Welcome to the Leading Edge in Emotionally Focused Therapy, hosted by Drs. James Hawkins, Ph.D., LPC, and Ryan Rana, Ph.D., LMFT, LPC—Renowned ICEEFT Therapists, Supervisors, and Trainers. We're thrilled to have you with us. We believe this podcast, a valuable resource, will empower you to push the boundaries in your work, helping individuals and couples connect more deeply with themselves and each other. In this episode of “Push the Leading Edge”, James Hawkins and Ryan Rana dive into one of the most anxiety‑provoking parts of EFT: when the caregiving system red-lights right in the middle of beautiful vulnerability. Drawing on attachment theory and years of EFT training experience, they explore “caregiving nightmares”—those predictable moments when a partner can't respond with comfort, even when their loved one is wide open and reaching. They unpack how pursuers and withdrawers each bring their attachment strategies into the caregiving role: withdrawers often “loan out their avoidance” as a form of love, and pursuers “up the ante” as their way of fighting for the bond. Rather than shaming these moves or bypassing them to “get to the heart,” James and Ryan show how to move toward the blocks themselves as emotional material, validating the attachment logic inside them and using structured, attuned interventions to help partners reclaim their caregiving systems. With rich clinical examples, regulation strategies for therapists, and practical language you can use tomorrow, this episode helps you trust the process, trust the caregiving system, and stay with the red lights long enough for new attachment experiences to emerge. Main Points from the Episode Framing: “Caregiving Nightmares” & Red Lights  - Focus on stage 2 / step 6 caregiving positions, and the “back half” of vulnerable enactments.    - The “red light” is the blocked caregiving system: the partner can't offer simple comfort even when they want to. Predictable Attachment Patterns in Caregiving  - Withdrawers as caregivers:    - “Loan out their avoidance” or self-reliance: advice, positivity, “be comfortable in your own skin.”      - This is a form of love and responsiveness, but often misattuned.    - Pursuers as caregivers:      - “Up the ante”: test, push, or kick the tires on vulnerability (“it's just words,” “you only do this in here”).      - Driven by hope and fear of being dropped again. Therapist Regulation & Preparation  - Pre‑regulate before couples sessions; expect blocks as part of the process, not a failure.  - If the therapist dysregulates, you now have three protection systems in the room. Working with Withdrawer Red Lights  - Steps:    1. Regulate yourself.        2. Offer an attuned, assertive interruption (contain the cycle).        3. Give 3–5 concrete validations of the withdrawer's strategy as attachment‑driven care.        4. Reframe the strategy's attachment function (“this is how you love/protect”).        5. Then gently move toward the part that wants to reach.      - Don't bypass the strategy; work with it as emotional material. Working with Pursuer Red Lights  - Normalize that pursuers often lash out or test the first vulnerabilities they've begged for.    - Validate their vision, hope, and fight for the relationship (3–5 validations).      - Help them notice their somatic/empathic response to the partner's pain (1% of reach or comfort).      - Avoid shaming language like “you're going to your head.” Use of Numbers & Repetition  - “Magic” 3–5 validations to regulate a nervous system.    - Sue Johnson's idea: clients often don't really hear you until about the 5th repetition. Tourniquets & Sender Protection  - After a strong send + strong red light, layer tourniquets on the sender so they:    - Feel caught and not blamed.        - Are reinforced to risk again.      - Never make the sender give up their experience just to soothe the blocked caregiver. Trusting the Caregiving System  - Leanne Campbell's idea: trusting the process = trusting the caregiving system.    - People do know how to care; the cycle paralyzes access.      - Our job is to create conditions for that caregiving instinct to re‑emerge experientially. Hope, Respect, and Attachment Change  - Both pursuer protest and withdrawer avoidance are hopeful, survival strategies.    - Change often comes through “begrudging respect”: seeing a partner fight their old pattern for the relationship.

What does it actually mean to live a fulfilling life?Instead of trying to define fulfillment—which looks different for everyone—this episode uses a powerful mental model called inversion to clarify what not to do.Drawing from Charlie Munger's decision-making philosophy, Paul outlines four behaviors that virtually guarantee an unfulfilled life—and then flips them to reveal what fulfillment is really built on.

