My wife and I were staying in this apartment at the Jersey shore for a weekend. We were going to save some money by cooking for ourselves. But, there was one small problem with the kitchen. We discovered it the first morning. We had this English muffin in the toaster. Suddenly I hear this high-pitched alarm in the kitchen. I went running out there. The smoke detector had gone off. Problem: There was no smoke, just a little English muffin cooking. It was just a little heat coming from across the room from the toaster. Oh, we got to hear that smoke alarm again several times while we were there. It was a very sensitive alarm. And the problem is because it would go off so often, guess what? Pretty soon you don't take it seriously any more. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about “Parents Afraid.” Our word for today from the Word of God is a great verse for anyone, but especially for parents in times like these. 2 Timothy 1:7 - “God did not give us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power and love and a sound mind.” You're not supposed to have a spirit of fear. See, fear-based decisions usually don't take us down the right road. Fear-based parenting usually backfires. If you're a parent today, there are a lot of things you could be afraid of for your children. They could be physically hurt, they could be spiritually hurt, or they can be infected by the moral pollution that's everywhere. They could lose their faith, they could rebel, or they could mess up sexually. Our kids can choose the wrong friends; they can make a romantic mistake. They can believe a sophisticated lie. Raising children in this kind of world, you could find yourself letting fear take over; especially if you see a warning sign in your son or daughter. But God hasn't given us a spirit of fear. He wants you to parent with a spirit of power and love and a sound mind. He wants you to parent positively, not with criticism and nagging and worrying and put downs or being overly possessive or protective. Those approaches usually help produce the very rebellion we were afraid of. When we parent out of fear, our alarm keeps going off all the time. Every incident, every negative comment from our child becomes a battleground. Maybe you see signs that you're becoming like that smoke detector; you're going off on everything. If you do, eventually you won't be taken seriously anymore, probably at just the point in your child's life when you really need to be taken seriously. You just can't afford to have your son or daughter saying, “The alarm, again?” Parents whose fear or negativism or perfectionism makes them sound off all the time tend to create rebels, because we create an immunity to a parental voice. And a child who is immune to mom or dad's voice is like an unguided missile. If you sense that your alarm's been going off too often, it's time to turn that around. It begins with an apology - asking your child to forgive you because of the nagging and the negative. Be honest with them about some of your fears for them. Tell them how much you believe in their potential and in their gifts and that you hate anything that might keep them from becoming all they were created to be. Be willing to be vulnerable with them. Be willing to need forgiving. You might be amazed how many walls that can bring down. Then choose your battlegrounds. Learn to analyze a conflict or a concern, and put them in one of two categories: major battle or minor battle. And then save your ammunition for the battles that really matter. Bite your tongue on the others. Before you talk to your child, talk to God about your child. Bring your fear and your anger and your frustration to God so you don't always have to dump it on your son or daughter. Give God time to work it out, and then jump in only as He prompts you to. Because of Christ in your life, you can parent with confidence, with authority and restraint. And then when your parent alarm goes off, your kids will respond. Just wait until there's real smoke from a real fire.

What if feeling better didn't require another routine, another habit, or one more thing on your list, but simply stepping outside?   In this episode, Whitney sits down with Linda Åkeson McGurk to talk about friluftsliv, the Scandinavian philosophy of open-air living, and why it feels so needed right now. This conversation goes way beyond hiking and outdoor adventures. It's about getting outside in small, everyday ways, slowing down a little, and remembering that we don't have to book a wilderness adventure to enjoy nature. Whitney and Linda talk about why so many of us feel overstimulated, disconnected and tired, and how something as simple as fresh air, noticing the weather, or taking a walk can shift the way we feel.   They also talk honestly about motherhood, busy schedules, screen time, work culture, and the pressure to always be doing more. You'll walk away with practical ideas you can actually try, whether you live in a city, have little kids, or haven't intentionally spent time outside in a long time.   If you've been craving more breathing room, more presence, or just a reminder that life doesn't always have to feel so rushed, this one's for you.   Here's what you can look forward to in this episode: What friluftsliv is and why Scandinavians see nature as part of everyday life Why being outside doesn't have to mean big hikes or perfect weather How nature can help with stress, creativity, and feeling more grounded The pressure of modern life, motherhood, and always being "on" Easy ways to bring more outdoor time into your week Why disconnecting from screens can feel surprisingly good Raising kids who feel connected to nature The idea that doing less can sometimes give us more Reflection question to ponder:  Is this how I want to spend my time? Is this important? Or is there something else that I could be doing instead?   Learn more about 1:1 coaching with Whitney - book a 15-minute Spark Session   Connect with Whitney: Instagram l Website l 5 Days to Less Stress, More Satisfaction l Tend to Your Soul Toolkit l 10 Soulful Journaling Prompts | Electric Ideas Podcast   Connect with Linda: Instagram | Website | Book | Substack

Recorded live before an audience at Sunken Harbor Club in Brooklyn.Why This Episode MattersGage & Tollner's revival is more than a preservation story. St. John Frizell and Garrett Richard show how historic restaurants and classic cocktails can be restored, reinterpreted, and made relevant. The ConversationThe live conversation opens with Mark admitting that it took him several meetings to realize writer St. John Frizell and bartender “Sinjin” Frizell were the same person. Francis recalls Garrett recognizing The Restaurant Guys at Tales of the Cocktail, back when being recognized in public was still a notable event.From there, St. John tells the improbable story of finding Gage & Tollner's landmarked interior beneath the remains of a TGI Fridays, an Arby's, and a makeshift mall. He explains how 450 crowdfunding investors helped revive the historic Brooklyn oyster and chophouse and how the restaurant was preparing to open when COVID closed New York.Garrett traces Sunken Harbor Club from a weekly pop-up to one of the country's most distinctive cocktail bars. He explores forgotten tropical formats, historic steakhouse drinks, the challenge of creating serious non-alcoholic cocktails, and the timelessness of the Martini. The conversation also reaches Charles H. Baker Jr., his amazing life and the idea that a great drink can be built as much on story and context as on the recipe itself.Timestamps00:00 Live from Sunken Harbor Club02:00 St. John, Sinjin and a James Bond pronunciation lesson04:00 Garrett's first encounter with The Restaurant Guys05:30 The opening cocktails and Sunken Harbor's menu philosophy08:30 Gage & Tollner prepares to open as COVID closes New York11:00 How the Sunken Harbor Club began as a weekly pop-up14:00 Finding Gage & Tollner behind false walls17:00 Raising $450,000 from 450 crowdfunding investors20:00 Reconstructing forgotten cocktails and the Cross Current25:30 Historic steakhouse drinks meet tropical cocktails30:30 Why serious non-alcoholic cocktails are so difficult42:00 Martinis, Charles H.

Welcome back to the Embodied Baddie Podcast! In this week's episode, I'm joined by my friend Deb for a candid conversation about dating, self-worth, healing old wounds, and what happens when you finally decide you're no longer available for less than you deserve.Deb and I first connected online years ago, but our friendship deepened during a trip to Napa when she was navigating a difficult breakup and questioning the kinds of relationships she had been accepting. What followed was a powerful journey of raising her standards, healing old patterns, and learning to stop seeking validation from people who were never capable of giving her what she truly wanted.This conversation feels less like an interview and more like two girlfriends sitting down with a glass of wine and talking about the lessons that changed everything.In This Episode We Discuss:How ambitious women often settle for less than they deserve in relationshipsThe difference between wanting a relationship and needing validationWhy self-worth isn't something you think—it's something you embodyThe hidden patterns that keep us choosing unavailable or low-effort partnersHow childhood wounds can quietly influence our dating decisionsThe importance of communicating needs and expectations clearlyWhy raising your standards isn't selfish—it's necessaryLearning to trust yourself instead of chasing approvalHow healing emotional wounds creates space for healthier relationshipsThe difference between knowing your worth and actually living like you know your worthA Few Powerful Truths From This Conversation:Just because someone is interested in you doesn't mean they're right for you.Attention and effort are not the same thing.Being independent doesn't make you immune to wanting love, connection, and partnership.Standards aren't walls—they're filters.You don't have to earn healthy love.The Biggest Takeaway:One of the most powerful shifts Deb experienced wasn't finding the right relationship—it was becoming the version of herself who no longer accepted the wrong ones.When you stop settling, everything changes.Not because the dating pool changes.Because you do.Connect With Us:If this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend who needs the reminder that they are allowed to want more.And if you're doing the work of raising your standards, healing old wounds, and creating a life that feels as good as it looks, come join us inside the Embodied Baddie community.Until next time, stay audacious, stay embodied, and never settle for crumbs when you're meant for the whole damn meal.

