THE Georgia Bulldogs assert dominance with a suffocating defense and a rapidly improving offense. Can Kirby Smart's squad power their way to another College Football Playoff run? The conversation focused on standout talents like Chris Cole, whose freakish physicality and versatility put him among the elite linebackers, and sophomore phenom Juan Gaston, described as one of college football's rarest physical specimens anchoring the offensive line.A key theme that emerged was Georgia's youth, speed, and violent run defense, complemented by GunnEr Stockton's veteran leadership at quarterback. Several points were raised, including concerns over Stockton's ability to layer throws under pressure and the Bulldogs' ability to adapt when facing elite secondaries. The discussion explored national rankings, breakout players like Nate Frazier, and the coaching prowess of Glenn Schumann. Can this well-oiled machine keep rolling all the way to a national title, or will injuries and offensive limitations create obstacles?Support us by supporting our sponsors!KALSHIFor a limited time, Download Kalshi and use code Locked On to get $25 when you trade $25.

Despite fan expectations after the firing of James Franklin, Penn State's roster is not nearly as talented as it was under the former head coach. That's caused quite a bit of outrage from Nittany Lions fans. How does Matt Campbell fix the issue? Zach Seyko and Brian Smith break down Penn State's close loss, highlight the impact of injuries to key players like wide receiver Koby Howard, and compare the Nittany Lions' progress to instant turnarounds at Indiana and UCLA.Recruiting momentum remains a silver lining, with the 2028 and 2029 classes trending up and blue-chip prospects like James Armstrong and Deonte Flemings on the radar. The conversation spotlights the challenges of NIL funding, the importance of long-term development, and Campbell's regional recruiting strategy. Is patience the missing ingredient for Penn State's return to college football's elite, or are fans justified in demanding immediate results under the new regime?Support us by supporting our sponsors!KALSHIFor a limited time, Download Kalshi and use code Locked On to get $25 when you trade $25.

USC Trojans fans demand answers as Lincoln Riley faces mounting pressure after the team's disappointing performances–including the latest versus the Oregon Ducks–and questions about program culture. Are the Trojans headed for a coaching reset in Los Angeles, or can Riley turn things around and meet the sky-high expectations at one of college football's most historic programs?Brian Smith and Marc Kulkin break down USC's recent defensive struggles, highlight concerns over discipline following the Desmon Stephens targeting controversy, and analyze why a talented roster continues to underperform—especially with the run defense ranked just 54th nationally. The conversation covers the aftermath of how USC players acted after Dante Moore's injury, how USC practices, and USC insider reactions. Will the Trojans' leadership make changes, or stay the course as Washington and Penn State loom large on the schedule?Support us by supporting our sponsors!KALSHIFor a limited time, Download Kalshi and use code Locked On to get $25 when you trade $25.

The college football coaching carousel is heating up as Mike Norvell, Brent Venables, Shane Beamer, and Lincoln Riley find themselves under fire amid disappointing seasons for Florida State, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and USC.

The internet will tell you how to “win” a VA claim. Almost none of it is how the exam is actually written.Will spent 11 years Navy EOD, 9 as a SOF medic, and now sits as a National Guard battalion PA. In the middle he worked the other side of the table: third-party C&P exams. Meet the veteran. Fill the cookie-cutter form. Ship it to the VA actuaries. He never got Genesis. He got whatever dump the system decided was fit to send — problem lists, notes, radiology reports, and every PHA where you checked “no” to stay deployable.What the examiner is hunting: a diagnosis, a nexus event, and a physical that matches the story. Range of motion. Special tests. Flare-ups. Work. ADLs. If they only asked questions and never touched you, that exam is incomplete. Say so.SOF and aviation make this worse on purpose. Pipelines punish honesty. Team medics hand out diclofenac and toradol and skip the note so the guy keeps special duty pay. That is loyalty on Friday and a missing nexus on the way out.Will's practical kit: be honest on the late-career PHA. Print the DD-214s, V-device awards, schools, and the pages that prove exposure — because the current MOS on the screen may say PA while the tinnitus came from being an 18D. You have 10–15 minutes per condition. Do not make them scroll 2,000 pages.Read 38 U.S.C. § 1155. Use VA.gov. Ask the teammates who already finished the process.prolongedfieldcare.org | @prolonged_field_care | PFC PodcastTop 5 takeawaysThe examiner is not in your EHR. They get a curated PDF. If the note, x-ray report, or PHA is not in that dump, it does not exist that day unless you hand it to them.Late-career PHAs are evidence. Battalion medicine may ignore them. The VA file does not. Stop auto-checking “no.”Nexus plus diagnosis plus a matching physical. No in-service diagnosis makes the hill steeper. “Audio has to match the video” — a perfect straight-leg raise after a “debilitating” claim is a problem.SOF culture writes the denial years early. Off-book gel and ketorolac keep people on the team and delete the paper trail. The C&P form cannot rate what was never documented.Run the exam like a 15-minute hit. Tab DD-214s, awards, schools, and the pages for this appointment. Current MOS can hide prior blast and gunship time.

