AI isn't coming. It's here. And it's already shaping your kids. While most parents are barely aware of what tools their children are using, classrooms are changing, homework is changing, and the way young people think and create is changing. The question isn't whether AI will be part of your family's future — it's whether you'll lead your home through it intentionally or let it shape your children unchecked. In this episode, we train fathers to think clearly about artificial intelligence: the real dangers, the subtle temptations, and the massive opportunities. What are teachers seeing in classrooms right now? How should Christian parents respond? And how do you disciple your children to use AI as a tool — not a crutch, not a shortcut, and not a master? Technology always discipled someone. The question is: will it disciple your kids… or will you? If you care about raising capable, honest, thinking adults in an AI-saturated world, this episode is for you.

After the US and Israel attacked Iran, Tehran's strategy of asymmetric warfare is clear: it closed the Strait of Hormuz and is attacking energy infrastructure in the Persian Gulf, causing global oil and natural gas prices to skyrocket, crashing stock markets, fueling inflation, and provoking an economic crisis that will hurt the USA and its allies. The conflict has also become a battle of attrition. Iran is using cheap missiles and drones to deplete the defense interceptors of neighboring countries, which will be very difficult to replace, due to deindustrialization, despite Trump administration efforts to boost production. Ben Norton explains.

The musical film The Little Mermaid was released in cinemas on 24 May 2023. This movie highlights the importance of representations in the media. This effect has a name: the Scully Effect. The combination made for an unprecedented representation of women on TV at the time, with audiences far more accustomed to seeing scientists played by white men. The fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics are grouped together under the name of STEM professions. And Dana Scully was one of the first female characters in such a field to feature on prime-time TV, which would inspire a generation of young women to start careers in STEM professions. The phenomenon has become referred to as the Scully Effect. Is there any data to back it up? Why did Scully become such an inspirational figure? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Friendship Breakups, Boundaries vs. Capacity, and Building Communities of Understanding At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana sits down with Annalie Bloomfield, author of Unapologetic: Unshackle Your Shame, Reclaim Your Power, for a refreshingly honest conversation about something nobody warned us about: friendship breakups in our 40s. They dive into why so many women are experiencing major friendship shifts right now, the difference between boundaries (exhausting) and raising your standards (empowering), and why your kids watching you pursue your dreams isn't selfish—it's the opposite of self-sacrifice. Annalie shares her powerful reframe: stop trying to set boundaries and start raising your standards. When you elevate what you're willing to accept for yourself, people naturally rise to meet you there—or they don't, and that's okay too. Dana introduces the concept of "unlimited capacity" versus the scarcity mindset that tells us we can't handle noise, chaos, or complications. They both agree: when you're in the right spaces with the right people, you discover you actually have infinite capacity for connection. From "paint your truck first" (Dana's reminder never to self-sacrifice like her birth father did) to "model, don't martyr" (the mantra every mom entrepreneur needs), this conversation will make you rethink everything you've been told about being a "good mom" and a "good friend." Plus, they explore why micro-communities and "communities of understanding" are the future—because sometimes you need different people for different parts of your life, and that's not only okay, it's healthy.

We've had many conversations on Raise the Line about the challenges of health communication in today's world of information overload, but none of our guests have the kind of expertise Dr. Tesfa Alexander has acquired in a career that has taken him from Madison Avenue to the halls of government and academia. From guiding tobacco education research at the FDA to leading public health initiatives at MITRE, Dr. Alexander has developed a deep understanding of the science and strategy behind effective health communication. “Successful campaigns keep the long game in mind where you want to develop a lasting relationship with your target audience,” he tells host Lindsey Smith. That relationship needs to be built on understanding culture, beliefs, priorities and daily realities, and only then can you develop messaging that will resonate, he explains. Dr. Alexander also believes these relationships can be leveraged to help people sort out facts from misleading or inaccurate claims. “I strongly recommend shifting our focus from combating misinformation head on, and instead working with the communities who we are seeking to serve.” This fascinating look at communication science also covers: How stories drive belief; The importance of working with community partners who are trusted messengers; The power of audience segmentation. Tune in as Dr. Alexander unpacks what it takes to influence beliefs, and ultimately behaviors, in an era defined by misinformation and institutional mistrust.

