Aussie entrepreneurs aren?t that different from American entrepreneurs, only they have to work with a weaker currency and a softer workforce. That makes their business leaders and success stories all the more impressive! Here was my experience with Aussie market movers and business owners after a trip down under.

It can be daunting when you have to do something new, something scary, or something for the first time. Luckily, there are very few things you have to do that haven?t been done before. CIA taught me the value of trusting the process. Even though it may not be perfect, it's better than starting from scratch.

Nobody ever talks about how much marriage sucks. You hear all the great things about being married your whole life, and then you get a cold dose of reality on your own. And even though it gets harder, it also gets better. The parallels between marriage and a CIA operation are pretty powerful, when you see them for what they are.

Trump is in his second term, the government is getting shook up, and our business is growing faster than we ever thought possible! In this conversation, Jihi and I tell you a bit of what life is like for us under the new Trump administration and where we plan on taking you in the future.

In the last few weeks we have seen the successful accusation and prosecution of parents held criminally liable for violent behavior on the parts of their children during school shootings in the United States. This turn in the judicial process is raising questions all over the country as people ask themselves whether this is true justice or a violation of individual rights. Today we tackle this question head-on and ask ourselves not only what the purpose is, but what the future holds for this significant change in due process.

After surviving an assassination attempt in Butler, PA, a defiant and proud Trump was whisked away by his secret service detail with blood on his face and his fist high in the sky. While the staunchest anti-Trump and pro-Biden voters out there are unlikely to change their mind, the majority of American voters are still undecided about their final candidate. But in a moment on a hot Pennsylvania afternoon, Trump changed from a villain against democracy to a hero for democracy by taking a bullet in defense of the country he loves ? or at least that's how his campaign is gonna spin it!

I don?t know how long YouTube will allow this video to stay up. In it, I break down the 3 types of lying techniques President Biden used to influence the American People during his Emergency Presidential address last week. The world is struggling to make sense of what is happening between Israel and Palestine right now. The toll of victims continues to rise, an unprecedented siege of Gaza is expected any day now, and a humanitarian crisis including millions of innocent people is unfolding before our eyes. At the peak of international tensions, US President Biden made an address to encourage the American people to stand with Israel and continue support to Ukraine. While I agree with President Biden that America is a beacon of hope, freedom, and power for the world, I cannot stand aside quietly and let his Presidential address continue to confuse and mislead the same Americans we both swore to protect and defend.
