Sue Straughan, a tenured hospitality specialist and Corporate Director of Business Solutions for the food distributor Ben E. Keith, shares her remarkable 40+ year journey in the industry, detailing how a necessity job at Baskin Robbins evolved into a profound passion. The discussion centers on her pivotal experience working for Houston's restaurant, where she learned that "chaos and hospitality could coexist in a way that was beautiful", and how she applied these high standards to help turn around the struggling James Coney Island chain. This success was achieved not by raising prices, but by relentlessly focusing on systems, consistency, team pride, and the overall guest experience, demonstrating that flawless execution on the basics is the key to driving sustained sales and word-of-mouth growth.10 Takeaways  Prioritize Execution over Complexity: The most successful businesses, especially in restaurants, focus on doing fewer things perfectly rather than many things averagely. This requires a constant discipline to maintain simplicity. Hospitality and Chaos Coexist: High-volume restaurants (like Houston's with 1-3 hour waits) prove that it's possible to execute 100% flawlessly and maintain composure ("calm in the middle of chaos") by having robust systems and an intentional team culture. The Menu Should Serve the Concept: Keep the menu small and focused (e.g., Houston's one-page, 22-item menu). Introduce new items only if they meet strict time standards (e.g., eight minutes at lunch) and, if needed, replace an existing item to prevent complexity creep. Structure and Systems Build Culture: Employees thrive when they know what is expected of them. Implementing detailed, consistent systems, from cleaning standards to specific service greetings, creates a "well-oiled machine" and instills a sense of pride in the team. Invest in Your Team's Pride: Simple things like new uniforms, standardized training, and daily pre-shift meetings can significantly boost team mentality, tenure, and passion by making employees feel valued and reinforcing the importance of their role. Sales Growth Should Precede Price Hikes: The turnaround at James Coney Island focused first on driving sales by improving the guest experience before considering raising prices. The four ways to drive sales are: raise prices, encourage higher spend per visit, increase visit frequency, or attract new customers. Focus on Low-Hanging Fruit for Revitalization: Start improvement efforts by addressing what the customer sees first, such as clean parking lots, fresh paint, working signage, and clear glass. These visual cues are essential for first impressions. Measure and Reward Hospitality: Implementing a rigorous system like a 10-page mystery shopper report, coupled with accountability and financial rewards for achieving high scores (e.g., $1,000 manager bonus), can directly correlate with rising sales. Focus on What You Can Control: Don't rely on external factors like the weather to drive business. Concentrate effort and resources on perfecting the inside of your four walls: the guest's experience from driving by to walking out. Reverse-Engineer Customer Frustration: Identify the top five things consumers are most frustrated with in your industry (e.g., long waits, inconsistent quality) and intentionally do the exact opposite to stand out and "blow their mind."

Matt confronts the systemic failure of sleep deprivation, examining its impact on our biological machinery. When sleep is short, the body's "fuel gauge" dips, impairing mitochondrial function and glucose tolerance. However, he highlights compelling research on two interventions - creatine supplementation and high-intensity interval training. These act as backup generators, offering a physiological buffer to preserve metabolic and executive functions when rest is unavoidably restricted.The episode explores how creatine serves as a "quick charge" battery for the brain, regenerating adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to sustain processing speed. Matt also details how high-intensity exercise services the body's engine, mitigating drops in glucose tolerance. Ultimately, he frames these tools as "sandbags against a rising tide" - vital for weathering the storm of sleeplessness, yet unable to replace the holistic, restorative power of sleep itself.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.One of this week's sponsors, LMNT, offers a science-based electrolyte drink with no sugar or artificial ingredients.

Kodal Minerals PLC (AIM:KOD) CEO Bernard Aylward talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's successful first shipment of lithium concentrate from its Bougouni Project in Mali, marking a significant milestone for the company. Aylward confirmed that the shipment was completed faster than expected, noting the efficient transport and port-loading process. “The transport to the port actually was very fast as well. And we were very pleased that there were no hiccups here,” he said, highlighting the reliability of West Africa's trucking network. He explained that the $24 million from this initial shipment significantly strengthens Kodal's near-term cash position. The funds will support the ramp-up of stage two at Bougouni, continued drilling, and repayment of shareholder loans. The company is also focused on ensuring the Dense Media Separation (DMS) plant operates at optimal levels. With lithium prices improving, Aylward acknowledged the financial upside: “The better the price, the better it is for us and our shareholders and our joint venture.” He also emphasised the broader community impact, saying, “It's actually affecting the community. It's the positive effect on the people around us and Mali.” Looking ahead, Kodal plans to provide an update on mine site activities and expects to reach nameplate production levels following recent engineering enhancements and de-bottlenecking at the plant.

