Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Jeremy Anderson. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW The conversation between Rushion McDonald and Jeremy Anderson on Money Making Conversations Masterclass covers Jeremy’s personal transformation, his mission-driven approach to motivational speaking, the creation of Next Level Speakers Academy, the power of environment and mindset, and his philanthropic work in South Africa. The interview highlights values such as purpose over profit, taking ownership, perseverance, and maximizing one’s potential. [ PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The purpose of the episode is to: 1. Introduce Jeremy Anderson’s Work Showcase Jeremy’s role as a premier motivational speaker, founder of Next Level Speakers Academy, and co‑founder of Next Level Living, which feeds a thousand children weekly in South Africa. [ 2. Inspire Listeners Toward Purpose‑Driven Success Encourage viewers to move from “wasted potential” to purposeful, impactful living by believing in themselves and pursuing their gifts. 3. Demonstrate How Jeremy’s Principles Apply Broadly Rushion emphasizes that Jeremy’s business, branding, and mindset strategies apply not just to speakers, but to entrepreneurs, executives, and everyday people. 4. Promote Actionable Personal Growth The interview seeks to motivate listeners to take ownership, adopt non‑negotiable success habits, and maximize opportunities. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Wasted Potential is a Universal Struggle Jeremy defines wasted potential as having greatness inside but failing to believe in it or pursue it. Many people don’t lack talent — they lack belief and action. 2. Purpose Over Profit He warns new speakers not to chase “the bag.”Impact first → income follows. If your heart is for people, success comes naturally. 3. Your Story Is Your Superpower Every struggle someone has overcome is a testimony meant to help others. Keeping quiet keeps your gift hidden. 4. Maximize Every Opportunity Whether you’re speaking, laying concrete, or running a small business, get every drop out of every engagement — testimonials, photos, referrals, and relationship‑building. 5. Environment and Mindset Matter True growth starts by changing your internal environment.Jeremy’s life changed when teachers chose to see the best in him, showing that belief from others can shift self-belief. 6. Non‑Negotiables Build Discipline Success requires habits you don’t negotiate with: early rising, prayer, meditation, cold plunges, challenging discomfort, and consistent personal development. 7. Extreme Ownership Replaces Excuses Greatness comes from responsibility, not excuses. Jeremy demands accountability from his teams and himself. 8. Brand Is Built on Transparency Jeremy’s brand centers on perseverance, faith, and family—not perfection. He shares both triumphs and private struggles. 9. Giving Back Is Central to His Purpose Next Level Living feeds 1,000 children weekly and sponsors students in South Africa through college. Impact must extend beyond business. NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Purpose & Potential “Don’t come to me for profits. Come to me for purpose. Don’t come to me for income. Come to me for impact.” “It’s only a testimony if you testify.” “Most people don’t believe and they don’t pursue — that’s wasted potential.” On Mindset & Environment “I wasn’t living a life of purpose… I had to stop blaming others and go all in on me.” “Sometimes the shackles we have are in our mind.” On Discipline “Success requires non‑negotiables.” (Waking early, prayer, meditation, discomfort training) “People want comfort — but everything great comes with discomfort.” On Value “If you want to be valuable, you must have value.” “They’re not paying me top dollar because I'm motivational. I solve a problem.” On Legacy & Family “My brand is perseverance and family.” “These things don’t happen to me — they happen for me.” On Accountability “No excuses — take ownership.” “I’ve never met anyone who became great from excuses.” On Giving Back “We’ve been feeding a thousand starving children every week since 2018.” “We put 60 kids through college — and we’re just getting started.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Zac Jackson from The Athletic joins the show and lands firmly on the side of the Browns making a bid for Brendan Sorsby, calling it near malpractice to pass on a redshirt quarterback prospect given the team's history of running toward red flags and buying low on talent. Zac pegs a third round pick as the serious offer threshold, with a fourth round bid being the "we're interested but not desperate" move, and flatly dismisses the idea that adding Sorsby would muddy the Watson versus Shedeur Sanders competition since Sorsby would be a pure developmental project with no bearing on this year's starter. On Watson specifically, Zac is blunt, saying spring practice only confirmed what everyone already knew: he's the same inconsistent, inaccurate quarterback he's been and there's no reason for a team focused on the future to play him. Zac also sees a door open for LeBron to return to Cleveland, arguing there's no truly ideal landing spot for him right now and that a mix of role, sentimentality, and winning opportunity could make Cleveland a real option.

Paul speaks on how God is a Father that never stops pursing us - He is always pursing His children. God doesn't want us to do it on our own; He wants us to be still so we can ask the question on our hearts.

