Podcasts about Christiansen

Before Flamingo Estate became one of the most beloved lifestyle brands in the world, Richard Christiansen was running a fast, urban, client driven creative agency. Today he's a rural Australian farm kid turned custodian of a hundred plus farms and makers, and the author of Pleasure Principles, a book that draws its wisdom from gardens rather than boardrooms.In this conversation, Richard and I talk about what it actually means to slow down while running a business that keeps growing. We get into the daily rituals that have nothing to do with work, the difference between expensive and truly luxurious, and the plant lessons from his book that took the longest to sink in. We also talk about hospitality in its truest sense, the people who shaped his taste, and what he'd tell someone to do if they only had twenty minutes to experience one pleasure from his world.This is a conversation about beauty, patience, and building something rooted enough to last.Produced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today on the podcast, McKay chats about making tough choices, the Endowment Effect, and why great risks can have great rewards. Opening up the episode with a story about two men's dangerous descent down the face of Peru's Siula Grande, McKay details the hardest decision of one of their lives and what it's like to work under pressure. From picking flavors at the ice cream shop to a marriage proposal, choices follow us everywhere, even when we think we don't have any. Feeling helpless or trapped? There is always a way out, but it isn't always easy. That's why this episode is all about forgetting failure, forsaking the status quo, and paying attention to the mood. The most important thing to remember, though, is that nothing changes unless you do. Taking risks can be scary, but you also just might find that your best life may lie on the other side. If McKay's learned anything in his life, it's that he's never regretted making a bold choice, whether it went his way or not. So take a note from the Christiansen book, and listen to what he has to say about decision making and why it's okay to make the daring one. The Finer Details of This Episode:Mount Huascaran and Yungay's powerful earthquakeSimpson and Yates' dangerous descentMaking tough choicesWhy life is your greatest instructorStatus Quo BiasFocusing on failureRisk and rewardsHow mood affects decision makingQuotes:“They enjoyed the thrill of their success only for a few minutes before the dread of the descent covered their thinking. Why? Because 80 percent of the deaths and accidents on climbs like this happen on the descent.”“If he cut the rope, he knew he would be sending his friend below him to a certain death. But if he didn't cut the rope he would fall along with Joe and likely die as well. There was no good choice. How do you choose?”“Some of us don't like to make a choice, because the consequences are hard to live with, and impact us and others.”“We make bad judgments, lack experience, misread, misinterpret, and mistake the wrong thing for the right thing. And life is tough. Life teaches us there are consequences for bad choices. And, as a result, we may shy away from those choices.”“What is often true is: you can't change the cards you are dealt with, but you can change how you play them.”“When faced with a choice that involves an element of risk, the vast majority of people will choose what they have: the status quo.”“I get feeling helpless or trapped. I have felt this way before, but there is something liberating and energizing about choosing.”“And it may be time to make the bolder choice, to purposefully act against mood and the status quo in your life. If you don't feel like it, that very mood and feeling may be telling you to choose it anyway. Your best life may be found on the other side of today's difficult choice.”Links:https://www.mckaychristensen.org/

Former Playboy Playmate Audra Lynn Christiansen said Jeffrey Epstein sexually assaulted and trafficked her after she entered his orbit in 2004, describing an experience that she said eventually led her to seek help from Playboy founder Hugh Hefner. Christiansen, Playboy's Miss October 2003, said she had been living at the Playboy Mansion when she became connected with Epstein and alleged that she was sexually abused by him and trafficked to other powerful men, including Macau casino billionaire Stanley Ho. According to Christiansen, she eventually told Hefner what had happened and asked him to contact federal authorities because she believed his fame and connections would force the FBI to take her allegations seriously. Hefner reportedly contacted the bureau multiple times on her behalf in 2005, yet Christiansen said the FBI did not meaningfully follow up with her until 2020, years after the alleged abuse and after Epstein was already dead.Christiansen also described an alleged confrontation with Ghislaine Maxwell after she began speaking about what had happened to her. She said Maxwell threatened her and attempted to intimidate her into silence, reinforcing Christiansen's portrayal of Maxwell as someone who protected Epstein and helped maintain the atmosphere of fear surrounding women who might expose him. Her account added another dimension to the growing record of warnings authorities allegedly received about Epstein long before his 2019 federal arrest, raising renewed questions about why allegations brought directly to the FBI were not aggressively pursued. Christiansen's story was especially significant because she claimed that a nationally famous figure with considerable influence had personally contacted federal law enforcement on her behalf, yet even that reportedly failed to produce an investigation capable of stopping Epstein at the time.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmmail.comsource:Ex-Playboy Playmate Audra Christiansen says Ghislaine Maxwell threatened her after Epstein assault 

