The Garden of Resurrection: Mary Magdalene In this deeply reflective episode of 11:11 Talk Radio, Simran guides listeners into the transformative presence of Mary Magdalene, exploring themes of devotion, inner resurrection, and the sacred feminine. Through contemplative insight and heart-centered awareness, this episode invites you to embrace your own journey of healing and awakening, where grief becomes grace and love becomes the path. MARY MAGDALENE Mary Magdalene is a central figure in early Christianity, remembered as a devoted follower of Jesus and the first witness to the resurrection. Though often misunderstood in historical interpretations, she is increasingly recognized as a spiritual leader and embodiment of deep devotion and insight. Her presence in both canonical and non-canonical texts reflects themes of inner transformation, direct experience of the divine, and the sacred role of the feminine in spiritual awakening.

In this episode, I sit back down with Cody Berman, entrepreneur, real estate investor, and author of the book Retire by 30. Cody first came on the podcast in 2018 at 22 years old. By 25, he had reached financial independence through scalable online businesses, strategic real estate, and intentional spending. He quit a corporate banking job after seven months, tried over 30 side hustles, and grew his income from $96K to over $400K in three years, all while keeping expenses under $24,000 annually. His new book lays out a menu of approaches for reaching financial freedom, not a one-size-fits-all formula, but a roadmap built around your own values, income, and life stage. In this episode, Cody shares: Why defining your values and aligning them with your spending is the foundation of a truly free life His four-bucket framework for thinking about side hustles and which type created the most wealth The exact income, savings, and investment numbers that got him to financial independence at 25 How he and his wife kept lifestyle creep in check while still traveling and enjoying life What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out Cody's book: Retire by 30 Read the The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

In this episode of the Career Gems for the Journey podcast, Leah C. Murphy, CEO of Career Gems for the Journey, breaks down one of the biggest mistakes professionals are making with artificial intelligence… using it like a search engine instead of a strategic tool. Leah dives into the growing pressure around AI adoption, the fear of being left behind, and the risks of blindly trusting every AI trend or headline online. She also shares why professionals still have time to upskill, why companies are still figuring AI out themselves, and how to use AI in a more intentional and secure way both personally and professionally. In this episode, Leah talks about:

Today on the podcast I am sharing a story that will speak straight to your soul.And a story that will remind you just how strong women can be.My guest today went through years of TTC and multiple losses. And just over a year ago, when she finally finally got the 2 pink lines she'd been waiting for again, she sadly lost her baby a few weeks later.  But the grief of this loss could not have prepared her for what came next.This is a conversation about miracles, resilience and navigating the depths of grief while you're still trying to bring your baby home.Thanks for being here on Your Journey to Fertility!

Iran and the Strait of Hormuz crisis reveal how much we owe to our merchant marinersThis week, Nick Cohen talks to author, travel writer and writer-mariner Horatio Clare about the hidden world of merchant marines and the critical role they play in global trade. Horatio shares insights from his experience as a writer-in-residence on container ships, describing the challenging conditions faced by seafarers stuck in the Gulf during the ongoing conflict, including extreme heat, isolation, and the constant threat of Iranian drone attacks. They discuss how modern shipping relies on a largely invisible workforce of approximately 18 people per large vessel, predominantly from countries like the Philippines, who maintain the world's supply chains while facing dangerous working conditions and minimal oversight.Horatio explains how containerisation moved ports away from cities, making shipping less visible to the public while simultaneously making globalisation possible, with shipping costs representing just one cent for goods transported globally. They also discuss the environmental impact of shipping, with vessels contributing significantly to global pollution, and the lack of journalism or union representation in the industry, leaving seafarers vulnerable to abuse and dangerous practices like throwing stowaways overboard to avoid fines.Read all about it!

The Union of Faith and Reason: Thomas Aquinas In this reflective episode of 11:11 Talk Radio, Simran explores the timeless wisdom of Thomas Aquinas, guiding listeners into the sacred union of faith and reason. Through contemplative insight and grounded spiritual inquiry, this episode invites you to rediscover truth as both a lived experience and an inner knowing, bridging intellect and devotion in a deeply integrated path of awakening. THOMAS AQUINAS Thomas Aquinas (1225–1274) was a Dominican theologian and philosopher whose work profoundly shaped Western spiritual and intellectual tradition. Integrating Aristotelian philosophy with Christian theology, he articulated a vision of truth in which faith and reason coexist in harmony. His writings, including the Summa Theologica, explore the nature of God, ethics, and human purpose, offering a framework for understanding the divine as both knowable through reason and experienced through contemplation.

