The longer you own a business…the easier it should get, right?Well, Nicole and Jesse aren't so sure they agree.
For episode 778 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Gleb Morgachev, Co-Creator of Gonka, an open-source decentralized AI network designed to make high-performance AI compute more accessible and efficient. Throughout the episode, Brandon and Gleb explore how Gonka turns computational power into useful AI work, its approach to Proof of Compute, how decentralized networks can verify AI inference, where decentralized infrastructure still competes with centralized cloud providers, and what the future could look like when access to GPU compute is coordinated by an open network rather than a single company.
Emmy winner Angela C. Santomero ("Blue's Clues", "Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood") talks about reviving "Super Why!" nearly 20 years after its premiere for the new animated family series "Super Why's Comic Book Adventures". It premieres Monday Oct. 5 on PBS KIDS.
Welcome to a new episode of A Spark of Awareness.This week, I want to talk about something that has been a major theme in my own entrepreneurial journey: business partnerships, co-founders, collaboration, and trust.For a long time, I wore what I now recognize as the mask of the lone wolf.“I'm better by myself. I know what to do. I don't need anyone.”I also wore the masks of the high achiever, the strong woman, and the person who could handle everything alone.Maybe you recognize yourself in some of these.The interesting thing is that these identities aren't necessarily bad. At some point in our lives, they probably helped us. They became ways of protecting ourselves and creating a sense of safety. Being strong, independent and self-reliant can take us very far.But what protects us at one stage of our life can become a limitation at another.And that is what I have been discovering in my business.When independence becomes a limitationOver the past three years, I have become very good at building things independently.I created a business where I own my time, choose who I work with, decide how I work and have a lot of control over where I put my energy.There is a lot of freedom in that.But I also started to see the other side of it.I had become very comfortable being in charge, but I hadn't learned equally well how to rely on others, receive support and build something with an equal.There is a big difference between working with a team member and working with a true partner.When you hire someone, there is still a hierarchy. You are ultimately the person making the decisions. You have authority, responsibility and control.But with a business partner or co-founder, you have to meet each other as equals.You can't simply use authority or money to make things happen. You have to communicate, negotiate, trust, share responsibility and create something together.And that has been one of my biggest personal and professional challenges.The deeper question: Can I trust others?This has made me look beyond business strategy.Because the real question isn't simply:“Should I have a business partner?”The deeper question is:“Can I trust another person enough to build with them?”And if not, why?For me, this question has connected to a lot of deeper inner work around trust, control, boundaries and my relationship with power.I realized that I had created a narrative that working with powerful people—particularly powerful men—could mean losing my own power.So I protected myself by creating distance.But that also meant I was limiting myself from collaborating with amazing people who had their own power, sovereignty and integrity.The problem wasn't necessarily other people.It was my own capacity to trust, to collaborate and to remain grounded in myself while being in relationship with someone equally powerful.That required me to rewrite an old story.You can go faster alone. But can you go further together?One of the biggest stories I had to examine was this:“If I work with other people, I have to divide the wins.”Of course, that's partly true. If you share a business, a project or an opportunity, you may also share the financial outcome.But I realized how limited that perspective was.Because if you only focus on maximizing what you get, you can miss what becomes possible when several people bring their strengths together.If you want to go fast, you can go alone. If you want to create greater impact, you need others.That has become increasingly clear to me.Over the past year, I have deliberately started experimenting with different forms of partnership.I've worked with people who understand marketing much better than I do. I've explored new platforms and advertising. I've started surrounding