Collective excellence starts when hotel teams stop operating in separate lanes and start moving in the same direction. Glenn Haussman talks with Ben Campbell, President and CEO of Hospitality America, from **PEACHCON, the company's annual conference**, where team members come together to connect, learn and align around what comes next. Ben's focus is simple: get better today than yesterday and better tomorrow than today. That means stronger talent, stronger relationships and more value for team members, owners and guests. See what changes when a hotel company stops thinking one property at a time and starts building one organization.

Understanding collective grief and reconnecting to a sense of purpose explores the increasingly pervasive feelings of aimlessness and low motivation and what you can do about it. We are living through a time of ongoing crisis in a society that fails to recognize and allow room for the wide-ranging impact of grief when it's personal, let alone when it's collective. When you're not directly impacted by the crises (yet), it's understandable to be confused at the energetic drain you're experiencing. This episode unpacks how collective grief quietly shapes your brain and pulls at your energy, especially when we layer on stories of personal failing or laziness. Listen if you want language, context, and gentle tools to help you feel more understood and more connected to a sense of purposefulness in everyday life. Some of what I talk about in this episode includes:The “lazy” story we tell ourselves that keeps us stuck and ashamedHow grief and chronic stress impact the body, brain, and motivationSupportive ways to engage with stress, vicarious trauma, and collective griefPurposeful living and meaning-making as ways to feel reconnected and less aloneHave thoughts or questions about this episode?

Host: Lalo Solorzano & Cindy Allen Guest(s): Will Fediw, Virginia Maritime Association Published: September 2, 2026 Length: Approx. 29 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center Summary Trade associations can be much more than networking groups—they can become an extension of your team, a source of industry intelligence, and a powerful collective voice when policy decisions affect your business. In this episode of Simply Trade, Lalo Solorzano and Cindy Allen sit down with Will Fediw of the Virginia Maritime Association (VMA) to explore the real business value of getting involved in an industry association. Will shares examples of how companies of all sizes have used association membership to uncover funding and incentive opportunities, make valuable business connections, strengthen advocacy efforts, and gain access to expertise they may not have internally. The conversation also highlights the close relationship between international trade and the maritime industry. From tariffs and regulatory changes to ports, trucking, rail, warehousing, importers, and exporters, the entire supply chain is interconnected. Finally, the group previews VMA26: International Trade Symposium, taking place October 13–15, 2026, in Norfolk, Virginia, where maritime, logistics, supply chain, and trade professionals will come together for education, strategic conversations, and networking. Simply Trade listeners can use promo code VMA26Trade for $100 off registration. Main Topic / Discussion This episode explores why active participation in trade and industry associations can create measurable value for businesses. Will explains how the Virginia Maritime Association connects companies across the maritime supply chain—from ocean carriers and terminals to trucking, rail, warehousing, manufacturers, importers, exporters, and professional service providers. The conversation focuses on three major benefits of association involvement: access to information and resources, business-to-business connections, and collective advocacy. Will also explains why advocacy is especially valuable for small and midsize companies that may not have dedicated government affairs teams or in-house resources. At the same time, even major corporations can benefit from having an established association represent broader industry interests before policymakers. Lalo, Cindy, and Will also discuss the importance of educating elected officials about how trade and maritime policy affects businesses, jobs, cargo movement, and communities throughout the supply chain. The episode concludes with a preview of VMA26: International Trade Symposium, October 13–15, 2026, in Norfolk, Virginia. Simply Trade Listener Offer: Use promo code VMA26Trade for $100 off registration. Key Takeaways • Trade associations can provide expertise, connections, education, and resources that companies may not have available internally. • Association membership can create real business opportunities by connecting members with potential customers, partners, programs, grants, and industry resources. • Collective advocacy gives businesses—especially smaller companies—a stronger voice with legislators and government agencies without requiring their own full-time government affairs operation. • Maritime transportation and international trade are inseparable. Changes involving tariffs, regulation, cargo flows, ports, carriers, and supply chains ultimately affect businesses across the entire trade ecosystem. • Effective advocacy requires more than access to policymakers. Industry professionals can serve as subject matter experts who help elected officials understand the real-world consequences of proposed policies. • VMA26 brings maritime, shipping, logistics, supply chain, government, and trade professionals together for education, peer-to-peer discussion, and networking.

