RenMac breaks down how the Iran conflict and rising oil prices are colliding with an already softening labor market and late-cycle market dynamics. The team discusses the “Hamilton Trigger” for energy, February's weak jobs report, why the Fed may struggle to cut rates amid supply shocks, and how inflation pressures are shifting the RenMac Market Cycle Clock. The team also explore cracks forming in credit, the vulnerability of crowded momentum trades in tech, housing gridlock as mortgage rates rise, and the political backdrop heading into the midterms.

This week's episode wasn't planned.After last week's conversation about peace, I found myself in a place where the very practices I shared felt hard — almost unreachable. Instead of recording Part 5 of our series, I decided to speak from where I actually am right now: grieving, processing, and learning to rest.It's been nearly five months since my dad passed away, and the grief is still tender. A simple visit to the local VA to donate his glasses brought a fresh wave of emotion. Add to that shifting dynamics in a meaningful friendship, ministry rebranding decisions, upcoming speaking engagements, and the general heaviness many of us feel culturally — and it's been a layered season.In this honest, unscripted episode, I share:• Why spiritual and mindset practices aren't magic formulas• What it feels like when “doing the right things” doesn't immediately bring peace• The difference between sacred thinking and performance-based striving• How grief can coexist with faith• Why sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is restWe talk about renewing the mind, taking thoughts captive, and partnering with God in transformation — but also about giving yourself grace when you're simply sad.If you're walking through:– grief– relational changes– caregiving– a strained marriage– parenting challenges– confusion about your next step– or simple battle-wearinessThis episode is for you.Sometimes we don't need another method. We need Presence.I close with a prayer for the weary — that you would sense God near, be released from striving, and remember that you are seen, loved, and not alone.Next week, we'll finish the series with “Tending Joy.”Until then — if all else fails, stand.Join the INSIDERS' SECRETS group for behind-the-scenes takeaways with Victoria as she writes the new Sacred Thinking devotional.

Unser heutiger Gast ist einer der bekanntesten Medienmacher Deutschlands. Er war Chefredakteur der GQ, hat über viele Jahre Stil, Haltung und Zeitgeist kuratiert. Er war nah dran an den großen Namen aus Wirtschaft, Sport, Kultur und Entertainment. Er hat erlebt, wie schnell Öffentlichkeit kommt und geht. Er hat zugehört und Geschichten entdeckt und aufgeschrieben, er hat Trends bewertet, Menschen auf Titel gehoben und sich dabei immer stärker für das interessiert, was hinter der Fassade liegt. Nicht nur: Wer ist gerade erfolgreich? Sondern: Was trägt wirklich? Mit seinem Podcast Tomorrow spricht er seit Jahren mit Persönlichkeiten, die auf Bühnen stehen, Unternehmen führen, Weltmeisterschaften gewinnen oder kulturelle Debatten prägen. Für sein aktuelles Buch “Der Code zum Erfolg” hat er diese Gespräche noch einmal neu betrachtet, Muster herausgearbeitet, Querverbindungen gezogen und 115 Erfolgsgeschichten systematisch ausgewertet. Seit mehr als acht Jahren beschäftigen wir uns in diesem Podcast mit der Frage, wie Arbeit den Menschen stärkt, statt ihn zu schwächen. Wir haben in über 500 Episoden mit fast 700 Persönlichkeiten darüber gesprochen, was sich bereits verändert hat und was sich weiter ändern muss. Was trägt die Identität eines Menschen, wenn berufliche Rolle und Titel wegfallen? Welche Beziehungen in Netzwerken sind belastbar und welche bestehen vor allem durch Funktion? Wie gelingt es, Erfolg nicht als erreichten Zustand zu verstehen, sondern als kontinuierliche Praxis und Haltung im Alltag? Fest steht: Für die Lösung unserer aktuellen Herausforderungen brauchen wir neue Impulse. Wir suchen weiter nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Erfahrungen, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näher bringen. Darüber hinaus beschäftigt uns von Anfang an die Frage, ob wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben können, was sie im Innersten wirklich wirklich wollen. Ihr seid bei On the Way to New Work – heute in einer Kollaborationsfolge mit Zoomer meets Boomer und meinem Co-Host Oskar Trautmann und unserem Gast Tom Junkersdorf.

