Today's episode is a video solocast. Rather than just listening to it, watching it on my YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@melonybrown is suggested.Throughout 2025, God's been teaching me about the importance of maintaining a healthy spiritual posture. Episode 117, titled STAND FIRM, I shared about the posture of standing firm. The visual image of a hiking boot reminds us that the Holy Spirit empowers us to stand firm when challenges intersect our path. Episode 127, titled LEANING ON GOD, I shared about the posture of leaning on God. The visual image of hiking poles reminds us with our entire personality we can trust, rely on, and confidently lean because God rescues, delivers, and saves us during our trials.Holding on to expectant hope is another posture God has been teaching me about this year.According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, hope is cherishing a desire with anticipation or wanting something to happen or be true. While this modern definition of hope is accurate, it falls short of fully defining the hope believers have when they accept and follow Jesus. I shared the Greek meanings of hope and expectant. When I prayed about the visual image that could represent expectant hope, the Holy Spirit brought to mind a cup.Yes, the visual image for expectant hope will be a cup. I shared what I learned about the promises in Exodus 6 that are connected to the four cups of the Passover Seder.Is there a fifth promise and a fifth cup?I shared the Greek meaning of overflow. Notable quotes:· The Holy spirit doesn't just fill you with a drop or two of hope. Nor does He fill you till you're full of hope. He fills you to overflowing with hope!· The four promises or four cups were for the Israelites. But they are for us too! When you accepted Jesus and committed to live your life for Him: He set you apart as His own. He rescued you from bondage, oppression, and sin. He forgave your sins and reconciled you to God. He desires to have a relationship with you.· Expectant hope is an active, faith-filled posture of confidence and a Spirit-filled expectation that God WILL fulfill His promises.Bible verses:· Romans 15:13· Matthew 26:39· Exodus 6:6-8· Luke 22”17-18· I share 12 verses of God's promises that can fill us with expectant hope.· Lamentations 3:21 fight verse for expectant hopeSend me a COMMENT or QUESTION!THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!

When we recorded this show the day before James flew out to Baku, we did not expect Williams to be up on the podium delivering in real life what James was theoretically describing to us on the show. Podiums are of course part of the development plan, but not yet. When James came to see us at Business of Sport HQ last week, we talked through both what he has done to position the team for future success, and what he still needs to do. In a sport that requires so many minds pulling together, utilising a vast array of talents, the prospect of building what is popularly termed as ‘winning culture' could seem daunting; where do you even start? For James, it was recognising that even in a sport of technology and science, people and culture are what makes you win. This weekend's result would place Williams ahead of where James has set expectations. But don't get me wrong, this result in Baku will have been celebrated in the halls of Grove, because no matter how long term the strategy for success is, these wins you pick up on the way are integral to showing the team that what they're doing is on the right path, and from James' perspective (though he'd never look at it like this) that he's the man to deliver for them. This is James Vowles on the business of Williams and F1…and a taste of what's to come.Timestamps:00:00 Intro03:54 Rebuilding Williams Through Culture07:18 Balancing Past Success with a New Identity10:54 Williams' Long-Term Plan for Success17:31 What Vowles Brings to Sainz & Albon22:35 Can Money Alone Deliver F1 Success?25:22 Does Losing Money Matter in F1 Ownership?28:23 Turning Heavy Investment Into Performance30:45 Williams' New Revenue Streams34:25 How Teams Compete for the Same Sponsors37:37 Will Formula 1 Control Its Own Platform41:30 Overcoming Challenges as a New Team Principal46:10 The Mediafication of F1 Leadership47:30 Quick-Fire RoundIn Today's Episode We Discuss:1. Rebuilding Williams from the Ground Up:Why James left the comfort of Mercedes to take on the challenge of reviving one of Formula One's most historic but struggling teams.How he discovered Williams was “a bankrupt organisation” on arrival and why he likens it to running a 50-year-old startup.The long-term plan to make Williams both competitive and profitable again by 2028, balancing heavy investment with financial disciplineHow James is instilling accountability, long-term thinking, and a “break everything” mindset to push the team beyond survival.2. The Culture of Performance:The importance of ego-free leadership from drivers like Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz in shaping a winning environmentThe real split between car and driver performance and why drivers remain the best “sensors” for development.What James learned from working with Schumacher, Rosberg, and Hamilton, and how those lessons are applied to Albon and Sainz today.Why humility, confidence, and resilience separate the very best drivers from the rest3. The Business of F1:The realities of cost caps, sponsorship, and commercial growth in modern F1.Why Williams' sponsorship strategy is about authentic partnerships, not stickers on a car and how deals like Atlassian reflect the team's values.James' candid view on asset values, media rights, and how F1 must evolve its broadcasting model to engage younger fans4. The Future of the Sport:Why two-day race weekends could be the future, and how unpredictability makes F1 compelling.His view on an 11th team, the balance of tradition versus innovation, and how Netflix and Drive to Survive changed the sport's global appeal.What excites him most about the years ahead: leaving a lasting legacy at Williams and returning the team to the front of the grid.A huge thank you to our amazing partners on the show:Stryde Bringing sports investment opportunities to your door.

