Trying to separate your work from your life? That might be the problem. For business owners and ambitious professionals, the old model of balance doesn't work anymore. The math doesn't lie, and neither does your exhaustion from trying to split yourself in two. What if you could focus on what matters most and let everything else fall into place? I'm sharing the mathematical formula that proves you don't need more hours in the day. You need better focus on the right hours. The 64-4 rule will change how you think about your time forever. Featured Story I walked into the gym this morning and nearly turned around. For three weeks over the holidays, it was me and maybe three other people. Peaceful. Easy. Today? Looked like 3,000 people showed up. The New Year's crowd is back. But instead of getting annoyed, I realized something. This is exactly what happens when people try to force balance into their lives. They show up hard for three weeks, burn out, and disappear. They're trying to separate their fitness from their life instead of making it part of how they live. That's when it hit me. The same thing happens with work and life balance. We're asking the wrong question. Important Points If you're a business owner, there is no separation between life and business. That's not a problem. That's freedom. The 80-20 rule proves that 80% of your results come from just 20% of your actions. Now do the math on that again. When you focus just 4-20% of your day on what matters most to you, the other 64-80% takes care of itself. Math. Memorable Quotes "Life is business. Business is life. That's called freedom, and it's exactly what you signed up for when you started." "If you could do more of what you love to do, life would be better. If you did more of what you hate, it wouldn't." "Eighty percent of your day is dictated by the smallest part of your focus. Use that to your advantage, not against it." Scott's Three-Step Approach Identify your passion zones. List the things you actually want to do more of. Money, relationships, fitness, whatever. Focus just 4-20% of your day on those passion zones. That's the smallest investment for the biggest return possible. Let the rest of your day take care of itself. When you nail the important stuff, everything else falls into place.

“Chasing greatness is grieving the person you once were.” Tyriq Withers Ryan, Channing and Fred chop it up with Tyriq Withers, a rising actor making his mark in Hollywood, for an honest conversation about perseverance, processing grief, risk taking and how his journey is proof that purpose doesn't always follow a straight line and what's meant to be will always be. The conversation starts off with a fun story of Tyriq, a Jacksonville native, sharing how his childhood idol was a FAMILIAR guest speaker he had as a kid in elementary school... one guess? And you already know Chan and RC had a field day with the age jokes of Freddy T being that guy 20+ years ago! A die-hard Jaguars fan excited for the playoffs, he also opens up on the special meaning behind wearing a custom made "144" Shedeur Sanders jersey and how the bible verse he had imprinted on the sleeve changed his thought process. Yes, his love of sports starts long ago and before stepping in front of the camera, Tyriq's first love was football as he walked on to Florida State where he was part of the Seminole team (along with Dalvin Cook and Derwin James) that won an Orange Bowl in 2016. Ball was his life and taught him discipline, resilience, and what it takes to perform under pressure. That foundation helped fuel his transition into acting, where he's now making waves starring in the upcoming film Him, along with roles in other notable projects. Tyriq breaks down his journey into acting, the sacrifices it took to chase his passion, and the mental resilience required to survive an industry built on rejection and uncertainty. From navigating auditions and staying grounded to defining success on his own terms, he shares what it really means to pivot when the path isn't guaranteed. He talks about what it was like working with Donald Glover, shares who is on-screen inspiration is and the full circle experience of learning from Marlon Wayans, who he admired growing up and then became a big brother to him during the filming of Him. But Marlon wasn't just an on-screen mentor, he also helped Tyriq navigate life during one of the darkest and difficult times after he lost his older brother unexpectedly and was met with a new wave of grief and responsibility he didn't know existed. Emotional and honest, Tyriq shares how he dealt with it while still being able to pursue his dreams and balance the success with managing deep pain. Pivoting from sports to Hollywood to betting on himself in an industry built on rejection, this episode takes a deep dive on staying grounded while navigating new levels of visibility and expectation. From embracing discomfort to redefining success beyond the scoreboard, this conversation goes deeper than credits and highlights. It's a powerful discussion about identity, faith, work ethic, and trusting the process — on and off the field.

