    Raghunath and Kaustubha reflect on the concern many devotees are feeling after the recent GBC meetings in Māyāpur, where the question of women serving as initiating gurus was met with an indefinite moratorium and a call for further study. Speaking candidly, but with care, they resist the internet's favorite pastime: demonizing the "other side." Instead, they explore the issue with a steady Bhāgavatam lens — examining guru-tattva, scriptural reasoning, and a central tension within spiritual culture: Do bodily designations override bhakti qualifications? For those who have felt unsettled, conflicted, or simply fatigued by the online crossfire, this episode offers grounding — rooted in śāstra, guided by thoughtful reasoning, and framed by a practical caution. A stabilizing conversation for a sensitive moment in the devotional community. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

    This week, we tip our hats to the trailblazing all (or mostly) girl bands of alternative rock. Speaking of the trailblazers, today's ceremonial Third Lad certainly is one. As a musician and songwriter, Genny Schorr (aka Genny Body) was a member of one of the first mostly female punk bands in LA, Backstage Pass, along with past O3L guest Marina Muhlfriedel (aka Marina Del Rey), Joanna Spock Dean, and Holly Beth Vincent, later of Holly & The Italians (of “Tell That Girl To Shut Up” fame).  They were critical in the launch of legendary LA punk club The Masque.  They landed a track on Rhino Records' seminal LA punk comp, Saturday Night Pogo.  They played with, and their story intertwines with, a jaw-dropping list of punk, new wave, and rock heroes.  After Backstage Pass, she was invited to be in the Go-Go's.  She owned the influential rock n' roll clothing boutique Strait Jacket with Stiff Records' impresario Jake Rivera, which launched a long career as a wardrobe designer and stylist to the stars.  Many of those stylish videos, album covers, and magazine shoots you love from the ‘80s?  Genny had a hand in sculpting the look.  She lived with and toured with Linda Ronstadt as her personal wardrobe stylist as the singer transformed her image from new wave darling on the Get Closer tour to sophisticated starlet stepping in front of Nelson Riddle's big band.  She styled and toured with the Bangles at their peak.  But ultimately, All Roads Lead to Punk - which just happens to be the title of Genny Schorr's incredible new memoir of sex, drugs, rock n' roll and fashion fromHoZac Books.  It's not only a fantastic page-turner, but the photos and ephemera make it an indispensable time capsule of the era.  If you think the stories Genny shares on O3L are incredible...just wait til you read the book!

    Welcome to another episode of Fratello On Air. This week, we hop into our time machine and travel back 10 years to 2016. As we'll see, in some ways, this wasn't so long ago. Yet, in others, it was a different lifetime. Join us as we look back on fonder days.HandgelenkskontrolleIt's been a while since we've recorded, and much of this is down to Mike's travels in Germany. Sadly, on one of the trips, he had a very Balazs-like travel experience involving planes and trains. If he did have a time machine, he'd probably go back and choose to sleep through his alarm that day. We mention an upcoming Sotheby's auction featuring a pair of Michael Jordan's shoes from the Dream Team Barcelona Olympics. Balazs discusses the return of The Night Manager, a show that, coincidentally, has returned after its first season in 2016! For the Handgelenkskontrolle, Balazs is wearing an upcoming release, the Nivada Grenchen F77 MKII. Mike was wearing his Rolex Sea-Dweller 1665 "Great White" in Germany and still has it on his wrist.Taking our time machine back to 2016Yes, it's hard to believe that 2016 was 10 years ago! Time flies! In this episode, we're reminiscing about a year that brought some interesting releases and behavior. Specifically, vintage watches were within a boom period. In particular, a Patek Philippe 1518 sold at Phillips for over CHF 11 million! It was hard for us to believe that watches were achieving these sums a decade ago.Many new watches from back then still feel relatively modern, but there's no doubt that larger diameters and chunkier cases were in vogue. The Blancpain Bathyscaphe Blue and Ceramic is a good example of this, but to be fair, the same basic platform is still in the catalog today. Speaking of big and robust watches, Robert-Jan reviewed the Sinn U212, which still looks fresh. If we truly want to feel old, Tudor was already in its second year of offering non-ETA movements. Omega launched a rare box-office stinker with the blue and white CK2998, a piece that has aged quite well.Our time machine continues its journey and finds the wild Hublot Big Bang Berluti, which was available in gold or steel and showed off a leather dial. Seiko, announced a partnership with PADI. This caused a stir, and several of us on the team grabbed one of the new models. TAG Heuer announced a Monza PVD, a retro chronograph with a thick case. However, we save the most significant announcement for last. Rolex, after producing steel Daytona 116500LN models with a steel bezel for over 25 years, introduced pieces with ceramic bezels. Understandably, the excitement was palpable and hit Basel like a hurricane. We remark that these watches have been unavailable since that time!We hope you enjoy today's episode. Share your watch memories from 2016 in the comments below, and let us know if we forgot any momentous pieces.

