    Most people find the Old Testament confusing, dusty, or even intimidating. But what if it's actually the essential foundation for everything you believe about Jesus Christ? Today, we unlock the "Library of Books" that makes up the first half of our scripture and discover why it is the indispensable foundation of the covenant. Summary: In this introductory lesson, we lay the groundwork for a year-long journey through the Old Testament. We move beyond seeing it as a singular book and begin to view it as a diverse library of 39 books. Key themes include: The Foundation of the Covenant: Understanding why the Old Testament is the root from which the New Testament, Book of Mormon, and Doctrine and Covenants grow. Structure and Organization: A breakdown of the Hebrew Bible (the Tanakh) and its three parts: the Torah (Law), Nevi'im (Prophets), and Ketuvim (Writings). The Power of Translation: Exploring how the Bible moved from Hebrew to Greek to English, and why the Joseph Smith Translation is vital for our study. Finding Christ in the Old Testament: Moving past the "dead letter" to see the "living spirit" of the Messiah on every page. Call-to-Action: Which book of the Old Testament has always felt the most "sealed" to you? Let us know in the comments, and let's commit to opening it together this year!

    Twelve years ago, the Hammersmith Chess Club in London was down to fewer than 20 members and facing an uncertain future. Today, thanks to committed volunteers, a welcoming culture, and the broader boom in chess, it's the largest chess club in London, and was recently named ECF Chess Club of the Year. I'm joined by Hammersmith Club Captain Gaston Franco to discuss the club's remarkable turnaround and what other communities can learn from it. We cover topics like financial sustainability, league play, and gender dynamics, as well as the importance of creating an inclusive, welcoming environment. We also explore Gaston's own chess journey, which highlights one of the game's great strengths: its ability to provide instant community, especially when moving alone to a new country.

    This episode is a raw, reflective breakdown of the 10 most important leadership and business lessons learned over the past year, surfaced through intentional self-reflection and unexpected insights from AI tools like ChatGPT. Rather than chasing more activity, this episode explores what actually moves the needle: clarity, alignment, structure, emotional intelligence, boundaries, and long-term thinking. If you're a leader, entrepreneur, or executive who feels stretched thin, emotionally drained, or stuck between growth and burnout, this episode will hit home.   Podcast Show Notes – Episode 263 | 01.06.2025 Episode Title: 2025 Year End Review   Key Moments 00:00 – Reflecting on what worked and what didn't 00:41 – Using AI to surface leadership lessons 01:45 – Lesson 1: Clarity beats activity 04:04 – Lesson 2: Premium positioning requires discipline 06:22 – Lesson 3: Not every paying client is a good client 08:57 – Lesson 4: Leadership work is emotional work 10:49 – Lesson 5: Structure creates freedom 13:01 – Lesson 6: Personal brand is a long game 17:05 – Lesson 7: You can't save everyone 19:24 – Lesson 8: Your voice matters more than perfect delivery 21:57 – Lesson 9: Growth often feels lonely before it's rewarding 24:57 – Lesson 10: You're building something bigger than you intended 28:29 – Final reflection on becoming your best self   Key Takeaways Doing more isn't the answer, doing what matters is. Clarity and focus create momentum, not constant motion. Alignment matters more than revenue. Misaligned clients, relationships, and commitments cost more than they pay. Leadership growth is emotional, lonely, and worth it. The hardest seasons are often forging the strongest leaders.   Host: Sean Barnes Website: https://www.wolfexecutives.com   https://www.seanbarnes.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/seanbarnes/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/wolfexecutives https://www.linkedin.com/company/thewayofthewolf/ LinkedIn Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7284600567593684993/ The Wolf Leadership Series: https://wolfexecutives.com/wolf-leadership-series/ YouTube: youtube.thewayofthewolf.com Twitter: https://x.com/the_seanbarnes https://x.com/wolfexecutives Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_seanbarnes https://www.instagram.com/wolfexecutives https://www.instagram.com/the_wayofthewolf TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the_seanbarnes Email: Sean@thewayofthewolf.com Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Way-of-the-Wolf-Podcast/B08JJNXJ6C Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2BTGdO25Vop3GTpGCY8Y8E?si=ea91c1ef6dd14f15

