As a pediatrician, I spent years looking at firearm safety through a clinical lens—as a major public health crisis and a tragic statistic. But after practicing in South Florida during the Parkland shooting and becoming a mother myself, the stakes became deeply personal. My husband is an ER doctor who sees the devastating aftermath of gun violence firsthand, and as a parent, I refuse to accept that this is now the leading cause of death for American children. We cannot just treat the symptoms of this crisis in our clinics; we have to get out ahead of it, which is why I expanded my platform to advocate for change outside the exam room. Connecting with grassroots leaders like Angela Ferrell-Zabala reminds us that we don't have to succumb to helplessness or political polarization. Real change happens in our everyday lives—like normalizing a simple question about secure firearm storage before a playdate, or supporting local legislation in our own backyards. Advocacy is a massive ecosystem, and as parents and healthcare providers, our voices carry immense weight. By breaking down political divides and working together, we can move past the noise and build a world where our children are safe to just be kids. What we discuss: Why treating gun violence as a public health issue is the key to real safety reform. The truth behind the leading cause of death for children in America and how to change it. How Moms Demand Action became a leading volunteer movement against gun violence. Easy, non-confrontational ways to ask other parents about safe firearm storage before playdates. Why ER doctors, pediatricians, and parents must work together to prevent gun injuries. Breaking down the impact of America's historic federal gun safety legislation. How grassroots advocates are successfully outlawing 3D-printed firearms and machine gun conversion kits. How to find common ground and have constructive conversations with responsible gun owners.

Are you trying to find fulfillment by filling yourself up, or are you ready to experience the deep joy that only comes from pouring yourself out?  This week on Off Script, Neil and Scott dive into Philippians Chapter 2 to explore the radical humility of Jesus and what it practically looks like to live a life of emptying ourselves for others. The guys break down the stark contrast between a "stagnant lake" that stores up blessings and a flowing stream that continually pours out, pointing to Jesus as the ultimate example of self-emptying love. They also dive into the historical reality of Paul and Silas singing hymns in a midnight dungeon, challenging us to step out of our physical and spiritual comfort zones to "sing through the suffering." The Challenge This week, look for an intentional pathway to empty yourself on behalf of someone else. Ask yourself three specific questions: Who did I serve today? What did I give away? and Whose burden did I bear? When the Holy Spirit presents a clear opportunity to step outside of your comfort zone and serve, make the choice to say yes instead of looking inward. Hosts: Neil Gregory and Scott Nickell What We Discuss The balance of pastoral health: establishing thresholds for preaching and demonstrating the necessity of rest Shifting from a "stagnant lake" mentality to becoming a flowing, overflowing stream that pours out to others How trying to constantly fill and satisfy ourselves blocks us from experiencing true biblical joy The historical background of Philippians 2 and the missing context of Epaphroditus falling deathly ill A vivid look at Acts 16: the brutal reality of Paul and Silas being beaten with rods and thrown into prison stocks Why singing through suffering destroys the leverage of the enemy and serves as a powerful witness to others Overcoming pride in worship and how changing our physical posture can unlock something deep within us spiritually Capturing the powerful moment of bowing our heads to acknowledge being small instruments in God's hands About Southland Christian Church Southland is one church meeting in multiple locations across central Kentucky. We believe Jesus came for the lost and the broken, which means there's a place for everyone here. Around here, that means we worship defiantly, speak truth unashamedly, and extend grace generously.

