Send us a textCan you really boost your IVF success rate by doing everything before an embryo transfer? In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols breaks down one of the most common misconceptions in fertility treatment — the belief that more testing automatically means better results. From ERA and Receptiva testing to add-ons like PRP or HCG washes, Dr. Amols explains why these extra steps can't push your chances beyond what the embryo already has — because you can't beat the math.Using simple numbers, national success rate data, and a memorable coin-flip analogy, he helps you understand how cumulative odds really work, when testing does make sense, and why giving “120%” isn't possible in IVF. Whether you're preparing for your first transfer or recovering from a failed one, this episode will help you focus on what truly improves your chances — patience, persistence, and perspective.Thanks for tuning in to another episode of 'Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday' with Dr. Mark Amols.

Episode 97 ✨ Which Comes First: Belief or Action? Two Musts for Better Results In this week's episode of Trusting Dorothy, we're diving into the two must-have ingredients for lasting results, whether in health, fitness, business, or life. Results don't come from doing more; they come from a powerful blend of belief and compliance (consistent action). But here's the real question: Which comes first? Do you need to believe in yourself before you can stay consistent, or does consistency itself build belief? In this episode, Dorothy unpacks: Why external validation keeps belief fragile How to shift from hope → deep self-trust The role of compliance (and why “noncompliance” is often disbelief, not laziness) Subconscious reasons we avoid consistency, and how to face them safely How belief and action fuel each other to create momentum Whether you're on a health journey, building a business, or simply trying to follow through on something important, this episode will help you strengthen the foundation that makes all results possible. self-trust, belief in yourself, health results, fitness consistency, habit change, mindset, action vs belief, self-discipline, nervous system regulation, weight loss mindset Resources & Links: Explore Within: A Return to Self – A 21-Day Journey of Embodied Calm, Clarity, and Deep Self-Trust →https://www.dorothymcgatlin.com/Within-Waitlist Move your body with me inside The Lift Library → HERE _____________________________________________________ Click HERE for the Show Notes.

In Chapter 10 we talk about Letybo (made by Hugel, Korea) and how to get the best out of it. We discuss the unique properties of Letibotulinum toxin including its precision and reduced diffusion, which make it particularly effective for areas where precision can't be compromised.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking that if you just had the right fitness tracker, the perfect app, or the latest gadget, your health and fitness goals would finally click into place?   I get it. Data feels safe. Numbers feel concrete. When everything about your body, health, fitness, and weight loss feels unpredictable, numbers might feel like a lifeline. But here's the truth: Your Oura ring won't get you to bed earlier. Your food tracking app won't put vegetables on your plate. And your CGM won't stop you from reaching for those M&Ms.   Tune in this week to learn about how you might be over-scientizing weight loss - a phenomenon I see repeatedly with clients who fill their homes with gadgets, but aren't using that information to guide or change their actions.    Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://carriehollandmd.com/167

So many women in business are stuck asking the same small, disempowered questions: “How do I get clients? Why isn't this working? What am I missing?” I get it — I've been there too. I've had the nights of scribbling in my journal, looping on “I don't know what to do,” drowning in inner work, or over-consuming content hoping the secret answer would appear. But here's the truth: staying in that energy of “I don't know” keeps you in confusion and overwhelm. And confusion doesn't build a business. Leadership does. In this episode, we're talking about the power of the questions you're asking — because the quality of your questions will always reflect the quality of your leadership and your results. When you're asking small, victim-y, disempowered questions, you create small, stuck energy. When you ask bigger, bolder, more powerful questions, you create clarity, movement, and results. This isn't about finding the one magic strategy or someone else's three-step formula. It's about realizing that you already know more than you're giving yourself credit for — and deciding to lead yourself with what you've got. If you've been spiraling in “I don't know” energy, this conversation is your reminder to stop handing your power away and start leading with better, stronger questions. Because leaders don't wait for answers. Leaders create them.

