The traditional linear shopping journey has collapsed. Commerce now happens everywhere, and consumers are navigating this omnimodal reality with unprecedented fluidity.Phillip Jackson and Lindsay Trinkle sit down with Melissa Minkow, Global Director of Retail Strategy and Insights at CI&T, to unpack findings from her Retail Tech Reality Check research. Together, they dissect how different platforms serve distinct purposes in the buyer's journey, why "omnichannel" is more relevant than ever, and what happens when everything becomes shoppable but commerce itself becomes invisible.In this episode, we explore how the expanded digital ecosystem is fundamentally reprogramming how consumers engage with content, community, and commerce. With 74% of US consumers now using AI tools in their path to purchase, brands can no longer control the narrative—instead, they must embed themselves intentionally into customer-led conversations across multiple contexts.Commerce Is Invisible; Context Isn'tKey takeaways:Each social platform serves a distinct purpose: Facebook for purchasing, YouTube for discovery, Reddit for research. Context matters more than channel ubiquity.The invisible transaction wins: TikTok succeeds because it's entertainment-first. The less commerce feels like commerce, the more consumers buy.Attribution is broken: Traditional linear models can't capture circular, contextual journeys. Focus on conversion, repeat purchase, and brand awareness—the only metrics you can trust.Search remains unsolved: Basic functionality like filtering furniture by dimensions is still missing. Data quality and search methodology are foundational competitive advantages.Micro-influencers drive outsized impact: 45 passionate referrals matter more than 45,000 followers. The persona of the referrer (picky, experimental, passionate) outweighs reach.AI will reshape holiday 2025: Gifting anxiety makes AI particularly valuable. Consumers use it to avoid looking stupid and navigate uncertain return processes.In-Show Mentions:Melissa Minkow - Global Director of Retail Strategy and Insights, CI&TCI&T Retail Tech Reality Check ResearchNew Modes ResearchAssociated Links:Check out Future Commerce on YouTubeCheck out Future Commerce+ for exclusive content and save on merch and printSubscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce worldListen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?

In this powerful and reflective episode of The Six Figure Author Experiment, Russell and Lee explore what it really means to hit a brick wall in your creative or business journey — and why you shouldn't always try to smash through it. Through stories of coaching calls, spiritual metaphors, and mindset shifts, they unpack how resistance often signals misalignment, not failure. Learn how to recognize when you're forcing the wrong path, how to find “the door” instead of breaking the wall, and how to diagnose whether your challenge is a project, audience, prioritization, or income problem.Topics Covered:* Why most “brick walls” aren't meant to be broken — they're signals, not barriers* Healing limiting beliefs one “brick” at a time instead of fighting the whole wall* The armor we build from childhood and how to safely shed it for true growth* Addition by subtraction: why scaling up often requires doing less, not more* Learning to control inputs, not outputs — and embracing creative surrender* How collaboration and outside perspectives accelerate your author growth* Releasing control and building trust through editing, partnerships, and feedback* The difference between “real” blocks and imagined ones — mindset vs. mechanics* The universe's brick walls as invitations to pivot, not punishments* Understanding when pain or loss is actually clearing the path for expansion* The “lock through” metaphor: waiting for alignment before moving to the next level* How fear disguises itself as over-control or over-effort* The “Happy Compass” framework: diagnosing your true problem* Heart / Project problems – issues inside the book or creative work* Audience problems – not enough or the wrong readers* Prioritization problems – too many low-impact actions* Income problems – conversion or pricing challenges* Why solving the wrong problem keeps authors stuck* Choosing the money: how to double down on what's already working* Micro-practices to open your “flow” with money and creative energy* Nervous system regulation and somatic awareness for sustainable creativity* How embodiment, mindset, and business systems interconnect* From frustration to flow: how to reconnect with joy and direction This is a public episode.

