Podcasts about Scarcity

George made his first million as an entrepreneur and spent it.He grew up in feast or famine. Swore he would do the opposite. Then recreated the exact same pattern with more zeros, bigger crashes, and equal chaos.The money story he inherited was running his business without his permission for 20 years. He didn't know it had a name until he sat down with Ryan Lee.This episode is the implementation guide.This is a direct follow-up to Episode 734 with Ryan D. Lee. George breaks down the three-part path from Ryan's conversation into a clear, executable framework: rewrite your money story, answer six questions that build a target, and calculate the one number that makes it all measurable. In that order. For a reason.What You'll Learn In This Episode:The two economies and which one is running you right nowHow to identify the money story you inherited and where it shows up in your businessSix questions that move you from scarcity to abundance to prosperityWhat a strike number is and how to calculate yoursWhy knowing your floor eliminates the hiding places and the endless chaseHow to apply gain thinking to financial progress so you stop quitting before you get thereKey Takeaways:✔️Show me your last month's bank statement and you will see exactly what you value, whether you meant to or not.✔️The dependency economy has a system running you. The ownership economy means you run the system from the inside out.✔️You do not have a money problem. You have an unowned story, an undefined target, and an invisible number. Fix those in order.✔️You cannot consciously reject a money story and outrun it at the same time. You will recreate the same pattern with bigger numbers.✔️Six questions in two sets: What do I want? Why does it matter? Who must I become? Then: Who am I? Why am I? How do I use my gifts in service of others?✔️Your strike number is not the dream number. It is the floor. The bare minimum monthly number needed to keep the lights on.✔️Once you know your floor, you run out of excuses to keep avoiding yourself and chasing more.✔️Progress is measured from where you started, not against an ideal you have not reached. Twenty percent of the way to your strike number is not failure. It is measurable gain from zero.Timestamps & Highlights:[00:00] — The bank statement test and a confession about the first million[01:18] — The two economies: dependency vs. ownership[06:00] — Part 1: The money story rewrite and how to identify yours[12:00] — Where the inherited story shows up in business decisions[17:00] — Part 2: Six questions that build the target[22:00] — Scarcity to abundance to prosperity, in order[27:00] — Part 3: The strike number explained[30:00] — Why knowing the floor eliminates the hiding places[33:00] — How to apply the gain framework to your strike number[35:00] — The three actions to take this weekYour Challenge This Week:Three things.

Are you buying the card, or are you buying its price history? Jeremy, Chris McGill, David Chase, Joe Poirot and Joshua Adams bring their discussion about the next generation of collectors to its conclusion by asking whether newcomers really need to inherit the collecting preferences previous generations created. Chris remembers a time when sellers couldn't find buyers for a Michael Jordan PMG Red at $10,000. Today, that same card is worth many multiples of that amount. So why couldn't the next generation of collectors do the same thing? Instead of spending enormous amounts chasing the cards previous generations already turned into grails, perhaps new collectors can discover overlooked cards, sets and players, build their own collecting culture and eventually create an entirely new hierarchy. Jeremy boils his advice down to something simple: forge your own path. The panel discusses independent thinking, research, critical analysis and why finding overlooked value doesn't simply mean declaring that an unpopular card should suddenly be valuable. Scarcity, aesthetics, distribution, history, player significance and relative value still matter. They also discuss hobby cycles and why quieter markets may actually encourage collectors to become more creative, explore new areas and discover cards that get ignored when established grails are rapidly appreciating. Then the conversation takes an interesting turn into comps themselves. What happens when a collector is willing to pay MORE for a card if the transaction becomes a publicly recorded comp? Conversely, if you buy a card privately for considerably less than its perceived market value, what incentive do you have to report that sale and potentially establish a lower comp for something you now own? Jeremy and Chris discuss the incentives surrounding private-sale reporting, while the panel considers how collectors can estimate value when a rare card simply doesn't have a recent comparable sale. Plus, Jeremy discovers Frank Robinson in real time and, within minutes of hearing more about his career, is already making offers on cards. Four decades into the hobby and there are still new lanes to discover. Subscribe to Sports Cards Live on YouTube and wherever you listen to podcasts.

Why is one Steph Curry rookie worth $60,000 while another rare rookie-year Curry card can be bought for a tiny fraction of that? Jeremy, Chris McGill, David Chase, Joe Poirot and Joshua Adams continue their discussion about how collectors find value in a hobby where the established grails have become increasingly expensive. Chris puts a real-world example on the screen. Steph Curry's 2009 Topps Chrome rookie, numbered to 999, has become one of his iconic cards and commands an enormous premium in a PSA 10. Meanwhile, Chris finds a 2009 Certified Fabric of the Game Curry, numbered to just 99 and containing memorabilia, available for dramatically less money. So what exactly are collectors paying for? The card itself? Scarcity? Eye appeal? History? Brand recognition? Or decades of hobby consensus telling us which cards we're supposed to want? That leads into a larger conversation about how hobby grails are created, how influential collectors and content creators can shape demand, and whether social media simply reflects collecting trends or actually helps manufacture them. The panel also debates changing perceptions around players including Shaquille O'Neal, Nolan Ryan, Jackie Robinson and Steph Curry. Can established hobby hierarchies change? Can overlooked players suddenly become hobby royalty? And when prices explode after decades of relative stability, is that organic discovery or something collectors should approach with caution? Jeremy explains why he likes having multiple collecting lanes, from serious five-figure purchases where financial value matters to inexpensive cards he can buy simply because he loves them. When one lane gets too expensive, there is always somewhere else in the hobby to explore. And that may be the biggest lesson for new collectors: don't automatically buy what everyone else has already decided is important. Learn the hobby. Do your research. Think critically. Then find value where value makes sense to you. Subscribe to Sports Cards Live on YouTube and wherever you listen to podcasts.

