Summary In this episode of Startup Junkies, hosts Caleb Talley, Jeff Amerine, and Harrison Kitson have a conversation with the co-founder of Deep Wealth, Jeffrey Feldberg. Jeffrey's journey began in a modest attic with a small e-learning startup in 1996 and has evolved into a masterclass in business exits. Despite facing initial challenges, Jeffrey's company gained remarkable traction, leading to a substantial seven-figure buyout offer from a Fortune 10 company. Unyielding in his vision, Jeffrey declined the offer, choosing instead to immerse himself in the intricacies of business exits. Within a mere twenty-four months, his perseverance paid off, as he successfully orchestrated a nine-figure deal for his company. Deep Wealth was born from this success. Jeffrey realized that exiting a business requires a unique set of skills distinct from those needed to grow or start one. His frustration with costly, inexperienced advisors propelled him to refine his strategies and develop an industry-agnostic, nine-step system for business exits. This framework is designed to guide entrepreneurs through the complex exit process, catering to diverse industries and age groups. Beyond financial gain, Jeffrey emphasizes the importance of rewarding key team members and fostering a culture of gratitude and generosity within organizations. His belief in the transformative potential of successful business exits extends to broader societal impacts; he envisions a "virtuous cycle" where the wealth generated from exits is reinvested into the community, sparking further innovation and economic growth. Deep Wealth stands as a beacon for entrepreneurs seeking to navigate their exits strategically and successfully. With Jeffrey Feldberg's expert guidance, entrepreneurs can not only achieve their financial goals but also contribute to the enrichment of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.   Show Notes (00:00) Introduction (01:08) About Deep Wealth (10:17) Advice on Receiving All Stock Offers (13:33) Diving Into Deep Wealth's Nine-Step System (22:51) How Entrepreneurs Help Solve Problems (29:42) Advice to Younger Self (32:17) Closing Question   Links Jeff Amerine Caleb Talley Harrison Kitson Startup Junkie Startup Junkie YouTube Jeffrey Feldberg Deep Wealth

Mi járatban vagy itt?" - kérdezte Gábor, megpróbálva figyelmes lenni a káosz közepette.En: "Hi, Katalin! What brings you here?" Gábor asked, attempting to be attentive amidst the chaos.Hu: "Be kell jelentenem valamit" - kezdte Katalin, miközben egy papírt húzott elő kabátja zsebéből.En: "I need to report something," Katalin began as she pulled a paper from her coat pocket.Hu: "Zsolt, egy... - hirtelen megakadt, ahogy egy szénapor-halmaz felkavart előtte, könnyeket fakasztva a szemébe.En: "Zsolt, a..." - she suddenly hesitated as a cloud of soot stirred up in front of her, bringing tears to her eyes.Hu: Allergiás reakciója kezdődött, könnyei közt köhögve próbálta folytatni - "...barát."En: An allergic reaction began, and through her tears, she coughed and tried to continue - "...friend."Hu: Gábor óvatosan figyelte, ahogy Katalin megpróbálta összeszedni magát.En: Gábor watched cautiously as Katalin tried to compose herself.Hu: "Jól vagy?" - kérdezte, de tekintete közben feszültséget tükrözött, ahogy más sürgős ügyekkel is foglalkoznia kellett.En: "Are you okay?" he asked, but his gaze reflected tension as he had to attend to other urgent matters.Hu: "Kérlek, figyelj rám! Zsolt átvert engem, és emiatt most gyanúba kerültem én is.En: "Please, listen to me! Zsolt cheated me, and because of this, I'm now under suspicion too.Hu: Szeretném tisztázni a nevemet" - mondta Katalin, miközben egy másik zsebkendőt vett elő.En: I want to clear my name," Katalin said as she took out another tissue.Hu: Gábor csak bólintott, majd íróasztala felé mutatott.En: Gábor just nodded, then pointed toward his desk.Hu: "Beszéljünk ott. Kevesebb a zaj."En: "Let's talk there. There's less noise."Hu: Ahogy Katalin elindult az asztal felé, a benne rejlő szorongás egy pillanatra irányt változtatott.En: As Katalin moved toward the desk, her inherent anxiety momentarily shifted.Hu: Egy pillanatnyi figyelmetlenség és a hiba következményeként jelentkező reagálás váratlan és rettenetes volt.En: A moment of inattention and the resulting reaction from the mistake was unexpected and terrible.Hu: Mielőtt teljesen összezuhant volna, Katalinnak sikerült papírjait Gábor elé tenni.En: Before completely collapsing, Katalin managed to place her papers in front of Gábor.Hu: A hirtelen mozdulatok nyomán a rendőrök feszültek lettek.En: The swift movements made the officers tense.Hu: Mindenki a saját feladatával törődött, de Katalin közeli ájulása megállította a folyamatos zűrzavart.En: Everyone was attending to their own tasks, but Katalin's near fainting halted the continuous chaos.Hu: Azonnal orvosi segítséget kértek, és Katalint egy kényelmesebb helyre fektették.En: Medical help was immediately requested, and Katalin was laid in a more comfortable place.Hu: Zsolt neve még mindig ott volt a papíron.En: Zsolt's name was still there on the paper.Hu: Gábor szeme megakadt néhány részleten, amit addig figyelmen kívül hagytak.En: Gábor caught sight of some details that had previously been overlooked.Hu: Miközben visszazökkentek a normális kerékvágásba, Gábor észrevette, hogy Katalin bizonyítékai erősebbek, mint először gondolták.En: As they returned to normal operations, Gábor noticed that Katalin's evidence was stronger than first thought.Hu: Amikor Katalin magához tért, látott néhány rendőrt, amint éppen Zsolt dolgait ellenőrizték.En: When Katalin regained consciousness, she saw some officers already checking Zsolt's matters.Hu: Az ajtó felé vezető úton látott emberek mosolya, és Gábor bátorító szavai jelentették, hogy az igazság végül napvilágra került.En: The smiles of people she saw on the way to the door and Gábor's encouraging words indicated that the truth had finally come to light.Hu: Katalin megkönnyebbült.En: Katalin felt relieved.Hu: Érezte, hogy a karácsonyi időszak most már békésebb lehet.En: She sensed that the Christmas season could now be more peaceful.Hu: A rendőrkapitányság ajtaja mögött a hó tovább hullott, de Katalin számára ez most már csak egy új fejezet kezdetét jelentette.En: Behind the door of the police station, the snow continued to fall, but for Katalin, this now marked the beginning of a new chapter.Hu: Tanulság: néha meg kell vívni a harcot az igazunkért, és a kitartás meghozza a gyümölcsét.En: Moral: Sometimes you have to fight for your truth, and persistence brings its rewards.Hu: Katalin most már tudta, hogy mindig harcolnia kell az igazságért, még ha elsőre mindenki kételkedik is benne.En: Katalin now knew she always had to fight for justice, even if everyone doubted her at first.

