This time last year I decided to archive my Instagram feed, pop up a nine grid, and stop sharing on that platform and a year later I continue to be so glad that I made that choice.In today's episode I reflect on this decision, share some thoughts and feelings on the freedom that comes with not living my life through the lens of how I can share it online, and how and why my business has continued to gently thrive without social media being a piece of my marketing plan.This episode isn't here to try and convince you to quit IG if it's a platform you love, it's just here to encourage you to know that you get to decide which platforms you use to grow and promote your business and can always walk away from something that isn't working best for you.Links:Join my free library filled with resources to support you to create a spacious workweek, a steady and thriving income, and honour your humanness every day.

What happens when one man's courage outlives his life, and one nation's greatest tragedy still echoes 25 years later? One year after Charlie Kirk's death and as we pause to remember the lives lost on 9/11, we're reflecting on two moments that continue to shape America's future in very different ways. What have we learned? What have we forgotten? And what responsibility do Christians have in preserving truth, courage, and the values that hold a republic together? In this episode, we discuss legacy, leadership, patriotism, grief, and why remembering matters. Because history isn't just something we look back on, it's something that calls us to action.

One year after Charlie Kirk's ass*ssination, we look back at some of his most memorable moments, the movement he built, and the impact he continues to have on Turning Point USA and conservative politics. TPUSA says its student organization has expanded since his death, while remembrance events are being held to mark the anniversary. We revisit Charlie taking on a “white privilege” heckler, his reaction to Donald Trump's election victory, his comments about faith and Islam, and tributes from the White House and the Republican convention. Then we get into the biggest moments coming out of the RNC convention in Dallas, including John Fetterman's surprise introduction of Republican Sen. Dave McCormick and President Trump's announcement of a proposed $5,000 “dividend” for adult Americans if Republicans retain control of Congress. Plus: Scott Bessent takes the stage, Trump jokes about James Talarico and Ken Paxton, JB Pritzker goes after Trump, podcast parodies take aim at Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, and the Chicks react to the latest arguments surrounding Erika Kirk, Candace Owens and Megyn Kelly.Be confident in your portfolio with Bulwark!

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they reflect upon the one year anniversary of Charlie Kirk's assassination and what has happened since, AI whistleblowers warning that the technology could kill all of us within a decade, President Trump's promise of $5,000 checks if Republicans keep control of Congress, and Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman participating in the GOP midterm convention.First, they mark one year since the horrific, public murder of TPUSA Founder Charlie Kirk in Utah. They discuss the huge hole Charlie leaves in the conservative movement, the disgusting conspiracy theories Erika Kirk and others have been forced to endure, and how the right is more fractured without Charlie here.Next, they react to a former Anthropic employee saying Anthropic and OpenAI are not operating responsibly, that AI will soon be beyond their control, and that it will kill all of us within the next decade. Jim and Greg don't think humanity will be wiped out over the next 10 years but they are bothered by tech company leaders who don't seem to care if they lose control of this technology.Then they wince as President Trump promises $5,000 checks to every adult citizen if Republicans maintain majorities in the House and Senate. Jim and Greg explain how cutting checks like this over the past several years has not been good for our economy.Finally, they discuss Sen. Fetterman taking part in the GOP midterm convention. Jim points out that Fetterman is hated on the left and too liberal for the right. So will Fetterman run for re-election and what will that look like?Please visit our great sponsors:ZocDocYour health matters and taking care of yourself shouldn't be complicated.

