It's been a wild few years for grid-scale batteries in Texas. At the start of the decade, the Lone Star State was home to roughly 200 megawatts of battery capacity. Today, that number has skyrocketed to seventeen gigawatts…with at least five more gigawatts expected to come online by the end of 2026. But this rapid buildout quickly led to market saturation. In the past year alone, revenues plummeted by more than 80%, far below the threshold needed for fleet operators to stay in the black. The future of the battery market in Texas remains murky. Will the depression continue? Or will the imminent, enormous surge of data center load growth reset the state of play and bring volatility back into the mix? In this episode, Shayle sits down with Brandt Vermillion, U.S. market lead at Modo Energy, to unpack the mechanics of the Texas battery storage market, and consider when the tide could turn back in developers' favor. They cover topics like: - The factors behind the recent cratering of the market - How longer battery durations are able to capture secondary price spikes - The degree to which weather patterns have contributed to battery demand - Reconciling currently suppressed revenues with the hundreds of incoming gigawatts of proposed data center demand - Whether on-site generation for hyperscaler data centers will blunt peak demand spikes and delay the return of grid volatility - Why off-takers are considering tolling agreements to survive the market downturn - Catalyst: 2026 trends: Gas turbines, Texas' load queue, and China electrifies - Catalyst: Why C&I storage is finally taking off - Catalyst: The rise of flexible data centers - Open Circuit: Data centers have a Texas-sized energy problem - Open Circuit: The off-grid data center fantasy - Open Circuit: A global energy shock and the case for distributed power - Open Circuit: Power is caught in AI's doom loop - Latitude Media: How the AI boom has impacted US battery storage so far - Latitude Media: Branch Energy heads to PJM to sell battery capacity to data centers Credits: Hosted by Shayle Kann.

CMOs are putting more than 15% of their marketing budgets into Al. But 70% say their own marketing processes aren't ready for it. Where Does Your Next Marketing Dollar Go? Before you spend your next marketing dollar on Al, look at what Gartner found when it asked 401 CMOs about their budgets this year. They are putting more than 15 percent of the marketing budget into Al, and 70 percent of them say their own processes aren't ready for it My guest on this episode of The AI Marketing Companion has an explanation for that gap. Marie Bahl is the CMO of Uptempo, whose software helps marketing teams at companies like IBM and IKEA plan and track every dollar they spend. She has marketed enterprise software for 30 years, and she writes for both CMOs and CFOs. Who Wires Together Every Marketing Dollar? A quick primer first. A point solution is software built to do one job: send email, run webinars, score leads, report attribution. Marie counts more than 15,000 of them sold to marketers. A large team might run 50, each bought at a different time by a different person, and few of them share numbers. In finance or HR, IT or a consulting firm connects the systems. In marketing, that wiring job landed on the CMO. Marie's description of the result: "We've allowed this crazy patchwork quilt of solutions to ineffectively represent us, and what happens in the mix is we lose credibility." Her one-line summary of the job today: "The CMO job today is mostly defensive. We're playing defense instead of offense." Marketing Is a Business, So Defend the Marketing Dollar Like One Marie argues that marketing is a business inside the business. Marketers build the market, and they create a series of products that deliver that market on behalf of what the company sells. Running it that way means trading impressions and clicks for measures a CFO already uses. She told me the story of IBM seeing its entire marketing budget in one view for the first time. The Kentucky Derby sponsorship couldn't justify itself next to everything else on the page, so IBM walked away from it. Could your biggest line item survive that same view? Play Along: Keep, Kill, or Hand It Back I asked Marie to sort five tasks that sit on a typical CMO's desk: Choosing and wiring the marketing software Reconciling the budget with finance Buying AI tools for the team Cleaning customer data Building the attribution report for the board Sort them for your own desk before you listen. Then hear which one Marie still owns herself, and the sentence she thinks every marketing leader should say to their CIO this week. Her challenge to all of us: "It's time to stop and ask for the underpinning that you need in order to be credible on behalf of your business." [Listen to the full episode] Hear Marie out, then decide where your next marketing dollar goes.

This week on USPAP Talk, Amy and Alan take a closer look at reconciling different indications of value.

