“Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything you do. Try to please them all the time, not just when they are watching you. Serve them sincerely because of your reverent fear of the Lord. Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and that the Master you are serving is Christ. But if you do what is wrong, you will be paid back for the wrong you have done. For God has no favorites.”- Colossians 3:22-25 NLT

ALC Recommends: “God Owns My Business” by Stanley Tam“Bondservants, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not by way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord.

For the wrongdoer will be paid back for the wrong he has done, and there is no partiality.”- Colossians 3:22-25 ESV

At the center of our market economy sits an institution that runs more like a dictatorship. The firm you work for writes the rules and enforces them. There is no vote, no appeal, and no constitution. The only real remedy is to leave.University of Michigan philosopher Elizabeth Anderson, author of "Private Government" and "Hijacked: How Neoliberalism Turned the Work Ethic Against Workers," argues we spent centuries building limits on rulers who held this much power over people's daily lives, and built almost nothing for the place where most of that life is actually spent.

Ordained minister, Dr. Dennis Hall, uses Labor Day to focus on the enormous achievement by American workers in building the Twin Towers – The World Trade Center. He then describes the massive cleanup that was necessary after Al Qaeda affiliated terrorists flew passenger jets into the Twin Towers causing them to collapse in less than 120 minutes. The massive cleanup is also described pointing that out that more than 91,000 people, including firefighters, police officers, city employees, federal workers, contractors and volunteers were involved and in less than a year this toxic pile of rubble was cleared – another great achievement of American workers. Dr. Hall then describes the deterioration of the American workforce that has resulted in massive vacancies among tradespeople. He suggests that this is reflection of the deterioration of the Protestant work ethic and the development of entitlement attitudes. Dr. Hall concludes this podcast suggesting that the growing problems in the American workforce can be overcome by returning to the Protestant work ethic.

Laquan Rouse grew up in New Jersey associating with gang members without ever joining, was a star athlete who had every reason to believe sports would define his future — until he got shot three times his senior year of high school and had to decide who he was actually going to become. He straightened his life out and became a New Jersey correctional officer, spending three years working the floor inside Trenton State Prison and other New Jersey facilities where he earned respect from inmates, witnessed corrupt guards, and accumulated funny stories and hard truths. Then he walked away voluntarily — and is now sharing why. _____________________________________________ #CorrectionalOfficer #PrisonGuard #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #NewJersey _____________________________________________ Thank you to FACTOR for sponsoring this episode: Head to https://factormeals.com/lockedin50off and use code lockedin50off to get 50 percent off and 1 free breakfast item per box for 1 year, while supplies last until 10/31/2026. _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Crazy Smuggling Story 00:14 Meet Laquan Roose 00:37 Growing Up in Jersey City 01:13 Family and Upbringing 02:00 Only One in Law Enforcement 02:35 Views on Cops as a Kid 03:04 High School Troubles 04:36 Switching Schools 05:01 Family in Education 05:26 Why Getting Into Trouble? 06:00 Dad's Work Ethic 07:19 Struggle vs. Discipline 08:00 Getting Shot 08:51 Gang or Personal Beef? 10:49 Out at 2 AM 12:18 The Shooting Details 14:30 Hospital and Family 15:27 The Pursuit Continues 16:36 Getting Help 17:33 Wanting Revenge 19:45 Cops Investigate 20:17 Leaving the Hospital 22:03 No Retaliation 23:33 Parents Want Cooperation 24:18 Back to School and Football 27:46 Normal for the City? 28:50 Block Culture 29:18 Family Gang Involvement 29:48 Avoiding Gangs 31:03 Junior College 31:57 Impact of Environment 32:14 Protecting Younger Brother 34:01 Fixing the Community 35:13 Sponsor: Factor 36:52 After Junior College 37:27 Getting into Corrections 39:05 The Pay 39:38 Family Reaction 40:52 The Academy 42:14 Training Scenarios 44:04 Fighting Training 44:19 Dropout Rate 44:48 First Prison Experience 46:00 Super Cops 46:47 Street Guys Turned COs 47:08 Being a Chill Cop 47:25 Trenton State Prison 48:28 First Witnessed Events 49:24 Keeping Things Under Wraps 50:21 Nothing to Lose 52:55 Earning Respect 55:50 Transfer to Rahway 56:11 Past Follows You 56:55 Friend Serving 75 Years 58:39 How Other Officers Treated Him 01:00:13 Corruption Among Officers 01:01:21 Fetty Wap Situation 01:03:41 Young Officers and Old Heads 01:04:07 Respected Inmate: Snowball 01:05:52 Handling Snitches 01:08:00 Craziest Check-In 01:10:58 K2 and Its Effects 01:15:41 Cell Searches 01:17:07 Strangest Things in Cells 01:19:35 Cell Phones in Prison 01:20:42 Food and Contraband 01:23:48 Officer Downtime 01:25:36 Cell Assignments 01:26:34 Shift Differences 01:27:36 Control Over Inmates 01:29:08 Sex Offenders 01:31:19 Worst Part of the Job 01:32:30 Squat and Cough 01:33:51 Female Officers Hookups 01:35:11 Max B Encounter 01:35:21 Expecting a Long Career 01:35:48 Why He Left 01:42:48 Life After Resigning 01:43:43 What He Does Now 01:44:42 Misconceptions About Prisons 01:46:04 Why Experience Both Worlds? 01:48:00 Final Thoughts _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka

Welcome to the first episode of “Save Me a Spot at the Supra” on Heavy Things Lightly where John Heers hosts singer and Broadway performer Carrie Manolakos (best known for her performances in Mama Mia! and Wicked) at his restaurant after she attended a Supra, discussing how the tradition builds community, the role of the tamada, and ways to bring more music into American Supras. Carrie reflects on her early discovery as a vocalist, her training in the Syracuse Children's Chorus, performing professionally as a child, and later learning to belt and pursuing powerful roles. She describes major hardships beginning around 2014, and how COVID brought stillness, but also industry pressures she refused, leading her to step away, stay quiet, and later face public backlash after speaking openly, including support for RFK Jr. She shares how pain, a dental injury, and her film “Metanoia” coincided with returning to Orthodoxy, deepening her faith and art, and closes with a toast about eye-to-eye connection, grace, and unity.Chapters00:00 Welcome to the Supra02:43 Meet Carrie Manolakos04:05 First Impressions of Supra07:37 Tamada and Table Magic08:56 Why We Sing Together15:00 Getting Americans to Sing21:15 Why You Must Go22:35 Famous Guests Wish List25:40 Carries Early Talent26:50 Training and First Gigs30:41 Work Ethic and Athletics32:19 New York Pull in Her 20s32:50 Losing Innocence33:27 Building a Belt36:01 Scarcity and Worth37:26 Faith Roots and Drift39:48 2014 Breaking Point41:43 Alone Through Crisis45:22 Defining Diva Needs51:54 Wicked Standby Chaos53:19 COVID Career Exit55:59 Intuition and Refusal58:40 Hiding and Backlash01:07:00 Nashville Reset Plan01:10:00 Reading Scripture Again01:11:50 Art Led to Faith01:12:06 Going Rogue in Nashville01:15:50 Injury and Metanoia01:19:56 Sermon Hits Home01:23:37 Learning as a Convert01:26:29 Speaking Out and Backlash01:30:05 Floods and Guardianship01:33:57 Politics as Religion01:37:42 Writing America Song01:39:27 Dealbreakers and Values01:41:15 Art and Human Commonality01:42:57 Ala Verde Toast01:49:41 Final Blessing and Outro__

