Episode 3351: Philip Taylor explains how the Roth IRA offers powerful tax advantages for retirement savers, especially those who want more flexibility, investment control, and tax-free withdrawals. Unlike traditional accounts, Roth contributions are made with after-tax dollars, meaning you can withdraw both your contributions and earnings tax-free in retirement, making it a smart option for many earners seeking long-term growth and financial security. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://ptmoney.com/what-is-a-roth-ira-and-how-does-it-work/ Quotes to ponder: "A Roth IRA is taxed just the opposite of the Traditional IRA and 401K."

Christy Albright + Clarissa Sorensen Unruh share about teaching, learning, and the lessons of grief on episode 596 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode Take two deep breaths. -Clarissa Sorensen Unruh None of the books that I researched on grief actually defined grief. It's like they just assumed you knew what it was because it's such a universal experience, but it's not universally experienced by everybody in the same way. -Christy Albright Anticipatory grief is when you know something is coming and you're already grieving that situation. -Christy Albright People assume that grief gets smaller, and actually we grow around it. -Clarissa Sorensen Unruh The big griefs in my life stay forever. -Christy Albright Resources Bonni fact checks her anecdote about birds Fractals: Is Hasan Smarter than a 13-year-old Math Genius Peter Felten: Can We Teach Curiosity?

We continue our sixth week of our 7-week series of quotes based on themes from my book, "Senior Salute," with five more quotes on the theme of "Teamwork."No matter what you do or where you go in life after your experience in sports, chances are that you will always be part of some kind of team. The concepts of a team will be involved in so many different aspects of your life - work, sports, clubs, church, families - to name a few. The camaraderie of a team will be something you will continue to experience long after you are done playing sports. You will always be part of groups that are bigger than just yourself. While individual success and accolades are fun and exciting, there is nothing quite like being part of a successful team. Enjoy all of the team experiences you are fortunate enough to be a part of now and in your future. I wrote "Senior Salute" as a follow-up to my most popular book ever, "Inspiration for the Graduate." Both are gift books for coaches or parents to give to their senior athletes. "Inspiration for the Graduate" makes for a great graduation gift, and "Senior Salute" is a great gift to give on Senior Night or at the End-of-Season Banquet. Each book is filled with quotes based on various Team Themes that, hopefully, the coaches have talked with and worked on with their teams at some point in the season.Also, please consider becoming a supporter of the show.

Episode 3804: Allison Carmen explores how embracing the idea of "maybe" can help us shift from fear-based beliefs to a state of openness and eventual faith. Through her story of Joe, a man gripped by job insecurity, she shows how the practice of “maybe” can ease anxiety, reframe uncertainty, and foster emotional resilience in uncertain times. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://www.allisoncarmen.com/having-faith-in-maybe-2/ Quotes to ponder: "Belief clings, faith lets go." "Beliefs try to make a known out of the unknown. They make presumptions about what is yet to come, how it will be, what it will mean, and how it will affect us." "'Maybe' creates a kind of cognitive faith that can help us get us through an unexpected situation."

Instead of chasing peak performance, Cramer advocates for avoiding disaster, building resilience, and prioritizing consistency, especially when stress can derail even the best-laid plans. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://bestinterest.blog/room-for-error/ Quotes to ponder: "In investing and in life, prioritize avoidance of terrible situations."

What if the biggest breakthroughs in your life and marriage don't happen overnight—but gradually, then suddenly? In this episode, we sit down with bestselling author and pastor Mark Batterson to talk about his new book Gradually, Then Suddenly and how God's long-game approach shapes everything from our dreams to our relationships. Mark unpacks what it means to play the long game in faith, how to take every thought captive to Christ, and why success—whether in ministry or marriage—always grows at the "speed of a seed." We'll also explore how small, intentional choices today can create generational impact tomorrow. If you've ever felt like growth is too slow or that your prayers are taking too long to be answered, this conversation will remind you that God is always working—gradually, then suddenly.   Episode Takeaways: Instead of focusing on how long something takes, we're invited to stay faithful to His good, pleasing, and perfect will—even when the outcome isn't immediate. Success isn't about avoiding failure—it's about learning to manage it. We don't need to see the whole plan to take the first step. Quotes from Today's Episode: "Whatever it is God's called you to do, it's probably going to take longer than you like and be harder than you hope for." "We overestimate what we can do in a year or two, but we underestimate what God can do in 10 or 20 or 30." "The cure for the fear of failure is not success. It's failure in small enough doses that you build up an immunity to it." Success is usually well-managed failure. It's not about pinpointing dates. It's about being faithful to his good pleasing and perfect will. Whatever it is God is calling you to do is probably going to take longer than you like and be harder than you hoped for. Good ideas are good but God ideas change the course of history. By faith you take the first step, even if God hasn't revealed the second step. You aren't going to be married very long without some curveballs.    Couples Conversation Starters:  How can we support each other in staying patient and faithful when God's timing feels slower than we hoped in our marriage or personal goals? What are some "small failures" we've experienced together, and how can we use them to grow stronger as a couple rather than letting them discourage us? Is there a step of faith—big or small—that God might be calling us to take together, even if we don't see the full path yet? Mentioned in this Episode: Learn more about Mark Batterson and connect with him on socials. Mark Batterson's new book is out! Purchase it HERE! We gathered all 685 answers, organized them into the top 10 themes, and added 1 practical step for each theme so husbands can better meet their wife's needs.

