We're just days away from a brand new year, and there's one leadership skill that will define your momentum in 2026: turning vision into structure. In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I walk you through how to go beyond inspiring language and build a vision your team and your recruits can actually believe in. If you've ever felt like your vision gets lost or fades after January, this will show you how to make it stick; with structure, ownership, and real action steps. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Welcome & Setup – It's almost New Year's Eve, which means you're probably reflecting on what you built and casting vision for what's next [01:00] Why Most Vision Fades – Leaders share big ideas in December, but they don't connect it to structure, behavior, or execution [02:00] Step 1: Define the Destination – What would be true by the end of 2026 if your vision came to life? Culture, structure, experience, leadership [02:45] Step 2: Break It Into Pillars – Group your goals into clear themes: leadership development, recruiting, systems, team structure, brand, etc. [03:00] Step 3: Start Small and Assign Ownership – What's one thing you can move forward in January? Assign a name and a timeline [03:45] Step 4: Communicate Often – The biggest mistake is thinking people will remember your vision after hearing it once. Repetition builds belief [04:30] Step 5: Connect Systems to Your Story – Don't just post wins or numbers. Let your systems and your social content reflect where you're going [05:00] Final Challenge – Do this before midnight on New Year's Eve: Write down your 2026 vision Name 3 pillars that support it Identify 1 action step for the first week of January [05:30] The Real Goal – Your vision doesn't need to be perfect. It needs to be anchored in what matters to you and repeated with consistency [06:00] Wrap-Up – When your team knows where you're going and how you're getting there, recruiting becomes magnetic. Happy New Year Key Takeaways Vision Without Structure Fades – Most leaders talk about the future but don't build a roadmap to get there Start With the End in Mind – Get crystal clear on what success actually looks like 12 months from now Use Pillars to Organize the Chaos – Categorizing your goals helps you make progress in focused areas Assign Ownership and Set Timelines – Even the smallest next step brings your vision to life Repetition Builds Belief – Say your vision often enough that your team starts to echo it back to you This isn't about perfection. It's about clarity, consistency, and commitment. When your vision becomes a roadmap, people don't just hear it. They believe it. And when they believe it, they follow you into 2026 with trust.

Most guys don't realize how fast their hormones can derail their energy, mindset, and marriage until it hits them.In this episode, Josh Whalen opens up about the slow slide so many men experience: the weight gain, the loss of drive, the burnout, and the hidden fear of becoming someone they no longer recognize. We unpack why traditional healthcare keeps telling men they're “normal” —even when they feel anything but—and how mismanaged hormones can affect everything from motivation to marriage. Josh shares the moment everything fractured; his health, his identity, and nearly his relationship and the long climb back using hormone optimization, peptides, and real lifestyle change. We also break down the growing world of men's and women's longevity care, how to find credible practitioners, and the patterns we see in midlife clients who finally decide to take control.If you've been feeling slower, heavier, or just “off,” this episode might be the wake-up call you've been avoiding.