The way leaders communicate can have a big impact on how we see ourselves. Vanessa Beasley is an expert on presidential rhetoric—and the president of Trinity University in San Antonio. In this episode, Adam and Vanessa take a closer look at how rhetoric used by past US presidents has shaped the identity of the American people, and explore some common rhetorical mistakes that leaders make when trying to persuade their audience.

Radical acceptance for homeschool moms starts with a hard question: what if the hardest part of your homeschool season isn’t actually the hard thing you’re facing? What if part of what’s exhausting you is the energy you’re spending fighting against the fact that it’s happening at all? Your child is struggling with something. Maybe you’re afraid you’ve made the wrong call. There’s uncertainty when the people closest to you don’t agree. Your teenager is launching into the world, and you’re not quite ready for how that feels. A quiet worry sits underneath it all: am I doing enough? Behind that struggle is usually a quiet belief: if I could just fix this, then I could finally breathe. If my child would just catch up to grade level. If only my homeschool would feel more successful. Maybe my husband or mom would finally understand. I wish I knew for sure the choices I’m making today would benefit my kids. If just one person would tell me I’m doing okay. Then maybe I could relax. Why We Can’t Just Relax But what if peace isn’t something that shows up after everything gets resolved? What if peace begins the moment we stop abandoning ourselves in the middle of what’s still unresolved? If you love deep, meaningful conversations like this, you won’t want to miss our Book Club Newsletter!

