Podcasts about Momentum

In this episode of Workday Playdate, Erin explores why speaking up at work has far less to do with competence and far more to do with confidence. If you've ever left a meeting thinking, "I should have said something," you're not alone—and you're probably more prepared than you think. If you've ever had the perfect idea thirty seconds too late, watched someone else say what you were thinking, or struggled to find your voice in meetings, this conversation is for you. Using improv principles and practical strategies, Erin shares how to stop disappearing on the back line and start contributing with more confidence, more quickly, and more consistently. Inside This Episode: Speaking Up Is Usually a Confidence Issue, Not a Competence Issue: Most people already know what they want to say, they just hesitate when the moment arrives. Erin explores why the gap between thinking and speaking is often driven by fear, not ability. Silence Feels Safe, But It Can Make You Invisible: Staying quiet may protect you from saying the wrong thing, but it can also prevent others from seeing your ideas, expertise, and leadership potential. Early and frequent participation changes how people experience you. Confidence Is Built Through Reps, Not Perfection: The goal isn't to feel ready before you contribute. The goal is to contribute and let confidence catch up. Erin shares why speaking up is a skill built through practice, not personality. The SPEAK Framework Makes Participation Easier: Erin introduces the improv-inspired SPEAK framework to help you contribute more naturally in meetings: Set up the scene, Preload your line, Enter early, Anchor the room, and Keep building. Consistency Changes Your Identity: Speaking up once feels brave. Speaking up repeatedly changes how you see yourself and how others see you. Confidence isn't built in a single moment; it's built in patterns. What to Do Now: Set Up the Scene: Before your next meeting, identify one idea, question, or perspective you want to contribute before the conversation begins. Preload Your Line: Prepare a simple opener such as, "One thing that stands out to me is..." or "I'd like to build on that idea..." so you're not starting from zero when the moment arrives. Enter Early: Challenge yourself to speak within the first ten minutes of your next meeting. Momentum is easier to maintain than it is to create. Anchor the Room: Remember that your contribution doesn't just help you—it creates permission for others to participate, ask questions, and share ideas too. Keep Building: Confidence is earned through repetition. Every time you speak up, you're collecting evidence that your voice belongs in the room. Your Freebie You're calm, capable, and composed… until things take an unexpected turn (as they tend to do)!

874 · The Walt Disney World Time Capsule - What Would You Put in the Box?It is 2076. Someone digs up a sealed time capsule in Walt Disney World. What did we choose to leave them?This week on WDW Radio, we build a Walt Disney World time capsule - a snapshot of the parks exactly as they exist in 2026. And there is one rule attached to it that changes every single answer.One attraction. One resort. One song. One snack. One smell. One sound. One price. More than a dozen categories in all, spanning Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios and Disney's Animal Kingdom, and the Walt Disney World resorts - and none of them are as easy as they sound.Along the way: the real time capsules Disney has already buried at Disneyland and Walt Disney World, and the wonderfully surprising things they chose to seal inside them. The pick that broke the rule in the very first category. And the one thing we each wanted to make sure went in that box, no matter what.Plus a final item that is not an object at all.So what would you put in the box? Call the voicemail and tell me, and I will play your answers on a future show.

Higher food prices continue to change the way Americans shop, according to a new report from CoBank's Knowledge Exchange, and regenerative agriculture continues to gain momentum across the country.

