The Bible does not contain a specific book on "business" or "entrepreneurship" as modern concepts, but it offers numerous principles regarding work, wealth, diligence, and ethical conduct that are highly relevant to both. Here are the key biblical principles applied to business and entrepreneurship: 1. Work and Diligence are Commended The Bible encourages hard work and warns against laziness. This principle is fundamental to a successful venture. Diligence brings reward: "Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth." (Proverbs 10:4). Diligent hands: active, eager, willing to try anything….. When I first got online and saw the possibilities I figure out something pretty quick. Not every youth pastor had my creative skill and writing lessons for youth. I was already a regular contributor/writer for YouthWorker Journal - So I would put together these really good power point lessons with great applications. Then I sold them online… and guess what - people bought them! To pay my bills I have lots of skills and I will try anything. I have taught guitar, drums, I am a personal trainer. But all these things fit within my calendar. I can't take on another hourly, full time job - I am still and first a pastor. So Diligent hands seek what works best for each person. Just today I hit up a woman who has a unique skill for other women- I can't give to much away just yet. But she absolutely loved my idea and wants to come on board. We will typically work with about 25 women for one night a week and make a few thousand dollars. Diligence - try anything and if you fail - keep trying. YESTERDAY SOMEONE ASKED… Hey you said a $1000 bucks a week… how could you do that with just Uber… well my thought (and I did not explain it fully- sorry) is between uber, teach a lesson, sell something a $1000 a week is easy. Hey first and foremost - you better have a budget and stick to it! Or you will never have enough money! Purposeful work: The creation narrative and later writings present work as a good, God-given activity (Genesis 2:15, Colossians 3:23-24). Work is seen as service, not just to people, but ultimately to the Lord…. Maybe you are asking the wrong question… maybe you should ask God what can I do to add value to your kingdom and get paid at the same time. A great friend of mine teaches martial arts/self protection… but he is also a strong believer. He gets paid well, has a strong client list, but uses this opportunity to share Christ all the time. It is a win win. 2. Stewardship and Investment The concept of stewardship is central, suggesting that everything a person possesses—time, talent, and treasure—ultimately belongs to God and should be managed wisely… here is an idea, managing our time also means charging for our time. Listen I have a ton of people that would call me a friend - many times they want me to teach or train them for free because I am a friend and on top of that a pastor. Here is one simple rule I let them in on all the time. I have to charge my friends because my enemies won't do business with me. I say it in a fun loving way, but it gets the point across. The Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-30): This parable is often cited as a direct encouragement for enterprise and investment. The master praises the servants who invested their money and produced a profit, while rebuking the one who buried his talent out of fear. This emphasizes the expectation of using resources (gifts, skills, capital, talents) productively, taking calculated risks, and seeking growth… is a God thing. It is a value to our maker. The lazy servant is called wicked. He acted in fear… fear kept him from seeing his investments take off. FEAR will stop 95% of all people who have ideas to make extra money… but if you are lazy fear is a great excuse to fall back on. I will forever nag my friend for not acting on his stupid idea… it was Uber, but he never acted on it… FEAR! Prudence and Planning: "For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and calculate the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?" (Luke 14:28). This speaks to the need for careful planning, foresight, and sound financial management in business… most buisinesses fail due to lack of financial backing and a lack of planning. I used to have the #1 powerlifting gym in the country. Now I have a nice small personal training gym. It has everything I need…in time I will open another gym for body soul and spirit. But until then I just keep planning, picking up equipment that is a steal… and when the time is right - Boom I will act. But I will no longer rush into things!