As more context to our previous episode examining just how many opportunities authorities had to intervene against Jeffrey Epstein, an amended lawsuit brought by 32 Epstein survivors added another extraordinary allegation to the timeline. According to the complaint, former Playboy Playmate Audra Lynn Christiansen told Hugh Hefner in 2005 that Epstein had raped and trafficked her, and that she had also been trafficked to Macau casino billionaire Stanley Ho. Christiansen, who was 23 and living at the Playboy Mansion at the time, reportedly turned to Hefner because she believed his prominence and law-enforcement connections might force authorities to take her allegations seriously. Hefner then allegedly contacted the FBI multiple times on her behalf specifically to report Epstein. That meant the bureau was allegedly being handed information about Epstein's sexual abuse and trafficking in 2005, during the same general period in which Palm Beach police were beginning to uncover their own evidence against him.What makes the revelation especially important in the context of our previous discussion is what allegedly happened next: essentially nothing. According to the lawsuit, the FBI did not follow up with Christiansen until October 2020, roughly fifteen years after Hefner's calls and more than a year after Epstein was dead. The allegation fits into the survivors' much broader case against the federal government, which contends that the FBI received credible warnings about Epstein dating back to at least 1996 yet repeatedly failed to investigate him aggressively enough to stop the abuse. The government has sought dismissal of the lawsuit and has argued, among other things, that the FBI was not legally required to investigate every complaint it received, while the survivors maintain that the failures went far beyond one missed tip. So when placed alongside everything we discussed previously, Hefner's alleged calls add another disturbing data point: Epstein was not operating because nobody was sounding alarms. People were sounding alarms, victims were identifying him, influential intermediaries were allegedly contacting federal law enforcement on their behalf, and yet another opportunity to meaningfully intervene appears to have disappeared into the system.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Newly surfaced court records alleged that Playboy founder Hugh Hefner contacted the FBI in 2005 after then-Playboy Playmate Audra Christiansen told him that she had been sexually abused and trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein. According to the filing, Christiansen believed Hefner's prominence would give the allegation greater credibility with federal authorities and asked him to make the report on her behalf. Hefner allegedly did so, putting the FBI on notice about accusations involving Epstein years before his 2008 Florida conviction and more than a decade before his 2019 federal sex-trafficking arrest. Christiansen alleged that Epstein raped her and trafficked her over a period of roughly 10 years, making Hefner's reported contact with federal authorities another potentially significant early warning about Epstein's conduct.The records further alleged that the FBI failed to meaningfully investigate Hefner's warnings for approximately 15 years, despite receiving information concerning sexual abuse and trafficking. Christiansen's lawsuit argued that the bureau violated policies requiring agents to investigate credible reports of child sexual abuse and trafficking, and that its failure to act left Epstein free to continue victimizing women and girls. The allegations add another chapter to longstanding questions about how numerous warnings, complaints and opportunities to investigate Epstein were handled by law enforcement before his eventual federal prosecution. If the claims are substantiated, Hefner's reported 2005 warning would further undermine the idea that federal authorities lacked early information about the scope and seriousness of Epstein's alleged conduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Hugh Hefner reported Jeffrey Epstein to FBI for alleged rape of Playboy Playmate

