Mike Williams reflects on a previous speech given two years ago about initiating a new restoration movement at Harding University. He discusses the need for a renewed movement inspired by revolutionary change rather than traditional methods, highlighting the shortcomings of current approaches to keep youth engaged with the church. The speaker addresses the importance of the 'defining decade' in young adults' lives, emphasizing the role of faith-based higher education in shaping future leaders and revolutionaries. Personal anecdotes and larger calls for ecumenical unity underscore the urgency of abandoning sectarianism and fostering a dynamic, engaged faith community.

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! Dive into Andrew and Shane's review of the legacy sequel version of I Know What You Did Last Summer before they talk some additional new releases and a 2025 movie year check-in with Fantastic Four on the horizon.

Assalamualaikum,We've reached the final portion of Surah al-Wāqiʿah, and it's been a beautiful journey. Each week, we recited, studied Tajwīd, and reflected practically on what these ayāt mean for our lives.Tajwīd Highlights* Madd Munfasil vs Muttasil:If the wave sign (madd) is in two words, it's munfasil → read 4 harakat.If it's in one word, it's muttasil → read 4 harakat.I keep it simple: when you see the wave, go 4 — unless there's a shaddah or sukun, then it's 6.* Heavy Letters like ص (Ṣād):You lift the back of your tongue, not your lips.Don't shape it like “soo” — it's not lip work, it's tongue elevation.* Light Letter vs. Heavy:Try saying س (Seen) and ص (Ṣād) back-to-back.The makhraj is similar, but ṣād is heavier because of that tongue lift.* Letter ض (Ḍād) – tricky but unique.It's not made with the tip — it's the sides of the tongue touching the molars.Push right or left, or both sides if you can.There's also a bit of stretch — not like dhal, not a heavy “d”, but truly ḍād.* Idghām Without Ghunnah:Example: Fasalāmun laka — tanwīn meets lām → merge it without nasal sound.No humming here.Tafsīr: Ayah 88 to 96Previously, we looked at how Allah divided humanity into three groups on the Day of Judgement:* As-Sābiqūn al-Muqarrabūn – the foremost in goodness, those drawn near to Allah.* Ashābul-Yamīn – the people of the right, honoured and saved.* Ashābush-Shimāl – the people of the left, those who face punishment.We saw the signs in nature: fire, water, creation. The Qur'an kept asking us to reflect. These were not abstract reminders — they were close and real. The question remains: where do we stand?The Qur'an and the StarsEarlier in this passage, Allah took a unique oath:فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَاقِعِ النُّجُومِThen I swear by the positions of the stars –وَإِنَّهُ لَقَسَمٌ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌAnd indeed, it is a great oath, if you only knew.Allah is linking the stars to the Qur'an. Why?Like the stars, the Qur'an from afar can look like a beautiful mess — dazzling, but hard to make sense of.But if you study the stars, you find direction. They guide travellers at sea and in the desert. Likewise, if you study the Qur'an, it becomes your compass. You begin to see the inner structure, the ring composition, the coherence.We need to dig deeper. The Qur'an is not for the lazy. It calls us to think, reflect, and remember.What Are You Waiting For?Allah ends the Surah by asking us:أَفَبِهَـٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدْهِنُونَIs it this statement (Qur'an) that you take lightly?And then reminds us of the moment of death:فَلَوْلَا إِن كُنتُمْ غَيْرَ مَدِينِينَ . تَرْجِعُونَهَا إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَThen why, if you are not to be recompensed, do you not return the soul – if you are truthful?This is the challenge. If we truly had power, we could stop death. But we can't.We now reach the final ayat of Surah al-Wāqiʿah, and once again, Allah brings our attention to the three categories of people.1. The MuqarrabūnFor the ones nearest to Allah, they receive:فَرَوْحٌ وَرَيْحَانٌ وَجَنَّةُ نَعِيمٍThen [for him is] rest and bounty and a garden of pleasure.These are people who go above the bare minimum. They chase virtue — extra prayers, fasting, charity — and draw close to Allah through constant remembrance and Qur'an.2. Ashābul-Yamīnفَسَلَامٌ لَّكَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الْيَمِينِ“Peace for you” — from the people of the right.They fulfilled their obligations. They weren't perfect, but they remained faithful and upright.3. The Deniers and the Misguidedوَأَمَّا إِن كَانَ مِنَ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ الضَّالِّينَBut if he is from those who denied and were astray…They receive the opposite: punishment with scalding water and burning fire.Note how both traits are mentioned: denial and misguidance. It's not just about not knowing — it's rejecting after knowing.According to Imām al-Ghazālī, before a person is truly culpable for disbelief, five conditions must be met:* The message reaches them.* It is explained reasonably.* Doubts are clarified.* Time is given.* They still choose to reject.Yaqīn — The Stages of CertaintyAllah ends the Surah by declaring:إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقُّ ٱلْيَقِينِThis is the certainty of truth — ḥaqq al-yaqīn.The Qur'an speaks of three levels of yaqīn (certainty):* ʿIlm al-yaqīn — certainty through knowledge (e.g. seeing smoke and knowing there's fire)* ʿAyn al-yaqīn — certainty through seeing (you see the fire itself)* Ḥaqq al-yaqīn — certainty through experience (you touch the fire — and you're burned)We're meant to reach yaqīn through study and reflection, not wait for divine intervention or signs in the sky. That's why Allah constantly invites us to think.Dhikr ChallengeTry to say “ِسُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ الْعَظِيْم (SubḥānAllāh wa bihamdihi SubḥānAllāhi L-Azim)” 100 times in the morning.Make it a daily habit.فَسَبِّحْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الْعَظِيمِSo glorify the name of your Lord, the Most GreaA Final Du‘āاللَّهُمَّ ٱجْعَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلْمُقَرَّبِينَ، وَمِنْ أَصْحَابِ ٱلْيَمِينِ، وَنَجِّنَا مِنَ ٱلضَّالِّينَO Allah, make us from those drawn near, from the people of the right, and protect us from being among the misguided.Next Week: Surah al-ḤujurātNext week, we begin a new series — Surah al-Ḥujurāt. It's a short surah, but packed with guidance on adab, community ethics, and dealing with others.See you then, in shā' Allāh. This is a public episode.

