SEARCH AND DESTROY AND THE FAILURE OF ATTRITION Colleague Geoffrey Wawro. General Westmoreland implemented a strategy of attrition aimed at reaching a "crossover point" where enemies were killed faster than they could be replaced, requiring the construction of massive infrastructure and thousands of firebases. However, this "search and destroy" tactic largely failed because the enemy avoided contact 90% of the time, retreating to sanctuaries when threatened and choosing when to fight. The strategy proved ineffective against an adversary willing to wait out American patience, as US operations often resulted in a "swing and a miss" rather than decisive engagement. NUMBER 11

The economy looks strong on paper, but why does it feel harder than ever to get ahead? The answer may explain who wins and who falls behind next. In this November 2025 Passive Income Report, Russ and Joey break down the growing reality of the K-shaped economy, where markets continue to rise while everyday earners feel increasingly squeezed. They explain why inflation punishes wage earners but rewards asset owners, and how this widening gap is reshaping financial outcomes across households.The conversation explores how debt–when used strategically–can be a powerful tool during inflationary periods, while aggressively paying it off may limit opportunities and liquidity. Using real-world examples from their passive income portfolio, the hosts show how stacking small, consistent income streams can outperform chasing risky “home run” investments.Listeners also learn why mindset and systems matter more than hustle, how cash flow creates insulation from economic volatility, and why becoming an intentional investor is essential in today's environment. This episode offers a clear framework for navigating uncertainty, understanding where you sit in the economy, and taking practical steps to move to the winning side of the curve.Top three things you will learn: -Understanding the K-shaped economy-How inflation and debt interplay-Strategies for thriving in a K-shaped economyNovember 2025 Income At-A-Glance: -Gross Income for November: $55,826.80-Total Expenses for November: $14,797.90-Total Net Profit for November: $41,028.90-Difference b/t October & November: ($6,994.69)-% of net profit to overall gross revenue: 73%Disclaimer: The opinions expressed on this podcast are solely those of the hosts and guests and do not constitute financial advice.

Carlotta Thompson, shortly after attaining her dream of working for the IRS, Carlotta realized that the IRS isn't actually in place to help small businesses like she'd thought and it felt like she was working for the wrong side. As an auditor, she saw tons of tax returns with sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars of missed deductions that were detrimental for the client. Carlotta had a bigger dream and mission to directly help business owners pay the least tax legally possible, so what began as a ministry has evolved into Tax Strategists of America!

Imposter Syndrome in Leadership: Why Even Experienced Leaders Struggle Imposter syndrome in leadership doesn't disappear with experience. It often shows up when the pressure is highest. Even the most capable leaders can find themselves questioning their confidence under stress. Self-doubt doesn't mean you're incapable. It means you're human—and often, that you're growing. In this episode, Blake sits down with Jenn Donahue, retired U.S. Navy Captain, keynote speaker, and author, to unpack why experienced leaders feel imposter syndrome and how leaders overcome imposter syndrome under pressure. From life-or-death decisions in Afghanistan to navigating misogyny in male-dominated environments, Jenn shares grounded, real-world insight on leading with clarity, confidence, and alignment. Episode Highlights When Imposter Syndrome Hijacks Your Brain [10:56] - Facing an assassination threat in Afghanistan [11:37] - What happens when your brain goes to "Who am I to be in charge?" [14:33] - Why this is the human condition, not a weakness [18:04] - When it shows up at a conference invitation The Cost of Trying to Lead Like Everyone Else [26:49] - Early mistakes in leadership [27:45] - The mentor who helped her find quiet leadership [29:45] - Your unique fingerprint for success [31:27] - The admiral who wished he'd figured it out sooner Navigating Misogyny with Strategy, Not Reaction [34:57] - "Because that's what men do"—handling blatant disrespect [37:50] - Why having allies in the room matters [40:51] - The power of pausing before responding The Warrior Framework [42:47] - Four steps to quiet your inner critic [43:30] - Friend or foe? Identifying the voices in your head [44:50] - Just take the first step—it doesn't have to be perfect Powerful Quotes "You have to be yourself in order to be effective. Trying to be like everyone else doesn't work." -Jenn Donahue "Imposter syndrome doesn't mean you're not ready. It usually means you're growing." -Jenn Donahue "Pain is inevitable. But suffering is a choice. Right before our breakthrough is always surrender." -Blake Schofield "So often in our society, we are trying to remove the challenges that we face. But we grow through our challenges and growth comes through discomfort." -Blake Schofield Resources Mentioned Drained at the end of the day & want more presence in your life?

