In this episode, Brook welcomes Karen McEnany, The Good Divorce Coach, to discuss how setting the right foundation in divorce can significantly impact long-term outcomes. Divorce inherently carries conflict, but the way we navigate the early stages—our initial conditions—can determine whether the process will be calm, moderately contentious, or high-conflict. Brook and Karen explore how parents can approach divorce not as a battle, but as a transformation—one that prioritizes family over finances, mitigates unnecessary pain, and fosters healthier co-parenting relationships. They discuss the importance of intention, emotional regulation, and recognizing the difference between what truly matters and what is simply ego or control. If you're looking for a new framework to approach divorce—one that fosters cooperation, minimizes conflict, and protects your children's well-being—this episode is for you. Enjoy!

In episode 181 with Robert Barnett, Rob and I were discussing the real constraints and difficult conditions teachers find themselves in as they try to prioritise the meaningful learning and growth of their young people. This week, we are taking a broader look at the kinds of institutional structures that might actually help rather than hinder these more generative ways of living and learning - the kinds of institutions suited to the transformative adaptations and systems change that we desperately need. So in this episode I'm really happy to be speaking with Thea Snow and Toby Lowe about taking a Human Learning Systems approach to management and governance of organisations. Thea and Toby in their work at Centre for Public Impact focus primarily on public sector management. However, these principles certainly apply more broadly to institutions in the private and third sectors. This is very exciting work as it feels much more authentically connected to the beautiful and complex realities that we know we live, learn and work in and that we want to prepare our young people to embrace. But we also know that the way we are held accountable for outcomes in our work often feels simplistic and naive and entirely dissociated from these complex realities. Thea is the Regional Director for Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand at Centre for Public Impact. Thea's experiences span the public, private and not-for-profit sectors. She has worked as a commercial lawyer, a public servant, and, prior to joining CPI, at the UK's innovation foundation, NestaToby Lowe is Professor of Public Management at Manchester Metropolitan University and action researcher at Centre for Public Impact. He has also done policy work addressing poverty in neighbourhoods for the Social Exclusion Unit, worked as a public management action researcher developing the Human Learning Systems approach and held the position as Chief Executive of a participatory arts charity in North East England.You can find links in the show notes to a lot of the documents and sources we talk about in the conversation, especially if you'd like to find out more about implementing a Human Learning Systems approach in your organisation. Some of Thea's work includes:“The (il)logic of legibility – Why governments should stop simplifying complex systems”https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2021/02/12/the-illogic-of-legibility-why-governments-should-stop-simplifying-complex-systems/“Once upon a bureaucrat: exploring the role of stories in government“https://thepolicymaker.jmi.org.au/once-upon-a-bureaucrat-exploring-the-role-of-stories-in-government/“Why evidence should be the servant, not the master, of good policy”https://apolitical.co/solution-articles/en/Why-evidence-should-be-the-servant-not-the-master-of-good-policy“Public servants are tired of change-washing — not change”https://apolitical.co/solution-articles/en/public-servants-are-tired-of-change-washing-not-changeSome of Toby's work includes:Human Learning Systems: Public Service for the Real World: https://centreforpublicimpact.org/resource-hub/human-learning-systems-public-service-for-the-real-world/Harnessing Complexity for Better Outcomes in Public and Non-profit Services: https://policy.bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/harnessing-complexity-for-better-outcomes-in-public-and-non-profit-servicesHuman Learning Systems: A practical guide for the curious: https://www.centreforpublicimpact.org/assets/pdfs/hls-practical-guide.pdfVarious links from our discussion:https://www.humanlearning.systems/hls-insights-findings-from-our-research-2024/https://centreforpublicimpact.org/resource-hub/storytelling-for-systems-change/https://medium.com/centre-for-public-impact/embracing-ensembles-8e049c40b87fhttps://www.woodleigh.vic.edu.au/events-public-calendar/reimagined-conference