If you can't clearly and confidently explain who you are and what you do in 30 seconds, you're not alone… but it's costing you.We all speak every day. But few of us know how to truly communicate in a way that inspires action.In Episode 150 of THE POWER OF RE:INVENTION (yes, 150!), I'm joined by Shelley Goldstein, known as The Coach Whisperer, who shares what it really takes to embody your messaging and stop shrinking in rooms where you belong.Shelley has worked with thousands of professionals across five continents. Her #1 international bestselling book, Remarkable Speaking: A Framework to Embody Your Voice and Your Vision, is for anyone who wants to show up with more presence.In this episode, Shelley breaks down: • The hidden impact of labels like “introvert” or “imposter” • How to reframe fear when you're stepping into something new • Why storytelling is still your greatest communication tool • Her signature “sprint method” to unlock clarity in minutesWe first crossed paths at Ringling Brothers, Shelley was designing, I was handling PR. Even then, she had that rare blend of presence and purpose. Today, she teaches others how to find it in themselves.If you've ever wanted your words to reflect your value, this one's for you.Key Takeaways:You do not need to be a professional speaker to speak with powerPersonal storytelling builds connection and credibilityLabels like introvert, extrovert, or job title often limit our potentialReframing how you think about speaking is the first step to growthEffective communication is about essence, not perfectionConfidence comes from clarity, repetition and self-ownershipEveryone deserves to be heard, not just the loudest voice in the roomExplore Remarkable Speaking www.remarkablespeaking.comFollow Shelley LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/shelleygoldsteinYouTube: www.youtube.com/@remarkablespeakingBook (Amazon): https://a.co/d/5eocSAoFor more inspired content, blogs, podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

