Thanks to our Partners, Pico Technology, Autel, and Independent Wrench JobsWatch Full Video EpisodeMatt opens with a home-repair “birthday gift” project that spirals from a simple bathroom refresh into a full-blown floor/toilet/subfloor/plumbing/trim/electrical ordeal. What starts as a kind gesture turns into a week-long marathon of improvisation, problem-solving, and unexpected complications.From there, he ties the experience directly into life in the repair shop: helping someone out, taking on a difficult job, making an exception, or trying to do the right thing can sometimes backfire in spectacular fashion. But the real point of the episode is deeper than the saying “no good deed goes unpunished.” Matt argues that the phrase feels true mostly because of bias, we remember the painful, sideways jobs and forget the many times helping people went just fine.The takeaway: keep doing the good deeds. The occasional disaster isn't punishment for being helpful; it's just part of the game, and our brains are wired to remember the bad outcomes more vividly.Key Topics CoveredA “simple” bathroom repair that became a major renovationHidden damage and how small symptoms often point to bigger problemsImprovisation and mechanical aptitude outside your normal fieldHow this mirrors difficult jobs in automotive repairThe “charity case” / exception job that turns into a nightmareBias, memory, and why bad outcomes stick harder than good onesWhy you should still help people when it makes senseMain TakeawaysSmall problems often hide bigger ones. (At home and in the shop.)Doing the right thing can get messy — that doesn't make it wrong.We remember painful exceptions more than routine wins.Bias can distort how we judge “helping people.”Keep helping when you can. The bad outcomes are memorable, but they are not the whole story.Notable Moments / Discussion HighlightsMatt's “cheap labor” role in a birthday bathroom remodelDiscovering a corroded toilet flange and badly rotted floorReinforcing unsupported bathtub flooring and rebuilding structurePlumbing improvisation under a new vanityUpgrading to GFCI in a bathroom that didn't have oneThe repair-shop analogy: the customer who arrives after multiple failed attempts elsewhereMaking exceptions (like customer-supplied parts)...

Cathy Heller breaks down why the law of attraction doesn't work and why the law of reception does. This conversation goes beyond surface-level manifestation advice into the Kabbalistic teaching of oneness and why your inability to receive isn't about worthiness—it's about believing you're separate from everything else.What you'll learn:Why reception is immediate but attraction keeps you stuckHow money circulation proves we're all oneThe "almost list" that's actually self-betrayalCathy Heller is the host of the Kathy Heller podcast and author of Abundant Ever After. She spent three years in Jerusalem studying Kabbalah, and her teaching on the law of reception versus the law of attraction has shifted how thousands of people understand abundance.Find Cathy's book "Abundant Ever After" and all links at: mindlove.com/442Ready to work on your almost list with real accountability?

Sometimes the hardest diagnosis becomes the clearest calling. In honor of Heart Health Awareness Month, I'm joined by Katelyn McMahan, host of Tiny Little Hearts, who shares how her daughter Goldie's severe congenital heart defect diagnosis at 18 weeks changed the trajectory of her life and ultimately inspired her to create the very community she couldn't find.

From unexpected friendships and speaking opportunities to landing her first affiliate partner, Katelyn's story is a powerful reminder that purpose can rise from the most painful seasons.

What do married Christian men wish someone had told them before the wedding day? Because once you step into covenant, everything shifts.We brought three married Christian men into the studio to answer women's questions about what marriage is actually like, what changes after the honeymoon phase, and what they did not fully understand when they were single.From attraction and lust to respect, purity, romance, and real life intimacy, this conversation pulls back the curtain on how a man's perspective evolves inside marriage.We'll talk about:Whether a man really “just knows” she's the oneThe hardest adjustment in the first year of marriageHow their view of physical attraction changed after getting marriedThe difference between attraction and lust from a married perspectiveWhat respect actually feels like to a husbandWhether women are unrealistic for wanting a man who does not watch pornHow married men pursue purity during seasons without sexWhat keeps a marriage strong long termWhat kills connection the fastestWhat turned out to be better than expectedIf you are single and trying to choose wisely, this episode will help you see past chemistry and into character.If you are married, it may help you understand your husband more than you expected.

