What you think of yourself is directly correlated with the kind of man you are or will become. If you believe yourself to be a victim of circumstances beyond your control, you will be. If, alternatively, you believe the world is conspiring for your benefit, it will be. It is quite literally self-fulfilling prophesy. My guest today, Jay Jairdullo, knows exactly what this is like after spending 25 years in law enforcement and now a college wrestling coach, he has had to redefine himself over and over again. Today, Jay and I talk about what he calls “false masculinity,” avoiding slipping back into old patterns, the importance of core values, overcoming the victimhood mentality, and keeping yourself and others off pedestals you don't belong.

Phillips, in the Preface to The Book of Revelation:  "In this book the translator is carried into another dimension... He is carried, not into some never-never land of fancy, but into the ever-ever land of God's eternal Values and Judgements". "Although the majority of Christians quite cheerfully accept the inclusion of this mysterious book within the New Testament canon, my strong impression is that very few of them have read it in any detail." On Revelation, from the autobiography The Price of Success: "Certain themes emerge distinctly for the modern reader's profit: (a) The absolute sovereignty of God, and his ultimate purpose to destroy all forms of evil. (b) The inevitable judgments of God upon evil, upon the worship of false gods, which include riches, power and success. (c) The necessity for patient endurance, the ultimate security being the knowledge that God is in control of history (d) The existence of reality, represented here under such symbols as the New Jerusalem, set apart and secure from the battles and tribulations of earthly life, promises complete spiritual security to those who are faithful to God and his Christ.

In this episode, guest speaker, FW board member, and member of the Keep Calm community Lou Huesmann explains that self-differentiation requires clarity about what really matters to us. If we are not really clear on our values, we will be influenced and pressured by the values of everyone around us. According to Edwin Friedman, self-differentiation is the ability to claim your goals and values in the midst of surrounding togetherness pressure. To help make this concept more tangible, Lou wraps up by sharing some wonderful guiding principles - or values - from author Jenny Brown in her book Growing Yourself Up.This episode was recorded on September 12, 2025.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!Emotional intelligence is not soft. It is how you stop letting feelings run the show and start letting values drive your choices. In this Mindset Monday I break down what emotional intelligence really is, why it decides the quality of your marriage, fatherhood, and career, and how to build it with simple daily reps. We walk through the five components of emotional intelligence , real-life ways they show up, and three drills you can use today: Name it, don't numb it, the 90 second pause before you respond, and a one line empathy check in that reduces defensiveness and builds trust. If you have ever said “I'll do better” and then reacted the same way next week, this is your playbook.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!Online Course: www.independentlystrong.comUse code WHEELIES75 for 75% off the entire course!Soberlink Device:www.soberlink.com/wheelsCheck out our blog:https://twfo.com/blogFollow us on TikTok:https://tiktok.com/@twfo_coupleFollow us on Instagram:https://instagram.com/twfo_couple/Follow us on Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TWFOCoupleFollow us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@twfo_coupleFind Taylor Counseling Group:https://taylorcounselinggroup.com/Donate to Counseling for the Future Foundation:Donate Here

On this Salcedo Storm Podcast: Chris and Sean discuss the fallout in culture, law and politics from the Charlie Kirk assasination. 

What does it mean to truly thrive as a leader? Rand Selig, veteran investment banker and founder of Selig Capital Group, shares how he left Wall Street to design a firm—and a life—built on intention. By limiting his clients to five at a time, he created space to be present with family, serve his community, and still build an award-winning company.Rand highlights the difference between management and leadership. Management is about efficiency, but leadership ensures the ladder is leaning against the right wall. Leaders articulate the “why” that inspires people and then step aside to let talent thrive. His four career sabbaticals also reconnected him with purpose and prevented burnout.True leadership means living by values, not external expectations. Are you climbing the right wall? Do your people feel they get to work or that they have to? Thriving personally allows us to create the conditions for others to thrive as well.

Drawing on Scripture and history, discover how Christians can respond with righteousness, resist demonization, and steer our nation toward true flourishing—before it's too late.

I realized that authenticity, freedom, self-love, and financial independence aren't just “nice to have,” they're literally the blueprint for my entire reality.

I want you to not just hear my stories, but to start writing down your own non-negotiables and embodying them like your life depends on it, bc it does.

Key takeaways Start with permission: ask, “Am I allowed to want something different?” Then imagine alternatives before acting. Define “achievement” for yourself—not for LinkedIn, bosses, or family. Success must map to your values. Expect value shifts: life events (loss, mental health, family) change what “fits.” A once-great job can become misaligned. Measure reality: honestly rate your work happiness out of 100. If you're at ~30%, plan a directional change. Aim for 80% satisfaction by moving 1–2% at a time; small, consistent improvements compound. Choose your problems: invest your “three Ts” (time, talent, treasure) where you want to solve challenges. Identity work matters: manage the ego when titles change; treat everyone with integrity—today's intern can be tomorrow's boss. Build safe bridges: don't jump without a plan. Most realignments take 6–12 months with clear milestones. Consider fractional work: package your expertise for multiple clients to increase autonomy and earnings. Realignment isn't always promotion; a “lateral” or even “demotion” can be a values-aligned win.

