When people with ADHD struggle to start, return to, or finish a task, their inaction is frequently mislabeled as laziness, poor motivation, or chronic procrastination. In reality, the obstacle is rarely about logistics or effort. It stems from the emotional pre-work required just to get to the starting line. Brendan Mahan, an ADHD coach, speaker, host of the ADHD Essentials podcast, and author of Overcoming the Wall of Awful, joins Emily to talk about the emotional barriers that turn ordinary demands into overwhelming roadblocks. TAKEAWAYS Task paralysis is driven primarily by emotional labor and accumulated negative memories rather than simple executive dysfunction or laziness. The emotional work required to face an anxiety-provoking task is invisible from the outside, which often cause those around you to mistake genuine freeze states for willful procrastination. Smashing through emotional barriers using eleventh-hour panic and anger damages internal self-esteem and strains personal relationships. Putting a door in an emotional barrier involves shifting short-term states using external scaffolding such as body doubling, high-interest music, or novel environments. Climbing an emotional barrier requires a balance of active cognitive processing and passive mind-wandering to allow the brain's default mode network to metabolize stress. Healthy accountability separates functional impairments from moral worth by treating ADHD symptoms with the same matter-of-fact compassion as an asthma flare-up or chronic physical condition.

This week, we reflect on Dolly Parton's passing and her legacy in the region.Also, the Adaptive Climbers Festival at Kentucky's Red River Gorge feels like home for climbers with disabilities from around the world. And, a new book spotlights Appalachian plants and encourages readers to get in touch with nature. You'll hear these stories and more this week, Inside Appalachia.
In July 1967, only 213 people had ever stood on the summit of Denali. When an inexperienced climbing team was denied a permit, the National Park Service made an unusual decision: merge them with a stronger team of strangers and send all twelve climbers up the mountain together. At first, everything goes according to plan. But as two powerful weather systems begin converging over Alaska, a series of decisions—some debated to this day—leave climbers high on North America's tallest peak just as one of the most violent mountain storms ever recorded arrives.Were the climbers warned? Why did they continue toward the summit after spending a night exposed above 19,000 feet? And could anyone have survived what happened next?In this Disaster Strikes episode, we examine the 1967 Denali Disaster, the controversy that followed, and the lessons that forever changed mountaineering on North America's highest mountain.00:00 Disaster Strikes Intro00:48 Lost Above 19,000 Feet02:12 A Team That Was Never Supposed to Exist05:02 The Long Approach to Denali08:04 A Storm Begins to Form10:05 Two Summit Teams12:07 A Dangerous Decision14:35 The Last Radio Call17:08 Waiting Out the Storm20:18 The Search Begins22:05 What Really Happened?25:40 Lessons That Changed Denali Forever28:20 Legacy of the SevenReferences — The 1967 Denali DisasterPrimary & Contemporary SourcesAmerican Alpine Journal. “Mount McKinley Tragedy and Resulting Expedition.” American Alpine Journal, 1968.https://publications.americanalpineclub.org/articles/12196811702/North-America-United-States-Alaska-Mount-McKinley-Tragedy-and-Resulting-ExpeditionAccidents in North American Mountaineering. “Alaska, Mt.

A promotion can feel like progress.But if it gives you more responsibility, more stress, and only a slightly bigger paycheck, you have to ask what you are really gaining.In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why corporate promotions can become golden distractions for ambitious people who ultimately want ownership, freedom, and control over their income.A bigger title can feed the ego.A bigger workload can drain the energy you need to build something of your own.And if your best thinking is always being used to grow someone else's equity, your personal upside stays capped.In this episode, you'll learn:• Why promotions can increase responsibility faster than compensation• How corporate titles can distract you from the pursuit of ownership• Why protecting your time and energy matters when building a side business• How shifting from employee thinking to founder thinking changes your long-term upsideThe truth is simple:A better title is not the same thing as a better future.Know what you are working toward.Protect the energy you need to build.Use your skills to create an asset you actually own.The biggest promotion may be the moment you stop waiting for someone else to move you up the ladder and start building one of your own.Your Network is your NETWORTH!Make sure to add me on all SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS:Instagram: https://jo.my/paulalex2024Facebook: https://jo.my/fbpaulalex2024YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGhDAD1JyGGzSQUPD9lc9HQLinkedIn: https://jo.my/inpaulalex2024Looking for a secondary source of income or want to become an entrepreneur?

