Ready to regain your confidence and clarity during divorce? Join Karen McMahon's High Conflict Divorce Support Group—a 6-session group coaching program designed to help you manage triggers, set boundaries, and take back control.  -- 2024 cracked me open. It was one of the hardest years I've lived through—personally and professionally. I felt misaligned with my values, burned out in my work, and disconnected from the joy and freedom I preach to others. But in the summer, I read The Big Leap, and something shifted. I started a year-long commitment to stepping into my Zone of Genius, facing my Upper Limit Problems head-on, and saying YES to what scared me most… and life hasn't been the same since. In this solo episode, I take you behind the scenes of my Big Leap year. I talk about dating again after a decade (gulp!), redefining fun, getting back on my bike (and maybe soon my rollerblades), losing 15 pounds not from restriction, but from celebrating myself differently. I share how I moved from wine on weekdays to novels on the beach, from overworking to letting my work flow from joy. I even caught myself starting arguments in my head—just to feed my old programming. The self-awareness has been wild...and so freeing. And yes, we talk business too. I had tantrums. I doubted. But I kept moving forward. I've reconnected with the why behind Journey Beyond Divorce, and am reimagining the how. I'm sharing what's lighting me up: podcasting, group programs, deep partnerships, and creating space for you to take your Big Leap too. This isn't just my story—it's an invitation for you to leap right alongside me.

We often treat money as the finish line. We chase it, measure ourselves by it, and let it shape our choices. But in doing so, we lose sight of the real question: What are we trading our money for—and is it making us truly flourish?As we live in a world that often celebrates achievement, it's easy to build wealth while unintentionally bankrupting other parts of our lives, such as our time, our energy, and our relationships. In this episode of the Happiness Squad Podcast, Ashish Kothari sits down with Tom Shepard to unpack the frameworks and habits that can transform how you relate to money, not just to grow your wealth, but to help you flourish.Tom Shepard is the Founder and CEO of Shepard Financial and author of Money Isn't Everything, Everything Is Money.

His book introduces the Seven Financial Natures framework—a practical guide to transforming your relationship with money by valuing not just wealth, but also time, energy, and connection.Many of us follow money patterns inherited from the past, without ever pausing to ask if they align with the future we hope to create. That's why even though we live a life that looks "successful," it doesn't really feel fulfilling.Today, you can change that. Tune in to learn how to stop letting money control your story, and start using it to write a more fulfilling one.Resources:• Money Isn't Everything, Everything Is Money: https://tomshepardeverythingismoney.com • Shepard Financial's website: https://www.shepard-financial.com• Currency Camp: https://www.currencycamp.com/ Books:• Money Isn't Everything, Everything Is Money: A Personalized Approach to Valuing and Trading Time, Energy, Relationships and Money by Tom Shepard : https://a.co/d/h69psqf • The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks: https://a.co/d/5FBeEpE • Hardwired for Happiness by Ashish Kothari: https://a.co/d/8Lj9uZy

Welcome to the Essential You podcast, where executive coach Mark Mathia guides listeners in discovering their true potential. In this episode, Mark delves into the concept of upper limits, those invisible barriers we set on our joy, success, and love. Drawing insights from Gay Hendricks' book, The Big Leap, Mark explores why we self-sabotage through these barriers and how they keep us from fulfilling our dreams. Listeners will learn how to identify and break free from their upper limits to tap into their zone of genius. Mark shares personal experiences and actionable techniques, including the Ultimate Success Mantra, savoring positive feelings, and practicing Einstein time, to help individuals elevate their lives. Tune in to uncover how you can expand in abundance, success, and love and inspire those around you to do the same.

I'm so honoured to sit down with one of the most influential voices in the world of personal growth and conscious living — Dr. Gay Hendricks. Gay is a psychologist, teacher, and the bestselling author of The Big Leap — among other groundbreaking books that has transformed the way we understand success, happiness, and self-sabotage. In this conversation, we explore one of Gay's central concepts - that subtle, often invisible ceiling we place on ourselves and the immense possibility of our lives. At the heart of Gay's work lies the Zone of Genius — that sacred space where our deepest passion meets our highest contribution. Yet, many of us unconsciously limit our time in that zone, retreating into comfort zones and old patterns that feel familiar, even if they hold us back. We talk about why we do that, and more importantly, how to stop. Gay shares profound yet practical tools for learning to feel your feelings fully, without escaping, numbing, or analysing them away. He teaches us how to be radically present with ourselves, to expand our capacity for joy, success, and love — not through force, but through awareness. Whether you're a high achiever, a creative, or someone simply longing to break through to your next level, this episode is an invitation to take your own Big Leap — into a life that's not just productive, but deeply aligned, awake, and alive.   Feelings with Strangers   Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@FeelingswithStrangers/videos   Socials https://www.instagram.com/feelings.with.strangers/   Gay Hendricks   Site https://hendricks.com/?v=8bcc25c96aa5   Socials  https://www.instagram.com/hendricks.gay?utm_source=chatgpt.com

Coach Ted talks about what happens when you unlock potential.

