Are you preparing for birth… or just planning a wedding-level event? In this powerful and eye-opening conversation, Debra Pascali-Bonaro is joined by Nina Spears, founder of Baby Chick, to explore why so many families spend hundreds of hours planning weddings—but only a fraction of that preparing for birth and postpartum. Together, they dive into what actually creates a positive, empowered, and even pleasurable birth experience—and why preparation, support, and informed choices are everything. Nina shares insights from supporting over 800 families and attending 350+ births, along with her own deeply personal birth experiences, including how knowledge shaped her decisions and outcomes. This episode is a call to rethink how we prepare for one of life's most transformative experiences. In this episode, you'll hear: Why pregnancy is the true preparation for motherhood—not just baby How safety in the body influences oxytocin, endorphins, and birth outcomes The critical role of partners as advocates and support systems How to choose the right care team for you Why birth plans should be created together—not alone The importance of preparing for postpartum (not just birth) What it really means to have an "orgasmic birth" experience Key takeaway: When a woman feels safe, supported, respected, and prepared—her body can open. And that's where powerful, transformative birth experiences begin.

Should a Defendant Take the Stand?Does a defendant have to testify to win at trial?While most know there's no legal requirement, the real issue is much more nuanced and depends on the facts of each case. I talk about not only the risks and strategies involved, but also recent Supreme Court precedent.Key takeaways:There's No One-Size-Fits-All Answer: Whether a defendant should testify depends on factors like prior convictions (which may become evidence if they testify), case circumstances, and the centrality of the defendant's perspective—e.g., in self-defense cases, only the defendant can explain their own mindset 01:54.Testifying Is About Credibility, Not Advocacy: A key theme that emerged was the importance of acting as a truthful witness, not an advocate. Over-advocacy can make a defendant appear defensive and less believable to a jury 06:18.Preparation and Recent Legal Developments Matter: Several points were raised, including the implications of the Supreme Court's decision in Villarreal v. Texas. Defendants may be barred from consulting with their lawyer about testimony during a trial break, making pre-testimony preparation with counsel more critical than ever 15:19.The nuances of testifying—or choosing not to—require careful consideration, preparation, and a strong lawyer-client relationship.FAQ'sDo defendants have to testify to win their criminal case?No, defendants do not have to testify to win their case; it depends on various facts and circumstances. The conversation focused on how each situation is unique, and sometimes defendants are better off not taking the stand, while in other cases, their testimony may help clarify important issues like self-defense.How do lawyers prepare defendants who need to testify in court?Lawyers use various techniques, including dialogue practice and even hiring professionals, to help clients feel more comfortable testifying. The discussion explored strategies like building trust, focusing on clear factual storytelling rather than advocacy, and preparing clients to answer questions directly without slipping into self-defense or argument.Why is it risky for a defendant to advocate for themselves while testifying?A key theme that emerged was that when defendants advocate for themselves, it can make them seem less believable and overly defensive. Several points were raised, including how jurors may interpret this defensiveness as a sign of untrustworthiness and how it can undermine trust in the lawyer's advocacy.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

Send us Fan MailIf you've ever felt that quiet inner nudge that something is off, you're not alone and you're not crazy. We take that instinct seriously and put it through a biblical lens, because preparedness is not about panic. It's about wisdom, stewardship, and protecting the people God has put in our care.I pick up with principle six, “prepare for opposition,” through Nehemiah's rebuilding of Jerusalem's wall while enemies threatened the work. From there, we translate ancient strategy into modern emergency preparedness: a 30-day supply of essential medications, keeping small bills on hand, thinking through barter realities when the grid is down, and building a go bag. We also talk plainly about home security, self-defense basics, legal rights in your state, and why you should not broadcast your preparations to everyone.Next, we move into warnings and spiritual resilience. Noah acted on what others couldn't see, and some Egyptians survived the plagues because they heeded the warning and prepared. Then we look at David on the run, showing why spiritual preparation sustains you when supplies can't. Fear, anxiety, despair, and hopelessness can break a person faster than any outage, and that's why prayer, Scripture, memorisation, and community matter. We close with practical, low-cost prepping steps for tight budgets: water storage, simple food rotation, light, charging habits, and essential household know-how.Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs calm clarity, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway.

