Russia's Financial Desperation: Failed Bond Issues and Discounted Oil — Michael Bernstam — Bernstamdocuments Russia's systematic struggle to finance its expanding budget deficit and war costs through issuance of "Panda bonds" denominated in Chinese renminbi, efforts that have largely failed as Chinese investors regard Russian sovereign debt as excessively risky. Bernstam documents that Russia's oil revenue is severely constrained by Western sanctions enforcement, forcing Moscow to sell crude petroleum at approximately $40 per barrel compared to global market prices exceeding $60, while the European Union remains gridlocked regarding authorization to utilize frozen Russian assets for Ukrainian defense funding. 1906 NORTHSIDE PEKING

Most of us think we're struggling with follow-up because we aren't consistent enough, or the leads just aren't good enough. But in reality, the problem goes much deeper than missed calls and forgotten reminders.  The real issue is that most agents fundamentally misunderstand how long it actually takes to convert a lead, and what those follow-up conversations are supposed to feel like.  We expect one call to turn into an appointment and one appointment to turn into a deal. When that doesn't happen, we assume the lead isn't interested, or worse, that we're “bothering them.”  What makes follow-up fall apart isn't laziness, it's uncertainty. We jump off that first call, and when it's time to reconnect, we genuinely have no idea what to say next.  So we default to the fastest escape hatch: a cold text, a generic check-in, a “just touching base” message that signals the wrong thing, you're following up for yourself, not to bring value to the lead.  How do we shift our mindset around follow-up? How do we take the pressure and hesitation out of lead follow-up? In this episode, we break down the patterns behind bad follow-up, the mindset shift that makes good follow-up easy, and the small adjustments that help you stay connected to your entire pipeline.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Follow-up takes more touches than most agents assume Most clients need several conversations before anything moves forward. How do we plan for a longer decision cycle instead of expecting quick wins? Why “just checking in” messages fall flat Generic follow-up doesn't create meaningful engagement. How do we make sure our touchpoints actually reflect where the client is in their process? How to pick up the conversation where it last ended A good follow-up feels like continuity, not a reset. What becomes easier when we reconnect around the client's timeline, concerns, or next step? The role of warm and older leads in your pipeline Hot leads aren't the only ones who convert. What opportunities show up when every stage of our database has a consistent follow-up rhythm?     About Your Host   Greg Harrelson is a real estate agent, coach, trainer, and owner of Century 21 The Harrelson Group.

The 94 WIP Morning Show are continuing to discuss exactly what is wrong with the Eagles offense. There are certainly many reasons why the offense has sputtered compared to last year, including a different play caller, a frequently injured offensive line, and a Quarterback that seems hesitant to pull the trigger. Nick Sirianni is also taking a lot of heat for the concerning offensive woes.