The Trance of ‘Not Enough’ (And Why Radical Acceptance for Homeschool Moms Matters) Tara Brach calls it “the trance of unworthiness” — the quiet, background belief that we’re not enough. Not patient enough, not organized enough, not spiritual enough, not calm enough. It’s a trance because we rarely notice we’re inside it. We just keep moving, comparing, researching, and looking for reassurance. Sound familiar? You make a homeschool decision — and then immediately Google whether it was the right one. You choose not to push your child through something, and wonder if you’re being too permissive. Or you do push, and worry you’ve damaged the relationship. There’s no decision that doesn’t seem to land you on trial in your own head. Underneath it all is one question: Can I trust myself without someone else confirming I’m right? If that trance feels familiar, it’s often rooted somewhere deeper — we talk more about that in Healing the Mother Wound for Homeschool Moms. What Radical Acceptance for Homeschool Moms Actually Means Radical acceptance doesn’t mean liking what’s happening, giving up, or becoming passive about harmful circumstances. It starts much simpler than that. It says: this is what’s happening right now. My child is struggling. I am overwhelmed. I don’t know what to do. The radical part isn’t the situation — it’s what we don’t add on top of it. Instead of layering judgment (“I should be handling this better,” “What’s wrong with me?”), we pause and simply acknowledge reality. There’s the pain of what’s happening. And then there’s the extra suffering we create by fighting the fact that it’s happening — and homeschool moms are remarkably good at generating that second layer. Two Wings: Clear Seeing and Compassion Tara Brach describes radical acceptance as needing two wings to fly: clear seeing and compassion. Clear seeing without compassion turns into self-criticism (“I always overcommit, I’m terrible at boundaries, why can’t I get it together?”). Compassion without clarity turns into avoidance (“Everything’s fine!” — when maybe something really does need to change). Together, they shift the questions we ask ourselves: Instead of What’s wrong with me? → What is happening here? Instead of Why can’t I handle this? → What is this experience asking me to notice? And instead of I need to fix myself. → What do I need right now? The Productivity Trance So many of us learned, early and often, that our worth is tied to output. Homeschooling can quietly become another productivity machine: Did we finish the workbook? How many pages? Are we ahead or behind? But what if the most important thing that happened today can’t be measured? What if presence was enough? That’s easier to believe on a podcast than on a Thursday afternoon when the checklist is half-done. Which is exactly why it’s worth asking: Where did I learn that today only counts if I produced enough? Is it true? And the harder question — what would happen if I stopped trying to earn my worth through productivity? If overwhelm is where you’re living most days right now, this companion post can help: How to Handle Homeschool Overwhelm. A Personal Season: Launching My Youngest This one is personal right now. After years of building life around the rhythms of children — lessons, meals, car rides, celebrations — the season is changing, and there’s a choice in how to meet it: fight reality, or let both things be true at once. This is beautiful. And this hurts. Pride in the young man he’s becoming, and grief for the little boy who no longer needs help spelling words (and now wins at Bananagrams instead). Homeschooling can become such a central part of a mother’s identity — organizer, facilitator, researcher, driver, worrier, celebrator — that when the season shifts, something in us shifts too. That identity shift is its own kind of grief worth naming — I explore it more in my identity as a home educator. Radical acceptance doesn’t say don’t grieve. It just stops making the grief itself a problem. A RAIN Practice for Radical Acceptance for Homeschool Moms When you’re in the thick of a hard homeschool moment, Tara Brach’s RAIN practice offers a simple way back to yourself: R — Recognize What is actually happening right now? Not what might happen — what’s here. A — Allow Can this moment be here, just for now? Not forever — just without the fight. I — Investigate Get curious. Is this about today, or is something older being activated? Is it uncertainty, grief, exhaustion, or an unvoiced need? N — Nurture What do I actually need right now? A break. Help. Food. A reminder that one hard day doesn’t define an entire education. Permission to be human in the middle of the unfinished, uncertain, imperfect reality. https://youtu.be/ABvnGnqM9-c?si=dybv0JgbRhPjIqUP The Real Radical Act Can you stop requiring external evidence before you let yourself believe you’re enough? Are you able to trust yourself even when not everyone agrees? What would it take to voice a need before you know how it’ll be received? (Voicing a need is often the first boundary — here’s how to start: Practical (& useful) steps to boundaries in your homeschool.) Could you have a hard homeschool day without turning it into a verdict on your motherhood? Is it possible to look at your child — and at yourself — with clear eyes and compassion, instead of through someone else’s checklist? Maybe what we’re really resisting isn’t the messy day or the uncertain season. Maybe it’s the possibility that we could stop striving long enough to simply be — not the ideal, fully-cooperating, everything-folded-correctly version of homeschool life, but this one. The real one. That might be the most radical thing we can do. Join the Conversation Joining the Homeschool Mama Book Club can be its own small act of radical acceptance for homeschool moms — an acknowledgment that you need space, support, honest conversation, and care too. Inside the Collective, you’ll meet women who understand the uncertainty, the relationship challenges, the identity shifts, and the pressure that can come with homeschool motherhood. On Fridays, we gather to read good books, explore meaningful ideas, and talk through shared challenges together. Bring us to your favorite café or close the bedroom door and join from home — either way, it’s an hour reserved for you. Find the link in the show notes to come join us. Join the Book Club in the Confident Homeschool Mom Collective Reflection Questions Where in your homeschool life do you notice the “trance of unworthiness” showing up? What’s one situation right now where you could practice clear seeing and compassion, rather than picking just one? Try RAIN this week: the next time you spiral, walk through Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Nurture — even just once. Thank you for spending this summer in the Homeschool Mama Book Club. I hope these books and conversations have given you permission to pause, reflect, and remember that the most important work you may ever do for your homeschool isn’t found in a book — it’s found inside you. — Teresa Wiedrick, Confident Homeschool Mom Podcast Latest episodes How to Practice Radical Acceptance for a Better Homeschool Mom Life September 1, 2026 15 Fun Activities for First Day of Homeschool Party August 31, 2026 How to Deal with Homeschool Mama Guilt (In No Easy Steps) August 29, 2026 Feeling Lost in Homeschooling?

Survival Instinct (Star Trek: Voyager, S6 E2) was recommended by Tonks (they/them) , who said: I had hoped to break the streak of serious Voyager episodes by revisiting some of my old favourites, but this episode called to me.I resonate strongly with Seven in this episode. She as an individual chose actions motivated by fear that impacted the lives of other people and hurt them deeply.What little she can do to correct it now, and get some closure on her repressed memories is often something I wish I could have, but this episode emphasises that some wounds cannot be healed no matter what you do.I do not remember this episode hitting as hard as it does now on prior viewings, but possibly due to a recent diagnosis of ADHD I'm in a more reflective mindset.This is overall a great exploration of Seven's relationships with her past and her found family on Voyager.Survival Instinct first aired on September 29, 1999, written by Ronald D. Moore, and directed by Terry WindellThree Borg from Seven's past appear, and ask to be completely separated from the Collective.The Joy of Trek is hosted by Khaki & Kay, with editing & production by Chief Engineer Greg and music by Fox Amoore (Bandcamp | Bluesky)Send us your recommendations, or support us on Patreon.Find us at joyoftrek.com · Twitter · Facebook

