Here's the problem with most frugality advice: it makes you feel like a monk who's taken a vow of joylessness. Joe Saul-Sehy and Neighbor Doug gather the roundtable crew—Paula Pant (Afford Anything), Jesse Cramer (Personal Finance for Long-Term Investors), and Andy Hill (Marriage, Kids, and Money)—to prove that frugality isn't about deprivation. It's about designing a life that feels good and costs less. The conversation gets real fast: what's the difference between thoughtful frugality and soul-crushing penny-pinching? How do you cut spending without cutting joy? And why do some people thrive on frugal challenges while others just end up resentful and burnt out? The crew shares their own tactics, from "shopping your fridge" (a shockingly high-ROI habit most people ignore) to the power of frugal sprints instead of permanent deprivation mode. They break down how to align your spending with your actual values instead of society's expectations, why raising income often beats shaving another $3 off your grocery bill, and how to turn frugality into something your kids actually want to participate in (no guilt trips required). You'll also hear about the expenses each of them refuses to cut no matter how frugal they get, because smart money management isn't about eliminating everything; it's about keeping what matters and ditching what doesn't. Plus: stories about mystery freezer leftovers, subscription fees that sneak in like cat burglars, and Doug's perspective on... well, whatever Doug decides matters that day. What You'll Walk Away With: • The difference between frugality that improves your life and penny-pinching that just makes you miserable • Why "shopping your fridge" might be the highest-return grocery habit you'll ever adopt • How to design spending around your actual values instead of just cutting blindly • The power of "frugal sprints"—short-term challenges that work without long-term burnout • How to involve your kids in frugal habits without making them feel deprived • Why focusing on raising income often matters more than obsessing over tiny budget cuts • Which expenses the pros refuse to cut—and why knowing your "worth it" list matters This Episode Is For You If: • You want to save money but refuse to live like you're broke when you're not • Traditional frugality advice makes you feel guilty about things that actually bring you joy • You're trying to cut spending but can't figure out where to start without feeling deprived • You want to model smart money habits for your kids without making them fear spending • You're tired of finance advice that assumes everyone should want the same lifestyle Before You Hit Play, Think About This: What's the one expense you refuse to cut, no matter how frugal you get? And what does that tell you about what actually matters to you? Drop your answer in the comments—we want to know what's on everyone's "worth it" list.

Are you feeling a shift you can't quite explain? Old doors closing, interests changing, your capacity being stretched in ways that don't make sense on paper? You're not crazy—you're being called higher.   If you've been feeling in-between—no longer who you were, not yet where you're going—this conversation will give you language, confirmation, and next steps. And if you sense that part of your calling is to coach, mentor, or walk others through transformation, I'll also share how we do exactly that inside Spirit-Driven Success™ Life Coach Certification—a six-month immersion to help you grow, lead, and serve from a place of alignment, not burnout.

Metrics and "self-tracking" could be making you miserable. In recent years we have seen the rise of tracking metrics such as sleep, mood, habits, steps, water intake, and so much more, along with the pursuit of maintaining streaks, closing your rings, and other ways of gamifying health and wellness habits. However, if you struggle with perfectionism or are a high achiever, these forms of improving your physical and mental health could be causing you more pressure, guilt, and self-criticism than you realize. In this episode, I'll be diving into why, along with how you can use digital tools more mindfully to support your health and well-being, rather than sabotaging them.   In this episode, you will learn: How metric-tracking can negatively reinforce perfectionism The harmful mental health effects of streaks and the gamification of mental and physical health How to use digital tools intentionally, rather than having them control you   Related episodes: When "Balance" Becomes Unhealthy: https://www.becalmwithtati.com/unhealthy-balance/ YouTube: https://youtu.be/NuVSTYstoX4 The Balance Between Self-Compassion & Discipline in Getting Things Done: https://www.becalmwithtati.com/self-compassion-discipline/ YouTube: https://youtu.be/riJqMgaC3rI   Sources: Experiences of using mental health apps to support psychological health and well-being: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/19367244231196768 Self-criticism, goal motivation, and goal progress: https://selfdeterminationtheory.org/SDT/documents/2007_PowersKoestnerZuroff_JSCP.pdf Perfectionism and Eating Disorder Tendencies In Calorie-Tracking App Users: https://research.ebsco.com/c/5x2dc3/search/details/owh4uehmnj?db=aph Research on self-compassion: https://self-compassion.org/what-is-self-compassion/#research-on-self-compassion   Mentioned in episode: Finch App: https://finchcare.com/ How We Feel App: https://howwefeel.org/   ——————— Calmly Coping is a self-improvement podcast for high achievers who struggle with high-functioning anxiety to help you feel more calm, balanced, and confident from within. ———————  

