Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mreapodcastWhat if we could build a real estate business that pays us month after month, not just deal by deal?In this episode, we sit down with Justin Rourke and John Martin to break down the real business of property management. They show us how they built a recurring revenue model alongside their sales business, and how that one move opened the door to even more opportunity through construction, roofing, and long-term client relationships.In this practical conversation, we get into the numbers, the people, and the systems with Justin and John. They walk us through how they get paid, how they staff the business, how they win referrals from agents, and what it really takes to manage more than 850 homes. The two also share the hard truth about property management: the industry can create stable income, but it takes time, trust, and a strong operations machine to be successful.If we have ever wondered whether property management could become a real wealth-building arm of our business, this episode gives us a clear look at the model.Resources:Visit: Tower Property Management at towerprops.comOrder the Millionaire Real Estate Agent Playbook | Volume 3Connect with Jason:LinkedinProduced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

In this episode, Travis is joined by his producer Eric for a candid and entertaining conversation about taxes, refunds, and the realities of earning more money. From the benefits of hiring a CPA to debates around flat taxes and government policy, they break down complex financial topics in a relatable way—while sharing personal experiences and insights that highlight how everyday earners can better navigate the system. On this episode we talk about: Why hiring a CPA becomes essential as your income streams grow How tax systems work (and why they feel overly complicated) The debate between flat tax vs. progressive tax structures Recent increases in average tax refunds and what's driving them How most people are using their tax refunds (and what they should do instead) Top 3 Takeaways As your income becomes more complex (side hustles, business income, 1099s), a CPA can save you significantly more than they cost. The tax system can unintentionally discourage earning more due to higher marginal rates and complexity—understanding how brackets actually work is key. Most people use tax refunds to pay off debt or save, but proactively managing taxes year-round is more powerful than relying on a refund. Notable Quotes "When you start making more money, a CPA is worth their weight in gold." "Anything that disincentivizes growth and betterment seems like a strange system." "Money only solves your money problems—but it's easier to solve the rest with money in the bank."

In today's Ask Abundance, I'm joined by Abundance consultant Rebecca A. E. Smith, Ph.D., and we're talking about the slow periods nobody warns you about. The summer dips, the post-holiday drop-offs, the stretches where the phone just stops ringing. We get into why it's not a sign you're failing, why the therapist Facebook groups are the worst place to turn when you're spiraling, and how to plan your year so a slow month feels like a reset instead of a red flag. If you've ever watched your caseload dip and convinced yourself your practice is falling apart, this one's for you. Sponsored by TherapyNotes®: Looking to switch EHRs?

The new i7 swaps its old 105.7kWh battery for a 112.5kWh pack using Gen6 cylindrical cells, pushing maximum range from 387 miles to 452 miles and DC charging speed from 195kW to 250kW, while adaptive dampers and active rear steering become standard across the whole range.The styling adopts BMW's Neue Klasse design language with slimmer crystal-embedded headlights, a horizontal-slat grille, 22-inch alloys as standard, and up to 500 exterior colour combinations including a new two-tone option. Inside, the i7 becomes the first BMW to offer a front-passenger touchscreen (14.6 inches), gains a 17.9-inch central display and a sweeping 43.3-inch Panoramic iDrive dashboard, while rear passengers keep their 31.3-inch 8K cinema screen and 35-speaker Bowers & Wilkins system.***RIVIAN STARTS R2 PRODUCTION IN ILLINOISRivian has begun production of the R2 at its Normal, Illinois plant, with CFO Claire McDonough confirming the start in a Reuters interview and first customer deliveries expected later this spring. Reservation holders will receive configuration invitations in June, with the $57,990 Launch Edition shipping first, followed by the $53,990 Premium later in 2026 and the more affordable Standard and entry variants arriving through 2027.Rivian expects R2 to cost less than half of what an R1 costs to build once higher volumes are reached in 2027, and the vehicle also underpins the company's broader ambitions including the $2,500 Autonomy+ self-driving package and an Uber robotaxi partnership worth up to $1.25 billion across 25 cities.