In this engaging conversation, Stephanie Czerwinski and Katie Finch, Co-Owners of Palmetto Women's Collective, share with host Erin Kienzle how their group began. They recognized a need for a faith-based women's community that could support and nurture both the personal and professional lives of its members. As a result, the collective fosters genuine connections, offering a supportive environment for personal interaction, prayer, and encouragement, alongside valuable business support through networking. Many of these connections happen around a table where women share meals or coffee and discuss their experiences with the group. While the collective includes business owners and women in various professions, it also warmly welcomes stay-at-home mothers, whom they aptly describe as the "CEOs of their households." The group's members primarily reside in Mount Pleasant and Daniel Island, with a growing presence in Summerville, Johns Island, and even stretching up the coast to Myrtle Beach. Tune in to discover the details of their meeting locations, the nature of their interactions during gatherings, and other fascinating aspects of the Palmetto Women's Collective.

Gus Herlong is the CEO and Co-owner of Palmetto Garage Works, a multi-location auto service franchise group based in South Carolina. Starting with five distressed Midas stores in Columbia, he has grown the company to 34 locations across multiple states. His leadership has earned him recognition including the Tire Business Humanitarian of the Year Award, the IFA Franchisor of the Year Award, and the Midas Franchisee of the Year Award. Gus is also a key voice in the Midas dealer network, having served on the IMDA Board and as an advisor to Midas Corporate. In this episode… The automotive service industry is evolving rapidly, with franchise owners navigating shifting markets, NIL marketing trends, and workforce development. Many operators are finding success not just through expansion, but by creating deeper community ties and developing leadership within their teams. How can shop owners grow their businesses while staying grounded in their values and mission? According to Gus Herlong of Palmetto Garage Works, success comes from embracing hands-on leadership, learning from early failures, and staying deeply involved with both the community and team. From starting as an oil change tech to leading a 34-location franchise group, Gus has turned setbacks into stepping stones while investing in staff growth and community partnerships. He also uses NIL marketing with local college athletes to stand out in a competitive industry. On this episode of Gain Traction, Mike Edge welcomes Gus Herlong for a conversation about grassroots leadership, overcoming early business failures, and building a company culture that values authenticity and service.

I've got a PhD in stupid ideas.” “If the community trusts me with their cars, I need to be reinvesting in them too.” “Most people don't wish they were where I was — they wish they were where I am.” “My wife's been a saint — half our anniversary trips have been disguised store visits!” Action Steps: Embrace hands-on leadership: Don't be afraid to work shoulder-to-shoulder with your team to understand ground-level needs.

