Today's sermon, by Rev. Joyce Shin, was offered on Sunday, June 7, 2026. The scripture passages this morning were Genesis12:1-9 and Matthew 9:35-38. To listen to the full Lord's Day service, search YouTube for "Swarthmore Presbyterian Church."

Hochan (CJ) Jang is the co-founder of Balance Pan-Asian Grille.What began for CJ as an effort to build a healthier, more creative, and more everyday kind of Asian fast casual concept more than 16 years ago has grown into a beloved regional brand with locations across Toledo and Cleveland — one defined by scratch-made food, bold flavors, affordability, and a real commitment to hospitality.In our conversation, CJ and I explore his journey from growing up in his mother's restaurant after immigrating from South Korea, to discovering the potential of fast casual, to building Balance with little more than conviction, credit cards, and a willingness to learn everything the hard way. We talk about how the business found its footing, why location and customer feedback were so pivotal early on, how he thinks about quality, pricing, and menu innovation today, and what it takes to scale a restaurant brand without losing the culture and standards that made it special in the first place. I very much enjoyed this conversation, and I think you'll hear in CJ both a deep humility and a real love for the craft — I hope you enjoy it as well.00:00 Introduction & Entrepreneurial Roots00:26 Welcome & Background03:00 Early Relationship with Food06:19 From Food to Entrepreneurship12:09 Inspiration from Fast Casual Concepts13:36 Challenges of Ethnic Fast Casual16:20 Launching Balance Pan Asian Grill19:40 Opening the First Location22:58 Importance of Location & Customer Feedback27:53 Balance's Identity & Values31:07 Navigating Pricing & Affordability35:41 Scaling & Building Culture40:11 Vision for the Future44:57 Hard-Earned Lessons49:02 The Role of Upbringing & Community51:47 Closing & Hidden Gem in Cleveland-----LINKS:https://www.linkedin.com/in/hochan-j-88513510a/https://www.linkedin.com/posts/balancegrille_2-first-generation-entrepreneurs-are-redefining-activity-7351709996880998400-LM0l/https://balancegrille.com/the-balance-grille-leadership-advantage/https://balancegrille.com/story/-----SPONSOR:Cerity PartnersCerity Partners, a full-service investment and wealth management firm serving high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs, and business owners, is proud to sponsor Lay of The Land.

What happens when you've done all the right things, built the life you were supposed to build, and something inside you still won't settle?  This episode is for the physician whose inner self feels restless.  You'll hear Ni-Cheng share the raw truth of being diagnosed with breast cancer at 31 and what her body was trying to tell her. Jessie tells the story of the day she handed in her resignation and felt sick instead of relieved.  You'll meet the concept of expansion anxiety — the feeling that you've lost your mind when really you're just growing — and the idea of jumping into cold water with a life preserver.  You'll leave with permission to stop using struggle as proof of your strength and to let the easy parts be easy. "There are no shortcuts to a big life. There are many shortcuts to a life that looks big on the outside, but is killing you on the inside." - A line, from Enia Oakes' 108 Notes from a Studio in Oakland, is the heart of this episode.   Pearls of Wisdom If you don't choose who you're becoming, circumstances choose for you. Not choosing is still a choice. Jump but with a life preserver. When you feel untethered, it often means you're growing. Let the easy parts be easy. The person you become will catch you when you fall — if you've taken good care of her. Reflection Questions If you were building your life on purpose starting today, what would stay and what would go? Where are you taking shortcuts to a life that looks big but doesn't feel like yours? What life preservers do you already have, and what do you still need before we jump? Closing Invitation If you are in a season where your old life isn't quite fitting and the new one hasn't yet taken shape, you are not lost — you are in the liminal space where real change happens.  I'd love to support you there through coaching, a retreat, or a free live-stream mindful yoga class. 1:1 Coaching: www.jessiemahoneymd.com CME Wellness Retreats: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats Free Live-Stream Mindful Yoga: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/yoga The PAUSE (my blog): www.jessiemahoneymd.com/jessies-blog Listen to other episodes of the Healing Medicine Podcast page: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/mindful-healers-podcast Referenced in this episode: Episode 261 with Enya Oakes on 108 Notes from a Studio in Oakland Jessie's TEDx Talk: What Would Love Do?

