Ever wanted to send that scathing email or slam the door shut after someone disappointed you? We all have. But here's the hard truth: Don't burn that bridge—your future self might need it. In this episode of Reflect Forward, I dive into one of the most overlooked leadership strategies: choosing compassion over retaliation, even when you feel wronged. Especially when you feel wronged. Because the way you show up during conflict doesn't just define your character—it shapes your future opportunities. The Real Reason We Lash Out—and Why We Must Resist When someone quits unexpectedly, underdelivers, or betrays your trust, your brain goes into fight-or-flight mode. The amygdala floods your system with cortisol. Logic shrinks. Ego inflates. We react from fear, not clarity. But strong leaders don't lead from reactivity. They lead from ownership. Unfortunately, business culture conditions us to compete at all costs. We're taught to dominate, win, and protect what's “ours.” That scarcity mindset convinces us that success is limited—and anyone who threatens ours must be the enemy. But real leadership requires a different path. Mic Drop Moment: “You don't need to win every time to be successful. You need to lead every time with integrity.” The Law of Unexpected Returns Here's the magic: the kindness you extend today often circles back to benefit you later. Sometimes years later. Maybe it's the employee you part ways with gracefully who refers top talent to you later. Or the competitor you treat respectfully who becomes your partner in a surprising venture. The point is: you never know. And in tight-knit industries, your reputation is your currency. Mic Drop Moment: “Every interaction is a seed—and the most valuable harvests come from the bridges you didn't burn.” Compassion Isn't Weakness. It's Strategy. Forgiveness doesn't mean condoning poor behavior. It means not carrying resentment. You can set boundaries and still choose compassion. You can walk away from someone and still treat them with grace. Mic Drop Moment: “Just because the relationship looks like this today doesn't mean it will look like this forever.” The long game of leadership means leaving the door open—even if it's only a crack. Five Ways to Lead With Compassion—Even When It's Hard 1. Pause before reacting. Ask yourself: “What's the story I'm telling myself right now?” 2. Assume positive intent. Even if you're hurt. Especially if you're hurt. 3. Use “I” statements. Lead with your truth, not with blame. 4. Reach out with grace. A kind message can shift everything. 5. Zoom out. Will this matter five years from now? How do you want to be remembered? Key Takeaways • Lashing out is human. Leading with ownership is leadership. • Scarcity thinking creates enemies. Long-term thinking builds networks. • Your reputation travels. People remember how you made them feel. • Grace is strategic. Leave room for future reconnection. • Forgiveness fosters emotional maturity, team health, and future growth. Call to Action: Lead With Integrity, Even in Discomfort Think of one person you've mentally written off. Someone you feel hurt by. Ask yourself: • What kind of relationship would I want with them in five years? • What's one small act of compassion I can offer—today? Maybe it's a message. Maybe it's just letting go. Either way, take the high road. Because your future self just might thank you. Connect with Kerry Don't forget to subscribe to Reflect Forward on your favorite podcast platform or YouTube.

What if the key to closing more sales isn't being slick, but being curious? Today's guest, Stela Roznovan, breaks down why most people suck at sales and how to fix it through curiosity.

Starting today, Mark is going to share some thoughts about a single, powerful principle that if you put into practice … will change your life!

