A Note from James:Tony Hawk is one of the greatest athletes of all time—but what fascinates me most isn't just the tricks.It's the mindset.Tony didn't just become the best skateboarder in the world. He built an entire ecosystem around what he loved: competitions, companies, tours, sponsorships, and one of the most successful video game franchises ever created.What's interesting is that none of it was planned that way. It came from constant experimentation, falling—literally—and getting back up again.In this episode, Tony talks about the path to excellence, how he handled criticism and failure, the moment he finally landed the legendary 900 trick, and how skateboarding evolved from an underground subculture into a global industry.Episode Description:Tony Hawk didn't just change skateboarding—he helped transform it into a global cultural phenomenon.In this archival conversation, Tony shares the real story behind his career: learning to master fear, surviving the ups and downs of a niche sport, and eventually building a massive business empire around skateboarding.He explains how passion drove him through the lean years when skateboarding almost disappeared, why constant experimentation helped him stay at the top, and how a combination of timing, risk-taking, and creative control led to the success of the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater video game franchise.The conversation also explores the legendary moment when he landed the first successful 900, the importance of protecting your brand, and why mastery often comes from relentless curiosity rather than natural talent.What You'll Learn:Why pursuing passion—even during downturns—can create long-term successHow failure and repetition build elite skill in any disciplineWhy protecting your brand and intellectual control matters in businessHow the 900 trick became one of the most iconic moments in sports historyWhy continuous learning and experimentation are essential for staying relevantTimestamped Chapters:[00:02:00] The Physics of Skateboarding & Learning Through Failure[00:03:12] Introduction[00:03:38] Developing Air Awareness in Skateboarding[00:04:10] The First Time Going Airborne in a Pool[00:05:05] Learning How to Fall Safely[00:06:19] Aging, Risk & Walking Away from Mega Ramps[00:07:17] Skateboarding's Rebellious Origins[00:08:00] Creativity and Individual Style in Skate Culture[00:09:00] Advice for Pursuing Excellence[00:10:00] Learning Every Aspect of an Industry[00:11:35] Skateboarding's Collapse in the Early '90s[00:12:33] Becoming a Professional Skater[00:14:02] Mentorship from Stacy Peralta[00:15:13] Going Broke During Skateboarding's Down Years[00:16:29] Skating Parking Lot Shows for $100 a Day[00:17:31] The X Games and Skateboarding's Comeback[00:18:45] The Video Game That Changed Everything[00:19:31] When Tony Hawk's Pro Skater Became “The Game”[00:20:24] Lessons from Skateboarding Applied to Business[00:21:17] A Failed High-End Denim Business[00:22:43] Being Called a Sellout[00:24:00] Protecting Your Brand and Reputation[00:25:13] Creating Tony Hawk's Pro Skater[00:26:20] Designing the Game Mechanics[00:27:20] The Long Road to the 900[00:29:35] Landing the 900 at the X Games[00:31:08] Becoming Tony Hawk Inc.[00:32:21] The Importance of Total Immersion[00:33:29] Designing the Downward Spiral Ramp[00:35:24] Advice for Raising a Passionate Kid[00:38:12] Business Advice from Tony Hawk's Sister[00:40:29] Working with Family[00:43:04] Why Some Athletes Fade After Success[00:44:28] Clearing Up the 900 Controversy[00:48:00] The Hoverboard PrankAdditional Resources:Official Tony HawkTony Hawk's™ Pro Skater™ 3 + 4Bones Brigade: An AutobiographyRiley Hawk on InstagramSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week Andrew welcomes longtime baseball writer Ken Davidoff back to the podcast. For 30+ years, Ken lived his childhood dream of being a sportswriter. Then, at age 50, he decided it was time for a change and stepped down from his role as a baseball columnist at the New York Post. Now, Ken is an adjunct professor and the co-author of the new book 101 Lessons From The Dugout: What Baseball & Softball Can Teach Us About The Game Of Life. This conversation is a deep dive on Ken's decision to walk away from the job he dreamed about having as a kid – and an exploration of many simple (yet powerful) life lessons Ken shares in his book.

When you reach that quiet moment where you think, I don’t know if I can keep doing this, you’re not alone. In this episode, I talk honestly about soul-level exhaustion, the temptation to choose comfort over commitment, and why endurance is essential to spiritual maturity. Through Elijah’s story in 1 Kings, we see that God meets us not with condemnation, but with rest, nourishment, and a whisper of grace. If you’ve felt weary, discouraged, or on the brink of quitting, this conversation will remind you that exhaustion lies—but God is faithful. Don’t walk away.

