Building Independence & Culture: Inside PHYT Collective with Ashley Speights In this episode, Danny sits down with Ashley Speights, PT Biz coach and founder of PHYT Collective in Washington, D.C. Ashley shares how she built her 4,000 sq ft practice during the pandemic, structured a unique contractor-based collective model, and created a culture of independence, collaboration, and empowerment. They explore the realities of running a clinic in a high-cost city, setting compensation models that work, and why listening deeply to patients creates lifelong loyalty.

Colin Fisher, author of The Collective Edge, reveals why teams—not lone geniuses—drive innovation, how group identities invisibly shape our behavior, and why structure beats process when it comes to collaboration. With lessons drawn from Harry Potter, jazz improvisation, and decades of research, this episode explores the hidden power of teams and how to unleash it. ©2025 Behavioral Grooves Topics [0:00] Introduction: Your Invited to a Behavioral Grooves Celebration!

How can consciousness emerge from non-conscious material? If there is only one type of stuff, how is the potential for consciousness encoded in the building blocks of the universe?In this episode we have the ancient philosophical mind-body problem to get our heads around, and the ever more popular solution, panpsychism: That is, the belief that everything material, no matter how small, has always had a component of consciousness in it. We get into what consciousness is, why it's not an illusion; into subjective experience; we cover the rich history of the mind-body problem in philosophy, and we also confront the apparently magical emergence of consciousness from non-consciousness by exploring the arguments for panpsychism, and how new understandings from the last 100 years of science might change preconceptions about a panpsychist solution.Fortunately, to understand this we have the hugely experienced author and analytical philosopher of mind, for many years at the university of Oxford and now at the university of Texas, professor Galen Strawson! Alongside over 140 papers, he has also written 12 books including “Consciousness and its place in nature”, “Things that bother me: Death, Freedom, the self etc” and his new book “Stuff, Quality and Structure”.What we discuss:00:00 intro05:30 ‘Naturalism' as a position.07:00 Qualia explained.09:30 There's only one kind of stuff: identity metaphysics.12:00 A criticism of life as narrative story.14:30 what is the self?17:20 There is no mystery of consciousness.19:15 Locke's Primary and Secondary Qualities clarified.21:45 The history of the mind-body problem.27:30 The interaction problem VS the combination problem.30:30 Radical emergence of consciousness from non-consciousness is impossible.32:30 The arguments for panpsychism.34:00 Psychophysical laws - David Chalmers.35:00 The rise of panpsychism.36:30 Different types of panpsychism.41:30 Separating between conscious stuff, and subjects of consciousness.48:30 Cosmopansychism - patterns of excitation in the quantum field.50:00 Cellular cognition - Agential behaviour is not proof of experience.54:00 ‘Matter is energy' assists panpsychist intuitions.56:15 Who demands evidence is begging the question.01:02:30 “A Global Replace” of consciousness in matter.01:03:30 How would a world of panpsychist science look?01:06:30 Neuroscience: neural correlate reductionism.01:09:30 Feelings evolved before reasoning.01:11:30 Being is energy; being is becoming; being is qualititivity; being is mind.01:13:15 A cosmological mind.01:16:15 Teleology and Meaning.Quote:Lee Smolen, “Qualia must be understood as aspects of nature, that is our commitment to naturalism, the philosophy that asserts that all that exists is part of the natural world science studies.”References: Galen Strawson, “Mental Reality”, 1994Galen Strawson, “Against Narrativity” paper. 2004Galen Strawson, “Realistic monism - why physicalism entails panpsychism”, 2006Galen Strawson, “Mind and Being, The Primacy of panpsychism”, 2017

