After a pile of sweet romances, sometimes you need something with... teeth.  You know?  And what's better than a book with a bit of both?  Listen in while Lori DeJong and I chat about Mistletoe and Malice! note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.  This was such a fun conversation. And chatting about the fun of hiding from would-be abductors, reluctant bodyguards, and all the fun?  How could it not be??? Mistletoe and Malice by Lori DeJong After barely escaping an attempted abduction, Houston attorney Riley Hudson is forced to accept her wealthy father's demand for private security. The last thing she wants is a bodyguard—especially one as maddeningly arrogant, bossy … and handsome as Colton Blankenship. Yet as the threat against her escalates, she begins to rely not only on his skills, but his steadfast presence. Colton isn't thrilled about giving up his hard-earned holiday vacation to protect a spoiled heiress. But he soon learns Riley is nothing like he expected. Fierce, independent, and unwavering in her faith, she's everything he thought he'd left behind after tragedy shattered his own beliefs. As the unknown threat circles closer, the tension between them ignites into something deeper … and far more perilous. When a second attempt on Riley's life nearly succeeds, Colton faces a terrifying truth. Protecting her means risking more than just his life. Haunted by a past he can't outrun, and a faith he's all but lost, he must decide if he can trust God again … before he loses Riley—and his heart—for good. We also talked about the final book in her True Calling series, Love's True Measure. You can learn more about Lori (and join her newsletter!) on her WEBSITE. Find her on GoodReads and BookBub.

In this episode, I'm diving into a topic I've been learning on a much deeper level: energetic boundaries. After betrayal, it's common to feel like your energy is everywhere except inside your own body. You might find yourself over-functioning, scanning for danger, tracking moods, or trying to manage other people's emotional states. Even when someone is doing everything "right" on paper, your energy may still feel drained or scattered. In this conversation, I break down what energetic boundaries actually are, why they matter, and how to recognize the signs that yours have become thin or compromised. I share examples from my own life and from the healing work I do with clients, especially around emotional fusion, hyper-attunement, and the feeling of losing your clarity or intuition. I also walk you through simple but powerful practices to call your energy back, create more groundedness, and reconnect with your own truth so you can make decisions from a place of strength rather than depletion. Takeaways: What energetic boundaries are and why they matter Signs your energy is being pulled outward How to ground yourself and restore your own energetic field Why reclaiming your energy strengthens clarity and intimacy If you want help building strong internal boundaries and restoring your sense of self, please reach out.

The Drive opened the show explaining how the Chiefs need to win on Sunday or they lose the mystique that has surrounded them since Mahomes became the starter.

The 94 WIP Morning Show knows the Eagles' philosophy of ball protection is helpful, but they believe the Eagles need to have a more consistent offense to ensure wins. Also, James Seltzer will do what for $50,000??

They need us just as much as we need them. 

What if we could bridge the divide between healthcare leaders who understand that team member safety and wellbeing is essential and those who view it as nice-to-have with a small shift in focus? That's what happens when Carlton Abner, DNP, RN, NBC-HWC, reframes wellbeing goals as protecting capacity – whether capacity to learn or teach, perform or recover, or empathize and connect. In this episode of Caring Greatly, Dr. Abner shares what it means to protect capacity for students at Kansas City University (KCU), including medical students. He shares how important capacity protection is for a generation of students who want to engage differently in their work, with a strong focus on passion and connection.Dr. Abner's 30+ years of healthcare and leadership experience began as an ER/trauma nurse with the Army where he led interprofessional teams within various healthcare settings around the world. Today he serves as the Vice Provost for Student Engagement and Wellbeing at KCU. In this role, he works to elevate and strengthen the overall culture of student engagement and comprehensive wellbeing strategies. Before joining KCU, Dr. Abner was the Dean and Lead Faculty for the Veterans Affairs Innovative Technology Advancement Lab at Cerner in Kansas City, Missouri. He recently retired as a Lieutenant Colonel from the Kansas Air National Guard, where he was one of only 89 Chief Nursing Executives nationwide, culminating a distinguished 25-year military career.Dr. Carlton Abner is a leader who cares greatly. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Stryker.

