In this powerful episode of What Are You Made Of?, host Mike "C-Roc" sits down with relationship coach Monica Tanner for an honest, insightful, and surprisingly fun conversation about what really makes a marriage last. Monica, an RLT-trained coach and host of the Secrets of Happily Ever After, shares how her parents' divorce at age 12 shaped her life's mission: lowering the divorce rate and helping couples move from resentment and “roommate syndrome” back to real connection.With vulnerability and humor, Monica opens up about her own abandonment fears, anxious attachment patterns, and the years of intentional trust-building that strengthened her 23-year marriage. She and Mike "C-Roc" dive into the realities of communication differences between men and women, why “don't sweat the small stuff” might actually be terrible advice, and how unspoken frustrations about things as small as toilet paper rolls and light switches can quietly erode intimacy over time.Monica also unpacks insights from her Amazon best-selling book, Bad Marriage Advice, challenging common myths that keep couples stuck in cycles of resentment. Instead of avoiding conflict, she explains why skillfully addressing small issues early creates safety, respect, and deeper emotional connection. From overcoming insecurity and jealousy to building secure attachment and lasting trust, this episode is packed with practical strategies couples can apply immediately.If you've ever wondered whether “happily ever after” is still possible in the real world, Monica Tanner makes a compelling case that it absolutely is—but only when couples choose intentional communication, commitment, and compassion.ebsite-https://monicatanner.com Social Media Links/Handles:https://www.instagram.com/monitalksmarriagehttps://www.youtube.com/@secretsofhappilyeverafter

This episode drops on March 3, the day of a total lunar eclipse, often called a Blood Moon. During a total lunar eclipse, the Moon passes fully into Earth's shadow, sometimes appearing deep red. These eclipses are powerful turning points—moments of revelation, release, and emotional reckoning.And today's crystal, black kyanite, is the perfect ally.Black kyanite doesn't soften energy. It clears it. It sweeps it. It realigns it.
When Heritage Foundation officials unveiled Project 2025 in April 2023, they presented what they called a comprehensive roadmap for restructuring American government. What emerged was a 920-page blueprint called Mandate for Leadership that has since become one of the most consequential policy agendas in modern political history.At its core, Project 2025 seeks to consolidate executive power by placing the entire federal government's executive branch under direct presidential control. This represents a dramatic expansion of presidential authority based on what critics call an expansive interpretation of unitary executive theory. The project explicitly calls for eliminating the independence of agencies like the Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Federal Trade Commission.The scope of proposed changes is staggering. The Heritage Foundation's blueprint recommends dismantling entire agencies including the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Education. It proposes abolishing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which has returned 21 billion dollars to consumers harmed by bank fraud, and eliminating the Federal Trade Commission, responsible for enforcing antitrust laws. The project also targets the National Labor Relations Board, which protects workers' organizing rights.Beyond eliminating agencies, Project 2025 envisions radical workforce reductions. The document calls for replacing federal civil service workers with people loyal to what it describes as the next conservative president. It explicitly recommends dismissing all Department of State employees in leadership roles before January 20, 2025, and replacing them with ideologically vetted appointees who don't require Senate confirmation.The Trump administration's implementation since taking office in January has exceeded even these ambitious proposals. According to the Center for Progressive Reform, the administration has initiated or fulfilled more than 47 percent of Project 2025's domestic regulatory agenda. Government efficiency officials under Elon Musk have laid off or plan to lay off over 280,000 federal workers across 27 agencies. The Health and Human Services Department alone announced plans to cut 20,000 positions representing 25 percent of the agency.Policy changes target vulnerable populations with particular intensity. Project 2025 proposes slashing Medicaid funding through caps, work requirements, and converting the program into vouchers. It recommends narrowing the Department of Agriculture's role and increasing work requirements for food assistance recipients.The project's vision extends to law enforcement and civil rights. It characterizes the Department of Justice as a bloated bureaucracy infatuated with a radical liberal agenda and calls for making both the FBI and DOJ more directly accountable to the president while expanding death penalty eligibility.Courts have begun challenging implementation, with judges reinstating employees at USAID, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and Voice of America after mass firings. These legal battles will define whether Project 2025's vision becomes law or faces constitutional limits on executive power.Thank you for tuning in today.

