Wir sprechen über...  Konflikte - und das sie oft nicht das Ende sind, sondern ein Anfang sein können.Was es braucht, damit aus Konfrontation echte Verständigung wird.Welche Rolle Zuhören und Vertrauen in kritischen Prozessen spielt.Warum viele Führungskräfte sich in Krisen und bei  Entscheidungen oft einsam fühlen.Was Führungskräfte ganz praktisch tun können, um Konflikte nicht eskalieren zu lassen, sondern in Lösungen zu verwandeln.Interviewpartner: Henrik Lehnhardt, Business Coach, Mediator und Speaker. Im Interview: Henrik Lehnhardt Henrik Lehnhardt im Gespräch: Warum echte Lösungen leise beginnenEin Glas Wein, ein ehrliches Gespräch – und ein Millionenstreit war vorbei. Henrik Lehnhardt, ehemaliger HR-Direktor und heute Coach & Mediator, berichtet, wie Vertrauen und Zuhören selbst festgefahrene Konflikte lösen können. Er erzählt von seinen Erfahrungen in internationalen Restrukturierungen und warum Führung ohne Menschlichkeit nicht funktioniert.Seine Botschaft: „Wirkliche Lösungen entstehen, wenn wir uns trauen, wieder miteinander zu reden.“ Der Mensch Henrik Lehnhardt (*1983) ist ehemaliger Arbeitsdirektor und als Personalverantwortlicher Mitglied der  Geschäftsführung bei Outokumpu Nirosta, wo er viele Jahre internationale Restrukturierungen, Veränderungsprozesse und Verhandlungen leitete. Parallel hat er sich als Business Coach, Mediator und Speaker etabliert. Heute begleitet er Führungskräfte, Entscheider und Organisationen in Transformationsprozessen und Konfliktsituationen. Mit seiner Erfahrung verbindet er strategisches Management-Know-how mit einer zutiefst menschlichen Haltung: Zuhören, Vertrauen schaffen und Brücken bauen.Kontakt: Henrik bei LinkedInHenrik zu "Klarheit.

In this episode, Casey sits down with Daniel O'Donnal, Owner of Saela Pest Control, for a deeply human conversation on leadership, identity, and what it means to build something meant to last. From bootstrapping a business from scratch to a nine-figure exit, Daniel reflects on 17 years of grit, partnership, and the belief that real success is measured by the lives you impact, not just the profits you earn.He shares lessons learned from his partners, Andrew and Blaine Richardson, and the moments that nearly broke them; going without paychecks, homes on the line, and the humility of starting over. But the heart of this episode is not the sale; it is the story behind it. Daniel opens up about faith, mentorship, and adoption, and how the calling to expand his family changed everything he thought he knew about love, leadership, and capacity.This conversation explores what happens after the win, how to reframe identity beyond achievement, and why the best leaders make others believe in themselves first. A powerful reflection for entrepreneurs seeking meaning beyond the scoreboard.00:00 | House fire and adoption: when life interrupts01:19 | Why Daniel originally said no to this interview02:35 | The early years of Saela and a 17-year timeline04:22 | Building for legacy, not for sale05:33 | Why they sold: timing, mission, and stewardship07:00 | Choosing the right buyer and honoring employees09:19 | The emotional cost of stepping away10:59 | Identity crisis after the exit13:01 | Casey's own journey through leaving a company18:06 | Reframing self-worth and learning to slow down20:15 | Daniel's upbringing in Mexico, Guatemala, and Texas21:17 | Mission to Brazil and meeting Andrew Richardson22:55 | The power of mentorship and certainty28:08 | One phone call that changed Daniel's life forever32:08 | Leadership through belief: Andrew's lasting impact35:12 | Parallel paths: Casey and Daniel's early career struggles37:49 | Business as a spiritual game39:50 | The leadership question that shifts everything42:21 | Excellence, culture, and disproportionate rewards43:55 | Bootstrapping: no outside capital, all-in growth44:46 | Raising four kids while building a business46:40 | Why they adopted: a spiritual nudge and a leap of faith50:22 | Meeting the girls — and becoming a family of eight53:42 | Angie's selfless act and the reality of adoption55:13 | The hardest year of their family's life56:39 | Beauty through struggle: what people don't see57:49 | Casey's own adoption story and shared lessons Hosted on Acast.