What if your biggest struggles were actually your greatest qualifications for future success? In this episode, discover the power of creating a "hardship resume" by looking back at all the challenges you've already overcome. Learn why writing down things you're grateful for isn't just feel-good advice, but brain training that develops neural circuits to spot opportunities you might otherwise walk right past. We explore how practicing gratitude literally rewires your brain to notice what's working in your favor, while reviewing your past victories reminds you of the strength you already possess. When you start viewing adversity as strength training rather than punishment, every challenge becomes an opportunity to build the muscles you'll need for your next breakthrough.

Number 1,003You'd think we'd be all kinds of lethargic following a Thanksgiving feast, but that's not the case at all. There are all kinds of lively conversations this episode, and things only pick up as time goes on. We have some VERY strong opinions about some VERY serious and VERY stupid things!

On this 305th episode of Take Flight Weekly, I pull back the curtain on the 10 lessons that shaped me the most in 2025. I'm the President of Jameson Sotheby's International Realty, I coach elite-level producers across dozens of markets, and I continue to build my own business. That combination gives me a front-row seat to what separates the 3% from the 97%. These are the real patterns that separate the people who grow from the people who stay stuck. The 10 Patterns That Separate the 3% From the 97% → Lesson 1: Vision Is an Emotional Destination A true vision is a feeling. It's the emotional state you want to experience three years from now—clarity, control, energy, confidence, margin. → Lesson 2: An Extra 0.25% on Every $10M in Production Is $25,000 Elite producers understand the compounding effect of precision. Micro improvements stack, scale, and matter. → Lesson 3: Is Planning Actually Procrastination? Too many advisors hide behind "planning" because it feels productive. But planning without execution is avoidance. Planning becomes procrastination the moment it delays action. → Lesson 4: The 3% Are Willing to Fail to Learn and Grow Failing in public is the entry fee to elite performance. The 3% don't fear failure. They fear stagnation. Most optimize for safety. The elite optimize for growth. → Lesson 5: The Basics Will Always Work. Less Is More. Top performers master the basics at a higher level. When business gets noisy, the elite simplify. Excellence is built through subtraction, not addition. → Lesson 6: The Next Frontier Is Marketing Your Hyper-Local Market Advisors who master hyper-local expertise will own the next decade. The buying public chooses location first. AI is indexing geography at a micro level. Build a brand tied directly to location. → Lesson 7: Only 4% of People Receive Two or More Handwritten Notes Per Year Authenticity stands out. A handwritten note has the highest open rate in the world. Low cost. High impact. Underutilized. → Lesson 8: If You Don't Plant, You Will Not Harvest Input always precedes output. You cannot take a season off from marketing, database management, and relationship nurturing and expect predictable revenue. Keep planting during your busiest months. → Lesson 9: The Top 1% Are Obsessed with Reaching Their Goals Not committed. Obsessed. The top 1% live in complete alignment with their outcomes. Their habits, calendars, and relationships match their goals. Elite performance is engineered. → Lesson 10: Rightsize Is My Word for 2026 Rightsizing is about stripping away clutter. It's about aligning your business, commitments, team, and inputs with your emotional destination. It's not about shrinking. It's about recalibrating to grow in the right direction. Here's my promise heading into 2026: I'm going to keep doing the work, connecting the dots, and bringing you the truth about what separates elite producers from the 97%. You show up and do your part, and I'll show up and do mine. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