In this episode, we dive into the hidden reason so many of us stay stuck: the paradox of choice. In a world overflowing with career paths, business ideas, and "perfect" next steps, too many options can keep us spinning in fear of choosing wrong. I talk about why our brains get overwhelmed, how endless possibilities dilute satisfaction, and how this shows up when we're burnt out and unsure of our next move. More importantly, I walk you through building the skill of making confident decisions, embracing "good enough," and moving forward without regret so you can finally redesign a life you love.

Why is identity such a crisis in our culture right now? We’re constantly told to “live your truth,” “follow your feelings,” and “be whoever you want to be.” But what if our feelings aren’t always telling us the truth and what if real freedom is actually found somewhere else? Today, I have Dr. JP Foster, senior pastor at Faithful Central Bible Church and co-author (with Dr. Matt Williams) of the new book Finding Freedom in Jesus to discuss these "problematic" statements. The book walks through 21 key identity terms (created in Christ, restored in Christ, confident in Christ), paired with real testimonies and practical reflection questions to help truth move from head to heart.

This was a very long and exhausting day. I had a very hard time making money and ended up at a casino for over 12 hours today. To top it off, on the way home I ended up in a giant snow storm and it took an extra four plus hours to get home.

Your boss is the worst of the worst. Makes you feel lower than an earthworm, undeserving, miserable. That's not a way to live. And certainly not a way to achieve your career goals. In this podcast you'll discover what makes your boss so horrible, and how to use their secret fears and desires to pave your way to success. Listen to all Up! Podcasts here.

Vi går nu ind i december, og der er omkring tyve handelsdage tilbage af aktieåret, der på trods af stormvejr ser ud til at slutte ganske guldrandet. De amerikanske aktier er oppe 16 procent for året i dollartermer, og de europæiske aktier har klaret sit en snert bedre i eurotermer. De danske aktier har til gengæld fået endnu et katastrofalt år. Lektien er: Lad være med at brug al din tid og tanke på danske aktier. C25 ligger i samme kurs som i 2021 og har dermed ikke leveret et kursafkast i fire-fem år. Vi taler også om den tidligere Nationalbankchef, Bodil Nyboe Andersen, der er død i en alder af 85 år. Hun stod ved roret gennem valutakriserne i 90erne og var en af de største danske økonomer nogensinde, lyder vurderingen.

Global fertility rates aren't just falling: the rate of decline is accelerating. From 2006 to 2016, fertility dropped gradually, but since 2016 the rate of decline has increased 4.5-fold. In many wealthy countries, fertility is now below 1.5. While we don't notice it yet, in time that will mean the population halves every 60 years.Rob Wiblin is already a parent and Luisa Rodriguez is about to be, which prompted the two hosts of the show to get together to chat about all things parenting — including why it is that far fewer people want to join them raising kids than did in the past.Links to learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/lrrwWhile “kids are too expensive” is the most common explanation, Rob argues that money can't be the main driver of the change: richer people don't have many more children now, and we see fertility rates crashing even in countries where people are getting much richer.Instead, Rob points to a massive rise in the opportunity cost of time, increasing expectations parents have of themselves, and a global collapse in socialising and coupling up. In the EU, the rate of people aged 25–35 in relationships has dropped by 20% since 1990, which he thinks will “mechanically reduce the number of children.” The overall picture is a big shift in priorities: in the US in 1993, 61% of young people said parenting was an important part of a flourishing life for them, vs just 26% today.That leads Rob and Luisa to discuss what they might do to make the burden of parenting more manageable and attractive to people, including themselves.In this non-typical episode, we take a break from the usual heavy topics to discuss the personal side of bringing new humans into the world, including:Rob's updated list of suggested purchases for new parentsHow parents could try to feel comfortable doing lessHow beliefs about childhood play have changed so radicallyWhat matters and doesn't in childhood safetyWhy the decline in fertility might be impractical to reverseWhether we should care about a population crash in a world of AI automationThis episode was recorded on September 12, 2025.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)We're hiring (00:01:26)Why did Luisa decide to have kids?