photo credit Amanda Peterson Back in April of this year, Tell Us Something traveled to Butte, America to bring Tell Us Something to an enthusiastic group of listeners at The Covellite Theatre. Founder and Executive Director Marc Moss shared a story about the first time we held a Tell Us Something event in Butte, which was at The Covellite. The first time in Butte, back in 2019, Marc had to buy time because the evening's first storyteller, Pat, was late. Listen as Marc shares that story, which is more than just a story of Tell Us Something in Butte, it’s an honoring of his friendship with Pat Williams. Pat Williams shared this story at Tell Us Something in front of a live audience on February 18th, 2014, at the Top Hat Lounge in Missoula, MT. The theme was “What Are You Waiting For”. Bing Crosby spends time in Butte, MT to fish and get away from the spotlight fame brought him in the 1940s and 50s. He is mis-recognized by a pedestrian on the street. Bing then shares a story with Pat about Blue the Bear in the Jungle Book (Phil Harris) and drinking whiskey. Pat Williams • October 30, 1937 – June 25, 2025 Pat Williams, Montana's longest-serving U.S. House member, dies at 87 Click here to read Pat’s tribute at The Montana Free Press.

What if the version of YOU you're aiming for doesn't speak your language yet?Who will you be that you're currently not, to be able to yield the result you're looking for - the “beingness?”Beth Handel, executive life coach, former co-founder of Handel Group, and the coach leaders call when they're ready to shift for real, has the answers and we go deep into the conversation in this episode of THE POWER OF REINVENTION.  Beth has worked with major corporate C-Suite teams (I call her the “Wendy from Billions”) and coached such business luminaries like Gary Vaynerchuk/Vayner Media, Live Nation, NFL players - Justin Pugh and Nolan Carroll, and thousands of executives and creatives ready to rethink how they lead, live, and grow.She shares her “six-week mirror” method for Reinvention, tracking where you're not showing up as the person you say you want to be. We explore how logging negative thoughts changes your internal script, what makes performance coaching different from therapy, and why most people avoid the work of change.Beth reflects on the influence of Dr. Joe Dispenza's work on reprogramming thought patterns, and reveals how our inner voice often holds more sway than we realize.Beth also opens up about her own recent Reinvention leaving New York at 65 and building a brand-new life in Los Angeles. From mindset to leadership to redefining what's next, this episode is packed with real tools and truth.Key TakeawaysYour future depends on who you're becomingReinvention starts by noticing where you're not that person yetLogging your inner voice is the first step to rewriting itCoaching works best when you're ready to be honestCulture change begins with leadership, not HRThere's no expiration date on choosing something newResources & LinksWork with Beth or reach out:Email: beth@kibbutz.coachConnect with Beth online:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/beth-handel-9715795/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bethhandel_coachFor more inspired content, blogs, podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

In Episode 146 of THE POWER OF RE:INVENTION, I connect with global changemaker, nonprofit leader, and author Neil Ghosh to explore a kind of meaningful Reinvention that's rooted in empathy, reflection and intentional impact.Neil opens up about his personal journey—from childhood dreams of becoming a doctor to building a purpose-driven career across government, business and global philanthropy. His encounters with the Dalai Lama, President Clinton and others have influenced him along the way.  We explore the pivots, pauses, and personal revelations that shaped his path, and how choosing to do good—on any scale—requires both courage and consistency.This conversation also explores the ideas behind Neil's upcoming book, Do More Good, which gathers life lessons and stories from extraordinary individuals he's encountered throughout his journey. His message is clear: making a difference doesn't have to be overwhelming. It can start small, and it can start now.Together, we unpack what it means to lead with empathy, how to stay grounded in a noisy world, and why Reinvention often begins not with a plan, but with one intentional act.Key Takeaways:Reinvention starts with reflection. The most powerful changes often come from quiet personal insight.Small, intentional acts can ripple outward. Doing good doesn't require a platform—just presence.Mentorship is a form of legacy.

What Are You Waiting For? This week's message focuses on the meaning and significance of baptism, through the lens of Acts 22:6–16—Paul's account of his transformation and baptism. Pastor Vicki begins by asking a personal question: What has been your experience with baptism? In Scripture, baptism is a powerful and public response to the saving work of Jesus—a visible expression of new life and a covenant made with God. Across multiple passages (Acts 2, 8, 16, and 22), we see a consistent pattern: when people meet Jesus, they respond with immediate, wholehearted obedience. Baptism is never delayed. It's a next step of surrender. Pastor Vicki reminds us that baptism is both sacrament and symbol—a mystery of God's grace at work and a declaration that our lives now belong to Jesus. She explores what it means to enter a covenant with God and why it's so important to make that commitment public. As Paul recalls in Acts 22, he is told, “What are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on His name.” So today, we ask you the same question: What are you waiting for? Discussion Questions What has been your experience with baptism? What did you notice about the New Testament baptism passages that were shared in the message? What did they have in common? What is a covenant? What is the relationship between baptism and covenant? Why is a public declaration of faith in Jesus important? What is the relationship between baptism and new life in Jesus? How is baptism a sacrament? Explain the significance of God taking the initiative in baptism. Would you consider being baptized (if you never have been) or remembering your baptism? What are you waiting for?

