If you've ever looked around your house, your calendar, or your marriage and thought, Why is this so hard for me?—this conversation is for you. In this episode, Ginny Yurich talks with licensed therapist and Struggle Care founder KC Davis about why overwhelm isn't a character flaw, a lack of discipline, or a sign you're doing life wrong. KC names the invisible mental load of daily living—meals, laundry, cleaning, caregiving, relationships—and explains why these repetitive responsibilities were never meant to be proof of your worth. Together, Ginny and KC explore practical, compassionate ways to lower that load without adding shame. From reframing household work as morally neutral, to letting go of “just clean as you go,” to rethinking fairness in marriages and families, this episode offers language and tools that actually help. KC shares gentle strategies for building momentum when you're stuck, wisdom for dividing labor and rest more honestly, and a powerful reminder that community is built through realness and not perfection. This is an episode to save, share, and return to when you need permission to stop measuring your life by impossible standards.

Growth gets real when effort meets reality. In today's episode, Kevin and Alan strip away a comfortable idea in self-improvement that sounds right but quietly caps results. Consistency matters. Personal development matters. But progress stalls when discipline disconnects from real-world decision-making.This is a grounded conversation about long-term growth, identity, and what actually drives performance over time. No hype. No shortcuts. Just a clear look at how serious self-improvement works when pressure, competition, and standards are real. If you care about building consistency that lasts and making decisions that compound, this episode will sharpen how you think. Listen closely. This one separates intention from execution._______________________Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training As a user, do you still use search engines or have completely defaulted to AI? How will this shift reshape the agency world? How will ads work when people are only getting the one answer they need? Most agency owners are still treating SEO like it's 2012 — optimizing keywords, buying backlinks, and praying to the Google gods. But search has already changed. People are asking AI for answers, not Googling for links. And if you want your agency or your personal brand to stay visible in this new era, the rules are completely different. Today's featured guest will unpack the shift from SEO to AEO and why most businesses are invisible to AI without even realizing it. Kasim Aslam is one of the world's leading voices on Answer Engine Optimization. He runs one of the largest AEO communities and leads a six person research team that has analyzed millions of AI citations to understand how large language models choose their sources. He is also the author of The AEO Blueprint and the founder of multiple companies, including a staffing agency, a mastermind, and AEO.co. Kasim has spent the past year deep in the trenches studying how AI crawlers gather, filter, and prioritize information. When it comes to AEO, nobody has more real data. In this episode, we'll discuss: SEO is over. Understanding AEO. Why brands may get lost in LLMs. The quiet Google change that just changed everything in AI citations. The future of ads.

