They discuss the influence of social media and secret societies on modern narratives, legislative support for Israel, and theological reflections on prophecy and judgment. This conversation delves into various themes including geocentrism, the significance of humanity in creation, the implications of Israel's existence, and the exploration of spiritual realms and alien theories.

For many, autumn is a season of beauty—colorful leaves, crisp air, and cozy traditions. But as our daily prayer and devotional remind us, for others, the season can reopen deep wounds of grief. Losing a loved one during this time can make every falling leaf feel like a reminder of what has been lost. Grief is not something to hide or feel ashamed of—it is the natural expression of love for someone who is no longer here. Jesus’ words in the Beatitudes assure us that those who mourn are not abandoned in their pain. Instead, God promises His presence and comfort in the midst of sorrow. The Lord draws near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 147:3) and faithfully carries us when grief feels unbearable. Over time, He not only comforts us but also equips us to comfort others in their mourning (2 Corinthians 1:3-5). In this way, even our deepest pain can become a vessel of compassion and encouragement. If autumn carries grief for you, know that you are not alone. God’s light still shines through the darkness, and His presence offers hope and healing—even in the hardest seasons. Today's Bible Verse: "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” – Matthew 5:4 (NIV) Key Takeaways Grief is a natural and holy expression of love—it is nothing to be ashamed of. God promises to comfort those who mourn (Matthew 5:4). The Lord draws close to the brokenhearted and heals our wounds (Psalm 147:3). Our own grief can equip us to extend comfort and empathy to others in pain. Let’s Pray Together Dear Jesus, autumn feels full of grief this year. Please help me to accept my sorrow as a reflection of love and not push it away. Surround me with Your comfort, fill my heart with Your hope, and help me to see glimpses of beauty even in my pain. Use my story to encourage others walking through grief, and remind me that You are always near. Amen.

Prayer to the Archangels Feast Day: September 29Heavenly Father, You have given us the protection and guidance of your holy Archangels— St. Michael, St. Gabriel, and St. Raphael. We ask their intercession and help in our journey to you.

One of the greatest lies the enemy whispers to men is, “You're better off alone.” He wants you isolated, convinced you don't need anyone, and ashamed of your struggles. But Scripture tells us something different: we are stronger together. God designed brotherhood and accountability as weapons against sin, weakness, and discouragement. Real men don't fight their battles alone—they link arms with brothers who sharpen them, challenge them, and call them higher.Our springboard for today's discussion is:“Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.” — Proverbs 27:17 (ESV)Sharpening isn't a gentle process—it involves friction. Sparks fly. But without it, iron grows dull. And the same is true for men. Without brothers who will challenge us, confront us, and encourage us, we drift into weakness.Brotherhood means more than casual friendship. It means intentional connection with men who share your pursuit of Christ. Men who will tell you the truth, not just what you want to hear. Men who will pray for you, not gossip about you. Men who will pull you back when you're drifting and push you forward when you're hesitating.Accountability often gets a bad reputation—like it's only about confessing sin. But accountability is much bigger than that. It's about growth. It's about having men in your life who ask the hard questions, who celebrate your victories, and who won't let you settle for less than God's best.The culture says, “Handle your business alone.” God says, “Two are better than one.” The enemy trembles when men of God lock shields together, because he knows isolated men are vulnerable—but united men are unstoppable.Question of the Day:Do you have brothers in your life who sharpen you—or are you trying to fight your battles alone?Mini Call to Action:Reach out to one brother today. Ask him how he's really doing—and then let him ask you the same. Sharpen each other with honesty.Prayer:Lord, thank You for the gift of brotherhood. Surround me with men who will sharpen me and help me grow. Give me courage to be honest, humble, and accountable, so I can become the man You've called me to be.Let's Get To Work!The lone wolf may look tough, but he rarely survives.

