Seasons change — and so does the rhythm of our work.In today's short “Behind the Mic” reflection, I want to tell you a little about why things on the Ideal Practice podcast might sound a little different for a while — and what's coming next.Over the next few months, I'll be alternating between short reflections and replays of some of my favorite episodes that are packed with value. This new rhythm gives me space to create something I'm really excited about — the self-paced, DIY version of my live course, Evolve. Whoooeeeee….!Ever wish you had a roadmap to help establish a solid foundation and grow your practice at your own pace — without adding more to your already full plate? This will be for you.So tune in today for a quick, heartfelt update about honoring your own seasons, working with intention, and our evolution as practice owners.Sometimes the most generous thing we can do is to create space for what's next.That's what I'm doing here. This week's message is brief, but important. And hey! Why don't you shoot me a note and let me know what you think about my plans. Am I on the right track here? :)I think I am.

Control is rooted in fear. Trust is rooted in strength. And when you shift from control to trust, you become a better leader. Control often stems from a fear of being judged, a fear of things going wrong, or a fear of losing influence. I used to believe that control equals competence. The more I managed outcomes, the more successful we would be. But what I eventually learned is that control does not create confidence; it kills it. Trust, on the other hand, unlocks potential. It multiplies leadership. It builds teams who think critically, act boldly, and take ownership for results. In this episode of Reflect Forward, I share how I transformed my leadership by moving from control to trust and why this shift changed everything for me, for StoneAge, and for my team. The turning point During the pandemic, everything changed. Suddenly, I was not in the office every day. People could not walk into my office for a quick answer or to bounce ideas off me. At first, it was disorienting. If I were not the glue holding everything together, what value did I bring? But something surprising happened: my team flourished. They made smart decisions, collaborated effectively, and solved problems without me. That was the moment I realized I had been the roadblock. My need for control, disguised as involvement, had held them back. It was humbling to realize that control does not build leaders. Trust does. As Stephen M. R. Covey says, “Control leads to compliance. Trust leads to commitment.” That realization became one of the most important lessons of my leadership journey. The three dimensions of trust Over time, I developed a simple framework to guide me in leading with trust instead of control. 1. Competence – Believe in their capability. Trust that your people can figure things out, even if they do it differently than you. 2. Character – Believe in their integrity. Know that they will do what is right, even when you are not watching. 3. Connection – Show them they matter. Why trust matters According to research by Paul Zak published in Harvard Business Review, employees in high trust companies report 74 percent less stress, 106 percent more energy, and 50 percent higher productivity than those in low trust environments. Trust is not soft; it is smart. It is the foundation of ownership, performance, and innovation. As Sheryl Sandberg put it, “Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence and making sure that impact lasts in your absence.” That is exactly what trust does. Mic drop moments • “Control does not build leaders. Trust does.” • “Ownership and control cannot coexist.” • “When I stopped trying to control everything, I found something I did not expect: freedom.” • “Coaching is adding considerations without taking back the decision.” Key takeaways 1. Control is rooted in fear. Trust is rooted in strength. Check your motives before you step in. 2. You cannot create ownership without giving up control. Ownership requires autonomy. 3. Trust is active, not passive. Equip people, ask better questions, and coach instead of direct. 4. Develop thinkers, not followers. Build people's confidence in their own judgment. 5. Letting go multiplies your influence. When you lead with trust, leadership spreads.

What happens when Jesus starts messing with your economy? When faith stops being a hobby and starts costing you something? In Acts 19, the people of Ephesus lose their minds because the Gospel hits them right where it hurts—their wallets. Paul preaches that "gods made with hands are not gods," and suddenly the idol industry crashes. That's what the Gospel does—it disrupts business as usual. It threatens the systems that profit from our sin. And when Jesus becomes Lord of your life, all your lesser lords panic. Mic drops: "When faith gets real, it shakes things up." "When Jesus becomes Lord of your life, all your lesser lords panic." "The Gospel wins the day—not by shouting louder, but by outlasting the noise." "The Gospel doesn't just rearrange your playlists—it rewrites your song." This message is called "No Little Disturbance." Because when the real God shows up, all the fake ones start a riot.

