We've been sold a lie.That waiting is noble. That patience is passive. That if you just sit still long enough, life will eventually hand you what you want.Wrong.Waiting does not give you permission to do nothing.In this episode, I break down why it's better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war. Because even when you're not “in the fight”… preparation is still the mission.Think about it:You're stuck on a goal? You can still sharpen your skills.Conditions aren't ideal? You can still build systems.You're not sure what to do next? You can still evaluate your resources and your time.Too many people sit in a fog of “someday” and convince themselves they're being patient… when really, they're just stuck.Here's the truth. Progress doesn't always mean action. But it never means inaction.Use the quiet moments to train.To plan.To build a better version of yourself so that when the opportunity does show up, you're not scrambling… you're ready.Listen in and stop letting “waiting” become your excuse to waste time.Please Give A Review If you like the show, it'd be awesome if you could take 10 seconds and leave a review on Apple Podcasts (click here to leave a review) Connect With Stephen Visit our website at www.lifebuilder.co Connect with me on LinkedIN Get the show and additional episodes on YouTube About the Podcast If working a 9-5 for 60 years so you can retire with a little money and die a few years later is what you want to do, then this is not the podcast for you.

Shaun Murphy — Army Staff Sergeant, educator, artist, speaker, and author — joins the show to share a story that stretches from Brownsville, Brooklyn to standing beside Michelle Obama, with many pivotal stops along the way. We peel the layers back on his upbringing: growing up in a single-parent household, losing his father to gun violence at age six, and navigating life between hard lessons and harder streets. Murphy opens up about trauma, family, and growth in real time, using music like “Letter to Dad” as both a form of therapy and a platform to explore generational pain. We also dive deep into the military years — from panicking on the bus to basic training, to finding discipline through drill sergeant fire and “dime on the barrel” determination. From there, we follow his next chapter: party promoter in Missouri → broke veteran in NY → mail clerk at NYU → classroom educator → national Teach for America leader. It all leads to one powerful pivot: when Murph decided that his voice, his story, and his sound needed a stage of their own. You'll hear how music became his mission — including the creation of “Mister Motivation: The Audio Collection”, his decision to study greats like Jay-Z and Common, and the story behind standout tracks like “Temple,” “W.H.Y.,” and “Actin' Different” featuring Beanz from Rhythm & Flow. Shaun also breaks down the mindset behind his Core 4 (Body, Business, Balance, Being), the real power of vulnerability, and why he studies the wisdom of people on their deathbeds. These topics and more are covered on this episode. About Our Guest: Shaun “Mister Motivation” Murphy Shaun Murphy is a Brooklyn-born veteran, educator, and motivational artist whose mission is to equip others with the tools to rise — mentally, spiritually, and professionally. A former Staff Sergeant in the U.S. Army, Shaun went on to teach middle school and high school before becoming a college professor and national Teach for America leader. He is a certified Mental Health First Aid Instructor and the creator of Mister Motivation: The Audio Collection — a genre-bending project blending spoken word, hip-hop, and life coaching. Shaun is the founder of the Breakthrough Bunker, a transformational platform that helps people redefine what's possible, and the author of the Amazon bestseller Unbreakable Valor (May 2025).