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Most agency owners don't fail because they're bad at delivery. They fail because they underprice, overcomplicate, and build businesses that trap them instead of freeing them. Today's featured guest unpacks the type of life he envisioned when he set out to start an agency, it took to scale from charging $2,500 a month to closing $45,000/month retainers, surviving a market collapse, and making the counterintuitive decision to split one agency into two. Eli Rubel is the founder of Matter Made, a B2B SaaS marketing agency, and No Boring Design, a premium design studio serving high-growth tech companies. He entered the agency world in 2019 after burning out on the venture-backed SaaS model, despite a previous exit. What drew him to agencies wasn't prestige or scale; it was a desire to take control over his time, lifestyle, income, and location. Agencies, when built correctly, offered the fastest path to freedom without sacrificing ambition. Over the next few years, Eli scaled MatterMade aggressively, navigated a brutal tech downturn, and rebuilt his business with sharper positioning, stronger pricing, and clearer operational boundaries. In this episode, we discussed: Why hiking prices was the right choice early one How and why he decided to create his second agency The reason that shared services failed fast Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio Sponsors and Resources E2M Solutions: Today's episode of the Smart Agency Masterclass is sponsored by E2M Solutions, a web design, and development agency that has provided white-label services for the past 10 years to agencies all over the world.

Why Agencies Beat Venture-Backed SaaS (If You Want Freedom) After years in venture-backed SaaS, chasing growth at all costs, Eli was done with a model he realized was grinding him down. The pressure, the lack of control, and the delayed payoff didn't align with what he actually wanted: family, flexibility, and financial independence. Agencies offered speed to cash and autonomy, which SaaS didn't. Instead of swinging for a hypothetical future exit, Eli chose a business model that paid well now and let him design his life intentionally. It was a shift he made with eyes wide open and clear expectations. The "best" business model depends on what you want your life to look like. For Eli, agencies weren't a step down. They were a strategic upgrade. Hiking His Prices Relying on Capacity and Confidence Eli's agency launched at $2,500 a month, not because that was the "right" price, but because he backed into a simple income goal. Sixteen clients at $2,500 got him to $40,000 a month. On paper, it worked. In reality, it broke fast. As soon as clients started saying "yes" too quickly, Eli knew something was off. The work was heavy, margins were thin, and building a team at that price point wasn't sustainable. Instead of obsessing over competitive pricing, he leaned into price sensitivity testing. Every time the team hit capacity, prices went up. If prospects said no, it didn't matter, they couldn't take on more work anyway. If prospects said yes, it justified hiring and scaling. Over three years, pricing climbed from $2,500 to $45,000 per month. What he learned was that underpricing doesn't just hurt margins. It traps you in constant hiring, delivery stress, and low-leverage work. Raising prices isn't greedy, it's operational discipline. What Actually Changes When You Raise Prices Eli didn't wake up one day and charge $45,000 for the same work he was doing at $2,500. Early on, the offering was vague: "We'll help with demand gen." Strategy was loose, scope was unclear, and the team was tiny. As pricing increased, the delivery model matured into a defined pod structure with paid media, design, strategy, and leadership baked in. However, once his agency hit around $15,000 per month, the services didn't change much after that. What changed was credibility. Case studies stacked up. Results became undeniable. Sales conversations shifted from "this is a great deal" to "this is what it costs to remove risk." Eli was upfront with prospects: MatterMade would be $10,000–$15,000 more per month than competitors, and nothing about the deliverables would look different. The difference was the track record. For buyers who weren't cash-sensitive, that pitch landed hard. They weren't paying for tasks. They were paying for certainty. Why Splitting One Agency into Two Was the Right Move At its peak in 2021, MatterMade was flying high, with $4.2M in EBITDA, tech clients everywhere, and acquisition talks underway. Then the tech market collapsed. Almost overnight, VC-backed clients cut agencies, froze spending, and hunkered down. They went from crushing it to losing nearly $200,000 a month. Eli held on too long, assuming it was temporary, and paid dearly for it. During the restructuring, Eli noticed something interesting: design had become a bottleneck across tech companies. Designers were laid off, but the need for creative work didn't disappear. So he spun up No Boring Design as a separate entity, fast. New brand, new site, launched in a weekend. Within months, it was profitable. Separating the businesses allowed each to have crystal-clear positioning. MatterMade stayed focused on growth marketing. No Boring Design became a premium creative solution for companies stuck in hiring freezes. Trying to keep design tucked inside the marketing agency would have slowed everything down. Separation created speed, clarity, and growth. Why Shared Services Across Agencies Sound Smart and Fail Fast One of Eli's biggest mistakes came after the split. He tried to create a shared management company to handle leadership, recruiting, and operations across multiple agencies. On paper, it looked efficient. In practice, it was chaos. Each agency had subtle but important differences in how it worked. SOPs drifted. Leaders got stretched thin. The "squeaky wheel" agency got attention while others suffered. Eventually, Eli unwound the entire structure. The hard truth: unless your companies operate almost identically, shared services create more friction than savings. Clarity beats efficiency.