After a visit to the Great Land a few years ago, Cat Cushway, her husband and her parents, all from Michigan, felt the pull to make Alaska their home. Settling in Homer, Cat, now with 2 young toddlers, started feeling another tug, this time from God about the impact she should have in Homer with the strengths and passions she had been blessed with.With an extensive background in education, Cat knew it was going to be something related to schooling but when her husband said, "Go for it. Why don't you start a school? Our community needs it. Our kids need it.", she was overwhelmed. That is no small task when you're in the middle of changing diapers and managing a household.But God started giving her reassurances. Things just began falling in place.Today, I'm privileged to chat with Cat about the establishment of yet another school option opening up in Alaska. Revive Academy, proudly affiliated with the Charlie Kirk's TurningPoint Education, is enrolling students now for a September 2026 launch.More than 10% of Homer's K-8th grade public school students have signed up. And that number is growing. Mic drop.I hope you can tune in for the good news.Support the show

Bad audio is one of the fastest ways to lose an audience, no matter how great your content is. But sounding better doesn't have to mean buying piles of gear or learning how to mix audio like a pro. This week, I'm joined by Laura Clapp Davidson, musician, content creator, and market development manager at Shure, who knows exactly how to make creators sound their best.Laura explains how to simplify your setup, fix common mistakes, and pick the right mic for your space and budget. We talk about everything from the basics of guest audio prep to the myths around shotgun mics, boom arms, and USB vs. XLR setups. Laura also shares her approach to starting a podcast, managing sound on the go, and what she's most excited about in the future of creator audio. If you've been putting off upgrading your setup, this episode might just convince you it's time.Key TakeawaysYour mic doesn't need to break the bank: Great sound is about positioning and setup, not price tags.Headphones matter: Always use wired headphones to avoid echo and delay (sorry, AirPods fans).Mic placement beats editing: Get close to the mic; fixing bad audio later only goes so far.Prep your guests: A quick checklist for mics, headphones, and background noise saves hours of editing later.Invest in you: Good audio is a long-term asset. Buy gear that will last, not one you'll replace next year.ResourcesLaura Clapp Davidson: lauraclapp.comPodcast: Song 43 and TMI (The Music Industry) — tmiwithlaura.comShure Microphones: shure.com----------------------Ecamm - Your go-to solution for crafting outstanding live shows and podcasts. - Get 15% off your first payment with promo code JEFF15SocialMediaNewsLive.com - Dive into our website for comprehensive episode breakdowns.Youtube.com - Tune in live, chat with us directly, and be part of the conversation.

This is a fun one. As we know, Litigation Radio said goodbye to longtime host Dave Scriven-Young this summer. But what do we know about our new hosts, Michal “Mic” Rogson and James “Jim” Reeder?  Believe it or not, they didn't know each other well before agreeing to cohost the show. That's a surprise. But they knew “of” each other professionally and share a passion for litigation. In this episode, they interview each other. Not the resume stuff, what makes them tick?  Who knew both hosts, while successful litigators, shared a passion for entertainment, even Broadway? (Hello, any agents out there). While those dreams may never be reached, they agree being an attorney provides that creative outlet. Find out how an African American radio station, childhood dreams, and religion shaped the careers of Mic and Jim. Taking a moment to reflect on your own life journey can help shape the future of your career. What did you want to be, and where are you going?   Have a question, comment, or suggestion for an upcoming episode?

Alan provides a new Me on the Mic episode. Today, Alan describes two big myths inventors often believe. One myth is that there's no way you can market your invention - you can. That myth may cause you to spend $10,000 with a company with big promises, zero results. Tune in to learn the other myth, plus how you can learn to license.

