Unlock the transformative power of intentional space and energy as Shannon Bailey, founder of Fierce Feng Shui, shares over 30 years of wisdom in creating harmony at home, work, and beyond. Discover how decluttering, mindful design, and the alignment of energy can support personal growth, prepare you for the upcoming Fire Horse year, and help you set meaningful intentions. Filled with practical tips, personal stories from her home remodel and gardening adventures, and guidance on Feng Shui and Chinese astrology, this conversation inspires action and transformation in everyday life. Key Takeaways: Feng Shui aligns your environment with your inner energy, promoting clarity, focus, and balance. Decluttering and intentional placement of objects can create immediate shifts in energy and perspective. The Year of the Snake is a time for reflection, shedding old patterns, and preparing for a major reset. Setting intentions in your space—through objects, layouts, or symbolic items—amplifies your goals. The upcoming Fire Horse year brings high energy, action, and leadership opportunities; preparation and mindful planning are key. About Shannon Bailey: Shannon Bailey, Founder of Fierce Feng Shui, has been telling people where to put it for over thirty years. Specializing in applying Western Feng Shui principles to homes, businesses and outdoor landscaping, Shannon has even done websites and virtual environments. She draws wisdom and inspiration from Western and Chinese Astrology, the I Ching, myth and symbolism across many cultures. After starting her career in the Midwest, she moved to the Bay Area for a decade and has now returned to Kansas City to play with flowers, dig in the garden, remodel old homes with her husband and tell him where to put it. Shannon, her husband, and 7 kitties (4 kitties moved in from outside) all reside in a 1908 Kansas City shirtwaist that was purchased pre-gutted, but had an amazing porch. The remodel has been slow, dusty, expensive, and exhilarating. The cats haven't been much help. Shannon is available for teaching classes and workshops, private consultations and Chinese Astrology.

Most financial institutions say they are data-driven. Far fewer can prove it in customer acquisition and relationship growth success. At a time when marketing costs are rising, response rates are under pressure, and every institution has access to the same channels, data is often the difference between growth and wasted spend. Today's conversation is about how data actually drives results, not dashboards, not buzzwords, but measurable connections with the right consumers at the right time. We are going to talk about how modeling, channel orchestration, and analytics are reshaping direct marketing for banks and credit unions, and why doing this well is becoming a competitive necessity. I am joined by Preston Carroll, Director of Data and Analytics, and Eddie Tu, Principal Statistical Analyst at Franklin Madison Direct. Together, they work at the intersection of data science, marketing strategy, and financial services growth. Today, we will unpack what actually works, where institutions get it wrong, and how leaders can move from data awareness to data advantage.

Reflection gets skipped over in a culture that rewards speed, productivity, and visible wins. Most people want to jump straight to the next goal list without pausing to tell the truth about what they actually lived through. But reflection isn't some soft year-end ritual. It's a leadership skill and a requirement for building a strong personal brand.We live in a culture that often rewards movement, not meaning. Speed, productivity, and visible wins are celebrated, while reflection is frequently skipped. But reflection isn't a soft reset or a year-end ritual—it's a leadership skill and a critical foundation for building a personal brand that lasts.In this solo episode of Branding Room Only, Paula reflects on more than a decade of guiding intention and goal-setting work. She explores why moving faster isn't the same as moving intentionally, how clarity comes from honesty, and why alignment—not busyness—is what actually sustains growth. The episode surfaces the reflection questions that lead to real breakthroughs and the themes that show up year after year: rest as strategy, asking for help, letting go, and redefining success on your own terms.0:35 – Why reflection changes the quality of every decision that follows2:04 – Examples of how the power of intention quietly shapes alignment4:39 – How words of the year serve as a clarifying anchor6:31 – How vision boards are often misunderstood8:54 – What happens when rest is treated as a requirement, not a reward10:06 – Why doing everything alone isn't a strength10:57 – The freedom of letting go of tolerations that no longer fit11:57 – How reflection dismantles comparison without diminishing ambition12:48 – Reflective questions asked in these yearly sessions14:31 – What results can look like after going through this reflection16:01 – Why naming what matters to you protects your brand from autopilotMentioned In What Ten Years of Guiding Reflection and Goal-Setting With Others Has Taught Me2026 Annual Intention and Goal Setting WebinarPersonal Branding Strategy SessionsIf you enjoyed this episode, leave a 5-star review on your favorite podcast platform!