Phillips, in the Preface to The Book of Revelation:  "In this book the translator is carried into another dimension... He is carried, not into some never-never land of fancy, but into the ever-ever land of God's eternal Values and Judgements". "Although the majority of Christians quite cheerfully accept the inclusion of this mysterious book within the New Testament canon, my strong impression is that very few of them have read it in any detail." On Revelation, from the autobiography The Price of Success: "Certain themes emerge distinctly for the modern reader's profit: (a) The absolute sovereignty of God, and his ultimate purpose to destroy all forms of evil. (b) The inevitable judgments of God upon evil, upon the worship of false gods, which include riches, power and success. (c) The necessity for patient endurance, the ultimate security being the knowledge that God is in control of history (d) The existence of reality, represented here under such symbols as the New Jerusalem, set apart and secure from the battles and tribulations of earthly life, promises complete spiritual security to those who are faithful to God and his Christ.

You track your steps. Maybe even your calories. But do you know what it really costs to live each month?Your personal cost of living is one of the most important numbers in your financial life. Without it, you may be spending in ways that don't reflect your values—or your faith. Let's explore why this number matters, how to calculate it, and how it ties into faithful stewardship.The Basics of StewardshipNo matter your income level or stage of life, the same principles apply. There are five things you can do with money:Earn itLive on itGive it awayOwe it to othersGrow it through saving and investingToday, we're focusing on “living on it”—what it really takes to cover your day-to-day needs. And remember: it's not just rent and groceries. A true cost of living includes less frequent expenses too—insurance premiums, car repairs, or even Christmas gifts.Why Tracking MattersInflation may be slowing, but most of us are still paying more than before. The government reports a national “cost of living,” but that number doesn't reflect your personal circumstances. That's why tracking your own cost of living is crucial—it provides clarity, and clarity is the foundation of stewardship.A practical tool for this is the FaithFi app, which helps you track your income, giving, saving, and spending—all in one place. Here's where to start:1. Begin with GivingFor believers, giving isn't just another line item. It's the first priority—an act of worship and trust in God's provision.2. Add Savings GoalsWhether building an emergency fund, saving for retirement, or preparing for a large expense, set targets you can track monthly.3. List Your ExpensesExpenses fall into three categories:Fixed: Rent, mortgage, insurance, subscriptions.Variable: Groceries, gas, utilities.Irregular: Property taxes, holiday gifts, car repairs. Spread these out by assigning a monthly average.When you add it all up, you'll have a clear picture of your total monthly needs—your true cost of living.If your expenses exceed your income, don't panic. The process reveals problem areas so you can adjust—cutting back on non-essentials, reevaluating fixed costs, or pausing discretionary spending. Stewardship isn't about guilt—it's about faithfulness.Proverbs 27:23–24 says, “Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds, for riches do not last forever.” In modern terms: know your financial condition and manage it wisely.Living With Clarity and FaithTracking your cost of living isn't just a budgeting exercise. It's about living intentionally, aligning every dollar with God's purposes. Needs will shift, life will happen, but clarity allows you to walk with confidence, generosity, and purpose.That's why I encourage you to download the FaithFi app today. With FaithFi Pro, you'll gain access to tools, articles, Bible studies, and daily encouragement to help you manage money with wisdom.

If not, there's no better time to find out.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 67 and single. Should I start taking Social Security now, or wait until age 70 for the larger benefit? I'm also worried about whether Social Security will even be around in the future. On top of that, I worked many years for a nonprofit that provided housing, so my reported income was low. Now I'm earning more—will that help increase my Social Security amount?I'm retired and already drawing Social Security, but I also have earned income from pastoring two rural churches. With that income, am I allowed to contribute to a Roth IRA or another type of retirement account?My husband and I don't have much debt besides our mortgage and a 0% interest loan we used for a heat pump. Should we pay off the heat pump early, add more to our emergency fund, or focus on paying down the mortgage?My online savings account was compromised, and someone tried to transfer money out.

How do you know when God is moving amongst His people? You'll see repentance, humility, and transformed hearts. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses God's movement and involvement in our lives. He teaches from the book of Acts to demonstrate the power, glory, and righteousness of God and how the world's values fail to align with the Lord's. It isn't just a battle over law and order—there's a spiritual conflict unfolding. We're watching as morality continues to degrade, but there is hope! When we stand firm in our faith and trust the Holy Spirit to guide us in His perfect plans, God will bring us out of the darkness and into His light.