In this confab, Max catches up with Chet—long-time friend of the show, pleb miner mafia stalwart, and one of the most hands-on mining pioneers around. We reflect on the evolution from pleb to pioneer, the value of craft mastery, and the realities of living like a “mining monk” to keep uptime high. Chet opens up about humility in markets, his thesis on used miner pricing, why community matters more than adulation, and how building a circular economy means choosing who you spend your sats with. We dig into balance, burnout, OPSEC trade-offs, and finding purpose beyond number go up—whether that's family, fitness, or a well-built deck at home.Max and Chet also dive into gas mining as the next scrappy frontier, mineral rights and licenses, and how Big Tech's energy appetite will reshape competition. On the privacy front, they discuss Ashigaru's rebirth of the Samourai-style toolset (including its new Whirlpool), practical wallet setups with Cake Wallet and node linking, and the importance of meetups like Lake Satoshi for real-world learning.

Halloween's over—but the darkness didn't get the memo. This week we're talking about what happens when fake power meets real power, when superstition and control games run head-first into Jesus. Spoiler: the darkness loses. Every. Single. Time.

What does the Catholic Church teach about the End Times? Are we in them now? Specifically, the 3 days of darkness prophecies are referenced more than once in Scripture (in both the Old and New Testaments) and are also brought up in the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska and the writings of other saints. Listen as Fr. Chris Alar, MIC “sheds light” on this topic in this episode on the End Times. Become a Marian Helper!Discover more about the Catholic faith on Divine Mercy Plus!

With almost every consumer product, from food to medicines to fuel, transported by truck, the trucking industry is a must-not-fail part of modern society. Yet, as crucial as the trucks are, there are several vulnerabilities that could stop the trucks. Mic, Jeff, and especially Brian (as our professional truck driver) examine those weak points. Computerization and AI have improved efficiency but not reliability. Brian also has an impassioned Public Service Announcement about not cutting off 18-wheelers. You might frighten the truck! If you felt entertained and informed by this DoomCast, consider expressing your satisfaction by buying Mic a cup of coffee at Buy Me A Coffee .

Welcome back to The Happy Mama Movement Podcast.In this Take the Mic episode, I'm honoured to share the voice of Kirsten Calloran — a Mama Rising coach and lactation consultant from County Wicklow, Ireland — whose story reaches straight into the heart of motherhood's deepest transformations. Kirsten invites us into her journey through post-diagnosis motherhood — the moment her son's autism diagnosis opened a second matrescence, a new becoming that reshaped everything she thought she knew about identity, strength, and love.This is a story of grief and grace, of survival and softening. Of finding language for what once felt unspeakable. It's an offering to every mother who's ever wondered where she went — and to those slowly remembering themselves, one tender breath at a time.She talks about:How a child's diagnosis can awaken a second transformation in motherhood.The invisible weight and isolation many caregiving mothers carry.Grief, rage, love, and identity — all existing side by side.The need for spaces that hold mothers, not just their children.The hope that rises when we begin to honour our own becoming.May this conversation remind you: you are not broken, you are becoming — again and again, in ways that matter more than you know.ABOUT KIRSTENKirsten Calloran is a matrescence coach based in Ireland, specialising in post-diagnosis support for mothers (and fathers) of neurodivergent and disabled children.She combines lived experience with professional training to help parents navigate what she calls “post-diagnosis matrescence” — the profound identity shift that begins when the life you imagined for yourself and your child suddenly changes.Through her 1:1 coaching, talks for families in disability services, podcast Fi(ND)ing Motherhood, and compassionate social media presence, Kirsten offers validation, emotional grounding, and practical support to women often left behind by traditional parenting narratives.Her work centres on the belief that when we nurture mothers, we strengthen families — and that no woman should have to lose herself to love her child well.Kirsten lives in Wicklow with her husband, daughter, and young son, whose diagnosis marked the beginning of her own second becoming.Connect with Kirsten:Website: www.finding-motherhood.comPodcast: Fi(ND)ing Motherhood on SpotifyTikTok: @findingmotherhoodcoachInstagram: @findingmotherhoodcoachFacebook: facebook.com/FindingMotherhoodCoach Hosted on Acast.

