New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW In this energetic and motivational conversation, Hall of Fame speaker Dr. Willie Jolley joins Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass to discuss his new book, “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better.” The interview covers the difference between being rich and being wealthy, the mindsets required for long-term financial growth, and how individuals—no matter their background—can build generational wealth. Jolley also emphasizes discipline, humility, planning, multiple streams of income, overcoming setbacks, and the importance of insurance and protection of assets. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The interview aims to: 1. Introduce and promote Dr. Jolley’s new book “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better” and the teachings within it. 2. Educate listeners on the distinction between rich and wealthy Jolley wants audiences to understand wealth in generational, not short-term, terms. 3. Motivate individuals to shift their financial mindset From “working money” to “mailbox money.” 4. Empower entrepreneurs and families To adopt discipline, drop pride, and create multigenerational financial systems. 5. Share Jolley’s personal setback‑to‑success story To reinforce that anyone can grow wealth with the right principles. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Rich vs. Wealthy Being rich = high income, often tied to active labor (e.g., athlete contracts). Being wealthy = passive income, ownership, generational sustainability. A rich football player earns millions; the team owner earns billions and doesn’t have to “run up and down the field.” 2. The Five Money Mindsets Jolley explains five financial mindsets: One‑day mindset – living day to day. 30‑day mindset – fixed incomes/check-to-check living. One‑year mindset – annual thinking (raises, annual income). Decade mindset – typical for entertainers/athletes with multi‑year contracts. Generational mindset (Wealth Mindset) – building wealth to last multiple generations. Jolley’s goal: move people up just one level at a time. 3. Five Types of Wealth Jolley breaks wealth into five categories: Financial Wealth Health Wealth (“A sick person has one dream; a healthy person has a thousand.” – Les Brown) Relationship Wealth Reputational Wealth (Brand) Intellectual Capital Wealth (What you know and can charge for) 4. Discipline Is the Key Wealth requires: Living below your means Investing the difference Consistency Avoiding arrogance and ignorance 5. Pride Is an Enemy of Wealth Pride leads people to overspend to keep up appearances.Jolley argues that pride “kills wealth” and must be replaced with planning and humility. 6. The Three Legs of Wealth To build sustainable wealth, you need: Income Investment (letting money work for you) Insurance (life, health, car, disability, long-term care) 7. Multiple Streams of Income Jolley urges everyone to build at least two streams of income from: Stocks Bonds Real estate Crypto Collectibles Jewelry Art Content creation 8. Overcoming Setbacks Jolley details his own journey from unemployed nightclub singer to globally recognized motivational speaker.He reinforces that a setback is a setup for a comeback—the core message of his earlier bestselling book. 9. It’s Never Too Late to Start He cites examples of: A secretary who retired with $8M by investing small amounts over time Invested $12,000 at age 65 and grew it to $890,000 by age 72 NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Time & Opportunity “I have only just a minute… but it’s up to me to use it.” On Mindset “Wealth starts in your mind.” On Rich vs. Wealthy “Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.” On Pride “My pride was killing my wealth.” On Growth & Learning “If you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you.” [On Setbacks “A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.” On Starting Late “When is the best time to plant a tree? Eighty years ago. The second-best time? Today.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Helen Lo is the founder of Lo & Sons, the cult-favorite travel bag brand that basically invented the stylish carry-on for working women.Helen started the company at 65 years old, after she had already retired. She was born into a privileged family in China that lost it all when her father died. She grew up in poverty, went to boarding school at seven, and promised herself she would never be poor again. She earned a PhD while raising babies, spent decades moving city to city for her husband's career, reinventing herself every single time. And when she finally said "I'm done," she couldn't find a travel bag that actually worked for women. So she recruited her two sons and flew to a factory in China with zero fashion or manufacturing experience. Nine prototypes later, she had the bag that built the business. Today, Lo & Sons is in its sixteenth year, still family run, built without a dollar of outside funding.In this episode, Helen breaks down exactly how she went from idea to real business, how she validated the concept before spending a dime, how one phone call to a friend of a friend unlocked their first factory, and how they caught the early Facebook wave and one blog feature that changed the trajectory of the brand. She also gets really honest about what it costs to build a business with your own children, why she stepped down as CEO of her own company, the trade show flop that taught them everything, and the mistakes that slowed them down, like hiring too fast and pivoting too slow. Helen is proof that you don't need investors, industry experience, or perfect timing, just a real problem, the willingness to learn, and the courage to start. If you've been telling yourself it's too late or that this chapter of your life is already written, this is the conversation you need to hear.In this episode, we'll talk to Helen about:* Why getting out of your comfort zone starts with an inner calling. [02:37]* Growing up in poverty after losing everything and developing determination. [04:56]* Generosity as her guiding principles in life and business. [05:55]* Why an abundance mindset creates unexpected opportunities. [07:59]* Putting her career on hold while supporting her husband's path and raising a family. [09:21]* The biggest career lesson she learned from earning a PhD. [10:41]* How a frustrating travel problem inspired the idea for a better bag. [12:41]* How a lifelong curiosity fueled her entrepreneurial mindset. [17:48]* Validating the business idea by talking to the right target customer. [20:01]* Building the company alongside her sons and defining their roles. [21:00]* Finding the first factory and learning product development from scratch. [24:48]* The design feedback that transformed the original bag into the OG. [26:37]* Refining every detail through customer feedback and multiple prototypes. [30:37]* Why trade shows failed and social media became the brand's breakthrough. [33:04]* How partnering with the right influencer became a major turning point for the brand. [34:45]* Navigating today's changing marketing landscape. [37:06]* The challenges of building a business alongside family. [39:27]* Why stepping down as CEO was the right decision. [41:30]* Why pivoting quickly and hiring intentionally are essential for long-term growth. [44:37]* Why she wanted to be a mom again instead of her sons' boss. [46:15]* Why persistence matters, but knowing when to pivot matters more.

