Tax laws may not be flashy, but understanding them can tilt the balance for your family's finances and peace of mind. I'm digging into the details of the much-talked-about “One Big Beautiful Tax Bill”, a huge piece of tax legislation that's set to impact families, retirees, and investors across the country. I break down the most important highlights from the massive 870-page bill, focusing on what really matters for everyday listeners: permanent income tax brackets, bigger standard deductions, expanded SALT limits, and significant new deductions for seniors.  Tune in for clear, actionable insights on the changes coming to your taxes, and learn how to make these updates work in your favor. Outline of This Episode [04:27] Tax act extension highlights.[07:22] Inflation adjustment for tax brackets.[10:38] Tax deduction and SALT cap changes.[13:23] Maximize your deductions and minimize taxable income.[18:53] Estate tax and deductions update.[22:08] Permanent deductions and brackets.[23:45] Tax benefits for families. Tax Brackets and Standard Deduction: More Certainty, Bigger Benefits One of the most interesting aspects of the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) is the permanent extension of the income tax brackets Americans have become accustomed to since the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017. Instead of the cliff that was looming at the end of 2024, current rates (10%, 12%, 22%, 24%, and 32%) are now here to stay. This certainty means families, investors, and business owners can plan with clarity, knowing that the 10% and 12% brackets won't suddenly vanish. But there's more: in 2026, the 10% and 12% brackets will receive extra inflation adjustments, leading to a few hundred dollars of potential tax savings just for staying under those thresholds. While many American households may not climb out of the 12% bracket, those who do will benefit even more. Another major win is the increase in the standard deduction, now $31,500 for married couples filing jointly and $15,750 for single filers, starting in 2025. Add in automatic inflation adjustments, and the vast majority of taxpayers are now better off taking the standard deduction rather than itemizing, unless big deductions, like SALT, tilt the scale. The Expanded SALT Deduction Under OBBB, the State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction cap explodes from $10,000 to $40,000, restoring much of the pre-2017 advantage. For married couples with large property and state income taxes, this unlocks greater ability to itemize rather than default to the standard deduction. But this expanded cap begins phasing out for adjusted gross incomes above $500,000 and is gone by $600,000. Smart, ongoing tax planning, tracking income, maximizing deductions, and timing bonuses or retirement contributions can make the difference between using the full deduction or losing out. Enhanced Deductions for Those 65+ For retirees, the bill introduces a temporary enhanced standard deduction: if you're over 65, you can...