Whether you're a runner, someone tackling a big goal, or just trying to figure out what it means to keep going, I think you'll find something here to encourage you. Let's get started.Welcome back to Spirit of EQ! I'm your host, Eric Pennington, and I'm excited to invite you into a powerful episode that goes deep into the emotional journey behind running a marathon—and the life lessons we can pull from it.I'm joined once again by my good friend and guest, J.A. Dava, who many of you might remember from his incredible insights on sales during his last visit. Today, though, we're shifting from business to the marathon course, and trust me, the parallels to life are striking.J.A. is a multi-marathon runner, and in our conversation, he opens up about his life-altering heart attack, what it really feels like to hit “the wall” at mile 22, and how the support of others—sometimes even complete strangers—makes all the difference.We talk honestly about the tough moments, the battles with ego, those humbling setbacks, and what it means to rely on community.I share my own observations—like watching my son-in-law run his first marathon and reflecting on how life sometimes feels exactly like those endurance miles: full of hope early on, then testing you when you least expect it. We cover the importance of rest, the power of discipline over motivation, and why your “why” matters for whatever marathon you're running—on the road, or just in everyday life.Moments00:00 "Life-Saving Health Wake-Up Call"06:54 "Marathon Missteps: Food & Hydration"13:24 "Reflections on Marathons and Life"17:23 "Mile 13: Keep Going"21:09 Running Without Proper Training31:21 Marathon Reflections and Achievement32:20 "Persistence and Emotional Triumph"42:14 Empathy Struggles and Growth48:00 Success Requires Support & Preparation49:23 "What Do I Really Want?"57:28 "Prioritization Over Training Costs Result"01:00:42 "Walking Away and Reflecting"01:07:12 "Overcoming the Fear of Starting"01:14:48 What's It Take to Be You?01:18:20 "Evaluate Your Inner Circle"Here are 3 takeaways you can apply to your journey—whether you're chasing fitness goals or professional ones:

This week, we're joined by Brenton Harrison, founder of New Money New Problems. Brenton is a financial advisor who works with first- and second-generation high earners. We're talking about how to tell the difference between quality financial advice and misinformation/scammy advice, making sense of what you hear online, and why not all “good advice” is good for YOU. And because we live in the real world where creators and advisors both exist, we get into the relationship between financial influencers and financial advisors, where each one can actually help, where each one can fall short, and why it doesn't have to be “versus”We get into:The difference between first-generation wealth and first-generation high income (and why it matters)Why first/second-gen high earners can be underserved even when they're making good moneyThe #1 thing Brenton wishes high earners knew soonerWhy financial literacy doesn't automatically fix the emotional + social reality of moneyThe disclaimer we wish more financial creators would useWhy “tax hack” content is so seductive and why it can be flat-out dangerousWhy market-timing myths surviveWhat a strong advisor relationship should produce in the first 60–90 days, and what you should look forWhy a bad experience with one advisor doesn't mean you should quit the entire lane foreverBrenton's take on robo-advisors, AI, and how tech can help without replacing real planning Links: Visit Brenton's website and book an initial meetingConnect with him on Instagram or LinkedIn Subscribe to his YouTube channelListen to the New Money, New Problems podcast  Connect with Julien and Kiersten on our website, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.Join our email list to get updates from us, opportunities for discounts, freebies and a quick rundown on the relevant financial and career news impacting your life.

What happens when you're not just climbing the ladder, but standing at the very top? For Lize Ratliff, that meant achieving her dream job as Head of Podcasts at Mamamia, after 10 years hustling to get there. Lize’s journey is a masterclass in pure tenacity. She started at 19 as an intern from a small country town, so determined to work for Mia Freedman that she "literally didn't leave”. Over the next decade, she climbed the ladder through nine different titles - from intern to Mia's EA, to the first-ever producer of No Filter - eventually becoming the woman running the entire 29-show operation. For Lize, the birth of her first child was the catalyst for an enormous change. Realising the demands of the job were incompatible with the life she wanted as a mother, she and her husband came to a terrifying realisation: they needed to ‘blow up their life.’ In a move that left many stunned, they both quit their high-profile Sydney jobs, moved to Newcastle, and Lize enrolled in a Master's degree to pursue a completely new career: As a high school English teacher. This is a raw and candid look at what it means to walk away from the top. We cover the creative job application that got her hired, the moment she crashed her boss's car (and kept her job), and the overwhelming "what have I done?" feeling that hits after you trade a high-prestige career for a student ID. Get ready to learn why sometimes, you have to "just jump.” THE END BITS: Want more from Sarah Davidson? Check out her podcast Seize The Yay. Discover more Mamamia podcasts here.

In this episode of #BeyondBarriers, we sit down for a real, #unfiltered conversation about leaving the white power movement & coming from two very different paths. We read excerpts from our books, reflect on what it took to face our pasts, and talk about the weight that comes with telling the #truth out loud. Writing these stories wasn't easy. Living them was harder.This conversation goes beyond headlines and assumptions. It's about #accountability, #identity, #healing, and what it actually looks like to walk away from something that once defined your life. #WalkingAwayFromHate #FromHateToHumanity #redemptionstory #leadership #breakingfree #transformation #truestory #exploited

In Episode 296, I sit down with Megan Sellstrom. Megan spent the last 13 years as a crime scene investigator in Louisiana. She recently identified the heaviness the profession was causing and made the courageous decision to walk away and step into a new phase of life.  Megan loved the career, as you'll hear on the show. It was fascinating, and she held a passion for it, but being subjected to violence for years took its toll. Her story is not unlike many people inside the profession, and she made the decision to prioritize her heart over her career.  Please enjoy Episode 296 of the Endless Endeavor Podcast.

