Adversity isn't optional—your response is. In this episode of The Impossible Life, Garrett and Nick tackle one of the most pivotal mindset shifts every person of faith must confront: Will you face adversity as a warrior or wallow in self-pity? Drawing from biblical truth, real-life struggle, and personal transformation, this conversation pulls no punches. Garrett opens up about his own internal war—the part of him that wants to go to battle, and how God uses war as fire to reveal, refine, and prepare us. You'll explore the two paths every person faces in adversity:

In this episode, I'm joined by the incredible Felly Day, founder of FD Studio and content repurposing specialist for podcasters. Felly takes us behind the scenes of her experience inside Dreamium, where she transformed her done-for-you services into a full-blown offer ecosystem and finally started feeling excited (and confident) about selling again.Before Dreamium, Felly was feeling disconnected from her retainer offer, unsure about her pricing, and frustrated that her suite didn't flow. But through deep work on her signature offer, Repurposing Unlimited, and the creation of complementary offers like The Remix and Repurposing Limited, she found her groove and her positioning. Felly shares how she used the Offer Blueprint, market research, and iterative design to develop offers that are easier to sell, better to deliver, and truly aligned with how she wants to work.If you've ever felt stuck in service-mode, overwhelmed by your offer suite, or unsure how to price and structure what you do, this episode will show you what's possible when you pause and do the strategic work.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeHow Felly went from a disjointed service suite to a strategic offer lineupWhy confidence in your delivery system makes marketing easierThe importance of validating structure, pricing, and delivery with real clientsHow Dreamium supported her to refine, evolve, and scale her done-for-you offersWhat it really takes to build an ecosystem (not just a bunch of random offers)"Once I stopped trying to make my offers look like everyone else's and actually structured them for how I work best, everything clicked" – Felly DayConnect with Felly:https://fellyday.com/https://www.instagram.com/fellyday/https://www.threads.com/@fellyday ::Follow + Connect with Mehttps://www.instagram.com/ceels.lockley/https://www.threads.net/@ceels.lockley ::Free MasterclassLearn more about the different types of offers and map out your offer ecosystem:https://ceelslockley.co/the-line-up::Join my CommunitySign up to my free monthly events for service pros, Sisters of Service:https://ceels-lockley.myflodesk.com/sisters-of-service ::Work with meJoin my group program for service providers who want to design a profitable offer suite over 6 months:https://ceelslockley.co/dreamiumCreate an industry-leading offer ecosystem with me 1:1: https://ceelslockley.co/main-event-experience

Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice. In this episode, "Refining TSC Care: Phenotyping, Clustering, and Clinical Impact," Ajay Gupta, MD, director of the Tuberous Sclerosis Program at Cleveland Clinic, discusses recently published research that used unsupervised clustering to group over 900 patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) into four clinically meaningful phenotypic clusters. He outlines the distinct traits of each cluster—ranging from tumor risk to cognitive impairment—and explains how variant-specific genetic data helped reinforce these categories. Gupta, who also serves as a professor of neurology at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner School of Medicine, also explores the clinical value of these findings for surveillance planning, early intervention, and future therapeutic trials. He emphasizes that while overlap between clusters exists, this approach lays essential groundwork for precision care and more targeted research in TSC. Looking for more epilpesy discussion?

Seed oils have recently become a hotly debated topic in nutrition, fueled by sensational claims on social media. In this episode, the central theme is examining whether seed oils are truly harmful or if they've been unjustly demonized. The discussion tackles prevalent claims – that seed oils drive inflammation, oxidation, and chronic disease – and compares them against the current scientific evidence. This is highly relevant to nutrition science and clinical practice today, as many patients and practitioners are encountering conflicting information about vegetable oils. By exploring the origins of seed oils, their biochemical effects, health outcome data, and the misinformation ecosystem, the episode aims to clarify how omega-6 rich seed oils fit into a healthy diet and what evidence-based guidelines say. Timestamps 01:00 Understanding terms: PUFA, Linoleic Acid, Omega-6 05:20 Do seed oils cause inflammation? 12:44 Omega-3 and omega-6 16:43 Inflammatory markers and linoleic acid 19:22 Oxidation and cooking oils 26:25 Refining processes and health concerns 30:32 Health outcomes and polyunsaturated fats 35:18 Evidence cited by anti-seed oil proponents 43:48 Conclusions Related Resources Join the Sigma email newsletter for free Subscribe to Sigma Nutrition Premium Enroll in the next cohort of our Applied Nutrition Literacy course Sigma Statement: Seed Oils on Trial: Is the Panic Justified?