What if the reason your business feels heavy isn't a strategy problem — it's an identity problem?And what if the very thing that made you successful is the exact thing keeping you stuck?In this episode, I'm sitting down with Eleanor Beaton — host of the Woman-Owned podcast, founder of Saffy Media, and one of the sharpest minds I know when it comes to helping women scale sustainably. Eleanor has spent years studying and coaching women entrepreneurs through the identity shifts required to go from doing all the things to leading the things — and she's wildly transparent about what that journey actually looks like (jealousy, embarrassment, and all).We dig into her framework of moving from producer to replicator to multiplier, the three levels of trust you need to build before your business can truly grow, why "subtract to multiply" is the most counterintuitive and important scaling advice you'll hear, and what Dr. Claudia Goldin's Nobel Prize-winning research says about women, work, and the long game. This one is a masterclass.What You'll LearnThe producer → replicator → multiplier framework and why most women leaders get stuck at stage oneThe surprisingly uncomfortable emotions that surface when your team starts getting the credit (and why you have to feel them to grow past them)Why "the amateur is always in a rush and the master never hurries" — and what healthy pacing actually looks like at different stages of growthThe "subtract to multiply" principle: simplicity scales, complexity fails — and how to audit your business for itResources Mentioned in This EpisodeEleanor's Podcast — Woman-Owned: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/woman-owned-the-growth-podcast-for-women-entrepreneurs/id1102833537Eleanor's Scaling Tools at Saffy Media: https://saffymedia.co

At the time of recording this episode, Bad Bunny has just made history—TWICE. First Spanish-language artist to win Album of the Year at the Grammys. Then he delivered the most-watched Super Bowl halftime show of ALL TIME. But this episode isn't just about celebrating Benito's wins (though we're absolutely doing that too). It's about what this moment means for ALL of us—especially right now, when being Latino has been demonized and criminalized in this country.Just a heads up that this episode is a replay of a recent Instagram live I did post-superbowl and the audio reflects that in some parts.

This episode is a supercut of standout moments from multiple Owned and Operated episodes, focused on one theme: how great operators build, scale, and eventually sell home service businesses.John Wilson pulls together some of the most valuable conversations from past episodes—covering acquisitions, exits, org structure, leadership at scale, and what actually changes when you stop running a single trade business and start building a platform.These clips span decades of operator experience, from buying broken HVAC companies to leading a $600M national home services business, and now applying the same playbook to new industries.What you'll hear in this supercut:How serial operators think about exits from day oneThe difference between running a trade and building a sellable businessWhy growth breaks when leadership and org structure can't keep upHow multi-location platforms balance local autonomy vs centralizationWhat private equity looks for in home service acquisitionsThis episode is ideal for listeners who want the big-picture thinking behind acquisitions, roll-ups, and long-term value creation—without committing to multiple full episodes.If you're building (or buying) a home service business and want to understand how experienced operators really think about scale and exits, this supercut is a must-listen.

From Consulting to Commerce Engines: Neil Twa on Amazon FBA, Algorithms, and Scaling With Intention In this episode of Uncomplicate It!, I sit down with Neil Twa, CEO and Co Founder of Voltage Holdings and co author of Almost Automated Income with FBA, for a real conversation about walking away from corporate security, embracing risk with intention, and building businesses designed to support life not consume it.Neil didn't leave IBM because he had everything figured out.

Manifestation is often taught as a mental process — but lasting change doesn't happen in the mind alone. It happens through the whole system: body, emotions, nervous system, and energy field.In this episode of The Future of Wellness, Keith Parker and Christabel Armsden explore manifestation through the lens of the chakra system — not as symbolism or belief, but as a functional map of how creation actually moves into form.They unpack why vision boards, affirmations, and “positive thinking” so often fail — and how unconscious patterns, protective blocks, and nervous system responses quietly shape what we create, attract, or struggle to sustain.Rather than forcing outcomes, this conversation reframes manifestation as a process of energetic coherence — where clarity, embodiment, and alignment allow life to respond naturally.In this episode, we explore:Why mindset alone doesn't create lasting changeManifestation as a systemic process, not a mental oneThe chakras as interfaces between intention, emotion, and actionHow “blockage” often functions as protection — not failureCommon manifestation patterns: vision without traction, over-efforting, burnout, waiting for certaintyWhy misalignment — not lack of effort — is often the real issueWhat changes when the system becomes coherent: clearer decisions, cleaner timing, less internal resistanceThis episode is for you if:You've tried manifestation tools but still feel stuck or misalignedYou sense that effort alone isn't the answerYou want a grounded, embodied understanding of the chakrasYou're curious how energy, nervous system regulation, and creation intersectLive Workshop — Manifestation & the ChakrasIf this conversation resonates, you're invited to join Keith and Christabel for a live, experiential online workshop:Manifestation & the Chakras: Creating from the Inside Out

Welcome to episode #253!

