Hello IMPACT SHOW passengers, this is your captain speaking —Todd Durkin, coming to you LIVE from 35,000 feet altitude somewhere between San Diego and Whitefish, Montana!  This one's different as I could not contain my excitement enroute to Montana for our annual Mountain Retreat. I just HAD to hit record because my mind was in major FLOW mode and the lessons were downloading!  This episode is all about MINDSET — how to stay calm in chaos, find clarity in the climb, and keep your faith strong even when life gets turbulent. Because just like flying, life doesn't always give you smooth air. But you can always control your response, your attitude, and your altitude.  Here's What You'll Learn in Episode 453: 1. You Can't Control the Turbulence — But You CAN Control Your Response. Life's gonna shake you. Business dips, plans get flipped, curveballs come outta nowhere. But high performers? They don't panic — we breathe, we stay calm, and we trust our training. I share exactly what happened on my flight this past week and how to navigate life's storms with poise, peace, and purpose. 2. High Altitude = High Awareness. When you rise above the weeds, you see the big picture. Up here, the clarity is unreal. I talk about how to "get above the noise" so you can see your mission, your purpose, and your life from a higher perspective — because clarity doesn't come in chaos; it comes in stillness. And you can't see the vision when you're stuck on the runway. 3. Pre-Flight Rituals = Peak Performance Habits. Every pilot has a pre-flight checklist — and you need one too. I walk you through my own daily ritual: movement, gratitude, journaling, & prayer. These habits anchor me, fuel me, and set the tone for the day. Because I'm telling you — when you win the morning…you win the day; and when you win the day(s)…you ultimately win the weeks, months, quarters, and year(s). 4. Your Final Destination Is Determined by Your Dreams. We all need more "blue-sky" time. We all need more "white-space" in our daily rituals. It's powerful to have some built-in, regular time to write, think, dream, and ultimately do. That's why I'm also firing off 10 powerful questions to get you dreaming again — your Big 5 for Life, your Big 5 for 2026, and what God is whispering in this season. Don't drift. Don't settle. And now is a GREAT time of the year to start 'dreaming.' 5. Your Attitude Determines Your Altitude. You cannot fly high if you're surrounded by people who live low. Protect your energy. Fuel your mind with gratitude and growth. Surround yourself with people who elevate, inspire, and challenge you. Because the higher you go, the thinner the air — and the fewer the distractions. Key Takeaways: Mindset determines your mission. You can't control the turbulence, but you can control your response. Calm is a superpower. Gratitude is rocket fuel. Dream boldly. Live purposefully. Fly with faith. The world needs your energy, faith, and fire — at full altitude. My friends — life's going to have turbulence. We are going to have seasons where life is "bumpy" to say the least. It's important during those times to stay calm; Stay grateful; Stay focused; and stay tapped-in. Keep your seatbelt fastened, your faith strong, and your mindset sky-high. It's time for take-off…it's time for IGNITION!

Did you know that one aspect of being a really successful trader is to surround yourself with other successful traders — other like-minded people from all around the world who are out there achieving greatness in their trading and in their lives in general? Let's talk about that really important topic and more right now. Hey there, it's Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 614. Do you belong to a community of traders? Today I want to talk about a topic that does not get discussed very much. It's a really important topic though, and it can make or break your trading. It's about being part of a community — surrounding yourself, whether it's in person or online, with other like-minded people. People out there who are trading the same way as you. People who are trying to achieve things in their life in general. I think that's such an important part of trading, and I know that for you that's also really important. Survey results show people need to be part of a community of traders. The reason I know that is that a couple of weeks ago, I sent out a survey to people who are not my clients — people who have written to me over the years asking for help or downloaded e-books, been on webinars, etc., but have not yet joined. One of the questions was all about trading community, and it actually had the highest single response. With one answer, it was an overwhelming majority of people — in fact, 76% of all respondents — who said that being part of a community of traders just like them and other traders from around the world is the thing that they are missing out on, and the thing that they value most. 76% of respondents said, “Yes, that's very, very important to me.” The TFTC community helps our clients succeed. And so it got me thinking, because one of the things that we really pride ourselves on here at The Forex Trading Coach is our community. There are a number of ways that we do that. We keep in touch with people, and when I think about how people interact and I look at other ways that people interact online, what we do is vastly different. The trouble is, out there most social media platforms are full of keyboard warriors — quite honestly, idiots at times — the majority probably of people who are out there telling others what they should and shouldn't do. People are taking advice from others who don't really know what they're doing, and they're all out there with their own agenda — not really trading. Most trading forums are a waste of time. The other thing I used to be part of years ago — and I haven't for a long time now — is other forums. The problem is they often get overtaken by some clown who thinks they're going to dominate the forum and they know more than everybody else. A discussion gets out of hand, arguing starts, and it's just ridiculous. Or someone comes up with a good idea and a strategy, and a few threads later it's completely changed because someone says, “Oh, we need to add this,” or “I don't like that,” or “We need to do that.