What's the point of building a business that gives you freedom if you never actually let yourself use it?This year, I'm taking EIGHT trips without my kids or my husband. Some are for work, some are with friends and some are purely because I want to go.And before you think we have some magical setup behind the scenes lol... we absolutely don't. We have zero family support nearby, two young kids and all the usual logistics that come with real life.In this episode, I'm sharing why taking time away has become such an important part of how I make motherhood, business and life work together.We're talking about guilt, partnership, asking for help, stepping away from the mental load and why creating space for yourself can sometimes make you better at everything you come back to.We talk about:Why I started prioritising trips without my familyThe reality of making it work when life isn't convenientWhy we've stopped keeping score in our relationshipLetting go of the guilt around doing something just for youBuilding a life where business creates freedom, not another set of rulesIf you've built your wedding business because you wanted more freedom but still feel guilty actually taking time for yourself, this episode is for you.Relevant links:Join the waitlist for the 2027 Bali Business RetreatConnect with Laura on InstagramLearn more about the Wedding CEO Program

Most business problems aren't actually coming from not doing enough.They're not knowing what to focus on problems.What You'll Learn in This Episode:- How to actually review your year before you plan for the rest- Why copying someone elses business rarely works and what to do instead - Why you don't have to do all the things- but you do need to do something that is useful for your businessLinks & Resources:

Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mreapodcastShawn Cleary went from serving as a nuclear submarine officer to building a team that closed more than 200 units in just three years with simple systems designed to protect his time. One place where he saves a lot of time: social media.What if you could build a $90 million real estate business and only spend about an hour per week per social media platform building leads?We break down how Shawn built a niche Facebook community that produces roughly 12 to 18 deals a year, how he uses geo-targeted Instagram content to generate daily leads, and how his team uses YouTube to attract relocation buyers. The common goal is to provide value first, know exactly who you want to reach, and build around proven models instead of reinventing the wheel.Then we get into the buyer consultation that helped Shawn personally represent 98 buyers in one year without a showing assistant. His two- to three-hour process helps him educate clients, set expectations, build trust, and save time later in the transaction. It is a clear example of how strong systems on the front end can create more control, more confidence and more production.Resources:Shawn Cleary's WebsiteJoin Navy Nuke Property Network on FacebookFollow Navy Nuke Property Network on Instagram: @NavyNukePropertyNetwork Explore Shawn Cleary's YouTubeOrder the Millionaire Real Estate Agent Playbook | Volume 3Connect with Jason:LinkedinProduced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

In this edition of the NdB Sunday Show, Ron Weissenberg of The Accountability Group (TAG), tells Chris Steyn how South Africa could have a new government by next year instead of after the 2029 national elections. He says it can be achieved in accordance with a Constitutional provision for Parliament to be dissolved between national elections once a minimum of three years have passed since it was elected. It would require a motion to be tabled by an MP and voted for by the majority of members (201 minimum out of 400) following which early elections must be held within 90 days. The earliest date such a motion can be tabled is 29 May 2027. Asked why this early regime change has not been mooted, Weissenberg says: “...there's a cynical answer to that - and of course one shouldn't confuse narrow self interests with virtue when it comes to political parties and politicians.” As its advisability, he says: “...one thing that has become apparent is that voters in this country do seem to like coalitions, but coalitions do not like voters...if there isn't support from the parliamentary caucuses themselves, there should certainly be support from the voting public…to ensure that, if the government of the day is not performing, they are given the earliest opportunity to cast a vote for something different and not have to wait a further few years to do that.”

In 1816, snow fell in June, crops failed across Europe and North America, and thousands feared the end of the world. Known as the Year Without a Summer, this extraordinary period was caused by the catastrophic eruption of Mount Tambora a year earlier, although nobody at the time knew the true reason. As famine spread and old superstitions resurfaced, a group of writers trapped by the relentless storms at Lake Geneva created Frankenstein and The Vampyre, changing horror literature forever.The BOOKBY US A COFFEESubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITEResearch:https://www.britannica.com/event/Year-Without-a-Summerhttps://www.britannica.com/place/Mount-Tamborahttps://www.usgs.gov/programs/VHP/1815-eruption-mount-tamborahttps://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/1510/tamborahttps://www.rmg.co.uk/stories/topics/year-without-summer-1816https://blog.nms.ac.uk/2020/04/10/the-eruption-of-mount-tambora/https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20210817-the-year-summer-never-camehttps://www.history.com/articles/the-year-without-a-summerhttps://www.nationalgeographic.com/history/article/1816-year-without-summerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_Without_a_Summerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1815_eruption_of_Mount_Tamborahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villa_Diodatihttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankensteinhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_VampyreSarah xx"Spacial Winds," Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licenced under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licencehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/SURVEY Hosted on Acast.