Ericka Barnes first appeared on the Journey to Launch podcast in 2019 to share how she reached financial independence in her mid-30s. Since then, her life has looked nothing like a straight line; divorce, layoffs, a new marriage, and a second retirement later, she's back to share the full story. In this brand new episode, Ericka walks us through what she's been up to since our last conversation, from rebuilding financially after a divorce, to reaching chubby FIRE  (Financial Independence Retire Early) in 2023. The financial foundation she had built; real estate, index funds, and a prenup, turned out to be more than a wealth strategy. It was the infrastructure that protected her when life got complicated. Today, Ericka and her husband are fully work-optional, house hacking in St. Croix while splitting time between Atlanta and the US Virgin Islands. This episode is a powerful reminder that financial independence isn't just about retiring early, it's about having the stability and options to navigate whatever life brings, rebuild when necessary, and ultimately design a life on your own terms. In this episode, Ericka shares: How she rediscovered her love of creative writing and the two books she is publishing this year How a prenup protected her financially and emotionally through divorce and why every couple should consider one Why she went back to work after lean firing, what chubby FIRE actually feels like, and the key difference between the two The case for geo arbitrage in a US territory and how she and her husband bought a home in St. Croix with a built-in tenant to offset the mortgage What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Ericka's first episode on the podcast: From Making $35,000 A Year To Being A Millionaire with Ericka Grant The Simple Path to Wealth by JL Collins: jlcollinsnh.com Afford Anything Podcast: affordanything.com Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

Doing everything right at work and still getting passed over is not a personal failure. It is a pattern, and the data proves it. In this episode, I sit down with Stefanie O'Connell, award-winning journalist and author of The Ambition Penalty: How Corporate Culture Tells Women to Step Up and Then Pushes Them Down, to dig into the data behind the very real costs women face for simply being ambitious. Stefanie spent years reporting on personal finance stories where people did everything right and still came up short. That pattern led her to a deeper investigation into systemic bias, and what she found is both eye-opening and infuriating. From salary negotiations to promotion pipelines to the way overwork culture is weaponized, the research reveals a compounding bias that plays out quietly, day in and day out, across the full arc of a career.  Rather than placing the burden on individual women to work harder or ask better, Stefanie makes the case that the most powerful response to systemic inequality is collective action.  In this episode, Stefanie shares: What the ambition penalty is and how it quietly derails women's careers through modern, hidden forms of bias How race, ethnicity, and motherhood intersect with gender to shape who gets penalized and how Why trends like the Trad Wife and the Soft Life share the same flaws as the girl boss era Why collective action, not individual optimization, is the real path to closing pay and leadership gaps + mores.

Every one of us is intuitive, but it's up to you to trust and honor what you know is true. Too often we second guess what we know our intuition is telling us, whether it's because we are embarrassed or shamed by others or just afraid. Stop treating your intuition like a hot potato that you have to immediately throw away. Instead, listen to and learn from the guidance that your spirit guides are working so hard to give you.    This week's theme is: Learn to trust your intuition.    Grab Sonia Choquette's FREE Meditation Guide!   Join the Waitlist for Sonia Choquette's New Certification Program   Highlights: Remembering Nana and her beautiful view on life. [1:30]  Everyone is intuitive! [5:24]  Why are you resisting your intuition? [8:41]  Common intuition stumbling blocks. [12:07] You don't have to explain your experience to anyone.

[36:48]   Sonia T. shared a recent experience that reminded her that everyone is intuitive, but sometimes we just find ourselves on the wrong channel! You may not be able to convince anyone else to listen to their intuition, but ask yourself – why are you resisting your own intuition? Stop circling the wagons and go for the prize! The reward of an intuitive life is amazing.    So many of us receive intuitive guidance, but still don't recognize it. Be brave, be confident, and be proud of all that your intuition has to offer the world. More and more of us are finding each other through vibrational matches. Open up your heart to those connections, and enjoy the beautiful new normal of an intuitive life.    Tool of the Week: Pay attention to others, but mind your own business.