During Black August 2026, the Asantehene, Otumfo Osei Tutu II, and Otumfo-Yere Julia Osei Tutu of the Asante People are visiting the United States. Their trip features a Royal Lecture at Howard University and an Akwasidae Festival at Bowie State University, bracketed by a major African business summit. This historic visit highlights a foundational truth: Global African solidarity and belonging must anchor self-determination to drive local, regional, and global advancement. This journey happens during a time of deep global political friction. As the old Age of European Expansion rapidly deteriorates, powerful nations scramble to renegotiate global arrangements. Meanwhile, political figures in the U.S. fetishize authoritarian leadership and try to destabilize existing political and economic orders. Domestic US communities also struggle to claim collective authority and protect explicit individual rights within a destabilizing US legal system. In grappling with relationships between Governance formations and the Social Structures which hold them together, the Asante delegation raises questions of Governance, where authority is informed by the Cultural Meaning-Making that recognizes relationships between memory and vision, the protective custodianship of Ancestral continuity represented by the Golden Stool, and the living assent of the people in renewed and new Governance formations. As corporate lawfare and a compromised SCOTUS threaten US domestic stability, and neoliberal frameworks continue to buffet the modern university, this week we raise questions of structural autonomy, from the protocols of the Asante to the "jailbreaking" of the Black University, and ask several questions: What does it mean to truly govern with the people's assent? How do we reclaim authority when structures built to rule us teeter? What happens when people withdraw their authority? How do we strengthen our global ties for mutual benefit?Are you a member of Knarrative? If not, we invite you to join our community today by signing up at: https://www.knarrative.com.

In 1973's Soylent Green, Charlton Heston discovers the miracle food is made of people. In 2026, we're being sold something similar. There is nothing artificial about artificial intelligence. The name was a branding exercise, invented at Dartmouth in 1956 by a man who didn't want to argue with Norbert Wiener about cybernetics. Strip out the god and what's left is the accumulated cognitive labour of humanity, compressed and sold back to us for twenty dollars a month. Not artificial. Collective. Which changes the question from "will the machine wake up" to "who enclosed the commons this time?" On Dartmouth, the Enclosure Acts, Marx's Fragment on Machines, and Vince Gilligan's Pluribus.

In today's episode on Why September 1st Is New Year's Day, Erin Bradley shares: Why she's been treating September 1st as New Year's Day since 2014, and how the Labor Day to Memorial Day marketing rhythm ends the January panic for good The story of her friend, a single mom with a 2-year-old and a 2-week-old living in her mom's basement, who closed 8 deals in 90 days and then committed to never working summers ("I sleep until 10, and then we go to the pool") Why "whatever comes after because is fear," and how the life you want is on the other side of one aligned decision The first September experiment: from 2 closings in August to 12 closings in December 2014, 8 more in January, and a business that doubled from $18M to $38M in volume in 2015 The myth that got debunked: "there's no business in the winter" The lighthouse principle: most of your business shows up out of the blue, so the only thing we script is how we manage and share our energy ("the ships come to port when the lights are on, and we turn the lights on from within") The 25% rule: 25% of people will love you no matter what, 25% never will, and 3 out of 4 people are not your right fit, so if it doesn't feel like a hell yes, it's a pass The garden analogy: uprooting what drains you and planting the hell-yes relationships Why the business is inconsistent because we are inconsistent, and how better systems, boundaries, and support create consistency Enough Already, Erin's 8-day autumn reset (September 21-30): nervous system regulation, who is your who, scheduling and boundaries, systems and automations, and enlisting help without fear Getting in the room in person: the WMN Soulful Summit in Scottsdale, October 21-24 Why "safe means same," the breakup tipping point, and how the decision to bet on yourself changes the timeline of your life About Erin Bradley Erin Bradley is a speaker and business coach, bestselling author, and host of the real estate podcast Pursuing Freedom.

The bookkeeper hiring model is changing. AI, rising employment costs and the disappearance of traditional entry-level work are making it harder for a bookkeeper practice to hire and train the next generation. In this episode, I explore why work experience matters, where qualifications fall short, and how every bookkeeper can rethink training in a world where new hires are expected to add value faster. Whether you're hiring, training or building your career as a bookkeeper, this is a problem the profession needs to solve. The future of the bookkeeper workforce starts with giving people the experience they need to succeed.