In this episode of First Round's On Me, Joey and Hannah get real about the grind, ambition, and the balance between love and obsession while building a company and a family.From viral motivational reels to the darkest days of entrepreneurship, they explore what it means to sacrifice comfort for purpose — and why most people quit right before their breakthrough.

Have you ever noticed yourself pulling back right when things start going well? That's not laziness — it's self-sabotage.

Do you ask yourself questions such as "Who am I?" "What's my purpose?" "What is God?" Our guest today, JD Messinger, received answers to these questions and more when he had a spontaneous awakening-type experience. He explains how he sees and hears things that most people do not, yet everyone can learn to do this. During an NDE experience after he broke his neck, he went through the tunnel of Light and came back with spiritual gifts. Prior to this, JD was the former CEO of Ernst & Young Consulting (Singapore), one of 37 distinguished graduates from the US Naval Academy, a former fireman, nuclear submarine officer, and former radio and television show creator, producer, and host. In the world of business, he helped supervise the Valdez Oil spill cleanup and is an advisor to Fortune 100 clients and governments on five continents. After his experience, which he says, "was no accident," he began having prophetic visions and insights. Over the course of eleven days, he conversed with a "mysterious friend" in what became the book, "11 Days in May: The Conversation That Will Change Your Life." Today he offers wisdom that he learned including the importance of focusing on the positive. He says do not give energy to what you do not want. Surround yourself with people who support your beliefs. Be with people who are trying to promote awareness. He also talks about looking for signs, noting synchronicities, and seeing the magic in life every day. Info: TheMessingerInstitute.com.

Today's episode brings scripture and neuroscience together to help you break free. Whether you're battling burnout, depression, stress, or overwhelm, this is your step by step Bible study and devotion time that is rooted in scripture and the science of how God created your brain to heal.   Today's Scripture: Matthew 5:10-11 ESV Today's Gratitude Challenge Prompt covers our last verses in the Beautitudes, 10-11.

In this episode of the Be Wealthy Podcast, Brett Tanner and co-host Katelyn Mitchell unpack how the wealthy think differently about time and relationships — and why mastering both is the foundation for long-term freedom.They discuss how successful entrepreneurs leverage delegation, guard their calendars, and build powerful connections that multiply opportunity.This conversation goes deep into creating leverage in life, scaling impact through people, and protecting your most valuable resource — your time.

When Life Feels Out of ControlWhen everything around you seems chaotic, the first step is to pause and breathe. In moments of turmoil, the mind often magnifies problems, making them appear larger than they are. By slowing down, you give yourself the space to regain perspective. Focus on what is within your control — your thoughts, reactions, and daily actions. Write down the top three things you can realistically manage today, and let go of what is beyond your reach. Control begins with clarity, and clarity begins with calm.Next, reestablish structure and connection. Create a simple routine, even if it's just waking up at a set time, exercising briefly, and reflecting in prayer or journaling. Consistency stabilizes emotions. Surround yourself with supportive voices — mentors, friends, or faith-centered communities — who remind you of your purpose and strength. Remember, feeling out of control doesn't mean you've lost your direction; it's an invitation to refocus your energy on what truly matters and rebuild from within.Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher talks about what action steps to take when 'your life feels out of control'. 

