHAT YOU'LL UNCOVER

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have KiataKiata is a mama of 1 and currently 30 weeks pregnant from Tasmania Australia.She's a social worker who has worked with children and families for many years. Once she became a mother she found her passion for supporting families in parenting and she is now in the process of becoming an aware parenting instructor. For Kiata, trusting birth began long before labour. She grew up knowing home birth as normal as her own mother birthed her and her sister at home. So when it was her turn, it felt like returning to something familiar. Something ancestral.She laboured for 12 hours in water, at home, surrounded by the people she trusted most, her partner, her mother, her sister, and her midwives. That circle of trust held her steady. It allowed her to soften. To open and to surrender to the intensity of birth through fears and doubts.|She birthed her daughter at home in the birth pool surrounded by love and joy and after her baby was born her father also joined and they all soaked in the blissful birth bubble until the early hours of the morning, until her and her partner were tucked into bed with their daughter.The positive birth stories she listened to before her own birth strengthened her belief in herself. They helped her prepare. They helped her trust. And now she shares her story in the hope that it might do the same for someone else.Curious about Kiata?

Send a text  MMA Docu SeriesDive into the incredible story of Marco Ruas, the barefoot Brazilian who stepped into the UFC octagon before the sport even had a name. Often called the forgotten pioneer, Ruas arrived at UFC 7 in 1995 with a revolutionary well-rounded game—blending Muay Thai devastation, judo throws, jiu-jitsu mastery, and luta livre grappling—that shattered the era of pure specialists. Watch as he dismantles opponents like Larry Cureton with early heel hooks, outstrikes Remco Pardoel, and methodically chops down the massive Paul Varelans with those legendary low kicks that echoed through the arena.We explore his gritty Rio origins, training under legends like Oswaldo Alves and Luis Alves, his vale tudo roots, the rivalry with the Gracies that never fully materialized, his dominant UFC 7 tournament win that proved versatility was the future, later battles against names like Oleg Taktarov and Maurice Smith, and the heartbreaking what-if matchup with Don Frye that fans still debate. Beyond the cage, Ruas's lasting impact shines through as a coach—he mentored Pedro Rizzo, whose devastating leg kicks carried Ruas's influence forward to shape fighters like Jose Aldo.If you're into MMA history, early UFC pioneers, or the evolution from vale tudo to modern mixed martial arts, this mini documentary uncovers why Ruas was truly ahead of his time—the first complete fighter who forced the sport to evolve.Hit play now and discover the man who mastered MMA before it even existed.

