Supporting family and friends as a doula can be both rewarding and complex. The personal connection you share makes it easy to overstep boundaries, give unsolicited advice, or slip out of your professional role. Maintaining the balance between being a loved one and being a doula requires awareness, restraint, and compassion. It means stepping back from the more intimate role you usually play and intentionally working within the doula's scope of practice. In this episode, we talk about how to navigate these blurred lines while honoring the unique journey of the people closest to us. Just as we do with our clients, we must offer care, support, and guidance without judgment or assumption.  Join us for a thoughtful conversation on how to serve with integrity, maintain boundaries, and show up professionally when supporting those you love.

You might know St. John Paul II for Theology of the Body—but that's just scratching the surface. In this episode, Dr. Greg shares why JP2's deeper philosophy holds the key to understanding the human person today—especially in a world of AI therapy, psychedelics, and emotional confusion. Key Topics: Why relying solely on Aquinas isn't enough for addressing the psychological and spiritual needs of today The philosophical genius of St. John Paul II—and why he's more than just the "Theology of the Body pope" The critical difference between being a therapist who's Catholic and doing authentically Catholic therapy How personalism bridges timeless Church teaching with the complexities of modern life Why understanding subjective experience is essential for Catholic therapists, clergy, and educators How personalism offers a Catholic answer to postmodern relativism without losing objective truth Learn More: Theology of the Body for Beginners by Christopher West – A clear, accessible introduction to John Paul II's groundbreaking teaching on love, sexuality, and the human person. Love and Responsibility by Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II) – A philosophical deep dive into human dignity, attraction, and the true meaning of love.

