Contact Happening Now: Audience Encounters with UFOs, Sasquatch, and the Mount Adams Mystery James Gilliland hosts a panel-style edition of As You Wish Talk Radio in which Jenny Byers and multiple audience members share personal experiences involving ECETI, Mount Adams, UFO sightings, sky-watching, Bigfoot and Sasquatch encounters, spiritual discernment, direct contact, disclosure, and the importance of seeking firsthand experience rather than relying on controlled narratives. Disclosure, Discernment, and Direct Experience Gilliland opens by describing ECETI as a longstanding center for reported contact experiences and argues that authentic disclosure has been suppressed by censorship, money, competition, and controlled narratives. Byers agrees that truth should not depend on fame, influence, or institutional approval, and emphasizes that people should cultivate direct connection to Source rather than surrendering discernment to influencers, organizations, or technology. Together, they present personal experience and inner guidance as the foundation for understanding UFO and multidimensional phenomena. ECETI as an Experiential Spiritual Community Gilliland and Byers describe ECETI as a family-friendly environment where visitors can meet like-minded people, participate in sky-watches and healing circles, and openly discuss experiences that may be dismissed elsewhere. They characterize the property as a place of elevated energy, spiritual growth, emotional release, and direct contact with benevolent beings. Gilliland also discusses what he views as a broader transition between a collapsing old world and a new reality based on higher consciousness, healing, and loving detachment. Audience Reports of UFOs and Mount Adams Activity Several audience participants describe seeing large numbers of lights, craft, and orbs around Mount Adams and the ECETI property. Sean says he stopped counting after witnessing what he estimated to be hundreds of objects, while other participants describe lights emerging from the mountain, craft appearing to respond to attention, unusual formations, and sightings enhanced through night-vision equipment. Gilliland repeatedly encourages listeners to seek their own experience by watching the sky with an open mind, loving intent, and personal discernment. Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Interdimensional Encounters Audience members also recount reported Bigfoot and Sasquatch experiences, including sightings near the tree line, strong odors, heavy footsteps, branch-breaking, eyeshine, and beings that seemed to appear and disappear. Gilliland shares several of his own stories, including a close encounter with a female Bigfoot he perceived as distressed and an account of communicating through what he describes as mind-speak. The speakers portray Sasquatch as intelligent, spiritually sensitive, closely connected to nature, and sometimes associated with UFO activity. Challenging Official Narratives and Taking Ownership of Disclosure Gilliland argues that conventional institutions and some parts of the UFO community focus too heavily on threat assessment while ignoring reports of benevolent, spiritually advanced beings, healing, and transformative contact. He criticizes censorship, commercialization, jealousy, and the marginalization of witnesses who claim direct experience. His central message is that individuals should stop waiting for governments, conferences, media organizations, or public figures to provide disclosure and instead take responsibility for observing, questioning, and experiencing these phenomena for themselves. Sky-Watch Footage and the Invitation to Visit ECETI The closing field footage includes voices describing luminous circular objects, multiple flashes, orange orbs, clustered lights, and numerous objects moving above the trees. Participants insist that what they witnessed did not resemble conventional aircraft or satellites. The episode ends with an invitation to explore ECETI's podcasts, sky-watch videos, workshops, self-mastery teachings, and other resources while maintaining an open mind, a loving heart, and pure intent.

Veronique de Rugy critiques the Trump administration's shift toward "socialism on the right," evidenced by the government taking ownership stakes in private companies like Intel. Often justified by national security, these interventions mirror European state-owned enterprise models that historically burden taxpayers and distort market competition. De Rugy argues that such moves make private companies hostage to government dictates, such as labor or diversity requirements. By adopting policies championed by far-left senators like Bernie Sanders, the administration risks damaging long-term economic efficiency and creating a "state enterprise" system similar to China's.

Frank LaRosa says most financial advisors never take the time to find their industry defining goal. Frank opens by explaining what he calls a workation, time away from the office where real strategic thinking can actually happen. Stacey shares how she caught him working by the pool at five thirty in the morning on their most recent trip and Frank explains how that kind of deliberate space led him to write an entire internal operating playbook after reading eight books in eleven days. That same thinking space is where Frank landed on his industry defining goal, or IDG, a concept similar to the big hairy audacious goal from books like Scaling Up and Traction. Frank explains why a goal like this needs to feel nearly impossible and shares that his own goal is to help one out of every ten financial advisors who move firms. Frank gets personal about applying that framework to his own life, questioning whether the time and money he spends racing is helping or slowing down his progress. Stacey shifts the conversation into practice management, walking through how advisors should audit their client list by tier and why investing more time in fewer high value clients almost always outperforms spreading yourself across everyone. The episode closes with a direct challenge. Stacey lays out why so much of an advisor's success comes down to what they can actually control and Frank adds that once you know better, you cannot place the blame elsewhere. Together they push financial advisors to stop chasing the next move and start figuring out the right move for their business and their life.   Questions answered in this episode include: What is an industry defining goal and how do financial advisors find theirs? Why do financial advisors need a place to think outside their normal routine? How do you know if a personal passion is distracting you from your business goals? Should financial advisors segment their clients by tier? How do you know which clients are actually helping you reach your goals? Why is it important to filter out negative people in your life? What does it mean to make the right move instead of just the next move?   Chapters: 00:00 Introduction: Your Industry Defining Goal 02:13 Finding a Place to Think Strategically 03:34 Building an Internal Operating Playbook 09:02 What Is an Industry Defining Goal 12:48 Is Your Passion a Distraction From Your Goal 25:01 Auditing Your Clients and the People Around You 31:01 Taking Ownership and Making the Right Move 39:13 How to Reach Frank and Stacey   Learn more about Elite and our resources: - Elite Consulting Partners: https://eliteconsultingpartners.com - Elite Marketing Concepts: https://elitemarketingconcepts.com - Elite Advisor Successions: https://eliteadvisorsuccessions.com - JEDI Database Solutions: https://jedidatabasesolutions.com - Elite Wealth Management Insights Report: https://eliteconsultingpartners.com/insight-report - Listen to more: https://eliteconsultingpartners.com/podcasts/ - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/elite-consulting-partners/

What if the beliefs you've carried your entire life were never truly yours? In this profound conversation, Vanessa Soul sits down with Just J Thompson: writer, brand builder, systems thinker, founder of the House of Anasah, co-host of The BLC Pod, and author of Building Consciousness with D.E.P.T.H. to explore what happens when we stop living from inherited beliefs and start thinking for ourselves. Together they unpack religious dogma, groupthink, consciousness, identity, loneliness, rejection, authenticity, and why true transformation begins by taking ownership of your own mind—not by following another belief system. Just J also shares his practical D.E.P.T.H. Framework, a powerful system for building consciousness through daily practice rather than spiritual bypassing or blind belief. If you've ever questioned your beliefs, felt like the outsider, or sensed there was a deeper truth waiting beneath the conditioning, this conversation is for you.

You're not creative because you have an ADHD brain. You're creative because friction forced you to be. The Impulsive Thinker® tears down the myths about ADHD and Entrepreneur creativity.   In This Episode: Why friction—not your ADHD diagnosis—creates real creative skills The traps of too much and too little friction for ADHD entrepreneurs Growth mindset versus victim mindset in the face of business resistance   What You'll Take Away: Your creative drive wasn't handed to you by your brain—it was built through scars and pushback Repetition under pressure is where skills get made, not boredom-breaking Too much friction burns you out, not up Being bored isn't a flaw; it's fuel for finding new angles You, not your wiring, are responsible for what you make out of resistance   ABOUT THIS EPISODE This solo episode of The Impulsive Thinker® challenges the lie that ADHD brains are default creative machines. The Impulsive Thinker® dives into friction, growth mindset, and what really forges Entrepreneur creativity. You'll hear why standard business advice fails ADHD entrepreneurs and why workarounds became your standard. Grind, burnout, and "follow the money"—The Impulsive Thinker® breaks down how the wrong kind of friction eats your drive. If the world keeps telling you to stick to their plan, but you keep building your own—this episode is built for you. Hit play.   Email me about it at andre@theimpulsivethinker.com. Remember — ADHD failure is measured on society's measuring stick. Not yours. Your brain runs on interest, not importance. That's not a flaw. That's a different operating system. ADHD is not a deficit. It's a difference.  

Connect with Sathiya: https://www.sathiyasam.com/Jay and Sathiya both grew up in the church, and we both know what it's like when the emotional side of manhood gets either fully embraced or completely rejected. In this episode, we get into why fatherlessness, not war, addiction, or incarceration on their own, is actually the root issue behind almost every major crisis we see in families today, and why healing fathers is the only way to stop producing broken sons.We trace how the s*xual revolution of the 1960s and 70s quietly rewired an entire culture away from responsibility and toward instant gratification, and how that shift is still playing out in dating, marriage, and fatherlessness today. Jay also walks through something I think every man needs to hear: where you're at right now probably isn't your fault, but it is your responsibility to fix. He breaks down a real, practical five-step process for working through pain instead of just slapping a "blanket of forgiveness" over your whole life, including a raw personal story about processing his own divorce through journaling, and why forgiving from compassion is so much more powerful than forgiving out of pure obligation.Toward the end, we zoom out to talk about what actually changes a society: not just rules, but men rediscovering that responsibility, not happiness, is what gives life real purpose. Jay unpacks his framework for fatherhood, protect, provide, and promote, and explains what "promote" really means through the lens of discover, develop, deploy, the same process his own dad used to help him find his calling as a counselor at 13 years old. If you're a man carrying father wounds, or you're a dad trying to break a cycle before it starts, this episode gives you language and tools for both.

You've hired smart people, so why does it still feel like every question comes back to you? Mistakes keep happening, and your team waits for direction before moving forward. You're not imagining it, because this scenario is far too common among business owners who build teams but still end up carrying the emotional and operational weight of the business themselves. You hired, trained, delegated, and tried to empower your team. However, it's exhausting that everything still depends on you, especially for high-performing business owners who genuinely care about doing things well. The truth is, this isn't usually a hiring problem; it's a structural ownership problem. Your team may not be underperforming; they may simply be responding to the environment around them. Ownership is built intentionally, and only then can your business become scalable and finally give you some breathing room. In this episode, Dr. Sabrina Starling and Kaitlyn Beaver break down why good employees still struggle to take initiative, the hidden leadership and system gaps creating owner dependency, why delegation alone isn't fixing the issue, and how to build a team that leads without routing everything back to you.

In this episode, Travis and producer Eric dive into a wide-ranging conversation inspired by financial commentator Caleb Hammer's appearance on Joe Rogan. While the episode starts with an unexpectedly deep discussion about the Bring It On movie franchise, it quickly transitions into a thoughtful debate about generational wealth, housing affordability, student loans, personal responsibility, and the opportunities available to different generations. Through humor, pop culture references, and financial commentary, Travis and Eric explore how to navigate today's economic realities without falling into the trap of blame or victimhood. On this episode we talk about: Caleb Hammer's controversial comments about Boomers and financial responsibility The debate over whether older or younger generations have had greater economic advantages Housing affordability and how dramatically the real estate market has changed Why personal accountability still matters despite economic challenges How focusing on opportunities is more productive than blaming other generations Top 3 Takeaways Two things can be true at once. Economic conditions may be more difficult today, but personal responsibility and financial discipline still matter. Avoid generational blame games. Every generation faces unique challenges and opportunities, and success comes from adapting to the environment you're given. Focus on what you can control. Whether it's building skills, increasing income, or improving financial habits, progress comes from action rather than resentment. Notable Quotes "Every generation does it. Every generation worries that the next generation isn't going to figure it out." "You just have to take advantage of whatever opportunities are afforded to you." "Money only solves your money problems. But it's easier to solve the rest of your problems with money in the bank."

What if one simple shift in your language could change the direction of your life? In this episode of the Direct Selling Accelerator Podcast, I share how developing courage, confidence, and changing the way I spoke to myself changed the trajectory of my life. We dive into the power of shifting from "I will" to "I am," and why the biggest breakthroughs don't come from giant leaps, but from the small, intentional one-degree shifts we make every day. From running a half-marathon I once thought was impossible to finding the courage to write and publish my book, Show Up Anyway, I've learned that courage isn't something we're born with - it's something we build. Every time we take the next step despite fear or uncertainty, our courage grows. And as courage grows, confidence follows. Perhaps you've been carrying a big, hairy, audacious goal for a while now.. but for one reason or another you haven't fully stepped into it yet. As you listen to this episode, I hope you're encouraged, challenged, and reminded that courage isn't about having it all figured out - it's about taking the next step anyway. I’ll be talking about: ➡ [02:36] Courage Is a Choice➡ [05:24] The One-Degree Shift Principle➡ [06:45]] The Golf Ball Analogy➡ [09:24] The Power of Self-Talk➡ [10:15] The Half Marathon Story➡ [12:15] How Limiting Beliefs Are Created➡ [13:15] Taking Ownership of Your Story➡ [14:45] The Identity Shift: “I Am”➡ [16:30] Applying the One-Degree Shift➡ [17:15] Building the Self-Belief Muscle➡ [21:54] Showing Up Before You're Ready➡ [22:24] Courage Starts With a Decision➡ [23:03] Your Big Hairy Audacious Goal➡ [24:15] Let Courage Become Contagious Resources: Looking for more?

Heads up — this is Part 2 of Jamie's conversation with Jaclyn Taylor If you haven't heard Part 1 yet, go back and start there. It sets up everything we unpack today. Most healthcare teams are working hard. They're just not working together. And the patient is the one absorbing the cost. In this second half of the conversation, Jamie and Jaclyn move from the why into the how. What does it actually look like when a provider stops responding to today's schedule and starts managing an entire patient panel? How do you turn a community health worker, a pharmacist, a PT, and a social worker into one coordinated team instead of four parallel ones? And what's the difference between data that produces reports and data that produces decisions? You'll hear: Why "frequent touches" only work when they're connected — and how fragmented touches still land patients back in the hospital The quarterback model — what it actually means for a provider to own a patient's trajectory, not just their visit The shift from seeing patients to managing a population — and why most providers were never taught how Why we don't have a resource problem in healthcare — we have an orchestration opportunity How to use technology and data without drowning in either What "showing up" really means inside a system that isn't perfect yet This is the episode for anyone trying to lead change from inside a system that's still catching up.

“My team just won't take ownership.” Most owners say it as a verdict on their people. Tommy Rohrlack and Cameron Earhart push back on that diagnosis. Before you decide you hired the wrong people, or that a younger generation just doesn't care, look at the environment those people are working in. Tommy and Cameron get into what ownership means, the culture that makes it possible, the clarity that gives it somewhere to land, and the uncomfortable possibility that the owner is the bottleneck.IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:• Why “act like an owner” is the wrong thing to ask for, and what to ask for instead.• The three things a culture needs before anyone takes a risk: safety, connection, and a sense of future.• How clear expectations turn into real accountability.• What it looks like when the owner is the bottleneck — and the first move toward fixing it.DOWNLOAD THE LEADERSHIP GUIDE:‍ ‍Episode 189: Why Your Team Isn't Taking OwnershipHELP US IMPROVE THE SHOW: Take our 30 second SurveyHave a question for the show?

A salary feels safe — until you realize it's a cage. In this solo episode, host John Odermatt shares the story of being unexpectedly laid off after 16 years in corporate America and how it forced him to confront how little control he had over his own income. He introduces the "eat what you kill" mindset — the idea that income should be a direct reflection of your skill, effort, and output. John breaks down the hidden trade-offs of salaried work, including the illusion of security and the slow erosion of purchasing power through inflation. He contrasts the salary cage with the hunter mentality, where immediate market feedback replaces annual performance reviews. John argues that the greatest risk isn't going out on your own — it's never finding out what you're truly capable of. He closes with practical, low-stakes advice for salaried workers who want to test the hunter life without blowing up their financial security.

How often are you asked to upgrade and order, an experience or even a trip you already have booked? Probably quite often. And while those upgrades often come with a cost, we rarely question them once the foundation of a purchase is in place. The same is true at this stage of life. You're not starting over—you've already built years of experience, skills, and resources. But in a world that's rapidly changing with AI and new technology, it can feel like you're being asked to relearn everything. The truth is, you're not behind—you're being invited to upgrade. And today, we're going to talk about what that really looks like as you lead yourself forward with self-leadership into what's next.

Angela Finlay is a Chief Human Capital Strategist, former CHRO, educator, and author of Skill Stacking: Taking Ownership of Your Career in Changing Times. With over 30 years leading talent strategy across Fortune 150 companies and fast-growing organizations, she helps professionals and leaders rethink what it takes to build a resilient career in a rapidly shifting world. Angela also teaches Leadershipand Human Capital Management at the graduate level, including at Columbia University, where she brings real-world clarity to the future of work. Through her Skill Stacking framework, Angela equips individuals and organizations to move beyond outdated career paths and resume thinking. Instead of waiting to be developed, she challenges people to take ownership of their growth by intentionally building capabilities that create opportunity, mobility, and long-term relevance. In a world shaped by AI, disruption, and constant change, her message is clear: careers are no longer managed for you. They are built by you. Angela Finlay Vroom Vroom Veer Summary Jeff welcomes guest Angela Finlay and they laugh about the rough tech start to the session. Jeff prompts Angela to talk about what she's excited about. Angela describes her current roles: fractional and interim CHRO/HR leader for small- to mid-sized businesses, college-level teaching (including work with Columbia University and Fairleigh Dickinson), and a passion project — her book titled Skill Stacking, Taking Ownership of Your Career in Changing Times. She frames her book's premise: people don't need to “start over,” they can reconfigure and combine existing skills — an evolution rather than a revolution. Jeff and Angela briefly discuss historical job-displacement fears (Jeff mentions the example of a job to pick up horse poop) and Angela recounts a podcast episode she'd heard about the transcontinental railroad and the recurring nature of job-displacement panic in society. Jeff asks about Angela's background. Angela says she attended about seven schools by high school because her father worked in the newspaper industry and the family moved often; she learned to “reemerge” in new places. In high school she intentionally pushed herself out of her comfort zone (played field hockey on a losing team, joined activities) and learned to try uncomfortable things. Jeff shares a personal anecdote about his mother buying clothes for a freshman dance and how that changed his presentation. Angela mentions putting her son in a uniform/blazer changed his demeanor. Angela describes applying to many colleges; she unexpectedly received a full scholarship to Fairleigh Dickinson and originally intended speech pathology but switched to accounting (in part because her father was an accountant). She took a job in public accounting, found the work (manual ledger work, calculators printing on paper) tedious, and left a cubicle job after about six months. Her manager had been put in charge of HR and offered it to her — she accepted, taught herself about performance evaluations via library research, and began building HR capability despite feeling underqualified. Jeff observes that “figuring things out” is a valuable skill. Angela warns about over-reliance on instant help (Alexa) and the loss of productive struggle. They note chat AI tools are often very positive/encouraging; Jeff gives a brief anecdote of using AI to check hardware compatibility for an old computer and the AI correctly telling him “no.” Angela traces her career: roughly eight to nine years in public accounting, then head of HR at another firm, then about ten years with a Japanese conglomerate, Mitsui. She describes cultural differences at the Japanese company: relationship-building, the “ringy” process (needing consensus from many people), and the need to engage in non-work conversation before work talk. She shares a story about a code-entry error that produced multiple memos and made her feel like she was living an “Office Space” moment. Jeff and Angela discuss how office rhythms and politeness differ across cultures and organizations. Angela says later she moved to a community bank CHRO role in Brooklyn; when the bank was sold in the pandemic she reassessed and moved toward fractional/interim CHRO work and teaching — leveraging her experience going into companies during transitions. She mentions accounting-firm sales training early in her career and that she's “dangerous” at selling herself; also ties her teaching to early acting lessons and “interacting” skills. They turn to the book and the skill-stacking framework. Angela explains the idea of inventorying and intentionally categorizing one's skills instead of assuming you have no skills. She outlines categories in her stack model: Supportive skills: foundational expertise (examples she names include accounting and employment law). Tactical skills: execution skills — getting things done, project management, time/task management, resource allocation. Adaptive skills: ability to pivot, learn from feedback, take feedback constructively rather than fight it. Complementary skills: people-related abilities and emotional intelligence (EQ) — empathy, relationship-building (she gives a vivid hospital anecdote where a staffer's comforting, practical human response mattered more than clinical intervention). Knowledge-seeking: ongoing learning and curiosity, the polymath concept and making connectors among different domains. Jeff and Angela discuss AI: Angela uses AI in her work but notes it tends to be optimistic and encouraging and may not tell her when an idea is a bad one. Jeff recounts the story about AI warning him not to plug a CPU into an incompatible system. They discuss limits of AI and nuance: Angela emphasizes the human ability to read subtext, in-person dynamics, and emotional cues in organizations — things she believes AI can't replicate. Jeff and Angela also discuss image-generation tools: Angela has experimented with them, found mixed results (about “forty percent” success in her words), and recounts trying to generate an image for a white paper and getting irrelevant outputs (a “rose” instead of the intended interconnected GROWING acronym). Angela links this back to knowledge-seeking and prompting skill development. Angela says she's developing a free app that will let people upload resumes to visualize their skill stacks; she invites listeners to get on the list. She gives her contact info: the website stackingyourcareer.com, LinkedIn (Angela Finlay), and a YouTube channel called Stacking Your Career where she posts videos about the concepts. Jeff repeats the site and they discuss audiences and career planning briefly: Jeff references the FIRE movement (financial independence/retire early) as context for needing ways to make money; Angela stresses building and tracking transferrable skills so people can pivot across a long career span, mentioning the idea of a “sixty year career” and the U-shaped curve of happiness (listeners are told people burn out or are bored after many years and should plan to pivot). The interview wraps up with Jeff thanking Angela for the conversation and inviting her back. Angela agrees. Jeff jokes about “skill building” to end the recording. Tim Paige's outro thanks listeners, points them to the show notes at vvveer.com (transcribed as “v v veer dot com / triple v v double e r dot com”), and signs off. Connections Website

SummaryIn this episode, Chase and Chris break down why so many people feel stuck in their fitness journey even when they're trying really hard. They explain that most people focus on the small things that don't matter as much instead of the big habits that actually drive results.They talk about the difference between the “90%” and the “10%.” The 90% includes things like calories, protein, steps, workouts, sleep, and stress. The 10% includes things like supplements, meal timing, and tiny details that don't make a big impact.They also explain how social media, past diets, and even your environment can cause you to focus on the wrong things. This leads to overwhelm, burnout, and feeling like nothing works.The main takeaway is simple: focus on a few key habits, stay consistent for several weeks, and stop chasing every new trend.

Istrouma Baptist Church (ASC) Mar 22, 2026 ========== March 22 - Philippians Welcome! We're glad you've joined us today for our Sunday morning worship service! For more information about Istrouma, go to istrouma.org or contact us at info@istrouma.org. We glorify God by making disciples of all nations. ========== Connection Card https://istrouma.org/myinfo Taking Ownership of Your Faith Philippians 3:12-16 ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭3‬:‭12‬-‭16‬‬ Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Let those of us who are mature think this way, and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal that also to you. Only let us hold true to what we have attained. Grace saves, but ownership grows us. 1. Focus your life on Christ. Ownership begins with focus. "But one thing I do…I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus" (v.14). 2. Forget what's behind you. Ownership requires forward movement. 3. Fight to Grow Forward. Ownership requires effort. - Humbly admit you still need to grow. - Fully surrender your life to Christ. - Think rightly about spiritual maturity. - Train yourself spiritually.

