In The EA Campus Ep87, we're talking about something that sits at the heart of the EA–Executive relationship. Decision-making, and knowing when to act without constantly checking in.As Executive Assistants, we're expected to move work forward, protect priorities, and reduce pressure on our executive. In The EA Campus Ep87, Nicky Christmas explores how judgement, problem-solving, and clear processes help EAs build trust through everyday decisions.This conversation is grounded in real EA work. Inbox management. Calendar decisions. Priorities. Access. The moments where you pause and wonder whether to decide or check in.You'll hear why over-checking often creeps in, even for experienced EAs, and how executives actually experience repeated confirmation requests. In The EA Campus Ep87, we look at how trust is built through consistency rather than big moments.Nicky shares practical ways to strengthen your decision-making using context, past experience, and an understanding of what genuinely moves work forward. This includes what to do when a decision doesn't land as expected, and how to recover without retreating into over-checking.One of the key themes in the episode is what changes once your Executive fully trusts how you think and work. Autonomy increases. Your role becomes clearer. You're managing work end-to-end rather than relaying decisions.We also explore how this level of trust affects influence. You're involved earlier. Your recommendations carry more weight. Others begin to see your role differently because of how consistently you operate.Beyond the relationship itself, The EA Campus Ep87 looks at how confident decision-making shapes your day-to-day work. Fewer check-ins. Clearer ownership. Less second-guessing. More focus on solving problems that matter.If you're an EA who wants to feel more confident making decisions, especially in fast-moving or high-pressure environments, The EA Campus Ep87 will feel very familiar.We also reference current EA Campus training throughout the episode, including our Virtual Summit on 27 January and upcoming AI masterclasses in January and February, all designed to support better decision-making in real EA workflows.

Addiction Unlimited Podcast | Alcoholism | Life Coach | Living Sober | 12 Steps
Everything you need to know about why sobriety alone isn’t enough – and what real recovery actually looks like. Listen, I see this pattern ALL the time with the people I work with. They quit drinking, they think they’ve done the hard part, and then a few weeks or months in… they’re confused. They’re disappointed. They’re thinking, “Is THIS what the rest of my life is going to be like?” And the answer is: only if you stop here. Sobriety is quitting. Recovery is healing. And the only way to stay sober – the only way to actually build a life you love – is to do the healing work Most people quit drinking hoping sobriety won't be too inconvenient. They want the same life.The same relationships.The same routines.Just… without alcohol. And at first, it works. You feel better. Clearer. Less foggy. But then — weeks or months in — the feelings come back. Anxiety.Overwhelm.Anger.Fear. All the things alcohol was quietly managing for you? They're still there. And now they're loud because you aren’t numbing them anymore. That doesn't mean sobriety is failing.It means your nervous system is healing. Today, I’m sitting down with Michael Z, who has 30 years of sobriety. And let me tell you, this conversation is GOLD. Michael is old-school AA, incredibly honest, and he shares exactly what it was really like in early sobriety and what it takes to build a life you actually want to live long-term. Because recovery isn't a destination — it's a practice. If you’re newly sober and struggling – if you’re thinking “why is this so hard?” or “I thought things would be better by now” – you’re not doing it wrong. You’re just in the gap. The gap between sobriety and recovery. Grab your headphones, get comfortable, and let’s talk about what it really takes to stay sober. Trust me, this conversation is going to give you the clarity and the roadmap you need to move forward. If you're done white-knuckling, overthinking, or feeling stuck in that miserable middle — and you want real support to build a solid recovery foundation — I can help.
Hey Friend Many times, natural and conventional approaches work best together and my personal journey has just led me to ask more questions about how to support the body earlier, figure out the root cause, and heal at the cellular level. Recently, I had another thermography scan done. If you're not familiar, thermography doesn't diagnose disease. It looks at heat patterns and inflammation in the body. I like it because it gives information without labels or fear. Here's what stood out to me: Overall, my scan looked better than my last one however, three new areas showed up as moderately and highly suspisious. And honestly? That didn't alarm me. It actually made sense. Healing isn't linear. Improvement doesn't mean the body stops communicating. What I saw was a body that's regulating better overall while still asking for deeper support in a few specific places. It confirms to me that cooking from scratch, eliminating seed oils & toxins from what I put in my body to on my body is helping along with lifestyle changes. To me, that felt like wisdom. Those results didn't make me want to do more things. They made me want to do deeper things. I've learned over the years that the body is incredibly intelligent. It's constantly adapting and communicating. And that's what led me to explore more natural, non-invasive support, especially at the cellular level. I've only recently started using PEMF and Terahertz technology myself. I'm not speaking from years of personal experience yet. I'm speaking from education, professional background, observation, and early personal use. And I think that honesty matters because I never want to overstate where I am in the journey. PEMF, or pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, and Terahertz frequencies are forms of energy the body already recognizes. They're non-invasive. They're gentle. And they're designed to work with the body, not force it. Instead of overriding the body, they support things like: Cellular communication Circulation and oxygen delivery Nervous system regulation Energy production at the cellular level I often think of it as helping the body remember what it already knows how to do especially when stress, inflammation, or time has disrupted those signals. Seeing improvement on my scan told me, “What you're doing is helping.” Seeing new areas told me, “Don't stop listening.” And that's where cellular-level support made sense to me not out of fear, but out of stewardship. Out of long-term thinking. Out of respect for the body's design. No promises here. No guarantees. But what I consistently hear from people using PEMF and Terahertz support is that changes often start quietly: Better sleep and the 2nd night I slept better than I have in several years. More stable energy and I noticed this almost immediately as I get more fatigued in the winter which probably has alot to do with little sun. Less inflammation - I was able to go without shoes on my hardwood floors which I haven't been able to do for over a year. Clearer thinking A calmer nervous system. And sometimes the most meaningful thing people say is simply, “I feel more like myself again.” I believe our bodies were created with incredible intelligence. Scripture says we are fearfully and wonderfully made and I take that seriously. For me, supporting the body naturally isn't about rejecting medicine. It's about stewardship. Listening. Responding. And caring for what we've been entrusted with. Just to say it again: This is not medical advice. It doesn't replace medical care. It doesn't diagnose or treat disease. It's education and personal experience only. Always listen to your body. Always partner with trusted medical professionals when needed. If any part of this sparked curiosity for you, I invite you to join me on instagram where I share more of this story. Sometimes the most powerful step is simply paying closer attention to your body and asking better questions. And if you ever want to learn more or explore natural ways to support your body alongside conventional care, I'm always happy to have that conversation.