Broken relationships are a fact of life but how should we react? Should we forgive others or does there come a time when you need to draw a line under a relationship and move on. Audrey talks to Rabbi Dr Jonathan Romain, Jim Deeds and Dr Elaine Storkey about difficult conversations and the difference between reconciliation and forgiveness.We also talk to Vatican Correspondent Elise Ann Allen about her journey with her husband, John, as he faced terminal cancer before dying earlier this year.

CDI, coding, and clinical medicine are involved in a tug-of-war over a complex, life-threatening medical emergency that seems resistant to all forms of consensus. I'm talking about sepsis of course, and on today's show I got to talk about sepsis with someone as qualified as anyone in the world to do so. Steven Simpson, MD, is Professor of Medicine at the University of Kansas in the Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine. He has done research in all areas of severe sepsis, from molecular and cellular mechanisms to translational and quality improvement studies. He is currently chair of the board of directors for the Sepsis Alliance and an author of the 2016, 2021, and 2025 reviews and updates of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign Guidelines. I'm also joined by James Kennedy, MD, CCS, a familiar name and voice for anyone involved in CDI and coding circles. Listen in as we cover: Dr. Simpson's deep and rich background in sepsis, including early clinical days with septic patients, working with Drs. Bone and Balk who created Sepsis-1, and his role on the Sepsis Alliance. Co-authoring the 2026 Surviving Sepsis Guideline that defines sepsis as a “life-threatening acute organ dysfunction to infection”: His stance on sepsis-2 and sepsis-3. The politics of definition and diagnosis: Who gets to write these definitions. The struggle: Reconciling sepsis-2 with sepsis-3, further complicated by CMS' use of sepsis-2 in its new sepsis readmission measure. What's the right answer for this, if there is one? Looming sepsis proposal to create codes for “impending sepsis,” the role of AI-technologies (e.g., Sepsis ImmunoScore, TriVerity) in identifying these patients, and what the University of Kansas is doing to identify and intervene on infected patients before they evolve into organ dysfunctions. Plans for future work for other sepsis-related concepts, payers and denials, and a pair of songs for the Off the Record Spotify playlist.

In this episode, Heather shares practical ways to notice when you are holding back, how to talk about desires with a partner, and how to work with the parts of yourself that feel protective or ashamed.Key topicsSexual inhibition can show up as keeping fantasies private, staying quiet during sex, or feeling like your desires are weird or inappropriate.A “low libido” may actually be hidden desire that has been buried by self-judgment, fear of being judged, or difficulty naming wants.Private sexual interests, like porn fantasies, romance novels, or kink scenarios, can be a sign that part of your sexuality is not being shared with a partner.Cultural conditioning plays a major role, including messages from family, friends, school, church, purity culture, and gender socialization.Safety matters first. Heather notes that sexual inhibition can be tied to real concerns about unwanted attention, objectification, and sexual aggression.Substance use during sex can be a clue that inhibition is getting in the way of pleasure and ease.Timestamps00:00 - What sexual inhibition is and what this episode will cover 00:31 - Signs you may be repressed or censoring yourself 05:36 - How socialization teaches people what sex is “allowed” to be 06:06 - Church, purity culture, and shame-based sexual messaging 07:03 - Sexual safety, unwanted attention, and guardedness 09:25 - Family modeling, mixed examples, and emotional risk around sex 13:36 - How civilization can lead us to exile our primal side 15:00 - Reconciling the proper self with the sexual self 16:25 - Integrating lust and emotional connection 17:24 - Using parts work to welcome the more wild parts 19:50 - How sharing desires can create intimacy and closeness 20:49 - Substance use as a sign that inhibition may be present 21:10 - Befriending the protective inner voice 21:40 - Freeing your sexuality without needing to be stereotypically wild 23:06 - How to ask for curiosity and safety from a partnerLooking for coaching?

Episode 231 of The Adventure Podcast features explorer and polar activist, Matthieu Tordeur. Starting with a solo trip to Antarctica at 26, Matthieu talks through his shift from solo self-funded expeditions to purpose-driven exploration. He explains what drew him to polar landscapes specifically, and they talk in detail about a kite-skiing research-driven traverse he recently did with glaciologist Heidi Sevestre. They discuss what that expedition actually involved logistically - data collection, kites, navigation, no hierarchy. And they get into some of the harder questions facing modern expedition life. The conversation also touches on glaciers, hope, hypocrisy, and whether there's still time to act.For extra insights from the worlds of adventure, exploration and the natural world, you can find The Adventure Podcast+ community on Substack.

