Paul McKinnon - also known as The Balanced Runner - discusses running technique, movement efficiency, injury prevention, and why changing form requires more than drills or strength work. The Balanced Runner Links: The Balanced Runner Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebalancedrunner/ Matt Fox Links: Matt Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattinglisfox/ Matt Coaching: https://www.sweatelitecoaching.com/matt-fox/ Sweat Elite: https://www.sweatelite.co/ Supporters Club (Private Podcast Feed): https://www.sweatelite.co/supporters-club/ In this episode, Matt speaks with Paul McKinnon from The Balanced Runner about how runners can improve performance, reduce injury risk, and enjoy running more through better movement patterns. Matt begins with some skepticism around how difficult it can be for recreational runners to make meaningful form changes, while Paul explains why technique is a trainable skill when approached correctly. Paul shares how he works with everyone from beginners to elite athletes, including Ben Robinson, Isaac Doyle, Sarah Billings, Cam Wurf, Ellie Salthouse, and AFL players. He explains how he uses pattern recognition and positional analysis by eye to identify where runners are leaking energy or placing excessive load on the body. The conversation covers why drills and strength work alone are often not enough to change running technique, and why runners need to practice a specific cue every step until it becomes habit. Paul also discusses the role of physics in running, including the balance between vertical and horizontal force, and why super shoes tend to amplify the movement patterns a runner already has.

Have you ever reached the end of the week and wondered where the time went? So many people today are living on autopilot. Rushing through routines, reacting to stress, checking boxes, and postponing joy for “someday.” But functioning and truly living are not the same thing.

She explores how autopilot can disconnect us from ourselves, our relationships, our values, and even the beauty of everyday life. You'll also learn why slowing down and becoming more aware can sometimes bring up uncomfortable emotions, old memories, or unresolved stress — and why that's actually part of the healing process. This episode is a reminder that your body is incredible, life itself is miraculous, and the present moment is where your life is actually happening. In This Episode You'll Learn: • What it means to live on “autopilot” • Why so many people feel disconnected, burned out, or stuck • How stress and past experiences can keep us emotionally numb or distracted • Why intentional living creates a deeper and more meaningful life • The importance of identifying your core values • How to stop postponing the things that matter most • Why your nervous system needs to feel safe before you can fully be present • 5 simple ways to start living more intentionally and in the moment Reflection Questions From This Episode • Where in your life are you living on autopilot? • Are your daily choices aligned with your core values? • What have you been postponing that truly matters to you? • What would it look like to become more present in your own life?   Remember to rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast!

In this episode, portfolio manager Steven Visscher covers how Mawer's balanced portfolios navigated 2025 and how they are positioned in 2026. With a war-driven energy shock on one side and an AI investment boom on the other, the market is pulling in two directions at once. Steven walks through what that means for asset mix, where the team is seeing signs of investor complacency, and why cracks in private credit could soon create a meaningful opportunity.   Key Takeaways: Two forces are competing for market direction in 2026: a war-driven energy shock from the conflict in Iran pushing inflation and rates higher, and a broadening AI investment boom driving strong earnings momentum across the global economy. AI capital investment has expanded well beyond the hyperscalers to include memory, storage, cooling, data centres, and electrical grid infrastructure, with more than 80% of S&P 500 Q1 reporters beating earnings expectations. Current positioning remains close to neutral at 60% equity, with a continued underweight to U.S. equities in favour of international and emerging markets. Valuations, interest rates, and investor psychology all support staying close to that neutral stance. Cracks in private credit are emerging through rising defaults and client redemption gating. The team is building global credit exposure gradually and is prepared to deploy capital more aggressively when a dislocation occurs. In an environment of competing forces and mixed signals, staying diversified, maintaining valuation discipline, and building portfolios that can withstand multiple scenarios remains the priority.   Host: Andrew Johnson, CFA Institutional Portfolio Manager Guest: Steven Visscher, CFA Investment Counsellor   This episode is available for download anywhere you get your podcasts.

Today, we're talking about neutrality. Now, neutrality can sound mature. Balanced. Careful. Even wise.When truth is on the line, neutrality is not always wisdom. Sometimes it is fear with better manners. Too many leaders hide behind neutrality because conviction has a cost. They don't want conflict, so they choose silence. They don't want pushback, so they call indecision “balance.” Leadership without conviction is not leadership. It is crowd management.So today, we're going to talk about when neutrality becomes dangerous, why silence can become surrender, and why great leaders refuse to settle when truth, integrity, and responsibility are on the line.Let's get into it.

