Do people like you… but never seem to respect you? In this episode of Social Intelligence, AJ Harbinger and Johnny Dzubak reveal the hidden social trap of being “too agreeable.” While it might seem like the best way to build rapport, research shows that excessive agreeableness actually suppresses your influence, erodes your authenticity, and leads to burnout. You'll learn why likability isn't the goal—and how the Three C Model (Challenge, Curiosity, and Contrast) can transform your conversations into memorable, high-impact interactions that demand attention and build real connection. What to Listen For [00:00:00] Why being likable doesn't make you more influential [00:01:15] The hidden cost of being predictably agreeable: burnout and boredom [00:02:27] Why people won't respect your time if you don't value it first [00:04:00] Agreeableness suppresses authenticity—and makes others trust you less [00:04:37] The Harvard study: Why respectful disagreement builds stronger connection [00:06:28] The Three C Model for breaking free from the “nice” trap [00:07:13] How to challenge respectfully without sounding combative [00:07:55] Curiosity with intention: The secret to deepening conversations [00:08:21] Contrast with authenticity: Sharing personal truths to build influence [00:10:44] Why most people operate from a worldview they never chose [00:12:04] Mistake #3: Agreeing when you actually disagree [00:12:42] Likability ≠ connection—how hiding your thoughts delays rejection [00:13:08] What is “productive friction” and why it makes you unforgettable [00:13:54] Take the Influence Index assessment to uncover your social blind spots A Word From Our Sponsors Tired of awkward handshakes and collecting business cards without building real connections?

Welcome to Day 2668 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2668 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 74:9-17– Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2668 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2668 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today's Wisdom Nugget is titled: Remembering Ancient Wonders – A Plea for Present Deliverance - A Trek Through Psalm 74:9-17 Today, we continue our poignant trek through Psalm 74 in the New Living Translation, encompassing verses 9 through 17. In our last conversation, we plunged into the raw agony of communal lament found in Psalm 74:1-8. We experienced the profound despair of a people whose sacred Temple, the very dwelling place of God, lay in "perpetual ruins," desecrated by enemies who "shouted their victorious battle cries" where God's praise once resonated. We heard their desperate plea: "O God, why have you abandoned us forever?" as they wrestled with the unimaginable horror of God's apparent absence and the systematic destruction of their places of worship. The weight of their loss and the depth of the sacrilege were palpable. Now, as we move into this next section, the psalmist, Asaph, continues to voice their anguish, lamenting the continued mockery of the enemy and, crucially, the disheartening silence from heaven itself. But then, in a dramatic shift, he pivots to a powerful rhetorical strategy: he reminds God – and himself – of God's awesome, unparalleled acts of cosmic power and historical deliverance in the ancient past. This becomes the foundation for his desperate plea for present intervention. It's a profound lesson in how to appeal to God's character and past faithfulness when facing seemingly insurmountable present crises. So, let's immerse ourselves in this cry for divine memory and a demonstration of power. (Reads Psalm 74:9-11 NLT) We see no miraculous signs. There are no prophets among us. And who can tell us how long this will last? How long, O God, will you allow our enemies to mock you? Will they insult your name forever? Why do you hold back your strong right hand? Unleash your power and destroy them. Guthrie Chamberlain: The lament continues, but now it highlights a particularly agonizing aspect of their suffering: the spiritual silence and uncertainty. The psalmist cries: "We see no miraculous signs. There are no prophets among us. And who can tell us how long this will last?" In ancient Israel, God often communicated His will and demonstrated His presence through "miraculous signs" (Hebrew: otot), powerful demonstrations of His intervention, like those at the Exodus. He also spoke through "prophets," individuals who delivered direct messages from Him, offering guidance, warning, and comfort. To have no miraculous signs and no prophets was a profound crisis of spiritual guidance. It meant God seemed utterly silent, His presence hidden, and His will unknown. The most agonizing part was the unknown duration: "And...

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I am thrilled to kick off a month-long series dedicated to exploring spiritual gifts and their application in our businesses. As we dive into July, my heart is to help you bridge the gap between your spiritual life and your business life, encouraging you to see how these two realms can beautifully intersect. We begin with an overview of spiritual gifts, emphasizing that they are not just for the ultra-spiritual but are accessible to everyone. I encourage you to discover and grow in your gifts, using them to transform lives, including those in your business. I reference key biblical passages—1 Corinthians 12, Romans 12, and Ephesians 4—that outline various spiritual gifts, from words of wisdom and knowledge to leadership roles within the church. Throughout the episode, I lay down some foundational principles about spiritual gifts. First, we don't typically choose our gifts, but we can pursue them. I share my personal journey of desiring every spiritual gift and how I've seen them manifest in my life. It's crucial to understand that these gifts are distinct from our natural talents; they are empowered by the Holy Spirit and meant for the good of others, not just for our own gain. I think you will enjoy the episode! Feel free to share it with a friend who you think needs this encouragement in their life.    Have you taken my new quiz yet??

