Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performers often fear stillness — mistaking rest for regression. In this episode, discover how reflection roots transformation and why true strength is restored, not lost, when you pause to let peace lead.For many high-capacity humans, stillness feels unsafe. After years of performing peace instead of receiving it, the pause between doing and becoming can feel like withdrawal.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly guides listeners into the quiet — the sacred space where the nervous system catches up to the new identity being formed. Drawing from somatic integration, she explains how rest isn't weakness but wiring — the physiological reset that allows peace to become your default instead of pressure.You'll learn how to:Recognize the “performance adrenaline” that keeps you from truly resting.Understand why your mind resists stillness — and how to reframe it as safety, not stagnation.Stop performing stillness as another “to-do” and start receiving peace instead.Rewire your nervous system to trust reflection as part of forward motion.Practice micro-moments of pause that stabilize your leadership, creativity, and presence.Julie draws subtle wisdom from Tiger Woods and Marcus Aurelius, both of whom learned that rest isn't retreat — it's the recalibration of mastery. Their stories remind us that restraint is part of greatness, and that waiting is where wisdom matures.This isn't mindfulness as performance — it's Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR): the psychology-backed, faith-rooted pathway that transforms pressure into peace by aligning who you are beneath what you do.Today's Micro Recalibration:“You're safe to pause; stillness is where strength resets.”And if you lead a team:“Invite one minute of quiet before your next meeting — not for productivity, but for presence. Notice how safety shifts the room.”Stillness isn't the end of momentum. It's the maturity of it.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

High performers often mistake discipline for proving. This episode explores how to practice without pressure — so you can restore joy, focus, and peace. Learn why real mastery flows from presence, not performance, and how to rewire your brain for peace.For many high-capacity humans, discipline has become disguised defense. You're not afraid of practice — you're afraid of what might happen if you stop.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks why even the most dedicated high performers can lose joy when practice turns into proving. Through the lens of neuroplasticity, she explains how your brain learns safety through repetition — not striving — and how to rebuild a rhythm that restores your energy, focus, and identity.You'll learn how to:Recognize when “discipline” has turned into self-protection.Reprogram your nervous system through repetition in safety, not stress.Shift from proving your worth to practicing your peace.Understand why integration doesn't slow you down — it compounds your impact.Lead teams where growth flows from trust, not tension.Drawing from the later chapters of Tiger Woods' comeback, Julie shows what it looks like to return to mastery with humility, peace, and gratitude. His quiet strength reminds us that excellence doesn't disappear when pressure is released — it deepens.This isn't mindset work. It's Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) — the psychology-backed, faith-rooted pathway that begins with the who, not just the how. It's not another strategy. It's the smallest internal shift that changes everything.Today's Micro Recalibration:“Practice becomes worship when peace is your measure of success.”And if you lead a team, bring this to your next meeting:“What if growth didn't come from pressure, but from safety?”Integration begins when you remember — peace isn't passive. It's the posture that makes power sustainable.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

#351: Do you ever find yourself reminding your partner about their doctor's appointments (again)? Researching options for your adult child because they might get overwhelmed? Managing the family group chat so no one gets upset? You tell yourself you're being helpful, caring, responsible. That this is how you show love.

Parenting a child who melts down over homework or seemingly simple tasks can feel overwhelming and exhausting. You're not imagining it—the frustration, tears, and chaos aren't bad behavior. It's a dysregulated brain struggling to access its control center.In this episode, let me explain why dysregulated kids can't use their executive function, what that means for daily life, and practical strategies to help your child regain focus, complete tasks, and strengthen their executive functioning skills.Why does my child melt down after school?Many parents notice that after a long day, their child becomes irritable or shuts down at homework time. This isn't defiance—it's a dysregulated brain that's gone offline.When stress builds, it hijacks the prefrontal cortex, the control center for planning, organization, and impulse control. Your child simply can't access their executive functions or working memory until their nervous system settles.What's happening:Stress or sensory overload disrupts brain functions.Transitions and overstimulation lead to poor executive functioning—especially in kids with ADHD or anxiety.Their brain shifts from learning to survival mode.What helps:Co-regulate first. Your calm presence signals safety.Once calm, executive functioning skills like focus, planning, and task completion return.Let's calm the brain first—because that's when real learning begins.Download the Executive Functioning Toolkit — packed with science-backed strategies you can start using today to reduce stress and improve focus.How can I help my child focus when they can't control their emotions?When emotions flood in, logic and problem-solving shut down. This is common in children with ADHD, learning disabilities, or high emotional sensitivity.Regulate first: Deep breaths, movement, or sensory grounding can reset the brain.Break tasks into small, manageable steps to avoid overwhelming a child with poor executive functioning.Use internal self-talk modeling: Narrate your planning out loud to teach cognitive strategies like task initiation and sustained attention.

