In this first episode of the new COMEBACKS series, I spoke with my longtime friend Jessica Murnane about reinvention, knowing when to move on, and why I tend to linger in the past too long. We talk about creative pivots, grief around letting go, and starting again—without forcing it. Jess shares how she's built multiple careers, moved cities, why she's not nostalgic, and the simple question she always comes back to when she's stuck: What are you waiting for? Let us know if you listen. Key Insights: Starting something new can be the fastest way to let go of something old. Reinvention isn't always strategic—it's often a gut feeling that it's time to move on. Lingering (in careers, relationships, identities) is often about fear, not timing. Nostalgia can keep us stuck. Success isn't recognition or fame—it's often feeling financially and emotionally steady. Movement is one of the best ways to shift your mental state when stuck, even just a few minutes. Aging narratives are mostly cultural noise—you don't have to opt in. And extremely boring.

International Women's Month SeriesBefore the titles, before the boardrooms — there was a belief that shaped everything. Mindy Grossman, Partner & Vice-Chair at Consello, was raised with a simple idea: you've been given a gift — now give it forward.That belief became the throughline of a career that took her from Nike, Inc. to Ralph Lauren Corporation to CEO roles at HSN, Inc. and WW International — transforming brands, industries and expectations along the way.But what defines her most isn't the scale — it's the clarity.The courage to walk away when values don't align.The discipline to say no as much as yes.And the conviction that not taking the risk can be the biggest risk of all.Her mantra: Passion. Purpose. Impact. In that order.

International Women's Month Series. ..still!Deb Curtis has built an extraordinary career leading global marketing at Amazon, shaping brands like Prime and Alexa, with chapters at American Express, L'Oréal, and beyond. But what defines her journey isn't just scale—it's a single pivot early on that changed everything.As a college freshman, a simple but profound question—what do you want your whole life to look like?—shifted her path from sports broadcasting to marketing. That moment became the foundation for a career built not on linear steps, but on bold, curious leaps.Raised by generations of strong, trailblazing women, Deb didn't just hear about possibility—she witnessed it. And today, she carries that forward with a mindset that reframes fear as fuel. Instead of asking “what if I fail,” she leans into “what if it works?”—a philosophy that has guided her biggest reinventions, from leadership roles to personal choices, including motherhood and major life moves.Her message is simple and powerful: Don't box yourself in. Let curiosity lead. Treat fear as a signal to grow, not stop. And trust yourself to move on when something no longer fits.Make "Life Choices" and other things will fall into place!This conversation is a reminder that Reinvention isn't a moment—it's a mindset.Connect with Deb:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborah-curtis-a74841/ The Shaquille O'Neal Foundation: https://www.shaqfoundation.org Newhouse School, Syracuse University: https://newhouse.syracuse.eduTHE 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!

International Women's Month Series Liz Heller is a tech and media innovator, investor, and producer whose career has bent culture for four decades. She led artist development at MCA, where she commissioned more than 500 music videos for Tom Petty, Bobby Brown, and Belinda Carlisle. She became President of Island Visual Arts, then Executive Vice President of Capitol Records at the exact moment music, audio, and the internet collided. She produced The Basketball Diaries with Leonardo DiCaprio. She executive produced the Good Will Hunting soundtrack. She built early growth engines for TOMS one-for-one, Product(RED), Microsoft, Intel, and Apple. USA Today called her the godmother of the women's cyber movement in Hollywood. She calls herself a “multi-potentialite,” a word she found after I asked her to list everything she'd done back in the earliest episodes, when I first started The Power of Re:Invention. She sat in her office in New Mexico, started writing, and came up with more than forty things. She had no idea the list was that long. I love that. What I love about this conversation is how clearly “little Liz” foreshadowed all of it. She didn't play house. She played office. She was an entrepreneur before she had the word for it. Her mother Billie was the blueprint. A true feminist. She worked on the UN doctrine for the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women and took Liz to marches at eight years old. Her father worshipped her mother and licked envelopes for her mailings. That is the household that made Liz.Her operating principle in life was and is simple and it's the whole episode. "If I am not happy doing something, I am absolutely not in the place of my best work."Some of her “tools” to live by:Try it on. Walk into the room acting like you're already the person. She used it on a woman at a top-five company agonizing over a promotion. The woman took the job.Conditions of satisfaction. Write out what would make you 85 to 90 percent happy. If what you have only hits 60, you have your answer.Voyage of discovery. Sit with your iPad for an hour and click wherever curiosity pulls you. Change your algorithm. Her feed is science, innovation, and knowledge because she made it that way. Brilliant, honestly.Her advice for women is the part you need to hear. Don't go where you're not comfortable. Build your own rooms. Build your own board of directors out of your girlfriends. Build the strategy to change it.Connect with Liz:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lizheller/ memBrain: https://www.membrainllc.com 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!