Send us a textCan salvation really be a choice, or is it a destiny prewritten by divine hands? Join us as we navigate the fascinating and sometimes controversial concept of predestination in our latest episode. By drawing from biblical scriptures like Romans 8 and Ephesians 1, we explore the idea that your path to salvation might not be as much in your hands as you think. We challenge the conventional belief in free will by considering God's sovereign plan, which may have been set in motion before the world began.Throughout our discussion, the transformative and unearned nature of salvation stands at the forefront. We emphasize that this divine gift cannot be achieved through personal effort or religious practices, but through God's grace alone. John 6:44 serves as a cornerstone, illustrating how belief in Christ follows God's initial call. Dive into the delicate interplay between faith, belief, and predestination, as we ponder the role of free will in the divine process.Finally, get ready to embrace the comforting embrace of God's irresistible grace. With reflections from the Gospel of John, we explore the enduring power of being "born again" and confront the notion of "once saved, always saved." Acknowledging human imperfections, we celebrate the unending grace that continually renews believers. We invite you to take solace in the joy and gratitude of this divine truth, trusting in God's grace and the purpose he weaves throughout our lives.Best Christian podcasts for spiritual growth, Bible study podcasts for beginners, Christian marriage advice podcast, Inspirational Christian podcasts for women, Daily devotional podcasts for busy Christians, Christian leadership podcasts for pastors, Christian mental health podcasts for anxiety, Faith-based podcasts for motivation, Bible teaching podcasts for in-depth study, Christian parenting podcasts for moms, Christian apologetics podcasts for teens, Christian podcasts for personal development, Top Christian podcasts for youth, Christian podcasts on faith and culture, Bible podcasts with verse-by-verse teaching, Best Christian podcasts on mental wellness, Christian podcast interviews with leaders, Christian inspirational podcasts for men, Worship and Christian music podcasts, Christian podcasts for family devotionals.Support the showhttps://www.pastorbencooper.co.uk/