I get it—you're juggling your flute students, auditions, business goals, and maybe even burnout. But what if the next level of your music career doesn't come from doing more—but from being still? In this conversation, I share how I learned to stop consuming endless content (hello, doom scrolling) and start creating from a place of peace, focus, and faith. Together, we'll talk about how to: Reconnect to your artistry through stillness and prayer Recognize when you're overconsuming instead of creating Find clarity and focus by "plugging into" God's direction Let go of frantic productivity and embrace purpose-driven creativity So pour a cup of tea, find a quiet corner, and come sit with me. You'll leave this episode feeling lighter, more centered, and ready to create from a place of alignment—not anxiety.

You've been there. The recruit is engaged, the vision is aligned, and then silence. Or worse, hesitation that comes from a spouse, a current manager, or a friend. In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I unpack one of the most common and misunderstood challenges in recruiting: how to lead when someone else is influencing your recruit behind the scenes. This is the framework I teach leaders to help them stay calm, coach through fear, and win trust without becoming defensive or pushy. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Introduction – The silent deal-breaker: recruits influenced by voices you can't see [01:00] Recognize the Pattern – Recruits often consult with a spouse, friend, mentor, or current manager during decision-making. This is normal, not a red flag [02:00] Outside Voices Are Often Uninformed – They offer opinions without context. They bring emotion, not strategy. You must equip your recruit to lead those conversations [03:00] Step 1: Bring It Up Before It Happens – Set the expectation early that these voices may show up, and offer your support when they do [04:00] Step 2: Normalize the Moment – Tell them it's okay to feel pulled. Then offer to talk through anything they're hearing, without judgment or pressure [05:00] Step 3: Ask Better Questions – What exactly did they say? What concern do you think is behind that? What part of it resonates with you? [06:00] Step 4: Validate the Emotion – Instead of debating, say, "That makes sense." Recruits need safety before they can process clearly [06:30] Step 5: Offer to Include the Outside Voice – "Would it help if we brought your spouse or mentor into a call—not to pitch, just to answer questions?" That move alone often builds trust [07:00] Step 6: Equip Them With Language – Give the recruit specific, value-based reasons for the move so they're not fumbling through the conversation at home [08:00] Personal Story – Richard shares how a recruit nearly walked away after a buddy's advice, until one key moment helped him realize he was borrowing someone else's fear [09:00] Final Challenge – Think about one stalled recruit. Reach out this week, invite the conversation, and be the calm voice in the noise Key Takeaways Outside Influence Is Inevitable – But when you're proactive, it doesn't have to be a deal-breaker Don't Argue. Equip – Help your recruit navigate those conversations with clarity, not confusion Invite the Inner Circle In – Offering to speak with spouses or mentors shows transparency and builds credibility Fear Grows in the Dark – The best recruiters name concerns early, normalize hesitation, and help people process wisely You're Recruiting More Than the Candidate – You're recruiting their household, their belief system, and their circle of trust In a world full of loud opinions, the leaders who slow down, listen well, and guide with clarity are the ones people choose to follow. Want help building a recruiting system that equips you to lead high-trust, high-emotion conversations like this?

