In this episode of "Love Stories," I had the immense pleasure of welcoming Winter, a remarkable woman whose journey through love, loss, and self-discovery is nothing short of inspiring. We dove deep into her life story, starting from her upbringing in Jonesboro, Arkansas, where she grew up as a pastor's daughter, the oldest of three girls, in a loving but modest household. Winter shared how her childhood experiences shaped her, including her early involvement in pageants and the impact of a hurtful comment about her weight that led to struggles with self-esteem and an eating disorder.Throughout our conversation, Winter emphasized the importance of self-discovery and healing. She spoke about the pivotal moment when she was hospitalized due to stress and how that experience led her to a deeper understanding of herself and her worth. With her mother's support and a newfound clarity, Winter made the courageous decision to walk away from a toxic relationship, setting the stage for her personal growth.IN THIS EPISODE:- (05:00) The Impact of a Strict Upbringing- (12:04) The Surprise of Early Motherhood- (19:09) The Heartbreak of Loss- (26:30) The Struggles of Young Marriage- (30:06) Discovering Infidelity- (46:25) The Danger of Not Knowing Your WorthRESOURCESCheck out my How to Attract Devoted Masculine Men Masterclass HERE My FREE eBook The Magnetic WomanApp rec: BumbleFeminine Embodiment HERECONNECT WITH CHARLENE On Instagram @mscharlenebyars On YouTube @chosentrainingWork with me HERECONNECT WITH WINTEROn Instagram HEREHer Links HERE

Josh Newbegin shares his powerful journey from living a party lifestyle to becoming a burned-out church worker to finally discovering true freedom in the gospel of grace. His testimony reveals how the most significant transformation in his life wasn't leaving his partying days behind, but escaping the performance-based Christianity that kept him in a spiritual cage.• Grew up in church but left to pursue adventure and the party lifestyle in snowboarding communities• Found emptiness in his dream lifestyle despite achieving everything he thought would fulfill him• Returned to faith but approached it with a performance mindset, trying to earn God's approval• Experienced burnout from working so hard in ministry while simultaneously battling secret shame• Discovered through mentorship that his value is intrinsic, not based on performance or others' opinions• Realized he had become like the older brother in the prodigal son story – doing the right things for wrong reasons• Found freedom when he understood God already declared him enough and worthy of love• Now helps other men find freedom from pornography addiction by addressing the underlying pain• Continues practicing "gospel" daily, reminding himself of the truth that he is already enough in ChristIf you're struggling with feeling that you're never doing enough for God, remember that your value isn't based on your performance. The gospel declares you are already enough because of what Jesus has done.

Austin Gurney didn't just quit his job—he quit the idea that being a great operator was enough. After moving to a new state with no contacts, he grew his excavation business fast by focusing on systems, showing up when others wouldn't, and thinking like a business owner from day one.He didn't build this to stay busy. He's building it to last.Takeaways:✅Built a steady business from scratch in a brand-new area with zero connections.✅Used daily Facebook group posts (at 5AM) to keep leads coming in before going full time.✅Realized he was spending too much time being a technician—not a leader.✅Wants his business to leave a legacy—not just cover the bills.Why it Matters:If you're growing a blue-collar business and want to scale without being stuck in the machine, this episode gives you the playbook.Links:

For the past year, one of the most commonly asked question in the precious metals world has been, 'when's silver going to catch up with gold?' Yet despite how gold has been setting new all-time record highs, you may be surprised to see how gold and silver have actually performed relative to each other over the rally of the past 18 months. Andrew Pollard of Blackrock Silver also explains why the supply and demand imbalance in silver isn't going to be easy to resolve.

After reviewing some of the AFC North offseason grades given by a national network, Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson focus on one of the teams that's had its own share of struggles.

Happy Friday, yo! Planning to have a nice, relaxing weekend before getting pummeled at Rock Fest next week! Thankfully, it looks like it's going to be very comfortable in Cadott for most of the time we're there. We started the morning off with a few "holidays", including National Mojito Day, National Blueberry Muffin Day, and French Fry Day! We talked about some of the French Fry deals you can take advantage of today, along with some stats & info about our consumption of fries in America. In sports, the Brewers start a 3-game series against the Nationals tonight, Giannis was on a livestream in Greece recently where he talked a bit about his future plans in the NBA, running back Najee Harris got injured by some fireworks over the 4th of July, the roster for the Home-Run Derby at the MLB All-Star game is set, and there won't be an expansion this coming year for March Madness. We let you know what's on the tube this weekend and what's new in theaters…and we talked about the disrespect that Rick Springfield suffered on the Today Show yesterday. Doc joined us to talk racing thanks to County Materials in Holmen, and we checked out the celebration of Moo Deng's first birthday! Can you imagine the rest of the trip after this guy forgot his wife at a gas station? A recent poll discovered that a lot of us are self-conscious about our feet. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", a new phone case that feels & looks like real skin AND gets sunburnt. Plus, stories about a couple having sex while driving an RV down the road, a guy who only steals right shoes(no lefts), another person got busted with drugs inside a bag that was labeled "Definitely NOT a bag of drugs", and a very interesting billboard has popped up in the Cleveland area that is angering some residents.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Movin' The Chains is back with another in-depth Offseason Interview, this time with new Porter-Gaud Head Coach Matt Neighbors!Coach Neighbors has built a strong résumé in the state of Georgia and now makes the jump to lead one of South Carolina's premier SCISA programs. In this conversation, he shares:

Do you ever get to a new destination and always have a realization?That life is so much more than your daily routine, that beauty exists in the simplest moments, and that stillness has a language of its own?That's exactly what happened when I arrived in Cuba.The music in the streets, the warmth of the people, the vintage cars rolling past colorful colonial buildings—it all felt like a world paused in time, reminding me to slow down and just be.Sometimes, travel doesn't just show you a new place. It mirrors back the parts of yourself you've forgotten. Cuba did that for me.

Started as a part-time employee and unknowingly excelled in sales by simply helping people. Realized that sales is just helping people achieve what they want.

Learned cold calling, refined targeting, became top salesperson, and began training others. Gained confidence through servant leadership and authenticity from mentor Evan.   Leadership Style Key philosophy: He supports, removes roadblocks, and leads by doing. Authenticity: This means being the best version of yourself and not pretending to be someone you're not. Team integration: Prioritizes relationships and alignment rather than authority.   Hiring Philosophy Core values come first. Look for loyalty, professionalism, and hard work. Uses tools like LinkedIn, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter. Prefers candidates with equipment-adjacent experience and a stable job history. Wants long-term team members who see the company as a place to retire from.   Managing Existing Teams Challenges of managing people already in place when you're new. Focuses on building trust through authenticity and helpfulness rather than authority. Believes in empowering the team, not controlling it.   Performance Management Performance Improvement Plans (PIPs): Custom, supportive, and hands-on. Rooted in detailed effort and results analysis. Requires a heavy coaching commitment from him. Goal: fix performance issues collaboratively before considering termination.

After transitioning from a sales career to online business in 2008, Justin has sold digital products to over 30,000 customers worldwide. He helps entrepreneurs create “digital real estate” by building scalable, location-independent businesses that generate income through education and online communities.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Justin's success was built on sales mastery, perseverance, and seizing digital opportunities before they were mainstream. Digital products offer an opportunity to create income through memberships, courses, and online summits without geographical limits. Most people delay launching products while waiting for perfection — pre-launch validation is the key. Success comes from solving real problems, not from chasing money or hype. Meditation, affirmations, and mindset reprogramming play a crucial role in his long-term growth.     Topics From Sales Hustler to Digital Entrepreneur Justin started in sales at Best Buy, discovered his skillset, and later became the top salesperson at a major cell phone company. Fired from his job unexpectedly — but that opened the door to his digital business journey. A chance meeting led him to the world of digital products in 2008, before online courses became mainstream. The Power of Digital Real Estate In 2008, Justin learned people were selling digital products globally, even as most people were unaware of this growing market. Attended one of his first webinars and saw $30,000 made in an hour, which shifted his entire paradigm. Realized that failure and setbacks created momentum that allowed him to thrive in the digital space. Launching Products by Pre-Selling Teaches entrepreneurs to launch products before creating them—using simple landing pages, ads, and early buyers to validate ideas. Encourages creators to focus on the buyer's “DNA pattern”—if a few strangers buy, thousands more likely will too. Uses online summits with guest speakers as a powerful lead generation strategy for memberships and coaching programs. Shifting Mindset Through Reprogramming Early limiting beliefs around money and success were replaced with custom affirmations and daily repetition. Recorded himself reading affirmations and replayed them daily during walks to rewire his subconscious. Attributes much of his success to inner work combined with digital skill-building. Maestro and Helping Others Build Digital Empires Through Maestro, Justin helps creators build courses, memberships, and recurring revenue streams. Simplifies the tech barriers many creators face while empowering them to monetize their expertise or curate others'.

In 2024, I did a 5-part podcast series called “25 Sayings on Vol and Risk”.  These are observations I've found do a nice job of describing how markets work, or perhaps better said, how markets sometimes fail to work. Because markets are always teaching us lessons, I couldn't help but add to the original 25 with five new sayings. I'll follow up in short order with another five.Here are our Sayings 26-30: “Financial market objects at rest tend to stay at rest.” “Realized vol rules the world.” “My portfolio is more diversified and liquid than I thought, said no one ever.” “The ten-year note, not the SPX, is the risk asset.” “Shake hands with the government and sell what they're selling.” Hope you Enjoy!

If you're always the one carrying the plan—chasing the deadlines, keeping the vision alive, and pushing things forward while your team drifts—this episode is for you. In this episode, I'm sharing the moment I realized traditional summer planning was setting school leaders up to fail. I'll tell you the story that changed everything for me, why most SIPs fall apart by October, and how you can shift from compliance-based plans to ones your team actually owns. If you're already thinking about next year, this is the episode you need before you start planning so you can plan this summer #LikeABuilder.

[00:02] Welcome to the Show Ryan and Brook welcome Michael Hunter, founder of Spiffy Checkouts, for a conversation about entrepreneurship, marketing, and building scalable businesses.[01:01] The Accidental Marketing Journey Michael started as an entrepreneur at 17 with commission-only sales, got hooked on Tony Robbins, realized speaking was the highest-paid profession, but knew he needed marketing skills first. Spent 13-14 years learning by getting paid to do marketing for others.[03:39] Why Commission-Only Sales at 17 "Ruined" Him The summer between high school and college, Michael chose Cutco kitchen knives over $15/hour catering work. Became a raving fanatic for a product he believed in, learned consultative selling vs. sleazy tactics. Brook reveals this as one of his top recruiting centers for trained salespeople.[08:40] The Miserable Three-Year Grind Failed business partnerships, working alone, constantly losing deals to ex-Infusionsoft employees who had credibility but weren't even good at the software. The breaking point that led to a strategic career move.[11:13] The 45-Degree Angle Strategy Michael took a pay cut to join Infusionsoft for 16 months, not as a direct path but as strategic positioning. "Sometimes the scenic route is actually the fastest path." Left when it got political, returned to agency work with instant credibility boost.[14:10] Moving in 45-Degree Angles Explained Not direct line from A to B, but strategic sidesteps that accelerate long-term progress. Like taking the Infusionsoft job - wasn't direct alignment but helped reach end goals faster.[16:43] From Agency Work to Spiffy Checkouts In the trenches building funnels, websites, copy, ads - knew every tool and limitation. Started custom coding Infusionsoft order forms for big-name clients at $2,500 per checkout page. Realized the opportunity to scale this solution.[19:30] The Agency Hell Reality Check High-stress clients, crossed boundaries, vacations interrupted by launches. "Can't raise families doing this." Identified 20 software ideas, narrowed to 3, chose Spiffy based on highest opportunity, lowest risk to execute.[20:19] You're Competing Against Netflix, Not Other Coaches Mobile optimization isn't just mobile-ready, it's optimized for mobile experience. Your competition isn't direct competitors - it's the user experience set by billion-dollar companies like Netflix and Facebook.[22:29] The Irresistible Offer Foundation Before checkout optimization comes offer optimization. No amount of funnel hacking can fix a broken offer. Must have irresistible offer first, then optimize the experience.[23:16] What Makes an Irresistible Offer People know what's in their product but fail to explain the benefit of getting that result. Your product is a bridge from point A to point B - stop selling the bridge features, start selling the destination.[25:41] The Four Forces Framework Effort required, speed to value, certainty of result, and urgency. Cost-to-value contrast: charge 1/3 to 1/10 of perceived value. Example: "5-day workshop" vs "5-hour workshop" completely changed conversion rates.[28:03] The Xanax vs Meditation Example Effort required, speed to value, certainty, urgency - Xanax wins on all four forces even though meditation is better long-term. How can you make your solution more immediate without compromising quality?[30:54] Marketing the Long-Term Solution Address symptoms first, guide to core problems. Restaurant owner thinks he needs marketing (symptom) but really needs systems (core problem). Meet them where their awareness is, then elevate their thinking.[35:59] What Separates Successful Personal Brands Don't copy what big names do NOW - that's not how they got started. Michael logged into Brendan Burchard's simple systems and was shocked. Fo