High performers often confuse power with pressure, leading to burnout, decision fatigue, and emotional overload. In this episode, Julie teaches practical identity-level tools to stay powerful without collapsing under expectation—and shows how Taylor Swift embodies aligned strength.High-capacity humans are often praised for their strength, stability, and potential. But the very traits that make people trust you can quietly turn into pressure—pressure to carry more, respond faster, hold everything together, and never falter. This episode explores how that pressure creates burnout, decision fatigue, leadership strain, and emotional exhaustion, and why high performers often feel powerful one moment and overwhelmed the next.Julie Holly guides you through the identity-level shift that allows power to be expressed without being performed. You'll learn the psychological mechanisms behind pressure responses, how the nervous system contracts under expectation, and how reclaiming agency creates sustainable strength. This is not behavior modification or another mindset tactic—this is Identity-Level Recalibration, the root transformation that makes every other tool finally work again.To bring these insights to life, Julie draws on Taylor Swift's evolution—her early choice to protect her potential, the rising weight of public projection, and her transformative decision to reclaim authorship of her identity. Her story becomes a powerful mirror for high performers learning to move from pressure into aligned agency.Inside this episode, you'll practice:• Micro-boundaries that restore choice• Identity-first decision making• A simple alignment check for the nervous system• Releasing roles that are no longer yours to carryYou'll leave with a grounded sense of how to stay powerful without feeling pressured—and how to move through your day from alignment, not obligation.Micro Recalibration: Where are you confusing power with pressure? Ask: “What is mine to carry—and what is mine to release?”Micro Recalibration for Teams: What pressure are we unintentionally placing on individuals that should be shared or clarified?If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Dr. Mikael Palner discusses how psilocybin microdosing alters synaptic plasticity in rats and how these brain changes align with shifts in stress resiliancy and compulsive behaviors. He then discusses how these data line up with emerging reports on low-dose psilocybin as helpful in cases of OCD, and hypothesizes a plausible biological basis. ...

Guest: Danielle De Pillis, MS Neuroscience, C-IAYT (12 Petals Wellness)Danielle De Pillis joins Amy from South Minneapolis for a clear-eyed conversation about chronic pain, interoception, and why “sending someone to yoga class” is not the same as yoga therapy. Danielle traces her arc from high-pressure ad agency life into a years-long recovery that rewired her relationship with her body—then back into graduate study in neuroscience at King's College London to understand the brain networks behind what she and her clients were experiencing. This is a grounded dialogue where ancient yoga maps (kośas, guṇas, abhyāsa/vairāgya) meet modern neuroscience and trauma-informed care.Listen forHow chronic sciatic pain (without injury) resolved through tiny, breath-led movements and attention trainingWhy interoception (insula-based networks) is the missing link across PTSD, anxiety, depression, addiction, and eating disordersThe limits of protocols: why yoga therapy must meet the person—not the diagnosisPractical strategies for “sitting is the new smoking” workplacesUsing Yoga Nidra and micro-practices to “bring a region back online” and rebuild brain–body connectionsTrauma-informed considerations for healthcare and why telehealth lowers barriers for clients with PTSDKey ideas & takeawaysPain is a messenger, not a verdict. When we treat it like data, we can adapt habit loops (workload, sitting time, emotional patterns like anger), not just tissues.Attention before ambition. Danielle's recovery hinged on “microscopic movements, breath, mudrā, and curiosity”—a living example of abhyāsa (steady practice) and vairāgya (non-grasping).Interoception is foundational. Many clients say “I'm fine” until they close their eyes and notice otherwise. Building interoceptive literacy (Yoga Nidra body scan, slow breath, graded exposure to sensation) is therapy.No one-size-fits-all. Back pain, for example, can stem from different drivers (biomechanical load, overthinking/rumination, shock/trauma, life stress). Assessment across the pañca-maya kośa clarifies which lever to pull first.Healthcare and gym yoga. A doctor's “try yoga” often misfires; yoga therapy (or therapeutic yoga) individualizes, paces, and is trauma-informed.Maintenance is the path. Bodies require lifelong tending. Danielle uses movement “snacks,” nature walks, and between-client resets—little choices that keep systems regulated.Practical practices mentioned (try these)Micro-movement + breath: Choose one joint/region that feels “offline.” Explore 1–2 minutes of tiny ranges with smooth nasal breath and curiosity. Stop well before pain.Yoga Nidra, targeted: If you consistently “drop out” during a specific body region, create a 10-minute Nidra just for that side/area to rebuild signal.Workday resets: Every 45–60 minutes, stand, walk a block, or do 2–3 shapes while the kettle boils.Green-space therapy: Daily time in nature to shift autonomic state toward safety and restoration.Memorable quotes“Attention is where it's at. People say ‘mindfulness,' but what changed me was attention—and curiosity.” —Danielle“What got disconnected along the way? That's the puzzle yoga therapy helps clients solve.” —Amy“We're not treating a protocol; we're meeting a person, this week.” —DanielleAbout our guestDanielle De Pillis is a yoga therapist and neuroscience-informed practitioner based in Minneapolis.