Trump brings Gaza war crimes home to US autistics.Using starvation to subjugate people is a war crime, whether at the point of a gun or denying SNAP benefits.November 1st, SNAP halted. Healthcare funding threatened. Social Security could vanish, Trump warns. 42 million Americans face losing food assistance. Not someday—right now.A nation that uses starvation on its own civilians? I'm no lawyer, but I'd argue that's tantamount to war on its own people. Any day of the week. And I consider it a crime in its own right, even if courts reserve “war crime” for armed conflict.I can hear it already: “You're being dramatic. That's hyperbolic. You can't compare domestic policy to Gaza.”Watch me.Medieval siege techniques. Surround them and starve them out. Whether it's Gaza or Indiana.What's Actually Happening?The Trump administration threatens benefits we count on to exist as political leverage during government shutdown negotiations. Support promised to the American public for decades, transformed into weapons to get what Trump wants.Here's what international law says about that. The Rome Statute explicitly classifies starvation of civilians as a war crime, a crime against humanity. Around the world, deliberately depriving people of food for political gain—that's defined as genocide.These aren't my words, they're international law.Gaza starvation: internationally recognized war crime.SNAP weaponization: They can call it an unfortunate policy choice, but it's the same tactic, just a different population. Location doesn't change that. Denying food to gain power simply is withholding food, withholding life for power. They're not negotiating. They're holding a gun to our heads.Why Autistics First?Numbers tell you everything you need to know. Autistics face an 85% unemployment rate. So we depend a lot on SNAP—I do. Most of us depend on Medicaid to see our doctors, and many of us are disabled, unable to work. So SSI dependency just to live, it's a high priority.The government knows exactly who gets hit when they pull these levers: autistics, neurodivergents. We're the most vulnerable first. We have the least political power of any minority group, I think.And look at the language they use. “Efficiency.” “Streamlining.” “Reducing dependency.” It's the old Nazi “useless eaters” logic dressed up in techno-bro management appeal. Killing off the weak, dusted off and wrapped in budget terminology. We're the testing ground, that's how it always works. Start with disabled people. Normalize the tactic. See who complains, see if you can get away with it. Then expand to the next group.We're the canaries in the coal mine. We die first. And we're already choking.The Roll Call of History: Every Empire Does ThisWant to know how I know this is a war crime? Because every failing empire does exactly this. Brings colonial violence home. Every. Single. One.France took torture techniques from Algeria, brought them home for Paris riot control. The U.S. militarized policing in the Philippines, deployed in Ferguson. Britain did the exact same thing: tactics used in the Irish colonies, in India, that came home to British workers as labor disputes escalated.This isn't speculation. This is documented history. The Ottoman Empire in its death throes: Armenian genocide, Greek genocide, Assyrian genocide. Ancient Rome. Ancient Egypt. Every single one.The pattern is always the same. It starts with unpopular groups: Jews, immigrants, disabled people, people they call “defective,” “foreign,” “unproductive.” Test on them first, see if anyone notices, see if anyone stops you, then expand.Scholars have a term for this: the “boomerang effect.” Or “internal colonialism”—when you apply colonial logic to your own people. Black radical thinkers saw this first, by the way. They recognized the pattern decades ago.The Gaslighting Ends HereSo when someone says “You're being dramatic”? No. I'm being historically accurate.“That's hyperbolic.” The Rome Statute disagrees. I can read you the details.“You can't compare domestic policy to war.” Every empire in history already done that. They already made that comparison for me.We're not comparing tragedies. “Who's suffering more than who?” We're recognizing tragedy.When policy debates require trigger warnings like this article, like this livestream, maybe it's not policy.When negotiations threaten survival, maybe they're not negotiations.When efficiency means starvation, maybe it's not efficient. It's fucking violence.That need for trigger warnings says it's violence. Not discourse. We're not being fragile. We're being informed. We're watching it happen in real time. Hell, it's obvious in every bowl of beans I eat instead of a hell of heavily tariffed hamburger.What We DoLiving through empire in decline: deadly for many. But here's what we do.We call it as we see it. We refuse sanitized language.When they say “policy,” we call it violence. Because starvation kills as sure as a bullet. Just slower.When they say “negotiate,” we name it hostage taking for the purpose of political power.When they say “efficiency,” we shout starvation tactics.It's medieval siege by budget. No catapults. No cannons. Just clean spreadsheets.We document the pattern. We recognize what's really happening while it's happening. We tell the truth about what we're witnessing.

