Podcasts about Checking Out

In this episode of the Get Out of Debt Guy podcast, I answer a powerful listener question from a 71-year-old semi-retired filmmaker who's buried in $30,000 of credit card debt. After losing income from DVD sales, he's now fielding calls from debt relief companies offering to settle or consolidate his debt—but something doesn't feel right.We talk about how to spot red flags in the debt relief industry, including fake law firm branding, misleading promises, and manipulated review sites like Trustpilot. If you're wondering whether you can trust a company to handle your debt—or if you've been targeted by companies offering to "erase your debt" with no mention of the risks—you'll want to hear this.I share the key questions to ask before signing up for any debt solution, especially if you're a senior on a fixed income. I also point you to my free resource, The Ultimate Consumer Guide to Checking Out a Debt Relief Company, and explain why sometimes the right path isn't the most advertised one.This episode covers:How debt settlement companies often market to seniors in financial crisisWhat those five-star reviews really mean (and how to spot fake patterns)Why declining income years demand a different financial strategyWhat options are actually available when you're over 70 and deep in debtWho I personally trust to help people find the right solution for them

In this episode, Dan reveals that he filled 60 notebooks only for them to be washed away in a flood. He could have mourned this, but instead chose to see it as closure to a past era. Mike shares a similar experience where he threw away every box he had after his divorce. These are life changing moments, where one radical act of letting go, either by nature or by choice, transformed both Dan's life and Mike's life. Dan discusses how high achievers struggle with overcoming what seem like small obstacles to many because their attachment to a vision isn't linked to a measurable, realistic goal. Their vision in general, be it perfection or manufactured by someone else, may not even be “real.” And this can be tragic, and in some cases, fatal. One of the most transformative decisions we can make in our lives is to let go of our attachments to the past, and use obstacles as an opportunity to grow. Key Takeaways: 1.

Do you know that there is a parenting challenge that is so normalized, so expected, so talked about that there's ever a chance that you would've known this stage before you even became a parent, and even before you had children, just accepted that this is a challenge you will face that you didn't really give it much thought after that?We have normalized the idea that parents will be sidelined, no longer relevant to their teenagers and even to their tweens. We have normalized it to the point where parents now take it for granted. They stop knocking. They think their child doesn't want them to knock, and instead they wait. They accept.In this episode, we will be:encouraging you to check in instead of checking out your teenager, your tween guiding you to let them find their place in the world without interfering or controlling themhelping you to let them individuate while still being able to stay connected with youmaking sure that our children or our teenagers have the freedom that they need Got any questions?

"1. Denial Denying we could ever have racist thoughts, or that we reap the benefits as a member of the majority race, is a common defense of liberal White Americans. By denying the existence of our racist thoughts, we negate the depth of the racial divide. “But I don't even see color.” As if by being “colorblind” we can resolve the racial pain people of color live out. Pendler and Beverly note, “An inability to be open to the possibility that the experience of the other could be valid is a consistent element of white supremacy.” 2. Shame and Hurt When focus remains on the White person, and our emotional wounds, this is classic deflection and redirection. “I'm so embarrassed I said that!” This common phrase can be heard when something hurtful may have been said to a person of color. The truly injured party, however, remains unrecognized. By having the courage to confront a racial slight, a person of color is made to feel that they have misread us, or hurt our feelings. We might also say: “I'm hurt that you think of me like that.” This further draws the attention back to us, and away from the real issue of pain felt by the person of color. When sympathy transfers to the white person, no awareness or learning occurs. No trust is built. Try this next time you're confronted with something insensitive: “I hear how my words or actions hurt you. Thank you for pointing that out to me.” 3. Checking Out and Ignorance Shutting down or going blank is a common symptom of white fragility. Racism retains a foothold when white people reach a threshold in their racial sensitivity and invoke their white privilege to “check out,” and go silent, instead of sticking out the racial awareness process. The other side of that coin is simply to choose ignorance. “I had no idea about that!” You're feeling of being clueless leads to detachment. The responsibility to look inward is traded for making the person of color “assume the responsibility for bringing cultural and racial awareness to the surface.” 4. Masochism When a white liberal's guilt runs amuck, it may become a deep-seated need to take his or her racial lumps. Taking the neighborhood's homeless black man in for a meal may help him, but does the giving come from a place of joy or guilt? What happens when he steals from you? In retrospect, was your original act helpful or masochistic? Perhaps a $10 donation on the street might have served both of you better. White liberals, who unconsciously seek self-punishment for historical oppression, appear racially sensitive. But they actually perpetuate racism by simply becoming “a receptacle for potential and actual abuse,” instead of examining their racially-biased behavior. 5. Apology and Faux Compassion “I'm so sorry. I feel your pain.” This is an example of a deflective technique many white people use to draw attention away from an initial, biased encounter. Again, not taking time to look inward stops short of sincere sensitivity. Pendler and Beverly comment, “While displaying empathy toward another is often associated with an act of connection, the speed with which white people rush to express sympathy and understanding, at the expense of acknowledging their participation in racist behavior and ideology, discourages a deep relational connection in the moment.” Basically, don't apologize first. Try this instead: “I'm here to listen and learn.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/support

