You ​keep ​approaching ​the ​idea ​of ​taking ​those ​risks, ​but ​it's ​kind ​of ​torturing ​you ​because ​you ​keep ​approaching ​it, ​and ​then ​you ​keep ​hitting ​a ​wall. ​Everything ​feels ​too ​scary and ​so ​you're ​like, ​well, ​let ​me ​kind ​of ​think ​through my ​past–right? ​So ​there's ​this ​formula, ​and ​it ​feels ​like ​an ​airtight ​formula, ​and ​that's ​where ​we ​kind ​of ​get ​trapped, because if one or ​two ​of ​those ​variables ​feel ​off, you're like ‘​ooh, ​the ​risk ​of ​failure ​is ​now ​high'. That ​automatically ​shuts ​us ​down.”“Where ​do ​you ​have ​space ​to ​actually ​stop ​and ​feel? ​​You ​typically ​don't. And ​things ​are ​often ​happening ​fast. ​So ​you're ​trying ​to ​react, ​you're ​trying ​to ​think. ​You ​haven't ​gotten ​yourself ​any ​space, ​any ​room ​to ​feel ​what ​you're ​actually ​feeling. ​And ​that ​is ​what's ​keeping ​you ​trapped ​in ​that ​merry ​go ​round. ​There's ​no ​creativity ​available ​to ​you ​in that ​space because ​you're ​just ​trapped ​in ​cyclical, ​fear ​based ​thinking.”“​I ​challenge ​you, if ​you're ​sitting ​with ​this ​kind ​of ​indecision, ​this ​fear ​around ​risk ​and ​this ​story, ​ ​to ​take ​a ​moment ​and ​see ​if ​you ​can, ​​which ​I ​know ​you ​can, ​​embrace ​the ​belief ​that ​I ​am ​someone ​who ​takes ​incredible ​risk ​​and ​finds ​success. ​I ​am ​the ​great ​I ​am. ​I ​am ​someone ​​who ​takes ​incredible ​risks ​and ​finds ​great ​success. ​ ​What ​would ​it ​be ​like ​to ​embrace ​that? ​​What ​are ​your ​earliest ​memories ​where ​that ​is ​true?”“You ​cannot ​access creativity ​if ​the conditions ​that ​you ​have ​created ​for ​yourself ​to ​be ​creative ​have ​not ​been ​set.”“Sometimes ​the ​way ​that ​we ​protect ​our ​imaginations is with our ​creativity, ​right? ​That's ​where ​it ​all ​flows ​from ​by ​allowing ​what ​is ​​arising ​in ​us that ​is ​keeping ​us ​stuck…​allowing ​it ​to ​flow ​through ​us ​and ​to ​inform ​us ​about ​any ​limitations ​that ​we're ​placing ​on ​ourselves, ​​any ​lies ​that ​we're ​telling ​ourselves, ​any ​old ​stories ​that ​are ​coming ​up ​and ​distorting how ​we ​believe, ​how ​we ​believe ​we ​can ​exist ​and ​what ​we ​believe ​that ​we ​can ​have. ​That's ​another ​way ​of ​protecting ​our ​imaginations.”STAY IN TOUCHCome and follow me on Instagram @moniquershields and I would love your feedback so send an email to ambition@moniquershields.com.

My name is Marina A. Smirnova. I was born on Sakhalin Island (the Far East of Russia), and, well over twenty years ago, I made the U.S.A. my home. My journey has been enriched by earning a Bachelor degree in Music Education (Minsk State Pedagogical University, 1996), a Master of Arts degree in Counseling (Central Michigan University, 2003), and a PhD degree in Psychology, with Transpersonal Psychology Concentration (Sofia University, formerly Institute of Transpersonal Psychology, 2013). I started my teaching path at the age of 18 as a K-12 music teacher. In 2013, I began my contribution to Saybrook University. In 2016, I became an Assistant Program Director for the Department of Humanistic and Clinical Psychology; in 2017-an Interim Psychology Chair. Currently, as a core faculty member of the Department of Humanistic Psychology at Saybrook, I serve as a Full Professor of Psychology and Consciousness, Spirituality, and Integrative Health (CSIH) Specialization Director. I am a recipient of two recent Saybrook University awards: Presidential Award for Excellence (November 2021) and Exemplary Humanistic Educator Award (August 2024). My interests are deeply humanistic and transpersonal in nature. Outside of the halls of academia, I support adults' inner development by helping them to integrate fully their deeply evocative, Exceptional Human Experiences (EHEs). Such experiences often arise within and out of dreams, visions, visitations, spiritual practices, breathwork, visionary journeys, and reality-shattering UFO /ET /Alien /Non-Human Intelligences encounters. I support experiencers transpersonally in their quests for spiritual vitality, fulfillment, vibrant longevity, soulful sovereignty, wholeness, and ascension. I have a deep sense of appreciation for contemplative spirituality, mystical and esoteric traditions, and contemplative practices, and my current overarching focus is on exploring, potentiating, and integrating Exceptional Experiences (EEs) and Exceptional Human Experiences (EHEs), in general, and reality-shattering UFO /ET /Alien / Non-Human Intelligences encounters, in particular. My heart-centered art and interests include: (1) intuitive spiritual support and guidance; (2) transpersonal ways of knowing, embodiment, ascension mentoring, and spiritual consultation; (3) extreme, deeply evocative, and visionary transpersonal/holotropic states; (4) John E. Mack's transpersonal research on UFO / ET /Alien encounters and human transformation; (5) Stan Grof's expanded cartography of the psyche, holotropic states of consciousness, and GROF® Breathwork / Holotropic Breathwork®; (6) C.G. Jung's transpersonal legacy, Joe Campbell's heroic journey, and James Hillman's acorn theory; (7) psionics, remote viewing, mythology and personal mythology, dreamwork, guided imagery, clinical hypnosis, and alchemy of ascension; (8) consciousness calibration work by David R. Hawkins, (9) the biology of personal empowerment by Bruce H. Lipton; (10) Enneagram; (11) Gene Keys and Dream Arc (by Richard Rudd); (12) indigenous traditions and heart-centered spirituality; and (13) other embodied spiritual approaches that engage inner resources to optimize soulful sovereignty, fulfillment, vibrant longevity, joy, and ascension.