In dieser Folge des Willi-pedia Podcasts der PlattesGroup stehen drei Themen im Fokus, die Unternehmer, vermögende Privatpersonen und internationale Investoren in Spanien direkt betreffen. Zum Jahreswechsel 2026 intensiviert Spanien den automatischen Informationsaustausch mit Liechtenstein, Monaco, Andorra und San Marino. Künftig werden auch digitale Vermögenswerte – etwa Guthaben auf E-Geld-Konten oder in digitalen Zentralbankwährungen – in den Datenaustausch einbezogen. Für Banken, Finanzinstitute und international tätige Unternehmer bedeutet das: mehr Transparenz, aber auch mehr Prüfungsdruck und Handlungsbedarf bei bestehenden Strukturen. Parallel dazu treten neue Vorschriften für elektronische Abrechnungssysteme in Kraft. Das „VERI*FACTU“-System ermöglicht eine direkte und fälschungssichere Kommunikation mit der spanischen Steuerverwaltung. Verstöße gegen die neuen Anforderungen können teuer werden – bis zu 50.000 Euro Strafe jährlich. Über das Portal PGate bietet die PlattesGroup ihren Mandanten bereits heute eine voll kompatible Lösung. Abschließend geht es um die Pflicht zur digitalen Postbox bei der spanischen Steuerverwaltung. Wer seine elektronische Post nicht regelmäßig prüft, riskiert Fristversäumnisse und hohe Nachzahlungen – wie ein aktueller Fall zeigt. Die Redner:

It captivates you, and captures your heart as the buzz shifts up to your imagination.Think back to a time where you met someone and felt an instant connection.Or found yourself drawn to a place you've never been, yet it feels like home?There might be more to these moments than coincidence.Today, I want to explore a concept that completely reframes how we understand reality: the idea that all versions of you—past, present, and future—are happening simultaneously, right now.Parallel lives are fricken' mind boggling.I finally cracked the code of a real - tangible example of how to find resolve in this mystical truth.Have you ever met someone and felt an instant, inexplicable connection?Or found yourself drawn to a place you've never been, yet it feels like home?There might be more to these moments than coincidence.Let's jump in and explore a concept that completely reframes how we understand reality:The idea that all versions of you—past, present, and future—are happening simultaneously, right now.Everything exists at once.Time isn't a river flowing from past to future. It's more like a vast ocean where every possibility exists simultaneously across different frequencies. You're simply tuned into one station—this life, this moment—but countless other versions are playing alongside it.Think about it like this: You're a radio receiver focused on one frequency, but you have the ability to tune into other stations. Those “past lives” you've heard about? They're not behind you. Those “future possibilities” you dream of? They're not ahead of you. They're all happening now, in parallel dimensions of experience.The people in your life are mirrors.Everyone you encounter—from your closest family to the stranger who smiled at you this morning—reflects a parallel version of yourself. They're autonomous beings living their own experiences, yes, but what you see in them mirrors the vibrations you're putting out.This is why certain people trigger you while others inspire you. They're showing you aspects of yourself you either resist or embrace.Your difficult colleague? They might be reflecting your own inner critic. That friend who always seems so peaceful? They're showing you your own capacity for serenity.But it goes deeper than this reality.Beyond the people in your current life exist infinite alternate versions of your world.What if you had taken that job in another city?What if you had said yes instead of no to that opportunity?Those realities exist now, complete with their own versions of you exploring different paths.And even beyond Earth-like experiences, parts of you exist in other dimensions, other worlds, as different types of beings entirely.All connected.All you.All now.Here's what this means for your daily life:When you feel drawn to something—a place, an idea, a person—trust it.You might be picking up information from a parallel self who has something valuable to share.When synchronicities appear, pay attention.They're often downloads from other versions of you who've already walked similar paths.When you meet someone who feels familiar, honor that recognition.They might be reflecting a parallel self you're ready to integrate.

Third-party settlement organizations (TPSOs)—including platforms such as Amazon, eBay, PayPal, and Venmo - must send copies of the form to both the IRS and taxpayers, detailing the total payments received for goods and services. Return to the Pre-2021 Standard Before 2021, TPSOs were required to issue a Form 1099-K only if a seller received more than $20,000 and conducted at least 200 transactions during the year. The 2021 American Rescue Plan Act lowered that threshold to $600, triggering widespread criticism from taxpayers and digital-payment platforms who warned the rule would swamp casual sellers with unnecessary paperwork. The IRS initially attempted to phase in the lower limit—proposing $5,000 for 2024, $2,500 for 2025, and $600 from 2026 onward—but the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed by President Donald Trump on July 4, permanently repealed those reductions. As a result, TPSOs are again only required to issue Form 1099-K if both of the following are true: The gross payments to a payee exceed $20,000, and The number of transactions exceeds 200.

