https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/ins.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM729_FINAL.mp3 Your financial set point is running in the background right now — quietly deciding how much you earn, how you price, and whether you follow through when real money is on the table. Most business owners never see it. And that invisibility is exactly what makes it so powerful. I recorded this episode with my longtime colleague Steph Tuss — who has spent the better part of 35 combined years working with small business owners alongside me — because this is the conversation I wish someone had sat me down for early in my career. Between the two of us, we’ve watched the same pattern play out thousands of times. You set a financial goal. You get excited. You work hard. And then, without knowing how it happened, you’re right back where you started. That’s not a discipline problem. That’s a set point doing exactly what it was designed to do. Financial Set Point: What It Is and How It Controls YouThe simplest way I know to explain a financial set point is the thermostat in your house. You set it to 70 degrees. The temperature drifts up. The system detects the gap, kicks on, and brings it right back to 70. Your subconscious mind works the same way — except the temperature it’s managing is your income. When you push above your set point, something in your thinking, your emotions, or your behavior begins to adjust you back. It shows up as undercharging in a sales conversation. As scope creep where you give away more than you’re paid for. As panic during a slow month that drives you into decisions you wouldn’t otherwise make. The three places I see this most clearly are pricing decisions, boundary violations with clients, and the response to slow periods. In each case, the set point isn’t the problem you’re aware of — it’s the thing making the problem feel inevitable. Financial Set Point: The 4 Types and How to Identify YoursAfter decades of this work, Steph and I have identified four distinct financial set point types that show up in business owners: the scarcity set point, the survival set point, the striving set point, and the emerging success set point. Most people are operating from one of these — or a combination — without knowing which one it is. And because you can’t change what you can’t see, awareness is always the first step. The striving set point is the one I lived in for a long time. Work harder, stay on the phone longer, push more. And it hits the same ceiling every time, because more effort isn’t the solution when the program running underneath doesn’t match the goal you’re reaching for. How to Find Out Which Set Point Is Limiting YouThis episode is Part 1 of a 5-part Financial Setpoint Series. The next four episodes go deep into each set point type — what it looks like, how it shows up in your business, and what to do about it. But before you listen to those, I want you to know which one is yours. Steph and I built a free diagnostic tool called the Psychological Set Point Analyzer. It takes about five minutes, asks 7 to 10 questions, and tells you exactly which financial set point is operating in your life right now — along with a seven-day plan to begin reprogramming it. This isn’t awareness for awareness’s sake. You need new behaviors to make real change, and the tool gives you a starting point. Get the free diagnostic at lifeisnowinc.com/setpoint and plan to join us for the next four episodes. Two per week, so you won’t be waiting long. Episode 372 – I Choose How I Feel Episode 609 – Desire Points the Way, But Commitment Gets it Done Episode 624 – The Starting Point is Desire YOU'VE LEARNED THE STRATEGIES…SO WHY DOES YOUR REVENUE STILL CONTINUE TO PLATEAU?Here’s what I know about most business owners: They’re working hard, doing the right things, and still hitting the same income ceiling year after year. That ceiling has a name — it’s your Financial Set Point. It’s the unconscious limit you’ve placed on what you believe you can earn, and until you see it clearly, it runs the show no matter what strategies you put in place.That’s what we work on at my upcoming Business Intensive in August. Over two days, I'll help you identify your financial set point, understand why it’s there, and break through it so you can finally earn what you want without the constant struggle and hustle that’s been getting you nowhere.If that sounds like exactly what’s been missing, you don’t want to sit this one out.

Aisha Francis has built a career as a performer, choreographer, teacher, and one of the dance industry's most respected heels educators. In this conversation, she shares the unexpected story of how she ended up helping Beyoncé learn to dance in heels, along with the lessons she's learned from decades of working in the industry. We discuss confidence as a trainable skill, the physical and psychological foundations of performance, what dancers often misunderstand about building a career, and why training with intention matters. Aisha also opens up about burnout, losing her love for dance, finding it again through teaching, and the realities of navigating a constantly changing industry. From unforgettable stories on stage to practical insights on artistry, professionalism, and longevity, this episode offers a candid look at what it takes to grow not only as a dancer, but as a performer and person.

