Episode 387  - Why Some Make it, and Some Don't   Today we have Becca.   She is 43, from Montana, and took her last drink on September 18, 2017.   Sober Travel Update – Costa Rica 2023. Stay tuned for dates. www.recoveryelevator.com/events   Exact Nature:  https://exactnature.com/RE 20   Highlights from Paul   Paul believes that taking responsibility for your drinking or choosing not to be a victim increases your likelihood of “making it” L.” listening to this podcast means that you are open to new ideas, pathways, resources, and a new outlook on life. Paul suggests telling yourself that you will make it or are already there. Awareness that you have a drinking problem is the beginning, then ownership of the solution.    Paul believes a drinking problem is an invitation to a new life. Never quit quitting. Paul says yes, you are going to make it. You are already making it.    Better Help:  www.betterhelp.com/elevator - 10% off your first month. #sponsored                                                                               [11:07]  Becca has been sober for nearly five years.   Becca worked for 18 years as a chef/bartender. She rescues dogs, loves art, and reading. She went from food addiction to alcohol in her early twenties. She had a gastric bypass in 2005. She pre-gamed a bottle of booze before going out with her friends. She was able to lose 268 pounds and kept it off, but she was able to drink a lot of alcohol.   Becca describes several signs on the way to quitting drinking. She eventually went to Great Falls for inpatient treatment. After 17 years of constant drinking, the strict rehab included a lot of self-discoveries, and she had to earn privileges. The physical withdrawal was difficult because she was having seizures. Becca transitioned over to sober living. Shame was part of her inner dialogue. After eight months of sober living, she began working out. She opened her first business.     Becca's life is so much better. She would rather be involved in a national disaster than go back to her rock bottom with alcohol. Recovery isn't black and white. Routine is important, but she has learned to embrace the challenges that come with everyday life. She can hear the birds and the river in ways she hadn't before.    Daily reflections, post-it reminders, journaling, embracing nature, equine therapy, and surrounding herself with healthy support have been critical to maintaining sobriety. At five months sober, Becca was able to testify against someone who beat her up. She moved to Gardiner, MT, and fell in love with the area.    She studied coffee, created her own coffee recipe, and is proud to serve the best coffee on earth. She has strained out the things she no longer needs. Check out Bear's Brew in Gardiner, MT, if you head to Yellowstone.    Paul's Summary   Paul hates the term “making it” and knows that comparison is a trap. Internal goals can be problematic because of the ego. The gifts of recovery include: being present, enjoying the moments, and knowing that you have already made it. All pathways lead the way home. Paul embraces problems and tries to heed the lessons that come with them.    Upcoming events, retreats, and courses: You can find more information about our events   Resources Connect with Cafe RE - Use the promo code OPPORTUNITY to waive the set-up fee.

www.kaiehnes.com Ep33 Leaders and Lovers Hello and Welcome to the Way of the Emotional Warrior Podcast. My name is Kai Ehnes and today we will be answering the question of: What do great leaders and lovers have in common? In our current times of upheaval, a question that came up for me is what is a good leader? What in the world would make me want to follow anyone in this world, especially someone who thinks they are a leader? The first person that came to mind who wrote a great book on the issue is Simon Sinek. His book, Leaders Eat Last: Why Some Teams Pull Together and Some Don't, lays out core principles of what makes a good leader especially because what they accomplish is to bring people together into teams that produce ideas and work greater than any one single person could. A few of the core principles he proposes are as follows: Real responsibility means caring about other people and allowing yourself to get attached. Leaders need to take the mental and physical well-being of their followers into account if they want those followers to work as best as they can. To be an effective leader, you'll need to learn to delegate and trust people to do their work effectively. If you've done your job as a teacher and inspirational manager well enough, your followers should do what they need to perfectly. Humans First, Numbers Second I agree with Sinek that leaders with these qualities make it easy to follow them. The ship is moving in the right direction with an effective captain at the helm. So…What does this have to do with lovers? Nothing…I just wanted a cool title…just kidding

