Podcasts about Capacity

You can have the most mind-blowing healing experience of your life and still find yourself right back in familiar patterns. Why? Because the nervous system defaults to what it knows. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we explore why insight alone does not create lasting change and why the most intense healing experiences do not start in the mind, they start in the body. Co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof, founder of BrainBased.com and the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification, and Jennifer Wallace, Neurosomatic Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Guide, unpack peak somatic experiences through a trauma-informed lens. Together, they examine how experiences like breathwork, somatic practices, and psychedelics interact with neuroplasticity, interoception, and complex trauma. They also name an often-missing piece of the conversation: these experiences are not inherently healing without preparation, capacity, and integration. This episode offers a grounded, nuanced discussion of why peak somatic experiences can be both transformative and destabilizing, especially for nervous systems shaped by chronic stress, dissociation, or developmental trauma. Rather than promoting quick fixes or heroic doses, Elisabeth and Jennifer emphasize nervous system safety, minimum effective dose, and relational support as essential ingredients for real, embodied change.   Timestamps: 00:00 – Why insight alone does not create change 05:40 – What peak somatic experiences are and are not 14:20 – Neuroplasticity, psychedelics, and the default mode network 28:10 – Somatic memory, dissociation, and complex trauma 44:30 – Why preparation and integration matter more than the experience itself 58:45 – Risks, discernment, and trauma-informed support 1:12:30 – Capacity building and minimum effective dose 1:24:00 – Integration, regulation, and long-term nervous system change Key Takeaways: Peak somatic experiences amplify existing nervous system patterns rather than replacing them. Neuroplasticity is neutral and requires direction, support, and integration. Somatic memory often surfaces without narrative recall, especially in complex trauma. Preparation and capacity determine whether an experience is healing or destabilizing. Lasting change happens through consistent, embodied integration, not one-time breakthroughs.

In this episode of The Modern Hairstylist Podcast, Hunter Donia continues his Year in Review series with Part 2, and this one is all about capacity. Not time on the calendar, but the actual energy it takes to keep saying yes, keep moving, and keep chasing the next experience. Hunter breaks down what happened after a season of constant travel, tour dates, and personal plans stacked back to back, and the moment he realized that being grateful and being burned out can exist at the exact same time.If you have ever wondered why you can technically “fit it in” but still feel like you are running on fumes, this conversation will hit. Hunter shares how he is learning to make decisions from a place of self respect, plan ahead with intention, and build a life where fulfillment is not only reserved for the biggest trips or the biggest moments.Key Takeaways:

Why Peace in Your Home Requires Capacity, Not Perfection Many Christian parents believe peace will come when they finally get it right — fewer mistakes, better routines, calmer reactions. In this episode, Diana Bigham explains why peace doesn't come from perfection, but from capacity: the ability to stay present, regulated, and grounded when things are hard. You'll learn how capacity — not control — creates safety in your home, why leadership matters more than flawless parenting, and how small internal shifts can radically change the atmosphere your children experience. Episode Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction: Why peace feels elusive for many parents 01:40 – The myth that peace comes from getting it right 03:20 – What capacity actually means in everyday parenting 05:15 – Perfection vs presence: why perfection increases pressure 07:10 – A real-life meltdown example: control vs leadership 09:05 – Why leadership creates safety (not compliance) 11:00 – How children learn peace through our capacity 12:45 – Why capacity is built over time, not in one moment 14:15 – Reflection question + Pioneer Parent invitation Key Takeaway Peace in your home doesn't come from eliminating conflict, it comes from having the capacity to stay present and lead well when conflict shows up. Reflective Question Where do I lose capacity the fastest in my parenting, and what might that be inviting me to grow? Want to build real capacity instead of chasing perfection?

In this Day 8 episode of 12 Days of Divorce Christmas, Coach Tiffini joins me to unpack what actually happens inside your nervous system when you try to bring old traditions into a new life after divorce...especially in this in-between week between the holidays and the New Year.Through an IFS (Internal Family Systems) lens, we talk about the protective parts that step in when traditions carry grief, memory, and expectation. Not because you're doing it wrong—but because your system may not feel safe enough yet to repeat what once belonged to a different life.This isn't about mindset. It's not about trying harder. And it's not about forcing yourself to “make it meaningful.”It's about understanding why recreating traditions after divorce can backfire—and how to stop fighting the resistance long enough to listen to what your body is actually asking for.If the holidays after divorce feel emotionally confusing, muted, or harder than you expected—especially as New Year approaches—this episode will help you make sense of that without judging yourself or rushing the process.Your nervous system is doing exactly what it's designed to do.Join Dear Divorce Diary Premium to access the full 12 Days of Divorce Christmas.Capacity builds in connection.

