At the current moment, when expertise is under attack and the idea of truth is contested from all sides, Strevens explains the remarkable success of science's “irrational” method to settle debates, regardless of philosophical, religious, or aesthetic preferences.

At least 90% of aspiring management consultants assume that all McKinsey et al cases MUST be solved with frameworks. That is a dangerous myth. At least 60% of all McKinsey full cases (we are not referring to brainstorming, estimates, etc) cannot be solved with structures and you will fail if you used structures to solve them. In this podcast, we use the experiences of a client, Felix, to explain how to identify this second group of cases and what you can do to solve them. We particularly look at Felix's coaching session with Kevin Coyne, ex-McKinsey Worldwide Strategy Co-Leader, in Season One of The Consulting Offer.   Here are some free gifts for you:   Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach   McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf   Enjoying this episode?

 Are you clearing your emotional and energetic fields - consistently? What do you do when you get "gooped" by the world, a person, the news, the physical and virtual environments you find yourself in, or even by your own emotional triggers? "Gooped" is my partner Noah and my term for what happens to us when we get emotionally, mentally, energetically, and physically weighed down, swirled up, affected by external forces. In the times we live in, it's really wise to ask yourself: What am I doing to keep my energy clear?Are my energetic and emotional boundaries strong? How do I know when they are weak? And how do I strengthen them. For this conversation, I brought on Noah Martin, my partner in life, love and business because he's super wise in these realms we will explore: What it means to be “gooped”. How to know when you are gooped up? How does it happen? What do you do in the moment or as prevention to keep the external forces from knocking you off kilter? Consider this: This energetic, emotional and mental "gooping" is often invisible to our eyes - we don't see it, but DO we feel it? But if you don't know the signs that you've been de-harmonized or 'affected' with interference, you get pulled down and swirled around and cannot operate as your wisest and most radiant self. Once you know the signs and know what to do to recenter, you gain power to stay clear and rooted even in the intensity.   Clearing your emotional and energetic fields is a must in our world today; just like you brush your teeth and get in your daily steps. On today's podcast, (pulled from our Wisdom Library), we'll explore how to care for your emotional and energetic bodies by looking at: Wisdom About Energy - what we need to know about our energetic connections and energy fields, and how they interact with other people and situations. 5 Kinds of Boundaries - Emotional, Mental, Energetic, Physical and Environment. How to work with yours, know when your boundaries have been breached and how to re-center and clear your field. Goop Prevention - what you can do proactively to not get gooped. Emergency Care & Cultivating Your Energetic Support Team and Structure - practices & modalities that can support you to clear your being, strengthen your internal system, and clear out energetic and emotional interference. Get your practitioners, practices, and people in place that will keep you at a high frequency. Build these into your daily, weekly, and monthly rhythm to support your radiance. Between now and the next episode, we invite you to contemplate the inquiry: What Do I Do When I Get Gooped? Awareness is the first step to making a shift, and by the end of this episode you will have the tools to bring awareness to what tends to goop you up. You'll also receive practices and resources to support you in clearing your emotional and energetic fields so that you can Stay Light. Join us!

Josh Neighbors joins 365 Sports to explain why the chaos around NIL, the transfer portal, and college football leadership has fans and coaches frustrated but not for the reasons you might think. He argues that it's not the money, but the lack of structure and accountability that's eroding trust in the system. Josh dives into what "guardrails" really mean, why employees vs. student-athlete status is the real legal battle, and how TV deals and leadership paralysis are slowing down meaningful reform.

