The Easy Way and the Hard Way
The Easy Way and the Hard Way Webster called the U.S. an "empire of reason." Are we continuing that tradition or straying from it? Do we understand how and why this country started? Some people don't even know what country we fought against to get our independence. If you don't understand the Constitution and what makes the U.S. different, then you will want to learn before making decisions that might get you farther from the life you want. While many of us believed what we heard on TV or from teachers, we have learned that too much propaganda has been used over many decades. We need to be able to think for ourselves so we can make our own decisions. Is it easier to just take a government handout or believe what a media person says? Maybe, but is it better for us in the long run? What would happen if we climbed the ladder ourselves? Initially, it may seem harder, but as you keep moving forward, it gets easier. How can we live the life we want? It won't come from hoping some third party will hand it to us. It will take action from us. Join us as we talk about some of the problems and solutions that are occurring. It doesn't matter if we have a high IQ, are starting with a lot of money, or have the physical skills that someone else has. What matters is how we achieve great things in spite of any the obstacles or challenges. Learn what you need to know to make the choices that lead to your success!

Awaken Hope - Helping Kids Eat Healthy with Dr Lewis Meline
Dr. Lewis Meline I began my education in nutrition, exercise, and weight loss while serving in the United States Air Force nearly fifty years ago. Like many other military personnel (and civilians for that matter), I was very overweight and out-of-shape. It really bothered me to be like this, so I began to study everything that I could find to help me lose weight and get in better shape, eventually deciding to lift weights. Many different athlete and other diets were used over the years. They included very high protein intake and a variety of supplements. The supplements were very expensive (nothing has changed in that regard) and there were many times when I could not afford them. After several years of blindly following the various diet plans, and using recommended supplements, I began to notice that the expected results were not being obtained. There was no difference in my strength and muscle mass during the times that I could take the supplements and when I couldn’t. I also noticed that losing weight was no different whether I did or didn’t take various supplements advertised to make you lose weight. What was the cause of this? Was it poor supplements? Was I taking the wrong supplements or using them inappropriately? Maybe my workouts were inadequate or I was doing the exercises incorrectly or even using the wrong exercises. This observation bothered me and I began to research the answer to these discrepancies. During this time, I was accepted to medical school. Now, finally I would be able to get the answers that I sought. However, I was sorely disappointed. Medical school did not teach the physiology I was looking for and it did not address the nutritional questions I wanted to answer. It also did not address weight loss, except for a brief mention of the consequences of being overweight. Therefore, I could not resolve the discrepancies I had noted and was left to research this information on my own. I continued to study from textbooks and any other information that I could find. I also spent a lot of time studying physical exercise and ways to improve my workouts. There were several vitally important discoveries that I made concerning Diet, Supplements, Weight Loss, Exercise and especially Health. My desire to educate people about my findings led me to write a book, “Lies Exposed.” This book educates people as to what is proper nutrition, and how to apply that information to lose weight while maximizing their health. This information is vital for anyone who is serious about wanting to lose weight. This is especially true, since most people seeking weight loss are not aware of the need to maximize their health, and that supplements and medications are more detrimental than beneficial. The knowledge contained in my book was used as a basis for developing the coaching programs used by Straight Shooter Health, a platform for helping people lose weight and maximize their health.

Awaken Hope - The Art of Manifesting with Leisa Peterson
After all, you know it’s not just about money…Leisa shares... After working on the relationship I had with myself for over 20 years and then bringing these discoveries back into my relationship with money, I came to realize how common it is for many of us to get confused about what it means to truly value ourselves. More common than not, we believe our value comes from external sources like money, relationships, and beauty. However, this isn’t really what causes true self-value. Instead it comes from inside and no amount of money, or success for that matter, is going to change it. Which is why you can have all the money in the world and still feel poor inside. True freedom comes as a result of improving how you feel about yourself. Many people lose out on money, time and opportunity every day because they don’t understand how to shift the inner narrative that impacts their their peace of mind. My work is unique because it comes, from the essential knowledge in my core, from my intuition, and from my skills, which have been refined for more than two decades of practice, during which I’ve worked with thousands of clients from all over the world. I share my knowledge with those who value it and dedicate their time and energy to a greater purpose: that of knowing themselves. My approach is not mystical, it is practical. I inspire people to overcome their limitations. I believe true self-realization should generate an impact on the material dimension because that is where change can be actualized and applied. For many people, it isn’t until you go through this process that you achieve financial independence and economic freedom. Websites: www.moneycatalyst.com https://www.wealthclinic.com