Sunday Morning Service Aberdeen, MD 21001

Zach McMahan shares on Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 and explains how our life will be purposeful when we pursue a right fear of God.

Pursuing the Heart of the FatherPastor Mike teaches from Proverbs 3:1-7

David and Tim explore Matthew 18:10–14, highlighting God's deep love for His children and the heart of the Good Shepherd who pursues those who wander from the flock. Look around for those God has placed in your life who need encouragement, and draw near to the Father yourself, trusting His grace to welcome you back and His love to lead others home.

Today on The Cameron Journal Podcast, we're talking with Joe Atman about happiness in support of the big virtual summit that we have coming up. While we learn about what happiness is (a state of being), we want to invite everyone to join us on July 17th and 18th for the What is Truth Summit. Visit summit.soopmedia.net to learn more about our summit and what we are talking about. Now, back to happiness, Joe and I talk about the scope of the series, what happiness is, and why it is or isn't worth pursuing.

In this week's Summer Stories message, Jeremy Agosto unpacks Jesus' parable of the lost sheep in Matthew 18:10–15, revealing the heart of a Shepherd who refuses to give up on those who wander. Through this powerful story, we discover how much God values every person, why compassion must replace contempt, and how followers of Jesus are called to join Him in pursuing the lost. Whether you're feeling far from God or burdened for someone who has drifted away, this message is a reminder that no one is beyond the reach of God's grace and that heaven rejoices when even one person is brought home.

Proverbs 1 lays out four foundational steps to receiving godly wisdom, and they build on one another in a powerful way. It all begins with a right relationship with God through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. From there, godly wisdom grows through the influence of parents, mentors, and the local church community. Pursuing holiness through the power of the Holy Spirit and actively listening to God through His Word complete the picture. The fear of the Lord is not a cowering terror but a reverent awe of who God is and what He has done. Wisdom is not just something to learn. It is something to live. ------------------------ ' The proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel: To know wisdom and instruction, to understand words of insight, to receive instruction in wise dealing, in righteousness, justice, and equity; to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the youth— Let the wise hear and increase in learning, and the one who understands obtain guidance, to understand a proverb and a saying, the words of the wise and their riddles. ' Proverbs 1:1-6

Pursuing the Broken (2 Samuel 9:1-13) Nathan Thomason 

James 1:12-18

As people of God, we are called into a covenant relationship with Him—one marked by faithfulness, obedience, and wholehearted devotion. Purity is not merely avoiding sin but daily choosing to honor God in our thoughts, words, and actions. Through the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit, we are empowered to live set apart, reflecting Christ in every area of our lives. Be blessed by this sermon as you listen and share.

Jeannette McGill is a seasoned mountaineer and executive leader who, at 52, became the oldest South African woman to summit Everest in May 2025. With more than 30 years of global climbing experience—including leading expeditions across four continents—she knows deeply that the summit is never just about standing on top.  Jeannette's journey is a testament to patience, resilience, and the quiet power of backing yourself, no matter how many setbacks you face. Beyond her personal achievements, she is passionate about demystifying the modern-day myths of Everest and advocates instead for the very real challenges mountain terrains face through climate change globally. Having been there herself, she brings an informed, honest perspective on what is truly happening above 8,000m.  Today, Jeannette combines her love for high-altitude adventure with leadership on Boards and helping others explore their own limits. She also supports future generations through leading snow camps in the Victorian Alps and mountaineering scholarships, believing that mountains are powerful teachers of courage and humility. Her story is not just about conquering peaks but about becoming the kind of person who dares to try.

In this episode, Mary Sullivan, co-founder of Sweet but Fearless, talks with Jinesha Jain, Senior Analyst and TEDx Speaker, to explore the hidden pressures that often accompany ambition and achievement. Despite advancing quickly in her personal and professional life, Jinesha realized that success had come with an invisible cost when her mother observed that she no longer carried the same smile she once had. That moment became a turning point, prompting Jinesha to reevaluate what true success and well-being really mean. That realization led Jinesha to discover Bhramari pranayama, or "humming bee breath," a yogic breathing practice that helped her reduce stress, improve focus, and reconnect with herself. Together, Mary and Jinesha explore the importance of internal growth alongside external success, reminding women that sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is pause, realign with what matters most, and care for ourselves while pursuing our goals.   ABOUT JINESHA JAIN:LinkedIn – Jinesha JainInstagram – Jinesha JainTEDx – The Power of Stillness: How One Breath Can Break Burnout ABOUT SWEET BUT FEARLESS: Website - Sweet but Fearless LinkedIn - Sweet but Fearless