You know him as Dani Rojas on Ted Lasso. He's also a professional footballer with El Paso Locomotive FC, a filmmaker, and now the author of a bilingual picture book, Fútbol Is Life! / ¡Fútbol es vida!, illustrated by James Rey Sanchez. But before all of that? He was a life insurance salesman who sold nothing for a year. This conversation is about what happens between the dream and the arriving. About injuries that turn out to be redirections. About why "be curious, not judgmental" might be the most useful thing we can teach — and keep learning ourselves. In this episode: (00:01) The gotcha question: is Cristo actually a superhero? (01:27) The family example: why "the more you give, the more you receive" (03:32) What team sports teach us about not being the star (04:19) Injuries, rejection, and becoming a hustler: "I love when someone tells me no" (09:22) The market scene: remembering to pause and notice (10:31) What Dani Rojas reminds Cristo about joy (12:55) Embracing where you come from as a superpower (14:09) Collaboration, and never thinking you know everything (16:30) Why a children's book is the perfect format for dreaming big Quotes worth stealing: "I love when someone tells me no. It might not be no here, but it might be yes somewhere else." "Aim for the moon. If you don't hit the moon, you hit a star. And if you don't hit a star, you hit some space dust — and that's fine too." "There's not one single way of being Mexican or being American or being Latino. We all bring something great to the table."

Dr. Lotte Valentin: Near-Death Experiences, the Ancestral Field, and Med School at 54 Host Kara Goodwin welcomes Dr. Lotte Valentin, an author, evidential psychic medium, medical medium, ancestral healer, and creator of the Kindraya healing method, to discuss two near-death experiences that shifted her from atheism to spiritual awareness, activated mediumship, and eventually led her to naturopathic medical school at age 54. Dr. Lotte recounts the dramatic story of hemorrhaging after childbirth in 1992, leaving her body into a timeless state of peace and unconditional love, and later a second NDE involving darkness, a brilliant light she calls Source, angels, spirit guides, and a vision of a glittering grid around Earth representing interconnectedness. She shares how these NDEs ignited her psychic development, inspired her to become a naturopath, and have helped her heal others. She and Kara compare these themes with Kara's past dream about remembering how everything works but not retaining it upon waking. Dr. Lottie explains the ancestral field through DNA, epigenetics, trauma inheritance research, and patterns of family loyalty, describing how her work blends cognitive, somatic, and intuitive approaches and how mediumship integrates into her medical intuitive practice. https://drlotte.com/

Many women reach midlife feeling stuck or uncertain about the next chapter—but what if the biggest shifts happen when you stop doing the things holding you back?

