Today's podcast features Matt Aldred. Matt is the head strength and conditioning coach for basketball at the University of Michigan. He has international expertise and a diverse background in sports he has worked with through his previous stops in NCAA strength and conditioning. In addition to his strength and conditioning experience, he is certified in fascial abrasion technique and Frederick stretch therapy, in addition to a sports massage background. Matt has also co-authored the Fascial Mechanics for Sport course alongside Danny Foley. In building a performance program, it must ultimately be centered around the needs of the athlete. Athletes need to be as ready as possible on game day. Some athletes need more mass and physical strength. Others need more conditioning and body composition management. Others need more fluid and adaptive movement capabilities. Many athletes enjoy and benefit from providing their input into the program. These facets of performance make athletic development more dynamic than just “get them strong and I did my job”. On today's podcast, Matt talks about many aspects of building an athlete-centered program, highlighting training the spectrum of muscular strength and tissue quality, over to dynamic, high-velocity training with a priority on athletic qualities. He also speaks on training variability (such as “every rep different”), multi-planar training, basketball game demands, athlete autonomy, wearable resistance training, and much more. This show puts many pieces into place of a comprehensive approach to athletic development, encompassing so many facets of improvement in the field.

We have to replicate that in the weight room. We can't just be weight and warriors because we've all had that athlete that's super strong and looks amazing. And I'm looking at the opposition team in a warm up going, who is that!? And then they don't play." - Matt Aldred (00:13:50) "The longer I've done this, the more I really lean into an athlete's intuition." - Matt Aldred (00:20:40) "There are certain exercises like a chin-up we're probably going to want to go full range of motion. I want you to hold at the top with Tempo down. But if we're doing a horizontal row, man, I can be elbow wide. I can be really quick reps. I can hold at the top. I can do a split stance with an anchor on a Kaiser pull-down. We can make that horizontal roll whatever we want to do." - Matt Aldred (00:24:29) "I don't think that we put the athlete in the box like no man, like whatever you are, I'll program towards that." - Matt Aldred

For too long, women have been told that power belongs to men. In this unapologetic episode, Hilary Silver flips that script and names the truth out loud: women already hold the power—society just taught them to forget. Centered around a bold, taboo-breaking metaphor, Hilary dives deep into how patriarchy was built to control what it couldn't fully possess: female power, autonomy, and sexuality. Drawing from over 6,000 interviews with women over 40, she exposes how even the most outwardly successful women are still battling invisible chains of unworthiness and self-sacrifice. Episode Highlights: What men really want more than money or power How patriarchy is built on controlling what it can't possess Why high-achieving women often secretly struggle with self-worth The emotional labor and silence women have been conditioned to accept The first steps to reclaim your worth—without asking for permission Episode Breakdown: [00:00] Introduction [01:57] The Power Women Forget They Have [04:15] How Girls Are Taught to Shrink [06:12] When Success Masks Low Self-Worth [09:24] Women's Sacred, Untapped Power [10:06] Stop Seeking Approval and Start Owning It [10:27] How to Reclaim Your Power, Starting Now [12:03] Join the Self-Centered Movement This isn't about blame—it's about reclaiming. Hilary calls on women to stop asking, stop apologizing, and stop shrinking. Instead, she challenges listeners to rise, lead, and live unapologetically, with power and presence. Because pussy power? It's real. And it's time women stopped pretending it isn't.

