In this episode of John Solomon Reports, host John Solomon discusses the latest Supreme Court rulings that have significant implications for American elections and presidential powers. With the nation just days away from its 250th birthday, Solomon reflects on a surprising 5-4 decision allowing election votes to be counted after Election Day, a ruling that caught both conservatives and liberals off guard. He also highlights a major victory for President Trump, who now has enhanced authority to regulate independent board members, following a 6-3 ruling in his favor.Listeners will hear about the ongoing E. Jean Carroll defamation case, where the Supreme Court declined to intervene, as well as the alarming incident involving a JetBlue flight that was struck by a drone while landing at JFK Airport. Solomon emphasizes the growing dangers posed by drones in aviation and the need for increased awareness and regulation.Joining the discussion is Senator Rick Scott, who advocates for daily Senate votes on the Save America Act and shares his thoughts on recent tensions between the U.S. and Iran. The episode also features Keith Krach, CEO of Freedom 250, discussing the upcoming anniversary celebrations, and Carrie Severino, a Supreme Court expert, who provides insights into the significant rulings of the day.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

My focus here is not on being a hero in the fashion our culture uses the word, in regard to caretaking humanity and saving the world. A quick search for the hero's journey says it is a universal story structure where a protagonist ventures out of their comfort zone, faces a major crisis, wins a victory, and returns home profoundly transformed, and in this I find a core of human desire. In author Donald Miller's book, A Million Miles In A Thousand Years he  takes a script writing course and is taught that a good story is about a character who wants something, and overcomes conflict to get it. We all seem to inherently desire deep, fulfilling experiences, and those by proxy tend to include an effort in order to achieve them. Making the effort and overcoming some challenges are part of what make the experience fulfilling. So my expert on the topic is Peter Bailey. Professionally Peter has worked as a leadership strategist for four decades in more than 50 countries. But my interest is Peter's research and discoveries in “Developing Your Heroic Journey Mindset,” of which he has a TED talk by the same title. Recently he's written a book, The Epic of You : Reframe Your Past To Navigate Your Future. As you will hear, at the heart of heroism is not what has happened to you, but how you have responded to life. Peter experienced a difficult childhood and in adulthood has traveled through many of the main trials of life and love. I wanted to dig into how we understand and navigate our lives as we face crisis and not let them dictate the outcomes of our lives.  Sign up for your $1/month trial period at shopify.com/kevin Go to shipstation.com and use code KEVIN to start your free trial.

How many times have you dimmed your light, hidden parts of yourself, or caught yourself judging the way you show up in the world? In this episode, Lacy and Jessica explore visibility, self-worth, deservingness, and authentic expression. They unpack why we resist being seen, and how stepping into visibility becomes one of the most powerful shifts we can step into in the New Paradigm. As we move into an era of refinement, we're being called to question everything that no longer feels true. That includes the magnetic "f*ck it" energy that emerges when we stop performing for love, approval, success, and belonging and start choosing radical authenticity instead. If you've been feeling the call to stop hiding and step into the next version of who you're becoming, this is your invitation. Your manifestations aren't asking you to become someone else; they're asking you to become more of who you truly are. Ready to stop dimming your light and start shining at full luminosity?

Navigating without Panic is a Superpower. In the market, the people who lose the most are usually the ones who let fear make their decisions. They see volatility and forget the plan. Life works the same way. Every challenge doesn't require a reaction, some require trust. GOD never promised there wouldn't be storms, but He did promise you wouldn't have to face them alone. Panic clouds judgment, but faith creates clarity. When you know who you are, what you stand for, and where GOD is leading You, you stop making emotional decisions in temporary situations. Because the goal isn't to avoid turbulence, it's to navigate through it without losing yourself.NAVIGATING WITHOUT PANIC | Wallstreet Trapper (Episode 199) SpaceX IPO, BEAR MARKET, TRUMP⚖

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, we delve into the significant concerns parents have regarding their children's mental health in today's digitally connected world. Host discusses a recent Pew Research Center report revealing that 40% of U.S. parents are extremely worried about their children struggling with anxiety or depression, surpassing fears related to physical dangers such as kidnapping or substance abuse. Dr. Kathy explores the impact of these worries on parental behavior and the importance of focusing on the light amidst the darkness. Join us as we unpack the balance between natural parental fears and the hope found in a supportive, faith-based perspective.

Have you ever heard the words, "That's not fair!" echoing through your home? If you're raising neurodivergent kids (or any kids at all!), chances are this is a familiar refrain. This week on the podcast, the conversation focused on the messy, ongoing topic of sibling conflict and the real meaning of fairness in our families.   Key Takeaways Fair Isn't Equal: True fairness means meeting each child's unique needs, not treating everyone the same. Validate Feelings First: Acknowledge and empathize with your child's sense of injustice—then help them understand differences. Use Simple Scripts: Keep quick, calm responses ready for "that's not fair" moments—don't default to courtroom battles. Normalize Accommodations: Talk openly about why siblings might have different supports, tools, or expectations. Shift to Problem Solving: Encourage kids to express what they need and help brainstorm solutions together instead of focusing on comparison.