Why SEO Is No Longer Enough: The Rise of Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) To understand Answer Engine Optimization, we must first understand that, despite what some agencies may be saying, it is not the same as SEO. Traditional search engines prioritize links. That is why entire industries exist around buying them. In the world of LLMs, backlinks barely matter. The number one ranking factor for AI citations is schema markup. And only 12.4% of websites have clean, validated schema. In other words, nearly 90% of brands are invisible to AI crawlers, regardless of how strong their SEO is. Schema isn't just another optimization tactic. It is the visibility layer. It is the metadata that helps LLMs understand and categorize your content. If your schema is broken or missing, AI cannot reference you even if your content is excellent. This is the equivalent of having a beautiful storefront on a street no one can find. The second key is social mentions. In the same way SEO relied on links, AEO relies on people talking about you. For instance, a TikTok comment from someone in the agency industry saying Jason Swenk is their go-to agency guy counts as an authority signal. LLMs weigh these human mentions heavily. Finally, a lot of the nuances on AEO are changing every day, but Kasim has learned that the real key is building authority, long-form content. That along with clear schema and personal brand is the future of staying in the conversation. Why Personal Authority Beats Brand Authority in AI Search One of the biggest shifts Kasim highlights is that answer engines prefer individuals. A person can write a book, earn a PhD, share opinions, create content, develop mastery, and build authority in a way brands cannot. That means generalists are in trouble. If your expertise is scattered, AI won't know how to classify you and won't choose you as an authoritative answer. Meanwhile, someone who goes deep in a single topic becomes the preferred answer. It is a shift away from corporate brand authority and toward personal authority. Authority is not spread across a company anymore. It sits with people. Agencies that hide behind a brand name will lose visibility. Personal brands that plant a flag will win. For agency owners, this is huge. You do not need a bigger brand. You need clear expertise tied to a real person. This is exactly why Jason positions all the Agency Mastery content around him. Personalities thrive. Brands get lost. Where LLMs Get Their Data (and Why That Just Changed Overnight) Kasim's research revealed that 21 percent of all AI citations once came from Reddit. YouTube followed at 18.8 percent. These platforms had deep context and raw human conversation, which LLMs love. Then Google quietly changed everything. Twenty two days before the interview, Google cut off 90% of the internet from AI crawlers by reducing search results from hundreds to ten. Because LLMs rely on deep search results (not the top ten), reducing the searchable depth limits the information AI can access - removing platforms like Reddit from the AI training pipeline. AI tools rely heavily on these deeper results for nuance. By limiting access, Google essentially removed Reddit and other community based sites from the AI food chain. This change sent shockwaves through stock prices and visibility, and most people never noticed. Google is protecting the content needed to train AI because only two organizations truly own the global knowledge graph: Google and Amazon. OpenAI and the rest are crawling, not casing, the internet, which means they operate at a major disadvantage. Google is playing statecraft. And according to Kasim, Google will win the AI race. The Rise of Screenless Search and Voice-Driven Results According to Kasim, we are quickly moving toward a screenless world. Eric Schmidt has said the screenless future is years away, not decades. And the younger generation is already there. Over 55 percent of people under 25 use voice instead of text. Voice queries require different markup, structure, and formatting, and only 0.3 percent of websites use voice schema. Meanwhile, 65 percent of all searches end in zero clicks. People are asking, getting an answer, and moving on. That number does not even include the people who have stopped using search altogether and have already shifted to answer engines. This means your future website is not for your audience. It is for AI. Kasim is rebuilding his personal site in Notion because he believes CSS-light, simple, stripped down sites will perform better for AI ingestion. We are entering a world where content is created for machines first and humans last. How Google Gemini Is Rewriting the Future of Advertising Here is a wild data point. When Kasim set up new Chromebooks for his kids, he discovered the default search engine was not Google. It was Gemini. Google owns Chrome. Google owns Chromebooks. Yet they replaced its primary revenue driver on its own device with a product that currently has no ads. This tells you where the company is headed. They are rebuilding a new knowledge graph optimized for answer engines, while competitors still reply on the old search-oriented graph. And the future ad model will be nothing like what agencies grew up on. If one answer becomes the default experience, where do ads go? How are they shown? What are users willing to tolerate? And will businesses have to give away deep content to earn visibility the same way early YouTubers and bloggers did? These questions will reshape the entire lead generation ecosystem. Data, Moats, and the K-Shaped Economy The people who win in this new world are those who own data. Not tool access or workflows. Data. Custom GPTs, custom models, and proprietary knowledge bases become your moat. We are entering a K-shaped economy. Twenty percent of people and businesses will become unstoppable because their productivity will outpace demand. Eighty percent will fall to zero. The middle disappears. That means agency owners must adapt, evolve, and lean into deep expertise. Vibe coding (the rapid, exploratory use of AI tools) and no code platforms are accelerating this divide. Kasim's team recreated a software that normally costs ten thousand a year in a weekend. Entire SaaS categories are about to be wiped out.

The Christmas story is bigger than we often imagine and closer than we realize. In this message, we explore how the God who created the universe chose to step into our world because of His great love for us. Through the birth of Jesus, we see God making a way to dwell with humanity and personally engage our lives. The story of Mary reminds us that God guides ordinary people into extraordinary moments. There is an invitation to see both the vastness of God's plan and the nearness of His heart. Recorded at Hope Church in Springfield, MO.

On this episode of Grit Meets Growth, we jump in mid-conversation—because we were already in it—and unpack what confidence really looks like when you level up: that moment when you finally feel like you belong… until you stretch again and the old self-talk comes roaring back. This is a gut-check about the quiet cost of what we've normalized—tolerating pain, drifting on the fence, letting tired become identity—and why most people don't fail in January… they fail right now by refusing to decide. Answer one question before 2026 gets here: What are you refusing to carry into another year?Five Takeaways: Confidence is built by shedding baggage. Every new “room” you enter exposes old self-talk—growth happens when you set it down and keep moving.The danger isn't January—it's now. People don't fail on New Year's Day; they fail in the last stretch by not deciding and hiding on the fence.Tolerance quietly lowers your standards. “It is what it is” can sound mature, but it often means you normalized what you never meant to live with.Choose your pain. There's pain from drifting (unhealthy body, strained marriage, draining job, loneliness) and pain from growth (discipline, tough conversations, training, action). Same coin, different outcomes.Goals don't change you—hard conversations and brotherhood do. Motivation fades; discipline + a real crew that holds you accountable is what keeps momentum alive through the holidays and into 2026.One Truth: Avoiding the hard conversation today is the fastest way to carry the same life into next year.