Send us a text! We'd love to hear your thoughts on the show.I've got some news...this week I am going back to producing the show on a WEEKLY basis, instead of doing Seasons of 12 episodes. Expect more writerly goodness to come!I'm so excited to introduce you to the wonderful Sarah Selecky — award-winning author, beloved teacher, and founder of the Sarah Selecky Writing School. In this heartfelt conversation, Sarah and I dive into the rich and beautiful connection between creativity, mindfulness, and the writing life.Sarah shares how she's come to see writing not just as an art form, but as a contemplative practice — a way of being present, tuning into curiosity, and connecting with wonder. We talk about her brand-new book, Story is a State of Mind: Writing and the Art of Creative Curiosity, where she distills decades of her teaching and personal writing practice into a thoughtful, encouraging guide for writers who want to nurture both their intellect and intuition.During our conversation, Sarah and I explore something I know many writers struggle with — the balance between structure and creative freedom. She shares how her early writing grew from intuition rather than structured plotting, and what it looked like for her to learn how to bring structure into her storytelling without losing the sense of mystery and discovery that makes writing feel so alive.Sarah even offered a simple, beautiful exercise you can try — using pen and paper to list words starting with a single letter — to help ease into creativity without judgment. It's such a refreshing reminder that sometimes, the smallest rituals can gently open the door to deeper creative work.We also talked about the power of community — and how important it is for us, as writers, not to try and do this alone. Sarah shared her journey from solitary writer to community builder, and how her online space, Centered, grew out of a desire to support writers in a way that feels nourishing, intuitive, and sustainable. I love how Centered invites writers into a creative life rooted in wonder, rest, and shared joy — not hustle or competition. I've been part of this community and can highly recommend it!You can join in a workshop Sarah is offering through Centred on May 14th, with Amy T. Won, entitled Creative Contemplation Through Wonder, for just $20 as a drop-in fee.Throughout our conversation, what touched me most was Sarah's emphasis on giving ourselves grace. Writing creatively isn't easy — it asks us to bridge the worlds of structure and imagination in a way that's neurologically complex and deeply human. If you've ever struggled to trust your own creative instincts or felt overwhelmed by the pressure to “get it right,” this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air. I hope you'll find inspiration here to be gentler with yourself, reconnect with your love of words, and savor the deep, sustaining beauty of the writing life.Welcome back to the podcast -- I'm so glad you're here!
Welcome to Director Watch! On this AwardsWatch podcast, co-hosts Ryan McQuade and Jay Ledbetter attempt to breakdown, analyze, and ultimately, get inside the mind of some of cinema's greatest auteurs. In doing so, they will look at their filmographies, explore what drives them artistically and what makes their decision making process so fascinating. Add in a few silly tangents and a fun game at the end of the episode and you've got yourself a podcast we truly hope you love. On episode 97 of the Director Watch Podcast, the boys are joined by film critic Jesse Nussman to discuss the next film in their Peter Jackson series, Heavenly Creatures (1994). After making a name for himself as a horror director, Jackson took a different route for his next film, incorporating his genre sensibilities for a drama about a real life murder case in New Zealand. Centered around two young girls who become friends and a tight bond that is threatened by their parents, who find it stranger than your average friendship. In an attempt to be with each other forever, the two girls come up with a plan to run away, and in doing so, commit a heinous crime that shocked the entire country. By tackling this subject, Jackson was able to embody a magical realism to the entire film, particularly in the imaginative world the girls have built for each other, and in doing so, created a one of a kind bio-pic that is haunting and heartbreaking. Ryan, Jay, and Jesse breakdown their thoughts on the film, if running away was a good plan, the murder weapon used in the crime, the breakout performances for Melanie Lynskey and Kate Winslet as well as the different paths each actress took, Jackson's imagery in the dream world, if the extended cut adds anything new to the story, and how hard it is to find this film on streaming and physical media. You can listen to the Director Watch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music and more. This podcast runs 2h20m. The guys will be back next week to continue their series on the films of Peter Jackson with a review of his next film, The Frighteners. You can rent it via iTunes and Amazon Prime rental in preparation for the next episode of Director Watch. Till then, let's get into it.

As we close out Autism Awareness Month, Lisa opens up about her lived experience as a Black autistic woman, the daily exhaustion of navigating professional spaces not built for her, and why she created digital sanctuaries where Black women can finally breathe.

In the first chapter of 2 Peter, Peter gives the church practical application on how we are to confirm our calling and election. He reminds the church of the great precious gift that we have been given, the promise of eternal life. He then calls the believer to action, to be effective and fruitful for the kingdom of God. God has granted the believer everything they need to be fruitful for the kingdom of God.

In this powerful message, we dive into the simple yet life-changing truth that Jesus loves us. Centered around the beloved children's song "Jesus Loves Me," we explore how God's love stands apart from human love—unconditional, unwavering, and pure. Drawing from 1 John 4:8 ("God is love") and Romans 5:8, we are reminded that Christ loved us enough to die for us even while we were still sinners. This message challenges us to stop being harder on ourselves than Jesus is, to truly embrace God's grace, and to see ourselves through His eyes of love. If you need a fresh reminder of your worth and His incredible love, this one's for you!

This episode is a brief 2025 AEP Conference Recap for our podcast listeners and viewers! This year's gathering brought environmental professionals together at Zachari Dunes in Oxnard, California, in early April. Centered around the theme “Seeds of Change, Waves of Progress,” the conference offered a blend of insightful keynotes, dynamic breakout sessions, and meaningful networking opportunities.