    Most business owners don't need more motivation—they need better structure. In this episode, we talk about how to start the year on the right foot by fixing the fundamentals that actually create freedom. We break down why every position in your company needs a clearly defined SOP, how systems protect your business from turnover, and why relying on people instead of processes keeps you stuck in the weeds. Then we shift to growth—specifically why chasing every customer is a losing strategy. You'll hear why choosing a niche allows you to market with precision, spend less on advertising, raise quality income, and become the obvious choice in your market. If you want a business that runs without constant involvement, attracts better customers, and scales cleanly, this episode lays out the blueprint. Structure first. Focus second.

The Academy aims to translate McKinsey's internal training into offerings for clients, focusing on skill building, mindset shifts, and behavior change. Stacey explains that the Academy initially digitized content to scale impact and created learning journeys for clients. Stacey stresses the importance of grounding learning in business needs and connecting it to the flow of work.

Academy Costs and the Competitive Edge When asked about client reception to McKinsey's learning programs and the competitive landscape, Stacey explains the need to demonstrate McKinsey's content and add distinctive features like teaching assistants to justify the higher cost. The Academy aims to build once and use many times to keep costs down and stay competitive. Stacey highlights the importance of learning built with the client for their specific transformation needs.

She also talks about the relevance of modern talent development, and she explains the concept of skills-based talent strategy and the importance of knowing the workflow and tasks required for roles.

OG breaks down a side of Miami history almost never discussed: the Black and Islander underworld that operated alongside — and often beneath — the Cocaine Cowboys era. From Liberty City and Brownsville to federal penitentiaries and near-death prison riots, this is a raw, unfiltered account of survival, crime, and eventual transformation OG came up during the wild 80s and 90s, where robbery was second nature, violence was currency, and the streets raised kids faster than families ever could. He details: -Seeing dead bodies as a child in Miami -Carjackings and robberies in broad daylight -The structure of Miami's Black drug economy before it was ever “professionalized” elsewhere -Stabbings, race wars, and near-fatal ambushes inside state and federal prison -How Islam and time forced him to confront who he had become This isn't glorification — it's documentation.

Jess reflects on the Widow's Oil from the Book of Kings, the alchemical stages of nigredo, albedo, and rubedo, heightened intuition, mirror dynamics, compassion, and what it means to start from the pinnacle rather than the bottom.A transmission for those walking the deeper layers of consciousness — especially those carrying large visions that must be protected, not explained.Feminine consciousness and non-linear storytellingThe Widow's Oil: abundance, vessels, and structureWhy miracles happen in silenceClosing the door to protect faith, vision, and momentumIndividuation as an archetypal journeyThe alchemical stages:Nigredo – the dark night of the soulAlbedo – the return to light and orientationRubedo – integration and embodimentHeightened intuition and seeing what others cannot seeBecoming a mirror — and why others may reactDream symbolism as spiritual signpostingCompassion, forgiveness, and broken-heartednessEmpathy vs. empath identityWorking privately on a sacred visionDopamine, fantasy, and premature disclosureStarting from the pinnacle rather than the bottomWhy manifesting at the highest level can feel easierEnthusiasm as a frequency that attracts resources, people, and wealth(0:02) Welcome to the Spiritualised Podcast(0:08) Sharing a personal spiritual update(0:32) A feminine, non-linear journey through consciousness(1:05) The story of the Widow's Oil(2:47) Abundance requires vessels and structure(3:22) “Shut the door” — privacy, silence, and miracles(4:30) Leadership, action, and the absence of hesitation(5:58) Individuation and the alchemical journey(6:05) Nigredo: the dark night of the soul(7:27) Albedo: returning to the light(8:05) Moving through deeper layers of darkness and light(9:06) Heightened intuition and deep perception(11:12) Seeing soul contracts and unconscious agreements(11:46) Becoming a mirror for others(13:12) Symbolism, dreams, and orientation(13:54) A dream of ascent, thresholds, and initiation(17:11) Signs of entering the albedo phase(19:25) Compassion, forgiveness, and broken-heartedness(21:25) Compassion through the Gene Keys lens(22:29) Protecting a sacred creation in silence(23:53) Dopamine, fantasy, and premature sharing(25:12) Starting from the pinnacle(26:36) Why high-level creation feels easier(28:49) Enthusiasm, community, and prosperityWhere in your life are you being asked to shut the door — not out of fear, but out of devotion to your vision?What vessels are you being called to create so abundance has somewhere to flow?www.goinward.co.ukwww.instagram.com/goinward

