As the missing 18-year-old's family celebrated his 19th birthday without him, investigation records were released publicly, describing the efforts to find him.

Menopause fitness researchers can help you separate the science from the endless stream of fitness advice aimed at women in midlife. But here's the catch: even highly respected researchers don't always agree, and that doesn't necessarily mean someone is wrong. In this episode, you'll meet several leading voices, learn where their research overlaps and differs, and get a better filter for deciding what deserves your attention. The goal isn't to blindly follow an expert—it's to become a smarter consumer of fitness information. By the end, you'll know exactly how to use menopause fitness researchers as a guide without letting another expert—or another viral post—do your thinking for you. If this episode made you flip your workout routine — share it!

In this episode, I'm joined by intuitive drinking coach Colleen Freeland for a conversation about the emotional reasons so many women turn to alcohol. We talk about why drinking has become so normalized, how wine can quietly become a coping mechanism, the connection between loneliness, stress, and overdrinking, and why true change isn't about willpower; it's about understanding what's really driving the habit. If you've ever questioned your relationship with alcohol or felt stuck in patterns you can't seem to break, this conversation offers a different perspective.For more on Colleen, follow her on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehangoverwhisperer Website: https://emotionalsobrietycoaching.com/ Listen to her podcast, ‘It's Not About The Alcohol': https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/its-not-about-the-alcohol/id1654335817 Thanks to my Sponsors:Honeylove: Save 20% off Honeylove by going to honeylove.com/OVER50 #honeylovepodLola Blankets: Get 40% off select Lola Blankets products at Lolablankets.com by using code FLOURISHING at checkout.

We're back from our mid season break and recording new episodes of Story x Story! This week, Nigel and Tazziii dive deep into Toy Story 5 (starting at 28:26), asking the big question a fifth film has to answer: after 30+ years, does this franchise still have something new to say…and does this sequel justify its existence?We dig into the film's shift in focus as Jessie takes centre stage, and Bonnie's journey through a digital world with devices that are taking the place of traditional toys and imaginative play. From there, we unpack how the story deals with its “villains”, whether it's the devices themselves, cyberbullying, and the way tech reshapes childhood.This week's storytelling tip is about executing on your story's thematic question: committing to what your narrative is trying to argue, and following that idea through to an earned payoff.Other stories we're enjoying include: The Disappearances of Lydia Fontaine (Audiobook), The Little Serpent and the Wings of Night (Book), The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King (Book), Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective (Crunchyroll), Gachikuta (Crunchyroll), Angel's Egg (Cinema), The Alloy of Law (Book), The Odyssey (Cinema), Disco Elysium (Steam), Dragon Striker (Disney+).Connect with mayamadamayamada is a manga brand and mission-driven creative agency all about equipping young and aspiring creatives to thrive on the creative journey - whether they're discovering what's possible, developing new skills, or sharing expertise with the next generation.Website: https://mayamada.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mayamadatvTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mayamadatvBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/mayamada.comYouTube: https://youtube.com/mayamadatvTwitch: https://www.twitch.tv/mayamadaJoin our Studio77 community on Discord to connect with other creatives and be part of the journey https://discord.gg/b5fmnuT

More exercise can backfire—especially if you're in perimenopause or postmenopause and wondering why the workouts that once worked now leave you sore, exhausted, or stuck. In this re-release of one of our most talked-about episodes from January 2026, let's freshen our minds on the science behind why recovery, not simply working harder, becomes the key to building strength after 50. Estrogen influences your muscles, connective tissue, collagen, and energy production—and why those changes require a smarter training strategy. If you've been questioning whether you're doing something wrong, this episode will remind you that your body isn't broken; it's simply asking for a different approach. More exercise can backfire, but the right strategy can help you recover better, stay stronger, and keep doing what you love for years to come.

In 2003, Aron Ralston became trapped beneath an 800-pound boulder in Utah's Blue John Canyon after setting out alone without telling anyone where he was going. After 127 hours with no hope of rescue, he faced an unimaginable choice: die in the canyon or amputate his own arm to survive. COME SEE US ON TOUR!

We should be posted up in ATL right now, sis, gearing up for the Woman Evolve Conference. Instead, we're home—and if that's got you in your feelings, our girl SJR says keep the pity party short. And we mean short, short! ‘Cause this “off” season we're all side-eyeing is still an opportunity to respond to God's call. In this episode, we're revisiting a powerful testimony from Christine Caine at last year's conference. She took us back to a story we can't ignore. Chile…y'all remember Lot's wife?

