In this week's episode, we're taking a little break from our usual career and business conversations for a more personal discussion. After sharing on Instagram that I don't use certain products in my own home, I received a flood of questions about the products we do use and how I've approached reducing our family's overall toxic burden. I'm not a medical professional, and I certainly don't have all the answers, but I wanted to share what has worked for me, where I started, and why I believe small, intentional changes can add up over time.I talk about my philosophy on low-tox living, the apps I use to research products, ways to support your body's natural detoxification systems, and some of my favorite swaps for hair care, skincare, makeup, deodorant, sunscreen, and more. Most importantly, I share why I believe this journey doesn't have to be overwhelming. You don't have to throw everything away overnight. Sometimes the best approach is simply replacing products one at a time as they run out and making choices that feel realistic and sustainable for your family.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:Click here for all product recommendations from this episodeEpisode 85: Journey to Wellness with Jenna OchsnerEpisode 138: Girl Talk (with Jena Oschner): Rethinking “Healthy,” Part 1Join The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job DescriptionGet our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipGet our FREE resource: 10 Resume Mistakes (and how to fix them)Get our FREE resource: How to Avoid the 7 Biggest Hiring Mistakes Employers MakeEmail us at hello@ofthewest.coSubscribe to Of The West's ⁠NewslettersList your jobs on ⁠Of The West

What if the quality of your life is hidden inside the quality of the questions you're willing to ask?In this episode of ALLSMITH, Bryce explores a collection of questions that have been sitting with him lately—questions sparked by conversations with clients, friends, guests, members of the ALLSMITH community, and his own experiences navigating health, relationships, grief, business, marriage, and personal growth.This isn't an episode about having all the answers.It's a conversation and an exploration.An exploration of commitment, loneliness, purpose, health, character, judgment, observation, wonder, and what it actually means to build a beautiful life in a world that often feels busy, distracted, entertained, and disconnected.Bryce dives into topics like people pleasing, ghosting culture, confidence, modern loneliness, social media validation, courage, responsibility, and why many of life's greatest breakthroughs begin with a better question.At ALLSMITH, we believe fitness is the vessel.But the destination has always been something bigger:A beautiful life.And sometimes a single question can change the direction of an entire life.In This Episode:Are you exhausted because life is hard, or because you're carrying things that no longer belong to you?The difference between being nice and being goodWhy confidence is built through evidence, not affirmationWhat commitment can teach us about health, relationships, business, and lifeGhosting culture and the cost of avoiding responsibilityThe hidden difference between recovery and escapeWhy money can't solve loneliness, purpose, or belongingReplacing judgment with observation and curiosityLearning how to wonder instead of reactListening to the signals your body has been sendingQuestioning your definition of successLearning to trust yourself and make difficult decisionsWhat grief, adversity, and uncertainty can teach usWhy better questions often lead to better livesQuotes From This Episode:“Confidence is built through evidence, not affirmation.”“Resentment is often the receipt for an agreement we never should have made.”“The life you want is often hidden behind the commitment you're avoiding.”“The body whispers before it screams.”“A full calendar doesn't guarantee a full life.”“The wrong mountain still takes a lifetime to climb.”“Clarity is often the reward for courage.”“Every season leaves something behind for those willing to pay attention.”Key Takeaways:Better questions often create better lives.Character matters more than reputation.Commitment is becoming a lost art—and one of life's greatest competitive advantages.Observation creates understanding. Judgment often ends it.Wonder and curiosity are powerful tools for growth.Health is not the destination, but it may be the most important vehicle.Building a beautiful life requires intention, courage, and consistency.The quality of your life is often hidden inside the quality of the questions you're willing to ask.Question of the Week:What question are you avoiding because you're afraid of the answer?Sit with it.Journal on it.Bring it to dinner.Talk about it with someone you trust.Because sometimes the question we've been avoiding is the one we need most.Connect With ALLSMITH:Instagram: @allsmithcoBryce: @therealbrycesmithWebsite: http://ALLSMITH.coSubscribe to the ALLSMITH Newsletter for weekly reflections, practical tools, stories, and conversations designed to help you build a stronger body, sharper mind, and more meaningful life.If this episode resonates with you, share it with a friend and send us the question that's been sitting with you lately.At ALLSMITH, we don't just search for better answers.We ask better questions.Much love.Welcome to ALLSMITH.Thank you for Listening!