In a recent Real Estate Business roundtable, Adrian Bo sat down with REB editor Liam Garman to reveal the foundational systems that have underpinned his decades-long success – and why short-term thinking is the biggest threat to a sustainable real estate career. Speaking to an exclusive audience of Australia's top agents, Bo argued that structure, not spontaneity, is the key to long-term performance, and that agents who commit to a non-negotiable process across prospecting, databasing, vendor management, and personal marketing are best positioned to thrive in a changing market. The roundtable also explored the rise of shallow coaching models, with Bo criticising “motivational slogans” that offer a dopamine hit without long-term change. He instead champions accountability as the true driver of success, whether through a coach, peer or structured system. Bo also warned agents not to over-rely on social media and digital marketing. While powerful as amplification tools, he said they should support – not replace – traditional prospecting and relationship-building. Enjoy the podcast, The REB team

Freedom is when your LAST NAME outlives you because of what YOU built. It's when your kids and your kids' kids ain't fighting for scraps, ‘cause you planted seeds in good soil. It's when you ain't scared to lose a job, ‘cause you own streams of income they can't take from you. That's when you stop surviving and start living. The keys to freedom? Mindset. Patience. Ownership. Legacy. Play the long game, because that's the Only Game that sets you free.THE STRUCTURE OF FREEDOM | Wallstreet Trapper (MASHUP EPISODE) Trappin Tuesday's

In this episode of The Tech Leader's Playbook, Avetis Antaplyan dives deep into the core leadership principle of extreme ownership. In this solo episode, Avetis, a seasoned entrepreneur and tech leader, delivers a powerful and unfiltered message on why every leader must take full responsibility for their culture, team performance, and company outcomes—regardless of external circumstances.He breaks down how blame limits growth, how silence equals agreement, and why leaders must set the tone through their energy and actions. Through real-world analogies and personal leadership philosophies, Avetis challenges listeners to stop outsourcing blame and instead reclaim control by owning every part of the organization's success—or failure. He emphasizes that toxic culture, lack of urgency, or underperformance are reflections of leadership neglect, and the fix starts at the top.Whether you're a CEO, founder, or team lead, this episode is a direct call to courage, clarity, and bold decision-making. If you're ready to elevate your leadership, tune in and learn how to become the thermostat—not the thermometer—in your company.TakeawaysExtreme ownership is the starting line for effective leadership.Blame is a ceiling on growth—leaders must take responsibility to evolve.Culture is a mirror of the leader; toxic teams reflect leadership gaps.Every issue—hiring, morale, results—can be traced back to leadership choices.Silence from a leader signals approval; address issues early and clearly.Responsibility isn't a burden—it's your power source as a leader.Don't settle in hiring; motivated teams start with intentional recruitment.Blaming external forces strips you of control; own the situation to fix it.Leaders must energize the team daily—your presence sets the tone.Asking your team “What did I do wrong?” creates space for honest feedback.Don't make 100 small decisions—make one bold, decisive move.Leadership isn't about guilt; it's about doing something now to shift outcomes.Chapters00:00 Intro & Leadership Mindset01:12 What Is Extreme Ownership?02:17 Culture Is a Mirror03:58 Underperformance Starts at the Top04:55 Silence Equals Agreement06:11 Structure and Ownership Create Freedom08:23 Reclaim the Steering Wheel09:35 Energy Sets the Tone10:26 Asking the Hard Questions11:40 Bold Leadership Is EverythingResources and Links:https://www.hireclout.comhttps://www.podcast.hireclout.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I am thrilled to wrap up our month-long series on the gifts of the Holy Spirit and their application in the business world. Today, we focus on the often-overlooked gifts that fuel operations—specifically, the gifts of administration, helps and serving, and discernment. I begin by emphasizing the critical role that structure plays in the success of any business. Many entrepreneurs possess the gifts of influence, sales, vision, and strategy, but they often lack the administrative skills necessary to maintain and grow their ventures.