Are you wondering how shifts in the energy sector and commodity markets might impact your retirement income? In this episode of The Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, Tom Dupree, Mike Johnson, James Dupree, and Clark Dupree reveal why oil company stocks are rising even as oil prices fall—and what this means for Kentucky retirement planning. For investors approaching or enjoying retirement, understanding how quality energy companies provide both income and stability becomes crucial. This conversation demonstrates why personalized investment management focused on individual stock ownership often outperforms mass-market approaches during commodity market volatility. The Energy Sector Paradox: Lower Oil Prices, Higher Stock Values One of 2025’s most surprising market developments has been the disconnect between oil prices and energy company performance. Oil prices dropped 19% this year, yet the energy sector gained approximately 3%. “This is the first time this century that that has happened,” explains Mike Johnson. “Typically the market prices those producers to track the underlying commodity.” This divergence reflects important factors that Kentucky retirement investors should understand: Policy Changes Create Investment Opportunities Recent regulatory shifts have created a more favorable environment for energy companies. Occidental Petroleum quantified benefits from recent legislation at $700-800 million for 2025-2026 alone. Combined with emission standard rollbacks, these changes have extended market expectations for fossil fuel demand. Integrated Oil Companies Provide Natural Hedging Major companies like Chevron and Exxon operate with advantages that pure drilling companies lack. They have multiple profit centers including exploration, production, and refining. “With oil prices in the upper fifties, that means for the refining business their input costs go down,” Johnson notes. “So that’s a more profitable line of business. It’s like a natural built-in hedge.” This structural advantage makes integrated oil companies attractive for investors seeking stable dividend income rather than commodity speculation. Lessons from 2014: Why Energy Companies Are Stronger Today The energy sector’s transformation since 2014 offers crucial insights. When oil peaked at $150 per barrel in 2014, companies embarked on aggressive drilling. By 2020, oil prices had essentially dropped to zero. “Through blood, sweat, and tears, they were forced to become more efficient,” Tom Dupree observes about the industry’s evolution. Today’s energy companies focus on high-quality drilling opportunities with strong returns rather than volume at any cost. This disciplined approach creates sustainable businesses capable of maintaining dividends during commodity downturns. Quality Companies Over Commodity Speculation “This is why we invest in companies that actually make a profit,” Dupree emphasizes. “What we’re trying to do is invest in things that make a profit and pay a dividend and do something that’s valuable.” Silver, Gold, and Bitcoin: Understanding Commodity Risk for Retirees Precious metals have experienced significant volatility. Silver mining company Coeur Mining traded at $8 in August, surged to $24, then pulled back to $19—all while silver and gold continued broader upward trends. Why Commodities Don’t Fit Retirement Income Strategies Mike Johnson explains why Dupree Financial Group approaches commodities cautiously in retirement portfolios: “Gold has no earnings. There’s no dividend associated with it. In a bear market on the commodity, the gold mining companies are gonna stop paying the dividend. In the context of retirement investing and producing an income, it’s just a speculative commodity.” While commodities can appreciate—gold and silver performed exceptionally well recently due to dollar concerns—their lack of earnings and dividends makes them problematic as core holdings for income-focused investors. The Free Cash Flow Advantage Chevron’s 6.8% free cash flow yield versus the S&P 500’s 3.4% illustrates why Dupree Financial Group focuses on individual company ownership. Free cash flow represents actual cash available to shareholders after expenses, providing more accurate valuation than simple price-to-earnings ratios. Companies with strong free cash flow sustain and grow dividends even during commodity weakness, providing the income stability retirees depend upon. What Kentucky Retirement Investors Really Need Clark Dupree, working with prospective clients, offers insight into what drives people to seek professional investment management: “They’re looking for a relationship. They’re looking for somebody to give them peace of mind.” This highlights the distinction between Dupree Financial Group’s personalized approach and commoditized experiences at large national firms. Transparency Over Complexity Many firms use complex jargon that creates client dependency rather than understanding. As Clark notes: “Sometimes advisors rely on codependent relationships that are not healthy. When you talk over somebody’s head, a client may feel disempowered without you.” The team emphasizes clear communication about portfolio holdings, investment rationale, and risk management. Every client owns investments in a separately managed account rather than pooled mutual funds. “We don’t own the stocks that we own and the bonds we own on our balance sheet,” Johnson clarifies. “We hold them on behalf of our clients. That’s the difference.” Specialized Retirement Income Expertise Unlike generalist advisors serving all investor types, Dupree Financial Group specializes in retirement investing and income generation for clients ages 50 and above. “Our specialty is retirement investing and producing that income stream for clients,” Johnson explains. “To concentrate on an income stream and mitigate risk. The byproduct of that is what the returns are.” Every investment decision centers