In “Sean Combs: The Reckoning Pt 3 — Closing Remarks”, Ern & Iso wrap up the entire Diddy discussion with their final thoughts and a bigger convo about accountability, “trickle-down” success, and why public opinion flips depending on who's on the hot seat.They break down why it feels like everybody wants one person to carry the whole blame, even though whole teams, execs, and insiders benefited when things were good. They also talk about the jury outrage, the Cassie situation, and why people often prefer the more entertaining lie over the truth. From there, the conversation expands into the ugly realities of the music business: bad contracts, 360 deals, “opportunity” vs fair pay, and why artists keep signing anyway.They close with a real message: fame can make people accept deals and compromises they'll regret later, and in the end—knowledge, lawyers, and accountability matter.Tap in, and let us know in the comments: is the culture being consistent… or just picking sides?Support the show: Like

I've said it often, but the beauty of Trump is that because he's so bad, and so horrible, he's forcing Americans to decide in real time what kind of country we want to be. And because Trump is utterly void of personal character, he's forcing the American people to answer this question: Does character matter anymore? Well, does it? How we answer that question will had profound impact on our democracy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Are you managing risk in your leases, or just hoping for the best?Flashing back to December 2023, this Retail Retold replay proves just how relevant the details still are. In this episode, host Chris Ressa breaks down one of the most underestimated risks in retail real estate leasing: possession contingencies. A lease can be fully executed, a delivery date locked in, and everyone feeling good, until the existing tenant does not leave. Without a possession contingency in place, landlords can find themselves caught between two tenants, facing delays, legal exposure, and a deal that suddenly starts to unravel. It is a reminder that possession is not a technicality; it is everything.Chris also zooms out to talk about something just as critical to long-term success: skill-building. Every year, he commits to sharpening a new skill, often outside of traditional business training. These disciplines, ones that demand focus, patience, and attention to detail, end up strengthening how deals get done, decisions get made, and pressure gets handled.This quick-hitter episode is a flashback with staying power. The lesson is simple: protect your deals with the right clauses, and protect your edge by continuously leveling up. Because in retail real estate, the smallest details often decide the biggest outcomes.What You'll Hear in This ReplayWhy a fully executed lease does not always guarantee possession — and how that gap can derail a dealA real-world breakdown of possession contingencies and when they actually matterThe risk landlords face when existing tenants do not vacate on timeHow one overlooked clause can impact delivery dates, legal exposure, and tenant relationshipsWhy continuously building new skills outside of your core job can make you a better dealmakerChapters00:00 – Flashing Back to December 2023Chris reflects on the timing of the episode and why these lessons still matter today.02:15 – The Habit of Building New SkillsWhy intentional skill development — inside and outside of business — sharpens long-term performance.04:20 – Learning Precision Outside the OfficeHow mastering a detail-oriented hobby improves focus and decision-making in high-pressure work.09:55 – What Is a Possession Contingency?A clear, practical explanation of the clause many deals overlook.12:10 – When a Tenant Does Not LeaveThe real risk of expired leases, holdovers, and delayed possession.14:30 – Protecting Delivery Dates and DealsHow possession contingencies create clarity and protect all parties.15:30 – Final TakeawaysWhy better documents and better operators go hand in hand.

