What if thriving wasn't about having more, but about choosing differently? Rand Selig has spent a lifetime studying growth, leadership, relationships, and what it truly means to live well. With decades of global experience in business, service, and personal development, Rand believes thriving is not accidental. It's the result of intentional choices made over time. This episode explores how self-reflection, forgiveness, resilience, and personal responsibility shape the quality of our lives. Through thoughtful dialogue, Rand Selig and Chuck Thuss unpack why thriving starts with the relationship you have with yourself, how setbacks can become turning points, and what it takes to stop living on autopilot and start authoring your own story. Guest Bio Rand Selig holds an MBA from Stanford and dual undergraduate degrees in mathematics and psychology. For over 35 years, he has led his own financial services firm while living and working across Europe, Asia, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Deeply committed to personal growth, service, and environmental conservation, Rand created Thriving! to help others embrace meaningful, positive change. He lives in Mill Valley, California, with his wife of over four decades and remains actively involved in mentorship, community leadership, and global service.   You'll hear About What it really means to "thrive" in today's world Why the most important relationship you'll ever have is with yourself How forgiveness and letting go free emotional energy Reframing setbacks as opportunities for growth Becoming the author of your own life story   Chapters 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 02:40 Rand's Background and Global Life Experience 05:20 Defining Thriving and Its Four Core Pillars 08:10 Why Personal Thriving Comes First 11:30 Self-Sabotage, Forgiveness, and Letting Go 15:00 The Power of Personal Choice 18:20 Navigating Setbacks and Building Resilience 22:30 Pain vs. Suffering and Reclaiming Agency 26:00 Becoming the Author of Your Own Story 30:20 Words, Self-Talk, and Emotional Health 34:00 Small Steps Toward Lasting Change 38:00 Rand's Message to Anyone Feeling Stuck 41:30 Where to Find Thriving! and Additional Resources 44:30 Chuck's Closing Reflections Chuck's Challenge This week, identify one area of your life where you've been reacting instead of choosing.

What does it take to build a global design firm from scratch and then walk away from it at the top of your game? Mia Feasey did exactly that. She launched her international design business at just 24 years old, scaled it across borders, and made the bold decision to exit at 45, not because she had to, but because she chose to. In this episode, Christina's special guest Mia gets refreshingly real about what it actually took: the risks she took before she felt ready, the moments she almost played it safe, and why authenticity became her most powerful business strategy. If you've ever wondered what's waiting for you on the other side of a big leap, or if you're quietly dreaming of your own next chapter, this conversation will light a fire under you. About Mia Mia Feasey is the founder of Siren Design Group, a global design consultancy she built from a single Sydney studio into an international powerhouse with clients like Amazon, Google, Chanel, and Balenciaga. Guided by a people-first philosophy and a refusal to fear failure, she grew the firm over 20 years before making the bold decision to hand over the reins and walk away. Now based in Queenstown, New Zealand, Mia is channeling the same creativity and courage that built her business into redesigning her life — slowing down, reconnecting with her family, and figuring out what truly makes her heart sing.