Financial Friday: Fun Ways to Store Value
FF: Fun Ways to Store Value After comparing the prices of eggs, housing, and gold from 50 years ago and today, we realized that some ways of preserving value are better than others. We talk about some of the characteristics of money and how inflation is causing fiat currencies to go down in value. If you can create more value than you consume, you can store that extra value in an asset that will hold its value, so that in the future, you will still have the same (or better) buying power. While we have talked about things like real estate, gold, and silver in the past, today we cover some other ways to preserve value that may be of more interest to some people and may even be considered fun!

People have lost homes to property tax raises, so do you really own your own home? You should be able to choose what happens to your own body, so how can a draft be legal and why are the Amish being hassled for choosing not to take a vaccine? They have to take away more freedom to have more control. What can we do as concerned voters? We can stop voting for the "Lesser of Two Evils". This does not mean skipping out on going to the polls. You can make a statement by showing up. There are options that can still make your voice heard without having to vote in someone that you don't believe in.

Teenager Takeover: Choice in Our Time
TT: Choice in Our Time Our lives and who we are is based on what we learn and the choices we make. If you make good choices, you get good things. If you make bad choices, you don’t This is how our economic system works. We all have the choice of what to do with our finances. How do we make money? What do we buy? How do we spend our time? How do we run our business? Those choices are how the entire system works. If you had to buy from a specific company every time, that would be a monopoly. Christianity is based on choice. You can choose to join or leave. You can choose to love your neighbor or not. There are consequences for your actions, but you still have the ability to make the decision. Heaven and Hell are a choice. One is “Eternity with God”, and the other is “Eternity without God” If you were forced into a religion or threatened with death if you wanted to leave it, that would not be a good thing (that is part of one of the worlds other largest religions, but that’s a story for another day). Why are we against Flock cameras and Data Centers? They are not the choices of the people.

Gina Gardiner & Friends - Marta Czajkowska - Going within - Rewiring the nervous system
Meet Marta Czajkowska I left Poland after seeing a climbing movie about Yosemite. I was eighteen, had two hundred dollars and the conviction that freedom was somewhere on the other side of a hard enough climb. For thirty years I chased summits across the remote reaches of the planet, from El Cap to Fitz Roy to Tasmania to the big walls of Yosemite. I taught technical rockcraft to Navy special warfare teams, in places where a dysregulated nervous system is the difference between coming home and not. For a long time the climbing was the answer. And underneath all of it, a nagging question kept running: what does freedom actually mean, if I've built a whole life to escape into it? I was very good at one thing in particular, and it had nothing to do with rock. World-class at overriding myself. Minimize, manage, keep going, don't be the problem. When I broke my back, the first thing I said was, let's not tell anyone. That instinct kept me alive across three decades in environments that punish hesitation. It was brilliant. And then it kept going, right past the signals my body was sending, well past the point where it was serving me, because the override doesn't turn itself off when the environment changes. It performs as discipline. As drive. As the thing everyone admires. And you cannot see it from inside it. So I know the difference between a woman who is strong and a woman who has learned to override herself. I was the latter for most of my life. I came back from the other side of that collapse with both a story and the science to explain it. Most people have one or the other. The story without the framework, or the framework without the lived cost. Mine came out of the full collision: thirty years where regulation determined whether I lived, and the specific experience of watching the same pattern that kept me alive nearly take me down a different way entirely. That collision is the work I do now. Eight years of coaching senior women and leaders, running a continuous coaching group. I nurture and protect my clients the way I was never protected. I train the capacity underneath the performing, in real mountains, so the women I work with can lead and decide and meet what's in front of them without abandoning themselves to get through it. I hold the parts most coaches sidestep. The grief. The fear. The version of you that is ending so a truer one can form. The entire hard-things industry is built by men for the performance of more, and I do the opposite work: healing over achievement, which is the correction that industry has never made. I learned why the hard way, and I will not run you the way I was once run. Website: https://mastersofbadassery.com

Founder Story: Unleashing Your Inner Wonder Woman with 'Queen of the Americas' Jennifer Logue, CEO of Leadership Communication Skills Consultancy Phenomenal Speaking
What happens when Southern hospitality meets New York Assertiveness? You get Jennifer Logue, the force behind Phenomenal Speaking, who's transforming how Leaders communicate through a powerful blend of Emotional Intelligence and Radical Candor. Jennifer's journey began in the South, where family values and entrepreneurial spirit shaped her foundation. Her grandfather – a trial attorney she affectionately calls "Papa" – showed her what true Leadership looks like by fighting for justice while raising three strong women. "Remember you are loved," his words that catch in her throat when she shares them, became both her personal mantra and professional compass. When Jennifer arrived in New York at 21, the city immediately taught her a crucial lesson: you can't control everything, but you can choose how you respond. Managing Irish pubs and nightclubs became her MBA in human behavior, teaching her to cool down tense situations while maintaining boundaries. This unique combination – creating space for people to be heard while moving them toward action – now defines her Executive Coaching approach. What makes Jennifer's method truly "phenomenal" is how she weaves together seemingly contradictory strengths. Named after Maya Angelou's poem "Phenomenal Woman," her business embodies both fierce advocacy and deep empathy. "People forget what you've said, they'll forget what you've done, but they'll never forget how you made them feel," she quotes Angelou, explaining how this philosophy guides her work with clients. When not Coaching Executives, Jennifer performs with her Theatre Company "Our Bar NYC" and Jug-Band "The Salt Cracker Crazies", channels her inner Gamer with titles like Red Dead Redemption 2, and spoils Hazelnut, her beloved dog. These creative outlets keep her grounded and remind her of the importance of play in professional growth. Want to develop your own communication superpowers? Connect with Jennifer at www.phenomenalspeaking.com and discover how emotional intelligence can transform your leadership presence while staying authentically you.

The Vault Expert - What Might a Child be Communicating Before They Can Explain What is Happening?
Patti Katter welcomes Alicia Chandler of Servius Group for a conversation about school safety, child protection, and the opportunities to intervene earlier. Drawing on 22 years in law enforcement and her experience interviewing more than 2,000 children, Alicia shares how her work responding to abuse shaped her commitment to prevention. Together, they explore changes in behavior that deserve attention, why listening to the small things helps build trust, and how online relationships can become opportunities for manipulation. Alicia discusses her concerns about children’s access to social media, the pressures that follow them beyond the school day, and why children need to know they can ask for help even after doing something they were told not to do. The conversation also looks at the role of teachers, coaches, counselors, and school resource officers. Alicia explains how Servius works with school communities to identify their particular vulnerabilities, provide tailored training, and help adults recognize concerns and take appropriate action. For parents facing a possible exploitation situation, her message is to remain patient, keep showing up, and seek support. A change in behavior does not automatically mean abuse, but it can be a reason to pay closer attention and start a conversation.

Lies, Damned Lies, and Government Statistics
Lies, Damned Lies, & Government Statistics The government is supposed to be there simply to protect its citizens from those that wish to do them harm. So why are they giving us statistics that don't give us an accurate picture of what is going on? Why are they passing laws that hurt the citizens to benefit other countries or illegal migrants? The media isn't better and seems determined to divide us. We have a good example of a non-interventionist that believed in keeping bureaucratic fingers out of the economy. John James Cowperthwaite turned the rock that was Hong Kong into a booming economy with a low tax system that increased government revenue. What is the moral hazard of having machines fight a war for you? We talk about all this and more. Learn to read between the lines, so you can see what they aren't telling you.