What if the answer you're looking for isn't missing? What if it is already right in front of you, but you can't see it because you are looking for it in the wrong form? In this episode, I share a simple story about a phone holder that was sitting directly in front of my son. He genuinely could not see it because he was looking for the box it used to come in rather than the object itself. In this episode, I share a fictionalized coaching story that illustrates how the same thing can happen in life and business. We can become so committed to a particular frame, assumption, or version of the answer that we overlook the people, relationships, resources, and possibilities already available to us. Sometimes the problem is that we are simply solving the problem inside a frame that excludes the answer. I also explain why insight alone is not enough. Momentum begins when clarity leads to a next aligned step, that step becomes a committed activity on the calendar, and we protect our focus long enough to take action and generate useful feedback. Questions for Reflection What disruption, loss, obstacle, or inconvenience am I currently facing? What am I assuming this means? What desired outcome am I pursuing right now? Is it possible that this disruption contains an asset, relationship, or bridge I have not yet recognized? How might I choose to respond to this situation in a way that serves me? What is one next aligned action I could take within the next 24 hours to test this possibility? Once you identify that action, put it on your calendar and protect your focus during that block of time. Let's Begin a Conversation If this episode stirred something in you, email me at cliff@cliffravenscraft.com. Tell me the desired outcome you are working toward and what currently feels like the disruption, obstacle, or loss standing in your way. I personally read every email, and we can begin a conversation from there.

Sin rarely wrecks a life overnight, it gains momentum one compromise at a time. In this message from the life of Samson, Pastor Brandon reveals how unrestrained sin grows, where it leads, and how God's grace still offers a way back.

Ever notice how hard it is to start something — but how much easier it gets once you're actually moving? In this message, Pastor Chad unpacks the Parable of the Talents and reveals a truth that will reshape how you think about fear, faithfulness, and forward motion: God doesn't just want you moving. He wants you moving with momentum.In this episode:Why fear is really a byproduct of mistrust, not lazinessWhat David's private battles with a lion and a bear taught him before he ever faced GoliathWhy the one-talent servant wasn't condemned for failing — he was condemned for refusing to moveHow momentum is easier to lose than to gain (and how to protect it)Why God's guidance is progressive, not panoramic — He rarely gives the second instruction before the first one is obeyedHow distraction, not persecution, is one of the enemy's greatest weapons against your momentumKey Scripture: "For the one who has will be given more, until he overflows with abundance." — Matthew 25:29 (TPT)

Brent-ruolie verhandel rondom 88 Amerikaanse dollar per vat, aangevuur deur toenemende vyandelikhede tussen die VSA en Iran oor die Straat van Hormuz.

You're doing the work. You've got some momentum. But growth feels heavier than it should and you're not sure what's getting in the way. This episode is for you.Candy Motzek sits down with Adam Roach, founder of I Love Coaching Co. and coach to established coaches across four continents, to talk about the four-phase model that takes a coaching practice from uncertain to $360K and beyond without adding more hours or complexity.Adam shares why going inside before you go out is the foundation of everything, what happens when coaches choose the wrong avatar, and why the premise of your offer, not the methodology, is what actually signs clients and keeps them. He also talks honestly about his beach chair moment that made him walk away from real estate franchises and a software company to build a community of coaches, and why success and significance are two very different things.They also get into morning routines, cortisol, and the 30-minute walk that changed everything for Adam six years ago and still starts every single day.Warm, direct, and genuinely useful.Grab the free course, Stop Guessing and Start Signing Clients, and start building a coaching business that's actually yours: https://candymotzek.lpages.co/vfo/Want to see what's actually working for coaches right now?

Mid-Year Check-In: Recalibrate Your Goals, Priorities & Momentum | Further Your Lifestyle Ep. 268Watch here: https://youtu.be/FUvWIWmUrLcChris hosts Episode 268 of the Further Your Lifestyle podcast as a mid-year check-in to help listeners pause, breathe, and recalibrate without self-judgment. He guides a reality-based self-audit through key questions: what has improved, what feels heavier, what lessons keep repeating, whether daily actions match stated priorities, what you've been tolerating, and whether you're truly moving forward or just staying busy. He then focuses on recalibration—what burdens to stop carrying, what deserves more attention, and whether repeating the last six months would make you happy. Chris offers three paths: if you're winning, double down and compound; if drifting, recommit now; if struggling, simplify and focus on one next step. He emphasizes meaningful progress, self-comparison only, and shares a business turnaround example, including managing micro vs. macro factors like shipping cost increases.00:00 Midyear Check In01:29 Reality Check Questions03:48 Alignment With Priorities06:12 Busy Versus Progress06:59 Recalibrate And Let Go08:28 Focus Your Attention10:13 Next Six Months Test10:51 Winning Drifting Struggling12:30 Make The Year Meaningful13:56 Second Half Mindset14:38 Personal Business Example16:17 Wrap Up And ChallengePodcast Sponsors:Robert PiperHi Voltage BargainsEthan “Rooshock” The BOLO Hunter PODCAST: https://www.furtheryourlifestyle.com/► SUBSCRIBE to the podcast on▹ Spotify | https://bit.ly/FYL_Spotify▹ Apple Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_Apple▹ Google Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_GooglePod► Let's CONNECT on social media:▹ instagram | http://www.instagram.com/furtheryourlifestyle▹ email | hello@furtheryourlifestyle.comMUSIC:» via https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/6hfvrvContinue the conversation:  @furtheryourlifestyleJoin the Newsletter: check it out

