Unconditional love and a reciprocal relationship are not the same thing. Importantly, participation in a relationship is each individual's choice.In this conversation, Dr. Janet and Brianna sit with why that difference matters so much in estrangement. We can love someone unconditionally as an individual. We are not able to build a healthy relationship with them on our own. Both people must choose to participate because a reciprocal relationship asks both people to show up, to define boundaries together, and to keep choosing each other as adults. Janet and Brianna trace the clunky shift from parent and child into an adult to adult relationship, the space that first led to their estrangement, and then made their own repair possible. Learn the simple set of questions that can bring a strained or estranged relationship back into balance. IN THIS EPISODE Why unconditional love and a reciprocal relationship are two separate things, and why blending them keeps us stuck The clunky, awkward shift from parent as decider into a relationship between two adults, and why naming it helps How constant contact and social media reshape the way our children grow into their own lives Why space, and sometimes no contact, can be the most powerful move toward repair The four questions that help both people find their way back to balance How boundaries, demands, and expectations differ, and how they are meant to change over time Why disagreement is not rejection, for parents or for adult children CORE MESSAGE"I can love you unconditionally by myself. I cannot create a healthy relationship with you by myself." Dr. Janet Steinkamp VOICES FROM THIS EPISODE "Unconditional love and reciprocal relationships do not go hand in hand. They are two different things." Brianna "I had to step away from being the unilateral decision maker, and I cannot tell you how much better life feels not carrying that anymore." Dr. Janet "Respecting the space we ask for is the most powerful thing a parent can do for the relationship." Brianna "Our kids do not stop loving us, even when they are setting boundaries. It is the relationship that needs the focus."

Eric Jensen and Tyler Schuster break down the week 2 college football action and look ahead to CFB week 3.
Transitions are often the first part of the preschool day to fall apart for autistic children, especially when routines change, activities end, or expectations shift quickly. Every. Single. Year. In this episode, Tara is talking less about transition tricks and more about why transitions are genuinely so hard for many autistic preschoolers. A transition can involve much more than moving from one activity to another. A child may need to shift their attention, leave a deeply engaging activity, process new sensory input, understand what is happening next, and regulate the emotions that come with an unexpected or unwanted change. Because once we understand the why, the strategies finally have a better chance of sticking. Why Are Transitions So Hard for Autistic Children? Transitions can be difficult for autistic children because they often require several demanding shifts at the same time. A child may need to stop an activity, redirect their attention, enter a different sensory environment, process new language, and manage uncertainty about what is coming next. What looks like refusal or noncompliance may actually reflect overwhelm, difficulty shifting attention, sensory stress, or a need for more time and information. How Does Predictability Affect Transitions? Predictability helps an autistic child understand what is happening now and what will happen next. When a routine changes unexpectedly or a child does not have enough information about what is coming, that uncertainty can make the transition much harder. Consistent routines, visual information, and advance notice can make the day feel more understandable and manageable. This does not mean every part of the day has to happen exactly the same way. It means we give children clear information when something is about to change. Can Sensory Changes Make Transitions More Difficult? Yes. A transition often involves much more than physically moving from one activity or location to another. A child may be moving from a quiet space into a noisy classroom, from dim lighting into bright lighting, or from a familiar activity into an environment filled with different sounds, smells, people, and movement. Even when the next activity looks simple to an adult, the sensory shift may feel significant to the child. Looking at what changes between the two environments can help us understand why a specific transition is difficult. What Does Executive Functioning Have to Do With Transitions? Executive functioning helps us shift attention, organize our next steps, remember what we are supposed to do, and move from one task to another. These mental shifts can require significant effort for autistic preschoolers. A child may understand that circle time is over but still need extra time to disengage, process the next direction, organize their body, and move toward the next activity. Instead of assuming the child is refusing to transition, consider how many separate steps their brain is being asked to manage all at once. What Is Monotropism? Monotropism is a way of understanding the deep, focused attention many autistic people experience. An autistic child may become intensely engaged in one interest, activity, or sensory experience at a time. That deep attention can support learning, creativity, regulation, and connection. It can also make abruptly shifting away from an activity especially difficult. When a child is deeply engaged, leaving that activity may not feel like a simple request to clean up. The child may need time, information, and support to shift their attention. Respecting that deep engagement does not mean transitions never happen. It means we recognize that the transition may require more effort than it appears to from the outside. How Can We Make Transitions Easier for Autistic Preschoolers? Making transitions easier begins with understanding what is making the transition hard for that particular child. Once we understand the underlying need, we can choose a support that gives the child more predictability, processing time, and access. A visual schedule may help a child who does not know what is coming next. A predictable warning may help a child who needs more time to shift their attention. A video model may help a child understand an unfamiliar routine. Sensory support may help when the next environment feels overwhelming. There is not one transition strategy that works for every autistic child. The most effective support is the one that matches the reason the transition is difficult. Transition Supports Mentioned in This Episode • Use a visual schedule so the child can see what is happening now and what will happen next • Give clear, predictable warnings before an activity ends • Use consistent words or visual cues during familiar transitions • Allow additional processing time before repeating a direction • Validate that stopping a preferred or deeply engaging activity can be difficult • Consider the sensory differences between the current activity and the next one • Use video modeling to preview unfamiliar routines or environments • Create predictable transition routines that children can learn over time • Reduce unnecessary verbal language during stressful moments • Watch for early signs of overwhelm instead of waiting for the transition to fall apart In This Episode, You'll Learn • Why transitions can create genuine stress for autistic preschoolers • How routine and predictability support smoother transitions • Why sensory changes can make a seemingly simple transition overwhelming • How executive functioning affects a child's ability to stop, shift, and begin something new • What monotropism can teach us about deep attention and engagement • Why difficult transitions should not automatically be labeled as noncompliance • How visual schedules can make upcoming changes easier to understand • Why processing time matters when a child is shifting their attention • How validation and empathy support children during difficult transitions • Why understanding the cause should come before choosing a strategy Key Takeaways • Difficult transitions are not automatically refusal or noncompliance • Transitions may involve changes in attention, sensory input, language, environment, and expectations • Predictability can reduce uncertainty and anxiety • Sensory differences are an important part of the transition experience • Deep engagement is meaningful and should be respected • Autistic children may need more time to shift their attention • Visual information can make transitions more concrete and understandable • Validation belongs alongside practical transition supports • Strategies are more effective when they respond to the actual reason the transition is hard • Support should make transitions more accessible, not simply make children move faster Try This Choose one transition that tends to fall apart first. Before adding another timer, song, reward, or verbal reminder, pause and look at the transition from the child's perspective. What are they being asked to stop? What sensory changes happen next? Do they know where they are going and what will happen when they get there? Are they deeply engaged in the activity they are leaving? How much time are they being given to shift their attention? How much spoken language are they being asked to process during the transition? Once you understand what may be making the transition genuinely difficult, choose one support that responds to that need. Maybe it is a visual schedule. Maybe it is a predictable warning. Maybe it is a short video showing what will happen. Maybe it is changing the way the next environment feels. Or maybe the biggest shift is simply giving the child more time. The most effective transition strategy is not always the newest trick. It is the one that matches the reason the transition is hard. Related Resources & Links
What if one of the biggest bottlenecks in your dealership isn't lead volume at all, but having the right people in the right seats? In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams are joined by Brandon Anderson for a powerful conversation about automotive Outsource BDC, Internet Sales, recruiting, staffing, and dealership efficiency. "Respecting people and talent is crucial... Understanding their impact is a win for everyone." - Brandon Anderson Using comparisons from the world of professional sports, the conversation breaks down why dealerships should stop treating hiring like a last-minute emergency and start thinking more strategically about talent.