As the 2026 FIFA World Cup continues across the United States, Canada and Mexico, we look at the rise of hate-watching across parts of the continent. The trend was especially visible when Mexico faced South Africa at the opening game last week. Some African fans, especially on social media, openly backed Mexico against Bafana Bafana citing the recent xenophobic attacks and anti-immigration sentiments in South Africa. We explain what hate-watching is and how off-pitch tensions shape fan loyalties.And a new study is aiming to provide medical insights into treating kidney disease in West Africa.

She also shares her passion for disability advocacy, creating awareness, and helping others better understand what it means to live with a disability.Throughout the conversation, Gillian opens up about overcoming self-doubt, finding confidence in her own voice, and why she refuses to let a diagnosis define who she is or what she can accomplish.Topics Covered:• Growing up with cerebral palsy and epilepsy• Being born premature and overcoming long odds• Physical therapy and adapting to daily challenges• Disability advocacy and awareness• Writing as a form of self-expression• Living with seizures and mobility limitations• Social media and finding community• Public speaking and storytelling• The importance of self-acceptance• Why disability does not define a personGuest Links:Gillian Jasper Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/gillianjasper_Cerebral Palsy Through My Lens:https://www.jewishnewhaven.org/press-releases/cerebral-palsy-through-my-lens-the-hand-i-have-been-dealtHost Links:Chad Williams:https://www.instagram.com/chadwillia1Daryl Perry:https://www.instagram.com/daryltperryThank you for listening to The Cerebral Palsy Perspective Podcast.

Dr Russell Thackeray discusses the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the USA, Mexico, and Canada and argues it will be a continent-sized resilience test rather than a tactics story, highlighting four pressure points: rapid shifts between microclimates (from Seattle/Vancouver to high-altitude Mexico City to Texas heat), heavy travel and an expanded 48-team, 104-match format that disrupts sleep and circadian rhythms, relentless digital scrutiny that rewards “digital abstinence,” and crushing national expectations on host nations and teams like the hosts and England. He then spotlights veteran “survivors” potentially chasing fifth or sixth tournaments—Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Luka Modric, Andres Guardado, and others—framing their longevity as disciplined recovery, radical adaptation of playing style, and a powerful “why,” concluding the tournament will be chaotic and may favour theresilient old guard as much as young legs.00:00 Welcome and premise00:39 Climate endurance test01:22 Travel and match load01:57 Social media pressure02:47 National expectations03:34 Veterans and five timers03:59 Oldest players list06:03 What longevity takes06:48 Final resilience takeawayYou can contact us at info@qedod.comResources can be found online or link to our website https://resilienceunravelled.com

“Send Coach John a message”Found a very spot-on post here for all of us to connect with. It comes from Inspiration & More (@LifeWithJohn) where this is the gold nugget he shared: “The world is changed by your example not by your opinion. - Paul Coelho ~ Talking the talk isn't enough………Walk the Walk!” Way too many of us simply do too much talking (yes.. That is me you see standing up holding my hand up… guilty for sure on this one), instead of putting more action out there into the world. Social media is dominated I think with so many “keyboard warriors” who spew thoughts and opinions and then they are actually “walking a totally different walk.” The hidden agenda by so many people is for so many other reasons than simply to try and live a good life and help others. I know for one I need to keep walking my correct walk a bit more. I'm not going to put too many of my opinions out there telling others how to do their walk… other than encouraging them to actually “walk their walk.” Thanks for listening.