In this episode, Dr. Sharon Spano speaks with entrepreneur and experience strategist Vinay Raval, who walked away from corporate life to answer a deceptively simple question: How do businesses grow by inspiring happiness in their customers? His journey led him across continents, from mountain markets to high-touch tourism in Peru, culminating in the development of his customer-first philosophy called “Bring the Extra.”Vinay dives deep into the human side of business, explaining how emotion—not just logic—drives customer loyalty, brand power, and employee retention. He also shares practical steps for making customer-centric strategy a tangible, impactful part of everyday operations.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why customer connection is no longer optional—it's your differentiator.How Vinay's global journey shaped his “Bring the Extra” philosophy.What it takes to create sensory, emotional, and lasting customer experiences.The real definition of “inspiring happiness” (Hint: It's not fluff).How customer emotions differ by culture and context, and why that matters.What brand essence is and how to embed it into every touchpoint.Why tactics (not just strategy) drive real customer loyalty.How small businesses can thrive in a post-COVID world with human-centric service.Why employee experience matters just as much as customer experience.Simple ways to improve your tech, digital presence, and in-person service to reduce friction.Transcript: HereConnect with Vinay Raval:LinkedIn: Vinay Raval – Growth Walla Website: Vinay RavalSharon Spano:Website: sharonspano.comFacebook: facebook.com/SharonSpanoPHDInstagram: instagram.com/drsharonspano/LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/sharonspano/Book: thetimemoneybook.comContact: sharon@sharonspano.comSubstack: substack.com/@drsharonThe Other Side of Potential Podcast: sharonspano.com/podcast/
In this episode, I share a real-life moment of being emotionally triggered after a phone call from my mother—and how that experience became the perfect opportunity to walk through the Receptivity Chart, a visual model I use in my coaching and retreats. Rather than getting stuck in reaction, I used this moment to check in with myself: Where am I on the chart? What's blocking my ability to receive guidance from Creative Intelligence? Our thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and old pain patterns—what Eckhart Tolle would call the “pain body”—can cloud our inner channel and disconnect us from flow. When I find myself blocked, I pause. I surrender to what's happening, speak about myself in the third person to get perspective, write it out, and ask: Do I still believe this? Is this mine, or something I inherited? These practices gently clear the static and return me to presence. If you'd like to follow along visually, you can download a copy of the Receptivity Chart under the Practice Guides tab at spiritualartisttoday.com. It's a powerful reminder that while we can't always control being triggered, we can choose how we return to alignment. At the end of this episode, CJ does a short guided meditation to ease you through a triggering experience. For more information on CJ, visit his website www.spiritualartistoday.com. His book, "The Spiritual Artist" is available on Amazon.

In this episode, Dean Newlund and Vishal Gondal discuss:How gamification influences long-term behavior changeShifting from reactive treatment to preventive healthcare modelsUnderstanding the gap between knowing and doing in healthThe role of AI in predicting and personalizing health interventionsExploring human purpose and spirituality in the age of AI Key Takeaways:Gamification works best when tasks are aligned with a person's skill level and progress is reinforced through small, consistent rewards.Most people already know what to do for their health, but the challenge lies in sustained motivation, not access to more information.The current healthcare system is incentivized to treat sickness instead of preventing it, which misaligns its goals with actual health outcomes.Artificial intelligence is enabling real-time, personalized health risk predictions that can guide users to make proactive lifestyle changes. "AI is going to force the healthcare system to transform, because now you no longer have to have a probability game—it's a predictability game.” — Vishal GondalConnect with Vishal Gondal: Website: https://goqii.com/in-enShow: The Awakening Code: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2gtuaqZASZ0ddMrBVq_CjkXqV9UvrhMYYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheAwakeningCodeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vishalgondal/X (Twitter): https://x.com/vishalgondalFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/VishalGondalOfficial/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vishygo/GOQii Smart Vital series: https://store.goqii.com/smartvital See Dean's TedTalk “Why Business Needs Intuition” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEq9IYvgV7I Connect with Dean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgqRK8GC8jBIFYPmECUCMkwWebsite: https://www.mfileadership.com/The Mission Statement E-Newsletter: https://www.mfileadership.com/blog/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deannewlund/X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/deannewlundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MissionFacilitators/Email: dean.newlund@mfileadership.comPhone: 1-800-926-7370 Show notes by Podcastologist: Hanz Jimuel AlvarezAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Are you carrying burdens you were never meant to carry? In this powerful Resurrection Sunday message, Pastor Donnie McClurkin invites us to encounter the love, rest, and redemption found in Jesus Christ. Centered around Matthew 11:28—"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest"—Pastor McClurkin reminds us that Jesus is meek, lowly in heart, and willing to exchange our heaviness for His peace. This sermon highlights the deep love of Christ, His hatred for what sin does to us, and His desire to see us healed, restored, and walking in freedom. His sacrifice wasn't just to forgive sin, but to end the cycle of shame, guilt, and condemnation. Jesus is not pushing us away—He's calling us closer, ready to heal what's broken and offer new life in Him.

