This episode is brought to you by Your Clockwise Week—a personalized weekly structure built around your actual life, not an ideal one. If your week feels full but not fitting, you can learn more at mikevardy.com/yourclockwiseweek.Most of us have been told that success is about mindset — stay positive, visualize the outcome, trust the process. But what if that advice is quietly working against you? What if the more honest — and more useful — move is to look directly at what could go wrong, name it clearly, and then do something about it?That's the argument Kyle Austin Young makes in his book Success is a Numbers Game. Kyle isn't asking you to become a pessimist. He's asking you to stop pretending uncertainty doesn't exist — and start using it as a lever. This episode gets into probability, decision-making, and what it actually means to give yourself better odds.Six Discussion PointsThe reason generic optimism fails: unnamed, unfocused anxiety doesn't disappear when you think positive — it just goes undergroundWhy "success is a numbers game" isn't about obsessing over data, but about acknowledging that ignoring uncertainty is its own kind of riskThe averaging trap: multiplying the odds of what has to go right reveals a predicted failure even when each individual step feels doableHow the Miracle on Ice reframes as probability rather than miracle — and what the US hockey program's subsequent growth tells us about the compounding effect of one winThe success diagram as a practical tool: mapping what has to go right, identifying the potential bad outcomes beneath each step, and using creativity to reduce those risksWhy AI is most useful in this framework as a brainstorming partner — helping you surface obstacles and workarounds you might not think to name on your ownThree Connection PointsSuccess is a Numbers Game by Kyle Austin YoungConnect with Kyle on LinkedInStop Managing Your Time. Start Crafting Your Time Instead. A complementary piece designed to help you structure your time so the pauses Kyle recommends actually have a place to landWhat Kyle is really describing is the difference between hoping things go well and actively improving the odds that they will. That's a distinction that matters whether you're chasing a career goal, building a creative practice, or simply trying to follow through on what you said you'd do. The success diagram isn't a complicated tool — it's a focused one. And focus, as Kyle puts it, is what lets you live your life and still recognize the right moment when it arrives. If this conversation shifted something for you, I'd encourage you to sit with it — and maybe grab the book. If this episode resonated, I'm exploring ideas like these more deeply in my upcoming book, Productiveness. You can follow along as it takes shape at mikevardy.com/productiveness.

hVIVO PLC (AIM:HVO) CEO Yamin 'Mo' Khan joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the company's full-year 2025 results, which showed financial resilience despite a tough macro environment. Revenue came in at just under £47 million, in line with expectations, while EBITDA of just over £1 million beat earlier guidance of a small loss, driven by strong cost discipline, cancellation fees, and a solid Q4. The company closed the year with over £14 million in cash. Strategically, hVIVO made meaningful progress on diversification. Acquisitions, including clinical trial units in Germany and UK-based CryoStore, have broadened its capabilities, and the business is now consolidating under a single brand across four integrated service lines: human challenge trials, clinical trials, laboratory services, and consulting. Khan described the platform as giving access to "many more clients." Although the human challenge trial segment faced headwinds from vaccine market volatility in 2025, proposal activity has picked up sharply in early 2026. The company is guiding for high single-digit revenue growth this year, underpinned by a growing pipeline and a new partnership with Traws Pharma.

Have you ever had a great idea but found yourself delaying action on it? You're not alone. Many people experience that fleeting excitement before the momentum fades away, often within just three days. This phenomenon is embraced by what we call the 72-Hour Rule. It suggests that if you don't take action on a new idea within a 72-hour window, the likelihood of actually following through diminishes significantly.You see, the psychological underpinnings of this rule are quite fascinating. Research shows that the neural pathways that enable us to act on new behaviors start to develop immediately when an idea first strikes. However, without prompt action, those pathways can start to wither. Imagine that initial spark of enthusiasm fading away after a few days, leaving you wondering what could have been. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/conspiracy-theories-exploring-the-unseen--5194379/support.

