Podcasts about One Small Step

In this episode of American Potential, special guest host Heather Andrews takes us inside Americans for Prosperity's Let Freedom Ring celebration in Utah to hear from people who turned one decision to get involved into years of meaningful action. From a Marine veteran fighting unnecessary regulations to a stay-at-home mom who found her voice in politics, an Australian immigrant who jumped into campus activism, and grassroots leaders working to expand freedom in Utah and Hawaii, Heather shares stories that demonstrate how ordinary people can have an extraordinary impact on their communities. The episode also catches up with Utah State Senator Heidi Balderree, whose journey from grassroots activist to elected office shows just how far that first step can lead. Heather also shares her own experience of walking into a local political office as a mother of four with no formal political background and simply asking how she could help. Her message for anyone wondering whether they can make a difference is simple: you don't need a degree, political experience, or a perfect plan. You just need to show up. It's a collection of inspiring One Small Step stories about civic engagement, individual freedom, and why getting off the sidelines can make a bigger difference than you might imagine.

​Reacher is strictly business, and we're back with another breakdown! Episode 3 just pushed the threat level way up, so we're dissecting every major plot point, military cover-up detail, and bone-crunching confrontation. Who can actually be trusted at this point? We're laying out all the clues and taking a look at what's coming down the wire for the rest of the season.​

Send us Fan MailPlaying at home for the first time in August, the Minnesota Twins took two of three games against the Baltimore Orioles, a fellow AL Wild Card contender. David mounts a defense of Alan Roden that frankly confuses Dan, who is ready to send Roden back to Triple-A to clear a roster spot for Byron Buxton. They are equally mixed on what to do with Kaelen Culpepper while being impressed with the play lately from Josh Bell in the DH spot. They discuss the strange play in the Blue Jays-Red Sox game earlier this week as well as a darkhorse bid for an MLB expansion team. And then, of course, they make their picks for a fun series against the Philadelphia Phillies, which opens at the Field of Dreams in Iowa.

The global excitement of Neil Armstrong's first step on the moon on this date in 1969 quickly gave way to the usual geo-political divisions and mistrust.

How do you become more courageous?Most of us think courage is reserved for life's biggest moments... a difficult conversation, a career change, or a leap of faith. But what if courage is actually built long before those moments arrive?In this episode of Strength in Numbers, Jilann continues the Quiet Strength: The Power of Heart Postures series by exploring how quiet leaders develop a courageous heart through small, everyday choices.From speaking up in a meeting to setting a healthy boundary or taking the next faithful step before you feel completely ready, courage isn't something you suddenly have; it's something you practice.Using practical leadership insights, a personal story, and the Enneagram, Jilann shares why courage looks different for each of us and how every small act of bravery prepares us for the bigger moments ahead.Why courage is built through everyday choices, not just life-changing momentsHow small acts of bravery strengthen your confidence over timeHow different Enneagram patterns influence the way we practice courageWhy you don't have to become someone else to become more courageousSimple ways to begin taking your next courageous step todayHow quiet leaders can grow in courage while staying true to who they areIf you've been waiting until you feel more confident before taking action, this episode offers a different perspective: confidence often grows because you choose courage first.You'll also hear about the Quiet Strength Gathering, a monthly online community where quiet leaders continue these conversations, encourage one another, and practice leading with greater courage, confidence, and authenticity.Keywords: courage, build courage, quiet leadership, courageous leadership, Enneagram, confidence, overcoming fear, personal growth, leadership development, authentic leadership, emotional resilience, self-awareness, women leaders, thoughtful leadership, Strength in Numbers podcast

Happy Spooky Wednesday!

