It took alcohol 200 years to go from scientific discovery to industrial revolution, but tech innovator Xu Hao says we can't afford to wait that long to tackle the climate crisis. He explores why most climate solutions are still stuck in labs — despite breakthrough science that can turn planet-warming CO2 into everyday products like toothpaste, water bottles and smartphone components — and explains what it will take for a clean future to arrive sooner than we think.TED Talks Daily is nominated for the Signal Award for Best Conversation Starter Podcast.

The Patriotically Correct Radio Show with Stew Peters | #PCRadio
Brian Ference exposes how Israel whacked Charlie Kirk for ditching their Greater Israel scam, using fake Christian tech fronts to geofence and spy on TPUSA patriots. These synagogue of Satan operatives are tracking your phones, pumping pro-Israel psyops into your feeds, and building AI dossiers to control us all—it's time to wake up and fight back! The Jews and Israel silenced Charlie Kirk for daring to break free from their stranglehold on America. We're exposing their blood soaked plot to keep our nation under their thumb! American citizens, including Christian Palestinian-American Huwaida Arraf, are being kidnapped and tortured by Israel's military for daring to bring aid to Gaza, and our so-called leaders don't bat an eye. We're blowing the lid off this treasonous silence. Western civilization has been infected by a parasitic invasion of foreign ideals and values that have been introduced into our culture by strange and morally degenerate people whose goal is world domination.

This week on The Abundance Mindset, Vinney Smile Chopra and Gualter Amarelo explore the deeper side of success — the inner game that separates the truly wealthy from the merely ambitious. With humor, humility, and real-world experience, they reveal the daily habits and mindset shifts that shape powerful investors, leaders, and entrepreneurs. Vinney shares timeless lessons from decades of building relationships and raising capital, while Gualter adds sharp insights from mentoring hundreds of investors through Alchemist Nation. Together, they dive into:
Do you ever start something with fire and excitement — a new business, a fitness plan, a book, a podcast — only to lose steam a few weeks in? You're not alone. Most people hit that wall, and when they do, they let emotions take the wheel. They quit. And yet, here's the truth: quitters never win, and winners never quit.In this episode, we're tackling one of the biggest reasons people fail to follow through — their feelings. We'll talk about why emotions are often the enemy of progress, how to push past them, and the daily habits and mindsets that will keep you showing up long after motivation fades.
Today, I interview Catherine G. Lucas who opens up about losing her voice in the midst of a painful breakdown. In her late teens she was already standing on stage for public speaking competitions, but by the time her parents divorced during her university years, the weight of family wounds caught up with her. Instead of enjoying summer with friends, she found herself in an acute psychiatric ward, her world shattered and her voice silenced.Her breakthrough came much later, when she discovered that what had been called a breakdown could also be seen as an awakening. It took years of reframing and deep inner work to see her experience not as illness, but as a turning point with the potential for healing.Through mindfulness, patient advocacy, and writing her first book, In Case of Spiritual Emergency, Catherine began to speak from her whole self rather than hide in shame. Today she helps others step into their deeper calling, showing that finding your voice is not about perfection but about expressing the truth of who you are in a way that heals and uplifts.__________________Catherine G. Lucas is the author of four books on how to move successfully through crisis and harness the transformational power it holds. A former university professor, Catherine left her academic career behind to step into her soul's deeper calling, following a profound crisis of awakening.She went on to set up a UK charity and now helps people step into their deeper calling. Her media appearances include BBC Radio 4 and TimeWarner TV, and she regularly speaks internationally. More recently, Catherine has convened the highly acclaimed Birth the New Earth summit.__________________Find Catherine here:https://www.youtube.com/user/CatherineGLucashttps://www.catherine-g-lucas.com/https://www.co-creatingourfuture.world/https://www.co-creatingourfuture.world/free-gift-download/Support the showI'm Dr. Doreen Downing and I help people find their voice so they can speak without fear.

