Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. George C. Fraser. Interview Purpose The purpose of this interview is to educate, challenge, and mobilize listeners—particularly within the Black community—toward financial literacy, economic empowerment, and generational wealth creation. Dr. Fraser uses his platform to stress that financial freedom is not accidental; it is the result of disciplined habits, strategic thinking, and collective economic action. He also emphasizes the critical role of networking, education, and ownership in shifting long‑standing economic disparities. Core Themes Discussed 1. Financial Literacy as a Survival Skill Dr. Fraser repeatedly emphasizes that financial illiteracy is dangerous and self‑defeating. He notes that many people are never formally taught how money works, leading to avoidable financial hardship. He argues that talking openly about money—in families, churches, and communities—is essential for progress. 2. The Three Rules of Financial Freedom Dr. Fraser outlines three foundational rules that, if consistently followed, lead to financial stability and independence: Housing costs should not exceed one week’s income Only borrow money to make money As income increases, cost of living should stay the same or decrease These rules are positioned as practical guardrails that protect individuals from overextension and debt traps. 3. Habits That Keep People Broke The interview details six destructive financial habits, including impulse buying, misuse of credit cards, paying minimum balances, and failing to build an emergency fund. Dr. Fraser stresses that these habits compound over time and prevent long‑term wealth accumulation.txt). 4. Generational Wealth Requires Structure Dr. Fraser introduces four pillars necessary for intergenerational wealth transfer: Proper management of accumulated wealth Real estate ownership Business ownership Intentional investing He explains that income alone does not create wealth; systems and ownership do.txt). 5. From Consumption to Ownership A recurring message is the need to shift from being a consumer class to becoming a producer and merchant class. Dr. Fraser encourages entrepreneurship at every level—no matter how small—to build ownership and control economic outcomes.txt). 6. Networking and Collective Economics Dr. Fraser highlights the importance of strategic networking and introduces concepts behind FraserNet and virtual economic ecosystems designed to connect Black professionals, businesses, and intellectual capital globally. He frames networking as an economic strategy, not a social activity. Key Takeaways Financial freedom follows rules, discipline, and education, not luck Talking openly about money is essential to breaking cycles of poverty Debt should only be used as a tool to produce returns Living below one’s means creates capital for investing Generational wealth requires planning, ownership, and systems Multiple income streams are no longer optional—they are necessary Networking is a vehicle for wealth creation and scale Notable Quotes “Your rent or mortgage should be no more than what you make in a week.” “Only borrow money to make money.”. “As your income increases, your cost of living should decrease or stay the same.”. “Stop living above your means. Stop living within your means. Live below your means—and invest the rest.”. “We are at the bottom of every economic statistic that matters. Education is the answer.”. “There should not be a Black person in America with a single stream of income.” “In America, somebody is always buying and somebody is always selling. Stop doing all the buying—sell something.”. Conclusion Dr. George C. Fraser’s interview serves as a call to action. It challenges listeners to confront unhealthy financial habits, embrace education, prioritize ownership, and build networks that support long‑term economic empowerment. The conversation underscores that true wealth is not about income alone, but about control, discipline, and legacy #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week's theme: Mobilize In this powerful episode of From Fear to Fire, Sandy Rosenthal shares how one conversation after Hurricane Katrina ignited her mission to uncover the truth behind the catastrophic flooding in New Orleans. She explains how engineering failures by the Army Corps of Engineers caused devastating levee collapses and how she worked tirelessly to mobilize public awareness, challenge misinformation, and correct the national narrative. Through persistence, courage, and advocacy, she helped influence major media outlets, including the Associated Press, to accurately report the role of levee failure in the disaster. Throughout the conversation, Sandy discussed leadership, overcoming imposter syndrome, and the importance of speaking up even when facing powerful opposition. Sandy also shares her current mission to mobilize support for engineering failure education so future engineers can learn from past disasters and prevent similar tragedies. The episode delivers an inspiring message about resilience, accountability, and using your voice to create meaningful change, reminding listeners that true leadership often begins when ordinary people choose to stand up for what they know is right. From Fear to Fire: Secrets to Overcome Fear, Embrace Your Gifts and Achieve Success This is the place where real people share real challenges. Where you can find a common bond and uncommon wisdom through their stories. Use tips from the breakthroughs of others to jump-start your success. Speaker, author, adventurer, and host Heather Hansen O'Neill takes you on the journey from fear to fire. Today, we talk about how community advocates mobilized awareness, challenged misinformation surrounding Hurricane Katrina, and turned adversity into a mission for accountability, leadership, and lasting change. Sandy Rosenthal After Hurricane Katrina and the federal levee failures in New Orleans, Sandy Rosenthal founded the nonprofit Levees.org with 25,000 supporters nationwide. Her book––Words Whispered in Water––is about how she exposed the culprit in the catastrophe––the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers––and how the agency spent millions covering up its mistakes. Rosenthal is an advocate for the 62% of the American population living by levees. Sandy hosts a weekly podcast called Beat the Big Guys where she coaches her national audience on how to take on the big guys in their own communities. Rosenthal plays tennis five days a week, practices yoga, teaches her dog silly tricks and spends time every month with her two grandchildren in San Francisco. May 16th – J.

