So many of us quietly believe that permanent healing isn't possible — that we'll always feel “a little bit broken,” or that we'll have to keep managing the same patterns forever.But that's not true.Healing isn't meant to be a series of Band-Aids — a few therapy sessions here, a meditation retreat there, a burst of self-care when things get hard. Those things can help… but only for a while.Real, lasting healing begins when you stop patching symptoms and start addressing what's underneath — the parts of you that are protecting the wound, the nervous system patterns that keep looping, and the way those inner imbalances show up in your relationships.In this week's episode of Your Brain on Trauma, I'm sharing my No More Band-Aids model — a framework I use with my clients to help them access deep, permanent healing.You'll learn:Why temporary fixes can actually keep you stuckThe three ingredients that create real, lasting change: mind, body, and loveHow Internal Family Systems, polyvagal theory, and somatic work come together to rewire old trauma loopsWhy healing your inner world is the key to safe, authentic relationshipsTimestamps:02:16 “No More Band-Aids”: why quick fixes don't work06:29 The three ingredients of permanent healing (Mind–Body–Love)07:55 IFS explained: protectors, exiles & Self13:27 Nervous system work: polyvagal & somatic basics16:23 Relationships as a mirror; authentic communication20:46 Putting it together: the path to lasting changeIf you've been trying to “fix” yourself and wondering why it never lasts, this episode will show you what's been missing.Oh—and if you have something you're navigating and would love my take on it...

GDP Script/ Top Stories for October 23rd Publish Date: October 23rd PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, October 23rd and Happy birthday to Weird Al Yankovich I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. 'Fall back' — Daylight Saving Time ends Nov. 2 Gwinnett Tech hosts inaugural Gryphon Gratitude Breakfast Georgians react to Instagram 'PG-13' rating policy Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sweet tooths All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Ingles Markets 6 STORY 1: 'Fall back' — Daylight Saving Time ends Nov. 2 Like it or not, it’s that time again—Daylight Saving Time ends on Nov. 2, and we “fall back” an hour. Darker evenings, groggy mornings, and maybe an extra cup of coffee (or three). But does this time shift really matter anymore? Dr. Jason Delaney, an economics professor at Georgia Gwinnett College, doesn’t think so. “It was about saving energy back when lighting and heating were inefficient, and air conditioning didn’t exist. That’s not the world we live in now,” he said. “Economically, the impact is minimal.” Psychologist Dr. David Ludden sees it differently: “It messes with your body. We’re not built to adjust quickly—our sleep cycles rely on light cues.” His advice? Get outside in natural light or use bright indoor lights during the day to help reset your internal clock. So, while the time change might feel like a relic of the past, it still throws us off—at least for a little while. STORY 2: Gwinnett Tech hosts inaugural Gryphon Gratitude Breakfast On Oct. 15, Gwinnett Tech Foundation hosted its first-ever Gryphon Gratitude Breakfast, and the room was packed—150 donors, students, and community partners all gathered to celebrate the life-changing power of giving. It wasn’t just about handshakes and thank-yous. Students stood up and shared raw, personal stories—how scholarships kept them in school, how the Foundation gave them a shot at a future they almost gave up on. “Every donation has a face,” said Darcie Johnson, the Foundation’s executive director. “You’re not just giving money—you’re changing lives.” The event wrapped with a challenge: “Fuel Your Purpose.” A reminder to give, to act, to make it count. STORY 3: Georgians react to Instagram 'PG-13' rating policy Meta’s new “PG-13” filter for Instagram? Let’s just say Georgians aren’t exactly buying it. The company claims the filter will block posts with strong language, risky stunts, or content promoting harmful behaviors—like drug paraphernalia. Sounds good on paper, right? But critics are calling it a PR stunt, not a real solution. Sharon Winkler, who lost her 17-year-old son Alex to suicide in 2017, isn’t convinced. “This feels like another empty promise to make parents feel safe,” she said. Counselor Laura Ladefian agrees. “Filters won’t fix the algorithms that make these platforms addictive,” she said. “It’s like putting a Band-Aid on a broken arm.” We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 4: State names Suwanee an 'exceptional' main street city Suwanee’s got some bragging rights—officially. The Georgia Department of Community Affairs just named it one of the state’s newest Georgia Exceptional Main Street (GEMS) communities. Canton snagged the other spot, but let’s focus on Suwanee for a second. Why the honor? It’s all about their downtown. Public spaces, smart planning, and a vibe that mixes charm with progress. Earning GEMS status isn’t easy. Cities have to prove they’re not just growing economically but also keeping their unique character intact. Suwanee nailed it. STORY 5: AMC brings first new Dolby Experience to Gwinnett since 2017 Big news for movie lovers in Gwinnett—Dolby Cinema is back after an eight-year hiatus. This past weekend, AMC unveiled its brand-new Dolby Cinema at the AMC Dine-In Webb Gin 11 on Scenic Highway in unincorporated Lawrenceville. It’s the first Dolby Experience in the county since 2017, and honestly? It’s a game-changer. Think ultra-vivid colors, insane brightness, and sound so immersive it feels like it’s crawling up your spine. Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos combine to make every scene hit harder—like you’re in the movie, not just watching it. This upgrade came after three months of renovations, and AMC isn’t stopping here. They’re planning 40 more Dolby locations nationwide, aiming for over 200 total. For now, though, Gwinnett’s got something to brag about.