I've been thinking about frustration lately. Specifically about a class I took where the experience didn't match what was advertised. I tried to address it in different ways, but my concerns never seemed to land. At some point, I realized part of my frustration came from wanting more control than I actually had, and from expectations that were probably too rigid. That shift in perspective helped. On this Wise Walk, I want to explore what happens when our expectations clash with reality, and how we can extract value from those moments anyway. Instead of staying in disappointment, we can examine what the situation reveals, let go of what we can't influence, and work with what's actually available to us. The more we do this, the more capable we become at adapting and refocusing on what genuinely matters. Have you felt frustrated by anything recently, and when you gave yourself space to process that emotion what did you learn about yourself in the process? Is there a quality or pattern tied to that frustration, and can you redirect that energy in a way that shifts the experience or even the outcome? When you look back at present or past frustrations, what awareness is that feeling trying to bring forward about what truly matters to you? After doing everything you could to communicate or realign with someone else, how can you adjust your expectations around what you can and cannot control? What is it that you ultimately want to experience in this situation, and where can you release the heavy or negative feelings that are weighing you down? Where can you pause and say to yourself, this is what I'm learning about who I am, and this is how I'm going to respond so I can stay in my stride? When frustration sparks that immediate knee-jerk reaction, what is the deeper feeling underneath it? How do you usually respond, and how can you pivot your energy so you feel more aligned and at peace? What lessons have surfaced for you when things didn't go the way you expected, and how did those moments shape your confidence to move forward? How do you balance holding high expectations with extending grace when outcomes fall short of what you envisioned? Where in your life right now can you practice letting go of control and trusting that you can still grow even if the circumstances aren't ideal? How can you turn an unexpected setback, like a delay or disruption, into an opportunity to practice patience and creativity in the way you respond? What helps you remember that every experience, even frustrating ones, can still offer something valuable if you're open to seeing it? I'd love to hear what you took away from today's episode. Feel free to reach out and share your Wise Walk reflections, awareness, and lessons you're gaining. If you found value here, please share this episode or leave a review so we can continue to grow together and expand this community that I'm so proud to be a part of. I look forward to going on another Wise Walk with you next Thursday, so be sure to tune in. In this episode: [03:01] At different times in my career I've led and managed training programs. I geek out on learning so that I can teach what I learn. [04:07] As this current class is drawing to a close, I realized that we are way behind and we are not going to accomplish all the learning objectives. I tried to communicate this to the best of my ability, but I'm not sure I was heard in an actionable way. [06:12] I realized that I'm just going to have to accept this. I also realized that I might have some control issues when it comes to key learning objectives not being met. [07:17] On a human level, I enjoy the teacher and really appreciate the people. [08:17] Frustration for me can sometimes indicate a level of control. I have to ask if there's an opportunity for me to learn something different. [09:12] Even if you communicate, it may not influence the person you're speaking with. [12:09] I'm also preparing to go back to St. Augustine for a week. I just got a notification that my flight has been changed to include a four and a half hour layover. [14:04] I had an awareness that I can only control what I can control. Fortunately, I was able to book a different flight. [15:20] Knowing what our triggers are and how to pivot through them can bring us at peace again and build confidence. [16:09] Maybe I'm learning to find my center and feel grounded regardless of the circumstance. I'm speaking up for myself and making the best of the situation. Memorable Quotes: “I can only control what I can control, and I have to let the rest go if I still want to salvage the best I can out of this experience.” - Mary Tess “The more we face adversity, the more we build the muscle to realign and get back into stride.” - Mary Tess “I always regret being silent more than I regret communicating.” - Mary Tess Links and Resources: Mary Tess Rooney Email Heart Value Facebook | LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram

Send us a textMicromanagement can't fix burnout, noise, or fragmented teams—and perks won't, either. We sat down with inclusive leadership expert Kelli Lester to show how clear vision, better questions, and real follow‑through unlock performance across stressed, remote, multi‑gen workplaces. From aligning on what “empowerment” actually means to closing the loop on engagement data, we unpack specific plays you can run this week to build trust and ship results.We start by reframing the manager's job: know your people as individuals, not personas. Kelli shares practical ways to discover what motivates each person—recognition, time, money, learning—and how those drivers shift with life stage. We dig into remote realities where new hires change team chemistry and “breaking bread” moments are rare, then map out rituals that create connection on purpose: pre‑reads for introverts, rotating facilitation, designed in‑person time, and consistent one‑on‑ones that end with clear commitments. We also tackle proximity bias and why visibility must be engineered, not left to chance.The heart of the episode is a simple engine: ask, define, decide, and deliver. Ask better questions than generic surveys. Define shared terms like respect and empowerment so expectations are aligned. Decide on actions that leverage strengths as much as they fix gaps. Deliver by closing the loop—communicate what you heard, what you'll do, and what won't change. Along the way, Kelly explains why self‑awareness is the top leadership skill, how to amplify quieter voices without putting them on the spot, and how pairing diverse thinkers produces stronger decisions and faster execution.If you're building fast and want your culture to compound, this conversation is your blueprint—practical, human, and immediately usable. Subscribe for more bold, unfiltered strategies, share this with someone scaling a team, and tell us: what does empowerment look like for you right now?