The journey of entrepreneurship can often feel at odds with the realities of living with chronic illness, particularly when it comes to the concept of capacity. In this episode, we tackle the often-misunderstood idea of capacity, shifting the narrative from a relentless push for more to a compassionate understanding of what we can realistically manage. Capacity isn't just about productivity; it's about how much our bodies and minds can handle at any given moment, especially when faced with the unpredictable nature of chronic health issues. We explore the three primary forms of capacity that influence our entrepreneurial experience: emotional, cognitive, and energetic. Emotional capacity is crucial for handling the stress of marketing and visibility, particularly for those of us who may struggle with the expectations of always being “on.” Cognitive capacity reflects our ability to think and make decisions, which can be severely impacted by the demands of content creation and the fast-paced nature of social media. Lastly, energetic capacity speaks to the physical and sensory energy we can muster, which is often the most variable due to chronic health conditions. This episode emphasizes the importance of creating business systems that align with our current capacity rather than pushing us to meet unrealistic expectations. By focusing on long-form content, such as podcasting, we can share our stories and connect with our audience without the stress of constant output. The key takeaway is that our capacity is not the enemy; instead, it's our perceptions and business practices that need to adapt to honor our humanity. This understanding fosters a more sustainable approach to entrepreneurship, allowing us to thrive not despite our chronic illnesses but alongside them.Takeaways:Understanding capacity in business is not about doing more, but about what your nervous system can handle.Marketing strategies need to reflect the reality of fluctuating capacities, especially for those with chronic illnesses.Creating a business model that honors your humanity can lead to sustainable success without burnout.Podcasting serves as a capacity-aware marketing tool, reducing stress while allowing for authentic connection.✨ Thank you for listening.Here's how to connect with Nikita, your host:→ Book A Sales Call Here→ Grab your Free Curated Podcast for Business Growth Playlist→ Grab the Podcast Planner + App to start and grow your podcast with ease.→ Grab Your Free 5-Day Private Podcast Series to Help You Make Sales with Ease with Long-Form Content and Nervous-System-Friendly Marketing Strategies for Women with Chronic Illness & Burnt-Out Entrepreneurs.⭐ Loved this episode?

Christmas after divorce can hit your body before your mind ever catches up.You can know logically that other people's celebrations have nothing to do with you—and still feel the ache, the comparison, the quiet grief in your chest when you wake up.Today's episode is different.This is a short quantum healing track designed to help your nervous system release the emotional charge that gets activated when you imagine other families celebrating—and then turn back toward your own reality.Quantum healing works by bringing awareness to how your body responds to emotional contrast, then gently clearing the stored stress response without forcing positivity or bypassing grief.By the end of this track, many women notice: – less heaviness in the chest – a softening of comparison and loneliness – a calmer, more grounded nervous system – more space to meet Christmas Day as it actually isNo fixing. No reframing. Just relief.Press play when you're somewhere quiet and let your body do what it already knows how to do.Join Dear Divorce Diary Premium to access the full 12 Days of Divorce Christmas.Capacity builds in connection.

Forester and timber consultant Kraig Moore (KY/TN) breaks down the 2025 hardwood landscape: prices up roughly 3% YoY overall (net flat after inflation), sharp species splits (yellow-poplar +~20%, sugar maple +20–30%, white oak −~11% YoY but +~52% over 5 years; walnut +~85% over 5 years), and fragile mill capacity after 100+ sawmill closures in two years. He explains how tariffs, China's historic pull for ~40% of U.S. lumber, and production shifting to Vietnam (labor ~⅓ cheaper than China) are reshaping demand. For landowners, the play is smart silviculture, competition-driven quality, patch clear-cuts/group selection, avoiding diameter-limit cuts, and aligning to mills within ~60–90 miles, to grow value and keep white oak (bourbon barrel essential) regenerating amid maple/beech pressure. Kentucky is ~50% forested, and with interest rates easing and housing starts improving, Kraig is cautiously bullish on hardwoods as a diversification pillar. Episode takeaways: Market snapshot: Hardwood prices ~+3% YoY overall (inflation-adjusted ≈ flat), with big winners (yellow-poplar, sugar maple) and laggards (hickory; white oak down YoY but strong 5-yr trend; walnut dominant long-term). Capacity risk: 100+ sawmills gone in two years; if demand pops, supply could choke, pushing prices up fast. Trade shift: China historically bought ~40% of U.S. lumber/logs; tariffs drove processing to Vietnam (labor ~⅓ cheaper than China), altering log vs. lumber economics. Profit strategy for landowners: Manage for competition (natural pruning/straightness), use patch clear-cuts/group selection, avoid diameter-limit cuts, and time sales to species cycles. Operational realities: Best ROI when mills are within ~60–90 miles; steep terrain or helicopter logging crush margins. White oak future: Main challenge is regeneration, not overharvest, control shade-tolerant maple/beech, open canopy on the right aspects, and keep foresters involved.