Eric chats with Libby Delucian and they discuss her remarkable journey from hitting rock bottom after a separation—being locked out of her house with nothing—to becoming a successful entrepreneur in the home service and software industries. She details how she leveraged her experience and skills to launch an organizing and cleaning company which quickly grew, leading to the creation of three separate software solutions for the industry. A significant portion of the conversation focuses on business philosophy, including the importance of a strong "why," leadership strategies, such as family quarterly meetings to prevent burnout, and innovative ideas like a tipping and Google review incentive system for her employees. The interview also touches on her experiences with mentors, notably Jonathan Potoschnik and Dan Martell, and her upcoming role as a speaker at Martell's event. Key Takeaways: View your business as a vehicle for a larger personal goal, keeping your self-worth separate from its daily performance. Find a powerful reason or "Why" for your actions that is strong enough to motivate you daily and make all excuses disappear. When starting fresh, use your past experiences and existing skills, such as being organized or structured, to accelerate your progress. Conduct regular family meetings to align on personal vision and schedule time off, ensuring you commit to these priorities before setting business demands. Recognize that intense learning and rapid execution are distinct seasons, and sometimes you must slow down the learning to accelerate execution.

Stephen and Megan dive into the ideas behind Jonathan Haidt's bestselling book, The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness. Together, they unpack how the rise of smartphones and the decline of play-based childhood have shaped an entire generation.In this conversation, Stephen explains Haidt's core argument that childhood was “rewired” around 2012 — trading outdoor play, social learning, and healthy risk for screen-based connection, comparison, and constant distraction. They explore how this great rewiring has uniquely impacted both boys and girls, why young adults today are more anxious and lonely than ever, and how we can begin reclaiming what was lost.You'll walk away with practical ways to manage your attention, pursue real-world relationships, and rediscover presence in a digital world that never stops scrolling.Be sure to subscribe today so you never miss an episode!4 Key Takeaways:Own Your Attention.

In this video, our Global Lead Pastor, Pastor Shola Okodugha, concludes the “Securing the Bag” series by revealing a powerful truth: God wants us to have a renewed mindset about money.The truth is God wants us to have money, but many believers remain poor because they cling to old beliefs and fail to understand how the Word of God truly works.Scripture Reference: Leviticus 26:9-10 (MSG), Leviticus 25:18-22 (MSG)Pastor Shola explains that the Word of God has three dimensions: Principles, Prophecies, and Practices. By applying these principles, we can predict how our lives will turn out.Many Christians don't act on prophecies. We must use principles to bring prophecies to life.Scripture References:Ephesians 5:1 “Be imitators of Christ.” We often hear the Word but fail to do it. If we act as Christ did, we'll experience His results.Proverbs 22:7 (NKJV), Ecclesiastes 7:12 (NKJV)Pastor Shola emphasizes that your smallness is not on God, it's on you. This teaching aims to equip believers with knowledge about where they are and where God wants them to be. The devil cannot determine your future; he can only attempt to stop the flow of resources that fund God's vision in your life. Prophecies are great, but principles make them work.Three Powerful Principles for Financial Domination:1. Productivity (Work)Genesis 2:15 (NKJV), Ecclesiastes 1:13The first thing God gave man was work. Productivity is divine. Prosperity answers to diligent labor, not idleness.2. Negotiation (Value Exchange)Matthew 20:1-13 (NKJV)You receive in proportion to what you believe for. Learn to negotiate your terms and value. The world is up for grabs. What you're thinking is the agreement you're signing with God.3. Opportunity (Discernment & Action)Jeremiah 17:6, Hebrews 11:31, Joshua 2:8Prosperity comes when you recognize, seize, and create opportunities. Self-consciousness leads to poverty; take bold steps in faith.Pastor Shola concludes with a powerful reminder from 1 Kings 21:1-15: “It is warfare.”To dominate financially, you must be willing to fight for your space and draw your sword spiritually and mentally.Key Takeaways:God's desire is for you to prosper, but you must renew your mindset about money.Prophecies inspire you; principles establish them.Your productivity is proof of your faith.The world responds to boldness and negotiation, not fear.Recognize and act on divine opportunities; your provision is in your obedience.This message is a call to responsibility, courage, and practical faith in God's prosperity plan.Be blessed as you watch!Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more life-transforming teachings.ABOUT THE NEWWe are a people of love and excellence who are result-oriented, spirit-led, word-rooted, prayer-driven, and kingdom-conscious.

