If your kid has ever looked you directly in the eyes and lied, even when you KNOW they know that you know the truth…you probably know the immediate panic spiral:Why are they lying to me? Is this normal? Can I trust them? If they're doing this at five, what happens when they're FIFTEEN?!And suddenly, this isn't about who ate the cookie or knocked over the toy, you're imagining your teenager lying about where they are, who they're with, what happened at the party, or something much, much bigger.But here's what most of us get wrong: If we want to raise kids who tell us the truth when it really matters, we have to be careful that our reaction to lying doesn't accidentally teach them that telling us the truth is dangerous.In this episode, Deena puts on her child therapist hat and breaks down what's actually happening when kids lie and why lying doesn't automatically mean you're raising a dishonest kid. In fact, there are several completely different reasons kids lie, and each one needs a different response.You'll leave this episode knowing why your kid is lying, what their lie is actually trying to accomplish, and exactly how to respond in the moment plus:- What to say when you know they're lying- When to use consequences- Why you don't need to force a confession- How to hold your boundary without making your kid afraid to tell you the truth next time.Most importantly, you'll learn exactly what to say and do when your kid lies to your face, without being permissive, letting them "get away with it," shaming them, or turning the whole thing into a 45-minute interrogation.Someday, the mistake won't be a stolen cookie, an iPad after bedtime, or marker on the table. It'll be something bigger. And in that moment, we want the thought that's louder than I'm going to be in so much trouble to be:I need to tell my mom.This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Could there be a better form of government than the one we have now? As we enter an AI-powered world, when might we choose an AI leader? Will your grandchildren ever vote for a human president, who comes with a political party & the weaknesses of a human, or will they vote for a system that has a jaw-dropping capacity to extract patterns from vast rivers of data, simulate millions of possible futures, & govern with a deeper wisdom than a human could naturally possess? Will we all have personal AI agents that know our strongest political opinions, such that we finally achieve (for the first time at scale) a direct democracy rather than a representative one? Join Eagleman as he explores the future of an AI leader (pros & cons) and where he thinks we’re inevitably heading.

What if the most important thing you ever teach your child isn't a parenting strategy... it's a belief they'll carry for the rest of their life?Someday our children are going to get their heart broken, they'll fail, They'll wonder if they're enough, they'll navigate in tricky relationships, they'll be choosing career paths. And in those moments, they won't remember your lecture about cleaning their room, but they will remember what they believe about themselves.In this episode, fan favorite VP Hype Squad (my husband) is back, and we share the five beliefs we're intentionally trying to pass on to our kids, the things that will shape every friendship, relationship, career, and decision our kids make for the rest of their lives.You'll leave this episode knowing:The belief that protects kids from becoming lifelong people-pleasers.How to raise a child who doesn't spend their life trying to earn love or approval.The one mindset shift that completely changes what you focus on as a parent.Five core beliefs that will outlast every parenting hack, consequence, and script.This ended up becoming one of my favorite conversations we've ever had. It's about parenting, yes. But it's also about us. The beliefs we inherited, the ones we're still trying to unlearn, and the ones worth passing on instead. I have a feeling this is going to be one you'll think about long after it ends.This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Someday, someone else will have to put on the armor… right? Robert Downey Jr. didn't just play Tony Stark—he helped define what Iron Man looks, sounds, and feels like for an entire generation. So if Marvel eventually recasts the role, how does another actor make Tony Stark his own without simply doing an RDJ impression? In this episode of Marvel Maniac, Eric explores whether audiences are ready for a new Iron Man, what parts of Tony truly belong to the character versus the actor who made him iconic, and why Hugh Jackman's return as Wolverine may offer a blueprint for Tony Stark's future. And then there's another possibility: what if Marvel doesn't need a new Iron Man just yet? Could Robert Downey Jr. return as a different Tony Stark with a different history—and could that launch an entirely new trilogy beginning with Iron Man: Reforged? It's speculation. It's theory. And it's one Marvel fan asking a question that once seemed impossible: Are we really finished with Iron Man? Listen wherever you get your podcasts! ⭐ Enjoying Marvel Maniac?