Every December 25th, around the world, happenings are quite different and diverse, place to place. Celebrating Christmas is unique to each culture, but the meaning of it all we share. In Norway, Christmas Eve is the main event with bells ringing at five in the evening, followed by family dinners.In Mexico, Christmas begins on December 16th, and on the ninth evening, Christmas Eve, children walk to the local church to place a figure of the Christ child in a manger.Like nature, God put wonderful color in our world family, and Christmas has its own traditions in diverse places. Yet in each heart, the Christ child is center. Luke 2:4–5 says, “So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth and Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem, the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child.” Wherever we celebrate, the baby in the lowly manger in Bethlehem calls to us through time. This season, reflect on that special night so long ago, and remember to give extra love to your family and friends. Let's pray. Lord, you love all people everywhere. Help us to do the same as we remember our brothers and sisters around the world at Christmas time. In Jesus' name, amen.  Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

In this special Christmas edition of Culture of Change, Ashe in America and Abbey Blue Eyes step back from the noise of the season to examine how modern Christmas traditions were shaped, commercialized, and detached from their original meaning. The conversation traces the evolution of Santa Claus from St. Nicholas through poetry, art, and advertising, including Coca-Cola's role in standardizing the modern image. From Elf on the Shelf culture and consumer pressure to historical perspectives on Easter, Christmas, and faith, the hosts explore how marketing, psychology, and social incentives reshaped religious observance. The episode then shifts toward deeper discussion on the birth of Christ, the historical credibility of the resurrection, ancient manuscripts, and why belief in the supernatural was once the norm rather than the exception. Thoughtful, reflective, and grounded in history, this episode refocuses the season on faith, truth, and the reason Christmas matters.

Send us a textWhat happens when you change one word in the title of a classic Christmas hymn? A new perspective and a fresh reason to dive into Scripture. This week's song, “O Come, All You Unfaithful” by Sovereign Grace Music, invites us to consider the people God included in the Christmas story—and how we are just like them.This song flips the script on who is invited to come and see what God has done. Instead of calling the faithful to gather in celebration, it beckons the weary, the broken, and the unfaithful—the ones who feel disqualified. That single word change in the title opens the door for us to explore the heart of God revealed in Scripture: a God who draws near to the weak and the waiting, the guilty and the hiding, and offers hope through Christ's birth.Key PointsThe opening line of this song—“O come, all you unfaithful”—offers a perspective shift worth exploring.The lyrics list characteristics that mirror real people in the Christmas narrative: Weak and unstableBarrenWaitingWeary of prayingBitter and brokenFears unspokenGuiltyHidingGod included these kinds of people in His redemption story—and He invites us too.Hosea's prophecy reminds us of God's faithfulness despite our unfaithfulness.We are unfaithful until we are redeemed by the Faithful One—Jesus.Scriptures ReferencedMatthew 1–2 and Luke 1–2 (Christmas narrative)Luke 1:5–7; 11–20 (Zechariah and Elizabeth)Luke 2:8–9; 25; 38 (Shepherds, Simeon, and Anna)Matthew 1:18–20; 24 (Joseph's obedience)James 2:5 (God chooses the poor)Hosea 2:16–20; 6:3; 6:6–7 (God's steadfast love and faithfulness)BITEs (Bible Interaction Tool Exercises)Read in context—Matthew 1–2 and Luke 1–2Read aloud—alone or with a friendShare with a friend—Share Scripture with someone over coffee and Christmas cookiesCompare and contrast—Compare and contrast God's faithfulness with the faithlessness of His people in Hosea's prophecy Remember, the people in Scripture were real—just like usAdditional ResourcesDownload the free Episode GuideLyrics - New Release TodayBible Interaction Roadmap Bible Study - videos and assignments that will equip you with habits you can use over and over in your own Bible Study - Learn MoreLearn more about my favorite Bible Study Software with a 30-day free trial and links to my favorite Bible resources - Logos Bible Software Affiliate LinkThis Week's ChallengeRead Matthew 1-2 and Luke 1-2.

Celebrating Christmas with family and friends is a great time of the year, but do we know how all this started? This observance of the holiday? We're pretty sure Jesus wasn't born on December 25th. There are clues in scripture that put the date more in the springtime. In ancient times, the winter solstice occurred on December 25th. Sometime early in the 4th century, the church fathers set the date as the one we now celebrate. Even factoring in the diverse cultures around the world, Christmas is celebrated on every continent close to the same time for everyone. It's pretty much agreed that our present day celebrations have their origins in pre-Christian, Christian and secular festivals, and there's some debate about what is and isn't appropriate.However, for the believing Christian, the season is truly all about the birth of our Savior. No matter where you live or how you choose to celebrate, the scarlet thread of Christ's birth and sacrifice that runs through scripture is the tie that binds. Let's pray.Lord, it has been said that we can keep Christmas in our hearts. We thank you for sending your Son as the ultimate gift to mankind. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

