Ever notice how the second a camera turns on, you turn into a slightly robotic, over-performed version of yourself? You're not broken, you're just human, and this week's guest has spent her career helping people work on exactly that.I'm joined by Helen von Dadelszen, communication and vocal coach, speaker and author of Courageous Action, to talk about something that's been all over my feed lately: AI slop, sounding the same online, and what it actually takes to bring the human back into your content. We get into stage fright, why polish isn't the goal, and the practical tools Helen uses to help brilliant people communicate like themselves.If you LOVED this episode, make sure you share this on your Instagram stories and tag us @contentqueenmariah and @present_potential.⁠⁠⁠LEARN THE DETAILS OF A CONTENT STRATEGY WITH MY FREE AUDIO GUIDE⁠⁠⁠KEY EPISODE TAKEAWAYS

Almost Who I Am Pastor Cogan Download Matthew 21:23-32When he entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching and said, “By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?” Jesus said to them, “I will also ask you one question; if you tell me the answer, then I will also tell you by what authority I do these things. Did the baptism of John come from heaven, or was it of human origin?” And they argued with one another, “If we say, ‘From heaven,' he will say to us, ‘Why, then, did you not believe him?' But if we say, ‘Of human origin,' we are afraid of the crowd, for all regard John as a prophet.” So they answered Jesus, “We do not know.” And he said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.“What do you think? A man had two sons; he went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work in the vineyard today.' He answered, ‘I will not,' but later he changed his mind and went. The father went to the second and said the same, and he answered, ‘I go, sir,' but he did not go. Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you. For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him, and even after you saw it you did not change your minds and believe him. Back in February, one of my favorite artists, David Whimbish, released a song called Almost Who I Am. It's been on repeat in my car since. The chorus goes, “Well if you used to know me, I am sorry. I have not been myself for most of my life. Don't worry. You're not crazy. I'm almost who I am but still not quite.” (warning - if you have children there are a few choice words so perhaps the car ride home is not the best time to listen to it.)Sometimes there are lyrics that ring like gospel truth from the moment you hear them. Such was this song for me. If you used to know, I am sorry. I have not been myself for most of my life. If you knew a 10 year old Cogan, you would have known a talkative, husky (at least according to my pant size), boy who loved football and thought he'd never move away from home. At 16, you would have known a teen who longed to be popular and well liked, who held strong beliefs about folks who are queer, and believed racism was a thing of the past. At 22, all sorts of those beliefs had changed, for the better I believe. I got married, said I'd never have a dog, and, not yet having any kids of my own, was an expert on parenting. At 32, I stand before quite different than all of my previous selves, shaped by a past of bad decisions, wrong beliefs, and the harm I've done and had done to me. If you used to know me, I am sorry. I have not been myself for most of my life. And I have to believe I am not the only one who feels like that in this life; like you have never been quite the person you'd hoped you would be. Perhaps that is what Jesus is getting at in this deceptively simple parable about two brothers. A father tells his first son, go and work in the vineyard. The first son replied "No, I am not doing that” and later changed his mind. The father, not knowing that his first son would change his mind, goes to his second son and asks the same thing. The second son said, “yes, I'll go.” But he didn't. It is easy to hear this story as a simple choice between two options. You are either the second sons, which represents the religious leaders. They believed they were doing God's will in what they taught and how they lived. But then John the baptist and Jesus came and proclaimed something new, and they rejected it and them, and chose not to follow where God was leading. In other words,they knew how