 Is this 3rd Episode @ Sea Keith and Roxanne record from Viejo San Juan at Café Colajo, reflecting on travel, crowds, and how everyday interactions can trigger deeper reactions. They discuss the strain of being judged while traveling and the constant activation that comes from encountering unkind or presumptive people. They recount a painful experience in a boutique in the British Virgin Islands where body shaming and assumptions about privilege led them to choose a different response: breathing, protecting their peace, and changing the way they fight by using their voice later and reporting the incident rather than reacting in the moment.

New Year promises are easy; systems that run while you live your life are rare. We dig into why so many financial resolutions fail—vague aims, overreach, and zero follow‑through—and replace them with small, automatic moves that compound into real progress. Instead of chasing motivation, we show how to set a single automated decision that saves, invests, or pays debt without daily willpower, then pair it with one leak you'll cut for good.We start by reframing the goal: don't say “save more,” schedule a 1 percent increase in your savings rate or 401(k) deferral by your next paycheck. Anchor to paycheck-sized actions like $400 per pay period, not big annual numbers that never get traction. From there, we cover the safety layer—why an emergency fund and targeted debt payoff matter most when your job feels uncertain—and how that buffer protects you from high-interest setbacks. The theme is consistency over heroics, automation over intention.Then we talk joy. Vacations and experiences belong inside a smart financial plan, not in the “maybe later” pile. Price the trip, automate the transfers, and enjoy the feeling of a fully paid getaway without the credit card hangover. We even share a story about advising a high-achiever to plan a vacation to prevent burnout, plus a practical way to include a friend by aligning costs up front. Guilt-free spending is earned through planning, not luck, and it's a powerful motivator to keep your system running.By the end, you'll have a simple playbook: set one automated increase, cut one leak, build your safety net, and fund joy on purpose. While you're busy working, playing, and resting, your money will be moving in the right direction by default. If this helped you rethink your approach to money, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review so more listeners can build systems that stick.

Celebrating Life at 52: Lyndon Taylor's Scorpio Squad European Birthday JauntWhen CEO and entrepreneur Lyndon Taylor turned 52 in November 2025, he proved that adventure has no age limit. Following his unforgettable Bangkok birthday celebration in 2024, Taylor and his Scorpio Squad—a group of November-born friends—embarked on a two-week European escapade that would redefine milestone celebrations. From dancing until dawn in Barcelona's legendary clubs to witnessing the Eiffel Tower's nightly sparkle and navigating London's historic streets, this journey showcased how intentional travel can transform birthday celebrations into life-affirming experiences.The Scorpio Squad tradition emerged from the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, when Taylor missed celebrating his 50th birthday—a milestone many consider significant. Determined to make up for lost time, he connected with fellow Scorpio-born friends: one from Florida who kicks off Scorpio season on October 23rd, and another whose birthday falls on November 12th. Taylor himself celebrates on November 10th."I thought, hey, why not? I'm still here with good health. Let me go explore, make some memories, and have wonderful moments," Taylor explained during his appearance on Tripcast360. The group's chemistry stems from what Taylor describes as "vibrating on the right frequency"—a connection built over more than a decade of friendship.The tradition began with Bangkok in 2024, and for 2025, the squad set their sights on Europe. After Taylor's initial vote for Africa was vetoed due to vaccination concerns, the group settled on Spain, France, and England as their destinations, choosing Barcelona and Paris as anchor cities due to their proximity and reasonable pricing.Landing in Barcelona on November 8th, 2025, Taylor's European birthday celebration started with an auspicious welcome. His taxi driver, a single mother working in transport for 17 years, became an unexpected ambassador for the city. Their conversation flowed as if they were old friends, setting a warm tone for the entire trip.The group stayed at the Hampton by Hilton Barcelona Fira Gran, where front desk associate Victoria provided what Taylor calls a "cheat sheet"—a one-page guide covering train routes, city navigation, and budget-friendly activities. This personalized service exemplified the human connections that transformed the journey from a simple vacation into a meaningful cultural exchange.Barcelona's efficient public transportation system became the squad's primary mode of travel, with trains proving both affordable and convenient compared to taxis or rideshares. The decision to use public transit reflected the group's budget-conscious approach to European travel, where costs can quickly escalate.As Taylor's philosophy states: "Every day above ground is a gift." His 52nd birthday celebration across Europe proved that with gratitude, intention, and the right energy, that gift can be unwrapped anywhere in the world—one dance floor, one train ride, one magical moment at a time.Support the showTripCast360 --- It's all about travel, lifestyle and entertainment.Web: TripCast360.com.Twit: https://twitter.com/TripCast360FB: https://www.facebook.com/TripCast360Insta: https://www.instagram.com/tripcast360/