Given the challenges that our dialysis patients face, how can we as providers stay sharp with the latest access techniques to help ensure the best possible outcomes? Dr. Omar Davis (interventional nephrologist) and Dr. Ari Kramer (general surgeon) join host Dr. Chris Beck to discuss advanced approaches to AV access and share their experiences with the FLEX Vessel Prep device. --- This podcast is supported by: VentureMed FLEX Vessel Prep https://www.venturemedgroup.com/ --- SYNPOSIS The doctors begin by describing how they create dialysis access and what they account for during the procedure. They then focus on the role of the FLEX VP system, its benefits, and how they use it in practice, touching on the latest clinical data. Dr. Kramer and Dr. Davis also stress the importance of mental health in dialysis care and share ways that we can better support our patients through difficult diagnoses and treatments. In fact, one of their patients, Fred Hill, authored the book “Dialysis Is Not Your Life,” which offers a unique perspective for patients feeling overburdened by dialysis, and the healthcare providers who treat them. The episode concludes with case presentations and practical guidance on when to use the FLEX Vessel Prep system. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 07:00 - AV Access and Procedures 10:58 - Case Walkthrough 14:19 - Balloon Angioplasty and IVUS 24:43 - Flex VP Device and Vessel Prep 35:03 - Algorithm and Reimbursement Challenges 39:51 - Device Usage and Techniques 46:58 - Clinical Data and Outcomes 01:01:59 - Case Studies --- RESOURCES Fred Hill, “Dialysis Is Not Your Life” Founder and Author: https://www.dialysisisnotyourlife.com/meet-founder.php “Dialysis Is Not Your Life” Book: https://www.amazon.com/DIALYSIS-NOT-YOUR-LIFE-Redefine/dp/B09L4XGGNX Novel Device Prior to Balloon Angioplasty for Dysfunctional Arteriovenous Access: Analysis of a Real-World Registry by Race and Sex Cohorts: https://www.openaccessjournals.com/articles/novel-device-prior-to-balloon-angioplasty-for-dysfunctional-arteriovenousaccess-analysis-of-a-realworld-registry-by-race-and-sex-16852.html FLEX Vessel Prep 12 Month AV Registry Data and 12 Month Belong PAD Data Shows Benefit to Micro-incisions Before Balloon or DCB Treatment: https://www.venturemedgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/VEITH-Data-FINAL.pdf Angioplasty with novel, easy-to-use, bladed Flex Vessel Prep system “could replace standard of care”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRpkrURx1mc Surgical AVF Articles Atlas Condensed - sAVF Overview - Creation Maturation and Difficulties: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1f26FT65s03oZjjeZhBVy8auz0h8PTNvX3CWU5Xi_H5c/edit?usp=share_link Surgical AVF Articles Asif A, Early Arteriovenous fistula failure: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zZEWgxsdBM4MKCQFjw0U04ra_hB9Ey_N/view?usp=share_link Surgical AVF Articles Asif A - Best Vascular Access in the Elderly - Time for Innovation: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IpH-KnZyfN5Rqm_kxLnERnEJD6vcjAO8/view?usp=sharing Surgical AVF Articles EV Today - Managing Cephalic Arch Stenosis: https://drive.google.com/file/d/17yVd2M706YCtX-xTK6teesgZqzVIgUoN/view?usp=share_link VentureMed 2024 FLEX Vessel Prep System Reimbursement Guide: https://www.venturemedgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/MMA-CTO-15690_FlexVesselPrepSystem-BillingGuide_Lv6-003.pdf BackTable VI Podcast Episode #139 - AV Fistula & Graft Maintenance with Dr. Ari Kramer: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/139/av-fistula-graft-maintenance BackTable VI Podcast Episode #292 - Dialysis Interventions with Drug-Coated Balloons, Covered Stents and More with Dr. Ari Kramer: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/292/dialysis-interventions-with-drug-coated-balloons-covered-stents-more

In this episode of Derms and Conditions, host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, welcomes Michael Payette, MD, a dermatologist in private practice at Central Connecticut Dermatology, to discuss practical approaches to managing hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Dr Payette shares his experience establishing a dedicated HS clinic and provides insights into addressing diagnostic delays, patient education, and emerging treatments. They begin by discussing the importance of outreach and education to raise awareness of HS among non-dermatology health care providers, such as OB-GYNs and urgent care practitioners, highlighting how early referral and intervention can prevent long-term complications such as scarring and sinus tract formation. They then explore the role of GLP-1 therapies and biologics in HS treatment. Dr Payette shares his multimodal approach, explaining how GLP-1s address an underlying cause of inflammation while biologics target active inflammation. He outlines practical tips for managing insurance approvals and counseling patients on the benefits and potential side effects of these therapies. The episode also covers strategies for discussing lifestyle changes, such as weight loss and smoking cessation, while being sensitive to patient challenges. Dr Payette notes that combining weight reduction with biologics can often yield good outcomes, helping patients achieve better disease control and remission. Tune in to the full episode to learn how a systematic, patient-centered approach to HS management can improve outcomes for this challenging condition.

