Description:Today we're talking about something most of us sideline, postpone, or avoid entirely until life forces our hand: MONEY. This is a topic our host Jen Hatmaker knows all too well. For years, Jen let her then husband handle all of the bills, the budgeting, the taxes, the investments, everything. When she walked through divorce in midlife, she had to start from zero. It was humbling, terrifying, and ultimately deeply empowering. We're thrilled to bring you today's guest: Jean Chatzky, bestselling author, Emmy-winning financial journalist, CEO of HerMoney, and host of the hugely popular HerMoney Podcast. Jean is one of America's most trusted voices on personal finance, with decades spent breaking down complicated concepts into simple, actionable steps—especially for women who have historically been excluded from financial conversations. In this discussion, we go straight to the questions so many of us have but don't know how to ask: Where do you even start if finances feel overwhelming? How do you build confidence around money after years of letting someone else handle it? What does stability actually look like in midlife, especially for women navigating divorce, caregiving, career transitions, or reinvention? We talk about the mechanics of getting your financial life organized, and the emotional stories women carry around worth, fear, and permission. Jean offers grounding guidance you can act on today—whether it's tackling debt, starting to invest, or finally creating some safety and agency around your money. If you've ever felt late to the financial game, intimidated by jargon, or unsure how to build security for the next chapter—this episode will meet you with compassion, clarity, and courage. Jean is a generous teacher, and we cannot wait for you to learn from her. Thought-provoking Quotes: “This is one of those things that we absolutely can blame on our parents because we weren't raised in homes necessarily where women took the lead on finances. And we tend to model what we grew up with.” – Jean Chatzky “Women are an army of perfectionists and many of us don't like to do things until we know that we can do them correctly. And with money, there are some things where I can give you an answer. But if you ask me what's the best stock or what's the best mutual fund or what's the best investment strategy, I can give you an answer that's worked historically, but I can't give you a perfect answer. And a lot of us are just not comfortable with that.” – Jean Chatzky “I've been around a lot of people who've made a lot of money mistakes that are solvable. The one that's not solvable is not starting, because if you ask any older woman, what they wish they had done differently where their money is concerned, a hundred of them are gonna tell you, I wish I had started investing earlier.” – Jean Chatzky Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Jean Chatzky's HerMoney Podcast – https://hermoney.com/t/podcasts/ From Financially In the Dark to Fully In Control: Jen Hatmaker's Wake-Up Call – https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/from-financially-in-the-dark-to-fully-in-control-jen/id1098802558?i=1000740622343 Monarch money management app – https://www.monarch.com/ Rocket Money –https://www.rocketmoney.com/ Openbank High Yield Savings account – https://secureapply.openbank.us/savings/intro/welcome Guest's Links: Website - https://hermoney.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jeanchatzky Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/JeanChatzky/ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@jeanchatzky Podcast - https://hermoney.com/t/podcasts/ Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.

Strap in, because Jackie joins Brad Barrett for a crossover episode on the ChooseFI podcast, home of the world's largest FI community! Together, they rewind all the way back to 2017, when Jackie first stumbled onto ChooseFI… and everything changed. She recounts her journey to reaching early retirement by December 2019, and using that freedom to go back to school, get her CFP, and write 'F.I.R.E. for Dummies'. Then the two of them dive deep into the fundamentals and break down what financial independence really means. They explain why even ten dollars a month can spark a lifelong investing habit, and how Jackie's first investment club taught her the power of community and compounding. They decode 401(k)s, demystify fund selection, and spotlight the quiet villain of investing: expense ratios. The episode widens from there: debt payoff strategies, designing a modest but deeply rich life on $40–45K a year in Ohio, negotiating everything from internet bills to insurance premiums, and the emotional transformation from paycheck-to-paycheck lifestyle to feeling 'directionally correct.' They conclude with the realization that FI isn't just about money, it's about options. Whether you're a late starter, brand new or ten years into the journey; returning to the basics is how you stay grounded, stay motivated, and stay on course. ==================== DEALS & DISCOUNTS FROM OUR TRUSTED PARTNERS: MONARCH MONEY The modern way to manage money!