Brandon Sedloff sits down with Mike Boggs of Revelation Partners and Justin Burden of Industry Ventures at the Venture Secondaries Summit to explore how venture secondaries have evolved from a tool for distressed sellers into an institutional liquidity engine for private markets. The conversation examines the specialist approach required to succeed in this opaque, relationship-driven market where transactions happen by appointment rather than on open exchanges. They discuss: - Why venture secondaries function as a third liquidity option beyond IPOs and M&A, particularly in healthcare where billion-dollar outcomes are considered large - How secondary buyers navigate competition from insider investors by serving as arm's-length pricing partners for founder share sales - The structural liquidity problem created by over $800 billion in unrealized healthcare value and trillions locked in tech, with secondary funds positioned to address this overhang - Why specialization in specific sectors or deal types is becoming essential as commoditization pressures generalist secondary funds - How the flight to quality means focusing capital on late-stage, proven companies rather than indexing across venture portfolios This episode offers private markets investors and operators a practical view of how venture secondaries create value in an environment where companies stay private longer and traditional exit paths remain constrained. Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro (00:00:29) - Guest introductions and firm backgrounds (00:04:47) - Evolution of venture secondaries as liquidity (00:07:20) - What happens if IPOs and M&A return (00:11:28) - Specialists versus generalists in secondaries (00:13:04) - Secondaries as asset class or strategy (00:17:07) - Overcoming discount buyer perceptions (00:19:47) - Building conviction and underwriting (00:22:58) - Navigating competition from top VCs (00:25:32) - Educating the market on secondary options (00:29:52) - Liquidity challenges for the messy middle (00:33:17) - Transfer rights and insider preferences (00:38:22) - LP secondaries market maturation concerns (00:40:15) - Outlooks on the next 5 to 10 years (00:44:04) - What could stop the growth trajectory (00:47:42) - Competition and differentiation challenges (00:50:49) - Closing Links: Mike Boggs on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-boggs-7921343/ Justin Burden on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/justin-burden-46120a/ Brandon Sedloff on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandonsedloff/ Revelation Partners - https://revelation-partners.com/ Industry Ventures - https://www.industryventures.com/ Juniper Square - https://www.junipersquare.com/

Xavier’s Blueprint for Winning Big Brother Today, in this special “How to Win Big Brother” episode, host Taran Armstrong welcomes BB23 winner Xavier Prather to break down the art of outsmarting, outplaying, and outlasting in the BB house. As secrets swirl and power shifts, smart players are working overtime to balance competitive fire, social bonds, and the risky game of keeping secrets. This week, Taran and Xavier dig into BB26's real-time action: how the players are preparing for— or deciding to throw—key competitions, where the social pecking order stands after a tense HoH, and how some houseguests are navigating jury management even before the votes. The discussion spotlights why studying past seasons (not just relying on AI tips!) can be the real edge, and how knowing what competitions to take seriously, and when to step back, can make a winner. They also highlight how revealing or hiding secrets—about your alliances, your showmances, or your own background—can swing trust in your favor or paint a target on your back, especially deep into the game. Xavier warns that relying on AI advice is lazy—true BB students watch and learn from previous seasons Positioning and perception are everything: players weigh when it's smart to win a comp or throw it without tipping off the house Building genuine social connections—and knowing which secrets to keep or share—can decide your fate and the jury's final vote Messy gameplay versus careful strategy: should players play for the drama or stick to the path of least resistance? The late-game challenge: Xavier reveals why the last evictions can shape the whole jury room, not just the finale chair As alliances shift and deals get cut, one misstep can turn the house upside down. Will BB26’s houseguests take Xavier's advice and control their own fate, or let paranoia and loose lips ruin their game?