December 19th, 2022; the last time Ryan Jenks and I sat down for TCM episode 29. Now nearly four years and almost 100 episodes later, we sit down again; evolved humans with new projects, new lives, and the same sense of obsession over what we're building. I flew out to Ryan's hometown in Washington with all my studio equipment to record this conversation in person at the HowNOT2 headquarters.Since we last spoke, Ryan has built HowNOT2 into a real business — an online retail store with a physical storefront and roughly a dozen employees to make it all run. HowNOT2 has now become a full media, testing, and retail operation. Ryan sees his store as a direct response to the frustrations climbers experience when ordering gear from the big online retailers: shipping delays, poor customer service, wrong items, less than ideal communication. Every internal system he's building exists to solve one of those problems from the inside so the customer never has to deal with it. And he's done it without compromising the mission that started it: putting hard data behind climbing gear that has always relied on assumption and tradition. His long term vision? The retail store is here to fund the continued expansion of his Youtube channel and the science behind testing gear.In this conversation we go deep on the business behind HowNOT2 — how he thinks about scaling, hiring, and building the systems that make his retail store thrive. We talk about product development, from the drill-powered ascender he's partnered with in China to his ambitions for making his own line of gear. We get into the philosophy that drives everything he does and talk honestly about the cost — the burnout, the personal money still going in, and the 1,000 decisions that got him here.#rockclimbing #climbing #climbinggearThanks to our sponsors!LIVSN DesignsCheckout Their Ecotrek Trail Pants HERE:Use Code "TCM15" At Checkout for an extra 15% OFF Your OrderHelp Support The Show & Unlock The Ad-Free Podcast HEREResources:HowNOT2 Store (The Best Climbing Store Online)
From a young age, Esther Colwill, a former partner at Deloitte and now country head for Australia at Korn Ferry, dreamt of climbing the highest peaks on each of the seven continents, including, of course, Mount Everest. Colwill succeeded, emerging with critical lessons that have helped her in both her private and professional life. On this week’s episode, BOSS editor Sally Patten finds out how having a goal outside work spurred on this executive’s professional career. This podcast was sponsored by Aussie Broadband.

Back in 1988, CBS gave us Garfield: His 9 Lives, an anthology special where our favorite lasagna enthusiast got to be a caveman, a pampered Egyptian god-cat, and an honest-to-goodness astronaut fending off an interstellar war fleet. Ambitious! Mythic, even! Then in 2006, Lucky Jump Games and The Game Factory looked at that legacy, borrowed the exact same title for a Game Boy Advance platformer, and said: actually, what if his nine lives were a farm, a haunted house, a circus, a sewer, a tree, an alley, an obedience school, and a lab? No pyramids. No space combat. Just Garfield, freshly stuffed from an eating binge, suffering eight increasingly damp nightmares about locations you could reach on foot from his own kitchen. Climbing out of Garfield's nightmare to help us survey the damage is Derek B Gayle, who hosts or co-hosts what feels like an ever-multiplying stable of shows including Walloping Websnappers, Gimmicks, Skreeonk!, and, at this point, so many other podcasts that keeping an accurate list may violate several laws of podcast physics. If Garfield hates Mondays, Derek looked at that same feeling and apparently decided the correct response was to start four more podcasts to fill the time. So raid the fridge, settle in for a night you won't remember fondly, and let's find out if Garfield and His Nine Lives earned its spot next to the caveman, the pharaoh, and the astronaut, or if it should've stayed exactly the kind of dream you forget the second your alarm goes off. Learn such things as: Are names of things even really that important? Why would you ever try to save your mortal enemy? Can you be surprised by anything, or anyone, that Garfield runs across? And so much more! You can find Derek @DerekBGayle on Bluesky, Instagram, and other social media platforms that may or may not exist when this was posted, hear him on other podcasts on the Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective such as Gimmicks, Walloping Websnappers, Lee Carvallo's Podding Challenge, Skreeonk!, and Falling with Style.