Bienvenidos a FailAgain, una newsletter / podcast sobre crear contenido y estrategia.Acabo de rehacer todo el branding visual de failagain en una tarde, sin diseñador, usando solo el nuevo modelo de imágenes de ChatGPT. Y el resultado me gusta más que cualquier intento anterior con plantillas o con Canva.Te recomiendo que escuches la versión extendida en formato pódcast de este contenido.El nuevo modelo de generación de imágenes de ChatGPT es un antes y un después.Ya sé que esa frase está hecha polvo de tanto usarla con cualquier herramienta nueva, pero esta vez es diferente. No es que genere imágenes más bonitas. Es que ha subido un escalón de comprensión que los modelos anteriores no tenían.Donde antes pedías una imagen y te daba un elemento principal decente con todo lo demás a medias, ahora te genera composiciones enteras con muchos elementos distintos, todos bien resueltos, con texto legible, con maquetación coherente, con jerarquía visual.Puede generarte una infografía con párrafos enteros bien escritos. Puede generarte un brand book completo en una sola imagen.Y eso para nosotros, los creadores, es una baza tremenda.Por qué me puse a rehacer mi brandingLlevaba meses con cosas que no me convencían de la marca de FailAgain.La estética pixel que tenía desde hace tiempo había caído en desuso. Estuvo muy potente hace dos o tres años, ahora la veo bastante pasada. Algunos iconos que usaba tenían un aspecto un poco infantil que no terminaba de encajar con el carácter más serio que va tomando el contenido. Estaba intentando dejar de usarlos, pero no tenía nada con lo que sustituirlos.Necesitaba algo más alineado con el proyecto tal como está ahora. Más adulto, más con criterio, menos “tutorial divertido”.Vi por Twitter a un creador japonés que había rehecho un brand book entero con el nuevo modelo de ChatGPT. Resultados muy potentes. Solo con prompts.Me remangué y dije: vamos a probarlo con FailAgain a ver hasta dónde llego.El proceso tiene tres pasos. Y el primero no es generar nadaAntes de tocar la herramienta tienes que hacer un trabajo previo que la mayoría de gente se salta. Y por saltárselo, los resultados luego son muy pochos.Tienes que tener claras tres cosas:Qué NO te gusta de tu marca actual. En mi caso: la estética pixel, los iconos infantiles, ciertas inconsistencias entre el branding general y mis miniaturas de YouTube.Qué SÍ quieres mantener. En mi caso: la paleta de colores (verde lima, negro, off-white) y el concepto de iteración, de fallar y volver a intentar, que es el ADN de FailAgain.Qué referencias visuales te gustan. No de tu sector, no de creadores. De diseño puro. Yo llevo tiempo guardando imágenes de un estilo que se llama neo-retro industrial y de estética VHS. Las saqué de mi carpeta de referencias y las usé.Si saltas este paso y vas directo a pedirle cosas a la IA, vas a obtener algo decente pero genérico. O peor: no vas a poder evaluar si el resultado es bueno o malo, porque no tienes con qué compararlo.Este paso es el que separa un resultado mediocre de uno que te convence a dar el cambio.Paso 2: el prompt maestroCuando ya tienes referencias y criterios claros, vas al modelo y le pides un prompt que no genere solo un logo, sino una composición completa de marca.Esto es lo que cambia respecto a procesos anteriores. No le pides “un logo bonito”. Le pides:* El logotipo principal y sus variantes* El monograma o sello secundario* La paleta de colores con códigos hex* Las tipografías recomendadas* Posibles aplicaciones (cabeceras, miniaturas, tarjetas)* Texturas y elementos gráficos del sistema* Frases manifiesto cortas* Metadatos visuales (números de versión, referencias de archivo, símbolos)El prompt es largo. Tremendo. Es de los que cuando los ves dices “esto me lo guardo”. Y esa es exactamente la idea: lo guardas y lo reutilizas cambiando los parámetros que se adaptan a tu proyecto.Lo que me sorprendió no fue que generara algo bonito. Es que entendió el concepto que le estaba transmitiendo. Entendió que FailAgain va de iteración, de criterio, de probar. Y eso lo tradujo a decisiones visuales que yo no le había pedido explícitamente: un motivo recurrente de loop, copys tipo “NO SHORTCUTS. ONLY ITERATIONS.”, referencias a archivo y versiones.Esto antes no pasaba.Paso 3: extraer y aplicarAquí está la parte no tan sexy. Por muy buena que sea la imagen que te genere, sigue siendo un PNG. No es un logo vectorial. No es un sistema editable. Es una imagen.Para sacarle partido necesitas otra herramienta que te permita extraer los elementos. Yo lo hice con Canva, que tiene una opción nueva de separar capas que detecta los textos, los logotipos y los elementos gráficos y te los convierte en editables. A partir de ahí puedes vectorizar el logo, cambiar textos, sustituir tipografías por las disponibles en Canva, y construir tus aplicaciones reales.Pero el otro punto clave, y este es el que de verdad cambia las reglas: una vez que tienes ese primer panel maestro, puedes pedirle a ChatGPT que genere nuevas piezas siguiendo ese mismo sistema visual.* Necesito una miniatura para mi próximo vídeo de YouTube con un titular concreto y mi cara: aplica el sistema.* Necesito una tarjeta para los miembros de Factoría Creativa: aplica el sistema. * Necesito una versión vertical para reels: aplica el sistema.Y todo sale conectado. Todo sale dentro del mismo lenguaje.Esto antes solo lo conseguía con un diseñador.Lo que esto significa para los que no sabemos diseñarNo es un resultado de estudio profesional, voy a repetirlo. Un buen diseñador con tiempo y criterio te va a hacer un trabajo más fino. Si tienes presupuesto y la marca es seria, paga a un diseñador.Pero para los que estamos solos sacando un proyecto adelante, esto es un complemento brutal. Te da:* Coherencia visual entre piezas que antes iban por su lado* Velocidad de producción semanal* Un sistema escalable que crece contigoYo tengo ahora un branding nuevo que me representa mejor, y lo más importante, un flujo para producir todas las piezas semanales sin tener que pelearme con cada una desde cero.¿Y tú? ¿Cuándo fue la última vez que actualizaste tu branding o si tienes alguno con el que te sientas cómodo? Responde y cuéntame.Un abrazoteP.D. He preparado una guía completa con los tres prompts maestros que he usado, el flujo paso a paso, y plantillas listas para que puedas hacer lo mismo con tu marca. La he subido a Factoría Creativa para los miembros de la comunidad. Si quieres tenerla, esta semana es buen momento para entrar.P.D.2. Si lo pruebas con tu propia marca, ya seas miembro de Factoría o no, mándame el resultado por correo o en comentarios. Me da mucha curiosidad ver qué sale en otros sectores. This is a public episode.

