On this week's episode of Next Level Minds, I sit down with entrepreneur, author, and U.S. Navy veteran Richie Breaux. Richie's story is one of resilience, faith, and bold leadership. After surviving two house fires as a kid and navigating the challenges of military service, Richie stepped into entrepreneurship with little more than a beat-up truck, a leap of faith, and a dream. Together with his wife Tiffany, he built a construction company in Hawai‘i that has grown into one of the fastest-rising in the country—earning a spot on the Inc. 5000 list and landing major projects like a $34M renovation for NBA star Zach LaVine. But Richie's true mission goes deeper than building homes. Through trauma, transition, and success, he discovered his higher calling: building people, not just businesses. In our conversation, Richie shares powerful lessons from his new book Builder of All Things—a raw, faith-driven look at overcoming adversity, finding purpose, and leading with conviction in today's world. If you're looking for a conversation that blends entrepreneurship, faith, and personal transformation, you won't want to miss this one.

In this episode, host Shaesta Waiz speaks with Lynda Coffman—CEO of Women in Aviation International, former United Airlines executive, and Northwestern adjunct professor— about sustaining a qualified aviation workforce while navigating the rollback of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Lynda shares her journey from being the first female engineer in United's powerplant group to leading airport operations across 63 stations and founding United Ground Express. She reflects on how DEI has been misunderstood, why access is not about lowering standards, and how systemic, purpose-driven action strengthens aviation's safety and growth. They discuss why shrinking the pipeline hurts everyone, how leaders can challenge unconscious bias in real time, and why support networks and “personal boards of directors” are essential for women entering aviation today. Lynda closes with advice to stay rooted in passion, build strong communities, and never let others decide what you are capable of.

Scores of people today, even in many of our churches, walk around aimless. They work their jobs and take care of their families, but they struggle to understand what it is that God wants them to do.He's told us!

Americans say it takes more money to feel financiallycomfortable now than it did a year ago, according to a survey by Charles Schwaband The Globe and Mail. Nearly half (48%) of those surveyed reported that theyare either already financially comfortable or are on track to achieve thatstatus. A quarter (25%) believe that achieving financial comfort is possible,but it will require changes in their lifestyle. In terms of wealth, a third (35%) of Americans think theyare either on track to be wealthy or already are, while a quarter (26%) feelthat they can reach wealth but will need to make significant lifestyleadjustments. Overall, achieving financial comfort and wealth issignificantly more attainable for individuals who identify as savers,investors, and planners. Andrew Gold, Vice President of Wealth and Tax Strategyat Prestige Wealth Management in Southlake, TX, specializes in helpingindividuals take control of their finances, grow their wealth, and retain moreof what they earn through strategic tax planning, smart deductions, and realestate insights. One of the main reasons I entered this profession is due toan experience I had at a young age. After receiving an insurance check from ahit-and-run accident, I sought advice on how to manage the money responsiblyfor long-term wealth. To my surprise, no one wanted to work with me because Iwas too young and didn't have enough money. I faced two choices: work hard andblindly save until I had enough to earn someone's attention, or work hard,save, and learn from the ground up on my own. By age 24, as a husband and afather to a one-year-old, I took a leap of faith and left a comfortable job infinance, choosing to cut my pay in half to pursue a career sharingwealth-building strategies, trading techniques, and real estate tips that I hadlearned along the way. Today, with my third child on the way, I have experience ininvestments across businesses and real estate. I dedicate my time to helpingothers grow and diversify their wealth through proven strategies and thoughtfultax planning.

Continuing our work with the Third Chakra, today's insight is about channeling your life force, or zest, into positive action. Unaddressed anger can be a powerful but destructive energy. When you feel anger, it's often a sign of a boundary crossed or an unmet need. Spiritually, this is an opportunity to assert your will in a healthy way. Psychologically, studies show that channeling intense emotion into productive, goal-oriented activities (like creative work or exercise) can lead to a state of flow, reducing rumination and increasing feelings of accomplishment. WELCOME TO THIS WEEK'S SERIES: THE UNCONDITIONAL HEART: TURNING ANGER INTO POSITIVE ENERGY This series is your guide to transforming the energy of anger into something powerful and positive. We'll explore spiritual insights and practices rooted in the chakra system, a concept in Eastern traditions that describes energetic centers in the body. We'll move from the core of your power to the wellspring of your creativity, culminating in the limitless compassion of your heart. This is day 2 of a 7-day meditation series, "The Unconditional Heart: Turning Anger into Positive Energy," episodes 3360-3369. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE Acts of Compassion Quest: For the next seven days, practice one small act of self-compassion and one act of gratitude each day. This could be as simple as acknowledging your own humanity when you make a mistake and consciously listing one thing you are thankful for. YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY DURING THIS WEEK'S SERIES Day 1: Releasing Anger Visualization Day 2: Affirmation: "I give thanks to this present moment." Day 3: Flowing River Breath Day 4: Mudra to Trust Yourself Day 5: Second chakra flow meditation Day 6: Flow meditation combining the week's techniques Day 7: Weekly review meditation and closure SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

Shoot Me A Quick Text & Introduce YourselfI'll be real with you, I needed a break. I was running on fumes, pouring out more than I was putting back in, and it caught up with me. So I stepped away, recharged, and got clear on where I'm headed. Now I'm back, rebranded, and more aligned than ever, and I'm excited to take you with me.In this episode, I'm sharing why that break was necessary, the power of hitting reset before burnout takes over, and how you can use my R.E.S.E.T. method to realign your own life. Because sometimes, the best way to move forward is to step back, breathe, and start again with purpose.Support the showCoaching Free download: 5 Mindset Shifts & Micro-HabitsInstagram - Follow the podcast on Instagram YouTubeSupport the show - Show your appreciation by supporting the show
