What if getting better with money started with admitting you do not have to know everything yet?In this episode, Tiffany sits down with Peter Dunn, CEO of Your Money Line and longtime personal finance expert known as Pete the Planner, and Nicole Lorch, President of First Internet Bank, for a practical and honest conversation about the money questions women are often carrying quietly. Together, they talk through the emotional side of financial confidence, how to think about time as one of your most valuable resources, why convenience can be a responsible choice, and how to start making smarter decisions without shame or overwhelm.This conversation is a reminder that money is not just about budgeting, saving, or doing everything “right.” It is about understanding what you have, where you are going, and what kind of life you are trying to build. From outsourcing and emergency funds to long-term savings, financial literacy, AI tools, and family money conversations, Peter and Nicole offer clear language and practical next steps for women who want to feel more equipped, more confident, and more honest about their financial lives.What You'll LearnHow to use money as a resource for time, support, and a more sustainable lifeWhy financial confidence starts with asking better questions and facing where you areHow to build simple money systems that help you save, plan, and make decisions with more clarityTimestamps:(00:00) Intro(02:41) Why women need more financial confidence(05:15) Honest money confessions(10:11) Using money to buy back time(13:04) Finding an advisor you can trust(16:20) Saving without feeling deprived(19:22) How money follows us into relationships(22:47) Why early college savings matter(25:53) Building financial safety for yourself(31:23) The real cost of kids' activities(38:43) Why emergency funds protect your options(46:11) Using AI to ask better money questionsLike this episode?

What if the answers to some of your biggest leadership challenges are already sitting inside your team, but nobody is saying them out loud?In this episode, I sit down with Jeff Wetzler, founder of Ask Approach, co-founder of Transcend, former Chief Learning Officer at Teach For America, and author of Ask: Tap Into the Hidden Wisdom of People Around You for Unexpected Breakthroughs in Leadership and Life.The reality is that the people around us know things we don't. They have ideas, perspectives, concerns, and feedback that could help us make better decisions, avoid mistakes, and navigate challenges more effectively. Yet so often those insights never get shared.Jeff has spent decades helping leaders understand why this happens and, more importantly, what we can do about it. In this conversation, we explore why people hold back what they're really thinking, how authority changes conversations, and the practical habits leaders can develop to hear more of what matters.We also dive into curiosity, listening, psychological safety, feedback, and what Jeff calls "the unspokens" that exist in every team and organisation.In this episode, we cover:Why people hold back feedback, concerns, ideas, and perspectives from leadersThe hidden cost of the "unspokens" inside teams and organisationsHow power and authority make it harder for leaders to hear the truthThe four things leaders are least likely to hear from their peopleJeff's ASK Approach and the five practices that unlock collective intelligenceWhy curiosity is a choice, not a personality traitHow to create environments that feel safe enough for people to speak upThe difference between quality questions and the questions that shut down learningWhy most leaders think they're better listeners than they actually areHow to encourage more honest feedback, especially as you become more seniorThe role AI can play in helping leaders become more curious, reflective, and effectiveMany of the answers we are looking for already exist somewhere in the organisation. The challenge is that people don't always tell us what they know, what they're worried about, or what they're seeing.My favourite part was Jeff's perspective on curiosity. We often think of curiosity as something you either have or you don't. Jeff challenges that idea and offers a much more practical way of thinking about it.I also found myself reflecting on how easy it is, particularly when we're busy or under pressure, to move too quickly into problem-solving mode. Sometimes the most valuable thing we can do as leaders is pause long enough to ask another question.If you're leading a team and want to hear more of what people are really thinking, I think you'll get a lot from this conversation.

Many leaders spend their careers trying to avoid rejection. The most successful leaders learn how to embrace it.In this powerful episode of Olympic Minds, Sherry Winn welcomes New York Times bestselling author, entrepreneur, and financial literacy pioneer, and President of the Children's Financial Network, Neale Godfrey. Through humor, personal stories, and decades of experience breaking barriers, Neil reveals how overcoming rejection, embracing authenticity, and refusing to live in shame helped shape her remarkable career.You'll discover:How resilience under pressure is built through experience, not theoryWhy authentic leadership starts with embracing who you truly areHow self-awareness and emotional intelligence unlock greater influenceListeners will gain practical insights on resilience, leadership confidence, self-awareness, innovation, and what it truly takes to create a life and career built on purpose rather than approval.Guest: Neale Godfreyhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/nealegodfrey/Expert: Sherry Winn https://www.linkedin.com/in/thewinningleadershipcompany/Sound: Mahesh R.Producer: Archita Puranik