There are two sentences that can ruin a perfectly normal evening – “We need to talk”, and its evil twin, “We need to talk about money.” Even if your relationship is good, that phrasing makes it feel like somebody's about to get graded. Even when things are fine, nobody wants to be the person who turns a decent Tuesday night into a full relationship audit. So this week, we're introducing a better way: small doors. These are quick, low-stakes, real-life openings that normalize money talk without turning it into a whole thing.And the best part is, they're not just for couples. Small doors can be used with parents, siblings, friends, or any relationship where money differences create distanceWe get into:Why “we need to talk about money” is basically a panic alarm for most people, even if they're in good relationshipsThe difference between avoiding conflict and avoiding judgment, weirdness, and role shiftsWhy money conversations work better as appetizers than a full-day “financial summit”What “small doors” actually look like in real life (aka: our kid's expensive cherry habit

"If you really loved me, you wouldn't give up on me."Rob and Michele Reiner heard some version of that for seventeen years. And they stayed. Eighteen rehab programs. Tens of thousands a month in treatment. A guesthouse so Nick could live close. A film about recovery made together. Every door stayed open. Every line in the sand got erased.They never walked away. And now they're gone.This isn't about assigning blame for what happened — that responsibility belongs to one person. This is about the trap that keeps people standing in fires that are consuming them. The belief that presence equals protection. That love equals proximity. That walking away makes you the villain.It doesn't.Nick reportedly told his parents that refusing their suggested programs meant homelessness. That was the consequence. It never materialized. Every ultimatum softened. And some people will never hit bottom because someone's always there to prevent the fall. Your love becomes the cushion that keeps them from the crash that might actually wake them up.Three things keep you trapped. Guilt weaponization: "If you leave, I'll spiral" — making your departure the cause of their destruction. Sunk cost: you've given too much to quit now. And the fantasy of the final save: what if this was finally the moment they were ready, and you missed it?Rob brought Nick to a Christmas party because leaving him home alone felt too dangerous. A seventy-seven-year-old man couldn't go to a gathering without his adult son. That's not caregiving. That's captivity dressed as love.You're allowed to stop. You're allowed to set limits. You're allowed to survive.The Reiners stayed until there was nowhere left to stand. You don't have to make the same choice.#RobReiner #NickReiner #MicheleSingerReiner #ReinerCase #TrueCrimeToday #TrueCrime #Enabling #WalkingAway #AddictionFamily #FamilyTragedyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

After 12 years as the Work Futurist at Atlassian, Dom Price made the decision to leave a role so intertwined with who he was that even introducing himself meant saying those two things in the same breath. In this episode, Dom and I explore the human side of change - the fog, the discomfort, the loss of structure, and the surprising freedom that comes when you finally say out loud, “I don’t know yet.” Dom walks me through the reflection process that led to this moment, how he’s sitting with uncertainty rather than trying to outrun it, and the identity untangling that comes with stepping away from a global brand. We also dive into what he’s seeing inside boardrooms right now, why so many leaders are struggling to adapt to AI, and the mindset shift that separates those who thrive from those who wait it out. Dom and I discuss: The realisation that it was time for change - even without knowing what came next How Dom uses the “five Ls” every 90 days to check in on what’s working and what’s not The emotional rollercoaster of losing structure, status, and the adrenaline of a big corporate role How trusted friends helped Dom challenge his assumptions and experiment with “trying before buying” in his next chapter What leaders are getting wrong about AI and transformation - and the three patterns Dom sees repeatedly in boardrooms The human side of tech change and why organisations must upgrade their human systems, not just their technical ones Why productivity gains don’t matter unless you know how to reinvest the time The leadership behaviours that matter most in times of rapid change KEY QUOTES “Even though it was just one word, it felt like the wrapper around my whole identity.” “I had to say out loud, I’m okay not knowing what that is — and that was the hard bit.” “When you take away those foundations, it’s like a shot of discomfort I hadn’t felt for a long time.” Connect with Dom Price on Instagram, LinkedIn and his website.

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with Amy Antonelli, CEO of HumanitarianXP, former Apple executive, and nonprofit trailblazer. From Silicon Valley to rural India, Amy's unconventional path is shaped by faith, grit, and a calling to build something greater than herself. Today, her organization sends over 8,000 teens a year across the globe to serve, disconnect, and discover who they really are.Amy unpacks the miracle-filled story behind HXP's growth and its deeper mission: helping young people chase purpose instead of performance. Through hard labor, spiritual grounding, and intentional leadership, teens return from these trips transformed—and often redirected toward a more meaningful life.She and Casey explore what it takes to lead with both excellence and empathy, run a nonprofit like a business, and stay spiritually aligned while scaling global impact. Amy's journey is a powerful case study in living on mission and building organizations where faith fuels execution.In this EpisodeThe unique “builder” model that transforms both youth and communitiesAmy's leadership lessons from Steve Jobs and Silicon ValleyThe miracle-filled story of faith, impact, and intentionalityHow young leaders, digital detox, and raw service unlock personal purposeChapters00:00 | Meet Amy Antonelli01:33 | Faith, Purpose, and Customized Curriculums05:13 | What is HXP?