Christians often think about stewardship in terms of giving, saving, and spending. But if God owns everything He has entrusted to us, stewardship also raises another question: What about the companies we own through our investments?Harry Pearson, Founder and CEO of OneAscent, says that question became increasingly important in his own journey of faith and finance. OneAscent is a family of companies that equips advisors and investors with faith-aligned solutions for planning, investing, and giving.For Pearson, connecting biblical convictions with investing began with a broader realization: Faith should shape every part of our financial lives.Connecting Faith With the Rest of Our FinancesPearson grew up in a home where generosity was modeled well. His parents taught him to tithe from an early age. For every dollar he earned, he put a dime in the offering plate.What he had not learned, however, was how to connect his faith with the rest of his financial life.That began to change about 18 years ago when he attended his first Kingdom Advisors Conference. Pearson remembers arriving somewhat resistant, but the experience challenged him to consider what it would look like to align his work with the faith God had already planted in his heart.Colossians 3:23 became an important lens: “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.”That principle extends beyond our occupations. If everything belongs to God, then our time, abilities, and financial resources are all things we manage on His behalf.The question becomes not simply, “What do I want to do with what I have?” but, “How can I faithfully steward what God has entrusted to me?”Passing Along Values, Not Just ValuablesThat perspective also changes the way we think about leaving a legacy.Families often devote significant attention to the valuables they hope to leave the next generation—homes, savings, investments, and other assets. Pearson believes Christians should give just as much attention to the values they are passing along.Rather than focusing only on leaving a legacy, he encourages families to think about living one.Children often learn stewardship less from formal lessons than from what they regularly observe. They see how their parents talk about money, respond to financial pressure, practice generosity, and decide what matters most.That gives parents an opportunity to invite their children into the stewardship process.Let them see generosity practiced. Allow them to participate in serving others. Talk with them about why your family chooses to support particular ministries or causes. Those conversations can help the next generation understand not merely what the family owns, but why it uses money the way it does.After all, preparing the next steward is about more than transferring assets. It is about cultivating wisdom and faithfulness in the person who may one day receive them.Do You Know What You Own?The same stewardship framework applies to investing.Many investors purchase mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, or other investments without knowing much about the individual companies they indirectly own. Pearson believes that is worth examining.If God is the ultimate owner of our resources, Christians can thoughtfully consider whether the businesses in their portfolios align with their biblical convictions.That begins with a simple question: Do you know what you own?For some investors, looking beneath the surface of a portfolio may reveal companies or business activities they would not knowingly choose to support. That realization has helped drive the growth of faith-based and values-aligned investing.At OneAscent, Pearson says the investment process includes three broad steps: eliminating companies whose activities conflict with certain biblical convictions, carefully evaluating the remaining investment opportunities, and seeking businesses that are making a positive contribution through the products and services they provide.The goal is not merely to avoid certain companies. It is to think more intentionally about what ownership means and how investment capital is being used.Can Values-Aligned Investing Be Financially Responsible?One concern surrounding faith-based investing has historically been whether applying values to a portfolio necessarily requires sacrificing investment performance.Pearson says the field has developed considerably over the past decade. There are now longer track records, more investment options, and increasingly sophisticated approaches to portfolio construction.But he has also come to appreciate that values-aligned investing is not only about selecting investments. It can also influence investor behavior.When investors consider their principles before markets become volatile, they may be better prepared to stay disciplined when uncertainty arrives. Rather than making emotional decisions in the moment, they can return to an investment philosophy they have already thoughtfully established.For Christians, that provides another opportunity to move from simply knowing what they believe to putting those beliefs into practice.Bringing Stewardship Into the PortfolioFaithful stewardship touches far more than the offering plate. It shapes how we earn, spend, save, give, plan, and prepare the next generation. And for Christians who own investments, it can also shape the way they think about the businesses represented in their portfolios.That does not mean every Christian will make identical investment decisions. But it does mean we can approach investing prayerfully and thoughtfully, remembering that the resources under our care ultimately belong to God.OneAscent helps advisors and investors explore how their financial lives and investments align with their biblical values, including through a portfolio analysis.To learn more, visit OneAscent.com/FaithFi.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'll turn 65 in January and am considering disability because my school job is becoming harder to manage.

