Have you ever woken up, looked at your calendar, and thought… “I should be excited about this, but I'm just tired?” You don't HATE your business. In fact, things are working well. On the outside, you look successful. But inside, you're feeling disconnected (and maybe even a little resentful). This is the midlife shift so many women business owners go through, even though it is RARELY talked about. In this episode, we're talking about what it looks (and feels) like when your spark begins to fade, why it happens after years in business, and how you can bring the joy, desire, and alignment back into your life and business without burning it all down. Here's What You'll Learn in the Episode:  The subtle signs that you've outgrown your business (or at least, your current business model) and why that does NOT mean you've failed Why joy should not be looked at as a “bonus”... but as the fuel that drives your creativity, energy, and growth. The 3-step Business RE:Model Framework and how to RE:Align, RE:Connect, and RE:Define your business so it feels right for the season of life you're in NOW. Practical ways to shift your role, your offers, and your boundaries so you can feel energised again. Why reclaiming your identity and your desire is KEY to finding fulfilment in this next stage of business (and life).

Welcome to the eighth episode of the 2025 Global Leadership Summit Recap Series on Stories from the River! This week, CEO Charlie Malouf is joined by Carl Hillesland, Director of Retail Performance at Broad River Retail, to reflect on Christine Caine's powerful session at the Summit. Christine Caine—author, speaker, and founder of the A21 anti-human trafficking campaign—shared her personal journey of discovering her life's purpose and the critical turning point that led her to confront the realities of human trafficking. In her talk, she warned leaders about the danger of drift—the subtle but steady loss of vision and purpose that happens when we simply do nothing. Charlie and Carl explore how Christine's stories, like discovering she was adopted and later encountering the vast scope of human trafficking, illustrate the need to stay anchored to a clear why. They unpack her vivid analogy of two beach umbrellas representing boundaries that prevent us from drifting and discuss how Memory Makers can apply these ideas in their own work and lives. The conversation highlights: - How to recognize and combat “drift” in leadership and life - The importance of boundaries, vision, and purpose to stay aligned - Practical ways Memory Makers are already using Christine's message to realign with their mission - Why leaders must intentionally Re-Anchor, Rebuild, and Reignite their passion to avoid languishing or losing focus This episode is a call to action for Memory Makers to be intentional lighthouses—staying grounded, shining with purpose, and helping others navigate life's currents toward meaningful impact.

In this episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, Ethan and I dive into a topic most men don't talk about nearly enough—male friendships. From high school bonds that fade after graduation to the loneliness many men feel in their 30s and 40s, we unpack why brotherhood is so hard to maintain and why it matters more than ever.   We share personal stories, both from Ethan's perspective at 19 and my experience at 50, about what it looks like to build lasting friendships at different stages of life. From the silent killers of connection—busyness, unspoken expectations, and lack of intentionality—to the keys that keep brotherhood alive, this episode is a raw and honest roadmap for men who don't want to go through life alone.     TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome to the Dad Edge movement and today's theme: friendships and brotherhood [1:02] - Why male friendships dwindle after high school [2:45] - How friendships shift in your 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s [4:58] - Why achievement never replaces connection [6:13] - Ethan's perspective at 19: losing friends as everyone goes their separate ways [8:46] - Larry's college stories: parties, hangovers, and life lessons learned the hard way [12:23] - The shift from convenience-based friendships to intentional ones [15:01] - Why men struggle to make new friendships as they age [17:30] - The role of shared struggle, vulnerability, and consistency in building brotherhood [21:10] - Why “let's hang out sometime” rarely works—and what to do instead [25:18] - Larry's example of rekindling friendships with intentional planning [28:35] - How marriage and fatherhood shift men's priorities and isolate them [31:05] - The silent killers of friendship: busyness, lack of vulnerability, inconsistency [34:16] - Why brotherhood is essential for emotional, spiritual, and relational health [37:02] - Advice for young men: stay proactive, visit friends, make memories now [41:33] - How to prevent friendships from fading with intentionality and consistency [48:11] - Parallels between the silent killers of friendship and the silent killers of marriage [54:09] - Final reflections: why men need brotherhood and how to fight for it     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Friendships Require Intentionality Unlike the easy friendships of high school and college, adult brotherhood must be built with deliberate effort—planning, showing up, and refusing to drift. 2. Achievement Doesn't Replace Connection No amount of success, money, or accolades can substitute for the bond of brotherhood. Men need friendships to thrive, not just careers and families. 3. Vulnerability Creates Real Brotherhood Surface-level conversations keep men distant. True friendship grows when we open up honestly about struggles, challenges, and real life behind the scenes. 4. Consistency Keeps Bonds Alive Friendships die in silence. Weekly check-ins, shared rituals, or even planned coffee dates create the reps that make brotherhood last. 5. The Same Rules Apply to Marriage The silent killers of friendship—busyness, lack of vulnerability, loss of intentionality—also destroy marriages. Strong relationships, whether with friends or a spouse, require consistent effort and openness.       LINKS & RESOURCES   DB OVERDRIVE:  https://1stphorm.com/products/thyro-drive/?a_aid=dadedge First Phorm DB Overdrive (supplement featured): https://www.thedadedge.com/1361 25 Questions to Spark Connection With Your Partner: https://www.thedadedge.com/25questions Dad Edge Podcast Website: https://www.thedadedge.com/podcast Join The Alliance: https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance Dad Edge Tools & Resources: https://www.thedadedge.com/tools       If this episode gave you fresh insight into friendship, brotherhood, or marriage, please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast.

