Each week, I will release an affirmation of the week to help you to continue to MOVE your business toward the million-dollar mark.  Affirmations are supplied by our Move to Millions Million Dollar CEO Affirmation Cards available at www.movetomillionsmerch.com  "I am fully aware of my value and the exceptional impact I bring to the marketplace, and I do not seek external validation to affirm my worth. My confidence comes from within, grounded in my expertise, experience, and the results I consistently deliver. I trust in my abilities and the unique offerings I provide, knowing that my success is a reflection of my dedication and excellence. I stand strong in my purpose, leading with authenticity and conviction, and I attract opportunities and clients who recognize and appreciate my true value. I am enough as I am, and my value shines through in everything I do, independent of external approval or recognition." In this week's full episode, I spill the beans on why after two years on the “coveted” Inc.5000 list of fastest growing companies in the US, I chose not to apply for the 3rd year. The details of why are kinda juicy and for me it's bigger than that.  It's about my theme for the year, Anchored Ascension. My purpose wasn't to dissuade anyone from seeking the recognition the list provides, but instead to educate so that you can make a well informed decision if and when you meet the criteria.     Affirm with me: "I am fully aware of my value and the exceptional impact I bring to the marketplace, and I do not seek external validation to affirm my worth. My confidence comes from within, grounded in my expertise, experience, and the results I consistently deliver.

When nothing seems to be working despite all your effort, the secret may not be doing more, it may be letting go. Discover how loosening your grip allows space for guidance, clarity, and miracles to flow in. Sometimes life throws us into seasons where no matter how much effort we put in, nothing seems to move forward. I've been there, and recently I had to remind myself of the power of letting go. Clinging tightly can feel like control, but it often keeps us from receiving the answers and blessings we need. In this episode, I share tools and perspectives that helped me loosen my grip and trust that life is unfolding exactly as it should. Action Plan: - Notice where you're gripping too tightly: Pay attention to areas in your life where you feel white-knuckled and overly controlling. - Try visualization tools: Use a balloon or shelf visualization to release what isn't yours to control. - Create a trust archive: Write down past experiences where letting go brought the outcome you needed. - Practice physical release: Open your hands, breathe deeply, and affirm “I release this. It is handled.” - Journal for clarity: Ask yourself what you're still trying to control and what it would feel like to trust deeply right now. More from Megan YouTube | Website |  Instagram

On August 11, President Donald Trump issued a memorandum mobilizing the District of Columbia National Guard to Washington, D.C. and an executive order placing the city's police department under federal control. Approximately 800 D.C. National Guard troops were deployed to the city after the announcements. The president said he intended to restore public safety in the capital because the local government had “lost control” of crime. Trump also suggested that he would consider similar actions in other U.S. cities.

"I envision Horn Lake being the hub of North Mississippi when it comes to animal welfare. I want my animal shelter to be the place that people model their strategies after.” This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund and the Rescue Cleaners and Disinfectants. In this episode, host Stacy LeBaron sits down with Glen Andrews, Director of the Horn Lake Animal Shelter in North Mississippi. With over two decades in animal welfare and experience in virtually every shelter role imaginable—from event coordinator to veterinary assistant to director—Glen brings a unique "Renaissance rescuer" perspective to municipal animal services. His journey from Manhattan's urban animal control to rural Mississippi's challenges offers valuable insights into adapting shelter practices across different regional cultures and community needs. Glen shares how he transformed a small, antiquated municipal shelter into a thriving no-kill facility while simultaneously doubling intake numbers. The conversation covers his innovative approaches to community engagement, including low-cost spay/neuter programs, pet food pantries, youth volunteer corps, and strategic community cat management. Glen discusses the importance of removing the enforcement stigma from municipal shelters and positioning them as community resources that help people keep their pets rather than judging pet owners in crisis. Whether you're working in a large urban shelter or a small rural facility, this episode provides actionable strategies for building community trust, implementing sustainable programs with limited resources, and achieving life-saving outcomes. Glen's emphasis on understanding local demographics, strategic partnerships, and the power of microchipping offers a roadmap for municipal shelters looking to modernize their approach and better serve both animals and the people who care about them. Press play now for: How Glen's diverse shelter experience prepared him to lead comprehensive reform at a small municipal facility The cultural differences in pet ownership between urban North and rural South, and how to adapt programming accordingly Strategies for removing the enforcement stigma from municipal shelters and building community trust Details on Horn Lake's innovative programs: low-cost spay/neuter, pet food pantry, and youth volunteer corps Glen's data-driven approach to community cats and achieving 100% more TNR surgeries than neighboring areas How to achieve no-kill status while doubling intake through strategic partnerships and enhanced marketing The game-changing impact of mandatory microchipping and achieving 20% above national average for return-to-owner rates Glen's vision for microchipping every animal in Horn Lake and creating a model for other communities Practical advice for small municipal shelters on accessing grants and proving community need The importance of municipal leadership support and how to work within government structures Resources mentioned: Horn Lake Animal Shelter Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/HornLakeAnimalShelter/) Horn Lake Animal Shelter website (https://www.hornlake.org/departments/AnimalShelter) Horn Lake Animal Shelter phone: (662) 393-5857 Horn Lake Animal Shelter Petfinder page (https://www.petfinder.com/member/us/ms/horn-lake/friends-of-horn-lake-animal-shelter-ms71/) Maddie's Fund website (https://www.maddiesfund.org/) Maddie's Pet Forum (https://forum.maddiesfund.org/home) Maddie's University education courses (https://university.maddiesfund.org/) Best Friends Animal Society website (https://bestfriends.org/) Community Cats Podcast website (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/) Maddie's Fund grant programs (https://www.maddiesfund.org/) Sponsor Links: Maddie's Fund (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/maddies623) Rescue Cleaners and Disinfectants (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/virox) Follow & Review We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

