    For some, this is the long a waited topic, conversation, that many feel represents their experience most accurately.  It's for the people who have endured the often unnecessary work of getting started with the Ketogenic diet only to have it become a thoroughly frustrating time and effort. For others, this might be too ‘granular' in terms of talking about the specific variables required to create a successful outcome. For me it has become a realization in my ‘quest' of how to have Keto work for everyone (barring specific medical conditions). The realization is that living in a progressively more unhealthy world we have to think about what it takes to be truely healthy in a different light.  Please join me in this quick review of some of the main obstacles to achieving great results with the Ketogenic lifestyle. I'm sure some of this will apply to your situation.Buy C8Keto MCT Oil on AmazonOur Facebook Group Keto NaturopathVisit our website for more podcasts, recipes, and informationUntil next time, Dr. Karl

    Rethinking the Scarcity Mindset

    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. It's designed to help you shift from fear to faith as you grow in your trust of God's provision. Order a copy or place a bulk order today at FaithFi.com/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.

    Drama sells in the box office, newsstands, social media feeds and more. It draws an audience because it is interesting. Yet, because drama often plays on relational conflict, it is painful. Because we are relational beings, we unfortunately find ourselves too often on drama's stage. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Craig Stickling peels back the layers of drama and helps us escape its trap. Show Notes: Drama defined:   Interesting relational or situational conflict.  What is drama's ill effect?  It can provoke us to poor behavior.  It can divide relationships.  What elements does drama play on?  Drama draws an audience.  Drama grasps for sides to be drawn.  Drama is fueled by unregulated emotion.  Drama tempts us to be disingenuous about the truth.  How do I know if I induce drama?  I like the exhilaration of conflict.  I like attention.  I am easily offended and sensitive.  I don't regulate my emotion.  How can I calm the drama?  Don't gossip.  Regulate your emotion.  Resist impulsivity for patient, measured responses.  Seek the whole truth.  Keep healthy boundaries.

He explains how focusing solely on what God can do for us can lead to an unhealthy obsession with healing, rather than a true relationship with Him. Jeremiah encourages us to pursue God for who He is, knowing that when we seek Him first, everything we need—including healing—flows from that relationship. If you've ever struggled with disappointment or felt distant from God in your healing journey, this episode will help you shift your focus and find true peace.

    Have you ever felt too far gone… too unworthy… too broken to even come close to God? How does it make you feel when you're surrounded by so many who you might think, “Have it all together”? On Sunday July 6, 2025, were are beginning a new series called, “Seek, and Ye SHALL Find” – In this Part 1 we confront the lie often surfacing in our minds, that hinders or even prevents us from reaching heaven, when we so often, so desperately need to.  We tackle the enemies tactics head-on with the truth of Scripture. From the desperate cry of Zacchaeus as an outcast, to the humble cry of the publican in the temple, we uncover what it means to truly seek God—not casually, but with the kind of hunger AND fervency that pushes past our shame, social status, and self-doubts. God isn't hiding from the hurting—He's waiting for the heart that seeks Him.

    In this message, Pastor Emlen Bailey shares on  Jesus' invitation to ask, seek, and knock—a divine call to persistent, expectant prayer and wholehearted pursuit of God.➡️ ASK – God invites us to boldly request what we need. Sometimes, unanswered prayers are actually His mercy protecting us from what we think we want.➡️ SEEK – Like the bleeding woman or Naaman, miracles often follow the ones willing to investigate, press in, and surrender their pride. What are you willing to give up to see breakthrough?➡️ KNOCK – Real faith keeps knocking. With shameless audacity, with wrestling perseverance like Jacob, we knock until doors open.This is more than a formula—it's an invitation into deeper relationship with a good Father who longs to give good gifts to His children.

