If rising costs have you questioning how to stay afloat, you are not alone. Does it feel like the holiday season quietly got canceled this year? Is there a quiet, unsettling fear in the background about safety, control, and where the world is headed? Michael welcomes Sonia Choquette, bestselling author, six-sensory consultant, and transformational visionary guide, for a profound dialogue about navigating the "mush" of our current reality. Sonia Choquette reveals the SHOCKING TRUTH beneath the surface: the destabilization you feel isn't the end, it's the "birth canal" of a new humanity. This isn't about surviving the chaos; this is about understanding that VIBRATION is your first language. Discover why we are shifting from a 3D material world to a multi-dimensional reality, how to stop "protecting" yourself so you can finally expand, and the exact tools to keep your spirit bright when the world feels dark. Key Topics: Why the collapse of old structures and the "contractions" we feel are actually signs of a new, higher consciousness being born. Vibration is Your First Language: Why words are obsolete and how to become "vibrationally literate" to navigate the new world. The new scientific term for intuition and why your "gut feelings" are actually accurate energetic sensing. Sonia brings through Joaquin (Emissary of the Third Ray) to deliver a powerful message on why you are in no danger. The Myth of Protection: Why trying to "protect" your energy actually causes fear-based contraction, and why EXPANSION is the only true safety. A simple 3-word question ("How's your spirit?") that instantly shifts any conversation from ego to soul. How to stimulate your vagal nerve and instantly reset your nervous system through song. Sonia's prediction on why the darkness is already waning and how inspiration will replace fear in 2026. This is a lifeline for the sensitive soul. If you have been feeling ungrounded, dizzy, or overwhelmed, this message will help you remember that the situation may be critical, but it is NEVER serious. Join the Inspire Nation Soul Family!

"It's too late for me."I had this worry, but I finally hit publish on my first podcast episode at 40.I thought I'd missed the boat. Everyone else had already started, and I wondered if I was too old to become a creator in an industry that thinks you expire at 35. I was terrified to try something new in public.But here's what I've learned: that "too late" feeling? It's just plain old straight-up fear wearing a really convincing disguise.I feel so strongly about debunking this myth that today, in this special episode, I get the chance to flip the mic and be interviewed by Rhona Barnett-Pierce on her podcast, Workfluencer. We're getting into all the messy, uncomfortable stuff about starting something new when you feel like you've missed your window.We talk about:→ The year I spent overthinking instead of doing (and why that was such a waste) → How to actually start when you don't feel ready (because you never will) → Why your age might actually be the thing that makes you better at this → What to do when people think you're cringe (spoiler: you gotta lean in) → Where to find support when your friends and family don't get it → The real timeline from "I'm terrified" to "okay, I'm doing this"This conversation is for you if:→ You've been thinking about starting something but keep finding reasons to wait→ You're staring down a layoff or career pivot and don't know what's next→ You want to build something of your own but feel like you've missed your chance→ You're tired of the voice in your head saying "not ready yet"→ You need someone to tell you it's okay to be scared and do it anywayLook, I'm not going to tell you it's easy. Starting something new at 40—especially something visible like starting a new business or jumping into content creation—is uncomfortable as hell. But the alternative is spending the rest of your life wondering "what if?" And I really, really don't want that for you.At the end of the day, “everyone's cringe until they make it. Then people pretend they supported you all along." (Thanks to my 28-year-old social media consultant for that gem.)I hope this conversation gives you permission to just start. Scared, unprepared, "too old," whatever. Just start. Let's make 2026 the year you go for it, whatever your “it” might be. The world needs you!Speaking of 2026, we'll be taking a holiday break til then. Happy Holidays to you and yours!Resources:-Get Corporate-level Health Coverage for Solopreneurs with a 50% Discount for 1st Three Months - https://essentlcreator.com/maureenConnect with Rhona Barnett-Pierce:-LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rhonabarnettpierce/-Website: https://www.workfluencerpodcast.com/Connect with Maureen Clough:-LinkedIn: maureenwclough - https://www.linkedin.com/in/maureenwclough/-Website: itgetslateearly.com - https://www.itgetslateearly.com/-Instagram:

Ever notice how quickly we jump to the next thing—new job, new podcast, new scroll—without finishing what's in front of us? We chase novelty as if the cure for boredom lives just over the horizon. But what if the real fix isn't finding something new, it's learning to make what matters feel new again?We unpack the honest reasons people leave: the job that lost its spark, the marriage that feels routine, the study that no longer stirs the heart. Instead of shaming those impulses, we trace them to burnout and a preview-first mindset shaped by endless feeds and constant options. Then we pivot to a different practice: renewal. Drawing on the spirit of Chanukah—rooted in chinuch, dedication and beginnings—we explore how to re-dedicate commitments so they stay alive. That means meeting work with purpose, nurturing relationships with simple daily rituals, and approaching learning as if it's being given today.Through historical lessons about what happens when service turns rote, we highlight the cost of “meh” and the power of youthful zeal grounded in worth. Renewal isn't hype; it's clear-eyed value that energizes action. You'll hear practical ways to revive meaning: finish more often, set small constraints that focus attention, re-anchor goals to people you serve, and light figurative candles that mark fresh starts. This is a roadmap for those who feel the drift and want their commitments—career, love, or faith—to glow again instead of dimming into habit.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with someone who needs a reset, and leave a quick review to tell us where you'll begin again today.Support the showJoin The Motivation Congregation WhatsApp community for daily motivational Torah content!---------------- SUBSCRIBE to The Weekly Parsha for an insightful weekly talk on the week's Parsha.

Have you ever welcomed something new into your life, something you thought would fill you with joy, only to feel guilt instead?In this episode of Sarah's Thoughts, Sarah Grynberg reflects on the unexpected emotions that surfaced when she brought home her new puppy, Maggie. What she believed would be a moment of pure happiness was instead met with guilt, as though she was replacing her beloved Lola, along with a wave of grief and confusion. Through this tender experience, Sarah explores a universal truth: we don't just grieve the ones we've lost, we grieve the seasons of life they held. A past job, a past relationship, even a past version of ourselves can bring the same quiet ache when a new chapter begins.You'll learn:Why new beginnings can stir old grief, and why that's completely normal.How to make space for new love without feeling like you're abandoning the past.Simple reminders to help you move forward gently, without forcing joy before it's ready.This is an episode about understanding that love isn't replaced, it expands. Moving forward doesn't erase what was meaningful. It simply shows that your heart is still open, still capable, and still growing.Purchase Sarah's book: Living A Life Of Greatness here.To purchase Living A Life of Greatness outside Australia here or here.Watch A Life of Greatness Episodes On Youtube here.Sign up for Sarah's newsletter (Greatness Guide) here.Purchase Sarah's Meditations here.Instagram: @sarahgrynberg Website: https://sarahgrynberg.com/Facebook: facebook.com/sarahgrynbergTwitter: twitter.com/sarahgrynberg Hosted on Acast.

If your marketing feels like it's stuck in a constant cycle of starting over, this episode will hit home. "Shiny object syndrome" – that impulse to chase every new trend when results don't come fast enough – has a cost. In this episode, Emma explains why consistency, not constant change, is the real driver of long-term marketing success. She breaks down how frequent pivots confuse algorithms, audiences, and even your internal team, resetting your growth every week. Think of it this way: just like your monthly retirement investments, consistent content acts like compounding interest, building data, trust, and algorithmic strength over time. Whether you're rebuilding your online presence or refining a mature strategy, this bite-size episode will remind you that steady, strategic consistency is what scales. Listen in as Emma explains: Why constantly changing your marketing strategy resets your progress each week How consistency builds algorithmic trust, audience recognition, and data reliability How often to review performance so you can make data-driven, not panic-driven, adjustments   And so much more!   Connect with Ninety Five Media: Check out our website: ninetyfivemedia.co Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/ninety.five.media  Grow your brand's social media presence with us:  Tell us about your business goals and explore how our social media management services can help you reach them! ninetyfivemedia.co/stop-scrolling-start-scaling-inquiry

