Ever notice how overriding your God-nudges feels gritty—foggy mind, tight chest, simmering resentment—while obeying (even when it's hard) brings a strange, surprising ease? This episode names self-betrayal—those moments we say yes when we mean no, delay what the Spirit asked us to do, or trade conviction for approval—and shows why obedience heals.

Have you ever felt totally off but couldn’t explain why? Did you ever figure out what was causing it? Today, Jay sits down with Dr. Sara Szal, a Harvard- and MIT-trained physician, researcher, and bestselling author, to dive into a topic that affects everyone but rarely gets the attention it deserves: hormones. Together, they break down what hormones really are, how stress and daily habits can throw them off balance, and why understanding these powerful chemical messengers can completely transform the way we think about health. Dr. Sara shares how simple changes, from better sleep and mindful eating to managing stress, can help reset your body’s natural rhythm in just a few days. This is a conversation that beautifully bridges science and self-awareness, revealing just how deeply our biology and emotions are connected. Jay and Dr. Sara also explore one of today’s most misunderstood topics: women’s health and birth control. Dr. Sara explains how the pill, though widely used, can disrupt hormone balance, increase inflammation, and even affect fertility, insights many women never hear about. She breaks down what’s really happening inside the body and offers practical ways to restore balance through nutrition, testing, and natural alternatives. Together, they also discuss how emotional stress and relationships deeply influence hormonal health, and why learning to understand and manage your body’s signals is one of the most empowering steps you can take for your well-being. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Balance Your Hormones Naturally How to Manage Stress and Lower Cortisol How to Reset Your Body in Just 3 Days How to Heal Fatigue by Listening to Your Body How to Transition Off Birth Control Safely How to Support Fertility and Hormone Health How to Regulate Before You React When you slow down, nourish yourself, and make small, consistent changes, you create space for balance to return.

Did you know that over the next two decades, trillions of dollars will pass from one generation to the next?The question is—what kind of legacy will that transfer leave behind? Today, Boyd Bailey joins us to talk about how generosity is about more than dollars—it's about discipleship, financial literacy, and passing on wisdom along with wealth.Boyd Bailey is the President of the National Christian Foundation (NCF) in Georgia, an underwriter of Faith and Finance. He is also the author of several books, including his latest, The Power of Generosity: Experiencing God's Amazing Abundance – How to Change the World Through Acts of Kindness.What Makes NCF UniqueFounded in 1982 by Larry Burkett, Ron Blue, and Terry Parker, the National Christian Foundation (NCF) has helped mobilize over $21 billion for more than 90,000 charities and ministries worldwide.From the beginning, NCF has understood that when you carry Christian in your name, you also carry a sacred responsibility. Their mission is to walk alongside believers—to help them make the most of what God has entrusted to them—and they always start with the heart.Before discussing strategy, NCF encourages donors to discern God's call on their generosity through prayerful consideration. Only after that heart work do they explore practical tools—how to give wisely, save on taxes, and maximize Kingdom impact.One of NCF's most effective tools is the Giving Fund, a type of donor-advised fund that functions like a “charitable checking account.” Even with limited tech experience, you can open a Giving Fund online in less than a minute. It makes giving spontaneous and simple—whether you're inspired at a church service or a fundraising dinner.But convenience isn't the goal—discipleship is. Many families establish Giving Funds for their children, helping them embark on their own journey of generosity. And NCF encourages creative giving, too—through appreciated stock, real estate, or even a business interest—allowing donors to give more while paying less in taxes.Generosity and Wise StewardshipStewardship and generosity aren't opposites—they're two sides of the same coin. Stewardship manages what God provides; generosity releases it for His purposes. Without generosity, stewardship is incomplete.As Paul writes in 1 Timothy 6:17–18, believers are to “put their hope in God, who richly provides,” and to “be rich in good deeds.” Generosity, then, isn't just about giving—it's about protecting our hearts from the idols of wealth and security that compete for our devotion.For those struggling to give during uncertain times, it helps to broaden the definition of generosity. It's not limited to money—it also includes time, attention, and hospitality.Still, fear and busyness often prevent families from discussing giving or wealth transfer. The best approach? Plan early. Invite everyone. Don't go it alone. Bring in a trusted advisor or friend to help facilitate the conversation. Why wait until after you're gone for your kids to experience the joy of giving? Use your influence now to model Kingdom-minded generosity.A Simple Way to StartAs year-end approaches, consider whether an NCF Giving Fund could help you take your next faithful step in generosity. It's simple to set up, easy to use, and profoundly impactful for both you and those you bless.To learn more—or to open your own Giving Fund—visit FaithFi.com/NCF.