What happens inside a child's brain when they're told not to touch something… and immediately reach for it anyway?In this episode we sit down with developmental neuroscientist Dr. Abigail Fiske from Lancaster University to explore how self-control develops in infancy and early childhood.Dr. Fisk studies executive functions, which are the mental skills that help us focus, regulate behaviour, and resist impulses. Using child friendly brain-imaging technology (FNIRS) and longitudinal research, she follows children from infancy through early childhood to understand how these critical abilities emerge and develop.We discuss:Why toddlers struggle with self-controlWhat executive functions actually areHow inhibitory control develops in the brainMeasuring brain activity in babies using non-invasive neuroimagingThe role of the prefrontal cortex in early developmentLessons from the classroom that inspired Dr. Fisk's research careerWhy the first five years of life are so importantEarly intervention, education, and the future of child development researchWhether you're a parent, educator, psychology enthusiast, or simply curious about how the brain develops, this conversation offers fascinating insights into the science behind self-control and learning.Support the showSupport us and reach out!https://smoothbrainsociety.comhttps://www.patreon.com/SmoothBrainSocietyInstagram: @thesmoothbrainsocietyTikTok: @thesmoothbrainsocietyTwitter/X:  @SmoothBrainSocFacebook: @thesmoothbrainsocietyMerch and all other links: Linktreeemail: thesmoothbrainsociety@gmail.com

What if the spiritual journey isn't about destroying your ego at all? What if it's actually about healing the wounded parts of yourself that have been quietly shaping your reality all along?One of the most common ideas in spiritual circles is the concept of “ego death.” But what if we've misunderstood what that really means? In this episode of Soul Alive Radio, I explore the deeper truth behind the ego, why it's often just a collection of unhealed wounds and false stories, and how true transformation comes not from fighting yourself—but from healing yourself.As we release old conditioning and dissolve the stories that tell us we're unworthy, unseen, or rejected, we create space for something far more powerful to emerge: what I call the Boundaried Soul—a version of you that is heart-led, aligned, and deeply grounded in self-trust.You'll discover:Why ego death is really a process of healing and deconditioning the wounded self—not eliminating who you areHow to identify the false stories beneath emotional triggers and begin releasing them through energetic healingWhat it means to become a Boundaried Soul so you can stay open-hearted without over-giving, over-explaining, or abandoning yourselfTranscript:00:00 Welcome to Soul Alive00:24 What Ego Death Means01:48 Habits vs Energy Healing03:28 Rejection Story Example04:42 Feel Breathe Release Method07:02 Boundaried Soul Explained08:12 Spiritual Overgiving Myth09:43 School Pickup Boundaries13:42 Just Being in Alignment14:47 InvitationSTAY CONNECTED:Run Your Human Design Chart: Get your Human Design chart for free, and discover how your energy is uniquely designed to work, lead, and grow.Soul Guide Circle: JOIN the Soul Guide Circle closed Facebook GroupFacebook: FOLLOW on FacebookInstagram: FOLLOW on InstagramYouTube: Follow in YouTubeReady to grow a prosperous soul-guided business?

Patriarchy asks mothers to hold themselves to impossible standards and then blames them when they struggle. In this episode, I'm revisiting the patriarchal double-bind through the lens of motherhood and unpacking the expectations women are expected to follow all at once. We've become accustomed to policing others and ourselves based on the rules we've been taught a “good mother” should follow, while the realities of exhaustion, isolation, grief, resentment, and needing help are treated as personal failures. But motherhood is beautiful and hard, and acknowledging that both things can exist simultaneously is what begins to set women free. Here's what I cover:Why motherhood is such a clear example of the patriarchal double-bindHow social media often pressures women to hide the difficult parts of motherhoodWhy women are taught that needing help means failure and how that isolates mothersThe realities of parental leave and childcare that reveal how unsupported mothers actually areHow fear keeps women silent about motherhood and why telling the truth feels so riskyFind Sara here:sarafisk.coachpages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationsinstagram.com/sarafiskcoachfacebook.com/SaraFiskCoachingtiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachyoutube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333

