A Prayer to Welcome Accountability with Rachael Adams Can we choose to speak the truth in live-even when it's uncomfortable?In this episode, Rachael shares a personal story of conviction after a social gathering, and through that story we’re reminded that accountability is a gift from God. Just as the prophet Nathan courageously confronted King David, we are called to lovingly challenge one another so we can grow in Christ and live lives that honor Him. Reference: Ephesians 4:15 Prayer: Father, guide and teach me what is true. Implant your truth in my heart so I am not deceived by the lies of this world and the enemy's schemes. Remove any apathy I may have for the behavior of others and give me the courage to sharpen the people in my life as iron sharpens iron. If you are leading me to intervene, let my words be filled with grace and love. May I also be open to receiving advice from others. Please place people around me to remind me of your word an hold me accountable. In Jesus' name. Amen.

What if the real battle isn't around you—but within you? Strongholds form when destructive patterns of thinking take up residence in the mind, shaping reactions, emotions, and beliefs over time. This message walks through the process of breaking strongholds—how they develop, who is most vulnerable to them, and how to remove them through the power of truth. You'll learn how to stop letting past wounds and present feelings dictate your life and how to take every thought captive under the authority of Christ.

Our N.T. reading of Mark's gospel is the heart stirring 72 verses of his 14th chapter.  It records the ‘last supper' that Jesus shared with his disciples and its' age-lasting simplicity has had heart stirring meaning for his genuine disciples in every generation since that time.  After the supper there follows the heart searching time in the garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus prays, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.” [v.36]  The individuality of the Father and Son is so evident here, Jesus sets us an example that wherever Scriptural principles are involved we should follow our Saviour's example and say to our heavenly Father, ” not what I will, but what you will.”  These words make it plain that the ‘theology of the Trinity' which the Catholic's invented centuries later, has no place in the mind of the true believer.Judas now comes “and with him a crowd with swords and clubs'.[v.43]  Jesus does not resist, he says, “let the scriptures be fulfilled.”  And so they were, the Old Testament has several prophecies about this; these Scriptures  also make it plain, as we read yesterday, that there will be a final time of trouble for our world. The words Jesus spoke then have a particular application for us now, “Be on guard; I have told you all things beforehand.” [13 v.23]  Back in today's chapter we note what Jesus told the High Priest, and we see its awesome meaning for us as we live with increasing anticipation of this event.  He was warning the High Priest telling him, ” you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.” [v.62]   The High Priest will be there, among the goats! What horror will fill his heart!   But what a wondrous prospect of joy their fulfilment hold for us. Our thoughts go to the words of Paul when he described this coming event to the Thessalonians in his 1st letter to them, ” the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.” [4 v.16,17]   And where will the Lord be?  Reigning from Jerusalem! The world will experience “a new earth in which righteousness dwells” as Peter puts it in his final epistle [3 v.13]  May the “scriptures be fulfilled” very soon – and may we have the strength of faith to endure the coming tribulation with a sure anticipation of the wonders to follow.

