Hello to you listening in Spokane, Washington!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.“I will tell you something about stories, he saidThey aren't just entertainment.Don't be fooled.They are all we have, you see,all we have to fight offillness and death.”   ~ Leslie Marmon Silko, Haida Ceremony [The Golden Spruce by John Vaillant, p. 145]Haida NationI may be an old fashioned storyteller clinging to the oral tradition, especially when working with your narratives that function as origin stories, creation myths, messages of all kinds to be seen, heard, understood, repeated and followed, as well as cautions for the young and memories for the elders. Why do I insist on the music of the spoken word? Because that's where the magic happens: at the intersection of the story, the listener, and the teller's voice with its cadence, tone, inflection, repetition, pacing, and energy.So much gets lost in translation to the printed page. What we yearn for without even knowing it is human connection. My clients learn how to connect with their stories and with themselves to be in better service to their purpose.Question: What would you like to learn about the power of story?

Welcome back to Stories from the River. December is here, so Charlie Malouf, Broad River's CEO and Stories from the River podcast host is back with a laundry list of updates.  First, we are happy to announce the opening of a brand new store in Easley, South Carolina. A two-in-one, dual concept Ashley Store & Outlet. https://stores.ashleyfurniture.com/store/us/south-carolina/easley/5149-calhoun-memorial-pkwy/   Even though new store openings are most definitely kind of a big deal around here, the Easley store seemed to have sprouted out of nowhere, and that's all thanks to our incredible team that works tirelessly behind the scenes. Charlie explains the process and acknowledges the team members involved to make this seemingly impossible task come to life. It may look effortless, but thanks to the effort of everyone involved, store number 34 is now live. It will be followed shortly by the iconic, new 3-story Ashley Store & Outlet in Spokane, WA, later this month, and then another new Ashley Store in Moscow, ID, in early 2026 Charlie then moves on to discussing the recently completed 95-Day Challenge and what that means for Broad River's growth. Even though the challenge wasn't technically met all the way, Broad River is still on its way to complete its annual financial goal of reaching $272 million in revenue. This is part of a larger, 6-year goal of growing 12% YoY and reaching a doubling in 2030.  Even though the 95-Day Challenge wasn't fully met, there are some teams that have done an exceptional job, and Charlie takes this opportunity to acknowledge them on the show. Their outstanding performance is what really shines through year over year.  Stay with us as we complete the year with more exciting updates, holiday events, and maybe some remote footage from Spokane, WA, so we can see how that massive store opening is really going.    This episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LLGgNcAgiXk    Visit https://www.storiesfromtheriver.com for more episodes.   Broad River Retail brought this show to you.

Author Sonora Jha talks with Spokesman-Review columnist Cindy Hval about Jha's novel, INTEMPERANCE, at a gathering of the Northwest Passages Book Club at the Montvale Event Center Monday, Nov. 14, 2025 in Spokane, Washington.

