Summary: In this episode, Dr. Jeffery D. Skinner explores the often unspoken bias against small churches and their leaders within church systems. He discusses how visibility bias, resource limitations, and perception issues contribute to the marginalization of small church pastors. Dr. Skinner emphasizes the need to redefine leadership pipelines, highlight the stories of faithful leaders in small congregations, and revalue bivocational ministry as a model of engagement. He concludes by urging the church to honor faithfulness over size in leadership.TakeawaysSmall churches often lead to small leaders due to systemic biases.Pastors of larger churches are more visible and have more opportunities.Bivocational pastors face unique challenges that limit their visibility.The church must redefine leadership pipelines to include small church pastors.Faithfulness, innovation, and spiritual depth should be prioritized over attendance numbers.Stories of small church pastors doing impactful work need to be told.Bivocational ministry can be a model of community engagement.God values faithfulness over numerical success in leadership.The church must stop equating leadership with the size of the congregation.Every leader, regardless of church size, has a role in God's kingdom.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/echoes-through-eternity-with-dr-jeffery-skinner--5523198/support.Echoes Through Eternity Guiding church planters and pastors to plant seeds of prayer, holiness, and courage that outlast a lifetime. contact drjefferydskinner@protonmail.com

Oracle's (ORCL) earnings "weren't good at all," says Nigam Arora, "but the projections were eye-popping." He talks about the attainability of the company's projected 800% cloud infrastructure revenue goal between fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2030. Nigam makes the case that Oracle's money flow below the surface of projected deals faces significant headwinds.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In episode 37, we review Patchwork and A Feast for Odin in Polyominoes Part 1! First, we chat about what is bringing us joy: Sea Salt & Paper: Extra Pepper, Ptolemy, the Board Game Community speaking out, and Brightcast.Patchwork and A Feast for Odin are both Uwe Rosenberg games, and they differ quite a bit in their complexity (1.60/5 and 3.86/5, respectively, on BGG.) Patchwork is a 2-player game in which players are attempting to complete a quilt - or get as much done as they can.  A Feast for Odin plays 1-4 players, and it is a saga in which players seek to make their viking clan prosper.Why are we discussing these two games together and including such a beefy game in Polyominoes Part 1? Interestingly, Patchwork came from the design process of A Feast for Odin as Uwe explored income from covering up spaces and printing the cost on the tiles (check out “An Interview with Uwe Rosenberg” by Lest My Opinions go Unheard to learn more!) They're also the only two Uwe polyominoes all four of us have played together.We all love a polyomino game, and we're very excited to finally be kicking off this sporadic series with two solid games.Get to know us @ https://lnk.bio/BoardGameHomies 00:53 - Ptolemy03:11 - Sea Salt & Paper: Extra Pepper (with a tangent on Alpine Spice [not a game])08:32 - Board Game Community Speaking Out15:30 - Brightcast18:01 - Patchwork31:60 - A Feast for Odin

Hi friend, Have you ever tried to express something important to your spouse—only to feel like your words aren't landing? That disconnect can be incredibly frustrating, especially when all you want is to feel heard, seen, and understood by the person you love. Over the years, we've realized that sometimes it's not just what we say—but how we say it—that either opens the door for connection or quietly pushes it shut. In this episode, we're diving into two common mistakes couples make when trying to communicate, and how these habits might be keeping your spouse from truly listening. More importantly, we'll show you what to do instead—simple shifts that can help you express your heart without creating more distance in the process. Alright, let's dig in. ................................................................................................

Most high-functioning women don't look angry — they look composed, competent, and constantly “fine.” But under the surface? There's pressure. There's pain. There's a voice that's been silenced for too long.This soul-deep episode is for the woman who's been swallowing her truth, suppressing her needs, and trying to hold it all together while quietly falling apart.We'll explore:

In this episode of Kidney Cancer Unfiltered, we spotlight the often-overlooked experiences of Native American communities in the context of kidney cancer. Experts Dr. Monica Yellowhair of the Arizona Cancer Center and Dr. Ken Batai of Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center share research findings on health disparities, barriers to care, and the need for culturally respectful treatment in tribal communities.Nancy Washburn, also of Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, brings a vital voice to the conversation — offering a front-line view of what it means to navigate patients through a system full of red tape and limited access. With host Annamaria Scaccia, the conversation emphasizes the crucial role of patient navigators and community health workers in bridging healthcare gaps and ensuring Native patients don't fall through the cracks and calls on providers, researchers, and systems to do better — for ALL patients.