What if the hardest part of parenting… isn't raising children—but learning how to relate to them as adults?In this powerful and eye-opening episode, I sit down with Catherine Hickem—licensed clinical social worker, psychotherapist, executive coach, and founder of Parenting Adult Children Today—to explore one of the most overlooked and emotionally complex stages of family life: parenting adult children.With over 40 years of experience helping families navigate conflict, change, and growth, Catherine brings both professional expertise and personal insight to a topic that affects nearly every family—yet is rarely talked about openly.We dive into why so many parent-child relationships become strained over time, and what it really takes to rebuild trust, connection, and mutual respect.One statistic is especially striking: 1 in 4 adults is estranged from at least one parent. This isn't random—it's often the result of unspoken expectations, unresolved conflict, and missed opportunities for repair.Catherine challenges parents to take a courageous and honest look inward—shifting from reaction to reflection, from control to curiosity, and from authority to partnership.We also talk about the grief many parents carry—the loss of the child they imagined—and how processing that grief is essential to truly loving and accepting the adult child in front of them.This conversation is filled with compassion, clarity, and practical wisdom for anyone who wants a healthier, more meaningful relationship with their adult children.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why so many adult children become estranged from their parentsHow unspoken expectations quietly damage relationshipsThe critical shift from authority figure to trusted allyWhy parents must do their own inner work to rebuild connectionHow grief plays a hidden role in family relationshipsPractical ways to create safety, trust, and open communicationHow to move from control to curiosity in your parentingAbout Catherine Hickem:Catherine Hickem is a licensed clinical social worker, seasoned psychotherapist, executive coach, and founder of Parenting Adult Children Today.

There is a version of love most of us were never shown. Not because it doesn't exist, but because the people who raised us hadn't found it yet either. Terry Real has spent his life showing us what that love looks like. He is a family therapist, the creator of Relational Life Therapy, the founder of the Relational Life Institute, and the bestselling author of four books including Us: Getting Past You and Me to Build a More Loving Relationship. His first book, I Don't Want to Talk About It, published in 1997, was the first book ever written on male depression. Esther Perel has said, ‘When I need advice, I call Terry Real.' He is also Robin's former therapist. He sat with her through one of the hardest chapters of her life. And this conversation is unlike any other in this series, because today Robin gets to flip the dynamic and ask Terry questions. In this episode, recorded in Boston, they explore what it actually takes to break the cycle of generational trauma and love better than we were taught. They talk about the Adaptive Child and the Wise Adult, why grandiosity feels good and what it costs you, and what it means to be the one person in a generation who turns and faces the flames.

She discusses misconceptions and treatable issues such as urinary leakage, tailbone pain, constipation, fertility support, painful intimacy, pelvic pain with periods, and prolapse-related pressure. Allred outlines Ilara's prevention-focused, whole-body approach, describes the pelvic floor's role in bowel/bladder, sexual function, pressure management, and force transfer, and shares a seasons-of-healing framework.

George Wright III uses the Independence Day weekend to challenge entrepreneurs and high achievers to examine whether they are personally free—mentally, emotionally, and financially—rather than just legally or politically. He argues many build businesses that own them, becoming trapped by stress, comparison, fear, and endless to-do lists, and says true independence is deeper than money or time: it's the ability to choose your response, maintain clarity in chaos, and pursue goals with peace. Freedom begins in the mind, requiring a shift away from fear, comparison, and past limitations. He emphasizes that every kind of freedom has a price—discipline, delayed gratification, systems, forgiveness—and invites listeners to write a personal declaration of independence by identifying what to become free from and starting a daily discipline today, while also directing them to dailymastermind.com for resources, a newsletter, and AI automation protocols.00:00 Are You Really Free01:11 Entrepreneurship and Freedom01:49 True Independence Within02:26 Mindset Builds Freedom03:23 The Price of Freedom04:16 Declare Independence From05:17 Declare Independence For06:08 Write Your Declaration DailyThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

George Wright III explains that many people compromise their vision by constantly “negotiating” with themselves—hitting snooze, skipping workouts, postponing calls, and delaying hard conversations—and that each small, justified compromise makes the future “pay the price.” He argues success is determined not by promises made when motivated but by promises kept when motivation is gone, because repeated broken commitments condition the mind to see one's word as negotiable, weakening self-trust, confidence, discipline, and momentum. High performers rely on identity rather than mood, asking “What did I commit to?” instead of “Do I feel like it?” He challenges listeners to identify one promise they've been bargaining on and keep it today and tomorrow, building identity through consistency, and invites them to share the episode and join the community at dailymastermind.com.00:00 Stop Negotiating Yourself01:44 Promises vs Motivation02:31 Small Compromises Add Up03:56 Broken Promises Kill Trust05:39 Commitments Over Feelings06:58 One Promise Challenge08:06 Greatness Built Quietly08:53 Final Motivation and ShareThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