In this episode of the Career Gems for the Journey podcast, Leah C. Murphy, CEO of Career Gems for the Journey, dives into one of the biggest conversations happening in today's workplace… artificial intelligence. From fears around job security to questions about productivity and workplace expectations, Leah breaks down what professionals really need to know about AI, workplace evolution, and staying competitive in their careers. Leah shares why AI is changing the way work gets done, how expectations are shifting inside organizations, and why professionals still have time to upskill before companies fully optimize AI integration across the workplace. In this episode, Leah talks about:

Reactive abuse is real, and it is also the disempowered survival persona abusing from the victim position. Both partners are using the same control mechanisms from opposite ends of the same codependence spectrum, and that is the truth nobody in narcissistic abuse recovery wants to hear.If you have spent years in narcissistic abuse recovery, watched every Dr. Ramani video, read every book on covert narcissism, and still keep finding yourself in the same dynamic with a different partner, this video is going to make sense of it differently than anyone else has explained it. You will see the part of the codependent dance that the entire recovery industry refuses to name, and you will see why naming it is the only thing that finally gets you free.This video walks through the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™ as applied to the reactive-abuse dynamic, with the doctrine of the Race to the Victim Position that explains why every conflict turns into a competition for who was hurt more. You will see how the falsely empowered survival persona and the disempowered survival persona are two ends of the same codependence spectrum, why the empath manipulates from below just as effectively as the narcissist manipulates from above, and the boundary script that ends the race in real time.Reactive abuse is real. It is also the disempowered codependent's survival persona running an old childhood program. Kenny Weiss teaches that the person attracted to the narcissist manipulates and controls just as much, but from the victim position, and that the path out of trauma bonding requires both partners to see their side of the dance instead of cataloguing the other side's crimes. Without that, the same pattern recreates itself in every next relationship.The Race to the Victim Position is the relational expression of the Worst Day Cycle™. When a trigger fires, both partners regress into wounded children at the same time, and the room becomes a competition for who is the bigger victim. Nobody wins that race. The relationship loses. The exit is naming the race in real time, pausing the interaction, owning your side of the court, and running the Emotional Authenticity Method™ to trace the activation back to its childhood install point.Kenny Weiss is a relationship, communication, and childhood trauma recovery specialist who works with high-functioning adults stuck in repeating codependent patterns. He created the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™. His books include Your Journey to Success and Your Journey to Being Yourself.TOPICS COVERED: reactive abuse, codependent relationship, trauma bonding, narcissistic abuse recovery, race to the victim position, falsely empowered codependent, disempowered codependent, victim position, kenny weiss, worst day cycle, authentic self cycle, emotional authenticity method, dr ramani alternative, why your therapy did not work, codependent dance, narcissist or codependent, two wounded children manipulating, healing reactive abuse, breaking trauma bonds, empath myth, both sides manipulating, manipulation from below, codependence spectrum, accountability without blame, ending the cycle

There is a reason you know what to do with money and still struggle to do it. In this episode, I sit down with Rahkim Sabree, financial therapist, accredited financial counselor, and author of Overcoming Financial Trauma, to talk about what is really driving our money behaviors and why the answer goes much deeper than budgets and spreadsheets. After more than a decade in the banking industry, Rahkim walked away from it all to build something on his own terms. That leap eventually led him to the financial therapy space, where he now helps people understand that our relationship with money is shaped by six distinct sources of trauma, from generational and observational influences to workplace, systemic, and societal pressures. He also shares what happened when a house fire destroyed his home just weeks before his book launched, and how he used his own frameworks to navigate the loss. His core message is that most financial education skips the emotional and physiological roots of why we behave the way we do. Once you understand where your money behaviors come from, real change becomes possible.

The sisters are taking over the podcast! Sonia C. is in Paris, so Sabrina and Sonia T. are joining up and lamenting their actual age – aren't they both still 22? No matter how old the calendar says you are, you need guidance in your life. But how can you make sense of all of the noise in your head, your heart, and your spirit? Your emotions and your intuition actually work together, and the sisters are here to show you how.    This week's theme is: Intuition and emotion work together to guide your life.    Grab Sonia Choquette's FREE Meditation Guide!   Join the Waitlist for Sonia Choquette's New Certification Program   Highlights: What do you mean we're getting older?! [:30] Is it emotion or intuition or anxiety? [5:32] Your emotions can direct your intuition. [7:22] Following your intuition takes courage! [10:35] Sabrina's wedding set her nervous system on fire. [17:01] Sonia T. tried to manifest her music dream! [21:35]  Inner conversations reflect your intuition AND your emotions. [38:55] Are you available to miracles happening in your life? [41:38] Tool of the Week: View your intuition, your emotions and your spirit as an intertwined system that work together for your good. [44:10] Question of the Week: What is spiritual bypassing and how do I know if I'm honoring my spirit? [46:16]   How can you tell if what you're feeling is intuition or just emotions? Sabrina describes her intuition as a steady drum beat, while her emotions are more like a chaotic jazz band. Your intuition is steady and unchanging, and when you tune into it there is a calming aspect to it. Your emotions can direct your intuition, so there isn't much point in trying to compartmentalize them from each other.    It can take courage to follow your intuition – just ask Sabrina. She had the perfect boyfriend, a beautiful life, and still wanted to ignore the truth. But the stead drum beat of her intuition kept telling her what she didn't want to hear. She needed to be open to making change, and today she can't imagine life any other way. What is your intuition telling you to do today?    Tool of the Week: View your intuition, your emotions and your spirit as an intertwined system that work together for your good.