Haley Sacks didn't grow up knowing what a 401k was. She was nannying for a kid named Winthrop on the Upper East Side, doing comedy at night, and getting paid cash under the table. Then she sat in an HR meeting and her eyes glazed over -- and she decided that was the last time she'd be caught unprepared with her own money. Today she's Mrs. Dow Jones, with millions of followers and a new book. The basement finally got her in the chair, and she did not hold back.What You'll Walk Away WithThe "future rich person" framework -- what separates people quietly building wealth from everyone else performing itWhy the biggest wealth trap isn't overspending -- it's the psychological pull of looking rich before you areHow automation is the real secret behind Haley's path to millionaire status -- and why willpower alone was never going to get her thereThe action movie analogy that finally makes the debt-versus-investing debate make sense -- and which one you tackle firstWhy your fixed expenses might be the actual problem -- and the two levers you can pull when the math doesn't workThe "money date" habit that keeps Haley on track -- and how to make it something you'll actually do every monthWhat a mise en place approach to your finances looks like -- and the four accounts every future rich person needs in place before anything elseWhy cutting spending has a floor but earning more doesn't -- and how to think creatively about your income ceilingThe mortgage volatility conversation hiding in this episode -- including OG's take on where rates actually belong historically and why "date the rate" might be the most useful three words in real estate right nowWhy comparison is derailing more financial plans than bad investments ever couldWhy This Matters NowIf you're in your 40s and you still feel like the millionaire milestone belongs to someone else's story -- someone who started earlier, earned more, or just had better instincts -- this episode is a direct challenge to that belief. Hailey Sacks didn't have better instincts. She had a glazed-over HR meeting and a determination not to be caught unprepared twice. The foundation she built after that moment is exactly what she walks through today.From the BasementMrs. Dow Jones herself -- Haley Sacks -- finally makes it down the stairs and does not disappoint. Joe and OG close the episode with a Wall Street Journal headline on mortgage rate volatility and what it actually means for anyone trying to buy, move, or refinance right now. OG lands what may be the cleanest take of the season: when should you borrow money? When you need to borrow money. Doug arrives with Dow Jones trivia about the longest-tenured company in the index, which turns out to have been added in 1932 and is hiding in plain sight on every household shelf. Whether the basement scoreboard had anything to do with Procter & Gamble is a question best answered with your earbuds in.Resources MentionedFuture Rich Person by Haley Sacks (Mrs. Dow Jones) -- pre-order with $700 in bonuses at mrsdowjones.com/book; releases May 12thMrs. Dow Jones on Instagram and YouTube -- @MrsDowJonesMrs. Dow Jones podcast -- Financial TherapyWall Street Journal mortgage volatility article by Veronica Dagher and Ben Eisen -- linked at stackingbenjamins.comStacking Benjamins Vault -- stackingbenjamins.com/vaultStacking Benjamins Meetups -- stackingbenjamins.com/badStacking Benjamins Community -- stackingbenjamins.com/basementSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There's a story I hear constantly from service-based business owners: I need more leads. More reach. More people. And sometimes that's true. But more often than not, when I start asking questions, I find out the answer isn't out there — it's already inside the business.I was super excited when Paulette Perhach reached out to grab a coaching episode spot on the show. Paulette is an award-winning travel writer and the founder of Powerhouse Writers, a writing coaching business for memoirists, personal essayists, and creative nonfiction writers who have been carrying their stories for years and haven't been able to get them finished or published. She came to this call with a very common desire: to make more money in her business. She'd been investing significant time, energy, and money into her marketing and wasn't getting the traction she'd hoped for.Once we got talking, I discovered that Paulette has a decent-sized email list, a proven offer, powerful testimonials, and clients who get real results. And yet she couldn't quite figure out where the gap was — so she assumed she needed more leads. What we uncovered together is that the answer was already inside her business, and that the launch and conversion strategy she'd been leaning on likely wasn't the right match for the offer she's actually selling.Why you need to listen to this one:Why I told Paulette directly: I don't think you have a reach problem — and what that diagnosis actually means for her businessThe difference between a reach strategy and a conversion strategy, and how to know which one your business actually needs right nowWhy you don't need a massive audience to sell high-ticket — you need the right people and a strategy designed to meet them where they areHow to build a live launch experience that feels generous and valuable but is also intentionally designed to convertThe mindset piece underneath it all: what gets in the way of making your offer with confidence, and how Paulette and I worked through it in real timeIf you've been spinning your wheels on marketing while the real opportunity is sitting right inside your business — this one's for you.You can connect with Paulette on her website and Instagram.