In this inspiring episode of the Leaders of Transformation podcast, host Nicole Jansen welcomes Kimberly Haley-Coleman, founder and executive director of GlobeAware - an award-winning nonprofit that has mobilized volunteers across more than 25 countries through service adventures that create lasting social impact. Kimberly shares how voluntourism, when done responsibly, goes far beyond traditional travel. These immersive experiences cultivate cross-cultural leadership, deepen human connection, and shift how people see the world - and themselves. From her own journey leaving the corporate world to building GlobeAware, Kimberly breaks down the power of meaningful service and the practical steps for participating in global volunteer projects.

You can be doing “everything right” and still feel off: poor sleep, low energy, brain fog, and slipping motivation. This episode reframes the hidden factor many high-performing men overlook: regular social drinking. If you're a man in your 40s or 50s who drinks “normally” but feels like your performance is sliding, Clifford Stephan shares why a longer, strategic break (not a quick dry month) can help you reset sleep, mood, cravings, and resilience, without shame or extreme labels. About the Guest: Clifford Stephan is the founder of Booze Vacation, a men's health movement for high-performing men in their 40s and 50s. He studied nutritional science at Cal Poly SLO and spent over 20 years running a consulting business in Silicon Valley. Key Takeaways: Use a 3 to 6 month break to truly re-stabilize sleep, mood, and stress response Track drinks, last drink time, and morning energy to spot patterns fast Build a “social game plan” so events stay fun without alcohol Expect cravings for sugar and caffeine when sleep is disrupted Focus on sequence: stop the disruptor first, then optimize diet, training, recovery How to Connect With the Guest: Website: https://boozevacation.com/  Men's health assessment quiz: https://boozevacation.scoreapp.com/  Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

This may be one of the most important podcasts I record for you. I'm sharing my system for taking control of my calendar—and I say most important because time is your most valuable asset. When you master how to manage it, it affects everything: your business, your family time, your health. This year alone, I started MSP Sales Partners from zero to $800K, added five full-time hires and 50+ customers, created content every week without missing a newsletter or YouTube video, had dinner with my kids almost every night, traveled for two and a half months over summer, took a fully-unplugged family trip to Spain and France, and managed 90 minutes to two hours of exercise seven days a week. I attribute ruthless time management to being able to do all of that. This episode breaks down my system: shift from reactive to proactive calendar management—stop playing defense and go on offense by designing "The Perfect Week" where you map out your ideal calendar with everything that matters (prospecting time, team meetings, exercise, kids' dinners, date nights), then lock those blocks in as busy so nobody can steal them back. Every Sunday, audit how the week went versus your perfect week, identify what's off and why, then fix it for the upcoming week. I also do quarterly off-site planning to identify the major business constraint and update my perfect week accordingly. Learn how to have the hard conversations to protect your time, why managing up and down requires showing people what's in it for them, and how this prevents the slow creep back to homeostasis where your calendar gets stolen again.//Welcome to Repeatable Revenue, hosted by strategic growth advisor , Ray J.