How food tastes has surprisingly little to do with the food itself. The lighting in the room, the weight of your fork, and even the color of your plate can all change how much you enjoy a meal — without you realizing it. This episode begins with how easily your senses can be influenced. https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2014/12/31/370397449/food-psychology-how-to-trick-your-palate-into-a-tastier-meal# When you recognize someone, it usually happens instantly — but what exactly are you recognizing? How much of a face do you need to see? Why are some people incredibly good at recognizing faces while others struggle or are completely face blind? And how does facial recognition software compare to the human brain? Sharrona Pearl joins me to explore why face recognition varies so dramatically between people. She is associate professor of medical ethics and history at Drexel University and author of Do I Know You?: From Face Blindness to Super Recognition (https://amzn.to/3TWc0VX). We like to believe we think clearly and rationally — but much of the time our brains are running on autopilot. That's when bad decisions, faulty reasoning, and unnecessary mistakes creep in. Shane Parrish explains how to slow down your thinking, avoid mental traps, and make better decisions in everyday moments. Shane is an entrepreneur whose work is used by Fortune 500 companies and professional sports teams, host of The Knowledge Project podcast, and author of Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results (https://amzn.to/3Hl0FHj). And finally, some people insist they can drink coffee right before bed and sleep just fine. Is that really possible — or are they fooling themselves? We wrap up with what sleep science actually says about caffeine and nighttime rest. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/shift-worker-alert-curb-t_b_386058 Learn more about your ad choices.

Are your fitness goals realistic for the life of a busy sales professional? "I find that a lot of sales leaders I work with are operating at about 110% capacity. So when we're talking about tackling health and fitness, we have to really understand what is going to be the few habits that are really easy to do and have the biggest bang for buck." That's Josh Hulsebosch, a fitness coach who specializes in working with sales professionals, speaking on the Sales Gravy podcast. His observation cuts straight to the real reason most January fitness resolutions fail: they're trying to add more to an already overflowing plate. The typical sales professional is already drowning in competing priorities while operating at maximum capacity. When New Year's hits, the instinct is to overhaul everything at once. New diet. New workout plan. New morning routine. That approach might work for people with open calendars and low pressure. For salespeople pushing through Q1 kickoffs, territory planning, and quota pressure, it is a fast track to burnout. The All-or-Nothing Trap Meet Steve. He's an individual contributor who decided January 1st would mark his transformation. No more coffee. Five-mile runs every morning. Intermittent fasting. Four hours of cold calling daily because he just finished reading Fanatical Prospecting. Ten days in, Steve slept through his alarm, missed his workout, and ordered a triple-shot latte on the way to work. That emotional crash bled into his work. His prospecting activity dropped. His confidence dipped. His motivation evaporated under the weight of his own perfectionism. Steve's mistake wasn't lack of commitment. He turned ambitious goals into self-sabotage by refusing to acknowledge a simple truth: sustainable change requires starting where you are, not where you wish you were. Most sales professionals approach fitness goals like they approach pipeline building—more activity equals better results. But health doesn't work like prospecting. You can't brute force your way into better sleep or lower stress. The body requires a different strategy. The 110% Capacity Problem Sales is a cognitively demanding profession. You're the quarterback of the business. Every day requires strategic thinking, relationship management, objection handling, and staying mentally sharp through rejection. When you're already operating at 110% capacity, adding extreme fitness commitments creates another obligation you can't meet, another source of stress, another thing to feel guilty about when you inevitably miss a workout or eat fast food between calls. The sales professionals who successfully improve their health identify which habits will support their performance, then build them into their existing routine. They do not chase trends. They focus on fundamentals. The Four Pillars of Health for Sales Professionals Fitness and health goals for sales professionals need to be realistic for people working at maximum capacity. You can't afford to waste energy on complicated protocols or fitness fads. You need the fundamentals: exercise, nutrition, sleep, and stress management. When these four pillars are strong, everything else becomes easier. Pillar One: Exercise The fitness industry wants you to believe you need intense workouts, complicated programs, and hours at the gym. For sales professionals, the single most effective exercise habit is walking 8,000 steps daily. This number is achievable for most people regardless of fitness level. It builds momentum without requiring a complete schedule overhaul. When you consistently hit 8,000 steps, you prove to yourself that you can follow through on a commitment without sacrificing your work performance. Movement improves cognitive function, reduces stress hormones, and helps with sleep quality—all critical for sales performance. Make it automatic. Take calls while walking. Park farther away from the office. Walk to get coffee instead of ordering delivery. Use a standing desk and pace during internal meetings. Build movement into what you are already doing rather than treating it as another task. Once 8,000 steps become effortless, you can layer in strength training or other activities. But walking is the foundation. It's the one exercise habit that compounds without breaking you. Pillar Two: Nutrition Sales professionals tend to fall into two nutrition traps. The first is eating like garbage because they're too busy to care. The second is attempting some extreme diet overhaul that lasts nine days before they're back to their old patterns. The solution isn't meal plans or macro tracking or cutting entire food groups. It's having a system that works when you're slammed. Start here: don't skip meals. When you're running between meetings and surviving on coffee, your blood sugar crashes. That kills your cognitive performance and drives you toward quick fixes that leave you feeling worse an hour later. Keep protein-rich foods accessible. Greek yogurt, hard-boiled eggs, protein bars that aren't candy in disguise, rotisserie chicken, nuts. These don't require cooking or planning. They stabilize your energy and keep you sharp during long stretches between meals. Meal prep doesn't need to be complicated. Pick one day, cook a large batch of something simple—grilled chicken, ground turkey, rice, roasted vegetables—and portion it out. Now you have real food available when your schedule gets chaotic. Hydration matters more than most people realize. Dehydration mimics fatigue. Keep water at your desk. Drink it between calls. If you're consuming coffee all day, match it with water. You'll notice the difference in your afternoon energy levels. Pillar Three: Sleep Sleep deprivation destroys sales performance. You get paid to think. When you run on five or six hours of sleep, decision-making suffers. Decision-making suffers. Emotional regulation weakens. Your ability to read prospects and handle objections declines. You can't always control how many hours you sleep, especially during high-pressure periods. But you can improve sleep quality. Start with a simple nighttime routine that signals to your body it's time to wind down. Turn off screens thirty minutes before bed. Keep your bedroom cool. If your mind races when you lie down, acknowledge the thoughts without engaging with them. Notice they're there, then redirect your focus to your breathing. If you wake up in the middle of the night with work thoughts, write them down or set a reminder for the next day. This closes the mental loop and allows your brain to let go. Pillar Four: Stress Management Sales is a pressure environment. Constant decision-making. Emotional labor. Rejection. Urgency. You move from call to meeting to fire drill to another call with almost no downtime. Over time, your nervous system stays stuck in high alert. That chronic stress does not just affect your mood. It impacts your sleep, your focus, your patience with prospects, and your ability to think clearly in complex conversations. If you do not manage it, it will manage you. Controlled breathing is one of the fastest ways to regulate your nervous system. Inhale for four seconds. Hold for four. Exhale for four. Hold for four. This is box breathing. You can do it between calls. Before a tough conversation. While waiting for a prospect to answer. It does not draw attention. It just brings your system back into balance. When stress is regulated, sleep improves. When sleep improves, thinking becomes clearer. Clearer thinking leads to better sales performance. It is a small habit. The impact compounds. Building Fitness Goals That Actually Stick If you're surviving on five hours of sleep, start there. If you're skipping meals and running on caffeine, fix your nutrition first. If you haven't moved your body in weeks, commit to 8,000 steps. Don't try to overhaul all four pillars simultaneously. That's the all-or-nothing trap that killed Steve's momentum in ten days. When you take care of your physical and mental health, you show up sharper for your prospects, your team, and your numbers. Your body is the vehicle for your career. You can't hit quota consistently if you're running on empty. Start with one pillar. Build one habit. Give it time to take root before you add the next one. That's how you win in Q1 and beyond. If you are serious about building fitness habits that actually fit the realities of sales, go deeper with Josh Hulsebosch's performance-focused courses on Sales Gravy University. His programs are built specifically for sales professionals who are operating at full capacity and still want to win on health, energy, and longevity.

