  • It really works

    I have been listening long enough that I have experienced the name change. I have applied the principles to separate myself from a part job that I needed to leave. It has almost been two months and the joy is back and my health has improved.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

When a Layoff Opens the Door: Making Peace with Change
Q: What did you do once that opportunity was given to you with Doge, and they invited you not to come back to work anymore?
She started by applying to jobs while building her coaching business, experienced rejection, and then redirected her focus entirely to learning marketing, sales, and content creation, eventually finding opportunities to speak on podcasts and grow her presence.
Why Embracing Risk Matters: Medieval Combat, Entrepreneurship, and Getting Unstuck
Q: Right, and what does it take to get involved as a competitor?
Prospective competitors need to secure their own armor and gear, find a local team, practice, and then connect with organizers to get involved in events; it's a multi-step process that starts with local networks rather than a simple online checkout.
How Programming Holds Us Back: Money, Mindset, and Multiple Incomes
Q: If somebody wanted to learn more about you or about the Academy, what's the best way for them to do that?
Karen suggests visiting the Academy's site and connecting via social platforms; she offers a 30-minute chat to discuss options and move people forward.
When Your Childhood Dream Isn’t Enough
Q: Is the goal to replace marine biology entirely or to supplement it with the new venture?
Rice Krispies will be the main focus, but I'll keep a tie to the marine world through family activities and community outreach.
When Your Childhood Dream Isn’t Enough
Q: What is the biggest hurdle right now in making the pivot?
Time—balancing work, family, and launching a new business, with a plan to start in April and gradually scale.