Spannungsphase auf der DP World Tour In Südkorea gewinnt ein Lokalmatador das Genesis-Event und rückt mit minimaler Saisonteilnahme ins Ranking vor – sehr zum Ärger jener, die um ihre Karte kämpfen. Wir diskutieren die Konsequenzen der National-Spots, den Stellenwert europäischer Events und die wachsende Abhängigkeit zur PGA Tour. Im Fokus: die Deutschen vor den Saisonfinals. Nicolai von Dellingshausen und Marcel Schneider sind solide durch, Marcel Siem behält die Karte – während Yannik Paul (außerhalb der Top-120) und Maximilian Kieffer (jenseits der Top-140) via Q-School nachsitzen müssen. Auf Mallorca braucht Anton Albers beim HotelPlanner-Finale in Alcanada nur noch einen kleinen Schritt. Parallel leuchten wir die US-Schiene aus Matti Schmid und Stephan Jäger sind gesetzt, Jeremy Paul und Thomas Rosenmüller kämpfen um Status – ein dritter Platz von Thorbjørn Olesen zeigt, wie schnell sich Türen öffnen können. Dazu Statistiken als Wegweiser: Warum Driving und Putten bei Yannik Paul den Unterschied ausmachen. In der zweiten Hälfte widmen wir uns Hörer Falks Mail zu RPR-Runden: Selbstkritische Korrektur unsererseits, klare Zustimmung zum Fair-Play-Gedanken – und ein Blick auf heikle Jugendthemen. Zum Schluss: Tops & Flops mit Jordan Gumbergs Saison-Rettung per Eagle, Einblicken in die A-Trainer-Ausbildung sowie Notizen zu Max Rottluff und Rafa Cabrera Bello. Highlights Korea-Kontroverse: National-Spots, Ranking-Effekte und die Frage nach der Produktpflege der DP World Tour Deutsche im Check: von Dellingshausen/Schneider/Siem sicher – Schott stabil, Paul/Kieffer vor der Q-School Road to Mallorca: Anton Albers und der enge Test in Alcanada PGA-Tour-Update: Schmid & Jäger safe, Jeremy Paul/Rosenmüller mit Restchancen; Olesens Beispiel RPR-Debatte mit Hörer Falk: Fair-Play statt Generalverdacht, besondere Vorsicht im Jugendbereich Tops & Flops: Gumberg-Eagle zur Kartenrettung, A-Trainer-Insights, Rottluff & Cabrera Bello im Comeback-Modus

Send us a textHello beautiful people! So, I've recently fallen down this rabbit hole of watching skate videos again, like, actual full-on Nyjah Huston clips, and it made me think… skating might just be the best metaphor for life. Falling, failing, trying again, it's all kind of poetic when you think about it. In this episode, I share the lessons skating has taught me. If you've been craving a reason to revisit your old hobbies or just want to feel a bit more grounded, this one's for you. i hope you enjoy. i love you. have an amazing day. follow your dreams. etc etc ✩ CHECK OUT (my book) BRIGHT DAYS AHEAD ✩ Available on Amazon. ✭ my book:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B8VQX3TJ✩ MY SOCIAL MEDIA ✩✭ instagram: @_kellyannward_✭youtube:  @kellyannward  ✭ instagram: @theward.method  ✭ my blog: thewardmethod.blogI LOVE YOU :)-kells

Millionen Menschen weltweit informieren sich bereits mit Hilfe von KI-Assistenten wie ChatGPT oder Perplexity. Jetzt zeigt eine neue, grossangelegte Studie der European Broadcast Union EBU: Fast jeder zweite News-Artikel enthält gravierende Fehler. Rund 270 Journalistinnen und Journalisten von 22 öffentlich-rechtlichen Medien wie BBC, ARD, RAI oder SRF haben mehr als 2700 KI-generierte Newsantworten und Quellen nachgeprüft und liefern damit erstmals eine Länder- und sprachübergreifende Analyse, die zeigt, wo Medienschaffende besonders vorsichtig sein sollten im Umgang mit künstlicher Intelligenz. Parallel dazu zeigt eine Untersuchung des Forschungszentrum Öffentlichkeit und Gesellschaft der Universität Zürich, wie Medienschaffende in der Schweiz KI im Arbeitsalltag einsetzen und welche Herausforderungen dabei entstehen. Diese neuen Erkenntnisse verdeutlichen die Notwendigkeit verbesserter Medienkompetenz und sorgfältiger Prüfung bei der Nutzung von KI-gestützten Nachrichtenquellen.