Western VS Eastern Philosophy on Spirituality | Scarcity VS Abundance

3 Takeaways from my conversation with Garrett Gunderson, Wealth Liberation Expert: 1. Heal your relationship with money first. Scarcity mindset is inherited. Abundance is a choice. You can't build wealth while fighting the tool that creates it. 2. You are your greatest asset. Stop shrinking. Invest in yourself, your team, your coaches. No one ever saved their way to wealth. 3. Mentoring + coaching + systems + accountability = accelerated results. Pick one. Start today.   --- Garrett Gunderson has been jokingly called Money Jesus, not only because of the hair and beard, but because he has a rare gift for liberating people from the myths that quietly harm their relationship with money. For decades, he has helped entrepreneurs question the stories they were told about hustle, sacrifice, and delay, and replace them with something more honest and sustainable. Garrett is the author of ten books, including multiple Wall Street Journal bestsellers, with Killing Sacred Cows reaching number one and making the New York Times Best Sellers list. His work is about restoring clarity, freedom, and creating a life that actually feels worth living, one that you don't want to retire from. Oh, and to make money more fun and easy, he even filmed a comedy special you can find on Amazon Prime called The American Ream.

One of the first things Jesus did in his public ministry was invite people to become his disciples. In the first chapter of John's gospel, he used the phrase "come and see" as part of that invitation. To "see" means to observe and listen within a specific real-world context and this fall we will specifically be looking at the character of the land in the Bible. As we continue to study the land as "character" in the Bible, we examine how immediately following the call of Abram, two verses later, there was a famine in the land. Why? What did this mean? Why was the land constantly having famines along with other issues. The week, Pastor Karla talks about how famine reveals the limits of the land to invite dependence on God. Staying long enough in hard seasons to learn is a difficult task.  Passage: Genesis 12:10-20 NOTE: To see the clip played during the service, click HERE.

