Killing the Poverty Mindset – TSP Rewind – Epi-306 Nov 10, 2025

Show notes

In our journey on this podcast, we dissected the many layers that contribute to this limiting belief system. From societal pressures to personal experiences, the poverty mindset can be a silent saboteur in our lives. It’s not just about money; it’s about how we perceive value, worth, and potential in ourselves and in the world around us. Furthermore, we shared actionable steps and insights to help you break free from these chains. It’s time to redefine success on your own terms, embrace abundance in all its forms and pave the way for a future where you’re in control. Remember, it’s … Continue reading →

TSP-25 Fall Workshop Presentations Available for Free Nov 10, 2025

Show notes

TSP-25 may have been the best workshop we have ever done. The talks by and panels with Alan Booker on it alone were likely worth the cost of admission. That is what over a dozen attendees said to me, not my personal opinion, though I do agree. As we have for years now we brought in professional AV people to run things and live streamed all the presentations as we ran them. They are going to stay available for replay on my channel. You can find the entire playlist here… TSP-25 Fall Workshop Playlist

Lifestyle Design is For Everyone – TSP Rewind – Epi-305 Nov 06, 2025

Show notes

Today we discuss the concept of lifestyle design, which has been a core piece of TSP since the very first days of our journey. Many credit author and entrepreneur Tim Ferris with this concept. I love Tim and have followed his work for years. There is no doubt that he is a big part of the movement today, but he simply made people aware of the concept. The concept itself is as old as civilization. There have always been people who have lived differently then others, more disciplined and with a plan for their life. For instance the 1926 classic … Continue reading →

Twelve Overlooked Vegetables for the Garden – TSP Rewind – Epi-303 Nov 04, 2025

Show notes

In the spring and early summer talk a walk in the garden section of any big store or even typical smaller plant nurseries. Mostly you see peppers, tomatoes, squash, cucumbers and a few other veggies and herbs. There are so many other options though and many are tougher than our stand alone favorites. Fore instance so many people love growing tomatoes but in many areas they are plagued by early and late blight. You can usually get a decent yield and then you hit a wall, well why not grow tomatillos instead. They make fantastic salsa, are great grilled and … Continue reading →

Planning Your Future When the Future is Uncertain – TSP Rewind – Epi-302 Nov 03, 2025

Show notes

We talk a lot about what I call “lifestyle design” around here. When people hear that term they get the general idea, because the words are common. Lifestyle – The way in which a person lives. ~ Design – Purpose, planning, intention and thought behind an action. ` So lifestyle design means to put purpose, planning, intention and thought into how you live your life.

Blood in the Streets, History Repeats – Epi-3575 Oct 29, 2025

Show notes

Today I’m joined by CJ Killmer, host of the Dangerous History Podcast, for a hard look at where America might be headed as tensions and political violence keep rising. A lot of people compare our current divide to the Civil War, but CJ makes a strong case that’s the wrong model. Instead, he points to the Troubles in Northern Ireland, a messy, decades-long conflict that mixed politics, religion, and insurgency in ways that feel a lot closer to what a modern breakdown could look like. CJ knows this history inside and out. He studied the British Empire and Irish history … Continue reading →