Proverbs 13 invites us into a profound exploration of what it means to live wisely in every dimension of our lives. This chapter unfolds like a roadmap, guiding us through four essential territories: correction, desires and resources, God's Word, and relationships with legacy. We discover that wisdom isn't merely intellectual knowledge—it's Jesus Himself, personified and active in our daily choices. The journey begins with correction, reminding us that growth requires humility to receive rebuke and instruction. We're challenged to guard our mouths, recognizing that words flowing from our hearts shape our reality and either preserve or destroy our lives. The contrast between the diligent and the lazy, the truthful and the deceitful, becomes starkly clear. As we move through this chapter, we encounter the liberating truth that material wealth doesn't equal true richness—some of the poorest people possess the greatest treasures of joy, friendship, and purpose. We're confronted with the reality that pride generates all conflict, while humility opens the door to salvation itself. The fountain of life flows from God's Word, turning us away from death's snares and filling us with hope that sustains even in seasons of waiting. Perhaps most powerfully, we're reminded that wisdom builds legacy—not just financial inheritance, but character, faith, and godly example passed to our children and grandchildren. The companions we choose, the correction we embrace, and the pursuit of righteousness over wickedness determine whether we walk in satisfaction or perpetual emptiness.### Sermon Notes#### Introduction- The speaker acknowledges the joke about being long-winded and expresses gratitude for the church's support and involvement in missions.- Video presentation showcasing the impact of Vessel of Honor Ministries in Myanmar, Kenya, and the Bahamas, highlighting God's faithfulness and the church's annual $10,000 contribution.#### Main Sermon: Proverbs 13 - "The Way of the Wise"1. **Introduction to Proverbs 13**  - Proverbs often appears disjointed, but it reveals a moral progression.  - Wisdom is personified as Jesus throughout Proverbs.2. **Four Subsections of Proverbs 13**  - **Wisdom Begins with Correction (Verses 1-6)**   - A wise son listens to correction; a scoffer does not.   - The mouth reflects the heart.   - Words can preserve or destroy life.   - The diligent thrive; the lazy fail.   - Righteousness hates falsehood; the wicked seek lies.  - **Wisdom Governs Desires and Resources (Verses 7-12)**   - Material wealth does not equal true riches.   - The rich may be ransomed; the poor are unnoticed.   - True hope sustains the heart.  - **Wisdom Delights in God's Word and Counsel (Verses 13-19)**   - Despising God's Word leads to destruction.   - God's Word is life-giving.   - Humility is key to wisdom.   - Desire fulfilled is sweet to the soul.  - **Wisdom Builds Relationships and Legacy (Verses 20-25)**   - Walking with the wise leads to wisdom.   - Avoiding evil brings good.   - A good man leaves an inheritance for descendants.   - Discipline shows love to children.### Practical Applications1. **Seek Wisdom in Correction**  - Be open to constructive criticism and correction.  - Reflect on how you can be more receptive to wise counsel.2. **Evaluate Your Desires and Resources**  - Consider where your desires are leading you.  - Use your resources wisely for long-term benefits rather than temporary pleasures.3. **Engage Deeply with God's Word**  - Make daily Bible reading a habit to understand God's wisdom.  - Apply biblical principles to navigate life's challenges.4. **Build Meaningful Relationships and Legacy**  - Surround yourself with wise individuals to grow in wisdom.  - Think about the legacy you want to leave for future generations.### Discussion Questions1. **Wisdom and Correction:**  - How do you typically respond to correction, and how can you improve your openness to it?  - What are some practical steps you can take to guard your speech and reflect a heart of wisdom?2. **Desires and Resources:**  - How can you align your desires with God's wisdom to ensure they lead to true fulfillment?  - In what ways can you better manage your resources to avoid vanity and instead support others?3. **God's Word and Counsel:**  - What challenges do you face in making time for God's Word daily, and how can you overcome them?  - How has God's Word been a source of life and guidance in a specific situation you've faced?4. **Relationships and Legacy:**  - Who are the wise individuals in your life, and how have they influenced you?  - What steps can you take to ensure you are leaving a positive legacy for your descendants?These notes, applications, and questions can help individuals reflect on how they can apply the teachings of Proverbs 13 to their lives and encourage meaningful discussions in a group setting.

In this episode, Felicia discusses the importance of guarding your heart based on Proverbs 4:23. She emphasizes that the heart is the center of our emotions, intentions, and faith, and that its condition directly influences our lives. Felicia shares insights on how to protect your heart from negativity, set boundaries, and cultivate inner peace through faith and God's word. She also reflects on her personal journey of learning to guard her heart and the transformative power of allowing God to be the gatekeeper of our emotions.TakeawaysGuard your heart for everything you do flows from it.The heart is the center of our emotion, intentions, and faith.What you allow will eventually come out.Guard your heart brings peace and power.Your heart is sacred; it's where God speaks.You can't control how people treat you, but you can control what you allow.Let God be the gatekeeper of your heart.Keep your heart pure, soft, and strong through prayer.Surround yourself with people who will pour into you.Your heart is worth protecting.