OVERVIEWAnaerobic capacity is the work you can do above your lactate threshold. Another term for it is Functional Reserve Capacity (FRC), and it acts like a battery that contains a finite amount of energy that runs out quickly and must be recharged before a subsequent use. FRC is your high-intensity, explosive power for winning sprints, creating breakaways, closing gaps, and riding competitors off your wheel. In the final episode in this series with WKO Data Leader and Coach Tim Cusick, Tim and CTS Coach Adam Pulford discuss what FRC is, how to train it, the consequences of focusing on FRC (you may have to sacrifice some FTP for it), and therefore when and how much FRC work to incorporate into your training plan.Topics Covered In This Episode:Definitions of anaerobic capacity and functional reserve capacity (FRC)Anaerobic Capacity adaptation from 1-2 weeks of trainingAnaerobic Capacity adaptation from 2-5 weeks of trainingWhy FRC training intensities must be SUPER HARD!Recommended interval workouts for FRC trainingWhen to incorporate FRC workouts into your trainingResourcesTim at Basecamp: https://www.joinbasecamp.com/tim-cusick Tim on IG https://www.instagram.com/tim.cusick_coach/Stress vs Strain: Difference Between Stress and Strain - GeeksforGeeks https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/physics/difference-between-stress-and-strain/Guest Bio:Tim Cusick is a world-class cycling coach, a leader in data analytics for endurance sports, an educator, and an innovative business leader.

Everybody wants bigger results in 2026—more money, more freedom, more impact. Almost nobody wants the pressure that actually builds the capacity to handle it. In this episode, Jim breaks down the "furnace" moments of life—those seasons of heat, friction, and resistance—and shows how they're not punishment, they're training. Capacity, not talent, is what 2026 will reward. Using the S.A.I.D. principle from strength training, Navy SEAL mental toughness, and Dan Sullivan's Four C's, Jim unpacks how God uses pressure to expose your default operating system and forge you into someone who can hold more wealth, more responsibility, and more calling—without cracking. If you've been trying to avoid the heat, this conversation will help you see pressure as the forge where Breakaway Wealth leaders are made. What You'll Learn Why 2026 will reward capacity, and how to start building it now. How the S.A.I.D. principle (specific adaptation to imposed demands) applies not just to muscle, but to your brain, resilience, and wealth. The four types of pressure to train for 2026, and what training each one actually looks like.

Welcome to Day 2 of the 12 Days of Divorce Christmas...also known as the 12 Days of Becoming Her Again.Today we're talking about something no one prepares you for after divorce: when the house is too quiet.Not peaceful quiet.Not restful quiet.The kind of quiet that feels heavy, deafening, and impossible to sit in.When the house feels too quiet, most of us instinctively want to:distractdissociateget busyscrolleatspendnumbAnything to avoid being alone with the silence.But today, Joy and I offer a third option...one that doesn't involve running away or forcing yourself to sit still and “process.”We talk about why:Silence after divorce can dysregulate your nervous systemStillness isn't always calming when you're grievingMany women forget how to play, make noise, and take up space when they're aloneAnd then we invite you into something different.This episode is about:Using sound, volume, and movement as nervous system medicineReclaiming your right to be loud in your own homeReleasing stored emotion through music, voice, and playReconnecting to parts of you that were silenced — as a child, as a wife, as a womanThis is not about being productive. It's not about doing healing “right.”It's about aliveness.If the quiet has been breaking you, this episode will help you meet it differently — with energy, humor, and permission to be big.

Tom Modly warns that China's shipbuilding capacity vastly outpaces the US, requiring a shift toward distributed forces rather than expensive, concentrated platforms. He advocates for a reinvigorated, independent Department of the Navy to foster the creativity needed to address asymmetric threats like Houthi attacks on high-value assets. 1918 SEVASTOPOL

A new report by the Bloomberg-funded website The Trace, published in partnership with Rolling Stone, is meant to portray the firearms industry as greedy purveyors of violence who flooded American streets with hundreds of millions of ammunition magazines that can hold more than ten rounds. Despite the tone, the piece proves what gun owners have said all alone; these magazines are commonly-owned for lawful purposes and should, therefore, be protected by the Second Amendment.

Integration is often treated as something that happens after a breakthrough — once insight, therapy, or a peak somatic or psychedelic experience is complete. But what if integration is actually the skill that determines whether healing lasts at all? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof and Jennifer Wallace explore integration as a nervous system process, not a mindset shift. Drawing from Neurosomatic Intelligence (NSI), lived experience, and years of trauma and integration work, they unpack why powerful insights so often fade — and why the body, not the mind, decides what sticks. The conversation examines nervous system capacity, preparation, and neuroplasticity, explaining how survival patterns can override even profound experiences when the body isn't resourced to receive them. They discuss emotional and somatic breakthroughs, dissociation, the overlooked role of the body in psychedelic research, and why the "space after" healing experiences can feel disorienting without support. Rather than chasing peak moments, this episode reframes healing as an embodied practice — one built through repetition, regulation, intuition, and daily nervous system support so new ways of being can truly take root. Timestamps: 00:00 Integration as a buzzword — and why it's misunderstood 05:30 Integration as a nervous system skill, not a mindset 12:40 Why breakthroughs fade and survival patterns take over 20:15 Capacity, preparation, and why insight can overwhelm the body 28:50 Neuroplasticity, repetition, and what you get better at 38:10 Emotional breakthroughs, dissociation, and somatic journeys 48:30 Psychedelic experiences, embodiment, and what research misses 58:45 The "space after" healing — identity shifts and disorientation 1:07:30 Worthiness, intuition, and integrating truth into daily life 1:18:00 Why healing takes time — and what it means to give time space 1:25:00 Closing reflections on integration as a way of being Key Takeaways: Integration is not a cognitive process — it is how the nervous system learns to embody insight through repetition, regulation, and safety. Capacity determines whether an experience lands, overwhelms, or gets overridden by survival patterns. Preparation is essential for psychedelic and peak somatic experiences; without it, neuroplasticity can reinforce old patterns instead of creating change. Emotional and somatic breakthroughs require nervous system skill, especially for those with dissociation or long-standing protective responses. Healing often creates space before clarity — integration is choosing what fills that space next. Lasting change happens slowly, through daily practice, nervous system support, and honoring intuition rather than chasing intensity.

