In Round 102 of the Tactical Transition Tips on the Transition Drill Podcast, your transition doesn't begin with paperwork or a final day on the job. It begins much earlier, often quietly, when structure starts doing more of the work than intention. For people who built their identity inside disciplined professions, the danger isn't failure after transition, it's drift. Old habits. Old circles. Old coping mechanisms that no longer fit the life ahead, but remain familiar enough to feel safe.This episode focuses on one critical idea: if you don't deliberately decide what you're leaving behind, it will follow you forward. Careers built on structure, hierarchy, and mission provide a powerful container. When that container loosens or disappears, responsibility shifts inward. Without planning, the same discipline that once kept everything aligned can dissolve into complacency, isolation, or reactive decision-making.This episode breaks transition preparation into three distinct timelines, recognizing that preparation looks different depending on how close someone is to leaving a structured career. Each group is given a specific focus designed to reduce risk, preserve identity, and support long-term stability beyond a uniform, badge, or rank.Transition Group Guidance:• Close Range Group (transitioning now to within 12 months): Audit What Still Pulls You Backwards.Identify people, routines, and environments that undermine progress, and create distance now so they don't quietly shape your next career.• Medium Range Group (transitioning in 3–5 years): Build a New Tribe Before You Need It.Begin forming relationships outside your current organization so support, mentorship, and perspective already exist when the transition begins.• Long Range Group (transitioning in 10+ years): Decide Early Who You Refuse to Become.Establish clear identity guardrails and small daily habits that prevent long-term drift into bitterness, stagnation, or unhealthy metrics of success.This episode isn't about motivation. It's about awareness, discipline, and ownership. Transition outcomes are rarely determined at the moment of exit. They are shaped years earlier by the decisions people make when no one is forcing them to prepare.This round lays out how to do that work early, deliberately, and without drama.Get additional resources and join our newsletter via the link in the show notes.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:IG: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.comSPONSORS:Frontline OpticsGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://frontlineoptics.comPromocode: Transition10Blue Line RoastingGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://bluelineroasting.comPromocode: Transition10

What happens when technology grows faster than the rules meant to guide it? We toast the season finale by tackling that question head-on—starting with a bold move to centralize AI regulation at the federal level and preempt state-by-state rules. We lay out what a single national framework could fix, what it could break, and how lobbying from the biggest AI players complicates the path forward. Uniform standards might speed innovation and reduce compliance chaos, but local expertise matters, and trust depends on safeguards that balance industry power with public interest.Then we shift from policy to pavement. Waymo keeps making headlines for the wrong reasons: riders passing out in driverless cars, a recall tied to passing stopped school buses with flashing lights, and a bizarre three-car standoff that jammed a steep San Francisco street for nearly an hour. We unpack what these incidents reveal about human behavior in autonomous systems, the limits of remote intervention, and the public's patience when “driverless” becomes neighborhood gridlock. Safety updates and voluntary recalls are essential, but accountability, transparency, and resilient design are how this technology earns the right to scale.Not everything is caution tape and traffic cones. We spotlight the AirFly Pro 2 from Twelve South, a small Bluetooth transmitter that lets two people share audio from any 3.5 mm jack—perfect for flights, older TVs, and road trips. It's simple, reliable, and exactly the kind of travel tech that quietly improves your day. We also marvel at a $380,000 “human washing machine”—part luxury, part lab experiment—hinting at future wellness and eldercare tech where biometrics and comfort meet. And we raise a glass to a standout Jack Daniel's single barrel heritage barrel release, trading tasting notes on char, sweetness, and that long, confident finish.Along the way we nod to Perl's enduring place in internet history, reminding ourselves that the tools that last aren't always the flashiest—they're the ones that solve real problems again and again. As we wrap season seven, the through-line is clear: when tech outruns law, human behavior fills the void. The best builders anticipate that gap, and the best policy keeps pace without strangling the spark. If that balance excites you as much as it challenges you, you're our kind of listener.Enjoyed the season? Subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review to help others find us.