David Moyes said he didn't mind seeing one of his Everton players sent off after they had a fight with one another at Old Trafford last night. Probably because the Toffees pulled off a famous win!

November 20, 2025:  This episode breaks down six major stories shaping the future of work and the workplace in 2025. A new study reveals the rise of "Cold Work"—a breakdown of trust between employees and managers marked by hidden behaviors, disengagement, and rising hostility. Google CEO Sundar Pichai makes headlines by claiming the CEO role may be "one of the easier things" for AI to replace, adding fuel to the debate about automation and leadership. The Wall Street Journal reports that the AI boom has become "the most joyless tech revolution ever," with worker anxiety rising even as tech stocks soar. New research from Northeastern shows that workers overwhelmingly prefer retraining over safety nets when facing AI disruption. A delayed U.S. jobs report presents a murky economic picture, combining unexpected job growth with a rising unemployment rate. Meanwhile, Verizon announces 13,000 layoffs, underscoring the turbulence across major industries.

Send us a textGrief makes most of us talk too much. We walk through Job's story to face a hard truth: sincere friends can become miserable comforters when they trade presence for explanations and mistake appearance for reality. Our aim is not to shame anyone who's tried and stumbled, but to rebuild the instincts that actually help the hurting—quiet presence, seasonable words, and practical service.We start with the moment Job's friends get it right: they show up, sit low, and weep. Then we trace the slide into accusation and see what drives it—immature theology, anxious hearts, and sometimes hidden ambition. If you believe God only rules the parts of life that look good to you, you'll try to force tidy causes onto messy pain. But if you trust that God's sovereign motives run deeper than what you can see, you'll gain patience, humility, and the courage to say less and love more. That shift changes everything about how we comfort. Instead of “Let me know if you need anything,” we bring a meal, mow the lawn, wash the car, pay a bill, or simply stay and hold a hand.Along the way we name the subtle temptations: using someone's crisis to elevate ourselves, cloaking judgment as concern, and wielding doctrine without mercy. We contrast that with a better way—reading the room, rehearsing our words in the heart, asking why we need to speak, and acting on what we already know the person needs. Job knew God; his friends did not. That gap is the difference between counsel that heals and counsel that harms.If you've ever wondered what to do for a suffering friend, this conversation will give you a compass and a few concrete steps to take today. Listen, share it with someone who needs courage to show up, and if it helped you, follow the show and leave a review so others can find it.Catch On Fire PodcastsThis channel does a deep dive into the scriptures so as to teach what it means to be...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

Send us a textA weekend of rich fellowship set the stage for a hard, honest walk through Job's story, where comfort meets mystery and faith meets fire. We pick up in Job 2:11–13 and slow down on three verses that many skip: the moment his friends hear, make a plan, show up, weep, and sit with him seven days in silence. That image recalibrates our instincts about care. Presence comes before propositions. Tears before theories. Silence before speeches.From there we widen the lens to the heavenly council most readers overlook. God, not Satan, brings up Job's name. That single fact upends the tidy equation that suffering always signals hidden sin. The conversation challenges our modern reflex to control outcomes and label causes. Job's wife, his friends, and even Satan stumble over the same stone: a thin grasp of God's sovereignty. Job stands apart by receiving both good and evil from God without charging him with wrong. That is not resignation; it is worship born of trust.Together with the panel, we trace how good theology can go wrong in practice. Job's friends will say many true things, but they will misapply them. The lesson for us is sharp and practical: what we believe about God shapes how we treat the hurting. We talk about showing up, letting the grieving speak first, resisting the urge to fix, and using fewer, wiser words. We also name the real front line of spiritual warfare: not online debates, but faithful endurance under trial, refusing to accuse God and learning to vindicate his goodness when the reasons remain hidden.If this conversation helped you rethink comfort, sovereignty, and compassion, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway. Your words help others find hope when they need it most.Catch On Fire PodcastsThis channel does a deep dive into the scriptures so as to teach what it means to be...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