myself with people who can help me expand the reach of my work instead of trying to figure everything out myself.And I've discovered that this isn't necessarily about maximizing profit margins.It's about asking:What is the most powerful way to create the impact I want to create?Sometimes that means keeping everything in-house.Sometimes it means bringing in someone who can do something ten times better than you, or building something together.Your environment is part of your growthAnother major shift for me has been moving out of my own bubble.For three years, I worked mostly from home. I was productive. I could organize my days exactly as I wanted. I didn't see much need for a coworking space.But productivity isn't the same thing as growth.Working alone also meant I was missing perspective, spontaneous conversations, new ideas and opportunities to co-create.So I started joining more curated communities and environments.I joined a co-creation coworking space where people actively connect, share ideas, create events and find ways to collaborate.I also joined a carefully curated network of founders and business leaders.And what I noticed was this:I didn't just need to be a source of inspiration for others. I needed to be inspired by others, too.As a coach and mentor, I'm used to holding space for people, supporting their growth and helping them see things differently.But I also need people who challenge my thinking.People who have walked paths I haven't walked yet.People who see things I don't see.People who are a few steps ahead of me—and sometimes completely outside my frame of reference.That is where growth happens.Back Into Co-FoundingThe final experiment—and perhaps the biggest one—is that I'm opening myself to co-found a business with a partner again.I've co-founded several ventures in the past, and not all of those experiences were easy. There were difficult conversations, misalignment and complexity.At one point, I thought:“This is not for me anymore. I'm never going back there.”So I closed that door.And now, I'm opening it again.But I'm not entering partnership with the same identity I had before.I'm coming with more maturity, more experience and more awareness of what I need.I've learned that trust doesn't mean abandoning your boundaries.A few reflections for your own businessIf you're building something right now, I invite you to look at where you might be operating from the lone wolf archetype.Ask yourself:* Where am I doing everything myself when someone else could help me grow?* Where am I holding onto control because it makes me feel safe?* Do I actually want to maximize what I keep, or do I want to maximize the impact I can create?* What boundaries would I need in order to collaborate from a place of trust?* Who are the people I currently surround myself with? Are they reinforcing what I already know, or expanding the way I think?The most underlying question behind those questions:Am I building this business primarily for myself, or am I building it for the impact I want to create?Because those two questions can lead to very different choices.We are not meant to do everything aloneOne of the stories of modern entrepreneurship is that the successful founder is self-sufficient.The person who can do everything and doesn't need anyone. “I have AI to build this and that.”But I increasingly believe that this isn't the highest expression of leadership.We are human beings. We are wired for relationship, community and interdependence.And the next level of growth may not come from becoming more independent.It may come from becoming more capable of trusting, receiving, collaborating and creating together.This is something I'm learning myself.I'm still experimenting. I'm still navigating the transition in my business. And I'm still learning what the right partnerships look like.But I know now that closing the door to partnership because of what happened in the past can also mean closing the door to what might become possible in the future.And perhaps that's the next chapter for me: not building alone, but learning how to build with others.A final reflectionTake a moment today and ask yourself:Where might my need for control be limiting my growth?And what could become possible if I allowed myself to trust and create with others?Then take a breath, close your eyes if it feels comfortable, and simply notice what happens in your body when you imagine letting someone else in.That response might tell you more than your mind does.This episode is part of Sophie Vo's A Spark of Awareness podcast, exploring the inner work behind leadership, entrepreneurship, transformation and creating a life and business from a place of greater alignment.Thanks for reading Rise and Play!

