Podcasts about Best Life

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.

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.

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. What you think, you become.” — BuddhaJoin me for this compassionate conversation — and maybe share it with someone who could use a little reminder that freedom starts within.ResourcesPurpose / GroupHotline / Contact Info988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (suicidal thoughts, emotional distress, crisis)Call or text 988 SAMHSA+2CDC+2 (Older number, still works) National Suicide Prevention Lifeline1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255) USAGov+2MentalHealth.com+2 SAMHSA's National Helpline (mental health / substance use disorders support & referral)1-800-662-HELP (4357) SAMHSA+1Crisis Text Line (if someone prefers texting instead of calling)Text HOME to 741-741 Nested Integral Coaching Constellation+1Disaster Distress Helpline (stress / trauma from disasters, emergencies)1-800-985-5990 CDC+1National Domestic Violence Hotline (support for domestic violence situations)1-800-799-SAFE (1-800-799-7233) HeadStart.gov+1National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI — information & support for mental health issues)1-800-950-NAMI (6264) CDC+1Additional Resources988Lifeline.org — chat and text support, as well as resources for crisis help.

Episode Description: In this episode of Backstage Bay Area, host Steven Roby sits down with vocalist and songwriter Sachal Vasandani. 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. We dive into his philosophy on jazz improvisation, his "brush your teeth" approach to vocal discipline, and how he navigates the confusing headspace of post-pandemic life through song.In This Episode, We Cover:·       The Ella Effect: How listening to Ella Fitzgerald taught him to find new "nooks and crannies" in songs he has sung thousands of times.·       The Acoustic Pivot: Why a logistical travel snag turned into a creative breakthrough for his Acoustic Sessions EP.·       Lyrical Tension: The story behind the title track "Best Life Now" and why living your "best life" isn't always as simple as it sounds.·       Teaching Jazz: Sachal's unique philosophy on balancing technical discipline with the freedom to break the rules.·       Live at Joe Henderson Lab: Previewing his intimate reunion with Bay Area natives Dayna Stephens and Charles Altura.Featured Music:·       "Best Life Now" (Acoustic Version)·       "Too Easy"Links & Resources:·       Tickets: Sachal Vasandani at SFJAZZ (Dec 12)·       Album: Best Life Now & Acoustic Sessions EP (Available on all streaming platforms)Connect with Backstage Bay Area:·       Website: Backstagebayarea.com·       Host: Steven Roby

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!

Hey Heal Squad! As we all ease into the holidays, today's episode is the perfect reset with our dear friend of the show, Challenge champion and author Tori Deal. She's bringing a genius fitness hack that can actually help you strengthen your mile time, and make fitness fun during this time of year. But the real magic in this convo? The honest, raw talk about embracing the slow-down season: why we need it, how to stay in it, and what pulls us out of it without realizing (hint, hint, social media!) Tori also shares a beautiful journaling prompt to help you actually integrate your feelings instead of bottling them up, and Maria drops some life-and-beauty hacks that are total gamechangers for anyone trying to move through this season with more ease. (One of them is beauty-focused… and trust us, you're gonna want it!) So get cozy, grab a mug, and settle in for a queen-level chat that's warm, real, and exactly what your nervous system ordered. You're gonna love this one!

Send us a textHey there, my friends — this week I'm coming to you with something simple… and something human.No outline.No strategy.Just us.I'm sharing a couple of stories —and reflecting on what service really means during this season. Not the big, heroic kind. The small, human, everyday kind. The kind that steadies us emotionally and reminds us who we want to be.We talk about dignity, compassion, emotional grounding, and why even tiny acts of kindness shift the nervous system in powerful ways (yes, the research backs this up). And I share what I'm personally choosing to do this week — something small, but from the heart.If you've ever wondered how service connects to our wellness, our mindset, and our Project Weight Loss path… this is the episode I hope you listen to.Quote of the Week:“Wherever you turn, you can find someone who needs you.” — Albert SchweitzerCitations:Raposa, E.

On this packed edition of the show, we're hitting every corner of the internet, sports, politics, pop culture, and the just plain bizarre. We start with Cam Skattabo, who's out here living his best life while the haters stay loud — and we break down why people get triggered when someone's thriving.Then we shift to a surreal political moment as Donald Trump and Rep. Zohran Mamdani meet at the White House. Yes, that pairing really happened, and yes, we need to talk about it.Hollywood is back in the discourse too, this time because the Wicked cast is noticeably — and worryingly — skinny on their press tour. We explore the conversation around celebrity bodies, pressure, and what's driving these reactions online.From there we dive into a big one: Can AI wipe out entry-level white-collar jobs? (Inspired by the latest 60 Minutes report.) We discuss what's hype, what's real, and what the near future actually looks like.In business news, Ford announces it will start selling cars directly on Amazon, and we unpack what that means for dealerships, car buying, and the entire auto industry.Then the vibes get… weird. Like really weird. There's a viral clip featuring twerking with the dead — yes, literally — and we process the internet so you don't have to.We wrap with a Nuclear Opinion of the Day and end with our Question of the Day to get your takes rolling.Tap into Episode 647 of the Productive Conversations Podcast—available now on all podcast platforms and YouTube.---Cam Skattabo (4:05)Trump and Zohran Mamdani to Meet at White House Friday (13:15)Wicked Stars Are Very Skinny (20:00)Can AI Take Entry Level White Collar Jobs?