In this episode of the Awesome Marriage podcast, Lindsay and Dr. Kim discuss the importance of resolving conflict in a faith-centered, biblical way. They debunk the myth that Christian couples do not experience conflict and emphasize that conflict can lead to growth and deeper intimacy in relationships. Learn the biblical principles for handling conflict, practical steps for effective communication, and the significance of humility and selflessness in marriage. Episode highlights include: Timeouts can help manage heated discussions. Keeping short accounts prevents resentment from building up. Using the silent treatment is a form of emotional manipulation. Bringing up past conflicts as weapons is unhealthy for marriage. Involving others in conflicts before addressing them with your spouse can create triangles of conflict. Taking responsibility for one's actions is crucial in resolving conflicts. Prayer is a powerful tool for maintaining a healthy marriage. Biblical principles provide a framework for resolving conflicts effectively. Couples Conversation Guide: Main takeaway: You will experience conflict with your spouse, and when you do it's important to keep the Lord at the center of the conversation. Remember your spouse is not your enemy and words shouldn't be your weapon. Acknowledge your part and be quick to forgive. Questions to Discuss: Which area of conflict resolution do you need the most help in- bringing up the past, resorting to the silent treatment, or taking responsibility for your part? Have you brought that struggle to the Lord and invited Him into the conflict in your marriage? QUOTES Conflict is normal and if done right can help our marriage grow. Even though we are both seeking to follow Christ, we are human. If your kids see you doing that, they want that, and it gives them security. Having a marriage that's not life-giving, can drain you so quick. It zaps your energy. When a couple is able to get past the things keeping them at odds, it goes beyond the marriage too. I can't meet all her needs, but God can. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Use our Marriage Boundaries Workbook to navigate tough conversations and hard seasons.

Hey friend—whether you're folding laundry, waiting in the school pickup line, or hiding out in the bathroom for a moment of quiet (we've all been there!), I'm so glad you're here. In today's episode, we're talking about something every Christian working mom wrestles with: How do you stay intentional and productive—without burning out? Spoiler alert: this isn't about waking up at 5am or sticking to a Pinterest-perfect routine. It's about slowing down, finding God's grace in the chaos, and discovering how to work from a place of peace rather than depletion. We'll walk through practical, faith-rooted ways to: Do less and actually get more done (yes, it's possible!) Use unfinished tasks to spark more focus and creativity Turn your scattered time into sacred moments of connection with God Build a productivity rhythm that aligns with your God-given wiring—not someone else's system This episode is for the mom who feels stretched thin, who's tired of unrealistic standards, and who wants to live a life that's more present, peaceful, and purpose-driven. In This Episode: [2:30] Why doing less might be your secret weapon to getting more done [5:00] The power of leaving things unfinished on purpose—and how it boosts clarity [7:30] How to transform small, scattered moments into sacred time with God [10:30] Why your unique rhythms matter and how to build a life around them [13:00] A reminder that your worth isn't tied to productivity—God's rest is a gift, not a reward Key Bible Verse: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 Try This This Week: Schedule one “holy pause” into your day—just 15 minutes to sit with God Embrace “good enough” in one area of your life and watch how freeing it feels Assign a spiritual practice to three small windows of your day (car line, brushing teeth, stirring dinner) Ditch one productivity rule that makes you feel like you're not enough—and replace it with grace #ChristianWorkingMom #GraceOverHustle #IntentionalLiving #FaithInTheEveryday #RestIsHoly #PeaceInTheChaos #MomLifeWithGod #JesusOverEverything #SoulCare #PresenceOverPerfection