This week, Jake and Bob welcome John Edwards (Just a Guy in the Pew) back to the show to continue his story of conversion and the long journey of healing that followed. John opens up about what happened after his powerful encounter with Christ in a jail cell, including the hard work of rebuilding trust with his wife and children, learning to be vulnerable, and surrendering control. He also talks about the struggle to reconcile with himself, especially the self-hatred and false identities that can remain even after receiving forgiveness from God and others. Through his story, John reminds us that conversion and healing is not a one-time event, but an ongoing invitation to allow Christ to transform every part of our lives.    Key Points: Radical conversion does not instantly repair the relationships damaged over years of destructive behavior. Simply stopping addictive behaviors is many times not enough for complete healing. This is because deeper wounds like selfishness and self-focus also need to be healed. Life is not ultimately about ourselves but about loving and serving the people God had entrusted to us. Self-reliance, control, and selfishness are not merely struggles unique to addicts but can quietly affect the lives of many people. Vulnerability is not weakness but an act of courage that allows a person to acknowledge the truth about himself and receive help. Reconciliation reveals God not as an angry judge waiting to punish us but as a loving Father who desires our good and wants to walk with us. The reconciliation of our relationships requires us to examine our own responsibility rather than waiting for other people to change. Reconciling with ourselves requires confronting the lies that attack our identity and continually renewing our minds with the truth of who God says we are. Self-forgiveness is essential because refusing to receive God's forgiveness for ourselves can keep us bound to the identity of our past.

Reflect on Surah Al-Ma'un with Sheikh Mohamed Eid Almuhairi and uncover what it teaches about Salah, the Hereafter and how we treat people. ▶️ Watch more of this series on Tadabbur of the Qur'an: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQM1BksNs60k You may have memorised Surah Al-Ma'un. You may have recited it hundreds of times. But have you ever stopped to ask why Allah places these particular verses together? The Surah begins with the one who denies the Day of Recompense: someone harsh towards the orphan and unconcerned about the poor. Then comes a striking shift: "So woe to those who pray…" Why does a Surah describing someone who rejects the Hereafter suddenly turn to people who pray? What connects Salah with the way you treat others? What does being distracted from prayer really mean? And could someone believe in the Hereafter, yet live in ways that resemble someone who does not? In this episode of Tadabbur of the Qur'an, Sheikh Mohamed Eid Almuhairi reflects on Surah Al-Ma'un, drawing out its deeper connections and showing how the Tafseer of the Salaf helps reveal a much fuller picture. You know the Surah. Now look again. It may be speaking much closer to home than you thought.

Julio Hernandez shares his journey from Mexico to Nashville, exploring the cultural and technical aspects of Mexican cuisine, and how local ingredients influence his cooking at May de la Vida. After the Mexican corn experiment struggled in Tennessee, Julio began exploring Southern varieties. He and his team tasted corn that was milky, sweet, or reminiscent of cornflakes. They studied fat and starch content, learning which kernels could produce a pliable table tortilla and which were better suited to chips, tostadas, flautas, or quesabirria. They eventually found a Southern variety that could respond to the local environment and the needs of the kitchen. The result is not an attempt to reproduce Mexico in Nashville. Julio describes it as Tennessee-Mexican cooking: house-made chorizo with collard greens and smoked ham hock, Mayocoba beans, Tennessee corn tortillas, and pico de gallo that appears only when local tomatoes are in season.

Linda Scarpa grew up loving her father. The rest of the world knew him as one of the most feared men in organized crime. As the daughter of notorious Colombo crime family hit man and FBI informant Gregory Scarpa Sr., Linda lived a life few could imagine. Behind closed doors, she knew him as a devoted father and family man. Outside the home, he was a violent enforcer whose actions left a trail of fear, bloodshed, and unanswered questions. Reconciling those two realities has shaped Linda's entire life. Linda shares her extraordinary story in The Mafia Hit Man's Daughter, co-written with Linda Rosencrance. More than a true-crime memoir, the book explores the emotional cost of growing up in the shadow of organized crime. It is a deeply personal story about family loyalty, betrayal, love, loss, identity, honor, and the lifelong struggle to separate the man she loved as her father from the man the world feared. Her story extends far beyond the pages of her book. Linda has appeared on I Married a Mobster in the popular two-part episode "Daddy's Girl," and has been featured on programs including The Joy Behar Show, The Ricky Lake Show, Mafia Women with Trevor McDonald, and Evil Lives Here. Her life has also been profiled by major media outlets including Newsweek, New York Post, Daily Mail, News Corp Australia, Men's Journal, and numerous other publications. In this episode of The Suffering Podcast, Linda opens up about what it was really like to grow up as the daughter of one of America's most infamous mob figures. This conversation goes beyond organized crime, revealing the emotional weight of loving someone capable of unimaginable violence and the lasting impact that family secrets, trauma, and unconditional love can leave on a person's life.