Infantile spasms are one of the most frightening neurological emergencies a parent can face — and most families are told that 80 to 90% of children will go on to have lifelong developmental delays and continued seizure disorders. In this deep dive, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down what infantile spasms actually are, what's driving them at the root level, and what the families who beat the odds are doing differently. He walks through the perfect storm of birth trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and subluxation that underlies nearly every case he has seen — and explains why the warning signs are almost always there long before the spasms begin. Drawing from his own son Oliver's story and the remarkable case of twins Jordan and Teo, Dr. Tony makes clear that emergency medical care is non-negotiable — and makes an equally strong case for why Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care needs to be part of the plan from day one to address the root cause and give every kiddo the best possible shot at a full, healthy, seizure-free life.-----Links & ResourcesUnderstanding Infantile Spasms: A Comprehensive Guide for ParentsPWC Intensive Program for Advanced Neurological Cases: https://premierwellnesschiro.com/the-perfect-storm/-----Key Topics & Timestamps4:00  Medical First: Why Emergency Care and an Epileptologist Are Non-Negotiable8:00 What Are Infantile Spasms?

From a childhood filled with struggle to leading young women on the court, Coach Ty Terry's journey is nothing short of powerful. In this episode of Swim Lessons the Podcast, Ty opens up about the pain he faced growing up, how he almost lost himself, and the way basketball became his lifeline when everything around him felt like it was sinking. Now the head girls basketball coach at St. Mary's High School, Ty shares how the game didn't just save his life, it gave him a purpose and a platform to pour back into the next generation. We talk about faith, identity, mentorship, and what it really takes to rise above where you started. If you've ever felt lost, overlooked, or stuck in your circumstances, this conversation is for you.

On this episode of Beyond the Game, Olaoluwa and the team celebrate Nigerian athletes making waves across the global sports scene, spotlighting excellence, resilience, and the impact of homegrown talent abroad. The conversation also takes a fascinating turn into basketball history, exploring players considered “short” by elite standards and how they defied expectations to compete at the highest level.Insightful, inspiring, and fun, this episode looks past scores and stats to tell stories of grit, representation, and redefining what it means to belong at the top.

What does it take to beat the odds in an AI-driven world? On this episode of DisrupTV, Kyle Young (Success Is a Numbers Game) and Jon Reed (diginomica) join Vala Afshar and Ray Wang to explore probability hacking, enterprise AI leadership, and why kindness still matters. From de-risking big goals to navigating the paradox of AI in the enterprise, this conversation offers practical insights for leaders facing uncertainty—and opportunity.

Chelle Harris joins us to share her powerful testimony of beating all odds.After enduring 14 years of abuse—mental, physical, and sexual—and surviving trauma that began at just five years old, Chelle refused to let her past define her future. Today, she stands as a living testament to resilience and restoration: a single mother, homeowner, and successful business owner. Her story is one of courage, perseverance, and triumph.

Kyle Austin Young discovered through two devastating layoffs that success is not determined by desire alone, but by understanding probability and systematically managing risk. Most people fatally underestimate their odds by averaging probabilities rather than multiplying them—a mathematical error explaining why nine out of ten businesses fail. Kyle's consulting methodology asks not just What am I hired to do? but What can I do to make this succeed? By identifying potential failures and creatively eliminating them before they occur, he developed probability hacking, a framework that transforms how people approach obstacles and achievement. Kyle's philosophy centers on strategic risk anticipation rather than blind positivity. Real-world examples—from a nonprofit's hidden email glitch causing donation decline, to Bic's unwanted women's pens, to Edison's thousands of failed experiments—prove systematic de-risking works better than motivation alone. He advocates thinking negative as rigorous analysis of what could go wrong, followed by creative prevention. Repeated attempts, not talent, separate successful people from failures, and paused goals often generate unexpected successes, like YouTube evolving from a failed dating site. His personal path of pursuing smaller milestones before his larger goal demonstrates how systematic sequencing builds assets that make success inevitable. Kyle Austin Young's mission is empowering people to pursue meaningful goals through probability-based thinking rather than affirmations alone. Success comes through better odds management, not greater talent. To learn his complete framework, visit his website and grab his book Success Is a Numbers Game: Achieve Bigger Goals by Changing the Odds on Amazon. Start today by identifying one risk for every goal and brainstorming one creative solution. Any day can be your fresh start when you commit to changing your odds.