Kristie Jones — sales consultant, B2B SaaS expert, and author of "Selling Your Way In”- discovered that her best workouts aren't defined by the time of day, but by consistency. After long, sometimes challenging days at the sales office, Kristie prefers to “defrag” with evening exercise sessions, finding them the perfect way to unwind and recharge. Rather than chasing morning routines, she focuses on fitting in activity at least five days a week, motivated by the endorphin boost each session brings. For Kristie, the most important part of fitness is enjoying the process and staying consistent, no matter when it happens. Kristie shares why she believes that mental, physical, and spiritual well-being are essential for success in sales, and offers practical advice on building sustainable fitness habits, managing stress, and staying motivated through a disciplined routine. Whether you're a morning workout enthusiast or an evening exerciser, this conversation is packed with actionable tips to help you find your groove, maintain energy, and drive results in your sales career. Get ready to learn how taking care of your body can elevate your professional game! Outline of This Episode [00:00] The link between fitness and sales performance. [06:01] Silent workout struggles. [09:00] It doesn't matter WHEN you exercise, just that you do. [10:53] Holistic wellness through self-awareness. [15:38] Kristie's fitness insights for salespeople. [16:43] Be open to trying new athletic adventures. Translating Physical Wellness Into Greater Sales Results For Kristie Jones, the relationship between physical fitness and professional performance is all-encompassing. Fitness, she explains, tangibly fuels confidence, provides mental clarity, and promotes better sleep—all factors that directly impact sales professionals who need sharp minds and high energy to navigate demanding workdays. According to Kristie, cardio is the keystone. Having shifted from running to brisk walking (following several foot surgeries), she now relies on activities like four-mile-per-hour walks and hiking. This consistency in cardio, she says, keeps her mental and emotional health balanced, not just her physical stamina. Building Powerful Fitness Habits: It's All About Consistency While many believe morning workouts yield the highest consistency, Kristie challenges this stereotype, demonstrating that there's no one-size-fits-all approach. “I really enjoy the evening workout because I need to kind of defrag after a long day,” she explains. The real differentiator isn't the time of day, but consistency. Whether it's before sunrise, at lunch, or after work, what matters most is creating a regular rhythm you look forward to, at least five days a week. For Kristie, evening sessions allow her to unwind and release the day's stress productively. Both approaches highlight the importance of knowing yourself and designing routines that suit your lifestyle and natural rhythms. Fitness as Stress Management and Motivation Fuel Sales roles are notoriously high-pressure—chasing targets, facing rejections, and constantly performing at a high level. Kristie emphasizes that, for her, cardio is just as much about mental health as it is about physical fitness. During especially stressful periods, she'll even double up on walks to keep herself balanced. Exercising in nature—what the Japanese call shinrin-yoku, or forest bathing—brings another layer of emotional resilience and mental clarity. Being outdoors fosters problem-solving and introspection, even sparking solutions to work challenges. Prioritizing Fitness Amid Demanding Schedules A recurring obstacle for sales professionals is carving out time for self-care. With startups and sales teams priding themselves on marathon work weeks, personal well-being often gets sidelined. Kristie's solution is to be proactive and build fitness into your schedule by putting it in your calendar. Her commitment to scheduled fitness classes with penalties for no-shows creates the accountability needed to overcome excuses. Whether it's workouts in your calendar or fitting them in before the workday, systematizing self-care is critical. If you notice irritability, low motivation, or mounting stress, it's time for a reset—starting with sleep, nutrition, and movement. How Fitness Drives Sales Results Kristie's own journey—transitioning from team sports to competitive racquetball, and then running—showcases how cross-training and expanding physical competencies dramatically enhanced her competitive edge. Even now, integrating new fitness activities, like strength training or pickleball, keeps her engaged and discovering new strengths. Her advice is to be open to new athletic adventures. You might surprise yourself and discover routines that not only boost your sales performance but also bring new joy and fulfillment to your life. Sales success starts from within. Prioritizing fitness is not a luxury for sales professionals—it's a foundational pillar for clarity, energy, resilience, and long-term success. Whether you find your stride on a morning walk, mid-day hike, or post-work workout, commit to movement. Your clients, your numbers, and most importantly, your well-being, will thank you.

Summary: Consumers rejected genetically modified crops, and I expect they will do the same for cultivated meat. The meat lobby will fight to discredit the new technology, and as consumers are already primed to believe it's unnatural, it won't be difficult to persuade them. When I hear people talk about cultivated meat (i.e. lab-grown meat) and how it will replace traditional animal agriculture, I find it depressingly reminiscent of the techno-optimists of the 1980s and ‘90s speculating about how genetic modification will solve all our food problems. The optimism of the time was understandable: in 1994 the first GMO product was introduced to supermarkets, and the benefits of the technology promised incredible rewards. GMOs were predicted to bring about the end of world hunger, all while requiring less water, pesticides, and land.Today, thirty years later, in the EU GM foods are so regulated that they are [...] ---Outline:(01:56) Why did GMOs fail to be widely adopted?(02:44) A Bad First Impression(05:54) Unpopular Corporate Concentration(07:22) Cultivated Meat IS GMO(08:45) What timeline are we in?(10:24) What can be done to prevent cultivated meat from becoming irrelevant?(10:30) Expect incredible opposition(11:46) Be ready to tell a clear story about the benefits.(13:17) A proactive PR Effort(15:01) First impressions matter(17:16) Labeling(19:35) Be ready to discuss concerns about unnaturalness(21:56) Limitations of the comparison(23:07) Conclusion--- First published: September 22nd, 2025 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/rMQA9w7ZM7ioZpaN6/cultivated-meat-a-wakeup-call-for-optimists --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:Apple Podcasts and Spotify do not show images in the episode description.

Barraclough describes the lava cave Surtshellir in Iceland, named after the fire giant Surtr, where new archaeological evidence has been found. Deep within the cave, a man-made wall and a stone outline shaped like a boat were discovered. Inside the boat, offerings associated with fire and burning (ornaments, jasper, burnt bones) were left, suggesting efforts to placate the fire being dwelling further inside the lava field, possibly after the major volcanic eruption around 900 AD. After Iceland officially converted to Christianity around 1000 AD, a final offering—a metal cross—was left in the cave, marking the transition away from this pagan ritual.