The Christmas Tree Lot, the Steak, and Why the Hard Part Is What Makes It Worth It In this episode, Doc Danny Matta shares a story about a Christmas tree lot in Columbus, Georgia, the best steak he's ever eaten, and how hard work—and the struggle that comes with it—makes success and reward deeply meaningful. He connects that experience to clinic ownership, growth, and why building a successful cash practice is supposed to be hard. Quick Ask If this episode helps you reframe the hard parts of business, share it with another clinician who's grinding through a tough season—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare it. Episode Summary Documentation pain: The #1 complaint on satisfaction surveys is clinicians hating to write notes. Clair AI scribe: Clair has been trained specifically for PTs to write high-quality notes, like a meticulous student in the corner capturing everything. Time freedom: Using Clair allows clinicians to reclaim hours of documentation time and spend it with family, hobbies, or simply resting. Danny's background: Staff PT, active duty military PT, cash practice founder, seller, and founder of PT Biz, helping 1,000+ clinicians build cash practices. The Christmas tree lot job: As a teenager in Columbus, GA, Danny and his brother took a sketchy, hard manual-labor job at a Christmas tree lot near Fort Benning. Uncertain payoff: The owner warned them they'd only get paid if they worked hard—and not until the end of the season. Hard work in the cold: Long days hauling trees, sawing, tying them to cars, all while smelling Texas Roadhouse across the street they couldn't yet afford. Finally getting paid: On the last day, the owner pulled out a wad of cash, paid them what he owed, and even gave them a bonus for working hard. The greatest steak ever: They walked across the street to Texas Roadhouse, ordered the most expensive steak, and it remains the best steak Danny's ever had—because of what it represented. Meaning through struggle: The steak wasn't special because of the restaurant; it was special because of the work it took to earn it. Business parallel: The hard parts of clinic ownership—slow growth, cash stress, buildouts, staffing—are what make the wins meaningful. Normalizing struggle: Building a successful clinic that changes your life and your family's life should not be easy. Celebrate wins: Most entrepreneurs power past achievements without celebrating; Danny argues you need to mark the "steak moments." Reframing frustration: Instead of "Why is this so hard?" shift to "It's supposed to be hard—and that's why it will feel incredible when it works." Lessons & Takeaways Hard work makes reward meaningful: Wins feel better when they're earned through discomfort, sacrifice, and persistence. You need contrast: Without the "shitty stuff," victories don't stand out—you need struggle to appreciate success. Business is not meant to be easy: A clinic that creates time and financial freedom will demand hard things from you. Struggle is not a sign you're failing: It's a sign you're doing something significant and transformative. School and business are similar: Graduation and growth feel good precisely because the journey is challenging. Positive reinforcement matters: Celebrating wins keeps you moving through the next tough stretch. Mindset & Motivation Embrace the hard: Instead of resenting the grind, accept that it's the price of a different life. You're not broken: Being tired, stretched, and challenged doesn't mean you picked the wrong path. Remember what's at stake: A successful clinic can change your family's finances, your time, and your identity. Reframe the question: Move from "Why is this so hard?" to "Who am I becoming because I'm doing hard things?" Use the steak moment: Have a tangible reward in mind—your version of Texas Roadhouse—to look forward to after big milestones. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Automate documentation: Use Clair to remove hours of note writing and free up time for life outside the clinic. Define your "steak": Choose a specific reward (trip, dinner, purchase) you'll give yourself after a big business milestone. Track your wins: Keep a running list of milestones reached so you can look back and see your progress. Expect friction: When something feels hard, remind yourself: "This is exactly what I signed up for." Build celebration into your plan: Schedule a pause to celebrate when you hit revenue, hire, or space goals. Notable Quotes "If you don't have the shitty stuff, then it doesn't feel very good whenever you get the good stuff." "Why would something that changes your life be easy?" "Anything meaningful—like a successful clinic—should be hard." "If you can just reframe from 'Why is this hard?' to 'This is supposed to be hard,' it changes everything." "The hard part is what makes the win feel like the greatest steak you've ever had." Action Items Identify one current "hard thing" in your business and consciously reframe it as part of what makes your future success meaningful. Pick a specific reward you'll give yourself when you hit your next major milestone. Write down three big wins you've already earned and how hard you worked for them. Consider trying Clair for a 7-day free trial to reclaim documentation time. Share this story with a spouse, partner, or friend so they understand why you're pushing through the hard season.

Welcome to Get ObsessedJulie and Mika open the episode with a reflection on their shared obsession with romance, sensuality, dreaming, and the power of the written word. They introduce Pamela S. Thibodeaux, a woman whose storytelling lives at the intersection of faith, sensuality, and gritty realism. Pamela's Writing Origin StoryPamela shares how her writing journey began in her twenties, filling five-subject notebooks while raising young children. Without access to a computer or typewriter, she rented machines or borrowed them whenever she could—because the stories simply needed to come out. Discovering the Christian MarketPamela explains the early challenges of writing romance with faith elements. Traditional Christian publishers wanted extremely conservative love stories: no passionate kisses no euphemisms like “heck” or “darn” no unmarried characters alone together no dancing unless it was “square dancing”Her stories, full of sensuality, passion, complexity, and spiritual themes, didn't fit the mold. Blending Sensuality & SpiritualityPamela speaks about the moment she recommitted her life to God and asked to write fiction that glorifies Him—without sanitizing human passion. She believed (and still believes) that God created humans with desire, chemistry, and emotional depth, and that romance fiction should honor that.Her tagline—“Inspirational with an Edge”—came organically from a bookstore manager who instantly recognized her voice. The Struggle—and Freedom—of Finding the Right MarketTraditional Christian publishers found her books “too sensual.” Secular publishers found them “too much God.” Pamela had to find a lane for readers who wanted both. Small-press publishers embraced her work, and she eventually indie-published after getting her rights back. Writing Real Life: Domestic Violence, Abuse & HealingPamela opens up about her own past—being young, married to an alcoholic, surviving domestic violence, raising children, and eventually finding safety and healing.She talks about how life experiences naturally show up in her books, especially through: characters overcoming abuse emotional healing arcs the tension between vulnerability and strength the journey from fear to faith One of her most powerful books was written in four months during tax season while working full-time—something she considers a divine co-creation. Faith Without PreachingPamela emphasizes she's not writing for the already-convinced. Her books aren't sermons, and her characters aren't perfect. Instead, she writes for readers who may never go to church or pick up a Bible—but still crave meaning, hope, and spiritual truth. The Role of Passion in LoveShe speaks candidly about how emotional, spiritual, and physical intimacy are interconnected—and why she refuses to separate them in her fiction. She believes portraying passion isn't sinful; it's honest, healthy, and God-designed. Marriage, Divorce & RedemptionJulie and Pamela connect over their shared experience with divorce. Pamela shares that: her first marriage was volatile she left to protect herself and her children she later remarried and was widowed healing, forgiveness, and growth shaped her deeply These life chapters add texture to the emotional resolution in her stories and to the compassion she brings to her characters. A Multifaceted Creative LifeMika highlights Pamela's passion for family, storytelling, The Chosen series, and her love for the Texas cowboy culture. Pamela speaks about writing stories set in the Texas Hill Country and her affection for cowboy romance rooted in faith and realism.

