Podcasts about Spotting

Let's be honest,  public school wasn't designed for kids with ADHD. Too often, these kids are labeled, misunderstood, and pushed into systems that don't fit how their brains learn best. But what if the problem isn't your child, but the system itself? In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, host Dana Kay, ADHD health practitioner and founder of the ADHD Thrive Method for Kids speaks with Leslie Dernberger, founder of Aspire Education, mom of four, and one of the nation's leading experts in K–12 education for neurodiverse learners. Drawing on her legal background and over a decade of experience helping families, Leslie unpacks why traditional schooling often fails ADHD kids and what parents can do about it. From understanding homeschool laws and navigating deschooling, to structuring the day and busting common misconceptions, this episode is filled with practical guidance and encouragement. Whether you're curious about homeschooling, exploring hybrid options, or just want to better support your child's learning, this conversation will give you hope and actionable tools. Links Mentioned in the Show:▶ Aspire Education: https://www.aspireeducation.us/ ▶ Homeschool Legal Defense Association (HSLDA): https://hslda.org Key Takeaways: [00:00] Public school isn't built for many ADHD learners andwhy fit-the-mold systems backfire. [02:37] Meet Leslie Dirnberger (Aspire Education): mom of four, homeschool veteran, legal background, supports thousands of families. [04:23] The "catalyst event": what finally pushes parents to seek alternatives. [06:03] Spotting the signal: "the spark is gone" and nothing at school is fixing it. [07:16] First steps legally: understand your state's rules; public vs. private education; where homeschooling fits. [10:05] Deschooling 101: reset the parent first; museum/nature learning to reconnect. [13:38] Foundation step: define "a good education" as a family; ask kids what learning should look like. [15:24] Myth-busting socialization: why homeschoolers often get better real-world social practice. [18:30] Colleges love homeschoolers: time management, self-advocacy, executive function. [26:27] Standardized tests miss the mark, especially for ADHD,  focus on mastery instead. Memorable Moments: "The truth is, your child doesn't need to be fixed. They need an education that actually fits their brain." "There is a catalyst event that has occurred that creates a situation that the parents go, wait a second, let's take a step back here." "The spark has gone out, the light has gone out of their eyes and the parents know something's wrong." "The hardest part of homeschooling? Looking myself in the mirror and challenging my own beliefs." "What does a good education look like for your family and for your children?" "Nothing could be further from the truth — homeschoolers are often better socialized." "Colleges love homeschoolers because they know how to manage their time and advocate for themselves." "Accreditation is a game. It is absolutely garbage. It doesn't mean a thing." "Everything is geared towards standardized testing in government schools. And that's why they're in a box and they ram it through, which is terrible for ADHD kids." "Your children can own their own education and advocate for themselves at school." Dana Kay Resources:

AJ and Johnny break down how to hold your frame when someone takes a subtle dig or tries to knock you off balance. Whether it's a jealous coworker, a critical friend, or a family member pushing your buttons, they reveal the psychology behind those low-value power plays — and how high-value people stay calm, composed, and in control. You'll learn the four value positions that drive every interaction, the emotional traps that pull you into defending or proving yourself, and a simple three-step system to keep your composure under pressure. Instead of reacting, you'll learn how to define the moment — and walk away stronger.

Meteors, shooting stars, or falling stars are different names for the streaks of light in the night sky which are in reality the dying embers of tiny asteroids. These small interplanetary travelers were speeding along at between 7 and 44 miles per second when they entered the Earth's atmosphere. In space, they are called meteoroids and typically ranged in size from that of a grain of sand to perhaps ones as big as of a piece of driveway gravel. Large space pebbles can produce fireballs which are brighter than the planet Venus. Most meteors burn up 50-70 miles above you, however, a very few of them produce fragments which fall to the Earth's surface. In rare occasions meteor observers are able to walk up to such a fallen space rock which is called a fall. The best time to view meteors is generally after midnight on a clear, moonless night. You will see many more meteors in a rural area than under city lights. On nights not during a meteor shower, you may expect to view sporadic meteors at the rate of between 2 and 16 per hour. Some meteor showers produce more than 100 events per hour. Rarely you will have a chance to view a meteor storm which will give you the feeling that you are seeing the Earth move through space. In 1966 one of these storms produced a WOW inspiring 40 meteors per second. During the year, there are a dozen major meteor showers. Check out the International Meteor Organization Calendar for a complete listing of the dates of meteor showers as well as how bright the moon will be on those dates. Happy viewing.