Everyone keeps telling you to “follow your passion” and the money will magically show up.That advice is bullshit.In this episode of the Bedros Keuilian Show, I break down one of the biggest lies sold to people in their 20s: that passion and career are supposed to be the same thing. They're not.Chasing passion is why so many people bounce from opportunity to opportunity, never build mastery, and end up broke, frustrated, and average.Here's the truth: every path involves pain. The pain of doing the work. Or the pain of being broke.If you only do things when you “feel passionate,” you'll never stick around long enough to become a specialist, an expert, an authority, or a leader people actually pay attention to. Real money lives at the top and getting there takes years of discipline, consistency, and doing work you don't always enjoy.If you're tired of being broke, tired of starting over, and tired of lying to yourself about why you keep quitting this episode is your wake-up call.Choose the pain of hard work… or accept the pain of being broke.DOMINATION DOWNLOADSTRAIGHT FROM THE DESK OF BEDROS KEUILIANYour weekly no B.S. newsletter to help you dominate in business and in lifehttps://bedroskeuilian.com/MAN UP SCALE BUNDLE: $29 (100% Goes to Charity)Get your Digital Man Up book + Audiobook + 2 Exclusive MASTERCLASSES & Support Shriners Children's Hospital. https://www.manuptribe.com/limited-offerREGISTER FOR THE LEGACY TRIBEGet the Life, Money, Meaning & Impact You Deservehttps://bedroskeuilian.com/legacytribeJOIN MY FREE 6-WEEK CHALLENGE:Transform into a Purpose-Driven Manhttps://bedroskeuilian.com/challengeTHE SQUIRE PROGRAM: A rite of Passage for Your Son as He Becomes a ManA Father and Son Experience That Will Be Remembered FOREVERhttps://squireprogram.com/registerTruLean Supplements | https://www.trulean.com/pages/bedrosGet 50% Off Trulean Subscribe & Save BundleUse Code: BEDROS Few Will Hunt Apparel | https://fewwillhunt.com/Get 20% Off Your Entire OrderUse Code: BEDROSOPEN A FIT BODY LOCATIONA High-Profit, Scalable Gym Franchise Opportunity Driven By Impacthttps://sales.fbbcfranchise.com/get-started?utm_source=bedrosPODCAST EPISODES:https://bedroskeuilian.com/podcast/STAY CONNECTED:Website | https://bedroskeuilian.com/Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bedroskeuilian/LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/bedroskeuilianTwitter | https://twitter.com/bedroskeuilian

If you've ever dreamed of launching a physical product—turning an idea into something tangible—you've probably noticed how overwhelming the process can feel. Manufacturing, sourcing, quality control, logistics, global suppliers…every step has layers most founders never see until they're already in trouble. In a world where disruptions happen daily and the global economy shifts without warning, the founders who succeed aren't just innovative—they're prepared. Today's guest, Kerim Kfuri, brings more than two decades of global supply chain expertise spanning technology, retail, spirits, sports equipment, and beyond. As Founder & CEO of The Atlas Network, he and his team help companies navigate the often-chaotic process of bringing products to market—handling everything from factory selection to QC, logistics, and end-to-end production. Kerim is also the author of Supply Chain Ups and Downs, creator of The Supply & Demand Show, and the first U.S.-based verified supplier and ambassador for Alibaba—giving him a uniquely global, modern perspective on how products really get made. In this episode, Kerim breaks down the mindset, knowledge, and strategies every founder needs before they ever produce a thing. The Hidden Challenges New Founders Overlook Kerim's path into supply chain didn't start in manufacturing—it began with years spent in finance, regulation, consulting, and entrepreneurship. But everything changed the first time he stepped into a factory in China and saw ideas becoming reality on the production line. From that point forward, one truth has shaped his entire philosophy: Most founders fail not because the idea is bad, but because they don't know what they don't know. The wrong supplier. No quality control. Assuming timelines will hold. Not understanding cultural expectations. Failing to anticipate disruptions. Kerim explains how founders can dramatically reduce risk by choosing vetted suppliers, putting "eyes and ears" on the ground, and building processes that protect them from expensive mistakes. Even seasoned brands struggle when entering new categories—so first-time founders need even more support. Successful product creation starts with education, clarity, and the right partners. AI, Disruption, and the Future of Product Development Global supply chain challenges aren't rare—they're constant. Weather, politics, tariffs, port closures, labor strikes, pandemics…founders can't avoid disruptions, but they can prepare for them. Kerim believes these moments of chaos often spark innovation. When materials change, or routes shift, companies are forced to rethink how products are made—and sometimes what emerges is stronger, smarter, or more profitable than before. He also shares how AI is reshaping the entire supply chain ecosystem: AI-powered sourcing tools that match founders to the right factory instantly Autonomous warehousing, trucking, and drone delivery Emissions-optimized shipping routes Instant business plans and market analyses generated from a single idea But with innovation comes caution. Kerim emphasizes that AI must be a tool—not a substitute for human wisdom, experience, and guardrails. At the center of it all is the mindset he teaches clients: a limitless mindset—one that looks for possibility, not restriction.