In this homily, we reflect on Christ's miraculous feeding of the five thousand as a revelation of His abundant love and the Church's calling to hospitality. Fr. Anthony explores how, through grace, even our limited offerings are multiplied to nourish the world, revealing a Kingdom where scarcity has no place. Enjoy the show! ------ MATTHEW 14:14-22 At that time, Jesus saw a great throng; and he had compassion on them, and healed their sick. This is what he does. He sees our suffering and heals us. What a blessing to have such a compassionate and capable God. When it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, "This is a lonely place, and the day is now over; send the crowds away to go into the villages and buy food for themselves." Jesus said, "They need not go away; you give them something to eat." Hospitality. We are meant to do more than eat and learn; we are meant to feed and teach. And more than that, we are meant to instruct others in the way of hospitality, so that they, too, may feed and teach (and teach others to feed and teach). This system is scalable, through grace, towards perfection. Scarcity is destroyed by the model of Christian hospitality. They said to him, "We have only five loaves here and two fish." The apostles did not have enough and Christ new that. But He knew they had something He could build on and multiply; again destroying the limitations of scarcity and localism. St. Hillary develops the spiritual version of this theme; This means that up to then they depended on five loaves—that is, the five books of the law. And two fish nourished them—that is, the preaching of the prophets and of John. For in the works of the law there was life just as there is life from bread, but the preaching of John and the prophets restored hope to human life by virtue of water. Therefore the apostles offered these things first, because that was the level of their understanding at the time. From these modest beginnings the preaching of the gospel has proceeded from them, from these same apostles, until it has grown into an immense power. This is the way the Lord works. He takes what we are and, through grace, transforms it into something better. In sin, we are part of the problem. Hunger, scarcity, selfishness; but He lifts us up and we become part of the solution. Feeding people with His love from a source that never ends and, as for selfishness, not only moving us unto something better, but allowing us to be a healing balm to those who suffer from the same malady. And he said, "Bring them here to me." Then he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass; and taking the five loaves and the two fish he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and broke and gave the loaves to the crowds. St. Jerome. By the breaking of the bread, he makes it into a seedbed of food—for if the bread had been left intact and not pulled apart and broken into pieces, they would have been unable to feed the great crowds of men, women and children. The law with the prophets are therefore pulled apart and broken into pieces. Mysteries are made manifest, so that what did not feed the multitude of people in its original whole and unbroken state now feeds them in its divided state. And they all ate and were satisfied. The Church has always seen this as pointing toward the Eucharist. God is the food that is “forever eaten but never consumed.” Again, note how scarcity does not exist in the Kingdom. And they took up twelve baskets full of the broken pieces left over. And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children. Then he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. St. Hilary: The loaves were given to the apostles, for through them the gifts of divine grace were to be administered. The crowds were then fed with the five loaves and two fish, and they were satisfied. The leftover fragments of bread and fish, after the people had their fill, amounted to twelve baskets. Thus, by the word of God coming from the teaching of the law and the prophets, the multitude was satisfied; and an abundance of divine power, reserved for the Gentiles from the ministry of the eternal food, was left over for the twelve apostles. And, following this metaphor, still eat from these baskets because our bishop is an inheritor of this meal, something we are blessed to share here so that we may be fed. Now we celebrate the presence of God in our midst, in this deserted place, healing our infirmities, feeding our hunger, and empowering us to do the same for others.