Emotionally unavailable is the wrong word. The man you call distant is not unavailable, he is unprotected. What you have been calling a personality flaw is a survival strategy with a specific childhood origin and a specific dissolution path nobody else is teaching you.If you have spent years asking your partner why he shuts down, why every emotional question lands on a wall, why he can be warm in public and silent the second the door closes, this video will name what is actually happening underneath. You will see the engulfment that built the wall, the bodyguard that has been on duty since he was five years old, and the reason therapy and couples counseling have not been able to touch it. You will also see why you, the pursuer, picked him in the first place, and what your own work is.This video walks through the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™ as applied specifically to the love avoidant or shutdown partner, with the doctrine of Silence as the Bodyguard, the three core fears underneath the wall, and the blueprint symmetry that magnetically locks the pursuer and the avoidant together.Emotional unavailability is a survival strategy, not a personality. It forms when closeness in childhood meant being consumed by a parent's unmet emotional needs. The avoidant grew up in a home marked not by absence but by too much, too much emotional responsibility, too much enmeshment, too much pressure to manage the parent's inner world. The child made the only move available, which was to wall off, and the adult is still using a strategy a five year old built. Kenny Weiss teaches that the fix is not better communication, it is dissolution of the survival persona at the root through the Emotional Authenticity Method™.The avoidant has three core fears running underneath the wall. The fear of being consumed, the fear of being seen, and the fear of being responsible for another adult's emotional world like he was for his parent's. His greatest conscious fear is intimacy, but his greatest unconscious fear is abandonment, which is why the wall is the exact thing pushing his partner toward the door. This is the paradox the relationship advice industry has not been naming, and naming it correctly is the first step out of the dynamic.Kenny Weiss is a relationship, communication, and childhood trauma recovery specialist who works with high-functioning adults trapped in repeating pursuer-avoidant dynamics. He created the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™. His books include Your Journey to Success and Your Journey to Being Yourself.TOPICS COVERED: emotionally unavailable, emotionally unavailable partner, emotionally unavailable man, why he shuts down, love avoidant, shutdown partner, falsely empowered codependent, engulfment, enmeshment childhood, three core fears of the avoidant, kenny weiss, worst day cycle, authentic self cycle, emotional authenticity method, why your partner cant connect, dating an emotionally unavailable man, signs of emotional unavailability, healing avoidant attachment, pursuer avoidant dynamic, blueprint symmetry, codependence spectrum, why therapy didnt work, emotionally immature men, how to be emotionally available, dissolving the survival persona

Most people spend their entire careers waiting for the day they can finally stop working. In this episode, I sit down with Brian Herriot, author, speaker, financial advisor, and entrepreneurship coach, to dig into the concept of time freedom and what it really means to build a life on your own terms. Brian spent 14 years in corporate consulting, chased the early retirement dream, and hit the $1 million savings mark right before COVID wiped out 35% of it. In that pivotal moment, his wife asked him a simple but life-changing question: "What would you do all day?" That question launched him on a completely different path, one not about accumulating enough money to stop working, but about designing flexible, intentional work that funds a life you love right now. Rather than sacrificing your best years to reach some far-off finish line, Brian makes the case that you can build toward a "free date" rather than a retirement date, a model that works for employees, entrepreneurs, and minimalists alike. In this episode, Brian shares: How the Time Freedom Formula works, balancing lifestyle expenses, investment income, and flexible work to fund your ideal year The three money personalities (money manager, money maker, money minimizer) and which one drives your path to freedom The "Look Back, Look Ahead" lifestyle design exercise that helps you build a vision for your next 10 years Why contrast,  not constant leisure,  is what makes time off feel truly meaningful What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out Brian's book, Time Freedom (pre-order + get a free audiobook with code JAMILA), here.

Send us Fan MailIf you've ever been told to ‘just relax' as you're trying to conceive, you know how ridiculous that advice feels.