In meinem Interview mit Petra Herz sprechen wir über ihr Herzensthema: mit und für Menschen zu arbeiten, um gemeinsam Ziele zu erreichen. Schon früh entscheidet sie sich ganz bewusst für einen Beruf in der Gesundheitsbranche. Heute ist sie Direktorin zweier Gesundheitseinrichtungen, Unternehmerin im Direktvertrieb und engagiert sich ehrenamtlich.Früher bezeichnete sie sich selbst als Morgenmuffel, doch je mehr sie den Sinn in ihrer Tätigkeit gefunden hat, desto leichter fiel es ihr, früh aufzustehen. Ihr Tag ist klar strukturiert, und sie sagt: „Das funktioniert nur, weil mein Mann und meine Tochter mich dabei unterstützen.“Doch ihr Weg war nicht immer gerade. Petra erlebt Mobbing am Arbeitsplatz – und braucht Zeit, um das überhaupt zu erkennen. Statt Grenzen zu setzen, steigert sie ihre Leistung immer weiter, bis sie merkt: So geht es nicht mehr. Sie kündigt, nimmt sich einen Coach und erfindet sich neu.Als Trainerin für Organisationsentwicklung reist sie quer durch Österreich, bis sie schwanger wird – und schließlich in dem, was sie heute tut, ihre wahre Berufung findet.Parallel baut sie sich eine Selbstständigkeit mit Wohlfühlprodukten auf, weil sie zutiefst von deren Wirkung überzeugt ist. Neues zu entdecken und sich weiterzuentwickeln, treibt sie an. Wir sprechen darüber, wie sie mit Momenten umgeht, in denen „zu viel Neues“ auf einmal da war, und darüber, wie sich ihre innere Stärke bereits in ihrer Kindheit entwickelt hat. Eine andere Form der Stärke entwickelt sie bei Karate, das sie anfangs langweilig fand und jetzt gemeinsam mit ihrer Tochter und ihrem Mann ausübt. Außerdem erzählt sie, wie sie damit umgegangen ist, als sie einen Knoten in der Brust entdeckte. Warum sie ausgerechnet 108 Jahre alt werden will, erfahren wir übrigens auch. Ihre Botschaft ist kraftvoll und inspirierend: Du kannst alles. Alles, was du möchtest, tu. Weil du es dir wert sein darfst.Möchtest du mehr über Petra und ihre Arbeit erfahren? Hier ist der Link zu ihrer Webseite.

Teil 2 von 3In dieser Episode wird der Fall Lichtmiete konkret: Lars und Alexander Hahn sprechen über die juristische Schlacht, die nach dem Kollaps begann – und einen dramatischen Wendepunkt.Dezember 2024: Alexander erhält eine SMS – Frank Günther wurde am Flughafen verhaftet. Ein "9/11-Moment", wie er es beschreibt, bei dem jeder weiß, wo er gerade stand.Parallel dazu: Die Klage gegen den Insolvenzverwalter. Alexander wirft ihm vor, 7 Millionen Euro Mieteinnahmen unrechtmäßig an Novalum weitergegeben zu haben – Geld, das den Direktanlegern zustand.Dann die nächste Eskalation: Gerade als Alexander Erfolge mit der Bündelung der Direktanleger erzielt, wird seine Frau angeklagt – in Oldenburg, wegen einer steuerlichen Gestaltung, die tausendfach empfohlen wurde und keinen Schaden verursacht hat.Außerdem: Wie Alexander trotz allem operativ weiterarbeitet, Leuchten aus Hallen rettet, mit Kunden verhandelt und seinen Investoren schrittweise Geld zurückzahlt.Ein Podcast über juristische Gegenangriffe, mysteriöse Anklagen und die Frage: Wie kämpft man gleichzeitig an mehreren Fronten – und baut trotzdem etwas Neues auf?