For two decades, organisations have invested heavily in ERP and procurement platforms to digitise source-to-pay. Yet many procurement leaders still find themselves managing critical processes in Excel, chasing approvals over email, and relying on experience rather than real-time intelligence to negotiate with suppliers. The uncomfortable truth? Most enterprise systems were built for control and record-keeping, not optimisation. Unfortunately, we now live in a world increasingly defined by margin pressure, supply chain volatility, and investor scrutiny. So archaic, clunky, limited technology is no longer good enough, especially in Europe with strong economic headwinds, that will last for several years and rapid growth of AI disruption. CFOs Want Efficiency. Procurement Is Under-Resourced. Today's forward thinking CFO's are laser focused on cost discipline, working capital, OpEx/CapEx optimisation, and resilience. Global advisory firms consistently reinforce this and amplify the need for urgent digital transformation and efficient implementation of AI technology across all functions, especially procurement. McKinsey & Company highlights that digital procurement leaders can unlock 5–10% cost savings while improving speed and compliance. PwC points to AI-driven automation reducing manual effort and improving decision quality across finance and procurement. Deloitte emphasises that procurement must move from transactional processing, to insight-led value creation to meet modern CFO expectations. The ambition is there. The problem is structural. Procurement teams are often: Lean relative to spend under management Burdened with manual processes Operating across fragmented systems Dependent on legacy ERP architecture Even when CFO's fully support cost efficiency initiatives, procurement leaders struggle to execute because they lack manpower, clean data, optimal process and intelligent tooling. The ERP Illusion: Control Without Intelligence Multinational ERP platforms — such as SAP S/4HANA, Oracle ERP Cloud, or Microsoft Dynamics 365 — are incredibly powerful financial engines. But they are not purpose-built data driven intelligence platforms, especially for areas such as procurement. They: Capture transactions. Enforce controls. Process invoices. Store supplier records. What they do not do well is: Continuously benchmark pricing. Detect commercial leakage, proactively. Provide dynamic, AI-driven negotiation insights. Surface supplier optimisation opportunities automatically. Remove friction from Supplier relationships. Worse, these systems are extremely expensive and complex. Companies often pay for vast feature sets they never fully deploy, let alone understand. Customisation is costly. Implementation cycles are long and upgrades can be highly disruptive. As a result, procurement teams have no choice but to revert to: Excel models. Offline bid comparisons. Manual supplier evaluations. Email-driven approvals. Even pen and paper in parts of the workflow. The industry becomes digitally "enabled", but not digitally optimised. Even Major Procurement Suites Have Limitations Many of the major procurement platforms such as Coupa, SAP Ariba, and Jaggaer have advanced the market significantly. Yet challenges remain: Rigid workflows. Heavy configuration. Limited/Non existent contextual AI. Fragmented modules across sourcing, contracts, and P2P. High total cost of ownership. They digitise process, but often stop short of delivering continuous, embedded intelligence. Procurement becomes systemised, but not truly strategic. AI Changes the Equation Artificial intelligence shifts procurement from reactive administration to proactive optimisation. Instead of merely recording what has happened, AI answers: Where are we overpaying? Which suppliers present commercial risk? Which contracts contain value leakage? Where can we renegotiate based on real-time market data? Which spend categories are fragmented and unleveraged? AI can: Benchmark pricing at ...

When life feels scattered after 50, your instinct might be to “fix” everything fast – your relationships, your work, your next step. But what if it's not about fixing what's broken? Maybe it's about removing what's blocking the real you from emerging. If you're a woman over 50 whose life looks “fine” on the outside yet inside, something feels unsettled, foggy, or unfinished, you'll want to… Source

The All Local 4pm Update for Tuesday, February 17th,2025

1,097 applications in three days for a single VP-level role. Today's hiring strategy is overwhelmed by volume, automation, and noise. AI-powered recruiting tools are filtering resumes while candidates use AI to optimize applications, creating a talent acquisition process that feels increasingly impersonal and inefficient. In this episode, Sean Barnes breaks down why the modern recruiting and interview process is broken and what executive leaders, HR professionals, and hiring managers must do to fix it. You'll learn practical hiring best practices for building high-performance teams, improving candidate experience, and strengthening your talent pipeline through trust, referrals, and strategic networking. If you are responsible for talent acquisition, executive hiring, or leadership recruitment, this episode offers a smarter framework for attracting top talent and reducing friction in your hiring process.   Key Moments 00:00 - 1,097 applications in three days: what that says about the hiring market 01:00 - AI on both sides: resume parsing vs AI-tailored applications 02:15 - Principle #1: Trust is king in hiring 04:00 - Principle #2: Everyone's network counts, not just HR 06:00 - Principle #3: Why you should reward employee referrals 08:00 - Principle #4: Remove friction from your hiring process 10:30 - Principle #5: Know when to stop interviewing 12:00 - Closing thoughts: building an experience that attracts top talent   Key Takeaways The volume of applications does not equal quality hiring. AI has made hiring more efficient but also more impersonal and noisy. Warm introductions dramatically increase trust and probability of fit. Every leader's network should serve the organization, not just themselves. Referral programs save time, money, and recruiting friction. Overly long interview processes repel high performers. After three to four strong interviews, additional rounds create diminishing returns. Respecting candidate time builds the foundation for long-term trust.   Host: Sean Barnes Website: https://www.wolfexecutives.com   https://www.seanbarnes.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/seanbarnes/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/wolfexecutives https://www.linkedin.com/company/thewayofthewolf/ LinkedIn Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7284600567593684993/ The Wolf Leadership Series: https://wolfexecutives.com/wolf-leadership-series/ YouTube: youtube.thewayofthewolf.com Twitter: https://x.com/seanbarnes https://x.com/wolfexecutives Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_seanbarnes https://www.instagram.com/wolfexecutives https://www.instagram.com/the_wayofthewolf TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the_seanbarnes Email: Sean@thewayofthewolf.com Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Way-of-the-Wolf-Podcast/B08JJNXJ6C Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2BTGdO25Vop3GTpGCY8Y8E?si=ea91c1ef6dd14f15    

