Candi Staton has been a gospel prodigy, a Southern soul powerhouse and a disco icon. Now, at 85, she's back in the spotlight with her Grammy-nominated album Back to My Roots, which marks her return to the gospel music where it all began. From segregated Alabama churches to '90s dance floors, her career includes timeless hits like Young Hearts Run Free and You Got the Love. But it's also a journey marked by hardship, heartbreak and long stretches of being overlooked. Candi joins guest host Garvia Bailey to talk about finally getting her flowers — and what it means to keep singing after seven decades in music.

Send a textWhat if calm isn't something you find after life settles… but something you practice while everything still feels loud, uncertain, and full? In this episode, I invite you into a deeply real reflection on stress, emotional weight, and the quiet moments of beauty that often go unnoticed in our busiest seasons. From stormy mornings by the water to the science of nervous system regulation and the Stoic wisdom of inner steadiness, this conversation gently challenges the idea that life must be peaceful before we allow ourselves to feel peace. If you've been carrying a lot lately — mentally, emotionally, or physically — this episode is a soft place to land, a reminder that even in the middle of chaos, there are small glimmers of calm waiting to be noticed.Quote of the week:“You have power over your mind — not outside events.

Send us a textThere are moments in life when you realize — very clearly — who and what is holding you up. This week, I found myself thinking deeply about the people who show up quietly, consistently, and without needing anything in return. And it made me reflect on how much of what weighs us down isn't physical at all — it's emotional, and relational.This episode is an invitation to look at relationships differently. Not through the lens of fixing, forcing, or holding on tighter — but through honesty, acceptance, and relief. If you've ever felt exhausted by relationships, confused by love, or curious about what truly helps us feel lighter — this one is for you.References1.    Waldinger, R. J., & Schulz, M. S. (2010).

In this enlightening episode of the podcast, host Precious Bullard shares her personal journey of transformation and the pivotal moments that have led to a profound shift in her mindset. As we delve into the themes of self-discovery and manifestation, listeners are invited to explore how changing one's perspective can lead to extraordinary results in life.

BONUS: In this episode, Dr. Tega challenges the assumption that career changers must wait until they're miserable to make a move. She introduces a framework of three distinct pivot types. Drawing from her own experience making three career transitions, Dr. Tega explains how to identify which pivot applies to your situation and what happens when you ignore the signs. The episode reframes career transitions as proactive strategic moves rather than desperate escapes, encouraging listeners to recognize fulfillment gaps before reaching crisis points.

We're talking with executive coach, entrepreneur, and all-around epic human Travis Ensley about how to design a life you actually want to be living.  And guess what? It all starts with 4 deceptively simple - but powerful - questions that Travis has been using with himself, his family, and now the high-level leaders he coaches. We dig into: What these 4 questions are Why they actually work (no fluff here) And how YOU can use them to make meaningful changes… whether you're running a team, building a business, or just ready to live with more focus and intention. Travis also opens up about the journey behind his new book, Field of Focus: A Field Guide for Navigating Time, Teams & Technology - a practical, BS-free guide for folks who want to make the most of their time without losing their minds in the process. Oh - and you'll hear about some of the 700+ cups of coffee Travis and I have had. (Seriously!) This one's packed with stories, laughs, and real-life wisdom you can use immediately.

Send us a textThis week we're heading into week three of the challenge, and I want to talk about something subtle that can quietly make everything feel harder—your energy, your focus, your patience, even your progress. I've been thinking a lot about how often we push through discomfort without ever stopping to ask why it's there. And how, as women who manage full lives and full calendars, we're incredibly skilled at overriding ourselves instead of listening.In today's shorty episode, I invite you to slow down just enough to notice what your body has been trying to tell you all along. This is about strength without force, awareness without judgment, and learning how to trust yourself again in a world that constantly asks you not to. If you've ever felt like something was “off” but couldn't quite put your finger on it, this conversation is for you.Quote of the Week:“The body is your instrument.

Send us a textWhat if the reason things feel harder than they should isn't because you're undisciplined, unmotivated, or doing it wrong—but because the system you're using was never designed for the life you're actually living? In this episode, I invite you to pause the self-judgment and take a gentler, more curious look at what's really driving your follow-through (or lack of it). If you've ever felt like you're carrying a lot, managing everything, and still wondering why your goals feel just out of reach, this conversation is for you.If you're in our 30-day challenge—or honestly, if you're just craving a way forward that feels more compassionate and more effective—this episode offers a perspective shift that might change how you see everything you're working toward.Quote of the Week“The greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being can alter his life by altering his attitudes of mind.”— William JamesCitationsBeck, A.

