What if the thing running your day… is your non-conscious thought patterns that are happening on repeat?? The same ones showing up every single day, silently shaping how you feel, how you react, and how you show up as a parent, partner, and person. In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on the 6 sneaky, unhelpful thought patterns that drag us down day-to-day - and how to actually catch them in real time, replace them, and feel better.We're getting into:- Why your brain loops the same thoughts all day (and why they feel so convincing)- The exact moment your thoughts turn into stress, snapping, or shutdown- The subtle difference between “venting” vs. actually moving forward- The simple mental shifts that take you from *reactive* to calm, grounded, and in control- Practical, in-the-moment tools you can use TODAY to change the way you think - and feelThis is the kind of episode that doesn't just sound good while you listen. It literally changes how your next moment goes. Less spiraling, less snapping. More clarity, more “Ok, I've got this.” Once you see these thought patterns, you can interrupt them. And when you interrupt them, your whole day goes differently. And overtime, your new thinking habits will rewire your brain to be more resilient.Your brain has been freelancing long enough.

I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Michelle Taylor Willis. Interview Summary Interview with Rushion McDonald – Money Making Conversations Masterclass Interview Purpose The purpose of this interview is to explore the difference between success and significance, with a particular focus on parenting, leadership, community impact, and intentional legacy building. Michelle Taylor Willis uses her personal journey, civic leadership, and her guide Raising Significance to challenge parents and professionals to think beyond individual achievement and toward collective responsibility. The conversation positions success as a starting point—and significance as the multiplier, especially in how we raise children, build networks, and serve others. Major Themes & Key Takeaways 1. Success vs. Significance A central theme of the interview is Michelle’s distinction between success and significance. Success is defined as personal accomplishment—career, income, stability—while significance is about leveraging that success to change lives beyond your own. Key takeaway: Success is self‑contained; significance is outward‑facing and transformational. 2. Raising Significant Children Requires Intention Michelle emphasizes that significance does not happen by accident. Her guide outlines principles designed to raise independent, confident, disciplined, and service‑oriented children. These principles are meant to be instilled early so that giving back becomes instinctual, not optional. Key takeaway: If significance isn’t taught intentionally, it rarely shows up later. 3. The Role of Healthy Fear and Authority Michelle discusses the value of healthy fear—not intimidation, but respect for authority and consequences. This concept, often misunderstood in modern parenting, is framed as a safety and discipline tool that prepares children for real‑world structure. Key takeaway: Healthy fear builds accountability and keeps children safe. 4. Discipline and Consistency Matter Both Michelle and Rushion highlight that parenting—like leadership—requires consistency and follow‑through. Children must understand that boundaries are real and consequences are unavoidable. Key takeaway: Consistency creates security, discipline, and trust. 5. Fraternities and Sororities as Leadership Training Grounds Michelle credits her membership in Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated with shaping her values around networking, service, accountability, and lifelong collaboration. These organizations provide built‑in support systems that extend far beyond college. Key takeaway: Purpose‑driven networks accelerate leadership growth and impact. 6. Significance Is About Service, Not Recognition Despite numerous awards and honors, Michelle makes it clear that recognition is not the goal—it’s simply feedback. True fulfillment comes from knowing her work has meaning and contributes to something larger than herself. Key takeaway: Recognition is validation; service is the mission. 7. The Power of Music and Early Skill Development Michelle strongly advocates for early exposure to music and structured learning, noting its connection to critical thinking, math skills, discipline, and brain development. She explains how musical training supports cognitive growth that carries into adulthood. Key takeaway: Early skill development builds lifelong cognitive advantages. 8. Significance Requires Community Mindset Michelle repeatedly reinforces that nothing meaningful is built alone. Whether parenting, leadership, or entrepreneurship, significance depends on strong teams, collaboration, and shared values. Key takeaway: The most impactful leaders think in terms of “we,” not “me.” Notable Quotes “There’s a difference between success and significance.” “Success is about you. Significance is about everybody else.” “Most people are comfortable being successful—but uncomfortable being significant.” “Healthy fear keeps you in check.” “If you raise children intentionally, significance won’t be optional.” “It’s never about me.” “Significance creates a domino effect that changes the world.” Overall Message Michelle Taylor Willis’s interview is a thought‑provoking call to intentional living and leadership. Through her work and her guide Raising Significance, she reframes parenting—and success itself—as stewardship. Her message is clear: the future depends not on how many successful people we create, but on how many significant ones we raise. In a world increasingly focused on individual achievement, Michelle challenges audiences to embrace responsibility, community, and purpose as the true measures of a meaningful life. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's guest is a female billionaire: the co-founder and CEO of the Good American inclusive fashion brand and a founding partner of SKIMS, the shapewear and loungewear company. Emma Grede's close working partnerships with the Kardashian family have led her to become an advocate for empowering women through business. Now, she's publishing her first book, Start With Yourself, in which she explores everything from building personal resilience to developing self-forgiveness. In this episode we discuss her East London mindset, her famously controversial (!) attitude towards work-life balance, being a mother of four (her twins were born via a surrogate) and her experience of miscarriage. Female ambition, fertility, the discomfort of hard work…I'm so grateful to Emma for opening up on subjects that are so often shrouded in silence. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 03:02 Ambition Loves Discomfort 05:57 Growing Up East London 07:31 ‘Too Ambitious' 08:34 East London Business Code 11:15 An Employee Mindset 19:13 Work-Life Balance Myth 26:34 Fearless Hustle Mindset 27:53 ITB Rise and Influencers 29:08 LA Office Ego Crash 31:40 Parenting as a Team 32:56 Fertility Reality Check 38:19 Good American Expansion Misstep 46:25 Mother's Influence

