William Hockey is the co-founder of Plaid and the founder and CEO of Column, a software company that owns a bank and powers Ramp, Wise, Bilt, Mercury, and others. He funded Column by borrowing against his Plaid shares and has never raised outside capital.  William talks about what owning 100% of his company allows him to do that other venture-backed founder cannot and the personal risk he took to do so. He shares how Silicon Valley's consensus culture produces consensus founders, and why becoming a founder has become too safe. He believes the best builders are specialists and explains with unusual clarity what it takes to become the best in the world at one specific thing. William also spends a lot of time in emerging markets which has given him a unique perspective of the power of the US dollar.

Jamie Cashen recounts how, at 15, he became a volunteer firefighter in Joshua, Texas and on Feb. 24, 1984 was trapped in a 2,500-acre grass fire with 18-foot flames and 42-mph winds, burning for 38 seconds after trying to help rescue a stalled water-truck driver; he describes crying out to God, being guided to the last firefighter on scene, and being airlifted to Parkland with 36% third-degree burns. Doctors discussed amputating his fingers, but his paraplegic mother prayed and insisted otherwise. He was transferred to the Shriners Burn Institute, avoided amputation, endured brutal treatment, and later faced social stigma from masks and splints. Cashen became a deputy fire marshal and a lifelong martial artist approaching a 10th-degree black belt. He uses his scars and platform to teach, witness, and encourage burn victims and children worldwide, emphasizing hope, prayer, and God's timing. He closes with a prayer and shares jamiecashion.com and jamie.cashion@yahoo. 00:00 Engulfed By Flames 00:36 Meet Jamie Cashen 01:47 Childhood Faith Tested 04:00 Joining The Firehouse 06:06 The Big Brush Fire 09:16 Rescue Run Gone Wrong 11:47 Lifted Out Alive 16:17 Burn Unit Ordeal 18:58 Shriners Brutal Rehab 21:20 Mask Trauma And School 23:46 A Mother's Tough Love 26:07 Fighting For His Hands 26:37 Defying Limitations 27:14 Black Belt Influence 28:23 Fire Safety Testimony 29:37 Burn Unit Ministry 31:15 Olney Calls Return 34:01 Kerman and Perspective 36:54 Ray and Heartbreak 39:03 Gods Timing Lesson 41:15 Martial Arts Encouragement 44:38 Hope for the Hopeless 47:37 Contact and Closing Prayer Jamie's website: https://www.jamiecashion.com/ To reach Jamie: jamie.cashion@yahoo.com

As attacks in the Strait of Hormuz put investors on edge, we start this week's episode with a conversation that takes a step back from the headlines to focus on what actually matters for client holdings. We'll compare the current moment to 2008, examine how increased U.S. oil production has changed the picture, and offer some reassurance in a market still grappling with uncertainty.With all the uncertainty, the S&P 500 keeps dipping, the headlines are getting louder, and investors are starting to feel uneasy—but the market is still only about 2% to 3% off record highs. We'll put today's volatility in context, revisit the “Ten-Year Rule,” and explain why moments like this are often when long-term discipline matters most.After the break we look at Vanguard's “How America Saves” report, which shows hardship withdrawals from 401(k) plans have been inching higher; however, participation in workplace retirement plans has also never been stronger. We'll explore why that combination may actually signal progress, as more workers build retirement savings that can also serve as a financial backstop when life throws a curveball.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C. Smith, CFP®, CEPA, and D.J. Barker, CWS®, and Kelly-Lynne Scalice, a seasoned communicator and host, on Henssler Money Talks as they explore key financial strategies to help investors navigate market uncertainty. Henssler Money Talks — March 14, 2026  |  Season 40, Episode 11Timestamps and Chapters7:12: Perspective in a Time of Uncertainty20:05: But is the Sky Really Falling?45:31: The 401(k) Safety NetFollow Henssler:  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HensslerFinancial/ YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/HensslerFinancial LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/henssler-financial/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hensslerfinancial/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hensslerfinancial?lang=en X: https://www.x.com/hensslergroup “Henssler Money Talks” is brought to you by Henssler Financial.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!This week on Paige's Perspective, we're digging into DARVO—the manipulative pattern people use to avoid accountability by flipping the script and making you question your reality. You'll learn what DARVO looks like, why it happens, and how to spot it in both loud and subtle forms (even the sweet, guilt-soaked kind that sounds like love but isn't). I'll also share what healthy accountability sounds like and give you practical tools to protect your peace, stop overexplaining, and see DARVO for what it is—a mindf*ck, not a communication issue.