You'd think retreat leaders wouldn't “need” a retreat themselves… but the truth is, we'll never be done learning, deepening, and choosing each other. In this episode of the Get Your Sexy Back Podcast for Couples, we share why we said yes to flying across the world for a couples mastermind and retreat — and what it gave us as partners, lovers, and leaders. What you'll hear in this episode:Why we signed up for a six-month mastermind and retreat, even with resistance.Why even leaders need to surrender and be held and how it changed our intimacy.How emotional release practices create deep safety and intimacy in partnership.What is the erotic charge of polarity — and how containment and surrender can lead to full-body orgasms (yes, fully clothed).Why you don't have to wait until crisis to invest in your relationship. If you've been craving more intimacy, trust, and desire in your relationship, this episode is your sign. 

Send us a textHave you ever felt inexplicably drained after spending time with certain people? Or found yourself replaying conversations over and over long after they've ended? The heaviness you're carrying might not even be yours.Soul ties represent emotional or spiritual entanglements that can profoundly impact our wellbeing. These connections can form through love, shared trauma, or even survival instincts. While soul ties can be positive, energetic cords—the invisible tethers that drain us—are inherently negative. They emerge from unhealed emotions and unhealthy attachments, often attaching to specific areas of our bodies like the gut (affecting identity), heart (emotional dependency), or brain (obsessive thoughts).Freedom doesn't require cutting people off. Instead, it comes from untangling what was never yours to carry. The release process begins with awareness—asking what's draining you that you've mistaken for love or loyalty. Then comes intention—consciously severing these connections through affirmations that reclaim what's yours. Finally, seal the release by replacing broken ties with peace. For parents and caregivers, this understanding is particularly powerful. The "apron strings" necessary when our children or loved ones need our care shouldn't become invisible leashes as they (or we) grow.Ready to explore your own holy release? Join our Reignite your Flame community or book a personal session to identify and release the ties holding you back. Because you weren't designed to live entangled with everyone in your life—you were made for freedom, clarity, and love that flows from wholeness, not fear.It's time to rediscover YOU.

