Nick from Aiometrix explains how agentic AI can automate busywork and boost results for Amazon brands. He began in a California garage with retail arbitrage, then expanded into wholesale and manufacturing during the COVID surge. Today, his team builds AI agents that connect to WMS and ad APIs to make real-time decisions on bids, budgets, and inventory so operators can focus on strategy. Scott and Nick cover Amazon's AI roadmap for sellers and shoppers, why large companies move slowly, then fast, and how to use copilots without losing human judgment. The conversation also touches on advances in image generation, including Google's Nano Banana update, and what these developments could mean for PDP creative.   Episode Notes: 00:15 - Nick Bahr Introduction 01:35 - Nick's Personal Background and Journey 03:04 - The Shift During Covid and Evolution in E-Commerce 05:15 - Amazon's Announcements and AI Adoption 07:24 - The Changing Landscape of AI in E-Commerce 09:20 - The Role and Potential of AI Agents 11:30 - Enhancing Workflow and Decision-Making with AI 13:40 - Specific Use Cases and Technology Developments 16:32 - The Complexity and Regionality in AI Applications 17:45 - Aiometrix: A ChatGPT for Amazon Sellers 18:45 - Education and Mastery in AI Interaction 20:10 - AI for Image Generation 22:15 - Aiometrix Special offer: FREEAGENTS30   Related Post: Top 10 Amazon Quotes From the Operators Podcast   How to Reach Nick: LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/nick-bahr-47346b9a/ Website: https://aiometrix.com/   Scott's Links: LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/scott-needham-a8b39813 X: @itsScottNeedham Instagram: @smartestseller YouTube: www.youtube.com/@smartestamazonseller2371 Newsletter: https://www.smartscout.com/newsletter-sign-up Blog: https://www.smartscout.com/blog

In this episode of The Sacred Speaks, John sits down with Adele Getty—spiritual teacher, author, and cultural bridge—to explore the urgent, timeless wisdom of her book A Sense of the Sacred. Though written nearly 30 years ago, Adele's work feels more relevant than ever in a world hungry for meaning, ritual, and reconnection with the more-than-human world. Together, John and Adele reflect on the lost world of animism, the power of symbolic action, and the aching grief of cultural severance from the sacred. Adele shares her path as a modern-day rite-maker, offering personal stories, cross-cultural insights, and poetic invitations to remember what it means to live in a living world. The conversation moves fluidly between anthropology, personal spirituality, indigenous wisdom, and the transformative potential of ceremony—especially in a time of ecological crisis and soul loss. This episode is both an intellectual dialogue and a soul invocation. If you've ever felt the quiet mourning of a life unlived—or sensed the sacred just beneath the surface of ordinary things—this conversation is for you. Key Themes: Animism as a lived cosmology—not a belief system, but a relationship The grief of modernity and the longing for reconnection Ceremony as both personal healing and collective repair The sacred role of women, humor, and voice in ritual How to begin building meaningful ceremonies in contemporary life Why symbolic acts matter in a disenchanted world Reflections on the psychedelic resurgence and ritual ethics Episode Timeline: (00:00) Introduction and Guest Announcement (00:37) Podcast Updates and Announcements (02:25) Introducing Adele Getty (04:02) The Book as a Lament and a Love Song (09:05) Adele's Personal Background and Influences (11:56) Animism and the Cosmology of Connection (16:44) Ceremony as Daily Practice and Communal Healing (24:54) Spirit, Voice, and Song in Ritual Work (35:32) Historical Context and Cultural Amnesia (47:34) The Psychedelic Explosion and Western Disconnection (50:26) Modern Psychedelics, Integration, and Ethical Ceremony (51:24) Nature as Teacher and Ceremony Ground (52:35) Creating Sacred Spaces in Ordinary Life (01:14:21) The Role of Humor, Play, and the Trickster (01:18:51) Symbolic Acts and Soul Reenchantment (01:19:57) Final Reflections on Ceremony and Belonging (01:26:44) Closing Thoughts and Upcoming Offerings Connect with Adele Getty & The Limina Foundation: Website: https://www.liminafoundation.org/ Facebook: @liminafoundation Instagram: @liminafoundation

