Send us Fan MailPeaches and Aaron sit down for a Memorial Day conversation that's honest, reflective, hilarious, and painfully real all at the same time. The boys break down the actual meaning behind Memorial Day, the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day, and why the internet keeps turning remembrance into performative sadness instead of intentional celebration of the people we lost.They talk about friends killed in combat, training accidents, suicide, and the long list of names that never really leaves your mind—but also why most of those guys would absolutely hate seeing everyone sit around miserable on a four-day weekend.Then the conversation turns into Murph workouts, Vegas summers, Soft Week chaos, UFC fights, Fourth of July energy, military fitness standards, Pentagon bureaucracy, and leaked guidance from Pete Hegseth demanding a more merit-based warfighting culture across the force.Bottom line: honor the fallen however you want—but live your life hard enough that they'd be proud you're still here doing it.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 Memorial Day Hits Different 02:00 Intentional Remembrance vs Sadness 04:00 Remembering the Boys 06:00 Memorial Day vs Veterans Day 08:00 Why Internet Guilt Is Annoying 10:00 What the Fallen Would Actually Want 12:00 “Bad Day to Be a Coors Light” 14:00 Stay Connected to Gold Star Families 16:00 Murph Workouts & Memorial Traditions 19:00 The Best Way to Partition Murph 22:00 Vegas Summers Are Elite 24:00 Tampa vs Las Vegas 27:00 Soft Week Bro Culture 30:00 America's 250th Birthday Energy 33:00 Why Patriotism Feels Different Again 36:00 Red, White & Blue Everywhere 38:00 AI, Skynet & Letting America Cook 40:00 Leaked Meritocracy Memo from Hegseth 43:00 Fitness Standards Across the Military 46:00 Why Weakness Gets Celebrated Online 49:00 The Profession of Arms Matters 52:00 Why Every Military Member Needs Baseline Fitness 55:00 The Problem with Excuses 57:00 Memorial Day Final Thoughts

Am Anfang stand die Frage, wer die eigenen, biologischen Eltern sind. Danach hat Alexander Alberts-Dakash die genealogische Recherche zu seiner Profession gemacht: Auf der Basis von Speichelproben und DNA-Profilen forscht der DNA-Detektiv in Kirchenbüchern, Sterberegistern und anderen Dokumenten nach der Herkunft seiner Klienten, in der Regel Adoptiv-, Spender- oder Kuckuckskinder. Das Wissen über die eigene Herkunft, sagt er, sei zentral für die Identitätsbildung eines Menschen. In politisch, wirtschaftlich und gesellschaftlich unsicheren Zeiten boomt das Interesse an der Ahnenforschung.

A lawyer and award-winning author has fused her two worlds into one striking work, releasing a novel she describes as a sharp "piss-take" of the Australian legal profession and the entrenched norms that shape life within it. In a recent episode of The Protégé Podcast, host Grace Robbie speaks with Rebecca Lim, the head of legal, financial services regulatory at Judo Bank and an award-winning author, about her unique dual career spanning law and writing. Lim unpacks her journey navigating both worlds, shares why creative outlets for lawyers are essential, delves into the transferable skills from writing that have shaped her legal skill set, and explains how she balances two demanding yet very different careers. Lim also discusses her newly published book, which she described as a sharp "piss-take" of the Australian legal profession, where her protagonist turns the traditional corporate ladder narrative on its head, unpacks what she hopes young lawyers will take from the book, and explains how liberating it was to write so candidly and so differently, for a legal audience.