There's a moment I hear from women all the time: “I told myself I wasn't going to drink tonight… and then I did.” Maybe you've had that conversation with yourself more times than you'd like to admit. You wake up determined. You make a promise. You tell yourself, Tonight will be different. And then 5:00 rolls around. You're tired. Overwhelmed. Bored. Stressed. Lonely. Frustrated. And suddenly that drink sounds really good. Then comes the guilt. Why did I do that again? What is wrong with me? Why can't I just control this? But what if the problem isn't that you need more willpower? What if there's actually something underneath the drinking that you haven't learned how to address yet? That's what I'm diving into on this week's episode of the Set Free Sisterhood Podcast: Why Do I Keep Drinking Even Though I Said I Wouldn't? 5 Hidden Reasons You Drink I'm breaking down the five hidden reasons that can keep you reaching for alcohol even when you genuinely want to stop. And this episode is just the beginning. Over the next six weeks, I'm going deeper into each of these reasons because I want you to start seeing your drinking differently. Not through shame. Not through “I should be better than this.” But through curiosity, understanding, and real change. And if you're listening and thinking, “Michelle, I know I need more support with this,” I have something coming. The Set Free Sisterhood Collective is a 12-week coaching experience for Christian women who are ready to stop over-drinking, understand what's really driving it, and create a life they don't need to escape from. We start September 30th, 2026, and enrollment is coming soon. If you want to be the first to know when enrollment opens, simply reply to this email with COLLECTIVE and I'll add you to the list. You don't have to keep having the same conversation with yourself. Let's get underneath it. Michelle

Boutique Professional Services | Pro Serv Podcast Speed has never been cheaper. AI can draft the memo, the deck, the model — in minutes. But fast and useful are not the same thing, and a lot of boutique founders are learning that the hard way. Clients aren't asking for faster anymore. They're asking for something they can hold — a framework they can use, a system they can run, a strategy they can act on. Leo Falkenstein, a Collective 54 member and returning guest, has built his firm around that distinction. He returns to the show to talk about what it actually takes to deliver work that outlasts the engagement. In this episode: • Why speed is now the baseline — and why winning on speed alone is a race to the bottom • What "building something the client can hold" actually means in delivery terms • How AI changes the work without changing the standard clients are holding you to • The difference between work that gets approved and work that gets used • Why slower, more deliberate delivery often produces faster client results • What boutique founders should protect when pressure to move faster mounts If you run a boutique professional services firm and want to make more money, make scaling easier, and make an exit achievable, join Collective 54 at collective54.com.

“Climate activists are sometimes depicted as dangerous radicals. But the truly dangerous radicals are the countries that are increasing the production of fossil fuels. Investing in new fossil fuel infrastructure is moral and economic madness.”  Antonio Guterres, UN General SecretaryWe know that the current system is not fit for purpose. We know that we're hurtling to the edge of the 6th mass extinction, blowing apart all of the predictions about the speed and scale of ecosystem breakdown.  And still we listen to politicians argue about whether GDP has gone up by 0.1% and if so, who is to claim the credit?  They plan for war without understanding that there are no armies, no nations, no people - or any complex life - on a dead planet. What good are science and rational persuasion if no one is paying attention? The climate crisis deepens with terrifying predictability. Meanwhile, the courageous young campaigners who seek to wake us up to the truth of this, through peaceful direct action, are silenced and stuck in prison.Daniel Knorr is one of those young people.  He was 22 years old at the time the book was published, and had previously studied biochemistry at Oxford with a view to engineering plants to be more resilient to extreme weather conditions.  As you'll hear, he realised this was no longer where he needed to be, and joined Just Stop Oil, whose ethos and grounding question is: what does it make to be a good person in this time of collapse - or perhaps transition?  I'll let him tell you his story, but—like the stories of the other 25 young people in the book—it's humbling and inspiring in equal measure. Jonathon Porritt is well known to anyone in the Green or eco-campaigning community in the UK.  He was formerly Co-Chair of the Green Party (1980-83) and Director of Friends of the Earth (1984-90). He was a Board Member of The Southwest Regional Development Agency between 1999 and 2008. He stood down as Chair of the UK Sustainable Development Commission in 2009, after nine years providing high-level advice to Government Ministers, and served a ten-year term as Chancellor of Keele University (2012-2022). He was awarded a CBE in January 2000 for services to environmental protection.Together, we discuss Love, Anger and Betrayal, which brings Jonathan's experience as a long time campaigner into juxtaposition with the experiences of young people one third his age who are doing their best to make the world a better place. Theirs is a generation systematically betrayed by politicians. And by all of us who allow this to continue, on our watch, year after year.  What comes across in this book, though, is that while Jonathan feels the kind of white hot rage that consumes many of us, Daniel and those around him are focusing on embodying love for each other and the planet. ‘We have a choice. Collective action or collective suicide. It is in our hands.'-António GuterresLet's explore what we can do, shall we? LinksLove, Anger and Betrayal websiteJonathan's website Jonathan's short film about the bookBetter Coalition—About Accidental Gods—We offer three strands all rooted in the same soil, drawing from the same river: Accidental Gods, Dreaming Awake and the Thrutopia Writing Masterclass Our next Open Gathering offered as part of our Accidental Gods Programme is 'BECOMING A GOOD ANCESTOR' which will run on Sunday 13th September 2026 from 16:00 - 20:00 GMT - details are here.

