On October 1, 2017, Mary Jo von Tillow's world changed forever.Her husband, Kurt, was killed in the Route 91 Harvest Festival mass shooting in Las Vegas, the deadliest in U.S. history. In just eleven minutes, her life—and the lives of thousands of others—were shattered.But what followed was more than grief. Out of devastation came unexpected bonds with other survivors, advocates, and families who knew the same kind of loss. From a 9/11 firefighter who turned his pain into kindness, to a victims' rights attorney who changed national law, to fellow widows and survivors who refused to give up, Mary Jo discovered what it means to carry tragedy together.The Las Vegas Massacre Connections is both a deeply personal account and a collective portrait of resilience. Through Mark Gray's in-depth reporting and Mary Jo's courage to share her story, this book captures the enduring impact of Route 91 and the human strength that rises after unimaginable loss.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

What if real strength isn't about power or control, but about how safe other people feel in your presence? In this solo episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius introduces the first part of a new series on what it truly means to be a strong person. Reflecting on conversations with family and insights from his upcoming work, he explores why strength starts with making others feel safe and giving more than you take. Darius shares a powerful excerpt from George Bernard Shaw's “A Splendid Torch,” emphasizing service, purpose, and living for something greater than yourself. He challenges listeners to examine how they show up in their relationships, the energy they contribute to their communities, and whether they are living in a way that builds others up rather than breaking them down.  In this episode, Darius will discuss: (00:00) Introduction to Strength and Relationships (06:28) Creating Safety in Relationships (08:44) The Importance of Giving More Than Taking (16:13) Living a Life of Purpose and Contribution Connect with Darius: Website: https://therealdarius.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dariusmirshahzadeh/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imthedarius/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Thegreatnessmachine  Book: The Core Value Equation https://www.amazon.com/Core-Value-Equation-Framework-Limitless/dp/1544506708 Write a review for The Greatness Machine using this link: https://ratethispodcast.com/spreadinggreatness.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Mo Brings Plenty is a Lakota horseman, actor, and cultural leader whose impact reaches far beyond television and film. Known for his work in Yellowstone, 1883, 1923, and the upcoming Outriding the Devil, Mo has become one of the most important voices in preserving, protecting, and sharing Native American stories with truth and integrity.In this episode, Mo opens up about the storms he has walked through — childhood hardships, broken dreams, addiction, loss, and the long road back to faith and purpose. Horses became his escape, his identity, and the gift that carried him across the world. Prayer became the anchor that steadied him when life felt overwhelming. And through every storm, staying true to who he is became the foundation of his strength.Mo shares powerful insights about humility, cultural identity, the matriarchal roots of Lakota leadership, and why diversity is one of God's greatest designs. He explains his responsibility in Hollywood productions — to honor ancestors, protect sacred traditions, and ensure accurate representation for Native communities.This episode is emotional, spiritual, grounding, and deeply meaningful. Mo's wisdom hits the heart. His humility inspires. His resilience reminds us that storms shape us — but they don't define us.Listen to Episode 262 on your favorite platform or watch on YouTube via @rodeolive. ----In The LOOP Podcast hosted by Jordan Jo Hollabaugh, is inspired by the western culture and breakaway roping lifestyle.

In this episode of the Weights and Plates podcast, Robert Santana and Andy Baker pick up where they left off—diving deep into what really matters after the novice phase of strength training. From chaotic early training setups (including recording in a truck to escape jackhammers) to the predictable pitfalls lifters fall into, they unpack why so many people are eager to “major in the minors” before mastering the fundamentals.Together, they explore how goals shape programming—whether you're training for strength sports, performance, aesthetics, or simply to avoid being “weak.” With candid discussion on genetics, aging, muscle-building potential, drug-influenced advice online, and why variety matters for performance and longevity, this conversation lays out the realistic roadmap every lifter needs once the newbie gains start to slow down.Subscribe for more episodes of Weights & Plates where we cut through the noise and get real about strength training, nutrition, and long-term progress. https://weightsandplates.com/online-coaching/Follow Weights & Plates YouTube: https://youtube.com/@weights_and_plates?si=ebAS8sRtzsPmFQf-Instagram: @the_robert_santanaRumble: https://rumble.com/user/weightsandplates Web: https://weightsandplates.com

In this week's Grow Guides we're breaking down four fundamentals every home grower should understand, whether you're on your first tent or your fiftieth. We start with light intensity, what it actually does inside the plant, how to avoid blasting your tips to death, and how to find the sweet spot for strong, stress-free growth. From there we move into a beginner-friendly guide to pheno-hunting at home. No lab coats, no nonsense, just simple steps to spot your keepers, recognise the standouts early, and build your own personal stable over time. We also dig into the real science behind drying speeds. Everyone says “slow and steady,” but we explain why it matters, what's actually happening inside the flower as it dries, and how to avoid the harsh, grassy results that happen when you rush it. Finally, we break down the root-to-shoot ratio, one of the most overlooked concepts in growing. Understanding this balance will help you diagnose plant issues faster, feed more intelligently, and grow stronger plants from veg to harvest. A packed episode full of knowledge that makes your next grow smoother, smarter, and a whole lot more fun. As always, join us on Percy's Grow Room if you want to learn more, get help with your grow, or hang out with thousands of growers just like you. Join our community here:

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251205dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion “Come,” he replied, “and you will see.” John 1:39 Come and See Whenever something wonderful happens to us, what do we do? We tell someone. We call out to friends and family, inviting them to experience it with us. Whether it’s a sunset, a newborn baby, or the last-second shot that wins the game, we grab their attention and say, “You’ve got to come see this!” We want to share our excitement and joy with others. This is what Andrew did. Andrew had just met Jesus and spent time with him. Once Andrew understood and believed who Jesus truly was—the Lamb of God and the promised Savior—he couldn’t keep the news to himself. He immediately ran to find his brother, Simon Peter, with the excited announcement, “We’ve found the Messiah!” and urged him, “Come and see.” Do you feel that sharing Jesus is complicated? Do you feel unready? Unprepared? Andrew’s invitation was simple and full of heart. There was no pressure, no argument. He radiated the pure joy of encountering someone who transforms lives. This is still how faith is shared today. It does not start with a heated debate or a clever argument—it begins through genuine relationships. When people notice the peace, the hope, and quiet joy that shape your life, they become curious about what makes the difference. Their curiosity opens a door for a simple, heartfelt invitation. You don’t need all the answers or perfect words. You just need to know Jesus. Sharing Jesus does not have to be complicated. It can start with the most natural impulse in the world—an invitation: “Come and see.” This is an open invitation—not just at Advent but year-round. Come and see the One who took your place. Come and see the One who forgives your guilt. Come and see the One who gives your life meaning, direction, and hope. And then—go and tell. When you’ve met the Savior, you’ve got something truly worth sharing. Prayer: Jesus, thank you for inviting me to come and see your grace. Fill me with joy and courage to share you with others. Amen.

Learn what cadence actually is, why 180 SPM is useful (but not an overnight fix), and how elasticity drills + metronome practice help you pick up rhythm without blowing up your aerobic effort. Coaches Caroline & Valerie break cadence down into simple progressions, explain why older runners stiffen (and how to reverse it), and give practical drills you can use today to make your easy runs feel easier and your speed work more effective.✅ Key takeaways ✅ Cadence = steps per minute; the magic zone many coaches reference is ~180 SPM but you progress there slowly. ✅ Building muscle elasticity (hops, ball-of-foot drills) reduces impact and delays fatigue — it's trainable, not only genetic. ✅ Use short cadence drills + a metronome before trying long stretches at higher SPM — don't force 180 overnight. ✅ Keep time-based long runs (e.g., two-hour runs) rather than chasing an arbitrary mile total if that's safer for you. ✅ Stop, reset, do a short drill if your form drifts on a long run — small mid-run corrections beat long recoveries. ✅ Test fueling and cadence in training, not on race day — everything is personal; experiment, measure, repeat.▶️ Free 30-Day RunRX Reboot - Skill , Strength & Self-Care https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0N-GZ0AosI&list=PLDPcF8ZrDdILC8bYyn2zR-4xvqKRzp2re ▶️ Join the RunRX Membership https://runrx.fit/join-runrxstrong

Send us a textWhat holds when everything else breaks? We walk through Job's story to confront loss, fragility, and the stubborn hope that grows where our strength ends. Instead of sugarcoating pain, we name it, sit with it, and ask better questions about God's purpose when explanations don't arrive on our schedule.We start with the shock of Job's total collapse—wealth, status, children, health, and friendship stripped away in a blink—and the mental and spiritual whiplash that follows. From there, we push back on the comfort myth of karma and the cultural idol of self-will. If life is just moral math, grace is unnecessary; if God is only a gift dispenser, faith crumbles when gifts go missing. We offer a different path: begin by thanking God in the middle of hardship. Not because pain is good, but because meaning can precede understanding and sovereignty can steady the soul before answers come.Anchored in Job 6:12, we explore why admitting “I am not brass or stone” is not defeat but wisdom. Human weakness is not a flaw to hide; it's the doorway to dependence. We unpack how depravity humbles our confidence in self-salvation and why new birth turns desire toward God. Along the way, we challenge harmful counsel that suspects secret sin and instead model presence, patience, and truthful encouragement. Strength is made perfect in weakness not by gritting our teeth but by leaning into the One who sustains us when we can't stand on our own.Listen for a grounded, tender exploration of suffering, sovereignty, and hope. If you're weary, wounded, or wrestling with God's will, you'll find language for lament and a pathway to resilient faith.

This week on The Right Fight Podcast, Kenny and Tammie talk about what it really means to trust again after you've been betrayed. They dig into the story of Joseph and his brothers, looking at how he handled the people who hurt him and what that teaches us about forgiveness and wisdom. It's not about pretending it didn't happen or ignoring red flags—it's about letting God show you when someone's heart has truly changed.

This week on the Let People Prosper Show, I sit down with someone who has lived enough life experience to fill three biographies: Dr. Meaghan Mobbs. She's a West Point grad, paratrooper, combat veteran of Afghanistan, clinical psychologist, humanitarian leader in Ukraine, national security advisor, and now one of the sharpest voices at the Independent Women's Forum. Her new report, Women and the West: Liberty, Tyranny, and True Liberal Values, is a wake-up call. It argues that women's rights are being quietly eroded inside the very societies that claim to be the most “progressive.” And she's right — something is slipping.This episode digs into the uncomfortable truth: freedom for women isn't collapsing in some distant corner of the world; it's being chipped away here at home under slogans like “equity,” “inclusion,” and “progress.” We talk about true liberalism (the good kind), the danger of what Meaghan calls “suicidal empathy,” why motherhood sharpened her perspective, and how Western civilization can still protect what made it great. It's an important conversation — and an encouraging one — at a moment when the West badly needs clarity.For more insights, visit vanceginn.com.

In this episode, we explore the in-between: the often misunderstood stage between pain relief and real, sustainable strength. This is the phase where people frequently get stuck, either pushing too hard too soon or relying on temporary fixes that never fully resolve the underlying issue. You'll learn why this space is essential, why it can feel confusing or uncomfortable, and how to move through it with clarity and confidence. We break down what actually needs to happen during this transition phase, how awareness shapes stability, and why easing effort often leads to deeper, more efficient strength gains. Whether you're recovering from pain, rebuilding your movement foundation, or learning how to load your system effectively, this episode sheds light on the principles that make progress not only possible, but lasting.  

Trusting your own progress is one of the fastest ways to grow. When you stop focusing only on what feels unfinished and start noticing the effort you bring into your days, your confidence rises. You act with more intention. You handle stress with more strength. You move toward your goals with a clearer mind. This message helps you see the real progress shaping your life so you can build momentum in a grounded and powerful way.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251204dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Restore us, O God; make your face shine on us, that we may be saved. Psalm 80:3 Restore Us, O God “Do you see me?” This silent question lingers behind many cries for help. In a world filled with overwhelming noise, loneliness, and struggle, people long to know that someone notices them. They want the comfort of knowing that someone genuinely cares. Psalm 80 gives voice to those who feel left behind and overlooked. They’ve wandered away from God. Surrounded by adversity, they are broken and lost. Still, they don’t give up. Instead of surrendering to despair and defeat, they cry out to God in prayer: “Restore us, O God! Make your face shine on us, that we may be saved.” This prayer paints a beautiful picture—God’s face shining upon his people. Rather than shining with anger or disappointment, God's face radiates love, joy, and grace. When God’s face shines on you, it means that he does see you. And seeing you, he smiles upon you, sings over you, and rejoices to rescue and restore you. Yet, how can sinful people like us stand in the brilliance of God’s presence and live? On our own, we cannot. We have failed to imitate his love and have turned away from him. Like Israel, we experience the consequences—broken relationships, heavy hearts, and lingering guilt. Despite our sinfulness, Advent brings hope. The face of God has already shone on this world—in the face of Jesus Christ. He came into our darkness to bring light. He came, not to condemn but to restore. He carried our sin and shame and rose again to give us peace. Even when we feel lost or forgotten, God hears our prayers for restoration. Through Jesus, God truly sees you—and in seeing you, he forgives you, welcomes you, and rejoices over you. As you wait for Jesus to come again, you do not wait alone or in the dark. You wait enveloped in the warmth of God’s grace. Prayer: Lord, when I feel far from you, turn my heart back. Restore me by your mercy. Let your face shine on me through Jesus, my Savior. Amen.

Discover the power of praise and the importance of trusting in God's promises to transform a weary soul. The CAUSES of a Weary Soul: (1) WICKEDNESS (Psalm 38:4-6), (2) the WORLD, and (3) WORK. The CURE for a weary soul is the strength of the Lord (Isaiah 40:29-31, John 16:33). The immediate CURE for a weary soul is PRAISE (Psalm 34:1-6, 100:4, Matthew 6:9, Isaiah 61:3, Philippians 3:1, 4:4). We can PRAISE because: (1) GOD IS WITH US (Isaiah 41:10, 43:2), and (2) GOD IS WORKING (John 5:17), and (3) GOD WILL WIN.

The way you breathe directly determines how efficiently your body stabilizes your core, aligns your spine, and generates strength during movement Coordinating your breath with each lift or motion activates deep core muscles, improving posture, balance, and injury prevention while keeping your nervous system calm and focused Faulty breathing habits such as chest breathing or breath-holding restrict oxygen flow, tighten neck and back muscles, and reduce your power output and endurance Breathing too deeply or too often disrupts the natural balance between oxygen and carbon dioxide (CO2), narrowing blood vessels and lowering brain oxygen levels — the opposite of what most people intend when they "breathe deeply" Relearning to breathe lightly, rhythmically, and through your nose retrains your diaphragm, balances your CO2 levels, and builds both physical strength and mental stability for lasting energy and control

Women of Strength, you won't want to miss this one!!In today's episode of The VBAC Link Podcast, we welcome Sarah, a mom of three boys, an active duty Air Force officer (AND a spouse to one as well!) about her incredible VBA2C during an overseas PCS move from South Korea to Florida. Sarah's first birth was a c-section for breech presentation. Her second was a scheduled c-section timed around her husband's deployment. Her third pregnancy brought navigating prenatal care in a foreign country, a huge move with two toddlers in tow, and the stress of finding a completely new birth team. After Sarah's water broke unexpectedly at 37 weeks while visiting family in Kentucky, and with all their belongings either in Arizona or on a boat in the Pacific, she was induced so she could labor while a VBAC-supportive doctor was on call. After 11 hours on Pitocin, she delivered her baby vaginally, finished the move and arrived in Florida when her newborn was just one week old. Sarah & Meagan also share tips about using nitrous oxide in labor and important Tricare resources for military families. Though there were wild twists and turns, Sarah got her especially redemptive moment of being fully present for the moment she introduced her new baby to her other boys.

The Mindset Debrief | Doing It All Alone Is Breaking YouSelf-reliance is often praised as strength, yet many adults quietly turn it into a constant survival strategy. What begins as independence can slowly shift into isolation, and most people never notice the moment when self-discipline turns into self-damage. This episode explores why high performers often carry everything alone, and how that habit can erode clarity, creativity, and emotional stability over time.Examine the subtle ways independence starts taking more than it gives. How silence can disguise itself as focus, how isolation can look like discipline, and why doing everything alone slowly narrows your perspective. This episode challenges the belief that strength requires solitude and offers a mindset shift that rebuilds resilience without sacrificing independence.The heart of this episode centers on a simple idea: you're a rough draft of the person you're becoming, and your growth depends on more than your ability to grind through challenges alone. You'll learn how to recognize the early signs of emotional isolation, how to replace pressure with clarity, and why support is a strategic tool for personal and professional growth.If you've ever pushed through exhaustion, withheld your struggles, or believed you had to carry everything yourself, this episode will speak directly to you. It invites you to rethink what strength really is, and it offers a practical, hopeful path forward.This episode is designed for anyone who cares about leadership, mindset, emotional intelligence, and personal growth. It's a reminder that you don't grow by standing alone, you grow by standing open: open to perspective, open to connection, and open to becoming something more.Share this episode with someone who could benefit from the information.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:IG: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.comSPONSORS:Blue Line RoastingGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://bluelineroasting.comPromocode: Transition10

Key Takeaways: Decentralized Value Creation: Money can be created and used anywhere people trust each other and have valuable assets, not just through central banks. Why Debt Restructuring Matters: Sometimes the financial system must reset or adjust debt so it matches real economic output and avoids major problems. Treasuries and Mortgages Keep Things Steady: These tools help keep money flowing smoothly in the economy and are important for overall stability. Bitcoin as Digital Energy: Bitcoin works as a secure, non-political type of collateral that doesn't rely on debt and can be used worldwide. Stronger Financial Networks: A system with many independent financial nodes—rather than one central authority—can create a more flexible and resilient economy.

MAXOUT Your Mind Masterclass: Reprogram Your Mind for Strength, Faith and a Bigger Future Have you ever stopped to think about the story you've been telling yourself about who you are and what your life is supposed to look like? In this episode, I get real with you about something that quietly shapes your identity, your emotions, your decisions, and ultimately your destiny. You are living inside a narrative right now, and most of the time you never question whether that story is even true. Today, I'm going to show you how to break that pattern, rewrite the script, and step into the life you were born to live. As human beings, we are running patterns almost every minute of the day. Most of your thoughts, your behaviors, even the way you speak to yourself, is the result of a story you formed years ago. Maybe that story came from trauma. Maybe it came from a mistake. Maybe it came from a victory you keep clinging to. But here's the truth. You are the lead character in the story of your life. And if that story no longer serves you, you have the power to rewrite it. You are not stuck. You are one decision away from changing your entire trajectory. In this Masterclass, I walk you through the exact questions I've used in my own life to break free from narratives that held me back. I share how your mind works, why your reticular activating system keeps confirming what you already believe, and how you can interrupt that cycle. You will learn how to evaluate the story you're living, how old it is, and whether it still has a place in your future. Most importantly, you will learn how to build a new story that serves you emotionally, spiritually, financially, and relationally. I also give you the tools to anchor that new story into your heart and your physiology so it becomes your new pattern. This is not about hype. This is about transformation. If you have ever felt invisible, hurt, or held back by circumstances you never asked for, this episode is your wake up call. You were born to do something great with your life. You are not a victim. You are not a side character. You are the one who can change your family, your future, and your legacy forever. My friend, you are one plot twist away from a completely different life. Grab the pen. It is time to write it. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why your life is shaped by the story you tell yourself How the reticular activating system confirms your beliefs The five questions that expose whether your story is true or useful How to emotionally anchor a new identity so it becomes your new pattern Why physical peak states are the secret weapon for mental reprogramming The four characters you can become in the future and how to choose the right one Why your dreams are a preview of what is truly possible for you

As we continue to follow the missions of Paul and Barnabas, Fr. Mike highlights the fickle nature of humanity and the futility of striving for the praise of men.