Love, Sex & Autism: Building Intimacy Through Safety, Not PressureWhat does a healthy sexual relationship look like in a neurodiverse marriage?In this episode, Dr. Stephanie Holmes and Barbara Grant welcome back Candice Christiansen, LCMHC, Autism-ADHD specialist and author of Love, Sex & Autism. Candice previously joined us to discuss the significant overlap between autism, ADHD, and addiction. That previous show is here: This time, the conversation turns to one of the most requested—and often misunderstood—topics in neurodiverse relationships: sex and intimacy.The past show with Candice: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/porn-sex-addiction-sexuality-autism-with-candice-christiansen--67047295Together they explore:Why autism and ADHD can influence sexual desire in very different waysHypersexuality, compulsive sexual behaviors, and sexual addictionLow libido and desire discrepancies between partnersSensory sensitivities and how they affect intimacyThe role of trauma, shame, and emotional safetyHow differences in communication can create misunderstanding around sexWhy pressure, coercion, obligation, and manipulation damage intimacyHow couples can accommodate differing libidos with compassion and mutual respectThe central message of this conversation is that healthy intimacy is not measured by frequency or performance. Lasting sexual connection grows from mutual safety, trust, compassion, emotional connection, and genuine concern for one another's well-being. Especially in neurodiverse marriages, where sensory differences, communication challenges, and differing sexual needs may exist, intimacy flourishes when both partners feel emotionally and physically safe, free from coercion, compulsions, addiction, guilt, or pressure.Whether you are navigating high libido, low libido, sensory differences, or simply seeking a healthier understanding of intimacy, this conversation offers practical insights and hope for building a relationship where both partners can experience mutual pleasure, respect, and connection.About Our GuestCandice Christiansen, LCMHC is an Autistic-ADHD autism expert who provides neuro-affirming consultation and training to medical and mental health providers, universities, treatment centers, and organizations. She is passionate about ensuring that autistic individuals receive ethical, neuro-inclusive medical and mental health support in treatment settings addressing mental health, substance use, sex, and intimacy.

In this episode of Wild & Waking, I'm joined by Paige Christiansen, Co-Founder and CEO of Self(ish), behavioral strategist, entrepreneur, and Human Design expert, for a conversation about raising daughters beyond the good girl script. So many women are actively unraveling people-pleasing, perfectionism, over-functioning, and the belief that being loved requires being agreeable, helpful, easy, or endlessly accommodating. But when we become mothers, an entirely new question emerges: how do we teach our daughters to be kind, thoughtful, and connected without accidentally teaching them to abandon themselves?Paige introduces the “villain edit”, the fear women carry of being perceived as selfish, cold, difficult, dramatic, or too much, and explains how that fear begins shaping our identities from an early age. We explore how women become a threat to themselves when they are constantly editing, suppressing, or overcorrecting who they are in order to remain likable. Paige offers a powerful reframe of selfishness as self-possession: centering yourself in your own life, trusting your internal authority, and allowing other people to have their own reactions without making their comfort your responsibility.Together, we talk about what it means to model self-possession, boundaries, emotional honesty, and personal power for our daughters. Paige shares how she uses Human Design to understand her children as whole individuals rather than extensions of herself, support their unique emotional and energetic needs, and guide them through sibling conflict, communication, decision-making, and self-trust. We also explore how to teach empathy without emotional over-responsibility, why children need space to experience discomfort, and how mothers can stop parenting through the lens of perfection, performance, and fear of being judged.In this episode, we explore:How good girl conditioning begins in childhood and shapes women's identity, relationships, motherhood, and self-worthThe difference between raising kind, thoughtful daughters and conditioning girls to people-please, over-function, or self-abandonPaige's concept of the “villain edit” and why women fear being seen as selfish, difficult, cold, dramatic, or too muchReclaiming selfishness as self-possession, self-respect, and the ability to center yourself in your own lifeWhy mothers must model self-trust, emotional honesty, boundaries, and authentic self-expression for their daughtersHow to raise girls who can ask for what they want, hear no, disappoint others, and remain connected to themselvesThe importance of seeing children as whole individuals rather than extensions or reflections of their parentsHow Human Design can support conscious parenting, self-awareness, decision-making, and understanding a child's unique needsUsing Human Design to navigate emotional sensitivity, sibling conflict, communication patterns, and family dynamicsTeaching children empathy without making them emotionally responsible for everyone around themHelping sensitive children understand which emotions belong to them and which emotions they may be absorbing from othersThe ways perfectionism and good mother conditioning can quietly influence parenting choicesPaige's vision for Self(ish) Media and the intersection of Human Design, cultural psychology, relationships, self-concept, and modern womanhoodBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Paige:Learn more about Paige's work, Self(ish) Media, Human Design, relationships, self-possession, and modern womanhood:Follow Paige on InstagramFollow Paige on ThreadsFollow the Officially Selfish Show on InstagramVisit Paige's websiteExplore Paige's Human Design reports:Loved by Design Relationship ReportYou + Your Child Parent and Child ReportYou + Your Business ReportConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and Links:Sign up here to get the inside scoop to my book writing journey!Book me as a speaker for your next event - email inquiries to emilyreuschel@gmail.com or schedule a call hereWild & Waking – Produced by Jill Carr Podcasting | Learn More