Today George is going to talk about how “Someday” is a costly, dangerous word because it gives permission to delay while today slips away. He challenges the misconception that extraordinary lives are built on big breakthrough moments, explaining they are created through thousands of ordinary days filled with discipline, habits, and small actions taken when nobody is watching. He urges listeners to stop asking what extraordinary thing to do and instead choose one ordinary action today—like working out, making an avoided call, reading instead of scrolling, or having an important conversation—that a future self will appreciate. He proposes evaluating whether repeating today for five years would produce the desired life and, if not, changing the day now. He invites listeners to join the Daily Mastermind community at dailymastermind.com.00:16 Someday Costs You01:02 Ordinary Days Build Greatness02:49 Later Becomes Never03:47 One Small Action Today04:46 The Five Year Test05:37 Stop Waiting Start Building07:03 Stay Focused and DisciplinedThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW In this energetic and motivational conversation, Hall of Fame speaker Dr. Willie Jolley joins Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass to discuss his new book, “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better.” The interview covers the difference between being rich and being wealthy, the mindsets required for long-term financial growth, and how individuals—no matter their background—can build generational wealth. Jolley also emphasizes discipline, humility, planning, multiple streams of income, overcoming setbacks, and the importance of insurance and protection of assets. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The interview aims to: 1. Introduce and promote Dr. Jolley’s new book “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better” and the teachings within it. 2. Educate listeners on the distinction between rich and wealthy Jolley wants audiences to understand wealth in generational, not short-term, terms. 3. Motivate individuals to shift their financial mindset From “working money” to “mailbox money.” 4. Empower entrepreneurs and families To adopt discipline, drop pride, and create multigenerational financial systems. 5. Share Jolley’s personal setback‑to‑success story To reinforce that anyone can grow wealth with the right principles. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Rich vs. Wealthy Being rich = high income, often tied to active labor (e.g., athlete contracts). Being wealthy = passive income, ownership, generational sustainability. A rich football player earns millions; the team owner earns billions and doesn’t have to “run up and down the field.” 2. The Five Money Mindsets Jolley explains five financial mindsets: One‑day mindset – living day to day. 30‑day mindset – fixed incomes/check-to-check living. One‑year mindset – annual thinking (raises, annual income). Decade mindset – typical for entertainers/athletes with multi‑year contracts. Generational mindset (Wealth Mindset) – building wealth to last multiple generations. Jolley’s goal: move people up just one level at a time. 3. Five Types of Wealth Jolley breaks wealth into five categories: Financial Wealth Health Wealth (“A sick person has one dream; a healthy person has a thousand.” – Les Brown) Relationship Wealth Reputational Wealth (Brand) Intellectual Capital Wealth (What you know and can charge for) 4. Discipline Is the Key Wealth requires: Living below your means Investing the difference Consistency Avoiding arrogance and ignorance 5. Pride Is an Enemy of Wealth Pride leads people to overspend to keep up appearances.Jolley argues that pride “kills wealth” and must be replaced with planning and humility. 6. The Three Legs of Wealth To build sustainable wealth, you need: Income Investment (letting money work for you) Insurance (life, health, car, disability, long-term care) 7. Multiple Streams of Income Jolley urges everyone to build at least two streams of income from: Stocks Bonds Real estate Crypto Collectibles Jewelry Art Content creation 8. Overcoming Setbacks Jolley details his own journey from unemployed nightclub singer to globally recognized motivational speaker.He reinforces that a setback is a setup for a comeback—the core message of his earlier bestselling book. 9. It’s Never Too Late to Start He cites examples of: A secretary who retired with $8M by investing small amounts over time Invested $12,000 at age 65 and grew it to $890,000 by age 72 NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Time & Opportunity “I have only just a minute… but it’s up to me to use it.” On Mindset “Wealth starts in your mind.” On Rich vs. Wealthy “Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.” On Pride “My pride was killing my wealth.” On Growth & Learning “If you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you.” [On Setbacks “A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.” On Starting Late “When is the best time to plant a tree?

I'm revisiting one of my favorite conversations with bestselling author Steven Pressfield, whose wisdom on fear, resistance, and creativity has inspired millions. If you've been sitting on an idea, delaying your next move, or wondering why the work that matters most feels the hardest to begin, this episode will give you the perspective—and the push—you need.When Steven Pressfield published The Legend of Bagger Vance, many called him an overnight success. What they didn't see were the 30 years of failed novels, unproduced screenplays, and stretches of homelessness that came before it.Few conversations left an impact on me as this one did. Steven is now in his eighties and still creating, doing what he loves, and showing no signs of stopping. I never thought about fear the same after this podcast, thanks to Steven's words.