Tuesday, 4 August 2026 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures: ‘The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. This was the Lord's doing, And it is marvelous in our eyes'?” Matthew 21:42 “He says to them, the ‘Jesus', ‘Never you read in the Scriptures? “Stone – which they rejected, those building – this, It has become to ‘head, corner'. From ‘Lord', it was, this, And it is marvelous in ‘eyes, ours'.”'” (CG). In the previous verse, the response to Jesus concerning what the housemaster would do was that he would come and destroy them and lease his vineyard out to others willing to render him the fruits when they were ready. Next, it says, “He says to them, the ‘Jesus'.” Mark and Luke seemed to differ in who the speaker was in the previous verse, but all three agree that Jesus is the One who says the next words, beginning with, “Never you read in the Scriptures.” Jesus returns to Scripture to make His point. He cites Psalm 118:22. Depending on who the author of the Psalm is, it would have been between four hundred and a thousand years old at the time of Jesus. What is implied in His quoting this psalm is that He understood that the Scriptures were both reliable and authoritative. Further, there was a context to the words that was to be understood at the time when they would be fulfilled. Various interpretations of what the psalm was referring to were made, such as that it references David or Israel the nation. However, the context within the psalm clearly identifies it as referring to the Messiah who would be recognized by His rejection at some point. As for the words, they come from the Greek translation of the Old Testament. Jesus begins the citation with, “‘Stone – which they rejected, those building – this'.” The metaphor of a stone suddenly comes forward. But it is not inconsistent. The last reference in the parable was that of the son. Jesus is saying that the son in the parable is the Stone in the psalm. Jesus implies here that because the psalm speaks of the Stone, which is the son in the parable, He is the fulfillment of the Psalm. He further implies that He is the Son of the Housemaster as conveyed in the parable. Everything is being tied together, and the leaders would fully understand His intent. Of this rejected Stone, He continues with, “It has become to ‘head, corner'.” A stone was looked over in the quarry for shape, size, beauty, etc. When it was considered, those doing the building rejected it. Jesus is telling them, in advance, that He would be rejected by them, just as the son was rejected by the vinedressers. In Jesus' case, Isaiah 53 says that the Messiah would have no form or comeliness and that there was no beauty in Him that made Him desirable. He was overlooked as someone unfit for ruling, or so they thought. However, the One who was rejected became the very foundation stone of the temple. Jesus continues, “From ‘Lord', it was, this.” This was God's design all along. He determined when His Messiah would come, what He would look like, where He would grow up, etc. Every aspect of who Jesus is was determined by the Lord to perfectly fit His designs. Once this was understood by those seeing it, Jesus finishes with, “And it is marvelous in ‘eyes, ours'.” Those who see who Jesus is and how God orchestrated all things in relation to His being the Messiah, would consider it marvelous. Two thousand years later, this continues to be true. Each person who comes to God by seeing what He has done through Jesus finds it wondrous. Someday, even those who rejected Jesus will stand before God and consider His ways. They too will find it wondrous, but for them, it will be too late. Life application: Consider the love of God in what He has done in the giving of Jesus. If God wanted to rule over the people from the start with a brutal fist and a demanding hand, He could have done so. Instead, He slowly and methodically laid forth the plan of redemption both in literal history and in typology found in stories from that same history. That way, He could lead the world to Jesus while showing what He had done and would do in Jesus' coming, and even till the end of the age. Throughout it all, the story continuously brings us back to God's care for those who demonstrate faith in who He is and what He has done and will do. For us, that faith is in the giving of His Son. He was willing to send Jesus to bring us back to Himself, and all He asks of us is to believe. What a great, glorious, and loving God to do what He has done. Lord God, thank You for Your tender mercies which You have lavished upon us. Thank You that while there was enmity, You came forward to offer peace. We love You and praise You for Your tender mercies. Amen.