Let's talk about what happens when you start refining your offers. Spoiler alert: it's not just spreadsheets, post-it notes, and “aha” moments. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the emotional chaos that often shows up when you're doing the deep, strategic work of shaping offers that actually reflect your brilliance. If you've been feeling confused, overwhelmed, or even a little bit like a fraud, this one's for you.I get it. You sit down to tweak your offer lineup and suddenly it feels like you're staring into the abyss. You doubt everything. You question if you're even cut out for this. Maybe you've even had the urge to scrap it all and start from scratch. That's not a sign that something's gone wrong. That's a sign you're right on track. We dive into the common emotional stages of offer refinement: confusion, mistrust, self-doubt, and that classic “burn it all down” moment. But we don't stop there. I'll show you how to ride the wave through the winter season of your business and into spring, where things start to click, confidence rises, and you finally feel proud (and ready!) to talk about your offers again.If you're knee-deep in the messy middle, know this: you're not doing it wrong. You're doing it right. What to Expect in This Episode:Why confusion and overwhelm are actually signs of deep strategic workWhat “burn it all down” mode really means (and how to move through it)How visibility and self-trust are connected in your offer strategyThe emotional seasons of refining offers—and why spring always follows winterA gentle reminder that doing it alone makes it harder than it needs to be"The clarity will come, but you have to go through the messy bit first." ::Follow + Connect with Mehttps://www.instagram.com/ceels.lockley/https://www.threads.net/@ceels.lockley ::Free MasterclassLearn more about the different types of offers and map out your offer ecosystem:https://ceelslockley.co/the-line-up::Join my CommunitySign up to my free monthly events for service pros, Sisters of Service:https://ceels-lockley.myflodesk.com/sisters-of-service ::Work with meJoin my group program for service providers who want to design a profitable offer suite over 6 months:https://ceelslockley.co/dreamiumCreate an industry-leading offer ecosystem with me 1:1: https://ceelslockley.co/main-event-experience

You've heard me talk about offer mistakes before, but this time, we're going deeper. In this episode, I'm sharing five of the most common (and costly) mistakes I see service providers make when creating their offers. If you've ever DIY-ed your offers, taken advice from the wrong people, or underpriced because you wanted to be “accessible”, this one's for you.These aren't just the obvious ones, such as poor pricing or vague positioning. I'm pulling back the curtain on things like how your peer's feedback might be holding you back, why “accessible pricing” can actually damage your business, and why building an offer based on what one client said once is not a strategy.Whether you're designing your very first signature offer or reworking an entire ecosystem, this episode will help you avoid the pitfalls that lead to low conversions, mismatched clients, and a shaky reputation. What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy DIY-ing your offer strategy rarely leads to strong resultsThe problem with taking pricing advice from your partner or peersHow to build offers from your signature process, not assumptionsWhy trying to be “accessible” can attract the wrong clientsThe importance of knowing exactly who your offer is for (and how to speak to them)"Pricing is positioning. It doesn't just determine your income, it determines who walks through your virtual door." ::Follow + Connect with Mehttps://www.instagram.com/ceels.lockley/https://www.threads.net/@ceels.lockley ::Free MasterclassLearn more about the different types of offers and map out your offer ecosystem:https://ceelslockley.co/the-line-up::Join my CommunitySign up to my free monthly events for service pros, Sisters of Service:https://ceels-lockley.myflodesk.com/sisters-of-service ::Work with meJoin my group program for service providers who want to design a profitable offer suite over 6 months:https://ceelslockley.co/dreamiumCreate an industry-leading offer ecosystem with me 1:1: https://ceelslockley.co/main-event-experience