Episode Description: AJ and Johnny sit down with psychologist Guy Winch, author of Mind Over Grind, to unpack how grind culture quietly erodes our mental health, relationships, and sense of self — often without us realizing it. Guy explains why stress no longer stays at work, how rumination turns unpaid overtime into chronic burnout, and why many high performers confuse exhaustion with productivity. They explore the blurred boundary between work and home, the hidden damage of always-on thinking, and how modern workplaces amplify anxiety, resentment, and emotional withdrawal. This conversation offers practical ways to reclaim control: recognizing harmful rumination, creating transition rituals, recharging instead of just resting, and redesigning workdays to protect focus, relationships, and meaning — without sacrificing ambition.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored and excited to have on the show for a second time: Renowned and published author and writer, independent researcher, investigator and reporter, public speaker and educator, whistleblower to whistleblowers of ritual abuse, mind control and organized abuse, one of my personal inspirations, a man who has inspired many of you, and a man who was way before his time who has pioneered the survivor movement in ways that are just now starting to truly be recognized: Fritz SpringmeierA little bit about Fritz if you are new here and what we will be discussing today: In the depths of humanity's darkest hour, when shadows of control threaten to extinguish the human spirit, a single flame rises - unquenchable, unbreakable, eternal. That flame is Fritz Springmeier, the fearless whistleblower, the tireless warrior of truth, and the radiant beacon who has given hope to the hopeless, healing to the broken, and courage to the silenced.Born into a world of hidden chains, Fritz saw what others refused to see: generations of elite bloodlines wielding unimaginable power through trauma-based mind control, ritual abuse, and a relentless agenda to enslave the soul. With the fire of conviction burning in his heart, he refused to remain silent. Armed only with relentless research, a Master's degree in English, and an unshakable faith in God and human freedom, he forged masterpieces that would become lifelines for survivors trapped in unimaginable darkness.His groundbreaking collaboration with survivor Cisco Wheeler, The Illuminati Formula Used to Create an Undetectable Total Mind Controlled Slave, became more than a book - it became salvation. For countless men and women fractured by MONARCH programming, dissociation, and ritual horror, Fritz's words offered the first glimpse of light: validation that their pain was real, explanations that shattered the lies, and practical pathways toward deprogramming and recovery. Survivors who once believed escape was impossible found in his work the map to reclaim their minds, their identities, and their lives. "Undetectable no more" - his message echoes as a battle cry of liberation, turning victims into empowered warriors who rise to tell their stories and break the cycle of abuse.As a captivating lecturer through The Prophecy Club and beyond, Fritz's voice thundered across stages, demystifying occult symbols, numerology, and elite manipulations. He inspired generations - from researchers to everyday awakeners - to question, to seek, to fight. His influence ripples through the works of visionaries and endures in archives, forums, and hearts, even as engineered crises test humanity's resolve.Persecution came, as it always does for those who threaten the shadows. False charges, a conviction, years behind bars - yet Fritz emerged unbroken, his spirit forged stronger in the fire. Many see these trials as the ultimate proof of his impact: the powerful fear only those who refuse to yield. From his currently sanctuary, he continues his divine calling - to dismantle the New World Order and restore sovereignty to every soul.Today, with Fritz at the helm, we will be beginning a discussion around programming and trauma-based mind control - painting the bigger picture of it's origins and history, what it is, the reason for it's continued proliferation, and the conspiracy Fritz is no ordinary man. He is humanity's champion, a living testament that one voice raised in truth can shatter chains, heal wounds, and ignite revolutions of the spirit. To survivors, he is the first hand extended in the abyss, whispering, "You are not alone. You can hSupport the show

A busy month for your RV Navigators as make our FL home ours and take a vacation from our vacation. Yes, we are traveling without the RV this month as we make our way South to Mexico. We are checking off another couple of bucket list items off the list. We travel to Mexico City to start the trip to view the Monarch butterfly migration. Every year millions of butterflies make their way south to the mountains outside of Mexico city for no apparent reason. After six days of this adventure, we headed to the Baja Sur to board an expedition ship to seek the whales. More logical than the butterflies, they migrate to this area to give birth and mate before heading back to Alaska to feed in the summer. With 14 naturalist on board we had daily lectures and presentations about the local wildlife (there was more than whales to see), flora and fauna. We have not forgotten that this is an RV podcast so we have several RV topics on the agenda for this episode. What's on your bucket list?