In this solo episode, I'm diving into one of the most pervasive and underappreciated cognitive patterns I see across ROGD families: black-and-white thinking. It's the tendency to categorize everything in terms of two mutually exclusive extremes — all or nothing, perfect or ruined, success or failure — with no middle ground.I explain how this pattern is a normal feature of adolescent brain development, but becomes significantly amplified in kids with ADHD, autism, OCD, or anxiety — conditions that are highly comorbid with gender identity distress. I walk through real-world examples of how this thinking shows up in everyday family life, from refusing to go on a trip because homework isn't finished, to concluding that body discomfort during puberty means something is fundamentally wrong and must be medically corrected.I also explore how excessive screen use creates a vicious feedback cycle that stunts emotional intelligence and body awareness, leaving teenagers even more stuck in binary thinking. From there, I offer practical tools for parents: thinking out loud to model nuanced reasoning, scaffolding executive functioning through backward planning, and using "parts language" to help teens recognize and hold contradictory feelings simultaneously. I close by connecting all of it back to the gender question — because the same cognitive skill that helps a teen tolerate ambiguity in one area is the skill that can eventually let them hold space for uncertainty about their own identity.This solo episode doubles as a bonus lesson in ROGD Repair.

Spencer West returns to ListenABLE for an honest and powerful conversation about disability, accessibility and what it really means to be seen.Four years after his first appearance on the podcast, Spencer joins Angus O'Loughlin in person to talk about Melbourne's accessibility, able-bodied assumptions, language around disability, social media advocacy and the moments from his life that people often romanticise from the outside.Spencer opens up about growing up without legs, rejecting prosthetics, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, feeling excluded from inaccessible queer spaces and learning that he does not always have to share his story just because someone asks.Guest Links: Spencer Westhttps://linktr.ee/spencer2thewesthttps://www.spencer2thewest.com/https://www.instagram.com/spencer2thewest/https://www.tiktok.com/@spencer2thewesthttps://www.youtube.com/user/Spencer2TheWest00:00 Spencer West returns to ListenABLE02:04 Melbourne accessibility and public transport03:28 When accessibility is gatekept04:42 Should people get praise for accessible spaces?05:52 Spencer explains his disability07:43 The assumption about disability people need to drop09:04 Disability language and using the word disabled11:32 Learning to advocate for his own body13:49 The truth about climbing Kilimanjaro16:21 Social media, responsibility and disability advocacy17:17 Feeling more visible than misunderstood17:47 Using humour to educate

The “sandwich generation” is made up of people balancing the demands of raising children while caring for aging loved ones. This hour, we learn about the emotional, professional and financial realities facing this population of caregivers. Journalist Kelli María Korducki discusses her reporting on caregiving and career sacrifice, while University of Connecticut professor Laura Mauldin offers insight into the gender dynamics of care. And later, we hear from a Connecticut resident and member of the "sandwich generation.” We learn what it's like to navigate these responsibilities in everyday life and what policies could provide some relief. Guests: Kelli María Korducki: independent, New York City-based journalist and author Laura Mauldin: associate professor in the Department of Social and Critical Inquiry at the University of Connecticut and author of "In Sickness and Health: Love Stories from the Front Line of America’s Caregiving Crisis."

Join us in this episode as world-renowned British anthropologist and evolutionary psychologist Robin Dunbar sits down to discuss the evolutionary, cognitive, and neurobiological foundations of human relationships. Best known for developing Dunbar's Number, Professor Dunbar has spent decades studying how the human brain shapes the size and structure of our social networks, offering groundbreaking insights into friendship, community, and social behavior. Professor Dunbar is Emeritus Professor of Evolutionary Psychology at the University of Oxford and a member of the Social and Evolutionary Neuroscience Research Group. His research explores the mechanisms behind social bonding in both humans and primates, helping explain why we form relationships the way we do and how social connections influence well-being, cooperation, and group success… This discussion covers: The origins and meaning of Dunbar's Number Why humans can only maintain a limited number of meaningful relationships What happens when human group size increases The evolutionary role of friendship and community Why are human relationships structured the way they are – and what does science reveal about building stronger communities? Listen in as Professor Dunbar shares decades of research on the social brain and the hidden architecture of human connection!