International Women's Month Series… Part 2 Chrissie Hanson is the incoming executive lead for Dentsu Media North America. As the former CEO of OMD USA, she led a team of 2,500 professionals and engineered the transformation that moved the agency from 10th to 1st in new business ranking, earning AdAge's 2025 U.S. Media Agency of the Year recognition.What I love about this conversation is how Chrissie pinpoints the exact moment everything shifted.She grew up in Hong Kong. Half Chinese, American, culturally British. Always on the outside. Never Western enough, never Asian enough. She wanted to be Secretary General of the United Nations. Her parents gave her three choices: doctor, engineer, or lawyer. She picked law because she didn't like blood and LA Law made it look glamorous!Then she graduated and realized she didn't want to be a lawyer. She sat on her mother's kitchen floor and sobbed. At 21, she thought her life was over.Looking back, she calls it the best thing that ever happened to her. That first shock built the resilience for every chapter that followed. Her advice: the earlier that shock comes, the stronger you are the next time. And there will be a next time.She sent 80 job applications. One was a tiny classified ad for a marketing communications agency. She didn't know what that meant. She got the job. And she decided to just be excellent at every single thing she did and see what happened.We talked about being a woman in a male-dominated industry. She never let it define her. She pushed through by being more prepared, more studied, more reliable. Her rule: if you make a promise to deliver something by a deadline, you keep it. Be the person someone else can rely on.Right now she's taking time to invest in herself. Peloton five days a week. Japanese lessons. Journaling. Planning trips with her family. Starting a podcast with her daughter and her sister, three generations.Her advice: be an architect of your own future. Experiment. Try the AI tools. Build something small. The longer you wait, the more fear you create.Connect with Chrissie: linkedin.com/in/chrissiehansonTHE 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!

International Women's Month SeriesOnly child. Daughter of two scientists. Now majority owner of the longest-standing multicultural advertising agency in the United States.Monique Nelson is the Executive Chair and majority owner of UWG Inc., recently named Multicultural Agency of the Year for 2026. Since acquiring UWG in 2012, she's expanded the agency into Canada and Africa and co-founded Black Week, celebrating culture, creativity, and commerce. She's been at UWG for 19 years.What I love about this conversation is how Monique traces everything back to her upbringing. Her parents were scientists who taught her that you can do just about anything as long as you have a plan. Put out a hypothesis, then plot your path.Her grandmother was an entrepreneur. West Indian. Day job plus five more. Monique spent summers with her in Houston checking on properties, learning to drywall, hang shelving, use a level. They did the hard work in the morning, then something fun after. That became her formula: eat the peas first because peas suck cold.Her path to UWG wasn't planned. She was at Motorola when everything shifted at once. Divorce. Industry disruption. And the pull to go home and be near her parents while she still could. A dinner with a friend led to an interview. She was captivated by the founder, Byron Lewis, and the mission he had built. And then the COO said the thing that changed everything: I think you could run this place.Monique did it backwards by traditional standards. Bought the business, then got married, then had kids. No regrets. Her husband knew exactly what he was getting into.On leadership, she breaks it into three modes. Leading. Bossing. Listening. And listening, she says, is where most friction comes from when it's missing.Her advice: be coachable. Ask for help. And do the hard things first so you can enjoy what comes after.P.S. Monique is one of my dearest friends. I've watched her journey for years, and I'm so proud to share her with you.Connect with Monique:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/monique-nelson-1082b9/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!