What a profound conversation this was—a real unpacking of principles, where the philosophical meets the deeply practical. The core of this whole thing, as we dug into with Ann Cecil-Sterman, revolves around the true action of herbs, which—from the Taoist lineage we follow—comes down to pure taste, not just some chemical breakdown. It's that deeper "flavor sensing in the stomach." My journey with Superfeast has been about living the great Yin-Yang puzzle: holding the intense contrast between deep Taoist tradition and the necessary reductionist language for Western practitioners. That dance is what yields the "pearls of reciprocity"—the philosophical gifts you get from the endeavor itself. On a much deeper, personal layer, we dove into the conversation of living one's true blueprint—that invisible path that keeps calling you—and the absolute non-negotiable commitment to staying engaged with your purpose, no matter what external role the world tries to pin on you (like "CEO"). Finally, we hit the essential travel principles. Ann gave a brilliant reminder about how much flying is a test of our fluids. To counter the hyper-dry, sterile air of planes, the trick isn't just plain water (which is a clearer that goes straight through), but what we call slow fluids or wet food (think congees, soups, stews) to ensure that constant, deep hydration. It also requires the mental discipline of non-busyness: cultivating stillness and focusing on your main job rather than jumping into "tourist mode." It's about being a "Fremen flyer" and absorbing the wisdom of a place by simply being still. If you're ready for a reminder to stay engaged with your deepest purpose and learn essential travel health principles, this episode is for you. Takeaways: [00:00:28] Herbal Action is Taste-Governed: In Classical Chinese Medicine, herbs act mainly through taste and the stomach's "flavor sensing," not chemical constituents alone. [00:03:46] The Yin-Yang Puzzle in Business: Balancing Taoist tradition with Western chemical language creates "pearls of reciprocity"—unexpected philosophical rewards. [00:04:21] Living Your True Blueprint: Stay aligned with your personal purpose and express it in any role, even as a CEO. [00:10:30] Travel's Primary Rule: Hydration: Air travel severely depletes fluids due to dry cabin air, making deep, constant hydration essential. [00:11:02] Mindful Travel: Cultivate Stillness: Avoid over-scheduling; cultivate stillness, meditate, and stay focused on your core purpose while traveling. [00:12:04] Classical Medicine's 30-Year Plan: Three stages—10 years of practice, 10 years of writing, and 10 years of mentoring new teachers. [00:17:11] Water is a "Clearer," Not a "Hydrator": Plain water flushes waste quickly but does not provide deep, lasting hydration. [00:17:55] The Power of Wet Food (Slow Fluids): Soups, congees, and stews support deep hydration through slow digestive absorption. Practical Engagement: Prioritize Slow Fluids: Especially before and during travel, replace plain water with "slow fluids" or wet foods like congees, porridges, soups, or stews to ensure deep, sustained hydration. Practice Mindful Travel: When you travel, limit your scheduled activities (e.g., "one museum" rule) to cultivate stillness, meditate, and focus on your core purpose rather than jumping into "tourist mode." Sip, Don't Gulp: If drinking plain water on a plane, keep it coming in small sips continuously throughout the flight, not in large, isolated glasses. Cover Your Skin: Treat flying like being a "Fremen flyer." Wear covering clothes to protect your skin and minimize moisture loss in the dry cabin air.