Interview Date: June 7th, 2026Episode Summary:This episode dives into Sienna Morris's journey from a dedicated young dancer to a working professional in Los Angeles, highlighting the mindset, preparation, and initiative required to succeed in today's dance industry. From choosing dance over gymnastics at an early age to navigating a short-lived opportunity in Monaco, Sienna demonstrates the importance of trusting your instincts and making bold decisions that align with your long-term goals. Her transition into the LA scene, including joining Ballet Red, marked a pivotal shift into the professional world and set the foundation for her evolving career.Throughout the conversation, Sienna emphasizes the power of self-advocacy, networking, and consistency. She shares how introducing herself in rooms, building genuine relationships, and staying visible have directly led to opportunities. A standout mindset she lives by is her “24-hour rule” for handling rejection—allowing herself time to process before moving forward with clarity and focus. She also speaks on the importance of versatility, expanding into acting and performance, and developing multiple skill sets to remain competitive in a fast-paced industry.The episode also explores preparation and personal branding. Sienna discusses how having strong materials—reels, a professional website, and a clear online presence—helped her enter the LA market with confidence. She reflects on mentorship through Business of Dance, landing brand deals, and learning to confidently negotiate her worth. Ultimately, her story reinforces that success in dance goes beyond talent—it requires ownership, resilience, and strong relationships. Her message is clear: the dancers who take initiative and build connections are the ones who create lasting careers.Shownotes:0:01 – Introduction and Sienna Morris full-circle journey2:57 – Mentorship experience and early career reflections 4:05 – Early training and choosing dance path 6:37 – Monaco opportunity and trusting your instincts 9:42 – Moving to LA and Ballet Red experience 10:22 – Networking, visibility, and self-advocacy 14:12 – Handling rejection with “24-hour rule” 17:45 – Building versatility across dance and acting 18:48 – College path versus going professional early 23:00 – Preparing materials before entering LA market26:44 – Business of Dance impact on branding 30:00 – First brand deal and negotiating value32:20 – Social media strategy and consistency 41:34 – Agents vs self-submissions and ownership49:55 – Relationships matter: contacts equal contractsBiography:Sienna Morris is an LA-based dancer, actor, model, choreographer, and educator whose work blends contemporary ballet with the versatility of today's entertainment industry.

“Send us a Hey Now!” The 2026 Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix wasn't a race that grabbed you from lap one, but Formula 1 has a habit of rewarding patience. What looked like a slow-burning afternoon in Spain eventually produced plenty for fans to talk about, and this week we break down everything that unfolded in our full F1 Race Review.We discuss the key moments from the Barcelona GP, the biggest winners and losers, championship implications, team performances, and the dramatic late developments that completely changed the conversation after the chequered flag. As always, we share our thoughts from a fan perspective and debate whether the race deserves more credit than it might first appear.We also dive into the latest F1 news, social media reactions, and another edition of Brian's Video Vault. This week's selections lean more into the personalities and fandoms of Formula 1 than outright memes, featuring Carlos Sainz, Alex Albon, Yuki Tsunoda, Cadillac's behind-the-scenes content, and more.This week's episode includes:
Chris Markowski, known as the Watchdog of Wall Street, discusses the harsh realities of the financial world, particularly focusing on the Social Security system, the failures of Obamacare, and the importance of true wealth beyond material possessions.