“My family has deep roots in barbecue cooking, and I am proud of that tradition.

#401 In this episode, Guy talked with Julian Polzin, a former psychotherapist turned spiritual teacher, and shared his profound awakening experience that began while grieving on a graveyard bench in Germany, leading to a complete dissolution of ego and entry into samadhi.  Through deep meditation practices, he began remembering hundreds of past lives as a Buddhist monk and yogi, receiving downloads of ancient yogic systems and experiencing visions of Atlantis and its fall due to spiritual corruption and transhumanist technology. He explained how dark entities on the astral plane compete for human souls by offering temptations that disconnect people from divine will, and how the Buddhist system was designed to counteract the Atlantean karma of the hyperactive intellect separated from God. Julian warned that humanity is repeating the Atlantean pattern with AI, transhumanism, and recent technological interventions that disconnect individuals from divine current, leading to a timeline split between those who surrender to God and those who fall into ego gratification. Now based in Peru's Sacred Valley, he works to build a monastery and teaches proper spiritual discernment, emphasizing that true liberation requires total surrender, renunciation of worldly attachments, and the guidance of a genuine teacher assigned by divine will. About Julian: Julian practices and teaches Zen-Buddhist methods in combination with the Yogic realization process and various other mystical practices. On his spiritual path he opened himself to mystical insight. He experienced realization beyond physical experience which changed his therapeutic approach.  In 2021 he traveled to Nepal to meditate in holy places to experience the land, ancient energies and intelligences of a non-material nature. He practiced psychotherapy in Germany for seven years, but moved on from the method after experiencing the limitations of the psychotherapeutic framework.  Now he focusses on sharing spiritual teachings of direct inquiry to assist his clients in realizing themselves through the mystical experience.