Take a moment to reach out to the admins around you and let them know how valuable they are today!    00:00:01 - Welcome to Wisdom's Table Introduction to the podcast and overview of the series on spiritual gifts. 00:00:37 - Gifts That Fuel Your Operations Discussion on the importance of behind-the-scenes gifts in business. 00:01:40 - The Need for Structure in Business Exploration of why every business needs structure to thrive. 00:03:25 - Highlighting Spiritual Gifts Introduction to the three spiritual gifts being discussed: administration, helps/serving, and discernment. 00:03:36 - The Gift of Administration Explanation of the gift of administration and its significance in business operations. 00:05:12 - Natural vs. Spiritual Gifts Distinction between natural abilities and the Holy Spirit's gifts of administration. 00:06:47 - Practical Example of Administration Illustration of how effective administration can streamline business processes. 00:09:24 - The Gift of Helps and Serving Overview of the gift of helps and serving and its role in the workplace. 00:10:07 - The Gift of Discernment Introduction to the gift of discernment and its importance in distinguishing spirits. 00:11:32 - Distinguishing Discernment from Intuition Clarification on the difference between natural intuition and the Holy Spirit's gift of discernment. 00:13:07 - The Role of Discernment in Business Discussion on how discernment can impact business decisions and operations. 00:15:45 - The Importance of Administrators Recognition of administrators as unsung heroes in the business world. 00:17:29 - Characteristics of Administrators Exploration of the unique qualities and anointing of administrators. 00:19:14 - Building with Precision Discussion on the importance of precision in administration and how it reflects God's nature. 00:20:29 - Weaponizing Your Gifts Encouragement to use spiritual gifts as tools for advancing the kingdom of God. 00:21:34 - Closing Thoughts and Call to Action Final reflections on the series and an invitation to share the podcast.

In this episode Jeff and Brian and Jeff discuss uncommon ways to structure income in retirement and what to do if you lose your job just before you retire. 

Topics:Hybrid Model: PE + Search FundA Strong Operator ProfileEquity & Structure in Operator Deals...and so much more.Top TakeawaysSuccession is one of the biggest overlooked opportunities in the lower middle market. Over 50% of small business owners in the U.S. are nearing retirement age, but many lack a clear succession plan. For investors and operators, that's an opportunity. Firms like Novastone Partners are targeting founder-owned businesses with $15M–$40M in enterprise value, where the right leadership transition can unlock serious value.Founders trust operators who've walked in their shoes. Founders want someone they can trust to take over. That's why industry veterans often have an advantage. Operators in their 40s or 50s, with 20+ years in the same industry, can have peer-to-peer conversations with sellers from day one. They're seen as real successors, not just financial buyers.The search will test you more than the acquisition itself. The search phase is where most aspiring buyers drop off. It's long, unstructured, and full of dead ends. Even great operators can struggle if they underestimate how different sourcing is from leading. Don't go it alone.

In this episode, Stephen and Britain Covey dive into Getting Things Done (GTD) by David Allen, a groundbreaking book that redefines productivity. They explore how GTD isn't just about checking off tasks but about creating a trusted system to free your mind, reduce stress, and focus on what truly matters.  Stephen shares his personal connection with David Allen, having worked closely with him early in his career. Together, they unpack the core principles of GTD, from "appropriate engagement" to the five-step workflow, and how these concepts can transform your work, relationships, and daily life.  Through engaging storytelling and practical insights, this episode challenges the traditional view of productivity and offers a paradigm shift for managing your mind and tasks with clarity.