On this episode of The Buzz, powered by Zebra Technologies, hosts Scott Luton and special guest co-host Amber Salley are joined by Rich Carey of MFG.inc to break down the biggest headlines shaping global supply chain. From the future of the USMCA and the health of U.S. manufacturing to separating AI hype from real-world value, this conversation delivers practical insights for supply chain leaders navigating constant change. What does the latest manufacturing data really tell us? Is AI bringing meaningful transformation to supply chains or just creating more noise? And how can organizations build resilient operations while developing stronger leaders? Scott, Amber, and Rich tackle these questions by exploring North American trade policy, manufacturing growth fueled by AI infrastructure investments, energy challenges, and the realities of autonomous supply chains. Rich also shares actionable leadership lessons from decades of operational excellence work, emphasizing servant leadership, trust, quick wins, and developing frontline leaders who can successfully lead change. If you're looking for practical strategies, not just buzzwords, this episode is packed with valuable takeaways. Key Takeaways Why the annual review of the USMCA matters for supply chain planning and business certainty. What recent U.S. manufacturing data reveals about growth, hiring, and AI-driven demand. The difference between real AI applications and the growing "AI noise" across the supply chain industry. Why autonomous supply chains still face significant hurdles around data, governance, and decision-making. How servant leadership, trust, and quick wins accelerate successful operational transformation. Why investing in frontline leaders is one of the most effective ways to improve manufacturing performance. Whether you're leading supply chain strategy, manufacturing operations, procurement, or digital transformation, this episode provides thoughtful perspectives on today's biggest industry trends while offering practical leadership advice you can apply immediately. You'll leave with a clearer understanding of where the industry is headed and how great leadership remains the competitive advantage that technology alone can't replace.

Die nigerianische Autorin Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie prägte unter anderem mit ihrem Essay «We Should All Be Feminists» die Debatte über Gleichberechtigung. Ihr TED-Talk von 2012 traf ein Momentum, erreichte ein Millionenpublikum. Sogar Beyoncé sampelte Auszüge der Rede; Dior druckte den Titel «We Should All Be Feminists» auf T-Shirts. «Americanah» ist ihr dritter Roman. Ein politisches Buch, in dem es um Identitätsfindung, Rassismus, Entfremdung und Heimat geht. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie seziert in «Americanah» messerscharf die amerikanische Gegenwart, wie Redaktorin Annik Hosmann findet. In der zweiten Folge unseres Buchsommers stellt Annik Hosmann ihr Lieblingsbuch vor und erklärt, warum «Americanah» ein politisch vielschichtiges Buch ist – und gleichzeitig eine grosse Liebesgeschichte.

Strong earnings, resilient AI spending and improving fundamentals continue to support the broader market, even as momentum shifts beyond the biggest technology names. Plus, investors are finding new opportunities in industrials, power infrastructure, small caps and value stocks as AI investment expands across the economy. Later, inflation, interest rates and earnings from companies like Netflix and UnitedHealth will help determine whether the rally broadens through the second half of the year.