What explains the rise of religious populism in contemporary Turkish politics and society? How does industrialization help to explain change and continuity in social and religious life in Muslim majority countries? In his new book Industrial Islamism: How Authoritarian Movements Mobilize Workers (University of California Press, 2025), Utku Balaban examines Turkey's rapid post-Cold War industrialization and argues that the answers to these questions lie in a class analysis centered on the relationships between employers and employees situated within larger contexts of globalization and historical Islamization. Political and religious transformations occurring in the 1980s and 1990s are not the result of a cultural backlash to or rejection of “Westernization,” or a nostalgia for an idealistic past. Rather, Balaban argues they are related to the rise of a socio-economic-political class he calls the “faubourgeosie” that strategically employ Islamic populism as a method of protecting their interests against other primary class actors. These changes are internal to the mechanics and logics of capitalism as shifts in the traditional relations of production produced new alliances and networks based on small-scale capital accumulation. Balaban's Turkish case study can be applied to other Muslim-majority countries in which small-scale industrialists similarly dealt with economic anxiety and aspirations through recourse to popular Islamist rhetoric not as a specifically moral strategy, but as a political one. Industrial Islamism recently received the best new book in the category of international political economy from the International Studies Association. Dr. Utku Balaban is an Associate Professor of Sociology at Xavier University. He is the author of A Conveyor Belt of Flesh: Urban Space and the Proliferation of Industrial Labor Practices in Istanbul's Garment Industry (2011) and Social Inclusion Practices in Turkey (2015). Dr. Jaclyn Michael is an Associate Professor of Religion at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (USA). She is the author of several articles on Muslim cultural representation, performance, and religious belonging in India and in the United States. Learn more about your ad choices.

Produced by KSQD 90.7, 89.5 & 89.7FM"Be Bold America! ~ Aired May 15, 2026With the 2026 midterm elections looming and democracy on the line, progressive attorney, activist, and author, Gary Lucks, presents in his new book We Are The People fiercely practical, street-level directions for Americans who want to engage beyond posting, protesting, or donating, to actually helping flip the House and Senate this November.Drawing on postmortem data from Activate America, Lucks shows that grassroots volunteers shifted outcomes by 2-4% in battleground districts in 2024 and that Democrats need to flip just three seats in the House and four in the Senate to restore a legislative firewall against the current administration's agenda. Unlike many tomes on the current political situation, We Are the Power tells readers exactly how to close that gap.Gary Lucks, JD, CPEA, is a progressive author, activist, and environmental attorney who has spent four decades at the intersection of law, policy, and sustainability. He is the founder of Progressive Action East Bay and Resistance Action East Bay Indivisible, two of California's most active grassroots political networks. Lucks is also the author of You Are Not Alone: Your Roadmap to Effective Political Action.

Limited Six Part Series: Straight Talk, Better Benefits with The Phia Group Join Dr. Nick and Adam Russo, CEO of The Phia Group for Part 1: Mobilize the Workforce. Adam Russo's personal mission began as a first-generation American determined to fight waste and fraud in healthcare, growing his company from an $8,000 basement startup to serving over 20 million lives. Healthcare costs spiral because insurance removes price transparency; unlike TVs or LASIK, you can't easily comparison shop for a knee surgery. Despite healthcare as the second-largest business expense, most employers spend less than five hours a year innovating their plans or analyzing raw claims data. To cut costs, Phia pays employees 20% cash rewards for finding billing errors (one HR leader received $50,000), turning the workforce into vigilant consumers, this is awesome! In their company, they eliminated premiums, deductibles, and copays for employees, guess what, 99% employee retention rate. Phia created a sustainable model of retention and loyalty, proving that better healthcare for less is achievable.