to say yes to God, but they never went into the vineyard. Others though, namely tax collectors and prostitutes, the worst sinners of the day, grabbed ahold of it with all they had. The invitation for us then seems simple: be like the first son. Repent! Don't just talk about faith; go work in the vineyard. But I don't believe this parable comes down to, “Which son will you be?” The hard truth is that we are both.We are the second son whenever our confession doesn't live up to our discipleship. We say yes to God all the time. We confess our sins, say we'll repent, and promise to love our neighbors. We talk about welcome and service, justice and forgiveness. We call ourselves Partners in Mission at Cross of Grace. That is a whole lot of yes to God. And inevitably, we don't always go into the vineyard. So let's not be too quick to judge the chief priests and elders. They aren't obvious villains. They are religious people who know how to say yes to God. Sound familiar?But thank God we are also the first son. We've said no in a thousand ways. We've been selfish. We've hurt others and ourselves. We've failed to become the parents, spouses, friends, Christian, and church we imagined ourselves becoming. There are things you believed, that we believed, twenty years ago that make us cringe now. Things we've said that we wish we would have swallowed. Things we've done that cannot be undone. “If you used to know me, I am sorry. I have not been myself for most of my life.” There is confession there. Grace does not take all that away. It happened. It was you.And yet, “afterward he changed his mind and went.” Just like the first son, our no was true, but it wasn't final. Our past happened, but it doesn't dictate our future. “Don't worry. You're not crazy. I'm almost who I am.” In other words, I am still becoming. The grace in the parable is that the first son's “no” didn't preclude him from working in the vineyard. The future was still open.And perhaps the same is true for the second son. Jesus says the tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom “ahead of you”; not instead of you. Their failure need not be final either. Grace is the promise that neither our first answers nor our failures are the final word. Rather God is always at work in us.Maybe you are sitting here as someone who has more life behind you than in front of you. You're thinking, “Pastor I am 86. My future is not open and it is too late to repair all my no's.” Sounding an awful lot like David Whimbish, Luther says, “This life therefore is not righteousness, but growth in righteousness; not health, but healing; not being, but becoming; We are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it. The process is not yet finished, but it is going on. This is not the end, but it is the road.”Our becoming isn't finished before death. The Christian promise isn't merely that you still have time to become a somewhat better version of yourself before you die. Rather, it is after this life, God will finish what grace has begun and we will be made new, complete; the person God intended for you to be. But in this life, you are almost who you are, but still not quite. And to me that is good news. Because like David Whimbish sings, I'm afraid that I am the mistake that I've made. I want to change, or really be changed. I want to be a different person than who I have been, than who I am today. Maybe that's true for you, too. Jesus tells me, tells us, that by the grace of God, our future is open. The problem is not that we have messed up in the past. The problem is believing your past must determine your future. This parable and its teaching isn't about being the religious leaders or the sinners, the second son or the first. It's announcing the terrifying and wonderful reality that God is still at work in us. We are not yet who we will be. Sometimes we can see it happening. A no becomes a yes. We meet people who change us. The tight grip on a conviction we held so tight begins to loosen. We apologize. We forgive. We finally walk into the vineyard. And sometimes the work remains painfully unfinished. There are noes we will never have time to repair and wounds we cannot heal. But even then, God is not finished. Death does not close the future God has opened. In the resurrection we will finally become who God has been making us to be all along. In this life, though, I'm almost who I am, but never quite. Amen.