One moment he was riding his bike. The next, he was unconscious on the side of the road with no memory of what had happened. This week on I'll Do Better Tomorrow, Justin shares the terrifying cycling accident that left him with a severe concussion, stitches, black eyes, and a completely missing memory of the crash itself. As the family prepares for their daughter's wedding day, the experience becomes a powerful reminder that life can change in an instant — and that the people we love need to know exactly how much they matter. It's a deeply personal conversation about mortality, gratitude, family, and the moments we so often assume we'll get again tomorrow. KEY POINTS:• Justin's near-fatal cycling accident and the frightening reality of memory loss after concussion.• The technology that helped Kylie locate him quickly after the crash.• Why families should always know where loved ones are and how to contact them.• The importance of treating ordinary moments as if they might be the last.• Navigating the emotional complexity of celebrating a wedding while processing trauma.• What parents learn when another child leaves home and starts a new chapter. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE:"Treat this moment like it might be the last time — the last hug, the last meal, the last ordinary day together." RESOURCES MENTIONED:• Garmin incident detection and emergency notifications.• The "Last Time Meditation" concept.• Happy Families podcast episodes on presence and family connection. ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: Make sure your family knows where you're going and how to reach you in an emergency. Review emergency contacts and safety features on your devices. Be fully present during everyday family moments this week. Tell the people you love that you love them — explicitly and often. Spend time reflecting on what matters most and whether your priorities align with it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stoop Theology S1 Episode 12: Navigating Pain and Suffering   In this episode of Stoop Theology, we dive into a difficult but deeply necessary conversation about navigating pain, grief, and disappointment while following Jesus. Does Jesus guarantee us a good life if we follow him? Drawing from personal stories of profound loss, we explore a theology of suffering—and a Savior who doesn't just watch our pain from a distance, but understands it fully.   Guest: Jessica Rice  Stoop Theology is a series rooted in honest, thoughtful conversations about real-life questions. From faith and doubt to culture, justice, relationships, and everyday struggles, we explore what it looks like to wrestle with life and belief—like neighbors talking it out on a stoop. Whether you're deeply rooted in faith, skeptical, or somewhere in between, Stoop Theology is a space for meaningful dialogue about questions that matter.   Hosted by Jordan Rice

The dominant structural shift highlighted is margin pressure and business model viability for MSPs due to workforce reduction driven by AI automation. This is exemplified by Microsoft's introduction of Agent365—an enterprise product licensing AI agents rather than human users—and industry reports forecasting that 30–50% of white-collar jobs may be replaced by AI technologies, according to publication summaries referenced during discussion. The shift fundamentally threatens the per-seat managed services pricing model that has anchored MSP revenue. Evidence of mounting financial risk is provided by the scenario where clients may halve their seat counts within a two-to-three-year window. As stated, this adjustment would immediately cut monthly recurring revenue (MMR) for MSPs. The discussion connects this trend to Microsoft's evolving licensing model and notes an industry-wide consensus reflected in a Capterra survey, which found all surveyed MSPs in 2024 facing significant increases in local competition. The implication is that margin pressure from both automation and intensifying competition is occurring simultaneously. Additional developments reinforce the risks to stability. Security complexity and associated liability are increasing, as non-specialist teams—originally tasked with legacy IT functions—are now expected to take responsibility for security operations without adequate expertise. This burden is heightened by the emergence of unmanaged AI adoption at client organizations, creating new avenues for data exposure and regulatory risk. Surveyed business owners are considering exit or consolidation, citing inability or unwillingness to restructure business models to accommodate these changes. Peer group participation is recognized as widespread but not a direct countermeasure to these structural challenges. For MSPs and IT service providers, the practical implications are clear: reliance on the per-seat model is a growing contract risk, with revenue volatility linked to workforce automation outpacing both the speed of traditional service adaptation and client technology adoption. Accountabilities around AI risk, security governance, and compliance are expanding—often without a corresponding increase in compensable scope or staff capability. Operators must assess vendor dependency (especially in rapidly shifting software licensing models), realign service portfolios towards advisory, compliance, and security, and prepare for sustained market turbulence marked by shrinking margins and rising operational complexity.

Alycia Anderson welcomes back Nashville photographer, disability advocate, and Let Them Stare creator Angelea Yoder to discuss her advocacy, her VACTERL Association diagnosis, and the liberation of moving from hiding invisible medical differences to sharing them publicly, including a Good Morning America segment that shifted her fears into feelings of acceptance. Angelea explains VACTERL and how it has impacted her life through multiple anomalies and more than 20 surgeries, and Alycia shares they have the same VACTERL-related experiences. They focus on Angelea's first Let Them Stare phase, the photography-based children's book Look at Me: Look What I Can Do, now on Kickstarter to raise $40,000 for self-publishing and printing, with tiers for preorders and donating books to schools and hospitals. They also discuss consent and privacy for disabled kids on social media, and Angelea previews future plans including an adult coffee-table book, a disability-focused modeling agency, and a community hub. The episode's mantra is simple and powerful: “Let them stare.”  The Big Ideas Behind the Brave Moments

In this 10th episode interview, Jason Hartman speaks with Jim Huling about the second edition of his book, The Four Disciplines of Execution. The conversation centers on a framework designed to help individuals and organizations move past the "whirlwind" of daily tasks to achieve wildly important goals. Huling explains that success requires a narrow focus on specific objectives and the use of lead measures to track predictive behaviors. He also emphasizes the importance of engagement through visual scoreboards and maintaining a cadence of accountability among teammates. By shifting from top-down authority to peer-to-peer commitments, leaders can foster a culture of high performance and trust. Ultimately, the source highlights how these principles apply across various sectors, including hospitality, the military, and education.   Key Takeaways: 0:00 The biggest housing bill in decades 9:05 Manufactured housing 10:45 Balancing factor and PropertyTracker.com 16:47 Franklin Covey's Jim Huling Join our FREE monthly Masterclass JasonHartman.com/Wednesday http://empoweredinvestor.com/    _______________________________________________________________   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