In this episode, Ted Oakley, founder and managing partner of Oxbow Advisors with 49 years in the business, returns to discuss his latest letter, "Stick to Your Principles," and why he believes today's market is anything but normal. He warns that 10-12 companies now make up half the S&P 500, speculation via leveraged ETFs is in the billions, and stocks are roughly three standard deviations above the norm — a setup he says could eventually correct 40% or more in a generational bear market. Oakley explains why investor complacency is the biggest mistake he sees, with three-quarters of all financial assets in stocks and Americans over 70 owning a third of the market. He shares where he's finding value now — energy names like Northern Oil & Gas, Kimbell Royalty, and Antero, plus beaten-down gold miners like Agnico Eagle — and recounts the hard lesson he learned chasing hot oil stocks in the late 1970s.

How to Build the Teams That Make Customer Experience Stick Episode 262 of the Customer Service Revolution Podcast Launching a customer experience initiative is one thing. Building the internal structure that keeps it alive is another. In this episode of the Customer Service Revolution Podcast, John DiJulius continues his conversation with Dave Murray, Vice President of The DiJulius Group, about the stakeholders required to successfully launch and sustain a customer experience transformation. They focus on two groups that can determine whether a CX initiative becomes part of the culture or quietly disappears: the customer experience steering committee and CX ambassadors. Dave explains who should serve on a CX steering committee, how often the group should meet, what responsibilities it should own, and why representation must extend beyond customer-facing departments. John and Dave also explore how frontline employees can become influential CX ambassadors who reinforce standards, build peer-level support, and help organizations identify future leaders. Related:  Building an initiative that lasts Why a Customer Experience Steering Committee Matters A CX steering committee serves as the governing body of a customer experience initiative. The group helps select workshop participants, shape implementation priorities, review ideas, approve realistic next steps, and turn workshop content into usable training materials, playbooks, standards, and tools. The strongest committees include representation from both customer-facing and support departments. Sales, customer service, operations, training, finance, accounting, logistics, and other internal service providers all influence the experience customers ultimately receive. The committee must also be able to evaluate what can be implemented immediately, what requires additional technology or funding, and what should be scheduled for a later phase. Who Should Serve on the Committee? Most steering committees include managers, directors, department leaders, training professionals, and employees who understand how work moves across the organization. Members do not need to meet constantly. During normal periods, a monthly virtual meeting may be sufficient. During rollout or content-development phases, the group may meet weekly until key deliverables are complete. The goal is not to add another meeting. It is to create accountability for the customer experience. How CX Ambassadors Build Frontline Buy-In CX ambassadors are often frontline employees who participated in the original customer experience workshops and want to remain involved. They may not hold formal leadership titles, but they have influence among their peers. They understand the initiative, believe in its value, and can explain how it will improve the experience for customers and employees. Ambassadors help communicate what is coming, reinforce new behaviors, identify obstacles, share best practices, support individual locations, and keep the initiative visible after the formal rollout. John and Dave also explain why organizations should consider including respected skeptics and informal influencers during the development process. When these employees understand the purpose behind the initiative, they can become some of its strongest advocates. Related: How to get company wide buy in CX Ambassadors Should Support, Not Police One warning from the episode is especially important: CX ambassadors cannot become the "gotcha police." When ambassadors visit teams only to identify mistakes, the program becomes associated with punishment rather than improvement. Effective ambassadors recognize what employees are doing well, provide constructive coaching, replenish resources, answer questions, and help teams succeed. Their role is to support the culture, not inspect people into compliance. Customer Experience Has No Finish Line The most successful organizations continue meeting after the initial initiative has launched. Steering committees should review customer experience metrics, recognize employees, update standards, identify emerging service defects, and ensure CX training remains embedded in onboarding and leadership development. Ambassadors should continue sharing observations, comparing results across teams or locations, and identifying practices that can be adopted throughout the organization. Customer expectations, internal processes, technology, and business models change. Customer experience standards must evolve with them. CX Programs Can Help Identify Future Leaders A strong CX ambassador program creates another valuable result: it reveals which employees are ready for greater leadership responsibility. Employees who volunteer, coach peers effectively, reinforce standards, and take ownership of the experience demonstrate many of the behaviors required of successful leaders. Organizations can also reduce the number of accidental managers by allowing aspiring leaders to experience leadership training before they are promoted. This gives employees a realistic view of the responsibilities involved and helps companies evaluate more than technical performance when selecting managers. Key Takeaways A customer experience steering committee should govern the initiative after the initial workshops and rollout. The committee should include customer-facing departments and internal support functions. Steering committees translate ideas into realistic standards, training materials, playbooks, and implementation priorities. CX ambassadors are often influential frontline employees rather than formal managers. Employees who are skeptical of change may become powerful advocates when included early. Ambassadors should coach and support employees, not operate as compliance police. Monthly meetings help steering committees and ambassadors maintain momentum. Customer experience materials should be treated as living documents and updated as the business evolves. Ambassador programs can help organizations identify and prepare future leaders. Customer experience is an ongoing operating discipline, not a temporary project. Quotes "The steering committee becomes the governing body of the project." "We want to have cross-departmental representation because that is the group that shapes the project." "The primary thing ambassadors do is take that message back to their teams." "Sometimes the people who do not like change become advocates." "We do not want ambassadors looking only for the bad stuff and ignoring the good." "When it comes to customer experience, there is no finish line." "This is who we are as an organization, and we need to keep the focus on it." "Everything they have created is treated as a living document." "A customer experience ambassador program can help identify your future leaders." "Organizations often promote people without looking at the soft skills required to lead."