International Women's SeriesLee Evans Lee is the founder and designer of Mrs. Mama Bear, a women's fashion brand that blends performance, comfort, and modern style. Think dresses, suits, and jumpsuits made from performance fabric. Function and fashion in one. Built for women who refuse to choose between how they feel and how they look.Lee grew up on a ranch in West Texas. She was riding the fence line alone by age 10, figuring it out as she went. That's where she learned to handle fear. To move through it. To know that no matter what happened, she was going to be alright.Her path wasn't linear. Pre-med, then TV production, then healthcare. Art school at night. Sewing school. She wondered if she was a flake. Looking back, every pivot was preparing her for what came next.The idea for Mrs. Mama Bear came from her own closet. She was tired of changing clothes five times a day. She wanted function, comfort, and style in one. It didn't exist. So she started drawing.Here's the part that gave me chills. She kept it secret for a year. Didn't tell anyone. Just drew at night, let it bake. She called it sacred. No opinions, positive or negative. Just her and the work. Counterintuitive to everything we're taught. But she knew it needed time to become solid enough to face the world.Now she's partnering with the Spurs and launching a sports line. The ranch is still there. She still goes back to listen to the hummingbirds.Her advice: don't be afraid to hold your dream close while it's forming.Connect with Lee:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leeevanslee/Shop Now: http://mrsmommabear.comTHE 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!

International Women's Month SeriesAdrienne Pabst is the President of iHeartMedia's Strategic Partners Group leading a billion-dollar portfolio of the company's largest Fortune 500 advertisers. Her team partners with top marketers and agencies to create large-scale partnerships across broadcast radio, podcasting, digital, and live events. On top of that she's built and led some of iHeart's most important client relationships, helped shape the company's modern go-to-market approach and she's done it all from one company for 18 years.What I love about this conversation is what 18 years actually means. It doesn't mean standing still. It means Reinventing yourself over and over again to keep growing, keep leading, and keep earning your seat.Adrienne's first Reinvention happened at 14. She wanted to be a ballerina. Danced her whole life. Then she got a job at a dry cleaner and felt what independence actually was for the first time. Not the work itself. The paycheck. The control. That moment shifted everything.Motherhood brought another. She was climbing fast, then had her son and hit a wall. So she stepped back. Took a smaller role. Gave herself room. Most people don't talk about that kind of Reinvention. The kind where you choose less so you can show up better.Then the pandemic opened a door that never would have existed before. The national role she wanted had always been a New York job. Suddenly location didn't matter. She pitched hard. She got it.We also talked about what's changed in how we work. The expectation to respond in thirty minutes. Volume going up while quality comes down. Her fix now is simple: three priorities a week. That's it.On mentorship, most of hers have been men. She's honest about that. What she focuses on now is leading by example. Being the person people can come to without a formal meeting.And on the personal side, she's figuring it out like the rest of us. Micro conversations with friends. Two minutes just to say I love you. Calling her mom on the commute. Reinvention is rarely one big moment. It's a series of small choices that compound over time.Connect with Adrienne:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adrienne-pabst-57307624/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!

Women's History Month SeriesBeth Ann Kaminkow is CEO of Dentsu Americas and Chief Global Client Officer of Dentsu. Before that, she served as Global Chief Commerce Officer at WPP and CEO New York at VML. She was also the first female CEO at Tracy Lock in its 100-year history. Recently, she was named one of Ad Age's Leaders to Watch in 2026.What I love about this conversation is how Beth Ann talks about the "little girl version" of herself.She didn't dream of being a ballerina. Instead, she dreamed of working. She'd line up her stuffed animals and give speeches. She'd play cashier, receptionist, leader. In other words, work ethic wasn't something she learned. It was hardwired. At the same time, she was obsessed with Diane von Furstenberg and Mary Tyler Moore. To her, they represented women who owned their femininity, their confidence, and their desire to work hard. We also talked about navigating a male-dominated industry. Early on, Beth Ann recognized that business performance was the language that opened doors. So naturally, she made sure that was always part of her narrative. But here's what stuck with me. She never stopped caring about culture and people.Beyond that, she's honest that things haven't changed as much as we'd like to think. Certain themes are cyclical. Others remain ever-present.We then got into energy management. For Beth Ann, it comes down to non-negotiables. Running. Sleep. Eating well. As a result, she leaves parties early. She turns down great invitations. She has FOMO sometimes. Still, she knows herself. She can't burn the candle at both ends the way some people can. And because of that, she protects what she needs to show up for others.Her advice is clear: be a serious person if you want to be taken seriously. But at the same time, don't take yourself so seriously. That's her North Star.Finally, for women specifically, ambition is in short supply. If you feel it inside yourself, keep that flame burning. And most importantly, find the people who ignite it further.Connect with Beth Ann: https://www.linkedin.com/in/beth-ann-kaminkow-b714042/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!