What really goes through a referee's mind on game day?In this episode, we hit a lift while diving deep into the world of officiating — from getting screamed at by parents in the stands to making split-second calls under pressure. Our guest breaks down how he went from random viral content to building a platform that shows what refs actually experience on the field.We talk about the referee shortage, the mental side of making calls in real time, why everyone thinks they're an expert from the bleachers, and how stepping into uncomfortable situations builds confidence far beyond sports.It's part gym session, part life philosophy, and part behind-the-scenes look at a role nobody understands… but everyone has an opinion on.If you've ever yelled at a ref — this one's for you.-----00:00 - First Gym Experience and Dancing Concerns00:59 - Using the Ladder App for Workout Planning01:40 - Hyrox Competition Formats02:31 - Emerging Fitness Trend Compared to CrossFit03:19 - Challenges of CrossFit Variability03:52 - Workout App Features and Group Motivation04:35 - Founding Gyms and Personal Training History05:55 - Gym Locations and Facility Changes06:44 - Gym Membership Transitions07:05 - Personal Background and Workout Focus07:48 - Arm and Leg Focused Workouts09:14 - Goals, Diet, and 75 Hard Challenge10:07 - 75 Hard Modifications: Workout Planning & Equipment Safety15:02 - Personal Fitness Journey and Social Stories20:24 - Basketball and Dunking Attempts22:18 - Home Gym Setup: Warm-up, Design, and Renovation Plans25:33 - Workout Routine and Strength Challenges27:28 - Starting Content Creation Journey29:11 - Refereeing Basics and Rules32:38 - Advanced Referee Insights: Embracing Uncertainty and Fulfillment36:28 - Referee Compensation and Counting Sets37:31 - Challenges at the Youth Level: Parents and Coaches38:42 - Decision-Making, Judgment Calls, and Business Parallels40:44 - Opinions, Pleasing Everyone, and Public Arguments41:53 - Theory vs Practice: Limits of Reading Alone43:57 - Workout Routines and Set Counting45:30 - Launching a Podcast: Content Creation, Talent Recognition, and Social Media Insights48:44 - Personal Finances, Relationships, and Identity50:31 - Overcoming Fear and Building a Vision53:32 - Faith, Family, Purpose & Emotional Intelligence: A Life Philosophy58:35 - Life Perspective, Age, and Gratitude60:25 - Defining Happiness and Embracing Challenges62:39 - Ambitions, Private Jet Dream, and Meaningful Friendships64:22 - Authenticity, Social Media, and Helping Others65:46 - Personal Relationships and Life Journey67:03 - Creating Viral Content: My First Viral Moment and Refereeing Challenges69:44 - Wife's Filming Role and Managing Angles72:47 - Editing Challenges and Learning the Craft75:30 - Exploring Side Gigs and Business Opportunities78:06 - My Editing Journey: From Early Experiences to iPad Marketing79:51 - Career Background and Early Metrics80:38 - Gym Talk: Steroids and Reverse Curls83:40 - Push‑up Workout Session84:53 - Podcast Growth and Audience Impact87:08 - Taco Review Podcast – Part 189:03 - Taco Review Podcast – Part 290:41 - Podcast Overview: Concept, Creation Challenges, and Nutrition Advice93:10 - Hiring Editors and Client Expectations95:23 - Audience Targeting and Business Improvement97:37 - Growth Mindset and Right vs Wrong99:58 - Decision Making and Trust Building101:25 - Embracing Failure and Building Resilience in Business104:39 - Vision, Scaling, and Purpose Beyond Self106:13 - Values, Team Dynamics, and Performance Culture109:30 - Personal Motivation: Finding Your Why Through Family and Legacy115:00 - Relationship with Madison and College Hustle116:56 - Be the Differenc

Scott Martin's transformation from elite athlete to disability advocate demonstrates that identity is not determined by circumstance but by choice. After losing both hands and parts of his feet to necrotizing fasciitis in 1993, Scott faced a pivotal moment in his garage where he rejected the suicide narrative society had constructed for him. Instead of accepting victimhood, he consciously reclaimed agency and rebuilt his life around a singular philosophy: positioning people to learn and succeed rather than simply instructing them. Scott's advocacy exposes critical failures in how institutions engage with disability. He identifies disabled individuals as inherent problem-solvers whose daily navigation of obstacles makes them exceptionally valuable employees and contributors. His core insight is radical in its simplicity: education and openness reduce stigma, and visibility transforms perception. By refusing to hide his disability and speaking honestly about his experience, Scott normalizes difference and demonstrates that capability transcends physical form, challenging every assumption society makes about limitation. Scott Martin's Play from Your Heart is now available for presale, with his goal to reach bestseller status and amplify this message of resilience and inclusion. The book serves as both memoir and manifesto, designed to provoke thought and inspire action across sports, business, and social spheres. Support his mission by purchasing through Library Tales Publishing, Amazon, Thriftbooks or major retailers including Barnes & Noble and Simon & Schuster. Scott's work reminds us that true leadership means creating conditions for others to discover their own strength, that disability is not a tragedy but a different way of navigating the world, and that our collective humanity depends on building systems and cultures that value every person's contribution.

Welcome to the Personal Development Trailblazers Podcast! In today's episode, we're talking about how to find courage in the complicated process of building resilience.As a high school dropout who earned a PhD about belly dancing, Caitlin has always embraced the unique and unconventional. Her journey has danced across the divide of academia and the tech industry, where she has experience with innovation, digital ethics, and the creative industries. Her prior experience as a technology industry strategist working with senior leaders and leadership teams at some of the world's most recognisable businesses, governments of several nations, and intergovernmental organisations means that she understands the pressures high-performing leaders and teams are facing today. As an ICF certified coach and Mental Health First Aider, she empowers high-performing individuals and teams to navigate complexity with courage and resilience, drawing on her experiences as a cancer survivor to help people find "courage in the complicated." Because the world is a little complicated right now, and everyone could use a top-up of our resilience reserves; nourishment for our courage. This empowers us to find strength within ourselves and with the community to approach every challenge with fortitude and joy. Connect with Caitlin Here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/caitlinmcdonald/https://bsky.app/profile/cmcd-phd.caitlinmcdonald.comhttps://caitlinmcdonald.comGrab the freebie here: https://buttondown.com/caitlin_coaching===================================If you enjoyed this episode, remember to hit the like button and subscribe.