Coleton began with a story about accidentally cutting himself with his dad's pocketknife. Just like with the knife, he wants to handle this text carefully because it's often misunderstood—either leading people to miss out on what Jesus promises or to become disillusioned when prayer doesn't seem to work. ⸻ 1. What Is Jesus Actually Saying? •    Jesus says: “Truly I tell you…” — a phrase He uses in other places where the words were fulfilled literally (Peter's denial, eternal life, heaven and earth passing away). •    Therefore, we should not reinterpret His words about prayer and mountains to mean something symbolic. •    Jesus also says “anyone” and “whatever you ask,” which expands the promise beyond just the disciples. •    The phrase “moving mountains” was a common Jewish saying about impossible tasks, showing Jesus meant bold prayers that seem impossible. Quote: •    “Moving mountains” became a figure of speech for a task that was considered virtually impossible. — Background Commentary ⸻ 2. How Did the Disciples Respond? •    The disciples didn't reinterpret Jesus—they prayed boldly in Acts. •    They spoke directly to mountains (sickness, persecution, demons, even death) and God responded powerfully. •    Examples: Acts 3 (healing), Acts 9 (raising Tabitha), Acts 16 (casting out spirits), James 5 (prayer of faith heals the sick). •    The evidence shows they took Jesus at His word and practiced it literally. ⸻ 3. Why Don't We Experience This Today? •    Many don't expect God to act powerfully anymore because: •    Lack of faith (James 4:2) •    Selfish motives (James 4:3) •    Broken relationships (1 Peter 3:7) •    Cherishing sin (Psalm 66:18–19) •    Lack of persistence (Luke 18) •    We've been taught to reinterpret Jesus, so our expectation for prayer is low. •    Doubt is a major barrier: doubting that prayer works, that God hears us, or that He will act. Quote: •    “Two thousand years of exegesis have successfully explained away texts like these… They have awkwardly suppressed the fact that the Bible clearly presents healing and miracles as something Jesus and the early church practiced and expected…” — Ulrich Luz, paraphrased by Frederick Dale Bruner ⸻ 4. How Do We Grow in Faith for Prayer? •    Fight doubt by deepening trust in God's character through Scripture and prayer. •    Ask God to increase your faith. •    Surround yourself with people of strong faith. •    Read accounts of powerful prayer in history. (Great book: E.M. Bounds —On Prayer) •    Seek God's will for what you're praying—He will reveal it. ⸻ 5. Don't Settle for Less     •    Jesus gave His life to give us access to God in prayer—why would He do this if our prayers were powerless? •    Don't reinterpret Jesus' words to fit your experience. Instead, pursue the experience Jesus promised. •    There is real power in prayer when we remove hindrances, pray in faith, and seek God's will. Discussion Questions: 1. What stood out to you from Sundays message? 2. How does looking at the way the disciples prayed in the book of Acts shape your confidence in Jesus' words about prayer? 3. Of the hindrances to prayer which do you most relate to? Why? 4. Do you think doubt is a bigger struggle with God's ability or His willingness? 5. Who in your life strengthens your faith when you struggle with doubt?

Depression and seasons of deep sadness can make life feel like it’s swallowed up in darkness. In our daily prayer and devotion, we remember that whether triggered by circumstances or unexplainable inner struggles, those moments can feel isolating and overwhelming. Yet Scripture reminds us that the light of Christ shines brighter than any darkness we face. Jesus is not only the Light of the World (John 8:12), but He also promises that the darkness cannot overcome Him. Even when our hearts feel heavy and hopeless, His presence brings warmth, direction, and peace. Turning to Him in prayer, leaning on His Word, and allowing His people to surround us with encouragement can help us see His light even in the darkest valleys. Depression may not vanish overnight, but the promise of John 1:5 assures us that the darkness will never win. Christ’s light prevails—and we can cling to Him for the strength to keep moving forward. Today's Bible Reading "In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” – John 1:4-5 Key Takeaways Depression and sadness may linger, but they are not stronger than Christ’s light. Isolation makes darkness heavier; community and God’s Word bring renewal. Jesus, the Light of the World, promises that the darkness cannot overcome Him. Turning to Him in prayer helps us shift our focus from despair to His radiant hope. Let’s Pray Together Dear Jesus, please help me find light when I feel surrounded by darkness. You are the world’s light, and Your love pierces through despair. Surround me with Your brilliance and guide me to trust You even in the hardest moments. My heart praises You, Lord. Amen. Calls to Action Reach out to a trusted friend or counselor if you are struggling with depression. Write down verses about God’s light (like John 1:5 or Psalm 27:1) and keep them nearby. Share this prayer with someone who may be walking through a dark season.