This week we're talking to Rahkim Sabree, author, financial trauma educator, and the person who basically put “financial trauma” on the map for a lot of the internet. His work connects money behaviors to nervous system responses, family systems, and broader cultural and structural realities. His book, Overcoming Financial Trauma, and his whole approach are research-heavy, emotionally honest, and built to last.Julien starts this conversation by admitting something most people don't say out loud. He shares that he delayed inviting Rahkim on the podcast because the conversation would've forced him to confront his own financial trauma, and he wasn't ready to "perform" his way through it.From there, this episode goes deeper than “money mindset” and way past generic financial literacy. If you've ever felt anxious about money without a clear reason… or noticed your stress spikes around the 1st and the 15th… this one will feel uncomfortably specific, in a good way.We talk about:Why “financial trauma” is everywhere right now and how the term gets misusedThe awkward truth about why healing your money story can feel like disrespecting your parentsThe money anxiety you normalize until somebody else hears itRahkim's house fire and how the “tools” we rely on (education, planning, discipline) don't always deploy when life is on fireWhy money often represents power, freedom, and safety - and how safety shows up after lossVicarious financial trauma and how you can “catch” money anxiety from what you grew up aroundHow we're socialized to treat “have-nots” and how that drives status, spending, and fearPhysical tells of financial trauma and why the better question is: where do you feel money in your body?Links: Get Rahkim's book, Overcoming Financial Trauma Learn more about his work on Rahkim's website, Instagram, and LinkedIn pageSubscribe to Rahkim's newsletter on Substack Follow Rahkim's writing on Forbes Connect with Julien and Kiersten on our website, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.Join our email list to get updates from us, opportunities for discounts, freebies and a quick rundown on the relevant financial and career news impacting your life.

Prices are up, surprise expenses are regular, and your “simple” money goal keeps turning into a weekly argument with yourself (or your partner).In this episode, we talk about why so many people are either going full finance drill sergeant in 2026, or avoiding goals completely. We break down what financial discipline actually looks like when your life changes mid-month, and how to build goals that bend instead of break so you can keep moving forward without the mental drama of “I have to be extra strict this week” every week.We cover: Why discipline doesn't transfer cleanly from one area of life to another and why that's normalWhy SMART goals make perfect sense at work, but don't always work for moneyThe difference between ambitious/hard goals and brittle goalsWhy “catch-up energy” erases progress even when you're technically doing “better”When discipline turns into stubbornness (hey, crypto friends)The hidden cost of “perfect” goal frameworks (hello, 75 Hard friends)Why the happiest wealthy people aren't obsessing over the minutiaeThe real purpose of goals: options, freedom, and a better life  Connect with Julien and Kiersten on our website, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.Join our email list to get updates from us, opportunities for discounts, freebies and a quick rundown on the relevant financial and career news impacting your life.

In this episode of Echoes Through Eternity, Dr. Jeffrey D. Skinner explores a troubling but often overlooked trend: while Gen Z men are returning to church, young women are quietly leaving.This is not loud rebellion. It is not rejection of Jesus. It is a slow erosion of belonging.Joined by Rev. Dr. Kim McLean, mentored by Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn and others—pastor, songwriter, church planter, and longtime mentor of others—this conversation examines how shame-based formation, unequal leadership structures, purity culture, and unresolved trauma have shaped women's experiences in the church.Drawing on Barna research, lived pastoral stories, and a Wesleyan understanding of holiness as love perfected, this episode asks a deeper question: What happens when formation fails to produce freedom?Key themes include:• The growing gender gap in church attendance• Why women leave without abandoning faith• The impact of shame-based discipleship• Women in ministry and invisible ceilings• Purity culture and spiritual trauma• Why silence feels safer than staying• What faithful formation looks like nowThis episode is not an indictment. It is an invitation—to listen, to repent where needed, and to build churches where women are not merely welcomed, but needed.REFERENCED RESEARCH & THINKERSBarna Group• Gen Z attendance trends and gender gap research• Studies on church disengagement and trust in leadershipSurvey Center on American Life• Faith deconstruction and institutional trust• Gendered religious disengagementBeth Moore• Public departure from the Southern Baptist Convention• Reflections on women, authority, and ScriptureMildred Bangs Wynkoop• A Theology of Love• Holiness as relational restoration, not behavioral perfectionScriptural anchors used or referenced:• Galatians 3:28• John 4 (Woman at the Well)• Resurrection witness of Mary Magdalene• Ephesians 5 (mutual submission, not hierarchy)Takeaways:Gen Z women are experiencing a quiet exodus from church, indicating a deeper relational breakdown.This exodus is characterized by a lack of belonging rather than outright rejection of faith.The data reveals a significant gap in church attendance between young men and women.Church leadership must address the relational safety and equal treatment of women in ministry.Many young women feel unseen and confined to narrow roles within church communities.The shift observed among young women invites churches to reflect on their practices and priorities.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacyOP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