Concentrate! | No Behaviour podcast Episode 297 by Margs & Loons

The counterintuitive use of sleep deprivation as a rapid treatment for major depression finds itself squarely in Matt's spotlight today. He begins by discussing its origins in the 1970s, where one night of wakefulness induced temporary remission in 40-60% of patients, and goes on to note that this effect is fragile, with an 83% relapse rate after recovery sleep, pointing to a paradox where sleep itself may be depressogenic for some.Matt reviews the neuroscientific explanations, including the "overarousal hypothesis," which suggests the therapy works by calming hyperactive brain regions like the amygdala. The episode also covers chronotherapy's role in extending these benefits before presenting a modern conundrum: a 2022 meta-analysis that challenges the standalone efficacy of sleep deprivation, pitting decades of clinical observation against rigorous scientific review. This sets the stage for a scientific reckoning, where the dream of a fast-acting cure confronts the sobering reality of modern evidence.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.As a huge supporter of mission-driven companies, Matt recommends new partner Branch Basics.

But before we get into my wins, we have to talk about something that's inspiring, and we talk about your wins, and then we'll have a little affirmation, and we will go kick ass for the weekend, because being it till you see it is about honoring what you did do and celebrating that so it's easier for you to see things are moving forward, and not in a masculine action cup of a thing, but just like you are becoming more of the person that you want to be inside and out every single day, right? It's hard, it's hard to be it till you see it in a world like it is today. But 17 powerful sentences by Buddha that will change how you view the world. So I don't know if we'll read all 17, but I'm going to read several of them. The link is in the show notes if you want more. But, the mind is everything, what you think you become. I mean, that's so be it till you see it. The mind is everything, what you think you become. The root of suffering is attachment. And I think that's really interesting. When we are thinking about goals we want to achieve, I miss most of the goals that I have in my life, but so if I was attached to the goal, then I would have no win. But you've heard us talk about how we've like, celebrated acting as if we could win, like being the team, doing all the effort that could have had the win happen, had everything else worked out. So I agree with that one. If you deeply observe everything is your teacher. I love this one because as a Pilates instructor, it's really easy for people to talk, versus just be in observation. And they're like, oh my god, if I'm too quiet too long, then people think I'm not teaching. No. Make sure they know what you're looking at. But like, be in observation, because then their body teaches you what it needs. Three things cannot be long hidden, the sun, the moon and the truth. Oh, I want to believe that one so bad right now. If you light a lamp for somebody, it will also brighten your path. Fuck yes, I love that. Do not dwell on the past. Do not dream of the future. Concentrate the mind on the present movement. Well, that is Pilates, right there. I said I wasn't gonna read them all, but I'm just loving them all. There's no path to happiness. Happiness is the path. Before you speak, let your words pass through three gates. Is it true? Is it necessary? Is it kind? I mean that something we can all live by. Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else. You are the one who gets burned. Change is never painful, only the resistance to change is painful. Oh, I like that being it till you see it, it's not painful. The resistance will suck. What you think you become, what you feel you attract, what you imagine you create. Oh my gosh. Well, I'll leave the rest for you. But you guys these, I mean, I might have to bring the other ones back for another day. These are so great. I might just keep them for affirmations at the end of an episode on another day. I really love sharing things. Because I hope you know, when I find these things, I save them, I'm like, I'm thinking of you, like, I'm truly thinking of you. Lesley Logan 5:06  Okay, so I got a bunch of wins that you all sent me on Instagram, so I'm gonna read some of them for you. How about it's time for your wins, and these are quickies, so let's do a few. All right, KelliePilates, I hit my goal of four to six miles walking five days in a row. Holy freaking