What if the habit you've been trying to break is actually how you learned to survive? It's January. You've made the resolution. This year will be different. You start strong. First week goes well. By February, you're back where you started. Maybe feeling worse because now you've added shame to the pile. I share about Rachel, a 42-year-old marketing director. She tried everything to stop late-night eating. Willpower. Mantras. Accountability apps. Nothing worked for more than a few weeks. When I asked what she felt right before reaching for food, she'd never thought about it. That knot in her stomach? It went away when she ate. Her nervous system had found a way to keep emotions manageable. This wasn't about the food. It was about how she was getting through life. In this episode you'll hear more about: Why willpower isn't the problem: When we try to remove a survival strategy through willpower alone, our nervous system panics. We just took away one of its tools without offering anything in its place. The difference between a habit and a survival strategy: A habit is brushing our teeth or taking the same route to work. A survival strategy helps us cope when capacity has been overwhelmed. Late-night eating, scrolling, overworking—these are never just habits. Why our body fights back: Our nervous system won't give up a survival strategy easily. Its job is to help us survive. Of course we're back at the refrigerator by end of January. What one of my course members realized: "My protectors are able to relax when I create safety and support in my nervous system." That's the step most people miss. Why capacity matters for resolutions: Capacity is how much stress we can hold before we get overwhelmed. When we remove a survival strategy without building capacity, we overflow right back into overwhelm. Two ways to create space: We can create safety inside our current container. This removes the need for numbing and distraction. Or we can build a larger container that holds more. It is never about the behavior. The behavior is the downstream effect. When we understand this, we can work with our biology instead of against it. Resources/Guides: Biology of Trauma book - Available now everywhere books are sold. Get your copy
In this New Year's Day episode, Cyd sits down with Cheri Oteri for a wildly honest, hilarious, and unexpectedly deep conversation about grief, burnout, leadership, and the absolute massacre of language in modern marketing.They kick things off by questioning why humans invented New Year's celebrations in the first place, spiral into sickness updates and hospital scares, and then land squarely on the real theme of the episode: we've officially ruined some words beyond repair. Think “era,” “toxic,” “narcissist,” and other once-meaningful terms that now mean… absolutely nothing.From there, the conversation sharpens. They unpack why you cannot motivate your team, why forcing staff to do social media is unhinged, and why salon owners need to stop asking “How do I get them to…” and start asking “Is my business even worth documenting?”This episode dives into:Why behavior doesn't change unless the environment doesWhy boring salons create silent teamsWhy posting hair is dead (sorry)Why leadership-by-example is annoying but necessaryWhy imperfect, human content is about to matter more than ever in an AI-saturated internetIt's funny, spicy, blunt, and grounded in real coaching experience. No platitudes. No buzzwords. Just the uncomfortable truth: you can't spark something if there's nothing to light.If you're a salon owner, leader, or coach heading into 2026 feeling stuck, this episode will either piss you off a little or make everything click. Possibly both.

As we begin the new year, this New Year's Day market outlook takes a balanced, risk-aware look at what 2026 may hold for investors. Lance Roberts & Danny Ratliff examine the bullish case for markets, including the macro and technical backdrops supporting higher prices, while also addressing the growing risks beneath the surface—particularly stress in credit markets and the potential for lower long-term returns. The discussion explores how elevated valuations, tighter financial conditions, and shifting economic dynamics could impact portfolio outcomes in the year ahead. We also outline practical investment strategies for 2026, including why cash can provide valuable optionality during periods of volatility and uncertainty. Additional topics include a preview of the 2026 Economic Summit, sector opportunities such as energy, expectations for gold and silver, and a critical discussion of which investments may be inappropriate to hold inside a Roth IRA structure. This episode is designed to help investors set realistic expectations, manage risk, and position portfolios thoughtfully for the year ahead. 0:00 - INTRO 0:18 - Market Outlook for 2026 2:12 - The Case for Bullishness 7:15 - The Risk for Lower Returns 9:44 - The Case for Bearishness 13:24 - Stress in Credit markets 15:33 - Investing Strategies for 2026 20:40 - Cash Provides Optionality 23:48 - 2026 Economic Summit Preview 29:17 - Energy Plays for 2026 32:20 - Expectations for Gold and Silver in 2026 39:15 - What Investments Should NOT Be Held in a Roth IRA?

