    Reclaiming the Global Climate Narrative – with Marc Morano – [Ep. 279]

    For decades, climate alarmists have used fear to convince and coerce people into submission regarding business operations and lifestyle choices. Years ago, we were bombarded with messages on global freezing and fear propaganda filled the media – until data showed otherwise. Then messaging switched to proclaim the threat of global warming. Repeated threats of worldwide deaths convinced the public to abide by choice-limiting regulations that altered lifestyles until once again - data showed otherwise. Now it is all just referred to as "climate change" – which somehow gives excuse to limit freedom, geoengineer weather, and regulate every aspect of life under global control. In this episode, Linda interviews Marc Morano, veteran journalist from ClimateDepot.com. They discuss climate treaties, energy production, presidential executive orders, and logical outcomes of various climate related policies. Marc also provided an update on the recent World Economic Forum meeting and the change in narrative by global leaders regarding climate. Listen today to learn how you can protect the climate – and your freedom. ©Copyright 2026, Prosperity 101, LLC __________________________________________________________ For information about our online course and other resources visit: https://prosperity101.com To order a copy of Prosperity 101 – Job Security Through Business Prosperity® by Linda J.

    Protecting Texas – Protecting America – A Time Sensitive Issue - with Frank Gaffney – [Ep. 278]

    A very serious threat to freedom is rising in our nation. Many people have not heard of, nor do they understand how adherents to Sharia Law want to change our culture, legal system, and ultimately our entire system of government. They have openly admitted such desires and are working diligently throughout the country to accomplish their goals. In this episode, Linda interviews policy expert, Frank Gaffney, to discuss the need for all citizens to be aware and informed on this matter. Frank also provides time-sensitive information for people in Texas who have an opportunity to express opposition to Sharia Law and show support for our Constitution through voting in a special election on March 3, 2026. (Early voting has already started.) Proposition 10 is a simple ballot proposal stating opposition to Sharia Law, and if passed it will send a message to Texas and the nation that we want our Constitution to remain the law of the land. This issue affects every community and every citizen, not just those in Texas. If you care about freedom, you do not want to miss this episode.  ©Copyright 2026, Prosperity 101, LLC For more information on Sharia Law and the Texas ballot proposal, please visit www.BanSharia.com. __________________________________________________________ For information about our online course and other resources visit: https://prosperity101.com To order a copy of Prosperity 101 – Job Security Through Business Prosperity® by Linda J.

    The Future Belongs to the Entrepreneur – with Ziad K. Abdelnour – [Ep. 277]

    Outside the box. Maverick. Independent thinker. These terms are often over-used in our society, so much so that they almost become generic. However, every entrepreneur understands the very personal application and meaning of each word. To forge new paths, we must embody those definitions without fear. This episode, in which Linda interviews author, financial policy expert, and successful entrepreneur, Ziad K. Abdelnour, is a broad look at what it takes to achieve success – financially and personally – and how business leaders can positively impact our culture to foster human flourishing and freedom. Don't miss thought provoking comments about political changes in New York City, shifts in culture over past decades, and the perspective of it all through his immigrant eyes and experiences.  ©Copyright 2026, Prosperity 101, LLC __________________________________________________________ For information about our online course and other resources visit: https://prosperity101.com To order a copy of Prosperity 101 – Job Security Through Business Prosperity® by Linda J.

    A Rising Tide in the Marketplace – Mission Minded Leaders – with Krystal Parker – [Ep. 276]

    Rising tides lift all boats, and effective leadership raises standards of excellence in every sphere of influence. Are you a mission-minded leader? What is your mission?  For many leaders, their mission is to gain more money, power, or fame. While that may indicate success in the eyes of others, it can also lead to emptiness, division, and despair.  Money cannot buy true purpose, unity, or freedom. However, there is a rising tide of business leaders choosing to focus on mission over money, service over selfishness, and purpose over pride. They are growing in roles as servant leaders – the most effective kind. In this first episode of 2026, Linda interviews Krystal Parker, Founder and President of the U.S. Christian Chamber of Commerce, to discuss the rising tide of business leaders who view their role in the marketplace as a calling and mission. They are crossing cultural divides and bringing unity to diverse cross-sections of business and culture. They are redefining purpose and transforming lives.  Our nation needs mission-minded leaders now more than ever. Join us.