fWotD Episode 3326: William IV's British coinage Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 13 June 2026, is William IV's British coinage.The British coinage struck under William IV (r. 1830–1837) ranged in denomination from the double sovereign (£2) to the third farthing (1⁄12 of a penny, 1⁄2880 of a pound) though the former was not minted for circulation and the latter struck only for colonial use. The coins have an obverse by William Wyon based on a sketch by Francis Chantrey, and reverses by Wyon and Jean Baptiste Merlen, both of the Royal Mint.Preparation for William's coinage began even before he became king in June 1830, probably because Wyon was anxious to head off a potential challenge from his rival, Benedetto Pistrucci. Wyon's work was viewed by William, who liked it and ordered it to be used exclusively for coins during his reign; it was also used on his coronation medal. The designs were formally approved in early 1831, and coining began later that year.In addition to the issues for use in Britain, several small denominations of sterling were struck during William's reign for colonial use. Two of these, the half farthing and silver threepence, were later issued for use in Britain. William's reign saw no great innovations in coinage, but marked the start of reform at the Royal Mint.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:10 UTC on Saturday, 13 June 2026.For the full current version of the article, see William IV's British coinage on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Salli.

New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Mujahid Muhammad. Interview Summary Interview with Rushion McDonald – Money Making Conversations Masterclass Interview Purpose The purpose of this interview is to demystify personal finance, redefine wealth‑building, and emphasize the importance of preparation, capitalization, and disciplined planning. Mujahid Muhammad, a personal financial coach and founder of Wealth Coaching Stratosphere, shares a deeply personal journey marked by financial success, failure, rebuilding, and hard‑earned wisdom. Through candid storytelling, the interview reframes wealth not as risky speculation or quick wins, but as a long‑term process grounded in personal financial stability, liquidity, and informed decision‑making. The conversation is designed to help everyday people avoid common financial traps and approach real estate and investing from a position of strength rather than desperation. Major Themes & Key Takeaways 1. Experience Is the Best Teacher Mujahid’s financial philosophy is rooted in lived experience. After building a seven‑figure real estate portfolio early in life, he suffered devastating losses due to Hurricane Katrina and the 2008 housing collapse. These setbacks reshaped his understanding of leverage, risk, and preparation. Key takeaway: Financial success without safeguards can collapse quickly. 2. Leverage Without Liquidity Is Dangerous One of the most powerful lessons Mujahid shares is that being “asset‑rich but cash‑poor” is a vulnerable position. His earlier strategy relied heavily on leverage without sufficient reserves, leaving him exposed when disaster struck. Key takeaway: Liquidity is protection; leverage alone is not wealth. 3. Fix Personal Finance Before Building Businesses Mujahid stresses that many people pursue entrepreneurship or real estate in hopes of fixing personal financial struggles—often with disastrous results. Instead, personal financial stability must come first. Key takeaway: Solve your personal finances before using business to create wealth. 4. Wealth Is a Process, Not a Product The interview reinforces that financial improvement isn’t something you buy—it’s something you build over time. Mujahid emphasizes facing financial reality honestly instead of avoiding uncomfortable truths. Key takeaway: Progress starts by looking at the numbers, not ignoring them. 5. The Five Financial Stratospheres Mujahid introduces his Wealth Coaching Stratosphere model, outlining five levels of financial development: Financial Failure Financial Health Financial Fluency Financial Wealth Financial Independence Each stage represents a mindset and requires different behaviors and priorities. Key takeaway: Knowing your financial “stratosphere” determines your next move. 6. Capitalization Comes Before Real Estate Mujahid advises against entering real estate before reaching financial fluency. While creative financing exists, retaining real estate requires cash flow, reserves, and patience. Key takeaway: You can buy property with little money—but you cannot keep it that way. 7. The Importance of Capital and Opportunity Funds He emphasizes saving, emergency funds, and opportunity funds as prerequisites to investing. Capital allows individuals to recognize and act on opportunities without panic. Key takeaway: Capital creates clarity—and choices. 8. Infinite Banking and Financial Autonomy Mujahid explains the Infinite Banking Concept, which focuses on reclaiming control over the banking function through properly structured life insurance, allowing individuals to access capital without relying on traditional lenders. Key takeaway: Financial independence includes controlling how you access capital. 9. Debt Freedom Is Hard—but Worth It Through personal stories of tackling significant student loan and consumer debt, Mujahid emphasizes that debt freedom requires sacrifice, time, and unity—especially within marriage. Key takeaway: Debt freedom is attainable, but only through commitment and discipline. 10. Coaching Provides Accountability and Perspective Mujahid describes financial coaching as objective guidance from someone who has navigated the journey before. Coaching is positioned as a serious commitment, not casual advice. Key takeaway: Accountability accelerates growth. Notable Quotes “Leverage without liquidity is stupidity.” “We try to use business to solve personal finance problems—and that’s backwards.” “Wealth is a process, not a product.” “You can acquire real estate with no money—but you can’t keep it that way.” “Capitalization changes how you see opportunity.” “If you have a six‑figure income, your problem is usually you.” “Debt freedom is hard—but it’s worth it.” “Preparation puts you in a position of strength.” Overall Message Mujahid Muhammad’s interview is a ground‑truth masterclass in financial realism and discipline. His story strips away hype and reframes wealth creation as a methodical, values‑driven process that begins with personal accountability and preparation. Ultimately, the conversation challenges listeners to shift from chasing opportunity to becoming prepared for opportunity, reinforcing that sustainable wealth is built through patience, liquidity, education, and intentional planning. #SHMS #STRAW #BEST #AMISee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's Bible Verse: "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." — John 16:33 John 16:33 offers both honesty and hope. Jesus does not promise His followers a life free from hardship, disappointment, or struggle. Instead, He acknowledges a reality we all experience: in this world, trouble is inevitable. Yet He immediately follows that truth with a powerful assurance—He has overcome the world.