Today's episode is different. I'm not giving you the same BS weight loss advice you've heard over and over again. We're getting into the messy, nuanced questions that actually come up when you're trying to lose weight in a way that's healthy, shame free, and supportive of feeling the way you want to feel. We're talking about plateaus that seem to happen for no reason, cravings that feel out of control, hormones that complicate everything, workouts that backfire, and how to pursue weight loss without destroying your relationship with food—or yourself. And we're doing it with someone I trust deeply to hold all of that complexity: functional registered dietitian and certified personal trainer Nicki Parlitsis, who has helped thousands of people lose weight in ways that actually last. She's actually my personal RD and she's helped me lose 30 pounds in a sustainable way over the course of a year, after I got some test results that served as a wake up call in my own life. Today's episode is going to help you create a body that feels amazing to live in. If you've ever felt confused, frustrated, or secretly ashamed for struggling with something that everyone online makes look easy—this episode is for you.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this New Year's Eve Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers major economic updates, exposes collapsing green energy narratives, explains the White House's aggressive new asylum strategy, and revisits the explosive Somali fraud scandal in Minnesota that is now dominating national politics. He closes with a reflection on truth, power, and why elites work so hard to stop Americans from asking hard questions. Good News for Your Wallet: Pending home sales jumped 3.3 percent in November, the strongest showing in three years, driven by rising wages and lower mortgage rates. Rents are falling across most major cities, creating the most renter-friendly market in at least a decade. HUD data shows that two-thirds of rental demand came from the foreign-born, meaning deportations and self deportations are directly increasing housing supply and lowering prices for native born Americans. The Cheap Labor Myth Collapses: After more than two and a half million illegal migrants have left the country, GDP and wages are rising while rents and crime fall. Bryan argues Americans were lied to for decades by elites who claimed cheap foreign labor was necessary. The data now shows the opposite, and he calls the moment revolutionary. Green Energy Reality Check: China's renewable energy boom is largely a mirage, with many wind and solar projects never connected to the grid. Beijing is simultaneously expanding coal plants across Southeast Asia. Global wind speeds and solar efficiency are declining, and Japan is restricting solar farms for environmental and aesthetic reasons. Bryan says the global green movement is now in retreat. Trump's New Asylum Strategy: The White House is canceling large numbers of asylum claims and sending others to third countries like South Sudan or Palau while cases are reviewed. The administration says most asylum claims are fraudulent and designed to exploit loopholes. Democrats accuse Trump of abandoning human rights. DOJ Targets DEI Programs: The Justice Department is using the False Claims Act to pressure federal contractors to dismantle Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs. Companies must either eliminate DEI or face massive fines for defrauding the government. Universities Face a Financial Shake-Up: The Trump administration wants universities and venture capital firms to share profits from taxpayer-funded research. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is pushing for equity stakes or cash returns when patents are commercialized. Elon Musk Enters the Midterm Fight: Despite past clashes with Republicans, Elon Musk says he will spend hundreds of millions of dollars to help the GOP keep Congress. He cites fears of Democrat censorship, economic control, and what he calls ideological extremism. Minnesota's Somali Fraud Scandal Explodes: Federal investigators say Somali-run nonprofits defrauded taxpayers of at least nine billion dollars through fake daycares, autism services, food programs, and Medicaid scams. Money funded luxury lifestyles, Islamist terror groups, and Democratic campaigns. Governor Tim Walz halted earlier investigations after activists accused the state of racism. A Somali academic told the New York Times that fraud is culturally encouraged, a statement Walz has avoided addressing. Bryan explains why Elon Musk now calls the governor "Traitor Tim." A New Year's Reflection: Bryan closes by urging listeners to reject elite deflections and keep demanding the truth. He argues that the real battle ahead is not left versus right, but truth versus lies, and promises that this podcast will continue to challenge power with facts, logic, and reason in the year ahead. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: pending home sales rent decline deportations, cheap labor myth wages GDP, China coal expansion fake green energy, Trump asylum third country policy, DOJ False Claims Act DEI, university patent profit sharing Lutnick, Elon Musk GOP midterms funding, Minnesota Somali fraud nine billion dollars, Tim Walz investigation, al Shabaab terror funding