What if we're only in the lightbulb stage of AI—and the real disruption is still ahead?In this episode of THE POWER OF RE:INVENTION, I welcome Jack Myers, a visionary media ecologist, author, and leadership strategist who has spent decades at the forefront of media transformation. With experience at CBS-TV, ABC Radio, and as the founder of The Myers Report and MediaVillage Education Foundation, Jack brings a rare perspective on how industries evolve—and what it takes to lead through change.This conversation dives deep into Jack's newest book, The Tao of Leadership: Harmonizing Technological Innovation and Human Creativity in the AI Era, and his powerful belief that we are just scratching the surface of what AI will mean for our industries, culture, and creativity. As Jack puts it, we're not even in the internet age of AI—we're still in the lightbulb stage. The implications for media, storytelling, and leadership are just beginning to unfold.We explore the urgent need for leaders who prioritize the human side of innovation—empathy, ethics, and emotional intelligence—and why creativity, not just efficiency or data, must lead the charge. Jack also shares insights on how AI is rapidly accelerating the decline of legacy media, and what it will take for the next generation to rise, adapt, and thrive in a completely transformed landscape.And one of the most powerful reminders from this episode? It's not about what happened in the past—it's about what we do right now.Whether you're a media veteran, a future-focused creative, or just trying to understand how AI will impact your world, this episode is packed with foresight, inspiration, and a call to action for anyone ready to Reinvent with purpose.Key Takeaways:We're still in the “lightbulb moment” of AI—what's coming will reshape industries in ways we can't fully imagine yet.True leadership in the AI era will depend on our ability to balance innovation with humanity.Creativity and empathy must guide our response to data-driven disruption.The future of media and storytelling belongs to those who embrace change, empower others, and reinvent boldly.Jacks Personal Website: www.jackmyers.comOrder Now: Amazon and all booksellersTHE RE:INVENTION EXCHANGEFor more Inspired Content, Blogs, Podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

In this episode, I'm joined by the brilliant and boundary-breaking Juel D. Lane—choreographer, dancer, director, and creative visionary. We had the pleasure of meeting through the incredible dance company I'm on the board of, BODYTRAFFIC.From performing in Jesus Christ Superstar Live and Amazon's Harlem, to creating original works for BODYTRAFFIC, Ailey II, Dallas Black Dance Theatre, Atlanta Ballet, and beyond, Juel has carved out a space in the dance world that's entirely his own.But behind the accolades is a story of deep self-discovery, doubt, and fearless creativity. In this candid conversation, Juel opens up about his journey from a young boy obsessed with movement to becoming a nationally celebrated artist and choreographic leader. He talks about the internal battles with imposter syndrome, the power of social media as a modern-day stage, and how finding the right community has helped him thrive, grow, and continually Reinvent himself.Now serving as the Director of the Choreographic Institute at UNC School of the Arts, Juel reflects on the lessons he's learned—about risk-taking, vulnerability, identity, and the discipline of creativity. Whether you're an artist, a dreamer, or someone navigating your own next chapter, Juel's story will inspire you to own your narrative, trust your talent, and keep dancing forward—even when you're unsure of the next step.Key Takeaways:Reinvention means showing up even when you don't feel “ready”—especially when you don't.Owning your creativity requires both discipline and vulnerability.Confidence isn't given—it's built by standing in your story and doing the work.Connection, community, and mentorship are everything in the creative process.Juel's Website: https://jueldlane.com/Juel's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jueldlane/?hl=en THE RE:INVENTION EXCHANGE - for more Inspired Content, Blogs, Podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