Saturday, 1 August 2026 So they took him and cast him out of the vineyard and killed him. Matthew 21:39 “And having taken him, they ejected from the vineyard, and they killed.” (CG) In the previous verse, the agronomists saw the son and plotted to kill him and take his inheritance. Following through with their plot, it next says, “And having taken him, they ejected from the vineyard.” As has been seen, the vineyard represents the economy (a cultural expression) where God is dealing with man in order to bring about a result. Therefore, this refers to Jesus being handed over to the Gentiles for sentencing. It was essentially an act of excommunication from them by doing this. Barabbas was under the Gentile's full authority. The leaders of Israel asked for him to be returned to them and for Jesus to go under their full authority to be crucified. This is what happened. Thus, Jesus' next words, “and they killed.” Whether they actually did the killing or not, the guilt of it was theirs – “When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a tumult was rising, he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, ‘I am innocent of the blood of this just Person. You see to it.' 25 And all the people answered and said, ‘His blood be on us and on our children.' 26 Then he released Barabbas to them; and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified.” Matthew 27:24-26 Through the parable, Jesus is already speaking of His death as a certainty. It is certain that the handing of Jesus over to the Gentiles is what is being referred to in being ejected from the vineyard because Mark reverses the two thoughts, saying they killed him and cast him out. This remains true because they did kill Jesus, and they disavowed Him as the Messiah. As such, being cast out is not a reference to Jesus' death outside the city walls. It is a reference to being cast out of the cultural expression where God is dealing with man. Instead, Jesus has been a part of the Gentile-led cultural expression since then. Israel has no national dealings with Him to this day. Life application: Of this verse, Ellicott says – “Cast him out of the vineyard.—The minor touches of a parable are not always to be pressed in our interpretation of it; but we can hardly help seeing here a latent reference to the facts (1) that our Lord was delivered over to the judgment of the Gentiles; and (2) that He was crucified outside the Holy City, (John 19:20; Hebrews 13:12), which was, in a special sense, as the vineyard of the Lord of Hosts.” The minor touches of a parable are a part of the parable. If God is giving it to us, every touch of it has meaning. Because Ellicott misunderstood the typology of the vineyard, he incorrectly evaluated the meaning of the vineyard. Jerusalem may be the seat of power in the vineyard, but it is not the vineyard. Jesus is building on the words of Isaiah. The vineyard is referred to in Isaiah 1:8 and 3:14. From there, Isaiah 5:1-7, a song of His Beloved “regarding His vineyard,” is given. The words of verse 7 say, “For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel.” It is the cultural expression that defines the vineyard. Jesus' words remain in accord with this typology. Therefore, the metaphors being used are understandable and should be consistently maintained. When they are, there is no need to worry about the “minor touches” of a parable, as if they are unimportant. They will fit seamlessly with the larger details. Someday, Israel will again be the cultural expression in which Jesus is proclaimed. The world is being readied for that today. After the rapture, things will go into hyperdrive as the world begins to tear itself apart. However, God's plan will unfold as the pages of Scripture detail. Israel will be saved, and Jesus will return to them at that time. Be firm in your convictions concerning Israel. Many are turning from them today, and that is fine in regard to their unholy practices. But it is not fine if we reject what God is doing to bring them back to Himself. We don't have to like the things they do, but we should pray for God's will to be done in and through them. And because the pages of Scripture are written, we know it will be. Lord God, we pray for Your plan of redemption to continue to unfold, knowing that it will because You have spoken. We pray for deliverance at the rapture, safety for Israel through the tribulation, and a great reunion of them with Jesus, whom they have for so long rejected. May these things come about according to Your word. Amen.