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Read more about Project23 and partner with us as we teach every verse of the Bible on video. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 5:6-8. Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Cleanse out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. Let us therefore celebrate the festival, not with the old leaven, the leaven of malice and evil, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. — 1 Corinthians 5:6–8 Paul moves from confronting one man's sin to confronting the entire church's tolerance of it, and he does it with a picture everyone in Corinth understood: leaven. Leaven is quiet. Leaven is small. Leaven works invisibly. Yet once it's mixed in, it spreads through the whole batch of dough. It doesn't matter if it starts in a corner—it ends everywhere. That's Paul's point. Sin never stays personal. It always becomes communal. A private compromise eventually affects public integrity. A hidden lust eventually damages relationships. A tolerated sin eventually shapes a church's culture. Just like leaven, sin spreads beyond the person who commits it. That's exactly why Paul confronted Corinth so strongly in the previous passage. Discipline wasn't only about the man—it was about the whole church, because what one person hides, the whole body eventually breathes. This is why Paul commands them to "cleanse out the old leaven." He's pulling from Passover imagery. Every Jewish family searched their home by candlelight, removing every crumb of leaven so the new batch would remain pure. Even a pinch of the old dough could corrupt everything new. Paul is applying that same spiritual search to the church: Remove the old habits. Remove the excuses. Remove the tolerated sins. Remove the attitudes that spread like rot. If we want a healed church, we must remove what is poisoning both the individual and the body. This is not just about your life. This is about our life together. But Paul ends with a powerful statement: "As you really are unleavened…" In other words, you're already made new. So live like it. Your identity is clean. Your standing is pure. Your church has been washed. So stop kneading in old corruption. Stop letting sin expand. Stop pretending one compromise won't spread to others. Don't be leavened with evil—be unleavened with truth. This is Paul's call to you. This is Paul's call to your church. This is Paul's call to every fellowship that wants to remain spiritually healthy. Remove what spreads death. Keep what spreads life. DO THIS: Do a "Passover sweep" of both your personal life and your church involvement. Remove whatever small thing you've been tolerating before it grows and affects more than you realize. ASK THIS: Where have I underestimated the spread of a small sin? How might my compromise be shaping others around me? What leaven needs to be removed so my life—and my church—can stay healthy? PRAY THIS: Father, show me anything in my life that's quietly spreading and corrupting what You want to renew. Give me courage to remove it and help me strengthen the purity of my church as well. Make me unleavened with sincerity and truth. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Give Us Clean Hands"

This week's book is The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow, the story of three sisters in 1893: Juiper, Agnes and Beatrice who are hunted by forces who will not suffer a witch to vote, they must use their magic, their wits and alliances to find a way to survive. This led to such an interesting conversation about feminism, sisterhood, science, and lots of magic with this week's guest: Angie Hilliker!Angie Hilliker (Ph.D.) is an Associate Professor of Biology at the University of Richmond where she teaches undergraduates about the amazing molecular machines in our cells. She also has a research lab where she works with these budding scientists to understand how our cells regulate mRNA, the molecular recipes cells use to make proteins. She is always curious about something, whether it's something in the lab, in a book, exploring a hobby (including playing the flute and making pottery), or exploring something with her husband and son. When she isn't reading science papers for work, she likes to read fantasy, historical fiction and romance novels.In this Episode James River WritersUniversity of RichmondThe Sackler FamilyThe Poe Museum - RichmondAlly McBealThe Wayward Sisters:Herbal, floral, lightly sweet, and aromatic — like walking through a moonlit herb garden.