Nationally acclaimed author and founder of the Every Monday Matters movement, Matthew Emerzian, sits down with Steve Riley to have a conversation about purpose, connection, and building a life that truly matters. Matthew's story did not begin with a breakdown. From the outside, it looked like he had it all. He lived in Beverly Hills, working in the music industry with world-famous bands like U2 and Coldplay. He traveled, enjoyed success, and was part of an exciting, fast-paced world. Then, one night after a blind date arranged by his parents' best friends, he realized something that would change the course of his life. Despite the outward success, he had no real purpose or direction. That realization sent him searching for meaning. He began therapy, which he jokingly calls his “expensive friend,” and started exploring the idea of human-centered design. He wanted to understand how to design a life that put people first, starting with himself, extending to others, and reaching into his work and the world around him. This search led him to create Every Monday Matters, a movement that inspires people to live intentionally and remember that they matter. Over time, it grew into a global message: I matter, you matter, we matter. In this episode, Matthew and Steve explore how that philosophy can transform a law practice. They discuss how “Every Monday Matters” can guide client relationships, strengthen workplace culture, and influence leadership. They talk about why empathy, self-awareness, and kindness are not just good values, but essential tools for success. Matthew shares ways to integrate these values into daily habits so they create real change. He explains how living with intention can improve both personal fulfillment and professional impact. His message is clear: when you believe you matter, it changes how you show up for everyone around you. Matthew walked away from the high life to build a more meaningful one. Today, through Every Monday Matters, he helps people discover purpose in their own lives, one intentional choice at a time. Catch Matthew Emerzian live at this year's Summit! Matthew will take the Summit stage as a keynote speaker with Human-Centered Leadership: How to Prioritize Mental Health, Increase Well-Being, and Mitigate Burnout Across High-Performing Teams. Drawing from his personal journey and his Every Monday Matters movement, Matthew will share The Mattering Mindset — a proven playbook for reducing burnout, building connection, and inspiring purpose-driven growth.

On this week's episode I acknowledge how helpful it is to remember and reignite some of the meaningful experiences we've had, even if life tends to tuck them away on a shelf. Being with my cousin and her husband last week, and their genuine interest in my June trip to Vietnam, I remembered and reignited a deeply moving experience I had. My visit to the Tu Hieu Temple where Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh was ordained at the age of 16 and where he returned to for the last 8 years of his life, was recalled and honored. I am so grateful to remember and reignite how important that visit to the temple was, what it felt like to be in the energetic presence of an Enlightened One. May you remember and reignite some of your meaningful experiences and delight in their richness. Checkout the links below for Thich Nhat Hanh's website, his obituary and a list of his best-known books. Enjoy the podcast!

Men Over 40 – Want to rebuild your body, energy, and mindset?Apply for the next RM40 intake here:Feeling flat, drained, or like you're running on fumes?This episode is your burnout blueprint. Jay shares his personal story of hitting the wall, the warning signs most men miss, and the simple daily habits that bring you back to life.In this episode:3 red flags you're burning outWhy rest isn't working anymoreThe brutal cost of chasing “busy”Micro-recovery tools that actually helpRuthless boundaries & reconnecting with what lights you upQuote of the episode:"Burnout isn't doing too much. It's doing too much of the wrong things."

Are you in your late 40s or beyond?If so, you have decades of valuable experience, a powerful network, and a laundry list of success metrics. But lately, you may be feeling stuck in your career. * You're no longer moving up. * You're watching your younger colleagues get promoted. * Recruiters ghost you more often now. * Job interviews stall out even when you think you interviewed well. You're too experienced for entry-level or mid-level roles. And when you aim for more senior leadership or executive roles, you discover they want someone with 25 years of experience who's only 35 years old. Heaven help you if you get laid off now. It's not a pretty job market for anyone, especially an older worker. “People laid off at higher ages are less likely to move into a new field than those who quit, said Kevin Cahill, an economist at FTI Consulting. “Ageism and higher compensation expectations can be obstacles to re-employment, he said.” (source)* It takes nearly 26 weeks, on average, for people ages 55 to 64 to find a job, compared with 19 weeks for people ages 25 to 34, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.* Older career workers who find new jobs take an 11% pay cut, on average, according to a forthcoming study Cahill co-wrote.So, why not take an early retirement? Well, I bet you're not there yet. Financially, emotionally, or physically. The sad truth is that people who retire sooner die earlier. Believe me, you're not alone in feeling this way and facing this issue. This “messy middle” of our professional careers is real, and it's brutal.But it's also where your next move can be your most powerful. I know it doesn't feel like it right now, but reinventing yourself can lead to living the best years of your life. I'm living proof, and there are lots of us who have done it. It's been over 15 years since I fled my old corporate career to pivot into something new. I built my own businesses, started working out every day, and reinvested in my most important relationships. My sense of loss and depression shifted into joy and fulfillment. I've never been happier! The Messy Middle You're not imagining things, and it's not just you. The job market has shifted under your feet while the economy has been struggling, and political chaos ensues. * Good roles are becoming rarer, and expectations are higher.* Companies are cutting layers of middle and senior management.* They are also eliminating entry-level roles and leaning on fewer employees augmented with AI. * Ageism is real (especially in tech and startups), but hard to prove. * AI is quietly replacing parts of your job.* Younger, cheaper hires are more appealing than the cost of more experienced employees.You didn't do anything wrong. But the system isn't built for you anymore.“The tide has definitely turned against tech workers,” said Catherine Bracy, the founder and chief executive of TechEquity, a nonprofit that pushes for economic inclusion in the industry. “Companies have even more leverage to use against workers, and A.I. is supercharging that.” (source)Traditional Career Advice Fails You “Just update your LinkedIn and polish your resume! Start easy applying to hundreds of jobs every week.”Yeah… no. When you've had a long, complex career, playing the “cold-apply resume” game is a sure-fire way to lose. The hiring process is automated and biased. Most online applications are dead ends, and older workers are screwed. You need a new strategy for this new game.Your leverage is different nowAt this stage of your career, you have leverage that younger people don't. Stop being shy about using your advantages!* Relationships: The network you've built for decades is more powerful than you think.* Reputation: People know your name. They've seen your work. They already trust you.* Experience: You've led, built, scaled, failed, recovered, and learned. Your insights are rare and valuable.Three paths out of the messy middle1. Reposition and rebrand2.

