Hey Clutterbugs! People pleasing, mental load, and mom burnout are a direct route to clutter, resentment, and overwhelm. If you feel like you do everything (cleaning, chores, meals, schedules, emotional labor), I'm going to show you how to stop over-functioning so your kids and partner finally step up.Today, I'm talking with JoAnn Crohn (No Guilt Mom) about boundaries, emotional regulation, and why “it's easier if I do it myself” is a little lie we tell ourselves.I also break down what people-pleasing looks like inside a home (rescuing, perfectionism, avoiding “nagging”), what it leads to, and how to build household systems that don't depend on me, or you, doing everything.In this episode, you'll learn: - How to spot people-pleasing at home (and why it creates clutter + burnout)- How to reduce the mental load and stop being the household manager- What boundaries actually sound like with kids and your spouse (and what to do when they push back)- Why letting your family struggle a little builds competence and confidence- JoAnn's Lotus Framework + “mind-body-unicorn time” (so you have a life outside the house)- How to create home systems everyone can follow, not just you You can find more Clutterbug content here: Main YouTube Channel: @Clutterbug Website: http://www.clutterbug.me TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@clutterbug_me Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/clutterbug_me/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Clutterbug.Me/ For more from JoAnn: https://www.noguiltmom.com/ #PeoplePleasing #MentalLoad #MomBurnout #Boundaries #EmotionalLabor #Resentment #OverwhelmedMom #FamilyChores #HouseholdManagement #HomeOrganization #Decluttering #OrganizingTips #Clutterbug #EmotionalRegulation #NoGuiltMom Learn more about your ad choices.

I recently went on an online journey and realized how easy it is to be influenced. This video shares my experience, detailing the steps and potential pitfalls so you can avoid similar “mistakes.” We’ll explore the subtle ways “social media” and “internet culture” can shape perceptions, even without direct following. It’s important to understand “how you get influenced” so you can recognize it in the modern digital landscape. In the world of “modern media,” understanding these dynamics is key.

Breaking verdict in the Colin Gray trial. Guilty on all 29 counts. Second-degree murder. The jury deliberated less than two hours before convicting the first parent in Georgia history for a school shooting committed by his child.Colin Gray gave his fourteen-year-old son an AR-15 for Christmas—seven months after the FBI warned him about online threats Colt made to shoot up a school. No safe. No lock. The rifle stayed in Colt Gray's bedroom next to a shrine of Parkland shooter Nikolas Cruz. Colin Gray claimed under oath he thought the images were "the guy from Green Day."The prosecution built its case on Colin Gray's own family. His daughter testified he asked her to lie to investigators. His estranged wife said she begged him repeatedly to lock up the guns. Weeks before the Apalachee High School shooting that killed two teachers and two students, Colt texted his father: "Whenever something happens just know the blood is on your hands."The morning of the shooting, Colt sent goodbye messages. Colin Gray read them. He didn't call the school. Didn't race to stop anything. Stopped at QuikTrip for a drink on his way home while four people lay dead.Colin Gray took the stand as his only defense witness. He cried. Said he never saw the evil coming. The jury rejected every word—guilty on all counts in under two hours.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta joins us to break down the failed defense strategy, the testimony that sealed this conviction, and what the Colin Gray verdict means for parental accountability nationwide. The Crumbleys were convicted of manslaughter in Michigan.

The jury needed less than two hours. Colin Gray is guilty of second-degree murder on all 29 counts—the first parent in Georgia history convicted for a school shooting committed by his child.The evidence was overwhelming. The FBI warned Colin Gray in 2023 after his son threatened to shoot up a school online. His response? Buy the fourteen-year-old an AR-15 for Christmas seven months later. No safe. No lock.

His daughter testified he asked her to lie to investigators. His estranged wife said she begged him to lock up the guns.