What if you positioned your practice like Tim Hortons in the land of Dunkin'? By Editor-in-Chief, Concierge Medicine Today/Host, The DocPreneur Leadership Podcast So, I'm riding shotgun with my teenage son who some of you have met, Matthew, riding through Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan (yes, that's a real place in Canada—not a children's book or a lumberjack's nickname). We're up there visiting family when suddenly, Matthew blurts out: “Hey Dad! Look—Tim Hortons!” You'd think he'd spotted Bigfoot holding a maple donut. Now, we live in the southeastern U.S.—where Tim Hortons isn't exactly on every corner like it is up north (oddly enough though, they just opened one of two here in Suwanee, GA and Columbus, GA -- so lucky us!). Around here however, it's all Dunkin' Donuts, Krispy Kreme and Waffle House. But to us? Tim Hortons is like spotting a unicorn running a drive-thru window. Which is precisely the point! This, my friends, is called 'scarcity marketing.' Scarcity marketing is when something becomes more desirable simply because it's rare, hard to get, or only available some of the time. Ever had Duck Donuts? Those of you who know, you know, right!? It's psychology. It's strategy. It's genius—and yet, most physicians and practice administrators in healthcare don't use it. Let's bring it back to your work more specifically in concierge medicine. Scarcity is sort of baked into the concierge medicine model isn't it? After all, most concierge doctors cap their patient panel. Their not located everywhere and heck, sometimes the doctor only takes on only 500 patients a year. You're not walking into that kind of practice on a whim with your phone in one had and WebMD printout in the other. But here's where it gets tricky: Post-COVID, patients discovered this magical thing called options. Telehealth exploded. Everyone became a semi-professional medical researcher on Instagram and TikTok. Suddenly, your patients didn't need to be within 10 miles to “see” a doctor. And now that we've entered the golden age of medical TikToks and YouTube health webinar gurus, even your great aunt knows how to self-diagnose using AI. The result? Patients are more informed, but not necessarily more connected. That's where you and your concierge practice come in and have the advantage. Sure, while accessibility is great, it's created a weird paradox. The more available something is, the less valuable it feels. Just ask Blockbuster how that went. On top of that, many low-cost primary care and "affordable" (think sub $99/pmpm) subscription-based practices still haven't fully bounced back from their pre-pandemic rhythm. Why? Because “urgent care is just easier,” or so they've been told. It's the fast-food equivalent of healthcare—convenient, but not memorable, right? Even still today, some medical practices have dropped their prices in hopes of attracting more patients. But marketing by being “the cheapest” (oops, sorry, most affordable) often becomes a race to the bottom. Spoiler alert: there's not a trophy at the bottom -- maybe just some warm fuzzies though! One industry expert we interviewed and spoke to recently (eg. summer 2025) said "You can't market “time,” “access,” or “care coordination” as part of your cash-based model. Those terms are legally sensitive under Medicare/OIG guidance and the Civil Monetary Penalties Law. What you can market — and what works — are routine exams and communications that are clearly defined and compliant.When structured properly, these can be part of a concierge-style offering without stepping over legal lines. And remember, most if not all of those published price versions of cash healthcare are not structuring their fees/services to allow for employer/tax-advantaged funding, and perhaps their lower prices are unintentionally reflecting that. Pre-tax and employer funding options allow for higher prices points, and can be used to provide versions of this care with 100% employer funding—that can enable more folks to benefit from this care model.” (Eischen; 2025) Bottom line of what he's saying is: You don't have to water down your value — just market it the right way. Stay away from vague “access” claims and focus on tangible, documentable services. His best advice, work with legal counsel specifically familiar with this space to keep your messaging clean and compliant. You can find a list of those resources at the 2025 Concierge Medicine Forum, October 16–18, 2025 in Atlanta, GA USA or in the Business Center Section of our web site found here. So what does work? Connection. Community. Belonging. Remember what the U.S. Surgeon General said not long ago? The fastest-growing health issue in America isn't cancer or heart disease. It's loneliness. Yep, good old-fashioned no-one-to-call-at-midnight loneliness. And get this—it's reportedly as dangerous as smoking 15 cigarettes a day! So now imagine you're a concierge doctor, and instead of just offering same-day appointments, you're offering connection. Patients want to feel like someone cares—like someone is on their team. And if your practice can deliver that? You're not just healthcare. You're a lifeline! For example, that's why medical practices leaning into longevity medicine are seeing a new kind of traction. Patients aren't just looking for a quick fix. They want a partner for the long haul—someone who's going to help them stay well into their 90s (with their original knees, preferably). Here's another example. Scarcity marketing is not unlike Harley-Davidson. Bear with me. I know we've moved from donuts to motorcycles, but stay with me for another minute. Harley-Davidson isn't just selling bikes. They're selling identity, loyalty, and a tight-knit community. People literally tattoo the brand on their bodies. They created H.O.G. (Harley Owners Group) to foster community. Similar to what Concierge Medicine Today has done with its FOR Doctors message. It's Harley's way of saying, “You're in the club. You belong.” And it works. That's scarcity marketing at its finest: “Not everyone gets to be a part of this. But you do!” It's not exclusive though. There's a difference. Don't confuse the two which is often why concierge medicine gets the side eye in some circles. Now ask yourself: What if your medical practice operated with the same mindset? What if you positioned your practice like Tim Hortons in the land of Dunkin'? What if instead of chasing volume, you created value—and made people (i.e. patients!) work just a little to be part of something special and personal? That's the future of patient relationships, longevity and concierge medicine I think intersect. And yes, we'll be diving into this and more at our upcoming 2025 Concierge Medicine Forum, October 16–18, 2025 in Atlanta. It's the Tim Hortons of medical conferences—rare, warm, slightly addictive, and worth the trip! In the meantime, don't just market with more noise. Market with meaning. Don't aim to be everywhere. Aim to matter somewhere. So again I ask … What if you positioned your practice like Tim Hortons in the land of Dunkin'?

