In this 10th episode interview, Jason Hartman speaks with Jim Huling about the second edition of his book, The Four Disciplines of Execution. The conversation centers on a framework designed to help individuals and organizations move past the "whirlwind" of daily tasks to achieve wildly important goals. Huling explains that success requires a narrow focus on specific objectives and the use of lead measures to track predictive behaviors. He also emphasizes the importance of engagement through visual scoreboards and maintaining a cadence of accountability among teammates. By shifting from top-down authority to peer-to-peer commitments, leaders can foster a culture of high performance and trust.

In this episode, Travis and his producer Eric dive into a lively conversation about wealth-building, spending habits, investing, and the often-heated debate around personal finance advice. Using examples ranging from Kevin O'Leary's comments on expensive lunches to the power of compound interest, they explore how small financial decisions add up over time. Along the way, they discuss the realities of modern costs of living, the importance of increasing income, and why personal finance advice isn't always one-size-fits-all. On this episode we talk about: How net worth compares across age groups and what it means to be "above average" Why starting to invest young creates an enormous long-term advantage The debate around spending $28 on lunch versus investing that money How everyday spending habits impact long-term wealth accumulation Balancing frugality with increasing your earning power Top 3 Takeaways Time is your greatest investing advantage. Small amounts invested consistently in your 20s and 30s can compound into significant wealth over the course of your lifetime. Financial habits matter more than individual purchases. One expensive lunch won't make or break your finances, but repeated spending patterns can dramatically affect your long-term results. Focus on both saving and earning. Cutting unnecessary expenses helps, but increasing your income creates the flexibility to enjoy life while still building wealth. Notable Quotes "The gap that you can make in your 20s and 30s is going to be the one that actually compounds for the rest of your life." "Two things can be true. You can recognize the pricing is insane while also choosing to eat at home." "Money only solves your money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems when you have money in the bank."

Self-awareness is supposed to make love easier — so why doesn't it? In this episode of I Think I Like You, Clara explores the paradox so many high-achieving, independent women face: years of personal growth and self-work, but relationships still feel just out of reach. She breaks down why "cocooning" and rest matter before re-entering the dating pool, how avoidance around health, mortality, and intimacy quietly shapes our relationship patterns, and what it really means to move from doing to being in the pursuit of love. If you've ever felt behind in dating despite having your life together everywhere else, this episode offers a different way to think about timing, readiness, and the inner work that actually moves the needle.Key Topics:The paradox of self-awareness and relationship challenges among independent womenThe importance of "cocooning" and self-care before pursuing love activelyMoving from doing to being in the pursuit of loveThe influence of societal and internal pressures to "catch up" by a certain ageStrategies to understand genuine desires versus fears-driven actionsTimestamps: 00:00 - Introduction: The high-achiever's paradox in love00:28 - Self-awareness vs. relationship struggles01:22 - Embracing summer and prioritizing outside activity01:48 - The benefits of weightlifting and community classes for mental clarity02:17 - Juggling parenting, deadlines, and personal growth02:47 - Inspiration behind the episode: conversations with women in early 30s03:13 - The desire for independence versus societal pressure to date03:43 - The importance of knowing yourself in your 30s and beyond04:12 - Navigating chaotic early 30s and establishing identity outside work04:41 - The internal conflict: living fully now vs. fear of missing out05:10 - The challenge of dating apps and perceived "behindness"05:42 - Balancing enjoying the present with societal expectations06:09 - The reality of the dating process and emotional avoidance06:39 - Success story: meeting a partner after healing and reflection07:35 - The importance of cocooning and self-care before entering the dating scene08:04 - The power of internal clarity and self-understanding08:33 - Overcoming the wiring to plan and strategize in emotional intimacy09:20 - Recognizing avoidance behaviors in dating efforts09:50 - The different forms of action: doing vs. being10:17 - Facing fears and disillusionment in dating10:44 - Common experiences: flaky dates, lingerers, and ghosting11:27 - Gaining insight through clarity and inner work11:56 - Personal reflections: health screenings and fears of mortality12:23 - Confronting avoidance of self-care and life planning13:15 - Naming fears around mortality and intimacy14:12 - Moving forward through clarity and action14:42 - Connecting fears to relationship patterns and living authentically15:11 - Reflection questions for inner work on relationship fears16:14 - The timeline of meeting a partner and life stages16:41 - The benefits of patience and self-knowledge in love17:29 - The societal pressures of youth and relationship timelines18:04 - Authentic reasons to pursue love and relationship readiness18:59 - The significance of inner work over external actionConnect with Clara:InstagramWebsite

