Hey, Family Brand community! Have you ever had one of those moments where nothing is necessarily wrong... but something just feels off? That's exactly where we found ourselves not too long ago. On the surface, life was full of good things—work, activities, commitments, opportunities—but somehow we looked around and realized we didn't actually have much time left to simply be a family. That realization eventually led us to create one of our favorite Family Brand exercises: Take Back Your Family's Time. The truth is, your calendar will always fill itself if you let it. We learned that the hard way. We had said yes to so many good opportunities that there wasn't much room left for the best things—the conversations around the dinner table, family traditions, slow evenings together, or simply doing the things we genuinely love as a family. Sometimes the problem isn't that we're filling our lives with bad things. It's that we're filling them with so many good things that there's no space left for what matters most. One of the first things we did was ask a simple question: "Our family works when..." We started making a list of the moments when we feel the most connected. Maybe it's eating meals together, camping, turning off devices in the evenings, going to church, reading together, or having a nightly family check-in. Every family will have different answers, but identifying those rhythms gave us clarity about what we wanted to protect. From there, we took an honest look at where our time was actually going. It wasn't always easy, but it gave us permission to say "no" to some things so we could say a much bigger "yes" to our family. As another busy season approaches, this is the perfect time to pause and do your own family time audit. Involve your kids in the conversation—they often have incredible insight into what makes them feel most connected. You might be surprised by what they remember and what they value. The goal isn't to create a perfect schedule. It's to intentionally create a life where your family has room to thrive instead of simply trying to keep up. Hit play to hear the full conversation! In this episode, we walk through the entire Take Back Your Family's Time framework, the questions we ask ourselves every year, and the practical exercise you can use with your own family this week. P.S. We're here to help you build your own Family Brand, one episode at a time. So go ahead, hit play, and let's grow together!

Are you a senior corporate executive or high-performing leader sitting on immense professional capital, yet wondering how to safely translate your day-to-day corporate discipline into personal cash-flowing assets? In this dynamic guest conversation, host Billy Keels sits down with Will Holdren—the founder of Aureate Properties LLC, host of the Will Power Podcast, and an elite professional operating within a high-net-worth family office. Will pulls back the curtain on his rapid career trajectory, sharing how he launched a podcast as a junior in high school to interview over 250 successful individuals, ultimately bypassing standard resume templates to secure a highly sophisticated corporate role. Discover how Will structures his 168 hours to cleanly isolate his 9-to-5 client execution from his 5-to-9 real estate projects, how he navigates multi-entity liability structures to decrease tax exposure, and why practicing the power of saying "no" to superficial distractions is the ultimate baseline for long-term career optionality.

Each day offers new examples of America's pell-mell rush to join Western European nations in surrendering to Islam's stealthy conquest: Democratic primaries across the country are nominating sharia-supremacists or Marxist-jihadists like Zohran Mamdani, largely thanks to Muslim bloc-voting. Churches that are not mysteriously catching fire are being bought and transformed into mosques. Farms and other properties are turning into Muslim-only communities – and, predictably, future no-go zones – like the notorious EPIC City in Texas. Now, Democratic legislators in Massachusetts want to establish a permanent “Government Islam Commission” to promote Muslims for state jobs and otherwise advance their sharia-adherent agenda. Unsurprisingly, such serial accommodations are emboldening the jihadists here, causing them to espouse ever more openly America's submission to sharia. It's high time we say “No.” BanSharia.com. This is Frank Gaffney.

Her Story, God's Story - The Courage to Say No Rev. Erik Khoobyarian Rev. Erik KhoobyarianScripture: Exodus 1:8-21
Hearing 'no' is, often, one of the hardest things to hear in life. Especially when we so desperately want to hear God say 'yes'! But, the no's do come - so how do we deal with that? What should we remember when God tells us 'no' and how should we find thankfulness in the no's of life? That's what this week's episode is all about...