How do we create truly inclusive coaching spaces where everyone feels a sense of belonging? In this episode we reflect on the role of coaches in fostering environments rooted in diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB). As we prepared for our upcoming Coaching Summit, it felt important to open this conversation up to share our own insights and challenges around this essential topic. When we think about DEIB in coaching, we are reminded that this is not about achieving perfection or ticking boxes. Instead, it's about holding curiosity and awareness for the lived experiences and identities our clients bring into the coaching space. We discuss how our own identities, privileges, and unconscious biases influence not only who we are as coaches but also how we create the coaching environment. Throughout the episode, we I reflect on why this work matters so deeply to us personally. Our own motivation comes from recognising the privilege we have experienced throughout our lives. We are driven by a desire to create spaces where people feel seen, valued, and able to be their whole selves. We break down what diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging mean within a coaching context: Diversity: Acknowledging the broad range of identities and lived experiences. Equity: Recognising not everyone starts from the same place and ensuring fair access. Inclusion: Intentionally creating spaces where people feel respected and heard. Belonging: Moving beyond inclusion to that felt sense of connection and acceptance. These are not abstract concepts for us, they sit at the heart of how we approach coaching, particularly in group or team settings where systemic influences are more pronounced. We also explore the discomfort coaches may feel: the fear of ‘getting it wrong' or unintentionally causing harm. But avoiding these conversations entirely is not the answer. We encourage leaning into bravery, curiosity, and reflective practice. We discuss: How to navigate conversations about identity, privilege, and systems with sensitivity and openness. The role of supervision in supporting us to notice when our biases show up. The importance of language and accessibility in creating inclusive spaces. The ethical tensions that can arise when coaching within organisations still rooted in inequality. Ultimately, this episode is about growth over perfection. DEIB is a lifelong commitment, one where our openness to learning will shape the impact we have as coaches. We hope this conversation invites you to reflect on your own practice and inspires you to take small, meaningful steps towards deeper inclusion. If this resonates with you, you are warmly invited to join us for our upcoming Coaching Summit on 29th July, where we will be exploring DEIB in coaching even further.

Our identities and biases influence the coaching space, whether we are conscious of it or not. Inclusive coaching requires bravery, curiosity, and reflective practice. Asking thoughtful, open questions can invite deeper reflection on identity and systemic influences. Supervision is a vital tool for exploring blind spots and deepening our DEIB practice.

Joburg has passed a new by-law forcing homeowners and businesses to apply for permission before installing CCTV cameras facing public spaces like streets and pavements. The City says it’s about privacy and data protection, but OUTA disagrees, calling it unconstitutional and an overreach of power. Critics argue it could weaken crime prevention and unfairly police private property. Legal battles are already underway to have the by-law scrapped. OUTA CEO Wayne Duvenage tells us more...

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes You Already Have Permission to Go For It July 16, 2025 | Episode - 5138 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description After 20 years of coaching thousands of people, I figured out something powerful this morning that'll blow your mind. Every single successful person I've worked with has one thing in common - and I bet you're living it right now. They're brilliant, experienced, and incredibly successful on the surface. But here's the kicker - they're also feeling suffocated at the same time. They're stuck building other people's dreams instead of their own. The solution? It's simpler than you think, and I'm firing you up to take action today. Featured Story I shared my personal breaking point from 2006 when everything changed. I was stuck in TV and radio, making decent money but feeling completely lost. Then life hit me like a freight train - my wife Cheryl got cancer and was gone in less than 100 days at just 46 years old. That moment taught me life's way too short to spend another minute doing something that doesn't drive you. I refused to arrive at retirement never having really lived, so I started the Daily Boost and began helping people stop waiting and start living. Important Points Most successful people are stuck building other people's dreams at their own expense, creating a feeling of being successful yet suffocated simultaneously. Every person I've coached over 20 years has needed the same thing - permission from someone to say it's okay to go after what they really want. There are two critical areas you must master: facing your passion and funding your passion, because if you can't figure out how to pay for it, you won't do it. Memorable Quotes "Most people are stuck building the dreams of other people at their expense." "You have my permission. You have God's permission. You have the universe's permission to do what you feel you need to do." "If you don't know your purpose, your purpose is to find your purpose." Scott's Three-Step Approach Give yourself permission right now to pursue what makes you smile - that thing you already know you want to do but haven't acted on. Find someone who will support your decision and help you work through the practical details of making it happen. Focus on solving both facing your passion and funding your passion simultaneously, because you need both to make it work. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

You know, something I've learned over the years—something that becomes clearer the more time I spend with a camera in hand—is that photography is just as much about relationships as it is about light, shadow, and subject matter. Not just relationships with the people in front of the lens, but with the communities we enter, the land we stand on, and the cultures we interact with. And one word that keeps coming up, quietly but persistently, is permission...

