This isn't theory. It's a practical conversation grounded in real experience, real failures, and real solutions.

Time is supposed to heal everything. But for the millions of people navigating divorce after betrayal, that promise falls flat. They're functioning, managing the kids, showing up to work, doing all the things, and still carrying the weight of something that happened years, sometimes decades, ago. Fine, it turns out, is not the same as healed. In this powerful episode, Susan Guthrie welcomes back Dr. Debi Silber, founder of the Post Betrayal Transformation Institute and author of the new book Unstuck:The Practitioner's Guide to Moving Betrayal Clients from Survival to Transformation. Together, they unpack why so many people who have experienced betrayal, whether infidelity, financial deception, or the shattering of expectations that comes with divorce itself, get trapped in a cycle that looks like survival but feels like anything but living. Dr. Debi's research, drawn from over 100,000 people tested, reveals that healing from betrayal is not just possible. It is predictable. This conversation is for anyone who has ever asked, "Why am I still not over this?" Whether you are in the middle of a divorce, just discovering a betrayal, or years out and still feeling its grip, the lessons in this episode apply. It is also essential listening for the legal professionals, coaches, therapists, and mediators who want to understand what is truly going on beneath the surface. What You'll Learn Betrayal in divorce is not just about infidelity. It is a collapse of trust on every level How Post Betrayal Syndrome keeps people physically, mentally, and emotionally stuck long after the relationship has ended The five proven, predictable stages of betrayal recovery and why most people unknowingly park in Stage Three Why self-trust is the real wound of betrayal and how rebuilding it through boundaries, intuition, and small kept promises is where healing actually begins How the Window of Willingness reveals whether the person who betrayed you is genuinely doing the work, and what that means for your path forward Why transformation does not begin until Stage Four and how Dr. Debi's new book Unstuck gives practitioners a roadmap for guiding betrayal clients all the way through, not just to fine About the Guest  Dr. Debi Silber, Founder and CEO of The PBT (Post Betrayal Transformation) Institute and National Forgiveness Day, is an award-winning speaker and 2-time #1 International bestselling author.

Her groundbreaking PhD study revealed 3 discoveries that completely revolutionized our understanding of betrayal-and how to achieve full healing physically, mentally, and emotionally. Creator of the world's #1 betrayal recovery certification for life, business, health, and leadership coaches, Dr. Debi equips practitioners globally with her evidence-based framework so they can deliver exponentially better results with their existing clients. Featured on FOX, CBS, The Dr. Oz Show, and TEDx (twice), she equips practitioners with the missing framework-helping them move from uncertainty to confidence, from using general tools that keep clients stuck to specialized approaches that create genuine transformation.

Michael sits down with Christopher to unpack the power of combining CPA and legal expertise for small business owners. With dual credentials, Christopher explains how founders benefit from a single, trusted advisor who understands tax codes, legislation, acquisitions, and risk, reducing friction and costly missteps. The conversation explores intentional business strategy and why due diligence matters before launching or scaling. Christopher shares the origin of his book 168 Hours, created to bridge the gap between theory and execution, and calls out common mistakes like prioritizing advertising before solid financial planning. Michael reinforces the importance of timing, surrounding yourself with experienced advisors early, and using professionals proactively, not reactively. They also discuss proactive planning at key inflection points such as cash flow strain, rapid growth, and exit preparation. The episode closes with insights on doing things right the first time, recognizing trends early, and building infrastructure that supports long-term value creation. Christopher also shares details about his podcast Blabo and where to find his work.