What if reading the Bible wasn't about getting it right - but about letting it transform your life?In this episode of Two Pastors in a Mic, Cory and Channock unpack Cory's eBook How to Read the Bible. Together they explore what it really means to approach Scripture with curiosity, not certainty - and how understanding covenants, context, and the lens of Jesus changes everything.You'll hear:

Why This Episode Matters:AudioHaze has quietly built an incredibly respected music education platform online. From forensic artist recreations to heartfelt reflections on creativity, his channel has become a masterclass in curiosity and craft. In this conversation, we get into the realities of being a full-time creator, from loneliness and editing marathons to embracing mic bleed, imperfection, and community. His message? The giant leap you're waiting for probably doesn't exist. It's all about the small, painful, necessary steps.Who is AudioHaze:Ricky is the creator behind AudioHaze, a YouTube channel focused on recreating iconic artist sounds through real-world setups and deep music education. His work blends technical expertise, production storytelling, and emotional honesty, showing how creativity thrives not in perfection, but in process. He's collaborated with musicians to recreate everything from The Beatles rooftop sessions to Vulfpeck performances, always breaking down the “how” and the “why” behind great sound.What We Dive Into:* The creative isolation of being a solo creator, and how to build community* Why you don't need hardware or new plugins to make something great* Mic bleed, live setups, and the psychology of real collaboration* The economics of creating: YouTube, Patreon, sponsors, and building income streams* Fear as a creative fuel and how to avoid burning out* The myth of the “big break” and the beauty of slow progressThree Key Takeaways:* The Monumental Leap is a Monumental Lie: Every breakthrough comes from hundreds of small, invisible steps. The daily grind is the real magic.* Create to Connect: The more you open up, even when it's scary, the more meaningful your work becomes.* Build Around What You Love, Not What You Fear: Sustainable success comes from balancing ambition with joy, community, and rest.Before You Go:Think about your own version of small, consistent steps. What's one thing you can repeat today that no one will see, but that'll move you closer to where you want to be a year from now?Chapters:0:00 – Intro1:00 – What AudioHaze Does3:42 – Isolation in Creative Work5:07 – Creating Collaboration Energy9:22 – Embracing Bleed & Imperfection13:13 – Breaking Isolation14:55 – Live First, Fix Later16:54 – Vulnerability & Connection22:00 – The Cost of Success24:00 – Reality vs Expectation29:32 – Process over Plugins33:20 – Finding Your Process35:02 – Plugin Philosophy37:39 – Pressure & Comparison39:25 – Metrics That Matter46:13 – Starting From Zero50:13 – Fear as a Compass54:20 – Learning Through Experience55:21 – Monumental Leaps Are B******t1:00:11 – Where to Find AudioHaze1:00:49 – Quick Hits1:05:44 – Closing Thoughts1:06:21 – OutroList of References from the Interview:Songs / Artists:* Bon Iver* Phoebe Bridgers* Rage Against the Machine* Vulfpeck* Radiohead* Bob Boilen (NPR Tiny Desk)Products / Gear:* SM57 Microphone* Goodhertz (Wow Control, Vulf Compressor, Tone Control)* Scheps Omni Channel* Universal Audio 1176 / LA-2A* Ableton Live* Plunk by AudioHazeConnect with AudioHaze:* YouTube: @AudioHaze* Instagram: @realaudiohaze* Website: AudioHazeConnect with Toru:* Website: torubeat.com* Instagram: @torubeat* YouTube: @torubeat* Spotify: Toru* Apple Music: ToruCredits:This episode was co-produced, engineered and edited by Matthew Diaz.

A client recently said something that completely stopped me in my tracks: "My mindset determines the choices I'm going to make. Don't decide from a shitty mindset — otherwise, I've rigged the game against myself." Mic. Drop. It immediately made me reflect — how often do we do this? How often do we unconsciously (or consciously) make it harder to follow through, succeed, or feel good? In this episode, I'm sharing: What it actually means to rig the game against yourself How to recognize when you're doing it (with real client stories + examples) What it looks like to rig it in your favor instead The mindset shift from “positive” to helpful that changes everything A journaling prompt to help you create your own breakthrough today