In this week's episode, I'm sharing a lesson that came from a foggy drive across southern Idaho and the perspective it gave me about navigating uncertainty in life and business. We all go through seasons where we can't clearly see what's ahead, whether it's a career transition, a business challenge, a relationship struggle, or simply feeling stuck. In those moments, our instinct is often to stop and wait for clarity, but what I've learned is that clarity rarely comes from standing still. It comes from continuing to move forward, even when you can only see a few feet ahead.I also share why I think there are different types of “fog” in life, the temporary kind that clears quickly and the heavier kind that settles in for a season. We talk about the power of momentum, why movement creates clarity, and the lesson we can learn from buffalo, which instinctively run into a storm instead of away from it. If you're navigating a season of uncertainty, this episode is a reminder that the road ahead still exists, even when you can't fully see it yet.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:Join The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job DescriptionGet our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipGet our FREE resource: 10 Resume Mistakes (and how to fix them)Get our FREE resource: How to Avoid the 7 Biggest Hiring Mistakes Employers MakeEmail us at hello@ofthewest.coSubscribe to Of The West's ⁠NewslettersList your jobs on ⁠Of The WestMentioned in this episode:Click below to check out open jobs on Of The West.Open Jobs on Of The West

I'm back with another episode for our solo summer series. Today, I'm sharing a lesson that started with hard-boiled eggs and ended with a $450 plumbing bill. What seemed like a harmless tip I found online turned out to be completely wrong, and it got me thinking about how often we accept information as fact simply because we saw it on the internet. From social media posts and viral headlines to AI-generated content and misinformation, I'm diving into why it's more important than ever to slow down, ask questions, and think critically about the information we consume and share.I talk about confirmation bias, fact-checking, AI, social media algorithms, and the responsibility we all have to protect our credibility and the industries we care about. More than anything, this episode is a reminder that just because something sounds true doesn't make it true. If you've ever shared an article without reading it, believed a viral headline, or wondered how to navigate an internet that feels increasingly difficult to trust, this conversation is for you. And yes, you'll also leave with my foolproof 10-5-10 hard-boiled egg method.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:Join The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job DescriptionGet our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipGet our FREE resource: 10 Resume Mistakes (and how to fix them)Get our FREE resource: How to Avoid the 7 Biggest Hiring Mistakes Employers MakeEmail us at hello@ofthewest.coSubscribe to Of The West's ⁠NewslettersList your jobs on ⁠Of The WestMentioned in this episode:Click below to check out open jobs on Of The West.Open Jobs on Of The West

Welcome to our very first summer episode of Leaders of the West! For June and July, we're doing something a little different around here. Instead of guest interviews, I'm spending the summer diving into more solo episodes, talking about life, business, career growth, hiring, job seeking, and the heart behind why Of The West was created in the first place. And to kick things off, we're re-airing the most downloaded solo episode we've ever released, How to Push Through a Losing Season.Originally recorded in December 2023, this episode is an incredibly personal conversation about walking through difficult seasons in both life and business. I share some of the hardest experiences my family faced, what helped us keep moving forward, and the mindset shifts that carried us through uncertainty and loss. We also talk about recognizing patterns, preparing for hard seasons before they happen, and why resilience is something we build over time. Whether this episode finds you in a difficult season right now or simply preparing for whatever life may bring next, I hope it reminds you that hard seasons never last forever.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:Join The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job DescriptionGet our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipGet our FREE resource: 10 Resume Mistakes (and how to fix them)Get our FREE resource: How to Avoid the 7 Biggest Hiring Mistakes Employers MakeEmail us at hello@ofthewest.coSubscribe to Of The West's ⁠NewslettersList your jobs on ⁠Of The WestMentioned in this episode:Click below to check out open jobs on Of The West.Open Jobs on Of The West

In this week's episode, I'm sitting down with Brent Turner, founder of Agri-Generational and author of Piece of Land, for a conversation that I honestly think every farm and ranch family needs to hear. We dive into the realities of succession planning, why so many families avoid these conversations, and what's actually at stake when there's no clear plan in place. Brent shares how his background in financial planning and decades of working alongside agricultural families led him to focus exclusively on helping farms and ranches navigate transition, continuity, and legacy. We also talk about the emotional side of succession, the different “hats” operators wear inside a business, and why the role of “chief wisdom officer” may be one of the most important positions in a family operation. More than anything, this episode is about building something that lasts, empowering the next generation, and making sure the future of your operation is determined by design instead of default. Whether you're actively involved in succession conversations or hoping to create something different for your own family one day, this episode is packed with perspective and practical takeaways.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with BrentVisit the Agri-Generational websiteConnect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:Agri-Generational QuizPeace of Land by Brent TurnerLonesome Dove by Larry McMurtryJoin The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job DescriptionGet our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipGet our FREE resource: 10 Resume Mistakes (and how to fix them)Get our FREE resource: How to Avoid the 7 Biggest Hiring Mistakes Employers MakeEmail us at hello@ofthewest.coSubscribe to Of The West's ⁠NewslettersList your jobs on ⁠Of The WestMentioned in this episode:Click below to see Open Jobs on Of The West Open Jobs on Of The West