Prevent Cancer Foundation wants to make sure that every man gets up to on their routine cancer screenings. One good place to start is by encouraging men to take charge of their own health! Prevent Cancer Foundation's Early Detection Survey found that 20% of men don't make their own doctor's appointments! That's right, nearly 1 in 5 men confessed that a relative or partner usually schedules their health care appointments for them. The Prevent Cancer Foundation's annual Early Detection Survey found that: 65% of U.S. men are behind on at least one routine cancer screening.33% of men say they worry about experiencing stress while waiting for the results of a routine cancer screening.More than a third of men reported that they are better about reviewing their bank or credit card statements (33%) or getting their car's oil changed (32%), than they are about scheduling their routine cancer screenings. The prevalence of certain cancers among men—including colorectal, skin (melanoma), oral and prostate cancers, all of which have routine screenings available—illustrates the importance of empowering men to take charge of their health during Men's Health Month and all year long.  The Prevent Cancer Foundation's mission is to remind everyone – men and women – that when it comes to cancer, early detection can mean better outcomes.

I'm intrigued by her journey. It's worth going back checking that out. But before we get started today, we got a couple things. Clare, why don't you tell us about today? Clare Solly 2:12  WNational Word Nerditations, everyone, officially, Today is January 9th and it's National Word Nerd Day, which, if you know me in person, I totally am a word nerd. We celebrate National Word Nerd Day by enthusing about our favorite words, which is magnanimous and the importance of language in our culture, and whether you know what to say or always have a foot in your mouth, words are essential to success and progress, and word nerd day gives us the opportunity to learn some new words. So go flip to a page in the dictionary and find a word you don't know and celebrate Word Nerd Day.Brad Crowell 2:49  Yeah, I love that. I just typed what new word should I learn today? And (inaudible). Okay, okay, this is kind of funny. All right. Berate, this is Google's AI, berate, beseech, bestow, cease, butthurt. Really? I didn't know that was formally a word now. I thought it was two words. Apparently it's one word.Clare Solly 3:19  There you go. Learn something new everyday.Brad Crowell 3:21  Humblebrag, one word, apparently. I thought that was two words. Touch grass. That is two words, come on Google, fail, fail, fail. That's hilarious. I'm all about words myself. I think my vocabulary grew dramatically because I was a avid reader when I was a kid, and it's so funny. I just started listening to another book, and I had to slow it down because the author is on another level of words and our normal vernacular that we use all the time. I can listen to that at like, times two times three speed, and I can process the information, no problem. But I cannot listen (inaudible).Clare Solly 4:00  (inaudible) so you have to process at high rate of speed.Brad Crowell 4:04  But it's funny, because I had to slow it down to like, one five and I was like, man, it's been a long time since I listened to a book this slow, because he's using words that I have to think about before I can understand what he said. And then when you're trying to do that, you missed the next thing. I'm a big fan. I love it. I think reading will change all that. But before we get to Chris Janssen and we got a couple amazing things, here's what's coming up in the LL, the Brad future and the dogs here, although they don't get to join us for this first thing, we're going back to Cambodia in February. Clare Solly 4:34  Yay. Brad Crowell 4:36  Yeah, I'm so excited to just slip out of (inaudible) Lesley and I are gonna hop on a plane. We're gonna fly over there and prep everything for our upcoming retreat. We have an incredible group of amazing women coming with us, and one good man actually it's the son, so it's gonna be a mom-son coming. Yeah, that's gonna be really cool. And apparently he's a traveler, as it is, so I think mom's very excited that the two of them are gonna be able to share this trip together. But February is only, I think, five weeks away right now. There is still time to come. If that's something you're interested in doing. I know it's a bit short for an international trip to the other side of the world, so we have just made the announcement that Cambodia in October is also going to be happening, but it's only being announced to people who are on the waitlist. Since you're listening to this, and you might not be on the waitlist. I'm going to tell you how to find it. Go to crowsnestretreats.com