Joining us this week are the cohosts of a rival British Podcast, Backseat Climbing. Originally they came to fame when they humorously slandered half of climbing on a subsequently deleted pod, but they meant well and a lot of water has disappeared under the bridge since then. Solly has been on the pod twice before and is one of the best British Boulderers of all time, Matt is also a strong climber and has an incredible knowledge for climbing and climbing history, between them they have some great hot takes they wanted to chuck at us. I was expecting to be sent sprawling sideways whilst I desperately tried to prevent our cancellation but actually it was all good stuff, we had a great time.

Joey is the wildly popular content creator and Instagram personality known for his direct, no-BS take on dating, relationships, and real life, and the energy between these two is absolutely unmatched from the first second.They get into everything: how Joey went from posting thirst traps to becoming the person millions of people DM when they're going through a breakup, what it actually feels like to carry that kind of responsibility, and why staying authentic online sometimes means being willing to be completely cringe. They swap divorce and dating stories (spoiler: Joey has a blind date tonight), debate who should always pick up the check, and break down the unwritten rules of texting and ghosting.Plus: they are officially launching a cooking series together.

Peter Wang is co-founder and Chief AI and Innovation Officer at Anaconda, a company he helped start in 2012 after years of working as a software developer and consultant. In this episode, Peter draws on Anaconda's early days and the entrepreneurship lessons he shares with scientists and engineers at Cornell to explain what technical people need to learn when they launch a company. We talk about learning to ask better questions instead of rushing to provide answers, recognizing the limits of what you know, and treating yourself as an investor when deciding whether an idea is worth pursuing. Peter also explains his approach to customer discovery, why employees are investors too, and how aspiring founders can practice entrepreneurship by building something — however small — that someone will actually pay for.

Episode 600. On August 21st the Modern Warfare 4 early access beta, the WARDOGS closed beta, and Call of Duty NEXT all land on the same day — and the two games are asking for wildly different amounts of money. We go through everything Activision is cramming into the MW4 beta: a playable campaign mission called Entrenched, six multiplayer maps, the return of Ground War, and a brand new Warzone Resurgence map called Zodiac. Then we put odds on whether any of it actually works over a single weekend. Spoiler: 20%. Omnimovement is gone. We get into what replaced it, whether removing it was a gameplay decision or a marketing one, and why "you can climb pipes now" is the funniest thing Infinity Ward has ever put in a press release. On the WARDOGS side: $39.99 Early Access on September 10, over a million Steam wishlists, and a promise of no in-game monetization that came out of one very bad Reddit post. We argue that the promise is a mistake — and that the most consumer-friendly thing a game can do is just be good. Plus DMZ2, aim assist, and why Infinity Ward is about to be spread way too thin. 0:00 - Intro — 600 episodes 2:09 - Patreon free trials all August 4:02 - Patron hangout: August 28th 5:30 - Two betas, one Friday 6:49 - MW4 beta dates and the pre-order wall 7:44 - A campaign mission in a beta — a CoD first 10:23 - The battle dad theory 13:24 - Discord Nitro gets you in free 15:28 - All six multiplayer maps 16:06 - Ground War is back 20:24 - Zodiac: a new Resurgence map in the beta 23:56 - Modes, and the ones held back 25:33 - 19 weapons and a fake pre-order camo 26:59 - "It's gonna be a buggy fucking disaster" 28:51 - Putting the odds at 20% 31:13 - Why I win either way 33:23 - No more omnimovement 33:48 - Climbing pipes is just a ladder 35:58 - Was omnimovement actually better? 40:22 - Mantling as the Warzone middle ground 43:06 - What actually makes you a casual? 51:12 - WARDOGS 51:50 - Closed beta August 21–23 53:30 - Three maps at launch?