What does it mean to live with true integrity before God? This powerful exploration of Proverbs 11 uses a fascinating visual of an ancient scale to unlock a profound spiritual truth: God delights in transparency and abhors deception. The passage opens with the striking image of false balances being an abomination to the Lord, while just weights bring Him delight. This isn't merely about honest business dealings—it's a metaphor for how we live our entire lives. Through the clever illustration of M&Ms that look identical but weigh differently, we're confronted with our own tendency to present one thing while hiding another. The text walks us through contrast after contrast: pride versus humility, integrity versus crookedness, kindness versus cruelty. Each pairing reveals that our character isn't just about external actions but about the condition of our hearts. The crooked heart is an abomination, while blameless ways delight God. What makes this message so relevant is its unflinching honesty about how we position ourselves—toward our neighbors, in our business dealings, with our secrets, and especially in our witness. We're challenged to ask: Are we being authentic, or are we like gold jewelry on a pig—beautiful on the outside but fundamentally unclean? The call is clear: transparency, integrity, and genuine vulnerability are what allow others to see Christ in us and ultimately lead to capturing souls for the kingdom.### Sermon Notes**Introduction**- Series: Book of Proverbs- Transition from first nine chapters to the one-liners of Proverbs, emphasizing wisdom in everyday life.- Focus on Proverbs 11, particularly on themes of integrity, honesty, and righteousness.**Key Verses**- Proverbs 11:1: "A false balance is an abomination to the Lord, but a just weight is his delight."- Proverbs 11:20: "Those of crooked heart are an abomination to the Lord, but those of blameless ways are his delight."**Illustration: M&Ms and Balances**- Demonstration using M&Ms to illustrate unequal weights and measures.- Emphasizes honesty and integrity in dealings — showing the difference between a false balance and a just weight.**Understanding the Context**- Historical use of weights and measures to ensure fairness and integrity.- The biblical mandate for truthful representation in dealings with others.**Themes and Exposition**1. **Integrity and Honesty**  - Importance of being transparent and honest in daily interactions.  - Proverbs 11:3: "The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them."2. **Riches vs. Righteousness**  - Proverbs 11:4: Riches are futile in the end; righteousness delivers.  - Wealth should not be ultimate pursuit; leads to false security.3. **Pride and Humility**  - Proverbs 11:2: Pride leads to disgrace, humility to wisdom.  - Importance of maintaining humility in relationships and business.4. **Words and Relationships**  - Proverbs 11:9, 12-13: The impact of words on neighbors and communities.  - Encouragement to be silent and prudent in speech, preserving trust.5. **Guidance and Counsel**  - Proverbs 11:14: Value of wise counsel and collective decision-making.  - The role of community and elders in guiding individual and corporate decisions.6. **Generosity and Kindness**  - Proverbs 11:24-25: Generosity leads to blessings; holding back leads to want.  - Being open-handed with resources creates a culture of abundance and support.7. **Spiritual Pursuits**  - Proverbs 11:30: "The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and whoever captures souls is wise."  - Parallel to the Great Commission: our role in sharing the Gospel.**Practical Applications**1. **Practice Integrity:** Regularly assess how you conduct business and personal relationships.

Welcome to Battleground Korea: The Unfinished War. We begin by exploring how Korea, a nation scarred by decades of Japanese occupation, was suddenly and arbitrarily divided by the victorious Allies in 1945. The line was the 38th Parallel. This division birthed two fiercely opposing regimes and leaders: the Soviet-backed communist Kim Il Sung in the North, and the American-backed nationalist Syngman Rhee in the South. As the Cold War escalated, Korea rapidly became a volatile proxy battleground between East and West. "With American and Soviet forces withdrawing, the fragile peace along the 38th Parallel began to unravel. Skirmishes grew bloodier and more audacious. Both Kim Il Sung and Syngman Rhee openly spoke of unifying the peninsula—by force. The question wasn't if the two Koreas would clash, but whether their civil conflict would ignite a wider conflagration, pulling in the global superpowers. The stage was set, but who would make the first devastating move?" The episode concludes with the secret plotting that sealed Korea's fate. Kim Il Sung relentlessly lobbied Josef Stalin and Mao Zedong for the necessary support. After months of manoeuvring, the communist giants finally gave their approval, providing the crucial political green light. Next time: The Invasion.

It's part 2 of our dive into the Insect Apocalypse, with our good friend Dr. Jason Dombroskie from the Cornell University Insect Collection!In this part, Jason fills us in on the drivers of the Insect Apocalypse and - most importantly - what we can do about it.This episode was recorded on August 21, 2025 at Rattlesnake Hill Wildlife Management Area in Dalton, NY.. Episode NotesDuring the episode, we made the claim that 40 million acres of the US is lawn, and that that area is equal to all of the country's National Parks put together. True? Well, sort of. The claim that the U.S. has about 40 million acres of lawn—roughly equal to all our national parks combined—is only partly true. A NASA-funded study led by Cristina Milesi estimated that turfgrass covers about 128,000 km² (≈31 million acres) of the continental U.S., making it the largest irrigated “crop” in the country (Milesi et al., Environmental Management, 2005; NASA Earth Observatory). Later analyses and popular summaries often round that up to ≈40 million acres (e.g., Scienceline, 2011; LawnStarter, 2023). By comparison, the total land area of all officially designated U.S. National Parks is about 52.4 million acres, while the entire National Park System—which also includes monuments, preserves, and historic sites—covers about 85 million acres (National Park Service, 2024). So while lawns and parks occupy areas of similar magnitude, lawns do not actually equal or exceed the combined area of the national parks. Is it better to mulch leaves on your lawn or leave them be? Here's what we found: It's generally best to mulch your leaves with a mower rather than rake or remove them. Research from Michigan State University found that mowing leaves into small pieces allows them to decompose quickly, returning nutrients to the soil and reducing weeds like dandelions and crabgrass (MSU Extension, “Don't rake leaves — mulch them into your lawn”, 2012). Cornell University studies similarly show that mulched leaves improve soil structure, moisture retention, and microbial activity (Cornell Cooperative Extension, “Leaf Mulching: A Sustainable Alternative”, 2019). However, in garden beds, wooded edges, or under shrubs, it's often better to leave leaves whole, since they provide winter habitat for butterflies, bees, and other invertebrates that overwinter in leaf litter (National Wildlife Federation, “Leave the Leaves for Wildlife”, 2020). The ideal approach is a mix: mow-mulch leaves on grassy areas for turf health and leave them intact where they naturally fall to support biodiversity and soil ecology.