Picture this: a remote coral atoll in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Brutal heat. Cadaver dogs. Archaeologists on their knees sifting through debris, because on this island, coral looks almost identical to bone. And one journalist sitting quietly with her notebook, watching it all unfold — asking the question everyone there is trying to answer: what really happened to Amelia Earhart? That journalist is our guest today. In this episode of Legendary Leaders, host Cathleen O'Sullivan is joined by Rachel Hartigan, who spent 12 years at National Geographic as a writer, reporter and editor, covering everything from the genetics of persimmon trees to the long road to women's suffrage. Before that, she edited the Washington Post's Book World section. She is not the swashbuckling type who dives into underwater pyramids in Sudan. But she has done something arguably harder: she spent years going deep, really deep, into one of history's most enduring mysteries, returning to that Pacific Island not once, but twice. The result is her debut book, Lost: Amelia Earhart's Three Mysterious Deaths and One Extraordinary Life. Rachel and Cathleen explore all three main theories of what happened to Earhart: did she crash into the ocean, die as a castaway on a remote island, or end up in Japanese custody? But what grabbed Cathleen most when she started reading Rachel's book wasn't the mystery. It was the woman herself. Earhart was someone who refused to over explain herself, who did bold and unconventional things simply because they felt right - not to make a point, not to be a rebel, but because her inner compass said so. In an era when women were expected to fit a very particular mould, she didn't. And there is a lesson in that which feels incredibly alive right now. They also talk about what it actually means to be an introvert who built a career on asking strangers the hardest questions. Rachel still dreads picking up the phone before a difficult call and makes it anyway. She separates her anxiety from her ability, which is honestly one of the cleanest pieces of self-awareness you'll hear in a long time. They talk about leaving National Geographic after 12 years, a place that wasn't just a job but a full identity, in the middle of grief, exhaustion and a book deadline. And they talk about what the people still searching for Earhart, some of them obsessive, some willing to upend their entire lives to sail to a remote island, can teach us about the very human need to find answers. Rachel Hartigan is someone who can explain dolphin brains and deep ocean mysteries and make both feel completely alive. We think you're going to love this one.   Episode timeline: 00:01:09 Introducing Rachel Hartigan and the Earhart mystery 00:05:42 Rachel's early life, introversion and career challenges 00:14:49 Managing anxiety, building strategies and proving reliability 00:22:54 Leaving National Geographic: identity and decision 00:26:00 Balancing book writing with full time work 00:34:25 Media trust, bias and information verification 00:44:39 Three competing theories of Earhart's disappearance 00:51:09 Earhart's early adventures and determination 00:56:23 Family influences and personal independence 00:59:04 Authenticity vs rebel image and misconceptions 01:06:33 Rachel's adventures and expedition experiences 01:10:06 Challenges, empathy and family impact Key takeaways: Your anxiety and your ability are two different things: Rachel still dreads making a hard phone call before every single one and makes it anyway. Separating the nervous feeling from the actual skill is what lets her keep doing work that scares her. Not explaining yourself is a form of power: Earhart never justified her choices with a cause or a point to prove. She did things for the fun of it. Rachel calls this the lesson that has stuck with her the longest, and the one women still find hardest to claim. Reliability opens doors you didn't apply for: Rachel built a reputation as someone who could do anything thrown at her, long stories, short stories, dense science, tricky edits. That reputation, not a special qualification, is why she was asked to join the expedition that became her book. Sometimes you have to choose the thing that isn't the smart financial decision: Leaving a 12-year identity in the middle of grief, exhaustion and a deadline wasn't strategic. It was necessary. Rachel calls it one of the hardest and most important choices she's made. Empathy for the obsessive searcher is empathy for the human need to know: People still searching for Earhart nearly 90 years on aren't irrational. Rachel argues the urge to find an answer, however unlikely the odds, is one of the most human impulses there is.   Connect with Rachel Hartigan: Website: https://rachelhartiganauthor.com Book: Lost, available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop.org and at rachelhartiganauthor.com   Connect with Cathleen O'Sullivan:  Business: https://cathleenosullivan.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathleen-osullivan/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/legendary_leaders_cathleenos/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LegendaryLeaderswithCathleenOS FOLLOW LEGENDARY LEADERS ON APPLE, SPOTIFY OR WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO YOUR PODCASTS.