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 58 minutesSynopsis: Tonight (4/30/25), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we finished the perek! This was due, in part, to the fact that I didn't have my usual chavrusa this week AND didn't have time to prepare shiur. Nevertheless, we reviewed what we did last time and refined the theory I came up with, running it through the whole perek and bringing it down to the level of the practical. We found support in Saadia Gaon and got some nice Tehilim methodology from Hoil Moshe. I'm happy with how our analysis turned out, and I'm eager to start whatever we take up next!-----מקורות:תהלים פרק מדמצודת דוד - תהלים מד:כא-כברד"ק שםדברים ח:ז-כהואיל משהפירוש רס"ג-----The total cost of producing my five podcasts in 2024 came to $1,455—an expense I would have otherwise had to cover myself.

Most people believe the sugar they use and consume everyday comes from sugarcane, but in the United States about 60% of it is Union-made from sugar beets in the cooler climates of the northern Midwest and Western regions of the country. BCTGM members in Michigan, North Dakota, Montana, Minnesota, Idaho and Wyoming process nearly 100% of the sugar from sugar beets – for companies like Michigan Sugar, Amalgamated Sugar, Wyoming Sugar, Southern Minnesota Beet Sugar Cooperative, American Crystal and Sidney Sugar. Much of it ends up in bags on your grocery shelves, but a lot also goes into other food products, such as BCTGM-made Kellogg's and General Mills cereals and other sweet snacks.

The results of refining processes are all around us, from the fuel in our cars, to the plastics that keep food fresh, to the asphalt on our streets, and beyond. But while refining in general is ubiquitous, there are challenges, including cyclical demand, efficiency and emissions requirements, and maintaining profitability. In this comprehensive interview, Brian Heasley, KBR's global director of Refining and Clean Fuels, discusses current obstacles refiners face, including policy hurdles and barriers to entry for clean fuel, and how they can capitalize on opportunities through product diversification, circularity and refining residue oil.

In this latest series, Hydrocarbon Processing will analyze the global refining industry. This first episode provides a breakdown of active projects globally, current capital spending on refining projects, and future distillation and secondary unit capacity additions.

When the world feels heavy, many of us look to books for distraction, inspiration, or reassurance. Today's guest has a unique spin on what she's seeking and would love Anne's help in figuring out how the types of reads she wants right now fit into her existing to-be-read (TBR) system. Émilie Weidl lives in Wales, where she's taken a year off before starting her PhD. When she's not reading or volunteering, you'll likely find her out for a walk or a hike, exploring the beautiful country around her. Émilie has always had a good grasp on her reading tastes, but lately she's found that the historical fiction she's always loved isn't working well for her. She's also having a hard time reading nonfiction because the topics she's been drawn to in the past feel harrowing right now. Plus, she's found that the TBR management system she's relied on for ages isn't work as well as it used to. Émilie's looking for absolutely gut-wrenching books that will distract her from her real-world worries, and a system that will help her tee up books she'll really enjoy reading right now. Anne has ideas for Émilie, as you'll hear today. Suggest gut-wrenching reads you think Émilie might enjoy and see the full list of titles discussed today on our show notes page at whatshouldireadnextpodcast.com/473.

On March 25th, 2025, the Supreme Court will hear oral argument to resolve two circuit splits arising under the Clean Air Act (CAA) provision regarding judicial venue: EPA v. Calumet Shreveport Refining, L.L.C. (23-1229), and Oklahoma v. EPA (23-1067). The outcome of these cases will hinge on the Court’s interpretation of the CAA’s unique venue provision, 42 U.S.C. § 7607(b)(1). The CAA states that challenges to “nationally applicable” actions may be filed only in the D.C. Circuit. 42 U.S.C. § 7607(b)(1). Conversely, challenges to CAA actions that are “locally or regionally applicable” may generally be filed only in the appropriate circuit court for the region. Id. But there is an exception: actions that are “based on a determination of nationwide scope or effect” must be filed in the D.C. Circuit “if in taking such action the Administrator finds and publishes that such action is based on such a determination.” Id.What is the meaning and scope of this exception? How far may EPA go in picking where to litigate its final actions? And what does this mean for denials of State Implementation Plans (SIPs), small oil refineries seeking Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) exemptions, and other EPA actions affecting the regulated community? Tune in as Jimmy Conde and Garrett Kral offer their initial impressions following oral argument.Featuring:James Conde, Partner, Boyden Gray PLLCModerator: Garrett Kral, Administrative and Environmental Law Attorney To register, click the link above.

