Podcasts about separating

In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Steve Riley brings back financial behaviorist and pricing strategist Jacquette Timmons to tackle the question that makes even experienced attorneys hesitate: "What should I charge?" When your firm is busy, but margins feel thin, pricing often isn't "wrong," it's inconsistent because the logic underneath it is unclear. You're working hard, saying yes to work, and staying booked, but the income doesn't match the effort. Jacquette challenges the common advice to "charge what you're worth" and explains why tying fees to your identity creates stress, guilt, and second-guessing. Instead, she reframes pricing as a business decision: you are not your offer, and your fees should reflect the value and outcomes your services create not your personal worth. She also introduces a practical way to diagnose what's really happening in your firm: treat your services like an offer portfolio. When you look at each service as an asset, you can see which offers truly function as profit centers, which drain time and energy, and whether your marketing dollars are pushing the work that's least profitable. If you want law firm pricing that supports profit, future capacity and a sustainable life, this episode offers a clear, human-centered reset. In this episode, you will hear: Why "charge what you're worth" undermines pricing confidence Separating personal identity from business offers Viewing services as a portfolio instead of a menu Average revenue per case vs actual profit per case How pricing decisions shape marketing spend and client mix The financial, personal, and emotional layers of every pricing conversation Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

How leaders relate to money, success, and stress rarely starts with them.In this opening episode of 2026, Julian Hayes II sits down with Ruschelle Khanna to explore how inherited trauma, family systems, and unspoken money scripts quietly shape your decision-making, health, and legacy—especially among high achievers.Ruschelle shares how trauma can be passed down biologically and emotionally, why many ambitious leaders tie self-worth to their achievement, and how unresolved family patterns show up as burnout, overwork, scarcity, or emotional rigidity around money. Together, they unpack what it means to build intergenerational well-being, not just financial success, and how leaders can shift from fear-based drive to compassionate, sustainable performance.This is a grounded, honest conversation about wealth, health, identity, and what leaders unknowingly pass on, unless they choose to do the work.— Episode Chapter Big Ideas (timing may not be exact) —0:00 – Introduction and reflections on growing up in the 90s2:45 – The illusion of danger, media narratives, and childhood freedom4:45 – Misconceptions about West Virginia and cultural stereotypes7:55 – What “inherited trauma” actually means9:55 – When issues don't resolve despite years of self-work11:30 – How inherited trauma can shape identity and career paths13:25 – Achievement, conditional love, and high-performing families15:54 – Self-compassion as a missing skill for ambitious leaders16:55 – Why money is one of the hardest topics to talk about18:00 – Shame, security, and the body's relationship with money22:10 – Wealth, poverty, and the mental prisons on both ends23:37 – Family businesses, trauma, and what actually breaks success25:00 – Debunking the “three generations” wealth myth27:38 – Money scripts, emotional security, and social capital29:54 – Separating self-worth from net worth—without losing drive33:16 – Building intergenerational well-being through compassion35:19 – Fear-based identities and the inability to feel safe37:12 – Creating a family mission, values, and shared culture40:40 – How trauma awareness changes leadership style42:07 – Rapid fire: motherhood, training, legacy, and curiosity48:24 – A final question for leaders building wealth and well-being— Key Quotes from Ruschelle Khanna — “We're often operating from coping mechanisms, not our true selves.”“Money sits at the level of security—and shame lives there too.”“Legacy is living fully in the present so it echoes into the future.”“Before asking how wealthy you want to be, ask how satisfied you are right now.”— Connect With Ruschelle Khanna —Website: https://www.lifestyleforlegacy.com/ Ancestral Healing Center: https://www.ancestralhealingcenter.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ruschelle-khanna-lifestyle-for-legacy/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ancestralhealingcenter — Connect with Julian and Executive Health —LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/julianhayesii/Ready to take your health, leadership, and performance to the next level?

