B. GOLDSTONE FAILURE AND SUPERNOVA DISCOVERY Guest: Bob Zimmerman NASA's Goldstone antenna, a critical link in the Deep Space Network, is out of service due to an embarrassing error where it was over-rotated, twisting the cables. This impacts communications with interplanetary and Artemis missions. Separately, new astronomical data from a supernova explosion shows the initial eruption was not symmetrical but bipolar, pushing material and light along the star's poles, refining explosion models.
Welcome to Saturday Service — our in person intuitive community gathering in Austin, Texas. Today, we wanted to let you in on the experience. Every Saturday (with a few exceptions when I'm traveling), we come together at 11 a.m. for a completely free community gathering where we explore intuitive guidance, connect with like minded high conscious souls, and tap into deeper levels of clarity. Everyone who comes is so wholesome, so open hearted, and so ready to grow — and I wanted you to feel that for yourself.This episode is a sneak peek into the beauty. We extracted the audio straight from a video I recorded on my iPhone at Saturday Service so you can hear it exactly as it happened — real, unfiltered, intimate, and aligned.In today's session, we dive into the art of taking messy aligned intuitive action (what we call M.A.I.A.) — the kind of action that magnetizes your desires, moves your life forward, and aligns you with the path your Higher Self has been trying to guide you toward all along. If you've been asking for clarity on how to take action without overthinking, doubting, or delaying… this episode is going to feel like a deep breath.And if you're in or near the Austin area — or you feel called to travel in and join us — our next Saturday Service is happening on November 22nd. You can get your free ticket below. We'll also have more dates in December, and most Saturdays in the new year we'll be gathering again at 11 a.m. CST.Come be part of the community. Come meet your people. Come experience the clarity, connection, and Source-Aligned energy for yourself.I'm so excited for you to listen.Ready to Join Saturday Service?Get your free ticket | HereReady to build the foundation of intuitive mastery?

For the past seven years, Ajax Trueblood has served as an Elders Quorum Service Coordinator in two different wards in Utah—and he calls it the best calling in the Church. Through that experience, he's learned that consistent, inspired service doesn't just bless those being helped—it transforms the hearts and unity of those who serve. Links Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Elders Quorum Service Coordinator Movers & Shakers Squad Soup Patrol in Elders Quorum Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights Ajax shares his experience magnifying the often-overlooked calling of the elders quorum service coordinator. He talks about shifting the culture of an elders quorum to be proactively service-oriented, fostering spiritual growth, and extending Christlike care to members and the community beyond the traditional tasks of moving furniture. Ajax emphasizes that selfless service is a central, scriptural tenet of the gospel that should guide the quorum's efforts. Key Insights Service is Core Discipleship: The service coordinator role, while briefly mentioned in the Church handbook (8.5.3), is viewed by Ajax as foundational to the gospel, emphasizing the principles of bearing one another's burdens and charity. The "Movers and Shakers Squad" (M&S): Ajax organizes volunteers into the M&S list, which is mobilized quickly via text messaging for physical labor, focusing on positive responses only to keep communication clean. Physical projects are handled by small, efficient teams with a designated on-site team leader to improve safety and effectiveness. The Power of "Soup Patrol": This initiative is a non-physical service designed to provide emotional connection and support. It involves quickly delivering small tokens, such as homemade soup, bread, or cookies, to those who are sick or struggling, emphasizing presence and care over the physical item. Coordination Over Execution: A key principle is that the coordinator's primary focus should be on coordination—getting the right people the opportunity to serve—rather than defaulting to execution and doing all the work themselves. This builds linkages and involves more people. Beyond Ward Boundaries: The quorum's service extends beyond active members and ward boundaries to help anyone in the community, including those needing yard work, cleanup, or help moving, using these opportunities as a bridge for fellowship and missionary work. Synergy with Ministering: Service efforts must support the ministering program. Ajax proactively contacts assigned ministering brothers to give them the opportunity to be involved first, ensuring the service coordinator system reinforces the core assignment rather than displacing it. Leadership Applications Recruit Based on Willingness: Leaders should identify and recruit members who are genuinely willing and able to serve, creating a volunteer-driven service system rather than assigning reluctant members to tasks. Offer Diverse Service Opportunities: By implementing low-physical-demand options like the "Soup Patrol," leaders can engage members (like the elderly or young fathers) who may be maxed out or resistant to physically demanding assignments like moving, providing a place for everyone to serve. Be Proactive, Not Passive: Service coordinators should adopt a proactive approach, constantly keeping their "feelers out" by asking members for needs and looking for opportunities rather than waiting for formal requests to come down through the bishopric or ward council. 04:00 - Introduction to the Elders Quorum Service Coordinator Role 06:00 - The Service Coordinator Calling is Foundational to the Gospel 07:10 - Handbook Reference and Magnifying the Calling 08:05 - Organizing Service in a Rapidly Growing Ward (Vineyard) 08:50 - The Key to Success: Asking for Volunteers 11:00 - Service in an Older Ward (St. George) and Moving Beyond Moves