moly, KelliePilates, four to six miles, that's a long time to walk. I do about four-ish every day, because I do two in the morning and two-ish at night. But like, it's obviously like I have a dog that makes it easier, but that's amazing. Five days in a row. What a goal. Pilateswithsarahk, completed my observation hours for my Pilates teacher training program and went to PT Pilates and a dog walk today. Do you see? Okay, okay, I love Sarah so much because she's like, today I was able to go to PT Pilates and a dog walk. Winning. Like y'all just completing the task on your schedule is a win. Okay? Okay. All right. And then this is my neighbor, tanamarieshow, I'm gonna share it because it made me laugh. So every Friday I ask you, like, what are your wins drop them below, right? And I was walking through the casino to go to the gym this morning, and so you could hear the music playing in the casino on the story. And so here it is. My win today. Is that love potion number nine was a soundtrack to your walk to the gym. She literally was singing it all day long in her head or out loud at her house. I love that so much. What a win that you could just, like, get a good song stuck in your head, and it just makes your day. So you can send your wins in to beitpod.com/questions so you could ask questions, you can share wins, and then I will shout them out. And we all need to remember our wins like it's really fun for me to go back sometimes I'm telling you wins that happened in the past, because it just wasn't time to tell you, and it's like, oh yeah, I did that. I slayed that. So my win today, okay, so the win is my in-laws are visiting, okay? And I know, like, for some people that may be like, that's a win? It's a win, okay? So the last time they visited was the weekend we got married. They, you know, when I met them, I think they had mentioned that they were going to come visit, you know. And then when we got engaged, we knew the dates that they're visiting. We got engaged in May of 2015 and then we knew they were visiting October of 2015 so when Brad and I Brad, I was gonna marry him, and we were driving home from our camp, he's like, well, when you want to marry and I was like, you think your parents will come again, and they might not know this. And so if they're listening, I'm sorry, but like, this is the truth. And he's like, I don't know. And I was like, well then, I guess we're getting married in October. So they haven't been back to visit. Now, to their defense, there was a, there was a pandemic in there, and then they had an older dog, and they had to move whatever, blah, blah, but, they had kept saying they're gonna visit. We've lived in Vegas for over five years, and they kept saying they'll visit and I wanted them to visit. I want them to see the house we live. And I want to see them more. I like them. So I am saying it's a win, because I was a dog with a bone with like, when are you coming? And Brad was doing that and together and with a little passive well, Brad said it was not passive aggressive. It was extremely aggressive. I literally on a FaceTime was like, I just don't think you like me. And then they bought a plane ticket. And so what I'm going to say is the win is, if you want something to happen, do not stop. Just keep going. And if you're not getting what you want, don't be afraid to just be plain and simple and ask, am I not getting this because you don't like me or like, what is like, I promise you, you'll get the right answer, right? You're gonna get a great answer. And if the answer was, yeah, we don't like you, well then I just save myself trips at Christmas time. Like, no big deal, you know? I mean, like, I'm sure that would hurt my feelings, but like, the reality is, there's nothing is ever as bad as you think. So, my win is my in laws are visiting, and our team knew in enough advance that Brad could take almost the entire time off with his family to be here, and I only have a little bit of work to do, so I get to be with them, so we're like, on vacation in our own home, which is like the greatest thing in the world, right? Lesley Logan 9:03  Okay, time for a little affirmation for you for the weekend. When I forgive myself, I free myself. When I forgive myself, I free myself. When I forgive myself, I free myself. Babe, what do you need to forgive yourself from? What's going on in your life that you're like just playing over and over and you're having a broken record like you should have done better. Just forgive yourself. You free yourself. Have an amazing day. Lesley Logan 9:29  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