    SEO Secrets for 2026: A Deep Dive into Schema Markup, Structure, and Indexing with Favour Obasi-ike with Favour Obasi-Ike | Sign up for exclusive SEO insights.Happy New Year! This episode provides a focused, actionable roadmap for business and website owners aiming to dominate search rankings in 2026. It moves beyond basic SEO to reveal three foundational, yet often overlooked, strategies: two internal and one external.Favour synthesizes the strategy into a winning formula: Schema + Structure + Speed. A website that excels in these three areas becomes a "triple threat"—it's understood by algorithms, technically sound, and delivers a superior user experience, making it the preferred result in search.Call to Action: For professional SEO help, you can book a call at playinc.online, listen to the podcast at wedontplaypodcast.com, or contact the me via email (info@playinc.online). More resource links available below.Core Framework for 2026 SEO Success:Internal Secret #1: Master Schema MarkupWhat it is: Explicit code (microdata) that tells search engines and AI exactly what your content means (e.g., Article, FAQ, Product).Why it matters: It "future-proofs" your content by turning pages into structured assets that AI-driven search tools can understand and feature correctly. It's the essential language for communicating with modern algorithms.Internal Secret #2: Prioritize Logical Site StructureWhat it is: A clear, hierarchical blueprint for your website using heading tags (H1, H2, H3, etc.) in the correct, sequential order.Why it matters: It serves both crawlers and users. It guides algorithms through your content while creating an intuitive, trustworthy experience for visitors. A confused structure repels both.External Secret: Leverage Automatic IndexingWhat it is: A technical method using an API to submit thousands of pages per day to Google, bypassing the strict 10-URL daily limit of manual submission in Search Console.Why it matters: For content-rich sites, it ensures your work is efficiently seen and indexed by Google, preventing valuable content from being overlooked.Episode Timestamps[03:30] Internal Secret #1: Master Schema MarkupWhat it is: Explicit code that tells search engines and AI what your content means.Why it matters: It future-proofs content, turning pages into structured assets that modern algorithms and AI search tools can correctly understand and feature.[13:00] Internal Secret #2: Prioritize Logical Site StructureWhat it is: A clear hierarchy using heading tags (H1, H2, H3) in correct order.Why it matters: It guides search engine crawlers and creates an intuitive, trustworthy experience for human users.