In this second Q&A episode of 2026, I'm joined once again by Joe Bailey for a raw, honest, and deeply practical conversation with men inside our Dad Edge Alliance. We tackle two of the most common—and emotionally charged—challenges dads face: navigating marriage when divorce feels like it's on the table, and learning when to step in (or step back) as parents with our kids.   Joe brings wisdom forged through failure, humility, and redemption as he shares lessons learned from three divorces and what it actually takes to rebuild trust, emotional safety, and leadership in marriage. We also dig into parenting—specifically how often we default to "no," how helicopter parenting robs kids of growth, and how learning to pause can transform our connection with our children. If you're a dad who wants to lead with ownership instead of ego, and presence instead of control, this episode is for you.     Timeline Summary  [0:00] Welcoming listeners to the second Q&A of 2026 with Joe Bailey [1:37] Live Q&A format with Alliance members on the call [2:03] Anonymous question: marriage arguments escalating and divorce being discussed [2:52] Joe shares his experience with three divorces and hard-earned lessons [3:49] Taking full ownership as the leader of the relationship [4:18] Winning the argument vs. winning your wife's heart [5:02] Separating identity from failure in marriage [5:21] Why agreement gives things power over your life [5:40] Emotional safety, being seen, and being heard [6:04] How your inner world creates your outer world [6:55] Why asking "What are you willing to do?" matters more than "Can we fix this?" [8:03] Leading with humility, apology, and commitment to growth [8:26] The importance of being coachable as a man and husband [9:35] Larry explains why the Dad Edge Alliance exists [10:37] More context: resentment and imbalance with kids and responsibilities [11:16] Why we're trained for careers—but not for marriage [12:15] Marriage compared to training and skill development [13:29] The mental load and resentment that silently builds in relationships [14:35] Larry shares his own wake-up moment with his wife [16:19] How to approach conversations with curiosity instead of defense [17:19] Expecting resistance and understanding trust rebuilds slowly [18:46] A real coaching story where separation was reversed after consistency [21:03] "Waiting for the other shoe to drop" and consistency over time [22:12] Second question: saying "no" too often to kids [23:12] Helicopter parenting and letting kids solve problems [24:27] Letting kids work it out unless safety is at risk [26:02] Stepping in when conflict becomes dangerous [28:16] Boys, aggression, and healthy outlets [29:45] Is saying "no" about safety—or convenience? [30:51] Searching for the "yes" and using delayed yeses [31:38] The day kids stop asking—and why it matters [32:16] How selfishness often drives our "no" [33:22] Episode wrap-up and directing listeners to the show notes     Five Key Takeaways   Marriage leadership starts with ownership, not blame or defensiveness.  Your inner world shapes your marriage, and emotional chaos creates relational chaos.  Trust is rebuilt through consistency over time, not quick fixes or intensity.  Kids grow through problem-solving, and dads don't need to jump in unless safety is at risk.  Saying "yes" whenever possible builds connection, while reflexive "no's" often come from selfishness or convenience.      Links & Resources Dad Edge Alliance (Apply & Book a Call): https://thedadedge.com/alliance Episode Show Notes & Resources: https://thedadedge.com/1426     Closing Remark If today's episode gave you clarity, hope, or a new way to lead at home, please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast. You don't have to white-knuckle marriage or fatherhood alone—brotherhood, humility, and consistency change everything.

Why This Episode Matters:This episode isn't about hacks, gear flexes, or shortcuts. It's about the internal work that makes a long creative life possible. Birocratic opens up about imposter syndrome, optimism, failure, discipline, and the systems he's built to protect his relationship with music.If you've ever felt behind, overwhelmed, scattered, or unsure whether you're doing “enough,” this conversation offers a grounded, human counterpoint to the pressure-filled narrative surrounding modern music careers.Who is Birocratic:Birocratic is a producer and artist known for warm, melodic, feel-good instrumentals that sit at the intersection of lofi, beat music, and instrumental pop. Beyond his catalog, he's a working musician in many forms: producer, bassist, engineer, mixing engineer, and collaborator. In this episode, we hear not just about his music, but how he thinks about building a life that can actually sustain creativity.What We Dive Into:* Being “the dumbest person in the room” and why that's a gift* Playing bass in a band after years as a solo producer* Developing your ear through listening, transcription, and real-time adaptation* Why recording yourself is one of the fastest learning tools* Optimism, accountability, and separating mistakes from identity* The concept of “personal, permanent, and pervasive” thinking* Journaling, reflection, and mental health as creative maintenance* Morning pages, voice memos, and nightly check-ins* Structure as a gateway to freedom and flow* Timers, non-zero days, and realistic consistency* Saying no, setting boundaries, and protecting creative energy* Collaboration versus solitude, and why both matter* Redefining success beyond milestones and external validationThree Key Takeaways:* Growth Lives in Discomfort: Putting yourself in rooms where you're less experienced can be humbling, but it's one of the fastest paths to real development. Being surrounded by people who are better than you isn't a failure. It's an opportunity.* Structure Protects Inspiration: Clean spaces, clear schedules, timers, and reflection aren't constraints. They're what make flow possible. When the basics are handled, your creativity has room to breathe.* Success Is a Series of Good Days: Success isn't one moment or metric. It's built from showing up, doing what you said you'd do, and ending the day feeling aligned. Stack enough of those days, and the bigger picture takes care of itself.Join the ProducerHead CommunityIf you're not subscribed yet, you'll get access to submit your released music for features, send works-in-progress for feedback, plus two free tools: The Invisible Instruments (a collection of ideas to help you in and out of the studio) and Sonic Stimulus Vol. 1 (a sample pack I made specifically for this community).

On this week's video episode, Dylan sits down with Mercedeh “MJ” Javid to talk about her return to TV with “The Valley: Persian Style”. Dylan and Mercedeh get into the name evolution, Persian pride, and why “The Valley: Persian Style” feels like a fresh chapter instead of Shahs reboot. Did Rihanna have something to do with it? MJ opens up about her life now, including her “modern separation” with Tommy and how they're still a family by design, down to living less than a minute apart. Plus, they also talk about new cast dynamics, the very real way logistics can mess up romance, and her ironic season on The Traitors.