From big climbs and sudden drops, there are moments where you wonder why you got on the ride in the first place. Matt Heller, Founder of Performance Optimist Consulting helps leaders and teams stay focused and performing at their best.

Speaking at conferences can feel intimidating, especially when you are trying to balance confidence, content, and stage presence all at once. To ease the nerves, it's helpful to break it down into practical habits that make presenting feel more natural and more effective, from how you build your material to how you connect with the room in real time. In this episode, Matt and Josh talk about professional and public speaking tips for conferences and presentations. Start with the story, not the slides “Build your presentation in your head before you build your slide deck.” Josh explains that the clearest presentations start as a full talk you can deliver without visuals. When you lead with the message first, the slides become supporting cues instead of a script. That approach helps you avoid “death by PowerPoint” and keeps you in control of pacing, transitions, and energy. Edit for focus and learning goals “It's editing in your mind that really needs to be in that presentation.” Matt emphasizes that a great presentation is often a smaller, sharper version of your first draft. Whether it is cutting extra content, trimming stories, or removing activities that do not connect back to the point, editing keeps the session aligned to what the audience is there to learn. They also highlight how conference submission learning goals can force useful clarity. Prepare and rehearse without sounding robotic “Prepare, prepare, rehearse, rehearse, but don't memorize.” Matt shares a rehearsal process that builds comfort through repetition while still leaving room to adapt in the moment. Josh adds that this flexibility improves the dynamic with the audience because you are not thrown off by a question or an unexpected turn. Make it a conversation with the room “I want this to be an interchange. I want this to be a conversation.” Both hosts push back on the idea of “giving a talk” as a one-way download of information. Josh advocates getting the audience talking early and often, which creates rhythm, raises energy, and removes the invisible barrier between stage and seats. Matt adds that it sets expectations that attendees will participate, not just sit back and watch. Use nerves as fuel and build confidence over time “Use your nervousness to your advantage.” Matt frames nervousness as energy you can harness, not a sign you are unqualified. One tactic he uses is talking to attendees as they enter so the session feels like it has already started. Josh reinforces that reps create confidence, and confidence becomes contagious once you step up to present. Create memorable a-ha moments and stay authentic “Stack as many a-ha moments as possible.” Josh explains how “spiky” anchor statements, supported by research and relatable examples, can spark light bulb moments that stick after the session ends. Matt adds that your style does not have to be high energy to be powerful. The goal is authenticity, whether you are animated or quiet and steady, and using humor only when it fits who you are. Keep it simple, plan for hiccups, and stay steady “Keep it simple and also have a backup plan.” Matt warns against overcomplicated decks and tech-heavy presentations that can fail in unfamiliar setups. Josh agrees and adds that problems will happen, from clickers to microphones, and the best move is to stay calm, adapt, and keep the room with you.   What are the best speaking lessons that have helped you feel more confident on stage?