What if every crown, implant, or veneer you placed didn't just build smiles—but built wealth? In this episode, Dr. Len Tau sits down with innovators Max Zanan and Adam Marburger of Dental Protection Group to reveal how dentists can turn warranties into a new revenue stream. They're showing why protecting your patients' dental work can also protect—and grow—your financial future. They explain how this simple yet powerful concept—borrowed from the automotive industry—offers dentists a way to increase patient trust, improve case acceptance, and build long-term wealth through profit-sharing warranty programs. Max and Adam share how their model allows dentists to turn warranties into wealth-building vehicles, all while protecting patients and creating a new stream of passive income in a tax-advantaged environment. They also discuss how to get your team on board, how to present warranties to patients, and why this model is changing how entrepreneurial dentists think about their businesses. You'll learn: Warranties Build Trust: Patients already value protection plans in every purchase—offering one in dentistry creates instant credibility and peace of mind. Wealth Through Risk Transfer: Unlike goodwill replacements, Dental Protection Group's model lets dentists transfer risk and receive compensation when failures occur. Profit Sharing Opportunity: Money left over from unclaimed warranties is returned to the practice, compounding over time like a "401(k) on steroids." Team Buy-In Is Key: Success depends on making warranties part of the practice culture—presented as a standard part of every procedure, not an upsell. Entrepreneurial Dentistry: The program empowers dentists to generate long-term, tax-friendly income, fund growth, or even retire earlier.   Key Takeaways 00:44 Introduction and Event Highlights 02:30 Meet the Dental Protection Group 04:35 Understanding Dental Warranties 06:00 The Value of Warranties in Dentistry 06:40 Warranties as a Consumer Expectation 10:40 Differentiating Warranties from Goodwill 12:50 The Financial Benefits of True Warranties 14:40 Wealth Building through Warranties 16:01 Creating Generational Wealth in Dentistry 17:40 Implementing Warranties in Practice 20:55 The Culture of Warranties in Dental Practices 22:52 The Perfect Scenario for Implementation 28:00 Handling Patient Objections 30:44 Team Buy-In and Incentives 31:35 Quick Onboarding Process 32:35 Transferability of Warranties 37:37 Final Thoughts and Opportunities   — Connect with Max and Adam Visit DentalProtectionGroup.com to schedule a consultation with Max and Adam.

If you've ever ended a day exhausted but unclear on what you actually accomplished, this episode is for you. Overwhelm and busyness have become the new norm. Many of us confuse being busy with being productive—which leaves us drained, and doubting ourselves.   In today's episode, Cindra and Lisa explore the mental game of prioritization and how high performers stay focused on what truly matters. You'll learn why prioritization is so hard, how clarity and completion fuel confidence, and what mindset shift is necessary to create real work–life harmony.   We also share two practical tools you can start today:   ⭐ The One Thing Question Ask yourself: "What is the one thing that, if I did it today, would make the biggest impact?" This question cuts through noise, strengthens self-trust, and builds confidence.  

For more than 30 years, schools, hospitals, and places of worship have been considered "sensitive locations" — spaces protected from immigration enforcement. But recently, President Trump has moved to strip away those protections, opening the door for ICE to enter campuses and target families. Now, a coalition of educator unions, community organizations, and families has come together to fight back. Our guest is Karen Tumlin, Founder and Director of the Justice Action Center, and one of the attorneys leading the PCUN v. Noem lawsuit, which seeks to restore these decades-old protections and defend every student's right to learn without fear.

In this episode, Liv goes straight to the heart of what keeps women from their next level... not fear of failure, but fear of becoming the woman who no longer flinches when everything she's prayed for arrives.She reveals how your nervous system tries to “protect” you from the very edge that would change everything, and why true expansion only happens when you stop calculating your life and start claiming it.Here's what's inside:

Steve Gruber sits down with Mark Mix, President of the National Right to Work Committee and the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, to discuss a bold new legislative push to protect independent-minded workers from unwanted union control. Sen. Bill Cassidy's Worker RESULTS Act aims to restore workplace democracy by mandating secret-ballot union elections, banning coercive “card check” organizing, and cutting back on union bosses' ability to block workers from voting out ineffective representation. Mark explains how this proposal stands in stark contrast to other plans, like Sen. Josh Hawley's “Faster Labor Contracts Act,” which could impose forced arbitration and strip workers of their rights. This conversation highlights the fight to defend worker freedom and choice in the workplace.

