Podcasts about stormy seas

Welcome to episode #1053 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). Eric Ries is one of the most influential entrepreneurs and management thinkers of the past two decades. Best known as the creator of the Lean Startup movement, his ideas fundamentally changed how founders, innovators, and established organizations build products, test ideas, and bring innovation to market. His work has shaped startups, Fortune 500 companies, governments, and nonprofits around the world, earning him recognition as one of the defining voices on modern entrepreneurship. In his latest book, Incorruptible - Why Good Companies Go Bad... And How Great Companies Stay Great, Eric turns his attention to a much deeper question: why do organizations that begin with strong values and bold missions so often lose their way? Drawing on years of advising founders and studying corporate history, he argues that corruption is rarely about bad people... it's about systems, incentives, governance, and what he calls "financial gravity," the invisible forces that slowly pull organizations away from the very principles that made them successful in the first place. In this conversation, Eric explores why mission-driven companies outperform over the long term, how corporate governance can preserve or destroy an organization's purpose, and why stewardship may be one of business's most undervalued leadership traits. We also discuss the unintended consequences of shareholder primacy, what today's AI revolution can learn from previous waves of technological disruption, and why the future belongs to organizations that are intentionally designed to remain true to their values even as they scale. It's a thoughtful conversation about leadership, innovation, governance, and what it really takes to build companies that endure. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 53:30.

Can Farage plot a route to Number 10, asks Tim Shipman in our cover article this week. He might be flanked by heavyweights – such as his head of policy Zia Yusuf and Conservative Party defector Danny Kruger MP – but he will need a lot more people to pull off his biggest upset for British politics yet. Where will they come from? And what's the balance he needs to strike between being radical enough to win power but also without alienating significant chunks of the electorate?Plus, as former UK ambassador to the US Peter Mandelson breaks his silence – in this week's Spectator – to argue that Europe needs to adapt to a new reality, Freddy Gray ponders what Trump's ‘Donroe Doctrine' is actually all about. Immigration? Drugs? Oil? Or just plain chaos? For this week's Edition, host William Moore is joined by political editor Tim Shipman, deputy editor and editor of our US edition Freddy Gray and columnist Mary Wakefield. As well as domestic and foreign politics, they examine Generation Z's attitude towards sex – or rather their lack of it. Are politics and porn making them too anxious? Is this another example of the cultural ‘boring twenties' young people are living through? And how will each of the guests approach the sex education of their own children?Produced by Patrick Gibbons. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Trump administration promised to put wind in the sails of the fossil fuels industry, but the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has failed to resolve a key issue regarding the liquids pipeline rate index, under which the commission adjusts the rates charged to shippers on FERC-regulated crude oil, refined products and NGL pipelines. In today's RBN blog, we'll review the recent history of the rate index, why it moved sharply higher (and then lower) in recent years, and what lies ahead.

In this episode, Matthew bears witness to the many ways Jesus reveals Himself as God. Jesus calms a storm that leaves even seasoned fishermen terrified. He confronts a legion of demons in Gentile territory and is then begged to leave by the frightened locals. Returning home, Jesus heals a paralyzed man in full view of skeptical religious leaders, demonstrating His authority to forgive sins. Finally, we hear how Jesus calls Matthew, a tax collector, into discipleship. Jesus shares a meal with Matthew and his friends—sinners in the eyes of the religious elite—provoking questions about who truly belongs at God's table and just who this Jesus is.  The Rev. David Hinz, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Sauk Rapids, MN, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Matthew 8:23-9:13.  To learn more about Trinity Lutheran, visit trinitysr.org. The Gospel of Matthew bridges Old and New Testaments, presenting Jesus as the promised Messiah who fulfills the Law we could never keep and establishes His kingdom of grace for all nations. Written by a tax collector transformed by pure grace, Matthew reveals Christ as the true Son of David and Emmanuel (God with us) who challenges us with the crushing demands of the Law in His Sermon on the Mount to the sweet comfort of the Gospel in His death and resurrection. From royal genealogy to glorious resurrection, this verse-by-verse study proclaims the One who conquered sin, death, and the devil for us, now delivering forgiveness, life, and salvation through Word and Sacrament as He remains with His church always, even to the end of the age.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

Life doesn't always go according to plan. The truth? Storms in life happen. They are inevitable. We don't choose the storm, but we can choose how we prepare for the storms and how we react when  the come. When the seas are stormy, there's a steadiness that we can hold on to. That's the God we serve.

In a rich dialogue on the Clarity Podcast, Nick Fatato joins Aaron to explore the nuanced dynamics of transformative leadership. At the core of their discussion lies the biblical verse from Acts 13:36, which speaks to the profound desire to fulfill one's God-given purpose. Fatato articulates his commitment to living intentionally, reflecting on how he assesses his own alignment with God's calling. The conversation takes a compelling turn as they examine the metaphor of a sailboat's keel, symbolizing the internal stability required to navigate life's storms. Fatato's insights underscore the necessity of cultivating a deep, resilient inner life through consistent spiritual practices and disciplines. This imagery not only resonates with the challenges leaders face but also emphasizes the importance of grounding oneself to maintain balance amid external pressures.Another pivotal theme in their conversation is the sacrament of friendship and its essential role in leadership. Fatato shares the significance of having trusted confidants who can provide support and encouragement during challenging times. Drawing on the friendship between David and Jonathan, he illustrates how deep relationships tether individuals to their calling and remind them of their worth even in moments of failure. This discussion highlights the need for leaders to foster connections that promote accountability and understanding, particularly in the context of spiritual leadership where the stakes are high. They also tackle the pressing issue of spiritual abuse, advocating for a culture of grace and restoration rather than judgment. Furtado calls for humility in leadership, encouraging listeners to walk alongside those who have stumbled and to recognize the journey toward redemption as a vital aspect of faith.The episode culminates in a reflection on the contemporary challenges faced by leaders in a fast-paced, success-driven world. Fatato warns against the pitfalls of transactional leadership, where metrics often overshadow meaningful relationships. He emphasizes the importance of fostering authentic connections that contribute to long-term effectiveness and impact. By prioritizing soul care and nurturing deep relationships, leaders can cultivate an environment of support and resilience. This episode serves as a profound reminder of the holistic nature of leadership, where personal integrity, relational depth, and a commitment to God's purpose intertwine to create a transformative leadership experience.Takeaways: Transformative leadership is about recognizing God as the senior partner in decision-making. A cumulative life built on spiritual practices can prepare us for life's storms. Friendship is a sacrament, and deep relationships are vital for spiritual leaders. David's quick repentance demonstrates the importance of doing good after doing bad. Soul care and intentional friendships are essential for sustained effectiveness in ministry. The weight of our spiritual lives acts as a keel, stabilizing us amid life's challenges.

Witnessing the unraveling of my own parents' marriage as a child left me with a suitcase of unanswered questions and emotions. Fast forward to today, and we're joined by Billie, a family attorney from Gilbert, Arizona, who not only lived a similar story but also dedicated her career to guiding others through the choppy seas of family law. In this heart-to-heart talk, she shares valuable insights on how the echoes of divorce resonate with children and young adults, emphasizing that the conflict level is the true culprit of long-lasting scars, not the divorce itself. Billy marries her personal narrative with her legal acumen to offer strategies that protect the emotional well-being of those caught in the middle. The echoes of lockdown still reverberate in many homes, where the pandemic's pressure-cooker environment escalated underlying domestic tensions, sometimes shattering relationships beyond repair.

Billy walks us through these contrasting tales while unraveling the knotted threads of parental alienation—a term that's as complex legally as it is emotionally.

We close our episode with a compass for the journey of co-parenting and divorce, illuminating the path through the dense fog of legalities and emotional turmoil. Billy speaks to the importance of knowing your rights and when to seek legal counsel, advocating for mediation as a beacon of hope for maintaining peace and ensuring the welfare of the children involved.