#MKULTRA #Monarch #HumanTrafficking #SRA #SatanicRiualAbuse #RitualAbuse[DUE TO GRAPHIC CONTENT – VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED] Today's show might not be for everyone. For those of us who are ready, please me for another installment of our newly named series, ‘Survivor Stories'. We will provide a platform for any & all survivors who want to tell their story & have people listen. This is where we have a honest discussion & a hard look at the truth, directly from a survivor.Today's guest is Kaity, aka StellarFox16. Kaity is a true fighter, an inspiration. She is a true testament to the full strength & durability of the human spirit fighting for justice. Her refusal to stop fighting for what was right, has led here to this moment, with all of us. After lots of hard work, she has gained back her strength & her power, bit by bit, until it has once again, rightfully became hers.Her story begins with being exposed to SRA/Monarch style programming, which began at birth & lasted until she was 11 years old. Her bio-father was/is a project monarch/occult programmer & handler. When her dad's “activities” slowed down, he married Mena Suvari's mother. Up until this point, she was trafficked, passed around different cult(s) her dad was in contact with or worked for by programming and other favors. She was also used for CP, put in hunting parties, mansion parties, and many other things.Kaity's story is one of true darkness & pure evil, it is hard to write something about it… But her story is also about perseverance, healing, overcoming & adapting to circumstances only to come out the other side doing so well in fact, that she has decided to expose these forces by highlighting what she experienced first hand.This is a mission we share mutually. So let's expose the truth by shining a purifying light on all of it. Let's leave no dark corner for the rats to hide in. Join us wont you, for a deeply important & honest discussion that will get dark & heavy but comes full circle to a happy ending.[DUE TO GRAPHIC CONTENT – VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED] VIDEO VERSIONS OF INTERVIEW - YOUTUBE & RUMBLE:YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/JWG7QA2roDQRumble: https://rumble.com/v74r1f4-kaitys-story-mkultra-project-monarch-sra-and-human-trafficking-survivor-sto.htmlKAITY'S LINKS: • Kaity's X Acct: https://x.com/stellarfox16• Kaity's Substack: https://stellarfox33.substack.com/ • Kaity's Pinned X Post: https://x.com/stellarfox16/status/188...RISE TO LIBERTY – LINKS:• Master Link: https://allmylinks.com/risetoliberty • RTL Merch Store: https://risetoliberty.store/ • Substack - Beware The Mockingbird!: https://open.substack.com/pub/bewarethemockingbird • RTL's - Buy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/deprogram • RTL's - Ko-Fi Page: https://ko-fi.com/risetoliberty
AJ and Johnny sit down with Daniel Coyle, bestselling author and culture researcher, to explore what it actually means to flourish — and why flourishing is never a solo pursuit. Drawing from his research into thriving communities around the world, Daniel explains why growth, meaning, and fulfillment emerge from connection, friction, and shared purpose rather than individual achievement. They unpack how modern life fragments attention, why efficiency and isolation undermine belonging, and how small, human-scale practices — from rituals to shared meals to “yellow door” moments — can reawaken connection. This conversation reframes success away from optimization and toward aliveness, showing how community, presence, and intentional messiness create lives and workplaces that truly thrive.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show once again: Satanic ritual abuse, mind control, Stargate Project, Freemason, Jesuit, and organized abuse survivor, overcomer and whistleblower, loving mother, content creator, faithful servant to the most high, former school teacher, gardener, floral design extraordinaire, singer and songwriter, poet, poetry and creative writer, and someone I'm so grateful to call my friend: Kadaya Kaday was born into chains most people cannot even imagine - multi-generational webs of satanic ritual abuse, MK-ULTRA and MONARCH mind control, Freemasonic and Jesuit orchestrated ritual abuse, human trafficking, and deliberate soul-shattering trauma from infancy, perhaps even in utero. Programmed by her father - a 33rd-degree Freemason neurologist who turned the study of the brain into an instrument of enslavement - she was molded to serve darkness while her front personality lived what appeared to be and felt like an ordinary, happy, Christian childhood in Canada. Yet beneath the surface laid horrors beyond comprehension - and a silent scream wired into her nervous system so that pain could never find a voice.When memories began to surface in her twenties, she was met with disbelief, gaslighting, betrayal, and the full cult playbook: DARVO, ostracism, weaponization of her own children, financial strangulation, a fraudulent protective order, and exile across an international border with nothing but the clothes on her back.Her husband filed for divorce citing “delusional beliefs.” Family, friends, pastors, and authorities turned away or actively participated in her silencing. She lost her home, her livelihood as a public-school teacher, her safety, and - most agonizingly - daily access to her two beloved children, now used as collateral to punish her refusal to stay silent. But the enemy miscalculated.In the crucible of total loss, Kadaya met the only One more powerful than the programming or programmers: Yah, the Most High, the God of Israel, the Father who sees every hidden thing and whose word is sharper than any double-edged sword. Through raw, honest wrestling - she chose obedience over fear. She repented for generational sins she never chose, fasted and prayed, wrote the sins of her bloodline on a closet wall, and watched spiritual strongholds crack.On today's episode, Kadaya will be sharing ground-breaking information related to current national and global events, Nazi programming in the US and how these events relate to her personal experiences and and the current and upcoming DELTA activations, Sascha Riley, ICE, Donald Trump, the duality of politics and politicians, body memories and abreactions, and so much more.