Welcome back to the Milspouse Summer Reset Series — a special collection of episodes designed to help you make small, intentional shifts that lead to big transformation. Each week, we're digging into one of the 10 key focus areas from the Clarity Compass, a free life assessment tool available inside the Milspouse Transformation Guide. This week, we're talking about a vital, but often strained, part of military life: your relationship with your spouse or significant other. To help us navigate this conversation, I'm thrilled to welcome back Dr. Lindsay Cavanagh — military spouse, psychologist, marriage coach, and host of the Married After Kids podcast. Our first conversation remains one of the most downloaded episodes of the show, and for good reason. Dr. Lindsay gets it — the deployments, the stress, the missed moments — and she brings both compassion and clarity to the realities of military marriage. Together, we're diving into how to keep your relationship strong, connected, and life-giving, even when military life makes it anything but easy.

The Aries Last Quarter Moon is on Thu. July 17 (5:38 PM PDT) at 25º40' Aries-Cancer. Both the Last Quarter phase and the Moon in Aries love a call to action-move toward the finish line with purpose. The Moon's Sabian symbol is 26 Aries, A man possessed of more gifts than he can hold, and the Sun is on 26 Cancer, Contentment and happiness in luxury, people reading on davenports. [4:30] This is the Last Quarter in a lunar phase family cycle (LPFC) that began at the New Moon/Solar Eclipse on April 19, 2023, at 29º50' Aries. The First Quarter phase (first action point) of this LPFC on Jan. 17, 2024, at 27º31' Aries, and the Full Moon (awareness point) was on Oct. 17, 2024, at 24º35' Aries. [6:41] Void-of-Course (VOC) Moon periods. On Tue. July 15 (10:10 AM PDT), the Moon in Pisces trines the Sun in Cancer. It's VOC for 11 hours, 22 minutes, then enters Aries (9:32 PM PDT). Go with the flow instead of trying to force things that are not coming naturally. [7:59] The Moon in Aries squares the Sun on Thu. July 17 (5:38 PM PDT). It's VOC for 7 hours, 20 minutes, and enters Taurus on Fri. July 18 (12:58 PM PDT). Use this VOC Moon period to assert your needs in a way that others will probably respect, even if they aren't always pleased with your point of view. [9:05] On Sat., July 19 (11:43 PM PDT), the Moon in Taurus sextiles the Sun in Cancer. It's VOC for 3 hours, 39 minutes, then enters Gemini on Sunday, July 20 (3:22 AM PDT). Spend relaxed time with loved ones, and pledge to make such get-togethers a more frequent occasion. [10:37] Mercury stations retrograde on Thu. July 17 (9:45 PM PDT) at 15º34' Leo, on the Sabian symbol 16 Leo, Sunshine just after a storm. Mercury will be retrograde until Aug. 11, when it turns direct at 04º14' Leo. Retrogrades are the universe's way of slowing us down for a bit, so keep your schedule lighter than you normally would. This retrograde is, in a sense, our permission slip to hit pause. [12:48] On Fri., July 18 (6:37 AM PDT), Mercury retrograde sextiles Venus at 15°34' Leo-Gemini. This aspect invites us to revisit conversations or creative ideas we previously put on hold. Catch up on your emails and your texts on this day. The Sabian symbol for Mercury is 16 Leo, Sunshine just after a storm. The Sabian symbol for Venus is 16 Gemini, A woman Suffragist haranguing. [14:54] Mars conjoins the Moon's South Node on Sunday, July 20 (6:59 PM PDT), at 19º38' Virgo on the Sabian symbol 20 Virgo, An automobile caravan. Adjust your expectations to a somewhat more reasonable standard or level. Refuse to judge others and yourself based on imperfection, and avoid criticizing.