“I just can't get it together…”“I've been struggling with this my whole life…”“If I could just lose the weight…”If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. But here's the hard truth . . .Most people don't stay stuck because they don't care.They stay stuck because they don't take action.Or they take half-hearted action — just enough to feel like they're trying…but not enough to actually change anything.In this episode, I break down a simple (but powerful) reality of the only 3 options you have.And here's the kicker - not choosing… is actually choosing not to do anything.In this episode, you'll learn:Why fear and lack of belief keep you stuck in the same cycleHow “thinking about it” is often just disguised inactionWhy gathering more information won't change your lifeThe real cost of staying where you areHow to finally move forward — even if it's not perfectYou don't need more information. You need a decision.Because without action, nothing changes.If you . . .• Have been “thinking about it” for months (or years)• Feel stuck but aren't taking consistent action• Keep searching for the “right” plan• Are tired of starting overThis episode will hit home.**Mentioned in This Episode**

In this conversation, Ashanti sits down with Alexander Kopelman, founding president and CEO of the Children's Arts Guild, to explore authenticity, identity, creativity, and what it means to help children thrive as whole human beings. Together, they reflect on the masks adults wear, the stories we carry from childhood, and how our own fears, wounds, and expectations can shape the way we show up for young people. Alexander shares his journey as a refugee from the Soviet Union, the origins of the Children's Arts Guild, and the heart behind his book, For Real: Helping Children Remain Their Authentic Selves in a Limiting World.How identity gets shaped by what others assume about usWhy creativity can open doors to honesty, vulnerability, and emotional safetyHow the Children's Arts Guild began through work with boys and creative expressionA powerful moment from a kickball game that opened a conversation about crying and griefWhy adults in a child's ecosystem matter just as much as the child-focused program itselfWhy children need to be allowed to fully be the age they areHow post-pandemic expectations may still be out of step with where children really are00:02 Welcome to UnMASKing with Male Educators00:35 Meet Alexander Kopelman01:41 Alexander introduces the Children's Arts Guild and For Real02:09 Coming to the U.S. as a refugee and rebuilding identity03:13 Assumptions, religion, and being seen from the outside05:25 Choice, identity, and the masks we wear14:39 Creative mortification and the fear of drawing17:34 How Alexander's work with boys and adults began21:25 Kickball, crying, and the moment things shifted23:15 Why working with adults became essential25:09 Authenticity as a framework for educators and parents27:12 What games can reveal about fairness, emotion, and behavior29:17 Why adults need inner work and practice too31:45 Men's work, circles, and learning to trust the process35:31 Realizing there were no men in his life37:04 New Warrior training and recognizing inner voices40:20 Parenting, anxiety, and reacting from fear41:35 What For Real offers adults43:34 Letting children be the age they are44:19 Post-pandemic development and shifting expectations46:41 A final reminder for parents and educators47:28 How to connect with Alexander48:34 Closing invitationResources & Links MentionedChildren's Arts GuildFor Real: Helping Children Remain Their Authentic Selves in a Limiting WorldAuthenticity Works — Alexander's websitemillionmask.org — share your mask anonymouslyMankind ProjectGirls Inc.Connect with Alexander KopelmanWebsite: authenticityworks.orgBook website: forrealbook.orgJoin/Contribute to our Young Men's Conference: https://everforwardclub.orgJoin our Skool Community: https://www.skool.com/efc-young-mens-advocates-2345Submit Questions, Reflections, or Episode Ideas, Email us: totmpod100@gmail.comCreate your mask anonymously: https://millionmask.org/Connect with Ashanti BranchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksX: https://x.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/Support the Podcast & Ever Forward ClubHelp us continue creating spaces for young men to be seen, heard, and supported:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/branch-speaks/supportConnect with Ever Forward ClubInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/everforwardclubFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/everforwardclubX: https://x.com/everforwardclubLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-ever-forward-club/#UnMASKingWithMaleEducators #AlexanderKopelman #Authenticity #CreativeExpression #EmotionalSafety #WholeChild #MaleEducators #Parenting #ChildDevelopment #Healing