What happens when success looks right from the outside, but feels empty on the inside?In this soulful conversation, Florian Kemmerich, impact investor, author, and purpose-driven educator, joins Mirror Talk to explore how we can align our purpose with our profession before burnout, emptiness, or misalignment begins to define our lives.Through his book On Vocation, Florian invites us to rethink success, vocation, responsibility, and meaningful contribution. He shares why stress, confusion, and dissatisfaction are not always signs of failure. Sometimes, they are signals calling us back to ourselves.Together, we explore vocation, inner child work, impact investing, ethical leadership, the future of work in the age of AI, and how to build a life that reflects who we truly are.In This Episode, We Discuss:The difference between vocation, career, and external successWhy high-achieving people often feel inwardly disconnectedHow stress and dissatisfaction can become signals for realignmentThe role of inner child reflection in self-discoveryHow AI can support human purpose instead of replacing itWhy money should be seen as a means, not an endWhat impact investing teaches us about dignity, service, and stewardshipHow to move from reflection to responsibilityThe first honest steps toward rebuilding a life that feels trueKey Takeaways:Vocation is not just what you do. It is how you bring your whole self into meaningful contribution.Burnout and emptiness often reveal a deeper need for alignment.True success requires inner grounding, not only achievement.AI should be used as a tool to enhance human creativity, purpose, and agency.Purpose is often discovered through reflection, responsibility, and courageous action.Money matters, but it becomes dangerous when it becomes the final goal.A meaningful life is built patiently through honest self-inquiry and service.Powerful Quotes:“Money is a means, not an end.”“Take responsibility and own your life.”“Contributing to the world bigger than me.”Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Vocation and Purpose02:37 The Importance of Finding Peace in Vocation05:00 The Role of AI in Human Agency07:28 The Journey of Self-Discovery09:56 Understanding the Inner Child12:50 The Disconnect Between Success and Self-Realization15:23 Impacting Lives Through Vocation17:41 The Role of Parenting in Career Choices20:13 Connecting with the Inner Child23:05 Identifying Vocation and Next Steps23:23 Exploring Nigerian Culture and Identity23:57 Exercises for Self-Discovery and Identity27:54 Peeling the Onion: Childhood Memories and Their Impact29:59 Finding Purpose Beyond Money33:54 Navigating Career Choices in the Age of AI36:52 Stress, Confusion, and the Pursuit of Purpose41:38 Taking Responsibility for Your Life43:25 Connecting with Florian and Resources for GrowthResources:Florian Kemmerich's Website: https://on-vocation.comBook: On Vocation by Florian KemmerichVocating App: https://on-vocation.com/vocating-appGuest:Florian KemmerichConnect With Florian:Website: https://on-vocation.comListen to Mirror Talk:Website: https://mirrortalkpodcast.comClosing Reflection:If you have been chasing success but quietly wondering whether the life you are building truly belongs to you, this episode is an invitation to pause, listen, and realign.

The hygienist shortage isn't actually a hygienist shortage. Something broke when consultants walked in with a spreadsheet and turned the most trust-rich role in your practice into a quota. In this episode, Dr. Dave unpacks why your hygienist isn't a producer.

Christoph Chorherr gestaltet die vierte Folge der Sonderserie zur „Zukunft der Demokratie“ mit einem Gespräch über das neue Buch von Götz Aly „Wie konnte das geschehen?“, das den Untergang der Weimarer Demokratie und die Entstehung des Nationalsozialismus aus der Perspektive der Mehrheitsgesellschaft beleuchtet. Aly schildert biografisch, wie er als Nachkriegskind über NS‑Prozesse, Filme über Konzentrationslager und das Schweigen der Eltern zur Auseinandersetzung mit Nationalsozialismus und Shoah kam und warum er darin weniger ein Staats- als ein Gesellschaftsversagen erkennt. Er kritisiert das gängige Gedenkstättenkonzept, das Täter als „SS‑Monster“ auslagert und die Identifikation mit Opfern erleichtert, während die Beteiligung der „halbwegs normalen“ Deutschen und Österreicher an Arisierung, Zwangsarbeit und Deportationen weitgehend ausgeblendet bleibt. Ausführlich erklärt Aly, wodurch die NS‑Regierung bis 1938 so populär wurde: durch radikale soziale Maßnahmen zugunsten von Mietern, Bauern, Arbeitslosen und Kriegsversehrten, finanziert durch Schulden, höhere Steuern für Vermögende und Unternehmen sowie eine Politik der materiellen „Bestechung“ breiter Schichten. Ebenso zeigt er, wie moderne Massenmedien – vor allem Radio, Kino-Wochenschau und Unterhaltungsfilme – mit 85 Prozent Unterhaltung und wohldosierter Propaganda kombinierte, um Zustimmung zu Hitler, zur Aufrüstung und später zum Krieg emotional abzusichern. Am Beispiel der „Euthanasie“-Morde an psychisch Kranken und Behinderten und der späteren Judendeportationen beschreibt Aly, wie Verwaltung, medizinische Profession, Nachbarschaften und Familien stufenweise in ein System des Mitwissens, Mitprofitierens und opportunistischen Schweigens hineingezogen wurden. In einem zweiten Schwerpunkt vergleicht er die Endphase der Weimarer Republik mit heutigen Demokratien: Die damalige Zersplitterung und Selbstblockade der Parteien der Mitte, das Ausweichen in Symbolpolitik und die Angst, Wählerinnen und Wählern unangenehme Wahrheiten zu zumuten, erkennt er in abgeschwächter Form auch in Berlin, Wien, Paris und Washington. Aly warnt jedoch vor inflationären Faschismus‑Vergleichen, plädiert dafür, von Nationalsozialismus bzw. „Hitlerismus“ zu sprechen und die konkreten sozialen und politischen Mechanismen von Stabilisierung und Radikalisierung genau zu analysieren, statt alles mit einem Schimpfwort zu überdecken. Abschließend reflektiert er seine eigene 68er‑Biografie („Unser Kampf“), zeigt die langen Schatten elterlicher NS‑Biografien und formuliert einen Satz, den er auf ein großes Plakat am Potsdamer Platz schreiben würde: „Bildet euch nicht ein, ihr würdet auf der besseren Seite der Geschichte stehen.“ Links zur Folge: Götz Aly auf Wikipedia Buch "Wie konnte das geschehen?" (S.

