Have you ever caught yourself holding your breath and realizing you've been tense for hours without even noticing? That was me all the time, until I started paying attention to what my body was asking for, rather than what I thought I should be doing.So, today, I'm talking about rest. The real kind. Not sleep (though most of us aren't getting enough of that either), but the kind of rest that lets your shoulders drop, your breath slow down, and your spirit finally feel safe. The kind that most of us, busy moms, avoid, or feel guilty about, even though it can change our hormones more than any supplement, protocol, or perfect routine ever can.You'll learn:The surprising moment I realized I wasn't truly resting Why your body can't absorb minerals or balance hormones, if your mind never slows downSimple and doable rest practices I use that make a bigger difference than any self-care checklistIf you've been wondering why PMS hits harder on the weeks you push through, or why your mood settles on the days you finally slow down, this episode will make that pattern unmistakably clear. You'll hear exactly how your body signals that it's done running on adrenaline, why your hormones can't reset without real rest, and what small shifts move the needle when nothing else does.NEW Private Podcast - 3 Steps to Making Hormones WellBook a FREE Hormone Strategy Call with meNEED HELP FIXING YOUR HORMONES?

When pediatric occupational therapist and TimberNook founder Angela Hanscom steps into the woods, she sees what most of us miss: children rebuilding the very systems in their brains that make attention possible. In this deeply hopeful conversation, Angela explains why daily outdoor play isn't just “good for kids”—it's biologically essential. From spinning and hanging upside down to tumbling down hills, nature gives children the movement their vestibular system craves, activating the brain's built-in attention network and counteracting the effects of our screen-heavy world. Schools partnering with TimberNook are reporting calmer classrooms, fewer behavior challenges, and even more academic risk-taking as children spend long, unstructured stretches in nature. But this episode goes beyond brain science. Angela and Ginny explore the social, emotional, and leadership skills that develop when adults step back and let the woods take the lead. You'll hear powerful stories of children negotiating conflicts, comforting friends, forming “clans,” navigating risk, and discovering capability without adults micromanaging every move. It's a reminder that the richness of what happens in the woods grows more than attention spans; it grows confidence, resilience, empathy, creativity, and identity. If you need encouragement, inspiration, or simply permission to let go a little, this conversation will shift how you see childhood and how you support it.

In our episode this week we will continue our look at the Five Basic Beliefs of living a Reasonable life by looking at Belief #4 “The point of life is to be happy.  Strive to find your happiness in living a balanced, harmonic, and loving life.”  

A new national survey challenges the popular narrative that Irish people are largely fearful of AI, and uncovers a clear generational divide in attitudes toward it. When asked about AI and employment, the survey of 1,039 adults - conducted by Ipsos B&A on behalf of Irish tech company, the UX Design Institute - shows 41 per cent expressed a negative view, 31 per cent were positive, and 28 per cent were neutral. This suggests that while concern exists, 59 per cent are neutral or positive, indicating that most people do not see AI as an inevitable threat to jobs and are keeping an open mind about its impact. Positivity towards AI is strongest among younger adults: 42 per cent of 16-24-year-olds feel positive about AI's impact on jobs, compared with just 22 per cent of those aged 50 and over. The research also shows that AI tools have gone mainstream in Irish workplaces, with 65 per cent of employees saying they now use them in their jobs at least occasionally, and 14 per cent using them daily. This rises to 20 per cent for 16-24 year olds. "The conversation about AI and jobs has become dominated by fear," said Colman Walsh, CEO of the UX Design Institute, which has recently launched a suite of AI courses for those working in the digital space. "But our data shows a more balanced reality. Yes, some are cautious but most people are open-minded or optimistic about its potential impact. They're curious, not panicked." "That's a very healthy place for Ireland to be as we navigate this technological shift." Only 35 per cent of all adults say they never use AI at work - a figure that drops to 24 per cent among 16-24-year-olds, but rises to almost half (48 per cent) among those aged 50 and over. This highlights how generational exposure is influencing adoption. However, only 15 per cent feel very confident they're using AI to its full potential. This drops to 6 per cent amongst those aged 50 and over, showing how older workers risk being left behind. Those who feel positive about AI and are confident using it are significantly more likely to be using it often in their work. 63 per cent say that training would be valuable. This rises to 71 per cent among desk-based workers, suggesting particularly strong demand for AI training among professionals in roles where these tools are most relevant. "Irish professionals are already using AI. They just want to get better at it," Walsh added. "The findings suggest a workforce that's keen to learn and experiment, but still figuring out how to make AI part of everyday work. The next step is helping people gain the confidence and skills to use it more effectively." To help address the confidence and skills gap revealed by the survey, the UX Design Institute has launched a new suite of live online certificate courses for digital teams to harness AI in their day-to-day work. "Our training programmes bridge the gap between curiosity and confidence," Walsh added. "They are designed for anyone working in digital who wants to stay up to speed with this new world." "With AI developing at an incredible pace, we've designed these courses to be delivered live, allowing us to respond quickly to new developments and emerging best practices." The new UX Design Institute courses cover customised AI training for teams working in the digital space as well as specialist courses covering AI for UX, user research and prototyping.