I don't know about you, but I want to do more than manage schedules and be a chauffeur in my own life. I want to have good habits that lead to a connection with my family. Many habit books talk about how to revolutionize our lives, but so many of them focus on professional success, and that's not really the metric I'm chasing. I want to learn to do the hard things in my relational life and in my home. Today I'm chatting with Min. She's a homeschool mom and on the board of the Charlotte Mason Institute. She leads many coaching groups that help moms succeed in their homes or in their small businesses. -What inspired you to do more than just survive everyday life? -What are some of the Band-Aids you notice moms use to get through the day? -What is a better way to have clarity around our goals as moms? - What is the first step a mom can do to start training herself to do hard things?

Kickstart your Tuesday with Kevin and Alex on The Need to Know Morning Show! In this lively October 21st edition, the guys swap stories from a weekend of home repairs gone sideways (double Band-Aids, anyone?), gripe about the relentless Fargo wind, and share a good laugh over caramel apple crisp and “Back to the Future” Day. But it's not all small talk — they dig into headlines, from a mysterious “hunting stand” near Air Force One's runway to Speaker Mike Johnson's fiery comments about protests and politics. You'll also catch sports updates (Blue Jays in the Series, local high school matchups), weather with Dino (“hang onto your hat!”), and a thoughtful farm and ag report from Bridget Riedel on corn diseases and harvest prep.
On this week's episode of the Music History In Depth Podcast, a BBC News report on the Ethiopian famine inspires Bob Geldof to create Band Aid & Live Aid, we discuss a hostage ordeal during a musical that ended badly, a law that to this day has seriously annoying implications for everyone, & how flipping a marketing plan around led to a Broadway concept album.

There are a number of people advocating a diet low in oxalates, essentially eliminating many green leafy vegetables, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, celery, most nuts, berries, cocoa, and numerous otherwise healthy foods. Unfortunately, this advice is misguided and based on an incomplete understanding of the evidence. While there is no harm in reducing dietary oxalates beyond inconvenience, lack of variety, and the absence of many genuinely healthy foods, reducing oxalate exposure is not the primary problem, just a Band-Aid. Oxalate hyperabsorption is due to disruption of the gastrointestinal microbiome: loss of the many species that metabolize oxalates but were eliminated or reduced due to antibiotic exposure, and the development of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, SIBO, that is associated with abnormally increased oxalate absorption. Address the disrupted gastrointestinal and dietary oxalate consumption is no longer an issue for the vast majority of people.In this episode of the Defiant Health podcast, let's discuss why so many people have been misled by this dietary oxalate issue and a smarter way to deal with what might be interpreted as oxalate intolerance.

In our latest Leadership in Insurance Podcast episode, I sat down with Garrett Droege (SVP, Director of Innovation & Digital Risk Practice Leader at IMA Financial) for a fascinating discussion on InsurTech with some thought-provoking insights that challenge conventional thinking about insurance technology.With 20 years exclusively on the brokerage side, Garrett brings a unique perspective as a former startup founder and self-taught software developer. As both Innovation Lead and Digital Risk Practice Leader at IMA, his role sounds incredibly broad, but as Garrett says, both sides serve each other—you need wide ranging touchpoints across tech ecosystems to stay ahead in both innovation and risk.In this episode, we cover: Build vs. Buy Decision Framework: Garrett's approach is clear: build customer-facing proprietary solutions that differentiate your business and serve your customers, but make sure it works with existing technology. The POC Framework That Actually Works: Forget 12-month POCs that drag on and lose momentum. Garrett advocates for highly targeted, 45-60 day maximum POCs with clear KPIs and the right team selection upfront. His advice to founders? "You think you want a 12-month contract. You don't. Let's prove your platform works fast and furiously, or let's wait until you're ready."The Bold Take: Garrett's view on how the industry has gone about InsurTech all wrong and allowed it to become a series of Band-Aids for the real problem: antiquated core systems from the 1980s and 90s that were built before APIs even existed. The result? Frankenstein workflows requiring 7-15 platforms to complete a single task, with 80% of users still working around the technology the same way they did 20 years ago.The AI Wake-Up Call: Despite AI being "transformational unlike anything we've ever seen" (and Garrett argues it's under-hyped), its promise is severely limited without access to core data systems. Garrett stated "You could build a fully agentic AI brokerage much easier than you could reverse engineer and retrofit an existing brokerage."The Investment Landscape: With 80% of recent Y Combinator and Broker Tech Ventures companies being AI-focused InsurTech solutions, the momentum is undeniable. The dot-com parallels are real—there will be winners and losers, and consolidation is coming.What Technology Can't Replace: Despite all the transformation, some challenges remain timeless: renewal management, client communication, trust-building. As Garrett notes, these require human expertise that AI augments rather than replaces.This conversation is essential listening for anyone in insurance, InsurTech, or risk management. The future of insurance isn't just about innovation—it's about getting the foundation right first. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-sixteenth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by the Senior Medical Operations Officer Observer-Coach-Trainer for the Task Force Sustainment (BSB / CSSB), CPT Victor Velez on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guest is CPT Christina Pierce, the Officer-in-Charge, Joint Aid Station-Rear (JAS-R) attached to Bayne Jones Army Community Hospital on Fort Polk, LA. This episode of The Crucible podcast focuses on the coordination and integration of medical operations from Role I through Role 2+, with particular emphasis on the Joint Aid Station-Rear (JAS-R) at the JRTC. The discussion outlines how units often underestimate the staffing, equipment, and Class VIII requirements needed to effectively run a JAS-R. Leaders are reminded that the JAS-R is designed to function as a Role I facility with limited expansion, and its true effectiveness is shaped by what the unit brings—particularly providers, medics, and a robust Class VIII package. A bare minimum staffing model (one provider and 12 medics split across shifts) is described as unsustainable, with best practices suggesting multiple providers and additional medics to manage patient flow, casualty movement, and external appointments. The podcast highlights how equipment such as exam tables, AEDs, suction systems, and crash carts are available in the facility, but units must stock and maintain them. The conversation further emphasizes coordination with JRTC JAS-R staff and Bayne-Jones Army Community Hospital (BJACH) at Ft. Polk to ensure proper credentialing, MHS Genesis access, and Class VIII ordering prior to arrival. Units are cautioned against arriving with inadequate supplies or relying solely on CTC funds allocation for replenishment, which is intended for sustainment, not initial stocking. Critical points include managing referrals to BJACH and local civilian hospitals, establishing transportation plans for follow-up care, and ensuring effective communication between providers, medics, and the white cell for accountability and patient tracking. The episode stresses that medical planning is not just a surgeon's responsibility but a command responsibility, and leaders must treat the JAS-R as a training opportunity and readiness rehearsal for the demands of LSCO.

Gary Kemp, whose career highlights as a musician and actor include writing Spandau Ballet's seminal hit "True," tells us about about the time David Bowie almost made Gary's son late for a playdate; going on a bender with Duran Duran the night before the 1984 Band Aid recording session: and why he and his old mate, Def Leppard's Joe Elliott, charted different musical paths even though they were fans of the same bands.

Comic books are fun when they're fiction. But here's the catch: the system is scripting your life like one — panels, villains, heroes, and all. In this episode of The Morning Drive, Jason rips back the panels to reveal how comic book logic is used to shrink your freedoms while keeping you clapping for the “heroes.” You'll discover how to: ✅ Spot the Villain's Toolbox — the 5 tricks used to sell fear, safety, and division. ✅ Recognize the Lost Heroes — real independence stories that never make the panels. ✅ See Behind the Panels — how headlines are drawn like comics, and how to read the hidden script. Jason shares his own fight for freedom — from grinding 20-hour IT shifts during corporate takeovers, to breaking free of paycheck-to-paycheck chains, to rebuilding health despite chronic injuries. These aren't theories — they're lived scars, and they prove you don't have to stay a background extra.
Checkers looks simple—hop, hop, king me. But here's the catch: that's exactly how the system wants you to live.

Sal laid out a fiery indictment of the Mets' current situation, arguing that the Arizona Diamondbacks are now a legitimate threat to their playoff hopes. He dismissed the idea that the D-backs' tougher remaining schedule would save the Mets, pointing to the Mets' own disastrous performance and the systemic issues within the organization. Sal hammered the team's record-setting use of 46 pitchers and its "Band-Aid" approach to the rotation, which he says is a direct result of GM David Stearns' flawed offseason strategy. With key players either underperforming or injured, Sal believes the Mets are "playing with fire" and are in real danger of missing the postseason.
Rice Krispie Treats look sweet, but they're mostly sugar and air. Sound familiar? That's how most of our modern “solutions” work—quick fixes that leave us hollow. In this episode of The Morning Drive, Jason exposes the Rice Krispie logic that sneaks into our finances, habits, and daily choices. You'll discover how to: ✅ Tell the difference between empty “treats” and real fuel. ✅ Break free from quick-fix traps that drain your energy. ✅ Build substance that lasts—skills, savings, and independence. If you've been chasing short-term comfort and want to build real freedom instead, this episode will show you how to make the swap.

