Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performers often fear that if they stop performing, they'll lose success. In this episode, learn why that fear exists and how to shift into a way of succeeding that doesn't cost your peace, your presence, or yourself.Many high-capacity humans hold a quiet fear:If I stop performing, I'll lose everything I've built.Because for so long, success has been defined as up and to the right — more impact, more producing, more proving. When your spirit begins craving stillness, spaciousness, or a different way of being, it often feels like failure.This episode reframes that fear.You do not need to abandon your excellence to step out of performance.The shift is not to do less — the shift is to do what you do from who you truly are.We explore how identity memory shapes the nervous system and how performance patterns are not signs of weakness, but signs of loyalty to the identity that once kept you safe. When your system receives evidence that it is safe to be your truer self, success becomes something deeper, more grounded, and more aligned.We look to Vera Wang, who did not reinvent herself — she returned to herself. Her path reminds us that growth doesn't always look linear. Success doesn't always look like acceleration. True expansion begins when you stop leaving yourself behind.This is where Identity-Level Recalibration comes in — not as a mindset tactic or behavior hack, but as the root-level shift that allows you to succeed without abandoning your spirit.Micro Recalibration (Today)When you feel the pull to perform or prove, pause.Place your hand low on your abdomen and say:“I can remain powerful and let my spirit breathe.”Not a correction. A permission.Team / Leadership ExtensionAsk in your next planning or check-in conversation:“Are we choosing this because it looks like progress — or because it feels like alignment?”This restores clarity, presence, and integrity.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

On this episode of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast, Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock, and Dan Labbe get into the topic of the week: Shedeur Sanders has been named the starting quarterback for the Browns' game against the Las Vegas Raiders. They discuss Sanders' supreme confidence heading into his first NFL start, how the coaching staff can balance his big-play style with smart game management and the challenge of facing the Raiders on the road. Then, Mary Kay sits down with a very special guest: former Browns quarterback and Cleveland native, Brian Hoyer. Brian provides a unique quarterback's perspective on Sanders' potential and what he needs to improve on. He draws compelling parallels between the current quarterback situation with Dillon Gabriel and his own experience playing alongside Johnny Manziel. Hoyer also weighs in on Manziel's recent comments about the organization and shares his heartfelt well wishes for Browns legend Bernie Kosar.

What began as an idea between two former Marines has become a global brand built on authenticity, resilience, and relentless standards.In this bite-sized episode, Staz shares how he applied the lessons from combat to business — how to stay disciplined when motivation fades, why routine beats inspiration, and what it really means to take a leap of faith.If you've ever found yourself stuck, overthinking, or struggling to start, this is the 10-minute reset you need.Key Takeaways:Discipline Builds Momentum: Success rarely comes from motivation. It comes from showing up every day and sticking to the plan.Break Challenges into Small Wins: Whether in the military or in business, progress comes from breaking goals down into manageable steps.Plan, Prepare, Execute: Treat your business like a mission. Preparation and structure give you clarity when things get tough.Accountability Over Excuses: Structure your day with intention. The smallest habits compound into lasting results.

Are your ground marketing events driving real results or just foot traffic with no follow-through?Let's learn the secret to transforming your dental practice's ground marketing efforts by focusing on the numbers that truly matter. In this episode, we unravel the common traps that derail dental teams, like mistaking positive interactions for meaningful impact or tracking a flood of metrics that don't actually move the needle. Instead, we break down the five essential numbers every team should measure: contacts captured, same-day appointments booked, 24-hour conversions, show rate, and 30-day revenue. You'll learn why your marketing events should function as mini-labs, designed to capture data, test new tactics, and fine-tune your approach for maximum patient growth.We'll guide you step-by-step through capturing leads more effectively, creating urgency for same-day bookings, and turning opportunities into real appointments within 24 hours. Discover practical language tweaks and reminder systems that boost your show rate and ensure new patients walk through your door. Plus, find out how to track 30-day revenue so you know which efforts yield actual ROI—and when it's time to double down or walk away from a partnership. You'll leave with a proven framework for assessing, adjusting, and amplifying your ground marketing strategies (all rooted in actionable data and smart experimentation.)What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why focusing on five core metrics outperforms tracking vanity dataThe step-by-step system for capturing quality leads at every eventHow to create urgency and book more same-day appointmentsTechniques for converting leads within 24 hours for higher successScripts and strategies to improve your show rate dramaticallyHow to tie each event to measurable, 30-day revenue outcomesDiagnosing weak spots (what your data tells you about your marketing gaps)The formula for running controlled, effective marketing experimentsHow to run productive team meetings for ongoing ground marketing successClear benchmarks for deciding when to invest in or drop partnershipsTune in now to turn your ground marketing events into real, revenue-generating engines for your practice!Learn More About the Ground Marketing Course Here:Website: thedentalmarketer.lpages.co/the-ground-marketing-course-open-enrollmentHost: Michael AriasJoin my newsletter: https://thedentalmarketer.lpages.co/newsletter/Join this podcast's Facebook Group: The Dental Marketer SocietyLove the Podcast?