Is it possible that our greatest barrier to understanding Jesus is actually our own "religious" expectations? This week, we explore why Jesus is the only one who can truly introduce us to the Father. In this episode of Off Script, Neil and Scott dive into the profound prologue of the Gospel of John. Scott explains the "why" behind choosing this heavy theological text and discusses the concept of Jesus as the Logos. They tackle the tension between law and grace, the difference between "getting" the Bible and actually knowing God, and why seeing Jesus is the only way we can truly understand the character of a Father we've never seen. The Reset Challenge Commit to changing your algorithm. Replace your usual political or cultural podcasts with faithful Bible teaching from trusted sources, spend time reading the Book of John, and set a scripture wallpaper on your phone to remind you whose voice matters most.  Hosts: Neil Gregory and Scott Nickell What We Discuss The intentionality behind preaching the prologue of John and its "Mount Everest" theological status. Understanding the Logos Why "Grace upon Grace" isn't just a catchy phrase, but a description of God's literal, overflowing kindness. The tension between the Law given through Moses and the Grace and Truth that came through Jesus. The danger of knowing the "Book" (The Bible) without actually knowing the "Word" (Jesus). How Jesus "tabernacled" or pitched His tent among us to move into our neighborhood. The power of the "One More" mission as Southland celebrates baptisms across multiple campuses. About Southland Christian Church Southland is one church meeting in multiple locations across central Kentucky. We believe Jesus came for the lost and the broken, which means there's a place for everyone here. Around here, that means we worship defiantly, speak truth unashamedly, and extend grace generously.

RenMac breaks down why light tax refunds and narrow consumption growth are challenging the bullish economic narrative, even as AI capex continues to carry investment. The team explores falling Treasury yields despite “good” data, extreme tech momentum reminiscent of 2000, and cracks forming beneath the surface in software and breadth. They also cover late-cycle sector rotation into energy and defensives, housing and AI power politics in Washington, and what next week's ISM, jobs, and retail sales could mean for growth expectations and market leadership.

Whose voice are you actually listening to, and is it possible your phone's algorithm has become your primary spiritual guide?  This week on Off Script, Neil and Scott dive into why the noise of the world is making us angry and how to intentionally tune back into the frequency of the Good Shepherd. The heart of the conversation, however, is a challenge to "reshape your algorithm." Scott discusses the limits of human capacity for information and the danger of "doomscrolling," offering a practical four-week plan to replace outrage-driven media with faithful Bible preaching and scripture.  The Challenge For the next four weeks, commit to changing your algorithm. Replace your usual political or cultural podcasts with faithful Bible teaching from trusted sources, spend time reading the Book of John, and set a scripture wallpaper on your phone to remind you whose voice matters most.  Hosts: Neil Gregory and Scott Nickell What We Discuss The story behind the cease and desist from a nun that forced a name change  Southland's theological stance on women teaching from the stage  The distinction between "ongoing authoritative teaching" and individual snapshots of teaching  Why the "Good Shepherd" metaphor was so counter-cultural in Jesus's day  The biological and emotional limits of human capacity for knowing people and news  How social media creates a "vast illusion" of connection  The "Reshape Your Algorithm" challenge for the next four weeks  Identifying "toxic" cultural commentators and the trap of outrage-driven media  The importance of reading the Bible in context rather than "point-and-flip" methods  Why it is vital to stay in community while processing God's Word  About Southland Christian Church Southland is one church meeting in multiple locations across central Kentucky.