In the nearly 15 years since I began collecting watches in earnest, the watch industry has experienced significant growth. The last couple of years, however, have been a challenge. Inflation, geopolitical events, and other headwinds have now emerged. This has resulted in a tough market and high retail prices. So, what should brands do to reignite the passions of collectors and buyers? We don't have all the answers, but we discuss the topic in today's episode.Yes, it's tough out there, and while there's plenty of interest in timepieces, the watch industry is working through a slow period. High list prices have exacerbated this, and we haven't even brought up the potential effect of further tariffs in some countries. How should brands navigate these challenging times and drive demand again? That's our topic for today. Enjoy!HandgelenkskontrolleBefore we tackle our main topic, we discuss the recent Hungarian Grand Prix. Then, we mention recent travels to South Beach, where amazing watches were on display. Regarding our wristwear, Mike is wearing an under-embargo Aquastar. There's not much to say about this upcoming piece other than it's a diver and that it's a relatively thin watch. Balazs is sporting the SpaceOne Worldtimer, a wild blue titanium watch with an in-house module.Does the watch industry need to reignite the passion of collectors?Mike shared that several brands recently reported that the second quarter was incredibly challenging. This gave rise to our topic about whether the watch industry needs to retrench and figure out how to excite collectors. Sponsoring events and opening single-branded boutiques fit the traditional definition of a luxury brand, but is it what buyers want? Furthermore, have these luxurious touches contributed to prices that are now out of reach for some potential customers? We discuss these thoughts and more. In the end, we don't have the magic answer on how to create more foot traffic. We would love to hear your thoughts, though!

In today's episode, Dr. Killeen shares a heartfelt reminder of the power of giving back.

What if the chaos in your life and marriage isn't random, but the result of living out of sync with God's divine order? In this powerful episode, Dr. Kim welcomes pastor, author, and Bible teacher Manny Arango to the show for the first time. Drawing from his book Crushing Chaos, Manny shares how God brings peace by establishing order and how that same truth can transform our marriages. From understanding “Sequence, Authority, Rhythm” to identifying the chaos we invite into our homes, this conversation is full of practical wisdom and biblical depth. Whether you're navigating stress, disconnection, or just longing for more peace at home, this episode will help you move toward order, unity, and rest.   Episode Highlights: God's first works calm the chaos. Understanding God's context changes the way we read the Bible. God is an expert at not just blessing people with peace, but giving people order. We can't make lasting decisions in our marriage based on a temporary rhythm. Boundaries are necessary for proper order.   Quotes from Today's Episode: Alot of times we are really good at knowing what the Bible says, but not good at knowing what the Bible means.  He takes our lives which are naturally chaotic and dysfunctional and God begins to create order.  Most people think the opposite of chaos is peace, but the reality is the opposite of chaos is order.  Life is full of rhythm. You can't fight against the rhythm of life.  God does healthy, biblically inspired boundaries.  Your feelings aren't a good indicator of whether or not something is godly or biblical. The Word of God has to have preeminence.    Couples' Conversation Guide: Where might we be living out of sync with God's order in our marriage or home? How do we define peace in our marriage? Do you feel like it is based on emotions or God's order? What boundaries might we need to set to protect the rhythm and health of our relationship?   Mentioned in this Episode: Find Manny on IG.