If you're a coach, blogger, or online entrepreneur struggling to make consistent income from your digital products, you're not alone. Most creators try to sell one digital product and fail because they're missing a crucial piece of the puzzle: a systematic approach that transforms low-paying customers into high-value clients. In my latest episode of The Blogger Genius Podcast, I revealed the exact AI-powered system that successful creators use to build $10,000+ monthly businesses. This isn't theory—it's the proven strategy that MiloTree users like Sarah have used to grow from 200 email subscribers to $11,000 monthly revenue in just six months. In this post, we'll unpack how to create a digital product ladder, use AI to build your entire system, and leverage MiloTree to handle all the tech without the headache. Show Notes: MiloTree Free Plan Digital Product Ladder AI Prompt (Free Download) 6 Purchasing Triggers Test Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: iTunes YouTube Spotify Why Most Digital Product Creators Fail (And How to Avoid Their Mistakes) The biggest mistake creators make is building products they're passionate about instead of solving problems people actually pay to solve. Before you create anything, your digital product idea must pass what I call the “Purchasing Triggers Test.” Your product needs to do at least two of these six things: Make someone money Save them money Save them time Move them toward happiness Move them away from pain Raise their social status If your idea doesn't hit at least two triggers, don't build it. You'll waste months creating something nobody wants to buy. Let's test this with a real example: “Time Management for Busy Moms” ✅ Save them time? Absolutely ✅ Move them toward happiness? Yes (less stress, more family time) ✅ Move them away from pain? Yes (overwhelm and guilt) This passes with flying colors because it hits three triggers. The Digital Product Ladder System That Creates $10K Months Here's what successful creators understand that others don't: instead of selling one product, they build a digital product ladder. This system starts with a free valuable resource and guides customers through increasingly valuable solutions at higher price points. The magic happens when someone who downloads your free guide eventually becomes a $2,000 mastermind member. That's how you reach $10,000 monthly revenue—not by selling a million $10 products. The 6-Step Digital Product Ladder Framework Step 1: Free Valuable Resource (Freebie) Solves one specific problem Delivers a quick, tangible win Gets people on your email list Step 2: Tripwire Product ($7-$27) Small purchase on your thank-you page Naturally follows from the freebie Turns subscribers into buyers Step 3: Product Bundle ($47-$97) Combines multiple resources Provides comprehensive results Higher perceived value Step 4: Mini Course or Coaching Package ($197-$497) Structured learning experience Leads customers toward membership More hands-on support Step 5: Monthly Membership ($27-$97/month) Ongoing support and community Recurring revenue stream Builds long-term relationships Step 6: Premium Mastermind ($997-$2,997) High-touch program For serious implementers Your highest revenue generator The AI Prompt That Builds Your Entire Business Model in 30 Seconds Here's the game-changing AI prompt that creates your complete digital product ladder system. Simply go to ChatGPT (the free version works fine) and enter this prompt with your specific details: “I want to create a complete digital product ladder for [YOUR NICHE/TOPIC]. Help me design a six-step customer journey that transforms a free subscriber into a high-value customer. Step 1: Create a valuable freebie that solves one specific pain point and delivers a quick, tangible win. Step 2: Design a tripwire product that's something small I can sell on the thank-you page after someone joins my list. This product should naturally follow from the freebie and provide deeper value. Step 3: Develop a product bundle that combines multiple resources for comprehensive results. Step 4: Structure a mini course or coaching package that ultimately leads customers into joining my membership. Step 5: Design a monthly membership that provides ongoing support and community. Step 6: Create a premium mastermind or high-touch program for serious implementers. For each step, provide the product concept, main benefits, suggested price, and how it connects to the next level.”   How MiloTree Eliminates the Tech Overwhelm The biggest obstacle most creators face isn't knowing what to create—it's the technical setup. How do you actually build all this without getting overwhelmed by complicated tech? This is where MiloTree becomes your secret weapon. You can set up each step of your ladder—from your freebie to your mastermind membership—right inside MiloTree without needing a website or expensive tech tools.