Welcome to the Via Stoica Podcast, the podcast on Stoicism.What if love begins not with grand gestures, but with simple attention? In this episode, we explore the link between love, presence, and awareness — what philosopher Simone Weil called “attention.” In a distracted world, the Stoics remind us that attention is more than focus; it's a moral act, a form of love, and the foundation of a virtuous life.Drawing from the wisdom of Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius, this episode reflects on prosochē, the Stoic discipline of attention. Epictetus warns, “When you relax your attention for a while, do not fancy you will recover it whenever you please.” (Discourses, 4.12).For the Stoics, this wasn't about perfection, but about wakefulness. Attention trains the mind to notice impressions before they harden into judgments, to respond instead of react, and to live deliberately. Marcus Aurelius reminds himself: “Concentrate every minute like a Roman… on doing what's in front of you with precise and genuine seriousness.” (Meditations, 2.5). In other words, love life by truly being present in it.Here are a few Stoic practices from this episode you can explore in your own life:Examine your impressions – Pause before reacting. Notice your first impulse and ask: “Is this really good or bad, or just my opinion?”Practice deep listening – Give someone your full presence. Listen not to reply, but to understand.Anchor in the present – When your thoughts drift to the past or future, bring attention back to the task or person before you.Pause and breathe – When overwhelmed, take one slow breath and ask: “What deserves my attention right now?”In a time when our focus is scattered by screens, tasks, and constant noise, attention becomes an act of rebellion, and of love. It's how we connect with others, with nature, and with ourselves. Stoicism teaches that to live wisely is to live attentively: seeing what is, accepting it fully, and acting from virtue.By the end of this episode, you'll see that Stoicism isn't a cold philosophy of detachment, but a way of living gratefully, wisely, and in harmony with what is.Listen to the full episode now and discover how attention can transform the way you think, act, and see your life.Read the companion article: https://viastoica.com/what-is-prosocheSupport the show

Eric speaks with David Dinkens of Dinkens Aquatic Gardens, they discuss his business that supplies reef aquariums with phytoplankton and copepods. The conversation covers the accidental start of his business, which grew from a hobby of setting up a saltwater tank and culturing the microalgae and crustaceans, to his current status as a full-time supplier who left a career as a history teacher. Key topics include the importance of phytoplankton as the foundation of the reef food chain, its role in nutrient control (nitrate and phosphate reduction), and the benefits for coral health and coloration. Dinkens also provides detailed advice on dosing his products and explains the need for a clean, sterile environment for culturing his live foods. Key Takeaways: If a new endeavor seems intimidating, start by doing thorough research to learn the ropes. Embrace small experiments, as they can sometimes accidentally lead to new opportunities and businesses. Maintain a resilient outlook, remembering that difficult situations often have a flip side or a silver lining. Find a hobby, such as keeping an aquarium, that provides a soothing contrast to a busy or fast-paced life. Concentrate on building the foundation of your ecosystem from the bottom up by establishing a strong base layer of the food chain.

Feeding your horse shouldn't feel overwhelming, but with all the buzzwords floating around, it's easy to wonder what's truth and what's fiction.On this episode of Beyond the Barn, host Katy Starr chats with Dr. Kelly Vineyard, PhD equine nutritionist, to break down today's most talked about feeding trends - like forage-based, forage-only, grain-free, low-starch, organic, and natural diets, and what those terms really mean for your horse's health.The key differences between forage-only, forage-first, and forage-based feeding (and what's right for your horse)What grain-free and low-NSC actually mean (and when they matter most)Why social media can make horse feeding sound more complicated than it isIf you've ever felt confused by feed labels or online advice, this episode will help you cut through the noise and get back to the basics - feeding your horse for health, not hype.

Framing sleep not as a biological necessity, but as a critical economic asset, Matt reveals that sleep deprivation costs the U.S. economy up to $411 billion annually, with billions more lost globally. These costs stem from lost workplace productivity, severe cognitive impairment equivalent to intoxication, and massive strains on healthcare and public safety systems due to chronic disease and accidents like drowsy driving.Matt provides the solution: investing in sleep as a powerful economic stimulus. Modest improvements in sleep duration could inject hundreds of billions back into the economy, with corporate sleep programs and insomnia treatments showing remarkable returns on investment. On a personal level, adequate sleep is directly linked to higher lifetime earnings and better financial decisions. The episode ultimately reframes sleep as a crucial economic investment for both personal and societal prosperity, not a sacrifice of productivity.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.As a huge supporter of mission-driven companies, Matt recommends new partner Branch Basics.