When something terrible in the world happens that isn't directly happening to us, we have a choice. We can look away, deciding it's too much pain to take in and feel. Or, we can keep looking, deciding to let the pain of the world pierce our hearts and let it be a call to action.If you're someone for whom taking in the pain makes it too much for you to get through your days with at least some moments of peace, you must find the middle way. The middle way means avoiding the extremes in life. Life is always going to be full of polarities. Contrast and complement are crucial to living. No light without dark. No joy without pain. We must practice the middle way if we're going to make it through this world; our horrible, gorgeous, profane, sacred, fucked up, perfect world. We can't look away. But we can't let the looking destroy us. In this episode, Jessica talks about ways that we can strike this balance, including choosing wisely how you get your information and how to get curious about what other food you're giving your head. She includes resources to help and reminds you that even the smallest donation still makes a difference toward alleviating suffering. She shares some things you can do to feel less helpless, hopeless, and immobilized.   And also includes her belief that taking breaks can be a part of essential boundary setting; that it can refresh you and helps you to get back into the world with more generosity.  Links for helping Afghan refugees: No One Left Behind: https://www.nooneleft.org Chartering flights and helping with Special Immigration Visas (SIVs) International Refugee Assistance Project: http://www.refugeerights.orgProviding legal resources for Afghan refugees  Together Rising: https://www.togetherrising.orgPresently giving donations to Women For Afghan Women (WAW)  @womenforafghanwomen on IG, who are working around the clock in Kabul to provide emergency services and continue crucial programs for Afghan women, children, and families. ******The One Day You Finally Knew: For Women Breaking Away podcast is produced and edited by Jessica Chasnoff,  a recovering perfectionist who is always on a learning curve.  While she is a psychologist, this podcast is not a substitute for mental health services.

Many Millennials are at a point in their lives where they're thinking about having or are already having babies.  The thought of having children while managing a full workload as a lawyer can be stressful because, lets face it, being a parent is a full time job on its own.  So if you're considering starting a family, are currently pregnant, or already have a kiddo, what can you be doing right now to best prepare yourself for parenthood while also running your law practice? I'm joined by Family Law attorney and Certified Family Law Specialist in Redondo Beach, Ca, Lovette Mioni. Lovette runs her own law practice and along with her husband, is raising two young children. She joins me to talk about how having children affected her business and changed her view of how she wanted to practice. She talks to me about what she had to do to prepare her assistant and those she worked with to carry on with office work while she was on leave and what she did to manage her client's expectations while she was unavailable.

Are you inching closer and closer to burnout? Be honest! You might be. It's fairly common for high achievers to burn out, especially if they're not taking care of themselves physically and mentally. That's what happened to me at the end of last year, 2018, when I found myself facing a breakdown of the sort I've never experienced before. I had been busy trying to grow my business for two years that I drove myself into the ground. Luckily, I discovered meditation and yoga right at the 11th hour. In this episode, I share a personal story about how I how I spent 2 years building a business that led me to a breakdown, the one thing I did that proved to be a breakthrough, how I became 10% happier, and how you can too.

We are living in a DIY world and lawyers can no longer be protective of their old ways of practicing law. Consumers are turning online for legal answers and many even go to YouTube to get help. This is a good sign for lawyers looking to fill a gap in the market by providing help to consumers who don't need full representation but instead, require help with a specific aspect of their legal matter.  That's why I wanted to explore the world of limited scope representation.  This conversation will shed light on the growing appeal of limited scope representation, especially for lawyers who are seeking an alternative way of practicing law. Joining me are Brooke Moore and Laura O'Bryan, co-Founders of MyVirtual.Lawyer, a virtual law firm offering limited scope representation in the areas of Family Law, Estate Planning, and Business Law. Brooke and Laura break down what limited scope representation is, how it can help your existing law firm grow (or how it can replace your existing practice all together), and what you can do to get started with LSR.

On March 3rd, 2019, I woke up, I went to Instagram and proceeded to delete the app off of my phone. I also deleted the Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, and LinkedIn apps and made the decision to not log in for the next 30 days.  I needed a break. I'm a social media-lover so this decision was huge for me, but it was necessary. I noticed that there's this feeling of overwhelm going around when it comes to social media. There's a lot of push back against this state of always having to post on the platform in order to remain relevant. Many people are outright deleting their accounts because they're exhausted.  As more and more articles surface highlighting the negative effects of social media on our mental health and behaviors, the more intrigued I became with reassessing my own usage of the platforms. In this episode, I share the results of my 30-day social media detox experiment and describe how I plan on using the platforms in a more sustainable way going forward.  A huge thank you goes to our show sponsor: Abby Connect:Abby Connect, the live receptionist service loved by small businesses.  Get your 2-week free trial and $95 off your first month at http://abbyconnect.com/genwhy Thanks for Checking Out the Show Notes and for Listening!