"Winners hang with winners... When I realized Sean was a winner, I wanted to be a part of that team." - Brandon Anderson The episode also explores when outsourcing makes sense, how expert BDC support can strengthen dealership performance, and why proper alignment between people, process, and expectations can have a major impact on sales and profitability. "Your time is important... Don't focus on things that aren't going to move you towards the goal line." - Sean V. Bradley If you're a Dealer Principal, GM, GSM, Internet Director, or BDC Manager trying to improve lead handling, recruiting, efficiency, and overall dealership performance, this episode gives you a fresh perspective on how to build a stronger operation without giving away the entire playbook.
What does faithful Christian citizenship look like? Michael Easley sits down with Troy Miller, president of the National Religious Broadcasters, to discuss why Christians should understand their civic responsibility and engage culture with biblical courage. They explore Romans 13, voting, midterm elections, civic responsibility, the role of pastors, voter guides, the 501(c)(3) question, cultural engagement, and the challenge of discipling the next generation. This conversation isn't ultimately about political parties. It's about stewardship, leadership, discipleship, and whether Christians are willing to faithfully engage the culture God has placed them in.

Why New Leaders Shouldn't Rush to Change EverythingYour first day as a leader can feel like a test.Everyone is watching. You want to prove yourself.

Ask a question hereWARNING: This episode is intentionally abrasive. It contains strong language, blunt opinions, and an alarming lack of patience for sales pitches disguised as education. If professional disagreement offends you, consider this your continuing education credit in hurt feelings. Not all pool industry education is created equal—and “free” education is rarely free.In this episode, Rudy examines the difference between manufacturer-funded seminars, paid independent instruction, field experience, and research-based education. A company trainer may know the product inside and out, but does that knowledge survive on a real equipment pad? A veteran may have decades of stories, but do those personal experiences have evidence behind them? And when every road in a seminar conveniently leads to the sponsor's product, did you attend a class—or a sales pitch with continuing education credits stapled to it?Rudy also addresses the criticism he received after publicly supporting Pool Brain's hiring of Erik Knight. Respecting someone does not mean agreeing with every position they hold. Professional disagreement is healthy when people show their work, provide sources, remain open to challenges, and understand the limits of their own knowledge.Before investing your money—or four hours of your life and half a turkey sandwich—research the instructor as carefully as you research the class.In This EpisodeWhy supporting an educator does not require treating everything they teach as gospelErik Knight's role in bringing LSI into the everyday pool industry conversationThe difference between disagreement and intellectual dishonestyWhy today's pool professionals may be overwhelmed by too much educationManufacturer education versus paid independent instructionWhy “free” seminars still have a cost and an agendaThe difference between product knowledge and field experienceWhy personal experience is valuable—but not automatically universal truthHow research and field experience should challenge and strengthen one anotherThe warning signs of a sales presentation disguised as educationQuestions to ask before registering for any classWhy expertise in one subject does not qualify someone to teach everythingThe value of an instructor willing to say, “I don't know”The strongest educators understand both the literature and the realities of the field.