Read transcriptLet's talk about the year 2007, when Ubisoft looked at Konami's TMNT license, going up for grabs after three straight beat-em-ups, and said “yeah, we'll take it,” the video game equivalent of adopting somebody else's very large, very established pet. They tied the whole thing to Imagi's brand new fully CGI turtle movie and then, in an act of scheduling chaos I can only respect, shipped the game three entire days before the film hit theaters. Bold! Confusing! Possibly the result of someone losing a calendar! And then, because apparently one platform was never going to cut it, Ubisoft just kept going. PlayStation 2! GameCube! Xbox 360! Wii! PC! A PlayStation 3 version that got paraded around at trade shows like a prize pony and then quietly put out to pasture, never to be seen again! And just when you think the roster's full, Nintendo DS and PSP roll in with an entirely separate game wearing the same name tag, because why make one turtle game when you could make several turtle games and let the consumer sort it out. Also, bonus points to whoever in marketing decided the title needed zero subtitles, zero colons, zero numbers, just “TMNT,” like it's the only one that's ever existed. Confidence! Climbing out of the sewer to help me survey this multi-console fever dream is Jeremy Powers, host and creator of the Zenspath Entertainment Network, a man who apparently collects retro hardware, works as an engineer, and still finds time to run a podcast, which is either elite time management or a full refusal to acknowledge the concept of a day off. So track down whichever version of this thing actually ended up in your house back in 2007, because statistically there's a good chance it wasn't the same one as your neighbor's, and let's find out if TMNT earned its spot in the turtle hall of fame, or if it should've stayed a trade show prototype. Learn such things as: Do we ever stop to think that maybe the people making these games knew what they were doing all along? Will we ever get that chance to see Splinter and Iroh together? How much retreading is acceptable when you're the new guy making things? And so much more! You can find Jeremy on YouTube @Zenspathcom and of course at the Zenspath Entertainment Network.

This past week was a pretty good week all things considered! I went for a cool bike tour of "dark history" around the city on Saturday! The day before I got to play mini golf with some good friends of mine too and we spent the whole time reminiscing on some shenanigans from many years ago. Lots of alphabet soup was being eaten at the time. I also share some of my thoughts on the recent cannabis legislative changes in Texas. It's truly insane, but on the other hand, pack prices are likely going to increase down there! I hope you're having a good day whenever and wherever you happen to listen to this! Support the show