Podcasting is incredibly unique and fun work that has allowed me to meet so many rivers and river people. And podcasting is a job that I really just created for myself. Yes there are other podcasts and podcasters, but by nature of the work, we are all kind of hidden in quiet places behind microphones and editing screens, so finding a podcasting friend is so helpful. Ed Roberson has built the Mountain & Prairie Podcast and we have become colleagues and friends that can support each other when we have questions and challenges. For this episode, Ed and I decided to interview each other in a single episode and go deeper into our work, and publish it on both of our respective podcasts. Ed is a leading interviewer finding some of the most humble and impactful people of the American West and Ed is in the process of writing his own book. To start off 2026, here is an episode with two podcasters talking about our work, focus and plans for this coming season of episodes.  GUESTSEd RobersonMountain & Prairie Podcast websiteOn AppleOn Spotify@mtnprairieSPONSORSDenver Area Nissan Dealers@nissanusa THE RIVER RADIUSWebsiteRunoff signup (episode newsletter)InstagramFacebookApple PodcastSpotifyLink Tree

Welcome back to PowerHouse Feng Shui Podcast! We're bringing back one of our most inspiring conversations—an episode that feels just as relevant and empowering today as when it first aired. In this soul-stirring encore, Patricia reconnects with Abby, a visionary entrepreneur whose love for high heels sparked a powerful business idea. What began as a personal passion became an innovative solution that allows women to wear heels 4x longer without pain, proving that inspiration often comes from the simplest joys in life. Together, we explore the importance of listening to the subtle pings and whispers of the heart, trusting curiosity, and having the courage to follow where it leads. This conversation is a reminder that dreams are worth pursuing and that even small steps can lead to extraordinary outcomes. Tune in, listen through your heart, and remember: you may fail on a small scale—but you can never fail on your dreams   Resources: Feng Shui Mini Course or Feng Shui 101 - https://love.powerhousefengshui.com/feng-shui-101 Feng Shui Checklist - https://www.powerhousefengshui.com/feng-shui-checklist-1   Connect with Patricia Lohan: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/powerhousefengshui/ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@patricialohan YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@PatriciaLohan Website - https://patricialohan.com/ Send us an email: miracles@patricialohan.com

Quitting isn't the real danger. The real danger is chasing a goal you don't actually want. Show Notes In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor shares a candid realization from his Ironman training that sparked a deeper conversation about goals, passion, and honesty with yourself. While training for an upcoming Ironman race in March, Baylor found himself asking a simple but uncomfortable question. Why am I doing this race? The answer surprised him. There was no emotional connection. No deeper meaning. It was simply the first Ironman offered in Dallas, and he signed up caught up in the excitement. That moment led to a powerful insight. The worst thing is not giving up on a goal. The worst thing is continuing to pursue a goal you are not passionate about. Baylor breaks down why many people quit their goals early in the year. Not because they are lazy or undisciplined, but because the goal itself never belonged to them. It was chosen for hype, social validation, or momentum, not purpose. He walks listeners through the key questions everyone must ask when evaluating a goal. Why did I choose this? Who am I doing it for? What connects me to it? And will this goal actually transform me? Using his own experience, Baylor explains why it is okay to pivot when you have better information. Goals should align with the direction you are heading, not the person you were months ago. Growth changes priorities, and adjusting goals is not failure. It is clarity. The episode closes with a meaningful shift. Instead of forcing himself to pursue a March race he felt disconnected from, Baylor rediscovered the race that originally inspired his endurance journey years ago. By moving the goal to September and reconnecting it to purpose, the goal came back to life. This episode is a reminder that passion fuels perseverance. Discipline can only carry you so far. Meaning carries you the rest of the way. What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why pursuing the wrong goal is worse than quitting • How to identify goals driven by hype instead of purpose • The importance of emotional connection in long-term goals • When and how to pivot without giving up • Why growth often requires reassessing old goals • How meaning fuels consistency when motivation fades Featured Quote "It's not okay to quit on your goals, but it is okay to pivot when the goal no longer fits who you are becoming." If a goal feels heavy, empty, or disconnected, pause and ask why. Reattach meaning, shift the timeline, or realign the goal. Passion is not optional. It is the fuel.

