I spent nearly 15 years in bodybuilding, competed almost 20 times, became an IFBB Pro, and coached other women through contest prep. So why did I eventually walk away? In this episode, I'm getting brutally honest about the side of women's bodybuilding that nobody really talks about - steroids and performance-enhancing drugs, post-show rebound, body image, genetics, the insane cost of competing, judging, coaching, posing, and what happens when bodybuilding becomes your entire identity. I'm sharing what I wish someone had told me before I stepped on that first stage, including the reality of contest prep, what happens to your body after a show, and why "just stick to the plan" isn't always enough. And this is only Part 1. Next week, we're getting into perimenopause, your cycle, fat burners, GLP-1s, and how bodybuilding can affect your relationships. #Bodybuilding #WomensBodybuilding #BodybuildingWomen   Key Takeaways: 00:13 Why I Stayed for So Long 01:45 What Happened After My First Show 03:39 How Bodybuilding Became My Identity 06:07 Becoming the Go-To Bodybuilding Girl 10:15 When I Started Seeing the Cracks 12:14 My Biggest Backstage Wake-Up Call 14:48 The Reality of Post-Show Rebound 17:46 The Biggest Post-Show Danger Zones 20:06 Why You Never Really Come Out Ahead 22:00 How Much Does Bodybuilding Actually Cost? 24:43 The Real Cost of Competing 26:22 Can You Actually Make Money Competing? 28:11 The Ego Trap of Bodybuilding 28:45 You're the Product, Not the Customer 29:47 Why the Goalpost Keeps Moving 33:06 Where's the Protection for Athletes? 34:45 Red Flags to Watch for in a Coach 36:54 The Reality of Life After a Show 39:55 Why Posing Can Make or Break You 43:09 Steroids, Drugs & The Genetics Factor 47:54 The Health Risks You Can't Undo 48:47 I Literally Passed Out Trying to Win 50:58 What's Coming in Part 2 + Share This Episode   Links mentioned: Listen to last week's episode here: https://bossbitchradio.libsyn.com/is-bodybuilding-actually-healthy-a-pros-honest-answer Want more?

 We loved talking with Ryan Dart about his new album “Love Don't Break you” AVAILABLEEVERYWHERE! We even got to see the vinyl before it was released, and yes, we totally geeked out over it!   We chatted about his start as a music engineer and how he became a fulltime musician, how he uses music to process all of the things in his life, and his greatest addiction—songwriting!  Ryan Dart is a Colorado-based Americana songwriter, farmer, and father whose new album, If Love Don't Break You,released May 1, 2026. Rooted in love, loss, and hard-earned wisdom, Dart's music reflects a life shaped by the land and the road, drawing influence from Dylan, Cash, Townes Van Zandt, Tom Waits, and classic rhythm and blues. Raised below the poverty line in western Arkansas, he brings lived experience and emotional honesty to every song. Featuring an all-star cast including Richard Bowden, Nate Barnes, and members of Elephant Revival, If Love Don't Break You is Dart's most personal and fully realized work to date.    Be sure to check Ryan out here:  FB: Ryan Dart  IG: Ryandartmusic  YouTube: dartryandart  Website: Ryandartmusic.com

If you’ve ever jolted awake at 3:11am spiralling over something you said in 2019 — you are not alone. This Quick Reset is for the mums lying in bed, exhausted but wired, wondering if their brain is broken. (Spoiler: it’s not.) In this raw and validating episode, Jane unpacks the real reasons so many neurodivergent women are waking up in the middle of the night. It’s not just anxiety. It’s hormones, cortisol spikes, perimenopause, trauma, overstimulation — and nervous systems that have been stuck in survival mode for years. This episode gives you permission to stop blaming yourself for ‘bad sleep’ and start exploring what your body might actually be trying to say. ✨ IN THIS RESET:• Why you might wake up at the exact same time every night• What progesterone and GABA have to do with your 3am brain spiral• Cortisol spikes, perimenopause, and stress-pattern sleep• Why lying in bed makes it worse — and what to do instead• The ‘entree thought’ that leads to a full-blown shame tornado• Real stories, lived experience, and no-pressure ideas to try• What actually helped Jane stop dreading the night