“Ignore your teeth and they'll go away.” It's an old joke that isn't really a joke — and today I'm using it as a doorway into something bigger: the idea that your life isn't just built by what you add to it. It's also shaped by what you quietly stop tending to.Neglect Has a Direction. We tend to think of not doing something as a safe, neutral choice. It isn't. Teeth are the clearest example because the consequence is physical and undeniable — skip the maintenance long enough, and the tooth is just gone. There's no pause button.The Brain Does This Too. I dig into synaptic pruning — the real neurological principle where your brain actively prunes connections you don't use. I use my own experience losing touch with music appreciation after audiobooks and podcasts took over that mental space as a low-stakes example of something that happens in much higher-stakes places too: friendships, physical health, skills, faith.The Tending Principle — Three Parts. First, neglect is not neutral; doing nothing is still a direction, and that direction is decay. Second, capacity is finite — every yes is a quiet no to something else, and you often don't find out what you gave up until later. Third, some losses are recoverable and some aren't (my running came back; my teeth never will), and the real skill is being humble enough to tell the difference.It's Not Just the Obvious Stuff. I walk through how this shows up in physical fitness, friendships that thin out from lack of contact rather than conflict, skills and identity, and even resilience — I noticed my own capacity for handling crisis softened once my life got quieter and I stopped needing it as often.One Small Step. Take a general read of your life: does the actual shape of your time match the life you want? Then pick one thing — one relationship, one habit, one part of your health or your faith — that's been quietly slipping, and give it a little bit of attention this week. You won't get your whole life back at once, but you will get information, and that's what lets you choose on purpose instead of finding out by accident.Jill's Linkshttp://jillfromthenorthwoods.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@startwithsmallstepshttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/startwithsmallstepshttps://twitter.com/schmernEmail the podcast at jill@startwithsmallsteps.comBy choosing to watch this video or listen to this podcast, you acknowledge that you are doing so of your own free will.

Democrats' epic fails: Texas Senate candidate James Talarico's joint checking account with his MOM at 37, the "fail son" pattern from Graham Platner to AOC, and the new CNN poll showing just 29% of Democrats are proud to be Americans. Plus, why the Democrat midterm generic ballot lead is the weakest in decades. Then it gets WILD: inside California's $43 BILLION "gay certification" program for state contractors (yes, you read that right), Michelle Obama making Barack's presidential library all about "ME," and Amanda Seyfried hiring a bodyguard after attacking Charlie Kirk.

This week, we discuss rising inflation, the upcoming Federal Open Market Committee meeting, and the much anticipated SpaceX initial public offering. Consumer prices continued to accelerate in May, with headline CPI rising 4.2% from a year earlier and core CPI increasing 2.9%. Alternative measures of inflation, including median, trimmed mean, and sticky CPI, also pointed to broadening price pressures. Producer prices rose at their fastest pace since 2022, prompting economists to revise their forecasts for the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge, the Personal Consumption Expenditures index, higher. The renewed inflationary pressure complicates the outlook for monetary policy. With inflation moving further from the Federal Reserve's target, policymakers may find it increasingly difficult to justify lower interest rates and could instead be forced to maintain or even tighten policy. We examine the forces shaping the inflation outlook and discuss what investors should expect from the next FOMC meeting under the leadership of Kevin Warsh. We also turn to the SpaceX initial public offering and the broader state of financial markets. Investor enthusiasm for high growth companies remains intense, even as SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI continue to generate substantial losses. The willingness of investors to assign extraordinary valuations to unprofitable businesses evokes uncomfortable comparisons with the technology boom of the late 1990s.

In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Tennessee State Representative Elaine Davis to share an inspiring story of how one mother's determination led to real change. After her son was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, Elaine discovered a critical gap in school health care—many schools didn't have nurses available to provide life-saving support. What started as a personal challenge became a mission, as she navigated local and state government to help pass legislation protecting students with medical needs. Now serving in the Tennessee legislature, Elaine reflects on her journey from concerned parent to policymaker, offering insight into the legislative process, the importance of relationships, and how everyday citizens can make a difference. This episode is a powerful reminder that meaningful change often begins with one small step—and that when individuals step up, they can create a lasting impact for their communities and future generations.

The new Lynx Highliner looks much better than we expected.

The Stellar and Galactic Editions, which come preconfigured and bundled with cosmetic options, will be available on the same day, for an allegedly modest number of ARX.

"We're living in this collective illusion where the extremes are mischaracterizing who we are as a people." More than 70% of Americans — across every demographic — say their deepest aspiration is to contribute to the lives of others. Most of them think they're alone in that. They're not. Brian Hooks, Chairman and CEO of Stand Together, joins the show to make the case that the country's most urgent challenge isn't changing who people are. It's giving them permission to be who they already want to be.