As the world slows down in the quiet space between years, Chanie invites school leaders into a powerful reflection:What did this year build in you?Not what you accomplished…Not what you finished…Not what you checked off the list…But what was formed within you as a leader navigating exhaustion, momentum, setbacks, breakthroughs, culture challenges, enrollment pressures, financial strain, team transition, and the very real humanity of leadership.In this deeply personal episode, Chanie shares her own journey through 2025 — a year that stretched her capacity, reshaped her identity as a leader, and forced her to develop new rhythms of discernment, emotional regulation, faith, marriage, health, and operational leadership.And while the details are her own, the themes are universal for school leaders:The invisible weight you carryThe pressure to remember everythingThe instinct to manage every outcomeThe exhaustion of holding everyone's emotionsThe desire for relief without guiltThe dance of relationshipsThe need for rhythms, not more systemsThis episode is a mirror, reflecting back the capacity you've built this year, often without even noticing.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeThe Leadership Lessons Inside a Full Year of StretchWhy capacity is built in friction, stretch, and tension — not in easeHow slowing down becomes a leadership strategy, not a setbackThe hidden emotional labor behind writing This Can't Be NormalWhat the Five Gears framework revealed about school operations and leadershipWhy memory can't be your leadership system — and how rhythms carry what your brain shouldn'tHow marriage, teams, and leadership all share the same “choreography” of conflictWhat it means to return — and why trust is built in the returnHow faith, steadiness, and presence become leadership anchorsThe power of “living the question” instead of rushing toward clarityWhy you're not behind — you're in a season that's building youKey Insights for School Leaders1.

You don't need more strategy. You need more capacity. If you've ever wondered why you're working harder than ever but not seeing the growth you expected, this episode will feel like a deep exhale. Leadership mentor and capacity expert Lisa Fabrega returns for a conversation that every studio owner needs to hear before stepping into a new year of growth. Lisa breaks down the six "visibility levers" that determine how you show up as a leader, how you attract the right families, and how you sustain momentum without burning out. From pricing to team to positioning, she reveals why many studio owners aren't stuck—they're simply focusing on the wrong thing. If visibility feels exhausting… if you're attracting the wrong clients… if your big ideas collapse under the weight of execution… this episode will show you exactly where to look and how to find your next right step. You'll walk away with clarity, direction, and permission to stop doing everything and finally focus on what matters most. What You'll Learn: The "domino effect" and why solving one problem often solves 10 more The six visibility levers and how they directly impact your studio Why some visibility strategies drain you while others energize you How to identify your biggest bottleneck (your "Domino") The pricing and sales mistakes that quietly erode your confidence How misaligned messaging attracts the wrong clients Why capacity is the real key to sustainable growth How to stop leaking energy into comparison, overworking, and overwhelm What to focus on for the next 30 days to create real change Lisa Fabrega is a writer and inner-leadership mentor for high-performing womxn who are ready to step into the highest expression of their work.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I take a moment to reflect on the powerful lessons learned from witnessing a marathon a true test of endurance, not just physically but mentally and emotionally. This wasn't just any marathon; it was a moment of transformation for so many people, a reminder that sometimes life requires us to push through pain and discomfort to discover what we're truly capable of. Over the weekend, I had the privilege of seeing many of our agents and their loved ones cross the finish line of a 26-mile marathon. These individuals willingly chose to endure the physical, mental, and emotional grind of this challenge. To me, it wasn't about the race itself but about what happened in the process. Watching them struggle through the miles, yet still smile despite the pain, was a beautiful display of human resilience. As I joined them, offering words of encouragement along the way, I couldn't help but reflect on my own experiences with pushing my own limits. I've been there, going through moments of deep struggle whether climbing Camelback Mountain or surviving an Ironman 70.3 triathlon. Each of these challenges, no matter how tough, reminds me of something crucial: that life isn't about avoiding hardship, but about leaning into it to grow. The True Value of Struggle It's easy to look at accomplishments as mere checkmarks on a list. But completing a marathon or any tough challenge isn't about the finish line itself; it's about who you become in the process. The real lesson isn't in crossing the line but in what you do after that. What's next? What will you create from the lessons you've learned? This marathon wasn't the end of the journey for these agents. It was just a checkpoint, a milestone that will propel them to greater things in both their personal and professional lives. After all, when you push beyond your limits, it's hard to stay the same. It's not about chasing highs or accolades. It's about developing the discipline to continue growing every day, beyond the big events, beyond the visible moments of success. For many of our agents, this marathon was more than just a race. It was a stepping stone a reminder that in life, the pain we feel in the moment can lead to long-term transformation. The same applies to our everyday struggles, whether in business, relationships, or personal growth. Life will always challenge us, but it's through overcoming those challenges that we discover the depths of our potential. Reflecting on Life's Journey When we push ourselves, we often surprise ourselves. What was once painful becomes something we look back on with pride. In watching others cross that finish line, I was reminded that each of us has a unique capacity for resilience. Life doesn't get easier, but it becomes more meaningful when we embrace the discomfort, learn from it, and use it to raise our own standards. We have to keep pushing. There's no such thing as the "best days" being behind us. Each day is a new opportunity to expand, to grow, and to build on the foundation we've laid. The marathon didn't define our agents; it merely highlighted what they're capable of and how much more they have inside them. And that, to me, is the essence of life. Conclusion So, what happens after the race? That's the real question. As the finish lines fade and the excitement dies down, the work continues. Life doesn't stop at the big victories. It's what we do next that shapes who we truly are. And for all the individuals who completed this marathon, I'm excited to see where this challenge takes them. Because it's never just about running the race. It's about what you do with the strength you gain once it's over. Reader Engagement Questions Have you ever pushed yourself beyond what you thought was possible? How did that experience shape you? What's a challenge you're facing in your life right now that could push your limits? How can you use this as an opportunity for growth? How do you stay motivated after achieving a big goal? How do you ensure that you continue to grow once the excitement fades? Notable Quotes: "It's not just about the finish line. It's about what happens after you cross it, about what you do with what you've learned." "When you push beyond your limits, it's hard to stay the same. You have to intentionally trip yourself up to go backwards." "The marathon wasn't the end of the journey. It was a checkpoint a new standard of what is possible." Follow A.Z.