Science proves it: a clutter-free space reduces stress, sharpens focus, and drives productivity. In this episode, learn how to use cleaning as a pre-performance ritual to create mental clarity, boost results, and reclaim your energy. Identify one space that's draining you—and commit to clearing it today.You Got This, Ryan

Episode 2683 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss advertising, the Beyond Meat rebranding, and how a better diet means better results, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/08/better-diet-means-better-results-episode-2683 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS   YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - A Better Diet Means Better Results The Billy Joel documentary is super-engaging. (2:00) It's on HBO Max, and you must have an HBO Max account if you want to view it on Amazon. The documentary is in two parts and is called “Billy Joel: And So It Goes.” Vinnie addresses the Sydney Sweeney American Eagle jeans ad. (10:45) The outcry on social media appears to be unfounded. Beyond Meat has made a branding change and has shortened its name to just “Beyond.” (29:00) Vinnie's documentary “Beyond Impossible” addresses issues with fake meat. They discuss other fake foods and ingredients, including JUST “eggs.” (32:15) The FDA allows marketing on labels to include misinformation. Proteins from things like legumes are not equal to the complete amino acids and ratios of animal protein. (38:00) They review the “new and improved” recipe by Beyond. (40:00) Pure Coffee Club has a fun announcement. (42:00) Vinnie understands what it means to be overweight, eat cheap foods, and have a sugar addiction. (48:30) There's a revelation about changes to some brands of canned tuna. (52:00) They discuss an article in Sports Illustrated that states that exercise helps with weight loss. There needs to be clarification: weight loss doesn't happen unless you're eating the proper diet. (55:00) Eating the proper ratio of fat and protein will magnify weight loss. Exercise alone while eating a ton of carbs will not help your body burn fat for weight loss. The article was trying to emphasize that if you are on a diet, the more you exercise, the less muscle you lose, which helps your metabolism. (58:15) A better diet means better results. In the 1950s, people were often leaner because we were a less sedentary society. (1:00:00) More News If you are interested in the NSNG® VIP group, it will be reopening soon.

This week on Expert, we’re tackling one of skincare’s most confusing topics: ingredient percentages. You know the ones — 10% vitamin C, 20% glycolic acid — but does a bigger number actually mean better results, or just better marketing? Tegan and Jas break down when high percentages truly make a difference, when they just cause irritation, and why more isn’t always better. We’re diving into actives, skin barrier health, and the myths brands love to sell — plus the unsung product heroes quietly doing the heavy lifting behind the scenes. Plus, we reveal what really makes a product work (spoiler: it’s not just the star ingredient) and share how to read labels like a pro, beyond the percentages. In Beauty IQ Hotline, we help a listener whose makeup keeps sliding off by 11 a.m. — uncovering the sneaky culprits behind separation and quick fixes to keep your look fresh all day. And in Win, Bin or Recycle, we weigh in on the surprisingly controversial trend of… duck nails. Yes, really. Join the conversation in our Beauty IQ Uncensored Facebook Group to discuss this episode, swap beauty tips, and submit your questions for future shows.

