In the 1920s, Birmingham was known as “The Magic City.”Steel, smoke, opportunity—and something much darker.It began in a small corner store.Then another.And another.Grocers were attacked in the dead of night. Families were slaughtered in their beds.The weapon was simple. Primitive. Personal.An axe.For four years, fear ruled the streets. Doors were barricaded. Neighborhoods formed militias. The police were desperate enough to consult Ouija boards… and corrupt enough to let the Ku Klux Klan lead the investigation.Newspapers blamed a shadowy killer they called “Henry the Hacker.”But the truth was far more terrifying.This wasn't the story of one monster.It was the story of a city full of them. LINKS FOR MY DEBUT NOVEL, THE FORGOTTEN BOROUGHwww.hauntedamericanhistory.comBarnes and Noble -   https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-forgotten-borough-christopher-feinstein/1148274794?ean=9798319693334AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQPQD68SEbookGOOGLE: https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=S5WCEQAAQBAJ&pli=1KOBO: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the-forgotten-borough-2?sId=a10cf8af-5fbd-475e-97c4-76966ec87994&ssId=DX3jihH_5_2bUeP1xoje_SMASHWORD: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1853316 !!

Financial content is everywhere. Personal finance is the second most talked about topic on the internet. And yet, people are more stressed about money than ever before. American household debt sits at an all-time high of $18.4 trillion and the personal savings rate hit 1.4% in July 2025, the lowest in history.Something isn't working.You've seen it with your own clients: they nod along, say they understand, maybe even seem motivated. But then nothing changes. They show up to the next session disconnected or discouraged.In this episode, we're kicking off a three-part series that addresses the disconnect between what we teach people about money and what actually helps them change the way they manage it. We call it the knowing-doing disconnect, and it's costing millions of people the financial freedom they're working so hard to achieve.This isn't about creating more content or giving better advice. The problem runs deeper than that. Telling clients what to do and helping them feel better isn't enough to create lasting financial change. This week, we're walking through the sobering reality of where we are as a profession and introducing the foundation for what needs to shift.This is part one of a three-part series.Links & Resources:Ultimate Growth GuideJoin the Facebook groupKey Takeaways:The knowing-doing disconnect is real. People can know what to do with their money and even feel supported, but that doesn't mean they'll take action or see lasting change.Financial stress doesn't capture the full picture. What people are experiencing is despair, hopelessness, and exhaustion. More financial content isn't solving the problem. Personal finance is the second most talked about topic on the internet, yet financial stress is at an all-time high and savings are at historic lows.Financial literacy is knowledge; financial coaching is application. We can learn how to eat better, but if we don't actually change how we eat, we don't get healthier. The same is true for money.The way we're approaching financial change isn't working. If our mission is to help people experience real change in their financial lives, we have to acknowledge we're not fulfilling that mission.Coaching is a partnership, not just sitting back and watching. It's about providing guidance and training, not telling people to figure it out on their own.We're not doing good enough, Coach. If we care about helping people, we must do better, starting with understanding what's missing from our profession.

In this engaging conversation, Lori Adams-Brown interviews Mita Mallick about her book "The Devil Emails at Midnight: What Good Leaders Can Learn from Bad Bosses." Mita shares personal stories and insights on leadership, workplace culture, and the impact of bad bosses on mental health. The discussion covers the importance of self-awareness, setting boundaries, and the role of personal relationships in professional settings. The genesis of Mita's book started with a personal experience of her mother's home being flooded. Mita found an old notebook with stories about bad bosses, which inspired her book. Fear-driven workplaces may achieve short-term results but harm long-term culture. Mita shares a 'water test' to identify toxic workplaces during interviews. Setting boundaries is crucial for respect and inclusion in the workplace. Personal relationships can complicate professional decisions, especially in leadership roles. Mita emphasizes the importance of self-care for effective leadership. The conversation highlights the normalization of toxic behavior in workplaces. Mita advises doing reference checks on potential employers. The book encourages readers to learn from bad bosses to become better leaders.