SummaryHave you ever felt like losing weight means saying no to everything you enjoy?Maybe you avoid social events, spend all week waiting for a cheat meal, or feel like one meal can ruin all your progress. You may be able to follow a strict plan for a few days or weeks, but it starts to fall apart as soon as life gets busy.In this episode, Chase and Chris explain why you should not have to put your entire life on hold to lose weight.The problem may not be that you need more discipline. Your plan may simply not fit your real life.Chase and Chris talk about the difference between following a temporary diet and building a lifestyle you can maintain. A diet often gives you strict rules to follow. A lifestyle helps you learn how to make choices during busy weeks, weekends, vacations, stressful days, and social events.That does not mean you never have to make sacrifices. You may need to drink less at some events, choose a different meal, skip an appetizer, plan ahead, or say no sometimes. But you should not feel like you have to be perfect or avoid everything you enjoy.They also explain why your sleep, stress, schedule, boundaries, routines, and relationships can affect your progress just as much as your food and workouts.The goal is not to get better at suffering through another diet. The goal is to create healthy habits that feel like a normal part of your life.Want to join us for the All or Nothing Masterclass on Monday July 20th, 2026 at 8pm?

Most fabricators think every lead deserves a quote. I don't. In this episode, I share why learning to say "no" to the wrong jobs can reduce stress, improve close rates, and create a healthier business. In this episode: The story from a Cosentino event in San Francisco that changed the way I think about qualifying customers. Why it's okay to walk away from prospects who aren't a good fit. The importance of requiring an in-home or showroom presentation. How to identify customers who are fixated on price or square-foot pricing. A respectful way to refer those jobs to another fabricator. The one exception: when slower seasons justify a different approach. Next Episode: We'll walk through the sales presentation itself—how to educate customers, communicate your process, explain why you charge more, and demonstrate the value that separates you from the competition.

In this special episode of the podcast, Henry discusses the recent outcome of negotiations between the Australian Education Union (AEU) Victorian Branch and the Victorian Government. While both parties reached an in-principle Victorian Government Schools Agreement (VGSA) covering teachers, principals and education support (ES) staff, AEU members overwhelmingly voted to reject the proposed deal.The episode also features the audio of Henry's interview on Channel 9's Today program, where he speaks with Michael Atkinson about the rejected agreement, the concerns expressed by union members and the broader significance of the vote for Victoria's education sector.Audio Production by Rob Kelly
In this episode, Dennis sits down with Brock, a civilian critical care flight paramedic who flies Medevac in the States, to break down what it actually takes to move a sick patient from point A to point B — and why drone evacuations are nowhere near as simple as the headlines suggest.They cover the real decision matrix behind scene calls versus interfacility transports, why time-sensitive patients (STEMI, stroke, major trauma) get priority, and the constant safety calculus of weather, maintenance, and crew fatigue. Brock reveals the shocking frequency of “stable” hospital patients who decompensate the moment transport begins — and why the dynamic environment of movement, vibration, and altitude changes everything.They also tackle the hard questions around drone evac: What kind of patient is actually stable enough to fly without a provider? What technology gaps (remote vent/pump titration, redundant IV access, real-time monitoring) must be solved before drones can handle true critical care? And why drone resupply might be the capability we should be training on right now.If you're a medic, planner, or leader betting on unmanned systems to solve evacuation problems in austere or contested environments, this conversation is your reality check.Key Takeaways:Scene crews decide destination based on capability; interfacility decisions are physician-driven.Over-triage happens — CCT assets sometimes get used for patients who could go ground.The “3 to go, 1 to say no” rule keeps aircraft missions safe (weather, maintenance, fatigue).Patients stable in the static hospital environment frequently decompensate once transport starts.True ICU-level patients on vents and drips currently require human titration that drones can't provide.Drone resupply is already viable and should be trained aggressively now.Realistic logistics training prevents dangerous “training scars” in younger medics.Chapters00:00 – Welcome & Why Drone Evacs Are the New Hotness (But Not That Simple)00:27 – Guest Intro: Brock, Civilian Critical Care Flight Paramedic01:59 – Scene Calls vs Interfacility Transports: Who Actually Decides?03:45 – Over-Triage Problem: Using CCT Assets on Patients Who Could Go Ground04:46 – Key Decision Factors: Time-Sensitive Patients (STEMI, Stroke, Trauma, Burns)06:56 – Aircraft Safety Culture: Weather, Maintenance Packages & Crew Fatigue (“3 to Go, 1 to Say No”)09:31 – Ground Critical Care Trucks as Backup When Weather Grounds Flights11:12 – Drone Evacs: What Kind of Patient Is Stable Enough for Unmanned Transport?13:32 – The Core Problem: Static Hospital vs Dynamic Transport Environment15:57 – Why Patients Decompensate in Transport (Real Examples from the Street)18:48 – What Drone Critical Care Would Actually Require (Remote Titration, Redundancy, Monitoring)21:44 – When It's Safer to Leave the Patient Where They Are22:48 – Drone Resupply: Already Working and Why We Need to Train It Now27:03 – Logistics Nightmares in Critical Care Transport28:50 – Training Scars: Why Realistic Logistics Training Matters for Medics29:58 – Closing Thoughts & Where to Find More PFC ContentFor more content, go to www.prolongedfieldcare.orgConsider supporting us: patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective or www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care

Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself!In this episode, Wendy sits down with Angela Burk, author of The Real Girl's Guide to Midlife. Angela spent decades saying yes to everything—yes to things she didn't want to do, yes to explanations and justifications, yes to everyone else's needs before her own. Then she hit a wall. Not one explosive moment, but a gradual awareness that she'd lost parts of herself in the process of trying to be everything to everyone. So she started saying no. And her life changed.They explore:How saying no is actually saying yes to yourself, and why "no" is a complete sentence that needs no explanationBreaking patterns rooted in decades of modeled behaviors and old stories about who you're supposed to beThe simple power of speaking your truth out loud: even saying it to yourself in an empty room interrupts a thought pattern and shifts your entire trajectoryAngela's philosophy centers on one core truth: you are not broken; you've just been operating from old blueprints. Midlife is an invitation to get real about what's working and what isn't. Rest isn't weakness. Boundaries aren't selfish. Your voice matters. And the messy middle part—the part nobody talks about—is where the actual transformation happens.Connect with Angela:Get her book, Real Girls Guide to Midlife: Hot Takes, True Stories, and Fearless Advice from Women Who've Lived It & Experts Who Get It: amazon.com/Real-Girls-Guide-Midlife-Fearless/dp/1959009338?tag=syty-20realgirlsguidetomidlife.comInstagram: instagram.com/realgirlsguide55/Referenced in this Episode:Episode 281: Aging Gracefully Vs.

Today's episode is a short excerpt from a previous conversation I had with one of our amazing Paper Camp students.I really love using this podcast to spotlight the incredible things that our students are doing because there is so much value in hearing how other product brands are navigating wholesale in real time. These episodes are also a great reminder that there is no singular path to success when it comes to selling wholesale. You get to decide what works best for you and your brand. Today you're getting an inside look at how one brand does things which will surely spark ideas for you.

Send me a Text Message!Psalm 51 is all about sin. Well not just sin. It's all about sin and the overflowing, relentlessly overwhelming love of God. Here's the deal, no one sins out of duty. We sin when we believe that God cannot satisfy my heart. There was a time in David's life where God was the all-satisfying pursuit of his heart. This writer of psalms. This warrior-poet-King with a huge appetite for life. This passionate worshipper of God. There was a time in his life where he had lost everything that we would consider necessary for the good life. He was living in caves on the run from a King who wanted to kill him. Lost his family. Lost his home. Lost his freedom. But when you read the Psalms, you realize that when David had nothing, he realized God was his everything. God was his life. But then when he experienced success, he went from "God is my life" to "my life is good." Here's the deal, the point of Psalm 51 is not just that we would say no to sin. The point of Psalm 51 is that we gain the life that comes from saying yes to God!