What if the guilt you've been carrying as a working mom isn't proof that you're failing... but a signal that you're unclear on what matters most? In this episode, I challenge the idea that mom guilt is just part of the job description and share why guilt often points to a lack of clarity around priorities, balance, and success. Through real client stories and practical examples, you'll learn how defining what truly matters to you can reduce guilt, increase confidence, and help you feel more in control of your life as a working mom. In this episode, we unpack: Why mom guilt is often a clarity problem, not a parenting problem The hidden connection between guilt and your beliefs about "having it all" How defining your version of balance changes daily decision-making Allison's story of moving from chronic guilt to confidence and calm Practical ways to feel empowered instead of constantly second-guessing yourself Work with me:Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Book a Work-Life Balance Strategy Call: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced-call Book Your Mental Load Reset Call Here (with free Quiz!): www.ambitiousandbalanced.com/strategy Links and References:Listen to Kelly's story: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/279 Listen to Allison's story:www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/280

Today we are continuing in Philippians 2, and we are lookingat verse 25, where the Apostle Paul writes: “Yet I consider it necessary tosend to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier.” Thisman appears only briefly in Scripture, yet he teaches us a tremendous lesson. Epaphroditusno doubt lived in the area of Philippi. He was a follower of Christ, anexemplary Christian, and a man who lived a balanced Christian life. He wastrusted by the people at Philippi. His name actually suggests that he wasprobably a full Gentile, unlike Timothy, who had a Jewish mother and a Greekfather. Yet Epaphroditus was a man who loved the Lord Jesus Christ with all hisheart. Hewas trusted because of his faithfulness over the years. The believers atPhilippi entrusted him with carrying a special gift—perhaps money or othervaluable provisions—to the Apostle Paul while he was imprisoned in Rome. As wewill discover in these verses, he also cared for Paul during his imprisonment. Thisis an interesting man whom we meet only briefly in Scripture. Pauldescribed him in three ways. First, he was a brother. That speaks of hisfellowship with the Apostle Paul. Second, he was a fellow worker. That speaksof his labor. Third, he was a fellow soldier. That speaks of spiritual warfare.As we look at his life through these few verses, we find that he was a balancedChristian. Somebelievers love fellowship but avoid service. Others work hard but neglectrelationships. Still others enjoy debating doctrine but never reach lostpeople. Over the years, I have met many folks who become so interested inprophecy that they do not want the pastor to preach about anything else.Prophecy is all they want to discuss or study. But that is not the balancedChristian life. Epaphroditus maintained balance in his Christian walk. He lovedGod's people. He worked for God's kingdom. He fought for God's truth. He was afellow soldier of Jesus Christ. Thisreminds me of the book of Nehemiah. As Nehemiah and the people rebuilt thewalls of Jerusalem in fifty-two days, they faced constant opposition from theirenemies. Nehemiah stationed the workers on the wall with a sword in one handand a trowel in the other. They were working while remaining ready to battle ata moment's notice. My friend, that is a good description of the Christian life. TheChristian life requires both fellowship and service. We also need to understandthat we are engaged in spiritual warfare. We need accountability. A balancedChristian life includes worship, fellowship, evangelism, service, prayer, andBible study. Iwill never forget my very first semester at Lynchburg Baptist College—todayknown as Liberty University. We had a class co-taught by Dr. Elmer Towns andDr. Jerry Falwell called The Balanced Christian Life. We used a book written byCharles Ryrie entitled “The Balanced Christian Life”. That class was oneof my first introductions as a brand-new believer to what the Christian lifeshould look like. It helped me understand the importance of balance. Atthat point in my life, I was very interested in evangelism. But there is moreto being a Christian than simply trying to get everyone saved. We needfellowship with one another. We need teaching from God's Word. We needopportunities to participate in all the various aspects of Christianliving—giving, prayer, Bible study, service, and worship. A balanced Christianlife makes all the difference. Whenone area is neglected, imbalance develops. We should constantly ask ourselves:Am I still growing in every area of my Christian life, or am I neglectingsomething important? My friend, let us make sure we are like Epaphroditus,living a balanced Christian life. Letus pray. Father, help us become balanced Christians. Teach us to love Yourpeople, serve Your kingdom, and stand for Your truth. Make us faithful workersand faithful soldiers of Jesus Christ. We pray this in Jesus' name. Amen.

Have you ever wondered why you react the way you do in relationships—why you pull away, cling tighter, overthink, or shut down? In this episode of Balanced, Fit & Free, we're diving into the real-life impact of attachment styles and how your early experiences may still be shaping your relationships today—without you even realizing it. But this isn't just about labels like “anxious” or “avoidant.” This is about awareness, compassion, and learning how to come back home to your authentic self—so you can love from a place of security, not survival.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://racheltrotta.com/making-the-changes-that-matter/trigger-foods-clean-eating-and-leveling-the-moral-high-ground/ Quotes to ponder: "When you are chronically stressed, under-rested, or somehow emotionally over-drawn, the great likelihood is that you will be more drawn to these seductive, hyperpalatable foods." "Food is a natural soother, and at those times when you're burned out, at night, after work, for example, food seems like a viable shortcut to serenity." "No food is bad. No food is good."