In this solo episode, Darin reframes one of the most misunderstood forces in life — stress. Instead of seeing it as the enemy, he explores how stress is actually a messenger, guiding you back to alignment, safety, and awareness. Through science, spirituality, and lived experience, Darin breaks down how stress shows us where we're trying to control, where we're disconnected, and where our nervous system is calling for attention. He unpacks the layers of modern stress — from trauma and environment to community and purpose — and offers practical, embodied tools to restore calm, clarity, and resilience.

Unlocking Sustainable Growth for Service-Based Businesses: Insights from Michael WalshIn this episode, host Josh Elledge interviews Michael Walsh, President and Founder of Walsh Business Growth Institute. Michael shares insights from over 30 years of helping service-based businesses scale successfully while keeping their people, purpose, and processes aligned. The discussion explores the stages where businesses typically plateau, the impact of AI and generational shifts, and how leaders can empower their teams to drive sustainable growth.Building People-First Growth SystemsMichael explains that most service-based companies hit growth ceilings around $2M, $5M, $10M, and $20M in revenue — not because of lack of opportunity, but because their structures can't keep up. As businesses scale, leaders often tighten control, adding more rules and oversight. Instead, sustainable growth requires empowerment — giving talented teams autonomy, clarity, and purpose.He emphasizes that today's workforce, especially Millennials and Gen Z, values trust, flexibility, and inclusion. Leaders must evolve from top-down management to coaching, mentorship, and development. Post-pandemic realities and rapid AI adoption have further transformed how businesses operate, making adaptability and people-first systems non-negotiable.Drawing from his new book, Freedom by Design, Michael outlines four behavioral pillars of successful growth: understanding individual strengths, building complementary teams, fostering supportive environments, and maintaining flexible structures. His approach helps leaders break through plateaus and rediscover the joy of business ownership by creating alignment between people, purpose, and performance.About Michael WalshMichael Walsh is the President and Founder of Walsh Business Growth Institute and author of Freedom by Design: The Established Business Owner's Guide to Grow, Make an Impact, and Find the Joy Again. With three decades of experience advising service-based organizations, Michael helps leaders navigate growth plateaus, empower their teams, and build businesses that thrive without burning out.About Walsh Business Growth InstituteThe Walsh Business Growth Institute helps established service-based companies overcome growth barriers through strengths-based strategy, leadership development, and structural optimization. Their customized programs empower business owners to scale intentionally, improve team performance, and create long-term operational freedom.

Target's new "10-4" policy requires employees to smile and wave at customers within 10 feet, and personally greet them within 4 feet. Is this explicit instruction necessary for today's workforce, or a forced, performative approach that signals deeper cultural problems? Former Target store manager Chris Walton shares insider perspective on why this policy reveals how far store culture has declined, while Anne argues that explicit direction is needed for first-time workers entering the retail job market. Kelly calls it "firmly over and out," while Waqas warns it could give employees an excuse to avoid customers entirely.

In this powerful episode, Thais Gibson and co-host Mike reveal the five biggest (and most unexpected) things that happen when you start sharing a home with someone who struggles with emotional closeness.