Hooks challenges the framing that pits individualism against community. Drawing on Abraham Maslow's concept of synergy, he argues the selfish and the selfless aren't in tension — when they merge, you get a flywheel of progress rather than a zero-sum fight. We're living a collective illusion. Neuroscientist Todd Rose's research reveals that most people privately want to contribute to their communities — but assume they're outliers. That self-silencing lets a loud minority misrepresent the country's character. Naming the illusion is the first step to dissolving it. The challenge isn't persuasion. It's permission. Hooks argues Americans don't need to be convinced to be better citizens — they need social permission to act on values they already hold. When people see someone just like them doing it, they follow. Frederick Douglass as a North Star for coalition-building. Hooks returns repeatedly to Douglass's vision of the Declaration as "saving principles" — not yet fulfilled, but aspirational in a way that can hold very different people together. Shared direction, not agreement on everything, is what makes diverse coalitions work. Stop picking a side. Start building policy coalitions. Stand Together learned the hard way that partisan politics leads to being taken for granted. Americans for Prosperity now pursues a policy-coalition strategy — working with Republicans and Democrats alike, and holding both accountable. It's hard to hate up close. Whether it's StoryCorps' One Small Step project or Stand Together's work in 1,300 communities, the pattern holds: when people work side by side on real problems, the tribal labels fade fast. Don't debate online. Go grab a beer. About Our Guest Brian Hooks is Chairman and CEO of Stand Together, a philanthropic community of more than 700 business leaders and philanthropists working to remove the barriers holding people back. He is also President of the Charles Koch Foundation and the Charles Koch Institute. Stand Together works with over 1,000 professors, tens of thousands of K-12 teachers, 200+ community-based organizations, and millions of grassroots activists.

Are Democrats losing control of their own coalition—or is this exactly where it was always headed? The fellas—Josh Holmes, Comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan, and (briefly missing) John Ashbrook—talk about a political landscape that feels less like strategy and more like chaos. From fringe activists gaining mainstream influence to protests that look more like performance art than persuasion, the question becomes unavoidable: who's actually in charge anymore? The fellas break it all down with zero patience for nonsense and plenty of laughs, cutting through media spin, exposing contradictions, and calling out the uncomfortable reality shaping today's political battlefield. And yes—it gets weird. Really weird. In this episode… No Kings protests that feel more staged than organic The rise of Hasan Piker and the Democrats' growing identity crisis Media scrambling to clean up a monster they helped create Why Michigan—and voters in Dearborn—are suddenly center stage PLUS, A CHOCOLATE HEIST SO RIDICULOUS IT SOUNDS MADE UP. Special Guests: Scott Kupor (Director, Office of Personnel Management) – Fixing the federal workforce pipeline

Today on The Peak Daily, we break down NASA's Artemis II mission as it prepares to send four astronauts, including Canadian Jeremy Hansen around the moon. Then, we look at why the closure of the Strait of Hormuz is pushing parts of Asia toward emergency energy cuts and could send prices soaring worldwide. Plus Air Canada's CEO plans to step down, Canada moves to slash development fees to spur homebuilding, and Meta tests a new premium subscription for Instagram.The Peak Daily is produced in partnership with reframevid.com

In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Brady Cupples, co-chair of his county's Young Republicans, to share his journey from political observer to active leader. Brady opens up about what sparked his renewed interest in politics, how the events of recent years motivated him to get involved, and the simple step that changed everything—showing up. What started as attending a local meeting quickly turned into building connections, working on campaigns, and stepping into a leadership role in his community. He also discusses the issues that drive his passion, including immigration, education, and crime, and why he believes it's critical for young people to engage in the political process—especially in states where their views may be in the minority. Brady's story is a powerful example of the “one small step” idea: you don't need a perfect plan to get started. Sometimes, just showing up can lead to opportunities to lead, influence, and make a real difference.

Just as Neil Armstrong's first step on the moon in 1969 changed the course of history in ways no one could have imagined, a single step of faith can lead to outcomes beyond our wildest dreams. This sermon explores how God turns our small steps into giant leaps. Drawing from the Songs of Ascent (Psalms 120–134) and the miraculous healing at the Pool of Bethesda, we are reminded that God always has a process — and that He is putting us together piece by piece. All He asks is that we take the step. He will handle the leap.

Drawing from the Songs of Ascent (Psalms 120–134) and the miraculous healing at the Pool of Bethesda, we are reminded that God always has a process — and that He is putting us together piece by piece. All He asks is that we take the step. He will handle the leap.