“Send Coach John a message”I found so many things that I wanted to (and could have) share with you today. It could easily be 10 podcasts. This one connected with me first and it came from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) and he shared this preview of what the post was all about:  “A message for today … Don't be afraid to embrace life, chase your dreams and live fully. Show up every day with passion and courage, and let nothing hold you back. Life is rare and beautiful—go all in with it!” His post moved me so much and I shared these thoughts on his post as I shared it with others: “I could do so much better with this for my life… I've had my moments of not being afraid, but not like I know I could have. Good news for me, I can show up today - right in this moment I have - with passion, courage, love, etc., and do my best with the task at hand.”  I shared a lot about this in today's episode and it honestly connects with a lot of the thoughts, feelings, ideas swirling around in my head from other items I have connected with this morning - but I hope (as I always do) this gets you thinking and then acting in a direction that helps you with the things going on in your life. Whatever it is, keep it up!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

"Send us a message! (questions, feedback, etc.)"Since the late '90's / early 2000's, Passion Music has been blessing the Church with song after song to sing together. And one of its primary worship leaders is our guest Kristian Stanfill.Kristian is the voice you've heard on songs like "One Thing Remains," "Death Was Arrested," "Glorious Day," and "Come to Jesus." He is a passionate, enthusiastic worshipper and worship leader who leads at Passion conferences and at his home church, Passion City Church in Atlanta.There's another part of Kristian's life that became known over the past few years. In November 2020, a few of his closest friends confronted Kristian about his alcoholism. What had started as a crutch/escape from stress and difficult emotions had developed into an addiction and was out of control. What happened next is an amazing story of grace, healing, and recovery.After stepping out of the spotlight for a couple years, Kristian released Make It Out Alive, an album of songs written in his time with God in recovery. More recently he released Come to Jesus, a new collection of worship songs and real-life encouragements.Kristian lives in Atlanta with his wife Kerri and their kids. #kristianstanfill #passionmusic #cometojesus #makeitoutalive #worship #passion #gospel #grace #awaken #awakenrecovery #awakenpodcast #whatwereallywant #wwrw  #connection #conversationKristian's websitePassion Music websiteKristian on Instagram Support the showAwaken websiteRoots Retreat Men's IntensiveRoots Retreat Women's WorkshopAwaken Men & Women's support meeting info (including virtual)

In This Episode Passion alone doesn't build a business—systems turn purpose into something sustainable. In this episode, Adi Klevit sits down with Patty Aubery to explore how one idea evolved into one of the most recognizable personal development brands in the world. Patty shares the early behind-the-scenes reality of Chicken Soup for the Soul, including years of rejection, relentless promotion, and the systems that eventually made massive scale possible. Adi and Patty discuss the difference between passion as a hobby and passion as a business. Patty reflects on the defining personal moment that pushed her to step out from behind the scenes and become visible, and how that shift now informs the work she does with entrepreneurs who are settling, hiding, or staying stuck. The conversation comes full circle to systems and processes. Patty explains why structure does not limit creativity—it enables it. From publishing hundreds of titles to coaching business owners today, she emphasizes that without systems, you have a job; with systems, you have a company.

