    Creepy crawly season is upon us, Short Wavers! We're welcoming fall with a contemplation of fear and anxiety. In human history, fear kept us safe. It helped us flee from predators. Anxiety made us wary of potential dangers — like venturing into a known lion-infested area. But what happens when these feelings get out of hand in humans today? And why do some of us crave that feeling from scary movies or haunted houses?For answers, we talk to Arash Javanbakht, a psychiatrist from Wayne State University. He likes studying fear so much he wrote a whole book called Afraid. In this episode, Javanbakht gets into the differences between fear and anxiety, many of the reasons people feel afraid and why things like scary movies could even be therapeutic.

    If you are one of the many subscribers to the Peloton exercise/media network, you may already be familiar with Kendall Toole. For many years, she was one of the stars of Peloton, exhorting users to push themselves harder, sweat more, and pursue their goals. In those cases, Kendall was positive, cheerful, always with a smile and kind words. But people are complicated and the truth is that Kendall has faced many mental health issues over the course of her life, including depression, anxiety, OCD, and suicidality. She's in a better place now (she considers her conditions to be not cured but managed) but in an honest and moving interview, Kendall tells of her brush with suicidal ideation in college, her long stretch of depression that followed, and the words of her father that helped pull her toward a better place. You're knocked down, he said, but never knocked out.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

    What if you were doing everything right? Tracking your macros, lifting weights, eating clean and your body still felt inflamed, puffy, and broken?  That was Annie Kundis's reality. A former bodybuilder and competitive powerlifter turned mom and influencer, Annie spent over a decade following every fitness rule in the book only to watch her energy crash, her digestion spiral, and her confidence disappear. In this episode, Annie shares how DUTCH and GI-MAP testing completely changed her life after years of feeling dismissed by traditional doctors who told her to “just eat less and exercise more.” For the first time, real data revealed what was actually happening: low hormones, flipped cortisol, gut infections, and nutrient malabsorption. With that clarity, Annie finally had a roadmap for healing, not more restriction. She opens up about pressing pause on hard training, cutting caffeine, and learning to rest without guilt, plus the simple protocols that led to her first regular digestion in over a decade. We also dive into the emotional side: body dysmorphia, burnout, and rebuilding self-trust after years of fighting her body. Annie's story is raw, hopeful, and deeply relatable, showing that healing isn't about perfection, it's about understanding your body and giving it what it truly needs. If you've ever felt inflamed, exhausted, or unseen by the medical system, this episode will hit home. Tune in to hear how Annie went from survival mode to thriving and why she says today, “I don't feel sick anymore. I finally feel free.” Time Stamps: (3:22) Annie's Health Journey Before Vital Spark(9:37) Navigating Depression(12:52) GI Map and DUTCH Test Results(16:22) Learning To Slow Down(21:12) Trusting The Process(32:59) Where To Find Annie---------------------Follow Annie on Instagram: @ohannieruth Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

Many individuals have been conditioned to believe that anxiety is a lifelong companion—something to manage rather than fully overcome. I explore this notion, suggesting that the path to serenity lies not just in coping, but in unlearning the ingrained behaviors and responses that elevate our anxiety levels.I pose an essential question: what if coping, while useful, perpetuates our anxiety longer than necessary? We often adopt distraction techniques or shallow breathing as quick fixes, but these merely mask the root issues of our anxiety. It's time to recognize that anxiety isn't an inherent part of our identity, but a response to learned experiences. Each of us has the power to unlearn those responses and free ourselves from their persistent grip, allowing space for a calmer existence.Throughout our discussion, I emphasize the power of rewiring our minds. I encourage listeners to recall moments of realization that challenge long-held beliefs—those “aha” moments where understanding sparks change. We unpack how anxiety often stems not just from specific triggers, but from our learned responses to those triggers. This understanding is integral to the unlearning process. Instead of simply coping with anxiety—like wearing earplugs to muffle a smoke alarm—we can address the underlying alarm itself.#AnxietyCoach #UnlearnAnxiety #AnxietyRelief #BeyondCoping #RewireYourBrain #MentalWellness #MindfulLiving #PatternInterrupt #StressManagement #Neuroplasticity #HealAnxiety #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #CalmResponse #OvercomeFear #EmotionalFreedom #Reframing #TheAnxietyCoachesPodcast #UnlearningInventory #OldProgram #FixTheAlarm #PavingANewRoad #WormholeAnxiety #MeetThemDifferently #MindfulObservation #PauseAndRespond #ReframeTheNarrative #PathBeyondCoping #FreedomFromFear #ChoosePeace #EmotionalResilience #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Pastor walks us through how worry divides, worry subtracts, and Jesus adds.    Questions for this week:  - What does Paul mean when he says to "take every thought captive to Christ"? What are the effects of allowing thoughts to run wild?   - How does worry play out like functional atheism in our lives?   - Why do you think Jesus ended His discussion on worry with these words, “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble”? How is it meant to bring you comfort?