***GM SAYS NO DELAY TO ELECTRIC TRUCK PROGRAMMEGM publicly denied cancelling any electric trucks after Crain's Detroit Business — citing three anonymous sources — reported that the automaker had indefinitely delayed its next-generation electric truck programme, which had been targeting a 2028 production start for refreshed versions of the Silverado EV, GMC Sierra EV, Hummer, and Escalade IQ. GM told Motor1 that "EVs remain the end game" and confirmed no impact to current electric truck production, though the company gave no timeline for when the next-generation programme might resume.Supplier executives and analysts told Crain's they do not expect a new generation of GM's all-electric truck line until 2030 or beyond, suggesting the delay is substantial even if GM stops short of calling it a cancellation.***SMART #2 SETS UP FORTWO RETURNSmart has unveiled the Smart #2 concept, a two-door, two-seat electric city car that revives the spirit of the original Fortwo, with a production model expected to launch in October 2026. Built on the Electric Compact Architecture platform, it offers an estimated 186-mile range — a dramatic leap over the old EQ Fortwo's 58-mile range — along with a 10–80% charge time of under 20 minutes and vehicle-to-load capability.Expected to measure around 106 inches (2.7 metres) long, the Smart #2 would be smaller than the Dacia Spring and Renault Twingo, placing it among Europe's smallest new EVs at launch.***ID. BUZZ ADDS AWD AND NEW TECHVolkswagen Commercial Vehicles is rolling out a 2026 model year update for the ID. Buzz this summer, headlined by the new Pro 4MOTION variant that pairs a 210kW rear motor with a front motor for a combined 250kW and raises towing capacity to 1.8 tonnes on the standard wheelbase. The update also brings one-pedal driving capable of bringing the vehicle to a full stop, a new Innovision infotainment system with an integrated app store, traffic-light-responsive Connected Travel Assist, a welcome return to physical steering wheel buttons, and optional vehicle-to-load capability at up to 2.0kW.***CHARGEPOINT LAUNCHES 600KW EXPRESS SOLOChargePoint has unveiled the Express Solo, a standalone DC fast charger capable of delivering up to 600kW, which the company says sets a new benchmark for public charging in the US. The unit supports two simultaneous sessions, accepts direct DC input for integration with on-site battery storage, enables bidirectional charging, and uses an Omni Port combining CCS1 and NACS connectors — all at a claimed 30% lower purchase and operating cost than comparable high-power chargers.***FRANCE SETS 2035 ROAD CHARGING PLANFrance's government has published a national strategy to deploy around 30,000 EV charging points on motorways and national roads by 2035, targeting corridors that carry roughly one third of all traffic despite representing just 2% of total road length. The plan includes approximately 22,000 fast chargers at around 150kW for light vehicles across 900 service areas — a fivefold capacity increase — plus 8,000 heavy-duty charging points across 560 locations.***COKE CANADA ADDS VOLVO ELECTRIC TRUCKSCoca-Cola Canada Bottling is expanding its electric fleet to nearly 40 vehicles by adding Volvo VNR Electric trucks in Quebec City and the Vancouver area, building on a 2023 pilot programme that tested six of the trucks in real-world conditions. Each VNR Electric uses a six-battery configuration with a range of up to 440km, and the expansion is supported by a new 180kW Heliox Flex charging station in Quebec City and two additional chargers in Vancouver.***PG&E ADDS CYBERTRUCK TO V2G PILOTPG&E and Tesla have added the Cybertruck to PG&E's residential vehicle-to-grid programme, using Tesla's Powershare Gateway and Universal Wall Connector in what is the first AC-based V2G application approved for California customers. Participants can receive up to $4,500 in incentives for bidirectional charging equipment and earn additional compensation for exporting electricity back to the grid during peak demand events.***VOLKSWAGEN SETS GERMAN V2G LAUNCH FOR 2026Volkswagen and its energy subsidiary Elli plan to launch a fully integrated vehicle-to-grid service for private customers in Germany in Q4 2026, with pre-registration opening in June, promising annual earnings of €700–€900 under favourable conditions. Elli will manage the full stack — dynamic tariff, DC bidirectional charger, smart meter integration, and a control app — backed by around one million bidirectional-capable MEB-platform EVs already on European roads.