If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. My Guest: Daniel Lubetzky graduated from Stanford Law School. And then declined lucrative job offers to start his own business, only paying himself $24,000 a year for a decade. And then he founded KIND and grew it into a snack brand that Mars later valued at $5 billion dollars. Today he invests full-time on Shark Tank, and he's the son of a Holocaust survivor whose story shaped everything he's built. Find work that gives you energy, purpose, and meaning. If you enjoy what you're doing, you're far more likely to be great at it. And you're already winning, because you get up every morning doing something satisfying. The danger of loving your work is overworking. Daniel did it building PeaceWorks and KIND. You have to pace yourself. His father survived a death march out of Dachau. Twelve and a half when he entered the camp, fifteen and a half during the march. Six feet tall and under 70 pounds, and no shoes. The Nazis were walking prisoners up a mountain to push them off a cliff because they didn't have enough bullets. A snowstorm saved his life. His father, grandfather, and uncle hugged to say goodbye. The snow buried them and formed a kind of igloo that kept them warm through the night. They woke, dug out, and the Nazis were gone. The soldiers who liberated them were Japanese American. The 442nd, the most decorated unit of its size in American history, was made up of men whose own families were being held in internment camps back home. Daniel's family had never seen an Asian person and didn't understand what they were witnessing. Seventy years later, he got to say thank you. A friend called saying they were sitting with a doctor who had a postcard from Larry Lubetzky. That was Daniel's uncle, who had just died. Daniel reconnected with the captain, who had gone on to become a scientist at Harvard, and eventually gave a eulogy at his funeral. The lesson he takes from it isn't perseverance. It's the power of one person to change another person's life. You won't pull off a rescue every day. You can still look someone in the eye at the supermarket. "You have no idea what that person's been going through." Human connection is what pulls people back. At a conference on fighting hate, Daniel heard how young people vulnerable to recruitment were pulled back by ordinary human connection. Being kind in your daily life makes it harder for the people trying to recruit them. There's no such thing as failure or success. Daniel keeps shelves of successes in one office and shelves of failures in another, and now thinks the separation is a mistake. He never would have built KIND without ten years of mistakes at PeaceWorks. PeaceWorks was a college thesis turned into a company. The argument: get neighbors on opposite sides of a conflict doing business together, and you shatter stereotypes, build relationships, and give both sides a stake in each other. He got Israelis, Palestinians, Jordanians, Egyptians, and Turks trading with one another. Daniel turned down $86,000 out of Stanford Law to pay himself $24,000. That's what he could afford, and it's what he paid his team. Grit, wit, and fit. Grit is the work ethic and refusing to give up. Wit is the strategy, the creativity to outthink competitors. Fit is whether the product actually matches what people want. Grit alone isn't enough. Do not assume he was invincible. He cried alone in his studio apartment more than once, convinced he'd made a mistake and was wasting his life. He questioned himself multiple times a day. The jerk who broke him was also right. At a trade show, a buyer told him to stop, that he was way too pushy, to give people space and get out of his life. Daniel was 25 and it broke him. Then he reflected and realized the man was correct. Don't be the ultra-passive person watching the world happen. Don't be the person who only pushes. The job is to be persistent enough to win and be loved for it, which is very hard. "I prepare for anything that I'm not prepared for." Daniel loves winging it and hates preparing. But if there's something he doesn't know, he'll put in the work today, tomorrow, and the day after. Active listening takes real energy. Daniel needs an hour to decompress after every interview he conducts. He's blunt that listening isn't his greatest strength, which is exactly why he's leaning into it. His dad was the best interviewer he ever knew, because he was a coach. When Daniel asked him a question, his father would answer with another question and let him find it himself. A great coach or parent doesn't tell you what to do. They help you ask the questions you need to ask yourself. Telling is the easier skill. Kids keep you humble, and that's the point. You need someone in your life who can call you out when you start thinking too much of yourself, whether that's your kids, your spouse, or your team. KIND started because the healthy snack aisle didn't exist. Training for the 2002 New York City Marathon, Daniel's options were food that tasted like astronaut rations or pure indulgence. Nothing was portable, wholesome, and convenient at the same time. KIND was named after his father, who died the year they launched. Everyone who met him described him the same way. He saw his mission in life as bringing smiles to others. The name became the three pillars: kind to your body, kind to your taste buds, kind to the world. They took a vote on whether to quit. Six or seven people around a table, ten hard years behind them, a major account just lost. The choice was one more shot or two months to go find jobs. They all voted to try again. Then KIND launched. Sampling was the inflection point. Daniel had been treating it as a cost. It was an investment. They went from $800 in 2008 to $800,000 in 2009 to $20 million in free product within a few years, which is what let them scale. Sampling only works if the mousetrap is right. If one in ten people like it, you'll lose your shirt. Nine in ten people who tried a KIND bar wanted to buy more. Those people became the ambassadors. Scarcity, gluttony, and resourcefulness. A wasteful culture runs you into the ground. A scarcity mentality preserves every dollar but caps your potential, because everything looks like a cost center. Resourcefulness is the middle: think like an owner, spend less where you can, and invest where it compounds. Nice and kind are not the same thing. "If you're nice, it doesn't cost you. It's easy. You can be weak and nice. But to be kind, you need to be strong." Kindness requires you to be a protagonist. What Daniel looks for in a founder: Integrity. If he doesn't trust them, no amount of upside matters. Someone worth helping. It's going to be a rollercoaster, and he'll be in the trenches with them. Real passion. Enough that he can sense they'll outwork everyone else. You don't find integrity by asking about integrity. You ask other questions and watch how the person performs. Daniel says Barbara Corcoran is the best on the show at reading people this way. The four C's of a builder's mindset: curious, compassionate, creative, and courageous. Daniel credits them with building KIND, the OneVoice Movement, and everything since. Daniel's champagne moment a year from now: the Builders Movement making real progress. His argument is that every industry has a lobby representing it, and the only group without one is the overwhelming majority of citizens who agree with each other on most issues and want problems solved. He wants a movement that holds all parties and all special interests accountable to that majority. A scarcity mindset versus an abundance mindset. Viewing something as a cost instead of viewing it as an investment. This was Daniel's early mistake with Kind bars. He only budgeted $800 a year for samples. He viewed it as a cost. He changed his mind and realized it was an investment. He upped it to $800,000 per year in samples. And eventually to $20 million a year. Scarcity versus abundance. View it as an investment instead of a cost Daniel's 4 C's of a builder's mindset – curiosity, compassion, creativity, and courage for That's how you build both a company and a movement.  The difference between being nice and being kind. Being nice avoids conflict to protect feelings in the moment. Being kind is about being willing to risk the moment, telling the hard truth because you actually care about them. His dad, grandfather, and uncle – Near the end of the war, Roman, his father, and his brother were death-marched out of Dachau toward the mountains, where the guards meant to push them off a cliff. A freak overnight blizzard scattered the guards; by morning they were gone. The men who found the survivors were the 522nd Field Artillery Battalion — the only all–Japanese–American unit in the U.S. Army, many of whose own families were sitting in American internment camps at that very moment. Daniel has said those soldiers showed a tenderness that "had not been seen in 1945." Magic – Daniel taught himself magic as a kid in Mexico City and actually worked as a traveling magician through Europe and the Middle East for the better part of a year. He still performs one magic show a year for his team... And he's said it's the only thing all year he genuinely prepares for. Everything else, he improvises. "My team is always very concerned that I just jump into stuff." A scarcity mindset versus an abundance mindset. Viewing something as a cost instead of viewing it as an investment. This was Daniel's early mistake with Kind bars. He only budgeted $800 a year for samples. He viewed it as a cost. He changed his mind and realized it was an investment. He upped it to $800,000 per year in samples. And eventually to $20 million a year. Scarcity versus abundance. View it as an investment instead of a cost. Reflection Questions Where in your work are you all grit and no wit or fit? What would change if you spent an hour on strategy before your next hundred hours of effort? Think of the harshest feedback you've ever received. Set aside how it was delivered. Was any of it correct, and what did you do with it? Where in your life are you being nice when the situation calls for you to be kind?