In Get Well Soon: Week One, Pastor Aaron McRae unpacks what it truly means to experience lasting transformation through Jesus. While the world often offers band-aid solutions to deep pain, Jesus goes straight to the heart—because real change starts within.Through Mark 7 and other key scriptures, Pastor Aaron contrasts outward traditions with the inward renewal Jesus brings. He challenges us to stop focusing on appearances or quick fixes and instead allow Jesus to purify our hearts, where sin and brokenness originate. This message is for anyone longing for wholeness, healing, and hope that only Christ can give.Key ScripturesMark 7:1–23 – Jesus teaches that defilement comes from the heartMatthew 23 – Cleaning the inside firstActs 10 & 15 – God purifies hearts by faithRomans 1:21; 3:23–24; 6:23; 10:9–10 – The heart of the gospelPsalm 51:10 – “Create in me a pure heart”James 4:8 – Purify your heartsMark 12:30 – Love God with all your heartKey Resources & Quotes-The Relational Soul by Cofield & Plass — “Change is possible, but it is harder than we want and takes longer than we expect.”-M.

Welcome to or welcome back to the Retreat Leaders podcast at Shannon. And today I've got an amazing guest on the show that I am so excited to dig into our topic today because I feel like if it wasn't already so very important, it's becoming more and more important every day in the business world that we live in. So welcome, Kara to the show. Kara 00:00:46 Thank you for having me, Shannon. Excited to be here. Shannon 00:00:49 I'm so excited you're here. So Kara Hollinger is on the show. And do you just want to take a moment to tell us, like, who you are? What brought you here? Like, talk to us about who you are. Kara 00:00:59 Definitely. My background is in brand development and design as well as strategy, and I started Made outside. I'm the founder and we specialize in building brands with authenticity, transparency and trust so that the consumer will lean into that purpose and story and then choose you over another competitor. So in most cases, that level of authenticity and storytelling is what drives a consumer into the purchasing ability. And so through design and award winning design, I was able to actually take my intuition and my understanding of marketability and then design and merge that with design, which has been a really great outcome for our clients. And I'm a big supporter of wellness and retreats and leadership. And I think that combining brand purpose into, you know, whether it's a retreat or a leader or even a brand is the key to success in today's market, where it's very convoluted, it's hard to tell who's authentic or who isn't. And that's what we do for all of our clients. And we've had really great success. Shannon 00:02:06 I love this. Okay, so I love this for so many reasons, but especially because just like you mentioned, like if you are not presenting yourself in an authentic but also appealing way specifically to your demographic, then you are missing the boat. Shannon 00:02:24 And I know that a lot of things that you work on is brand strategy and social media presence, as well as website presence. And I think, I think it gets really underrated in the retreat world. I think people just put together a very, in my very humble opinion, a crappy landing page that has maybe a couple of pictures that do not look as good as they should look. and it's just, I mean, I see more and more of them and I'm like, oh my goodness. Like, there's an investment that has to be made in this business if you are wanting to it to be a business. And everybody knows that I'm big on like I, I don't do retreats for a hobby. I don't teach people how to do retreats for hobby. I teach you to do it as a business. And part of business in this world is investing in your social media and your website presence and brand strategy. Because I feel like it's got to tell a story. All of this has to tell a story. Kara 00:03:16 Definitely. And the world of templated websites and put something up with, you know, Squarespace or Wix. Those types of solutions do exist, and they can be successful, but only if they're brought into authenticity and something that's unique for you. Because if we all land on something that feels the same or doesn't feel authentic or is just another batch of stock photos, it's going to be really hard to get somebody to invest their time and money to stop what they're doing, fly and try. They're seeking something to go to a retreat they're seeking. And if you can't collectively tell them what they're going to get in a way that feels safe and authentic, then they're going to start to look elsewhere, or they're going to start to overthink the decision and then possibly not juju at all. So getting to the heart of what makes you different and why you started the retreat, or why this solution is going to be good for the person coming. That is the key to all of it. And you can do that. Kara 00:04:10 So simply with just words and visuals, it doesn't have to be a whole big investment. It's really about how you tell that story and then making sure it doesn't look like everyone else that you're seeing out there. Shannon 00:04:22 I couldn't agree more. So I the way I do my retreat bookings is probably a little different than some people. As far as they don't have to talk to me, they don't have to set an appointment with me. They don't have to be pre-screened by me. I just don't run those types of retreats. There are a there's a time and place for that. But I share that with you because people who don't know me at all are literally. I mean, I'll get on my my registration forms. Where did you find me? Google. So they're finding me and they're booking because of my landing page, because of my messaging, because of my image, because of the story, because of how I'm marketing them. And so that's the bulk of my registrations, or pretty close to 6,570%. Shannon 00:05:00 The other 25 to 30% is coming from referral or repeat guest. Or they've been listening to me and following me a long