A few years ago, I wrote about my experience of reading, and then watching, The Buccaneers. At that point, the only TV version of The Buccaneers was from the 90s and starred Carla Gugino, along with Mira Sorvino, Greg Wise, Connie Booth and Elizabeth Ashley. Recently, I've been getting quite a few views on this Buccaneers post and I suspect it is due to the release of the second season of the new Buccaneers TV series. This made me curious about this new version and when it became available on a platform I had access to, I watched the first season.

On Friday, President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin met face-to-face for the first time in Trump's second term at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, Alaska, to discuss the future of the war in Ukraine. While Trump described the meeting as “productive,” he shared minimal details from the discussions, and the White House has not announced any new agreements. Ukraine was not part of the discussions; Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will meet with Trump in Washington, D.C., on Monday.

What if alignment means disappointing others — but coming home to yourself? This episode explores the quiet courage of letting go, and why freedom requires releasing who you've been to become who you are.You've been the steady one. The reliable one. The one others count on.But lately, holding it all together feels heavier than it used to.This episode is for the high-capacity human silently asking:What do I do when what once fit… no longer does?In today's conversation, we explore:Why growth often requires disappointing othersThe hidden cost of staying too long in misaligned rolesHow performance-based identity entangles our sense of loyaltyThe real reason “letting go” feels so hard — especially for those who leadWhat we can learn from coach Marla Mattenson's courageous pivotA micro recalibration to help you take one step toward freedomYou'll walk away with language for what you're feeling, permission to pause, and a renewed understanding of how identity clarity makes every other decision easier.Today's Micro Recalibration:Where are you still saying yes because it's expected — not because it's aligned?Write it down. Identify the fear keeping you there. Take one small step toward integrity.If you lead a team, a mission, or a household — this matters.Because misalignment at the top always becomes exhaustion underneath.Let this episode be your reminder:You're not failing. You're freeing.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

High-capacity humans often hold themselves to impossible standards. This episode offers a sacred reframe — the God who called you isn't grading you. He's guiding you.You're growing, but it doesn't always look graceful. High-capacity humans tend to measure progress in outcomes — but God sees the heart.In this episode, Julie Holly invites you into a tender, grounded reflection: what if you're not failing — you're forming? Through Scripture, personal insight, and a powerful recalibration moment, you'll be reminded that God delights in your becoming.You're not behind. You're becoming.What We Cover in This Episode:• Why performance-based faith leaves high-capacity humans burned out• How God's delight differs from your inner critic• Why spiritual formation is not linear or logical• The illusion of “getting it right” in growth and leadership• Why God doesn't demand perfection — just surrender• What it means to embody grace in seasons of transition• A soul-rooted recalibration you can take into your day• Gentle encouragement for faith-driven leaders and parentsToday's Micro-Recalibration:Pause for one moment of stillness.Ask yourself:• Where have I been striving for perfection instead of trusting God's timing?• What would change if I believed He already delights in me — not because I'm perfect, but because I'm becoming?Write a short prayer, speak it out loud, or simply breathe into the truth that He's not waiting for you to get it right. He's walking with you, in love.If you lead others, consider:Where might someone on your team or in your family need grace instead of critique today?Mentioned in This Episode:• Episode 29: Trusting the Process When the Progress Is Quiet• Episode 31: The Power of Pattern Interrupts• Episode 34: When You Feel Behind — But You're Actually GrowingIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