Send us a textThe ash on Job's head and the thorn on Christ's brow seem worlds apart—until you sit with the sorrow long enough to hear the echoes. We took Job 2:12, the image of friends who no longer recognize the man they love, and followed the thread through Isaiah's marred Servant, the garden tomb where Jesus wasn't recognized at first, and all the way back to the first promise in Genesis 3:15. What looks like defeat—a bruised heel, a broken body, seven days of silence—becomes a doorway into victory when we see how Scripture binds its own wounds with hope.We talk about reading the Bible with precision and courage, honoring the real meaning of torn garments and a rent veil, while still letting the patterns teach us. Job remains a type, not the Savior, yet his innocent suffering and steadfast humility help us recognize the form of Christ's path. The incarnation reframes recognition itself: the Son leaves unapproachable light, takes on flesh, and is missed by many who knew the prophecies best. Job, once honored and whole, sits in dust unnoticed by his closest friends. The descent is not the end; it is the shape of redemption.From there, we unpack Genesis 3:15 with fresh clarity. A bruise is temporary, a crushed head is decisive. The cross exposes the serpent's limits; the resurrection makes the verdict public. We also look at the subtle sovereignty in places like Esther, training our eyes to find Christ across genres and centuries. Finally, we linger over seven days of silence as a complete pause that teaches us to wait before we speak, to sit low before God, and to let grief become a teacher rather than a test. If you're ready to see Christ in the places you least expect, press play, share this episode with a friend who loves digging into Scripture, and leave a review to help others find the conversation.Catch On Fire PodcastsThis channel does a deep dive into the scriptures so as to teach what it means to be...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

Send us a textWhat if the kindest thing you can say is nothing at all? We dive into Job's seven days of silence and discover how presence, patience, and humility often outlove even our best arguments. Instead of rushing to fix pain or interpret God's ways, we sit on the ground with those who grieve, let our thoughts marinate, and learn to listen to understand rather than to reply.Our conversation traces the arc of Job's friends—from early tenderness to hard-edged certainty—and why good intentions can sour into condescension when we answer questions no one asked. We share a powerful testimony of a daughter who, at fourteen, simply stayed with her shattered mother after tragic loss. That quiet vigil became a lifeline, proof that sacred restraint protects hearts better than hurried counsel. Along the way, we talk about sovereignty and the “sacred origin” of suffering, not to minimize hurt but to approach it with reverence, as holy ground where God is near even when explanations are not.You'll hear practical ways to comfort without wounding: show up, wait, hold space, and keep your theology from outrunning your love. We sing, we pray, and we remember that true ecclesia can be rough, raw, and profoundly beautiful—ordinary voices, honest tears, and a shared resolve to be still and know. If you've ever wondered how to help a friend in deep sorrow, or how to hold faith when the storm gathers, this conversation offers a quieter, stronger way.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with someone who needs gentle comfort, and leave a review to help others find it.

On episode 247, we welcome Lybi Ma to discuss the thought patterns we get trapped in, the differences between ruminating and deliberating, why avoiding and suppressing our emotions can make them feel more intense, challenging the negative narratives we create about our lives, why our brains are programmed for survival rather than happiness, why Freud was right, spotting cognitive distortions, the importance of mindfulness and gratitude, Lybi's divorce and how she overcame resentment and bitterness, how anxiety affects our bodies, and the importance of perceiving satisfaction as stemming from within. Lybi Ma is the executive editor of Psychology Today. In addition to producing the print magazine, she also guides its website and blog platform, which hosts more than nine hundred authors, academic researchers, and journalists. She edited a Psychology Today book series covering topics such as anger, food addiction, and bipolar disorder.

