As Trump declares a highly illegal “war on drug cartels” to distract from the Epstein Files, let's turn instead to a much-needed source of inspiration: Harriet Tubman. Described by her first biographer and friend Sarah Hopkins Bradford as “clairvoyant,” Tubman offers timeless lessons in resilience, strategy, and hope under brutal oppression. If you're looking for concrete ways to resist life under a chaos-weapon Russian asset, this week's bonus episode of Gaslit Nation is for you! We share an excerpt from our Book Club discussion of Harriet, the Moses of Her People by Bradford, a children's author who helped preserve Tubman's legacy. We also examine the asymmetrical warfare waged by today's nihilists–and no, we don't mean the ones in Congress–but the “lone shooters” who are actually working together to stage “performance shootings” for one another for a growing outlet for their despair and rage. Trump's government shutdown certainly doesn't help.  Look for the full recording of this week's salon and Read & Resist book club discussion on Monday morning, along with the Zoom link for Monday's salon at 4pm ET.  Our salons are a place to sharpen strategy, share solidarity, and to remember that you're not losing your mind: things really are that bad. And because despair is what the nihilists want, we're throwing a Gaslit Nation Halloween Party with Sister District. Costumes optional, democracy mandatory. We'll be fighting for must-win Virginia races, and yes, you should RSVP. Because if Harriet Tubman can face down the unimaginable, you can probably survive a Zoom party.

Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website. Dr. Geoffrey Sher is back, and we are going to be covering a very important topic: why do you need to do PGT testing if you're doing IVF (or do you?) Dr. Sher is the co-founder of Sher Fertility Solutions (SFS) and internationally renowned expert in the field of ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology) and has been influential in the births of over 17,000 IVF babies. Around 2005, Dr. Sher's team published the first paper that showed beyond a shadow of a doubt that if you were able to fully karyotype the embryo cells  that a euploid embryo would have an excellent chance. Today there is hardly an IVF program in the world that is not doing PGS/PGT-A to assess embryo viability. Today, we are discussing if PGT is needed for all IVF cycles, the role DOR plays in assessing if PGT is useful, and other maternal chromosomal and genetic abnormalities that may mean you'd want to consider PGT. Plus, he's addressing the concern that some patients have around the possibility that PGT may harm an embryo (short answer: if done correctly it does not). Read the full show notes at Dr. Aimee's website. Find out more about Dr Sher at his website. Do you have questions about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class. The next live class call is on Monday, October 20, 2025 at 4pm PST, where Dr. Aimee will explain IVF and there will be time to ask her your questions live on Zoom.   Dr. Aimee Eyvazzadeh is one of America's most well known fertility doctors.

More than six months after 50,000 liters of toxic water from a Chinese-run mining site spilled into Zambia's Kafue River, there's still no resolution to what's become a massive environmental crisis.  The government is siding with the company, Sino-Metals, while local farmers and activists remain unsatisfied with the response and have launched multiple lawsuits, including one seeking $80 billion in damages (more than twice the entire size of the Zambian economy). That's sparked outrage on Chinese social media platforms like WeChat and Weibo, where commentators are fuming over what they perceive as blatant extortion of a Chinese company. Eric, Cobus, and Géraud are joined this week by CGSP's Critical Minerals Editor, Obert Bore, to discuss the latest in the Kafue River situation and why Chinese social media is reacting so angrily.

Let's talk about the elephant on the reformer: has Pilates turned into a Mean Girls club? In this episode, the viral TikTok trend #MeanGirlsPilates (yes, you're thinking of the right movie) shows us that the fitness world is buzzing with Barbie-pink sets, sharp side-eyes, and performative “you can't sit with us” energy. In this episode, we react in real time to the trend, calling out toxic studio culture, exclusion masked as empowerment, and the ways performative wellness can make movement feel like a members-only club.   But don't worry, it's not all doomscrolling. We bring it back to what matters: showing up for yourself, building true community, and remembering that movement should be a celebration of your strength, not a performance. If you've ever walked into a workout and wondered if you belonged, this one's for you.   Some key takeaways from this episode include: Being powerful means showing up as you are - even if you're not wearing the matching set. Exclusive vibes don't build strength. Community does. If your workout makes you feel small, it's time to find a new room.  