Send a textIn this powerful and unfiltered episode, Willie Rodriguez sits down with Paul Capote owner of PGL, better known as the "Miami Landscaper", for a real conversation about debt, discipline, faith, leadership, and the future of the green industry.Paul has been in the industry for 17 years, and he's still growing, still learning, and still refining. From surviving the COVID boom, to navigating heavy debt, vendor credit, and high-interest loans — this episode pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build a landscaping company in today's Florida market.What We Cover:The Hard Years & The Reset 2023–2024 were tough. Cash flow pressure. Equipment debt. Vendor balances.2025 became the year of repair — clearing trucks, stepping away from vendor credit, tightening operations, and building a stronger foundation.Debt & Financial Accountability– Why high-interest loans should only be used strategically– The danger of promising too much– Why knowing your numbers protects your business– The truth about vendor debt in the industry (yes… SiteOne comes up)– Why Paul is officially “anti-check” and moving fully to ACHLocking in Product & Managing RiskWith Florida freezes, volatile pricing, and supply chain uncertainty, Paul breaks down what it actually means to guarantee pricing in today's environment.To lock in product means tying up capital, space, manpower, and deposits — sometimes increasing costs 25–40%.But for contractors who understand long-term vision?That $100K tied up today could unlock $4–6 million in opportunity tomorrow.The Silver Saw Palmetto example alone is worth the listen.Trust, Documentation & ProfessionalismHandshakes aren't enough anymore.Quotes must be documented.Verbal agreements create chaos.We talk about:– Why eye contact matters– Why documentation protects everyone– Why accountability scares people– How shadiness is hurting the industryRaising the Standard of Blue-Collar WorkPaul speaks passionately about elevating tradesmen:– Remove the word “laborer”– Use titles like Landscape Design Tech– Create pride in the craft– Implement SOPs and production bonuses– Build structure with AI systems like LanaQuality matters. Mulch glue matters. Details matter.“Put your name on it and make it perfect.”Faith, Growth & Breaking Generational CursesThis episode goes deeper than business.Paul opens up about:– Becoming a father– Bringing back his podcast “We the Tradesman”– Leading men's groups– Prioritizing faith over fear– Losing a $100K client and not being shaken– Choosing peace over money“Money is just money. Opportunity to do God's will is more powerful.”This is a conversation about becoming the kind of man — and business owner — who can handle what's coming next.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Read more about Project23 and partner with us as we teach every verse of the Bible on video. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 5:3-5. Few passages in Scripture hit as hard as this one. Paul doesn't soften his tone, negotiate with sin, or try to appease the emotions of the Corinthian church. He issues a clear and urgent verdict. For though absent in body, I am present in spirit; and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who did such a thing. When you are assembled in the name of the Lord Jesus and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus, you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord. — 1 Corinthians 5:3–5 Paul knows that this situation isn't just unhealthy—it's spiritually destructive. The sin is so entrenched, and the man so unrepentant, that drastic action is required. This is immediate and urgent spiritual surgery. What does "deliver this man to Satan" actually mean? Paul isn't calling for torture or physical harm. He isn't asking the church to ruin this man's life. He's calling for something far more purposeful: removal from the protection and fellowship of the church so he experiences the full weight of his sin. Inside the church, the man enjoys spiritual covering, truth, prayer, and community. Outside the church, he feels the consequences of his rebellion without the shelter he had taken for granted. "The destruction of the flesh" refers to breaking down his sinful nature—not destroying his soul. Paul's goal is restoration, not ruin. The goal is always redemption: "that his spirit may be saved." Sometimes, the only path to saving a person is allowing them to feel the emptiness and pain of life apart from God. It's the same pattern we see in the prodigal son: consequences awaken repentance and a "coming to his senses." So why don't churches discipline like this anymore? Two reasons: 1. Fear of "church hurt." Pastors are often afraid to confront sin out of fear they'll be labeled harsh, judgmental, or unloving. But avoiding discipline doesn't protect anyone. It leaves people stuck. 2. Cultural understanding of love (compassion). Our culture equates love with affirmation. Many Christians have embraced this belief, assuming that confronting another's sin is unloving and judgmental. But Scripture teaches the opposite. Love tells the truth. Love corrects. Love rescues. In many churches today, the real scandal isn't that sin exists—it's that believers lack the courage to call sin what God has already called it. Removing discipline removes one of God's strongest tools for spiritual rescue. Discipline isn't rejection—it's rescue. God's discipline is not punishment; it's protection. Scripture also tells us: "The Lord disciplines the one he loves." (Hebrews 12:6) Discipline is never God turning His back on you. It's God refusing to let you destroy yourself. Church discipline, when done biblically, cuts in order to heal. It exposes in order to restore. It protects the body and saves the sinner. Don't despise discipline. Don't reject it. Receive it as grace. Because the only thing worse than being disciplined by God is being left alone in your sin. DO THIS: Ask God to reveal one area where you've resisted discipline or correction. Submit it to Him. Invite a trusted believer to help you walk toward healing. ASK THIS: Why do I avoid correction even when I know it protects me? Where have I confused love with affirmation? How can I receive discipline as a blessing instead of a burden? PRAY THIS: Father, thank You for loving me enough to discipline me. Cut away what corrupts me. Remove what destroys me. Give me a humble heart that welcomes Your correction so I can be healed and restored. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Even When It Hurts"

