Melinda Maria Spigel is the founder and Chief Creative Officer of Melinda Maria Jewelry, a leading e-commerce jewelry brand. From a young age, Melinda was drawn to creativity and jewelry, spending hours sketching and experimenting with designs. What began as a childhood passion quickly evolved into something bigger when, at 23, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue her dreams. She started selling her handmade pieces out of a Starbucks, sometimes making $1,000 a day, until her bold, statement designs began catching the eyes of stylists and celebrities.

Melinda's story is a masterclass in resilience, resourcefulness, and creativity, and a reminder that true success isn't about a perfect path but about showing up with courage, again and again.In this episode, we'll talk to Melinda about:* Why authenticity is the foundation of brand-building.

What if God's plan to reach your neighborhood, your workplace, your city… is you? In Luke 10, Jesus sends out ordinary people with an extraordinary mission—to go ahead of Him and prepare the way. No titles. No platforms. Just faith, authority, and obedience. This is a wake-up call: you and I aren't on the sidelines of God's story—we are the strategy. There is no Plan B. Heaven is still sending, and the harvest is still ready. The work is gritty, the world is hostile, and still, we go—not relying on our strength, but on His Spirit. Along the way, we learn to recognize the people of peace, to shake the dust when needed, and to rejoice—not in what we do for Jesus, but in who we are because of Him.

It's Monday morning. The sun isn't up yet. Coffee's barely hot. But there I am, watching tape of Minnesota and texting my broadcast partners.That became a weekly ritual last season.Why? Because Greg Harbaugh Jr's offense caught my eye. Every red zone call. Every third down plan. Every subtle shift in the run game—it all felt intentional.

And in this episode of Y-Option, presented by our founding sponsor 76, Greg Harbaugh Jr dives into it all.How he builds his offense, how he develops quarterbacks, how he's chasing a dream and how he's helping P.J. Fleck and Minnesota become one of the most situationally sharp teams in the Big Ten.Here's what stood out:

In this powerful message, we look at Paul's first recorded sermon in Acts 13, where he boldly proclaims that Jesus is not a backup plan—He is and always has been the central figure in God's redemptive story. Paul connects the dots of Israel's history to show that Jesus is:God's Promise Through the Ages – Fulfilling centuries of prophecy and covenant.Our Victory Through His Sacrifice – Turning what looked like defeat on the cross into the ultimate triumph over sin and death.Our Invitation Into God's Story – Offering forgiveness, freedom, and a new identity to anyone who believes.This message reminds us that our lives aren't random or aimless—we are part of a bigger narrative written by God Himself. Jesus has always been Plan A. The question is: are we living in His story, or trying to write our own?

This one hit home! Andy Elliott didn't just change his life… He helped change mine. In today's episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I sit down with one of the most intense and inspiring sales leaders I know.

Tyler Schaffner grew up around horses and cattle in South Dakota. He realized quickly that school and the trades weren't for him so he decided to come to Texas to be more involved with cattle and horses.

He's been heavily involved in the roping cattle industry and the horse industry and more recently in the yearling business.
