Sign up here: https://schoolofselfimage.com/join What if everything we've been told about aging well is keeping us from actually living well? What if all the products, protocols, and rules for "aging gracefully" are actually doing the opposite? You've heard the typical hacks: eat healthy, exercise, maybe even Botox. But those things don't guarantee a well-lived life. As I turn 50, I want to share what truly matters when it comes to creating a life that feels as good as it looks. These aren't the surface-level tips you'll find in a magazine. These are the deeper, more sophisticated truths about what it really takes to age powerfully. Here's what we cover: • Why aging well isn't about holding on to youth, but releasing what no longer fits • How knowing and living your true values reshapes the second half of your life • The difference between looking young and feeling fully alive • Why pleasure, presence, and vitality matter more than constant productivity • How cultivating interests and boundaries creates richness, confidence, and ease • The power of consciously choosing and telling an aging story rooted in expansion, not decline A note on this episode: We experienced some technical difficulties during recording that affected the audio and video quality. The conversation itself, however, is too valuable not to share. Did you enjoy this episode? Subscribe to the podcast and leave a 5-star review!

How do you transition from the world’s most promising talent to a triple Olympic gold medalist while balancing a Master’s? For Gabby Thomas, the path to Paris was paved with a refined commitment to her own longevity. After the intense physical toll of the Tokyo cycle and the subsequent seasons of high-stakes racing, Gabby opens up about the essential "choice to choose me"—the deliberate decision to prioritize her health, recovery, and mental wellness over the external pressure to constantly perform. This shift wasn't just about physical rest; it was about building a sustainable foundation that allowed her to walk onto the track in Paris with a sense of calm that only comes from knowing your "why." That intentionality resulted in a career-defining performance in 2024. Thomas cemented her status as the fastest woman in the world over 200 meters, taking home the individual gold in Paris along with two additional gold medals as a dominant force in the 4x100m and 4x400m relays. On this week's episode, we dive into how she manages the "mental load" of being a champion, the data-driven approach she takes to her health, and why her purpose in public health remains the north star for everything she does on the track. IN THIS EPISODE The emotional high of winning individual gold in Paris Juggling Ivy League academics with elite track and field training Why she pursued a Master’s in public health and how it shapes her worldview Her "I’m choosing me first" mantra regarding health and recovery The evolution of her mental toolkit and handling Olympic-level pressure Her partnership with Amazfit and the role of data in her wellness routine Looking ahead: Goals and dreams for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics QUOTABLE MOMENTS On Purpose and Perspective "It’s bigger than me. It’s about my purpose and what I want to show the younger generation." "Success is not defined by the speed at which you reach your goals." On Mental Health and Longevity "I'm choosing me first. Health and longevity beat pressure and headlines every time." "If you get caught up in needing to prove you belong, you've already lost the plot."

Have you ever noticed that the moment you set a boundary, everything starts to shift, and people suddenly discover brand new feelings about it?  On this episode, Rebecca and Seth dig into how boundaries really work in real-life parenting, work, technology, friendships, and yes, even marriage. Rebecca and Seth unpack one of the most requested topics in the Whinypaluza community. Boundaries. The kind you set with your kids. The type you wish you could set with extended family. The kind you absolutely need with work. And the kind you forget to set with yourself until your inner critic hijacks the afternoon. This episode explores how boundaries protect time, energy, money, emotional bandwidth, and the flow of everyday life.  With humor stories and classic Greene honesty, they show how saying no opens the door to so many better yes moments. From not going to the neighborhood party because the couch was winning to forgetting to shut down work at night to teaching kids you mean it when you say no, Rebecca and Seth make boundaries understandable and doable for every mom tuning in. Six Key Takeaways → Time boundaries save your sanity. Your time is precious. Every yes to someone else is a no to something important to you. Know your priorities and stick to them. → Energy boundaries tell the truth. If your tank is empty, you are allowed to say Not tonight and notice who drains you and who fills you. Choose accordingly. → Parenting boundaries shape your home. Kids actually need your no. Especially when it involves safety, respect, and expectations. Rebecca reminds us that a fully developed brain is not on their ingredient list yet. → Relationship boundaries strengthen love. Sometimes the healthiest boundary is asking for space before a tough conversation. Seth learning to wait instead of diving right in is a prime example. → Technology boundaries help you breathe.  Social media can boost or drain your mood. Curate what you consume, and be willing to put the phone on silent. → Emotional boundaries protect your heart. Supporting people does not mean carrying their emotional baggage home with you. Check your capacity before taking on someone's story. Connect with Rebecca: https://linktr.ee/whinypaluzamom Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week Sarah Khiroya shared a message about the profound act of adoration in the Christmas carol "O Come, All Ye Faithful," particularly focusing on the line "Oh come let us adore Him" as an invitation to express our deepest worship for Jesus. She emphasized that our praise and worship are the most fitting offerings to honor the incomparable gift of Jesus, encouraging reflection on how we can join the angels in their eternal chorus of adoration.