If you've been feeling like you've done so much inner work but your outer reality hasn't caught up yet… this episode is for you. Today I'm introducing a concept that completely changed how I see my current season:Your Wildly Wealthy Woman Gathering Era. This is the season where it looks like not much is happening on the outside…but internally? You are gathering everything you need for your next level. In this episode, we dive into: What your “gathering era” really is How to reframe the season where you feel behind into a powerful time of preparation, integration, and identity building. Why you feel “behind” (and why you're actually not)The thoughts high-achieving women have when their vision is bigger than the current evidence — and how shame sneaks in and makes you want to hide. Gathering instead of hidingHow to see this season as gathering:– Tools– Wisdom– Capacity– Discernment– Habits that create long-term wealth The mastermind storyI share about being in a room with women having million-dollar months and the pressure I felt — and how I realized I was never behind, just gathering. Consistency ≠ perfectionHow my “Daily 5” works in real life (move, read, post, sell, write goals)… and why following through does notmean doing it perfectly every day. Spotting your avoidant part (with love, not shame)Why there's always a part of you that wants to tap out right before you expand — and how to work with her instead of fighting her. The identity upgrade: from “becoming her” → “I am her now”We shift your language from: “The woman I'm becoming is…”to“I am the woman who…”and how that small shift rewires how you see yourself. What your Gathering Era might look like in real lifeIt might look like:– Learning new skills– Being humbled and rebuilding– Cleaning up your finances– Healing patterns around men, money, or visibility– Regulating your nervous system– Decluttering your life and business A message from your future selfA reminder that your future wildly wealthy woman is already thanking you for this season — for not giving up, for learning, for staying in the game. Key affirmations from this episode: You can repeat these with your hand on your heart: “I am gathering.” “I am not just becoming her — I am her now.” “I am walking with God step by step.” “This season is building the woman who can hold what I'm asking for.” Ready to be held in your Gathering Era? If this episode hit home and you're ready to walk through your gathering era with guidance, tapping, identity work, and a community of women doing this alongside you…

Have you ever dated someone who felt amazing in the beginning only to realize later you ignored red flags that were right in front of you? It happens to so many women—especially after divorce—because we're craving connection, safety, and a fresh start. But some of the biggest red flags aren't loud or obvious. They're subtle. Quiet. And they sneak up on you when your guard is down.   In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm joined by relationship coach and author Daniel Ratner for one of the realest conversations we've had on dating after divorce. We dig into why chemistry can mislead you, how unhealthy patterns repeat themselves, and the sneaky signs of "emotional vampires" who drain your energy long before you realize what's happening. Daniel also breaks down the difference between emotional safety and infatuation, how to raise your standards without losing hope, and why self-esteem is the invisible filter determining who you attract.   If you've been dating after divorce and keep finding yourself giving more than you get—or getting stuck in the same patterns—this episode is for you.   Resources Mentioned: Check out Daniel's books: https://coachratner.com/ The Coach Daniel Ratner Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-coach-daniel-ratner-podcast/id1595629326 The Confident Coach Certification Waitlist is the ONLY certification specifically for divorced moms who want overcome imposter syndrome and finally feel legit: https://products.ambershaw.com/certification Join the waitlist for ReNewU: https://products.ambershaw.com/signature-waitlist Higher Infrared Sauna Blanket use code AMBER 15: https://higherdose.com/products/infrared-sauna-blanket   What We Discuss: 01:40 The emotional boundaries most women overlook 04:12 How to redefine love and what you actually want in a relationship 07:04 The real challenges of dating again in your 40s and 50s 12:26 How self-esteem shapes the partners you attract 14:26 Spotting emotional vampires before they drain your energy 19:15 The messy truth about parenting and partnership dynamics 20:28 Raising teens while trying to date (and stay sane) 23:46 Red flags that signal someone is toxic (and how to steer clear) 25:37 How to rebuild yourself after divorce without losing hope 34:51 Why self-value is the foundation of every healthy relationship 36:32 Where to find more support, resources, and guidance   Find more from Daniel Ratner: Website: http://www.CoachRatner.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachratnerpodcast/ X: https://x.com/dan613ratner?s=21 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChDspvEbSIWDSo9X5WoSghw TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachratnerpodcast/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/coach-ratner-45b4678a/     Find more from Amber Shaw: Instagram: @msambershaw Website: ambershaw.com