Mike Johnson, Beau Morgan, and Ali Mac continue to talk about how they think the Atlanta Falcons defense matches up with the New Orleans Saints offense, and explain why they think Falcons Defensive Coordinator Jeff Ulbrich will plan for the Falcons defense to have more of a balanced attack versus the Saints on Sunday after Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young had 448 passing yards against the Falcons defense last Sunday.

The Stars dropped a frustrating 3–2 loss to the Islanders, and it wasn't the score that set this one off — it was the overturned Wyatt Johnston goal that stole the spotlight. Ryan breaks down why the ruling made no sense, how it changed the entire feel of the night, and why the Stars never even got the chance to push for overtime. This episode also looks closely at Jake Oettinger's tough outing, the surprisingly strong performance from the injury-riddled defense, Jason Robertson's continued scoring surge, and Jamie Benn's return to the lineup. Balanced analysis with a splash of volcanic emotion — just the way Stars fans felt watching this one unfold. We're Looking for sponsors!

Running technique coach Paul Mackinnon (The Balanced Runner) unpacks why most runners "force outcomes" (cadence, foot strike, knee drive) instead of changing the inputs that actually reshape movement. Paul explains his top-down approach—starting at the arms and torso to influence what happens below—so athletes can reduce ground contact time, improve rhythm, and shift along the continuum from rehab to performance. Across an engaging conversation in episode 374 of The Physical Performance Show, with hosts Brad Beer and Huw Darnell, Paul challenges the idea that "technique doesn't matter," arguing that how you move determines how you load. He distinguishes economy from efficiency, shows why arm swing and thoracic control set the timing for the legs, and shares practical cues to build self-awareness, symmetry, and lift—without derailing training volume. Clinicians and athletes alike will gain a clearer roadmap for translating S&C work to the road, coaching more effectively, and making durable technique change.

Balanced Euphoria is a deep, groove-driven, late-night soundtrack designed to bring the room from peak intensity into pure after-hours flow. Spanning just over two hours, this mix is my first set built 100% from STEM files, meaning not a single track is played in its original form. Every moment is reconstructed, re-layered, or re-imagined. Across four decks, the set drifts between smooth transitions, hypnotic rhythms, and melodic textures. Roughly 40% is mixed on all four decks, 50% on three decks, and the remaining 10% on two, giving this mix a constantly shifting, evolving feel. Expect subtle grooves, rolling basslines, and carefully balanced energy — the kind of set I'd play in the final hours of a long night, when the dance floor wants to move but also float. Perfect for late-night drives, creative focus, or anyone who loves progressive, melodic, and atmospheric dance music with intention. As always, here is the track listing....BUT, they may not be in the exact order.  Most of the tracks have STEMs from being used throughout the set, and layered with others, so yoiun will not hear any original segment of a track by itself.   Let the journey unfold.     Artist Title Argia Stella The Chemical Brothers Feels Like I Am Dreaming Kupon Zoom In (Original_Mix) Kollektiv Turmstrasse Sorry I Am Late (Extended) YOZZ The Galaxy (Extended Mix) Yannick Mueller Cobra WhoMadeWho Never Alone (Patrice Bäumel Remix) Yannick Mueller Cuatro JFR Jane Watch The Stars Cassius The Sound Of Violence (Antony Toga Background DiscoVox Version) EANP Hypersonic (Original Mix) Lloyd Barwood Chain of Thoughts Emanuel Satie Resilience (Andhim Remix) Argia Attagirl (Allai's Her Pimp Hand Strong Edit Select) Kölsch Der Alte New Order Temptation (Allai's Quantum Remix) Guztavo PT & Mike Fuentez & Carmen Amaka Let You Go Glass Animals Tear in Space (Allai's Edit Select)