Feeling our feelings is scary, man. I didn't feel my feelings for...most of my life to be honest. I am a boy, and boys don't cry. Not until you really bottle stuff up and it makes you lash out on everyone you love around you and almost ruin your life. Whoops. On today's episode of Counter Culture Media, I interview the very wonderful Kris Godinez about where our reservations about getting help for our mental health comes from. To hear more from this talented woman, you can find her podcast on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHk_36kn2zDnVL-d23tE6bg. She has also written two books on psychology, 'What's Wrong With Your Dad' and 'You Can Lead A Horse To Water But You Can't Make 'Em Cha Cha: Why Some People Stay in Abuse and Some Don't' which you can find on Amazon and wherever fine books are sold. The books recommended throughout the episode for self-help are: The Inner Child Workbook by Cathryn Taylor The Self-Esteem Workbook by Glenn Schiraldi From Surviving to Thriving by Pete Walker The Disease to Please by Harriet Braiker Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl Support Counter Culture Media by liking and subscribing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube, Facebook, and Instagram.

Nate Silver is the founder of FiveThirtyEight and the author of The Signal and the Noise. “I know in a perfectly rational world, if you make an 80/20 prediction, people should know that not only will this prediction not be right all the time, but you did something wrong if it’s never wrong. The 20% underdog should come through sometimes. People in sports understand that sometimes a 15 seed beats a 2 seed in the NCAA tournament. That’s much harder to explain to people in politics.” Thanks to MailChimp, Bombas, Squarespace, and Trunk Club for sponsoring this week's episode.

Jack Butala: We provide free information through this show and inspiration that helps you buy property for half. In this episode, Jill and I talk about how some people get it and some don't get it at all. I promise, Jill, that I'll be professional and as nice as possible today on this topic because ... Jill DeWit: Okay. Jack Butala: ... Some people don't get it and we're going to talk about it. Jill, it sounds like a fun, silly show. Before we start, let's take a question posted on Successplant.com by one of our members on our free online community. Jill DeWit: Okay. Bob from Pittsburgh asks, "So I'm currently in the process of setting up an LLC for my real estate investment company. I'm looking for recommendations as to which route I should take to set this up. I'm in a toss up between hiring a real estate attorney who will charge you about 500 dollars to file the paperwork, or choosing an online company like RocketLawyer or LegalZoom which only costs me less than half of what the attorney will charge. What should I do?" Jack Butala: Yeah, so I think the bigger picture question is here, what stuff do I hire out and what stuff do I do myself? Bob, if you're asking this question, chances are you probably shouldn't file the LLC by yourself and save some money. All this legal stuff, for me personally, I sub it out Jill. I get somebody else to do it. You can save a lot of money doing certain stuff yourself but it's got to be stuff that you're good at. Jill DeWit: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Jack Butala: If you're going to renovate a house and you're a contractor, you should be the contractor on the job. For me to renovate a house and to pick up a hammer is a super bad idea so I hire that out. Bob, if you're an attorney, do it yourself. If you can't stand the thought of legal stuff, like me, hire a lawyer. They should charge you about 500- 500 is pretty reasonable for that by the way. Jill DeWit: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Jack Butala: If you do it yourself it's about a hundred. Jill DeWit: Well yeah. This is something that we talk about all the time, like, "Okay, I spent 8 hours learning how to do X, oh great. Did I really save money?" No. Jack Butala: Exactly, Jill. That's a perfect way to say that, you nailed it. Jill DeWit: I didn't save any money. I would've been better off paying somebody else to do that because I'm over here doing this which I do well and does make money. Jack Butala: I hear you say this to customers all the time, or potential members. Jill DeWit: I do. Jack Butala: I started this in 1999 and almost 16 thousand deals later, I made a ton of mistakes, so you can do that. If you're thinking about getting into real estate investment, you can spend 15 years working it out ... Jill DeWit: I did. Jack Butala: ... Or you can buy some of our material, which in the scheme of things is pretty darn cheap, and skip 12 years. Jill DeWit: I did. I used that just recently, it was cracking me up. I'm like, "Well, you want to get to where we are? All right, well, talk to you in 16 years. Let me know how that goes." Jack Butala: If you have a question or you want to be on the show, call 800-725-8816 and get your game on. When you call that number we'll have you on the show. If you're a super boring Eeyore type person, don't even bother to pick up the phone. Jill DeWit: Hi. My name is Dan and I have a question.