ReSanté-vous est une entreprise solidaire d'utilité sociale créée il y a 19 ans par Guy Le Charpentier et Nicolas Roumagne, alors étudiants en master ingénierie de la rééducation.L'activité a démarré en 2007 avec une première équipe mobile de prévention spécialisée dans les interventions non médicamenteuses (INM) auprès de personnes âgées en unités protégées Alzheimer. L'équipe est pluridisciplinaire et comprend des psychomotriciens, ergothérapeutes, psychologues et art-thérapeutes.L'entreprise emploie aujourd'hui 50 salariés répartis sur 8 équipes mobiles de prévention départementale en région Nouvelle-Aquitaine.Ensemble, nous revenons sur l'évolution des EHPAD au cours des deux dernières décennies : l'arrivée des interventions non médicamenteuses, le développement des unités spécialisées Alzheimer, la transformation numérique des établissements, mais aussi les difficultés croissantes de recrutement et l'augmentation de la dépendance des résidents.Guy nous explique l'origine du projet : Les Éclaireurs du Tour, une initiative née presque par hasard lors d'une séance avec une résidente de 100 ans devant le Tour de France.Ce qui était au départ une simple activité physique est devenu un véritable mouvement national réunissant aujourd'hui des centaines d'établissements autour d'un objectif commun : lutter contre l'isolement des personnes âgées grâce au vélo, au lien social et à l'engagement citoyen.Nous parlons également du projet ActiDuo, qui transforme les aides à domicile en véritables acteurs de prévention grâce à des séances d'activité physique réalisées en duo avec les bénéficiaires. Une démarche dont les résultats montrent un impact important non seulement sur la santé, mais aussi sur la qualité de la relation entre les professionnels et les personnes accompagnées.L'épisode aborde aussi le nouveau projet Tous au Stade, développé avec le monde du rugby, qui vise à reconnecter les personnes âgées à la vie sociale de leur territoire en facilitant leur participation à des événements sportifs locaux.La conviction : plutôt que de se concentrer uniquement sur les fragilités liées au vieillissement, nous devons apprendre à regarder les capacités, les envies et les ressources des personnes âgées.L'innovation dans le médico-social ne repose pas toujours sur la technologie. Elle peut aussi naître d'une idée simple, d'un vélo, d'un club sportif ou d'une rencontre, dès lors qu'elle permet de recréer du lien et de redonner une place aux aînés dans la société.Vous pouvez contacter Guy via LinkedinVous retrouverez toutes les infos pour candidater aux projets sur le site : https://www.resantevous.fr/Hébergé par Ausha.

You ever look down at your phone and feel that weird mix of guilt and restlessness? Like you just spent 20 minutes scrolling and you're not even sure what you saw? Yeah. Me too. And I think it's time we talk about it honestly. In this solo episode, I'm getting real about something that's been quietly stealing our joy, our focus, and our most important relationships. Your phone. More specifically, the way the attention economy has been designed to keep you hooked, anxious, and endlessly distracted. This isn't a tech bashing session. It's a wake-up call, and I'm including myself in it. Here's the truth. We are the most technologically connected generation in human history, and yet anxiety, depression, and loneliness are at an all-time high. That's not a coincidence. Most Americans spend five to seven hours a day on their phones, and the majority of that time is tied to social media, which research links directly to anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and more. But here's the flip side. When you do a social media detox and get intentional about your device usage, anxiety drops by roughly 16% and depression by around 25%. That alone should make you want to put the phone down. The first big takeaway is that your attention is the product. Social media platforms don't make money because they care about you. They make money because your eyeballs on a screen are worth something to advertisers. Every notification, every like, every autoplay video is engineered to keep you in the scroll. And the longer you stay, the more your focus fractures and your creativity suffers. Attention is the new oil, and right now, a lot of us are giving it away for free. The second thing I want you to sit with is the comparison trap. The compare and despair culture that lives online is wrecking people's self-worth quietly and consistently. When you're constantly measuring your real life against someone else's highlight reel, you lose. Every time. Cutting the doom scroll isn't just a productivity hack. It's an act of protecting your mental health and your sense of self. Third, presence is becoming rare, and that matters more than most people realize. My kids are competing for my attention, and sometimes my screens win. That's a hard thing to admit, but it's true. Your child doesn't care about your follower count. They care if you're on the carpet playing Legos with them. They care if you're there for the first bike ride, the fishing trip, the quiet Tuesday afternoon. Success means nothing if you're mentally absent from the moments that actually count. Fourth, boredom is underrated. I'm teaching my son how to be bored, and I think that's one of the most important things I can do for him. We've become so conditioned to reach for our phones the second we feel any discomfort or stillness. But sitting in that quiet, what I call chilling in the still, is where creativity, clarity, and peace actually live. We gave people unlimited distraction and then wondered why mental health collapsed. Fifth, there are practical steps you can start today. No phone for the first and last 30 minutes of your day. Those are sacred. Delete three of your most addictive apps for 30 days. Turn off every notification that's robbing your focus. Do one dopamine detox weekly, a full day with no YouTube, no Netflix, no social media, nothing. And if you can swing it, try a full Sunday Sabbath, phone away, screens closed, replaced with prayer, exercise, nature, reading, and real conversation. That's where the juice is. Your life isn't stolen all at once. It's stolen in tiny distracted moments. And I think a lot of us are ready to start taking it back.