If you've ever struggled to keep up with your self-care, this podcast is for you. Explore how to make self-kindness simple, sustainable, and genuinely nourishing—one tiny step at a time.Start Small, Stay Kind: The Art of Gentle Self-CareLet's be honest: sometimes self-care sounds like another item on the ever-growing to-do list. But what if you let yourself off the hook? What if you started so small that it felt almost effortless? Imagine celebrating putting on your shoes—never mind running the marathon.That's the spirit I want you to bring to your self-care practice. It's not about grand gestures or perfect routines. It's about noticing the little things, and showing yourself a bit of kindness, even (especially!) when you're feeling stuck.Want some help?We've all been there—beyond exhausted. If you'd like help with an energetic reboot, book a session now through the Jane app or look through our courses and sessions to learn more about how we can help you reactivate your self-care routinesYour Life Runs on TracksThink about your everyday routines. You probably sleep on the same side of the bed, drink your coffee the same way, and set up your day with familiar little rituals. Our bodies and minds move in these well-worn tracks, and there's comfort in that. But what happens when there's friction—when the path isn't clear?Imagine if, every night, you had to move all your furniture just to get into bed. Suddenly, bedtime becomes a Herculean task. That's what it's like when you load up your self-care practice with obstacles, or tell yourself you have to “make up” for lost time by doubling your efforts. That's a recipe for shame and exhaustion, not healing.Celebrate the StartHere's a radical idea: reward yourself just for starting. Give yourself a metaphorical sticker for beginning your meditation, not for reaching some blissful state. Take the pressure off. The hardest part of any practice is showing up, so let that be your win.If you haven't worked out in a week, you don't need to punish yourself with an extra-long gym session. Just put on your sneakers. Just drive to the gym. Let that be enough. Friction is the enemy, so design your routines to be as downhill as possible. Pack your gym bag and leave it in the car. Create a meditation nook that's inviting, not cluttered.Remove the ResistanceIf your meditation cushion is buried under laundry, you're not going to use it. That's not a failure—it's just a sign to make your practice easier. Be curious, not judgmental. Didn't meditate today? Instead of beating yourself up, ask: “What tiny shift could help tomorrow?” Maybe you meditate lying down instead of sitting. Maybe you wait until the kids are asleep. Maybe your self-care looks like two mindful sips of tea, or doodling on a scrap of paper.Plug Yourself InWe all remember to charge our phones. What if you used plugging in your device as a cue to check in with yourself? What would recharge you right now? Is it a moment with your favourite crystal, a mindful walk, or a page of a beloved book? Layer these micro-moments throughout your day. Change your sheets. Light a candle. Sip something warm. Each act of care, no matter how small, builds a resilient safety net for when life gets messy.Weave Self-Care Into Everyday LifeDon't wait for perfect circumstances to practice self-care. Seize the in-between moments: a red light, a line at the store, five quiet minutes during naptime. Ground yourself when chaos erupts because then your calm helps those around you, too. Notice beauty in the ordinary: sunlight on the wall, birds outside your window, the changing moon. Let these be invitations to return to yourself.The Power Is in ReturningYou will fall away from your practice. That's not failure, that's life. The magic is in returning, gently, again and again. Every time you come back, you strengthen your resilience. Every slip reminds you what truly matters.So, start small. Remove the friction. Celebrate every return. Give yourself more grace than you think you need. You're doing more than you realize, and it all counts. Keep weaving those moments of care into your days—you've got this.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

226: How do you turn a daydream into a life? Tricia Leach has been doing exactly that for the past decade. What began as a bold leap into full-time RV living became a family adventure that took Trish, her husband, and their kids through all 50 states and beyond—stories they've shared with a worldwide following through their beloved YouTube channel, Keep Your Daydream.But the journey didn't stop at the state lines. Along the way, Trish launched her own line of spice blends and published two cookbooks (including her newest, Tastes of the States). Now, she and her husband are dreaming even bigger: they've purchased a property that will soon become the Daydream Depot café, opening its doors in 2027.This episode dives into how curiosity, courage, and a willingness to start small can turn an ordinary life into an extraordinary one.Register for Nadine's Micro Memoir course on Jan 15!About Trish:Tricia Leach is the co-creator of Keep Your Daydream, a travel-and-lifestyle brand inspiring millions to chase adventure.

In this special bonus episode of How to Study the Bible, author and podcaster Carol McLeod joins Nicole to talk about falling in love with Scripture, walking with the Holy Spirit, and staying faithful in every season. From early-morning verse memory at her kitchen table, to decades of quiet service before writing her twentieth book, Carol reminds us that small beginnings matter. “His presence is all the preparation you need.” She shares a striking insight from Mark 5/Luke 8—linking a 12-year illness and a 12-year-old girl—and offers a tender word for anyone hurting this Christmas: Jesus came to carry your griefs. "Christmas is especially for you if you’re hurting; Jesus came to carry your griefs.” What We Discuss: Model > mandate: Carol fell in love with Scripture because her dad lived it and invited her into his early-morning Bible time with intentional verse memory. Start small & be faithful: Ministry often begins with a handful of people—dorm devos, a living-room group—long before books and microphones. His presence prepares us: You can plan, but ultimately “His presence is all the preparation you need” when you teach or serve. A double 12: A fresh reading of Mark 5/Luke 8 (woman hemorrhaging 12 years; Jairus’ daughter aged 12) calls us to care for both women with wounds and the next generation of girls who need Jesus. Christmas is for the brokenhearted: Christ came not only to bear our sins but also to carry our griefs—especially good news for a hard holiday season. Bible Verse References (linked) Lamentations 3:22–23 — His mercies are new every morning. Mark 5:21–43 / Luke 8:40–56 — Jairus’ daughter & the woman with the issue of blood (“Talitha koum”). Isaiah 53:4 — He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows. Want More? Subscribe to How to Study the Bible and leave a rating/review to help others find the show.