Statistical physicist Matthieu Wyart joins Tim Scarfe to argue that the answer lies in the hidden hierarchy of data. Language and images are built from parts within parts; depth lets a network recover those coarse-grained variables and escape the curse of dimensionality.The conversation moves from jamming transitions and rough loss surfaces to Chomsky, context-free grammars and machine creativity. Wyart explains why next-token prediction can still recover compositional structure, where current systems fall short of genuine scientific invention, and why predicting latent representations rather than raw tokens could make learning far more sample-efficient.They also examine diffusion models, neural scaling laws and the limits of physics-inspired theory.

Colossians 1:15-23; Charles Johnson, Senior Pastor at RMC; the second sermon in the series "Colossians: Christ Our Treasure."

 What if your life looks good from the outside but still doesn't feel fully yours? This episode is for anyone who has achieved everything they were supposed to achieve and found themselves quietly asking: why do I still feel like something is missing? Erika sits down with Saina Babaee, VP at Siemens, founder of her own fashion label, and mother of twins. Someone who followed the prescribed path with excellence and then had to find herself inside it. This is not a story about burning everything down. It is about what it actually looks like to stop living for everyone else and start building a life that is authentically yours. If you have ever caught yourself thinking: "I'm successful but I feel empty and I don't know why." "I want to start my passion but I don't know where to begin." "I have a good life. So why does something still feel off?" "I keep waiting for the right time to build something on the side." "I'm scared that wanting more makes me ungrateful for what I have." Then this is the episode is for you. In this conversation, Erika and Saina cover: *Why feeling empty despite your success is not a failing but a signal worth listening to *How to identify what you have been carrying since childhood that was never yours to carry *How to break long-held patterns without dismantling your whole life *Why you do not need to quit your job to start building your passion, and how having a 9-5 can actually make starting easier *How to build something on the side while working full time using a structure that fits around your life *What becoming a mother did to Saina's ambition and why it made her more driven, not less *How to lead with heart in corporate without losing results *How to navigate friendship grief and the loneliness of outgrowing people who no longer fit who you are becoming *How to reconnect with the creative, feminine side of yourself that high performance has pushed aside The version of you that has been waiting is not a different person. She is simply the one who finally has permission to exist. SPONSORS:

He then trained under Zen master Su Bong from South Korea, and returned to post-Apartheid South Africa to spend 10 years in apprenticeship with MaMngwevu, a medicine woman from the Xhosa tribe.

What if the secret to building a better business isn't being slightly better than everyone else - but becoming impossible to compare?Josh Lowman is the founder of Gold Front, a category design studio that helps companies create, define and own their categories.In this conversation, Josh explains why differentiation usually gets ignored, how category strategy can align an entire company and why founders need a simpler place in their minds from which to tell their story.But this episode goes beyond strategy.Josh and Jeff explore the tension between love and money, why wanting financial success doesn't invalidate meaningful work, what it means to build a personal brand publicly and how Josh is navigating doubt during difficult seasons in his business.They also unpack the rapidly changing relationship between creativity and AI - from Josh's experiments building an AI-powered operating system for his agency to the increasingly important role of human judgment, emotion and craft.In this episode:• Why being slightly different usually isn't enough• The two ways a business can own its category• How category strategy aligns founders, marketers and product teams• Why great work alone doesn't guarantee a great business• Reconciling creativity, purpose, ambition and money• Building a personal brand without treating LinkedIn like a money machine• Sharing uncertainty instead of pretending to have every answer• How Josh built AI agents around Gold Front's strategy frameworks• The danger of overbuilding with AI• Why processed creativity quickly loses its value• What humans may still contribute that AI cannot• How to find work you genuinely want to do - and frame it differentlyChapters00:00 – We're All Greedy00:44 – What Makes a Good Business?03:13 – The Two Ways to Own Your Category05:51 – From World-Class Agencies to Gold Front08:10 – Why Great Work Wasn't Enough10:34 – Category Strategy as a Company-Wide Idea14:19 – How Ready Must a Company Be to Change?15:19 – Storytelling, Underdogs and Josh's Deeper Motivation17:43 – Reconciling Love, Money and Ambition23:09 – Learning to Actually Sell24:16 – Becoming Josh Lowman in Public26:14 – The Complicated Relationship with Content28:09 – Sharing Doubt When Business Is Down31:29 – Building an AI-Powered Agency OS36:11 – The Danger of Overbuilding with AI37:55 – Turning Expertise into Helpful AI Agents39:42 – The Builder's Brain vs. the Storytelling Brain43:58 – Why AI Creativity Feels Processed46:55 – Finding the Human Advantage51:03 – Josh's Best Advice for Building a Brand53:06 – The Lifelong Desire to Tell StoriesJosh Lowman is the founder of Gold Front.Find him at GoldFront.com and on LinkedIn.Connect with Jeff Abracen on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffabracen/]If you are or know a disruptive influencer who would make a great guest, we'd love to hear from you. Every Like, Share, Subscription and Review means a lot.Cover art by Daniel DevoyMusic by Stephen Voyce©2024-2026 The Disruptive Influence Podcast - Jeff Abracen