    Have you ever left a church service feeling like something was missing? You heard a nice message and sang some songs, but on the drive home, you're left wondering, "Is this all there is?" Today, we're tearing down the modern, passive model of church and rediscovering God's design for His Ekklesia—the called-out assembly. It was never meant to be a social club for comfort, but a spiritual armory and command center for a war we've forgotten we are fighting.Key Takeaways:The Problem with Passive Faith: Many modern church gatherings have unintentionally trained believers to be a passive audience, consuming a religious product rather than being equipped as spiritual warriors.The Battleship vs. The Cruise Ship: We must shift our perspective from the "cruise ship" model (focused on comfort and entertainment) to the "battleship" model (focused on readiness, duty, and spiritual warfare).The Early Church Model: The early church in the book of Acts met "from house to house" (Acts 2:46), not as a retreat from the world, but as a strategic base to launch into it.The Four Pillars of Spiritual Combat Training (Acts 2:42):Apostles' Doctrine: Strategic understanding of the King and His Kingdom.Fellowship (Koinonia): Forging unbreakable unit cohesion and bearing one another's burdens (Galatians 6:2).Breaking of Bread: A covenant renewal and a declaration of allegiance to Christ.The Prayers: Direct communication with headquarters, praying for boldness and strategic objectives (Acts 4:29).The Ultimate Purpose: The gathering is meant to result in sending. As in Acts 13:2, the Holy Spirit gives direct, actionable commands to the body of believers.Four Practical Marching Orders:Radically change your mindset from being served to being equipped.Seek the Acts 13 model in small, focused groups.Practice being an active contributor in every gathering.Debrief with other believers to ensure the mission translates to action.Call to Action:If this episode stirred something in your spirit, please share it!

She explains, “I've learned so much about finance, securities law… and I feel like my superpower is bringing it down to a level of clarity for people.” Her passion stems from a desire to make the world of finance less opaque and intimidating, especially for those who lack traditional financial knowledge or access to resources.Illustrative Story:Jenny's superpower shone when she helped a worker co-op in Boston called CERO raise capital for a composting business. Comprised of highly disadvantaged individuals, the co-op needed funding for a truck but wanted to retain worker control. Jenny structured an offering of non-voting equity, allowing the workers to remain in charge while raising several hundred thousand dollars.

With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

    What do you do when your child refuses to eat? When food, health, and body image turn into a dangerous battleground? In this deeply moving episode, Justin and Kylie unpack the devastating reality of eating disorders — with insights from a brave young woman who overcame anorexia, her incredible family, and a specialist psychologist who shares life-saving advice for parents. KEY POINTS 90% of teens have negative thoughts about their bodies; eating disorders affect far too many young people, especially girls. Social media and “diet culture” fuel body dissatisfaction, validation-seeking, and dangerous habits. Even the most loving parents can have children who perceive themselves as unlovable — perception is reality for struggling kids. Parents play a vital role: showing up consistently and lovingly is powerful even when it feels unnoticed. Warning signs to watch for include: Loose, baggy clothing (to hide weight loss or from skin sensitivity) Avoiding family meals, picking at food, or excessive “health consciousness” Withdrawing socially, prioritizing exercise obsessively Personality changes, irritability, especially around meals Parents need extraordinary patience, kindness, and firmness — staying at the table for hours if necessary, showing the eating disorder who’s stronger. Separate “the eating disorder voice” from your child’s real self in your interactions. It’s less about finding the “cause” and more about focusing on healing. The Butterfly Foundation (butterfly.org.au) is an excellent resource for specialist help. QUOTE OF EPISODE #1299 "You need to show that eating disorder that you're stronger than it, more patient than it, and you will sit there as long as it takes — because your child is worth fighting for." — Christine Gregory RESOURCES MENTIONED The Butterfly Foundation — national support for eating disorders Parental Guidance episode (stream on 9Now) Happy Families articles and resources on connection and body image (happyfamilies.com.au) ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS 1. Watch for early warning signs and trust your instincts — you know your child best.2. Be patient, kind, and firm — sit with your child at meals and don’t let the eating disorder win.3. Separate your child’s identity from the illness; speak to your child, not to the disorder.4. Don’t obsess over what “caused” it — focus on healing and connection.5. Seek professional help early through organizations like the Butterfly Foundation.6. Show up consistently: being present every day sends a powerful message of love and commitment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Psalm 27 Audio Reading is from the World English Bible (WEB) translation on Audio Treasure (link).SCRIPTURE: Psalm 27 – Prayer of David (NIV).1 The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid? 2 When the wicked advance against me to devour me, it is my enemies and my foes who will stumble and fall. 3 Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident. 4 One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple. 5 For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock. 6 Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me; at his sacred tent I will sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the Lord. 7 Hear my voice when I call, Lord; be merciful to me and answer me. 8 My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, Lord, I will seek. 9 Do not hide your face from me, do not turn your servant away in anger; you have been my helper. Do not reject me or forsake me, God my Savior. 10 Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me. 11 Teach me your way, Lord; lead me in a straight path because of my oppressors. 12 Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes, for false witnesses rise up against me, spouting malicious accusations. 13 I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. 14 Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