You're not your title. You're not your hustle. You're not your past. This episode dismantles the identity myths keeping high-capacity professionals stuck—and shows you what happens when you recalibrate from truth.You're not your title.You're not your hustle.You're not your past.You've probably heard that before—but if you're honest, there are still parts of you living as if those things define you.In this episode of the Identity-Level Recalibration Podcast, Julie Holly explores the quiet, often-unquestioned myths around identity that keep high-capacity humans stuck in performance-based lives that no longer reflect who they are becoming.If you've ever said:“I'm only valuable when I'm producing.”“Slowing down means I'll fall behind.”“If I'm not needed, I'm not enough.”This episode is your wake-up call.Julie unpacks:✔️ The most common identity myths silently sabotaging alignment✔️ Why high performers confuse value with visibility, output, and affirmation✔️ The difference between performance and identity✔️ Why recalibration is a return to truth, not a departure from success✔️ How faith and vertical alignment ground your identity in something more permanent than public perceptionYou'll also hear how recalibration opens the door to joy, peace, and the surprising parts of yourself you've never met—because identity isn't fixed… it evolves.Today's Micro-Recalibration PromptWhat belief are you holding about yourself that you've never questioned?Write it down.Say it out loud.And ask:“Is this actually true—or just familiar?”You are allowed to release stories that no longer serve your becoming.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

You've built a successful life — but something feels off. This episode reveals the hidden cost of performing from an outdated identity and why alignment, not effort, is the real shift.What if the reason you feel off isn't burnout — but misalignment? In this kickoff episode of the Identity-Level Recalibration podcast, Julie Holly explores the moment when success stops feeling like success and introduces the first recalibration truth: Identity precedes behavior. You'll discover why strategy stalls without identity alignment, how your nervous system protects old self-concepts, and why coming home to yourself is the next evolution. This is where transformation begins — not with doing, but with becoming.Today's Micro Recalibration: Where in your life are you still living as a past version of yourself?Is it in your calendar — saying yes to things that fit an old version of you?Is it in how you lead your team? How you show up in your relationship?Is it simply in how you talk to yourself?Here's the prompt to carry today:“I am no longer available to live someone else's version of me.”Whisper it. Write it. Breathe it.Because awareness is the first hinge that opens the door to change.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Should everyday investors be allowed to hold private equity, venture capital, or even crypto in their 401(k)s? A new executive order suggests it might soon be possible. In this episode, we walk through the real implications of this move, especially for retirement savers who may not be equipped to handle the risks. We start with a quick quiz that highlights a troubling truth: most 401(k)-only investors don't understand basic financial principles like compound interest, inflation, or diversification. If many people struggle with the fundamentals, what happens when we layer in high-fee, illiquid, and opaque investments? You'll hear what's already allowed in retirement plans, why private equity firms are pushing for broader access, and what dangers exist when complexity is added to accounts that are supposed to be simple and secure. We share a personal example from our own experience with illiquid private investments and explain why adding these as standalone options could backfire for plan participants. This episode also explores why this change might be happening now, what fiduciaries need to consider, and why protecting investors requires more than just offering new choices. It requires clear guidance, thoughtful planning, and honest conversations about financial literacy. Although this show does not provide specific tax, legal, or financial advice, you can engage Devin or John through their individual firms. 

In this episode, I talk about why preparation is not control — it's alignment, how readiness proves you trust God's promise more than your own timeline, the difference between waiting in fear vs. waiting in faith, why what you prepare for becomes the evidence of what you believe and more.CONNECT WITH ME…→ Instagram — @mattgottesman→ My Substack — mattgottesman.substack.com → Apparel — thenicheisyou.comRESOURCES…→ Recommended Book List — CLICK HERE→ Workshops — CLICK HERE→ Masterclass — CLICK HEREWORKSHOPS + MASTERCLASS:→ Need MORE clarity? - Here's the FREE… 6 Days to Clarity Workshop - clarity for your time, energy, money, creativity, work & play→ Write, Design, Build: Content Creator Studio & OS - Growing the niche of you, your audience, reach, voice, passion & incomeOTHER RELATED EPISODES:You Don't Need to Reinvent Yourself… You Need to Remember YourselfApple: https://bit.ly/3ImWKgYSpotify: https://bit.ly/4nJAKwY