time, whatever. But the bulk of my my retreats are registrations are coming because of how my messaging is reaching them and the way that it's presented. And so when I tell you this is so important, I mean, this is so important. And even if you are someone, a host who, you know, you want to interview them first, they have to apply, they have to whatever. It's still the same thing. They're not even going to fill up that form to set an appointment with you if your messaging doesn't resonate, if it looks like, you know, a junior high schooler, put the whole thing together. You know what I mean? And I see this a lot in the retreat space where it's like, I don't know why my retreats not filling. I'm like, well, we're just going to start here. There's probably a whole lot of other stuff going on. Shannon 00:05:50 But also we're going to start right here. And I love that you talked about trust and authenticity Because I think you and I both know we live in the world now, where if we hear about a company or an organization or anybody we're going to give our money to, where's the first place we look? Nowadays it's social media. You know what I mean? Yes, it's their website, but we usually are on their website, and then we go find them on social media to really validate who they are. What are your thoughts on that. Kara 00:06:17 100% and the consistency between both stops, as well as how you email or solicit, has to be consistent and equally as professional. So somebody reached out to me recently and I thought it was very engaging. But then I went and found them on social and it was filled with stuff that was not authentic. It was really sloppy and done by I, and I immediately bounced. And so that originality is as important and the sales not going to come through just your site. Kara 00:06:45 It is through learning and engaging as well as social hearing, trust building and the social aspect has to reassure them that where they're coming, It's not just safe. Like, am I going to get hurt? But it's safe. Like I'm making the right investment. And is this what I'm looking for? Because when people are out there seeking these types of scenarios, they're actually looking to either feel better, find vision, reset, meet people. a lot of it's around feeling better, but it could be a series of just letting go. It could be. But if you don't show up and understand what you signed up for, or if what you see online is actually authentic to the experience you're going to get when you show up, it's that validation on social that actually confirms a sale. So 100%, and just so everybody knows, a brand is not a logo. A brand is how you show up as a company or as a person in every aspect the photography, your voice, your social, how you, send them the materials to get ready for the retreat, to how you answer the phone. Kara 00:07:53 It's all important. And that brand as a whole needs to look and feel the same across all platforms. And if it doesn't, it doesn't have to be custom. With a big, huge website. It could be a simple website, but the visuals and the storytelling needs to be simple and consistent across all touchpoints. Shannon 00:08:11 Oh, okay, now you're really talking my language because it's not just a one stop. It's not just the website, although that typically is. The starting point is sometimes it might be the social. That's the starting point, but they're quickly going to make their way to the website. They're going to make their way to both. Right. Period. It's 100%. So yeah. So there's multiple touch points. And then also the communication right away. Like if they make contact with you, what does that communication look like when they register. The whole process is part of your brand. And I'm so glad that you are clarifying that it's not a logo. I can't tell you how many times people get caught up in my in what my logo is. Shannon 00:08:40 That's everything. Listen, it's a very small. Believe it or not, part of the picture, right? Kara 00:08:45 It's like one pillar of your body, you know, it's like it's a small piece of the thing. And it's important that it resonates too. But people aren't going to hire you because of your logo. They're going to hire you because of how you feel. And if you have that element of attraction or law of attraction that bring you in, that is 100% aligned on every touchpoint. Because if it's really cool here, then they go somewhere else and they're getting a different experience. You automatically lost trust and that's why the consistency is key. Shannon 00:09:14 Yeah I so agree. So I love this. So we're talking about that. Your website has a look and feel and verbiage and energy to it. So should your social media match. So should your emails show. So should all. Everything should match that look and feel and energy that you are trying to create. And I think sometimes we don't know what that even is or how it should look. Shannon 00:09:37 Unless we work with someone like you or an organization that can help us see that. Because sometimes we just get caught up in the logo or, you know, whatever it is. And we're thinking, I'm going to just do this on Canva. I'm going to create a logo, pick a couple colors, and then I'm done. Kara 00:09:53 Exactly. And I am a big believer in Canva and we use it. We personally don't use it. We set our clients up with Canva templates. Once we're done doing our job so that that consistency piece is key. And you have to think of it as, how you meet anybody. Like you're going to go and say, hi, my name is Karen. Wait outside. But that's not enough. Like, you need to speak of who you are and why you're different in order to get attention. And it's the same for your brand. So like, just because I people like my dress and I dress very simple today, but say that was a compliment. They're not going to hire me because of my dress, they're going to hire me because of the whole picture. Kara 00:10:32 And that's why that logo is it's important that it doesn't, you know, it's legible, it's attractive. It doesn't feel dated, it