In this episode, I talk about why your conversations determine your direction, the difference between community and proximity, why your partner's alignment matters more than compatibility, the power of reading, listening, and consuming content that elevates your worldview, how to stop bonding over limitations and start bonding over growth, why your identity expands or contracts based on your environment, how to curate a life that calls you higher, not keeps you comfortable, the spiritual principle behind “by their fruits you will know them” applied to friendships and influence, how to build an environment that makes growth your default and more.

"Art is a language without words." —Kate Bryan, author of How to Art: Bringing a Fancy Subject Down to Earth Why art? Why bring it into our lives? Why spend our hard-earned money on it? We often hear about the skyrocketing headline-making prices of paintings being sold at auction, but what's the point of purchasing something if the entire reason is to accrue value to sell later? The primary objective, Bryan shares, in writing this book, is to remove the assumed 'closed doors' or air of snobbery about art that she admits the art world itself has constructed. But, and she makes a strong argument, art, seeing it, appreciating it, making it, is part of being human. And to cordon it off, to claim that it is only a pastime for those with oodles of money or interest to acquire art of the upper echelons is preposterous. You may be wondering, Why is Shannon talking about this subject? What does art have to do with living simply luxuriously? With living a life of true contentment? It is precisely because true contentment is grounded in presence, seeing, clearing, and appreciating the everyday that the choice to bring art into our homes helps us savor each and every moment even more. When we bring works of art into our homes, we bring in a moment in the artist's life as they saw it. Their capturing of this ordinary moment in time, however they depict it, is a reminder that there is "beauty and marvels in the everyday". Even if we cannot or do not want to even try to be a literal artist, by gazing at their art, having it be present in our daily lives, we are continually reminded to see the gift in each day - to consciously look for it, take note of it without taking it for granted, and to savor it. Today, I would like to encourage you to consider, if you haven't already, acquiring an art collection to display in your home. Of course, how and where you display it, most likely throughout your home, will be up to you. Conveying your tastes, interests, and values in what each work depicts reflects a collector who engages with life in the present and brings their self-knowledge and quiet confidence to what captures their eye.   Find the Show Notes on The Simply Luxurious Life blog https://thesimplyluxuriouslife.com/podcast415

This week we're once again dipping into the archive, and revisiting an episode we released in May with Adam Goldenberg, CEO and Co-Founder of Fabletics. Adam has been an entrepreneur since the age of 16, and he shares what decades of experience have taught him about building a successful brand. Summary: When you're shopping for clothes, there's a checklist of things you look for: you want them to look and feel good, you want them to last a long time, you might want them ethically and sustainably sourced, and probably most importantly, you don't want them to break the bank. In 2011 one active wear company emerged that ticked pretty much all those boxes.  Adam Goldenberg is the CEO and Co-Founder of Fabletics. Adam is a seasoned entrepreneur and leader in the e-commerce industry with a proven track record of building multiple-billion dollar brands. In fact, alongside co-founder Don Ressler, Adam has generated over $10 billion dollars in sales through his company, TechStyle Fashion Group, which in addition to Fabletics, has launched other digitally-native fashion brands like Savage X Fenty, Just Fab, Fab Kids, Shoedazzle and Yitti.  Adam launched his first company at 16, at 19 he became the youngest ever COO of a public company. He joins us to share his thoughts on e-commerce, customer retention, sustainability, and opportunities to grow the Fabletics brand.  Highlights:Fabletics origins (2:50)Fabletics' customer base (4:48)Tech and personalization (5:55)Celebrity partnerships (7:32)Membership model (8:37)E-commerce vs. Brick and mortar retail (11:23)Amazon (13:54)Plans for growth (15:27)Sustainability (19:09)Lesson's learned (20:58)What's next for Fabletics (23:19)Links:Adam Goldenberg LinkedInFabletics LinkedInFabletics WebsiteICR LinkedInICR TwitterICR Website Feedback:If you have questions about the show, or have a topic in mind you'd like discussed in future episodes, email our producer, joe@lowerstreet.co.