International Women's Month SeriesLorey Zlotnick is the Founder and Chief Brand Officer of Zequity Marketing. Before launching her consultancy, she led brand divisions at Disney, FOX Sports, and the NFL - guiding transformations that shaped the modern media landscape.What I love about Lorey's story is that none of it was planned.She wanted to be a writer. Got a degree in fashion merchandising, minored in journalism, dreamed of writing for big fashion magazines. But life had other plans. Journalists were getting laid off in Detroit and one morning she was scraping ice off her windshield with a credit card and thought: what am I still doing here? So she moved to California knowing absolutely no one.From there, she landed at Nestle. Then the Los Angeles Times. One day she saw an ad for a job at the Disney Channel. She had no television background whatsoever. But she applied anyway. Met someone at an event who happened to run programming there. Handed him her resume. And here's the incredible part—the day she got offered the job, a rejection letter from the same company arrived in the mail.That moment launched her entire career.We talked about what it was like navigating male-dominated industries with no roadmap. Most of her bosses were men. There were no women's groups back then. No one showed her the way. But what struck me is how she learned just as much from bad leadership as good. Her reframe: that didn't feel right, but now I know what I don't want to be for other people.We also got into what pushed her to finally start her own consultancy. She realized she was sitting on decades of knowledge—from the boardroom to the locker room. And she wanted to deploy it differently. Help smaller companies and founders tell their stories the way the big brands do.Her advice is simple: evolve or die. Stay relevant. Don't be afraid to fail—because failure is what creates success. And don't leave a woman alone at the table.Connect with Lorey on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/loreyzlotnick/Learn more about Zequity Marketing https://www.zequitymarketing.com/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!

Her grade five teacher told her parents they had a dynamo on their hands. She wanted to be a backup dancer for Janet Jackson. What led her to advertising was watching Heather Locklear on Melrose Place in the 90s—she saw that powerhouse account executive and thought, I need to be her.In this conversation, Debbie talks about working in a male-dominated industry and feeling like she always had to prove her ideas with a business case while men in the room didn't. In 2016, she went back to school for an MBA because she felt she needed those credentials to get to the next level. The moment she updated her LinkedIn, she got recruited for a presidency role.She's honest about getting packaged out of a company 15 years ago. The embarrassment. The fear. And the mentor who called and said, I got you girl—you've got a job in eight weeks. That call changed the next 15 years of her career.And then she talks about this year. The breast cancer diagnosis. Being at her worst. Coming out the other side. She used to feel like she was running for 26 years straight. Now she takes 10 minutes every morning before reaching for her phone. She wakes up and says: today, something wonderful is going to happen to me.She just turned 50 in Costa Rica surrounded by 25 women from every chapter of her life. Her advice: be open, be curious, be accepting. Those three words have carried her through everything.Connect with DebbieDebbie's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/debbiebenadiba/?originalSubdomain=caTHE 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!

Hello to you women professionals listening wherever your feet touch the ground! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga. Since the beginning of time, humans have connected with each other by gathering together to share our stories. Around ancient fires, elders recited genealogies aloud while listeners traced how their own lives wove into the larger tapestry of the tribe. Creation tales, love stories, acts of heroism were passed from voice to heart, generation after generation. Some cultures believe that each time you hear a story, you arrive as a different person seeing the characters and plot line through fresh eyes. That's the quiet magic of telling personal tales: you see how far you've traveled and who you're becoming. Though many of our formal storytelling traditions have faded, they don't have to stay lost. You can reclaim that power in your family, your community, your career. Your stories matter. Your voice carries energy that no written word can fully capture. CTA: This is your invitation to discover the stories you've been living and learn to tell them effectively with the full resonance of who you are. When women share their stories, something powerful happens. Come find out what that is. Email me at info@quartermoonstoryarts.net for a no-obligation Discovery Chat. Thank you for listening. You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