Not the decisions. Not the weight of doing this alone.This episode isn't here to convince you otherwise.It's here to help you understand that when you feel like you can't, it's not weakness or victimhood — it's a capacity issue, not a character flaw.In today's episode, we talk about:Why feeling like “I can't do this” often means your system is depleted, not brokenHow divorce grief and the holidays quietly drain nervous system capacityWhy being “too strong for too long” eventually leads to collapseWhat actually increases capacity (and what doesn't)A short, gentle vagal breathing practice to help your body downshift in real timeThis is not a big breakthrough episode. It's a grounding episode.Water.Food.Breath.Connection.The basics that matter when everything feels like too much.You don't need to fix your life today.You just need enough capacity to stay present.And today, that's enough.

Understanding Trusts and Estates: A Deep Dive into Testamentary FreedomThis conversation delves into the foundational aspects of trusts and estates law, focusing on the critical elements of wills, capacity, testamentary intent, and the balance between testamentary freedom and public policy constraints. It explores the differences between probate and non-probate assets, the role of financial intermediaries, and the legal challenges surrounding will validity, including capacity, undue influence, fraud, and mistakes. The discussion emphasizes the importance of procedural safeguards in protecting the testator's intent and navigating the complexities of will contests.In the realm of law, the concept of testamentary freedom stands as a cornerstone, granting individuals the power to dictate the distribution of their assets posthumously. This principle, however, is not without its challenges and limitations, as explored in our recent lecture on trusts and estates.The Balancing Act: Freedom vs. Public PolicyAt the heart of trusts and estates law lies a fundamental tension: the individual's right to control their assets versus societal norms and protections. This lecture delved into the critical tension points, such as the principle of testamentary freedom and the public policy constraints that aim to protect vulnerable family members and prevent fraud.Key Doctrines and Legal TestsThe lecture highlighted essential doctrines like undue influence and insane delusion, which ensure that a will reflects the true intent of the testator. The discussion also covered the low threshold for testamentary capacity, emphasizing the law's commitment to upholding an individual's final wishes.Modern Challenges and Legal InnovationsWith the rise of non-probate transfers and the evolving landscape of wealth distribution, the lecture addressed the shift from traditional probate processes to financial intermediaries handling routine transfers. This change underscores the importance of understanding both probate and non-probate assets, especially for law students preparing for exams.The Philosophical QuestionAs we navigate the complexities of trusts and estates, we are left with a profound question: How much control should the deceased have over the living? This philosophical inquiry invites us to reflect on the balance between individual autonomy and societal values, a theme that resonates throughout the study of inheritance law.Subscribe now to stay informed on the latest insights in trusts and estates law.TakeawaysTrusts and estates law balances the wishes of the deceased with the rights of the living.Probate property requires court involvement, while non-probate property does not.Financial intermediaries have largely replaced probate courts for routine asset transfers.A will is a revocable instrument that takes effect upon the testator's death.Capacity to make a will is assessed at the moment of execution.Insane delusions can invalidate a will if they directly affect its provisions.Undue influence involves external pressure that compromises the testator's free will.Fraud can invalidate a will if the testator is misled about its contents or external facts.Mistakes in execution can invalidate a will, while mistakes in factum may be corrected by courts.Public policy can restrict testamentary freedom, especially regarding disinheritance.trusts, estates, wills, testamentary freedom, probate, non-probate, capacity, undue influence, fraud, public policy