The Far Right in Europe and German Rearmament. Judy Dempsey examines the rise of Europe's far right, noting that while they succeed in complaining, they often struggle to govern, exemplified by the AfD's lack of concrete policies. Hungary's Viktor Orbán, though long-ruling, now faces popular pressure. Dempsey highlights Italy's Giorgia Meloni as an exception who has successfully governed by clearly communicating her reform agenda. She confirms that Russia supports destabilizing far-right movements across Europe, particularly hoping for an AfD win. Additionally, Germany's Chancellor Merz is committed to redeveloping the military and infrastructure for NATO defense.

The other day I found myself walking through a parking garage stairwell in Iowa City, and I realized they were using the same scent design as the local mall in Bratislava where we used to live. Half-shocked, half-amused, I climbed the cement stairs as I remembered riding the escalator through the same subtle scent cloud two years ago. The memory was visceral. Though we don't always think about it, our sensory experiences have a strong impact on how we feel and how we work. I do my best work in a situation where I feel comfortable. In fact, I generally prefer not to work at home because step one, for me, to working at home is often to clean the entire house, put music on, light a candle, pick flowers, make tea, etc. and so I spent an hour prepping to work before I do anything. I bet you've already put considerable time and effort into making your classroom a space where you feel comfortable and where students feel welcome. Today isn't about changing any of that; it's just about finding small places where you might be able to tune your sensory dashboard in class to make it work even better for you and your kiddos. By thinking specifically about the five senses - just like we have students do in their writing - you can find easy wins to make the workspace more welcoming, energizing, and comfortable for everyone inside.

How do we advocate for equity amidst federal policy changes that actively widen gender and racial gaps?Since April, a record-low unemployment rate for Black Americans has skyrocketed, surging from below 5% to 7.5%. At the same time, the unemployment rate for white Americans dropped slightly to below 4%. The economic position for Black women in particular was just beginning to get better, and today, slashed public sector jobs and a slew of other factors are causing a rapid backslide.When people of color, and especially Black women, lose ground, it's a flashing neon warning sign of systemic cracks that, ultimately, impact us all. In this episode, I'm breaking down the of data that highlights just how heavily our current economic problems are impacting American workers, families, and communities.The numbers don't lie. Here's what they show:The federal and public sector job cuts are disproportionately impacting Black women;Attacks on DEI programs are stifling improvements that had barely begun;Good leadership today looks like advocating for equity and opportunity for all.Related Links:Joint Center for Economic and Policy Research, “The Best Black Economy in Generations – And Why It Isn't Enough” - https://jointcenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/The-Best-Black-Economy-in-Generations-Final.pdfEconomic Policy Institute, “What's behind rising unemployment for Black workers?” - https://www.epi.org/blog/whats-behind-rising-unemployment-for-black-workers/The New York Times, “The Racial Wage Gap is Shrinking” - https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/19/briefing/juneteenth-racial-wage-gap.htmlThe New York Times, “In Trump's Federal Work Force Cuts, Black Women Are Among the Hardest Hit” - https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/us/politics/trump-federal-work-force-black-women.htmlMSNBC, “300,000 Black women have left the labor force in 3 months.