Welcome to Newbreed Christian Community!As the year advances, God intensifies His call from understanding into assignment. Revelation must now find expression, and wisdom must translate into sending. The season is no longer about preparation alone — it is about commissioning.On the 11th of January, 2026, Pastor David Oghenerobor ministers a defining apostolic message titled:

What if ancient Israel didn't start out believing in one God? In this groundbreaking episode, Oxford Professor Emeritus Dr. John Day reveals how archaeological evidence and biblical texts themselves show that early Israelites worshipped multiple deities from the Canaanite pantheon. With over 40 years of scholarship and doctorates from both Cambridge and Oxford, Dr. Day takes us on a fascinating journey through the religious landscape of ancient Canaan, where Yahweh was originally just one god among many, including El, Baal, and even goddesses like Asherah who was worshipped alongside Yahweh in the Jerusalem temple.Dr. Day traces the revolutionary transformation from polytheism to monotheism, showing how Yahweh absorbed attributes from other gods like El (becoming equated with him) while rejecting others like Baal. We explore how mythological creatures like Leviathan were borrowed from Canaanite sources, why "Israel" contains the name El rather than Yahweh, and how true monotheism didn't emerge until the Babylonian exile with Second Isaiah's radical declaration: "I am Yahweh, and there is no other." This conversation will challenge and deepen your understanding of how the biblical faith developed over centuries.In this episode you will learn:Why Deuteronomy 32:8-9 suggests Yahweh received Israel as his portion among 70 godsHow El and Yahweh were originally separate deities who later merged into oneThe shocking evidence that some Israelites worshipped Asherah as Yahweh's wifeWhy Baal was rejected while El was embraced in Israelite religionHow the seven-headed Leviathan from Canaanite mythology became part of Yahweh's identityThe difference between monolatry ("worship only one god") and monotheism ("only one god exists")King Josiah's radical 621 BC reformation that centralized worship in JerusalemWhy the Babylonian exile was the catalyst for absolute monotheismHow these Canaanite connections appear in the New Testament (Beelzebub, Revelation's seven-headed dragon)Why understanding this evolution enriches rather than threatens faithGuest's Work: Get Dr. Day's groundbreaking book "Yahweh and the Gods and Goddesses of Canaan": https://a.co/d/h6gCyuGAlso check out his extensive work on Genesis: "From Creation to Babel" and "From Creation to Abraham"Stay Connected with The Dig In Podcast: Subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@thejohnnyova Follow all things Johnny Ova: https://linktr.ee/johnnyova Get Johnny's book "The Revelation Reset": https://a.co/d/hiUkW8H#BiblicalArchaeology #AncientNearEast #Monotheism #Canaanite #Yahweh #BiblicalStudies #ChristianHistory #OldTestament #HebrewBible #AncientIsrael #BiblicalScholarship #ChurchHistory #Theology #ReligiousStudies #DigInPodcastSupport the show

What if the tension in your relationships isn't actually about the other person — but about patterns you learned long before you realized it?In this powerful and deeply practical conversation, licensed Marriage & Family Therapist Mark Cameron joins us to unpack attachment styles — how they form in childhood, how they quietly drive conflict in adulthood, and how secure attachment can actually be earned later in life.From marriage and parenting to leadership, faith, and emotional regulation, this episode connects the dots between why we react the way we do and how to break unhelpful cycles for good.Mark is a co-host of New Life Live, the largest Christian counseling call-in radio show in the country, and the author of Understanding Your Attachment Style.

