Every spring, something remarkable happens in the tidal waters of Black Creek in Esopus, New York: tiny, translucent eels — just an inch and a half long and barely the weight of a postage stamp — swim in from the Atlantic Ocean, following a journey that began in the Sargasso Sea nearly a year before.In this episode, guest host Sierra DeVito joins the Hudson River Eel Project at Black Creek Preserve, where Professor Susan Hereth of SUNY New Paltz leads a team of college and high school students in weekly data collection on the American eel — one of nature's most elusive and mysterious creatures. No one has ever witnessed eels spawning. No one knows exactly what draws them to the Hudson, or to Black Creek specifically. And yet, year after year, they return.We wade in with the crew as they haul the fyke net, count and weigh glass eels, record field data, and release the eels upstream. We also hear from students about what it means to do real science in the real world — and why it matters.In this episode:The remarkable (and still poorly understood) life cycle of the American eel, from the Sargasso Sea to the Catskill tributariesHow community scientists collect data that feeds into long-term fisheries researchThe black market for glass eels — and why a single eel can be worth serious moneyWhy getting students into the muck may be the best environmental education of allFor more information or to inquire about volunteering with the Hudson River Eel Project, visit the NYS DEC website — https://dec.ny.gov/nature/waterbodies/oceans-estuaries/hudson-river-estuary-program/community-science-volunteer-opportunities

You finish the job, look at the numbers, and somehow you're $3,000 short of where you thought you'd be. Again.That's scope creep — and it's the biggest hole in most contractors' buckets. In part 1 of this two-part series, Clark and James break down why it keeps happening, the four different ways it sneaks in, and why "I'll just eat it" is quietly killing your margins, your timelines, and your relationships with your crews.They cover:The "while you're here" trap that turns into hundreds of unbilled hoursWhy fear of conflict trains your clients to expect freebiesThe four types of scope creep — and why most contractors don't even see them happeningThe assumption game between you and the client that always costs you moneyWhy gray-area scope language is your biggest enemy on every estimateHow client-driven creep builds resentment that explodes mid-projectThe real triple cost of every freebie — money, timeline, and your subsThe one habit you can start using today to flip the dynamic completelyIf you've ever ended a job feeling like you got nickel-and-dimed by your own scope, this is the episode that opens your eyes.Part 2 drops next week — full systems, CEA language, change order culture, and the bank line item that protects every dollar.If you're doing $350K–$2M a year in revenue, coaching pays for itself. A 5% efficiency gain alone covers the cost — and that's before we even talk about growth. We help contractors stop losing money on crews, change orders, and inefficient operations — and start scaling. Ready to have the conversation?

Over my birthday month, I gave myself some real space. Time to switch off, be with family, and finally lean into something I'd been dancing around for a while… AI.And somewhere in that space, I had to be honest with myself.Things in my business were good. My clients, the Legends Club, the inner circle, all of that felt solid. But when it came to AI, I could see it clearly. I'd been coasting. Staying comfortable while everything around me was speeding up.What really brought it home was watching my husband, Josh. He's been in development for over 25 years, deep in AI for the last few, and he's just in it. Running agents, building things, automating constantly. And I kept thinking, that's his world.Until it hit me. This isn't just his world anymore. It's everyone's.That was my wake-up moment.So this episode is about what happened when I stopped sitting on the sidelines. What I started building, what stretched my brain in the best way, and why I believe the people who learn how to have AI actually do things for them, not just give them answers, are going to have a serious edge over the next 6 to 12 months.What You'll Learn:Why most people are still using AI the "old way", and what it actually looks like when it starts working for you insteadWhat made me go from coasting on AI to completely overhauling how I run my business (and what finally clicked)How I built a full sales page in about two hours, and what that same process used to cost me in time and moneyWhy the 40% of jobs most at risk from AI disproportionately affect women, and why that makes this moment so importantHow to identify opportunities in your business where AI can save time and energy Hosted on Acast.