    I Got Punched for a Living: Why Cold Calling Isn’t Scary

    Sales Gravy: Jeb Blount

    Play Episode Listen Later Oct 3, 2025 37:00


    Cold calling terrifies most salespeople more than losing their biggest account. The rejection. The hang-ups. The voice telling you that you're bothering people who don't want to hear from you. Before transitioning into sales, Steve Munn spent nine years as a professional hockey defenseman. As a hockey player, his job was to make life difficult for the other team and absorb whatever they dished back.  "Part of it was getting punched in the face," he said on a recent episode of the Sales Gravy Podcast. "If I get a no from a prospect, that's maybe a bad day, but it's certainly not as bad as getting a concussion or a broken nose again." That perspective shift, understanding what actually constitutes a threat, changes everything about how you approach cold calling. It goes beyond being tougher or having thicker skin. Your Fear Isn't About the Call Most sales professionals will do anything to avoid call blocks. They'll update their CRM. Reorganize their pipeline. Respond to emails that could wait three days. Anything but pick up the phone. The problem isn't the person on the other end of the line. You don't want to be the one who fumbles, doesn't have the right answer, or proves you don't belong in that conversation. Imposter syndrome thrives in sales because every call is another opportunity to prosecute yourself. Every objection becomes evidence that you're not cut out for this. Every hang-up confirms what you secretly suspected: You're bothering people who have better things to do. That internal narrative is all in your head, and it's costing you deals. Get Your Mind Right First You can't make effective cold calls when you're living in your head. Anxiety, overthinking, or trying to sound perfect makes every conversation feel forced. Nothing bad actually happens on a sales call. Your life isn't in danger, and a hung-up phone or curt “not interested” barely registers as a problem. The best cold callers aren't fearless. They're prepared mentally before they start dialing. Find what gets you into the right frame of mind: review recent wins, remind yourself that you're solving real problems, or call a colleague for perspective. The goal is connecting with another human, not executing a perfect pitch. People can tell the difference. Separate Message From Delivery When someone says "we're all set" and hangs up, they're not making a judgment about your worth as a salesperson or a human being. They're communicating one thing: They're not interested right now. The delivery might feel harsh, and the tone might sound dismissive. But the message is simple and impersonal. Athletes learn this early. Coaches scream. Teammates criticize. Opponents talk trash. If you react emotionally to how something is said rather than hearing what's actually being communicated, you become ineffective. In sales, the same principle applies. When you stop taking the delivery personally, you can actually hear what's being said. Sometimes what sounds like a hard no is actually "you haven't given me a reason to care yet" or "call me back in six months." You Don't Need to Know Everything One of the biggest barriers to cold calling is the belief you must have all the answers. You hesitate because you think, "What if they ask something I don't know? I'll look like a fool." Here's what that thinking misses: You have a team. No salesperson operates in a vacuum. You've got service teams, technical experts, partners, and colleagues who collectively know far more than you do individually. The expectation that you should show up with encyclopedic knowledge is self-imposed and unrealistic. What matters on a cold call isn't demonstrating expertise. It's demonstrating curiosity and commitment.  When you release yourself from the pressure to be perfect, cold calling becomes about investigation rather than performance.  Ask Questions Nobody Else Does Most salespeople treat cold calls like a race to present their solution.