Keep winning! Felecia Hatcher CEO of Black Ambition, the national entrepreneurial initiative founded by Grammy-winning artist Pharrell Williams. Black Ambition provides capital, mentorship, mental wellness support, and a nationally competitive platform for Black and Hispanic founders, particularly those from HBCUs and underserved communities. Throughout the conversation, Hatcher breaks down the mission of Black Ambition, how its competition works, success stories, the mentorship pipeline, and her personal entrepreneurial journey from being a self‑described “C student” to running a major national innovation fund. Purpose of the Interview 1. Introduce Black Ambition’s Mission and Impact To explain how Black Ambition funds, mentors, and accelerates Black and Hispanic founders, awarding millions in capital and building pathways to long-term entrepreneurial success. 2. Educate Entrepreneurs on How to Compete Successfully Hatcher breaks down the application process, common mistakes, and how to stand out in one of the nation’s most competitive entrepreneurial prize competitions. 3. Inspire Through Transparency and Personal Storytelling Her journey—from a C student to tech entrepreneur, to CEO working directly with Pharrell—models what perseverance and creativity can achieve. 4. Spread Awareness of Black Ambition Resources & Events She highlights opportunities like Demo Day, masterclasses, mentorship cohorts, and the Fundable Founders Forum. Key Takeaways 1. Black Ambition Creates “Unprecedented Access” for Black & Brown Founders Hatcher emphasizes the organization’s mission of closing opportunity gaps caused by misaligned mentorship and unequal access to funding.Black Ambition invests capital, provides structured mentorship, and connects entrepreneurs to world-class partners (e.g., Louis Vuitton). 2. Highly Competitive National Competition 2,500–3,000 applications annually Only 250 semifinalists Semifinalists enter a three‑month cohort with elite mentorship Top teams advance to Demo Day for capital awards and follow-on support Categories include HBCU, National Finalists, Top Prize, and People’s Choice.. Hatcher stresses: Success leaves clues.Many past winners share insights, host office hours, and guide new applicants. 3. The Process Itself Makes Founders Stronger Hatcher says repeated applications build clarity, sharpen pitches, and transform entrepreneurs—even if they don’t win the first time. She cites an example: Lawrence Phillips, founder of Green Book Global, who succeeded on his third try. 4. Holistic Approach: Mental Health & Wellness Along with capital and mentorship, Black Ambition offers mental-wellness support because entrepreneurship is emotionally taxing.Founders are encountering proximity to wealth and power for the first time, and need guidance on transparency, investor expectations, and emotional resilience. 5. Black Women Are Fastest-Growing Entrepreneurs—But Need Teams Hatcher notes that Black women lead in entrepreneurship but often operate without teams.Black Ambition does not invest in solopreneurs; founders must demonstrate team-building capacity to create economic multiplier effects in communities. 6. Pharrell’s Why: Opening Doors He Once Needed Pharrell invests in Black Ambition because: He once needed others to “believe in him until he could believe in himself.” He wants to dismantle gatekeeping in industries where Black talent exists but opportunity does not. He believes “talent is not equally distributed by zip code, but opportunity can be.” 7. Felecia Hatcher’s Personal Origin Story Her credibility comes from lived experience: A “C student” told she’d never make it to college College dropout Built multiple tech companies Founded Black Tech Week and the Center for Black Innovation Comes from a family of Jamaican farmers and Georgia builders who were “entrepreneurs before the word was used.”. Her takeaway: Creativity builds pathways to success that traditional systems overlook. 8. The Event is Public – and Transformational Black Ambition’s Demo Day is open to the public, creating visibility, inspiration, and networking opportunities for founders and supporters. Notable Quotes (All from the Transcript) On Black Ambition’s Mission “We’ve been building a rocket ship to create unprecedented access to opportunities and resources.”. “People are too comfortable wasting the time of Black entrepreneurs with misaligned resources and low-vibrational mentorship.”.

In this episode of The High Performance Mindset, Dr. Cindra Kamphoff sits down with Ted Ma—leadership strategist, researcher, author, and keynote speaker—to explore what truly separates average leaders from exceptional ones. Earlier in his career, Ted built and led a sales organization of more than 6,000 people across North America. But through that experience, he began asking a deeper question: What actually makes leadership sustainable, impactful, and human? That curiosity led him to study mentorship, trust, confidence, and culture—and to develop the concept of Everyday Mentorship. Throughout the conversation, Ted explains why leadership isn't about titles or authority—it's about the small, daily behaviors that build trust, confidence, and performance over time. He breaks down the "DNA" of high-performing teams, why culture is a true competitive advantage, and the common misconceptions leaders have when trying to shift culture. Ted also shares research-backed insights on what drives engagement and retention, the mental barriers that limit leadership confidence, and practical ways leaders can begin building stronger cultures immediately. This episode is a powerful reminder that high performance doesn't happen by accident—it's built intentionally, one conversation and one courageous leadership decision at a time.     You'll Learn: What Everyday Mentorship really means—and why it matters now more than ever The DNA of high-performing sales teams Why culture is a competitive advantage (not just a buzzword) The biggest misconception leaders have about changing culture Research insights on trust, confidence, and engagement The mental barriers that limit leadership growth One practical framework leaders can implement immediately     Episode Resources & Links Learn more about Ted Ma: https://realtedma.com/ Download our 2025 National Confidence Study: https://confidencestudy.com/ Request a Free Mental Breakthrough Call with Dr. Cindra or her team: https://freementalbreakthroughcall.com/ Learn more about the Mentally Strong Institute: https://mentallystronginstitute.com/