Manche Komponisten verdanken ihren Ruhm einem ganzen Lebenswerk, andere einem einzigen Stück. Beim Dänen Jacob Gade ist es ein Tango, der bis heute um die Welt geht: „Tango Jalousie“, der „Tango der Eifersucht“. Gades übriges Schaffen gerät darüber jedoch fast in Vergessenheit. Ein neues Buch möchte das ändern und zeichnet nun Gades Lebensweg nach – von den Anfängen in der dänischen Provinz bis zum internationalen Erfolg. Andreas Maurer hat es gelesen.

¡Bienvenido al cuarto Ethos Bite! Un formato reducido de nuestro Ethos Podcast en el que aprovecharemos a tratar temas más concretos y compartir recursos relacionados para ayudarte en el camino.En este Ethos Bite, Carlo y Alberto hablan de una idea que aparece mucho cuando intentas cuidar tu alimentación: el miedo a “los químicos”, a la cafeína, a los edulcorantes, a las bebidas energéticas o incluso a ciertos alimentos que durante años hemos aprendido a mirar con desconfianza.Hablamos de:• Por qué “tener químicos” no significa automáticamente que algo sea malo• Qué significa realmente que “la dosis hace el veneno”• Un plátano también está lleno de componentes químicos• Cómo mirar una bebida energética sin caer en el miedo ni en el autoengaño• Cuándo puede tener sentido tomar cafeína y cuándo quizá no la necesitas tanto• El papel del ritual, el sabor y el contexto en el café, las bebidas energéticas o el alcohol• Por qué a veces confundimos el efecto real de una sustancia con lo que esperamos sentir• Cómo se construye el miedo a ciertos alimentos después de una pérdida de grasa• Qué hacer cuando empiezas a evitar comidas, ingredientes o planes sociales por miedoLa idea no es decirte que todo da igual, ni que puedas tomar cualquier cosa sin pensar. La idea es ayudarte a mirar la alimentación con más criterio y menos miedo.Porque cuidar lo que comes no debería convertir cada ingrediente en una amenaza.¿Quieres aprender a aplicar todo esto en tu día a día y conseguir resultados?Entra en https://www.programadoce.com y pregunta a nuestro equipo.Links relevantes:Programa Doce:https://www.programadoce.comAlberto Álvarez @themacrowizardthemacrowizard.comReferencias estudios mencionados en el episodio:Christiansen et al., 2017 — placebo de alcohol, sensación subjetiva de intoxicación y consumo posterior. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/312145469_Bibi_ergo_sum_the_effects_of_a_placebo_and_contextual_alcohol_cues_on_motivation_to_drink_alcoholCorcoran, 1993 — cerveza sin alcohol como placebo creíble. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8342438/Fukuda, 2019 — cerveza sin alcohol produciendo respuestas condicionadas incluso sabiendo que no lleva alcohol. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S002396901830460000:00 Los químicos no son el problema01:34 El miedo a los edulcorantes y al aspartamo02:24 La dosis hace el veneno03:04 ¿Qué lleva realmente un Monster?04:45 Un plátano también tiene químicos05:57 Por qué algo procesado requiere más contexto06:54 Cafeína: cuándo tomarla y cuándo no07:13 El café como ritual08:03 “Si no tomo café no soy persona”09:27 Cómo probar si realmente necesitas cafeína10:07 Alcohol, ritual y contexto social11:34 El efecto placebo del alcohol13:00 El miedo a lo que no entendemos13:40 Cuando cuidar la alimentación se convierte en miedo14:20 La experiencia de Alberto con la comida iraní15:39 Cómo reintroducir alimentos sin miedo