You think you know Kaylor? Think again. In this episode of the Awake & Winning Podcast, Britt Geleta steps up to the mic and delivers one of the most thought-provoking Hot Seat interviews yet. Britt is a sleep coach helping exhausted moms reclaim rest and she doesn't hold back when it comes to questioning Kaylor's take on sovereignty, masculine leadership, inner drive, and societal collapse.

Buckle up.

In this episode of Cracktastic Plastic, we're diving into the shady world of false scarcity in toy marketing. You know the drill—"limited edition," "only 500 made," or the dreaded "sold out in minutes"... but was it ever truly rare? We'll break down how toy companies manipulate demand, create artificial hype, and prey on collectors' FOMO. From vintage tactics to modern pre-order panic, we're calling it like we see it. Plus, we'll share our own frustrating run-ins with fake rarity and how to avoid falling for the trap. Don't miss this one—supplies are definitely not limited.

The world constantly tells us, “You just need a little more.” But what if real peace isn't found in having more, but in learning to need less?What comes to mind when you hear the word “wealth”? For some, it means freedom. For others, it brings anxiety and pressure. Today, Jeff Manion joins us to explore how we can cultivate contentment in a culture that always craves more.Jeff Manion is the Teaching Pastor at Ada Bible Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where he has served for over 40 years. He is also the author of several books, including Satisfied: Discovering Contentment in a World of Consumption.Why Wealth Confuses UsIn a world that constantly urges us to acquire more, climb higher, and chase the next upgrade, contentment often feels elusive. But what if true satisfaction isn't found in accumulation, but in learning—learning to trust, to remember, to let go, and to live fully in the present? Contentment is not something we're born with—it's something we must learn. And we're learning it together.Let's be honest—wealth can be confusing. One day, we're living simply out of necessity, and the next, after years of doing the right things—avoiding debt, saving diligently, and giving generously—we find ourselves in a season of financial stability. You'd think contentment would come naturally at that point. But surprisingly, it doesn't.Learning contentment in a season of sufficiency is often more challenging than in a season of scarcity. When we experience financial security, the temptation to trust in our own strength rather than God's provision becomes a real concern. This isn't new—it's the same struggle the Israelites faced in Deuteronomy 8. After years of daily dependence on manna in the wilderness, God warned them not to forget Him once they entered the Promised Land. He reminded them: “Remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you the ability to produce wealth” (Deut. 8:18). That warning is for us too.The Danger of the “There and Then” MentalityContentment is rooted in the present, not the future. And yet we often believe we'll only be at peace "there and then"—when the vacation arrives, the mortgage is paid off, or the kitchen is finally renovated. But if we can't be fully alive to God and the people around us now, there's no guarantee we will be later.We don't stumble into contentment—we learn it. The Apostle Paul, writing under house arrest, said, “I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances” (Phil. 4:11). His circumstances didn't determine his joy. His peace wasn't tied to his comfort. And ours doesn't have to be either.Sometimes the path to contentment starts by taking inventory—literally. For many of us, stuff multiplies without our awareness. A drawer of unworn t-shirts, a shelf of unused dishes, boxes of forgotten CDs…they add up. We can begin the journey toward contentment by shedding excess.A simple practice, like giving away five items a day for seven weeks, can bring clarity and peace. Not because we're pursuing minimalism for its own sake, but because we're reminding ourselves that joy isn't found in our possessions—it's found in a life uncluttered by distraction, filled with God's presence and purpose.Escaping the Comparison TrapComparison is a thief of joy. Whether or not Teddy Roosevelt actually coined the phrase, it's undeniably true. In our digital age, we don't just compare lives—we compare carefully curated highlight reels. This distorts our view, convincing us we're missing out when in fact, we're richly blessed.Comparison shifts our focus from gratitude to scarcity. And scarcity suffocates generosity. When we believe we never have enough, we become unable to see the abundance God has already given us—abundance meant to be shared.Generosity is one of the most effective ways to break money's grip on our hearts. Paul's charge to Timothy echoes through the centuries: “Command those who are rich… not to put their hope in wealth… but to put their hope in God… to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share” (1 Tim. 6:17–18).When we give, we reflect the heart of our generous God—first in creation, then in Christ. And as we open our hands, we discover joy not in what we keep, but in what we release for the sake of others and the glory of God.Passing on the Legacy of ContentmentWe long for our children and grandchildren to experience true satisfaction. But contentment isn't just taught—it's caught. When our families see that our greatest joy is not in acquiring new and better things but in reflecting the generosity of Christ, they begin to understand that there's a story far bigger than material success.We want them to see us delight in giving, not just spending. To notice our peace when things don't go our way. To recognize that the content life isn't a small life—it's a deeply rich one, rooted in grace and lived with open hands.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have around $1.5 million in total assets and $500,000 in available funds. Given the current tax environment, I'm considering whether now might be a strategic time to withdraw from my pre-tax retirement accounts and pay the taxes. I'm currently living on Social Security and pension income and haven't needed to tap into my savings yet.I'd like to open an account for my great-grandchildren, who are currently 3 years old and 18 months old. I've been looking into a universal life insurance policy, but would appreciate guidance on the best way to save for their future—possibly to help with education expenses.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Satisfied: Discovering Contentment in a World of Consumption by Jeff ManionSavingForCollege.comWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

