SHOW NOTES: Happy Halloween weekend! Once spooky season is officially behind us, it's time to turn things over and get ready for the real holiday hustle. We are sharing easy ways to prep your kitchen and dining areas for all the extra cooking, baking, entertaining, and guests you'll have. Plus, we're tackling exterior maintenance tips before the deep freeze sets in. Stay tuned to hear all this and more! - Holiday Kitchen Prep: We offer easy tips to prep your kitchen for the holidays, emphasizing deep cleaning the oven well in advance of a major feast and clearing out expired items from the fridge and freezer to make space for groceries and leftovers. - Refresh Your Dining Room: We provide quick and affordable ways to refresh your dining room, focusing on simple centerpieces and cozy lighting upgrades. - Making Space for Guests: If you're hosting holiday guests but don't have a spare room, find out how to create a warm overnight space using visual separation, high-quality air mattresses, and thoughtful bedside basics. - Winterizing Pipes: To prevent costly water damage from burst pipes, we discuss important winterizing tips for your outdoor space.   Q & A: - Mike from Little Rock, AR, is listing his house for sale after three years of piecemeal remodeling and wants to know the best way to advertise the improvements. He should create an inventory list of all that was done, including dates for things like energy-saving updates, as this detail is very appealing to buyers. - Marty in Cape May, NJ, has a tankless water heater and is frustrated that it takes almost five minutes for hot water to reach her kitchen sink. We explain that the issue is the physical distance the water must travel through the pipes, not the type of water heater. - Mark in Ohio is attempting a budget kitchen remodel and is considering IKEA cabinets, but is concerned about their durability. We confirm that our experience with IKEA kitchen cabinets suggests they are good quality, very well priced, and are notably easy to install. - Mike in Florida recently moved and had an AC technician recommend installing a UV light. We suggest that the technician was likely trying to upsell and give Mike some other useful tips besides relying on an expensive UV light. - Larry in Connecticut needs to replace two aging water heaters in his attic and asked whether a recirculating pump or a tankless heater is the better solution. We caution against adding a recirculating pump to the old units and note that while a tankless heater is small and efficient, Larry should consider whether one small unit could meet all his hot water needs.   ASK A QUESTION: Need help with your own home improvement or décor question?