In Blue Ocean Strategy: How to Create Uncontested Market Space and Make the Competition Irrelevant, Renée Mauborgne argues that lasting growth does not come from winning market share in crowded existing industries, but from creating entirely new market space that no one is competing in yet. Mauborgne is a professor of strategy at INSEAD and co-director of the INSEAD Blue Ocean Strategy Institute. Blue Ocean Strategy, co-written with W. Chan Kim has sold more than 4 million copies and is recognized as one of the most iconic and impactful strategy books ever written. The new 20th anniversary edition tests the original theory against today's market realities and is enhanced with fresh cases, including NVIDIA's three successive market-creating moves, a new preface that highlights the book's ongoing global impact, and a curated list of over fifty blue ocean cases across diverse industries that expand far beyond those in the original version. In her conversation with Adam Job, senior director at the BCG Institute, Mauborgne discusses when a company should stop competing and start creating, why the search for new demand begins with non-customers rather than customers, how NVIDIA chases “zero-billion-dollar markets,” why differentiation and low cost need not be a trade-off, whether AI's commoditizing effect makes advantage harder to defend, and how to reconcile bold commitment with the case for keeping options open. Key topics discussed: 01:12 | Why beating the competition is the wrong goal 02:34 | How to know when it's time to shift from competing to creating 05:26 | Finding a blue ocean: value innovation and the role of non-customers 07:02 | Where the process starts inside an organization 09:25 | NVIDIA and the pursuit of zero-billion-dollar markets 12:46 | Breaking the trade-off between differentiation and low cost 16:21 | What prompted the new edition 18:33 | Will blue oceans stay defensible as AI commoditizes capabilities? 24:17 | Why using AI only for speed and efficiency is a trap 25:36 | Reconciling bold commitment with the need for optionality Additional inspirations from Renée Mauborgne: Blue Ocean Shift: Beyond Competing—Proven Steps to Inspire Confidence and Seize New Growth (Grand Central Publishing, 2017)

In this episode, we continue our book study on Friendship in the Lord and reflect on how loving appreciation and reconciliation are the places where friendship matures. We talk about why healthy adult friendships draw us closer to the Lord, how the unique gifts of women and men reveal different facets of God's love, and how learning to behold another's beauty without trying to grasp or possess it calls forth our true identity. We also discuss the importance of recognizing how we've hurt others, expressing sincere sorrow, and allowing others to do the same. As we bring our wounds, suffering, and sin into the love of Christ, we discover that the very places we fear most can become the biggest places of resurrection.   Other Resources Mentioned: Restore the Glory Podcast on Confession (Parts 1-3) S18 Forgiveness Meditation (with questions from the book Forgiving as Unity with Christ)  S11 Forgiveness Meditation with Sister Miriam   Announcement: You can buy your copy of Friendship in the Lord from Ave Maria Press (or Amazon).   Journal Questions: Am I maturing as a friend? What does the Holy Spirit want to teach me through my friendships? Am I currently experiencing conflict or frustration in a relationship? What is the pain or trigger I feel beneath the conflict? Can I receive the gift of beauty without trying to grasp or possess it? How have I failed to uphold the dignity of my friends? Am I experiencing the fullness of who I am? What parts of myself am I hiding from my relationships?   Discussion Questions: When have you experienced your own uniqueness in a friendship? Did you experience your uniqueness as a gift to give or as an insecurity to hide? How is the Lord inviting you to more freely receive your friends rather than possessing them? How have you participated in belittling or sarcasm in your relationships? How have you participated in or been on the receiving end of judgment within friendships? Where does the Lord want to love you into a place of freedom?   Quote to Ponder: "The intimacy of adult friendship in the Spirit can teach us to aspire to the fullest possible intimacy with the Lord himself. The tenderness of one friend toward another is the image of God's own tenderness, when the friends truly love each other in the Spirit." (Friendship in the Lord, Page 62) Scripture for Lectio: "Therefore as God's chosen people, holy and dearly beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues, put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity."