I would say that there are 2 maybe 3 cases in modern UK true crime that are household names even to this day both of which I vowed I would never cover on this podcast. And yet here we are, in Gloucester in 1994 at the home of Fred and Rose West, dubbed in the media at the time as the 'House of Horrors'. I have left out the majority of the details of what actually happened to their victims as I don't think its necerssary to go into it. The suffering was prolonged and horrifying. But becasue I am going on holiday and didn't like to leave you with nothing, here we are at part 1 of the story of 25 Cromwell Street. Sources used incude: Fred & Rose; A British Horror Story on Netflix, Fred & Rose by Howard Sounes, Unheard; The Fred and Rose West Tapes. Don't miss an episode—follow, comment, like, and share!Connect with us on social media @‌themondaynightrevue or email at themondaynightrevue@gmail.com.Explore our podcast merch: Shop HereSupport the show: Buy Me a CoffeeDiscover curated reads: BookshopFor ad-free episodes, minisodes, and exclusive perks, join us on Patreon: Support on PatreonWritten and edited by Corinna Harrod with Holly Clarke.

HIV isn’t over — it’s just been ignored. Black women account for a disproportionate number of new cases, the South is ground zero, and the stigma is still killing us.

In Episode 37 we tell about a letter of condemnation sent to Mayor Scott Gillingham, Premier Wab Kinew, all of city council and other public officials by a homeowner in North Point Douglas .He was trying to enjoy his Saturday morning coffee and read a book in his yard in peace. It was "abruptly shattered by agroup of unhoused individuals down on the riverbank - hooting, yelling, hurling expletives and epithets." Before long an ambulance and fire truck arrived- yet again- to the riverbank. Meanwhile the neighborhood homeless encampments were buzzing with illegal activity. “And so begins another typical day in North Point Douglas.”Part 1- To provide context to the letter from Howard Warren, we start with the list he attached of the awful incidents he's encountered in the last few years. The already-struggling neighborhood was failed by government policies and is now overrun with criminals and individuals with profound mental illness. Listen to his experience with robberies, break-ins, assaults, filth, fires, finding a dead body - and worst of all, his dealings with a dysfunctional 911 and police service.13.13 Part 2 - According to Mr. Warren, he previously "reached out in states of deep frustration over what's happening in North Point Douglas" to Mayor Gillingham, "but I did not even receive a basic acknowledgment. That silence is its own message. "Among the points he makes:"Despite years of visible decline, governments of all levels, parties, and ideologies have failed to act in any meaningful way. The very institutions that are supposed to safeguard public welfare and uphold the rule of law have left us feeling trapped and betrayed.""I represent a wide cross-section of Point Douglasresidents, and countless others across Winnipeg, when I say: we are desperate. For the past six years, we have felt abandoned. Unheard. Marginalized. Misunderstood.Demoralized.""We no longer consider inviting people over to sit in our yard. Why would we? There's every chance that the gathering will be disrupted, hijacked, really, by shouting, swearing, fighting, environmental destruction, fires or worse. That medley of chaos too often crashes through what should be moments of joy, peace and calm.""We're the ones who have nothing left to lose but our silence. And so, we fight, speak out, and use whatever means we can to shine a light on what's happening here; the injustice and indignity suffered by both the housed and unhoused. I say this with no exaggeration: we are in a crisis."22.40- "I have several questions for you, Mr. Mayor. Let me start with one I know you've heard before."We read off the questions Howard Warren posedfor Mayor Gillingham. He started with why St. Boniface Street Links was "cut off from municipal funding" in favour of Main Street Project. You'll hear his criticism of MSP's "human rights based" approach to the homeless, "a model which seems to entrench dysfunction, despair and social mayhem."Other Notable Quotes:- “Why are families like ours and our neighbours' expected to endure the daily trauma of watching people destroy themselves in front of our homes, in front of our children, asthe very systems that were meant to protect us slowly collapse around us?” - “The rights of one group should not eclipse the rights of another, especially not when those being drowned out are the very people trying to hold their communities together…we are being dismissed, neglected, and treated as expendable.” - “We need an end to policies that normalize decay, danger, and disorder. And we need city and provincial leadership to stop pretending this is okay. We need all of this now.”******Online today, in print tomorrow in the Winnipeg Sun - Restaurants pushed to the brink by theft, vandalism, City Works and City cops   ⁠https://winnipegsun.com/opinion/gold-winnipeg-restaurants-battered-by-crime-costs-and-silence******* Support the Season Six funding campaign via https://actionline.ca/2024/02/donate-2/