Aaron sits down with Chris Hatch, CEO of Forza Commercial, for a wide-ranging conversation on growing up in a multi-generational real estate family, surviving 2008 and COVID as a developer, and why resilience—not timing—is the real competitive advantage in commercial real estate. Chris shares how his grandfather's early build-to-suits for brands like Arby's shaped his long-term perspective, how a two-year mission trip to New Jersey forged the discipline that later powered his brokerage career, and why walking every fast-food bathroom in a market might be the best education a young broker can get.

For many girls in Uganda, one opportunity can alter the course of their entire future—and that opportunity often begins with education. Around the world, poverty creates barriers that shape a child's path long before adulthood. But through the work of ministries and local partners, those stories are being rewritten with hope, dignity, and the love of Christ. Aaron Griggs joins the show today to share how Cross International is helping young women stay in school, discover their God-given purpose, and step into a future that once felt out of reach. The Mission: Serving the Most Vulnerable Cross International exists to serve some of the world's poorest and most vulnerable children and families for the glory of God. Rather than operating independently, the ministry works through trusted local churches and organizations across Africa and other regions—partners who understand the communities, relationships, and long-term needs on the ground. This approach allows them to provide immediate help—such as food, clean water, and education—while also fostering sustainable, long-term change. Local leaders remain present long after programs begin, ensuring care that is relational, consistent, and rooted in the Gospel. The Everyday Realities of Poverty For many families in countries like Uganda, Malawi, and Zambia, daily challenges are not simply inconvenient—they are life-altering. A single meal may be the only food a child receives all day. Clean water often requires walking for hours to contaminated sources. Preventable diseases spread quickly due to limited medical care. Education is frequently out of reach because families cannot afford school fees. When children cannot attend school, their opportunities shrink dramatically. For girls in particular, the consequences are often more severe—and more permanent. Why Girls Are Especially Vulnerable When resources are scarce, girls are often the first to be pulled out of school. In some communities, families facing desperate financial strain may feel forced to arrange early marriages for daughters—sometimes as young as 11 or 12—simply to survive. This leads to a heartbreaking cycle: Education ends early Marriage and motherhood begin prematurely Economic opportunities disappear Poverty passes from one generation to the next Without intervention, the very pathway that could break the cycle—education—remains inaccessible. Local Partnership in Action: Project Princess Initiative One of Cross International's key ministry partners in Uganda is the Project Princess Initiative, based in Kampala. Together, they walk alongside vulnerable girls by: Helping them stay in school Providing mentorship and spiritual guidance Teaching practical career and life skills Building confidence rooted in their identity in Christ The goal is not only academic success but whole-person transformation—spiritual, emotional, practical, and relational.  As many girls grow older, something remarkable happens: they begin mentoring others. The hope they received becomes the hope they give. Karen's Story: From Hopelessness to Purpose Karen, a young woman from Uganda, once faced a future filled with uncertainty. After her father abandoned the family, her education stopped. Surrounded by poverty, drugs, and despair, she felt trapped and hopeless. Through Project Princess, everything changed. She returned to school. She encountered mentors who reminded her of her worth in Christ. She discovered a future she never thought possible. Karen eventually attended college and studied economics—an opportunity few girls from her background ever experience. Today, she mentors younger girls facing similar challenges and speaks passionately about the role of faith in her transformation. Her story reflects a powerful truth: when education, mentorship, and the Gospel intersect, lives change. Why Faith Matters in Education Cross International's work centers on more than academics. While education opens doors, true transformation begins in the heart. Their approach focuses on the whole person: Physical needs like food and clean water Emotional support through mentorship Practical training for future careers Spiritual formation through prayer and discipleship Education alone can inform the mind. The Gospel renews the heart and reshapes identity. Together, they empower girls to become who God created them to be. How You Can Get Involved Scripture calls believers to care for the vulnerable. Psalm 82:3 urges us to “defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.” For many, generosity becomes a practical way to live out that calling.