Agency is your power of choice - your capacity to intentionally influence your life and circumstances. It means you're the author of your life, exercising control over your choices while recognizing you can't control every circumstance or other people's behavior.Three Key Aspects of Reclaiming Agency:Build Skills and Expand Capacity - Stay open to ongoing learning, discovery, and education. Surround yourself with people doing brave inner work. Acquire new ideas and practices that help you grow beyond your current bubble. Build nervous system regulation skills and healthy patterns.Live on Purpose - Develop strong self-knowledge and self-trust so you can walk out your values and vision. Use your strengths and gifts meaningfully in the world. Become awake to your impact - what you pour into yourself spills over into the world around you.Practice Hope in Action - Take radical ownership of your life without handing your power of choice to others. Hope isn't just a feeling - it's a way of thinking and being that requires action. You have multiple pathways forward; step into the light you have rather than waiting to see the whole path.Agency is intimately connected to your nervous system capacity. When you're regulated and resourced, you have greater access to choice and can pause between impulse and response. Reclaiming your agency shifts you from surviving to thriving, from autopilot to living on purpose.Learn about my cycle of self-awareness + self-compassion + imperfect action = agency in episode 62.Learn more about self-awareness in episode 63.Learn more about self-compassion in episode 64.Learn more about imperfect action in episode 65Join the Brave + Beautiful Community this Autumn - doors are open! https://www.alifeinprogress.ca/community/Get the resource to help you practice Imperfect Action: https://www.alifeinprogress.ca/how-to-practice-imperfect-action/Practice Hope-In-Action: https://www.alifeinprogress.ca/what-is-hope-and-why-i-practice-hope-in-action/

In this episode of The Way We See It, Alex has a rich and thought-provoking conversation with Jason Hurt, Founder and Principal Consultant at Hurt Consulting, an organization dedicated to guiding faith-based nonprofits and mission-driven organizations toward sustainable impact. Jason shares his bold journey of leaving corporate America—stepping away from power, performance, and a comfortable paycheck—to follow God's call into the nonprofit world. After briefly owning a business, he quickly realized that his deeper purpose wasn't in profit margins but in people and mission. Now, he helps leaders align vision with impact and navigate real transformation. Jason shares some of the key lessons he's learned along the way: Never trade influence for impact. Surround yourself with people who aren't impressed by you. And regularly audit your calendar to make sure your time reflects your values. With the release of his new book, Climbing Down the Ladder, Jason is a voice for men looking to exchange hustle for calling, and success for significance. #ChristianBusinessman #FaithAndLeadership #PurposeDrivenLife #ClimbingDownTheLadder #JasonHurt #HurtConsulting #FromSuccessToSignificance #NonprofitLeadership #KingdomImpact #MenOfFaith #TheWayWeSeeItPodcast #FaithInAction #AuthenticLeadership #AuditYourCalendar #LeadWithPurpose #ChristianMenWhoLead Alex Bryant Ministries is focused on helping people be reconciled to God, then within one's own self, and finally being reconciled to our fellow man in order to become disciples.

http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership interview, I had the privilege of speaking with Kim Beauvais, Executive Vice President of Human Resources and Business Operations at FOX Sports, about resilience, leadership, and the importance of owning your power.Kim credits her early upbringing—where the word “can't” wasn't allowed in her household—as a foundation for her mindset. From her time as a Division I soccer player to becoming a senior executive in the male-dominated world of sports, Kim has embodied a “can do” philosophy that continues to shape her leadership.Throughout the conversation, Kim emphasized resilience not as a fixed trait but as a practice—something strengthened over time, much like building physical endurance. She shared candid insights on handling self-doubt, failing forward, and the power of surrounding yourself with a trusted circle of peers who both challenge and uplift you.Her advice resonates not only for women in media or sports but for all leaders striving to rise with confidence and clarity. She urges women to apply for opportunities even when they don't feel 100% qualified, to embrace doubt as just a feeling—not a fact—and to remember that growth happens outside of comfort zones.Above all, Kim's story is one of joy, purpose, and resilience, reminding us that we are each the CEO of our own brand and life.10 Key Takeaways from the Interview0:01:08 – Early inspiration: Kim's mother instilled the belief that “can't” was not allowed, shaping her lifelong “can do” mindset.0:04:32 – Team mantra: Her team at FOX Sports embraces the motto #CanDo, emphasizing problem-solving over roadblocks.0:06:41 – Resilience as a practice: Resilience isn't innate—it's built by repeatedly adapting, persevering, and reframing setbacks.0:08:15 – Emotions as fuel: Rather than suppressing emotions, Kim uses them as energy to propel forward.0:11:25 – Pressure perspective: High-pressure moments signal that you're right where you want to be, much like elite athletes.0:13:34 – Self-doubt is normal: Women often hesitate unless they check every box; Kim encourages taking the leap anyway.0:17:25 – Timeboxing setbacks: Allow space to feel disappointment, but set a limit—then move forward with purpose.0:19:44 – Failing forward: Failure is not final but a chance to adjust, learn, and improve.0:21:33 – Build your circle: Surround yourself with trusted peers who give honest feedback and help straighten your crown.0:25:22 – Own your brand: Remember, you are the CEO of your own life—lead with joy, purpose, and resilience.If you're interested in being featured on the Fearless Female Leadership podcast, or you're a leader looking to gain clarity on ‘what's next', how to build more cohesive and high-performing teams, and lead with greater confidence and influence, let's have a confidential conversation.Cheering you on always!– Sheryl