Severe vitamin D deficiency is linked to a sharply higher risk of hospitalization for respiratory infections such as bronchitis and pneumonia, turning common illnesses into serious medical events Adults with the lowest vitamin D levels face worse outcomes after pneumonia, including a much higher risk of dying months after hospital discharge, even when initial illness appears mild Higher vitamin D levels are associated with fewer everyday respiratory infections like colds and flu, reducing how often illness disrupts work, sleep, and daily life Vitamin D deficiency is widespread, often silent, and driven by limited sunlight exposure and modern indoor lifestyles, making it a correctable risk factor rather than an unavoidable one Combining systemic immune support from vitamin D with early, localized airway defenses helps stop respiratory infections from gaining momentum before they escalate
When your child calls from school because they forgot their lunch or homework, do you rush to save the day, or let them face the consequences? In this episode, Vanessa and her sisters are tackling the tough question of when saying "no" is actually the more loving choice. They reflect on their own family experience with "parallel work" — being available to help, but only when asked — and explore how small moments of discomfort can build long-term resilience. They also break down a few key factors to consider: safety, whether it's a pattern or a one-time mistake, and how to offer grace without creating entitlement. This episode is all about raising independent kids — and having the courage to step back when it counts.

Clear and transparent communication about price increases helps clients feel informed and respected, reducing discomfort and maintaining trust. 4. Many hairstylists struggle with price increases because of psychological barriers such as fear of rejection and scarcity mindset rather than actual client resistance. 5.

Sustainable pricing allows hairstylists to avoid burnout by working fewer hours while maintaining or increasing overall income. 7. Consistent pricing strategies help hairstylists build stable careers instead of reacting to financial stress with sudden large price increases. 8. Aligning pricing with value ensures hairstylists are compensated fairly for their skill level, experience, and ongoing education.

homestead where you are Stuck Where You Are? Homestead Anyway. | Episode 597 Good morning, this is James from SurvivalPunk.com. Today we're talking about something a lot of you are feeling right now. You want land.You want a homestead.You want chickens, a garden, maybe 40 acres and a creek. But you're in an apartment.Or suburbia.Or stuck in a house you overpaid for. Housing is ridiculous. Rent is ridiculous. Land is ridiculous. So what do you do when you're stuck where you are? You homestead anyway. Stop Wishing You Bought in 2012 There's always that “if only” moment. If only you bought that house in 2012.If only you bought Bitcoin at $8.If only you locked in that 3% mortgage. Here's the truth. Even if you had bought Bitcoin at $8, you probably would've sold it at $100 and felt like a genius. Hindsight makes everything look easy. But it doesn't help you today. What helps you today is controlling spending, increasing income, and stacking cash so you're ready when opportunity shows up. Because deals still happen — but only for people who are ready. Apartment Prepping Is Real Prepping When I first started prepping, I was in an apartment. No balcony. No land. Just walls and limited square footage. You can still do a lot. If you have a balcony, grow something with high return. Don't waste space on novelty crops. Herbs and lettuce mixes are powerful. Sprinkle a lettuce mix in a planter box, cover lightly with soil, water it, and cut what you need for salads. It regrows. High ROI. Easy. Cilantro, if you like it, grows fast and heavy. Zucchini? Great yield. Tomatoes? Honestly… sometimes just buy them. (I've had the worst tomato luck in history.) The point isn't perfection. It's production. Micro-Livestock (Yes, It's a Thing) You're not putting a cow on your balcony. Chickens in an apartment? Probably not realistic. But there are small-scale options. Quail are doable in tight spaces. Eggs and meat from a compact footprint. Rabbits? Possible if managed well. Just don't let the kids name the meat rabbits. Some survivalists even raise meat hamsters. That's not for everyone. I'm not trying to explain that to my daughter anytime soon. But the lesson is this: Constraints don't eliminate options. They force creativity. Suburbia Is Not a Prison If you have even a small yard, you're ahead. You can grow a surprising amount of food on tiny acreage. Look at what micro-homesteaders have done on 1/10th of an acre. Chickens. Vegetables everywhere. Selling surplus. If you're stuck in an HOA? Learn the rules. Push right up to the line. If they push back, remember — there are creative ways to negotiate. Sometimes all it takes is showing that you're willing to be more stubborn than they are. Maximize What You Have Whether it's an apartment, a rental, suburbia, or a house you can't sell without losing money — maximize it. Use vertical storage. Rotate pantry stock. Build skills. Grow what makes sense. Raise what's practical. Increase income. Save aggressively. Because when the right opportunity shows up, you want to move fast. Being stuck doesn't mean being stagnant. It means building quietly. Final Thoughts You don't need 40 acres to start acting like a homesteader. You need discipline. You need creativity. You need to stop waiting for “perfect conditions.” Maximize where you are. Stack cash. Build skills. When the door opens, you'll be ready. This is James from SurvivalPunk.com. DIY to survive.