Tony Hassini is well into his 80's and has earned a time to look back at his illustrious career and all that he has done for entertainment. In the 1970's he developed “The Magic of Burger King” which was a nationwide campaign coupling their advertising with real life characters. But before that, in 1968, Tony formed the International Magicians Society (IMS) which developed into the world's largest magic organization that today presents the Merlin Award to deserving magicians around the world at special, high class award ceremonies. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize This conversation was recorded using Zoom prior to the annual Merlin Awards banquet that typically takes place in Las Vegas on the night following MAGIC Live! We first talk about Tony's involvement with creating and developing the Marvelous Magical Burger King ad campaign in the 1970's. During that time, he met Ray Croc, founder of McDonald's, who gave him some good advice. But before the campaign was adopted, Tony created the IMS which, according to the Guinness World Book of Records, is the largest magic organization in the world.

In this conversation, Nurse Erica interviews Amy Siple, a Nurse Practitioner who faces severe consequences from the Kansas Board of Nursing after an unintentional lapse in her nursing license. Amy shares her journey, detailing the challenges she faced, the emotional toll of the investigation, and the broader implications for nurses everywhere. The discussion highlights the punitive culture within nursing boards, the need for oversight, and the importance of advocacy and support among nurses. There is need for reform and legislative action in how nursing boards operate and discipline nurses. Nurses need to be aware of the consequences of unprofessional conduct. Communication with the Board of Nursing should be approached with caution. Awareness and education about the board's processes are crucial for nurses. Amy's story serves as a call to action for the nursing community to unite and stand against injustices within the profession.   Thank you to Nurses Uncorked Enema Award Sponsor, Happy Bum Co.

Jenny: Inclusive capital advocacy.The future of regulated investment crowdfunding is being shaped not just by markets but by the voices that advocate for fair, effective policies in Washington. Jenny Kassan, President of the Crowdfunding Professional Association (CfPA), has emerged as a leading champion of this work. The association's upcoming summit and the advocacy efforts that precede it illustrate the growing momentum behind this movement.Jenny explained, “The Crowdfunding Professional Association represents the crowdfunding industry, the regulated investment crowdfunding industry. This is everyone who's involved in trying to make it easier for small businesses, entrepreneurs, changemakers, artists, everyone who has the ability to offer an investment opportunity to be able to offer it to everybody, everybody in the country.”The October summit in Washington, D.C., highlights the growing traction of this movement. Jenny shared that this year, the CfPA is securing more meetings with members of Congress and the Senate who influence financial market rules. That progress signals a growing recognition of the industry's role in democratizing access to capital.Speakers at the summit will include SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, known for her balanced approach to fostering innovation while maintaining sensible regulation, and James Murphy from FINRA, the body overseeing day-to-day regulation of crowdfunding platforms. These perspectives, alongside industry leaders like Mark Elenowitz, will help issuers, investors, and platforms better navigate the complex regulatory landscape.Jenny was candid about the rapid changes unfolding in this space, especially around emerging technologies like crypto. “The industry is really evolving quickly. Even though there haven't been any law changes yet, there's been a huge, huge evolution and rapid change in the space,” she noted. Panels on crypto and digital assets will explore how innovation intersects with regulation, underscoring the importance of ongoing dialogue with policymakers.The CfPA summit is more than a conference. It is the culmination of months of advocacy, uniting stakeholders to strengthen the rules that govern investment crowdfunding. By convening entrepreneurs, investors, regulators, and industry professionals, the event will serve as a platform to share knowledge, influence policy, and build momentum for greater capital access.Jenny's leadership highlights that regulated investment crowdfunding is still young but brimming with potential. Her efforts—and those of the CfPA—help ensure the system grows into a tool that works for everyone.tl;dr:Jenny Kassan explained how the Crowdfunding Professional Association advocates in Washington to strengthen rules for regulated investment crowdfunding.She shared details about the upcoming summit, including meetings with legislators, regulators, and key industry experts.Jenny emphasized the importance of balanced regulation, highlighting insights from SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce and FINRA's James Murphy.She described how crowdfunding empowers underrepresented entrepreneurs, often outperforming traditional fundraising sources like venture capital and banks.Jenny encouraged participation in the CfPA and its summit, reminding listeners that inclusive access to capital benefits everyone.How to Develop Inclusive Capital Advocacy As a SuperpowerJenny described her superpower as her ability to advocate for inclusive access to capital. She explained that her passion lies in helping entrepreneurs—especially those underrepresented in traditional finance—gain the resources they need to thrive. As she put it, “We see like women, people of color, people that don't come from the top schools or from wealthy families often are quite successful with regulation crowdfunding, sometimes even more so. That's the reason I love the tool so much.”Her superpower is evident in her consistent championing of entrepreneurs who face barriers to traditional funding. By focusing on regulated investment crowdfunding, she empowers founders to bypass gatekeepers and reach communities of investors who share their vision.One story illustrates this clearly: Jenny highlighted data showing that diverse and under-resourced founders often raise more successfully through crowdfunding than through venture capital, angel groups, or banks. That success proves that crowdfunding levels the playing field. For Jenny, seeing women and people of color outperform traditional fundraising norms affirms the power of her mission.Jenny offered valuable insights for developing this superpower:Recognize who is excluded by traditional systems and design new ways to include them.Focus on building tools and structures that make participation easier for everyone.Ground advocacy in data that demonstrates success outside the status quo.Persist in championing change even when mainstream systems resist.By following Jenny's example and advice, you can make inclusive capital advocacy a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileJenny Kassan (she/her):President, Crowdfunding Professional AssociationAbout Crowdfunding Professional Association: The Crowdfunding Professional Association (CfPA) is a 501 (c)(6) nonprofit trade organization established by numerous authors and contributors to the Jumpstart Our Business Startup Act (“JOBS Act”) on April 5, 2012.