In this introduction to the Book of Daniel, we're challenged to live with clarity, conviction, and purpose in an increasingly secular world. The message emphasizes God's sovereignty and faithfulness, even during times of exile and oppression. We're reminded of the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants, highlighting God's unconditional love for His people alongside the importance of obedience. The story of Daniel and his friends serves as a inspiring example of maintaining faith in a hostile culture, teaching us to stand firm in our beliefs while navigating complex societal pressures. This exploration of Daniel invites us to reflect on our own spiritual journey, encouraging us to listen for God's 'still, small voice' amidst the noise of our daily lives and to trust in His divine plan, even when circumstances seem challenging.ChaptersChapter 1: Understanding God's Message in a Noisy World0:00 - 10:00Introduction to the importance of clarity, conviction, and purpose in Christian life, using the analogy of decoding a Morse code message.Chapter 2: The Structure and Significance of the Old Testament10:00 - 20:00Overview of the Old Testament structure and the placement of the Book of Daniel.Chapter 3: Covenants and Prophecy in Biblical History20:00 - 30:00Explanation of the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants, and their role in understanding biblical prophecy.Chapter 4: Daniel's Relevance for Modern Christian Living30:00 - 40:00Application of Daniel's teachings to contemporary Christian life in a secular world.Keywords#BookOfDaniel#Prophecy#Sovereignty#Faith#BibleStudy#Clarity#Conviction#Purpose#OldTestament#Eschatology#AbrahamicCovenant#MosaicCovenant#Babylon#Exile#SpiritualWarfare#Angels#Faithfulness#GodsPlan#ChristianLiving#BibleInterpretation

“The Gospel Is…” (Romans 1:16–17)In this episode we unpack Paul's thesis for Romans: the gospel is God's power to save because it reveals God's righteousness. We trace how salvation is offered to everyone who believes, why “the righteousness of God” is good news (God's character, God's saving action, and God's gift), and how the just live—now and forever—by faith.Romans 1:16–17; 3:22, 26 • Ephesians 2:5 • 1 Corinthians 1:18 • Romans 13:11 • Philippians 3:9 • Habakkuk 2:4 • Galatians 3:11The gospel is God's powerful means of salvation because it reveals His righteous way of putting sinners right with Himself—received by faith alone. “The righteous (by faith) shall live.”Unashamed of the Gospel (v.16)Paul's confidence despite opposition; the gospel is God's power, not self-help.Goal: full salvation—justification, reconciliation, redemption, transformation—past, present, future.Scope: offered to everyone who believes; to the Jew first and also to the Gentile.Why the Gospel Saves (v.17)It reveals the righteousness of God—the thesis of Romans.Attribute: God is righteous and just; at the cross He is “just and the justifier.”Activity: God keeps covenant, rescues His people, defeats evil.Achievement/Gift: a righteous status from God, granted by grace through faith.Received by FaithHabakkuk 2:4 in context: trust God amid injustice.Paul's application: the one declared righteous by faith truly lives.Structure of Romans: chs. 1–4 (faith → righteousness); chs. 5–8 (righteousness → life).The gospel doesn't merely offer power; it is God's power.Salvation is comprehensive: rescued from wrath and restored to God.God's righteousness is not earned; it's given.Faith is the empty hand that receives Christ—and then walks in new life.Where are you tempted to be “ashamed” of the gospel, and why?Which aspect of God's righteousness (attribute, activity, gift) most encourages you today?How does “the righteous by faith shall live” shape your week practically?