Leadership isn't just about strategy—it's about people. In this episode, I'm joined by Amy Jacobson, emotional intelligence and human behavior specialist and author of The Emotional Intelligence Advantage. We talk about why emotional intelligence is often dismissed as a "soft skill," when in reality it's one of the most practical advantages leaders have, especially when navigating change and difficult conversations. Amy also introduces the idea of "change intelligence," the emotional readiness teams need before change can actually succeed.  In this conversation, we cover: Why emotional intelligence is a critical leadership skill How the rise of AI is increasing the importance of human EQ The difference between blame-based teams and ownership-driven cultures Why change often triggers a sense of loss for people What happens in the brain during difficult conversations Amy's practical "Ask, Ask, Tell" framework for leading hard conversations with clarity If you lead people, manage change, or regularly navigate high-stakes conversations at work, this episode offers practical insight you can apply immediately.   Here are the some great resources I wanted to share with you: Apply for 1:1 Coaching https://www.mollyasplin.com/subscribe molly@mollyasplin.com Follow Me on Instagram Growth Day App - 7 Day Free Trial   Connect with Amy Jacobson:  Emotional Intelligence Books  https://amyjacobson.com.au/ Connect on LinkedIn  Are you looking to improve performance and team effectiveness across your team?

New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Gerron Duhon. Purpose of the Interview The conversation aimed to: Highlight the importance of financial literacy for young adults. Share Jerron Duhon’s personal journey from Lake Charles, Louisiana, to Yale University and into holistic financial planning. Promote his book “The Purpose of Paper”, which focuses on building generational wealth and breaking harmful financial habits. Key Takeaways Personal Journey & Identity Shift Jerron used football as a “meal ticket” to escape his hometown, but a concussion ended his athletic career, causing an identity crisis. He pivoted toward financial education and wealth creation, emphasizing long-term planning. Misconceptions About Wealth Many young adults believe wealth comes quickly through gambling, sports betting, or flashy investments. Social media fuels the desire to display wealth rather than build wealth, leading to poor financial decisions. Financial Habits & Framework Jerron introduced his AIMS framework: Awareness: Know your current financial state. Intention: Set clear goals and reverse-engineer steps. Mindset Change: Focus on future self, not old habits. Systems: Automate savings and investments to reduce reliance on willpower. Faith and Finance Connection Principles like self-control, patience, and hope—fruits of the spirit—are essential for financial discipline. “Faith without works is dead” applies to money: belief must be paired with action. Generational Wealth Gerron stresses taking ownership of your financial future rather than leaving the burden to your children. Investing should be strategic and long-term, not like playing the lottery. Practical Advice Start small but consistent (e.g., $150/month). Use modern tools like Robinhood for stock investing. Shift from being a consumer to an owner (invest in companies you use). Notable Quotes “Football was my meal ticket… but I realized I didn’t dream far enough.” “We connect our financial decisions to display wealth instead of to build wealth.” “Faith without works is dead—just like in finances.” “Are you going to be the one that changes your generation, or will you leave that pressure on your children?” “Good advice is timeless.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Leading others doesn't begin with a title—it begins with self-leadership. Too many men chase influence, authority, or recognition before they've learned how to lead themselves. That's where imposter syndrome creeps in—of course you're not as good yet; leadership isn't a destination, it's a discipline. It's not just tactical execution or getting things done—it's service, responsibility, and the relentless pursuit of getting better. Leadership at home, leadership with your kids, leadership over your own habits and standards. In this episode, I talk with leadership expert, Kipp Sorensen. Today, we break down the three traps of self-leadership that quietly sabotage men: the Victim, the Persecutor, and the Rescuer, the dark side of influence, how to get your own wishes and desires met, how to be aware of "polite manipulation," and why honoring agency (yourself and others) is the key to leading well.