The episode covers a wide range of topics from hardware shortages and software betas to major security breaches and executive transitions. The panel discusses the recent Vision Pro beta releases, noting that while the updates are relatively minor, they significantly improve connectivity with game controllers. Looking ahead, Apple Arcade is set to launch a "Retrocade" on February 5th, bringing 3D immersive versions of classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Asteroids to the headset. The team also reviews the recent immersive Lakers NBA game, sharing mixed feelings about the audio quality and app stability, but ultimately expressing excitement for the future of sports in VR. Current MacBook Pro stock is reportedly thinning, with wait times stretching into March. This has fueled speculation about an imminent release of M5 Pro and M5 Max models. The panel debates whether users should upgrade now or wait for the rumored M6, while also considering how NVIDIA's priority at TSMC for AI chips might be impacting Apple's supply chain. The discussion takes a serious turn regarding a massive 1TB data breach at Apple manufacturing partner Luxshare. The stolen data allegedly includes confidential product designs and engineering documents from 2019 through 2025, raising concerns about reverse engineering and hardware vulnerabilities. On the software side, 1Password has introduced a new anti-phishing feature that warns users when they attempt to paste passwords into suspicious websites. The panel also revisits Walmart's continued refusal to accept Apple Pay, noting that the retailer prefers its own "Walmart Pay" system to maintain control over customer purchase data. Apple TV+ continues to gain momentum with six Academy Award nominations for the film F1. The panel also previews upcoming content, including the March 27th premiere of For All Mankind Season 5, and discusses other popular series like Starfleet Academy and Monarch. A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to reports that John Ternus is being groomed as the next Apple CEO. Ternus has recently taken over management of the design teams, a move seen as a way to expose him to broader business operations before Tim Cook eventually retires. While some panelists express anxiety over a post-Cook era, others highlight Apple's history of strong succession planning. Topics and Links In Touch With Vision Pro this week.

Tori Dunlap is the author of Financial Feminist and the host of the podcast of the same name. She has a very compelling way of helping women to effectively approach (and earn) money, while addressing underlying emotions, traumas, triggers, and stories. I think you’ll find her advice helpful if: You’ve ever been told, or thought, that you’re bad with money. You feel like you need to justify any spending or any earning. You feel like you have no control over your money (or your partner handles all the finances). You’d love to switch from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset. Or, you can deduce what the ostrich effect is, and you want to know how to combat it. For the show notes, head to my Substack.

In this Thursday episode of Book Talk for BookTok, we bring an academic lens to bookish culture, genre fiction, and the conversations shaping romance and romantasy today. Our podcast blends literary analysis, cultural criticism, and emotional honesty. We treat romance, romantasy, and fanfiction as genres worthy of serious discussion, not just quick takes. Today's discussion focuses on Heated Rivalry: In this episode, we dive into Heated Rivalry and explore how its recent adaptation from beloved romance novel to television series highlights the growing cultural appetite for queer love stories on screen. We unpack what makes this particular story resonate so deeply, especially with women readers and viewers, from emotionally rich character development to the safe exploration of intimacy, vulnerability, and desire outside of traditional heterosexual power dynamics. By looking at the broader popularity of gay romance among women, we examine how these narratives offer space for emotional authenticity, mutual longing, and romance untethered from the gendered expectations often placed on female characters, ultimately asking what these stories reveal about what audiences are craving from modern love stories. Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussion of sexual assault, sexual harassment, and non-consensual behavior. Listener discretion is advised.