In this second part of my three-part series (catch Part I via episode 182), I dig deeper into the key idea that sales in commercial data products can be accelerated by designing for actual user workflows—vs. going wide with a “many-purpose” AI and analytics solution that “does more,” but is misaligned with how users' most important work actually gets done.   To explain this, I will explain the concept of user experience (UX) outcomes, and how building your solution to enable these outcomes may be a dependency for you to get sales traction, and for your customer to see the value of your solution. I also share practical steps to improve UX outcomes in commercial data products, from establishing a baseline definition of UX quality to mapping out users' current workflows (and future ones, when agentic AI changes their job). Finally, I talk about how approaching product development as small “bets” helps you build small, and learn fast so you can accelerate value creation.    Highlights/ Skip to: Continuing the journey: designing for users, workflows, and tasks (00:32) How UX impacts sales—not just usage and  adoption(02:16) Understanding how you can leverage users' frustrations and perceived risks as fuel for building an indispensable data product (04:11)  Definition of a UX outcome (7:30) Establishing a baseline definition of product (UX) quality, so you know how to observe and measure improvement (11:04 ) Spotting friction and solving the right customer problems first (15:34) Collecting actionable user feedback (20:02) Moving users along the scale from frustration to satisfaction to delight (23:04) Unique challenges of designing B2B AI and analytics products used for decision intelligence (25:04) Quotes from Today's Episode One of the hardest parts of building anything meaningful, especially in B2B or data-heavy spaces, is pausing long enough to ask what the actual ‘it' is that we're trying to solve. People rush into building the fix, pitching the feature, or drafting the roadmap before they've taken even a moment to define what the user keeps tripping over in their day-to-day environment.   And until you slow down and articulate that shared, observable frustration, you're basically operating on vibes and assumptions instead of behavior and reality.   What you want is not a generic problem statement but an agreed-upon description of the two or three most painful frictions that are obvious to everyone involved, frictions the user experiences visibly and repeatedly in the flow of work.   Once you have that grounding, everything else prioritization, design decisions, sequencing, even organizational alignment suddenly becomes much easier because you're no longer debating abstractions, you're working against the same measurable anchor.   And the irony is, the faster you try to skip this step, the longer the project drags on, because every downstream conversation becomes a debate about interpretive language rather than a conversation about a shared, observable experience. __ Want people to pay for your product? Solve an *observable* problem—not a vague information or data problem. What do I mean? “When you're trying to solve a problem for users, especially in analytical or AI-driven products, one of the biggest traps is relying on interpretive statements instead of observable ones.   Interpretive phrasing like ‘they're overwhelmed' or ‘they don't trust the data' feels descriptive, but it hides the important question of what, exactly, we can see them doing that signals the problem.   If you can't film it happening, if you can't watch the behavior occur in real time, then you don't actually have a problem definition you can design around.   Observable frustration might be the user jumping between four screens, copying and pasting the same value into different systems, or re-running a query five times because something feels off even though they can't articulate why.   Those concrete behaviors are what allow teams to converge and say, ‘Yes, that's the thing, that is the friction we agree must change,' and that shift from interpretation to observation becomes the foundation for better design, better decision-making, and far less wasted effort.   And once you anchor the conversation in visible behavior, you eliminate so many circular debates and give everyone, from engineering to leadership, a shared starting point that's grounded in reality instead of theory." __ One of the reasons that measuring the usability/utility/satisfaction of your product's UX might seem hard is that you don't have a baseline definition of how satisfactory (or not) the product is right now. As such, it's very hard to tell if you're just making product *changes*—or you're making *improvements* that might make the product worth paying for at all, worth paying more for, or easier to buy. "It's surprisingly common for teams to claim they're improving something when they've never taken the time to document what the current state even looks like. If you want to create a meaningful improvement, something a user actually feels, you need to understand the baseline level of friction they tolerate today, not what you imagine that friction might be. Establishing a baseline is not glamorous work, but it's the work that prevents you from building changes that make sense on paper but do nothing to the real flow of work. When you diagram the existing workflow, when you map the sequence of steps the user actually takes, the mismatches between your mental model and their lived experience become crystal clear, and the design direction becomes far less ambiguous. That act of grounding yourself in the current state allows every subsequent decision, prioritizing fixes, determining scope, measuring progress, to be aligned with reality rather than assumptions. And without that baseline, you risk designing solutions that float in conceptual space, disconnected from the very pains you claim to be addressing." __ Prototypes are a great way to learn—if you're actually treating them as a means to learn, and not a product you intend to deliver regardless of the feedback customers give you.  "People often think prototyping is about validating whether their solution works, but the deeper purpose is to refine the problem itself. Once you put even a rough prototype in front of someone and watch what they do with it, you discover the edges of the problem more accurately than any conversation or meeting can reveal. Users will click in surprising places, ignore the part you thought mattered most, or reveal entirely different frictions just by trying to interact with the thing you placed in front of them. That process doesn't just improve the design, it improves the team's understanding of which parts of the problem are real and which parts were just guesses. Prototyping becomes a kind of externalization of assumptions, forcing you to confront whether you're solving the friction that actually holds back the flow of work or a friction you merely predicted. And every iteration becomes less about perfecting the interface and more about sharpening the clarity of the underlying problem, which is why the teams that prototype early tend to build faster, with better alignment, and far fewer detours." __ Most founders and data people tend to measure UX quality by “counting usage” of their solution. Tracking usage stats, analytics on sessions, etc. The problem with this is that it tells you nothing useful about whether people are satisfied (“meets spec”) or delighted (“a product they can't live without”). These are product metrics—but they don't reflect how people feel. There are better measurements to use for evaluating users' experience that go beyond “willingness to pay.”  Payment is great, but in B2B products, buyers aren't always users—and we've all bought something based on the promise of what it would do for us, but the promise fell short. "In B2B analytics and AI products, the biggest challenge isn't complexity, it's ambiguity around what outcome the product is actually responsible for changing.   Teams often define success in terms of internal goals like ‘adoption,' ‘usage,' or ‘efficiency,' but those metrics don't tell you what the user's experience is supposed to look like once the product is working well.   A product tied to vague business outcomes tends to drift because no one agrees on what the improvement should feel like in the user's real workflow.   What you want are visible, measurable, user-centric outcomes, outcomes that describe how the user's behavior or experience will change once the solution is in place, down to the concrete actions they'll no longer need to take.   When you articulate outcomes at that level, it forces the entire organization to align around a shared target, reduces the scope bloat that normally plagues enterprise products, and gives you a way to evaluate whether you're actually removing friction rather than just adding more layers of tooling.   And ironically, the clearer the user outcome is, the easier it becomes to achieve the business outcome, because the product is no longer floating in abstraction, it's anchored in the lived reality of the people who use it."   Links Listen to part one: Episode 182  Schedule a Design-Eyes Assessment with me and get clarity, now.