Original Release Date: November 25, 2025Our Chief U.S. Economist Michael Gapen breaks down how growth, inflation and the AI revolution could play out in 2026.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Michael Gapen: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Michael Gapen, Morgan Stanley's Chief U.S. Economist.Today I'll review our 2026 U.S. Economic Outlook and what it means for growth, inflation, jobs and the Fed.It's Tuesday, November 25th, at 10am in New York.If 2025 was the year of fast and furious policy changes, then 2026 is when the dust settles.Last year, we predicted slow growth and sticky inflation, mainly because of strict trade and immigration policies – and this proved accurate. But this year, the story is changing. We see the U.S. economy finally moving past the high-uncertainty phase. Looking ahead, we see a return to modest growth of 1.8 percent in 2026 and 2 percent in 2027. Inflation should cool but it likely won't hit the Fed's 2 percent target. By the end of 2026, we see headline PCE inflation at 2.5 percent, core inflation at 2.6 percent, and both stay above the 2 percent target through 2027. In other words, the inflation fight isn't over, but the worst is behind us.So, if 2025 was slow growth and sticky inflation, then 2026 and [20]27 could be described as moderate growth and disinflation. The impact of trade and immigration policies should fade, and the economic climate should improve. Now, there are still some risks. Tariffs could push prices higher for consumers in the near term; or if firms cannot pass through tariffs, we worry about additional layoffs. But looking ahead to the second half of 2026 and beyond, we think those risks shift to the upside, with a better chance of positive surprises for growth.After all, AI-related business spending remains robust and upper income consumers are faring well. There is reason for optimism. That said, we think the most likely path for the economy is the return to modest growth. U.S. consumers start to rebound, but slowly. Tariffs will keep prices firm in the first half of 2026, squeezing purchasing power for low- and middle-income households. These households consume mainly through labor market income, and until inflation starts to retreat, purchasing power should be constrained.Real consumption should rise 1.6 percent in 2026 and 1.8 [percent] in 2027 – better, but not booming. The main culprit is a labor market that's still in ‘low-hire, low-fire' mode driven by immigration controls and tariff effects that keep hiring soft. We see unemployment peaking at 4.7 percent in the second quarter of 2026, then easing to 4.5 percent by year-end. Jobs are out there, but the labor market isn't roaring. It'll be hard for hiring to pick up until after tariffs have been absorbed.And when jobs cool, the Fed steps in. The Fed is cutting rates – but at a cost. After two 25 basis point rate cuts in September and October, we expect 75 basis points more by mid 2026, bringing the target range to 3.0-3.25 percent. Why? To insure against labor market weakness. But that insurance comes with a price: inflation staying above target longer. Think of it as the Fed walking a tightrope—lean too far toward jobs, and inflation lingers; lean too far toward inflation, and growth stumbles. For now the Fed has chosen the former.And how does AI fit into the macro picture? It's definitely a major growth driver. Spending on AI-related hardware, software, and data centers adds about 0.4 percent to growth in both 2026 and 2027. That's roughly 20 percent of total growth. But here's the twist: imports dilute the impact. After accounting for imported tech, AI's net contribution falls sharply. Still, we expect AI to boost productivity by 25-35 basis points by 2027, over our forecast horizon, marking the start of a new innovation cycle. In short: AI is planting the seeds now for bigger gains later.Of course, there are risks to our outlook. And let me flag three important ones. First, demand upside – meaning fiscal stimulus and business optimism push growth higher; under this scenario inflation stays hot, and the Fed pauses cuts. If the economy really picks up, then the Fed may need to take back the risk management cuts it's putting in now. That would be a shock to markets. Second, there's a productivity upside – in which case AI delivers bigger productivity gains, disinflation resumes, and rates drift lower. And lastly, a potential mild recession where tariffs and tight policy bite harder, GDP turns negative in early 2026, and the Fed slashes rates to near 1 percent. So in summary: 2026 looks to be a transition year with less drama but more nuance, as growth returns and inflation cools, while AI keeps rewriting the playbook.Thanks for listening.