Filling in for Boomer & Gio on a wild pre-July 4th show, Jerry and Gordon kick things off by tackling the reigning champion Knicks freezing out a 41-year-old LeBron James, Jaylen Brown's Twitch meltdown over being shipped to Philly, Uruguay's stranded World Cup squad, and Taylor Swift's upcoming 10-hour MSG "wedding" spectacle. The holiday chaos rolls on as Gordon brands soccer a "terrible first draft," the Yankees bleed without Aaron Judge, and Steve Cohen nukes the Mets' clubhouse, all unfolding alongside a Metallica vs. Beach Boys debate, a sneaky prank caller, Jerry's US history quiz, and C-Lo's headlines. Finally, MLB Network's Robert Flores confirms a explosive Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor feud that puts David Stearns on the ultimate hot seat, capping off a chaotic broadcast where Gordon begs for elite Twitter status and furious callers reject aging superstars to declare New York Jalen Brunson's town.
Send us Fan MailWhy does saying "no" to your kids feel so much harder than it should?You know boundaries are important.You know your kids need them.So why do you keep:explaining one more time,giving one more chance,feeling guilty every time they get upset,and end up exploding anyway?For years, I thought I had a boundary problem.I didn't.I had a nervous system that had learned, long before I became a mom, that standing up for myself wasn't safe. And that the only effective boundary is punishment - which I hated as a child, and did not want to repeat as a mother.In this episode, I share one small memory from my own childhood that completely changed how I understand:people-pleasingguilthealthy boundariesand why so many loving mums struggle to say "no."If you've ever thought:"Why do I feel like such a bad mom every time I set a boundary?"...this episode is for you.In this episode you'll learn:✔ Why boundaries feel so uncomfortable for many moms✔ Where people-pleasing really comes from✔ Why parenting advice alone isn't enough✔ Why anger isn't the problem, but a signal✔ How your childhood still influences your parenting today✔ The missing step before gentle parenting techniques actually work
Last week we talked about one of the biggest mindset shifts around boundaries: "I don't want to" is a perfectly good reason to say no. But that leaves a very practical question...How do you actually say no without feeling like a jerk?In this episode, I'm sharing the surprisingly simple formula for saying no with confidence, without apologizing, overexplaining, making excuses, or accidentally inviting people to argue with you. We'll talk about:Why a short, direct no is often the kindest responseWhat to do when someone won't accept your answerWhy letting other people have their feelings is one of the greatest gifts you can give them. If saying no makes your stomach flip, this episode will help you protect your time and energy without carrying around a suitcase full of guilt.SARAH'S INSTAGRAMCoach With SarahSarah offers a 6-month nervous system coaching program for humans who are neurodivergent, sensitive, and highly creative.