What if we could rewrite the rules of abundance? That's the question I tackle in my latest "What If" episode of the podcast. I believe we're on the cusp of a new era, one where we can move beyond the old, scarcity-driven models and embrace a future of limitless possibility. In this episode, I explore what it would mean to have a world of abundance, not just in terms of material wealth, but in all aspects of our lives: health, happiness, and human connection. I challenge the zero-sum thinking that has held us back for too long and propose a new narrative, one where we can all thrive together. I don't have all the answers, but I'm asking the questions that I believe will lead us to a better future. So, join me on this journey of exploration and let's imagine what's possible when we unlock the power of abundance. Stacie More episodes at StacieBaird.com.
My good friend Dr. Haley Schultz (@dr.haley.dds & host of @dentaldownloadpodcast) is here to share the stories of the things she never said! The lessons of the day here: sometimes we overthink and delay conversations until we've agonized for week's, they're worst case in our heads, and heavier burden for us to carry than if we were to address things swiftly and head on. Whether it's working with another classmate in a student org or having talks about money with our bosses, todays stories show that sometimes it's best to nip things in the bud, before they become a forest in our heads!IG: @drconniewang, @justaquickpinch
It's the third episode of Broad River Retail's new summer series on Stories from the River, where CEO Charlie Malouf takes listeners behind the scenes of the Story of Broad River with a full explanation of Monthly Budgets and the way Broad River plays the game. Charlie opens this episode by sharing the pivotal story of DASH (an acronym for Broad River's Home Delivery program: Delivery. Assembly. Service. in your Home.) and its transformational impact on the business. Charlie recounts Broad River's journey from a scarcity mindset—where delivery was seen merely as a break-even cost and low fees resulted in subpar delivery service—toward a spirit of abundance. By restructuring delivery pricing, investing in higher-quality service, and introducing commissions for Memory Makers on delivery sales, the company cultivated mutual prosperity and elevated both customer and Memory Maker experience while also boosting profitability. The DASH program became not just a service, but a brand differentiator, emphasizing white-glove care and quality that customers truly value. Charlie also dives into the evolution of the company's financial discipline, particularly the budgeting process, as Broad River moved from turbulent years and near-bankruptcy to a streak of consistent profitability. He discusses how transparent goals, departmental accountability, and a dual-budget approach—conservative bank budgets and more moderate stretch retail performance budgets—have helped drive both financial reliability and the rewarding of Memory Makers through generous bonuses. This approach nurtures a people-centric, performance-driven culture with a focus on long-term, shared success. Throughout the episode, Charlie stresses the importance of playing the long game, embracing change, and fostering a culture where Memory Makers are challenged, supported, and can share in the company's abundance.