Join Jill for the five-year anniversary of Be YOU - a special live podcast event celebrating 300 episodes of the podcast - on Saturday, October 25th from 1–5 p.m. in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Tickets are selling fast at jillherman.com/beyou, and discounted rooms are available at a boutique hotel right next door! Listen in to Jill this week as she opens up by sharing her personal experience with the "11-11-11 Compliment Experience" that she invited her listeners to try in the last couple of episodes, reflecting on how it was initially difficult but became easier over time. She then transitions into a major decision that she has faced - the opportunity to start a new brick-and-mortar business venture that felt aligned and exciting but that ultimately had to be turned down. Hear how, through a powerful moment of self-reflection, Jill realized this new business would be a distraction from her true purpose - to write a book that has been on her heart for years. Jill reflects on how she surrendered the business opportunity and trusted that if it was meant to be, it would flow easily. Shortly after, she had a profound realization while re-reading one of her own past writings - that the book she has been struggling with is her true calling and dharma, and she ultimately made the difficult decision to forgo the business venture for the time being in order to focus on completing this book. Jill encourages listeners to examine their own lives and identify any "perfect" opportunities that may actually be distractions from their higher purpose. She challenges listeners to be willing to choose the uncomfortable, uncertain path that aligns with their true north even if it means going against what seems logical or guaranteed. Jill also, of course, reminds listeners to attend her upcoming Be YOU event in October where she believes profound change will take place!

“Just because everyone is chasing it doesn't mean it's aligned for you. Validation is expensive—and it's not always required.” – Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon Most entrepreneurs crave external validation—but what if chasing accolades is actually costing you more than it's worth? In this bold and brutally honest rewind of a viral fan-favorite episode, Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon pulls back the curtain on why she made the conscious decision not to reapply for the Inc 5000, even after making the list two years in a row and generating millions in verified revenue. This episode is not a takedown—it's a wake-up call for seven-figure CEOs who want to build legacies, not illusions. Whether you're dreaming of the Inc 5000 or already on it, this episode will challenge everything you believe about validation, profitability, and strategic visibility. From the real numbers behind application costs to the emotional toll of comparison, you'll walk away with clarity on when to pursue public recognition—and when to walk away. For the millions-minded entrepreneur who's done hustling for applause and is ready to move in divine alignment, this conversation is your compass. This episode is a call to stop equating visibility with viability. Dr. Darnyelle dismantles the glorified chase for third-party accolades and replaces it with a deeper standard—one that measures success by profitability, purpose, and alignment with your divine assignment. If you're obsessed with being seen but your margins are shrinking, this episode is your course correction. This is your invitation to ditch the applause and own your power. If you've ever questioned whether recognition was serving your next level—or simply stroking your ego—this episode is a must-listen. Stop what you're doing and tune in. The real flex is not another award—it's profitability, peace, and purpose. Here's the Truth: Getting on a prestigious list might feed your ego, but it won't fix your business. Visibility without strategy is vanity. In this episode, Dr. Darnyelle reveals the hidden costs of chasing awards—including how she spent five figures just to prove what she'd already built. When you know who sent you, you don't need outside approval. Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook and listen in to discover: A behind-the-scenes look at what the Inc 5000 process really costs A framework for deciding when public recognition aligns with your growth Confidence to validate your success without external applause How to discern if an award like Inc 5000 fits your current business season How to create a monetization strategy around recognition (if you pursue it) How to shift from comparison to conviction when making high-level decisions 5 Questions to Ask Yourself While Listening: Am I chasing recognition or building legacy? Have I created a monetization strategy for my visibility? Is my desire to apply rooted in comparison or calling? What investments are actually moving my business forward? Do I need external validation—or do I need to trust my impact? 5 Powerful Quotes from the Episode: “Once you know better, you do better. And I know better now.” – Dr. Darnyelle “The Inc 5000 is paid media. I don't need to pay someone to validate what God already approved.” – Dr. Darnyelle “The true CEOs aren't just making millions—they're keeping millions.” – Dr. Darnyelle “It's not a flex to burn out for visibility.” – Dr. Darnyelle quoting a colleague “If you're going to get on the list, you better have a strategy to make it work for your business.” – Dr. Darnyelle Resources Mentioned: Move to Millions by Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon – Get Your Copy Companion Guide for Move to Millions – Download for a detailed overview of the seven systems to seven figures.