When separated from cigarette smoke, it shows surprising anti-inflammatory and neurological potential.Summary:In this Metabolic Classroom mini lecture, Dr. Ben Bikman revisits the molecule nicotine—not as an endorsement to use it, but to explore its distinct effects when separated from harmful compounds in cigarettes.Contrary to popular belief, nicotine alone is not highly addictive; tobacco additives like pyrazines likely amplify the addiction seen in cigarettes. Dr. Bikman details nicotine's anti-inflammatory properties, particularly through activation of the alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, which may help conditions like ulcerative colitis, sepsis, and arthritis.Ben also explores its complex effects on metabolism—such as increased thermogenesis and fat oxidation—while warning of potential insulin resistance with sustained use.Lastly, he reviews fascinating clinical research suggesting therapeutic potential in conditions like ADHD, autism, Tourette's syndrome, and even Alzheimer's, all while emphasizing that nicotine, when separated from cigarette smoke, warrants more open scientific inquiry.References:For complete show notes and references, we invite you to become an Insider subscriber.

As God continues His creation, He does the work both of separating and filling. He separates the waters above from the waters below on the second day, and He separates the dry land and the seas on the third day. God fills the light and darkness from day one with the sun, moon, and stars on day four. God fills the expanse of day two with flying creatures on day five, and He fills the waters of day three with swimming creatures on day five. Throughout the account, God shows that He alone is the true God as He prepares His creation as a dwelling place for humanity.  Rev. Zelwyn Heide, pastor at St. Peter Lutheran Church in Hanover, ND and Zion Lutheran Church in New Salem, ND, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Genesis 1:6-23.  To learn more about St. Peter and Zion Lutheran churches, visit stpeterzion.org. “In the Beginning” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies Genesis. The first book of Moses sets the stage for God's entire story of salvation. As we learn the beginning of the story, God prepares us to receive the fulfillment of the story: Jesus Christ, the Offspring of the woman who has crushed our enemy's head.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

Separating fact from fear after the Packers' meaningless Week 18 loss to the Vikings—Ryan and the callers break down what actually matters heading into playoff football against the Bears. The phone lines lit up as fans processed watching backups get steamrolled, with Clayton Tune posting negative passing yards and the offense looking completely lost without Jordan Love. But here's what has callers surprisingly optimistic: Baron Sorrell and Collin Auver flashed serious potential, the run game gashed Minnesota's "elite" defense, and most importantly—nobody of consequence got hurt (prayers up for Bo Melton's knee). Callers debate whether LaFleur finally learned his lesson about resting starters, why the "rust factor" might be completely fake according to actual data, and whether Rashaan Gary deserves to lose snaps to hungrier depth players. The consensus? It's time to remember who we are, go into Chicago, and handle business against a Bears team that just collapsed against the Lions. One thing's certain—losing to Chicago in the playoffs is simply not an option. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Inside Voices: Separating Fact From Fear in Child Care Flu Season, Funding, and What Families Need to Know by WNHH Community Radio

If you've ever opened your banking app and felt your stomach drop — like the number on the screen said something about who you are — this episode is for you. Many of us have absorbed a quiet but destructive belief: that financial success equals personal value. That debt means you're irresponsible. That renting means you're behind. That earning less means you're not trying hard enough. And that belief doesn't just hurt emotionally — it shapes how we spend, save, work, and make decisions every day. In this episode, we pull that belief apart and put money back where it belongs. Your net worth is a number. It's data. It is not a moral scorecard, a personality test, or a measure of your worth as a human being. We talk about where this belief comes from, how it shows up as money shame, avoidance, overspending, comparison, and fear-based decision making, and the real cost of living this way — lost peace, strained relationships, and the constant feeling of never being enough. Then we get practical. I walk you through how to separate the math from the meaning, how to look at your finances without spiraling, how to set boundaries and say no without over-explaining, and how to build a sense of worth that isn't dependent on your bank balance, income, or credit score.