    A conversation with farmer Benedikt Bösel, farmer and regen agronomist Matteo Mazzola and Philippe Birker, co-founder of Climate Farmers. We need regenerative agronomists. Because let's face it — most farmers trust their agronomist, and the chances that their agronomist is trained in regen are pretty small. We're moving from the first group of super ambitious, entrepreneurial, and slightly rebellious farmers who have made the transition, to a larger group who want to transition but can take less risk and will need support. So, who do they call when they want to start their transition? Current agriculture schools for agronomists are still very much focused on extractive, highly input- driven agriculture. Farmers often want a checklist and a protocol to "go regen" — but it might be more about asking uncomfortable questions.So how do we go about changing that? This is three-part conversation today with:Philippe Birker, who is setting up the Regen Agronomist Training in Europe, a 6-months intensive training program designed to equip agronomists with practical and theoretical knowledge in regenerative agriculture, with the first pilot happening this year.Benedikt Bösel, farmer at Gut&Bösel, whose farm will serve as a training farm, while sharing his experience with getting help taking his first steps into regen.Matteo Mazzola, regenerative farmer at Iside, who also works with many others supporting their transition.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

In this episode of Superpowers for Good, guest Kevin Shird shared a profound perspective on how mental health challenges contribute to poor decision-making and the cycle of incarceration. Kevin, a professor, author, and advocate, is no stranger to the justice system, having experienced it firsthand. Now, he's using his story to create a roadmap for change.Kevin explained that unresolved trauma often plays a central role in the repetitive cycles of poor choices many individuals make post-incarceration. “Poor choices are actually tied to unresolved trauma,” he stated, adding, “when trauma is unresolved, there's a propensity for continuing this hamster wheel of just poor choices after poor choices.” His insights shed light on a key issue: the need for better mental health care within prisons to address these deeply rooted issues before individuals reenter society.Kevin shared the heartbreaking story of a friend he met while incarcerated—a man who initially served a short sentence but, after his release, committed a double murder and now faces life in prison. The tragedy, Kevin emphasized, could have been prevented with better mental health support during his friend's incarceration. “Hurt people hurt people,” Kevin explained. “When people aren't well... sometimes their struggles land in our laps.”Kevin advocates for placing licensed clinical social workers inside prisons as a proactive solution. He pointed out that 95% of incarcerated individuals will eventually return to society, becoming our neighbors, coworkers, and community members. By providing mental health support behind prison walls, he believes we can reduce recidivism, enhance public safety, and foster healthier communities.This episode reinforced the urgent need for systemic reform to prioritize mental health care in the criminal justice system. Kevin's work, including his book A Life for a Life, serves as both a call to action and a source of hope. Through his advocacy, he's demonstrating how addressing trauma can transform lives and break cycles of harm.By highlighting these issues, Kevin reminded us that change is possible—and it starts with seeing the humanity in everyone.tl;dr:Kevin Shird shares how unresolved trauma drives recidivism and advocates for better mental health care.He highlights the importance of placing licensed social workers in prisons to support incarcerated individuals.Kevin recounts a tragic story to illustrate how unaddressed trauma leads to devastating consequences.He explains his superpower of authentic connection and how storytelling fosters healing and understanding.Kevin encourages vulnerability to build deeper relationships and drive meaningful change in the world.How to Develop Authentic Connection As a SuperpowerKevin Shird's superpower lies in his ability to authentically connect with people through storytelling. “I pride myself on just being able to build real relationships,” Kevin explained. He emphasized the importance of “removing the mask” to connect with others on a deeper, human level. By sharing his vulnerabilities and personal experiences, Kevin creates bonds that inspire healing and understanding. “Everybody has a story,” he said, reminding us that even when our struggles differ, they are all significant and worthy of empathy.Kevin recounted how sharing a vulnerable story about his father's alcoholism in his first book led to powerful connections with readers. Despite initial embarrassment, he wrote about his father's addiction, and the response was overwhelming. Readers reached out to share their own experiences with addicted family members, often in tears. This demonstrated how his authenticity in storytelling inspired others to confront and heal from their own struggles.Tips for Developing Authentic Connection:Remove the emotional “mask” and embrace vulnerability.Recognize that everyone has a story, even if it differs from yours.Focus on building genuine human connections by listening and empathizing.Use storytelling to create shared experiences and inspire others.By following Kevin's example and advice, you can make authentic connection a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

