Men, Sir InQ has a message for you: your hard d*ck may be trying to ruin your life.

One client reclaimed 15% of their lapsing donors and added $200,000 by year-end. No new campaigns. No bigger team. Just a stewardship system running quietly in the background. Rachel Bearbower built it.As founder of the Nonprofit Automation Agency, Rachel has helped clients climb from 35% to 50% donor retention in a single year, recover nearly $20,000 in lapsed gifts in 90 days, and hand 20+ hours a month back to overstretched teams — all without losing the human touch.

I don't operate from assumptions or emotions. I question my own beliefs, compare them to first principles, and accept when I'm wrong, even if it's uncomfortable. Thinking this way requires effort, independent thought, and the willingness to let go of long held conclusions. That's how I stop following what I've always believed and start building from what's actually true. Show Notes: [05:38]#1 People default to social proof. [10:48]#2 Questioning assumptions creates discomfort.  [15:14]#3 Shortcut thinking replaces deep analysis. [17:22] Recap Next Steps: --- Execution is not a talent.   It is a standard. If your results don't match your ability, something in your approach is out of alignment. Most people do not have a motivation problem.   They have a consistency problem.

In this roundtable episode, Travis Chappell is joined by producer Eric and guest co-host Brandon Birkmeyer of Brands on Brands for a thoughtful—and often hilarious—discussion about money, generosity, and financial advice. Using viral clips of pastors discussing tithing as a jumping-off point, they explore the ethics of financial messaging, the dangers of guilt-based persuasion, and why context matters when giving financial advice. On this episode we talk about: The difference between healthy generosity and guilt-driven financial messaging Why financial advice should account for individual circumstances instead of one-size-fits-all rules The similarities between church fundraising, business marketing, and high-ticket sales tactics How emotional persuasion can influence financial decisions for better or worse Why balanced, nuanced advice almost always beats extreme viewpoints Top 3 Takeaways Financial advice should always consider a person's unique circumstances—what works for one individual may be harmful for another. Giving should come from generosity and shared purpose, not fear, shame, or pressure. Whether you're a business, nonprofit, or church, honest communication builds more trust than manipulative marketing tactics. Notable Quotes "There's always a balanced approach. Typically, the people preaching one end or the other of the polarity are usually the ones who are incorrect." "Money only solves your money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems with money in the bank." "I'm not telling everybody here to go take out a bunch of credit cards... I'm saying that's what worked for me."

Jesus challenges the religious leaders by exposing how human traditions can quietly replace God's truth. While they focused on protecting long-standing customs, they neglected God's actual commands, revealing hearts that honored Him outwardly but were distant inwardly. This message invites us to examine the unconscious traditions, assumptions, and patterns we follow that may be preventing us from recognizing God's fresh direction and calling. True obedience is not about preserving familiar practices but about remaining sensitive to God's Word and willing to follow Him wherever He leads. __________ Matthew 15:1-9 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________

Episode 307 - On Gossip Have you ever realized that a "harmless" conversation can sometimes start to tear someone down? In this episode, the friars talk about gossip, why it can be so easy to fall into, why it often feels like connection, and why it never really gives us the communion we're looking for. Whether it happens at work, in friendships, in community, or around the people we love, gossip can quietly train our hearts to tear down instead of build up. The friars reflect on the deeper questions beneath gossip: What am I seeking here? Am I trading authenticity for connection? Am I willing to let my discipleship reach even the way I speak about others? This conversation is a gentle invitation to bring Jesus into our words, our relationships, and the places where we feel tempted to belong at someone else's expense. Join us as we learn to speak with greater charity, courage, and freedom, and let our words become a place where Christ is present.

What are we supposed to make of Palantir — a company whose software has helped organizations save lives, and end them? And what of CEO Alex Karp's warnings that AI could upend American democracy? Journalist Michael Steinberger spent six years reporting on Karp for his biography, The Philosopher in the Valley: Alex Karp, Palantir, and the Rise of the Surveillance State. He tells Oz that Alex Karp, the former progressive, is a provocateur who embraces the complexity of Palantir’s work and reputation.

The founder of handbag brand Anima Iris is sitting down for a conversation that moves from grief to grit to greatness, and somehow makes all three feel like the same story.Wilglory opens up about leaving a six-figure corporate job at the start of the pandemic, why she calls business school "MBA school," and the importance of f*ck-up capital for women founders. And yes, she talks about the ongoing series where she's asking MacKenzie Scott for a billion dollars for Black women entrepreneurs, one video at a time.This episode is a masterclass in what it actually looks like to alchemize your own luck.

“Sometimes you have to leave home to see home.” In this episode of Workday Playdate, Erin takes listeners on a journey through Shanghai, Singapore, and Bali to unpack what a month abroad taught her about thinking on her feet and appreciating the life waiting back home. What starts as an international travel adventure quickly becomes a masterclass in working parenthood, and the improv mindset required when every plan goes sideways. If you've ever had to pivot quickly, parent imperfectly, navigate uncertainty, or figure it out as you go, this episode is a reminder that flexibility is a skill you can practice. Inside This Episode: The Plan Is Just a Suggestion: Delayed flights, closed restaurants, language barriers, and disappearing Wi-Fi become an unexpected lesson in adaptability. Erin shares why asking, "New scene, what's the move?" is often more useful than clinging to the original plan. How Discomfort Expands Your Capability: Whether it's navigating unfamiliar cities, managing food restrictions abroad, or solving problems without your usual routines, Erin explores why confidence often shows up after comfort leaves the room. The Truth About Good Enough Parenting: Forget perfect parenting. Erin reflects on what it means to be present, resourceful, and human while parenting on the road—and why that's more than enough. Why Your Village Matters More Than Ever: From family support to travel companions to the people who step in when life gets complicated, this episode is a celebration of the teams, communities, and ensembles that make hard things possible. Sometimes You Have to Leave Home to See Home: Distance has a funny way of creating clarity. Erin shares how stepping away from everyday life gave her a deeper appreciation for her routines, her community, and the life she built. What to Do Now: Treat the Plan Like a Draft: The next time something changes unexpectedly, ask yourself: "What's possible now?" instead of "How do I get back to the original plan?" Collect Evidence of Your Capability: Keep track of moments when you handled something difficult, unfamiliar, or inconvenient. Your resilience deserves receipts. Strengthen Your Village: Reach out to someone who has supported you recently and let them know the difference they made. Gratitude is one of the fastest ways to strengthen community. Your Freebie You're calm, capable, and composed… until things take an unexpected turn (as they tend to do)!

Could One Shift in Thinking Change Your Health and Humanity's Future?with Dr. Bruce LiptonWhat if the biggest threat to your health isn't your genes—but the beliefs you've inherited?In this thought-provoking conversation, Dr. Bruce Lipton returns to the show to challenge one of the most deeply ingrained ideas in modern science: that our genes determine our destiny. Drawing on decades of research in epigenetics, cell biology, and quantum science, Bruce explains why our environment, our perceptions, and our subconscious programming have a far greater influence on our biology than we've been led to believe.But this conversation goes far beyond personal health.Bruce shares why humanity is standing at an evolutionary crossroads. The outdated belief in competition, scarcity, and survival of the fittest has shaped not only our healthcare system, but our economy, relationships, and society as a whole. If we continue operating from those beliefs, we risk creating the very future we fear. Yet by shifting our thinking—from fear to cooperation, from victimhood to personal responsibility—we have the power to transform both our lives and the future of our planet.Together, JJ and Bruce explore how subconscious programming formed in early childhood influences nearly every decision we make, why so many people unknowingly sabotage their own health and relationships, and how becoming conscious of these patterns is the first step toward real healing.If you've ever felt limited by your family history, discouraged by your circumstances, or wondered whether one person can truly make a difference, this episode offers both scientific insight and genuine hope.In this episode, you'll learn:Why your genes are not your destiny—and what actually influences gene expression.The difference between genetic determinism and epigenetics.How your subconscious programming shapes up to 95% of your daily life.Why changing your perception can change your biology.The connection between thoughts, emotions, stress, and physical health.How childhood conditioning influences your relationships, behaviors, and life outcomes.Why Bruce believes humanity must evolve from competition to cooperation.How quantum science supports the idea that our beliefs influence our reality.Practical ways to reclaim your personal power and begin creating a healthier future for yourself—and for humanity.Whether you're passionate about health, personal growth, consciousness, or creating a better world, this conversation will challenge what you think you know about biology and leave you with a renewed sense of possibility.Resources:Dr. Bruce Lipton's new book: Beyond DarwinLearn more about Dr. Bruce Lipton at brucelipton.comConnect with JJ Flizanes at jjflizanes.com

A profitable med spa can still be hard to scale, and even harder to sell. When the owner is responsible for every major decision, key patient relationships, team oversight, and day-to-day problem solving, the business carries more risk than the financials may initially show.  In this episode, I sit down with Annie Robertson Hockey, president of Skytale Group, to talk about what makes a medical aesthetics or wellness practice more valuable over time. We cover owner dependence, scalable systems, clean financial reporting, revenue concentration, team incentives, and the operational work that gives practice owners more options as they grow.  A Valuable Practice Can't Depend on One Person  Many practice owners become the center of the business without realizing how difficult that makes the next stage of growth. They approve the decisions, solve the team problems, manage important relationships, and step in whenever something breaks. That may work for a period of time, but eventually the owner becomes the bottleneck.  Start paying attention to where the practice still relies heavily on you. Which decisions come back to your desk? Which patients only want to see you? What happens when you take a week off? Those questions matter whether you are thinking about a future exit, adding locations, or simply trying to create more space in your own role.  From a buyer's perspective, owner dependence is risk. From an operator's perspective, it also limits how much the practice can handle without adding more stress at the top.  Build Systems Before Growth Exposes the Gaps  A process that works for one location or a small team may fall apart at twice the volume. Practice owners need to look ahead and ask whether the current operation could support two, five, or even 10 times the activity without creating chaos.  That means taking a closer look at the parts of the business that affect consistency, risk, and repeatability:  Reduce dependence on a single provider, location, treatment, or revenue stream  Document the operational systems that drive consistent patient experiences  Track where new patients come from instead of relying on assumptions about marketing performance  Build HR and sales processes that can function without constant owner involvement  Review key performance indicators over time instead of reacting to isolated monthly results  Automate repetitive processes when technology can improve consistency and reduce administrative burden  Assign clear ownership to major functions across the team  Pick an area that is creating friction, give it focused attention, and improve the process before moving on to the next one. A quarter spent strengthening one important function can be far more productive than trying to fix 10 things at the same time.  (00:07:54) Framework for expansion and exit (00:10:25) Building enterprise value (00:16:48) Thinking in scalable systems (00:20:37) Managing revenue concentration risk (00:24:44) Defining clean financial data and metrics (00:37:20) Tying incentives to controllable actions (00:42:51) Managing HR and sales processes  Your Financial Reports Should Help You Explain the Business  Clean financials are not just about accurate bookkeeping. You should be able to look at your reports, identify the major trends, and explain what is driving the numbers. A buyer will want to understand whether growth came from a stronger marketing cohort, a new provider, one unusually productive location, a change in treatment mix, or something else entirely. You should want that same clarity as the owner. Without it, you are making decisions based on a snapshot instead of understanding how the business is actually changing.  This is where trend analysis and a focused set of key performance indicators become useful. Track the metrics that help you make decisions, review them consistently, and stop collecting data simply because you can. More reporting does not automatically create better management.  The Team Has to Be Able to Carry More of the Business  Scaling exposes team issues that are easier to work around when the practice is smaller. Hiring, training, performance management, HR processes, and incentive plans all need more structure once the owner can no longer oversee every interaction. Pay particular attention to incentives. Employees should be rewarded for outcomes they can actually influence, with clear expectations and measurable responsibilities behind the plan.   As the practice matures, capable leaders, documented processes, reliable financials, and a team that can operate without constant owner involvement make the business easier to expand, easier for a buyer to evaluate, and less dependent on you.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Tony Jimenez, integrative oncology physician and founder of Hope4Cancer. Dr. Tony shares the personal story that pulled him from a surgical track into integrative cancer care, starting with his own father's diagnosis. He explains why he believes the vast majority of cancers are epigenetic rather than genetic, and walks through the root causes he looks to remove first, from nutrition and sleep to chronic stress and unresolved emotional trauma. They cover his seven key principles of healing, the role of the immune system and the microbiome, oxygenation, and why he treats the spiritual and emotional layers before the physical. The conversation closes on prevention, proactive full-body scanning, and his belief that fear, not cancer, is the real enemy.If you want to go DEEPER with me, my Substack is where I share even more behind-the-scenes, personal reflections, and wellness experiments, with new posts dropping every Thursday: https://substack.com/@thewellnessprocessFollow Dr. Tony Jimenez and Hope4Cancer:Website: https://hope4cancer.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hope4cancermexico/?hl=enFollow us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewellnessprocesspodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewellnessprocessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWellnessProcessSponsored:Visit carawayhome.com/TWP10 or use code TWP10 at checkout to take an additional 10% off your next purchase Try Jolie risk free for 60 days by going to jolieskinco.com/TWPSecure 10% off for life and begin your intentional wind-down journey today at piquelife.com/wellnessUse coupon code TWP to save 15% at boncharge.comGet $20 off the Waver Vibration Plate plus free shipping with code TWP at lifeprofitness.comProduced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Feeling like an outsider is far more common than most people admit—and that applies to men just as much as women, even if they don't always say it out loud. Our guest today, Alma Derricks, empowers adventurous leaders and global brands to uncover blind spots and think beyond conventional limits. Having worked with an impressive range of both traditional and creative companies, Alma brings deep insight into what it takes to grow through change. Even if you don't see yourself as an "adventurous leader," this conversation will challenge the insecure voice many of us need to unlearn, helping us embrace creative thinking, self-leadership, and the courage it takes to pivot successfully into what's next.

The work Va'yomer Meir addresses the situation of a Jew who was involved in a court case, and the courthouse officials forbade him from wearing a Kippa. The question arose as to whether this man was permitted to review Torah topics in his mind during his time in the courthouse, despite being bareheaded. This issue hinges on the question of "Hirhur Ke'dibbur" – whether or not we consider thinking akin to speaking. The Rambam maintains that silent thoughts are indeed halachically equivalent to spoken words, in which case one may not think Torah thoughts while not wearing a Kippa. However, Hacham Ovadia Yosef writes that Halacha does not follow this ruling of the Rambam, and even if one is entirely unclothed, he is allowed to think about Torah matters as long as he does not verbally express these thoughts. Certainly, then, it is entirely permissible to think Torah matters when one is fully clothed but not wearing a Kippa. Summary: Although one may not speak any words of Torah while not wearing a Kippa, it is permissible to silently think about Torah matters without a Kippa.

Landing a Director level UX role doesn't happen by accident, and neither does becoming the person on the other side of the hiring table a few months later. Natalie Kurz did both. She spent six months on a UX job search after a layoff, landed a Director of Experience Design and Content role at NextGen Health, and within months found herself reviewing over 600 applications for her own open positions.Natalie spent 25 years in UX, most recently as a people manager, before being laid off last May. She joined Career Strategy Lab during that UX job search, and the shift she describes isn't really about tactics. She stopped using the "spray and pray" method long enough to get clear on what she actually wanted in her next UX role. She let her LinkedIn profile, UX network, and a background she almost left off her resume, do some of the work for her.What makes this episode different is that Natalie is now the one hiring for UX roles. A few months into her new position, she's already brought on multiple UX designers, including someone from Career Strategy Lab. Natalie now experiences the exact hiring process she was on the other side of not long ago. So this conversation moves between her UX job search story and what she now looks for as a UX hiring manager, which gives listeners a rare before-and-after view of the same process.If you're currently employed in a UX role and feel like your resume, portfolio, or LinkedIn presence isn't ready to go if an opportunity showed up tomorrow, this episode is worth sitting with.Topics Discussed✅ How a recruiter found Natalie and reached out about a completely unrelated UX role, purely because of how her LinkedIn profile came across✅ Why she eventually stopped applying to every job with "UX" in the title, and what she focused on instead✅ How a cold, polite message to a lead UX designer on a team she wanted to join turned into a warm handoff before she ever talked to a recruiter✅ The background she almost left off her resume entirely, and why it ended up being a key reason she got hired✅ What it was actually like reviewing over 600 UX applications as a hiring manager, and what made a resume or portfolio stand out in the first three to five seconds✅ The line she now tells every UX applicant about generic resume bullet points, and why it matters more than people think✅ Why she doesn't see contract roles, career gaps, or career changes as red flags in a UX resume, even now that she's the one hiring✅ How she uses AI to check her own UX hiring decisions for bias, rather than to write applications✅ Why she believes she'd be far more prepared for her next UX job search than she was for her last one, and what she does now to stay that wayLinks & Resources

Find me on Substack, search for my name.This is a summer classic — a re-release of an enhanced, longer audio episode that originally aired in late 2022, with my added intro and commentary. It's among my most cherished Talking Billions episodes of all time. If you missed it, this is your moment. If you've heard it before, welcome back.It's a heart-to-heart conversation with a dear friend, a mentor, who has shaped me and my career in so many wonderful ways.James E. “Jay” Hughes, Jr. is a widely respected voice in family wealth, governance, and legacy planning, known for helping families think beyond financial assets to the human and relational side of multigenerational success. He is the author and co-author of several influential books, including Family Wealth: Keeping It in the Family and Family: The Compact Among Generations, and his work has shaped how family offices and advisors approach long-term stewardship.Jay traces his own path to this work back to childhood: overhearing his parents argue about money, and learning that his mother's family had lost everything overnight when her grandfather's bank failed. That experience is the root of the proverb he's spent his career trying to help families escape — “shirt sleeves to shirt sleeves in three generations.”Jay lays out the five capitals of family wealth — human, intellectual, social, spiritual, and financial — and argues the profession's obsession with the last one, in isolation, is precisely what causes families to fall apart. He illustrates this with a simple hand gesture: thumb up alone is, in his words, “the death of a family.” Turn the hand over, and purpose, joint decision-making, lifelong learning, and thriving people all emerge, with financial capital finally in service of something.He explains why 70 to 85 percent of wealthy families lose their cohesion by the third generation — not usually from conflict, but from inertia, from never building a working system for making decisions together. That system, he says, is what separates families that endure from those that quietly disperse.Jay also unpacks what elders actually do in successful, long-lived tribes: they think in 100-year increments and mediate rather than decide, citing the Haudenosaunee's tradition of honoring seven generations back and seven generations forward. He connects this to a piece of advice from his own father — that clients don't come to an advisor seeking knowledge, since knowledge is fungible, but seeking courage to do something difficult.The conversation closes on money and parenting, with Jay offering a simple reframe for any parent standing in a toy store: never say “we can't afford it” — say “we're choosing not to have that today.” It's a fitting note for an episode built around Jay's foundation's larger mission — helping families flourish so they can, in turn, build a flourishing society.Find out more about James E.

This is a remastered Replay of one of our most popular episodes, "What Startups Can Learn From Poker", which was originally published on 21 December 2022. Enjoy!Original description: All season, Chris and Yaniv have talked about the mindset that is needed to succeed at venture-backed startups. For the final episode of Season 1, we tie it all together with an analogy: tournament poker. It is amazing how many things poker and startups have in common, so in this episode we use the lens of poker to discuss the big picture of how to approach building a successful startup. We dive into each of the following commonalities between poker and startup life:01:56 Playing an iterative game10:00 Burning cash13:31 Making decisions based on uncertain information18:46 Progressive learning28:44 Avoiding 'resulting'35:02 The relatively low probability of a successful outcome (and why that's OK!)This episode was inspired by the book 'Thinking in Bets' by former pro poker player Annie Duke.The PactHonor the Startup Podcast Pact!

Often times we place so much pressure on ourselves to achieve the goal, whatever it may be, that we for get that one step forward is better than no steps forward. There is no such thing as failure, unless you quit. Everything in life is practice. Athletes practice to compete and then consider the competition practice for the next competition. Thinking this way can actually bleed over into life as well. Everything we do is just practice for life. Persistence, dedication, discipline, learning to deal with setbacks. Meditation is the same way. We are practicing for life. Mindfully. One breath at a time.

In 2024, Keir Starmer became the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom after leading the Labour Party to one of the biggest election victories in modern British history. Just two years later, he has announced his resignation… and Britain is once again preparing for a new leader. Since the Brexit referendum in 2016, the UK has gone through an unusually high number of prime ministers. Each has promised to solve the country's problems, but then ended up leaving their role earlier than expected. In fact, this is now the third time I've made an episode asking the question, "Who Will Be the Next Prime Minister of the UK?" Episode 161 explored the race to replace Boris Johnson back in 2022, and Episode 302 looked at what might happen if the Conservatives lost power before the 2024 election. We're asking exactly the same question again in this episode, but this time, it's the Labour Party looking for a new leader. So, what happened? Why has Keir Starmer resigned after such a convincing election victory? Who is Andy Burnham, the politician many people expect to replace him? What kind of prime minister might he become? And why has British politics become so unstable over the past decade? Let's find out, and at the same time learn some new English vocabulary and practice your English listening comprehension.

When a child walks into your clinic presenting with a tongue thrust, a high-arched palate, or a complex feeding delay, what is your immediate clinical instinct? Is it to reach for a specific exercise in your toolkit, or is it to zoom out and analyze how the entire system is functioning together?In this solo episode, Hallie Bulkin dives into the powerful paradigm shift of becoming an integrated therapist. She challenges the common trap of relying on isolated techniques and instead lays out a roadmap for evaluating children holistically.Hallie breaks down how to run multiple clinical lenses simultaneously - from airway and breathing considerations to structural vs. functional anatomy, neurological diagnoses, and the sensory-motor layers of feeding.Key Topics & TakeawaysThe Integrated Mindset: Why focusing too closely on a single tool or therapy protocol creates clinical blind spots, and how to zoom out to assess the whole child.Running the Airway Lens First: How structural issues (like mouth breathing and palate shape) directly impact downstream oral motor habits like a tongue thrust.Deconstructing the Feeding Layers: Organizing feeding challenges into clear mechanical, sensory, and behavioral tiers to know exactly where to begin treatment.Soundbites"Look at the whole connected system. If you only look at the mouth in a vacuum, you miss the structural foundation driving the compensation.""We have to ask: what is the whole system doing? When you treat a symptom without treating the root cause, you're just chasing shadows.""Find the fire, not just the smoke.

If you're still inside the church and wondering whether there's life on the other side, Trent's story is proof that there is.If you're not familiar with the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church, this conversation offers an honest look at the pressures members can face when they begin questioning the group.We read out an insider email that gives an account of the recent Universal Meetings that Lloyd Grimshaw proudly did a video of and another insider email on how they navigate their priestly visits. 13:16 The Hacking Accusation20:27 Recording the Priest Visit34:54 The Aftermath of Interrogation48:58 Avoiding Reasoning with Authority58:58 Maintaining Family Connections01:04:24 Using Motivation to Thrive01:13:18 Curiosity and Questioning: The Key to Growth01:24:56 Questioning the Cult: Recognizing Discrepancies01:31:50 Emails from Insiders01:39:21 Prayer Meetings and Dark Intentions01:59:56 The Call for Change02:04:56 A Commitment to TruthPlease sign petition here- https://www.change.org/maplecreek-rapidreliefteamGoFundMe link- https://gofund.me/c58b2bab3Link for Insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/cig5oswsu0e45tyzm6wof/45000-175.mp4?rlkey=n36rthk1c45w4uq6zwglo8tfk&st=tyik7b0e&dl=0Link to Podcast 110- https://youtu.be/0aut0TdcfC4Link to Fb post on Randy Thomas- https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DFcfUyKrd/Link to transcript of Randy Thomas post- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/j35skskilujt8dwae781w/Randy-Thomas-FB-Post.pdf?rlkey=w7lgnk8u0pujby7clhdb0ifc5&st=8ri5zayv&dl=0To share your story or be a guest on the show, email info.getalife@proton.meGet a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06Olive Leaf Network- https://oliveleaf.network/Thinking of Leaving Pamphlet and resources - https://oliveleaf.network/resources/Link to Anchor/Spotify- https://open.spotify.com/show/4GhNv1hZp6tjfLyA4s6PMu?si=Gs5euyWpT4y7lOS8OTe4XAPreston Down Trust Decision-https://www.gov.uk/government/news/commission-publishes-report-on-the-preston-down-trustAberdeen incident- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1riImgAqwaqGwjYq6vRQIr4_jscJA0eQN/view?usp=drive_linkIf we walk in the light letters-https://drive.google.com/file/d/14WlgJladl1r95YGxW0FbZ0prYfjlg7FU/view?usp=sharingAdmin/Legal email address:stouffvillelegal-gal@protonmail.comOffice address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #abuse #church #cult #religion #trauma #religioustrauma #sexualabuse #mindcontrol #brainwashing #conversation #exmembers #exposingtruth #expose #exposure #whistleblower #getalifepodcast #getalife #podcast #rules #strict #exclusivebrethren #brucehales #BruceHales #BDH #BruceDHales #UniversalBusinessTeam #UBT #RRT #RapidReliefTeam #Aberdeen #OneSchoolGlobal #OSG #johnhales #shutup #withdrawnfrom #worldly #excommunicate #assemblydeath #christiansect #christiancult #canadiancult #canadiansect #sect #worldwidesect #worldwidecult #cultescape #cultescapestory #bully #bullying #brokenfamily #awareness #cultescape #cultandculturepodcast #cultescapee #cultescapeer #cultescapeeinterview #askingforhelp #unispace

On this episode, after over a month away from league play, Glenn & Amy talk about what we typically talk about, an Atlanta United loss.

Kit Chellel is an investigative journalist, Bloomberg Businessweek writer, and author of Lucky Devils. After uncovering a hidden world of elite professional gamblers who consistently beat casinos, sportsbooks, and betting markets, Kit spent years researching how these "advantage players" think—and discovered their mindset has applications far beyond gambling. In this episode, he shares the surprising parallels between betting, investing, entrepreneurship, and decision-making under uncertainty. On this episode we talk about: How elite advantage gamblers consistently profit from betting markets Why gambling, investing, and entrepreneurship all rely on finding an edge The surprising history of computer-driven sports betting and advantage play How AI is transforming sports betting and predictive markets Lessons entrepreneurs can learn about risk management, probability, and making better decisions Top 3 Takeaways The world's best gamblers don't rely on luck—they rely on data, probability, discipline, and finding small edges that compound over time. Thinking in probabilities instead of certainties leads to better business, investing, and career decisions. Rather than betting everything on one opportunity, consistently making many well-calculated bets increases your chances of long-term success. Notable Quotes "They're not like normal gamblers. They're much more like sophisticated investors or hedge funds." "Failure is built into their mindset." "The best thing you can do is be bold enough to take lots of good bets."

Waiting to “feel ready” is one of the cleanest ways to stay stuck.Angela Shurina sits down with sales coach and author Charles Hsuan to unpack the real reason people don't change, and it has less to do with willpower than with decision mechanics. Charles shares how he left banking, stumbled into sales, and then spent years distilling what makes someone commit. Charles Hsuan never planned to end up in sales — or coaching. He studied financial management, spent years hating a banking job so much he'd wish for his car to break down so he'd have an excuse not to go in. A friend's tip led him into sales almost by accident, and a knack he didn't know he had turned into a 20+ year career, and eventually a very successful business built on one simple idea.In this episode, Charles and Angela dig into what actually drives a "yes" — and what actually makes people change instead of just thinking about it.Charles shares the 3-part formula behind every purchasing decision, the 15-minute rule that makes "1% better" concrete instead of vague, and the story of a Viking king who never knew when a ship was "good enough" to launch.What we cover:Why Charles spent his first 3 years in business "storytelling" instead of selling — and the one conversation that changed everythingThe decision formula to make anyone to finally change instead of thinking about changingThe "1 to 10" urgency question Charles asks every prospect, and why anything under an 8 is a soft no1,440 minutes in a day — how Charles turned "1% improvement" into something doable every day instead of drowning in vague self-development toolsGMO (Good enough to move on) — and the cautionary tale of the ship that sank because nobody knew when to stop buildingGrowing up with ADHD, repeating two grades, and how sport and community rebuilt his confidenceGain vs. gap: why measuring how far you've come beats measuring how far you have to goThe shift from chasing success to chasing significance — and why his book is really a letter to his sonAbout Charles HsuanCharles Hsuan knows what it's like to start with challenges and turn them into growth.Growing up with ADHD, he struggled with school but quickly discovered the power of words. During his studies in Financial Management, he realised that clear communication could influence outcomes — and it shaped his career. Today, through his Story-Selling coaching at Flying Kite, Charles helps industry experts make complicated ideas simple, so that clients instantly understand their value.

How often do you find yourself rushing… even when nothing is actually wrong? You're hurrying your kids to get in the car. Speed-walking through the grocery store. Eating lunch while answering emails. Counting down to Friday. Thinking, "I just need to get through today." Somewhere along the way, I think we've started treating ordinary life like it's an emergency. I started saying these 5 words to myself... "This is not an emergency." Today we're going to talk about how to stop living like every single thing is on fire... ...because it isn't. And when you start reminding yourself that this isn't an emergency... you don't just become calmer… you become happier overall.        We Have Accidentally Turned Everyday Life Into An Emergency Think about how many times today you probably said... "Hurry." "We're late." "Come on." "We don't have time." "Let's go." Most of us are moving at emergency speed... ...without an emergency.   Ask yourself... If someone watched security camera footage of my life... would they think I was constantly responding to disasters? Or just making breakfast? Because sometimes they look exactly the same.       Examples We Rush Through Every Day Getting kids ready for school Instead of... "Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!" Imagine saying internally... "This isn't an emergency." Will they still get dressed? Yes. Will yelling make it faster? Usually not. But it definitely changes everyone's morning.     Waiting in line We immediately grab our phones. Complain. Get frustrated. Instead... "This isn't an emergency." Maybe it's two extra minutes. Maybe this becomes your breathing break.   Traffic Somebody cuts you off. You're late. Heart rate skyrockets. Except... You arriving thirty seconds sooner changes almost nothing.     Grocery shopping People rush aisle to aisle. Barely noticing anyone. Never smiling. Never enjoying choosing food they'll feed their family. Life becomes one giant checklist.       Cleaning your house Instead of... "I have to get this done." Try... "I GET to create a home my family enjoys." Same task. Different experience.       Folding laundry Jay Shetty often talks about mindfulness inside ordinary moments. Laundry isn't stealing your life. Laundry IS your life. These ordinary moments ARE your life.       The "Can't Wait Until..." Trap This one is huge. People spend decades saying... "I can't wait until..." The baby sleeps through the night. They're potty trained. They're in kindergarten. Middle school. High school. College. Retirement. Vacation. Friday. Summer. The remodel is finished. When we finally move. When the house is clean. When I lose twenty pounds. Jay Shetty talks often about how our minds live in the future... and miss the only place life actually exists. Today.       What If This Was The Good Part? This might be the chapter you'll miss someday. The noisy dinner table. Little baseball cleats by the door. Teenagers asking for rides. Kids needing hugs. Messy kitchens. Dog hair everywhere. The chaos... might actually be the dream.       Looking For What's Wrong One thing I've noticed... When we're rushing... our brain becomes a problem detector. Traffic. Mess. Noise. Delays. People moving too slowly. Bad service. Rain. We're constantly scanning for irritation. Instead... What if we asked... What's beautiful about this moment? What would I miss if this disappeared tomorrow?   The Brain Finds What It Looks For If you're looking for inconvenience... you'll always find it. If you're looking for joy... you'll find that too. This is something both Mel Robbins and Jay Shetty return to in different ways: attention shapes experience. You don't control every circumstance, but you do have influence over where your mind rests.   Different Phases Of Life Young parents Instead of... "I just need bedtime." Think... "This little voice asking for one more story won't last forever."   Parents of teenagers Instead of... "I can't wait until they're independent." Think... "One day they'll stop needing me this much."   Working professionals Instead of rushing meeting to meeting... Take thirty seconds. Breathe. Drink your coffee while it's hot. Look out the window. Nothing explodes.   Entrepreneurs Everything feels urgent. Every email. Every customer. Every notification. Every opportunity. But if we're honest... very few business decisions require panic. Good businesses are built through consistent decisions... not frantic ones.       Questions To Ask Yourself Whenever you feel yourself speeding up... Ask: Is someone in danger? Is this actually urgent? Will this matter next week? Can I slow my breathing? Can I speak softer? Can I smile? Can I enjoy this? Can I choose peace instead?   My Favorite Reset Whenever I notice myself getting worked up... I literally say... "This is not an emergency." Sometimes out loud. Immediately... My shoulders drop. My breathing slows. My voice softens. I become a better mom. A better wife. A better friend. A better business owner. Not because my circumstances changed... but because my nervous system changed.   Tiny Moments That Become Better Waiting for your coffee. Watching your child tie their shoes. Cooking dinner. Folding towels. Driving to volleyball practice. Standing in line at Disneyland. Watching Little League warmups. Listening to your teenager tell a story that takes forever. Walking your dog. Sunsets. Rainstorms. Family dinners. These moments don't need to be escaped. They're the moments we're going to remember.   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK This week... Every single time you notice yourself rushing... Pause. Take one deep breath. And simply say... "This isn't an emergency." Then intentionally slow down by just 10%. Walk slower. Talk slower. Eat slower. Drive calmer. Listen longer. Smile more. You might be surprised how much life you discover in those extra few seconds.     Life isn't usually asking us to move faster. It's asking us to be more present. The irony is that we spend so much of life racing toward the future... that we barely experience the life we're actually living. So this week... Give yourself one simple reminder. "This is not an emergency." Because most of the time... it isn't. And when you stop treating ordinary moments like crises... those ordinary moments become extraordinary. I hope this episode helps you slow down & enjoy the beautiful life you're already living.

Episode 306 - Limited Men Have you ever felt like everyone needs something from you, and you just don't have enough to give? In this episode, the friars reflect honestly on leadership, fatherhood, responsibility, and the ache of being limited. Whether it's emails, texts, meetings, ministry, family needs, or people asking for more than we can offer, there is a real poverty in wanting to love well while knowing we cannot do everything perfectly. They talk about the humility of naming our limits, the importance of healthy boundaries, and the grace of admitting, "I am a limited man." This isn't about giving less or closing our hearts. It's about learning how to give ourselves freely, honestly, and with Jesus, trusting that our limitations are not obstacles to His work. For parents, pastors, leaders, and anyone feeling stretched thin, this conversation is a reminder that we do not have to be infinite. We are invited to be faithful, poor, generous, and dependent on the One who never runs out. Join us as we learn to accept our limits and let Jesus meet us in the poverty of what we cannot carry alone. The Poco a Poco podcast happens because of many generous donors, including recurring monthly donations of any amount. Thinking about helping out? You can give at https://spiritjuice.org/supportpoco.