Today, Amy Walls and Jag dive into why it feels like everyone around us has more money, more freedom, or more upgrades than we do — and why that perception is often just that: perception. Social media plays a huge role in this feeling. The constant exposure to curated highlight reels makes it easy to believe others are winning financially, while we're falling behind. Amy points out that what we see online is rarely the whole picture. People share the new boat or vacation, not the credit card debt, parental help, or stress behind the scenes.We also talk about how older stats around side hustles — like claims that 50% of people have them — still influence how we think today, despite more accurate 2025 data showing only 25% of adults actually have one. And affluence is often funded by invisible resources like family wealth or debt, which makes comparisons misleading and self-defeating.Psychologically, we're wired for social comparison, but our brains focus upward. We look at those doing better, rarely at those with less. That creates ever-shifting benchmarks for “enough,” raising the bar as others share their wins. On top of that, algorithms feed us more of what we engage with — usually success stories — which can skew our sense of what's normal.Amy walks us through the reality: the national savings rate is low (4–5%), emergency funds are thin (1 in 5 adults can't handle a $100 surprise), and credit card debt is at an all-time high in 2025. Even those who look like they have it all together might be stretched thin.Why does this all sting so much? Because we've tied our identity to our finances. Falling behind feels like failure. It hits at our self-worth and creates a stress loop: we feel behind, we spend to catch up, and that spending adds more stress. It's emotional and financial burnout.So how do we break the cycle? First, redefine goals based on our own needs. Track progress against your own goals — like building savings or reducing debt — not against someone else's vacation photos. Curate your feeds to remove content that sparks comparison. Write down what “enough” looks like for you in terms of comfort, flexibility, and fun.

At the time, she had a dream business—thriving event planning company, skilled team, systems in place. But deep down, she knew something else was calling.She didn't have all the answers, but she had the courage to ask better questions.In today's episode, I'm sharing a full-circle moment: Robin stepped away from what was working and launched Curate, a luxury networking experience for wedding professionals—and invited me to speak at her event.You'll hear a clip from that keynote, where I talk about reinvention, starting messy, and building a business beyond your first success.If you've ever wondered how to pivot, what comes after success, or whether it's “too late” to start again—this episode is for you.You're not behind.