    We conclude this series this week with Part 3. To make it easier for you to remember the outline for the last two weeks we've included all three weeks below.  Part 1 It is hard. Life is busy all by itself, but caring for aging parents doubles or triples the load. Some parents are pretty much on their own all the way through life, but others need lots of help and care.   As much as possible, plan ahead before care is needed. Talk with all the family who is involved or who will be. If possible, purchase insurance plans that will help. Perhaps pay for them as a family. Secure wills and power of attorneys and bank accounts and all that while it can be done easily. Have a plan as to who is in charge and who will help and how it will be done. Be prepared for misunderstanding and difficult responses Remember truth when accusations are made Remember truth when challenges occur   Part 2 It needs to be a WE affair and not a ME affair Get everyone involved Brothers and sisters Typically best to give someone power of attorney Typically best to give someone the power of the money Aunts and uncles They can spend nights They can transport to appointments Sons and daughters If you parents live with you, the kids can help with them Spouse Communicate Prioritize On both sides The one who is care-giving needs love and understanding as they give to their parent The one who is married to the care-giver needs the same as they give to their spouse Everyone should get involved One person likely cannot do it by themselves Each person must shoulder some responsibility Make it a practical matter Prepare wisely Think ahead while the decision is easy Decide ahead of time as many things as possible Have a will Have a living will Have all information and important papers located and available Plan carefully Sit down with as many people as possible to make a plan Someone should be designated as the one who “takes-charge” Talk continually Keep everyone in the loop Keep everyone organized Perhaps use a group text morning and evening   Part 3              4.  Schedule specific responsibilities Living arrangements Driving arrangements Appointments Events Financial arrangements Know your limitations Some things can be done Some things cannot be done Some times you need a break Never allow yourself to feel guilty for taking a break when it is needed Some questions How do you handle difficult parents? Do the right thing The right thing is to keep caring The right thing may be to allow someone else to do the caring Do the hard thing You may have to choose a nursing home You many have to choose assisted living Allow someone to have veto power over your decisions? By that I mean limited veto power Limited by time (they can override for a set amount of time) How do you handle parents with whom you have little or no relationship? Prayerfully Pray about it Seek counsel as you pray Wisely If you have no relationship, you do not have to carry the burden of responsibility  If you have a damaged relationship, seek to make things right If you cannot make things right, you may need to allow others to serve as the care-giver and you serve as a helper . . .