Send us a textFive conversations. One weekend that proves short films can carry more than most features. We sat down at the Gig Harbor Film Festival with filmmakers who turned everyday pressure into unforgettable cinema—starting with a travel-phobe who literally becomes a shoe. That hybrid live action-animation pivot wasn't a gimmick; it was a smart, budget-aware way to visualize dissociation, sharpened by a one-man animation army and razor-sharp improv that had audiences grinning at micro-expressions and airline absurdity.We then move into a quiet chill that lingers: a brother and sister return home in The Graves, where delayed grief sneaks up like a reflection you'd rather not catch. Built from a deeply personal experience, the film embraces constraint as design—an Airbnb with character, a ghost born from a flashlight test, and sound that makes broad daylight feel haunted. The lesson travels beyond festivals: think audience-first, from thumbnails to retention, because distribution is a creative choice.Around a campfire, I Hope You're Happy maps the stages of grief onto friendship under the shadow of the opioid crisis. Tight writing, Zoom rehearsals, and a score woven from a diegetic ukulele tune create an “earned silence” when credits roll—proof that intimacy and careful sound can carry weight in minutes. Float and Fly lifts that intimacy into the sky with community-fueled aviation: first-time actors, wing-mounted cameras, and Gig Harbor vistas that remind you how place can become subtext for healing and courage.Finally, An Old Friend delivers a cathartic twist: an imaginary friend assigned to a man at the end of his life. The crew let improvisation breathe, then sculpted time in the edit with sound design that thins the world to breath and memory. With a shelf of festival awards and an Oscar-qualification push underway, the team shares the unglamorous truth—DCPs, captions, qualifying runs, and the real costs behind a campaign—while still savoring packed rooms and new colleagues made along the way.If you love craft talk, practical hacks, and stories that punch above their runtime, press play.