Ever had a brilliant idea that never made it past your brain? Or watched a dream die because someone poked too many holes in it before you even had a chance to build it?In this episode of Ambitious, George Bryant is back to teach one of the most powerful frameworks I've ever learned. This is the Dream Storming model, originally created by Walt Disney to bring Disneyland to life. We're breaking down the three core buckets (Dreamer, Builder, and Protector), the exact rules for each state, and how to recognize which bucket you naturally live in versus which one you go to when triggered.But here's where it gets really good: this framework isn't just for your business. George and I get vulnerable about how we use this in our long-distance relationship, how it's transformed the way we communicate during conflict, and why understanding someone's dominant state can completely shift the dynamic in your partnerships, friendships, and even with your kids.00:00 Introduction12:25 The Walt Disney Dream Storming Story18:09 Applying the Dream Storming Model33:50 Understanding the Dreamer Bucket34:32 Transitioning to the Builder Bucket35:04 Entering the Protector Bucket35:22 Applying the Dream Storming Process36:02 Facilitating Dream Storming with Teams36:40 The Importance of Discipline in Dream Storming45:41 Interpersonal Applications of Dream Storming50:29 The Power of Divergent Thinking53:31 Recognizing Natural and Triggered States01:05:08 Understanding the Protector Mode01:05:50 Navigating Conversations with Awareness01:12:03 Applying the Framework in Personal and Professional LifeConnect with George: InstagramWebsite  To join the Ambitious Network for free, click HERE.

Send us a textRHOSLC Season 6 Episode 8 Loose Lips Sink Friend ShipsThe yacht trip on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City continues with a heavy dose of hangovers and even heavier drama. Bronwyn wakes up on the deck after another rough night with Britani, while Heather nurses her own hangover and reflects with Whitney about what to do when a friend won't admit to wrongdoing. Lisa, hoping for sympathy, confides in Meredith about how she was treated the night before, but her attempts to clear the air fall flat when the rest of the group scatters the moment she appears. Things take a turn when Britani starts talking about Bronwyn within earshot, sparking yet another storm of overheard gossip.The tension explodes as Bronwyn tells Mary and Angie what she overheard, and soon everyone's accusing everyone of something. On the way to their snorkeling excursion, Bronwyn claims Britani was flirting with a crew member, and then Angie stirs things further by alleging Lisa once said her friend made out with Todd while he “farted the entire time.” Lisa denies nothing convincingly, while Mary delivers the unforgettable line, “Why is he farting?” The laughter is short-lived as the group struggles to maintain civility amid the island sunshine.A trip to the picturesque Tobago Cays offers temporary peace. Heather swims with stingrays, Whitney wins a beach drinking game, and Angie manages to injure her hand in yet another slapstick moment that brings Captain Jason running. Back on the yacht, Heather hosts a “Zombie Night” dinner meant to resurrect old fights for fun—but, predictably, the evening descends into real conflict. Bronwyn confronts Lisa for dragging her family into gossip, and Lisa promises to stop, though the tension between them simmers beneath the surface.Just when it seems the women might end the night on a calm note, Britani—fresh from being sick overboard—reignites chaos by bringing up a TikTok about Meredith's husband's alleged indiscretions. Meredith snaps, calling Britani a liar and throwing something across the table as Whitney confirms she saw the video too. Captain Jason arrives mid-fight to find the women screaming and slinging accusations once again. By the end of “Loose Lips Sink Friendships,” the only thing truly afloat is the drama, proving that even paradise can't keep these Housewives from sinking their own friendships.TakeawaysThe title 'Loose Lips, Sink Friendships' resonates across all franchises.The yacht trip highlights the complexities of friendships among the cast.Trust issues are prevalent, especially regarding Lisa's honesty.Confrontations often escalate quickly, leading to dramatic moments.Humor, like fart jokes, plays a significant role in the show's appeal.Personal insights about snorkeling reveal character depth.The thematic dinner adds a creative twist to the episode.Emotional outbursts often lead to physical reactions, like throwing things.Meredith and Seth's relationship is a recurring topic of concern.Family dynamics and their impact on friendships are crucial themes.Support the showhttps://www.wewinewhenever.com/

