Does being “the strong one” actually make you a better leader—or is it quietly destroying your joy, your confidence, and your capacity as a high-achieving Christian woman in business?If you're a Christian woman in leadership, a faith-driven entrepreneur, or a high-capacity professional who's used to holding everything together, this episode of the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast with Kerri Roberts will speak directly to you. You'll learn why hiding your needs is costing you relationally, spiritually, and professionally—and what godly success really looks like when your strength and your humanity live in the same room.Kerri Roberts, Christian business and HR consultant, unpacks the emotional, cultural, and spiritual layers behind why high-achieving Christian women default to “strength,” even when it leads to burnout, isolation, and under-recognition. Through Scripture, data, leadership psychology, and real-world corporate stories, she helps you see how embracing your needs is actually a mark of maturity—not weakness.If you're ready to lead with clarity, identity, and confidence rooted in Christ—not performance—this episode shows you where to begin.Kerri shares her own journey as a strong, assertive, high-capacity woman and reveals the hidden costs that come with carrying more than God ever asked you to. You'll learn how faith-driven leadership, emotional health, and unapologetic communication can transform your business, your relationships, and your sense of purpose. Whether you're negotiating compensation, navigating gender norms, leading a team, or carrying the mental load at home, this conversation brings freedom, Scripture, and strategy together for the Christian woman in business who is tired of doing it all alone.Key TakeawaysHigh-capacity Christian women often hide their needs, leading to burnout, invisibility, and diminished leadership impact.Gender norms and workplace expectations still shape how strong women are perceived, especially in male-dominated leadership environments.Scripture affirms the strength, wisdom, and voice of Christian women, including the boldness of the Proverbs 31 woman and the equal worth declared in Galatians 3:28.Being “the strong one” becomes unhealthy when it turns into martyrdom, self-silencing, or over-functioning in relationships or work.Healthy, faith-driven leadership requires preparation, assertive communication, boundaries, data-driven negotiation, and emotional honesty.SponsorThis episode is brought to you by HR in a Box — the complete people-operations system for small Christian-led businesses who want healthy culture, biblical leadership, legal compliance, and scalable HR foundations.

Reach beats creative. That's the contrarian truth most marketers miss. A 2x better creative won't beat 100x greater reach. And yet brands keep choosing frequency over breadth, hyper-targeting over scale. This week, we're sharing a special recording from Brandweek. Angela is joined on-stage by Dale Harrison. Together, they dig into reach primacy: the idea that ongoing reach, not creative brilliance, drives share of market. They explore why brand recall at purchase matters more than top of mind awareness, how forgetting forces you into always on campaigns, and why light buyers fuel growth. Plus, learn how AI driven media buying slashes TV costs while expanding reach across linear and CTV. Topics covered: [01:00] Why reach is more powerful than creative effectiveness[03:00] Brand recall at purchase and the 95-5 rule[06:00] Reach as a rate, not a number[11:00] The danger of hyper-targeting on CTV[13:00] Why TV gets unfairly labeled as expensive[16:00] Using multiple measurement models to prove TV performance To learn more, visit marketingarchitects.com/podcast or subscribe to our newsletter at marketingarchitects.com/newsletter.

In this solo episode of Don't Waste the Chaos, Kerri Roberts, Christian business & HR consultant and founder of Salt & Light Advisors, opens up about a deeper tension many high-achieving Christians carry but rarely say out loud: when ambition, excellence, and drive cross the line from worship to idolatry. Drawing from her own story as a COO in the insurance industry, Kerri shares how private jets, big titles, and record-breaking performance still left her 50 pounds heavier, exhausted, bitter, and spiritually depleted.Kerri walks listeners through the difference between godly excellence and achievement-as-an-idol for anyone in leadership: employees, executives, entrepreneurs, and business owners. She unpacks the cultural pull toward workaholism and toxic productivity, where identity becomes fused to output and status, and pairs it with the biblical call to worship God alone, honor our limits, and receive Sabbath as a gift instead of a rule. Scriptures like Exodus 20:3 and Colossians 3:23 frame the conversation and help listeners recognize when work, money, or achievement has taken the functional place of God.Finally, Kerri offers six practical guardrails for faith-driven professionals who want to keep excellence but lose the bondage: redefining success beyond output, building real rhythms of rest, creating boundaries and delegation (including automations), seeking accountability and community, regularly checking motives and heart posture, and leading people instead of worshiping productivity. With honest stories about motherhood, job loss, identity, money guilt, and rebuilding her life and business with healthier rhythms, Kerri invites Christian leaders to pause, reflect, and choose one concrete step toward grace, balance, and true godly success.Key TakeawaysExcellence is biblical—but it's not your identity. Workaholism is a warning sign, not a virtue. Idolatry is often subtle and internal. Healthy excellence honors human limits. You can rewrite your relationship with work.