I have lots of thoughts to share today of things I think we should normalize.    Things that aren't considered normal in general in the world we live in and I'm going to argue my point of why I think they should be.   For us and for our families and for the people around us.   Because our goal is to always strive for fulfillment and joy and health and longevity and peace of mind and all of these ideas I'm going to present to you today support all of that.   I'm going to get heat for some of these and I love it because its against the grain and thinking for ourselves and being exceptional.      Things To Normalize Normalize saying no to cheap dopamine and yes to deep dopamine. Joy comes from doing what you're built to do. Action over distraction. Delay instant gratification for meaningful payoff. Bring your own food places when you don't like the options. Take ownership of your choices instead of settling for what's easy. Assume people will make mistakes and ask questions, double check things, and take notes. It's not negative. It's responsible. Normalize working hard, including on weekends, when you're pursuing something you believe in. Showing up when it counts matters. Especially at unconventional hours. Normalize not drinking until you throw up. Choose self mastery and presence instead of blackout culture. Clarity over blur. Presence over party. Normalize not having sex until you find someone you deeply respect or want to build a life with. Choose what matches your values instead of what culture expects. Normalize starting something brand new and taking big risks, even when people think it's strange. Launch even when you're scared. Normalize celebrating your wins as big as birthdays. If it mattered to you, it's worth celebrating. Normalize working out seven days a week with rest and stretch built in. Movement is medicine. Make it a daily non negotiable. Normalize questioning teachers, institutions, and systems when something doesn't make sense. Stand up for your kids and yourself with confidence and curiosity. Normalize using your calendar as your measure of wealth. Time matters more than money. Protect it. Normalize defining success for yourself. Choose your own values and live by them with confidence. Normalize being loud, opinionated, and real when something matters. Speak up. Be fiery. Be aligned. Normalize rest and recovery as essential parts of working hard. Rest is productive. Rest gives you your edge. Normalize letting your kids see you hustle, fail, pivot, and rise. Show the process, not perfection. Normalize doing things you're not good at yet. The climb has no peak. Let yourself be a beginner. Normalize saying "I don't know." Honesty and humility create real strength. Normalize choosing your inner circle intentionally. Your environment shapes your growth. Curate it well. Normalize early mornings, disciplined schedules, and foundational habits. Keep life simple and focused. Normalize embracing pain and discomfort as signs you're growing. Lean into growth rather than backing away from it. Normalize enjoying the process instead of obsessing over the outcome. Appreciate the now. Joy lives in the doing. Normalize aligning your body, mind, and spirit with your purpose. Success includes health, relationships, and inner peace. Normalize valuing your health as highly as you value your work. Health is foundational to everything else. Normalize being different, weird, or exceptional. Normal actions get normal results. Stand out proudly. Normalize prioritizing sleep, recovery, and emotional wellbeing. Rest deeply and intentionally. Normalize teaching your kids to build their own path. Encourage their independence and confidence. Normalize celebrating vulnerability, asking for help, and being transparent about your journey. Choose authenticity over perfection.   CHEERS to creating your own normal that makes your life more awesome!

Most CEOs and entrepreneurs are neglecting their most important asset: their personal brand. Kara Goldin (founder of Hint Water) asked me a great question on her show: "How does SEO vary for a brand versus an individual?" My answer surprised her—and it might surprise you too. In this special crossover episode on Marketing Speak, I explain why most business leaders focus exclusively on their company's brand while ignoring their own. The problem? Your personal brand is the only one you take with you throughout your career. Companies come and go, but your name is forever. What we covered:  → Why content publishers often outrank established industry brands (and what to learn from them)  → How to identify indirect competitors with superior SEO knowledge  → The SparkToro tool that reveals exactly which hashtags your audience is using  → Why your personal website matters more than just having an "About the Founder" page Based on my work with major brands over three decades, I share proven strategies to ensure everything on page one—for both your personal name AND your company—either supports your narrative or gets pushed off entirely. This isn't about gaming the system. It's about strategic positioning that builds lasting digital authority.  Tune in!