The host interviews Coach Egypt Glover, a 26-year-old new varsity head coach at Creative Connections Arts Academy in North Highlands, California, who shares his path from growing up in South Central LA in a sports-focused family to playing travel basketball, attending Merced College, and gaining early unpaid experience as a student assistant under coach Bill Russell. After high school he built a box-truck logistics business (now a four-vehicle fleet pursuing a fifth), started a security company serving about 11 sites, and purchased a fourplex with plans for transitional housing. Glover explains how research, commitment, passion, and team-building—crediting his wife Lauryn—drove his entrepreneurship, and how networking led to coaching roles from middle school head coach to varsity assistant to JV head coach. He outlines his coaching philosophy emphasizing fundamentals, defense, buy-in, grades/behavior/practice, calm leadership, and winning on and off the court.00:00 Meet Coach Glover01:15 South Central Roots03:12 High School Turning Point03:57 Entrepreneur Detour06:04 First Coaching Breaks08:03 Middle School Culture Build10:22 Climbing to Varsity13:43 New Head Coach Mission14:47 Business Deep Dive18:01 Trucking to Fleet Growth20:41 Security Company Scaling22:21 Real Estate Wealth Play25:40 Business Mindset Blueprint29:20 Coaching Pay and Purpose31:22 Networking Over Job Boards33:40 High School Sports Boom34:24 Breaking Into Coaching35:38 Defining Coaching Greatness39:53 Head Coach Reality Check41:23 Building Staff and Culture45:40 Receiving Feedback Well49:08 Fall Priorities Fundamentals52:03 Managing Emotions and Refs56:39 Identity and Burn Boats59:47 Changing Minds and Pruning01:02:38 Closing Thanks and Next Steps
What if the hardest thing you have ever been through is not something that happened to you - but something that was always going to make you? Sara Schulting Kranz was blindsided by divorce, betrayal, single motherhood, and the complete collapse of the life she had built. She was 40, across the country from her family, with no career, no clear path, and three boys watching her figure it out. She did not go around it. She developed a five-stage framework for walking through it - and has since used it with Fortune 500 executives, professional athletes, and a blind female para-athlete she guided rim to rim in 24 hours. This episode is about what it actually takes to get through the thing that looks like it is going to break you.SUMMARY & GUEST INTROIf you are standing at the edge of a change you did not choose - a divorce, a career collapse, a loss, a life that no longer fits - Sara Schulting Kranz has walked the canyon you are looking into. She is a bestselling author, keynote speaker, certified executive coach, and elite adventurer who has spent 32 years building and living her five-stage framework for navigating change. Her book is called Walk Through This. Her tagline is 'The way out is forward.' And in this episode, she brings the full weight of her own story and her decades of work guiding others to help you understand exactly where you are in the change process - and what to do next.INSIDE THE EPISODEThe Labor Day Weekend That Changed Everything. Sara was beyond rock bottom. She had moments of wanting to end her life. Her friends took her to Sequoia National Park, a friend put rocks in her pack, and she climbed to an outcropping of rock, looked out at the valley below, and felt completely disconnected from the problems she had been carrying for a year. That was the moment everything shifted - from 'I am a victim' to 'I am going to thrive on the other side of this.'What We Fear Is Our Greatest Success. Stage one of Sara's framework is approaching the change - and the biggest resistance most people feel is not actually to the difficulty ahead. It is to the success that might be waiting for them. Sara breaks down why that is, what it looks like, and why courage is the only thing that develops confidence.Blame as a Form of Control. In stage two - descending into the change - blame shows up almost every time. Sara explains why: when everything feels out of control, blame gives people the illusion of getting some control back. The move out of blame and into ownership is where the real transformation begins.The Three Types of People Going Through Change. The wait and seer. The resistor. And the let's goer. Sara shares why high-achieving women are constantly assumed to be let's goers - and why that assumption is one of the most costly ones made about us. You cannot pour from an empty cup. Taking care of yourself is not optional. It is the only real leadership move.Every Time She Does the Hard, It Gives Her Permission to Do the Other Hard. Sara sold her house and 98% of her possessions in 2017. She went from 4,200 square feet to 800. She has spent at least seven nights alone in the wilderness every year since. She hiked the John Muir Trail for 22 days in 2020. Not because she had to - but because choosing the hard thing on purpose builds the resilience to face the hard things that choose you.With My Last Breath. Sara's mother was her best friend. She died in 2022. They used to talk about regret. When Sara thinks about what matters, it always comes back to one thing: when I take my last breath, I want to know I lived it my way. This is the question she leaves every listener with.RESOURCES & LINKSBook: Walk Through This - Sara Schulting Kranz: https://saraschultingkranz.com/Sara Schulting Kranz Website: https://saraschultingkranz.com/Email Sara: Sara@SaraSchultingKranz.comLinkedIn: Sara Schulting Kranz: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sara-schulting-kranz/ ERICA'S RESOURCES & LINKSStart small with me inside HER Jumpstart:https://her-collective.mn.co/plans/1985289?bundle_token=60b2c61d62213cdbd16d437cdc0e4204&utm_source=manual