In this episode of Book Talk for BookTok, we sit down with T.C. Kraven, author of Of Prophecies and Pomegranates, a dark mythological retelling that grapples honestly with one of the most contested stories in Greek mythology: Hades and Persephone. Together, we explore how Kraven approached retelling a myth that has been romanticized, sanitized, and rewritten countless times. We discuss what it means to engage with the original mythos, including the complicated history behind the so-called “Rape of Persephone,” and how linguistic nuance, power, and consent shaped her interpretation of Persephone's story. This conversation also dives into one of the novel's central thematic threads: self-deception. From Demeter's possessive motherhood, to Helios's obsession, to Hades's self-punishment, we unpack how characters lie to themselves in the name of love, protection, and control. We pay special attention to Kraven's striking portrayal of Demeter as an abusive parent and why that interpretation felt both mythologically grounded and narratively necessary. We also talk about Narcissus, whose arc moves beyond vanity into something far more human and tragic, and why his emotional depth matters to the story as a whole. Finally, for aspiring writers, Kraven shares candid insight into her journey through self-publishing and her transition into traditional publishing, offering thoughtful advice for authors navigating both paths. This episode is a must-listen for readers interested in mythological retellings, feminist reinterpretations of Greek myths, and stories that refuse to look away from uncomfortable truths.

Texas-born and DC-based, Michael Gula is the Managing Partner & Capital Raising Advisor of Monarch Worldwide, a global capital advisory and intelligence firm operating across Washington, DC, Athens, Greece, and New York City. Monarch helps companies and high-net-worth individuals raise capital, identify global opportunities, and navigate rapidly shifting markets. Before Monarch, Michael co-founded Gula Graham with his best friend and business partner, Jon Graham, building it into the largest Republican fundraising firm in the United States and raising more than $512 million for 72 Members of Congress. Jon's sudden death in 2018 triggered a complete collapse in Michael's life — personally and professionally. His rebuild began with his faith in Jesus Christ, which restored his conviction, grounded his decisions, and rebuilt his character from the inside out. Through faith, discipline, humility, and hard accountability, he rebuilt his life from zero. Today, through Monarch Worldwide, he has helped companies raise billions across the globe. His message is direct, unapologetic, and rooted in real adversity, real responsibility, and the real rules of life and work. He is the proud father of two children, Bennett (12) and Collins (10).

Welcome to Season of Aquarius, our book club season on Book Talk for BookTok, a fantasy and romantasy podcast centered on thoughtful discussion and literary analysis. This season is created for readers who want more than quick takes and star ratings, offering space to explore how and why stories work on the page. This is not a traditional book review podcast; it's an analysis and conversation. Each week, we share flash literary analysis that examines themes, authorial intent, character arcs, symbolism, world-building, and key plot devices. Our discussions move beyond initial impressions to unpack narrative choices, emotional resonance, and the craft behind fantasy and romantasy storytelling. We aim to bridge academic literary insight with the modern reading experience shaped by BookTok and online reading communities. This week, we discuss Phantasma by Kaylie Smith.

AJ and Johnny sit down with Paul Eastwick, relationship scientist and author of Bonded by Evolution, to unpack what modern dating has gotten wrong — and what the science actually says about love, attraction, and connection. They explore how online dating has distorted our view of desirability, why the search for “the perfect person” makes us miserable, and how real connection comes from shared time, not algorithms. Paul breaks down how our brains evolved for small-group bonding — not endless swiping — and reveals the truth about compatibility, attachment, and the misunderstood “friend zone.” From evolutionary psychology to modern dating anxiety, this conversation is a masterclass in how to build real relationships in a world built on comparison.

DEFINING THE CAUSE AND THE MONARCH'S POWER Colleague Joseph Ellis. Ellis explains that colonists adopted the term "the cause" to describe their diverse opposition to British policy and eventual desire for independence, covering various interest groups under one verbal canopy. He describes George III as a powerful monarch who controlled Parliament through treasury funds, viewing American independence as a domino theory threat to the British Empire. Ellis also notes Benjamin Franklin's failed attempts to preserve a commonwealth relationship before British humiliation pushed him toward independence. NUMBER 11761

We're kicking things off by unpacking one of the messiest and most layered legal stories to come out of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.

AJ and Johnny sit down with Zack Kass, AI futurist and author of The Next Renaissance: AI and the Expansion of Human Potential, to explore how artificial intelligence will reshape identity, purpose, and meaning. Zack breaks down why our fear of AI isn't really about machines; it's about identity displacement. They dive deep into how creativity, purpose, and work evolve when technology becomes capable of doing almost everything. From artists confronting AI-generated art to professionals watching automation change their industries, Zack explains why humanity's next great challenge isn't survival, it's spiritual. This episode unpacks how to navigate the coming era with optimism, connection, and mastery — and why the most valuable skill of the future is still deeply, unapologetically human.