How often do you find yourself treating the lab results instead of the person sitting in front of you? In this episode of the IRH Clinician's Corner, Margaret Floyd Barry is joined by Andrea Nakayama, a functional medicine nutritionist and narrative medicine practitioner renowned for her ability to bridge systems biology with the lived experience of illness. Andrea shares the deeply personal story that ignited her passion for personalized medicine—her late husband's battle with brain cancer—and how this journey revealed critical gaps in the medical system, from treating people as their diagnosis to the pitfalls of one-size-fits-all protocols. Andrea takes us through her pioneering approach to functional nutrition and her evolution into narrative medicine, where the client's story and context become as essential as their lab results. Inside this episode, we explore: Why the most valuable clinical data may come from a client's story, not their lab results How narrative medicine helps practitioners uncover patterns that physiology alone cannot explain The hidden risks of becoming overly reliant on biomarkers, wearables, and external validation Why complex chronic illness often requires curiosity and presence more than increasingly complicated protocols How identity, life transitions, and personal history can influence both illness and healing What it means to move from trying to "fix" clients to walking alongside them as a guide and partner in their health journey If you've ever wondered why some clients know exactly what to do but still struggle to follow through, this free conversation is for you. Join Margaret Floyd Barry and Ishbel Cavaleri on July 14 as they explore the missing link between great protocols and lasting results. You'll discover how beliefs, mindset, and the stories clients tell themselves can influence compliance, consistency, and outcomes far more than another supplement or protocol tweak.

Navigating grief, solo parenting, and her own autoimmune diagnosis, she turned to systems biology to understand the body and narrative medicine to hold the rest. That personal search grew into the Functional Nutrition Alliance, an acquired multi-million-dollar health ed-tech company training thousands of practitioners worldwide. Today she advises at the intersection of functional nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and narrative medicine — with a focus on women in midlife and beyond.    Keywords: functional medicine, narrative medicine, personalized medicine, chronic disease, clinical skills, lab testing, functional nutrition, patient care, symptom suppression, systems biology, health coaching, client compliance, menopause, hormone therapy, women's health, health industry, storytelling in healthcare, trauma-informed care, lifestyle modification, blood sugar balance, adrenal testing, identity and illness, practitioner-patient relationship, nervous system regulation, autoimmunity, complex chronic cases, evidence-based strategies, qualitative data, quantitative data, patient-centered care, health span Disclaimer: The views expressed in the IRH Clinician's Corner series are those of the individual speakers and interviewees, and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Institute of Restorative Health, LLC.

Episode 4 of Rethinking EHS, Season 3 focuses on the fast-growing data center sector and the need to balance speed, innovation, and sustainability. The episode explores how global demand for digital infrastructure is accelerating rapidly, driven by cloud adoption, AI, and increasing digital consumption, while physical constraints such as power, space, and water are shaping where and how data centres are developed. Emerging hubs like Milan are gaining prominence as traditional markets reach capacity, supported by evolving regulatory frameworks that are beginning to recognise data centers as strategic infrastructure. Looking ahead, the industry's future will depend on improving safety maturity, strengthening collaboration across the supply chain, and ensuring data centers are developed as responsible “neighbours” that minimise environmental impact. Ultimately, global collaboration, combined with local knowledge, will be key to scaling the sector sustainably and building a more resilient digital infrastructure. --- Guest quotes: Julie Kreger-King: “There's a real tension between the need for speed and the need to put strong systems and processes in place.” Alessandro Intile: “We are not building warehouses or chemical plants—we are exactly in the middle, with risks that must be carefully managed.” --- Timestamps: 00:00:00 – Introduction & data centre growth overview 00:01:10 – What's driving global demand (cloud, AI, digitalisation) 00:02:31 – Emerging hubs and regulatory developments in Europe 00:04:25 – Regulatory differences between regions 00:05:51 – Why data centres are a critical EHS focus area 00:08:08 – Safety maturity across the sector 00:10:10 – Balancing speed vs systems and processes 00:12:21 – Technology evolution and new risk factors 00:14:03 – Supply chain and quality challenges 00:16:06 – Brownfield development and environmental risks 00:20:13 – Overlooked risks: noise, fuel storage, permitting 00:22:35 – Achieving global consistency vs local requirements 00:28:24 – Advice for EHS professionals entering the sector 00:32:31 – Future ESG priorities and industry maturity 00:36:03 – The role of global collaboration 00:38:01 – Closing reflections --- Sponsor Copy Rethinking EHS is brought to you by the Inogen Alliance.