Auburn football fans are seeing transfer portal announcements roll in — and for some, the panic button is getting close. But this episode is about taking a breath and looking at the bigger picture. Portal season is a two-way street, and Auburn is far from finished. We break down why these departures don't spell disaster, how the upcoming portal window gives Auburn a real chance to upgrade talent and fit, and why a culture reset was not only inevitable, but necessary for the program's future. Change is uncomfortable, but it can also be the foundation for something better. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Trust is low. Change is constant. And leaders everywhere are feeling the pressure to keep it all together while navigating layoffs, AI disruption, cultural challenges, and nonstop external noise. In this episode of The C-Suite Mentor, Theresa Cantley shares a powerful six-part framework to help leaders stay above the line, close the execution gap, and thrive—without burning out or losing themselves in the chaos. Drawing from real conversations with clients, mentors, and lived experience, Theresa explains why leadership today isn't about proving yourself—it's about clarity, intention, and how you show up when everything feels uncertain. If you've been questioning yourself as a leader, feeling overwhelmed, or stuck reacting instead of leading, this episode will help you reset your focus, reclaim your confidence, and move forward with purpose. Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to The C-Suite Mentor 02:15 – Why trust is at an all-time low 06:10 – Navigating layoffs, AI, and economic uncertainty 10:20 – The danger of reacting instead of leading 14:45 – Stop trying to prove yourself as a leader 18:30 – The "dirty lake" analogy and toxic environments 22:10 – Framework overview: How to stay above the line 23:00 – Aim & implementation: Bridging the execution gap 30:40 – Learn, don't lean: Conscious consumption 38:15 – Dream vs. drama in leadership 45:10 – Clarity, conviction, and reflection 53:00 – Leading with intention and influence 59:30 – The power of your circle and community 1:07:00 – How leaders truly thrive in today's world 1:11:30 – Final reflections and next steps Key Takeaways • You don't need to prove yourself—leadership starts with knowing who you are • External chaos doesn't define you; how you respond does • Clear aims and daily implementation prevent overwhelm • What you consume mentally shapes how you lead • Great leaders focus on the dream, not the drama • Clarity and conviction eliminate toxicity • Intention determines the energy and influence you bring • The right community accelerates growth; the wrong one drains it Listener Prompt / Call to Action Which of the six principles stood out to you most—and why? Take a moment this week to reflect: Are you leading above the line, or reacting to the noise around you? If you're ready to go deeper, book a virtual coffee with Theresa to get clear, actionable steps to move forward with confidence.

This episode is part of The Things We Carry, a solo series shaped by the themes that stay with me long after the conversations on The Life Shift. Today I am talking about those disorienting moments when the life you have been living suddenly feels unfamiliar. The pieces stop fitting together. The story you have been telling yourself begins to crack. And you find yourself standing in the in between, unsure of what comes next. In this reflection, I talk about confusion as part of the process, not a sign that something is wrong. Change is rarely neat or straightforward. It often begins in the fog, in the exhaustion, in the quiet moments when you realize you cannot keep pretending everything is fine. Sometimes clarity arrives only after the breaking open. Sometimes it comes through rest, or release, or the small permission to stop holding everything together. If you are in a season where nothing feels clear, I hope this episode gives you a softer place to stand. You do not need a full map. You do not need to rush the unfolding. It is enough to notice what is shifting inside you and trust that clarity often grows from confusion, one moment at a time.

The edge that built you does not disappear when you succeed. In today's episode, Kevin and Alan cut through surface-level self-improvement and speak to what actually sustains growth over decades, not months. Drawing from hard-earned experience, leadership patterns, and thousands of conversations, they examine the subtle mindset shifts that either sharpen discipline or quietly weaken it as life improves. This is a grounded conversation about standards, responsibility, and who you become when no one is watching. If you care about long-term success, personal development, and leadership that holds up under pressure, this episode matters. Press play, then decide whether you are still living like your future depends on it._______________________Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

The Weary World Rejoices | Waiting on the World to Change by Collective Church

Born to Change the World | Week 3 | The Plan of Christmas | Pastor Tyler Sollie | Life Center Tacoma The miracle that CHANGED the WORLD didn't arrive without CHALLENGE Matthew 1:18-25 (CSB) God doesn't AVOID the MESS, He ENTERS it. Fully trusting God's PLAN requires fully trusting God's CHARACTER. SUBMISSION to God's plan requires a SERVANT'S HEART. Luke 1:38 (CSB) Matthew 1:25 (CSB) THIS story has the power to change YOUR story!