Every company says emotional intelligence matters.But if EI works… why are so many top performers still stuck?Why do smart people hesitate? Why do leaders plateau? Why do teams still fall apart?This episode starts with how Nada trains EI (emotional intellgience) inside Fortune 500 companies. Then we expose the real truth your career actually runs on.EI helps you talk better.Self-confidence helps you live better.And only one of them gets you out of purgatory.Inside the conversation, you'll see why 83% of professionals struggle with confidence, why comfort kills growth, and how to build the courage to make real moves before life forces your hand.This is one of the most honest talks we've ever had on the show.Inside the Episode • Why emotional intelligence stopped being enough... and how EI without self-confidence becomes performance, not leadership. • Micro-confidence vs self-confidence. Why skill isn't enough. How to stop overthinking and start moving again.• The math of comfort-zone purgatory. Why staying “fine” drains momentum.

From her early affiliate-marketing roots to leading growth at one of the fastest-growing rewards apps, Lisanne unpacks how KashKick designs offers that respect user time, prevent bait-and-switch dynamics, and build long-term trust. She discusses how micro-earnings sustain engagement, why transparency matters more than flashy payouts, and why being relentlessly user-focused, even at the cost of short-term ROAS, can drive the strongest growth stories in mobile today.Key Topics and QuestionsMonetizing leisure time as engagement, how to align offers with user habits.Micro vs. large payouts: why early small rewards matter more for retention.Identifying drop-off, how can you spot value mismatches at first action, not D7.Trust and expectation: showing average, attainable outcomes, not edge cases.Marketplace curation to add only offers users already want, not random buys.User and advertiser transparency for clear education, ratings, and funnel data.Which social platforms are delivering the most reliable new users?How to design for seasoned rewards users versus newcomers.What steps help marketers adapt when retargeting and paid attribution get harder?Why value energy and attitude over traditional credentials when building a team?Which user-focused investments have delivered the clearest returns in long-term retention or brand strength?Timestamps(0:00) – Intro and Lisanne's background in affiliate marketing(2:04) – What KashKick is and how the marketplace works(2:21) – Treating leisure time as a market asset(3:00) – User-first campaign design and offer selection(3:37) – Why genuine interest matters more than payout size(5:29) – Designing offers that respect user time(5:48) – How micro-rewards sustain engagement(7:04) – Balancing small wins with big payout motivation(8:01) – Measuring engagement versus pure volume(8:58) – How KashKick incentivizes fintech and charity actions(11:12) – Building trust through transparency and education(13:03) – Giving partners visibility and fraud prevention(14:09) – Why affiliates and content creators still work(15:40) – Push, email, and the next wave of engagement(16:35) – Playing the long game with user-first growth(18:09) – What Lisanne looks for in new hires(19:00) – Advice for junior marketers(22:16) – Ocala travel tips and hidden springsSelected quotes(3:45) – “If the user isn't genuinely interested, no incentive will change that.

RIP, Jimmy Cliff, the Jamaican musician has died at the age of 81. When it comes to movie star ratings, Merrill firmly believes five stars is one star too many. Horror comedies are incredibly hard to do well, and Merrill loves campy horror! Music producer Benny Blanco’s mother Sandra Levin was the victim of a home invasion in Studio City, in which she hid in her bathroom as her multimillion-dollar home was broken into. Levin is the mother-in-law of Selena Gomez. When it comes to sleep patterns, we’ve got early birds, night owls or normies. Sleep preference is almost entirely genetically predetermined. It’s evolutionary. Gen Z just loves to rename things that have been around since the beginning of forever. The latest?