In this powerful and unflinching conversation, Dr. Samah Jabr explains the psychological realities of Palestinian life under occupation in Gaza. We move beyond headlines to examine the lived experience of genocide, collective trauma, and the systematic use of brutality, torture, and humiliation as tools of control. Dr. Jabr offers a deeply grounded analysis of colonial trauma—how it embeds itself not only in individuals, but in families, communities, and generations. Together, we unpack the psychological impact of ongoing violence, the erosion of dignity, and the ways in which survival itself becomes an act of resistance. Yet this conversation is not only about harm—it is also about healing. We explore community as medicine, the role of collective care, and the power of solidarity across movements. Drawing on liberation psychology, Dr. Jabr reframes mental health beyond individual pathology, calling us toward a more political, relational, and justice-oriented understanding of healing. At its core, this episode is an invitation to witness, to feel, and to consider what revolutionary love looks like in the face of trauma.

Mobility work and stretching are not particularly exciting, which is probably why so many people wait so long to care about them. Christin, Jess S, and Chloe chat about mobility, stretching, and why so many of us know we should do more of it… but don't. They break down what mobility is, why it matters, and how tight hips, stiff shoulders, old injuries, stress, desk jobs, pregnancy, and aging can all show up in the way we move. They also get into the difference between flexibility and control, how compensation patterns can lead to pain somewhere other than the actual problem, why breath work belongs in the routine, and how hydration, nutrition, and stress management can all affect how your body feels. This one is also a good reminder that mobility does not have to take an eternity. A few intentional minutes here and there can go a long way. If you've been feeling stiff, achey, restricted, or like your body is asking for a little more attention lately, this episode will help you think about mobility and stretching in a way that's practical, realistic, and a lot less all-or-nothing.

She highlights healthcare, particularly mental health and drug costs, as key issues for women. Jenkins also addresses the transparency and accomplishments of President Trump, despite his controversial statements. They conclude with a call to action for women to join NFRW chapters and engage in politics.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we're taking time to reflect on some of our favorite takeaways from Mobilize Ohio 2026. Every year, we're amazed by the way God shows up in this space, and this year was no different. Our theme was Surrounded, and it was powerful to see each speaker bring that to life through their own stories and experiences. It all came together in a way that felt both grounding and deeply encouraging. We hope everyone who attended left feeling refreshed and re-energized to continue stepping into this kingdom work.

Anne C Bishop, creator of Brain Body Connect has spent over two decades deciphering the connection between neurology and teaching movement. In this episode, she introduces us to mirror neurons, polyvagal theory and other concepts from neurobiology and how they inform teaching. If you wonder why some cues work on one client but not on another, this episode provides some useful strategies to make your teaching more effective. Anne C Bishop graduated from Harvard University with a Master's Degree in Mind, Brain, and Education. She created Body Brain Connect because she wanted to teach others what she felt was missing in mind-body education: the brain, educational best practices and solid pedagogy.anne_bishop@bodybrainconnect.com https://www.facebook.com/BodyBrainConnect/ LinkedIn Group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4308834/ Download the Pilates Brain Infographic here: https://body-brain-connect.kit.com/961d1739f1 or use this one https://tinyurl.com/pilatesbraininfographic Moving Conversation Socials Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions: Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6 Email: movingconvos@gmail.com IG: @movingconvos FB: Moving Conversations Brian IG: @fit4lifedc FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/ Nora IG: nora.s.john.7 FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7

As movement teachers, our role is to tell clients what to do, how to move and (ideally) how to move better. This often involves correcting their movement patterns through verbal cueing, manual cueing or adding props. In this conversation, Brian and Nora discuss when, how and why to correct or not to correct. Starting with the concept of the “correction continuum” where movement correction runs the gamut from no correcting at all to cueing with such specificity the client hardly moves, we discuss strategies and case studies to illuminate common struggles instructors face when improving client's movement patterns.Moving Conversation Socials Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions: Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6 Email: movingconvos@gmail.com IG: @movingconvos FB: Moving Conversations Brian IG: @fit4lifedc FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/ Nora IG: nora.s.john.7 FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7