There's no such thing as a simple pelvic health patient.Even the patient who walks in with “just a little stress incontinence” brings a history, a body, hormones, sleep, stress, previous injuries, bowel function, activity goals—and a whole lot more.And that's exactly why being a great pelvic health clinician requires so much more than memorizing protocols.We're joined by Michelle Lyons for one of those wide-ranging, thought-provoking conversations we always love having with her.Michelle has been part of PelviCon from the very beginning. She's our only 5-time PelviCon speaker, an incredible educator and one of the most thoughtful voices in our profession.In this episode, we talk about:

More revenue. More patients. More clinicians. More locations.We're constantly told that a "successful" business should always be getting bigger.But what if you don't actually want it to?
Are you consciously creating your reality, or unconsciously miscreating it?In Season 2, Episode 1 of The Awakened Elevated Human, I dive into reality creation and what it means to become a more conscious, deliberate co-creator of your life. We are constantly creating our reality, even when we are not aware of it. Our thoughts, beliefs, emotions, energetic patterns, programming, and unresolved trauma can all influence the reality we experience.I explain why reality creation is about much more than simply trying to manifest the things we want. True conscious manifestation requires becoming aware of the unconscious patterns that may be causing us to miscreate the experiences we don't actually desire. When we understand these patterns, we can begin healing, shifting our energetic operating system, and creating from a more empowered state.Through real examples involving healing, relationships with animals, personal transformation, and business, I share how deep inner work can change the way we experience our reality. Reality creation becomes more powerful when we resolve the patterns, trauma, beliefs, and emotional energetics that keep us stuck in repeating cycles.I talked about:What reality creation really means and why we are creating all the timeHow unconscious trauma, beliefs, emotions, and programming can lead to miscreationWhy mindset shifting alone may not address deeper energetic patternsHow healing and resolving internal blocks can transform your realityBecoming a conscious co-creator and using Source consciousness to live a more empowered lifeIf you've been struggling to manifest the life, business, relationships, or experiences you desire, I invite you to listen and explore what may be happening beneath the surface. Share with me what resonates and what you'd like me to explore in future episodes.

Reading research and actually understanding what it means for the patient in front of you are two VERY different things.And there may be nobody in pelvic health better at bridging that gap than Taryn Hallam.Taryn has essentially made research translation her full-time job—reading the enormous amount of pelvic health research being published and asking:What does this actually mean in the clinic?Because the abstract doesn't always tell the whole story.As Taryn puts it, the abstract is like the trailer for a movie. Sometimes the trailer accurately represents the movie. And sometimes...all the best parts were in the trailer.
On the second day of Rosh Hashanah, the shofar finally sounds. Yesterday's question was: Are you awake? Today's question goes deeper: What are you awake for and what happens when you finally know where you want to go, but you hit a wall?Drawing on a powerful teaching of the Baal Shem Tov, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath tells the story of people invited to visit a king. Again and again they encounter walls, obstacles, distractions, and treasures. Some turn back. Some settle for the rewards along the way. But a few keep going because they remember why they came: “I came for the King.” When they finally reach the innermost chamber and look back, they discover something astonishing: the walls were never what they appeared to be. The King had never been far away.We all have walls: anxiety, grief, shame, resentment, fear, family struggles, illness, disappointment, self-criticism, or the belief that we should be further along by now. The Baal Shem Tov's teaching does not deny the reality of pain. It challenges the conclusion that because life feels difficult, G-d must therefore be distant. Kabbalah teaches leit atar panui minei, there is no place devoid of Him. Even the wall itself exists within the palace. The place we imagine is separating us from G-d may be precisely the place where G-d is meeting us.But the sermon goes one uncomfortable step further: sometimes the wall does not merely block us, it becomes our excuse not to move. Pain is real, but we can surrender our future to it by saying, “This is simply who I am,” “Nothing can change,” or “I cannot move until someone else changes first.” The alternative is not pretending we were never hurt. It is becoming a co-creator with G-d and asking: Given what happened, what do I want to create now?The shofar becomes the perfect expression of that journey: Teki'ah - wholeness. Shevarim - brokenness. Teruah - fragments. And then another Teki'ah - wholeness again. Not because nothing happened, but because beneath everything that broke is a deeper part of the soul that never stopped belonging to the King.Rosh Hashanah therefore asks us not to demolish every wall overnight, but simply to identify one wall and take one step. One apology. One boundary. One conversation. One mitzvah. One honest act of courage. And when the shofar sounds, hear the deeper truth: You were never outside the palace. The King was with you inside the journey all along.Key Points- Awakening is only the beginning. Once we know we want to change, we inevitably encounter resistance, the “wall.”- The wall is not proof that G-d is far away. Difficulty, distraction, doubt, anxiety, grief, and spiritual struggle do not equal Divine absence.- The wall itself is inside the palace. Since nothing exists outside G-d, even concealment exists within His presence.- Pain is real; separation is not. The sermon carefully distinguishes between denying suffering and refusing to interpret suffering as abandonment.- Thoughts can masquerade as reality. “I am broken,” “I'll never change,” “I'm not good enough,” and “I'm too far gone” may feel like facts while actually functioning as walls.- Sometimes the wall becomes an alibi. A painful story can quietly become permission not to move, grow, repair, forgive, or take responsibility.- The opposite of Victim is Co-Creator. We cannot control everything that happens to us, but we remain partners with G-d in deciding what happens next.- You cannot always choose what happens to you, but you can participate in what happens through you.- You do not need to climb twenty walls today. Take one step: one apology, boundary, appointment, conversation, mitzvah, or change in how you show up.- Success can become a wall too. Not only suffering distracts us from the King. Career, money, status, accomplishments, and even religious achievements can become “treasures” that cause us to forget why we began the journey.- A mitzvah is not a trophy; it is a doorway. The question is not merely what we accomplished, but whether it brought us closer.The shofar tells the story of the soul:Teki'ah - whole.Shevarim - broken.Teruah - fragmented.Teki'ah - whole again.- Teshuvah means return. And you can only return somewhere you already belong.- The King was never waiting at the end of the journey. G-d was present inside every step of it.- The deepest Rosh Hashanah question becomes: What did you come for? And beneath all the noise, the neshamah answers: I came for the King.Rabbi Yisroel Bernath's New Book The Forgiveness Experiment is Available now:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/Forgiveness-Experiment-What-Would-Your/dp/1069217638Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FR2QNJL6Audiobook: https://bit.ly/4tPFZhVSupport the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Season 3 of The Creep Tapes is out tomorrow, September 15th on AMC+ and Shudder and you have to check it out because all 6 episodes are epic. Patrick told me how he fell into writing and directing horror movies, the original intent of writing the first Creep movie, and why they made the decision to make it a series instead of continuing to make movies.