Pharmaceutical packaging is undergoing rapid transformation as connectivity, sustainability, automation, and evolving regulatory demands reshape how medicines are protected, tracked, and delivered. From smart packaging features and prefilled injectables to e-commerce fulfillment and digital compliance systems, packaging and equipment investment decisions are increasingly tied to flexibility, data visibility, and long-term modernization. In this episode of Off Script, we spoke with Rebecca Marquez, director of custom research at PMMI, about the association's latest Trends and Challenges in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing white paper. The conversation explores how connected packaging technologies are strengthening relationships between manufacturers, regulators, and patients; why sustainability initiatives are advancing despite material performance and validation challenges; and how growth in biologics and prefilled injectables is driving new packaging and equipment demands. Marquez also breaks down the regulatory documentation gap between OEMs and end users, the rise of automation technologies, and more.

When life doesn't go the way you planned, it can feel like the bottom drops out — the relationship you counted on, the job you thought would last, the dream you assumed was yours. This week we stepped into the opening chapter of Joseph's story in Genesis 37 — a 17-year-old with big dreams whose life unravels in a moment. Betrayal. A pit. A caravan headed toward Egypt. And through all of it, God's name isn't mentioned once. If you've ever said, “This is not how my life was supposed to go,” Joseph has been there. And yet his story becomes a doorway into how God works in the very places we can't see Him yet. Watch the message and let it meet whatever part of your life feels off script right now.

RenMac breaks down a market that's still trending higher but losing momentum, as 2-year yields flirt with cycle lows and leadership rotates between cyclicals and defensives. The team discusses why GDP and inflation prints are being distorted by the shutdown, why slowing wage growth could become the real 2026 risk, and what Trump's State of the Union, tariffs, and Iran could mean for energy markets. They also tackle whether high yield credit is the canary in the coal mine—and why private equity and private credit may be the bigger vulnerability.

Is it possible to be so close to the Bible that you actually miss the heart of Jesus?  In this episode of Off Script, Neil sits down with Lydia Florence and Connor Hall to discuss a sermon on the healing of the blind man. Connor shares his "method" approach to sermon prep, practicing in total darkness, and dives into the research he did on different types of blindness. The team examines "Cracker Barrel Christianity," the danger of spiritual pride among those who study Scripture deeply, and why we often try to make Jesus more like us instead of becoming more like Him.  The Challenge Identify one "southern saying" or cultural idea about God you've relied on more than actual Scripture.  Hosts: Neil Gregory, Connor Hall, and Lydia Florence.  What We Discuss Connor's "method" sermon prep: practicing in the dark to better understand the blind man's perspective.  The decision to preach without notes, images, or props to keep the focus entirely on the Word.  Why a full page of "marshmallow fluff" was cut from the final sermon.  Fascinating research on blindness, including how those born blind dream differently than those who lost their sight.  "Cracker Barrel Christianity": Why southern sayings like "God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers" aren't actually in the Bible.  The "Bless This Mess" mentality, why we want Jesus to bless our chaos rather than transform it.  The danger of spiritual elitism and "holy huddles" where we study the Bible but never reach the lost.  Why teachers will be judged more strictly and the weight of living out what you preach. Addressing the tendency to try to make Jesus "cool" or popular so that we can feel accepted by culture.  The truth about the Christian life: it will rarely be easy, but it will always be worth it.  About Southland Christian Church Southland is one church meeting in multiple locations across central Kentucky.

As biologics grow more complex, cell line development remains a key driver of speed, yield, and manufacturability. What was once a technical milestone is now a competitive differentiator, directly impacting time to Investigational New Drug (IND), cost of goods, and long-term scalability. In this episode of Off Script, we spoke with Brett Verstak, director of cell line development at Abzena, to discuss how advanced Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-based platforms, glutamine synthetase (GS) knockout systems, automation, and AI-driven workflows are accelerating clone selection and reducing downstream risk. The conversation explores persistent bottlenecks in hard-to-express proteins, the value of integrated upstream development models, and how smarter platform design is helping drug developers move complex biologics to the clinic faster.

RenMac unpacks cooler inflation that keeps Fed cuts in play just as rising job anxiety and narrow hiring trends point to softer labor conditions beneath the surface. The team debates the growing AI vs. non-AI market bifurcation, fragile tech momentum, tight credit spreads versus private credit stress, tariff maneuvering around chips and Taiwan, and what housing, manufacturing, and D.C. drama signal for markets ahead.