Send us a textWhat if clearer thinking, steadier balance, and deeper sleep start in your inner ear?In this episode, I sit down with Sheila Thelen, coach and founder, to unpack how vestibular training—originally refined with elite figure skaters—now helps veterans improve sleep, athletes recover from concussions, kids with ADHD sharpen focus, and older adults reduce fall risk.Sheila explains the powerful overlap between rehabilitation and performance, breaking down four areas where people see results quickly: balance, cognitive processing, spatial awareness, and sleep. We explore why “spin sports” train the brain differently than linear movement, how short, precise vestibular drills can calm the nervous system, and why sleep loss can quietly push people toward crisis.Along the way, Sheila shares real-world stories of recovery, resilience, and purpose—and why she chose impact overstaying in her “lane.” The science is deep, the tools are non-invasive, and the path forward is practical.If you've dealt with brain fog, balance issues, spatial confusion, or restless nights, this conversation offers a grounded, hopeful way forward.Stay unarmored, stay authentic, and stay mentally fit.

Ryan joins Tony to discuss the latest news and developments surrounding Celtic in Tuesday's edition of the morning briefing.
In this reflective end-of-year solo episode, Tonya shares her experiment with stepping away from alcohol and mind-altering substances, exploring what clarity, nervous system regulation, and intuitive refinement have revealed along the way. Rather than framing sobriety as an identity or moral stance, this conversation approaches it as an experiment in listening more closely to the body, the nervous system, and inner truth. Tonya weaves together personal history, cultural reflection, nervous system science, and subtle energetic awareness to examine how normalized habits shape our health, perception, relationships, and creativity. From social dynamics and “contact highs” to sleep, intuition, and spiritual depth, this episode invites listeners into honest self-inquiry as we move toward a new year with greater intention, sovereignty, and trust in the body's wisdom.Topics Covered:Exploring sobriety as an experiment in nervous system clarity rather than an identityHow alcohol impacts the nervous system, sleep, intuition, and emotional regulationSensitivity, co-regulation, and why certain environments feel louder or more draining when soberNavigating social situations, boundaries, and nervous system hygiene without substancesReflection questions for choosing habits that support clarity, creativity, and embodimentConnect with Tonya:Follow Tonya on Instagram: @tonyapapanikoloveSign up for Tonya's NewsletterRainbo.com and @rainbomushroomsTry Fungki Mushroom CoffeeTry Fungki Herbal Mushroom CoffeeInstructions to Win a Bundle of Rainbo Products - Leave us Ratings and Reviews: (Or watch the video instructions here) Go to Spotify and search “The Rainbo Podcast” Follow the Show and Rate the Show on Spotify, and take a screenshot Go to Apple Podcasts Search “The Rainbo Podcast” Scroll down past a few episodes until you get to the “Write a Review” section Write your review and screenshot before you hit Submit, as Apple's system can take a while to publish Send the Spotify screenshot and Apple review screenshot to info@rainbo.com Be sure to go back to Apple Podcasts and hit submit on your review We'll pull a winner at the end of the month once we verify that your ratings/review went through to win a bundle of tinctures!

In Episode 261, Asher reconnects with Dr. PI, a leader at the University of Louisville who recently moved from strength & conditioning coaching into administration. This conversation explores leadership, communication, and the perspective shifts that come after disruption.Dr. PI shares reflections on his recent promotion, his new office, and the season of life he's entered—one focused on refinement rather than accumulation. He opens up about a serious motorcycle accident that happened last year and how the recovery process became a mental, spiritual, and emotional turning point.We talk about:• Why this stage of life is about refining, not adding• What a motorcycle accident revealed about priorities• How to collaborate with professionals under pressure (even when you have knowledge)• The importance of respecting others' expertise, especially in crisis• Learning from athletes as a coach (it's a two-way street)• Reading body language and knowing when to stop talking• Why careers aren't always straight lines—sometimes they loop• The urgent/important matrix for decision-making• Why coaches need coaches (everyone needs advisors)• Navigating unexpected career shifts (like daily conversations with lawyers)Key Quote:"Earlier in our careers, it's about conquering, growing, adding, multiplying. At this stage, it's about refining. How do I make my processes, my thought patterns, my conversations, my relationships better?"This episode isn't about wins and losses. It's about how leaders think, how they communicate, and how they show up under pressure.If you're in a season of refinement, navigating recovery, or learning to lead with grace—this conversation is for you.Connect with Dr. PI: University of Louisville AthleticsSubscribe to It's My Time Podcast for weekly conversations with everyday people doing extraordinary things.