Kevin and Peter sit down with Robby Chaney, who describes himself as a runner, hiker, and death marcher, and who has spent more time chasing cutoffs than almost anyone in the sport.Robby's first trail race was a 40K in 2018 that went so badly he wrote off trail running entirely. New shoes he'd never worn, a vest he'd never used, and temperatures over 100 degrees. Then a volunteer request for a race called Cocodona 250 landed in his inbox, and the number stuck in his head. Six years later he has four 200-mile finishes, a starring role in a film about the very thing he's spent his career outrunning, and a 2026 Grand Slam on the calendar.We get into what the back of the pack actually looks like from the inside: 100-plus hour races, aid stations where you turn around and walk straight back out, and the compounding physical, mental, and emotional cost of days on course. Robby also walks us through his 2025 Cocodona, where he made it to roughly mile 220 before his lungs quit on him in Walnut Canyon. Pulse ox in the low 80s, an IV, and a search and rescue extraction. (Peter, who also got to mile 220 and didn't finish, offers a competing explanation for his own DNF: he got tired.)The conversation closes somewhere we didn't expect. In 2002, Robby was stabbed by a stranger and left bleeding on the street. He woke up in the ICU and was told he'd probably never walk again. He used a cane for years. He turned 50 last month and is signed up for close to a thousand miles of racing.In this episode:(01:15) Aspirational ultrarunner: what "death march" actually means(02:26) What people get wrong about the back of the pack(05:41) From a miserable 40K to signing up for a 250(08:25) Coldwater Rumble 2024 and learning what a cutoff is mid-race(11:04) Respecting the cutoff without fearing it(13:37) DNFs as data points, and the trekking poles that cost him Mogollon Monster(16:27) Getting the email from Dylan and Emily, mid-race, on a ridgeline(19:40) What happened in Walnut Canyon(23:37) 2002, the ICU, and the twenty-year road backThe Cutoff is out from Aravaipa.

If/Then: Research findings to help us navigate complex issues in business, leadership, and society
What if purpose is what drives us to act, but meaning comes from how those actions affect other people?This week on If/Then, we're sharing a conversation between two Stanford GSB colleagues: Think Fast, Talk Smart host Matt Abrahams and organizational behavior professor Brian Lowery.Recorded live at Stanford's LEAD Me2We event, Matt and Brian explore the difference between purpose and meaning, why meaning is rooted in our relationships with others, and how the way we show up shapes the people around us. They also discuss sincerity, leadership, and how to give feedback that helps people feel seen rather than judged.It's a conversation about the ripple effects of our interactions — and what they mean for how we work, lead, and connect with others.Related Content:Think Fast Talk Smart, the podcastMatt AbrahamsBrian LoweryChapters:00:00:00 Introduction00:01:14 Meaning vs. purpose00:02:14 How to find purpose00:02:50 Finding meaning through service to others00:04:49 How relationships shape identity00:05:54 The leader's role in shaping others00:09:32 Self-awareness and psychological safety00:11:10 Respecting perspectives you don't share00:12:23 Sincerity vs. authenticity00:13:28 Giving feedback that people can hear00:17:47 What it means to be a better human00:18:57 ConclusionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In this episode, Jason explains why people cannot be expected to rely on memory, motivation, or willpower alone. Respecting people means creating stable systems that help them consistently succeed. Jason connects human behavior, neurodivergence, attention, memory, and natural biological tendencies to the need for standard work, visual systems, daily reminders, and consistent routines. He explains that Lean is not about blaming people when something is forgotten or missed, it is about designing an environment that supports people through stability and standardization. What you'll learn in this episode: Why relying on memory, motivation, and natural habits creates inconsistency. How standard work and visual systems help people succeed more reliably. Why daily communication and repetition are necessary to reinforce expectations and culture. How respect for people connects directly to stability, standardization, and better system design. Are you expecting people to remember and perform perfectly on their own, or have you designed systems that make success easier and more consistent?

Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights The conversation focuses on the unique challenges and cultural dynamics faced by mid-singles in the Latter-day Saint community, particularly in Utah, and how leaders can better support this demographic. Key Insights Cultural Dynamics: Mid-singles often feel disconnected in family wards due to the predominance of married members in leadership roles, leading to feelings of exclusion and instability. Out-of-Unit Members: Many mid-singles attend their neighborhood wards while also participating in mid-singles wards, creating a challenge for leaders to maintain engagement and consistency. Family Influence: Family obligations can pull mid-singles away from ward activities, making it difficult for them to build connections within their ward family. Spiritual Focus: Rob emphasizes that the primary role of leaders is to connect members with Christ, rather than solely focusing on helping them get married. Meaningful Activities: Activities should be Christ-centered and relevant to the members’ lives, fostering a sense of community and belonging. Leadership Applications Encourage Engagement: Leaders should create an environment where mid-singles feel valued and included, recognizing their unique challenges and encouraging them to participate in ward activities. Foster Connections: Leaders can facilitate opportunities for mid-singles to connect with each other and with Christ through intentional, spiritually uplifting activities that focus on attributes of Jesus Christ. Communicate with Families: Leaders should engage with the families of mid-singles to help them understand the importance of allowing their loved ones the space to build their own lives and relationships within the ward community. 00:02:30 – Cultural Dynamics in Mid-Singles Wards 00:04:00 – Understanding the Mid-Singles Experience 00:04:30 – Interview with Bishop Robert Cornilles Begins 00:05:00 – Bishop Cornilles’s Calling Story 00:07:00 – Formation of the New Mid-Singles Ward 00:08:30 – Challenges of Serving a Mid-Singles Ward 00:10:00 – Selecting Counselors for the Bishopric 00:12:00 – Current Responsibilities as a Bishop 00:13:00 – Mid-Singles Bishops Councils in Utah 00:15:00 – The Need for Mid-Singles Wards 00:16:00 – Cultural Challenges for Mid-Singles 00:20:00 – Navigating Family Dynamics and Church Involvement 00:22:00 – The Dilemma of Out-of-Unit Members 00:25:00 – Building a Strong Ward Culture 00:28:00 – Encouraging Engagement in the Ward 00:30:00 – The Importance of Personal Relationships 00:32:00 – Respecting the Needs of Mid-Singles 00:34:00 – Connecting Members with Christ 00:37:00 – Creating Meaningful Activities 00:40:00 – Intentionality in Planning Activities 00:46:00 – Monthly Themes and Attributes of Christ The award-winning Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top independent Latter-day Saints podcasts as part of nonprofit Leading Saints’ mission to help Latter-day Saints be better prepared to lead.

Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need. — Ephesians 4:28 Can you guess what the most common crime is in any country?If you guess that stealing is the most common crime, that's right—shoplifting, burglary, identity theft, credit card fraud, tax evasion, embezzlement, graft, car theft, plagiarism, and more. There are so many ways to steal from others that it can be tricky to list them all.In the eighth commandment —“You shall not steal” (Exodus 20:15)—we can see that God loathes theft.Why does God condemn the taking of others' property, possessions, and more?The root problem is that when we take what God has given to others, even in small amounts, we demean them. We do so by reducing others and their possessions to “resources” that we want to use or just keep for ourselves. Moreover, when we take from others, we rob them of the opportunity to be stewards of what God has given them to show gratitude to him and to bless others. Ultimately, theft isn't just a shifting of property and possessions; it shows contempt for the fact that we are “created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”The eighth commandment reminds us that in trusting God for our own needs, we also display our love for others. Lord, God, all that we have is a trust from you. Help us to faithfully take care of and use what you have given us and to protect what you have given to others. Amen.

What if everything we've been taught about wealth is backwards? In this deeply personal solo episode, Darin opens up about a subject he rarely discusses: money. After making millions of dollars, losing wealth more than once, trusting the wrong people, making bad investments, fighting lawsuits, and rebuilding again, Darin shares the lessons that completely transformed his relationship with money. He explores the conflicting money beliefs he inherited from his parents, why trusting someone's promises instead of their patterns cost him dearly, and why he now believes discernment should come before net worth. Darin also explains why money shouldn't be the destination but rather a tool for creation, contribution, and impact. From investing in himself and spending years building projects before they generated income to creating stronger financial structures and learning to protect what he creates, this episode is about redefining wealth beyond accumulation. Darin reveals why true abundance comes from aligning money with your purpose, vision, values, and the things you genuinely care about. What You'll Learn Why Darin believes most of what we're taught about wealth is backwards How trusting the wrong people cost him millions of dollars Why taking 100% responsibility helped him reclaim his financial power The conflicting money lessons Darin inherited from his mother and father Why money should be treated as a tool for creation rather than the destination What Darin means when he says wealth is a cycle of receiving and giving Why betting on yourself may be the most important investment you make How Darin invested years of time and money into projects before they became profitable Why discernment, alignment, and clear agreements matter more than chasing opportunities How to build wealth around a vision for your life rather than allowing money to define your identity Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:34 – Sponsor: Fatty15 00:04:15 – Why Darin is finally talking about wealth 00:04:31 – Making millions, losing it, and learning from it 00:05:26 – Why everything we're taught about wealth may be backwards 00:05:52 – The fatal conveniences of modern money 00:06:27 – The danger of handing your financial power to "experts" 00:07:19 – How ignoring discernment cost Darin millions 00:07:52 – Trust the pattern, not the promise 00:08:18 – Taking 100% responsibility for financial mistakes 00:08:51 – The hidden belief that money will simply show up 00:09:32 – What if money could tell you how you're treating it? 00:10:22 – The two conflicting money lessons Darin learned growing up 00:10:49 – What his father taught him about earning and discipline 00:11:13 – How his mother's generosity created a conflicting belief 00:12:06 – Making money was easy.