Desire isn't always as simple as it seems. For many couples, the initial spark of sexual and emotional intimacy can dim over time, replaced by questions, misunderstandings, and the painful sense that something has faded or is "broken." When mismatched desire enters a relationship, it can quickly become a battleground, leaving one or both partners feeling blamed, rejected, or disconnected—not only from each other but from their own bodies and needs. In this episode, listeners are invited to look beneath the surface of desire patterns and rethink how intimacy is cultivated over time. The conversation explores why the "problem" of desire is rarely rooted in one partner and how it is shaped instead by cycles of emotional and physical disconnection, unexamined beliefs, and the need for safety and self-awareness in the body. Listeners will discover tools for moving from blame toward curiosity, collaboration, and deep connection, and learn practical ways to rediscover what turns them on—together. Tarisha Tourok is a trauma-informed sex and relationship therapist and founder of Sexual Empowerment for Women. She helps unlock women's sexual desire and guides them into intimacy that melts their hearts and delights their souls. With 15+ years of experience, Tarisha blends psychotherapy, sacred sexuality, and somatic healing to help women reclaim the power and beauty of their sexuality—so they can live, love, and connect with radiant confidence.   Episode Highlights 06:06 Reframing desire differences. 12:14 The complex factors influencing sexual desire. 16:07 Shifting from spontaneous to responsive desire and reconnecting with your body. 19:39 Exploring how to build responsiveness and address past trauma 22:44 How culture, religion, and body image affect desire. 24:26 Generational influences and healing transgenerational trauma. 27:41 Breaking family cycles to create new patterns. 31:46 Building a stronger relationship with your body and sense of desire. 36:55 Emotional resonance, safety, and shared intimacy practices. 44:33 Cultivating intimacy through personal and relational growth. 49:18 Redefining pleasure: Connection over performance & practical resources.   Your Checklist of Actions to Take Adopt a "Team" Mindset: Approach intimacy challenges as a shared experience rather than individual problems, discussing openly how to become partners in exploration. Create Space for Exploration: Remove blame and give both partners space to explore what turns each person on, without feeling pressure or guilt. Practice Vulnerability: Softly communicate underlying fears or insecurities instead of defaulting to frustration or blame, helping both partners connect on a deeper level. Carve Out Time for Intimacy: Intentionally prioritize time together, making room for connection and recognizing the impact of daily busyness on sexual desire. Reconnect with Your Body: Develop practices—such as breathwork, mindful movement, or sensory experiences—that help you feel and respond from within your body. Acknowledge and Address Blocks: Identify and compassionately address personal blocks like trauma, self-judgment, or negative societal messaging before focusing on sexual desire. Share Sexual Blueprints: Take a sexual desire quiz, compare results, and discuss with your partner what environments and practices make you feel most turned on and safe. Redefine Goals for Intimacy: Shift away from performance-oriented goals like orgasm, focusing instead on connection, pleasure, and mutual presence in your intimate experiences.   Mentioned Reclaim Your Sexual Confidence mini-course (free mini-course) Sexual Desire Quiz (quiz) 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free guide)   Connect with Tarisha Tourok Website: sexualempowermentforwomen.com Facebook: facebook.com/groups/theradiantwomenclub YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UCvY7loDn-rDRUcUa-z3Lv_A Instagram: instagram.com/tarishatourok

Blending classic conflict simulation with Euro‑style area control, this two‑player design places you with the Spanish defenders doing everything they can to slow an advancing Ottoman siege. The Spanish side isn't trying to win outright so much as hold firm and make every step costly, creating a tense, measured experience where each decision carries real weight. With custom card decks and hidden wooden blocks shaping the flow of play, the game builds a steady, immersive pressure without ever feeling overwhelming. Shifting to a much lighter tone, Rebuilding Chicago and Toy Battle trade battlefield grit for creativity and quick, satisfying play. As the standalone follow‑up to Rebuilding Seattle, Rebuilding Chicago invites up to five players to reshape neighborhoods and guide a growing population after the Great Fire of 1871. It's a warm, engaging tile‑laying puzzle with plenty of room for clever planning. And if you're looking for something breezy to wrap up a game night, Paolo Mori's Toy Battle delivers a delightful 15‑minute burst of abstract strategy. With charming toy‑themed troops and whimsical double‑sided maps like the Volcanic Jungle or City of Clouds, it pairs simple rules with just enough tactical bite to leave everyone smiling. We're truly disappointed that we won't be able to host the Strike tournament at Gen Con this year. It's always a highlight for us, and we'll miss the energy, laughter, and chaos that only Gladiators in an Arena, I mean, a bowl of dice can create.

The U.S. propane market typically follows predictable trends. With much of domestic demand occurring in the colder months, storage builds in the summer and is withdrawn in the winter. But since mid-April, storage levels have increased by only 1.2 MMbbl. Today, we explore what is going on and why.

If your teenager suddenly seems distant, emotional, or wants nothing to do with you, you're not failing as a parent — and you're definitely not alone. In this eye-opening episode of the Parenting Teens with Dr. Cam Podcast, Dr. Cam Caswell sits down with Aliyah Singh, Hannah Ticajo, and Caitlin Severin from CultivaTeen Roots to unpack the real reason teens push parents away — and why it's actually a normal part of adolescent development. Together, they explore the science behind parenting teens, emotional safety, communication, self-regulation, and healthy family relationships. You'll learn why controlling behavior often damages connection, how social media impacts parenting expectations, and why the key to raising confident, independent teens is shifting from managing them to supporting them. This conversation is packed with practical parenting strategies to help parents reduce conflict, strengthen trust, improve communication with teenagers, and rediscover joy in the teen years. If you're exhausted by constant power struggles, worried about losing connection with your child, or wondering how to support your teen without pushing them further away, this episode will give you hope, clarity, and actionable tools you can start using immediately.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE Why teens naturally pull away from parents during adolescence — and what it actually means for your relationship How emotional safety and nervous system regulation improve communication with teenagers The parenting shift that helps teens become more independent, responsible, and emotionally resilient Practical ways to build stronger family relationships without control, pressure, or constant conflict   5 KEY TAKEAWAYS FOR PARENTS OF TEENS 1.