Do not steal. Simple enough, right? But the biblical definition of stealing goes further than most of us want to admit — taking without consent, yes, but also defrauding, deceiving, and withholding what is rightfully owed. And underneath all of it is the same mentality: there isn't enough, so I better take what I can get. In this message, Eric walks through the eighth commandment and makes the case that this is really a generosity sermon. He traces the scarcity mentality from COVID toilet paper shelves to the Malachi storehouse, from the farmer's market scale to Abraham on the mountain — and lands on the only thing that actually transforms takers into givers: the gospel. In this message: What stealing actually means — legally and biblically How taking from your neighbor diminishes them — and connects to contempt The scarcity mentality vs. our generous God who has cattle on a thousand hills Why God asked for tithes — and what Nehemiah 12 says about where it actually went The rich young man and the open hands Jesus asks for Key Scriptures: Exodus 20:15 • Leviticus 19 • Malachi 3:6–12 • Genesis 22 • 2 Corinthians 8:9 • Matthew 19:16–22 • Philippians 2 • Proverbs 11:1

Most people think cards are toys. I built a whole business on proving they can be education, art, and assets. Save this if you love a good underdog story - or send it to someone who still thinks trading cards are just for kids. Aladdan Flinn went from collecting cardboard to creating Base Trading Cards - and the lesson is bigger than cards: Scarcity matters, but transparency matters more. A niche can be a weakness or your biggest advantage. The best brands don't chase everyone - they build a tribe. That's why this conversation hit so hard. It's about creativity, conviction, and knowing when to go against the grain. Maybe the real value was never just in the card.

If you've been dating for a while, you've probably felt the pull of scarcity thinking. It can sound like “there's no good people left to date” or “I need to lock this down before he loses interest.” Abundance thinking sounds more expansive and hopeful. When you date from a place of abundance, you believe there's enough love, enough time, and enough good people out there, so you can slow down and make healthier choices.Here are five places where the difference between scarcity and abundance shows up most clearly in real dating situations.►Please subscribe/rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts http://bit.ly/lastfirstdateradio or Spotify https://tinyurl.com/lfdradio ►If you're feeling stuck in dating and relationships and would like to find your last first date, apply for a complimentary 30-minute breakthrough session with me https://lastfirstdate.com/application ►Free Facebook for women https://facebook.com/groups/yourlastfirstdate ►Get my books: Becoming a Woman of Value; How to Thrive in Life and Love https://bit.ly/womanofvaluebook , Choice Points in Dating https://amzn.to/3jTFQe9 and Love at Last https://amzn.to/4erpj7C ►Submit your dating dilemma to be answered on my podcast https://tinyurl.com/datingdilemma ►Group Coaching: https://lastfirstdate.com/the-woman-of-value-club/ ►Website https://lastfirstdate.com/ ► Instagram https://www.instagram.com/lastfirstdate1/ ► TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@lastfirstdate1 ►Get Amazon Music Unlimited FREE for 30 days at https://getamazonmusic.com/lastfirstdate

Steve continues his conversation with his good friend, MacArthur “Genius Grant” recipient, and fellow University of Chicago economist. Sendhil breaks down the hypothesis of his book Scarcity, explains why machines aren't competition for human intelligence, and tells Steve why it's important to appreciate other people's good ideas before developing your own.

Scarcity whispers that there isn't enough. Ego insists you deserve more anyway. Abundance is the quiet third option nobody mentions. Most of us were handed scarcity as a default setting. This episode sits with that tension: what scarcity actually protects us from, why ego is so loyal to it, and what shifts when abundance becomes a practiced choice instead of a lucky feeling. It's less about having more and more about needing less from the wrong things. Ask what your ego is really protecting when it demands "more" Treat abundance as a discipline you build, not a mood you wait for Trace your scarcity triggers back to their original source SPONSORS ☺️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MOD.com⁠⁠ Prescription Modafinil for energy and focus.

Show Notes: United Methodist pastors Matt Rawle and Rachel Billups — co-founders of the Hub for Innovation and co-authors of Dream, Dare, Disrupt — join Chris and Eddie to talk about what ministry looks like on the other side of COVID. Matt traces how something as basic as a funeral changed (Saturday mornings became Thursday afternoons, live-streamed on Facebook), and the two walk through the four-movement framework from their book: curiosity, leadership, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Along the way: a metaverse prayer experiment that outlived its Oculus headsets, Matt's idea of "prevenient technology," what happens when you actually ask kids how they'd rather light the acolyte candle, and why Rachel and Matt both insist that endings — not just beginnings — are a feature of healthy ministry, not a bug. They close on their working definition of innovation: not gadgets, but creativity meeting utility — illustrated by a community garden that grew its ministry by simply adding chairs.Resources & Links:Dream, Dare, Disrupt: How Experiments, Risk, and Embracing Failure Can Build Life-Giving Ministry — Matt Rawle & Rachel Billups (Friendship Press): https://www.friendshippress.org/products/dream-dare-disrupt-how-experiments-risk-and-embracing-failure-can-build-world-changing-ministryThe Sandbox: Playing Toward What's Next in Your Ministry — companion workbook, Rawle & BillupsHub for Innovation: https://www.hub4innovation.orgMatt Rawle: https://www.mattrawle.comRachel Billups: https://www.rachelbillups.com