How to Choose or Change a Church is a bold, Scripture-driven teaching for believers living in the final days of increasing deception, compromise, and apostasy within the visible church.Video available on your choice of (5) Video Platforms accessible at https://www.lastchristian.net immediately upon release at 9:00pm ET/8:00pm CT.As cultural pressure intensifies and biblical truth is increasingly softened, redefined, or outright rejected, Christians are facing a critical question: Are we sitting under faithful biblical teaching—or remaining in places that have drifted from the authority of God's Word?This powerful 4-segment episode begins with a concise Week in Review of major world events, examined through a Christian lens, highlighting global instability, attacks on biblical truth, pressure against Israel, economic uncertainty, and the rapid rise of apostasy. From there, the program transitions into a deep, verse-rooted examination of what Scripture itself says about the church, doctrine, leadership, and separation from error.This episode answers questions many believers are quietly asking but rarely hear addressed from the pulpit:• Is it biblical to leave a church?• What doctrines are non-negotiable?• How do we test pastors and leadership biblically?• What does Scripture say about unity versus truth?• When does staying become disobedience?Grounded entirely in the error-proof Word of God, this teaching makes clear that loyalty belongs to Christ alone, not institutions, traditions, or denominations. It calls believers to discernment, courage, and obedience in an age where truth is increasingly unpopular.This episode is not about church-hopping or personal preference. It is about faithfulness to Scripture, protection of your family, and obedience to Christ in the last days.If you are serious about following Jesus according to the Bible, not culture, this episode is essential listening.For more information or to support our ministry please visit https://www.lastchristian.net/

What if the biggest driver of self-improvement is the one thing you barely notice while it's working?In this episode, Kevin and Alan draw from their own years of daily execution, coaching, and thousands of recorded conversations to explain why personal development shapes consistency and decision-making long before results appear. They share how looking back at earlier versions of themselves revealed the real impact of small, repeated habits and disciplined inputs. This is a grounded conversation about awareness, identity, and why progress often only becomes obvious in hindsight.Audit your daily inputs. They are quietly building the person you will have to live with._______________________Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Paul Whitten, a combat veteran and founder of Nashville Adventures, to talk about mental health, identity after military service, and how storytelling becomes real-world therapy. Paul breaks down how getting out of an “echo chamber” of pain. Through community, purpose, and structured routines. Helped him move through injury, survivor's guilt, and burnout. They also go deep on bootstrapped entrepreneurship, why service-based businesses fight harder for visibility, and how learning the basics of ROI, marketing, and leadership can protect your mental wellness while scaling. If you are dealing with burnout, trauma, or feeling stuck in survival mode. This conversation gives a practical roadmap: small acts of service, honest storytelling, and habits that actually hold when life gets chaotic. About the Guest: Paul Whitten is a combat veteran, returned Peace Corps volunteer, former UK Parliamentary Fellow, and the founder of Nashville Adventures, a veteran-owned walking tour company known for immersive storytelling and historical accuracy. His work centers community impact, including giving back to veteran-related causes, and building a business culture shaped by lessons from both great and terrible leadership. Key Takeaways: Storytelling can be a mental health tool. It pulls you out of rumination and into meaning after trauma or burnout. If you are stuck in an echo chamber of pain. Change the room. Volunteer, teach, guide, or join a community that meets you with a blank slate. Routines beat “mindset hacks”. Paul rebuilt momentum through physical therapy, museum tours, then consistent learning. Service is a bridge out of isolation. Giving respect and appreciation often brings it back, which steadies your nervous system. Bootstrapping is stressful. But naive optimism helps you start before fear talks you out of it. Entrepreneurship is priorities and ROI. Learn the basics. P&L, balance sheet, marketing fundamentals. Knowledge compounds fast. Learn from bad leadership too. Paul used painful corporate lessons to build a healthier culture and customer experience. Keep work fun enough to sustain. If it feels like a toxic job, burnout shows up fast. Grinding is the differentiator. Not IQ, not credentials. Consistency turns skeptics into competitors. Micro challenge. Write one tough chapter in 10 minutes, share one honest piece with someone you trust, do one small act of service this month.