In this episode of Your Natural Dog, Angela sits down with Kelly Bone, founder of Saving Pets One Pet at a Time, to talk about a topic a lot of pet parents are quietly struggling with: who can you actually trust with your pet's health? Kelly shares the heartbreaking story of losing her dog, Duncan, to a recalled prescription pet food and how that grief turned her into a fierce advocate, lead plaintiff in a class action lawsuit, and the creator of a 175,000-member Facebook community. Angela and Kelly dig into what “holistic” really means, why the word is now slapped on everything from vet clinics to online coaches, and how pet parents can spot red flags in veterinarians, nutrition courses, supplements, and online “experts.” You'll hear real talk about pet food recalls, dangerous drugs still on the market, unregulated supplements, and the rise of under-trained “holistic” practitioners. Most importantly, Angela and Kelly share practical ways to vet potential vets and coaches, read labels, build a trustworthy holistic team, and step fully into your role as your pet's primary advocate.Episode Recap:Angela starts by defining what holistic truly means: treating the whole being, addressing root causes, and supporting the body's natural ability to heal. (00:00)Kelly shares her dog Duncan's story, how her healthy service dog suddenly became critically ill and died after eating contaminated Hill's Science Diet dog food, and realizing how little these companies care about our pets, after Hill's offered her $10 in coupons as recompense for killing her dog. (02:34)She explains how Duncan's death led her to join a class action lawsuit against Hill's and launch the Saving Pets One Pet at a Time Facebook group, which grew rapidly as thousands of grieving or worried pet parents reached out. (05:04)Angela and Kelly talk about the guilt of blindly following conventional vet advice, from prescription food, flea/tick meds, heartworm drugs, to constant vaccines, and why they now refuse to hand over full control again. (06:58)Angela calls out the explosion of inexperienced “certified” holistic pet coaches and pet nutritionists, many with less than 30 hours of training, yet charging hundreds of dollars per consult. (10:00)They outline red flags in “holistic” vet clinics, like pharma posters, prescription diets, annual vaccine postcards, and automatic chemical preventatives. Plus practical tips for vetting your vet: from visiting clinics in advance and asking the right questions, to being willing to drive or use telehealth to work with a truly holistic vet. (16:43)Angela and Kelly talk about the shocking lack of consequences when pet food companies harm or even kill thousands of pets, who are seen as merely property, and misleading pet food labels and supplements, warning about companies changing ingredients for profit, many with long lists of synthetic vitamins, fillers, and “other ingredients.” (22:21)Why long ingredient lists are a red flag and why nutrients should primarily come from real, whole foods rather than isolates sprinkled on top. (27:12)They discuss influencers who suddenly flip from promoting raw feeding to pushing kibble and prescription diets, and why pet parents should always follow the money and check for sponsorships. (30:10)Kelly shares about the 175,000 pet parents looking for help in her Facebook group, Saving Pets One Pet at a Time, many joining after their pets get sick because of commercial pet food, and why saving money by feeding your dog cheap kibble often leads to bigger vet bills later, plus ways to “freshen the bowl” on a budget.