Scarcity-driven fundraising tactics-chasing, over-following up, pushing too soon-might be quietly sabotaging your donor relationships. In this episode, Maryanne Dersch shows you how to shift from pressure to flow.Key Takeaways:Scarcity in fundraising often begins as a nervous system response to uncertainty—like being behind goal or a donor going quiet—and can drive behaviors such as chasing, over-following up, and pitching too soon, which donors experience as pressure.Maryanne's Donor Flow Framework (Awareness → Interest → Connection → Action) emphasizes moving people at their natural pace; scarcity wants to “skip ahead” to the ask, while flow means meeting donors exactly where they are and offering the next natural invitation.Shifting from pushing to curiosity, pitching to connecting, and chasing to inviting creates conditions where donors lean in rather than pull back, because they feel understood, sovereign, and not treated like ATMs.Sustainable fundraising grows from confidence, connection, and influence—trusting the value of your work, understanding what matters to donors, and creating conditions for movement—supported by intentional mindset practices like mantras about time and money that keep you out of scarcity loops. "Not responding is a response." "Scarcity tries to manufacture movement. Influence creates the conditions for movement, and that is my whole life's work in that sentence: creating conditions for movement." "Sustainable fundraising doesn't come from pushing harder. It comes from creating the conditions in which donors naturally want to move closer."- Maryanne Dersch Reference:Scarcity Donor Flow - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1F1Q-Lbp1BQ5bklAsNqAf92zScepjBBOF/view?usp=sharingAsk for and receive all you want, need, and deserve without feeling rejected, ineffective, or pushy.

I want to start this episode with someone I lost recently. A dear colleague of mine, Riff Hutton, passed away a couple of weeks ago from a brain tumor. I am opening with him because I just used something he taught me. I came into my booth and my preamp was not working. And there was a part of me that just wanted to say forget it, record on the laptop mic, move on. And then Riff's voice came to me. Be curious. So instead of pushing through I got calm. I started looking at why. Turned out the power cord into my preamp has a lock position and it had gotten unlocked. A simple thing. But the old me would have forced it and missed the lesson entirely. Riff Hutton, if you are out there listening on some plane, thank you for teaching me to be curious. Forcing vs Allowing Today's episode is about attracting rather than forcing. And you are talking to a reformed forcer here. The times I have pushed hardest are the times I have created the least flow. There is an energy to forcing that is very close to frustration and anger. I am going to make this happen. And when I operate from that energy, things go wrong. Last night I was exhausted and forcing myself to make dinner and the glass lid to my frying pan shattered in the salmon. Everything was fine. But I said to myself, you are forcing. What I really needed to say was I am too tired to cook. Either we make a salad or we go out. When I gave myself permission to be curious instead, when my tech broke down before this recording, it created an opportunity to learn something and to teach you something. That is not magical thinking. That is nervous system reality. What Scarcity Actually Looks Like Scarcity is not just financial. Scarcity sounds like it is too late for me. I am too old. I missed my chance. Everyone is ahead of me. It shows up in actions too. Checking casting sites obsessively. Spiraling when someone from your acting class books a job. Treating every audition like something you have to survive instead of something you get to be curious in. Believing that rejection defines your self-worth. Scarcity is a clenched fist. Abundance, and that means abundance of love, opportunity, curiosity, is an open hand. Your nervous system affects your ability to see opportunity, stay grounded, and recover after rejection. If it is dysregulated you overthink, you chase approval, you lose your authenticity. And your authenticity is your superpower. Can You Receive Here is the exercise I want you to try right now. Imagine booking the dream role. Imagine finally being seen as an actor the way you have always wanted. Really sit with it. And then notice what emotion appeared immediately afterward. Was it fear? Pressure? Guilt? Fear of visibility? Because if it was, those emotions matter. They are showing you where you are stuck. So many actors become addicted to the struggle. If that is you, it is because struggle feels more familiar than ease. I want ease to feel familiar. I want flow to feel familiar. Because peace can feel threatening. Calm can feel unproductive. Stability can feel suspicious. But your nervous system dictates your success more than your effort. That is the truest thing I have discovered in 30 years. The Bottom Line Allowing is not passive. Allowing is staying open long enough for life to meet you. Your job is not to force every outcome. Your job is to become available for what you say you want. Your emotions are your inner GPS. They are showing you where you are going. If you feel good, you are going somewhere good. Want to Keep the Conversation Going?

This work is amazing and you get so many surprises along the way. As I always say, stay safe and treat yourself real well.

Today we will talk about how shifting your mindset will impact your life. A scarcity mindset is  a way of thinking that focuses on what you believe you don't have enough of - time, money, or help - so you get stuck on what you were missing instead of seeing other options and opportunities. A scarcity mindset will narrow our attention and lead us to more stress, anexity, and even poor decision making.  Contact Julie theveterinarylifecoach.com

