Start Your Transformation Now In this episode of the Transform Your Life from the Inside Out podcast, Jim Fortin reveals a trait that rarely makes the “top 20 lists” of success skills but is, in reality, a game-changer: resourcefulness. Through powerful stories—from Tom Hanks' Castaway to entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, and Susie Batiz—Jim shows how resourcefulness, not resources, is what separates those who thrive from those who stay stuck. Many people wait for the “perfect time” or for more money, connections, or opportunities to arrive. Jim challenges that mindset by making it clear: your life doesn't change when you get more resources; it changes when you choose to become more resourceful. Fear, excuses, and victimhood hold us back, but resourcefulness makes growth inevitable. If you've ever felt like you don't have what it takes to move forward, this episode will give you the clarity and inspiration to figure it out, break free from resignation, and finally create what you want. What You'll Discover in This Episode: Why Resourcefulness Matters More Than Resources (06:17) Jim defines resourcefulness and explains why it is the foundation of real success. Stories of Resourceful Entrepreneurs (08:00) How companies like Apple, Amazon, Subway, and Ring started with almost nothing but became billion-dollar brands. The Role of Fear and Victim Mentality (14:29) Why fear keeps you powerless and why shifting to resourcefulness transforms everything. Settling vs. Creating (18:00) How “agreeing” to your circumstances keeps you stuck—and how to stop settling. The Subconscious Mind as a Tool (21:00) How engaging your subconscious mind can unlock answers and creative solutions. Resourcefulness in Action (22:00) Jim's personal stories of becoming resourceful to create multimillion-dollar outcomes. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway Resourcefulness is more important than resources. If you want more in life, you must figure it out, get creative, and choose action over excuses. If you refuse to become resourceful, you are in silent agreement with your current reality. The truth stings, but freedom comes when you own it—and then act.

Podcast from Nfluence Church | Granger, IndianaFeaturing: Dr. David ImesThis week, Dr. David Imes shared a powerful message on the importance of renewing our minds, drawing from Romans 12:2: "Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God."Dr. Imes addressed the struggles many of us face with anxious thoughts and the impact of our thought life on our well-being. He explained that science and faith both affirm our ability to change and grow—our brains are "neuroplastic," meaning they can be reshaped by our thoughts and choices. God has given us the spiritual DNA to become more like Christ, and we are called to take every thought captive, replacing negativity with the truth of God's Word.Key practical steps included:Regularly reading and meditating on Scripture to shape our thinking.Taking time to quiet our minds and listen for God's voice.Speaking God's promises over our lives and others.Remembering that our identity is rooted in Christ, not in fear or past mistakes.Dr. Imes encouraged us to see ourselves as God sees us—loved, forgiven, and empowered to live out His will.

Real-eyes you are waking up from your traumatic past to a world of deliberately socially engineered ignorance. It is up to you, and within you, to heal yourself.We have all been blessed with resiliency of body mind and spirit. Our brains have been made perfect, so why do we only use 10% as we are taught?Because we have been taught wrong! Deliberately. When Project Paperclip imported Nazi and Fascist scientists into the US in the wake of WWII, with them came the formula for mind control in order to perpetuate what Hitler, Bush, Biden, and self appointed self anointed global leaders term New World Order. A compliant society was needed, and mind control became the invisible menace for implementing it.Since knowledge is our defense against mind control, birthright information on mind brain function was immediately suppressed under the 1947 National Security Act. Mark Phillips found this birthright information while working the highest levels of intelligence mind sciences to preserve the sanctity of free thought. He was appalled to see knowledge that is our defense against mind control, along with innate capabilities for healing from physical and mental trauma, had been withheld for generations from education, mental health, and medical communities and ultimately society as a whole. Mark was bound by laws of sedition, as were many others in positions of intelligence who shared his outrage at the sanctioned usurping of human evolution. When Mark lifted my daughter and me out of the Washington DC swamp of MK Ultra human trafficking, he handed me keys to my own mind. Since this is birthright information buried within us all, these methods are easy to self apply and result in abSOULute healing.Mark did not deprogram me. He empowered me to deprogram myself. In turn, I am sharing this information to all who have eyes to see, ears to hear, and soul to know truth. Since I am not bound by laws of sedition, and it was my experience to heal, you, too, can be empowered to heal from within your self free of misdirected, misinformed, intrusive outside input simply by quietly and privately applying PTSD: Time to Heal.Trauma activates our brain's defense mechanism of shutting down neuron pathways to compartmentalize and repress memory. Deep in the subconscious, trauma undermines our thinking process, intrudes on our present, and even manifests in ill health, unless it is dealt with through conscious awareness. Trauma shuts down neuron pathways. Awareness opens neuron pathways. It is within you to reclaim self control and inner peace just as I did.Our brains were made perfect by divine design, complete with defense mechanisms and capacity to deactivate those mechanisms with awareness. Yet this birthright knowledge was censored for generations while humanity was conditioned to look outside themselves to Big Government, Big Pharma, Big Tech, and Big Cult/occult religion to tell them how to live their lives. This gave control of life's purpose to a handful of self appointed self anointed puppetmasters hellbent on implementing their global slave society agenda.With information on the resiliency of body mind and spirit withheld for generations, Drs forgot that the subconscious never sleeps, even during surgery. This simple key would empower assurance of full healing rather than undermine the recovery process through adverse discussions in the operating room. After generations removed from birthright resiliency, humanity forgot how perfect our bodies have been made. Instead, people bought into Big Pharma's illusion that babies need over 79 vaccines in their first year in order to survive.Read the full article on Cathy's website here!

