In this episode, I sit down with Debbie Weiss, best-selling author, speaker, and host of the Maybe I Can podcast, to talk about what it really looks like to rewrite your story after decades of caregiving, loss, and self-sacrifice.Debbie opens up about becoming a caregiver at just 17 years old, navigating her father's stroke, raising a son with multiple diagnoses, supporting a husband through mental and physical illness, and ultimately facing widowhood. For years, she believed her circumstances defined her… until an unexpected trip with friends at age 50 sparked an aha moment that changed everything.In this conversation, Debbie shares how she traded a lifetime of “why me?” thinking for a mindset of ownership, courage, and small, sustainable steps. She walks us through the mindset shift that helped her lose 90 pounds, write two books, appear on The Kelly Clarkson Show, and launch her powerful new life-approach, The Sprinkle Effect™.If you've ever put yourself last, felt stuck in survival mode, or wondered whether it's “too late” to chase a dream… you need this episode. Debbie's message is filled with hope, honesty, humor, and practical wisdom for every woman ready to reclaim her joy.In This Episode We Cover:*How Debbie spent 40 years in caregiving roles and what it cost her*The Bermuda trip that sparked her mindset awakening*What “victim mentality” looked like in real life — and how she recognized it*Why small changes (“sprinkles”) matter more than big leaps*Her 3.5-year journey to losing 90 pounds and what actually worked*What it felt like to speak publicly for the first time*How she ended up writing a memoir and landing on The Kelly Clarkson Show*The importance of saying no and setting boundaries*How The Sprinkle Effect and Workbook help women change their lives one small step at a timeConnect with Debbie Weiss: https://www.debbierweiss.com/Want to be a guest on Life Stories Podcast?

If I only had you for five minutes, what would I want you to know?  That is the very premise behind our QUICK TIPS episodes.  Chrissy's story starts with a familiar tune - the pressure to be the "good girl" in a strict religious household. Sound familiar? Many of us grow up thinking we need to fit into a specific mold to be worthy of love and acceptance. But here's the kicker: I grew up with a specific theology called Calvinist theology, where they teach you that you are bad, you are sinful, you are wicked and evil, and that you can't trust yourself, that the only good thing in you is Jesus. This belief system left Chrissy feeling disconnected from her true self, constantly striving for approval and battling with the fear of being "bad." It's a struggle many of us can relate to, whether we grew up in a religious household or not.

In this episode, Gary breaks down a hard truth many lawyers quietly live with: their happiness rises and falls based on client reactions, case outcomes, and external praise. He shares why this constant emotional roller coaster leaves even high-performing attorneys exhausted, anxious, and feeling like their career is controlling them instead of the other way around. Through stories from his own four decades in litigation, Gary explains how tying your well-being to factors you can't control actually diminishes your clarity, confidence, and long-term fulfillment. Instead, he reveals the three pillars that allow lawyers to build happiness from the inside out.Get the Values Alignment Guide ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://upbeat-trailblazer-9238.kit.com/1604bbf4cb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the Free Lawyer Assessment garymiles.net/the-free-lawyer-assessment Learn more about Breaking Free or order your copy ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.garymiles.net/break-free⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Schedule a complimentary discovery call: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://calendly.com/garymiles-successcoach/one-one-discovery-call⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch this episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqcfaTWo17uxmYS9hfAdiaQ

High-performer exhaustion runs deeper than drive. In this episode, discover how to lead without the mask of performance pressure — and why integrity, not image, is what sustains authentic success.What if the version of you that everyone applauds isn't the version that's actually alive?In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks the hidden weight of performance pressure — that unspoken drive to keep proving, producing, and perfecting long after success is secure. Through the lens of Daniel Ek, founder of Spotify, Julie explores how grounded leadership flows from calm and clarity rather than control and image-management.This conversation reaches beyond burnout recovery or mindset work. It exposes how identity drift, decision fatigue, and spiritual exhaustion intertwine when self-worth becomes tied to perception. You'll learn why the ego isn't evil — just exhausted — and how to reclaim integrity as your new definition of success.Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and faith, Julie reveals how performance pressure is the nervous system's way of protecting belonging — and how to teach your body that peace is safe again.The Recalibration isn't another mindset tactic; it's the root-level, identity-first pathway that makes every other tool effective. Because when identity leads, excellence flows naturally — not from pressure, but from peace.Today's Micro Recalibration: Before your next decision, ask: “Am I protecting an image or expressing integrity?” Choose the path that feels like peace, not pressure — that's the sound of alignment.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Breaking Free from Data Normalization: A Smarter Path for Security TeamsTraditional security models were built on a simple idea: collect data, normalize it, and analyze it. But as Director of Product Marketing Cory Wallace explains in this conversation with Sean Martin, that model no longer fits the reality of modern security operations. Data now lives across systems, clouds, and lakes—making normalization an inefficient, error-prone step that slows teams down and risks critical blind spots.Rethinking How Analysts Work with DataCory describes how schema drift, inconsistent field naming, and vendor-specific query languages have turned the analyst's job into a maze of manual mapping and guesswork. Each product update or schema change introduces a chance to miss something important—something an attacker is counting on. Crogl's new patent eliminates this problem by enabling search and correlation across unnormalized data, creating a unified analytical view without forcing everything into one rigid format.From Data Chaos to Analyst EmpowermentThis shift isn't just technical—it's cultural. Instead of treating SOC analysts as passive alert closers, Crogl's model empowers them with meaningful context from the start. Alerts now come with historical data, cross-referenced fields, and prebuilt queries, giving analysts the information they need to make decisions faster and more confidently.Efficiency with IntelligenceWallace explains how this approach saves time, reduces training burdens, and cuts dependency on multiple query languages. It helps overworked teams move from reactive triage to proactive investigation.

This week's "guest" episode is slightly different...because I'm the guest! My good friends at the Pretty Furious podcast are graciously letting me air an episode when I was a guest on their podcast, because I just loved the questions they asked and don't think I've covered the consequences of overconsumption to this extent on Paring Down. What, exactly, happens to non-biodegradable materials in landfills? Why should you care, even if you don't particularly care about the health of the planet? What role does overconsumption play in our mental health? We dive into all of it!

I share how I healed my relationship with food, with my body, and most importantly, with myself.✨I let you in on:The real cost of living with food obsessionHow shame kept me silent for yearsThe turning point that led to healingWhat “freedom” actually feels like todayIf this speaks to you, please like, comment, subscribe, and share.