Today on To the Core, I'm taking you into a conversation that is deeply personal to me—creating a life you're genuinely obsessed with, starting right where you are. For so long, we can find ourselves waiting for "someday." Someday when we have more time. Someday when things feel easier. Someday when we finally have everything figured out. But what if that someday never comes? What if the life you want is something you can start creating with the choices you make today? In this episode, I'm sharing some of the mindset shifts that helped me move from losing everything to rebuilding my life with intention. I talk about what it means to stop living on autopilot, get honest about what you're tolerating, and define success based on what actually matters to you not what society tells you it should look like. We'll get into why you should be obsessed with your own life first, how small, consistent wins can build confidence, why perfectionism can keep you stuck, and how setting boundaries can help you create more space for the life you truly want. Most importantly, this is a reminder that no one is coming to save you and that's not meant to scare you. It's meant to empower you. Your future self is being created by the decisions you make today. So if you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something more, this episode is your invitation to stop waiting and start doing. Listen to this podcast and join me as we go To the Core because your story isn't finished, and you get to decide what comes next.

#736: A bride wants to spend $60,000 on her wedding — money that could grow to $800,000 in 40 years if she invested it instead. This week, three very different listener questions all boil down to the same fight: what the math says versus what actually makes you happy.
God will keep every promise He ever made to you. He will not fulfill your potential. That part is on you.If that makes you uncomfortable, good.We've been handed a soft version of faith. Just believe, and God does the rest. Sit back. Let go and let God. It sounds humble. It sounds spiritual. And it's leaving good men stranded.Because there's a difference between a promise and your potential, and almost nobody teaches it.In this episode I walk through:Why the Bible reads like a graveyard of men who had the calling and still died short. Moses on the mountain, looking at a Promised Land he never entered. A whole generation that died in the desert. The servant who buried what he was given and got called wicked and lazy.The line that changes everything: God's promises are guaranteed. Your potential is not.Why Paul says work out your salvation with fear and trembling, and in the same breath, for it is God who works in you. Both. Take out God's part and it's self-help. Take out yours and it's wishful thinking.The two ways a man forfeits his potential. Passive, waiting on a feeling and calling it faith. Or presumptuous, grinding in his own strength and calling it ambition. Both die short of the land.This is not a call to strive harder on your own steam. It's a call to move with God, and to move now. He made you for dominion. To cross the river and take the territory with His hand on your shoulder.The version of you on the other side of that river gets a little further away every year you don't cross. Someday is where potential goes to die.New episodes every week on biblical masculinity, Christian manhood, calling, and what it takes to become a Kingdom Driven Man.FREE DOWNLOAD: Built to Dominate breaks down the 3 lies that keep driven Christian men stranded on the wrong side of the river.

Send us Fan MailEvery entrepreneur knows the temptation to wait — for more money, more confidence, more perfect timing. This week's Monday Morning Motivation starts with one line from Arnold Schwarzenegger: "You can't climb the ladder of success with your hands in your pockets." From there, it's a story about two farmers, the hidden cost of "someday," and why growth almost never happens inside your comfort zone.If you've been staring at your ladder instead of climbing it, this one's for you.