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for October 29th Publish Date:  October 29th Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, October 29th and Happy Birthday to Richard Dryfuess I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal 2025 Smyrna Veterans Day Ceremony MUST Ministries opens clinic, offering affordable medical care Metro Atlanta transit payment system refresh coming soon All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 3 STORY 1: 2025 Smyrna Veterans Day Ceremony  The 2025 Smyrna Veterans Day Ceremony kicks off at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11 at the Veterans Memorial on King Street. It’s free—parking too—and open to everyone. If it rains? No problem, they’ll move it to the Smyrna Community Center. This year’s keynote speaker is retired U.S. Air Force 1st Lt. David “Shark” Waldrop, a man with stories that sound straight out of a movie. Back in 1967, flying an F-105 Thunderchief over North Vietnam, Waldrop chased down MiG-17s at MACH 1.3, dodged missiles, and took out enemy fighters with nerves of steel and a 20mm Gatling gun. Waldrop flew 105 combat missions, survived being shot down, and earned three Silver Stars, three Distinguished Flying Crosses, and 12 Air Medals. After the Air Force, he spent 32 years flying for Delta and even flew F-8 Crusaders as a Marine reservist. He’s a Nashville native, now living in Cobb County with his wife, Sue, and their two grown sons. Don’t miss the chance to hear his incredible story. STORY 2: MUST Ministries opens clinic, offering affordable medical care  MUST Ministries just took a big step forward: on-site health care. On Oct. 1, the nonprofit opened the MUST Care Clinic, offering affordable—or even free—primary and behavioral health care. “Our ‘why’ is simple,” said MUST CEO Ike Reighard at the ribbon cutting. “We’re here to serve our neighbors in need.” The clinic, staffed by Eastchester Family Services, replaces their mobile medical unit with a permanent space, open three days a week. In just 10 days, they’ve already treated 65 people. MUST raised $1.4 million to open the clinic but needs $600,000 annually to keep it running. The clinic, located at 1260 Cobb Parkway North, is open Monday through Wednesday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. STORY 3: Metro Atlanta transit payment system refresh coming soon  Heading downtown for a game or concert? If you’re taking MARTA, get ready for some changes—fare gates are getting a 21st-century upgrade. MARTA announced Monday it’s rolling out new contactless fare equipment. The new gates will be easier to use (no more fumbling with cards), and a smartphone app is on the way, letting riders pay with a mobile wallet. Finally. The “Better Breeze” system will also expand to CobbLinc and Ride Gwinnett soon. But don’t toss your old Breeze card just yet—MARTA says the full switch won’t happen until spring. Fares? Still $2.50. “We’re keeping prices steady, but the system? Long overdue for an upgrade,” said MARTA Interim CEO Jonathan Hunt. Oh, and in a few years, you might not even need a wallet at all. Thanks to a new Georgia law, digital driver’s licenses are coming, though police have until 2027 to get the tech to scan them. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 3 STORY 4: KSU associate professor leads effort to strengthen juvenile justice programs through data analysis   Every year, hundreds of kids leave Georgia’s juvenile justice system, hoping for a fresh start. But staying on that path? That’s the hard part. Kennesaw State’s Austin Brown is tackling it head-on with the Annual Recidivism Report, funded by a $62,000 grant from the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice. Brown’s team digs into the data—messy, complicated, real-world data—to figure out what’s working and what’s not. “These aren’t just numbers,” Brown said. “They’re kids. Real kids with real stories.” One big takeaway? The gap between male and female recidivism rates is shrinking, a sign that programs targeting young men are making a difference. For Brown, it’s not just about stats—it’s about second chances. STORY 5: All Saints’ Sunday at First Presbyterian Church of Marietta  First Presbyterian Church of Marietta, over on Church Street, is inviting the community to join them for All Saints’ Sunday on Nov. 2 in the Great Hall. All Saints’ Day started as a way to honor early Christian martyrs, but over the centuries, it’s become a time to remember anyone whose faith has shaped our lives. Worship services are at 8:30 and 11 a.m., with gratitude and reflection at the heart of it all. Then, from 5 to 6 p.m., there’s a special concert and remembrance service led by Rev. Joe Evans and the Chancel Choir. Expect music selections from Dolly Parton, John Rutter, and Craig Courtney, plus a chance to add loved ones’ names to a prayer weave—a beautiful symbol of love’s lasting connection. Questions? Reach out to Kelly Dewar at kellydewar@fpcmarietta.org or 770-427-0293. Break: STORY 6: Police: Marietta man killed in shooting involving Smyrna police died of self-inflicted wound    A Marietta man who died after a confrontation with Smyrna police last Friday morning was killed by a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to Smyrna Police. Darrick Desawn Rooks, 46, was found dead in a stolen U-Haul truck after a traffic stop near Concord Road and McClinden Avenue. Initially, the GBI reported that a gunshot was fired from the U-Haul, prompting officers to return fire. However, Smyrna police later clarified that Rooks’ fatal injury was self-inflicted, a conclusion confirmed by the Cobb County Medical Examiner. No officers were hurt. The GBI is still investigating, with findings to be reviewed by the Cobb County District Attorney. STORY 7: SNAP benefits to halt Nov. 1 due to government shutdown Starting Nov. 1, SNAP benefits won’t be available if the federal government shutdown drags on, the Georgia Department of Human Services announced Friday. SNAP, which is fully funded by Congress, relies on federal dollars—money that’s now tied up. The USDA told state officials there’s not enough funding to cover November benefits. For now, recipients can still use whatever’s left on their EBT cards, but after Nov. 1? Those cards won’t work. “Plan ahead,” Human Services urged. “Shop for what you need now.” Check balances at connectebt.com or the mobile app. And don’t submit duplicate applications—it won’t speed things up. We’ll have closing comments after this. Break: INGLES 3 Signoff-   Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.

Bereits im Jahr 2018 beschrieb Daniel Stelter in seinem Bestseller Das Märchen vom reichen Land: Wie die Politik uns ruiniert den absehbaren Niedergang Deutschlands. Mittlerweile ist allen klar, dass ein großer Teil seiner Prognosen eingetreten ist und unser Land in erheblichen wirtschaftlichen Schwierigkeiten steckt. Aber wie kann es weitergehen? Welche Weichen müssen jetzt gestellt werden, um den Wohlstand der kommenden Generationen zu sichern? Wie kann Deutschland intelligenter gemanagt werden? Warum müssen wir den Klimaschutz neu denken? Wie kann die Infrastruktur radikal erneuert werden? Wie muss ein neuer Bildungspakt aussehen? Wie können mehr Menschen ein Vermögen aufbauen? Diese Fragen erscheinen brandaktuell, jedoch hat Stelter sie sich schon 2021 gestellt und in seinem bis dato letzten Buch Ein Traum von einem Land: Deutschland 2040 beantwortet. In Episode 61 sprach er mit der Wirtschafts- und Finanzexpertin des Bayerischen Rundfunks, Christine Bergmann, über sein Sanierungsprogramm für Deutschland.