If you’ve ever stood frozen in the kitchen, fully aware of what needs doing — and still couldn’t start — this episode is for you. This week’s Quick Reset tears apart the toxic myth that ADHD mums just need to “try harder.” Jane unpacks what’s actually happening when your brain stalls, and why shame, not laziness, is often the real culprit. From inner critics echoing old failures to the neuroscience behind executive dysfunction, this is a raw, validating, and darkly funny call to stop blaming effort — and start working with your brain instead. You’ll learn practical, low-pressure strategies to get started (no, not with a new app), and finally understand why “just do it” advice doesn’t just fail ADHD mums — it hurts us. ✨ IN THIS RESET: The damaging myth of laziness and willpower How shame shuts down executive function Why ADHD is not about motivation — it’s about regulation What to say to yourself instead of “I just need to focus” Brain-based strategies for task initiation that actually help Real talk about fridge purchases, hyperfocus, and starting vs finishing Why “trying harder” never fixed burnout — and never will

If someone tells you to take a bubble bath one more time, you might scream. This Quick Reset is a no-filter, nervous-system-level rant for every ADHD mum who’s been told that a massage will fix her burnout. Jane unpacks why the whole self-care industry is fundamentally mismatched to neurodivergent mums — and how pretending we feel better after one ‘treat’ just leads to more shame, not recovery. From sensory overload and executive dysfunction to the rage of being handed a “Mother’s Day spa voucher” after 364 days of unpaid emotional labour, this episode calls out the delusion of performance rest — and offers honest alternatives that might actually increase your capacity to survive. ✨ IN THIS RESET: Why typical self-care advice feels like a slap in the face How ADHD brains struggle to “relax on command” The truth behind fake rest, survival mode, and executive dysfunction What to do when even the bath feels too hard How to find five-minute moments that actually help (without a full routine) A very real story about walking 50 metres to put the bins out — slowly

Your Romantic Relationships Will make You or Break You... Choose Wisely

If you're a neurodivergent parent staring down the impossible decision of where to send your child to school — this episode is for you. Forget the glossy brochures and test score spreadsheets. In this raw, strategic conversation, Jane and Millie Carr walk you through the real questions to ask, the red flags to watch for, and how to trust your gut when it comes to choosing a school that won't retraumatise your kid — or you. We unpack the hidden barriers ADHD and autistic families face during school enrolment, what buzzwords to interrogate (hello “inclusive” and “resilient”), and how to decode a school’s culture beneath the surface. Because being told “we’ve got neurodivergent kids here too” isn’t the same as knowing how to support them. You’ll walk away with scripts, insight, and the confidence to stop people-pleasing your way into another educational crisis. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: Why “inclusive” doesn’t always mean safe The buzzwords that signal masking, not belonging Questions to ask on a school tour that don’t flag your child as “the hard one What to look for beyond classrooms: playgrounds, posters, and teacher training The role of trauma-informed, neuroaffirming values in everyday school lif When to walk away (even if it’s inconvenient) How to weigh up private vs public when the real issue is leadership Real-life stories of switching schools — and what finally worked

If your child holds it together at school but falls apart at home — this episode is for you. In this raw and deeply validating conversation, Jane is joined again by educator Millie Carr to unpack what happens when school is no longer emotionally or psychologically safe for neurodivergent kids. From missed warning signs to outright shutdown, we explore how subtle distress gets overlooked — and how easily parents are made to feel like they’re overreacting. You’ll learn what to watch for, what to say to schools without getting dismissed, and how to hold your ground when your gut says something’s not right. Whether your child is masking, refusing, or silently burning out, this episode gives you tools to recognise what’s happening — and advocate without losing yourself in the process.

Community banks can't afford to wait.In this Travillian Next episode, Keith Daly, Principal, Banking & Fintech Search, sits down with Allan Rayson, Founder of Finov8r and former Encore Bank CTO, to talk about what's actually holding banks back from adopting AI.Allan brings a clear, on-the-ground perspective of what's happening inside bank C-suites right now and what's missing. From core tech limitations to cultural resistance, this episode lays out the real stuff that determines whether a bank is just surviving or truly evolving.(00:00) Intro – Less Than 100 Banks Are Truly Engaged with AI(00:36) Meet Allan Rayson – Career Background + Finov8r Origin(01:58) Consulting Focus – Why Banks Are Calling Him Now(03:34) What Banks Are Asking: Use Cases + Monetizing Tech(06:06) The Elephant in the Room: AI's Impact on Employment(09:06) Why Mass Layoffs in Banking Are Unlikely(10:30) How AI Will Reshape Bank Organizational Structure(13:03) AI Call Center Use Case: Credit Unions vs. Banks(15:08) Where Banks Are Starting with AI – Jog, Not Sprint(17:19) Use Case Deep Dive – SBA Policy Interpretation(19:20) Inside vs. Outside the Bank: AI Vendor Strategy(21:02) Will Banks Hire Chief AI Officers?(22:05) Why Community Bank C-Suites Need Modernizing(23:22) Tech Mentality vs. Traditional Banking – Product Mindset(24:45) Building Tech Muscle Memory in Banks(26:05) AI Today Is Like the Internet in 1995(27:09) Treasury Onboarding: Another AI Agent Opportunity(28:34) What Makes a Bank Future-Proof (and What Doesn't)(30:15) Final Thoughts – Core Systems Will Make or Break You(32:02) Call to Action – Start Somewhere