Saturday, 18 July 2026 The baptism of John—where was it from? From heaven or from men?” And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,' He will say to us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?' Matthew 21:25 “The ‘immersion, John', whence it was? From heaven or from men?” These, also, they deliberated with themselves, saying, ‘If we should say, “From heaven', He will say to us, ‘Through why, therefore, not you believed him?'” (CG) In the previous verse, it said that Jesus, while speaking to the chief priests and elders, said that He would answer their question if they would first answer His question. Continuing, He now asks that question, beginning with, “The ‘immersion, John'.” His question deals with John the Baptist's work, meaning his immersing people as described earlier in Matthew. As John's main mission was to baptize people based on acknowledging wrongdoing and reconsidering their ways, the “immersion, John” encompasses his entire ministry, all of which was as a precursor, preparing the people for the coming of the Messiah. His specific question concerning that is, “whence it was?” In other words, these leaders had just come to Jesus asking by what authority He was doing what He did. Specifically, who gave Him the authority? Jesus, taking the initiative, asks the same basic question concerning John's call to baptize. Where did that authority come from? He continues, asking, “From heaven or from men?” It is a logical question. These leaders want to know who gave Jesus His authority. But John openly and explicitly testified concerning Jesus, as recorded in John 1. Therefore, before they can rightly understand Jesus' authority, they would first need to understand and confess John's source of authority. Was it sent by God, or was it something that he or another man conjured up? Having asked that, it next says of the leaders, “These, also, they deliberated with themselves.” One can see they are in a pickle. If they knew the answer, they would just say it directly, unless there was a reason why they didn't want to admit it publicly. Therefore, either they don't know the answer, which means they have no right to know where Jesus' authority came from, or (because John testified concerning Jesus) they knew and were unwilling to state what they believed to be true. If this were the case, they would again have no right to an answer from Jesus. In their deliberations, they were “saying, ‘If we should say, “From heaven”, He will say to us, “Through why, therefore, not you believed him?”'” This reveals the first part of the reason for the pickle they are in. If John's commission was from God, then they would have to admit that Jesus was the Messiah. John openly proclaimed Him as the One, testifying that He was the promised Messiah – “The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, ‘Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! 30 This is He of whom I said, ‘After me comes a Man who is preferred before me, for He was before me.' 31 I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came baptizing with water.' 32 And John bore witness, saying, ‘I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him. 33 I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, “Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.” 34 And I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.'” John 1:29-34 Life application: As noted before, Jesus is not being disrespectful to these leaders. He is making an obvious case that in asking Him for the source of His authority, they would only entrap themselves by His answer when they gave it. He is giving them a chance to back up from whatever their plans were and to think the matter through logically. Would it change their hearts or minds toward Jesus? Probably not. But it would allow Him to continue His ministry until the time appointed by the Father. If they thought about John's source of authority and decided he was sent by God, maybe some of them would be determined to accept John's words and believe in Jesus. If they rejected John's ministry, thus rejecting the One who sent him, then they would never accept Jesus. Instead, they would look for another way to have Him removed. That is what will come about, but before it does, there are a few days of His ministry left. A great deal of important information will be recorded concerning what He will tell the people of Israel. He will detail what will come upon them because of their rejection of Him. Someday, the words He will speak in these final days will be evaluated by them, and they will see that He is, in fact, the Messiah they rejected so long ago. The leader's failure to provide a response to Jesus at this time has allowed Jesus' words to continue on as necessary for the people's future eyes to be opened. Lord God, Israel, and indeed the whole world, have difficult times ahead. As wickedness increases, our time is drawing short. Someday, You will call Your church home, and the world will have to decide where they stand in relation to Jesus. We pray that before that day comes, many eyes will be opened to the truth of His glory. Amen.