After twelve chapters of action, miracles, and conquest, our journey through the book of Joshua enters a long stretch of mind-numbingly boring descriptions of towns and boundaries. What in the world could the division of the land into tribal territories have to do with us today?In trying to answer that, I began to ask myself some questions: Why did God assign certain people to live in certain places? Was it simply to demonstrate His authority? Or could it be that He had bigger, Kingdom reasons for wanting them there?In my pondering, I came to this conclusion: When it came to occupying ground for the Kingdom, the Lord assigned His people the territory where they could uniquely make an impact.This idea of the Lord sovereignly placing people is carried over to the N.T. where we read that “God began by making one person, and from him came all the different people who live everywhere in the world. God decided exactly when and where they must live.” (Acts 17:26 NCV)I want to suggest that the Lord might well do the same with you and me. Could it be that, of all the places you could be living, you are in the exact place God wants you to be to make a Kingdom impact? What would it be like if, as surely as the tribes of Israel possessed their land, you and your tribe—your family— would possess your land? Your city, your zip code, your neighborhood, your street? How might you make a Kingdom impact in your land?1. Recognize that you have been given a land.God has put you there as His representative. You have been given a land in which you are to represent the Kingdom of God. And, for good or for bad, you do. It's not a matter of if you will represent your King, but how you represent your King. That leads to the next point.2. Honor the Lord in your land.From the words we say to the attitudes we display to the actions we take, we are to glorify the One we represent.3. Pray for your land. Pray for the peace, prosperity, and people of your neighborhood. Take a prayer walk and intercede for individual homes. If there's a nearby school, pray for it. Pray over the fire station. Pray over the parks. Pray over governmental buildings.4. Engage with other believers in your land.While you have been placed in a specific part of the land, you are likely not the only Christ-follower who has been placed there. God has given others that territory as well. Ask the Lord to show you who those people are, then look for ways to engage them in the mission. 5. Seek to impact the unbelievers in your land.Jesus said, “You are the light of the world… let your light shine before others so they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Mt. 5:14-15) Be the kind of people your neighbors are glad to live beside. Serve with kindness and sacrifice, and pray for opportunities to have spiritual conversations with those in your land.

In this episode of The Revenue Builders Podcast hosted by John McMahon and John Kaplan, Chris Reising, a five-time Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) with extensive experience in scaling sales at early-stage tech companies, shares invaluable insights into the challenges and strategies involved in scaling sales functions for startups. From finding product-market fit to hiring the right sales reps and understanding the importance of pain points, this conversation provides a comprehensive guide for entrepreneurs looking to grow their businesses.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:01:17] In the early stages of a startup, you must wear multiple hats, including being a product manager and a sales professional. Understanding the ICP and gathering customer insights are crucial.[00:02:31] The early days of a startup involve learning every day, attending sales meetings, understanding objections, and identifying the value your technology brings. Effective communication with the product team is key.[00:04:05] Investor relations play a significant role. Early-stage investors look for different data points, and their feedback can be invaluable in understanding market signals.[00:06:11] The importance of prioritizing technology components based on customer pain points and the potential to generate immediate revenue.[00:07:44] Recognizing a recurring pattern in sales discussions where customers react positively to specific functionalities is a sign of repeatability and scalability.[00:09:05] Founders who want to remain deeply involved in the sales process need guidance on when to step back. It's a common challenge in early-stage startups.[00:12:42] Breaking down a grand vision into bite-sized chunks of value that address specific business problems is crucial for achieving repeatability and market success.[00:13:30] Expanding the vision is essential but keeping the framework simple enough for the market and sales team to understand and execute is key to early-stage success.[00:13:50] The importance of focusing sales efforts on the most productive areas and avoiding the mistake of spreading sales teams too thin.HIGHLIGHT QUOTES[00:06:56] "When you start to recognize a recurring pattern...you start to say, 'Now I have some sense of repeatability,' and that's really important."[00:10:08] "There's a huge difference between a first and second-time founder...you need to help them understand that stepping away is an important part of growing the business."[00:13:01] "Recognize you've got to break that big vision down into bite-sized chunks that can be digested by your go-to-market team and by the market, by customers."[00:13:30] "Where are we going to place our salespeople? Where are they going to be the most productive? That's really a key point."Listen to the full episode with Chris Reisig in this link:https://revenue-builders.simplecast.com/episodes/building-a-scalable-culture-with-chris-reisigEnjoying the podcast?