In this episode of Tank Talks, host Matt Cohen sits down with Chris Canavan, founder and general manager of Canavan Private Wealth, to unpack one of the most confusing and emotionally charged chapters in a founder's journey: life after the liquidity event.Chris brings thirty years of global institutional and private office experience to the table, but his superpower is not managing money. It is designing and running the system around a founder's wealth. After watching countless entrepreneurs exit their companies only to be overwhelmed by advisors, decisions, documents, and emotional pressure, Chris built a model that restores clarity, control, and purpose.He explains how founders lose sight of their instincts amid a fire hose of new advisors promising the world, why trust erodes so quickly after a deal closes, and how fragmented systems lead to panic, confusion, and poor decisions. Chris breaks down the architecture of a modern private office, why most founders rely on sticky notes and spreadsheets, and how his closed-loop operational model gives founders their time back.From early warning signs of wealth fragmentation, to the psychological crash founders face when purpose suddenly disappears, to his triage process for investment opportunities, Chris delivers a brutally honest guide to navigating life after the big exit.Whether you are preparing for a liquidity event or already living through the post-sale fog, this episode shows you what founders get wrong, what they must put in place, and how to build a system that supports your next chapter rather than suffocates it.Spotting the Gaps: Managing the System, Not the Money (03:38)* How advisory silos fail ultra-high net worth individuals* Why communication, not talent, is the biggest weakness in wealth management* The role of the generalist who understands every silo deeply enough to connect them* Why founders need someone three to seven feet deep across all disciplinesFinding the Right Clients and Building Trust-Based Relationships (07:06)* Why fit, values, and authenticity matter more than money* How Chris screens clients who actually want to be helped* Why some founders treat advisors like commodities and how that destroys outcomes* Building long-lasting relationships built on accountability and transparencyManaging Founder Emotions and Behaviors Post-Exit (09:00)* Founders are used to speed, scale, and instant execution* Why slowing down is the hardest adjustment* How Chris handles frustration, urgency, and emotional volatility* The importance of respect and boundaries when multiple advisors and egos collideEarly Warning Signs of Wealth Fragmentation (16:21)* When day-to-day tasks start consuming founder's mental bandwidth* The “black flies in cottage country” analogy* Why founders lose the ability to focus on what matters* The fire hose of advisors and opportunities after an exitHow Chris Evaluates Investment Opportunities for Clients (25:09)* Pain reliever vs. gain creator: the framework for evaluating pitches* Why relationships and trust matter more than projected returns* How Chris filters noise before presenting anything to a founder* The story-first, numbers-second diligence processThe Psychological Crash After a Big Exit (28:17)* Why life will never be the same after selling a company* How society begins to define founders by the name of their exit* The loneliness and loss of identity that shock new millionaires* Why every human needs a sense of purpose to avoid emotional collapseBecoming a Project Manager of Your Own Life (31:45)* Why successful entrepreneurs struggle when their team disappears* Trust-building, listening, and meeting founders where they areHow Chris transitions from advisor to integratorWhy trust cannot be demanded, only earned over timeAdvice for Founders Preparing for an Exit (36:48)* Why founders must build structure before signing final documents* The danger of early engagement with performance-focused advisors* Why founders need an unconflicted advisory boardHow to breathe, slow down, and avoid urgency-driven decisionsThe Future of Private Wealth for Canadian Founders (40:10)* Why founders will disrupt the private office industry* The coming shift from advice to execution* How operational efficiency will redefine wealth managemen* The democratization of systems once reserved for legacy familiesAbout Chris CanavanChris Canavan is the founder and General Manager of Canavan Private Wealth, a private office that provides institutional discipline and operational clarity to ultra-high-net-worth individuals.