Designermarken wie Tommy Hilfiger und Ralph Lauren erkennt man an Markenzeichen und Design. Markenzeichen machen äußerlich sichtbar und eindeutig identifizierbar. Manchmal erkennt man auch Menschen in bestimmten Berufen an ihrer Kleidung, zum Beispiel einen Chirurgen an seinem OP-Kittel, einen Polizisten an seiner Uniform oder einen Richter an seiner Robe. Jesus hat uns etwas gegeben, das ein unwiderlegbarer Beweis dafür ist, dass wir nahe bei Gott sind: Einen Test, mit dem du dein eigenes geistliches Wachstum beurteilen kannst. So erstaunlich ist dieses „Markenzeichen“, dass Jesus sagt, es sei das wichtigste Erkennungsmerkmal deines Glaubens. Er drückt es so aus: „Ein neues Gebot gebe ich euch: Liebt einander! Wie ich euch geliebt habe, so sollt auch ihr einander lieben. Daran werden alle erkennen, dass ihr meine Jünger seid: Wenn ihr einander liebt“ (Joh 13,34–35 LU). Francis Schaeffer, der große christliche Apologet, sagte: „Liebe ist die letzte Apologetik. Sie ist die Verteidigung, gegen die es keine Verteidigung gibt.“ Wenn eine Frau schwanger ist, kommt irgendwann der Punkt, an dem „man es sieht“. Das Leben in ihr beginnt nach außen sichtbar zu werden. Die Bibel drückt es ähnlich aus: „Die Liebe Gottes ist ausgegossen in unsere Herzen durch den Heiligen Geist, der uns gegeben ist“ (Röm 5,5 EÜ). Johannes schreibt: „Ihr Lieben, hat uns Gott so geliebt, so sollen wir uns auch untereinander lieben“ (1.Joh 4,11 LU). Liebe – sie ist die ultimative Prüfung deiner Jüngerschaft.
“There were 2 years of my life that I was dead certain I was gonna be a breakdancer…” The release of THE ULTIMATE SIN on January 24, 1986, the 4th studio album from OZZY OSBOURNE (and the 2nd & final album to feature Jake E. Lee on guitar) is definitely one of the heaviest albums of Ozzy's 80's output. “I've got the magic!” With heavier riffs, crazier guitar pyrotechnics, and darker lyrical themes like nuclear annihilation, THE ULTIMATE SIN blends in just the right amount of glam while still maintaining the essential heaviness that is a prerequisite for any classic OZZY album. While perhaps a bit “more Blizzard than Diary”, it's a dramatic improvement from Bark At The Moon and is overall heavier and more focused. “Oh yeah, the ‘dunniguhh'? Yeah…I remember that one.” Get ready for some metal news and current events, understand that “most people, if they have a mustache” can only look like one of three different people (or a combination of all three), and accept the fact that “the bur-duh-dur is what got ‘em”.

Bob “Bongo” Starkie was one of Australian rock's most colourful and enduring guitarists — a player whose sharp riffs, cheeky humour, and rhythmic pulse powered Skyhooks from Melbourne cult heroes to national icons. Bongo's journey before, during, and after the band reflects a musician who never lost his spark. Starkie passed away on 29 November 2025, prompting an outpouring of affection from fans and fellow artists who saw him as a vital thread in the fabric of Australian music.Growing up in Melbourne, Bob was drawn to guitar early and spent his young adulthood shaping his craft in pubs, clubs, and rehearsal rooms. He played in a string of local outfits where he built a reputation for clean, punchy rhythm work and an upbeat stage presence. Even before he had a national profile, musicians around the city knew him as reliable, talented, and quietly charismatic — the sort of guitarist other bands wanted to poach.Starkie joined Skyhooks in 1973, stepping into a band that would become one of Australia's most influential rock acts. Skyhooks arrived like a shockwave: irreverent, glammy, theatrical, and unmistakably Australian.Bob's guitar style became a pillar of their sound — tight, melodic, rhythmic, and full of playful swagger. His work powered hits from Living in the '70s and Ego Is Not a Dirty Word, including classics like “Horror Movie,” “You Just Like Me 'Cause I'm Good in Bed,” “Ego Is Not a Dirty Word,” and “Women in Uniform.”Onstage, Bob brought a grounded confidence that balanced the band's wilder theatrical edges. He wasn't the loudest personality in Skyhooks, but his presence was essential — the rhythmic engine room that kept the glitter-covered chaos driving forward.After the band's original era wound down, Starkie remained a working musician through and through. He played in a variety of groups, collaborated widely, and stayed active across Melbourne's music scene.Eventually, he took on a role that fans adored: fronting Bob Starkie's Skyhooks Show, a touring act that kept the band's catalogue alive with humour, heart, and authenticity. Unlike a tribute act, this was the real thing — Starkie playing the music he helped make famous. Audiences loved him for it, and the shows often became celebrations shared across generations.He also contributed frequently to interviews, documentaries, and retrospectives, offering his memories with warmth and clarity. Starkie took pride in the band's legacy and made sure the stories — and the songs — stayed alive.In his final years, Starkie continued performing and engaging with the music community whenever his health allowed. His death led to a wave of tributes across Australia. Artists, fans, music journalists, and former bandmates remembered him as a generous, grounded musician who gave everything to his craft and never lost his sense of fun.Bob “Bongo” Starkie leaves behind more than riffs and records — he leaves behind decades of memories, laughter, friendship, and the unmistakable sound of Skyhooks, a band that helped Australia find its own voice in rock 'n' roll. From his early days in Melbourne pubs to his final shows proudly flying the Skyhooks flag, he stayed true to the music and the people who loved it.His legacy will continue to ring out every time a Skyhooks classic blasts through a speaker.In this episode we explore Bongo's musical life, listening to hin tell his own story, in his own words. Whether you're already familar with the band Skyhooks, or just discovering them for the first time, I'm sure you're going to enjoy hearing Bob's story.For more information, comments or feedback, head to ny website https://www.abreathoffreshair.com.au