I continue to research human communication and find the vast majority of everything we communicate is subjective. We are seldom discussing facts and right, wrong, black, white issues. They may feel so to us, but if pressed we'd need to admit that what we are arguing or advocating for is not fact. The topic or issue is not unanimously proven. But it's efficient to just cite our perspective as truth. It takes time and effort to really understand and consider all sides. So I sat down with an expert on this concept. Wendy K. Smith has a PhD in organizational behavior from Harvard and is the Dana J. Johnson Professor of Management and faculty director of the Women's Leadership Initiative at University of Delaware. She is an expert on organizational paradoxes, exploring how leaders and individuals effectively respond to contradictory, yet interdependent demands. She spends her time continually working to better manage the paradoxes of life that we all face. Wendy is co-author of the book,"Both/And Thinking: Embracing Creative Tensions to Solve Your Toughest Problems.” This topic is of utmost importance to me as I continue to see our world in conflict and people more isolated.

High performance often leads to burnout, decision fatigue, and a body that never feels settled. This episode reveals what high capacity actually feels like in your nervous system — and why identity safety is the foundation of sustainable peace, presence, and leadership.High achievers know how to perform — but many quietly wonder why their body never fully relaxes, even when life looks good. This episode maps the felt experience of becoming a High Capacity Human, where identity safety replaces pressure, bracing, and survival-driven success.Drawing from nervous system science (Polyvagal Theory), embodied psychology, and identity formation, Julie explores the quiet but unmistakable shifts that happen when your identity begins to match the life you're leading. This is where burnout recovery deepens, decision fatigue lifts, and the body finally stops keeping score of old roles you've outgrown.Inside this episode, you'll learn:• the somatic cues that signal you're moving from high performance to high capacity • how ventral vagal safety feels compared to sympathetic “readiness mode” • why identity margin creates the internal space your nervous system craves • the surprising way your body tells you the truth long before your mind does • how co-regulation and relational safety expand your ability to lead • what “identity safety” feels like in real life — calm, connected, and unforced• why presence, not pressure, is the actual pathway to sustainable impactJulie also names a truth high-capacity humans rarely hear:you don't need to become more — you need room to be fully you.Ask yourself:“Where in my life does my body feel the most permission to soften — and what does that tell me about who I'm becoming?”Then explore:• What sensation rises when I allow myself to be fully present?• What identity am I reclaiming in that softness?• What tension drops when I stop bracing?Team extension:“What would shift if our culture valued steadiness over urgency?”If today's episode gave you language your body has been trying to speak, leave a rating and review so more high-capacity humans can find The Recalibration.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

The final Transfix Take of the year arrives at the peak of chaos — and opportunity — in the freight market. This week, Jenni Ruiz and NFI's market expert Justin Maze break down one of the most volatile December surges we've seen since the pandemic era. With spot rates spiking, winter weather wreaking havoc, and carriers finally regaining the upper hand, Maze walks listeners through what's driving the sudden escalation — and what it means as we head into 2026. Jenni and Maze take you region by region across the U.S. to unpack: • Why national spot rates are climbing faster than expected, with a potential 20¢ jump by New Year's • How winter storms and rollover freight are creating a ripple effect across long-haul and cross-country lanes • The Midwest's shocking 5%+ breakouts and what's behind the biggest surge of any region • Capacity tightening on the West Coast despite minimal weather disruptions • The looming non-domicile CDL rulings that could reshape Q1 and Q2 capacity • Whether this is officially the start of the carrier “revenge market” Maze also shares his early forecast for 2026 — including how January sets the tone, why a 5–8% annual rate increase is firmly on the table, and what brokers must do now to keep carriers aligned heading into the new year. It's our last episode of the year — and one of the most insight-packed. If you're a freight broker, shipper, or anyone navigating transportation volatility, this is the year-end debrief you don't want to miss. -- Disclaimer: All views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Transfix, Inc. or any parent companies or affiliates or the companies with which the participants are affiliated, and may have been previously disseminated by them.