What does it look like to turn your passion into your profession more than once?In this episode of Passion to Profession, Brett sits down with John Walaszek, Content Strategist at PSA, to unpack the path from music blogs to the sports card industry.John didn't wait for permission. He built.He started a blog when no one replied to his emails.He created content when no role existed for it.He followed what held his attention and turned it into a career.Now he's doing it again. This time in cards.This conversation covers: Why doing the work before the opportunity matters  How building on the internet became his resume  What he learned working inside major media and record labels  Why authenticity still wins, even in crowded markets  The gap between music content and sports card content  Why the hobby still feels early from a content standpoint  What it takes to make the jump into the industry If you've ever thought about building something around what you care about, this one will hit.Because the path isn't linear.It's built through action.Sign up for Hobby Jobs and The Weekly Rip for freeA special thank you to eBay for sponsoring Passion to Profession.

What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus, not just someone who attends church, but someone who actually follows him? This message from New Vision Church in Fayetteville, Georgia, is a call to examine where you really stand.Pastor George introduces a framework of spiritual CPR: Confession, Profession, and Repentance — three essentials for anyone who feels their faith has gone cold or wants to come back to life. He also challenges those already walking with the Lord to take the next step: being conformed to Christ and genuinely committed, not just on paper.Using Luke 9, he works through what it actually costs to follow Jesus and asks the question most of us avoid: are you a disciple, or just someone who agreed with the idea of one?New Vision Church — Fayetteville, Georgia.A community to belong, be loved, and believe.

Send us Fan MailYvonne and Rafael sit down with Heather Lore, Executive Director of the IAIABC, for a conversation that covers some important (and undertalked) topics in workers' comp right now.What we get into:

Today's guest proves that a creative career doesn't have to rely on algorithms, going viral, or luck. If you've ever wondered how to strategize your creativity like a real profession—and build a living from your work—this conversation is for you.Kern Carter is a former indie and current traditionally published author writing books for Penguin and Scholastic. He writes essays at the intersection of publishing and pop culture, offering candid insight into what it actually takes to make a living as an author and creative entrepreneur.www.kerncarter.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/kerncarter/In the past year alone, Kern has sold approximately 15,000 books—without being popular on any social media platform—by intentionally building and leveraging community. His journey includes dropping out of high school at 18 when he became a father, earning a full athletic scholarship, self-publishing his first books, securing an agent, and signing multiple traditional publishing deals beginning in 2021.Beyond books, Kern runs a thriving creative business spanning film production (with a film on Amazon Prime Video), ghostwriting, and platforms that support emerging writers. His story is one of perseverance, planning, and playing the long game.1) Designing a Creative Career on PurposeKern, you've said you're living the life you told yourself you'd live at eight years old—and that it didn't happen by accident. How did you approach building a creative career the way someone might approach a traditional profession, with strategy, planning, and long-term vision?2) Prioritizing Yourself While Raising a ChildYou became a father very young, yet you still prioritized your creative ambitions. That's a difficult balance for many people. How did you navigate that tension—and what impact did that decision have on both your career and your relationship with your daughter?3) Selling Books Without Social Media FameYou've sold roughly 15,000 books in the last year without being popular on social media, which goes against most advice writers hear today. What role has community building played in your success, and how can writers start building real relationships instead of chasing followers?4) Playing the Long GameYour journey took 15 years to reach what many would call “overnight success.” How did you stay motivated through the slower seasons, and what mindset shifts helped you keep going when results weren't immediate?5) Education, Income, and the Future of Creative WorkYou've been outspoken about what formal education gets wrong when it comes to preparing writers to earn a living. What do you think aspiring authors really need to learn—and how are you personally adapting to changes like AI entering creative industries?For creatives listening who feel behind, discouraged, or unsure if their plan is working—what's one thing you want them to remember about patience, strategy, and belief in themselves?