International Women's Month Series:Shirley Hughes spent nearly three decades in Los Angeles building teams and brands for some of the biggest names in entertainment. Hard Rock Cafe International. Paramount Studios. Wasserman. R&CPMK, where she was Global President overseeing PR, influencer marketing, and sponsorship teams for Fortune 100 brands like Mastercard, Heineken, Microsoft, Verizon, and General Motors. She's been through seven mergers and acquisitions.And then she moved back to Fargo-Moorhead—the community where she grew up and started her career—to become a CEO.When asked about little Shirley, she laughs. She didn't play house. She didn't play nurse. She played office. Imagined herself in a cute dress with a great job. That knowing was there at six years old. She left North Dakota at 27 and didn't expect to be gone for 29 years. She also didn't expect to return. Reinvention has a way of surprising you like that.In this episode, Shirley talks about what it actually looked like to build a career in LA—walking into rooms where she didn't know anyone, figuring out where the power sat, taking jobs she wasn't fully qualified for because someone believed in her enough to give her a shot. She's honest about the moments that shaped her and the ones that challenged her.The decision to move home wasn't about slowing down. It was about alignment. She wanted to lead. She wanted to be closer to family. She wanted a chapter that felt like hers. When the opportunity came, she took it—and brought her husband along for the ride.She calls it one of the best decisions she's ever made.Connect with ShirleyShirley's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shirley-richter-hughes/Visit Fargo-Moorhead: https://www.fargomoorhead.org/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!

Pastor Zach Vestnys' teaching titled "What Are You Waiting For?"Teaching Text: Daniel 10
Pastor Zach Vestnys' teaching titled "What Are You Waiting For?"Teaching Text: Daniel 10
What does it take to turn around a beloved brand during a "retail apocalypse" AND a global pandemic? Sharon Price John, President and CEO of Build-A-Bear Workshop, did exactly that—leading the company to five consecutive years of record results while staying true to its mission of "adding a little more heart to life."In this episode, I speak with Sharon Price John, who's spent over 30 years shaping iconic brands—from Barbie and Transformers at Mattel and Hasbro to Stride Rite footwear, and now Build-A-Bear. Since 2013, Sharon has completely reinvented Build-A-Bear's business model, expanding beyond malls, scaling e-commerce, entering entertainment, and growing the consumer base so that 40% of sales now come from teens and adults.Here's the fascinating part: Sharon spent years underestimating herself. She worked McDonald's drive-throughs, Lee Jeans night shifts, flower shops—and kept thinking she was about to hit the wall. High school was easy, so college would be where she'd fail. College was fine, so her first job would be it. Got her MBA at Columbia thinking, "This is where it ends." It never did. She finally realized she'd been shooting too low the entire time.When Sharon joined Build-A-Bear, the brand had mid-90s awareness but was struggling. She saw the equity was trapped—stuck in malls, stuck targeting only kids. Her vision? Transform it from a mall retailer into a branded IP company with multiple revenue streams. Then COVID hit. They shut down 100% of stores in 48 hours. But Sharon's team pivoted fast, moved with imperfect information, and came out strong.How to Reinvent Like Sharon:You're not supposed to know everything about the next step—that's the point. If you knew everything, it wouldn't be growth. Embrace not knowing.Stop catastrophizing—what's the actual worst that can happen? Sharon was terrified to move to New York. Worst case? She'd come back exactly where she was. Do this exercise every time.The stories you tell yourself are usually wrong. Stop carrying disempowering baggage from past "failures" that probably aren't even based in reality.Learn how your entire company makes money. Be curious. Visit every department. When you understand the interconnections, you can connect dots others miss.When you're young, you're recoverable. Taking risks early is strategic. Stop letting fear keep you from trying.Build trust before you need it. Sharon's team could pivot during COVID because they'd already built credibility through years of solid strategy.Connect with Sharon: Find Build-A-Bear at buildabear.comRead "Stories & Heart" on Amazon at https://a.co/d/3qSQcnKConnect with Sharon on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/sharon-price-john-26239820THE 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!

