Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Amid the resumed US-Iran fighting, US President Donald Trump is playing down the potential for escalation, reports Magid, and telling Israel not to worry. Additionally, Magid discusses the administration's attempts to pressure Iran with economic sanctions, a lengthy process that will impact pricing for Americans at the gas pump, and will also require cooperation from a range of countries with diverse interests, including the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Qatar and China. The US issued slightly stronger condemnation than usual of West Bank settler violence, denouncing criminal violence and calling for investigations, arrests and prosecutions, but didn’t specifically mention settlers, or Israel, in its statement, notes Magid. The US-backed Board of Peace called out Israel's continued strikes on Hamas targets in Gaza, Magid also reports, as the Israeli government appears to be waiting until after the October 27 elections to make any substantive policy shifts. Magid also updates us on a Palestinian banking crisis, which was averted at the eleventh hour, with Israeli banks Discount and Hapoalim agreeing to continue providing correspondent banking services until January 1. Meanwhile, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah party is attempting to reconcile internal feuds ahead of planned Palestinian legislative elections at the end of November. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

After more than 35 years in emergency medicine, Dr. Ken Ro began asking a different question: What could have happened years earlier to prevent the crisis happening in the ER today? In this episode, Dr. Ro joins Bethany to explore why high-performing leaders—especially in midlife—can slowly normalize exhaustion, brain fog, poor sleep, stress, and declining energy while continuing to perform. They discuss: Why leaders may not be overstressed, but under-recovered How physical health directly impacts leadership capacity and decision-making Why work gets our best energy while home often gets what's left Protecting the first and last hour of your day The danger of 24/7 accessibility and “micromanagement technology” Dr. Ro's RECLAIM Method for addressing root causes instead of symptoms Why midlife shouldn't automatically mean accepting a lower “new normal” The powerful question to ask your doctor: “If I stay on this trajectory, what will I look like in five years?” Why you cannot lead effectively with an empty tank

Women have been told for years that they need to negotiate more—but what if that isn't the real problem? In this episode, Nicole welcomes negotiation consultant, Harvard research fellow, and founder of Moon Negotiation, Joan Moon, to unpack what the research actually says about women and negotiation. Together, they challenge outdated myths, explore the impact of gender bias at the bargaining table, and share practical strategies that help women advocate for themselves without abandoning who they are. From salary conversations to flexible work arrangements and everyday communication, this conversation reveals that negotiation isn't about becoming more aggressive—it's about becoming more strategic. In This Episode Nicole and Joan Discuss: Why the idea that women are "bad negotiators" is a myth unsupported by research. How gender bias—not lack of skill—often influences negotiation outcomes. Why women excel when negotiating for others but face different expectations when advocating for themselves. The power of the win-win approach and how to frame requests around shared success. How asking better questions leads to stronger negotiation outcomes, and why listening is often a negotiator's greatest advantage. The importance of uncovering the other person's underlying interests instead of making assumptions. How to negotiate non-salary benefits like flexibility, time, and professional support. Practical strategies for performance reviews, raises, and promotion conversations. Common negotiation mistakes women make—and how to avoid them. Together, these insights offer a practical roadmap for approaching negotiation with confidence, clarity, and a win-win mindset. Thank you to our sponsors!

In this episode, Michael Levitz, Founder of The Levitz Agency, draws on 47 years in home furnishings retail—including Ashley HomeStore, The RoomStore, and M.D. Pruitt's—to reveal the one advantage big-box retailers can't buy: the customer relationship. After building and selling a home furnishings company for eight figures, Michael now helps independent retailers compete by using AI to create the kind of customer memory once reserved for companies with massive budgets and sophisticated systems. He explains how independents can automate after-sale busywork, stay connected with customers, and get back to doing what machines can't—building real relationships on the sales floor.
#1057 What if the only thing standing between you and your next level of success isn't strategy — but the way your mind handles pressure, uncertainty, and fear? In this episode, host Kirsten Tyrrel sits down with Itamar Marani — former Israeli special operations and undercover agent turned elite performance coach — to unpack how high achievers unlock their next level when pressure is high and clarity is low. Itamar shares his surprising path from special ops to running a marketing agency, to being urged by successful founders to “ditch the agency and coach,” ultimately leading to his coaching-and-consulting business. He breaks down the three “success killers” that quietly cap an entrepreneur's growth and how to shift from emotion-driven decisions to strategy-driven action so you can stop procrastinating, stop playing small, and start performing like the version of you who already has the results! (Original Air Date - 12/29/25) What we discuss with Itamar: + Special ops to entrepreneurship + Mindset under pressure + From agency to coaching + Elite performance principles + Imposter syndrome & discomfort + Three “success killers” + Playing not to lose + Emotion vs strategy + Permission to take action Thank you, Itamar!

