Yes, really.Topics covered: Why alcohol feels like it helps with overwhelm — and what it's actually doing | The dopamine anticipation loop that starts at 3pm | Borrowing relief from tomorrow — and what you're paying back | The habit loop: cue, routine, reward — in plain language | Why cravings are still strong after two weeks (and what the 90-day reset actually means) | The July Fourth craving that passed in twenty minutes | Playing it forward | Nervous system regulation tools that actually work — including vacuuming and your high school playlist | The two questions to ask when a craving hitsThe two questions: What am I feeling right now?

ATF Director Robert Cekada and Chief Counsel Robert Leider outline the internal steps that are taken to prevent the agency's reforms from quickly being undone by future administrations, and the critical role that gun owners play in ensuring reforms continue.

AI can speed up your business. But it cannot replace real human trust. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down the H2H advantage and why human-to-human sales will continue to outlast every automation trend. Let's be real… A chatbot can answer questions. Automation can handle admin work. AI can speed up fulfillment. But when someone is about to invest serious money… They want trust. They want connection. They want a real human being on the other side. In this episode, you'll learn: Why AI should support connection, not replace it How over-automation can damage trust in high-ticket sales Why human relationships still drive real business decisions How personal connection can become your strongest competitive moat The truth is simple: Algorithms do not sign contracts. People do. And in a world full of automated spam… Generic outreach… Cold funnels… And robotic communication… Genuine human connection becomes even more valuable. High-level operators do not use technology to hide. They use it to create more time for relationships. More time for calls. More time for meetings. More time for dinners. More time to actually serve the client. Because the businesses that win long term are built on trust. Use the tech. Automate the repetitive work. But never lose the human element. Shake the hand. Build the relationship. Earn the loyalty. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Marty Hofman built a multi-million dollar real estate operation from a single $5,000 duplex, but what he's really known for isn't the portfolio. He's the founder of OKC REIA, the host of the Kill Complacency podcast with over 180,000 downloads, and the author of "Complacency Kills: Stop Drifting and Start Living the Life God Designed You For." He's also a husband of 24 years to his wife Ginger, a father of six, and a man who has built his entire life around one relentless idea: complacency is always at the door. In this conversation, Marty and Larry get into the Seven F's framework, why "I want to be more intentional" is meaningless without specifics, how your environment will eventually defeat your willpower, and what it actually looks like to fight for your marriage and your kids at the same time. If you've ever felt like you're living on autopilot and you can't quite put your finger on why, this episode was made for you. Marty is a husband, father of six, real estate investor, podcast host, and author who has given his life to helping men kill complacency before it kills everything they care about. This is Episode 1496 of the Dad Edge. Marty's book just dropped in May and this conversation is everything you'd hope for from a man who doesn't just talk about living with intention, he's built an entire framework to help you do it every single day. Timeline Summary [1:02] Marty joins the show and Larry kicks things off with a quote that anchors the whole episode: "The enemy of intention is complacency" [2:18] Why complacency isn't a one-time enemy you defeat — it keeps knocking, every single day, like Oreos on the kitchen counter [5:22] "Your environment will eventually trump your willpower" — Marty and Larry debate where willpower ends and environment takes over [8:46] Why saying "I want to be more intentional" is not enough — and what it actually takes to turn that into a real behavior change [10:43] The difference between a vague goal and a measurable one: phone away at the door, greet your wife by name, make it specific [12:34] Todd Herman's insight on the first 45 seconds of any interaction and why Marty puts it to work every time he walks through the front door [14:04] Larry introduces Marty's full background — the $5,000 duplex, the Kill Complacency podcast, the Seven F's framework, 24 years of marriage to Ginger [30:27] How intentional actions become identity over time — and why date night stops being a discipline and starts being just who you are [32:16] Why putting your marriage on the front burner is the best thing you can do for your kids, not despite them [36:50] Faith as a daily decision — how Marty grew up in a Christian home of 10 kids, went to Bible college at 18, and met Ginger there [43:16] Six kids, ages 9 to 22 — how Marty stays intentional across the board by protecting Friday family night like a funeral-level commitment [51:33] Parenting adult kids and the part nobody talks about — Marty tells the story of his son Ezekiel, video game addiction, homelessness, and what it means to show up when your kid can't have a conversation [57:54] Why we have to let our kids fail — and why praying for your child to hit rock bottom is one of the hardest, most loving things a parent can do [1:00:29] Where Ezekiel is now — working construction, up at 5am to read his Bible, completely transformed [1:02:04] Where to find Marty, the Kill Complacency assessment, and the book that just came out May 12th Five Key Takeaways Complacency is not something you defeat once. It comes back every day, in every area of your life, which is exactly why intentionality has to be a daily practice, not a one-time decision. "I want to be more intentional" means nothing without specifics. Put your phone in the car on date night, greet your wife by name when you walk in the door, and schedule one-on-ones with each of your kids. Vague goals produce vague results. Your environment will eventually beat your willpower. If you want to change a behavior, change what you're surrounded by first, whether that's removing the cookies from the counter or getting away from friends who make the habit harder to break. Prioritizing your marriage over your kids is not selfish, it's the most important thing you can do for them. When your kids feel the security of a strong, affectionate marriage, they feel safe. When that foundation cracks, they feel it at 9 and still feel it at 39. You have to let your kids fail. As painful as it is to watch, failure is where they learn best and sometimes the most loving thing a dad can do is stay in relationship, keep showing up, and pray for them to hit the bottom they need to hit to climb back up.