Listen. Do you hear that? Those are crickets. Crickets at the Marriott Suites O'Hare, abandoned site of Chicago's Fest for Beatles Fans. Unfortunately, there are no humans at this year's festival as it has been postponed to retool. #KitO'ReToole Some of the crickets are in ill-fitting Sgt Pepper costumes, others don obscure Beatles ephemera while wacking tambos to off-key “Yellow Submarine” singalongs, and a small number of lonely small-minded crickets are still wearing their pit-stained anti-Yoko t-shirts, repping for the original incels. Oh and look! There's even an aphid who's a Pete Best Look-A-Like and a corn weevil that's dressed up like Freddy Krueger for reasons unknown. As all the bugs scramble for crumbs of pre-packaged microwaveable hoagies while waiting for “Termites from Midge Ure's Tour Bus” to perform a medley of deep cuts from Press To Play, the Goys of Dum Dum Lame, joined by Producer Casey, are here to gab sad about this year's absence of fab community celebration. Let's take a few questions from the crickets:

Nearly a year after Neil de Beer's death, the NdB Sunday Show looks back at the moments that made him impossible to ignore. From tearing into the NHI Bill to naming his own "ten most wanted" list of state capture figures, de Beer never softened a line for anybody. What most of his audience didn't know while he was saying it: he was fighting cancer, quietly, the whole time. Chris Steyn revisits the utterances that built the show, and the man behind them.

How did an odd wooden "walking machine" from 1817 evolve into a global industry with over 2 billion bicycles today? In this episode, we dive deep into the fascinating history of the bicycle—from Baron von Drais's pedal-less Laufmaschine (born out of a volcanic disaster!) to the High-Wheelers, the "penny-farthing," and John Kemp Starley's game-changing Safety Bicycle.More than just a story about two wheels, this episode explores some of the fundamental rules of innovation:- Why "first movers" don't always win (and how intellectual property loops alter history)- How climate events and economic crises drive breakthrough ideas- The phenomenon of "multiple independent innovation" - Why scaling an idea requires building an entire system, not just a productIf you're interested in history, engineering, or how brilliant ideas transform into mass-market adoption, tune in!You can find a transcript here---------------------------------------------------⏱️ TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Introduction: The 2 Billion Bike Industry00:45 - What Happened After the Wheel Was Invented?01:30 - 1817: Baron von Drais & The "Year Without a Summer"03:00 - The Laufmaschine (Draisienne) & The Early Business Problem04:15 - How London Dandies & Copycats Stole the Market05:30 - The Evolution: Treadles, Pedals, and Scottish Blacksmiths07:15 - Pierre Michaux & The Paris Bicycle Boom08:30 - The Penny-Farthing Era & High-Wheeler Hazards09:45 - John Kemp Starley & The Invention of the Safety Bicycle11:30 - Lessons in Innovation: Scaling Systems, Not Just Products---------------------------------------------------

Poppy's backing band can be seen wearing respirator masks beneath their theatrical stage mask, which is commonly used to filter particulate matter in the air. The respirator mask bears a "3M" mark across the mouth, similar to the product readily listed at several hardware stores.” (Loudwire)

He gave everything for his country, came home without his legs, and then completed 110 miles anyway.Mike Egan is a Marine combat veteran who lost both legs to an IED in Afghanistan. In this conversation, he sits down with Dominic to talk about the G1M Go One More Backyard Ultra in Texas, where he completed 27 loops (110-plus miles in a wheelchair over 27 straight hours) finishing 27th in a field of able-bodied athletes. When heavy rain turned loop 27's course into thick mud and locked his wheels, Egan climbed out of the chair and crawled, dragging it behind him. He barely blinked.But the race is almost a footnote. What Mike actually delivers in this hour is a masterclass in how to think about suffering. He talks about the year he didn't leave his house, the slow crawl back out of isolation, and the realization that endurance sport wasn't about fitness—it was the first thing that forced him to face what he'd been packing down for years. He talks about repurposing pain, the discipline of not breaking promises with yourself, and why he never asks "what if," he just does. He also pushes back hard on one thing: don't compare your hardships to his. Your suffering is your own. How you respond to it is all that matters.This is one of the most direct, no-fluff conversations about identity and resilience TRE has ever produced.Tap into the Mike Egan Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