Are you ready for the next grizzly bear?—not the animal, but a major market downturn. He discusses the history of market corrections, bear markets, and the rare but devastating grizzly bear markets, illustrating why it's crucial to evaluate your portfolio's risk level during strong market conditions—not during times of crisis. Whether you're approaching retirement or still in your wealth-building years, this episode will prompt you to reconsider your risk tolerance, portfolio diversification, and readiness for inevitable market storms.Outline of This Episode[03:34] Importance of communicating about conflict before it arises [06:27] Discussing market downturns and returns[10:16] Understanding Market Corrections[11:31] S&P 500 correction frequency[16:51] Assessing portfolio risk levels[18:01] Understanding risk and portfolio deviations[24:03] Preparing for market downturns[25:11] Preparing for market downturnsThe Importance of Talking About Risk—Before the DownturnMuch like in relationships, it's best to address potential conflicts before they arise; investors address risk before markets turn volatile. Re-evaluating your comfort with risk and your portfolio's construction when things are calm puts you in the driver's seat. Waiting until a downturn hits can leave you reactionary and vulnerable to poor decisions—like panic selling when it hurts the most.Understanding Corrections, Bear Markets, and Grizzly Bear MarketsI break market volatility into three categories:1. Corrections – The Baby BearA correction is a market drop of at least 10% from its recent high. While the news can make a big fuss about corrections, they are common and, historically, have historically recovered relatively quickly. The S&P 500 has seen 28 corrections since 1969—that's about one every two years. The best move during a correction is strategic rebalancing, not panic.2. Bear Markets – The BearBear markets are drops of 20% or more. Since 1969, they've happened eight times—about once every seven years. Bear markets are more serious than corrections and can be emotionally challenging, but they're still a normal part of the investing cycle. If you're lying awake at night during a bear market, it probably means your portfolio risk wasn't suited to your comfort level before the downturn.3. Grizzly Bear Markets – The Real ThreatA grizzly bear market is a severe drop of 30% or more, and these are rare but devastating. Since 1969, only three have occurred: during the oil and stagflation crisis of the ‘70s, the dot-com bubble in the early 2000s, and the 2008 financial crisis. These markets can take years to recover—some up to 91 months for a portfolio invested solely in the S&P 500.Diversification and RebalancingWhat separates those who weather grizzly bear markets from those who don't? Preparation and portfolio construction. A diversified 60% stocks/40% bonds portfolio has historically fared much better during grizzly bear markets—experiencing smaller drawdowns and much faster recovery times than a pure stock portfolio. By owning more than one asset class and maintaining an “airbag” of bonds and cash, retirees can draw on their safer reserves during downturns, giving stocks time to recover.The Questions Every Investor Should Be AskingIf you're living off your investments, in or near retirement, now is the time to ask:Is my plan set up for the next grizzly bear?Can I withstand a major downturn?Do I have the right mix of stocks, bonds, and cash?Has my advisor “back-tested” my plan against worst-case scenarios?Grizzly bear markets, though rare, are inevitable over a long investing life. The pain is real—but so are the solutions. Assess your risk now, diversify, prepare your cash and bond airbags, and ensure your plan has been rigorously tested for rough times. Addressing risk in your portfolio now leaves you sleeping soundly—no matter what the market throws your way.Connect With Scott WellensSchedule a discovery call with ScottSend a message to ScottVisit Fortress Planning GroupConnect with Scott on LinkedInFollow Scott on TwitterFortress Planning Group on FacebookSubscribe to Best In WealthAudio Production and Show Notes byPODCAST FAST TRACKhttps://www.podcastfasttrack.comPodcast Disclaimer:The Best In Wealth Podcast is hosted by Scott Wellens.