Aubrey Janick was stuck with a Jeep she didn't like. When a friend mentioned renting his car on Turo, she listed it that same night. That impulse decision grew into a massive car-sharing business with a 34-vehicle, self-funded fleet that now generates up to $40,000 a month in revenue.What started as a side hustle became a lesson in smart asset acquisition. Aubrey mastered sourcing cars from Facebook Marketplace with a simple but brilliant strategy: buying reliable, depreciated vehicles below market value. This approach minimized risk and maximized profit on each rental, allowing her to rapidly expand her portfolio from one car to dozens.In this interview, Aubrey joins Ryan Atkinson to break down her entire business model. She reveals her checklist for buying profitable used cars, the specific models that generate the highest returns, and her system for managing a large fleet. This episode provides a clear roadmap to generating serious passive income through car sharing.Takeaways:- Act quickly to avoid "analysis paralysis." The guest listed her first car the same night she heard the idea, emphasizing that taking immediate action is crucial.- The most important strategy is to buy cars below market value that have already hit their depreciation floor. This minimizes financial risk and can even lead to a profit if the car is totaled.- You can source an entire fleet of vehicles from Facebook Marketplace. This allows you to find deals and scale without relying on traditional dealerships.- Don't rent out a personal vehicle you're emotionally attached to. Treat the cars purely as business assets and be prepared for wear, tear, and damage.- Reliable, low-maintenance brands like Toyota and specific Hyundai models offer the best value. Certain Hyundais, like the Elantra GT, have a lifetime engine warranty, making them a particularly smart buy.- A single car can generate significant revenue, with good cash cars earning $900-$1300 a month and higher-end models earning up to $2,100 a month.- The business is highly scalable. The guest grew her fleet from one car to 34, turning a side hustle into a full-time business generating up to $40,000 a month.- The barrier to entry is low. The guest's second car was purchased for under $3,000 in cash, funded by profits from the first car and personal savings.- Strictly follow the platform's Terms of Service. This is your primary protection against liability and financial loss in case of an accident.- Total losses are a predictable part of the business. By purchasing cars correctly (below market value), you can be financially covered or even profit from an insurance payoutTags: Side Hustle, Entrepreneurship, Passive Income, Flipping Cars, Car Sharing, Turo, Facebook MarketplaceResources:Grow your business today: https://links.upflip.com/the-business-startup-and-growth-blueprint-podcastConnect with Aubrey: https://www.youtube.com/c/AubreyJanik
In this fast-paced chat, Joey shares how he and his partner built more than $50K/month in passive income by pairing the Infinite Banking Concept with the right income vehicles for their personalities—think land flipping, short-term rentals, Turo fleets, content sites, private lending, and more. We dig into why “traditional retirement” can feel like a financial prison, how most investors unknowingly park cash in money traps (401(k)s/IRAs/extra debt paydown) that don't produce cash flow today, and how to redirect hidden capital into assets that actually move you toward freedom. Joey also explains “Investor DNA”—matching strategies to who you are—so you stop forcing deals that don't fit and start scaling what does. - Get Interviewed on the Show! - ================================== Are you a real estate investor with some 'tales from the trenches' you'd like to share with our audience?

Send us a textHi, it's Turo here. In this episode, I'm diving into something a little different: how culture shapes the way we eat, move, and think about health.Growing up in Finland, meals were quick, functional, and often tied to rules and restriction. Now living in Italy, I've experienced the complete opposite—meals as social events, daily movement built into life, and a guilt-free approach to enjoying food.I'll share the biggest lessons I've learned from both cultures, from how Italians stay active without “working out,” to why their relationship with pasta looks nothing like the diet culture mindset in Northern Europe.If you've ever struggled with guilt around food or felt like exercise was just a box to check, this episode will give you a fresh perspective on how to build sustainable, balanced habits—no matter where you live.