What does it really take to reinvent yourself, build a successful career, and create opportunities instead of waiting for them? Maha Abouelenein knows firsthand.In Episode 143 of THE POWER OF RE:INVENTION, host Kathi Sharpe-Ross is joined by Maha Abouelenein, a strategic communication expert, best-selling author, and entrepreneur with more than three decades of experience working with some of the world's most recognized brands. As CEO and Founder of Digital and Savvy, a global communications firm with offices in the U.S. and UAE, Maha has helped Google, Netflix, VaynerX, high-profile CEOs, and major global organizations craft their message, build credibility, and transform their communications strategies.But Maha's career isn't just about high-stakes deals and global campaigns—it's about resilience, self-reliance, and the ability to start over at any stage of life. She shares her journey of moving from Minnesota to Egypt at 27 with no network, figuring it all out, and building a name for herself in the Middle East. Then, at 50 years old, when the pandemic hit, Maha made the bold decision to leave Dubai within 24 hours and move back to the U.S.—this time with no job, no connections, and no guarantees.Maha dives deep into the power of confidence, the reality of creating your own opportunities, and why waiting to “feel ready” is the biggest mistake people make. She also shares insights from her USA TODAY best-selling book, The Seven Rules of Self-Reliance, which outlines strategies for building confidence, mastering personal branding, and taking control of your future.This episode is packed with real talk about Reinvention, from pivoting careers to navigating cultural identity, from networking the right way to understanding why self-reliance is the foundation of success.If you're looking for practical advice on how to take charge of your career, build a powerful personal brand, and unlock new opportunities, this is the episode for you.Key Takeaways:Reinvention is possible at any age and any stage—you just have to be willing to put in the work.Confidence isn't a prerequisite—it's a result of taking action.You don't wait for opportunities—you create them.Self-reliance is the foundation of personal and professional growth.Maha's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maha-abouelenein/details/experience/Maha's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mahagaber/?hl=enDigital & Savvy: https://digitalandsavvy.com/Maha's Personal Website: https://www.mahaabouelenein.com/Order Your Own Copy of Seven Rules of Self-Reliance: https://a.co/d/gZMFCPjTHE RE:INVENTION EXCHANGE - for more Inspired Content, Blogs, Podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

In this episode of THE POWER OF RE:INVENTION, Kathi Sharpe-Ross talks with Adam Mizel, co-founder and CEO of US United, about his unexpected journey—from high-stakes finance to leading a national movement for unity.Adam grew up in New Jersey with dreams of making it big on Wall Street. For years, he thrived in the fast-paced world of finance, negotiating billion-dollar deals and treating every day like a high-stakes battle. He embraced the challenge, but as his career evolved, so did his perspective. When his wife became pregnant with their first child, Adam started questioning what success really meant. After years of bouncing between roles in private equity and leadership positions, he found himself drawn to something more meaningful—creating a space for people to reconnect in an increasingly divided world.Now, as the leader of US United, a non-partisan nonprofit dedicated to breaking down social and political barriers, Adam travels the country fostering real conversations and leading initiatives like the Concert for Unity and 30 for Us. This episode is about stepping away from what's expected and building something that truly matters. If you've ever felt like you were chasing a dream that no longer fit, this conversation is for you.If you want to be a unifier and bring people together in your everyday life, here are 10 things you can do for unity—any day, anywhere:Wear Purple – A universal color of unity and a simple way to spark conversation about coming together.Take the Unity Pledge – Commit to listening, understanding, and finding common ground with those around you. (Check out US United's pledge!)Join a 30 for Us Event – Get out of your bubble and engage in real, meaningful conversations with people from different backgrounds.Support the Holiday Spectacular – Participate in a community-driven initiative that spreads joy and connection during the holidays.Reach Out to Someone You've Lost Touch With – Reconnect with an old friend, co-worker, or family member to rebuild relationships and bridge past differences.Start a Unity Challenge – Encourage friends or co-workers to step outside their comfort zones, talk to someone new, or volunteer together.Help Someone Out—No Strings Attached – Whether it's a kind word, buying someone coffee, or lending a hand, small acts of generosity can create ripples of connection.Break the Social Media Bubble – Challenge yourself to follow and engage with perspectives different from your own, and promote messages of understanding.Host a Unity Dinner or Meetup – Gather people from diverse backgrounds to share a meal and real conversations—because food has always been a great unifier.Lead by Example – Speak up for inclusion, promote respect in your community, and make unity a part of your everyday interactions.Unity isn't just a big event—it's a daily mindset. The more we show up for each other, the stronger our communities become.Key Takeaways:The definition of success changes as life unfolds—stay open to where it leads.High-pressure careers shape us, but true fulfillment comes from purpose.Social media shapes our perceptions, but real conversations change lives.True leadership is about connection, not control.Small, meaningful actions can ripple into large-scale impact.US United Website: https://www.us-united.org/US United IG: https://www.instagram.com/us_united_org/Adam's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adammmizel/THE RE:INVENTION EXCHANGE - for more Inspired Content, Blogs, Podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