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My husband and I are helping our young adult son build credit. I've heard you discuss secured credit cards, but I'm also curious about whether utility bills can serve a similar purpose. You mentioned something about reporting—where does that information actually go when utilities are reported? Also, my husband and I have been debt-free for years—not even a mortgage. We share one credit card, and he was listed on it with me. We thought that would help both of our credit scores, but recently discovered that his credit disappeared. Do we need to specifically list him as an “authorized user” for it to be counted toward his credit history? I'm not sure what went wrong.I'm considering changing financial advisors and would like to understand the key concerns to keep in mind—whether it's switching to a new advisor within the same company or transferring my investments to a different institution. How does that process work?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)National Christian Foundation (NCF)The Power of Generosity: Experiencing God's Amazing Abundance – How to Change the World Through Acts of Kindness by Boyd BaileyExperian BoostWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Healthspan isn't just built in the gym — it's shaped by the choices you make all day long. Cardiovascular exercise physiologist Dr. Jim Walter shares how his father's early passing drove his mission to help people extend their healthspan through simple, science-backed daily movements. He explains why the “150 minutes per week” guideline often discourages beginners, introduces his “Move More” approach for adding activity into ordinary tasks, and reveals research showing how even 2,000 extra steps or standing breaks can reduce disease risk and improve brain health. This empowering conversation reframes movement as the most accessible medicine for living longer and better.The information presented in Fully Alive is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

In this week's episode, Paul Andrews goes back to basics to tackle one of the trickiest and most important chord changes for beginner guitarists: moving from the C chord to the G chord. He breaks down why this chord change matters, the challenges beginners face, his top practical tips for smoother transitions, and suggests four popular songs to practice your new skills.Key Talking PointsWhy the C to G Chord Change Is So ImportantThis change pops up constantly in popular music—think pop, rock, country, and folk.Although it's tricky, mastering this chord change is crucial for building your foundation as a guitarist.Challenges Beginners Face:No pivot fingers or common tones — all fingers must move.Big distance between the chord shapes.Stray or muted strings as fingers move.Timing issues that interrupt a song's flow.Tips & Tricks to Improve Your C to G Chord Changes:Focus on Shape, Sound, and Speed—in That OrderLock in the shape before worrying about speed.Isolate and practice each chord using the “hand on knee” technique and “folded corners” approach to get fingers down at the same time.Minimize Unnecessary MovementKeep fingers close to the strings—less travel equals faster changes.Target PracticeEnsure each finger lands directly where it needs to go.Air TimeStart forming the next chord shape before your fingers reach the strings.Strumming TechniquesUse the “windshield wipers” method—keep your strumming hand moving even if it means hitting open strings momentarily.Try “leaving the party early”—let go of the chord slightly before the change to give your fingers more time to get in position.Exercise for Tracking Progress:Set a timer for 30 seconds and count how many times you can change from C to G and back, one strum per chord. Track your progress over time, but be patient!Practice Songs Featuring the C to G Change:“Love Me Do” (The Beatles) – Primarily G and C, great for simple repetition.“Leaving on a Jet Plane” (John Denver) – Focuses on C and G with the occasional D chord.“Hey Joe” (Jimi Hendrix) – Five-chord progression, includes C to G in the loop.“Ring of Fire” (Johnny Cash) – Fast-paced, lots of C to G transitions.Additional ResourcesFree Guide:8 Simple Ways to Make Faster Progress on GuitarDownload Paul's free PDF and accompanying videos to supercharge your practice.Watch the Episode:The video version is available on the Beginner Guitar Academy YouTube channel or at BGAPodcast.com.Get Structured Support:Try Beginner Guitar Academy for 14 days for just $1 at beginnerguitaracademy.com for lessons, community, and more resources.Closing Thoughts:With regular practice and by following Paul's tips, your C to G chord changes will get quicker and smoother. Don't rush—progress will come with consistency!