It's a powerful tool of creation. Build your discernment before you build your net worth, bet on yourself before handing your power to someone else's opportunity, and align your money with the things you genuinely care about. True wealth isn't a pile you accumulate—it's a cycle of receiving, creating, contributing, and giving in service of a vision that means something to you."
Chasing allocated bottles and overhyped secondary market releases often leads to overpriced disappointments while world-class heritage pours hide in plain sight. Modern whiskey consumers spend months hunting rare unicorns, completely ignoring the foundational distilleries that built the entire industry. Grounding your palate in legacy brands is the quickest way to separate actual distillation quality from clever scarcity marketing.We sit down with whiskey expert Russ Kempton to break down why foundational bottles from Jim Beam, Jack Daniel's, Buffalo Trace, Evan Williams, and Wild Turkey remain the gold standard of American spirits. We get into the legal distinctions between straight bourbon and Tennessee whiskey, the thermal dynamics of multi-story rickhouse aging, and the exact science behind sour mash setback traditions. Russ Kempton also breaks down how master blenders utilize diverse campus microclimates to achieve rock-solid flavor consistency year after year.Building an exceptional palate requires pushing past secondary market hype and acknowledging the physical realities of spirit maturation, oak contact, and proof adjustments. Viewers will walk away with a deeper appreciation for shelf-stable staples, along with a practical framework for evaluating pour value without overpaying. Respecting the history of brown liquor ultimately changes how you shop the aisle and what you expect from your glass.If you care about spirits history, distillery operations, and whiskey evaluation, you will get a lot from this episode.

Welcome to episode 259 of Grasp the Bible. In this episode, we will examine the blessing of boundaries — why healthy relationships require appropriate limits, and why setting and respecting boundaries is an act of love, not a failure of it. Key takeaways: Boundaries feel wrong to many Christians because we have been taught that love means always being available, always saying yes, always accommodating others' needs. But Proverbs 25:17 teaches that even good relationships need limits. Constant presence breeds contempt; appropriate limits protect connection. The Hebrew word translated “seldom” in this proverb actually means “precious” or “rare.” The instruction is not to avoid people but to make your presence valuable rather than presumptuous. Scarcity produces appreciation; saturation produces aversion. Even the Trinity models boundaries. The persons of the Godhead are not merged or confused — they remain distinct while perfectly unified. Intimacy does not require the erasure of limits. Deep connection and appropriate separateness are not opposites. Presumption violates the voluntary nature of relationship. When you treat someone's hospitality as obligation rather than gift, you transform a freely chosen relationship into something coercive. Most people will not confront the boundary-crosser — they will quietly resent them until the relationship ruptures. Jesus regularly withdrew from crowds, limited access even to His disciples, and maintained limits with His own family. If Jesus — perfect in love — needed boundaries, how much more do we? Boundaries are not a failure of devotion; they are a mark of wisdom. You cannot love your neighbor well if you are completely depleted from over-extending. The person who sets no boundaries eventually burns out or grows bitter — neither of which serves relationship. Sustainable love requires limits. “No” to one thing allows “yes” to the right things. Respecting someone's limits communicates that their time, space, and energy are valuable. That is love in action. Quotable: Boundaries are not barriers to relationship — they are the framework that makes sustainable, loving connection possible. You are not being selfish when you set limits. You are being a good steward of what God has given you so that you can keep giving it. Application: Examine whether you are smothering people with your presence or demands. Are you the person who calls multiple times daily, drops by unannounced, monopolizes people's time, or expects immediate responses? The fact that someone is gracious does not mean they are available. The fact that they are friendly does not mean they are free. Love does not presume — it honors limits even when the other person is too kind to enforce them. Stop interpreting other people's limits as rejection. When someone says “I can't right now,” believe them. When they need space, give it. When they ask you to call first, honor it. A person setting a boundary is not telling you they don't care about you — they are being honest about their capacity so they can love you sustainably rather than resentfully. Receiving a “no” graciously is itself an act of love. If you need to set boundaries, stop feeling guilty for it. You are not being selfish or un-Christlike. You are stewarding finite resources. Identify one relationship where you have been depleted because you kept saying yes when you meant no. What would one honest, kind limit look like in that relationship? You do not owe anyone unlimited access to your time, energy, or emotional bandwidth — and pretending you do will eventually produce resentment, not love. Make your presence valuable, not presumptuous. Relationships have a rhythm — together and apart, access and space, availability and autonomy. Consider how you show up in your closest relationships. Are you contributing to that rhythm or disrupting it? Presence that is chosen freely is a gift. Presence that is demanded or presumed becomes a burden. Aim to be the kind of person whose company is looked forward to, not dreaded.

Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. — Romans 13:1 Throughout history, most cultures around the world have understood the family as the “building block” of human society. And many of these cultures operate with the foundational idea that where the family is strong, the society is strong.This general understanding of the importance of the family unit should come as no surprise, since this is how God has ordered human social life for flourishing. In the family, children learn to honor, respect, and obey their parents, whom God has given them. From lessons learned in the home, children mature into productive citizens in the societies where God, in his sovereign wisdom, has placed them. And just as God has called children to honor and obey their parents, all people are called to honor and obey the earthly authorities God has established.So the scope of the fifth commandment extends beyond the family to include the authority of teachers, elders, pastors, and governing authorities. In Romans 13 the apostle Paul lays out in detail the consequential meaning of submitting to those in authority over us. No earthly authority is absolute, of course. But in general God calls us to submit to governing authorities and to pray for wisdom as they make decisions for the common good. Authorities and governments can be changed, if necessary, but if they seek our good and that of our neighbors, they generally serve as God's instruments for peace and well-being. Almighty God, as we trust in your love and wisdom, help us to honor and obey those in authority over us. For Jesus' sake, Amen.
This week on the Midwest Flyways Podcast, Joey joins some of the biggest voices in waterfowl for a special roundtable recorded at the Delta Waterfowl Expo. Ramsey Russell, Jeff Stanfield, Jon Sandvik, Billy Campbell, and Joel Brice sit down alongside Joey to talk about something that affects every duck hunter—the need for a stronger, more unified waterfowl community. From public land competition and social media negativity to declining habitat and hunter recruitment, the group digs into why duck hunters can be so hard on each other and what needs to change. They discuss the unwritten rules of public land hunting, respecting other hunters, helping newcomers instead of running them off, and why the way we represent waterfowl hunting matters for its future. The conversation also explores how duck hunting has changed over the decades. Better gear, shrinking habitat, increased pressure, fewer secret spots, and easier access to information have changed the experience—but the guys agree that treating each other better can go a long way. Joey also shares why introducing new hunters and getting kids into the field has always been such an important part of Midwest Flyways. At the end of the day, everyone at the table shares the same goal: more ducks, more hunters, and a waterfowl community that's worth passing on to the next generation. Topics Covered: •Unifying the waterfowl hunting community •Public land hunting etiquette •Social media's impact on duck hunting •Hunter competition and pressure •Declining waterfowl habitat •Introducing new hunters to duck hunting •Getting kids into the outdoors •Respecting other hunters and the resource •Passing hunting traditions to the next generation Thanks for listening to the Midwest Flyways Podcast!