What if the feeling you're trying to avoid is actually pointing to what you need most? In this episode, Coach Cole and Coach Hayley guide Tory and Jean through compassionate exploration of the urges driving their drinking. Tory describes anticipation, ritual, and the itchy “deprivation sweater” she feels when she skips a drink. Jean shares how isolation and social anxiety feed her belief that she's “not interesting.” Both women dive into how to figure out why you drink - not to shame, but to uncover hidden needs, from creativity and space to self-worth and connection. In Tory's Session: Translating the “deprived/itchy” sensation into data, not danger. How anticipation builds the ritual—and how to disrupt it kindly. Micro-pause practice: five minutes to explore how to figure out why you drink. “No room to grow” → portable creativity kits and boundary conversations. Reframing anger as an unmet-need alert, not a failure. Shifting from measuring pours to measuring alignment and relief. Choosing compassion tools over control tactics. And more topics… In Jean's Session: Social anxiety's storylines: “I'm boring,” “I'll say it wrong,” “I'll stay home.” Worth vs. worthiness feelings: why the difference matters. Hand-on-heart anchors and compassionate self-talk before events. Understanding how to figure out why you drink to stop pre-event numbing. Low-stakes connection reps to unwind isolation loops. “I'm in the process of…” turnarounds that feel true (not toxic positivity). Progress over perfection: practicing courage in small doses. And more… Cole Harvey is a certified Naked Mind Senior Coach. For years, he felt lost and used alcohol as a way to cope, until he decided to go alcohol-free and focus on finding his purpose.

Welcome back to the mic, Adam Peek here! That was a fantastic chat with Clara and Benoît from Lactips. They're doing some seriously innovative stuff over in France, tackling the microplastics problem head-on with a bio-based, water-soluble, and fully biodegradable material made from milk protein.If you're in the packaging space, this is the kind of game-changing innovation you need to be paying attention to. It hits the trifecta: Performance, Planet, and Policy.Here's a breakdown of what we discussed and why Lactips is a company to watch:

Imagine turning a sketch into a sellable product without begging a factory for a slot or wiring cash for a risky MOQ. That's the promise of CNC: computer-controlled cutting that gives you precision, repeatability, and creative freedom on your own schedule. We sit down with mechanical-engineer-turned-creator Winston Moy to unpack what CNC milling really is, how the workflow works, and why you don't need an engineering degree to get real results.We start with first principles: CAD for design, CAM for toolpaths, and hands-on setup for safe, accurate cuts. Winston explains what a capable $3k–$5k machine can do with wood, plastics, composites, and aluminum, and how clear product ideas shorten the learning curve and speed up ROI. We talk through the practical economics—paying off a machine in months, launching with ten units instead of a thousand, and using your shop as a prototype and pilot plant. When a product pops, you can outsource batches and keep your spindle focused on the next winner.Support and community make the difference between tinkering and shipping. We highlight Carbide 3D's training, cross-trained staff, and a “mistakes are on us” window that lowers fear and accelerates learning. Then we bridge art and engineering: choosing materials, toolpaths, and finishes that serve both function and feel. Winston also shares how storytelling turns process into marketing, from behind-the-scenes builds to niche product drops that customers can't help but share.We zoom out to the future of digital fabrication, where CNC lives alongside 3D printing and fast-turn services to erase friction between imagination and inventory. If you're tired of long lead times, high MOQs, and guesswork, this conversation gives you a clear roadmap: pick one product, learn the minimal workflow, ship a small batch, gather feedback, iterate, and scale with confidence.Enjoy the episode?