In this episode we answer emails from Sarah, Tyler and Luc.  We Sarah's detailed plan to take a one to two year family gap year, travel, and unpack tax-smart ways to fund short-term spending, why we keep long-term money invested simply, more cowbell, and why complicated advisor math can be more noise than help how it can mask conflicts of interest.  We also touch on the Cederberg paper (yes, with a C and not an S despite my mis-statement) and why it is of little or no practical use for investors even though it may be of academic interest.Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page (please mention Risk Parity Radio in the comment section with your donation):  Donate - Father McKenna CenterJillian Johnsrud's "Retire Often" Book:  Book | Retire OftenReferenced PWL Link:  Canadian Portfolio Manager: Introducing the “Plaid” ETF Portfolios | PWL Capital: Bender Bender & BortolottiBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:A one to two year career break with three kids sounds like the kind of plan personal finance forums love to dunk on. We take it seriously, run it through a real-world investing lens, and show how a “mini-retirement” can be both joyful and financially survivable when the time horizon and the portfolio match.We walk through Sarah's numbers, the stress points, and the decision that matters most: separating short-term spending from long-term compounding. For a gap year (or two), we prefer building a large, boring cash pile fast and funding it primarily from the taxable brokerage account, so a sudden market drop doesn't force you to sell stocks at the worst possible moment. We also talk through keeping a HELOC as a backup plan rather than the main plan, and why retirement accounts often belong in simple equity index funds when you truly don't need the money for a decade or more.Then we get tactical on taxes. Lower-income years can open the door to tax loss harvesting and tax gain harvesting, including the often-missed 0% long-term capital gains bracket if your total income stays low enough. We also explain why we treat taxes as an expense that changes based on what you sell and when, instead of playing confusing games that “discount” the value of entire accounts.To round it out, we respond to listener skepticism about after-tax portfolio valuation frameworks, advisor incentives, and the Cedarberg paper's practical limits.

Together, Andrew and Houlie unpack:How to balance refining your product/service with pushing for growthWhat usually “breaks” as you scale—and how to plan for itWhy customer retention can be your strongest growth leverHow to read your business metrics and cycles so you don't panic in slow monthsThe mindset shift from “running a small business” to “building something bigger”Whether you're just starting out or already growing fast, this fireside chat will help you think more strategically about scaling in a sustainable, intentional way—so your business can grow without falling apart.Houlie Duque is the CEO and founder of HomeschoolToGo Genius Lab, a K–12 project-based, personalized education company for families who want more than standardized schooling.

Most people think money problems are about not having enough. But for a lot of entrepreneurs, the real problem is something else. You work harder. Make more. Grow the business. Then wonder where all of it went. And every year feels like you're starting over again.Rick is joined by financial strategist Mike Milligan for a conversation that goes far beyond taxes, investments, and retirement accounts. Because money isn't just about numbers. It's about choices. Freedom. Time. Family. And whether the life you're building is actually aligned with what matters most.In this conversation, Mike Milligan, who has spent decades helping entrepreneurs create long-term financial freedom, challenges one of the biggest assumptions people make about wealth. The goal isn't maximizing income. It's maximizing options. Together, he and Rick unpack why most people wait too long to plan, why retirement has changed completely, and why money can either create fear or create freedom depending on how intentional you are with it.In this interview you'll learn:Why taxes should be a year-round strategy instead of a once-a-year eventThe hidden difference between making money and keeping itHow retirement has changed from an ending into a new chapterWhy location, lifestyle, and taxes all affect what your money is actually worthHow intentional planning creates more freedom than simply earning more incomeFollow Rick's Socials:Instagram | LinkedIn | RickJordan.TV