You've paid off the debt, built the emergency fund, and started investing. So why does having extra money still make you feel weirdly stressed? In this episode of Everyone's Talkin' Money, Shari Rash breaks down what to do with surplus money once you're past financial chaos and into a more stable phase of life. Because when the bills are covered, your savings account is solid, and your 401(k) contributions are happening, the next question gets a lot more complicated: where should your next dollar go? Get the Now What? Money Reset If you've ever felt stuck deciding between saving more cash, funding a Roth IRA, opening a brokerage account, contributing more to your 401(k), or finally spending money on something that makes your life better, this episode is for you. Shari shares her post-chaos money playbook: Protect, Build, Live — a practical system for deciding how to allocate extra money without second-guessing every financial move. You'll learn how to set a cap on your emergency fund, when cash stops being security and starts becoming unassigned money, and why “max everything” is not always the smartest investing strategy. Shari walks through her investing stack for women in this stage of life: get the employer match, fund a Roth IRA, build a taxable brokerage account for flexibility, and then max your 401(k) if it still makes sense for your goals. This episode also unpacks why a brokerage account can be one of the most powerful tools for present-life freedom, especially if you want the option to take a sabbatical, leave a job, change careers, start a business, relocate, or work less before traditional retirement age. And just as importantly, Shari explains why your life should not be funded with leftovers. You'll hear how to create a “Live” bucket for travel, health, support, time-saving services, relationships, learning, and the things that make your life feel like yours. If you've been wondering how to split your money between savings, investing, and actually enjoying your life, this episode gives you a clear framework. Because you are no longer someone who saves whatever is left. You are someone who directs money to build security, freedom, and life all at the same time. Are you're ready for personalized, judgment-free financial guidance? Learn more about working with Shari.

On this episode we talk about:   Affirm + Isuzu pilot: Split rent biweekly (no interest/fees) via $10-50/month memberships that report payments to credit bureaus—helps cash flow, not affordability.   Eric's confession: Used fee-free biweekly rent; Travis okays it as the one BNPL he's fine with (unlike shoes/phones).   Rent sticker shock: Eric's old $600 1BR now ~$1,658; Travis's 2018 Vegas 3BR/4BA went from $2,600 to $4,800+ Zestimate.   Bilt love: Pay rent/mortgage with credit card for points (shoutout founder); gamified quizzes make bills fun.   Lifestyle creep: Cheap rents build wealth nostalgia, but "never going back"—location > size if you can walk to casinos/pizza. Top 3 Takeaways 1.  Biweekly rent splits (zero interest) ease cash flow without extra cost—ideal if paid biweekly, risky if monthly salary mismatches.2.  Rents double every ~7 years while fixed mortgages don't—owning locks predictability as utilities/rates rise.3.  Use tech like Bilt for rent points/credit; systems easing big bills (rent = largest expense) free mental space for income growth. Notable Quotes   "This doesn't feel like buy now, pay later... It's just splitting it up into two payments. That feels almost like a better situation for the landlord."   "If this system makes more sense for you to conserve the money... then sure, split it up."   "Set up systems that make it easier to accomplish your goals, rather than trying in the difficulty of the systems you already have." ✖️✖️✖️✖️

In this powerful conversation, Dr. mOe Anderson sits down with relationship and life coach Joni Woods to unpack the emotional rollercoaster of modern relationships — from the thrill of new love to the hard truths of divorce recovery and personal reinvention. Joni shares hard-earned wisdom on spotting early relationship red flags, breaking unhealthy dating cycles, and setting boundaries that protect emotional well-being. They explore why self-abandonment keeps many women stuck in painful partnerships, how divorce can become a catalyst for profound personal growth, and why “two happy homes” often serve children better than one conflict-filled household. Joni also reveals how creating emotional “anchors” can stabilize life during upheaval and how transforming pain into purpose allows people to rebuild stronger, wiser, and more authentic lives. This episode is a candid, compassionate guide for anyone navigating heartbreak, healing after divorce, dating with intention, or seeking healthier, more fulfilling relationships. Sound Bites • “There is no badge for suffering.” • “Rebound love can trap you.” • “You are not alone in your trauma.” Key Takeaways Early relationship excitement can cloud judgment and hide serious red flags. Rebound relationships often repeat unhealthy emotional patterns. How a partner treats others reveals more than how they treat you. Healthy boundaries are essential for emotional safety and self-respect. Divorce can become a turning point for growth, clarity, and rediscovering identity.