What happens when one ridiculous movie idea grows into a genuine cult phenomenon? On this episode of the Messed Up Movies Podcast, we sit down with Costa Dillon, the creator and co-writer of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes!, to discuss the story behind one of the most recognizable cult movies ever made. Costa takes us inside the creation of Killer Tomatoes, the independent filmmaking spirit behind the original movie, and the unexpected life the franchise developed after its release. We talk about its famously absurd premise, its lasting reputation, and what it is like to remain connected to killer tomatoes nearly five decades later. Whether you grew up watching the original film, discovered the sequels or animated series, or have always wondered how a movie called Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! actually got made, this conversation is packed with cult-movie history. Subscribe to Misfit Parade for more interviews, horror discussions, movie drafts, and episodes of the Messed Up Movies Podcast. What is your favorite part of the Killer Tomatoes franchise?

We talk a lot about providing “whole-person care.” But are we actually doing it?And if we leave spirituality completely out of the conversation...can we really call our care whole-person?This is exactly the kind of question we love exploring with Dr. Sinéad Dufour.Sinéad is one of the researchers and educators we respect most because she's constantly willing to examine the evidence, challenge her own assumptions and change her mind when the science takes her somewhere new.So naturally, when she decided to go back to graduate school for counseling and spiritual care, we knew the conversation was going to be fascinating.
You started your business for more freedom.So…why are you working more hours, answering messages on vacation, staying late for the one patient who "can only do 5pm," and feeling guilty anytime you need to change your schedule?