Will it be taxable, and do we report it as income? After medical bills and attorney fees, how should we think about tithing on what remains? Our estate is set up in a trust, and we have two adult sons who don't get along. Should we name just one as trustee and power of attorney, or appoint them both? I have $24,000 in credit card debt. A debt management plan would lower my interest rates, but the payments are more than I can afford. If I withdraw $6,000 from my Roth IRA—I'm over 59—to reduce the balance and lower the payment, would that be wise?

Midlife is being redefined at a moment when women are questioning outdated narratives around aging, productivity, and worth. As healthcare gaps widen and cultural messaging pushes anti-aging at all costs, many women are left wondering whether what they're experiencing is a breakdown or a breakthrough. In this episode, Kara Duffy sits down with Dr. Heidi Lescanec, Naturopathic Doctor and creator of the Pink Zones, to explore why menopause is not a crisis, but a recalibration - biologically, emotionally, and culturally. Heidi shares insights from her 20+ years in women's hormone health and her global research into communities where women thrive as they age with vitality and reverence. Together, they unpack the nervous system's role in longevity, the rewiring of the female brain during perimenopause, the research gaps in women's healthcare, and why middle-aged women are emerging as a powerful cultural and political force. This conversation examines what it means to move beyond symptom management, reclaim creative vitality, and redesign systems that honor women at every stage of life, not just their youth. The Powerful Ladies podcast, hosted by business coach and strategist Kara Duffy features candid conversations with entrepreneurs, creatives, athletes, chefs, writers, scientists, and more. Every Wednesday, new episodes explore what it means to lead with purpose, create with intention, and define success on your own terms. Whether you're growing a business, changing careers, or asking bigger questions, these stories remind you: you're not alone, and you're more powerful than you think.

In this episode of Programmatic Digest, Hélène sits down with Tiffany Wade, Media Director at Hunter Blue, for a grounded conversation on community building, mentorship, and leadership as a woman in programmatic and ad tech. Tiffany shares her path into media, from a psychology background and early career pivots to finding her footing through curiosity, asking better questions, and building relationships that opened doors. They talk about what it feels like to be "the only one" in the room, how to stay brave while navigating discomfort, and why finding your community matters, even if you have to build it or move toward it. The conversation also breaks down what mentorship really is, how to approach mentors with clarity, and why mentorship is a two-way exchange. Tiffany explains her servant-leadership approach to mentoring, how she helps mentees get self-aware about their goals, and why networks, resources, and honest feedback can accelerate growth. They close with encouragement for anyone feeling drained by work and life pressures, and Tiffany's reminder to protect your peace by understanding what actually replenishes you, not what self-care is "supposed" to look like.

You prayed for the opportunity.The door opened.So why are you hesitating?In this episode, I break down why you freeze when God answers your prayer. We're talking about fear of success, self-sabotage, imposter syndrome, overthinking your calling, and nervous system dysregulation that shows up when opportunity finally comes.Are you waiting on God — or afraid to move?If you've been procrastinating, overthinking, or circling your next level, this will help you stop hesitating and walk through the open door with clarity and confidence.The door is open. Let's go.