    Send a textRaise your hand if the last couple of weeks have felt… heavy.Not just busy. Not just frustrating.Heavy.As more information comes out about the Epstein files and the physicians connected to them, many of us are noticing something uncomfortable stirring beneath the surface. And today, we're naming it.Vicarious shame.Not guilt. Not embarrassment. Not even anger—though that may be there too.Shame.And here's the important distinction:Guilt says: I did something bad.Shame says: I am bad.Vicarious shame is when we feel shame on behalf of someone else and their actions.You haven't done anything wrong.And yet you may feel the weight of it.Because we are physicians.Because we identify deeply with our profession.Because we carry responsibility seriously.Because we are highly empathic women who have been socialized to hold things together.And medicine? Medicine has trained us in shame.We trained in environments where missteps equaled inadequacy.Where not knowing something meant being exposed.Where performance and worth blurred into one.So when we see male physicians—powerful, wealthy, prominent—implicated in abuses of power, something hits close to home. Not because we are like them. But because we share the title.And if you've noticed:A heaviness in your chestA compulsive urge to scroll and read moreA sense of disgust that somehow turns inwardA quiet questioning of the professionYou are not alone.But here is what we will not do:We will not carry their shame.They deserve to experience shame for their actions. Shame is an appropriate human response to wrongdoing. If they do not feel it, that is their pathology—not your burden.We do not atone for abuses we did not commit.We do not hold shame for the profession.We do not absorb the moral weight of other people's misconduct.What do we do instead?1️⃣ We name it.Naming vicarious shame immediately loosens its grip. When you say, “Oh. That's what this is,” your nervous system settles.2️⃣ We speak it.Shame thrives in silence. When we talk about what we're feeling—with trusted colleagues, friends, or within supportive spaces—we metabolize it.3️⃣ We give it back.There are practices for this. Writing a letter and burning it. Speaking aloud that you are releasing what isn't yours. Sitting in witness with another human and choosing to let it go.You are allowed to release shame that does not belong to you.4️⃣ We practice critical awareness.You may notice how quickly you internalize responsibility. How readily you identify with the profession. How often you hustle to represent medicine “well.”You are not the bad actor.You provide care.You carry responsibility with integrity.You have not abused your privilege.We will not confuse ourselves with them.This is heavy work.

    Irish critical infrastructure specialist, Turnua, has announced a new partnership with Future Academy to launch the Turnua Future Academy, a digital skills and innovation hub focused on developing AI and digital skills for enterprises and students alike. Based at Turnua's Critical Infrastructure Hub in Naas, County Kildare, the partnership is designed to give students and professionals practical experience in digital, AI, and innovation skills within a real-world infrastructure environment. The Turnua Future Academy is Turnua's innovation and capability hub, connecting students, small businesses, and large enterprises with future skills through real-world building rather than classroom learning. Delivered within Turnua's purpose-built Critical Infrastructure Hub, the project will support a range of programmes focused on practical learning and real-world application. These include hands-on innovation camps for Transition Year students as well as digital and AI workshops and readiness diagnostics for enterprises. This blended approach is designed to strengthen links between education, industry, and community, while ensuring learning remains grounded in current and emerging technology needs. For SMEs and enterprise teams, the Turnua Future Academy will deliver practical AI and digital build workshops designed to help organisations adopt modern technologies with confidence. These sessions focus on developing real outputs, such as digital tools, automations, and AI-powered solutions, created during guided, hands-on workshops. This is complemented by a Digital and AI Readiness Diagnostic, which supports business leaders in understanding digital maturity, identifying capability gaps, and developing a clear, actionable roadmap aligned to organisational goals. The Transition Year (TY) Innovation Build Camps will place students inside the type of environment where modern digital systems, AI workloads, and infrastructure are designed and operated. Working in teams, students will have the ability to share ideas, identify opportunities, build prototypes, and pitch their final concepts to community partners with the goal of developing confidence and practical capabilities. The TY programme is supported by engagement with businesses, who provide real-world challenges and act as project sponsors. A recent report from Microsoft and Trinity College Dublin estimates that AI adoption could add €250 billion to Ireland's GDP by 2035. However, the same report also highlighted a lack of expertise and uncertainty around structured deployment as key barriers to AI adoption in Ireland. Meanwhile, the Department of Enterprise, Trade, and Employment has set an ambition for 75 percent of all businesses in Ireland to be using AI, cloud, and big data by 2030. The collaboration between Turnua and Future Academy will help address the country's AI skills shortages and better equip the Irish workforce, from students to seasoned professionals. Speaking about the partnership, David Cox, Founder and Managing Director of Turnua, said: "We are very excited to launch this programme in partnership with Future Academy. I am personally passionate about equipping younger generations to better navigate the digital landscape aligned with the future of work. The Turnua Future Academy brings us one step closer to bridging the digital skills gap in a modern Irish workforce." Jenny Melia, CEO, Enterprise Ireland, added: "Enterprise Ireland is committed to supporting Ireland's homegrown entrepreneurs to succeed in global markets, and this includes a focus on boosting productivity and embracing the true potential of digital tools like AI. Turnua's partnership with Future Academy is a fantastic example of how Irish companies are proactively addressing digital skills needs by providing a hands-on environment for AI and digital transformation at their Naas hub.