Send us a text00:00:00 - Surf's Up, Season 6, Episode 12This week's episode is a special three-part roundtable on the implications of the FDA's recent approval of semaglutide. Naim Alkhouri, Manal Abdelmalek, Scott Isaacs and Zobair Younossi join Roger Green in a discussion that focuses less on specifics of pharmacotherapy and more on how having two drugs available will change MASH management in the US.00:08:45 - Part I: How Will The Semaglutide Approval Affect Patient Treatment and Pharmacotherapy?The group starts by describing the sense of "enthusiasm" and "fulfillment" hepatology drug developers feel to see two drugs approved in the US and many other major changes to come (more drug approvals, FDA acceptance of a path to approval that is not based on liver biopsy). One interesting takeaway is that while the approval of semaglutide will likely change the number of patients treated with MASH pharmacotherapy, the greater impact of this approval will be on public awareness of MASH and the accompanying demand for treatment. In terms of actual drug use, the first major change will come among patients living with obesity but not Type 2 diabetes. Most of these patients previously saw their semaglutide prescriptions rejected for payment by health insurers. However, many of these patients will be living with MASH, and they are likely to see their prescriptions approved. Instead, the largest impact may involve increased education and awareness. Scott pointed out that endocrinologists, who frequently prescribe incretin agonists, will have reason to learn how to diagnose and manage MASH in patients they already treat. Zobair noted that an array of companies, starting with pharmaceutical manufacturers and scanning companies, will dramatically increase investments in prescriber and patient education.00:25:30 - Part II: How the Structure of Medical Practice Is Likely To ChangeNaim states that many hepatologists are currently uncomfortable managing patients on GLP-1 agonists. This will need to change. Manal points out that providers must check for cirrhosis when testing for MASH and understand how to respond accordingly. An increase in the number of providers having access to in-office scanning devices will facilitate this process. Zobair states that even if all related specialists integrate MASH into their practices, the actual patient care demand will require alternative pathways in which the responsibility for patient care will rest with specialist APPs. After Naim Alkhouri describes some of the differences between resmetirom and semaglutide in terms of practical treatment decisions, the discussion focuses on why MASLD and MASH will create unique challenges for hepatology practices. Manal views the issue as a matter of time; practices cannot absorb large numbers of new, non-urgent patients. Naim suggests that the real issue is the business question: specialists today do not profit simply from treating patients. Zobair agrees with Naim and notes that the challenge is not unique to hepatology. He expresses the hope that AI and efficient database management will make it easier to target patients, screen, diagnose and treat them. 00:44:17 - Part III: What Happens Next?In this final section, panelists identify some of the changes they foresee if we are to manage the tsunami of undiagnosed MASLD patients. Many of the comments touch on themes discussed earlier in this episode, but a couple are unique. Zobair states we must remember that the vast majority of MASLD patients will never develop MASH. Manal foresees a more sophisticated approach to selecting pharmacotherapies as prescribers have a broader set of options, each with its own benefits and drawbacks.

On this episode of the Passive Income Playbook, Pascal Wagner interviews Chris Reece about lending against cannabis-licensed real estate and why he underwrites properties to an alternative (non-cannabis) use to de-risk senior mortgages on stabilized assets. They dig into MJ REIT's evergreen, 506(c) structure—monthly subscriptions/redemptions, no lockup, a $25k minimum—and its goal of double-digit annualized distributions (11.27% net since inception) paid monthly. Chris contrasts construction lending vs. stabilized assets, explains how federal illegality (Schedule I/280E, SAFE Banking stalls) shapes the opportunity, and why today's “gray zone” may persist for several years even as state markets expand. The conversation closes with how LPs should diligence cannabis debt funds: team/IC depth, conservative LTVs, consistency through cycles, and alignment on risk.

