Unlike many rulers of his time, Cyrus understood that power was not about control but about creating unity through shared purpose. His ability to win wars without fighting, empower his people while maintaining oversight, and earn loyalty rather than demand it makes him a leadership model worth studying today.Mahan and Darius also discuss how leaders today struggle with many of the same challenges Cyrus faced—gaining trust, balancing autonomy with accountability, and inspiring people to commit to a vision bigger than themselves. Through historical insights and modern applications, this episode explores how executives can apply Cyrus's timeless leadership strategies to navigate uncertainty, foster high-performing cultures, and lead with clarity and purpose.Whether you're a CEO, an entrepreneur, or a leader guiding a team through transformation, this conversation will challenge the way you think about leadership.

From the importance of visualization and mindset to the timeless principles that stand the test of time, this episode is packed with valuable takeaways for both baseball enthusiasts and financial planners alike.

Spring is around the corner, and baseball season is officially underway. 02:11 – Baseball Season & Personal Connections Discussing LSU baseball's strong start and high expectations. The Bush brothers' personal history with baseball, from childhood games to watching the Big Red Machine. Baseball's role in shaping their competitive mindset and teamwork skills. 06:15 – Teamwork in Baseball & Financial Planning Success in baseball depends on specialized roles—just like in financial planning.

Why building a solid financial team is crucial for long-term success. 09:35 – The Role of Coaching in Both Worlds The best baseball teams have great coaches—so do successful investors.

Lessons learned from past generations, including those who lived through the Great Depression. 14:49 – Timeless Principles in Baseball & Finance The game of baseball has remained largely the same for over a century—just like financial fundamentals.

Envisioning financial success just as athletes visualize their victories. The "retirement party" exercise from The Runway Decade book—defining what success looks like before it happens. 22:46 – Conclusion & Call to Action "If it is to be, it's up to me." – The importance of personal responsibility in financial success. Encouragement for listeners to take proactive steps in their financial planning. Connect with Bill and Pete at HorizonFG.com or TheRunwayDecade.com. Sound Bites: "Expectations are pretty high for the LSU Tigers." "You can't hold up the mirror to yourself and see it." "Money is talked about in terms of scarcity or abundance."

Michael Thompson is a career coach, lecturer at EAE Business School in Barcelona, Spain, and strategic communication advisor to top business leaders worldwide. Growing up, Michael's stutter and social anxiety kept him reserved and reluctant to pursue his goals. Over time he challenged his supposed weaknesses by putting himself out in the world and discovered the person he did not know he could become. Michael developed a system of principles to help people express themselves more confidently and build meaningful relationships without sacrificing their nature. He brings those principles to life in his book Shy by Design: 12 Timeless Principles to Quietly Stand Out. His writing has also appeared in numerous publications, including Fast Company, Insider, Forbes, INC, MSN, and Apple News. He recounts his professional evolution from a barback to a successful sales manager, his transformative experiences in teaching and coaching, and his eventual success as a writer and published author. Michael offers valuable insights on self-discovery, the importance of vulnerability, and the power of going slow and steady in one's career.  As a kid, Michael allowed his shyness, severe stutter, and crippling social anxiety to dominate his internal dialog and undermine his hopes and dreams. He was mocked by his peers and even some teachers, reinforcing the self-limiting belief that he was better off tucked away in a corner, safe from harm's way. Yet, while some people focus on their strengths to win the life they want, Michael chose to pursue the opposite path and pushed himself, making a commitment to collect blisters instead of chasing bliss. He stepped into the person he didn't even know he was capable of becoming. In Shy by Design, Michael shares his inspiring journey of moving from being riddled with self-doubt to becoming a sought-after career coach, university leadership lecturer, and strategic communication advisor for top global business executives and entrepreneurs. He chronicles his transformation from feeling left out to leading others, all the while staying true to his shy and quiet nature. Through numerous examples, from embracing our imperfections to questioning our "perceived" weaknesses, Michael offers strategies we can all use to cement our own principles that are authentic to who we each are and amplify your impact without sacrificing your shy nature. Packaged into 12 easy-to-grasp principles, Shy by Design will teach you to: Grow your confidence and strengthen communication skills on your own terms and at your own pace. Create meaningful connections and foster a close-knit community that supports personal growth. Lead with quiet conviction that uplifts others on the climb toward success. Michael's story of navigating the often loud world of sales and communication – while staying true to his shy way of being – will inspire you to embrace your unique strengths and see your “perceived” weaknesses through a more empowered lens.

Author Alexandra Hudson joins Josh to discuss historical lessons of civility. Specifically, lessons we can learn from the relationship between two of our founding fathers, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson.  We discuss how their bitter political differences drove them apart and destroyed their friendship, and how they were able to use civility and respect to rekindle that friendship later in life. Alexandra believes we can "revive the wisdom of the past to help us better our lives today," and that the story of Adams and Jefferson is an example of how we can bridge the divisions that build up in relationships, and rekindle the ones that have been strained due to political differences in our lives.   Alexandra's article in the Washington Post:   https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/12/04/jefferson-adams-politics-friendship/   Follow Alexandra on X, and at Civic Renaissance:   https://x.com/lexiohudson?s=21&t=S8JoQpY3m4n6bFrTo8tLrg https://www.civic-renaissance.com/   Get a copy of Alexandra's book The Soul of Civility.

Shy By Design 12 Principles to Quietly Stand Out You may be one of those people who consider themselves "shy" making it difficult for you to stand out among the crowd of highly extroverted people. Or you simply may be someone who isn't much of a talker, or in the spotlight type of person, where trying to stand out feels overwhelming. So how does someone still compete and stand out in a world where so many talkers and extroverts dominate the stage? You may believe it is not possible to be in certain industries like sales and be successful, because it requires an extroverted stand out person. Not so fast my friend. In this episode of A New Direction, Global Communication Advisor and leadership lecturer Michael Thompson joins us to help all of us understand that who you are is enough, in his book "Shy By Design: 12 Timeless Principles to Quietly Stand Out." Michael Thompson's book, "Shy by Design: 12 Timeless Principles to Quietly Stand Out" is an outstanding book! This book is not just for the "shy" and "introverted", but also for those of us who are "talkers" and "extroverted". Shy By Design walks us through 12 practical principles that will help everyone stand out. It all starts by accepting who you are, then carefully moves into action steps in your mindset and behavior that create success. I think one of the most powerful lessons in the book is Michael Thompson's story of having a speech stutter and yet becoming a top salesperson. He talks us through becoming more self-aware, and changing the stories we tell ourselves that are keeping us from meeting the potential we were created to be. As an extrovert myself, this book made me stop and consider who may I be running over because I am not paying attention to those who are not like me. I think this book is perfect for the student and adult who struggles in a world where they find it difficult to be seen and create a more successful world for themselves.

How can we be sure viruses don't exist? What about the “patient 0” who transmits diseases at the start of nearly every pandemic? And do germs and microorganisms exist? What's making us sick, if not these things? Dr. Samantha and  Dr. Mark Bailey are the authors of “The Final Pandemic” and today they answer frequently asked questions about viruses. They explain how the medical community has been unable to prove that viruses make us sick or that they even exist in the first place. They also answer questions about the use of antibiotics and about whether germ theory and terrain theory can possibly coexist.