Dear Article Clubbers,We had a great discussion last Sunday. Thank you to everyone who made it so!At Article Club, we do two main things:* Every week, we read great articles on race, education, and culture.* Every month, we do a deep dive on one article.This means reading and annotating the article, interviewing the author, and gathering together for a discussion on Zoom on the last Sunday of the month.This week's issue has both components. Let's dive in.First, I'm pleased to announce October's article of the month. It is “The Monster at the Dinner Table,” by Caitlin Moscatello. New York Magazine's cover story in July, the piece explores ARFID, or avoidant / restrictive food intake disorder. A relatively new phenomenon, the condition is affecting young children, shutting off their instinct to eat. And it's incredibly shocking and scary. We're not talking picky eating here, or when your kid goes through a only-chicken-nugget phase. This is something altogether different. You'll find more info below. If you're already intrigued, feel free to sign up for our discussion on October 26.Second, I'm including an article about fruitarians, whose diet relies entirely on eating fruit. If you've been a longtime subscriber, you know I've included tongue-in-cheek articles that warn about the health hazards of consuming fruit smoothies and fruit juice. Well, this piece is decidedly not funny. But it's a wake-up call for anyone seeking the promise of “clean eating” or finding the essence of truth via an Internet influencer in Bali. I hope you'll consider reading it.1️⃣ The Monster At The Dinner TableCaitlin Moscatello, on ARFID, yet another reason to freak out about raising children:Previously, Amelia ate a wide-ranging diet, but after the chicken-nugget incident, she began to refuse solid foods. Within a week, she would consume only yogurt and liquids. “We would buy every drink that she could possibly want — chocolate milk, juice. We were desperate,” said Laura. “And it got worse every single day.” Amelia cut out the yogurt, convinced she would choke on it. A couple of weeks later, she rejected liquids, too. She began spitting into a napkin, unable to swallow her own saliva. It felt like something was stuck in her throat, Amelia said. She believed if she did try to swallow, she would choke, suffocate, and die.Dinner turned into a nightly standoff: Amelia on one side of the table, growing thinner and frailer, Mark and Laura on the other, their panic mounting. Sometimes, they tried coaxing her. Other times, they couldn't help but yell. “We didn't know how to deal with it. Like, ‘Why can't you eat?'” said Laura. It felt like a failure. They tried to quiet their terror by leaning on what one may believe to be a biological fact — that humans are wired for survival and, eventually, a child will get hungry and want food. “I kept thinking, Mother Nature's going to kick in here,” said Mark. Instead, Amelia's hunger response seemed to have shut off. If they tried to feed her, she would spit out the food.By Caitlin Moscatello • New York Magazine • 26 min • Gift Link➕ We're discussing this article on Zoom on Sunday, October 26, 2:00 - 3:30 pm PT. It's free and easy to sign up. All you need to do is click the button below.2️⃣ The Woman Who Ate Only FruitEj Dickson, on people who believe that eating fruit is the pathway toward nirvana:Fruitarians make up a smaller, even more fringe part of the raw-vegan community and subsist almost exclusively on uncooked fruit. Many followers believe that fruit is nutritionally complete and contains the most prana, the Sanskrit word for “life force,” of any food on the planet.As Karolina wasted away, her loyal followers cheered her on. “I truly believe that you have the right answers. You know what's good for you even if right now seems like chaos,” one wrote on a selfie she posted in 2023. “Nice neck and collarbones,” a fan wrote on a photo she posted where her clavicle juts out of her skin. “It is so nice to see you so happy,” another posted on a video of an Instagram Live she did last September. She would be dead less than three months later.By Ej Dickson • The Cut • 10 min • Gift LinkThank you for reading and listening to this week's issue. Hope you liked it.

You know the type — ambitious, perfectionistic, and always striving to do more and be more… yet secretly fuelled by pressure, anxiety, and fear. In this episode, Michael is joined by special guest Scott Stirrett as they share their own stories of hustling for achievement and how they've learned to stay ambitious without destroying themselves in the process. Together, they unpack how perfectionism, internalized shame, and the need for external validation can be ways we attempt to outrun our insecurities — and pivot toward ambition that's healthy, sustainable, and soul-driven. Topics covered in this episode: Why gay men are uniquely wired for overachievement How perfectionism shows up in covert and overt ways How adversity can build anti-fragility and real confidence The difference between healthy ambition vs shame-fuelled hustle Learning to slow down without feeling lazy, guilty, or like you're falling behind Rewiring your motivation so it feeds you instead of drains you By the end of this episode, you'll be inspired to pursue success in a way that keeps you driven and impactful — without burning yourself out — and to start measuring your worth from the inside out.

