Rethinking Traditional Horsemanship and Finding a Kinder Way Forward Description In this episode of Ride On with Julie Goodnight, we take a deep dive into what non-confrontational handling looks like with horses. I'll share how guidance differs from micromanagement, and how trust, consistency, and clarity create willing partners—not resentful ones. I'll start with some seasonal updates from the ranch, then share a powerful story about a mare named Truth Takes Time, who showed me just how far quiet leadership can go. Finally, we'll wrap up with listener questions on managing ulcers, working through disagreements with your trainer, and a question about one of the important tenets of Classical Horsemanship.

In this episode of the Note Closer Show, host Scott Carson sits down with real estate veteran Felipe Soares to dissect the realities of the 2026 fix-and-flip market. With over 18 years of experience and more than 400 rehabs under his belt, Soares provides a masterclass in transitioning from wholesaling to high-volume rehabbing without using your own capital.The Anatomy of a Successful FlipSoares emphasizes that while the business is simple, it is far from easy. He argues that the biggest mistake investors make is failing to truly dial in their After Repair Value (ARV). In a market where values can fluctuate by 10% or more, Soares suggests that if you cannot accurately predict the ARV, you shouldn't touch the deal. He also stresses the importance of the 78% rule; paying more than 78 cents on the dollar (including repairs and holding costs) often leads to negative returns for short-term projects.Efficiency is the name of the game in 2026. Soares reveals his "rule of thumb" for timelines: every $10,000 in scope requires two weeks of work. To maintain this pace, he operates his own licensed construction umbrella, managing four dedicated general contracting crews that work exclusively for him. By purchasing materials directly and leveraging "Pro" relationships at major retailers, he maximizes margins while earning millions of travel points to fund a first-class lifestyle.Key Topics Covered:The Power of Persistence: Soares shared how it took him 18 months to close his first $3,000 wholesale deal, proving that "putting in the reps" is the only way to reach $60 million in transactional volume.Precision Underwriting: Why the ARV is the ultimate "deal killer" and why investors must account for the 90-day FHA anti-flip seasoning rule when projecting exit timelines.Leveraging Technology: The use of AI tools like CubiCasa for instant floor plans and Richer Values for AI-driven appraisal data even in non-disclosure states like Texas.Relationship-Based Contracting: Why treating contractors "like family" and keeping them busy year-round is better than always chasing the lowest bid.High-Impact Aesthetics: Focusing budget on "Say Yes to the Dress" moments—specifically kitchens and master suites—using quartz counters, heated floors, and strategic lighting to trigger emotional buys.Felipe Soares' journey from an underage investor trying to sneak into networking events to a "Stud Muffin-aire" educator proves that success in real estate isn't about luck—it's about systems. By combining conservative underwriting with modern AI tools and a "boots on the ground" approach to project management, investors can navigate even the toughest market cycles. As Scott Carson notes, the only way to reach the top is to take these tactics and move into action.Watch the Original VIDEO HERE!Here is a list of websites and tools mentioned in this episode:CubiCasa: A free mobile app used to scan a house and generate a blueprint with actual measurements, CAD upgrades, and floor plans within minutes.Richer Values: An AI-powered tool that provides accurate After Repair Value (ARV) data and appraisal-level documentation, even in non-disclosure states like Texas.Real.Vision: A professional photography service used for high-end property marketing, providing interactive virtual tours, drone shots, and dedicated property mini-sites.Home Depot Pro & Managed Elite Account: Felipe leverages high-level "Pro" relationships and the "ProDesk" to get bulk discounts, special pricing on paint, and managed deliveries.Floor & Decor Pro: Used for interior design coordination and logistical management of flooring materials across multiple stores.REOLink: An LTE-based security camera system that runs on SIM cards and battery power, allowing for remote monitoring of job sites without Wi-Fi.Book a Call With Scott HERE!Sign up for the next FREE One-Day Note Class HERE!Sign up for the WCN Membership HERE!Sign up for the next Note Buying For Dummies Workshop HERE!
In this episode, I'm sharing my personal facelift experience and the thoughtful process behind my decision. From choosing the right surgeon and technique to deciding between an endoscopic and deep plane facelift, I open up about what I prioritized—refinement, not reinvention. I also discuss recovery, maintenance, additional treatments like CO2 laser and lipo, and why cosmetic procedures are never truly "one and done." This is an honest conversation about how to find what's truly right for you and how to make the best decisions that align with your season of life.

To that end, we specifically focused upon the fertility awareness and the Peak Day app, a Catholic fertility and period tracking application.