Ooh-wah-ah-ah-ah!!! This week we head into the Eye Of The Storm as we review and rank Immortalized, the riotous sixth studio album from Disturbed! After an indefinite hiatus in the early 2010s the band roared back onto the scene with this surprise record in 2015, featuring iconic moments like The Vengeful One, the ballad-adjacent The Light, and an unforgettable cover of The Sound Of Silence. Sucker punch hooks and powerful vocals keep the album moving, but did the band play it too safe by sticking to their tried-and-true formula?Connor first recommended Disturbed's Evolution to James half a decade ago. It was a solid record, but scored low on his ranking list. In the Year Of Redemption, Connor's hoping a more lively record can Fire It Up and recalibrate James' opinions. We'll talk about the band's rise to greatness, David Draiman's decision to walk from a six-figure salary, and learn about the secret reunion that led to Immortalized! The Mixtaper is brewing up facts about a wrestling wife, defenestration, and a four-year follicular fakeout. Can Disturbed Open Our Eyes or have we Saved Our Last Goodbye for the latest of Connor's picks?Have you ever been to Oconomowoc, WI? Did we even get close to saying that one right? Did you recognize that gurgly sound? Let us know in the comments or on social media!

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Dylan Johnston Acts 22:12-16 12 “A man named Ananias came to see me. He was a devout observer of the law and highly respected by all the Jews living there. 13 He stood beside me and said, ‘Brother Saul, receive your sight!' And at that very moment I was able to see him. 14 “Then he said: ‘The God of our ancestors has chosen you to know his will and to see the Righteous One and to hear words from his mouth. 15 You will be his witness to all people of what you have seen and heard. 16 And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away,calling on his name.'" 1. JESUS CAN INTERRUPT YOUR LIFE AT ANY TIME “About noon as I came near Damascus, suddenly a bright light from heaven flashed around me. 7 I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, ‘Saul! Saul! Why do you persecute me?' 8 “‘Who are you, Lord?' I asked. “ ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting,' he replied." Acts 22:6–9 2. GOD HAS A PURPOSE FOR YOU — NOW 10 “‘What shall I do, Lord?' I asked. “ ‘Get up,' the Lord said, ‘and go into Damascus. There you will be told all that you have been assigned to do.'" Acts 22:10–15 3. STOP DELAYING — START FOLLOWING “What are you waiting for? Get up. Be baptized. Wash your sins away. Call on His name.” Acts 22:16

The urgency of the hour is here. In this moving Christmas message, we explore why the birth of Jesus is more than just a beautiful tradition or a "cheesy movie" plot—it is a historically significant event that changed the timeline of humanity.Drawing from his recent ministry trip to Abu Dhabi, Pastor David shares how the global church is on the move and challenges us to move from complacency to "front-footed waiting." Looking at the life of Simeon in Luke 2, we see what it means to live in eager anticipation of the Redeemer who brings forgiveness, adoption, and a true inheritance.In this sermon, you will learn:Why the international calendar (AD) centers on one specific life.How the "silence of God" for 400 years ended in a stable.What it means to call God "Abba" (Father).How to find hope in Jesus rather than politics or career.Be sure to follow 614 Church online:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/614_church/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/614church/Website: https://www.614church.orgTo support our ministry, https://614church.org/give/To fill out a contact card so we can stay in touch, click the link below!https://614.churchcenter.com/people/forms/283193Until Everyone Knows Jesus.0:00 – The "Man Cold" and the Power of Unity1:42 – Lessons from Abu Dhabi: Faith in a Muslim Nation5:15 – The Global Church: God is on the Move9:15 – More Than a Story: The Urgency of the Hour11:20 – 2025 AD: Why Jesus is Ground Zero for History14:38 – The Man Who Was Ready: Simeon's Patient Waiting19:42 – The Consolation of Israel: Beauty After 400 Years of Silence24:35 – Abba Father: From Slaves to Sons and Daughters28:56 – What Are You Waiting For?

What if the kid making Super 8 movies in his backyard grew up to shape some of the world's most iconic brands?In this episode, I sit down with Joe Lawson, Head of Brand Licensing at Calm, whose career spans The Simpsons, Stranger Things, Angry Birds, Shrek, Netflix—and now wellness.Joe knew at age five he wanted to make films. While chasing that dream, he took the scenic route—turning a temp job at Fox into 12 years leading licensing for The Simpsons, building unforgettable brand experiences, and producing his own feature film along the way.His journey is filled with missed jobs, failed projects, and big “no's”—but every rejection redirected him to something bigger.Now at Calm, Joe is using everything he's learned to build products that truly touch people's lives—while keeping his filmmaker dream alive.