Send us a textWhat truly sets exceptional financial advisors apart? Is it technical knowledge, investment returns, or something deeper? In this deeply personal conversation, John Evangelista shares the journey that transformed him from a young advisor at American Express to the founder of a specialized wealth management firm serving university faculty and staff across the country.John's story isn't just about building a successful practice—it's about making the courageous decisions that defined his career. After selling the majority of his client book in 2003 and starting over with just 14 families, he discovered that clarity of purpose would become his North Star. Despite being told his idea to specialize in serving university employees was "the dumbest idea ever," John persisted, building a thriving firm now registered in 19 states with clients from Yale to USC.The most powerful revelation comes when John reflects on what he's learned after three decades in the business: "Great clients can help you create a great revenue stream, but great relationships create a great life." This philosophy has transformed how he mentors the next generation of advisors, teaching them to count relationships rather than just client numbers. The depth of these connections became painfully clear when John flew to Hawaii to say goodbye to a dying client who told him, "All I feel is love."For those facing their own challenges, John offers two transformative principles that guided his journey: "Surround yourself with the best team possible" and "Don't be a prisoner of your past." These insights helped him overcome early setbacks, including his parents' divorce and other career disappointments, to build both a successful business and a fulfilling life that includes raising bees and producing honey now sold in stores.Whether you're in financial services or any profession where relationships matter, this conversation will remind you that technical skills alone aren't enough—it's the human connection that truly changes lives. "Good financial advisors change their clients' lives, but great financial advisors change the world."Support the showhttps://bamboolab3.com/

1590. Surround Yourself with Those You Admire Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Because it gives you permission to talk about whom? So this is somebody that has the traits that you value, you have an alignment with, however you feel that they play that game at a slightly higher level. Equal or higher, right? But by talking about somebody else, you get a chance to talk about yourself. Imagine we came down here and I said, yeah, no, no, no, enough about you, let's talk more about me, right? That would run out really quickly, right?

Too many people assume maxing out a 401k is always the smartest move. But what if it isn't? In this episode, Certified Financial Planner™ David Chudyk breaks down three common financial mistakes he sees in his wealth management practice:Over-contributing to 401(k) plans without thinking about liquidity.Misunderstanding risk — either by avoiding it completely or chasing unrealistic returns.Blurring the line between business and personal finances.You'll walk away with a clearer understanding of how to align your money decisions with your real goals, avoid costly pitfalls, and grow wealth with confidence.Key TakeawaysWhy maxing out your 401k might backfire if you lack accessible funds for opportunities or emergencies.The hidden risk of “no risk” — inflation quietly erodes cash sitting in savings or CDs.The return trap — chasing sky-high growth can be just as harmful as being too conservative.Business owner warning: Stop treating your company like an ATM. Put yourself on a salary and plan for taxes, expenses, and growth.Accountability matters — isolation leads to poor decisions, but advisors, peers, or mentors can provide the guardrails you need.Timestamps00:00 – Welcome & announcements (YouTube, Instagram, Facebook links)03:12 – The first big mistake: over-contributing to 401ks12:10 – Liquidity, taxes, and why other buckets of money matter18:44 – Risk vs. rate of return: why both extremes can be dangerous28:55 – How risk tolerance shifts as you age37:22 – Business owners and the danger of mixing business/personal money47:10 – Free tools and resources you can use right now51:05 – Bonus thought: why financial isolation leads to bad decisionsFree Tools & Resources Mentioned10-Minute Vision Call → weeklywealthpodcast.com/visionDebt Snowball Calculator → weeklywealthpodcast.com/debtBusiness Value Builder Score → weeklywealthpodcast.com/valuebuilderscorePreScore (Readiness to Exit) → weeklywealthpodcast.com/precoreFreedom Score → weeklywealthpodcast.com/freedomsCoreBonus Thought