A lot of team leaders are trying to grow right now, but very few know how to scale without burning out, losing culture, or drowning in problems that show up the moment the business gets bigger. That tension is exactly where Lindsay Stevens built her strength. And the way she talks about these challenges will make every real estate leader stop and think.   On this episode of the GRIT Podcast, Brian Charlesworth sits down with Lindsay, co-owner and team leader of Stevens Real Estate, to uncover how she went from overwhelmed agent to running one of the fastest-growing teams in her market.    The twist is that none of it came from perfect planning. It came from saying yes to uncomfortable moments, including being thrown onto a five-thousand-person stage with one week to prepare. She also breaks down the discipline required to survive New York's long 120-day transaction cycle. It is the kind of cycle that forces leaders to either master their systems or get buried by them.   Lindsay talks about the seasons she had to fight through distractions, doubt, and long days that made her question whether she was even built for leadership. She shares a simple line that keeps her centered. "Life is hard. Real estate is hard. But the sun comes up tomorrow." It is the kind of line that hits differently when you hear the story behind it.   Brian and Lindsay also break down a moment that shifted their entire operation. Dialing in their Sisu stages, statuses, and tagging finally removed the chaos inside New York's long transaction cycle, and it changed the way their agents performed. As she puts it, "You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems."   Top Takeaways:   (2:23) Saying yes to a 5000-person stage (9:51) Breakthroughs after wanting to quit (12:02) CEO vs. team leader roles in a business (14:21) How Sisu rebuilt transaction flow (21:08) The power of proximity and fast execution (32:19) Scaling with leverage and a new COO (32:12) Working on the business, not in the business (37:58) Why systems come before 20 agents (38:28) Micro commitments and predictable wins in Sisu (42:21) AI as a business partner and coach (45:00) Why AI will not replace relationships in real estate   If you want an honest look at growth, leadership, and the real work behind building a strong team, this episode with Lindsay will pull you in from the first few minutes.   About Lindsay Stevens   Lindsay Stevens is a Hudson Valley native and co-founder of Stevens Realty Group, featured on HGTV's House Hunters. She led New Paltz as the top sales agent in 2017, 2018, and 2019 while growing the firm into a multi-million dollar real estate and property management company. With a background in Legal Studies and Business from UMass Amherst, she has worked in sales, marketing, and communications with companies like Edelman and Morgan Stanley. Lindsay is also a mother of two and an active runner who has deep roots in the Hudson Valley community.   Connect with Lindsay: LinkedIn

Episode 294 - "Micro-Gratitude"Big gratitude gets all the attention — vision boards, journals, grand declarations. But sometimes, the most powerful shifts come from the smallest thank-yous. In this episode, Michelle and Scott explore micro-gratitude — the subtle, moment-by-moment practice of noticing what's good right now. They'll talk about how micro-gratitude rewires your brain for resilience, lowers stress, and builds emotional momentum when life feels heavy. You'll learn how to weave appreciation into the tiniest corners of your day — your first sip of coffee, a stranger's kindness, and the silence between tasks. Because gratitude doesn't have to be big to be transformative. It just has to be real—and repeated.Keeping Your Sh*t Together in a Stressed World is a podcast hosted by Michelle Post, MA, LMFT and Scott Grossberg, JD, CLC, CCH, NLP, and is 30 minutes of raw, irreverent, and results-oriented discussion with one purpose in mind . . . to help you cope, thrive, and survive the craziness that's going on in the world.As a reminder, our “Get Your Sh*t Together” Home Retreat can be found here:http://thinkingmagically.com/retreatReplays of prior episodes can be found at:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/scott-grossbergYou can also join our Facebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/keepingystMichelle Post can be reached at michelle@postinternationalinc.com http://postinternationalinc.com

Here is the link: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://macroandpaid.com/---Social workers are living through one of the biggest career shifts our field has seen in a long time. And the truth is this: so many of you are doing work every single day that carries weight, complexity, intention, and real impact, but the way you describe your work experiences is quietly minimizing the depth of what you're contributing to the organizations, communities, and populations you work with as a case manager.In this episode of the Macro Social Work Your Way Podcast with Marthea Pitts, MSW, I walk through the three most common ways social workers unintentionally devalue their social work career experience without even realizing it. Because the truth is the tiny details you skip over. The moments you downplay. The stories you tell without telling the whole process. Intentionally or unintentionally. All of it shapes how people read your value in the job market.I'm breaking down how this shows up, how it impacts your career confidence, and how it affects how hiring managers read your experience when you're applying and competing for macro social work jobs. This conversation is honest, real, and necessary, especially for social workers who know they are ready for more significant work but have not been taught how to discuss what they've already accomplished.If you want to learn how to identify your most valuable transferable skills, translate them to macro social work employers, and position your experience to compete for macro social work jobs, work with me inside the next cohort of the Micro to Macro Career Accelerator.