Paid media is getting more expensive and less predictable. So what do you do instead? Kaitlin Bitting just joined Alloy as Director of Marketing, and she comes with agency experience, time at Campbell's Soup, and a front-row seat inside another major fitness franchise. Rick Mayo brought her on the podcast six weeks into the job, and the conversation landed somewhere useful: three organic marketing tactics that franchisees can start executing this week without touching their ad budget. The first is community partnerships, done right. Not the kind where you slap a flyer in someone's window and call it a day. Rick's Fleet Feet playbook is the template: leverage each other's email lists, put physical presence in each other's locations for 30 days, run a joint educational event, and track everything with a unique QR code. One campaign generated 60 leads and 40 new members. The second is referrals, which convert at 90% and most owners still never ask for. The third is Google Business Profile, which 76% of customers check before they ever visit a location, and which now influences how LLMs surface your business in AI search results. Rick also shares what happened when someone left a scathing review for a location they had never visited, and why the response he wrote became one of his better PR moments. Playbooks for all three are on the way for Alloy franchisees. This episode is the preview.Key Takeaways: 00:00 The Referral Conversion Rate Is 90% 00:38 Welcome Kaitlin Bitting, Director of Marketing 02:54 Kaitlin Bitting's Background: Agency, Campbell's, Fitness Franchise 04:32 Why Alloy's Model Stood Out 06:54 Why Organic Marketing Matters More Now 08:12 Strategy 1: Community Partnerships 09:46 Make It Mutually Beneficial or Do Not Bother 10:00 The Fleet Feet Playbook: 3 Steps, 60 Leads, 40 New Members 16:00 Build a Partnership Calendar for the Year 19:00 Track Every Partnership with a Unique QR Code 20:00 Playbooks Are Coming for Alloy Franchisees 21:14 Strategy 2: Referrals 23:46 Ask at the Moment They Sign Up 25:38 John Herrera's Presale: One Third of 150 Members from Referrals 26:54 Joe: The Best Referral Culture We've Ever Seen 30:16 You Are 20% More Likely to Stick If a Friend Is in the Program 33:34 Strategy 3: Google Reviews and Google Business Profile 35:24 Respond to 75% of Reviews and Your Rating Jumps Half a Star 38:46 The Fake Negative Review Rick Turned Into a PR Win 40:40 Treat Google Business Profile Like a Social Media Account 43:42 LLMs Are Pulling from Google.

This week Kail sits down with country artist Elijah Scott—the singer, not her baby daddy after a viral internet mix-up convinced millions they share a child. Elijah explains how the confusion reached his actual family, why one of Kail's sons made the rumor surprisingly believable, and how a random DM turned into this episode.They also talk about his unexpected rise from karaoke to millions of streams, navigating country music as an artist who doesn't fit the industry's traditional image, life on tour, and the consistency it takes to turn viral attention into a real career.Follow the REAL Elijah Scott Williams on Tik Tok , YouTube, Spotify and InstagramGet your Fatherless Behavior Tour Tickets HereFor full video episodes head to patreon.com/kaillowryThanks for supporting the show by checking out the sponsors!Talkiatry: Head to Talkiatry.com/famous and complete the short assessment to get matched with an in‑network psychiatrist in just a few minutes.To find the right home for you head to apartments.comBoll And Branch: For a limited time get 20% off, plus free shipping on your first set of sheets at bollandbranch.com/barelyfamous use code barelyfamousAlloy: Join the 95% of women who tried Alloy and saw relief in the first 2 weeks.

After more than three decades in the fitness industry, Rick Mayo has learned that sustainable franchise growth isn't built on chasing every new marketing trend, it's built on consistency, diversification, and a clear brand strategy.In this episode of The Art of Franchise Marketing, Erin Martin sits down with the Founder and CEO of Alloy Personal Training to explore how a single personal training studio evolved into a franchise brand with more than 400 locations. Rick shares the lessons he's learned from operating independent gyms, powering major fitness brands behind the scenes, and ultimately launching Alloy as its own franchise system.The conversation dives into why many brands become "drunk on digital," the continued importance of grassroots marketing and strategic partnerships, and how Alloy balances national marketing with local execution. Rick also discusses the systems his team uses to measure marketing performance, how AI is influencing the future of franchise marketing, and why podcasting has become a valuable tool for franchise development.
Host Eric Lanke welcomes Ehren Polheber, corporate fluid power engineer at Scot Forge, to discuss how material science and selection affect hydraulic systems and fluid power component manufacturing. Polheber shares his 22-year fluid power background and 14-year tenure designing and troubleshooting large forging equipment, and explains that correct material grades and heat treatments are critical to avoid catastrophic failures under high loads while enabling lightweight designs in mobile equipment. He outlines a selection process based on applied loads, operating conditions (fatigue, temperature, corrosion), trade-offs (strength, machinability), and cost of ownership, noting that supplier-customer collaboration is essential. The episode compares casting and forging: castings offer near-net complex shapes at lower cost, while forgings reduce porosity and align grain flow for high-stress, mission-critical hydraulic applications.

