John 6:22-40 Jesus says, “I am the bread of life.” It sure is a strange way to talk about yourself, isn’t it? I am bread? I could understand if he would have said maker of bread, or baker of bread or giver of bread. But, I am bread? A person is bread? Really? No one ever spoke like this! Come this Sunday as we explore this famous saying by Jesus.

It was a tweet today from the president -- one of many -- but this one, sent the markets into a dive. Mr. Trump says he's instructed his allies to *stop* negotiating on a coronavirus stimulus plan until after the election. Wouldn't sending out aid...*help* his chances? What's the game plan? We'll go In-Depth. What looks to be the COVID super-spreader event at the White House Rose Garden is demonstrating how, over 8-months into this pandemic, contact tracing networks are still not nearly as robust as they should be........we'll ask why. And 2020 has to be one of, if not THE, most challenging year for the movie business ---- with more major blockbuster release dates being pushed back, we'll ask whether theaters will still be in business by then.   The flu versus COVID debate is back, the President tweeting about it again. The questionable claim that coronavirus is no more dangerous or deadly than a seasonal flu. Is he right? We'll ask one expert...........and then we'll talk with two people who have lived through their own COVID infections to show just how variable and unpredictable the virus can be.

In this episode, Marni and her favorite man-panelist, Chris Gillis break down Episode 9 to pull out all the juicy nuggets you need to know. Together, they translate the show’s drama into real-life dating and relationship scenarios you can use in your life to make finding a real, high-quality guy easier.    Key takeaways from this episode:  The strong emotions we feel after physical intimacy Why self-worth should be based on more than physical assets The importance of trust and commitment in a relationship How the relationships from our past bleed into our dating life Why you should set the record straight about your values   Why Do We Feel Safe After Sex? [1:16]  In episode nine, it is implied that Peter had sex with both Hannah and Victoria F. During the postcoital conversation, Victoria told Peter she loved him.     Marni says that Victoria F. felt validated by having sex and she experienced a safe feeling from it. Chris agrees, saying that most of Victoria F’s self-worth is based on her physical appearance. It’s possible she was high on hormones and that is what made her act differently after sex.   Peter seems to thrive on chaos. He may be in lust with 3 women but he doesn't know what he wants. When Victoria F. opens the door for feedback but gives away her power by asking Peter what she needs to work on. Peter avoids the conversation by saying ‘oh, nothing’.   The two things you need in a relationship are trust and commitment. And, Peter doesn’t trust Victoria F. enough to have a real conversation. Marni recommends holding off on physical intimacy while you are collecting data about a person.    The Mythology of a Good Relationship [13:25] We all grow up in different environments and we have mythologies of what a relationship should be. Based on Chris's life observing the relationships in his life, he thought relationships should be chaotic with abandonment, pushing and pulling with a lot of uncertainty. He grew accustomed to relationships having a lack of commitment.     Peter needs constant validation and to make sure the girls are into him. He seems to want the girls to be dependent on him. His version of love is bathed in chaos.    Marni points out that mature love doesn’t need drama. Life provides enough chaos. Think about the relationship environment you grew up in, do your current relationships create the same environment?    Mean What You Say and Say What You Mean [21:42] Peter has said that sex in a relationship is very important to him. Yet, Madison who has decided to abstain from sex until after marriage has failed to mention it to him on several dates.    If you have something big about yourself that you are holding back, like not wanting to have kids or abstaining from sex, you need to be upfront and direct about telling the other person. Maybe not on the first date, but early enough in the relationship so it doesn’t seem like a bombshell.    When Madison finally shares her truth, Peter asks her to change her values for him.    Marni says Peter reaches out for what he can’t have. He thrives on controlling the relationship. Chris wants to analyze Peter’s upbringing because he knows it was screwed up.    Make a Connection: Visit Our Website Join Our Dating Den Facebook Community Here!

Andy Behrens and Dalton Del Don are back to discuss all things NBA in the latest fantasy basketball podcast.To kick us off, Andy tells us about the Chicago Bulls’ GLORIOUS 34-point win over the Atlanta Hawks last night.Let’s move on. In this week’s Starting Five, Andy and Dalton run down the five biggest storylines of the fantasy week:1) There hasn't been much love for Kevin Love from fantasy managers. He's scored less than 10 points in 5 of his last 7 games. And now, the Cavalier is popping up in trade rumors. There might be a buying opportunity in fantasy if he ends up on a contender ... if a contender is willing to take on his hefty contract. (04:25)2) Apologies to Knicks fans, even on this podcast you are not safe. Head Coach David Fizdale is gone but the Knicks are ... still the Knicks. Could we see the Knicks unleash their young players like RJ Barrett and Mitchell Robinson in the second half of the season? (8:39)3) Devonte Graham dropped a 40-piece on the Brooklyn Nets last night with seven 3's. He's currently returning second-round value in 9-cat leagues over the full season. Can he keep it up? (11:50)4) Marc Stein reports that we might not see Zion Williamson play in a game until 2020. Zion was previously ruled out of playing in any back-to-backs this season. Andy and Dalton tackle what managers should do if they are stashing the rookie on their teams. (15:01)5) DeAndre Ayton and John Collins are soon to return from their PED suspensions. They might already be gone from your waiver wire, but their return might impact other players on your team. Will early-season surprise Aron Baynes still be worth rostering when Ayton returns? Can Jabari Parker continue his renaissance year when Collins comes back to Atlanta? (19:57)[Yahoo Sportsbook powered by BetMGM: Deposit $10, Get $100 in Free Bets. NJ only. 21+.

And now let's begin our next session of get sellers calling you. [00:00:22] All right, well, hey, this is Beatty Carmichael again. And welcome back to the Get Sellers calling you realtor podcast. I'm really excited today because I get to visit with not only a real top producing agent. One of our early clients, but also another one of my personal friends named Josh Vernon. And what's really interesting, we're going to talk about this a little bit, but this as a real quick background. Josh catapulted into his fourth year doing over 100 transactions a year. And he's done a lot in this business. He's got a great balance and just a lot to share. So, Josh, welcome to the call and thanks for being with us. [00:01:06] Thanks, Beatty. Appreciate the opportunity. And always get to spend a few minutes talking with you. So I enjoy it. I'm glad to be here. [00:01:13] Well, I appreciate you taking the time, because I know how well I was going to say I know how busy you are, but I'm not really sure you're all that busy. I think your team is. But I don't know about you. [00:01:24] It's you know, it's funny. It's it's been busier for probably the last month than I've been in a while. You know, we just recently made a brokerage change and there's been a lot of a lot of fun with that, but also a lot of a lot of extra work. But yeah, the people on our team are definitely be the ones responsible for most of the business now. So we're thankful for it for all they do for. For us. For sure. [00:01:46] Great. Well, I'm also for the listeners and viewers. [00:01:50] This is an Internet interview that I'm doing. So please pardon any type of Internet interruptions that may occur like what may have just happened. Did I lose you, Josh? I think we may have lost Josh. [00:02:08] Ok. [00:02:09] All right. So we're back. And I think, Josh, we just got to pack. I was just reminding everyone that this is an Internet interview and take part in any type of interruptions. And just at that moment, everything idea and shut down. Perfect timing, right? It is perfect timing. So. [00:02:28] So, Josh, I'd love to find out this little bit about your actually, I know a lot about you, but for the folks listening, can you share just a little bit about about who you are and how long you've been in business and just just a big picture overview. [00:02:43] Sure. So I've been in business going on nine years now, about 8 1/2, 9 years. I got in the business in 2010, very end of 2010. I've been in banking for almost 10 years. When I got into this, I was a branch manager at a local bank here. I really loved what I was doing, but I felt like I needed more time with my family and just, you know, really to be rewarded more firm for my efforts that I put in and felt like getting into a business like real estate would would offer me those things. One of the things I and I know you know this baby and you know, I always point to this when I when I first started, I'd been almost 10 years at the bank, had a great career and just felt like I was led to go do something different. And I felt like real estate was the right option. And, you know, I thought that I really fought it for about six months. And the more I thought it, the more I knew that it was what I needed to do. And so obviously, it's been it's been a good run. I had a goal of selling 12 homes my first year just to keep my family afloat. We sold 34. So it was it wasn't too bad of our first year and then while that early been up ever since. So anyway, that's kind of the high level overview of that. [00:04:10] I love it. So. OK. So that's a high level overview. Now, let's fast forward a little bit. Thirty four homes in your first year of business. You were expecting to do twelve. [00:04:21] And last year, which was, let's see, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen. Said last year was your eighth year in business. How many transactions did you do last year? [00:04:31] We rented 62 last year. So you've had quite a growth rate. Yeah. It's been pretty good for sure. [00:04:39] And then I gotta ask you this high level. [00:04:43] Average hours a week you put into your real estate. This is how many hours do you think it is? [00:04:48] I would say, you know, it's different every week, but on average, I'd say around 20 to 30 in 20 to 30 hours a week. [00:04:55] I love it. So. So now we've got encapsulated why people need to listen to this call. [00:05:01] I want to roll the video back just a moment. You felt led to go from banking where you had this secure, secure job, great income, and to go into straight commission sales with real estate. When you say let me give me a little bit more idea of what you're talking about and what you think was the reason for that. Well, sure. [00:05:23] So let me probably take one even further step back from that. I was actually part of a networking referral group, and I most people probably heard of that. I was the banker in the group. We had a real estate agent in the group. And I had been sending her a good bit of referrals. And she kept saying, why don't you get your real estate license so that when you send me referrals, I can pay you a referral fee on those. And I'm sure, you know, I can do that. But, you know, I wasn't really in a big hurry to do it. I'd always dabbled in real estate. And that was kind of right after the time when flipping homes was a big thing. I'd flip a few homes with some family members and had good success with that. And so I always thought about real estate, but never, never as a full time job for sure. So that being said, after she made that suggestion, I went ahead and started the course and started working my way through that. And about halfway through that course, my wife was actually pregnant at the time with our second child. About halfway through that course, I started feeling like I was being led by my my God to to make a career change. And I'll always call it my Moses moment where I argued with God. You know what I mean by that? Know, Moses argued with God saying, I'm not the right one. I can't do this. You know, that's that's kind of where I was. [00:06:42] And, you know, I was I was fighting it from a standpoint of, you know, I've got one child already, one on the way. My wife doesn't work. She she works hard at home, but she doesn't work outside the home. So it's all me. So if I don't make money, we're gonna be in big trouble here. So that's where the whole twelve homes a year came from. I basically was figuring what it would take to really more or less keep our current lifestyle that we had. And anyway, like I say, I I thought God for I would say probably close to six months. And it was literally all I thought about. I couldn't eat without thinking about it. I could I couldn't go to sleep. It was first thing I thought of when I woke up, like there was no question in my mind it was where I needed to be. So I actually mentioned it to my wife. Finally, after about probably four or five months of this personal battle that I was having with myself, and her response was, well, OK, let's do it. And I'm like, are you serious? You know, you're supposed to be the one to talk some sense into me and tell me, you know, we can't do that. We can't afford this. But no, she was supportive. And anyway, so it was. It all has worked itself out. Obviously, I was always say if you're where you're supposed to be, it's all gonna work it. [00:07:54] You know, that's really neat because I actually have a similar story. I won't tell you the full story. [00:07:59] But I we had a young child. My wife was pregnant. She was like, you're your wife. A stay at home mom. Very busy. The only difference is, rather than me having a really successful career and a nice, steady paycheck, we found ourselves at the beginning of that year with me being unemployed and my wife being a stay at home mom. You know, we had the mortgage on the car and mortgage on the car payment and those type of things. And through a series of events, that's when the Lord led me. I didn't realize he was leading me. It's just something I did. And actually it was October of nineteen ninety seven Euro, October 2010. So October of 97 we started this little business and put in perspective how difficult that year was. My adjusted my adjusted gross income for that year was eleven thousand eight hundred eighty two dollars. Okay. So you know, nothing really happened. But let me see if I get this right. So when you when you're in the center of where God's leading you, you mentioned that things just happen. I think it was so two years later, we bought the home that we just moved from that you helped to sell and we pay that home off in five months. Okay. I mean, the thing had just taken off and it was obviously a God thing. And and seeing how your business has been growing, I would say is definitely a good thing for you to know that. [00:09:33] A question. When I started, people would ask me all the time, like, you know, what do you attribute your success to? And I would say lots of prayer. Just kind of get a giggle and I'm like, no, I'm saying I'm serious, you know. But that's that's what I attributed to. So. [00:09:49] Well, let's talk on that for a moment, because you've had you know, you you started your career hoping for 12 transactions. You got over 30. And then the second year you got how many transactions in your second year? [00:10:03] Well, it was mid 40s, I wanna say was forty four. Forty five, something like that. [00:10:07] Ok. And then your third year was fifty. [00:10:11] And then in North Wales, 108. That was the first year I had someone helping me. I had Jamie Reynolds. You know Jamie. Yep. They joined me from outside of real estate. You never sold a home? No. Really? No clue what he was doing. And he actually joined me, I think was March or April, if I remember correctly. And he had actually. He'd been kind of helping me behind the scenes a couple of months. But he really he quit his job and jumped in both feet in March or April with me. And we had a good run that year, for sure. No question. [00:10:44] So I want to you know, a lot of times I think a lot of the interviews will, especially with someone of your track record in growth, will focus on what did you do in the natural. If that makes sense, you know, what did you do as a real estate agent? I want to find out. You know, the battle is won in the spirit realm and the spiritual side before it's won in though natural. Does that make sense? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. You know, you mentioned the Moses moment. Moment. Well, there is a really significant Moses moment in the Bible. God had just brought his children out of Egypt. They're battling. I think it's the malachite. Moses is up on the hill with his staff and and down in the valley is the battle going on. Do you remember that? That section of the Bible? Yes, that's right. OK. So here's what's cool. He takes his staff and as long as he holds his staff up. Right. The Israelites win when he lowers his staff because his arms get tired. The Israelites lose. OK. And then Malachi went. So they two guys prop up his arm. All the staff. Right. And I think this is a perfect picture of how life really is, is the activity we do in the natural. That somehow in this spiritual causes victory and then that manifests itself back out into the natural circumstances. Are you following that connection? Yes, definitely. So talk to me in terms of what was your practice in the as. As a Christian. OK, what do what do you contribute? Because you keep focusing this back, you know, is prayer. Talk to me in terms of of what you think, you know, when you say prayer. What do you mean? How did you live your life? What are you what are the things that you feel are really the things that cause you to win in the spiritual realm where God had favor and right. Last you in the natural? [00:12:44] Well, and I think to kind of point back to even my career as a banker, you know, I was I was one of the youngest bank managers they had ever had in one of the smallest branches out of about two thousand in the company. And I think when I went out the year I quit, I was actually number two out of two thousand branches in the company in one of the bottom one hundred branches based on size in the area. Wow. You know, I feel like I always point back to when you do for others that it comes back to you. I've always focused on doing what's right for others. One of our our team models that we talk about, it cost us some money sometimes, but we do what's right. Every time no questions asked. There is not to be any any discussion if it's the right thing to do is what we do. The agents on our team know that and we just put others first is what it comes to. And I feel like that's one of those things. My focus wasn't, you know, God, please bless my business so that I can make lots of money. It was please give me opportunities to help others. And that's what I've looked for throughout the career. And I wish I could say I've been perfect on that. You know, obviously, weight, we're all week from time to time. But that's been my focus and my my prayer since the beginning has helped me to help others and use me to help others. [00:14:03] So, you know, it's interesting as as he said that my mind popped back to Solomon and ah, and God asked him, what would you like Solomon? And he says, Give me wisdom to rule your poor well down. And God said, Well, since you asked for that, I will do that. But since you did not ask for riches and stuff, I will blessed you with even more riches. What a greater great testimony. So you're if I were to look at your daily practice. OK. In terms of your walk with the Lord, your daily attitude as you approach. Things peel back that onion a little bit more, help us help me understand more of what you mean. You know, asking the Lord for opportunities to help people and and what that really means. I don't have. I'm not sure how to couch the question. I'm trying to pull out of the. [00:15:01] I'm really trying to think how to answer that question. I mean, yeah. I think, you know, obviously having a strong prayer life, having having that daily Bible readings, things like that. You know, there's there's there's a lot of good information in that in that Bible sitting on your table, you know, pretty much any answer to life that you wants in there. [00:15:23] You just gotta know how to read it, know how to find it. That being said, I mean, I don't know if that's answering your question or not, if that's what you're looking for. But I do I do make it a point everyday to find time to read. One of the things I made a decision to do. I felt like I kind of slacked off on on those things. And I actually just personally made the decision. I really don't watch TV anymore. We've got TV where we haven't cut the cord. First day I do still watch football on Saturday is when football season is on. But we just we don't watch network television in the evenings and you'll be amazed at how much extra time. You know, I mean, like one of the things we are I personally set a goal for last year was to read 40 books throughout the year or actually read 42 this year. I've got a goal to reach 60. And these are, you know, business, personal development, threesomes, some Christian. And there, you know. I've got some some favorites that I've read recently, but one of them was a rhinoceros success from from you, actually, that I thoroughly enjoyed. But I've just tried to really spend some time working on myself over the last couple of years. And that's made a big difference, too. And I mean, honestly, the the better you do, better you build yourselves, the more you're able to help others as well. So I don't know if that answers your question. That's kind of the model at this time. [00:16:46] Know, and what it also shows me and tells me is you're not just saying, OK, I pray to the Lord and I ask for him to guide me. [00:16:55] And then I do sit back and wait. I mean, just your goal of reading 40 books and you did 42. OK. You're driven. And so let's talk a little bit about if we were to look at. If I were to ask you, Josh, what would you say are the top three reasons you have been successful both and what you did in the banking business and now what you do in business? How would you rank those top three reasons? And and what do you tell us? What those are littlest. Let's start. [00:17:30] There was a. So that's a really tough one. [00:17:36] I mean, I do think obviously the focus on others is is high up there. I mean, I think a strong drive for success is in there as well. You know, I mean, that's something when I was running by myself, you know, you mentioned 30, 40, 50 homes a year that I was selling when it was just me. I would work 20 to 25 days in a row without taking a day off. And my wife would be like, you've got to stop. And I'm like, no, I'm fine. I'm I love what I'm doing. [00:18:02] Like, you know, when you love what you do and love what you do, it's never work. You know, they say it never felt like work. No, I mean, I can even remember. But maybe one or two days in the last nine years that felt like work. But at the same time, she needed to be happy here. You know, she. She needed me to stop and do things around the house and things to help her out. So that being said, like, I would say that that strong drive to to just be successful. I know. I'm not giving you a one, two, three. You know, this is this is Colby's dance around the questions when you ask me things like this. But, you know, I mean, I think it just I think a drive to be better to, you know, to to better myself and to better others. So I think we're all capable. We just have to put the effort in. [00:18:50] Well, let's let's talk about Tom. So you're working all these hours. [00:18:53] You're working all these days without stop and then you started to change your model. Let's talk about how do you go from being that one man show, doing all the work, working all these hours and start to put a team together? Can you guide us on that which you did? Sure. [00:19:13] I can actually kind of tell you where it where it all started. And I'm just going to throw the the the credit on that to Jamie. Jamie, actually, I mentioned before I was part of a bee sting when I left banking. I got that great call. Jamie joins that group a year or two later and his business was different. Like I said, he was he was actually selling carpet for covering artwork, things like that. And he wanted to connect with me being a realtor. Well, he saw I was doing an open house one day, but I wasn't doing one. I was actually doing three at the same time on the same street that I had for sale. Go big or go home. Right. So I was I was doing three open houses at the same time. Jamie stopped by, met me. We started talking and more or less built a friendship. And from there, he had actually read the millionaire real estate agent book. Gary Keller kind of had a vision that this team model would work. Well, I was kind of at a phase, I guess I was around 50 sales where I did not feel like I was really getting great customer service anymore at that point. And it honestly kind of got out of control. And to a point where I really wasn't able to manage it well. So I was doing my best, but I wasn't doing great for anyone anymore. I was getting more complaints than I had ever had before. More disappointing customers than I'd ever had before. And honestly, the reason was just I was dropping the ball because I couldn't I could not manage that many people at one time. So that's when Jamie got his license to kind of more or less be a support system for me. And from there would run into a pretty great partnership and a really, really great friendship, too. [00:20:56] So, you know, I remember in Gary's book, It's Been Fat is fascinating for me because as you know, I have never sold a house profession in my life. Right. All right. And I'm reading this book and it's like peeling back the onion of all the things that people been told. But now it measures that in one of the things that I remember so clearly, because I thought, wow, this is you know, it's it's it should not be it should be common knowledge, but it's not. And that is as soon as statistically when someone hires an assistant, their volume doubles on average in that per share. And and you know, what you're talking about with with what happened with Jamie is know you'd reach that level of you could spin no more plates because they were starting to follow. Fall in customer service. Now you bring someone else on board. Tell me what happened at that point. Not not just by me. I know the volume came up a lot. I would talk in terms of what it meant to you in business to have an extra pair of hands and someone who is capable. [00:22:08] And it's funny you mention spinning plates. We always use the description of juggling balls, but I describe real estate as juggling a bowling ball, a basketball, a tennis ball, a golf ball and a football. All right. Well, there's so many different tasks that you're doing, you know, and so each one is a different weight, a different size, a different texture. You try juggling all those different balls at the same time and see what happens. So that's. One of the things, again, that we took from the real estate model that Jamie believed in so heavily when he joined me that I had to read this book. You just got to do it. So I did. And we bought in. And that's actually what brought us to where we are today. I don't want to get ahead of myself here, but you know, where we do have a specialist model, where we have someone who is an expert at listening and that's all they do. And, you know, our by a team, that's all they do in our admin team. That's all they do. So that being said, when Jamie first joined, we jumped from 51 sales to one hundred and eight sales the very first year. So like you said, is actually just over double, double the business. [00:23:09] And that's with Jamie. And I don't think January would be upset with let me say this. He's never written a contract to date. Never really until he saw how I got. [00:23:18] I got to stop. Got to stop. I've always thought that Jamie was a buyer's agent for you. [00:23:25] He was you know, he's never written sales contract and he's never written a sales contract. [00:23:30] That's not to say he doesn't review every one of them that goes out. But he has never himself sat down with a paper or typed on the computer and written the contract. And again, that's one of those things. Figuring out leverage. We've got our wives involved. And and, you know, it's changed the game for us. You know, I became the listing agent solely Jamie became the buyer's agent solely. And our lives kind of were support on the backside. My wife read all of our contracts, helped support us. Therapist She had learned that over time. Help me. His wife did a lot of our marketing and helped with that stuff, you know, and she was influential when we first started with you designing our postcards and things like that. [00:24:07] So we figured out really quickly that we, you know, and the support of our wives obviously could take this thing to the next level. We really didn't know how far we could take it. [00:24:19] And we jumped 100 a year for the first two years from 100 to 200, 200, 300. And then we can really close to doing it. The third year in a row. We got to 390 for that. That third year. And then, of course, last year we were just under that. Like I said, around 360 to. So we fell just short. We actually we made some big changes last year. And, you know, I mean, obviously, I wish this. I wish it always went up. But eventually it's got got to shift a little bit. So we feel like our our move to Keller Williams recently, you know, we moved last month. [00:24:53] Like I told you and you know, we actually we've hired three new buyers agents in the last 48 hours. So we're about where I to see this. This thing's going back up again. We're pretty excited about it. [00:25:05] Oh, this you're listening to the get sellers calling you podcast to increase sales from past clients and sphere of influence or from a geographic farm. Learn about Agent Dominator. [00:25:15] We guarantee your sales in writing or give your money back to learn more. Visit our Web site and get sellers calling you dot com. That's like Agent Dominator from the menu. [00:25:24] And now back to the podcast. [00:25:27] It's real interesting. So. [00:25:29] So when I work with client agents across the country, a lot of times there is a disdain for the millionaire real estate agent because from their perspective, is the competitors book. OK. Yeah. And and I look at it as a great resource. But you just move to Keller Williams. You were not working with you were not a Keller Williams agent back then and all of this was happening. [00:25:54] That's right. Yeah. So it was the competitors book for years. We always knew Keller Williams was a great place. But we for whatever reason, we had great friends in the business that we were working with. And, you know, for for a multitude of reasons, we didn't make the move. But we're seeing the light now, so to speak, in a way. We went ahead, made the move. And I mean, it's been incredible for us, without a doubt. I mean, this is it exceeded every expectation we had so far and where we're right at 30 days and at this point. Wow. I love it. It happen. It was all in our minds right now. [00:26:30] So I love it. I love it. [00:26:32] I don't want to make this a promotion for Keller Williams, but I do as much as I want to make this point. The content in the book is great. And even if it's the competitors book, still learn from. Because what you guys did, you were pretty much modeling your business after what the model was in the book. [00:26:53] Isn't this right? I mean, we're about 95 percent after the model in the book. Very, very little tweaks. Yes. [00:27:01] So it really works how it really works. [00:27:05] And I think a lot of people that I've spoken to, they fight it for. For, again, different reasons. And I've heard some I've heard some some good, good excuses and I've heard some really bad excuses, too, just like anything. I think I think that anything, anything that you buy into an implement properly is going to work to some extent. But why not follow after someone who has the history and the knowledge that Gary Keller has? Right. [00:27:33] All right. So let me ask you and your so you went from into simple numbers, 50 to 100 to 200 to 300. [00:27:44] What were you doing? So I know you're building a team, but somehow you've got to drive business to that team. What? Sure. What's the big rock stuff that you did that drove the business and. [00:27:58] I think a lot of it, you know, to some extent there was a lot of buying zilla leads. They haven't been down leads. That paper like leads. Google stuff like that. Obviously, we did the postcards. Are you guys that worked great. We actually do you we took over a neighborhood that we had never even sold a home in. It was a neighborhood that we wanted to be in. And I pretty much thought was unattainable for lack of a better word. I guess, you know, I called it a day that it was, you know, basically saturated, you know, with two or three who are our really good friends, actually. But they were pretty much only my neighborhood. And I'd never sold a home in there. And I got with you and we teamed up and came up with a plan. And in less than a year, we were number one. Not only in that I report in that zip code had been number one. And there's a sense of 25th through current number one and trustful trust. Alabama's where we are. It's my hometown is where most of our team lives and where up until just recently our office was located. But, you know, we have we have a great reputation in the community now. And I feel like we have a pretty strong base here. It's still where we work. You know, we all who we all work from trustful. It's just our our home base is now in Keller Williams Stadium. But anyway, that being said, yeah, a lot of a lot of purchased advertising like as the Zillow needs, things like that. We've tried a lot of different things. But I think honestly, the thing that's helped us the most is just having a lot of homes for sale and selling them quickly. I say all the time signs that go up and then go right back down are probably your best advertising you can do. The challenge is getting those signs up in the first place. So that was the where where we got some help from you and from two other sources as well. [00:30:00] So let me ask you. So. [00:30:01] So you use a lot of advertising dollars in various forms to drive this Zillow boomtown. Working with us and other things, we want to hit a mass. Do you have to keep that spend up or is just your exposure now driving a lot of business to you automatically? [00:30:24] Well, I mean, I think we have what we've done is we're still spending almost the same amount of money we have pulled back. So no question. Last year we pulled back a pretty good bit, actually. Just there was some market shift in our area. Definitely a lack of inventory. I think every realtor who has been a realtor for more than a year can attest to that. But at the same time, we have we've been able to shift our dollars. I feel I can the more dollar productive areas and I mean, I think we're probably spending 10 percent less to produce about the same results. So we did have about a about a 8 percent drop from 2017 and 2018. And again, I feel like that was as much a lack of inventory as it was some changes that we were making for our team structure last year. We're on pace to do better than that this year already. So that's all right. A little 10 percent reduction in spans. [00:31:19] So what are you finding right now is where your dollars are best spent? What's puts most productive? [00:31:26] I mean, I still go back to the tried and true as the lone boomtown for buyers. As of right now, we're not really spending a lot of money to bring in sellers. We have some things that we think we probably will do over the next six or eight months. [00:31:43] But mostly at this point we're Lionel's sphere and referrals and reputation to drive that ship. And I mean, that's been huge for us to be able to, again, like I say, shift those dollars over to paper, click and Zillow and stuff like that, and let the reputation and sphere kind of drive the listings. [00:32:04] You know, something we're experimenting with. And right now, just to kind of throw Allen in case you have interest, is a video OK? Just like we're doing a video interview here. But video testimonials drive, you know, multiples of, you know, four to eight times more responsiveness than a written word. What you get out of the millionaire real estate agent is that I met list is much more productive than a non met. And so one thing you might want to consider doing, and this is what I've been doing, experimenting on this in a plug for me, I'm just saying that. So I'll interview people like I thank you. You do remember suits Gerard Sutton. Did they reconnect you all together? Yes. Okay. So, like, I did two interviews for him because he's targeting two separate farms. And the interview is basically. I may say so, sir. I live in very critical. Why should I do business with you? And it's a back and forth that then can be promoted into that farm to these people who've never met him. They've seen his signs and now they get to meet him and get to understand more. So as you guys are. Are working with you through referrals and other things. One thing if you can create a strategy around it to work would be to generate know do it through a video of some sort that now vicariously allows you to meet the people they get to get comfortable with you and probably drive even more business. Gotcha. That sounds great. Hey, let me ask you this. Just curious. The best day. KW branch, is that Jenny? Is she the team leader? Jen tumour. Yeah. OK. Yeah. Okay. Because, you know, we have more connections than I realized that you started every day. [00:33:56] Yeah. You started similar to May the Lord led you into it. Yeah. Young child and one on the way. All risk. And now your team leader is the daughter of my pastor. [00:34:08] Right. So she told me so. [00:34:10] So that's really neat. Hey, I want to shift gears real quickly and talk about family work life balance. Talk to me a little bit about that, because you went through that period time where you were way out of balance from your wife's perspective. Now, at the beginning, the call, you said you were maybe 20 or 25 hours a week. Quite a number. What have you done deliberately to manage on that and why? [00:34:36] So I think obviously having a team like I mentioned. So wait, we do have a specialist model. So there are basically three three categories in the specialist model. [00:34:47] Honestly, we truly believe one is not any more important than the other. [00:34:52] So we do have a team of listing agents, only a team of buyers, agents only and a team of admins. A team of admins are probably many, if not the most influential group on our team because they're the ones that keep the wheels of this bus turning. They're the ones that keep our contracts in order order all of our services that have to be done prior to closing the schedule or closings and manage. They they check with the lenders to make sure everything's on pace. And I can keep going for four hours, you know. That to me is by far the biggest, most important thing that we added to the puzzle, because I do take so much time off of our our agents. So the agents on our team get to do what they're best at. We just focus on nurturing leads. People who are interested in buying, selling and get them in homes, decide what they want, help them get the contract ready to write up and then handed over to the admins and then start the process over our listing. Agents were able to go out, meet with sellers, help them get their homes staged, get the home listed, hand it over to the admins, move on to the next one. So it's a it's a great model. One of the one of the highlights of billionaire real estate model is Leeds listings leverage. That leverage to me is by far the most important thing because we can do this over and over and over again and we can replicate it without anyone feeling the burden of of that extra work because it spread over everyone equally. [00:36:23] But I can certainly attest to that because you guys were the listing agent on my home. [00:36:30] We bought this home and then after we bought it, so that one. And it was such a smooth process and everything was you know, everything was I was looking at it from a business owner standpoint a little bit. And I think, man, you know, everything is systematized. Everything happens at the perfect time. I'm dealing with this person for one thing, where I'm dealing with the listing agent for something else. And then even after the sale, there is this process that I'm thinking, wow, this is why you guys have such a phenomenal business, because you have driven a process around that. [00:37:06] So right on that. Thank you. [00:37:10] So talk to me in terms of what I want to go back, if we can. I want to kind of open up the door a little bit more in your relationship with the Lord, with what? That how that drives your behavior. Okay. So real simple. This is kind of what I'm trying to get to. You know, our belief drives the behavior which drives the action. And your belief is up here with your relationship with the Lord. And I want to talk about how does your relationship with the Lord, how is it driven if you can? And I don't know if you've ever thought about it, but, you know, how does it driven what you do in your business, what you do in terms of how you structure it so you have time with your family. Can you talk to us a bit about that? [00:37:58] Yeah, I mean, I I would say a couple of things. I mean, one of the things I mentioned was, you know, in the beginning, I was working 27, 28 days in a row without a day off. I mean, obviously, now I don't work Sundays anymore. It's just one of those things. It's it's a personal thing. I don't work on Sunday. My team knows I don't. I will check messages Sunday evening. Make sure I haven't missed anything important. But otherwise, I spend that with family and just just get my mind focused on the Lord rather than on 20 things at work. And that as far as I think you and I talked about this a little bit before we get started. But one of the things we strongly believe in is do the right thing every time, no questions asked. It doesn't matter how much it cost, doesn't matter what it is. My my desire is to when I get out of this business one day. There can't be anybody that said Josh didn't do the right thing in this instance. And honestly, just I'm speaking about myself here, but I don't know that there is an instance where we haven't done the right thing, even when it meant costing thousands of dollars in costs, because, you know, if we're responsible, we're we're going to take care of it. [00:39:10] So I'd like to I'd like to pipe up on that because I've experienced it. [00:39:16] So you and I are in addition to being personal friends. There's also a vendor client relationship between us under vendor. You're my client. And we've gone through a number of different opportunities to work together in various capacities, each with its own agreement. Well, the thing that's always impressed me with you is doing the right thing. You know, you would follow you. So we were. I remember we were doing something and working with you on a farm. And you wanted to get out of that agreement because there was something else that you felt would be better. But a big conflicting. And this is when you were working with Isaiah, if you remember that. Yes, that's right. And so you called me up and you said, you know, can I get out? What would I have to pay you? Okay. And this is just one example of where, you know, a lot of agents we find when they get to the end of wanting to be someplace. Then at that point, they usually choose to just pull out, OK. And and force their way out. But in every single instance where we would make a transition, you are always there to do the right thing and to make sure that the way it was managed was done properly. And I just really appreciate that that well. [00:40:42] And I always point back to my grandfather. He was in business for years when I was growing up, and he didn't always have the most successful business, but he had the best reputation in the business. And he told me all the time there's more time and make money than there is time to rebuild a reputation. So I try to try to always live that well. [00:41:00] I just think that's really neat. So in what other ways has the your relationship with the Lord impacted besides doing the right thing? [00:41:10] Is there anything else? No, I'm not trying to get to anything specific. I'm just trying to figure out if there's anything else there. [00:41:16] I don't know that anything necessarily comes to mind. [00:41:21] I think that we've I mean, we've sold homes for free before. [00:41:26] I mean, I don't love it. It's not what we're in business to do. But, you know, for instance, I always point to this one because it made sense at the time. But there was a guy moving from our area out of out of state to go start a church. He didn't. He needed some help. He wanted to sell his house and basically I couldn't make a commission. And he said his house is what it came down to. And I said, you know what? I'm just gonna take care of it. We're gonna we're gonna do it. We're gonna sell it for you. But what I need from you is I need a referral like this. That that will help pay me back. Since then, he sent me twelve. I love it. You know, I mean, that's just one of those things. I mean, I don't recommend selling homes for free for everybody. Obviously, we wouldn't be in business for long if we did. But at the same time, it was the right thing to do at that moment. I had no question about it. No. No care or concern. And since then, he's become just a great friend that I followed. And he's now moved out of state again to start another church. And, you know, I mean, I feel like, if nothing else, I was a very small part of him helping reach others for the Lord. And in south Alabama now, now he's out. [00:42:33] So my great job, I am someone I remember someone saying you can't you can never lend to the Lord. [00:42:43] Without getting a whole lot more in return, we don't you know, we don't give to get. But when you give from the heart, you can never be. [00:42:51] It's always in your life is the way I look at it. So, I mean, I'm just doing you know, I'm just trying to show my thanks. [00:42:57] Yeah. Hey, let me ask you something else. And and I don't want to probe too deep that there's something there that you don't want to talk about. But it's an open ended question so you can do whatever you want to with it. [00:43:08] I know a lot of folks who so they they call themselves Christians. OK. They they are. They bash Christ into their life. But maybe their relationship with the Lord is just kind of part time or it's on the side or it's just something Sunday. OK. But they don't really focus on it. I get the impression that your relationship with the Lord is an everyday event and not just an everyday, but it's it's a part of who you are. Am I correct on that? [00:43:40] I would like to think so. I mean, obviously, I still say, like I said, I'm not perfect by any means. I mean, I have my my moments just like everybody else does. But I do try to make it a focus. No. I can always do better. I think we ought to know. But at the same time, I try to try not to just let it, but to show it, you know, and at least try to at least try on a daily basis to do that. [00:44:07] Well, I wanted to say if because, you know, we go through struggles in life all the time and, you know, this is as humans and as Christians. [00:44:17] Is there anything, anything that you can share that you like to share where maybe you or your family went through some sort of tough, challenging times, things that were nerve wracking? Anything that may wear. You can see God's hand really involved. That would just be an encouraging story. [00:44:40] You know, I have. I think of this from time to time and you never know when you do it. I always said I feel like you never know when God's taking care of you until it's done. And then it's like, wow, you know, that was that was definitely God in that. I've got moments. You know, it's hard to just like recall. I mean, I know one of the things that, you know, my first home that I had. It was amazing. Very nice. We loved it, but it was not in the greatest neighborhood, you know. And it was just it was what we could afford at the time. I had my first daughter, and from there we knew that we needed to move just for safety reasons and stuff. I mean, I had a car broken into. Things like that. You know, it just we felt like it was the right place to go. So we my wife actually found a home that she loved while she was out one day. This is when I was working for the bank. I was even in real estate. So she's I come see this house. So I got off of one of them and looked at it. I'm like. Love the house, too. And we prayed about it. We thought we could make things work. And, you know, we. We made the decision to go ahead and do it. And then I realized that's when banking kind of started making some changes. [00:45:46] And I realized I had made some decisions based on bonuses that I was receiving, not off of my paycheck alone. And it was probably not the greatest business decision I could have ever made. Almost a little more expensive. And and it was just it was tough to make payments. But I was actually another bank called and offered me a job. And this was about thirty or forty five days later, you know, and again, we were just praying that we made the right decision. You know, this is what we've done. And we felt we needed to get out of that other other place because it wasn't necessarily a safe neighborhood. The other bank offered me the job and it was a 50 percent pay raise. But what's funny about that is the pay raise was exactly the difference in the mortgage payment from one else to the other. Oh, wow. This isn't this isn't coincidence. You know, I mean, and I've got dozens of stories like that, but like, I don't feel like it was a coincidental thing at all. I mean, it was it was dollar for dollar. The difference in the mortgage payment and the kind of the lifestyle difference there. So anyway, I mean, like I said, I've got I've got plenty of those. But, you know, we didn't we didn't need the bonus money anymore. You know, the the regular salary covered. So I love it. [00:46:58] Well, the Lord is good, isn't he? [00:47:00] Yeah. That's just one example that, you know, I guess I can I could give you many, but that one's the ones by one of my favorites. [00:47:07] I like that a lot. And kind of wrapping up. This has been really a lot of fun. I would love to delve a lot more into some things, but just kind of netting out what I've heard. OK. There just seems to be a reliance on the Lord with your business that he led you there for, you know, even before then with this house and this your new job that paid for, you know, pay for the increased mortgage, you're trying to follow him and you're not doing a perfect job. I get that. In fact, I was just reading in Romans 7:00 this morning where Paul is talking about you got the law of God, which is spiritual, the law of the flesh, which is contrary, and that the sin in me does the things that I don't want to do. So there's constant, constant struggle. Absolutely. And yet you follow the Lord's leading and to real estate. And he gave your wife a wonderful piece about it that surprise you. And he started to bless you. And I think that, you know, a lot of these blessings you guys have had has to be because the Lord has chosen to bless you. He's put you there for a reason. And and to add to that. [00:48:27] It seems like every time I follow what when my wife has a piece about something, it's the right thing to do. I've learned that over time, you know, there's God gives us to help me, as he says in the Bible. So, you know, I mean, she she she is definitely a great partner for life for that kind of stuff, because she gets this pace. And I'm like, well, if you're comfortable, I'm comfortable. You know, I feel like I followed that, that God, every time that works and is. [00:48:54] You're saying how the Lord uses different people in our life to direct us in his will? [00:49:01] Yes. Well, this is really cool. Is there anything else that you'd like to share either on business or personal or spiritual? [00:49:09] Before we close up, I'm nothing I can think of. I'm I'm an open book. I love to share and say anybody has questions. I'm always up for answering them. You know, I get calls from time to time from people that have talked to you. They want to. Want some feedback. I love getting those calls and hand on that and giving you a good testimonial. You've always been great to partner with for us. [00:49:31] I appreciate that. [00:49:33] Hey, I don't do this on these calls, but and I don't know if you're wanting to offer this because this will be out there for a long time. Are you offering that? People can call you. And if so, we can have you tell, you know, how to reach him or. [00:49:51] Yeah. Absolutely. I'm always open for having the conversation. If I can help somebody, I'd love to. So. OK. Wonderful. [00:49:57] So how did they reach out to you? [00:49:59] If they want help in business or help with just maybe they want to apply, you know, serving the Lord and really following them a little bit closer. And they want to talk with you about that. How did they reach out to you? [00:50:14] They can call or e-mail. And I don't know if you can if you can post the information on their phone numbers, 2 0 5 7 0 6 5 2 6 0 email address. Is Josh Josh for an income? [00:50:26] Ok. That's pretty simple.