This week on Swimming with Allocators, Marcia Mitchell joins Earnest and Alexa to trace her path from FF Venture Capital to New York Ventures and now Mesa Lane Capital, a GP-seeding fund focused on emerging managers. She shares how her time in government shaped a broader, more responsible view of innovation and capital allocation, and discusses the increasingly crowded emerging manager landscape and where capital is still being overlooked. Marcia also breaks Mesa Lane's differentiated model of large anchor checks, follow-on commitments, co-invest pools, no carry at the FoF level, and hands-on support, positioning the firm as a true co-builder. The conversation closes with how parenthood reshaped her approach to focus, boundaries, and investing in people who energize her.

My guest today is Shyam Sankar, the CTO of Palantir Technologies. In this conversation, we explore the ideas that shape how Shyam thinks about technology, talent, and national power. We discuss the origins of Palantir's forward-deployed engineering model and the lessons he learned from Alex Karp about identifying people's "superpowers". We also talk about Shyam's fascination with the "heretics" of American history, the unconventional builders who challenged bureaucracy and created many of the systems that powered America's military and industrial success. Shyam argues that the United States must reindustrialize after decades of moving production overseas, and explains what we can learn from America's industrial past. In a new Colossus profile, our Editor in Chief Jeremy Stern tells the story of how Shyam became one of the most important but largely unseen figures behind Palantir, tracing his journey from immigrant roots to employee #13 and the architect of the company's success and distinctive culture.

"The more success you create in the world, the more shadows you must be willing to face within yourself." What if the real mastery in life isn't about controlling the world… but learning to master yourself? In this powerful episode of SoulTalk, Kute Blackson sits down with Shaolin Master Shi Heng Yi, founder of Shaolin Temple Europe and author of Shaolin Spirit: The Way of Self-Mastery, for a profound conversation about the mind, fear, identity, and the deeper purpose of life. Drawing from ancient Shaolin wisdom, Master Shi Heng Yi reveals why many of our fears are simply projections of the mind and how true freedom begins when we stop grasping onto our thoughts. He also speaks with rare honesty about the hidden price of success, the role of discipline in personal transformation, and why inner peace and love for life matter more than anything we achieve in the external world. This episode is a powerful invitation to step back, question the roles you play, and rediscover the deeper truth of who you really are.   TIMESTAMPS (00:03:00) The Unexpected Path: How a Childhood Decision Led to the Shaolin Way (00:08:30) The Question That Changes Everything: Who Are You Beyond Your Roles?

Episode Summary In this episode of the Prosperity Podcast, Spencer Shaw and Kim Butler explore the growing disconnect between generations around money—and how multi-generational family councils can close that gap. As younger generations feel priced out of traditional milestones and turn toward speculative "investments," Kim explains how wisdom, structure, and conversation can replace gambling with perspective. Through stories, practical examples, and simple exercises, this episode shows how intentional dialogue—across all ages—creates financial clarity, resilience, and shared progress over time.