Hustle culture nearly destroyed my health, my marriage, and my ability to be present for my daughters. In this deeply personal episode, I share why I stopped glorifying the grind and learned that working smarter not harder is the real path to sustainable success. From leaving Deloitte to build BudgetDog while caring for my daughter with Dravet syndrome, to discovering toxic mold that threatened our entire family's health, this is the raw truth about what endless hustle really costs. I'll walk you through the moments that forced me to choose between proving my worth through output and actually being present for what matters. Episode Timeline & Highlights [0:00] - Why hustle culture almost broke me [1:04] - The Big Four grind: Last man standing from my starting class [2:31] - Building a business from scratch isn't what Instagram tells you [3:44] - The moment everything changed: Logan's first seizure at 5 months [6:46] - October 2022: Turning the car around in a Michigan snowstorm [11:17] - The diagnosis that explained everything: Mold mycotoxins [14:19] - $300,000 gone in two months—and why we had to leave everything behind [20:04] - Dallas ice storm: Heart rate of 203 and another house rejection [23:13] - The health markers that scared us straight [29:10] - Making $1 million sitting by the pool vs. hundreds of thousands in a cubicle [32:34] - My new operating model: High-intensity spurts, not endless hustle [34:56] - Setting boundaries that actually stick Key Takeaways 1. Seasons of sacrifice are necessary staying there forever is dangerous - There's a time to grind, but knowing when to stop is what separates success from self-destruction 2. Your biggest breakthroughs come from rest, not burnout - The most strategic moves happen when you step back and think, not when you're drowning in details 3. Health markers don't lie - When your cortisol is shot and your testosterone drops, your body is telling you something the hustle bros won't Quotables "I made $1 million sitting at a pool. I made a couple hundred thousand sitting in a cubicle at Deloitte." "You can run on the treadmill to get in shape, but if you run on it forever, you're going to fall off and hurt yourself."

It's happened. Candace Owens has finally released the text messages from a group chat that proves something about Charlie Kirk and Israel maybe. Rolling Stone has drawn attention to the fact that the “Manosphere” influencers aren't into Trump anymore. Let's check in on that. Barstool Sports' KFC has been outed to The Bulwark as being entirely made up of liberals. We should have suspected something when we noticed that they couldn't meme… Finally, a bunch of American comedians went to Riyadh to perform. Because nothing says hilarious like Saudi Arabia.

Master Your Midlife Hormones In Less Than 90 Days. Apply To Work With Me: bit.ly/fixmyhormonesnow Studies show women spend an average of four years dismissing perimenopause symptoms before realizing what's actually going on. Four years!!! That's 1,460 days of sleepless nights, sweating through your pajamas, and snapping at your partner, your kids, even the dog—because you don't know what you don't know, and no one (especially your doctor) is talking about “hormones.” In today's episode, I'm peeling back the curtain on the 5 symptoms I ignored at age 40 that came back to bite me in perimenopause—and why you can't afford to. In this episode, we‘ll address your most commonly asked questions, including ✅ What are the first signs that perimenopause has started? ✅ What happens to your hormones during perimenopause? ✅ Why am I getting acne in my 40s? ✅ Why has my period suddenly become heavier or more irregular? ✅ Can the birth control pill help my perimenopause symptoms? ✅ Why is my PMS getting worse? ✅ Why do I wake up sweating at 2 a.m.? ✅ Why can't I remember simple words anymore?