“How much misery would you endure to save the world from happiness?” That's the mind-bending premise behind Pluribus, the new Apple TV+ series that has Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray buzzing. In this episode of The Ben and Skin Show, the crew dives deep into the show's shocking concept, its Vince Gilligan pedigree, and why the first two episodes feel like a mix of Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and a David Lynch fever dream.Ben and Skin debate whether it's sci-fi or psychological thriller while KT breaks down the jaw-dropping twist that flips the apocalypse genre on its head. Krystina weighs in on the bizarre book themes—dragons, pirates, and romance—and the gang shares the most WTF moment from episode two that had Ben rewinding multiple times asking, “Is this even legal?”

Drawing from psychology's concept of “flow,” she relates it to ministry, emphasizing that leaders thrive when they serve from their true God-given design rather than forced roles. Dr. Banks-Butler highlights the importance of team dynamics, personality styles, and respecting diverse giftings, showing that effective ministry requires valuing each member's unique place in the body of Christ.Purchase The Christian Leader Blueprint book today: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprintbookDownload The Christian Leader Blueprint – Short Guide (Free): https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprint Take the Christian Leader® Self-Assessment (Free):https://www.ryanfranklin.org/clselfassessment Learn more about Christian Leader® Community Coaching:https://www.ryanfranklin.org/communitycoaching YouTube and Audio Podcast: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/leaderpodcast Connect with Ryan: Email: info@ryanfranklin.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rnfranklin/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rnfranklin/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rnfranklin/ Audio mastering by Apostolic Audio: https://www.apostolic-audio.com#leadership, #thoughtleadership, #ministry, #pastor, #pastors, #churches, #leadershiptraining, #churchleader, #churchleaders, #influence, #leadershipdevelopment, #coaching, #executivecoach, #leadershipcoaching, #productivitycoach, #productivity, #growthmindset, #theproductiveleader, #ChristianLeader, #ChristianLeadership, #LeadershipPodcast, #FaithAndBusiness, #PodcastInterview, #ChristianEntrepreneurship, #KingdomImpact, #PodcastInspiration, #LeadershipJourney, #PurposeDriven, #ChristianPodcast, #LeadershipEssentials, #LeadershipFundamentalsSend us a text

 We adore them when their cherubic faces light up the big screen, but when child actors grow up, they're yesterday's news. New Yorker staff writer Adam Gopnik joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the life cycle of the child star from public adoration to fleeting fame, why we won't allow them to age, and the demands the industry makes of them at such a tender age.

Listen in as Dr. Chris Winford gives a message.

In this message, Pastor Levi unpacks Jesus' parable of the workers in the vineyard to reveal why we make ourselves miserable—and it can be summed up in four words: "I was here first." Discover why God's kingdom runs on grace, not grades, and how control, complaining, and comparison are the triple threat stealing your joy. If you've ever struggled with jealousy over God's grace to others or felt entitled because of your spiritual resume, this message will transform spiritual entitlement into joyful gratitude for grace.

The news episode that I wanted to release before the glorious civil war article plopped up. We have a lot of Igor Girkin to catch up to – but the main story ties with the ep. 17 marvelously. Because at this point, mainstream Russian economists, the same who called Lipsits a doomsayer, now have gone past fear and openly admit that an economic collapse is not just inevitable. It's already happening.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

ARTICLE: Young Single Women Are THRIVING...While Men Are Miserable & Lonely by Greg Adams

On today’s episode, Jason discusses how the Buffalo Bills were able to force Patrick Mahomes into one of the worst performances of his NFL career, why it's so hard to figure out which NFL teams are actually good on a week-to-week basis, which two teams he'd pick to make the Super Bowl if he had to decide today (Bills and Philadelphia Eagles), what the NFL needs to change to ensure that we don't see more injuries to quarterbacks like Jayden Daniels and CJ Stroud, and why the Chicago Bears win over the Cincinnati Bengals was the most awesomely bad game of the weekend. Finally, J-Mac closes the show by dispelling the notion that the Los Angeles Dodgers winning the World Series is somehow bad for Major League Baseball. #OddCouple Follow Jason on Twitter and Instagram.