In this episode, Dr. Kim opens up about how workplace relationships, especially dealing with negative and/or flirtatious coworkers, can impact marriage. He encourages couples to recognize these concerns, lean on biblical truth, and take intentional, practical steps to protect and strengthen their relationship. This episode reminds us of the power of open communication, the importance of setting healthy boundaries, and the hope we can find in trusting God through every season of marriage.   Episode Highlights: Concern about coworkers is a valid issue in marriages. Bad company can corrupt good character, as warned in scripture. It's essential to communicate concerns with love and honesty. Praying for wisdom and protection is crucial in navigating these situations. Strengthening the marriage bond is the best defense against outside influences. Being a positive influence in your spouse's life can counteract negative coworkers. Setting healthy boundaries for workplace relationships is necessary. Knowing when to step back and trust God is important. Focus on building a positive atmosphere at home. Each person is responsible for their own choices before God. 24/7 365 Foreplay   Quotes from this Episode: Walk with the wise and become wise. The company we keep matters. Addressing the situation requires discernment not knee jerk reactions. Even in marriage, where two become one flesh, each person remains an individual. A spouse is to be respected. Communicate with love and honesty. Sometimes the most effective communication comes through questions rather than direct confrontation. The most important thing Nancy and I have done in our marriage is prayer daily. Be that uplifting thing that your spouse needs.  Know when to step back.  Anytime we are in a situation where we could compromise our relationship with our spouse we have to run.  Workplace relationships are significant but they aren't all powerful.   Couple's Conversation Guide: Are there relationships at your workplace that are taking time or emotional energy away from your connection with your spouse? How can you set healthy boundaries? Do any coworkers influence your attitudes or behaviors in ways that conflict with the values you and your spouse have established for your marriage and home? How can your faith guide you in responding to difficult or questionable coworkers while maintaining peace and integrity? What steps can you take to protect your marriage from workplace stress and distractions, ensuring your spouse remains your first priority?   Mentioned in this Episode: Find Dr. Kim on Instagram If you strengthen your marriage at home, the affects of work will lessen!

In this episode of the Awesome Marriage Podcast, Dr. Kim sits down with special guest Amie Seiffert, author, speaker, and pastor, for a rich and real conversation about enjoying and engaging with God in every season. Amie shares her journey of faith and the ups and downs of pursuing her calling while raising a family. Together, they unpack the beauty of grace, the power of humor, and the comfort found in Scripture during life's hardest seasons. Whether you're navigating parenting, ministry, or marriage, this episode will remind you that God is present in every season. Episode Highlights: Grace is a central theme in ministry and relationships. Find opportunities to laugh together. Seasons of life are temporary and ever-changing.   Quotes from this Episode: This for now is not forever. We are held by grace.  Humor is such a way to bring things back down to earth. I don't want to live offended. We have buzz words that bring each other back to reality. If I feel overwhelmed, I learned this at therapy, I will give a number on a scale of 1-10. It's hard to say you need help, but it's rewarding.   Couple's Conversation Guide: How do you think grace shows up in our marriage—and where could we use more of it? Amie talked about humor being important in marriage—what are some ways we could be more intentional about laughing together? What does open communication look like for us during stressful or busy seasons? Do we need to make changes? Have you ever struggled with self-doubt in your calling or role in our family? How can I better support you in those moments? What season of life are we in right now, and how can we stay grounded in God while walking through it together? How can we better support one another in balancing our individual callings with our family life?   Mentioned in this Episode: Amie loves Instagram. Connect with her HERE.