But we know living in a constant state of anxiety can wreak havoc on your nervous system, your overall health and your fertility. So how do you unravel this? And what can you actually do day to day to make changes?My guest today is Anna Ferguson, who you may know as Anna the Anxiety Coach.

217. Navigating Tech Careers as a Woman In this episode, I sit down with Limor Bergman Gross, a former engineering leader turned coach, to unpack what really holds leaders back, especially in technical and male-dominated environments. Limor shares her journey from software engineer to director of engineering, and the pivotal moment that changed everything: a promotion that wasn't aligned with what she actually wanted. That experience became the catalyst for a bigger realization, if you don't advocate for your career, someone else will define it for you. We explore the common pattern many high-performing leaders fall into: working hard, delivering results, and assuming that will be enough. But as Limor shares, visibility, influence, and intentional communication are what actually open doors to leadership. We also talk about the internal barriers like self-doubt, hesitation to speak up, fear of asking “the wrong question”and how those show up in subtle ways, from language to body positioning in meetings. This conversation is a powerful reminder that leadership isn't about doing more it's about thinking differently, communicating strategically, and making your impact visible. If you've ever felt overlooked, underestimated, or unsure how to take the next step in your career, this episode will give you both perspective and practical shifts you can start making immediately. Key Takeaways Hard work alone won't get you promoted Performance builds credibility—but visibility and communication create opportunity. If you don't define your career, someone else will Leaders who don't express what they want often get placed into paths they didn't choose. Confidence shows up in subtle ways Language, posture, and presence all communicate how you see yourself—and others respond accordingly. Growth requires discomfort Whether it's speaking up, challenging ideas, or taking on visibility opportunities—stretch is part of the process. Leadership is about impact, not activity It's not about what you do—it's about how your work influences outcomes and how clearly others understand that.   The book that Limor recommends: The Leader Who Had No Title by Robin Sharma Limor Bergman Gross on LinkedIn Limor Bergman Gross on Substack Thank you for listening to The Visibility Factor Podcast!    Check out my website to order my books and view the videos/resources for The Visibility Factor book and Your Journey to Visibility Workbook.

What happens when you've achieved the financial success you once dreamed of, but something inside you starts asking for more or different? In this episode, I sit down with Tiffany Aliche, also known as The Budgetnista, for a real and layered conversation about evolution, grief, purpose, and what it looks like to transition into a new season of life. Tiffany shares her journey from being in deep debt and rebuilding her life from scratch to creating a multimillion dollar business and financial legacy.

Send us Fan MailIf you opened up your social media feed this week and saw another pregnancy announcement…And felt that familiar drop in your stomach...Maybe you started your fertility journey surrounded by friends who were ‘trying too'…And now somehow you're the only one left. Everyone else has moved on. Talking about due dates. They're planning first birthdays...And you're still counting your life in endless 2 week increments.Then this episode if for you.There is a very specific kind of loneliness in being the last one left still trying to conceive. It's not just about wanting a baby. It's about feeling left behind.Today we're going to talk about what to do when you find yourself in this place: how to navigate the jealousy, the grief, the friendship changes, and most importantly… how to stay grounded in your own timeline.By the time you finish listening, you'll find out:The things NOT to do if you feel like you're the only one still trying to conceive What you should focus on insteadWhat are the little things you can do each day to stay grounded in your own timelineThanks for being here on Your Journey to Fertility!

216. The Career Shift Most High Performers Miss Most high-performing leaders believe that doing great work will naturally lead to recognition and advancement. But the reality is performance alone isn't enough. In this episode, we unpack a critical career shift that many capable leaders overlook: moving from execution to visibility, influence, and strategic impact. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right, but still not being seen as ready for the next level, this conversation will challenge how you're thinking about your time, your communication, and how others experience your value. You'll hear a powerful distinction between telling and showing, and why simply sharing information isn't the same as positioning yourself as a strategic leader. The key is not doing more, it's being more intentional about how your work is seen, understood, and used. This episode is your reminder that visibility isn't about being louder, it's about being clearer, more strategic, and more aligned with how leaders at the next level think and act. If you're ready to be seen differently, this is where that shift begins.   Key Takeaways Performance alone is only a small part of career advancement, visibility and perception matter more than most realize Leaders at the next level don't just share information, they translate it into insights, impact, and decisions Over-focusing on execution keeps you positioned as a doer, not a strategic leader “Telling” (listing tasks or updates) is not the same as “showing” (framing value and impact) Your time should shift from doing everything to influencing, communicating, and building relationships Delegation is not just about efficiency, it's about creating space for leadership-level work If people don't see how you think, they can't see you as ready for more Every meeting is an opportunity to shape perception and demonstrate leadership Career growth requires intentional visibility, not just consistent performance You have more control than you think in how you are seen and positioned Thank you for listening to The Visibility Factor Podcast!    Check out my website to order my books and view the  videos/resources for The Visibility Factor book and Your Journey to Visibility Workbook.