(00:01) Teaching Golf Standards and Challenges This chapter features an engaging conversation with Brian Manzella, a renowned golf instructor who is highly ranked in both Golf Magazine's Top 100 Teachers and Golf Digest's Top 50 Teachers lists. We explore the challenges of finding a suitable golf teacher who can adapt to individual learning styles rather than enforcing a one-size-fits-all approach. Brian shares insights into the low standards in the golf teaching industry, contrasting it with other professions that require certifications. He reflects on his career choices and aspirations, and the conversation highlights the importance of having experienced and qualified instructors in golf. Brian's journey and thoughts offer a valuable perspective on the state of golf instruction today. (11:26) Standardizing Golf Instruction This chapter addresses the challenges and opportunities in the world of golf instruction, particularly focusing on biomechanics and communication within the PGA of America. I explore the contrasting methodologies between various biomechanics schools, such as Jacobs 3D and TPI, and question the potential for a unified approach. The conversation also critiques the communication skills in teaching, suggesting that studying successful educators could be more beneficial. I propose two actionable solutions to enhance teaching standards: first, requiring PGA instructors to upload a 30-minute lesson annually, which could foster transparency and inspire improvement; and second, initiating monthly Zoom meetings led by thought leaders, providing a platform for sharing knowledge and techniques. However, I acknowledge potential resistance due to fears of embarrassment and reluctance to showcase one's methods publicly. (19:16) Selecting the Right Golf Instructor This chapter explores how to cultivate emotional attachment to football games when you don't naturally support local teams, such as the Cincinnati Bengals or the Cleveland Browns. By placing bets on platforms like FanDuel, you can create a rooting interest, enhancing your enjoyment and engagement with the games. We also discuss the challenges and politics within the PGA of America regarding innovation and the reluctance to embrace new teaching methodologies due to potential backlash from established professionals. Finally, we address the confusion some might face when seeking golf lessons and how to find the right instructor to improve their game. (28:47) Establishing Standards in Golf Instruction This chapter explores the challenge of identifying great golf teachers and critiques the current system that often relies on reputation and word of mouth. We discuss the flaws in how professional golfers select instructors, noting that the same few teachers are recycled without necessarily being the best. There's a call for a more structured and standardized system to evaluate golf teachers, much like other professions have, to ensure quality instruction. We suggest that someone with a comprehensive understanding of golf instruction, like Brian, could lead an organization to establish fair and effective criteria for rating teachers. The conversation also touches on the need for better communication skills among instructors to improve how they convey their knowledge to students. (38:29) The Golf Instruction Industry Issues This chapter explores the cyclical nature of golf teaching trends and the resurgence of topics like the golfing machine and O'Grady's methodologies on social media platforms. We reflect on how these discussions have been extensively debated in forums and Facebook groups over the years, and yet continue to re-emerge with new generations. The idea of creating an archival system to document these recurring trends is discussed, emphasizing the need for a structured approach to preserving golf teaching history. Additionally, we analyze the influence of tour instructors and the fluctuation of their perceived credibility, noting that many gain prominence without having developed players from the ground up. The conversation also touches on the lack of dedicated media coverage for the golf teaching industry, suggesting that more consistent scrutiny could address ongoing issues and misconceptions. (50:08) The Future of Golf Instruction This chapter focuses on the future of the golf teaching business and how it can be improved. We explore the potential for customization in golf instruction, emphasizing the importance of tailoring lessons to individual players' needs. The conversation highlights the potential for increased visibility of personalized coaching through online platforms, allowing coaches to showcase their work with specific players. While AI is acknowledged as a transformative force, the discussion shifts to the shortcomings of golf telecasts, particularly the lackluster performance of current announcers. We discuss the idea of offering alternative commentary options, allowing viewers to choose more engaging and knowledgeable voices to enhance the viewing experience. The overall sentiment is that both golf instruction and telecasts have room for improvement, and there is hope for more personalized and entertaining approaches in the future. (54:42) Celebrating Golf Music Memories This chapter is all about having a good time with a nod to musical nostalgia and a touch of humor. We explore the joys of appreciating pickles and the fun of picking who you love, alongside a light-hearted mention of Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks, specifically their classic song "How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away." It's a mix of laughter and fond memories as we share this entertaining moment. Ryan and I have a great exchange, highlighting the fun and camaraderie of the group, while also playfully acknowledging the presence of cynicism. It's a heartfelt thanks to Ryan for joining us, as we wrap up another engaging session on Those Weekend Golf Guys. #GolfInstruction, #BrianManzella, #TeachingStandards, #PGAofAmerica, #Biomechanics, #Communication, #AdaptiveTeaching, #IndividualLearningStyles, #Certification, #InstructionalStandards, #AI, #PersonalizedCoaching, #GolfTelecasts, #MusicalNostalgia, #Camaraderie, #GolfCommunity, #GolfIndustry, #TeachingTrends, #GolfTeachers, #GolfMediaCoverage Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In January 2026, I'm bringing together a select group of conscious healers, coaches, and lightworkers… and teaching them how to: Tap into the Akashic Field of unconditional wisdom and healing on command Connect to a source of Divine Wisdom that can clear away limiting patterns and beliefs at the speed of light (without YEARS of talk therapy or endless “working on yourself” that doesn't create lasting change) Use the Akashic Records as a tool of QUANTUM HEALING to clear away your own “stuff” (fear, resistance, self-doubt, second-guessing, overthinking, overgiving) so you can confidently show up for your clients – and powerfully help them clear *their* stuff as well Turn on your deepest inner guidance and experience deeper states of flow, connection, and purpose – consistently Become a grounded, confident, effective Akashic Records Practitioner and help your clients get life-changing results, so they keep coming back and referring you to everyone they know If you're feeling the call of the Records – this is never by accident. It's because you have Soul-level work to do with the Akashic Records in this lifetime.  The more drawn you feel to the Records, the more likely it is you're meant to use them to (1) heal yourself and (2) assist others in their process of healing and evolution. The Records have been my steadfast companion, Divine Guide, and powerful compass through life for the past 20 years (I first opened my Records when I was 17). Over these 2 decades, they've helped me transform MAJOR stuff and supported me in aligning fully with my spiritual mission and sacred work in this lifetime. This mission, for me, includes making the Akashic Records an accessible and potent Divine tool – actually, a way of life – for healers, lightworkers, and spiritual seekers. This is why I created a one-of-a-kind, immersive Certification Program where we go deeply into the Akasha together.  I'll teach you everything you must know to effectively connect to the Records and use them as a tool of insight and healing not just for yourself, but for the people you're here to serve. The length and depth of this Certification – plus my commitment to offering you an unparalleled level of personal mentorship – enable each student to have a transformative experience and go on a journey of discovery about how you're meant to use the Akashic Records in this lifetime, to heal yourself and others. In our live meetings, there will be time to ask questions, do healing work together, and share your experiences in the Records. You'll also have ample time between meetings to practice the techniques and tools I'll be teaching you – and to connect with fellow students to exchange readings. I offer personalized feedback on all assignments, so you feel supported every step of the way. Interested in joining us?