Crystal Rivers | Word for Now | Nov 3, 2025 Let your mind be renewed until you can test and prove God's good, acceptable, and perfect will in real time. Read Scripture like a map of “holy hyperlinks”: when you see patterns (120 in the upper room; the cloud that filled the tabernacle and temple; the smoke that fills the temple in Revelation 15), grasp the message—when God's glory (His light) fills His house, reality is revealed. That revealing is what Scripture calls “wrath”: not God lashing out, but light exposing and undoing whatever partners with death. Treat sin like cancer—small mutations that look harmless until they consume; do not negotiate with it. Refuse the world's narratives that keep the “old man” animated; walk by the light of what God says of you in Christ. Go deeper: how to live this now • Rule your inputs. Curate what you watch, read, and repeat. Your “inner light” is shaped by your daily feed. Replace doom-scroll with Word-scroll. • Daily exchange. Morning and night: (1) confess what's false, (2) declare what's true “in Christ,” (3) take one concrete action within 24 hours that agrees with truth. • Short accounts. Repent fast, forgive fast, reconcile fast. Don't sleep with accusation in your mouth or offense in your heart. • Welcome exposure. Ask trusted believers to lovingly confront blind spots. Treat reproof as mercy, not shame. • Train imagination. Meditate until you see yourself acting like Jesus in specific pressures—then go do it. • Fast strategically. Use food, media, and comfort fasts to break agreement with “old-man” reflexes. Pair every fast with extra Word and prayer. • Pray for light, not ease. Ask for illumination that makes sin impossible to hide and obedience easy to choose. • Practice generosity. Give time, honor, and money where it costs you. It starves pride and feeds love. Reading numbers as hyperlinks (so symbols serve obedience) • 12 → Governmental maturity (tribes/apostles). • 10 → Testing/completeness of order. • 100 → Fullness/fruitfulness. • 120 → Priestly fullness unto glory (echoing the trumpeting priests). • 144,000 → A picture of completeness multiplied (mature, sealed people across tribes), pointing to a people formed into Christ, not mere headcount. Use symbols to aim your life: pursue maturity, tested obedience, fruit that remains, priestly worship, and sealed allegiance. Discernment drills (5 minutes each) 1. Light Check: “What am I believing right now? Does it agree with the Word or with fear/pride?” Replace the lie with a verse and an action. 2. Speech Guard: Before replying, ask: “Will these words sow light or feed death?” If neutral or dark, wait. 3. Peace Barometer: If peace drops, trace the last agreement you made (thought, word, click). Break it; agree with truth again. 4. Mercy Reflex: When someone fails, act in the opposite spirit within one hour: bless, cover, help. 5. Hidden Yes: Do one obedient act daily that only God sees. It trains you for a glory-filled temple where flesh cannot posture. Community rhythms that make holiness feel like love • Confession before communion. Normalize brief, specific confession and prayer before worship. • Testimony of exposure → restoration. Celebrate stories where light revealed sin and produced healing. • Prophetic with process. Words that expose should come with a path to restore (scripture, steps, accountability, time frame). • Hospitality as warfare. Open tables dismantle isolation, bitterness, and secret agreements with darkness. Pitfalls to refuse • Spectator faith. Consuming teachings without practicing them calcifies the heart. • Cynicism disguised as discernment. Testing everything is biblical; scorning everything is unbelief. • End-times fear. Revelation's aim is loyalty and hope, not panic. Read for the glory outcome. • Selective obedience. Partial yes is a slow no; it keeps the “old man” on life support. A simple daily liturgy (10 minutes) 1. Present: “Lord, I present my body a living sacrifice.” 2. Renew: Read a short passage; speak one sentence of obedience you'll do today. 3. Renounce: Name any lie/accusation; replace it with truth out loud. 4. Request: “Flood my heart with light. Make exposure my friend and love my reflex.” 5. Release: Bless an enemy, a rival, or a critic by name. Lean into that future now—detox from worldliness, fast and pray, saturate your imagination with the Word, stay tender and quick to repent, forgive before you feel it, welcome loving correction, and build communities where prophetic clarity, humility, and mercy make compromise impossible. Search out what God has hidden for you (not from you): the unsearchable riches of Christ will meet you as you seek. Live like a king who searches matters out; love like a bride who reads the romance in every parable; and let your daily choices agree with the light you intend to live by.