As cell and gene therapies continue to deliver promising clinical results, manufacturing remains one of the biggest barriers to broader commercialization. Persistent challenges around cost, complexity, labor intensity, and vein-to-vein timelines—particularly for autologous CAR-T therapies—are limiting the industry's ability to scale beyond niche and last-line indications. Addressing these constraints will be critical if CGTs are to move earlier in treatment paradigms and reach more patients globally. In this episode of Off Script, we spoke with Jon Ellis, CEO of Trenchant BioSystems, about the current state of cell and gene therapy manufacturing and where the industry must go next. The conversation explores why traditional centralized manufacturing models are struggling to scale, how automation and digital batch records can significantly compress manufacturing timelines, and how emerging platforms are rethinking cell recovery, analytics integration, and starting material strategies.

There's a moment every coach knows. You're mid-session. Your client says something unexpected. The conversation shifts — emotionally, directionally, energetically. And suddenly, you feel it: I don't know what to do next. In this episode, I'm talking about why that moment isn't a coaching failure — and why, in many cases, it's actually a sign that you're doing real, meaningful work. We're unpacking the fear that lives underneath “not knowing,” why so many coaches panic when sessions don't go as planned, and how much of that anxiety comes from holding an unspoken agenda about where the session should go. I also explore the difference between agenda-driven, outcome-focused coaching and curiosity-driven, co-active coaching — and why letting go of the need to steer your client toward a specific insight, solution, or action often creates far more powerful results. This is a conversation about trust. Trusting the process. Trusting your client. And trusting yourself as a coach — even (and especially) when you don't have the answers. If you've ever left a session second-guessing yourself, wondering if you handled it “right,” or thinking you need more training just to feel confident in the room — this episode is for you.

The technologies are playing an increasingly central role in pharmaceutical manufacturing as companies contend with labor constraints, rising demand, and the need to modernize highly regulated operations.  In this episode of Off Script, we spoke with Alexander Shikany, executive vice president of the Association for Advancing Automation (A3), about how robotics adoption is reshaping pharma manufacturing today. The conversation explores why automation is now considered a core manufacturing strategy, where demand is emerging across the production lifecycle, how collaborative robots are gaining traction in regulated environments, and why human-in-the-loop automation remains essential for quality, compliance, and operational resilience.

RenMac unpacks the market fallout from Kevin Warsh emerging as the leading Fed chair candidate, the risks building in parabolic trades like gold and crypto and why sentiment extremes and “hair-trigger” psychology make these trades vulnerable to sharp reversals. The team also breaks down “momentum tech” and sector rotation risks, rising trade and shutdown risks, China-Taiwan tensions and why February seasonality could amplify market crosscurrents.

As biopharma pipelines grow more complex, manufacturers are under increasing pressure to scale faster, adapt to new modalities, and build resilience into highly regulated operations. Meeting these demands means manufacturing agility is no longer just a competitive advantage, it's a necessity. Yet, structural constraints, talent shortages, and legacy processes continue to impact progress across the industry. In this episode of Off Script, we spoke with Iwan Roberts, vice president of technology and innovation strategy at Cytiva, for a deep dive into Cytiva's latest Global Biopharma Index. The conversation explores why manufacturing agility remains a major industry pain point, why modalities like cell and gene therapy and mRNA are uniquely difficult to scale, and how CDMOs, digitalization, and new supplier relationships are reshaping the path forward.  