crowsnestretreats.com and you will actually see all the information on there. We are running a special offer. So if you're curious about what that actually looks like, it will be on the October retreat. There is a window for that, so don't wait. Go check that out right now. As you heard us talking about through November and December, Lesley was in Los Angeles doing the accessories, flash card deck photo shoot. And man, it was the journey. We crashed with some friends that were like five minutes away from the studio, and Lesley spent an entire week busting up the guillotine. I mean, it was crazy. All the things. We had some amazing photo shoots there, and it was a lot of fun. And we can't wait to share those with you on the upcoming deck that's going to be coming out during the summer, this summer, for the accessories flash card deck. It's the last one of six decks. Go to opc.me/flashcardwaitlist opc.me/flashcardwaitlist, and we'll give you the biggest hookup that we ever offer for people, only the people on the waitlist get the hook up on this, and it's a nice discount. So make sure you do that now. This is my world here. If you are feeling stuck in your Pilates business, I can't wait to share with you three massive secrets that Lesley and I have learned after coaching more than 2500 businesses, small businesses just like you over the past seven years, because Profitable Pilates just turned seven this month. I can't even believe that. Clare Solly 6:48  Wow. Brad Crowell 6:49  I'm now offering a webinar. It's been amazing to share this information and also just connect with additional Pilates business owners and fitness business owners. But if you're feeling stuck with your money, if you're feeling stuck with getting new clients, then come join me. This is a free webinar. Go to prfit.biz/accelerator. That's profit without the O, dot biz slash accelerator. And come join me for a free webinar. I'd love to meet you and see how we can support you in what you're trying to do. And then lastly, it's going to be Lesley's birthday at the end of this month. And as you all know, we always make a big deal out of it at the end of January. So stay tuned, because there might just be something special happening over at OPC. Join the countdown. Go to opc.me/birthday, and you'll be the first to get the big reveal. That's opc.me/birthday, but first and finally, before we get to Chris Janssen, Clare, we had an audience question, and the audience was an audience of one. It was the audience of Lesley, and she's like, I'm writing a question for Clare to answer. So what are your goals, and do you set them for 2025?Clare Solly 8:01  You know, it's hysterical. It's hysterical that she asked this question of me, and I feel like she sort of set me up to say it, because for years, she and I have talked about like we we don't make New Year's resolutions. We don't make goals. Brad Crowell 8:13  Clearly, she knew this. Clare Solly 8:14  We don't make resolutions, but we do, you know, we have, I think for me, like we used to say it was a goal, and now it's like a focus. I am trying to be more present in my life and just sit in my humanness and go, I'm here to live and to breathe them into experience and whatever. And I actually saw something at the very end of the year, and it was like, go get a jar and at the end of every week, write on a piece of paper, something good that happened to you this week, and then on New Year's Eve at the end of the year go through, or New Year's Day, go through and read all the things I'm not good.Brad Crowell 8:49  That's like the coolest advent calendar that isn't an advent calendar. Clare Solly 8:53  Right? I'm not necessarily good at doing, like, the weekly journal entries, or those ones where, like, you have a journal, where you, like, write a sentence every day for five years. Like, I always think that it's a good idea. And then, you know (inaudible).Clare Solly 9:04  But then in practice, life lives. Clare Solly 9:07  But I'm gonna put this on, like, in my kitchen so I see it every morning, or I'll make it my Sunday thing. I'll sit down and I'll write out, like, something good that happened. Like, I'll put it maybe an alarm in my calendar or something. Brad Crowell 9:18  That's what I was just gonna say. If it's not on my calendar. It does not happen. And then I also, I use Hey Siri all the time, and she's going to talk to me now, because I just said that, yep. I just say, you know, remind me. And you can make a reminder in your phone. You can make it a weekly, recurring thing. And I believe with the new release on iOS, it actually just inserts it into your calendar as well. Clare Solly 9:41  That'll be, yeah, so I'm gonna, I'm gonna try that. We'll see how it goes. You can have me back next January, and we'll talk about that. Brad Crowell 