    New York Takes a Bite of the Big Apple – with Eric Michael Anton – [Ep. 275]

    The temptation to get something for nothing, whether it be knowledge, riches, or power has plagued individuals since the dawn of time. Examples from the Garden of Eden, Wall Street, Main Street, and election results across the country are easy to find as people long for quick-fixes and easy answers to their problems. However, history has shown us that depending on government to provide needs only leads to increased dependency and a loss of freedom. With that in mind, the focus of this episode is the recent mayoral race in New York City which has led to great speculation about the loss of liberty expected for New Yorkers if the new mayor's policies are enacted. Linda's guest, Eric Michael Anton, Senior Managing Director at Marcus & Millichap, has lived and worked in the heart of the city nearly all his life and provides first-hand insight regarding the effects of public policy on business and quality of life in the city. He also provides examples on how to support American values in a diverse, world-class city that is often polarized politically.  ©Copyright 2025, Prosperity 101, LLC __________________________________________________________ For information about our online course and other resources visit: https://prosperity101.com To order a copy of Prosperity 101 – Job Security Through Business Prosperity® by Linda J.

    The Right to Repair a Nation – Workplace Education with Purpose - with Eric M. Johnson – [Ep. 274]

How can workplace education help to repair a nation? In this episode, Linda interviews Eric M. Johnson, President & Managing Partner at Arnold Motor Supply. They discuss his commitment to internal and external advocacy regarding the impact of public policy on paychecks and why he believes it is essential to repairing our nation and preserving freedom. He shares specific examples and recommendations for employers, such as using our Breakroom Economics® course, providing optional resources for employee self-education and advocacy, and aligning with industry partners to impact elected officials. Eric also detailed the need to discuss with employees any industry-specific policy proposals, such as the Right to Repair Act, which will greatly impact vehicle owners and the automotive repair industry.

    Courage is Contagious – Silence is Not an Option – with James Staake – [Ep. 273]

    If you have ever needed a dose of courage, this episode is for you. Linda's guest, James Staake, joined the podcast with updates to the unbelievable story of cancel-culture chaos that occurred when their family business, Your American Flag Store, was censored, debanked, and nearly run out of business for simply making custom patriotic flags. Cancel culture affected millions of people over the last several years, and the example of what James and his family endured is indicative of what so many others similarly suffered. However, James chose to speak up against injustice - even when others tried to silence him. As a result, he has been able to positively impact policy in his state and around the country. James decided silence was not an option in the fight for freedom. His courage is contagious.

    A Legal Immigrant's Story – Warnings and Wisdom for America – with Rimantas Jurevicius – [Ep. 272]

    America has been blessed with legal immigrants who came willing to work, to learn the language, adapt to our culture, and to become contributing members of society. They did not come for hand-outs – they came to build a better life. The American Dream has inspired millions of native-born and immigrant citizens to flourish in freedom. Those born and raised in liberty often take it for granted, but those who have experienced tyranny know first-hand the warning signs of societal upheaval and collapse. Rimantas Jurevicius lived under Soviet rule and immigrated from Lithuania to pursue freedom and opportunity. He shares with Linda stories of persecution, survival, hope, and success, and he also shares warnings and concerns for the future of America if we do not preserve the God-given freedoms protected by our Constitution.  ©Copyright 2025, Prosperity 101, LLC __________________________________________________________ For information about our online course and other resources visit: https://prosperity101.com To order a copy of Prosperity 101 – Job Security Through Business Prosperity® by Linda J.