Send us a textThe "first-year teaching blues" are real, but they don't have to be a career-ender. In this episode, Daniel explores the impact of the GREAT Grant (Georgia Residency for Educating Amazing Teachers), a program designed to turn career-changers into thriving educators through a paid residency model.We sit down with Jillian Degan, a former "problem child" student who swore she'd never teach, and Amelia Ellison, the veteran mentor who guided her. Together, they pull back the curtain on what a successful mentor-mentee relationship actually looks like—moving beyond "signing the paperwork" to building a partnership based on vulnerability, trust, and the freedom to fail.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeThe Non-Traditional Path: How both Jillian (Healthcare) and Amelia (Business) transitioned into education and how their outside perspectives shape their classrooms.The "Productive Struggle": Why Jillian had to learn to stop "hating group work" and allow her students to struggle together to find the right answers.Reverse Mentorship: How a veteran teacher learned to embrace new technology and creative "anchor charts" by watching her mentee take risks.Management vs. Relationships: Why rigid systems (like "the clipboard") often fail new teachers, and why emotional intelligence works better than calling parents every day.The "Vibe" Check: Why it is critical for a new teacher to speak up and request a different mentor if the personality fit isn't right.The Power of Constructive Feedback: How to give feedback that builds a new teacher up rather than just telling them "fix your classroom management" without explaining how.

Recapping the Dolphins victory and pointing out two very obvious things: Tua is not the same player he once was and the true face of the Dolphins is De'Von Achane.

We hit all the biggest NFL action in our Whiparound, including the Panthers upsetting the Rams, Seahawks shutting out the Vikings, Bills topping the Steelers, and Chargers edging the Raiders. With the AFC wide open and no clear frontrunner, we break down the playoff races in both conferences. Plus, a look at Tua's struggles and what they mean for Miami moving forward.

The Dolphins escape with a win, but Tua Tagovailoa struggles under center. We break down his early slip-up, the embarrassing celebration after a misread first down, and how Coach McDaniel is scheming around Tua's limitations. While Miami continues to edge past weaker opponents, the wins leave plenty of frustration for fans. We also discuss whether the rainy conditions impacted Tua's performance — but at least the Dolphins are still finding ways to win.

Ever wondered how a receding hairline could be the gateway to newfound confidence? We kick off with tales of going bald and how it doesn't spell the end of the world but rather a bold, new beginning.

The conversation then meanders into the realm of Thanksgiving, where we debate the potential impact of a $98 million windfall and explore unconventional money-making avenues like OnlyFans. With Thanksgiving on the horizon, we share personal stories about how cultural backgrounds shape our holiday meals, mixing Nigerian, Salvadorian, and Italian flavors with the traditional American feast. Our chat takes a quirky turn as we unpack the fashion paradox of quarter zips versus the notorious black Air force sneakers. We laugh about strength goals in deadlifting and dispel some myths about steroid use. An exploration of content creation follows, where we ponder the balance between day jobs and creative pursuits, and how vlogs create a unique connection with an audience. From digital IDs to AI's potential to replace realtors, we touch on the promise and peril of tech's rapid advance. Analyzing wealth and public perception of it, we take a light-hearted jab at the portrayal of real estate on reality TV and how appearances might sway success. As we round out the episode, you'll hear our thoughts on horror films from "Human Centipede" to "Bone Tomahawk," contemplating why society is so fascinated with gruesome narratives. We muse over actors like Nicolas Cage and Tyler Perry's unique filmmaking style, indulging in comedy specials that tickle our funny bones. Finally, the merits of YouTube Premium, especially for offline viewing, underscore how digital platforms continue to shape everyday conveniences. We weave personal anecdotes with global issues, creating a tapestry of humor and reflection that leaves you eager for more.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and felt stuck with your own body—in a similar way you’ve felt stuck with alcohol?That exhausting push-pull. The promises. The shame. The “why do I keep doing this?” on repeat. If that sounds familiar, this conversation is for you. For the woman who’s tried willpower, plans, promises, and prayers—yet still feels stuck in the cycle of body image battles, emotional eating, and quiet self-criticism. Friend, you are not alone. And you are not broken. Leanne joins us to share her powerful story of moving from food addiction and shame to true healing—rooted in both neuroscience and the unshakable love of God. What once felt like a personal failure of discipline became a holy revelation: real change happens when we understand our nervous system, renew our minds, and invite God into the process with us. In this episode, we talk honestly about how self-image shapes our choices, why “knowing better” isn’t the same as healing, and how faith and neuroscience beautifully work together to bring lasting freedom. Just like with alcohol, you’ll hear how the breakthrough didn’t come from trying harder—but from partnering with God differently. You’ll also hear how Leanne learned to separate who she is from what she struggled with—and how that shift opened the door to peace, empowerment, and a new identity grounded in Christ. If you’ve ever wondered why you keep doing the very thing you swore you wouldn’t—whether with food, alcohol, or anything else—this episode will remind you: you’re not failing—you’re in formation. And God isn’t standing at a distance. He’s right in the middle of your becoming.

Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this podcast episode #150 we shine a light on the real experiences of early-career medical professionals and listening to the voices of junior doctors. I'm your host, Dr. Sarah Smith, and today we're joined by Victoria Lister—researcher, workplace coach, and passionate advocate for change in healthcare. Diving into the hidden struggles junior doctors face: the culture of silence, the impact of discrimination and burnout, and the critical importance of psychological safety at work. Victoria shares her research and personal insights on why so many doctors feel unable to speak up, and what leaders and colleagues can do to create safer, more supportive environments. Whether you're a medical professional, a student, or simply interested in the future of healthcare, this conversation is packed with eye-opening stories and practical advice. Let's get started! Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: The Culture of Silence in Medicine: Junior doctors often feel unable to speak up about their working conditions due to fear of retaliation, career setbacks, and entrenched hierarchies. This silence can have serious consequences for both staff wellbeing and patient safety. Psychological Safety is Essential: Creating environments where junior doctors feel safe to voice concerns is crucial. Leadership that listens, acts, and genuinely supports staff can transform toxic workplaces into supportive, high-performing teams. Discrimination and Burnout are Widespread: Issues like bullying, harassment, and discrimination—based on gender, race, or background—are still prevalent in medical training. Addressing these challenges requires systemic change, open conversations, and collective action to ensure a healthier future for all healthcare professionals. Meet Victoria Lister: Victoria Lister is a researcher in the Business School at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia. Her PhD research investigates junior doctors' working conditions silences and how the medical profession acts as a barrier to voice. To support junior doctors, Victoria trained as a workplace coach and is currently researching and delivering a ‘coaching for communication' program for emergency medicine clinicians. She also works on other research projects in the medical context; has consulted on a healthcare workforce wellbeing initiative and a cultural change program designed to address bullying, harassment and discrimination in medicine; and has published on these themes.

Veterans and First Responders, civilian transition can be an identity crisis. Jiu Jitsu helped her find her purpose.In Episode 224 of the Transition Drill Podcast, what happens when you've already lived out your dream career but are forced to walk away from it. For many first responders and military members, transition is not a clean break, it's an identity crisis. In this episode, former San Diego Police Officer Kristi Miedecke opens up about the hardest fight she ever faced. It didn't happen in uniform, it happened at home.Kristi grew up in a law enforcement family, earned her badge with grit, and loved the job. But when she became a mother while married to another cop, the math stopped working. Two young kids, opposite shifts, no real sleep, and a quiet question started chasing her. Can you be fully present for your family and still be fully committed to the badge. Kristi made the choice to leave the department, but she didn't expect the silence that followed. No radio traffic, no partners, no roll calls, and no identity. That silence led to postpartum depression, anxiety, isolation, and the painful admission that she felt like she didn't know who she was anymore.What followed is powerful. Therapy. Grad school. Discovery of jiu jitsu as a form of grounding and healing. The creation of Gates to Healing, an equine therapy program built for first responders and military veterans fighting trauma, anxiety, and loss of identity. Kristi didn't just rebuild her life. She rebuilt her purpose.This conversation is for any firefighter, police officer, medic, veteran, or service member asking the tough questions: What if the uniform is gone. What if I don't know who I am anymore. And what does it really take to move forward. If you're in transition, or might be someday, this episode is proof that your purpose can evolve and your mission is far from over.The best podcast for military veterans, police officers, firefighters, and first responders preparing for veteran transition and life after service.