Bo was so impressed he offered to cover the upcoming Craig Conover 10K race from a news van. Speaking of the 10K, we review some diabolical listener suggestions for the loser's punishment—from taking the SATs to running from Deputy Dog Radar in a bite suit.Then we dive into a massive Winter Olympics recap. We review the Milan Opening Ceremony and passionately defend Lindsey Vonn from the haters after her devastating crash. We also celebrate our official "Swiffer Curling" manifestation coming true for Chris Plys, debate whether the Snoop Dogg commentary gimmick is getting tired (should Elmo or Gordon Ramsay replace him?), and praise Team USA's tailored outfits alongside Mongolia's effortlessly "dripped out" uniforms. We also uncover the most insane sports cheating scandal of the year: male ski jumpers injecting their private parts with hyaluronic acid to increase their suit's aerodynamic airtime.In other sports news, we celebrate Ricky Stenhouse Jr.'s iconic Chef Boyardee NASCAR wrap and merch drop, while Erin spirals over an offer to caddy at a professional PGA tour event, fearing a sweaty, club dropping disaster.Finally, we time travel to recap a mostly boring Super Bowl. We complain about the endless pharmaceutical and crypto ads, but applaud 50 Cent's incredibly petty DoorDash commercial taking shots at Diddy.

    When you're trying to grow your property management business, perfection can feel like the standard… but what if chasing "perfect" is actually what's slowing you down?  In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, property management growth experts Jason and Sarah Hull unpack the hidden cost of perfectionism in business. They break down why striving for 100% accuracy in tools, systems, or team members leads to frustration, stalled growth, and constant "shiny object" switching. You'll learn how to evaluate mistakes the right way, when to keep a system versus scrap it, and why imperfect action often scales faster than polished hesitation.  They also dive into the six core functions of a healthy business, the danger of over-optimizing the wrong areas, and how to free up your time so you can focus on what actually moves the needle.   You'll Learn (00:00) Introduction to DoorGrow and Perfectionism  (05:24) Optimizing Business Processes Without Perfection  (11:07) Scaling Beyond Personal Limitations Quotables "Perfect businesses are out of business."  "There is nothing in this world that is going to get 100% accuracy 100% of the time."  "Perfectionism is usually born out of an insecurity and discomfort in ourself and we have to get comfortable with things not being perfect in order to scale a business." Resources DoorGrow and Scale Mastermind DoorGrow Academy DoorGrow on YouTube DoorGrowClub DoorGrowLive Transcript Jason Hull (00:01) All right, five, four, three, two, one. We are Jason and Sarah Hull, the owners of DoorGrow, the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs. For over a decade and a half, we have brought innovative strategies and optimization to the property management industry. At DoorGrow, we are on a mission to transform property management business owners and their businesses. We want to transform the industry.   eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market, and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. Now let's get into the show. All right. So what are we chatting about today, Sarah? Perfection. Perfection. So this is a big challenge in business is that especially for early stage entrepreneurs, they want everything to be perfect. They judge, we judge ourselves so harshly. We're so worried.   We have imposter syndrome and where we feel like people are gonna figure out that we don't know everything and that we may not know something they know. There's all these early stage entrepreneur concerns that a lot of people go through. so they have this fear that I need to make sure everything is perfect. And perfectionism can cause some serious problems. And this is a temptation, I think, for most every entrepreneur that I've ever coached or dealt with.   to some degree. So let's talk about this. All So the issue that had come up was just last week on a coaching call with a client and she was saying that, you know, hey, I have this tool that does a specific job and it's pretty good, but it's not 100%. Okay. And it was, she was frustrated that it wasn't 100 % perfect. All right. Right.   And she said, because it's not like sometimes it will miss little things or I think it called a client or a tenant called a tenant by the wrong name. Right. So it might miss little things here and there. she said, you know, I I'm not doing it, but I'm having my team member just kind of watch over things.   