Welcome to another Risky Women Radio Book Club Edition. In an era dominated by rapid AI disruption, intensifying social scrutiny, and relentless geopolitical shifts, compliance can no longer be treated as a mere back-office box-checking exercise. In this episode, host Kimberley Cole sits down with Natalie McManus-Barnett, co-author of How to Be a Chief Compliance Officer and founder of Innovate Compliance. Shifting the narrative away from dry, bureaucratic policy-pushing, Natalie brings a refreshing dose of "polite disruption" to the table. She shares her "Jungle Gym" journey from the Financial Conduct Authority to Citibank, introducing a masterclass on how to weave compliance directly into the DNA of corporate strategy, execution, and culture to turn risk management into a genuine competitive advantage.

What happens when you choose to completely abandon a life of "quiet desperation" and trust the invisible, benevolent forces guiding your gut? In this returning-guest episode of the Miles to Zen podcast, host Shannon Miles Halliday sits down with men's intuition coach Doug Beitz  Doug shares his deeply personal journey from witnessing his father's unfulfilled life to breaking the cycle himself. He reveals how he went from serving as a professional firefighter to building an 18-room tropical scuba dive resort in the middle of Micronesia—and later, making global headlines by successfully selling it via a viral worldwide raffle. This conversation dives deep into the practical biology of intuition, spiritual frameworks like the Gene Keys, and the sheer courage it takes to leap when the universe gives you green lights but shows you no road.  Key Takeaways • Practical Tools to Train Your Gut Instincts Actionable advice on vocalizing desires to the universe, utilizing sleep intentions (writing notes under your pillow), and letting go of the need to control others.  • The Biology of Intuition: Diet, Energy Clearing, and Pendulums How the acid-alkaline balance, Gene Keys, nature immersion, and biofeedback tools (like pendulums) literally alter your body's physical frequency to pick up intuitive signals.  • Butterfly Signs & Real-World Synchronicities Doug and Shannon trade incredible, true stories of how paying attention to physical signs in the wild—like circling butterflies—averted near-disasters and confirmed massive life choices.  Memorable Quotes "What's more scary for me... is me getting to 60 and saying two words: If only. If only I tried." — Doug Beitz "All of a sudden, the lights went green—and there wasn't just three lights, there were 75 green lights. But when I looked ahead, there was no road. It was like a cliff... I realised the road was invisible, but it was still there." — Doug Beitz Connect with Shannon Miles Halliday: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/milestozen/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@milestozen Podcast Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-miles-to-zen-podcast-with-shannon-miles-halliday/id1790460448 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3EjVDgfTg9yc5m29sKMXzQ Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2440331 Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonhalliday/ Connect with Doug Beitz: Email: info@dougbeitz.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dougbeitz/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dougbeitz/ Website: https://buymeacoffee.com/dougbeitz Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6mQ258nugC3lyw3SpvYuoK?si=7cec409527d34438 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/intuitive-conversations-with-doug/id1593172364 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/doug-beitz-472a4b338/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dougbeitz178

Weekly Kingdom Outlook Episode 235-Toxic to Healthy In certain circumstances, we find ourselves in toxic environments. It is imperative that we acquire the necessary skills and strategies to navigate and thrive within these challenging conditions. Our ultimate objective should not be mere survival, but rather the pursuit of prosperity. In this regard, I would like to share a few insights on how to effectively operate within such environments and contribute to the fulfillment of God's divine plan.