Shepherding was hard and generally thankless work. And that is exactly the image the Bible uses for spiritual leadership. Consequently, shepherds can be prone to shepherd selfishly rather than sacrificially. How do we overcome this? Sermon Outline:I. The Shepherd's Perspective.II. The Shepherd's Calling.III. The Shepherd's Reward.Sermon Discussion Questions:1. Think of a leader in your life who modeled sacrificial shepherding. What did that look like practically, and how did it affect you?2. How does remembering that the people we lead ultimately belong to God change the way we treat them in the church, in our families, or in places where we have influence?3. Peter addresses three vices shepherds face: sloth, desire for gain, lust for power. Which of these do you think is most common today, and why? Where might you personally feel the pull of one of these?4. In what ways do you find your service drifting from love for Christ toward mere habit or obligation? What practices help you return to that first love?5. How does keeping eternity in view practically change the way you approach discouraging or thankless seasons of serving others?

If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stretched thin, you're not alone. We all have breaking points. The question isn't if we'll reach them, but what happens next. Let's journey beyond quick fixes and clichés to discover practical truth that helps us regain our footing and move forward with strength.DISCUSSION QUESTIONS: CLICK HEREABOUT FEARLESS CHURCHFearless Church is here to help you live boldly for Jesus.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!In this episode of Paige's Perspective, Paige speaks directly to those who feel like they are just surviving each day.If you feel mentally, emotionally, and physically exhausted… if simple decisions feel overwhelming… if you wake up feeling dread or wonder if you will ever feel stable or joyful again… you may be living in survival mode.Survival mode happens when your nervous system has been under stress for too long. Your brain starts scanning everything as a threat, your body stays in fight-or-flight, and even the smallest tasks can feel like too much. It can leave you feeling broken, unmotivated, or like you are failing at life.But there is nothing wrong with you.Your body is responding to chronic stress the way it was designed to. The challenge is that survival mode is not a place we are meant to live long term. Left unaddressed, it can take a serious toll on our mental, emotional, and physical health.In this episode, Paige explains what survival mode really is, how it shows up in everyday life, and why so many spouses and partners of those struggling with addiction find themselves stuck in this state. She also shares practical ways to begin stabilizing your nervous system and taking the first steps toward feeling safe, regulated, and capable again.If you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or like you are barely holding things together, this episode is for you.Thriving may feel impossible right now, but it is still available to you.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!

Brandon Bennett currently serves as a Professor of Religious Education at Brigham Young University–Idaho. He previously worked for more than a decade in Seminaries and Institutes of Religion in Utah and Texas, where he was blessed to teach the restored gospel to many remarkable youth and young adults. Throughout much of his adult life, he has held callings working with the rising generation, focusing on strengthening their faith in Jesus Christ and helping them build a firm spiritual foundation. His experiences as a religious educator and youth leader have reinforced the importance of teaching truth “in plainness” (2 Nephi 31:3). Teaching doctrine with clarity and simplicity has, therefore, become one of his great priorities and convictions. He believes that as we seek to clearly understand and faithfully apply the principles taught in the scriptures and the words of the prophets—free from false assumptions—we place ourselves in a position to more fully receive the Savior's power, peace, and direction in our lives. Brandon shares faith-filled thoughts on finding purpose in pain through Jesus Christ. This livestream explores why trials come—from our own choices, mortality, others' actions, or divine tutoring—and how the Savior's touch can give any experience meaning. Rather than saying “everything happens for a reason,” Brandon reframes the idea: through Jesus Christ, everything can have a reason and purpose. Drawing on scripture, doctrine, and the story of the man born blind, this discussion offers hope, perspective, and practical faith for anyone navigating hardship—and for leaders counseling others through it.

Most people spend their entire lives marching toward someone else's definition of success, then wonder why they feel empty when they finally arrive. Sahil Bloom calls this the “arrival fallacy,” the lie that happiness lives on the other side of the next achievement, promotion, or milestone. In this powerful conversation, Sahil shares the exact moment he realized his definition of wealth was incomplete, the framework for identifying your meaningful struggles, and practical rituals for creating space in a world designed to keep you overstimulated and reactive. Your life changes when you close the gap between what you say matters and what your actions prove matters.