This month, I'm slowing down — not to plan more, but to see more. In today's episode, I'm talking about something I believe every microschool founder needs before stepping into a new year: an Autumn Audit. I know how it feels to get caught up in the whirlwind of running your school — the lesson plans, family communications, finances, tours, and events. But if we're not careful, we can move so fast that we stop seeing the beauty of what we've built. The Autumn Audit is a moment to pause and look at your school — or even just the dream of your school — through new eyes. Whether you're already open and serving families or you're just beginning to build, this reflection process helps you realign your space, your systems, and your spirit with the vision God first placed in your heart. ✨ In This Episode, I'm Sharing: Why reflection is the most important — and often most neglected — leadership skill for microschool founders. The real reason burnout happens (and how to course-correct before January). The simple questions I'm asking myself during my own Autumn Audit at Lighthouse Learning. How to see your microschool through the eyes of your parents, staff, and students — and use that feedback to grow. What's included inside this month's Microschool Masterminds experience, including:   My Autumn Audit Workbook A Kid-Friendly School Audit Checklist (students love this one!) The Staff & Community Reflection Guide And the Parent Post-Tour Follow-Up Template to turn curiosity into connection.

Hebrews: The True and Better - Isaiah 40.28-31Tyler WillisLife has a way of draining our energy, leaving us spiritually weak and exhausted. The world tells us to “dig deep,” but our faith teaches us that when we are weak, His strength is made known. As Isaiah 40 reminds us, the Lord is the everlasting God who does not grow weary. We receive strength not by striving, but by waiting for the Lord—looking forward to, hoping for, and expecting Him.If you have a lack of strength in your marriage, parenting, or finances, His grace gives you endurance. The Lord gives power to the faint so that we may run and not be weary toward the promises of eternal rest. Jesus Christ, our perfect forerunner, ran the race to the cross, securing your rest. Come to Him, the only one who can carry the weight of sin and give you rest for your soul.

Grace. Generosity. Gratitude. What happens when you put your money — and your heart — in God's hands? Today we're looking at a life-changing truth from pastor and author Tim Keller: “There can be no significant spiritual growth in your life unless you put your money and your attitude toward money in God's hands.” That's super challenging but this sermon will help you see giving not as an obligation but as an overflow of grace and gratitude. Today's scripture, Corinthians 9:8–11, shows how: • God's grace motivates us to give • Our generosity impacts lives for eternity • Our gratitude turns blessings into worship This message is part of our TOGETHER Refresh Initiative, where our church family is stepping forward in faith to expand our capacity to reach the Roanoke Valley and beyond with the Gospel. This isn't about guilt or obligation—it's about freedom, joy, and understanding that everything we have flows from God's generosity. Whether you're new to faith or have been walking with Christ for decades, this message will challenge you to examine your relationship with money and discover the abundant life God designed for generous givers. Scripture List: 2 Corinthians 9.8-11 Isaiah 55.9-11

Ever feel trapped or directionless in your journey—personally or professionally?In this episode, I revisit my own story of career pivots, the power of taking action, and how understanding your emotions (yes, I use a “joy meter”) can unlock the true clarity you've been searching for.If you're feeling stuck, I promise: action and self-awareness can change your trajectory.Here are My 3 Key Takeaways:1. Stuck vs. Lost: Feeling stuck doesn't mean you're lost—you might just be on the right path but pointed the wrong way. Frustration can cloud your judgment, but clarity comes when you separate the two and keep moving.2. Clarity Comes Through Action: You can't think your way to clarity; you have to act. Paying attention to how your choices affect your well-being (like my “joy meter” system) is essential in steering yourself back on course.3. It's Okay to Step Away: Sometimes, the bravest and healthiest thing you can do is stop doing what no longer serves you, even if you've invested time and energy. Recognizing when to move on—whether from a job, commitment, or relationship—is how you find true alignment and growth.Ready to Master Your Mindset, Mission, and Message?If today's episode spoke to you, don't just listen—step behind the curtain.

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches! Today's extended discussion centers on converting fresh ideas into repeatable results. We unpack a subscriber's late mortgage lead and outline an approach that widens our focus to agents, investors, and like-minded professionals who care about mortgage-backed opportunities. The team explains our refresh program, a process that re-runs older data to confirm if the deed is still in the owner's name and whether the property remains unsold, enabling you to re-prospect with confidence. We explore Habitat for Humanity partnerships, including how deed restrictions and zero-interest mortgages affect outcomes, how to engage the Habitat board, and why acting as a middleman can unlock favorable terms while protecting the client. We discuss practical tools such as PropStream, Matt's ability to call late-mortgage leads, Homebot's market-value reports and CMA-driven strategies, and the importance of keeping your name on every document.