In this episode, Eric Thompson sits down with Stephanie Peterson, a dedicated Ninja Realtor® from Spokane, Washington. With 11 years of experience and an incredible ability to generate over $200,000 annually working just 20 hours a week, Stephanie shares how living intentionally, staying in flow, and focusing on relationships has completely transformed her life and business. Episode Summary Stephanie Peterson, a long-time Ninja and real estate professional with Windermere City Group, has built a highly efficient and relationship-driven business centered around a select group of 100 people. Rather than expanding endlessly, she focuses on depth by tracking her productivity, staying in consistent contact with her top clients, and living a well-rounded, fulfilling life outside of work. Her systematic and intentional approach enables her to balance a high income with meaningful free time. This episode delves into Stephanie's annual business planning method, including how she calculates the value of her time, schedules her week around her top priorities, and makes every decision based on ROI, both financial and emotional. Through quarterly pop-bys, annual reviews, and handwritten notes, she has made her business a hub of authentic relationships and genuine care. She also explains the art of managing her time into productive (P), indirectly productive (I), and eliminated (E) activities (she has zero E-time in her calendar). Listeners will also learn how Stephanie cultivates strong connections with fellow agents through intentional networking, hosting events, and thoughtful follow-up strategies. Whether you're seeking to streamline your business or increase your joy in your career, Stephanie's insights offer a powerful model of simplicity, connection, and purpose. Key Takeaways Focus Beats Volume: You don't need thousands of contacts to succeed; Stephanie generates six figures by serving 100 people with depth and care. Work Smarter: She works only 20 hours a week by scheduling her time with precision and tracking income per hour — over $2,000/hour for client time. Pop-By Strategy: Personalized quarterly gifts (like homemade salsa or Dad's Root Beer kits) strengthen relationships and generate referrals. Annual Reviews = Relationship Gold: She uses annual real estate reviews to provide value, deepen connection, and identify new business opportunities. Efficiency Through Systems: Everything, from gift inventory to CRM input, is systematized, allowing her to stay creative without being overwhelmed. Intentional Realtor Networking: Stephanie nurtures a nationwide referral network through memorable follow-up, event hosting, and meaningful gifts. Living Beyond Work: Embracing creativity, travel, and personal connection, she has built a life where work supports but doesn't define her. Memorable Quotes "The system is simple if you work the system." "I work 20 hours a week, earn over $200K, and focus on just 100 people." "If I want a big crop, I have to take care of my plants: I weed, water, and prune. That's how I treat my database." "Real estate has given me some of the best friendships in my life." "Don't just brush your teeth once; don't just go to one Ninja Installation. Keep brushing your business." "Busy doesn't equal productive. It's the right activities that bring results." "Who are your vital few? And what are the vital few activities?"

In this episode of In The Den, I sat down with Renée Cebula, the historian‑turned‑entrepreneur behind Badass Bitters, Badass Barware, and Raising the Bar — three Spokane-born businesses built around cocktail history, education, and hands‑on creativity.Renée doesn't just make bitters. She teaches people the story behind them — how bitters moved from ancient medicine to the backbone of American cocktail culture. Her DIY kits bring that history to life, giving both bartenders and home mixologists everything they need to craft their own custom batches, all while learning the origins of the flavors they're working with.We talk about how her background as a historian shaped her work, how Badass Bitters grew from research into a full product line, and why she's passionate about helping people understand the past through what's in their glass. We also get into why she joined SIMBA, what she's hoping to build in Spokane's small business community, and how local support plays a role in keeping these craft traditions alive.Whether you love cocktails, love history, or just want to try something new in your home bar — Renée's story is a perfect reminder that learning can be interactive, flavorful, and pretty fun, too.⁠Discover more at badass-bitters.com⁠

The best team cultures realize that recruiting isn't transactional. It's transformational and impacted by how we lead, serve and compete as a team. Episode Summary: Is "transformational recruiting" dead in the age of the Transfer Portal and NIL? In this episode, Jason sits down with college basketball legend and CBS Sports analyst Clark Kellogg to dismantle the idea that leadership has become purely transactional. They explore why culture remains the ultimate competitive advantage for any team—whether on the court or in the corporate boardroom. Clark shares his personal philosophy on being a "faithful presence" amidst chaos, the rise of servant leadership in modern coaching, and how to maintain deep human connection in a fast-paced world. Tune in for a masterclass on stewardship, influence, and building teams that last. Key Takeaways & Timestamps: [00:05:26] Beyond the Analyst Desk: Clark reveals the side of him most fans don't see—including his "silly" side and his obsession with order and details. [00:07:48] The "Faithful Presence" Philosophy: Clark breaks down his personal definition of success: being a faithful presence of the "fruit of the spirit" (patience, kindness, self-control) in every room he enters, from the airport to the studio. [00:13:20] Servant Leadership Defined: Why the most effective leaders today aren't "top-of-the-pyramid" authoritarians, but influencers who focus on moving their people "up and forward." [00:19:00] Examples of Excellence: A look at modern coaching cultures that win by putting people first, featuring insights on Ryan Day (Ohio State), Kelvin Sampson (Houston), and Shaka Smart (Marquette). [00:22:54] The Great Debate: Transactional vs. Transformational: Jason and Clark push back on the narrative that recruiting is now solely transactional. They discuss why high-performers still choose culture and development over a quick paycheck. [00:30:28] The Gonzaga Case Study: How a commitment to culture transformed a small school in Spokane into a national powerhouse and 4x'd the university's budget. [00:36:31] The Power of Connection: Clark discusses his current passion for connecting good people to good causes through his work with the Columbus Foundation. Quotable Moments: "Leadership really is influence... committed to the responsibility you have to elevate and serve those entrusted to your care." "Culture is your greatest competitive advantage."