November 20, 2024 Daily Devotion: "The Unyielding Faith” Daniel 3:28-30 New Living Translation 28 Then Nebuchadnezzar said, “Praise to the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego! He sent his angel to rescue his servants who trusted in him. They defied the king's command and were willing to die rather than serve or worship any god except their own God. 29 Therefore, I make this decree: If any people, whatever their race or nation or language, speak a word against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, they will be torn limb from limb, and their houses will be turned into heaps of rubble. There is no other god who can rescue like this!” 30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego to even higher positions in the province of Babylon. For a king who thought he was the most powerful person, we can understand his anger at the three men who challenged his authority. Nebuchadnezzar asked for the furnace to be heated seven times hotter than usual. It was so hot that the men who took Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego to the furnace died instantly. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego fell into the furnace still bound. It seemed to be a hopeless situation. However, God is greater than any created thing. God was about to show the king who had all power and authority. Suddenly, there were four men walking around untied in the fire. King Nebuchadnezzar described the fourth man as “Like that of a god!” Nebuchadnezzar himself went to the door of the furnace calling for the “servants of the most high God” to come out. What was meant to bring death, God used to reveal that He is the source of all life. Nebuchadnezzar praised the God who rescued Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego as well as their trust in Him for being willing to put their lives in danger rather than worship anyone else. He acknowledged that there is no other god who can deliver in this way. King Nebuchadnezzar still did not completely get it, but he was slowly understanding more of who God is. God, in His kindness, was still patiently calling him. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were able to rejoice in their sufferings, and it produced perseverance and hope. We, too, will face many trials for our faith. But as Paul writes, our sufferings do not “put us to shame” (Romans 5:5 ESV), We know that we serve the all-powerful God who is with us always, even through the fire. As they left the furnace, the people saw that Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were completely unharmed. Not even their clothes were affected, and they didn't even smell of fire! God completely protected them from every aspect of the fire. and it produced perseverance and hope.

In this episode, we sit down with 17-year-old Isa Alvidrez, a tenacious climate activist dedicated to advancing sustainability in her conservative Alabama hometown. Despite a lack of support—and often outright opposition—from her community and school administration, Isa continues her efforts, undeterred. She shares what it's like to be a climate activist surrounded by skeptics, and reflects on the irony of her town's deep appreciation for nature but distrust of climate science. She also opens up about her unique strategy for engaging climate deniers and the meaningful changes she's already implemented in her community. Isa's story captures the grit and determination of young advocates everywhere fighting for change in the face of resistance—especially when that resistance comes from a school administration that prioritizes new football fields over recycling bins.

Karen Read, charged twice in the death of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, has opened up about her ongoing legal battle, strained personal life, and unyielding quest for justice in an interview with *Vanity Fair*. Speaking to reporter Julie Miller, who was granted unrestricted access, Read shared insights into her life since O'Keefe's death and the impact of her highly publicized case. In what Vanity Fair described as a series of candid, in-home interviews, Read, 44, invited Miller to her former Mansfield residence in August. Read opened up about her relationship with O'Keefe, her pending retrial, and the toll her legal battles have taken. Miller reported that Read, who has been staying with family and friends, chose her previous home as the setting for the interviews. She was joined by a volunteer security guard, described by Miller as someone “who looks like John Cena and has a license to carry.” Facing an uncertain future, Read has prepared for the possibility of another arrest, keeping a Ziploc “go bag” on hand with essentials: Advil, melatonin, a toothbrush and toothpaste, a hairbrush, lipstick, and foundation, as well as her lawyer's phone number. “I'm not backing down now,” Read told Vanity Fair, despite the looming prospect of a life sentence if convicted. According to Read, she won't entertain the idea of a plea deal, even under the risk of severe penalties. “As scary as a potential conviction is, I will go to jail for something I didn't do before I plea out. I will never give them that win.” Read, a former Fidelity Investments analyst and Bentley University finance professor, has assembled a team of criminal defense attorneys, but the cost of her legal defense has been steep. She has sold her home to offset expenses and is now living off the remains of her 401(k), accruing more than $5 million in legal fees. “If I can get the entire truth of this case out in the public forum, that, to me, is priceless,” she said. At the core of her defense are allegations that O'Keefe, her boyfriend of two years, was the victim of a violent cover-up involving other Boston police officers. Prosecutors argue that Read deliberately ran him over in her SUV after an evening out on January 29, 2022, a claim her defense refutes, asserting that O'Keefe was beaten by others. In July, her case resulted in a mistrial, and her legal team has appealed to Massachusetts' Supreme Judicial Court to dismiss two of the charges ahead of a scheduled retrial in January. Reflecting on her relationship with O'Keefe, Read described challenges in their dynamic, with disagreements over his role as a disciplinarian for his niece and nephew, who lived with him. According to Read, O'Keefe struggled to mourn his late sister, the children's mother, and remained hesitant about seeking therapy. “I think that's part of his stock,” Read told Vanity Fair, “this Irish Catholic, south-of-Boston, rub-some-dirt-on-it, drink-through-your-problems mindset.” In detailing the night of O'Keefe's death, Read recalled attending a gathering at the Waterfall Bar & Grille in Canton, after which she and O'Keefe joined others at an afterparty. Feeling uneasy upon arrival, she sent O'Keefe inside, only to leave after he didn't return. She admitted to a fleeting thought that he might be “screwing around,” explaining, “I didn't think he was physically incapacitated.” She left him multiple voicemails before heading home. Prosecutors, who highlight Read's flirty exchanges with O'Keefe's acquaintance Brian Higgins, argue that these interactions hint at motives for the crime. In response, Read openly admitted to seeking validation from Higgins. “I knew Higgins found me attractive,” she said, “It helped me emotionally validate myself, which is embarrassing to admit.” Amid the stress of her case, Read has remained steadfast about her innocence. Addressing rumors that she implicated herself in texts, she explained to Vanity Fair that she and her attorney, David Yannetti, only began communicating after police seized her phone. She said she initially told her parents, “If I did anything in any way, I'll pay my dues. That's how this should work. I want to know the truth — good, bad, ugly.” Read's retrial is set to bring her story back into the public eye, with high stakes and public scrutiny on both her legal and personal lives.