Send a textA shed sale isn't won with pressure—it's won with details, trust, and a clear path from need to solution. We sit down with veteran seller and mentor Hal Hatcher to unpack 15 years of practical wisdom you can put to work today. From the moment a buyer steps onto the lot, Hal shows why first impressions and layout matter: sweep the floors, square the buildings, and don't let a great unit die in a bad spot. Move it, reframe it, and watch attention return. Then, turn the office into a “war room” where buyers sketch placement, doors, and colors. That small act creates ownership before the first signature.We explore the full sales cycle with concrete tactics: prospect beyond walk-ins, build a steady presence on social media, and open every interaction with a name and a face people remember. The process thrives on documentation and follow-up—old-school notebooks, time stamps, and plant verification now pair with CRMs and 3D configurators. When a buyer says “It's expensive,” shift the lens to value and use their benchmark—protecting a Harley, a boat, or holiday keepsakes—to craft a fit that lasts. Smart upgrades like roll-up doors and reinforced floors prevent pain later, turning “price” debates into practical choices that feel right.Hal's playbook is people-first. Read body language, invite the skeptical partner into the design, and give couples room to decide. A simple lunch sign with a return time—and a small courtesy discount—can convert missed moments into loyal customers. That habit of listening and following through builds referrals, which become your best marketing. Along the way, we draw clear lines between mentorship and leadership: invest in your team, match roles to strengths, and never let promises slip. If you sell sheds, haul them, or manufacture them, these lessons lift your close rates and your reputation.If this conversation helps you sell with more confidence and less friction, share it with a teammate, subscribe for more practical episodes, and leave a quick review so others can find us.For more information or to know more about the Shed Geek Podcast visit us at our website.Would you like to receive our weekly newsletter?  Sign up on our website.Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube at the handle @shedgeekpodcast.To be a guest on the Shed Geek Podcast visit our website and fill out the "Contact Us" form.To suggest show topics or ask questions you want answered email us at info@shedgeek.com.This episodes Sponsors:Studio Sponsor: Shed ProIfabIdentigrowSolar BlasterCardinal Manufacturing

Three Black male educators. Three generations of impact. One powerful through-line: belief.In this conversation, Jacob (Cory Gold), Dr. Willie Williams, and Reginald Williams unpack what it means to teach while carrying a mask, showing strength, joy, fairness, and love… while holding grief, pressure, mental health, and the realities of being a young Black man in a profession where you're often the only one.

Steadfast leadership isn't about perfection. It's about presence, purpose, and people. But how can you define it in your current leadership role? Joining me in this month's series are three steadfast leaders, Amy Gant, Jackie Ready, and Maryann Vitale Alles, sharing stories that will help you lead with greater clarity, courage, and consistency. Grab your cafécito and get ready to be inspired.   Meet The Leaders Maryann Vitale Alles is the CEO and President of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Select Properties, one of the Midwest's most respected brokerages. She began her leadership journey with a passion for real estate and helping others build their careers, earning a reputation as a thoughtful and grounded leader. Amy Gant is Senior Vice President and Regional Manager at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Georgia Properties. She came to real estate from the media world and quickly discovered a passion for leadership and developing others.  Jackie Ready is the Broker/Owner of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Panoramic Properties on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. She began in economic development in Laurel, Mississippi, before moving into real estate, eventually becoming a managing broker and then purchasing and rebranding her own brokerage.   Overcoming Adversity and Self-Doubt Each leader shares their stories of overcoming career-defining challenges and moments of self-doubt.  Jackie talks about the difficult season after purchasing her brokerage, balancing staff changes and new motherhood, and how her commitment to her team kept her going. Amy shares how the sudden loss of her family's primary income pushed her into leadership, calling it the best decision of her life. Maryann reflects on building resilience while leading a company through skepticism and doubt, emphasizing the power of transparency and clear communication.  Together, they highlight how authenticity, strong relationships, and supportive teams help leaders and their organizations thrive during uncertainty.   Empowerment, Culture, and Succession  What does true empowerment look like in leadership? Each leader shares how they empower others and how you can do the same for your team. Amy notes that culture isn't surface-level; it's built by setting high standards, holding people accountable, and celebrating wins and learning from failures together. Mentorship, collaboration, and individualized support are key, and a leader's success is reflected in the growth of those they guide.  Succession planning is another focus, with Maryann stressing the importance of helping agents prepare for transitions. Jackie and Amy add that honest conversations and proactive training are essential to keep both seasoned and new talent thriving.   Personal Influences Every leader has someone who shaped their journey, and each of my guests shares who made the biggest impact. Amy expresses deep gratitude for the early guidance I gave her as a new agent, sharing a heartfelt story about how mentorship helped her grow in real estate. Jackie names her mother as her greatest influence. Her mother's immigrant journey, intentional living, and resilience inspired Jackie to prioritize meaningful choices and protect her energy. Maryann credits her father and her business partner, Deb, for guiding her leadership. Her father taught her work ethic and relationship-building from an early age. Deb has always believed in her potential, showing the power of strong, trusted support.   Favorite Books, Advice, and Quotes Amy Gant Advice to Her Younger Self: Remember, "People matter. Treat them with kindness, integrity, and respect, and that's all you'll need to know. Everything else falls into place." Jackie Ready Favorite Book: Atomic Habits by James Clear  Advice to Her Younger Self: "Protect your energy. Really keep your circle with the energy you're seeking, surrounding yourself with the right people." Maryann Vitale Alles Quotes/Beliefs: "Lead with integrity even when it's hard. Making the right decisions over time compounds, and you have to just make the decision and trust your instinct."   When you help another woman rise, we all shine. And that's how we make an impact.