Doula work often takes us on unexpected paths, and Eva's journey is a perfect example of how growth and change can come full circle. Eva began her career as an independent contractor, supporting families through labor and postpartum. Over time, she became a doula trainer, sharing her knowledge and experience with others entering the profession. Eventually, she joined Angela as a business partner at Tucson Doulas, helping to grow and shape the agency into what it is today. Now, after years of leadership and teaching, Eva has stepped back from training and agency ownership to return to her roots as an independent contractor with Tucson Doulas. Health and life circumstances can shift priorities, and her story is a reminder that evolving in birth work doesn't always mean moving forward; it can also mean coming home. Join us as we talk about Eva's journey, the lessons she's learned along the way, and how embracing change can bring renewed purpose and balance to a doula's career.

Scrupulosity isn't just “Catholic guilt gone too far”—it's a deeply painful form of OCD that can hijack your relationship with God. In this episode, Dr. Greg sits down with Stephanie Muncy, CatholicPsych's in-house expert (and someone who's lived it), to unpack what scrupulosity really is, how it distorts the spiritual life, and why the path to healing might look very different than you think.

Today I'm sharing something that's been coming up repeatedly in my work - a crucial insight about how we often misunderstand alignment in human design, and how this misunderstanding can actually keep us stuck.The Core Paradox:We think we need to avoid our "not-self" themes (frustration, anger, bitterness, disappointment) and focus only on our "signature" themes (satisfaction, peace, success, surprise). But this approach completely misses where the real transformation happens.The Four/Five "Not-Self" Themes:Generator/Manifesting Generator: FrustrationManifester: AngerProjector: BitternessReflector: DisappointmentHere's what most people miss: Your not-self theme is where all the magic is. It's not something to avoid or bypass - it's your access point to deeper alignment.Why This Matters:When you resist your not-self themes, you actually create more of what you're trying to avoid. This is the classic "what you resist persists" principle. If you're trying to force yourself into feeling satisfied while pushing away frustration, you're working against yourself.The real transformation happens when you can lovingly accept and work WITH the parts of you experiencing these not-self themes. This is the actual deconditioning work.All Themes Apply to All of Us:Even though you have a specific type in your chart, you'll likely experience all of these themes at different times. I'm a generator, but I resonate with all the signature and not-self themes across all types. We're a blend of all the archetypes - it's never black and white.The Real Work:Get curious about your not-self themes instead of judging themExpress these energies healthily (journaling, EFT tapping, movement, screaming into a pillow)Recognize that frustration, anger, bitterness, and disappointment all stem from the same root fears - not belonging, rejection, not being lovedCelebrate when these themes come up because they're showing you where transformation wants to happenA Personal Example:I recently went through intense frustration in my business - wanting to simplify, feeling like I didn't want to continue doing things the same way. Instead of pushing it away, I stayed with it. Now I've found my satisfaction again, with real clarity about what needs to change.The Invitation:Human design isn't here to label or limit you. It's an awareness tool showing you where you're not aligned SO YOU CAN work with those parts and become more aligned. The signature themes (satisfaction, peace, etc.) come naturally when you stop resisting the not-self themes.Information alone doesn't create transformation - it's the repeated practice of working with these aspects of yourself that leads to embodiment and real change.Intuitive Human Design Certification: https://analenafuchs.com/intuitive-human-design-certificationThe Intuitive Human Design Teacher Training & Certification starts October 22, 2025 (and the last day to enroll is November 5, 11am EST). This is where we do the actual work of applying these principles, going beyond information into real transformation - for yourself and you will feel confident doing insanely transformational chart reading and working with clients.This episode is essential listening for anyone working with human design who feels stuck trying to "be more aligned" or who's been beating themselves up for experiencing their not-self themes.#humandesign #manifestinggenerator #humandesigngenerator #humandesignprojector #humandesignreflector #humandesignmanifestor