In this week's episode of the podcast, I'm talking with my client Amanda about what it really looks like to stay committed to balance even when it feels like nothing is changing. She shares her journey of re-entering the workforce full-time, the fear of slipping back into old habits, the quiet months where progress felt invisible, and the moment everything finally clicked — leading to less stress, more confidence, and even a surprise promotion. If you've ever wondered whether consistency actually pays off, or worried that maybe balance just won't “work” for you, this episode will give you so much hope and clarity. Topics in this episode:How Amanda navigated old habits, imposter syndrome, and a major career transition Why consistency, not perfection, is what shifts balance The power of being in a room with other ambitious working moms How foundational tools can actually change your day What happens after the program and why some breakthroughs take time to surface Show Notes & References:Book your Boundaries & Balance: Holiday Clarity Call here: www.ambitiousandbalanced.com/boundaries-and-balance-session Discover all the details about Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Ready to explore if it's right for you?

Avoid these mistakes for a healthy gut! These 8 common gut health mistakes could be destroying your digestive health. Discover the habits and foods that ruin gut health, along with my expert gut health tips to improve your digestion and overall health today.1. Trying to improve gut health with fiberIncreasing fiber is one of the worst things you can do for your gut, yet it's commonly recommended. If your gut is damaged, fiber can exacerbate the issue, contributing to gas and inflammation. If you have gut inflammation, the carnivore diet can help!The carnivore diet helps increase glutamine, an amino acid that promotes gut healing. Zinc carnosine and butyrate, found in butter, are excellent for a healthy gut. Intermittent fasting and periodic prolonged fasting are crucial for maintaining digestive health.Approximately 40% of the population has SIBO. L. Reuteri can help reduce SIBO and has many other amazing benefits. It increases oxytocin, lowers stres, and even increases social capacity. Ensure you have strong stomach acid for healthy digestion and protection from microbes. 2. Commercial probiotics and yogurt The amount of probiotics in these products is so low that it won't make a difference in gut health. Many commercial yogurts are low-fat and contain added sugar and starch. 3. Colon cleansingThis eliminates beneficial gut bacteria, which can ultimately lead to constipation and other health issues. Avoid detoxing and focus on a healthy diet.4. Antibiotics Your gut microbiome does not fully recover after taking antibiotics. Bacteria that survive antibiotics can become antibiotic-resistant superbugs! If you have to take antibiotics take a good probiotic simultaneously.5. Antacids Acid reflux is a valve problem caused by low stomach acid. Weakening your stomach acid worsens the problem. Strong stomach acid is vital for digestion, protection against pathogens, and mineral absorption. 6. Low-fat diets Low-fat diets are bad for digestion because fat stimulates the gallbladder to release bile. Low bile leads to constipation and the inability to kill off microbes in the small intestine.7. Balanced diet Everything in moderation is the worst advice! Lowering carbs from 45% to 65% of your calories to 10% can significantly improve digestion.8. Superfood shakesSuperfood shakes and smoothies with kale, spinach, and fruit can overload the small intestine with fiber. Red meat is the best superfood!
