What happens when the world keeps drifting… and someone refuses to move? On this intense and timely episode of Like It Matters Radio, Mr. Black confronts the growing decay and confusion we see in our cities, our homes, and especially in our men. This episode makes one thing clear: the breakdown in leadership didn’t happen all at once—it happened inch by inch. Through powerful metaphors like the Camel’s Nose in the Tent, the Boiling Frog, and the slow pull of cultural drift, Mr. Black exposes how small compromises quietly erode identity, conviction, and courage over time. What begins as “just a little change” becomes a complete loss of direction. At the heart of the episode is a gripping spoken-word message, “The One Who Would Not Be Moved,” built around a defining leadership truth: when you know who you are, why you are here, and WHOSE you are, you become unmovable—even when everything around you is shifting. This episode weaves together leadership principles, social learning theory, neuroscience, and biblical truth to explain not only how things have gone wrong—but how they can be made right. Mr. Black challenges listeners to see themselves honestly: we are both part of the problem and part of the solution. The choice is unavoidable:Drift or anchor.Run or fight.Disappear—or stand. A warrior in a wheelchair isn’t defined by strength, speed, or position, but by conviction. In a culture sliding toward chaos, the leaders who refuse to move are the ones who help others stand. This is an Hour of Power for those who feel the pressure, recognize the drift, and know it’s time to reclaim identity, draw a line, and lead with purpose. Because if not you—then who?If not now—then when? Inspiration. Education. Application.When you live your life like it matters… it does.

What if a craft could buy back your freedom? Sitting down at the Abilities Expo in Dallas, we meet Jamie Carlson, who turned the hardest parts of living with cerebral palsy into a bold, practical plan. She tells of years of painful surgeries and a tough shift to full-time wheelchair life. The grind was constant, the energy tax relentless. So she looked for a lever she could actually pull.Quilting became that lever. A cousin nudged her to sew, and the hum of a machine became both therapy and momentum. Jamie set up a 10-foot frame, shared her process on TikTok, and invited people across the country to send their quilt tops. Every stitch was a promise: you pay the quilting fee into a Hope Help Live fundraiser, and we get one step closer to a wheelchair-accessible van. Unlike one-off fundraisers, this platform stays open, recognizing that disability costs don't end—they evolve.The result is life-changing: a Chrysler Pacifica she can roll into without breaking down her chair, her body, or her day. We dig into the real barriers—housing that doesn't fit, vehicles that don't welcome, time lost to logistics—and the practical solutions that restore control. Along the way, we talk about the power of music and sports to anchor joy, from Chris Stapleton singalongs to game-day rituals that make hard weeks feel lighter. Jamie's message lands with force: don't give up. Find one small light, keep moving toward it, and let community amplify your effort.If this story moved you, share it with a friend who needs hope, hit follow so you never miss a conversation like this, and leave a review with the skill you'd use to change your world.

A family tragedy in Alaska is leaving a community searching for answers after a man admits to shooting his grandmother as she sat in her wheelchair inside their Fairbanks home. After a winter storm, many drivers scrape just enough snow off their windshield to get moving--but what they leave behind can still get them in traffic trouble.

We talk about: ✨ Her life and fitness journey before the accident ✨ The day everything changed ✨ The emotional and physical battles she faced ✨ Rebuilding her identity ✨ Discovering adaptive bodybuilding ✨ Becoming an IFBB Pro ✨ The mindset required to rise again Sharla is proof that strength isn't about what happens to you— it's about how you rise.