This episode of JACC This Week, hosted by Harlan M. Krumholz, MD, SM, highlights key research and perspectives from the October 14, 2025 issue of JACC. It opens with a call to modernize physician certification by distinguishing core knowledge from clinical reasoning, emphasizing continuous, engaging learning over rote memorization. Featured studies in this week's issue include the cardiovascular risks linked to clonal hematopoiesis in older women, improved clotting outcomes with third-generation LVADs despite ongoing bleeding risks, and how dapagliflozin reduces heart failure events post-TAVI without improving perceived quality of life. The episode also explores inflammation as a target after myocardial infarction, the evolving role of drug-coated balloons in PCI, and cardiac CT's expanding use in prosthetic valve assessment—signaling a shift toward more precise, less invasive cardiovascular care. We also feature an article from JACC: Asia this week on cardiovascular Implications of lipoprotein(a) and its genetic variants in patients from the Middle East.

In this episode, I answer the most common questions about The Doctor Coach School™ certification—especially the new Entrepreneur Track. I walk through who it's for, how it's structured, why sales is a core competency (on purpose), and exactly what it takes to graduate. If you've been coaching informally or you feel called to do more than your current clinical role allows, this will help you see the full picture so you can make a confident decision.What we cover: What DCS is: A 9-month professional certification (with up to 18 months to complete) that trains transformational, belief-led coaches.Two tracks:Entrepreneur Track (now enrolling): for clinicians who want a coaching business or to integrate coaching into an existing practice.Leadership & Organizational Change Track (“Intrapreneur”—coming 2026): for those who want to drive change inside institutions.Who it's for: Clinical doctors (MD/DO, DDS/DMD, DPT, PharmD, PsyD/PhD—clinical, etc.) who are:Already the “go-to” person for coaching/advice and want mastery,Restless to help people directly (without bureaucracy), and/orReady to be paid for their purpose with rigor and ethics.What makes DCS different:Belief first — you become your first client (self-regulation, nervous system safety, embodied belief).Sales is a core competency — you'll learn ethical, high-converting sales and must sign at least one real client during certification.End-to-end transformation — you'll coach a real human from decision to result (not just peer practice).Structure & timeline:Phase 1: Coaching Self (8 weeks) — pre-recorded lessons, weekly live skills labs, peer + mentor coaching, reflection.Phase 2: Client Acquisition — story-selling, The Bridge framework, ethical sales calls, sales-call surgery, feedback. Goal: sign a client.Phase 3: Client Transformation — coach your client through your program using DCS methodology with ongoing support.Pace: Most complete in ~9 months; you have up to 18 months to finish depending on your program length and start point.Time commitment (typical week): ~4–6 hours (1–2h modules, live skills lab + mindset coaching, 1–2h peer coaching/reflection; in Phase 3, that time often becomes coaching your client).Support you get: Weekly skills labs, dedicated mindset coaching, mentor coaching, sales call feedback/surgery, marketing feedback, and ongoing check-ins so you don't disappear when life gets lifey.Evaluation & graduation: Ongoing observations, reflections, mentor feedback, and a final recorded session with your real client scored against ICF-aligned competencies and our internal rubric. If you miss the mark, you'll get targeted feedback and the chance to resubmit.Links & How to ApplyApply now: thedoctorcoachschool.com/applynowAdmissions helpline: 1-844-4-DCS-HELP (1-844-432-7435) — speak with an admissions agent and get your specific questions answered.Open House (live, recurring): Tuesdays at 8:00 PM ET and Thursdays at 12:00 PM ET.

