    Ever notice how you can know what you need… yet still feel unable to follow through?That gap — between what you know and what you do — is almost never a mindset problem.It's a nervous system pattern.And as we head into the holidays — a time that amplifies emotional labor, invisible load, family dynamics, and patterned responsibility — your body's old beliefs tend to get louder, not quieter.Today's episode uncovers five core beliefs that keep high-achieving women stuck, not because you're doing anything wrong, but because your nervous system learned these beliefs as a way to keep you safe.Inside this episode, we explore:✔️ Why you say yes when you're already at capacity✔️ The neuroscience behind “I know better… but I still do it”✔️ The five survival beliefs your nervous system holds onto (and the unmet safety needs underneath each one)✔️ Somatically aligned reframes your body can genuinely believe, integrate, and trust✔️ Tiny nervous-system practices to shift these patterns in real time — especially during holiday stress, family pressure, or emotional overwhelmThis episode isn't about forcing confidence, using willpower, or repeating affirmations your body doesn't believe.It's about understanding your physiology — so your choices finally feel possible.Because when your nervous system feels safe?✨ Boundaries become easier.✨ Your “yes” becomes honest.✨ Your “no” becomes grounded.✨ The pressure to perform, please, and overfunction softens.✨ You move through the holidays with more clarity, calm, and capacity.If you've spent years being the dependable one… the capable one… the woman who “can handle anything”… this episode will feel like relief, recognition, and an exhale your body has been waiting for.- Join the Burnout Recovery Blueprint Waitlist!

    Achieving Reusability and Navigating Launch Failures. Eric Berger reports that in December 2015, SpaceX demonstrated reusability with the successful launch and vertical landing of the Falcon 9 Full Thrust at Landing Zone 1. The launch utilized densified propellant, requiring a tight launch window. The risky landing involved the Air Force approving a rocket with fuel returning over expensive real estate, despite concerns from groups like the National Reconnaissance Office. However, three weeks before his Mars speech, the Amos 6 satellite was violently destroyed during fueling in September 2016. Elon Musk favored an unfounded "sniper theory" to explain this failure.

    Success in business isn't just about working harder. Dr. Eugene K. Choi highlights the importance of recognizing when we're stuck in survival mode and intentionally shifting to the executive state, where creativity, empathy, and better decisions thrive. Many of us spend about 70% of our adult lives in a stress-driven survival state. Imagine the impact if leaders could operate from the executive state more often. It starts with self-awareness. Fight, flight, and freeze responses often appear subtly - as overworking, avoidance, or busywork - quietly holding leaders and teams back. In the latest episode of A Better HR Business, I speak with Dr. Eugene K. Choi, PharmD, BCPS, a neuroscience-based leadership coach, about how leaders can rewire their minds to access their best thinking and potential. We've talked about: Why most leaders unknowingly operate in a survival state and how it limits productivity. How emotional triggers sabotage decision-making and team culture. Practical neuroscience techniques - meditation, exercise, emotion-labeling—to rewire your brain and shift your mindset. P.I.E. Theory of Success: Performance, Image, and Exposure - and why the right order matters. The power of storytelling, emotional resonance, and authenticity in leadership and marketing. Strategies for breaking free from self-sabotage and building impactful habits. If you're ready to go beyond “working harder” and lead from the executive state, this episode is full of actionable tools for high-stress business environments.

    Being lost is not too uncommon for me. For one, I possess a terrible sense of direction, but the main issue stems from not knowing where I wanted to be. I applied these epiphanies to my journey in life, and the results were nothing short of phenomenal. And so in this episode, I'll share my experience on the things you can do to remain focused.Here are my 3 key takeaways:Be clear: Before I even began my journey, the goal in my mind was clear. However, what was not clear was the intention behind that goal and the problems I would face on my path there. Being able to clearly outline all these things granted me an edge when it came to overcoming obstacles in my path. Always remember: identifying the problem is half of the solution.Attentiveness is rewarded: As you cruise along in life, it becomes really easy to rely on the many conveniences and tools afforded to you. But maintaining a certain level of vigilance when it comes to progression is a trait that will only reap rewards and never cost you. I cannot stress how important it has been to check every box in your endeavors, and I believe that you will come to find the same.Ignore everything else: Achieving your goals is merely a by-product on the path to true self-mastery. However, if you cannot ignore baseless criticisms and unfounded opinions, then even that will be hard to achieve. Now, I'm not saying to simply throw every opinion out the window but maintaining a steadfast dedication to your dreams is necessary if you ever hope to achieve them.Ready to Master Your Mindset, Mission, and Message?If today's episode spoke to you, don't just listen—step behind the curtain and join the Journey Feed.

    The perfect recipe for burnout is to work in a caring profession, be a slave to perfectionism, and neglect your needs.

    How to identify and rewrite the limiting beliefs holding you back.Achieving what you want in life doesn't just hinge on what you believe about your future. According to Muriel Wilkins, it has just as much to do with what you believe about your past and present.Wilkins is an executive coach, author, and host of the HBR podcast Coaching Real Leaders. In her new book, Leadership Unblocked: Breakthrough the Beliefs that Limit Your Potential, she explains how our personal and professional blocks often stem from our own limiting beliefs about ourselves. “A belief is a story that you tell yourself,” she says, “It is the operating principle that is driving your behavior and the decisions you make.” Before we can take actions that will lead us to where we want to go, we have to uncover these hidden beliefs. Otherwise, Wilkins says, “We'll come back right to where we started. It's not just about what we do, it's about what we think about what we do that makes all the difference."In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Wilkins and host Matt Abrahams explore the three-step process of uncover, unpack, and unblock — Wilkins' method for identifying limiting beliefs, understanding how they might be shaping our behavior, and updating narratives to align with who we actually want to be.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Muriel WilkinsMuriel's Book: Leadership UnblockedEp.102 Create a Presence: How to Communicate in a Way Others Can FeelEp.98 Give It to Me Straight: How to Give Honest, Constructive Feedback  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:17) - The Seven Limiting Beliefs (04:43) - Three Steps to Becoming Unblocked (07:57) - Rethinking Values and Success (09:12) - Healthy vs. Toxic Productivity (11:56) - The Power of Mindset and Reframing (14:32) - Reverse Engineering Your Goals (17:41) - Managing Emotional Investment (21:21) - The Final Three Question (27:42) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