In this solo episode of the Create! Podcast, host Ekaterina Popova explores why maintaining a personal art practice is essential not only for artistic growth, but for mental and nervous system regulation, resilience, and overall well-being. Whether you are a professional artist navigating deadlines or a creative seeking to reconnect with your practice, this episode breaks down the neuroscience behind why our brains need art. Kat shares research-backed insights, practical studio strategies, and mindset shifts to help you build a sustainable creative routine, even with a busy life. This episode is both grounding and actionable, offering permission to create imperfectly and consistently, without pressure or performance.   Join the 100 Day Painting Challenge: https://www.paintwithkat.com/challenge   In This Episode, You Will Learn: Why art-making is a powerful tool for nervous system regulation. How creative flow quiets the inner critic and reduces anxiety. Why habit and process matter more than finished results. Simple ways to lower friction in your studio and make starting easier. How to separate the creator from the editor to protect your daily practice.   Key Takeaways: The Science of Art Research from Drexel University found that just 45 minutes of art-making led to a significant drop in cortisol levels for 75 percent of participants, regardless of skill or experience. Silencing the Inner Critic Entering a creative flow state—a concept popularized by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi—quiets the Default Mode Network (DMN), the part of the brain linked to rumination and self-judgment. The "Bad Art" Rule Strong bodies of work are built by allowing yourself to make "bad art" and prioritizing consistency over perfection. The focus should be on habit formation rather than a final product. Mise en Place for the Studio Borrowing from the culinary world, preparing your materials and workspace in advance (even if just a simple setup) reduces friction and makes it easier to begin your next session. Creator vs. Editor When you are in the studio, you are the creator; judgment and editing come later. Separating these roles prevents the pressure to produce "portfolio-ready" work from paralyzing your practice.   Memorable Quotes: "When I say come home to your art, I mean physically altering your brain chemistry to reduce stress, silence your inner critic." "The nervous system does not give a crap... it cares about the process, it cares about the meditative act of art making." "The key isn't necessarily finding more time is protecting the time that you have and prioritizing your own work over everyone else's." "At its core, [art] is a survival mechanism for sensitive people. It's the way we process life." "Don't think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art." — Andy Warhol (referenced in episode)   Mentioned in This Episode: Your Brain on Art (Book) Atomic Habits by James Clear Drexel University Cortisol Study   Connect & Resources: Join the 100 Day Painting Challenge: https://www.paintwithkat.com/challenge Website: https://www.createmagazine.co Substack: https://createmagazine.substack.com

Teacher evaluations can vary wildly—sometimes they are regularly scheduled; at other times they happen at the last minute before the school year ends. These appraisals typically involve an administrator observing a classroom lesson, which can feel contrived and stressful, resembling a mere "check-the-box" exercise. Frequently, the focus centers on teacher behaviors rather than examining the impact on student learning outcomes and the actions contributing to those outcomes. In this episode with Dr. Greg Moncada, we delve into the teacher appraisal system and explore how it can be transformed to prioritize student learning, better align with the school's mission, and more effectively support the professional growth of educators.Greg is the Head of Harare International School (HIS) in Zimbabwe and was previously the founding director of the Qatar Academy for Science and Technology (QAST), the Qatar Foundations' new Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) school. Prior to his leading role at HIS and QAST, Dr. Moncada started new schools and programs throughout his career, including a progressive middle school based on the “This We Believe' model and district-wide STEM programs in Elementary, Middle, and High School settings.  Dr. Moncada specializes in developing student-centered learning models, progressive learning models, and multiverse organizational structures between schools and organizations. With more than 30 years of experience, Greg has held teaching and leadership positions in International schools in Spain, Austria, Saudi Arabia, and South Africa, as well as in the United States. Greg holds a doctorate in Educational Leadership from the University of Minnesota, an MA in Leadership from Lehigh University, PA, and an MA in Science Education from Louisiana State University.Our guiding question for this show was: “How can teacher appraisal systems be designed to ensure improved student learning?”Some of the topics covered include:Greg's perspective on the term “teacher appraisal system”Separating the code of conduct from teacher appraisalAligning teacher appraisal and professional growth with other structuresDifferentiating for roles other than teacher, such as counselor, instructional coach, and athletic coachSupporting staff members to step out of their comfort zonesAdministrator appraisal and professional growthHead of School appraisal and the role of the school boardGreg's Contact Information: LinkedInThis episode waSupport the show Remember to access our Educators Going Global website for more information and consider joining our Patreon community at patreon/educatorsgoingglobal!Email us with comments or suggestions at educatorsgoingglobal@gmail.com Follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram or YouTube.Listen on your favorite podcast app: connect from our share page.Music: YouTube.