Can Ancient Philosophy Teach Us How to Succeed? | Tom Morris on Aristotle, Stoicism & Living WellWhat does it actually mean to succeed in life? And could Aristotle, the Stoics and other ancient thinkers have better answers than our modern obsession with money, status and achievement?In this episode, Anya Leonard speaks with Tom Morris, public philosopher, former Notre Dame professor and bestselling author of If Aristotle Ran General Motors. Together they explore what happens when ancient philosophy leaves the classroom and enters everyday life: from business and leadership to personal success, politics and the search for meaning.Drawing on Aristotle, Seneca, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius and others, Tom challenges conventional ideas of success and offers a deeper vision rooted in developing our talents, helping others and pursuing genuine human flourishing.The conversation also explores the extraordinary modern revival of Stoicism, whether we can separate great ideas from the flaws of the people who held them, and how ancient concepts of virtue, community and responsibility might help us navigate the divisions of modern society.Key Topics:Why ancient philosophy still speaks to modern problemsWhat happened when Tom brought Aristotle into corporate AmericaWhy success isn't simply about money, power or statusAristotle, eudaimonia and the meaning of human flourishingHow to find the useful “gold nuggets” in ancient philosophyShould we reject thinkers whose values don't match our own?Philosophy, patriotism and the search for shared valuesCan ancient wisdom help us move beyond political extremes?Why Stoicism has become a worldwide phenomenonThe forgotten philosophical traditions we should rediscoverTimestamps:00:00 – Introduction01:00 – From philosopher to corporate America05:03 – Why ancient wisdom connects with people10:53 – Our hunger for meaningful ideas14:08 – What is true success?16:13 – The Seven C's of Success17:52 – Eudaimonia & human flourishing18:46 – If Aristotle Ran General Motors20:13 – “Cherry-picking” ancient wisdom24:04 – Can we learn from flawed thinkers?28:07 – Philosophy, patriotism & shared values32:17 – Can philosophy overcome division?42:11 – Why Stoicism is booming46:38 – Stoicism & political division49:25 – Can individuals change society?53:29 – Finding the middle ground58:54 – What lies beyond Stoicism?1:00:30 – Final thoughtsWhat does success mean to you?

According to Mary and Andrew, recent moves by President Trump's administration have been following a pattern: “If at first you don't succeed, try try again.” The co-hosts begin by breaking down the flurry of news surrounding mail voting, starting with Monday afternoon's decision by the Supreme Court to allow President Trump's executive order curtailing mail voting to proceed, though not issuing a decision on the merits of the order. They discuss that decision in conjunction with the Postal Service's announcement on Friday for a final rule that would comply with the executive order, a move that Andrew calls a proxy for the government to “have the Postal Service act in a way that has a clearly disproportionate impact on certain voters.” Then, a conversation about birthright citizenship after a motion was filed yesterday rejecting Trump's executive orders that attempt to limit the legal principle. Plus, an analysis of the Second and Ninth Circuit Court's rulings disqualifying U.S. Attorneys that were improperly appointed by Trump and a quick nod to Minnesota suing the governor of Texas for not extraditing an ICE agent accused of shooting a man in Minneapolis.

Scaling isn't a lesser version of CrossFit—it's one of the reasons CrossFit works.In this episode of The Mojo Method Podcast, we break down the importance of scaling and why choosing the right weight, movement, reps, or difficulty can actually help you make more progress, not less.We talk about the RX trap, why intensity is relative, and how chasing the prescribed version of a workout can sometimes cause you to completely miss the intended stimulus. We also explain why scaling isn't just for beginners—even experienced athletes need to adjust their training based on their goals, recovery, injuries, and where they are that day.Most importantly, we discuss the role of your coach in helping you find the version of the workout that challenges you appropriately while continuing to move you forward.The goal isn't to do the workout as written. The goal is to get what the workout was designed to give you.Scale appropriately. Move well. Work hard. Keep progressing.Hard Work. High Fives. Good Vibes.