George Wright III interviews Hugh Hornsby, founder of Blue Collar Smart, about his journey in the skilled trades and his people-first philosophy. Hornsby recounts being diagnosed with epilepsy at age 10, being discouraged in school, and his mother's “yellow pad” approach to move from setbacks to action, shaping his “underdog advantage.” He describes starting in the warehouse at Ferguson during the 1981 recession, later scaling organizations and mentoring hundreds by helping them reconnect with the “dream they left behind,” invest in themselves, join something bigger, and give back. Hornsby shares examples of building culture by believing in overlooked hires, discusses resilience through niche focus and alignment, and explains AI as a support tool that frees people to do what they do best without losing human connection. He also shares how stage four prostate cancer prompted journaling and launching his Blue Collar Smart podcast and book chapter giveaway.00:00 Yellow Pad Turning Point00:48 Meet Hugh Hornsby02:04 Breaking Into Trades03:48 Underdog Advantage Origins09:12 Special Needs Setback11:19 People Build Business15:30 Belief Based Hiring17:31 Niches And Innovation19:08 Alignment And Relationships21:07 Culture And Workforce23:30 AI With Human Touch26:01 Cancer And New Mission32:34 Trades Future And Opportunity35:02 Free Book Chapter Offer36:31 Self Talk And ClosingThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

What if everything you have been doing "right" is the exact thing keeping you stuck? In this episode I sit down with one of my favorite people in the world, Keren Eldad, known to most as Coach Keren. She is a top executive coach, recognized in the ICF Top Ten, and the bestselling author of Gilded and its new sequel Gilt Free. Keren has spent a decade taking high achievers out of the endless pursuit of more and into a life that actually feels genuine. We talk about her new book, the gilded cage we all live inside without noticing, and the moment she stopped trying to do things the right way and decided that doing the opposite would be her religion. This one goes deep on identity, money, and what it really means to become the person who has the thing instead of the person who wants it. Keren also shares the wildest, most inspiring money story you will hear all year. In this episode: Why most of what high achievers do "right" is actually keeping them caged The difference between the person who wants the thing and the person who already has it Keren's G.O.L.D. framework for ascending without falling into ego The rent money story that turned into a thriving coaching business overnight Why backup plans quietly keep you tethered to the cage How she went from broke to a millionaire several times over, starting at forty To learn more about Keren, visit kereneldad.com To join my free series Expanding Money, visit thespiritualinvestor.com/expandingmoney and start expanding your wealth today.

George Wright III interviews Colton Page, managing partner at PlatPay, about how entrepreneurs lose money daily through overlooked payment infrastructure, hidden fees, fraud, and risk. Page explains that payment processing is more than “hooking up Stripe,” requiring proper architecture across gateways, CRMs, plugins, and banking relationships, including true redundancy across different banks rather than multiple processors tied to the same bank. They discuss trends like friendly fraud and chargebacks at scale, owner-operator versus enterprise roles, and growth leakage from unnoticed fees, downgrades, and declines, with examples of businesses overpaying by tens of thousands per month. Page outlines PlatPay's ability to interpret large, antiquated Visa data files to surface actionable insights, then layer secure AI in a dashboard to help owners make faster decisions.