If the words ‘let me know if you need anything’ make you panic instead of feel supported — this one’s for you. This Quick Reset is a nervous system-level sigh of relief for the mums who feel safest surviving in silence. If you’ve ever shut down instead of speaking up, snapped when someone finally offered to help, or felt like asking for support meant erasing your worth — this episode will hit home. Hard. We unpack the trauma behind “I’ve got it,” the invisible legacy of pathological self-reliance, and how masking your needs became part of your personality. But it’s not who you are — it’s what you learned. It’s time to stop waiting until burnout to be visible. This episode offers small scripts, mindset shifts, and reframes that make asking for help feel less like failure — and more like a form of love. ✨ IN THIS RESET: Why asking for help feels like failure (especially for high-functioning women) How ‘good girl conditioning’ trained you to suppress needs Why no one notices you're struggling — and why that’s not your fault The trauma loop of independence, silence, and resentment Scripts to ask for support without shame When your meltdown isn’t about dinner — it’s about years of invisible labour Rewiring your worth away from being useful Real-life strategies to pre-negotiate support (before the spiral) Giving yourself the grace to stop performing strength

If your afternoons feel like a slow-motion train wreck — tears, yelling, slammed doors, and you hiding in the pantry with a chocolate bar — this episode is for you. This Quick Reset speaks directly to the ADHD mums stuck in the brutal 3–6PM rebound window (or 3–9PM if your house is really on fire). When the stimulant meds wear off, the chaos ramps up — and suddenly the smallest request can launch a meltdown. Whether your child is screaming in the backseat or your teenager is giving you the silent treatment, this episode validates the unspoken truth: it’s not you, it’s the neurochemical whiplash. Jane breaks down the reality of post-school dysregulation, explains why your child falls apart as soon as they get home, and shares real-life survival tools (not Pinterest-perfect routines) that actually help. ✨ IN THIS RESET, WE COVER: What’s really happening when ADHD meds wear off (spoiler: it’s not “bad behaviour”) Why the smallest requests trigger epic meltdowns The connection between sensory build-up, emotional suppression, and after-school explosions Why your child’s brain crashes when yours does too The invisible rebound window: how to recognise it and adapt School masking and why ‘safe’ doesn’t always look calm The only two things that changed Jane’s afternoons (music + snacks, no eye contact) Low-demand parenting that actually protects connection Why the “put your lunchbox on the bench” battle isn’t worth it — and what to do instead

If you’ve spent hours calling pharmacies, chasing down scripts, or fighting tears in front of your child’s school — this episode is for you. This week’s Quick Reset is a brutally honest look at the ADHD medication shortage and what it’s actually costing families. It’s not just about pills. It’s about access, function, and survival. If you’ve been told to 'just hang in there' while rationing doses, burning out, and trying to stay regulated — this episode will meet you where you are. We unpack why the shortage isn’t just a supply chain hiccup — but a structural failure — and what you can do right now. You’ll hear the real-life chaos behind one bottle of meds, the truth about demand vs infrastructure, and the emotional cost of parenting without the support you fought hard to access.