doesn't feel too trendy. Like those are things that we need to look for for the logo. But that is like third of importance as to the whole picture. And that consistency and transparency is really reigning above the way the logo looks and what your color palette is. And I get asked a lot of times. Like we just see the logo on an updated color palette and I'm like, okay, but then you're going to need these things. And so we have to coach them on. When they put that new logo somewhere, it's not going to spike sales. It's not going to spike the call. What's going to spike that? Is that again I hear you I feel you I see you. That is the piece that is the component that you want to reach your consumers. And if you can figure out how to word that and how to make it feel like that through your brand, your sales will increase and you will get stickier. Kara 00:11:27 And they not only will love it, but then they're going to come and they're going to get the experience. They expected it, and they're going to go home and tell the people, and then they're also going to share it on social. So that viral ness is important in that first step. Shannon 00:11:39 Hey, retreat leaders, pause that retreat planning for just a second because I've got something you do not want to miss. I'm headed to London this October to host a live event that's all about teaching you how to host a retreat that's not just transformational, but actually profitable. Imagine sipping tea or champagne with other like minded leaders while mapping out your next sold out retreat. It's happening at the gorgeous Waldorf Hilton in London. I'm spilling all the secrets from pricing to planning, marketing to mindset, and you'll walk away with a strategy you can actually use. No fluff, no BS, just results. So head to Retreat mastermind training and come join me across the pond. Yes. Okay, so I love this because a lot of retreat leaders don't know how to word it. Shannon 00:12:25 They don't. They don't know how to position it. They're like, well, here's here's they hopefully know who they can serve, right? Who their ideal guest is. Hopefully they know that and they know the problem that they can solve or solve for that person, but then they don't know where to go from there. And is that something that you and your group does that they can help? Kara 00:12:42 Conditioning is is everything, to be honest. and we really want that to be stable and established and and Attractive before the visuals ever get involved. because that like, you need to think of not what you like, not your personal style and your personal preference. You need to think of what the person you're wanting to show up needs and what they need to see and feel. And again, you got to know the emotion. Every retreats different. Some are more fitness, some are more wellness, some are more mental health, some are more silent. You know, relaxation. But what are what is their pain point? And then the moment you can position yourself to build trust and authenticity around their pain point, that's the position is like what you do, how you do it and why you're different. Kara 00:13:29 And then if you can say that in a way that's compelling and interesting and attractive, it's, it's a it's a home run, because then all of the visuals back that up. And so then that's why the logo is, is like a piece of it. It's all the messaging and all the little graphics and all the things that really instill and insinuate what it is that makes you different is how that brand look and feel. And consistency starts to build. Because if you just start creating pretty things, you're going to, again, blend in, because there's a lot of pretty things out there. But what you need to do is, is match that message with how it's going to feel. And then the visuals come into play. And I mean, I'm an award winning designer. So for years I thought design was everything. And then as I started to own my own businesses and help thousands of businesses, I realized the positioning and the strategy behind how you're going out and getting the business is the success component. Kara 00:14:21 And then the visuals, I mean, it's it's really amazing once you have that positioning, right, how far the visuals take off and how easy it is, it's like there's no overthinking. You're just doing because you have a North Star that you're following, and then that North Star is solving the pain point and the problem of who you're trying to attract in. Shannon 00:14:41 Yes, I really do believe I mean, I with all, every fiber of my being, I believe one of the biggest struggles for retreat leaders is this it's their marketing message. It's there. It's their brand. It's the look and feel of what they're trying to communicate. And. And I feel like they struggle the most with this. And this is where they get the most stuck. And they just put something together and then wonder why it's not working. And so please hear me when I say this for my listeners. Like, this is where you are stuck. I, I promise this is probably where you're stuck and you're thinking you're not getting sales because of your price, or you're thinking you're not getting sales because of the location or whatever. Shannon 00:15:21 And it's probably 99.9% of the time. It's the branding, and the messaging is falling flat. It's not reaching who it's supposed to reach. It's not consistent. It's not vibrant. It's not the energy you're trying to create. You're not attracting the people you want to attract because it's just not hitting the mark. So I'm so glad you're talking about it. Kara 00:15:40 Yeah, 100%. And again, you can go to Squarespace and build a website over a weekend. And and it could be very successful if you have the positioning and an authentic voice and really great visuals. It's not the methodology of how you do it. There's a lot of ways such as Canva, such as AI, to get there, but you have to start with that base of of being different. Like if you look like everyone else, there's nothing to sink your teeth into that makes you stand out. And