Still tired in midlife… even when you're trying to eat healthy? In this episode of the Hello Hormones series on Fit & Fueled by Faith, I'm sharing what I personally eat in midlife to support energy, hormones, strength, and overall wellness. Because what worked in our 20s and 30s often stops working in midlife and many women are left feeling exhausted, frustrated, and confused about what their body actually needs now. In this episode, we talk about: • Why nutrition changes in midlife • The importance of protein for women over 40 • Balancing blood sugar and energy • My pescatarian, Mediterranean-inspired approach • Simple ways to nourish your body without restriction This isn't about perfection. It's about learning to support your body with wisdom and grace.

What would you do if someone tells you that you're not built for the thing you love most?In today's episode of The Evolving Adventurer, I chat with ultrarunner, coach, mom and adventurer Bri Boley. What started off as a funny case of mistaken identity at Javelina Jundred this past October led to a powerful conversation about grit, self-belief, and choosing your own path—even when “experts,” injuries, and fear suggest otherwise. Bri shares how a physical therapist once told her she didn't have a "runner's body.” That comment—or her Aries nature—fueled her determination: she went from struggling through three-mile runs and finishing last at a 5K race to thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, racing ultramarathons, and coaching endurance athletes around the world.We venture into the challenges, and realities, of balancing adventure, motherhood, work, and training. Bri opens up about creating guilt-free time for herself, unexpected superpowers that come from being a busy parent, and why sustainable success is about much more than mileage, heart rate data, or race results. You'll learn lessons that transcend the endurance space: different perspectives on long-term growth, resilience, and building a life that supports your passions.Whether you're an athlete, entrepreneur, healer, parent, or simply someone trying to reconnect with the things that make you feel most alive, today's conversation is packed with wisdom, humor, and inspiration. From solo backpacking adventures at 17 to Cocodona crewing stories to rediscovering joy after burnout, Bri reminds us all that sometimes the most important journey isn't about going farther—it's about returning to who you were before the world told you what you could or couldn't become.Comment BRI and I'll send you the link.Timestamps:02:29 - How a whim led to eleven years living in a mountain town 03:36 - Bree's upbringing in Corvallis, Oregon, and her early sports journey 05:24 - From cheerleading to running and overcoming injury challenges 07:51 - Discovering her passion for trail and ultrarunning 11:25 - Building endurance through long-distance hikes and trail adventures 12:47 - Transition to ultrarunning with the Colorado Trail and PCT 13:36 - The mindset of grit and determination that drives her pursuits 16:24 - How her own injury history fuels her coaching approach 17:50 - The importance of long-term vision in athletic development 22:08 - Supporting athletes of all levels with empathy and process-oriented goals 25:58 - Balancing training with family life and mom superpowers 28:34 - The significance of time efficiency and intentional self-care 32:36 - Embracing solo adventures to build resilience and confidence 36:28 - Crewing at Cocodona and supporting incredible performances 43:02 - Bri's upcoming challenge: Oregon Outback 230 in 2026 50:03 - Her love for exploring new trails and avoiding race repetition 58:36 - The power of solitude and quiet in long-distance adventures 62:03 - Connecting with Bree: social media and coaching opportunitiesResources & Links:TrainRight Coaching — Bri's coaching platformCascade Endurance — Endurance coaching organizationBorn to Run by Christopher McDougall — Book that inspired BriWonderland Trail — Epic trail around Mount RainierInstagram — Social media profile

Most people wait for change to arrive in a dramatic package. A breakthrough. A sign. A better plan. Graham Hobson's story reminds us that real growth is quieter than that. It arrives through repetition, through coaching, through the willingness to be bad at something long enough to become good. As PhotoBox scaled, the lesson was not how to find one perfect move, but how to build a way of thinking that could absorb pressure, learn from friction, and keep expanding without collapsing under the weight of ambition. That's the work. Not chasing certainty. Not demanding speed. Building the capacity to evolve. Growth mindset is not motivational wallpaper. It is the discipline of becoming someone who can handle the next version of the challenge. Focus on becoming more adaptable. Trade urgency for durable progress. Build capacity before you need it. If you're ready to rethink what growth really looks like, this episode is worth your time.

Few athletes have transcended their sport quite like Shaquille O'Neal. A four-time NBA champion, Hall of Famer, entrepreneur, investor, entertainer, and media personality, Shaq has built an extraordinary career both on and off the basketball court. In this episode, Travis reflects on one of his all-time favorite interviews, sharing the biggest lessons he learned from his conversation with his childhood hero. From parenting and relationships to investing and personal growth, Shaq delivers timeless wisdom grounded in experience, humility, and respect. On this episode we talk about: Why respect is the foundation of healthy relationships and conversations Parenting lessons and adapting your approach to each child Balancing friendship and discipline as a parent The relationship between networking, expertise, and opportunity Shaq's framework for being a great husband, father, and man Top 3 Takeaways Respect creates stronger relationships and healthier conversations. You don't have to agree with someone to treat them with dignity and respect. Relationships open doors, but expertise keeps you in the room. Building connections matters, but developing real skills and knowledge is what creates lasting success. Great parenting requires balance. The best parents combine discipline, guidance, and genuine connection while recognizing that every child is different. Notable Quotes "If we just went back to truly respecting each other's thoughts and opinions, a lot of the division we see today would start to fade." "Who you know opens the door, but what you know keeps you in the room." "The three jobs of a man are to protect, provide, and love."