In this episode of The Alpha Male Coach Podcast, we dive deep into one of the most deeply rooted beliefs in the collective human psyche: the problem of evil. Brother, this isn't just about philosophy or theology - it's about the stories you've inherited, the ideologies you live by, and how they unconsciously shape your life.For centuries, humanity has been conditioned to see evil as an external force - something “out there” waging war against goodness, leaving us as victims caught in the middle. But in this episode, we dismantle that narrative. We look at the evolution of belief systems, from animism and polytheism to monotheism, and now to the unified understanding of energy and consciousness.Here's the truth: evil is not an entity, a demon, or an outside force. Evil is ignorance. It's an uncorrected error born from false thoughts, unchecked habits, and collective conditioning. From ignorance comes error, and from error comes suffering. And when you see this clearly, you reclaim total responsibility for your life.This isn't about blame - it's about power. You are not a pawn in a cosmic battle between light and darkness. You are a conscious creator in a unified field of abundance, and everything in your experience is happening for you. When you begin to see evil not as an external opponent but as a byproduct of unexamined thought, you strip the victim mentality of its power and step fully into radical accountability.In this episode, we'll explore:How ancient belief systems shaped our view of good and evilWhy externalizing evil keeps you trapped in victimhoodThe unified perspective that eliminates the illusion of evilHow ignorance leads to error, and error leads to unnecessary sufferingHow to apply the “scientific method” of the model of alignment to dismantle false beliefsBrother, this conversation is about reclaiming your sovereignty. It's about shifting from “life is happening to me” to “life is happening for me.” When you stop fighting imaginary battles against external forces and start correcting the errors of your own mind, you become unstoppable.This episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about good, evil, and personal power. It's not just information - it's an invitation to elevate your alpha and step into the role of creator, not victim.

The victim mentality has the power to leave you hopeless and helpless. How is the victim mentality influencing your life? Have you been the victim? Are others in your life playing the victim? Where is the victim mentality holding you hostage, parenthood, relationships, career? What is it? In a nutshell, a victim mentality is when someone blames others for their life experiences. In other words, they do not take ownership of, or responsibility for their decisions and actions that resulted in unfavorable circumstances. Experiencing it. If you are the person employing a victim mentality, you are blaming others for things in your life that you are unhappy with. Blaming equates to powerlessness. When you, or others in your life, do not take ownership and consistently blame others, you sacrifice the power to change your circumstances. Additionally, a victim mentality is characterized by a lack of accountability for one's actions. Likewise, they do not adopt healthy coping mechanisms; instead, they blame others. This can be the result of trauma or past experiences, or it could be an intentional choice. Complaining is a symptom of victimhood, and people deny responsibility or ownership for their part in their circumstances. Blaming others, Satan, or God is quite common when someone chooses victimhood. Blame is the key ingredient of a victim mentality. I've recently heard an overwhelming number of people blame the devil for their current circumstances, be it relationships, financial insecurity, lack of success, emotional chaos within their families, or anxiety. When anyone gives Satan credit for their circumstances, they are rendering themselves powerless to him. Scripture verses that remind us that Satan has no authority over us: Luke 10:19 "See, I have given you authority to tread on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing will hurt you." 1 John 4:4 "Little children, you are from God, and have conquered them; for the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world." Colossians 1:13 "He has rescued us from the power of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved Son," Romans 8:38-39 "For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord." Anxiety One of the first steps you can take is to download the free eBook, Alleviate Anxiety by Developing Healthy Habits for a Healthy Mind. The second step is to give yourself a social media reset and use the time you've been scrolling to get closer to Jesus. Read the full shownotes and access all links.

But by complaining and being negative, you are not helping the situation in any way whatsoever." - Jason RedmanImagine coming home from combat in a wheelchair, with metal hardware holding your body together, breathing through a trach tube for over seven months, and having your wife grind up your food so you can eat through a stomach tube. Most people would crumble under that weight. Jason Redman, a former Navy SEAL, made a different choice. Instead of wallowing in what happened to him, he put up a sign outside his hospital room that changed everything - not just for him, but for everyone around him. That single decision to reject victim mentality became the foundation for a recovery that defied every medical expectation and transformed how his family, friends, and fellow warriors saw what was possible in their darkest moments.What Jason shares about the SEAL mindset goes far beyond military training - it's a blueprint for anyone who feels stuck or overwhelmed by life's challenges. He reveals how SEALs use "muscle memory" principles to build unshakeable discipline, why they train for scenarios even worse than the worst-case situation, and how the simple "crawl, walk, run" approach can help you accomplish goals that feel impossible right now. This isn't about becoming tougher or pushing through pain - it's about understanding that leadership starts with how you lead yourself, especially when everything falls apart.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