Back when I was losing my house, bleeding money, and overwhelmed with too many strategies, I hit a breaking point. I had to stop trying to do everything and start getting laser focused. That's when everything changed for me.This episode is all about five things I used to say yes to but now firmly say no to. These shifts didn't just buy back my time… they made me more money. If you're stuck in five-dollar-an-hour tasks, chasing every shiny new object, or jumping on every meeting and project that comes your way, I get it. I was there. But learning to say no gave me the focus to build a business that works for me instead of the other way around.This isn't about doing more. It's about doing what matters. If you want more time, more money, and more freedom, it starts by cutting the noise.What's Inside: —The real cost of saying yes to five-dollar-an-hour tasks—How shiny object syndrome kills momentum and profits—Why fewer meetings and tighter focus multiply your results

Every investor eventually encounters a deal that doesn't go as planned. In this episode, we break down “The Anatomy of an Unfortunate Investment” and explore why most bad outcomes aren't caused by bad assets, but by poor preparation, misaligned capital, and the wrong partners.We discuss why a great deal only works when it's matched with the right investor, the right risk profile, and the right structure. From understanding deal control and capitalization to assessing market dynamics and regulatory risk, we walk through the questions sophisticated capital actually asks.We also dive deep into partnerships—how incentives shift, why complementary skill sets matter, and how integrity and grit are revealed under pressure. Along the way, we share hard-earned lessons about mentorship, learning through experience, and why ego often gets in the way of better decisions.The takeaway is simple: fortunate investments start with clarity, humility, and the courage to slow down before saying yes.We talk about:[00:00] What Makes an Investment “Unfortunate” in the First Place?[01:57] Is a Great Deal Really Enough to Attract Capital?[04:23] Who Is a Deal Actually Great For?[06:46] How Do Sophisticated Investors Really Think About Risk?[9:50] Is Experience More Valuable Than Immediate Profit?[18:54] What Do Investors Actually Need to Say Yes to a Deal?[26:13] How Do Funds Decide Which Deals Make the Cut?[30:20] Where Should New Investors Go to Find Capital?[34:0] How Do Bad Partnerships Turn Good Deals Into Disasters?[42:53]How Do You Stay on the Fortunate Side of Investing?Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

When the ground beneath our feet feels unstable, how do we stay true to ourselves while adapting to a world that keeps shifting? Many of us know what it's like to recognize that the practices that once grounded us no longer feel sufficient—or worse, they deliver us back into shame and uncertainty. This sermon explores an obscure biblical community called the Rechabites, who mastered what we desperately need today: staying rooted in core values while improvising new responses to new challenges. Using insights from Martin Luther King Jr. and contemporary writer Kaveh Akbar, we examine why it's not enough to simply avoid doing harm—and what it actually looks like to move from endless abstinence to actively showing up for ourselves, our neighbors, and the world. If you're exhausted from trying to do everything right while still wondering if you're making any real difference, this conversation offers a different framework: what if falling back in love with what matters most is actually the key to sustainable change?
In this episode of Say Yes to the Mess Jami flies solo as she recaps The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Reunion and the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She weighs in on the Amanda Frances v. Dorit Kemsley spat at Rachel Zoe's dinner party, and who she thinks was more in the wrong. Did Amanda weaponize a personal tragedy to shut down the conversation, or was Dorit's response cold and lacking empathy? Jami gives her take and runs through her favorite moments of the RHOSLC reunion. She says who the biggest flop was as well as her reunion VIP, and doesn't hold back on all the reasons this was the absolute worst season and reunion for two particular SLC Housewives. And of course, Jami dishes on the latest hirings and firings on the RHOC and gives her two-cents on Bravo's decisions for season 20 casting. Follow Jami @JamiOnAir on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.

So much of our anxiety, exhaustion, and restlessness isn't coming from bad choices—but from unexamined ones.Our calendars quietly shape our formation.

On this special Say Yes Sunday, we reflect on what it means to live a life that leaves a lasting legacy and to respond faithfully when God calls us. Rooted in 1 Peter 4:7–11, this message reminds us that every believer has been gifted by God and called to steward those gifts in love, service, and faithfulness—for His glory and the good of others. We celebrate the countless ways people at Harvest Church have said “yes” to serving, giving, praying, and loving others, and share important news about an upcoming leadership transition at Harvest Church. In this message, you'll hear about: • The power of saying “yes” to God's calling—at any stage of life • A heartfelt celebration of the many volunteers and servants at Harvest Church • An important announcement regarding the upcoming transition of Lead Pastor leadership: After 23 years of service, our Pastor Steve(Lead Pastor) shares how God is calling him into a new assignment, continuing to serve Harvest Church as Pastor Emeritus while also supporting pastors in the U.S. and abroad through Poimen Ministries. With the unanimous support of the elders, Curtis will step into the role of Lead Pastor as part of a thoughtful, prayerful transition. This transition will happen slowly over the next 9-10 months. When the transition of leadership is complete, it will be formalized on a Sunday morning with ceremony and celebration. Following the “passing of the baton”, Steve will, upon recommendation from trusted mentors, take a leave of absence for three months so that Pastor Curtis can begin to lead. We invite you to pray with us, celebrate God's work among us, and consider where He may be calling you to say yes and step into service. Thank you for being part of the Harvest Church family.