Losing a spouse can shake every part of life—but God promises to walk with you through each next step.When loss turns life upside down, even simple financial decisions can feel overwhelming. But with God's help—and a few practical steps forward—there is hope and healing ahead. Today, Valerie Hogan joins us to share guidance for navigating the financial journey after losing a spouse.Valerie Hogan is an attorney, a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), a member of Kingdom Advisors, and the co-author of Wise Women Managing Money: Expert Advice on Debt, Wealth, Budgeting, and More with Miriam Neff. Grief and Finances Are Deeply ConnectedWhen grief hits, clarity often disappears. You may feel pressure to “get everything settled” or, on the other hand, find it impossible to make even small decisions. Both reactions are normal.Grief colors everything. It's difficult to separate financial choices from emotional pain. And that's okay. The key is to give yourself permission not to have all the answers right away.Statistics show that about 80% of women will outlive their husbands. That means most of us will one day find ourselves managing finances alone. And many women, especially from earlier generations, weren't as involved in financial decisions during marriage.After loss, that reality can be intimidating. Suddenly, you're faced with choices about investments, taxes, home maintenance, and budgets—often with less income and more years of life ahead. Those early months matter, but they shouldn't be rushed.Start with This Truth: God Owns It AllBefore any practical steps, I want to anchor you in a truth that has carried me and countless others through difficult seasons: God owns it all.Everything we have belongs to Him, and He is with us as we steward it. Remembering that doesn't erase the pain, but it reminds us we're not alone. It shifts the weight of control off our shoulders and invites God's wisdom into our decisions.That truth gives us permission to move slowly and prayerfully. Stewardship is not about perfection—it's about trust.Steps for Navigating the Early DaysHere are some guiding steps I often share with widows who ask, “Where do I even begin?”1. Take One Step at a TimeYou don't need to fix everything today. Unless a change is absolutely urgent, give yourself space to rest and recover. Grief has a way of making even simple tasks feel monumental. Be patient with yourself.2. Avoid Major Financial Moves Too SoonTry not to make significant financial decisions while emotions are raw. Some women have sold homes, moved away, or invested large sums during intense grief—only to regret it later. Wait until your heart is steadier before making big changes.3. Get Organized, Little by LittleLoss often leaves behind a mountain of paperwork. Start small—maybe one pile, one folder, one hour. Ask a trusted friend or advisor to help if it feels overwhelming. Progress comes one decision at a time.4. Track What's Coming In and Going OutAwareness brings peace. You don't have to overhaul your budget immediately—just begin noticing where money is going. Clarity grows with consistency.5. Lean on Trusted AdvisorsChoose people who will look out for your best interest—those with integrity and experience, not pressure or sales motives. A trusted financial planner, attorney, or advisor can help you think clearly when emotions run high.6. Anchor Everything in PrayerThis is the most important step. God cares deeply when His people are hurting. Invite Him into every conversation, every decision, every bill you open. He is your provider and your comforter.Build a “Personal Board of Directors”Form a personal board of directors—a small circle of wise people you can lean on for different kinds of counsel.You might include:A spiritually mature friend who prays with youA financial professional with integrityAn encourager who helps you stay hopefulA practical helper who can sit with you through paperworkEach one brings something valuable. Just remember: not every encourager is a financial guide, and not every advisor is a prayer partner. Surround yourself with a balanced mix of wisdom and compassion.Know It. Own It. Like It. Change It.In their book Wise Women Managing Money, Miriam Neff and Valerie Neff Hogan use a simple four-part framework that applies beautifully here:Know it—Gather the facts. What do you own? What do you owe?Own it—Accept responsibility for your new role as steward.Like it—Evaluate your current situation honestly.Change it—Begin making small, steady adjustments that align with your goals and faith.You don't need to have it all figured out. Start by knowing where you are—and trust that God will guide each next step.If you've recently lost your spouse, please hear this: there are brighter days ahead. It may not feel that way now, but God will give you strength and wisdom in time. I've seen hundreds of widows rebuild, heal, and even thrive again.Take one step at a time. Pray often. Surround yourself with wise, loving people. And remember—you're not alone.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:A friend once told me they only tip 10% at restaurants, so they don't end up giving a server more than they give to God. Now that's stuck with me—every time I eat out, I think about it. Am I looking at this the wrong way? What's the right, biblical way to think about tipping and giving?I recently set up a trust, and I own two homes—one's paid off and the other still has a mortgage. Both properties are titled in my name. Do I need to transfer or re-deed those homes into the trust, or can I leave them as they are since they're already in my name?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Wise Women Managing Money: Expert Advice on Debt, Wealth, Budgeting, and More by Miriam Neff and Valerie Neff Hogan, J.D. Widow ConnectionWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

She emphasizes the role of faith and trust in God when facing trials and adversity. Through biblical references and personal anecdotes, she encourages listeners to embrace their challenges as opportunities for spiritual growth and to seek support from God-centered individuals. Ms. G also highlights the dangers of turning to unhealthy coping mechanisms and the necessity of maintaining hope and resilience in difficult times.TakeawaysLearning to stand during dark moments is crucial.Trusting God is essential during trials.Adversity can lead to spiritual growth.It's important to choose the right path in difficult times.Surround yourself with God-centered people.Don't turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms.Perseverance produces character and hope.God will not give you more than you can handle.Keep fighting the good fight of faith.You are needed by others, so don't give up.Standing Strong in AdversityFaith Through Trials"Trust God through the process.""Don't give up on God.""Somebody out there needs you."