Click here now to access the tool > ‍ Rethinking Growth: How to Scale Without Sacrifice Have you ever considered scaling to seven figures and thought: ‘I couldn't do that,' or ‘That would cost me too much?'  ‍ More hours. More stress. More sacrifice. ‍ It's this belief that keeps so many women playing small. They remain convinced that bigger growth must come at the expense of their freedom, their family, or their wellbeing. ‍ But Fabienne Fredrickson, founder of Boldheart and author of The Leveraged Business believes differently.  ‍ In this episode of The Brilliant Business Book Festival, she shares how female entrepreneurs can move from six to seven figures with ease — not by working harder, but by leveraging smarter. ‍ This episode is a must-listen if you've ever dreamed of expanding your business, but worried it would mean losing yourself in the process. ‍ ‍ Prefer to WATCH? ‍https://www.youtube.com/@melittacampbell  ‍ “To grow, you don't need to work more — you need to work less, and leverage more.” – Fabienne Fredrickson ‍ The Feminine Way to Scale When Fabienne first left corporate, she quickly realised that the typical “success formulas” didn't fit. The traditional models — hustle harder, outwork the competition, close sales with rigid scripts — felt heavy, masculine, and misaligned. ‍ And yet, she also knew that ignoring growth wasn't an option. So she chose a different path. ‍ Instead of chasing every tactic, Fabienne focused on what truly worked, cutting away the 80% that drained time and energy. Over time, she developed a distinctly feminine way of scaling — one that honours rest, values alignment, and creates space for life outside of business. ‍‍ The Eight Leverage Activators for Sustainable Growth Her book outlines eight “activators” that, like switches in a dark room, bring clarity and momentum as you flip them on. These are:  ‍ 1. Leverage Your Team – Build and trust a team that takes work off your plate so you can focus on growth rather than doing everything yourself. 2. Leverage Your Systems – Put in place documented processes so the business can run smoothly even when you're not directly involved. 3. Leverage Your Time – Be strategic about how you spend your hours, limiting low-value work and protecting time for high-impact tasks. 4. Leverage Your Business Model – Shift from doing everything yourself to one-to-many models or other scalable designs so revenue isn't tightly tied to your hours. 5. Leverage Your Marketing – Build omnipresent, automated or semi-automated marketing so leads come without you personally doing every outreach. 6. Leverage Your Accountability – Create external structures or supports (mentors, peers, boards etc.) that help keep you on track and responsible for progress. 7. Leverage Your Differentiation – Clarify what makes you unique and position that strongly so you attract clients who value you, not just any client. 8. Leverage Your Lifestyle – Design your business around the life you want rather than letting business demands dictate your personal time. The common lesson between these activators is that sustainable growth happens when you work less, but smarter, and when you trust others (and yourself) to hold more. ‍ ‍ “Scaling is not about hustle; it's about shifting your identity to receive more with ease.” – Fabienne Fredrickson ‍ ‍ Mindset Before Strategy Fabienne highlighted that that business growth begins with identity, not tactics. The mindset that carries you to six figures will not take you to seven. To step into that next level, you need to: Believe it's possible for you, not just for others. Strengthen your capacity to receive more. Let go of hyper-independence and embrace support. And the fastest way to build that belief? Surround yourself with women who've already done it. Evidence and community reshape what you see as possible — and allow you to claim more for yourself. ‍ Redefining Ambition Scaling doesn't mean sacrificing. It means designing a business that sustains you instead of drains you. A business where evenings and weekends are yours. A business where freedom and growth go hand in hand. As Fabienne reminds us, when you leverage wisely and shift your mindset, expansion can feel natural, aligned, and deeply nourishing. If you've ever secretly thought, “I'd love to reach seven figures, but not at the cost of my life,” in this episode, Fabienne shows you a different way forward. A Final Thought to Reflect On Scaling isn't about chasing more — it's about choosing differently. The moment you stop trying to do everything and start focusing on the few things that truly move the needle, your business (and your life) begin to expand. So, instead of asking “How much harder do I need to work?” try asking “How much more can I allow?” Because the future you're dreaming of doesn't require more sacrifice. It requires more space, more trust, and more you. ‍ ‍ Want to explore what this could look like for you? ‍Learn more about the ways you can work with Melitta Campbell to uncover your Value Sweet Spot to market, sell and grow your business confidently, and always on your terms.