Aaron drops the mic with a jailhouse tale involving littering (yes, really), an angry Ohio cop, and a court date just days before shipping to Lackland. They torch the idea of stolen valor and the performative milfluencer scene, and Trent calls out the “no true Scotsman” nonsense that infects veteran one-upmanship.Oh, and they both agree: if you're using “retired” to feel better than someone with a med board—get over yourself. This one's packed with spicy opinions, war room gossip, and just enough UFC banter to keep your BMF belt warm.

High-achieving, intuitive leaders don't lack drive—they lack safety to let things be easy. In this episode, Brenda unpacks why ease can feel unsafe in a nervous system wired for hustle, how to recognize fight/flight/freeze/fawn in real time, and simple practices to reconnect with your intuition and spiritual team (guides, angels, ancestors). You'll learn how to retrain your body so ease becomes your baseline—and why that makes you clearer, calmer, and more magnetic in leadership, business, and life.

In this episode of Just Another Tin Foil Hat with Zelia Edgar, we uncover one of the most extraordinary UFO cases in Midwestern history. On a quiet night in Elmwood, Wisconsin, police officer George Wheeler was on routine patrol when something incredible interrupted the calm. Spotting an orange glow near the Tuttle Hill quarry, Wheeler assumed it was a fire — until he got closer. What he saw would shake him to his core. As he reached higher ground, his voice crackled over the radio with a chilling message: “My God, it's one of those UFOs again.” This episode dives deep into the 1976 Elmwood UFO incident — a case that baffled law enforcement, captivated local residents, and left behind strange physical evidence that remains unexplained to this day. From Wheeler's first sighting to the aftermath that turned Elmwood into a UFO hotspot, Zelia explores how one man's encounter helped shape Wisconsin's lasting fascination with the unknown.

The best B2B brands don't just tell a story. They live it across every team, channel, and touchpoint.  But how do you get everyone aligned — from sales to customer success — without the story getting lost in translation (or buried in features)?  That question sits at the center of this conversation, as Drew talks with Marca Armstrong (Sensera Systems) and Caitlin Cassady (Beyond) about how to build a team of company-wide storytellers. From capturing customer language to coaching teams on how to use it, they reveal how to make your story stick—and scale. In this episode:  Marca starts with a simple headline story ("build with confidence") and ensures it shows up consistently in every GTM motion.  Caitlin turns real customer stories into marketing fuel, using a "so what?" filter to connect features to real outcomes.  Together, they treat storytelling as everyone's job, so marketing, sales, and CX all carry the same story.  Plus:  Measuring story-led work vs. feature blasts  Spotting what moves pipeline  Keeping language sharp so customer phrasing shows up in deals  Making storytelling a team sport across the company If you want a story your customers instantly recognize—no matter who they talk to—this episode gives you the moves to make it happen.  For full show notes and transcripts, visit https://renegademarketing.com/podcasts/ To learn more about CMO Huddles, visit https://cmohuddles.com/

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian reflect on why the Robertsons have always leaned into sometimes crude humor, especially around the dinner table. The guys explore how the graphic nature of certain parts of the Bible lends itself to a real, rich texture of humanity.

In this episode of Tea with GaryVee 91, I talk about why most people already know what to do — they just don't want to put in the work. We break down the importance of discipline, how to spot cultural trends early, and why judging yourself for how you handle adversity only slows you down.