Starr Blackshere is a powerhouse in the beauty industry, a visionary artist whose journey from childhood fascination to professional mastery is nothing short of inspiring. With an innate eye for detail and an unwavering commitment to excellence, Starr has transformed her passion for beauty into a thriving career that spans hair, makeup, and the intricate art of brow design. Born and raised in San Diego, California, Starr's journey into beauty began at an early age, influenced by the dazzling world of pageantry. Her curiosity and natural talent led her to refine her skills in hair styling and makeup artistry long before she stepped into the professional space. By her teenage years, she was already styling hair for friends and adult clients alike, demonstrating an unparalleled dedication to her craft. Her career took a transformative turn when she joined MAC Cosmetics - a brand that not only shaped her technical expertise but also introduced her to the world of high fashion, editorial artistry, and corporate professionalism. She became a key figure in the industry, opening MAC's first Harlem store and later working in the elite Flatiron District showroom, where she collaborated with some of the most influential names in beauty and fashion. Working alongside legends such as Charlotte Tilbury and Pat McGrath at New York Fashion Week refined her artistry and deepened her passion for creating beauty that transcends trends. While her expertise spans multiple disciplines, Starr found her true calling in brow artistry. Her innovative approach to eyebrows goes beyond shaping - she sees brows as an expression of identity, confidence, and self-assurance. Through years of refining her technique, she has mastered nano artistry, a cutting-edge approach to permanent makeup that enhances natural beauty with precision and elegance. Her philosophy is simple yet profound: beauty should complement, not overpower. Her work is celebrated for its ability to bring out the best in each individual, seamlessly blending artistry with authenticity. In 2021, Starr took a bold step in her journey and founded Blackshere Beauty, a premier beauty studio dedicated to offering top-tier services in makeup, lashes, and brows.   She believes that creativity thrives in an environment of passion and fulfillment, and she instills this philosophy into every aspect of her work. For Starr, success isn't measured solely by accolades or financial milestones - it's found in the joy of creating, the confidence of her clients, and the lasting impact of her artistry. Through her journey, she has proven that with dedication, adaptability, and a fearless pursuit of passion, the possibilities are limitless.    Key Takeaways 1. Find Your Niche and Own It – Starr explored multiple areas of beauty before discovering her true passion for brow artistry. Your journey may take different paths, but once you find your calling, commit to mastering it. 2. Stay Open to Learning and Evolving – From hair to makeup to brows, Starr constantly refined her skills by seeking new knowledge. Growth comes from embracing change and staying curious about your craft. 3. Step Outside Your Comfort Zone – Moving from San Diego to New York City and stepping into high-profile roles wasn't easy, but Star took the leap. If you want to elevate your career, be willing to take bold steps. 4. Persistence Opens Doors – Starr's journey to MAC wasn't guaranteed, but she prepared, strategized, and positioned herself for success. Keep showing up, refining your skills, and opportunities will follow. 5. Attention to Detail Sets You Apart – Whether it's shaping brows or enhancing a face with makeup, Starr's precision and artistry have made her stand out. The little details can make a big impact in your work. 6. Confidence and Professionalism Are Key – Breaking into new spaces requires more than just talent. Starr's ability to present herself professionally and articulate her expertise helped her grow in the industry. 7. Protect Your Joy and Passion – Success isn't just about money or accolades; it's about finding joy in your work. Starr believes that happiness fuels creativity, and staying passionate is the ultimate key to long-term success.    Quotes 1. “Success as a creative isn't about how much money you make or how many jobs you have - it's about protecting your joy. When you find joy in your craft, creativity flows effortlessly.” 2. “Your journey will have twists and turns, but every experience, good or bad, teaches you something valuable. Stay open, stay learning, and keep evolving.” 3. “Confidence comes from preparation. If you want an opportunity, do the work, sharpen your skills, and show up ready. When the door opens, you'll be prepared to walk through it.” 4. “Excellence is in the details. Whether it's brows, makeup, or business. Refining the small things sets you apart and turns good work into great work.” Connect with Starr Website -  www.Blacksherebeauty.com Instagram -  Instagram.com/Blacksherebeauty Facebook -   Facebook.Com/Blacksherebeautyllc Email - Starr.blackshere@gmail.Com