In today's hybrid and digital workplaces, the instinct for many busy managers is to rely on quick tech tools like AI or generic emails to communicate care. Henna Pryor argues this approach is actually backfiring. She challenges leaders to recognize that we are living in an "age of doubt" where skepticism is the default posture, urging them to close their "signal gaps" by aligning what they say with how they actually show up. Joe Mull sits down with Henna for a conversation about workplace trust and leadership skills. As a workplace performance expert, speaker, and author of Good Awkward and the upcoming book The Signal Gap, Henna brings a wide-ranging career background. From surviving the grueling hours of Big Four public accounting to spending fourteen years in executive search, she uses her front-row seat to team dynamics to help leaders build trust at work and become more believable and impactful. Henna breaks down the difference between cheap and costly signals, explaining why simply expressing gratitude is no longer enough to make employees feel valued. She shares stories from her own career (including her first job at a diner and the sting of being ignored as a high-achieving employee) to illustrate the importance of leadership communication. She also warns against "intent smuggling" and the dangers of public microclaims in the digital age. In this episode, you'll learn:

Self-awareness is supposed to make love easier — so why doesn't it? In this episode of I Think I Like You, Clara explores the paradox so many high-achieving, independent women face: years of personal growth and self-work, but relationships still feel just out of reach. She breaks down why "cocooning" and rest matter before re-entering the dating pool, how avoidance around health, mortality, and intimacy quietly shapes our relationship patterns, and what it really means to move from doing to being in the pursuit of love. If you've ever felt behind in dating despite having your life together everywhere else, this episode offers a different way to think about timing, readiness, and the inner work that actually moves the needle.Key Topics:The paradox of self-awareness and relationship challenges among independent womenThe importance of "cocooning" and self-care before pursuing love activelyMoving from doing to being in the pursuit of loveThe influence of societal and internal pressures to "catch up" by a certain ageStrategies to understand genuine desires versus fears-driven actionsTimestamps: 00:00 - Introduction: The high-achiever's paradox in love00:28 - Self-awareness vs. relationship struggles01:22 - Embracing summer and prioritizing outside activity01:48 - The benefits of weightlifting and community classes for mental clarity02:17 - Juggling parenting, deadlines, and personal growth02:47 - Inspiration behind the episode: conversations with women in early 30s03:13 - The desire for independence versus societal pressure to date03:43 - The importance of knowing yourself in your 30s and beyond04:12 - Navigating chaotic early 30s and establishing identity outside work04:41 - The internal conflict: living fully now vs. fear of missing out05:10 - The challenge of dating apps and perceived "behindness"05:42 - Balancing enjoying the present with societal expectations06:09 - The reality of the dating process and emotional avoidance06:39 - Success story: meeting a partner after healing and reflection07:35 - The importance of cocooning and self-care before entering the dating scene08:04 - The power of internal clarity and self-understanding08:33 - Overcoming the wiring to plan and strategize in emotional intimacy09:20 - Recognizing avoidance behaviors in dating efforts09:50 - The different forms of action: doing vs. being10:17 - Facing fears and disillusionment in dating10:44 - Common experiences: flaky dates, lingerers, and ghosting11:27 - Gaining insight through clarity and inner work11:56 - Personal reflections: health screenings and fears of mortality12:23 - Confronting avoidance of self-care and life planning13:15 - Naming fears around mortality and intimacy14:12 - Moving forward through clarity and action14:42 - Connecting fears to relationship patterns and living authentically15:11 - Reflection questions for inner work on relationship fears16:14 - The timeline of meeting a partner and life stages16:41 - The benefits of patience and self-knowledge in love17:29 - The societal pressures of youth and relationship timelines18:04 - Authentic reasons to pursue love and relationship readiness18:59 - The significance of inner work over external actionConnect with Clara:InstagramWebsite