Episode Title: Data That Delivers: Governance & Authentic AI ContentHost: Donna Peterson, Owner & President of World InnovatorsGuest: David Clemen, Editor & Publisher of Global Market NewsEpisode Summary-In this episode, host Donna Peterson sits down with David Clemen, Editor and Publisher of Global Market News, to unpack what truly drives database performance in 2025 and why the era of “bigger is better” lists is over.Together they explore how data governance, clear naming conventions, and regular list cleaning lead to more engagement, better ROI, and fewer headaches. From removing “dead wood” contacts to documenting how lead sources are named, David explains the real-world steps that keep data reliable, even as titles and roles change faster than ever.The conversation also dives deep into AI's role in modern publishing and marketing: how it can amplify productivity but never replace human insight. Donna and David discuss the fine line between efficiency and authenticity, warning that unverified, AI-generated content can damage brand credibility.Finally, they reflect on leadership, honesty, and trust- both within teams and with readers. From setting clear standards to saying “no” to misfit advertisers, this episode is packed with practical lessons on maintaining integrity in an era of automation and noise.Key Takeaways You Can Implement Right Away-Establish data governance early. Create clear naming conventions and rules for list maintenance, updates, and deletions.Purge or “hibernate” dead contacts. An oversized list with low engagement hurts deliverability and performance.Refresh your data regularly. Titles and roles evolve rapidly- outdated data equals missed opportunities.Focus on engagement, not vanity metrics. A smaller, active audience delivers higher open rates and ROI.Partner with credible publishers. Industry publishers like Global Market News maintain vetted, engaged, and compliant databases.Use AI responsibly. Treat AI as a junior assistant- great for ideas and speed, but always review for accuracy and tone.Lead with integrity. Transparency and honesty with your team and audience build long-term trust and brand strength.Episode Chapters-00:00 Why clean, governed data outperforms big lists05:00 The 23 spellings of one lead source- how naming chaos kills insights10:30 Cutting “dead wood” and setting re-engagement rules15:00 Why frequent updates are critical in a fast-changing job market19:30 The AI advantage: faster workflows without losing your voice25:30 Maintaining credibility: saying no to misfit advertisers28:30 Leadership & trust: no white lies, clear feedback, real teamworkBio- David Clemen is the Editor and Publisher of Global Market News, where he leads editorial strategy, audience growth, and media partnerships for one of the fastest-scaling investor news platforms in the U.S. A 20-year digital media veteran, he has built and monetized audiences in finance, technology, and B2B media, growing subscriber bases into the millions and generating eight-figure revenue through content, sponsorships, and lead-gen programs.

Richard Powers won the Pulitzer Prize i 2019 for “The Overstory,” and the National Book Award in 2006 for “The Echo Maker.” He is also the author of “The Time Of Our Singing,” “Orfeo,” and “Bewilderment.” He has been a Booker Prize and National Book Critics Circle Award finalist multiple times. “Playground” brings together the history of Silicon Valley and the growth of A.I. with a look at deep ocean diving and the notion of floating cities in a story that circles back on itself, and was possibly written by an artificial intelligence. Complete interview     Bebe Moore Campbell (1950-2025), Best Selling Novelist Bebe Moore Campbell (1950-2006), in conversation with Richard Wolinsky, recorded August 23, 2001 while on tour for her novel, “What You Owe Me.” In her books, she explored racial justice, childhood obesity and the tensions in friendships between Black and white people; she shared the stigma of mental illness and memories of the summers she spent with her father in North Carolina. Bebe Moore Campbell died of brain cancer on November 27, 2006 at the age of 56,  and was on the verge of recognition as a major African American novelist and journalist at the time of her death. Her first novel, published in 1992, Your Blues Ain't Like Mine, won the NAACP Image Award for Literature that year, and was a notable book in both the New York Times and Los Angeles Times. Her second novel, Brothers and Sisters, hit the New York Times best seller list after two weeks. Along the way, she became a regular commentator on NPR's Morning Edition. I interviewed Bebe Moore Campbell on August 23, 2001 while she was on the publicity tour for her fourth novel, What You Owe Me. Most of the interview focuses on that book. Bebe Moore Campbell would only write one more novel before her untimely death 72 Hour Hold. As for October, 2025, none of her works have been adapted for film or television. This was one of the final Bookwaves interviews recorded on analog tape, and was digitized and edited on October 20, 2025. This interview has not aired since 2002. .

If your marketing has ever flopped — your posts tanked, your ads stopped converting, or your workshop seats didn't fill — this episode is for you.   In this episode, Hannah Matheson, Marketing Director at Rehab Chiro, breaks down the exact framework our team uses when marketing stops working.   Instead of panicking, scrapping everything, or assuming you're “just bad at marketing,” you'll learn how to diagnose the real problem and fix it fast — using a simple three-step system that we use inside our own business.   Here's what you'll learn:   - The 3R Framework to get your marketing back on track: Reuse, Refresh, Refine. - Why “marketing is always a test” (and what that really means when results drop). - How to rebuild trust in your audience when engagement falls off. - The single biggest mistake most clinicians make when trying to fix their marketing.   Whether your ad performance has tanked or your content just isn't landing, this episode gives you a roadmap to figure out why — and get back to generating leads and new patients again.     If you've been listening for a while and getting value from the podcast — but haven't taken Chiro Biz 101 yet — now's your chance. Our clients are averaging 177% growth, and you can too.