In this podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Dr. Steve Katsouros of Come to Believe Foundation and Network, which works with colleges and universities to replicate a successful DEI, enrollment, and graduation model. Dr. Katsouros was the founder of Arrupe College, a two-year institution that is part of Loyola University Chicago. Arrupe has an amazing track record for completion and having students graduate with little or no debt. Fifty percent (50%) of students complete their degree in two years/ nearly 70% in three years, and 90% of graduates incur no debt. More promising, more than 70% of students complete their Bachelor's degrees in five years or less. Compare this to the national average, where 13% of students in two-year colleges complete their Associate's degree in two years, and 13% of students who start at two-year colleges complete their Bachelor's degrees in six years. Steve discusses Arrupe's credit-bearing remedial classes, the rigorous application process, the Fellows Program that connects freshmen with sophomores in and outside of class, the roles of its graduate support coordinator, financial aid officer, and employer relations officer that help students succeed, and more. Arrupe's model can be applied to any 2- or 4-year institution. Podcast Highlights 50% of students at Arrupe College complete their degree in two years, 90% incur no debt and more than 70% complete their Bachelor's degrees in five years or less. Arrupe's model attracts first-generation, Pell-eligible, and undocumented students and helps them flourish in a post-secondary ed environment and beyond. Upon launching the model at Arrupe, over 50% of its donors had never given to its larger university, Loyola University Chicago, before. Most of these donors consisted of the many relationships that Arrupe made with local businesses through its model. One donor gave $100 million to Loyola University Chicago for all Pell and first-generation students from low-wealth backgrounds. For higher ed institutions that want to adopt Arrupe's model, Come to Believe helps university leaders perform a feasibility study to make sure they have bandwidth and consensus for the program and helps them prepare for presenting their proposals to their boards. The application season for the next cohort is open until the end of March. → View the podcast transcript More About Our Podcast Guest A member of the United States East Province of the Society of Jesus, Steve Katsouros, S.J., is the president and CEO of the Come to Believe Foundation and Network in New York City. Before Come to Believe, Fr. Katsouros served as the founding dean and executive director of Arrupe College at Loyola University Chicago. Arrupe is a two-year college that continues the Jesuit tradition of offering a rigorous liberal arts education to a diverse population, many of whom are the first in their family to pursue higher education. Fr. Katsouros served as Arrupe's academic and administrative leader from 2014 until 2020. In Paul Tough's study of higher education, The Most Important Years: How College Can Make or Break You (2019), the author observed Arrupe College "may be doing a more impressive job of keeping its students enrolled and on track for success than any other institution I visited." Prior to his assignment at Arrupe, Fr. Katsouros served as the director of the Institute for Catholic Educational Leadership (ICEL) and associate dean of the School of Education at the University of San Francisco. From 2002-2011, Fr. Katsouros was president of Loyola, a coed Jesuit high school on Manhattan's Upper East Side; during his years at Loyola, the endowment and annual giving tripled, capital gifts were raised to refurbish the physical plant, and faculty and staff salaries increased to market competitiveness. The success of Arrupe College and its students inspired Fr. Katsouros to lead Come to Believe, a network, and foundation created to replicate and scale the Arrupe model nationally. Based in Manhattan, with teams working in Chicago and New York, Come to Believe provides advisory services to universities with the capacity to launch and sustain successful two-year colleges for high-potential students from low-wealth backgrounds. Come to Believe guides university leaders through the process of implementation and launch of new colleges and provides research-based best practices and problem-solving techniques. Fr. Katsouros earned his doctorate from Columbia University Teachers College in organizational leadership; his research interests are leadership, governance, and institutional performance. He was ordained in 1998.

In her late 50's, Barbara Pagano and her daughter Elizabeth set out for a six-month sailing adventure on a 42-foot sailboat. Even though neither woman was an experienced sailor, they sailed alone for more than 2,000 miles. Two weeks prior to their departure, Barbara failed navigation school. Fortunately, Elizabeth earned her certification from a one-week sailing school. Pushing a little boat through water was hard work, especially for two inexperienced sailors. Barbara learned how by just doing it.  Eight years later, that ‘learn-by-doing' approach yielded significant returns as Barbara faced the challenge of creating a post-retirement life. The transition should not have been so difficult, but it was hard for her. Her experience and motivation to help others inspired the launch of your extraordinary life in retirement.com. She gives post-50 individuals the tools and strategies to design and live fulfilling lives in the last third of life. With graduate degrees in counseling and human behavior as her base, Barbara curates research on aging, retirement, productive longevity, well-being, and happiness to produce content with groundbreaking clarity and a refreshing experienced voice.  Her most recent book, The 60 Something Crisis: How to Live an Extraordinary Life in Retirement, was released in July 2022. As an executive coach and seasoned speaker, Barbara has motivated thousands of senior leaders and middle managers to higher levels of performance in work and life. Her previous book, The Transparency Edge, How Credibility Can Make or Break You in Business, written with her daughter Elizabeth, a business journalist, was chosen by Fast Company Magazine as a book of the month.  In this week's Work From The Inside Out podcast, learn more about Barbara's journey: Barbara's work has been featured in Fast Company, Investor's Business Daily, Healthy Aging, The New York Times, and American Executive. She is a speaker, past president of the Georgia Speakers Association, and previously named one of the top three speakers in Atlanta.