Money can be such a sensitive, emotionally charged topic. It impacts our relationships, plays a key role in our businesses, and shows up in the tiny details of our daily lives. No matter what your current relationship with money is, there's often much more beneath the surface shaping it than you may realize.In this episode, I'm joined by money coach Hanna Bier, who works with ambitious, creative women to redesign their relationship with money and become more open to receiving it.

If you're constantly feeling pressure, scarcity, or uncertainty in your relationship with money, this conversation offers simple reframes and ideas to bring more peace as you move toward financial freedom.Many women are incredibly capable in every area of life, yet still feel stuck or frustrated when it comes to money. Not because they aren't smart or driven, but because of the emotional patterns, beliefs, and past experiences shaping how they relate to it. When you begin to understand that, you can start to shift how you see money and build a relationship that feels more supportive.You have a choice in how you feel and behave with money. When you begin making small changes that align with the life you want, it can make all the difference. I can't wait for you to hear how that's possible. Let's get started!What you'll learn:How money goes all the way to the core of who we are beyond numbers and investmentsThree ways strained relationships with money show up based on early experiences with loveA shift you can make around the thought “I want more” to ease your relationship with moneyThe difference between being a great earner and becoming someone who actually has moneyWhy allowing yourself to receive is essential to creating financial freedom for womenYou can read the full show notes here.About Hanna BierHanna Bier teaches the art of making money with elegance, excellence, and ease.

I just got back from three days in Atlanta with some of the most impressive people in the online business space, and I am still processing all of it.We're talking New York Times bestselling authors, YouTubers with millions of subscribers, book agents and editors, SaaS founders, and high-level consultants serving Fortune 100 companies. All 40 of us crammed into rooms, hot seats, and late-night fire pit hangs for what turned into one of the most valuable professional (and personal) experiences I've had in years.I walked away with pages of notes on pricing psychology, LinkedIn strategy, storytelling, community building, and what it really takes to write and sell a book. But honestly? The biggest thing I took away wasn't a tactic at all. It was the realization that even after building a multi-seven-figure business, giving keynotes, and writing a book, I still don't fully believe in myself or what's possible for me.And it turns out? Neither does pretty much everyone else in that room. So I figured I'd bring all of it back to you.In this episode, you'll hear…The pricing psychology tip from a master business consultant that will make you rethink every number on your sales pageWhy the words "fee" and "costs" are quietly working against your sales (and what to say instead)The LinkedIn profile mistakes almost everyone makes and the simple fixes that actually drive traffic to your businessWhat spending three days with NYT bestselling authors taught me about the realities of publishing, book deals, and where authors actually make their moneyWhy the most successful people in the room still felt like they didn't belong there, and what that means for youThe honest truth about AI that nobody in the online space seems willing to say out loudWhy going deep in one community beats trying to be everywhere at onceClick here to find the full show notes and transcript for this episode.EPISODE RESOURCES:Grab Sam's book When I Start My Business, I'll Be Happy and join the Live Book Club Call (purchase book by April 29th to get your invite)Jo Franco's travel showCraft + Commerce ConferenceSam's episode on The Nathan Barry ShowIf you have a question you'd like Sam to answer on a future podcast episode, you can submit it here.Click here to be notified when new episodes of On Your Terms® come outCONNECT:Get Sam's weekly newsletter, Sam's SidebarFollow Sam on InstagramFollow Sam on YouTubeSubscribe to Sam's Substack, Beyond BusinessTake Sam's free legal workshop "5 Steps to Legally Protect & Grow Your Online Business"DISCLAIMER

You've been lied to.Not directly—but constantly.Every ad, every promise, every “success story” has conditioned you to expect results right now.