In this week's episode of the podcast, we dive deep into the tricky tightrope walk of balancing structure and flexibility at home—because let's be honest, parenting (and homeschooling) neurodivergent kids isn't for the faint of heart! This episode is your breathe-and-hit-reset permission slip. Here's a peek at what we covered:   Structure is Comforting… Until It Isn't Structure helps our kids (and us!) feel safe. Predictable routines can seriously reduce anxiety, especially for those with executive functioning challenges, ADHD, autism, or sensory processing issues. But too much rigidity? It can spark rebellion, burnout, and meltdowns—especially with creative, passionate, gifted kids.   What Does Flexibility Really Mean? Flexibility doesn't mean winging it! It means responsive teaching—letting your child's needs, interests, and even energy levels guide your day. I share my own family's rhythm, from color-coded calendars to built-in time for unexpected appointments and sibling support.   Practical Strategies to Try Now Here are some actionable takeaways to help you find your family's sweet spot: Start with Your “Must Do's”: Define your “minimum viable day”—the simplest version of what needs to happen (e.g., a little reading, writing, and math). Ease into your routine and build up slowly. Anchors, Not Timetables: Instead of strict schedules, anchor your day around meals, read-alouds, or physical routines. Visual Tools & Ownership: Use checklists, whiteboards, or color-coded calendars so your kids know what's on deck. Support Executive Function: Scaffold routines gently and model breaking big tasks into small steps. Embrace Interest-Led Learning: Let your child's passions drive parts of the curriculum for greater engagement. Built-in Downtime: Everyone—including you!—needs breaks to recharge.   You're Not Alone (Even When It Feels Like It) If your Instagram doesn't look like those homeschool highlight reels, that's normal. Messy days aren't failures—they're feedback.   Looking for More Support? If you want ongoing resources, coaching, or community, check out the Learner's Lab or subscribe to our email list for info on upcoming small group cohorts for middle/high schoolers and executive function workshops. You're the perfect parent for your child—just as you are. Give yourself grace, celebrate the small wins, and remember: structure and flexibility are both just tools.   Links and Resources from Today's Episode Thank you to our sponsors: CTC Math – Flexible, affordable math for the whole family!

Join Dave and Bethlie as they embark on this multi-part series on the book Shepherding a Child's Heart by Tedd Tripp. What is the point of the book? It is written to parents with children of any age and provides perspectives and procedures for shepherding your child's heart into the paths of life. Several things stand out in Part 1 His comments about Behavior on page 4 If behavior becomes our only focus, we miss an important part of training “Parents often get sidetracked with behavior. If your goal in discipline is changed behavior, it is easy to understand why this happens.   . . . You think you have corrected when you have changed unacceptable behavior to behavior that you sanction and appreciate. “What is the problem? You ask. The problem is this: Your child's needs are far more profound than his aberrant behavior . . . If you are to really help him, you must be concerned with the attitudes of heart that drive his behavior. “ “A change in behavior that does not stem from a change in heart is not commendable; it is condemnable.” Don't miss the balance there . . . “What must you do in correction and discipline? You must require proper behavior. God's law demands that. You cannot, however, be satisfed to leave the matter there. You must help your child . . . expose the attitude of the heart that has resulted in wrong behavior.” A few suggestions from be and Bethlie If your child is younger, behavior is the first priority. They don't understand yet, but you can't wait until they have the capacity to reason and think.  You will be way behind if you do.  So go ahead and focus on their behavior. Give me your attention. As they then begin to grow and understand, you can then begin working on their heart.   Give me your heart His comments about influences that shape who a person is and what they become as a result What are the influences?

A Note from JamesThere's always been debate about whether college is worth it. But what if there's a better alternative—one that actually prepares you to become the person you want to be? My good friend Matt Smith just wrote a book with Doug Casey called The Preparation. It's not theory—he's been putting his own son through it as a real-world experiment. Instead of college, Maxim has spent the past two years learning skills like EMT training, firefighting, building houses, working cattle, and even launching a business. This is a practical roadmap for turning those years of 18–22 into a hero's journey. I loved this conversation, and I'm sending the book to all of my kids.Episode DescriptionJames talks with entrepreneur and writer Matt Smith about his new book The Preparation, co-authored with Doug Casey. The book lays out a four-year alternative to