It's Thursday, April 3rd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark 46 physical attacks on Christians in Israel last year Attacks on Christians in Israel increased last year according to a report from the Rossing Center for Education and Dialogue. Christians in Israel suffered 111 attacks in 2024, including 46 physical attacks. The report noted, “The most common form of physical harassment is spitting—a long-standing issue that has escalated from subtle incidents to openly aggressive acts. Clergy are now regularly harassed in public spaces.” Perpetrators are generally Jewish young men from ultra-Orthodox circles. Chinese saber-rattling against Taiwan prompting Christians to pray The Chinese military carried out large-scale drills around Taiwan on Tuesday. China claims self-ruled Taiwan as a breakaway province and has not ruled out force to bring it under Beijing's control. Such saber-rattling has left many in Taiwan uneasy. But Christians across the island nation are uniting in prayer for revival, unity, repentance, and protection. People are praying every day for 24 hours a day. The number of prayer groups has reached 40,000 with about five members per group. Brian Liu, Pastor at Shekinah House of Bread of Life, spoke to CBN News, LIU: “The united prayers and fasting prayers of the churches in Taiwan are much more than ever before. It's an unprecedented prayer movement.” 2 Chronicles 7:14 says, “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” Republicans win two Florida congressional seats In the United States, Republicans won special elections on Tuesday for two Florida congressional districts. Former state Sen. Randy Fine won the open U.S. House seat in Florida's 6th Congressional District, replacing Mike Waltz who is now President Donald Trump's national security adviser. And Republican Jimmy Patronis won the state's 1st Congressional District which was previously held by former Rep. Matt Gaetz. The victories maintain the GOP's slim majority in the U.S. House of Representatives. Democrats won Wisconsin Supreme Court seat However, Democrats won a Supreme Court race in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Democrat-backed judge Susan Crawford defeated Trump-backed judge Brad Schimel 55% to 45%. Crawford previously served as an attorney for Planned Parenthood. She fought against a law for women's safety which would have required abortion mills to have hospital admitting privileges. And Crawford fought against a law that would have prevented women from being coerced into abortion. Her victory maintains a liberal majority on the court which may hear important cases on abortion and congressional maps and redistricting. Specifically, Democrats are eager to insert a so-called right to abortion in the Wisconsin Constitution and redistrict previously safe Republican districts into Democrat ones, ensuring that Trump will lose his slim House majority which would deep-six his legislative agenda. Kelsey Pritchard, Communications Director of the pro-life Women Speak Out PAC, said, “Republican voters should heed this race as a warning on becoming complacent following the wins last November. “We must be engaged as we enter the mid-terms and show up to the polls next year so that the Trump administration's progress is not reversed. Otherwise, Democrats will fulfill the abortion lobby's agenda for the elimination of parental rights and all-trimester abortion funded by the taxpayer.” It was the most expensive judicial race in U.S. history with over $90 million spent. That included $20 million from tech billionaire Elon Musk for Brad Schimel. South Carolina eager to end Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood The U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments in an abortion funding case yesterday. The state of South Carolina is trying to end Medicaid funding for abortion giant Planned Parenthood. The Palmetto state has the support of the Trump administration and 18 other states. Alliance Defending Freedom is representing South Carolina in the case. John Bursch, their Senior Counsel, said, “Taxpayer dollars should never be used to fund facilities that profit off abortion and distribute dangerous gender-transition drugs to minors.” Wyoming no longer requires homeschoolers to get gov't approval Back at the end of February, Wyoming's Republican Governor Mark Gordon signed the Homeschool Freedom Act into law. Homeschool families in the state are no longer required to notify or check in with the government to educate their children. Wyoming is the 12th state in the nation to end such requirements and the first to do so by legislation. The Home School Legal Defense Association supported the bill. Christian astronaut trusted God despite 9-month delay in space And finally, a Christian astronaut shared his story with CBN News after being stuck in space for nine months. NASA Astronaut Barry Wilmore was planning for an eight-day mission to the International Space Station last year. But technical complications delayed his return until last month. Wilmore said God's sovereignty sustained him during the extended journey. He even led church devotionals while in orbit and sang “Amazing Grace” with fellow astronauts. He said he trusted God's plan. WILMORE: “The Lord's plan and His purpose. I'm okay with it. Whatever. Is it my plan? No, but my plans are not usually the good plans, are the right plans. And the Lord's [plans] always are, regardless of what takes place. God's word is clear, and I believe it because I've lived it. God is always good.” Romans 8:28 says, “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, April 3rd, in the year of our Lord 2025.

“If you're a brewer and you're not making things that you really want to make, or things you want to experiment with and learn more about, then what are you brewing for,” asks James Herrholz, Chief Creative Officer for Corporate Ladder Brewing (https://www.corporateladderbrewing.com) in Palmetto, Florida. While some may feel “forced” to brew crowd-pleasing adjunct-laden stouts, Herrholz signed on for the challenge, and approaches the style with zeal and a drive to make the very best. Over the past six years, he's seen incredible results from this dogged and open-minded focus—three GABF medals, including a gold in 2022, while the brewery has maintained its spot on Untappd as the highest-rated brewery in the state of Florida. In this episode, Herrholz maps out their approach to pastry stout (barrel-aged and not), and along the way he touches on: using three primary base recipes to adjust for sweetness, roast, and caramel depth building ranging malt bills with as many as 15 to 18 different malts using SRM as a proxy for bitterness when considering dark malt impact on recipes managing the impact of dextrose in adjunct ingredients splitting different malts between multiple mashes while using long boils to increase Maillard flavors promoting attenuation through oxygenation, over pitching, and staging sugar additions maximizing extraction through “spinning” while adding adjuncts in bags in brite tanks flavor and aroma variations in vanilla due to origin and crop year variations And more.