Episode SummaryIn this episode of Million Dollar Flip Flops, Rodric sits down with Tim Beattie — founder of Stellafai, former consultant, transformation expert, and a thoughtful voice on the intersection of AI, coaching, consulting, and measurable outcomes.After spending more than two decades inside major consulting firms and boutique advisory businesses, Tim saw the same problem again and again: too much waste, too little clarity, and not nearly enough focus on outcomes that actually matter.What followed was a journey into rethinking how coaches, consultants, and professional services firms deliver value. Instead of centering engagements around time, activity, or vague deliverables, Tim is focused on helping experts anchor everything around real outcomes, measurable progress, and longer-lasting impact.Rodric and Tim dig into where AI can genuinely support transformation work, where it still falls short, and why human connection, facilitation, trust, and community may become even more valuable in the years ahead.This is a conversation about technology, yes — but more than that, it's about people, change, coaching, energy, and what really creates lasting transformation.In this episode, you'll hear:Tim's journey from traditional consulting to building StellafaiWhy most consulting and coaching engagements waste too much time and moneyWhy outcomes should anchor every client engagementThe difference between information and actual transformationHow AI can amplify coaching instead of replacing itWhy facilitation, trust, and emotional safety matter so muchThe growing importance of community in an AI-driven worldWhy coaches may need to become more “in your pocket” than “once-a-month”What Tim believes truly drives impact and meaningful changeHighlights & Timestamps[00:00] A vision for AI in coaching and consulting Tim explains how AI could become a powerful amplifier for learning and coaching — if it is built on the right human foundation.[01:00] Meet Tim Beattie Tim introduces himself as a “recovering consultant” and shares his background across big consulting firms, boutique advisory businesses, and transformation work.[02:00] Why consulting needs to evolve Tim talks about the inefficiencies, waste, and money hemorrhage he saw in traditional consulting — and why he went searching for a better model.[03:00] Outcomes before everything else Tim explains why every coaching or consulting engagement has to start with the client's actual problem, desired outcome, and measurable progress.[04:00] Rodric on AI, humanity, and soft skills Rodric shares how a late-night AI rabbit hole sparked bigger questions about emotion, humanity, and why community may matter more than ever going forward.[05:00] What AI still cannot replace Tim breaks down the invisible energy inside a great room: trust, safety, facilitation, and the human magic of shared conversation.[07:00] Why community is becoming more valuable Rodric talks about his coaching groups and why real builders sharing openly in a trusted room creates value no AI tool can replicate.[09:00] Inspiration vs transformation Tim shares why a great keynote or coaching session can inspire people — but sustained change requires a different layer of support.[11:00] The “coach in your pocket” idea Tim explains why modern coaching and consulting may need to become more flexible, more available, and more embedded in real life.[14:00] What Stellafai actually is Tim walks through the meaning behind Stellafai, how the company started, and how it helps teams and consultants connect work to measurable outcomes.[17:00] Rodric's message about Million Dollar Flip Flops Rodric shares a brief message about the book, the framework, and the mission behind SASLA.[19:00] Who Stellafai serves today Tim explains how the platform supports coaches, consultants, and professional services organizations that want to modernize how they deliver value.[20:00] Where to find Tim Tim shares where people can connect with him, use the platform, and book time.[21:00] A question for the next guest Tim asks what measure someone would put in place on day one of their career to know whether that career would be successful.[21:00] What would you do if you knew you couldn't fail?

If you are looking for the fastest way to attract abundance, this video reveals a simple but profound three-word secret: Be abundance herself.