This week, we sit down with Bruce Hughes—author of the bestselling memoir A Stroke of Luck: Music, Medicine, and a Miraculous Recovery. Bruce's story begins in May 2017, when a series of rare strokes left him paralyzed from the neck down. What followed was an extraordinary journey of healing, hope, and yes—luck. But Bruce is quick to point out: the real miracle wasn't divine intervention—it was the strength of community, expert medical care, and a deep belief in possibility.   Now a passionate advocate for stroke survivors, Bruce serves as the Patient Experience Advisor of Therapeutic Services at Horizon Health. He shares his lived experience with compassion, humour, and a desire to pay it forward—offering support to others who are facing the unthinkable.   We talk about how his book, published through our friends at Purple Porcupine Publishing, climbed to the top of the Atlantic Canadian Best Sellers List for three consecutive months—two of those at number one. But Bruce never set out to "make it" as an author or musician. For him, the fact that he's here—writing, speaking, playing music—is more than enough.   Speaking of music, Bruce is also the rhythm guitarist for The UnHeard, a 70s-style rock band that brings his love of storytelling to the stage. He's a songwriter, a singer, and a lifelong believer in the power of a good tune—and a good team.   In this episode, Bruce opens up about: The terrifying moment everything changed His path to recovery and the people who made it possible Why he doesn't see himself as a miracle, but a product of care and connection The making of A Stroke of Luck and how it's helping others And how rock 'n' roll is still very much part of the healing   Plus, we meet Willow—Bruce's four-legged lifesaver—and reflect on what it really means to "make it." This is a story about resilience without ego, survival with soul, and the way music and medicine can sometimes dance together in unexpected harmony.   Watch this episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mikeandkristen   Join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/mikeandkristen   Us on the web: www.mikeandkristen.ca Instagram: www.instagram.com/mike_and_kristen/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mikeandkristencreative Shoot us a message!

John is joined by Christopher D. Kercher, partner in Quinn Emanuel's New York office.  They discuss the recent win Chris's team achieved in Delaware Chancery Court trial involving a high-stakes case involving Desktop Metal and Nano Dimension.  The dispute centered around a merger agreement that included a "hell or high water" clause obligating Nano, the buyer, to do whatever was necessary to secure regulatory approval from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), with a narrow exception if required actions would result in a loss of 10% or more of the company's revenue.After the agreement was signed, a hedge fund replaced Nano's board and management with personnel opposed to the deal.  The new board then sought ways to back out.  Although CFIUS approval was near, Nano's new leadership began stalling, making endless counterproposals, delaying communications, and attempting to trigger the revenue-loss exception by claiming a requirement to maintain a German facility would exceed the 10% threshold.  While the buyer tried to appear compliant with the contract, the evidence—especially a 38-day gap in responding to CFIUS—revealed a pattern of bad faith and delay.  Desktop Metal, struggling financially, was meticulous in adhering to operating covenants, collecting receivables and consulting Nano on business decisions, knowing any misstep could be weaponized to kill the deal.  Despite pressure, the seller never received a renegotiation offer from Nano.At trial, the team presented the buyer's conduct as a strategic “slow-walk.”  The court ultimately agreed, affirming that a hell or high water clause must be honored in both letter and spirit.  The case serves as a reminder that efforts to evade deal obligations—particularly those cloaked in delay or technicalities—will be exposed under judicial scrutiny, and that Delaware courts remain committed to upholding contractual integrity in complex M&A transactions.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