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/ins.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM731_FINAL.mp3 The survival set point is the pattern that has you saying yes when every part of you wants to say no — and it runs on a single, underlying emotion: desperation. In this episode, Steph Tuss and I get into why this set point is so pervasive among entrepreneurs, where it comes from, and what it’s quietly costing you in your health, your business, and your relationships. This is Part 3 of the Financial Setpoint Series. If you’re new to the series, Episode 729 introduces the full framework and includes access to the free Psychological Set Point Analyzer at lifeisnowinc.com/setpoint. Episode 730 covers the scarcity set point. Start there if you want the full picture. Survival Set Point: The Three Places It Shows Up in BusinessThe survival set point shows up most visibly in three areas. The first is client selection. When you’re operating from survival mode, the fear of having nothing is louder than your judgment about whether someone is a good fit. You take the client who gives you bad energy in the discovery call. You work with the team member you know is underperforming because the thought of not finding someone better feels too risky. The underlying belief is the same in both cases: if I say no to this, there might not be anything else. The second is scope creep. When a client pushes a deadline, asks for extra deliverables, or slips requests in outside the original agreement, you feel it in your body first — that tightening, that discomfort. But then your mind goes to work justifying it. They’re a good client. I don’t want them to be upset. I’ll just do it this once. And you cave. Every time. That’s not a communication problem. That’s a survival set point telling you that holding a boundary means losing something you can’t afford to lose. The third is the slow-period panic. When business slows down, the survival set point amplifies into something closer to crisis mode. Desperation and panic run together, and when you’re in panic, you lose the ability to think clearly. You slash prices and pivot to things you don’t actually want to do. You make reactive decisions that feel urgent but aren’t strategic — and the first thing you sacrifice is the clear thinking that would actually solve the problem. Survival Set Point: Where It Starts and Why Entrepreneurs Are Especially VulnerableMost of the business owners Steph and I have worked with over the past 35 years grew up in some form of a chaotic household. That’s not a coincidence. When your sense of safety as a child depended on reading the room, managing unpredictable people, or simply taking care of yourself, your nervous system learns to operate in survival mode as its default. The problem is that when you become an adult and start a business, your subconscious doesn’t automatically update. It keeps running the same programming — except now the stakes feel like payroll and client relationships instead of childhood survival. One of the things Steph pointed out in this conversation is that the survival set point is also a control set point. People who grew up in chaos learned to cope by controlling whatever they could. In business, that shows up as micromanaging your team when money gets tight, over-involvement in every decision, and an inability to delegate — not because you don’t trust your people, but because releasing control feels genuinely dangerous. The cost shows up in your team’s performance, in your health, and eventually in the sustainability of the business itself. The Cost — and the Path OutThe survival set point is one of the most physically taxing of the four types. The constant state of low-grade anxiety, dysregulated cortisol, and fear-based decision-making takes a real toll. Steph and I both see it in clients who are struggling with persistent health issues — fatigue, disrupted sleep, and the kind of chronic stress that accumulates when you never feel safe. The financial cost is equally real. Surviving month to month, using lines of credit to relieve pressure rather than to invest, and making decisions from fear rather than strategy — none of these move the business forward. They just buy another month. The way out is awareness first, then reprogramming. The Psychological Set Point Analyzer at lifeisnowinc.com/setpoint will tell you whether survival is your primary pattern, along with a seven-day plan to start shifting it. Steph and I are also hosting the Elite Mind Intensive on August 18th and 19th — two days focused specifically on set point work at a deeper level. Details are in the show notes. Episode 542 – Reverse Engineer Your Vision Episode 470 – Be Grateful for the Opportunity to Work Episode 129 – What’s the Difference Between a True Desire, a Want, Lust, or a Fear-Based Need? YOU'VE LEARNED THE STRATEGIES… SO WHY DOES YOUR REVENUE STILL CONTINUE TO PLATEAU?Here’s what I know about most business owners: They’re working hard, doing the right things, and still hitting the same income ceiling year after year. That ceiling has a name — it’s your Financial Set Point. It’s the unconscious limit you’ve placed on what you believe you can earn, and until you see it clearly, it runs the show no matter what strategies you put in place.That’s what we work on at my upcoming Business Intensive in August. Over two days, I'll help you identify your financial set point, understand why it’s there, and break through it so you can finally earn what you want without the constant struggle and hustle that’s been getting you nowhere.If that sounds like exactly what’s been missing, you don’t want to sit this one out.

In this episode of Here I Am, Shai sits down with Nate Shalev, co-founder of Shalom Dykes, an organization creating safe, inclusive, and joyful spaces for Jewish LGBTQ dykes. Nate shares their decade-long journey organizing with the NYC Dyke March, a community that once championed inclusion for all, and how everything shifted after October 7th when conversations about Israel within the march's leadership broke down, anti-Zionism was embedded into the organization's values, and Jewish members were effectively pushed out.Rather than counter-protesting, Nate channeled that loss into building something new. Shalom Dykes launched with no idea who would show up, only to draw hundreds, then 600, then 2,500 signatures on an open letter. Nate reflects on what it means to need your community's safe spaces while being told you no longer belong in them, the painful double life of watching a wife check hostage lists each morning while colleagues with no personal connection to the conflict demanded performative statements, and why building joyful, visible Jewish queer community is itself an act of resistance and hope.Guest: Nate Shalev, Co-founder of Shalom DykesConsider DONATING to help us continue and expand our media efforts.

The Republican Party is not just ineffective. It has become an obstacle to us on key issues. Sadly, thanks to Trump's "leave no RINO behind" endorsement policy, it is getting even worse. Today, I go through Trump's recent endorsements and show how they are worse than supporting Democrats, although they will ensure that Democrats win anyway. Therefore, at some point we have nothing left to lose by actually refusing to support garbage Republicans in a general election. I dive deep into the negative efficacy of voting for the establishment, the growing bipartisan pushback against wind, solar, and data center monopolies, and the shocking arrest of a peaceful protester in Dixon, Illinois, over a Facebook post.