What if the feelings you've been most afraid to feel are the exact ones keeping you from the pleasure, the magic, and the life you most desire? In this episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily Fletcher sits down with Dr. Laura Berman, PhD scientist, sex and relationship therapist of 30 years, and author of 10 books including Sex Magic and her newest, Crying Out Loud: A Path Through Grief into Life Reimagined. Dr. Berman's story is one of the most remarkable Emily has ever shared on this show. After losing her mother to breast cancer and developing the same cancer in the same breast within a year, Laura recognized the connection between unexpressed grief and physical illness. Then, five years ago, her 16-year-old son Sammy was killed by an accidental fentanyl poisoning sent to him through Snapchat. What happened next, a week alone in the Redwoods, a voice at the beach, and a complete surrender into the pain, led to the discovery that changed everything: there is a bottom. It takes about three minutes. And going all the way into grief does not take you under. It sets you free. This conversation directly illuminates what Emily teaches inside Ziva Magic: all feelings come through the same channel. When you suppress grief and rage, you suppress pleasure and ecstasy. The willingness to stretch your emotional capacity is the same thing as stretching your capacity for magic. In this episode, they explore: – Why all feelings come through the same channel, and what you lose when you block the ones that hurt – The science of emotional inflammation and its direct connection to physical illness – Quantum entanglement and why the people closest to you energetically match your state in real time – The "home frequency" of coherence, how to recognize it, lose it, and return to it – Why going all the way into grief does not break you, and what waits on the other side – How Dr. Berman continued a relationship with her son across the frequency divide after his death – What spiritually bypassing grief actually costs us, and what embodied alchemy looks like instead – The grief retreat model she built for other parents and the Grief Healing Collective she runs today – Why one person holding a higher frequency counteracts 70,000 people in darkness Key Moments: 00:00 – All feelings through the same channel: the conversation begins 01:53 – Introducing Dr. Laura Berman 04:10 – From 3D relationship work to quantum and metaphysical 07:37 – Her mother's death, breast cancer, and the reawakening 09:13 – Quantum entanglement and real-time energetic matching 12:51 – Home frequency: what it is and how to return 19:13 – Reality expands and collapses based on state of consciousness 24:25 – Why we resist grief 29:06 – The science of emotional capacity and the single channel 31:07 – Sammy's death and what came next 33:23 – The voice: "Do you want to live or die?" 35:29 – Into the Redwoods: discovering there is a bottom 39:28 – Raising her frequency to meet her son in the middle 43:16 – Writing the book and building the retreat model 48:37 – The fear of opening a bottomless pit 51:15 – There is a bottom. Three minutes. You will not lose yourself. 54:45 – Why we apologize for crying and what Crying Out Loud reclaims 01:01:40 – One person holding higher frequency counteracts 70,000 01:04:30 – Where to find Laura and how to get the book About Dr. Laura Berman Dr. Laura Berman is a PhD scientist, sex and relationship therapist, researcher, and author of 10 books. Her newest, Crying Out Loud: A Path Through Grief into Life Reimagined, is available for pre-order now and releases October 20. She runs the Grief Healing Collective and grief retreats for parents, and her free resources are available at healwithlaurea.com. Social Media: @drlauraberman and @griefhealingcollective for grief healing related content Pre-Order Dr. Laura's book: Crying Out Loud If this conversation moved you, the work of feeling it to heal it, of alchemizing emotion into fuel rather than suppressing it into static, is what's opening this summer at Ziva.