    If you've ever felt your heart race over a three-footer or a make-or-break sales call, imagine doing that with a camera pointed at your face and thousands of people listening… That's the world broadcaster and national champion golfer Emilia Doran lives in every week. In this episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, Emilia pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to stay composed on live TV, how she manages nerves under pressure, and why the same routines, reps, and reflections that make her great on-air are the same ingredients you need to perform on the golf course and in business. She shares how she redefined success after stepping away from professional golf, the emotional cost of perfectionism, and what it's like to build a powerful personal brand as a woman in a male-dominated sport—all while keeping joy, gratitude, and perspective at the center. In this episode, you'll learn: How Emilia handles nerves and stays authentic during live broadcasts The mindset shift that helped her stop chasing perfection and start playing freer Practical ways to simulate "18th-hole pressure" in your practice and prep How routines, reps, and reflection translate from broadcasting to better golf What Emilia's identity shift from pro-track golfer to broadcaster taught her about fulfillment How she defines a "successful" broadcast (and why saying less is often more) What it really takes to stand out as a woman in golf and claim your space with confidence Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.P.S. Curious to learn more about the results my clients are experiencing and what they say about working with me? Read more here. More About Emilia Emilia Doran is a former high-level competitive golfer turned rising star in golf media. After a decorated junior and amateur playing career—including national-level events and standout performances in women's amateur golf—Emilia transitioned into broadcasting, where she has quickly become one of the most recognizable young voices in the sport.  She covers professional golf, collegiate golf, and elite amateur events, combining storytelling, high-performance insights, and on-course experience to bring a fresh, relatable perspective to viewers. Her unique blend of competitive playing background, media experience, personal brand building, and deep understanding of the modern golf audience has positioned her as one of the game's most influential emerging personalities.  Connect with Emilia on Instagram.

Nerves don't disappear; they become more manageable when you simplify the goal—like aiming to say just one truly insightful thing each broadcast. Preparation is routine, reps, and rehearsal: organize your info, rehearse key lines, and build a repeatable process you can trust when the heat turns up. Reflection isn't just about what went wrong—intentionally review what you did well so you don't let one flub define the entire performance. Perfectionism feels like a superpower early on, but if you don't manage your expectations, it becomes emotional kryptonite that drains joy and confidence. Watching the best players closely teaches that even world-class golfers hit plenty of mediocre shots—and handle them with neutrality and grace. In both golf and broadcasting, success is often saying less with more impact and knowing when silence, presence, and emotion are more powerful than words. Key Quotes: "If I can just say one insightful thing to the audience, that's a win." "You might spend five hours on notes and only use ten percent of them—and that's okay." "Broadcasting is a job of imperfection; it's how you handle yourself when things go slightly awry that matters." "I had to accept that golf isn't my number one priority anymore—and still let that be okay." "The more I worked in golf, the more I realized I didn't want to feel emotionally exhausted all the time." "Watch a full round of one player and you'll see how many imperfect shots even the best in the world hit." "You might get an opportunity because of a box someone wants to check, but you stay because you do great work."

    *Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. Summary This episode explores the essential process of spiritual growth for new believers and the importance of being integrated into a living, functioning Body of Christ. The speakers emphasize that Christianity is not an individual journey but a shared walk where believers are brought into oneness, trained to wait on the Lord, and taught by impartation—not just teaching. Small groups, relationships, and spiritual family dynamics are highlighted as the key environment where believers mature, learn to hear God, and develop genuine oneness in the Spirit. The episode stresses the supernatural nature of the Body of Christ and the deep need for relationship, impartation, and the leading of the Holy Spirit. Show Notes The problem of placing new believers into immediate church work.Many believers begin doing tasks before learning to walk with the Lord or being led by the Spirit.Learning to wait on the Lord.New believers must be trained in waiting on God, His Word, and His Spirit.The shift from individuality to oneness.God is moving His people from isolated spiritual lives into a connected Body where every joint supplies.Why small groups matter.Smaller gatherings foster relationship, impartation, safety, trust, and real spiritual growth.Impartation versus teaching.Growth happens through spiritual impartation, not just instruction.The supernatural nature of the Body.Structure alone won't work—only the Holy Spirit brings unity and transformation.Being set into the Body by God.Believers are placed into spiritual family "as it pleases Him," not through personal choice or human organization.Challenges of...