Your brain is making choices for you before you even realize it. Neuroscientist Emily McDonald, known as M on the Brain, studies how your identity, nervous system, and subconscious programming quietly run the show. Most people think they're choosing. Research shows the neural pattern of a decision lights up in a brain scan before you're consciously aware you've made it. That's the gap Emily spent years learning to close. She grew up with clinical depression, ADHD, anxiety, and a victim mindset baked in by illness and circumstance. She wasn't looking for a life philosophy. She switched her major to neuroscience because it sounded cool and got a 100 on her first exam. What she found changed everything. The science she uncovered is this: your brain holds a model of who you are in the default mode network. It uses that model to predict your thoughts, behaviors, and choices on autopilot. If the model says you're someone who struggles with money, or fails at relationships, or can't focus, your nervous system quietly steers you toward confirming that story. The identity is the destiny. Shifting it means more than positive thinking. It means identity anchors, environment, the people around you, the habits encoded in your body. Emily calls it identity shifting, and she coaches people through it by asking a deceptively simple question: do you have a to-do list or a to-be list? Most people have never sat down to ask who they're becoming, only what they're accomplishing. This conversation will rewire the way you think about why you keep falling back into old patterns, how affirmations can actually work against you, and what neuroscience actually says about the law of attraction.

Central Theme Praise and worship are not limited to church; they are a daily lifestyle that shifts one's spiritual atmosphere. Focus should be on what God is doing, not on negative or opposing forces. Power of Praise and Perspective Worship can be expressed through music, gratitude, and daily acknowledgment of God. Shifting focus from problems to God's work brings hope and encouragement. God is תמיד active and able to do new things regardless of age or circumstance. Main Scripture: Parable of the Sower (Luke 8) The “seed” represents the Word of God. The “soil” represents different heart conditions. There are four types of hearts: Hard heart: rejects the Word. Shallow heart: receives quickly but falls away under pressure. Crowded heart: distracted and choked by life's cares, riches, and pleasures. Good (fruitful) heart: receives, retains, and produces lasting fruit. Key Teaching: The Importance of Process God's will is not instant; it unfolds through a process. Spiritual growth requires patience and perseverance. Analogy: Like assembling furniture, skipping steps leads to problems. The Role of the Heart Spiritual outcomes depend on heart condition, not just hearing the Word. People respond differently to the same message بسبب their القلب. Faith does not automatically come; it depends on personal response. The Crowded Heart Distractions include: Worries (mental division and anxiety). Pursuit of wealth. Pleasures and comforts. These are not inherently wrong but become harmful when they overshadow God. Example: Solomon had everything yet found it unfulfilling. The Fruitful (Good) Heart Characteristics of a receptive heart: Receives and values the Word. Seeks understanding intentionally. Remains focused despite distractions. Produces results over time (30, 60, 100-fold). How to Cultivate a Receptive Heart Listen attentively: Be intentional and focused when hearing God's Word. Retain the Word: Reflect, meditate, and internalize it. Act on the Word: Apply it عمليًا to life. Stay persistent: Growth and results require patience. Warnings and Insights Information without application does not lead to transformation. Modern life creates “information overload,” reducing spiritual focus. Desire determines priority; people make time for what matters most. Final Encouragement Stay committed to the process. Keep trusting and applying God's Word. A fruitful life comes through perseverance and faithful response.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Chris Vermeulen to the show. Chris Vermeulen is Founder & Chief Investment Officer, The Technical Traders. Vermeulen begins by analyzing the current equity market, noting that while stocks are grinding higher, the rally is not broad-based but concentrated in tech, small caps, and micro caps, which he sees as a sign of underlying weakness. He suggests the market may be entering a euphoric, parabolic phase, potentially triggered by upcoming IPOs like SpaceX, but warns this could end in a sharp correction and a major market top. Using Fibonacci extensions, he projects significant upside for the NASDAQ but remains cautious about the rally’s sustainability. Shifting to commodities, Vermeulen explains his preference for stable, trending assets over volatile, headline-driven ones like oil, which he avoids due to geopolitical noise. He expresses similar concerns about the agricultural sector, seeing it as a crowded trade where heavy public interest and high volume may indicate distribution rather than further upside. His most detailed analysis focuses on precious metals, where he forecasts a substantial near-term pullback for gold and silver. His Fibonacci analysis points to a potential drop in gold to $3,600 and a 46% decline in silver from current levels, which he views as a painful reset for latecomers before the next major bull cycle begins. He views gold miners as the same correlated trade, warning against over-concentration. Vermulen advocates for his “asset revesting” strategy, rotating capital into assets in confirmed uptrends and stepping aside when trends weaken. He emphasizes discipline, risk management, and avoiding emotional attachment to assets like physical gold, which he notes costs money to hold and can underperform for years. His focus remains on equities for now, waiting for a clearer entry point in precious metals after an anticipated sell-off.