Melissa Wilkinson, founder of Anchored With Purpose, joins Bethany to explore what it looks like to lead with faith, purpose, and intention—even when life feels chaotic or the path ahead isn't clear.

"However much discomfort you can tolerate is going to equal how much success you achieve, and there's not really any way around that." — Keyvan Billou Nicky Billou sits down with his son Keyvan for one of the most honest conversations on this show about what it takes to succeed as a young man right now — not theory, not motivation, but the actual habits, decisions, and mentality that produce real results at 20 years old. Keyvan graduated with an A average from St. Michael's College School, one of Toronto's most respected private schools, and had a university spot lined up. He walked away from it. His reasoning is worth hearing: if you want results above the majority, you cannot follow the same path as the majority. He went to work at Hammer Fitness, built a client base from scratch, and now coaches people both in person and online — available to clients nearly any hour of the day because the work doesn't feel like work. The conversation goes deep on what actually produces that kind of drive in a young man. Keyvan talks about discomfort tolerance as a trainable skill, not a fixed trait — how going from struggling through 8-hour shifts to running 14-hour days was the result of deliberate, incremental exposure to more. They also get honest about the role of parents, the cost of never hearing no, and the four qualities — decisiveness, process-commitment, coachability, and resourcefulness — that determine whether anyone succeeds at anything. If you have a young man in your life who is drifting, or if you are a young man trying to figure out what kind of man you want to become, this episode has something direct and useful to say.

The Book of Numbers follows the Israelites on their journey from Egyptian captivity toward Canaan, the land God had promised them. They knew where they started and where they were headed, but everything in between was uncertain. That tension is deeply familiar. God rarely hands us a detailed roadmap. Instead, He gives us Himself and asks us to trust Him through the middle. The central lesson from the opening chapters of Numbers is this: you do not need to know the whole plan when you know the One who made it. Before Israel moved a single step, God spoke to Moses inside the Tent of Meeting. That detail matters. Moses had moved closer to God, and proximity shapes how clearly we hear Him. The pattern is consistent throughout Scripture: listen first, then act.God always has a plan, and it stretches all the way back to Genesis 12, where He called Abram with four defining elements: a chosen people, a chosen place, a clear promise, and a clear purpose. Being blessed was never just about receiving. It was always about becoming a blessing to others. That purpose has not changed. We are still invited into the same rescue mission that runs from Genesis to Revelation. Practically, this means taking honest inventory of who is in our lives, arranging our priorities with God genuinely at the center, and choosing trust over complaint when life does not go as expected. The first generation of Israelites forfeited the promised land through grumbling and unbelief. Numbers was written to their children as a reminder that God remains faithful even when His people are not. He will do the same for us.Moving with God does not require a dramatic calling or a perfectly clear vision. It looks like ordinary people doing the next right thing in faith, even when it seems unusual to everyone watching. The invitation this week is simple but challenging: find your Tent of Meeting, show up there consistently, and let God speak before you move. Bring your plans before Him honestly and ask Him to redirect anything that is not from Him. Where do you see God already working around you, and are you willing to join Him there?
The Operational Blueprint for High-Yield Community Fitness: Efficient Systems, High-Touch Coaching, and Authentic Brand Growth with Dan KachtikIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Dan Kachtik, Owner, Programmer, and Coach/Trainer at King William District CrossFit, to examine how local service businesses and fitness operators can build resilient, high-retention communities without sacrificing operational efficiency. Dan, a veteran fitness programmer and gym owner based in San Antonio, Texas, details how busy professionals and entrepreneurs can achieve peak physical condition with concise, highly structured training protocols. This conversation delivers an intentional blueprint for gym owners, fitness enthusiasts, and business leaders who want to leverage personalized coaching, implement high-touch nutrition systems, foster genuine community accountability, and utilize authentic media strategies to scale local brand authority.The Functional Fitness Engine: Streamlining Time-Efficient Workouts, High-Touch Nutrition, and Local Brand MarketingThe primary operational constraint preventing busy executives and founders from maintaining long-term physical health is a lack of time-efficient, structured workout systems that fit seamlessly into demanding professional schedules. Dan Kachtik explains that high-volume, multi-hour gym routines are inherently unsustainable for time-poor professionals, whereas constantly varied functional training delivers maximum physiological results in just three to four hours per week. By combining strength, gymnastics, and cardiovascular conditioning into concise, one-hour coached sessions, members achieve comprehensive physical fitness while mitigating burnout. Partnering this physical training with hands-on, expert coaching ensures that movements are modified safely for individual needs and past injuries, protecting long-term physical health and driving consistent member retention.Extending member results beyond physical gym walls requires an intentional shift toward high-touch digital nutrition support and flexible remote programming. Traditional, static meal plans routinely fail because they lack real-time accountability and fail to adapt to changing executive lifestyles or biological aging. By utilizing modern messaging channels to provide daily, real-time nutrition check-ins and developing custom remote programming tailored to available travel equipment, fitness operators can deliver personalized value anywhere in the world. This hybrid service model expands the business's market reach, ensuring clients maintain dietary discipline and training momentum even when traveling for high-stakes business operations.Furthermore, building long-term local market dominance demands that business owners replace expensive, impersonal digital advertising campaigns with authentic, story-driven media guesting. Appearing as a guest on local and niche podcasts allows gym owners and service providers to share real-world expertise, build immediate trust, and connect directly with high-value target audiences. While artificial intelligence and automated software can streamline administrative scheduling and backend communications, human accountability remains the non-negotiable core of client success and community building. When personalized coaching, daily high-touch nutrition support, inclusive community culture, and authentic podcast media strategies are synthesized into a single operational framework, business leaders eliminate customer acquisition friction, elevate member lifetime value, and predictably expand enterprise valuation.About Dan KachtikDan Kachtik is the Owner, Programmer, and Coach/Trainer at King William District CrossFit, a prominent fitness programmer, and an expert in functional strength and conditioning. Drawing from years of hands-on experience coaching busy professionals, business owners, and athletes in San Antonio, Texas, Dan specializes in building inclusive, high-retention fitness communities. He is a recognized health and business strategist focused on helping individuals optimize physical performance through efficient training, high-touch nutrition coaching, and authentic brand storytelling.About King William District CrossFitKing William District CrossFit is an elite functional fitness gym and health coaching facility engineered to deliver efficient, safe, and community-driven physical conditioning.