Scrappy ABM brings together host Mason Cosby and Yadin Porter de León, Director of Customer Stories and thought leadership over at Heroku, which is a part of Salesforce, to talk about going straight to the top of your target accounts without getting blacklisted.ㅤInstead of getting stuck in email blasts and third-party events that promise “rubbing elbows” with executives, Yadin shares a high-level framework that starts small with relationships your own C-suite already has, then builds proof points through web stories, webinars, podcasts, and thought leadership videos. The conversation walks through going top down from your CEO and bottoms up from directors and senior managers, doing the hard “eat your vegetables” work of segmentation, and mapping LinkedIn so you make it easy for leaders to say yes.ㅤThrough stories from Angel Med Flight, JetBlue, GE Healthcare, NASA Jet Propulsion Labs, Wells Fargo, Michael Dell, and a seven-figure deal, Mason and Yadin show how time and trust, podcasts, and truly helping individuals with their own goals can turn a focused ABM program into a powerful path to the C-suite.ㅤ

Scrappy targeting, small segments, and extreme empathy for the audience sit at the center of this conversation on Scrappy ABM. Host Mason Cosby sits down with Tyler Lessard, CMO at Technology Advice, to move from a broad “B2B marketing leaders or demand gen leaders” ICP to focused clusters of accounts where the team can win day after day.ㅤTyler walks through breaking a market into specific industry subsegments like cybersecurity software vendors and HR tech vendors, backing those choices with win rates, average deal size, and field-level sales feedback. The discussion follows how in-person activations at industry conferences, niche newsletters, and original buyer insights research become “reasons to reach out” for sales and SDR teams. Along the way, Mason and Tyler highlight small, specific ABM programs with one rep and a handful of target accounts, measuring success by whether the right people at the right accounts show up, engage, ask questions, and move into real conversations.ㅤ

Okay, we are pretty good storytellers... but are we telling the right story?As service design professionals, we nail it when it comes to what I call "Horizontal Storytelling". We can walk anyone through the customer journey, step-by-step, building empathy for the user's pain and frustration over time.But here is the somewhat inconvenient truth: As you might have experienced, your CEO or CFO often doesn't know what to do with that story. They are looking for something else. They need "Vertical Storytelling".They need to know how a specific pain point on the ground connects up to the strategic objectives of the business.

NOV. 25, 2025Start small, and keep a winning attitude. "Do not despise...small beginnings." Zec 4:10 NLTJuan grew up in Puerto Rico, the son of a sugarcane plantation foreman. One of a family of eight, he lived in a three-room shack with a dirt floor and no toilet. His first job, at age six, was driving oxen to plow the cane fields. He worked eight hours a day and earned one dollar. Juan said it was in the cane fields that he learned important lessons like being on time, work hard, and be loyal and respectful to your employers. His job and small income were a great source of self-esteem. At age seven he got a job at a golf course spotting balls for golfers, and he began to dream of playing golf and earning enough money to buy a bicycle. The more he dreamed, the more he thought, "Why not?" He made a golf club out of a guava limb and a piece of pipe, then hammered an empty tin can into a ball. Next, he dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth between them. He practiced his "golf" with the same intensity he put into his job in the cane field, and he got good-very good. In his thirty-one years as a pro golfer, Juan "Chi Chi" Rodríguez won eight PGA tour events and twenty-four major tournaments, and he was the first Puerto Rican to be inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame.What can we learn from him? Two things: (1) Be willing to start small. The Bible says, "Do not despise...small beginnings." (2) Be willing to think big because you serve a big God (See Eph 3:20).Start small, and keep a winning attitude Be willing to think big.Share This DevotionalSend us a textSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

