The ABMP Podcast | Speaking With the Massage & Bodywork Profession
Collagen is everywhere in the body. The 30 trillion cells that make up the human body are held together in a matrix of collagen fibers that provides structural support and gives the body its recognizable form. In this episode, Rachelle and Nicole explore all things collagen—asking if we are really "losing" it as we age, explaining its role as the body's "glue," and discussing why understanding this matrix is essential for massage therapists. You'll learn about the different types of collagen, how the matrix adapts to movement and injury, and how massage techniques communicate with the fibroblasts that build and remodel this dynamic matrix.

Performance marketing has crowded out brand building. One executive even admitted, "We're great at performance marketing, but our brand sucks." Nike learned this the hard way when they pivoted too hard toward performance and lost what made them famous.This week, Elena, Angela, and Rob tackle marketing's most persistent divide: brand versus performance. They explore why organizations still separate these teams despite evidence they work better together, how TV bridges both goals, and practical ways to measure success across the funnel.

Antonio Gutierrez of Vivid Creative Aquatics joins Eric discussing the Random Flow Generator (RFG) nozzle, a product designed to create non-laminar, turbulent, and natural water flow in enclosed systems like aquariums and ponds. The conversation highlights the counterintuitive nature of the product's function, often leading to user disbelief until they see it in action, which is facilitated by its unique, non-mechanical internal design. Gutierrez explains that the RFG works by generating pressure imbalances that result in randomized directional pulses of water, unlike traditional directional nozzles, and notes that the product, which is manufactured using 3D printing, can effectively replace multiple traditional powerheads in a reef tank. The discussion also touches on the potential applications of the technology in different environments, such as ponds and specialized reptile enclosures, where natural circulation is beneficial for the health of fish and other organisms. Key Takeaways: Prioritize creating natural, turbulent water movement in your aquatic systems to mimic ocean or river environments. Focus on providing random, varied flow to encourage fish to swim and forage naturally, instead of hiding in calm areas. Utilize randomized flow patterns to keep debris suspended, reducing the frequency of cleaning needed in tanks or ponds. Understand that achieving proper water circulation can be more critical to coral and aquatic life health than maximizing light intensity alone. Choose advanced flow devices that operate without internal moving mechanical parts to prevent equipment failure and rust.
I am SO pumped to share this episode with you because it's proof that the strategies I teach actually work in the real world.My student Stephanie Kase just pulled back the curtain on how she made $20,013 during Black Friday 2024 using my Black Friday in a Box strategy. And she documented EVERYTHING.We're talking about a woman who doubled her previous year's Black Friday results without massive audience growth. She went from making her typical $4-6K flash sales to hitting a goal that honestly seemed ambitious when she set it.What I love most about Stephanie's approach is that she didn't just follow my strategy blindly - she adapted it, tested it, and made it work for her business. She ran five days of deals, used strategic upsells, and even threw in some warm audience Facebook ads that generated a 13.4x return on ad spend.This isn't just about the numbers though. Stephanie breaks down exactly what worked, what didn't, and what she's changing for next year. She's sharing the behind-the-scenes reality of running a successful Black Friday campaign, including the 500 people who unsubscribed (and why she's totally fine with that).Grab Black Friday in a Box while it's on SALE: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-fridayWhat you'll learn:The exact 5-day deal structure that generated over $20K in salesHow strategic upsells and order bumps added $4,100 to her revenueWhy running ads to warm audiences only resulted in 13.4x return on ad spendThe specific email timing strategy that worked (and what didn't)Her biggest mistakes and what she's doing differently in 2025The email subject lines that got the highest open rates during Black Friday weekHow she prepared her audience weeks in advance with a Black Friday catalogThe backend technical issues you need to avoid when running daily dealsResources Mentioned in this Episode:Black Friday in a Box: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-fridayStephanie's breakdown and free Black Friday debrief document here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgJSgXeShB4Your Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show

Here's what you'll get in this one. Kevin and Sean press on the question “What is masculinity in 2025” and why the answer keeps changing. From aging mailers to modern medicine to how politics touches everything you do, they frame the conversation without wagging fingers. If you are tired of buzzwords and want straight talk, this sets the table. We pressure test today's masculine archetypes against work, family, health, and money. Think confidence versus control, security versus risk, and care versus performance. It is not a lecture. It is lived experience filtered through decades on the road and in boardrooms, gyms, rinks, and locker rooms. We also zoom out. Markets, gold fever, tariffs, and why “guaranteed” returns feel different when groceries climb. Creative control, royalties, and the corporate shell game show up as mirrors for how men measure value and status. The wrestling lens is a tool here. It keeps the theory honest. Culture check.

