Marina Stabile is a Brazilian-born, Swiss-raised producer and line producer with over 20 years of experience in film, documentaries, commercials, and digital content. She is also one of my favorite humans and I'm lucky I get to call her a friend. She grew up in São Paulo, moved to Geneva at 10, attended an international school with 118 nationalities, and knew she wanted to produce after watching the Irving Thalberg Award presented at 3 a.m. on an Oscar broadcast. She studied film and international relations at USC, produced documentaries for the United Nations in Geneva, and returned to the U.S. to earn her MFA in producing at AFI, where her thesis film The Response won a Student BAFTA. Marina's credits span indie and studio, including Miguel Arteta's Beatriz at Dinner starring Salma Hayek, the Sundance Grand Jury Prize–winning Clemency starring Alfre Woodard, Harrison Ford's The Call of the Wild (as VFX supervisor), Searchlight's Hold Your Breath starring Sarah Paulson, The People We Hate at the Wedding, and the pandemic-shot Untitled Horror Movie alongside fellow producer Bronwyn Cornelius. Most recently, she produced Josephine — written and directed by Beth de Araújo and starring Channing Tatum and Gemma Chan — which won both the U.S. Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival before being acquired by Sumerian Pictures in a competitive seven-figure deal. The film went on to screen in competition at the Berlin International Film Festival. In this conversation, we explore how culture impacts your craft, define once and for all what line producers really do, why the best career moves sometimes look like steps backward, and whether Los Angeles is still a special place to make movies. Enjoy!! CG

Lent, historically, at least, is a bit of a heavy season, with an emphasis on penitence, and self-reflection, and those things that are "wrong" in our lives and the life of the world. This year, we're shifting our focus a bit, to the fundamentals of the Gospel...the Good things that are the Good News. And so we start today with Good News from two places in the text, which highlight how the Gospel can surprise us...the Wedding at Cana, and Jesus' Parable of the Mustard Seed. Join us to talk joy, potential, and the goodness of life.

Hattie's got a plot twist: she got married on the weekend, surprise wedding and all. and It sparked a deep convo on one word that changes everything: commitment.This episode breaks down why commitment isn't a vibe, a burst of motivation, or “feeling ready”… it's a practice. The same way you commit to a partner, you can commit to yourself , your training, your goals, your standards, your peace, even when you're not feeling it.You'll hear the mindset shift that stops you quitting every time life gets busy, plus how to build self-trust through micro-promises you actually keep.In this episode:Why commitment gets misunderstood (and how people use motivation as an excuse)The difference between “trying” and being committedKeeping promises to yourself = confidenceDiscipline without self-punishmentHow to stay consistent in training and life when the hype diesIf this hit, follow the show and share it with someone who needs a reset.

THIS IS A REAL GHOST STORIES CLASSIC EPISODE!Kay had a habit in her twenties — visiting places where tragedy had happened, just to see what could be felt.One night, while cutting through a dark bike path in Ottawa, she heard the unmistakable sound of high heels pacing behind her. A woman-shaped figure stood near the tree where a murder had taken place months earlier.The woman asked for help. She said she had lost her wedding ring.Kay offered what little light she had, but the ring was never found. The woman insisted it would be discovered that night.The next morning, Kay's boyfriend — a police officer — told her that when investigators confronted the accused killer with a bag containing the victim's wedding rings, he confessed immediately. Kay still avoids that path.  Because she cannot shake the feeling that the woman she met in the dark wasn't lost at all — just waiting.#GhostEncounter #MurderMystery #HauntedPath #WeddingRing #ParanormalExperience #RealGhostStories #UnfinishedBusiness #SpiritEncounter #TrueGhostStory #HauntingLove real ghost stories?

Jenny's Wedding Cakes was officially born in 1998, inspired by Jenny Williamson's lifelong passion to bake pretty things. She began studying classic food techniques on her own, sparked by inspiration from her icon, Julia Child. Her love for beautiful and exceptional tasting food and desserts led her to continue to self-train in baking and catering while earning a degree in business.  Together with her background in art and education in marketing, she was equipped to start a successful boutique wedding cake business, emphasizing classic aspects of design and style inspired by art, fashion and nature. Since then, she has become known for her original designs, eclectic, sophisticated – yet approachable – flavor selections and warm personal service. Jenny's work has been featured in over 20 wedding publications (three of which were covers), two hard cover books, and two world-wide publications, as well as countless other print publications. She has had the honor of receiving Boston Magazine's 'Best of Boston' award in wedding cakes in the years 2012 and 2018 and has also won the Improper Bostonian 'Boston's Best' for wedding cakes in 2017. Jenny has since taken her business experience and developed an on-line training program, Wedding Cake Business Academy, to help other aspiring wedding cake makers achieve success. Her students have been able to transform their lives to make a career out of their passion, baking and cake making. This will be her focus as she is so grateful for the life her business has given her, and she has made it a mission to share her knowledge with others.  Jenny currently lives in Amesbury, MA with her two teenage daughters.