Morning Mantra: "Remove one unhealthy habit instead of adding another healthy one."You only have so much time in your day.  If you keep adding things to do you are more likely to NOT do some of them.  So why not start your health/healing journey by removing a bad habit.For example, if you start walking but still smoke the two will cancel each other out.  It's better to stop smoking than to add the walking.  Same for if you have too much stress and can't manage it.  Try eliminating some of the stressors before you add on mediation or another thing "to do" to help you manage your stress. Expanding your to do list will only add more stress.If you can, make a list with two columns; one for "things that are unhealthy for me" and one with "what I am doing that is good for my physical and mental health".Now work on removing things from the unhealthy column BEFORE adding anything to the other. Consistency is the key to forming a new habit.  If you overload your day- even when you are trying to do better- the chance of you being able to sustain it diminishes.#BeHealthy #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Pastor Adam BowersWhat do you do with shame that feels bigger than you?In this message from 2 Chronicles 29:5 to 11, Pastor Adam walks us through King Hezekiah stepping into a nation marked by spiritual ruin. The temple was closed, worship had stopped, and the people lived under a heavy legacy of failure and disgrace.Hezekiah did not ignore the shame. He confronted it and called the people back to God.This sermon explores the difference between holy shame that leads to repentance and unhealthy shame that destroys identity. We also see a clear path from shame to renewal through six key words: Listen. Purify. Remove. Remember. Commit. Lead.If shame has been stealing your vision or holding you back from bold faith, this message is for you. Your past does not disqualify you from God's future. Renewal begins when we open the doors again.

The bid by the Prime Minister's Office to strike the word "massacre" from a bill on October 7 commemorations, and Culture and Sports Minister Miki Zohar's claim that the term evokes "victimhood," has sparked outrage. Avi Dabush, CEO of Rabbis for Human Rights and a resident of Kibbutz Nirim in the Gaza periphery, told KAN's Naomi Segal that Zohar's comments and the revision of the bill's title show the disconnect of the leadership from Israelis, and underscore the need for change. Dabush was barricaded with his family in the safe room of his home during the October 7th terrorist onslaught and then displaced for nearly two years. He returned to Nirim this past summer.