Protecting The Lives Of American Law Enforcement Officers: A Special Episode on Trauma, Health, and Hope. The average life expectancy for American law enforcement officers is just 57 years, a stark contrast to the general population's 78 to 79 years. Behind that number lies a sobering reality: a career spent protecting others often comes at the expense of one's own health. This special episode of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast is available for free on their website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and many other podcast platforms. Heart disease, chronic stress, trauma, and the relentless demands of the badge all play a role. “Many officers only live a few years into retirement,” says John Jay Wiley, host of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. “That's not just a statistic, it's a tragedy that reflects the immense pressure these men and women endure.” Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms.

The Hidden Cost of the Badge, Protecting The Lives Of American Law Enforcement Officers: A Special Episode on Trauma, Health, and Hope. Officers face risks that go beyond the dangers of the streets. Studies show that law enforcement professionals have: A much higher rate of heart disease, with heart attacks often striking as early as age 46, compared to 65 in the general population. Elevated risks of hypertension, diabetes, and obesity, conditions tied directly to chronic stress and irregular shift work. Shorter retirements, with many officers passing away just a few years after leaving the job. “It's not just the stress of one bad day,” Wiley explains. “It's the accumulation of hundreds of critical incidents over a career, what we call death by a thousand cuts.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. The Psychological Battle Caron, who spent years investigating child pornography and sex crimes, describes the haunting reality of prolonged exposure to such cases. “When you're staring into that darkness every day, it leaves a mark,” he says. “You see the worst of humanity, and it takes discipline and community to not let that darkness consume you.” Protecting The Lives Of American Law Enforcement Officers: A Special Episode on Trauma, Health, and Hope. According to research, trauma in law enforcement leads to alarmingly high rates of PTSD, depression, and anxiety: PTSD rates among police officers reach as high as 35%*, compared to 6.8% in the general population. Officers are far more likely to experience emotional numbing, hyperarousal, and flashbacks from traumatic events. Many suffer from compassion fatigue**, a type of emotional burnout caused by repeated exposure to tragedy and human suffering. Caron explains that repeated exposure to graphic violence and child exploitation can cause what psychologists call traumatic layering. “It's not one event, it's hundreds,” he says. “Each one leaves a scar.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. The Ripple Effects The consequences of trauma ripple through every aspect of an officer's life: Emotional strain often leads to relationship issues and isolation. Negative coping mechanisms, like alcohol or substance use, are far too common. Cognitive impairment from chronic stress affects memory, judgment, and performance on duty. Physical health problems such as high blood pressure, gastrointestinal issues, and cardiovascular disease frequently follow. “Every case, every call, adds another layer,” Wiley says. “And too often, we lose great people not in the line of duty, but to the silent battles they fight afterward.” Protecting The Lives Of American Law Enforcement Officers: A Special Episode on Trauma, Health, and Hope.  The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Protecting Those Who Protect Us Throughout the conversation, Caron shares the methods he and his teams used to safeguard their mental health while investigating the most disturbing crimes imaginable. “We had to find ways to stay human,” he says. “Exercise, faith, humor, and having a strong support system, it all mattered.” Caron now dedicates his post-service career to helping others stay “Switched On”, the philosophy behind his bestselling book SWITCHED ON, The Heart and Mind of a Special Agent and his mindset program, Switched On Life.

Insurance companies are evolving faster than most private practices realize — and not in your favor. The system is quietly shifting the burden onto physicians, creating financial strain and administrative chaos behind the scenes. In this episode, Zed Williamson speaks with Olga Khabinskay, Director of Operations at WCH Service Bureau and board member of the Healthcare Business Management Association, to pull back the curtain on what's really happening inside the insurance ecosystem — and what practices can do to protect themselves. If you feel like you're constantly battling insurance with no end in sight, this episode reframes the issue entirely. You are not powerless — you just need the right strategies to reclaim control.