The Danish toy brand Lego may be celebrating its 91th anniversary in 2023, but it's showing no signs of slowing down! An average of 31 billion bricks are sold each year around the world, and the company appeals to a wide range of people.  Back in 1932, in the small Danish town of Billund, carpenter Ole Kirk Christiansen decided to expand his business by building small wooden toys. A couple of years later, Christiansen chose the name Lego, as an abbreviation of Leg Godt, which means “to play well” in Danish. It was only after the second world war that Lego started producing its first plastic bricks, when the material became more widely available in Denmark. How did Lego start out? How did Lego stay so strong over the years? What about Lego's environmental footprint? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

What if the most important thing you ever built wasn't a business? What if it was a blueprint, one that defines who you are, what you stand for, and how you show up for the people who matter most? That's the question this episode dares you to answer. In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm resharing the Guest Guru Training that Rich Christiansen delivered exclusively to our Happy Hustle Club. And let me tell you, this one is too good to keep behind closed doors. Rich is a bestselling author, humanitarian, mentor, man of deep faith, husband, and father. But what sets him apart, what makes him the real deal, is how intentionally he has built his life from the inside out. His five sons each launched million-dollar businesses before the age of 19. Not because Rich handed them anything, but because he built a framework, a living, breathing family legacy system he calls Legato, that shaped them into powerful, centered, contributing men. This episode is one of those rare ones you'll want to come back to. Whether you're a husband, a father, an entrepreneur, or all three, Rich drops wisdom that will genuinely stop you mid-scroll and make you think hard about how you're spending your time, your energy, and your love. The first big takeaway is what Rich calls the 2-Minute Surrender. Most of us are walking around in limbic brain all day, stuck in a primal loop of fight or flight, triggered by every notification, every bad email, every scroll through social media. Rich breaks down a five-step sequence you can run through in under two minutes to snap out of that fog and get back into your frontal cortex, where clear, powerful decisions actually happen. The steps are simple: move your body, take three deep breaths, say a power mantra, ask your higher power for what you need, and visualize a moment or place that brings you genuine joy. That's it. Rich runs through this sequence four or five times a day, especially before big meetings or high-stakes moments, and the research backs him up. Visualization alone has been shown to be nearly as effective as physical practice. Your mind is that powerful. The second takeaway is the Values Blueprint. Rich has spent over 20 years as what he calls "the values guy," and he makes a sharp point most of us miss: we are great at defining values for our companies, we're getting better at it for our families, but very few individuals can clearly articulate their own personal value system. That gap is where the chaos lives. Rich's process walks you through identifying your core values, emotionally anchoring them with mantras and phrases that actually stick, defining what they mean in real concrete terms, and building screening questions to test whether the people in your life are genuinely in alignment with what you stand for. The whole workbook is free on his website, richchristensen.com, and I'd strongly encourage you to grab it. The third takeaway is the circles of relationship, and this one hit me like a truck. Rich breaks down the layers of connection in our lives from blood brothers, the one or two people who'd give you a kidney, to