Send us a textA too‑good‑to‑be‑true interview hit our inbox and set off a quiet alarm: no voice, no video, just a text‑only “Teams chat” with a stranger pushing for speed. That uneasy feeling sparked a candid conversation about intuition—how it speaks through the body, why we miss it, and how to rebuild it so you can spot red flags without living on high alert.We share the anatomy of a gut check, from the science of the gut‑brain axis and those subtle sensations—tightness, warmth, dropping—to the life noise that drowns them out. Diet, stress, social media, and routine all blunt your inner signal. When you're overloaded, even obvious cues blur. That's why we pair real scam tells—shady domains, no face‑to‑face, rushed timelines, awkward language—with a practical reset: slow nasal breathing, short stillness, long walks, and cold exposure to bring the nervous system back to baseline. Clearer body equals clearer choices.We also zoom out to the spaces we live in. Clutter carries old energy and taxes attention. Cleaning a single room can lower mental load and lift intuition faster than another productivity hack. We talk about possessions that quietly become burdens, the pressure to use what you own, and the freedom that comes with choosing simplicity. From pausing on resume edits until the mind is calm, to insisting on verification before an interview, the throughline is the same: don't rush the moment your body asks for time.If you're navigating job searches, online “opportunities,” or just trying to hear yourself over the noise, this one will help you build discernment without hardening your heart. Listen, share with a friend who needs a gut check, and subscribe so you don't miss what's next. If this episode gave you a win, leave a quick review—it helps more people find the show.

Connect with us:Instagram: @successfulnursecoachesWebsite: www.thesuccessfulnursecoaches.comJoin our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thesuccessfulnursecoachIn this solo episode, Laura delivers one of the most honest and confrontational conversations the Successful Nurse Coach Podcast has ever held. After a behind-the-scenes moment with mentors that shook her perspective, she unpacks a core issue holding nurses back from real impact: the inability to receive. This episode explores how nursing culture conditions martyrdom, why under-earning is not ethical, and how learning to receive money, praise, and support is essential for leadership, sustainability, and changing healthcare. If this episode makes you uncomfortable, that is the point. Discomfort is where deconditioning begins.In this episode, Laura shares:Nurses do not have a money problem. They have a receiving problem.Nursing culture rewards overgiving, endurance, and martyrdom while discouraging receiving.Impact in private practice is not based on hours worked but on outcomes created.Underearning does not make nurses more compassionate. It makes them exhausted, resentful, and exploitable.Learning to receive is an ethical responsibility if you want to lead and create change.Money creates safety. Safety creates clearer thinking. Clearer thinking creates better care.Private practice and nurse coaching force growth by requiring nurses to receive without guilt.Martyrdom is not moral high ground. It is a business model, and nurses have been the product.Receiving allows you to give from excess, alignment, and regulation instead of depletion.You cannot heal healthcare while financially depleted and resentful.If nurses want to lead the next evolution of healthcare, they must unlearn martyrdom and master receiving.