What if your brand wasn't just about marketing, but about rethinking every single touchpoint your customer experiences? That's the approach Michael Jacobson took when he bought his uncle's struggling flower shop. Today, French Florist has grown from the brink of closure to Los Angeles' largest flower shop, generating over $9 million in revenue and expanding nationally through franchising. Under Michael's leadership, the brand is reshaping what it means to buy flowers, making everyday moments feel like luxury experiences. Make Operations Part of Your Brand Your brand promise is only as strong as the systems behind it. Michael shares how upgrading outdated tools and building a custom operating system didn't just cut costs. It made every step of the customer journey smoother and more consistent. The takeaway? If you want to deliver a premium experience, start by fixing the pain points your customers feel most, even if the solution is behind the scenes. Let Values Guide Every Decision It's easy to write core values and never put them into practice. French Florist takes the opposite approach, using the acronym LOVE (Love what you do, Own your impact, Value connection, Exceed expectations) as a daily filter for hiring, franchising, and customer touchpoints. The result is a thriving brand that feels consistent and authentic at every level. Ask yourself: do your customers feel your values in action, or only see them on your website? Enjoy this episode with Michael Jacobson… Soundbytes 22:26 - 22:40 “I don't know how many people actually live and breathe by [their company values]. Our company really does. We integrate it very deeply into the blood and DNA of our culture. Every decision we make follows that framework. We ask ourselves, if we're making big decisions, do they hit the core values.” 33:24 - 33:39 “If you can take the average person, on the average day, who has the average work ethic, with the average intellect, and build a system that can produce above average results, then that's a franchisable business.” Quotes “Business is tough. Nobody said it was going to be easy.” “We want to actually contribute real value to the world as an entrepreneur.” “If we can make this world 1% better, that's a worthy mission.” Links mentioned in this episode: From Our Guest Website: https://www.frenchflorist.com/ Connect with Michael Jacobson on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelrichardjacobson/ Connect with brandiD Find out how top leaders are increasing their authority, impact, and income online.

Big budgets and star power don't guarantee success. Sometimes it takes time, refinement, and the right story to win an audience.That's the journey of The Gilded Age, the HBO drama that overcame early skepticism to become a hit. In this episode, we dig into its marketing parallels with the help of our special guest Laura Goldberg, Chief Marketing Officer at Auctane.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from practicing patience, locking in product-market fit, and doubling down when momentum builds to gain lasting growth.About our guest, Laura GoldbergLaura Goldberg is the Chief Marketing Officer at Auctane. She is a seasoned, operations-driven go-to-market executive with a proven track record of propelling software companies to new heights, particularly serving small and medium sized businesses (SMBs), a vital segment for Auctane. Goldberg excels in crafting data-driven marketing strategies that resonate with customer needs, and her expertise will be key in advancing Auctane's mission to deliver exceptional shipping and mailing experiences to businesses worldwide.Previously, Laura was the CMO at Constant Contact, a digital marketing platform trusted by millions of small businesses and nonprofits. She has also held marketing leadership positions at Kabbage, an American Express Company, and LegalZoom, where she played key roles in driving customer growth, revenue expansion, and EBITDA improvements, leading to successful exits for both companies.What B2B Companies Can Learn From The Gilded Age:Patience is essential. The Gilded Age wasn't an overnight success—it built momentum slowly, and Laura sees the same in B2B marketing. “You gotta have patience. You gotta see it more than once. It has to build. You may not, be a… hot [thing] out of the gate. But… it's gonna build. Nobody makes a decision… with The Gilded Age, it's, you know, a solid hour and you gotta pay attention. Like you have to make a commitment to it and it takes time.” Marketing results rarely happen instantly. Success comes from committing, nurturing, and allowing campaigns to grow into traction over time.Product-market fit is non-negotiable. The show's elaborate sets and costumes bought it some time, but what kept audiences hooked was stronger storytelling in later seasons. Laura draws a clear B2B parallel: “You may have some stumbles outta the gate… You gotta deliver the goods. The product market fit, if you will, has to be there eventually. It doesn't have to be perfect right outta the gate, but it has to get to perfect pretty quickly.” In other words: creative campaigns and strong distribution will only get you so far—if the product doesn't ultimately deliver, marketing can't save itLean in when you gain traction. Once The Gilded Age started buzzing online, the promotion amplified everywhere. Laura says the same is true for B2B: “Once you get traction, lean in. When I tell you that my socials, everything I see is talking about this show… I see Mr. Russell in his flower suit all over the internet. By the way, I think it's an interview from two years ago that I keep seeing. So recycle all that stuff. But like once you feel that traction gripping, lean in, like repeat, be on everything. Repost, retweet… you have to lean in when you're doing well and really get that momentum.” Marketers should maximize momentum, recycle strong content, and make sure their presence is unavoidable when the audience is paying attention.Quote“ Customer, customer, customer. I feel like too many times it's really easy to talk about why your product's great and what it does… but you really have to frame it in the, what are you doing for me and me being the customer. How am I making things faster, cheaper, better for your end customer with what we're doing, and making sure that you're not just yelling features and functionality at people.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Laura Goldberg, Chief Marketing Officer at Auctane[01:14] Why The Gilded Age?[02:57] The Role of CMO at Auctane[09:50] What is The Gilded Age?[26:28] The Craft of Period Pieces[29:19] B2B Marketing Lessons from The Gilded Age[31:43] Laura's Marketing Strategy as a CMO[37:25] Winning Across Channels[49:35] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Laura on LinkedInLearn more about AuctaneAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