Leverage Your Incredible Factor Business Podcast with Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, MBA
This is the 4th part of the Hidden Taxes That Are Costing Your Millions Series This episode is powered by The Ascension Archetype Quiz. " You are trying to earn a feeling that was always meant to be received, not achieved."— Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon Your work ethic might be one of the most expensive things about you. I know that sounds ridiculous when working hard is probably how you got here. It earned you the degrees, built the reputation, grew the business and helped you become the person everyone describes as driven. But somewhere between proving you could make it and building the success you prayed for, hard work can quietly become something else. You stop working because the work requires it and start working because you require it to feel worthy. And once your identity needs you to stay productive, busy and exhausted to feel valuable, hustle stops being a strategy and becomes an addiction. That's when the thing you've been praised for your entire life starts sending you a bill. Welcome to The Hustle Tax.If you're the hardest-working person you know, that may not be the flex you think it is. You can have an incredible work ethic, build a successful business, cross seven figures and still be running on the deeply ingrained belief that you haven't done enough to be enough. In part four of the Hidden Taxes Series, we're auditing The Hustle Tax, the invisible cost of confusing productivity with worthiness and exhaustion with effectiveness. We're getting into hustle culture, entrepreneur burnout, workaholism, CEO productivity, rest guilt, high-achiever identity and why working more hours can actually produce diminishing returns. But this conversation goes deeper than your calendar. Because if your business gets your best while your body, relationships and life get your leftovers, you don't need another productivity hack. You need to confront why stopping feels so dangerous in the first place. Here’s the truth: hustle isn't the price of success. It's what happens when achievement becomes your attempt to finally feel like enough, and no accomplishment can pay that bill. You’ll walk away with an understanding the critical difference between aligned work and compulsive hustle, including the four signs that reveal when you've fused your worth to your output. You'll learn the real-time question that can expose whether your action is being driven by the task or by anxiety, and the three shifts that move you from hustle to high-leverage action: divorcing your worth from your output, trading effort for leverage and making rest a discipline instead of a reward. Most importantly, you'll understand why grace and ease do not mean doing nothing. They mean doing the work without requiring the work to prove you deserve the life you're building. Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook, a pen and your favorite beverage and listen in to discover: ✔ How to tell the difference between aligned, productive action that grows your business and hustle that's actually attempting to soothe the fear that you haven't done enough✔ How to recognize the four signs that your worth has become fused with your productivity✔ How to trade effort for leverage and make rest part of your wealth strategy✔And so much more This episode is a call to stop treating exhaustion like evidence of ambition. Your work ethic is not the problem. The belief that you must keep earning your worth through it is. This is your invitation to separate what you do from who you are. Because if rest makes you question your value, you're not just working hard anymore.

Sasha Sweets grew up in California as a natural hustler — selling candy before moving to drugs, working at a strip club, and always chasing the finer things in life while her father was in prison for part of her childhood — before getting into a scamming operation with the father of her child in her early twenties that produced a federal indictment, 3.5 years in federal prison across California, Kentucky, and Arizona, and over $2 million in restitution. _____________________________________________ #crimenews #prisonstory #truecrimestories #scam _____________________________________________ Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

Why does relaxing feel so hard? Why does sitting on the couch for 20 minutes feel like a moral failure? We break down the guilt of "unfinished" downtime, the pressure to turn every hobby into a side hustle, and why rest isn't something you have to earn. Plus, a listener question on feeling worthy that isn't tied to what you can do for others. We also share some workout recs that came in for Amy's weightlifting journey, plus a voicemail from a listener who wants Kat to know just how powerful (and even euphoric) an unmedicated birth experience can be, straight from someone who's done it twice.

I share why my parents' nudge into the liquor store worked and why I'm leaving an uncomfortable amount of money on the table on purpose.