Could a pandemic business-plan lesson for a bored kid spark the next breakout fast-casual brand?This episode moves fast — because Rob Gresham's career has never slowed down. Chris Ressa sits with the restaurant veteran who went from washing dishes at 15 to helping architect the early operational engine behind CAVA's meteoric growth from zero to 80 stores.Rob shares the wild ride: running a steakhouse kitchen as a teenager, getting recruited by Chipotle to fix troubled locations, learning the business side under industry giants, and joining CAVA before it was a household name — building systems, opening markets, and helping scale a brand that eventually went public.Then the pandemic hit. Consulting work vanished. His son was bored. So Rob turned a homeschool project into something much bigger: a business plan for a scratch-made, allergen-conscious chicken concept. When it came time to name it, Rob's son delivered the winner: Isaac's — inspired by Isaac Newton, who invented calculus and discovered gravity while quarantined during the plague. “He changed the world in quarantine,” his son said. “You created a restaurant. Name it Isaac's.”Today, Isaac's Poultry Market has two booming locations, a cult following, and the DNA of a future fast-casual standout. Rob's story is momentum, grit, and timing — the kind Retail Retold was made for.What You'll Hear:How Rob went from washing dishes at 15 to helping scale CAVA into an 80-unit national powerhouseThe pivotal career moves — and mentors — that shaped his operator mindsetWhy he left CAVA at its peak and walked straight into entrepreneurshipThe pandemic moment that sparked Isaac's Poultry Market (and how his son named it)What it really takes to open a restaurant during supply-chain chaos and skyrocketing construction costsHow Rob chose his first two locations — and the real-world negotiation battles behind themWhy exclusives matter, how fast-casual operators think about competition, and the markets he's targeting nextThe scratch-made, allergen-friendly philosophy behind Isaac's menuAnd the big question: Is Isaac's positioned to become the next major fast-casual brand?Chapters00:00 — From Dish Pit to DriveHow a 15-year-old dishwasher discovered his path — and his ambition — in the restaurant world.02:00 — Learning the Business Beyond the KitchenThe mentors and moments that pushed Rob from chef to full-scale operator.04:45 — Chipotle, CAVA, and Fixing What's BrokenRob's early role in stabilizing stores and helping build CAVA's operational backbone from day zero.06:30 — Building a Rocketship BrandCross-country construction sprints, tiny founding teams, and opening stores at breakneck speed.09:00 — The Decision to Walk AwayWhy Rob left CAVA at its peak and refused to transition into an office role.13:00 — Pandemic Curveball → Entrepreneurial BreakthroughHow a business-plan lesson with his son turned into the foundation for Isaac's Poultry Market.14:00 — Naming Isaac's: A Quarantine Stroke of GeniusThe Isaac Newton inspiration that became a bold, meaningful brand name.17:00 — Building Location #1 in a Broken Supply ChainConstruction chaos, blown budgets, and the reality of opening a restaurant during COVID.22:00 — The Battle for Location #2Inside the seven-month negotiation to secure exclusives and protect the emerging brand.29:00 — The Future of Isaac's Poultry MarketHow Rob is approaching growth, second-gen spaces, and...

Indie comic creators often create new projects that are far and away from previous endeavors. Some creators believe that having many different projects can lead to more opportunities. On this edition of The PVDcast, I am joined by Frank James Bailey. He is the creator of the family-friendly superhero comic, Tercona. Frank is trying something new with his latest project. A horror novel called Azreal: The Story of Steve James is Frank's newest offering. Get details on why Frank decided to pen a horror novel. You'll also hear about Frank's creative process for Azreal, along with inspiration that helped him write this tale. We will also talk about his other projects, including Tercona.

This week's Business Nugget is a behind-the-scenes look at what it actually feels like to build something new — in my case, a course for The House of Sugar Creek — while still juggling everything else. I'm walking you through the real checklist (not just the cute one), the overwhelm that hits mid-way, and why "just recording some videos" turns into a full-blown tech stack spiral. If you're in the thick of it too, this one's for you — a gentle reminder that slow progress is still progress, even when it's not shiny yet.