This episode is about the cost of avoiding honest conversations and what really happens when you suppress your needs, boundaries, or truth in relationships.

How do you build enterprise software for the companies that keep the world turning, while also building a leadership culture where people can actually thrive? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I spoke with Kerrie Jordan, Group VP of Product Management at Epicor, about her journey from studying literature to helping shape cloud ERP strategy at a global software company serving more than 20,000 customers worldwide. Kerrie's story is a reminder that there is no single path into technology leadership. Sometimes the foundations are laid in unexpected places, through storytelling, creativity, and a deep curiosity about people. Kerrie shares how her early career in product lifecycle management opened her eyes to the human side of software. Interviewing customers and writing case studies showed her that behind every system implementation is a personal story, a career milestone, or a business trying to survive and grow. That perspective still shapes how she approaches product and marketing today at Epicor, a company recently recognized as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud ERP for Product-Centric Enterprises for the third consecutive year. But this conversation goes far beyond market recognition. We talk openly about burnout, resilience, and the reality of leading through pressure. Kerrie reflects on the importance of protecting time, creating space to reconnect, and building a culture where empathy is practiced, not just discussed. Her view of leadership is grounded in communication, psychological safety, and being tough on problems rather than people. Mentorship is another thread running throughout our discussion. Kerrie explains why powerful mentorship is not passive. It requires vulnerability, preparation, and a willingness to hear difficult advice. A single phrase from a mentor early in her career, "stick-to-itiveness," continues to shape how she approaches hard problems today. We also explore the future of women in manufacturing and technology. Kerrie highlights the need for intentional change across education, early career development, and leadership visibility. She believes technology, particularly AI, can expand access, enable upskilling, and introduce flexibility that supports long-term career growth. At the same time, she makes a simple but powerful point. Women in tech want the same thing as anyone else: the space and autonomy to do their jobs well. From customer co-innovation and community-driven product roadmaps to inclusive leadership under commercial pressure, this episode offers a candid look at what it really takes to lead in enterprise technology today. If you are building products, leading teams, or questioning your own next career step, I think you will find something in Kerrie's story that resonates.

#791 What if the key to finding your perfect business idea isn't in the market — but within yourself? In this first installment of a two-part conversation, host Brien Gearin sits down with Jason VanDevere, founder of Goal Crazy and author of Dream Driven, to explore how entrepreneurs can discover the right business idea and build a path toward meaningful success. Jason shares his personal journey of walking away from a fourth-generation family car dealership to pursue a passion-driven business, ultimately building coaching programs, launching products, and investing in real estate along the way. Together, Brien and Jason dive into the difference between chasing “easy money” versus building a dream-driven business, why desire and clarity matter more than perfection, and practical frameworks — including Jason's “Three L's” — to help aspiring entrepreneurs identify ideas that truly align with their purpose. This episode lays the foundation for turning inspiration into action, setting the stage for Part 2! What we discuss with Jason: + Leaving family business + Planner business origin story + Rental properties freedom + Easy money vs dream driven + Dreaming daily habit + Meaningful goals vs survival mode + Three L framework + Longing, lifting, light criteria + Mentorship importance + Networking for clarity Thank you, Jason!