And so she said, and I'm looking for an alternative because I just don't feel like that's going to be the solution. It's just not where I want it to be yet. So I said, I totally understand where you're coming from with it. ⁓ My bet, my best advice on it is not to try to strive for perfection because truthfully, it really doesn't matter what it is. It doesn't matter if it's a tool.   a system, a process, a software, a team member, or ourselves that's doing a particular thing, there is nothing on this world that is going to get 100 % accuracy 100 % of the time. So if that's what we're striving for, we're going to be let down at some point, and we're going to consistently feel frustrated. And then we're to jump from thing to thing or person to person looking.   for this magic solution that does 100 % all the time. And it's just, it's not possible. If you ask yourself, have I ever made a Sure. Who hasn't? What technology hasn't messed up from time to time? What computer hasn't messed up from time to time? What even AI sometimes you'll ask it a question and it gives you answers that you know are not correct. And then you have to correct it. And then it goes, I'm so sorry. You're right.   Here's now the correct information. first time it gave you incorrect information. Right? So if we're striving for, no, this thing in order for me to use it has to be perfect all of the time, otherwise it's not worth it. And now I have to go look for something else. That puts us in this loop of consistently we'll forever be searching. will forever be searching for something to be perfect. My rule is if,   If you're using some sort of system, whether it's a tool or a software or AI, if it makes a mistake, and it will. So when it makes a mistake.   If the same thing was done by a human, would this be an immediately fireable offense? Yeah. If a human made the same mistake that the system or tool or AI did, would you go, I immediately have to fire this person? Most times the answer is no. And if the answer is no, then why would you be looking to immediately be getting rid of that tool or stop using that AI or stop using that software?   Right? So a lot of times what I've noticed is we have a lot of grace when it comes to humans and we have very little when it comes to technology, including AI. Yeah. We've almost none. We expect perfection all the time. You're a supercomputer. You should know everything all the time and never make a mistake. And that is fantastic in theory. But in practicality, it's   probably just not realistic, even if it is a supercomputer and it's infinitely more intelligent, even than we are, it's still going to make mistakes sometimes. So if a human made this mistake, if you would look at that and go, yes, I immediately need to fire this person, then you're probably on the right track by getting rid of that tool or system. But if a...   human made this same mistake and you would just chalk it up to, hey, they need more support or hey, they need more training or hey, you these things happen from time to time. It's not a great situation, but I'm not gonna fire them over it. Then I also don't feel like it's worth scrapping the tool for the same reason. Okay, yeah, I agree. So I think ⁓ perfectionism is a big challenge. So one of my mentors,   Alex Sharfin, shout out to Alex. said, he used to say perfect businesses are out of business. And I think one of his mentors told him that. So the idea is when you are trying to make your business perfect, you aren't focused on a lot of times the right things. ⁓ One of the books he recommended to me, a great book, it's called The Goal by Elihu Goldratt. And in this book, it talks about how if you optimize each thing in the business, the business actually becomes less efficient.   So he uses this story uses an example of like a factory and there's different stages in this process. Just like in any business, there's different stages. And if you over optimize one particular stage that leads into another, the challenge is it creates inventory or it creates like more work or it creates excess. And so everything needs to be moving in concert towards the goal. And anything that's not moving the entire business towards the main goal.   can actually become a distraction. So it's very easy for operators in business to over optimize a piece or to spend too much time on something or to put too much attention on making the perfect onboarding process or the perfect system. And it actually makes you less money. It like brings you less client retention. It brings you more headaches and more problems. It makes you need more staff. And so we have to be really careful about   optimizing or making everything perfect. Elon Musk talks about how one of the biggest mistakes made in business is optimizing for the wrong things. And so we need to make sure we're optimizing towards what the actual goals are. And a lot of times also clients get our clients that we coach, they get so focused on making sure their clients have such an amazing experience while neglecting the lead gen and the growth of their own business, which is the lifeblood. So it's like, I want to take care of everybody that   is paying me, but I don't really care about taking care of myself and my family, and paying myself is what it kind of plays out to be. And so this is why we look at things through the lens of what I call the six core functions. Lead gen, nurture, conversion, delivery, lifetime value, and financials. And so these are like six little kids you gotta take care of in the business. And a lot of business owners focus on one that is their favorite darling child.   