The Most Haunted City On Earth | Presented by The Savannah Underground
Join us on Patreon! It's the best way to support this podcast! www.patreon.com/hauntedcitypodcastThere is a town in West Virginia called Booger Hole, and people kept disappearing from it.In the final episode of Haunted South, Madison and Chris head into Southern Appalachia for three stories out of Tennessee, North Carolina, and West Virginia. Dark woods, old rules, and a mountain range where the folklore is not decoration. It is instruction.First up: the Buckner Witch. Around 1865, a small woman named Polly Brewington arrived in Standing Stone, Tennessee, dressed head to toe in black. She took a job as housemaid for the Buckner family, fell for Alex Buckner, and then things went sideways in a way that is genuinely hard to believe. Climbing into their bed at night. Ripping the covers off. Having her brothers corner Margaret Buckner in an alley. She was finally banished, and she died not long after under circumstances no record can explain. In the middle of her son's second birthday party, Margaret Buckner went blank, stared into the distance, and announced, "Polly Brewington is dead and now she comes to torment me." Nobody could ever explain how she knew.Polly never left. Margaret spent the rest of her life swinging brooms and later a cane at a woman in black who kept showing up in her house, in her bedroom, and eventually at her own funeral.Then we head to Roan Mountain on the Tennessee and North Carolina line, where people have been hearing a choir in the wind since the 1700s. Some hear angels rehearsing for Judgment Day. Others hear screaming. We get into the Cloudland Hotel, the white line painted down the middle of the dining room to separate legal liquor from illegal liquor, the geologist who described a sound like a thousand bees, and the young man who took shelter in a cave during a thunderstorm and came out with his clothes bleached white.And then Booger Hole. Clay County, West Virginia. A stonemason vanished in 1883 carrying 300 dollars. A watchmaker vanished from the schoolhouse in 1897 and left a blood trail to the creek. An old woman named Lacey Ann Boggs was shot in the back of the head while knitting, and the man accused of it told the squire she called him with a witch call that made him fly through his window like a bird and carry her home on his back. By 1917 the county had had enough. One hundred and fifty armed men stormed the jail, shot the building up, dynamited five houses, and nailed a hand written notice to the trees listing exactly who had ten days to leave and who had thirty.Booger Hole has been quiet ever since. Except for the riders you can hear but never see, and the woman in white with the long black hair who wails along the paths at night.Plus a viewer submitted video that we are not fully convinced about, and a conversation about why "don't look in the trees," "if you hear your name called in the woods, you didn't," and "if you hear whistling at night, you didn't" are rules worth keeping.Got a personal ghost story and want it read on the show?

