In this episode of The Entrepreneurial You, Heneka Watkis-Porter welcomes leadership expert and best-selling author Kevin Wayne Johnson to explore the power of servant leadership. With a career that bridges corporate strategy and faith-driven values, Kevin shares how leading with patience, empathy, and humility can transform organisations—and lives. From his deeply personal journey caring for his younger brother with a mental disability to answering a prophetic call to ministry, Kevin's leadership style is grounded in compassion and purpose. If you're ready to lead by lifting others, this episode will challenge, inspire, and empower you to step into a more meaningful version of leadership. Servant Leadership: Leading With the Heart Kevin introduces the core of servant leadership as a philosophy centred on serving first. He explains that leadership isn't about commanding attention or holding authority—it's about uplifting those around you, offering hope, and providing real support. His journey began at home, where caring for his younger brother shaped his outlook. It continued into the workplace, where he combined corporate leadership with faith-based principles, building trust, collaboration, and lasting impact. Heneka and Kevin both agree: the best leaders are those who put people before power. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • What servant leadership really means in modern business • How to balance authority with humility and empathy • Why faith plays a critical role in leadership decisions • How to build trust and connection through authentic conversations • The value of storytelling in humanising leadership • Why leading with energy and purpose drives real impact Whether you're leading a team, building a business, or shaping your community, Kevin's wisdom will guide you to lead with courage, character, and compassion. Tune in now—and don't forget to share this episode with a fellow leader who leads from the heart. COMMUNITY CONNECTION: Now it's time for our Community Connection segment!

Introducing Willie Whit: The Mnemonic Marine DetectiveFor GB developing novel, "The Greater Portland Crab Caper," let us establish Willie Whit (AKA GB) as a sharp, memory-powered Marine Crime Special Investigating Detective specializing in International Espionage. These mnemonics are designed to highlight his unique abilities, drawing inspiration from his mastery of the Magnetic Memory Method.Willie The Whit: The "W.H.I.T." Acronym:Water Heavy Intelligence & Tactics: This mnemonic exemplifies Willie's extraordinary mental prowess, indicating his deep, heavy intelligence in maritime environments and his strategic, tactical mind. It suggests he's not just a detective, but a master of the watery domain with unparalleled mental acuity.Mental Image: Picture Willie with a compass in one hand and a fishing net in the other, but the net is made of glowing, interconnected mental pathways, symbolizing his intelligence and tactical planning. His eyes gleam with profound understanding, reflecting the vastness of the ocean he navigates both physically and mentally.The "M.C.S.I.D." Acrostic:Marine Crimes Systematically Investigated by Deduction: This expands on his title, emphasizing his methodical approach to solving complex cases on the high seas.Mental Image: Envision Willie meticulously examining a ship's logbook, but the words on the page are transforming into vivid, three-dimensional memory palace rooms, each holding a piece of evidence.The "I.E." Visual Link:Infiltrating Espionage: A simple, powerful visual.Mental Image: See Willie, not just observing, but literally "infiltrating" a shadowy, international network. He's not just breaking codes; he's mentally stepping into the minds of spies, using his memory techniques to anticipate their next move. Perhaps he's wearing a trench coat made of rippling water.These mnemonics illustrate how Willie uses his memory training to crack cases:The "Crab Claw" Grasp:Concept: Willie uses the powerful, precise action of a crab's claw as a mental metaphor for how he "grasps" and secures disparate pieces of evidence. Each piece of information is mentally "pinched" and stored securely in his memory palace.Mental Image: Imagine a giant, glowing crab claw snapping shut on a tiny, intricate clue (like a microchip or a coded message), then placing it gently into a specific, labeled compartment within Willie's mental "memory boat."The "Tide Table" Timeline:Concept: Just as tide tables predict the ebb and flow of the ocean, Willie uses a mental "tide table" to sequence events, predict patterns, and recall the exact timing of critical occurrences in a case. High tide might represent a major event, low tide a subtle shift.Mental Image: Visualize a vast, illuminated tide chart stretching across the ocean. As Willie walks along it, specific facts and events light up at their precise chronological points, revealing the flow of the crime.The "Lighthouse Loci" Network:Concept: Every lighthouse along the Maine coast (and beyond, for international cases) serves as a distinct "memory loci" or "memory palace" location. Each lighthouse holds specific information about international contacts, spy networks, or classified operations.Mental Image: See a series of iconic lighthouses, each with a different national flag flying from its top, or a different secret agent's face appearing in its light beam. Willie can "travel" between these lighthouses in his mind to access interconnected intelligence.Introducing Willie Whit: The Memory Detective of the Seas,#CrimeNovel,#EspionageThriller,#GrandpaBill,#BrainTraining,#MnemonicMaster,#CoastalMysteries,#NewCharacter,#MindEngines,#TheMemoryEngine (especially after the workshop!),#Anthony Metivier Inspired,#NovelInProgress,#PortlandMaine,#CrabCaper,Willie Whit's Core Identity Mnemonics:Willie Whit's Magnetic Memory Method in Action: Introducing Willie Whit: Willie Whit & The Crab Caper:

In this episode of The Entrepreneurial You, Heneka Watkis-Porter sits down with publishing industry veteran Michele DeFilippo, founder of 1106 Design. With over 50 years in the book publishing world, Michele brings a wealth of knowledge on how authors can take control of their publishing journey, avoid scams, and profit from their passion. She breaks down the evolution of self-publishing, revealing how independent authors can compete with traditional publishers—and win—by maintaining ownership, setting industry-standard quality, and being smart about their choices. Whether you're a first-time writer or a seasoned author, Michele's guidance provides a blueprint for building a successful, scam-free publishing experience. The Power of Self-Publishing: Profit, Control & Protection Michele is clear: self-publishing isn't just an alternative—it's a business decision. Authors can maintain creative control, keep more of their earnings, and bring their books to market without signing away their rights. But with this freedom comes responsibility. Michele warns against shady hybrid publishers that charge high production fees and still claim a share of your royalties. Her advice? If you're paying for the work, own the outcome—including your files, your ISBNs, and your book's future. Heneka echoes the importance of being informed, noting how many aspiring authors fall victim to scams due to lack of publishing knowledge. Competing With Traditional Publishing: Yes, You Can Michele debunks the myth that self-published books are inferior. With platforms like Amazon KDP and IngramSpark, and a focus on professional-quality design, editing, and typesetting, indie authors can match—and often exceed—the quality of traditional publishers. The key? Following industry standards and never cutting corners. “Readers don't care how a book is published,” Michele says, “only that it's well done.” She urges authors to purchase their own ISBNs through Bowker, which allows them to retain full control over the book in all its formats—eBook, paperback, or hardback. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • How to avoid scams and bad deals in the publishing industry • Why self-publishing can be more profitable and empowering than traditional routes • How to meet traditional publishing standards on your own • Why owning your ISBNs and production files matters • Smart marketing tactics for positioning your book as a business tool • The truth about bestseller programs—and what really drives book success This episode is a must-listen for any aspiring author ready to publish with confidence, clarity, and control. Tune in, take notes, and share it with someone who dreams of becoming a published writer—without the pitfalls. COMMUNITY CONNECTION: Now it's time for our Community Connection segment!

Cruise ships might look all shiny and glamorous, but there are hidden parts you'll never see unless you know where to look. Beneath the fancy restaurants and pools, there are whole maze-like areas just for crew members. Some ships even have secret morgues and jails tucked away in the lower decks. There are also hidden maintenance tunnels, storage rooms, and places where broken furniture and supplies get stashed. It's basically like a whole secret city operating underneath the vacation fun. Next time you're on a cruise, just remember — there's a lot more going on behind the scenes than you realize!

We tend to notice big things: the highest skyscrapers, the biggest shark, the largest bridges, the tallest giraffes. We notice these things and speak about them. However, everything is better understood in comparison: the tiniest things are amazing in their size too. And the bigger the difference between the biggest and the smallest thing of its type is, the cooler. Our world is a place full of varieties, after all! For example, the world's biggest shark is the whale shark. Slow-moving and filter-feeding, this calm giant can grow as long as 10 adults lined up! Or how about the biggest ship ever built: the Symphony of the Seas cruise ship. It could easily transport 8 and a half Statues of Liberty, 15 and a half Brooklyn Bridges, or 20 and a half Eiffel Towers. The ship is as long as 12 blue whales!

When the societal and cultural pressures on young, Single Apostolic men are unrealistically high, the risk of them fading from the Church increases. Is the number of single 35-50 year-old women disproportionately higher than the number of available men in that range, and if so, what is causing us to lose our young men on the cusp of starting Apostolic families? In this episode, Megan and Steven scratch the surface of a big question: what is happening to our men, and how to we help? 2024 UPCI Stats Booklet is available here: https://upci.org/stats/ Our first summer flash sale starts Memorial Weekend!