The meanest people are often the weakest. Meanness is a mask for insecurity, not a sign of strength. Today we explore why people act this way, give real examples of strength through goodness, and practical tools so you can stay above the fray. [00:45] Meanness comes from fear, envy, and insecurity. It's a way to avoid facing your own shortcomings. Tearing others down doesn't build you up. [2:30] Nelson Mandela chose forgiveness over revenge. Mahatma Gandhi led with nonviolence and respect. Martin Luther King Jr. preached love in the face of hate. They showed moral strength can topple physical might. [5:00] Steve Hansen didn't tolerate ego on the All Blacks. Michael Jordan lifted teammates up; he didn't tear them down. Your success isn't limited by others' wins. Celebrate them instead of comparing. [7:15] Check your reactions when someone shares big goals. Surround yourself with believers, not doubters. Celebrate others' wins out loud. Stay focused on your own path. Practice daily gratitude. It's hard to be mean when you're thankful. Don't let weakness or meanness define you. Have the strength to believe in goodness. Listen now to learn how.

​​Ultramarathon runner Don Reichelt opens up about how running has shaped his mindset, resilience, and sense of purpose.    Joining Dr. Andrew Fix, Don shares what it takes to move from the back of the pack to world records and a spot on Team USA at the 24-hour World Championships. What keeps someone going when the race lasts an entire day? How do you stay connected to the joy that first pulled you into the sport when training gets hard? Don reflects on the importance of surrounding yourself with the right team, using setbacks as teachers, and remembering your “why” when motivation fades. From mountain trails to flat looped courses, he shows how ultramarathon running is as much about mental strength as it is about physical endurance, offering lessons that reach far beyond the miles.   Quotes “I think the most important thing that I've learned and that I have implemented is that it's okay not to have all the answers and to surround yourself with a team that does potentially have the answers.” (16:54 | Don Reichelt) “I simply wanted to be outside. And those are the things that you cannot forget. The more you get into the sport and it's any sport or any activity is just remember that the first run you did and how probably terrible you were and how rewarding it felt to get done with that workout.” (19:42 | Don Reichelt) “It's okay not to have all the answers. Surround yourself with a team, and also just remember where you came from, remember the passion and the joy and your why.”  (20:03 | Don Reichelt) “I would rather never win another race than not to be able to walk and run when I'm 80.” (27:00 | Don Reichelt) “I'm deeply, deeply motivated on the idea of not being like old man Don and looking back and saying, what would have happened if I tried to do this? What would have happened? Or what could I have been capable of if I pushed myself in this area or this?” (44:30 | Don Reichelt) “There is going to be a positive takeaway from failure. And maybe it's a, ‘Oh, I approached it the wrong way,' or, ‘Oh, I wasn't as prepared as I thought, so I needed to do X, Y, and Z.' There should be some action item takeaway from failure.” (51:25 | Don Reichelt)   Connect with Don Reichelt: Follow Don on Instagram  From Novice to Ultrarunning Champion with Don Reichelt | The Code Podcast  2025 IAU 24 Hour World Championship | USA Track & Field   SideKick Tool   Movemate: Award-Winning Active Standing Board 15% off Promo Code: DRA15   RAD Roller   Revogreen   HYDRAGUN    Athletic Brewing 20% off: ANDREWF20   Connect with Physio Room: Website Instagram Facebook Andrew's Personal Instagram Andrew's Personal Facebook     Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