Let's get real—most women are starving for real connection in a world obsessed with performance. We scroll through “friends,” “followers,” and “likes,” yet rarely find the kind of soul-level relationships that build our faith instead of drain it. The Bible paints a better picture—one where women lift each other up, pray each other through, and call each other higher.Friendship and mentorship aren't optional in the Kingdom—they're God's design.Proverbs 27:17 says, “Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.” Translation? The right relationships will refine you, not just reassure you. You don't grow stronger surrounded by people who only tell you what you want to hear. You grow surrounded by people who love you enough to tell you the truth, pray when you're struggling, and celebrate when you rise.True sisterhood doesn't gossip—it guards. It doesn't compete—it completes. A godly friend will stand with you in battle and stand for you in prayer. And mentorship? That's just discipleship with a face and a name. Titus 2 gives us a clear call: older women should train the younger to walk in godliness. That's not just a church policy—it's a generational mandate.The world says, “You do you.”Heaven says, “We do this together.”Some of you listening have been burned by betrayal. You've opened your heart and watched it be mishandled. Hear me—God can redeem that. Don't let wounds make you a lone warrior. The enemy wants isolated believers because isolated believers are easy to pick off. A woman who's covered in community is a fortress.Mentorship is not about superiority—it's about stewardship. What God has taught you was never meant to stop with you. The scars you've survived can be the map another woman needs to find healing. You don't need a stage—just a coffee table, an open Bible, and a willing heart.And to the younger women listening—don't confuse independence with maturity. You need voices who've gone before you. Lean in. Ask questions. Let their victories shorten your learning curve.

Pastor Jim unpacks Proverbs 13:20 and Psalm 1 to show how the company we keep directly shapes who we become. Jim explains that walking with the wise leads to wisdom, while surrounding ourselves with foolishness leads to harm. He challenges listeners to consider the voices forming their decisions, asking whether they are rooted in the gospel or in the passing wisdom of the world. True wisdom, Jim teaches, is found in walking closely with people who love the gospel and love us enough to speak truth, receive our confession, and anchor us in God's grace. This message calls us to take stock of our relationships and intentionally walk with those who help us become more like Jesus, not just for our own good but for God's glory and mission in the world.Note: This message contains a brief mention of suicide.

What if mentoring wasn't just one person investing in a kid—but an entire circle of caring adults surrounding them with encouragement, accountability, and faith? That's exactly what Ben Bevis, Executive Director of Encircled, is doing. In this episode, host Zach Garza talks with Ben about how “mentor circles” are transforming the way we support young people from hard places.On this episode, we will chat about:The Vision Behind Encircled: Ben shares how thirty years of youth ministry, therapy, and family coaching led him to launch Encircled—a nonprofit helping parents, mentors, and communities form intentional “circles” around youth.The Power of Many Mentors: Research shows that youth with multiple trusted adults are more resilient, more likely to thrive, and less likely to fall through the cracks. Ben explains why one mentor is good—but five can be life-changing.How the Encircled App Works: Using free resources and a simple app, mentors (or “guides”) help kids discover their God-given identity, gifts, and vision, then invite key people into a mentoring circle that walks with them for the long haul.Stories that Inspire: From the heartbreaking loss of a former mentee to the redemption story of “Bill,” whose circle helped him rediscover his love for music and faith, Ben illustrates the beauty and impact of shared mentorship.“This next generation wasn't meant to do life on their own, but in community.” — Ben BevisMentors don't have to do it alone. Surround yourself—and your mentee—with others who will show up, pray, encourage, and share the load.Learn more about Ben Bevis and Encircled at encircled.org.--If this podcast has encouraged or equipped you, would you take 30 seconds to leave a 5-star rating?

Welcome to The K9PT Academy podcast, the only podcast in veterinary rehabilitation & physical therapy that focuses on helping business owners and entrepreneurs build and scale a profitable and successful canine rehabilitation business! As the twins start childcare and TheK9PT completed its 8th anniversary, I've been reflecting on how the days are long, but the years are short—both in parenthood and business. Eight years have passed since I left my job to start TheK9PT, and while some days felt endless and overwhelming, looking back it's incredible to see how much growth and transformation came from those moments. In this episode, I share lessons learned from both parenthood and entrepreneurship about slowing down, building resiliency, asking for help, and letting go of ego—so you can build a business that supports your life, not consumes it. Listen to the full episode as we discuss:

Step Away from Selfish Ambition It's easy to get caught up in the "I" of ambition, but Erin encourages us to check our motives.