The holidays are fun, but once the presents are unwrapped, there's a lot of trash to deal with, as well as the Christmas tree that dries out and needs to go to the curb. There's another year-round issue... many of those toys have lithium-ion batteries that can't simply be thrown in the trash. We speak with Daniel Gallagher, project manager with Hillsborough County's Solid Waste Department, on both of these issues. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What if everything you thought about muscle building, fat loss, and strength training was backwards? In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, host Ben Azadi sits down with Dr. John Jaquish, biomedical engineer, inventor, and author of Weight Lifting Is a Waste of Time, for a deep-dive conversation that challenges traditional fitness dogma. Dr. Jaquish explains why conventional weightlifting, bulking, and endless cardio are inefficient, unnecessary, and often counter-productive for real body recomposition. He shares the science behind variable resistance training, how high protein intake drives metabolism, why low carbohydrate thresholds matter, and how your body can build muscle and burn fat simultaneously without joint destruction or outdated exercise myths. Whether you lift weights regularly or you've ever felt stuck in your progress, this episode will flip your assumptions about muscle, fat loss, and strength gains — and give you a new framework to achieve both lean muscle and metabolic freedom. Key Topics Covered • Why body recomposition is possible at all fitness levels • How variable resistance training (like X3) outperforms traditional lifting • Why high protein consumption accelerates fat loss • The science behind low carbohydrate thresholds for muscle glycogen • Myths about how much protein the body can absorb • Why calories are a flawed measure for muscle growth • Essential amino acids, creatine, peptides — what works and when • How short, high-intensity training minimizes joint wear • Why traditional cardio rarely drives body recomposition Books Mentioned

A scheme intended to be the solution to long-standing traffic congestion in North Clare has been branded a "waste of taxpayers' money". Judicial review proceedings in relation to the Ennistymon Inner Relief Road have reached a conclusion in the High Court, paving the way for the progression of the scheme. The project involves the construction of a new bridge in Ennistymon across the Cullenagh River, approximately 80 metres upstream of the existing Michael Conway Bridge. In September 2022, An Bórd Pleanála approved Clare County Council's Compulsory Purchase Order to acquire lands and buildings necessary for the construction of the bridge. The plans hit a stumbling block in November of that year, however, as a judicial review was sought and this effectively brought the project to a standstill. Almost three years later, in October of this year, the High Court dismissed the application for leave to bring a judicial review against the CPO. With the proceedings now having concluded with the mutual consent of all parties, the development can finally go ahead. Ennistymon Fianna Fáil Councillor Shane Talty says those affected by construction will be contacted by the local authority in the near future. The conversation around a solution to traffic congestion at Blake's Corner has spanned several decades and has often been contentious. A campaign has been led in recent years by a group named 'Save Ennistymon Heritage' to prevent any damage being caused to the listed buildings of Blake's and Linnane's. Donogh O'Loghlin, who runs a drapers on Lahinch's main street, believes the proposed scheme will create more bottlenecks.

Jonathan Kipnis is a neuroscientist, the Alan A. and Edith L. Wolff Distinguished Professor of Pathology and Immunology at Washington University, St. Louis, who discovered meningeal lymphatics and has been a prolific researcher in brain drainage and the continuous immune system surveillance of the brain.I made this infographic with the help of Notebook LM to summarize many of the concepts we discussed. (Notebook LM is free and worth trying)We went over his new review with 24 co-author leading experts in the recent issue of NeuronA Clever Cover The drainage system anatomy on influx and efflux (blue arrows)The 3 ways the flow of glymphatics are modulated. I mentioned the recent studies that show atrial fibrillation, via reduced cardiac pulsation, has an effect on reducing glymphatic flow. We also discussed his recent review on the immune surveillance system in Cell:A schematic of key channels for the “faucet” and “drain” and how the system changes from healthy to central nervous system autoimmune diseases (such as multiple sclerosis) and aging with different immune bar codes.The outsized role of astrocytes in the brain, a subject of recent Nature feature, was also mentioned.Our understanding of the brain's immune system has been completely revamped. Kipnis's recent review in Nature Immunology highlights the critical role of the outer layers —the skull, dura and meninges—as an immune reservoir that is ready to detect and react abnormalities in the brain with a continuous “intelligence report.”Notably, Kipnis touched on lymphatic-venous anastomosis (LVA) surgery (Figure below) for Alzheimer's disease which is popular in China, available at 30 centers in multiple cities, and the subject of multiple randomized trials as a treatment for Alzheimer's. Trials of LVA surgery are also getting started in the United States for treatment of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Here is a Figure to show the surgical anastomoses (connections) from the deep cervical lymphatics to external jugular and internal jugular veinsThis podcast was packed with insights relevant to health, spanning sleep quality, sleep medications, autoimmune diseases, and Alzheimer's disease. I hope you find it as informative and engaging as I did.A Poll************************************This is my 4-year anniversary of writing Ground Truths. Post number 250!