This message challenges us to examine where our treasure truly lies and whether God holds the preeminent place in every area of our lives. Drawing from Matthew 6:21, we're reminded that where our treasure is, there our heart will be also. The sermon walks us through the biblical foundation of generosity, starting with Cain and Abel's offerings in Genesis, where we see that God desires our first and best, not our leftovers. Abel brought the firstborn of his flock in faith, while Cain brought what remained after the harvest. This principle echoes throughout Scripture: God gave first, loved first, and came first. Through Abraham's encounter with Melchizedek and the Old Testament practice of tithing, we see a consistent theme that giving isn't about God needing our resources, but about our hearts being aligned with His. The most powerful insight comes from recognizing that we are merely stewards of what belongs to God anyway. As Psalm 24:1 declares, the earth is the Lord's and everything in it. When we grasp that every breath we take, every dollar we earn, and every blessing we receive comes from Him, giving becomes an act of worship and gratitude rather than obligation. The question isn't whether God needs our money, but whether we trust Him enough to put Him first in all things.**Sermon Notes:****Introduction:**- Pastor Rick introduces himself and mentions the church's journey through the book of Romans.- He shares an impactful experience from a conference in Jacksonville, Florida, led by Pastor Joby Martin and Church of 1122.**Main Themes:**- **Culture of Generosity:** Pastor Rick felt corrected and inspired regarding his approach to giving.- **Importance of Giving:** Emphasis on giving as a reflection of gratitude and faith rather than obligation.**Key Scriptures:**- **Colossians 1:15-18:** Jesus is the image of the invisible God, preeminent in all things, emphasizing His centrality.- **Psalm 24:1:** Everything belongs to God; all creation and ownership are His.- **Matthew 6:19-21:** Storing treasures in heaven; where your treasure is, there your heart will be.- **1 Timothy 6:6-10:** Warning against the love of money and its destructive potential.**Principles of Giving:**- God wants the first and best of what we have as a demonstration of our faith, not leftovers (Genesis 4: Cain and Abel).- The story of Abraham and Melchizedek (Genesis 14) as an example of purposeful giving.- **Old Testament Tithe:** Explained as giving the first 10% of one's earnings for the support of the temple and community (Malachi 3).**New Testament Insights:**- **Matthew 23:23:** Jesus acknowledges the importance of tithing but prioritizes justice, mercy, and faith.- **New Testament Giving Principles (1 Corinthians 16):** Giving should be periodic, personal, planned, proportionate, and plentiful.**Pastor Rick's Personal Reflection:**- Rick shares his own journey in understanding and practicing generosity, emphasizing obedience and faithfulness in giving.**Conclusion:**- The ultimate model of giving is Jesus, who gave everything for humanity, prompting us to mirror that generosity in our lives.**Practical Applications:**1. **Evaluate Priorities:** Reflect on where your financial resources go, as it indicates where your heart truly lies.2. **Plan Your Giving:** Set a regular time to tithe or give, ensuring it is a thoughtful and purposeful act, not an afterthought.3. **Start Small if Necessary:** If a full tithe is daunting, begin with a smaller, consistent amount, and increase as your faith grows.4. **Teach Generosity:** Share the principle of giving with your family, emphasizing its importance and spiritual basis.**Discussion Questions:**1. How does recognizing God's ownership of everything change your perspective on your resources?2. In what ways can you ensure that your giving is from a place of gratitude and not obligation?3. Reflect on the principle "Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." What does this reveal about your current heart posture?4. What steps can you take to make Jesus preeminent in all areas of your life, including your finances?5. Share a personal experience where you felt called to give. What was the impact of your obedience?By exploring these concepts, the sermon encourages personal reflection and practical steps toward embodying a culture of generosity in personal and community life.

Ever seen a kid turn a hobby into something you can touch, wear, or play? We sit down with two creators who prove that tiny steps can transform into big wins. First, Rochel Tzivia walks us through her sewing journey—from learning to thread a bobbin to designing and stitching her own Bas Mitzvah dress. She shares smart alteration tricks, how to rescue a too-short dress with a new tier, and why a dedicated sewing nook under the stairs changed everything. Along the way, she honors her great-grandmother's seamstress legacy and reminds us that the real craft is patience: pin, cut, sew, unpick, breathe, repeat.Then we meet Rafael, the ten-year-old cofounder of Mentsch Cards, a mitzvah trading card game you can find in Judaica shops and online. He breaks down how each card teaches a single mitzvah with fun facts and gameplay stats, how silver and gold cards work, and why you have to complete five real-life tasks to earn that shiny gold. Behind the scenes, he and his father researched Sefer HaChinuch and Rambam, hired an illustrator, found a factory, and partnered with a distributor—real product steps, kid-level heart. With 27 stores on board and plans for new languages, he's building a brand that turns collecting into character.What ties these stories together is a simple truth: small actions compound. A custom hem boosts confidence. A card pack nudges kindness at home. If you've got an idea, make the first version for yourself. Set up your space so starting is easy, share your progress, and let momentum grow. We're celebrating kids who finish what they start—and inviting you to do the same.If this inspired you, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review. Your support helps us spotlight more incredible kids—and might be the nudge another young creator needs to begin.Support the show