As housing preferences evolve, more buyers look beyond traditional subdivisions in search of greater privacy, flexibility and personalization. For many, that means building a custom home on land they already own or plan to purchase.  This week on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio, Dean Cowart, principal of Cowart Residential, joins Host Carol Morgan to discuss the growing appeal of build-on-your-lot homes, the custom home building process and how today’s luxury buyers are redefining what they want from their living spaces.  The Growing Demand for Build-on-Your-Lot Homes  Build-on-your-lot construction continues to attract buyers entering a new phase of life. Many homeowners leave behind larger family homes and pursue a more intentional lifestyle on property that offers additional space and privacy. Many of these buyers gravitate toward North Georgia’s mountains and rural landscapes for a quieter pace of life.  “I think it’s a demand that people love to sort of get out of the rat race of Metro Atlanta into something that’s more tranquil,” said Cowart.  Build-on-your-lot opportunities give them the ability to create a residence tailored to their lifestyle without sacrificing location.  Navigating the Challenges of Building on Private Land  While selecting a floor plan excites many buyers, building on private property introduces several variables that they often underestimate. Soil conditions, topography, setback requirements and stormwater regulations all create unique considerations that can affect construction costs and timelines.  “What can be really scary is thinking about placing that on your lot and figuring out what are the nuances to this land that are going to affect the ultimate cost of my house,” said Cowart.  Cowart Residential guides clients through property evaluations before construction begins, helping them understand how factors like home placement, site development costs, surveys and municipal requirements all come together. By taking this proactive approach, the team ensures homeowners have a clearer picture of their overall investment and can move forward with greater confidence, avoiding unexpected challenges later in the process.  More Land Means More Freedom  Build-on-your-lot construction gives homeowners greater freedom. Unlike traditional neighborhoods with HOA restrictions, larger homesites allow homeowners to design a property around their unique needs and interests.  Whether homeowners want a detached workshop, RV storage, an accessory dwelling unit or a hobby farm, they gain significantly more flexibility than they would in a conventional subdivision.  “It [build-on-your-lot construction] really gives you the opportunity to be extremely creative with how you want to use the land and what your family needs are,” said Cowart.  This growing interest in flexibility continues to drive demand for larger homesites and homesteading-style living, trends Cowart expects to gain even more momentum.  Outdoor Living Remains a Top Priority  The pandemic sparked a renewed focus on outdoor living, and that trend continues to shape home design decisions today. Luxury buyers now prioritize seamless connections between indoor and outdoor spaces. Many request outdoor kitchens, covered living areas and expansive patios.  What Luxury Home Buyers Want in 2026  Platforms such as Pinterest, Instagram and Houzz influence how homeowners make design decisions and select products. Instead of relying on magazines and model homes, buyers now arrive with curated ideas and highly specific preferences.  Beyond personalization, buyers also prioritize flexibility during the design process. Cowart Residential often collaborates with homeowners’ interior designers to streamline selections and ensure the finished home reflects the client’s vision.  While kitchens and bathrooms remain focal points, homeowners increasingly seek unique finishes, specialty materials and customized features that set their homes apart.  Balancing Personalization & Budget  Although buyers have access to more inspiration than ever, they must still manage expectations and budgets throughout the custom home process. Cowart emphasizes the importance of involving the builder early, especially when working with an architect on a fully custom design. This collaboration helps align design decisions with financial goals before plans progress too far.  “We like to take an opportunity to have a discovery period,” said Cowart. “The builder can sort of guide you as the designs are getting created, knowing what your ultimate budget is.”  By establishing priorities early and creating a clear roadmap for finishes and selections, builders help homeowners make informed decisions and avoid costly redesigns later in the process.  Building Community at Enclave at Mill Creek  In addition to custom homes and build-on-your-lot opportunities, Cowart Residential is developing Enclave at Mill Creek, a new community in the City of Mulberry near Hamilton Mill.  The community features detached single-family homes in a thoughtfully planned setting that offers privacy, quiet streetscapes and attainable pricing in a highly desirable location. Designed with today's buyers in mind, the homes emphasize functional layouts, modern finishes and low-maintenance living, making them appealing to a wide range of homeowners, from young professionals to those looking to downsize.  Residents will also benefit from convenient access to nearby shopping, dining and major transportation corridors, while still enjoying the laid-back atmosphere of a smaller, emerging city. This balance of accessibility and tranquility has made the area especially attractive to buyers seeking both convenience and a sense of community.  The project has already proven successful due to its unique product offering and strategic location within one of metro Atlanta’s newest cities.  About Cowart Residential  For more than 40 years and across three generations, the Cowart family has built homes and communities throughout metro Atlanta and North Georgia. Led by Dean Cowart and Nick Williams, Cowart Residential specializes in custom homes, build-on-your-lot opportunities and thoughtfully designed residential communities tailored to today’s lifestyles. Drawing on decades of experience in homebuilding, land development and construction, Cowart Residential guides clients through every stage of the process, from site evaluation and design to construction and completion. Whether building on private land or within one of its communities, Cowart Residential is committed to delivering homes that reflect each homeowner’s vision while maintaining the highest standards of craftsmanship, quality and attention to detail.