In memory of the great James Borrows we rebroadcasting this episode of "Dont Be Alone with Jay Kogen". We talk with James Burrows about his reign as Hollywood's greatest sitcom director, being the son of Abe Burrows, the genetics of comedy, his book "Directed by James Burrows", "Cheers", "Will & Grace", "The Mary Tyler Moore Show", "Taxi", "Friends", the scripts that make him want to direct, the ones that don't, his amazing memory, his humble beginnings, the decade it took him to learn how to direct, working with geniuses like James L. Brooks, Chuck Lorre, and Kohan & Mutchnick, and Andy Kaufman. And Jimmy explains how his two best friends are Al Michaels and Bruce Springsteen. BIO: James Burrows was one of television's most respected and honored creative talents. Over his distinguished career, Burrows was the recipient of eleven Emmys, five Directors Guild of America Awards, the 1996 American Comedy Awards' Creative Achievement Award, the Television Critics Association's Career Achievement Award, and in 2006 he was inducted into the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences' Hall of Fame and was honored by the US Comedy Arts Festival with their Career Tribute Award. He was the recipient of 22 nominations for the Directors Guild of America Award, thus bestowing him the honor of being the most nominated director in the history of television at the Guild. He was honored by the DGA with the Inaugural 2014 Lifetime Achievement Award in Television. In November of 2015 he directed his 1,000th episode, which was recognized by a TV Special on NBC in January of 2016. Burrows' success as the director of television pilots was legendary. He directed the first two episodes of the "Frasier" reboot's second season, and wrapped the pilot "Mid-Century Modern" for Fox, which went to series. In January of 2020, he received his fifth DGA Award for directing the Emmy Award-winning show "Live in Front of a Studio Audience #1: Norman Lear's All in the Family and The Jeffersons." He was also asked back to direct "Live in Front of a Studio Audience #3: Diff'rent Strokes and The Facts of Life" in December of 2021. In June of 2022, he published his autobiography, "Directed by James Burrows," which received considerable attention and praise from the industry. Burrows was probably best known as co-creator, executive producer and director of the critically acclaimed series "Cheers." The hit show, which aired for 11 seasons, is tied for the most nominated Comedy series in the Television Academy's history and is in third place for most Emmys received by a Comedy Series. Burrows also received numerous awards for his work on "Will & Grace," "Frasier," "Friends," "Wings," "Night Court," "Taxi," and "Dear John." For the first time in 25 years, he returned to the stage in the spring of 1998 to direct the highly acclaimed "The Man Who Came to Dinner" at the Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago, starring John Mahoney. Burrows learned his trade from the very best, the legendary writer/director Abe Burrows, whose noted career included such classics as "Guys and Dolls," "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying," and "Cactus Flower." Born in Los Angeles and raised in New York, Burrows graduated from Oberlin College and continued his education at Yale, where he earned a Master of Fine Arts degree. Burrows relocated to Hollywood to work as a dialogue coach for "O.K. Crackerby!," a short-lived television series starring Burl Ives. When the show ended, he returned to New York and initially worked as a stage manager before directing several off-Broadway shows, such as "The Castro Complex," and stock productions of "The Odd Couple" and "Never Too Late." In 1974, Burrows moved back to the West Coast when he was invited to visit MTM Productions in Los Angeles and offered a job directing an episode of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show." Mr. Burrows and his wife, Debbie, resided in Los Angeles and between them they had four daughters. He passed away on June 19, 2026. He left an indelible mark on American television. He will be remembered and missed. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
George Wright III interviews Braeden and Madison Furgeson, husband-and-wife founders of Venn Social, a bootstrapped, self-funded social platform designed around connection instead of attention. The idea began as an infertility support app after Madison struggled through years of infertility and miscarriages and found meaningful help only when matched with someone in the same stage, highlighting that topic-based groups lump very different situations together. They broadened the concept into a community platform for anyone seeking real connection. Venn Social features “circles” that use filtering questions to place users into sub-circles with people who answered similarly, a discover feed that prioritizes followed accounts and circles, and a transparent algorithm users can view. Culture is enforced through the Venn Code and an Aura score system that rewards good behavior and restricts trolls. They share a vision to replace toxic social media and help address loneliness.00:00 From Infertility to Connection00:51 Meet the Founders02:26 The Infertility Struggle05:36 Why Topic Groups Fail08:03 Bootstrapping Mission First10:10 Marriage as Co-Founders13:33 What Social Media Broke19:04 Defining Venn Social20:15 Circles and Filtering21:14 Circle Matching Topics22:02 Life Phases Mentors23:01 Discover Feed Explained24:59 Transparent Algorithm Rules26:11 Venn Code Culture27:52 Aura Score Moderation30:22 Creators Connection Focus35:03 Vision Replace Social37:53 Find Ven Download38:31 Closing Share EpisodeThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

Designed as the first troll-free, connection-based social network with a transparent algorithm, Venn helps users build authentic relationships by matching them into small communities of people experiencing similar life situations. Their mission is to serve those who are tired of traditional social media platforms that capture attention but often provide little value and leave users feeling more isolated. Entirely self-funded and built without outside investors, Braeden and Madison have personally invested everything into bringing Venn to life, driven by a belief that social media should strengthen human connection rather than diminish it.LinksWebsite: http://findmyvenn.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/braeden-furgeson/