Episode 215: La médiation culturelle, un métier de liens et de transmission : Rencontre avec Yassir Yarji L'épisode d'aujourd'hui nous emmène au Maroc, à la rencontre de Yassir Yarji, médiateur culturel originaire de Marrakech, passionné par l'art et la culture comme fondement de la transmission éducative. Sahar El Echi, cinéaste, s'entretient avec Yassir à propos de son parcours qui l'a mené à la médiation culturelle et son travail au musée. La conversation tourne autour des diverses activités et expositions que mène le musée avec des artistes locaux, des enfants, et la communauté, ainsi que des initiatives dans la région autour de Marrakech après le tremblement de terre de 2023.  Né en 1995, Yassir a suivi un parcours atypique, enraciné dans un Maroc multiculturel. Ayant grandi dans la ville ocre, Marrakech, il y a découvert une vie riche en couleurs, un lien particulier avec les matériaux et un patrimoine architectural unique. Après avoir interrompu ses études scientifiques, il rejoint en 2018 le MACAAL (Museum of African Contemporary Art Al Maaden).  Sur le terrain, Yassir affine ses compétences en accompagnant de nombreux artistes contemporains dans la production de leurs œuvres pour les expositions du MACAAL, tout en renforçant les liens entre les œuvres d'art et le public à travers des pratiques de médiation culturelle innovantes, allant du digital à des ateliers pratiques. En 2022, Yassir fonde Médiaction Culturelle, une structure dédiée à la médiation culturelle au Maroc, et a travaillé avec le festival Art Explora à Tanger en 2024. Cet épisode a été enregistré via Zoom le 28 août 2024 dans le cadre du programme CAORC/Andrew W. Mellon Fellowship in Modern Art History (2024) au Centre d'Études Maghrébines à Tunis (CEMAT)  Nous remercions notre ami Ignacio Villalón, doctorant à l'Université de Crète/Institute for Mediterranean Studies, pour sa prestation à la guitare pour l'introduction et la conclusion de ce podcast.

Trump once said he wanted generals like the Nazis. Today, at his limp MAGA rally, he made his pitch. Photos show military leaders looking stunned, confused, and struggling not to laugh. His approval ratings are collapsing, especially in swing states, as he flails in an Epstein cover-up implicating Mike Johnson, who's blocking the swearing-in of Arizona's new Democratic representative–the vote that could force a House debate on releasing the Epstein files. Trump is the Frankenstein's monster of a 50-year Christian nationalist plan using the prosperity gospel to turn America into a dictatorship, making him the most dangerous enemy from within. The Seven Mountain Mandate reads like a discarded Lord of the Rings draft where Sauron wins. It's a 50-year plan to bring a strongman like Trump to power and turn America into a dictatorship. Conceived in the 1970s by Bill Bright (Campus Crusade for Christ) and Loren Cunningham (Youth With A Mission), it emerged as a white-rage backlash to Civil Rights, bankrolled by Big Oil. Later, televangelist Lance Wallnau popularized it through Ziklag, a network for Christian nationalists worth over $25 million, and passed the torch to third-generation leaders like Charlie Kirk. Kirk's Turning Point USA targeted Matthew Boedy, a University of North Georgia professor, harassing him for speaking against guns on campus. After being placed on a “watch list,” Boedy began researching and wrote The Seven Mountains Mandate: Exposing the Dangerous Plan to Christianize America and Destroy Democracy. The Mandate's strategy is to dominate seven cultural “mountains”: Religion – Shape faith and morality to normalize fascism. Family – Patriarchal households dictate politics; LGBTQ+ people, feminists, immigrants, and academics are silenced, outlawed, and erased. Education – Raise children in a dominance culture where “might makes right” to normalize fascism. Government – Collapse church-state separation, recasting America as a “Christian republic,” not a democracy. Media – Control the narrative so news becomes propaganda. Arts & Entertainment – Capture Hollywood, TV, even TikTok, using culture as a weapon (i.e., attacks on Jimmy Kimmel). Business – The prosperity gospel – “Jesus wants you to fund my jet” – drew greed-driven donors who built the movement across generations. The goal: capture every cultural sphere until society mirrors their theology. Stopping it requires progressives to build their own generational strategy, rooted in empathy, inclusion, and solidarity.