Two powerful true stories — one of survival, one of defiance.In Part One, a woman shares how she beat breast cancer naturally and stayed cancer-free using an apricot-seed-based maintenance treatment — defying the odds and the system that told her it couldn't be done.Facebook Group: Sex After Breast Cancerhttps://www.owwc.orgIn Part Two, a landowner reveals how he stood up to government overreach when eminent domain came for his property — and won.Both stories expose what happens when ordinary people refuse to surrender their health, homes, and freedom.

For years, the story of American healthcare has read like an obituary for small, independent medical practices. Faced with shrinking reimbursements, staffing shortages, and rising administrative burden, many physicians traded autonomy for stability, selling to health systems or private equity. Yet beneath the consolidation headlines, a quiet rebellion is taking shape. Across the country, small specialty and multi-site practices are not only surviving but posting strong margins. They're lean, tech-forward, and operationally disciplined, proving that small can be powerful when run like a high-performing business.

In this episide we have special guest David Lamb. We all have challenges in life and his story will inspire a lot of people out there. After a horrific motorcycle accident, and the loss of his right arm, he got on the road to recovery and wanted to get back into hunting. But he went the extra mile of wanting to learn how to bowhunt. In less than 3 short years he managed to harvest his first buck with a bow, get heavily involved in shooting leagues, and even compete at the Lancaster Classic. Its an inspiring story of the incredible determination, ingenuity that one man committed himself to so that he could enjoy the sport we all love

On this week's program, how a hidden hole in a cowboy's heart nearly ended his rodeo career and sparked his mission to help others. Then, a physician hero at the forefront of treating life-threatening brain aneurysms.

Odds don't define you—heart does. Show Notes: In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor draws lessons from the fight between Terence Crawford and Canelo Álvarez. On paper, Crawford had no chance—he was smaller, moving up two weight classes, and fighting in front of 70,000 fans cheering against him. But the fight wasn't decided on paper—it was decided in the ring. Baylor challenges listeners to stop waiting for the perfect timing or the perfect conditions and to start taking their own shots at legacy. Because building a lasting legacy requires more than talent—it requires courage, resilience, and the willingness to step into the arena when the odds say you shouldn't. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why odds don't matter if you're willing to fight anyway How playing it safe robs you of legacy-defining opportunities The importance of recognizing there's more than one way to win Why longevity and consistency often beat flashy “knockouts” How to harness the one advantage no one else can measure—your heart Featured Quote: "The paper can't measure heart—and that's an advantage you already have."

Host Wynn Smiley welcomes Nick Ackerman, a Simpson College alum, national wrestling champion, and the only Division III athlete to ever receive the Hodge Trophy, wrestling's equivalent to the Heisman. At 18 months old, Nick lost both legs to meningitis, but rather than letting that define him, he was raised by “unsympathetic” parents who set high expectations and helped him develop a resilient spirit.Nick and Wynn discuss how his family's competitive nature and his small-town upbringing shaped his drive and openness to challenges. Nick credits his parents with treating him just like any other kid, pushing him to excel, and his community for their support and inclusion.Despite struggling early in wrestling, Nick found his stride in high school and went on to achieve national success in college, thanks to relentless hard work and the support of close mentors and teammates. He shares insights into how he overcame setbacks and built self-belief, famously motivating himself to become a national champion.After winning the national championship, Nick's story gained national attention, leading him to connect with others who faced limb loss. This inspired his career in prosthetics, where he now helps others adapt both physically and mentally. He reflects on the similarities and differences in the rehab journeys of his patients and the importance of offering authentic, sometimes tough, support over empty pity.Nick also touches on the transformative impact of diverse backgrounds in group settings, including his fraternity experience with ATO, and the importance of working hard, believing in yourself, and surrounding yourself with good people.The episode closes with a heartfelt tribute to fellow ATO brother Jay Byers and a reminder of the lasting bonds and support found in the fraternity community.This conversation is a powerful blend of resilience, humility, and insight—all rooted in Nick's lived experience and lifelong commitment to helping others.