Our Mothers Knew It with Maria EckersleyA Creative Study of Come, Follow MeD&C [D&C 115-120]“His Sacrifice Shall Be More Sacred unto Me Than His Increase”October 13 – October 19, 2025WEEK 42 SUMMARY=================In Doctrine and Covenants sections 115 to 120, the Lord provides guidance to the early Saints regarding the organization and growth of the Church. Section 115 officially names the Church as "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" and emphasizes the importance of building a temple in Far West, Missouri. Section 116 identifies Adam-ondi-Ahman as a significant location for future events. Section 117 instructs Church leaders to prioritize spiritual matters over temporal concerns. Section 118 calls for the Twelve Apostles to serve missions abroad. Finally, Section 119 introduces the law of tithing as a way to support the Church and its members, and Section 120 establishes the Council on the Disposition of the Tithes to oversee the use of these sacred funds. These revelations collectively focus on the spiritual and organizational development of the Church.SPARK 1: RISE AND SHINE================SPARK 2: THE WEIGHT OF A SOUL===================================SPARK 3: FALLEN FROM GRACE=============================OBJECT LESSON 1: “I Say unto You All: Arise and Shine Forth”: Floating Fire Ghosts=============================OBJECT LESSON 2: “Let the Twelve Be Organized”: Special Witnesses Trivia & Books=============================CHAPTERS=========00:00:14 INTRO00:05:44 QUICK GLANCE00:09:41 INSIGHTS 100:20:09 QUESTIONS 100:22:22 INSIGHTS 200:35:11 QUESTIONS 200:37:12 INSIGHTS 300:45:17 QUESTIONS 300:48:27 OBJECT LESSON 100:52:30 OBJECT LESSON 200:56:02 WRAP UPLINKS=====WEB: https://www.gather.meckmom.comETSY: https://www.etsy.com/shop/meckmomINSTAGRAM: Instagram @meckmomlifePODCAST: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST DISCLAIMER=================================This podcast represents my own thoughts and opinions.

A NEW RECIPE FOR FOOD MAGAZINES—You may think a magazine called Famous for My Dinner Parties would be about food or entertaining—and I wouldn't blame you if you did. You wouldn't be wrong, but you also wouldn't be right.Taking its name from Robert Altman's film, 3 Women, Famous for My Dinner Parties started as a pandemic-inspired digital project among three friends (Junshen Wu, Sandra von Mayer-Myrtenheim and Yannic Moeken) in Berlin and has evolved into a proper magazine and media brand, and along the way has won an engaged and broad audience far beyond Berlin. Something that continues to surprise the founders.The magazine is slightly odd, if I'm being honest, idiosyncratic, thoroughly compelling, and undeniably beautiful. It's also almost entirely done in house, including all the design, photography and writing. And despite this, or maybe because of it, the thing works. Whether or not this method—or lack of one—is sustainable is another question.And just to be clear, there is not a single recipe in the magazine. Just a whole lot of ideas. This is a magazine then, editorially and conceptually, built around vibes. Fuel for a discussion, perhaps, at your next really great dinner party. Whether or not you aspire to any sort of fame.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
If your days feel like a relentless sprint—from school drop-offs to late-night routines—you're not alone. In this short and powerful solo episode, I open up about the challenges of maintaining intimacy, presence, and intention in marriage when life gets overwhelmingly busy. With fall sports, kid activities, and work responsibilities piling up, it's all too easy to slip into “roommate mode” with your spouse. But here's the truth: Strong families start with strong marriages. I share three deeply practical ways to create micro-moments of connection, build intentional rituals, and avoid emotional drift. Whether it's through a 30-minute walk, a forehead kiss, or a late-night two-minute check-in, this episode is your reminder that you're not just co-parents—you're still each other's chosen partner. Episode Highlights [0:00] - Introduction [1:05] - Why strong marriages are the foundation of strong families [2:55] - The common trap of prioritizing everything but your marriage [4:46] - The September-October “whiplash” that hits most parents hard [5:43] - Celebrating the release of The Pursuit of Legendary Fatherhood [8:19] - How an unbalanced focus on your kids can erode your marriage [10:09] - The power of micro-moments: texts, sticky notes, forehead kisses [12:31] - Creative date ideas (even when time is scarce) [14:29] - Why sometimes the world has to suffer—but your marriage shouldn't [15:14] - End-of-day rituals that spark closeness even in exhaustion [17:41] - The compound interest effect of tiny deposits in your marriage [18:03] - You are more than a co-parent—you're still her Casanova [19:13] - A free 21-day email series to help you build an extraordinary marriage [20:54] - Final rally cry: be uncommon, be legendary 5 Key Takeaways 1. Strong Marriages Build Strong Families When your marriage is thriving, it naturally strengthens the emotional climate of your entire home. Don't neglect the foundation. 2. Micro-Moments Matter More Than Grand Gestures A quick kiss, a thoughtful note, or a midday “thinking of you” text can do more for connection than elaborate plans you never get to. 3. Busy Seasons Are Inevitable—Disconnection Isn't Just because life is chaotic doesn't mean your relationship has to suffer. Intention and awareness are your defense against emotional drift. 4. You're Still Her Lover, Not Just Her Co-Parent The role of “dad” is important—but don't forget you were her partner first. That romance needs nurturing, especially when time is tight. 5. Investing in Your Marriage Pays Long-Term Dividends Like compound interest, the small daily investments you make in your marriage build a future of closeness, trust, and enduring partnership.