There are two sentences that can ruin a perfectly normal evening – “We need to talk”, and its evil twin, “We need to talk about money.” Even if your relationship is good, that phrasing makes it feel like somebody's about to get graded. Even when things are fine, nobody wants to be the person who turns a decent Tuesday night into a full relationship audit. So this week, we're introducing a better way: small doors. These are quick, low-stakes, real-life openings that normalize money talk without turning it into a whole thing.And the best part is, they're not just for couples. Small doors can be used with parents, siblings, friends, or any relationship where money differences create distanceWe get into:Why “we need to talk about money” is basically a panic alarm for most people, even if they're in good relationshipsThe difference between avoiding conflict and avoiding judgment, weirdness, and role shiftsWhy money conversations work better as appetizers than a full-day “financial summit”What “small doors” actually look like in real life (aka: our kid's expensive cherry habit

What do billion-dollar investors and donors actually care about?It's not your pitch deck.It's not your financial model.And it's definitely not your IRR slide.In this episode of Commercially Speaking, we sit down with Greg Dugard, COO of Seder Grove Holdings, who previously helped raise over $5 billion during Notre Dame's historic capital campaign.Greg breaks down what he learned from raising billions, working with ultra-high-net-worth families, and now partnering with founders through permanent capital, a long-term investment approach that rejects forced exits, short-term incentives, and five-year flip cycles.We explore:What investors actually look for before wiring moneyWhy time horizons destroy more value than bad dealsPermanent capital vs private equity and venture capitalHow misaligned incentives quietly ruin partnershipsWhy selling too early kills compoundingThe difference between IRR and long-term wealth creationHow founders should evaluate partners before signingWhy trust beats returns in the long runWhat “life's work” really means for a founderIf you're a founder, investor, or operator thinking about taking on capital, this conversation might save you years of regret.

Does the danger in the world feel more real and urgent than ever before? Are you exhausted from trying to hold everything together while the world seems to be falling apart? What if the chaos isn't a sign of the end, but a divine invitation to finally surrender your control? Michael Sandler welcomes back Kyle Cease, New York Times bestselling author and comedian-turned-transformational teacher, for a radical conversation about navigating the massive energetic shifts of 2026. Kyle Cease reveals the SHOCKING TRUTH: 2026 is the year when everything you are not must go. This isn't about fighting the darkness or arguing with the news; it is about raising your frequency so high that the old world of manipulation and fear can no longer touch you. Discover why your vibration is worth more than money, why "giving up" is actually a spiritual superpower, and the specific question you must ask to dissolve trauma instantly. Key Topics: The 2026 Shift: Why we have moved from linear timelines to an "elevator" of surrender, and why the old methods of control no longer work. Frequency vs. Money: Why your personal frequency is the new currency, and why believing money is power keeps you trapped in the old matrix. The "What's Here?" Technique: The game-changing shift from asking "What do I do?" (ego) to "What is here?" (soul) to heal deep-seated loneliness and trauma. Empaths & Boundaries: Why empaths must stop trying to "save" low-vibration situations and start setting boundaries to let God in. The "Pull" vs. The Plan: How to distinguish between the ego's need for certainty and the blindsiding, miraculous "pull" of the Soul. Lightworker Exhaustion: The profound reason why spiritual people feel so tired right now (hint: you are healing your parents' trauma at concerts!). The "God Chute": Why 2026 is like a water slide where we finally let go of the sides and fall into freedom. The Billy Joel Miracle: A wild, real-life synchronicity story about "Rock and Roller Cola Wars" that proves the Universe is listening. This episode is a portal to freedom. If you are ready to let go of the "false certainty" of the ego and slide into a life of miracles, this conversation will change your frequency forever. Join the Inspire Nation Soul Family!

What if the real reason you feel stuck financially isn't your bank account — but the beliefs you've carried for years?In part one of this two-part conversation, Shelly sits down with Audrey Faust, The Manifesting CFO™, to explore how our earliest money messages shape our confidence, decisions, and sense of possibility in midlife.Together, they talk about growing up hearing phrases like “we can't afford that,” how scarcity mindsets get passed down through generations, and why mindset work often needs to come before spreadsheets and strategies.Audrey also shares her grounded, practical take on manifestation — not as magic, but as focus and alignment — and how learning to shift what we believe can open the door to more peace and confidence with money. Key Takeaways:How early money messages shape our beliefs in midlifeWhy “we can't afford that” can quietly limit what feels possibleWhat it means to be the transitional generation with moneyWhy mindset is the missing piece before financial strategyA practical, down-to-earth explanation of manifestationThis conversation was so rich that it's been split into two parts.