In his book Asset Revesting – How to Exclusively Hold Assets Rising in Value, Profit During Bear Markets, and Continue Building Wealth in Retirement, he lays out this investment framework. Chris launched his financial career at 16, parlaying his knack for trading and risk management into funding his final year of college, where he earned a business diploma in operations management. By his twenties, he had achieved financial independence as a full-time entrepreneur and trader. After a setback—blowing up a trading account—Chris dedicated himself to treating trading as a business, completing the Trading Strategy Mastery and Trading Is Your Business courses.

*Disclaimer*There is some noticeable audio feedback at 03:00- 20:18. That is on producer Reece and will not happen again I apologize for the impact on your listening!It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' coaching situation, Evan Bouchard's injury at Worlds, the Conference Finals, line combinations, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether or not the boys have a problem with the Oilers allowing their players to participate in the World Championships, given what happened to Evan Bouchard yesterday against the USA. While it's definitely unfortunate to see that Bouchard got injured, the boys made a good case for why he should have gone to this tournament, given his hopes of playing for the Canadian Olympic team. Shifting gears, the boys looked at the latest news on the Oilers' coaching search, including quotes from Kelly McCrimmon and Bruce Cassidy after they were asked about the situation. Despite Kelly McCrimmon saying the Oilers leaked the story and that they don't want to talk about this any further, Vegas' GM keeps booking himself for radio appearances where he invariably gets asked about it. Needless to say, this situation keeps getting weirder as more details become available. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week that was. With the conference finals nearly wrapped up, the guys spent the bulk of the podcast moving through a range of topics, most related to the Oilers' needs for the off-season, some not, but that's the way things go on the Friday episode of ONR.

Tom Cotter is a third-generation farmer from Austin in southeast Minnesota who operates a diverse operation alongside his family and brother-in-law, Tony. He began farming with his dad in 1994 under a purely conventional system characterized by full tillage and routine chemical applications. Tom's journey into soil health began unexpectedly when his father purchased a tile plow and they noticed how much easier the equipment pulled—and how much better subsequent yields were—following a 20-acre test planting of rapeseed cover crops. Today, Tom manages an operation encompassing 340 acres of certified organic ground, 430 acres of conventional no-till ground, and an 80-acre pasture. Driven by a desire to cut input costs and work with nature, Tom has successfully integrated a five-way crop rotation with multi-species cover crop mixes and intensive grass-finished livestock grazing. He is passionate about helping his local community and fellow producers, actively collaborating with the Minnesota Soil Health Coalition to host annual field days and food health days. In this episode, John and Tom discuss: A small trial of rapeseed in the 1990s that dramatically improved soil structure, earthworm populations, and subsequent corn yields. How integrating a 40-way cover crop mix and livestock triggered a massive biological explosion of 25 to 30 earthworms per shovelful. Balancing organic and conventional no-till acres using a simple plus-and-minus grading system to track soil health trends. Grazing livestock on crop ground for up to 10 months out of the year to cut feed costs and to act as a natural, variable-rate fertilizer system. Shifting to an adaptive multi-crop rotation distributed the workload, eliminated grueling hours, and reduced seasonal stress. How designing smart crop sequences and planting winter rye allowed him to completely eliminate fungicides and insecticides on his conventional acres. Distributing his workload so that he can take weekends off and enjoy motorcycle rides during harvest season .

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded and edited, and it's ready to help you wrap up the week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed Tyler's buddy potting a hole-in-one, the Ace Race, Evan Bouchard getting hurt at the Worlds, and much more.The guys kicked off this week's episode of Real Life with a conversation about Chalmers coincidentally running into one of Tyler's friends at work and not recognizing him, despite having met many times before. That led Tyler to tell the story about that same friend getting a hole-in-one out in Mundare on a hole that was nearly the same length as the hole as the Ace Race. As you'll hear, the boys wanted to do something fun for the milestone, but the course didn't seem to have anything prepared.Shifting gears, the boys discussed Tyler's second attempt at the Ace Race and gave the boys a quick update on what he has planned for July 13th. Given that he couldn't get the job done last summer, Tyler walked through the adjustments he plans to make ahead of this second attempt to get the job done. Turning back to the Oilers, the boys discussed Evan Bouchard taking a hard hit at Worlds and needing assistance to get off the ice. Seeing Bouch get hurt prompted a conversation about whether or not it made sense for any of Edmonton's players to even go.Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with a breakdown of Drake's three new albums, beefs of the week, and how it seems like the MLB is destined for a lockout next season. Even with the lack of Oilers news, it's always remarkable to hear the boys avoid topics like absolute professionals. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Commencement season is here, and while we all love the tradition, let's be honest: a lot of graduation ceremonies are still operationally stuck in the 18th century. This week, Chase Rigby, CEO of Tassel, joins Mike Palmer to talk about what it actually takes to modernize the final milestone of the student lifecycle. Chase shares his path from teaching seventh-grade math and science with Teach For America to working as a product manager at Google, before ultimately using a search fund model to acquire Marching Order and evolve it into Tassel. We dig into why forward-thinking colleges are moving away from treating graduation as just a logistical headache and starting to view it as a strategic marketing and recruitment engine. Chase explains how Tassel is trying to upend the traditional business model by moving away from nickel-and-diming students with steep fees for their own achievement, and instead leveraging community gifting platforms that put money back in their pockets for rent or student debt. We also get into the tech side of things, discussing how they train AI models on a 20-year phonetic database to get broadcast-quality name pronunciations on stage, all while navigating the strict landscape of biometric privacy and user consent. It turns out getting that final touchpoint right pays massive dividends for lifelong alumni relations.