Are micro schools the future of personalized learning? In this high-impact episode of Shifting Schools, Jeff Utecht sits down with David K. Richards, CEO of ChangeMaker Education, to break down one of the fastest-growing movements in the education ecosystem: microschools. With over 125,000 micro schools and 1.5 million students already learning in small, relationship-centered environments across the U.S., this episode delivers a deeply practical and future-focused look at why educators, parents, and policymakers are paying attention. What You'll Learn in This Episode What a micro school really is — and why its flexible size (5–150 learners) unlocks personalization  How the pandemic accelerated the movement, doubling homeschooling rates and driving families to seek community-based alternatives. Why micro schools are not new—they're the modern reimagining of the one-room schoolhouse. How micro schools fit across sectors: private, charter, district-partnered, and homeschool learning centers. The regulatory landscape educators must understand—voucher programs, ESAs, accreditation, and state-by-state flexibility. Key Insight From David Richards Teachers often underestimate how many entrepreneurial skills they already have—project management, relationship-building, instructional design, crisis navigation, and creative problem-solving. Micro schools simply give them a pathway to use those skills with autonomy, community connection, and purpose. Featured Guest David K.

“Science disproves God.”You've heard it. Your kids hear it at school. Atheists repeat it like it's settled fact.But here's the truth: science only exists because early scientists believed in an intelligent Creator.Newton, Galileo, Kepler, Bacon — the fathers of modern science — all believed the universe was rational, ordered, and discoverable because a rational God created it.In this episode, we break down:✅ Why science actually depends on a Creator✅ Why the Big Bang points to God, not away from Him✅ Why something must be eternal — and it can't be the universe✅ Micro vs macro evolution (and why Christians should know the difference)✅ Why the Bible never states the age of the earth✅ Multiple Christian interpretations of Genesis — without panic✅ Why “everything came from nothing” is a bigger miracle than the Resurrection✅ How to explain this confidently as an ambassador for ChristIf you're a Christian dad, you MUST be able to answer these questions for your kids: • “Does evolution disprove the Bible?” • “Did Jesus and science ever conflict?” • “If there was a Big Bang, who caused it?” • “Does Christianity contradict astronomy or physics?” • “Where did everything come from?”This video equips you with clear, simple, powerful answers rooted in logic, Scripture, and science.Stop being intimidated by the science vs religion debate.There is no conflict — only clarity.Follow Men's AllianceInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mensalliancetribe/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mensalliancetribeTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mensalliancetribeWebsite - https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/Explore Battlefield Coaching today and find yourself a Coach with experience overcoming a battle you are currently facing - https://battlefieldcoaching.comOrder the Book - Answer With Truth: The Ambassador's Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually - https://amzn.to/3BmnuKV

You don't need an hour of meditation. You need a minute of presence.In the busiest season of the year, when time feels scarce and your needs get pushed to the background, stillness might be the most powerful healing tool you have, and it doesn't require a schedule, a ceremony, or a quiet room.In today's episode of The 12 Days of Holiday Resilience, we explore why stillness is a biological necessity, not a luxury. Even a single moment of intentional pause signals safety to your nervous system, steadies your heart rate, restores digestion, and activates repair pathways essential for healing from chronic or serious illness.We'll talk about why self-care often collapses under holiday pressure, and how micro-rituals — tiny, repeatable cues of safety — can keep you grounded no matter how chaotic life becomes.By the end of this episode, you'll discover:Why stillness flips your physiology from stress to repair, boosting immune function and lowering inflammation.How micro self-care practices work even when you're exhausted, traveling, or overwhelmed.Four simple micro-rituals, like the 60-second check-in, the pause between tasks, grounding during a healing beverage, and the 3-3-3 reset — that instantly anchor you back into your body.Why consistency beats intensity, and how neuroscientists have shown micro-habits to be the most sustainable form of self-care.How presence rebuilds trust between you and your body, restoring a sense of wholeness and inner safety.You'll walk away with a self-care routine so small and powerful it becomes impossible to lose, even in the middle of the holidays.Listen now to reclaim the moments that belong to you, the pauses, the breaths, and the grounding rituals that keep you connected to your healing path.Join us tomorrow for Day 4, where we'll explore the emotional undercurrent of the season — how to navigate big feelings, unexpected grief, and the quiet ache the holidays can awaken, while still finding gratitude and meaning.DisclaimerThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