Most leaders treat fear as the thing blocking them. Amy Elizabeth Fox, CEO of Mobius Executive Leadership and Nicholas Janni, both co-authors of Leading in Chaos, argue the opposite: you block fear, and that blocking is quietly costing you presence, judgment, and your team's best thinking.Along with host Ashish Kothari, you'll discover why emotional intelligence in leadership starts in the body, the practices that ground you when everything is unpredictable, and why the times are urgent enough that we must slow down. For leaders and executives who are done white-knuckling through chaos and ready to lead from somewhere deeper.What You Will Learn:1. Fear isn't the block. You are. "Fear doesn't block me. The problem is I block fear." Let the wave move through you before the hard conversation. What's on the other side is presence, not paralysis.2. Get in your body before you decide. Soften the out-breath. Feel your feet, feel your chair. Thirty seconds changes your brainwave state, and you can do it mid-meeting. You can't steady a room you haven't steadied yourself in.3. Stop performing certainty. The picture is too big for one mind. Sit with your team in "we don't know," listen until other views actually land, and watch the periphery for early signals instead of rushing to fix.4. Slow down because the times are urgent. When you're moving fast in ten directions, you're busy but not effective. Block out time that's unplugged and unscheduled. One well-aimed move beats a dozen rushed ones.5. Don't shrink, don't inflate. Humility isn't making yourself small. It's owning what you're actually good at while letting go of the need to control how things turn out. Try saying: "I don't know, but together we can figure it out."Episode Chapters: 02:58 Healing inherited trauma is part of leadership.07:27 - Sense-making must go beyond intellect.12:19 - Practical ways to become more grounded.18:08 - Opening the heart strengthens teams.21:23 - Emotions are meant to be felt, not suppressed.31:51 - Spaciousness is a leadership discipline.39:01 - Humility means occupying the right space.43:29 - Intuition and “field intelligence” emerge through presence.49:17 - Collective healing needs both justice and inner development.Resources:Connect with the GuestLinkedIn: Amy Elizabeth FoxLinkedIn: Nicholas JanniRecommended Reading: Leading in ChaosConnect with the HostLinkedIn: Ashish KothariWebsite: Happiness SquadBook: Hardwired For HappinessYouTube: Happiness Squad ChannelTEDx: How to make flourishing your competitive edgeIf this conversation sparked something for you, please subscribe and leave a review, it takes 30 seconds and helps more people discover the show.

In this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna sits down with Morgan Grace, founder of Alchemy Collective, to explore the nonlinear journey that led her from music and multiple college majors to a career in trauma therapy. Morgan shares how her own healing journey ultimately reshaped her direction and inspired the work she does today. She also opens up about building Alchemy Collective and how her personal experiences have shaped the way she supports individuals, couples, and families navigating complex trauma and mental health challenges.Together, Joanna and Morgan discuss the pressure to have life figured out early, why young adulthood is meant to be a time of trial and error, and the importance of giving ourselves—and the young adults in our lives—the flexibility to change course while figuring out who we are. Morgan offers a refreshing reminder that changing your mind doesn't mean you're falling behind; it can simply be part of honing the compass toward what's right for you.Morgan's Resources: Alchemy Collective WebsiteContact Alchemy CollectiveAlchemy Collective on InstagramAlchemy Collective on FacebookAlchemy Collective on LinkedInMorgan Grace on InstagramMorgan Grace on LinkedInEmail: morgan@alchemycollectiveaustin.comConnect with Joanna Lilley  Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail: joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #MorganGrace #AlchemyCollectiveAustin #TraumaTherapy #TraumaTherapist #ComplexTrauma #TraumaHealing #TraumaRecovery #AlchemyCollective #MendTheMender