In this episode, Alfredo Borodowski discusses the critical mistakes leaders make when attempting to future-proof their workforce, particularly the risk of employee burnout. He emphasizes the importance of understanding character strengths and fostering resilience within teams. Listeners will learn practical strategies to create a culture of nourishment rather than fixing, ultimately enhancing employee engagement and performance. Listener Takeaways Leaders should focus on providing orientation rather than trying to predict change. Understanding character strengths is essential for minimizing disorientation in teams. Resilience is about learning from setbacks and coming back stronger, not just returning to the previous state. Companies should shift from a culture of fixing to one of nourishing employee potential. Psychological capital, including self-confidence, hope, optimism, and resilience, is crucial for future success.

Those early experiences inspired her life's work supporting paediatric patients and families navigating illness, trauma, and profound change.We discuss why resilience is not toughness, positivity, or spiritual bypassing.

In this solo kickoff to 2026, Christina reflects on the creative resistance she's been feeling and how even positive routines, like her nearly six-year streak of daily walks, can start to create stagnation. A podcast reminded her that growth often requires breaking our own patterns. That insight collided with a pop-culture moment (yes, the Brooklyn Beckham drama) to spark a bigger conversation about how social media pressures us to perform, exaggerate, and air conflict publicly. Her takeaway: real alignment comes from personal responsibility, knowing what you stand for, and not feeling obligated to fight every battle for the sake of optics. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating  and leave us a comment on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser and Castbox about what you'd like us to talk about that will help you realize that at any moment, any day, you too can decide, it's your turn! 

Some families are living on an emotional rollercoaster. One minute everyone seems fine. The next, it feels like the wheels are coming off. In this episode of Complicated Kids, I sit down with Dr. Kate Lund, a licensed clinical psychologist, resilience expert, and twin mom, to talk about resilience as a way of living rather than a trait you either have or do not have. Instead of seeing resilience as "you hit a challenge and bounce back," we explore what it looks like to build a steadier baseline so you can ride the waves of real life with a little more ease. Dr. Kate shares how she helps parents understand their own context first. That includes their nervous system, history, strengths, and the particular stressors they are carrying. From there, we talk about practical tools for modulating your stress response, including a simple daily relaxation practice that helps you learn what "regulated" actually feels like in your body so you can return to it more often. We also talk about timing. Kids of all ages need space to feel their feelings before they can look for possibilities or "what's next." We walk through real-life examples, including college rejections, tough games, and everyday disappointments, and how to sit with your child's emotions without rushing to fix them. A big part of this conversation focuses on perfectionism and comparison. Dr. Kate and I discuss why there is no resilience formula, why siblings in the same family can need completely different things, and how to move away from "perfect outcome" thinking and toward doing what is optimized within your own context. If you've ever wondered how to be a grounded leader in your family while still being a real human with your own feelings and limits, this episode will give you language, tools, and a more compassionate way to think about resilience for both you and your kids. Key Takeaways Resilience is a lifestyle, not a moment. Regulation becomes more accessible when tools are woven into daily life instead of saved for crises. Your nervous system sets the tone. When you are already stressed, even small challenges can overwhelm the whole family. A simple daily practice matters. A five-minute breathing practice paired with a calming word can teach your body what calm feels like. Self-awareness comes before strategy. Resilient parenting starts with being honest about your own strengths, limits, and stress patterns. Every child has their own context. Siblings can need completely different support based on their nervous systems. Validation comes before possibility. Kids need their feelings acknowledged before they can move forward. Sharing struggles builds connection. Age-appropriate honesty shows kids that resilience includes falling down and getting back up. Perfectionism blocks resilience. Growth happens when you work within your real life, not an imaginary ideal. There is no one-size-fits-all formula. Resilient families stay curious and adjust over time. Possibility lives on the other side of hard things. Holding a long view allows hope without minimizing today's challenges. About Dr. Kate Lund Dr. Kate Lund is a licensed clinical psychologist, resilience expert, author, and host of The Optimized Mind podcast. With specialized training from three Harvard Medical School–affiliated hospitals and more than two decades of clinical practice, she helps parents, athletes, students, and entrepreneurs thrive within their unique contexts.