Podcast: Gospel TalksHosts: George Binoka & Jeff MusgraveEpisode Date: June 3, 2025Episode Summary:In this stirring episode of Gospel Talks, George Binoka and Jeff Musgrave explore the eternal significance of gospel-centered relationships. Drawing from Luke 16 and the parable of the unjust steward, they unpack Jesus' radical call to leverage our temporal resources—time, talent, and treasure—for eternal gain. The discussion centers around the idea of “forever friends,” a term George and Jeff use to describe those whom we reach with the gospel and with whom we'll share eternity.They argue that gospel relationships are not only spiritually binding but also the most enduring relationships possible—outlasting circumstances, cultures, and even death. The gospel, they contend, is the ultimate “relationship retainer,” binding people together with supernatural glue.Jeff issues a challenge from Scripture: if the world invests its resources with intensity to gain temporary returns, how much more should the sons of light pour themselves into eternal investments? They also highlight how hoarding the gospel is not merely ineffective—it's dishonest. Faithfulness to Christ involves faithfully stewarding the gospel for others.George offers personal stories of unlikely friendships forged through the gospel—relationships that defy natural compatibility but endure because they're built on eternal truth. Together, George and Jeff call listeners to take risks, invest deeply, and partner in the work of disciple-making, reminding us that the only thing we take to heaven is people.Chapter Breakdown:00:00 – The Concept of Forever FriendsIntroduction to the term “forever friends” and how the gospel preserves relationships eternally.02:54 – Eternal Friendships in ScriptureJeff unpacks the parable of the unjust steward (Luke 16) and Jesus' call to make friends for eternity.05:44 – Investing in Eternal RelationshipsComparison between worldly zeal for profit and Christian investment in souls.08:37 – Leveraging Temporal Wealth for Eternal GainWhat it means to steward time, talent, and treasure with eternity in view.11:16 – The Dishonesty of Hoarding the GospelJesus calls it dishonest to withhold the gospel from others; spiritual stewardship is a matter of truthfulness.14:30 – The Stickiness of Gospel RelationshipsOnce you've gone deep with someone spiritually, every other conversation becomes easier—gospel relationships stick.17:16 – Taking Risks for Eternal FriendshipsTrue friendship demands boldness; the gospel may threaten friendships, but it's also the only way to make them eternal.20:04 – The Transformative Power of ConversionConversion is miraculous, relational, and permanent—God turns strangers into family.22:43 – Partnership in the GospelSpiritual friendships mature into co-laboring partnerships for the kingdom.25:48 – The Value of Eternal RelationshipsNothing on earth is more valuable than souls; everything else we leave behind.27:01 – New ChapterClosing reflections and call to action: pray for laborers and consider supporting The Exchange monthly.Support the Mission:Partner with The Exchange to help multiply eternal relationships.

Many of us dream of living a luxurious life, and we tend to confine that idea to materialistic luxury, houses and cars and clothing and jewelry and travel, all the things money can buy. And yet there is another type of luxury I want to talk about with you today, and it's the luxury of living in alignment with our God-given possibility, the luxury of living a life that creates more energy than it expends, a life of feeling amazing in the love we have for ourselves, for others, and for God. This is luxury that feels like a pearl of great price, something we are willing to sacrifice our tolerable life for.

Sometimes the biggest seasons of growth come from the hardest chapters of life.In this episode, we sat down with the incredibly honest and grounded Anna Lord to talk about what it really looks like to evolve your business while navigating personal change—moving cities, processing grief, shifting priorities, starting a family… and doing it all without losing momentum.We talked about letting go of the timeline you thought you had to follow. About redefining what success looks like (and feels like). About giving yourself permission to shift—not just for the sake of your business, but for the sake of your life.And maybe most importantly, we talked about what happens when you stop trying to do it all and start building a support system that actually supports you.If you've been feeling the tension of growing your business while also being human, this conversation will remind you: you're not behind, you're just in a new chapter. And you're more capable than you think.No more fear of falling behind.No more pressure to get it perfect.No more doing it all alone.You get to evolve. You get to grow slow. You get to win on your terms.Let's talk about what that can actually look like.

This episode features an interview with Armen Najarian, CMO at Sift, an AI-powered fraud platform delivering identity trust for leading global businesses.Armen has 10 years of experience as a CMO across a variety of fraud prevention, digital identity, and cybersecurity organizations. He discusses how word of mouth and a strong brand has allowed them to become a leader in their space and also gives insight into Sift's top source for demand generation.Key Takeaways:It is riskier not to take risks. Marketers need to be willing to try something unconventional. If it fails, the world goes on. Giving your customers access to your data, if it answers important questions for them, can be a key driver of demand. Understand what your customers are curious about and what questions they are asking. If you can find a way to provide answers, the ROI will be significant. Quote:  ”Those that aren't taking risks are the ones taking risks, is the way I would look at this. Like we have to take risks -you know, it's gotten so noisy and some of the tried and true tactics like organic search, right, which is completely flipped on its head right now. Every CMO has a responsibility, anyone in marketing really, has a responsibility to really rethink the logic for what they're doing and take some risks.”Episode Timestamps: *(02:29) The Trust Tree: 10 years of CMO experience*(09:19) The Playbook: Answering your customers biggest questions*(38:24) The Dust Up: To create a category or not *(42:32) Quick Hits: Armen's quick hitsSponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

Morning Mantra: "Say Yes to risk before fear teaches you to settle."Reaching your full potential, or living the life you dream of requires facing challenges, and going out on a limb.  For example, to love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to never risk and to settle.  The place between your comfort zone and your dream is where life takes place. It might be the high anxiety zone at times, but it's also where you discover who you are, who you born to be, and the life you are meant to live.That risk you're afraid to take, could be the one that changes your entire life.  It could mean the difference between going for your dream job or settling for the one you can get.  Risk means loving yourself enough to leave a bad relationship and not going back.  Risk means trying a new sport and maybe busting your butt, or watching from the sidelines.You have to be willing enough to be brave enough to risk falling on your face, to risk failing. At least, if you fail, you're moving in a forward direction. Take risk in your life, if you succeed you can lead, if you don't, you can guide.#BeRisky #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes #HorseHippieBoutique #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned Quote: Scott Stillman

"Know your value. Don't ask for permission to take up space. Just get out there and start doing things. We have one life, and we don't get to go bac,k and we have no do-overs. It doesn't matter if people are judging you. The people that are judging you are normally sitting on their couch not doing anything, but judging you. And so if you're out there doing the thing they're judging, you're already winning." —Tara PolleyOne word is all it takes— “Yes.” When you choose "yes," you're not just agreeing to an opportunity; you're declaring war on your comfort zone and challenging the status quo of your own limitations. Each "yes" is a stepping stone to a version of yourself you've only imagined in quiet moments of potential. It's the bridge between who you are and who you're meant to become.  Saying “yes” to American Dream TV, Tara Polley transformed a moment of personal terror into a national platform for storytelling, community connection, and personal reinvention. By embracing the discomfort of being on camera, she unlocked a journey that expanded her professional horizons, allowed her to showcase local businesses and community stories, and discover a powerful voice she never knew she possessed.Tune in as Heather and Tara dive deep into the importance of going out of our comfort zone, real estate insights, social media strategies, overcoming fear, community connection, storytelling as a marketing tool, embracing authenticity, taking professional risks, and navigating life's unexpected journeys through resilience and intentional "yes" moments.Connect with Heather: WebsiteFacebook InstagramLinkedInEpisode Highlights:02:41 Meet Tara: Challenges and Growth in Real Estate 05:17 Reality TV and Its Impact on Real Estate Career 12:55 Client Relationships and Community Envolvement 16:59 Content Creation for Different Social Media Platforms  32:04 Overcoming Fear and Taking Risks to Grow36:31 The Power of Knowing Your Own ValueConnect with Tara: Tara Polley brings over 25 years of experience to the real estate industry, specializing in all facets of residential real estate, subdivision development, housing crisis counseling, and luxury properties, including wineries and bed & breakfast establishments.

Markets were close to turning a short-term buy signal into a sell signal...but...yesterday's rally saved it, and a continuation of the rally today will also provide octane for buyers (presuming nothing goes wrong). Markets have been over sold by three standard deviations, and still remain depressed against their moving averages. Markets have gone through a 61% Fibonacci retracement, which is pretty deep for any type of a market move. If markets can continue to rally, we would consider taking some more risk off the table.

Do it scared! Do it anyway! Today I reflect on the pivotal moments in my life where fear showed up loud and clear… and why that was a good thing.