Daily Dose of Hope June 27, 2025   Scripture – Matthew 18:21-35   Prayer: Holy God, Thank you for your incredible mercy.  Your compassion is never-ending and your love is powerful.  We are overflowing with gratitude.  Help us demonstrate this same compassion and love toward others.  May we become people of grace and see people through your eyes.  In Your Name, Amen.   Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, a Deep Dive into the Gospels and Acts.  I just want to remind you all of our amazing worship night tonight at 7:30pm AND our special guest on Sunday.  Dr. David Wilkinson is giving the message in the English-speaking service.  He is a PhD in both astrophysics and theology and his life's work has centered on the intersection between the Christian faith and science.  After the 9:30 service, he has also agreed to a Q&A in the social hall, where a pancake and sausage brunch will be available by donation.  All donations will go to the Residing Hope Children's Home.   Today is part two of Matthew 18.  Here we have this very uncomfortable parable on forgiveness.  Peter wants to know how far should forgiveness be extended.  I mean, Jesus had just offered this conflict mediation model for churches to ensure that justice is upheld.  But what about mercy?  Jesus' answer is really fascinating.  He basically is saying, “Stop keeping count!”   Let's talk a bit about the parable itself.  A servant owes his master a huge sum of money, something like 10,000 bags of gold.  The servant was facing both imprisonment and the sale of his family to compensate for the debt.  He goes to the master and asks for mercy.  The readers are totally surprised – the master shows tremendous compassion and mercy.  He totally forgives the huge debt.  Unheard of and an act of extravagant compassion.   That same servant then goes demanding payment of a debt that a fellow servant owes him.  This isn't a big debt, but something smaller and more manageable.  When the fellow servant asks for more time, the forgiven servant refuses, denies compassion, and has the poor guy thrown in prison.   Seeing the injustice of all of this, there are whistleblowers that see what happens and let the master know.  The master is enraged and reinstates the man's debt.  How could he fail to show compassion after such great compassion was shown to him.  He is imprisoned and tortured.    While the ending is really horrific, Jesus is once again making a point.  Forgiveness is critical and yet it is very hard.  If we look at the whole of Matthew 18, we see the need of both holding people accountable and offering extravagant compassion and forgiveness.  How do we even begin to reconcile this as a church?  Upon doing research on this topic, one scholar suggested that the most powerful and instructive model is the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in post-apartheid South Africa, guided by Bishop Desmond Tutu. Reconciliation entails both the offer of forgiveness and the naming and acceptance of responsibility for wrongful, wounding conduct. This approach to mercy and justice is congruent with Jesus' call in Matthew 18 as a whole: while the faith community prioritizes grace and mercy, it also holds its members accountable for what they do to others.    But what else might Jesus be saying in this parable?  Pay compassion forward.  God has been extraordinarily compassionate toward us.  He gave his Son for us, so we might live abundantly now and in the future.  Our sins are forgiven, our slate has been wiped clean.  We owe Him a debt of gratitude.  And yet, here we see what that looks like in a practical way.  Show mercy, demonstrate compassion, love well, and forgive.   Blessings, Pastor Vicki

Once Rosina Bulwer-Lytton and her husband Edward separated, his life seemed to become more and more successful while she struggled with finances.

