Amy Jo Martin built one of the first social media agencies because Shaq told her to. True story. Seven years later, she shut it down. Not because it failed, but because it worked in a way that locked her into a life she didn't want. Walking away gave her the freedom to decide what to build next. Since then, she's scaled multiple 8-figure companies, written bestselling books, and hosts the Why Not Now? podcast where she's interviewed countless celebrities. This conversation is packed with value for entrepreneurs building at every stage. We also go deep on what building a social media agency in 2009 can teach us about AI today — and what that means if you're building anything right now.

Send us a textIn this New Year's episode, I explore the very real consequences of last year's Past Year Review. Most notably, I decided to retire from a beloved community mental health clinic and launch Park West Integrative Psychiatry — sparked by a desire for creativity, continued learning, and a growing belief in integrative trauma-informed approaches such as EMDR, Internal Family Systems, ketamine-assisted therapy, hypnosis, and breath-based practices.This episode reflects on how intentionally examining meaning and purpose can lead to significant life changes — changes that invite both opportunity and risk, excitement and fear.To close the episode, I share a recording of my retirement speech from the clinic, which turns into an unexpected sing-along and a fitting ritual for marking the end of one chapter and the beginning of another.Chapters0:13 — Nerves and a Big Career Pivot 0:52 — Last Year's Review and 2025 Intentions 1:46 — Leaving a Beloved Community Clinic 2:46 — Why Change Now, and What's Next 3:09 — New Directions in Trauma Treatment and Psychiatry 4:05 — Building Park West Integrative Psychiatry 5:02 — Fear, Complexity, and Finding Balance 6:00 — A Cautious Note on Year-End Reviews 6:20 — Reflections on Podcast Growth 7:06 — Upcoming Group Therapies and Retreats 7:54 — Yellowstone Lessons and Old Friends 8:40 — Gratitude, Global Listeners, and What's Next 9:11 — Retirement Speech and Sing-AlongSign up for the Developing Meaning Substack newsletter for updates and behind-the-scenes reflections.Theme music by The Thrashing Skumz.

In this episode, I open up about the moment I decided to quit my job — not out of weakness, but from strength. After being forced to choose between my family and a five-day office mandate after five years of working remotely, I chose peace. This episode is all about the mindset shift that happens when you stop surviving and start aligning — how I released guilt, reframed what career transitions can look like, and learned to honor my worth beyond a paycheck.I talk about redefining success, rebuilding confidence, and finding that balance between ambition and rest. If you're standing at the edge of change, this is your reminder that walking away isn't giving up — sometimes, it's the most powerful move you can make._If this episode hit home, I'd love for you to stick around.
In today's episode, Keith Kalfas shares the raw, unfiltered story of how he hit rock bottom—working a dead-end landscaping job, broke, exhausted, and stuck—and how one life-changing piece of advice from a millionaire mentor set everything in motion. From dropping his shovel in defeat to starting his first business out of the trunk of his wife's car, Keith reveals what it really takes to break free from fear, rebuild from nothing, and create a life on your own terms. Packed with hard-earned wisdom, gut-punch motivation, and the kind of truth most people are afraid to say out loud, this episode will light a fire under anyone who's ever felt trapped and ready for more. “Action is what brought me back to life. The shovel wasn't just a tool — it was my resurrection.” – Keith Kalfas Topics Covered: Why the “perfect time” never comes (and why that's a good thing) How taking any action beats endless planning and self-doubt The moment Keith realized he was already dead inside — and how that freed him to finally live How humility, faith, and raw grit can build a six-figure business from nothing Key Takeaways Rock Bottom Can Be the Turning PointKeith's story proves that hitting rock bottom isn't failure — it's clarity. When you finally realize that staying where you are hurts more than taking a risk, you stop hesitating. That's when real change begins. For Keith, the moment he dropped the shovel wasn't the end — it was the start of a new life. Pride Keeps You Broke Starting from nothing meant letting go of ego. Pulling weeds, working out of a trunk, knocking on doors — Keith did it all. Once he stopped caring about looking “successful,” he became unstoppable. Pride keeps you stuck; humility gets you paid. You Don't Need Money — You Need Movement Most people wait for the “perfect time” or enough savings to start a business. Keith learned that waiting is the real trap. The millionaire who told him to “get a shovel and start knocking on doors” wasn't being dismissive — he was teaching him that resourcefulness beats resources. Action creates opportunity, not the other way around.