We would love to hear your feedback!EP 266 News LinksEver wondered what happens when a gig worker has to jump a fence during an Amazon delivery? Or how Nashville became home to some of the highest airport rideshare fees in America? The Gig Economy Podcast dives deep into these stories and more as we explore the increasingly chaotic landscape facing today's drivers.When Nashville International Airport implemented a combined $12 round-trip surcharge for rideshare vehicles while simultaneously forcing drivers to use confusing parking garage drop-offs instead of terminal curbsides, it highlighted the growing tension between traditional services and the gig economy. Meanwhile, autonomous vehicles continue their march into mainstream transportation, with Tesla expanding its robo-taxi service from Austin to California's Bay Area—though their boast of 7,000 miles without incidents drew chuckles from hosts who regularly exceed that distance in mere months of driving.The darker side of the gig economy emerges in shocking incidents captured on video: a rideshare driver with a fake license physically assaulting a CEO over his service dog, a DoorDash driver confronted by a nude customer, and a pedestrian violently attacking a Waymo autonomous vehicle. These stories illuminate the very real safety concerns facing both human and robotic participants in today's transportation ecosystem.From Uber's surprising partnership with Turo allowing in-app car rentals to Walmart Spark's changing delivery structure, we examine how companies continue shifting their business models—often at drivers' expense. We also provide practical insight on how canceling rides affects passenger ratings (it doesn't!) and share our experiences with app algorithms and promotional opportunities that vary wildly between markets.Whether you're a full-time gig worker, occasional driver, or just fascinated by this rapidly evolving industry, our no-nonsense conversation provides both entertainment and essential information to navigate today's complex gig economy landscape.

A myth-busting interview: Cloud seeding with Chief Meteorologist Kenny Miller. Would you feel comfortable renting someone's personal vehicle? I share my Turo experience, and how livestock producers are rocking music to fight off wolves Season 5, Episode 250 Interview With Meteorologist Kenny Miller: The Truth About Cloud Seeding & Cloud Modifications We've heard people blame cloud seeding for everything from droughts to flooding via social media. Now it was time to break down Cloud Seeding: What Is It, and What Does It Do? First, What Is Cloud Seeding, Really? Meet KX News Chief Meteorologist Kenny Miller, who explained cloud seeding as a weather modification method that encourages rainfall or can reduce hail size by introducing silver iodide into storm clouds. The thought process is to help increase moisture to avoid drought by squeezing just a little bit more rain from smaller rain cloud systems. North Dakota Cloud Modification Project Cloud Seeding or Could Modification began in North Dakota in 1962, and is considered the longest running project in the United States. According to Miller, injecting the clouds in a drought scenario has the possibility of taking a 1" rainfall total to 1.10" or in a hail threat situation a 2" hail stone could be reduced to a 1" size for example. Reference: https://www.kxnet.com/news/local-news/cloud-seeding-what-is-it-and-what-does-it-do/ Debunking the Common Myths Myth: It steals rain from other areas. → Nope. Clouds either rain or they don't—seeding just improves efficiency. Myth: It causes droughts. → False. There's no evidence linking seeding to large-scale climate effects. Myth: It's some secret government program. → Also false. It's publicly funded and reported in local communities. Why Turo Made Me Ditch the Traditional Rental Car Hassle Let's be honest—traditional rental car agencies feel like mini DMVs. You land after a long flight, stand in line for 45 minutes, only to find out they “ran out of mid-size cars.” Sound familiar? Transparent Pricing, No Games No counter. No clipboard. No upcharges for floor mats. Turo.com Unlike big agencies, there were no surprise fuel policies, upgrade pitches, or fees for returning early. I chose the exact car I wanted, paid upfront, and had the option for full insurance through the app. Stress-free and cheaper. **REMEMBER: ALWAYS check with your own Auto Insurance Policy Agent as to what your coverage is when it comes to renting ANY vehicles. In my most recent Turo.com rental experience, the All-Star Host delivered said vehicle On-Time and made Drop-Off super easy!! The vehicle owner even gave our party a free ride to the airport that saves us another $20+ Uber ride! My Review on Turo.com: Rebecca