Who can benefit from life coaching? If you ask Audrey or David, our answer is “Everyone!” When we first learned about life coaching many years ago, with corporate leaders having executive coaches. Over time, however, life coaching has expanded to offer its benefits to a much broader audience.We felt that, as soon-to-be or current international educators, you would benefit from a show about how valuable life coaching can be for you. Thankfully, here at Educators Going Global, we have a resident life coach in Audrey Forgeron.Audrey is a 34-year veteran of living and teaching overseas who has now rebranded herself as a life coach specializing in Mental Fitness for International Educators. She loves connecting with people and spreading the love and joy of international education to anyone who will listen! She is also a co-host of this podcast. Our guiding questions for this show were, “What is life coaching?” “What is Audrey's approach?” “What services does she offer?” And “How is all of this connected with international education?”Resources mentioned in the episode:Forge Your Best Life - Audrey's life coaching siteAudrey's Contact Information: LinkedIn This episode was recorded on April 11th, 2025.Categories: Wellness | Life CoachingSupport the show Remember to access our Educators Going Global website for more information and consider joining our Patreon community at patreon/educatorsgoingglobal!Email us with comments or suggestions at educatorsgoingglobal@gmail.com Follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram or YouTube.Listen on your favorite podcast app: connect from our share page.Music: YouTube.

The way you've been setting personal goals is the very thing holding you back from living your biggest life. It's time to ditch the SMART framework and finally create goals that align with the woman you're becoming.Episode Summary:In this week's fiery episode, Laurie dismantles one of the most overused—and misused—tools in personal development: the SMART goal framework. You've been told to make your goals specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. But when it comes to midlife transformation and building your actual BEST LIFE? That framework might be doing more harm than good.Laurie explains why applying a corporate goal-setting system to your deeply personal hopes, dreams, and desires keeps you stuck in external validation and false deadlines. She dives into why midlife is the exact moment to let go of achievable, "relevant," and time-bound goals—and finally start designing your own definition of success.You'll learn:Why throwaway goals feel good—but don't change your lifeHow focusing on what's “achievable” shrinks your visionWhy setting personal goals based on relevance is total BSThe sneaky toxicity of arbitrary deadlinesHow to shift from performance-driven goals to purpose-driven dreamsShe also introduces the BEST LIFE™ framework—a game-changing, trademarked system she uses with all her coaching clients to move from burnout to breakthrough.If 2026 is the year you finally start living for you, this episode is a must-listen.Resources Mentioned:Click here to learn more about 1:1 or group coachingFollow Laurie on Instagram: @schoolofmidlifeTake the Conversation Deeper:Laurie wants to hear from YOU.

In this first episode of 2026, Dr. Brianna Armstrong sits down with Dr. Natalie Marks for a deeply honest conversation about identity, alignment, and intentional living. While Dr. Marks is widely known for her extraordinary career — spanning clinical practice, hospital ownership, national media, Fear Free leadership, and her current role as CEO of the Veterinary Angel Network — this episode goes beyond accomplishments and into the inner work behind them. Together, Brianna and Natalie explore what it means to build a life that actually feels good, how to recognize when you've outgrown old versions of yourself, and why vulnerability, boundaries, and asking for help are essential leadership skills. This episode is an invitation to reflect, let go of what no longer serves you, and choose the “intentional yes” — in your career, relationships, and life. If you're feeling successful on paper but misaligned inside, this conversation is for you.

Menopause is a significant time of transition in a woman's life Dr. Mindy Pelz is on to share her research and perspective that this time of our lives is actually an initiation into a time of leadership and opportunity for a woman to reinvent herself. A time when a woman can really figure out what she wants in her life. An invitation to ask yourself, "What parts of my life don't fit anymore?"   She explores the purpose of menopause and how the symptoms you feel are leaving you clues that can benefit you if you look deeper into why they are occurring. We discuss why we need to stop believing that we need to fear and fight aging and actually look forward to this time of our lives.