Resilience: Turning Setbacks Into ComebacksGeorge Wright III explains that adversity doesn't build character as much as it reveals it, and pressure exposes whether confidence is based on circumstances or conviction. He argues success depends less on strategy and more on resilience—the ability to keep moving forward when things get hard—and notes that meaningful goals always bring resistance. He shares a three-step framework for navigating setbacks: accept reality, control what you can control (mindset, effort, attitude, response), and take the next action one step at a time. He encourages reframing failure as feedback rather than identity, and emphasizes resilience is built before crises through daily habits and kept commitments. He adds leadership is tested in uncertainty and requires modeling perspective and solution focus, reminding listeners challenges can become new chapters.00:00 Adversity Reveals You00:40 Welcome and Weekly Mindset01:11 Why Resilience Matters02:04 Growth Needs Resistance02:37 Setbacks Test Beliefs03:34 Three Step Resilience Formula04:10 Accept Reality First04:30 Control What You Can05:03 Take the Next Step05:30 Reframe Failure as Feedback06:54 Build Resilience Daily08:15 Resilient Leadership Under Pressure09:18 Hidden Gifts of Setbacks10:21 You Are Stronger Than You Think11:44 Final Challenge and ShareThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

This church podcast message powerfully centers on FAITH, FATHERHOOD, DISCIPLESHIP, and SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP, calling believers—especially fathers—to embrace their DIVINE ASSIGNMENT to lead their families in a way that POINTS CHILDREN TO JESUS CHRIST. It emphasizes that true fatherhood goes beyond provision and success, focusing instead on LOVE, GUIDANCE, CORRECTION, and being a GODLY EXAMPLE through daily actions. Fathers are encouraged to be VULNERABLE, to say “I LOVE YOU,” to admit “I WAS WRONG,” and to walk in HUMILITY and REPENTANCE, true strength is not emotional distance but a CHRIST-CENTERED LIFE. The message reinforces that children learn more from what we DO than what we SAY, highlighting the importance of modeling OBEDIENCE, HOLINESS, and a genuine RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. At the heart of the church's mission is REACHING THE LOST, RESTORING THE BROKEN, and REVIVING BELIEVERS, which begins in the home through intentional DISCIPLESHIP and building a strong SPIRITUAL FOUNDATION. Families are called to establish FAMILY DEVOTIONS and a FAMILY ALTAR, creating a sacred space where PRAYER, WORSHIP, and the WORD OF GOD shape the hearts of the next generation. This intentional dedication fosters a place of GOD'S PRESENCE, PEACE, PROTECTION, and PURPOSE, preparing children to stand firm in a fallen world and follow GOD'S CALLING wherever He leads. The message also underscores the importance of DEDICATION TO JESUS CHRIST above all else, reminding believers that faith must be lived out with PURPOSE, PASSION, and SACRIFICE. Serving in God's house is not just a duty but an act of WORSHIP, done wholeheartedly as unto the Lord, recognizing that every act of service contributes to advancing the KINGDOM OF GOD. Through PERSONAL DEVOTION, fathers receive the strength, WISDOM, and ANOINTING needed to lead effectively, as their authority flows from their intimate relationship with their HEAVENLY FATHER. Ultimately, this message is a call to ACTION—encouraging believers that it is NEVER TOO LATE to change, to STEP UP, and to build or rebuild a LEGACY OF FAITH. By choosing OBEDIENCE, CONSISTENCY, and SPIRITUAL INTENTIONALITY, families can create a lasting SPIRITUAL INHERITANCE marked by FAITH, COURAGE, REPENTANCE, and GENERATIONAL IMPACT, ensuring that the truth of God is passed down and that future generations are equipped to LIVE FOR CHRIST and GLORIFY GOD in all they do.
Bonus Episode: It's Never Too LateWelcome my friends to this special Bonus Episode of Motivational Moments with Maria.Truth be told. I wasn't planning on recording this episode.In fact, I already had the next few episodes mapped out.But something happened this week that I simply couldn't stop thinking about.And when that happens, I know there's a lesson worth sharing.Let me start with a question.Have you ever convinced yourself that you missed your chance?Maybe your chance to start the business.Maybe your chance to write the book.Maybe your chance to go back to school.Maybe your chance to find love.Maybe your chance to follow a dream you've carried in your heart for years.Have you ever thought:"If it was going to happen, it would have happened by now."My friends, today I want to challenge that thought.Because the message I keep seeing all around me this week is simple:It's Never Too Late.A Million People Needed This MessageRecently, my team and I shared a social media post about a World Cup goalkeeper from Cape Verde, VOZINYA. Now, I'm not here to talk about soccer.I'm here to talk about possibility.This athlete stood on one of the biggest stages in the world.At 40 years old.Competing against one of the most talented teams on the planet.Many athletes have already retired by that age.Many people would assume their best days are behind them.Yet there he was.Showing up.Competing.Believing.Refusing to let age determine what was possible.The message we placed on that video was simple:It's Never Too Late.And something amazing happened.Over one.one million people watched it.One.one million.And I don't think they were watching because of soccer.I think they were watching because they wanted proof.Proof that possibility still exists.Proof that dreams still matter.Proof that age doesn't get the final vote. Listen in for some insight.
