As you just saw in that show open, I spent 25 years in TV news. Many of those years were spent being the lead story person for Channel 4 and various other TV stations. Unfortunately, there's a saying in TV news, "If it bleeds, it leads," and so many of those stories were heartbreaking for me to tell. It took a toll, and I finally ended up leaving the television business to start this network. Somebody who is also passionate about telling positive stories is in my studio right now: Jan Osborn, th...

I can't think of a better real estate market than Dallas–Fort Worth. I grew up in Detroit, and, you know, when home sales are down there, realtors can’t make a living. But here in Dallas, even during tough times, the market is still strong. Every now and then, a realtor needs a coach — that’s when they turn to my next guest. Rosemary Lewis is in the studio. She's a realtor and the bestselling author of "Real Estate Bestie."

I am blessed that my mom and dad are still with me. They're retired happily in Waco and probably the most loving parents I can ever imagine. I had an idyllic childhood so I cannot speak from personal experience about this subject, but Dr. Paul Chafetz is in the studio. He's a clinical psychologist. He's an author. He's a speaker. He's my friend. He wrote a bestselling book a few years ago called Loving Hard-To-Love Parents.

There's an old saying that there are two very important dates in a person's life: the day they were born and the day they find out why they were born. Searching for purpose is a big thing. Many Gen Zers are waking up in their 20s, and they call it a quarter-life crisis. It used to be that you would be in your 40s before you had a midlife crisis. These days, 20 year olds are struggling to talk about that. Welcome to the show Brian Bosché with The Purpose Company.

I'm going to have to tell you a story about my next guest, Dave Lieber. Back in the early 2000s, I was doing a lot of speaking, and obviously Dave was as well. We would meet at the same conference center, and we both had a big poster for our book. We had a box of books, and we had the same cart. When we saw each other, we just stopped in our tracks and I said, "You're my brother from another mother." We've been good friends ever since, so welcome to the show the great Dave Lieber.

I know a lot of lawyers who hate the law. I know a lot of doctors who wake up 20 years into their practice and say, "I really don't want to see patients anymore." I was a TV reporter for 25 years. At the time I became a young reporter, I couldn't even imagine life after news. But I decided to call it quits in 2008, and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made. Alex Geesbreght is in the studio. He's with PRAX Leadership.

As you saw in that show open, I had reached the top of a little hill or mountain I was climbing called local TV news, and at the age of 45, I did the most daring thing I could ever do. I walked away. It was the only thing I knew since I was a 19-year-old student reporter in college, and I thank God I did because I'm living my best life. I work with my kids. We're producing something like 190 different podcasts/TV shows, and we have another 30 clients who hire us to get them on the news. I love m...

AI is changing every industry imaginable, but look at the oil and gas industry. Oil was discovered in Texas in 1901, and here we are 125 years later, and largely it's still being done the same way. It's generations of families who are searching and finding oil and drilling the same way, so it's an industry that desperately needs disruption. That's why I invited my next guest on the show, Todd Garner. He is the CEO and founder of PINN AI.

For the last three years, I've had the privilege of watching my niece Mary appear in a premier show in Allen every year. They do a huge production, and the most recent one was just two weeks ago.

The leaders are on my show right now.

I'm sure you've heard the term 'silver tsunami'—it's happening across the country right now. Baby boomers are retiring, and many of them are business owners. As much as they may want their kids to take over the business, sometimes the kids just aren't interested in what Mom or Dad does. And now, many of these owners find themselves in a crisis. A good friend of mine—and a client—Scott Bushkie, is in the studio today. He's with Cornerstone Business Services.

I can't think of a time in my lifetime when it's been so cool to become an entrepreneur.

You don't have the right backing, you don't have the right education. My next guest is CeeCee Evans. She's the executive director of Mission/Bridges, and she's helping the underserved start their own company.

My wife and I own a home in Plano. We receive our tax bill every year and dutifully pay it. However, I think it would be wise for us to bring in experts like my next guests to review our property appraisal, because we often pay too much.

This describes millions of Americans—they play the blame game. If only we had a different president. If only the economy were better, I’d be doing well. Try coming to this country with just 50 bucks in your pocket. That’s a real challenge—one that takes true grit to overcome, especially when you arrive with no relationships, no connections, and nothing but determination. That’s the story of my next guest. Lorna Sherland is in the studio. She’s a speaker, bestselling author, and business coach....

When you think about our education system in America, there's a lot of disparity. You could have a great school district next to a bad school district.

He's here to talk about how to create educational freedom in America. He's Jon Lineberger with ACE Scholarships.

On this episode, we're going to have an honest conversation about DUIs. Many people look at it like it's the most horrible thing that could ever happen, and other people, especially people who survive, think of it as perhaps the best thing that could have happened to them because they were going down a dangerous path. To talk about that today, the co-hosts of an exciting new podcast on our network, Morgan Ryan and Izzy Varela. They're with Stigma Free IID.