Rav Hirsch on The Danger of a Life Half Asleep & The Gift of Living Awake ( Elul Collective Writings II)   Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch

Collective Messages -The spiritual realm has received your call and has a message with a coin for the call.

Todays messages are collectiveAll signs are welcomeOnly take what resonates leave the rest behind-Collective what you need to know----Someone wants to drag you back because of your growth

Rest, By Force or By Choice: Burnout, Self-Care, and Sustainable Practice for Therapists - An Interview with Cecily Moore, PhD Dr. Cecily Moore on burnout, rest as a clinical intervention, and unlearning the Strong Black Woman Narrative. Curt and Katie talk with Dr. Cecily Moore, a licensed therapist, counselor educator, and clinical supervisor, about why the expectation of endless strength and infinite patience is an unsustainable ask for therapists and other helping professionals. As clinicians carry collective grief and moral exhaustion alongside their clients, Dr. Moore reframes what burnout is actually asking of us. At the center of the conversation is a simple, uncomfortable idea: your body is designed to protect you, so you will stop either by force or by choice. Dr. Moore makes the case for rest as a clinical intervention rather than a reward, unpacks how self-care has been co-opted into something you buy instead of something that restores you, and explains why advocacy that runs on depletion is a ticking time bomb. Real self-care, she argues, is honest about limits, boundaries, and capacity. From there the discussion turns practical. Dr. Moore shares how deeper values work (asking where a value came from and how it was modeled) opens the door to change, how her "BS Job" checklist gives clinicians a concrete mirror for what is draining them, and why systems will not shift until the people inside them do. She also connects this to her research on unlearning the Strong Black Woman Narrative and the survival-based beliefs about strength, productivity, and worth that keep so many helpers over-functioning. This is a grounded, hopeful conversation for any therapist trying to build a sustainable career without abandoning the work they care about. In this episode, we discuss: - Why endless strength and infinite patience are an unsustainable ask for helping professionals - How to tell rest as a clinical intervention apart from self-care that has been co-opted - Why your body will make you stop, by force or by choice - How to size your advocacy to your actual capacity so it does not deplete you - What deeper values work looks like, and why it drives real change - Why unlearning survival-based beliefs about strength and worth makes practice more sustainable Timestamps: - 01:20 - Who Dr. Moore is and what she puts into the world - 02:49 - What therapists get wrong about endless strength and infinite patience - 04:17 - Collective trauma and watching the world change in real time - 06:37 - Moral injury, privilege, and truth-telling across lived experience - 10:29 - How self-care got co-opted, and why advocacy runs on your well-being - 13:07 - Why rest feels so scary - 15:00 - Reframing self-care as self-maintenance - 18:58 - Over-functioning students and learning to be human - 22:49 - Insight versus implementation, and the systemic barriers - 24:15 - Why systems can't shift until the people do - 28:13 - Sustainable choices, by force or by choice - 29:16 - Values work and the "BS Job" checklist - 31:24 - The Strong Black Woman Narrative and questioning conditioning - 35:28 - Where to find Dr. Moore Guest Bio: Dr. Cecily Moore is a licensed therapist, counselor educator, researcher, and clinical supervisor with a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision. She is the founder of Dr. Cecily Moore & Associates and the creator of the Reappropriate, Redefine, Recover framework, which helps Black women unlearn the Strong Black Woman Narrative and the survival-based beliefs around strength, productivity, and worth that fuel burnout. Her work blends trauma-informed care, nervous system regulation, and culturally responsive practice, and reframes rest as a clinical intervention, not a reward. Learn more at drcecilymoore.com.