Quick note: We announced the Tender and Fierce fall cohort. See show notes below. What's the first question we ask our kids in kindergarten? “What do you want to BE when you grow up?” We do our children a disservice by asking this question because the very nature of the phrase implies that what you DO is who you are. What about for ourselves as adults? What does it means to live in “fullness of life,” even when our circumstances might not match our heart's desire? Perhaps Teresa of Avila held a clue to this mystery when she said, “God is among the pots and the pans.” In this episode, Josh and Christi define what we mean by the word “purpose” and also identify other flaws of our modern cultural understanding of purpose and how it influences how we shepherd the hearts of our kids. One question to consider, “Is our understanding of purpose, especially when raising our children, filtered through a biblical lens?” In other words, who is God calling our children to “become?”Josh and Christi also discuss Christi's own “mid-life” crisis, the many layers of purpose, what the Bible tells us about meaning, and how we squelch our children's desire for purpose even in early childhood. Time Stamps:0:00 Introduction1:40 Welcome to our own mid-life crisis4:40 Tender & Fierce fall cohort announcement!5:40 Christi's mid-life crisis and rethinking what “purpose” really is13:00 The layers of purpose and helping our children find theirs20:00 Ecclesiastes and the discovery of meaning23:20 Finding “fullness of life” no matter your life circumstances or current occupation / role29:07 What keeps us from living in purpose33:00 What multiplication and expansion of our purpose actually means Show Notes: Reserve your seat for Tender & Fierce Fall Cohort beginning August 17, 2026: https://www.famousathome.com/offers/V75F6bY2 Looking for a marriage intensive with Famous at Home?

Does it seem to you as if today's kids are not as smart and lacking in common sense than previous generations? You're not imagining things…The current focus on education — treating the human brain like a computer and using artificial intelligence (AI) to feed it knowledge — may be great for sitting in front of a screen playing video games, but not so much on real learning and creativity, the one true superpower every human being has.Educator Dr. Jared Horvath explains why today's kids are cognitively declining and describes what we can do to reverse that downward trend this week on Spirit Gym.Learn more about Jared at his LME Global website and on social media sites like Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn and Instagram.Timestamps8:05 Pursuing the science of learning.13:20 “The brain is not a computer, and you are not your brain.”24:49 Our kids are losing their conceptual natures, and are cognitively declining.27:56 Humanity's greatest superpower.32:32 The three stages of creativity.35:30 Why are kids living East Asian countries smarter and more creative than those in America?50:01 Why teachers don't have a say in the education process.58:20 Focusing on proximal goals versus distal goals.1:09:29 Do you really understand the difference between opinions and knowledge?1:16:01 AI falsely assumes human thought is best represented in speech.1:21:00 The reification of education.1:28:09 When Paul was a child, he dreamed of becoming a bank robber.1:35:42 The breadth of your knowledge is only as good as the depth of it, which may explain why education is broken.1:42:32 The importance of mastery.1:53:07 Is it really cheaper for schools to divest from digital tech for physical education and the arts?2:02:28 Why it is NOT important for kids to be taught how to use AI.2:16:01 Jared's real problem with AI, aside from the fact that it does nothing: Its intellectual heritage is hidden.2:21:08 The tech outsourcing of basic parenting.ResourcesThe Digital Delusion: How Classroom Technology Harms Our Kids' Learning — And How To Help Them Thrive Again by Dr. Jared HorvathFind more resources for this episode on our website.Music Credit: Meet Your Heroes (444Hz), Composed, mixed, mastered and produced by Michael RB Schwartz of Brave Bear MusicThanks to our awesome sponsors:PaleovalleyBIOptimizers US and BIOptimizers UK PAUL15Organifi CHEK20Wild PasturesPique LifeCHEK InstituteWe may earn commissions from qualifying purchases using affiliate links.