I know you can relate to being unheard. And I know you have said, or held back from saying, “I told you so,” millions of times in your life. Why do I know these things?I know these things because as awakened light-beings, we can see more than others can and this causes our advice to often be dismissed (usually because there is no physical proof of what we are seeing), or we are totally misinterpreted. In other words, we say one thing, but something else is heard by the person or people we are talking to. They hear something that is within their own paradigm of reality. For example, I remember telling Larry to drill a new well for the Shamanshack because Gaia said we will need it. Did he listen? No, he said, “well, it's raining a lot now. We never used to have dry well issues, probably it was just a fluke that one year plus we used too much water gardening, we will be fine if we stay water aware if it gets dry again.” Yep, logic says he's right. Didn't turn out that way though. The Shamanshack had no water for months last summer no matter how careful we were.You would think this would have taught him to listen when I tell him to fix a well, but no. This winter I got strong guidance to set up a new water well system for our home, but did he listen? No. “It's fine, our well didn't dry up last year and for the filtering system there's no hurry. We can do it later in the year.” I insisted it had to be done during the winter, but he just said, “it will be fine. Don't worry about it.” I sat back and let the pieces fall where they may. As I am writing this, we have no water at home. We had to bring in a tank of water from the Shamanshack for showers and dishes.One of the interesting aspects of the latest well situation is that when I saw it coming my body would fall into fear, but as I looked directly, the words that would come were, “Gaia wouldn't send us to live here on top of this hill if she was then going to shut off our water.”As I sat with this knowledge, I realized that the present crisis was brought about to fix the system before summer arrives. It feels to me that this summer the water would indeed stop completely if we didn't change the system now. I smiled as I saw that I can go unheard, but Gaia knows how to get through to Larry and isn't going to let it seriously impact me. It may just be more work for Larry since he didn't listen earlier.It is also true that the great majority of my readers, yes you, are here to lead in the New-Paradigm into experienced reality. You are leaders of your family, friends, groups and some of you have tens of thousands of readers, audience and students, in your own right.What a strange and fascinating co-creation this is where the people that were brought in by the human collective, us, go unheard and misunderstood.But we are not passive about it. When we are unheard or misunderstood, we can quickly change direction and say the same thing using different words, or try other tricks until the idea we are trying to convey gets understood.It is very different when we are not heard at all. Unheard and not heard at all, are different things. When you are unheard, you are physically heard but the thing they hear isn't acted upon. Not heard at all is completely invisible, silent, nothing gets through.How do we overcome the situation when we say or repeat something many times, but it goes unheard? We change our words, we change the frequency, even change the people we say the words to sometimes. Nothing.Moving through the world unheard has been the story of my life. Even with thousands of readers, most of what I discuss and explore goes unheard. And when it's heard, it's often, like I described above as a common denominator for most of us, it is misunderstood. Only a small fraction of the ideas and data that I convey gets heard and correctly interpreted, or even retained. Plus, of course, by now I was supposed to have millions of readers, not thousands. That means that my words are completely invisible to the majority of the people I have been tasked with reaching.On a more personal level, I often see situations or complications coming our way and I tell people around me about them, but nothing gets done. And then, it's too late.One solution, of course, is to do the things myself. But that's a lot of things, and not all are things I feel comfortable doing.Another solution is to let things fall apart, the situation or crisis to arrive, and let the pieces fall where they may. And then, have the satisfaction of saying, “I told you so”.At physical and personal level, and sometimes emotional level, there is some discomfort when I go unheard.However, when it happens continuously, and at a global scale, it becomes rather heavy at an energetic level.When I was super young, I would scream and shout and get very frustrated as I went unheard. When I was a teenager, I learned that being unheard was a normal aspect of life, so I released the frustration and sighed instead, and I learned to roll my eyes out loud. I also thoroughly enjoyed saying, “I told you so.”As I grew older, I simply repeated things, a thousand times over, and then once more. Sometimes I will find another author or teacher who is saying the same thing with different words, and push them forward into people's minds. This will occasionally yield good results.Recently, however, I have started to “feel unheard” again. It has been quite a surprise for me. With it, a feeling of tiredness and frustration. And behind that, a feeling of wanting to give up.Now, with that last thought came a big clue on why this is so up in my face right now. You see, we are in a split. And during this split our job, yours and mine, is to hold the light at all times. Not to pick it up for twenty minutes a day while we meditate, or when we don't have a headache, or when we aren't at work, but at all times. And if we don't, then any tiny bit of low-frequency bundle we might carry with us will get blown up out of proportion.As soon as I identified this bundle of suppressed frustration, I did the Stress Relief Exercise on it, but instead of using the words “stress” I used the words “I feel unheard”.Wow! That was eye opening. A barrage of programs, firewalls and traumas came bursting out. It changed the dynamic of my work completely. And brought huge relief around being heard and being misunderstood.Immediately I took to the keyboard to share this with you. I know this is a common problem among us, and know that the energy in the world right now is crackly and explosive.And I know that it is time we are heard and correctly understood.Let's do this!The discussion doesn't stop here—listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

In this heartwarming episode of Reading with Your Kids, we dive into two incredible children's books that prove storytelling is about so much more than just entertainment. Meet Ruby Renee, the spirited protagonist who's learning the art of sharing the spotlight, and Maddie, a resilient young girl finding her place in the world. Ashley Iman, a passionate math teacher turned author, brings Ruby Renee to life in her latest book. Ruby's journey is all about learning to share her voice - quite literally! As the star of morning announcements, she discovers the challenge of making space for others while staying true to herself. It's a relatable story that teaches kids the importance of communication and empathy. Meanwhile, Dana Sutton shares the deeply personal story of Maddie, inspired by her own adopted daughter. This touching narrative follows a young girl navigating life without a stable home, carrying everything she owns in a single backpack. It's a powerful reminder of the resilience of children and the transformative power of compassionate support. Both authors bring unique perspectives from their backgrounds in education. Ashley's experience as a KIPP DC teacher and Dana's years of tutoring shine through in their nuanced approach to storytelling. They understand that children's books are more than just entertainment - they're windows into different experiences, tools for learning, and bridges of understanding. The conversations highlight crucial themes: the importance of helping children solve their own problems, representing diverse experiences in literature, and creating supportive environments for kids to grow and learn. Whether it's Ruby finding her voice or Maddie finding her home, these stories remind us that every child has a unique journey worth celebrating. Parents, educators, and book lovers will find inspiration in these heartfelt narratives that prove children's literature can change lives, one page at a time.