Chelsie Reveals How to Win Big Brother Big Brother 26 takes center stage as host Taran Armstrong kicks off the “How to Win Big Brother” series with special guest and BB26 winner Chelsie. As Big Brother 28 looms, they break down what it really takes to survive the ever-changing game, especially with new twists and unpredictable power shifts keeping everyone on their toes. In this strategy-packed episode, Taran and Chelsie use the chaos of BB26—featuring the game-changing blockbuster competition that forces three nominees and adds last-minute drama—to talk through the best moves for new houseguests. Chelsie stresses the importance of building a strong social game from minute one, explaining why adaptability trumps having a rigid game plan. Together, they dissect common mistakes, like barking up the wrong alliance tree, putting trust in showmances, and agreeing to be a pawn (bad idea!). From navigating HOH pressures and unpredictable veto outcomes to preparing for the physical demands of late-game competitions, this episode's packed with examples and practical advice—straight from Chelsie's journey to the end. Chelsie breaks down why social strategy always comes before comp wins—your safety is in relationships, not just power. The blockbuster twist shakes up HOH strategy; putting up an ally as a pawn is almost always a recipe for disaster. Never volunteer to go on the block: Taran and Chelsie agree, pawns make easy targets, and repeat nominations paint a target on your back. Endgame comp beasts set the tone, but Chelsie shares why flexibility—not just training—keeps players off the block and in control. Showmances offer drama but rarely win—trusting them, or trying to use them, often backfires for new players. As alliances form and break and every HoH faces tougher choices, the lesson is clear: adaptability and social savvy win games, not just comp strength.

Chelsie breaks down why social strategy always comes before comp wins—your safety is in relationships, not just power. The blockbuster twist shakes up HOH strategy; putting up an ally as a pawn is almost always a recipe for disaster. Never volunteer to go on the block: Taran and Chelsie agree, pawns make easy targets, and repeat nominations paint a target on your back. Endgame comp beasts set the tone, but Chelsie shares why flexibility—not just training—keeps players off the block and in control. Showmances offer drama but rarely win—trusting them, or trying to use them, often backfires for new players. As alliances form and break and every HoH faces tougher choices, the lesson is clear: adaptability and social savvy win games, not just comp strength.

OCD isn’t just about managing symptoms—it’s about understanding the parts beneath them In the third and final part of our OCD series, expert Melissa Mose explores the complexities of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), discussing evidence-based treatments like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and how Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy can complement traditional approaches. Drawing from both professional expertise and personal experience, Melissa shares practical strategies for navigating OCD, while highlighting the roles of self-leadership, compassion, and understanding the different “parts” that influence thoughts, fears, and behaviors. “ERP has been shown to be the most effective treatment.

Episode 7 picks up in the immediate, chaotic aftermath of Milton "Doc" Noss's tragic murder on March 5, 1949. Based entirely on the exhaustive, decades-long research of investigative author John Clarence (the pen name of Jack Staley), this episode shifts the focus to his steadfast wife, Ova Noss, who is left to face a bitter, multi-front war for the Victoria Peak treasure. While Doc's double-crossing killer managed to walk free despite the testimony of five eyewitnesses, Ova soon found herself staring down an even more formidable nemesis: the United States government.Before she could even properly grieve, Ova was plunged into a vicious probate battle. The legal proceedings revealed a shocking secret: Doc had covertly annulled their marriage in an Arkansas court in 1945 and married another woman named Violet. Navigating this heartbreaking personal betrayal, Ova made a brilliant legal pivot on the advice of her attorneys, asserting her rights not merely as a widow, but as the legal co-discoverer of the 1937 treasure. Meanwhile, the probate inventory exposed the terrifying reach of federal authorities, listing seized maps, documents, and dozens of gold bars that had already been confiscated by the Secret Service and the Denver Mint.Refusing to surrender her claim, Ova doubled down on the physical extraction of the gold. She hired contractors to carve a drivable road up the rugged mountain and engineered a new "lower Noss shaft" to bypass the catastrophic 1939 cave-in. But as she inched closer to regaining access to the fabled treasure rooms, the U.S. Army's presence at the White Sands Proving Ground morphed into a hostile occupation. Under the command of Brigadier General George Eddy, the military initiated condemnation proceedings, dismissed Ova's valid state permits, and explicitly threatened Ova and her daughter that they would be "shot on sight" if they returned to the peak.Surrounded by treacherous former partners conspiring to steal her lease and a military apparatus determined to lock her out of her own fortune, Ova stood as a lone David against an impossible Goliath. Tune in to hear how this resilient woman fought to keep her family's massive discovery alive in the face of insurmountable corruption. And remember, if you want to read the definitive account of this incredible saga, you can secure a rare, signed copy of John Clarence's Gold House trilogy by contacting Jeff Crudele directly at podcastjfk@gmail.com.