your trust network, your tribe, your community, and your contacts. Here's the part that stings: most of us are pouring our absolute best energy into the outer circle, our social media followers, our casual contacts, the people who don't even know our middle names, while we're giving the leftover, burned out, depleted version of ourselves to the people who love us most. Rich challenges us to flip that completely. Give 60 to 70 percent of your best to your inner circle. The people who'd show up at 3 in the morning. That's where real wealth lives. The fourth takeaway is the Legato rites of passage, and honestly, this part of the conversation is worth the full listen on its own. Rich designed intentional milestones for each of his five sons at ages 8, 12, 14, 16, and 18. At 12, he took each son on a three-week trip that included a deep adventure followed by serving orphaned children in Nepal, connecting them to something much bigger than themselves. At 14, each son climbed a major mountain peak to prove to himself he could do hard, genuinely hard things. At 16, each son shook Rich's hand and declared his independence, committing to never ask for financial support again, then built a business to back it up. The goal wasn't to produce rich kids. The goal was to produce sovereign men. Centered, purposeful, and powerful in their own right. The fifth takeaway is the straight truth about value alignment in business. Rich is clear: smart people who like each other but aren't values-aligned will blow up a company. Full stop. He built teams of 15 that outperformed teams of 50, not because they worked harder but because the speed of trust was so high there were no unnecessary stops, no friction, no second-guessing. Value congruency is your competitive advantage. Screen for it. Build around it. Protect it. Rich also touches on digital unplugging and the danger of technology keeping us locked in limbic brain, something we talk about a lot in the Happy Hustle world. The bottom line is this: your best thinking, your deepest relationships, and your most meaningful decisions don't happen on the screen. They happen when you're present, grounded, and actually in the room with the people who matter. If you want to live a life of real flow, not just hustle for its own sake, you need value alignment at every level: personally, in your relationships, in your business, and in how you spend your time and money. Rich has built that life, and he's generous enough to share the exact blueprint with all of us. Do yourself a favor and listen to the full episode at https://caryjack.com/podcastin/.

In a special offseason USCHO Report, Jim Connelly interviews ECAC commissioner Doug Christiansen about an NCAA proposal to change the eligibility window to align with high school graduation or a player's 19th birthday. In this episode, Christiansen explains that this would have major consequences for college hockey, with 75% of players potentially losing a year of eligibility given the sport's average player age of 20.6. Christiansen describes ongoing, collaborative discussions with the NCAA, NHL, USA Hockey, and development leagues. The talks emphasize hockey's unique development path through junior hockey and that the proposed rule was not designed for hockey.Find all of our podcasts at USCHO.com/podcasts

What goes on in our minds when we construct an utterance? Linguists often use syntax trees to represent the structure of sentences, but are they psychologically real? Yngwie Nielsen and Dr Morten Christiansen have found evidence for something else: we can recognise patterns in strings of words, even when they don't form coherent "treelets". They're giving us a walkthrough of their latest work.

This episode is audio from METRO's Digital Culture of Metropolitan New York community event, featuring a presentation by Rob Christiansen, Director of Broadcast Applications, New York Public Radio. It was recorded on April 8, 2026.