Intro and summary “How many chickens spared from cages is worth not being with my parents as they get older?!” - Me, exasperated (September 18, 2021) This post is about something I haven't seen discussed on the EA forum but I often talk about with my friends in their mid 30s. It's about something I wish I'd understood better ten years ago: if you are ~25 and debating whether to move to an EA Hub, you are probably underestimating how much the calculus will change when you're ~35, largely related to having kids and aging parents. Since this is underappreciated, moving to an EA Hub, and building a life there, can lead to tougher decisions later that can sneak up on you.

Whether it's treating workouts like crucial business meetings, overcoming the “no time” mindset, or learning the cognitive benefits of activities like pickleball, Bob's insights will inspire you to make small, sustainable changes that drive big results—both in your career and your well-being.  Outline of This Episode [00:00] Boost your energy and build resilience. [04:31] Fitness helps you stay focused under pressure. [06:09] Movement resets both mind and body. [08:24] Exercise is stress relief and motivation in all areas of life. [10:08] Three key ways to jumpstart your wellbeing as a sales professional.  [14:52] Prioritize fitness like you do your meetings. [16:28] Never separate health from work. Because your performance at work depends on your health. Why Fitness Is the Foundation of Sales Success What if the secret weapon to crushing your sales quota lies not just in scripts or CRM hacks, but in your next workout? Bob Woods makes a compelling case that fitness is far from a personal luxury—it's an absolute business necessity. Strength, he explains, goes beyond muscle—when you feel physically strong, you step into sales conversations with more confidence, show up stronger in meetings, and deliver higher-impact presentations. Business and fitness parallel each other: both require discipline, consistency, and progress through small, incremental actions that stack up to big wins over time. In short, physical fitness is not just a side hustle to your career; it's the keystone in your professional foundation. Habits That Supercharge Sales Performance What fitness practices actually boost daily energy and focus? Bob breaks down his top three: 1. Daily Movement Beyond gym sessions, Bob integrates rucking (walking with a weighted backpack) and pickleball into his routine. He's quick to add that even walking is a powerhouse habit when it comes to recharging mentally and physically. “Movement resets both mind and body,” he explains, underscoring that you don't need to run marathons to reap benefits. 2. Sleep and Hydration Often overlooked, Bob insists these basics are non-negotiable performance hacks. Quality sleep and staying hydrated fuel brainpower, motivation, and stamina—a trio every sales pro needs. 3. Block It Like a Business Meeting Bob's most actionable advice is to schedule workouts on your calendar as immutable appointments, just like you would a client call. Treat fitness as a non-negotiable business meeting, and communicate its importance to colleagues so others respect your boundaries. Stress Management, Motivation, and High-Level Performance Salespeople often grapple with intense stress, wavering motivation, and burnout. Exercise, Bob says, is a “pressure valve”—it physically releases tension and sparks endorphins, making you more resilient under high stakes. Consistency in fitness breeds momentum and motivation, which naturally overflow into your work. Bob's rule of thumb: “Without health, motivation is just willpower, and willpower alone eventually runs out.” Overcoming Common Challenges What holds sales professionals back from adopting healthier lifestyles? Bob identifies the three biggest pitfalls: "No Time" Mindset: The belief that there's no time for fitness is a myth. Start small, even with daily five-minute walks or minor dietary tweaks. All-or-Nothing Thinking: You don't need 90-minute workouts. Small, consistent efforts outperform sporadic heroic doses. Quick Fix Obsession: Ignore fad diets and fitness gadgets bombarding your social feeds. Stick to fundamentals and stay consistent for real, lasting change. Recognizing and Countering Burnout How do you spot the signs of burnout—like low energy, irritability, and declining performance—and what can you do? Bob's honest answer: take stock, admit the problem, and make incremental changes. Prioritize sleep, incorporate daily movement, and mind your nutrition and alcohol intake (especially if you live in bourbon country, like Bob!). Bob's story is powerful—he's lost 120 pounds over several years, a journey that radically transformed his business confidence and ability to show up for clients and colleagues. His improved fitness has scaled his professional performance while protecting him from burnout. Never separate health from work. Your job success is inextricably linked to your wellbeing—so treat your next walk or workout with the same gravity as a deal-closing call. Whether you're new to fitness or looking to level up, start with small, consistent actions and watch the professional results roll in.