In this gripping episode of Unleashing Intuition Secrets, Michael Jaco sits down with Dr. Michael Kirk Moore — a courageous 59-year-old physician and former Navy Flight Surgeon from Utah — whose stand for medical ethics shook the nation. Facing up to 35 years in prison for refusing to violate his oath, Dr. Moore administered saline in place of COVID vaccines to patients facing coercive mandates that threatened their jobs, education, military service, and even life-saving transplants. The result? A relentless prosecution, 22 days in jail, and the stripping of his credentials. But just five days into trial, Attorney General Pam Bondi dismissed all charges — a historic win for medical freedom and ethical practice. Dr. Moore opens up about his life, his military service, the courage it took to resist, and the moral convictions that kept him standing tall in the face of government pressure. This conversation goes beyond one man's fight — it's about defending medical autonomy, protecting informed consent, and refusing to bend to unjust authority.

Ash's work serves those actively dying as well as those wishing to feel more connected to their own spirit in everyday life. Ash also supports you in connecting with loved ones with mediumship readings, guiding you in transforming your grief into even deeper wells of meaning and aliveness. This work of walking with grief and death found Ash after being diagnosed and hospitalized with a chronic illness called Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. It was in their most challenging days and scariest moments where death was close---that Ash realized what it was they would offer to this world. "It was when I began to face my own death from my long term chronic illness that I was initiated in the astral plane by my grandmother Ida Canty, who was in spirit. She told me I would be supporting others in the physical world, lessening their fear of death and being a bridge of communication from the spirit realm to this physical realm." Certified as a death care provider through Alua Arthur's Going With Grace program, Ash's hope and prayer is to bring about healing from the other side and a profound peace regarding life after death. https://www.thesovereignspiritmedium.com/

Understanding Spiritual Warfare and Discipleship with Shodankeh Johnson In this insightful talk, Shodankeh Johnson, an experienced church planter and disciple maker from Sierra Leone, shares his journey and challenges in advancing the Kingdom of God. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing spiritual warfare, using the Word of God, prayer, and love to overcome obstacles and make disciples. Shodankeh recounts personal stories of facing threats, persecution, and miraculous transformations, illustrating the reality of spiritual battles and the power of faith. Join us to learn about the critical aspects of spiritual warfare, the nature of the enemy, and how to stand firm as a disciple maker. https://reallifetheologypodcast.supercast.com/  Key Takeaways  00:00 Introduction and Gratitude 01:36 Personal Background and Ministry 03:50 Understanding Spiritual Warfare 06:19 The Reality of Spiritual Warfare 11:22 Stories of Faith and Transformation 15:30 Critical Insights on Spiritual Warfare 24:38 Divine Weapons and Love in Action 32:26 The Armor of God: Spiritual Warfare Essentials 35:22 Faith and Perseverance in Adversity 37:01 Facing Persecution with Courage 42:05 Understanding Satan's Tactics 54:22 Identifying and Overcoming Strongholds 58:32 The Power of the Word and Prayer 01:01:40 Conclusion and Final Thoughts This episode opens with Shodankeh Johnson thanking the audience and leading a prayer, inviting God's presence and wisdom. He briefly introduces himself, sharing his background in disciple-making and church planting across the globe—especially in Sierra Leone, where he's seen God move in powerful ways, even in dangerous situations. Coming from a Creole father and a Muslim Shabro mother, Shodanke brings a deeply personal and cross-cultural perspective to his mission. The heart of the conversation centers on spiritual warfare. Shodanke stresses that spiritual warfare is real and unavoidable—like gravity, it's in effect whether we acknowledge it or not. He's witnessed the influence of darkness across cultures and emphasizes the need to preach the Word boldly and make disciples who are grounded in truth and equipped for battle. He invites the audience to share what comes to mind when they think of spiritual warfare—responses include prayer, fasting, and confronting evil. From there, he unpacks the spiritual conflict believers face: an invisible but fierce battle between the Kingdom of God and the forces of darkness, aimed at disrupting our relationship with Christ and stopping the spread of the Gospel. Quoting Ephesians 6:12, Shodankeh shares stories of personal threats, persecution, and near-death experiences—yet also moments of miraculous transformation, where former enemies of the faith became devoted followers of Jesus. These testimonies highlight God's power and the impact of responding with love and prayer. He outlines four truths every disciple-maker must grasp about spiritual warfare: You are in a war. The fight is spiritual, not physical. God provides powerful, non-carnal weapons. You must put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:13–18). Shodankeh also breaks down Satan's tactics—affliction, accusation, and destruction—designed to weaken believers and distract them from their mission (John 10:10, Revelation 12:10). He describes three types of spiritual strongholds: He concludes by encouraging listeners to tear down these strongholds through Scripture, the Holy Spirit, and disciplined prayer and fasting (2 Corinthians 10:5). The battle may be spiritual, but God's power is real and available to all who seek Him.