    Do you ever wonder if your worries are just “normal mom stress” or if it's time to get professional help?In this powerful episode, Rebecca Greene sits down with licensed psychotherapist and behavior analyst Laurie Singer. Laurie shares how personal tragedy inspired her career, why anxiety often shows up differently in kids than in adults, and what parents can do to set healthy boundaries and model calm behavior. She explains the concept of anticipatory anxiety, reveals practical strategies like her “signal plan,” and emphasizes the importance of positive reinforcement over constant correction. Laurie's compassionate wisdom is a reminder to moms everywhere: you're doing your best—and it's more than enough.Key Takeaways → Anxiety in children often looks like physical symptoms (stomachaches, dizziness) rather than words.→ Parents' own anxiety can unintentionally feed into their kids' anxiety.→ Setting boundaries isn't about being strict—it's about giving kids the security they crave.→ Positive praise should outweigh correction (aim for 5 positives to every 1 negative).→ Moms must carve out time for themselves—30 minutes a day can change everything.Memorable Quotes: “Stop being so hard on yourself as a parent. You're not being graded at the end of the day.” “Kids want you to set boundaries—even when they fight against them.” “If you want to see more of a behavior, praise it. Be specific and consistent.” If you're a mom struggling with overwhelm, anxiety, or endless self-criticism, this conversation will remind you that you're not alone.

    “To will is human, but to surrender is divine.” - Guy Finley So much of our suffering comes when life does not go our way. Traffic makes us late, meetings unfold differently than expected, or loved ones face challenges we cannot control. In this episode of 10 Minutes to Less Suffering, you will learn how our will can equal pain, how uncertainty can become an ally instead of an enemy, and how pure surrender eases stress and creates space for renewal. These practices show us how to meet everyday struggles with less resistance and more peace. Affirmation Poem: When my will demands what life does not give, I meet the birthplace of pain. I breathe, I soften, I release. Uncertainty is not my enemy. It carries hope, renewal, and possibility. In the unknown, I am free. Surrender is not giving up. It is giving over. It is opening to life itself, allowing it to reshape me, polish me, make me whole again. Here I find less stress, less suffering, and the peace of flowing with what is.

    Hey friend! If I simply told you to read a book, what would you say? If you're already a reader, you probably already know the major benefits it has on your mental health. But if you're not, it's either because you don't have time to read or you just don't enjoy it. In today's episode, I'm going to try and convince you otherwise. We will talk about:  the 4 reasons reading fiction calms my anxiety and reduces stress ways to fit in reading as a busy mom reading to replace doom scrolling how we all just want to be seen and validated and much more Grab your crochet project and a cup of joe! Let's crochet through those emotions. Here are the fiction books I mentioned in today's episode (these are affiliate links): Fourth Wing (The Empyrean Series) by Rebecca Yarros The Midnight Library by Matt Haig The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid ACOTAR book set by Sarah J.

    Many people feel unsettled these days. There seems to be a general unease in the air, some of it caused by the rapid changes the current president is making, many mean-spirited and cruel. For Latter-day Saints, add in the recent loss of President Nelson and the terrible tragedy in a Michigan chapel, and a sense of uncertainty and impending doom fills many hearts. In this episode, LDF host Dan Wotherspoon and LDF board member Mark Crego speak to this general malaise felt by so many. What is it? How is it manifesting? Is anyone, anywherd feeling settled at all? Most of all, what self-care strategies might help us? Their discussion doesn't contain a lot of answers, but they elucidate the issue, share personal stories, and offer their sense of how we can regain equilibrium. Listen in!

    Have you ever noticed that even when your body is still, your mind is still racing? Worry, distractions, and endless to-do lists often crowd out the quiet we long for—and can make prayer feel impossible.  But what if there was a way to experience both peace in your mind and presence in prayer? In this episode, author Jennifer Tucker invites us into the practice of meditation—Christian meditation where you focus on God's Word, become attentive to His presence, and renew your mind by filling your thoughts with His truth.  Not only does Jennifer share the physical, mental, and spiritual benefits of meditation, but she'll also set you up with a simple, practical framework to get started. Plus, she'll help you recognize how to know if you're truly hearing from God as you listen for His voice through prayer. My friend, if you've ever struggled to still your mind—or if prayer feels more like a duty than a delight—this conversation will encourage and equip you. You'll come away with the first steps to cultivate a more purposeful, peaceful prayer life, and with it, deeper intimacy with God.