What if some of history's greatest civilizations didn't fall in spectacular wars… but stopped?Tonight on Juxtaposition, we explore four ancient mysteries in which entire systems of human organization faded, fractured, or vanished — leaving behind monuments, cities, and ruins… but with almost no explanation.We begin with the urban giants of the Indus Valley Civilization, whose meticulously planned cities suddenly lost cohesion after six centuries of stability.We travel back even further to Göbekli Tepe, where hunter-gatherers built massive stone temples thousands of years before agriculture — and then deliberately buried them.From there, we examine the mysterious maritime raiders known as the Sea Peoples, recorded in Egyptian reliefs during the reign of Ramesses III, whose sudden appearance coincides with the collapse of Bronze Age powers across the Mediterranean.Finally, we confront the larger puzzle historians still struggle to explain: the Late Bronze Age collapse, when interconnected kingdoms, trade networks, and writing systems disappeared within a generation.These civilizations built cities, monuments, and international systems that lasted centuries.Then something changed.Not all collapses come with conquering armies or burning cities. Sometimes the structures remain… but the system that gave them meaning dissolves.Tonight we explore the ruins — and the silence they left behind.

Most people say they want politicians held accountable, but most voters don't understand how the legislative process works. In this video, Minnesota State Representative Walter Hudson walks through a real example from the Minnesota House where Democrats claimed to support a fraud-prevention bill — while quietly organizing a strategy to kill it. If you want to understand how politics really works behind the scenes and how a bill becomes a law, this is the kind of process most voters never get to see.https://x.com/WalterHudson⬇️ Watch, think critically, and decide for yourself.

What happens when a sitting U.S. Senator, who's also a former Navy SEAL, walks in and breaks down the Iran conflict with the kind of clarity you only get from someone who's lived the GWOT? Everybody's got a take on Iran. Almost nobody can explain it like this. The fellas — Comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook — listen to Senator Tim Sheehy to lay it out: why this moment feels like the culmination of a fight that's been running for decades, why the “we're starting a war” framing doesn't match reality, and why the potential domestic ripple effects are concerning. In this episode… Sheehy's Iran breakdown: proxies, deterrence, “finish the job” logic. PLUS, DHS funding fight and what's at stake when the basics get politicized.Variety chaos: the kind of headline that makes you rewind to make sure you heard it right. The show swings to Ohio: the fellas sit down with Senator Jon Husted — a legit football guy with a national championship story — to talk the Ohio Senate race, how he pitches “grow the pie” economics, and why career and technical education is the part of the jobs debate that actually touches real families. Then we hit the rest of the mix: quick hits, clips, and the kind of cultural weirdness that only lands in this feed.

   We have so many questions about a man from California that is charged with placing 20 small bombs in a trash can next to Liberty Memorial and the World War I museum.  At the top of the list... why isn't this a bigger story and why don't we know anything about Owen Canizales Argueta?  Jackson County has announced charges against the man but that's about it.  This doesn't pass the smell test.    European countries are doing a 180 with president Trump and will now allow the United States to use their facilities to continue attack Iran.  The B-2's from Whiteman are headed to a base on land owned by the UK.  Shocking, they changed their mind after a drone hit one of their facilities.    A Senator bolts down from the stage and helps two security guards tackle and remove a big, strong protester at an Armed Services committee meeting.  Wait until you hear about the dude that broke in.    A man in Arkansas that is awaiting his trial for murder wins the GOP primary for Sheriff in his county.  You have to hear this story.    A federal court in Tennessee has its first conviction in the Chilean theft ring that broke into the homes of Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce.  The Trent McDuffie trade excites Chiefs fans in both good ways and bad.  The Royals have their first announcer in 15 years that isn't a white dude.  Lou Holtz passes at 89 and having been around him many times, it feels like I knew him.  And our Final Final is three stories about three different rock bands.