SHOW 12-22-25 THE SHOW BEGINS WITH DOUBTS ABOUT FUTURE NAVY. 1941 HICKAM FIELD 1. Restoring Naval Autonomy: Arguments for Separating the Navy from DoD. Tom Modly argues the Navy is an "underperforming asset" within the Defense Department's corporate structure, similar to how Fiat Chrysler successfully spun off Ferrari. He suggests the Navy needs independence to address critical shipbuilding deficits and better protect global commerce and vulnerable undersea cables from adversaries. 2. Future Fleets: Decentralizing Firepower to Counter Chinese Growth. Tom Modly warns that China's shipbuilding capacity vastly outpaces the US, requiring a shift toward distributed forces rather than expensive, concentrated platforms. He advocates for a reinvigorated, independent Department of the Navy to foster the creativity needed to address asymmetric threats like Houthi attacks on high-value assets. 3. British Weakness: The Failure to Challenge Beijing Over Jimmy Lai. Mark Simon predicts Prime Minister Starmer will fail to secure Jimmy Lai's release because the UK mistakenly views China as an economic savior. He notes the UK's diminished military and economic leverage leads to a submissive diplomatic stance, despite China'sdeclining ability to offer investment. 4. Enforcing Sanctions: Interdicting the Shadow Fleet to Squeeze China. Victoria Coates details the Trump administration's enforcement of a "Monroe Doctrine" corollary, using naval power to seize tankers carrying Venezuelan oil to China. This strategy exposes China's lack of maritime projection and energy vulnerability, as Beijingcannot legally contest the seizures of illicit shadow fleet vessels. 5. Symbolic Strikes: US and Jordan Target Resurgent ISIS in Syria. Following an attack on US personnel, the US and Jordan conducted airstrikes against ISIS strongholds, likely with Syrian regime consultation. Ahmed Sharawi questions the efficacy of striking desert warehouses when ISIS cells have moved into urban areas, suggesting the strikes were primarily symbolic domestic messaging. 6. Failure to Disarm: Hezbollah's Persistence and UNIFIL's Inefficacy. David Daoud reports that the Lebanesegovernment is failing to disarm Hezbollah south of the Litani River, merely evicting them from abandoned sites. He argues UNIFIL is an ineffective tripwire, as Hezbollah continues to rebuild infrastructure and receive funding right under international observers' noses. 7. Global Jihad: The Distinct Threats of the Brotherhood and ISIS. Edmund Fitton-Brown contrasts the Muslim Brotherhood's long-term infiltration of Western institutions with ISIS's violent, reckless approach. He warns that ISISremains viable, with recent facilitated attacks in Australia indicating a resurgence in capability beyond simple "inspired" violence. 8. The Forever War: Jihadist Patience vs. American Cycles. Bill Roggio argues the US has failed to defeat jihadist ideology or funding, allowing groups like Al-Qaeda to persist in Afghanistan and Africa. He warns that adversaries view American withdrawals as proof of untrustworthiness, exploiting the US tendency to fight short-term wars against enemies planning for decades. 9. The Professional: Von Steuben's Transformation of the Continental Army. Richard Bell introduces Baron von Steuben as a desperate, unemployed Prussian officer who professionalized the ragtag Continental Army at Valley Forge. Washington's hiring of foreign experts like Steuben demonstrated a strategic willingness to utilize global talent to ensure the revolution's survival. 10. Privateers and Prison Ships: The Unsung Cost of Maritime Independence. Richard Bell highlights the crucial role of privateers like William Russell, who raided British shipping when the Continental Navy was weak. Captured privateers faced horrific conditions in British "black hole" facilities like Mill Prison and the deadly prison ship Jersey in New York Harbor, where mortality rates reached 50%. 11. Caught in the Crossfire: Indigenous Struggles in the Revolutionary War. Molly Brant, a Mohawk leader, allied with the British to stop settler encroachment but became a refugee when the British failed to protect Indigenous lands. Post-war, white Americans constructed myths portraying themselves as blameless victims while ignoring their own Indigenous allies and British betrayals regarding land rights. 12. The Irish Dimension: Revolutionary Hopes and Brutal Repression. The Irish viewed the American Revolutionas a signal that the British Empire was vulnerable, sparking the failed 1798 Irish rebellion. While the British suppressed Irish independence brutally under Cornwallis, Irish immigrants and Scots-Irish settlers like Andrew Jackson fervently supported the Continental Army against the Crown. 13. Assessing Battlefield Realities: Russian Deceit and Ukrainian Counterattacks. John Hardie analyzes the "culture of deceit" within the Russian military, exemplified by false claims of capturing Kupyansk while Ukraine actually counterattacked. This systemic lying leads to overconfidence in Putin's strategy, though Ukraine also faces challenges with commanders hesitating to report lost positions to avoid forced counterattacks. 14. Shifts in Latin America: Brazilian Elections and Venezuelan Hope. Ernesto Araujo and Alejandro Peña Esclusapredict a 2026 battle between socialist accommodation and freedom-oriented transformation in Brazil, highlighted by Flavio Bolsonaro's candidacy against Lula. Meanwhile, Peña Esclusa anticipates Venezuela's liberation and a broader regional shift toward the right following leftist defeats in Ecuador, Argentina, and Chile. 15. Trump's Security Strategy: Homeland Defense Lacks Global Clarity. John Yoo praises the strategy's focus on homeland defense and the Western Hemisphere, reviving a corollary to the Monroe Doctrine. However, he criticizes the failure to explicitly name China as an adversary or define clear goals for defending allies in Asia and Europe against great power rivals. 16. Alienating Allies: The Strategic Cost of Attacking European Partners. John Yoo argues that imposing tariffs and attacking democratic European allies undermines the coalition needed to counter China and Russia. He asserts that democracies are the most reliable partners for protecting American security and values, making cooperation essential despite resource constraints and political disagreements.

The enhanced Obamacare subsidies are scheduled to expire at the end of the year, and people are anxious about health insurance. Maybe the real solution isn't more subsidies dumped into a broken system. Instead, maybe it's separating the markets: one system built explicitly, transparently, and honestly to cover people who need guaranteed, comprehensive care—funded through taxes and direct subsidies—and another system that allows healthy individuals to buy true insurance that is priced based on risk, choice, and personal tradeoffs.