Are you one of those perfect people who never hits the snooze button, never has a bad attitude or never misses a workout? Really? No complacency? Never been in a rut? If so, you can skip this message… Obviously, nobody is going to skip this message so read on because this email is for you (and especially me)! Since you’re still reading, I’m assuming you’re like the rest of us humans, and subject to distraction, fatigue and stale routines. We’ve all been there, and even the best of us occasionally need a change of pace or a new twist to an old routine. That’s why, in today’s message I’d like to gift you with 10 strategies I use to break out of the funk and get reinvigorated for my next workout. Surround Yourself with Motivation - for me, I live and die by my calendar. In fact, this is the first question I get as soon as I wake up. “Are you going to do what it takes to become the man you need to be to support those who believe in you?” Literally can’t go 1 hour without a reminder as to why I should be doing what I’m doing. Get Your Clothes On - My wife would argue that ALL of my clothes are “workout clothes”, but since she ain’t writing these emails, you get to hear my side. Okay yes, it’s true that I only wear Nike Dri-Fit shorts and Nike joggers but t night, the idea is to put your workout clothes on (including your socks). The trick to making a good habit stick is to reduce friction and make it as easy as possible for you to say yes. Bargain with Yourself - Here’s a powerful tool--I don’t love running, but going ONE MILE is no biggie. So… I bargain that I’ll just run one mile. Sometimes that’s all I get and that’s okay. Other days, I WANT go further, sometimes I go much further...but that would never happen if I didn’t start with the one mile. Visualize two versions of yourself, the one you are today and the one you believe is capable of CRUSHING your current goals in their sleep. Ask yourself what is that other person doing behind the scenes to effortlessly do the things you’re struggling to do? Create Reward Systems - We’re wired to desire rewards. Instead of telling yourself you’ll get a huge reward after dropping 20 lbs, breaking that big reward up into 10 mini rewards will give you momentum. Get an Enthusiastic Partner - This can be a challenge, but worth a couple efforts to get right. Most collaborations I’ve encountered result in a multiplication of effort, not addition. In other words, 1+1=3! Our Limitless Athletes community on Facebook is a GREAT place to find accountability partners. Change it Up - New gym, new route to drive there, strawberry shakes instead of vanilla… tweak and change your routine and find new energy available to you. Revenge… I know this is childish, but if your ex called you fat, why not use that as a motivation to say, look at me now! Revenge doesn’t always have to be confrontational. I myself was severely bullied until I picked up a dumbbell. Stay Youthful! Especially if you have kids, imagine how you’ll look in 10, 20 or 30 years. Will you be able to play with them, or will you be in a hospital bed, or worse? Remember, the more you do something, the easier it becomes so I’d encourage you to do more of whatever it is that makes you feel ALIVE. Compete EVERYDAY - track and compare PRs, supplement your individual heavy sessions with a weekly visit to the crossfit gym. Just remember, the only competitor that matters is the one staring back at you in the mirror. What's getting you going?

Welcome back to Applied Curiosity Lab Radio. I love this week's Curiosity Bite on ACLR: How often is there really no other explanation? Think about this as a strategy in your work.

We like to think our Science Focus Podcast is something really rather special (really, you should tell all your mates about it). But let’s face it, it pales in comparison to the hugely popular podcast No Such Thing As A Fish, which bagged Apple’s prestigious ‘Best New Podcast’ award in 2014.Numerous awards later, including the 2019 Heinz Oberhummer Award in science communication, they have amassed a whopping 700,000 subscribers for their irreverent podcast about the weird and wacky things they’ve discovered over the past week.We can’t resist the opportunity to get meta and do a science podcast about doing a science podcast, so we sent Online Editor Alexander McNamara to meet two of the show's stars, Andrew Hunter Murray and Dan Schreiber, where they chewed the ‘facts’ about Isaac Newton lecturing to empty theatres, meeting scientists who suggest putting fake eyes on a cow’s backside, and the logistics around building a statue out of sausages.We also put their fact-checking skills to the test with a little quiz pulled from the Q&A section of BBC Science Focus Magazine. Why don’t you play along as well and let us know how you get by tweeting us @sciencefocus.Please remember to rate and review our show wherever you download your podcasts from.Listen to more episodes of the Science Focus Podcast:Do you believe in magic? – Gustav KuhnWhat happens when maths goes horribly, horribly wrong? – Matt ParkerWhat does it mean to be happy? – Helen RussellInside the mind of a comedian – Robin InceFinding the fun in science – Dara Ó BriainThis is how to invent everything – Ryan NorthFollow Science Focus on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Flipboard See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

RETURN TO THE MOTHERLAND! I am in Gambia, West Africa this episode! I give you a little insight to Gambian culture, and how every day is a party, whether it's a wedding, funeral, or Sunday dinner. I talk about feeling depressed every time I leave Gambia and return to the U.S. This episode I interview my cousin, William Joiner, and we talk about BODY IMAGE! He chats with me about how being picked on as a kid for being the "chubby kid" affects him today, and his struggles with negative self-talk. We also talk about emotions, and how it's NOT acceptable to show them in Gambia, or else...what the hell is wrong with you? Oh, and uh as long as you have a roof over your head, food to eat, and family...you couldn't possibly have anything to worry about! "You'll be fine". Who would've thought the stigma surrounding mental illness in the U.S. would be so similar in Gambia?Follow William on Instagram at @_joinersquad

In our last +1 we talked about the fact that, as per legendary tough guy Vince Lombardi, “Fatigue makes cowards of us all.”    Then we operationalized a super-simple antidote to cowardice via a super-simple PM Bookend routine. (How’d that go for you?)   I mentioned the fact that we’d connect that fatigue-coward phenomenon to my heart rate monitor. So, let’s.   Not too long ago, I introduced you to my Suunto watch. Love it. Works great.    … Except when it doesn’t!   Every once in awhile, I’ll be training at a mellow pace and my watch will be telling me that my heart rate is WAY higher than it could possibly be.    To put it in perspective, my target Maffetone-approved aerobic zone is 131 to 141. I usually train in that zone every other day. On my mellow recovery days, I do the same trail at a slower pace and stay well below that 131.   So, imagine my surprise one day when I’m going at a super mellow pace and look down at my watch to see it telling me that I’m at 160-something. I’m like, “Really? No way. That’s not possible. I’m pretty sure I’m not blowing up right now.” (Hah.)   So… I got my strip detector things a little wet via a little spit. Didn’t help. I took off my heart rate monitor strap. Put it back on. Still didn’t help.   I’m basically standing still and it’s telling me I’m still blowing up.   Hah! D’oh.    Hmmmmmm…   Now… As a Professional Optimizer/Lover of Wisdom, I’m not allowed to waste lemon squeezing opportunities so, after a moment of almost-frustration I carried on with my hike and decided to simply ignore the data.   Which is when the metaphorical learning moment hit me.   That data from the heart rate monitor was, for whatever reason, literally USELESS for me during that workout.    So I ignored it.   Guess what?   You know that voice in your head that shows up when you’re tired?    You know, the voice that says: “Life sucks boo hoo yada yada yada blah blah blah. Etc. Etc. Etc.”   Guess what?   When you’re tired, that “data” your mind throws at you is about as useful as my broken heart rate monitor.   IGNORE IT.   Carry on with your day.   Go build your Emotional Stamina muscles as you execute your protocol and practice having good bad days. Then figure out what “Needs work!” so you can wake up tomorrow feeling WAY better—with a working monitor that gives you good data.   That’s Today’s +1.   Happy Trails!

You've probably seen the recent headlines like, "No Amount of Alcohol is Safe" or "Why Any Levels of Alcohol is Bad for You." They've been popping up a lot recently, in part because it's a drastic shift from the conventional thinking that a small amount of wine each day could actually be good for you. In today's episode we take a look at the recent studies, and examine what they mean for our health (and our drinking habits).

Science is building an impressive toolkit that is enabling us to fight back against Evolution’s darker urges. How? It’s time to Mattsplain.Episode Excerpt:You made up a word for today’s show…•Yes. We’re all about the clickbait on this show.•Hold tight for 7 reasons why evolution will kill you.Really?•No, of course not.•But we are talking about evolution. We're going to talk about the ways that Evolution targets us and some other ways in which we are starting to fight back.You’re not going to talk about the giant ants again are you? I keep telling you that Them! is a 1950s B-movie not a documentary…•You clearly don’t spend enough time on the Internet.•Look at the way that the local wildlife population has survived the Chernobyl disaster.•Is it really so far-fetched that radioactive tests after WW2 resulted in giant ants that roamed the New Mexico desert neighbouring towns?•You’ve got to start thinking more clearly Jeff. Forget your obsession with the lamestream media.•Take off the blinkers, open up your mind.I’m not hopeful about today’s show. When Charles Darwin wrote the Origin of species, do you think he ever imagined, well, you?•Darwin was oddly interested in finches and pigeons.•My face is often recognised as kittens by AI but I think I’m probably a fair distance away from what he imagined as natural selection.Does Unnatural selection exist? You may be a prime example.•As with a lot of things in life: only in Star Trek.•One of the early episodes of Star Trek TNG – Season two, I believe–featured a bunch of genetically altered children whose immune systems altered the environment around them and caused normal humans to rapidly age and die.•And of course that’s the easiest way for one species to conquer another.•Not with anything so complicated as war, but by infecting them with pathogens that they can’t fight.

How should I plan my days? How should I prioritise? Time is money. Really? No, time is more valuable than money, because we will never get it back. So how do we decide where to spend it on? This episode discusses how to set priorities and how to make the most out of your day. As Allah swears by time, we are at loss: وَٱلْعَصْرِ إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لَفِى خُسْرٍ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ By time, Indeed, mankind is in loss, Except for those who have believed and done righteous deeds and advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience. [Surah Al-Asr

Simon Butcher's message from Sunday morning 17th June

Hey, hey. Welcome to the live stream. Okay, small problem. That's not the problem. This hair's definitely a problem. Its become a kind of terrible balayage situation. Don't worry. The amazing Hailey will fix it on Tuesday. I will look blonde and fabulous again. Hmm, here's my problem. It's what is commonly referred to as a cushion problem, meaning I have not enough cushions. One second. I definitely have enough lights. You should see the lighting situation here. I'm like the princess and the pea. Hi Liora, hi Melissa, hi Anna. Look at my situation. Hang on. Can you see all these cushions? There's like four of them there now. I must sit on mini cushions. Bop. No need to manifest the perverts in, Branden Marshall, Lily Lucia, hi. Hi, Susan, hey Anna Shelley. Who else is there? Hi, Debbie. Hi to all the queens who are here with me on the live stream. And, so far, one king that ... Okay, there's another one. Hey, Trent. Yeah, it's in the middle. I wanted it bottom right. Calling Bronwen Kelly, Bronwen Kelly to the live stream. Why is my banner in the middle? I don't know, I just like to mess with people, you know. Not even on purpose, it just seems to happen. It seems to be part of my nature. I nearly didn't go live, because apparently, according to my daughter, my eyes look scary. There they are. She said my eyeliner's terrible. I said, I'm channelling Kelly Renny, which is a compliment, by the way. The thing is, though, I'm having some bizarre allergic reaction right now, and my eyes are ... Okay, I'm going to give myself permission to pick bits of myself apart, and I might be making it up in my head, or maybe you're just agreeing with me, and you're like, look at those squinty little eyes. My eyes feel super squinty and little right now. Are they? Are they squinty and little right now? Can you tell me? Because, I don't know if I'm imagining it, or if they are. But, they feel tiny in my head. Like disgusting little pea eyes, and my face is puffy and a bit swollen and I'm having an allergic reaction to something and I'm shaky. I look hot. Well, that's because of all the lighting. There's an entire studio of lighting on me right now. Thank you for saying ... I carefully chose everything, you guys. I put my warning, I don't really care, T-shirt on, because I feel like that could be relevant to what we're going to talk about. I enhanced my breasts with my mind, which just means posture. Then we have pinkness here and ocean there. So, I thought about every part of it. But I still need a [inaudible 00:03:19] because I feel weird, I'm all shaky in my head, and I'm shaking in my hands. I've got that feeling of, it's a histamine reaction. You know that histamine feeling? I hate it. I'm trying to figure out why I've got it. What was I eating last night on the flight home? I just flew home last night with my children, to Australia. I've only spent 36 hours in Australia in the last three months. I'll be here now for like ... Thank you ... I'll be here now for, I think, 16 days, and then I go back to Bali, and then I'll come back for two weeks. Then, I'll be in America again for a month, from middle of June. We've got my inner circle retreat happening early July in ... Thank you, Trent ... Early July in Los Angeles. If you have been meaning to join me in a circle. Wow, it really is right in the middle of the screen. Okay, that's fine. Then, just message me about the inner circle. I think it was because I, do you think you can have a fucking allergic reaction from a single fig? I get a reaction to foods with histamine in them, so certain wines, but definitely dried fruits, right? I had a dried fig on the plane from my daughter's cheese platter. Surely, that can't be enough for me to have this, I can really feel it. Thank you for saying I look hot, I appreciate it. I receive it, but I feel weird as fuck. I definitely need to get sweaty again. I already worked out, I got to go sweat again. We are gonna do this topic, we're gonna do this conversation. Are you excited for this conversation? The more you be you, the more you get paid to be you. Ah-ha, send me love heart shower if you like it, if you think it's a good topic. Maybe it was cheap wine. Maybe Virgin is serving up the wine with more preservatives in it. Because, if I drink wine with more preservatives in it, I get this reaction for sure, I don't know. I don't know, but what I do know is, after I do this, I'm gonna go to the gym in my building and sweat it out again. Even though, I was just at the gym two hours ago. But, I'm gonna cleanse my system. Cleanse my system of the pea eyes and the puffy face. Whether or not yous guys can see it, I can fucking feel it. Also, I'm gonna eat all the green vegetables. All right, now you're all caught up to speed on what's happening with me. I'm not entirely sure why this banner is right in the middle of the screen, but it's attention getting anyway, so that's never a bad thing. I'm feeling super excited to be in my favourite pink chair. I must admit, I'm not in love with being on the Gold coast, which sounds terrible. I'm super happy to be back, and see some of my bestest friends in the world, like the amazing Kelly Renny, and Matt Miller, and my sister. I could have put her first, couldn't I. Well, she's priority number uno anyway, I'm gonna go see her tonight. My sister just moved her while I was away on the other side of the world, she just moved to where I live, from the other side of the country. I haven't visited her house yet or anything. So, we'll do that tonight. I've been having this conversation with, all right, I'm just side tracking all over the place. Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry. Did you guys even give me love heart shower for the topic? Because, I feel like I didn't see it. But, that might be, because I was busy sharing shit over here. Send me more love hearts, because I enjoy to look at them. I did see some flying Katrina's. When is the inner circle meet up? It's gonna be July 11 and 12. I haven't decided the exact venue yet, we are in discussion. Yes, you could have red fern, John, probably preferable than a pink one, but I guess you could have pink if you really wanted to. I like the pink. It looks like a green screen behind me, doesn't it? That's the actual real ocean right there. Oh my God, I've got the funniest little clip on my phone from dinner a few weeks ago, Dallas, of Ryan Steuben explaining the difference between the ocean and the sea. It made no sense at all, but it made all the sense in the world. I definitely should share that later. That just reminded me of that. Hey, hey, Wendy. Somebody said to me yesterday, one of my friends said to me yesterday on an audio, that I blow his mind with some of the simplest stuff I've said, or I guess he asked me a question about when I switched into being ... I want to hear Patrick as Ryan Steuben explaining it, oh, well tag him in there, tag him in, and we can add to the live stream and explain it himself. I wonder if you can add people when you've done it on your Facebook create a page, as opposed to on your personal page. You'd have to tag him and tell him what you need and require though. Otherwise, I'm sure I can make that happen for you at some point in time. I definitely do have him doing an impression of Ryan, but that was in the live stream in the daily [inaudible 00:08:08]. All right. Always spot on to comments. Good, I try to be. What was I saying? Right, so my friend asked me, my friend Ryan, different Ryan. I actually have multiple Ryan friends. Two, just so you know, so no more Ryans can apply, that position is already filled, two is enough. One in Australia, whose basically like my oldest friend int he world, who I've known for nearly 20 years, and then the other one who everybody knows, Ryan Steuben. Many people in our own previous world though. Anyway, he messaged me and asked, when did I switch into being, or what was it that made me switch into being more aggressive Kat. He didn't say it with that emphasis, I just added that myself. It was, because I'd said something to him about, we were talking about can you swear, can you curse in the titles of books on Amazon, or in the books at all. I was like, well, I've definitely got it even in several of the titles of my Amazon books. But, I said, if you look through my earlier year ones it didn't have it all. But, that was because I wasn't really aggressive Kat then, I don't think I was really cursing in my messaging. I was the one who came up with the phrase aggressive Kat. My friends aren't just going around calling me aggressive Kat for the fun of it. Then, he said, a day or two later, must have thought about it, and he was like, "What was it that made you switch into being aggressive Kat?" My answer was really simple, I just looked at him and said ... Hello Terry, hello Tamara, hello Yara, hello everybody jumping on. Victory sign for you, not sure why, just came out that way, must be the fern. I said, I got fed up for not living for what's inside of me. I got fed up with not living for what's inside of me. That was my answer. I was just, you're walking along, you get a message on what's up, or whatever, and you just quickly answer it. But, I tuned in, and I gave, obviously, the real answer, and the correct answer. To me, that was a nothing answer. It was like, eh, I got fed up for not living for what's inside of me. Then, I think I wrote again and I said it was my, fuck this shit moment, right? I remember the fuck this shit moment. I've spoken about ti many times, many times. I think lots of people have a fuck this shit moment, and that was probably my biggest one. Where I was just fed up with myself. The aggression that started to then come out of me through my messaging is still part of my messaging to this day, and cursing a lot, and being like (roar). Well, that's obviously part of who I am, and (roar) and very, very aggressive, legitimately (roar). All right, I'll stop now. Wait, can't promise anything. Hey, Queen Rashida. All right the aggression that started to come through ... It is that kind of day, Molly, for sure ... That was, at first, I honestly think it was, because I was angry at myself. Have you ever felt ... Toby, what are the eyes for? Explain the mysterious eyes. Does that mean you can see all things, and you know all things? What do the eyes mean, we need to hear? Give a love heart shower you guys, or some flying creep Katrina's, which you use your stickers for, if you have ever felt so fed up with your own self not speaking your truth. I have a gentle soul. This is true, Gillian [inaudible 00:11:18], I am sending you all the love. Am I even saying your last name correctly? Do I even know how to say my own inner circle client's last name? Gillian put an amazing post up yesterday, about how she's building her million dollar business, and the energetic shifts that have happened since she began working with me in the inner circle, which was only about four or five weeks ago. I remember you messaged me, okay, don't worry, don't worry, well get back onto the point of the point. You make a creepy Katrina reaction ... This is about the weirdest question I've ever received. You make a creepy Katrina reaction by, you press the sticker thing that's just to the inside of the emoji list. Something like that, I don't know, somebody explain it. Figure it out amongst yourselves. Gillian messaged me, I was in the coffee line at the frigging Disney resort. My creative control manager, Bronwen Kelly, made me the creepy Katrina's. She's also the one who made me the Katrina Ruth Show banner. They're not supposed to be creepy. What are these? Oh, does it say press play? What's happening? Does it say 1%, can somebody screen shot this, my mind is expanding right now, you guys. These are all new. There's little pink 1% signs coming up. Keep them coming, just keep sending them. Be trigger happy on the button. I want all your fingers wearing out, just like push, push, push, just keep pressing play on that button. There's a flying Katrina, there's another one. I don't like that one with her back to me. I don't care for that. Branden, get on your phone right now. No playing with the emojis without prior supervision or permission. I'm so not, I'm high on life, I'm high on the throne, 1%, amazing. Amazing. All right, let's go back to Gillian, and then let's go back to the topic after that, because we're getting to the topic. I feel that I'm doing a fabulous live demonstration of how to be yourself anyway. We're getting somewhere with that. I'll sell you, you got to be ... Thank you, Lily, I try to be hilarious. Send some laughing emojis, because they're my favourites, they really are. I like to be in my entertainer mode. You know we're [inaudible 00:13:26] starting this week. I've got to start now, before I go all shenanigans, and it's my six week one-on-one. Message me please, if you've been thinking about working with me one-on-one. I would love to give you all the detail, and the uber view, everything, understanding, and talk with you about whether it's for you. Gillian started, so just message me on my personal page, preferably please. Oh my God, the 1% sign, it's the best thing I've ever seen. Best. Actually, one of the best things that I've ever seen is, my Instagram finally lets me use different font on the stories now, believer, first thing's first, gonna say what I want duh-duh, gonna say all the words inside my head. Shall we sing it for a little bit. I think so, Bronwen Kelly, was being informed that the banner is the middle of the screen. The middle, the middle, you understand? I think we're gonna have a small breakout for song, then I'm gonna go back to the Gillian's [inaudible 00:14:23] story, and working with me, and the energetic upgrades and shifts, and haven't your best, biggest month ever without even doing any fucking thing, and vibrational shifts, and making money for being you, and message me about [inaudible 00:14:33], and I will also discuss the conversation that we said we're gonna discus. I'm not quite sure what it was now. Making money being you, we're coming back to that. We're coming back. Everybody breathe, it's under control. We need to listen to this though, just for a moment. Because, I want to do a new about page on my website, and I'm gonna do ... I'm not supposed to tell you guys this, because I think it's the funniest, most hilarious idea that ever existed in the history of time, and I'm giggling, giggling, giggling to myself about doing it. But, now I'm telling you, but only some people will know. But, it's gonna be a mashup of all these different songs. We'll start with this, with the words from this, ready? Facebook, just what's happening, is it not working. No, no, go away YouTube, we don't want you. What is happening? Why? Reload, fuck your reload. This must not be meant to be. Okay, YouTube Believer, Imagine Dragons. You've got to listen to just the start of this song, because actually it's so on point for the topic of conversation. You had a feeling was gonna do something weirdo, but I love the 1% stickers, and I don't mind it being in the middle, because I feel like its attention getting. But, maybe we can see if we can move it down. The whole conversation is about, the more you be you, the more money you make. Is that what we called it, guys? What did we call it, what was the team decision on what this live stream was called? Let's check it out. Then, I'm gonna ... The more you be you, the more you get to be paid to be you. Well, that was obvious, who would need to do a fucking live stream about it? Nobody needs to talk about that, that's just obvious. We established that, we'll just talk about whatever comes up. Gillian messaged me when I was in the coffee line at Disney. I feel like I don't need to tell you that whole story right now anymore. She knew it was time to go all in, in deeper way with what she was doing. She felt that I was the mentor to support her to do that. She joined the inner circle tout suite with very minimal conversation. That's how we do it. Then, do you know it continues to delight me, and to humble me, and awe me, that my clients just shift. It sounds egotistical, I feel a little self conscience to say it, but we've only had two phone calls, I think, in that time, in that four or five weeks. But, we've spoken on messages quite a bit, three reactions. This stupid audio doesn't want to play for me. It's clearly being a little bitch. We've connected back and forth on messages, and audios, and that sort of thing. She's just going up, up, up, up in her energy, and wrote an amazing post about it yesterday. What? It's just freaking stepping into fully being you, and backing yourself, and owning everything that's inside of you. I feel like I would have way more emphasis around that story if I had told it five minutes ago when it was coming through. But, it wasn't coming through then. Don't worry, we're gonna get to this song in a minute. It's only taking me that fucking long in order to get this stupid thing to load. Okay, ready. This is the way, that's gonna be the start of my new about page. It's so good, just wait. (music) First thing's first, gonna say all the words inside my head ... And tired of the way that things have been. Okay, now don't know all the words. Second thing's second, gonna eh-eh. Okay, I'm losing it. Okay, I felt like I could have kept up with the words, and it would have been amazing, and I didn't quite manage to do it. But, he says, first thing's first, I'm gonna tell you ... What did, okay, let me try one more time. First thing's first, I'm gonna say all the words inside my head. I'm fired up, and tiered of the way that things have been. Uh, ooh. I can't do the ooh bit. Second thing's second, don't you tell me what to think, uh-duh-duh-duh, I'm the master of my sea. If that's not the wording to start your about page with, then what is? Let's look up the lyrics, so that we're all clear. Believer, Imagine Dragons lyrics. You know what would be smart of me, if I would have played the version that shows the lyrics on the screen, and you guys would have been like, wow, she's so on it. First thing's first, I'm a say all the words inside my head. I'm fired up, and tired of the way that things have been. I've got to pee now. It's so good, so good, so good. If you don't listen to Imagine Dragons, I don't even know what you think you're doing with your life, frankly. But, I suppose you're fine. But, you've got to listen to the words of that song, and you've got to listen to Do What it Takes. It's gold, it's gold. If you have a hustle friend in your life, who's an adrenaline lover, who's a badass that just goes all in, and does the damn thing, you should send them this song. They are gonna love you for it. Then, you can send me a gift, P.O. Box 861 Surfers Paradise Queensland, 4217. Then, definitely Warrior. Let's hear a little bit of Warrior. Warrior, Imagine Dragons. Are you guys cool with this? Can we just do a little campfire session? Are you guys all right with it? I don't know why I keep getting away with putting songs on my live streams anymore, touch wood. Here's some, okay. I think it's, because Mark Zuckerberg loves me. It's only normal. But, it adds value, why would you not be allowed to do it? I really like what I've heard from Imagine Dragons. You've got to dig deep into Imagine Dragons. You've got to dig all the way. No, go away with the ad, we don't care with the ad. I love this Warrior song, but probably Do What it Takes is the best one you've got to go listen to that. I love this, because they, it talks about how we always knew that we'd be the ones who (music) ... Sweet child you will play and wash the fire away. You always knew you could be the one to work while they all play. Hmm, hmm-hmm. Of all the things that you would change, but it was just a dream. All right, we've got to stop. We better stop, we're gonna get in trouble. Somebody's gonna tag Marky-Mark in. Tag Marky-Mark in, that'd be awesome. Okay, here's the deal, right, my friend said to me, how simple some of the stuff that I say to him is, or how simple the most powerful stuff, I guess, that I say to him is, and how it just blows his mind. Because, it's like, I guess, and then we got into a conversation about it yesterday, and we were both going back and forth, and just discussing the awesomeness of what we both put into the world, obviously, just in a normal fashion. But, talking about how, well, we both have a fitness background, we used to work in the gym together for years. He and his wife are still that's their business, helping moms to get into amazing shape, and doing the inner transformational work around that as well. We were talking about how, people just tend to think and assume that, whether it's in business, whether it's with money making, whether it's with fitness, whether it's with love and relationships. It's the other area that I keep talking about all the time at the moment. People tend to think and assume that it's the really complex stuff that's gonna get the results, right? So, I ... Did somebody just, was there somebody there for a second. Ah Mummy I think I'm imagining things. I think I imagined a small beast. A little curly headed beasty. We're just getting into the freaking sermon. Okay, I'm gonna carry on, because I want to do this, and I'm not gonna be distracted, I will not be. Yes, you're hilarious, now everybody's more interested in you than me. Go, go play, I'm gonna do my sermon. Go. No. All right, people think, and this is what we were talking about. People think that the experts, or the gurus are holding, right. Reserving, and holding a secret from them. It's like, that we've got the real answer, and that if you join the right programme, or if you pay enough money, then you get the secrets, and then you get the answer. Hello. But, to get the amazing results ... I'm laser focused, you guys, laser focused. Hello. To get the amazing results. Hello. Hello. Hello, go, go sing a song in the library. No. Awe, oh, thank you Gillian. Hello, hi-o, hi-o. Yes, if you buy ... Well, people who buy from you, actually this is a good little exercise while I am a little distracted. If you buy from me, and you've bought from me, straight up, tell me what is the reason that you've bought from me? Maybe, sometimes you didn't want to know the content of that particular course, but what's the first answer that comes to mind- Mommy? ... As to why you've bought from me. Hey you, hey you. Hello. Whether it's in an online programme, or as a high level client, in rich on empire, or even in the inner circle with any of my other inner circle bad asses are here. I know Gillian just signed off, and gave a cool little shout out there saying, definitely join. Yeah, so I'd love to know, and it something to think about for you as well. Wendy says the energy. It's a good thing to think about, why do people buy from you. Energy, cool, all right. But, yeah, people tend to, I think we all tend to still assume that there's some sort of magical missing link that we don't know. But, really, in all areas, it's the simple stuff that gets the results, right? My friend had asked me, why did I switch to being more aggressive Kat, and I was like, because I got so sick of not living for what's inside of me. Then, I started to do that, right? Which, was my F this shit moment, basically. Because, I started to do that- Hello. And to fully live for what's inside of me. Things started to blow up. Oh my God, you're literally spurting on me. I see that you're trying to get attention, and you're doing a really good job of it, but mommy's in her A game zone, all right? Connection, energy to level up, wanting to be more badass says Kat, Lilly says wanting to be like me. Which, by the way, also just means, being what's inside of you, right? If anyone resonates with the idea of wanting to be like me in some way, then that's because you see it inside of you. Nothing's happening here at all. There's nothing to laugh about or look at. What was Branden's comment, I want to go back to it? Where is it? I bought, because I want next level energetic shit, and most personal custom tailored help. Yes, trust you says Grace, Aligned discipleship. Christine says energy completely resonated. Whoa, and I wanted to do one of your previous courses [crosstalk ] Go put a movie on. I wasn't lined up to that. Get Alissa to put a movie on for you, and watch out for those cords, honey. Once I do do that, I can't read the rest of that, I'll read it later. Alyssa's whispering to you over there, go put a movie on. Hey, gorgeous, says Mandy. That wasn't a questions, but thank you. Hello, hello. How to get in touch with your inner truth and speak that shit to the world. Resonation, okay, I'm gonna read all these comments later, so thank you so much. Keep putting them in. Then, ask your audience to send feed, by the way. It's definitely a cool thing to ask. Then, you can screen shot it, and put it on your sales page if you wanted to. Bossiest, bossiest boss. Bye, Mommy. I hate you. Oh, lovely. I love you anyway. I hate you. I don't believe you, little monkey. All right, go watch your movie. Well, whose gonna help me? Alyssa Rose Loterzo, that's who. Me. There she is, there's more of them, they're everywhere. But, it's fabulous. He's now upside down on a chair, and now she picking him up, upside down, which seems like a very smart idea for an eight-year-old to pick up a four-year-old by the legs, and then carry him upside down. A certain type of sexy, savage, badass femininity. Man, I want to change that on my profile. Currently it says, Katrina Ruth is a state of mind at the Katrina Ruth Show on my personal profile. Just put it on for him. I'm gonna change it to a certain type of sexy, savage, badass femininity. That's amazing. But, I like the state of mind thing as well. Okay, you broke my sparkly cushion you little monsters. Don't turn my lights off, everyone will see the real me. Because, it's time to press play, and go all in, says Tracy. Lights on? All of them, please, turn them back on. Thank you, on. No, no, no, you can break that, be careful, honey. He turns the lights off, and then just leaves, just leaves. Who raised these children? All right, I've got to turn that light on, you guys, it's gonna mess with my savage, sexy, femininity badassery. Not really, but I still want it on. Awe, now it's dead. It's dying a slow death. He knocked it down. Oh, shit, all right. Okay, here we are. We got through it as a team. Well done, you guys. Sometimes I just let them takeover. Not today, my friends. I've already spent all morning doing shenanigans with them. This is my shenanigan time. My children will not disrupt it. Well, they can disrupt, and I will just carry on as I please. So, when I made that switch to acting and living for what was inside of me, and if you've jumped on late, you missed the singing around the campfire section. You missed, I don't know, whatever else you missed, but mainly, the singing was my favourite piece, to be perfectly honest with you. You should watch the replay, but there was definitely some other gold in there. When I make that switch, and I really was just like, warning, I don't really care anymore. People say I don't give a fuck all the time, which is roughly what this T-shirt says. It says, warning, I don't really care. It doesn't say I don't care anymore. But, at the time, I could have said, warning, I don't really care anymore, and do you know I did not even put this T-shirt on with that wording in mind for this live stream? Mind blown, expanded, expanded, right? When I made that switch to, I don't give a fuck, I'm gonna say what's inside of my head ... First thing's first, I'm a say all the words inside my head. I'm tired up and duh-duh. Yeah, what we did before, that exact song. Oh my God, how on point was this whole live stream you guys? It's all just flowed together. That's when I started making millions of fucking dollars online doing what I love, and having only sold my clients having all the money, even though I didn't even ask them to, and they just come out of nowhere, like Gillian, and they're just like, I'm gonna pay you whatever it is that I have, let me in, let me in, let me in. Then, they expand their results, and have their best month ever, and then they just post about it, and tag you on freaking Facebook, and then tell people about it. You're just like, I was just having a massage and being myself. Seriously, that is exactly how it's done. Can we clip that piece out and caption it? It would have to be fast captions. But, honestly, I'm just like, it just gets better, and better, and easier, and easier, only with my soulmate clients, who just level up like bad asses. I'm gonna say it, from being in my energy space, from being in the vibration of this whole shindig, and the way that I shop, and the way that I put the work in, and the way that I press play, and the way that I kick their ass into alignment, and massive fucking action, and/or whatever it is I need, and I reach into their souls, and I grab them by it, and shake it up, put some cinnamon on top. It's very good for insulin mitigation. Makes it taste good. I'm talking a little louder, because I feel that my children might be trying to kill each other in the other room. Then, I remind them of who they fucking are, and largely the reminder ... Nevermind, they're in the other room ... Largely the reminder for them of who they are is, me being who I am, right? Me steady in my power like a lighthouse. Like a pink queenly lighthouse. I don't have to do anything, the lighthouse is not out therein the freaking ocean trying to pick up sinking sailors. The lighthouse is standing strong on the shore, being a goddamn lighthouse, right? I'm a talking empress, says Wendy. We're gonna assume she means fucking, but we'll go with talking, because it sounds better. At least it's not ducking. We're all so done with ducking face. We're done with it. We're done with it, nobody in the history of time every tried to say, I really ducking want. Maybe they did, no need to prove me wrong, right? If you're a lighthouse whose out there swimming with bedraggled hair, and weird lighthousey arms, and trying to pick up sinking sailors from in the ocean, well, you're acting like a tugboat. Exactly, John, write a children's book about a cute little tugboat, and then make some fucking money on Amazon, don't be a tugboat. If that's what you're doing, okay, Wendy's getting it. She's getting it gradually. I'm laughing, because it's so me. Then, you misunderstood what it means to be a lighthouse, flashlight, work of flesh, revolutionary fucking leader, 1%, within the 1% badass mother fucker, whom people pay just to be in the energy of. So, I think you should think about that, a lot. Then, ask yourself how you're showing up. If we go back, back, back, back, back, back, back in time to that moment when I was just like, I am done with this shit. I'm done with not living for myself. I think, do you think that maybe me being in my own throne has given me some sort of high vibes, because something it coming out of me that I didn't even know was quite in there? Maybe it's the histamines from the dried fruit. Maybe it's I twist my brain, maybe it's do it to my brain a little bit. We go back to that moment. I was just fed up. I was just freaking fed up with myself. I was bored to boredy boredom with my own self. I could not even stand to look at my own self in the mirror. Well, that was more of a self worth issue anyway. But, I was just like, meh. I didn't feel fulfilled, I didn't feel proud of myself, is the word that I'm looking for. I was making money, and I was getting results for my clients, and I was known to a degree. Not to the level I am now, but I had a bit of a following, and a name, I guess. I'd been marketing online, but in the fitness industry for years, and then shifted over. I was doing all right, for sure, but I was annoying myself. Exactly, Andrew, I couldn't even stand the whole internal and external sight of myself. Actually, it did literally play over to other areas, because who knows, amens if you know, that when you're not in alignment with your own self ... Wouldn't it be cool if there was a mirror behind me, like when I do a live stream at the SOS hotel, and you sit at the desk, and they have a mirrored wall behind you. Then, when I do my hand gestures, which just randomly happen, you see all the mirror hands going behind me, and it looks lik octopus arms. By the way, this throne is supremely comfortable. If you ever come and stay with me, you may sit on my throne. We might sit here together, and live stream together. I couldn't stand the sight of myself inside or out. Because, I wasn't in alignment, it was travelling over into other areas. I was probably binge eating, and emotional eating. I was, of course, I was. What kind of probably? No probably about it, I was a freaking mess. Not really. I was still incredibly fucking successful, but I was not in flow. I was annoyed with myself. I couldn't stand the whole inside outside appearance of myself. I just was like, this is just bullshit, the whole thing was bullshit. I knew that I wasn't living for what I believe in. Hi, Lakisha. That I wasn't ... Lakisha sent me a singing birthday message on my birthday last year. Personalised to me, not like a uniform one that she sends to everybody. It was the very first interaction, I believe, we'd ever had, by the way, on the messenger. It was incredible, she's an amazing singer, among some things. Anyway, back to the story. Yes, everything was a mess. It was chaotic as fuck. Chaotic success says, John, exactly that. It's a weird place. I'm happy about all of it. I don't regret any of it. I celebrate every aspect of my journey, because it got me to where I am. But, gosh. I'm so fucking grateful to be where I am now. Yes, the makeup, thank you. Because, my daughter told me that my eyeliner looks terrible today. She was like, "That's not good." I'm so grateful to be where I am, and now I have clients who come on, some who are more stressed out than others when they start with me. But, often times, my clients are like me, three, four, five years ago. Kind of like, befrazzled and bedraggled, and bestressed. Bestressed, why not? I just like living reactively, and their successful, like they might already be making, 10, 20, 30K a month, or even more when they come to see me. But, why they go to at 100K a month, 200K, and beyond, or if they're starting earlier, they're getting that first 10K, 20K, or whatever, I have clients that start at all levels. From complete startup to even already doing over a million dollars. So, we try to impress for everyone, by the way, message me, message me, message me, we're gonna start this week. Six weeks one-on-one, you and me, build your low through to high end empire, so that you too can more than seven figures and beyond doing what you love. We will do all the how, and the strategy, and how to implement it, and bring end game on point, obviously. Message me on Katrina Ruth, not this one, the personal one, right? Why they get those fast results, why my clients get ships. Sometimes, by the way, a word of warning of truth. Sometimes before the shift into fabulousness, flow, and ease, you may indeed go through what is commonly known as being Bali fucked, except it will be Katrinaery fucked, and not in a ... Well, of course, it's in a good way. Nothing sexual about it, just to be perfectly clear. It shouldn't need to be said, but just in case, before the jokes come in. It means energetically, we're gonna put you in the blender, then we're gonna put the blender in the dish washing machine. Then, we're gonna put the dish washing machine in the [inaudible 00:38:15] washing machine, and put it on spin cycle. Then, when you come out, you're gonna go through your rounds, boom-boom-boom. Then, you're gonna get up, and you're gonna be like, oh my fucking God, I let go of all my shit. It was cleansed from me. But, while you're in that initial period, it might feel kind of fucked up, and you'll love it, by the way. But, it could be scary, but you'll love it. But, it might be extremely confronting, and you might lose your shit at me, and at the world, and you'll love it. I'm just letting you know that sometimes is a detox process emotionally, and internally, and spiritually, and hygienically, apparently with all that washing, before the flow occurs. Much like, if you'd been eating fucking shit for 40 years, and then you go on a cleanse, there's gonna be some shit come out, right? We all understand that. This is true in business as well. Don't imagine that it's all thrones, and unicorns, and la te da. Unicorns have pointy heads. You can get the pointy head of the end of the unicorn. You can't see how I'm sitting now, but it just made my posture look amazing. This is my new sitting position. I'm getting a fantastic groyne stretch, it's a great hip opener, and it's made me sit up really straight all of a sudden. I keep saying I'm manifesting bigger breasts, well this is part of it, posture. Plus it's also T minus 31 today. So the, whoops, hang on. Wait, hold up. Thank you, Lily. Sacrad medicine, I'm gonna add that to the other comment. I'm really gonna use that, it's very good. And Lily, you've known me for years, you know me well. Okay, okay, okay, the flow and ease thing. You've got to go through whatever freaking release you've got to go through to get to the flow and ease thing. I think that's obvious. We don't need to talk about several rounds in the ring, spin cycle, washing machine, hair dryer blown at you the whole time. I will give you fabulous wine though, if I happen to meet up with you in the middle of that process. And, I will listen to all your stories of how you got hashtag Katrinaery fucked. Probably shouldn't use that as a hashtag, but it's really the best description. Can somebody give me another description? Because, I use the term Bali fucked all the time. Everybody who knows about Bali, knows about Bali fucked. But, the other day I was on the phone, and he said, Bali fucked, and how good it is or something. I was like, no, no, no. Bali fucked means like, kind of getting fucked over. Like everything that could go wrong, feels like it is going wrong, and you can't even move, and then you're naked on the decking of your pool villa for an entire day in the foetal position. It's happened to me several times. You can't even move. He was like, "Oh, I feel like when you say Bali fucked, you meant like amazing." I'm like, well, that comes after the Bali fucked. But it means fucked up, that's what I mean by Katrinaery fucked. It's a great selling point for working with me. Wouldn't you just love to release all your shit though, and then you get to just mosey around on a throne all day talking about whatever the fuck you want. Then, people seem to want work with you. Isn't it a good example of being more you? I was so boring, I was so professional, and in a terrible way, because I didn't know how to be professional anyway. Because, I never actually was professional, or a professional. It was not interesting, and not professional, but I was trying to be professional, and roughly, my entire system for being a serious and professional business coach, was that I wore a very tight pencil pinstriped skirt, with a very fitted red blouse, and I looked amazing. I looked like a sexy Barbie doll model, who was gonna have sex with you in the office. I really did. But, instead I was a nervous wreck, and a mess on the inside, and having a meltdown, and the sweats basically, and an allergic reaction to my whole life. Not just to a freaking dried fig that I ate on a plane yesterday. It was hard, so hard, allergic to professional, exactly. It would help if knew how to do it, but I don't know. Nobody's professional, that is a true fact of life. Professional lunatic perhaps. Maybe that's what I am. Let me see where I'm gonna pick this story up. What do you feel is important right now? Tell me something. Say something. Because, I've lost several tangents, and I may not ever pick them up again. Okay, I've got something for you. The reason that it works so well, and you've got to think about this. The reason that I've built my business into multi millions is something that is not helpful, but I'll take it anyway. The reason that I've built my business into multi millions, and all the badass people, case in point, theses ones right here, shout out to you, and you, all of you. Especially, the ones who are pressing the 1% button, thank you for that. The reason is, because I truly decided, I don't really care. Okay, that hurt a little bit, a little too much. I didn't give a fuck at all, which means that I give so much of a fuck about my message, and my truth, however, I decided that I would go all in for what was inside of me, even if it never made me another cent. Ah-ha, who's done that, and meant it too? I fucking meant it. I did not try and make money from it. I was just like, fuck all of you all. I'm gonna say whatever I want, and you can all get fucked. That's when I started being super aggressive. Because, I think I was annoyed at myself so much, that I was being aggressive and ranting, sweary, but it was more at me, and even still if I'm particularly shouty, and I can be a little shouty. I think it happened once last year, for example. Then, it's maybe directed at me, mainly, not maybe, mainly, right? Because, I was just done, I was fed up with my own disgustingness. This disgustingness of not living in my truth. It was vial to see, and observe, and behold. Nobody liked it at all. Well, some people pretended to, but they were not the right people anyway. Because, if you were there as a soulmate badass person, you would have been like, look at this, and energetically picking me up. You would have been like, this is disgusting. Well, probably not, because some of you were there then as well. So, thank you, and I love you. I did, I was like you can all get ... I was honestly, I was so, I had to get into a state of aggression to speak my truth. All right, remind me to not throw my arm in the air with an open bottle of water when my laptop is sitting just there. Not a smart idea, perhaps. I had to, I had to, I had to, and I had to make a decision that I really and truly did not care if I never made another cent from it again. And, I meant it, I wasn't just saying it. Don't just say shit on the internet, make shit up on the internet and throw it at the world all you like. But, don't fucking say shit that you don't mean, and a counterpoint to that is, the flip side of it, the other side of the money making coin is, do say the fucking shit that you mean. Don't withhold your message, not in business, not in life, not in love, not with anything. Just say what you're feeling. Yes, it's freaking scary and vulnerable. I think I'm gonna send somebody a message, where I show them a few pages of journaling I did about them. That's gonna be vulnerable. I'm still a little scared. I've been thinking about it for a full day now. Absolutely outrageous, given what I did say in my own code of conduct that I published this morning on Facebook, where I said that I always, always do the action that I'm guided to do straight away. Well, I was partly empowering myself. The truth is sometimes I hesitate, and I don't want to. It's scary, and feel scared. I'm vulnerable. You know I'm gonna do it anyway. Might happen in a day. I don't know why, but why would you wait? Why would I wait? I should do it right now, but I can't. It's on the phone. I already took, I'm obviously committed, because I already took photos on my phone of the journaling pages. But, this is the phone I used, so I have a legitimate excuse to not be able to do it right now. Because, I'm living streaming on the phone, ha ha. Why would I wait two days to, why would you wait two days, or two months, or a fucking lifetime to get your message out into the world? I feel fully entitled to speak and preach about this relevant to business. It's exactly about him [inaudible 00:46:53] word for word. Release from, no it's not a release. It's a statement of facts. It's several pages of facts about my feelings, just in an informative, and helpful, and scary manner. Manifestation, is it manifestation? No, I feel that it's a statement of facts, as they stand about my own feelings. Well, you know that I will, especially now that I've fucking said it here. But, it, but I feel that I'm gonna remain in resistance around it, until tomorrow. I feel like I've already decided that. I feel that you should probably throw something at me, if you were here, but you can't, so ha ha. But, why would I do that, because every time I hesitate ... I can, I'm gonna kick my own ass, and I'm gonna do it hard, right? Now, I need to go in the fucking spin cycle. Because, every time you hesitate, you just like, meh, here's the abundant switch, here's he receiving switch, here's the freaking expansion switch, I'm gonna dial that sucker down. I'm just gonna turn it down. Then, you just like, down on the floor, where nobody can see you, and nobody cares, and you're sort of limp, and boring, and like a faded fake flower. Then, you wonder why the fuck nobody's commenting and liking on your shit, and buying from you on Facebook. How are they gonna see you when you're down there all faded on the floor. I'm just saying, right? Right. Here's what else, you can't screw it up being you. It is not possible, on the floor with one arm up, like hello Facebook, I'm still here, buy something from me. I'm interesting, I promise. If you come down here, I will probably do not much at all, except flounder around on the floor like a fish on the sand. Just kind of like floundering. Looking very unattractive, but I feel like I'm getting more attractive by the moment, because I'm having the best time ever. How are people getting cool cat emojis? Because, they're on their phones pressing the sticker. You press the little sticker on your phone, it's just to the inside of the other emojis. From now on, I want you to only use cat emojis, on the other people's live streams also, please. I'm not sure how to do that, figure it out amongst yourselves. What was I saying? Okay, it's not supposed to be about me. Nevermind me, you don't need to know about what I do or don't do in that particular situation. However, I did say in my journaling in my code this morning, in my code of professional conduct, professional, that I always take the action my soul tells me to take straight away. I don't know why I did that, it just came through. In fact, in fact, indeed, that is true. It is exhausting and disgusting to have one arm in the air. Well, I suppose it'd be more disgusting if you had a really hairy armpit, and you hadn't washed it properly. But, either way, it's disgusting, we all agree. So, you know the whole thing about, for real though. For real, let's just sidestep from my little area of resistance. Let's just step away, let's just pretend that didn't happen. Say whatever you want to say about it, I don't care, kick my ass. Bring it on, just hit me with it. Hit me with some 1% emojis to remind me who I fucking am, and to not live in fear, and you know that I won't, but it might still take me another day. Right, but why? Why would it take me another day? How many more days, weeks, months, lifetimes is it gonna take you to speak your truth? As I was saying, I'm very entitled and credible to speak on the topic of speaking your truth in business, and in money making, and in life, and in the love and romance area I'm getting there, I'm getting there like a freaking mother fucker. I'm speeding up every single day. You know it, I know it, we all know it, so let's all just deal with the fact that soon enough I'll be running a course on that too. In fact, I did already run love and acceptance last year. That was about self love and acceptance. Very powerful, thank you very much, for reminding me about my own course the other day, by the way, when I needed it. Hello. There's no Lego Ninjago. Hmm, then just watch another Lego movie. [inaudible 00:51:02]. Watch Scooby-Doo then. Scooby-Doo, it was not on. I don't know then. Figure it out, man. What are you gonna say? Here. Yeah, I know, you broke my little cushion, it's all right, I'll live with it. So, I did say in my code this morning, and it's true, but I'm still practising my code. I had to write the truth of what I'm stepping into, which I would say I practise pretty freaking on point, and like 100% of the time in my business, and I'm getting there, getting there, I am getting there. I'll laugh at myself, and I'll kick my own ass, or you can kick my ass too. But, you know I'm gonna do it. Kiss, kiss, mommy. He blurted right into my mouth, like right up in there. You know I'm gonna do it, and you know that most people would never do even 1% of speaking or living their truth, right? This is why they don't get paid. Kiss. Don't blurt on me. Plain kisses. Okay, go, and then go watch your movie. That's disgusting, man. [inaudible 00:52:09]. If you already know you're sending [crosstalk]. No, try sending it to ... One more. Are we done? Yes. Good, be on your way, thank you, I appreciate the love. Don't worry, I'm not just constantly sending my children off to watch movies. We did other things already, and we'll do more things later, won't we? We'll go play at Auntie Jessie's house. Are you done? Carry along, pass on by, go back to where you come from. Not this area. I just spit in your ear. Don't spit in my ear. Well, this is exactly my point, right? Oh my goodness, careful. If I come back to the business story, you're right, I will. You know what I'll do, I'll get off the live stream, and then I'll be like, er, fuck off, I hate all of you, I love all of you. Then I'll be like, eh, and I'll go through 25,000 things inside my head, and then I'll do what I always do, and I do, which is press freaking play anyway, and do the damn thing. My rule is very simple in business, and in lie. I've done this many times already. Many times in my personal life. Hi. When I feel called to say something that's scary, or confronting, or vulnerable, or revealing, that I kind of, I type it, I write it out anyway, which I've already done. Then, I sit down, I'm like no, no, no, no, no, no, and I put it into message, and then I do this little thing where I just press send, and I just go send, too late. Then, I quickly [crosstalk 00:53:49] leave the area. Because [crosstalk 00:53:53] if you need the computer after you send a message, then the [crosstalk 00:53:57] see you. My rule is that, if you I can't see them, they can't see me. If I shut the computer, they can't see me, and maybe it didn't happen. [crosstalk 00:54:08] this is exactly, okay, I cannot even handle a random question in the middle of all this. [crosstalk 00:54:16]. This is exactly how I did it with business, exactly. Where I just started to say what I really thought, and what I knew that people needed to hear, and then I would press, well, not send ... Well, if it was an email send, but press publish on the post on Facebook, and I would literally feel sick to my stomach, you guys. Just like, I'm going to die of exposure of the soul. Have you ever felt like you were gonna die of exposure of the soul? Can you go and get me a surprise? Can you go and find me a treat? Can you go find mommy a treat? Got it, can you go find me a treat? Can you go get something fabulous for me? Mommy, that's your party hat. Oh, cool, good. That's actually my megaphone. Shout! Watch the cords, be careful of the cords when you're moving around the area. I [crosstalk]. I would say things that were so confronting, and so scary, and I would write them in my blog. Then I would be like, I can't say that, and I still feel that way, by the way. Not as often as I used to, because I've gotten used to it. I'm used to speaking my truth, and living my truth, and getting the frigging results that I do accordingly. But, at first it was like what I'm demonstrating here. Where I'm like, oh, maybe tomorrow, maybe tomorrow, but then I would always do it. I really freaking did it right, and I do still do it in all these things. I'm squirming, and everything, and I'm like maybe tomorrow, because I'm like fear is still guiding me or ruling me, and I'm conscious of that, and so I'll do the damn thing. Then, I'll laugh at myself, like why did you need to take an extra day or two. But, I'm talking like two freaking days, right? How many people here are still not speaking their truth, when you heard me talk about this shit a year ago, two years ago, five years ago, whatever? When your soul has been telling you the whole time, get faster, and faster at speaking and living your truth, and the heavens will be opened onto you. Hopefully not in a Queensland tropical thunderstorm manner, because that shit is scary, right, but the money heaven. The people, to people, to people, your soulmate people will come. Okay, I was just trying to distract you. What is this disgusting, who brought this into my home. It wasn't me, gross. Nutri-Grain bar, it sounds vial. It's Nutri-Grains. Who bought that? Daddy. Right, yeah. When daddy come and stays here when I'm overseas, and he comes and looks after the kids. [crosstalk] Can you get me- I got you another water. Can you go upstairs and get me my favourite book from my bedroom. Which one, what colour is it? Pink. Pink. You're such a good boy, honey. All right. You're such a good boy, Mommy. Thanks honey. All right. Mommy's not a boy. I'm so smart. Just published and ran away, and hid for a day, says Tracy. It is effective. I've done that many times. Many times that I've published the most vulnerable, revealing stuff, I do just press post, and them I'm like, oh shit, I gotta hide from Facebook now for two days. Which, is exactly how I feel when I send a vulnerable message. I'm like, that's it, I'm out, I'm leaving the internet. I am done. I am switching this shit off. Turn the whole internet off, shut the laptop, because then they can's see you, that's only just safe. It's just like freaking safety first people, safety first. Then, eventually you're like, oh, I suppose I should go and look what happened over that. It's only going to serve you. It is only going to serve you to speak your truth. The truth will set you free, and we know this. We know it. However, maybe you speak your truth, and somebody's like, that's too much for me. I can't handle that, they leave out of your life. Maybe you speak your truth, and people on the internet are like, you're a bad person, or you're a bad entrepreneur, or I don't like you, or mean things, that are meaner than that, and you're willing to face up to that basically. Like, are you willing to accept that somebody might not like you, that you might get rejected, you might get "hurt." But, how will you hurt when you're owning your truth, and did you really freaking think you were gonna build a business, or a life, or a relationship that's not based on speaking your truth? Because, how the heck is that shit gonna work out, right? What kind of situation are you imagining you're gonna be living in? It sounds horrible, horrible. Horrible. Horrible. Here's a version that I prepared earlier, horrible. Ooh, a Nutri-Grain bar. Horrible. You're supposed to do it live. Not that. Say horrible into the camera. Horrible. Exactly, you can leave. Thank you for your assistance. Thank you. If you can't accept that, you can't have the success. Correct. But, it's also not true success, is it John, and everybody else? No. No, exactly. It's not success- Listen to me, mine- Give me, it's my sceptre, give it to me, give it. Get your own props, this is mine. My sceptre. Yes, have that riding whip. I don't even know why, fantastic. I don't, and keep the pot out of it, by the way. Pass over the Chanel hip flask, which nobody's ever seen, which my sister is even weirder than me, if you can imagine such a thing [crosstalk 00:59:30]. A funnel? That's red, see if you can find a pink one, honey. I can't. Okay, I love the red one then. Thank you, I'll take it. This is a funnel. Look at this Chanel hip flask that my weird ass sister, Jessa Lewis, made for me. [inaudible 00:59:47]. I don't want that yucky treat. Get me a different treat. I don't like that. [crosstalk 00:59:51] My sister is the business manager in my business. Mommy, I don't know which treat you want. Berries, bring me some berries little boy. That's not a treat. I like to sit on a chair and have berries delivered to me by a miniature man. Yes she does. Mommy, there's no berries. They're in the fridge, go check it out. See if there's anything you want in there. Check it out, duh, duh, duh. Jessica, Jessa Lewis, is the business manager in my business, and she supervises all the ninjas. It's a very- I'm a ninja. ... Enduring task- I'm a ninja. ... That somebody has to do. She decides, she sends me a bunch of props. There some pretty inappropriate stuff on this table right here in front on me. Just random. There's this thing. She said she made me, herself, no you cannot buy Chanel hip flasks, but she made me one. She's committed to her job. You only want soulmate team members in your company/organization, who are committed to the point where they will indeed procure for you, and if need be, create for you, of their own two hands, a Chanel hip flask. I never even, what can we put in here? I never even drink the spirits anyhow? Can you put wine in a hip flask. But why do you have a funnel. So, that you can build an effing funnel. Is this a funnel? I have no idea what that's for. Does it attach to something else, is it for this? It's attached to my head. All right, I don't know. Who doesn't want a Chanel hip flask? What am I gonna put in it? Somebody's in the shower, [crosstalk 01:01:16] somebody's cutting pumpkin. Oh, all those mosquito bites up close, nobody needs to see that. They look beautiful though honey, you look beautiful. No they don't. They're just like Bali battle scars. Can you put that book over there. These things, these things? Sure, let's have some berries. Well, how about we not, thank you. I put two. You could have put them in a small crystal bowl, I suppose. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What can I put in the flask? What do you think I should put in it? It's dead. What's happening here, taste one of these berries. No. Taste this. No. Taste taster. Eat this. Taste one of these berries. Eat this. [inaudible 01:01:54]. Alyssa, try one of these berries. I'm eating them, I'm not dying. I taste tested them for you first, but taste test it, and tell me what you think. A key. Good. You like it, I thought it tasted musty, and pusty, and dusty. The one that I ate was sour, and it was good. I love the sour. There's nothing more disgusting than a sweet berry, you guys. I ate sour. It's just vial. It should be illegal. Mommy, your undies on the balcony and about to fall. They're not my undies. That's a random child's underwear that I think, that sounds bad. No, no, no. It's a swimsuit that's obviously flow down from another balcony. What? Well, they're not ours. Bring them in, let's have a look at them. [crosstalk 01:02:40] But, let's check it out. Alyssa, can you help me? In conclusion, I need to go to the gym. We all ready did that, but we'll go again. Should we go to the gym? Should we go to the gym want to go to the gym again. I got them. Oh, get rid of them. Don't touch them, they look gross and disgusting. They're actual real underwear. What? Shut the door, no don't touch somebody else's underwear. Throw them off the balcony. Do not throw them off the balcony. Somebody will see the live stream, we'll get in trouble. They've got some kind of magic system in [crosstalk 01:03:20] this building. I don't want to [inaudible 01:03:22] balcony. Can you shut that door. They've got some kind of [crosstalk 01:03:25] system in this building, where a few ... Are you all right? Go wash your hands. She's probably [crosstalk 01:03:32]. I don't want those on my, on your balcony. I'll get them later. Shut the door for now. Go [crosstalk 01:03:38]. No don't, please don't throw them off, because they always know when you throw something off. I don't know how they know what exact floor and apartment it is, and I'm not talking like 24 hours later when they've reviewed the camera footage. I'm talking like three minutes later there'll be a knock on the door. We're not throwing some toys, lightweight things, nothing dangerous, off the balcony a couple of times. Can you shut the door? Why? Because, I'm getting cold. Okay. What about the raspberries. You don't want your raspberries to be sour though. Take this away, take them small person. I kind of need somebody [crosstalk 01:04:13]. Can you shut the door please, Alyssa? Let's try these. Mommy, I just want to go again. This is fabulous. Mommy, I just want to [inaudible 01:04:22]. No, you can't go out on the balcony without me, it's not proper. Okay, I feel like we're going down a weird ... Are you seriously spitting into the berries, or are you eating straight out of it? These are really good. Okay, I've made many points that are relevant, or not relevant to my main point. But, what if you just let it be freaking easy all the time? I think that was really my whole point. Here's how to let it be easy, and this is where people will just come to you, and they will just pay you. You're like I don't know what they're supposed to pay me. But, you do know. You freaking own it, right? I touched the undies again. Do not touch somebody else's gross undies. I'll have to put you on the spin cycle three times to cleanse you. There's a worm in here. Really? No. Pretty, extra credit. No I'm not. [inaudible 01:05:10]. Don't touch undies. Can I have some vegetables now? Get me the vegetables. Bring me some cucumber. No, no, pick them up, or they'll get dirty. However, I do things for them as well. I don't just order them around. Tell me. Get down from there right now. He wasn't up on the balcony, he was up on the chair. No getting up on chairs on balconies at all, even if it's back from the balcony. All right, okay. I've nothing else to add. I'm done, I'm just done. I've cleansed myself of my entire message. I'm gonna go sweat. I'm gonna go sweat and then, and I need some vegetables. Bring me some carrot sticks girl. Okay. No, carrots disgusting, cucumber, fennel. Okay, can you bring me some carrots, and cucumber, and fennel? Cucumber, fennel, celery, and what was the other one? Snow peas, bring them to me please, forthwith. But, I'm the queen. I already chopped some for you before, now I'm just asking you to bring them back to me. You put raspberries all your face. You look like you've been in a crime. [crosstalk 01:06:21] Thank you, honey. Lovely. I'm the singer. You're the singer, okay, cool. I'm [inaudible 01:06:27]. Is there anything we need to add? Can you bring me the vegetables, I've asked 14 times? I'm serious. I need some vegetables in my body. I need to cleanse that dried ... Throw that in the bin, that looks disgusting. Who would want to eat that? Me. That stuffs gonna shrivel your insides straight away. Who puts cereal into a [inaudible 01:06:47] bar, gross. You're gonna eat it, it looks vial. Show it to the people so they can see the disgustingness of the Nutri-Grain bar. Nobody should be buying this stuff. See, that's like some empty watermelon pieces. That's not what I asked for. But, there's some [crosstalk 01:07:04] isn't it? I want cucumber. No. Can I have some cucumber? No. Hey, guys. Stop that. All right, we're gonna go. Okay, we've got it. We've got it. The message is, be yourself, but be all [crosstalk 01:07:17] of yourself, but be yourself all the time, not just restrictively, or based on when it feels convenient or easy, but that you actually let ... Stop wiping raspberries all over your face ... That you actually let the whole message out, and he's snorting like a piglet now. And, really just go with the flow [crosstalk 01:07:39] It's Saturday afternoon you guys, if you were around at my house right now, this is exactly what would be going on. This is a normal Saturday afternoon behaviour, isn't it? I'm pretty sure it's normal. [crosstalk 01:07:52] You just show that to the world. And, life is now a press dirty. Go wash your little raspberry face. Oh, don't throw the sceptre. If you came and hung around now, we'd probably have some wine as well. [crosstalk 01:08:09] Ew, put that in the bin, I don't want it [crosstalk 01:08:12] Be careful with it, because it's messy. Eat this. No, that feels yucky in my tummy. I don't want t eat that yucky, yucky. It's poopie. Then, if you came around another time, I'm gonna make an important [crosstalk 01:08:24] serious point now. If you came around another time when the kids weren't here. Then, it might not be quite as random, but it

One of the common misconceptions about Agile is that there's no documentation. This simply isn't true. The second line of the Agile Manifesto reads: “Working software over comprehensive documentation” This doesn’t mean that we don’t have documentation. It just means that the folks who created the manifesto did not see the value in delivering the documentation at the expense of delivering working, tested software. In a recent Certified ScrumMaster class in NYC, one student raised an issue she was experiencing with her Development Team who is deeply committed to the “no documentation” camp. In this podcast, Dave Prior is joined by Anil Jaising (who helped to facilitate the New York class) to discuss the myth of no documentation, the truth about documentation in Agile, and how that can play out in a highly regulated/audited environment.

Week 10 - We take a realistic look into the unrealistic world of romantic comedies that we LOVE to hate. This Week: How to Be Single (2016) (Another Star Studded Piece of Shit) Starring Dakota Johnson, Rebel Wilson, Leslie Mann, Alison Brie, Anders Holm, & Damon Wayans Jr. An impossible movie where a bunch of people tell you how to be single by looking for a relationship. We ask the tough questions this week: Is there a right way to be single? Is there a wrong way to be single? Are there REALLY NO black people in New York City?! How much does a paralegal make? Why do people think a break will help their relationship? WHY DO PEOPLE USE DICK STRAWS AT THEIR BACHELORETTE PARTY?!?!?! We love you, Jason Mantzoukas. HEIGL Meter: We went algebraic, this week.

Boris Gloger says it's time to reimagine Scrum. Or rather to take Scrum back to its roots, before Scrum 1.0, whose original picture, Boris contends, is wrong. Scrum originated in "The New New Product Development Game" by Hirotaka Takeuchi and Ikujiro Nonaka, and Boris revisits it to point out the ways that Scrum and current Agile practices need an overhaul. Here's a taste of some of Boris' thoughts on Scrum 3.0: - The team interacts directly with the customer or end-user and write user stories, not the Product Owner. - If, in Lean thinking, every type of inventory is waste, then the Product Backlog is also waste. - Sprints can begin as soon as one user story or task is ready for the team to consume. - Daily Scrum need to be rethought too, rather than daily, every 90 minutes. - Many more (very short) demos, perhaps every 90 minutes... Boris also shares some experiences using Scrum 3.0 at a client.  (There's also a lot of dishes clanging in the background--sorry! But people gotta eat... :)) SolutionsIQ's Howard Sublett hosts at Agile2016 in Atlanta, GA.

Hi everyone. It's Scott. Today we have traveled to a rough neighborhood, lots of dirty alleys, and no street lights. To put it another way, today's show is a look into my brain; Why I do what I do, how I conceptualize the meaning of being an artist (and I use that term loosely), and how I cope with being a member of an industry that can lead to a great deal of mental and emotional pain. Mostly self-inflicted, of course. At the end, enjoy my meanderings on the piano. One take, no editing. Just wanted to offer you the raw music, which is my whole point of it all anyway. So I leave you with this: I got it from Woody Allen, who got it from Groucho Marx: It seems I really don't want to belong to any club that would have me for a member.

Cristina stopped in to talk about Peter Steele's unexpected death. Steele is best known for being the singer and songwriter of goth/metal band Type O Negative. He died of heart failure at the age of 48.PS, Also, hey, I'm sick. I haven't been feeling good since Saturday, and I fear it's probably because I went out every night for the past three weeks. I must've picked up this bug from standing too close to someone sick or just simply that mother nature is trying to shut me down. Either case, I'm taking it easy this next few weeks.W♥M Radio will be going on hiatus for a while. You see, I've become increasingly unhappy with the Comcast service I'm getting. For the most part Comcast works, but on the days when it's not working, it's very frustrating. For instance, today (Tuesday), it's been going in and out sporadically. It happens on all the holidays (the most recent being on Easter when I was so mad that I couldn't get any work done).So here's the thing, I pay $60 a month for their "high-speed" service, and I'm gone for twelve hours a day for my day job and going to shows at night, so when I am home, I just expect it to work, you know? And don't tell me it's my modem or my router, I do know how to reset them if it comes to that.What's my alternative? I can't/won't use DSL. Really? You want me to hook up a phone line first? Really??? No thank you. There's basically no cable-type internet in my area, so my only option will have to be the free wifi coffee shops. I am probably going with the free option with also a $30 unlimited AT&T data plan for the iPad, which is not out until May 7th, so I'll have to wait for this option. That's my plan, I'll probably get rid of Comcast in June or July, we'll see. Subscription OptionsSubscribe on iTunesSubscribe via RSSAdd to GoogleAdd to Yahoo____Archive of this show at archive.org.