Pastor Paul Schultz sits down with Pastor Zelwyn Heide of the North Dakota District to talk about one of the most neglected aspects of pastoral formation — the craft of preaching. The conversation moves from the theoretical to the practical: why content alone isn't enough, how persuasion is inseparable from faithful proclamation, an where to find the best resources outside LCMS circles for sharpening that craft. Heide walks through several key works, including John Broadus's classic Treatise on the Preparation and Delivery of Sermons, Hugh Oliphant Old's seven-volume history of preaching, and examples drawn from Chrysostom, the English Puritans, and others — all in service of helping Lutheran pastors preach with greater clarity, depth, and effect. The goal isn't imitation but formation: learning from the best so you can preach with your own voice, to your own people, in your own context.   ----more---- Host: Fr. Paul Schulz Guest: Fr.

Today is day 161 and we are on the section on the Lord's Prayer. 161. Why should you learn the Lord's Prayer? I should learn the Lord's Prayer because Jesus taught it to his disciples as both a practice and a pattern for prayer to God the Father. (Matthew 6:5–8; Luke 11:1, 5–13) We will conclude today with Prayer 97. Preparation for Personal Prayer on page 675 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Orlando emphasizes that they are not patriarchal warnings, admonitions, or “chewing outs,” but rather tools to help individuals understand their divine worth. Preparation as a Patriarch: The process involves intense, ongoing spiritual preparation. Orlando explains that he often feels like a “faucet that cannot be turned off” in the days leading up to a blessing, as he studies scriptures and topics prompted by the Holy Ghost to prepare his mind to receive impressions. Mortal Delivery of Revelation: Patriarchs receive inspiration, but they must articulate it using their own mortal capacity, vocabulary, and understanding. Consequently, a patriarchal blessing is a collaboration between the Spirit and the patriarch’s mortal expression. The Fallacy of the “Checklist”: Recipients should avoid viewing their blessings as a list of required events (e.g., marriage, missions, children) to be checked off. Instead, they should see the blessing as a resource to be applied to all of life’s decisions, challenges, and experiences. Understanding Lineage: The declaration of lineage is not a DNA test but an invitation to participate in the Abrahamic covenant and the gathering of Israel. Each tribe's unique description provides a different “skill set” for how an individual can contribute to the Lord’s work. Leadership Applications Alleviate Anxiety: Leaders can help reduce the nervousness people feel about visiting a patriarch by fostering opportunities for the patriarch to interact with ward members (e.g., firesides, sacrament meetings, or activities) beforehand, making him a familiar figure rather than a stranger. Foster a Broad Interpretation: Bishops and leaders should encourage members to interpret their patriarchal blessings with flexibility. When members feel confused by their blessing, leaders can help them understand that the meanings may evolve and deepen as they face different stages and challenges in life.