Rushing a divorce can cost you money, leverage, and peace—especially if you're dating, listening to family “advice,” or skipping the right experts. In this episode, Morgan Stogsdill and Andrea Rappaport break down the most common divorce regrets and the smart, strategic moves to avoid them.In this episode of How Not to Suck at Divorce, Morgan and Andrea unpack the most common divorce regrets they see over and over again: the ones that quietly cost you money, complicate custody, drag out the process, and make you look back thinking… why did I do that?Get real divorce advice your lawyer may be too polite to share. We break down unpopular divorce opinions and practical divorce tips that can save you thousands of dollars in legal fees, reduce stress, and help you avoid costly mistakes. How Not to Suck at Divorce is the divorce podcast for people who want clarity, strategy, and supportFrom rushing because you've moved on romantically, to letting your dad become your “legal strategist,” to skipping experts like OurFamilyWizard because you're trying to save money—this is your highlight reel of what not to do (and what to do instead).And yes… Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie make an appearance. Because apparently six marriages is one way to earn a PhD in divorce.In this episode, we cover:The #1 regret: rushing your divorce and leaving money on the tableWhy “I want to be divorced by March” can backfire fastHow outdated financials and an old balance sheet can cost you thousandsWhy your new partner should not be part of the divorce “mischigas”The danger of letting family and friends influence legal decisionsHow well-meaning parents can accidentally run up your legal billWhen outside experts (forensic accountants, co-parenting tools, therapists) actually save you moneyWhy trying to “cheap out” can lead to a future court nightmareThe difference between fighting for what matters vs. fighting over balsamic vinegarHow to decide what's worth it (and what's just ego, fear, or control)Key Takeaways (Quick & Skimmable)1) Don't rush the process and leave money on the tableWhen you're desperate to be done, you cut corners. That's how people sign agreements with missing details, outdated account values, or unclear parenting language—then regret it later.Do this instead: Ask your attorney if your timeline is realistic, and if it is—map the steps from A to Z.2) Don't bring your new relationship into your divorce chaosYour new person may mean well, but they are not your lawyer—and emotionally, it can start poisoning the relationship fast.Do this instead: Process the divorce with your therapist, your support system, and your attorney—not your new partner.3) Don't let non-lawyers steer legal decisionsEven smart, loving parents can unintentionally derail the strategy—especially when they aren't in the day-to-day “trenches” of your case.Do

In today's episode, Staci delivers a bold but timely perspective on one of the most overused pieces of business advice heading into 2026: “Find power partners.” While partnerships are often positioned as the solution to social media burnout and slow growth, Staci explains why power partners and affiliates are failing most businesses and what needs to come first.This episode breaks down the hard truth about leverage, clout, and momentum, and offers a refreshing, grounded approach to building relationships that actually lead to referrals, visibility, and long-term growth.Key topics covered:Why power partnerships don't create clout, they only leverage what already existsThe real difference between affiliates and power partners (and why both often disappoint)What leverage actually means in business and why effort alone doesn't countWhy most cold pitches for partnerships quietly fail before they startHow strong relationships outperform paid referrals every timeWhat successful power partners exchange instead of moneyWhy partnerships reward momentum — they never replace itPower partnerships aren't the shortcut to growth. They are the reward for momentum you've already built. Focus on becoming valuable, reliable, and useful first, and the right partnerships will follow naturally.Staci's Links:Instagram. Website.