This investor turned a $25,000 rental property (yes, you read that right) into a real estate portfolio producing $5,000/month in actual cash flow. He had no experience, lived in a small town many would write off, and was working 60 hours a week. But small towns mean less competition and lower prices, and Dustin Cardenas was ready to take advantage. Seven years later, he's financially free thanks to his small rental portfolio! Dustin's small town of 30,000 people is located in one of the most affordable parts of the country. Houses routinely sell for $30,000 to $50,000, a down payment for many investors across the US. He's what you'd call an “everyman”—he's worked in pest control, as a car salesman, and in a juvenile detention facility. In other words, he had no silver spoon. When a local investor in town told him, “You can do this,” he took the chance. Now, seven years later, he's got 20 rental units, left his full-time position at work, and is making a life-changing amount of rental income. These affordable, cash-flowing towns exist throughout the US, and like Dustin, you could use them to reach financial freedom! In This Episode We Cover The uber-affordable small Midwest towns where rentals are less than $50,000 The perfect starter real estate investment Dustin used to scale fast Why you must ask your bank for a line of credit if you're ready to invest more Dustin's tips to save money on your next rental renovation (huge savings!) Better than Airbnb? Why Dustin ditched his short-term rental and makes phenomenal cash flow with this strategy And So Much More!

In this episode we meet Lori, a 68-year-old woman who spent her formative years as a member of Jehovah's Witnesses. Her family was converted when she was five, immediately thrusting her into a high-control environment that abruptly ended a normal childhood. From the outset, Lori harbored an innate skepticism towards the group's doctrines, which manifested as a lifelong, escalating resistance to its demands. Her narrative details significant psychological and emotional abuse, including a cold and detached home life, constant threats of divine annihilation (Armageddon), and severe punishments for non-compliance. Faced with an ultimatum at age 18, Lori strategically executed a pre-planned departure, an event she describes as a profound liberation. The subsequent decades involved a difficult but ultimately successful journey of recovery, overcoming relationship challenges, severe health crises, and periods of deep despair to build a life defined by freedom, authentic connection, and the breaking of a multi-generational cycle of family trauma.

“There is no stagnancy in a supply relationship. Continuous improvement is the basis for that.” - Neji Issac, Global Category Manager, NOVA Chemicals Procurement often measures success in cost savings and contract terms, but today's business environment demands more. As supplier markets consolidate and customer needs shift, procurement leaders must find new ways to bring value to the business, especially in categories that seem stagnant or constrained. In this Art of Procurement podcast episode, Neji Issac, Global Category Manager at NOVA Chemicals, shares a real-world case study that pushed the boundaries of traditional supplier relationships. Drawing on his global experience and recent doctoral research, Neji explains how identifying overlooked opportunities and challenging old assumptions can unlock efficiency and drive unexpected value. Whether you're facing a “take-it-or-leave-it” supplier market or searching for fresh levers to pull, Neji offers pragmatic strategies to reflect on. In this episode, Neji discusses: Rethinking supplier relationships in long-standing, strategic categories How to recognize and act on cultural and regional differences in supply approaches Turning overlooked assets (like spare land) into value-adding levers Why the “we win” approach beats traditional win-win thinking Ways to uncover what truly matters to your suppliers Links: Neji Isaac on LinkedIn Subscribe to This Week in Procurement Subscribe to Art of Procurement on YouTube