On May 14, 2025, I presented live on the topic of subscription-based legal services to Shaun Jardine's Value Based Pricing Colony. Here are the top 5 takeaways:1. Start Small with Subscription Models: Law firms interested in moving to a subscription-based pricing model should begin with a pilot program in one practice area, targeting loyal clients and documenting results to build internal support.2. Value Over Time Tracking: The shift from billable hours to subscription or value-based pricing requires a mindset change—focus on the value delivered, not the time spent. This benefits both clients (predictability) and lawyers (better relationships, less stress).3. Tiered Service Packages and Scope Management: Successful subscription models often use tiered packages (e.g., bronze, silver, gold) with clear boundaries. It's important to positively reinforce clients who need more and move them up tiers, rather than penalizing them.4. Not All Clients or Practice Areas Are Equal: Subscription models may not fit every client or practice area, but with thoughtful segmentation and pricing, firms can attract ideal clients and avoid unprofitable work. It's okay—and often necessary—to turn away difficult or low-value clients.5. Market Opportunity and Innovation: There is a huge, underserved “latent legal market” of people and businesses who need legal help but can't afford traditional hourly rates. Subscription and alternative pricing models, supported by technology and automation, can unlock this market and drive innovation in legal services.__________________________Learn more about Shaun Jardine's Value Based Pricing Colony.Sign up for Paxton, my all-in-one AI legal assistant, helping me with legal research, analysis, drafting, and enhancing existing legal work product.Here's a link to purchase lifetime access to the recordings of My Shingle's AI Teach-In if you couldn't make it live.I've partnered with Pii to make it easy for you to purchase the hardware I use in my law firm: (1) Studio Setup; (2) Midrange Setup; (3) Highrange Setup.Get Connected with SixFifty⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, a business and employment legal document automation tool.Sign up for ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Gavel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, an automation platform for law firms.Check out my other show, the Law for Kids Podcast.Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Law Subscribed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to subscribe to the weekly newsletter to listen from your web browser.Prefer monthly updates?

Whether you're leading a parish, a ministry, or just trying to follow Jesus more closely, I want to encourage you: don't wait for perfect. Start small.

After a jam-packed few weeks onboarding clients and juggling a major project, Robert & Kay Lee get real about a message every married entrepreneur needs to hear: "Hustle now, rest later" is a myth that steals joy, strains marriages, and sabotages long-term business value. In this candid conversation, they unpack why constant grind doesn't equal greater achievement—and how to build a business that grows and lets you enjoy life with your spouse now, not "someday." You'll hear how choosing family over finance actually creates a stronger company: better culture, lower turnover, healthier leadership, and a business people would want to buy or inherit. They share practical first steps to break the cycle—like taking intentional time off (even half-days), setting clear boundaries between work and home, and building trust in your team so the business can run without you. The goal? A sellable, scalable, legacy business that supports your marriage rather than competing with it. If you've ever thought, "I'll rest when I'm dead," this episode is your gentle (but firm) reset. Learn how to pace your ambition, protect your relationship, and design systems and team capacity that free your time. You can grow profits and deepen connection—without grinding yourself or your marriage into the ground. Want to live a better balanced life and win in marriage AND business at the same time?

Schedule a free discovery call. https://marriedentrepreneur.co/lets-talk Key Takeaways Hustle ≠ Happiness: Achievement alone won't deliver lasting joy; healthy relationships and rhythms do. Family Over Finance: Prioritizing marriage and home life strengthens culture, performance, and retention. Design for Exit (or Freedom): Build a business that runs and grows without you—making it sellable, transferable, and actually attractive to the next owner or your kids. Start Small, Start Now: If a full day off feels impossible, begin with a half-day or device-free evening; build the "time-off muscle." Boundaries Create Balance: Define when business ends and family begins so work doesn't invade every conversation and moment. Delegate & Trust: Train (or replace) where needed so you can disconnect without fear—the house won't burn down. Burnout Hits Early: Even under-40 owners are burning out; prevention beats recovery every time.