This is a safeguarding episode, not a comfort episode. Children are not collateral damage for adult frustration. They are not background noise. They are not “tiny adults” who should just get over it. And they are not content. This episode pulls apart the most dangerous lie we repeat: “Kids are resilient.” There's a difference between building strength and forcing a child to survive adult-made chaos, yelling, hitting, humiliation, neglect, manipulation, and constant instability. It also calls out the wider system: under-resourced schools, stripped youth services, safeguarding treated like paperwork, and a culture that frames children as problems to manage instead of humans to protect.If you're raising kids, employing parents, building communities, or shaping policy, this is the line: protect children in advance, not after damage is done.8 things to consider:Children are not collateral damage for co-parent conflictKids are not background noise to adult lives“Resilience” vs forced survival: stop confusing the twoDiscipline and consistency matter more than moneyWhy yelling/hitting is adult weakness dressed as parentingSystem failure: safeguarding isn't paperwork, it's vigilanceChildren as content: the moral line is collapsingThe downstream cost: harmed kids become what other kids must navigate Hosted on Acast.

As I wrap up 2025, I wanted to record an episode that goes deeper than trends (but YES, my annual trends prediction is coming up next!)— because what I'm seeing across the industry right now isn't necessarily a lack of ideas.It's a lack of foundations.BLOG for this episodeAfter a full year of interviewing indoor playground and play café owners, working through countless 1:1 sessions, and supporting owners inside Play Maker Society, the same patterns keep showing up — regardless of location, size, or years in business.Owners are busy, but still stressed.They're marketing constantly, but not converting.They're deeply involved, but exhausted.This episode brings together the seven pieces of advice I'm giving to (and getting from!) current owners right now — not based on theory or predictions, but on what I'm actively seeing work (and not work) in real businesses.These are the areas where small leaks are creating big problems — and where tightening the fundamentals can immediately change how a business feels to run in terms of quality of life for YOU, the owner.In this episode, I break down:Why what you post matters more than how often you postHow most websites and patched-together booking systems quietly lose you moneyWhy open play can't be the thing holding your business upHow recurring and high-ticket revenue change how the business feels to runWhy email is still one of the most effective tools owners aren't fully usingHow cafés, retail, and small add-ons raise spend per visit without more trafficWhat actually has to be in place for you to step out without everything breakingI also share real examples from owners I've interviewed, coached, and worked alongside — including how some have intentionally reduced owner dependency, diversified revenue, and designed businesses that work even when they're not physically present.This episode isn't about adding more to your plate. It's about tightening what's already there and focusing on the few things that actually make a difference right now.If you're heading into 2026 feeling busy but still stretched thin, this will help you get clear on where your attention really needs to go next.RESOURCES/ BUSINESSES MENTIONED:BLOG for this episodeLittle Leaf Play IGLittle Play Avenue IG(BLOG) Maximizing Cafe Profits (And Why You NEED A Cafe)Evergeen Facebook + IG Ad BasicsGoogle Ad BasicsInterview with Jayci From Tiny PlayInterview with Justine from Liv and MimisInterview with Jessalyn from The Playroom WVThe Art Factory and Party PlaceGrandma's PlayroomOTHER RESOURCES:Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyGetting Started With Your Play Cafe [YouTube Video Playlist]What's Working In The Indoor Play Industry 2025 GuideFund Your Indoor Play Business [Free Training]Indoor Play Courses & 1:1 Consulting WaitlistMichele's InstagramMichele's WebsitePlay Cafe Academy YouTube ChannelETSY Template ShopPrepare Your Indoor Playground For a RecessionPlay Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com TOOLS & OTHER LINKS:Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers Society: http://bit.ly/3HES7fDQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com Simplify and Scale with 50% OFF WellnessLivingActive Campaign Free TrialFree Demo of Aluvii All-In-One POS

Many clinicians are left wondering if their best work lies in the clinical field or the coaching/consulting arena. I've felt this dilemma myself, pondering how to balance my interests, endeavors, and the evolution of family life. I realized that I couldn't sustain multiple paths, and I made the hard decision to give up my clinical work. If you are struggling along those same lines, I hope today's show gives you insights, clarity, and encouragement.