Let's open the Bible and walk through James 1 using an ancient practice called Lectio Divina, a intentional way to read Scripture that has been used for centuries. It moves through four simple steps: reading the text carefully, meditating on what stands out, praying in response to what God reveals, and resting quietly in His presence to then act it out.We talk about trials, asking God for wisdom, and why peace can come before circumstances change. This is for anyone who feels unsure how to read the Bible or wants a deeper, more personal relationship with God. Or if you want a fun little Bible study to get you thinking deeper about James 1!If you want to learn more about the practice of lectio divina, here is a helpful websiteConnect with me on:

Should Riot Games remove franchising from League of Legends? In this episode of The Four Horsemen, Monte, Thorin, Richard Lewis, and Guest Horseman/esports attorney Harris Peskin break down why franchising was created, what the teams actually demanded from Riot, how Overwatch League accelerated the timeline, and why dissolving franchising today would be far more complicated—and far more damaging—than many fans realize. We also cover the recent 2XKO news and the flawed arguments in The Wooloo article calling for franchising to be removed. NOTE: The opening line of this episode was re-recorded due to an error.

What God Calls Pure Christianity (And Why It's So Uncomfortable) What if much of what we call Christianity… God wouldn't call pure? In this powerful episode of The Rob Skinner Podcast, Rob explores the simple yet challenging definition of real faith found in James 1:27. When church culture, traditions, and labels are stripped away, Scripture reveals a clear picture of what God considers pure and faultless religion: Loving the vulnerable and living with a clean heart. Rob unpacks how early Christians transformed the world through radical compassion—serving the sick, the poor, and the forgotten—even at great personal cost. But James' message doesn't stop with outward action. True faith also requires guarding our inner life from the quiet spiritual pollution that can dull our devotion. This episode is a call to live with: Radical compassion toward those in need Personal purity in a culture that pulls us away from God Balanced faith that is both outwardly loving and inwardly clean Through personal stories, ministry reflections, and practical challenges, Rob invites you to examine: Who around you needs protection, encouragement, or help What habits or influences may be quietly polluting your heart How to live the kind of faith that God calls pure and faultless If you want a simple definition of a 10X Christian, this might be it: Love radically. Live purely. And that kind of faith doesn't just change you— it changes the world.

The 94 WIP Midday Show are reacting to news of Zack Wheeler keeping his rib that was removed during his thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) surgery. Also, there is more news around the NL East that certainly benefits the Phillies. Mets infielder Fransisco Lindor and Braves RP Spencer Schwellenbach are both dealing with injuries that will affect their respective teams.

In this final episode of The Becoming Years series, the conversation reframes midlife as an identity shift and powerful invitation rather than a breakdown. Dr. Anna Marie explores loneliness among high-achieving women, the impact of nervous system burnout, and how changing bodies and roles call for new ways of living. Listeners are encouraged to prioritize self-care, deepen relationships through honest conversations, and courageously pursue what they truly desire in the second half of life. Practical reflection tools—like the "seven whys" exercise—are shared to help uncover deeper needs and design a more aligned, energizing future.   Key Points Midlife is an identity shift, not a breakdown You are not behind; you are becoming Loneliness is common for high-achieving women after 40 Career, parenting, and success can quietly erode connections Exhaustion often comes from nervous system burnout, not weakness Invisible labor and hormonal shifts add to midlife fatigue Regulating the nervous system is vital for healthy relationships Partners benefit from syncing and co-regulating together Honest conversations about needs reduce the urge to "fix" each other Self-care: eat well, move your body, protect your energy Remove activities and relationships that drain you Focus on what fills you up and brings genuine joy Forgive yourself for relationships that have run their course Midlife is a chance to reinvent friendships and lifestyle Try small changes: new routes, classes, trips, experiences Be bold and stop living by others' expectations You can choose a different path for the second half of life Feeling empty or ungrateful after success is common, not wrong Deeper conversations about "taboo" feelings are essential Use the "seven whys" exercise to find root causes of feelings Share this series with someone who might need this message Listeners are invited to leave a review and reflect on what they truly want Connect with Dr. Anna Marie: Email: annamarie@happywholeyou.com / info@HappyWholeYou.com Website: www.happywholeyou.com / https://linktr.ee/happywholeyou Personal Website: www.DrAnnaMarie.com Instagram: @happywholeyou Personal Instagram: @Dr.Anna.Marie Facebook: Happy Whole You LinkedIn: Anna Marie Frank Venmo: @happywholeyou  