What if becoming more successful isn't about doing more, but about finally deciding what you're ready to stop doing?   After 20 years of entrepreneurship, I've learned that some of my biggest shifts have come from letting go of the habits, beliefs, and rules I once thought were essential for success.   In this episode, I'm sharing 10 lessons I've learned about self-leadership, managing your mind, protecting your energy, overcoming perfectionism, trusting yourself, and identifying which goals are actually worth pursuing.   I'll help you look at the rules you've been following and decide whether they're truly serving the woman and entrepreneur you're becoming.  

Host Erin Ayala sits down with writer, speaker, and educator Chrissy King to unpack “body liberation” and how racism, diet culture, and the relentless “maxing” mindset intersect.Chrissy shares personal stories from her journey—writing The Body Liberation Project, navigating publishing, and redefining success on her own terms.Listeners will walk away with a fresh framework for reclaiming their bodies, boosting joy, and building collective freedom in their personal and professional lives.Key TakeawaysBody liberation vs. body positivity: Liberation means challenging systemic racism and diet culture, not just “loving every inch.”Spot the “maxing” trap: Constantly optimizing (protein, fitness, productivity) drains bandwidth and hampers creativity; learn to set intentional, sustainable limits.Collective liberation: Use your privilege to call out fat‑phobic, racist, or exclusionary language in everyday conversations and professional settings.Practical habit shifts: 1. Identify one standard you're chasing that isn't yours and pause it this week. 2. Replace doom‑scrolling with a tactile activity (e.g., crochet, chess) to reset mental bandwidth. 3. Share resources (books, articles) that center marginalized voices instead of speaking for them.Publishing insights: A slower, deliberate book proposal can yield a far better deal than an immediate offer.Chrissy's Substack, The Liberation Collective – https://chrissyking.com/substack (or similar)Instagram & TikTok: @iamchrissyking – https://instagram.com/iamchrissykingIf you found this conversation valuable, hit Subscribe so you never miss an episode, leave a review on your favorite platform, and share the episode with fellow entrepreneurs who are ready to break free from limiting body narratives.

In today's episode on What Being Constantly Reachable Is Costing You, Erin Bradley shares: The Collective poll that started it all: "On a scale of 1 to 10, how tethered to your phone do you feel?" The lowest answer in the room was an 8 Where the checking habit really came from: the day you went 100% commission, adopted uncertainty, and started making yourself available out of anxiety Why people are fed up with the performance of "I'm fine," and why 24-7 availability is not "just the way it is" but scarcity passed down through the generations The client who admitted he hasn't taken a single untethered vacation in 25 years, and the "fingers crossed" joke that exposed how absurd that tolerance is The 4 discovery questions of this episode: How tethered are you, 1 to 10? What are you actually checking for, intentional or autopilot? What are you afraid would go wrong if you stopped? And who told you it was necessary? What being constantly reachable is costing the Collective members in their own words: energy, peace, and sanity The line to write down and keep: "Just because I can, doesn't mean I should" Why your fear is often a liar, "the most untrustworthy part of being human," and how your own track record of acting in spite of fear proves it Whether consumers ever actually demanded 9pm replies, or whether we trained them by always answering Erin's 2013 near-quit, the 2014 first hire that doubled the business, and the coach who said, "You need to do a lot less in order to do a lot more" The art of subtraction: the question isn't how to optimize more, it's what can I subtract? Why September 1st has been Erin's New Year's Day since 2015, and how to use the harvest season to reset, reboot, and launch into Q4 with a pipeline Enough Already: Erin's new 8-day reset, September 21-30, doors open September 10, waitlist now open at https://pursuingfreedom.com/enough About Erin Bradley Erin Bradley is a speaker and business coach, bestselling author, and host of the real estate podcast Pursuing Freedom.

Your highest-impact employee may not have the biggest title, loudest voice, or most visible role. So why do traditional performance systems keep overlooking them? Nikki sits down with Jacob Chase, founder and CEO of The INFIN, to explore a new way to measure human contribution. Jacob explains how decentralized feedback, collective intelligence, and real-time performance data can reveal who is truly creating value across an organization. They unpack the limitations of traditional reviews, the growing impact of AI on employee performance, and why real meritocracy begins when people are rewarded for the value they create. This conversation challenges people-first leaders to move beyond rigid scorecards, recognize invisible contributions, and build workplaces where serving others drives individual and organizational success.   Additional Resources: Connect with Jacob on LinkedIn Reach out for a free pilot implementation at https://www.theinfin.com/ Watch Gut + Science (and more) on YouTube!