Dr. Rudy Eberwein shares his personal journey from eating heavily processed foods in the US to becoming a nutrition-focused doctor, highlighting how American foods are engineered to activate reward centers in the brain. He explained that his medical training barely covered nutrition, despite it being his undergraduate major, leading him to establish a weight loss clinic in 2005 to focus on disease prevention rather than just treatment.Key Takeaways from this discussion include:GLP-1 medications are considered a major medical breakthrough for weight management, comparable to penicillinVisceral adipose tissue (VAT) is an active endocrine organ that produces inflammatory cytokines, increasing disease riskThe combination of GLP-1 medications and testosterone therapy can be highly effective for weight management and muscle preservationMaintaining muscle mass while losing fat is crucial for healthy aging and metabolic health93% of Americans have at least one component of Cardiokidney Metabolic Disease (CKM)Endocrine-disrupting chemicals in food and plastics negatively impact hormone balance and metabolismSelf-love and positive mindset are essential components of any health transformation journeyDr. Rudy shared his comprehensive approach to wellness using the BEST LIFE acronym.B: Baseline (know your starting point)E: Evaluate (get comprehensive testing)S: Sit with a specialist (find the right medical team)T: Take action (implement changes)L: Lean into your tribe (find community support)I: Investigate again (retest to track progress)F: Fine-tune the program (make adjustments)E: Evolve into the new person (embrace your transformation)Dr. Rudy Eberwein is an internal medicine physician with an impressive academic and professional journey. Despite excelling in an acute care hospital setting, Dr. Rudy's passion for preventive medicine led him to open a weight loss clinic with his wife called A New You Wellness, where he has helped thousands of patients lose weight and improve their health.Learn more at DrRudyBestLife.com and check out his podcast TheBestLifeCode.com Visit ConfidenceThroughHealth.com to find discounts to some of our favorite products.Follow me via All In Health and Wellness on Facebook or Instagram.Find my books on Amazon: No More Sugar Coating: Finding Your Happiness in a Crowded World and Confidence Through Health: Live the Healthy Lifestyle God DesignedProduction credit: Social Media Cowboys

There comes a moment when you can't keep giving more of yourself away. If you've spent years proving, delivering, and holding everything together, it makes sense that slowing down feels risky. You may look capable on the outside, but inside there's a quieter part of you longing for rest, relief, and a way back to your own truth. This episode is a compassionate invitation to stop abandoning yourself in the name of being everything for everyone else. When you override your needs, resentment and depletion build silently. But each time you choose yourself — even in one small moment — something powerful shifts. Boundaries help you reclaim your energy, your voice, and your self-worth. Desire reconnects you to what feels alive. And enoughness becomes something you claim, not something you earn. You deserve to root into what nourishes you, honor what you want, and stop measuring your value by what you produce. One breath, one pause, and one boundary at a time. What we explore: The cost of saying yes when you mean no How self-abandonment accumulates over time Why slowing down feels threatening for high achievers The truth about resentment and what it reveals Why desire is not indulgent — it's directional How boundaries bring you back to yourself Simple daily practices to honor your needs The moment you choose enoughness Reclaiming energy from obligation and overgiving If your spark has felt dimmed by overachieving or overgiving, my free five-day experience Reignite Your Spark will help you reconnect with your energy and your truth.

Send us a textThis week on Project Weight Loss, I'm talking about something so many of us quietly struggle with — that strange feeling of “I'm doing everything… and yet, I still feel stuck.”Whether it's with food, with our routines, or with parts of life that feel a little stagnant, this feeling shows up for all of us. And today, I'm sharing why it happens, what it really means, and how giving ourselves permission to be human can actually be the doorway to freedom.In this episode, we explore the quiet internal patterns that keep us circling the same emotions, even when our circumstances stay the same.If you've been feeling stuck, stalled, or like your inside world isn't matching the outside effort you're giving… this episode is for you, my friends.Quote of the Week:“The mind is everything.

Known for a voice that critics call "transfixing," Sachal has collaborated with everyone from Wynton Marsalis to Bobby McFerrin.Sachal discusses his latest project, Best Life Now, and the surprising journey of taking that album—originally produced with deep grooves by drummer Nate Smith—and stripping it back to its raw, acoustic essentials.

Dr. Amanda Akers, one of our awesome Best Life clinicians, has a free flowing and often funny discussion with me about the ins and outs of psychoanalytic therapy. We cover myths vs reality, why both of us take a deeper perspective than CBT, our own thoughts about the impact of childhood in adulthood, and I ask her the most common questions I get from clients about this approach, like... how long does it take? Why does childhood matter in adulthood? And why does the therapist client relationship matter so much? Also covered: the idea of a "couple's world," and how therapy cannot create one but only return you to one if it existed!