Whether it was the moment he described greeting Ginger by name when he walked through the door, the Friday night family tradition his kids now look forward to, or the raw honesty of watching his son Ezekiel hit rock bottom and praying for it to happen so he could finally come back, this conversation was a reminder that intentional living isn't a personality type. It's a daily decision. Share this one with a man in your life who you know is drifting. He needs to hear it.

Spartan Race started as an idea written on a napkin during a financial crisis. No business plan. Limited money. No guarantee any of it would work. Brian Duncanson, one of the original architects behind Spartan, sits down with Joe De Sena to walk through the real origin story: a meeting in Hartford in December 2009, the decision to fire before aiming, and a ragtag team that turned mud and barbed wire into a global brand operating in 45 countries.   They break down the Fenway Stadium gamble Joe did not want to take, the pandemic pivot that forced DECA into a box, and why the strongest ideas at Spartan came when resources were thinnest. Brian also introduces his book, Becoming Spartan: Leveraging Friction to Forge, Scale, and Outlast, and explains what seventeen years of building under pressure taught him about action, constraint, and the 1% daily grind. Things You Will Learn: Why the strongest business innovations at Spartan came from resource constraints rather than abundance. The fire-ready-aim approach that turned a napkin sketch into a global endurance brand during a financial crisis. What breaking a massive goal into checkpoint-sized commitments does for focus, execution, and follow-through. Tools & Frameworks Covered: Two Bike Math: When you lose a resource, the team that adapts fastest wins. Constraint forces innovation you would never find in comfort. Fire Ready Aim: Stop planning. Launch small. Test in the market. Adjust under pressure. The plan improves only after contact with reality. Checkpoint Navigation: Break the hundred-mile goal into five-mile segments. Solve the first one. Then move to the next. Momentum compounds.   If this episode moved you, do not just listen. Do something about it. Sign up. Show up. Do the work. Spartan.com. No more excuses. Chapters: 00:00 Intro: Joe and Brian Duncanson go back to the late 1990s 01:04 How adventure racing on TV changed Brian's corporate life 03:50 Why adventure racing was too expensive and too hard to scale 05:19 Joe at nine years old: destroying a park to build a BMX track 07:07 Leaving Wall Street: Joe stops feeling alive at the trading desk 08:01 Financial crisis, biking across America, and a friend's death on the road 09:17 The Hartford napkin: December 2009 and the birth of Spartan 12:44 The ragtag team that invented the spear throw and rope climb 14:31 The Fenway Stadium gamble Joe did not want to take 16:35 Complacency kills: why backs-against-the-wall moments drive the best work 17:58 Eight kids staring at devices and three playing hacky sack 20:52 Kids chose their phones over ice cream and watched it melt 22:14 Burning through cash to build a global brand, then doing it again after the pandemic 25:03 Brian's book: how Spartan stories became business lessons 28:50 Why sitting around planning kills more ideas than launching ugly 29:56 Action as the antidote: checkpoints, calendars, and the first five miles 33:05 Hammering metal into a sword: the 1% daily grind that outlasts shortcuts   Brian Duncanson is a longtime Spartan community member, endurance athlete, and event producer who has spent years embracing unpredictable challenges and pushing beyond comfort zones. Having competed in more than 50 adventure races while producing over 150 race events, Brian has built a life around resilience, leadership, and taking on difficult challenges. His story highlights endurance, adaptability, and the mindset required to keep showing up when things get hard.