The user-agent string in the HTTP header has been there since the 1990s. The web was built with software navigating it on someone's behalf. For thirty years that someone was a human. That changes now. Matt Biilmann, CEO and co-founder of Netlify, was one of the first to take seriously what it means when the "user" navigating the web is an AI agent. He published the foundational essay on Agent Experience in January 2025, pivoted his entire company around it, and recently shipped netlify.ai as a separate entry point built for agents. We cover the four pillars of Agent Experience, why every product already has an agent experience whether you designed one or not, content negotiation as a way to tell agents to go to a different URL than humans, why SaaS is in real trouble (with a story from inside Netlify about ripping out vendor contracts), how the data-structure assumption that has defined software for fifty years is breaking, and the one thing every website owner should start doing this week.About the GuestMatt Biilmann is the CEO and co-founder of Netlify, the platform that started the Jamstack movement and is leading the shift from developer experience to agent experience. His January 2025 essay on Agent Experience is the foundational text for the discipline. Chapters00:00 Every product has an agent experience (cold open)00:35 The architectural question01:46 Welcome Matt to No Hacks02:15 When AX became a design constraint, not a concept06:44 The January 28 2025 essay and who got it first10:22 Why netlify.ai was built as a separate website12:44 Content negotiation: telling agents to go to a different URL13:54 Qualitative data and the Axis eval framework17:12 Does AX apply to e-commerce and content websites?20:59 The cumulative media argument (TV did not kill radio)25:00 User-agent in HTTP and Al Gore-era agent commerce laws26:33 SaaS business model is dead: build-vs-buy is shifting30:44 The end of structured content as a hard constraint40:25 One thing every website owner should do now43:08 Where to find Matt onlineKey TakeawaysEvery website already has an agent experience. Agent Experience is how AI agents currently interact with your product, whether through computer use, fetching, or working around the barriers you put up. It is not a feature you add. The only question is whether the experience is good or bad.The four pillars: Access, Context, Tools, Orchestration. Matt's framework for thinking about AX systematically. Access answers whether agents can reach your product at all. Context is the prompt-engineering equivalent for agents. Tools are the concrete capabilities you expose. Orchestration covers how agents string those tools together inside your product.Build a separate entry point for agents. netlify.ai is purpose-built for agents while netlify.com remains the human entry point. Content negotiation tells agents to go to one URL, humans see the other. The blessed-path approach beats trying to make one URL serve both.SaaS economics are shifting structurally. The build-vs-buy floor is dropping fast as AI lowers the cost of software. Traditional 90%-margin seat-based SaaS is in real trouble. Dev tool companies have upside because companies need more tools. Everyone else is going to be ripping out vendor contracts and building internally.The data-structure paradigm is breaking. Software engineering has operated on the Linus Torvalds principle that data structures matter more than code. LLMs are not built around data structures. Building software around LLMs means rethinking the assumption that drove fifty years of computer science.Notable Quotes"Every product has an agent experience because all of these agents, whether through computer use or through fetching your website or through working around the barriers you put up from them, have some agent experience right now. It is just a question of is it good or bad.""There is a reason it is called a user agent in the header. It was forward-looking.""We have been ripping out SaaS contracts. Sometimes it is heartbreaking. The rep calls to right-size the contract and the customer reacts with 'let me see if I can build it with an agent.' Then they call back and cancel instead.""The context and the flows and your creativity are probably more important than both the data structures and the code."What To Do NextOpen your website in Claude Code or ChatGPT and ask the agent to complete a real task. Watch where it stalls. That is your AX baseline.Check your traffic logs for AI assistant visitors (ChatGPT-User, Claude-Web, PerplexityBot, GPTBot). The number is rising whether you measure it or not. Cloudflare reports AI assistants are now 5.5% of all internet traffic, up from 3.9% six months ago.Read Matt's January 28 2025 essay on Agent Experience at biilmann.blog as the starting point. Then read the one-year retrospective for the four pillars framework.If you operate a developer tool or any product with a clear automation surface, start a simple eval scenario: take a fresh agent, give it a task, score whether it succeeds. Axis from Netlify will give a proper framework when it ships open source.Resources Mentionednetlify.ai (the agent-built entry point Matt and team shipped recently)netlify.com (the human entry point)Matt's original Agent Experience essay, January 28 2025: biilmann.blogMatt's "AI in the CLI: The Humanoid Robot of the Web" (August 2025)Claude Code (the agent that flipped broad accessibility for CLI coding agents)Connect with Matt BiilmannBlog: biilmann.blogLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/mathias-biilmann-christensen-a5a3805Twitter/X: @biilmann (x.com/biilmann)Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:grjr4il5dredrsuj7nosb4pqMastodon: mastodon.social/@biilmannNetlify: netlify.com and netlify.aiConnect with No HacksWebsite: nohacks.coSubscribe to the newsletter: nohacks.co/subscribeMachine-First Architecture: machinefirstarchitecture.comNo Hacks is a podcast about web performance, technical SEO, and the agentic web.

I'm so excited for this week's episode! I'm sitting down with my friend Rachel McGinn, who many of you probably know online as Rachel Joi. Rachel was truly one of the original creators sharing Western fashion online in the early days of Instagram, and in this conversation, we talk about how much life has changed since then.From fashion and content creation to motherhood, ranch life, music, and silversmithing, Rachel shares what it has looked like to evolve through completely different seasons of life while still staying true to herself. We also talk about confidence, identity, creativity, and the reality that sometimes growth means letting go of old versions of yourself in order to step fully into the life you've prayed for.Rachel also shares how she taught herself silversmithing through YouTube and online maker communities after becoming a mom of four, and why continuing to chase your own passions alongside parenthood matters. This episode is an honest conversation about reinvention, perspective, and learning to embrace the season of life you're in rather than constantly looking backward.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with Rachel:Visit her websiteFollow on Instagram @racheljoiConnect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:Episode 21.

Episode 239 of The Hitstreak, a podcast where we talk about anything and everything!  This week we are joined by Financial Architect, Investor, and Founder of Intentional Wealth and NextGen Legacy Group, Justyn Melendez!Episode in a Glance:In this episode of the Hitstreak, I get to talk with financial expert Justyn Melendez, exploring the importance of financial literacy and the role of a financial architect. We discuss the impact of childhood beliefs on money, the transition from physical to mental wealth, and the significance of surrounding oneself with successful individuals. The conversation also touches on the transformative effects of COVID on career choices and the necessity of sharing knowledge and experiences in the financial realm. The episode concludes with a role-playing exercise on financial conversations and a discussion on the true definition of financial freedom.Key Points:- Money is just a tool for good or bad.- Childhood beliefs shape our money mindset.- Understanding tax strategies is essential.- You must unlock the future version of yourself.- Financial professionals often have limited knowledge of broader strategies.- Unconscious spending habits can lead to financial mismanagement.- Building a supportive network can enhance financial success.- Financial freedom is defined by passive income supporting lifestyle expenses.About our guest: Justyn Melendez is a Financial Architect, Investor, and Founder of Intentional Wealth and NextGen Legacy Group, where he designs and deploys strategic wealth systems for individuals and business owners seeking to scale beyond traditional financial limitations. He focuses on capital allocation, investment structuring, and private market opportunities, with an emphasis on assets that generate cash flow, tax efficiency, and long-term equity growth. Through his work, Justyn has been directly involved in structuring and raising capital for high-value investment opportunities, positioning investors to participate in deals typically not accessible to the average individual.

He is also the founder of the Intentional Wealth Mastermind, a community designed for individuals committed to increasing their financial IQ, expanding their network, and building generational wealth through aligned action. Outside of business, Justyn serves as a Sergeant First Class in the United States Army, where his leadership experience reinforces his disciplined approach to execution, risk management, and long-term strategy.

The Bougie Executive Podcast | Episode 2: The Identity Shift That Took Me From $650 to $12,500 Per MonthFor years, I was the bottleneck in my own business. Waking up at 5 AM, working through lunch, answering client emails at midnight, over-delivering on $650 retainers, and making less than my old corporate salary. I kept telling myself it was a hustle problem. It wasn't. It was an identity problem.In this episode of The Bougie Executive Podcast, I'm walking you through the exact mindset shift that took my luxury digital marketing agency from $650 monthly clients to $12,500 monthly retainers in less than 18 months, and I'm being honest about how scared I was the whole time.This is the conversation about money your favorite business coach probably isn't having with you.

In this week's episode, I'm sitting down with Sidney Schmidt, a Superior Livestock Auction representative, to talk about what it really looks like to build a career in cattle marketing from the ground up. Sidney shares his journey from growing up around cattle to working in feedyards and eventually stepping into a role with Superior, where he built his book of business through relationships, trust, and years of industry experience. Superior is one of our Unlimited Hiring partners here at Of The West, and this is exactly the kind of partnership I love because it connects the right people with the right opportunities in our industry.We also dive into the realities of earning trust in the cattle industry, balancing the needs of both buyers and sellers, and why humility and consistency matter more than any sales pitch. From lessons learned the hard way to the importance of long-term relationships and reputation, this conversation is a powerful reminder that in agriculture, people do business with people, and how you show up every day matters. If you've ever been curious about a career with Superior, whether as a rep or working within one of their offices, this episode gives you a real look at what that path can look like.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with Superior Livestock Auction:Visit the websiteFollow on Instagram @superiorlivestockFollow on YouTube @superiorlivestockauctionConnect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:Of The West Unlimited + Concierge Jobs Of The WestWhen a Man's a Man by Harold Bell WrightJoin The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job DescriptionGet our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipGet our FREE resource: 10 Resume Mistakes (and how to fix them)Get our FREE resource: How to Avoid the 7 Biggest Hiring Mistakes Employers MakeEmail us at hello@ofthewest.coSubscribe to Of The West's ⁠NewslettersList your jobs on ⁠Of The WestMentioned in this episode:Click below to see Open Jobs on Of The West Open Jobs on Of The West

In this week's episode, I'm sitting down with Leann Saunders, president of Where Food Comes From. We talk about something that impacts every single one of us in agriculture, whether we realize it or not: third-party verification.Leann has seen the beef industry from every angle, from working on the buyer side with McDonald's to building one of the earliest USDA process verified programs, and now working directly with producers across the country. We break down what verification actually means, why it matters, and how it connects ranchers, consumers, and the entire food supply chain.We also talk about what this looks like from the actual verification process to the financial return, and why this isn't about changing your operation but validating what you're already doing.

We talk about how he built his business completely self-taught, starting with a need to support his roping lifestyle and turning it into one of the most recognizable names in Western jewelry.

The last couple of episodes we covered quadruped and half kneeling. Before either of those positions can work, the system has to be able to manage something with less gravity involved. Side-lying is often that place, and most practitioners are using it without understanding what it actually demands or what it breaks down into when it fails.If your clients complain of a pointy hip, a pinching shoulder, or a knee that will not touch the ground in side-lying, this episode explains exactly what those signals mean and what to do next.We are speaking to the physical therapists, strength coaches, personal trainers, and movement professionals who want a more coherent framework for where to start and why. The ones who have been putting clients in side-lying for years without a clear model for what they are actually looking at.What we cover:What side-lying actually demands from the hip, thorax, and axial skeletonWhy anterior-posterior expansion is the goal and how side-lying creates itThe two compensatory strategies you will see and what each one meansHow to read ground contacts as a real-time assessment of shape accessArchetype-specific behavior: wide ISA versus narrow ISA in this positionThe three-quarter position as a bridge when full side-lying is not accessibleWhere side-lying fits in the full progression toward loaded upright movementLeave a comment: have you ever had a client who could not manage side-lying no matter what you tried?

This week, I'm sitting down with Shelby Clement, and I think this conversation will resonate with so many of you. Shelby built a social media agency from the ground up after walking away from corporate, and we talk about what it actually looks like to chase something bigger that's been placed on your heart. From taking that leap of faith to navigating growth, burnout, and boundaries, she shares the real, unfiltered version of building a business and life that aligns with your purpose.We also get into the realities of social media, how it can either serve you or completely consume you, and the moment Shelby hit a breaking point that changed everything. We talk about health, autoimmune struggles, and how those challenges can actually become part of your purpose. This episode is equal parts motivating and grounding, and a reminder that you get one life, so you might as well go after what you're meant to do.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with Shelby:Follow on Instagram @itsshelbyclementVisit her websiteListen to her podcast, Shelby ClementConnect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:Shop NUUDS Code: SHELBY12969Shelby Clement: Episode 150.

This week I'm sitting down with Andrew Coppin, co-founder and CEO of Ranchbot, to talk about how technology is transforming one of the most fundamental challenges in ranching: water management. Andrew grew up in remote Australia and spent years checking wells, pumps, and pipelines, only to later build a company that eliminates that exact inefficiency. We dive into how Ranchbot is helping producers monitor water systems in real time, reduce unnecessary labor, and make better decisions without constantly driving across their operations.Andrew shares his perspective on the differences between Australian and American ranching, what it takes to build technology producers actually trust, and how simple, reliable tools can completely change the day-to-day reality of running an operation.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with Andrew:Visit RanchbotFollow Ranchbot on Facebook @ranchbottechFollow Ranchbot on Instagram @ranchbotConnect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:RanchbotCattleConJoin The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job DescriptionGet our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipGet our FREE resource: 10 Resume Mistakes (and how to fix them)Get our FREE resource: How to Avoid the 7 Biggest Hiring Mistakes Employers MakeEmail us at hello@ofthewest.coSubscribe to Of The West's ⁠NewslettersList your jobs on ⁠Of The West

You've seen it a hundred times. Someone gets into quadruped and immediately their back rounds, their pelvis tucks, their neck drops. You cue them, it gets a little better, and two reps later it's back. There's a reason.In this episode of RECONSIDER with Bill Hartman, we take a closer look at what the quadruped position actually demands, why so many people can't access it, and what those compensations are really telling you about the system.If your bird dogs look sloppy, your clients sag toward the ground, tuck their pelvis, or twist through their spine, this episode explains the mechanism behind every one of those breakdowns.We're speaking to the physical therapists, strength coaches, personal trainers, and movement professionals who find themselves wondering why certain clients plateau no matter what program they're on. The ones who lay awake thinking about the 25-30% that aren't responding. There's a reason, and it's more coherent than you might expect.What we cover:What quadruped actually demands from the axial skeleton, hips, and shouldersThe two types of IR compensation you'll see and what each one meansHow gravity changes everything in this position and how to read the downforceHow to modify quadruped strategically without just reducing the demand to nothingThe direct connection between quadruped access and squatting, jumping, sprinting, and single-leg RDL performanceWhy a clean bird dog is the gateway to single-limb loadingHow soft tissue work, rolling, and shape change earn the positionSingle-leg RDL compensations that trace directly back to quadruped deficitsLeave a comment: what's the one thing that always tripped you up with your clients before learning about this model?Timestamps:0:00 What is quadruped and why it's misunderstood1:40 What quadruped is best used for mechanically3:08 Prerequisites, earning the position4:04 The IR demand most people don't have6:36 Gravity's role, top-down vs ground-up IR8:03 How to assess if someone qualifies9:19 Modifying the position strategically11:22 The real utility, midline control13:28 Alternatives, half kneeling, side lying, rolling14:48 Connection to propulsion and real-world movement 16:42 Why bird dogs fail18:11 Single-leg RDL, same breakdowns standing up22:01 When making someone look like the picture becomes the problem27:05 Building the progression strategically30:13 Who this podcast is really forLearn the UHPC Model, free courses and articles: https://uhp.network UHP Plus mentorship with Bill: https://uhp.network Train with Bill, RECON app: https://www.reconu.coSubscribe and follow: https://www.youtube.com/@BillHartmanPT https://www.instagram.com/bill_hartman_pt/ https://billhartmanpt.com/#quadruped #birddogs #physicaltherapy #UHPC #billhartman #internalrotation #movementassessment #strengthandconditioning #rehab #reconsiderpodcast #singlelegrdl #midlinecontrol #UHPnetwork #exerciseprogramming #corrective

In this final episode of Mentor March, I'm doing something a little different. Instead of bringing on another guest, I'm diving into a topic that completely shifted my perspective after seeing that 67% of you said you don't currently have a mentor. So today, I'm breaking down how to actually build your own “board of directors” and why mentorship doesn't have to look formal to be impactful. From people already in your life to those you follow online, I share real, practical ways to start building those relationships.I cover everything from getting in the right rooms and learning through proximity to engaging with people you admire online and investing in mentorship when it makes sense. I also share why peer mentorship is often overlooked but incredibly powerful.

You've sat across from someone who eats two bites of dessert, puts the fork down, and moves on — no guilt, no quiet negotiation, no 'I'll start again Monday.' And part of you has always assumed they're just built differently.They're not. Their software is different. And in this episode, we break down exactly what's running in that calm eater's brain — seven specific mental traits — and why every one of them is a configuration you can change, not a personality you either have or don't.This is the episode that names the quietest lie the diet industry tells: that how you relate to food is fixed. It isn't. And once you see that clearly, the whole game shifts.WHAT WE COVERThe Personality Myth — the lie that calm eaters are born, not madeWhy the noise around food is an identity problem, not a food problemThe Identity Thermostat — and why fighting the temperature never worksAll 7 mental traits, with the contrast between the hijacked brain and the rewired oneWhy Trait 7 (identity leads the behavior) is the master trait everything else flows fromTHE 7 TRAITS1. Food is neutral — no verdict attached, just fuel and pleasure2. The pause before the pull — observation over reaction3. Hunger as signal, not emergency — data, not a five-alarm fire4. No cleanup eating — food isn't a therapist5. Satisfaction as a real stop signal — eating only for what food can give6. Tomorrow has nothing to do with today — no cascades, no all-or-nothing logic7. Identity leads the behavior — the master trait. The dial that runs the room.KEY CONCEPT"Calm eaters aren't fighting the temperature every day. Their thermostat is set to a different default. When the shift happens, these traits stop requiring discipline. They become how you operate."MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODEEscape the Willpower Trap — the course where we install these traits module by module, identity shift by identity shift.

Give First and Win Bigger: How Great Partnerships Start with Generosity, Not NegotiationGuest: Stan Valo, Founder of eDots Host: Julie RigaOverviewWhat if the key to business growth wasn't in closing deals, but in giving first? In this episode of Stay On Course, Julie Riga sits down with Stan Valo, founder of eDots and a 21-year e-commerce veteran, to explore a transformational mindset shift. Stan unpacks his three-ingredient recipe for partnership success that helped him build a purpose-driven business where the yeses come easily, clients become true collaborators, and value flows in every direction. Whether you are a solopreneur, executive, or founder, this episode is a masterclass in intentional relationship-building, strategic growth, and legacy-driven leadership.Give First and Win Bigger: How Great Partnerships Start with Generosity, Not NegotiationAbout Stan ValoStan Valo is the founder of eDots, an e-commerce growth engine that helps brands, manufacturers, and distributors scale across new online marketplaces and sales channels. With over 21 years in the industry, Stan developed a performance-only partnership model that blends agency services with distribution expertise. His philosophy, "I don't sell, I solve," reflects his commitment to authentic leadership, purpose-driven business, and building lasting professional relationships.Fun Fact: Stan's favorite food is his grandmother's stuffed peppers with sour cream, a cherished recipe from her home country of Moldova.Stan's Three-Ingredient Recipe for Partnership Success1. Go First: Give Unconditionally In negotiation, the one who speaks first loses. In partnerships, the one who gives first wins. Lead every new relationship with introductions and referrals, no strings attached. Ask "who can I help you meet?" and watch generosity build the foundation of lasting trust.2. Be a Solver: Solve Something Meaningful Stan's core mantra is simple: don't sell, solve. Focus on real problems rather than closing transactions. When you solve meaningfully, value overflows and the relationship deepens naturally. The best leaders are solvers who match people with exactly what they need.3. Create Undeniable Value for Both Sides Value must flow in both directions for a partnership to last. Choose your partners wisely, start light, and let the relationship evolve before committing deeper. Think of it like dating before marriage: coffee first, then friends, then family. Integrity is everything.Memorable Quotes"In a negotiation, the one that talks first loses. In partnerships, the one that goes first wins.""I don't sell, I solve. I've never had to negotiate a single deal.""It's hard to get a no when you're offering so much.""I don't have a contact form. I have an application form. That changes the dynamic."Key Takeaways for LeadersGive Before You Ask - Lead with generosity. Start with a gift of value: an introduction, a connection, or an insight. Trust and opportunity follow naturally.Shift from Selling to Solving - The most powerful transformation in business is moving from transaction to contribution. Solve real problems and the yeses follow.Build Relationships, Not Contracts - Start light, prove your value, and let partnership depth grow organically over time.Stay Narrow and Know Your Strengths - Clarity of focus amplifies impact. Build a power team of trusted partners who complement your core strengths.Integrity Is Your Growth Engine - Authentic connection without an agenda is the ultimate long-game strategy and the foundation of lasting legacy.Connect with Stan ValoWebsite: edots.coSubscribe to Stay On CourseSubscribe wherever you listen to podcasts and share with leaders ready to stop selling and start solving.#StayOnCourse #GiveFirst #PurposeDrivenLeadership #PartnershipMindset #AuthenticGrowth

I am so excited for this episode and an announcement! This week, we are kicking off something new called Mentor March. Over the next four weeks, I'll be bringing you conversations with people who have personally mentored me in different areas of my life, from business and agriculture to marriage, leadership, and entrepreneurship. These are the people who have shaped how I think, how I lead, and how I build.In this episode, I share why mentorship matters so much and why it is not just for entrepreneurs or corporate leaders. We all need a board of directors in our lives. People who have walked the path ahead of us and are willing to tell us the truth. If most of what you have learned has come from other people, imagine what could change if you became intentional about who those people are. Mentor March starts next week, and I cannot wait for you to meet the mentors.

Have you ever tried to justify your anger?In this message from the Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Aaron Pennington walks through Matthew 5 and Jesus' teaching on anger, reconciliation, and what grows in our hearts.Jesus makes it clear that God is not only concerned with outward actions but what we allow to take root inside of us. Anger, bitterness, resentment, and unforgiveness do not stay hidden. What fills the heart eventually comes out through our words and actions.This message explores:• What Jesus really meant in Matthew 5:21–26• The difference between righteous anger and sinful anger• How unresolved anger damages relationships• Why forgiveness is central to the Gospel• Practical steps to uproot bitterness before it growsIf you have ever struggled with anger, rage, resentment, or unresolved hurt, this message is for you.Join us as we continue our Sermon on the Mount series and learn how to live as salt and light in a world that desperately needs grace.

In this powerful and honest message, Pastor Aaron Pennington, Lead Pastor of Trace Church in Colorado Springs, addresses one of the most pervasive and destructive struggles facing Christians today. Pornography and sexual sin are not just private battles. They are poisons that weaken the soul, damage relationships, and pull us away from the transformed life Jesus offers.As part of the Uprooted sermon series, Pastor Aaron calls us to stop managing sin and start uprooting it. With truth, grace, Scripture, and practical wisdom, this sermon confronts shame, exposes lies, and points toward real freedom found in Christ.This message is for anyone who feels stuck in cycles of temptation, guilt, secrecy, or spiritual numbness. Whether you are struggling personally or seeking clarity on how faith speaks into modern challenges, this teaching offers hope, conviction, and a clear path forward.Key themes in this sermon:• Why pornography promises pleasure but produces slavery• The spiritual and neurological impact of sexual sin• Why silence allows strongholds to grow• How Jesus offers freedom, healing, and renewal• What it means to uproot sin instead of excusing itAt Trace Church, we believe in truth and grace together. No condemnation, but no compromise. Freedom is possible, and transformation is available through Jesus.Join us in Colorado Springs or watch online as we continue the Uprooted series and ask the honest question:What needs to be uprooted from your life so you can live fully free in Christ?Service Times at Trace Church:8:15a | 10:00a | 11:45a | 5:00p4330 Mark Dabling Blvd, Colorado Springs, COSubscribe for more sermons, sermon clips, and teaching from Pastor Aaron Pennington and Trace Church.

Send us a textWhat makes a Christmas tradition stick—the flavor, the place, or the story you tell about it? We gathered five friends from across the map to trade brutally honest eggnog takes, map out Christmas Eve and Day rituals, and argue for the movies that still make us feel like kids. From beach fires in North Carolina to church services and the Feast of the Seven Fishes, the thread running through it all is simple: small moments, strong memories.We dive into the comfort classics—Chevy Chase's Christmas Vacation, the original cartoon Grinch, both Home Alones, Polar Express, and the underappreciated Charlie Brown specials—and shout out favorite characters like Buddy the Elf, Ralphie, Yukon Cornelius, and the Heat Miser vs. Snow Miser duo. Then we hop towns to find real places that look like movie sets: Chagrin Falls and Hudson in Ohio, Carmel's rink and German market in Indiana, Sugarcreek's Amish charm, and West Virginia's Berkeley Springs with its storybook main street. If you're building a holiday road trip, we've got a ready-made list: Oglebay Festival of Lights, Pittsburgh's PPG Place rink and the Point, Cleveland's Zoo Lights, downtown Willoughby's Light Up Night, and the A Christmas Story House.Food gets personal fast. Ham and scalloped potatoes, beef tenderloin, and an avalanche of Christmas cookies take center stage, with regional favorites like Sarris chocolate adding bite. We also take on the live-sports-on-Christmas question (most of us say stay home unless it's a great NBA matchup) and rank gifts—dinner out tops the list, edging gift cards, with candy a distant third. The why is clear: shared experiences beat stuff when the goal is connection.If you're craving ideas for holiday fun, movie nostalgia, or new traditions that actually fit your life, this coSubscribe for exclusive content: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1530455/support Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREETactical BrotherhoodThe Tactical Brotherhood is a movement to support America.Dubby EnergyFROM GAMERS TO GYM JUNKIES TO ENTREPRENEURS, OUR PRODUCT IS FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BE BETTER.ShankitgolfOur goal here at Shankitgolf is for everyone to have a great time on and off the golf courseSweet Hands SportsElevate your game with Sweet Hands Sports!

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Arden Cartrette is joined by psychologist and award-winning author Jessica Zucker to discuss her new book, Normalize It: Upending the Silence, Stigma, and Shame That Shape Women's Lives. Known for her groundbreaking work and viral movement I Had a Miscarriage, Jessica shares the story behind her 16-week pregnancy loss and how it transformed her personal and professional life.Together, Arden and Jessica explore the many layers of womanhood that are too often silenced—grief, periods, reproductive health, friendships, sexual assault, and more. They talk about the emotional complexity of these experiences and the societal pressure to "move on" quietly. This conversation is a call to action: to remove shame, embrace vulnerability, and normalize the full range of emotions that come with being human.Jessica offers her therapist's insight, personal experiences, and compassionate advocacy, reminding listeners that their stories matter—and that healing begins with speaking out.Topics Discussed:The story behind I Had a MiscarriageWriting Normalize It and the process of telling hard storiesGrief and pregnancy loss at 16 weeksThe cultural stigma surrounding miscarriage and menstruationThe importance of vulnerability and storytellingNavigating family dynamics and identity after lossCreating space for emotional healing and self-advocacyHow support groups foster community and connectionConnect with Jessica Zucker:Instagram: @ihadamiscarriageFollow Arden & Miscarriage Stories:Instagram: @themiscarriagedoulaWebsite: https://www.themiscarriagedoula.coSubscribe to the Miscarriage Stories podcast wherever you listen.Keywords: Miscarriage, Women's Health, Mental Health, Grief, Reproductive Health, Shame, Stigma, Identity, Vulnerability, Support Groups, Storytelling, Self-Advocacy