In this electric episode of Chats & Tatts, host Aaron Della Vedova sits down with comedian, former directional driller, and internet powerhouse Uncle Laser. Transitioning from high-stakes $500,000-a-year oil rig operations in 120-degree heat to stepping onto the Kill Tony stage for his very first stand-up set ever, Laser shares a raw, unfiltered look into his explosive journey. The conversation dives deep into the parallels between blue-collar labor and high-pressure performance, the harsh reality of burning through savings to chase a dream, and the profound moment a fan's story made him realize comedy is far bigger than money or fame. Beyond the stage antics, Aaron and Laser unpack the mechanics of stand-up writing, navigating crowds without losing authenticity, and lessons learned from comedy heavyweights like Joe Rogan, Tony Hinchcliffe, and Brian Redban. They delve into wild personal stories, high-volume gambling, matrix-like algorithm theories, the existential threat of AI, and why staying true to yourself is the ultimate key to longevity in both life and entertainment.

This week we are flashing back to a previous conversation from earlier this year. It's a powerful conversation and I would like to bring it back into the spotlight this week for those who may have missed the original airing. Enjoy... Taking over the family farm is about far more than land, equipment, and financial statements — it's about legacy, identity, pressure, and responsibility. In this episode of The Impact Farming Show, Tracy sits down with Trevor MacLean from MNP to explore the emotional and business realities of transitioning a farm from one generation to the next. Together, they unpack what it really means to be "walking in the shadows" of previous generations while trying to build a future of your own. Trevor shares insights from working with farm families across Canada, discussing the emotional weight many successors carry, common transition mistakes, communication challenges, leadership shifts, and how families can create healthier and more successful succession plans. Whether you're the next generation stepping into leadership or the senior generation preparing for transition, this conversation offers practical wisdom and honest perspective on one of the most important journeys in agriculture. Episode Highlights • What "walking in the shadows" really looks like on family farms • The emotional and financial pressure facing the next generation • Balancing respect for tradition while building your own vision • Common mistakes during leadership transition • Key conversations farm families need to have early • What a healthy farm transition timeline can look like • How senior generations can better support successors • Encouragement for those carrying the weight of the family legacy Timestamps 01:47 – Introduction to the episode and guest Trevor MacLean 03:48 – What "walking in the shadows" means for the next generation 09:59 – Emotional and financial pressures of taking over the family farm 20:18 – Respecting legacy while creating your own vision 28:28 – Common transition and leadership mistakes 38:48 – Important conversations families need to have early 49:08 – What healthy succession timelines look like 55:48 – How senior generations can support successors 1:01:48 – Trevor's advice for the next generation of farm leaders 1:05:43 – Encouragement for those carrying the weight of the family farm legacy 1:07:48 – Closing thoughts and final takeaways These conversations matter and the more openly we talk about the emotional and business realities of transition, the stronger the future of agriculture becomes.

In this episode of the Audiobook Lovin' Podcast, Viviana shares her recap of Villains & Vixens 2026 before diving into two important conversations shaping the audiobook community. Why should authors market their audiobook editions just as prominently as their paperbacks, ebooks, and hardcovers at in-person events? And why is it so important to respect narrator pseudonyms and protect their privacy? Originally recorded during a TikTok LIVE, this candid discussion explores audiobook visibility, narrator advocacy, and ways authors, narrators, and readers can work together to strengthen the industry. Whether you're an author, narrator, publisher, or audiobook lover, this episode offers insights and perspectives you won't want to miss.