Introduction and Background Denis Kozlov, originally from Russia and now an American citizen, shared his testimony of God's calling to plant a church in Florida. He reflected on his friendship with Pastor Matthew and how their connection was rooted in spiritual discernment rather than analysis—trusting the flow of the Holy Spirit. He encouraged believers to live where the Spirit of the Lord flows, not just where logic leads. Main Theme: The Benefits of the Gospel (from Galatians) Kozlov's sermon was based on the Apostle Paul's letter to the Galatians. He emphasized that the gospel of grace and law-based religion are mutually exclusive—they cannot coexist. The Galatians had begun their faith in the freedom of grace but drifted back into legalism. Kozlov highlighted that Christians must resist the temptation to “bargain” or earn favor from God; grace is a pure gift that cannot be mixed with self-righteousness. Four Benefits of the Gospel Kozlov identified four key benefits believers receive through the gospel: Justified We are forgiven and declared righteous before God as though we have never sinned. Justification is not based on works or law-keeping, but solely on faith in Jesus Christ. Christ became a curse for us, taking on our sin so we could live in the freedom of His righteousness. Kozlov used the illustration of his U.S. citizenship—his new passport changed his status permanently; likewise, believers now approach heaven with full acceptance. Adopted We are legally adopted as children of God, no longer slaves or outsiders. God has made us heirs with Christ—fully legitimate and loved. Kozlov reminded the congregation that even when we feel distant, adoption is not based on emotion but on divine truth. He quoted Galatians 4:4–7 to show that God sent His Son to redeem us and make us part of His family. Indwelled The Holy Spirit—the Spirit of Sonship—lives within every believer. This Spirit enables us to cry “Abba, Father,” expressing a deep, trusting intimacy with God. Kozlov shared moving personal stories illustrating how God became a true Father to him after growing up without one. As a child, he was lifted onto a man's lap to “drive” a car—God later used that memory to show how He gives us dignity and guidance. As a young man, when praying about marriage, God taught him responsibility by asking, “You tell me,” shaping him into a mature believer. Empowered The gospel empowers us to walk by the Spirit, not just experience emotional highs in worship. Kozlov compared the Christian walk to an inchworm—we move forward when our head (faith) and our feet (action) stay connected. Many believers receive inspiration but never act on it; faith must lead to daily obedience and small steps of faith. The true fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—comes only through the Spirit's life within us, not through human effort. Closing Message Kozlov concluded with Galatians 2:20: “I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.” He encouraged believers to: Live rooted in Christ's love and grace. Stop trying to earn God's favor. Recognize that the Christian life is not self-effort but Christ in us, the hope of glory. He summarized the benefits once more: Justified – Heaven is open to you. Adopted – You are a legitimate child of God. Indwelled – You carry the Spirit of God within you. Empowered – You can live and act by the Spirit every day. Pastor Matthew's Closing Exhortation Pastor Matthew concluded by emphasizing the power of overcoming: Denis' life testified that anyone can rise above hardship—fatherlessness, poverty, or pain. Many believers live burdened by past wounds, but Christ calls us to overcome. “Stop feeling sorry for yourself,” he urged. “You can be an overcomer through the Word of God.” The altar was opened for prayer, inviting those ready to leave behind defeat and step into new life through Christ. Core Message The gospel of Jesus Christ is not about striving—it's about receiving. You are justified, adopted, indwelled, and empowered. Live as a child of grace, not a slave of the law. And let your life become a testimony that greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world.

The Love, Happiness and Success Podcast With Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby
How much of what you do every day is really your choice? The food you crave, the shows you watch, the moods you slip into - so much of it is quietly being shaped by invisible influences you probably never notice. In this episode, I talk with Dr. Tatyana El-Kour, a psychologist and registered dietitian who studies how media and technology shape our behavior. She shares how algorithms learn our emotional rhythms - what time of day we're vulnerable, what kind of content keeps us scrolling - and use that data to steer our choices. We also explore something just as powerful: the invisible influence inside us. Your gut microbiome doesn't just affect digestion. It can shape your emotions, focus, and even your resilience. This conversation left me thinking deeply about how easily we're guided by forces we can't see and how much freedom comes from noticing them. Once you recognize what's pulling the strings, you can start reclaiming your power, one intentional choice at a time. As you listen, ask yourself: When do I feel most on autopilot? What's really driving my decisions in those moments? And what would it look like to start choosing differently?