Consistency in gymnastics can look so calm from the outside. But if you are the parent in the viewing room or in the car after practice, it often feels anything but calm. In this episode, I sit down with Asia Mape, four time Emmy winning sports producer and founder of I Love to Watch You Play, to talk about how parents can support their gymnasts without adding extra pressure.Asia's whole mission comes from one simple line. I love to watch you play. Gymnasts are not asking for more corrections from their parents. They want you to feed them, be normal, clap, and then tell them you love them. That is it. When we actually ask athletes what they want, the answers are simple. The problem is that parents are often caught in fear about levels, scores, and the future.Asia explains why it is so easy for gym parents to slide into over coaching and stress. We spend money on meets, leotards, and privates. We drive long hours to and from the gym. We care deeply about their dreams. That mix can turn into car lectures, sideline tension, and constant talk about results. Over time, that pressure can feed fear, mental blocks, burnout, and even injuries.We also talk about what to do instead. Asia shares how to ask your gymnast what she actually wants from you, how to remember the little girl who just loved to flip on the bed, and how to calm yourself in the stands so you do not make it about you. She also introduces the idea of positive gossip, using your words to quietly spread good news about coaches and kids in the gym, instead of complaints.If you are a gymnastics parent who has ever walked away from a meet thinking, I talked too much or I was too intense, this conversation will help you reset and show up in a way that protects your gymnast's joy and confidence.In this episode, you will hear• Why “I love to watch you play” is often the only message your gymnast really needs• What gymnasts say they actually want from their parents before and after meets• How pressure, money, and fear around levels can hurt your gymnast's mental health• Simple ways for parents to calm down in the viewing room and in the car• How positive gossip can change the mood on your team in a real wayIn this week's episode of the PerformHappy Podcast, Asia Mape shares how small changes in your words and energy can help your gymnast feel safe, supported, and free to love her sport again.Learn exactly what to say and do to guide your athlete through a mental block with my new book "Parenting Through Mental Blocks" Order your copy today: https://a.co/d/g990BurFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/complete_performance/ Join my FaceBook page: https://www.facebook.com/completeperformancecoaching/ Check out my website: https://completeperformancecoaching.com/Write to me!

What happens when a new doctor buys a practice… but the team expects the same automatic raises they've received for the last 20 years? Excitement meets resistance. Vision meets comfort. And compensation conversations get awkward fast. In this episode of Dental Drill Bits, Dana and Sandy unpack the tension between loyalty and leadership — and why raises must be tied to increased value, not just time served. This conversation isn't about dismissing long-term employees. Stability matters. Commitment matters. Institutional knowledge matters. But alignment matters more. You'll learn how to: • Reset compensation expectations during a practice transition • Communicate clearly about raises before review season hits • Understand the difference between a raise and a bonus • Use staff overhead percentages to create a sustainable quarterly bonus model • Identify whether you're rewarding trajectory or tenure • Lead growth without funding stagnation Sandy walks through a practical bonus structure based on collections — not production — using a benchmark staff overhead percentage (typically 25–27%). When overhead comes in under target, the margin becomes a shared team reward. Transparent. Measurable. Sustainable. You'll also hear a powerful reminder: Raises are not a reward for time served. They are a reward for increased value. If you don't define value, your team will define it for you. Clarity protects your culture. Clarity protects your profitability. Clarity protects your relationships. Special thanks to our sponsors:
