In Business or in Life, How YOU handle Crisis will make the Difference In this powerful episode of A New Direction with Coach Jay Izso, we sit down with global legal and compliance expert Fabiana Lacerca-Allen to explore the mindset and tools needed to lead through the most challenging moments. As the author of the thought-provoking book Crisis Capable – Building Your Capacity to Survive and Succeed in Every Environment, Fabiana draws from decades of experience navigating legal and corporate crises for Fortune 100 companies, as well as her remarkable personal journey—from growing up during political unrest in Argentina to becoming a trailblazing executive in the U.S. “Crisis Capable” isn't just a book about corporate strategy—it's a guide to personal resilience, ethical leadership, and staying calm under fire. Fabiana emphasizes the importance of preparation, agility, and emotional intelligence, offering practical frameworks that apply whether you're leading a business, a team, or yourself through uncertain times. We talk about what it means to build “muscle memory” for crisis situations, how to create a culture of accountability, and why integrity must remain non-negotiable—even when the stakes are high. Throughout our conversation, Fabiana shares compelling stories that illustrate how to transform pressure into purpose. From boardrooms to global stages, she has advised some of the most influential leaders in the world, and her insights are not only timely—they're timeless. You'll hear how adversity shaped her leadership philosophy, and how we can all develop the internal grit and external tools to lead when everything is on the line. Whether you're an executive, entrepreneur, or simply someone seeking to strengthen your ability to thrive under pressure, this episode is a must-listen. Join Coach Jay and Fabiana as we chart a new direction—one that equips you to face crisis not with fear, but with confidence, clarity, and capability. Fabiana Lecerca-Allen's book, "Crisis Capable: Building Your Capacity to Survive and Succeed in Every Environment" is such a great read.  Filled with true stories of Fabiana's life as she grew up in Argentina during a time of crisis and uncertainty as the country was transitioning from military dictatorship to a democracy. And how her family lived, survived and thrived. From her experiences, Fabiana walks us through timeless and needed strategies to handle both the crisis in life and in the business environment.  These practical lessons are so good that no matter what age you are, or what your station in life you may be in, they absolutely apply. It all starts with becoming more situationally aware.  Sadly in today's society as we mostly look down at our phones, or cannot leave our phones alone, we have lost the capability and art of being able to look at our surroundings, understanding the situation, and remain calm and level-headed to have a plan of how we will proceed and move so that we can maintain an advantage in whatever situation we find ourselves in. As an attorney who has dealt with complicated conflict, she applies what she has learned from her lifetime of trials and tribulations and is able to take the crisis out of the crisis. Encouraging us to choose our reactions, staying calm, having a plan, be less impulsive, grow our self-esteem, become more confident and set our boundaries. She further does an incredible job of encouraging the need for greater emotional intelligence and foremost knowing your values so that you know exactly what you will and won't do. Such a great read, well written and full of fantastic practical insights for everyone. Get your copy by clicking Crisis Capable.   Please say thank you to the sponsors of A New Direction!

From Debt to Seven Figures: How Jeanne Omlor Built a Thriving Online Business Without Ads How does a single parent go from deep debt to a seven-figure business in less than two years without spending on advertising? In this compelling episode, host Gary Heldt welcomes Jeanne Omlor, a Business Strategist, Seven-Figure Online Business Coach, and Certified Servant Leadership Executive Coach who shares her remarkable transformation. Jeanne Omlor shares her journey from struggling offline coach to successful online business owner. After eight years of working as a coach and facing mounting debt after a life change, Jeanne decided to pivot to online business. Despite initially investing in Facebook ads training, she discovered the power of organic marketing instead. By developing a system based on human relationships, she built a seven-figure business in just 17 months with approximately 92% profit margin. Five and a half years later, she maintains a sustainable business that has helped nearly 500 coaches, consultants, and service providers thrive through her organic marketing methods. Key Takeaways → Following up properly with leads is essential for business success. Most business owners fail to implement a systematic approach to follow-up, letting potential clients slip away. → Organic social media marketing on platforms like LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook presents enormous opportunities that many businesses aren't properly harnessing. → Fear of judgment and concern about professional image often prevents business owners from taking the necessary actions to grow their client base. → Business anxiety affects quality of life - when you're constantly worried about finances, you can't be fully present with loved ones even when physically with them. → Success brings freedom from financial anxiety, which significantly contributes to overall happiness and life satisfaction. Quotes from Jeanne "There's not a worse feeling in the world than not fulfilling your potential. You're doing all the things, you're doing everything to be a good parent... but it doesn't feel good because you're just worried." "Thriving wasn't really the order of the day with me. Because I'm emotionally connected to that, I don't want people to go through what I went through. I want it to happen for them."

This week, the Pastors' Wives are keeping it real about friendship—especially the kind that forms (and sometimes struggles) in ministry life. They dive into the beauty and the mess: from honest conversations and counseling breakthroughs (true story) to the battle against jealousy and comparison.They talk about how vulnerability builds trust, why your spouse can actually help your friendships, and the importance of carving out time for your people—even when life gets busy. It's a conversation full of laughter, wisdom, and encouragement to fight for the kind of friendships that go the distance— even if you're the pastor's wife.To purchase the BOOK, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/book⁠⁠To shop our MERCH, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/shop⁠⁠Want to support the Pastors' Wives Tell All podcast ministry?

Romantic relationships are sacred, powerful, and life-giving. But I don't have to tell you how difficult it is to love and let yourself be loved.Marriage and family therapist Dr. Terry Hargrave has been helping couples in crisis restore broken relationships for decades, teaching them how to get unstuck, improve communication, and move beyond destructive coping mechanisms—to find reciprocity, self-affirming confidence, emotional regulation, and a joyful, lasting love.In a world marked by loneliness, disconnection, and emotional dysregulation, Hargrave offers powerful insights on the human need for identity, safety, and belonging—and how we can heal the wounds that keep us stuck. Drawing on decades of therapeutic experience and deep personal reflection, Hargrave explains how coping mechanisms like blame, shame, control, and escape can damage relationships—and how the peace cycle of nurture, self-valuing, balanced give-and-take, and connection can restore wholeness. He discusses his unique approach to the healing and restorative power of relationships, which lifts us up to our potential, encouraging us toward a nurturing, self-valuing, non-controlling reciprocity, and true connection.In this conversation with Terry Hargrave, we discuss:How to turn around a relationship in crisis and get off the emotional rollercoasterHow to build security and trust in order to improve or repair a marriage or long-term relationshipCoping mechanisms of blame, shame, control, and escapePractical steps to learn emotional self-regulationWhat to do when only one partner is working on a relationshipThe role of the brain and neuroplasticity in relational repairAnd the spiritual underpinnings of Terry's approach to restoration therapyEpisode Highlights"It don't mean a thing if you ain't got that swing—until you claim your belovedness for yourself, nothing will change.""Relationships are a mirror—we discover who we are through how others see us.""Blame, shame, control, and escape—nothing good comes from these coping mechanisms.""Understanding doesn't produce change. Doing produces change.""When we nurture, self-value, connect, and cooperate, unleashed joy happens.""Thriving is doing more of your best self, not learning something new."Helpful Links and ResourcesRestoration Therapy Training ResourcesThe Mindful Marriage by Ron Deal and Nan Deal (with Terry and Sharon Hargrave)Five Days to a New Self by Terry HargraveEmotionally Focused Therapy and Sue Johnson's LegacyShow NotesIntroduction to Terry Hargrave and the importance of Restoration Therapy today"We are still the same humans, but with a bigger pipe of problems and fewer emotional connections."Emotional dysregulation linked to identity and safety threatsRelationships as a mirror to the self and necessary for human thriving"For there to be a me, there has to be a thou."Why relationships are difficult: imperfection, wounding, and unmet needsHow family of origin wounds influence coping styles"Families don't mean to screw each other up, but somehow they manage to."Introduction of the four major unhealthy coping mechanisms: blame, shame, control, and escapeHow overachievement, perfectionism, and withdrawal are survival strategies from early wounding"Your greatest strength might actually be an old coping habit getting in the way of intimacy."The relational signs that coping mechanisms are damaging relationshipsHealing through self-regulation: speaking truth to yourself with love"Put your hand on your heart and remind yourself of who you really are."The difference between co-regulation and self-regulation in emotional healingRestoration Therapy's peace cycle: nurture, self-value, balance, connection"Nothing good comes from blame, shame, control, or escape."The role of practice and neuroplasticity in forming new relational habits"Doing, not just understanding, is what rewires the brain."How thriving relationships move from neediness to adventurous partnershipIntimacy as knowing yourself more fully through connection, not just need satisfactionCooperative growth and mutual flourishing as hallmarks of thrivingApplication of restoration principles to broader societal healing and reconciliation"Unleashed joy happens when we choose nurture and connection, even with adversaries."The critical role of faith in affirming belovedness and ultimate identity"Everyone else and even God can tell you you're beloved—but you have to claim it for yourself."Practical advice for knowing when to seek therapyWhere to find Restoration Therapy-trained therapistsResources for learning more: Mindful Marriage and other Restoration Therapy booksThe key takeaways that I will carry with me from this conversation are the following:You can change. Your relationship can change. But it takes a daily practice of hard work to create lasting change.And though you might fail, there is hope that you can begin again.Our coping mechanisms are not superpowers. They hurt us and the people we love.Understanding is not enough. Action and behavior has to follow for change to occur.[Any others?] It takes two to tango, but that doesn't get you off the hook from doing the work on yourself.And finally, a thriving relationship creates joy all around it, within a family, in a community, and it shows how personal relationships can change society.About Terry HargraveDr. Terry Hargrave.

After dealing with some family business prompted a lot of deep thinking, we decided to switch up from our originally planned episode this week to share some of those thoughts in a brief monologue while also paying tribute to a family member. Sorry to be a little late getting it pushed out the door, but we hope y'all enjoy it and pass it along to others.

In this episode of The Daily Windup, I had the pleasure of speaking with an experienced entrepreneur, who started his journey by writing a business plan and tapping into valuable free resources.

Will a new relationship work out?For most of us, situations of uncertainty trigger anxiety, even fear. But the stress of uncertainty doesn't have to overwhelm you. You can learn to navigate it with secure, adaptable confidence so you can keep thriving and progress towards your ultimate goals.Today on the show, Rich Diviney, a retired Navy SEAL commander, returns to share insights from his new book Masters of Uncertainty.