Acts 27 tells the tale of a fierce storm, a fragile ship, and frightened sailors. But in the middle of the storm stands the steady faith of a man who trusts in the one who is the Sovereign of the Seas. This chapter contains incredible detail about one specific event, and yet we discover truths here to help us navigate many different kinds of events in life: unexpected outcomes, stormy trials, and even shipwrecks we may endure. Whether you find yourself in the middle of a storm or resting between them, I want to remind you of three truths about God you can cling in every season.

 Bich Tran, senior fellow at Verve Research, adjunct fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, and nonresident fellow at We Protect our Seas, discusses Vietnam's strategies at navigating geopolitical turmoil, while the country celebrates fifty years since its 1975 reunification. Why is the country rapidly increasing and intensifying its diplomatic ties around the world? Can it overcome the challenges and cement its place as Asia's next economic powerhouse, as the government is hoping for? This episode is from Asia Society Switzerland's STATE OF ASIA podcast, bringing you exclusive, engaging conversations with leading minds on issues that shape Asia and affect us all.

Why do our attempts to control uncertainty often leave us feeling more adrift? What if our greatest source of stress could become our deepest well of creativity? Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and two decades of experience across advertising and venture capital, Dessy T. Levinson offers a radical reframing of how we relate to intensity. From Overwhelm to Flow: Sailing the Seas of Self with Courage, Meaning, and Resilience (Crate Mind, 2025) reveals how our nervous system actually processes complexity-and how understanding this transforms our relationship with uncertainty. Through intimate stories and cutting-edge research, the book introduces CRATE-a framework that combines cognitive insight with emotional intelligence to build lasting resilience. At its core, this book challenges our default response to overwhelm. Rather than trying to eliminate intensity or bypass emotion, we learn to welcome these experiences as portals to deeper understanding. Whether you're a founder navigating startup chaos, a leader building psychological safety for your team, or simply someone seeking to understand why your emotions feel like they're steering the ship, you'll discover practical tools for charting a new course. The journey unfolds in three parts. First, we dive into the science of how our minds and emotions actually work, discovering why traditional approaches to managing stress often backfire. Next, we explore the CRATE framework-Clarity, Regulation, Agency, Trust, and Energy-learning how to transform these insights into practical tools for navigating complexity. Finally, we discover how personal transformation extends beyond the individual, creating ripples that enhance our relationships, teams, and communities. More than just another self-help manual or management guide, this is an invitation to remember what we've always known but perhaps forgotten: that our struggles become our strengths when we learn to sail with, rather than against, the seas of our nature.

A review of Royal Caribbean's Voyager of the Seas during spring break 2025. Staff writer Richard Simms has this week's cruise news. Captain Murray, Port Director of Port Canaveral drops by to share the big changes happening at one of the world's busiest cruise ports. 

Do you know there are millions of metric tons of plastic waste and microplastics floating in our oceans? This impacts both the fish and ultimately the food we consume. According to the EPA,  “Plastic particles are generally the most abundant type of debris encountered in the marine environment, with estimates suggesting that 60% to 80% of marine debris is plastic, and more than 90% of all floating debris particles are plastic.” Dr. Marcus Eriksen is on the show today to discuss the DVD “Our Synthetic Seas,” which covers the total issue about plastic and the garbage found in our seas and especially the problem of disappearing sea life as fish are now eating plastic, waste, debris, and more dangerous materials. Marcus is currently the Executive Director of the 5 Gyres Institute. He received his Ph.D. in Science Education from the University of Southern California in 2003, months before embarking on a 2000-mile, 5-month journey down the Mississippi River on a homemade raft of plastic bottles. His experience on the river led to a career studying the ecological impacts of plastic marine pollution, which has included 8 expeditions sailing 25,000 miles through all 5 subtropical gyres to discover new garbage patches of plastic pollution in the Southern Hemisphere and beyond. With an affinity for rafting, his most recent adventure sent him and a colleague across the Pacific Ocean from California to Hawaii on a homemade raft floating on 15,000 plastic bottles and a Cessna airplane fuselage as a cabin. The journey, 2,600 miles in 88 days, brought tremendous attention to the plastic pollution issue.   Info: Algalita.org and MarcusEriksen.com.

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob's 223rd lesson on Pokémon biology. In today's lesson, we will be discussing Remoraid: the Jet Pokémon. This cute little water type is known for shooting jets of water out of its mouth - a real spitter! With its toned and mighty abs, Remoraid can shoot Pokémon out of the air from over 300 feet away. This pinpoint precision has granted Remoraid the title of “Sniper of the Seas”. Talk about a flex.