What Curling Can Teach Us About Agile - Mike CohnWith the Olympics underway, I've been watching a few events I don't normally pay much attention to—like curling.At first glance, curling looks almost comically simple. Someone slides a stone down the ice. A couple of teammates run alongside it frantically sweeping the ice with brooms. The stone glides… and somehow ends up exactly where they want it.But the more you watch, the more you realize curling isn't about making a perfect throw.It's about making adjustments after the throw.And that's what makes it a great analogy for agile.For a long time, traditional software development treated projects as if teams only had one chance to get everything right. The goal was to write the requirements document, create the design, then implement everything exactly according to plan. If you did enough planning up front, the thinking went, you could get it right the first time.The problem is that software development rarely works that way.Even if you have smart people and a solid plan, you're still operating on uncertain “ice.” Customers don't always know what they need until they see it. Stakeholders often describe what they want in ways that are incomplete, or ambiguous, or shaped by assumptions that turn out to be wrong. And developers—no matter how experienced—can misunderstand what they hear.That's not incompetence. That's just reality. Communication has friction. Uncertainty is built in.In curling, the team knows that too. They can't control the ice. They can't assume the stone will behave exactly the same way every time. Conditions vary. The surface isn't perfectly predictable. If the players just stood there and watched the stone slide, hoping it ends up in the bullseye, they'd lose most of their matches.So instead, they sweep.Sweeping doesn't completely change the outcome. It doesn't teleport the stone to the target. But it nudges the stone's speed and direction. It helps the team adjust to what's happening in real time.That's what agile does for software development.The plan is like the initial throw. It matters. You need to aim. Once the stone is moving, you don't get to stop everything and start over—you can only respond. But agile recognizes that aiming once isn't enough.The best teams don't aim once—they keep aiming.They build something small, show it, listen, learn, and adjust. They use feedback to steer the product toward what users truly need—not just what they said they needed, but what they meant. The known needs and the unstated ones.In other words, agile isn't about getting everything right up front.It's about staying close enough to reality to make course corrections while they're still cheap.One of the biggest mindset shifts agile asks of us is to stop treating change as failure. In the old model, change meant the plan was wrong. It meant rework. It meant someone made a mistake.But in agile, change is often a sign that learning is happening.Curling teams don't apologize for sweeping. They don't view it as an admission that the throw was bad. Sweeping is part of the game. It's what turns a decent throw into a great result.Agile teams do the same thing. They don't just launch work and hope it glides perfectly to the finish line. They inspect, adapt, and steer as they go.That's how you succeed with agile.And in the meantime, enjoy the Olympics.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