As the year winds down, I always find myself in reflection mode—looking back at the goals I set at the beginning of 2025, evaluating what went well, what didn't pan out, and most importantly, what I learned along the way that will make me better at goal-setting moving forward. And let me tell you, goal setting is one of my absolute favorite things to do. I love the process of dreaming big, planning strategically, and mapping out what's next for my life and business. But if I've learned anything over the years of setting and tracking goals, it's that how you set your goals (and how you track your progress throughout the year) matters just as much as the goals themselves. You can have ambitious, exciting goals, but without the right assessment process and tracking systems, you'll constantly feel like you're falling short even when you're making real progress. Or worse, you'll keep setting the same goals year after year without understanding why they're not working. So today, I want to help you assess where you are right now with total honesty and zero guilt. Whether you absolutely crushed your 2025 goals and exceeded your own expectations, or you're looking at your list feeling like you fell short in several areas, this episode will help you reflect constructively and set yourself up for even more success in 2026. In this episode, I'm sharing 6 practical ways to assess your current goal progress and set better, more effective, more aligned goals for the new year. These strategies will help you understand what worked, what didn't, and how to create goals that actually stick.   Here's What You'll Learn in This Episode: How to conduct an honest goal inventory without self-judgment Why celebrating progress matters more than perfect completion Identifying successful systems and habits that moved you forward Recognizing patterns and obstacles that consistently derailed progress The importance of revisiting your "why" before setting new goals How to make goals specific and measurable for better tracking Breaking big goals into small, consistent, achievable actions Adjusting goals when life circumstances or priorities change Separating self-worth from goal achievement outcomes Setting smarter goals based on lessons learned from previous years   Here's a glance at this episode: [02:01] Honest Goal Inventory: Taking stock of achievements, in-progress goals, and what didn't happen (without self-criticism). [04:25] Progress Over Perfection: Why consistent effort and partial completion deserve celebration and recognition [08:02] Revisiting Your Why: Evaluating whether last year's goals still align with your current values and lifestyle. [11:09] Specific Goal-Setting: How to transform vague intentions into measurable, trackable targets.  [13:06] Self-Worth Reminder: Decoupling personal value from goal completion and embracing growth mindset.  

Separating the Art from the Artist. Occasionally you encounter a piece of art, a book, a song, a painting, maybe even a performance, that moves you to the point that it alters the way you see the world, but then you find out the artist responsible is a terrible human, and it leaves you wondering […]

Stephanie hosts Lee Strobel, acclaimed author known for "The Case for Christ" and many other works examining the evidence for Christianity. Together they explore the true story of Christmas, the reality of miracles, and how the supernatural intersects with our everyday lives. This conversation challenges us to view Christmas with fresh eyes, to trust in God's supernatural power, and to enter the season embracing generosity, hope, and an openness to miracles—both big and small.Understanding historical and cultural context enriches our appreciation for the Christmas story and corrects misconceptions shaped by tradition and mistranslation. So, Stephanie opens by asking Lee to unpack traditional nativity scenes. Strobel explains that the common image of Mary and Joseph being turned away by a harsh innkeeper actually stems from a mistranslation. The Greek word "kataluma" is better understood as "guest room" rather than an inn. In first-century Bethlehem, homes often had a main living area with adjacent space for animals, and wealthier homes included a guest room. Mary and Joseph most likely found shelter with relatives who didn't have space in the guest room, so Jesus was born in the main family area, not in a crowded stable. Furthermore, Lee debunks the myth that Bethlehem was bustling with commercial inns; hospitality was so valued in that culture, it would be unthinkable to turn away a pregnant woman.Miracles, by definition, are acts of God that transcend natural laws; if we accept the existence of a Creator, then miracles like the virgin birth become logically possible. So, Lee addresses common skepticism about the virgin birth, referencing Dr. William Lane Craig's journey from doubt to faith. The miracle becomes scientifically plausible when recognizing that if God created the universe and set the laws of nature, creating a Y chromosome is a simple task for Him.Our celebrations are opportunities to focus on generosity and the meaning of Christ's birth rather than being distracted by debates about dates or traditions. In that way, the date of Christmas isn't biblically mandated—early Christians didn't record or celebrate birthdays. December 25th became tradition through a series of theological and historical developments, not pagan theft. Gift-giving echoes the generosity of figures like St. Nicholas, whose story shaped holiday customs such as stocking gifts.Miracles still happen and can be examined with reason and evidence. Prayer remains a powerful connection to God's supernatural work. Lee emphasizes medical documentation, credible witnesses, lack of natural explanation, and a context of prayer as strong criteria for validating miracles. Modern research, such as documented healing events in places like Mozambique and Brazil, shows that miracles often accompany breakthroughs of the gospel.The Holy Spirit continues to work beyond cultural and political barriers, using dreams, visions, and supernatural encounters to reveal Jesus. Lee's book "Seeing the Supernatural" and testimonies from the Middle East reveal how God uses dreams and visions to reach people, especially in closed countries. These experiences often have cross-verification and lead individuals into Christian community.God's promise is not a life free of suffering but a hope of ultimate healing and redemption, both now and in eternity. Stephanie and Lee close by reflecting on personal experiences with pain and loss. They discuss how suffering can lead to deeper faith, humility, and compassion, and how God redeems our pain according to Romans 8:28.THERE ARE SEVERAL WAYS TO PARTNER WITH GOSPEL SPICE TODAY!First, PAY Gospel Spice Forward: Give a tax-deductible gift so others can experience our ministry for free, just like you!