Ever wonder what it takes to walk away from a successful career and start over from scratch? Adam Drucker went from IT executive to dishwasher, then built something extraordinary.In this episode, I speak with Adam Drucker, founder of Doctor Dough. His Reinvention story is great. After a thriving career in IT, Adam walked away from the keyboard in 2010 to start over as a dishwasher at Paradise Cove. He worked his way up into management, landed at Border Grill with celebrity chefs Susan Feniger and Mary Sue Milliken managing their food truck business, then launched his own restaurant, Big Mango Cafe, which expanded to two locations before he exited just ahead of COVID. The pizza he makes now is phenomenal. I've tasted it myself, and it's the real deal.From Takeout to Doctor DoughAdam grew up in a household where his mom, bless her heart, couldn't cook. He tells this hilarious story about coming back from college breaks and hearing all his friends rave about their mom's cooking, while all Adam wanted was takeout. Those sleepovers at friends' houses showed young Adam there was a whole world of flavor out there. It planted a seed. During lockdown, with zero interest in splurging on a backyard pizza oven, Adam set out to create truly great pizza dough for a standard home oven. His wife Rita—who is one of my favorite humans—said, "Hey, maybe other people would want this." What began as a quest for the perfect crust became Doctor Dough. Today he's curing the world's pizza ills through dough sales, private catering, pop-ups, and markets.What You Can LearnHere's what you can take from Adam's story: Start where you are. Adam started as a dishwasher without culinary school. If you've got an idea that won't leave you alone, lean into it. He spent nearly two years perfecting his dough recipe because he believed in what he was creating. Take the leap even when you're terrified—Adam still asks Rita, "Is this right?" There's fear and uncertainty, but he feels fulfilled, and that matters. Involve the people you love. Adam talks about pizza-making as a family activity, flour everywhere, creating memories that matter. That's what Reinvention is really about.The Doctor Will See You Now Ready to cure your pizza cravings?

Jennifer Principe is a stylist, author, speaker, and founder whose work blends fashion, faith, and emotional healing. After spending 14 years as a celebrity wardrobe stylist, she felt called to create something more meaningful — a space where style becomes a pathway back to confidence, dignity, and self-worth. She is the author of A Common Thread, a spiritually rooted memoir that explores clothing as a tool for inner transformation, and the founder of The Phoenix Effect, a nonprofit offering full styling, hair, makeup, and photography experiences for individuals facing life-debilitating illnesses. Her work has been featured on KTLA, BBC, Inside Edition, and across major outlets for its impact and heart.Before you listen to this episode, I want to share something with you: finding your purpose rarely appears as a straight, clear path. Sometimes it unfolds slowly, in detours and seasons we don't fully understand at the time. When Jennifer told me she worked thirty different jobs before realizing what she was meant to do, it struck me in the best possible way. It's a reminder that the things we're drawn to — the small nudges, the recurring interests, the quiet whispers — aren't random. They're direction. In this conversation, Jennifer opens up about her journey from a difficult childhood to a thriving styling career, and how she ultimately discovered the deeper calling beneath it.Jennifer shares the moment she first learned about “enclothed cognition,” the idea that what we wear can shift how we feel and how we move through the world. It's something she intuitively understood as a little girl seeking peace and play in the back of her grandmother's gift shop. And then there's the moment that changed everything: she's out on a run, overwhelmed by life transitions, when she feels an unmistakable inner pull telling her to stop and give her gift away. She listens. She makes one phone call from the side of the road. That call becomes the beginning of The Phoenix Effect, a nonprofit that has helped countless individuals see themselves again with warmth, strength, and hope.Today, Jennifer has stepped away from her 14-year styling career to fully embrace this mission. When I asked her about fear, she told me she's more afraid of never reaching her full potential than she is of stumbling along the way. There's something incredibly grounding about that. Her book, A Common Thread, captures her journey beautifully — blending storytelling, faith, healing, and practical tools to help you reconnect with who you are at your core. If you've been waiting for a sign, waiting for clarity, waiting to feel ready… let this episode be the moment that encourages your next step. You deserve what's on the other side.Shop A Common Thread (Amazon/Barnes & Noble)Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Common-Thread-Fashion-Soul-Book/dp/B09YL79827Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/a-common-thread-jennifer-principe/1141622278?ean=2940166550262Jennifer's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jenprincipestyles/?hl=enAll of Jennifer's Links! https://linktr.ee/jenprincipestylesTHE 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!
