Podcasts about Big News

Stress. We all feel it in some way…big or small. And it's not that stress is actually bad. It's that under-recovered stress is potentially deadly. This week on the IMPACT SHOW, we're talking about something every single one of us deals with — stress. And not just surface-level stress. I'm talking about the kind that builds quietly over time. The kind that high performers carry. The kind that can cost you your health if you're not careful. My guest today is Derek Clark — performance coach, speaker, and founder of the Stress Recovery Game Plan. Derek's story will stop you in your tracks. In his 40s, after years of operating at a high level, he was diagnosed with high blood pressure… which led to open-heart surgery… which was followed by a cancer diagnosis. This isn't theory. This is lived experience. And what he discovered is something we ALL need to hear — stress isn't the enemy. Under-recovered stress is. This episode will challenge you, wake you up, and equip you with tools you can use immediately. In this episode, you'll hear and learn: The difference between strategic, tactical, and responsive stress — and which one is silently draining most high performers. Why "chronic stress" is really under-recovered stress — and how to start correcting it. Derek's powerful 4-step Stress Recovery Game Plan to regain balance daily. Why mindset and sleep are the two most important levers you can pull starting tonight. Practical strategies to improve recovery — from HRV awareness to breathwork to building a better pre-sleep routine. The "Flip the Coin" mindset tool to reframe setbacks and turn adversity into fuel. Some of the questions inside this week's IMPACT SHOW include: You've used the term "stress-oholic." What do you mean by that—and how did you realize you were living that way? Most people think stress is the enemy. You say stress is misunderstood. What do most of us get wrong about stress? How do you personally define stress today, and how is that definition different than the typical "stress is bad" narrative? Can you walk us through what stress is actually doing in the body—physiologically—when someone feels anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in overdrive? At what point did you realize you didn't need more stress management… you needed a recovery strategy? Can you break down the 4 steps of the Stress Recovery Game Plan™ and what each step helps people do? What are some of the 7 recovery tactics inside the Stress Recovery Game Plan, and which ones tend to give people the fastest results early on? If someone is in a season of life where stress feels nonstop—work, family, health—what's the first "small win" you'd recommend to start regaining control? What do you say to high performers who feel like recovery is "lazy," "soft," or something they'll do later when life slows down? Here's the bottom line: you don't need less ambition. You need better recovery. If you're building something big — a business, a career, a family, a legacy — stress will be part of the equation. The key is learning how to balance it so it builds you instead of breaking you. If this episode hits home, share it with someone who needs it. Post it to your story. Text it to your business partner or spouse. And if you're serious about elevating your health and performance this year, take one action from this episode and implement it TODAY. I hope you enjoyed today's episode.  IG: @ToddDurkin @derek.r.clark FB: @ToddDurkinFQ10 #StressRecoveryGamePlan #Ep468 Derek Clark is a stress recovery expert and speaker who helps individuals regain balance, reduce health vulnerabilities, and enhance day-to-day performance. He draws on his own experience navigating two rare health conditions, challenges he attributes in part to the cumulative effects of chronic, unbalanced stress. His story of overcoming adversity led to a complete reevaluation of how we respond to stress and how we recover from it. Derek is a licensed athletic trainer and master sports performance coach with over 25 years of experience working with athletes and high performers. He is the founder of Grizz Athletic Performance and Recovery, a company focused on physical and mental development, injury rehabilitation, and sustainable recovery strategies. He also serves as the Director of Athletic Performance and Wellness at the Greater Pittsburgh Sports Complex, where he applies the same principles of stress recovery, performance enhancement, and holistic well-being with athletes, professionals, and teams. Through his Stress Recovery Game Plan™, a four-step daily framework supported by seven key tactics, Derek empowers individuals to redefine their relationship with stress and build a resilient internal environment—mentally, emotionally, and physically. His approach speaks to the everyday challenges faced by employees and leaders alike, helping them feel, perform, and live better. He believes everyone is an athlete in the game of life—and his mission is to help them recover like one.

The fundamentals had more to do with market response this week than a host of policy issues that could have come into play. Jamie Dickerman of Red River Farm Network and Randy Martinson of Martinson Ag Risk Management share more on the Agweek Market Wrap.

Send us a message!After more than 18 months of silence, The Broken Pack™ podcast is back, and Dr. Angela Dean is sharing everything.In this return episode, Dr. Angela Dean, psychologist, thanatologist, bereaved sibling, and host of The Broken Pack™, opens up about why she went quiet, what grief looked and felt like from the inside, and what is coming next for this community of surviving siblings and sibling loss survivors.Where Dr. Dean Has Been: After nearly five years since losing her brother Tony, something shifted in fall 2024. Despite consistently showing up, recording episodes, building community, and training with Dr. Robert Neimeyer at the Portland Institute for Loss and Transition, she found herself unable to continue at that pace. She reflects on the paradox of avoiding her own grief while pursuing advanced training in grief therapy, and why she needed to step away from narrating loss in order to actually live it.The Personal Losses Behind the Silence: An adult child moving across the globe, shifts in family dynamics, estrangement, and the growing weight of being her parents' only living child, a reality her brother Tony is no longer here to share.What Brought Her Back: A grief retreat through the Portland Institute reconnected her with her purpose. After recording an episode with Karin McLean, Dr. Dean began noticing signs from Tony, wolves, Pittsburgh references, and childhood memories only he would have known.Big News for Surviving Siblings: The Broken Pack is expanding to welcome ALL sibling loss survivors, including those who lost siblings in childhood or before birth. The Wild Grief newsletter moves to Substack, and a sibling loss book club is launching.Upcoming guests: Dr. Christina Zampitella, Nina Rodriguez, Dr. Heidi Horsley, Susan Kellum, Karin McClean, Anne Pinkerton, Earl Dawn Legault, and sibling loss survivor stories from Valerie, Amy, Paige, Amanda, Jayden, Deidra, and many more.Support the showIf you would like more information or to share your own sibling loss story, please contact Dr. Angela Dean at contact@thebrokenpack.com or go to our website, thebrokenpack.com.