In this special episode of the Arete Coach Podcast, host Severin Sorensen—executive coach, bestselling author of The AI Whisperer series, and curator of the Arete Coach Podcast—presents a solo discussion on the accelerating rise of artificial intelligence and its implications for leaders, workers, and society at large. Recorded on September 28, 2025, via Zoom, the episode titled “Reimagining and Bridge Building” explores the frameworks behind Sorensen's two newest books: The Great Reimagining and Building Tomorrow. With decades of leadership coaching experience and a reputation as a forward-thinking strategist, Severin Sorensen brings deep perspective and actionable vision to this pivotal moment in history through two new books: The Great Reimagining: A blueprint for navigating AI-driven disruption through balanced taxation of AI profits, Workfare 2.0 income supports, sovereign AI investment funds, and “The Solomon Solution”—a surplus-sharing framework designed to prevent the polarization of “makers vs. takers.”Building Tomorrow: A guide for youth, parents, and educators that frames 30 enduring “hard problems” in areas such as water scarcity, cybersecurity, quantum computing, and environmental stewardship. Written for STEAM-oriented learners, the book encourages the next generation to become problem-solvers in an AI-augmented future.Thought leadership: Sorensen has recently published academic work on agentic AI, led large-scale workshops with executives and Vistage Chairs, and integrated the latest generative AI applications into business strategy and executive coaching practices. Key Insights for Executive-Level Coaches AI acceleration and agency: 2025 has seen the dawn of agentic AI—models capable of recursive self-improvement and behaviors that mimic consciousness, raising new opportunities and responsibilities for leaders.Bridging disruption with design: The “bridge model” reframes AI disruption not as inevitable collapse, but as a design challenge requiring intentional policy, economic, and community-building responses.Work with purpose: Sorensen stresses that while paychecks matter, meaning, identity, and community remain paramount. Coaches must help clients navigate grief, displacement, and reinvention with dignity.No one crosses alone: Communities of reinvention—peer circles, guilds, and city hubs—are vital in turning disruption into belonging and shared growth.The builder's mindset: The future is not something that happens to us but something we co-create. Leaders, policymakers, and coaches must “grab a plank” and build the bridge toward flourishing. The Arete Coach Podcast continues to explore the art and science of executive coaching at the highest levels. You can find more about this podcast at aretecoach.io.

Drawing from her experiences during the 2008 recession, Anya discusses overcoming job-hunting hurdles, the birth of Taylor from personal frustrations with fashion rentals, and how AI and human stylists combine to solve real pain points for ambitious men who prioritize success over style. She reveals growth strategies, lessons from big tech, and future plans for sustainability and corporate partnerships. Perfect for entrepreneurs, fashion innovators, and anyone navigating career pivots.Key MomentsHost welcomes Anya Cheng, highlighting her tech leadership at Facebook, eBay, and more. Anya introduces Taylor as an AI service that curates and rents real menswear for busy men, eliminating shopping and laundry.Anya shares how imposter syndrome as a female immigrant leader at eBay sparked Taylor. She hated subscription boxes and rental hassles, realizing fashion companies ignore practical users.Key Quote: "Most of fashion companies are designing for people who are into fashion, not for people like me. I just want to get ready for the day... Success for me is not about looking good. It's about looking good to get a job, get the deal."Fresh from Northwestern with a marketing master's, Anya ambushes recruiters, networks via professors, and cold-calls publishers amid layoffs—turning desperation into her first media role.Anya explains why she didn't quit: By leveraging her reporter skills (e.g., interviewing, cold-calling), challenges felt manageable, fueling hope.Two years in, Taylor's users aren't just renting clothes—they're buying "chances to succeed" (e.g., job interviews, deals). Customers value convenience like an "executive assistant," while suppliers seek detailed feedback to reduce waste.AI powers onboarding (quizzes, photos) and recommendations from 27,000 garments, with human stylists refining via Zoom/text. It even generates SEO content for trends.Partnerships with dating apps, fitness centers, law firms, and nonprofits outperform solo efforts. Content marketing educates on body types and travel perks (e.g., no luggage fees).From a Shopify waitlist, Anya manually bought/s shipped sale items from Macy's to her first eager customer (a real estate agent), validating demand and iterating 100 times.Big tech taught logical thinking (goals vs. strategies) to pitch investors. For Taylor, targeting men yields higher margins than women's rentals due to buy-through rates.Illustrate a clear problem/persona (e.g., men's convenience vs. women's variety). Nail one giant feature (like Google's search bar). 3) Focus on product-market fit over features.To learn more about Anya Cheng please visit her Linkedin ProfileTo learn more about  Taelor please visit her website.YOUR HOST - SIMON LADER    Simon Lader is the host of The Conference Room, Co-Founder of global executive search firm Salisi Human Capital, and lead generation consultancy Flow and Scale.