Global heating continues, despite the increased use of renewable energy sources and international policies attempting otherwise. Even as emissions reduction efforts continue, our world faces more extreme weather, sea level rise, and human health impacts, all of which are projected to accelerate in the coming decades. This raises an important but controversial question: at what point might more drastic interventions, like geoengineering, become necessary in order to cool the planet? In this episode, Nate interviews Professor Ted Parson about solar geoengineering (specifically stratospheric aerosol injection) as a potential response to severe climate risks. They explore why humanity may need to consider deliberately cooling Earth by spraying reflective particles in the upper atmosphere, how the technology would work, as well as the risks and enormous governance challenges involved. Ted emphasizes the importance of having these difficult conversations now, so that we're prepared for the wide range of climate possibilities in the future. How does stratospheric aerosol injection actually work? What is the likelihood that a major nation (or rogue billionaire) might employ this approach in the next thirty years? What ethical, moral, and biophysical concerns should we consider as we weigh the costs and benefits of further altering Earth's planetary balance?    About Ted Parson: Edward A. (Ted) Parson is Dan and Rae Emmett Professor of Environmental Law and Faculty Director of the Emmett Institute on Climate Change and the Environment at the University of California, Los Angeles. Parson studies international environmental law and policy, the societal impacts and governance of disruptive technologies including geoengineering and artificial intelligence, and the political economy of regulation.  His most recent books are The Science and Politics of Global Climate Change (with Andrew Dessler), and A Subtle Balance: Evidence, Expertise, and Democracy in Public Policy and Governance, 1970-2010. His 2003 book, Protecting the Ozone Layer: Science and Strategy, won the Sprout Award of the International Studies Association and is widely recognized as the authoritative account of the development of international cooperation to protect the ozone layer. In addition to his academic positions, Parson has worked and consulted for the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, the Office of Technology Assessment of the U.S. Congress, the Privy Council Office of the Government of Canada, and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA).    Show Notes and More Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

In this special live episode of the Shift AI Podcast recorded at Seattle AI Week, Dr. Andre Alfred, who leads threat operations and security for Google Cloud's Fortune 500 customers, joins host Boaz Ashkenazy for an eye-opening conversation about the intersection of AI and cybersecurity. With his remarkable journey from high school help desk operator to earning his PhD and leading security operations at Microsoft, Oracle, and Google, Andre brings a unique perspective on protecting critical infrastructure in an era where adversaries have access to the same powerful AI tools as defenders.From data poisoning threats that could compromise healthcare diagnostics to the challenges of securing physical infrastructure like water systems and power grids, Andre shares what keeps him up at night and why two-factor authentication isn't optional anymore. The conversation explores how AI is transforming both offensive and defensive capabilities in cybersecurity, why the next generation of jobs will be defined by leaders rather than technology, and Andre's commitment to visibility as an African American leader in tech. Through his scholarship program at Western Governors University, Andre is opening pathways for the next generation of cybersecurity and healthcare professionals. If you're wondering about the real security threats we're not thinking about—and why the future of work requires "more focus"—this conversation offers crucial insights from someone defending some of the world's most critical systems.Chapters[00:00] Introduction and Boaz's Journey to the Shift AI Podcast [02:37] Andre's Background and Role at Google Cloud Security [03:44] The Non-Traditional Path: From Help Desk to PhD [06:25] The Decision to Return to College and Transform Your Career [08:41] From Capital One to Microsoft to Google [12:03] What It's Like to Wake Up Every Morning in Threat Operations [14:21] The Bittersweet Reality: When Innovation Can Be Weaponized [15:31] Data Poisoning and Healthcare: The Threat We're Not Thinking About [18:37] Teaching Kids to Question What They See Online [20:06] Physical Infrastructure Vulnerabilities and Social Engineering [24:09] The Future of AI and Cybersecurity in 2030 [26:24] Creating Jobs of the Future Through Education [29:41] The Intersection of Cybersecurity and Healthcare [32:29] Leaders Must Define the Next Jobs, Not Let Technology Define Them [33:36] Being Visible as an African American in Tech [36:11] Two Words for the Future: "More Focus"Connect with Dr. Andre Alfred LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aoalfred/Connect with Boaz Ashkenazy LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/boazashkenazy Email: info@shiftai.fmSpecial thank you to Western Governers University for hosting and sponsoring this live episode at the Labor Temple in Seattle WA during AI Week.