10am - Zach Jones and Derek Kramer discuss Robert Thomas and when Parayko will waive his no trade clause

I spent 6+ years running a business built for someone else's brain, and I had no idea I was doing it. Every Sunday I'd write a beautiful plan. By Wednesday it was in pieces. And I kept thinking the problem was me - not disciplined enough, not consistent enough, not cut out for this. Then one evening I looked at my birth chart and realised I'd been forcing a Gemini Moon into a Capricorn Moon's planning system for six years. And everything changed. In this episode I'm sharing the full story - how my second birth cracked something open, why The Organised CEO had to die, and the exact moment I saw my chart as a business operating system instead of a personality quiz. Plus a client story that will hit you in the chest if you've ever been told to dream bigger and your gut said no. And I'm giving you five questions to sit with this week that will surface where YOUR business is built against your wiring - no birth chart knowledge needed. Inside this episode: → Why your weekly plan keeps falling apart by Wednesday (and why it's not a discipline problem) → The difference between a personality test and an operating system - and why your chart is the second one → What a Gemini Moon, Leo stellium, and Pisces rising taught me about why I was hiding behind spreadsheets → The client who cried on our call because someone told her to aim for £50k months - and what her Venus in Leo in the 12th house actually said about her version of success → Why "whose dream are you building toward?" is the question that breaks people open → Five questions to run your own alignment audit this week - no birth chart required → What's coming next week: your chart as a 9-pillar business operating system Take the free Capacity Leak Assessment: https://hollybray.com/capacity/  The Constellation Studio - where we build all 9 business pillars around your birth chart - is coming soon. Your business is a constellation. When you build in alignment with it, everything holds

I've learned most Reiki practitioners give and give and give. But they struggle deeply with receiving.In this episode, I'm naming the thing that makes almost every practitioner I work with deeply uncomfortable: sacred exchange. And I'm not talking about this in a fluffy, spiritual-bypassing way. I'm talking about the grounded mechanics of actual energy - because we all believe in and work with energy, so let's talk about what actually happens when energy flows one direction and never returns.By the end of this episode you'll discover:-Why Undercharging Is Actually a Disservice to Those Waiting on Your Medicine - how lopsided exchange creates the opposite of transformation.-How Energetic Imbalance Can Show Up in Reiki Practice -The mechanics of what happens when energy flows one direction, and why "free" doesn't equal "Spiritual"-The Shadow I wasn't Willing to Face - How comparison, homogenisation, and mainstream conditioning have kept me performing someone else's system instead of embodying my own sovereign medicine.-What Shifts When You Receive Appropriately - The unexpected clients, the deeper transformations, the boundaries that finally hold, and the resourced, honoured version of yourself that emerges.How Sacred Exchange Actually Works - Ancient wisdom meets modern practice: why your ancestral lineage IS your Reiki lineage, and how claiming your full value is an act of spiritual alignment, not spiritual bypassing.Spirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway-qualifiedpracitioners/Free Lifting the Veil on Reiki Workshop: https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reiki/Get my free updates straight to your inbox: https://reiki-redefined.kit.com/6629991732Free community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-communityYou'll find me most on Tiktok @reikiredefined same handle on Instagram

Key Takeaways: Fundraising rooted in pressure and extraction erodes trust over time. Sustainable support grows from community, shared values, and genuine connection. When relationships lead, generosity follows naturally. Over-following up and manufactured urgency often reveal anxiety, not strategy. Constant pressure weakens credibility and exhausts donors. Abundance thinking creates calmer, more effective leadership. Caring about a mission is not enough to spark giving. Donors contribute when they feel seen, heard, and connected to something meaningful. Relationship transforms passive belief into active generosity. A “no” rarely means disinterest or lack of care. Staying curious and honoring dignity preserves long-term trust. Valuing the person over the transaction builds lasting loyalty.   “Manufactured emergency undermines your credibility. If our relationships are rooted in trust... manufactured urgency breaks that trust, and it is a tool of manipulation.”   “Curiosity keeps relationships alive. Assumptions shut them down.”   “When we stop treating generosity like it's running out, fundraising gets quieter and more effective.”  - Maryanne Dersch     Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