What happens after a VA disability claim lands on a rating specialist's desk? For The MisFitNation's 700th episode, Jake and Stephen welcome U.S. Army veteran and retired VA Rating Specialist Dewayne Kimble to The Toosday Crüe. Dewayne takes listeners inside the claims process: how a rater reviews service records and medical evidence, what a C&P exam needs to address, and why a veteran's lay statement can matter. He explains the mistakes he sees with oversized evidence submissions and unnecessary nexus letters, then shares what to check in a rating decision—even when the claim is approved. The conversation covers BDD claims for transitioning service members, buddy statements, MOS-related evidence, appeals, and presumptive conditions. Dewayne also tells the story of rescuing two children from a house fire in Germany, an act that earned him the Soldier's Medal and changed how he approached his Army service. Whether you are preparing your first claim, reviewing a decision, or helping another veteran, Dewayne's message is clear: “Don't Be Frustrated – Get Educated.” Explore Dewayne's educational resources at kmd89.com, learn about his speaking work at dewaynekimble.com, and connect with The MisFitNation at themisfitnation.com.

Al poco tiempo de llegar al poder, Stalin ordenó que León Trotsky desapareciese de todas imágenes de la revolución bolchevique. Los demás permanecían en las fotos, pero, para la historia oficial, parecía como si Trotsky jamás hubiese existido. En "1984", la novela de George Orwell, el Ministerio de la Verdad destruye los registros del pasado y crea otros nuevos para controlar la mente de los ciudadanos. En la prensa deportiva española sucede algo parecido, aquello que no interesa al relato oficial desaparece y jamás es mencionado, aunque se trate de un gigantesco elefante en medio de la habitación.

How do you catch 24+ pounds of bass in roughly 90 minutes on the James River and Chickahominy River? Chaz and Jared break down their Elite 70 tournament win, including the perfect tidal window, an 8-pound largemouth, forward-facing sonar, the Koike bait, offshore cover, and the decisions that turned one morning into a winning Virginia bass fishing performance.The guys explain why they committed to making the run to the upper Chickahominy, how incoming tide, low light, current, grass, brush piles and stumps positioned the fish, and how LiveScope helped expose bass they already knew were living offshore. The result was a rapid flurry of big fish—including 4- and 5-pounders, a topwater fish and the massive 8-pounder that changed the tournament.We also get deep into the current state of James River and Chickahominy River bass fishing. Chaz and Jared discuss fishing pressure, tournament traffic, changing grass, drought and salinity, F1 bass stocking, why weights aren't carrying as deep through tournament fields, and why the upper Chick continues to produce giant largemouth even when other areas struggle.Plus, we talk about one of the hottest baits in tournament bass fishing—the Koike—and why they believe it isn't just a forward-facing sonar bait. From fishing it around offshore cover to throwing it without LiveScope, the guys explain why this unusual bait continues catching pressured bass in tidal fisheries.Topics include: • James River bass fishing • Chickahominy River bass fishing • Summer tidal bass fishing • How tide positions largemouth bass • Forward-facing sonar and LiveScope • Koike bait fishing • Offshore brush piles and stumps • Grass lines and tidal current • Tournament fishing pressure • Virginia bass tournament strategy • The changing James River fishery • BFL, MLF and tournament bass fishingIf you fish the James, Chickahominy, Potomac or any tidal bass fishery, there is a ton of information in this conversation about timing, pressure, offshore bass and knowing when to abandon your normal patterns.Sponsor List for episode description: Please support Fishing the DMV on Patreon!!! https://patreon.com/FishingtheDMVPodcast If you are interested in being on the show or a sponsorship opportunity, please reach out to me at fishingtheDMV@gmail.comGreen Top: https://www.greentop.com/ Jake's bait & Tackle Website: http://www.jakesbaitandtackle.com/ Fishing Pro Tech: https://www.facebook.com/FishingProTech Phone Number: (757) 566-1278 Email: lin@fishingprotech.us Fishing Pro Tech Address: 7812-A Richmond Road, Toano, VA, United States, 23168 Flint Financial Planning: https://www.flintfinancialplanning.com/ FITT Lures: https://bit.ly/4w5lgHt Max4 Fishing: https://max4fishing.com/#fishing #bassfishing #fishingreport #JamesRiver #ChickahominyRiver #BassFishing #VirginiaFishing #FishingTheDMVSupport the show

Mortgage rates today: inflation came in cooler than expected, and that's good news for homebuyers and homeowners watching the bond market. PCE, the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge, held at 3.4% when the market expected 3.7%. In this update I break down what that means for mortgage rates and what's most likely to happen over the next few weeks.