Nareit Senior Vice President for Research Ed Pierzak joined the REIT Report podcast to review key themes of Nareit's 2026 mid-year update. He noted that REITs have maintained their outperformance so far this year, with all but two sectors posting gains, and pointed to “really strong momentum” for REITs not only for the remainder of 2026, but beyond.Pierzak noted that often when REITs outperform early in the year, they tend to best broad equity market performance through the remainder of the year—barring any unexpected shocks.As for REIT sectors, he noted that data centers have been one of the top performers so far this year, after they were one of the worst performers in 2025. Taking the top spot this year to date is lodging and resorts, fueled by very strong leisure and business travel demand, Pierzak said.Elsewhere in the podcast, Pierzak discussed the valuation divergence seen between REITs and the broader equity market, as well as private real estate, and the potential for outperformance when that gap closes. He also commented on REIT M&A trends, as well as how REITs are increasingly being used to complement existing investment portfolios.0:00 — Why REITs Now0:21 — Welcome and Guest Intro0:40 — 2026 Performance in Context1:58 — Sector Winners and Losers3:13 — REITs vs Equity Valuations4:07 — Public vs Private Pricing Gap5:41 — What Divergence Means6:17 — M&A and Industry Consolidation7:15 — Capital Access and Financing8:10 — Outlook for Rest of 20269:07 — Wrap Up and Subscribe