True spirituality is not about getting what you want or fixing the outside world, but learning to be okay inside by letting go of preferences, stored pain, and inner resistance. Reality unfolds through universal causes, not personal desires, and suffering comes from pitting yourself against what is. Enlightenment comes from witnessing your inner experiences without suppression, honoring all emotions, and living in harmony with, and selflessly serving, whatever life presents to you. © Sounds True Inc.

What happens when the skills that built your pet care business are no longer the ones it needs to grow? In this episode, we respond to a thoughtful listener question about the uncomfortable transition from doing the work to running a company. We unpack why growth often feels harder instead of easier, even when things are "going well." We walk through three major mindset resets that every owner eventually faces as responsibilities shift. This conversation is about sustainability, leadership, and learning how to care at scale. Main topics: From execution to decisions Passion versus standardization Accountability and leadership Identity shift as owner Sustainability at scale Main takeaway: "You didn't stop caring—you learned how to care at scale." If your work feels different than it used to, that doesn't mean you've lost your passion. It means your role has changed. What once required your hands now requires your judgment, your restraint, and your leadership. Caring at scale means building systems, setting standards, and making decisions that protect the quality of care even when you aren't the one doing the visit. That shift can feel uncomfortable, but it's often the clearest sign that your business has grown into something that can last. Links: Check out our Starter Packs See all of our discounts!

In this episode of the Elevate Media Podcast, Chris Anderson welcomes Jeremy Vest, a veteran YouTube strategist. With two decades of experience, Jeremy provides a no-nonsense guide to achieving sustainable growth, moving past the common pitfalls that keep over 90% of creators from even reaching 1,000 subscribers. This is a crucial conversation for anyone looking to build a media company, from aspiring creators to small business owners.In this episode, you will learn:Why you must create content for the viewer, not for yourself, and why being a "generalist" on YouTube is a "very dangerous thing."The critical importance of narrowing down your niche, using the example of the world's most famous plumber, and why specificity (e.g., "skaters over 40") is essential to stand out from AI-generated content.The "Purpose, Passion, Profit" three-circle alignment necessary to sustain creativity over the long haul.The power of defining your value and mission in a six-word phrase to maintain focus and belief.The "Click, Watch, Like" algorithm framework and how to set the first two seconds of your video with high stakes to match your title and thumbnail intent.How Jeremy's company uses AI to find the titles, hooks, and scripts from the world's top-performing videos to create winning formulas.Why creators must have a "growth mindset" to improve by 1% every week, instead of quitting with a "fixed mindset."The smart way to monetize: never make more than 10% of your revenue from ads, prioritizing your own products/services, affiliate marketing, and brand partnerships.The "hard truth" most creators are not ready to hear about their journey to success.

On parle de la « Passion » du Christ pour désigner l'ensemble des souffrances qu'il endure depuis son arrestation jusqu'à sa crucifixion. Mais ce mot peut surprendre, car aujourd'hui, la passion évoque plutôt l'amour, l'enthousiasme ou l'élan intérieur. En réalité, le sens religieux du terme est bien plus ancien — et presque à l'opposé de son usage moderne.Le mot « passion » vient du latin passio, qui signifie littéralement « souffrance », « ce que l'on subit ». Il est lui-même issu du verbe pati, « endurer, supporter ». Dans le latin chrétien des premiers siècles, la passio désigne donc le fait de subir une épreuve, en particulier une souffrance injuste. C'est dans ce sens que l'on parle très tôt de la Passio Christi : la souffrance du Christ.Dans les Évangiles, la Passion commence généralement avec l'arrestation de Jésus après la Cène : trahison de Judas, procès, flagellation, couronne d'épines, portement de la croix, crucifixion et mort. L'accent n'est pas mis seulement sur la douleur physique, mais aussi sur l'humiliation, l'abandon et l'acceptation consciente de cette épreuve. La Passion n'est pas une souffrance subie passivement : elle est acceptée volontairement, selon la théologie chrétienne, pour le salut de l'humanité.C'est là un point central. Dans la tradition chrétienne, le Christ est à la fois victime et acteur. Il souffre — c'est la passio — mais il choisit de traverser cette souffrance. Le mot « passion » conserve donc une tension fondamentale : il désigne à la fois l'extrême douleur et l'engagement total. Ce double sens explique pourquoi, plus tard, le mot a pu évoluer vers l'idée d'un élan intérieur puissant, capable de dépasser la raison.Au Moyen Âge, la Passion devient un thème majeur de la liturgie, de l'art et du théâtre religieux. Les « Mystères de la Passion » mettent en scène la souffrance du Christ pour susciter compassion, empathie et réflexion spirituelle. La Passion n'est pas seulement un épisode de la vie de Jésus : elle est un moment fondateur, qui donne sens à la Résurrection.Avec le temps, le mot « passion » s'est progressivement éloigné de son sens premier de souffrance pour désigner une émotion intense, souvent amoureuse. Mais dans l'expression « la Passion du Christ », le sens originel demeure intact.En résumé, on parle de la Passion du Christ parce que, dans le langage chrétien ancien, la passion n'est pas l'amour exalté, mais la souffrance assumée. Une souffrance centrale, non pas subie au hasard, mais placée au cœur du récit et du message chrétien. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Transcript:Da: I en sneklædt Kongens Have i København samledes folk for at fejre nytårsaften.En: In a snow-covered Kongens Have in København, people gathered to celebrate New Year's Eve.Da: Lysene glimtede i træerne, og den kolde luft fyldtes med musik og latter fra scenen.En: The lights twinkled in the trees, and the cold air was filled with music and laughter from the stage.Da: Freja gik alene gennem sneen, hendes åndedrag svævede som små skyer foran hendes ansigt.En: Freja walked alone through the snow, her breath hovering like small clouds in front of her face.Da: Hun var ankommet tidligt, håbede på, at denne aften ville bringe hende den klarhed, hun søgte.En: She had arrived early, hoping that this evening would bring her the clarity she sought.Da: Freja var i slutningen af ​​tyverne.En: Freja was in her late twenties.Da: Hun arbejdede i et kontorjob, der ikke længere inspirerede hende.En: She worked in an office job that no longer inspired her.Da: Hendes skjulte passion var at male.En: Her hidden passion was painting.Da: Lærreder og pensler kaldte på hende, men tanken om økonomisk usikkerhed og familiens forventninger holdt hende fast.En: Canvases and brushes called to her, but the thought of financial uncertainty and family expectations held her back.Da: Da hun stod foran scenen, gik hendes tanker tilbage til tidligere nytårsaftener sammen med familien.En: As she stood in front of the stage, her thoughts went back to previous New Year's Eves with her family.Da: Varme, trygge, men fastlåste.En: Warm, safe, but stuck.Da: Kunne hun virkelig tage chancen og følge sin drøm?En: Could she really take the chance and follow her dream?Da: Mens hun tænkte, opdagede hun en kendt skikkelse blandt mængden.En: As she pondered, she discovered a familiar figure among the crowd.Da: Det var Jens, en gammel ven og talentfuld kunstner.En: It was Jens, an old friend and talented artist.Da: Hans positive indstilling havde altid inspireret hende.En: His positive outlook had always inspired her.Da: "Freja!"En: "Freja!"Da: råbte Jens og vinkede til hende.En: shouted Jens, waving to her.Da: "Godt at se dig!"En: "Good to see you!"Da: De omfavnede hinanden, og Jens' smittende humør lettede Frejas tunge tanker.En: They embraced, and Jens' infectious mood lightened Freja's heavy thoughts.Da: De talte om gamle tider og drømme.En: They talked about old times and dreams.Da: Jens kunne se uro i hendes øjne.En: Jens could see the worry in her eyes.Da: "Hvad bekymrer dig?"En: "What troubles you?"Da: spurgte han.En: he asked.Da: Freja tøvede kort, men så fortalte hun om sin længsel efter at male og sin frygt for at tage springet.En: Freja hesitated briefly but then told him about her longing to paint and her fear of taking the leap.Da: Jens lyttede opmærksomt og sagde: "Du har et stort talent, Freja.En: Jens listened attentively and said, "You have great talent, Freja.Da: Vi lever kun én gang.En: We only live once.Da: Nogle gange skal vi tage risici for at finde vores lykke."En: Sometimes we must take risks to find our happiness."Da: Deres samtale blev afbrudt af de første toner fra koncerten.En: Their conversation was interrupted by the first notes from the concert.Da: Musikken fyldte luften og bragte liv til haven.En: The music filled the air and brought life to the garden.Da: Freja følte en gnist af håb.En: Freja felt a spark of hope.Da: Jens' ord rungede i hendes sind, og mens scenen lyste op i farver, besluttede hun sig.En: Jens' words echoed in her mind, and as the stage lit up in colors, she made her decision.Da: "Jeg gør det, Jens," sagde Freja.En: "I'm going to do it, Jens," Freja said.Da: "Jeg vil forfølge min passion."En: "I will pursue my passion."Da: Jens smilede bredt.En: Jens smiled broadly.Da: "Jeg vidste, du kunne."En: "I knew you could."Da: Da klokken nærmede sig midnat, sluttede Freja sig til mængden, der ivrigt talte ned til det nye år.En: As the clock approached midnight, Freja joined the crowd eagerly counting down to the new year.Da: Fyrværkeri lyste himlen op, mens nytåret bragte ny begyndelse.En: Fireworks lit up the sky as the New Year brought a new beginning.Da: Freja følte en rolig beslutsomhed over sig.En: Freja felt a calm determination over her.Da: På vej hjem gennem det stille, sneklædte København, mærkede Freja, hvordan beslutningen fyldte hende med styrke.En: On her way home through the quiet, snow-covered København, Freja felt how the decision filled her with strength.Da: Hun vidste, at vejen ikke ville være let, men hun følte sig klar.En: She knew the path wouldn't be easy, but she felt ready.Da: Kunstens verden ventede, og Freja var klar til at træde ind i den.En: The world of art awaited, and Freja was ready to step into it.Da: Det nye år startede med mulighed, og Freja var klar til at male sin egen fremtid.En: The New Year started with possibility, and Freja was ready to paint her own future.