9:48  We'll keep you posted. That's really cool, because what an awesome tool. And here's what's cool about that, too. It doesn't have to just be like, Okay, throw those ones out and start next year's. You could actually keep those. You could put those, the way I'm imagining it, if you're putting them into a jar, then maybe they're on like, a long, thin piece of paper. You could eventually just put those into a book, you know, and then that could become your journal. Five years from now, you got five years of those once a week. You got 250 of them. I mean, what an amazing way to celebrate life.Clare Solly 10:21  And it's funny too, because it's like there are some things we go through day to day that are or week by week, that are little wins, or that feel like they were a gigantic thing this week. But like, you look back in hindsight and you're like, okay, great, I did that. Or you can't even remember when you did it, so I don't know. So now (inaudible). Brad Crowell 10:40  I just imagine passing that along years from now, you know. Like I'm thinking, what if my grandparents did that, you know? And I'm like, I've got this weird window until like 1953, you know, that could be really cool. Anyway, I love it. I think that's a really clever idea. I think the more that we.Clare Solly 11:00  Celebrate little things? Brad Crowell 11:02  I was gonna say New Year's resolutions just get me annoyed. We are fighting perfectionism, and I think that the new year's resolution sets us up for failure, because if life lives and something jacks up the week and you forgot to do the thing, what is the first inclination? Blame yourself. I fucked it up again. And instead of that, I feel like I like the guidelines or the goals, you know that aren't this like, I'm gonna start exercising every day. I'm gonna quit drinking for the month of January. I'm gonna whatever it is. I think when we set it as like this concrete thing, it ends up becoming just one more rule that we have to live by.Clare Solly 11:40  I mean, I think it's a nice idea, especially for those of us in the northern hemisphere where it's very cold and it's winter, we have nothing else to do but to like, focus on ourselves. But there's only so much nasal gazing, navel, I sound (inaudible).Brad Crowell 11:55  How do we gaze up our nasal? Clare Solly 11:57  Navel-gazing that you can do before it becomes like you're just picking at a scab and you're that perfectionist still trying to chip away, and it's like I am who I am at this point. And yes, there are things that could be tweaked, and there are ways I could be healthier, and there are ways that I could do better, but honestly appreciating who I am now. And we always say meeting someone else where they are, but meeting myself where I am right now. Like, let's go there, let's have that (inaudible) 2025 so.Brad Crowell 12:28  Hey I love that. That's a good New Year's resolution. Let's meet ourselves where we are. Clare Solly 12:32  Yeah. Brad Crowell 12:35  I love it. Okay, stick around. We'll be right back, and we're gonna get into Lesley's interview with Chris Janssen. Brad Crowell 12:42  All right, now let's talk about Chris Janssen. Chris Janssen is a life coach and author who specializes in assisting high-achieving perfectionists in navigating performance pressure, overcoming self-sabotage and rewriting personal narratives. Her second book, Grace Yourself: How to Show Up for the Sober Life You Want, offers practical tools and exercises to help individuals find meaning in life's uncomfortable events. Passionate about making transformation accessible. Chris guides people through the process of personal growth, empowering them to achieve the life they desire. I love it. Clare Solly 13:20  It was a great, great podcast, like I took so much away from it. So this is gonna, you know, buckle up, go back and listen to it again, like it was so good. One thing she said I really loved was high-achieving perfectionists attach meaning to life, to events and circumstances that are beyond our control. That, again, Lesley and I both claim to be recovering people-pleasers and perfectionists. So the fact that, yes, we attach so much, you know, we tried to go to the grocery store today, and instead we had to answer a phone call or family dropped over. You know, we just had holidays, right? So it's like, so many unexpected things happen, and then arguments arise, conversations arise, and you weren't necessarily ready to handle those because it was the holidays, and you just wanted to be like, happy and live through all that. Or we just talked about goals and resolutions, right? You set out to have a goal and a resolution and life lives, and you just can't stick with what new you know? Brad Crowell 14:24  Or something gets in the way and it blocks that is out of your control. And