I used to say "I don't have time" constantly. It felt like a fact. Then I tracked my hours for one week — and discovered the uncomfortable truth.The time was there. I just wasn't protecting it.In this episode, I share what happened when I stopped saying "I don't have time" and started asking a different question: What am I actually protecting?What you'll learn:Why "I don't have time" is a thought, not a factThe 168-hour exercise that reveals where your time actually goesThe difference between "finding" time and "protecting" timeHow to give your dream the first hour instead of the scrapsStories of women who made the shift while working full-timeKey moment: "You don't find time. You protect it. And I wasn't protecting the things I said mattered most."If you've been too busy to build your dream... if your goals keep getting pushed to "someday"... if you're exhausted but not actually moving forward — this episode might change how you see your 168 hours.FREE RESOURCES:

A growing number of dentists are reconsidering PPO participation as costs rise and reimbursement falls. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt sits down with dental consultant Deborah Engelhart Nash to unpack why a reported 29% of surveyed dental practices stopped taking insurance in 2025, what fears keep dentists stuck, and how to transition the right way. You'll learn how to evaluate your patient mix, identify low-hanging fruit plans to drop first, communicate changes without blaming insurance, and redesign systems so your team can focus on people work instead of paperwork—listen to Episode 1016 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysA survey of dental marketers' client data reported that 29% of participating practices stopped taking insurance in 2025.Leaving insurance rarely fails when doctors do due diligence on patient concentration, capacity, and fee schedules before making changes.Doctors should prioritize dropping low-reimbursement plans and plans with low patient volume instead of quitting all plans at once.If a practice is booked out for months with in-network patients while losing money on those visits, reducing PPO participation can open capacity for higher-fee care.Successful transitions require team alignment, consistent messaging, and avoiding language that blames insurers or frames the decision as “about the money.”Practices should reframe insurance as an employer-provided allowance that helps offset care rather than something that determines the standard of care.Outsourcing insurance and billing work can help teams focus on patients, keep up with code changes, and improve claim outcomes.Snippets:00:00 Intro02:20 The survey source and the 29% statistic from 2025.03:15 Why some in-network hygiene visits can lose money.05:20 The “40% cut” example to explain PPO economics to teams.06:25 Why dentists don't go back once they leave insurance.07:10 The Anchorage example: when a single employer dominates the patient base.08:10 If you're booked out for months, cutting low-fee volume can create room.09:15 How umbrella plans expanded participation without doctors realizing it.10:10 Start with low-hanging fruit plans and lowest reimbursement fee schedules.12:05 The reminder: about 50% of Americans don't have dental insurance.13:20 How many active patients a solo doctor with two hygienists actually needs.15:15 Why the patient conversation should focus on quality of care, not fees.17:05 What callers ask first—and how to answer the insurance question.18:05 Predicting the future: hybrid models based on practice profile.20:10 “Roleplay” reframed as upskilling the team.23:05 Outsourcing insurance to specialists so teams do people work.24:00 72 insurance code changes in 2025 and why that matters.25:15 The biggest fear: upsetting the team, not the patients.30:55 The transition checklist: due diligence, team prep, timelines, and letters.33:00 Where to find Deborah and request the insurance letter template.Guest Bio/Guest ResourcesDebra Engelhardt-Nash has been in dentistry since 1985 as a consultant, trainer, author and speaker.

I ran away into the woods for 3 days to sit in silence and address my resentment I felt toward God. This is everything that came from it. Also the lil story of why I started shooting in the middle of the night. Pop-up Store Details: 