In this deeply personal and transformational episode, Ibrahim shares a raw testimony of a season marked by confusion, pain, and the exhausting pursuit of trying to be “good enough” for God.After giving his all—serving, praying, sacrificing—he found himself questioning everything when life began to fall apart. Voices around him labeled his struggles as punishment, failure, and proof that something was wrong. And slowly, he began to believe it.But in a quiet, intimate moment with God, everything changed.Through a simple song he wrote in his lowest place, Ibrahim encountered a truth that would redefine his entire life:“Give up the habit of trying to be lovable… because you are enough.”This episode is an invitation to step out of performance, out of fear, out of striving—and into the reality of God's unconditional love.You will discover:Why trying to earn God's love leads to exhaustion and frustrationThe difference between serving God from acceptance vs. striving for acceptanceHow misunderstanding God's love distorts your relationship with HimWhy you don't give, pray, or worship to be loved—but because you already areHow grace begins to transform your life the moment you stop trying to be “enough”This message will confront deeply rooted beliefs and awaken you to a liberating truth:You are not becoming enough. You already are—because of Jesus.If you've ever felt unworthy, stuck in cycles, or distant from God… this episode is for you.Let this truth settle in your heart:God is not asking you to qualify for His love. He is asking you to receive it.

Have you ever realized… you might be the one making everything harder than it needs to be? In this episode, the tables are turned. I'm the one being interviewed by nervous system expert and returning guest  Nahid de Belgeonne and what came out of this conversation was very refreshing, so I wanted to share it with you! We talk about stress, burnout, codependency, and the moment I realized I was taking on everyone else's “emergencies” as my own. I share what happened when my body forced me to slow down (in a very real way), and how I've started to finally calm my nervous system instead of living in overwhelm.We also get into:Why high achievers struggle to metabolize stressThe “second arrow of suffering” and how we make things worse than they areHow to stop absorbing other people's energy and emotionsMy new morning routine for regulating my nervous systemPregnancy, ambition, and learning to actually take care of myselfWhat it really looks like to step into a new chapter of your life (for me entrepreneurship and Motherhood) This conversation is honest, grounding, and deeply human. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or like life has been heavier than it needs to be… this one is for you.You can connect with Nahid and learn more about her work: https://www.thehumanmethod.co.uk/ Check out her retreat in Greece: https://www.thehumanmethod.co.uk/thesootheweekinlefkadagreece Check out my Substack: https://substack.com/@laurenlograsso

What if the goal of parenting isn't raising kids who always listen…but raising kids who feel safe being fully themselves? In this episode, Kristin shares a realization that stopped her in her tracks: so much of her life has been shaped by the quiet pressure to be liked. To be the nice one. The agreeable one. The one everyone walks away from thinking, “Wow, she's so kind.” From friendships to everyday interactions with strangers, that instinct to make sure everyone feels good about her has been deeply ingrained, and incredibly exhausting.And that realization led to a bigger parenting question: how often do kids learn to people-please because they feel their acceptance depends on it? Many of us grew up believing the highest compliment a child could receive was being called a “good kid.” The obedient one. The easy one. The one who doesn't push back, question, or cause problems. But what if that expectation quietly teaches kids something we never intended, that their job is to make adults happy?In this episode, we unpack the hidden pressure behind being the “good kid” and why prioritizing obedience above all else can sometimes make it harder for kids to develop confidence, boundaries, and trust in their own voice.Kristin talks about:Why the idea of the “obedient child” can be misleadingHow kids internalize the need for approval from the adults around themThe subtle ways people-pleasing starts in childhoodThe difference between respect and complianceWhy it's actually healthy for kids to disagree, push back, and express who they really areHow we can create homes where kids feel safe showing up authentically...even when that's messyBecause here's the truth: our kids are going to grow up in a world where not everyone will like them. And while that's uncomfortable, it's also part of being human. The goal isn't raising kids who never disappoint anyone. The goal is raising kids who trust themselves enough to be who they are, even when it means not everyone approves. And when kids know they're loved exactly as they are, they don't have to spend their lives shrinking themselves to earn it.This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

While brainstorming episode ideas, I sometimes search Google Analytics to see what people are asking. Here's what I found this week: How do I ask someone to hang out without making it weird?Turns out, millions of people are feeling anxious about asking someone to join them for coffee! (What do I say? What if they think I'm weird? What if they say no?)Today, we end that cycle. I'll talk you through how to ask someone to hang out: what to say, how to handle rejection, why it feels hard.Embrace that awkward first encounter! That's the kind of thing you laugh about later on, years into a friendship.In this episode you'll hear about:Why asking someone to hang out feels so much harder as an adult than when you're a kid or teenagerThe value in being specific when asking someone to hang out and suggesting an activity or timeThe importance of not taking rejections personally! Rejection is of the offer, not of the person; others might not be prioritizing connection right now as highly as you areHow to make it easier to ask somebody to hang out by choosing an activity they're already partaking inResources & LinksListen to Episode 145 about reframing rejection with Tanisha Moody, Like what you hear?