Welcome to episode #1049 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). Farid Mheir has spent four decades at the intersection of engineering, business strategy, and digital transformation. Trained as a microelectronics engineer, he helped pioneer online grocery commerce with IGA in the mid-1990s before building e-commerce platforms for major retailers across North America and Europe. Today, through his advisory firm, and as a faculty member at the McGill Executive Institute, Farid advises executives on AI strategy and organizational transformation. His new book, AI Mindsets - A Guide to Succeed in an AI-Driven World, distills decades of experience into thirty-one practical mindsets designed to help leaders move beyond AI hype and build organizations prepared for an era of intelligence abundance. In this episode, Farid explains why AI represents a shift as significant as the arrival of the internet, arguing that while the web democratized access to information, AI is making intelligence itself widely accessible. We explore what remains uniquely human in a world of increasingly capable machines, why wisdom, judgment, and experience become more valuable as intelligence becomes abundant, and how organizations must undergo a cultural, not just technological, transformation to realize AI's potential. Farid also discusses prompt engineering, answer engineering, AI agents, software development, and why the greatest opportunity lies not in replacing people but in moving them upstream toward more creative and strategic work. Throughout the conversation, he makes the case that success in the AI era will depend less on mastering new tools than on adopting new ways of thinking about work, leadership, and the future itself.

Ken opens the phone lines to find out if fans actually want Deshaun Watson to play well tomorrow or just say they do out of obligation, with Anthony noting he can't let years of frustration override wanting the organization to succeed. Callers largely agree they want the offense to look competent without necessarily wanting Watson himself to shine, with Gary arguing a good performance would prove Kevin Stefanski was the real problem all along, and Patrick and Slater both saying they're more interested in the Browns winning than in vindicating Watson specifically.