In finance, success often means getting bigger, yet time and again, the market cheers when a huge company decides to intentionally break itself up. Why does spinning off a subsidiary so often unlock massive shareholder value?In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained on FinPod, we break down the strategic logic, mechanics, and critical financial challenges behind corporate spin-offs, making it essential listening for anyone in corporate strategy, M&A, or investor relations.Spinoff Mechanics & Value DriversA spin-off is a powerful, generally tax-free maneuver where the parent company distributes shares of a subsidiary directly to its existing shareholders, creating a fully independent "pure play" company.Here are the four main reasons this strategy often makes the total value of the combined entities much larger than the original conglomerate:Strategic Focus: Separation enables each management team to focus solely on their specific business model (e.g., utility cash flow vs. software growth), thereby removing internal friction and distraction. Valuation Re-Rating (Pure Play Effect): The market hates complexity (conglomerate discount). Breaking the company apart allows analysts to value each "pure play" unit against specific, comparable peers (such as healthcare vs. aviation), instantly increasing the collective value. Better Incentives: Boards can tailor executive compensation (e.g., high stock options for a growth startup) to attract and retain specialized talent, which was impossible under the slow-growth parent. Capital Allocation Freedom: Separated companies can develop capital plans tailored to their specific needs (e.g., one invests billions in 5G, while the other focuses solely on dividends), thereby eliminating internal competition for resources.Case Studies: Breaking Up for GrowthWe examine pivotal spin-offs that redefined industries:PayPal & eBay (2015): PayPal, tethered to the eBay marketplace, was unable to partner with rivals like Amazon. Independence enabled it to launch an aggressive partnership blitz, resulting in its market cap more than doubling in three years due to the strategic freedom it afforded.AT&T & Warner Media (2022): Driven by massive capital allocation issues (feeding both the capital-intensive telecom core and the cash-burning streaming empire). The spin-off allowed AT&T to focus on paying down debt and 5G buildout.General Electric (GE): The ultimate pure play story. Separating the conglomerate into three focused businesses (Aviation, Healthcare, Energy) is projected to unlock significantly higher collective value by removing the devastating conglomerate discount.The Finance Challenge: Pitfalls and ExecutionThe strategy is powerful, but the execution is risky. Finance teams (FP&A, Treasury) must nail these critical areas:Standalone Viability: Building full financial statements from scratch to ensure the new company can survive and thrive without the parent's scale and support. Stranded Costs / Dis-Synergies: The hidden risk where the cost of duplicating shared services (IT, HR, accounting) and building new infrastructure is underestimated, potentially wiping out the expected value.Capital Structure Design: Carefully dividing the corporate debt to ensure both companies emerge with a healthy credit rating and leverage profile that fits their new strategic mission. Investor Communication: Crafting a crystal-clear narrative for investors, providing honest estimates for dis-synergy costs, and proving the math with a robust Sum-of-the-Parts (SOTP) valuation.The next time a spin-off is announced, look past the headlines: Check the clarity of the dis-synergy estimates and whether the new capital structure makes strategic sense. Radical simplification and the quest for pure play are often the most powerful tools in the corporate strategy playbook.

From trying desperately to be a "good man"… to realizing that avoiding discomfort is what slowly destroys intimacy — this solo episode breaks down why so many men avoid hard conversations and how that pattern quietly sabotages relationships. Instead of blaming "sensitive partners," conflict, or thinking you're just bad at communication, David reveals the real issue:

Today, Rachel and Callie begin the show by discussing the announcement of Bronwyn and Todd Newport's separation. They compare this news to what they have been seeing on the show, and they get into the first few days of the ‘Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' women's Greece trip. They applaud Mary's commentary throughout the trip, and they predict which housewife will be the first to reach out to Jen Shah now that she is out of jail. Next, they break down the surprisingly good second episode of the new ‘Vanderpump Rules,' and they agree that Venus is their favorite (27:55). Finally, they talk about Callie's favorite Bravo show, ‘Southern Charm,' where Craig continues to ruffle feathers and burn bridges with nearly everyone except Rodrigo (41:24).