Reflexive verbs are one of the most important (and confusing) parts of Spanish grammar.In this episode, we explain:What reflexive verbs areHow to use me, te, se, nos correctlyThe most common reflexive verbs in everyday SpanishPractical examples you'll hear in real conversationsIf you've ever wondered why it's “me levanto” instead of just “levanto”, this episode will help you finally understand it.

This episode is a raw, behind-the-scenes look at a live call inside the Mindset & Alignment Collective—and it's about something so many women are still carrying without realizing it. Over-explaining.Softening your truth.Apologizing for your needs, your voice, your success, your evolution. On this live call, we talk about:Why apologizing has become a survival pattern for so many womenHow self-abandonment disguises itself as being “nice” or “understanding”What actually shifts when you stop shrinking and start standing rooted in who you areHow alignment begins the moment you stop asking for permissionThis isn't about becoming louder or harder.It's about becoming cleaner.Clearer.More grounded in your truth.✨ If this conversation hits home and you're ready to stop doing this work alone, you're invited inside.

If you struggle with people-pleasing and losing yourself in relationships, this episode with Ingrid Clayton, a licensed clinical psychologist and expert in relational trauma, about her book Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves and How to Find Our Way Back, is a conversation that can help you understand and transform patterns holding you back. Exploring fawning, which is a lesser-known trauma response shaped by caretaking, appeasement, and self-abandonment, you'll learn how it often shows up as anxiety and hypervigilance. And, through personal and client stories, you'll gain insights on reclaiming authenticity, navigating backlash, and starting the process of “unfawning.”Listen and Learn:Why do some people cope with relational trauma by becoming overly accommodating or pleasing?How people-pleasing might actually be your nervous system choosing safety in ways that once protected you, but could now be quietly shaping your identity and relationships without you realizing it, and what it actually takes to reconnect with who you areHow chronic fawning can look like emotional strength on the outside while quietly disconnecting you from your own anxiety and bodyHow what looks like dishonesty can actually be a survival response that once kept you safe, and what it takes to notice when it starts keeping you stuckHow tuning into what you notice in your body can be the first uncomfortable but powerful step to breaking people-pleasing patterns and building more authentic relationshipsWhy red flags can feel like home after emotional abuse and how learning to trust your own resentment might be the first step toward building a truly safe relationshipResources:Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves and How to Find Our Way Back https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9798217045327 Ingrid's Website: https://www.ingridclayton.com/ Connect with Ingrid on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ingridclaytonphd Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IngridClaytonPhD LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ingridclaytonphd/ Substack: https://substack.com/@ingridclaytonphd YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3PvWTgJMirURfgHWj3h28g About Ingrid ClaytonDr. Ingrid Clayton is a licensed clinical psychologist with a master's in transpersonal psychology and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology.