Der Wirtschaftsnobelpreis 2021 ging an David Card, Joshua Angrist und Guido Imbens. Die drei Wissenschaftler erhielten die Auszeichnung für ihre bahnbrechenden Arbeiten, die die empirische Wirtschaftsforschung grundlegend verändert haben. Nicht nur, weil kürzlich der diesjährige Alfred-Nobel-Gedächtnispreis für Wirtschaftswissenschaften verliehen worden ist und auch nicht nur, weil Prof. Dr. Rüdiger Bachmann von der University of Michigan/USA auch schon vor vier Jahren in Folge 103 die Preisvergabe eingeordnet hat, ist es Zeit für dieses bto REFRESH, sondern weil Card, Angrist und Imbens die sogenannte „Credibility Revolution“ in der empirischen Wirtschaftsforschung ausgelöst haben. Weshalb die Methoden der Nobelpreisträger heute eine breite Anwendung in der Politikgestaltung und -evaluation finden.Vorher gibt es aber noch ein hochaktuelles Thema, was uns vom üblichen Muster einer REFRESH-Folge abweichen lässt. Denn im aktuellen Handelskonflikt mit den USA greift China zu einer sehr scharfen Waffe: die Exportbeschränkung Seltener Erden. So werden 17 chemische Elemente bezeichnet, die für moderne Technologien unverzichtbar sind. China hat sich hier bei Gewinnung und Verarbeitung faktisch eine Monopolstellung erarbeitet. In Zeiten zunehmender Spannungen wird dieser Umstand zu einer echten Crux und für alle, die keine Vorkommen dieser Seltenen Erden haben. Ohne Lieferung dieser Metalle droht ein erheblicher Mangel mit gravierenden Auswirkungen für die Wirtschaft und Sicherheit vieler Länder. Hightech-Produkte wie Computer und Handys bis zu Displays, Leuchtmitteln, Katalysatoren oder Magneten und vielfältige andere Anwendungen sind ohne diesen Rohstoff nicht denkbar. Mindestens ebenso relevant ist ihr Einsatz bei Produkten der Luft- und Raumfahrt und der Militärtechnik.

In this episode of the AdTechGod Pod, host AdTechGod speaks with Brittany Scott, VP of Brand Partnerships at Zefr. Brittany shares her unique journey from working at major brands like Kellogg and SC Johnson to transitioning into the ad tech space at Meta and now Zefr. The conversation delves into the importance of brand safety and suitability in advertising, the impact of legacy brands on current strategies, and the challenges of navigating brand reputation in a digital landscape. Brittany also discusses the cultural shifts she experienced moving from brand to ad tech, and her excitement about the future of AI in advertising. Takeaways Brittany's journey into advertising was unplanned but rewarding. Working at legacy brands shaped Brittany's understanding of brand safety. Brand safety is crucial for maintaining brand reputation. Crisis management is a key aspect of brand partnerships. Cultural differences exist between brand and ad tech environments. AI presents both challenges and opportunities for advertising. Brands need to adapt their strategies to the evolving digital landscape. Building strong partnerships is essential for success in ad tech. Understanding regulatory components is vital for brand safety. Innovation and speed are critical in the ad tech industry. Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Brittany Scott and Zefr 01:23 Brittany's Journey in Advertising 05:48 Understanding Brand Safety and Zefr Role 08:29 The Importance of Brand Legacy 11:25 Navigating Brand Reputation in Crisis 14:58 Cultural Shifts from Brand to Ad Tech 22:29 The Future of AI in Advertising AdTech's New Frontier: OpenAds, AdCP, and the Streaming Power Duo This week's episode of The Refresh dives into three major developments reshaping the advertising landscape. The Trade Desk takes center stage with its new OpenAds and PubDesk tools, aiming to clean up the programmatic supply chain while stirring industry debate. Meanwhile, the debut of Ad Context Protocol (AdCP) marks a potential turning point for agentic AI in digital media, proposing a standardized framework for AI-driven ad transactions. Finally, Netflix and Spotify join forces to expand video podcast distribution, signaling a shift in how audiences consume and advertisers monetize cross-platform content. 5 Key Highlights: The Trade Desk's OpenAds and PubDesk Launch: Introduced at the Prebid Summit, these tools aim to bring transparency and auditability to programmatic auctions. OpenAds introduces auction verification features, while PubDesk provides publishers with detailed auction and market insights. Industry Controversy Around OpenAds: Critics argue that The Trade Desk's approach to transaction IDs and auction control gives it too much influence over publishers, echoing antitrust concerns seen in other major adtech cases. Introduction of Ad Context Protocol (AdCP): Spearheaded by Brian O'Kelley and built on Anthropic's Model Context Protocol, AdCP standardizes communication between AI agents in advertising, with backing from PubMatic, Yahoo, and Scope3. Promise and Challenges of Agentic AI: Supporters see AdCP as the next OpenRTB, enabling seamless AI-to-AI media transactions, while skeptics question its ability to overcome adoption barriers and address critical issues like fraud prevention and payments. Netflix and Spotify's Video Podcast Partnership: Starting next year, Spotify's video podcasts will stream on Netflix, enhancing reach for creators and advertisers while positioning Netflix as a new competitor in the video podcast space alongside YouTube.