Episode 3185: Roger Lawson shows how a pivotal fight forced Bruce Lee to confront his physical and philosophical limitations, sparking the creation of Jeet Kune Do. He then contrasts this awakening with a call for modern movement, urging us to identify and overcome our own “weakest links,” whether in fitness, lifestyle, or daily habits, before they quietly shape our lives for the worse. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://roglawfitness.com/bruce-lee-moment⁠ & https://roglawfitness.com/move-more-die-less/ Quotes to ponder: "You just have to take one small step in a direction that isn't toward your couch." "We've all heard that we are only as strong as our weakest link, but how many of us actually address it?" "As long as you have at least one functioning limb, there are always options for movement, even during a busy work schedule."

️ The Baller Lifestyle Podcast – Episode 600 Hosts: Brian Beckner & Ed DalyDuration: ~1 hour 15 minutesSupport the show: patreon.com/theballerlifestyle Episode 600: “Six Hundred and Still Ballin'” The boys celebrate 600 episodes of The Baller Lifestyle Podcast — twelve years of dumb jokes, hard truths, and heartfelt community moments. Brian and Ed reflect on their long-running friendship, the wild ride of podcasting, and the listeners who've made it all worthwhile. They kick things off with love for their audience and special shoutouts to longtime listener David Bray, then dive headfirst into their signature mix of dark humor, sports takes, RIPs, and ridiculousness. RIP Segment Another week, another grim roundup: Marshawn Neyland – Promising Cowboys defensive end, gone too soon. Lenny Wilkens – NBA Hall of Famer, player, and coach, passes at 88. Paul Tagliabue – Former NFL commissioner; Brian thought he'd been dead for decades. Young Bleed – No Limit rapper dies at 51 of a brain aneurysm (yes, Young Bleed). Charles Coste – 101-year-old French Olympic cyclist; the guys debate flopping dicks and old bike seats. “Human Barbie” Influencer – Yet another social media casualty. Dick Cheney – Finally gone; Ed and Brian unload a well-earned verbal obituary for the war criminal of war criminals. Sports Section Antonio Brown arrested (again) — this time for attempted murder. Amon-Ra St. Brown gets punched after doing the Trump dance — the guys break down his “fake” saint name and his dad's NFL eugenics project. Guardians Pitchers Scandal: Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz caught “pitch-fixing” for a $12k bet despite multimillion contracts. Kickers Are Too Good: Listener email sparks a rant about banning kickers and making goalposts narrower. BYU vs. Texas Tech: Listeners report signs reading “Alcoholics vs. Soakers.” The guys are delighted. Listener Mail Super Lee congratulates the show on 600 episodes. Drew in Phoenix demands the NFL “ban the kicker.” Matthew Richards checks in from Lubbock with BYU/Tech game tales. All Text No Tweet asks about Trump getting booed at a Commanders game. Super Lee surprises Brian & Ed with a cameo from Emmanuel Lewis (Webster!), who requests a Daily's Choice: Webster vs. Ricky Schroeder. The guys hilariously deliver. Not Sports Segment Father and son killed by giant hornets while ziplining in Laos — the guys roast the idea of “adventure tourism.” 79-year-old British millionaire seeks a “good breeder” on Tinder. The hosts volunteer in horrifying detail. The Louvre Robbery: Hot French thieves, a lift, and the world's dumbest password — “Louvre.” Brian recalls a wild art theft documentary where retirees lived with a $160M stolen painting behind a door. Quotes of the Week “If you call yourself Young Bleed, you're bleeding out one way or another.”“Dick Cheney should be mentioned in the same breath as Pol Pot — except with worse aim.”“If you're 51, you're not ‘Young' anything. You're Middle-Aged Hemorrhage.”“Fifty rooms? That's too many rooms. Just give me the money and the lube.” ️ Community & Closing Brian thanks Ed for twelve years of showing up and the listeners for sticking around through six hundred episodes of nonsense, insight, and friendship. The show wraps with a toast to the community and to David Bray — “We love you, man.” Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher | PatreonFollow: @ballerlifestylepodcastEmail: mailbag@theballerlifestyle.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Episode 2795: Elana Miller reflects with clarity and candor on what a life-threatening illness taught her about the human impulse to help, sometimes sincerely, other times selfishly. Through the lens of her cancer journey and psychiatric training, she exposes the subtle ways people mask discomfort, ego, and fear as generosity, offering a powerful lesson in authentic empathy and presence. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://zenpsychiatry.com/on-human-nature/ Quotes to ponder: "The truest kind of generosity, which is offered with no concern for the ego of the person doing the offering, and total love for the person to whom they are offering something, is touching, and beautiful, and rare." "Everything happens for a reason" or, even worse, "God only gives us what we can carry," "Perhaps there isn't a greater force in the universe ensuring that bad things only happen to people who deserve them. Perhaps life isn't fair."