When public life feels loud and divided, what does quiet faithfulness look like? In the US House of Representatives, every legislative day begins with prayer. This responsibility rests with the chaplain of the house and shapes the daily spiritual rhythms of the institution. "Chaplains aren't combatants. We carry no weapon." On January 3, 2021, Rev. Dr. Margaret Grun Kibben was elected by the House to be its sixty-first chaplain. She offers daily prayer and steady pastoral presence and care in one of the most visible and contested institutions in American life. In this conversation with Mark Labberton, she reflects on vocation, pastoral identity, pluralism, crisis leadership, prayer in public life, and the quiet discipline of blessing those entrusted with leadership. She reflects on her early call to ministry as a teen, her formation as a military chaplain to the Navy, a defining season in Afghanistan, and her unexpected path to serving in the House. Together they discuss confidential care, advising leaders, the ministry of presence, praying across differences, the history of prayer in Congress, and how to bless leaders without turning prayer into a tool of ideology. Episode Highlights "I had a sense of call to ministry when I was about fourteen." "Chaplains are where it matters, when it matters, with what matters." "What is your theology of ministry?" "It is the ninety-nine who were leaving the room that needed the shepherd." "God is on his throne. He hasn't stepped down." About Margaret Grun Kibben Rev. Dr. Margaret Grun Kibben serves as the sixty-first chaplain of the United States House of Representatives. Ordained in the Presbyterian Church (USA), she previously completed a thirty-five-year career in the US Navy, including service as the twenty-sixth chief of Navy chaplains and director of religious ministry for the Department of the Navy. In that role, she advised senior naval leadership and oversaw chaplains serving sailors, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen around the world. She holds degrees from Goucher College and Princeton Theological Seminary and earned a doctor of ministry focused on theology and leadership. Her ministry has included deployments overseas and senior-level advisement in complex, pluralistic environments.

In this powerful conclusion to our nine-part series on healing the mind and brain, Kathy DeGraw reveals how neuroplasticity and biblical truth work together to create lasting transformation. You are not a prisoner of past trauma, fear, anxiety, or negative thinking. God designed your brain to form new neural pathways, and when you align your thoughts with Scripture, you activate supernatural transformation. As you take thoughts captive, declare truth, and meditate on faith instead of fear, you begin renewing your mind in a way that impacts both your mental health and physical healing. This episode dives into how repeated thoughts create brain patterns, how to dismantle destructive cycles, and how to partner with the Holy Spirit for true mind renewal. Through prophetic declaration, biblical meditation, and intentional focus, you can move from stress and torment into peace and clarity. If you are battling anxiety, depression, trauma triggers, or mind-binding spirits, this teaching will equip you with practical tools rooted in both neuroscience and spiritual warfare. It's time to rewire your brain with truth and walk in the mind of Christ. #Neuroplasticity #RenewYourMind #HealingTheMind #ChristianMentalHealth #PropheticSpiritualWarfare **Connect with Us** - Website: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kathydegraw/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathydegraw/ Podcast - Subscribe to our YouTube channel and listen to Kathy's Podcast called Prophetic Spiritual Warfare, or on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/show/3mYPPkP28xqcTzdeoucJZu or Apple podcasts at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/prophetic-spiritual-warfare/id1474710499 **Recommended Resources:** - Receive a free prayer pdf on Warfare Prayer Declarations at https://kathydegrawministries.org/declarations-download - Kathy's training, mentoring and e-courses on Spiritual Warfare, Deliverance and the Prophetic: https://training.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Healed At Last ~ Overcome Sickness and Receive your Physical Healing: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/healed-at-last/ - Mind Battles – Root Out Mental Triggers to Release Peace!: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/product/mind-battles-pre-order-available-january-2023/ -Kathy has several books available on Amazon or kathydegrawministries.org **Support Kathy DeGraw Ministries:** - Give a one-time love offering or consider partnering with us for $15, $35, $75 or any amount!