Send a textThe first climb always humbles you—and sometimes it shows you who you can become. We sit down with Denise Smith and Jana McCarron to unpack how two friends stretched from casual runs to gritty trail miles, including a six-hour loop event with 1,600 feet of gain per lap that rewired their sense of “hard.” Denise shares how a post-college fitness push grew into 10Ks, triathlons, and now a half marathon goal, while Jana talks about returning to running later in life, embracing the Galloway run-walk method, and discovering that endurance favors patience over pace.You'll hear the practical details that actually move the needle: how to fuel without wrecking your stomach, when to switch from gels to real food, and why electrolytes matter more than you think on warm days and hilly courses. We get specific about trail strategy too—time on feet, recalibrating expectations on steep terrain, carrying your own water when aid runs out, and small gear wins like waterproofing shoes and packing extra socks for creek crossings. Denise breaks down sprint vs Olympic triathlon distances in plain terms, and explains why training seasons shift with real life. Jana offers a grounded view on zone two training and how mostly walking through a training block still led to a half marathon PR.Threaded through the stories is a mindset that keeps runners healthy and engaged: don't compare, stay consistent, and let community carry you through the tough miles. From wrong start lines and knee-deep creek surprises to the quiet joy of finishing loop two because it beats freezing at the aid tent, this conversation is a field guide to sustainable endurance. If you're eyeing your first half marathon, curious about trail running, or searching for fueling strategies that actually work, you'll leave with practical tips and a steadier outlook on progress.Subscribe, rate, and share to support the show, and tell us your toughest mile or funniest race mishap—we might feature it next time. coaching highlights You can reach out to us at:https://coffeycrewcoaching.comemail: Carla@coffeycrewcoaching.com FB @ Over the Next Hill Fitness GroupIG @coffeycrewcoaching.comand Buy Me a Coffeehttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/Carlauhttps://hydra-patch.com/discount/OTNH20 https://hydra-patch.com/discount/OTNHBOGO?redirect=%2Fproducts%2Fhydrapatch%C2%AE https://rnwy.life code: OTNH15 https://jambar.com code: CARLA20

In this episode of Reboot IT, host Dave Coriale, President of DelCor, sits down with Andrew Leggett, Director of Cybersecurity at DelCor, and Chris Ecker, Chief Technology Officer at DelCor, to unpack two critical cybersecurity topics every association and nonprofit should be thinking about right now: phishing‑resistant MFA and preparing your Microsoft 365 environment for Copilot. They discuss why passkeys truly improve the user experience, how oversharing in Microsoft 365 creates risk, and what steps organizations must take before deploying AI tools. This conversation is packed with practical guidance leaders can act on immediately.Themes and Topics:Why It's Time to Level Up Your MFATraditional MFA isn't enough anymore with modern phishing attacks. FIDO2 passkeys make logging in easier for your staff, not harder.Passkeys Are Way Simpler Than Passwords (Really!)A short PIN or FaceID is more secure than a long, complex password.Your device's TPM chip keeps those credentials locked down safely.How Modern Phishing Tricks Users, and What Stops ItAttackers now steal MFA approvals and ride along on active sessions. Phishing-resistant MFA shuts the door on those token-harvesting scams.Before You Turn on Copilot, Fix How Your Association Shares FilesYears of sharing files without guidelines or guardrails can create hidden risks.Copilot can surface any file users have access to, even old oversharing.Why 365 Sharing Settings Matter More Than EverUsers must run their own OneDrive reports (admins can't see it all).SharePoint tools help find where HR, finance, or executive docs may be exposed.Leadership Buy‑In Makes or Breaks These UpgradesChange management matters, especially if the C‑suite wants exceptions. Passkeys also offer a chance to simplify tools and retire extras like Duo.

One placement can be a transaction. Or it can be the start of a long-term enterprise relationship. Most recruiters treat it like the first. Brendan Thomas built his career on the second. He started recruiting at 36, got fired after his first $60,000 placement, and joined a new agency six months later with two clients. By the end of that year, he had built over $600,000 in billings. Six years on, he has generated more than $5 million in lifetime billings, averaged $1 million per year, and qualified for CEO Club every quarter. He did it by ignoring the advice nearly every experienced recruiter gave him. When he asked million-dollar billers how they did it, the one piece of advice he kept hearing was to avoid enterprise accounts. He ignored it. In this episode, Brendan breaks down exactly how he cracks major enterprise accounts, navigates HR and Talent Acquisition without getting blocked, and earns the kind of deep access - hiring manager calendars, ATS logins, long-term contracts - that turns one deal into recurring revenue. This episode is brought to you by Recruiterflow Recruiterflow is the AI-first operating system built specifically for recruitment agencies and executive search firms.

He joined Jobot in June 2020 and has since generated over $5 million in lifetime billings, averaging approximately $1 million per year.