Hello and welcome back to First Principles. I'm thrilled to bring you episode 46, my conversation with Anand Jain, the co-founder of Mumbai-headquartered customer engagement platform CleverTap.Anand and I were once colleagues at the media conglomerate Network 18. He got out before I did.In 2013 he and two of his colleagues, Sunil Thomas and Kondamudi, left Network 18 and decided to fire up their respective laptops and code a new customer engagement platform. In just a few months, WizRocket, as it was then called, found its first – albeit non-paying customer. Then, in fairly short order, word-of-mouth driven inbound Seed and Series A investments.Over time it became Clevertap, raising over $180M in VC funding and becoming a globally used and respected product.As it turns out though, one of Clevertap's operating philosophies is, well, First Principles. A strong reason is because Anand himself is a strong believer in it.At the age of 12 he lost his dad. Thus, at an age when kids are taught to focus only on studies, Anand started tinkering, repairing and learning computer programming to earn money to put food on the table.His first business was a scheduling system for lawyers in Ahmedabad, written in FoxPro. That was in 1994.His friends in college called him “khurpechi” in Hindi. Literally, that's a person who uses a khurpi – a gardening tool – to turn soil over to weed crops or plants. Colloquially though, that's a person who is curious, restless and is always meddling around with things that don't concern them directly.Along the way, Anand co-founded Burrp, one of India's first restaurant review portals, which got acquired by Network 18. While he was building and running Burrp, he also started manufacturing and selling pigeon spikes to shops, because he noticed there was no one doing that in India!“I shouldn't be here,” he told me. Why, I asked. He is not very smart, he replied. He doesn't have good educational pedigree. He did not even study computer science formally. But, he said, he is extremely hard working and believes that anything can be learnt through hard work and perseverance.You can see why First Principles is a concept that is dear to Anand.I asked him how happy he was on a scale of 10. He said 10.I asked him if he'd ever thought of retiring. He said never. Life is too short to not have fun, he said.Indeed, it is. So let's dive into episode 46, with Anand Jain, co-founder of Clevertap.This is part 2 of my conversation with him-This episode was produced by Hari Krishna, with mixing and mastering by Rajiv CN.Write to us at fp@the-ken.com with your feedback, suggestions and guests you would want to see on First Principles.If you enjoyed this episode, please help us spread the word by sharing and gifting it to your friends and family.

That menopause marks decline, invisibility, and the shrinking of our lives.But here's the truth: midlife is not an ending-  it's a reawakening.In this episode of the Goddess Got Goals Podcast, I'm unpacking the idea of the Midlife Reawakening and why menopause is actually a time of rebirth, rediscovery, and remembering who you truly are beneath the labels.

Revelation 21 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God's dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”6 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children. 8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”The New Jerusalem, the Bride of the Lamb9 One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.” 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. 11 It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. 12 It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel. 13 There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south and three on the west. 14 The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.15 The angel who talked with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city, its gates and its walls. 16 The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia in length, and as wide and high as it is long. 17 The angel measured the wall using human measurement, and it was 144 cubits thick. 18 The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. 19 The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, 20 the fifth onyx, the sixth ruby, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth turquoise, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. 21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass.22 I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. 23 The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. 24 The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it. 25 On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there. 26 The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it. 27 Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.

In this episode, we tackle the often-taboo topic of…money. Specifically, money blocks – those pesky limiting beliefs that can hold us back in business. We share our personal experiences with money narratives that shaped our views on wealth and success. From feeling guilty about charging for work we love, to the fear of being perceived as "slimy" when selling, we get real about how these beliefs can impact our businesses. You'll hear us discuss the importance of recognizing these narratives and how they can affect your mindset and performance. If you've ever felt stuck in your relationship with money or unsure about how to confidently ask for what you deserve, this episode is for you! Join us as we unpack these themes and encourage you to check in on your own money mindset. Let's break those blocks together!  

God had given Moses the law on tablets of stone, and was to deliver the word, but instead he threw it at the people in his anger. He shattered the very thing God entrusted him with. In this revealing message, Ps. Morgan reveals a pattern in Jesus' response to Moses when he went up to the mountain. God creates something perfect, man breaks it, and then God invites man to the restoration process.