I think one of the things that Lesley said during the interview was really relevant to the people that we get to coach. She said that, okay, cool. Now my next goal is I'm gonna go out and get four new clients, and that's not in our control. We can certainly do all the things to put ourselves in a position to receive new clients and to connect with people, but we can't make the decision for them to actually be our client. Right? So if we're like, I didn't get four new clients, then you feel like a failure, but that shouldn't necessarily be the thing that, you know, like, what you can control is your messaging, the effort you put in getting it out there, putting yourself in the place where you're going to meet those people. You can control those things, but you can't control them being like, yes, right? Clare Solly 15:20  You can control your output and your reaction, but that's all you can control. Other people rolling around this life are having their own journey, and they have all their own life lifeing happening. I'm feeling that Brad, by the way.Brad Crowell 15:32  And timing is so much a part of it. Yeah, yeah, steal it out. Steal away. I don't know where what that, that just happened on the pod at one point, but I don't remember the specific moment. But yeah, I think, you know, there's a lot of shame and guilt associated with failure that isn't necessarily failure, because we can't control those things. So anyway, it's one of those things that we don't actually put our finger on very often, where we're like, hey, wait a minute. I don't have the final say in the events that have unfolded here, but we still blame ourselves for it. So I thought that was really profound, too. I really dug when she was talking about that we make it impossibly difficult to succeed in getting what we want, yet tragically easy to fail at getting what we want. So think about that. We make it impossibly difficult to succeed, yet tragically easy to fail at getting what you want. And she said, yeah, let's talk about happiness. So the rule you set for yourself is to be happy, and the way that you determine your happiness is that people will like you, if people like you, then you're going to be happy. Right? So this goes right back to what we were just talking about, you know, where we don't have control over it, in that the validation that we're looking for, the validation that we're trying to, to what we've defined as success, isn't available for us to lock down, right? That's like setting ourselves up for failure, exactly like she's saying here. We'll make it tragically easy to fail. If that's our measuring stick for being happy, then we're really screwed. But it's funny how often that we do that to ourselves. Chris said something that I wanted her to say, like, two or three more times in a row. Just say it over and over again. We should ditch the rule of, "I'm measuring my happiness based on how people like me." Ditch the rule, and just go after the outcome of, "I'm going to be happy." Right? And that's going to allow us to get all those other things out of the way. I mean, this could be success, right? Like sales, I have to keep selling. This could be again, clients. Our worthiness is determined based on the performance that we're doing or the people that we're helping. That's our measuring stick. What happens after you've taught Pilates for 50 years and you can't teach anymore? What does that mean for you at that point in your life? You know, it's so interesting. This comes down to identity, you know, and what we tie to how we define ourselves internally, and then something will change, you know, what if there's an accident and you can't be doing the things that you're doing anymore, or what if something comes through that changes?Clare Solly 18:24  Yeah. And sometimes we change. Sometimes we realize our dreams and our goals are not what we wanted to do. Lesley talks about this all the time, yeah. When I met her, she was going in a direction, and her life changed, and she realized she couldn't go in that direction anymore. And sometimes you can't base your happiness on that measuring stick, right? You have to be both flexible and focused at the same time, but the flexibility sometimes is more important and living life, seeing what rises up for you. Brad Crowell 18:55  Yeah, yeah, totally. Stick around. We'll be right back. We're going to dig into those Be It Action Items. All right. So finally, let's talk about those Be It Action Items. Say with me here. What bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from Lesley's convo with Chris Janssen? I'm gonna jump right in here. She said hey, stick to your commitments. Don't wait for motivation or inspiration. Commit to it. Get in action and just do it. There'll be seasons or days or times when we don't feel