This January, four big AI × Pharma tools deals were announced at the huge JPM Pharma conference that takes over San Francisco every year. OpenAI-backed Chai Discovery (now worth $4B) was somehow at the heart despite being all of 2 years old. The Science team is proud to bring you the first podcast with cofounder Matt McPartlon and product lead Neil Patil to tell the full story! Editor's note: not to be confused with Chai AI, which was another top pod of ours.Pharma suddenly doing big AI tools dealsFor the non-pharma people, JPM is JP Morgan's annual conference for pharma deal-making that takes over San Francisco for a week in January with hundreds of side events, etc. It's a big thing. Tools deals for pharma are also a big (new) thing: companies that start as AI for Pharma usually end up building their own drug pipelines instead, and the reason is something like this: convincing pharma to use your tool requires proof that your tool works. Proof means good targets, maybe with good clinical validation. If you have that, then it's easier to raise money (with a known, if long path to commercialization) or sell (e.g payment in biobucks) for a specific target than it is to sell to lots of companies on a promise that it will work across their portfolios. The “we'll just partner / build our own drug” optionality proved to be the only good path up until January. What changed? In short, the tools got good enough for drug design teams to trust.Good-enough-to-trust unlocks the ability to scale discovery: get more, better candidates into the lab and animal trials faster. More screening for toxicity, better delivery, etc. This means that what you push to the clinic is more likely to succeed.Tools also unlock new capabilities: mechanisms that are very hard or impossible to develop using lab-based discovery. Designing an antibody that precisely triggers a very specific molecular cascade takes many years of trial and error. Designing bi-specific antibodies (that bind to two different proteins) is similarly difficult. Good design tools can unlock this.RJ: The fact that the quality of the model has jumped means you're enabling things you just plain couldn't do. So it's a step change. It's not an efficiency argument at all, or not so much.Matt: Yeah, exactly. It's kind of interesting, even for us — it took me a while to believe in the thesis, actually. I talked to Josh for months before Chai started... It's like, can I beat a mouse, and then can I do what mice can't do? And then how many levels of interaction can you just keep building on top of that?Everyone playing in the structural / binding space has an angle here, and some will be better than others, but Chai is pointing to a different unlock: getting good molecules right out of the gate (meaning they don't then need as much lab work) means that the iteration time is faster. This turns science into engineering: you can design your systems to reduce friction and hill climb towards one-shotting molecules all the way to the clinic.This, per-se, is not a new thesis: a16z articulated a version of this in 2020. What has changed is that structural models became binding models (how well doesn't this molecule bind to this molecule, aka “binding affinity). Binding models unlock design, which has been steadily improving. Chai's observation is that for engineering problems the best product tends to win, and good technology is a necessary but not sufficient condition. Photoshop for moleculesWith that in mind Chai has invested heavily in partnerships that allow them to learn from their Pharma counterparts. What is kind of cool about working so closely and supporting so many of these partners is we get to really learn about what is the stuff that would be helpful in research. So rather than doing research in a vacuum, based on what would hypothetically be cool, we're able to do informed research based on what our partners have just been organically asking us for help with.— Neil Patil, (Chai product lead)This means better UX, such as a molecule editor that is more like a CAD or graphics design program than a chatbot.Their approach has paid off: since June, Chai has announced three more major deals: Lilly, Novartis, argenx, plus an expansion of their Eli Lily program. This episode is too full of quotable moments for a short blog, so tune in to learn about * Why protein tokens have the highest downstream value of any token * Climbing levels of abstraction as models improve * How Pharma, VC, and research are all just portfolio optimization * How better tech changes the whole portfolio * How relentless focus on simplicity leads to scalePlus much more!

She reveals her personal and professional experience in overcoming self-doubt and how these lessons form the foundation of her coaching. Simone provides valuable insights into her "REAL" method, which outlines practical steps for achieving self-respect, embracing failures, and living without limits. Striking quotes such as, "Confidence is a skill… it doesn't happen overnight," offer listeners a fresh, liberating perspective on self-worth and the power of positive self-dialogue.Key Takeaways:Confidence must be consciously developed and is comparable to learning any new skill—constant, intentional practice is vital.External validation is not a substitute for internal acceptance; prioritizing self-respect is crucial for personal growth.Techniques like the "REAL" method offer structured ways to build self-esteem and set personal boundaries.Failures should be perceived as learning opportunities, not final judgments on your capabilities.Mindful awareness of one's inner dialogue can significantly impact mental well-being and confidence.Timestamp Summary0:02 Building Confidence by Changing Self-Perception5:16 Overcoming Self-Doubt and Embracing a Life Without Limits11:02 Building Confidence by Changing Self-Talk and Embracing Failures15:17 Elevate Your Summer Wardrobe With Quince's Timeless Essentials17:22 Building Unshakable Confidence Through Self-Respect and Resilience24:43 Mindset Hacks: Control, Alt, Delete for Positive Thinking28:30 Finding Fulfillment Through Everyday Acts of Kindness32:11 The Impact of Societal Pressures on Self-Image and Confidence34:24 Overcoming Self-Doubt and Embracing Personal Worth39:45 The Power of Positive Self-Talk and Affirmations42:40 Building Real Confidence Through Self-Compassion and ClarityResources:Website: Simone KnegoPodcast: Her Unshakable ConfidenceBooks:"The Extraordinary Unordinary You""Real Confidence" (RealConfidenceBook.com)Social Media:Instagram: @simoneknegoSponsors of this episodeQuinceQuince is not just apparel.