Mike Sperrazza and Mike Lomas go off the cuff this week, opening with the bizarre San Francisco YMCA story where a man exposed himself in the women's bathroom and the city's response was to ask people to limit their nakedness rather than enforce basic rules. They dig into the six-year anniversary of George Floyd and the coordinated left-wing messaging around it, the double standard applied when Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart introduced Donald Trump at a rally, and the latest round of unhinged reactions to Trump's hospital visit. The guys break down Hunter Biden's new Twitter account and his sobriety announcement (with a perfect Laura Loomer reply), Hillary Clinton's cringeworthy intro for Kathy Hochul claiming free school meals and money in New Yorkers' pockets, and Bernie Sanders railing against the oligarchy while owning three homes on a $174,000 salary. Mike and Mike tackle Gavin Newsom's dubious claim that California homelessness dropped 9 percent, get into Spencer Pratt's take on what actually helps addicts versus the NGO grift, and Mike Sperrazza shares a frustrating weekend story about unionized little league umpires demanding 30-minute breaks between kids' games. They close with thoughts on the passing of NASCAR's Kyle Busch at 41 and the importance of balance in life and finances.00:24 - San Francisco YMCA bathroom story 01:38 - Six-year anniversary of George Floyd and coordinated left messaging 06:56 - Jaxson Dart introduces Trump, gets attacked online 09:24 - Gunshots outside the White House and De Niro's unhinged rant 12:47 - Hunter Biden's sobriety tweet and Laura Loomer's response 14:31 - Hillary Clinton's intro for Kathy Hochul 21:30 - Game time: guessing California's homelessness drop under Newsom 28:43 - Bernie Sanders fighting the oligarchy from his three homes 35:00 - Unionized little league umpires and the problem with unions 42:43 - NASCAR's Kyle Busch passes at 41

What if failure hits differently depending on your gender?In this episode I speak with Deborah Grayson Riegel, an executive coach and author whose research across 1,100 women in 60 countries reveals why women experience setbacks more intensely than men, and what to do about it.We dig into why women tend to ruminate longer, and see failure as identity rather than event, and where those patterns come from.We explore the practical tools that can shift all of that: how to reframe failure, ask for better feedback, tackle invisible work, and build the kind of support network that helps you aim higher and recover faster.If you are a woman navigating setbacks, this episode will change how you think about failure and what becomes possible on the other side. And if you lead or work alongside women, it will make you a better teammate and leader."Women see failure as their identity, not an event." — Deborah Grayson RiegelYou'll hear aboutWhat failure really means and why it's broader. Why women personalise and ruminate more after setbacks. The five types of failure and which hit hardest. How failure patterns start from age five. The confidence gap versus the consequence gap. Shifting from "what if" to "even if I fail." How to ask for better, more specific feedback. Navigating non-promotable and invisible work. The Ground, Gather and Go framework. About Deborah:Deborah Grayson Riegel is a keynote speaker and consultant who teaches leadership communication for Wharton Business School, Duke Business School, and Columbia Business School.