On today's Inner Life, Fr. Marcel Taillon joins to help us in reconciling with God. Janet - I currently go to the parish near my house. I have a hard time going to confession there. I find myself going somewhere else because I'm embarrassed and they might judge me since I know the priest. Break 1 Theresa - Going to confession when you have mortal sins. Confessing the same things over and over. My experience, it gives you the grace to not do that anymore. Going to confession gives me that grace. Don't wait until it's mortal sin. Saskia - I'm new, not a Catholic, but going to start OCIA soon. I went to confession once and told the priest I didn't know what to do. I almost committed a mortal sin. Would I have to confess that? What about sins that are hard to confess like abortion? How do I get over this fear? LJ - Do parish priests recognize your voice or even a medal hanging on your neck?

In this 10th episode interview, Jason Christoff discusses the theory of "uglification," arguing that the modern shift toward brutalist architecture and unsightly fashion is a deliberate form of subconscious mind control. He explains that beautiful, geometric environments elevate human spirit and frequency, whereas drab, concrete structures are engineered to weaken the population's resolve. The conversation links this trend to social engineering tactics designed by ruling groups to foster a lower-vibration, more submissive society. By citing research on how vibration affects water and cellular health, Christoff suggests that aesthetic degradation in music and art serves as an invisible weapon against public well-being. Ultimately, Jason encourages individuals to reclaim their power by intentionally surrounding themselves with beauty, art, and high-quality nutrition. https://www.planetmindcontrol.com/ Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 0:00 Enshitification 7:12 Join our monthly MASTERCLASS every second Wednesday of the month!

You have already journeyed to here.  Maybe your relationship is hurting and in pain.  Maybe your connection has gone cold.  But however you got here, whatever the path, you want to get somewhere different. Somewhere better. It may seem cliche, but it is a journey.  And this last part of the journey, it has some stops along the way. Many times, people think (and want) it to be a linear path, stopping along the way, but arriving at the end, reconciled and in love. Those four big stops? Apology Forgiving Trusting Reconciling Many assume that one follows the other, just points along the road.  But it is more like a subway system that might arrive at one station, having never paused at another.  You may pass one or more, or even arrive at each one, seemingly out of order. In reality, each of those four stops are distinct and separate.  They can happen separate from, or even without, the other stops. Let's talk about these four stops in this episode of the Save The Marriage Podcast. Listen below. RELATED RESOURCES What's Your Apology? Ready to Forgive? What is Trust?

The Reconciling Love of The Father - Kudzo Ravengai | 21/6/2026 by Every Nation Rosebank