Growth Through Acquisition: Lessons from Navy Veteran and Entrepreneur Gary MacDermidEntrepreneurship often requires both discipline and strategic vision, and few embody that combination like Gary MacDermid—a Navy veteran turned successful business acquirer, investor, and author. In a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge sat down with Gary to discuss his journey from military service to civilian business leadership, offering actionable strategies for veterans and entrepreneurs alike. This post distills key insights from the conversation, focusing on growth through acquisition, creative financing, and the importance of intentional goal-setting.Accelerating Growth Through Acquisition and Strategic Goal-SettingGary emphasizes that acquiring businesses—rather than relying solely on organic growth—can rapidly scale revenue, talent, and operational capacity. By identifying complementary businesses and overlaying high-value services, entrepreneurs can unlock immediate opportunities and enhance client value. Creative financing options, such as seller financing, SBA loans, and private investors, make acquisitions accessible even without deep upfront capital, allowing business owners to pursue strategic growth without overextending resources.Veterans, in particular, benefit from leveraging military discipline and intentional goal-setting, which Gary details in his book Set Your Own Goals or Someone Else Will. He recommends defining clear milestones, breaking down actionable steps, and seeking mentorship or peer accountability to navigate complex business decisions effectively. Beyond acquisition strategies, Gary stresses the importance of cultural integration and communication to ensure smooth transitions for both clients and staff, ensuring that growth is sustainable rather than just rapid.For all entrepreneurs, Gary underscores the value of overlaying high-ticket services on acquired businesses, continuously learning from new markets, and integrating processes that drive efficiency. Whether transitioning from military service or expanding an existing business, the principles of acquisition, strategic financing, and clear goal-setting serve as powerful levers to accelerate success.About Gary MacDermidGary MacDermid is a Navy veteran, investor, business acquirer, and author of Set Your Own Goals or Someone Else Will.

Can a performing arts center change the identity of a city? Tom Gabbard has spent more than two decades proving it can as CEO of Blumenthal Arts in Charlotte, NC. Under his leadership, Blumenthal has grown from a regional performing arts center into a national force. Charlotte now ranks among North America's Top 10 markets for touring Broadway shows, and the organization also fosters experimental projects in Blume Studios, a 44,000-square-foot “arts R&D lab” that pushes beyond traditional stages. In this episode, Tom reflects on how he balances commercial success with cultural mission, programs with local artists and community needs in mind, and pilots immersive experiences that redefine what arts participation can look like.

Early in my self-development days, I would only consume non-fiction, self-help books. It seemed to be doing the trick but I became more consumed with the amount of books I read at the expense of actually improving my life. Then a friend encouraged me to read fiction every once in a while. Shortly thereafter, my friend Jack Carr, released his first book, Terminal List – which I devoured. And, Jack Carr is back with me again to talk about his newest book, Cry Havoc. But we talk a whole lot more than just the book. We cover how best to cultivate a new skill set (be it writing or something else), the importance of exercising the brain, making yourself better through wisdom, worrying about only what you can control, and the value of fictional work on your self-development journey.
