Adopting a plant-based diet is a trend that continues to grow in popularity. However, for people focused on muscle growth and strength due to their athletic pursuits, there may be concerns about whether their muscle development and sports performance are being compromised by eating predominantly protein from plant foods. In this podcast episode, I'll explore the fundamental differences between animal and plant-based proteins, discuss the primary supplements available for each type, and review recent research on the effect of these different protein sources on muscle growth, strength and physical performance.Links referred to in the podcastSystematic review of animal vs plant protein on muscle mass, strength and physical performance https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39813010Episode transcriptTo access the full episode transcript, go to the following link and select the individual podcast episode and then click on the ‘Transcript' tab https://thinkingnutrition.buzzsprout.comConnect with meInstagram: doctimcroweFacebook: Thinking NutritionTwitter: CroweTim

Neil addresses the common feelings of being lost and purposeless that many listeners have expressed after the previous episode. Neil shares a powerful technique to shift one's mindset by changing body posture. He emphasises the connection between body and mind, encouraging listeners to adopt a victorious stance to boost their confidence and energy. By engaging in this simple yet effective practice, Neil aims to help listeners take control of their emotions and set a positive tone for their day. KEY TAKEAWAYS Mind-Body Connection: The relationship between the mind and body is interconnected; changing your posture can significantly influence your mental state. Adopting a confident stance can help shift feelings of depression or lethargy. Victory Posture Exercise: To improve your mood and energy, practice standing tall with your arms raised in a victory pose. This physical change can evoke feelings of success and confidence, helping to combat negative thoughts. Morning Rituals Matter: Establishing a positive morning routine is crucial. Avoid hitting the snooze button, make your bed, and start your day with a winner's mindset to set a productive tone for the rest of the day. Behaviour Influences Mood: Your actions and how you present yourself can dictate your feelings. Slouching or dressing in a sloppy manner can lead to a negative mindset, while adopting a more active and positive demeanour can enhance motivation. Consistency is Key: Regularly practising these techniques can lead to lasting changes in your mindset and overall well-being. Make it a habit to shift your state and embrace a winner's mentality to improve your life and business. BEST MOMENTS "Where the mind goes, the body follows. And where the body follows, the mind follows in turn." "This is a really simple, extremely powerful tool that can change everything in just a moment or three." "Your behavior is dictating how you're going to feel. How can you be positive and motivated if you're just slobbing around?" "If you didn't do it, get off your butt and do it now. Repeat it. Repeat. Repeat." "Winners don't slob like that. It's not going to happen."

In this episode of the SEO Leverage Podcast, Gert Mellak sits down with Joseph Armstrong, founder of 90 Day Korean, to dive into a story every digital entrepreneur dreads: losing 70% of website traffic overnight. Joseph shares the raw reality of what happened during a devastating Google core update in 2019, how it put his entire business at risk, and how the SEO Leverage team helped turn things around — fast. Within just three weeks, the site had fully recovered, and from there, it doubled its traffic and increased conversions. But this episode is more than just a recovery story. You'll learn: ✅ How to build a resilient online course business over time ✅ The power of internal linking, user experience, and smart content organization ✅ How Joseph evolved 90 Day Korean into a global membership platform ✅ What most course creators get wrong when scaling ✅ How AI and team feedback shape their content and support systems ✅ Why regular customer interviews became a turning point in product development Whether you're a course creator, marketer, or SEO enthusiast, this conversation is packed with real talk, strategic insights, and behind-the-scenes lessons from a founder who's been through the storm — and came out stronger. Podcast Highlights: 05:59 – 06:30 - We Lost 70% of Our Traffic Overnight Joseph shares the gut-wrenching moment when a Google core update wiped out the majority of 90 Day Korean's traffic — a situation many online businesses fear. It instantly raises the stakes and gives the conversation emotional depth and urgency. 07:10 – 08:27 - The SEO Recovery That Took Just 3 Weeks After connecting with Gert, Joseph implemented a focused SEO action plan and fully recovered rankings in just three weeks. This segment shows the real-world power of expert SEO, structured workflows, and quick execution. 09:53 – 11:50 - The Power of Internal Linking and Content Cleanup Joseph and Gert unpack how rethinking internal linking and removing redundant pages helped clarify the site's structure — improving both SEO and user experience. It's a golden nugget for content-heavy websites. 36:43 – 38:16 - Why Customer Interviews Changed the Game Joseph reveals how regularly talking to customers uncovered gaps in the product and guided critical improvements. This is a practical, often-overlooked growth tactic for course creators and SaaS founders. 27:22 – 30:19 - Adopting an AI-First Mindset (Without Losing the Human Touch) Joseph discusses how his team uses AI for support, content structure, and message clarity — while still relying on human review.