and make sure that they're fat and happy, and then they have at least one or two that are starving in the corner that they're neglecting. They're like, And usually, lead gen is the one that's being neglected. find, and delivery, taking care of the client's experience, delivering the product is the fat one. And so this means you're being a bad steward in your own business. You're not making healthy decisions.   And here's the thing we teach when we have our clients rate these on a scale of one to five, five being best, each of these six children, these functions in the business, ⁓ it's impossible for all six to be a five at the same time. That's impossible. Perfection is impossible because if you ramp up lead gen and nurture and ⁓ conversion, sales are those three. Sales is ramping up.   Now you have constraints and now you need to hire more people, build out your team. And once you build out your team, you have more expenses, then you need more leads. It's a constant juggle of figuring out which one needs the attention right now. But you're always leveling up, it's impossible for them all to be perfect at the same time. Because it's always relative to your current progress. Like our versions of a five now are very different than my versions of a five in previous history. Like our ones now, nowadays, Indoor Grow,   when we rate things, I would have dreamed of having as, it would have been fives for me in the past in terms of how much money we make, leads, like, et cetera. And so, yeah, like early Jason entrepreneur wouldn't have even have dreamed of having a business as big as this is and being able to live the lifestyle that we live. And so, ⁓ that's important to take note of as well when looking at this that.   Perfectionism is usually born out of an insecurity and discomfort in ourself and we have to get comfortable with things not being perfect in order to scale a business.   Speaking of being able to scale the business, let's have a word from our sponsor. Yeah, let's share. Okay. So our sponsor today is Cover Pest. So Cover Pest, they are the easy and seamless way to add on-demand pest control to your resident benefit package. So residents love the simplicity of submitting a service request and how affordable it is compared to traditional pest control options. Investors love knowing that their property is kept pest free.   and property managers love getting their time back and making more revenue per door. Simply put, CoverPest is the easiest way to handle pest control issues at all of your properties. To learn more and to get special door grow pricing, visit coverpest.com slash door grow. Okay. That's our sponsor. All right. Thank you, CoverPest. So, yeah. So when it comes to perfectionism,   How do you get clients past that? What do usually tell them? So I have a rule that if there is some sort of software...   member that can do a particular thing so that I don't have to be the one who's doing it. If they can do it even, even like 60 or 70 percent as good as I can do it, ⁓ I'm going to make that trade every day of the week. Why? Because at some point if you're trying, if you're holding on to no I will never settle for 60 percent, that is unacceptable, then you very quickly will hit a limit to where you can scale.   and you will no longer be able to grow. Yeah, you hit a limit in your capacity because you only everybody has a limited of what we call the five currencies, time, energy, focus, cash and effort. That's what you have to invest. And your most important or valuable resource, I believe, is time. That's your life. Like you're going to die. And so you're giving away chunks of your life and.   You know, if you're going to give away chunks of your life, it might as well be towards things you actually enjoy doing in the business and not holding on to all these things you think you have to do because your ego says you're the best and nobody else can do it better. Let me tell you this. This is the humbling thing I learned is that if you don't love doing those particular things in the business, there is always somebody that can do it better than you. Because if you don't love doing it, somebody else would and they would easily surpass your level of expertise in that.   and your ability to perform in that and show up consistently well in that. And so you gotta find the people. Another thing early stage entrepreneurs don't understand that I didn't early on is they don't understand that there's somebody out there that loves doing everything that you hate doing. The big mistake we make in the beginning is we think we need to find a clone of ourselves. I just need to clone myself. I call it the clone myth. The reality is it takes about 10 or 12 people to clone you.   