KING AMAZIAH of Judah is a classic example of someone whose pride got the better of him. 2 Kings 14 tells us that after Amaziah became king, he led a successful military campaign against Edom. He captured the stronghold of Sela, which was probably Petra in present-day Jordan, defeating an army of some 10,000 Edomites. This led him to provoke a war with the northern kingdom of Israel. Despite a warning from King Jehoash to “be content with your glory, and stay at home,” Amaziah wouldn't listen, the two kingdoms went to war, Judah was defeated, and Amaziah, like his father, fell victim to a palace coup. The parallel chapter in 2 Chronicles 25 reveals that Amaziah brought idols representing the gods of Edom back to Jerusalem and began to worship them, and that this was the reason the king provoked a war with Israel—God used this war to humble Amaziah and those who followed him into pagan worship.

Most founders think ads are the only scalable way to grow. They aren't. Aiden shows how outbound, done right, can outperform paid social—no algorithms, no ad bans, no CPM spikes. The secret isn't “more hustle.” It's smarter tech: parallel dialing that filters bad data, avoids spam flags, and connects live calls 10x faster.We trace the fall of traditional cold calls (three live connections per hundred dials), the rise of AI limits under TCPA, and why Facebook ads have quietly become a treadmill of copy rewrites, rising costs, and bot clicks. Aiden's model flips the script—less burn, more control, and measurable consistency.Even more surprising: the next generation of inside sales agents aren't in Silicon Valley—they're Egyptian lawyers earning more cold-calling than in law. Global leverage meets old-school grit.This isn't nostalgia for boiler rooms. It's data-driven, tech-enabled human connection.TL;DR* “Cold calling is dead” is a myth—it just evolved with smarter tools.* Parallel dialers reach 700–800 numbers/hour with adaptive line control.* Real cost advantage: your time + dialer fee vs $10K ad testing cycles.* AI callers are banned under TCPA—human voice still wins trust.* Best ROI: trained inside sales agents + verified mobile data = predictable leads.* Bonus: outbound also builds partnerships, not just direct sales.Memorable lines“Cold calling isn't dead—it's just been automated, filtered, and reborn.”“You can't out-ad Facebook's algorithm, but you can out-call your competition.”“Consistency beats creativity when your pipeline depends on people.”“AI can't legally sell for you—but real humans still can.”GuestAiden Sowa — Founder & CEO of Zoto Dialer, building next-gen multi-dialing systems that balance pickup rate, compliance, and speed for sales teams worldwide.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aidansowa/Website: https://www.zotodialer.co/Why this mattersScaling isn't about finding the next hack—it's about control.Cold calling 2.0 delivers what ads can't: consistent reach, predictable costs, and direct conversations that build trust faster than clicks.

In this episode of Chakras & Cusswords, we step into the cosmic web connecting two men whose deaths shook America in radically different ways: George Floyd in 2020 and Charlie Kirk in 2025. Through astrology, history, and public reaction, we explore how their birth charts echo one another and how their passing ignited movements, controversies, and conversations about justice, power, and freedom.What does it mean when both lives—and deaths—carry striking astrological signatures under Mercury-ruled seasons, with neck symbolism at the forefront? How do planets like Mars and the Moon whisper about conflict, collective grief, and transformation? And most importantly, what can we learn about America itself through their stories?Join me as we navigate the overlay of their cosmic blueprints, blending astrology with social reflection, to uncover the deeper spiritual narrative hidden beneath headlines.