Wait a minute — that's not Todd! Today on Wretched Radio, Fortis Institute Fellow and host of Transformed, Dr. Greg Gifford steps in as guest host to discuss the AI revolution and how it is impacting you. Be sure to check out Dr. Gifford's new book, “Lies My Therapist Told Me”. Details below! Segment 1: • Chatbots now offer therapy, relationship advice, and worldview shaping—are you ready for AI “friends”? • Most people have only 3 close friends; AI companies say they need 15—and they're offering artificial replacements. • Hebrews 5:12—Discernment is a skill Christians must actively develop in an AI-saturated world. Segment 2: • AI “therapists” provide emotional support, but give subjective, humanistic, and often dangerous advice. • Real people need wise pastors and Christian friends, not algorithms affirming their every feeling. • Chatbots reflect the worldview of their programmers—so what belief system is shaping your child? Segment 3: • AI chatbots now advise teens on relationships, mental health, even abortion—without parental oversight. • These algorithms censor biblical views while promoting secular moral narratives. • Christians must recognize: chatbots aren't neutral—they're digital missionaries for a humanistic worldview. Segment 4: • AI should never replace church community for relationships, wisdom, or counsel—it's the wrong tool. • Use AI like Google: for research, not for life decisions or relationships. • Be discerning, not fearful: Christ reigns over algorithms, but your mind and your kids' minds need protection.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!What happens when a spine diagnosis worse than you can imagine forces you to confront your mortality at 29? Oliver Widger went from working a corporate job he hated to sailing solo across the Pacific Ocean with nothing but his cat Phoenix and an unshakeable belief in chasing impossible dreams. After learning he had the spine of someone over 120 years old, Oliver spiraled through three years of partying and self-doubt before accidentally posting a video of himself in his work uniform declaring he "absolutely hated this life" - a mistake that changed everything when it went to all his bosses. Now weeks into a solo voyage from Oregon to Hawaii, Oliver has gained nearly a million followers while proving that the most below-average person can achieve extraordinary things through pure determination. This conversation reveals how facing your mortality can become the greatest gift, why crossing the point of no return is the only way to truly live, and how anyone brave enough to spin a globe and jump can transform their biggest fears into their greatest adventures.Oliver's TikTokOliver's InstagramIn this episode you will learn:How a devastating spine diagnosis became the catalyst for the greatest adventure of Oliver's lifeWhy accidentally posting your breakdown video to your bosses might be the best mistake you ever makeThe simple strategy Oliver used to overcome overwhelming self-doubt: solve only the problem directly in front of youHow to find your purpose by asking yourself one ridiculous question: what crazy thing do you actually want to do?Why becoming completely comfortable with dying poor is the secret to unlimited freedomFor more information go to https://www.lewishowes.com/1786For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Pat Flynn – greatness.lnk.to/1777SCMuniba Mazari – greatness.lnk.to/1684SCMark Manson – greatness.lnk.to/1750SC Get more from Lewis!

Grief doesn't come with a roadmap—and it definitely doesn't fit into a 3-day leave policy. In this episode, Heather sits down with Rebecca Feinglos, founder of Grieve Leave, to talk about what it really looks like to take time to mourn. After losing both of her parents and going through a divorce, Rebecca quit her job in 2021 to dedicate a full year to grieving—and she documented every step. That journey grew into Grieve Leave, a platform and movement that now supports over 25,000 people navigating all kinds of losses. Rebecca shares how we can all give ourselves permission to feel, process, and heal—without apology. This conversation is candid, validating, and a much-needed reminder that there's no wrong way to grieve.

Just buy ONE rental property and watch your life change. Today's guest was working multiple jobs, and a single property purchase allowed her to finally free up her weekends and regain some freedom in her life. The best part? She did it with just around $4,000, then repeated the process again and again, leading her to quit her demanding teaching job in just four years! Today, she's describing exactly how she did it! Deandra McDonald called a lender, expecting to get a preapproval for a home. What actually happened? They told her, “No. Come back when you have more money, better credit, and less debt.” She hustled for two years, saving, working more, and paying off debt. She finally secured a loan for her first property, a two-bedroom townhouse that would change her life forever. Now, she's a financially independent real estate investor, no longer tied to her teaching job, and investing in completely overlooked “rental properties” that produce killer returns and allow her to live job-free. These properties are still largely ignored, but Deandra says it's not too late to take advantage of them and escape your W2 job, too! In This Episode We Cover: How getting just one rental property can lead you to financial freedom in under a decade Why you CAN NOT give up when a lender tells you “no” for a home purchase The overlooked rental properties that you can buy at a MAJOR discount Why Deandra wants to pay off her mortgages instead of scaling to a huge unit count The easiest way to start investing in real estate that requires the least money possible And So Much More!

Alex Preziosi wants to reach financial independence by the age of forty-five, and with several hundred thousand dollars in retirement accounts, brokerage accounts, and savings, she's on pace to do just that. But now, she's thinking about quitting her W2 job. Can she still hit her FI goal? Today's guest has good problems, but problems, nonetheless! Welcome back to the BiggerPockets Money podcast! Since we last spoke with Alex, she has made two major leaps on her journey to financial independence. First, she has taken up house hacking, which pays for most of her mortgage in an expensive area of the US. But that's not all. She has also grown her side hustle as a real estate agent into a full-fledged business, where she now earns more than she does at her W2 job! These moves have only widened the gap between her income and her expenses, and, as a result, she's sitting on an even bigger pile of cash. Now, Alex finds herself at yet another crossroads. Is her W2 holding her back? Should she pursue full-time entrepreneurship while she has such a strong cash position? Stay tuned as we dive into the numbers and try to figure out Alex's best path to FI by forty-five! In This Episode We Cover The best path for Alex to reach financial independence by forty-five When to leave your W2 job and pursue full-time entrepreneurship How to lower (or eliminate!) your housing cost with the house hacking strategy Where to invest a large amount of cash (stock market versus real estate) Tax strategies that could help you save a fortune over your lifetime And So Much More!