So just find, you just got to find specialists, experts, and they will be better at these things than you. And you can stick to the stuff you love. Cool. if they're not better at it than you are, if it can still be done well enough that you won't lose business over it, that is a trade that I would make every day of the week. So I might do something and have amazing results and someone else might duplicate. Let's just say sales. Let's say that I can close nine out of 10 deals.   but I really don't like doing sales. And I'm doing it because I have to do it because I want to grow the business, but I don't actually really enjoy doing it. And then I can find someone who I can have do this for me, but maybe they only close six or seven out of 10. Well, easy math will tell you, hey, I'm going to be closing less deals. That's not a good trade. But really it is because you're getting somebody who's doing a decent enough job.   so that you're not losing business, you're not costing yourself anything crazy, it's not like all of your clients are going to leave you. They're doing a decent enough job to continue to move the business forward, meanwhile you're able to stop doing that thing and then go focus on doing something else that you actually enjoy and very likely with that extra time you will be able to find   Ways to make more money that you did not have time for previously because your time was being eaten up By whatever thing that you can now replace with either a person AI or a tool So even if it's not perfect even if it's not going to do everything the way that you want it to all of the time And it's just not as good as me If you're going to hold on to that belief that it has to be as good as you otherwise it cannot be used   then it will hold you back in your business and you will very quickly hit a ceiling on the capacity of doors that you can enter. Okay, the one problem with that analogy is that most business owners, if they're doing the sales in their own business, they're only doing it part-time. They're not full-time. And so your part-time results might be the equivalent of their full-time results. And so you're not really giving up something if you get somebody full-time, they take that off your plate.   They might even surpass you because it's really hard to compete if you're only putting in an hour to a day to actually grow the business and you've got somebody doing it eight hours or six hours a day. They easily will eventually be beating you in terms of results, especially if you don't like it and they love it. So all right, cool. Well, that's our episode for today.

    Being the one who “has it handled” can look like strength from the outside, but it often comes with an invisible cost. In this episode of the Free to Be Mindful Podcast, Vanessa De Jesus Guzman explores why highly capable, high-functioning women - especially moms and leaders - can feel deeply alone despite being surrounded by people who rely on them.Through a therapist's lens, Vanessa unpacks how cultural conditioning, emotional labor, and the mental load many women carry quietly reduce support over time. This conversation is not about doing more or pushing harder. It is about understanding why support often disappears when you are seen as “the strong one,” and why learning to ask for help is essential for long-term well-being.EPISODE DESCRIPTIONWhy being highly capable can unintentionally lead to lonelinessHow cultural expectations and early responsibility shape over-functioningThe emotional labor and mental load others often do not seeWhy people stop checking in when you always seem “fine”How survival-based leadership shows up in motherhood and daily lifeWhy support is not a reward you earn after burnout, but a necessity before itTUNE IN TO LEARNHow capability becomes identity and limits supportThe difference between doing tasks and carrying responsibilityWhy asking for help feels uncomfortable for high-achieving womenHow to recognize exhaustion you may have normalizedPractical ways to invite support back in without guilt REFERENCED LINKSThe Reset Experience on February 22nd in Ridgefield, New Jerseyhttps://www.amigamoms.com/event-details/resetexperience-feb2026 Book Vanessa for Speakinghttps://www.freetobemindful.com/speaking TAKEAWAY MESSAGEBeing capable does not mean you have to carry everything alone.

Speaking to The Sun, Kuvin questioned Gates's moral judgment, asking, “Why are you taking business meetings with a person like that?” He emphasized that, given Gates's vast resources and investigative capacity, it is “incredibly hard to believe that he would not have known the full extent of the allegations” against Epstein, whose conviction involved sex crimes against minorsBeyond moral criticism, Kuvin urged Gates to cooperate with law enforcement investigating Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's close associate.