When you've been in eCommerce long enough, you start to see the cycles — the rise of new platforms, the decline of others, and the constant search for what's next. In this episode, I sit down with Neal Goyal, SVP at PostPilot, to talk about how he's helping brands rediscover one of the most powerful, proven, and now AI-enhanced channels out there: direct mail.  Neal shares how PostPilot is turning mail into a data-driven, performance-marketing channel for modern brands — one that's not only defensible against AI disruption, but also amplified by it. What I loved most about this conversation is Neal's clarity and conviction about where commerce is headed. He's seen the evolution of digital saturation, rising acquisition costs, and "tech bloat" — and he believes the brands that will win are those who balance smart automation with authentic connection.  PostPilot is doing just that, helping brands cut through the digital noise, drive measurable results, and build stronger customer relationships with physical mail — reinvented for today's marketers. Here are a few highlights from our conversation: *  AI Meets Direct Mail: How PostPilot uses data and automation to make direct mail as dynamic and trackable as digital.   * Defensible Channels: Why direct mail remains one of the few marketing channels that AI can't replace — but can help scale.   * The Meta for Mail: How PostPilot is creating an acquisition engine that behaves like a digital ad platform, with the intimacy of print.   * Performance That's Measurable: How brands can track incrementality, integrate with Klaviyo, and optimize ROI in real time.   * Culture and Customer Obsession: The story behind PostPilot's founders and why customer service is their ultimate growth advantage.   Join me, Ramon Vela, as we listen to the episode to hear how Neal and the PostPilot team are reinventing an old-school medium for the modern era — proving that, in a world dominated by digital, real connection still delivers.   For more on PostPilot, visit: https://www.postpilot.com/ If you enjoyed this episode, please leave The Story of a Brand Show a rating and review.  Plus, don't forget to follow us on Apple and Spotify.  Your support helps us bring you more content like this! * Today's Sponsors: Saral - The Influencer OS: https://www.getsaral.com/demo SARAL is the all-in-one influencer platform that finds brand-aligned creators, automates outreach, and manages everything in one place.

What do you do when someone looks you straight in the eye and lies again? When the truth is sitting right there, plain as day, yet they twist it, deny it, and make you question your sanity? In this episode of Infinite Life, Infinite Wisdom, Susan Grau gets real about what it means to live life on life's terms, especially when you're dealing with manipulative or dishonest people who twist the truth and leave you questioning your own reality. She dives into the painful experience of crazy making, where someone's lies and gaslighting can make you doubt what you know to be true. Susan shares personal stories of being caught in webs of deceit and how she's learned that sometimes, the best response isn't confrontation but silence. She reminds listeners that truth doesn't need defending, and that protecting your peace often means walking away rather than engaging with dysfunction. Through her own journey and years in Al-Anon, Susan reveals how trusting your intuition, setting boundaries, and refusing to spin the web alongside others can lead to freedom and self-respect. This heartfelt episode is a powerful reminder that not every battle needs to be fought and that your calm, not your argument, is your greatest strength. “When you're right, there's nothing to defend.

Mainstream conversations about artificial intelligence tend to center around the technology's economic and large-scale impacts. Yet it's at the individual level where we're seeing AI's most potent effects, and they may not be what you think. Even in the limited time that AI chatbots have been publicly available (like Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc.), studies show that our increasing reliance on them wears down our ability to think and communicate effectively, and even erodes our capacity to nurture healthy attachments to others. In essence, AI is atrophying the skills that sit at the core of what it means to be human. Can we as a society pause to consider the risks this technology poses to our well-being, or will we keep barreling forward with its development until it's too late? In this episode, Nate is joined by Nora Bateson and Zak Stein to explore the multifaceted ways that AI is designed to exploit our deepest social vulnerabilities, and the risks this poses to human relationships, cognition, and society. They emphasize the need for careful consideration of how technology shapes our lives and what it means for the future of human connection. Ultimately, they advocate for a deeper engagement with the embodied aspects of living alongside other people and nature as a way to counteract our increasingly digital world. What can we learn from past mass adaptation of technologies such as the invention of the world wide web or GPS when it comes to AI's increasing presence in our lives? How does artificial intelligence expose and intensify the ways our culture is already eroding our mental health and capacity for human connection? And lastly, how might we imagine futures where technology magnifies the best sides of humanity – like creativity, cooperation, and care – rather than accelerating our most destructive instincts?  (Conversation recorded on October 14th, 2025)   About Nora Bateson: Nora Bateson is an award-winning filmmaker, writer and educator, as well as President of the International Bateson Institute, based in Sweden. Her work asks the question "How can we  improve our perception of the complexity we live within, so we may improve our interaction with the world?" An international lecturer, researcher and writer, Nora wrote, directed and produced the award-winning documentary, An Ecology of Mind, a portrait of her father, Gregory Bateson. Her work brings the fields of biology, cognition, art, anthropology, psychology, and information technology together into a study of the patterns in ecology of living systems. Her book, Small Arcs of Larger Circles, released by Triarchy Press, UK, 2016 is a revolutionary personal approach to the study of systems and complexity.   About Zak Stein: Dr. Zak Stein is a philosopher of education, as well as a Co-founder of the Center for World Philosophy and Religion. He is also the Co-founder of Civilization Research Institute, the Consilience Project, and Lectica, Inc. He is the author of dozens of published papers and two books, including Education in a Time Between Worlds.