AGENDA: 04:00 —
Welcome to another episode of The Rizzuto Show—your favorite funny podcast where absolutely nothing stays on track and somehow that's the whole point.We kick things off with what should've been a simple conversation about trucks… but quickly turns into a full-blown debate about questionable paint colors, “old man bronze,” and why some vehicles look like they were designed during a midlife crisis. Naturally, this spirals into opinions nobody asked for—but you're getting anyway.From there, things only get more chaotic. The gang revisits the now-infamous fart investigation (yes, it's still a thing), celebrates Earth Day with a mix of genuine concern and complete sarcasm, and asks the hard-hitting questions like: why do we pick up dog poop… but ignore actual trash everywhere? Society, explain yourself.Then comes the tech paranoia. Smart glasses are back, and apparently, so is the fear that you're being recorded by some guy pretending to “just check the weather.” The crew dives into how quickly useful tech turns into creepy behavior, and whether we're all just one update away from living in a full-blown dystopia.And just when you think the episode has peaked… we hit you with one of the most unforgettable stories in recent show history. It involves a tick. It involves a childhood memory. And it involves a solution that feels wildly unnecessary and slightly traumatic. You've been warned.We also cover water snobs (yes, that's a real personality now), weird phobias like being afraid of turtles, and why spending time alone in nature might actually make you feel less alone—unless, of course, nature tries to bite you first.If you're looking for a funny podcast that mixes ridiculous stories, real-life nonsense, and the kind of conversations that somehow go from zero to “how did we get here?” in seconds… this is it.

"What's better than bringing home a life you saved instead of a souvenir that just sits on a shelf?" This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund, OcuTrap, and The Community Cat Clinic. What does it take to transform a country's approach to stray animal care? In this inspiring episode of the Community Cats Podcast, host Stacy LeBaron reconnects with Julie Kelley—entrepreneur, philanthropist, and founder of Let's Be Smart Greece—to explore how one vision is reshaping feline welfare across borders. Julie shares the story behind her move from the United States to Greece and how witnessing widespread stray populations sparked a mission rooted in education, community collaboration, and sustainable solutions. Through Let's Be Smart, Julie has developed a multifaceted model that blends Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR), municipality partnerships, and innovative "Smart Yards" to create safer, more structured environments for community cats. Listeners will get an inside look at Julie's unique shelter concept—a home-like villa where cats live freely alongside volunteers from around the world. This approach not only improves feline well-being but also accelerates socialization and adoption success. Julie also discusses the organization's growing "adoption vacation" initiative, helping tourists responsibly bring Greek cats home after proper medical preparation. The conversation dives into recent legislative progress in Greece, the importance of youth education, and the evolving role of municipalities in animal welfare. Julie's long-term vision? A global shift toward more humane, integrated shelter models that treat animals as family—not inventory. Whether you're involved in rescue, advocacy, or simply love cats, this episode offers a powerful reminder: meaningful change happens when compassion meets strategy.

How are your finances looking for Q2? In this episode of the Uplevel Dairy Podcast, Peggy Coffeen interviews Steve Schweoer of Compeer Financial on what financially strong dairy farms are doing in 2026 amid tight first-half cash flow, lower milk prices, and higher costs of capital. Steve notes many producers prepaid 2026 expenses in 2025, easing near-term pressure, and expects improved markets in the second half while emphasizing preparing during good times by building working capital and paying down lines of credit. He advises maintaining a three-to-five-year capital replacement plan using “needs vs. wants,” evaluating land purchases case by case, and not letting taxes drive decisions. Key profitability levers include beef-on-dairy and managing net herd replacement cost, feed efficiency and ration cost, strong components and herd health, disciplined capital spending, and low employee turnover. He urges producers to know their cost of production, keep a consistent operating model, and bring lenders and advisors a long-term plan including risk management and family goals.This episode is sponsored by Compeer Financial.

