What if the fear you've been carrying is actually pointing you toward your next breakthrough?In this episode of the Visibly Fit Podcast, I sit down with my friend Justin Maina, also known as the Fear Hunter. This conversation was completely unplanned, Spirit-led, and honestly one of my favorites.Justin shares how he went from being deeply insecure and fearful to stepping onto the American Ninja Warrior course—without ever watching the show before he was selected. We talk about what it means to face obstacles you can't rehearse for, how fear and perfectionism often work together to keep us stuck, and why faith requires movement even when clarity feels incomplete.We also connect the dots between physical health, mindset, and spiritual endurance. When we care for our bodies—the temple that houses the Holy Spirit—we're able to show up stronger, serve others better, and live out our calling with greater confidence. Justin offers powerful analogies from Ninja Warrior, practical wisdom for breaking limiting beliefs, and encouragement for anyone who feels stuck in “analysis paralysis.”This episode is filled with insight, laughter, faith, and real-life application. And yes… stay until the end. There is a backflip.

Hubble Network is redefining what's possible in satellite connectivity by connecting standard Bluetooth chips to satellites over 500 kilometers away using advanced antenna arrays and digital beamforming. Founded in 2021 by Alex Haro (co-founder of Life360, which IPO'd in 2019 and grew to 80+ million monthly active users) and Ben Longmier (whose previous company's protocol became Amazon Sidewalk after acquisition), Hubble has launched seven operational satellites via SpaceX and is serving enterprise customers across intermodal logistics, off-grid construction, and outdoor recreation. In a recent episode of BUILDERS, I sat down with Alex to explore how Hubble is building the infrastructure layer for global IoT—positioning as the "T-Mobile of space" rather than competing in device markets. Topics Discussed: The technical architecture behind connecting Bluetooth to satellites: lowering bit rates, optimizing modulation, and deploying hundreds of antennas for digital beamforming SpaceX's rideshare program mechanics and what it actually takes to book satellite launches as a startup Why Hubble deliberately chose to be network infrastructure rather than building hardware for specific verticals The psychology barrier of overcoming Bluetooth's short-range association—even among experienced RF engineers from Google, Amazon, and Starlink Strategic focus decisions when facing unlimited market opportunity across construction, agriculture, mining, logistics, and defense Transparent pricing as a developer-first GTM strategy versus traditional enterprise carrier sales models The transition from Life360's consumer hardware exploration to founding a satellite networking company GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Choose your competitive layer strategically—infrastructure scales differently than applications: Hubble explicitly positioned as network infrastructure, not a device manufacturer. Alex stated: "We're not focused on building the hardware or devices. We very much view ourselves as a networking company." This allows enterprise customers to integrate Hubble connectivity into their existing devices with just a software change to the Bluetooth chip. The result: each B2B customer can deploy hundreds or thousands of devices to their end users, creating exponential reach. For founders building horizontal technology, consider whether competing at the infrastructure layer—even if less immediately tangible—creates superior unit economics and market leverage versus building full-stack solutions. Developer-first positioning requires operational commitment, not just marketing: Hubble's pricing transparency wasn't a marketing tactic—Alex described it as "hardcore to our ethos" because their goal is connecting billions of devices. They explicitly modeled after Twilio and Stripe rather than Verizon or AT&T, making it possible for engineers to validate unit economics independently and start free trials without sales conversations. This wasn't debated internally because both co-founders and the early team aligned on this approach. For infrastructure companies targeting massive scale, half-measures on developer experience will fail—the entire go-to-market motion must support self-service validation and transparent economics. Constraint forces clarity—unlimited TAM demands disciplined ICP filtering: Despite viable use cases across construction, oil and gas, mining, agriculture, supply chain, and defense, Alex emphasized: "In the early stages, focus is the most important thing. Every hour matters and being able to focus matters quite a bit and defocusing yourself can really hurt." Hubble's "sexy hook of Bluetooth to space" generates inbound interest across industries, creating constant pressure to expand. Their active debate centers on which industry leaders are "solving important use cases" with existing customer bases of "hundreds, if not thousands of customers." For founders with horizontal technology, resist opportunistic deals—filter aggressively for partners who provide concentrated distribution rather than one-off deployments. Physical demonstration collapses credibility timelines for counterintuitive technology: Hubble faced skepticism even from sophisticated RF engineers because of hardwired associations between Bluetooth and short range. Alex noted: "Some of the investors that joined our A or B, they passed on our seed and A because they thought, well, I believe in Alex, but is this really physically possible?" Post-launch with working satellites, the conversation shifted from "is this possible?" to commercial terms. The lesson isn't just "show don't tell"—it's that for technically improbable innovations, rushing to demonstrable proof compresses months of explanation into minutes of validation. Founders should potentially sacrifice feature breadth to reach a single, undeniable proof point faster. Operational domain expertise reveals infrastructure gaps others can't see: Alex spent years as CTO of Life360 attempting to build connected hardware for families—smart pet collars, GPS watches for kids, fall detectors—but existing networks had "super short battery life, very bulky, no global coverage, way too expensive." He invested in Ben's previous mesh network company and became a close advisor before co-founding Hubble. The insight wasn't theoretical—it came from failing repeatedly to solve the problem with existing infrastructure. Founders should treat operational frustrations in previous roles as proprietary market intelligence: you've already paid the learning cost that competitors will need years to acquire. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