Distractions in the workplace are almost endless, from Slack group notifications to questions from colleagues to the dozen or more tabs you've got open in your browser. By the time your next meeting comes along, you realise two hours have passed and you've barely done any productive work at all.  Sound familiar? Thankfully there's a method to improve your efficiency and concentration which may help. It's called deep work. We owe it to Cal Newport, a computer science professor at Georgetown University in the US. Newport is a renowned figure in personal development and in 2016 he released a self-help book entitled: Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World, which would go on to be a bestseller. Where does the concept come from? What's the best way to concentrate on deep work? What if my boss and colleagues think I'm being rude? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In this episode of the Econ Dev Show, Dane Carlson sits down with Molly Howey, CEO of the Greater Topeka Partnership, to discuss how Topeka is redefining what is possible for mid-sized U.S. cities. Molly shares how uniting economic development, downtown revitalization, tourism, and the chamber under one strategic umbrella helped the city align its vision and accelerate growth. From transforming a once-quiet airfield into a future industrial hub, to building momentum in the Animal Health Corridor and nurturing homegrown startups, Molly reveals the creative thinking and community grit driving Topeka forward. Her story offers powerful lessons for any economic developer aiming to build sustainable, people-centered progress in their community. Like this show? Please leave us a review here (https://econdevshow.com/rate-this-podcast/) — even one sentence helps! Ten Actionable Takeaways for Economic Developers Build coalitions that outlast personalities. Lasting economic momentum comes from strong systems, not single champions. Create structures that unite business, government, and community voices under shared priorities that continue beyond individual leaders. Treat your community as your product. Successful economic developers are storytellers and brand builders. Invest in placemaking, amenities, and perception as deliberately as you do in incentive packages and infrastructure. Leverage what already works. Identify your city's natural strengths--industry clusters, geographic advantages, or workforce skills--and double down on them. Sustainable growth often comes from amplifying existing assets, not chasing trends. Make collaboration your default setting. Align chambers, tourism groups, and EDOs so they speak with one voice. Shared data, messaging, and strategy save resources and multiply your impact. Blend local grit with global reach. Topeka's partnership with Plug and Play shows how even smaller markets can attract international innovation by thinking globally while staying true to local identity. Focus on people as much as projects. Workforce, childcare, housing, and livability are no longer "supporting factors" but central pillars of competitiveness. Put people at the center of every initiative. Tell your story relentlessly. Economic development is half execution and half narrative. Share wins, celebrate progress, and communicate constantly to reshape how residents and outsiders view your community. Simplify your strategy to amplify impact. Broad plans can dilute focus. Concentrate on a few bold goals that your team and partners can rally around, and measure success through consistent, visible progress. Encourage entrepreneurship as a civic value. Support for small businesses, startups, and innovation hubs builds resilience and broadens economic opportunity across every layer of the local economy. Keep learning, listening, and adapting. The best economic developers are curious. Study other regions, borrow ideas shamelessly, invite new perspectives, and stay flexible as industries and demographics evolve. Special Guest: Molly Howey.

From The Way Out Is In, the official podcast of Thich Nhat Hanh's Plum Village tradition, co-hosted by frequent 10% guest Brother Chan Phap Huu and leadership coach Jo Confino. In this installment, Brother Phap Huu and Jo discuss the true meaning of Zen, finding beauty and meaning in simplicity, and how to practice so in everyday life. Also, what does it mean to be part of a Zen tradition? And how do we practice Zen? How do we see the world ‘through the eyes of Zen'? The conversation also touches upon the cultivation of mindfulness, concentration, and insight; the importance of humility; finding beauty in the mundane; the sacredness of objects and spaces; the role of rituals and routines; the balance between sophistication and simplicity in one's spiritual practice; and much more. The episode concludes with a short meditation, guided by Brother Phap Huu, on being present and grateful for the wonders of life. Get ready for another Meditation Party at Omega Institute!

Episode 508: 9 Coach-Approved Strategies to Finish Your Season StrongIt's the last weekend of September, and while the calendar says fall, the racing season is still going strong! Whether you're heading to Kona, IRONMAN California, 70.3 Worlds, Cozumel, Florida, or another big race, this is your moment to lean into the grit and finish the season with purpose.In this episode, Rich shares 9 coach-approved strategies to help you stay mentally and physically sharp for your late-season push. From mindset shifts to training tweaks, these tips are designed to help you show up strong and finish proud.What's inside this week:

Founder & CEO of Elevated Medical, Dr. Avinish Reddy, joins Matt today on this very special episode to discuss a comprehensive approach to longevity. One core theme presented is the profound interconnectedness of physical, mental, and cognitive well-being, essential for true health optimization. Dr. Reddy emphasizes the striking impact of social connection: isolation can increase early death risk by 50%, comparable to smoking. He believes fostering strong social bonds is a fundamental pillar of healthcare, akin to sleep's importance.The discussion highlights advanced diagnostics and actionable lifestyle strategies. Dr. Reddy advocates for precise cardiovascular risk assessment (apoB) and early metabolic dysfunction detection (fasting insulin/OGTT), with imaging (CT/CIMT) that visualizes arterial health proactively. As you will hear, prevention must begin decades before major health events, utilizing personalized data, and lifestyle is paramount - consistent movement, balanced nutrition, quality sleep, and stress management are vital for reversing conditions and fostering resilience.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.As a huge supporter of mission-driven companies, Matt recommends new partner Branch Basics.

In this episode of Connected Leadership Bytes, Andy Lopata revisits his conversation with Alisa Cohn, executive coach and author of From Startup to Grown Up. Alisa Cohn, named the Top Startup Coach in the World, shares her insights on the crucial role of professional relationships at various stages of a leader's journey. Andy and Alisa discuss the concept of "champions" in one's network and emphasise nurturing relationships authentically rather than for a specific purpose. Alisa provides strategies for leaders at different stages and they look at adapting networking strategies in a post-pandemic world, highlighting the value of virtual connections and creativity. Alisa also stresses that leaders must "find a way" to build relationships, as it is essential for career growth. The discussion also touches on the psychological aspects of leadership, such as managing self-talk, and offers practical advice for co-founder dynamics and navigating difficult conversations with scripts Alisa provides in her book. Key Takeaways: Networking is Non-Negotiable: Building and nurturing relationships is essential for your career, and you must always find a way to connect with others, regardless of external circumstances. Strategic Relationship Building: The key people you need in your network evolve as your career progresses; be strategic about connecting with mentors, investors, peers, or customers depending on your current stage. Authenticity Over Transaction: The most powerful relationships are nurtured naturally over time. Concentrate on being helpful and authentic, and you will reap the benefits. Lead Yourself First: Your self-image and internal dialogue directly impact your ability to build relationships. Managing your own mindset is the first step to effective leadership. Communication is Foundational: Clear communication, especially around expectations and values, is critical for preventing conflict and building strong partnerships. Actionable Insights: Map Your Network Needs: Identify what career stage you are in (startup, scale-up, or established leader) and list the three types of connections that would be most valuable to you right now. Then, devise a strategy to meet people in those categories. Practice Positive Outreach: The next time you reach out to someone new, do your research first. Reference something specific you admire about their work, explain the mutual value in connecting, and if possible, mention a shared contact with context. Develop a "Co-founder Prenup": If you have a business partner, set aside time to discuss and align on core values, long-term vision, and how you will handle disagreements. This proactive conversation can prevent future conflicts.  SELECTED LINKS FROM THE EPISODE Connect with Andy Lopata: Website | Instagram | LinkedIn | X/Twitter | YouTube Connect with Alisa Cohnr: Website |LinkedIn | The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring Episode 135 Featuring Alisa Cohn

As a TriDot Triathlon Coach, I've seen firsthand how predictive analytics can transform training outcomes. Today, we'll break down the development, race-specific, and taper phases of training, explore the importance of strength and mobility, and give you actionable tips for race rehearsals, race week workouts, and pacing strategies across different race distances. Let's get into it!” Training Phases with RunDot Development Phase (April) “This is where the foundation is built. The development phase focuses on aerobic capacity, muscular endurance, and overall durability. RunDot uses your biometric and performance data to personalize your training load—so you're not just following a generic plan, you're following your plan. Expect to see: Zone 2 endurance runs to build aerobic efficiency. Hill repeats and strides to improve strength and form. Aerobic intervals that challenge your cardiovascular system without overloading it. This phase is also where strength and mobility work are critical. Think squats, lunges, planks, and dynamic mobility drills. These movements help prevent injury and improve your running economy.” Race-Specific Phase (Lauren) “Now we shift gears. The race-specific phase is all about sharpening your race pace and simulating race conditions. RunDot adjusts your workouts based on your predicted race performance, so you're training at the right intensity. Key workouts include: Tempo runs to dial in your race pace. Long runs with race pace segments to simulate race fatigue. Intervals that mimic the demands of your target race. This is also the time for race rehearsals. Practice everything—your gear, your nutrition, your hydration strategy. If you're racing trails, get on technical terrain. If it's a road race, practice on similar surfaces and elevation profiles.” Taper Phase (Rich) “The taper phase is where the magic happens. You're reducing volume to shed fatigue while maintaining intensity to stay sharp. RunDot's predictive engine ensures you're not tapering too much or too little. During taper: Keep intensity with short intervals and strides. Reduce volume gradually. Focus on mental preparation—visualize your race, review your pacing strategy, and trust your training.” Strength & Mobility: The Unsung Heroes (Lauren) “Strength and mobility work aren't optional—they're essential. They: Prevent overuse injuries. Improve running efficiency. Enhance power and stride mechanics. RunDot integrates strength sessions based on your recovery status and training load. So if you're feeling fatigued, it'll dial back the intensity. If you're fresh, it'll push you a bit more.” Race Week Workouts & Shakeout Runs (April) “Race week is all about staying loose and confident. Here's a sample structure: Monday–Wednesday: Easy runs with strides, light strength work. Thursday–Friday: Short intervals or race pace efforts—30 to 60 seconds. Saturday: Shakeout run—15 to 20 minutes easy with a few strides. Sunday: Race day! Shakeout runs help reduce anxiety, loosen up your muscles, and reinforce your rhythm and cadence.” Race Pacing Tips by Distance 5K - Rich Go out strong but controlled. Settle into pace by the first mile. Finish with a kick. Use strides and short intervals in taper week to stay sharp. 10K - Lauren Controlled first half, push the second half. Practice pacing in race-specific workouts. Don't go out too fast—let your fitness shine in the back half. Half Marathon - April Aim for even pacing or a slight negative split. Long runs with race pace segments are key. Fuel early and consistently. Full Marathon - Rich Start conservatively—don't chase pace early. Stay steady through the middle miles. Prepare mentally for the final 10K. Practice fueling during long runs to avoid bonking. Trail vs Road Racing - Lauren Trail: Focus on effort over pace. Practice technical terrain and elevation changes. Road: Dial in cadence and pacing. Use flat intervals to simulate race conditions. Closing Thoughts - Rich “RunDot by Predictive Fitness is a game-changer. It takes the guesswork out of training and helps you peak at the right time. Whether you're chasing a PR or finishing your first race, trust the process, stay consistent, and enjoy the journey. Get Gritty Tip: What's Your Success Criteria?  One of the biggest mindset traps athletes (and high achievers in general) fall into is measuring success by what hasn't been accomplished yet—what Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy call living in “the gap.” The way out is creating a Success Criteria List, which shifts your focus from what's missing to what's meaningful. Here's the challenge: Write down three to five criteria that define success for YOU—right now, in this season. Make them simple, tangible, and personal. For example: I'm successful when I show up consistently for my workouts. I'm successful when I recover well and prioritize sleep. I'm successful when I enjoy at least one workout each week with friends or teammates. Notice how none of these depend on a finish time or podium. Instead, they anchor you in daily wins that compound over time. When you measure against your own list, you gain confidence, resilience, and perspective—no matter what the scoreboard says. Action Item: Take five minutes today to craft your own Success Criteria List. Post it where you'll see it daily—on your fridge, in your training log, or on your phone. Each time you check off a criteria, you're stacking wins. Over time, this list becomes your proof that you're already making progress—and that you're firmly in “the gain.” TriDot Workout of the Week: Stamina Ride Speaking of putting in the work, April, this week's featured workout is the Long Ride, or Stamina Ride. This workout goes out to Caroline and Stephanie who are getting ready to do the Boulder Century on September 7th. We're rooting for you. I also did my own version of this on Monday, and drove out to Canon City, Colorado and road some incredible trails including the aptly named Shiv, Redemption. And the Great Escape trails. It was as great as a mental challenge as it was physical, which is why the Stamina Ride is so important. You'll start with a warmup: 10 minutes in Zone 2 with 3 x 30-second spinups and 3 x 1-minute efforts in Zone 4. Then the main set—3 x 12 minutes at Zone 4 with 5 minutes recovery, 1 x 10 minutes at Zone 2, and 10 x 10 minutes at Zone 3 with 2 minutes recovery. Keep all recoveries and balance of time in Zone 2. Here's the key—when you're in those longer stamina sessions, stay in your race position as if you're racing. Sit up to stretch if you need, then get back down and dial in. Keep your cadence steady: Zone 2 and 3 efforts at 90+ rpm, Zone 4 efforts at 80 rpm. And remember—aim to make the last repeat as strong as the first. What do you think about the Stamina ride, Rich? Anything else to add? What I really love about this stamina ride is how it mimics the demands of long-course racing. Those multiple 10-minute Zone 3 pushes let you sit right on that edge—where it's uncomfortable, but still sustainable—just like in a 70.3, full IRONMAN, or Century Ride. You're teaching your body and mind how to hold strong at race effort, manage the discomfort, and then back off just enough to go the distance. This one showed up for me last week, and I also have a century ride this weekend.  It's the perfect prep to build the resilience you need for long days in the saddle. Now, workouts like the Stamina Ride teach us grit, focus, and the ability to stay locked in for the long haul. But triathlon isn't just about the grind—it's also about enjoying the ride, laughing a little, and not taking ourselves too seriously. That's why we've got a fun segment lined up next!    Fun Segment: Not My Job! Triathlete Edition   In NPR's Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me!, the “Not My Job” segment brings in a celebrity guest and quizzes them on something totally unrelated to their expertise.

Matt and Dr. Eti Ben Simon join forces once again to answer all of your top sleep questions. This time around, they break down the science behind the snooze button, why you might be falling asleep during passive activities like watching TV, and the truth about sleep fads like consuming salt before bed or using "grounding sheets." The episode also explores the frustrating issue of sleep fragmentation - waking up multiple times a night - and why it undermines sleep quality even if you fall back asleep quickly.Learn how to assess your own sleep quality using key daytime indicators like energy and mood, without needing a tracker. For those struggling with frequent awakenings, discover a powerful, science-backed strategy called "bedtime restructuring" to help consolidate your sleep. The episode concludes with a look at new research on a potential "fail-safe" for sleep induction linked to mitochondrial stress, revealing a new frontier in sleep science.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.As a huge supporter of mission-driven companies, Matt recommends new partner Branch Basics.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Viktoria Altman discuss:Risk and mindset in legal marketingHow to evaluate and choose marketing vendorsNiche focus and ideal client definition as a growth strategyThe emerging impact of AI on search, ads, and brand identity Key Takeaways:Lawyers should stop chasing random acts of marketing and instead copy proven tactics used by competitors who serve the same client profile and budget. Vet agencies should ask to speak with their clients in the same practice area and budget bracket and avoid unrealistically low-priced proposals. Concentrate marketing spend on one prioritized niche or ideal client profile first, then expand once that channel is sustainably profitable. AI-driven search will increasingly assemble a practitioner's brand from published content and reviews, shifting the long game toward owned content (transcripts, guest posts, reviews) and away from manipulable paid placements. "If you are doing anything on social media, it has to come from your heart." —  Viktoria Altman Unlock the secrets of rainmaking success—join Steve Fretzin and four powerhouse legal experts for Be That Lawyer LIVE on August 27; reserve your spot now at fretzin.com/events. Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

Matt explores the human capacity for echolocation this week, dismantling the myth that this "biological sonar" is exclusive to animals. Revealing how peer-reviewed research shows all human brains possess the neural hardware to "see" with sound, Matt explains the physics of how sound creates detailed acoustic maps of our environment and introduces the brain's remarkable plasticity, setting the stage for this incredible sensory adaptation.The episode features stories of pioneers like Daniel Kish, who use echolocation to navigate with astonishing precision. Matt discusses groundbreaking studies from UC Berkeley and Durham University, where brain scans revealed the visual cortex rewires itself to process sound as spatial information. This evidence proves echolocation is not a rare gift but a learnable skill, forcing a reevaluation of the limits of human perception and the brain's adaptive power.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.As a huge supporter of mission-driven companies, Matt recommends new partner Branch Basics.