He emphasizes the importance of education in ACL rehabilitation. The type of graft used in ACL surgery significantly affects recovery. Early intervention in rehabilitation can lead to better outcomes. Managing swelling is crucial for effective recovery post-surgery. Different graft types have unique healing timelines and considerations. Patient education is key to understanding the rehabilitation process. The strength of the graft can vary significantly based on the type used. Rehabilitation strategies should be tailored to the individual athlete. Understanding the risks and timelines of recovery can help prevent re-injury. The quality of physical therapy coaching is crucial for recovery. Limb symmetry index should be at least 90% for strength. Plyometrics should be introduced gradually in rehabilitation. Deceleration training is essential for athletes returning to sport. Many physical therapists lack knowledge in plyometric training. Re-injury rates for ACL injuries are alarmingly high. Education on plyometrics is lacking in physical therapy schools. Collaboration between therapists and strength coaches is vital. Athletes often shy away from loading their knees post-injury. Understanding knee and hip strategies can improve rehabilitation outcomes.

Beginning with a prayer, he outlines his family's history in church planting, the growth of The Crossings Church since 2004, and their unique approach to making disciples. Discussing the importance of repentance, baptism, and the relational component in discipling, he emphasizes the need for leaders to model these practices. The video includes insights into their structured Bible study process, small group dynamics, and intentional church practices. Practical advice is given for churches seeking to emulate this model and address doctrinal adherence and growth challenges. https://reallifetheologypodcast.supercast.com/  Key Takeaways  00:00 Opening Prayer and Introduction 00:49 Personal Background and Church Planting Journey 01:55 Growth and Challenges at The Crossings Church 04:03 Cultural Shifts in the Restoration Movement 10:31 The Importance of Relational Discipleship 18:07 Teaching Repentance and Baptism 19:26 Bible Study Practices at The Crossings 30:01 Training New Disciples 31:57 The Importance of Repentance 33:43 Understanding Baptism 34:34 Challenges in Discipleship 38:07 Addressing Doctrinal Differences 45:09 Small Group Dynamics 47:54 Maintaining Church Culture 58:17 Concluding Thoughts "Farming vs. Factory Work in Ministry" In this episode, Kerry Cox shares lessons from his ministry journey, focusing on church planting, discipleship, and creating a culture of genuine spiritual growth. He opens with a prayer, setting the tone for a conversation centered on God's guidance and the power of community. Kerry reflects on his early exposure to church life, shaped by his parents starting a home church when they grew disillusioned with traditional ones. From a young age, he witnessed how the unchurched came to faith and became disciple-makers themselves—a foundation that shaped his approach to ministry. In 2004, Kerry and about 30 others moved west of St. Louis to plant Crossings Church. Over the next 20 years, it grew to around 650 members, especially connecting with youth and people new to church. Crossings stood out from typical Churches of Christ by building a culture that prioritized relationships, authenticity, and active discipleship. A key theme Kerry emphasizes is the need to move beyond a baptism-centered model to one that fully integrates faith, repentance, and ongoing discipleship. He challenges the tendency in some Restoration Movement churches to treat baptism as the end goal, arguing instead for a holistic, relational approach to spiritual growth. Throughout the episode, Kerry shares stories that bring this vision to life—like the high schooler who brought his troubled brother, TC, to church. Though TC's commitment was doubted at first, he went on to help lead their first church plant. Stories like this underscore the power of relational ministry and long-term investment in people. Kerry also breaks down how Crossings Church puts these values into practice. Every member joins a small group and engages in a foundational Bible study process that covers topics from seeking God to discipleship and baptism. Leaders are trained to model this lifestyle, creating a culture where disciple-making starts at the top and flows through the entire church. He answers audience questions on how to integrate new believers, tailor small groups, and avoid turning church into a checklist of activities. His central point: everything the church does should point back to its mission—making real, multiplying disciples. Kerry wraps up by urging churches to shift their culture—away from routine, and toward deep, intentional, Spirit-led relationships. His insights, drawn from years of hands-on ministry, offer a practical and inspiring roadmap for building vibrant, disciple-making communities.