In this deeply honest episode of The Redeemed Marriage Podcast, Rusty and Heather Bryant continue the conversation around healing after infidelity by turning the focus to a perspective that is often misunderstood and rarely discussed. Heather vulnerably shares what the spouse who caused the hurt needs in order for true restoration to take place—not as a way to excuse betrayal, but as a pathway toward lasting healing for both partners. Drawing from their own story, Heather introduces the idea of the “One Day” moments—those emotionally charged days when pain is fresh and decisions feel urgent. She gently challenges couples to resist making life-altering choices in the immediate aftermath of trauma and instead allow space for clarity, wisdom, and God's work over time. Together, Rusty and Heather address the outside voices that often label forgiveness as weakness, reminding listeners that choosing to stay, fight, and rebuild requires immense courage and strength. The conversation explores the tension between rebuilding trust and creating safety, reframing boundaries and transparency not as control, but as necessary protection for both spouses. Heather speaks candidly about the danger of perpetual punishment and how staying stuck in the offense can quietly sabotage the very healing both partners are longing for. By shifting the focus from the act of betrayal to the impact of the pain, they show how a marriage can move from being defined by an affair to being shaped by redemption. Nearly thirty years into marriage and approaching fifteen years of life after infidelity, Rusty and Heather stand as living proof that God is able to redeem even the most broken chapters. This episode offers hope to couples in the middle of the wreckage and points toward a future where grace, humility, and perseverance can make the second half of marriage even more meaningful than the first.

Andrew Gautreau grew up in a good family in Louisiana, but addiction took hold in his teenage years and quickly sent his life off the rails. After finishing trade school, he began getting arrested for drug offenses — yet somehow still landed a job as a prison guard, training for a month at Angola, one of the most notorious prisons in America. His time on the job lasted just six months before he quit right before being fired, all while being arrested twice for drug charges outside the prison. As his addiction spiraled further, Andrew ended up cycling through local jails and a correctional work facility, where he spent nearly two years behind bars. In this episode, he opens up about addiction, hypocrisy inside the justice system, life on both sides of the bars, and how he ultimately turned everything around and got sober. _____________________________________________ #PrisonStories #AddictionRecovery #CorruptPrisonGuard #LifeAfterPrison #TrueCrimePodcast #AngolaPrison #FormerInmate #redemptionstory _____________________________________________ Thank you to PRIZEPICKS & LUCY for sponsoring this episode: LUCY: Go to HTTP://LUCY.CO/IANBICK and use promo code IANBICK to get 20% off your first order. _____________________________________________ PRIZEPICKS: Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/IANBICK and use code IANBICK and get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup! _____________________________________________ Connect with Andrew Gautreau: https://tattedbadclothing.myshopify.com/ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 From Addiction to Prison Guard: A Life on the Edge 01:00 Growing Up in Louisiana and Early Influences 08:00 Family Values, Childhood Trauma, and Identity 13:00 First Drugs, Addiction, and Losing Control 18:00 First Arrests, Criminal Charges, and Consequences 24:00 Escalation: Jail Time, Probation, and Repeat Mistakes 31:00 Becoming a Correctional Officer Against the Odds 36:00 Inside Angola Prison: Training, Reality, and Moral Conflict 42:00 Daily Life as a Prison Guard Behind the Walls 47:00 Drugs, Arrests, and Walking Away from the Job 52:00 Addiction Spirals: Crime, Chaos, and Self-Destruction 58:00 Rock Bottom: Overdoses, Homelessness, and Survival 01:03:00 Getting Sober and Rebuilding From Nothing 01:09:00 Life After Addiction: Giving Back and Helping Others 01:13:00 Lessons Learned, Redemption, and Final Reflections Learn more about your ad choices.

Is the urge to walk away intuition or a nervous system response asking for relief? In this episode of Your Yes Filled Life, Brenda Winkle breaks down how to tell the difference between activated leaving (driven by urgency, overwhelm, or exhaustion) and regulated clarity (rooted in steadiness, self-trust, and integrity). This conversation is for thoughtful, high-performing, empathic, intuitive people who care deeply and often stay too long because they don't want to abandon others or themselves. You'll learn Why wanting to leave doesn't automatically mean misalignment How urgency, looping, and emotional charge signal activation What clarity actually feels like in the body Why grief can still be present in aligned decisions How high-pressure environments blur discernment This episode isn't about deciding faster. It's about settling enough to hear what you already know.

In this powerful episode of Apostle Talk, host Dave Bigler sits down with Ben Deeb, a quad-certified peer professional (CRPA, CJSR, PSP, CARC) and Center Staff Supervisor at Healing Springs Recovery Community and Outreach Center in Saratoga County, New York. Ben shares his raw, redemptive journey from severe cocaine addiction, repeated arrests (around 15 times), homelessness, and incarceration to becoming a transformative leader in recovery support. He candidly discusses how substance use disorders and mental health challenges affect a vast majority of the incarcerated population, the lack of meaningful rehabilitation or wraparound services in the justice system, and how a divine encounter with God during one of his jail stays ignited lasting change. Ben now supervises peer professionals, spearheaded the development of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) programs, recovery units, and reentry initiatives in the Saratoga County jail, helping justice-impacted individuals find hope, stability, and freedom.The conversation highlights the systemic failures in treating addiction as a moral failing rather than a health issue, the vital role of peer support and faith in recovery, and Ben's ongoing mission to train others and expand programs that bridge jail to community reintegration. This episode is a stirring testimony of God's redemptive power, the importance of compassion over judgment, and practical steps toward breaking cycles of addiction and recidivism. If you're struggling with addiction, supporting someone who is, or passionate about justice reform and recovery advocacy, Ben's story offers encouragement and real-world insight.If you or someone you know is struggling with substance use, reach out for help:Healing Springs Recovery Community: (518) 306-3048https://preventioncouncil.org/healing-springs/Shelters of Saratoga:(518) 581-1097https://sheltersofsaratoga.org/Subscribe for more inspiring testimonies of faith, recovery, and transformation.