Send us Fan MailThis week the boys open with a "loving" influencer explaining why we're all going to hell — and it only gets holier from there. Social media Christians who gay-bait on Snapchat, megachurch pastors who need a second jet, and why nobody is getting into Heaven Plus.Then Bobby reports live from Charlotte: a city full of 23-year-olds, an open bar (RIP), and a gay bar near the airport that sparked the most honest conversation about race we've ever had on this show. Plus a gas station encounter that proves travel actually changes you.And the main event: a full dramatic reading from the Book of Faggot — a Grindr message from a hookup 13 years ago with a suspiciously perfect memory, a top-three ranking (out of three), and the coldest "Got it." in recorded history.Also inside: the president is a farter, Pillion is unrealistic (Alexander Skarsgård is a 95, sorry), doctor's office anxiety is just hookup anxiety, why the gays bully the gays, and the moment we realized the days are already getting shorter.

Peter digs into Trivolve Tech's forensic management system after it passed 100,000 on-chain transactions on Cardano mainnet. The episode looks at what the milestone actually represents, how the evidence workflow appears to use hashing and zero-knowledge proofs, and why it stands out as a live government-style deployment rather than another proof of concept.Peter also connects the project to Trivolve Tech's broader work in India, including IndianChain and land-record infrastructure tied to millions of farmers and millions of acres. The result is a grounded look at how Cardano is being used for chain-of-custody records, tamper detection, and large-scale public-sector data integrity.Key Takeaways:- Trivolve Tech's forensic management system has surpassed 100,000 on-chain transactions on Cardano mainnet.- The use case focuses on preserving chain-of-custody integrity for police forensic evidence in India.- The workflow described in Catalyst materials combines SHA-256 hashing with zero-knowledge proofs to detect tampering without exposing sensitive evidence data.- Peter links the project to earlier Cardano Foundation work with Dubai Police, suggesting a broader pattern for blockchain-based forensic records.- Trivolve Tech's IndianChain proposal extends the story beyond forensics into government land and agriculture settlement records.- The episode frames this as practical enterprise adoption on Cardano, not a speculative or purely experimental demo.Links & References:- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/4eWNUc- https://link.learncardano.io/Fkgrh4- Securing Forensic Chain of Custody for Indian State Govt (1million+ cases per year) Using Cardano and Zero-Knowledge Proofs: https://link.learncardano.io/GM6wgh- IndianChain: Indian Government's 10M+ Settlements on Cardano: https://link.learncardano.io/gEWuXU- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/OpHZnR- Dubai Police will use blockchain to conduct investigations: https://link.learncardano.io/iKza9NWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Episode 750 arrives with a simple reminder: the bullshit never sleeps. This week Jason and Brian dive headfirst into a game of Douchebag Ping Pong featuring OpenAI, Anthropic, Elon Musk, and the rest of the AI industrial complex. OpenAI is preparing to go public while simultaneously transforming ChatGPT into an everything app, Anthropic wants the world to slow down AI development before Skynet shows up for work, and then immediately releases a more powerful model because apparently self-awareness only goes so far. Meanwhile, Sam Altman's eyeball-scanning side hustle is laying people off, proving that convincing humans to hand over their biometric data remains a surprisingly difficult sales pitch.The AI arms race gets even weirder as SpaceX unveils plans for orbital data centers the size of flying football fields while Google and Anthropic shovel billions into Elon's compute empire just to keep their models fed. On Earth, Seattle is trying to ban new AI data centers before they drink the city dry, Meta is planting AI infrastructure in India, Google is slashing Gemini prices, and a Mississippi judge discovers that lawyers on both sides of a case used AI to invent legal citations, resulting in the rare spectacle of artificial stupidity arguing against itself. Thankfully, AI also manages to do something useful, helping researchers develop a promising universal vaccine and reminding us that not every machine-learning story ends with humanity getting harvested for electricity.Elsewhere, crypto continues its transformation into performance art as Sam Bankman-Fried seeks a presidential pardon while reports suggest the Trump family made billions from crypto projects that left investors holding the bag. Meta gets caught quietly experimenting with face recognition in smart glasses, lawmakers scramble to require recording indicators, and Snapchat tightens protections for younger users. The guys also celebrate Apple's shockingly competent Sports app, a rare piece of software that simply does the thing it's supposed to do without trying to become your therapist, financial advisor, or AI life coach. Plus: Ghostbusters returns, Devil May Cry gets another season, Bill Burr takes on Facebook in The Social Reckoning, and a look at why Silicon Valley's newest luxury service appears to be paying actual humans for conversation.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