In this episode of The Modern Hairstylist Podcast Hunter Donia and cohost Jodie Brown unpack the psychology that makes a seventy‑five dollar Labubu doll sold‑out Addison Rae tickets and a last minute Yosemite campsite feel worth every penny, then translate those same forces into booking and pricing strategies behind the chair.From limited booking windows that nudge indecisive clients to click “Book Now,” to the hidden cost of broadcasting every open slot, Hunter shares quick tweaks that turn FOMO into fully booked. You will also hear how one mastermind stylist fields fifty new‑client requests a month without burning out and get Hunter's exact script for locking down appointments today, pulled straight from his newest training.Key TakeawaysEvent‑based urgency: replace “anytime works” with time boxed drops like presales booking windows or targeted email blasts to push action nowSelective availability posts: share openings only with existing clients and spotlight three headline slots rather than the whole calendar to keep demand highDeadlines that convert: the simple “I will hold it until 5 p.m.” request that moves a DM chat to a confirmed appointmentWaitlists and cancellation texts: build a pathway for new clients while protecting income and boundariesDetach worth from calendar status: your value is not tied to being booked solid, it is about framing your offer to align with human buying biasWhy You Should ListenIf you have ever watched a fresh opening sit unclaimed or wondered how some stylists stay packed without nonstop marketing this episode delivers the consumer‑behavior playbook.

Key Takeaways: Money Systems Work Like Nature: Just like in nature, money systems depend on things like flow, limited supply, and trust to keep working properly. Money Changes with Society: Over time, money has changed—from gold to paper money to Bitcoin—showing how our values and systems grow and shift. Bitcoin as a Fresh Start: Bitcoin is a new kind of money. It uses digital tools and is limited in supply, giving people more control without needing to rely on banks. New Ways to Invest: Real estate and stocks used to be the main way to build wealth, but now digital assets like Bitcoin are becoming important too. Taking Control of Your Money: As old money systems become less trusted, more people are turning to digital finance to take charge of their own money and future.