Strep Zoo, a bacterial infection, can cause severe respiratory distress, nasal discharge, and rapid health decline in dogs, potentially leading to death without timely antibiotic treatment. The center stopped adoptions and is collaborating with the Georgia Department of Agriculture to prevent further spread. Pet owners are advised to watch for symptoms and seek immediate veterinary care if needed. The shelter remains open for pet reclaims and intake of sick or aggressive animals. STORY 3: Buford to host Holiday Festival and Parade on Saturday The Buford Business Alliance is hosting its annual Buford Holiday Festival and Parade on Saturday along Buford's Historic Main Street. The parade, featuring over 50 entries including the Buford Band of Wolves and Santa in a vintage red truck, starts at 9 a.m. and ends at the festival grounds at 301 East Main Street. The festival runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and includes holiday shopping, food trucks, performances, and a free Kids' Zone with bounce houses, a balloon artist, and caricature drawings.

Wanted for three counts of attempted murder, Williams was located using Flock cameras after being linked to a black SUV in the area. When police attempted a traffic stop, Williams fled, leading to an 80 mph chase. Officers performed a PIT maneuver near Duluth Highway, stopping the vehicle and arresting him. Williams faces charges including felony fleeing, reckless driving, driving on a suspended license, and more. He was checked for injuries before being booked into the Gwinnett County Jail. STORY 5: Gwinnett Police Remind Residents To Take Precautions After Coyote Sightings Gwinnett County police are advising residents to stay cautious following multiple coyote sightings in the area. To ensure safety, they recommend removing food sources like pet food and birdseed from yards, keeping small pets indoors or supervised when outside, and always leashing dogs. Residents are encouraged to contact Gwinnett Animal Welfare at 770-339-3200 for concerns or unusual coyote activity. Officials noted that while coyotes are common, attacks on humans are rare, with most reports involving sightings. Break 3: STORY 6: Ossoff grills postmaster general over continuing delays in mail delivery U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff criticized Postmaster General Louis DeJoy for failing to meet his pledge to restore on-time mail delivery in Georgia, which remains at 75%. The delays began after a new mail distribution center in Palmetto opened last year, with issues arising from a postal restructuring plan aimed at financial self-sufficiency. DeJoy admitted to ongoing challenges, despite promising improvements within 60 days. Ossoff highlighted the severe impacts on seniors awaiting prescriptions, small businesses, and timely delivery of critical notices. DeJoy defended the three-day target for mail delivery, while Ossoff urged for better performance. STORY 7: Brookwood Football Parts Ways with Head Coach Philip Jones Brookwood High School has parted ways with head football coach Philip Jones after 10 seasons. Jones, an alum and former team captain of the 1996 state championship team, led the Broncos to the playoffs eight times, including a Final Four appearance in 2017. His deep ties to the program include playing and coaching under Brookwood legends and continuing his father's legacy as a longtime coach. Despite dealing with health struggles this past season, Jones' impact is widely recognized. The school will now start a nationwide search for a new coach to build on Brookwood's proud traditions and history of success.