Send us a textThis week on Greenfield's Finest Podcast, the boys break down the Steelers' 28–31 loss to the Bears, Ja'Marr Chase's spit-gate apology to Jalen Ramsey, and a fully furnished “homeless mansion” popping up on 2nd Ave with actual hours of operation. Then it's another wild run through the Pittsburgh Scanner featuring a guy on Carson who thinks he pissed off the mafia, kids in a parking garage blasting passing cars with a fire extinguisher, and a Hill District caller convinced Putin has her under surveillance.In Corndick of the Week, the guys get into the Brazilian influencer divorcing herself, a repeat bank robber trying to hit the same exact bank nine years later, a message-in-a-bottle that came back with a hate-mail letter, and three dudes in Algeria caught sneaking onto a ship disguised as sheep. Brother in Arms brings a feel-good throwback with 20,000 bikers riding for a terminally ill kid, plus a Spokane man who stole a bus just to run the route—and actually did a decent job. They close it out with Gear Grinders and What Would Greenfield Do, debating Thanksgiving pies, holiday tweaks, and whether real men go over the waistband or use the fly at the urinal.Check out our upcoming events, social media, and merch sale at the link below ⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/GFP Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/7viuBywVXF4e52CHUgk1i5 Produced by Lane Media ⁠https://www.lanemediapgh.com/

In this episode, host Zack Nowak sits down with former NHLer Derek Ryan, whose remarkable career stands as one of hockey's greatest examples of perseverance, adaptability, and late-bloomer success. From growing up in Spokane to Canadian university hockey, to Austria and Sweden, to finally earning a full-time NHL role at age 29, Derek shares how every stop along the way shaped him into the trusted, reliable 200-foot player he became.Derek discusses the challenges of being overlooked, learning to reinvent himself at every level, and embracing the mindset required to keep climbing when most players stop. He reflects on the offensive freedom he found in Europe, the defensive discipline he learned in Sweden, the grind of the AHL, and the humility it took to grow, change his game, and prove he belonged in the NHL.Listeners also get insight into Derek's evolution into a top faceoff specialist, the importance of multi-sport development, and how his experiences now shape him as a youth coach—helping players avoid the trap of being “one type” of athlete.Derek's story is a powerful reminder that there is no single path to elite performance and that embracing discomfort, challenge, and growth can unlock opportunities far beyond what many players imagine.Join the discussion on X @USAHockeyCoach