on generating reliable income and managing downside risk. Total returns relative to the S&P 500 become secondary to these primary objectives. Key Takeaways for Kentucky Retirement Investors Energy companies can provide attractive income even when commodity prices decline, especially integrated oil companies with multiple profit centers The 2014-2020 oil collapse taught energy companies efficiency lessons that make today’s dividend-paying energy stocks more sustainable Commodities like gold, silver, and Bitcoin lack earnings and dividend characteristics necessary for reliable retirement income Free cash flow yield provides better insight into dividend sustainability than price-to-earnings ratios Separately managed accounts offer transparency that pooled investments cannot match Specialized retirement investment management serves pre-retirees and retirees better than generalist approaches Clear communication creates empowered investors rather than dependent relationships Notable Quotes from This Episode On energy transformation: “Through blood, sweat, and tears, they were forced to become more efficient. Everything from… the reason for that was in 2014, oil hit $150 a barrel, and by 2020, it had basically dropped to zero.” – Tom Dupree On commodity risks: “Gold has no earnings. There’s no dividend associated with it. In a bear market on the commodity, the gold mining companies are gonna stop paying the dividend.” – Mike Johnson On investment philosophy: “This is why we invest in companies that actually make a profit. We may not keep up with gold or silver that really moves up in a hurry, but over time we think we’ll outperform them.” – Tom Dupree On client relationships: “They’re looking for a relationship. They’re looking for somebody to give them peace of mind.” – Clark Dupree Frequently Asked Questions About Energy Investing and Retirement Portfolios Q: Why are energy stocks performing well even though oil prices have dropped? A: Energy company stocks reflect multiple factors beyond current commodity prices including regulatory changes, improved efficiency since 2014-2020, attractive dividend yields, and recognition that fossil fuels will remain necessary longer than expected. Integrated oil companies particularly benefit because lower oil prices reduce refining input costs. Q: Should retirees invest in gold and silver? A: While precious metals can appreciate significantly, they generate no earnings or dividends. During bear markets lasting a decade or more, they provide no income while potentially declining. For Kentucky retirement portfolios focused on reliable income, dividend-paying quality companies typically serve investors better. Q: What makes integrated oil companies better investments than pure drilling companies? A: Integrated companies like Chevron and Exxon own both drilling operations and refining facilities, creating natural hedges. When oil prices are low, refining divisions benefit from lower input costs. Pure drilling companies lack this balance and remain entirely exposed to commodity swings, making dividends less sustainable. Q: How does personalized investment management differ from large national firms? A: Large firms typically assign clients to counselors who recommend pre-packaged mutual fund portfolios. Personalized management provides direct access to portfolio managers who build custom portfolios of individual stocks and bonds in separately managed accounts, providing complete transparency about holdings and fees. Q: What is free cash flow yield and why does it matter? A: Free cash flow yield measures actual cash a company generates after expenses relative to stock price. Unlike earnings with non-cash items, free cash flow represents real cash available for dividends. Companies with high free cash flow yields (Chevron’s 6.8% versus the S&P 500’s 3.4%) have greater capacity to sustain dividends during challenges. Q: Why specialize in retirement investing rather than serving all investors? A: Retirement investing requires different strategies than accumulation. Retirees need reliable income, downside protection, and portfolios sustaining withdrawals for 30+ years. Specializing in clients ages 50 and above allows deep expertise in income-focused strategies and risk management techniques, serving this phase most effectively. Take Control of Your Kentucky Retirement Portfolio If you’re approaching retirement or already retired and want a local financial advisor providing direct access to portfolio managers rather than assigned counselors, Dupree Financial Group offers a different approach. Our three-generation, Kentucky-based team specializes in creating personalized, income-focused portfolios using individual stock and bond ownership rather than mass-market mutual funds. You deserve transparency about what you own, why you own it, and exactly what fees you’re paying.

Sirens, Slammers and Service - A podcast for Female First Responders
Send us a textThis episode of Sirens, Slammers and Service takes you behind the reins of one of policing's most unique and powerful units. Nikki is joined by Robin Koltusky, Mounted Patrol Team Lead with the Calgary Police Service and AWIPS Civilian of the Year 2025, for a deep dive into what it really takes to run a modern mounted unit. Robin shares her unconventional path into policing—from a lifetime in horsemanship and entrepreneurship to becoming a civilian subject matter expert within CPS—and how that expertise helped reshape the Mounted Unit's breeding program, herd assessment, and training standards. We break down the four operational portfolios of Mounted Patrol—frontline patrol, community engagement, search, and public safety support—plus the intense tactical training horses and officers undergo, including desensitization to crowds, noise, footing, and chaos. If you've ever wondered how officers and horses are selected, trained, and deployed when it matters most, this episode delivers.