High performance often leads to pressure, bracing, and identity drift. This episode reveals how high achievers move from survival-driven excellence into grounded, high-capacity presence. Learn why reducing identity load—not adding discipline—creates real freedom.Why does high performance eventually feel like pressure instead of possibility?In this episode, Julie unpacks the identity and nervous system map behind the shift from high performer to High Capacity Human, showing why bracing becomes your default and how alignment—not more discipline—creates the internal expansion you've been craving.You'll learn how three types of load quietly accumulate beneath your success:• Cognitive Load — the tasks you track, manage, and anticipate• Emotional Load — the responsibilities you hold for others• Identity Load — the version of you that performs instead of expressesTogether, these loads create the pressure, sympathetic activation, and identity margin that make even good seasons feel heavier than they should.Julie breaks down the difference between negative drive (pressure, vigilance, survival) and positive drive (presence, grounded clarity, internal safety), offering a transformational reframe:Capacity isn't what you produce —It's who you become when your life and identity finally match.This episode helps high-capacity humans name:• why they brace even when nothing is wrong• why performance feels safer than presence• why approval, excellence, and responsibility became identity• why calm feels unfamiliar• the emotional and physiological signs of identity margin• how reducing identity load increases internal capacity• why capacity begins where bracing endsThis conversation also clarifies why mindset work and productivity tools are insufficient for true change.Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) goes deeper — past habits, past hacks, past performance patterns — into the root of who you are.It's not another strategy.It's the foundational identity shift that makes every other tool effective again.Micro Recalibration (Individuals + Teams)Ask yourself:“Which version of me is carrying the most load — and which part of that load is no longer mine?”Notice:• What shifts in your posture or breath when you step into that version?• What would 2% less bracing feel like in that moment?Team Extension:“What unspoken expectations shape how we perform — and what would change if we valued presence over pressurIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

I sat down with my girl, Libby Wescombe (her 6th time on the pod — because every time she evolves, we evolve with her), and we went ALL the way in on the conversation women aren't having out loud: food, disordered eating, tracking, cardio, capacity, nervous system, and why so many women are exhausted doing “all the right things.” We talk about how tracking went from helpful tool to identity, why 95% of women are sitting somewhere on the disordered eating spectrum, and how the industry quietly taught us to outsource our hunger, our cues, and our power to an app. Then we flip it. Lib walks us through her shift from “macros as a lifestyle” to building women who can actually live their lives — women with an aerobic base, emotional regulation, and a relationship with food that isn't built on fear. We go hard on this idea of capacity:If your nervous system can't handle your life, it can't handle your training.If you can't recover from your day, of course you can't recover from your deadlifts. This episode is part intervention, part blueprint. If you've ever struggled with tracking, food obsession, overwhelm, burnout, poor recovery, or feeling like your body is “not responding,” this conversation is going to crack something open for you girl. This one is for the woman who wants to build muscle, get strong, train hard, and live a big life — without falling apart in the process. ____ Key Takeaways Most women don't have a food problem — they have a relationship problem. Tracking didn't fail you. The industry taught you to outsource your hunger, your cues, and your confidence to an app. Disordered eating isn't rare — it's the norm. 95% of women are living somewhere on the continuum without realising it. A strong body is built on behaviours, not rules. Women who maintain strength, muscle, and ease don't rely on hacks — they live a different kind of life. Internal boundaries are the missing piece. Not macro targets, not fasting windows, not food rules. Your own hunger, satisfaction, rhythm, and awareness. Your aerobic base is your recovery system. If you can't recover from life, you won't recover from lifting. Capacity isn't optional — it's the engine for everything. Strength and cardio aren't in competition — they are co-conspirators. One builds the muscle. The other builds the woman who can keep it. Overwhelm isn't a personal flaw — it's a lack of strategy. You're not tired because you can't handle it. You're tired because no one taught you how to handle it. You can't skim your way into a different body. At some point you have to stop consuming and start marinating — in a method, in the work, in yourself. ____ Quotes “If you can't not track, the problem isn't your macros — it's your relationship with food.” — Amy “Your capacity for life is your capacity for training. If you can't handle your life, why would your body handle the training you're asking of it?” — Libby “Tracking is a tool, like a deadlift. We've just put it on a pedestal and built our whole identity around it.” — Libby “Women don't need more rules. They need a relationship with their body that they actually trust.” — Amy “You don't have a training problem or a food problem. You have a strategy problem.” — Amy ____ Resources Mentioned Book: The Rules of Normal Eating — Karen R.

Scaling isn't just about strategy, it's about capacity. Yet, I find our industry is often missing so much nuance when it comes to the conversation around capacity. In this solo episode, I dive deep into what it actually means to grow your capacity without burning out or over-functioning.  We'll talk about the two types of capacity that are required to expand and grow and what order you need to address them in. This is hard-won information from my own growth journey and working with so many clients that have scaled to seven figure years and beyond.  In this episode, you'll hear: • Why expanding your capacity is such a misunderstood topic IMO • The two types of support required to actually scale (in a way that won't leave you crispy) • The most important question to ask yourself to figure out where things need to shift for you  • The most common blocks that limit your ability to expand  • Why there actually is a *right* order to move in if you want to shift your capacity quickly • What it looks like to build capacity for both challenges and joy Episode Links Join my Facebook group Connect with Molly on Instagram Learn more about Molly on her website If you're enjoying the coaching you're hearing, check out my Ultimate Mini Course to Maximizing Results in 1:1 Coaching to learn the proven strategies & foundational tools for creating an in-demand container that gets your clients real results

In this episode of the FreightWaves Morning Minute, we break down the conflicting economic signals heading into 2026 as plummeting operational costs collide with tightening capacity. ⁠Benchmark diesel falls again as oil market selloff picks up steam⁠, with crude futures dipping below $60 per barrel even as retail pump prices struggle to catch up to the drop. Capacity pressures are intensifying from factories to fulfillment centers, ⁠as more layoffs hit U.S. supply chain⁠, including over 4,200 recent job cuts at major companies like Ford and Great Dane. These structural reductions highlight a market realignment that goes beyond typical seasonal dips, creating significant capacity constraints across the sector. New government data reveals that ⁠truck transportation jobs last month were the lowest in years⁠, dropping to levels not seen since June 2021. Despite this decline in employment, the capacity squeeze has pushed the average hourly wage for non-supervisory trucking employees to a record high of $31.40. Learn more about your ad choices.