Pastor Ron breaks down each piece of war equipment—the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, killer shoes of peace, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, sword of the Spirit, and the spear of prayer—and shows you how to use them every day, not just during a conference weekend. You'll discover how to fight in union with the Lord instead of striving in your own strength, how to keep your faith "oiled" with the Holy Spirit, and how to release the rhema word of God against every fiery dart of the enemy. This episode will equip you to stop chasing victory and start speaking from the victory Jesus already purchased at the cross. If you're ready to stay free, guard your breakthrough, and walk in true spiritual authority, this armor of God message will ignite you to press, stand, and conquer every battle through Christ. #armorofgod #spiritualwarfare #deliveranceministry #kathydegraw #christianteaching **Connect with Us** - Website: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kathydegraw/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathydegraw/  Podcast - Subscribe to our YouTube channel and listen to Kathy's Podcast called Prophetic Spiritual Warfare, or on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/show/3mYPPkP28xqcTzdeoucJZu or Apple podcasts at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/prophetic-spiritual-warfare/id1474710499  **Recommended Resources:** - - Receive a free prayer pdf on Warfare Prayer Declarations at https://kathydegrawministries.org/declarations-download - Kathy's training, mentoring and e-courses on Spiritual Warfare, Deliverance and the Prophetic: https://training.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Healed At Last ~ Overcome Sickness and Receive your Physical Healing: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/healed-at-last/ - Mind Battles – Root Out Mental Triggers to Release Peace!: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/product/mind-battles-pre-order-available-january-2023/ -Kathy has several books available on Amazon or kathydegrawministries.org  **Support Kathy DeGraw Ministries:** - Give a one-time love offering or consider partnering with us for $15, $35, $75 or any amount!

There are certain occupations where I think you need a particularly strong self image. For example, I would think a dentist needs a strong self image. I mean, he's a professional, he's helping people, but it's just hard to have so many people dreading what you do. Or in the world of sports, like a baseball umpire? Everybody thinks they can see better than the umpire can. You can tell because they keep yelling, "Hey, are you blind?" Because they don't agree with your call. Everybody thinks they have a higher IQ than you do. They keep commenting on the intelligence of an umpire negatively just because they don't agree with him. But you couldn't have baseball without the umpires. I mean, can you imagine the players trying to agree on whether a guy was safe or out at second? That would end the game right there. Or how about letting the fans decide? Man, there would be chaos without the umpire. So, let's say there's a dramatic play at home plate. The winning run is sliding into home plate as the ball is thrown to the catcher, there's a cloud of dust, there are thousands of voices giving their opinion whether the runner was safe or not, but there's only one voice that matters. The umpire settles it. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Your Own Personal Umpire." Our word for today from the Word of God comes from Colossians 3:15 where God says, "Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace." Notice here it says that "the peace of Christ should rule in your hearts." Now, that word in the original language of the New Testament means to be the judge; the one who awards the prize. In essence, "Let the peace of Christ be the umpire in your heart." In other words, the peace of God is your own personal umpire. As you make each day's choices, you need some way to decide what should be safe and what should be out. Well, that's the peace of Christ. You've got a lot of choices. You've got right or wrong choices, and some of them are not covered by a specific rule in the Bible. You've got to decide which way to go in a lot of situations; which option is the one God wants. Well, the Bible says, "Let the peace of Christ decide." Let it be the umpire. Now, this peace comes as you continue to bring a choice to God. You come to Him with a blank piece of paper and you say, "God, you know what I'd like, but I'm not going to give you a contract to sign. This is my blank piece of paper. What do you want?" And as you pray it through, I think you'll find that one way you're supposed to go. One road feels right most of the time when you're praying about it when it's just you and Jesus - as you pray about it over and over again. Now, I'm not talking about rushed prayer here. You've got to have time to let Him put His thoughts into your heart. But as you get off your knees and start to go through your day, the peace of Christ is going to be challenged by a lot of other voices - like the umpire and all those people in the stands. I mean as soon as you get with other people, God's will starts to seem a little less clear than it did when you were just with Him. There are all these other voices, but you've got to focus on the one voice that decides it. How can you tune your peace meter so you can hear and receive the peace of Christ? Well, the next verse says, "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly." So you need to have some increased time in God's Word. You need to memorize some verses. You need to read whenever you can, looking for a personal word from the Lord. The more you get full of God's Word, the more God has to work with in giving you His personal guidance. His peace and His Word always go together. Human umpires? Well, they're right some of the time. God's umpire is right all the time. Why don't you offer your choices to the Lord and ask for His peace as the confirming signal in your heart, that sense that you've had a divine "OK" or a divine "forget it"? God's peace is His wonderful way of calling "Safe!" or "Out!" on the calls you have to make. And you'll always win if you go along with God's personal umpire.

Soly, TC, Randy, DJ and Neil comb through the data of Team NLU's golf in 2025 via the USGA GHIN app to see who made the biggest moves in the last twelve months, how we fared in the “Will They Go Lower in 2025” game from last year's pod and guess if we'll better our low round from this year in 2026.  We also vow to stop (or start) something in 2026, our favorite trends in golf, and our most interesting playing partners of 2025.