Learning how to write a sources sought response could be the single highest-leverage move you make in federal contracting this year. In this episode, Ryan Atencio walks through a real sources sought response he just submitted, line by line, showing exactly how to nudge a solicitation's set-aside, evaluation criteria, and contract vehicle before it ever goes live. If you've ever felt like the government writes RFPs for someone else and you're just hoping to qualify, this episode shows you how to flip that. Key discussion points from this episode include: How shaping a sources sought response early can cut out 80% of your competition before the solicitation is even released Why nudging a total small business set-aside toward SDVOSB, WOSB, or 8a can eliminate the lowest-price, least-qualified bidders overnight How recommending a contract vehicle like Seaport NXG instead of SAM or GSA dramatically shrinks the pool of qualified competitors Why pushing for a best value tradeoff instead of LPTA lets your experience and past performance outweigh a lower price by hundreds of thousands of dollars How raising the minimum technical acceptability bar protects the contracting officer and weeds out vendors who can't actually perform EPISODE CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Meeting Mindy your AI research assistant for govcon 0:31 - Welcome to the Federal Help Center podcast community 0:49 - Reviewing a real sources sought response example 1:18 - Shaping early opportunities toward SDVOSB WOSB or 8a 3:19 - Why woman owned small business set-asides get targeted 5:19 - Raising minimum technical acceptability to cut weak bidders 6:59 - Recommending SDVOSB and Seaport NXG over SAM 8:05 - Choosing best value tradeoff and ranking evaluation factors Mindy gives you the federal opportunities, agency signals, recompete intel, and pursuit briefs that tell you not just what contracts exist, but which ones to chase and how to win them.

On this episode of The Lead On Podcast, Jeff Iorg, president of the SBC Executive Committee, explains how ministry leaders can raise their church's spiritual temperature by deepening their own spiritual disciplines, teaching basic practices like prayer and Bible reading, and building regular corporate prayer into the life of the church.

Whether you have kids or not, you influence some little one! Raising or helping to raise children according to the Word is vital! Parents have possibly the most important job of all! Biblical parenting is raising them in the ways of the Lord and showing them who Christ is through the Bible and through your own actions. In today's message, Pastor Mark will share a little about how he raises his daughters to know the Lord, and he sets the example of spending time in the Word with God! Today is your opportunity to have faith like a child and share the Word of God with your children, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews!

How do you give your kids every advantage without raising kids who expect life to hand them everything? In this episode, Dr. Lauryn and Kirby unpack one of the biggest first-generation wealth parenting dilemmas: using money to create opportunity while still teaching work ethic, perspective, gratitude, and financial responsibility.Together, they talk through the money conversations they're having with their kids, from career choices and salary expectations to credit history, Roth IRAs, 529 plans, cars, jobs, chores, and college. They also share where they feel confident, where they still feel like they're figuring it out, and why the way you live may teach your children more about money than anything you say.Key Takeaways:Financial literacy starts with honest conversations. Lauryn and Kirby explain why kids need to understand the connection between career choices, income, lifestyle, debt, and the tradeoffs that come with every path.Wealth can create opportunity without creating entitlement. They discuss tools like building credit history, employing kids through the family business, Roth IRAs, 529 plans, and college planning while still keeping the bigger focus on responsibility.Work ethic is modeled more than it is preached. Kids are watching how you spend, save, work, repair, travel, and find joy, which means your everyday choices may shape their money mindset more than formal lessons.Parenting financially smart kids requires ongoing course correction. Lauryn and Kirby share why they're looking for signs of independence, gratitude, and initiative now, while their kids are still young enough to be guided.Resources:Find all things Dr. Lauryn B including ways to work with herFollow Dr. Lauryn: Instagram | Facebook | LinkedInFollow She Slays on YouTubeMentioned in this episode:Clinic MindClinic Mind is the all-in-one EHR and practice management platform built for chiropractors — billing, documentation, scheduling, and patient follow-up in one place, whether you run a cash practice, take insurance, or are scaling to multiple locations.