Edinburgh's Unruly Women: Gender, Discipline, and Power, 1560-1660 (Routledge, 2024) examines experiences of church discipline across parish communities through Edinburgh and its environs. The book argues that experiences of discipline were not universal, varying according to any number of factors such as age, gender, marital status, and social rank. Adopting a case study approach, the book illuminates the voices of ordinary women as they appeared before their local kirk session (church court) where they navigated the church court system to settle neighbourly disputes, negotiate marriage contracts, or free their husbands from allegations of adultery. Edinburgh's Unruly Women argues that in the context of a deeply patriarchal society, experiences of discipline could not have been universal, but that in creating this strict culture of self-monitoring, the Church created opportunities for women to express power over one another, and indeed, over their male contemporaries. By placing female parishioners at the heart of the book, filled with individual case studies, Edinburgh's Unruly Women appeals to students and scholars of early modern women, religion, and gender more broadly, and to those with more specialist interest in both ecclesiastical discipline and the history of early modern Scotland in the localities.

Welcome back to the What to Expect While Fostering and Adopting podcast! I'm Christine Marie — adoptive mom, former foster parent, and biblical mindset coach — and today's guest is someone whose voice and impact in the foster care space cannot be overstated. I'm honored to sit down with Dr. John DeGarmo, founder and director of The Foster Care Institute, international speaker, best-selling author of 10 books, and foster/adoptive dad to over 60 children. Dr. DeGarmo has worked alongside child welfare agencies across the globe and is a leading voice for system change and trauma-informed parenting. In this conversation, we dive into the realities of foster care that few are willing to talk about — from the mental health crisis and over-medication of foster youth to the growing burnout among caregivers. We also talk about practical tools and mindsets that can help foster and adoptive parents stay grounded, effective, and full of hope even in the hardest seasons. Whether you're currently fostering, considering it, or simply want to better support foster families in your community, this episode is packed with insight, encouragement, and truth. ☕ So grab your coffee, get comfy, and let's dig in. XO, Christine Marie

I'm a strong believer that you should sell to B2B buyers the same way you sell to B2C prospects. If you don't believe this, you should listen to this conversation with B2C expert, Josh Koplin. He's here to share why B2B prospects want the same experience as B2C customers and how you can give it to them.Meet Josh KoplinAs Co-founder and CRO of EDEN, a home services SaaS startup, Joshua Koplin spearheads the company's mission to equip contractors with innovative technology, fostering business growth and exceptional customer experiences. His extensive experience in finance, innovation, and business development includes leading the IPO for Japan's largest renewable energy developer, RENOVA Inc., and previous roles in investment banking and M&A at J.P. Morgan.Adopting a B2C Experience into the B2B WorldThe B2B prospects in the fancy offices are also the same ones doing B2C buying. They see what it takes to make someone buy, and they want that same experience when a B2B seller is offering them a service or product.Josh shares how his company is modernizing the sales process to provide instant gratification. He studies what consumers want and applies that knowledge to the HVAC and home services space.Overcoming Pricing ChallengesIn the B2C world, the price of a product or service is right there in your face. However, it's often hidden in the B2B world. Josh shares that online pricing is often the first thing on a buyer's priority list, and they will have this in mind when searching for a product. Adopting upfront pricing allows a B2B consumer to feel more comfortable about their buying decision.He also explains why it's still essential for sellers to include the benefits of a product along with the pricing to provide a better experience for those in the B2B world.AI Search Changing Both WorldsIn the B2C and B2B worlds, AI has completely changed the way we look for information on Google. Before you can even scroll down, you see AI gathering the data you need.It makes old-school SEO methods obsolete, so how can you ensure your business still reaches the ranks?Josh shares that the best thing for B2B sellers to do is to put their "kitchen table conversations" online. This is where you act as the consultant and listen to your customers' pain points, needs, and wants. You provide everything they need to know to help them make informed decisions.Josh also goes into what zero-click searches are and how they are affecting the B2B world.“AI search and consumers are turning more towards the kitchen table conversations online. The more helpful you are, the greater the chance of conversation from consumers.” - Josh Koplin.

Workplace flexibility has evolved from a niche benefit to a business imperative, driven by the pandemic's acceleration of remote work and changing employee expectations. Manar Morales, a leading authority on workplace transformation, emphasizes that true flexibility goes beyond location—it includes flexible hours, reduced schedules, and a fundamental shift in how organizations value presence, performance, and purpose. Her insights underscore that flexibility, when done intentionally and inclusively, leads to greater employee engagement, retention, and innovation. Morales introduces a comprehensive strategy for embedding flexibility into workplace culture through her Flex Success Framework, which includes reflecting on purpose, reimagining flexibility, redesigning policies, reintegrating them into culture, and reinforcing success through measurement. She advocates for a “return on experience” (ROE) mindset, encouraging both leaders and employees to prioritize meaningful, impactful engagement over outdated notions of presenteeism. Flexibility is not a compromise—it's a competitive advantage when aligned with core values and supported by thoughtful leadership. To dive deeper into how organizations can thrive by embracing human-centric flexibility, explore Manar Morales' groundbreaking book, The Flexibility Paradigm: Humanizing the Workplace for Productivity, Profitability, and Possibility.