A case in which the Court will decide whether challenges by small oil refineries seeking exemptions from the requirements of the Clean Air Act's Renewable Fuel Standard program should be heard exclusively in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C.

Most traditions of herbal medicine across the world use the fundamental principle of antipathetic medicine in their approach to therapeutics. But in the practice of alchemical medicine—based on Paracelsianism— and in astro-herbalism, another approach is commonly used: sympathetic medicine. In this episode, we'll explore some of the principles of sympathetic medicine, how it differs from the antipathetic approach, and how we can work with it to deepen our understanding of plant to planet correspondences.   Here's an overview of what you'll learn: The key differences between sympathetic and antipathetic medicine How to think through planetary correspondences in plants and more importantly, in practice The various layers of herbal sympathy to planets such as organ affinities, energetics, and herbal actions How herbs can paradoxically embody both sympathetic AND antipathetic qualities to a singular planetary force Refining clinical application through the Triune System Warning: this is a slightly more advanced discussion relating to astro-herbalism and planetary correspondences in plants. If you're not familiar with this topic it might be a bit complex!   ———————————— CONNECT WITH SAJAH AND WHITNEY ———————————— To get free in depth mini-courses and videos, visit our blog at:  http://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com   Get daily inspiration and plant wisdom on our Facebook and Instagram channels: http://www.facebook.com/EvolutionaryHerbalism https://www.instagram.com/evolutionary_herbalism/   Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyP63opAmcpIAQg1M9ShNSQ   Get a free 5-week course when you buy a copy of the book, Evolutionary Herbalism: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/evolutionary-herbalism-book/   ———————————— ABOUT THE PLANT PATH ———————————— The Plant Path is a window into the world of herbal medicine.

If you want to offer private pay packages in your future or existing private practice to better serve your clients (and yourself!), tune in to this episode!Today I'm talking with SLP Lauren Thompson, owner of Well-Fed Feeding and Swallowing Therapy in Londonderry, New Hampshire. I've loved watching Lauren flourish after going through our programs and I'm so excited for her to share the one thing that has recently transformed her business.In this episode, Lauren shares how transitioning to private pay packages helps her balance accessibility for her clients and sustainability for her business.Lauren Thompson, MS, CCC-SLP, CLC, is a Speech-Language Pathologist, Certified Lactation Counselor, and the owner of Well Fed Feeding and Swallowing Therapy. Lauren founded Well Fed to offer families expert, evidence-based feeding support—without the red tape of insurance delays or the frustration of waitlists stretching for months.Realizing that simply being out of network wasn't enough to distinguish her practice from traditional in-network clinics, Lauren reimagined her service model to better meet the needs of families. She introduced visit packages that provide transparency around both cost and time commitment, allowing caregivers to invest in their child's feeding journey with clarity and confidence. These flexible packages enable her to offer semi-intensive therapy, gradually taper services as families build skills and confidence, or front-load support before major life transitions, such as vacations or milestones.Through this innovative approach, Lauren has not only built a sustainable, thriving practice but has also empowered families with individualized feeding therapy that fits their needs—not a rigid, one-size-fits-all schedule.In Today's Episode, We Discuss:Lauren's original plan to be a physical therapist and why she switched to SLPProviding personalized in-home care for familiesShifting her business model to private pay packages When to think about having patients come to see you in your own spaceHow packaged pricing creates financial security and predictabilityImproving client commitment (which results in fewer no-shows!)