In this special SaaS Fuel episode, host Jeff Mains welcomes James Piacentino, co-founder and CEO of Thrive Genetics—a company at the intersection of healthcare, genetics, technology, and compassionate mission. James shares his deeply personal connection to the opioid crisis, describing the family loss that shaped his life's purpose and eventually sparked the founding of Thrive Genetics.The conversation explores how advances in genetic testing, behavioral analysis, and AI are enabling physicians to proactively identify and mitigate addiction risk—before opioids are prescribed. Along the way, they discuss building solutions in complex, regulated markets, the importance of pilots and product-market fit, and why mission-driven leadership can turn innovation into real-world impact.Key Takeaways00:00 "Building Leaders and Scaling Success"06:25 Generational Trauma: Beyond Genetics07:24 Breaking Cycles Through Innovation11:53 High Pain Procedures and Opioids15:30 "Genetic Testing for Addiction Risk"20:09 Market Applications and Opportunities22:48 Integrated Healthcare Ecosystem Insights25:43 "Customer-Centered Product Development Insights"29:36 "Vision and Path to Scale"33:52 Streamlining Customer Service Efficiency37:27 "Focus on Solutions, Not Problems"40:01 Simplifying Healthcare Innovation43:18 "Collaborate for Impactful Leadership"47:18 AI Monitors Patient Pain Signals49:50 "Simple Design, De-Identified Data"52:16 "Embracing Rejection as Growth"55:36 "Fractional Legal & Personality Insights"Tweetable QuotesViral Topic: Building Products That Truly Fit Customer Needs: "It's very important to sit with your customer and just literally build the product to ensure that you are satisfying those specific business needs." — James PiacentinoViral Topic: Simplicity in Healthcare Innovation: "Complicated's fun and tech, maybe, but when you get into these healthcare scenarios, it's gotta be really, really lean, simple." — James Piacentino Viral Topic: Keep It Simple in Complex Systems: "We're just giving you some Information to use.

This week, Ceri is joined by Bastian Bischoff and Per Emanuelson, the co-founders of Humans Since 1982 a Stockholm based studio where art, design and technology collide. Together with engineer David Cox and a team of international specialists, they've built a practice that re-imagines the simplest of objects, transforming time itself into spectacle. Their kinetic sculptures, ClockClock and A Million Times are now icons of contemporary design and art, hypnotic systems that mesmerise audiences while commanding extraordinary markets. Behind the headlines lies a story of risk, resilience, and relentless curiosity. Bastion and Per share the discipline of editing ideas down to their purest form, the challenges of building a collective, and the balance between entrepreneurial drive and artistic freedom. I hope you find it as inspiring as I did. KEY TAKEAWAYS Bastian and Per seamlessly combine conceptual rigour with entrepreneurial ambition. Humans since 1982 didn't wait for permission. A prototype posted online caught the attention of galleries, collectors, and the press, catapulting them into the global design-art market almost overnight. Humans Since 1982 built a studio where precision and play coexist, a place to break the rules. Complex engineering is distilled into simplicity, and each piece is designed to outlive its makers, cared for across generations. Surround yourself with people who share your drive and values. But don´t shy away from a multi-disciplinary approach. That is where the magic happens. BEST MOMENTS “Within two years, we'd gone from students to selling work to celebrities.” “You don't have to choose between being commercially powerful and creatively uncompromising.” “We always talk about people having to bring some sort of entrepreneurial thinking and drive - the spirit to create something, to move forward and bring something to the market.” “Beauty, intellect and business can thrive together” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.humanssince1982.com https://www.instagram.com/humanssince1982 You can subscribe to their newsletter from there.