In this episode of The Feminine Frequency Podcast, host Amy Natalie sits down with powerhouse entrepreneur and author Suzy Ashworth to explore the deep energetics behind her book, Infinite Receiving. Moving away from the traditional, untouchable "guru" archetype, Suzy brings a raw, lived-experience approach to manifestation, wealth creation, and identity evolution. Together, they unpack what it truly means to receive infinitely—not just during seasons of ease, but when life cracks us open through grief, shadow, and heavy human contrast. From the cellular shift required to hold seven-figure wealth to the sacred unlearning of tying self-worth to external validation, this conversation is a powerful activation for any woman ready to open her heart, break ancestral chains, and step into her sovereign power.Themes:Why true wealth requires an internal identity shift before the physical money ever hits your bank account, moving you out of "hoping and wishing" and into absolute cellular knowing.Why Infinite Receiving resonates so deeply with readers, noting that the collective is craving grounded, real-life human journeys rather than detached, otherworldly teachings.An intimate look at how facing deep grief and shadow expands our capacity to feel, shattering the "cages" we build around our hearts and forcing us to learn how to receive support.Embracing the bold expansion of believing you belong in every single room you stand in, and how breaking down internal barriers accelerates your alignment with high-frequency spaces.Understanding the dense energetics of physical reality and learning to let go of the anxious timeline-tracking that keeps you trapped in a frequency of lack.A beautiful reminder of our intrinsic, priceless nature, offering an invitation to unlearn the childhood conditioning that tells us we must perform or achieve to be worthy of love.How the modern women doing this deep energetic and financial work act as ancestral "chain breakers," shifting the consciousness of past and future generations.SPECIAL OFFER:

Chapters [00:00] Cold open and intro [01:18] Sammy's listener origin story [03:15] Backgrounds before bookkeeping [06:30] The porta potty adventure [11:00] Finding bookkeeping on YouTube [13:00] Five-week plan and first clients [16:00] Why paid ads flopped [18:30] Discovering networking as a strategy [21:00] Building one-to-one meeting habits [24:30] Shifting to strategic partnerships From Porta Potties to ProAdvisor Before bookkeeping, Sammy and Fred tried their hand at entrepreneurship the hard way — buying 20 used porta potties off a site called Crapper King, shipping them across the country on a semi-truck, and eventually moving them on Facebook Marketplace after a good pressure wash. The experience wasn't profitable, but it was formative. As Michael notes on the show, it gave them a layer of genuine empathy for clients: "They don't have all the answers, they're making mistakes, they're trying to figure it out." After a few more ideas, a YouTube video on starting a bookkeeping firm was all the spark Sammy needed. "I watched it, and I was like, well, if this guy can do it, Fred and I can do this." The Five-Week Launch Plan Once they committed to bookkeeping, Sammy and Fred moved fast. They built a five-week plan: get QuickBooks certified, become ProAdvisors, and land one client. Two large cleanup projects came through the QuickBooks ProAdvisor directory almost immediately — enough to justify going full-time. Fred describes those first weeks as equal parts doing the work and learning on the fly: "We were certified in QuickBooks, but it's like — we've got to figure out how this works. We've never done a QuickBooks cleanup for this type of company before." Why Paid Ads Weren't the Answer With their first projects underway, they turned to paid social media ads hoping to fill the pipeline. Six weeks and 15 or 16 leads later, the results were discouraging — contacts who were hard to reach and nowhere near ready to hire a bookkeeper. "We were finding they were all super unqualified," Fred says. That dead end turned out to be the pivot point. A conversation with a local small business attorney introduced a word they'd barely considered: networking. Networking as a Growth Engine Neither Sammy nor Fred would describe themselves as natural networkers — both lean introverted. But they committed fully, spending two to three months filling their days with open networking events and one-to-one coffee meetings. The accountability of working as a team made the difference: knowing the other person was putting in the effort kept each of them showing up. Fred's father, a career salesman, gave them the frame they needed: "Unseen, unheard, unsold." They tracked weekly one-to-one meeting goals, walked up to strangers, shook hands, and asked people to coffee — regardless of whether an obvious business connection was visible. Strategic Relationships Over Volume Over time, the approach evolved from broad networking to targeted relationship-building. Sammy describes the shift as following the data: "We took a step back and we were like, okay, what percentage of our referrals is coming from CPAs or whoever? And it's like, okay, well, if 80, 90% of our referrals are coming from these types of people, we need to go to rooms where there are these types of people." Tax preparers, business brokers, and other professionals who rarely attend networking events became the focus — making Mattingly & Ott's presence at those events even more valuable.