Pagājušajā nedēļā, no 23. līdz 25. septembrim, Ķīnas prezidents Sji Dziņpins valsts vizītē apmeklēja ASV, kur Vašingtonā tikās ar Savienoto Valstu prezidentu Donaldu Trampu. Šī bija Sji pirmā valsts vizīte ASV pēdējo desmit gadu laikā. Serbijas prezidents Aleksandrs Vučičs paziņoja, ka atkāpjas no amata un turpmāk vairs nebūs valsts galva. Tomēr no politikas prom viņš neies. Ukrainas prezidenta Volodimira Zelenska uzruna ANO Ģenerālajā asamblejā radījusi nepatīkamu spriedze attiecībās ar Dienvidkoreju. Aktualitātes analizē politologs, Latvijas Universitātes pasniedzējs Andis Kudors, portāla "LSM.lv" ārzemju ziņu redaktore Ieva Strazdiņa un atvaļināts vēstnieks Gints Jegermanis.

Šī bija Sji pirmā valsts vizīte ASV pēdējo desmit gadu laikā. Donalds Tramps Ķīnas līderi sagaidīja pie pašas lidmašīnās, kas līdz šim nav bijis novērojams citu valstu līderu vizītēs ASV. Sarunu centrā bija abu valstu ekonomiskās attiecības. -- Pagaidām var tikai minēt, vai tā bija paša Ukrainas prezidenta iniciatīva, vai vainīgs ir kāds no viņa komandas, kas gatavoja prezidenta uzrunu, taču ANO Ģenerālajā asamblejā Volodimirs Zelenskis pieminēja, ka divi sagūstītie Ziemeļkorejas pilsoņi, par kuru notveršanu savulaik ukraiņi ļoti aktīvi stāstīja, ir nosūtīti uz Dienvidkoreju. Iespējams, plašsaziņas līdzekļi šai detaļai nebūtu pievērsuši īpašu uzmanību, taču neslēptu sašutumu par to pauda Dienvidkorejas prezidents. -- Svētdienas vakarā Serbijas prezidents Aleksandrs Vučičs paziņoja, ka atkāpjas no amata un turpmāk vairs nebūs valsts galva.

Teaming with a service disabled veteran owned small business is one of the fastest paths into VA hospital contracting for small businesses locked out by the executive order requiring SDVOSB set-asides. In this episode, Eric Coffie breaks down the exact approach he used on both sides of the teaming table, from finding the right SDVOSB partner to structuring subcontracting, teaming, and joint venture relationships that grow both firms. If you're a capable contractor watching VA opportunities pass you by, this is the playbook. How the VA's SDVOSB set-aside rule works and why non-veteran contractors need a teaming strategy to access that work The "date before you marry" framework: start as a subcontractor, move to teaming, and build toward a joint venture over time Why starting with a small unbondable project (under the bonding threshold) protects both partners and proves the relationship works How to make the partnership mutually beneficial so your SDVOSB partner commits exclusively instead of shopping other teammates Free and low-cost resources for vetting agreements, including SBDCs, APEX/PTACs, and veteran business organizations, before spending money on attorneys EPISODE CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Why SDVOSB teaming opens VA hospital contracts 0:44 - Mavis asks how to use veteran certifications 1:13 - Rule of two and VA set-aside requirements explained 2:11 - Finding the right SDVOSB partner to team with 3:11 - Making the teaming relationship mutually beneficial 4:09 - Vetting your partner and starting with small projects 5:08 - How Eric built his own team through a teaming deal 6:36 - The woman owned firm that grew through partnership 7:34 - Understanding affiliation rules under FAR regulations 8:31 - Free resources and how to vet attorneys for agreements Mindy gives you the federal opportunities, agency signals, recompete intel, and pursuit briefs that tell you not just what contracts exist, but which ones to chase and how to win them.