Join Heneka Watkis-Porter, the #JamaicanPodcastQueen, in this insightful episode of The Entrepreneurial You, as she welcomes Pete Mohr—exit strategist, Kolbe-certified coach, and founder of Simplifying Entrepreneurship. With over 20 years of experience in building, scaling, and selling businesses, Pete helps entrepreneurs reclaim their time, build strong teams, and create systems that allow businesses to thrive independently. With over 400 million small businesses worldwide, and only 20% surviving beyond five years, Pete shares why many entrepreneurs get stuck in the operator role and what it truly takes to transition into true business ownership. Understanding Business Value and Financials Pete explains why clean financials are the key to long-term business success. He sheds light on common exit planning myths, such as overestimating business value and assuming that a business can be sold at any time. He introduces the concept of Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE) and emphasizes how understanding your contracts, team, and financials is crucial to becoming “exit ready.” Team Dynamics with the Kolbe Assessment Heneka and Pete discuss the Kolbe Assessment, a tool that helps leaders build more effective teams by understanding conative strengths—how people naturally take action. Pete explains how aligning team roles with Kolbe profiles can reduce micromanagement and boost productivity, especially during times of growth or exit transitions. Pete's 5 P's + Promotion for Business Growth Pete shares his signature 5 P's Framework—Promise, Product, Process, People, Profit—along with a new 6th P: Promotion. This model helps entrepreneurs create transferable systems that lead to long-term scalability and success. Heneka resonates with this approach and shares her vision for empowering business owners to step into a more strategic, visionary role. Planning for Continuity and Unpredictable Risks Pete highlights that 50% of businesses are sold out of necessity—due to death, divorce, disability, or other external factors. He stresses the importance of preparing for business continuity risks and not waiting until it's too late to start strategizing for exit and succession planning. COMMUNITY CONNECTION: In this segment, I invite our community to share your reviews, questions, feedback, ect to engage with us.

Vacations are supposed to be carefree—a time to disconnect from stress and reconnect with loved ones. But for the Bradley family, a Caribbean cruise aboard Rhapsody of the Seas became the start of a nightmare. Just three days into their trip, 23-year-old Amy Lynn Bradley vanished without a trace. No signs of struggle. No clear answers. How does someone disappear from a ship filled with thousands of people? And why, decades later, are there still whispers that Amy may be alive? This is the story of a young woman who set sail with her family… and never came home.

Cornelius Vanderbilt was a force in 19th century America, playing a pivotal role in transitioning the U.S. economy from rural mercantilism to industrial corporate capitalism. Vanderbilt didn't just compete—he dominated; and didn't just dominate one industry—he conquered three: ferries, steamships, and railroads. He understood that power lay in controlling infrastructure and not just operating within it. His cutthroat tactics were both feared and admired but his vision for what the economy could be was undeniable.  This is the story of how Vanderbilt turned calculated aggression into an art form, how he endured more pain than his competitors, and how he built systems that outlived him.  Learn the mindset, strategies, and brutal lessons behind his dominance; the game of business hasn't changed as much as you think.  (02:20) Prologue (05:12) PART 1 - The Dutch Inheritance (08:21) The Young Boatman (12:30) Capitalizing on War (15:27) General Merchant of the Sea (19:29) PART 2 - The Meeting That Changed Everything (21:48) The Steamboat Wars (24:12) The Anti-Monopoly Crusader (27:06) The Rise of the Commodore (32:08) The Monopolist's Nemesis (34:58) PART 3 - Sole Control (37:28) Prometheus (40:18) Star of the West (44:06) Europe and Betrayal (48:15) The Independent Line (50:13) PART 4 - The Commodore's Return (51:55) Gray Eyed Man of Destiny (53:36) The Conspiracy (54:41) Finishing Walker (55:54) Conquering the Seas (58:13) America's Wealthiest Citizen (60:47) PART 5 - Vanderbilt's Railroad Dominance (01:01:59) The Path to Confrontation (01:03:37) The Breaking Point (01:04:43) The Power to Punish (01:06:32) The Collapse (01:07:50) The Silent Conquest (01:08:57) The Consolidation (01:10:54) The Legacy (01:12:15) FINAL PART - Vanderbilt: The Architect of Modern American Business (01:14:19) Reflections This episode is for informational purposes only and most of the research came from reading The First Tycoon by T.J.