Economists and policy advisers have said that it is a strategic necessity for China to further scale back holdings in United States government debt in order to safeguard national financial stability, amid waning confidence in the dollar-based system and persistent geopolitical tensions.经济学家和政策顾问表示，在对以美元为基础的体系的信心减弱和持续的地缘政治紧张局势下，中国进一步缩减对美国政府债务的持有是一种战略必要性，以维护国家金融稳定。To pursue a more balanced, controllable allocation of foreign exchange reserves, the country is also likely to increase investments in non-dollar assets, including financial instruments of its Asian trading partners and crucial resources such as gold, energy and food, they added.他们补充说，为了实现更平衡、更可控的外汇储备分配，中国还可能增加对非美元资产的投资，包括其亚洲贸易伙伴的金融工具以及黄金、能源和粮食等关键资源。Yu Yongding, an academic member of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, called for China to continue reducing US government debt holdings in an orderly manner.中国社会科学院院士余永定呼吁中国继续有序减持美国国债。"The ideal approach would be to increase imports and utilize the excess foreign exchange reserves to purchase high-tech capital goods and strategic materials. This could require China to narrow its trade surplus, move toward a basic balance in the trade of goods and services, or even run a trade deficit for a while."“理想的做法是增加进口，利用多余的外汇储备购买高科技资本货物和战略物资。这可能需要中国缩小贸易顺差，实现商品和服务贸易的基本平衡，甚至在一段时间内出现贸易逆差。”"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. We must closely monitor the US fiscal situation and prepare contingency plans to avoid being caught off guard," Yu said.余表示：“非常时期需要非常措施。我们必须密切关注美国财政状况，制定应急计划，避免措手不及。”。After stepping back from being the second-largest holder of US debt to third place in March, China further reduced its holdings of US Treasury securities in May by $900 million, to $756.3 billion, the lowest since February 2009, when the reading was $744.2 billion, according to the US Department of the Treasury.根据美国财政部的数据，中国在3月份从美国债务的第二大持有者退居第三位后，5月份进一步减少了9亿美元的美国国债持有量，至7563亿美元，为2009年2月以来的最低水平，当时该数字为7442亿美元。The reduction bucked the overall rebound of foreign holdings in US debt after a drop in April. Foreign holdings of US Treasury securities increased from April's $9.013 trillion to $9.046 trillion in May, with major US debt holders such as Japan, the United Kingdom and Canada increasing their holdings.这一减少抵消了外国持有的美国债务在4月份下降后的整体反弹。外国持有的美债从4月份的9.013万亿美元增加到5月份的9.046万亿美元，日本、英国和加拿大等主要美国债务持有者增加了持有量。Wang Peng, an associate researcher at the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences, said that China's holding cut in May—the third consecutive month of decrease despite other major holders' increased exposure—stems from a continued effort to optimize the structure of foreign exchange reserves.北京社会科学院副研究员王鹏表示，尽管其他主要持有者的敞口增加，但中国5月份的减持是连续第三个月下降，这源于持续优化外汇储备结构的努力。The aim is to reduce the risks of overreliance on US government debt and limit potential economic losses from geopolitical tensions, including the risk of asset freezes in the event of US sanctions, Wang said, adding that the move also reflects concerns about growing US fiscal deficits and uncertainty about the US economy.王表示，此举的目的是降低过度依赖美国政府债务的风险，并限制地缘政治紧张局势造成的潜在经济损失，包括在美国制裁的情况下冻结资产的风险。他补充说，此举也反映了人们对美国财政赤字不断增长和美国经济不确定性的担忧。Pan Gongsheng, governor of the People's Bank of China, the nation's central bank, has pointed to the risks associated with the US dollar's dominance as the global reserve currency, saying last month that US fiscal and financial regulatory problems could spill over, while the dollar could be weaponized in geopolitical conflicts.中国央行中国人民银行行长潘功胜指出了美元作为全球储备货币的主导地位所带来的风险，他上个月表示，美国的财政和金融监管问题可能会蔓延，而美元可能会在地缘政治冲突中被武器化。Guan Tao, global chief economist at investment bank BOCI China, said there is no immediate risk of a US sovereign debt crisis, as market demand for US Treasuries remains strong, and US Treasury yields could fall if the US Federal Reserve cuts rates later this year. Bond yields move in the opposite direction of prices.投资银行中银国际中国（BOCI China）全球首席经济学家关涛（Guan Tao）表示，目前没有美国主权债务危机的风险，因为市场对美国国债的需求仍然强劲，如果美联储今年晚些时候降息，美国国债收益率可能会下降。债券收益率与价格走势相反。But the deeper concern, Guan said, is US debt's long-term sustainability. If US government debt keeps expanding without a path to stabilization, it will eventually trigger problems.但关表示，更令人担忧的是美国债务的长期可持续性。如果美国政府债务继续扩大而没有稳定的道路，最终将引发问题。Credit ratings agency Moody's downgraded the US credit rating to Aa1 in May, citing runaway deficits, while the US administration's massive tax-and-spending bill, effective this month, could intensify such concerns, as it is forecast to increase US federal deficits by more than $3 trillion over the next decade.信用评级机构穆迪在5月份将美国信用评级下调至Aa1，理由是赤字失控，而美国政府本月生效的巨额税收和支出法案可能会加剧这种担忧，因为预计未来十年美国联邦赤字将增加3万亿美元以上。Chen Weidong, director of the Research Institute of Bank of China, said, "As the third-largest holder of US Treasuries, China must build a multilayered, systematic strategy to guard against mounting risks tied to US sovereign debt and the dollar-based financial system.中国银行研究院院长陈卫东表示：“作为美国国债的第三大持有者，中国必须建立一个多层次、系统的战略，以防范与美国主权债务和以美元为基础的金融体系相关的日益增长的风险。"This is not only vital for China's financial security, but also has far-reaching implications for the evolution of the global financial order," Chen said, adding that China has cut its US Treasury holdings by over 40 percent since 2013.陈表示：“这不仅对中国的金融安全至关重要，而且对全球金融秩序的演变也有着深远的影响。”他补充说，自2013年以来，中国已将其持有的美国国债减少了40%以上。He said that key priorities for China going forward include gradually reducing US Treasury holdings, optimizing the dollar investment portfolio by allocating more to short-term securities, increasing non-dollar investments, and advancing renminbi internationalization.他说，中国未来的主要优先事项包括逐步减少美国国债持有量，通过将更多资金分配给短期证券来优化美元投资组合，增加非美元投资，以及推进人民币国际化。He also called for deepening financial cooperation within Asia—which together holds over 60 percent of global reserves in dollar-denominated assets—so that Asia can form an internal reserve circulation system and reduce its reliance on external markets.他还呼吁深化亚洲内部的金融合作，亚洲拥有全球60%以上的美元计价资产储备，这样亚洲就可以形成内部储备流通体系，减少对外部市场的依赖。China has been stepping up efforts to diversify its reserve assets. The country's official gold reserves rose for the eighth consecutive month to 73.9 million ounces at the end of June, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange said.中国一直在加紧努力，使其储备资产多样化。国家外汇管理局表示，截至6月底，该国官方黄金储备连续第八个月增长至7390万盎司。consecutiven.连续不断的/kənˈsɛkjʊtɪv/dollar-denominatedn.以美元标价的/ˈdɒlə dɪˈnɒmɪneɪtɪd/