In this episode of Travis Makes Money, Travis and producer Eric react to viral social media creator Granny Bibbins and her controversial takes on grocery spending, inflation, and personal finance. What starts as a discussion about food costs quickly evolves into a deeper conversation about consumer habits, entitlement, lifestyle inflation, and the difference between acknowledging economic challenges and taking personal responsibility. Travis shares lessons from successful entrepreneurs who built wealth by living below their means and explains why financial discipline still matters—even in a more expensive world. On this episode we talk about: The debate over rising grocery prices and inflation Whether cooking at home still saves money in today's economy The impact of lifestyle inflation on long-term wealth building Why successful entrepreneurs often delay gratification Balancing personal responsibility with economic realities Top 3 Takeaways Two things can be true at once: the cost of living has increased dramatically, and many people still overspend on conveniences they don't truly need. Building wealth often requires saying "no" to short-term luxuries so you can say "yes" to bigger opportunities later. Complaining about economic conditions won't change your financial future—taking action and controlling what you can will. Notable Quotes "Nobody's ever going to care more about your personal finances than you are." "I don't think enough people are willing to say no to the excess." "Money only solves your money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems when you've got some money in the bank."

Welcome back to Barn Talk! In today's episode, we have an inspiring conversation with Rick Anglin, a fourth-generation dairy farmer from Arizona who made the bold decision to leave behind the conventional dairy business after 17 years and forge a new path for his family's future. Rick tells the remarkable story of how he bet it all to start Fond du Lac Farms- a fully integrated raw milk operation where they raise the cows, bottle the milk, and deliver it directly to grocery shelves. We dive deep into the challenges of cutting out the middleman, the transition from commodity agriculture to building a premium, direct-to-consumer brand, the power of faith and family in weathering tough times, and what it takes to build a truly generational business. Whether you're in agriculture or just looking for real-world entrepreneurship lessons, get ready for an episode packed with practical wisdom on risk, resilience, and redefining success.

He explains the strengths and limitations of current screening strategies, reviews the recommendations from major medical organizations, and discusses why screening guidance can often seem confusing or contradictory. Peter outlines a practical framework for understanding breast cancer risk and personalizing screening decisions, including when to begin screening, how frequently to screen, and which imaging modalities may be most appropriate based on an individual's risk profile. Throughout the episode, he emphasizes that while population-based guidelines provide an important foundation, optimizing outcomes requires a more personalized approach aimed at helping women make informed screening decisions that can improve the chances of early detection and successful treatment. We discuss: Why women still die from breast cancer: the benefits of screening, the problem of under-screening, and the need for risk-based screening strategies [1:45]; Current screening recommendations, why they differ between organizations, and the importance of personalized screening decisions [6:30]; A framework for personalizing screening [8:45]; Assessing baseline breast cancer risk: genetics, family history, breast density, lifestyle factors, and the role of risk calculators in personalized screening [9:30]; Balancing cancer detection and false positives: how breast cancer risk influences screening intensity and imaging choices [17:45]; Mammography as the foundation of breast cancer screening: detecting ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and the advantages of 3D versus 2D mammography [21:00]; MRI for high-risk women: the benefits of supplemental screening, abbreviated MRI, and the emerging role of contrast-enhanced mammography [23:00]; The role of ultrasound: supplemental cancer detection, diagnostic evaluation, and limitations compared with mammography and MRI [26:00]; Choosing the right breast cancer screening strategy: imaging modality selection, screening hierarchies, and the importance of imaging center quality [28:00]; How often should you screen for breast cancer? [30:15]; At what age should you start screening? [37:30]; Breast cancer in younger women: aggressive tumor biology, BRCA-related risk, breast density, and individualized decisions about when to begin screening [41:45]; Inflammatory breast cancer, the limitations of screening mammography for symptomatic disease, and the importance of promptly evaluating new breast symptoms in both women and men [44:45]; From risk assessment to personalized screening: a practical framework for reducing breast cancer mortality through earlier and more effective detection [46:30]; and More.