like showing up, but that's when we're going to show up anyway and stick to those commitments. So she's talking about sobriety, right? And one thing that I found was so powerful is she said, hey, the perspective needs to be flipped. It's not oh my god, I have to be sober now. Instead, it's, Oh, I get to be sober, you know? And I thought, wow, what an amazing way to look at it, because it gives you permission to be sober. In fact, it's a joy to be sober in that perspective. And when the challenge comes along of, oh, I wish I was drinking or I want to have a drink right now. Now, instead of it being a negative, oh, I just, I have to be fucking sober right now. Instead, it's a positive, no, no, I get to be sober, and that really will help you stick to your commitment. That was super powerful. Clare Solly 20:25  Yeah, I agree. I like that she mentioned focus on your commitments over your craving. So focus on what you want in life. Focus on what you are trying to get and trying to get to. You know, not necessarily that end goal, but what does today look like, and to tweak the tactics and not the goal. So how do I get from point A to B if I can't use the bridge? How do I drive from my house to the grocery store if I can't get to the bridge? Or how? How can I get from the job that I'm in now to being a Pilates instructor without sacrificing my entire life, you know, again, or sobriety, like we have many, many, many options here. Also, I just want to flag. I love that she has been not sober once, but twice. And I love when people come forward with these stories, that we as humans can just sit there in humanness and not necessarily have to live the life that she did, but understanding through her failure, and then reading this book or hearing her talk, and just realize we we don't have to go backwards. Just keep going for I like that she used the word grit, too. Just keep pushing through and get to where you need to go. And whether that's you've experienced it yourself, you're listening to somebody else's experience something parallel to what you're living in. And love that. And I love that. She said something else too, that it's a small shift to get to where you need to be extraordinary. So just loved this. Loved it. Brad Crowell 21:48  I like how these two things kind of go together. It's almost like this yours is like the step before sticking to the commitment. If understanding the permission structure and the framing structure helps you stick to your commitments. Then when that challenge comes along and you're focused on your craving, I want this thing. I need this thing. Or my perfectionism, I have to have it perfectly correct. There is still a moment in there. We have to identify that you're in that moment. And that's when she says, Hey, you have to focus on your commitments. And it's easier to focus on your commitments if you also understand why you're doing it. You mentioned that she was sober two times. When she got sober, the first time, she said, well, there wasn't this rock bottom of like, oh my God, everything exploded. She said, I felt like I needed to do this, and I had kids coming, and that was a enough of a catalyst to make it happen. But then 14 years later, when her kids were in their teens, she was like, I can't really remember why I got sober, because it wasn't this like explosive event in her world that blew everything up. And then when she decided to drink again, that's actually when things went down pretty hard, and she said she did have a rock bottom, and fortunately, she, you know, has someone in her life who was able to support her through that, her spouse, but she said focusing on her why? Yeah, probably would have kept her from choosing to drink again in the 14 years later, because she had forgotten the sparkle of the why that moment. You know, I think that's also another amazing thing that will help you stick to your commitments, is focusing on your why. Brad Crowell 21:49  So, listen, y'all, we think you're amazing.

In today's episode, I'm joined by Alex Farling from Empath. In the last episode, Luis Giraldo and I were talking about vCIO. Alex was listening to the episode and took up my challenge to fight us in the comments. Alex has lots of opinions and experience in the vCIO field, having built one of the leading platforms for vCIO out there. Interestingly, even Alex says he hates the term vCIO and explains why. We also discuss "firing" clients, the critical role of communication in maintaining positive relationships, agendas, and the nuanced roles required in smaller MSPs. This is another episode packed with insights and on the role of account management in the MSP space. So get ready to rethink the vCIO role again with us on the Evolved Radio Podcast! This episode is brought to you by Evolved Management Training Courses.