From immigrating to the U.S. at 14 without speaking English to navigating failure, sacrifice, and growth, Andrea shares the lessons no one talks about. Raw, honest, and grounded in real experience—not overnight success myths.

In this episode, I sit down with singer-songwriter CJ Hooper to talk about building songs—and confidence—as an independent artist without rushing the process. We dig into how moving from Texas to Washington shaped his musical perspective, and why honest, story-driven country music seems to resonate no matter where you live.CJ and I talk about releasing Over Yonder, his second album just a year after his debut, and the surprisingly self-confronting experience of hearing your own voice back in the studio. We also get into early cassette-tape influences, playing in a band with musicians decades older than him, cutting his teeth at open mics, and slowly figuring out how his original songs want to live in the world. It's a conversation about patience, craft, and letting the work grow naturally—one song at a time.Music from the Episode:Burn it Down (CJ Hooper)Lookie Over Yonder (CJ Hooper)Rain Song (CJ Hooper)Thank you for listening.

On this episode of Truth From The Stand, I'm sitting down with Joe Miles, and we're digging into the kind of hunting that doesn't get easier with better gear—cold sits, traditional bows, and the work it takes to stay honest in the woods. We talk longbows, confidence at the shot, and why preparation matters more when you strip things back instead of piling them on. Joe shares what drew him deeper into traditional archery, how projects like Brothers of the Bow shaped his perspective, and why legacy and authenticity still matter in modern hunting. We also get into the reality of public versus private ground, work ethic in the field, and even what it's like stepping into truly dangerous game—where mistakes don't get forgiven. This one's about doing things the hard way on purpose, and what you gain when you do. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 478 Cold weather exposes preparation gaps fast—wind, not temperature, is usually the real enemy. Traditional archery rewards discipline; expensive gear means nothing without consistent practice. Confidence at the shot matters more than equipment, especially when buck fever hits. Events like Winter Strong create learning through shared scenarios, not shortcuts. The appeal of longbows and recurves is growing because they reintroduce challenge and intention. Authentic hunting culture values grit, work ethic, and legacy over brand-driven influence. The best hunting stories—and growth—come from friction points, not easy paths.

If you had to launch a podcast in 2026 with zero audience, zero momentum, and no shortcuts, you wouldn't start with fancy gear or “clever” branding. You'd start with being found.In this solo episode of As It Relates to Podcasting, Simona Costantini breaks down exactly how she'd launch from scratch today, using what actually works now: search-first episode design, a trailer plus a 3-episode drop, content buckets that help platforms categorize you, and a distribution workflow built before you ever hit publish.You'll learn how to write titles that match what people are already searching, how to craft a keyword-rich show description that makes it instantly clear who the show is for (and why they should care), and how to build an ecosystem where every episode becomes YouTube content, clips, email, and a repeatable publishing checklist.The goal is simple, and it's the whole thesis of this episode: growth stops feeling like a grind when your podcast is designed to be discovered.Inside this episode:Why launching in 2026 starts with search, not gear, branding, or hypeHow to design episodes for discovery before you recordWhy “clever” show names can confuse both audiences and algorithmsWhat to include in a keyword-rich podcast description (and how to answer “why should they care?”)The 3 content buckets strategy that helps platforms categorize your show fasterWhy one-off, random-topic episodes can stall growth (algorithm confusion is real)How to title episodes based on what the conversation actually became (not what you planned)Launching with intent: trailer timing + dropping 3 episodes at once for binge behavior and retentionThe 3 biggest audience questions approach (and why they should be your first three episodes)Why your “Episode 0” should be a solo episode that builds trust and connectionTitles that perform in 2026: question-based and outcome-driven, written like Google searchWhy to submit to Apple + Spotify early (indexing matters)How to build distribution into your workflow (YouTube, clips, blog, email, guest sharing)The simple, repeatable publishing checklist that prevents burnoutThe core launch truth: podcasts aren't built on trends or luck, they're built on clarityResources:

In this episode of the P3 Project for Diverse Entrepreneurs, host Shelton A. Russell speaks with Anup Tamrakar, founder and CEO of Urban Infraconstruction, and the cover story subject of the latest issue of American DBE Magazine. Anup Tamrakar's story reflects the modern immigrant entrepreneur journey in America's infrastructure and construction economy. Born and raised in Kathmandu, Nepal, Anup came to the United States at just 18 years old to pursue education, opportunity, and long-term growth. He began his career working for contractors in Texas before eventually founding Urban Infraconstruction, a firm focused on delivering high-quality work in complex infrastructure environments. Throughout the conversation, Anup shares how a simple lesson from his father, work hard, stay busy, and never look for shortcuts, became the cornerstone of his leadership philosophy. In an industry where reputation, performance, and trust determine success, Anup explains why discipline, consistency, and effort remain non-negotiable for entrepreneurs building companies that last. This episode explores: The immigrant entrepreneur's experience in U.S. infrastructure and construction How Anup Tamrakar built Urban Infraconstruction through credibility and performance Leadership lessons for founders operating in competitive, compliance-driven industries Why work ethic still outperforms hype, shortcuts, and trends Building company culture, trust, and long-term value in construction and engineering Listeners interested in construction entrepreneurship, infrastructure leadership, DBE firms, immigrant-led businesses, and public-private project delivery will find valuable insights throughout this discussion. Anup also reflects on the personal responsibility of leadership, the importance of mentorship, and the mindset required to scale a business while maintaining integrity.

Jannik Hansen joins the show to explain why, no matter the opponent, the best player on the ice seems to be wearing the other jersey. The guys dig into Brock Boeser's slump and why he needs a true play-driving center to thrive as a complementary scorer.

In this episode of the Truth From The Stand podcast, I'm joined by traditional bowhunter Chris Parrino—a guy who's lived a hunting life most of us only dream about. We dig into the roots of his passion, from growing up in a blue-collar family to chasing grizzlies, moose, and polar bears with a stickbow. Chris opens up about what it really takes to hunt at a high level with traditional gear—the failures, the close calls, and the quiet discipline behind decades of consistent success. We talk about the changing face of bowhunting, the importance of humility, and why doing it the hard way still matters. If you're into wild places, serious challenges, and learning from a guy who's been there and done it the right way, this is one you won't want to miss. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 446 How a blue-collar upbringing shaped his bowhunting path. Building his own bows and sticking with traditional gear. Grizzly, moose, and polar bear hunts  - raw adventure. Chris explains why hunting stays a passion, not a profession. Technology has changed hunting—for better or worse. Solo hunts and failure taught him grit, patience, and perspective. His biggest hunts highlight the value of preparation and humility.

EP. 212: Today I'm joined by Dr. Spencer Nadolsky, obesity specialist, Lipidologist, and founder of Vineyard, a cutting-edge direct care platform. We're diving deep into the conversation you've been asking for: the real story behind GLP-1s, obesity as a chronic disease, and why treating it goes far beyond weight loss. We break down everything from proper dosing, common side effects, and the dangers of vanity prescribing to the systemic issues with telemedicine and PBMs. Dr. Nadolsky and I also discuss strength training, preserving muscle mass, and how GLP-1s may support metabolic and cardiovascular health beyond their FDA indications. This episode cuts through the noise and misinformation. If you care about metabolic health, this one's essential. Topics Discussed:  What are the real benefits of GLP-1 medications beyond weight loss? Is obesity truly a chronic disease, and how should it be treated? What are the risks of GLP-1 vanity dosing and fast titration? How do GLP-1s impact muscle mass and metabolic health? Why are telemedicine and PBMs problematic for obesity treatment?