Leadership is easy to talk about when everything is calm. But what about when the system feels stretched? When the team is tired. When the pressure is high. When the old ways of leading are no longer working… but the new way forward still feels unclear. That's where people-first leadership becomes more than a nice idea. It becomes a strategy. Because if leaders want to build strong teams, close skill gaps, make better decisions, and create cultures where people can actually do their best work, they have to start with the humans in the room. Including themselves. My special guest today is Christy Honeycutt and she's simplifying how to create a people-first leadership strategy. We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including: Where leaders should begin when they are assessing where their team is now, identifying skill gaps, and clarifying where they want the team to go next. What it means to "hold space" for C-suite leaders and founders as they elevate, especially in high-pressure seasons of transition. How self-awareness, CliftonStrengths, and meditation can help leaders understand their strengths, regulate their emotions, and make better decisions under pressure. A sneak peek inside her upcoming book, The Inner Work of Leading in a Broken System, and the core ideas leaders need right now to reclaim agency, alignment, and purpose. And there's a moment where we totally geek out about a reality TV show on Netflix called "Outlast: the Jungle" that teaches you a lot about good (and bad!) leadership styles that (totally) translate to Corporate America. Q: Are you wanting to create a people-first leadership strategy? If yes, this one is for you. It's time to #DoTheThing! ---- Show notes available with all links mentioned here: https://www.thesimplifiers.com/posts/425-how-to-create-a-people-first-leadership-strategy---with-christy-honeycutt

Outlast: The Jungle Recap Netflix's Outlast: The Jungle Season 3 gets a full season recap as Brandon Donlon hosts with Chappell and special guest Omar Zaheer. This lively roundtable takes a close look at how the show evolved in its third season, including a dramatic shift in casting and new ways that social dynamics impacted survival and strategy. With infamous teams, intense betrayals, and debate on what makes a true reality TV villain, the trio digs into why this season stands out from its predecessors. They tackle how Outlast's format changes, like majority-rule voting and production-forced sacrifices for resources, created constant tension and higher stakes throughout the game. The episode also serves up spirited discussion about which contestants might have thrived on Survivor and how Outlast's combination of skilled survivalists and social-media-savvy newcomers shaped the season's memorable moments. Analysis of the casting shift from survival experts to influencer types and its impact on team chaos and personal drama. Breakdown of the new majority-rule elimination mechanic, with parallels to Survivor's tribal council strategies. Discussion of resource bargaining twists, forced betrayals, and sabotage, highlighting iconic moments like kayak theft and the infamous seagull incident. Fan-favorite and “villain” candidates: who would crush it on Survivor, and who became lightning rods for controversy and conflict. Real talk about character arcs, including hard-luck exits and the season's tragic, unresolved endings. Outlast Season 3 pushed its players—and its audience—with more ruthless gameplay and unpredictable alliances than ever before. Which strategies and twists would translate to Survivor, and what does this season say about the state of competitive reality TV? Dive into the full recap for sharp Survivor comparisons, vivid discussion of key moves, and plenty of debate over the season's most polarizing characters. 00:00 Outlast the Jungle Kicks Off 06:12 Contest Structure and Format Evolution 12:04 Casting Shifts: Survivalists to Influencers 17:41 Ferro Rods and Fire Challenges 23:00 Ben's Downfall and Team Reactions 29:00 Ben's Blunders and Comic Relief 34:04 All-Girls Alliance Falters Quickly 40:18 Wes’ Villainy Examined 42:36 Leiya's Escape Plan Unravels 48:51 Survival Stakes: Hardship Versus Gameplay 54:03 Should Leiya Have Stayed? 01:01:16 Would You Play Outlast? 01:05:21 Survivor Mechanics: Lessons from Outlast To order Rob’s book, The Tribe and I Have Spoken, visit www.robhasabook.com Never miss a minute of RHAP's coverage!

The dip is where most people quit. And it is also where real entrepreneurs are made. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why extreme consistency is required when the excitement fades, the results slow down, and the grind gets boring. Let's be real… The launch is exciting. The final win looks glamorous. But the middle? That part is hard. That part is slow. That part is where most people disappear. In this episode, you'll learn: Why every major business journey has a brutal middle phase How boredom and friction cause weak competitors to quit Why systems matter more than motivation during hard seasons How surviving the dip helps you inherit market share The truth is simple: You will not always feel motivated. You will not always see instant results. You will not always get rewarded right away. But the daily work still has to get done. The calls. The emails. The follow-ups. The boring inputs. The repetitions nobody sees. High-level operators do not quit when the dopamine wears off. They rely on systems. They trust the math. They keep moving when the results are delayed. Because the people who survive the dip usually win the market. Put your head down. Do the work. Outlast the hard phase. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Taking you through the last two episodes of 'Outlast the Jungle' and discussing the exhausting 2-day race, the winners, and the very deserving losers.FWIW: The title of my last video was '1 Toxic Man Spoils the Bunch' and a lot of comments (from toxic men) proved my point even further. If you comment misogynistic or manosphere talking points you'll find yourself permanently removed from my channel & unable to comment. The good news is, you can go find a male reviewer who is also watching this show and will share all of your opinions.