Send us Fan MailThe 2 week wait can throw you more than any other part of trying to conceive.It's fourteen days of searching for symptoms, convincing yourself you feel different… and then convincing yourself it definitely hasn't happened this month.I know that spiral because I've lived it.

215. The Moment You Realize You're Playing Small Imposter syndrome doesn't always look like fear, it often shows up in subtle, quiet ways that keep high-performing leaders from fully stepping into their impact. In this episode, we unpack how “playing small” becomes the hidden barrier to visibility, influence, and growth. If you've ever held back your ideas, waited until something felt perfect, or downplayed your contributions, even while succeeding on paper, this conversation will challenge how you think about confidence and what actually needs to shift. This isn't about becoming louder. It's about building self-trust and learning to show up from what you already know and bring.   What You'll Learn in This Episode Why impostor syndrome often shows up as subtle invisibility instead of obvious fear How high performers unknowingly hold themselves back, even while succeeding The internal dialogue that keeps leaders from speaking up The critical “moment of awareness” that changes everything Why confidence doesn't come from time or experience, but from action The real root issue: lack of self-trust (not lack of capability) Simple, low-risk ways to start showing up more powerfully today How small moments of action build lasting confidence and visibility   Key Takeaways You can be successful on the outside and still play small on the inside Holding back your voice is often driven by perceived risk—not reality Missed moments in meetings are missed opportunities for visibility Confidence is built through evidence, not overthinking Self-trust is the foundation of influence The goal isn't to say more, it's to say what matters Thank you for listening to The Visibility Factor Podcast!    Check out my website to order my books and view the  videos/resources for The Visibility Factor book and Your Journey to Visibility Workbook.

What does it really look like to build a business from the ground up while balancing family, finances, and faith? In this episode, I sit down with sisters Wendy Jules and Carla Nelson to talk about their journey from nursing careers to founding a thriving med spa in Brooklyn. They share how they started with limited resources, leaned on community support, and turned a single machine in a basement into a profitable, purpose-driven business.

Welcome to Wake Up! with Joni, the podcast where embodied consciousness meets leadership through awareness — awakening lived, not theorized. In this second conversation with Cliff Beach, we go deeper into the intersection of creativity, leadership, identity, and conscious living. Cliff is an author, entrepreneur, leadership expert, and accomplished musician whose journey spans boardrooms, stages, and profound inner transformation. In this episode, we explore how music shaped the man he became—and how leadership refined his creative expression. This conversation is a powerful reflection on: Creativity as a spiritual and energetic practice The truth about identity vs. expression Conscious leadership and self-awareness Integration over balance in modern life Why alignment—not approval—is the real success Cliff shares how growing up in a deeply musical and spiritual environment shaped his worldview—and how embracing both discipline and devotion allowed him to live in alignment with his purpose. This is more than a conversation about music. It's about who you are when you stop performing—and start living from truth.

214. The Introvert Advantage   In this episode, Sue speaks directly to introverted leaders, those thoughtful, high-performing individuals doing meaningful work but not always getting the recognition they deserve. If you've ever felt uncomfortable promoting yourself, avoided speaking up in meetings, or believed your work should “speak for itself,” this conversation reframes visibility in a way that feels authentic, strategic, and aligned with who you are. This episode introduces three powerful shifts that help you communicate your value more effectively without changing your personality or becoming someone you're not.   In this episode: The three shifts that introverts need to make Stop underselling yourself—start translating your value Visibility isn't self-promotion—it's strategic communication Prepare before you need it You don't need to be louder to be more visible Your value is already there—it just needs to be translated Strategic communication creates influence, not volume Preparation builds confidence faster than personality ever will Introversion is not a limitation—it's a leadership advantage   Thank you for listening to The Visibility Factor Podcast!    Check out my website to order my books and view the  videos/resources for The Visibility Factor book and Your Journey to Visibility Workbook.