What is still possible in midlife?Many of us reach our forties, fifties and sixties assuming that the major chapters of our lives have already been written. Careers are established, habits are set, and the opportunity for significant change may feel increasingly limited.Jeffrey Weiss challenges that assumption.At the age of 48, he ran his first 10-kilometre race. In the years that followed, he completed Ironman Arizona twice, finished a 72-mile ultramarathon, and embarked on a successful new chapter in his professional life that culminated in a multi-billion-dollar startup exit.In this conversation, we explore the power of healthspan, the value of audacious goals, how fitness can transform both body and mindset, and why it's never too late to embrace a new challenge.Jeffrey is the author of Racing Against Time: On Ironman, Ultramarathons, and the Quest for Transformation in Mid-Life.EnergyBits algae snacksA microscopic form of life that could help us age better.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW In this energetic and motivational conversation, Hall of Fame speaker Dr. Willie Jolley joins Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass to discuss his new book, “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better.” The interview covers the difference between being rich and being wealthy, the mindsets required for long-term financial growth, and how individuals—no matter their background—can build generational wealth. Jolley also emphasizes discipline, humility, planning, multiple streams of income, overcoming setbacks, and the importance of insurance and protection of assets. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The interview aims to: 1. Introduce and promote Dr. Jolley’s new book “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better” and the teachings within it. 2. Educate listeners on the distinction between rich and wealthy Jolley wants audiences to understand wealth in generational, not short-term, terms. 3. Motivate individuals to shift their financial mindset From “working money” to “mailbox money.” 4. Empower entrepreneurs and families To adopt discipline, drop pride, and create multigenerational financial systems. 5. Share Jolley’s personal setback‑to‑success story To reinforce that anyone can grow wealth with the right principles. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Rich vs. Wealthy Being rich = high income, often tied to active labor (e.g., athlete contracts). Being wealthy = passive income, ownership, generational sustainability. A rich football player earns millions; the team owner earns billions and doesn’t have to “run up and down the field.” 2. The Five Money Mindsets Jolley explains five financial mindsets: One‑day mindset – living day to day. 30‑day mindset – fixed incomes/check-to-check living. One‑year mindset – annual thinking (raises, annual income). Decade mindset – typical for entertainers/athletes with multi‑year contracts. Generational mindset (Wealth Mindset) – building wealth to last multiple generations. Jolley’s goal: move people up just one level at a time. 3. Five Types of Wealth Jolley breaks wealth into five categories: Financial Wealth Health Wealth (“A sick person has one dream; a healthy person has a thousand.” – Les Brown) Relationship Wealth Reputational Wealth (Brand) Intellectual Capital Wealth (What you know and can charge for) 4. Discipline Is the Key Wealth requires: Living below your means Investing the difference Consistency Avoiding arrogance and ignorance 5. Pride Is an Enemy of Wealth Pride leads people to overspend to keep up appearances.Jolley argues that pride “kills wealth” and must be replaced with planning and humility. 6. The Three Legs of Wealth To build sustainable wealth, you need: Income Investment (letting money work for you) Insurance (life, health, car, disability, long-term care) 7. Multiple Streams of Income Jolley urges everyone to build at least two streams of income from: Stocks Bonds Real estate Crypto Collectibles Jewelry Art Content creation 8. Overcoming Setbacks Jolley details his own journey from unemployed nightclub singer to globally recognized motivational speaker.He reinforces that a setback is a setup for a comeback—the core message of his earlier bestselling book. 9. It’s Never Too Late to Start He cites examples of: A secretary who retired with $8M by investing small amounts over time Invested $12,000 at age 65 and grew it to $890,000 by age 72 NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Time & Opportunity “I have only just a minute… but it’s up to me to use it.” On Mindset “Wealth starts in your mind.” On Rich vs. Wealthy “Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.” On Pride “My pride was killing my wealth.” On Growth & Learning “If you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you.” [On Setbacks “A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.” On Starting Late “When is the best time to plant a tree? Eighty years ago. The second-best time? Today.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