Frank and Jonathan kick off with announcements and a fun question of the week about sequels that outshine the originals. News hits include The Mummy's return with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, the 2029 plan for K-Pop Demon Hunters, and Grand Theft Auto VI shifting to November 19, 2026. Frank reviews Predator: Badlands and explains why it works for both Predator fans and sci-fi diehards. Then Ken Maney of the ODPH joins for a thoughtful conversation about podcasting in 2025, community, video vs audio, and practical advice for new and veteran creators. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome, intros, and what's ahead 00:13 Announcements: BlizzCon dates, SF Fan Expo plans, and Patreon holiday care packages 01:50 Question of the Week: Sequels better than the originals 06:24 News: The Mummy returns with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz 14:18 K-Pop Demon Hunters sequel targeting 2029, expectations and story threads 20:11 GTA 6 moves to November 19, 2026 and what that means for the industry 26:58 Review: Predator: Badlands (world-building, effects, performances, and that ending) 40:19 Interview: Ken Maney (ODPH) on origin stories, community, and staying power 1:21:00 Wrap up and ways to support Key Takeaways Sequels can outpace originals when they sharpen tone and character focus. The Mummy's return works best if it leans into family-friendly adventure with practical set pieces. K-Pop Demon Hunters has time to scale up music collabs and world-building, even with a long runway. GTA 6's delay is a net positive if it delivers a polished launch and avoids crowding the release calendar. Predator: Badlands thrives on a tight premise, clear character intent, and a mix of practical work with CG. Podcasting longevity comes from community, consistency, and knowing your "why," not from chasing viral tricks. Video helps some shows, but strong content and an audio-first workflow still carry a lot of weight. New creators should focus on making the best episode they can today, then repeat. Veterans should reconnect with their original purpose to beat burnout. Quotes "Be comfortable being uncomfortable. If you want to grow, you have to push yourself." — Ken Maney "Everybody thinks they're a content creator until it's time to create content." — Ken Maney "Don't worry about everybody else. Worry about your own house." — Ken Maney "Predator: Badlands works because the intent is simple. Kill the monster. The rest builds from there." — Frank "Delay GTA 6 if it means a cleaner launch. One bad week can sink a decade of goodwill." — Frank Call to Action If you enjoyed this episode, follow and subscribe, leave a quick rating, and drop a review.