This is the last episode in this main series of A History of England. I may add others on specific topics – by all means use the comments to suggest any you'd like me to examine – or in response to interesting new developments.This episode looks at what has happened since the 2024 election. There's been a rise in xenophobia that sometimes shades into outright racism. A party of the hard right, Reform UK, is leading in the polls. Labour, in office though perhaps not in power, seems to have lost its sense of direction and has been pandering to Reform UK's views in the hope of winning back voters it has lost to them, with little sign of success so far. Indeed, its own standing just keeps sliding downwards.After that, I recap the series, from the days of Henry VIII, showing how England grew from a minor state on the edge of Europe to a leading power. Then, having pushed through the union with Scotland to form Great Britain, it became the ruling power of a major global empire. However, while the empire enriched a minority of people back home, it left the mass of the people in poverty, often in misery. Imperial wealth made individuals rich but not society as a whole.The twentieth century saw the empire collapse and British society become much more equal. In need of a new role, Britain tried being the partner of the United States and also a major member of the European Union. But the ‘special relationship' with the US seems pretty well dead in the water now and, in a major self-inflicted wound, the Brexit vote of 2016 took Britain out the EU. Now with a growing menace to the whole continent, including Britain, from Russia, the Starmer government is trying to put together new alliances without confronting its right-wing critics by working to rejoin the EU. Together with the anti-immigration stance it's taking to try to woo Reform UK voters back, that policy is making a return to economic growth more difficult than ever. That only stokes the grievances felt by many at home, encouraging the hard right further.Britain seems to caught in a dilemma of its own making. The Starmer government has adopted policies that are making things worse not better. Sadly, the logic of its position means it can't change those policies.Change though, and not the kind of change Reform UK proposes, is desperately needed to get Britain out of the mess that England has led it into.Quite a dilemma, as I said.Illustration: The British bulldog confused about the way forward.

Nobody is going to believe in you as much as you will, know that good things will happen.3. Change is inevitable. Change is going to happen so you can either accept it and keep moving forward or not.Please bet on yourself and go after your dreams because your life can be better than you ever thought it could be if you do

In today's episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge the common belief that commitment is about motivation or willpower. They explain why real consistency comes from removing exit options before pressure shows up.Drawing from thousands of episodes and years of coaching, they break down the difference between being interested and being committed, and how identity, standards, and decision-making shape long-term personal development. This conversation focuses on raising your minimums, sustaining progress without perfect conditions, and building a level of commitment that holds when energy is low and no one is watching._______________________Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

“Take what resonates, add your own magic and swipe left on the rest.” –Heather Dressel Winter calls us inward, but the world can be noisy. What if you could get quiet enough to hear your inner guides? I'm so excited to have Heather Dressel — I call her the intuition whisperer — back on the show.We tend to love spring and summer, the energy of creation and productivity. Winter can look so still and lifeless, but so much is percolating under the snow — and within. Tending to our winter energy can lead to greater growth.That said, there is a lot to distract us from that this time of year. Add to that the programming deeply ingrained in most of us to keep pushing and striving all the time. Learning to get quiet and go inward can be challenging — even if it is appealing to you. We talk about: How going inward can feel amazing for introverts and the need to balance that with emergingBeing gentle with yourself as you learn to get quiet — it's okay if it's uncomfortableForgetting about all or nothing and remembering our ability to begin again and againGetting curious to shift practices that aren't working in a particular seasonTuning into your inner guiding voice, not your inner mean girl squad and learning to trustTools — like music and oracle decks — to help you tap inABOUT HEATHERHeather Dressel is the founder of Divinely Sensitive and the Hear Her podcast.

How to nurture the best in people with consistency and be remembered for what matters. This is going to be a different episode about a cake my nan used to make. But isn't just a story about cake. It's about the difference between control and nurture. My school thought resilience came from forcing kids to clear their plates (even if they ended up vomitting). They were wrong. My Nan knew that real strength comes from consistency. She made me the same pineapple upside-down cake every time I visited for a decade. Even when she went blind, she kept creating. She was an entrepreneur, an artist, and the village baker. She taught me that you don't build character by breaking someone's spirit. You build it by showing up. By paying attention. By finding the one thing they can stomach and giving it to them again and again. Nurture over control: You get more out of people by supporting their quirks than forcing compliance. Consistency is love: Showing up the same way for years builds more trust than grand gestures. Create despite limits: My Nan went blind and kept making things; focus on what you can do. Listen to learn how a simple cake became a masterclass in leadership and love. SPONSORS