A Young Leader's Guide to Changing the World. It's all about inspiring young people to hold onto their big dreams and take action instead of waiting for the "right time." Josh kicks things off by tackling why so many young people stop dreaming big—disillusionment and distraction. He shares how well-meaning advice from parents, teachers, and mentors often pushes kids toward "safe" career paths, causing them to abandon their passions. Add in the constant stream of media, and many end up living vicariously through others instead of pursuing their own purpose. One moment that really hit home for Josh was his daughter's kindergarten graduation, where kids boldly declared dreams of becoming pop stars, dancers, or veterinarians. Fast forward a few years, and those dreams often shrink under the weight of practicality and expectations. But Josh insists that young people are naturally wired to dream—and his book is about keeping that fire alive. At its core, What Are You Waiting For? is for those who feel stuck, cynical, or unsure about their future. Josh's message is clear: You were created for a purpose, and with faith, anything is possible. He especially wants to encourage young leaders to step up now, not later. Josh shares his own story—from growing up in Fairbanks, Alaska, to moving to Australia at 16, which challenged him to grow in independence and faith. Later, at Boise Bible College, he felt called to ministry, leading to 15 years of experience as a youth pastor and eventually planting Hill City Church in Boise. The conversation also covers Hill City's evolution—from a satellite campus to an independent church, merging with an older congregation during the pandemic, and even launching a satellite campus of their own. Josh paints a vivid picture of their historic downtown Boise building, complete with stained glass and deep community roots. Josh also highlights a growing challenge: fewer young people entering church ministry. He hopes his book will be a tool for church leaders to raise up the next generation, encouraging them to step into their calling now instead of waiting for “someday.” One key idea? Young people's greatest strength can be recognizing their own weaknesses—it makes them open to learning and growth. Ultimately, Josh hopes his book will inspire at least one person to step into ministry or intentional service. He sees it as a practical guide for youth groups, internships, and mentorship programs—not just to inspire but to equip. As the episode wraps up, Josh speaks directly to young people feeling lost or discouraged. He's been there and wants them to know—God has a plan for you. Don't wait. Believe in your potential, take action, and trust that God will work through you. His final message? Hope, purpose, and the courage to step into the calling that's already yours.

Welcome to the first episode of 2025! In this episode of THE POWER OF RE:INVENTION, host Kathi Sharpe-Ross kicks off the year with an inspiring conversation featuring Madeline Di Nonno, President and CEO of the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media. Madeline shares how a turning point in her career—when two significant life events collided—pushed her to reimagine her path and embrace Reinvention. She reflects on leaving behind a successful corporate career in entertainment to lead a mission-driven organization advocating for inclusion and representation in media. The conversation explores the challenges and rewards of career transitions, the impact of research and AI on gender bias in storytelling, and the importance of staying adaptable in a rapidly evolving world. Madeline's story reminds us that the most transformative moments often come from life's biggest disruptions. Whether you're navigating your own Reinvention or looking for inspiration to start the year with purpose, this episode offers powerful insights and actionable wisdom to set you on the right path. Key Takeaways: Reinvention often begins with a moment of discomfort—embrace it as an opportunity. Life rarely unfolds in a straight line; sometimes, challenges lead us to the most meaningful paths. Take stock of what truly matters to you and let that guide your decisions. AI and technology are reshaping every industry; staying curious and adaptable is non-negotiable. Reinvention is not a one-time event—it's a mindset that you can revisit whenever life calls for it.