AI is everywhere right now. From workplace conversations to company strategy meetings, it seems like everyone is talking about artificial intelligence. But what does it actually mean for your career?In this episode of the Career Gems for the Journey podcast, Leah C. Murphy sits down with Farron Rucker, CTO and co-founder of Syntax Data, to break down the reality of AI in a way that is clear, practical, and approachable.Together, they explore how artificial intelligence really works, why so many people feel anxious about falling behind, and what professionals can do to stay curious instead of overwhelmed. Farron explains the difference between data analytics and AI, shares real examples of how AI already shows up in everyday tools, and offers guidance on how individuals and organizations can begin using these technologies thoughtfully and responsibly.This conversation moves beyond the hype to focus on what truly matters: understanding the role of human decision-making, recognizing the ethical considerations surrounding AI, and learning how to use these tools as a resource rather than something to fear. In this episode:

From a life-altering military accident to building a philosophy of resilience and preparedness, Vickie shares powerful insights on how your response—not your circumstances—determines your outcomes.

Have you ever caught yourself choosing work over something that actually matters even after you've done everything "right"? That's exactly what happened to me, and it made me pause in a way I didn't expect. When my podcast guest cancelled, I decided to record a solo episode instead. Shortly after, I received a call from the school nurse that my son wasn't feeling well and needed to be picked up. But instead of immediately going to get him, my first thought was whether I could still get some work done. That moment stopped me. Because I've intentionally built a life with flexibility. I don't have to release an episode every Wednesday. I set my own schedule. I make the rules. And yet, that instinct to prioritize work was still there. In this episode, I open up about something we don't talk about enough in the financial freedom conversation: reaching your goal is one milestone, but trusting it and allowing yourself to fully live within it is something entirely different. The same hustle that helps you build your life can also begin to limit you, and achieving freedom doesn't automatically undo the conditioning that got you there. In this episode, I discuss: Why the habits that helped you reach financial freedom can begin to work against you The difference between knowing you have flexibility and actually feeling it What I'm still learning about modeling both rest and resilience for my kids The deeper, often overlooked work of learning to trust the life you've built + more What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

“Becoming the Author of Your Journey” is a powerful declaration that your life is not meant to be passively lived, but intentionally written. Every decision you make, every lesson you embrace, and every challenge you overcome becomes a part of your story. While you may not control every circumstance, you have the authority to choose your response, your direction, and your growth. Taking ownership of your journey means refusing to let fear, doubt, or the opinions of others hold the pen. Instead, you write with purpose, resilience, and vision by understanding that even your setbacks can be rewritten into strength. In the end, your life becomes a story not of chance, but of courage, authorship, and meaning” — SSRGO#AuthorYourLife #OwnYourJourney #LessonOfLifeSeries #PurposeDriven #WriteYourStory #GrowthMindset #LifeWisdom #StayFocused #RiseWithPurpose #BeIntentionalLessonOfLifeSeries@Gmail.Comhttps://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/searching-finding-upholding-your-purpose-samuel-richard-oteng/1143757079?ean=2940161070031

Together, we explore: ✨ How the language you use shapes your reality ✨ The roots of shame — and how to release it ✨ Rewriting identity at the deepest level ✨ The connection between NLP and spiritual awakening ✨ Why "rock bottom" can be a powerful initiation ✨ Embracing your perfectly imperfect path This conversation is an invitation to see yourself differently — to move beyond the stories that have kept you small and into the truth of who you really are.

In this episode, I sit down with Drew Lee, a former engineer turned personal finance content creator, who made a bold decision to walk away from a six figure career more than once to pursue a life of flexibility and purpose.  Drew reached Coast FI, where your investments grow on their own to fund retirement, in his late 20s, and shares how that freedom changed the way he thinks about work. We talk about the realities behind quitting a stable job, navigating uncertainty, and what it really takes to pursue your passions, especially when you have a family. Drew also opens up about working hourly jobs by choice, building a content brand from scratch, and the mindset shifts that helped him stay committed even when things were not working. In This Episode Drew shares: How he reached Coast FI with a $300K net worth by age 29 Why quitting a six figure job was not a one time decision How low expenses gave him the flexibility to take risks The moment his content finally took off and became profitable + more What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