Announcement: Uniting Ministries and Generations to Mobilize the Church in PrayerChurch Prayer Leaders Network, Prayershop Publishing, and Presence Pioneers Media are excited to announce the merger of our ministries.For decades, leaders such as Jonathan Graf, Dave & Kim Butts, and others have labored tirelessly to mobilize prayer in churches across America and beyond. Church Prayer Leaders Network (CPLN), Prayershop Publishing, and Prayer Connect magazine have been invaluable resources for thousands of prayer leaders, intercessors, and pastors who are hungry to see revival in their churches and cities. Moving forward, Presence Pioneers Media (PPM) is honored to serve as a steward of the books, content, resources, and relationships developed by CPLN and Prayershop.The co-founders of PPM are Matthew Lilley and Jonathan Friz, both of whom have led various prayer ministries for multiple decades. Along with founding Presence Pioneers, Matthew has helped launch multiple houses of prayer in North Carolina and has served in nationwide leadership roles with ministries such as Awaken the Dawn and Burn 24-7. Jonathan Friz is the founder of 10 Days, a global prayer movement that mobilizes united prayer in hundreds of locations for 10 days in the spring and the fall. Jonathan also helped found the 24-7 Global Family prayer room and the New England Prayer Alliance.With this acquisition, Presence Pioneers Media hopes to build on the foundation laid by the previous generation while reaching new generations with the timeless call to prayer and revival. Technology and forms of communication may evolve from generation to generation, but the truth of God's word is constant. Whether it be books, podcasts, movies, videos, articles, or magazines, our vision is to serve the prayer movement, prayer leaders, and the Church at large with online resources and print materials to fuel intimacy with God, revival, and awakening.This merger is an answer to our prayers. It will allow Church Prayer Leaders Network's mission to continue under the banner of Presence Pioneers Media. And it will increase the impact of Presence Pioneers by reaching more people with more prayer resources than ever before. We are so thankful for the Lord's leading in this transition, and we believe the best is yet to come!Jonathan Graf, President of Church Prayer Leaders NetworkMatthew Lilley, President of Presence PioneersJonathan Friz, Director of Presence Pioneers Media
Following up on our inspiring conversation with Elizabeth Larkam, we discuss ways to design Reformer classes for special populations. Putting a couple of classes on the schedule focusing on clients with osteoporosis, low back pain or pre and post-natal women can bring in a loyal clientele and position you as an instructor with specialized expertise. Working with these clients requires a deeper understanding of the condition and a conscious approach to program design but it can be so rewarding to see how Pilates can truly change lives. Let us know if you are doing this already and how it's going.Moving Conversation Socials Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions: Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6 Email: movingconvos@gmail.com IG: @movingconvos FB: Moving Conversations Brian IG: @fit4lifedc FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/ Nora IG: nora.s.john.7 FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7

Today we are joined by Madeline Black, a Pilates teacher and educator with over 40 years experience changing lives through movement. Madeline has dedicated her life to deepening her understanding of the body in movement through in depth study of manual therapy, fascia and gait in addition to a practical background in dance, Pilates, yoga and related physical disciplines. Today we talk about how she developed her unique approach presented in her book, “Centered: Organizing the Body Through Kinesiology, Movement Theory and Pilates Techniques” and how she uses gait as an essential assessment tool in “Pilates Applications for Health Conditions” co-edited with Elizabeth Larkam. This is a deep dive into the many disciplines that make an effective movement teacher.

https://teachhoops.com/ Injury prevention is the "invisible" component of a championship season. While most coaches focus on tactical execution, the most successful programs are those that can keep their best players on the floor. Prevention starts with the RAMP Protocol (Raise, Activate, Mobilize, Potentiate) during every warm-up. Instead of static stretching—which can actually decrease power output—you should utilize dynamic movements that mimic the lateral slides, jumping, and sprinting required in a game. By preparing the nervous system and the joints for the specific stresses of basketball, you significantly reduce the risk of non-contact injuries like ankle sprains and ACL tears. Effective management also requires a sophisticated approach to Load Management. Modern sports science emphasizes the Acute:Chronic Workload Ratio (ACWR) to identify when a player is in the "danger zone" for overuse injuries. If you suddenly spike a player's minutes or intensity after a layoff, their risk of injury increases exponentially. Ideally, your acute workload (this week) should remain within a specific range of your chronic workload (the average of the last four weeks): Staying within this "sweet spot" ensures that athletes are building resilience without reaching a point of structural failure. Monitoring "Internal Load" through subjective measures like RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) can provide a low-tech way to track this in any gym setting. When an injury does occur, the focus must shift to immediate and evidence-based management. While the "RICE" method was the standard for decades, modern practitioners often favor the PEACE & LOVE protocol, which emphasizes long-term tissue healing over short-term inflammation suppression. Finally, a coach's role in injury management is largely about Return-to-Play Communication. There is often a disconnect between a player's desire to "play through the pain" and their actual physical readiness. Establishing a clear, objective criteria for return—such as "100% pain-free during lateral cutting"—removes the emotion from the decision. By working closely with athletic trainers and parents, you protect the athlete's long-term health and your program's integrity, ensuring that when they return to the court, they are fully prepared to compete at their highest level.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, Democrats and the media create violent, riotous situations through their rhetoric and positions, leading to deaths for which they take no responsibility, instead they blame others like President Trump while ignoring organizers behind the unrest.
