The book of James gives us wisdom for how we as Christians should face hard times. We are called to endure, call on God for wisdom, and remember the goodness of God. 

Donald Trump was expected to sign the big budget reconciliation bill on Fourth of July, and its Medicaid cuts are not good news for an already troubled MCR Health. That's the biggest local provider of healthcare services to low-income and underinsured patients.Then: In Manatee County, tensions are rising between big developers and a new set of county commissioners elected to rein in their power. Noah Vinsky reports.Next: The state legislature and governor just passed major restrictions on citizen-led constitutional amendment drives. The Florida Clean Water campaign suspended signature collections. The grassroots initiative is still hanging in there, but organizers say they need a miracle to get the signatures the state requires to get on the ballot. Reece Helmick has that report.Finally: It's Pride Month. But for aging LGBTQ people who have gone through criminalization, AIDS, and discrimination, the new political environment looks eerily like a bad past. We have a Suncoast Searchlight report. 

Guest: Dan Smytka, a coach at CEO Coaching International. Dan has global expertise in growing and leading multibillion-dollar businesses with marquee brands such as General Electric, Carrier, and Goodyear Tire and Rubber. Dan has also led businesses in Asia and Europe where he cultivated a reputation for generating profitable growth, building high-performance collaborative executive teams, and executing strategies to expand profit margins and deliver sustainable results. Quick Background: CEOs started 2025 with a long list of unknowns ranging from AI and interest rates to tariff turbulence and global conflicts. Six months later, questions about the world and the pace of change in business still outnumber definitive answers. But the best CEOs know that where there are challenges there are always opportunities. And if you have courage, vision, strategy, and a team of A-players, your company will be nimble enough to adjust on the fly and strong enough to grow through any obstacles.  On this classic episode, Dan Smytka discusses specific strategies that will help you keep moving products, delivering services, expanding your profit margins, and Making BIG Happen even when the going gets tough.

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Shauna Smith, the CEO of Savory Management, the operational arm of the Salt Lake City based private equity group Savory Fund. Savory invests in emerging restaurant concepts like Swig, Via 313, PINCHO, and Mo'Bettahs, and Shauna oversees the operations of these concepts, which includes a team of 65 in-house specialists who support the brand founders and leaders who choose to bring Savory in as equity partners in their businesses. Sam sat down with Shauna at the National Restaurant Association Show in Chicago to check in on the Savory portfolio, how the group is tapping into economies of scale to benefit each of its concepts, and what Shauna sees as the big challenges and opportunities for the remainder of 2025 and beyond. In this conversation, you'll find out why:Being a part of a restaurant portfolio can give you the operational capacity of a much bigger brandIt pays to have a close network of restaurant operators who are in your shoesCertainty is the enemy of unityConsistency, accuracy, service, and experience all factor into valueOptimism is a survival tactic Register for CREATE, our event for emerging restaurateurs, by clicking here.

Canadians celebrate our national day with pride fuelled in part by the US tariff war and talk of becoming the 51st state. The phrase elbows up entered the Canadian lexicon along with an attitude to hit back. It's generated a boom for Canadian product makers, with a new ‘buy Canadian' attitude — but has also scared off American tourists that we are trying to win back.And: Graduating from school into today's job market is scarier now than it has been for decades. The pandemic, exploding inflation, now a tariff war mean fewer jobs, and shrinking opportunities. Finding any kind of job can be a full time job for today's grads.Also: Canada is among several nations moving to make a climate change pipedream come true: devices that can suck deadly carbon emissions out of the air. They say they're getting close enough to attract serious investment.Plus: Sir David Attenborough has been the world's guide to the wonders of nature for most of his 99 years on earth. In what may be his final film, he focuses on how the seas can save us from climate change, if only we can save them from industrial overfishing.