July is the slowest month in fitness. Everyone knows it. The question is what you do about it. Rick Mayo and Matt Helland sit back down in the Beats Lab for one of their unscripted conversations about what it actually looks like to run a great personal training studio when the season is working against you. No guest, no slides, just two people who have been doing this for decades talking through what works. They get into three things you can start doing right now: getting ahead of your members before their schedules fall apart, running a student and teacher special that brings new people in the door at exactly the right time, and a social campaign called Where's Waldo that one of Alloy's top franchisees has turned into one of the best retention and culture tools in the system. Rick also tells the story of Kathy — a client who sat across from him every month for the better part of a year, never once followed his advice, and still became one of his clearest examples of why showing up for people is the whole job. Listen in. You can start using all of this the day you hear it.

JP Middleton started his company out of his mom's basement at 21. No clients, no experience, and no idea what he was getting into. Eight years later, Gym Members Now is a seven-figure operation working with hundreds of fitness businesses, and JP just joined the Alloy vendor network. In this episode, Alloy founder Rick Mayo sits down with JP to find out what GMN actually does differently. The answer is not the ads. It is everything that happens before and after the ads that most marketing vendors completely ignore: activating dead leads in your existing database, answering missed calls with AI, chasing reviews and turning them into referrals, and following up with new leads within five minutes instead of the industry average of 42 hours. JP also breaks down the three things that genuinely set GMN apart, why word of mouth is still the only real proof that your business is working, and what he learned about fitness marketing from working inside chiropractic offices, med spas, and roofing companies. If you are an Alloy franchisee or an independent gym owner wondering why your marketing spend is not converting, this episode has your answer. Listen in to find out what a real lead-to-member system looks like.

Muscle loss and sarcopenia have been synonymous with aging in previous generations. Muscle loss impacts osteoporosis, balance, stability, independence, and hormone balance. In this episode we'll talk about the 3 M's and how to bank muscle looking forward to a time off your fee as well as how to get it back if you have muscle loss and sarcopenia. My Guest: Dr. Chris Meletis is an internationally recognized educator, author, lecturer, and functional medicine practitioner with more than 33 years of clinical experience. He has authored 18 books and over 200 scientific articles, contributing extensively to the fields of naturopathic and integrative medicine. Formerly the Dean of Naturopathic Medicine and Chief Medical Officer at the National College of Naturopathic Medicine, he was honored as Physician of the Year by the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians. Passionate about accessible healthcare, he helped establish 16 free natural medicine clinics and continues to focus on the GI microbiome, mitochondrial health, nutritional biochemistry, and botanical medicine. Questions We Answer in This Episode: What trends have you seen in aging, and why does muscle become such a critical issue for women in midlife and beyond? Are physicians beginning to use muscle-related assessments as vital signs, and should strength be monitored more routinely as we age? What does grip strength actually measure, and why is it such a powerful indicator of overall strength and future health? What happens when you need a bunion surgery, joint replacement, or another procedure that temporarily limits activity? Will you lose muscle, and how can you prepare for it? If you're told to lose weight before a knee or hip replacement, how do you protect muscle mass while improving your health outcomes? Are we eating enough protein, and is our digestion allowing us to actually absorb and utilize it as we age? How can muscle-support strategies help during periods of bed rest, illness, pain, long COVID, or other situations that increase the risk of sarcopenia? What should active women do when they're already exercising but still struggle with maintaining muscle, energy, or lean body mass? If this episode made you flip your workout routine — share it!

The Psychology of Self-Injury: Exploring Self-Harm & Mental Health
How are scars from nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) different than physical scars that are unintentional or result from non-self-inflicted wounds ? What psychological effects can result from daily reminders of one's own decision to self-harm? Is there an association between NSSI scars and suicidal thoughts and behaviors? In this episode, Dr. Burke discusses the mixed relationship that many people who self-injure have with the scars they bear from NSSI and how some may feel the need to hide their scars even from themselves.

Here's What Research Says A woman in our community recently shared that she was thrilled with the results she was experiencing in the program. It was impressive, and honestly a surprise, even to me. She'd lost like 11 lbs and significant inches. She explained just before joining she had done a program built around HIIT. No doubt it was promised as a weight loss program. Because HIIT is supposed to burn fat. Visceral belly fat in fact, the worst kind. Clearly not in this case. Not to scare you off from HIIT. There is a right time for it. But this episode highlights when and why so much of what you “hear” or are sold just may not work for you! Influencers gonna influence. They share what works for them, often what they've heard, not studied, applied and tested on hundreds or thousands of people just like you, living real life with real life obligations.