Send us a textWhat if confidence isn't something we build later in life… but something we slowly learn to unlearn?In this heart-opening episode, Alex is joined by two powerful collaborators—artist Nadia & project partner Danielle—for a deeply personal conversation about Free to Be Me, a children's book that's quickly becoming a movement.What started as a quiet moment during a breathwork session (and a breastfeeding cuddle) has grown into a bold vision: helping the next generation of leaders stay connected to who they truly are—before the world teaches them otherwise.Together, the 3 explore why language matters so much in shaping belief, identity, and self-worth from the very beginning. Alex shares how her background in neuroscience, education, and leadership coaching—combined with becoming a mom—radically heightened her awareness of the words children hear every day… and the invisible stories those words plant.You'll hear:Why phrases like “I'm busy” or “be careful” can quietly shape lifelong patterns of burnout and fearHow affirmations like “I can do this” become embodied beliefs when children are invited to truly own themWhat it means to raise children who feel seen, loved, and enough exactly as they areHow art becomes a bridge between emotion, identity, and belongingWhy this book is being intentionally co-created—with families, children, and the wider communityNadia offers a beautiful behind-the-scenes look at her creative process, sharing how she captures not just what a child looks like, but how they feel. Danielle grounds the conversation by weaving together the purpose, pacing, and importance of doing this work with care, integrity, and heart.✨ Be Part of the StoryFree to Be Me is now officially available for pre-order, and this episode marks the beginning of its next phase.In the coming weeks, we'll be opening a crowdsourcing initiative that invites families, parents, grandparents, and supporters to help co-create the illustrations that bring this book to life. From full-page scenes to individual portraits, this project is being built with community, not just for it.If this conversation resonated with you—if you believe in raising children who feel confident, capable, and free to be themselves—this is your invitation to be part of something meaningful.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Mindy Pelz, bestselling author, thought leader, and one of the most trusted voices in women's health, for a powerful conversation about what really happens to us in midlife.Dr. Mindy isn't just talking about menopause as a hormonal shift, but as a profound transformation of the brain, body, and identity. From burnout and people-pleasing to leadership and self-trust, this conversation reframes midlife not as a breakdown, but as a breakthrough.This episode is about reclaiming the girl within you, her curiosity, her wisdom, her strength, and learning how to age like a girl with intention, science, and self-compassion.In this episode, we discuss:Why menopause is a neurological rewiring, not just a drop in estrogenHow the loss of estrogen impacts mood, motivation, memory, and identityThe “people-pleasing” brain and why women stop caring so much after 50Why midlife burnout is often a signal of transformation, not failureThe science behind fasting, ketones, and brain health in postmenopausal womenHow exercise needs to change in menopause, and why more isn't always betterThe role of muscle, creatine, collagen, and movement in aging wellWhy women are biologically wired for leadership in the second half of lifeThe butterfly metaphor for midlife transformation and becoming who you truly areHow to advocate for yourself with doctors and build a healthcare team that listensWhy involving partners in the menopause conversation matters more than we thinkFor more on Dr. Mindy Pelz, follow her on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.mindypelz Website: https://www.drmindypelz.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/drmindypelz TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drmindypelz Buy her newest book Age Like a Girl: https://a.co/d/hDptHZz Thanks to my Sponsors:Ritual: For a limited time, save 40% on your first month at Ritual.com/OVER50 Honeylove: Use our exclusive link to save 20% off Honeylove at honeylove.com/OVER50 Hero Bread: Go to hero.co and use code FLOURISHING at checkout for 10% off your order.Veracity: For up to 45% off your order, head to VeracityHealth.co and use code FLOURISHINGBrado: Head to Brodo.com/FLOURISHING for 20% off your first subscription order and use code FLOURISHING for an additional $10 off.

More One Order Arrested — Pro-Maduro Motorcycle Gangs Hunt Trump SupportersToday on Black Dragon Biker TV, we're breaking down three very different biker-related stories happening across the globe — from Canada, to Venezuela, to right here at home — and what they reveal about power, perception, and purpose on two wheels. More One Order MC Arrests in CanadaIf you want to run with the big dogs, you pick up big fleas — and it appears One Order MC in Canada has finally attracted the full attention of law enforcement.Police in Edmonton have laid charges against nine more men as part of a long-running investigation into an alleged organized crime group that expanded west after establishing itself out east. Authorities have publicly displayed seized colors and evidence, signaling that One Order's push toward a hardened outlaw image has come with serious consequences.We'll break down:Why these arrests matterHow organized-crime cases are built over timeWhat happens when clubs chase notorietyAnd what this means for the Canadian MC landscape Venezuela: Pro-Maduro Motorcycle Gangs Take to the StreetsMeanwhile in Caracas, armed pro-Maduro motorcycle gangs—often referred to as colectivos—have reportedly taken control of neighborhoods following the U.S. capture of dictator Nicolás Maduro.According to multiple reports, these militant bike groups are hunting down Venezuelans believed to support the U.S. action or former President Trump, setting up checkpoints, intimidating civilians, and enforcing regime loyalty through fear.We'll discuss:Who these motorcycle militias really areHow bikes are being used as tools of political enforcementThe dangers of armed biker groups aligned with state powerAnd what separates outlaw culture from government-sanctioned violence️ Back Home: MC Steps Up for the CommunityFinally, we'll highlight a powerful reminder of what motorcycle clubs can be when purpose outweighs ego.A local motorcycle club in Ohio has stepped up to pay off outstanding school lunch debts for Clinton-Massie students, ensuring kids aren't punished or embarrassed over unpaid balances.We'll talk about:Why stories like this rarely get mainstream attentionHow MCs quietly support their communities every dayAnd why giving back is just as much a part of biker culture as riding