    Today Eric emphasizes the ongoing nature of mastery in various aspects of life, from professional skills like sales to personal hobbies and relationships. He highlights that consistent practice and sustained effort are crucial for developing expertise, drawing parallels to athletic training and musical instrument proficiency. He and his coaching call group discuss how facing challenges, embracing vulnerability, and learning from peers accelerate growth, even when progress isn't linear. Eric advocates for a mindset of continuous improvement and active engagement to achieve and maintain mastery, underscoring that stagnation leads to a decline in skill. Key Takeaways: • Consistent effort and dedicated time are essential for achieving mastery. • Embrace repetition and continuous practice to develop and maintain skills. • Seek out and lean into challenging situations as opportunities for significant growth. • Continuously learn and adapt, understanding that growth may involve plateaus as well as surges. • Train with peers, share vulnerabilities, and embrace constructive criticism to accelerate your learning and mastery.   Resources: Contractor Sales Secrets: ContractorSalesSecrets.com Fitz Fish Ponds: Koi Trips Book A Call With Triplett: Call with Triplett The Pond Digger: https://theponddigger.com/ Atlantic-Oase: https://www.atlantic-oase.com/ Helix Pond Filtration: http://helixpondfiltration.com/ TWT Contractor Circle (Facebook Group): TWT Contractor Circle TWT Contractor Power Circle (Facebook Group): TWT Contractor Power Circle The Pond Digger Instagram: Instagram The Pond Digger Facebook: Facebook Train With Triplett TikTok: TikTok EasyPro Pond Products: https://easypro.com/  Pond Trade Magazine: https://www.pondtrademag.com/ MDM Pumps: https://mdminc.com/sequence/  2025 LCR Summit - Oct. 20-21 Louisville, KY: https://www.lcrmedianetwork.com/  PNW Custom: https://www.pnw-custom.com/

    Let's be honest—most men don't need more motivation.What we need is a real map. A battle-tested framework that'll wake us the hell up and walk us out of the fog of comfort, distraction, and passive living.That's what this episode is all about.I sat down with Rick Walker—entrepreneur, leader, and author of the new book 9 Steps to Build a Life of Meaning. Rick isn't just some mindset guru tossing around buzzwords. He's built companies with hundreds of employees, raised billions in capital, and helped create thousands of jobs. But what really makes him dangerous—in the best way—is what he's chosen to do with all that wisdom.This conversation is a straight-up call to arms. Rick breaks down the 9 essential steps that every man must walk if he wants to reclaim his mind, unlock his power, and finally live a life that means something. We talk generational pain, sacrifice, building legacy, and how to fight back against a world that wants men to stay weak, distracted, and small.This is one of those episodes you'll want to come back to again and again, especially when life hits.

    A family who’d lost touch with their son and brother Tyler received an urn that was said to contain his cremation ashes. Just twenty-two years old, he’d apparently died of a drug overdose. For years, Tyler had dealt with the effects of drug addiction and poor choices. But prior to the reported overdose, he’d been sober after spending time in a transitional housing facility and completing an addiction recovery program. Then authorities made a shocking discovery—Tyler was actually alive! They’d mistaken him for another young man who’d died of an overdose. Later, after being reunited with family and reflecting on the death of the other young man, Tyler said, “That could have been me.” The Israelites once learned of their death—though they were very much alive. In a song of mourning, the prophet Amos sang these words to God’s rebellious people: “Fallen is Virgin Israel, never to rise again” (Amos 5:2). These words must have gotten their attention—they were dead?! But the prophet also spoke these comforting words from God Himself: “Seek me and live” and “Seek good . . . . Then the Lord God almighty will be with you” (vv. 4, 14). Though Israel was dead in their sins against God, He invited them to turn to Him and find life. As we deal with our sin, let’s confess it and bring it to the one who loves us and forgives us. God lovingly leads us from death to life (John 5:24).