Was this a battle to survive the elements, or to survive misogynistic men...? You tell me! After watching 6 episodes maybe it's fair to say that it's both. Relax, get yourself some coconut water & prepare to be taken through the dynamics of Team(s) Alpha, Bravo & Charlie and some of the most egregious scenarios we saw play out on our screens this season. Tell me who you want to see me interview in the comments & leave any questions that you have. You may hear your question asked on the next episode!

A flood destroyed the factory, the FDA shut them down, and the company had almost no cash and then something remarkable happened.  Ramon Vela sits down with Alex Whitmore, Founder & CEO of Taza Chocolate, for a deeply human conversation about twenty-plus years of stone-ground, mission-driven chocolate making in Somerville, Massachusetts.  From a transformative trip to Oaxaca to pioneering direct trade relationships with cocoa farmers in Haiti and the Dominican Republic, Alex's story is one of the most compelling in the specialty food world. * The flood that almost ended everything. Just a few years into building Taza, a freak thunderstorm flooded the factory, destroyed inventory, and triggered an FDA shutdown. What happened next surprised even Alex: suppliers, customers, landlord, and community all showed up. That moment taught him that business is deeply human at its core. * A trip to Oaxaca that changed everything. The name Taza comes from "taza de chocolate," a traditional Mexican drinking chocolate. After visiting stone mills in southern Mexico in his twenties, Alex came home and built the only company in America making chocolate on traditional Mexicano stone mills — and that founding commitment still defines every bar made today. * Direct trade before it was a trend. Taza built relationships directly with cocoa farmers, paying above fair trade prices and publishing an annual transparency report. When the global cocoa crisis hit and prices spiked, those long-standing farmer relationships became a genuine competitive and operational lifeline. * Twenty years of staying independent. Taza raised only $120,000 at the start and never chased outside capital. Alex walks through what two decades of bootstrapping in an intensely competitive specialty food category actually teaches you about patience, resilience, and staying true to your craft. * Start with the Wicked Dark. Taza's number one seller is a 95% dark chocolate bar made with cocoa beans from the Dominican Republic and Haiti. Alex also points new fans to the Mexican Style Chocolate Discs, the product that best captures who Taza has always been. Join us in listening to this episode for a rich and genuinely moving conversation about craft, community, and what it means to build a brand with deep roots and unshakeable values over two decades.  Whether you are a chocolate lover, a founder, or someone who just needs a reminder of why the mission matters, this one will stay with you.  Visit: https://www.tazachocolate.com/ If you enjoyed this episode, please leave The Story of a Brand Show a rating and review.  Plus, don't forget to follow us on Apple and Spotify.  Your support helps us bring you more content like this! * Today's Sponsors: Saral - The Influencer OS: https://www.getsaral.com/demo SARAL is the all-in-one influencer platform that finds brand-aligned creators, automates outreach, and manages everything in one place.