They discuss how corporate media incentives and social-media dynamics amplify outrage, distraction, and cherry-picked narratives, while foreign coverage is limited by cost and lack of permanent TV presences in Ukraine. Speakers contrast Ukraine's good-faith negotiation posture with Russia's unserious delegations and propaganda, and contend Russia is increasingly weakened by drone-centric warfare and growing internal economic stress, including deficits, liquidity concerns, toxic loans, and elite asset seizures. They cite dissenting signals from Russian economic and nationalist circles and suggest Putin is detached from reality due to distorted information. The conversation explores post-Putin scenarios, risks of forced ceasefire pressure, Europe and Ukraine security alignment.----------

The Giants gained a second top-10 pick at No. 10, but they gave up Dexter Lawrence, arguably the best player on the roster and the one force they could least afford to lose in the middle of the defense. Was this a smart reset that gives New York real draft flexibility, or a costly bet in a weak draft that could backfire if the replacement plan is not good enough?Follow the show on Spotify so you do not miss the full draft-week chaos, and if you enjoyed this episode, leave a 5-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts. Did the Giants make the right call moving Dex for No. 10, or did they just create a bigger problem than one pick can solve?Drew and Rob react to the now-official Dexter Lawrence trade to Cincinnati, the extension that came with it, and the brutal tradeoff at the center of the move: the Giants got another premium draft asset, but they lost the kind of interior presence you do not replace one-for-one. That is the heart of this episode. Was No. 10 enough to justify moving your best defensive player? And in a draft they do not exactly treat like a gold mine at the top, was this the right bet to make right now?The guys dig into both sides without pretending this is simple. They talk through why the Giants may have felt they had no clean option left, why Dexter may have simply wanted out, and why this does not read like a move the team wanted to make lightly. They also get into the real risk now hanging over the draft: if you are not getting a player as good as Dexter with that pick, then how exactly are you making the roster better overall? Is the answer to patch the room with veteran defensive linemen, draft multiple bodies, and try to build a deeper front even if there is no true replacement? Or does the extra top-10 pick push the Giants toward attacking other weak spots and trusting scheme, depth, and volume to offset what they just lost?From there, the conversation turns to what this changes for draft week. The show leans hard into the idea that New York now has options, but also more pressure. There is talk about whether the Giants should use one pick on a premium defender and the other on offense, whether Jordan Tyson now makes more sense as part of the plan, and whether the smarter move is still to trade down and stack more assets in a class with a lot of questions. The most important point never changes: this deal only works if the Giants turn flexibility into multiple good players, because nobody is walking through that door as a one-pick Dexter Lawrence replacement.There is also plenty of fan emotion in this one, because that is what a move like this deserves. This is not a calm, detached breakdown. It is a real debate about whether the Giants just made lemonade out of lemons or whether they are talking themselves into a wrong bet because the relationship had run its course. If you wanted a clean, easy answer, this episode does not fake one. It wrestles with the cost, the draft fallout, the replacement paths, and the bigger question every Giants fan is asking right now: did this move make the future stronger, or just make the present harder to survive?Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Have you ever opened a package so beautiful you hesitated to even throw it away, or felt like it Have you ever bought something and immediately felt like the packaging itself changed how valuable it seemed? Like before you even used the product, your perception was already different? That's something Jason Wong talks about a lot. He's the founder of Paking Duck, and he's also built and scaled multiple product businesses before moving into packaging full-time. And his argument is pretty simple. most founders underestimate packaging completely. Not just as design, but as something that can influence trust, conversions, and how people perceive value instantly. Because when it's