Acefield Retro and Chad are back for Wrestling Tonight, and Episode 150 lands during one of the biggest weeks of the year. AEW is heading to Greensboro next Wednesday for Blood and Guts, live on TBS and HBO Max, with an expanded two-and-a-half-hour broadcast that feels closer to a pay-per-view than a weekly show. Hangman Page does battle against Powerhouse Hobbs in a Falls Count Anywhere match, the fifth men's Blood and Guts takes place, and for the first time ever, the women get their turn inside the cage. Greensboro isn't just another stop—it's the birthplace of WarGames, and AEW is honoring that legacy with a lineup that blends history, chaos, and spectacle. While AEW doubles down on its roots, WWE is rewriting its global playbook. Beginning in 2026, the company will run three Premium Live Events in Saudi Arabia, starting with Royal Rumble: Riyadh. The strategy is paying off in a big way. WWE officially surpassed UFC in both revenue and profit this quarter, powered by massive site fees and fewer but bigger shows. Nick Khan calls it "strategic scarcity," and the numbers prove him right. Fewer events, fuller arenas, higher prices, and bigger energy. Triple H continues to steer creative toward long-term storytelling, trading shock moments for layered narratives. The road to WrestleMania 43 runs through Montreal, Riyadh, and San Diego, with each stop feeling like a blockbuster on its own. Chelsea Green might be the story of the week. She reclaimed the Women's United States Championship on SmackDown, just days after winning the AAA Mixed Tag Titles with Ethan Page. Her rise from comic relief to crossover champion shows how WWE's new era is connecting international stories with mainline programming. AEW stirred its own headlines by unveiling the National Championship, sparking backlash from the NWA, who claim Tony Khan hijacked their legacy. Legal battles, brand pride, and a healthy dose of ego are turning a simple belt unveiling into one of the year's most intriguing real-world rivalries. Behind the scenes, AEW quietly moved its training and storage hub from Florida to Nashville, signaling a shift in infrastructure. Darby Allin celebrated a personal milestone as his long-awaited skatepark project with Tony Hawk was approved in Georgia, turning his offbeat persona into a real community legacy. In WWE, Drew McIntyre's meltdown and suspension following his attack on Cody Rhodes showed how fragile redemption arcs can be, while Ridge Holland's early release after his injury highlighted the harsh business side of the sport. And in Japan, the biggest emotional announcement of the year became official. Kazuchika Okada will face Hiroshi Tanahashi in Tanahashi's retirement match at Wrestle Kingdom 20. It's the final chapter in one of wrestling's greatest rivalries, a torch-passing moment that connects generations and promotions across the world. Outside the ring, the sports world is battling its own integrity crisis. The UFC is under FBI investigation for another betting scandal, and NBA figures like Chauncey Billups and Terry Rozier were charged in a federal gambling probe. These headlines cast a long shadow over sports entertainment as TKO navigates its dual ownership of WWE and UFC. As gambling expands across platforms, the line between competition and speculation grows thinner. Protecting legitimacy will matter just as much as growing profit. Episode 150 captures wrestling at a crossroads. AEW is refining its identity, WWE is globalizing its empire, and TKO is turning the entire industry into a corporate powerhouse. The business is bigger than ever, but it's still driven by the same thing that always made it work—real stories, human stakes, and the pull of seeing what happens next.

State Rep. John Roth, representing Michigan's 104th House District, joins Steve Gruber to discuss his reintroduction of fertility fraud legislation. The proposed measures aim to strengthen protections for women's healthcare by addressing deceptive practices in reproductive services. Rep. Roth explains what the bill entails, its intended impact, and how it seeks to safeguard patient rights and transparency in medical procedures.

At some point, every one of us becomes “the bad guy” — the person who says no, sets a line in the sand, or disappoints someone who wanted a little too much. And truthfully? That's a good thing. In this episode, Brett breaks down why being willing to let people down is essential if you want to keep your sanity, your focus, and your self-respect. Because saying yes to everything doesn't make you a better leader, coach, or friend — it just makes you a doormat. We've all seen how it happens: someone asks for a small favor here or there, and before you know it, your time, energy, and attention are getting siphoned off in a hundred directions that don't serve your goals. This conversation is about drawing the line, protecting what actually matters, and remembering that you're not supposed to serve everyone. Sometimes, being the “bad guy” is what keeps you effective, grounded, and able to keep doing the work that actually helps people long-term.