Most women don't realize how uncomfortable they are with feeling good—until things start going too well. That's when the sabotage creeps in. A snappy comment. A skipped workout. An unnecessary glass of wine. In today's episode, Colleen breaks down the concept of the “upper limit problem” from The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks—and explains how perfectionists and people-pleasers unknowingly block joy, ease, and success by clinging to struggle. You'll learn how your emotional thermostat gets set in childhood, why guilt and discomfort with pleasure keep you stuck, and how to reset your internal baseline so peace and happiness stop feeling unsafe. This episode is a powerful reminder that you don't have to earn your joy. You just have to stop arguing for your limitations.  

In this podcast, I walk you through a powerful planning exercise: the monthly course correct. This is the tool that keeps you on track so that you can make progress on the big and little goals you set for yourself.

*A new format for the podcast!*Because I often talk about things a few months before they happen, I think it will be helpful to title these segments "Planting Seeds". You might not be ready to think about the end of summer, but this is exactly when you might need to start planning for it! So in this first "planting seeds" segment I talk about the end of summer from two points of view: 1) for people with school age children and 2) for people who don't have to plan around kids.

How do we keep working when tragedy shakes our lives? If seismic events disrupt our foundations, is it possible to build something new with confidence?For Ellie Scarf, suffering a heartbreaking loss led to profound changes that have moved her from her zone of excellence into her zone of genius, where she draws upon her experiences to offer her coaching clients an approach and a service that is uniquely her own.In this episode of The Coach's Journey Podcast, Ellie recounts the steps that took her from working as a lawyer in top tier legal firms to becoming a national sales coach for a billion dollar company.

In this vulnerable and refreshingly honest episode, I'm sharing something that might surprise some of you: I've started working a 9-5 corporate job! After five years of running my online business, I've made a significant life change that I'm actually incredibly excited about.I dive deep into my journey as an online entrepreneur - from the highs of location freedom and six-figure years to the challenging reality of feeling disconnected from my work despite outward success. I explore that uncomfortable space of "being unhappy in a business that everyone else is impressed with" and how I tried everything to fall in love with my business again.During our trip to Italy earlier this year, sitting in our dream Airbnb with a hot tub on the balcony overlooking Puglia, I had the stark realization: "What am I doing with my life?" Despite achieving the freedom lifestyle I thought I wanted, something fundamental was missing.I share the exact moment when I finally stopped ignoring my intuition and decided to explore a new path. You'll hear about my job search process (with zero corporate experience!), how I found a sales role that perfectly matches my skills, and how I'm navigating this major transition.For those wondering - no, I'm not shutting down my business! I'm currently balancing both, working about 10-15 hours per week on client projects alongside my full-time job. This episode is for anyone questioning if they're on the right path, feeling stuck in their zone of excellence instead of their zone of genius, or curious about transitioning from full-time entrepreneurship to corporate life.Remember to tune into your intuition - sometimes the right path doesn't make sense on paper, but feels completely right when you follow it.Resources from this episode:Book recommendation: "The Big Leap" by Gay Hendricks (exploring the concept of zone of genius vs. zone of excellence)Connect with Sam:Website: https://www.systemswithsam.com/services Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/systemswithsam/ ​​LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samwhiz/

Have you ever wondered what it takes to overcome self-sabotage and truly live in your 'Zone of Genius'? In this enlightening episode, I sit down with the legendary Gay Hendricks, bestselling author of The Big Leap and Your Big Leap Year, who has served for more than 30 years as one of the major contributors to the fields of relationship transformation and body-mind therapies.Gay shares profound insights on the "upper limit problem" – how we unconsciously create problems when things are going too well because we've hit our internal thermostat for success, love, or abundance. Through personal stories and client experiences, he illuminates how these patterns manifest and offers practical wisdom for breaking through them.If you've ever felt like you're holding yourself back or playing small despite your capabilities, Gay's warm, authentic approach offers transformative guidance for embracing your full potential and living in your unique genius.What You'll Learn in This Episode:

Are you unknowingly holding yourself BACK from earning MORE? There are 7 limiting beliefs that women business owners often tell themselves – beliefs that keep them undercharging, overworking, and second-guessing their success. In this episode, we are addressing those limiting beliefs head-on and talking about how to shift your thinking in order to leave more room for growth. And these aren't just “mindset tips”, they are backed by research, real-life success stories, and proven strategies that have helped women business owners increase their revenue. If you've ever thought…  “Making that amount of money is for other people, not ME.”“If I want more money, I'll need to work twice as hard.”“If I start making more, the people in my life will think of me differently.”  … then this episode is for you. What You'll Learn in this Episode:  -> Why your mindset around money directly impacts your revenue (and what the science and research shows!) -> The hidden beliefs keeping women from charging what they are actually worth. -> How tweaking your thoughts around money can change everything for you and your business. -> Why making more money does NOT mean working harder or longer hours. -> The #1 shift that helps you become the financially confident version of yourself. -> Why you need to stop prioritising others' judgements before your ability to grow and succeed. -> And, you'll get a special invitation to our upcoming Profitable Business Workshop for Women Business Owners on Wednesday, 19 March.

Thoughts create our reality- but our beliefs shape everything. Our attachment to those thoughts, especially the ones about US and our identity matters most. As we do the work of non-attachment, recognize beliefs we hold, and shift them- we feel success on the inside and manifest it on the outside. In today's episode you'll hear: Why our beliefs matter so much, and how to tap into the subconscious ones (so much more than the regular “thought work”).What is blocking us from the success we want (and how to shift it).The Big Leap's Upper Limit Problem (and it's connection to shame work). Doing the inner work, “success is an inside job”.I would love to support you 1:1 over the next 12 months, deep-diving into everything I talked about today: www.coachcrystal.ca/miracle---Links to Crystal's work, to help on your own inner journey: Intuitive Journaling Prompts HERE and a somatic meditation (Move through frustration in 15 minutes or less) HERE, The Art of Non-Attachment Workshop HEREGet started on this work with daily practice in a journal, Burn This Book (a great intro to mental and emotional wellness) HEREWork with Crystal 1:1: www.coachcrystal.ca/miracle or in group: www.coachcrystal.ca/creationroomGrab your copy of Crystal's feelings wheel here: www.coachcrystal.ca/wheel

This week, we welcome back Ed Walters, Chief Strategy Officer at vLex, to discuss the latest advancements in legal AI. The conversation covers the evolving role of AI in legal research, the integration of multimodal AI capabilities, and the ethical considerations surrounding the technology. With the rapid pace of innovation in AI-powered tools, Walters provides insights into how vLex is adapting and pushing the boundaries of legal technology. His perspective underscores the importance of structured legal data, security measures, and law firms leveraging their proprietary data for competitive advantage.One of the key topics discussed is the impact of reasoning models in AI-powered legal research. Walters notes how tools such as OpenAI, Gemini, and Anthropic's latest models are transforming legal workflows by enabling more sophisticated research capabilities. These tools allow for more human-like interactions with AI, increasing efficiency in knowledge work by reducing non-billable research time. Walters emphasizes that while these advancements are impressive, legal professionals should always verify AI-generated content, ensuring that human judgment remains the final step in legal analysis.A particularly exciting development discussed in the interview is vLex's recent integration of multimodal AI capabilities, enabling the analysis of audio and video files. Walters explains how this feature allows lawyers to transcribe and analyze depositions, oral arguments, and client intake interviews securely within Vincent AI's SOC 2 Type 2 compliant environment. This breakthrough provides legal professionals with enhanced efficiency in document review and litigation preparation, reinforcing vLex's commitment to transparency and usability. The discussion highlights how these features bridge the gap between traditional and AI-powered legal workflows, streamlining processes while maintaining high-security standards.The conversation also explores vLex's integration of docket alarms into litigation workflows, allowing legal professionals to generate comprehensive profiles of opposing counsel and judges. This tool enables lawyers to analyze patterns in case filings, settlement tendencies, and motion success rates. Walters emphasizes that the ability to synthesize vast amounts of structured litigation data provides firms with a strategic advantage. However, he also acknowledges the ethical implications, stressing the need for transparency in AI-generated insights to maintain the integrity of legal practice.Finally, Walters shares his thoughts on the future of legal AI, predicting a shift toward the integration of law firms' proprietary data with public datasets. He highlights vLex's new initiative, Vincent Studio, which allows firms to create bespoke AI-driven workflows tailored to their specific needs. This, he argues, is the next frontier in legal tech, where law firms transition from passive AI adoption to active AI-driven innovation. As the industry continues to evolve, Walters reinforces the idea that while AI enhances legal practice, human expertise and oversight remain irreplaceable. His insights provide a compelling vision of how legal professionals can leverage AI to augment, rather than replace, their legal expertise.Vincent Studio Request: beta@vlex.comListen on mobile platforms:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Blue Sky: ⁠⁠@geeklawblog.com⁠⁠ ⁠⁠@marlgeb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Transcript