In this special end-of-year episode, Kat and April sit down for a heartfelt and honest conversation reflecting on the journey of Moms Off the Record: how it began, how it evolved, and what it has meant to both of them and the community it grew.This episode also marks a meaningful transition. After years of co-creating MOTR together, April shares her decision to step away as a co-host, with Kat moving forward as the sole host and steward of the podcast. The conversation is rooted in gratitude, clarity, and mutual respect with an honoring of seasons, growth, and the courage it takes to listen when an assignment shifts.Together, Kat and April reflect on favorite moments, impactful conversations, and the many messages from women who have shared how MOTR helped them feel less alone, more confident in their intuition, and more empowered to question the narratives surrounding modern motherhood.This episode is two parts a look back and a blessing moving forward with the reminder that growth often asks us to release what we love in order to make room for what's next.Thank you for being part of this chapter. WE LOVE YOU!

Christmas tree fires are frightening, but they're not the leading cause of house fires in the U.S. What's surprising is how many fires start from everyday habits and household choices most people never think twice about. This episode begins with a look at several common yet overlooked causes of home fires. Source: https://www.bobvila.com/articles/fire-safety/#.Viz3ILerTIU We alter our own memories far more than we realize. We forget details, highlight the good parts, and unintentionally distort events over time. Now scientists are exploring how to deliberately modify specific memories — softening painful recollections and strengthening positive ones. Steve Ramirez explains how memory really works and where this groundbreaking research is headed. He is an associate professor of psychological and brain sciences at Boston University, a TED speaker, and author of How to Change a Memory: One Neuroscientist's Quest to Alter the Past (https://amzn.to/3KFiLJp). Wildlife encounters seem to be increasing — bears on porches, coyotes in yards, bobcats strolling down suburban streets. Are these animals getting more comfortable with humans? Are we building into their territory? And what should you actually do during a close encounter? Randi Minetor, author of more than 90 books including The Bear at the Bird Feeder: Why We're Seeing More Wild Animals in Our Neighborhoods and How We Can Live in Harmony with Them (https://amzn.to/4pHy5UM), offers insight and practical advice. Seeing flashing police lights in your rearview mirror is enough to make anyone nervous. Once you're pulled over, what should you do — and just as important, what should you not do — when the officer approaches your window? We wrap up with key tips to help keep the encounter calm and trouble-free. Source: https://www.aamva.org/law-enforcement/what-to-do-when-stopped-by-law-enforcement PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!

We're closing out our 10-part Wellness Series with a conversation that couldn't feel more fitting. Today's guest is my friend Brad Stulberg, who returns to the podcast to talk about his new book, The Way of Excellence: A Guide to True Greatness and Deep Satisfaction in a Chaotic World. I read this book over the past couple of months and finished it on the plane heading to a busy week of interviews at the running event, and I genuinely felt more grounded and prepared because of it. Brad has been on the show many times, and I always leave our conversations with tangible takeaways for how to live and lead better. He's the author of The Practice of Groundedness, Master of Change, Peak Performance, and The Passion Paradox, and he brings such a thoughtful, practical lens to ambition, growth, and fulfillment. In this episode, we talk about caring deeply, the inevitability of failure, and why caring, even when it opens us up to heartbreak, is still worth it. We also touch on goal setting as we head into a new year and how to think about excellence in a way that's sustainable and meaningful. I hope you love this conversation as much as I did and that it leaves you feeling encouraged as we wrap up this series. Check out Brad’s work and pre order his newest book at BradStulberg.com What we talked about: December as a natural season for reflection, and the tension of “ramping down” while launching something big The Way of Excellence and how excellence can be a mindset you practice, not just an outcome you achieve “Brave New World” as a fear-to-curiosity reframe for big moments (races, interviews, parenting, hard lifts) Curiosity vs fear, and why curiosity helps you perform better (and feel better) under pressure Caring deeply as the cost of stepping into the arena, and why “too cool to care” is actually insecurity Excellence as heartfelt (not robotic) and a critique of “pseudo excellence” culture and optimization obsession Cold plunges and “hacks”: what's legit, what's hype, and when hard things are useful vs unnecessary Identity and the “house with rooms” metaphor (runner, parent, creative, partner) so one setback doesn't collapse your whole sense of self Reading vs short-form video for attention, cognition, and emotional health, plus habits that support focus New Year goals: why resolutions fail, and how values-based goal setting helps you climb the right mountain Sponsors: Eternal This entire Wellness Series has been made possible by Eternal, a science-backed preventative health company for people who take their health and training seriously.