Biblical Preparation for Troubled Times: How the Remnant Must Prepare for the Days Ahead | KIB 534 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description The world is becoming increasingly unstable. Economic uncertainty, spiritual deception, cultural collapse, technological control systems, and growing hostility toward biblical truth are creating unprecedented challenges for believers. In this powerful episode of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake explore what Scripture teaches about preparing for troubled times. Rather than promoting fear, they reveal the biblical pattern found throughout God's Word: God warns, God prepares, and God preserves a faithful remnant. Drawing from the lives of Noah, Joseph, Elijah, and the early Church, Dr. Lake examines how believers must prepare spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and practically for the days ahead. This episode also addresses discernment, covenant faithfulness, hearing the voice of God, strengthening the inner man, resisting deception, and learning how to walk in kingdom authority during turbulent times. The question is not whether difficult times will come. The question is whether God's people will be prepared when they arrive. If you desire to become part of the remnant that remains faithful, fruitful, and victorious in the last days, this teaching is for you. Topics Covered in This Episode Why God always warns before judgment The biblical pattern of remnant preservation Lessons from Noah's preparation before the Flood Joseph's strategy during years of abundance and famine Why spiritual preparation must come before crisis Hearing the voice of God in an age of deception Building discernment through Scripture and prayer The dangers of modern spiritual confusion Covenant fidelity and kingdom authority The importance of the fear of the Lord Strengthening the inner man for difficult times Biblical principles of practical preparation Why Christian community matters in times of crisis Developing endurance and perseverance Learning contentment outside of Babylon's system Preparing spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically for the future Timeline 00:00 Introduction and opening remarks 03:20 Proverbs 22:3 – The prudent see danger and prepare 07:15 God always warns before judgment 11:08 Noah's preparation and the principle of faithful obedience 19:45 Learning to hear the voice of God 27:20 The dangers of spiritual deception and misinformation 34:10 Faith, obedience, and biblical preparation 42:35 Breaking free from spiritual strongholds and false doctrine 52:10 Covenant faithfulness and kingdom authority 59:30 The importance of spiritual discernment 1:06:40 Strengthening the inner man 1:12:15 Worship, prayer, fasting, and spiritual endurance 1:20:05 The armor of God and preparing before battle 1:25:40 Building healthy remnant communities 1:33:10 Economic wisdom and practical preparation 1:39:25 Perseverance, endurance, and overcoming 1:45:00 Final encouragement and prayer Scriptures Discussed Proverbs 22:3 Genesis 6–9 Genesis 41 Deuteronomy 28 Psalm 91 Matthew 24 Ephesians 3:16 Ephesians 6:10-18 Hebrews 10:23-25 Revelation 2–3 2 Thessalonians 2 James 1 Proverbs 6:6-8 Proverbs 21:20 Partner With Biblical Life Biblical Life TV and Kingdom Intelligence Briefing exist to equip, inform, and empower the remnant for the last days through uncompromising biblical teaching, kingdom discipleship, and prophetic insight grounded in the Word of God.

Nobody told you the waiting is the work. We live in a world that rewards being discovered — going viral, moving fast, getting noticed. But God's economy runs on something entirely different: development. And development always happens in the dark. In week two of this summer series, Christine Caine takes us into the darkroom — the season of delay, disappointment, and hiddenness that God uses not to hold us back, but to build the roots that will hold us up when everything shakes. Christine Caine does it through the story of a young man named David: anointed at 17, appointed at 37. Twenty years. Twenty chapters. And not one of them wasted. This isn't a season you endure. It's a season you grow in. Originally heard by over 135,000 people — what is God growing in you right now that you can't yet see? ✨ If you've ever asked questions like… ✅ Why does it feel like everyone else is moving forward while I'm still waiting? ✅ I feel called and gifted — so why isn't anything happening yet? ✅ What's the difference between a gift and an anointing — and why does it matter? ✅ How do I stay faithful in private when no one seems to notice? ✅ Why does God's process feel so slow when the world moves so fast? ✅ What do I do when I feel overlooked by the people who were supposed to see me? ✅ How do I stop comparing my journey to someone else's highlight reel? …then this is your episode.