W. • August 7, 2025 Awesome!! Clean, on-time. Dropped off the car off with easy meet up directions at the casino we were staying. AND then met us at the end of our rental, offering to drive us to the airport!!! Will absolutely rent from again! AC/DC Blasts Away Wolf Attacks on U.S. Cattle Ranches & Farms In an unexpected twist, American cattle ranchers and farmers are using music from rock legends AC/DC to protect their herds from gray wolf attacks. Since the reintroduction of gray wolves in 1995, their populations have thrived, but their return has also led to a rise in cattle deaths across several states. To combat this, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has been using drones equipped with speakers to play AC/DC hits like “Thunderstruck” and “Blue on Black,” alongside movie clips to drive wolves away from livestock. The drones are fitted with heat-seeking cameras to track wolves at night, and the loud sounds effectively disperse the predators. The technique has proven successful, reducing attacks in areas like southwestern Oregon, where wolf attacks dropped from nearly one every other night to less than one a month. Despite these efforts, however, wolf attacks on livestock continue, with dozens of cattle killed in states like California, Washington, and Colorado like we just mentioned. In California, 27 calves were killed in just two months earlier this year, costing ranchers millions of dollars in lost livestock and state reimbursements. Livestock producers are increasingly concerned that their livelihoods are under threat, especially as federal protections for wolves remain in place, limiting the ability to control their numbers. As a result, some lawmakers are pushing to remove the gray wolf from the endangered species list, giving states more authority to manage wolf populations and protect agriculture. With the stakes higher than ever, farmers and ranchers are calling for real solutions that protect their herds and their way of life. After all, protecting livestock is not just about economics—it's about ensuring the survival of a centuries-old way of life that feeds and sustains communities across the nation. Reference: https://ca.news.yahoo.com/hells-bells-america-cattle-farms-183321858.html Colorado Plans to Kill Additional Wolf After Cattle Deaths We've been following stories of how landowners and livestock producers are being impacted by the ever increasing wolf pack relocations and reintroductions in some areas of the country. According to CPR News, the Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) is set to kill at least one more wolf from the Copper Creek Pack in Pitkin County after a calf was killed by the pack near Aspen in July. This follows a string of attacks on livestock, including eight confirmed kills in the area since the pack's relocation last winter. Wildlife officials confirmed the calf's death as a wolf kill on July 18, noting evidence that wolves had injured the animal before it died. Despite several attempts to locate the wolves, CPW staff have faced challenges due to difficult terrain. The decision to kill another wolf is part of ongoing efforts to manage the Copper Creek Pack, which was reintroduced into Colorado in late 2023. This pack has been problematic, causing continued damage to local ranchers despite the agency's attempts to manage them, including removing a young male wolf in May. Ranchers like Tom Harrington say the only solution may be relocating or lethally removing the entire pack.

No hay duda: El Renault 5 es un mito. Y a ello ha colaborado su estética muy innovadora en su momento, su fiabilidad, su confort… y sus éxitos en competición. En particular en los rallyes, donde sus modelos de dos ruedas delanteras motrices ya destacaron, pero con la llegada del Turbo, llegaron victorias y títulos. #coches #renault #motorsport Renault, en mi opinión, ha hecho bien dos cosas, con el R5 y en general. Apostar por la competición para mejorar sus productos y su imagen. Y elegir pilotos no solo muy competentes, sino, además, muy carismáticos. Es este caso hay que destacar a Bruno Saby, Guy Fréquelin, especialmente al malabarista Jean Ragnotti, y a nuestro Carlos Sainz. Todos ellos brillaron a los mandos de diversos R5. Antes de entrar a hablar del “curriculum” del R5 en los rallyes, ya sabéis que Renault ha reeditado este modelo en versión eléctrica… os adelanto que lo probaremos a fondo durante un mes y os contaremos nuestras sensaciones y conclusiones. Conviértete en miembro de este canal para disfrutar de ventajas: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBG3pvXhocK7_GjeIx2sUeg/join El R5 aparece en 1972 y se puede decir que su éxito es inmediato. En Francia se puede decir que arrollador, pues entre 1974 y 1983 fue