In this episode, I'm joined by Amanda Holden, who has built a powerful platform making investing feel truly accessible. She's now bringing that same approach to her new book, How to Be a Rich Old Lady. We dive into what it really takes to build wealth, why so many people get stuck before they even get started, and how investing isn't about being perfect, it's about taking action. Here's what we discuss: What financial independence really looks like beyond a number and how it gives you the freedom to choose how you live and work + more Why choosing between a 401(k) and a Roth IRA matters less than actually getting started and investing consistently How to think about investing while in debt and when to prioritize paying it off vs. building wealth The mindset shift needed to start investing even if you feel late or unsure, and why doing nothing guarantees staying stuck What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out Amanda's book, How to be a Rich Old Lady Listen to Episode 280: Saving $30k To Quit Corporate America & Pivot To Teaching Women How To Invest With Amanda Holden Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

Ever feel like loving your teen is like trying to hug a cactus?Rebecca Greene talks with Dr. Alexandra Rogers, a retired clinical psychologist with decades of experience supporting children and families. They dig into the parenting pain points that show up in real life: separation anxiety, power struggles, depression and anxiety, OCD, autism meltdowns, hyperactivity, and safety conversations. Dr. Rogers shares practical, time tested tools parents can actually use, plus why connection matters most when kids are at their prickliest. Key takeaways→ Power struggles often explode around mornings, homework, and bedtime, and the move is teaching parents how to step back and get around the struggle instead of feeding it → Teens can get prickly, but the goal is making sure they still know you are in their corner when life goes sideways → For school anxiety in younger kids, storytelling can give them the words they cannot find and lowers fear of the unknown → OCD is not quirky habits; it is anxiety plus intrusive thoughts, and the “hiccups” comparison helps families understand how relentless it feels → Autism meltdowns are about overwhelm, not manipulation, and prevention matters more than trying to “stop it fast.” → Safety tip that hits hard: do not force hugs, and take seriously when a child seems uncomfortable around someone If this episode helped you, share it with a parent who needs calm, usable tools today.

In this episode, I'm excited to welcome back Kristy Shen and Bryce Leung from the Millennial Revolution. Since the last time they were on the show, they've become parents and recently released a new book called Parent Like a Millionaire (Without Being One). In this conversation, we talk about how their perspective on money and financial independence evolved after having a child and how parents can raise financially resilient kids without feeling pressure to overspend. Kristy and Bryce share how avoiding lifestyle creep helped them accelerate their path to financial independence, why financial stability can make parenting less stressful, and how families can focus on their values instead of societal expectations when it comes to spending on their kids. They also break down practical ways parents can teach children about money, responsibility, and resilience from an early age. In This Episode You'll Learn • How Kristy and Bryce were able to reach financial independence in their 30s and why avoiding lifestyle creep played a major role • How becoming parents shifted their perspective on money, time, and what financial freedom really means • Practical ways parents can reduce the cost of raising kids while still focusing on what matters most • How to help kids develop resilience, responsibility, and a healthy relationship with money What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out Kristy and Bryce's book, Parent Like a Millionaire (Without Being One) Listen to Episode 105: How To Quit Like a Millionaire So You Can Stop Working & Start Living With Kristy & Bryce Listen to Episode 11: Rejecting Homeownership, Traveling the World & Retiring by 31 Years Old Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

Sahirenys Pierce joins the Journey to Launch Podcast to break down the money system that completely transformed her financial life: the High Five Banking Method. In this powerful conversation, Sahirenys opens up about how navigating the 2008 recession, walking away from corporate finance, becoming a mom, and preparing for her son's open-heart surgery forced her to rethink everything she thought she knew about money. What emerged wasn't just a budgeting tweak, it was a structured banking system built to create clarity, stability, and peace of mind during life's most overwhelming seasons. In this episode, we explore: Why traditional budgeting often falls apart when life gets hard How to build a simple but strategic banking structure The role emotional security plays in financial decision-making How to design a system that supports you in both calm and crisis + more.

This week on the Journey to Launch Podcast, I'm joined by healthcare compliance expert and entrepreneur Keisha Wilson for a powerful conversation about career pivots, betting on yourself, caregiving, and building financial flexibility before you realize you'll need it. Keisha shares how she transitioned from corporate leadership into entrepreneurship, how that decision gave her the flexibility to care for her mother through stage four cancer and a devastating home explosion, and why preparation, advocacy, and hard financial conversations matter more than we think. This episode is about resilience, faith, and creating options that protect your peace and your family. In This Episode, Keisha Shares: How medical coding became a high-demand, lucrative career path and why skill-building creates long-term flexibility  What it really takes to leave a steady paycheck and build a consulting business from scratch  The emotional and financial realities of caregiving and why advocacy and second medical opinions matter  The importance of wills, healthcare proxies, power of attorney, and financial transparency before crisis hits  Why building freedom and flexibility now can prepare you for life's unexpected turns What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.
