Today's topic touches on a question many struggle with: “Will God forgive me?” Thinking that the good Lord will not forgive us typically comes from an inward-focused, insecure person who needs a gospel recalibration: Who the Son has set free is free indeed (John 8:36). The gospel liberates us from all of our past sins, no matter how hideous or overwhelming they seem. Jesus has already completed the work of forgiveness—you don't have to live under the weight of guilt any longer.

Is it possible to get your entire sales team to work together and crush goals one after another? Consider all the benefits your organization would gain if this were to actually happen.To make this dream a reality, listen to my chat with Justin Balik, co-founder of Weath InsurED, in this episode. He shares three sales tactics that brought his company from half a million to three million in 90 days.Meet Justin Balik Justin has been a force in financial services since graduating from the University of Miami in 2012. He quickly rose from agent to a top 10 manager among 10,000+ peers. Now, he and his wife own a business revolutionizing IUL sales training, producing high-end agents with unparalleled speed and results in the industry. He has helped tens of thousands with insurance and retirement, specializing recently in tax minimization for high-net-worth clients.Specialize Your Sales Roles Most sales teams have reps doing everything: prospecting, appointment-setting, closing, and follow-up. Justin broke the process into specialized roles—so each person focused only on their highest-value work. This helped free up the top closers, who were freed from low-value, time-consuming tasks. The result: higher efficiency, faster pipeline movement, and more revenue. Ask yourself: where is your team doing $10/hour work instead of $10,000/hour work?Go After High-Ticket Clients Instead of focusing on high-volume, low-value sales, Justin's team intentionally shifted to larger, more valuable deals. They targeted higher-level clients who not only respected the process, but were easier to work with—and produced exponentially greater revenue per deal. Justin's advice: Identify and pursue the upper echelon of your market, and don't let assumptions about “difficulty” of big deals hold you back. The truth? Sometimes, bigger clients are actually easier.Deliver Intensive, Practical Training Justin condensed over a decade's worth of his sales knowledge into a proprietary, one-week, 40-hour training program for new reps. This training ensures each team member is truly equipped—not just motivated—with everything needed to sell at a high level. It's practical, measured, and outcome-focused.Bonus Mindset Tip Justin emphasized the importance of personal growth alongside tactical skills. Your self-image must outpace the rejection that comes with aggressive activity, or you'll burn out before you break through.“You can't succeed in sales if you're not constantly working on yourself.” Justin Balik.ResourcesGrab these books mentioned in the episode: 10x Is Easier Than 2x, Who Not How, and The Science of Scaling by Dan Sullivan & Dr. Benjamin Hardy.

When something shocking or difficult happens, we're often told we need to "process" our emotions. But what if that endless loop of replaying events in your mind isn't actually processing at all? In this episode, Drew and Josh explore the crucial difference between healthy emotional processing and anxious rumination that keeps us stuck.How to distinguish between genuine emotional processing and OCD/GAD-style ruminationWhy that "urgent" feeling to think through something repeatedly might be a red flagThe difference between being with your feelings versus chasing a particular feelingWhy real processing can't be forced or scheduled on demandHow to recognize when your mind is "hunting for problems to solve"Processing vs. Ruminating: Real processing involves experiencing emotions from multiple perspectives and naturally leads somewhere. Anxious thinking loops from a single anxious viewpoint, chasing certainty or relief that never comes.The Mirage Effect: Like chasing an oasis in the desert, compulsive thinking promises relief that always stays just out of reach.Beyond the Urgent: If thinking through something feels urgent or mandatory right now, it's likely anxiety rather than processing.Community Contributions In This Episode:Dental Victory (15:50): A listener shares how she conquered dental anxiety and gave herself full credit for the winDouble Challenge (29:15): Managing husband's travel anxiety while attending a family party - and having a panic attack but staying anywayPanic Attack Breakthrough (32:30): Learning to let panic attacks run their course instead of fleeing to safetyTimestamps02:00 - Listener question: When does processing become anxious looping?05:20 - Josh explains the mechanics of OCD triggers after shocking events09:15 - Drew on narrative therapy and finding meaning versus chasing feelings13:00 - The misuse of "doing mode" - when thinking becomes a compulsion18:30 - Why Craig the Critic might tell you to keep "processing"21:00 - Josh's personal example of organic grief processing26:10 - Signs of unprocessed emotions versus anxious rumination27:30 - Why urgency is often a sign it's anxiety, not processingTrue emotional processing happens organically and involves being with difficult feelings without trying to fix them. When "processing" feels urgent, repetitive, or like chasing relief, it's likely anxious thinking in disguise. The goal isn't to process everything immediately, but to allow natural emotional experiences while living your life.---Disordered Roundtables are here!

My guest today is a woman who listens to stone the way others listen to music, hearing the layered rhythms, ancient memory, and hidden messages beneath our feet.Dr. Marcia Bjornerud is a structural geologist, writer, and professor at Lawrence University whose work explores the physics of earthquakes, the architecture of mountains, and the deep time story of our living planet. She is the author of several beloved books for popular audiences, including Reading the Rocks, Timefulness, Geopedia, and most recently, Turning to Stone: Discovering the Subtle Wisdom of Rocks, which won the 2025 John Burroughs Medal for Natural History Writing.In today's conversation, we explore Earth as an animate, dynamic system, one that has been reinventing itself for over 4 billion years, leaving records of her great experiments in stone. We dive into Marcia's life's work of decoding that record and into her belief that rocks are not inert, they are narrators of Earth's evolving story. Marcia invites us to understand the language of stone, to foster a “geo-centric” worldview that reconnects us with the rhythms and relationships of this planet, and to step into a deeper kinship with the Earth as home.We also speak about her travels to remote parts of the world, such as Svalbard, Norway, her reflections on the Anthropocene, how thinking like a geologist can help save the world, and what she may have learned from Indigenous wisdom traditions in her dialogue with land and rock.This is a conversation about time, transformation, and the quiet, enduring truths that live in stone.Episode Highlights:02:30 – Dr. Bjornerud's early fascination with rocks from glacial deposits in Wisconsin.04:00 – Structuring her latest book Turning to Stone around autobiographical chapters, each linked to a specific rock.06:00 – Defining the term "timefulness" and how seeing in geologic time alters our perception of the present.07:30 – Rocks as palimpsests: ancient stories overwritten but still traceable.08:45 – Rocks as verbs, not nouns: dynamic participants in Earth's ongoing transformation.10:30 – Witnessing the radical evolution of geoscience: from fixed continents to dynamic tectonics and complex climate models.13:00 – Paradigm shifts: from denying catastrophes to accepting extinction events like the one that ended the dinosaurs.16:00 – Ice age floods and possible global correlations to catastrophic water events.18:00 – Reflections on flat-earthers, epistemology, and failures in science education.20:30 – Dr. Bjornerud's spiritual and emotional connection with rocks and their silent companionship.22:30 – Working in rapidly changing Arctic landscapes and observing real-time geology in motion.24:00 – The language of stone: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks as dialects.26:00 – What would change if Western culture viewed the Earth as animate rather than mechanical?29:00 – Critiquing techno-optimism and misplaced hubris in dreams of colonizing Mars.32:00 – Hidden infrastructures of rock: aquifers, basalt weathering, and climate regulation.35:00 – Collaborating with Indigenous scientists and tribal legal teams to protect ecosystems.38:00 – Thinking like a geologist: embracing humility, interconnectedness, and a long-term perspective.40:00 – Letting go of narcissism and rediscovering our place in Earth's continuum.42:00 – Why colonizing Mars is scientifically implausible and ethically evasive.45:00 – Message for the seventh generation: the Earth abides—if we listen.47:00 – Closing reflection: stone as story, Earth as ancestor, and ourselves as part of a resilient and sacred cycle of becoming.Resources mentioned:Books by Dr. Marcia BjornerudTurning to Stone – https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781324093494Timefulness: How...

This episode isn't theoretical. It's personal. Very personal. Something happened this week involving my daughter that I wouldn't wish on anyone. It shook me. And yet, I found myself confronted by the very thing I teach: emotional regulation, critical thinking, and behavioural intelligence, not in a classroom, but in real life, where it counts. Everyone expected rage. Violence. Retaliation. And I'll be honest, those thoughts were there. But instead of reacting, I chose to think. Not because I'm above anger, but because I'm committed to protecting the people I love with clarity, not chaos. In this episode, we get int into the mindset it took to navigate that fire. We'll explore the neuroscience of emotional control, the cost of binary thinking, and how to use Holmesian principles when your instincts are screaming for blood. This isn't about being clever. It's about being clear-headed when it matters most. And it's a reminder that thinking like Sherlock Holmes isn't just an intellectual exercise, it's a survival skill. Let's get into it.

Today I'm talking about one of the worst habits people have—saying “I'm thinking about it.” Most of the time, we're not actually thinking. We're just stalling and making excuses for not taking action. The truth is, you don't have time to waste like that. Every day you're getting older, and you don't get those days back. In this episode, I'm giving you the fix so you can stop hiding behind that phrase and start doing what you said you would. Show Notes:  [02:22]#1 Put a limit on your thinking time. [07:21]#2 Say No and Move On [15:34]#3 Adding time to situations is akin to committing suicide because you only have a certain amount of life remaining.  [19:27]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 196: Hell Yeah!!!

What if everything you've been told about overcoming your struggles is backwards? What if the very act of fighting your anxiety, depression, addiction, or trauma is actually making it worse?In this powerful episode, Duane and Eric dive into one of the most revolutionary concepts in recovery and mental health: creative hopelessness. This isn't about giving up on your life or your future. It's about giving up on something that's been sabotaging you all along - the belief that you need to control how you feel to have a good life.If you've tried therapy after therapy, read every self-help book, downloaded every meditation app, and still find yourself stuck in the same painful cycles, this episode is for you. You'll discover why your best efforts to feel better might be keeping you trapped, and learn a radically different approach that could change everything.Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Duane and Eric explore the "DOTS" framework - the four main ways we try to control our internal experiences (Distraction, Opting out, Thinking, and Substances/self-harm). They'll walk you through the five steps of creative hopelessness and show you how to shift from an exhausting control agenda to a liberating acceptance agenda.This isn't about becoming passive or giving up hope.

Let's get back in touch with a favorite guests from past episodes, friend of the podcast Cassandra Koenig, formerly Cassandra Michel, founder of the amicable family law and divorce firm Aloha Divorce. It's been a few years since we talked, and the firm is thriving (so is Koenig). How did she fare in the past four years, building her own family and a law practice? Hear how she's built a practice and supplemented her client work with contracted, side jobs to fill in slow spots. It's all part of running a true solo practice. Hear how Koenig new from the start she wanted to run a solo practice and stayed true to her aims, all without burning out. She's built a firm on her own terms, focusing on helping families move on in their own direction on good terms. Her practice makes her feel happy and fulfilled, she only works with clients she feels good about, and she keeps humming along. Thinking of going solo? Koenig's story will inspire you. Questions or ideas about solo and small practices? Drop us a line at NewSolo@legaltalknetwork.com   Topics: It can be done. Guest Cassandra Koening knew she wanted to run a solo practice, and checking in four years later we hear how she is making it work.  Technology and outsourcing are key components in a true solo practice. Learn how to source and maximize tech (and as we've said before, don't try to be your own bookkeeper).  Not every day is packed with client meetings. Sometimes it takes a little contracted side work to keep the wheels spinning, and that's OK.

Struggling to scale your business without burning out? One book could change everything. In this episode of Beyond A Million, Chandler Bolt returns to share how one book helped drive $7 million in revenue, not from royalties, but from its deep integration into every corner of his business. The founder of Self Publishing School and author of Published, breaks down the real strategy behind writing books that generate leads, close sales, and onboard employees at scale. We also take a look at the big picture: hiring A-players vs. farm league talent, what it means to “go pro” in content creation, and why Chandler transitioned from a fully remote company to building a culture-driven in-person office.

Thank you! --- “I haven't believed enough that he is enough.” That's what Br Angelo says as a guest on this episode, and how true is it for each of us? Even when we experience God's goodness, repeatedly and in big and small ways, it can be a struggle to keep believing that God is enough. He is LORD. He is enough, and we only have to give him permission to work. It sounds simple, but it can be tough when we've faced rejection in other areas of our lives. How do we believe? How do we find the courage and take the risk—to learn he always shows up? Surrender to the Lordship of Jesus. It can be a struggle, but while we might have many struggles, this is the right one.

This episode begins with a description of the youngest sisters and youngest brothers in fairy tales. They seem out of place and behind everyone else, yet they are the only ones able to break the collective spells of materialism, resentment and despair. They represent the genuine dreamer inside all of us and they are deeply connected to the dream of life and the wisdom of mythology. As agents of myth they have exactly what this troubled world most needs. However, it is the attitudes of the older brothers and sisters that prevail in the daily world. Only after all else has failed will people turn to the youngest sister or brother within who has been holding onto the true dream of life all along.     Michael Meade then lays out the old idea of the Three Kinds of Thinking: the logical, the psychological and the mythological. Following the trail of the youngest aspects of the psyche, he shows how when all else makes no sense, mythic imagination makes the most sense. Myth is the deepest layer of life where grace and wisdom and even redemption can be found.     Thank you for listening to and supporting Living Myth.