Episode Description:In this episode from the early days of The James Altucher Show, James sits down with T. Harv Eker, author of Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, to examine why earning money, keeping money, and feeling secure about money are three very different skills.Harv recounts cycling through 14 jobs and 12 businesses before building a successful chain of fitness stores—and then losing much of what he had earned. That experience forced him to confront what he calls a person's “money blueprint”: the beliefs about wealth, work, success, and self-worth that are often absorbed long before we recognize them.Although this conversation was originally recorded years ago, Harv's advice still applies today. He explains how to separate your identity from your financial results, challenge inherited beliefs, create income that does not depend entirely on your time, and recognize the thoughts that quietly keep you inside your comfort zone.What You'll Learn:Why making money and keeping money require different skillsHow childhood experiences can shape your unconscious expectations about wealthA four-step process for replacing beliefs that no longer support youWhy Harv believes active income should eventually be converted into passive incomeHow the words “Thank you for sharing” can interrupt an unhelpful thought before it controls your behaviorTimestamped Chapters: [01:07] How your childhood creates a financial blueprint [02:57] Harv's 14 jobs, 12 businesses, and repeated failures [04:42] Persistence, entrepreneurship, and learning inside another business [06:44] Building and selling a chain of fitness stores [10:52] The difference between making money and keeping it [12:21] What happens when self-worth becomes tied to net worth [13:53] Recognizing the financial patterns inherited from his father [14:39] The family crisis that forced Harv to change [17:41] Why a lack of money may be a symptom rather than the problem [18:10] Studying conditioning, biofeedback, and behavioral change [20:02] Harv's experience with Zen practice [21:46] Reconciling spirituality, generosity, ambition, and wealth [23:47] Awareness, understanding, disassociation, and reconditioning [26:32] Challenging the belief that wealthy people are inherently bad [30:00] How new evidence can weaken an old belief [31:35] Why Harv prioritizes passive income [35:13] The business formula: model, systemize, and duplicate [39:49] The four words Harv uses to interrupt negative thinking [43:07] How to respond to negative friends and family members [45:58] Growing from informal coaching to an international training company [50:07] Three questions for deciding what you genuinely want [56:15] Final thoughtsAdditional Resources:T.

This week we continue with our summer series “Disputing with God,” picking up where we left off last time with the story of the repair of the relationship between God and Israel after the incident of the Golden Calf, as told in Exodus 33:1–23 and 34:1–9. God is at first so angry about the Golden Calf that God seems to be finished with Israel, sending the messenger with them to the Promised Land but the divine presence remaining on Sinai lest God's anger consume them. By the end, though, through the mediation Moses, God and Israel seem to accept one another as they are. The people confess they are stiff-necked, but God commits to being with them in spite of their shortcomings. Likewise, God reveals a divine Self that is anger as well as compassion, but nonetheless the people would rather stay in the wilderness with God than to enter the Promised Land alone. This relationship is messier than we might like, but God and the people remain together in the messiness, committed to a future together.

"God just kept putting joy in front of me and encouraging me to open my heart to it."In this second half of my conversation with author Leanne Davidson, we move into some of the deeper questions grieving parents often wrestle with after child loss: Why? What if? Could I have done something differently? Will I ever feel joy again?After losing her son, Mikael, to a fentanyl overdose, Leanne has walked through those questions herself. With honesty and faith, she shares what she's learning about trusting God in the midst of unanswered questions, laying down guilt, and allowing joy back into a heart that has been forever changed.Leanne also offers practical and compassionate wisdom for families and friends who want to support grieving parents well.Together we discuss:• Reconciling faith with unanswered questions • Why choosing trust matters when we don't understand • Guilt after child loss — especially after addiction-related loss • The difference between conviction and guilt • Navigating grief within families when everyone grieves differently • Giving one another grace and changing expectations after loss • What to do when you don't have the strength to pray or open your Bible • The difference between happiness and lasting joy • Leanne's idea of "joy bombs" and recognizing God's gifts in everyday moments • Practical ways to support grieving parents • How grief changes us and why there is no returning to "normal" • The hope of heaven and seeing our children againThroughout our conversation, Leanne continually points us back to God's faithfulness and His tender care for grieving parents. Her reminders are simple but powerful: God sees us, carries us, and remains near even when our hearts feel permanently changed.Resources & Links:Listen to the first half of our conversation HERE.  Visit Leanne Davidson's website HERE.  A Beautiful Pain: Reflections of a Mother's Journey of GriefTattered Hearts & Hopeful Souls: A Christian Devotional for Grieving HeartsI would love to hear your thoughts on the show.

Dolores Huerta built a lasting movement with Cesar Chavez.  And after waiting decades, she has decided to share the story of how Chavez abused her. Dolores Huerta told the New York Times that she felt pressured to have sex with Cesar Chavez, while on a work trip in 1960. Six years later  — after they had founded the union for farmworkers–  she says Chavez raped her.  Shortly after the Times story came out, Huerta spoke to Latino USA host Maria Hinojosa. Hinojosa shared what she learned with NPR's Ailsa Chang. For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Alejandra Marquez Janse, with audio engineering by Ted Mebane.It was edited by Courtney Dorning.Our executive producer is Sami Yenigun.To manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