What is to come for a child who is told he is garbage? Worthless? Beaten to the ground? I have often said that children who have the love, kindness and acceptance of an adult—or several adults—can be the difference. As you might remember me saying, Search Institute found that many young people don't feel that they have at least 3 key adults to turn to in a time of need and challenge. Our next guest had a very hard start to his life—abused by his father and watching his mother and siblings meet that same fate. He survived the streets of Kampala Uganda and, due to the potential that someone saw in him- wound up going to school and altering his life for the better in every possible way. My next guest will help us to understand how to talk to kids about acceptance and true self-worth. He has a remarkable story. The post How to Talk to Kids about Beating the Odds, Acceptance & True Self Worth with Peter Mutabazi – Rerelease appeared first on Dr Robyn Silverman.

Psychiatrist, coach working with immigrant women, and the Executive Director at Minnesota Department of Human Services, Dr. Soniya Hirachan, talks about her Nepalese mother Asha (meaning “hope” in Nepalese) who grew up in a remote village in the mountains of the Himalayas. Every summer, mama Asha walked for a whole week to reach the nearest city where she helped her father sell the produce from their farm. Later in life, Asha built a profitable restaurant business and sent her children to the best schools in Nepal, India and the US. Asha teaches us about beating the odds, creating new opportunities for the next generations, resilience, hope, humbleness, independence, and accepting that it's ok to be different.  To contact Ana, to be a guest, or suggest a guest, please send your mail to: info@thankyoumama.net To learn more about "Thank You, mama" creative writing workshop, visit here.

Limited-time discount available – don't miss out! David Brown, known as one of the smallest Navy SEALs in history, shares his extraordinary journey from BUD/S training to high-stakes criminal investigations with NCIS and the EPA. Standing at just 5'3" and 110 pounds, Brown's memoir is a testament to persistence and determination in overcoming physical limitations. He shares his experiences from major fraud and environmental crime cases, including a landmark $17 million fine against Burlington Northern Railroad. Brown's post-retirement struggle to find fulfillment led him to write "And Goliath," a book on the challenges of transitioning from high-intensity careers and redefining personal success.    David Brown defied expectations to become a U.S. Navy SEAL. His journey, marked by perseverance and determination, took him from BUD/S training to the SEAL Teams, then to NCIS, and finally to the top echelons of Federal law enforcement. In his memoir "And Goliath," Brown shares his raw, honest story of overcoming obstacles in military life and beyond. His inspirational tale demonstrates how facing life's challenges head-on can lead to extraordinary achievements.   Mental and Physical Resilience: The SEAL training process pushes individuals beyond their perceived limits, teaching the importance of perseverance, grit, and mental toughness. The self is put last, with an ethos that success comes from placing the team's mission above individual achievements, a mindset critical for high-stakes environments. Leading with Empathy, and Flexibility: Effective leaders lead by example, demonstrating the qualities they expect from their teams, and inspiring trust and commitment through their own actions. Understand your team members' strengths, weaknesses, and needs, to foster a supportive environment where everyone thrives. Trust is the Foundation of Leadership: Effective teams are built on trust, where members rely on each other's abilities and integrity to accomplish complex missions. A successful team requires everyone to know their roles and responsibilities, fostering cohesion and minimizing conflicts. Team members must hold each other accountable while also providing support during difficult moments, creating an environment where everyone works towards the same goal. Ethics and Integrity: Integrity is non-negotiable in both military and civilian roles, a strict adherence to ethics and integrity is vital. David emphasizes that compromising on these values undermines not only personal credibility but the entire organization's effectiveness. Ethical lapses, no matter how small, can have long-term consequences, so it's crucial to always act in alignment with the highest ethical standards.   Zbiotics: Go to zbiotics.com/DIVINE to get 15% off your first order when you use DIVINE at checkout.