One Step at a Time: The Power of Small Steps Toward Big Goals     Have you ever looked at a goal and felt overwhelmed before you even started? Whether you're learning to walk with a prosthetic, chasing a lifelong dream, beginning a new career, or simply trying to make it through a difficult season, sometimes the destination feels impossible. In this episode, I share a personal story that reminded me why the biggest accomplishments in life are built one step at a time.   1000 Step Challenge   While attending a family wedding in Washington, I decided to tackle Suncadia's famous 1,000 Step Challenge-500 steps down to a breathtaking river and 500 steps back up. As an above-knee amputee, I knew this wouldn't be easy. Every step required focus, balance, patience, and determination. Going down meant carefully riding each step on my prosthetic. Coming back up demanded grit, controlled breathing, and the willingness to stop when I needed to, not because I was failing, but because I was resetting for the next stretch.     That challenge became a powerful reminder that life works the same way. We often become so focused on the size of our goals that we forget success is built in the small, consistent decisions we make every single day. Instead of becoming intimidated by the entire staircase, I focused on the next step in front of me. Sometimes I paused to catch my breath, look around, and appreciate how far I'd already come. Those pauses weren't setbacks, they were opportunities to realign, refocus, and keep moving forward. In this episode, I encourage you to stop comparing your journey to someone else's highlight reel. Every accomplishment you admire was earned through countless unseen moments of perseverance, setbacks, adjustments, and resilience. The people accomplishing incredible things didn't avoid obstacles, they simply chose to keep taking the next step.   The view is always better on the other side of a challenge   I also share how returning to complete the challenge a second time pushed me even further. Instead of simply finishing, I challenged myself to climb all 500 steps without stopping. Competing only against the person I was yesterday reminded me that growth isn't about being better than someone else-it's about becoming stronger than you were before. No matter what mountain you're facing today, remember this: break the goal into smaller pieces, keep your eyes on the next step, and trust the process. Progress isn't measured by perfection; it's measured by persistence. One step becomes another, and before you know it, you'll look back from the top and realize you've accomplished something you once believed was impossible. If you're ready to stop standing at the bottom of your own mountain and start moving forward, I'd love for you to join me. Together, we'll keep taking the next step—one step at a time.     Figure out what your goals are, and begin b simply breaking them down into smaller chunks. Remember greatness isn’t accomplished overnight, and it isn’t accomplished without setbacks.  Keep the big picture in mind, but remember to break it down into smaller steps/goals that are doable each day. Also, If you are a female amputee and would like to join myself and other likeminded women on achieving your goals, come join my first ever Momentum group. Space is limited so jump on today and sign up for Momentum Don’t forget how amazing you are! Have a blessed week and as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!!   Much love,

about what it really looks like to build as an independent artist when nothing is happening overnight. He talks about coming from Diana, Texas, moving to Dallas in 2021, spending years making music in private, and what changed once he got serious about consistency, content, and actually giving the music a structure instead of just dropping songs whenever they were done.We also get into EARTHQUAKE, the run of releases that helped create real motion, the idea behind 2002 SKYLINE, and why direct-to-consumer matters to him as much as streaming does. This episode is really about trying to turn online attention into a real audience, one song, one post, and one show at a time.Follow Casual Thomas on InstagramCatch Casual Thomas on 6/21Use code CASUAL at checkout

What if one of the biggest obstacles to digital transformation isn't your technology stack, but the agreements connecting it all together? Recorded live at Docusign Momentum in London, this episode continues my conversations from the show floor by looking at one of the most overlooked challenges facing modern organisations. Companies have spent years investing in CRM platforms, ERP systems, HR software and cloud infrastructure, yet many of the agreements linking those systems together still rely on manual processes, email chains and static documents. Joining me is Stéphane Barberet, President of EMEA at Docusign. Having spent more than three decades helping organisations across Europe use technology to improve the way they work, Stéphane shares why he believes agreements have become one of the biggest blind spots in enterprise transformation and how AI is beginning to change that. We discuss why organisations are starting to view agreements as business intelligence rather than administrative paperwork, where businesses unknowingly lose value after contracts have been signed, and why removing friction from everyday workflows often delivers greater returns than simply introducing another AI tool. Stéphane also explains why organisations across financial services, healthcare, manufacturing and many other industries are all asking the same questions about AI, how leaders should approach adoption without trying to automate everything at once, and why measurable business outcomes matter far more than launching ambitious AI programmes. Throughout our conversation, we also explore how executives should measure success, what separates organisations making genuine progress from those still experimenting, and why the future of AI may be one where the technology becomes almost invisible, quietly improving the way businesses operate every day. After spending the day speaking with customers, executives and attendees at Momentum, one message kept coming back to me. The organisations creating the greatest value from AI aren't chasing the latest trend. They're solving meaningful business problems, building trust and helping their people spend more time on work that truly matters. Where do you see the biggest opportunities to remove friction from the way your organisation works? I'd love to hear your thoughts after listening and continue the conversation.

