What happens when a nurse finishing up her PhD in evidence-based practice becomes a parent and realizes her own birth care was anything but evidence-based? In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker take us back to the very beginning and shares how her first birth experience set her on a mission to change maternity care. She reflects on her two contrasting birth stories: one marked by unnecessary interventions and separation from her newborn, the other defined by empowerment, autonomy, and midwifery care. Opening up about how these experiences shaped her purpose, Rebecca shares how these experiences led her to launch Evidence Based Birth in 2012. Since then, the platform has grown from a simple blog into a platform for sharing evidence based info that is trusted by families and professionals around the world.

I can't quite believe it, but here we are — the 800th episode of the Tough Girl Podcast! In this special solo episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes for a personal catch-up and reflection on everything that's happened so far in 2025 — from January through to August. I talk about what life has looked like lately (yes, still living at home with my parents!), working part-time at AIM Health, the adventures I've been on, the challenges I've faced, and the exciting things coming up next. This episode is a bit of everything: gear chat (flat-lay photos and a new Atom Pack!), health updates (peri-menopause, gut health, strength training, and more), financial planning (Patreon, pensions, broken laptops!), plus reflections on my time walking the English Camino, Snowdonia Slate Trail, and tackling the GR20 in Corsica — which was honestly tougher than the Marathon des Sables. I'm also talking about my motivations for taking on the GR10, what I've learned in 10 years of podcasting, and why the mission — to increase the amount of female role models in the media especially in relation to adventure and physical challenges— is stronger than ever. Thank you for being here with me on this journey. Whether you've listened from the start or are just finding the show now, I'm so incredibly grateful. This is a celebration of us — of consistency, resilience, growth, and dreaming big.

From breathwork to sock pulls to custom reset words, this routine is personal and practiced—so they can use it when it counts.[00:12:42] From the Court to the Classroom.

Hey friend—this isn't a typical episode. Today, I'm sharing a personal and powerful update: I've decided to pause the podcast.This decision didn't come from burnout or fear. It came from deep alignment, a quiet meditation moment, and one very clear whisper: “Pause the podcast.”If you've been part of this journey, you know that Unleashing You has always been about honoring your truth, trusting the timing, and creating a life that feels like your own. So this pause? It's part of my own next chapter. I'm making space for the next big vision—one that includes in-person interviews, full video episodes, and maybe even a podcast tour.This isn't the end. It's the exhale before the next inhale. Thank you for being here, and thank you for believing in the magic we're building together. I'll be back—and it's going to be so good.

On this episode, taken from The Ben & Marc Show, a16z co-founders Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz dive deep into the unfiltered story behind the founding of Andreessen Horowitz—and how they set out to reinvent venture capital itself. For the first time, Marc and Ben walk through the origins, strategy, and philosophy behind building a world-class venture capital firm designed for the future—not just the next fund. They reveal how they broke industry norms with a bold brand, a full-stack support model, and a long-term commitment to backing exceptional builders—anchored in the radical idea that founders deserved real support, not just checks.

They talk about how group fitness classes and doing the same workouts over and over can only take you so far.To get stronger and build muscle, you have to challenge your body in new ways. They also share signs that you might be stuck, like when your usual weights feel easy or you don't feel sore anymore. Most of all, they remind you that progress takes patience, and you don't need to throw everything out and start over. Small changes can make a big difference!Chapters(00:00) Welcome and Series Introduction(02:00) Why Hard Work Doesn't Always Equal Progress(03:55) The Limits of Group Fitness and HIIT for Muscle Growth(05:30) The Role of Nutrition and Why Low Calories Can Hurt Progress(07:00) How Your Body Adapts and Why Plateaus Happen(09:45) Small Changes That Make a Big Difference(12:30) Common Mistakes When You Feel Stuck(16:00) What You Really Want From Strength Training(18:00) Building Strength for Everyday Life(21:00) What's Coming Next in the SeriesSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective

Could desalination actually help or hurt coastal environments? In this episode, we uncover the secret life of bays, estuaries, and the critters that call them home. Plus — what could desalination mean for our salty ecosystems? Join our hosts Robert and Carrie as they discuss the ecology of bays and estuaries in relation to desalination with Paul Montagna of Harte Research Institute. Got a question for Robert and Carrie? Submit it here—we might answer it on the show! First up, it's the Pop Quiz (02:10) Last episode, Bill Norris and I coined the “Hydro-illogical cycle;” what did we mean by that? A) Constructing desalination facilities is most expensive in times of drought vs times of ample water B) Heavy rains and flooding do not necessarily end drought C) More rain can mean more runoff, resulting in increased pollution of our waterways Today's Keywords: (04:34) Discharge Point: the pipe where the wastewater (brine concentrate) from desalination is released into surrounding water bodies (such as bays or estuaries) Non-point Source Pollution: pollutants that enter water bodies from diffuse sources rather than singular identifiable sources (fertilizer runoff, litter, etc.) Benthic/Benthos: describes anything associated with or occurring on the bottom of a body of water. Today's Guest: Paul Montagna, Endowed Chair for HydroEcology at Harte Research Institute at TAMU-CC Robert Mace introduces our guest (07:44) Paul Montagna explores the ecological impacts of desalination: Waving the Book: Paul discusses his latest written work, Freshwater Inflows to Texas Bays and Estuaries (GO READ IT!!!). (09:27) River Systems Breakdown: What is considered a bay vs estuary, and how do they connect inland water bodies to the coast? (11:50) Nutrient-Rich Nursery Grounds: How coastal regions contribute to safe breeding grounds. (13:50) Bay-stuary Stressors: Paul outlines several integrated factors threatening the health of coastal habitats. (17:45) Combined Priorities: "They care as much as we do,” learn how desalination plant designs often align with environmental priorities. (24:50) Environmental Benefits of Desal: Can desalination replenish other environmental flows? (32:04) And Don't Miss What's Coming Next! Next Episode: Join Robert and Carrie for a discussion about economic considerations of desalination with Gabe Collins of Rice University.