Friday, 17 July 2026 But Jesus answered and said to them, “I also will ask you one thing, which if you tell Me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things: Matthew 21:24 “Answering, also, the ‘Jesus', He said to them, ‘I will entreat you, I also, word one, which if you should say to Me, I also to you, I will say in where-such authority these I do.'” (CG) In the previous verse, the chief priests and elders of the people confronted Jesus, asking by what authority He was doing the things He was doing. Matthew next records, “Answering, also, the ‘Jesus', He said to them, ‘I will entreat you, I also, word one.'” As with Hebrew, a “word” signifies more than just a word. It can signify a matter, cause, concern, inquiry, request, and so much more. Following that, English uses it in various ways as well. We might say, “What's the good word today?” That means more than a word in a Cryptoquip or some other puzzle. We are asking about how a person is doing, what they are up to, etc. In this case, Jesus is asking these leaders to explain something. If they will adequately respond, then He will continue in one way. If they cannot or if they refuse to respond, He will continue in another way. Their response to the word He entreats them to give is thus conditional, as He next says, “which if you should say to Me, I also to you, I will say in where-such authority these I do.” They have asked Jesus under what authority He is acting. The answer might not be difficult to provide, but because Jesus has set a condition, it means they must be careful in how they answer. In such a situation, there will always be some sort of blowback to giving the wrong response. However, if they respond with a proper explanation to His request, they will have their answer from Him. One could say, “That is disobedient to the rulers of the land, something the law does not allow.” Because of this, we can already guess that the question He will ask them will put them on the spot concerning the authority of the law, or it will bear on the source of the law, where it came from, or how it came about. This is a logical assumption because if they cannot sufficiently explain His request, they will actually have no right to know under whose authority Jesus was acting. We can use this same tactic when dealing with judges, politicians, taxing authorities, etc. Where does authority come from? In the case of these leaders, their authority is derived from the Law of Moses. It is what established them as the people of the Lord in a unique way. As such, these men must work within the confines of that body of law to justify their requests, decisions, and mandates. Life application: In the US, the thing that establishes the law of the land is not the Congress, the judicial system, or the president. The US Constitution is the framework that establishes the government and all bodies that operate within the government. This is why the left has attempted to call the Constitution an “organic document,” as if it is alive and changing with time and circumstance. They reject the early writings, which were foundational to understanding the purpose behind the writing and approval of the Constitution. But there is a reason for each thing mandated in the Constitution. To reject the reason behind those mandates empties them of any reasonable purpose. And so, of course, they relish in ignoring that intent. Further, if the constitution is organic and changing, then it is up to whatever government is in power to clip it according to their supposed skill at pruning what is unnecessary. This is how bad people operate. They have no care for the duly established basis for whatever government they live under. Instead, they work against the recognized authority. In the case of the US, the recognized authority for the operation of the government is, first and foremost, the US Constitution. In working against that, they violate the words of Scripture, which were ever on the minds of the Founding Fathers – “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.” Romans 13:1 John Adams said, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Understanding this, it is evident why those who hate God and what is moral, just, and proper will do their best to undermine the authority and rigid structure of the Constitution. Thank God that there is hope in Christ for a better life beyond this one. Jesus' question will be one that deals with authority. If they cannot answer His question, they have no right to know what they have asked Him. People ask for answers from God all the time, but unless they are asking through His Mediator, they have no right to an answer. This is the glory of knowing Jesus: we can come to God through Him and ask questions, hoping for a response that will give us wisdom, comfort, and hope. He will answer according to His wisdom. Someday, this will be in a manner we cannot even imagine at this time. Hold fast to Jesus. Great things lie ahead for His redeemed. Lord God, some of us live in godly nations. Some of us live under difficult, ungodly rulers. You have appointed our times and places, and we must live through them as best we can and in accord with Your word. But our hope isn't in this life. No! Our hope is in the life that is ahead when we are in Your presence under a new, eternal rule in the presence of Jesus. May that day be soon. Amen.