Proverbs 19:27–29 delivers a sober warning about the consequences of rejecting wisdom. Turning away from instruction leads directly into error, while false witnesses delight in lies and mock justice. Judgment awaits scoffers, and punishment is prepared for those who persist in folly. In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine how contempt for truth hardens the heart, why integrity in testimony matters, and how God's justice ultimately answers persistent rebellion.

When life feels loud, getting rid of stuff can feel like relief. But if the stuff keeps coming back, the real issue is usually what the purchases were trying to solve in the first place. ​​So this is an  episode about what to ask yourself before you fill the donation bags.We're talking about materialism as a pattern and what happens when your things stop just being “things”. Kiersten gets personal about why decluttering has always worked for her and why she finally realized it was only half the story.We get into: Why decluttering can feel like regulation and why that doesn't mean it fixes the real issueThe difference between materialism, consumerism, and decluttering so you can name what's actually happeningHow “reset energy” turns into a cycle where you purge, feel lighter, reward yourself, and rebuild the messWhat it looks like when you buy things to feel prepared even when the situation never comesThe water bottle problem and why upgrades become a substitute for behaviorThe planner and journal trap and how marketing sells “this will change your life” in book formWhy organizing products can be emotional purchases disguised as practical onesA simple solution that works: move items out of sight and see what you miss versus what you just like having availableHow attachment creates decision fatigue because every item turns into a guilt conversationThe shift that actually helps Future YouOur perspective on freedom and why being too attached to stuff can quietly trap your options Connect with Julien and Kiersten on our website, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.Join our email list to get updates from us, opportunities for discounts, freebies and a quick rundown on the relevant financial and career news impacting your life.

On this week's all-new episode of the Digging Deep ATVMX Podcast, we're honored to welcome back one of the most dominant athletes our sport has ever seen — four-time WMX ATV Motocross National Champion Kinsey Osborn.Entering the 2025 season with three straight titles, back-to-back perfect seasons, and a 45-moto win streak, Kinsey faced the toughest challenge of her career. A disastrous opening round, unprecedented pressure, and the arrival of elite international competition turned the season into an all-time battle. What followed was a championship-worthy comeback, capped by a clutch four-moto win streak to secure yet another title against the strongest competition she had faced during her championship run.Then, in a moment that stunned the ATV racing world, Kinsey announced her retirement while standing on top — undefeated in WMX championships and just a college sophomore. In this powerful, reflective conversation, Kinsey opens up about the pressure, the comeback, the decision to walk away, and what life looks like beyond racing.This is a rare, honest discussion that could only happen now — and a fitting chapter-close for a GOAT-level career. We're incredibly grateful to Kinsey for her time, trust, and continued support of Digging Deep.As always, thank you for DIGGING DEEP with us. Enjoy!Send us a textSupport the show

What happens when you're not just climbing the ladder, but standing at the very top? For Lize Ratliff, that meant achieving her dream job as Head of Podcasts at Mamamia, after 10 years hustling to get there. Lize’s journey is a masterclass in pure tenacity. She started at 19 as an intern from a small country town, so determined to work for Mia Freedman that she "literally didn't leave”. Over the next decade, she climbed the ladder through nine different titles - from intern to Mia's EA, to the first-ever producer of No Filter - eventually becoming the woman running the entire 29-show operation. For Lize, the birth of her first child was the catalyst for an enormous change. Realising the demands of the job were incompatible with the life she wanted as a mother, she and her husband came to a terrifying realisation: they needed to ‘blow up their life.’ In a move that left many stunned, they both quit their high-profile Sydney jobs, moved to Newcastle, and Lize enrolled in a Master's degree to pursue a completely new career: As a high school English teacher. This is a raw and candid look at what it means to walk away from the top. We cover the creative job application that got her hired, the moment she crashed her boss's car (and kept her job), and the overwhelming "what have I done?" feeling that hits after you trade a high-prestige career for a student ID. Get ready to learn why sometimes, you have to "just jump.” THE END BITS: Want more from Sarah Davidson? Check out her podcast Seize The Yay. Discover more Mamamia podcasts here.