Food rationing and scarcity fears can show up in eating disorders in surprising ways. You might save the last few bites even though you're still hungry, carefully make favorite foods “last,” become anxious when safe foods run low, or hesitate to eat something because you're worried you won't have it later. In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne explores how food scarcity anxiety can affect people with anorexia, bulimia, ARFID, and other eating disorders. Restriction can teach the brain and body that food is scarce, even when food is physically available. Over time, saving food may start to provide a sense of certainty, predictability, or safety. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN You'll hear about why people with anorexia may ration foods they enjoy, how the restrict-binge-purge cycle in bulimia can create a sense of food urgency, and why ARFID safe foods may become especially difficult to use when someone fears running out. Dr. Marianne also discusses how autism, ADHD, sensory differences, executive functioning, and food insecurity can shape scarcity fears. For neurodivergent people, keeping backup foods may actually support eating. The important question is whether those foods remain available to eat or become so protected that using them creates anxiety. ARFID, AUTISM, & SAFE FOODS For people with ARFID and autism, food availability can carry additional meaning. A brand change, discontinued product, altered texture, different packaging, or unavailable restaurant item can eliminate a previously reliable food. Protecting or stocking safe foods may therefore reflect a genuine need for sensory predictability rather than weight or body image concerns. Understanding the reason behind the behavior can help parents, providers, and people with ARFID respond with more flexibility and less pressure. If you want to learn more, Dr. Marianne's self-paced ARFID and Selective Eating course covers ARFID treatment through a neurodivergent-affirming, sensory-attuned, trauma-informed approach, including autism, ADHD, PDA, autonomy, safe foods, sensory differences, and nervous system regulation. Learn more at drmariannemiller.com/arfid. KEY TAKEAWAYS Food rationing isn't always about restriction. Sometimes you're saving certainty, sensory predictability, pleasure, permission, or tomorrow's sense of safety. Rather than immediately trying to eliminate the behavior, consider asking: What am I afraid will happen if this food is gone? That answer can help identify whether you need more consistent nourishment, greater access to safe foods, support with anorexia or bulimia recovery, practical backup foods, or repeated experiences of learning that food can be eaten today and become available again tomorrow. If you're looking for eating disorder therapy, ARFID therapy, anorexia treatment, bulimia treatment, or neurodivergent-affirming eating disorder support, visit drmariannemiller.com to learn more about working with Dr. Marianne.

Welcome to the first episode of “Save Me a Spot at the Supra” on Heavy Things Lightly where John Heers hosts singer and Broadway performer Carrie Manolakos (best known for her performances in Mama Mia! and Wicked) at his restaurant after she attended a Supra, discussing how the tradition builds community, the role of the tamada, and ways to bring more music into American Supras. Carrie reflects on her early discovery as a vocalist, her training in the Syracuse Children's Chorus, performing professionally as a child, and later learning to belt and pursuing powerful roles. She describes major hardships beginning around 2014, and how COVID brought stillness, but also industry pressures she refused, leading her to step away, stay quiet, and later face public backlash after speaking openly, including support for RFK Jr. She shares how pain, a dental injury, and her film “Metanoia” coincided with returning to Orthodoxy, deepening her faith and art, and closes with a toast about eye-to-eye connection, grace, and unity.Chapters00:00 Welcome to the Supra02:43 Meet Carrie Manolakos04:05 First Impressions of Supra07:37 Tamada and Table Magic08:56 Why We Sing Together15:00 Getting Americans to Sing21:15 Why You Must Go22:35 Famous Guests Wish List25:40 Carries Early Talent26:50 Training and First Gigs30:41 Work Ethic and Athletics32:19 New York Pull in Her 20s32:50 Losing Innocence33:27 Building a Belt36:01 Scarcity and Worth37:26 Faith Roots and Drift39:48 2014 Breaking Point41:43 Alone Through Crisis45:22 Defining Diva Needs51:54 Wicked Standby Chaos53:19 COVID Career Exit55:59 Intuition and Refusal58:40 Hiding and Backlash01:07:00 Nashville Reset Plan01:10:00 Reading Scripture Again01:11:50 Art Led to Faith01:12:06 Going Rogue in Nashville01:15:50 Injury and Metanoia01:19:56 Sermon Hits Home01:23:37 Learning as a Convert01:26:29 Speaking Out and Backlash01:30:05 Floods and Guardianship01:33:57 Politics as Religion01:37:42 Writing America Song01:39:27 Dealbreakers and Values01:41:15 Art and Human Commonality01:42:57 Ala Verde Toast01:49:41 Final Blessing and Outro__

You have more access, more tools, and more opportunity than any generation in history. And you still feel like it is not enough. In this solo episode of The Fulfillionaire, the conversation goes straight to the root of why scarcity persists even when abundance is all around you. Rooted in the insights of Brett Hurt's book Love Conquers Fear, this episode breaks down the two forces keeping entrepreneurs and small business owners stuck: tribalism and scarcity wiring. Both are biological. Both are outdated. And both are costing you more than you realize in your business, your cash flow decisions, and your ability to build real wealth. You will also learn why social media, advertising, and the news cycle are designed to keep you feeling like you do not have enough, how to define wealth on your own terms instead of someone else's, and how taking inventory across all four dimensions of wealth, including people wealth, time wealth, financial wealth, and health wealth, can shift your nervous system from scarcity to abundance. The goal is not just to make more money. It is to stop letting fear and lack drive every financial decision you make. Scarcity is not your fault. But staying in it is a choice.

This week on Yo Quiero Dinero I sat down with Leslie Priscilla, a Parent Coach, founder of Latinx Parenting, and author of the brand-new book CHANCLA: Healing Our Families, Ourselves, and Our Culture. Together we talk about the things that aren't always so easy when it comes Latino parenting: the good, the bad, and la chancla itself. We're getting into intergenerational trauma, why "gentle parenting" content ignores the reality Latina moms actually live in, what reparenting really looks like day to day, and how the money scarcity messaging we grew up with shapes our kids for life. Don't sleep on this one! WE GET INTO:1:13 Latino Parenting & Breaking Cycles2:15 Leslie's Parenting Journey6:58 Parenting with Compassion Under Pressure18:11 Why La Chancla?