When the Mic Turns Around What happens when interviewer becomes interviewee?   In this special role-reversal episode of The Main Thing, longtime friend Chip VanAlsburg steps in as host to turn the microphone on Skip Lineberg. Together, they explore the origin story behind the podcast, the deeper spiritual motivation driving it, and what it really takes to distill knowledge into wisdom that helps people get better at life. Pulling Back the Curtain on The Main Thing From childhood conversations with elders to the "Holy Spirit moment" that birthed the show. And from the unseen, labor-intensive work behind each 25-minute episode… Skip pulls back the curtain, as Chip presents his own brand of insightful, soul-piercing questions. On Light, Leadership, and the Long Game The duo also dives into: Why growth isn't for everyone (and why that's okay) What it means to live effulgently—radiating light and love Reframing "empty nest" into "spacious nest" The butterfly effect of sharing wisdom And how knowledge becomes wisdom only when it's lived and shared Last but not least, Chip shares his own emerging vision—an honest, heartfelt look at trauma, healing, storytelling, and what he calls "big medicine." If you've ever wondered why this podcast exists—or what wisdom is really for—this conversation will meet you right where you are. Press play. Reflect deeply. Share generously. A Bit More About Our Wise Guest-Host Chip VanAlsburg is a big thinker with a restless mind and a wide-open heart. He challenges assumptions, pushes boundaries, and rarely accepts "no" as the final answer—especially when curiosity or conviction is involved. Bold and unafraid, Chip has spent more than two decades leading in the media, technology, and telecommunications worlds, holding roles such as General Manager, Vice President, and most recently Director at Lumen Technologies in Pittsburgh. But titles only tell part of the story. Chip is a glutton for experiences, with a voracious appetite for life and learning. He's an avid user of emojis, deeply fond of laughter, and unashamed of tears when the moment calls for them. His ego is squarely in check, even as his irises stay cranked wide open in a lifelong quest for peace, perspective, and enlightenment. What makes Chip compelling isn't just what he's accomplished—it's how he shows up: courageous, curious, emotionally honest, and fully engaged with the world around him. He brings that same energy and depth to conversation, making him the kind of guest who doesn't just share insights—he invites reflection. Now, buckle up and get ready to join the duo in exploring the concept of living a good life by pursuing purpose with humility, resilience and faith.

Location check: Beth is currently recording from a frozen fortress, channeling her inner Elsa. Vanessa is in Germany with exactly one hour of free time before she has to do a literal mic drop and bolt out of the studio. You know the vibes. We've got news. Like, actual big news that involves the very top of the Walt Disney Company and a certain parks guy moving into the big corner office. We have thoughts. Optimistic thoughts, even. Also, Disneyland Paris just won something shiny. Like, an actual industry award for one of their nighttime offerings. We're choosing to take this as validation of everything we've ever said. There are parade updates with some surprise character appearances that made us both gasp and a new flower shop that has no flowers for sale. Riddle us that ! Oh, and annual pass prices went up. Like, significantly up. We're talking about what changed, who's affected, and why the Disney internet is currently on fire about it. Vanessa just survived a week at Disneyland Paris with her husband and their tiny terror—sorry, very energetic toddler—Lizzie. And by "survived," we mean she's here to tell us: How Lizzie became the unofficial announcer at the train station, loudly informing everyone that they needed to vacate immediately so SHE could board. The passengers listened. The child has power. Why their hotel room featured housekeeping leaving behind some...smelly items that definitely did NOT belong in a hotel room, and a bathtub crack so severe it looked like it was themed for Phantom Manor rather than Newport Bay Club. How getting your toddler to eat a hotel breakfast BEFORE taking them to a park breakfast is the key to character meal success. And the exact second she understood that taking a toddler to Disney is less "magical family holiday" and more "hostage situation with Mickey waffles." Just kidding. She had a great time and is full of tips to make your own DLP trip with a tot picture-perfect ! Plus, we've got a special moment at the end celebrating a brand new baby girl who just joined the D2DLP family. Beth gets emotional. It's very sweet. We're saving your listener mail for a special March episode because something (or someone?) very exciting is coming in February…Plus, our friends( and sponsors!) at EasyGo Shuttle are still offering a discount code for our listeners—5D2DLP5—so you can start your 2026 trips stress-free.