My guest this week is Glen Martin, Co-Founder & CEO of Extraterrestrial Mining Company (XMC), discusses his company's bold mission to mine Helium-3 on the Moon and its potential to revolutionize energy and tech on Earth.  

Watch this episode on YouTube.Ross Geiger is Co-Founder & President at Ciro, a YC-backed tech startup. His LinkedIn says he is “On a journey to understand & elevate the craft of Sales.” And he participated in the 2024 Soulful Impact Vision Quest.If that combination makes you raise an eyebrow, you're not alone. Ross is a unique and deeply multifaceted individual. Which is part of why I was so excited to invite him onto the show.Through guiding Ross on his quest, I got to witness his incredible depth. I had the opportunity to walk beside him as he did a very scary and courageous thing. He stepped away from a very full life to spend several days alone in the wilderness with no food. He ceremonially released the control of his ego so that he could dive deeper within himself than ever before and connect with the truth at the center of his calling.The result was profound. I'm incredibly grateful to Ross for his willingness to share some of that experience with you directly through this episode.A core theme we explore in this conversation is how the setting and structure of the quest supported Ross in putting his ego aside, how this enabled a realization of his innate worthiness, and how that spark opened the door for his soul to speak.We also explore what integration has been like for him so far, what's alive for him now in this next layer of his journey, and how he's finding deep soulful alignment without needing to make major shake-ups to the external realities of his life (which is something people often expect to happen after a vision quest).In this way, Ross' story is a powerful example of how it's really the internal shift that counts. When we consciously live and act from a place of soul, we are guided to make soulful impact in beautiful and unexpected ways.Enjoy!Links & Resources* Connect with Brooks on Instagram or LinkedIn* Soulful Impact: soulfulimpact.co* Connect with Ross on LinkedIn* Check out Ross' company, CiroChapters00:03:28 Introduction and Journey Overview00:06:24 Personal Background and Call to the Quest00:09:30 Preparation for the Vision Quest00:12:31 Experiencing the Quest: Inner Work and Transformation00:15:22 The Role of Nature and Wilderness in Healing00:18:40 Insights Gained from the Quest00:21:28 The Importance of Authenticity and Self-Expression00:24:15 Messages from the Soul and Personal Craft00:27:21 Reflections on the Quest Experience00:30:32 Future Directions00:44:01 Believing You're Enough00:46:06 The Journey of Self-Discovery00:51:50 Nature as a Teacher00:53:43 Understanding Our Place in Nature00:59:51 The Power of Asking for Support01:04:51 Embodying Soul in Leadership01:10:36 The Importance of Personal Transformation01:14:40 Integration After the Quest01:20:33 Advice for Future Questers—Get newsletter updates & future episodes delivered to your inbox: Subscribe to Soulful Impact on Substack Get full access to Soulful Impact at www.soulfulimpact.blog/subscribe