This episode is for the version of you who's still "trying"… but secretly feels tired of hoping. I'm sharing what I didn't realize I was doing this Fall: slowly shrinking my vision, losing my fire, and calling it "being realistic" / WORSE, not even realizing how much I was slipping. I discuss how the hope wound forms, why it creates stagnation (in your energy, your habits, and your creativity), and what actually restores hope in a way that feels peaceful instead of desperate. By the end, you'll have a reframe that calms your nervous system, a way to detach without giving up, and a few concrete steps to start moving again....even if you've been stuck for months.   MARCH IN DREAMAWAY: FOREVER HELD   Join us in the premier Dreamaway Membership for so many resources including 40+ Dreamaway-exclusive tapping sessions (90 minutes of deep-dive subconscious rewiring/EFT tapping), visualizations, 40+ tapping "Money Dates" (abundance programming), daily tapping videos, weekly energy readings, astrological updates, and so much more! https://haleyhoffmansmith.com/dreamaway 90 MIN SESSION: THE HOPE WOUND: Clearing Disappointment & Abandonment | Saturday, March 21st, 1-2:30pm ET    There's a specific kind of heartbreak that doesn't just hurt… it changes how you hope. When you've experienced abandonment, betrayal, rejection, or long seasons of disappointment, your nervous system quietly learns: "Don't get too excited." "Don't expect too much." "Protect yourself from believing or opening your heart again."   That's the Hope Wound. It's the place where your heart still wants something deeply… but your body braces for loss. In this 90-minute deep-dive, we'll gently uncover how abandonment experiences (loss of a dream, abandonment by another, a core rejection) have reshaped your relationship to hope. We'll dissolve the pattern of dimming your desire to avoid pain and rewire the subconscious belief that expecting good things makes you naive or unsafe. This session is about becoming brave enough to believe again. Because hope deferred makes a heart sick - and it's safe to get our hopes up and believe the best of the future again.     MONEY DATE: Divine Trust Fund | Tuesday, March 10th, 7:00pm ET    Imagine: what if you're totally, spiritually funded? And will ALWAYS be okay financially forever? This money date tends to the fear that your money might 'run out,' or that you won't always be provided for. Because any prophecy of doom or gloom is NOT from the Divine. When we clear this learned fear from the root, we step into true peace and optimism about our financial stories and what's coming next. This is full hope restoration for our finances.   Visualization: Timeline Restitching | in Sunday Slumber Party March 22nd  A guided journey back to the moment disappointment changed how you hope and caused a fracture in your timeline. You'll revisit a past memory where your heart braced, infuse it with divine presence and new meaning, and gently rewire the belief that it defined your future by restitching divine truth into the situation.

Here is a question that should keep every sales leader up at night: What do you do when your team has gotten so comfortable managing their existing accounts that they have stopped prospecting for new ones? That is the challenge Jeff Velez brought to a recent episode of Ask Jeb. Jeff works in the real estate services industry, where referrals from agents, brokers, and affiliates drive most of the business. Retention matters. Relationships matter. But because there is always natural attrition, his team has drifted into full farmer mode. If you are shaking your head right now, you are not alone. This is one of the most common and most dangerous patterns I see in sales organizations today. The Farmer Mentality Is Killing Your Pipeline Your book of business is shrinking a little bit every single day. Accounts churn. Contacts leave. Referral partners move on. If your team is not consistently bringing in new logos, you are not standing still. You are moving backward. The reason salespeople drift into pure farming mode is just pure human nature. The bigger a rep’s book gets, the more comfortable they become. They are making money. Things are fine. Why grind through cold calls and new outreach when warm conversations with happy clients feel so much easier? And here is the other thing: calling invisible strangers is hard. The people in your existing accounts are happy to hear from you. The people you are prospecting to are not. That gap in friction is exactly why reps gravitate toward the path of least resistance every single time. The solution is not to yell at your salespeople. This is a leadership problem, not a salesperson problem. If you want your team to prospect, you have to build a system and a culture that makes prospecting non-negotiable. That starts with you. Leaders Are Repeaters If you want your team to prospect, you have to talk about it constantly. Every team meeting. Every one-on-one. Every morning huddle. Leaders are repeaters. You set the tone by what you say, what you measure, what you celebrate, and how you show up. That means when someone brings in a new logo, you ring the bell louder for that than you do for an account renewal. Renewals matter. High margin, great for the business. But if you want prospecting behavior, you have to reward and celebrate prospecting outcomes. Make sure you are not accidentally incentivizing people to farm existing account growth rather than hunt new business. That is a trap I have walked into with more organizations than I can count. You also need to take the guesswork out of who your team should be calling. Sales leaders who expect their reps to build their own prospecting lists and figure out their own targeting are setting their people up to fail. Build the list. Point them in the right direction. Get them in position to win. Then run prospecting blocks together. And I mean together. Do not send your team to the phones and retreat to your office. Lead from the front. Split the Job When You Can One of the hardest things about managing a referral-driven or relationship-heavy business is that you need people who can both hunt and farm. And the honest truth is that most people are not equally gifted at both. Hunters tend to get new business but sometimes burn relationships. Farmers build and maintain accounts beautifully but stop hunting the moment their book is comfortable. If your business can afford it, split the role. Have dedicated hunters focused on new logo creation. Have dedicated farmers or account managers focused on retention and expansion. Most small and mid-size organizations cannot do this fully, which means your leaders have to work twice as hard to build systems that force both behaviors. When you cannot split the job, you have to build structure into the day. Block time every morning specifically for new logo prospecting. It does not have to be a huge window. An hour. Two hours. But it has to be protected, consistent, and non-negotiable. And the leaders have to be visibly engaged in it, not hiding behind their screens while their people make calls. That single behavior sends more of a message than any speech ever will. This Is a Long Game Here is what I told Jeff, and what I will tell you: do not expect this to change overnight. Cultural shifts in sales organizations are slow and painful. You will have reps who resist. You will have leaders who get uncomfortable holding people accountable because they do not want the friction. Push through it anyway. Stake it in the ground. If you stay consistent in your messaging, your structure, and your expectations, you will start to see movement in twelve to eighteen months. New business will start coming in. Your team will start to feel the momentum. And that momentum builds on itself. I am dealing with this in my own organization right now. We got comfortable with our existing customers and pulled back on new outreach. The book feels fine until the day it does not, and by then you have already lost ground you cannot easily recover. A shrinking book is not sustainable. Full stop. Your Action Plan If you are a sales leader: Reset the expectation now. Make it clear that prospecting for new logos is part of the job description, not optional. Put it in writing. Talk about it constantly. Fix your compensation structure. If you are paying higher on renewals than on new business, fix that. You are paying for the behavior you are getting. Run prospecting blocks with your team. Not near your team. With your team. Lead from the front. Give them the list. Stop expecting reps to research, target, and build their own outreach pipeline. That is a leadership function. Celebrate new logos loudly. Ring the bell. Make it a bigger deal than anything else you celebrate. If you are a sales rep: Do not wait for your leader to force you. The reps who prospect consistently, even when their book is comfortable, are the ones who build the most durable careers. Treat your book like a leaky bucket. Something is always draining out. Your job is to fill it back up, every single day. Pick up the phone. Calling strangers is uncomfortable. Do it anyway. That discomfort is exactly what separates average reps from elite ones. The message is simple. A book of business that is not growing is a book of business that is dying. This is who we are. This is what we do. We prospect, every day, without exception.

Loren was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at 18, right as she was starting college. What followed were 15 years of highs and lows, not just in her blood sugars, but in her relationship with herself. From struggling with diabulimia in her early 20s to feeling anxious, burnt out, and alone, Loren shares what it was like to look “fine” on the outside while silently fighting her diabetes behind the scenes.In this episode, she opens up about the moment she realized she couldn't keep living that way, when travel, friendships, and even future motherhood felt overshadowed by diabetes. Through coaching, she stopped dieting, shifted her focus from calories to patterns, lowered her A1C from 7.4 to 6.8 in three months, lost 10 pounds as a byproduct (not the goal), and rebuilt her relationship with food and insulin. Most importantly, she stopped seeing diabetes as the enemy and started seeing it as something she could navigate with confidence.This conversation is about more than numbers. It's about healing your relationship with diabetes so you can stop fighting yourself and start reclaiming your rise.WHAT WE COVER:Loren's 15-year journey with T1D, including diabulimia and hidden burnoutThe emotional toll of masking diabetes while feeling anxious and aloneWhy traditional therapy didn't fully address the root issueHow shifting from calorie counting to carb awareness changed everythingThe specific tools that helped her lower her A1C from 7.4 to 6.8 in 3 monthsLetting go of diet culture and rebuilding a peaceful relationship with foodTraveling with confidence (and no blood sugar chaos)Preparing for pregnancy from a place of empowerment, not fearWHAT'S NEXT:‼️Finally eat pizza and ice cream without the blood sugar roller coaster: Join our free live workshop.

348: Does dairy love you back… or is it low key sabotaging your skin, gut, and sinuses? Today I'm sharing my very personal, very real journey with dairy, from going fully dairy free during my worst gut struggles to slowly rebuilding tolerance with cultured options like Greek yogurt. I'm breaking down why some forms, like stretchy melty cheeses, still wreck me, while others work beautifully, and why fat content has suddenly changed the game for my body. We're talking mucus, breakouts, lactose vs intolerance, A2, raw milk, portion size, and why this doesn't have to be an all or nothing conversation. Your body changes, your digestion evolves, and what worked three years ago might not work today. If you've ever said “dairy just doesn't sit right with me,” this episode might help you figure out why. Topics Discussed: → How dairy has affected me over the years → How to introduce diary into your diet → Why some cheese can cause issues others don't → It's not all about ingredients but the process  → Is raw dairy REALLY ok and why I stopped drinking it → Sheeps milk, goats milk, and A2 dairy  → Why it's not an all or nothing approach when it comes to consuming dairy As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.

What if Christianity didn’t become casual… What if we simply stopped repeating what Jesus actually said? In this episode of The Uncommon Christian, Jon Ellis walks through Luke 14, John 6, and several defining encounters from the Gospels to rediscover a truth many modern believers rarely hear clearly: Jesus never hid the cost of following Him. He said: Count the cost. Take up your cross. Deny yourself. Sell everything. And when people walked away… He let them. This episode isn’t about harsh religion or legalism. It’s about clarity. Because when the cost is unclear, faith feels unfair. But when the cost is counted, endurance becomes possible. If you’ve ever wondered: ● Why does following Jesus feel harder than I expected? ● Was I invited to surrender…..or just inspiration? ● What does real discipleship actually look like? This conversation will steady you, challenge you, and call you higher. Strong faith is not built on comfort. It’s built on clarity. And clarity produces uncommon Christians. What if the problem isn’t casual Christianity… but unclear expectations? Jesus never hid the cost. He clarified it. In this episode, Jon Ellis walks through Luke 14 and John 6 to show why surrender was never optional, and why clarity, not comfort, builds enduring faith.

Since childhood, he had fallen asleep to the sound of a man and a woman talking just outside his bedroom. He could never make out the words. Only the steady murmur of a conversation that shouldn't have been there.The voices followed him from his parents' house to every place he lived afterward. He learned to ignore them. To treat them like background noise. Until other people started noticing things too. A figure in the corner. An alarm chiming with no door open. A neighbor describing two strangers no one else could see.After a blessing, the voices stopped. But when something has been with someone for that long… silence can feel just as unsettling.#HauntedHomes #DisembodiedVoices #ParanormalActivity #ShadowFigure #HauntedLife #SpiritualEncounters #UnexplainedPhenomena #GhostlyVoices #ParanormalPodcast #RealGhostStories Love real ghost stories?

In this meeting of The Late Diagnosis Club, Dr Angela Kingdon welcomes Claire Samuels, a proud Autistic speech-language pathologist whose journey to self-recognition unfolded inside the very system she would later question.Claire began her career as a Registered Behaviour Technician (RBT) in the ABA industry, believing what she was told: that ABA was the gold standard for Autistic children. She loved the kids she worked with and believed she was making a positive impact. But as she read autistic voices, learned about interoception, and began recognising her own sensory and regulatory differences, cracks in the framework began to show.Together, Angela and Claire explore ABA, nuance, Autistic self-recognition, masking, sensory processing, burnout, and what it means to move from compliance-based therapy to connection-based communication.This episode is about shifting lenses, from behaviour to nervous systems, from control to connection, and from moral judgment to regulation.