What does it really mean to do more good—and how can empathy spark genuine impact in our everyday lives? In this heartfelt episode of The Legendary Leaders Podcast, Cathleen O'Sullivan sits down with Neil Ghosh, social impact strategist, entrepreneur, and bestselling author of Do More Good, a book featuring voices from global icons like the Dalai Lama and Bill Clinton to everyday changemakers making a difference in their own communities. With over three decades of experience across 50+ countries and sectors, Neil has devoted his career to one question: How can we do more good together? From his childhood lessons in empathy growing up in Calcutta to his work uniting governments, businesses, and nonprofits, Neil reveals how compassion, courage, and curiosity can transform both our lives and the world around us. Together, Cathleen and Neil explore the framework behind his philosophy: GEMSS (Get Involved, Empower Others, Micro-Philanthropy, Show Up, Start Small) and why doing good doesn't always require money or grand gestures. They also discuss the importance of listening to empathy's whisper amid life's noise, leading with authenticity, raising the next generation with kindness, and finding purpose through action. This is a moving conversation about humanity, leadership, and how one small act of good can multiply far beyond what we imagine.   Episode Timeline: 00:00 Welcome & introduction: redefining what it means to “do more good” 01:21 Meet Neil Ghosh: author, strategist, and global changemaker 03:45 Growing up in Calcutta: limited resources, unlimited empathy 06:31 The roots of Do More Good: stories that spark hope and courage 09:19 From awareness to action: turning empathy into engagement 11:23 The GEMSS framework for everyday impact 13:52 Moving from reactive to proactive living 17:07 The power of quiet: retreats, recharge, and self-empathy 19:30 Parenting and passing on empathy to the next generation 25:15 Leadership through compassion—even after personal challenges 29:28 Career pivots: from private sector to purpose-driven impact 34:11 When purpose calls louder than comfort 37:49 Authenticity, reinvention, and living a values-led life 42:00 Why helping others might just be the secret to happiness 46:32 The multiplier effect of kindness in communities 50:20 Lessons in empathy from neighbors, colleagues, and everyday life 55:40 Leading with empathy in organizations and business 57:00 The leaders who inspire Neil—and what true empathy looks like 01:05:25 Speaking up with courage (and when silence serves the mission) 01:12:01 Channeling anger into purpose: uniting through empathy 01:14:25 Final reflections: start small, stay consistent, and listen to empathy's whisper     Key Takeaways: Doing good doesn't require wealth or influence—just intention. Begin with one act of kindness and let it ripple. Far from being “soft,” empathy is a strategic power for resilience, leadership, and unity. GEMSS Framework: Get involved, empower others, practice micro-philanthropy, show up, and start small. Tune out the noise of division and distraction to hear empathy's quiet call to action. Whether in parenting or leadership, people learn more from what we do than what we say. Growth is about becoming a better version of yourself—again and again.   About Neil Ghosh: Neil Ghosh is a social impact strategist, entrepreneur, and author dedicated to amplifying empathy as a force for good. His book Do More Good—featuring stories from the Dalai Lama, Kevin Bacon, and everyday heroes—has become a #1 Amazon bestseller, inspiring individuals and organizations to lead with compassion. Over his 30-year career spanning 50 countries, Neil has worked across government, corporate, and nonprofit sectors, building bridges through purpose-driven initiatives.

Start Small, Do Something | A Conversation with Corinne Grimaldi

We are about to drop some wisdom today! It's amazing how much you learn over two and half decades of life. For today's episode, I was reflecting on 25-years in the brick & mortar space and the many lessons I've learned in the fitness, coaching, sports, and business world and woah…I came up with a lot. These lessons are hard-fought, soul-earned wisdom that life, business, and faith have taught me over a quarter century in the trenches. Today, I'm sharing 10 of my 25+ lessons learned over 25 years. Some will hit quick and sharp. Others will go deep. But each one is designed to help you reflect, refocus, and reignite as you write your own next chapter. I'm hoping at least 1, 2, or 3 of these really resonate deeply with you and where you are at in your journey of life. Let's dive into my first 10-Lessons (and some of the crazy stories) I want to share with you on today's episode: LESSON #1: YOU GOTTA START. LESSON #2: BE THE MOST POSITIVE PERSON YOU KNOW. LESSON #3: LOSSES REMIND YOU OF THE FRAGILITY OF LIFE. LESSON #4: IF THERE'S A FORK IN THE ROAD, TAKE IT. LESSON #5: WHEN YOU'RE MAKING FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS, YOUR REVENUES ARE OFTEN HALF OF WHAT YOU PROJECT…AND YOUR EXPENSES ARE OFTEN DOUBLE. LESSON #6: DREAM BIG, START SMALL, AND WORK YOUR BUTT OFF. LESSON #7: TAKE RISKS, DON'T BE AFRAID TO FAIL, AND USE FEAR AS FUEL. LESSON #8: WALKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MESS IS UNCOMFORTABLE. LESSON #9: THERE IS NOTHING LIKE LIVE EVENTS. LESSON #10: PRIORITIZE FAMILY. These are the first 10 of my 25+ lessons in 25 years. Which one hit you the hardest? Which one speaks to your soul right now? Which one resonated deepest? Screenshot it, share it on your social media, and tag me — I want to know what lesson is driving your next chapter. Also, if this episode spoke to you, please share it forward. Send it to a friend, teammate, colleague, or fellow leader who's writing their own next chapter and needs some encouragement today. Or post it to your story, tag me, and let's celebrate the growth together.

If you've ever wondered how much you can (or should) take from your business—or why your bank account doesn't always feel as full as your profits say it should—this episode is for you!Glenn Harper and Julie Smith tackle a classic challenge faced by business owners—how do you actually pay yourself as an entrepreneur? Drawing inspiration from a recent lively dinner debate, Glenn and Julie talk about the difference between taking a draw versus running payroll, why cash flow discipline is crucial in those early ramen-noodle days, and the surprising tax realities every entrepreneur needs to understand. From the myth that business owners can “just take out whatever they want” to the essential 50% savings rule, this episode delivers practical advice on managing your money, setting boundaries, and knowing when—and how much—you should pay yourself. Additionally, they'll discuss why having a trusted advisor is important and preview upcoming deep dives into business structures and tax strategy. This episode is brought to you by PureTax, LLC. Tax preparation services without the pressure. When all you need is to get your tax return done, take the stress out of tax season by working with a firm that has simplified the process and the pricing. Find out more about how we started.Key Takeaways from the Episode:1. Don't Chase the Shiny Object (a.k.a. All That Cash in Your Business Account). It's tempting to pay yourself whatever's in the bank, but Glenn reminds us: “The more money you take out… the less money you have for the bad times or to invest back in your company.” Start by leaving enough cash cushion in your business to weather tough times and fund growth.2. Start Small, Think Big. When your business is getting off the ground, think like you're back in college—keep expenses lean and take only what you truly need. As Glenn puts it, “Pretend like you're back in college, eating ramen noodles and you can't take any money out.” Let your business account grow before ramping up payouts.3. Draws, Payroll, and the 50% Rule. If you're a sole proprietor or single-member LLC, you'll usually take draws (withdrawals) instead of payroll at first. But as your income grows (think $80k+), it might be more tax-efficient to become an S corp and start using payroll.Running a business doesn't have to run your life.Without a business partner who holds you accountable, it's easy to be so busy ‘doing' business that you don't have the right strategy to grow your business.Stop letting your business run you.

Have a listen to this episode of the Life and Listings podcast as Jennifer Staats breaks down how to plan and host yearly community or sphere-of-influence events without the stress. From seasonal gatherings like Easter egg hunts and holiday parties to practical and cost-effective ideas such as shredding days, supply drives, and safety workshops, you'll learn how to create repeatable systems, track ROI, and maximize engagement. Jennifer also shares a free downloadable playbook packed with templates and SOPs to help you run smooth, budget-friendly, and impactful events year after year. Don't miss this episode filled with actionable strategies to make your events more effective and rewarding.   “After that event wraps up, I want you to pause and I want you to reflect on what worked and what didn't. So you can repeat that if it really worked. You can repeat these over and over again, and these events are going to become more effective, less costly, and you're going to get a higher return on investment.”   Check out these highlights from the discussion: Plan for Repeatability – When hosting an event, design it with the intention of repeating it yearly. Systems, templates, and documentation make it easier, more cost-effective, and more impactful over time. Start Small with Anchor Events – Focus on one to four recurring anchor events each year, such as seasonal celebrations, family-oriented activities, or community-based gatherings, to build consistency and engagement. Engagement Over Expense – Choose events that allow genuine interaction (e.g., barbecues, outdoor movies, safety workshops, or pet contests) rather than focusing on large budgets. Track Budget and ROI – Always record expenses, attendance, and outcomes. Tracking allows you to evaluate success, cut costs in future years, and measure the return on investment. Use Checklists and SOPs – Create a standardized checklist and document your processes (e.g., vendors, supplies, logistics) to streamline event planning and avoid repetitive mistakes. Reflect and Optimize – After each event, assess what worked and what didn't. Apply these insights to refine future events, making them easier to run, more effective, and more rewarding.