Earth's history has seen some truly bizarre natural disasters. Take the Tunguska event in 1908, for example, where a massive explosion flattened 800 square miles of Siberian forest, likely caused by a meteor airburst. Then, there was a "Year Without a Summer" in 1816, caused by the eruption of Mount Tambora, which led to global cooling, crop failures, and food shortages. There were more weird disasters in the history of our planet that could be called weird - let's learn more about them. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hey Winner, If creating content has started to feel heavier than helpful, this conversation will feel like a breath of fresh air. In today's episode, I'm joined by Michele Duwe, a content systems and repurposing strategist who helps business owners grow by strengthening what they've already built instead of constantly creating more. We're talking about why more content doesn't always equal more growth, how evergreen content compounds over time, and what it actually looks like to refresh your existing work so it keeps serving your business and your life. This is a grounded conversation about clarity, focus, and sustainable visibility without social media pressure or burnout. If you're building a business alongside real life and want your content to support that season instead of competing with it, this episode is for you. Rooting for you ~ Gabe   Listen to hear: Why creating more content often slows growth and what to do instead How to turn your existing content into long-life assets that keep working A simple refresh lens to grow visibility without social media pressure   Links mentioned in talk: Register (free) here: https://redhotmindset.com/gbws-register/ Swag bag: https://growwithoutsocial.com/swag-early  Michele's website: https://misstask.com/ Free gift: 30-Day Refresh Challenge Google Sheet or PDF: https://misstask.myflodesk.com/30-day-content-refresh-challenge

If you've been telling yourself, “This is the year I'm finally going to start investing,” but somehow another month goes by and you still haven't done anything, this episode is for you. Investing hesitation is almost never about intelligence. It's about uncertainty. What if you pick the wrong thing? What if the market drops? What if you should be doing something else with the money first? And when every decision feels high-stakes, it's easy to stay stuck in research mode and call it being responsible. In this episode, Shari Rash, founder of GWA Wealth, breaks down where to actually start if you want to invest this year. You'll learn the investing order of operations, why cash reserves matter before you start putting money into the market, how to think about employer matches, IRAs, Roth IRAs, taxable brokerage accounts, and why consistency usually matters more than picking the “perfect” investment. You'll also hear why sitting on too much cash can quietly cost you, how to think about investing when you still have debt, and why the goal is not to become obsessed with investing — it's to build a plan you can actually stick with. You'll hear: Why smart women delay investing even when they know they “should” start The three-question filter to help you know what money is ready to invest The investing starter path: cash base, employer match, IRA or Roth IRA, and taxable brokerage Why time in the market matters more than trying to time the market How to stop letting fear of the wrong move keep your money sitting on the sidelines If you want help building a personalized investing plan for your actual life — your income, your taxes, your goals, your timeline, and your real-world decisions — learn more at gwawealth.com. This is exactly the work Shari does with women who are doing well on paper but want to feel more confident and in control of their money. Talkin' Points → where your money gets smarter.

January motivation is loud—but it's also fleeting. In this episode, Ruth breaks down why most people burn out by February and what actually creates lasting change instead.

Welcome to Loan Officer Freedom, the #1 podcast in the country for loan officers, hosted by Carl White. In this episode, Carl sits down with John King of California Dream for All to uncover how consistent YouTube content became a reliable source of business without chasing viral status. John walks through his early years of dormant video output, the shift to intentional content, and the moment he started seeing real production from his videos. You'll hear why focusing on a specific avatar and carving out niche channels helped YouTube's algorithm work in his favor, how longer-form videos outperformed flashy short clips, and how video fits into a diversified business model without replacing core referral and database strategies. John also breaks down how he integrates weekly content into his agent outreach, what metrics matter (and which don't), and why persistence beats perfection when building an audience that converts. If you want a grounded, real-world approach to using video and YouTube to grow your mortgage business sustainably, this episode delivers actionable insights beyond the hype.