Teaching kids to question authority is a survival skill, not disrespect.CONNECT WITH LESLIE:– Latinx Parenting: https://latinxparenting.org– Buy the book: https://latinxparenting.org/chancla-book/ – Follow Leslie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latinxparenting TAKE THE NEXT STEP WITH YO QUIERO DINERO:

Scarcity is part of life. But free people have an extraordinary ability to overcome it.In TWE 179, I explain how free-market capitalism creates abundance through prices, entrepreneurship, competition, innovation, and human ingenuity.From Julian Simon's famous wager to housing, energy, healthcare, AI, and data centers, the lesson is similar: controlling prices doesn't create more supply.Capitalism doesn't eliminate scarcity or guarantee that every price falls. Instead, it creates a discovery process that gives people incentives to solve problems and produce more.The question policymakers should ask isn't simply, “How can government make this cheaper?”It's “What's preventing people from producing more?”#Capitalism #Economics #FreeMarkets #EconomicFreedom

What did you believe about money before you realized you had other options?In this episode, I'm sharing my own Money Story—and some of the experiences that shaped it long before I realized I was creating one.My dad's gambling addiction and my parents' divorce took my family from upper middle class to below the poverty line when I was around 12–13 years old. At the same time, I was growing up in a conservative, fundamentalist, high-control church where I absorbed complicated messages about money and faith.Somewhere along the way, those stories became tangled together.I came to believe that having money was the opposite of having faith—and that maybe God didn't give me money because He knew I couldn't be trusted with it.Nobody ever explicitly taught me that.But that's the thing about our Money Stories: we don't only inherit what people tell us. We make meaning from what happens to us.In this episode, we explore:• How childhood, family, religion, culture, and painful experiences shape our relationship with money• The difference between blame and recognizing how we co-created our own stories• Why a Money Story doesn't feel like a story and simply feels like reality• Becoming curious about our beliefs instead of immediately trying to “fix” them• Why I no longer believe healing means arriving at a final, perfected relationship with money• My movement from Scarcity → Abundance → Sufficiency• What the book The Soul of Money helped me understand about money as God in action• Jesus' teaching, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also”—and what might happen when we intentionally move our treasure• What it might mean to create a more shame-free, Natural relationship with Money

Recording date: 28th August 2026Olive Resource Capital's latest Compass episode centres on two connected observations: a summer drilling season that is quietly delivering strong results, and a persistent shortage of the advanced copper projects the market increasingly wants exposure to.On the drilling side, Derek Macpherson said a quick scan of recent releases turned up roughly ten notable holes in a two-day window, spanning gold and copper-equivalent results from companies including Lake Victoria Gold, Free Gold, ATEX Resources and VR Resources. He attributed the volume to well-funded companies - many of which raised capital during the frothy financing window of late 2025 and early 2026 - finally reaching the drill bit with larger, multi-rig programmes than in past cycles. Despite the quality of results, Samuel Pelaez noted that most of the underlying stocks have moved only modestly, framing individual holes as a starting point for deeper diligence rather than a signal to react to immediately. He illustrated the point with VR Resources Ltd. (TSXV:VRR), whose strong copper-equivalent grade at its New Boston project in Nevada turned out to be molybdenum-led on closer inspection, and with Heritage Mining Corp., where a genuinely strong gold result failed to move the share price because of an unresolved warrant overhang from prior financings.Both Macpherson and Pelaez pointed to operational bottlenecks as a growing constraint on the pace of news flow. Assay laboratory turnaround times have roughly doubled industry-wide, and at least one Nevada-based lab has stopped accepting new clients. Macpherson cited a conversation with White Gold Corp. CEO David D'Onofrio, who described Yukon labs as overwhelmed by the scale of concurrent drill programmes in the territory - a dynamic likely to push meaningful drill-result reporting into the fourth quarter and beyond the traditional autumn conference season.This episode returned to a recurring theme: the scarcity of tier-one copper development projects. Pelaez cited comments from Mineral Resources Limited (ASX:MIN) chief executive Chris Ellison, who told investors on a results call that the roughly A$10 billion Australian miner intends to buy a copper project outside Australia within the next 12 months - a sign, in Pelaez's view, that copper demand is broadening well beyond specialist resource investors. Macpherson highlighted Rio Tinto's US$15 million strategic investment in Mogotes Metals Inc. (TSXV:MOG), closed on 27 August, as further evidence of major producers competing for exposure to early-stage assets in Argentina and Chile's Vicuña district, home to NGEx Minerals Ltd.'s (TSXV:NGEX) four significant discoveries. Closer to home, Olive continues to build positions in Edge Copper Corporation's (TSXV:EDCU) Zonia project in Arizona, Gladiator in the Yukon, and Valhalla in Alaska.Olive's preferred strategy is buying advanced development assets likely to be built or acquired this cycle, on the view that the valuation gap between developers and producers is typically widest early in a bull market, a gap they expect to become more pronounced in copper as competition for scarce, advanced assets intensifies.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com/subscribe

What is enough?Enough money. Enough food. Enough time. Enough work and rest. Enough security for the future—and enough pleasure in the now.We talk a lot about scarcity and abundance, but in this episode, I'm exploring a third possibility: Sufficiency.Not “technically enough to survive.” Not settling or convincing ourselves we shouldn't want more. But enough to flourish in this Season of our Lives.As we move toward Autumn and Harvest Season, I'm looking to Nature and our ancestors for a different way of relating to resources. The Harvest wasn't the same every year. Nature didn't demand maximum output in every Season. There were times to receive, produce, gather, distribute, release—and rest.What might happen if we let Nature teach us something about our relationship with money, too?I'm also sharing about one of the most transformative books I've ever read, Lynne Twist's The Soul of Money, and inviting you into my new fully asynchronous Voice-Note Book Club: The Soul of Money, happening September 16–October 23.And no—you don't even have to read the book. ❤️Each week, I'll share one of my favorite excerpts in a private Voxer group, along with a voice-note and questions to explore together.