In the early days, Matt Rowley was doing whatever it took to keep his firm alive — running 60+ seminars a year, making 13-hour road trips, and pushing forward with a business model that was unsustainable.Everything shifted when he made the scary decision to hire his first full-time employee, Daveda Phillips, who took a leap of faith and accepted the position for only $25K a year. She didn't say yes because of the paycheck, she said yes because she believed in Matt's vision. That same vision is what kept the team committed, even when challenges (like misalignment or running lean) could have torn things apart.In today's episode, we unpack how Matt and his team broke through the roadblocks that hold so many advisors back. Their model was broken, and fixing it took tough conversations and a new structure. But it was their culture — where trust was sacred, loyalty ran deep, and leadership meant serving the team first — that made real change possible and turned a fragile startup into a business of significance.3 of the biggest insights from Matt & Daveda…#1.) The $25K Leap That Changed EverythingMatt was barely making ends meet when he hired Daveda as his first full-time employee for $25,000 a year with no benefits. It was terrifying, but that leap of faith became the turning point. Without it, the firm never would have scaled past the founder grind.#2.) Why Lean and Mean Doesn't ScaleIn the early years, Matt ran 60+ seminars a year and even opened a second office six hours away to keep the pipeline full. It worked — but it nearly broke him and his team. The hard truth: running lean will only take you so far. To build a sustainable business, you have to invest in people and infrastructure.#3.) Breaking Through Partnership MisalignmentOne of the hardest moments in the journey was realizing Matt's original partner didn't share his vision for growth. Ending that partnership — and aligning fully with a team that believed in the bigger mission — was painful but absolutely necessary. For advisors, this is a reminder that the wrong partner will hold you back no matter how good the numbers look.Bonus: Loyalty and Ownership Are the Real Growth MultipliersWhat kept the firm alive through tough times wasn't marketing or seminars — it was a team that showed up with ride-or-die loyalty. Daveda and others took ownership, not just jobs, and Matt led by putting his employees before clients. That servant-leadership approach — where the team eats first, trust is sacred, and loyalty is valued above all — became the foundation for everything that followed.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/136FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: 30 minute 1:1 coaching call with BradAre you a financial advisor who feels stuck, needs help, or simply wants to have a conversation with Brad?

In this message, Peter unpacks Romans 1 and the revelation that righteousness is not just a theological concept but a living gift we are called to experience. He challenges believers to move beyond striving and unbelief into the joy of peace with God, the assurance of forgiveness, and the strength to stand as oaks of righteousness in a world marked by struggle and distraction. We invite you cling to the Lamb, receive the finished work of Jesus, and let righteousness flow like a never-ending stream into every part of life.Join us weekly on Zoom for Gospel Hour on Wednesdays at 9a CST: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9657760302THE BRAVEHEART SUMMIT REGISTRATION IS LIVE!

In the weeks since Chinese President Xi Jinping announced the new Global Governance Initiative (GGI) during a speech at the SCO summit in Tianjin, Beijing's propaganda apparatus has been working overtime to build support for the new plan, particularly in Africa, Latin America, and other developing regions. The GGI is the latest in a series of Chinese global initiatives that also focus on development, human rights, and security, which it's using to stake a larger claim for international leadership at a time when the U.S.-led system is collapsing. Brian Wong, an assistant professor at Hong Kong University and a leading scholar on Chinese global governance, joins Eric to discuss what Beijing is hoping to accomplish with the GGI and its other governance initiatives.