McKay explores the pervasive lies that shape our lives, from media misinformation to self-deception in this latest instalment of the Open Your Eyes podcast. Throughout the episode, he argues that, in an age of rampant falsehoods, developing critical thinking is essential for personal growth and success.To illustrate this, our host dissects such viral hoaxes as a fake Disney World policy change and a deceptive TikTok diet scam, showing how easily falsehoods spread. McKay also examines the profound gap between public perception and the reality of declining crime rates, revealing how political narratives can create powerful, albeit false, beliefs. Finally, he shares the inspirational journey of ballerina Misty Copeland, whose success came from rejecting the lies of her difficult circumstances and embracing the truth of her potential. Join McKay today and learn how biases and emotional responses make us vulnerable as he shares his guide to challenging limiting beliefs and seeking empowering truths. Main Themes:Misinformation in media guides our behavior.False perceptions directly influence our actions.Emotions and cognitive biases make us vulnerable to lies.Critical thinking is essential for discerning truth.The lies we tell ourselves are the most damaging.Surround yourself with truthful, supportive people.Facing the truth frees you to change and grow.Replace false narratives with empowering truths.We project our views, creating a false consensus.Faith and positive inputs are stable sources of truth.Top 10 Quotes:"With so much mistrust and confusion in the news today, how many lies do we believe?""We end up taking action or not taking action based on those misperceptions that we hold.""Some of the most dangerous lies we encounter are the ones we tell ourselves.""Proximity is power.""The people you spend time with will affect your dreams, mindset, and motivation.""People who really love you don't rejoice or focus on your wrongdoing, but they rejoice in the truth that you can be someone better.""The truth will set us free.""Recognize that the news sources we feed our mind will alter our beliefs and actions.""When you're surrounded by people who encourage and uplift you, believing in yourself becomes easier.""If we're going to walk with God, we need to be in agreement with Him, learning to think as He thinks with the truth."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana speaks with Sarah Stahl—marketing veteran, tourism leader, and entrepreneur—about the mental resilience required to take big risks and create meaningful change. Sarah shares her journey from a secure role as a DMO director to scaling a rural treehouse glamping resort from $200K to nearly $1M, and eventually launching her own business helping vacation rental owners build independent brands. This candid conversation dives deep into reframing fear, recognizing when security is a mirage, and learning to trust your gut. Sarah also shares practical mindset tools, including the life-changing principles from The Four Agreements, and how to navigate the uncertainty that comes with leaving comfort zones behind. Whether you're contemplating a career leap or facing a personal turning point, this episode will equip you with actionable insights to move forward with courage and clarity. *Note from the host - "In the beginning, I mistakenly mentioned that we need to be forearmed before forewarned. It should be forewarned is forearmed" About the Guest   Sarah Stahl is an entrepreneur, brand strategist, and former tourism director who has helped businesses—from local glamping resorts to vacation rental owners—grow with independence and sustainability. After 15 years in marketing and 7 years in tourism, she now focuses on empowering owners to thrive without third-party dependence. Her approach blends marketing expertise, life experience, and intuitive decision-making. Key Takeaways   True risk-taking is less about having a perfect plan and more about cultivating trust in yourself. Leaving a secure role can feel terrifying, but it can also unlock your greatest potential. Imposter syndrome is often the voice asking, “What if I fail?”—challenge it by taking action anyway. The Four Agreements—be impeccable with your word, don't take things personally, don't make assumptions, and always do your best—are powerful mindset tools for resilience. Security in business or employment is often a mirage; real security comes from self-trust and adaptability. Surround yourself with a diverse community to expand perspective and practice empathy. Your energy—whether confident or fearful—shows up in your communication and relationships. Progress often comes from small, consistent steps rather than giant leaps.

“Surround yourself with people you admire.” In this episode of Recording Studio Rockstars, I had the pleasure of talking with Brendan Duffey, a multi-Grammy-nominated mix and mastering engineer with nearly 30 years of experience. Brendan has worked with legends like Kendrick Lamar, Sheryl Crow, Milton Nascimento, and Bruce Dickinson—best known as the iconic lead singer of Iron Maiden and a legendary solo artist in his own right. Brendan brings a deep understanding of both the technical and emotional sides of music production. We talked about everything from his early days teaching audio engineering—where he learned how to explain complex concepts in simple ways—to his approach to mixing and mastering across different genres. Brendan shared what it was like to remix and master much of Bruce Dickinson's solo catalog, how he thinks about low-end in hip-hop, and why sometimes a mistake in the studio can lead to your most exciting creative breakthrough. He also opened up about how vocal production has changed over the years, moving from an auditory process to a more visual one, and why he believes simplicity, emotional connection, and knowing your tools inside and out are what really make a mix come alive. Brendan reminded me that mixing isn't just about the gear or the plugins—it's about bringing out the best in the performance and creating something that moves people. This was a killer episode with tons of great insight, whether you're just starting out or deep in your career.