Im Nahost-Konflikt beschuldigen sich die Kriegsparteien gegenseitig der Desinformation. Eine Recherche zeigt, wie Israel mit 3D-Videos um Deutungshoheit kämpft. Ausserdem: die Kantone und die Prämienverbilligungen. Und: die Reportage von der mexikanischen Grenze. Krieg um die Wahrheit: Israels 3D-Videos Seit zwei Jahren veröffentlicht das israelische Militär 3D-Videos zu seinen Angriffszielen: Spitäler und Wohngebäude, unter denen sich eine terroristische Kommandozentrale oder ein Waffenlager befinden sollen. Sie sollen belegen, dass die Angriffe auf zivile Infrastruktur gerechtfertigt sind. Die 3D-Videos gehen um die Welt: verbreitet in den sozialen Medien, von TV-Stationen und Nachrichtenagenturen. Obwohl sie als «Illustrationen» gekennzeichnet sind, werden die 3D-Modelle als Visualisierungen der Realität präsentiert. Eine Recherche. Kantone unter Druck: Kostenschub bei den Prämienverbilligungen Die steigenden Krankenkassenprämien sind für viele Menschen in der Schweiz eine Belastung. Parallel dazu steigen auch die Ausgaben für die Prämienverbilligungen an. Wie stark die Bürgerinnen und Bürger entlastet werden, ist von Kanton zu Kanton sehr unterschiedlich. Das soll sich ändern: Ab 2026 müssen sich die Kantone stärker an der Finanzierung der Prämienverbilligung beteiligen. Doch für einige Kantone ist das eine grosse finanzielle Last. Die «Rundschau» fragt nach. Kartelle und Fentanyl: Reportage von der mexikanischen Grenze An der mexikanischen Grenze sind Tausende mexikanische Soldaten im Einsatz, um Produktion und Export der tödlichen Droge Fentanyl zu stoppen. Auf der US-amerikanischen Seite patrouillieren an der Grenzmauer hochmoderne amerikanische Panzer und Drohnen. Sie setzen das von Präsident Trump versprochene harte Vorgehen gegen den Drogen- und Menschenschmuggel um. Die Reportage zeigt die Spannungen in der Grenzregion – denn das berüchtigte Sinaloa-Kartell wird nun von beiden Seiten angegriffen.

FRANKOPAN4.mp3 - The Medieval Warm Period, Viking Expansion, and Parallel Empires Professor Peter Frankopan | The Earth Transformed: An Untold History The Medieval Warm Period (950–1250 CE), marked by low volcanism, fostered environmental stability and large-scale human movement. This included Viking expansion into the North Atlantic, seeking new pastures and resources like walrus ivory. This colonization was often violent, relying on the enslavement and coercion of women from Ireland and Scotland for reproduction. In North America, the cosmopolitan city of Cahokia thrived for centuries before collapsing due to internal pressures like resource depletion and elite competition. Globally, several "power empires" (e.g., Chola, Abbasids) rose in parallel, reinforcing each other through trade and cultural exchange, such as the spread of Indian culture into Southeast Asia.

THE TEMPLE in Jerusalem fell into disrepair within a century of the death of Solomon. The king who repaired it was a good man—sort of. Joash (or Jehoash), son of Ahaziah, reigned in Judah 835–796 BC. He was made king at age seven by the high priest Jehoiada and is credited with restoring the Temple—even pushing the priests, who seemed rather slow to make repairs even after they were ordered to do so. However, the account in 2 Chronicles 24 records that after the death of Jehoiada, Joash fell away and returned to the pagan gods of the Canaanites. Worse, he had the son of Jehoiada, Zechariah, murdered for calling him out! As a consequence, God allowed Judah to be defeated by a relatively small army from the neighboring Aramean kingdom of Damascus, and Joash was assassinated in his bed by two of his servants. We also discuss the death of Elisha in the northern kingdom of Israel, and why King Joash (same name, different king) failed to completely defeat the Arameans.

THE FIRST SECTION of the Book of 1 Enoch concludes with Enoch's travels to the ends of the earth, including a visit to Eden.  We discuss the author's description of the portals through which the stars and winds pass, noting that evil winds came from the north, the direction from which bad things always came in Jewish thought (physical and supernatural). We also note Enoch's travels proceeded counterclockwise from east to north, west, south, and back to east, and compare that to other counterclockwise rituals from ancient times, on the summit of Mount Hermon, to the present day, at the Kaaba in Mecca.  When we return to 1 Enoch at the end of November, since we'll be in Israel next month at this time, we'll begin the Book of Parables, a prophetic section that influenced New Testament theology.  You can help Josh and Christina Peck with the medical and funeral expenses incurred for their 11-year-old son Nathan who went to be with the Lord on September 22, 2025:  • GiveSendGo: http://GiveSendGo.com/NathanTheBrave• PayPal: http://PayPal.me/JoshPeckDisclosure Or send your donation to: P.O.