This past week, I worked on something that I believe has the potential to profoundly shape the next season of my life. I created a personal manifesto. The idea came from chapter fifteen of Rich Litvin's book, 100K Clients: How to Find Them, Coach Them and Keep Them. - Link To The Book In that chapter, Rich describes a manifesto as something far more than a list of goals, affirmations, or aspirations. It is a living declaration of who you are becoming. It is a personal constitution. It is something you can read regularly to help guide the moment-by-moment choices that shape your life. When I first heard the invitation to create a manifesto, I knew I wanted to take it seriously. Over the course of seven days, I spent about an hour each day reflecting, writing, refining, and allowing this manifesto to emerge. What came out of the process was not simply a better set of words. It helped me clarify the identity, commitments, practices, and inner posture that I want to live from. A manifesto is different from traditional goal-setting. Goals often focus on what I want to achieve. A manifesto helps me remember who I am becoming as I move through life. In this episode, I share how this exercise helped me reflect on five important areas: Character: Who am I becoming at the level of identity and way of being? Well-being: How do I want to relate to my body, energy, food, movement, and rest? Relationships: How do I want to love, serve, connect, and lead without abandoning myself? Wealth: How do I want to relate to money, value, service, receiving, generosity, and sovereignty? Spirit: What is the deeper truth I want to live from when everything else falls away? One of the clearest themes that emerged for me is this: I want to live consciously. I want to begin my day before the world has access to me. I want to meditate, reflect, focus within, and align with the deepest truth of who I am before stepping into the roles I am here to live, love, and lead through. I also want to continue living from the process I now call Momentum as a way of life: Desired Outcome → Clarity / Insight → Committed Calendared Action → Protected Focus → Feedback → Next Aligned Step So many people want clarity to lead directly to results. But I have learned that action always produces feedback, and that feedback can reveal the next aligned step. This is the heart of what I am living, and it is also the heart of what I love helping others experience. Toward the end of the episode, I invite you to consider a few questions: Have you been intentional about what you believe about who you are? Have you consciously chosen the narrative you tell yourself about your life, your work, your relationships, and your purpose? Have you chosen what you are devoted to? Have you identified what matters enough to protect from the distractions of the world? What would you want to remember about who you are when external evidence is temporarily absent? These are the kinds of questions that can change the direction of a life. They are also the kinds of questions I love working through with entrepreneurs inside Next Level Mastermind: Momentum. Next Level Mastermind: Momentum Momentum is a weekly coaching and mastermind environment for entrepreneurs who want to move from insight into committed action, and from committed action into visible progress. Inside Momentum, we focus on clarity, aligned next steps, calendar commitment, protected focus, feedback, and accountability. You do not need to figure out the entire map ahead of time. You simply need enough clarity to take the next aligned step, commit to it, protect your focus, and then learn from the feedback. If you are looking for more clarity, devotion, and momentum in your life and work, I invite you to learn more here: https://cliffravenscraft.com/momentum If what you read there resonates with you, reach out and let me know. If it does not, that is perfectly fine too. My hope is that this episode inspires you to think more deeply about who you are becoming, what you are devoted to, and what kind of life you are intentionally choosing to live.

Truman's Rally and the Brave Dissent of Margaret Chase Smith GUEST: Nick Bunker In May 1950, a politically wounded Harry Truman embarked on a western tour to rebuild momentum and refocus the nation on his "Fair Deal." Despite a high-profile Chicago rally featuring stars like Elizabeth Taylor, his approval ratings continued to plummet amid the ongoing coal strike and corruption scandals in cities like New York. Within his own party, the "middle way" was failing to find traction. Amidst this polarization, Senator Margaret Chase Smith delivered her courageous "Declaration of Conscience" speech, calling out the Republican Party for using "fear, ignorance, bigotry, and smear" — her "Four Horsemen." She criticized both McCarthy's tactics and the Truman administration's perceived "bitterness" and lack of leadership. Though she was the first Republican to publicly challenge McCarthy, her message fell on "deaf ears" as the Senator's power grew. Only weeks later, the North Korean sneak attack on June 25 changed the world forever, ending the period of "shadow of fear" and beginning a hot war. (8)1952 STORK CLUB