Friend,At Trump's State of the Union, Democrats wouldn't even stand for the victims of illegal immigration.Shocking?Maybe.But here in Tennessee, the media does the same thing every day — just more quietly.They won't stand up for you.They won't report the truth.They won't hold Republicans accountable when they betray conservative voters.We do.And here's why…1. Our money comes from YOU2. I don't take a dime from The Tennessee Conservative.The minute we start taking corporate money, PAC money, or checks from weak-kneed politicians… the truth stops.That's not speculation.That's how the game works.For five years we've survived this way.But I'm going to be blunt:We may not get through this legislative session without immediate support.I checked the mailbox after being gone for over a week.Two checks.Two.Meanwhile, our reporting has:Stopped bad bills• Exposed weak records• Encouraged primary challengers• Advanced legislation conservatives have fought for years to passBut investigative reporting isn't free.Legislative session coverage is expensive.And conservatives are asleep because they think what's happening in D.C. fixes Tennessee.It doesn't.If Tennessee loses ONE conservative news source…The establishment wins.The media narrative goes unchecked.And you won't even know what's being done in your name.I don't want a few large donors carrying the load.I want the thousands of people who read our reporting every week to put skin in the game.If you value truth in Tennessee, step up now.

But a lot of it is completely disconnected from what actually creates sustainable growth.In this episode, I'm breaking down some of the most popular business advice I see repeated over and over, and why I fundamentally disagree with it.Because I've lived both sides.I've experienced the pressure to quit safety too soon.The pressure to spend money I didn't have.The pressure to hide parts of myself online.The pressure to niche down before I was ready.And none of those things were what actually built my business.This episode is about helping you trust yourself, protect your stability, and grow in a way that actually supports your nervous system, your lifestyle, and your long-term success.Join the Growth Lounge - https://www.brittneyceo.com/growthGet My 7 Figure Guide: https://brittney-ceo.mykajabi.com/offers/fbKnBwSM/checkoutGet my FREE weekly biz babe moves straight to your inboxhttps://view.flodesk.com/pages/624b64b2a15594c239cada7bJoin my Facebook Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/131279237732613Follow me on Ig @brittneyceo for my daily life, hot biz tips, and morehttps://www.instagram.com/brittneyceo/

At Business Magic Live, I work with you live to release the unconscious patterns that are sabotaging your success… and replace them with the belief, clarity, and aligned action required to build a business that creates real wealth and lasting legacy.Most of the people who come to me already know the strategies. What's been missing isn't knowledge. It's the internal permission to execute, receive, and lead at the level those strategies require.   What we Discussed:   00:00 Introduction   01:00 Shiraz's Origin Story: From Bodybuilder to Bedridden   04:40 We are protecting ourselves through Stories   05:40 How I healed my Back Pain   06:30 Fake knee operations gave the same results   07:06 A woman with a Tumor that kept disappearing 08:00 Lessons learnt from living in different countries   11:50 How he kept getting Stopped at Border Control   18:00 How to navigate peoples issues without them knowing what is wrong   21:00 How he resolved his own Financial issues   23:00 My own Financial Struggles 23:20 Reviewing Why I have these Fears   25:50 If I had Money would it Corrupt me  29:05 Push & Pull Energy   32:00 Are you will to step out of the story   33:45 Reflecting on how I got seriouly injured every time I was relaxed   35:20 Do I always have to be on guard   37:00 You Do not have to worry about something to solve it   39:00 Common Patterns with clients   40:35 His Event Business Magic Live   42:00 People having a yo-yo with Finances   43:00 Where to find Shiraz and the Event   How to Contact Shiraz Baboo ⁠https://energeticmagic.com/⁠   ⁠https://www.facebook.com/energeticmagic/⁠   ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/shirazbaboo/⁠   ⁠https://www.youtube.com/energeticmagic⁠   ⁠https://www.instagram.com/energetic.magic/⁠   All about Roy / Brain Gym & Virtual Assistants at ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://roycoughlan.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠  

David Jeffers has always understood the world through sound. As a kid, he bounced beats between tape decks and built speaker boxes from spare parts. After college, he founded an underground hip hop label. Then came the day that split his life in two. And in the quiet that followed, David started listening more deeply… and piece by piece, he built a new life, guided not by what he lost, but what he could create.