If your business feels like it's working but still harder than it should, the problem may not be your marketing. It may be that your client journey is unfinished. In this final episode of the Client Journey series, Lori Lyons walks through a real client case study to show how even successful businesses quietly leak revenue, confidence, and energy when clients finish and disappear. You'll meet Deb, a highly experienced health coach earning solid income but constantly feeling like she had to start over. By breaking down each stage of Deb's client journey, from discovery through referral, Lori reveals where retention breaks down and how small, intentional shifts can stabilize revenue without adding more work. This episode is about clarity, not hustle. You'll learn why retention matters more than reach, how to design a journey that naturally leads clients forward, and how a finished client journey creates steadier growth and more freedom for midlife business owners. What You'll Learn Retention matters more than reach. A finished client journey stabilizes revenue faster than more visibility ever will. Results without context feel final. Clients continue when they understand the next phase before the current one ends. Most businesses aren't broken. They're unfinished. Fixing the journey is often simpler than adding more marketing.

Over twelve episodes, we're unpacking mindset + strategy shifts shaping the future of fundraising, leadership, and doing good in 2026. Explore the series at weareforgood.com/12shifts.Shift 7 / Volunteers as Core CapacityIn today's episode, Jon and Becky welcome back Jennifer Sirangelo, President & CEO of Points of Light — the world's largest organization dedicated to volunteer service, mobilizing nearly 4 million volunteers across 32 countries.Together, they explore why many nonprofit leaders are leaving capacity on the table — and how shifting from “volunteers as a nice-to-have” to “volunteers as core infrastructure” can accelerate strategy, deepen belonging, and drive sustainable growth. Jennifer shares practical examples (including a “board recruitment sprint”), how to spot the gaps volunteers can fill beyond program delivery, and why the volunteer experience must be digitally enabled to fit real life. You'll also hear why the simplest lever still matters: people volunteer because they're asked — and that invitation is fully in your control.If you're ready to treat participation like a strategy (not an afterthought) and build a volunteer engine for 2026, this one's for you.Episode Highlights:Volunteers as Strategic Plan Accelerators (3:10)The “Board Recruitment Sprint” + Activating Volunteer Leaders (9:20)What's Driving a Rise in Volunteer Interest + How to Respond (15:40)Building Volunteer Infrastructure on a Lean Team (22:30)Designing a Digitally-Enabled Volunteer Experience (30:10)One Good Thing: Craft the Invitation That Gets People to Say Yes (37:45)Dive Deeper: pointsoflight.org - Sign up for Points of Light's monthly newsletter, packed with resources, trainings, and webinars.Episode Shownotes: www.weareforgood.com/episode/677Save your free seat at the We Are For Good Summit
For a long time, being in rooms (masterminds, events, paid groups) were incredibly valuable for me. That's where relationships were built, perspective expanded, and a lot of growth came from. But lately, I've been wrestling with whether that value still outweighs the cost—time, energy, relationships, broken routines, stepping away from the business, and more. And I know I'm not the only entrepreneur who struggles with this. That's why I'm sharing this unreleased, behind-the-scenes footage from my interview with Stu McLaren. In it, Stu explains the exact rules he's put in place to keep himself from being pulled in a hundred different directions when everything looks like a good opportunity. For him, this was critical, because without those rules, he knew he'd end up making WAY more money as an entrepreneur, but only at the cost of his family. This conversation completely reframed how I decide what to say yes to. And I think it'll resonate if you're wrestling with the same thing. Enjoy!

In today's episode, I sit down with IFBB Pro Sandy Arave, a 55-year-old high school counselor whose path to bodybuilding success is anything but conventional. Sandy began competing in 2022 and earned her Pro card at North Americans in 2024. In 2025, she made her Pro debut and went on to win two Pro shows in the 55+ categories. Before bodybuilding, Sandy lived a very different competitive life as a barrel racer, competing at professional rodeos. Her journey into the sport came alongside navigating grief, health challenges, and major life transitions. This conversation is an honest look at resilience, purpose, and why chasing growth matters more than chasing a card.