This week we are discussing 4 myths (that we think keep people stuck) in the recovery community.  Patrick and I deeply believe in our mission to bring education and awareness around recovery because we know the freedom in your life that it can bring.    That being said, there are several beliefs in the recovery and faith communities that we see keeping people from reaching their full potential in life.    4 myths we discuss today: 1. Your suffering is holy 2. Anyone who wants to lead a recovery group should (even if they aren't in recovery) 3. Addiction is permanent  4. Women can't have autonomy in marriage   In contrast to the above, we believe in: 1. Personal responsibility and boundaries 2. Lead by example 3. Addiction is reversible and you can achieve full freedom from it 4. Men and women are equal in marriage some we both lead each other in different areas   Additional episodes you may like based on todays' content:   Sobriety vs Recovery:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/recoveru-betrayal-trauma-sex-addiction-support-betrayal/id1674653111?i=1000684064277     Forgiveness: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/recoveru-betrayal-trauma-sex-addiction-support-betrayal/id1674653111?i=1000629370575   We hope this episode is encouraging and shines a light on the possibilities of true health.   If you are a betrayed partner and would like to connect with Kylene for 1:1 coaching support, please click this link and book a free connection call: https://p.bttr.to/3ttk0Ql   Submit Questions and Feedback to the RecoverU podcast here: https://forms.gle/uww5sWK1WP8T8dbc8    Join the free RecoverU Facebook page for betrayed partners: www.facebook.com/groups/recoveru2    For addicted spouses check our puredesire.org and soulrefiner.org Follow Kylene: On TikTok: @KyleneTerhune  On IG: @KyleneTerhune

In this conversation, Mike Ricksecker delves into the mysteries of ancient civilizations, exploring the concept of stargates and their potential connections to consciousness and energy hotspots.

The conversation also touches on the significance of ley lines and Earth's magnetic currents, suggesting a deeper interconnectedness within the universe. In this conversation, BT and Mike discusses the significance of drumming ceremonies, the mysteries surrounding Skinwalker Ranch, and the potential connections between time travel and Stargates. He explores the role of interdimensional beings, the symbolism of ancient Egyptian temples, and the global perspectives on Stargates.

Hey everyone,This week, I'm sharing my experience moving from a small firm to a big one—and what that's meant for my career and growth over the last year nine months. This year had a lot of ups and downs (this episode was recorded in June and I am just getting it out…). I am happy for Nicolai's support through this and I look forward to many more episodes coming out. What would you like to see more of?Personal takeaways:* Flexibility: Turns out, the big company isn't as slow-moving as I thought. Milestones and structure actually bring freedom to explore, innovate, and make mistakes.* Expanded toolbox: The more people you connect with—across disciplines—the better you get at your job. Every new conversation and collaboration adds a new tool.* Resources: There's more access to technical codes, sample projects, and experts, but also space to build my own reusable tools, like spreadsheets for designs.* Soft skills: Volunteering and joining internal networks (like Enlace for Hispanic engineers) have grown my network and boosted my confidence. These bigger companies have endless training resources.* Endless career pivots: You can chart new paths, propose new ideas, and switch directions—all without leaving the company.Action items for you:* If you're thinking of switching firm sizes or career tracks, connect with someone who's done it. Be curious, not cautious.* Start a conversation with colleagues outside your “bubble.” There's wisdom everywhere.* Volunteer, join an internal group, or attend a conference—don't wait for permission, but do learn the process for asking.* Reflect on whether your workflows and resources are making you more effective—and start building (or sharing) something reusable.As always, keep an open mind. If your current job isn't sparking joy, experiment with new options before making a leap.

When she discovered the idea of a personal curriculum, today's guest couldn't wait to apply this concept to her reading life. Amy St. Amand, a primary care clinical pharmacist from Rhode Island, wants to know a little bit about a whole lot of things. She's working to build a personal learning plan that encompasses a variety of her assorted interests, and she's here today for Anne's help in developing and refining her selected topics. Anne couldn't wait to hear more about Amy's approach, why this idea resonated with her so much, and her progress so far.