Are you a gospel trumpet? That is the dominant image which Spurgeon employs for his sermon from 1 Thessalonians 1:8 about sounding forth the word of the Lord. The sermon builds to some applications which are very specific to the Metropolitan Tabernacle in Spurgeon's time, and we need to take that into account as we reach them. However, they can easily be turned to help us in our own situations, and the principles which lie behind them are broadly true. So, we are urged to consider the trumpeters themselves, the kind of men who make God's word to sound out, with Spurgeon ranging across Paul's description of the Thessalonian believers in his letters to them. This is really a brief study in Christian character. Then we turn to the trumpets, and see how it is that they give forth such a penetrating sound, and here we are in the realm of Christian experience and obedience. Thirdly, Spurgeon insists that there was a pressing present need for just such a trumpet-blast as sounded from the Thessalonian believers, and here the flavour of the hour begins to bleed through, but in a way that I think makes the modern reader add his, “Amen!” to the preacher's assessment. Finally comes the question of whether or not his immediate congregation had an obligation to sound forth that trumpet-note. While some of the qualities and opportunities Spurgeon identifies are very tightly tied to the Tabernacle gathering, they raise questions and challenges for every church and each believer as to how we respond to the need of the present hour.

This week's episode of Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast interviews, Kristi Mitchell. Your AI content is well written. That is the problem.You typed in the topic. You read it back. It sounded good, professional even, so you posted it.Then nothing happened.Here is what nobody tells you. Well written was never the goal. Sounding like you was the goal, and those two things are not the same.I get compliments on my podcast all the time and they are never about how polished it is. People tell me it sounds like they walked into a room and got to overhear two people talking. We talk over each other. I fumble my words. That is the compliment.Kristi Mitchell said something on this week's episode that I keep coming back to. You are the expert and you need to stay the expert. The AI tool is only there for the execution.Which means the order matters. Your voice and your experience come first, then the tool turns it into the post.Most people are doing it the other way around. They ask the tool to be the thought leader, then wonder why the content sounds like everybody else in their industry.You already have the good stuff.

“Let me think about it” has probably launched more awkward follow-up emails than any other sentence in sales. You leave the call not even knowing where to go after that because there wasn't an obvious objection to work through. How do you follow up with that - ask them what they need to think about? How long do they need? Neither.  The answer is to get curious - yes - but in a different, more specific way.  People rarely arrive at hesitation out of nowhere. There's usually something underneath it: a question they haven't asked, a concern they haven't named, a detail that still feels fuzzy, or a very legitimate reason that moving forward today would be the wrong decision. And yes, sometimes that reason is absolutely valid. You don't know until you do some digging though.  In this episode of Sales Is Not a Dirty Word, I'm pulling apart what can actually be happening when a promising sales conversation ends in “let me think about it” and where you should start looking when you hear it.    Listen in to discover: What signals to spot when a prospect hesitates at the end of a conversation The questions buyers can have without quite knowing how to articulate them Why curiosity gets you further with an objection than trying to convince or overcome How to discern when hesitation deserves more conversation and when someone genuinely needs more time If you've ever experienced the paralyzing uncertainty that can happen in the face of this nebulous objection - listen to the full episode before you send another “just checking in” follow-up.   Curious why your own sales conversations are converting less than 50%?

Follow up does not annoy prospects. Bad follow up does. In this episode Ray digs into why "just checking in" is the laziest, most ineffective message you can send, and gives you the two word mindset shift that fixes it for good: be busy. Ray explains that if you are not actually busy living a full life, building your business, spending time with your kids, growing in your faith, then it is time to get busy, because your schedule is dictating the speed of your success. Ray shares his tried and true script for reconnecting with someone you have not talked to in a long time, along with his three step follow up for cold market prospects who have gone quiet, a method he has personally taught for over a decade that gets over half of ghosters to respond. He also gives you his favorite line for warm market, friends and family who leave you on read, and explains exactly why it works almost every time. Most importantly, Ray reminds you that a response is not the goal. Moving someone closer to solving their problem is the goal, and that starts with knowing what that problem actually is better than you know your own product.

Why mature voices continue to have opportunities in voiceover. 13:34 — Understanding Gravitas Why gravitas isn't simply about having a deep or low voice. 16:23 — Finding Your Voiceover Niche How your professional experience can help you identify the right markets. 21:45 — Authenticity and Demographic Reads Why sounding younger doesn't necessarily mean understanding a younger audience. 24:50 — The Value of Longevity How staying in the business can build experience, credibility, and resilience. 27:45 — Staying Relevant as a Voice Actor Why continuing to learn and evolve is essential to a long-term career. 29:35 — Resilience and the Human Side of Voiceover A powerful conversation about purpose, resilience, and connection.     Top 10 Lessons From This Episode 1. Your previous career can help your voiceover career. Professional experience gives you knowledge and context that can make certain performances more authentic. 2. Age can be an advantage. Life experience gives you more emotional and storytelling reference points. 3. Nuance matters. Small changes in thought, reaction, timing, and emotion can make a performance more believable. 4. Gravitas isn't about pitch. Credibility comes from knowledge, authority, experience, and connection with the audience. 5. Authenticity matters. Sounding like a particular demographic isn't necessarily the same as understanding that demographic. 6. Find your strengths. You don't need to be the right voice for every type of project. 7. Your experience can help you find a niche. Previous careers and industries can point you toward voiceover markets where you already have valuable knowledge. 8. Longevity matters. Staying in the business through challenges and changes builds experience and resilience. 9. Keep learning. Experience only remains valuable when you're willing to continue evolving. 10. Voiceover is about connection. Your voice is important, but your ability to tell a believable story and connect with a listener is what ultimately matters.