Have you ever felt like you were doing all the right things, checking all the boxes, growing the business, building the brand, showing up every day, and still felt like something was just off? Like there was this low hum of chaos underneath everything no matter how hard you worked? Yeah, me too. And that is exactly where this conversation starts. In this episode, I sat down with one of my favorite humans on the planet, the one and only Rich Christiansen. Rich is a globally recognized thought leader, educator, mentor, and parallel entrepreneur who has co-founded 51 businesses, 16 of which have become multi-million dollar successes, most of them built with $10,000 or less in starting capital. He has done business in over 14 countries, written multiple bestselling books, and created programs like Legato Family that have genuinely changed the trajectory of my own family's life. He is also a husband, father of five sons, a man of deep faith, and someone who walks his talk every single day. Rich has spent decades helping legacy families and high-performing entrepreneurs get out of chaos by getting clear on what they actually stand for, and that is exactly what we get into today. This episode is centered around Rich's values workbook, a practical, deeply personal framework he has been privately using in two-day intensive mentoring sessions for 15 years with some of the most successful people in the world. Now he is making it accessible to everyone, and I cannot think of a more important conversation to have right now. Because here is the truth: most of us think we know our values, but we actually do not. We have borrowed them from our business, our sports team, or our parents, and we have never stopped to do the real work of figuring out what we actually stand for. That gap is costing us peace, costing us relationships, and costing us way more than we realize. Here are the key takeaways from this episode that I think every Happy Hustler needs to sit with: The first is that identifying your real values is the foundation of everything. Rich walks through all eight components of his values workbook in this episode, and it starts with uncovering your true core values, not the ones you borrowed from somewhere else, but the ones that are genuinely yours. He uses seven generation thinking, looking back at the wisdom of your ancestors and forward to what you want to leave for your great-grandchildren, to help you find what you actually stand for. Most people skip this step entirely and wonder why they feel so scattered. The second is that your trash can values matter just as much as your core ones. Rich opens up about his own journey of identifying and eliminating guilt, shame, and scarcity from his life, values he inherited but never chose. He shares a beautiful story about his 240-pound son grabbing him by the shoulders during a game of pool after Rich muttered something self-critical, and reminding him that those are not the values they agreed to live by. That story hit me hard, and I think it will hit you too. The third is that you have to emotionalize your values or they will never stick. Rich talks about naming your values in a way that fires something up inside you. Not boring corporate words like integrity or hard work, but names like hope gripper, or work win waddle, names that carry meaning and create an inside language between the people in your world. This is how culture gets built in a family or a business, through that inside emotional connection. The fourth is that your values become the mediator in every hard conversation. Instead of pointing the finger at another person when conflict shows up, you point to the shared value and have the conversation from there. Rich calls this the ligament in the relationship, and once you hear him explain it, you will never want to have a hard conversation any other way again. The fifth is one that shook me: most of us are giving 60 to 80 percent of our best energy to the outermost circle of our lives, the contacts, the followers, the people scrolling past our posts, and only 5 to 10 percent to the blood brothers and sisters who would actually show up for us at 2 in the morning. Rich challenges you to flip that, to protect your inner circle like it is sacred, because it is. I want to leave you with something Rich said near the end of this conversation that I have not been able to stop thinking about. He talked about a billionaire who sat across from him and wept, not because of money problems or business failures, but because he had 10,000 people he could call and not one who loved his soul enough to give him a kidney without expecting something in return. That is the kind of wake-up call this episode delivers. If you have been running hard, building fast, and feeling a little hollow underneath it all, this is the episode for you. Rich is the real deal and this conversation will stick with you long after it ends. Go listen to the full episode at https://caryjack.com/podcastin/ and if this one resonated with you, share it with someone who is grinding away but has not done this inner work yet. Sometimes the most loving thing you can do for someone is hand them the mirror. That is Happy Hustlin'. What does Happy Hustlin' mean to you? Balance doing it properly. Yeah, go get it, but doing it in a fun, playful, appropriate way. Stop the green.

 Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast Host: Vicki Noethling Featured Guest: Jane Barlow Christiansen Episode Title: The Magic of Plant Medicine What if the answers to your health, energy, and inner wisdom have been growing around you all along? In this powerful and grounding episode of the Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast, host Vicki Noethling sits down with master herbalist Jane Barlow Christiansen to explore the ancient—and deeply relevant—world of plant medicine and natural healing. Jane is the owner of Barlow Herbal Specialties and the author of Be Your Own Shaman. Raised in rural Idaho as the second oldest of fourteen children, Jane grew up immersed in herbal wisdom through her father, a medicinal botanist. That early foundation shaped not only how she lives, but how she teaches others to reclaim responsibility for their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. In this conversation, Jane shares how plant medicine isn't about rejecting modern life—but about reconnecting with trust, intuition, and informed choice. She offers compassionate guidance for those who are curious about natural healing but unsure where to begin, especially when caring for family members. In this episode, you'll hear Jane and Vicki discuss: Jane's personal journey into herbal medicine and natural healing What it was like growing up with a medicinal botanist as a father How that upbringing shaped Jane's lifestyle and health choices as an adult Key lessons she's learned about caring for the body naturally over time How to navigate relationships when loved ones resist natural healing approaches Building confidence in herbal and plant-based medicine—especially for children and family How to discern trustworthy sources in an overwhelming wellness space Jane's favorite herbs everyone should consider having on hand This episode is an invitation to slow down, tune in, and remember that leadership begins with how we care for ourselves—mind, body, and spirit.

Small, steady moves can transform a classroom. We sit down with Pennsylvania educator Brittany Christensen to unpack how 5–10 minute SEL warmups grew into a living practice woven through literacy, nonfiction analysis, and daily routines. Teaching English and ESOL in a large urban district, she shows how high expectations can coexist with care by building a shared language around growth mindset, self-discipline, and self-motivation, then returning to those skills in texts, discussions, and assessments.You'll hear how she starts with clear, student-owned definitions, scaffolds from spotting competencies in literature to reflecting on real life, and uses quick exit tickets to make progress visible. We dig into concrete strategies for integrating SEL into reading and writing: narrowing focus to a few skills per unit, inviting groups to justify choices with textual evidence and author context, and connecting skills to figures like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Brittany's ESOL lens shines through with explicit vocabulary, gradual release, and co-teaching habits that support multilingual learners. Beyond the classroom, Brittany models accountability as care by closing loops with families when students ask for it, and sharing how restorative practices and humility fuel collaborative growth. She offers practical planning tips to get started tomorrow: put SEL on the calendar, use early-finish moments or pre-break days, and keep routines short and consistent. If you want a humane, high-expectation classroom where students can name the skills they're practicing and transfer them to life, this conversation delivers tools you can use right away.EPISODE RESOURCES:Connect with Brittany via email at BCHRISTIANSEN@basdschools.org

A check in conversation with Cindie Christiansen, founder of Foodprint Nordic and Top 50 Farmers (no, it's not a ranking, so nobody “won”). We spoke just six months ago, but this time we met in person to talk about the progress of turning farmers into the next superheroes of climate, water, health, and more.We unpack her vision for systems change in food and agriculture. Directly from one of the world's leading culinary scenes, Copenhagen, we ask: why hasn't a strong farm-to-table, local cuisine movement led to real change in the agrifood system yet? And more importantly, what can we do about it?We dive into her work with Foodprint Nordic and how they're about to expand it to the rest of Europe. Very simply, but of course, it's not that simple, the idea is to access a whole new pool of money not yet active in this space: the money of us eaters, and funnel it as quickly and with as few strings attached as possible to farmers ready to expand regenerative practices, planting trees, buying compost equipment, and more.And even more importantly, how this approach could serve as a blueprint for real regional, and potentially national, action, helping shape government policy that truly supports regenerative farmers on the ground.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

Marla Christensen, AMFT, APCC, and Tony Overbay, LMFT, delve into Ethan Kross's "Shift: Managing Your Emotions So They Don't Manage You" for another installment of the "Virtual Couch Book Club." They explore emotional awareness, sensory shifts, and cultural influences on emotional well-being.