    I had the opportunity to sit with down with Nick McWhirter or SHM Architects to explore the nuances of transitional design, the delicate dance between modern and traditional elements, and the intentionality behind every architectural choice. From furniture-driven layouts to aspirational lighting strategies, Nick shares the thought process, research, and we discuss philosophy that transform houses into harmonious, living machines. Listeners will gain insight into how design, balance, and playfulness converge to create both beauty and functionality in contemporary residential architecture.

What makes a home truly exceptional isn't just the materials or the finishes—it's the careful orchestration of space, light, and style. In this episode, Nick breaks down his approach to transitional design, revealing how subtle choices like shutter placement, dormer adjustments, or color balance can shift a home's aesthetic from modern to traditional. The conversation spans everything from lighting plans and hidden technology to furniture-first design principles and the philosophy behind architecture as a living, breathing machine.  Of course, that idea comes from Le Corbusier and his thoughts on this very subject.  We also discuss the role of photography, the tension between realism and aspirational imagery, and the evolving vernacular of form and function in modern homes. This episode is a masterclass in thoughtful, intentional, and style-agnostic design. Topics and Ideas Introduction & Context Welcome and setup: Exploring transitional design Nick's philosophy: Style agnostic but deeply researched Transitional Design: Modern vs. Traditional Subtle moves: Shutters, dormers, cut stone, and symmetry Playfulness in design: How small details create balance Color palette: Black-and-white schemes as intentional high-contrast statements Design Process & Interior Layouts Inside-out approach: Furniture-driven architecture Achieving balanced asymmetry Experimentation and editing: Knowing when less is more Lighting as a Core Component Invisible vs. visible fixtures: Philosophy of recessed lighting Lighting as both function and art Integration with technology: Wi-Fi, AV, and smart home systems Photography, Aspirational Design & Reality Balancing reality and idealized imagery in marketing Photoshop as a tool to highlight design intent How photography conveys quality of light, space, and atmosphere Form Follows Function & Architectural Philosophy Homes as “machines for living” The role of beauty and human experience in architecture Historical perspective: Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright, and modern vernacular Outdoor Spaces & Technology Integration Creative solutions: Two TVs on a patio LED walls and emerging tech as part of design storytelling Closing Thoughts & Personal Insights The freedom in design: Few right or wrong answers Nick's passion for music, smoked meats, and lifestyle influence Preview of future conversations and projects Thank you, Nick for the time and conversation.

    In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews John Ferguson, founder of Hobart Gutter Guard Co., shares his journey from working in community services to building a $500K lifestyle business. Starting as a side hustle in 2018, he grew the company through smart systems, clear SOPs, and delegation. By hiring a virtual assistant and automating operations, John reduced his workload to just two hours a week. After selling half the business, he now focuses on expanding the model across Australia. His story is a powerful example of how vision, structure, and marketing mastery can turn a small local business into a scalable success. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to John Ferguson, the hardest thing in growing a small business is the isolation and loneliness that come with being a solopreneur. He explained that working alone – especially on tasks like marketing, sales copy, and SEO—can feel isolating because there's no one to share wins or frustrations with. That lack of daily collaboration makes it challenging to stay motivated and balanced while managing all aspects of the business. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? John Ferguson mentioned that his favorite business book that helped him the most is "Sell Like Crazy" by Sabri Suby. He said it's the best sales book he's ever read, providing powerful insights into marketing, sales psychology, and conversion strategies. The book helped him sharpen his approach to attracting and converting customers, which played a key role in growing Hobart Gutter Guard Co. into a highly profitable business. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? John Ferguson recommends listening to SEO and Google Ads podcasts to stay sharp on digital marketing, as these have been key in his business growth. He also listens to the Grow a Small Business Podcast and other interview-style shows to learn from real entrepreneurs' journeys. For learning, he prefers YouTube tutorials and audiobooks over formal courses, as they allow him to study while working or driving. Ferguson believes that consistent self-learning through podcasts and online resources is essential for any small business owner wanting to improve marketing, systems, and overall growth. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? John Ferguson recommends using a CRM and pipeline management tool as the most powerful resource for growing a small business. He believes having an all-in-one platform that combines lead tracking, automation, and communication can completely transform operations. Instead of juggling multiple apps, a single integrated system helps manage customers, streamline workflows, and improve response times, especially for service-based businesses. Ferguson credits this approach for saving him hours of manual work each week and making his business more efficient, scalable, and profitable. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? John Ferguson's advice to his day-one self would be to keep everything simple — from the business model and offer to the systems and operations. He believes simplicity creates clarity, reduces stress, and makes scaling easier. Ferguson explained that many entrepreneurs overcomplicate their processes with unnecessary tools and jargon, which slows growth. His biggest lesson is that a simple, repeatable system and a clear vision are far more powerful than a complex setup, and that focusing on doing the basics exceptionally well is the real key to long-term success.