If your inquiries are slower than usual, this episode is your reminder to take a breath.Because fewer inquiries does not mean you failed. It means the economy shifted, buyers are behaving differently, and the old ways of attracting clients aren't working the same way they used to.In this episode, Rachel breaks down what's actually happening in the market right now and why so many talented photographers are feeling stuck, even when their work is solid and their experience is strong.We talk about how today's buyers are more cautious, slower to commit, and doing far more research before ever hitting “contact.” That doesn't mean they're gone. It means you need to meet them in new places.Rachel walks you through three new doors to knock on when inquiries are down:Visibility channels that work before someone is ready to bookLong-term traffic sources that keep working even when social is quietRelationship-based opportunities that convert warmer, more aligned clientsThen she leaves you with five clear action steps you can take this week to create momentum again without overhauling your entire business or burning yourself out.This episode is part mindset reset, part strategy, and fully designed to help you move forward with confidence instead of panic.You'll walk away with:Reassurance that this slowdown isn't personalA clearer understanding of how buyers are thinking right nowPractical next steps to adapt your strategy and stay booked long-termIf you've been questioning yourself lately, this one's for you.You're not behind.

This week is incredibly special. My wife Melanie and I are celebrating 25 years of marriage. WOW! Twenty-five years since February 17, 2001… and 28 years since I first walked into that graduate teaching assistant meeting at San Diego State University and saw the most beautiful blonde woman with the brightest smile in the room. Little did I know…that woman would become my wife. In this episode, we take you live to Whitefish, Montana, from our Annual Retreat, where Kelli Watson interviews Melanie and me on stage about marriage, faith, parenting, business, hard seasons, deep loss, big dreams, and what it really takes to stay committed for the long haul. I'd like to share part of that interview with you as we received great feedback on it. This one is vulnerable. We talk about the wins, some losses, some wounds, and even some of the arguments. Haha. We talk about relationships, growth, the kids, the calling, and how love looks different 25 years later. If you're married, want to be married, leading a family, building a business, or walking through a tough season—this episode is for you. Check it out… What You'll Learn in This Episode: How our definition of love evolved from "what can I get?" to "how can I serve?" The best marriage advice we ever received. How to navigate tough seasons with a short memory and thick skin. What raising three athletes taught us about teamwork at home. How faith became the foundation that carried us through tragedy. Why second chances and redemption stories matter so deeply to us. The power of walks, car rides, and intentional conversation in staying connected. How to balance personal ambition with shared family goals. What it means to "divide and conquer" in certain seasons of life. Why your spouse's spirit matters more over time than physical attraction. The conversations that shaped us as young parents—and the ones shaping us now. What legacy truly means and how we want to be remembered. What do the next 25-years look like?! Haha. Here are Some of the Interview Questions from Kelli Watson: Todd & Melanie Durkin – 25 Years of Marriage Looking back on 25 years together, what's one thing that has surprised you most about marriage? Every couple goes through seasons—busy, calm, and sometimes stormy. What practices or habits have helped you stay connected through the different seasons of life? You've both supported each other through major career milestones and raising a family. How have you balanced personal dreams with shared goals? What does partnership mean to you now, compared to when you first got married? How do you handle disagreements or tough conversations? Over the years, what small, consistent actions have had the biggest impact on keeping your relationship strong? You've both spoken about faith and purpose. How has your faith influenced your marriage and the way you lead as a couple? If your younger selves could sit in the audience today, what advice would you give them about love, communication, and commitment? How has your definition of love changed from year one to year twenty-five? And finally, what's next for the two of you--as a couple, as parents, and as partners in life and impact? We've done a lot in 25-years. We walked through tragedy. We've built businesses. We've raisedthree incredible kids. We've sold a company. We're launching another. We've grown in faith. We've wrestled through conflict. And we've learned that love deepens when you serve, not when you keep score. I have fallen more in love with Melanie's spirit today than I did even 25 years ago. Her faith. Her discipline. Her heart for serving others through the Durkin Impact Foundation. Her mothering our 3-kids. I'm more convinced than ever that when your marriage is rooted in faith, purpose, love, and understanding, and good communication, it can weather anything. If this episode touched you, challenged you, or encouraged you—please like it, share it, and follow the show. Send it to someone who needs hope in their marriage or encouragement in their family. Let's keep building strong families, strong faith, and strong legacies together. IG: @ToddDurkin  FB: @ToddDurkinFQ10 @ImpactXSanDiego **** P.S. #1.  TD MASTERMIND – Are You Ready to Level Up?