Host Kevin and Alan break down why most people never escape the loop that keeps them underperforming, even when they're capable of far more. They reveal the hidden pattern behind stalled confidence, inconsistent action, and the identity traps that quietly shape your results for years. Through real stories, early speaking failures, and thousands of coaching reps, they show how belief, behavior, and self-awareness interact and why the wrong loop will shrink your entire life without you noticing.This isn't motivation. It's the framework that changed their trajectory and continues to guide high performers who want results that match their potential.Digital Asset: Confidence Framework - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1e6VZopl8JamCbS4jr9c0Tncrff5MOm1T/view?usp=drive_link Learn more about:Join our private Facebook community, “Next Level Nation,” to grow alongside people who are committed to improvement. - https://www.facebook.com/groups/459320958216700Think deeper, grow faster.

Live from Morgan Stanley's Asian Pacific Summit, our Chief Fixed Income Strategist Vishy Tirupattur explains why micro trends are likely to be more on focus than macro shocks next year.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Vishy Tirupattur: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I am Vishy Tirupattur, Morgan Stanley's Chief Fixed Income Strategist, coming to you from the Morgan Stanley Asia Pacific Summit underway in Singapore. Much of the client conversation at the summit was about the market outlook for 2026. In the last few days, you've heard from my colleagues about our outlook for the global economy, equities and cross asset markets. On today's podcast, I will focus on the outlook and key themes ahead for the global fixed income market. It's Thursday, November 20th at 10am in Singapore. Last year, the difficulty of predicting policy really complicated our task. This year brings its own challenges. But what we see is micro trends driving the markets in ways that adapt to a generally positive stance on risk. Our economists' base case sees continued disinflation and growth converging towards potential by 2027, with the possibility that the potential itself improves. Notably, they present upside scenarios exploring stronger demand and rising productivity, while the downside case remains relatively benign. The U.S. remains pivotal, and the U.S. led shocks – positive and negative – should drive outcomes for the global economy and markets in 2026, In 2025, the combination of a resilient U.S. consumer supported by healthy balance sheets and rising wealth alongside robust AI driven CapEx has underpinned growth and helped avoid recession despite the headwinds of trade policy. These same dynamics should continue to support the baseline outlook in 2026, even though the path will be likely uneven. The Fed faces a familiar conundrum softening labor markets versus solid spending. The baseline assumes cuts to neutral as unemployment rises, followed by a recovery in the second half. Outside the U.S., most economies trend towards potential growth and neutral policy rates by end of 2026, but the timing and the trajectory vary. And as in recent years, global outcomes will likely hinge on U.S.-led effects and their spillovers. Our macro strategists expect government bond yields to stay range bound, and it is really a story of two halves. A front-loaded rally as the Fed cuts 50 basis points, pushing 10-year yields lower by mid-year before drifting higher into the fourth quarter. Curve steepening remains our high conviction call, especially two stents curve. The dollar follows a similar arc, softening mid-year, and then rebounding into the year end. AI financing moves to the forefront putting credit markets in focus, a topic that has come up repeatedly in every single meeting I've had in Singapore so far. So, from unsecured to structured and securitized credit in both public markets and private markets, credit will likely play a central role in enabling the next wave of AI related investments. Our credit and securitized credit strategists see data center financing in 2026 dominated by investment rate issuance. While fundamentals in corporate and securitized credit remain solid, the very scale of issuance ahead points to spread widening investment rate and in data center related ABS. Carry remains a key driver for credit returns, but dispersion should rise. Segments relatively insulated from the AI related supply such as U.S. high yield, agency brokerage backed securities, non-agency CMBS and RMBS are poised to outperform. We favor agency MBS and senior securitized tranches over U.S. investment grade, especially as domestic bank demand for agency MBS returns post finalization of the Basel III. 2025 was a tough year to navigate, and while we are constructive on 2026, it won't be a walk in the park. The challenges ahead look different. Less about macro shocks, more about micro shifts and market nuance. More details in our outlooks published just a few days ago.