Alan Jackson spent three weeks on the Nick Reiner case. Every waking hour, according to his own account. His team issued ten subpoenas — all now sealed by the court. Then he walked into a Los Angeles courtroom and told the judge he had "no choice" but to withdraw. Whatever he discovered, whatever those subpoenas revealed, he says he's legally prohibited from discussing.But Jackson did say one thing on the courthouse steps: Nick Reiner is "not guilty of murder" under California law. That's not a legal ruling. That's a preview of the insanity defense he was building before he left.Deputy Public Defender Kimberly Greene inherited the case with approximately thirty seconds of introduction time before the hearing. She told reporters she'd had no prior contact with the Reiner family. The LA County Public Defender's Office has a strong capital case record — between 2006 and 2015, only one of their clients received a death sentence out of thirty capital appeals. But Greene is walking into a case mid-construction, with sealed subpoenas she may or may not be able to access.Rob and Michele Reiner spent nearly two decades trying to help their son. Eighteen rehab programs. Seventy thousand dollars a month in treatment. A guest house on the family property. When Nick was arrested for allegedly stabbing them to death, the resources that had always protected him became a question mark.Nick's arraignment is February 23rd. No plea entered. No bail. Alan Jackson knows something. He just can't tell anyone what it is.#NickReiner #RobReiner #AlanJackson #MicheleReiner #PublicDefender #ReinerMurders #InsanityDefense #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #WeekInReviewJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode, we explore what it means to grant legal rights and who ultimately bears the cost when governments expand them, starting with Peru's decision to recognize rights for stingless bees and moving into a broader discussion of negative versus positive rights. We examine labor shortages in skilled trades, the unintended consequences of vacancy taxes, and common misunderstandings about loans, insurance, and debt. The conversation then turns to credit scores, interest rates, student loans, and moral hazard, including how incentives shape borrowing behavior and higher education choices. Along the way, we connect financial systems to risk pooling and insurance logic, highlighting how policy decisions, incentives, and individual responsibility intersect in everyday economic life. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:29 Peru Grants Legal Rights to Stingless Bees 02:40 Negative vs Positive Rights and Who Pays 05:34 Peanut Butter, Welfare Logic, and the Road to Coercion 09:39 Ford Can't Find Mechanics and the Skilled-Trade Shortage 13:02 Seattle's Vacancy Tax and Unintended Consequences 18:33 Why People Misunderstand Loans and “Insurance” 19:58 Variable vs Fixed Rates and Paying Debt Early 22:27 Student Loans, Taxpayer Backstops, and Moral Hazard 24:58 Default, Walking Away, and Real Consequences 28:01 College Incentives: Engineering vs Liberal Arts 30:08 What a Credit Score Measures and Misses 31:29 Credit Utilization and Multiple Cards 33:56 Hard Inquiries, Store Cards, and Credit Score Hits 38:59 Interest, Mortgages, and Paying for Time 42:47 Why the Financial System Works Like Insurance 43:39 Sports Picks and Wrap-Up Learn more about your ad choices.

Picking up where we left off, this episode goes next-level with hard-won insights on gaining — and keeping — the respect you want from others, while truly living from a place of self-compassion and unbreakable boundaries. Leila Hormozi reveals the six must-know tactics to make anyone respect you, drawing from her unique personal and professional leadership experience. Discover how to use consequence (not conversation) to set boundaries, why self-respect is a system (not a feeling), and how to handle toxic relationships and family dynamics like a true “unfuckwithable” woman. With scripts for uncomfortable scenarios, mindset re-frames, and advice on exiting emotional battles with grace, this is the ultimate guide for any woman tired of sacrificing herself for others. If you want to show up with authentic power in every room, this episode is your playbook.

This is our annual “what to expect in the new year” episode, and our hot take is “affordability” is about to be the most overused, and least understood, word of 2026. You're going to hear it everywhere, and this week, we're explaining why that should make you a little nervous.We break down why affordability is becoming the new catch-all word for economic stress, how it's being used to sell certainty in an unstable system, and why more people are about to find themselves saying, “I thought I could afford it.”If you're trying to plan, decide, or stabilize in the year ahead, this episode is your reminder to stop accepting affordability at face value and start defining it in a way that actually protects your life.We get into:Why affordability is always relative, and why it changes faster than people admitThe danger of treating percentages (25%, 30%, 10%) like universal lawsHow 2026 pricing strategies will make more things feel affordable in the momentThe difference between being broke and being overextendedWhy something can fit the budget and still cost you peace, flexibility, or future optionsHow to spot the signs that something isn't actually affordable anymoreA more honest question to ask before you say yes to buying something you think you can “afford” Connect with Julien and Kiersten on our website, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.Join our email list to get updates from us, opportunities for discounts, freebies and a quick rundown on the relevant financial and career news impacting your life.