Is having a big ego really a bad thing, or is it the key to unlocking your highest potential? In this episode, I break down the Pyramid of Mastery and reveal why ego sits at the very top—and the surprising steps you need to master it for lasting success.Here are 3 Key Takeaways:Start with Self-Awareness: The journey to self-mastery begins by admitting you have a big ego—and being honest about how that makes you feel. True self-awareness means recognizing your strengths and weaknesses without judgment.Understand and Transform Your Ego: Examine why your ego is so big. Is it rooted in self-belief, or a sense of superiority over others? Embracing self-understanding allows you to shift your mindset from ego as arrogance to ego as confidence—then transform from within.The Dichotomy of Ego Mastery: Mastering your ego means embracing the paradox that you are both unique and entirely the same as everyone else. Only by reconciling this duality can you reach the top of the mastery pyramid and achieve true self-mastery.Ready to Master Your Mindset, Mission, and Message?If today's episode spoke to you, don't just listen—step behind the curtain.

This Sunday we continued our new series entitled "Finish Strong". We have completed the first year of our 40 and Forward initiative and have one more year to complete. The title of this Sunday's message was "Refresh In Our Worship." Get your Bibles out and pens ready to take notes, this message will let you know where we are headed as a church!Pastor Herb Hartso III, head pastor of Antioch Bible Churchinvites you to join us in person. You belong here.

Are you a cheerful giver? Do you ever feel anxious about giving money to the church or a charity? You're not alone. We're often tempted to hold onto our finances, thinking, "I need to save more," or "What if I run out?" But what if the secret to true financial freedom and lasting joy isn't in hoarding, but in letting go? In this message from 2 Corinthians 9:6-8, we are challenged to move beyond hesitant, obligatory giving and step into the abundant life of a "cheerful giver." We'll unpack the profound truth of sowing and reaping — not just with our money, but with our time, energy, and love. We'll see that giving is not about an amount and why a mindset of generosity transforms your heart. God's grace and abundance make it possible to live open-handedly. This message will encourage you to trust God in your giving — and discover the joy that comes when you do. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9.6-8

PhilemonNew King James VersionGreeting1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother,To Philemon our beloved friend and fellow laborer, 2 to the beloved Apphia, Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house:3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.4 I thank my God, making mention of you always in my prayers, 5 hearing of your love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints, 6 that the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. 7 For we have great joy and consolation in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed by you, brother.8 Therefore, though I might be very bold in Christ to command you what is fitting, 9 yet for love's sake I rather appeal to you—being such a one as Paul, the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ— 10 I appeal to you for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten while in my chains, 11 who once was unprofitable to you, but now is profitable to you and to me.12 I am sending him back. You therefore receive him, that is, my own heart, 13 whom I wished to keep with me, that on your behalf he might minister to me in my chains for the gospel. 14 But without your consent I wanted to do nothing, that your good deed might not be by compulsion, as it were, but voluntary.15 For perhaps he departed for a while for this purpose, that you might receive him forever, 16 no longer as a slave but more than a slave—a beloved brother, especially to me but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.17 If then you count me as a partner, receive him as you would me. 18 But if he has wronged you or owes anything, put that on my account. 19 I, Paul, am writing with my own hand. I will repay—not to mention to you that you owe me even your own self besides. 20 Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in the Lord.21 Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even more than I say. 22 But, meanwhile, also prepare a guest room for me, for I trust that through your prayers I shall be granted to you.23 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you, 24 as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow laborers.25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

This week, join us as we revisit our episode on Daubert and What Makes a Good Expert! Original Air Date: June 25, 2021. Witnesses can testify based on what they saw and heard or they can be called to the stand with expert knowledge supported by scientific data or specialized training.  But expert witnesses must satisfy the court with more than a good resume – they must also show that the methodology they used to draw their conclusions are sound. On this week's installment, join Rebecca and Steve as they discuss the evolution of trial court standards for admitting expert testimony, from the Frye test, to the Daubert standard and beyond, and discuss what you should look for in a good expert witness.