High school friends turned business partners, they launched their bookkeeping firm roughly a year and a half ago and went full-time within the first few months. Sammy brings a background in Big Four audit; Fred comes from investment management. Together they serve small, service-based businesses and have built their client base almost entirely through in-person networking and strategic referral relationships. Part 2 of their conversation covers how those relationships translate into referral systems and scalable growth. About the hostMichael PalmerMichael Palmer is the host of The Successful Bookkeeper podcast and co-founder of Pure Bookkeeping and The Successful Bookkeeper. He started this work because of his father — a brilliant electrical contractor who worked twice as hard as he should have had to, because nobody on the financial side was in his corner. That gap is what The Successful Bookkeeper exists to close. His view: bookkeepers are the most undervalued force in small business — and every bookkeeper who builds a real business changes two families: theirs, and their clients'.

Guest After 11 years at IBM, Brooke Erol left a "great job on paper" to pursue a more aligned, purpose-driven life. She founded Your Best Life Inc. to help professionals find meaning at work, and later Purposeful Business to support leaders in building people-centered organizations. She is the author of More Than A Paycheck and Create a Life You Love, and speaks globally on leadership and purposeful work. Summary In this conversation, career coach and author Brooke Erol explores the changing nature of work, fulfillment, and identity in an era shaped by burnout, layoffs, and artificial intelligence. Drawing from her own experience at IBM, she reflects on realizing early in her career that many people were "chasing the weekend" rather than finding meaning in their work. That realization eventually led her to write More Than a Paycheck, a guide designed to help individuals develop greater self-awareness and agency in their careers. Brooke argues that self-awareness is foundational to meaningful work, yet modern life leaves little room for reflection. She encourages people to intentionally create time to examine what energizes them, what no longer serves them, and which limiting beliefs may be shaping their choices. Throughout the discussion, she emphasizes that traditional career formulas—go to college, get a corporate job, retire happily—are no longer reliable in today's unstable job market. The conversation also examines the disruptive impact of AI, especially on younger workers and recent graduates, while highlighting the growing value of trade and skilled labor careers. Brooke encourages people to remain adaptable, continuously learn new skills, and consider side projects or entrepreneurial paths alongside traditional employment. The discussion closes with reflections on retirement, purpose, and identity. Brooke and Jeff agree that fulfillment comes not from stopping work entirely, but from continuing to contribute, learn, connect, and pursue activities that make life meaningful. The Essential Point Brooke's central message is that people must take greater ownership of their careers and lives by developing self-awareness, questioning inherited assumptions about work, and intentionally pursuing work that aligns with who they are. She also stresses that fulfillment and purpose are not luxuries reserved for retirement—they are essential parts of a healthy, sustainable life at every stage.

RAANAP: Brandon and Akiva Discuss Jaws Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) and Akiva Wienerkur (@keev26) need a podcast and every week, Rob and Akiva spin a wheel of listener-submitted podcast ideas, and whatever the wheel lands on is what they podcast about next. This week, Brandon and Akiva talk Jaws. With Rob in LA, Brandon Donlon hosts alongside Akiva Wienerkur for a special deep dive into the classic 1975 film Jaws, joined by Jaws superfan and collector Ryan. Shifting gears from Survivor to the iconic suspense of Amity Island, the trio unpacks what makes Jaws an enduring masterpiece, shares personal stories about childhood collections, and debates whether shark movies still make an impact today. The discussion opens with Brandon introducing Ryan, known for his impressive Jaws memorabilia—from VHS tapes and paper plates to signed collectibles. Ryan reveals how his collection began, the sentimental value behind each item, and even his experiences at Jaws-themed events and conventions. The group shares their own stories of buying, and sometimes regretting, fandom merchandise, comparing Power Rangers pillows to rare Jaws artifacts. Key discussion points include: Ryan guiding listeners through his unique Jaws collection, including napkins, paper plates, laserdiscs, and autographs from Richard Dreyfuss The difference between the Jaws book and film, covering book-exclusive plot twists and why the movie's adaptation stands out A scene-by-scene retelling of Jaws from Brandon's fresh perspective, including discovering famous lines, the impact of classic scares, and missing details when watching on an iPad mini The iconic USS Indianapolis monologue, how real-life locals were cast in minor roles, and stories from Martha's Vineyard Who deserves a sought-after autograph at a Jaws convention—and what it’s like meeting the actors behind even the smallest roles As Jaws approaches its 50th anniversary, Brandon, Avika, and Ryan ponder how the film's legacy compares to modern shark movies, dive into sequel absurdities, and weigh in on whether Jaws still makes viewers avoid the ocean. Which classic line stuck with Brandon and did the first viewing on a small screen dampen its punch? Get fresh perspectives and plenty of movie lore by listening to the full episode!