I will never give them that win.” Read, a former Fidelity Investments analyst and Bentley University finance professor, has assembled a team of criminal defense attorneys, but the cost of her legal defense has been steep. She has sold her home to offset expenses and is now living off the remains of her 401(k), accruing more than $5 million in legal fees. “If I can get the entire truth of this case out in the public forum, that, to me, is priceless,” she said. At the core of her defense are allegations that O'Keefe, her boyfriend of two years, was the victim of a violent cover-up involving other Boston police officers. Prosecutors argue that Read deliberately ran him over in her SUV after an evening out on January 29, 2022, a claim her defense refutes, asserting that O'Keefe was beaten by others. In July, her case resulted in a mistrial, and her legal team has appealed to Massachusetts' Supreme Judicial Court to dismiss two of the charges ahead of a scheduled retrial in January. Reflecting on her relationship with O'Keefe, Read described challenges in their dynamic, with disagreements over his role as a disciplinarian for his niece and nephew, who lived with him. According to Read, O'Keefe struggled to mourn his late sister, the children's mother, and remained hesitant about seeking therapy. “I think that's part of his stock,” Read told Vanity Fair, “this Irish Catholic, south-of-Boston, rub-some-dirt-on-it, drink-through-your-problems mindset.” In detailing the night of O'Keefe's death, Read recalled attending a gathering at the Waterfall Bar & Grille in Canton, after which she and O'Keefe joined others at an afterparty. Feeling uneasy upon arrival, she sent O'Keefe inside, only to leave after he didn't return. She admitted to a fleeting thought that he might be “screwing around,” explaining, “I didn't think he was physically incapacitated.” She left him multiple voicemails before heading home. Prosecutors, who highlight Read's flirty exchanges with O'Keefe's acquaintance Brian Higgins, argue that these interactions hint at motives for the crime. In response, Read openly admitted to seeking validation from Higgins. “I knew Higgins found me attractive,” she said, “It helped me emotionally validate myself, which is embarrassing to admit.” Amid the stress of her case, Read has remained steadfast about her innocence. Addressing rumors that she implicated herself in texts, she explained to Vanity Fair that she and her attorney, David Yannetti, only began communicating after police seized her phone. She said she initially told her parents, “If I did anything in any way, I'll pay my dues. That's how this should work. I want to know the truth — good, bad, ugly.” Read's retrial is set to bring her story back into the public eye, with high stakes and public scrutiny on both her legal and personal lives.

Karen Read, charged twice in the death of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, has opened up about her ongoing legal battle, strained personal life, and unyielding quest for justice in an interview with *Vanity Fair*. Speaking to reporter Julie Miller, who was granted unrestricted access, Read shared insights into her life since O'Keefe's death and the impact of her highly publicized case. In what Vanity Fair described as a series of candid, in-home interviews, Read, 44, invited Miller to her former Mansfield residence in August. Read opened up about her relationship with O'Keefe, her pending retrial, and the toll her legal battles have taken. Miller reported that Read, who has been staying with family and friends, chose her previous home as the setting for the interviews. She was joined by a volunteer security guard, described by Miller as someone “who looks like John Cena and has a license to carry.” Facing an uncertain future, Read has prepared for the possibility of another arrest, keeping a Ziploc “go bag” on hand with essentials: Advil, melatonin, a toothbrush and toothpaste, a hairbrush, lipstick, and foundation, as well as her lawyer's phone number. “I'm not backing down now,” Read told Vanity Fair, despite the looming prospect of a life sentence if convicted.

Jesus travels to Judea where he is not always well received and is immediately confronted by Pharisees as regards his view on marriage and divorce. Referencing Deuteronomy, the Pharisees make the case that Moses allowed for divorce but Jesus moves earlier in the Biblical account to make his argument, citing two verses of Genesis. From Our Lord's words we glean a radical view of marriage, one that excludes divorce but that also affirms the image of the Trinity and the tremendous dignity of married love. In the end we find a God who is reckless in love and who desires that we be recklessly loving as well.

In 2011, Melinda Patrick's daughter came to her and confessed that she was experiencing same-sex attraction. Melinda, an avid follower of Jesus and an active member of her church community was completely caught off-guard, and, admittedly, didn't handle it well. On today's episode, Paige has a raw and honest conversation with Melinda about her ongoing journey with her daughter  - and how God in His goodness has worked to transform Melinda's heart - so she can love her daughter well and surrender her to Him. This is a truly powerful and timely conversation for any parent, family member, friend of a parent, or member of the church to learn from. Melinda's book, The Daring Rescue, is a hope-filled memoir pointing us back to the true pursuer and molder of our hearts. Paige's Takeaways:If your child shares something secret with you, don't panic!1st point of conversation should always be: Thank you for sharing that with me. I'm sure it was so hard to let me know what was going on with you.2nd point of conversation: I am so sorry that you have been struggling with this as long as you have and haven't felt comfortable coming to tell me. The topic of conversation can be secondary. Especially if it has deviated from your convictions.The Ministry of PresenceSometimes our kids just need us to be with them, to listen to them. We are designed for community. We need people around us. Be wary of shutting down and isolating - it can be so destructive!If you are not going through an issue like this with your child, but you have a friend or other family member who is:Your friend just needs you to see them and walk alongside them.Understand that grief may be playing a very large role in their life - show up in a loving, honoring way, even if you don't understand exactly what they are going through.Resources:Paige ClingenpeelQuestions About the Podcast?

Welcome to today's sermon podcast, where we delve into the powerful story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego from Daniel Chapter 3. In this concluding sermon of our summer series, we explore the themes of unwavering faith and God's protection in the midst of life's fiery trials. We begin with a light-hearted yet profound story of Chippy the parakeet, illustrating how unexpected circumstances can leave us feeling stunned and disheartened. This sets the stage for a deeper discussion on how to stand firm in our faith when faced with societal pressures and personal challenges. Through the example of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, we learn about the importance of resisting compromise, standing strong in our convictions, and trusting in God's presence and protection, even when the outcome is uncertain. Join us as we uncover the lessons from these three friends who faced the fiery furnace with courage and faith, and discover how their story can inspire us to remain steadfast in our own trials.

I am not pessimistic when I see the world in this current trouble because I also see many faithful Christians holding the line. We MUST be unyielding in our faith.

Host Avik welcomes the audience to “Healthy Mind, Healthy Life,” a podcast exploring the connection between mental and physical well-being. The guest, Rich, is introduced as a keynote speaker, endurance athlete, and the first amputee to commission as an army officer after losing his arm in combat. Rich shares his journey, starting from his affluent childhood in Georgia, where he felt disconnected from his hardworking father and sought identity in partying and sports. An academic scholarship led him to a military college, but after a failed first semester, he found himself homeless. This adversity led him to enlist in the army, where he discovered his purpose and excelled in basic training. During his first deployment in 2005, Rich's vehicle was hit by an IED, resulting in the loss of his arm. Despite the initial shock and a grim prognosis, Rich's determination and the quick actions of his platoon saved his life. He speaks about the immediate aftermath of the incident, the support from his fellow soldiers, and the loss of a close friend a month later. Rich's recovery process involved redefining his identity and embracing a growth mindset. He took up triathlons and, despite initial struggles, became proficient enough to challenge the army's policy on amputees serving as officers. With the help of a state senator during an internship, Rich successfully changed the policy and became the first amputee to commission as an officer. The episode concludes with Rich's message of never giving up, finding opportunities in setbacks, and the importance of a growth mindset in overcoming adversity.   Key Messages: Resilience and perseverance can redefine one's identity and purpose. Overcoming adversity often requires a shift from a fixed to a growth mindset. Success and recovery are processes that involve continuous effort and adaptation. The support of others can be crucial in times of hardship and recovery. Setting goals and persisting through challenges can lead to significant personal and systemic changes.