Are you letting the fear of the unknown hold you back from making profitable real estate deals? In this explosive episode of the Monday Money Coaching Call, host Scott Carson breaks down exactly why traditional real estate investors get trapped by analysis paralysis when transitioning into the note investing world. If you are waiting for a perfect interior inspection, a standard title closing, or traditional after-repair value (ARV) metrics before pulling the trigger on a non-performing loan—you are doing it all wrong! Tune in as we dissect a live Texas mortgage note tape, answer real-time student questions, and reveal how you can achieve an incredible 15% to 28% annualized return by embracing the unknown and leveraging a massive cushion of equity. Key Topics Covered in This EpisodeBidding Blindly and Safely: Why you don't need an interior inspection or a 5% earnest money deposit to put an offer on a vacant or non-performing note. If you hit an unexpected roadblock during due diligence, you can always utilize your "get out of jail free card" to renegotiate or walk away completely. The ARV Myth in Note Buying: Discover why After Repair Value (ARV) doesn't apply on the front end of note investing and how to shift your focus to the loan's true legal balance and foreclosure timelines instead. Navigating the Statute of Limitations: How a state's legal timeline limits how many years of back-payments a lender can actually collect, and how to spot overinflated legal balances on older defaults before you bid. Mastering the Mortgage Tape Terms: A deep dive into complex terms that often intimidate beginners—including Deferred Balances (extending the term to the back-end), Corporate Advances (lenders stepping in to pay delinquent taxes or forced-place insurance), and the difference between UPB and legal balance. Spotting "Emotional Equity": Learn how to visually evaluate a property from the exterior (such as neat landscaping or well-kept cars) to identify a motivated borrower who is highly likely to enter a creative workout agreement to save their home. Analyzing a Live Deal: A step-by-step breakdown of an actual re-performing note in Beaumont, Texas. Scott calculates the cash-on-cash yield and shows how a borrower making 16 payments over 12 months flags a massive "cha-ching" opportunity for passive investors. Stop overcomplicating your investment strategies with complex jargon and AI-generated text that scares off private money partners. Keep it simple, look at the equity, and remember that when you buy the note, even a foreclosure can lead to a bigger payday down the road. The best way to learn note investing is by actively pulling the trigger and making offers. Take a look at your mortgage tapes, look past the dirt, and let's get rocking and rolling!Watch the Original VIDEO HERE!Book a Call With Scott HERE!Sign up for the next FREE One-Day Note Class HERE!Sign up for the WCN Membership HERE!Sign up for the next Note Buying For Dummies Workshop HERE!Love the show?

Feeling safe in a relationship isn't just about talking things through—it's about what happens deep within our bodies. When emotional wounds strike or betrayals occur, the impact is felt not only in the heart but in the nervous system, shifting how we experience and respond to our partners. Real healing goes beyond surface-level dialogue and requires us to understand how our physiological state shapes our sense of security, trust, and connection. In this episode, listeners are guided to rethink emotional safety as a whole-body experience. By unpacking the link between the nervous system and relationship repair, the discussion provides science-backed insights and actionable strategies to rebuild trust and connection after relational harm. Whether you're seeking healing after a rupture or tools for ongoing growth, this episode offers a fresh, embodied perspective on what it takes to create lasting emotional safety. Dr. Monique Thompson is a trauma-informed therapist, life coach, and best-selling author with over two decades of clinical experience. Her work integrates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Polyvagal-informed care, and principles of epigenetics to help individuals and couples heal trauma, rebuild trust, and create lasting emotional regulation and resilience.   Episode Highlights 03:56 Reflecting on healing through a car wreck metaphor. 09:09 Exploring Jill Bo Taylor's groundbreaking insights. 15:37 Exploring modern infidelity in relationships. 17:57 Exploring complex relationship dynamics and boundaries. 20:25 Addressing hidden relationship issues. 24:38 Exploring the hidden mental health benefits of walking. 28:35 Exploring color connections to mood during walks. 31:51 Reflecting on and expressing gratitude with loved ones. 36:12 Decoding therapy lingo and referral insights. 39:36 Navigating decisions with trauma awareness. 43:34 Navigating healing after childhood trauma. 48:58 Exploring stress and its hidden effects. 50:29 Exploring the concept of emotional hygiene. 53:32 Discovering unexpected insights from partners who cheated. 57:04 Exploring relationship growth resources.   Your Checklist of Actions to Take Pause and Breathe: Take a moment of pause with deep breaths to settle yourself and become present before addressing relationship issues. Self-Inquiry: Regularly check in with your deeper feelings and truths, beyond your immediate surface reactions, to get clarity on your emotional state. Take Ownership: If you've contributed to a rupture, take personal responsibility and reflect on the most obvious way you can begin repair, such as ending harmful behaviors. Prioritize Emotional Check-ins: After a rupture or betrayal, consistently check in emotionally with both yourself and your partner to stay aware of what you both need. Spend Time in Nature: Set aside at least 11 minutes outside, either walking or sitting, to help lower stress levels and support nervous system regulation. Engage in Movement: Use mindful walks of 30-45 minutes to process emotions and shift your physiological state toward calm and self-connection. Invite Supportive Companions: Bring to mind or reach out to someone who has supported you in the past, letting their positive influence help regulate your emotions. Seek Professional Guidance: If trauma or recurring ruptures persist, consult a trauma-informed therapist or coach, asking for specific referrals rather than relying on generic online searches.   Mentioned Infidelity Recovery Workbook for Couples (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) My stroke of insight (TED) (video) Helen Fisher (website) Polyvagal Theory (website) Gottman Institute (website) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Depression 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free guide)   Connect with Dr. Monique Thompson Website: doctormoniquethompson.com Facebook: facebook.com/MoniqueThompsonLPC YouTube: youtube.com/@mthompsonlpc Instagram: instagram.com/drmoniquethompson LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dr-monique-thompson-dha-lpc-lpc-s-a3066041