When we set out to build the 2.0 editor, another editor in the CodePen cannon, the goal was actually to reduce the number of editors we have and support. Ideally, reduce it to one. The trick is that anything an existing Pen or Project can do, this new editor needs to be able to do as well. All while making sure it's forever future extensible. That was the wild engineering task in front of us, and we're happy to report it's done. To be clear, at the time of publishing: all Projects have been converted to 2.0 Pens, so Projects doesn't even exist anymore. Someday we'll convert Pens too, but not particularly soon. Instead, you can choose to convert Classic Pens (with a button click under the Save menu) if you want to. Sponsor: Notion With the recent launch of Custom Agents, Notion became the collaborative AI workspace where teams and agents work side by side. And now, their new Developer Platform is turning that workspace into infrastructure developers can build on. Time Jumps
What if the real midlife crisis isn't running out of time — it's living like you have more time than you actually do?In this episode, Laurie gets personal. She shares the story of her dad, who spent decades saying "someday when I retire" — only to die five months after his retirement at 66, having collected exactly five social security checks after a 46-year career. That story cracked everything open for her. And it's the reason so much of the work at the School of Midlife is built around one urgent question: what are you waiting for?This episode isn't about panic. It's about clarity. It's a compassionate but honest look at the habit most high-achieving women share — perpetually deferring the life they actually want — and a practical reframe for how to start living it now, not someday.Laurie also introduces one of her favorite coaching tools, the Best Life Top 100, and explains why it is fundamentally different from a bucket list — and why that distinction matters more than it might seem.What we coverWhy Laurie doesn't believe in the "midlife crisis" — and what she believes is actually happening insteadThe story of her dad: 46 years of work, five months of retirement, and the lesson that changed how she looks at everythingThe "someday when I retire" trap — and why there is always one more reason to waitWhy the conditions will never be perfect — and what happens to women who keep waiting for them to beThe south of France thought experiment: what happens when you finally get to retirement and the life you imagined doesn't feel like yoursThe women who thrive in midlife versus the women who keep living the same year on repeatThe BEST LIFE Top 100: what it is, what it isn't, and why it's not a bucket listThe difference between a list built around doing things before you die — and a list built around how you want to live while you are aliveWhy the Top 100 women actually end up with looks almost nothing like the list they thought they'd write — and why that's exactly the pointThe quiet dreams versus the big bold ones — and why they belong on the same listThe question that cracks everything open: of the things on your Top 100, how many actually require you to wait?Why the direction matters more than the destination right nowThe challenge: write down one thing this week — and DM Laurie to tell her what it isQuotable moments"The real crisis in midlife isn't buying a sports car or having an affair. It's believing that you have more time than you actually do.""Dad had so many plans for retirement. Someday never came.""He worked 46 years of his life and was rewarded with five months of retirement.""There is always another reason to wait. There is always another something that comes up. Which means you keep deferring your dreams.""Life always has a way of life-ing.""The Top 100 is not about doing things before you die. It's about how you want to live while you are alive.""It's dreaming with intention. It's your living blueprint. It's your permission slip to stop waiting.""The list they end up with looks almost nothing like the list they thought they'd write.""Stop treating your best life like it's something that exists somewhere in the future, waiting for you to earn it or arrive at it or be ready for it.""The women who are the most fulfilled in midlife aren't the ones who have the most things on their list completed. They're the ones who started.""The real midlife crisis isn't running out of time. It's living like you have more time than you actually do."The challenge from this episodePick one thing you would put on your BEST LIFE Top 100 list. Something that would make you feel more alive, more aligned, more you. Write it down.

What happens when the life you worked so hard for no longer feels like your dream? In this deeply honest conversation, author + self-healing expert Yasmine Cheyenne joins Lindsey to unpack burnout, reinvention, and the emotional reality of entering your “comeback era.” Yasmine opens up about the pressure women feel to hold everything together while secretly feeling disconnected. From motherhood and ambition to the weight of comparison and perfectionism, she shares how self-betrayal kept her stuck—and why honesty finally set her free. Together, they discuss reconnecting with your younger self + learning how to trust your desires again. Yasmine shares wisdom on boundaries, self-worth + taking small steps toward the life you actually want. This conversation is a powerful reminder that it's never too late to choose yourself. We also talk about: Reconnecting with your younger self Why success can still feel unfulfilling Comparison, perfectionism + self-betrayal The fear of starting over later in life Building self-trust through small daily steps Boundaries, honesty + hard conversations Grieving old versions of yourself Redefining success on your own terms Giving yourself permission to choose yourself Resources: http://yasminecheyenne.com http://instagram.com/yasminecheyenne https://www.harpercollins.com/products/the-comeback-era-yasmine-cheyenne?variant=44065298153506 https://yasminecheyenne.substack.com/ Order our book, Almost 30: A Definitive Guide To A Life You Love For The Next Decade and Beyond, here: https://bit.ly/Almost30Book.