done well, packaging doesn't just hold a product… it actually becomes part of how the product sells itself. So it makes you wonder, how many businesses are leaving that advantage on the table without even realizing it? In this episode, we discuss: [00:00] Introduction [01:58] What founders miss about packaging [03:14] The Apple packaging effect [05:35] How packaging increases profit and reduces cost [09:45] Jason's origin story [13:44] The $250K viral product in a week [18:02] How immigration shaped grit and perspective [23:28] Transition from product founder to packaging founder [34:00] OBVI case: ~70% higher conversions from PR boxes [35:33] 3 key areas for packaging audits [49:18] Why network with successful founders [50:55] Advice to his younger self [52:05] Where to connect with Jason [52:28] The Paking Duck origin story Notable Quotes [00:13] “I discovered entrepreneurship when I was young, purely out of survival.” – Jaso [05:35] “ Great packaging can save you money. A smart design can reduce weight, reduce damage.”– Jason [12:27] “I'm an opportunist. I see things that have a need, and I know how to fill that demand.” – Jason [06:51] “ Everybody that buys your product, the one thing you know they're gonna open is the packaging.” – Billy [18:02] “ I think when you're an immigrant, you have so much to prove.” – Jason [24:44] “ Packaging is often forgotten. No one really thinks about packaging, but everyone needs it.”– Jason [39:58] “ I think influencers are not going to be as powerful as they used to be because of a lot of these AI avatars.” – Jason [38:11] “We don't run a single ad. We don't do cold email. We don't go to conventions. And we're still getting so many clients because of AI.” – Jason Jason Wong Website: https://www.pakingduck.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/imjasonwong/ Instagram: Billy Samoa Saleebey LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/billysamoa/ Email: billy@podify.com and saleebey@gmail.com Insight Out Website: https://www.insightoutshow.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Spring break in Los Angeles sounded like a dream…until the bills—and a four-hour flight delay—set in. In this solo episode, Farnoosh recaps her family's trip (theme parks, travel hiccups, and a surprising airline perk that saved the day) and what it reveals about the rising cost of travel right now.Then, a look at where retirees are heading next. A new report finds more older Americans choosing cities like New York, Boston, and Seattle—not for the pace, but for the walkability, social connection, and even climate resilience. Is urban retirement the new dream?Plus, a warning (and opportunity) for families navigating college costs: Students are increasingly turning to social media for scholarships. Farnoosh breaks down how to find legitimate money—from trusted databases to local organizations.Also in this episode: a powerful read. Farnoosh shares her take on Strangers by Belle Burden—a memoir about a marriage unraveling, but more importantly, a cautionary tale about financial dependence. Despite coming into the relationship with wealth, Burden relinquished control of the finances—only to face devastating consequences when the marriage ended. It's a story that raises urgent questions about autonomy, trust, and why every partner needs to stay financially informed and empowered.In the Ask Farnoosh mailbag:Should you invest in gold right now?

With a background in math, technology, and years of experience at Intuit, George has developed innovative frameworks around leverage, velocity of money, and strategic investing that have helped over 10,000 people take control of their financial futures. On this episode we talk about: How George's early exposure to entrepreneurship shaped his mindset around money Why building skills first is critical before pursuing entrepreneurship The difference between an “asset-first” vs. “finance-first” approach to wealth How leverage, spread, reinvestment, and sequencing accelerate wealth building Practical ways to increase income and use it to fuel long-term investments Top 3 Takeaways Wealth isn't built by picking the “right” asset—it's built by increasing the speed (velocity) at which your money grows. Strategic use of leverage can accelerate wealth, but only when assets are stable, cash-flowing, and properly structured. Focus the majority of your time on increasing income and skills—those are the true drivers that fuel long-term investing success. Notable Quotes "Don't fall in love with an asset—fall in love with how you combine them." "The speed at which you build wealth is more important than the asset itself."