The 7 Steps to Align Purpose with Profession   Finding Your Vocation    At 33, Florian Kemmerich was running a major healthcare corporation with all the external markers of success. Yet in a therapy session, his inner child delivered a brutal truth: "What you do makes no sense." That moment launched him on a 25-year journey across four continents, mobilizing nearly $1B in impact capital, and creating a structured methodology called "vocating" to help people align their purpose with their profession. In this episode, Rocky and Florian explore why your six-figure business might be making you miserable, how to distinguish between a job and a vocation, and why human agency matters more than ever in the age of AI.    Learning Insights  Success Without Purpose Creates Burnout, Not Freedom. Most high-achieving business owners believe they're working toward freedom and fulfillment. In reality, they're building golden handcuffs. The longer you defer living your actual life, the more trapped you become by your own success.   Your Inner Child Knows What Your Adult Self Denies. We're taught from childhood to suppress our intuition, our feelings, and our natural inclinations in favor of external markers of success.   The Difference Between a Job, a Career, and a Vocation. A job is transactional. You trade time for money. A vocation is something entirely different. It's work that matters to you, that serves something greater than your ego, that aligns with your deepest values. When you have a true vocation, you don't have to justify it to anyone because you're not doing it to perform. You're doing it because you can't imagine doing anything else.  Your Superpower Needs a Purpose to Matter. You might be excellent at financial modeling, marketing, operations, or sales. But excellence without purpose is just technical skill.   True Service Isn't About Helping, It's About Investing Yourself. Florian learned this brutal lesson when the child he had photographed for his nonprofit's newsletter died from a preventable infection. Real impact requires sustained investment, not charity.    Why This Conversation Matters  This conversation matters because it addresses the silent crisis affecting millions of successful entrepreneurs and business owners. You can optimize your profit margins, streamline your operations, and scale your revenue, but if you're not doing work that matters to you, you will eventually hit a wall. Usually around age 40 or 50. For small business owners between $1M and $25M in revenue, the stakes are particularly high because you have enough success to feel trapped but not enough flexibility to easily pivot. This episode provides both the framework for understanding your misalignment and a practical methodology for fixing it before the midlife crisis forces the issue.    Money Learning  The relationship between money and vocation is not what most business owners believe it to be. The conventional wisdom says you earn money first and do what you love later, but Florian's evidence from 25 years of impact investing across four continents suggests the opposite. When people align their work with their actual purpose, they naturally become more effective, more resilient, and ultimately more profitable. The stress becomes healthy, self-inflicted stress driven by intrinsic motivation rather than the corrosive stress of doing work that doesn't matter. You don't have to sacrifice financial success to find vocational alignment. In fact, the two reinforce each other when done correctly.    Key Takeaway  The question you should ask yourself is not "How can I make more money?" or "How can I become more successful?" The question is "What did my inner child actually want before society told me what I should want?" Once you answer that with honesty, your next question is "How can I use my skills and resources to serve that purpose?" The rest follows naturally. You may not feel this misalignment yet, but Florian's research suggests it's coming for most high-achieving people. The earlier you ask the question, the more of your life you get to actually live.    If you're ready to explore your vocation and align your business with your actual purpose, don't miss this episode!    About Florian Kemmerich  Florian Kemmerich is an impact investor, serial entrepreneur, purpose strategist, and global keynote speaker who helps individuals and institutions align purpose with profession to drive systemic impact. He is the author of On Vocation: How to Align Your Purpose with Your Profession (Routledge, 2025), introducing "vocating"—a structured seven-step method for building a vocation that supports personal fulfilment and societal transformation.  Over 25+ years across Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia, he has mobilised nearly $1B in impact capital and co-founded Human Planet and Resilienture—ventures advancing climate resilience, humanitarian innovation, and innovative finance. He has lectured and facilitated at Oxford Saïd, IMD's Executive MBA, the YPO Global Impact Summit, and more, leading "On Vocation" workshops on purpose, resilience, and impact-driven leadership.  A former paratrooper, multilingual communicator (German, English, Spanish, French, Italian), father of five, and musician at heart, Florian blends personal development, strategy, systems thinking, and impact investing. His journey from bullied outsider to judo champion to international impact investor underpins his leitmotif: "Impact Lives, Share Profits."    Links  Website: https://on-vocation.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/floriankemmerich/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/florian.onvocation  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flokemmerich  X: https://x.com/flokemmerich  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FloKemmerich      Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul  Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.