In this exclusive episode of Deepen with Christina, host Christina Weber sits down with global movement pioneer Jason Nemer, the co-founder of Acro Yoga and the visionary architect behind an ultra-exclusive, underground wellness movement known as The Body Party. Broadcasting live from Austin, Texas, Jason breaks his silence on the inner workings of his high-investment somatic experiences—where a 1:1 ratio of elite practitioners to guests unlocks deep childhood and ancestral traumas trapped within the physical form. Whether you are single, coupled, a high-performing entrepreneur, or a somatic seeker, this episode explores the profound integration of movement, connection, radical play, and how physical coregulation acts as the ultimate bedrock for a thriving intimacy journey. Main Topics Covered The Intersect of Intimacy and Career: How mastering your relationship dynamics somatic intelligence elevates your performance across corporate structures and personal creative endeavors. The "Love List" Evolution: Navigating the maturation of romantic desire from superficial parameters to core indicators like respect, playfulness, and emotional security. The Genesis of Acro Yoga: The 2003 San Francisco origin story of blending masculine partner acrobatics with the feminine, healing surrender of therapeutic flying. The Trap of the "Instagram Elite": A critique of how modern movement practices prioritize extreme, high-risk acrobatics over beginner-friendly, deeply inclusive community spaces. The Equalizing Force of Movement: How physical touch and play collapse socio-economic, linguistic, and cultural barriers, transforming diverse populations into a unified ecosystem. The Architecture of The Body Party: Unveiling the structural metrics of a 24-to-48-hour technology-free sanctuary featuring 97°F aquatic bodywork (Watsu), live ambient soundscapes, and five-star organic nourishment. The Somatic Storage of Trauma: Examining real-world case studies of deep-seated physical adjustments releasing decades of emotional residue, childhood injury, and psychological armor. Desire to Receive for the Sake of Sharing: A Kabbalistic structural exploration of generating abundance, curated skill sets, and material wealth for the explicit purpose of standardizing a global gifting economy. Key Takeaways Giving is Proof of Having: Generosity isn't restricted to material abundance; offering a presence of kindness, a specialized touch, or emotional sanctuary somatic validation serves as absolute confirmation of your internal wealth. Permanent Identity-Level Change: Lasting somatic transformation does not rely on transient peak experiences or aesthetic external rebranding, but on the quiet expansion of the internal comfort zone. Respecting the Sovereign "No": High-level relationship mastery is built upon immediate, unargued alignment with your partner's boundaries, honoring their intuitive somatic rejections without negotiation. The Body is a Divine divinatory Tool: The physical frame possesses deep cellular intelligence far exceeding the parameters of the analytical mind.

As both a conservation officer and attorney, Travis breaks down where the doctrine came from, what it actually means, and why protecting wildlife resources requires a balance between private property rights and public trust responsibilities.

Today's podcast is a rare encounter with someone looking to revolutionise the insurance industry from its core. We are at one of those generational moments when a big tech question is right at the top of the board agenda in almost every industry sector in the world. That question is AI. Insurance is no different. As AI moves from the experimentation phase to the delivery phase, insurance businesses are going to be faced with a key dilemma – should they try to run AI as a new tech layer on top of their current core IT systems or should they take the plunge and use the opportunity to install a whole new system that has been designed and built with AI at its heart? Will Ross is the co-Founder and CEO of Federato and he is betting that enough companies will choose the latter path. Will is an AI native with post-graduate degrees from Stanford University and has been building Federato over the past six years. He is also a very special type of entrepreneur. He discovered insurance when working on wildfire models, but he saw an even bigger business opportunity across the core of insurance and co-founded Federato while still working on his Stanford studies. Federato has built substantial scale and has raised $180mn to date, with the latest round of $100mn lead by Goldman Sachs. This is clearly a firm that means business and is intent on taking a permanent seat at the Insurance IT table. Will is charismatic and fun to talk to and is probably the best-placed guest I have had on the show to date to really examine what the successful embedding of AI into insurance underwriting will mean for the sector as a whole. Some of what we discussed was highly reassuring, but some of his insights were surprising and challenging to conventional wisdom. Much of the industry is at a crossroads over the AI revolution and the next steps are going to be key. Senior decision-makers looking for guidance on their next move would be well advised to listen to Will set out his clear vision in this enlightening interview.

You may wonder how your questions, advice, concern, or attempts to stay involved could be interpreted as disrespectful. You love your child and want a close relationship, so being told that your behavior is creating distance can feel deeply painful.In this episode of Coaching Your Family Relationships, Tina explains what adult children may actually mean when they talk about boundaries. She explores the difference between boundaries, preferences, ultimatums, trust issues, and attempts to control another person. She also explains why therapy language can sometimes be used inaccurately while still pointing to a real relationship concern.You will learn how to respond when your adult child says you crossed a boundary without immediately defending yourself, arguing about their wording, or shutting down the conversation. Tina offers practical communication tools to help parents become more curious, listen for the need underneath the accusation, and rebuild trust through consistent changes.This episode is especially important for parents navigating conflict, emotional distance, family estrangement, or difficult communication with an adult son or daughter. Respecting boundaries does not mean agreeing with everything your child says. It means learning how to take their experience seriously while staying grounded in your own values and emotional maturity.In this episode, you'll learn:What boundaries with adult children really are and how they differ from preferences, rules, ultimatums, and control.Why your adult child may experience repeated advice, personal questions, unannounced visits, or comments about their choices as boundary violations.How to manage defensiveness and regulate your nervous system before responding to a painful accusation.What to say when your adult child tells you that they do not feel heard, respected, accepted, or emotionally safe.How small, consistent behavior changes can rebuild trust and strengthen the parent and adult child relationship over time.The goal is not to become a perfect parent or accept every interpretation your adult child offers. The goal is to slow down, become curious, and understand what your child may be trying to communicate about the relationship.A conversation about boundaries does not always mean your adult child is rejecting you. It may be an invitation to create a healthier adult relationship built on mutual respect, clearer communication, emotional safety, and trust.Share this episode with a parent who feels confused or hurt by conversations about boundaries with their adult child.Click Here to download the free guide:5 Steps to Take Before Trying to Repair the Relationship with Your Adult Child Tina Gosney is the Family Conflict Coach.