Have you ever thought, “I don't even know what would be restorative right now”? You're not alone. In fact, nearly 60% of women report spending no time on self-care most days, leaving them depleted and unsure how to fill their own tank. In this episode 155 of Medium Lady Talks, I share a practical way to bridge the gap between knowing you're exhausted and actually choosing something restorative. Building on Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith's 7 Types of Rest, I introduce my simplified BEMS framework, four buckets you can reach for when you're too tired to think clearly: Body (hydrate, stretch, nap, walk) Emotions (cry, laugh, connect with someone safe) Mind (phone break, music, doodle, brain dump) Senses (dim the lights, light a candle, step outside) You'll hear why decision fatigue makes it so hard to choose rest, what the latest research tells us about the decline in maternal mental health, and how invisible labor and overstimulation drain us daily. (For reference, here's the JAMA study I mention: Trends and Disparities in Maternal Self-Reported Mental and Physical Health, 2016–2023). If you've been feeling flat, frazzled, or unsure how to restore yourself, this episode will give you a gentle place to start — one tiny action at a time. ✨ Bonus: Patreon subscribers can download the printable Restorative Cheat Sheet that turns this framework into an easy everyday tool - will be Published  on Tuesday Sept 30

In this episode of Beyond the Letter, Adam and the team dive into the tension between dreaming big and staying faithful in the daily disciplines that move those dreams forward. Using the story of David—who went from shepherd to king—as a reminder, they emphasize that small, consistent steps of obedience often pave the way to the fulfillment of God-given visions.The conversation also challenges us to identify the areas where we most need help—whether it's discipline, clarity, or simply learning to embrace joy—because those very areas may hold the key to unlocking our full potential.

The Uplift app is here! Try it free for 30 days    Let's start with a truth that might shake up everything you've been taught: You were never created to move your body just to take up less space. I know—it's radical in a culture that worships “smaller,” but it's time we unlearn that noise and step into something better. Today, we're flipping the script on movement. Because let's be real—too often, it's been sold to us as punishment. As a way to earn worth or chase perfection. But that's not God's heart for you. What if movement wasn't about shrinking, but about celebrating? About stepping into your God-given strength, owning your energy, and living fully present in the body He designed for you? This episode is all about reclaiming movement—not to fix yourself, but to honor who you already are. It's a fresh perspective that'll shift how you move, why you move, and how you show up in your life with boldness and joy.

You've heard about ChatGPT, and if you're an overachiever, you've even dabbled in CustomGPTs. But AI agents are the Mac Daddy of them all. Think, responding to data in real time, anticipating your project needs, and making reason-based decisions for you. And the best news? You don't need to be techie to start using them in your business. Rick breaks it down in the most approachable way… from what AI agents actually are, to how to start using them today to save time, improve workflows, and scale with less stress. Whether you're a solopreneur or you have a team, this episode will shift the way you think about efficiency and growth. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ AI Agents Aren't Just Fancy Chatbots, They Can Do the Work for You – AI agents don't just complete one task. You can give them goals, set parameters, and they'll take action, like researching, writing, posting, and even responding, without you lifting a finger (after you've trained them, of course). 2️⃣ Start Small, But Start Now – You won't nail it on the first try (and that's okay!). Rick explains how to begin with simple tasks like social media posts or inbox filtering so you can build confidence and see results fast. 3️⃣ The Right Tool + The Right Workflow = Magic – Tools like Relay.app make it simple to build workflows and integrate AI agents into your business.