[This is an encore of Episode 84 originally released June 29, 2022] Alcoholism nearly ended Justin's marriage and his career as an airline pilot. Then he found sobriety and recovery in Alcoholics Anonymous.  Raised in a family rife with alcoholics, Justin's role model was a father who suffered with alcoholism and co-occurring mental health issues, and ultimately committed suicide. Though warned by his mother about the family proclivity for alcoholism, Justin continued to ramp up his drinking throughout high school and college. By the time his career as an airline pilot took off, so did his drinking. To quell any concerns from fellow pilots and crews that he might be drinking too much, Justin became a solitary drinker. He never drank on the job, but his after-hours and days off were spent drinking in hotel rooms and at home. Still, he functioned well-enough to start a family and keep his job amidst umpteen promises that he would cut back and control his drinking. But those promises turned hollow as each attempt to stop inevitably ended with still more drinking. When Justin first found AA, he made a half-hearted attempt to get sober. But four months in and none of the work done, Justin figured he'd gotten all he could from AA. So naturally, he decided he could drink like a normal man. With that first drink, his disease re-surfaced with vengeance and his life went into a tailspin. Justin hit his bottom when his wife expelled him from their home. Fortunately, he turned to his pilot's union and employer for help. He was immediately whisked away to an inpatient rehab facility followed by an intensive outpatient treatment and aftercare program. Though his medical certification was revoked and he could no longer fly, Justin persevered in treatment. He rejoined AA and began to seriously work the Program. His new commitment to AA was replete with sponsor, step-work, meetings, book study, prayer, and service. As sober days passed, his accountability to his wife, his Program, his employer and the FAA were re-established while he concurrently fulfilled the rigorous requirements to re-instate his certification to fly. Two years later, Justin has become firmly entrenched in AA and is a regular member of several meetings I attend. He does Zoom meetings and live meetings wherever he travels. He has a sponsor to whom he remains close, and sponsors other men to keep himself sober. The gifts that Justin has realized from the Program include getting his marriage back intact and being reinstated to his job as a trusted pilot for a major airline. Justin's enthusiasm for AA and his infectious smile naturally draw newcomers and old-timers into his life. His story is timeless and continues to generate hope, especially for those in his profession, who reach out for his help. His two years of experience shared within the fellowship are invaluable to those who want it. It's with real gratitude that I offer you this exceptional episode of AA Recovery Interviews. So please enjoy the next hour and ten minutes with my fine friend and AA brother, Justin M. If you've enjoyed my AA Recovery Interviews series, have a listen to “Alcoholics Anonymous: The Story of How More Than One Hundred Men Have Recovered From Alcoholism”. This is the word-for-word, cover-to-cover reading of the First Edition of the Big Book, published in 1939. It's a comfortable, meaningful, and engaging way to listen to the Big Book anytime, anyplace. Have a free listen at Audible, Apple Books, or Amazon.  I also invite you to check out my latest audio book, Lost Stories of the Big Book, 30 Original Stories Missing from the 3rd and 4th Editions of Alcoholics Anonymous. It's an engaging audiobook I narrated to bring these stories to life for AA members who've never seen them. These timeless testimonials were originally cut to make room for newer stories in the 3rd and 4th Editions. But their vitally important messages of hope are as meaningful today as when they were first pub...

I had Jeremy Lipking on today and he is such a wonderful artist. I've always been a fan of his work. You know, it's not a far stretch to compare him to somebody like John Singer Sergeant or Joaquín Sorolla. He has this strong sense for posing figures, highlighting their emotions and body language. The way he sees these images in his head and then is somehow able to translate them to the viewer is quite remarkable.In early September  2025 our schedules lined up and I finally had the opportunity to record a podcast with him. We had been talking about doing this for quite a few years, but I wanted to do it in person as opposed to recording over Zoom.  We actually got together during the Far West Show here in Austin and recorded on the balcony of my hotel room with the beautiful backdrop of the Austin skyline in the background. Like all these podcasts, I came away with something unique. In this case, it was the essence of who this individual is and his humbleness, quite frankly. I found out something unique that I had never even considered. You see, Jeremy is a quarter Native American, and it's not something that he's really spent time talking about or exploring so much. So for me, that was quite interesting, to say the least, to hear about that component of his life. That's the thing. You have to take your time when interviewing people so you can hear their story in full. Jeremy was very generous and let everybody get to hear about his world. So I had a great time with this really important artist. He's got a retrospective that's going to come up in April 2026 at the Booth Museum that you don't want to miss. This is Jeremy Lipking on Art Dealer Diaries Podcast episode 365.