In today's episode, Chad Rosen, Founder and CEO of Victory Hemp Foods, shared how his company is revolutionizing agriculture and nutrition while supporting farmers and sustainable practices.Chad started Victory Hemp Foods in 2014, inspired by the legalization of industrial hemp and its potential to solve critical problems in the food industry. “Farmers needed a manufacturer who could bring their products to market,” Chad explained. His company processes hemp seeds to create nutrient-dense ingredients like protein powder and oil that are used by global food brands in everything from protein bars to beverages.The secret to Victory Hemp Foods' success lies in its patented process. “We separate the oil and protein into two fractions,” Chad said. This innovation produces a clean, lightly flavored protein powder rich in essential amino acids and a heart-healthy oil with the ideal omega-6 to omega-3 ratio. By valorizing all parts of the hemp seed, including turning the hulls into sweeteners, Victory Hemp Foods creates a sustainable, profitable model that benefits farmers and consumers alike.Hemp's environmental benefits are equally compelling. It promotes biodiversity, breaks pest and weed cycles, and can grow with less water compared to many other crops. Chad emphasized its potential: “Hemp can be a 20-million-acre crop,” he said, noting its ability to transform both farming and food production.Victory Hemp Foods is scaling its operations to meet growing demand. The company is currently raising capital through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder, allowing community members to invest in its mission. “This is a vote of confidence,” Chad said, encouraging supporters to back regenerative agriculture and healthy food systems.Hemp is more than a niche ingredient; it's a key to a healthier, more sustainable future. Victory Hemp Foods is leading the way—and you can be part of it.tl;dr:Chad Rosen shared how Victory Hemp Foods creates sustainable, nutrient-dense products from North American hemp.The company's patented process transforms hemp seeds into protein powder, oil, and sweeteners.Hemp farming supports biodiversity, reduces environmental impact, and offers economic opportunities for farmers.Victory Hemp Foods is raising capital on WeFunder, inviting community investment in its mission.Chad emphasized his superpower, grit, as the key to overcoming challenges and driving innovation.How to Develop Grit As a SuperpowerChad identified his superpower as grit—the ability to persevere through challenges without giving up. “The ability to look at a letdown and turn it around…keeps you grinding,” he explained. Over more than a decade, Chad's persistence has allowed him to overcome obstacles, adapt to setbacks, and lead Victory Hemp Foods to success. He emphasized that grit is essential for entrepreneurs navigating uncertain paths.Illustrative Story:Three years ago, Chad faced a major setback when a potential investor backed out after six months of due diligence, citing concerns about the company's technology. This left Victory Hemp Foods without funding or a clear path forward. Instead of giving up, Chad and his team reimagined their process, developing a more efficient and profitable solution. The unexpected challenge forced them to create a breakthrough that became the foundation of their current success.Tips for Developing Grit:View setbacks as opportunities to learn and grow.Believe that every disappointment is a blessing in disguise.Stay focused on solving problems instead of dwelling on challenges.Surround yourself with a team of talented, supportive individuals.By following Chad's example and advice, you can make grit a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileChad Rosen (he/him):Founder & CEO, Victory Hemp FoodsAbout Victory Hemp Foods: At Victory Hemp Foods, we cold press North Americas freshest hemp hearts into nutritionally dense protein and oil.

In this episode of the Modern Man Podcast, host Ted Phaeton welcomes Sergio Loaiza, founder of Protect Your Legacy, a financial education firm. They discuss the importance of financial sovereignty, the concept of infinite banking, and how to build a legacy for future generations. Sergio shares his personal journey, the significance of surrounding oneself with the right people, and the mindset needed for financial success. The conversation emphasizes the need for financial education and the impact of personal experiences on one's perspective on life and finances. Takeaways The system isn't broken; we just don't know the rules. Protecting your legacy starts with protecting it now. Surround yourself with good-quality people. The quality of your life is determined by the quality of questions you ask. Money is like air; when you have it, you don't think about it. You can choose to believe in the principles or not. If you pay cash, that cash is gone forever. You can become your banker. Life is easier when you have your finances under control. You have to be so confident in who you are.