If Jen Drummond can climb K2, you can open that Roth IRA. That's the premise of this greatest hits episode featuring mountaineer and author Jen Drummond, who became the first woman to complete the Seven Second Summits. But here's why we're replaying this conversation from early 2024: it's not about mountaineering. It's about courage. Joe Saul-Sehy opens by explaining why courage matters for your money goals. It takes courage to look at your financial life honestly, to try something new like opening your first investment account, to admit you made a mistake and course correct. Courage builds confidence, which gives you the commitment to take another step. It works like a flywheel. One brave decision leads to another, which builds more confidence, which creates momentum. Jen's story illustrates this perfectly. After surviving a devastating 2018 car crash that first responders said should have killed her, and losing a friend shortly after, she made a decision to "die living." That mindset took her from someone who'd never slept in a tent to the top of some of the world's most dangerous peaks. But what makes Jen's approach so valuable isn't the extreme nature of her goals. It's her method. She didn't succeed through recklessness. She succeeded through preparation, safety protocols, building the right team, learning from others who'd gone before her, and breaking massive goals into clear milestones. Sound familiar? That's exactly how you build wealth. Throughout the conversation, Jen shares lessons that apply whether you're climbing Everest or just trying to max out your 401(k). How to push through "blue ice" (those moments when progress slows to a crawl and every move has to count). Why big goals require big teams (you can't do this alone). How to fire bad help when someone's dragging you down. Why getting to the summit is only halfway (you need enough energy to get home safely). The episode also includes practical career advice for navigating today's tougher job market, from refreshing your LinkedIn profile to the power of face to face networking, plus Doug's trivia about Andrew Jackson and the only day the U.S. was completely debt free. What You'll Learn: • Why courage is a skill you develop through reps, not something you're born with • How small brave decisions compound into bigger ones (the flywheel effect) • Why preparation and safety matter more than boldness in any big goal • How to break down overwhelming goals into clear, achievable milestones • Why looking back at progress matters as much as looking ahead • The importance of learning from others who've achieved what you're attempting • How to build the right team around your goals and fire people who hold you back • Why getting to your goal is only halfway (you need sustainability, not just achievement) • Practical strategies for strengthening your career in a competitive job market • How Jen's "blue ice" moments teach us to slow down and be deliberate during tough stretches This Episode Is For You If: • You're intimidated by financial goals that feel too big or complicated • You keep putting off important money moves because you're scared of making mistakes • You need permission to start small and build momentum over time • You're looking for a framework that works for any goal (financial or otherwise) • You believe courage is something you can develop, not just inherit This is a greatest hits episode because Jen's message about building courage through action is exactly what you need heading into a new year. If she can climb the second highest peak on every continent, you can absolutely handle that 401(k), that budget, that first investment account. Question for You: What's one small brave money move you could make this week? Opening an account? Checking your credit score? Having that awkward budget conversation? Drop it in the comments or The Basement Facebook group because sometimes the first step isn't dramatic, it's just intentional. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Emily Seidel, CEO of Americans for Prosperity, live from Philadelphia as the America 250 celebrations begin. Together, they reflect on the founding principles that shaped the nation — self-governance, individual liberty, and the belief that our rights come from our Creator — and why those ideas are still essential 250 years later. As pride in America declines and more people feel the American Dream is out of reach, Emily explains how the One Small Step campaign is working to restore hope and personal agency. From grassroots activism to empowering citizens to take meaningful action in their communities, this conversation explores how everyday Americans can recommit to the values that made the country exceptional — and help shape the next 250 years of freedom.

I welcome my childhood friend Dr. Mike Meaney back on the show where we discuss how pain changes how a life moves. It sharpens every edge, tests every bond, and forces you to decide what you believe when there are no easy choices left. That's where our conversation begins: a candid account of failed orthopedic surgeries, a system that too often rewards the cut over the cure, and the daily reality of living inside a body that won't stop hurting. We examine how fee-for-service medicine, device royalties, and surgical center ownership can bend decisions, why second and third opinions matter, and what patients can do to avoid becoming a statistic in a volume-driven industry.From there, we turn toward the inner struggle—resentment, justice, and the long road to healing. We talk openly about opioids as a seductive solution to the human problem of physical pain, and the devastation they leave behind. We sit with the hardest question: when harm is done under anesthesia, what does forgiveness mean? Faith enters not as a slogan but as a practice. We return to the simple Catholic teachings we learned as kids—tell the truth, avoid violence, treat others as you wish to be treated, care for the marginal—and measure them against adult complexity. We explore the mystical claims of Christianity with clear eyes, and why daily sobriety can feel like proof enough for belief.Then we build forward. Our guest shares One Small Step, a platform delivering certified peer support on nights and weekends for people on Medicaid—exactly when the rest of the system is closed or the ER is the only option. We walk through how human-in-the-loop AI can safely triage, detect pre-crisis signals, and route people to real peers with lived experience, reducing avoidable ER visits and giving support that actually meets people where they are. It's a practical blueprint for reform: dignified care, data-informed decisions, and a focus on outcomes that matter.If this conversation resonates—about pain, faith, accountability, or access to real help—share it with someone who needs it. And if you appreciate these deep, unfiltered talks, tap follow, leave a quick review, and tell us: where do you draw the line between justice and mercy?To learn more about One Small Step head over to https://onesmallstep.io/Support the showWarmly,Nico Barraza@FeedTheSoulNBwww.nicobarraza.com