A fun breath of fresh air, Sommelier and co-owner of Parallel Food & Drink in Portland, Oregon, Stacey Gibson chats with Trish about her adventures in wine and food. She grew up in Connecticut, went to college in Boston and then studied abroad in Tuscany - where a lot of this love of food and wine started. A desire for politics led her to Washington, D.C., but she discovered it simply wasn't for her, instead, an adventure to New York City is where she discovered her passion for wine, food, hospitality, and ultimately, her chef husband. After several years in the city, they both decide they wanted something different and moved to Portland, Oregon to embark on new adventures.

THE END of Ahab's line came within a span of seven years. Jehu, an Israelite military commander under Ahab's son, King Jehoram (or Joram), was anointed king over the northern kingdom at the direction of the prophet Elisha. Jehu moved quickly to eliminate Jehoram and the rest of the sons of Ahab. We explain why Ahab didn't literally have 70 sons (the number 70 in the ancient Near East was not a quantity; it was a symbol that represented “all of them”). Jehoram's nephew, King Ahaziah of Judah, was also killed by Jehu as he fled in his chariot, finally dying at the city of Megiddo. Then Jehu went to Jezreel and found Jezebel, the queen mother, whose last act in this world was probably screaming after she was tossed out of a tower window by her eunuchs. That left only Athaliah, mother of King Ahaziah. Athaliah was the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel, the sister of King Jehoram of Israel. When she heard that Ahaziah was dead, she tried to kill all of her grandsons. Why? She—and really, it was the Fallen realm motivating her—tried to eliminate the line of David (her husband, King Jehoram of Judah, son of Jehoshaphat, was a descendant of David) and replace it with the line of Ahab. Unfortunately for Athaliah, she missed one—an infant boy named Joash. Jehoiada the priest had secretly saved and raised Joash in the Temple. At the age of seven, Jehoiada brought him out, proclaimed him king, and, at his command, had Athaliah put to death, thus putting an end to the house of Ahab.

We've all heard the test-taking advice: “If you're stuck, trust your first answer.” But is that really the smart move? Research says no — and I begin this episode by explaining why going with your gut on exams might actually hurt your score. Source: Joseph T. Hallinan, author of Why We Make Mistakes (https://amzn.to/44PV4SQ). Feeling awkward or embarrassed is awful in the moment — but maybe it's not nearly as bad as you think. In fact, those cringeworthy moments might even be a secret weapon. Henna Pryor has studied the psychology of embarrassment and shares why embracing awkwardness can help you become braver and more resilient. She's a keynote speaker with two TEDx talks (https://www.ted.com/talks/henna_pryor_why_awkwardness_is_your_secret_weapon_for_risk_taking_at_work) and author of Good Awkward: How to Embrace the Embarrassing and Celebrate the Cringe to Become The Bravest You (https://amzn.to/45Ksgwh). We take seeds for granted — but how plants grow from them is one of nature's most astonishing processes. Jennifer Jewell, gardening educator, advocate, and host of the Cultivating Place podcast (https://www.cultivatingplace.com/blog-1), reveals the hidden wonders of seeds, including fascinating insights like how seedless watermelons are grown without seeds at all. She's also the author of What We Sow (https://amzn.to/3EKxv3f), a book that will forever change the way you look at the plants around you. Parallel parking may feel like a nightmare, but it doesn't have to be. With a couple of simple tricks, it's easier than you think. In the final segment, I share a straightforward technique that can make squeezing into tight spots much less stressful. Source: Jason Roberts, author of The Learn 2 Guide (https://amzn.to/3PnPNfH).

When Lisa Smith's family was gripped by the terror of her son's addiction, they felt like mere spectators to a relentless storm. But through her groundbreaking concept of parallel recovery, they began to reclaim their roles as active participants in the healing process. In this compelling episode, we sit down with Lisa, a TEDx speaker and author, who shares her family's transformative journey. She illuminates how families can support their loved ones suffering from addiction and mental health challenges by first addressing their own fears and recovery needs. Her insights shed light on addiction as a family disease and underscore the importance of structured recovery to create a more supportive environment.Our conversation with Lisa also navigates the vital principles of radical acceptance and compassionate boundaries in the recovery journey. She delves into the layered challenges families face, including confronting generational trauma and the systemic issues making family recovery services less accessible. We explore how stepping back from fear-driven responses can foster healthier interactions, and how setting boundaries, rather than being acts of harshness, can be deeply compassionate. Lisa's message is clear: when families engage in recovery, they not only aid their loved ones but enrich their own lives and relationships, crafting a nurturing space for healing amidst adversity.In this episode, you will hear:The concept of parallel recovery and its impact on family dynamics in addictionLisa Smith's personal journey with her son's addiction and mental health challengesImportance of addressing addiction as a family disease and involving families in the recovery processExploration of radical acceptance and compassionate boundaries in healingChallenges families face, including generational trauma and systemic barriers to recovery servicesFollow and Review:We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.