If you've been scrolling lately, you've probably noticed lots of comet chatter about 3I/ATLAS. What's all the bruhaha about and what does it mean for you? I’ll cut through the cosmic fluff and make this simple. If you want to attend the Free Winter Solstice event on Sunday, 12/21 at 4pm ET, RSVP here to let me know. What Is 3I/ATLAS? Let's start with the basics. 3I/ATLAS is an interstellar comet, meaning it's not from our solar system. It's a cosmic traveler cruising at over 100,000 miles an hour. It will make its closest approach to Earth around December 19, 2025, which means around 170 million miles away. So yes, it's rare and worth paying attention to. But physically? You're fine. Humanity is fine. The planet is fine. Now spiritually… this is where things get interesting. People Are Lit Up About This Comet Astronomers love it because it's only our third known interstellar visitor after ‘Oumuamua and Borisov. But the spiritual community is lit up because of the timing, the symbolism, and the energetic ripples many intuitives are already feeling. Channelers are comparing notes. Astrologers are cross-referencing charts. Energy sensitives have that familiar “something's shifting” hum inside their chest. Think of 3I/ATLAS as a celestial tuning fork drifting through our sky, humming just enough that the sensitive folks among us feel the vibration before it even arrives. Many spiritual teachers call it a light-packed traveler carrying clarity, recalibration, and what some describe as “reset frequency.” Not in a dramatic destruction way, but in a gentle, rebalancing way. Think of it as the energetic version of straightening your crown and realigning your inner compass. It's as if the Universe is whispering, “Time to recalibrate.” What Does the Comet Offer? Potentially, so many good things come with this comet including, an inner reset, energetic balance, heightened intuition, a return to your aligned Self, and all sorts of positive upgrades in how you sense and navigate the world. The most important point, in my opinion? Nothing is happening to you because you're not a victim of 3I/ATLAS. Instead, you're being invited to partner with it. Symbolic Meaning Hidden in the Name Now let's discuss the metaphysics for a moment because “3I/ATLAS” is full of symbolic goodies. According to numerology, “3” is about creation. think of the cycle of birth, death, rebirth. It's the number that says something new is coming. Then the letter “I” points to intuition, identity, insight, and the observing Self. Put these together and you get creation plus consciousness. A cosmic reminder that you are not a passive passenger in your own life. You're a co-creator! What about “3rd Eye + Atlas” The third eye is your intuitive center, your inner vision, your ability to sense truth without proof. Atlas is the top vertebra that holds your head, the mythological guardian who carried the world, and the name we give to global maps. Suddenly 3I/ATLAS becomes a message about higher perception, energetic support, nervous-system alignment, and carrying a new level of awareness in the body. That's the kind of upgrade I can get behind. Why the Timing Matters Astronomically, the closest approach is December 19, 2025. Spiritually, many view the full 12/18–12/19 window as an energetic corridor. It’s a moment when life pauses just long enough for you to feel the subtle shift before the next level loads. And let’s not forget that 2025 is a nine year according to numerology, which is all about completion. Things naturally fall away, resolve, or wrap up. So the timing of this comet is pretty synchronistic, don’t you think? How Might 3I/ATLAS Affect You? • Clearer intuition • Emotional clearing • Heightened sensitivity • A desire to rest • Sudden clarity about what's ending • Fresh inspiration This comet is giving you time to ask yourself important questions such as: “Are your actions matching your intentions?” “Are you living as the person you say you want to be?” “What truth are you finally ready to honor?” The good news is there’s no judgment or no punishment, only clarity. Balance Masculine & Feminine Energy Another theme connected to 3I/ATLAS is the balancing of masculine and feminine energy, which are the divine polarities within you. Think of these opposites: • Drive and receptivity • Action and restoration • Doing and being • Protecting and allowing • Structure and flow When one side dominates, imbalance shows up in your body, your choices, your relationships. The comet's energy highlights what needs attention, like sunlight revealing dust on the bookshelf you swear was clean yesterday. Now don’t think 3I/ATLAS will do the shift for you, but it helps you see where the shift is ready and waiting. It shines clarifying light into your world, so you can make the upgrade and let your divine feminine rise. How to Work With the 12/18 Portal The practices don't need to be dramatic or ceremonial. Let them be simple: 1. Conduct a gentle review of the past year and ask: What is ending? What no longer resonates? What feels ready to be reborn? 2. Balance your masculine and feminine. When you take action, then be sure to rest. If you move, then afterwards stretch. Honor both your fire and your flow. 3. Third-eye alignment. You might try light meditation, intuitive journaling, or placing one hand on your heart and the other on your belly, while breathing slowly. 4. Neck and Atlas stretches. Consider chin tucks, shoulder rolls, gentle neck tilts. Tell your body, “I'm ready to carry awareness with ease.” or “Thank you for all that you do for me, I love you.” 5. Grounding. Take a slow walk outside in nature and pay attentionto your surroundings. Send roots down into the earth to connect with Mother Earth and everything she embodies. Then allow that energy to rise into you feet and up through all your chakras. So nourishing! What’s the Real Message of 3I/ATLAS Here's the bottom line. There's no dramatic upheaval coming. Instead, this comet acts as a reminder to say you're evolving, awakening, and rebalancing. And the good news is that the Universe is supporting every step. Think of this event as a powerful invitation to trust and strengthen your intuition, allow your divine feminine energy to rise and feel vibrantly alive and aligned. It's a gentle guide with impeccable timing. Cosmic synchronicity at its finest. As 3I/ATLAS moves through our sky on 12/18 and 12/19, take a moment to choose what this means for you. The power isn't out there in the sky or anywhere outside yourself. It's in you. It is you. 3I/ATLAS simply arrives at the perfect moment to help you remember your truth, your path, and your power. Are you ready to embrace what's next? I sure hope so! The post Is 3I/ATLAS Doom And Gloom Or A Positive Cosmic Upgrade? appeared first on Intuitive Edge.
In this powerful episode, I sit down with Corinna Bellizzi — an omega-3 expert, industry pioneer, and pro-planet health advocate who's spent over 20 years transforming essential fats. We explore resilience, health sovereignty, sustainability, and the nutrient most people are deficient in: omega-3s.1. Corinna's Story: Curiosity & GritCorinna's career wasn't built on luck, but on:Insatiable curiosityRefusing the first “no”She shared how being told she'd “never be a runner” led her to finish the Boston Marathon, showing her belief that most people are capable of far more than they think. Her superpower? Seeing possibility where others see barriers.2. Scaling a Tiny Omega CompanyCorinna grew one of the world's top omega-3 brands from under $1M to over $100M across 36 markets. Her approach combined sales mastery, education, science-first messaging, and sustainability advocacy. But even the best fish oil companies had ecological costs, leading her to algae — the original source of EPA and DHA.3. Fish Oil vs. AlgaeKey point: Fish don't make omega-3s — algae does. Algae-based omegas are:3x more bioavailable than fish oilFree from microplastics & heavy metalsEthical and sustainablePart of a regenerative system that helps the planetAt Orlo Nutrition, Corinna is pioneering polar lipid omega-3s, which the body absorbs far better than fish oil or krill.4. Signs of DeficiencyOmega-3 deficiency is common due to cooking oils, low fish intake, and nutrient-poor foods. Symptoms often hidden in “normal” struggles: brain fog, low mood, poor sleep, dry skin, inflammation, joint discomfort, cravings, hormonal imbalances, and slow recovery. Every cell needs omega-3s — without it, inflammation and cellular rigidity rise.5. Omega-3 Index TestThe Omega-3 Index Test measures EPA & DHA in red blood cells:Optimal: 8–12%Average American: 3–4%Corinna's result: 6.37% on two Orlo softgels daily, moving to three brings her into the optimal zone. Orlo includes two Omega-3 Index Tests in the first six months.6. Why Most Supplements FailLow doses, poor bioavailability, and synthetic forms mean many supplements don't work. Corinna explains why bioavailable omegas, methylated B vitamins, and quality greens are worth it — not for biohacking, but for basic human function.7. Investing in HealthWe reframed supplement cost:“Expensive compared to what? Prevention always costs less than correction.”Small, consistent investments in real food + smart supplementation save money and health long-term.8. Corinna's Four Health PillarsWhat you eatWhat you drinkHow you moveHow you sleepOmega-3s support cellular function, recovery, mood, hormones, sleep, and cognition. You don't need 30 supplements — just the right few consistently.Key TakeawaysOmega-3 deficiency is a hidden health crisisAlgae-based omegas are cleaner and more effective than fish oilPrevention is always cheaper than treatmentSmall, consistent health investments compound over timeListen to more episodes at makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcast, and YouTube.Listen to more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe to me on Spotify, Podcast, and YouTube so you never miss an episode!Join my Facebook Community: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.com Work with me: www.sherryshaban.com/transform Go deeper: www.makepeacewithfood.com Share your biggest takeaway and tag me on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn

Guys... we are about to close out another year! Time truly flys! In this episode I encourage you to pull back and seek God before December is up for what He has for you/your family in the new year ahead. And not only that, but how you can start putting it that vision into action so that dream doesn't become a wish but a reality lived out! God is with you friend. If He has shown you something, believe Him and run after it! Worship Our GodWebsiteInstagram
In today's episode, Dr. Killeen challenges you to do something most practice owners avoid—a year-end autopsy. Not the morbid kind, but an honest, third-person look at what worked, what fell short, and where your practice might be drifting without you noticing. He walks through the key questions to ask, why stepping back gives you better clarity, and how a simple 30-minute review can set you up for a stronger year ahead. Plus, he shares how communities like DSN can help you see your blind spots and move forward with confidence. A calm, practical episode to help you finish the year with intention.
There's something quietly powerful about the end of the year. Not the sparkle and rush of the Christmas season or the Pinterest perfect countdowns. But the hush that creeps in beneath it all if you let it.December, for me, isn't about resolutions or big reinventions. I'm not trying to change my life in a flurry of pressure and self-improvement. I'm trying to listen. I'm trying to land. I'm trying to make space, not just in my calendar, but in my mind, my home, my nervous system.Looking Back Before Looking ForwardEvery December, before I even think about what's next, I pause and look back. And not in a “Did I smash all my goals?” kind of way. That energy can stay in corporate-land as far as I'm concerned. This is more of a heart check. A quiet moment to ask:– What happened this year that really mattered?– What shifted — even slightly, that deserves noticing?– What parts of me feel stronger now? Softer? Clearer?I'm not chasing the highlights reel. I'm interested in the quiet wins. The emotional heavy lifting. The boundaries I held. The messy bits I got through. The growth that didn't come with a certificate or a like count, but left its mark just the same.Clearing Space: Physically, Emotionally, SpirituallyAs the year ends, I naturally start tidying corners of the home, but also corners of my mind. The kitchen drawer that hasn't closed properly since June gets sorted. So does the internal voice that's been whispering unhelpful things all year. I ask:– What did I carry too long?– What did I say yes to that didn't sit right?– What am I done pretending I need?I let those questions simmer while I potter about, sort through clothes, wipe down forgotten shelves. I don't need a formal ritual or a vision board. I just need time. Space. A bit of silence. That's where reflection lives, in the margins. In the not doing.Resetting the Rhythm (Not the Entire Life)I also take this time to check in on the rhythms we've built as a family. Especially around home education. What's working? What's feeling forced? What do we want to bring with us into the new year and what do we want to quietly leave behind?We talk about it as a family. My kids are part of this life, not just passengers in it. And I want them to grow up knowing that reflection isn't something you squeeze into a single night before New Year's, it's a muscle. A way of moving through the world with intention.The same goes for work. I ask:– Did I enjoy what I created this year?– Did my work support the life I want, or get in the way of it?– Am I still aligned with what I set out to do?If the answer is no, I don't panic, I just adjust, slowly and gently and with full permission to evolve.The Only Questions That MatterI don't set big goals anymore. I've let go of trying to overhaul myself every January. Instead, I ask better questions. Questions that centre my life, not my to-do list.– How do I want to feel next year?– What kind of energy do I want in my mornings?– What rhythms support my peace?– What's worth continuing and what's done now?I'm not interested in striving just for the sake of it. I want to live. Fully, deeply, and slowly. I want to keep choosing contentment over comparison, presence over perfection.This is EnoughIt's easy to get swept up in the idea that we should be doing more, earning more, achieving more by the time December rolls around. But I think that kind of thinking misses the point.I don't want a new year that starts with pressure. I want one that starts with peace. And the only way I know to get there is to end this one with intention. With stillness. With space to breathe.So I clear the clutter.I tidy my thoughts.I honour what this year held, even the bits that didn't go to plan.I forgive myself for the moments I fell short.I celebrate the ways I showed up.And I carry forward what still feels true.That's it. That's the practice.A New Year, Without the NoiseIf you're feeling the tug to close this year slowly, follow it.Let the world hustle. You can soften. You can quiet the noise. You can decide that your version of “success” doesn't need to come wrapped in urgency.There's no need for a glow-up and no need to reinvent yourself. You are allowed to enter the new year gently, with gratitude, clarity and a deep knowing that this life, the one you're already living, is worth honouring.Here's to a soft landing. And a slower, deeper start. To hear more, visit theslowlivingcollective.substack.com
Send us a textIn this episode, we dive into one of the most underestimated foundations of autoimmune healing and hair recovery: sleep.So many people insist they “function fine” on six hours, a midnight bedtime, or restless nights — but the body tells a very different story. When you finally experience restorative sleep, the kind that calms inflammation, regulates the immune system, stabilises cortisol, and gives hair follicles the safety signals they need to grow, everything begins to shift. Less shedding. Clearer skin. A calmer gut. A more resilient mood and nervous system. More stable energy.Sleep is not passive; it is a biologically active repair state. And it's during deep sleep and early-night slow-wave sleep that the body performs its most profound healing: detoxifying the brain via the glymphatic system, recalibrating immune cells, lowering inflammatory cytokines, and supporting the hair cycle's transition back into growth.In this Friday 5, I break down the five science-backed levers that make the biggest impact on sleep quality for those with autoimmune conditions or alopecia — from nervous-system nutrients like magnesium, L-theanine and phosphatidylserine, to vagal tone practices, to circadian alignment, blue-light protection, and the often-resisted but deeply transformative 10pm repair window, when most cellular, hormonal and follicular repair occurs.This episode is for you if you've been feeling wired-but-tired, waking at 3am, noticing seasonal shedding, or living in a constant state of “pushing through.”By the end, you'll understand not just what improves sleep, but why these strategies work — and how they support full-body repair on a physiological level.BodyBio Calm – magnesium and taurine formula to lower stress and support GABA balance