college built around “cycles”—three-month intensive experiences designed to build practical skills, personal codes, and real-world wisdom. From earning an EMT license to fighting wildfires, training in Muay Thai, or running a small business, these cycles are designed to help young people become independent, capable, and resilient. James and Matt discuss why the traditional college path often fails, how to build a personal code of values, and why the future belongs to “expert generalists” who know how to learn across disciplines.What You'll LearnWhy “be, do, have” is a more powerful framework for life than chasing possessions or credentials.How creating a personal code builds self-respect and identity.Why intergenerational relationships matter more than peer validation.How cycles of hands-on learning—from EMT work to entrepreneurship—prepare young people better than a classroom ever could.Why becoming an expert generalist is the best hedge against a future dominated by AI and automation.Timestamped Chapters[00:00] A Note from James: College vs. alternatives[01:00] Introducing Matt Smith and The Preparation[03:00] Origins of the book and Doug Casey's vision[05:00] Writing the book for his son Maxim[06:00] Why homeschooling replaced high school[07:00] “Be, Do, Have” explained[09:00] Stacking cycles vs. stacking skills[10:00] Why the book focuses on young men (and how women can adapt it)[11:00] How to build your own cycle[13:00] Why traditional education fails to prepare people for real skills[14:00] Establishing a personal code[16:00] Examples of personal rules for self-respect[18:00] Practicing courage and choosing virtues[20:00] Skills Maxim has gained so far—EMT, chess, horses, firefighting[22:00] Adventures with Doug Casey and small-country nation building[24:00] Maxim's cycles: EMT work, ranch apprenticeship, wildfire EMT[27:00] Structure, resistance, and learning by doing[28:00] Shelter Institute and learning to build a house[29:00] Entrepreneurship cycle: precision agriculture with drones[31:00] Lessons from entrepreneurship[32:00] Muay Thai training in Thailand[33:00] Cooking school in Florence[34:00] Travel with purpose vs. aimless wandering[36:00] James on biographies and meaningful decisions[37:00] Preparing for AI and the future of work[39:00] Why being an “expert generalist” matters[41:00] Learning how to learn across environments[42:00] The problem with peer-only education[44:00] Intergenerational relationships as mentorship[45:00] What comes after the preparation[47:00] Why the program can work for adults too[49:00] Rethinking retirement as another cycle of preparation[56:00] Matt's personal growth through writing and learning new skills[58:00] Designing The Preparation as a beautiful, interactive book[59:00] Closing thoughts and sending the book to the next generationAdditional ResourcesMatt Smith & Doug Casey — The PreparationDoug Casey's Take (Podcast): YouTube ChannelDoug Casey's Official Site: internationalman.comThe Shelter Institute (Learn to Build a House): shelterinstitute.comMuay Thai Training in Thailand (Example School): Santai Muay Thai GymFlorence Cooking School Example: Apicius International School of HospitalityStripe Press (Books mentioned by Matt): stripe.pressDoug Casey's Classic Book — Crisis Investing: AmazonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send us a textWhat are you truly hungry for? That's the question that drives this deeply introspective exploration of how our brains become trapped in cycles of avoidance and momentary pleasure. Your brain doesn't distinguish between sources of dopamine—whether from sugar, alcohol, or avoiding difficult sales conversations. The glass of wine wasn't about the taste; it was about not feeling lonely. The second plate wasn't about hunger; it was about silencing shame. Avoiding asking for the sale wasn't about the client; it was about protecting yourself from rejection. When you name what you're truly avoiding, these cravings begin to lose their power.Comfort feels safe, but functions like a barbed wire cage. It promises protection while imprisoning you in patterns that steal your future happiness. The late-night cupcake gives thirty seconds of pleasure but hours of regret. The "one more drink" becomes a cycle that robs you of clarity. The avoidance of asking for the sale feels temporarily safe, but it deprives you of results. These small choices you avoid today become your regrets tomorrow.Breaking free requires recognizing that pain isn't punishment—it's a doorway to growth. The discomfort of withdrawals, whether from substances or the anxiety of asking for a sale, signals transformation. Structure becomes your lifeline, providing the framework for sustainable change. Whether through recovery meetings or following sales processes, freedom isn't found in chaos but built through consistent structure. Every morning presents a choice: numb or grow, drink or recover, hide or ask for the sale. If you can survive addiction, you can survive discomfort. If you can survive discomfort, you can win the sale. And if you can win the sale, you can build the life you've been starving for. When that craving comes, don't feed the fear—feed your freedom.Ready to break free from your dopamine traps?