Kate Stewart is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Occupational Therapy, Sargent College of Health & Rehabilitation Sciences, Boston University. She is an occupational therapist licensed with the Massachusetts Board of Allied Health Professions and is registered with the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy and the College of Occupational Therapists of Ontario. Kate has experience working with adults and older adults with diverse occupational performance and engagement issues across various settings, including acute care, inpatient rehab, community care, and mental health. Kate's clinical work has primarily focused on providing occupational therapy services at the individual level (i.e., via home care) and at the group/collective level (i.e., via community mental health advocacy and social policy work). Kate's scholarship emphasizes her interest in deepening our understanding of the occupational human to ultimately support individuals' capacity for everyday living. In service of this aim, she is interested in exploring the ways in which occupational therapists come to think like occupational therapists; that is, how occupational therapists reason through complex issues to best address the needs of clients.

Mark talks with Matt Oney about his introduction to modeling instruction and how he uses modeling methodology in the university setting. They talk about the importance of fostering, as opposed to squashing, the curiosity that all children have. Modeling instruction is designed to train students to use their curiosity to pursue answers, and students are engaged in that learning. Additionally, they discuss ways that teachers may be inadvertently killing students' curiosity. They talk about the importance of modeling the student-centered approach in the professional development that we offer to teachers because we want their classrooms to be student-centered. Guest Matt Oney Matt Oney is the Associate Director for Integrated Secondary Science at Michigan State University in the Center for Integrated Studies in General Sciences. His primary focus is on preparing future science educators. In addition, he is the College of Natural Science coordinator for the Certification in College Teaching Program. Matt earned master's degrees in plant biology and education from MSU. Prior to joining MSU as a faculty member, Matt was a high school chemistry and physics teacher in the Upper Peninsula. Highlights [2:33] Matt Oney: "what the myth busters are currently doing of just like taking these general curiosities that they have about the world and identifying ways that they can answer those curiosities. I was like, that's what I want my students to do. But I had no idea how to do that related to physics." [23:42] Matt Oney: "I would argue that all subject matters should be inquiry based and that our students should be learning through their own curiosities," [25:13] Matt Oney: "Learning is not necessarily, fun. It's challenging, but it's engaging. And we have such a huge responsibility to make sure that we are not killing the curiosity of our students." Resources Download Transcript Ep 73 Transcript

Certification exams increasingly reflect the IT OT convergence, acknowledging that many protections apply across both domains requiring holistic security approaches rather than siloed solutions. John France, CISO at ISC2, explains that as threats grow more complex, certifications, continuous learning, and diverse skills are essential to building a resilient global workforce.

In this special episode, I share my journey of creating the Intuitive Human Design Teacher Training & Certification and sit down with Dr. Marie Weitbrecht, one of my current certification students, to discuss her experience and transformation.My Journey as a Teacher:I've always been a natural teacher - even in school, I helped other kids with math and loved it. But I didn't know what I was here to teach until human design came into my life about five years ago. When I discovered it, something clicked - it felt like remembering rather than learning something new.What I quickly realized was that the way I understood and shared human design was vastly different from traditional teachings. Human design gave me permission to do things my own way, which was exactly what I'd been frustrated about in the entrepreneurial space - constantly trying to replicate other people's formulas and feeling like a failure when they didn't work.Why This Certification Exists:I noticed that human design was often being taught in ways that actually defeated its purpose - people were outsourcing their authority to the system rather than learning to trust themselves. I wanted to teach it in an expansive, empowering way that helps people tune into their own inner authority.The certification evolved further when I discovered true sidereal astrology (thanks to Marie bringing it to my attention!). Now the program offers both perspectives - tropical and true sidereal - so students can explore what resonates most authentically with them.Conversation with Dr. Marie Weitbrecht:Marie shares her experience taking the certification, including:Why she joined after already completing my previous certificationWhat makes this program unique - the active community and high-level discussionsHer transformation from constant stress to learning to decondition from societal pressureHow her reading style has evolved from "cookie cutter" explanations to intuitive, targeted sessionsWhy she feels confident using human design with her clientsKey Insights from Marie:"I've never seen such an active community in any course... it seems like everyone is on a pulse that is important, and that's very special.""I used to operate from stress maybe 80% of the time. Now I'm really deconditioning around pressure from outside, from society, from what I think other people want from me.""People actually just want help in what's bothering them - they don't need to understand every nitty-gritty detail of their chart."The Invitation:The next cohort of the Intuitive Human Design Teacher Training & Certification begins at the end of October 2025. This is a nine-month transformative journey (like birthing a baby!) where you'll go through your own deconditioning while learning to share human design in your unique, intuitive way.This isn't about memorizing information or giving cookie-cutter readings - it's about deepening your relationship with yourself so you can authentically guide others.If you feel a light, expansive sensation in your body right now, that's your invitation to explore this journey.