el coche más vendido… increíble. A pesar de la modestia de su mecánica inicial, a pesar de no ser en realidad más que un R-4 con una bonita carrocería obra de Michel Boué, desde siempre el R5 quiso tener una cierta vocación deportiva. No olvidemos que en esos años Renault a finales de los 70, Renault vence en Le Mans, lo hemos contado recientemente en el video titulado “Renault gana a Porsche … y tu coche lleva turbo”, y apostaba por la F1… Pero tanto los prototipos de Le Mans como la F1 se disputan con coches cuya estética queda lejos de los coches de calles que el cliente puede comprar. En cambio, en los Rallyes se corre con coches que los espectadores pueden identificar con el suyo o que el que pueden comprar… Y Renault decide competir también en rallyes. En 1977 participan en el San Remo con el R5 Alpine, aún sin turbo, donde obtienen un prometedor séptimo puesto… y deciden acudir la primer rallyes de 1978: El Montecarlo. En esa edición del rallye de Montecarlo el equipo Fiat y Lancia presentaba una armada potentísima. Frente a toda esa escuadra italiana se oponía el Porche 911 de Jean-Pierre Nicolás, que era del equipo privado de los hermanos Almeras y los dos Renault 5 oficiales, de apenas unos 130 CV, pilotados por Guy Fréquelin y Jean Ragnotti. Esperaba un duelo entre Fiat y Lancia cuando de repente que encontré con un amigo mío que no sé cómo se había enterado y me dijo: Los R5 van segundo y tercero en el Montecarlo… honestamente no me lo creí. ¡Bendita nieve! Porque ese año nevó mucho en Montecarlo y sobre la nieve a los Fiat 131 les faltaba motricidad, ya sabéis motor delantero y propulsión trasera, y a los Lancia Stratos les sobraban caballos y “mal carácter” … conducir un Stratos sobre la nieve debe ser algo mucho más que complicado. Por fin, en 1981, con el implacable Jean Ragnotti a sus mandos, el R5, en su variante Turbo de motor central, consigue su primera victoria.A pesar del Grupo B, a pesar del Audi Quattro, a pesar de toda una oleada de modelos del Grupo B, sobre todo el Peugeot 205 Turo 16, la mayoría con tracción total, el R5 consigue en su terreno predilecto, el asfalto del Tour de Corse, y con su piloto predilecto, Jean Ragnotti, vencer las ediciones de 1982 y de 1985. Se suele olvidar que la última victoria del R5 en el Mundial de rallyes no fue en el Tour de Corse, sino en la edición de 1986 del Rallye de Portugal… fatídica edición. El piloto portugués Joaquim Santos se salió del tramo con su Ford RS200 arrollando a una multitud de espectadores con un terrible resultado: Tres fallecidos. La retirada de muchos equipos, en señal de duelo, propicio la victoria de otro piloto portugués, Joaquim Moutinho al volante de un R5 Turbo privado.

In this discussion, Cristina Flaschen, CEO of Pandium, interviews Archna Carlstone, Head of Product at Carputty, about building, scaling, and evolving SaaS platforms, with a focus on Carputty's journey from an internal finance tool to a white-labeled SaaS product for partners and customers.Carputty's Origin and Product EvolutionCarputty was founded in October 2020, with Carlstone as an early team member, focusing on building both consumer-facing and internal tools.The company's flagship product, the Carputty Flexline, offers a line of credit for car purchases, underwriting consumers rather than vehicles, flipping the traditional dealership financing model.Initially, the platform was built to serve Carputty's own finance operations, but as the product matured, the team recognized broader industry pain points and began offering the platform as a white-labeled SaaS solution for other businesses.Transition to SaaS and White-LabelingThe decision to transition into SaaS was driven by market demand and the flexibility of being a startup, allowing Carputty to move quickly and adapt the platform for external partners.Early challenges included abstracting out company-specific features to make the platform scalable and universal, such as removing Carputty-specific labels and building a more modular, customizable system.The team implemented an abstraction layer for integrations (e.g., different banking providers) and a global design system to balance customization with maintainability for partners.Product Team Structure and Development ApproachCarputty's product and engineering teams operate in lean, cross-functional pods focused on core areas: consumer applications, transactions (asset management), and data.This structure supports focus, knowledge sharing, and agility as the company grows and adapts to new partner needs.Integrations and PartnershipsIntegrations are central to Carputty's strategy, with an API abstraction layer enabling flexibility in vendor selection and servicing partners.Carputty partners with various organizations, including