Hey there Voices of the Bench community, this is Trish Jones with Ivoclar. If you've been curious about fast-firing zirconia to improve efficiency but aren't convinced it can deliver predictable, high-quality results, I'd encourage you to connect with us. Our new IPS Emax Zirconia offers multiple fast-fire protocols designed to help save you valuable production time while maintaining consistent results. Time is money in every lab. Don't wait. Reach out to your local Ivoclar rep today and discover how IPS Emax Zirconia can help streamline your workflow. As full-arch dentistry continues to grow, so do the demands on today's dental laboratories. That's why Knight Dental recently launched SimplyARCH Studio, a dedicated production environment built exclusively for full-arch restorations. To support this specialized workflow, Knight invested in an XTCERA milling system and carefully evaluated multiple CAM software solutions before choosing hyperDENT. The decision came down to exceptional milling quality, minimal hand finishing, and impressive production efficiency. But what truly set hyperDENT apart was the implementation process. From the very beginning, the team provided more than software training—they shared the knowledge and experience needed to build an optimized workflow for complex full-arch cases. With proven expertise in advanced milling strategies and laboratory production, hyperDENT helped ensure SimplyARCH Studio was designed for long-term success from day one.Matt Everatt joins Elvis and Barb for a fascinating conversation that takes a deep dive into his journey through the dental laboratory industry and the story behind his book, The Invisible Profession. From discovering dental technology at 16 and specializing in maxillofacial prosthetics and orthodontics to working in hospitals, developing early sleep-apnea appliances, and nearly leaving the profession altogether, Matt's career has taken some seriously interesting turns. Eventually, he helped co-found S4S, building a successful business around sleep-apnea appliances, occlusal splints, orthodontics, and more before eventually stepping away from ownership. This week on Voices From the Bench, we finally sit down with someone we've been wanting to have on the show for a LONG time—Philip Gold! Philip grew up in the dental laboratory, quite literally pulling teeth out of formaldehyde bottles in his father Raymond Gold's lab in Atlanta. His father started the laboratory in 1946, and Philip eventually found himself following in those footsteps, although not without first taking a seven-year detour working for Williams Gold. That experience gave him the opportunity to visit laboratories all over the country, learn from some of the best in the industry, and see firsthand how different labs operated. Philip eventually returned to the family laboratory in 1980 and began the process of taking over from his father. What followed was a career built around learning, adapting, building teams, and—most importantly—relationships. Philip shares what it was like stepping into a leadership role at a young age, earning the respect of experienced technicians, and learning that being a leader isn't about knowing everything yourself, but understanding the work well enough to help the people around you succeed. He also talks about selling the laboratory to National Dentex with the goal of giving the business and its people an opportunity to continue growing, only to eventually find his way back into the laboratory world with By Design Dental Studio alongside his daughter Katie and Denise. And if you know Philip, you know he's never stopped learning. He currently holds six CDT certifications, including ceramics, crown and bridge, partials, implants, dentures, and digital. His story about preparing for the digital practical exam is a perfect example of his determination—his first practice run took seven and a half hours for an exam designed to be completed in just over five. So he reorganized, practiced again, changed his workflow, and eventually got it down to under five hours. And of course, Philip isn't pursuing certifications just for himself. He wants to set an example, motivate the next generation of technicians, and encourage more people in the laboratory to continue learning. We also get into the importance of customer service, why relationships are at the heart of this industry, and why sometimes the best thing a laboratory can do is simply pick up the phone and help. Philip shares his philosophy that when something goes wrong, you drop everything and make it right. We talk about giving back to the industry, the people who helped shape Philip's career, and how the dental laboratory community has always been willing to share knowledge when you're willing to ask. And yes… somewhere along the way we also hear the greatest “okey-doke” story in dental laboratory history. Special Guest: Phillip Gold.

Frank LaRosa says the problem with young financial advisors is not work ethic, it is training. Frank opens with a story about a young advisor he has been mentoring, a twenty-three-year-old working on the asset management side at a wirehouse who was outperforming his targets but getting dinged for small administrative mistakes. Frank explains the advice he gave him and why building your own book of business might be the harder but more rewarding path compared to joining an established team. Stacey widens the conversation into something bigger, the age gap opening up in the industry between advisors in their late fifties and sixties and the wave of twenty-three to thirty-year-olds coming in behind them, with almost nobody in the middle. Frank frames it as a barbell problem, pointing out the gap in the middle where mid-career advisors should be and explains why it is creating real opportunity for young advisors, even if most of them do not fully realize it yet. Frank does not soften his opinion on where the real failure sits. He argues that big firms preach hard work while their own people clock out at five and that most of the industry has quietly abandoned the old school training programs that actually produced successful advisors. He breaks down what real training used to look like, why cold calling still works and why rushing new advisors toward designations like the CFP before they understand the business is a mistake he has watched play out for years. The episode wraps with a direct challenge to firm owners and independent practitioners. If you are bringing young people into this business, you owe them a real system and enough time to succeed, not just a desk and a quota. Questions answered in this episode include: Should a young financial advisor join a team or build their own book of business? What is the age gap problem happening in the financial advisor industry right now? What is the barbell approach and why does it matter for advisor recruiting? Why do old school training programs work better than what most firms offer today? What mistakes do firms make when training young financial advisors? How many cold calls should a trainee financial advisor be making every day? Why is it a mistake to push new advisors toward designations like the CFP too early?