And we're not just talking about the show in the sky on the 4th of July. As you know, President Trump wants the "big, beautiful bill" on his desk to sign his tax cuts permanently into law. But first, some messiness in the Senate is causing angst. Too many changes, then it heads back to the House who barely passed their version weeks ago. Can these two chambers of Congress get on the same page with a week to go? Stigall gets down in the weeds today on this so you're fully up to speed on where it stands and who's on what side of these issues. The former Secretary of the US Senate - Kelly Johnston returns to share perspective on this person you're hearing about called the Senate parliamentarian who's derailing hugely important parts of this bill. But as you'll learn, this person shouldn't and technically doesn't have the power to stop anything. Meanwhile, Congressman Scott Perry on the House side joins us to handicap what's in store when the Senate version passes and makes it way back to a House debate. It's sausage making, but important to know. Plus, Michelle Tafoya on Pete Hegseth referring to "our boys" during the strike on Iran last week, Simone Biles, Caitlin Clark and more.

If you think you're calm, logical, and in control... neuroscience says otherwise. Your brain scans for threats approximately 4–5 times per second. And if you're not training the pause, you're reinforcing the panic! In Part 2 of this raw and revelatory series, therapist and relational neuroscience expert Juliane Taylor Shore joins Dov Baron to dismantle the myth that change is solely about mindset. If you've ever thought: · “Why do I keep attracting the same kind of chaos?” · “Why do I freeze in moments where I should speak up?” · “Why do I feel unsafe… even when everything looks fine?” This episode is your blueprint for breaking that unconscious cycle.

AI isn't here to replace you; it's here to boost your game. Used wisely, AI can be your secret weapon. AI is everywhere: in social selling, content creation, automation, to say the least. Here's the double-edged sword: If you're trying to outsource everything to AI, you won't last. If you're stuck in the old ways, refusing to adapt, you'll get left behind. Top performers are integrating AI into their workflows to make their human skills even sharper. They know AI is the edge they need to rise above the competition. Where AI Actually Delivers Value Think about how much sales time you burn on necessary tasks that don't drive revenue, like data entry and research. That's where AI shines. It handles the repetitive work faster and more accurately than you ever could. Feed it your ideal customer profile, and you can have a filtered list of prospects before you even finish your coffee. AI can analyze thousands of LinkedIn profiles in minutes to identify prospects who match your best customers' characteristics. It can scrape company websites, news articles, and financial reports to give you conversation starters that actually matter. While you're having one discovery call, AI can prep intel for your next five meetings. Consider email outreach. Instead of sending generic templates, AI can help personalize messages at scale using real company data—recent funding rounds, leadership changes, and industry challenges. All this results in open rates that don't make you cringe and response rates that actually justify your time investment. Be Smart About How You Integrate The mistake most sales reps make is thinking AI means "set it and forget it." That's plain wrong. The winners are using AI as a research assistant, not a replacement for judgment. They're feeding it context, reviewing its output, and adding the human insight that turns data into deals. The best use AI to identify patterns in their closed-won deals, then apply those insights to current opportunities. They analyze which messaging resonates with different buyer personas, then craft more targeted outreach. They're not working harder; they're leveraging better intelligence. Take objection handling. AI can analyze your call recordings to identify the most common pushback you're getting, then help you develop stronger responses. It can even suggest which case studies or references would be most compelling for specific prospect types. It's taking your experience and making it work for you at warp speed. What's Coming Next for AI Wait until you see what's on the docket for AI advancements: AI agents that anticipate what you need before you even ask. What if your follow-up email was already drafted after a call, incorporating specific points from the conversation? Your proposal includes ROI calculations tailored to their business model, all generated from publicly available data about their company. AI will soon do more than respond to prompts; it will proactively support your sales process. It'll flag when a deal is stalling based on engagement patterns. It'll suggest the optimal time to follow up based on the prospect's communication preferences. It'll even coach you on your delivery by analyzing successful calls from top performers. That's why the time to adopt is now. Don't let AI's growth outpace your own knowledge of how to use it. Stay on top of new systems and improvements. The Human Element Remains King But here's what AI will never recognize: the moment in a sale when a prospect's voice changes and you know they're really interested. It doesn't have the ability to read between the lines of what someone isn't saying. It lacks the intuition that tells you to pivot your pitch mid-conversation because you've spotted a better angle. AI can't build genuine rapport. It can't adapt to the subtle cues that tell you someone's ready to buy or needs more nurturing. It can't handle the complex, nuanced objections that require empathy and creative...