If you feel like you're constantly starting over in your fitness journey… this episode is for you. In this episode of The Fitness League Podcast, Josh, Alessandra, and Joelle break down the cycle that keeps people stuck—and how to finally break it using a simple, sustainable approach: the 70% restart rule. We dive into why chasing perfection leads to inconsistency, how flexible programming and "Plan A vs Plan B" thinking can keep you on track during busy seasons, and why enjoyment is one of the most underrated drivers of results. We also discuss how to unlearn rigid, all-or-nothing habits and shift toward a minimum effective dose mindset that actually fits your life. This conversation is about building a system you can return to—again and again—without burnout, guilt, or starting from scratch. Because real progress doesn't come from being perfect… it comes from staying in the game. If you're ready to stop the reset cycle and start building consistency that lasts, this episode will show you how.

Parents, did you know that understanding the world of your kids is a part of your parental calling? Youth workers, Sunday School teachers, pastors, and other significant adults all play an important role in the spiritual development of children, but Scripture is clear: The primary arena for Christian nurture is the home. Parents are called by God to teach the truth of God's Word by precept and example. An understanding of our kids and their culture helps us to function as cross-cultural missionaries – taking the Word of God from our culture into theirs. It helps us to prepare them for the reality of the unique challenges they will face in today's world. Only then can we effectively teach them to walk through difficult times by integrating Christian faith into all of life. Regularly ask your kids about the pressures, problems, challenges, and choices they and their peers are facing in today's world. Then, take time to get into God's Word so that you might direct them into handling whatever it is they are facing.

I had the opportunity to chat with therapist and author Eli Harwood about the messy, beautiful journey of parenting. Eli emphasizes the importance of focusing on our side of the parent-child relationship. It's not about blaming ourselves for our children's struggles, but rather about leveraging our emotions and experiences to enhance our connection with them. Parenting, Eli articulates, raises parents as much as it does children, and it's vital to approach our personal growth with compassion. Eli shared the five gifts from a secure parent—offering a glimpse into what important standards we can aim for as parents. We discussed how our emotional baggage can sometimes interfere with these gifts, but by understanding our patterns, like people-pleasing or perfectionism, we can grow and better support our kids.

If parenting is bringing out anger you don't recognize… you're not alone. And if anxiety is riding shotgun in your nervous system, same. Today we're talking emotions, conflict, and repair so you can stay safe and secure even when things get messy. In this conversation, I'm joined by Eli Harwood, known as the “Attachment Nerd,” a licensed therapist, bestselling author, and educator who specializes in attachment-based parenting and relationship guidance, helping families and individuals nurture secure attachment patterns. We're talking about why parenting anger happens, what it may be trying to tell you, and how to work with it without shaming yourself or taking it out on your kids. If you've been looking for anger management for parents that feels compassionate, grounded, and actually useful in real life, this episode is for you. We also get into parental anxiety, emotion coaching, secure attachment parenting, and the kind of inner work that helps you stay steady when your child is anything but. Eli shares why anger is not the enemy, why repair matters more than perfection, and how your own childhood story can quietly shape the way you respond to stress, conflict, and your kids' biggest feelings. In a lot of ways, this conversation becomes an anger management parents guide for the real moments nobody prepares you for. As you listen, I'd love for you to consider: when your child is upset, what gets activated in you first: anger, anxiety, shame, helplessness, or something else?

Join the Family Reset—it's free and will change how you show up at home: https://hifam.com/reset Parenting today feels heavier than it used to. Not because we care more… but because we're carrying more. More information. More pressure. More comparison. And somewhere in all of that, many parents lose their confidence. In this episode, I'm sharing what changed for me after raising five children: - What I stopped worrying about - What actually matters - What I would do completely differently if I were starting again. Some of these shifts might surprise you. Some might feel like permission. But all of them are about helping you parent with more clarity, less anxiety, and a stronger sense of what truly matters. If you've ever felt like you're overthinking parenting… this is for you. ______________________________ Get your kids playing for 3 hours a day with Reclaim Play - https://reclaimplay.com

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch. This week, Jim and Greg break down how the Charlotte train murderer may escape true justice, the eyebrow-raising parenting confessions from Jennifer Siebel Newsom, wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom, and the jaw-dropping success of the U.S. military in rescuing two Americans shot down over Iran.First, they vent after DeCarlos Brown, who stabbed Iryna Zarutska to death on train in Charlotte, is deemed incompetent to stand trial in a mental health evaluation. Jim and Greg explain how it's thoroughly implausible for this diagnosis to suddenly emerge now and how this would be a major miscarriage of justice if the court agrees.Next, they dive into comments from California "First Partner" Jennifer Siebel Newsom, who revealed some extreme parenting tactics to fight the patriarchy. Jim and Greg reveal what they think of her advice and what impact this could have on Gavin Newsom's presidential ambitions.Then, they marvel at the U.S. military's unwavering commitment to leaving no man behind and highlight the remarkable coordination between armed forces and the intelligence community to extract the American flight crew before Iranian forces could capture them. Finally, in this week's chaser, they can only laugh as MSNOW's Lawrence O'Donnell launches the most ridiculous attack possible in connection with the amazing rescue mission conducted in Iran last weekend.Please visit our great sponsors:Schedule a free gold strategy session with Noble Gold.