Send us a textRecorded from the car on a Monday morning because sometimes life doesn't wait for perfect circumstances - and that's exactly the point.When Crisis Hits Close to HomeThis is a different kind of episode. Raw, real, and recorded in the midst of what I'm calling a "semi-urgent medical crisis" in my family. You know the kind - not a code blue emergency, but the agonizing wait for test results, appointments, and answers that consume your thoughts and rearrange your entire world.We spend so much time being on the other side of these moments as physicians. But sometimes, we're the ones sitting in the waiting room, holding our breath, and trying to navigate the impossible balance of being both caregiver and professional.If you've ever faced a breast cancer diagnosis, fertility struggles, or watched a loved one go through a medical crisis while trying to hold your own life together, this episode is for you.10 Ways I'm Getting Through (And You Can Too)1. Notice Yourself and Your NeedsYou can't pour from an empty cup. Even when this isn't your medical crisis, you're still a crucial part of the equation. Ask yourself moment by moment: What do I need right now to show up for what matters most?2. Continue Your Routines with Self-CompassionThe basics still matter - maybe even more now. I'm still trying to get to bed on time, wake up for exercise, and eat regularly. These routines might look different during crisis, but they're your anchor. Don't abandon what keeps you grounded.3. Let People Know What You NeedHere's the hard truth: I am less reliable and dependable to everyone else right now, and that's okay. I'm canceling plans, rescheduling patients, and making different choices. Being upfront about this isn't failure - it's honesty about where your energy needs to go.4. Accept What's True AND Allow Moments of GoodYou can simultaneously acknowledge that this is incredibly difficult while also letting in moments of joy, silliness, and playfulness when they appear. This isn't about toxic positivity - it's about not shutting yourself off from the full human experience.5. Practice Creative ProcrastinationThose big projects and dreams you've been planning? It's okay to put them on hold. This isn't giving up - it's being strategic about your focus. Future plans can wait when family needs you now.6. Get Crystal Clear on Your ValuesWe say family is our top priority, but are we living like it? When crisis hits, you get clarity fast about what actually matters. Use this clarity to make decisions moment by moment, even when it means inconveniencing others.7. Know Who's on Your TeamSome people in your life are good to bring into the loop during tough times. Others, despite being good people, are not equipped to help in crisis. This is boundaries work in action. Choose wisely who gets access to your vulnerable moments.8. Prepare for GrowthYou didn't choose this lesson, but here it is anyway. There are things for you to learn and ways for you to grow in this space Support the showTo learn more about my coaching practice and group offerings, head over to www.healthierforgood.com.

“You can't play chess with people who only own checkers because you both end up playing connect four and that's a child's game- and I no longer want to play children's games.” Ryan Clark  Has this week been our Biggest Pivot? It's been an interesting and difficult at times for The Pivot Family, we lost Channing's father and have been trying to navigate life as various things have come our way. Ryan experienced a heightened media frenzy as he expressed his take on certain topics with RG3, culturally and with family, which ultimately led him to open up on his approach when using his voice and the responsibility that comes with having a platform. We also address recent accusations about our Bill Belichick show and Channing's clears the air on comments he made about Jordon Hudson's involvement while Ryan disclosed how our conversation truly took place. And we get back to the business talking about all the hottest headlines and biggest storylines in sports from Travis Hunter wedding to prenups to the reality of WNBA and our NBA Finals picks. The guys discuss the WNBA and how the league may be at elevated popularity because of Caitlin Clark, but there are so many stars and talented players which is truly making the game so much more fun and popular to watch. We get into the NBA finals, key players to watch and who the two teams left will be and how that affects the league and ratings. We get a few laughs as we talk about prenups, break down the viral best man speech and how we would handle these situations if it was us! And as we close out our conversation, we pay tribute to Randolph Crowder Sr as Channing reflects back on his final days with his father and how this loss has affected his outlook on life as he honors the man his dad Big Randy represented. Thank you Pivot Family for rocking with us and knowing that we will always hold each other accountable and operate with integrity no matter what popular opinion may be.

National Black Brewers Association (NB2A) executive director Kevin Asato explains how obstacles have mounted for the trade group's members as diversity, equity and inclusion efforts have come under fire during the Trump administration.    “The beautiful thing is, I was Black yesterday. I'm Black today. And god willing I wake up tomorrow, I'll be Black tomorrow,” he said. “The point being, just because there isn't a tagline like DEI available, doesn't mean our challenges and our need for diversity and our need to help our Black brewers in this space has gone away. Nothing has changed. Not a single thing has changed for our space here.”   Asato shares with Brewbound managing editor Jess Infante how the NB2A is supporting its 86 Black-owned brewery members and its nearly 400 overall members during a special bonus edition of the Brewbound Podcast. He also explains why equipment donations have been key for up-and-coming Black breweries, teases ancient grain fonio's potential inclusion in Volume 3 of the Black is Beautiful collaboration efforts and talks about why some retailers are doubling-down on diverse brands.    Following the conversation with Asato, Yonder Cider founder Caitlin Braam joins Brewbound senior reporter Zoe Licata to explain how experimenting with events at her brand's taproom has broadened her hard cider brand's consumer base.    A shared taproom partnership with craft beer brand Bale Breaker has also helped Yonder breakthrough with new audiences, she explains. It's all about “not being exclusive” and “making spaces and places for various audiences, not just one.”   “There isn't just one audience for your brand. There are many. And you have to find ways to talk to them each individually,” she said.   Both conversations were recorded during the 2025 Craft Brewers Conference in Indianapolis.

BRADY QUINN (Fox Sports) joins the show with his thoughts on expanding the College Football playoffs and the potential end of the USC/ND rivalry. :30- The Mariners lose 3 out of 4 in Houston and the offense seems to have been brought back to Earth. Can the pitching get healthy enough to slow this skid? :45- The Seahawks start Ota's today and it's the first opportunity for the rookies to show off at the VMAC.

Is God building another testimony for you, through your workplace? Often, hard times come in our work, and we're called to respond as a Christ-follower. Not react with fear, self-pity, anger, resentment or push-back. But with a keen sense and trust that God is sovereign in our work. That He may have brought something to an end, for His Glory, not our punishment.  So how about YOU? .... Are YOU going through a hard time at work? And if you are, how are you responding?  We recommend first taking it to prayer, and asking the Lord what He wants you to know about the situation, how you can grow from it, and what does he want you to do next, for His glory?  Then take some time and pray for those you work alongside for the tough time they are going through too.

When we face difficulties in life, it can be tempting to give up on God. But the truth is that God never promised us an easy life. In fact, He tells us to expect trials and tribulations. In this series, Trusting God in Tough Times, Dr. Chappell compassionately communicates how God's grace does not keep us from difficulties but helps us through our tough times. You'll learn how to lean on God for strength and comfort, and how to find hope in the midst of hardship. If you're looking for a way to trust God more deeply, then this series is for you.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Use the "Why, What, How" framework to communicate hard changes—always start with the why to reduce the shiver effect and maintain trust. Don't sugarcoat bad news—treat your team like adults, be honest about challenges, and frame positives where appropriate. Create a lever cheat sheet for your sellers so they know what they can give (discounts, services) and what to ask for in return to protect deal value. After major changes like a RIF, give the team a week to process, then reset expectations with managers leading the charge into the "new normal."

Send us a textThe crushing weight of depression doesn't just affect the person diagnosed—it transforms marriages, reshaping how partners interact and survive together. Having walked this path ourselves, we're pulling back the curtain on what it truly takes to support a spouse battling the darkness of depression.Tabatha shares her 12-year journey through severe depression that began in childhood following her father's death and experiences with abuse. The physical manifestations—debilitating migraines, panic attacks, insomnia—became as real as the emotional pain. Yet after finding spiritual healing at 24, she's experienced over two decades of complete freedom from these symptoms."Depression isn't occasional sadness—it's getting stuck, becoming debilitated by it," Tabatha explains. "It's not something you can simply snap out of." This misunderstanding often leads to shame and isolation for those suffering.Ken reveals his own unexpected battle with depression following church leadership challenges and betrayal from those close to him. During this dark season, Tabatha became his bridge to healing—not by forcing him out of depression, but by supporting his vision when he couldn't see it himself, gathering resources to help him move forward, and giving him space when needed.We explore the powerful connection between unforgiveness and depression, sharing how forgiveness became the key that unlocked Tabitha's healing. The spiritual dimensions of depression often go unaddressed in clinical settings, yet we've witnessed countless breakthroughs when both spiritual and natural interventions work together.For those supporting a depressed spouse: speak life, not criticism. Understand their root struggles. Take spiritual authority over the situation while addressing practical needs. Build your own support system so you don't become depleted. And never stop believing that complete healing is possible—because we've lived it.If depression has invaded your marriage, join us for this episode filled with hope, practical wisdom, and the promise that depression doesn't have to be a life sentence. Your breakthrough might be closer than you think.GET THE BETTER MARRIAGE BOOTCAMP HERE:Better Marriage Bootcamp (kenandtabatha.com)Better Marriage 90-Day Devotional:90 Day Better Marriage Devotional - Ken and Tabatha (square.site)DOWNLOAD THE FAMILY MEETING OUTLINE HERE ⬇️https://www.kenandtabatha.com/pl/2148103888Support Our Ministry: https://myalivechurch.org/giveConnect with us:- Website:https://www.kenclaytor.comhttps://www.tabathaclaytor.comhttps://www.myalivechurch.org- Socials:Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/kenclaytor/https://www.instagram.com/tabathaclaytor/https://www.instagram.com/myalivechurch/TikTok-@Ken_Claytor@Tabathaclaytor@myalivechurchFacebook-https://www.facebook.com/PastorKenClaytorhttps://www.facebook.com/pastortabathaclaytorhttps://www.facebook.com/myalivechurch- Ask us questions: info@kenandtabatha.com

Sadie and Christian are joined by Bella and her husband, Jacob, to talk about the early years of marriage. The two couples cover a lot in this fun episode: when they get the ick about something their spouse does, things they wish they had known before they were married, praying for their spouse, how they like to bring each other joy, and how each has learned to best support the other when going through hard times.