3. Februar 1997: Dass der angebliche Vorzeigeoffizier und eigentliche Maquis-Chef Michael Eddington ihn in Staffel 4 übertölpelte, nagt gewaltig an Captain Sisko. Ohne dass das Publikum es mitbekam, jagte er den Ex-Untergebenen seither pausen-, aber auch erfolglos. Deswegen kommt zur Schmach nun noch die Schande: Starfleet fordert, dass er den Fall an Colonel Sanders abgibt. Doch ohne ihn. No more Mr. Nice Ben. In Deutschland: Für die Uniform, ausgestrahlt am 9. März 1998.

The stress of policing doesn't end at the station door. While officers shoulder trauma, long hours and unpredictable shifts, their families carry the unseen weight at home — the worry, the schedule changes, the emotional whiplash and the silence. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, host Jim Dudley sits down with Katherine Boyle who lived that reality as a child. She explains how police work shapes family life in ways officers often underestimate and offers practical guidance for staying connected, communicating openly and protecting the well-being of spouses and children. Katherine, known to many as “the lieutenant's daughter,” is an advocate for law enforcement kids and families and the host of Beyond the Uniform with the LT's Daughter. As the daughter of a longtime Philadelphia police lieutenant who served in special victims, she brings a rare dual perspective — the civilian child who grew up inside a police household and the adult who now works to bridge communication gaps between officers and their loved ones. Her mission is to help families understand the job, help officers show up fully at home and give civilians a clearer view of the public safety world they rarely see. Follow Katherine on Instagram.

From Air Force flight suit to luxury dry cleaning, laundromats, and apartment complexes… In this episode of Blue Collar Millionaire, Ricardo Torres shares how he went beyond the uniform and built true entrepreneurial freedom — not just financially, but with his time for his wife and daughters. This is Part 1 of a 3-part series with Ricardo, where we break down his mindset shift from "I can't do that" to "How can I do that?" and how that one shift became the foundation for everything he's built since.

Show SummaryNatalie Elliott Handy, a caregiver for her husband and mother and co-host of the Confessions of a Reluctant Caregiver Podcast. During our conversation, we share the commitment that she and her sister have to highlighting and supporting military connected caregivers. Provide FeedbackAs a dedicated member of the audience, we would like to hear from you about the show. Please take a few minutes to share your thoughts about the show in this short feedback survey. By doing so, you will be entered to receive a signed copy of one of our host's three books on military and veteran mental health. About Today's GuestNatalie is someone who genuinely loves people. She has a natural passion for meeting new faces, staying closely connected with family, friends, and colleagues, and, most of all, helping others. Anyone who knows her will readily say, “Natalie doesn't know a stranger.” It's simply who she has always been.Raised in her family's hardware store, Natalie learned early how to engage customers — and how to count change — by talking to everyone who walked through the door. At church, she was the first to volunteer to sing, recite Bible verses in “big church,” and attend every youth activity, especially lock-ins. In school, her teachers often placed her in the front row to help minimize “distractions,” because she was, without a doubt, a social butterfly.Those gifts — her ability to connect, her quick wit, and her desire to support others — naturally led her into leadership roles throughout her career in the mental health field. She married young at 21 and, many years later, again at 39. She often describes her first marriage as a light-hearted “practice run” with someone kind, but not Jason, the partner she shares her life with today.From the outside, Natalie's life looked picture-perfect: a fulfilling job, a loving husband, a close-knit support system, and of course, her beloved dogs. But behind the scenes, she was burning the candle at both ends — working 12-hour days, six days a week, answering every request with, “No problem. Happy to help.”Everything shifted when Jason was diagnosed with cancer in March 2022. In the midst of that crisis, Natalie confronted the truth that she couldn't keep living at that pace. During those darkest moments, she reconnected with her faith and, through that, rediscovered her true self. She learned to acknowledge her imperfections and, more importantly, to love herself fully — flaws and all.Today, Natalie has reordered her life with clear priorities: God, herself, Jason, family and friends, and then work. She says “no” far more often, seeks silver linings in difficult moments, and is grateful for the journey that led her to live God's plan instead of her own. She embraces the mantra of being “perfectly imperfect.”Her mission is simple: to share stories and experiences that inspire, uplift, and — whenever possible — spark a little laughter. She strives to encourage others to be true to themselves while supporting the people they love. And along the way, she fully intends to keep making new friends.Links Mentioned During the EpisodeConfessions of a Reluctant Caregiver Website2024 Heroes Caring for Heroes series2023 Heroes Caring for Heroes seriesPsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's PsychArmor Resource of the Week is the PsychArmor course course Understanding the VA for Caregivers.