Dr. Rachel Rubin is changing the landscape of women's health—and she's not waiting around for permission.In this fiery conversation, we talk about why sexual medicine has been ignored for so long, the massive education gap around menopause and hormones, and Rachel's work fighting to remove the FDA boxed warning from vaginal estrogen.We also get into why pelvic PTs and OTs need to own our role in recognizing hormonal and vulvar changes, why the future of women's healthcare requires a multidisciplinary “pit crew,” and Rachel's philosophy that no grown-ups are coming to save the day.Plus, we talk disruption, entrepreneurship, taking action, dealing with criticism…and why Rachel believes pelvic rehab providers are becoming leaders in this space.About Dr. Rachel RubinDr. Rachel Rubin is a board-certified urologist and sexual medicine specialist, nationally recognized for her work in women's sexual health, menopause, hormones, and Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM).Learn more from Rachel at Dr. Rachel Rubin's website and follow her on Instagram @drrachelrubin.See Rachel at PelviCon!Rachel is making PelviCon history as our first physician speaker!She'll be delivering her keynote on Disrupting the FDA: A Fight for Vaginal Estrogen Safety AND a four-hour Pre-Con deep dive on Vulvar Exams for Pelvic Therapists.Join us for PelviCon Live Virtual + Recording and get lifetime access to Rachel's keynote and all of the incredible PelviCon content.Get PelviCon Live Virtual + Recording →About Nicole & Jesse CozeanPelvic health is hard.

When you leave a job to start your own practice, you're making a pretty massive trade:You're trading consistency for upside.Gone is the predictable paycheck, the regular schedule, the structure someone else created for you, and the relative certainty of knowing what you're going to make.In exchange? You get upside.And in this first episode of our Making Your Business Work for You series, we're talking about the most obvious kind: money.Because we all know the fantasy math."If I charge $200 and see 40 patients a week…"And suddenly you're mentally spending the fortune you're obviously going to make as a practice owner.Except…that's not how this works.There are plenty of practice owners making less than they could working for someone else. We'll share some real numbers, break down what different caseloads actually mean for your take-home income, and talk about the financial ceiling of the solo model versus the very different challenges (and opportunities) of growing beyond yourself.We also break down the only four ways to make more money in your practice:Get more leadsConvert more of those leads into patientsKeep your patients longerRaise your pricesBut making more isn't the whole story.You can have a thriving practice and still panic over every cancellation, obsess over every eval who doesn't book, and wonder whether the whole thing is about to come crashing down after one slow week.So we're also talking about financial confidence—knowing your numbers, understanding the normal ups and downs of business, and being confident you're on pace to hit your goals.Because ultimately, running a small business is a get-rich-slow scheme.You stack the wins. You make an extra $25,000 this year. You invest it. You get smarter about taxes. You improve the business. You let those gains compound over years and decades.Your practice might be the single greatest wealth-generating machine you ever create.Just don't expect it to happen overnight.PelviCon Live Virtual + RecordingCan't be with us in person for PelviCon?

Summary In this episode, Andy sits down with Johan Roos, professor and executive advisor at Hult International Business School, Executive Director of the Peter Drucker Society Europe, and co-inventor of the LEGO® Serious Play® method. Johan is the author of Human Magic: Leading with Wisdom in an Age of Algorithms, and he has spent decades studying how people think, create, decide, and lead together. Andy and Johan explore the two paths Johan calls erosion and amplification, starting with a question Andy has been wrestling with as he hands more of his manual driving over to Tesla's self-driving. You'll hear what an eroding project manager actually looks like day-to-day, why practical wisdom matters when the analytically optimal answer is not the wisest one, and how AI feeds one kind of curiosity, the laser, while starving another, the radar. Johan also explains the difference between becoming an AI concierge and practicing what he calls professional citizenship, and he shares what parents can do to help their kids hold onto the messy, hands-on curiosity that machines cannot supply. If you're looking for a thoughtful, hopeful way to use AI without surrendering your judgment, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "Almost every good idea I've had was not in front of the screen." "I know what to do, but I've stopped understanding why.".... The eroding project management can no longer explain the why." "So in a sense, they argue that the better the system, the stronger pull down the erosion curve." "So the message is really when the machines are taking over more and more of some of these subtle, very valuable capabilities we have, we have to climb the value creation ladder." "So a complexity is exactly where our wisdom gets exposed." "So every metric said fantastic, but nobody asked why, and is this right?" "If AI can write a document that is important to you, the document was never where the value lived." "But we just have to be careful to not sort of delegate too much of our brain power and sort of erode our jelly bean." "When you lean back and you haven't struggled enough, you may be super smart and, and the best brilliant individual in the world, but, you know, friction is good." "Are you able to argue for your case without holding on to the AI-produced slide?" "Protect the wandering curiosity, unstructured exploration, questions with no immediate payoff, the freedom to follow something nowhere in particular." Chapters 00:00 Introduction 02:35 Start of Interview 02:44 Growing Up Inquisitive and the Power of "Because" 06:04 Self-Driving Cars, GPS, and the Erosion of Our Abilities 10:31 Becoming an Active Supervisor Instead of a Passive Passenger 13:55 What an Eroding Project Manager Looks Like Day to Day 18:52 When the Optimal Answer Is Not the Wisest One 22:03 Intuition, Gut Feel, and When Something Does Not Smell Right 25:54 The Laser and the Radar: Two Kinds of Curiosity 27:52 Creating Independently Before Consulting AI 30:44 What Happens in the AI-Free Time 35:18 Is It Intuition or Is It Ego? 37:48 Turning the Models Loose on His Own Book 40:00 Asking AI to Be Brutally Honest 41:02 AI Concierge Versus Professional Citizenship 45:51 Advice for Parents Raising Kids in the Age of AI 49:26 Staying Human: Theater, Walks, and Getting Your Hands Dirty 50:44 End of Interview 51:15 Andy Comments After the Interview 54:46 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about Johan and his work at humanmagic.one.