In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast, Jerry Kennedy dives into one of the biggest traps chiropractors fall into — chasing vanity stats. From gross income to new patient counts to website traffic, these numbers can look impressive on the surface but often lack the context that actually matters. Jerry shares hard-earned wisdom on how to separate meaningful metrics from meaningless ones, how to keep your ego in check, and how to focus on the numbers that truly move your practice forward. 1. What Are Vanity Stats? Jerry explains that vanity stats are numbers that sound impressive but don't actually reflect real success. These include: Gross income without expenses New patient counts without retention Website traffic without conversions Rankings without relevance Without proper context, these stats can create false confidence or unnecessary frustration. 2. Why Vanity Metrics Are Dangerous Vanity stats are seductive because they make chiropractors feel successful, but they can easily distort reality. Jerry warns that: People exaggerate or manipulate their numbers online. Gross income often hides massive overhead. Social media and professional circles amplify unrealistic comparisons. He shares a story about a chiropractor friend who appeared far more successful based on gross revenue but actually took home only a little more than Jerry — at the cost of massive stress and a complicated business. 3. The Comparison Trap Jerry compares vanity metrics to social media highlights — people showing their best moments and hiding the rest. Chiropractors often compare their unfiltered reality to someone else's filtered image of success, which leads to unnecessary frustration and burnout. He reminds listeners that success isn't defined by looking impressive — it's defined by how well your practice serves you, your patients, and your life. 4. Examples of Vanity Stats in Chiropractic Jerry gives real-world examples of chiropractic vanity stats and how they can mislead: Gross income: Without understanding expenses, it's meaningless. New patients per month: If retention is low, this stat is hollow. Patient visits per week: A high number doesn't mean success if fees are unsustainably low. Website traffic or Google ranking: Traffic that doesn't bring in new patients is worthless. He even shares how his own site once ranked for "ring dinger" searches — great traffic, but totally irrelevant for his business. 5. What Metrics Actually Matter Jerry offers practical guidance for what chiropractors should really focus on: Net income: What you actually take home. Expenses: Keep them tight; most chiropractors overspend. New patient origin: Know where people are finding you. New patient quality: Focus on patients who are a good fit for your care. Retention: Track how long patients stay and how often they return. These are the metrics that indicate the health and sustainability of your practice. 6. Jerry's Tips for Avoiding the Vanity Trap Don't believe every number you hear — most lack context or honesty. Don't brag about your stats — it feeds your ego but helps no one. Share stats only in a teaching environment — context is what makes them valuable. Focus on meaningful growth — not looking impressive to others. Keep your expectations grounded — unrealistic goals only cause frustration. Key Takeaway Vanity stats might look good on paper, but they won't make your practice better or your life easier. Focus on metrics that actually impact your income, your stress level, and your ability to serve patients well. Quotes to Remember "Gross income out of context doesn't mean anything." "You're comparing your real life to someone else's highlight reel — and you can't win that." "Your ego is not your friend." "Know your stats, focus on the ones that actually matter."

Quotes for Tue, 11 Nov 2025 in Morse Code at 20 words per minute.

Pat Foreman was 18 years old when someone told him he'd never be able to afford a CNC machine.So he quit. Walked out. Called a sales guy on his way home. Three days later, he had a mill sitting in his parents' garage.No family shop. No machining background. Parents were teachers. He learned everything from YouTube and Google.In this episode, Pat walks us through the whole story: stumbling into a machining class that turned out to be a jail diversion program, calling 1-800-HAAS with $300 to his name, and setting up his first mill in his parents' garage. He talks about the day he crashed a probe while drinking at work during COVID (yeah, really), and how that mistake turned into the ProbeHalo—a product that sold 400 units in two hours and has now moved over 10,000 pieces.We get into the real stuff: running a shop from home, never answering the phone, not knowing G-code, not owning a lathe, and still making it work. Pat's brutally honest about the yayhoo jobs he used to take, why he doesn't care if his machines sit idle, and how he's built a business around having free time instead of chasing growth.This one's for anyone who's thought about going out on their own, anyone who's been told they can't do it, or anyone who just wants to hear how someone figured it out without following the traditional path.