In this episode of the Awake & Winning Podcast, we bring you a repost from the Health Bridge Podcast with host Holly Beck. This conversation dives deep into the role mindset plays in autoimmune healing and overall life transformation. Kaylor opens up about how subconscious programming, victimhood, and perfectionism keep people stuck in cycles of illness, and why radical self-awareness is the first step to freedom. They explore how to stop identifying with disease, challenge the narratives we've been conditioned to believe, and start reclaiming sovereignty in our health and lives. If you've ever felt stuck in your healing journey, this is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed. Episode Highlights: victimhood, autoimmune healing, subconscious beliefs, perfectionism, mindset work, trauma responses, healing identity, nervous system regulation, vulnerability, manifestation, self-worth, personal sovereignty Takeaways: Mindset is the first step in any healing journey Most people unconsciously identify with their illness Beliefs shape biology more than genes do Perfectionism is a coping mechanism rooted in shame Autoimmune diseases can serve subconscious needs for attention Vulnerability must be intentional, not performative You are the observer—not your diagnosis or story If you enjoyed the episode, please be sure to take a screenshot and share it out on Instagram and tag @thekaylorbetts.

Drawing from lesson six, he unpacks how victim behavior—constant blame, low ownership, endless justification, and emotional martyrdom—sucks the life out of a team.These individuals don't just resist change—they resent it. Every good thing is somehow a problem. Every setback is always someone else's fault. And their behavior acts like a slow poison in your business, wearing down morale, momentum, and mission.But here's the message Mike leaves us with: you can't carry their backpack. Your job isn't to fix them—it's to point them to the tools and put the weight back where it belongs. If they want change, they've got to carry it.If you're a leader in Multifamily, this is a call to clarity. You cannot build a winning culture with victimhood in the room.If this series gave you insight, inspiration, or a sharper edge as a leader—Like, Subscribe, and share it forward. Let's build healthier teams and better businesses.

What do therapists mean when they say someone has a "victim mentality"? In this episode, we unpack this flippant term and explore what's going on underneath it. We recognize that "victim mentality" is applied to several distinct phenomena. We discuss the difference between being an actual victim of harm, using "victimhood" as a protective defense, and unprocessed grief or trauma. We also examine how "victim mentality" is often used to discredit marginalized people and survivors of violence. Finally, we explore how, as therapists, we can respond with more understanding for where the client is coming from and skill to navigate these nuanced situations.--Check out Leading Edge's upcoming free events, in-person events, and over 150 webinars to choose from at LeadingEdgeSeminars.org, and find the training that actually works for you."

And more importantly, how we can begin to write new ones.This lesson is a call to radical responsibility. Not as a burden—but as a path back to our power, agency, and peace.Whether you've been looping in blame, waiting to be rescued, or doubting your ability to change… this episode offers a gentle but clear reminder:You are not a victim. You are a creator.Key Insights from Lesson 31✨ Freedom is an inside job: Real freedom doesn't come from changing external circumstances—it begins when we stop believing the ego's script of helplessness and choose to see through the eyes of love and strength.✨ Perception is projection: Your outer world reflects your inner beliefs. Victimhood distorts your perception and locks you into reactive loops. But when you shift your mindset, even slightly, the world reflects that softness and sovereignty back to you.✨ Responsibility is not blame—it's empowerment: To say “I am not a victim” isn't to dismiss the pain you've lived through. It's to stop giving it control over your present. You can choose again. You can write a new chapter. One rooted in compassion, clarity, and conscious choice.Reflection QuestionsWhere in my life do I feel like a victim right now—and what narrative is fueling that feeling?If I fully embraced that I am not a victim of the world I see, how might I meet today's challenges with more personal power and agency?Is there a story I've outgrown but still wear like a second skin? What belief would I need to release to return to who I truly am?What's one small way I can reclaim authorship of my life today, instead of waiting to be rescued or fixed?RESOURCES MENTIONEDThe Three Faces of Victimhood: An Overview of the Victim TriangleIdentifying the Drama TriangleMaking the Shift From Drama to EmpowermentCONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINTWebsiteInstagramORACLE DECKS USEDTea Leaf Fortune CardsAnimal Spirit DeckThe Rose Oracle Deck
Send us a textBefore recovery, I had no idea how many areas of my life I didn't even perceive as having a choice in. I thought, ‘This is just the way it is; this is just how life works.'

Do you get offended if a date doesn't immediately get back to you? How about when you ask a friend to call you later and they don't? When you pass a stranger on the street and they glance at you, looking annoyed, do you assume their annoyance is directed at you? Or do you cut others slack in these situations, rather than take it personally? In this episode, I'm sharing what the research says are the four dimensions of the tendency for interpersonal victimhood, breaking down the difference between having a victim mentality and being a victim, and giving you ideas on how you can shift from a victim mindset into a growth mindset.