In this episode of The Forgotten Podcast, Jami sits down with Vania Ferreira to address a sensitive and profoundly challenging topic that foster and adoptive families occasionally face but rarely discuss: what to do when your child hurts another child. Vania opens up about her family's lived experiences with severe behavioral challenges, trauma-induced chaos, and navigating the heartbreaking revelation of child-on-child sexual abuse. Vania shares the raw realities of her family's journey, which began under-prepared as an unexpected kinship emergency placement in late 2013. She details the intense initial year of dealing with extreme anger, threats, and violence from children who had been exposed to heavy domestic abuse. Just as their home was transitioning into a season of calm and trust, the family faced their ultimate nightmare when their child disclosed experiencing sexual abuse and vocalized an active intent to hurt other children. Vania openly describes the overwhelming whirlwind that followed, including police reports, hospital evaluations, state investigations, and a complete lack of public inpatient resources. Throughout the conversation, Vania details how this crisis forced her family into deep isolation, unable to safely participate in church or community events. She addresses the painful legal and emotional crossroads her family endured, caught between threats of child abandonment and child endangerment from the state. Ultimately, the episode highlights the profound spiritual turning point where the Lord challenged Vania to move past natural anger and hatred, choosing to extend the unconditional love and forgiveness of Christ to a child acting out in brokenness. This episode offers critical, life-saving guidance on body safety and boundary rules for young children. Vania provides invaluable advice on teaching accurate body terminology without shame, defining the strict line between secrets and surprises, and establishing safe words. It stands as a vital resource and a message of redemption, reminding caregivers that they are not alone and that true healing is possible through the strength and identity found in Christ. About the Guest Vania Ferreira has been an active part of the foster and adoption community alongside her husband, Rob, since 2013. She is a mother to many, including four children whom they have adopted. Having walked through unexpected kinship placements and navigating complex trauma within her home, Vania is dedicated to breaking the silence surrounding child-on-child abuse by offering families practical boundary education and gospel-centered hope. In This Episode The unique vulnerabilities of entering kinship care through emergency guardianship without traditional foster parent training. Managing extreme childhood trauma behaviors, threats of violence, and a desire for chaos in the home. Navigating the intense aftermath of a child's sexual abuse disclosure, including medical evaluations and state agency investigations. The severe isolation families face when dealing with behavioral safety concerns that prevent them from accessing church or local community groups. Facing systemic gaps, including the total lack of inpatient services for young children and a state system that leaves parents trapped between child abandonment and endangerment charges. The challenging spiritual calling to protect biological children through separation while continuing to love, forgive, and advocate for a child who has caused harm. Practical body safety guidelines for parents, including teaching correct anatomy terms, establishing household boundary rules, and practicing situational exits. Redefining the difference between dangerous "secrets" and safe "surprises" to equip vulnerable children with a protective voice. Creating a family culture centered on Ephesians 6, daily scriptural anchoring, and trusting in the Lord's strength over your own.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Jennifer Gaddis. Interview Summary Show: Money Making Conversations MasterclassHost: Rushion McDonaldGuest: Jennifer Gaddis – Senior Quality Assurance Engineer, Educator, Founder of Road to QA 1. Purpose of the Interview The primary purpose of the interview is to inspire and educate everyday people—especially those without college degrees or traditional tech backgrounds—on how to pivot into technology careers, specifically Quality Assurance (QA), and to reframe fear around AI, layoffs, and automation into opportunity. Jennifer’s story is used as proof of concept that: You do not need a college degree to succeed in tech Transferable skills already qualify many people for QA roles AI does not eliminate jobs—it creates new opportunities Strategic career pivots can result in life-changing income and freedom Rushion positions Jennifer not only as a success story, but as a new blueprint for wealth-building through skills, not credentials. [ 2. Interview Overview (High-Level Summary) Jennifer Gaddis shares how she: Pivoted into tech in 2021 with no degree Went from $40K to six figures within 90 days Built a $400K+ remote household income with her husband Created Road to QA, helping 200+ people land tech jobs Accidentally built a multi-million-dollar education business Used personal hardship, COVID, financial stress, and family responsibility as fuel—not limitations She explains what Quality Assurance engineering is, why it is resistant to AI replacement, and how regular users of apps are already doing parts of QA work without realizing it. 3. Key Takeaways A. You’re Already More Qualified Than You Think Jennifer emphasizes that everyday digital behavior translates into QA skills: Using apps Identifying bugs Expecting software to “work correctly” Navigating systems as an end user This insight forms the core of her teaching philosophy. B. The Faster You Add Skills, the Faster You Increase Income Jennifer repeatedly notes: “The difference in your paycheck is your skillset.” By stacking skills (manual QA → automation → AI testing), professionals increase their market value, not just job security. C.