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches!  Today's episode dives into reviving aging leads using the Refresh program, with a focus on probate, divorce, and mortgage-related scenarios. Tim, Matt, Jody, and the team share practical steps to update old contacts, re-engage hesitant sellers, and convert long-dormant opportunities into appointments and closings. They break down how the data refresh works, how we can leverage signboards, mail, and targeted outreach to re-activate leads, and how a disciplined cadence can improve conversion rates even when market conditions tighten. The discussion covers pricing, including a substantial discount on the Refresh service, and how this makes high‑value follow‑up accessible to more practitioners. Throughout the dialogue, participants reveal real-world results: average conversations per month, appointment rates, and the speed at which new and seasoned clients respond to refreshed data. The crew also addresses compliance, do-not-call considerations, and the balance between aggressive outreach and respectful, value-first communication. The conversation wraps with tactical tips on prioritizing the most promising older leads, offering services that add tangible value (like cleanouts, probate administration support, and rate buy-downs), and how to structure offers to stimulate action. If you're serious about reviving stalled pipelines, this episode provides a practical blueprint for turning dormant assets into active deals and for building predictable, scalable success in probate, divorce, late mortgage/pre-foreclosure, and aged-expired niches.  Key Takeaways Aged Leads Are Gold: Around 30% of older probate records still have unsold real estate making Refresh a powerful way to uncover missed deals. Leverage Automation: Smart automation and ISA support help you follow up efficiently and scale your outreach. Old Leads, New Appointments: Agents using Refresh are booking up to one appointment a day by revisiting leads up to two years old. Know Why Properties Linger: Surviving spouses, family delays, or financing issues often slow probate sales reinforcing that timing is everything. Stay Compliant and Consistent: Follow DNC rules, pace your calls, and keep messaging steady for better results. Get Creative With Marketing: Use assumable loans, rate buy-downs, and Every Door Direct Mail to attract buyers and sellers. Systems Create Longevity: Consistency, structure, and relationship-building keep you top of mind when families are ready to sell.  To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market.  #ProbateRealEstate #RealEstateLeads #LeadFollowUp #AutomationForAgents Previous episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

Sara dives into one of the most unforgettable parts of drinking → hangovers. From her worst-ever hangover in Punta Cana to the subtle shame-filled Sundays that followed too many nights out, Sara breaks down how hangovers evolved throughout her drinking years and how they became one of the biggest motivators for her sobriety. She doesn't stop at personal stories. Sara also explores the science of hangovers: what's actually happening inside your body and brain when you're feeling miserable the next day. You'll learn why alcohol leads to dehydration, inflammation, anxiety, and that 3 a.m. wake-up, plus why “hair of the dog” only keeps the cycle going. If you've ever wondered why hangovers hit so hard or need a vivid reminder of what you're leaving behind, this episode is your reality check and your motivation to keep choosing a hangover-free life. 00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Today's Topic 02:28 The Worst Hangover Experience 09:00 Evolution of Hangovers Over the Years 15:34 The Science Behind Hangovers 25:06 Conclusion

In this engaging conversation, Amy Lanzi, CEO of Digitas North America, shares her unique journey from a finance major to a leader in the advertising industry. She discusses the evolution of client needs, the balance between creativity and data, and the impact of AI and synthetic audiences on marketing strategies. Amy also emphasizes the importance of female leadership and the role of creators in brand strategy, providing insights into the future of advertising. Takeaways Amy Lanzi transitioned from a finance background to the advertising industry. Her experience in yield management at American Airlines shaped her understanding of customer experience. The advertising landscape has shifted towards a focus on media investment rather than just creative campaigns. Balancing creativity and data is crucial for modern marketing strategies. AI and synthetic audiences are transforming how agencies approach consumer engagement. Female leaders should embrace their unique qualities and support other women in the industry. Brands need to establish strong connections with consumers through first-party data. Creators serve as personalized concierges for brands, influencing consumer behavior. The future of advertising will require brands to be the answer for consumers' needs. Understanding the creator economy is essential for brands to thrive.

Paramount+ brings back a touch of traditional TV nostalgia with a new static ad placement format, while American Express joins the growing commerce media race with a premium, closed-loop offering. Duolingo takes more control over its ad operations by launching its own ads platform, signaling a shift toward in-house monetization strategies. Meanwhile, Google's adtech antitrust remedies trial wraps up, leaving the industry waiting to see if structural change could finally hit Big Tech's ad dominance. Paramount+ Launches “Streaming Fixed Units”: The streamer introduces a new ad format that locks an advertiser's placement into the same slot for a week after an episode airs, recreating traditional TV consistency and offering advertisers more predictability. American Express Debuts “AmEx Ads”: Leveraging first-party data from 34 million cardholders, AmEx enters the commerce media arena with an exclusive network housed on its own properties like AmexTravel.com, focusing on premium and affluent audiences. Commerce Media Competition Heats Up: With networks from Mastercard, Chase, and now AmEx, commerce media spending is projected to reach $170 billion in 2024, pushing companies to differentiate through niche audiences and unique value propositions. Duolingo Builds Its Own Ads Platform: The language-learning app strengthens its advertising business by creating a direct-sales platform that complements programmatic channels, achieving 3% higher CTRs and strong engagement with rewarded video formats. Google's Antitrust Trial Concludes: The DOJ's push for structural remedies, including potentially spinning off AdX, faces pushback from Google's behavioral proposals, setting the stage for potential landmark changes in adtech competition and regulation.