A little after 7:30 p.m. on August 10, 2018, 28 year old Richard "Beebo" Russell was a couple hours into his work shift as a ground service agent for Horizon Air at the Seattle-Tacoma Airport when he inexplicably got into an airplane tug, moved an Alaskan Airline Bombardier Q400 from where it was parked for the night onto a runway, he turned and lined it up as if it were getting ready to take off...and he jumped on board by himself, started the plane and took off on what would be the most significant security breach with a domestic airline since 9/11.  What happened to Beebo Russell and why would he do something so drastic knowing he wouldn't be able to land it?  Music from FMA by Blue Dot Sessions entitled "Deeps Highway"SOURCES:https://allthatsinteresting.com/richard-russellhttps://skyk.ing/transcripthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018_Horizon_Air_Bombardier_Q400_incidenthttps://www.thestranger.com/guest-editorial/2018/08/17/30824665/i-worked-with-richard-russell-at-horizon-air-and-i-understand-why-he-did-what-he-didhttps://an.aero/how-to-become-a-ground-agent/https://nypost.com/2018/08/13/remains-found-on-island-where-suicidal-plane-thief-crash-landed/LINKS:Patreon:  https://www.patreon.com/killaforniapodPayPal:  https://www.paypal.coCashm/paypalme/killaforniapodMerchandise:  https://killaforniadreamingpodcast.threadless.com/Website:  https://killaforniadreamingpodcast.buzzsprout.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KillaforniaDreamingPodcastFacebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/1296620370450345/Facebook Page:  https://www.facebook.com/killaforniadreamingInstagram:  https://www.instagram.com/killaforniadreamingpod/?hl=enX:  https://twitter.com/killaforniapodEmail:  killaforniapod@gmail.comTikTok:  @killaforniadreamingpod Cash App:  $KDpodcastSupport the show

Cheryl (67) and Michael (69) have built rich, full lives: multiple careers, reinventions, and nearly 12 years of marriage. Yet when it comes to money, they feel stuck. They earn about $120,000 a year, have roughly $600,000 saved, and regularly book $10,000–$15,000 vacations focused on travel, family, and experiences. Then, almost immediately, panic sets in. With mostly separate finances, lingering trust issues from past decisions, and no clear retirement plan, they're embarrassed to admit that they don't actually know when (or if) they can retire. Cheryl wants clarity and confidence about the future, while Michael wrestles with fear, guilt, and uncertainty around spending and security. Can Ramit help them stop oscillating between YOLO travel and financial anxiety, and finally create a plan that lets them enjoy life without fear? In this episode we uncover: • Why Cheryl and Michael can easily book $10K–$15K vacations, then immediately panic • How a “dream trip” exposes deeper confusion about what money they actually have access to • How Michael losing $12,000 from an inheritance investment triggered feelings of betrayal • Cheryl's cancer survival and how living with mortality reshaped her urgency to travel, spend, and fully live now • Michael's discomfort with seeing money as “real” unless it's physically accessible • Why keeping finances mostly separate makes it nearly impossible to feel confident about retirement • The emotional weight of being the higher earner • How early family money stories still shape Michael's decisions today • Cheryl's journey from Wall Street wealth to purpose-driven work • Why spending in retirement feels scarier than earning ever did • How “YOLO travel” and hyper-frugality coexist • What their Conscious Spending Plan reveals about low fixed costs, high freedom, and misplaced fear • Why having a financial advisor still didn't give them clarity or peace of mind Chapters: (00:00:00) “I'm just doing this for Cheryl” (00:23:13) Ramit breaks down their numbers (00:45:23) “If we're not on the same page, it'll be an ugly retirement” (01:08:29) “Am I worth it now—or am I still that kid asking permission?” (01:10:01) “We never talked about money when we met” (01:23:10) “If we retire now… will it feel like freedom—or fear?” (01:36:38) Where are they now?

David Choe is a world-renowned artist, writer, podcaster and TV host. He tells how as a child, he was made to believe he was destined for greatness but also that he was a complete disgrace, leading him to channel his energy—including deep shame—into art that brought him global recognition. He shares about his addictions that put him on a decades-long cycle of extreme highs and lows and that forced him to eventually acknowledge and heal the childhood trauma he was battling inside. David shows up with raw, authentic presence to show us how we can transmute pain and shame into our best creative work and, more importantly, how complete vulnerability, especially about our hardest experiences, is the ultimate tool for forgiveness and self-acceptance. He also tells us the actual story about early Facebook, Pee-wee Herman and Santa Claus. Note: This conversation includes topics and language that may not be suitable for younger audiences.