  Episode 314   Hey there! Thank you for checking out this episode.  When I first considered living alcohol-free, like many women, I tried the moderation game. I attempted to control my drinking, set strict rules, and negotiate with myself about when and how much I could drink. It was exhausting and unfulfilling! The night I quit drinking, I made the tough decision to go "all in" on what I wanted more than alcohol. At the time, I was 45 and I desperately wanted to feel better. I had an inkling that my drinking wasn't going to make that possible. The purpose of this episode is to help you understand what I mean by going “all in” on living alcohol-free so we are on the same page. I talk about the meaning and what it doesn't mean: Going all in means spending your precious time and energy working on the most important relationship you have - the one with yourself. It doesn't mean perfection or every single day for the rest of your life sober. Instead of draining your mental energy on moderation rules, when you go “all in”, you can channel that energy into personal growth, self-discovery, and building a life that is more in alignment with your values and goals. The “all-in” approach allows you to: Give yourself space to figure out what helps you stay alcohol-free. You no longer turn to alcohol as a solution because you are the solution now. Focus inward instead of seeking external validation through alcohol and outdated messaging that drinking is “acceptable.” Create meaningful change with yourself instead of the drain that comes with trying to make alcohol work. I know it's not easy to decide to stop drinking. What I encourage you to do in this episode is to honor yourself and what you want more than alcohol daily. I will keep reminding you that you are worth the commitment. Going all in on living alcohol-free is the kindest, most caring, respectful, loving thing that you can do for yourself. I'm with you!  Mentioned in this episode: A Compassionate Approach to What Are You Waiting For?  The Mantras: I am my inspiration. I'm all in on me. I matter more than any sip of alcohol.   Let me help you make living alcohol-free in midlife a better experience!

If you're working on freeing yourself from alcohol, I'm inspired by your perseverance.  And if you're at that crossroads wondering which way to turn, just know that questioning your relationship with alcohol is the first step to change. You can do this. I'm with you.  Thank you for allowing me to be part of your road to alcohol freedom. I'm sending you a big hug! Here's to choosing ourselves in 2025.

Episode 310  What Are You Waiting For? A question and episode that comes with a compassionate approach and encouragement to help you get a clear understanding of what is holding you back from going alcohol-free. Asking this question isn't about the urgency to hurry things up and stop drinking. It's about being honest with yourself and easing your mind if you're worried about your drinking and pressuring yourself to quit. I share what I was waiting for: a “normal” relationship with alcohol. When I realized this didn't exist, I chose to stop drinking. It's not an easy choice to make. I'm with you.  To read this episode's full show notes, click here.  Thank you for listening!  Mentioned in this episode: Team Alcohol-Free enrollment coming soon Private coaching enrollment   Let me help you make living alcohol-free in midlife a better experience!

From creating Marquis Jet and selling it to Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, to venturing into the unknown time and time again, Jesse's story is proof that success is found on the other side of risk. Jesse dives into the art of tackling “the wall” — that point where fear, doubt, and hesitation threaten to stop you. He talks about how he built a mindset that not only pushes through but thrives in uncertainty. When he realized he wanted to experience private jet travel but couldn't afford it, Jesse and his partner went straight to NetJets with nothing but a vision and unshakeable conviction. Against the odds, they secured a deal with Buffett's team, setting the foundation for what became a game-changing business. We also get into why Jesse believes routine kills creativity and how he designs his life around extraordinary experiences. He shares his practice of "Kevin's Rule," a commitment to creating meaningful experiences every two months. Jesse has made it his mission to build a “life resume” filled with unforgettable moments and deep connections. Key Takeaways: Face the Fear Wall: Success often waits on the other side of your greatest fears. Innovate Without Limits: Breaking from tradition can be a competitive advantage. Build Your Life Resume: Pursue experiences that enrich your life and create unforgettable memories. Be Irreplaceable: In every role—parent, partner, or professional—make yourself invaluable. Time is Scarce, Act Accordingly: Treat each moment like it's priceless, because it is. This episode is packed with strategies to turn ambition into action. Jesse's journey reminds us that life is too short to play it safe. Start building the life you want—one bold step at a time! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