Emboldened by a partial court victory over his use of troops amid immigration protests in Los Angeles, President Trump is now threatening to expand deployment to other cities. This is unnerving, given that his manufacturing of fake rationales for “emergency” decisions like these is getting worse. Yet it comes as striking new polling shows that Trump's use of troops in California is deeply underwater with voters. Importantly, he's faring even worse on this with independents. In short, Trump recognizes zero constraints at this point, either from the law or, critically, from public opinion. We talked to Brian Beutler, author of the excellent Off Message Substack. He explains why Trump is losing the voters on two issues that pundits foolishly predicted he'd win on—the domestic deployment of troops and immigration—and how Democrats should respond by fighting a better information war than they currently seem capable of waging.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Is it burnout… or are you being initiated into your next level?In this raw, honest episode, I'm unpacking the collective burnout so many spiritual entrepreneurs, coaches, and service providers are feeling in 2025 and what it really means.This isn't just exhaustion. This is a sacred invitation to burn down what no longer fits, and rebirth your truest, boldest, most magnetic self.I share my own experience with deep burnout in 2024 how it cracked me open, stripped me of everything I thought I had to be, and initiated me into the powerful business model, identity, and lifestyle I now teach. If you're questioning your path, your purpose, or if entrepreneurship is even for you anymore… this one's for you.We're not talking surface-level self-care. We're talking nervous system regulation, shadow work, and rebuilding a business that actually honors your energy, cycle, softness, and sacred ambition.

Most people think influence is about clever tactics or quick wins. But true, lasting influence is built on trust, emotional intelligence, and understanding how people really think. In this episode of Social Intelligence, Abbie Morano returns to reveal her 5-principle framework for ethical influence — combining biology, psychology, and social dynamics. Abbie breaks down why short-term manipulation backfires, how to guide conversations by giving others control, and why your own emotional regulation is the foundation for building real trust.

In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Ohio State Senator Kristina Roegner, the lead sponsor of Senate Bill 9, a bold reform aimed at cutting 30% of Ohio's regulations over three years. Senator Roegner walks through the inspiration for the bill—seeing Ohio tied with Illinois as one of the most overregulated states in America—and how the plan came together. The legislation established a three-part strategy: eliminate two regulations for every new one introduced, reduce total regulations by 10% each year over three years, and launch a user-friendly website—CutRedTape.Ohio.gov—that empowers citizens to identify outdated or burdensome rules. Sen. Roegner also explains how her background in engineering, finance, and consulting helped her approach regulatory reform with a data-driven mindset. She shares real-world success stories, including a hospital forced to install multiple small boilers due to an archaic rule dating back to the era before the Titanic. David and Sen. Roegner also discuss the growing success of interstate licensing compacts—a common-sense effort she's championed to help professionals like nurses and therapists move and work freely across state lines. With half of Ohio agencies already hitting their reduction targets and the rest on track, Roegner's work shows how local reforms can unleash economic growth, attract businesses, and empower everyday citizens to cut through government red tape.

Modern life has made friendship feel more confusing, fragile, and isolating than ever. In this episode, journalist and author Anna Goldfarb joins us to unpack the paradox of modern friendship — why we're lonelier despite being more connected, and what we can do to build stronger, more fulfilling relationships. Anna shares her “Triple D” framework (Desire, Diligence, Delight) and breaks down the hidden architecture of great friendships: clear aboutness, healthy compartmentalization, emotional maturity, and the courage to reconnect. Whether you're tired of being everyone's unpaid therapist or simply wondering how to revive a drifting connection, this episode gives you the practical tools and emotional insight to reset your social life — no cringe required. What to Listen For [00:00] Why affection alone isn't enough for deep friendship [00:01:09] What's changed about adult friendships — and why we're feeling more disconnected [00:04:16] The hidden cost of unlimited choice and hyper-individualism [00:08:07] Active vs. nostalgic friendships: how to tell the difference [00:11:19] Every great friendship has an “About” — and here's how to find yours [00:14:39] 6 hard truths about friendship (and how to stop blaming yourself) [00:23:01] Why emotional maturity is the new social skillset [00:33:56] The Triple D framework for building strong friendships [00:44:10] How to avoid being an unpaid therapist (and stop pushing people away) [00:52:34] The Friendship Cleanse: reset your network with clarity and care Episode Takeaways: Connection isn't about quantity — it's about clear shared meaning. Find your friendship “About.” It's okay to compartmentalize your relationships. Not every friend needs to be your everything. Friendships require maintenance. If it matters, don't let the silence stretch too long. Maturity means asking: am I showing up the way I want to be treated? Most people want to reconnect. They're just waiting on someone to go first. Make time for delight. Reignite friendships by creating new shared memories — not just rehashing old ones.