A great marketing engine doesn't run in a straight line. It spins, gathers speed, and builds momentum with every turn.That's the lesson of the flywheel, a framework that transforms scattered marketing efforts into a self-sustaining system of growth. In this episode, we explore how to turn that theory into reality with Nataly Kelly, Chief Marketing Officer at Zappi.Together, we unpack what B2B marketers can learn from building circular strategies that connect brand to demand, removing friction where it matters most, and compounding small wins into unstoppable momentum.About our guest, Nataly KellyNataly Kelly is CMO at Zappi. She has over 20 years of experience leading remote and global teams, and previously served 7 years as VP at HubSpot. She is a frequent contributor to Harvard Business Review, a published author of four books, keynote speaker on marketing, growth, and international expansion, and an award-winning leader. She has been named among the Top 50 CMOs on LinkedIn, as Marketing Executive of the Year, in the 40 under 40, and one of the Top 25 Content Marketers in Enterprise Software, as well as among the Women Worth Watching.What B2B Companies Can Learn From the Flywheel:Marketing is a flywheel, not a funnel. Marketers love funnels because they're measurable, but Nataly reminds us that the best marketing is circular, not linear. She says, “So often we have thought of marketing as like a linear funnel. But the flywheel's really where you turn the funnel on the side and then connect the top to the bottom.” In her model, brand, demand, land, and expand all feed each other in an ongoing loop. Marketing shouldn't be about one campaign that ends. It's about creating continuous energy that connects awareness to advocacy.Friction kills momentum. Velocity doesn't come from spending more, it comes from removing what slows you down. Nataly explains, “A general rule of thumb I've always used is the closer you get to someone's wallet, the more important it is to remove friction…. Every touchpoint is a chance to delight a customer.” In B2B marketing, the same rule applies: every confusing process, clunky message, or slow response is a brake on your flywheel. Smooth the path, and speed will follow.Small improvements compound into unstoppable growth. Marketers often look for a big splash, but Nataly says momentum comes from micro progress. Nataly asks, “What are the small things we can do to create uplift today and momentum today?... And those things add up.” Each small optimization—an improved touchpoint, a clearer message, a faster follow-up—removes friction and accelerates the flywheel. Consistency, not chaos, creates compounding power.Quote“Your brand voice is really how you decide to communicate with your customer. And that is not just what we typically consider marketing communications. It touches every part of the customer experience.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Nataly Kelly, Chief Marketing Officer at Zappi[01:09] Why Flywheels?[05:16] Role of Chief Marketing Officer at Zappi[07:30] What are Flywheels?[20:52] Understanding Market Dynamics and Customer Segmentation[22:11] Building and Maintaining a Flywheel Strategy[26:11] Content Marketing Success Stories[33:51] Leveraging LinkedIn for Effective Content Distribution[39:22] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Nataly on LinkedInLearn more about ZappiAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

In this powerful Veterans Week episode, The MisFitNation welcomes US Army Veteran Tammy Flake — a leader, advocate, businesswoman, and champion for veteran wellness and community connection.

She earned her Air Assault qualification and deployed to Iraq (2005–2006), where she played a key role in maintaining readiness and equipping soldiers for their missions.

In this powerful and thought-provoking talk, Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera explores the true essence of leadership in Islam and beyond. Addressing students of sacred knowledge, he reminds them that scholarship is not merely about learning — it is about responsibility. Once recognized as people of knowledge, the community will naturally look to them for guidance, strength, and direction. Drawing on the prophetic teaching that “the leader is the servant of his people,” Dr. Mangera emphasizes that genuine leadership is rooted in humility and service, not authority or status. This lecture challenges every aspiring scholar and community member to redefine what it means to lead — to see leadership as an act of service, compassion, and sacrifice in the pursuit of uplifting others.

Every year on November 11th, Americans pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our nation in the Armed Forces. In our daily prayer and devotional, we reflect on the fact that Veterans Day commemorates the signing of the armistice that ended World War I — the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month — and stands as a reminder of the tremendous sacrifice made by those who have fought for our freedom. The liberties we enjoy today were secured through courage, hardship, and devotion. Many veterans have risked their lives — and some have given them — to defend our country. As John 15:13 tells us, “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” Our veterans come from all walks of life — rich and poor, from cities and small towns, from every background — yet they stood together with one purpose: to protect and preserve freedom. Their service reminds us that courage is not the absence of fear, but faith in the face of danger. For many veterans, their experiences in service shaped their faith in profound ways. Those who know Christ carry the assurance that God is with them wherever they go (Joshua 1:9). And for those who continue to carry the weight of war — physical wounds, trauma, or loss — God’s comfort remains ever near. As 2 Corinthians 1:3–4 reminds us, He is “the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles.” Today, as we honor those who have served, let us also pray for their healing, peace, and restoration. May every veteran feel seen, valued, and deeply appreciated — not only by their nation, but by the God who calls them beloved. Today's Bible Reading:“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” – Joshua 1:9

If you're confused about the differences between Veterans Day, Memorial Day, and Armed Forces Day here in America, you're not alone. Decades of government meddling and mixed messages have blurred the lines between honoring those who once served their country, those still on active or reserve duty, and those who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom's cause. Admiral James Ellis, the Hoover Institution's Annenberg Distinguished Visiting Fellow, reflects on his nearly forty years of service on land and at sea (naval aviator, aircraft carrier "skipper" and head of the United State Strategic Command), the challenges facing veterans as they re-enter civilian life, plus ways to properly honor and improve the lives of America's sizable veterans community.