In this episode of Building Better Developers, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit their earlier topic from “User Stories Unveiled – A Developer's Guide to Capturing the Full Narrative.” They add structure and talking points—some suggested by ChatGPT—but the real focus remains on how to effectively use user stories in software development. At their core, user stories help teams communicate purpose and intent. They turn generic requirements into actionable, testable narratives that align with real-world needs. The Power of Story: A Proven Format for Software Success User stories follow a simple but powerful structure: As a [user], I want [feature], so that [benefit]. This format helps everyone—from developers to stakeholders—understand what's needed and why. For instance: As a customer, I want to check my account balance so I can make smart spending decisions. Even that brief statement can imply multiple technical requirements. Rob explains how this format helps uncover both functional and non-functional needs—making user stories in software development a critical tool for better results. Turning User Stories Into Requirements That Work Michael takes the discussion deeper by showing how user stories translate into system requirements. Each story triggers important “what if” scenarios: What if there's no balance data? How should errors be handled? What's the next logical user action? These questions drive refinement. The more complete the story, the fewer assumptions developers have to make. When applied well, user stories in software development help identify edge cases and clarify expectations early. Using User Stories in Software Development to Drive Testing Another benefit of user stories? They support test-driven development (TDD). Michael points out that frameworks like Cucumber allow you to write test cases in plain, user-focused language. These tests validate features against the original intent of the story. User stories help developers think from the user's perspective. Instead of focusing on implementation first, they focus on proof. What needs to work—and how do we confirm that it does? What Makes a Great User Story in Software Development? Rob introduces the INVEST model, a proven framework for evaluating user stories: Independent Negotiable Valuable Estimable Small Testable These qualities ensure that stories are manageable, relevant, and easy to test. The team emphasizes avoiding overly technical stories that don't reflect user value. The goal is always to create stories that can guide discussion, development, and testing without confusion. Pitfalls to Avoid When Writing User Stories One major mistake? Saying “Just tell me what to build.” Rob warns this is a dangerous mindset that reduces developers to order-takers. Instead, good developers ask why, challenge assumptions, and uncover the real goals behind each feature. Michael notes that in smaller teams, developers often take on the role of product owner or analyst. That means refining and sometimes even writing the user stories themselves. In those cases, clarity and curiosity become essential to avoid rework or misalignment. Prioritizing and Revisiting User Stories in Software Development Not every story belongs in version 1.0. The hosts advise teams to revisit their backlog and separate must-haves from nice-to-haves. Many projects waste time building features that never get used—often because they weren't properly vetted. Use user stories to define your MVP (Minimum Viable Product). Anything outside of that can go into a backlog for future releases. This helps teams stay focused and deliver real value quickly. Final Thoughts: Better Stories, Better Software This episode reinforces a simple truth: user stories in software development are a gateway to better communication, clearer requirements, and stronger software outcomes. When teams understand the who, what, and why of every feature, they build smarter solutions faster. Callout: Don't Code Without a Story Before you build anything, ask: Who is this for? What do they want? Why does it matter? Let purpose drive your process—and let the user lead the story.

***JOIN THE NEXT MASTER YOUR FASTING CHALLENGE THAT STARTS August 13th, 2025!*** We'll GUIDE you on how to FAST to LOSE FAT for good, and use ‘fast cycling' to achieve uncommon results! REGISTER HERE! Click the link for DATES, DETAILS, and FAQs! This episode reveals game-changing research from a meta-analysis of 30 randomized controlled trials with 1,341 participants that will transform how you approach intermittent fasting. Dr. Scott and Tommy break down the shocking discovery that fasting without calorie counting produces DOUBLE the weight loss compared to fasting while tracking calories - 6.22 pounds versus 3.22 pounds respectively. More importantly, only the non-calorie counting fasting group saw significant improvements in fasting glucose (8-point drop), insulin levels (6.3 point reduction), cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood pressure, while the calorie-controlled group showed no consistent metabolic improvements. Learn why obsessing over hitting your daily calorie targets during eating windows actually sabotages your fasting benefits by potentially causing you to overeat, creating exaggerated blood sugar spikes, and interfering with natural hunger and satiety cues. The hosts explain how fasting naturally creates caloric restriction through appetite regulation and circadian biology optimization, making manual calorie counting unnecessary and counterproductive. Discover why the simplification approach - choosing an eating window and sticking to it consistently while prioritizing protein - outperforms complicated tracking methods for sustainable weight loss and metabolic health. This episode provides the scientific validation that fasting works best when you trust the process and let your body's natural mechanisms guide food intake, rather than forcing predetermined calorie targets. Essential listening for anyone frustrated with calorie counting approaches or wondering whether they need to track macros while intermittent fasting. The research conclusively shows: fasting simplifies everything while delivering superior results. ⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.