Microplastics are in most of the water we drink, but what does that mean for our health and wellbeing? In this episode of The Happier Life Project, host Gabby Sanderson sits down with Dr. Sherri “Sam” Mason, one of the world's leading researchers on plastic pollution, to uncover the truth about what's in our tap and bottled water. Together they explore how microplastics affect our bodies and minds, and the small but powerful steps we can take to protect ourselves and the planet. If you've been noticing conversations around microplastics and wondering what they mean for your health, or if you're simply trying to make more informed, empowered choices; this episode will give you a grounded, hopeful place to start. Dr. Mason's groundbreaking research not only revealed the widespread presence of microplastics in freshwater systems but also helped shape legislation like the Microbeads-Free Water Act. Her work has been featured across major outlets including the BBC, The Guardian, and The New York Times, sparking global awareness about the hidden costs of plastic pollution. In this episode, she explains how science is catching up to the scale of the problem, and why understanding it is the first step toward change. Beyond the science, this conversation is about empowerment. You'll hear how reconnecting and protecting the environment can ease stress, restore a sense of agency, and inspire resilience in the face of overwhelming headlines. Most importantly, you'll walk away with practical, realistic steps to reduce your exposure and consumption of microplastics; proving that small, consistent actions really do add up to a healthier body, a clearer mind, and a happier life.

We are pleased to share an episode from the Clearer Thinking Podcast featuring Open to Debate Founder Robert Rosenkranz in conversation with Spencer Greenberg. About this episode: What makes a forum truly open-minded rather than performative? When does listening change minds instead of just hardening identities? Are we teaching citizens to separate facts from frames? Do the best debates surface values as well as evidence? How can we reward calm argument over outrage economics? What reforms reduce polarization without dulling real disagreement? Should any topic be off-limits in a free society? Is philanthropy giving back—or building what's missing? Should generosity optimize impact or express the values we want to grow? How much risk is acceptable when the upside is transformative? Robert Rosenkranz is a dedicated philanthropist, an advocate for intellectual engagement, and respected commentator on philanthropy. He founded Delphi Capital Management and championed the renowned Open to Debate debate series. Robert's latest book, The Stoic Capitalist, explores the intersection of ancient Stoic wisdom and modern capitalism. When he's not crafting ideas, Robert dedicates his time to supporting the arts, advancing education, and contributing to public policy through The Rosenkranz Foundation.

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss NVIDIA's ever expanding autonomy ambitions and the fracturing relationship between Waymo and Uber, which may signal the end of one of the industry's most-watched partnerships. Jensen Huang's latest GTC announcements further signaled that NVIDIA is moving beyond supplying compute to potentially building their own full autonomy stack and licensing it. Grayson and Walt trace this shift back to the early days NVIDIA's automotive division and the evolution of its Hyperion platform, which is now positioned not only to power OEMs but also to compete directly with the very companies that rely on its GPUs to enable autonomous driving systems.While NVIDIA appears poised to compete with its customers, Waymo and Uber's partnership is showing signs of unraveling after Uber announced plans to deploy Lucid/Nuro autonomous vehicles in San Francisco next year, directly challenging Waymo on in their home market.Grayson likens the move to “divorce court,” raising questions about how the companies will divide the Austin and Atlanta markets, where Waymo currently operates exclusively on Uber's platform. The episode closes with updates on Aurora's strategic pivot and the Foreign Autonomy Desk, covering Baidu's expansion in Hong Kong, Uber's European ambitions, and continued progress in Tesla's FSD rollout.Episode Chapters0:00 NVIDIA's Autonomy Ambitions 7:13 Waymo & Uber's Fracturing Relationship9:35 Nuro's Upcoming Launch on Uber in San Francisco 11:51 Gemini is Coming to Waymo14:05 Boston's Autonomous Vehicle Blunder15:43 Seattle's Challenging Political Environment 17:34 Political Coalitions 19:36 Aurora's Pivot25:32 Tesla Robotaxi / FSD 14 Updates30:04 Foreign Autonomy Desk33:08 Next WeekRecorded on Thursday, October 30, 2025--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

Hail Yes! A Detroit Free Press Podcast About University of Michigan Sports
Michigan football just keeps taking care of business as its path to the College Football Playoff continues to solidify. Tony and Andrew open the show by discussing Michigan's win over Michigan State and how the Wolverines were able to beat the Spartans while not playing their best. Freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood didn't even crack 100 yards against MSU but the Wolverines still comfortably won. Is that cause for concern long-term? Then the guys discuss how more and more, it's looking like Michigan's entire season is going to come down to the final week of the season when they host Ohio State at the Big House. Tony and Andrew also preview the Purdue game and make predictions for the game before a quick look at the Michigan basketball program who is 1-1 in the exhibition slate. Are the expectations around this Michigan team the highest they've been in a decade? Read all about the Michigan Wolverines by heading to our website at freep.com/sports.

New research from the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden shows that your brain interprets certain aromas as taste, activating the same regions as sugar Retronasal smell — odor molecules rising from your mouth during eating — creates flavor, while orthonasal smell (sniffing) detects outside odors Functional MRI scans revealed that the insula, the brain's taste cortex, responds to sweet-associated aromas like vanilla or strawberry as if sugar were present Everyday experiences, such as food tasting bland during a cold, highlight the difference between taste vs. flavor and the role of retronasal airflow Sweet-linked aromas can help reduce added sugar in foods by enhancing perceived sweetness, though they do not change calorie or glucose content