Today's episode features Janet Attwood, bestselling author, speaker, passion coach, Transcendental Meditation teacher, Ayurveda advocate, and creator of the globally celebrated program The Passion Test.You can explore Janet's work and take The Passion Test at: www.thepassiontest.comWith more than 20 books and a lifetime devoted to helping people discover what lights them up, Janet joins us to share her wisdom on how to stay creatively inspired, remove limiting beliefs, and live a truly passionate life.Janet is the creator of The Passion Test, a powerful self-discovery process that helps you get crystal clear on what matters most in your life. Through her teachings, Janet empowers individuals to stop living life on autopilot and instead reach into their genius, uncover their gifts, and share them with the world.Her central message: Passion fuels purpose, and purpose fuels joy.In this episode (excerpted from an interview with Mark in 2021), Janet guides us through a reflection on:1. What Passion Really IsPassion is what you love.What you care about.What gets you out of bed in the morning.What lights your inner fire.And everyone has the desire to live a passionate life because we want to know we are not simply drifting—we want to create.2. Why Clarity MattersJanet explains that the Passion Test is filled with exercises that help you get so clear on your desires that when you close your eyes, you can actually see the life you want to create.It is an inside-out process—noticing the visions, feelings, and desires that arise when you ask:“When my life is ideal, I am…”3. Becoming a “Manifestation Magnet”Janet teaches the ancient Vedic principle:“Curving back on myself, I create again and again.”Through intentional reflection — across career, relationships, health, spirituality, lifestyle, and your environment — you begin to see the elements that truly matter to you.With enough clarity, vision turns to magnetism.The people, places, and opportunities begin to appear. The Formula for Living a Passionate LifeJanet shares her signature three-step formula:1. INTENTIONGet crystal clear on what you want.Take the Passion Test to identify your top five passions.2. ATTENTIONWhat you put your attention on grows.Focus your energy on what you choose to create — not what is lacking.3. NO TENSIONDo all you can do…and then surrender.Let go. Trust. Allow something even better to arrive.This is when manifestation accelerates.This is when passion turns into reality.And to learn more about The Peace Room, our Reiki treatments, healing workshops, and meditation resources, visit:www.thepeaceroom.love Thank you for listening, and thank yourself for taking 5 Minutes of Peace today.Join us again whenever you need a moment of calm, clarity, and connection.