He Overcame the Darkness So We Can Be the Light | Advent 2025 | John 1:1-18 by CityLight Church

ShownotesWhen we lose a loved one, we can often feel like we've lost a piece of ourselves. We might even feel like we've lost our identity because so much of who we were was tied to our loved one, whether it was as a wife, a mother, son, or daughter. How can we begin to figure out who we are without that person in our lives and, more importantly, who we are in God's eyes? Our GuestDr. Jerry Woodbridge is a Christian author, grief advocate, and educator with over 40 years of classroom experience. After losing her husband unexpectedly, she began writing faith-based books to help children and families navigate grief—including Joy Overcame Sorrow, a touching children's story told from a 10-year-old's perspective, and Joy's Journal, a companion guide for emotional healing. Jerry blends personal insight, educational expertise, and deep faith to support grieving families in rediscovering joy.Dr. Woodbridge's Social Media LinksWebsite: drjerrylwoodbridge.com Blog: https://jerrylwoodbridge.blog/ Amazon Author PageLinkedIn: Dr. Jerry WoodbridgeFacebook: facebook.com/jerry.woodbridge.7Instagram: @jerrywoodbridge7YouTube: @jerrywoodbridge1749LinksParenting Teens: Advice Redefined for Today's Complex World: "Navigating Teen Grief When Parents Grieve" with Dr. Jerry WoodbridgeWidowed 2 Soon; Advice on Faith, Mental Health, and Dating Again: 183-Caring for Widows and Children: With Dr. Jerry Woodbridge on Grief ResourcesSaved & Strong Podcast: Joy Overcame Sorrow with Dr. Jerry WoodbridgeGod Attachment Healing: Finding Joy Amid Loss: A Christian Perspective on Grief w/ Dr. Jerri WoodbridgeJoy Overcame Sorrow Book Trailer ScripturePsalm 10:14 (Scripture about the fatherless)Isaiah 25:8 He will swallow up death forever.

Did you know that in Australia, athletes are at a higher risk of developing disordered eating? In fact, research shows that depending on the sport and level of competition, anywhere from 0 to 19% of male athletes, and 6 to 45% of female athletes, may experience disordered eating or an eating disorder. These numbers are not small—and they remind us that behind the strength, discipline, and performance we admire, many athletes are silently struggling.Source: Eating Disorders Org.

Leland Vittert is one of America's most recognizable television correspondents. You'll know his face from years of frontline reporting in places like Egypt, Libya, Israel, and Ukraine.  You may have followed his tumultuous exit from Fox News in 2021, after clashing with the network over its coverage of Donald Trump—and then his redemption arc, becoming the host of On Balance and the chief Washington anchor at NewsNation.  But what you might not know is that Leland is autistic. He just wrote a book about it, called Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, a Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism. In it, Leland explains that he didn't talk until age 3, was born severely cross-eyed, and struggled with basic concepts like eye contact, humor, conversation cues, and social rules. Middle school and high school were nothing short of hell.  So how did the kid we just described go from, as he says, “socially lost” to one of America's most recognizable and charismatic voices? Training. Relentless, nonstop work. His father knew the world wouldn't change for Leland—Leland would have to change for the world. It is a moving memoir about how Leland—and most notably, his father—worked to “beat” his autism. You'll have to read it to understand how. Leland was diagnosed about 40 years ago. Since then, conversation has shifted dramatically—and so have rates of diagnoses. In the 1980s, about one in 1,000 American children were diagnosed with autism. Today, it's one in 31. The questions of what causes autism and how we treat it have become so politicized that the conversation has left people either resentful, anxious, confused, or scared. And most critically, still without answers.  Born Lucky is landing at an especially interesting moment given that the Trump administration has put the topic of autism at center stage. Just last week, Trump held a press conference where he alleged that there was a link between the active ingredient in Tylenol and autism, and told mothers not to take the pain reliever and fever reducer and instead “tough it out.”  That's among the many things Leland and I talk about in this fascinating conversation.  Header 6: The Free Press earns a commission from any purchases made through all book links in this article.

In this compelling episode of *American Potential*, host David From sits down with Kayla Frank and Echo Kopplin, two dedicated physician associates from South Dakota who led the charge to pass a groundbreaking bill removing the requirement for physician oversight in PA practice. They share the years of perseverance, grassroots advocacy, and strategic relationship-building that finally broke down regulatory red tape, enabling PAs to practice with greater autonomy and flexibility. The conversation dives deep into the challenges they faced within a complex political environment and how they maintained a positive, patient-focused message to overcome opposition. Kayla and Echo also explore the broader impact of this legislation on healthcare access, especially in rural and underserved areas of South Dakota, where physician shortages make autonomous PA practice vital. They discuss how the change levels the playing field with nurse practitioners, reduces administrative burdens, and allows healthcare teams to better tailor their models to local community needs. This episode offers a powerful example of American grassroots advocacy in action and highlights how removing unnecessary barriers can expand healthcare access and improve outcomes for all.