For over 15 years, Simply Technologies has been sneaking digital manufacturing into classrooms—one buzzing spindle and slightly terrified teacher at a time. So far, they've helped over 3,500 North American schools bring STEM to life in very real, very loud, very safe, and very hands-on ways.Their father-son company, Simply Technologies, has (unofficially but confidently) placed more CNC machines in schools than anyone else on the continent. They like to say they created CNC for teachers who didn't sign up for CNC—and it turns out, that's a lot of them.In September 2025 they launched Empower[ed] Academy—what they believe is the first-ever CAD/CAM/CNC Teacher Training & Certification program in North America. The goal is to help teachers confidently turn their students' “Imagination to Reality”—without having to Google “what's a post-processor” mid-lesson.On this episode, Steve and Jeremy share insights and stories from 15 years of classroom CNC success, and some practical tips and ideas that teachers can use the day after they listen to the episode.The founders of Simply Technologies Group Inc. in London, Ontario, Steve and Jeremy Stevenson, have worked within the digital manufacturing since 2009. As a father-son duo with deep industry expertise and a passion for innovation, they offer a diverse range of products, including CNC machines, CO2 laser systems, and GRIT Automation products. Beyond selling equipment, they are committed to education and support, providing in-depth training, technical assistance, and industry-leading resources to help customers get the most out of their investment, with the help of their support and training guru, David Logan.Connect with Steve & Jeremy:Website: simplytechnologies.xyz Empower[ed] Academy: learn.simplytechnologies.xyzInstagram: @simply.technologiesChris Woods is the host of the STEM Everyday Podcast...

Philanthropy and doula work are deeply connected. When your business is financially sustainable, you gain the freedom to give back in meaningful ways. Charging your worth does more than cover your expenses. It creates space to support your community through acts both big and small. Whether organizing diaper drives, quietly helping families in need, or donating resources to local organizations, a thriving business gives you the ability to make a lasting impact. Giving back should not come at the expense of your livelihood. By valuing your services and setting fair rates, you create stability for yourself while opening the door to generosity. Join us as we explore how sustainable business practices empower doulas to serve their clients, support their communities, and expand their influence beyond the birth room.

NA'ALEH YOGA: Yoga Nidra Journeys for Deep Rest Close Your Eyes and Stay Awake...   In this episode, I'm honored to speak with David Crowe, a seasoned acupuncturist and herbalist, about how deep rest practices like yoga nidra, body-based meditation, and botanical medicine work together to retrain the nervous system and support lasting healing. We deep dive into the practice of yoga nidra and discuss practical integration—simple herb-and-mindfulness routines for home—cautions around entheogens and trauma, and resources for continuing practice and study.   David's bio: David Crow, L.Ac., graduated from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 1984; he is a California state licensed acupuncturist and nationally certified by the National Commission for the Certification of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. He has been a clinician, consultant, researcher and educator for over 40 years, and is an expert in Chinese, Tibetan, Ayurvedic and Western herbal medicine. David was one of the first Westerners to train and be licensed in Chinese medicine, and one of the few to study Ayurvedic and Tibetan medicine in traditional internships in Nepal and India; he was also one of the first medical pioneers to use essential oils and aromatherapy in clinical practice, and to integrate these diverse modalities into comprehensive treatments. David has operated several clinics, including a practice in Kathmandu serving the Tibetan and Nepalese communities as well as international travelers, and practices in California in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Monterey, and in Ashland, Oregon. David currently serves people from all over the world through his telemedicine practice. David is a passionate medical researcher and educator of state-of-the-art herbal medicine, and an authority on the safe uses of herbs and essential oils. He avoids the popular trends of market-driven internet medicine and relies instead on documented research and traditional ethnobotanical wisdom and methods. David works in numerous herbal cultivation projects, including as the co-founder of The Learning Garden at Venice High School in Los Angeles, one of the first and oldest school gardens in the country. As an esteemed leader in the herbal and aromatherapy industry for more than 30 years, David has established unique access to the highest quality sources of products for his patients.   Here is where to find David: Website: https://www.crowconsultations.com   Subscribe to Na'aleh Yoga Podcast for more transformative journeys and feel free to share this podcast with a friend.