Behind The Chosen: Faith, Film, and the Fight for CultureJoin host John Coleman on the set of The Chosen in Midlothian, Texas, for an unprecedented conversation with producers Chris Juen and Chad Gundersen of Out of Order Studios. From the Sanhedrin throne room itself, Chris and Chad share the untold story of how a crowdfunded Jesus project became a global phenomenon reaching 520 million people—and what it means for faith-driven investors seeking to impact culture through entertainment.Key Investment & Industry Topics:Why entertainment investment requires a platform approach, not one-off project betsHow The Chosen scaled from $0 budget for episode 5 to a multi-season global franchiseThe three investment pillars for cultural impact: spark the next generation, build infrastructure, create contentWhy investors should think like oil drillers: invest in a slate of 10 films, not just oneThe unpredictable nature of entertainment returns and how to approach risk wiselyBuilding production companies that operate between $1M-$150M budgets with studio-level qualityPowerful Quotes:"I'm tired of crappy Christian content. God doesn't want your crap. He calls us to be excellent." - Chad Gundersen"Christians yielded culture, then got mad when culture went bad. Fine, it's risky, but is it worth the risk?" - Chris Juen"Platforms, not projects. How do you get around the most excellent people in the industry who have a slate of content and invest in that diversified platform?" - John ColemanAbout the Guests:Chris Juen and Chad Gundersen are the co-founders of Out of Order Studios and executive producers of The Chosen, the largest crowdfunded media project in history. Chris brings 20 years of studio experience from major productions including Contact, Spider-Man, and Polar Express, while Chad contributed 20 years of independent filmmaking expertise. Together, they've pioneered a hybrid production model that delivers studio-quality content at independent budgets—proving that faith-driven content can compete at the highest levels of entertainment while maintaining both artistic excellence and fiscal responsibility.Their production philosophy centers on creating environments where cast and crew are valued, where believers and non-believers alike can experience the gospel through excellent storytelling, and where investors can participate in cultural transformation through strategic, well-managed capital deployment.

Lt. Gen. (Ret.) David “Abu” Nahom spent decades defending the American homeland, from commanding Alaska Command and the 11th Air Force to shaping Air Force budgets and strategy as the A8. Mike Dickey started his career in the original Strategic Defense Initiative, helped build the USSF and now advises companies and government leaders on the future of national security. Together, they unpack the realities behind Golden Dome: what it is, what it isn't, and why it may be the most complex defense undertaking of our time.Inside the episode:Why homeland defense is no longer a Cold War problem and why threats across all domains demand a fundamentally new architectureWhat it actually takes to detect, track, and intercept advanced weapons, from ballistic missiles to hypersonics to low-observable cruise missilesHow command & control is the real bottleneck, and why BMC2 will define the success or failure of Golden DomeWhy integrating F-35s, space sensors, legacy radars, and new AI systems is a social-engineering challenge as much as a technical oneThe role of startups in a mission where “move fast and break things” collides with the reality of life-or-death stakesWhy public perception lags far behind the actual threat picture and what Americans get wrong about homeland defenseThe technologies on the horizon that could completely reshape missile defense in the next decade• Chapters •00:00 – Intro00:41 – David's and Mike's Backgrounds04:01 – How Elara Nova has grown since last episode05:17 – What makes Golden Dome different?08:00 – How exposed has the US been to missile threats?10:53 – What is the Golden Dome supposed to look like today?14:02 – Not reinventing the wheel16:38 – Capabilities of today and tomorrow23:00 – How new modes of launch change missile defense24:57 – Integrating new solutions with current systems27:15 – Golden Dome isn't a technology problem29:41 – How much does ego play into the social engineering challenge of the Golden Dome?32:47 – Unable to fail in this startup-driven golden age of space and defense tech36:11 – Risks of the Golden Dome budget ballooning39:29 – The deterrence calculus42:12 – How will Golden Dome interface with our allies44:20 – Exciting defense tech being developed or doesn't exist yet46:29 – How putting weapons in space changes things48:13 – Golden Dome issues they wish were fixed today50:24 – What everyday Americans don't understand about the Golden Dome53:01 – Measurable outcomes that the Golden Dome works54:56 – What Mike and David do for fun• Show notes •Elara Nova's website — https://elaranova.com/Mo's socials — https://twitter.com/itsmoislamPayload's socials — https://twitter.com/payloadspace / https://www.linkedin.com/company/payloadspaceIgnition's socials — https://twitter.com/ignitionnuclear /  https://www.linkedin.com/company/ignition-nuclear/Tectonic's socials  — https://twitter.com/tectonicdefense / https://www.linkedin.com/company/tectonicdefense/Valley of Depth archive — Listen: https://pod.payloadspace.com/ • About us •Valley of Depth is a podcast about the technologies that matter — and the people building them.