    Perfecting Faith Church with Pastor Donnie McClurkin

    Are you spiritually awake, or just going through the motions? Pastor James Wilson brings a sobering and timely message calling believers to rise from spiritual sleep and live with urgency as the day of salvation draws near. Speaking into a culture much like ancient Rome—morally loud yet spiritually empty—he reminds the church that holiness is not optional for the follower of Christ. Anchored in Romans 13:11–14 — "Now it is high time to awake out of sleep… put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh." The sermon calls believers to cast off darkness and intentionally clothe themselves with Christ. Through the transforming work of the Holy Spirit, we are not only forgiven but changed, conformed into His image. Pastor Wilson emphasizes sanctification, genuine repentance, and the rejection of worldly patterns. The message concludes with a heartfelt altar call inviting both salvation and rededication — a reminder that revival begins personally before it becomes corporate. Spiritual maturity starts the moment we stop excusing sin and start intentionally putting on Christ daily.

    Another weekend in the books. Windows were open. ALMOST got on the Harley yesterday. Still too much dirt & salt on the roads to take her out of the garage just yet. In the news this morning, former President Obama admitted on a recent podcast that aliens are real, a Wisconsin fisherman is going viral for using a porta-potty for an ice shanty, some guys in Prairie du Chien are playing their own version of Olympic curling, and the latest on the search for Nancy Guthrie. In sports, the Badgers upset #10 Michigan State on Saturday, the Bucks are off until Friday, the results of the All-Star weekend in the NBA, and Tyler Reddick won yesterday's Daytona 500! We let you know what's on TV today/tonight and we also talked about a possible reboot for "Charlie's Angels". Elsewhere in sports, Chris Paul retires, Kansas State fires their head coach, a college baseball player hit THREE grand slams in a single game, and a hockey team has to apologize after asking it's fans to shower before coming to home games. Speaking of the Olympics, we recapped some of this weekend's action in Italy, including an update on Lindsey Vonn, the US Medal count, the village is running out of condoms, the US men's hockey beatdown of Germany yesterday, and a Slovakian fugitive is arrested after he came out of hiding to attend a hockey game at the Olympics. A couple of cool stories including: a baby giraffe that was just born at the Kansas City zoo, a farmer in Idaho who donated millions of potatoes to local food banks, and a cashier at a Publix grocery store in Georgia who is everyone's favorite. Do you have a reusable water bottle? When was the last time you washed it? Might want to increase the amount of times you run it through the dishwasher! Today is "President's Day", so make sure you keep that in mind if you have errands to run later. Some stuff might not be open. We talked about the best & worst Presidents according to a new survey, and we had some other interesting stats & info on the holiday. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy who got arrested and claimed he was George Costanza, a billboard with a QR code for a free burrito is apparently distracting drivers, a guy who ran over a bunch of mailboxes, & a former police chief who is going to jail after he was found guilty of setting a bunch of fires.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Spencer Kuvin, an attorney representing multiple survivors of Jeffrey Epstein, publicly criticized Bill Gates for continuing to meet with Epstein even after the financier's conviction. Speaking to The Sun, Kuvin questioned Gates's moral judgment, asking, “Why are you taking business meetings with a person like that?” He emphasized that, given Gates's vast resources and investigative capacity, it is “incredibly hard to believe that he would not have known the full extent of the allegations” against Epstein, whose conviction involved sex crimes against minorsBeyond moral criticism, Kuvin urged Gates to cooperate with law enforcement investigating Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's close associate. He pointed out the ongoing nature of those investigations and suggested that Gates—by stepping forward—“should remind Gates and the world that… if Mr. Gates has information that could assist in that investigation, I would say he should step forward”To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comSource:https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/14946349/bill-gates-evidence-ghislaine-maxwell-investigators-jeffrey-epstein/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

    Speaking of Covenants (as we do this week), to get really in depth learning about the covenant, join Steven Harper and myself on a cruise where we discuss the New and Everlasting Covenant in a series of ten lectures/discussions/workshops. This will be fantastic! Plus we dock at Cozumel, Roatan, Costa Maya, and more! Learn more at https://restorationtravels.com/nec-cruise/ In this episode Kerry and Mike Goodman explore some elements of the Abrahamic Covenant. Then Kerry delves into the wonderful but mysterious symbolism of the sacrifice Abraham made when he covenanted with God, and the dividing of the animals in half, and what that has to do with your covenant and with the renewal of your covenant at the sacrament every week. Then Kerry and Phillip Allred explore why Abraham wanted to covenant with God, and why God chose to covenant with Abraham, and how that covenant relates to other scriptural stories of covenants.