Episode 3242: Emma Hogan highlights compelling research showing that boosting physical activity has greater long-term health benefits than focusing on weight loss. Prioritizing fitness, not the scale, can dramatically reduce the risk of chronic disease and premature death, while also supporting healthier fat distribution and better metabolic health through habits like daily movement, whole grains, and even avocados. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.lesmills.com/us/fit-planet/health/research-roundup-diet/ Quotes to ponder: "We're not necessarily against weight loss, we just think that it shouldn't be the primary criterion for judging the success of a lifestyle intervention program." "The benefits of exercise are dose-dependent, with the biggest benefits coming from just moving out of the couch-potato zone to doing at least some moderate-intensity activity." "The goal wasn't weight loss, we were interested in understanding what eating an avocado does to the way individuals store their body fat."

Matt Dye discusses herd dynamics and deer densities on three different recreational farms across three different states. He highlights the importance of balancing herd density with habitat improvements. As this is the only way to see the farm's full maximized value. Farm 1 in Ohio, 959 acres, has a high deer density of 196 deer per square mile, necessitating a reduction from 295 deer to 110 per square mile over four years. Farm 2 in Kentucky, 580 acres, has a lower density of 111 deer per square mile and requires a similar reduction strategy. Farm 3, a 1500-acre timbered farm with high fencing, has a one-to-one buck-to-doe ratio and a high fawn recruitment rate, requiring a focus on reducing lower-quality bucks and maintaining doe harvest. These three examples emphasize the need for comprehensive herd and habitat management. Trophy deer hunting requires a fluid and engaged habitat management and herd management program. Without either, you will be lacking!
In this episode, Travis brings on his producer to react to a viral Bobby Lee money clip and unpack what it really means to outsource all of your financial thinking to a “money guy.” Together they contrast celebrity-money problems with normal-life money pressures and break down a healthier, more intentional way to manage your finances. On this episode we talk about: Whether Bobby Lee's “I don't know what anything costs, my money guy handles it” strategy is actually smart or quietly dangerous Why celebrities and ultra-high earners can ignore day-to-day prices in a way normal people simply cannot How blind trust in money managers can turn into disaster stories like Dane Cook's embezzlement ordeal The mindset difference between “set it and forget it” and regularly keeping a pulse on your income, spending, and runway Practical habits like weekly account check-ins, building a plan, and using money awareness to fuel your drive to earn more Top 3 Takeaways You can delegate bill paying and investing, but you cannot delegate responsibility; you still need a basic pulse on what you earn, spend, and keep. Totally ignoring your money might feel freeing in the short term, but it massively increases the risk of overspending, lifestyle creep, or even getting stolen from. If you are not already wealthy, you must think about money often—track it, plan around it, and use that clarity to go make more—so you can eventually earn the right not to stress over every dollar. Notable Quotes “There's no way to get to a financial situation like that without thinking about money in some regard along the way.” “If you don't keep a pulse, you're dead.” “Money only solves money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems with money in the bank—so let's start there.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️
Ever notice how spending money in your business can feel strangely loaded, like you're supposed to know the “right” number, the “right” time, or the “right” formula, even though no one ever actually taught you how to make those decisions? In this episode, I'm joined by Kickstart Accounting CEO and co-founder Danielle Hayden for a grounded, refreshing conversation that takes the pressure off your finances and puts clarity back in the driver's seat. Danielle breaks down the psychology behind spending, the expense categories every entrepreneur should understand, and the simple percentages that make decision-making feel less emotional and more strategic. We talk about navigating different seasons of life and business, why permission to invest is often the turning point for growth, and how to shift from “I'm not a money person” to “I can absolutely learn this.” If you've been craving structure, confidence, or a healthier relationship with your numbers, this episode will help you see spending as a tool, not a test, and step more fully into your CEO role. Today you'll hear:02:48 – How Danielle's journey from corporate CFO to entrepreneurship reshaped her mission around helping women feel empowered with their money05:48 – The hidden money narratives entrepreneurs bring into business and why so many feel intimidated by their numbers06:48 – Why reducing expenses isn't the path to profitability and how spending should reflect your actual goals08:48 – The major business spending categories explained (plus the healthy percentage ranges to aim for)10:48 – When to invest in expert support, how to use operating costs to buy back time, and what shifts as you approach six figures12:48 – A real client case study showing how spending evolves across growth, personal life changes, and different business seasons15:48 – The power of quarterly planning and why long-term goals must stay flexible in a changing world17:48 – The most common limiting belief around money and Danielle's reframe that helps entrepreneurs stop seeing finances as a personal flaw19:48 – How the 48-Hour Rule keeps you from impulse investing and brings your decisions back into alignment20:48 – Danielle's non-negotiable business expense (and why no entrepreneur regrets hiring the right help)21:48 – Her top recommended money resources and the advice she'd give her younger entrepreneurial self CONNECT WITH DANIELLE:Website: http://www.kickstartaccountinginc.comInstagram: @kickstartaccounting

In this episode, Eric Coffie sits down with Christine Hopkins, the CEO behind ASCII Federal Services, a 4PL (fourth-party logistics) company that manages end-to-end supply chain—from procurement and tracking to warehousing, inventory optimization, deliveries, and disposal. Christine shares how an existential crisis during COVID wiped out nearly 90% of revenue, forcing a bold pivot into federal contracting through restructuring ownership, becoming a Woman-Owned Small Business, and leveraging commercial past performance to compete. She walks through her methodical approach: getting registered, submitting "practice bids" for feedback, winning a first prime contract in 18 months, then scaling carefully to protect performance and reputation. The biggest lesson? Relationships and networking are the real differentiator—especially for agencies that avoid risk. Christine also breaks down the conferences, CEO peer network support (Vistage), and learning resources that accelerated her growth—and closes with a reminder that sustained success requires taking care of yourself so you can show up fully. Key Takeaways Relationships are the strategy: Government (and primes) buy from people they know and trust—networking isn't optional, it's the edge. Win methodically, not emotionally: Use "practice bids" to learn, protect performance, and scale slowly so you don't overload your team or reputation. Resilience + restructuring wins: A smart ownership/size restructure plus strong commercial past performance can open the door to prime contracts fast—even after a major revenue hit.

WBSRocks: Business Growth with ERP and Digital Transformation
Send us a textAI-native ERP systems are rapidly reshaping the enterprise software landscape by challenging long-standing assumptions about how ERPs are selected, implemented, and evolved over time. As AI becomes embedded directly into configuration, development, and daily workflows, practices once viewed as risky—such as extensive customization, rapid iteration, or even building ERP capabilities in-house—are becoming increasingly viable. Rising commercial software costs are further forcing executives to revisit the traditional buy-versus-build calculus, particularly as AI-first platforms promise faster deployments, more adaptable architectures, and experiences tailored to specific operating models. However, the category remains early, raising critical questions around governance, scalability, reliability, and long-term support. In this context, Everest ERP's AI-first approach offers a practical lens into how AI-native architectures can accelerate time-to-value while redefining what buyers, implementers, and business leaders should expect from ERP systems over the next decade.In this episode, Sam Gupta hosts Sandeep Chopra, co-CEO, Everest, to discuss how AI impacts ERP strategy for companies.Video: https://www.elevatiq.com/events-and-webinars/your-erp-strategy-is-about-to-break-ai-is-rewriting-the-playbook/Questions for Panelists?

Why does planning feel so overwhelming even when you are doing everything right?I see so many women blaming themselves for lack of discipline or consistency when the real issue is something deeper. When vision is unclear, every decision feels heavy, every task feels urgent, and planning starts to feel like pressure instead of support. That is not a motivation problem. It is a clarity problem.When vision comes first, strategy finally has something solid to stand on.