Damo opens Episode 152 with a personal and emotional story about the tragic death of Azir Harris, who was shot and killed in Philadelphia over the Fourth of July weekend. That pain sets the tone for a wide-ranging, unfiltered conversation with CWO2 Donald Banks—a discussion that spans grief, leadership, Detroit culture, chronic illness, and purpose. From gun violence in his hometown to navigating life with Multiple Sclerosis, CWO2 Banks brings insight, heart, and an unwavering sense of service to the mic. Donald shares what drew him into the Navy straight out of Detroit, why he doesn't want a retirement ceremony, and how his MS diagnosis has reshaped his day-to-day responsibilities, family dynamics, and leadership style. He offers firsthand knowledge of the Navy's EMPLOY program—an alternative path that allows Sailors with medical diagnoses to remain active duty—and discusses how it helped him stay in uniform while managing symptoms like fatigue, vision loss, and nerve pain. The conversation moves through everything from beard policies and CPAP struggles to Navy vs. civilian dental experiences and the emotional toll of recent national tragedies, including the death of CSSN Angelina Resendiz and widespread flooding in Texas. The episode also celebrates Detroit's impact on hip-hop culture, with top-five rapper debates, reflections on the city's sound influencing the mainstream, and shout-outs to artists like Blade Icewood, Payroll Giovanni, Royce da 5'9”, and Obie Trice. From discussing emotional intelligence in leadership to breaking down why “Burger Day” fell off and why some morale events just don't hit the mark, this conversation is as real as it gets. Whether it's reflecting on books like Chop Wood, Carry Water and The Way of the Superior Man, or calling out the silent weight that leaders carry as they rise through the ranks, this episode captures the soul of what it means to serve and survive—physically, emotionally, and culturally. ⸻ About Our Guest Chief Warrant Officer 2 Donald Banks is a Detroit native and 22-year Navy veteran currently serving as a Food Service Officer. Rising through the enlisted ranks before commissioning, he is known for his authentic leadership style, deep connection to his Sailors, and transparency about his personal challenges—including his recent diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis. CWO2 Banks is a passionate advocate for the Navy's EMPLOY program, an avid hip-hop fan, and the mind behind the personal lifestyle brand “Stag,” symbolized by the monarch butterfly. With a strong belief in legacy over recognition, he continues to serve with resilience, humility, and a drive to elevate others.

Lucinda discusses the importance of cultivating a learning culture within organisations, emphasising that learning should be embedded in every aspect of organisational life rather than limited to traditional training courses. Drawing on insights from industry experts, the episode explores the concept of psychological safety and its role in fostering an environment where employees feel safe to ask questions, admit mistakes, and challenge the status quo. KEY TAKEAWAYS A learning culture is defined as one where learning is embedded in every aspect of organisational life, moving beyond traditional training courses to create an environment that encourages continuous development and innovation. Creating a psychologically safe environment is crucial for fostering a learning culture. Employees should feel safe to ask questions, admit mistakes, and challenge ideas without fear of embarrassment or punishment. The framework of Environment, Permission, and Culture (EPC) is essential for establishing a learning culture. Organisations need to create the right environment, give employees permission to learn, and cultivate a culture that values learning at all levels. Learning and development initiatives should align with the organisation's strategic goals to ensure that learning is purposeful and contributes to overall business success. This alignment helps justify investment in learning programs. BEST MOMENTS "Having opportunities to learn and grow is one of those key questions when you look at employee engagement." "We need to create this environment where it's okay for people to speak up, to ask questions, to admit mistakes, or admit they don't know the answer without the fear of embarrassment or punishment." "A high-performing learning culture doesn't come from one-off training, sticking plasters, and it doesn't come from ticking boxes." "If you look at where your strategic challenges are for the business, make sure that the L&D is aligned to that."

There's this quiet habit so many of you have… AND it's costing you in the courtroom. You're waiting. Waiting to be liked. Waiting to be approved of. Waiting for some signal that it's safe to lead. But here's the truth: Nobody hands you authority in that courtroom, you CLAIM it. In this episode, I'm diving into what I call the Permission Principle. So many of you are holding back without even realizing it.
A little insight that came through this morning around granting yourself unconditional permission in your life (in several different areas, it will be specific to you!) Enjoy the episode! Join the Manifestation Club/Telegram Tier!

In today's episode, Colleen walks us through a high-stakes moment with one of her clients—standing at the emotional fork in the road between old habits and radical self-responsibility. After a tense night at her childhood home, surrounded by triggering family dynamics and judgment, this client found herself spiraling into shame after a single shot of tequila… and a familiar pattern of self-attack. With her sister likely ready to confront her, she reached out for support—not to fix the situation, but to reclaim her power before it got hijacked. What unfolds is a masterclass in nervous system protection, mindset choice, and learning how to stop reacting to the stories in your head (and the ones projected onto you). This episode is your reminder that peace isn't earned through explanation—it's chosen in the moment, with breath, presence, and courage. If you've ever felt like you have to prove, fix, or defend your choices just to feel okay again—this one will show you another way.