In our compartmentalized world of health and medicine, including the so-called alternative, the bones of the matter have been relegated into their own category. However, the biomechanical structure can be seen more clearly in the context of the biochemical terrain and will be the subject of this King Hero interview of chiropractor, Steve Goeddeke.I met Steve because he's had success in combining the work of Dr. Garrett Smith on Toxic Bile Paradigm and his chiropractic practice. We will hear about his transition to a low-toxin diet, including reduced Vitamin A, and learn about his theories, techniques, and how his innovations are advancing the scope of how people can find better care for their frame.We will talk about the widespread prevalence of back issues, common “addiction” to chiropractic adjustments, how spinal alignment influences toxicity, and how toxicity may compromise it.Steve's bio:Steve Goeddeke is a chiropractor and innovator in manipulative therapy. Based in Grandville, Michigan, he has developed original techniques and theories that advance the art and science of chiropractic care. Known for his precision and creativity, Steve helps patients achieve lasting results and contributes fresh ideas to the profession.Over the past three years, Steve has began an adventure into low-vitamin A eating, using it to successfully resolve multiple chronic conditions that began in his 20s following attempts to “eat healthy”. After experiencing firsthand the damage caused by following trendy dietary and supplement advice, he has dug himself out of that “hole” and now shares his insights to help others navigate health choices more wisely.Follow Steve on X: @DrSteveGoeddekeWebsite: accelchiropractic.com ***Bumper music by Liam Martens, aka ツSaiko, sub to him here on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SA1KO0O1 ***MORE FROM BETHSign up to take a 5-minute King Hero's Journey archetype quizApply to become a member of the House of Free Will MinistryRumbleKing Hero Telegram ChannelTwitter (X)InstagramSign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype ReadingOrder a copy of my book, ‘Journey: A Map of Archetypes to Find Lost Purpose in a Sea of Meaninglessness'Donate by PayPal if you're inspiredFollow the King Hero's Journey Podcast on Apple Podcasts SpotifyBeing free is not a spectator sport - Hal Anthony, “Behind the Woodshed” beth-favicon***If we're just meeting...I'm Beth Martens, a pattern hunter, archetype reader, podcaster, author, coach trainer, and business coach, and my calling is a life or death thing.