Understanding the "fear of the Lord" begins with recognizing God's character. Proverbs 8:13 reminds us that reverence for God is not about living in constant terror but about honoring Him so deeply that we reject what He calls evil. As we grow in our relationship with Christ, obedience becomes less about fear of punishment and more about love, trust, and respect for the One who is perfectly holy and perfectly good. This devotion encourages believers to move beyond a distorted view of God as someone waiting for them to fail. Instead, Scripture reveals a Father who calls His children to walk in wisdom, love, and holiness. Genuine reverence for God transforms our hearts, shaping the way we speak, make decisions, and respond to temptation because we desire to reflect His character. Highlights: Reverence for God grows out of knowing His holy and loving character Respecting the Lord leads us to reject pride, evil, and sinful behavior Obedience is rooted in love for Christ, not merely fear of consequences God's desire is to draw His people closer, not push them away through intimidation A healthy view of God inspires joyful faithfulness and spiritual growth Join the Conversation When you hear the phrase "fear the Lord," what comes to mind? How has your understanding of God's character shaped the way you approach Him in worship, obedience, and everyday life?

Full Transcript Below: What it Means to Respect the LordBy Vivian Bricker Bible Reading:“To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech” (Proverbs 8:13). Many of us grew up hearing about the fear of the Lord. As someone who did not grow up in the church, I didn't hear about this until much later. However, I can imagine the anxiety it raised in the hearts of children. The idea of fearing the Lord suggests that we are supposed to be afraid of Him. When we look at the Bible, we don't see Jesus as a scary, fear-mongering God. Instead, we see Him being born into the world as an innocent baby on one silent night (Luke 2:11). Fearing the Lord has bred many problems within preaching as well as theology in general. This is because far too many people take fear to literally mean being afraid—and this is a completely reasonable conclusion to draw. Some translations include footnotes to guide the reader; however, for most of us who are reading the New International Version or the King James Version, the word remains “fear.” When I was in Bible college, a professor went over this exact issue. Anytime the Bible uses the phrase “the fear of the Lord,” it refers to respecting the Lord. My professor said a more accurate understanding of these passages would be “the respect of the Lord.” To respect Him is to love Him. While many people will continue to preach the message of fear, we must remember that fear doesn't last… love does. If someone places faith in Jesus and follows Him out of fear, their faith will not stand. They will only be obeying Him because they fear Him. With time, their obedience will waver because they won't be afraid of Him anymore. However, if a person loves God and respects Him out of this love, their conversion will be true. Their obedience to Him will also show up in their daily life because they are walking in true love and respect for the Lord. They won't fear the Lord because they know Jesus is not “out to get them” or waiting for them to fall. Far too many believers think this is how God works, but it is not true. God is not a mean God who tries to get you to mess up. The person who does this is the devil. God is the one who is standing by your side, supporting you, encouraging you, and lifting you up (Romans 8:31). Intersecting Faith & Life: The Bible says, “To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech” (Proverbs 8:13). Once again, rather than understanding this passage as “To fear the Lord,” we are to know it means “To respect the Lord.” Therefore, to respect the Lord is to hate evil. The Lord hates evil, pride, arrogance, and perverse speech. Those who adhere to these practices will be brought to judgment. Those who continue down this wicked road, ignore God's wisdom, and fail to seek it will pay the due penalties. Folly and wickedness will lead to falling, separation from God, and an eternity of pain. As Christ followers, we should have the highest respect for God. Respecting Him means we don't take part in evil or wicked schemes. Instead, we will obey Him. Jesus tells us, “If you love me, keep my commands” (John 14:15). The Lord’s teachings are nourishment to our bones and will fill our hearts with extraordinary joy. If the fear of the Lord has brought you away from God, allow this new understanding to give you renewed hope. God doesn't want you to fear Him. Rather, He wants you to love Him and to respect Him. By doing this, you will follow Him all your days, continue to grow in Him, and help others to know about Him. Did you hear about the fear of the Lord growing up? Did it affect you negatively? How might you start learning what it means to respect the Lord rather than to fear Him?

We are diving back into one of my favorite topics—values—but from a perspective that is as refreshing as it is necessary for the current state of our industry. I'm thrilled to welcome Marc Robertz-Schwartz, founder of Red Apples Media and author of The Red Apples Way, for a deep dive into the foundational DNA of leadership. We explore the "CHRO paradox," addressing the critical gap between the stated values on a company's wall and the lived reality of the people in the seats. Marc shares his powerful "Red Apples" framework, starting with the unexpected anchor of "respecting the universe," and explains why surrender is often a leader's most effective tool. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone navigating the high-stakes intersection of technology and human systems. We break down Marc's five-step diagnostic for organizational health and discuss the "black flags" that signal when a company's culture is out of alignment. Whether you are leading a massive restructuring or trying to supercharge your team's engagement, Marc's insights on authenticity, accountability, and the "human behind the automation" offer a clear roadmap for building an organization that doesn't just survive, but truly thrives.