Each of them shared a personal habit or practice that genuinely helps them cope or keep on top of their wellbeing, and I add a couple of my own strategies too. Whether you're navigating hoarding, supporting someone who is, or just looking for affordable ways to protect your own mental health, stick around for a mix of practical, honest tips to try for yourself. Special Episode Format: Compilation of Guest Advice Throughout the year, every guest was asked about habits or practices supporting their mental health. Guest Contributions: Mental Health Habits and Practices Harriet Impey (Episode 172) Mindfulness and meditation, especially mindful self-compassion (inspired by Kristin Neff). Practical examples: Being present, guided meditation, practicing non-attachment, and self-reflection on letting go of unhelpful arguments. Dr Jan Eppingstall (Episodes 174 & 204) Practicing gratitude to counterbalance negativity bias. Unsubscribing from unwanted emails to reduce anxiety and overwhelm. Interacting with pets for grounding and emotional well-being - petting animals as a stress reliever. Visiting places where animals are accessible (e.g., city farms, pet shops, animal cafes). Jasmine Sleigh (Episode 175) Importance of good sleep for mental health. Value of pleasurable activities like reading, and the paradox of sometimes resisting enjoyable activities (self-sabotage). Reflection on how engaging in enjoyable pastimes is essential even when it's difficult to get started. Sam (Episode 178) Writing things down: Keeping lists of achievements and things to be grateful for, even small joys. Acknowledging how gratitude doesn't have to be grand - simple moments count. Exercise, particularly running, or any activity that gets you outside of your current headspace (could be walking, volunteering, etc.). The role of support from others to prompt new perspectives or activities. Dr. Victoria Ruby-Granger (Episode 179) Self-awareness and accepting what works for you, rather than trying to fit yourself to methods that don't suit. Emphasis on letting go of approaches that don't align with your own needs, and being open to alternative strategies. Carrie Lagerstedt (Episode 183) Moral neutrality: Separating self-worth from issues like executive dysfunction, lateness, and messiness. Reframing these traits as value-neutral rather than personal failings, helping to build self-esteem. That Hoarder Creative self-expression: Resentful journaling, collage, and visual arts—done primarily for personal expression, not for others' approval. Permission for creative works to be imperfect and focused on process over outcome. Nature connection: Getting outside, paying attention to natural details (flowers, leaves, colours, wildlife), and practicing mindful observation to foster grounding and perspective. Importance of self-compassion, giving oneself credit for small achievements (especially with meditation or walks). Allowing yourself pleasurable, nurturing, or healing activities without guilt. Noticing the bigger world and natural cycles as a counter to internal struggles. Encouragement for listeners to reflect on which practices resonate and to share their own tips.

In this episode of The Privacy & Freedom Podcast, Forrest Garvin takes you deep into one of the most powerful — and misunderstood — tools for modern privacy and asset protection: the Anonymous LLC. Also known as a “Ghost LLC,” this structure allows you to legally own property, businesses, and assets without your personal name appearing on public records. Forrest explains how data brokers, trial lawyers, and even online stalkers use state business registries to track ownership, target individuals, and uncover wealth. Then he shows how Anonymous LLCs provide a legal firewall between you and your holdings — protecting your family, your finances, and your freedom. You'll learn which states offer the strongest privacy laws (like Wyoming and New Mexico), how registered agents keep your identity off public filings, and how to layer your LLCs for maximum protection. This episode also uncovers the biggest mistakes people make when setting up “anonymous” entities — from using the wrong address or email to accidentally revealing ownership through tax or payment records. Forrest walks you through how to do it the right way, step-by-step. At Garvin Academy, Forrest teaches both the Disappear on the Internet course — a complete 25-hour guide to wiping your digital footprint — and his exclusive How to Create an Anonymous LLC course, which walks you through building and managing a true privacy protected business entity. Both courses are available now at GarvinAcademy.com. Because in today's world, privacy and security are freedom — and if your name is tied to everything you own, you don't truly own anything at all.

Guest: Heather Adkins, VP of Security Engineering, Google Topic: The term "AI Hacking Singularity" sounds like pure sci-fi, yet you and some other very credible folks are using it to describe an imminent threat. How much of this is hyperbole to shock the complacent, and how much is based on actual, observed capabilities today?  Can autonomous AI agents really achieve that "exploit - at - machine - velocity" without human intervention for the zero-day discovery phase? On the other hand, why may it actually not happen? When we talk about autonomous AI attack platforms, are we talking about highly resourced nation-states and top-tier criminal groups, or will this capability truly be accessible to the average threat actor within the next 6-12 months? What's the "Metasploit" equivalent for AI-powered exploitation that will be ubiquitous?  Can you paint a realistic picture of the worst-case scenario that autonomous AI hacking enables? Is it a complete breakdown of patch cycles, a global infrastructure collapse, or something worse? If attackers are operating at "machine speed," the human defender is fundamentally outmatched. Is there a genuine "AI-to-AI" counter-tactic that doesn't just devolve into an infinite arms race? Or can we counter without AI at all? Given that AI can expedite vulnerability discovery, how does this amplified threat vector impact the software supply chain? If a dependency is compromised within minutes of a new vulnerability being created, does this force the industry to completely abandon the open-source model, or does it demand a radical, real-time security scanning and patching system that only a handful of tech giants can afford? Are current proposed regulations, like those focusing on model safety or disclosure, even targeting the right problem?  If the real danger is the combinatorial speed of autonomous attack agents, what simple, impactful policy change should world governments prioritize right now?