The legal environment these days almost demands that lawyers become experts in their practice areas. So before you can begin building your authority in a specific practice area or industry, it's important to select a niche that provides the best possibilities for growth. That's what we're discussing in this episode: how to identify the five qualities of a lucrative business niche to build your law practice around. Joining me today is Jacob Slowik, a partner with Joseph, Aleem & Slowik who represents healthcare businesses and co-author of the book, Small Law; Big Success: How to Use Business Niche Specialization to Grow a Multi-Million Dollar Law Practice. Jake and his law firm partners built a multi-million-dollar law practice before they were 30 years old. That is impressive! They did this by using a novel strategy of business niche specialization. Prior to Joseph, Aleem & Slowik, LLC, Mr. Slowik was an attorney with the real estate practice group of Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP in New York, New York. Mr. Slowik is a graduate of Harvard Law School and received his B.S. in Industrial and Labor Relations from Cornell University.

We are celebrating our four-year anniversary on the pod! Yowza! Thank you so much for your continued support. It means the world to Karima and me. In this celebratory episode, Karima and I are chatting about a symptom that many Millennials seem to be suffering from and don't even realize it – Millennial burnout. We also touch upon the issue of perfectionism that many lawyers find themselves grappling with. Must we spend hours reviewing a simple email out of fear of sending a less-than-perfect draft? We round out the conversation by exploring what “self-care” really means and if it truly lives up to its promise.

For many, public speaking is terrifying. For others, it's just a fun hobby. For me, having the opportunity to stand in front of a crowd and capture their attention for a prolonged period of time is a privilege and an opportunity for business development, when done right. Over the past 7 years, when I decided to take public speaking more seriously and to make it part of my business, I've learned how to work the stage, so to speak, to make public speaking an additional source of revenue in my business. What You'll Learn in This Episode:   Before you begin your speaking journey, you should know what you're talking about Why selecting a few topics to become known for is way more effective than listing about 30 things you can talk about Practice and preparation is key and can mean the difference between delivering a mediocre presentation and delivering a presentation that helps you secure business long after you present Even if you're serving on a panel with others, how can you best prepare? Set up a speakers page either on an existing website or as an entire website dedicated to you as a speaker Should you speak for free or only accept engagements that pay you? What can you be doing with your slides to help provide the necessary information for attendees to know about you When responding to questions How can you promote an upcoming speaking engagement on social media without sounding obnoxious? What is the best way to get the most out of video footage that you might have recorded while you were presenting?

The way you think about things affect how you feel and that impacts how you behave and how you show up in the world. If you're like me, you might have a lot of negative self-talk that feels limiting. If only we knew how to change our mindset, we could probably unlock a whole new level of amazingness, right? Well, let's undo some mindset damage, shall we? My guest today is Master Certified Life Coach, former women's rights lawyer, and host of the popular podcast, Unf*ck Your Brain, Kara Loewentheil. Kara holds a B.A. from Yale and a J.D. from Harvard Law. She helps women break through their confidence issues and negative self-talk and finally put into action their true desires. Her work isn't based on manifestation and law of attraction bs, it's rooted in cognitive psychology-based techniques and feminist theory. Kara shares how we can decipher between helpful and unhelpful thoughts, what the two steps are to begin retraining our brains, why “fake it til you make it” is utter crap, and how to assess our thoughts throughout the day.   Contact Information: Unf*ck Your Brain Podcast 5 Day Confidence Challenge Thank you to our show sponsor, Abby Connect Abby Connect is the live receptionist service loved by small businesses.  Get your 2-week free trial and $95 off your first month at http://abbyconnect.com/genwhy Thanks for Checking Out the Show Notes and for Listening!

As we celebrate Valentine's Day this week (and yes, we realize this is a totally made up “holiday”), we thought it'd be fun to talk about love and relationships as a lawyer. Lawyers are busy and often work long hours so finding time to date or nurture a loving relationship can often be difficult. Joining me today is Dr. Sharon Cohen, relationship and love consultant.  She received her PhD from the University of Texas and has been helping busy professionals have committed and fulfilling relationships. Dr. Cohen shares why it's important for women to tap into their inner energy when seeking a partner, how you can reignite the spark in a long-term relationship, and how to make time for your loved ones.   Contact Information: sharon@drsharoncohen.com www.drsharoncohen.com A huge thank you goes to our two show sponsors: LexisNexis: From predictive analytics to research solutions, legal tools from LexisNexis can help you research more thoroughly, work more efficiently and build stronger strategies.

Is it time to rethink success? Maybe you dream of buying a big house or you want to travel all over the world. Maybe you want to work fewer hours each week or you want to spend more time with your family. Lawyers have so many aspirations but for some reason, we tend to think that there is only one way to achieve those dreams – work ridiculously hard for many years and then eventually, acquire everything you want. Well, it's time to get creative and smart with how we make our money and how we craft our dream lives. If that's what you want, then it's time to opt out. Joining me on the show today to explain what opting out means is attorney, entrepreneur, law professor, and LinkedIn Learning educator, Dana Robinson. Dana shares his proposal for a new way of achieving success and wealth which rely on three income pillars: Establishing a side gig Owning a business Investing in real estate A huge thank you goes to our two show sponsors: LexisNexis: From predictive analytics to research solutions, legal tools from LexisNexis can help you research more thoroughly, work more efficiently and build stronger strategies.