especially when you start to advertise. Because if you start putting money into that and then you start soliciting people to land, that ad could be the best looking ad ever. Kara 00:16:20 And it could say, but if they land on your website and then it doesn't feel like that, or you're not answering those questions, they're going to bounce and your bounce rate will be so high because they're going to land on something that doesn't feel safe, authentic, or, you know, matching their pain points. And so that that's why the the visuals kind of come in second or sometimes there. Shannon 00:16:40 I really do think that you're exactly right. And do you have to hire a professional? Maybe not. But here's where I think the struggle is, is they they don't have the skill set if I'm being honest. They just don't like I have to. I have to partner with someone I don't. Just my skill set is what I deliver at the retreat and what I teach people to do. But when it comes to exact marketing branding strategy, I have to bring in someone else for my own stuff. I can see other people's better than my own stuff, right? It's that's what happens sometimes. and so working with a, an organization or a partner or somebody who knows how to do that, I think is really, really valuable, especially if, as a retreat leader, you're sitting here going, why am I not getting the sales? What is happening? And if you're truly consistently showing up but you're not getting the the traction you think it is almost most likely to do with your branding and your messaging. Shannon 00:17:33 It's just falling flat. Kara 00:17:35 100% I agree. And we help people. And one of the things that makes us uniquely different is we will work with what's working and help you with the roadblocks that aren't or the gaps. So it's not like you have to come to us and we have to do it all or we won't work with you. We actually look at what's working and what brand equity you have, and in some cases, there's a lot that's working and we can kind of just come in and we don't Band-Aid. We actually solve it and we look at the problems and then we look out also not where are you now? Where are you going? So everything we're building and creating is actually giving you legs to get to where your ultimate vision is so that you don't have to redo this like the goal of branding. And most of our clients are in ten plus years. Not only are they still coming back to help them grow, but they're not coming back to rebrand. And that is because the level of who they are and what they do is so clear and it's timeless. Kara 00:18:30 It doesn't feel trendy or attached to something that's popular today. It actually feels, you know, something that could have been five years ago, 20 years from now. It just feels safe and seen. And that is another key to this whole thing, is to stay far away from very heavy trends, because it will make you go through this process again and again. Shannon 00:18:52 Yes, yes. Gosh, I so agree with that. Well, Miss Kara, if somebody wanted to work with you, do you have something special for them? I think you mentioned. Kara 00:19:01 I did earlier. You're offering 20% to anybody that finds us through this podcast. We have lots of packages everywhere, from positioning to visuals to positioning, visuals and a website. We can do them in an intensive process as quick as a week or two, or we can spread it out and do a larger scale project that can take a couple of months. But we understand that these types of projects are kind of hot and they're ready to go. So we have figured out ways for us to build packages specific to retreats and wellness groups. Kara 00:19:33 That can happen as fast as you guys need us to. And we do that hands on one on one. And we have a really specific staff that helps and handles these types of clients. And I am the creative director, founder leader of made and you will work with me individually, and then my staff helps execute all the way to the end. And I am with the project from the beginning to the end. So that's another thing that differentiates us. And we are offering 20% off of any package. If you find us through this podcast. Shannon 00:20:03 Awesome! Well, her website is made outside, but it will also be in the show notes, so I highly, highly recommend that you take her up on this offer because more than likely, if you are not hitting where you are wanting to hit, it has something to do with your branding, marketing strategy and your messaging and where it's falling flat. So Kara, thank you so much for being a guest on the show. Kara 00:20:27 Absolutely, Shannon, thank you for having me. Kara 00:20:29 And I look forward to helping all of your guests.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-twelfth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by the Senior Medical Operations Officer Observer-Coach-Trainer for the Task Force Sustainment (BSB / CSSB), CPT Victor Velez on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guests are subject matter experts in each of their warfighting fields, MAJ Jon Austin, SFC Scott Gallagher, 1LT Andy Cornelison, and LTC Max Ferguson. MAJ Austin is an armor officer from the Close Combat Lethality Task Force at the Maneuver Center of Excellence. SFC Gallagher is the former senior medic for 2-14 IN BN and is currently the Senior Enlisted Medical Advisor OCT for TF Sustainment (BSB / CSSB). 