Meet Tahn Palmetto Theravada Buddhism--the Thai Forest Tradition Our dear colleague, Jason Meno, generously invited five high-profile Buddhist monks / teachers, to appear on our Feeling Good Podcast, hoping we could feature one every week during our "Enlightenment Month." He included his dear friend and ordained Buddhist monk, Tahn Palmetto. Happily, Tahn accepted Jason's invitation, and we are thrilled to chat with him today about his feelings of depression as a young man in the army to his search for happiness and peace through meditation. Tahn began his journey when we was young, 20 or 21 years old. After he enlisted in the army, he was lying on the floor, staring at the ceiling and realized he was depressed. He also realized that he didn't actually want to go to war, and saw that the best of good intentions often lead to pretty terrible outcomes. Jason and David described the basis of cognitive therapy, confirmed in Jason's recent research on meditation, that the degree of upset from any negative thought depends on how strongly you believe it to be true. Tahn said he also realized that his negative feelings did not depend so much on what he was doing, but how much he believed his thoughts. He got out of the army and searched for spiritual teachers, and eventually settled on Theravada Buddhism, also known as the Thai Forest Tradition. He said, “I found that you can have a lifestyle that triggers feelings of unhappiness, and committed my life to achieving happiness and peace.” He said that some people who come to the monastery discover that they don't want to commit themselves to the monastic life, and some commit to it but do it poorly. He said that your commitment will depend on how strongly you want to feel happy and enlightened. Believing that this is possible requires a paradigm switch. It is possible to have a mind that is clear, but even on a clear day, there will be clouds. The clouds, however, are only temporary. Our suffering comes and goes. If you twist your knee, it may hurt for life. But if you have a cold, you can recover completely. Even in a monastery, people have their squabbles. Within the Buddhist practice, Than explained that it is important to try to identify the disease and only then prescribe the effective treatment. Jason mentioned that some people come to the monastery but leave feeling hopeless. Others stay and are successful. Tahn explained that in Asia it is common for someone to enter the monastic life for a brief period, for example when they are experiencing grief. He said that if you grieve over the loss of a loved one, time alone will heal your grief, and once the suffering is relieved, they leave the monastic life. Rhonda asked if mindfulness meditation could be harmful to some people. Tahn explained that mindfulness does not cause negative feelings, but often reveals the presence of negative feelings. If you have a condition that prevents you from experiencing enlightenment, the condition is getting in the way. Sometimes the practice will give you the stability and the peace of mind to deal with it. If you come to the practice of mindfulness or the study of Buddhism for the wrong reasons, you might stay for the right reasons. If it does not work or help, you can always seek some other type of treatment. Tahn explained that mindfulness or Buddhism addresses unhappiness caused by mental or physical pain, and that people are often surprised by how it helps them. He believes that mindfulness meditation is “the thing” that treats someone's stress. It treats the “dukka,” which is a fundamental Buddhist teaching that refers to (according to the internet) the “suffering” or “unhappiness” of life. It is one of the first “noble truths” of Buddhism; namely, that suffering cannot be avoided. Apparently dukka comes in three flavors: Physical and emotional pain and discomfort Suffering from the inability to accept change The profound dissatisfaction of existence. Tahn said that you develop greater resources when you meditate. Then you may have extra resources to help others: You learn to deal with everybody's stuff. You learn to be aware of your body. This is your perspective for everything you do. It makes me happy to think about my eyeballs. When I meditate on this, it becomes funny, and I laugh. Tahn suggested that when you meditate, you learn to be aware of your body, because that is the center point of your world. This is your perspective on everything that is going on in the world. When you become aware of your body and what it is doing, you know the context of everything in your life. What does his day look like? Tahn said: I answer emails, I troubleshoot problems. Lately we've had a problem with scorpions. But we don't try to kill them. Tahn talked about how Buddhism defines Truth as reality, and that the definition of happiness is “non-suffering.” There are three patterns that lead to unhappiness: Attachment, which he defined as greed and desire, especially when you seek some external object(s). An extreme example would be disregarding the needs of others or even endangering others to get the object of your desires, or an attitude of only wanting or caring for things that you like or want. Aversion which refers to feelings of aggression, anger, and hatred. Aversion's opposite is loving kindness. When we experience Aversion, we push away (usually aggressively) the things that we dislike. If we allow our ignorance to take over, we can conjure up hatred for the things that we dislike and the people we see as blocking our desires. We saw from the meditation experiment that Jason described last week, how meditating on loving kindness brought about a reduction in people's negative thoughts. Ignorance refers to delusion, confusion and dullness. Ignorance defuses understanding serving to confuse you and prevent you from doing something functional. This can be experienced as an inability to see the truth or reality of ourselves or the world around us. Asking questions like “Am I real” is the basis of the first two in this list. Tahn also discussed how the mind precedes the thoughts. Then we talked about the concept of the Self, in that we think that we exist. However, there is no stable “I.” All we find are temporary phenomena. For example, you don't need to have a “self” to drive to a picnic. All you need is a car and a tank of gas. The group discussed the Buddhist concept of “laughing enlightenment.” Thank you for listening today! Tahn, Jason, Rhonda, and David