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to introduce you all to: MK ULTRA, Split Consciousness and Secret Space Program, child trafficking and organized abuse survivor, whistleblower and overcomer, loving mother, hiker and homesteader, published writer and author, host of her own podcast, creator and developer of her own growing and thriving Patreon community, independent researcher, vocal performance extraordinaire, remote viewer, and psionic warrioress: Veronika LynneBorn into a legacy of hidden hands - three generations deep in occult ties and intelligence webs - her earliest years unfolded in the sterile halls of Bay Area labs and the candlelit circles of secret societies, all under the long shadow of MK ULTRA. Stanford, Berkeley, Half Moon Bay: these were some of her nurseries, where trauma-based conditioning splintered her psyche and where her psychic gifts were forged into weapons for a program that never officially ended.Spokane offered no sanctuary, only deeper exploitation and the first whispers of a Split Consciousness Program - often called the Secret Space Program (SSP). For two decades, Veronika lived a double existence. By day, a gifted musician with a voice that could silence rooms; by night - or in the erased hours between - she was a remote viewer tracking emerald mines in Colombia's chaos, a conduit in blood-soaked rituals, and a commodity in underground playgrounds for the elite - human and otherwise. Beneath California's mountains, she trained in psychic warfare inside clandestine facilities; high in secret peaks, she touched the consciousness of an ancient ark. Healing cracked the vault. A car crash in Bulgaria, dreams that bled into waking life, and the steady hand of fellow SSP whistleblower, Michael, unlocked the flood. Memories returned not as fragments but as revelations, each one a key. And then, at thirty-seven, the final shock: she discovered was still active and being activated. A “shadow agent,” a dissociative operative designed to bury truth. But love - real, defiant love - shattered the script. An alter named Christine tore down the walls. They exposed the handlers, escaped the web, and survived under unseen protection.CONNECT WITH VERONIKA: -Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/SpaceMystic?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink-Purchase Veronika's Memoir "Out of Sight" on Amazon: https://a.co/d/iiyvwyB-YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@VeronikaLynne-Websites: https://www.dreamdisclosure.com/ ,  https://www.psiion.com/ , & https://www.spacemystic.com/-TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@veronika_lynne-IG: https://www.instagram.com/veronikalynne_spacemystic/-X: https://x.com/Veronika_LynneCONNECT WITH EMMA: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.com BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theimaginationVENMO: @emmapreneurCASHSupport the show

The AnfieldIndex USA era kicks off in heartfelt, chaotic and wonderfully honest fashion as new host Ross Carper steps up to the mic for the very first time. In this opening episode, Ross introduces his journey into Liverpool fandom, his mission to build a thriving American Reds community, and the origins of the Stateside Scouser show. From watching matches at dawn on the US West Coast to creating a local supporters' hub in Spokane, he shares the relatable, often hilarious reality of being a relatively new Red trying to immerse himself in the club's history and culture. Ross reflects on the emotional turbulence of Liverpool's season, the tragedy that shook the club in the summer, and standout moments featuring Conor Bradley, Dominik Szoboszlai and Florian Wirtz. He also launches his recurring segment “American Idiot”, where he invites listeners to educate him on parts of the global game that still baffle him, beginning with the mystery of why missing pre-season seems to break elite footballers. The episode closes with a look back at the rough pilot that inspired the relaunch, featuring Ross and close friend David debating fandom, choosing a club, Liverpool's history, Klopp's legacy, and what it means to truly commit to the Reds. A warm, funny and deeply personal opening chapter, perfect for American fans finding their way into Liverpool's world. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

An update from the Seattle mayoral race. EXCLUSIVE: As Washington voted, Secretary Steve Hobbs played board games in Germany on taxpayers’ dime. Guest: Mariah Gondeiro is Litigation Counsel for Liberty Counsel, which is representing a lawsuit against a Washington Law that gutted parents’ rights. // Big Local: A Spokane camping ban is yielding positive results.

In this Halloween edition of American Potential, host David From talks with Heather Andrews, Western States Regional Director for Americans for Prosperity, about Washington State's frightening new housing policy. Lawmakers promised relief for renters with a “rent stabilization” bill—really a rent control measure—that caps rent increases but ignores the real cause of sky-high prices: a massive housing shortage. Heather explains how the law threatens to scare off builders, shrink rental supply, and make affordability even worse for families already struggling to find a place to live. Together, they break down why quick political fixes like rent caps only freeze broken markets in place, and what real reform looks like—tackling zoning restrictions, cutting permit delays, and slashing the $140,000 in government costs it takes just to break ground on a new home in Washington. From Seattle to Spokane, the real solution isn't controlling prices—it's unleashing supply.