Income-focused investing may seem old-school in a world dominated by total-return portfolios and model ETF allocations—but for some retirees, predictable cash flow is the key to peace of mind. This episode explores how a differentiated investment philosophy, rooted in individual income-producing securities, can become a powerful engine for both client trust and firm growth. David Scranton is the CEO of Sound Income Group, an RIA based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, overseeing $4 billion for 10,000 client households. Listen in as David shares how he constructs income-focused portfolios using combinations of what he calls "insured options" and "contractual securities", as well as high-dividend equity instruments with a focus on individual securities rather than mutual funds or ETFs. You'll learn how steady cash flow has led to greater client retention in down markets, David's "four keys" to attracting clients, and why narrowing his investment focus (and creating systems to implement it) has ultimately allowed him to serve more families.

In this episode of the Journey Beyond Divorce Podcast, I'm speaking directly to the men who are walking through the intensity of high conflict divorce — the pressure, the triggers, the confusion, and the deep internal unraveling that often comes with it. Men in high conflict divorce are asked to hold an extraordinary amount: to respond instead of react, to stay grounded when provoked, and to lead even when everything around them feels uncertain. And while I coach men through these challenges every single day, I also know that some truths land more powerfully when they come from another man who embodies the discipline, steadiness, and intentional leadership required to rise during divorce. That's why I invited Michael Holt, founder of the international Savage & Saint Collective, to join me for this conversation. Michael has dedicated his life to helping men reclaim emotional sovereignty, cultivate presence, and embody a form of masculine leadership that is rooted in clarity rather than chaos. His work blends meditation, martial arts, psychology, holistic health, and serious inner discipline — and it aligns deeply with what I teach men navigating high conflict divorce: that the real power lies not in controlling others, but in mastering yourself. Michael and I explore the patterns that keep men stuck in reactivity during divorce and the internal shifts required to break those cycles. We talk about the cost of abandoning your center, how quickly men give away their power when triggered, and what it takes to stay grounded when you feel attacked, misunderstood, or overwhelmed. Michael offers a male perspective on strength that doesn't rely on force, suppression, or avoidance, but instead comes from presence, vitality, and self-awareness — qualities that become essential when the stakes are high and the conflict feels relentless. Together, we dig into the difference between reactive masculinity and embodied leadership, and why men who learn to regulate their nervous system and stay anchored in who they are gain far more influence — not just in their divorce, but in their lives, relationships, and fatherhood. We discuss how men can cultivate discipline, stability, and clarity even in the middle of legal battles, emotional turmoil, and the dismantling of a marriage. This is the kind of conversation that gives men direction, grounding, and a roadmap for showing up as the man they want to be, not the man the conflict tries to turn them into. Michael Holt is a powerful example of what it looks like to live the work rather than talk about it. His Savage & Saint Collective supports men around the world in strengthening their inner foundation so they can show up with integrity, courage, and calm — exactly what is needed in high conflict divorce. If you're a man navigating divorce and you've been searching for guidance from someone who truly understands the internal journey you're on, this episode will offer the clarity and steadiness you've been craving. This is about reclaiming yourself, rebuilding your center, and stepping into the kind of leadership that can change the trajectory of your life.

If your revenue has stalled despite strong demand, this playbook shows how numbers, systems, and leadership, not bigger ad spend, restart explosive growth. In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Karl Maier, Founder of Abunden, an experienced CEO and business advisor who has played a key role in doubling sales at 5 companies in just 2 years. In this conversation, Maier explains how installing a 13-week cash forecast, building repeatable operating systems, and developing leaders unlock capacity so growth sticks. He also shares his Abundant Framework, insights from his book Surfing Economic Chaos, and what actually changes when you scale from $10M to $100M. Key Takeaways: → Why growth stalls after early success, and how shifting from heroics to repeatable systems and delegation restarts momentum. → The 13-week cash flow cadence: a simple weekly forecast that prevents surprises and fuels confident decisions. → When marketing isn't the first lever: fix finance, ops capacity, and delivery so sales gains don't break the machine. → “Every time you double, everything breaks”—what to upgrade (process, tools, roles) before pressing the gas. → The hardest part of $100M isn't spreadsheets, it's people, alignment, and leadership bench strength. Karl Maier is the founder of Abunden, where he helps CEOs transition from survival mode to achieving predictable, profitable growth. Specializing in energy-related companies, Karl turns financial blind spots into powerful growth engines, guiding both organic and acquisition-led expansion. He has extensive experience in private equity, family office roles, and capital raises, including supporting a $10M fracking water cleaning project and raising debt and equity for a $192 million EV private equity acquisition. Karl's expertise spans mergers and acquisitions (M&A), including buy-side support for international expansions and a $45 million B2B distribution company. He has also been instrumental in turnaround situations, such as guiding a healthcare services company to 40% growth and helping a coffee company pivot to hand sanitizer during COVID, generating $400K in just five months. With global CFO experience, Karl has led teams across Europe, the Middle East, Australia, and Asia.