 It’s a double-header of greed, murder, and intrigue on this episode of the Screeners, but before we dive into the underbelly of society, we thought we’d make a quick pit stop. The Golden Globes are pretty much the entertainment industry’s way of satirizing itself—a bunch of rich people get together in a big room to get drunk, give each other awards, and put The Martian in the musical/comedy category. Ricky Gervais hosted, though, so at least everyone was uncomfortable. Other than those two things, though, was there anything the Screeners could have found worthy of comment?No? OK; let’s just head to the main event.Some People Go to Jail; Some Don’t...No One Knows WhyFirst on the list is another movie Chris swears isn’t a comedy, presumably because it uses big words. The Big Short focuses on the most digestible, straightforward topic of the last few decades—shoddy financial products invented to disguise other shoddy financial products by chopping them up into tiny pieces, bundling them, then selling them to high rollers on Wall Street. You know, the stuff that tanked the economy about 8 years ago. They’re covering it in elementary school now, right?There might be a bit of a generational difference among the Screeners when it comes to The Big Short, but diversity’s always a good thing—unless, of course, you happen to be casting a movie about the financial industry. After everyone’s done reliving their experiences of house shopping in the age of foreclosures, it’s time to move on to material that might be even more depressing: The documentary that’s become Netflix’s most recent cultural phenomenon. Making a Murderer follows a Wisconsin man wrongfully convicted of a crime in 1985, his exoneration after 18 years in prison, and his subsequent arrest and trial for murder (the title wouldn’t have had the same punch if he’d been charged with a DUI, would it?).Like we mentioned, the series has lit up debate on both sides of the aisle, and the Screeners just can’t help throwing in their two (four? eighteen hundred?) cents on the issue. Does the 10-hour distillation of the 10-year process work as a documentary? Is it a fair treatment? Most importantly, what do our favorite armchair lawyers think of the case’s merits?Once again, the Screeners are short on topics, but long on talk. Join us next time for our yearly retrospective—we’ll go over everyone’s favorite and least favorite movies of 2015, find out about some underrated films you might have missed, and answer the most important question of all:  Did Josh actually see 10 movies last year, or is he just plagiarizing his lists from Buzzfeed? Until then, as always, join us on Facebook!

The hosts discuss developing good client relationships with Matthew Chan. Matt is a client of Oscar’s and he has had the opportunity to see litigation and lawyering from a variety of positions – as a pro se plaintiff and defendant, to a business owner who has had to hire lawyers for litigation and even from the perspective of a litigant before the Georgia Supreme Court, the State’s highest court. Seeing law at all these levels has provided Matt with insight into what clients and litigants like and don’t like about lawyers and lawyering. Matt describes that ultimately what clients want is someone who is a real problem solver and that can explain the issues and the possibilities. The vast majority of clients want something done sooner rather than later and want to feel that their lawyer is on the same page and not looking to just pad the bill. Some Don’ts for Lawyers from Matt’s perspective as a client: • Don’t bill lots of hours for research – clients hired you because you know the law, billing for research should be reserved for specific issues that may come up, but clients don’t want to pay for your continuing education • Don’t nickel and dime clients – Do you really need to bill for every email or five minute phone call? • Consider giving a free consultation because many clients won’t go to a lawyer if they are charging a significant consultation fee. Things Matt looks for in an attorney when he is shopping for legal services: • Relevant experience – while many newer businesses or younger clients may need to go to a young lawyer based on price, clients want to go to the most-experienced lawyer they can afford. Experience gives clients confidence and reassurance• More and more he looks to a lawyer’s online presence and “tech savviness” as that gives him confidence that the lawyer is up to current standards• Lawyers with people skills – clients who need lawyers are in serious stress and a lawyer’s bedside manner and how they relate and respond to you is critical in the relationship. • Good communication and regular feedback is key as well. Ask a client how he prefers to communicate and how often are they expecting to hear from your lawyer.The hosts talk with Matt about the need for lawyers to be flexible to a client’s needs and expectations as well and discuss that early on in their relationship. Discuss these issues and goals with clients so everyone can be on the same page. The podcast provides objectives and goals for any solo or small firm that can help them develop better client relationships so that they can grow their practice from a client-centric perspective.