Edward Lorenz, a meteorologist and mathematician, formulated a theory called the butterfly effect—based on a hypothetical scenario in which a butterfly, simply by flapping its wings, affects a tornado weeks later. The butterfly effect illustrates how small actions in complex systems can lead to big changes, underscoring the challenges in making forecasts. This is particularly relevant for investors. A complex global economy often takes unexpected turns, and macro disruptions and uncertainty present challenges for those navigating financial markets. But with this knowledge, investors could make better decisions by challenging conventional wisdom and taking a long-term view. The Season 5 premiere of The Outthinking Investor explores how investors can steer through economic volatility and pursue sound portfolio construction for the long run. Philipp Carlsson-Szlezak, Boston Consulting Group's Global Chief Economist, and Robert Tipp, PGIM Fixed Income's Chief Investment Strategist, discuss the forces that may drive change in the economy, potential risks to the outlook, how market fears can distract from real long-term consequences, emerging opportunities in fixed-income markets, and structural changes resulting from a higher level of expected interest rates.

Value-based care (VBC) is critical to the evolving healthcare landscape. As the U.S. population ages and healthcare costs continue to rise, achieving value-based care success has become a primary goal for the system, which seeks to optimize care while maintaining financial sustainability. According to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), by 2030, all Medicare beneficiaries are expected to be enrolled in accountable care arrangements.The stakes are high with this impending shift. How can healthcare providers deliver better outcomes while also cutting costs? What does the future of value-based care hold, and how are healthcare leaders preparing to adapt?On this episode of I Don't Care, hosted by Kevin Stevenson, healthcare expert John Carter, Brand Ambassador for Pinnacle Healthcare Consulting, sheds light on the evolution of VBC, key challenges, and emerging solutions to ensure value-based care success.Key Points from the Episode:Evolution of Value-Based Care: Carter tracks the progression from the Affordable Care Act's early initiatives to newer models like ACO REACH and the upcoming AHEAD model, emphasizing the need for innovative approaches to managing healthcare costs.The Role of Preventative Care: Both Carter and Stevenson stress that the healthcare industry must focus on preventative care and early intervention, especially as the baby boomer generation becomes fully Medicare-eligible by 2030.Specialist Integration in VBC: With a shortage of physicians, especially in specialty care, Carter highlights the need for better integration between primary and specialty care providers within VBC models to improve efficiency and patient outcomes.John Carter is the Brand Ambassador for Pinnacle Healthcare Consulting, where he works closely with teams across five companies under Pinnacle's umbrella to deliver tailored solutions for large national healthcare clients.

In today's fast-paced world, it seems like everyone is talking about being “triggered.” But what does it really mean, and how can leaders and employees manage their triggers to stay focused and productive? In this episode, Dr. Mike Patterson and Jeff Gaines dive into how to become “triggerproof,” offering practical strategies to overcome workplace stress and emotional reactions. Dr. Mike welcomes Jeff Gaines, a personal development expert with over 30 years of experience working with leaders across industries. Jeff introduces his latest offering, Triggerproof, a program designed to help leaders and teams manage their emotional responses in high-stress environments. Jeff breaks down human motivation into two drives: the urge to create and the urge to protect. When we're triggered, we move into protection mode, often subconsciously. Jeff explains how triggers aren't always obvious—most people don't look visibly upset or angry. Instead, they quietly disengage, reduce productivity, or withhold valuable feedback that could improve decision-making. Throughout the conversation, Jeff discusses his Three Drivers model, which explains how our thoughts and emotions are shaped by a "screen" of unconscious processing. This screen often distorts reality, leading to emotional responses that seem disproportionate to the situation. Jeff's program teaches leaders how to recognize these distortions and manage them effectively. He also emphasizes the importance of emotional resilience and collaboration in the workplace. Whether you're a leader looking to encourage honest feedback or a team member trying to overcome stress, understanding and managing triggers is key to thriving in today's work environment. Key Takeaways: Triggers Are Not Always Visible: People may not outwardly express when they're triggered, but it impacts their work. Managing the "Screen": Our emotions and logic are shaped by a filter that distorts reality. Learning to manage this screen is crucial. Emotional vs. Logical Decisions: While we often think we're making logical decisions, emotions play a larger role than we realize. Resilience Tools: Building emotional resilience helps us bounce back faster when triggered, leading to better collaboration and decision-making. Jeff Gaines' approach offers practical, real-world strategies for managing emotional responses in the workplace. By understanding how our brains process information and learning to manage our reactions, we can foster healthier, more productive work environments.