If traditional professional development no longer fits, you're not alone.In this reflective episode, Melissa shares her learning plan for the year ahead - not as a checklist of goals, but as an expression of her identity.Rather than presenting a polished plan, she invites you into the thinking beneath it: the values guiding her leadership, her learning priorities in this season of life, and the move away from compliance-based professional development toward meaning-making.You'll hear reflections on:✨ Learning as Identity WorkWhy meaningful learning (and leadership) starts with values, not goals✨Sustainable Capacity in MidlifeHow you can honour the season of your life when making learning decisions✨ Emerging Learning PrioritiesLearn the four focus areas Melissa is leaning into to deepen her leadership✨ Designing Learning that Fits Real LifeWhy learning doesn't need to be rushed, and why alignment matters more than accumulationWhat's Coming Next ⏩This episode sets the stage for the final chapter of this mini-series.In Episode 72, Melissa shares the second part of her learning plan: exploring how a learning pathway actually takes shape when your work is multidimensional, your capacity is finite, and your identity continues to evolve.Thanks for coming along on this ride, and being a part of our learning journey. — Melissa & the OTGR Podcast Team

You don't need another breakthrough. You don't need another awakening. You don't need another insight. And you definitely don't need another method that works for three weeks and then collapses.What you may need is an integrated operating system.In this episode of Fire and Soul, I sit down with my dear friend and Transformational Leader Pavel Aeon for a grounded, uncompromising conversation about what happens after awakening, when growth outpaces the body, the nervous system, and the life structures meant to hold it.For the first time publicly, Pavel shares System Upgrade, and it is a genuine honor for me to be the place where this conversation is happening. System Upgrade is a monthly live summit with practical protocols and a global community for real transformation, created for high vibe freedom seekers who are ready to stabilize growth and live what they know.This is a yearlong global journey designed to support physical, emotional, mental, relational, and spiritual integration throughout 2026. Not as a promise of transformation, but as a way to stabilize change so growth no longer comes at the cost of burnout, isolation, or collapse.We talk honestly about the four phases of real transformation. Wake up. Clean up. Power up. Rest up. We explore why so many people cycle between expansion and exhaustion, how breath functions as a direct regulatory tool rather than a performance practice, and the quiet grief that often comes with outgrowing relationships, identities, and old ways of living.This conversation is not about becoming more spiritual. It's about becoming more capable of living what's already true.If you've felt the next chapter approaching and you're done paying for growth with your nervous system, this episode is for you.YOU'LL LEARN• Why repeated burnout is often a capacity issue rather than a personal failure• The four phases that determine whether transformation stabilizes or destabilizes• How breath supports regulation instead of performance• What happens when awakening outpaces the nervous system• Why relationships often change during periods of expansion• What Earth 2.0 actually means in everyday life• Who System Upgrade is designed for and why nowIf this conversation resonates, do not rush past that signal.System Upgrade is a yearlong global journey designed to support integration rather than peak experiences. You receive free access to monthly full day livestream summits, guided practices, weekly integration and coherence sessions, and a growing international community focused on sustainable evolution throughout 2026.This is not about becoming someone new. It's about upgrading the system that has to carry who you already are.Explore From Burnout to Earth 2.0 for free here:

In this raw conversation, I walk you through my own 2025 depletion audit and the four stages of burnout I see high-achieving women normalize every day.

What if the real reason you struggle to focus, remember what you read, or follow through on your goals has nothing to do with willpower or intelligence and everything to do with your values?In this episode, I sit down with world renowned human behavior expert Dr. John Demartini to explore how your values quietly control what you pay attention to, how fast you learn, and whether you actually apply what you know.Dr. Demartini went from being a high school dropout with dyslexia and a speech impediment to reading over 30,000 books, teaching in more than 100 countries, and becoming one of the most respected thinkers in human behavior and values. In our conversation, he breaks down the exact process he used to rewire his brain, accelerate his learning, and turn struggle into mastery.You will learn how to discover your true highest values, why they decide what your brain lets in or filters out, and how to link any subject even the ones you “hate” to what matters most to you so you stop procrastinating and start progressing. John also shares a powerful framework for moving from debate to dialogue so you can dissolve polarization, think more objectively, and actually change your mind when it serves you.This conversation will show you how to align your learning with your deepest values so you can focus longer, remember more, and finally unlock your fullest potential./ / / Ready to upgrade your brain? / / /Choose your own adventure.