In hopes of learning from the past and In light of US missile strikes on Iranian nuclear sites and subsequent retaliation in an escalating regional conflict, we're revisiting one of our best episodes on how Western media covers war.Guest Bette Dam is a Dutch journalist who covered the war in Afghanistan for 15 years. She began her coverage in 2006, embedded with the Dutch military. She's the author of two books: Looking for the Enemy, Mullah Omar and the Unknown Taliban, and A Man in a Motorcycle, How Hamid Karzai Came to Power. In the course of her reporting Dam realized that most Western journalists were providing a distorted view of the war. It left out the perspective of the Afghan people, and made the country appear more dangerous than it really was. And Dam says the press missed opportunities to hold the U.S. and NATO to account for major blunders – including largely overlooking the fact that the Taliban surrendered in December 2001. This interview was recorded in October 2023.In 2024, Dam completed a PhD at the Vrije Universiteit in Brussels on the role of Western media in conflict, where she now serves on the faculty. In February 2025 she launched UNHEARD in partnership with the Tow Center at the Columbia School of Journalism, a project that aims to help news organizations reveal potentially overlooked narratives by using AI to audit who is quoted in their articles. **Copy this link to share this episode anywhere**MORE FROM BETTE DAMTEDx talk: The shortcomings of war reportingFollow Bette on X (formerly Twitter)Music in this episode by Blue Dot Sessions, Zero V, and Doyeq.  ABOUT THE SHOW The Making Peace Visible podcast is hosted by Jamil Simon and produced by Andrea Muraskin.

Mild-mannered Scott Simpson from Minneapolis truly became "The Russian Nightmare" Nikita Koloff, and on the season finale of Unheard, he takes us into the perils and peaks of playing a foreign menace in professional wrestling. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this powerful episode, I'm joined by Russell Tellup, a brave and deeply reflective man who opens up about the childhood abuse that shaped every corner of his life. From a young age, Russell was made to feel like the problem. Unseen. Unheard. Unloved. His sense of worth was crushed before it had a chance to form, leaving him to carry the unbearable belief that he didn't matter.As we talk, Russell shares how those early wounds followed him into adulthood, leading him into relationships with narcissistic partners who mirrored the same emotional neglect and manipulation he experienced as a child. What unfolds in this conversation is raw and real. There are moments of deep sadness. There's anger. And there's a profound sense of clarity as he begins to piece together the lifelong pattern of trauma that kept him stuck as he now helps other men in this position.This is not just a story of pain, it's a story of awakening. Russell's courage to speak his truth is what transforms it. And in his vulnerability, you'll find extraordinary strength.So often, we don't hear the stories of men who've endured narcissistic abuse. But it happens. And it matters. Russell's voice cuts through the silence and reminds us that abuse doesn't discriminate, it just hides where shame lives.If you've ever felt like the black sheep, like you were never enough, or like you kept attracting the same kind of pain, you are not alone. This conversation will stay with you. Russell's story is a reminder that even in the darkest places, there is the possibility of healing, and there is always power in finally being heard.If you need to get in touch with Russell, he has a private Facebook community for men: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1AYsbsh7uw/Don't ever be alone in your journey and make sure you come and join my private Facebook community, No Visible Bruises where you can connect with other survivors of narcissistic abuse, domestic abuse and coercive control:https://www.facebook.com/groups/novisiblebruisesDisclaimer:The views and opinions shared in this podcast are those of the individuals involved and are intended for informational and educational purposes only.

Sales gets a dirty scammy rep but the truth is, if you can't sell people you can't help people. Charging people is not immoral, it's required for their success. If you have a good product or service, you have an obligation to be good at sales. I've closed over 2.3 million in sales and only had $7,000 in refunds which is .3% of total sales. Unheard of in my industry. “If your product or service is good enough it sells itself” is such a lazy approach to business. When it comes to most clietentel, they have limiting beliefs around spending money on themselves, mom's and women especially. A tip I have for sales that a lot of people miss: bridging the gap. In this episode, I'm going to explain how a lot of people fuck up sales by talking about themselves too much and not enough about solving their potential prospects problems. We'll also talk about what to look out for during the call and how to personalize your program for what they want in real time.   Time Stamps:   (0:13) If You Can't Sell, You Can't Help (2:16) 50 Dollars A Month For Online Coaching Back In The Day (5:00) Why You Should Listen To Me (8:02) I Was Not Good When I Started (10:51) Bridging The Gap (14:30) Initial Questions (17:00) What Do They Want To Achieve?