What if the biggest barrier to getting help in your business isn't finding the right person, but finding someone who understands your reality as a small business owner? Julia Bernzott discovered this firsthand when she couldn't afford the high minimums most virtual assistant companies demanded. Her solution was revolutionary: create a VA service with options as low as two hours per month. Julia's journey from mineral makeup entrepreneur to founder of Breathe Easy Virtual Office Assistant LLC reveals how she built a thriving business by removing the traditional barriers that keep small business owners stuck doing everything themselves.Through her innovative approach of starting clients hourly with no commitments, Julia has created something rare in the VA world: genuine flexibility that matches the unpredictable nature of entrepreneurship. Her emphasis on Zoom calls over emails, US-based assistants, and treating each client relationship as a partnership has built a referral-based business that thrives on trust. You'll discover why her 'test it out' philosophy works better than rigid contracts, how she handles the chaos of varying client needs, and the mindset shifts that helped her embrace the natural ebbs and flows of business ownership.Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? The Podcast Growth Partner helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.Start your free 3-day trial: PodcastGrowthPartner.comWant personalized podcast strategy support?

Miami Hurricanes are flying under the radar, but could this be their year for a national championship push? With key starters like Xavier Lucas and O.J. Frederique battling injuries, Miami's playoff hopes may hinge on a fully healthy secondary and improved offensive line play. The conversation focused on Mario Cristobal's conservative approach, the need to unleash Darian Mensah's arm, and how playmakers Malachi Toney and Cooper Barkate give the Hurricanes one of the most dynamic offenses in college football.The discussion explored quarterback struggles around the nation, spotlighting disappointing performances from Oklahoma's Mattier and Texas A&M's Marcel Reed, along with rising concerns about technique and consistency for names like Arch Manning and Josh Hoover. Several points were raised, including Miami's path through the ACC, the significance of upcoming clashes with Clemson and Notre Dame, and whether this roster can finally fulfill its championship potential.

The Department of Veterans Affairs has spent the past several years building the governance, infrastructure and workforce needed to scale artificial intelligence across the nation's largest integrated health care system. Now, VA is increasingly focused on turning that foundation into practical applications that improve care and services for veterans. Acting Chief AI Officer Kimberly McManus discussed how VA's AI strategy has evolved and how the agency is measuring its impact. This includes a 22% decrease in opioid overdose mortality and general-purpose tools that employees say save them six hours per week. McManus also outlined how VA is measuring AI's impact on quality of care, access to care, turnaround times and employee productivity.

In this episode of Autism for Badass Moms, host Rashidah sits down with Andrea Jordan, a Chicago-area mom of three whose 8-year-old daughter, Zuri, was diagnosed with Level 3 autism shortly before turning three. Andrea opens up about receiving Zuri's diagnosis during an already difficult chapter in her marriage, the loneliness she experienced, and what life has looked like since her divorce. She shares the realities of parallel parenting, advocating for services when both parents are not always on the same page, and carrying the weight of appointments, school needs, insurance battles, and major decisions.She also shares one of her greatest sources of comfort: knowing that Zuri has two older brothers who love her fiercely and can help advocate for her when she cannot advocate for herself.Two years after her divorce, Andrea is still rebuilding—balancing motherhood, a 13-year career with the VA, family, friendships, fitness, healing, and the dreams she still wants to pursue.In this episode, we discuss:1.0 – Meet Andrea1:04 – Early Signs of Autism2:04 – Autism Research2:29 – Early Intervention3:10 – Denial3:49 – Emotional Impact4:38 – He Wants a Divorce5:41 – Beginning Therapy9:56 – The Turning Point10:14 – Marriage Retreat & Final Realization10:44 – Filing for Divorce11:25 – Parallel Parenting11:46 – 50/50 Custody15:27 – Attempts at Co-Parenting17:44 – Involving Children in Conflict21:15 – Back to Court29:31 – Gym as a Mental Escape35:45 – Advice for MomsABOUT OUR GUESTAndrea Jordan is a poet.

Dawn Stensland opens the show with the real-time launch of America.gov, a brand-new federal website featuring an AI assistant designed to help citizens navigate government services, cut red tape, and combat online fraud. Dawn breaks down how the streamlined portal could drastically shorten VA benefit wait times for veterans, sharing personal memories of her grandfather, a Purple Heart recipient who survived Iwo Jima. The crew reacts to audio of President Trump presenting the initiative alongside administration officials and tech leaders, highlighting efforts under Vice President Vance that uncovered over $260 billion in federal fraud. Dawn turns to regional politics and safety concerns, addressing recent vandalism targeting Senator Susan Collins' office in Maine and calling out double standards in media coverage surrounding political vitriol against female leaders. Dawn also addresses ongoing issues in Bucks County school districts following unruly youth crowds at local football games, emphasizing that lenient policies and a lack of support for police directly contribute to repeated teenage vandalism and suburban disorder. Later in the program, Congressman Ryan McKenzie joins Dawn to discuss the bipartisan Ratepayer Protection Act, designed to ensure massive data centers cover their fair share of local energy and water infrastructure costs. Congressman McKenzie details the impact of state fast-track permitting, pushes for parents' rights to prevent foreign political indoctrination in local classrooms, and directly calls out opponent Bob Brooks for dodging debates and refusing to answer tough financial questions ahead of upcoming mail-in voting.