Luxury doesn't mean more steps. It means fewer problems before guests even notice them. Suzanne "Dr. Producer" Bagnera, PhD, and I spoke with Mourad Essafi, General Manager of Impression Isla Mujeres (a Hyatt all-inclusive), on #NoVacancyNews about what ultra-luxury actually looks like when you stop adding layers and start removing friction. Mourad talks about how his background in sales and operations shapes the way he runs the resort, why the arrival experience starts before guests ever reach the island, and how small operational decisions change how people actually feel about a stay. We also get into what "endless privileges" really means in practice, why convenience often beats opulence, and how guest feedback turns into real changes on property. We cover:

If we, even in part, live according to the world, then we are susceptible to the doubt and fear within it. Without full, complete, wholehearted commitment to Christ, any joy we build will be temporary, shallow, and within the confines of our own power. But God offers so much more! In Christ, entirely in Christ, there is eternal, deep, and founded in the power of the almighty God! How do we get there?

Today on Window Treatments for Profit In Part 4 of the WWLD series, LuAnn Nigara breaks down how window treatment business owners unknowingly become the bottleneck and the one decision that restores time, clarity, and control. In this episode of Window Treatments for Profit, we continue the WWLD January series with Decision #4: Remove One Operational Bottleneck That Wastes Time Every Week. This is not about working harder or hiring faster.It's about recognizing where you, as the owner, may be unintentionally slowing the business down. LuAnn walks through real-world scenarios that window treatment business owners experience every day: Orders delayed because the sale moved on but the backend didn't Installer details living in the owner's head instead of a system Schedule chaos caused by missing handoffs Sales teams and admins doing their best without clear processes Drawing lessons from candid conversations on A Well-Designed Business with Rebecca Hay, Beth Diana Smith, and Hilaire Pickett Martin, LuAnn connects the dots between anxiety, resistance, and leadership responsibility. You'll learn: Why owner-operators often become the bottleneck without realizing it How undocumented processes quietly erode profit, trust, and time Why resistance to systems isn't about being busy—it's about fear How removing just one bottleneck can immediately restore control If your business relies on your memory, constant involvement, or last-minute fixes, this episode will hit close to home. This is CEO-level thinking for window treatment professionals who want fewer fires, clearer systems, and a business that runs well—even when they're not in the room.

It is a curious mistake of the modern world to imagine that Christians best serve society by becoming bland and tame, like toothless lions. Our Lord did not tell His followers, “be like everyone else” but salt and light. He wanted them to change the world around them.Salt, after all, does not exist for its own sake. It preserves, sharpens, and reveals flavor. A society may have abundance, efficiency, and cleverness, and yet still taste oddly thin. When Christians live their Catholic faith honestly – praying when prayer is unfashionable, forgiving when resentment would be easier, welcoming life where it is inconvenient – they restore depth to the human experience. They remind the world that truth is not invented, that goodness is not a private hobby, and that love is more than sentiment. Remove the salt, and decay is not dramatic at first; it is simply inevitable.Light works differently. It does not argue with the darkness; it exposes it by being present. A single lamp does not abolish the night, but it makes orientation possible. In the same way, Catholics who live their faith publicly through works of mercy, fidelity in marriage, care for the poor, reverence for the weak,do not claim moral superiority. They simply make visible a way of living that assumes God is real and that human beings are made for more than comfort or consumption.The great contribution, then, is not power or prestige, but witness. The Christian adds to society a stubborn hope that refuses to believe evil is final, a patience grounded in eternity, and a joy that does not depend on circumstances behaving themselves. Such people are often inconvenient. Salt stings in open wounds; light reveals what some would rather keep hidden. Yet without them, society may grow cleverer and louder, but not wiser.When Catholics live as salt and light, they do not escape the world. They help save it from spoiling, and from forgetting what it is for.