Are you tired of the status quo and ready to break through to your highest potential? In this episode, I share my personal journey through burnout and back—unpacking the seven key skills you need to master yourself truly. Tune in as I reveal how self-mastery isn't just about talent or achievement, but about building lifelong habits for resilience, purpose, and excellence.Here are 3 Key Takeaways:1) Self-Mastery Begins with Self-Awareness: Understanding yourself—your strengths, limitations, and motivations—is the foundational skill. My own transformation began when I recognized the warning signs of burnout and chose to dig deeper into who I really am and what I need.2) Discipline, Emotional Intelligence, and Positive Thinking Are Non-Negotiable: Knowing what to do is just the start—committing to consistent action, processing challenges with emotional maturity, and maintaining positivity even in tough times are integral skills for sustained growth and impact.3) Optimize with Goals, Time, and Stress Management: True mastery means setting meaningful goals, managing your time intentionally, and developing ways to handle stress. Find routines and outlets—like I do with Marvel movies—that help you reset and stay on track for long-term success.Ready to Master Your Mindset, Mission, and Message?If today's episode spoke to you, don't just listen—step behind the curtain.

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss the latest restaurant industry news, including Domino's brand refresh, Wendy's new strategic plan, and McDonald's Snack Wrap struggles. First up is Domino's, which refreshed its branding with new colors, a new font, and even its first-ever jingle, recorded by Grammy-nominated musician Shaboozey. Sam and Alicia discuss this refresh and how it differs from the big rebrand at Cracker Barrel. How can restaurant chains successfully update their brands without alienizing loyal customers? Domino's offers a case study. Next up is Wendy's, which needs a refresh of its own and announced Project Fresh, a strategic plan designed in conjunction with marketing consultant (and former Yum! Brands CEO) Greg Creed. The plan hopes to revitalize Wendy's brand and accelerate profitability, but in the wake of the company's volatility — including the departure of short-tenured CEO Kirk Tanner — does Wendy's need more action than talk? Then they shift their focus to Wendy's competitor, McDonald's, which maybe didn't get the lift from Snack Wraps that it expected. Data from Placer.ai shows that McDonald's enjoyed a brief boost from the wraps, but visits fell each week after that and lagged the overall category. Sam and Alicia discuss the bigger issue with restaurants and why new products aren't always the silver bullet that companies hope them to be. Finally, managing editor Leigh Anne Zinsmeister joins the podcast to discuss the recent spate of bankruptcies and why it seems that several small and regional chains in particular have been forced to file.

What separates truly exceptional leaders from the rest? According to Kurt Strovink, it's not just strategy, execution, or decision-making—it's the ability to lead from within. As a senior partner at McKinsey & Company and a global advisor to CEOs, Kurt has spent decades studying the patterns of the most successful executives. In his latest book, The Journey of Leadership: How CEOs Learn to Lead from the Inside Out, he reveals what the best leaders do differently and why self-awareness is at the core of transformative leadership.In this insightful conversation, Kurt unpacks the critical contradictions every CEO must navigate—balancing short-term and long-term priorities, managing gut instincts with data-driven analysis, and fostering trust while making tough calls. He also explores the human-centric aspects of leadership, showing why the most effective CEOs focus not just on financial performance but on culture, dissent, and psychological safety to drive long-term success.Mahan Tavakoli and Kurt also discuss practical frameworks for leadership development, including how CEOs can create cultures that encourage truth-telling, manage their energy instead of just their time, and make bold decisions that define their legacies. Drawing on insights from 500+ CEO forums and top leaders worldwide, Kurt shares the strategies that help executives avoid common pitfalls and unlock their full leadership potential.Actionable Takeaways from This EpisodeYou'll learn why leading others starts with leading yourself—and how the best CEOs develop self-awareness as a core leadership skill.Hear how top leaders institutionalize truth-telling and dissent within their organizations to avoid blind spots and drive better decision-making.Find out why managing energy is just as important as managing time—and how CEOs structure their schedules for peak performance.Discover how to make bold, differentiating moves early in your leadership tenure to set the tone for lasting impact.Learn why the most effective CEOs challenge their own organizations like an activist investor, forcing teams to rethink assumptions and drive transformation.Explore the power of leadership storytelling—how CEOs use analogies and language to shape culture and inspire action.Uncover strategies for navigating the inevitable contradictions of leadership—short-term vs. long-term, data vs. intuition, and control vs. delegation.Hear how great CEOs build leadership factories, ensuring a pipeline of strong leaders while avoiding the distractions of succession politics.Understand why the best leaders don't just execute strategy—they create the conditions for others to thrive and innovate.Find out when it's time to step away and transition leadership—and how great CEOs prepare for what's next.Connect with Kurt StrovinkKurt Strovink LinkedIn Kurt Strovink McKinsey & Company The Journey of Leadership: How CEOs Learn to Lead from the Inside Out Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website