Mortgage rates are at 7.5% today, up from 5.99% in March, and the housing market would need to fall about 14% to bring your payment back. I break down the Case-Shiller home price report, the PCE inflation number, and why I see a 70% chance the Federal Reserve raises rates at its next meeting.

Kako je moguće da maleni softverski projekt u manje od godinu dana postane vodeći sustav u svojoj branši širom Balkana pa sve do Švicarske? U ovoj novoj epizodi podcasta ugostila sam Dunju Deket, IT poduzetnicu čiji se rad nalazi na samom spoju tehnologije, razvoja biznisa, prodaje i marketinga. Dunja se bavi građenjem digitalnih proizvoda i biznisa: od prepoznavanja prilika na tržištu i razvoja brenda, do prodaje, rada s klijentima i skaliranja. Jedan od projekata iza kojih stoji je upravo Andrea 360, regionalna SaaS platforma i specijalizirano CRM rješenje za fitness, wellness i beauty industriju. U razgovoru smo se dotaknule toga kako su fitness centri, wellness centri i spa centri prepoznali vrijednost ove platforme, ali i kako je Dunja, koju najviše pokreće proces stvaranja - od prve ideje i testiranja na tržištu do izgradnje proizvoda koji imaju svoje korisnike i prostor za rast - prebrodila vlastite blokade prema prodaji te kroz kontinuiranu edukaciju i promjenu mindseta ostvarila strelovit poslovni uzlet.Osim tehničkih i strategijskih aspekata koji direktno utječu na prodaju i održiv rast prihoda, otvoreno smo razgovarale i o izazovima koji prate naglo skaliranje poslovanja. Dunja je sa mnom podijelila svoje uvidje o reorganizaciji osobnih prioriteta, upravljanju svakodnevnim izazovima bez žrtvovanja privatnog mira, promjeni odnosa s okolinom te važnosti nagrađivanja same sebe na tom putu. Ako te zanima kako vrhunsko CRM rješenje pomaže da wellness centri, spa centri i fitness centri unaprijede svoje poslovanje, ili tražiš konkretnu inspiraciju kako da prodaja i rast prihoda postanu prirodan rezultat tvog predanog rada, sigurna sam da će ti ova epizoda donijeti neprocjenjive lekcije.Ukoliko želiš planiranje pretvoriti u svoj najsnažniji alat za osobni rast i napokon ostvariti ciljeve bez odgađanja vlastitog života, klikni na link i pridruži mi se u edukaciji Mentor pri ruci https://saraperanic.com/mentor-pri-ruci/U epizodi ćeš saznati:Kako je nastala i skalirala platforma Andrea 360: Put od studentskog projekta do vodećeg sustava koji transformira poslovanje za fitness centre, wellness centre i spa centre širom Balkana i Švicarske.Koje su 3 ključne stvari preokrenule Dunjinu prodaju: Kako prijeći put od početnika u prodaji do zatvaranja velikih klijenata kroz izlaganje, edukaciju i novu percepciju prodajnih razgovora.Zašto je prodaja tvoja dužnost prema klijentu: Kako promjena fokusa sa vlastitog srama na potrebe idealnog klijenta izravno donosi rast prihoda.Kako se nositi s promjenom okoline pri skaliranju biznisa: Istina o filtriranju prijateljstava, postavljanju zdravih granica i prihvaćanju podrške obitelji bez traženja njihove poslovne potvrde.Metodu silaznog planiranja za očuvanje unutarnjeg mira: Kako svakodnevno „gašenje požara“ promatrati iz ptičje perspektive i izbjeći sagorijevanje dok gradiš veliku tvrtku.Važnost nagrađivanja same sebe na putu rasta: Zašto je materijalna nagrada važan podsjetnik na to koliko si napredovala i koliko dopuštaš sebi da zaslužuješ uspjeh.Dunju možeš zapratiti:https://www.instagram.com/andrea360_app/?hl=hr