This episode is an interview with Mike Meaney, CEO and founder of One Small Step that provides peer support to people with mental health and addiction crises. He discusses his own personal recovery journey that inspired him to become a certified peer.Most of us underestimate how critical peer support can be in mental health and addiction recovery- until we hear stories like Mike's, who turned his personal struggles into a groundbreaking platform that saves lives during nights and weekends when traditional help is scarce.In this powerful episode, Mike Meaney shares his deeply personal journey from blackout drinking at 16 to building a platform for certified peer support that's transforming mental health care. Dr. Kibby and Mike discuss how lived experience combined with innovative technology is closing gaps in access, especially when emergency services aren't the right answer. Failing to recognize the power of peer support leaves millions vulnerable in their darkest hours, missing out on an accessible, stigma-reducing lifeline. For anyone battling addiction, mental health challenges, or supporting someone who is, this episode reveals a hopeful path forward, grounded in authenticity and innovation.If you're tired of the same old approaches and want to see how empathy combined with tech can revolutionize mental health care, this conversation is essential listening. Mike Meaney is CEO of One Small Step, a platform dedicated to on-demand peer support supported by clinical supervision, revolutionizing how people access help in their most vulnerable moments.Resources:One Small Step website

Pack your bags (and maybe a clothespin for your nose) because this week on Hysteria 51 we're going interplanetary and intestinal.First up: luxury travel has officially left Earth. A startup is taking reservations—yes, real money—to be among the first guests at a proposed hotel on the Moon. We're talking deposits that can range from “casual quarter-mil” to a full $1,000,000 just to hold your spot, with the total trip potentially climbing far beyond that once you factor in the whole “rocket commute” situation. It's space tourism with a side of “do they validate parking in low gravity?” Then we come crashing back down to Earth with science that sounds like it was invented in a middle-school cafeteria: the idea that “sniffing farts” could help protect your brain. Under the jokes is a real research thread around hydrogen sulfide (the “rotten egg” gas associated with flatulence) and how it may help protect brain cells in Alzheimer's-related mouse studies—less “weaponized crop dusting,” more “biochemistry doing something weird and promising.” So if you like your weird news with equal parts sci-fi dreams and “please don't say that out loud,” this episode is your perfect storm: moon hotel reservations, space-tourism absurdity, and the unexpectedly serious science of stink.Links & Resources

How is it that during the era of Trump and Con Inc. Twitter, we seem to embrace so many good ideas, and Trump even embarks on implementing some of them, yet over time we continue to slide backward? It's because there is no follow-through and the Left evolves to bigger playing fields. I explain the "small step forward, giant leap backward" dynamic in terms of immigration, crime, abortion, culture, techno-fascism from COVID, and digital currency. Also, what is the endgame of the AI data-center agenda? There is some good news, as local residents in some counties are successfully fighting back. Red-state land rights are the civil right of our time, and you should feel empowered that we could battle this all on the local level.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this inspiring episode of American Potential, host David From is joined by Daniel Bassali, Vice President of Public Affairs for Americans for Prosperity, to discuss the launch of the One Small Step campaign—AFP's bold, nationwide effort to celebrate America's 250th anniversary by spotlighting the everyday citizens who are shaping the future of freedom. Bassali explains how One Small Step draws inspiration from iconic figures like Harriet Tubman, Betsy Ross, and Neil Armstrong—people who took action not for fame, but because it mattered. These American pioneers prove that profound change starts with a single courageous act. And today, that legacy lives on in community members testifying at city council meetings, homeschooling moms fighting for education freedom, and students like Caleb Williams who've become powerful policy advocates before the age of 21. Bassali and From explore how AFP serves as a platform to amplify these local voices, empower bottom-up solutions, and fuel a new generation of civic leadership. Whether it's helping someone write a letter to the editor or organizing grassroots momentum around school choice, every small step adds up to something greater. This episode is a rallying cry: You don't need a title or a microphone to make a difference. You just need to take the first step.