Tonight, the second episode of Hacks Season 5 comes out and with it, we are one step closer to the bittersweet end of a delightful show that has been running since pandemic times. In this episode Deborah Vance and the cast headed to New York City and for The Run-Through episode, the real Deborah—Jean Smart—sat down with Chloe in the studio to talk about what it's been like to be Deborah for five seasons and what comes next.“I definitely feel more like her. Or, she feels more like me,” Smart said of her character, “I mean, we look a lot alike.” She also alluded to the sarcastic sense of humor which she and Deborah both possess. As for where they differ, Smart noted that she doesn't grapple with the same anger, bitterness, and distrust that fuels many of Deborah's choices. “That's sort of been her fuel for many, many years and I think she starts to learn to give that up this season,” Smart observed.Smart will miss a lot of aspects of Hacks, not least of which are Deborah's vast and fabulous wardrobe and her tastefully designed home. “I'm a little bit of a pack rat,” Jean confessed in regards to saving clothes from over the years, though she doesn't have nearly the level of organization that exists within Debroah's wardrobe warehouse, which we glimpsed in Season 4. She was hesitant to speak on whether she took any of the clothes from set but she proudly declared that she took the drapes from Deborah's home. “And I would do it again. There! I said it!”Of course, besides the clothes, Smart is certainly going to miss working with Hannah Einbinder who she deeply admires. She also credited her with broadening her understanding of Gen-Z. “I'm definitely more woke after meeting Ms. Einbinder.” Smart isAlso on today's episode Chioma was joined by British Vogue's Radhika Seth to talk about the BV goings on. Today the Charli XCX cover is out, as is Radhika's story with the leads of Apple TV's Margo's Got Money Troubles, Elle Fanning and Michelle Pfeiffer. They also talk about the new season of Euphoria, the news around the upcoming season of White Lotus, and a few Vogue and Teen Vogue staffers give us their dispatches from Coachella weekend.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Here's what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_____What if the hardest part of friendship isn't meeting people, but knowing when a connection is real?For a lot of ADHD adults, friendship still feels confusing, painful, or just out of reach. Not because they don't care, but because the actual steps were never clear. How do you move past an acquaintance? How do you know if someone genuinely likes you? How do you stop rushing in and ending up hurt?Caroline Maguire has spent 21 years answering exactly those questions. She's a coach, educator, and author of Why Will No One Play With Me and the newly released Friendship Skills for Neurodivergent Adults, the first book by a neurodivergent person, for neurodivergent people, on friendship. Diagnosed with ADHD at 12 but told it wouldn't matter because she was a girl, she grew up carrying what so many ADHD women carry: the weight of feeling socially behind without ever knowing why.What changed everything was breaking friendship down into something learnable. Patterns. Stages. Signs. Instead of treating connection like something that should just happen, she teaches how to actually build it. From understanding the impulsive friendship cycle, to recognizing that trust is a track record, not a feeling, to knowing the difference between a participationship and a real friend.If you've ever felt like you missed the memo on friendship, this episode will show you that nothing is wrong with you. You may have just been moving faster than the relationship was ready for.Resources: Website: https://carolinemaguireauthor.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/authorcarolinem Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@authorcarolinem Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@authorcarolinem LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/authorcarolinem Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message If this podcast helps you understand your ADHD brain, Shift helps you train it.