What happens when a franchisor and its franchisees are both running ads at the same time, targeting the same people? In this episode, Alloy founder Rick Mayo sits down with Aren Johnstone, CEO of Franchise Ramp, to talk about one of the most misunderstood problems in franchise marketing: duplicate spend. Aren breaks down why national and local budgets so often work against each other, what a properly divided marketing funnel actually looks like, and how Franchise Ramp built a system that makes every dollar, national and local, work harder. Aren also shares how he got his start buying an e-commerce business his senior year of high school, why he eventually left that world for franchising, and what Franchise Ramp's no-contract model says about where their confidence comes from. If you are an Alloy franchisee, a prospective owner, or just trying to understand where your brand fund actually goes, this episode gives you a clear answer.

Jimmy has built nearly 700 websites over 25 years and built one of the first franchise analytics dashboards in the industry. He knows what works and more importantly, why. They cover how to design for different buyer personas, why time-on-site has dropped from three minutes to under one, how the back end of your site can quietly kill your marketing results, and why building for function before beauty is almost always the right call. If you run a franchise location or are evaluating the performance of your brand's web presence, this one is worth your time.

After 30+ years of bootstrapping Alloy Franchise to over 135 locations, founder Rick Mayo finally decided to bring in a private equity partner—but not for the reasons you might think. In this candid conversation with Eric Malzone, Rick opens up about why he chose Capital Spring, how he avoided the "gunslinging" PE horror stories, and why pulling some chips off the table actually gave him more clarity, not less. He breaks down the deceptively simple model behind Alloy's 91% retention rate, explains why saying "no" to flashy trends (GLP-1s, saunas, meal delivery) has been the secret to scaling, and reveals how he thinks about integrating adjacent services without muddying the core business. If you're a franchise operator, founder considering outside capital, or just someone who wants to know what actually works after three decades in the trenches, this one's for you. Key Takeaways:
This episode focuses on how we feel in our skin and how we take care of our skin. After our HonestAF Show Listeners were asking about our Day and Night Skincare routines, we have obliged and laid out our full current routines. A quick description - Daniella's routine at this time is heavily based on Korean Beauty and her Alloy products. Her morning routine begins with the Zipp device using a Korean Beauty balm as a conduit. Then she layers moisturizers and finishes with a tinted sunscreen serum. Barbaranne's am routine begins with cleansing and a Vitamin C serum, moisturizer, One Skin eye cream and always tinted mineral sunscreen. Both ladies use Makeup Erasers to cleanse their skin and remove makeup and sunscreen in the evening. They differ in a few of their products but both cannot live without their Fascia Blasters and OneSkin for the Body (a total game changer) and use more emollient products for nighttime skin restoration and repair but they both are also obsessed with Inner Beauty's doctor developed, clinically backed, prescription Anti-Aging Face Cream with Estriol, Tretinoin and Niacinamide. Watch YouTube to see both their full routines. There's a new FlicsAF which leads to a humerous conversation about dating amongst people with great age differences. We want to know what you think.

Have you noticed how every week brings a new headline about AI driven fraud, yet it still feels hard to tell what is real risk and what is noise? In this Tech Talks Daily episode, I'm joined by Tommy Nicholas, CEO of Alloy, for a candid conversation that cuts through the fear driven commentary and gets into what fraud teams are actually dealing with right now. We start with a simple but important distinction that gets blurred all the time. Tommy separates classic "fraud," where institutions take the hit, from "scams," where individuals are manipulated into handing over money or access. That framing changes how you think about solutions, accountability, and where AI is making things worse. Tommy also shares why he believes fraud losses are often massively underreported. It is not because people are trying to hide the truth, it is because organizations rarely have a single, clean view of losses across every product line and channel. Add messy labeling, split ownership across teams, and reporting becomes a best effort estimate rather than an objective number. That reality matters if you're building board level narratives, budgets, or risk models on top of survey data. From there, we talk about what organizations are getting right. Tommy argues there is no magical "undetectable" attack that forces teams to give up, but there is a very real breakdown happening in old fallbacks, especially human review of images and video. The bigger shift he sees is banks and fintechs finally pushing for consistent tooling across every channel, web, mobile, branch, call center, support tickets, because fraud does not respect internal org charts. We then get into why Alloy's AI Assistant is an interesting signal for where agentic AI is heading in regulated work. Tommy explains that agents are only useful when they have rigorous context, strong sources of truth, and clear workflows. Otherwise they guess, and "looks good" is not the same as "safe to run in production." He also lays out where agents can genuinely outperform humans, like scaling investigations during sudden surges, while keeping processes auditable and repeatable. We close by looking ahead at agentic commerce, and why Tommy thinks the breakthrough will arrive through weird, emergent behavior rather than a neat protocol roll out. When you listen back, do you think the next big leap in fraud prevention will come from better models, better data, or better operational discipline, and what would you bet on if your own customers were the ones on the line?