banks and companies like Turo, offering tailored solutions based on partner requirements rather than a one-size-fits-all package.Core Values and Customer FocusCarputty's core values include being data-driven, tenacious, thinking big, empowerment, and transparency, with transparency being especially central.The company emphasizes transparency in financing, aiming to disrupt the traditional, opaque dealership model and empower consumers with clear information about rates and valuations.Advice for Product ManagersCarlstone advises product managers transitioning internal tools to external products to continually question scalability and universality, recognize and address internal biases, and be willing to push back on internal requests that do not align with long-term vision.She emphasizes the importance of admitting mistakes, iterating on architecture, and balancing speed with building a sustainable, scalable product.Closing ThoughtsThe discussion highlights the complexities of evolving a fintech product into a SaaS platform, the importance of abstraction and modularity, and the ongoing trade-offs between customization and product stability.Carputty's journey offers valuable lessons for teams considering a similar transition, particularly around organizational structure, integration strategy, and maintaining core values throughout growth.For more insights on tech partnerships, integrations, and APIs, listeners are encouraged to visit Pandium's blog and resources.

In this episode of Queerly Beloved, I'm joined by the multi-faceted Shelby Clark, a visionary entrepreneur, investor, embodiment facilitator, and founder of The Jungle Gayborhood, an LGBTQ+ focused retreat located center in the beautiful jungles of Costa Rica. You may remember me talking about the Gayborhood in my episode Healing the Father wound where I share about my magical time there attending a conscious kink retreat. Now you get to hear about it from the founder and director himself. In this interview we get to hear the story of how Shelby went from being a tech entrepreneur and founder of the groundbreaking billion-dollar car-sharing company Turo, to founding a queer retreat center in the jungle. And all the twists and turns on the way. Shelby vulnerably shares how, as a queer kid, he struggled to fully accept himself and found refuge in overachievement. Together, we unpack this familiar queer narrative of overcompensating to mask internalized shame, and explore how so many queer people, link their identity to achievement and people-pleasing, often at the cost of their own authentic selves.We then learn about all the influences for the Gayborhood including Esalen, Burning Man and radical fairy sanctuaries and then We explore why dedicated queer spaces like The Jungle Gayborhood offer uniquely medicine and create environments where radical authenticity can flourish free from societal expectations or limitations.Together, we unpack the transformative potential of psychedelics for queer healing, and I share some personal stories about my journey with that then Shelby shares insights from groundbreaking research recently facilitated at the Gayborhood.

No matter the industry or leadership level, the same question kept coming up:How do I communicate with people who just don't think like me?Like a marketing exec who pulled me aside and said:“How do I talk to accounting people? I'm flowery, and they're...not.”If you're working hard and ever struggled to getting your message across, and making sure something gets done catch this 18-minute episode, we break it down: Why talking to different personality types is like practicing a sport (or scrolling TikTok—consistency is key!)How a team dashboard can keep everyone on the same page (aka fewer “per my last email” moments)How AI can help you edit emails, texts, and messages so your message comes across to the other person based on their communication style and goalsResources Mentioned:More info on Conscious ConversationsEpisode 47.

This week we have guest David Hirschfield, a veteran software developer and AI expert, to discuss his career and insights on technology evolution. David shares his journey from studying physics to excelling in sales and eventually founding a successful software company, which he sold in 2000. He explains the rise and fall of IEF, a tool for enterprise software development in the late 80s and 90s, and how outdated systems still impact industries like car rentals today. The conversation shifts to modern innovations like AI and alternative rental models like Turo, which offers a more seamless customer experience. Number one tip: If you are a startup, trust yourself but don't believe in it. If you aren't sure how to speak to AI, ask it how you should use it.