What do you really want the second half of your life to look like? Being a doormat for others, then resenting it? Saying yes, when you really mean no? Doing more tasks or more work, taking responsibility for everything, and feeling overwhelmed in your life? This can be how so many of us in midlife feel, but I'm here to tell you there IS another way. In this episode, I sit down with expert Beatriz Albina to talk about a challenge so many women face but can't always name—patterns of overgiving, perfectionism, and the ultimate people-pleasing trap. Beatriz introduces the concept of emotional outsourcing and how it quietly drives these behaviors, leaving us feeling stuck and drained. Together, we discuss how reframing your mindset is a powerful tool for reclaiming your emotional well-being. Plus, Beatriz gives us a sneak peek into her brand-new book, End Emotional Outsourcing—a guide to finding freedom, balance, and true self-connection. Tune in here to reignite joy in your life, and find the inner peace you've been craving for years! Beatriz Albina Beatriz (Béa) Albina, NP, MPH, SEP (she/her) is a UCSF-trained Family Nurse Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Master Certified Somatic Life Coach, and author of the book "End Emotional Outsourcing: a Guide to Overcoming Codependent, Perfectionist and People Pleasing Habits". She's dedicated to helping people socialized as women reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and rewire their minds to break free from codependency, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. Béa hosts the Feminist Wellness Podcast, and holds a Master's degree in Public Health from Boston University School of Public Health and a BA in Latin American Studies from Oberlin College. IN THIS EPISODE What is emotional outsourcing, and how can it impact women? Getting back to the basics for our emotional needs How our emotions lie in our nervous system– not just our minds Calming techniques you can do in 5 seconds, anytime, anywhere Detaching from labels like ‘co-dependent' and ‘perfectionist' How to stay regulated while also setting boundaries Why reframing your mindset is so important for healing All about Beatriz's book: End Emotional Outsourcing QUOTES “This is what happens when we get activated or triggered in our nervous system. When we start being mean to ourselves, when we ignore our impulses, when we project, when we take things personally, when we get offended, all these things– our nervous system is in a different time and place.” “That's the self-worth work. Saying, ‘I trust myself, I believe in myself, and so I know that this isn't a problem.' And that's that. Not allowing any other thoughts to enter your beautiful mind space, your world, your body. It's really vital work.” “What our children and our partners, and our friends and our communities and ourselves want and need from us the most, most, most, is presence. Intunement and presence.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Use code ENERGIZED and get $100 off on your CAROL Bike purchase https://carolbike.pxf.io/GK3LaE Preorder the Perimenopause Revolution and get your VIP ticket to the Perimenopause Solution event http://hayh.site/pr_bl_ap-snyder_a_opt Order Béa's book: End Emotional Outsourcing HERE http://beatrizalbina.com/book Béa's Website Béa's Instagram RELATED EPISODES #629: Unlocking Emotional Resilience with Awareness, Lifestyle and Tools to Regulate Your Stress Triggers with Dr. Drew Ramsey #553: Simple Ways to Start Feeling Calm and Safe and How to Align Your Nervous System for More Abundance with Kate Northrup #565: How to Live in a State of Ease and Flow vs. Overwhelm and Resentment + Reclaiming Your Aliveness with Alexi Panos #569: How to Build a Strong Emotional Connection with Your Partner and How to Transform Your Love Life with Vanessa and Xander Marin

If you're tired of chasing one-off ebook/course sales and want income that stacks every month, a low-key membership is the fastest, simplest path—built with tools you already use (Zoom + Facebook/WhatsApp + your email service). In my latest Blogger Genius episode, I break down the exact approach (plus 2 copy-and-paste AI prompts) to design, launch, and grow a membership that compounds without burning you out. Show Notes: MiloTree Free Plan Low-Key Membership Prompt Pack Digital Product Ladder AI Prompt (Free Download) 6 Purchasing Triggers Test Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: iTunes YouTube Spotify TL;DR (Problem → Solution) Problem: One-off product sales force you to keep launching and promoting to make money and for many people that is hard. Solution: A low-key membership: 2 Zoom sessions/month + lightweight community + simple emails. That's it. Recurring payments keep coming in—even when you're not launching. Why “Low-Key Memberships” Win in 2025 Recurring revenue > one-offs: Each new member adds to your baseline. Members stay for community, not modules: Overstuffed content = churn. Connection and momentum = retention. Zero tech headaches: Use platforms people already check daily (FB/WhatsApp) and Zoom they already know. Real-world results shared in the episode: Weight-loss creator: $300/mo → $2,800/mo with Zoom + private FB group. Anxiety coach: $4,100/mo with WhatsApp + biweekly calls. Your Starter Stack (Keep It Simple) Delivery: 2 Zoom sessions/month (Teaching + Q&A). Community: Facebook Group or WhatsApp for quick wins + peer support. Communication: Your existing email service provider (Mailchimp, MailerLite, Flodesk, ConvertKit). Payments & pages: MiloTree—AI sales pages, Stripe checkout, recurring billing. Start free to grow your list; upgrade when you're ready to accept membership payments. 