The Energy of Transition: From Nine to OneThe final month of a Universal 9 Year is always a passage through sacred fire — a process of spiritual composting where everything old, outdated, or completed is lovingly returned to Source. The coming Universal 1 Year of 2026 begins a brand-new nine-year cycle — a cosmic reboot of creativity, leadership, innovation, and awakening.2025 (9 Year): Closure, forgiveness, compassion, release.2026 (1 Year): Birth, originality, courage, initiation.In this pivot, your job is to let the ashes of 2025 settle and honor all that has been completed. You are preparing the fertile soil for new creation.The Solstice energy amplifies this transition — it's the moment the light begins to return, symbolizing that from the stillness of winter, new life is quietly awakening. Let this remind you that endings and beginnings are not opposites but partners in the eternal dance of creation.  Listen as Laurie talks about this last month of 2025 and the impact on us and for each sign. Send us a textSupport the showThanks for listening - For questions or comments email Laurie at Laurie@yourlifecore.comInstagram @yourlifecore or Twitter @yourlifecore Facebook https://www.facebook.com/YourLifecoreWebsite www.yourlifecore.com

Now that we each have two “toddlers”… our tune has changed a little. This week we're breaking down the real transition from one to two kids — the good, the hard, the logistical circus, and the surprising parts no one prepares you for.

In this episode, John Wilson and Brandon Niro are joined by Zac Dearing from Mantel for a fast-paced, trivia-style breakdown of what homeowners actually want when buying HVAC and home services in 2025. Mantel just surveyed 500+ homeowners nationwide, and instead of guessing in the dark like most of the industry, we put real customer data on the board. John and Brandon compete to predict homeowner behavior — how many contractors people call, where they find you, what earns trust, how pricing impacts decisions, and what parts of the sales process truly move the needle.The results are a gut-check for any contractor, operator, or sales leader. Homeowners are still overwhelmingly finding contractors through Google and repeat relationships, AI search is basically nonexistent (despite all the noise), and reviews dominate how people assess quality. Even more interesting: millennials and baby boomers shop very differently, and the “price objection” narrative isn't as universal as we treat it in training. If you're trying to improve close rate, tighten your sales process, build real trust in the home, or decide how transparent to be with pricing and warranties, this episode is stacked with insights you can act on immediately.What You'll LearnHow many contractors homeowners contact before choosing oneThe real top channels homeowners use to find contractors in 2025Why AI search (ChatGPT/Perplexity/Claude) isn't driving discovery yet

Most of us have been told that if we want referrals, we should just ask for them. But, that approach can feel awkward.What if, instead of asking, you could design an experience that makes you naturally referable?That's exactly what my guest, Stacey Brown Randall, teaches. Stacey is the author of her new book The Referable Client Experience, and she's built a proven system to generate consistent referrals — without asking, without paying, and without gimmicky tactics.In this conversation, Stacey and I dig into:Why doing great work isn't enough to generate referralsThe three stages of the client experience — new, active, and alumni — and what to do in each oneThe difference between “work” touch points and “relationship” touch points (and how both matter)How to stay top of mind with clients after your work together is doneWhat speakers can do to create a “referable” experience for event organizersI especially loved Stacey's ideas for how we can nurture relationships in meaningful ways — like acknowledging that quiet voice of buyer's remorse with empathy and care, or sending a “You survived it!” gift to an event organizer after a big conference.These kinds of thoughtful, human touches don't just make you memorable — they make you referable.If you've ever wished more clients and speaking invitations came your way because people can't stop talking about the experience you create, this episode is for you.Tune in and start designing your own referable client (or audience!) experience.About My Guest: Stacey Brown Randall is the multiple award-winning author of Generating Business Referrals Without Asking, author of the forthcoming book, The Referable Client Experience (October 2025) and host of the Roadmap to Referrals podcast.Stacey teaches business owners how to generate referrals naturally...without manipulating, incentivizing or even asking.She has been featured in national publications like Entrepreneur magazine, Investor Business Daily, Forbes, and more.

Instead of another restrictive diet, WildFit restores our natural rhythms of eating and living.We dive into:The three natural metabolic states—and why most people are stuck in just oneThe hidden power of seasonal eating and extended fastingWhy some foods give us freedom while others keep us trapped in cravingsHow reconnecting with nature can help us reclaim vitality and joy✨ Ready to uncover your own evolutionary mismatches?