In this episode, we continue our series on the Garden of Our Hearts and talk about the cultivation of beauty. Beauty has the power to transform, heal, and lift us into communion with God, but it must be cultivated with care and intention. We discuss what it means to co-create with God, slow down and savor little moments, and rediscover beauty in the people closest to us. Even when the world around us feels barren or artificial, the Lord invites us to see beauty with new eyes and let the Holy Spirit reveal His presence in unexpected ways.   Heather's One Thing - The Catechism of the Catholic Church designed by Every Sacred Sunday Heather's Other One Thing - I Am Held by Pat Barrett Sister Miriam's One Thing - The Carmelite Monks' New Monastery in Wyoming Michelle's One Thing - Word on Fire's Evangelization and Culture Journal - Issue 25 on Beauty Michelle's Other One Thing - The Story of All Stories: A Story Bible for Young Catholics by Emily Stimpson Chapman   Other Resources Mentioned:  Passion and Purpose Podcast Episode 5 with Jon Tyson and Louie Giglio Word on Fire and Ascension will publish the new English edition of the Liturgy of the Hours   Journal Questions: How am I uniquely gifted at cultivating beauty? When have you had an experience with beauty that transformed your heart? What lies and limitations do I believe about my own creativity? How does God want to play with me in the dirt this week? In what ways am I too busy for creativity and beauty? What beauty does the Lord want to show you - both within you and outside of you?   Discussion Questions: Have you come across AI art recently? How did you respond to it? In what ways have you limited your own creativity? Who or what inspires you to be more creative? How will you cultivate beauty and express creativity in your life?   Quotes to Ponder:  "Every expression of true beauty can thus be acknowledged as a path leading to an encounter with the Lord Jesus."  -Pope Francis    "We must wonder! We must create an environment of wonder! We must create a climate of wonder! This task is closest to the family. . . . Wonder is needed so that beauty might enter into human life, into society and the nation. This beauty is the foundation and the creative moment of the culture. It is impossible to create culture by administrative means. These means can only destroy it. . . . We need to marvel at everything that is found in man." (Saint Pope John Paul II)   Scripture for Lectio: "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things."

Episode 3348: Leif challenges the conventional link between income and happiness by highlighting how mindful spending and intentional living can lead to greater freedom, satisfaction, and emotional well-being. Drawing on research, personal experience, and the FIRE movement, he illustrates how spending less, while counterintuitive in a consumer-driven culture, can actually unlock more time, autonomy, and joy. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.physicianonfire.com/spend-less-live-more/ Quotes to ponder: "High income buys life satisfaction but not happiness." "The things you own end up owning you. It's only after you lose everything that you're free to do anything." "A dollar spent is a dollar not saved or invested."

Dr. Akil Taher, MD, is a physician, author, and septuagenarian athlete who transformed his life after undergoing open heart surgery at age 61. Previously living with chronic illness, unhealthy habits, and a challenging family history of heart disease, he transitioned from a sedentary lifestyle to running marathons, climbing mountains, and embracing a whole food, plant-based diet. In this episode of the Marketer of the Day Podcast, Dr. Taher shares insights from his book, Open Heart: The Transformational Journey of a Doctor Who, After Bypass Surgery at 61, Ran Marathons and Climbed Mountains. He discusses the importance of nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress management, and social connections for a vibrant, purposeful life. Dr. Taher outlines the six pillars of lifestyle medicine and offers practical advice for adopting a plant-based diet, exercising regularly, and managing stress. He highlights that age is not a barrier to change and promotes patient and consistent development of supportive relationships, physical and mental activity, and sustainable lifestyle changes. Quotes: ''Adversity can be your worst enemy or your best friend. After my surgery, it became my best friend and transformed me.” “Let's not have perfection be the enemy of good. Start slow—be a flexitarian and make small, sustainable changes.” “Age is not a limiting factor. Many people change their lives entirely even at 70, 80, or 90 years old.” Resources: Connect with Dr. Akil Taher on LinkedIn Follow Dr. Akil Taher on Facebook Life isn't over after a bypass surgery Open Heart: The Transformational Journey of a Doctor Who, After Bypass Surgery at 61, Ran Marathons and Climbed Mountains on Amazon

We have all been there. The job that didn't happen, the plan that fell apart, the moment that left you wondering, what now? In this episode, Dr. Bray explores what happens in your brain and body when life doesn't go as planned, and why learning to let go, reframe, and keep moving forward is one of the most powerful things you can do for your mental health and resilience. You will learn why holding onto anger, regret, or comparison quietly drains your brain's energy, how your nervous system responds to disappointment, and how small mindset shifts can rewire your focus and restore clarity. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and real-life stories of growth, Dr. Bray shares why everyone's path looks different and why comparing your journey to someone else's will always leave you behind. If you have been feeling stuck, disappointed, or worn down, this episode will remind you that nothing is wasted. Your brain is still learning, adapting, and building strength with every challenge you face. Sometimes, the things that do not work out are exactly what lead you where you are meant to go. Quotes by Dr. Bray "Resilience isn't about bouncing back. It's about becoming someone new because of what you've been through." "Strength doesn't come from holding on. It comes from releasing what no longer serves you." "Forgiveness and acceptance aren't fluffy emotional ideas — they're biological resets for your brain."