Decorated Army officer turned warrior‑advocate Rudy De La Rosa opens up like never before: marked for death by the Mexican Mafia as a teenager, pulled into gang violence, homeless, and staring down his own destruction—before trading bullets for a uniform and fighting for something bigger than himself. In this Urban Valor Podcast episode, we dig into generational trauma, gang warfare in East LA & the 605 freeway corridor, the “green‑light” hit list, then military service in the U.S. Army, combat in Afghanistan, lifting the weight off his family's legacy, and rewriting his story.
Ever wondered what happens when sales training expertise meets veteran transition needs? In this conversation with Michele McManamon, CEO and Co-Founder of Operation New Uniform, Cam and Otis explore how a single scholarship offer evolved into a national movement helping veterans build meaningful civilian careers."We're not teaching them how to interview, we're teaching them how to sell," Michele explains, sharing how ONU helps veterans translate their military experience into success beyond service. What began as one scholarship to her Sandler sales program has grown into an organization that's impacted over 700 servicemembers, veterans, and military spouses across 28 states.From expanding veterans' career perspectives to sharing stories of transformation, Michele offers valuable insights into the challenges of transition and the power of mindset. As Otis puts it, “Every time I stood up in front of the boss and said, ‘This is what I think we should do'… I was selling. And there ain't nobody teaching it.”More About Michele:Michele McManamon is the CEO and Co-Founder of Operation New Uniform (ONU), a nonprofit helping veterans and military families overcome unemployment and career transition challenges. ONU's curriculum, based on Sandler training, has reached over 700 graduates and impacted more than 2,400 lives. Michele's leadership has earned her multiple honors, including Woman Business Owner of the Year, Jacksonville's Top 25 Influential Women, and Veteran Community Champion of the Year.#LeadershipPodcast #VeteranSuccess #OperationNewUniform #MicheleMcManamon #TribeAndPurpose #CamAndOtis #MilitaryTransition #CareerReadiness #SalesTraining #VeteranEmpowerment #LeadershipDevelopment #PurposeDriven #ServiceToSuccess #10xYourTeamChapter Times and Titles:From Sandler to Service [00:00 - 05:00]Introduction to Michele McManamonThe origin story of Operation New UniformHow one scholarship evolved into a national organization"We're Teaching Them How to Sell" [05:01 - 15:00]The Sandler methodology applied to veteran transitionWhy interview skills aren't enoughTeaching veterans to articulate their valueOpening the Aperture [15:01 - 25:00]Helping veterans see beyond military roles"There's HR roles, there's IT..."Breaking down limiting beliefs about civilian careersThe Military-Sales Connection [25:01 - 35:00]Otis: "Every time I stood up in front of the boss...

Send us a textWhat if the hardest grief in your life isn't about death, but about change—leaving a team, dropping a title, or stepping away from a community that once defined you? That's where our conversation with coach and educator Stephanie Simpson begins, and it's where many first responders secretly live: in the space between who we were and who we're becoming.Stephanie shares how her evolution from dancer and teacher to professional coach reshaped her understanding of loss. We dig into why “moving on” often backfires and how “moving forward” honors what mattered while making room for growth. Instead of chasing reasons or culprits, we explore a different order of operations: feel first, then learn. Stephanie offers embodied practices—locating sensations, sculpting feelings, and observing them—to shift from intellectualizing to processing. The result isn't soft; it's strategic. Emotions become data you can use under pressure.We also reframe stress for police, fire, EMS, and dispatch. Stress isn't the enemy; unmanaged stress is. Stephanie, who teaches stress science to future first responders, explains how too much strain overwhelms and too little erodes purpose, and why internal stressors—perfectionism, shame, the inner critic—often do more damage than any single call. From Inside Out's portrayal of panic to practical reset routines, we map how to notice, name, and navigate emotions without losing your edge, at work or at home.If you've felt the ache of leaving a role, the pull to find someone to blame, or the pressure to “just get over it,” this conversation offers a more honest path.