In this master's class episode of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast, I sit down with Lon Welsh for a timely, data-backed conversation on what is really happening in today's housing market and how smart investors should respond. Lon brings over 20 years of commercial real estate acquisition and development experience, and as the founder of Ironton Capital and CEO of Your Castle Real Estate, he has his finger on both the residential and investment side of the market in a serious way.  We unpack consumer confidence, mortgage rates, recession fears, rental demand, student loan delinquencies, buyer psychology, and what those factors mean for both active and passive investors. Lon explains why the media is missing some of the biggest drivers in today's market, why renters may stay renters longer, why rent-to-own operators could be in a position of strength, and why 2025 and 2026 may look a lot more attractive in hindsight than they feel in the moment. If you want a clearer read on market timing, negotiation leverage, and where opportunity is building right now, this is one of those episodes you'll want to listen to twice. Key Talking Points of the Episode 00:00 Introduction 01:55 Real Estate Market Update: Current trends and consumer sentiment 02:40 Why buyers and sellers feel frozen 04:12 Understanding mortgage rates and buyer opportunities 05:15 Should we expect a recession this year? 06:34 Challenges and trends for renters and landlords in today's market 07:09 Student loan delinquencies are a major hidden headwind 08:48 Why older renters want houses, not apartments 11:44 The softest residential markets in the country right now 12:35 Regional market comparison: Midwest/Northeast vs. Southwest/Southeast 14:20 Analyzing historical real estate downturns 16:48 Comparing previous market corrections to the current market 18:24 Home equity stability vs. the 2008 financial crisis 20:43 Passive investing and Lon Welsh's Passive Investing Book 22:21 Long-term outlook and understanding the importance of timing 23:01 Free Smart Real Estate Coach Resources 24:24 The 3 Paydays Live Event Quotables "Consumer confidence is probably actually the bigger thing. And nobody in the media talks about that." "The pool of people who will be stuck renting is going to grow, and the pool of people who are in the first-time buyer set is going to shrink." "There will be a lot of people in 2028 and 29 who are going to look back and say, why didn't I buy more assets in 25 and 26?"

Okay, the opposite of addiction is connection, but what exactly are we connecting to? The big one here is yourself. If you're disconnected within, everything in your outside world will be fractured also. The next big one is when you connect with others. But even after that, probably the biggest connection is the one with nature. There's no coincidence as our war against nature intensifies, so do ailments such as addictions, chronic pain, depression, and anxiety disorders. We are being called home, and it's a beautiful thing. So how do you build this connection with nature or the natural world? I've got good news for you. You are the natural world. So, this separation is false from the first place, and it's a mind-created fiction. So go outside, read a book outside, download the Merlin Bird app, and learn the birds that call your neighborhood home. [08:04] Paul introduces Ron: Ron is 67 and lives in Milwaukee, WI. He is the president of a large restaurant company. He has been married to his wife for 12 years, has two grown children, five grandchildren and two dogs. For fun Ron enjoys travelling, reading, golf and time with family. Ron says he first drank when he was a teenager, but it was very occasional. He says that most of his adult life, he did not have an unhealthy relationship with alcohol until he was around 52 years old. In 2010, Ron was going through a divorce and opened a sports bar. He spent a lot of time there buying and drinking shots while interacting with customers. Ron says going from a non-drinker to a daily drinker happened very quickly. Ron's drinking went unexamined. He was professional, he was doing well and it wasn't impacting his work. He was working out, running marathons, everything on the outside looked functional. Around 2012, Ron realized he was having too many hangovers and tried many forms of moderation for eight years. In 2020, Ron decided to quit and did it for 13 months. Although he was mindful during this time, Ron says he was a dry drunk and didn't have the layers of tools that he would need to maintain sobriety. Alcohol was continuously around and he became tired of being the only person who did not drink. It only took two weeks for Ron to end up right back where he was. Ron and his wife began golfing and drinking a lot during the pandemic. His wife went from being a moderate drinker to being a heavy drinker. In 2024, Ron began to notice she was having a challenging relationship with alcohol too. Ron's wife's drinking habits were different than his, but they began having some issues communicating and connecting. He started talking to her about moderation, but those efforts didn't work for her. She decided to check into a 30-day inpatient program and within three days, Ron says he saw his wife come back spiritually. It was then that Ron knew he had to quit with her. Ron's last drink was the day before his wife got home from rehab. This time he is using more resources and has additional accountability with his wife. He began reading and listening to podcasts and by the time she got home he was ready. Ron and his wife have started going to counseling and are doing the work together and individually. Included in their recovery is attending AA, SMART recovery and Café RE. Ron realizes how important community is on the recovery journey. Ron's parting piece of guidance: lean into people.