Dr Clay and his wife experienced their own infertility journey, an experience that tested them deeply but ultimately brought them closer together.That outcome sparked a defining question: Why do some couples grow closer after infertility or pregnancy loss, while others grow apart?Pursuing this question, Dr. Clay studied more than 1,000 couples navigating infertility and reproductive loss. His findings identified four consistent factors—the Four Pillars of Connection—that predict resilience in relationships facing reproductive trauma.His research has informed clinical practice, been published in leading journals, and is now used by therapists and couples worldwide. To serve local clients, he founded Shiloh Counseling in Ballwin, Missouri, specializing in reproductive grief and relationship counseling.Dr. Clay Brigance, PhD, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor, researcher, and nationally recognized specialist in couple therapy for infertility and reproductive grief. He is the founder and clinical director of Shiloh Counseling, a group practice specializing in relationship therapy for couples navigating infertility, miscarriage, and perinatal loss. He is also the host of the podcast “Love and Infertility”.For over a decade, Dr. Brigance has worked almost exclusively with couples facing reproductive trauma. His clinical and research work has included more than 1,000 individuals and couples experiencing infertility and miscarriage, informing his integrative approach to treatment. He has published in some of the top journals for couples work, including Marriage and Family Therapy, Couple and Relationship Therapy, and The Family Journal, among others. His model draws from interpersonal mindfulness and evidence-based couple therapy approaches, including the Gottman Method and emotion-focused principles, to help couples reduce conflict, process grief, and rebuild emotional connection.Dr. Brigance is also a researcher examining the role of interpersonal mindfulness, stress biomarkers, and relational resilience in couples navigating infertility. His work seeks to better understand how couples can maintain closeness under chronic stress and how therapeutic interventions can foster long-term relational growth following reproductive loss.In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Brigance trains therapists nationally and speaks on the relational impact of infertility and reproductive grief. His work is deeply informed not only by research and clinical experience, but also by his own journey through infertility. As someone who has personally navigated the uncertainty, loss, and strain that reproductive grief can bring to a marriage, he brings a grounded empathy to his work that resonates with both clinicians and couples.Dr. Brigance lives in the St. Louis area with his family. His work is devoted to helping couples move from silent suffering toward connection, clarity, and resilient love in the face of disrupted dreams of parenthood.FIND HIM HERE:WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA: Website: https://www.drclaybrigance.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr_claybrigance/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Shiloh-Counseling-LLC/100090955350701/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/clayton-brigance-phd-lpc-99a4381a4/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dr.ClayBrigance/featured Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/326IpwHCa0diGyJIz4QgZj?si=51d3e3c2e386477a&nd=1&dlsi=1651f7262f41401b

In this powerful episode of The Vibe with Kelly Cardenas, I share one of the greatest lessons my father ever taught me.My Pops was a boxer. Growing up, he would always say:“Boy, all you have to do is get them mad and then they can be taken out.”At first, I thought he was talking about boxing.Years later, I realized he was talking about life.Whether in business, leadership, relationships, faith, or personal growth, anger has a way of stealing our focus and making us vulnerable to poor decisions. The moment we become consumed by frustration, offense, or outrage, we stop seeing clearly.In this episode, we explore Proverbs 2 from a completely different perspective by reading it backwards. Instead of starting with wisdom, we begin by examining what we stand to lose when we ignore it.Imagine losing everything valuable because you were distracted by shiny opportunities, smooth talk, bad influences, or temporary emotions.Proverbs 2 reveals a powerful solution:Store up wisdom.Turn your ear.Apply your heart.Call out for understanding.Search for insight.When we pursue wisdom, we develop knowledge, understanding, discernment, discipline, discretion, and strength. Those qualities ultimately produce the fruit we all desire: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.This episode is for anyone who is:✔ Struggling with anger✔ Looking for greater focus✔ Seeking biblical wisdom✔ Growing as a leader✔ Building stronger relationships✔ Pursuing spiritual growth✔ Wanting more self-control and emotional intelligenceMy father's boxing lesson became one of life's greatest leadership lessons: focus determines your future.The question is simple:What has your attention today?Wisdom or anger?If this message resonates with you, subscribe, share it with someone you care about, and join us as we continue pursuing a better VIBE one Inchstone at a time.#Proverbs2 #BiblicalWisdom #Focus #SelfControl #PersonalGrowth #LeadershipDevelopment #ChristianPodcast #Mindset #FaithBasedLeadership #EmotionalIntelligence #KellyCardenas #TheVibePodcast #Wisdom #SpiritualGrowth #PurposeDrivenLife