7-Day Launch Plan (No Pre-Recorded Library) Day 1: Pick your promise (one painful problem you'll help members solve monthly). Day 2: Post your interest waitlist with a freebie (see below). Day 3: Price: $27–$97/mo. Add a 10× annual option (e.g., $47/mo or $470/yr). Day 4: Create an outline for your first month's sessions. Day 5: Open your MiloTree membership (AI sales page + Stripe billing). Day 6: DM warm leads (from FB groups/WhatsApp/LinkedIn) with your waitlist link. Day 7: Host a founders' kickoff (set expectations, celebrate early wins). Pro tip: Build with your members. Teach what they ask for next. That “fluid plan” keeps content laser-relevant and retention high. Copy-and-Paste AI Prompts (Use These to Build It Fast) Prompt #1 — Design your membership “Design a low-key membership for my expertise in [YOUR NICHE]. I want something simple that builds community using free platforms people already know. First, validate my niche using these six purchasing triggers: makes money, saves money, saves time, moves toward happiness, moves away from pain, raises social status (explain which apply). Then create a concept that: meets twice monthly (1 teaching call, 1 Q&A via Zoom); uses Facebook Groups/Discord/WhatsApp for interaction; uses email for schedules/recordings/updates; focuses on implementation (not info overload); builds naturally without tons of pre-created content; develops a supportive community; and is priced $27–$97/mo. Finally, give me the name, core promise, monthly structure, and an engagement + referral strategy.” Prompt #2 — Find your first members “I'm launching the [MEMBERSHIP NAME] from the previous prompt. Give me the 10 best places to attract ideal members with specific strategies. Include communities, social platforms, networking, and partnerships. For each, show how to introduce my offer naturally (not salesy), what value to lead with, and how to start DMs that convert. Also give me 5 content ideas that demonstrate expertise and nudge people toward ongoing support.” Pricing & Positioning (Simple Rules) Start $27–$97/mo; add a 10× annual plan to boost cash flow and commitment. Promise one result per month (not a giant library). Sell outcomes: “From stuck to consistent posting,” “From chaos to meal-prep routine,” “From anxiety spiral to daily calm.” Retention Playbook (Why Members Stay) Two predictable touchpoints (Teaching + Q&A). Community micro-wins (weekly check-ins, share wins, peer feedback). Fluid curriculum (teach what members ask for next). Use MiloTree to Power It (Free → Paid, Without Friction) Start free: Use MiloTree Free Plan to build your list fast—create an AI-generated opt-in page for your freebie, store the file, and deliver it automatically. When ready to charge: Upgrade to accept recurring membership payments—MiloTree auto-generates your sales page with AI and runs Stripe billing for you. Set monthly + annual prices in minutes. Freebie to Kickstart Signups Offer something your ideal member can use this week, e.g.: “7-Day Kickstart Calendar” “Swipe Files: Posts/Emails/Templates” “Quick-Wins Checklist” My freebie: Low-Key Membership AI Prompt Pack—the exact prompts above, ready to paste and launch. (Grab it below.) Show Notes / Resources MiloTree Free Plan – start building your email list and delivering freebies today. Low-Key Membership AI Prompt Pack (Free) – copy, paste, launch. Set Up Your Membership in MiloTree – add your name, price (monthly + annual), and let AI build your page; Stripe handles recurring payments. FAQ Do I need a content library before launch? No. Teach live, capture recordings, and let member questions shape the roadmap. That's what keeps it relevant and light for you. Which platform for community? Pick where your audience already is (FB Group, Instagram, Discord, WhatsApp, Slack, etc.). Lower friction = higher engagement. How soon can I hit $1K/month? Many creators reach their first $1K within ~90 days using this simple stack and outreach. Your mileage varies—but the model compounds. Call to Action
Trust grows every time you follow through with what you said you would do. When you break those promises, even small ones, you chip away at your own confidence. It's not about being perfect, it's about being consistent enough that you can believe yourself again.

What if tuning into Spirit wasn't complicated at all but as natural as asking for advice from someone who loves you? The truth is, your guides, angels, and loved ones are always near, ready to support you with signs, clarity, and encouragement. In this illuminating episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with MaryAnn DiMarco, an internationally recognized spiritual teacher, motivational speaker, author, and psychic medium, widely known as The Medium Mentor. We talk about her latest book,The Guidebook: Mapping Out Life's Journey with Spirit by Your Side, and the powerful ways we can all strengthen our relationship with Spirit. Together, we dive into the distinct role's angels, guides, and loved ones play, and how each can offer wisdom and comfort on our path. MaryAnn also shares practical ways to ask for signs, recognize synchronicities, and surrender to divine timing in manifestation. She opens up about her own journey through comparison, self-judgment, and menopause, and how embracing authenticity and forgiveness became catalysts for transformation. This conversation is both grounding and inspiring - offering tools, insights, and gentle reminders that you are never alone, and that Spirit is always guiding you toward your highest good.