1LT Cornelson is a former Army Special Forces medic and is now the Physician's Assistant for 2-14 Infantry BN, “Golden Dragons” of 2nd IBCT, 10th Mountain Division. LTC Max Ferguson is the former BN Commander for 2-14 IN BN and is now the G-3 Operations Officer for 10th Mountain DIV as well as serving as the J-3 for the JTF Southern Border. The 2nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division, known by its Hollywood call-sign “Commando Brigade”, is a light infantry unit headquartered at Fort Drum, New York. Carrying the proud motto “Courage and Honor,” the brigade traces its lineage to the 10th Mountain Division's storied World War II legacy in the mountains of Italy, where it earned distinction for its rugged combat effectiveness in extreme terrain. Reactivated in the post-Vietnam era, 2nd IBCT has since deployed multiple times in support of operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, exemplifying rapid deployment capability, adaptability, and lethality. Today, the Commando Brigade remains a cornerstone of the Army's light infantry force, specializing in mountain and cold-weather operations while preparing for large scale combat operations across multiple domains. The “golden hour” concept from the Global War on Terror era is being expanded in LSCO to account for prolonged casualty care under contested evacuation timelines. Whole blood and walking blood banks extend treatment coverage, creating larger windows for evacuation to the next level of care. While long practiced within Army Special Operations Forces (ARSOF), this marks the first employment of the concept by a conventional unit in recent history. In this episode of The Crucible podcast, the panel continues its in-depth discussion on prolonged casualty care (PCC) in large-scale combat operations (LSCO), building on themes introduced in part one. A key focus is on how modern units—especially those operating in austere, isolated, or logistically constrained environments—must adapt to provide lifesaving care when evacuation within the “Golden Hour” is not possible. From operations in Syria and the U.S. southern border to anticipated LSCO scenarios, the conversation highlights the reality that prolonged field care (PFC) is not a future problem—it's a current operational requirement. We unpack the complexity of holding casualties for hours (or days), examining scenarios where role 1 and 2 facilities become primary treatment centers in the absence of immediate access to surgical capabilities. The conversation also addresses the practical responsibilities of leaders—both medical and maneuver—in creating the conditions for success. Topics include the importance of tourniquet conversion training, integrating whole-blood programs, designing low-signature CASEVAC platforms, and standardizing tactical combat casualty care (TC3) across formations. Leaders emphasize the need to build experiential knowledge in junior medics through trauma center exposure, paramedic fellowships, and realistic simulation labs. The gap in trauma experience across the force—especially among junior NCOs and medics—is framed as a critical training challenge, compounded by outdated equipment and inconsistent SOPs. The episode concludes with a call to prioritize medics' professional development, create scalable medical rehearsals nested within maneuver plans, and cultivate confidence in combat casualty care as a decisive enabler in LSCO.

If you've ever wondered how the heck to find a legit golf instructor (and not just some YouTube-taught swing whisperer on the driving range), this is the episode for you.Too many golfers waste years (and thousands of dollars) working with instructors who don't actually change their swing — they just slap a Band-Aid on the shanks and hope for the best. In this episode, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb break down how to find a real swing coach who understands both the art and the science of instruction — including what to look for, what to avoid, and the types of “teachers” that do more harm than good.We unpack the difference between resort triage lessons and true swing transformation, the value of coaches who adapt with tech and data (3D motion, force plates, etc.), and how to spot the red flags — like "method teachers" who teach everyone the same cookie-cutter swing, or social media coaches who have never taught in the real world.You'll walk away with a filter system that makes your search way easier — and ensures you're not jumping teacher to teacher, wasting time and regressing. Because once you find your coach, you commit.✅ Learn what separates top-tier instructors from the fakes ✅ Why 3D motion, force plates, and experience matter ✅ How swing patterns, mobility, and individuality affect coaching ✅ When to commit and stop jumping from teacher to teacher ✅ How to use YouTube strategically to vet coaches in advanceWant to take your swing to the next level? It starts with finding the right guide.

Podcast Host CJ Miller shares how both the body and the planet carry within them an incredible, built-in self-healing mechanism. Drawing from his own journey with back pain and insights from a neurosurgeon, CJ explores how Creative Intelligence restores balance when we learn to step aside and remove obstacles—whether those obstacles are false beliefs, unhealthy habits, or the ego's need for control. With simple examples, like how a Band-Aid doesn't heal but only protects, CJ reminds us that healing is already wired into our design. He also references Louise L. Hay's classic book Heal Your Body, which connects physical symptoms with limiting belief systems, showing how shifts in consciousness can support physical healing.Extending this wisdom to the Earth itself, CJ reflects on how our planet has been fine-tuned for nearly four billion years with self-balancing systems. From flies as unexpected pollinators to the dangers of disrupting nature's delicate harmony, he reveals how Creative Intelligence continually works to restore balance. And this is relevant to an artist: what belief or behavior is limiting you from expressing your Creative Intelligence fully? CJ encourages listeners to trust Creative Intelligence, honor the balance of life, and get out of the way so that both body and planet can do what they do best—heal themselves.Want to learn more about CJ Miller? Check out his Spiritual Artist Retreats, 1:1 Personal Coaching, and Speaking Engagements at www.spiritualartisttoday.com. His retreats are designed to help you reconnect with your Creative Intelligence and express your true artistic voice. You can also find his upcoming schedule there, and his book, The Spiritual Artist, is available on Amazon.