Donara Jaghinyan – Transformation and Integration Leader Donara joins us to pull back the curtain on why integrations break—and what it actually takes to make them work. With deep experience across healthcare, SaaS, professional services, and financial services in both public and PE-backed environments, Donara has led diligence, post-close integration, TSA execution, and enterprise system implementations. This episode tackles the hard truths about carve-outs, TSA management, day-one readiness, and the cross-functional dependencies that most teams miss until it's too late. If you've ever wondered why integration timelines slip or costs balloon, this conversation delivers the answers. Things you will learn: Why TSAs aren't contracts, they're projects with hard deadlines, cost escalations, and integration dependencies that functional teams consistently underestimate The hidden complexity of carve-outs and how scope, vendor negotiations, and people gaps create surprises even with solid diligence How Integration Management Offices (IMOs) orchestrate cross-functional dependencies that functional leads can't see  _____________

It's easy to tell our friends about why the person you're with isn't making the cut. Your partner has annoying habits, the sex isn't that great, it's not as good as it was when you first hooked up, or they stopped doing the things that grabbed your attention at the beginning.  Of all the reasons we can chat over a bottle (or two) of wine about explaining why our relationship isn't working out, rarely do we reflect on ourselves and how we showed up in that relationship. Stephan Speaks has been helping women (and men) have more fulfilling relationships with the kind of advice that cuts straight through the B.S. and gets right to the heart of the matter. The 100+ million views on his YouTube channel speaks for itself.  How do you avoid another bad relationship? How do you choose the best partner for you and invest your time wisely to find the right partner for you? Lisa is digging in and asking all the questions we think about and Stephan is delivering on the hard truths we don't want to hear, but we need to hear if we're serious about having a loving, long-term, healthy relationship. You deserve to thrive in your relationship and that means bringing all of you and the best of you to the table with your partner. Some the hard issues Original air date: 2-8-23 Stephan and Lisa are hitting on include: Why relationship tricks and hacks don't build meaningful relationships Great sex alone is never a valid reason to stay with anyone Exposing the lies and B.S. we've been told are the “norm” for relationships It's time to stop compromising and setting yourself up for heartache and start making better decisions to find and create the relationship of your dreams.

We can't wait to experience miracles with you!   Welcome to a new episode of the Future Generations Podcast! In this conversation, Dr. Stanton Hom sits down with Jamie Lee, a trauma-forged, intuition-led mother who has become a leading voice in the Heavy Metal Detox Mom Movement. Jamie shares her powerful origin story and walks us through her daughter's early developmental delays, the intense pressure to vaccinate, the dismissive responses from pediatricians, and the moment she said "enough" and took healing into her own hands. Together, they unpack how children are programmed by media, pharma marketing, and the medical system, why speech delays, regressions, ADHD, eczema, and "autism" have been normalized but are not normal, Jamie's experience with heavy metal detox, fulvic, zeolite, and gut healing, and much more! If you're a parent questioning the narrative, feeling the intuitive nudge that "something's off," and wanting practical solutions, this episode will both challenge and empower you.   Highlights:   "These issues have been normalized. They are common, but they are not normal."   "No child should ever move backward in speech or development. A regression is not normal, mamas."    "I just knew I needed to do something now. I was done with this rigamarole with doctors."    "I want a future generation of kids who are unfuckwithable."    Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction 04:05 – Growing Up in Darkness: Learning to Read Energy and Question Authority 07:58 – "Common but Not Normal": Delays, ADHD, and Regressions in Kids 10:26 – Pregnancy, Vaccine Pressure, and the First Crack in Trust 14:52 – Nonverbal at Two: Autism Threat, No Answers, and Walking Away 15:54 – Heavy Metal Detox Breakthrough: Five Days to Speech and Personality 19:00 – Why Today's Kids Are More Toxic Than Ever 32:29 – Zeolite, Fulvic, and Minerals: Jamie's Core Child Healing Protocol 40:17 – Jamie's Mission: Helping Mothers Heal Their Children at Home 53:22 – Non-Negotiables: Whole Foods, Sunlight, Grounding, and Intuition   Resources:   Remember to Rate, Review, and Subscribe on iTunes and Follow us on Spotify!   Learn more about Dr. Stanton Hom on:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drstantonhom  Website: https://futuregenerationssd.com/    Podcast Website: https://thefuturegen.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/drstantonhom  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stanhomdc  Stay Connected with the Future Generations Podcast:   Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/futuregenpodcast  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/futuregenpodcast/    Links:    https://www.thehivemethod.co/ https://www.instagram.com/thehivemethod.co   About Jamie Lee Jamie Lee is the creator of the Heavy Metal Detox Mom movement—a global awareness wave rooted in exposing the truth about developmental delays and hidden toxicity in children.

Through her viral educational content, Jamie empowers mothers to take their children's healing into their own hands with intuition, detox science, and natural solutions. Her work has reached millions and revolutionized the way families approach developmental delays, chronic symptoms, and "mystery" childhood conditions. Jamie is now one of the leading voices in root-cause healing, heavy metal detoxing, and telomere-based regenerative wellness.

Kiersten here. This week's episode is a solo one, and it's inspired by a book I just finished called The Art of Spending Money by Morgan Housel. If you're familiar with The Psychology of Money, you already know Morgan's style: short chapters, clean sentences, and big ideas. This new book is about spending but not the kind most people are struggling with.In this episode, I unpack:Who this book is really forTwo core takeaways that stuck: the psychology of contrast and the sustainability of contentmentA personal reflection on second Christmases, cultural context, and spending through the lens of joyA nuanced breakdown of how happiness is framed in the book and why that definition isn't one-size-fits-allI wouldn't call this a summary per se, it's a review with a little reflection, a little pushback, and hopefully a fresh lens for whatever season you're in.Hit play and let me know what you think.