Clay shares how he went from stacking lumber in his family's mill to struggling through his first months in sales—then finding success by selling authentically and building long-term relationships.

Navigating new seasons in our spiritual journey requires strength and courage, just as Joshua needed when leading Israel into the Promised Land. Growth often brings discomfort, but it's necessary for spiritual maturity. To successfully navigate these transitions, we must keep God's Word in our mouths, speaking life rather than complaints, and follow His presence even into unfamiliar territory. God sometimes ends one provision (like the manna) to move us toward something better. These challenging transitions are actually opportunities for deeper maturity and fruitfulness in our faith journey.Keep the Bible in your mouth - what we speak matters, especially during times of change and growth.Follow God's presence - just as the Israelites followed the Ark of the Covenant, we need to be led by the Spirit rather than our own preferences.When spiritual practices feel dry or stale, it may be God's way of pushing you into a new season of growth.Growth and change are often uncomfortable but necessary for spiritual maturity.Our faith is meant to be lived in community, not in isolation.Support the show

Build so much self-worth that you no longer need it.Step out of your comfort zone. It is the only place growth happens.Turn your pain into power. Use it as fuel, not an anchor.Define your purpose. Give yourself a reason to leap out of bed every morning.Choose to grow through life, not just go through it.

Mary Jackson - Overcoming Challenges and Being Yourself Raising kids that have special needs, like those on the Autism spectrum, can create both challenges and opportunities. Parents and teachers need to be more creative in how they communicate and teach kids, so they can learn in ways that work for them. Mary used art and music as a learning tool for her kids, using the rhythm and energy to educate them. She has watched them overcome challenges and become the best version of themselves. Kids don't need to struggle or believe that they are having problems because there is something wrong with them. They need to be empowered to try new things and go beyond what others may believe their limits are. Humans are sensory beings, and we need to tune into our own abilities. There is a balance in life that we can use to achieve happier, better lives! Join us, as Mary makes us question our own past experiences and shows how her lessons can help empower us all! www.AutismTN.org www.MaryEJackson.com Email: Mary@MaryEJackson.com Sponsors: American Gold Exchange Our dealer for precious metals & the exclusive dealer of Real Power Family silver rounds (which we finally got in!!!).

From building high-performing sales teams to balancing family life with professional growth, Brian shares insights on staying focused on “dollar productive activities” while cultivating a thriving culture and personal connections.Key TakeawaysDollar Productive ActivityBrian highlights how his early sales training around focusing on dollar-productive activities shaped both his professional and personal life. Whether closing sales or spending time with family, being intentional about high-value actions drives long-term results.CRM & Sales Process DisciplineDespite not being a “detail person,” Brian leans into CRM tools to manage opportunities, categorize customers, and keep sales teams accountable. He stresses that if you can keep all your prospects in your head, you're probably not doing enough activity.Scaling Teams & Building CultureGrowing from 7 to 40 team members in just a few years, Brian explains the importance of cadences—regular meetings, onboarding processes, and tough conversations to ensure cultural fit. Creating a space where passion aligns with purpose is essential for sustained success.Intentional Family TimeFrom playing chess with his son to CrossFit dates with his wife, Brian describes how intentionality extends beyond business into marriage and parenting. Simple, consistent actions—like Mark's “Daily Brief” practice with his wife—can have an outsized impact on relationships.Overcoming Challenges & WinsLeaving a long-term role in feed and forging into tech was one of Brian's toughest decisions, but it led to new opportunities and career wins. He shares stories of closing dairies of vastly different sizes and how objections become lessons when leveraged correctly.Books That Shape LeadershipBrian recommends Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara for transforming customer experience and Moneyball by Michael Lewis as a lesson in data-driven strategy and out-of-the-box thinking.Notable Quotes“What are you doing today that's truly driving toward the results you want?” – Brian Sanford“If you can keep your sales leads in your head, you're probably not doing enough activity.” – Brian Sanford“Sometimes the best thing you can do for culture is have the tough conversation: is this the right fit for you?” – Brian Sanford“Fear of letting go often costs more in money, time, and energy than the tough decision itself.” – Mark JewellAction StepsEvaluate your daily activities: are they “dollar productive”?Create intentional practices in your personal life (like shared activities or daily check-ins).Review your CRM discipline—are you documenting and leveraging your conversations effectively?Don't shy away from tough conversations when scaling a team.Consider reading Unreasonable Hospitality and Moneyball to reframe customer experience and strategic leadership.Listen If You AreA sales leader in agriculture or ag techAn entrepreneur growing a high-performing teamA professional balancing leadership with family lifeSomeone looking to refine both...