In today's world, scarcity seems to be everywhere. Not enough money. Not enough time. Not enough security. It's easy to live like we're always behind, always grasping, always worried. But is that the full story?Here at FaithFi, we believe Scripture paints a different picture—one where scarcity isn't the final word. Instead, through Christ, we're invited to live with hope, wisdom, and trust in God's abundant care.The Root of ScarcityThe fear of “not having enough” isn't new. Ever since sin entered the world, our hearts have struggled with distrust. In John 10:10, Jesus describes the enemy as a thief who “comes only to steal and kill and destroy.” And that's what a scarcity mindset does. It steals peace, kills joy, and destroys our trust in God's provision.This mindset urges us to hoard instead of share, grasp instead of give, and stress instead of rest. It traps us in anxiety—a form of slavery where our lives are defined by what we lack instead of who God is.Jesus doesn't leave us in fear. In the second half of John 10:10, He offers a better way: “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”This abundance isn't about luxury—it's about the richness of God's care. From the very beginning, God created generously. Genesis 1 shows a God who overflows with creativity and provision, filling the skies, seas, and land with life. He didn't create out of need but out of joy.As Elisabeth Elliot wisely said, “God has promised to supply all our needs. What we don't have now, we don't need now.”Jesus Offers Something BetterJesus lived simply, with no home of His own, yet He never operated from scarcity. He lived generously, turning water into wine, feeding multitudes, and offering forgiveness to all. In Matthew 6:25–34, He urges us not to worry, pointing to the birds and lilies as evidence of the Father's care.“Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,” Jesus tells us, “and all these things will be added to you” (Matthew 6:33). This is the antidote to fear: a trust-filled life focused on God's Kingdom.So, how do we break free from the scarcity trap? Here are a few biblical steps:1. Renew Your MindRomans 12:2 calls us to be transformed by the renewal of our minds. Ask God to help you see life through the lens of His abundance, not the world's lack.2. Practice GratitudeThankfulness shifts our focus from what's missing to what God has already provided. It's a simple but powerful habit that reorients our hearts toward trust.3. Embrace StewardshipWe are not owners but stewards. Everything we have is a gift from God. Proverbs 3:9 reminds us to “Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce.”4. Give in FaithDon't give out of fear—give out of faith. 2 Corinthians 9:8 promises that God will provide all we need so that we can abound in every good work.God Is More Than EnoughLiving in God's abundance doesn't guarantee an easy life. But it does guarantee we never face our challenges alone, and we never need to be enslaved by fear.So when the world says, “There's not enough,” we can respond with confidence: Our God is more than enough. His abundance isn't just material—it's spiritual. It's peace, joy, and confidence that our Father knows exactly what we need.If you're struggling with financial fear or anxiety, we invite you to explore our 21-day devotional, Look at the Sparrows.

With $1.4 million in assets, is that rate competitive, or should I be considering other options?I'm on a limited income and have had serious health issues in the past. My husband is retired, and I'm struggling to find affordable health insurance. I'm also worried that my health history might lead to penalties or denial. What are my best options?I set up an LLC for a rental property and assumed I could report the income as a pass-through on my personal 1040. But my tax preparer says I now need to make quarterly estimated tax payments. Is that really necessary, and how do I know what to pay?I'm 62 and a half and thinking about retiring early this coming January. My current job no longer aligns with my values. I plan to take Social Security at around $1,835/month, which is about $500 less than my current income. My wife is still working and will cover our health insurance.

In this episode, Jim walks through the shift that changed everything: from chasing returns to building freedom through ownership and control. He shares the early lessons—from a casket factory in Gary, Indiana to Wall Street boardrooms—that forced him to question the financial playbook most people follow. The real breakthrough? Understanding that freedom isn't about having more—it's about controlling what you already earn. 3 Takeaways: Ownership is leverage. Watching a business owner control time and capital changed Jim's view of wealth. It's not about working more—it's about owning the system. Control creates independence. Through Infinite Banking and cash-flow assets, Jim took back control from banks, brokers, and traditional planners. Noise is the enemy. Schools, media, and advisors push dependence. Freedom starts by questioning the script—and taking action. This episode is for anyone tired of playing defense. Listen, share, and hit subscribe to join a community that plays offense with money.
In this episode of Detox For Your Life, Nicole gets personal, revealing a truth she's never shared before: every decision she's made up until now has been rooted in scarcity.

If you've ever made choices out of fear, lack, or limitation, whether in love, money, health, or belief in yourself, this one is for you. Nicole invites you to reflect, release, and start moving like abundance is already yours. It's time to detox the lie of scarcity and live like there's more than enough. Because there is.

He shares deep excitement for Bitcoin treasury companies and how they might be the gateway for TradFi capital to enter Bitcoin at scale. We also dive deep into the evolutionary roots of money and how the innate human drive for scarcity laid the groundwork for the concept of money, civilization itself, and ultimately Bitcoin as the perfection of scarcity. ––– Offers & Discounts ––– Theya is the world's simplest Bitcoin self-custody solution.