What does it mean to stay fully human in the age of AI? Host Curtis Chang sits down with Pulitzer Prize finalist and acclaimed technology critic Nicholas Carr to explore how AI, social media, and digital life are reshaping human attention, identity, education, and spiritual formation. Carr warns that technologies promising efficiency often erode the embodied presence, deep thinking, struggle, and meaningful friction that make us fully human.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and three-time NAACP Image Award-winning television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Laura Foos. Interview Overview Guest: Laura FoosHost: Rushion McDonaldShow: Money Making Conversations MasterclassLocation: Camp Springs, Maryland (DMV area)Focus: Entrepreneurship, tax education, real estate ownership, multiple income streams, women in business, and asset‑based thinking Laura Foos is a serial entrepreneur, accountant, tax professional, property owner, and business educator. In this conversation, she walks through how she built several aligned businesses—from a salon to a tax firm, educational products, and a multi‑use commercial space—while raising her daughter as a single mother and intentionally building wealth through ownership. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of the interview is to: Educate everyday entrepreneurs—especially women and small business owners—on how to use taxes, ownership, and strategy to build sustainable wealth Demystify entrepreneurship by showing how multiple income streams can grow from practical decisions, not hype Highlight asset‑based thinking, where liabilities are intentionally offset by income‑producing assets Inspire single mothers and women entrepreneurs to pursue ownership, funding, and scalability without waiting for permission Rushion positions Laura as a living example of “walking the walk”—not just talking about business success, but executing it with discipline, planning, and faith. Key Themes & Takeaways 1. Location, Ownership, and Convenience Matter Laura intentionally built her life and businesses close together—owning her home of 20 years and purchasing a nearby commercial property—to maximize efficiency and control.Takeaway: Strategic location and ownership reduce friction and increase long‑term stability. 2. Taxes Are a Growth Tool—Not Just Compliance As a college‑educated accountant and longtime tax professional, Laura explains that many small business owners are taught to eliminate taxable income entirely, but this limits growth. She emphasizes the importance of: Showing income on paper Planning annually for tax obligations Using taxes strategically to qualify for loans and asset purchases Takeaway: You cannot scale—or secure funding—without showing money on paper. 3. Every Liability Should Have an Asset Attached Laura repeatedly returns to a core principle: “For every liability that I have, I want to figure out an asset that is going to pay for that. Examples include: Rental units inside her home paying the mortgage Booth rentals covering salon rent Event space, studios, and meeting rooms generating income to cover the commercial property Takeaway: Bills are optional when assets are designed correctly. 4. Multiple Streams Came from One Smart Decision What began as a tax office expanded into: A podcast studio Photography studio Meeting rooms Event space Takeaway: One owned asset can support several revenue streams if you design for flexibility. 5. Mentorship and Representation Matter Laura consciously mentors other women through: Her Confessions of a Boss Lady Facebook group (400+ women) Social media education Direct example She emphasizes that visibility—“I’m living this”—is key to inspiring others. 6. Teaching Financial Literacy Starts at Home Laura involved her daughter in entrepreneurship early, helping her launch a bracelet business to fund private school tuition. She taught her: Customer interaction Inventory management Profit allocation Reinvestment Takeaway: Wealth habits are taught, not inherited. 7. Smart Delegation Enables Growth After experiencing burnout and a health scare during the pandemic, Laura learned she could not do everything herself. She expanded her team and invested in automation. Takeaway: Growth requires letting go—not grinding harder.. 8. Faith Replaces Fear When asked why she isn’t afraid to take big risks, Laura attributes her confidence to faith. “I have fearless faith… If He put it in front of me, that’s what I’m supposed to try.” Takeaway: Purpose reduces fear and reframes failure as learning. Standout Quotes On asset‑based thinking: “For every liability that I have, I want an asset that’s going to pay for that.”. On taxes and growth: “To grow and expand and purchase things in the business name, we have to start showing something on paper.”. On entrepreneurship as a single mother: “One income is not enough.” On delegation and health: “I realized I don’t have to be in it 24 hours a day.”. On fearlessness: “If it doesn’t work, I’ll reorganize, learn the lesson, and move on. Overall Impact Laura Foos is presented as a grounded, disciplined, and strategic entrepreneur who built wealth through ownership, education, planning, and faith—not shortcuts. The interview reinforces that success is not about one big idea, but about stacking smart decisions over time. Core message:Ownership + education + faith + execution = freedom. #BEST #STRAW #SHMSSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if one of the most powerful medicines for longevity, resilience, happiness, cognitive health, and disease prevention wasn't found in a supplement, a prescription, or a cutting-edge biohack—but in the people around you? In this powerful solo episode, Darin Olien dives into one of the most overlooked health crises of our time: loneliness. Drawing from the landmark 85-year Harvard Adult Development Study, the U.S. Surgeon General's loneliness epidemic report, Blue Zones research, neuroscience, and evolutionary biology, Darin reveals why meaningful human connection may be one of the strongest predictors of health and longevity ever discovered. From oxytocin, cortisol, inflammation, vagal tone, and nervous system regulation to suburban design, social media, and the collapse of community structures, Darin exposes the hidden biological costs of isolation—and offers a practical roadmap for rebuilding the human connections we were biologically designed to need.