In this episode, Chris asks the uncomfortable but necessary question, pointing to staggering examples like billions lost to Medicaid and Medicare fraud, runaway Pentagon spending, and a political system that refuses to follow the money. From Washington's culture of grift and lobbyist-driven spending to foreign aid and defense dollars flushed down the drain, this is a blunt look at why trust in government has collapsed. If taxes are meant to serve the public good, where exactly is the accountability—and why are taxpayers still being asked to foot the bill?

074 As human beings our nervous system is evolutionarily wired for connection. While our life circumstances have changed radically, our neolithic brains are still playing catch up in the modern world. When a rupture happens in a close relationship we feel it on a primal level. Core fear gets stirred that harken back to early childhood experiences and even deeper survival instincts coded in our genes. In a time when more than half of marriages end in divorce it is critical to understand a roadmap for self care and the science of a good break up.In this episode of Awake In Relationship I speak with Cole Zesiger a break up coach and author of Ex's and No's: The Breakup Advice You Don't Want to Hear. In this conversation we talk about the evolutionary biology driving our most extreme feelings and coping strategies during the end of a long term relationship. We also discuss how attachment styles inform our approach to conflict and point us to a profound path of personal growth, insight and renewal.
The global push for carbon reduction is reshaping supply chains in unexpected ways. As aviation looks for viable paths to decarbonize, attention has turned to materials that already exist in everyday life. Waste, once treated as an endpoint, is increasingly viewed as a starting point. Used cooking oil is being elevated into a prized raw material in China as sustainable aviation fuel. Are environmental goals, industrial capacity, and global demand happily colliding here? / AI hits the streets: from sidewalks to startups (13:42). On the show: Niu Honglin, Laiming & Yushun

Send me a messageWhat if the fastest way to decarbonise shipping isn't a shiny new fuel, but the waste it's already throwing away?Shipping moves 90% of global trade, yet it's still one of the hardest sectors to decarbonise. In this episode, I'm joined by Nicholas Ball, CEO and founder of XFuel, to unpack why cost, physics, and adoption matter more than climate theatre when cutting emissions at scale.Nicholas leads a company turning difficult waste streams, including oily residues from ships themselves, into fully compliant drop-in fuels for shipping and aviation. These fuels work in existing engines, use existing infrastructure, and can deliver up to 85% lifecycle emissions reductions without charging shipowners three to five times more than fossil fuels. That last point matters. A lot.We dig into why shipping is so price-sensitive, why infrastructure uncertainty is paralysing fuel decisions, and why waiting for perfect solutions risks locking in higher emissions for decades. You'll hear why XFuel focuses on waste-based and recycled carbon fuels, how lifecycle emissions are verified under EU rules, and why “drop-in” isn't a marketing term, it's the difference between pilots and adoption.We also tackle hydrogen head-on. Why it's massively inefficient as a fuel. Why scarce renewable electricity should be used to decarbonise grids and industry first. And why electrification should happen everywhere it can, with fuels reserved for sectors that genuinely have no alternative.If you care about climate tech that actually scales, real-world decarbonisation, and cutting emissions in sectors that don't have easy answers, this conversation matters.

In this episode, Jason Schroeder breaks down a counterintuitive but powerful idea that explains why so many projects never truly improve: money hides waste. Through real construction examples, including data centers and everyday field decisions, Jason shows how throwing money at problems masks poor systems, bad planning, and missed opportunities for real improvement. What you'll learn in this episode: Why excess money can prevent teams from seeing and fixing real problems. How rushed, overfunded projects often abandon lean thinking and production systems. The connection between money, time, and other resources masking waste. Why solving problems without money builds better thinking and stronger systems. What Japanese craftsmanship and preservation reveal about waste and value. If money were no longer available as a quick fix, what problems on your projects would finally be forced into the open?

Today on the Steve Gruber Show, State Rep. Gina Johnsen of Michigan's 78th District joins the conversation about the Michigan DOGE Task Force Initiative, a Republican-led effort to cut government waste, eliminate inefficiency, and restore accountability and transparency in state government. As a member of the task force, she explains how lawmakers are looking at everything from bloated administrative costs to overlapping departments so taxpayer dollars can be better directed toward veterans, families, and those truly in need, not buried in bureaucracy. Johnsen's work reflects common-sense, taxpayer-first governance and puts a spotlight on reform that aims to strengthen trust in government.