Welcome to Part 4 of our 5-part mini-series, "The Ascent."It is easy to find peace when the ground is flat and the sun is shining, but life isn't always a meadow—sometimes it is a mountain. In today's session, we leave the comfort of the Open Field to face the incline, not to conquer the mountain, but to discover the strength that has been hiding in your heart all along.This guided meditation is designed to help you build resilience and navigate the "boulders" in your path—whether they are worries, fears, or difficult people. We will practice "Altitude Breathing" to oxygenate your courage and visualize a climb that shifts your perspective from the problem to the progress you have made.In this episode, we will cover:Altitude Breathing: A breathwork technique to calm panic when the path gets steep.The Boulder Visualization: Learning to navigate around obstacles rather than fighting them.The Plateau: Recognizing how far you have come.Peak Affirmations: Use these affirmations when you feel the weight of the climb:"I am stronger than the obstacles in my way." "I take life one step at a time." "I trust my ability to figure things out." "I do not fear the climb; I embrace the growth." "I am rising." Martin's 3 Caring Tips for a Happier Life: Inspired by the climber's mindset, here is how to bring this resilience into your daily routine:Lighten Your Pack: A climber never carries what they don't need. Identify one "mental weight" you are carrying—a grudge, a worry about next week, or guilt from yesterday. Visualize taking it out of your backpack and leaving it on the side of the trail.The "Look Back" Rule: We are often so focused on the summit that we forget to appreciate the altitude we've already gained. If you feel stuck, stop and write down three things you have achieved in the last year.Choose Your Route: If you hit a roadblock, don't bang your head against it. Be like water and go around. Ask yourself, "What is the other way to solve this?" There is always another path up the mountain.Ready to go deeper?

SHOW NOTES: On this show… we're talking about building resilience when life feels hard, not as a mindset shift or a motivational push, but as the quiet practice of continuing on when you don't feel especially strong or inspired. Have you ever found yourself in a season where everything feels heavier than it should? Not necessarily falling apart… just harder than normal. Where getting through the day takes more energy than it used to, and the future feels a little harder to picture clearly? A while back, my father-in-law shared an image that's stayed with me. He said getting through a tough situation is a lot like driving at night. You can't see the whole road. You can only see as far as your headlights reach. And sometimes that's frustrating. Sometimes it's tiring. Sometimes it's enough to make you wonder how much farther you really want to go. On long drives like that, you don't just push endlessly. You stop. You stretch your legs. You grab a snack. Maybe some hot coffee. You check in with yourself and decide how many more miles you can reasonably make before the next pause. And you keep going, not because you're motivated, but because you're disciplined enough to trust that morning will come. Resilience often looks like that. It's not dramatic. It's not loud. It's not about powering through with a positive attitude. It's about staying present long enough for the sun to rise so you can rub your eyes and realize just how far you've already come. Some seasons don't require more motivation. They require more honesty. An honest look at what you're working with, what you can change, and what you might need to approach differently. And that kind of honesty is where resilience actually begins. So today, I want to slow this conversation down. Not to fix anything, but to notice it. To explore what resilience really looks like when life feels hard, and why discipline, not motivation, is often what carries us forward. CHALLENGE: Stop waiting for motivation and start honoring the discipline that's already carrying you forward. Take an honest inventory of where you are, choose one small step you can take with integrity, and allow yourself to pause without quitting. Remember, just because the road feels dark doesn't mean you're off course. I Know YOU Can Do It!

In today's episode, I explore an important topic in modern parenting: the importance of struggle, and how easily it's being lost in a world shaped by convenience, technology, and AI. While AI is part of the conversation, this episode goes deeper, focusing on what happens when children no longer get enough practice doing hard things.I explain why struggle is not a problem to eliminate, but a critical part of healthy brain development. When kids wrestle with challenges, frustration, effort, and uncertainty, they build resilience, problem-solving skills, emotional regulation, and confidence. These capacities don't come from ease or shortcuts, they come from experience.The episode gently challenges the instinct to smooth the path too much for our children, especially when tools like AI can quickly remove discomfort. Throughout the conversation, the message is clear: kids don't need life to be harder, but they do need meaningful struggle. When parents stay present, encouraging, and regulated, children learn that they can tolerate difficulty and come out stronger on the other side.Jennifer's Takeaways:The Importance of Struggle in Parenting (00:00)Understanding Dopamine and Its Role in Motivation (00:48)The Impact of Technology on Children's Motivation (03:37)The Concept of Optimal Frustration (05:33)The Role of AI in Education and Parenting (09:13)Building Resilience and Mental Health (14:13)The Importance of Valuing the Process Over the Outcome (14:50)The Role of Parents in Guiding Children's Development (19:44)The Impact of AI on Emotional Maturity and Resilience (19:56)Meet Jennifer KolariJennifer Kolari is the host of the “Connected Parenting” weekly podcast and the co-host of “The Mental Health Comedy” podcast.

Their story reveals how internal strength is forged through profound suffering, moving from a place of human fragility to firm faith.This episode will help you shift your perspective on current troubles—not by ignoring them, but by learning how to fix your gaze on the unseen.