Human connection isn't a luxury, a personality trait, or a nice bonus when life slows down. It is biology. It is medicine. And in a world increasingly designed for isolation, rebuilding community may be one of the most important health decisions we ever make."

Al and the Future of Plastic Surgery Artificial Intelligence is transforming industries around the world, and plastic surgery is no exception. In this episode of the Looking Good Feeling Great Podcast, host Dr. Jeffrey Roth of Las Vegas Plastic Surgery and co-host Darrell Craig Harris explore how Al is beginning to impact patient consultations, surgical planning, imaging technology, practice management, and the overall patient experience. Dr. Roth shares his perspective on the opportunities and limitations of Al in aesthetic medicine, discussing where technology can enhance outcomes and where the expertise, judgment, and artistry of a board-certified plastic surgeon remain irreplaceable. Whether you're considering a cosmetic procedure, work in healthcare, or are simply fascinated by the future of technology, this episode offers an insightful look at the evolving relationship between artificial intelligence and plastic surgery. Meet Dr. Jeffrey J. Roth from Las Vegas Plastic Surgery Drawn to medicine by his innate desire to help others, he received his medical degree from the University of Nevada School of Medicine. He completed his general surgery residency at the Medical College of Pennsylvania/Hahnemann University in Philadelphia and his plastic surgery residency at the University of California, San Francisco, serving as chief resident in both programs. He then furthered his training with a fellowship in microsurgery and hand surgery at USC, where he also served on the faculty. Having gathered the kind of expertise and experience that makes him a leader in his field, Dr. Roth returned to Las Vegas in 2003 and opened his practice, Las Vegas Plastic Surgery, Inc.