Send us a textHey friends — this week, I'm talking about something close to my heart: positivity — not the fake-it-till-you-make-it kind, but the quiet confidence that goodness still exists, even when life feels heavy and out of balance. I'll share stories from my week — like seeing my daughter and her foster kittens (Solstice and Equinox) and how a walk around Silver Lake reminded me that we can stay grounded. I'll also tell you the story of The Seashells of Positivity. We'll look at the science behind positivity, including research by Sonja Lyubomirsky, Laura King, and Ed Diener (2005) showing that people who experience frequent positive emotions live healthier, more fulfilling lives. I also link to one of my favorite resources — the Calm Master Class on Happiness by Shawn Achor, which explores the science of choosing happiness intentionally. You can find it here.Quote of the Week:“Every time we choose light, we make it easier for someone else to see.” — Unknown Disclaimer:This podcast is for educational and inspirational purposes only.

Send us a textThis week we are talking about our life lines. I ask you to consider — who's your lifeline?Not the metaphorical one, but the real, human connection that keeps you afloat when life gets heavy.We'll dig into the interesting history of the word “lifeline,” what research says about how connection affects our health and habits, and how you can create your own H-Factor system of support.It's practical and deeply human —you'll leave reminded that you were never meant to do this alone. Quote of the week“My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together.

Encore Episode 264Amy Jo is a wife, mother, small business owner, and healthcoach, and college English professor. She and her husband, Rush, have been married for 27 years and have enjoyed being empty nesters since their son married three years ago. Six years ago, enjoying life and keeping up with her many responsibilities were overwhelming. She was ballooning back up to her all-time highest weight of 300 pounds and suffering from debilitating nerve pain from a hip injury that led to labral repair surgery in December of 2016.Morbidly obese her entire adult life, she gave IF a try in January 2020, after two coworkers had been doing a version of it through a program sponsored by their school's insurance. The rest, as they say, is history. Since IF day one on January 6, 2020, Amy Jo has lost about 90 pounds and is no longer in chronic pain or taking the strong meds that helped her merely function daily. She is also finding balance after losing her Mom and entering menopause in 2023.Even with a bit of weight gain, the clean fast remains one non-negotiable ingredient for maintaining a healthy intermittent fasting lifestyle.  To join the Patreon Community- I strongly encourage you to do so, it's great.

Morgan Hamer, co-owner of NewLeaf Brokerage and founder of Morgan Manifests, who helps entrepreneurs and investors build wealth and freedom—through real estate strategy, business reinvention, and soulful alignment.As Broker-in-Charge at one of the Carolinas' top-performing commercial real estate firms, Morgan leads a powerhouse team of 15+ agents helping clients buy, sell, and scale businesses and properties with precision. And through her private mentoring under Morgan Manifests, she supports high-achieving women in business to rewire burnout patterns and build success that actually feels like freedom.Now, Morgan's own story—walking away from a high-pressure leadership role and building her own firm from scratch—shows what happens when you stop chasing someone else's vision and start creating your own. That decision cost her comfort… but it gave her back her nervous system, her peace, and her power.And while she's still scaling both businesses, her mission is clear: to help women grow without grinding, lead without losing themselves, and build wealth with values at the center.Here's where to find more:www.linkedin.com/in/morganhamerhttps://www.instagram.com/morgan.manifestshttps://newleafbrokerage.comhttps://www.morganmanifests.com________________________________________________Welcome to The Unforget Yourself Show where we use the power of woo and the proof of science to help you identify your blind spots, and get over your own bullshit so that you can do the fucking thing you ACTUALLY want to do!We're Mark and Katie, the founders of Unforget Yourself and the creators of the Unforget Yourself System and on this podcast, we're here to share REAL conversations about what goes on inside the heart and minds of those brave and crazy enough to start their own business. From the accidental entrepreneur to the laser-focused CEO, we find out how they got to where they are today, not by hearing the go-to story of their success, but talking about how we all have our own BS to deal with and it's through facing ourselves that we find a way to do the fucking thing.Along the way, we hope to show you that YOU are the most important asset in your business (and your life - duh!).