Not far beyond Dublin's busy streets lies a landscape of forest trails, heather-covered hills, and stories that stretch back thousands of years. The Dublin Mountains are closer than most visitors realize – and packed with history, mythology, and unforgettable views. trail in the Dublin Mountainsphoto courtesy of Ben Shorten, My Bike or Hike; used with permission This article is based on podcast episode 327 featuring Ben Shorten, owner of My Bike of Hike, guided tours around the Dublin area delivered in a sustainable way. Use the player below to listen or scroll to continue reading the article and get resource links. Dublin Mountains: An Easy City Escape with Ancient Stories The Dublin Mountains form the northern edge of a granite mountain range that stretches nearly 90 miles through Leinster. While they're often overshadowed by their Wicklow neighbors, this is where the range actually begins – right in South County Dublin. The rounded granite hills make for accessible hill walking rather than extreme hiking. Trails are generally approachable for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness, making this a fantastic half-day or full-day addition to a Dublin itinerary. From many vantage points you'll enjoy: Sweeping views over Dublin City and the suburbs Panoramas across Dublin Bay and the Irish Sea Scenic outlooks into the Wicklow Mountains Forest walks and open heathland On a clear day, the views alone are worth the trip. Getting to the Dublin Mountains Without a Car Yes, you can reach the Dublin Mountains by public transport. Several bus routes connect the city and suburbs to trailheads and nearby villages. Services aren't always as frequent as visitors might hope, but options are steadily improving. With a little planning (and a quick online search), it's entirely possible to spend the day hill walking without renting a car. That accessibility makes the Dublin Mountains one of the easiest outdoor escapes from the capital. Prehistoric Tombs Older Than the Pyramids Here's where things get fascinating. On many of the Dublin Mountains' summits, you'll find prehistoric megalithic burial tombs, many of which predate the Egyptian pyramids and even Stonehenge. There's often little signage. No grand visitor center. Sometimes just a mound of stones quietly resting at the top of a hill. But these sites may be 5,000 years old. Fairy Castle cairnphoto courtesy of Ben Shorten, My Bike or Hike; used with permission One notable example sits atop a mountain commonly called Fairy Castle (also known historically by several names, including from the Irish language). The mound is believed to be an ancient tomb—possibly a passage tomb—yet it has never been excavated. What lies beneath remains a mystery. That sense of standing somewhere sacred and ancient, largely undisturbed, is powerful. You're quite literally walking where people walked thousands of years ago. Where Mythology, History & Archaeology Meet In the Dublin Mountains, it's common for prehistory, documented history, and Irish mythology to overlap. Mountains like Seefin and Seefingan (names derived from Irish) are linked to legends of Fionn Mac Cumhaill and the Fianna. According to mythology, these were hunting grounds and even “seats” of the great warrior himself. Climb the hill and you may find: A prehistoric tomb A mythological story tied to the summit Historical records from later centuries Few places weave together so many layers of story in one location. Hellfire Clubphoto courtesy of Ben Shorten, My Bike or Hike; used with permission The Hellfire Club on Montpelier Hill If there's one Dublin Mountains site many visitors have heard of, it's the Hellfire Club. Perched on Montpelier Hill, the remains of an 18th-century hunting lodge overlook the city with spectacular views. The lodge was built in 1725 by William Conolly, once one of the wealthiest men in Ireland. Local lore says that stones from a prehistoric tomb were used in its construction. Soon after it was built, legends claim the roof blew off – a punishment, some said, for disturbing ancient ground. Later, the building was associated with the notorious Hellfire Club, a group of aristocrats rumored to have hosted wild and possibly sinister gatherings there. While hard evidence is limited, the stories have endured for centuries. Today, visitors can walk up Montpelier Hill, explore the structure, and imagine the layers of history – prehistoric ritual site, 18th-century hunting lodge, and legendary meeting place. It's atmospheric, dramatic, and one of the best viewpoints near Dublin. Exploring the Dublin Mountains with a Local Guide Ben Shorten, owner of My Bike or Hike, offers guided experiences throughout Dublin – city, coast, countryside, and mountains – with a strong focus on local connection and sustainability. His approach includes: Supporting small, family-run businesses Using public transport where possible Sharing deep local knowledge and storytelling Introducing visitors to lesser-known but equally rewarding locations Rather than focusing only on the most crowded attractions, his tours highlight places that are just as meaningful – often with far fewer people. Tours can be booked directly through the website, and custom experiences are available upon request. The Dublin Mountains hikes are open to visitors and suitable for a wide range of fitness levels. Follow the adventures on Facebook and Instagram. 3 Places to Visit in the Dublin Mountains If you're heading into the hills, here are three locally loved spots worth adding to your plans: Hazel House (A Place to Eat)A cozy, family-run café tucked into the Dublin Mountains. Hazel House is known for rustic meals and produce grown in their own polytunnels.After a hill walk, there's nothing better than a hearty lunch made with local ingredients. Sophie's Sauna in Glenasmole (A Place to Enjoy)A newly opened hot-and-cold sauna experience hidden in the Glenasmole Valley. It's quickly become a favorite for those looking to relax after a hike – or simply soak in the mountain surroundings in a different way.Bonus: Sophie, the sheep (who thinks she's a dog), might greet you. Ollie's Honey Farm (A Place to Learn)Visit a local beekeeper producing award-winning honey from hives throughout the Dublin Mountains.Tours allow visitors to learn about beekeeping, taste truly local honey, and even suit up and see the hives up close. It's a hands-on way to connect with the landscape – through its flowers, bees, and flavors. The Dublin Mountains may sit just outside the city, but they feel a world away. Whether you're chasing panoramic views, ancient tombs, mythological tales, or a bowl of homemade soup after a hill walk, this landscape delivers. And once you stand on a summit overlooking Dublin Bay, it's hard to believe more people don't add it to their itinerary.

Now that the Supreme Court shutdown President Trumps tariffs, what's next and will we get a refund?
In a landmark decision, the Supreme Court struck down President Trump’s broad use of emergency powers to impose global tariffs, ruling 6–3 that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize such sweeping trade measures. The ruling invalidates many of the tariffs enacted under the 1977 law, significantly curbing presidential authority in trade policy and reshaping the landscape of U.S. economic strategy. The decision leaves open questions about potential refunds for importers who paid billions under the now‑voided tariffs.

Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Nevada Matthews of Cube Home Loans, the hardest thing in growing a small business is getting the balance right between having enough resources and capacity to support growth while also managing cash flow. He explains that you want extra team support to maintain great customer service, but paying for those resources at the right time is the real challenge. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Nevada Matthews said his favorite business book that has helped him the most is "The E-Myth Revisited" by Michael E. Gerber — because it shifted his thinking from working in the business to building systems and processes that help the business run without him. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? According to Nevada Matthews of Cube Loans, two of the best podcasts he recommends for growing a small business are Grow A Small Business Podcast and My First Million, as they provide practical insights and real entrepreneurial lessons. He also shares that most of his professional development comes from consistently listening to business podcasts and reading books that help improve strategy, systems, and leadership. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Nevada Matthews recommends tools that help small business owners systemize, manage leads, and improve communication — the kind that take work off your plate so you can focus on growth. One tool he highlights is HubSpot CRM, because it's easy to use, helps you track customers and marketing in one place, and scales with your business needs. He also suggests using project management tools like Trello or Notion to keep teams aligned and workflows organized, which can be a game-changer as you grow. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? According to Nevada Matthews of Cube Loans, the advice he would give himself on day one is to enjoy the process and the stage you're in, rather than always rushing toward the next milestone. He shares that business growth can feel stressful and uncertain, but it's important to stay calm, trust that you're heading in the right direction, and appreciate the journey as much as the outcome.