Grief doesn't only come from loss we can name or explain. Sometimes it comes from shattered expectations—especially when someone we love chooses a path different from the one we imagined for them.In this episode, life coach Lindsey Shumway joins me to share a powerful and compassionate grief protocol she has taught to many of her clients—and recently used herself as her daughter took a direction Lindsay didn't expect.Lindsey opens up about her own experience with honesty and tenderness, then walks us through a simple but deeply meaningful 4-step process designed to help us move through grief rather than get stuck inside it. This protocol honors both love and disappointment, allowing space for pain without letting it define the relationship—or us.If you're grieving what could have been, what you hoped for, or what didn't turn out the way you planned, this conversation may offer exactly the support you've been looking for.Lindsey's books: I Chose You, 101 Creative Dates for Latter-day Saints, Teeny Tiny Talks, What Baptism Means to Me are available at www.cedarfort.comThe FREE Heart-Centered Breathing Meditation: https://meditation.hello-bliss.comThe Emotional Guidance Scale:  https://thejoywithin.org/authors/abraham-hicks/moving-up-the-emotional-guidance-scaleConnect with Lindsey at: www.hello-bliss.com, @helloblisslifecoachingConnect with Shiree at ⁠shireebest.com⁠ Join the⁠ "Just Love Them" Facebook group⁠Email Shiree at imlivinginjoy@gmail.com

"When Life Goes Off Script" - Daniel Self - 1.25.2026 by Orchard Audio Ministry

RenMac digs into the growing political stakes around the Fed chair decision, why global yields—especially in Japan—are reshaping risk appetite, and how improving breadth, regional banks, and small caps point to healthier market internals. The team also breaks down Davos takeaways on trade, rare earths, and China strategy, why good news for the economy doesn't always translate into good news for the markets, and what to watch next as yields, seasonality, and leadership trends evolve.

In this episode of Off Script, we continue our conversation with David Grote, vice president of strategy at GrayMatter Partners, focusing on the execution challenges that will define the success of today's pharmaceutical manufacturing investment boom. David explores the growing tension between speed, quality, and cost as companies race to bring new facilities online, and explains how early collaboration with regulators can help accelerate validation without sacrificing compliance or long-term resilience. He also discusses the strategic decisions that separate proactive manufacturers from reactive ones, the lasting impact this investment cycle will have on U.S. manufacturing footprints, and the expanding set of options that could open new opportunities for smaller companies.

RenMac recaps key takeaways from the firm's 2026 Investor Forum, where stronger near-term data clashes with persistent weakness in housing and labor. Dutta argues inflation pressures continue to ease and deGraaf explains why that cooling inflation, improving breadth, and early strength in consumer discretionary point to a more constructive equity backdrop. Pavlick outlines why affordability is shaping energy, housing, and trade policy in a midterm year, while geopolitical tensions around China, Taiwan, and Venezuela remain underpriced. And the team dives into the Fed chair sweepstakes, debating Powell's staying power, the risks of politicized dissents, and what true Fed independence means for markets in 2026.

After years of volatility, pharmaceutical manufacturing is entering a new investment cycle, with hundreds of billions of dollars flowing into U.S. facilities. The surge promises expanded capacity, but also raises questions about workforce availability, infrastructure readiness, and long-term execution. In this episode of Off Script, we spoke with David Grote, vice president of strategy at GrayMatter Partners, about what this wave of funding means in practice. The conversation explores where investment is concentrating, how competition for skilled talent is shaping project timelines, the strain on shared resources, and why flexible facility design will be critical to sustaining growth beyond today's political and economic cycle.

RenMac digs into a complicated January jobs report that dampens near-term rate-cut expectations as Dutta warns that unemployment risks are rising beneath stable headlines, while deGraaf points to an updated Market Cycle Clock, falling yields and trend signals that still support equities. Pavlick outlines growing policy uncertainty around tariffs, housing affordability, and Venezuela, and the team explores why markets continue to shrug off geopolitical risk, how healthcare and biotech are emerging as contrarian opportunities, and what investors should watch for as earnings season and inflation data take center stage.Our Outlook call is now available.

RenMac kicks off 2026 with a wide-ranging discussion on the political reality around affordability and inflation, asset allocation myths, and what to watch as ISM and employment data kick off the year. Dutta argues inflation pressures are easing faster than expected across housing, labor, and energy. deGraaf highlights emerging cyclicality beneath soft year-end trading, cautioning that extended moves in commodities and precious metals are entering bubble territory. And Pavlick outlines why tariff relief is increasingly consumer-focused, how Taiwan and China remain a central geopolitical risk, and why midterm dynamics will shape policy more than campaign rhetoric.