In this episode of Sex Reimagined, Leah Piper and Dr. Willow Brown break down the real truth behind vaginal wetness, arousal signals, and why lubrication isn't the only factor  with how turned on you actually are. They dig into why making noise during sex unlocks deeper arousal, the difference between Taoist and Tantric approaches to sounding, why lube should be a staple and never a source of shame, what happens once you experience female ejaculation, how to navigate period sex with confidence, and how to have a compassionate conversation with a partner about hygiene without triggering shame. This one is packed with practical, body-literate tools for anyone who has ever felt self-conscious about wetness, smell, sound, or fluids during sex.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTSWetness and arousal don't always match. Cervical fluid, cycle timing, and hormones can make you wet or dry independent of how turned on you feel.Sounding isn't performance, it's a shortcut to pleasure. Making noise from the top of your inhale to the bottom of your exhale moves energy and gets you out of your head.Female ejaculation strips away viscous fluid. Ejaculators often need more lube afterward, not less.Lube is a tool, not a confession. Reaching for it has nothing to do with how attracted you are to your partner.Period sex has ancient roots as ritual and healing, not just something to tolerate or avoid.Hygiene conversations go better with curiosity and a "we can do better here" frame instead of blame.LINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE CAN BE FOUND ON THE WEBSITE: https://www.sexreimagined.com/blog/too-wet-not-wet-enough Sexual Reflexology Online Masterclass - Join us September 2nd at 4pm Pacific / 7pm Eastern for a live masterclass on zoom.

Scripts can help you prepare for a presentation, sales conversation, negotiation, or difficult conversation. But when you become too dependent on getting every word right, you can lose the one thing that matters most: connection.In this solo episode of Time to Reset Penny Zenker explores how to prepare for important conversations without sounding rehearsed or losing your ability to listen and respond in the moment.Penny breaks down why scripts should be used as a framework rather than something you have to follow word for word, how over-preparing can interfere with authentic communication, and why presence matters in leadership, sales, presentations, and difficult conversations.She also shares how to use AI as a role-play partner to practice conversations, anticipate objections, switch perspectives, and test how your message might be received before a high-stakes interaction.In this episode, you'll learn:How to prepare for difficult conversations without sounding scriptedWhy relying too heavily on a script can hurt connectionHow to stay present and listen during high-stakes conversationsHow leaders can prepare for objections and unexpected responsesHow to use AI to role-play conversations and improve communicationWhy your objective matters more than finding the perfect wordsPreparation gives you confidence. Presence gives you connection. The reset is knowing when you've prepared enough to let go of the script and engage with the person in front of you.Love the show?