How can we help save the lives of our pregnant and post-partum patients? What about doing more than just resolving their reported symptoms?We can't wait for you to hear this conversation with Katherine Sylvester - she has spent her entire career challenging the status quo and pushing for better results for her patients. After experiencing postpartum preeclampsia herself, Katherine began asking how wearable data could help women recognize problems earlier, advocate for themselves and make better decisions during pregnancy and postpartum. That eventually grew into Operation M.I.S.T. and her work helping women use their own data to better understand their bodies. And that's just one part of this conversation!We talk about:
What if the first clinician you hire isn't as good as you?It's one of the biggest fears we hear from successful solopreneurs—and it's exactly what Nicole struggled with when we started growing PelvicSanity.Because hiring your first clinician isn't just adding another person to the schedule.It's changing your entire role.Suddenly, you have to trust someone else with your patients, your reputation, your culture and something you've worked incredibly hard to build.And yes...Nicole struggled with this enough that she eventually went to therapy to work through some of the control issues that came with becoming a leader.

If you've ever felt like you've "tried downtraining" and your patient still isn't getting better... this episode is for you.We're also wrapping up our recent series on internal exams, the gold standard, and access to quality care before shifting back into one of our favorite clinical topics: downtraining.The biggest mistake we see?Thinking of downtraining as a single intervention.In this episode, we introduce the updated framework from our completely re-recorded Downtraining Masterclass, including the three different "levers" of downtraining and how they help you identify why someone's pelvic floor is overactive—not just that it is.In this episode we discuss:✅ A quick recap of our recent series on internal exams & the gold standard✅ Why "I've tried downtraining" usually isn't true✅ The 3 Downtraining Levers: Pelvic Floor Direct Pelvic Floor Indirect Nervous System ✅ How to choose the right intervention for the right patient✅ When to stay the course... and when it's time to pivotIf you treat patients with pelvic pain, overactivity, urinary urgency, constipation, or other pelvic floor dysfunction, this framework will immediately change how you think about treatment.

In this conversation, we talk about how far our profession has come—from a time when there were only a handful of pelvic health courses available to today, where thousands of clinicians are entering the field every year.We also dive into:✅ How Amy built Beyond Basics into one of the country's premier pelvic health practices✅ Why collaboration—not competition—is the future of pelvic health✅ What's changing in our understanding of endometriosis✅ Why every patient deserves a multidisciplinary team✅ The importance of mentorship and lifelong learningAmy will also be joining us at PelviCon 2026 to present two incredible sessions:
