In this solo episode, Darin reframes one of the most misunderstood forces in life — stress. Instead of seeing it as the enemy, he explores how stress is actually a messenger, guiding you back to alignment, safety, and awareness. Through science, spirituality, and lived experience, Darin breaks down how stress shows us where we're trying to control, where we're disconnected, and where our nervous system is calling for attention. He unpacks the layers of modern stress — from trauma and environment to community and purpose — and offers practical, embodied tools to restore calm, clarity, and resilience.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian and Jewish world reporter Zev Stub join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. In an indication of the uptick of events along Israel’s northern border, IDF troops conducted an overnight raid in southern Lebanon and destroyed several buildings that were being used by Hezbollah, the military says. This is the second ground operation inside Lebanon in the past several days, conducted outside of the five points Israel now holds inside its neighbor. We learn about the IDF's outlook for a stepped-up conflict. Upon assuming office, Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir appointed a panel of former senior military officers to conduct an external investigation into the series of the IDF's internal probes in its failures on and ahead of Hamas’s October 7, 2023, terror onslaught. Fabian explores the new panel's findings and where the IDF needs to fill in holes. Itai Ofir will become the military advocate general later this month after Defense Minister Israel Katz ratified his appointment Sunday. He will succeed Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, who resigned and admitted to authorizing the leak of the Sde Teiman detainee abuse video. Fabian describes an unusual rank jump that Ofir will need to be given to assume the role. After a dramatic negotiation process with several surprise turns, the next leadership of the World Zionist Organization has been selected. Just ahead of recording, Stub learned that Rabbi Doron Perez, chairman of the religious Zionist World Mizrachi movement and father of Cpt. Daniel Perez, who was killed in the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack, will split the five-year term with the incumbent chairman of the WZO, Yaakov Hagoel. Last week, Yad Vashem, Israel’s World Holocaust Remembrance Center, said that it has recovered the names of five million Jews murdered in the Holocaust, a milestone it called “historic” in its decades-long mission to restore the identities of the six million Jews murdered by the Nazis.As part of its mission to mark every one of those six million as an individual, the museum wing has opened a new exhibit with deeply personal affects. Stub was at the new exhibit and reports back. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Ever told yourself, “I'll get back on track after the holidays”?You're not alone - but that “short break” from your workouts can actually set you back in ways you don't expect.In this episode, Casey breaks down why pressing pause on your fitness routine during the holidays almost always backfires - and what to do instead to stay consistent, confident, and in control through the busiest season of the year.You'll learn:
In this episode, Casey sits down with Tina Haupert - Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), Certified Nutrition Coach, and founder of Carrots ‘N' Cake - to talk about one of the most important (and overlooked) topics for women using GLP-1 medications: how to protect your muscle, metabolism, and long-term health.They dive into:Why strength training is non-negotiable when appetite is low or fat loss is rapidHow to hit your protein goals when eating lessThe red flags that signal muscle loss instead of fat lossBeginner-friendly ways to start lifting safely and confidentlyHow to pair medication with lifestyle habits to maintain results long after you stop using itIf you're a woman in your 40s, 50s, or beyond - whether you're currently using a GLP-1, considering it, or just curious - this episode will help you understand the bigger picture of strength, bone health, and sustainable success.Connect with Tina Haupert on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/carrotsncake/Today's conversation is not medical advice or an endorsement for or against medications -we're here to talk about the role strength training plays in maintaining muscle, metabolism, and health if someone is using these tools.Join us in the Inspire Fitness program: Use the link here: https://inspirehw.com/ Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fit.nutritionist?igsh=MTJqZXhjODR2ZzduaA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr Follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Casey.Young.RD.CPT?mibextid=LQQJ4d
Send us a textThere's a CPT code out there that's worth about $16 to $20 per visit… and most of you are ignoring it. It's been right in front of us, since early 2024, and yet week after week, we watch practices leave thousands—sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars—on the table.The code is G2211. And if you haven't heard of it—or haven't trained your teams to take it seriously—you're not just missing a code. You're missing a mindset shift. Today, we're going to unpack what G2211 is, how it works, why practices routinely miss it, and what it means to treat coding as a strategy—something that drives margin, drives sustainability, and frankly, keeps your medical group from running harder for less money.But, this episode isn't just about one code. It's about a bigger conversation—one that flips the traditional narrative around coding. Because for too long, we've taught physicians and administrators that coding is all about compliance. Just don't get audited. Just stay safe. Just do the minimum. But what if that mindset is costing us millions? What if playing it so safe is actually making your group financially vulnerable?So let's flip the script. Let's talk about compliance as the floor—not the ceiling. Let's talk about coding for opportunity. Let's talk about G2211 as an example, and why it's your new best friend. Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

Welcome to “Is Ambient Listening Right for You?” Or, in the alternative, “Free AI Tools and Other Expensive Mistakes.”Nick van Terheyden, MD, the special guest during the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesdays, says he has seen enough of artificial intelligence (AI) “helpers” turn doctors into unpaid editors and part-time exorcists for hallucinating software.“Clinicians signed up to heal humans, not debug bots,” Dr. Nick said. “Yet here we are, creating ‘AI slop' so thick it needs its own billing code.”Dr. Nick also references a Harvard study that says your coworkers think using AI makes you less competent; meanwhile, MIT says you're probably not getting a dime's worth of value. But don't worry, you're getting your AI tool for free! Which, like the “free drinks” at an all-inclusive resort, often tastes mostly like disappointment.Finally, Dr. Nick offers this parting shot: “Remember: your medical records can't be ‘vibe-coded' clean. And while lawyers blame the AI for their made-up filings, you don't get that luxury. Choose your AI tool wisely, because ‘no hallucinations added' shouldn't have to be in your note.”The broadcast will also feature these instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, Senior Director of Clinical Policy and Education for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest CDI updates.Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.The Coding Report: Christine Geiger, Assistant Vice President of Acute and Post-Acute Coding Services for First Class Solutions, will report on the latest coding news.News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.
The holidays are coming, and while most people are slipping into “I'll start again in January” mode, you're doing it differently this year.

The Psychology of Self-Injury: Exploring Self-Harm & Mental Health
In this episode, Dr. Rachel Zelkowitz defines trauma and its prevalence among individuals who self-injure, delineates posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from complex PTSD (C-PTSD), and discusses common treatments for addressing trauma, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Prolonged Exposure (PE). With interest in treating military veterans and active duty service members, Dr. Zelkowitz provides insights into nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI), self-harm, and trauma among military members.Learn more about Dr. Zelkowitz and her work here, and learn more about common treatments for trauma at the National Center for PTSD at www.ptsd.va.gov.

Halloween isn't just candy and costumes- it's the gateway to the most challenging two months of the year for your fitness and nutrition goals.For so many women, this is the time when routines start slipping… workouts get skipped… and that little voice says, “I'll get back on track in January.”But what if this year was different?In today's episode, Casey talks about how to navigate the next 60 days without losing progress (or your sanity). You'll learn why the “all-or-nothing” mindset is the biggest holiday trap, and how small, consistent actions can keep you feeling strong, confident, and in control all season long.Join us in the Inspire Fitness program: Use the link here: https://inspirehw.com/ Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fit.nutritionist?igsh=MTJqZXhjODR2ZzduaA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr Follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Casey.Young.RD.CPT?mibextid=LQQJ4d
Last month, the "Billing Boys"—Chris Jones and Phil Rodgers—joined the GeriPal podcast to demystify medical billing and coding in palliative care. This month, we're back with part two, shifting the focus to geriatrics. While billing and coding may not be the most exciting topic, they're essential for ensuring fair reimbursement for the complex care we provide and for supporting the work of our interprofessional teams, many of whom can't bill directly for their services. When we underbill or leave money on the table, we not only shortchange ourselves but also devalue the critical role of geriatrics in the healthcare system. This time, we're joined by experts Peter Hollmann, Ken Koncilja, and Audrey Chun to dive into key questions: Why does billing matter, and who does it benefit? What's the difference between CPT, E&M, and ICD-10 codes (if you need a refresher, check out our chat with the Billing Boys here)? We explore how to think about billing for complexity versus time, and unpack new and impactful codes like the Cognitive Assessment and Care Plan Services code (99483), advance care planning (ACP) billing codes, and G2211, which acknowledges the added work of managing patients with chronic conditions. We also highlight the new APCM G-codes for 2025, a set of HCPCS codes that could provide substantial financial support for interdisciplinary teams in geriatrics. Finally, we discuss the advocacy behind these codes. The American Geriatrics Society (AGS) plays a vital role on the AMA's RUC committee, helping to improve reimbursement for the complex care of older adults. Tune in to this week's GeriPal podcast for expert advice, practical strategies, and insights that will help you optimize your billing practices and sustain the future of geriatrics! Here are some of the resources we also talked about: The physician fee schedule look up tool Wwere you can find out CMS expected charge based off where you practice AGS's annual coding update Geriatrics at Your Fingertips, which has a one-pager on billing Medicare Claims Processing Manual
Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Struggling to turn dense textbook prep into real coaching skill? We open the door to a smarter path—one that helps you pass your CPT and step onto the floor with confidence. Ashley leads a clear, practical tour through the Overhead Squat Assessment, the must‑know overactive and underactive muscle pairs, and the exact high‑yield topics NASM loves to test. You'll hear how to replace fear‑based posture rules with strong, simple cues that make clients feel capable and safe, and how the OPT model fits into real training without turning every session into rehab.We share the muscle map you need at test time and in the gym: mid to lower traps, glutes, VMO, TVA, and deep cervical flexors on the underactive side; lats, adductors, hip flexors, upper traps, and the gastroc‑soleus complex on the overactive side. Then we apply it to common compensations like knee valgus and arms falling forward so you can instantly connect what you see to what you program. You'll get the exact OHS setup, the five checkpoints, and why shoes‑off, multiple views, and consistent reps matter for clean reads.Ashley also lays out a streamlined study system: flashcards that pair each muscle with its tendency, process‑of‑elimination test tactics, and acronym mastery like LPHC to dodge trick questions. We talk realistic use of SMR and the 4‑2‑1 tempo, when stabilization is useful, and where progressive overload leads the way. Beyond the exam, we cover building a referral team with a registered dietitian and physical therapist so you can stay within scope, deliver faster results, and create new income streams while serving clients better.Ready to pass with less stress and coach with more clarity?

For more than a decade, few athletes have been as ubiquitous in Canadian athletics as Charles Philibert-Thiboutot. From a legendary university career at Université Laval that saw him help turn the Rouge et Or into the powerhouse they remain today, Charles quickly rose through the ranks on the elite scene, chalking up podium performances, national records, and championship titles on the roads, track, and cross country course while becoming a mainstay of Canadian national teams from Brazil to Budapest, Santiago to Tokyo.While his approachability has made him a favourite of both fans and competitors alike for years, it has been his remarkable versatility as an athlete across a variety of different surfaces and distances that has made his staying power in the sport so unique. And while Charles has made himself equally at home in a diamond league 1500m as he is in a muddy cross country 10k, there's still one event that remains as the final line item on a career bucket list that seems to stretch on forever, the mighty marathon. Now, the wait is finally over and the man they call CPT will take to the streets of NYC to tackle the TCS New York City marathon this Sunday, November 2nd, hoping to put an exclamation point on the final chapter of a career that will go down as one of the greats in Canadian distance running history.

Together, they explore the connection between a pastor's inner life and the ministry of preaching. Samra reflects on the church as a “pillar” and “conduit” between heaven and earth, emphasizing how a preacher's holiness and attentiveness to God enable this connection. He shares practical rhythms of prayer, fasting, accountability, and sermon preparation rooted in dependence on the Holy Spirit. The conversation also delves into his understanding of prophecy, hearing God's voice, and cultivating a congregation that listens for divine guidance. In closing, Samra discusses the importance of “cleaning up contaminated land” within the church—acknowledging past wounds and cultural sins so that the body of Christ can truly embody healing and holiness in its community and witness.Living Church - Awe and Presence

With the annual trend of fluctuating reimbursement rates, have you been on the fence about turning your OBL into an ASC? Make sure your OBL is prepared for the surprising changes in coding coming in 2026. In this episode, Dr. Mary Costantino partners with fellow OBL owner Dr. Goke Akinwande and revenue cycle management expert Laurie Bouzarelos to review the new CPT code changes and how they translate to OBL and ASC reimbursement.---SYNPOSISDr. Akinwande discusses many positive takeaways after diving into the recent Medicare documents, and highlights key shifts. He believes these changes to add-on codes and territories means one thing: CLI is being heard. The upcoming code changes improve delineation of vascular territories, differentiating between "simple" (stenosis) and "complex" (CTO) procedures. These changes are aimed at rewarding physicians performing the difficult CLI work while decreasing reimbursement for more straightforward cases.Beyond the CPT code specifics, the conversation also covers real-world implications for OBL owners. Dr. Akinwande explains why these changes might narrow the reimbursement gap between OBLs and ASCs, prompting him to warn against ASC conversion. Laurie Bouzarelos provides guidance on implementation, stressing the importance of updating charge masters, reviewing payer contracts for "gap fill" clauses, and monitoring payments once the new codes go live. The episode ends with a discussion on obstacles in billing, collections, and the need for physicians to master the business side of their practice to ensure financial success.---TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction04:37 - 2026 CPT Changes Overview07:18 - Simple vs. Complex Codes13:16 - Key Add-on Codes19:52 - OBL vs. ASC Conversion?24:56 - IVL Reimbursement Trends29:18 - Update Your Charge Master41:41 - Pricing & Medicare Year46:39 - Billing & Collections Reality
H.R. 1, known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), is set to reshape hospital finances by cutting an estimated $840 billion from Medicaid and Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) funding. As hospitals absorb these losses, many are tightening budgets, reducing staff, and facing renewed labor tensions.For the first time, clinical documentation integrity (CDI) teams are part of this unionized landscape, connecting frontline workforce issues directly to reimbursement and data accuracy. When strikes or slowdowns occur, they can disrupt queries, coding, and claims, creating both financial and compliance risks. Together, these forces reveal how economic and workforce realities are now intertwined across every level of healthcare.Reporting the lead story during the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesdays, the popular Internet broadcast produced by ICD10monitor, will be Penny Jefferson, CDI Manager for UC Davis Health.The broadcast will also feature these instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, Senior Director of Clinical Policy and Education for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest CDI updates.Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.The Coding Report: Christine Geiger, Assistant Vice President of Acute and Post-Acute Coding Services for First Class Solutions, will report on the latest coding news.News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.
In this episode, we sit down with Steven Coen, founder of SaRa Health, to unpack how outpatient rehab can actually use RTM to boost both patient engagement and clinic revenue—without drowning in extra admin work. Steven cuts through the noise around RTM, debunking the biggest misconceptions and showing what these new CPT codes can (and can't) do for your practice. We talk barriers, best practices, and how smarter tech integration can help you stay connected to patients long after they've left the clinic. If you've ever wondered whether RTM is worth your time—or how it fits into a fitness-forward, outcomes-driven model—this episode will help you see the opportunity clearly.

Have you been told that Medicare and Medicare Advantage (MA) patients who have difficulties with activities of daily living (ADLs) are appropriate for inpatient status if their hospital stay crosses a second midnight? What direction have you received about “discharge effectuation?” Are your physicians keen on placing the majority of their patients into inpatient status because they want to prevent delivery of an expensive hospital bill? During the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesdays, Dr. Juliet Ugarte Hopkins, the Chief Medical Officer for Phoenix Medical Management, will report on issues that have captured her interest as she discusses these, and other hot topics of misdirection and misinformation often encountered in the healthcare landscape.The popular broadcast will also feature these instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, Senior Director of Clinical Policy and Education for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest clinical documentation integrity (CDI) updates.Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.The Coding Report: Christine Geiger, Assistant Vice President of Acute and Post-Acute Coding Services for First Class Solutions, will report on the latest coding news.News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.
We all have that one thing we've been putting off - the email we need to send, the workout we keep skipping, or the meal prep we said we'd start “tomorrow.” In this episode, Casey shares a personal story about finally tackling a task she'd been avoiding for weeks - and how it instantly created momentum, energy, and clarity for the rest of her day.You'll learn how the “Eat the Frog” mentality applies directly to your fitness and health goals, especially if you find yourself stuck in the cycle of procrastination. Casey breaks down how doing the hard thing first builds confidence, consistency, and unstoppable momentum.If you've been waiting for the “right time” to start, this episode will remind you that action - not motivation - is what gets you moving.
This week, I'm getting personal. Back in January, I made a commitment to get outside for a walk every single day in the month of January- even through Michigan's cold, dark and generally unenjoyable winter. What started as a month long challenge quickly turned into an almost year long habit… and eventually, part of my identity.In this episode, I'm sharing what I've learned about discipline, discomfort, and how real change happens - not overnight, but through small, consistent actions that reshape who we become.Whether you're working on your fitness, nutrition, or mindset, this one will remind you that the hardest part is starting -but the most rewarding part is who you become when you keep going.Join us in the Inspire Fitness program: Use the link here: https://inspirehw.com/ Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fit.nutritionist?igsh=MTJqZXhjODR2ZzduaA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr Follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Casey.Young.RD.CPT?mibextid=LQQJ4d

Why is it so hard to rest - even when we know we need it?In this episode, Casey gets real about the struggle so many women over 40 face when it comes to slowing down. We've been conditioned to go, do, and achieve - but in fitness (and in life), constant motion without recovery can stall progress, increase fatigue, and mess with our hormones.As the Inspire Fitness community moves into Deload Week, Casey explains why lighter weights, fewer reps, and lower intensity aren't setbacks - they're strategic tools for long-term strength, energy, and results.If rest makes you feel restless, this episode will help you reframe it as the most powerful part of your training plan. Because sometimes, doing less is exactly what helps you come back stronger.
Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Most trainers don't fail for lack of passion; they fail because no one showed them how to turn knowledge into coached reps and coached reps into confident sales. We walk straight through the credential maze—C-tier certs like NASM/ACE/ISSA, nonprofit mainstays NSCA/ACSM, the CSCS and kinesiology degrees, and why applied internships and mentorships sit at the top when it comes to getting hired and keeping clients safe.We share the hard numbers managers see on the floor, the real reasons accreditation doesn't equal readiness, and the practical skills that move the needle: assessments that drive programming, modifications for common injuries, communication that calms nerves, and simple, ethical closing frameworks that make pricing feel natural. You'll hear how case-based learning (think: “Pickleball Pete” with lateral elbow pain) builds pattern recognition fast, why unsupervised “experience” can cement bad habits, and how structured supervision turns you into the coach clients trust with complex goals and limitations.If you're sitting on a C-tier cert right now, we outline an honest path: pass quickly, get floor time, stack hands-on seminars, and document real outcomes. If you're targeting elite clubs like Equinox or Lifetime, we show exactly what hiring managers look for—competence, composure, and a clear system for assessment and progression. Along the way, we unpack who actually owns the big cert brands, how marketing shapes perception, and why the best question isn't “Is it accredited?” but “Will this help me coach a real human on Monday?”Ready to build a career, not just collect acronyms?

This episode tackles the often-overlooked but critical topic of medical device reimbursement. Host Etienne Nichols speaks with Haley King, co-founder and CEO of Paxos Health, about why this process is just as vital as FDA approval for a device's commercial success. They explore the journey a medical device takes, highlighting the distinction between FDA approval and securing reimbursement from payers.Haley explains the three key pillars of reimbursement: coding, coverage, and payment. She delves into the complexities of CPT codes and the significant difference between a temporary Category 3 code and the gold-standard Category 1. The discussion also covers the immense challenges medical device companies face, including the lengthy timeline—sometimes years—to secure payer coverage, which can be a make-or-break factor for startups. The conversation wraps up with a look at how artificial intelligence is beginning to streamline the cumbersome, manual process of patient access and appeals.Key Timestamps1:45 - The initial challenge of making coverage match medical need.3:30 - The three-part reimbursement pathway: coding, coverage, and payment.5:50 - Navigating CPT codes and the difference between Category 1 and Category 3.10:15 - Common challenges for medical device companies seeking payer coverage.13:20 - The multi-year timeline to achieve Medicare coverage for innovative devices.15:00 - Advice for regulatory and quality professionals on speeding up reimbursement.20:10 - How AI is currently being used in patient access and reimbursement.24:45 - Debating the accuracy of AI and its role in replacing human expertise.Quotes"A lot of times patients are not going to be able to pay out of pocket for expensive medical treatments, and a lot of times providers are not going to be able to write off those treatments on their side. So somebody needs to pay for this. And that's usually the health insurance companies..." — Haley King"I think that for this sort of a use case [AI], you're always going to want some human in the loop... AI has the potential to be super, super powerful in this space, but I think you're always going to want to have human experts involved." — Haley KingTakeawaysIntegrate reimbursement strategy early: Unlike FDA approval, which focuses on safety and efficacy, payers also demand evidence of a device's clinical and economic value. Medical device companies, particularly startups, should integrate reimbursement planning into their pitch decks and product development timelines from the outset.Recognize the two-step process: FDA approval is not a golden ticket to reimbursement. Companies must understand the subsequent and often lengthy process of securing coding, coverage, and payment from payers like CMS and private insurance companies, which can take several years.Enhance clinical trials for payers: Regulatory and quality professionals can speed up the reimbursement process by designing clinical trials that not only meet FDA requirements but also generate robust data to prove a device's clinical and economic value. This may involve including additional endpoints to justify the cost.Harness AI for efficiency, not replacement: AI is a powerful tool for automating the tedious parts of reimbursement, such as sifting through patient records and payer policies. However, it should be viewed as a way to enhance, not replace, the work of human experts who can handle complex edge cases and appeals.Be aware of coding complexities: The distinction...

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Down 21–7 in the fourth? That's how most trainers feel when goals are vague, leads are random, and revenue wobbles. We flip that script with a practical playbook: define KPIs, run 90-day sprints, test weekly like an athlete, and hold public accountability so momentum has nowhere to hide. Think sports strategy meets small-business execution—clear metrics, tactical pivots, and simple scripts you can use today.We walk through a SWIFT-style review cadence that turns reflection into action: strengths to double down on, weaknesses you block time to fix, and the improvements, implementations, and innovations that compound results. You'll hear how to build a full book without waiting on algorithms—client appreciation invites that spark referrals, storefront intros that plant local roots, and discovery calls that convert because the questions are better. We even dig into pricing with confidence: tie rate increases to skill upgrades, invite clients to sponsor your growth, and communicate the plan with candor and care.There's a reason great coaches obsess over numbers. We break down the KPIs that matter for trainers—leads per week, show-up and close rates, ARPC, content-to-call conversion—and show how to read them like a dugout watches pitch counts. You'll leave with a 90-day roadmap: daily story prompts with polls, a DM follow-up system, a weekly beta test, and a review cycle that makes iteration inevitable.

“Metabolism” refers to the thousands of chemical reactions required for our bodies to function. It is highly complex — and it's about so much more than simply being “fast” or “slow.” Although there is no single age when shifts in metabolism start to happen, the natural effects of aging do lead to changes that require us to consider different ways of supporting a healthy metabolism. Many people notice this swing in their 40s and 50s. In this episode, Samantha McKinney, RD, CPT, explains the shifts in metabolism that can happen and why, as well as the ways we can support an optimal metabolism. There are steps you can take to make a difference no matter your age — whether you're starting in your 40s or 50s, or in the years before or after them.

Coach Mads shares her extraordinary journey from battling anorexia as a teenager to becoming a successful gym owner with a thriving boutique fitness business.The path wasn't straightforward. After getting her ISSA certification during COVID when gyms were shuttered, Mads discovered the stark gap between textbook knowledge and real-world application. "You get into the real-life gym and you're like, what the heck am I doing? I don't know how to apply this at all," she reveals with refreshing honesty. This experience shaped her determination to create something better.Moving 2,000 miles from Canada to Washington, Mads worked briefly at the YMCA before taking a leap that most trainers wait years to attempt – opening her own facility. Her 2,000-square-foot private boutique gym now serves a clientele that's 90% women, providing a safe haven from the judgment often felt in traditional gym environments. "We're trying to break that stigma with our gym," she explains, describing how every potential member must meet her personally before joining.What makes Mads' approach particularly savvy is her focus on multiple revenue streams – independent trainers paying rent, personal training services, memberships, and potential future additions like supplements and merchandise. This diversification strategy provides crucial stability in an industry where 81% of gyms fail within five years.The challenges of solopreneurship weigh heavily at times. "Being a solopreneur is one of the hardest parts because I do everything myself," Mads admits. Yet she's tackling this by building a reliable team and creating systems that don't require her constant presence, with plans to expand into a collaborative wellness space including other health professionals.Perhaps most inspiring is her mindset towardWant to ask us a question?

Sean's journey will inspire anyone feeling trapped in their career.After years in construction, Sean found himself drained by his blue-collar job despite doing everything he was "supposed to" do – putting on boots each morning and providing for his family. A chance encounter with John Ratey's book "Spark" ignited something inside him, beginning a transformation that would completely reshape his life.The path wasn't straightforward. Sean candidly shares his frustrations with traditional fitness certification, describing moments of heart-pounding anxiety when confronted with textbooks filled with jargon he couldn't understand. But everything changed when he discovered a practical approach to training that focused on real-world skills rather than abstract concepts. This breakthrough gave him the confidence to approach gym owners and stand out in an industry where 90% of new trainers fail within their first year.Now earning more than his construction salary while experiencing unprecedented freedom and fulfillment, Sean finds his greatest rewards in his clients' victories – from the former hockey player who can finally fit into his college jacket again to the budget-conscious client proudly purchasing her first dumbbell. More importantly, his career change has given him precious mornings with his five-year-old son, moments he previously sacrificed to his demanding job.For anyone contemplating a career change, especially those in their 40s or 50s who think it might be too late, Sean offers powerful advice: "We're here one time on this beautiful earth. The fruits we produce in life aren't for us, they're for others. Give your gift to others." His guiding question – "If not now, when?" – might be exactly what you need to hear today.Want to ask us a question?

Stress isn't just something to “manage” — it's a signal, a teacher, and often, an invitation to look deeper at our health, our choices, and our lives.

Drawing on science, practical tools, and personal insight, Darin reveals how layered stress silently drains our vitality — and how to transform it into an ally for growth, healing, and deeper contentment. Whether it's hidden trauma, toxic environments, unresolved conflict, or the modern distractions constantly pulling at our attention, Darin lays out a roadmap to stop the leaks and reclaim the energy already within you.