If you've ever noticed that when life gets hard you tend to pull away from God ; numb out, isolate, distract, or try to fix everything on your own, this episode is for you.As we head into a new year, Jerrad shares a personal story from a father-son race that turned into a moment of crisis… and how it revealed something deeply true about all of us: pressure exposes our reputation.In this episode, we contrast our instinct to hide with God's consistent reputation throughout Scripture; a God who keeps drawing near to broken, messy people again and again. From the garden of Eden to the life of Jesus to the promise of God's Spirit within us, the story is clear:When chaos hits, God doesn't withdraw. He comes closer.This is an invitation to stop hiding, and start trusting God's reputation more than your instincts.What You'll LearnWhy crisis and hardship reveal who we really areHow shame, fear, and even success cause men to hide from GodWhat Scripture shows us about God's reputation from Genesis to RevelationWhy men often turn away from God when they need Him mostA simple, embodied practice to help you turn toward God instead of numbing outWhat it looks like to come out of hiding as a husband, father, and discipleKey Takeaways• Pressure reveals reputation.You don't really know what's inside until life turns up the heat.• Our instinct is to hide.From fig leaves to distraction to self-reliance, men tend to pull away when things get hard.• God's reputation is nearness.Again and again in Scripture, God draws closer — even in rebellion, failure, and fear.• Healing begins with turning toward God.Not after you fix yourself. Not after you “do better.” Right where you are.• Strong families begin with healed men.Men who stop hiding and learn to trust God's presence change everything downstream.Resources MentionedSponsor: Dwell Bible AppListen to Scripture anywhere and stay connected to God's Word in real lifedwellbible.com/dadtiredMake a donation to support the ministry and help more men find healing.

In this week's episode of The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast, we're joined by Nick Potter, consultant osteopath and head of health and wellbeing at Brevan Howard Asset Management. Nick brings a fresh perspective on what's really going on in our bodies, especially for neurodivergent women navigating stress, sensory overload, pain, and misdiagnosis.We talk about how the brain processes pain, why hypermobility might be affecting your nervous system more than you think, and the powerful link between chronic conditions like fatigue, fibromyalgia, migraines, and hormonal symptoms and ADHD. Key takeaways:What proprioception is and why ADHD women need to understand itThe science behind pain perception and why your brain might interpret things as worse than they areHow hypermobility and collagen differences affect proprioception (a unspoken 6th sense)Why neurodivergent women experience more chronic fatigue, pain, and hormonal symptomsThe emotional relief and reduced pain that come with a proper diagnosisThe body budget theory: how burnout happens when your energy runs low, and what to do about itHow childhood stress and trauma can change the way your nervous system responds to the worldUsing HRV (heart rate variability) as a signal for stress, illness or burnoutThe additional stress women go through from having an additional hormone (the womb), and its impact on health The importance of using anxiety and fear as a signal, not something to ignoreSimple, free tools to support your nervous system, such as resistance training, breathwork, and restThis is an empowering and validating episode which explains why your body feels like it's constantly in overdrive and help you connect the dots between your body and brain in a whole new way.My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here!

On this episode of In The Circle, I address a deep and personal question from Annesa: Can I recover from a lifelong struggle with food and body dysmorphia resulting from sexual abuse?This inquiry sheds light on the intricate relationship between trauma, self-view, and the longing for healing in a society where many women undergo sexual assault. For us to discover true healing, we need to confront and question our deep-seated identities and beliefs and reconnect with our emotional and spiritual essence. Practicing techniques like Kundalini Yoga and mindfulness can play a huge part in helping us achieve our ultimate goal of peace and freedom. We need to be striving daily to discover our truths, discard detrimental self-beliefs, and embrace self-love and acceptance, especially when confronted with societal challenges and personal traumas. Not only does this guide us to experience true healing and recovery, it extends a beacon of hope to those on a similar healing journey.Tommy discussesThe importance of discovering one's true self beyond trauma and storiesWhy recovery is about realizing the divinity within and coming to the truth of who you areHow trauma keeps you in a story that distances you from your true selfThe multiple benefits of practicing yoga and mindfulnessHow to create an identity filled with love, compassion, and presence.Further Links & ResourcesCatch a Meeting.