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, hosts Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive deep into critical mindset, leadership, and business growth strategies for coaches aiming for six and seven-figure practices. They break down the psychology of self-sabotage, share frameworks to reprogram negative thinking, discuss the power of humility, and reveal why breaking complexity into "threes" is a game-changer in coaching and business leadership. The episode also offers tactical advice on creating effective demonstrations for client acquisition, maximizing wealth, and learning from industry giants like Elon Musk. Key Topics Covered Overcoming Self-Sabotage in Coaching Karl Bryan and Rode Dog outline a four-step mental pattern for self-sabotage, including how coaches attach setbacks to their identity and spiral into negative action. The solution: shift focus to learnings and gratitude, solidify a stronger self-identity, practice self-forgiveness, and set big, audacious goals to play bigger. The Power of the “Three Framework” The hosts explain why breaking concepts into sets of three—be it frameworks, leadership techniques, or messaging—enhances recall and action. Examples abound, from “lead gen, conversion, fulfillment” to Amazon's focus on “low prices, vast selection, fast delivery.” Zen and Humility in Business They discuss how humility is a superpower for entrepreneurs seeking long-term wealth and freedom—not just flashy material wins. Professionals focus on what could go wrong, guard their wealth, and aim for optionality, not just accumulation. Amateur vs. Pro Mindset Amateurs practice until they get it right; pros practice until they can't get it wrong. Thought patterns, decision-making, and actions must all level up for true mastery in business coaching. Leadership Through Threes CEO essentials: visual scoreboard, leverage, structure. Founders' three reflection questions: What don't I see? Where are my assumptions incorrect? What do I need to learn? Leadership in practice: Ask, listen, learn. Elon Musk and First Principles Thinking Break big problems into small parts and don't fear starting at the fundamental level—applicable for coaches needing to revamp their demo, offer, or client acquisition process. Vulnerability and Authenticity in Coaching Why trying to appear perfect hurts coaching conversions and authentic rapport; admitting flaws and sharing real stories is a conversion superpower. Notable Quotes “When you succeed, you party. When you fail, you ponder. There's a lot of money in pondering.” “You want your present to be better? You need to make your future bigger.” (attributed to Dan Sullivan) “Amateurs practice until they get it right, pros practice until they can't get it wrong.” “The person that comes across as too perfect… is the person that will screw you over 10x.” “Defense wins championships. Are you and your clients playing defense as well as offense?” Actionable Takeaways Rewire for Success: When facing setbacks, actively seek out lessons, practice gratitude, and attach positive, aspirational “I am” statements to your identity. Forgive yourself often and set bigger goals to avoid playing small. Harness the Power of Three: Break down complex strategies, presentations, or learning models into three key points for maximum retention and clarity. Examples: Lead Gen, Conversion, Fulfillment; Ask, Listen, Learn; Visual Scoreboard, Leverage, Structure. Practice Humility: Focus on optionality and long-term wealth, not just flashy success; stay humble, and aim to be trainable and open to learning like an investor rather than just a producer. Demonstrate Don't Explain: Develop and perfect a dynamic demonstration of your coaching value to secure clients—don't just rely on explanations. Prioritize Defense: Regularly assess risk, improve financial “defense,” and focus as much on wealth preservation as on new client acquisition. Embrace Vulnerability: Be authentic in your story and interactions—share failures as well as successes to build deeper client rapport and trust.

This week, I'm sharing a short clip from one of my advanced programmes on something I see as hugely important:  the hidden structure behind the words people say—and how that affects the way we listen, speak, and make an impact. Every word you hear is pointing to something much deeper. And once that really lands, it opens up a whole new level of clarity and connection. And guess what? It's not just the words you hear; it's behind the words you say, too!  That's why this one's especially relevant if you're a coach, teacher, awakener—or anyone who wants to have a transformative impact through language and presence. Big love, Jamie