Think about what happened inThessalonica. Paul had not been there very long. According to Acts 17, tremendousopposition arose against him and his companions. Paul eventually had to leavethe city. You might have thought that once Paul left, the Gospel witness wouldbecome silent. But it didn't! Paul left Thessalonica, but the Word of Godstayed there. And those new believers began sounding it out everywhere theywent. Paul says it sounded out “not only in Macedonia and Achaia.” As wesaid yesterday, Macedonia was the northern region of Greece where Thessalonicawas located. Achaia was the southern region where cities such as Athens andCorinth were located. But Paul goes even further. He says, “but also inevery place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad.” Their testimony hadtraveled far beyond their own city. People were talking about what God had donein Thessalonica! That reminds us that a genuinework of God cannot easily be hidden. When Jesus Christ truly changes a life,somebody is going to notice. And when a church is filled with believers whoselives have been transformed by the Gospel, its influence should extend farbeyond the walls of its building. My friend, the church was never intended tobe simply a place where we come together once or twice a week to hear the Wordof God. We gather to hear the Word, but then we scatter to sound out the Word. Wetake it into our homes. We take it into our neighborhoods. We take it into ourworkplaces. We take it into our communities. And wherever God gives us anopportunity, we share the wonderful message that Jesus Christ saves. Notice something else. Pauldoes not simply say that their words were spreading. He says, “your faith toGod-ward is spread abroad.” Their message was supported by their lives. Peoplewere not only hearing what these Christians said; they were seeing what theseChristians believed by the way they lived. That is one of the greatestchallenges for us today. Our lives should give credibility to our message. Ifwe tell people that Jesus changes lives, there should be evidence that Jesushas changed our life. If we tell people that Jesus gives peace, they should seeHis peace in us. If we tell people that Jesus teaches us to love, they shouldexperience His love through us. If we tell people that Jesus gives hope, theyshould see hope in the way we face the difficulties of life. Remember what Paulsaid back in verse 3: their work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hopewere visible. Now their testimony was sounding out everywhere. And then Paul makes an amazingstatement at the end of verse 8: “So that we need not to speak anything.” Paulwas basically saying, “When we arrive somewhere and begin telling people aboutwhat happened in Thessalonica, they already know!” Can you imagine having thatkind of testimony? Paul didn't need to advertise the church at Thessalonica.Their transformed lives were advertising the power of the Gospel. That causesme to ask myself a question today: What kind of sound is coming from my life? Allof us are sounding out something. Our attitudes sound out something. Our wordssound out something. Our reactions to difficulties sound out something. The waywe treat people sounds out something. Our priorities sound out something. Thequestion is: Are we sounding out the Word of the Lord? Over the years, I have oftenreminded people that you don't have to be a preacher or missionary to be awitness for Jesus Christ. You simply need to be willing to tell someone whatJesus has done for you. And today we have opportunities that the Thessalonianscould never have imagined. Through a telephone, a text message, an email, asocial media post, a conversation with a neighbor, or a simple word ofencouragement, the Word of the Lord can sound out from our lives to people nearand far.

We asked for your questions, and you sent so many that one episode couldn't hold them. This is part one of two — and part one is brought to you by two letters: A and I. That wasn't the plan; it's just where the mailbag pointed. Philip Rothman and David MacDonald take on the growing expectation that artificial intelligence should be able to turn a scan, recording, or generated track into finished, usable sheet music. Why is that still so difficult? And where can AI genuinely help musicians and music preparation professionals today? The discussion ranges from optical music recognition and audio transcription to proofreading, house styles, sample libraries, score following, and the potential for language models to communicate directly with notation software. Along the way, Philip proposes the “Gould test” as the music preparation equivalent of the Turing test. Underneath it all are larger questions about the value of expertise, the role of human judgment, and where responsibility lies when the technology gets it wrong. The rest of the mailbag — the questions that have nothing to do with AI — is coming next month.

Most businesses treat referrals as something that happens to them. The ones that grow consistently treat referrals as something they build. In this episode, we break down a few specific things that have to be true about your referral system for it to generate consistently, from identifying your most connected clients to giving the people in your network the language to describe you clearly in casual conversation. If your referral flow feels unpredictable, this episode will show you exactly what to build.

The Yankees are suddenly spiraling, and Shaun Morash is no longer trying to talk himself out of panic. After a historically bad offensive stretch, fresh injury concerns, and a brutal showing against Detroit, the frustration around this team has reached a new level. Shaun digs into the warning signs that make this feel bigger than a typical slump, from Cam Schlittler looking human to the uncertainty around Aaron Judge's return. With the trade deadline approaching, he questions whether the Yankees can afford to wait for injured stars or if the front office needs to act before the season slips away.