How we set our minds in the morning has a tremendous impact on our day. Choosing an abundance mindset over scarcity does not eliminate hardship but changes how we respond to difficulty. Key Takeaways The mindset we adopt — abundance vs. scarcity — directly shapes how we experience and navigate life A scarcity mindset leads to feelings of limitation, struggle, and missed opportunities, while an abundance mindset opens the door to seeing possibilities and overcoming obstacles Absolute language such as "never" and "always" reinforces negative thinking and should be avoided Shifting to an abundance mindset is a daily, intentional practice that positively impacts mental, emotional, and physical health Opportunities are often already present in our lives; a scarcity mindset simply prevents us from recognizing them Visit ConfidenceThroughHealth.com to find discounts to some of our favorite products.Follow me via All In Health and Wellness on Facebook or Instagram.Find my books on Amazon: No More Sugar Coating: Finding Your Happiness in a Crowded World and Confidence Through Health: Live the Healthy Lifestyle God DesignedProduction credit: Social Media Cowboys

Why information can be hard to come by after the disastrous flash floods that have had hit Nepal and neighbouring Tibet, especially on the Chinese side of the border.Also in the programme: Ratko Mladic, the Bosnian Serb commander who oversaw the worst atrocities in Europe since the Second World War, has died in prison in The Hague; the alleged mastermind of the 9/11 attacks - Khalid Sheikh Mohammed - is finally given a trial date, in June 2028; and how climate change-related heatwaves in the Alps and Jura are likely to change the flavour of some prized French cheeses.(IMAGE: Flood survivor return to home following a flash flood in Devighat Village, Nuwakot district, Nepal, 27 August 2026 / CREDIT: Narendra Shrestha / EPA / Shutterstock)

Driven by a streetwear-inspired model of weekly drops and deliberate scarcity, Last Crumb built a viral $120-a-box cookie brand without spending a dollar on paid ads. By spending a year obsessing over every detail—from custom boxes to cookie angles—founder Derek Jaeger generated explosive organic clout, and celebrities took notice. The brand eventually moved away from the scarcity model in 2023 to expand into evergreen retail and long-term scaling.  For more on Last Crumb, in show notes, click here.   Subscribe and watch Shopify Masters on YouTube!Sign up for your FREE Shopify Trial here.

Success is easier to measure than ever. Revenue targets, exits, titles, promotions, the markers are clear and constant. So why do so many leaders still feel like it's not enough? In this episode, Susan Drumm sits down with Lynne Twist, bestselling author, founder of the Soul of Money Institute, and co-founder of the Pachamama Alliance, along with Sara Vetter, CEO of the Soul of Money Institute, to explore why scarcity, not ambition, is often the hidden force driving leaders to keep moving the goalpost, and why the leaders who thrive are the ones who learn to recognize it. Together, they discuss why your money story is not the same as your money facts, how even the most successful people can stay stuck in a cycle of never enough, and why appreciation, gratitude, and a purpose bigger than yourself are becoming the real markers of leadership maturity. In this episode, you'll learn Why the lie of scarcity shapes even the most successful leaders How to tell the difference between your money story and your money facts Why more rarely feels like enough, even for billionaire CEOs A simple practice that interrupts scarcity thinking in real time How building a purpose bigger than yourself changes what enough means This conversation is for executives, founders, and growth-oriented leaders who want to lead from sufficiency instead of fear, no matter how much they've already achieved.

Why You Can't Stop Being Productive Why can it feel easier to keep working when you're exhausted than it does to simply stop? In this episode, D'Arcy looks underneath overworking to the unconscious patterns that can make rest surprisingly uncomfortable. Sometimes the issue isn't that we're "bad at resting." Rest isn't creating the anxiety. Rest is revealing the anxiety that activity was covering. Scarcity tells us there isn't enough time, money, momentum or opportunity, so stopping feels irresponsible. Being useful gets rewarded. Being capable becomes part of our identity. And eventually we can start living by rules we never consciously chose: I can rest when everything is handled. Everyone and everything gets taken care of before I do. I have to earn rest. Except everything is never handled — so we keep moving the finish line. D'Arcy shares how productivity became part of her own identity, what burnout forced her to confront, and what ten days in silence and two months away from Instagram taught her about who she is when she isn't producing. In this episode: Why rest can sometimes make you anxious How scarcity creates the urge to do more Why "I'll rest when…" becomes an impossible finish line When being capable turns into an identity How we condition ourselves to ignore our bodies and push through Why stillness can feel uncomfortable after years of productivity What silence taught D'Arcy about existing without being useful How to begin making an unconscious productivity pattern conscious Your Brain Rewire Finish this sentence: I can rest when __________. Then ask yourself: What do I believe rest says about me? What do I believe will happen if I stop? Whose approval did usefulness once earn me? The next time you feel the impulse to get up and make yourself useful, don't immediately obey it. Notice the rule first. Consciousness comes before choice.