Alex is an associate professor of psychology at Vanderbilt University where he heads the Maier Lab. His work in neuroscience spans vision, visual perception, and cognition, studying the neurophysiology of cortical columns, and other related topics. Today, he is here to discuss where his focus has shifted over the past few years, the neuroscience of consciousness. I should say shifted back, since that was his original love, which you'll hear about. I've known Alex since my own time at Vanderbilt, where I was a postdoc and he was a new faculty member, and I remember being impressed with him then. I was at a talk he gave - job talk or early talk - where it was immediately obvious how passionate and articulate he is about what he does, and I remember he even showed off some of his telescope photography - good pictures of the moon, I remember. Anyway, we always had fun interactions, even if sometimes it was a quick hello as he ran up stairs and down hallways to get wherever he was going, always in a hurry. Today we discuss why Alex sees integration information theory as the most viable current prospect for explaining consciousness. That is mainly because IIT has developed a formalized mathematical account that hopes to do for consciousness what other math has done for physics, that is, give us what we know as laws of nature. So basically our discussion revolves around everything related to that, like philosophy of science, distinguishing mathematics from "the mathematical", some of the tools he is finding valuable, like category theory, and some of his work measuring the level of consciousness IIT says a whole soccer team has, not just the individuals that comprise the team.

These questions expose the real reasons behind porn addiction, reveal how identity and emotional avoidance fuel relapse, and clarify the path toward lasting freedom.   Frank also introduces the Reboot Your Life system, a proven identity-based transformation framework that goes beyond sobriety to help men rebuild their structure, discipline, brotherhood, and purpose.   This episode is a must-listen for any man who's tired of starting over and ready to make a real decision heading into the new year.     Key Takeaways Most men stay stuck because they ask the wrong questions   Porn is a symptom, not the root problem   Addiction often serves a hidden emotional or psychological purpose Identity is revealed through private patterns, not public intentions   Relapse is usually driven by emotional avoidance, not desire   Beliefs always come before behavior—lies fuel the cycle   Isolation strengthens addiction; brotherhood breaks it   Structure protects against relapse and chaos feeds compulsion   Looking honestly at the future creates urgency for change   Questions create clarity, but action creates freedom       Ready to Stop Fighting and Start Becoming Free?

Sean argues that relying solely on historical filing is a costly error, sharing how reactive financial structuring can waste tens of thousands in unnecessary taxes. Sean breaks down the math of entity selection, identifying the $50,000 net income threshold where switching to an S-Corp becomes viable. He highlights the hidden benefits of this structure, including ultra-low audit risk, and details a reasonable compensation methodology that satisfies the IRS without overpaying payroll taxes. Finally, Sean shares his "Big Three A's" framework for year-end reductions: Accelerate expenses, acquire Assets, and leverage Altruism. He warns against panic-buying unnecessary vehicles and urges owners to treat their CPA as a strategic partner, conducting mid-year reviews to actively architect wealth.

    What happens after the deal closes is the question too few founders ask. In this conversation on Your N.E.X.T., Jerome Myers sits down again with Dr. Michelle Fritsch to explore why even highly successful founders feel lost, disconnected, or unprepared after exiting their businesses. Together, they unpack the often-ignored realities of post-exit life—identity loss, health decline, strained relationships, and the myth that money alone creates fulfillment. The conversation also introduces the thinking behind the Exit Ready Summit, a boardroom-style experience designed to help founders prepare not just financially, but personally, relationally, and purposefully for life beyond the business.

    PROGRESSIVE ELITES AND CONSTITUTIONAL SUBVERSION Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Hansoncharacterizes progressive elites as "evolutionaries" who seek to bypass Constitutional checks like the Electoral Collegeand the Senate's structure because these systems no longer favor their political dominance. He warns that threats to "pack the Supreme Court" and the practice of ignoring treaty ratification processes are destroying the Founders' design, which was intended to slow down radical change. These efforts aim to replace the deliberative republican model with one that allows for rapid, majoritarian rule by coastal elites. NUMBER 5