One of the unfortunate truths about our society is that we're more divided, vitriolic and operating from fear than ever before.  When we look at how people interact, there's no civility and mutual respect anymore. There's this huge collective tantrum and so much anger in people and it's completely polarized the culture.  This is especially highlighted in the political sphere. From local government to the national stage, there's more division, more contempt than collaboration, and that was never the original intent.  At its very basic level, government is about creating harmony and equity in society, but that's not happening anymore. How did we get here? How do we find peace in the midst of such vitriolic polarity?  In episode, former mayor of Ojai, California, Betsy Stix joins us to talk about leading in these contempt-filled times, and how she maintained equanimity in inflamed situations.  Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -A powerful impetus  How did The Big Leap lead Betsy Stix into local government? -The source of our separation  The amount of conflict and polarity we're seeing in our world feels unprecedented. How did we get here?  -React, disengage or rise above In these times of high conflict, it's really easy to get hijacked by fear. How do we redirect towards love?  -Back to breath How do we use our breath to create safety for ourselves when there's chaos all around us? Guest Bio Betsy is a lifelong teacher of human development, yoga, English, and French and former mayor of Ojai, California. After teaching for decades, she decided to run for mayor in 2020 during COVID, after reading Gay Hendricks' “The Big Leap” and learning that the city council was slow to enact environmental and social justice policy.  She canvased the town of 7,500 people in a mask and won 64% of the vote!  And she won again in 2022 when she ran against actor Anson Williams. During her tenure, the Ojai City Council passed rent stabilization/tenant protection, a greenhouse gas emission reduction code, approved truly low income housing while developing better solutions for the unhoused, passed animal protection ordinances celebrated by PETA, improved the city's plastic and tree ordinances, flew the Pride Flag for the first time, and founded the Mayor's Youth Council. She is proud to have run two 100% positive campaigns and championed emotional and spiritual intelligence while moving the ball forward for progressive issues.  She was so grateful to have been able to depend upon her yoga practices and experience teaching children and young people as well as the teachings of Katie Hendricks and Marianne Williamson to support her during her time in office.  She looks forward to continuing to serve her community and the planet.

Late last night, the House Budget Committee approved GOP leadership's voluminous one-bill budget plan — a giant step toward fulfilling President Donald Trump's policy agenda, but one that sets them up for collision with the Senate GOP's two-bill approach. But launching it out of committee may have been the easy part. Where do things go from here? POLITICO Capitol bureau chief and “Corridors” columnist Rachael Bade joins Playbook deputy editor Zack Stanton to walk through it all. Plus, the Trump administration axes thousands of government employees, and the Justice Department sees major resignations after ordering prosecutors to drop bribery charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams.

Send us a textToday I'm wrapping up our two-part series on receiving. Inspired by my own journey and the experiences of the moms I work with, I take you through a personal story of navigating the world of financial support for my son, Levi.I share how, after years of advocacy, we finally received the help we needed—only to find myself struggling with an unexpected wave of guilt and disbelief when even more support came our way.

60 million Americans are affected by mental health issues. One in five will experience mental health issues within a given year, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. The good news is: you don't have to stay stuck, sad, lonely, frustrated. You don't have to feel useless or lost. The pain of that will pass - and it may pass quicker than you think. I've known Dr. Joan Rosenberg for 15 years. When I am in a rut, or I feel stagnant or stuck, I talk to her. She is a bestselling author and a captivating public speaker, an all around amazing person who is excellent at what she does. Joan offers an essential tool and 4 step framework I think will be beneficial for your entrepreneurial mental health toolkit. The 90-Second Rule: Bodily sensations associated with difficult feelings are often what we try to avoid. But, we can lean into them, accept that it will pass in 90 seconds or less, and then we experience them more fully and move through them.Express Authentic Emotions. Both Dr. Rosenberg and Gay Hendricks stress that suppressing or "transmuting" emotions, such as masking sadness or disappointment with anger, can be detrimental. Gay shares that one of his clients experienced a huge breakthrough when he was able to acknowledge the source of his anger. It takes strength to ask for help and acknowledge limitations. Success is rarely achieved alone.  Even the military prioritizes assessing needs and limitations and calling for support when necessary. Embrace vulnerability and build the support systems necessary to go the distance! Not only is Joan a brilliant psychologist, she's a bestselling author, and a captivating public speaker. Her experience and expertise make her Mental Health Framework essential for any entrepreneur. Listen to Big Leap with Gay Hendricks and Joan Rosenberg, PhD.