This episode is powered by The Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz , your first step in uncovering how to leverage your divine wiring to lead with alignment as you stop sabotaging your next level of success. Discover your divine wiring and uncover what's REALLY keeping YOU from millions. The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. This week we are rewinding one of our favorite Move to Millions Minutes of the year.  This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I am stepping into my bigness, boldly embracing the vast opportunities that are unfolding for me. I no longer play small, but fully claim my space in the world. Fear is a signal that I am on the edge of my next breakthrough, and I welcome it as a catalyst for growth. I am ready to rise, take risks, and lead with confidence. God and His abundant universe are aligning everything I need to support my bigger vision, and I trust that my abundance is already within me." Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Claim Your Space: Identify one area in your life or business where you've been playing small. Whether it's a conversation you've avoided or a decision you've been delaying, commit to taking up space there by stepping into your greatness. Don't apologize for your bigness; it's time to own it. Elevate Your Vision: Stretch your goals beyond what feels comfortable. If your current goals don't scare you or make you feel a bit nervous, they're likely too small. Set goals that push you to grow, and trust that the universe will help you achieve them when you step into your bigger vision. Take Bold Action: Don't wait for perfection. Take one bold action today toward your bigger vision, whether it's pitching a client, launching a new offer, or making a tough decision. Fear indicates that you're stepping out of your comfort zone and onto the path of growth. Affirm with me: "I am stepping into my bigness, boldly embracing the vast opportunities that are unfolding for me. I no longer play small, but fully claim my space in the world. Fear is a signal that I am on the edge of my next breakthrough, and I welcome it as a catalyst for growth. I am ready to rise, take risks, and lead with confidence. God and His abundant universe are aligning everything I need to support my bigger vision, and I trust that my abundance is already within me." And this week's journal prompts are: "One area where I've been playing small and need to claim my space is..." "To elevate my vision for 2025, I need to stretch my goals by..." "A bold action I can take right now to step into my bigness is..." And your prayer of the week: Prayer for Boldness and Abundance: Heavenly Father, I come before You today with a heart full of gratitude for the incredible individuals listening to this episode. I ask that You guide them as they step into their bigness, shedding any fear or limiting beliefs that have held them back. Lord, give them the courage to take up space unapologetically, to embrace their divine calling, and to trust that the abundance they seek is already on its way. I pray that You align their hearts with their bigger vision and that they feel Your presence in every step they take toward their dreams. May they be bold in their actions, confident in their worth, and unwavering in their faith. Help them to remember that abundance is their birthright, and that as they move forward, they are never alone. Lord, expand their capacity to receive and hold the greatness that is meant for them. Let them feel Your guidance and strength as they boldly pursue their calling. Surround them with opportunities, people, and resources to support their journey. In Your name, we pray. Amen.

This week on the Tough Girl Podcast, I'm joined by Veronica White — a PhD student, photographer, and outdoor adventurer who is combining academic research with exploration in a truly unique way. For her final year at the University of Exeter, Veronica set out on an extraordinary journey: cycling more than 2,000 miles across England to explore how women envision the future of farming. Her Farming Futures Tour— meeting and interviewing 50 women along the way who are shaping the future of food and agriculture. Born in the US and raised in the Netherlands, Veronica's path into farming wasn't traditional. With a background in environmental science and food security, she's found her passion in connecting people, place, and purpose — and using adventure as both a research method and a personal challenge. In our conversation, we talk about how she planned and trained for the project, what it was like to balance the mental and physical demands of fieldwork on the move, and why she believes surrounding yourself with people who say “yes” can make all the difference.  Tune in to hear how Veronica turned her PhD into a pedal-powered exploration of England's rural landscapes — and how adventure can open new ways of seeing, learning, and connecting.  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges?

Children naturally imitate those they love and trust. In our daily prayer and devotional, we remember how they learn by watching, copying, and repeating what they see. In the same way, God calls His children to imitate Him—to reflect His love, compassion, and holiness in our daily lives. Emily Rose Massey reminds us that just as parents model godly character for their children, we are called to model our lives after Christ. Jesus’ life was the ultimate picture of selfless love—He “gave Himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” Imitating Him means walking in humility, extending grace to others, and choosing love even when it costs us something. Imitating Christ also means learning from the examples of faithful believers who have gone before us—like Paul, who urged the early Church to follow his example as he followed Christ (1 Corinthians 11:1). Paul’s life was marked by joy in suffering and unwavering trust in God. He modeled what it looks like to prioritize God’s glory over comfort and ease. As we spend time in God’s Word, abide in His presence, and walk alongside other believers, we are shaped into His likeness little by little. This lifelong process of imitation transforms us from the inside out, teaching us to love sacrificially and live for the glory of God rather than for ourselves. Today's Bible Reading: "Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God." – Ephesians 5:1-2, ESV Key Takeaways We are called to imitate God by walking in love, just as Christ loved and sacrificed for us. True imitation begins with abiding in Christ and being transformed by His Spirit. Surround yourself with mentors and believers who model Christlike living. Every act of selfless love becomes a fragrant offering of worship to God. Let’s Pray Together Heavenly Father, thank You for saving me and calling me to walk in Your love. Help me to imitate Christ in every area of my life—my words, actions, and thoughts. Strengthen me to live with humility, grace, and boldness for Your glory. Surround me with believers who encourage me to walk faithfully and remind me to fix my eyes on Jesus, the perfect example of love and obedience. In His name I pray, Amen.