Patience is not weakness. It is one of the most profitable traits in business. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why outlasting the competition is often the ultimate strategy for building real wealth. Let's be real… If you pivot every three months… If you quit every time the market gets hard… If you restart every time the results do not come fast enough… You are not adapting. You are resetting your progress to zero. In this episode, you'll learn: Why the market naturally filters out impatient entrepreneurs How short-term friction protects long-term opportunity Why real compounding happens over years, not weeks How patience helps you inherit market share when others quit The truth is simple: The barrier is not always a sign to stop. Sometimes the barrier is the exact thing keeping weak competitors out. Most people quit before the harvest. They stop before the compounding starts. They abandon the plan right before the momentum gets real. High-level operators play a different game. They think in years. They build reserves. They stay emotionally steady. They keep executing while everyone else gets distracted. Because the last one standing often wins the board. True wealth is not built by chasing every short-term opportunity. It is built by holding the line long enough for the strategy to mature. Stay in the game. Trust the timeline. Outlast the competition. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Wil sits down with 30-year restaurant veteran and author Lance Reynolds for a candid conversation about the realities of independent restaurant ownership. Lance shares his unlikely origin story, going from janitor to owner of the very same restaurant, and opens up about nearly losing everything when he overextended on a fourth location, plus the vulnerability it took to ask for help and turn things around. The two dig into what actually drives restaurant success: putting employees first, delivering genuine hospitality, telling your story, and embracing technology and AI to free up time for the human connection that makes local restaurants irreplaceable. With independent restaurants facing record closures, Lance offers practical, hard-won advice on reducing employee turnover, training effectively, managing your numbers, and using tools like AI and voice technology to survive and thrive in a tough economy.Top 10 Key TakeawaysYou don't have to fail to succeed. Lance learned everything the hard way through pain and near-bankruptcy. His mission now is helping operators skip the worst lessons through mentorship, books, and education.Ask for help, it's not weakness. Lance came within days of losing four restaurants and 177 jobs. The turning point was swallowing his ego, admitting he didn't know how to build a P&L, and asking for guidance.It's not about the food. Skilled farm-to-table chefs go out of business daily. Business acumen, systems, and hospitality are what separate survivors from casualties.People-first is the secret sauce. Lance runs on a three-legged stool: employee experience, guest experience, then bottom line, in that order. The financial success is a byproduct of getting the first two right.Turnover is a profit killer. Replacing a line employee costs roughly $4,500 to $6,000, and a manager runs $12,000 to $15,000. Investing in people up front changes the entire financial picture.Training drives retention. The more you train employees, the longer they stay. Well-trained teams build trust, and people don't leave environments they trust.Independent restaurants are community first responders. From hurricanes to wildfires, local restaurants show up with food, time, and money. If they vanished, local economies would collapse in weeks.AI is a game-changer most operators are ignoring. In Lance's talks, fewer than 5% of owners are intentionally using AI. He demonstrates live how it can generate specials, recipes, training, pricing, and social content in minutes.Technology should elevate hospitality, not replace it. Tools like voice AI (e.g., Virnika) and video training platforms automate behind-the-scenes work so staff can focus on guests, and they're not eliminating jobs, just reallocating talent.Tell your story. Sharing why your restaurant exists creates emotional connection with employees and guests alike. A chain's Achilles heel is local, intimate knowledge, so lean into it.

Some stories grip you because of the storm. Others stay with you because of what comes after.New York Times bestselling author John U. Bacon has written more than a dozen books from leadership lessons drawn from coaching America's worst high school hockey team, to Michigan classics to his latest, The Gales of November, the untold story behind the Edmund Fitzgerald and the brutal, invisible world of Great Lakes shipping.In this episode, John and I cover a lot of ground: what makes a leader worth following, why disaster is almost never one thing, the Colin Powell quote every boss should keep close, and why first drafts are supposed to stink. We talk about Bo Schembechler's secret superpower (it wasn't yelling), the wild west of college football today, and the parenting wisdom of getting out of the way and letting the kids play their own game.We also share a tender moment about my parents who sat in John's University of Michigan classroom in retirement and lived a curiosity-first chapter that still shapes how I move through the world.If you're navigating a curveball, building something new, raising kids, or just trying to figure out what to keep and what to let go… this one's for you.johnubacon.compaigekornblue.com

Your clients don’t want a portfolio manager. They want someone who’ll catch them when they fall. That’s the truth most advisors are too busy chasing alpha to hear, and it’s exactly why Duncan MacPherson sits down with industry legend Steve Sandusky in this episode. Steve climbs mountains, and he’s spent decades teaching advisors that the most important rope in their practice isn’t tied to the markets. It’s the belay: the quiet discipline of holding the line so your client can keep climbing without fear of the fall. Get that right and you stop selling advice. You become the first call when life cracks open. Duncan and Steve unpack “Return on Life,” the framework reshaping the profession by measuring success not in basis points but in a client’s freedom, time, and meaning. They get into why story and symbolism build trust faster than any performance chart, how celestial navigation can steady clients (and you) when the markets blur, and what it takes to build a practice the AI tsunami can’t touch. Key takeaways: Using story and symbolism to forge trust that compounds Designing a purpose-driven practice that ages well Pricing human judgment in an AI-saturated market Knowing when to lean into technology and when to put it down Finding your North Star when every client is asking, “What now?” If you’re done competing on returns and ready to compete on meaning, this episode is the map.

This message speaks to the tension we all feel—the pull of our past versus the promise of our future. Rooted in Isaiah 43:18 and Luke 4, it reminds us that God is doing a new thing, and our past doesn't get the final say. As Jesus stood in Nazareth, seen only as "Joseph's son," He chose to walk in the truth of who He was called to be. And we're invited to do the same. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we learn to believe differently, speak life over our future, see through God's perspective, and live in daily freedom. The past may try to define us—but we are called to walk through it, not stay in it. In God's hands, our story is not our limitation—it's the beginning of transformation.