** Episode Sponsor: Google Trainer Academy: GoogleTrainerAcademy.com ** Over the past month I've been able to visit a half-dozen different schools across the US sharing tips and ideas for using AI in the classroom. While there are a LOT of AI tools available, there's one that I think is at the top of the list: Google Gemini. Gemini has become my go-to AI tool. It's fast, flexible, safe, and free! Using Gemini with your school account means you get advanced features AND data privacy that's not included with a lot of other applications (looking at you ChatGPT!). If you haven't used Gemini recently, take another look...there have been a LOT of update and several new features specifically designed for the classroom.

The future of workplace learning is changing. Instead of focusing on "what" to learn, the focus is now on "how" to learn. Jayney Howson, SVP of global learning and development at ServiceNow, says effective learning should be predictive, personalized, and available exactly when you need it — just like what happens when you watch Netflix.

Ordinary coaches hang out on Zoom. Trailblazers? They get in the room.

In this episode of From Pain to Possibility, I share what it means to shift from being a yoga teacher to becoming a healing facilitator. This isn't just about learning more cues, sequences, or anatomy. It's about reconnecting with why you were drawn to this work in the first place and learning how to integrate what you already know with new skills that truly support healing.   I talk about how precision, nervous system regulation, and integration help create lasting change, and why your own teaching voice and repeated phrases are clues to the model you're already building. You'll hear inspiring stories from trainees who combined their backgrounds in yoga, fitness, and healthcare into their own frameworks, and how this shift allowed them to create powerful results for themselves and their clients.

Send us a textCurious about coaching certifications? Let's cut through the confusion.Coaching is an unregulated industry - you can start coaching without formal training or credentials. Many coaches begin this way, learning as they go and serving clients effectively. However, there's a pattern we've observed repeatedly: uncertified coaches tend to hit growth plateaus quickly. Without structured frameworks, feedback mechanisms, and proper training, they struggle to advance their skills and expand their impact.The right certification doesn't just give you a piece of paper - it transforms your coaching practice from the inside out. It builds confidence through structured learning and feedback, creates clarity through proven frameworks, and establishes credibility that clients recognize. When evaluating certification programs, ask yourself: Does it align with your values? Will you receive personalized feedback? Does it include actual practice opportunities? Does it teach powerful, adaptable frameworks?What makes our approach different is our commitment to real-life instruction - increasingly rare in an era of pre-recorded videos. We believe in creating an immersive environment where you receive coaching while learning to coach others. This dual experience, combined with continuous peer feedback, elevates your skills to master level. We don't just teach coaching techniques; we guide you through becoming a coach. If you're feeling stuck or craving a solid foundation for your coaching practice, certification might be your breakthrough moment. Ready to take your coaching skills to the next level? Let's chat about what true transformation looks like.Interested in learning more about our Coaching Certification program?Visit us at: https://www.modernleadership.us/certification Want a personalized strategy session for free?

The Akashic Records provide us access into the QUANTUM FIELD - a space where consciousness is expanded, old wounds and patterns can be transmuted, and infinite possibilities open up. In this episode of INNER WORK, I share how some of my Certification students have experienced the Akashic Records and the transformative things that can happen as they work with the Records more deeply. This is also an announcement for early enrollment for my Akashic Records Certification Program. Next cohort begins January 2026.