You know that moment when your players spend ten minutes searching a room, roll a 5, and you sigh before saying, "You find… nothing"? Yeah, we're done with that. In this episode, the RPGBOT crew grabs the Dungeon Master's Guide by the binding and asks the real questions: Why are searches so boring, and why do your players keep looting every chair leg like it's the Ark of the Covenant? It's time to make treasure exciting again — and maybe throw in a cursed spoon or two for good measure. Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts dive into using random treasure and how to make it fun. Not ready for the burden of homebrewing every magical baubel the players find? Still want treasure to feel cool and exciting instead of handing out 2d4 silver pieces? Grab a random treasure table and listen in. They cover: How to curate random treasures so rewards feel tailored, not tacked on. Procedural generation and OSR-style loot tables for DMs who want surprise without chaos. The psychology of reward design—why a potion of healing can feel more exciting than a +1 sword. How Pathfinder 2e's treasure parcel system solves common D&D loot issues. Turning random loot into story hooks that feed back into your worldbuilding. Whether you're running a gritty hexcrawl, a dungeon delve, or a modern urban fantasy, you'll walk away with tools to hoard of treasure hoards and make every treasure feel earned. Key Takeaways Roll less, describe more. Replace meaningless Perception checks with interactive exploration and sensory clues. Random doesn't mean meaningless. Curate your treasure tables around your campaign's themes. Passive Perception is your pacing tool. Use it to keep exploration snappy without robbing players of agency. Economy matters. Gold, consumables, and downtime rewards all affect campaign health. Player engagement > item rarity. Surprise players with creativity, not just loot value. Procedural tools save prep time. Random tables and generators can be incredible when you understand their purpose. Reward discovery, not just dice. Make your players feel clever when they find something hidden — even if you planned it all along. If you've ever caught yourself saying "You find nothing," it's time to level up your DM game.

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!Two timelines. Dozens of videos. One uncomfortable pattern: our feeds are training us to fight. We set out to play a simple game—“Whose feed is it?”—and ended up mapping how algorithms steer attention toward outrage, race-bait clips, and culture-war content designed to keep you scrolling and seething.We start with a candid look at intra-Catholic debates and why public commentary on big moves—like media personalities joining major platforms—should be fair game. Then a body-cam video from a church stops the jokes cold: a man tries to breach a tabernacle while a lone officer hesitates. We talk through drugs vs. possession, the importance of proper procedures, and how policy-driven optics can put both citizens and officers at risk. It's not anti-police to say training and backup save lives; it's pro-reality.From there, we follow the week's algorithmic arc: EBT panic, fraud clips, and the budget math no one wants to discuss. We break down how inflation acts as a stealth tax, why debt service is swallowing policy space, and how little truly changes across administrations once you look past the branding. Meanwhile, social video continues to spotlight bad behavior because it pays—and the more people rage-share, the more these moments define whole groups. That's not good reporting; it's content engineering.To lighten the mood (a bit), we explore the strange and hilarious corners of Zoomer meme culture—white Monster energy, Agartha lore—and how even these jokes become identity markers the platforms can sort and sell. The throughline: feeds shape frames, frames shape feelings, and feelings drive choices in the real world. The fix isn't to hide; it's to raise your standards above the algorithm's incentives. Curate what you consume, interrogate what's missing, and talk openly about institutions and influencers without losing your grip on charity or truth.If you care about media literacy, Catholic commentary with a backbone, and untangling policy from performance, this one's for you. Listen, share with a friend, and tell us: what's the strangest pattern your feed has been pushing lately? Subscribe, leave a review, and send us your best (or worst) algorithm finds—we'll feature our favorites next time.Support the showTake advantage of Recusant Cellar's "Christ the King" sale by heading over to https://recusantcellars.com/ and using code "BASED" for 20% off at checkout!********************************************************Please subscribe! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKsxnv80ByFV4OGvt_kImjQ?sub_confirmation=1https://www.avoidingbabylon.comMerchandise: https://avoiding-babylon-shop.fourthwall.comLocals Community: https://avoidingbabylon.locals.comFull Premium/Locals Shows on Audio Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1987412/subscribeRSS Feed for Podcast Apps: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1987412.rssRumble: https://rumble.com/c/AvoidingBabylon

Five-Star Clinic: Lessons from High-End Restaurants In this episode, Doc Danny Matta unpacks what elite restaurants do differently—then maps those exact moves to cash-based PT. From the reservation experience to ambiance, “the menu,” service, and checkout, learn how details create premium value, command higher rates, and generate more referrals. Quick Ask Help us reach our mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to physical therapy: share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your Instagram stories and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare! Episode Summary Reservation experience → Pre-visit touch: Don't rely on generic confirmations. Call/text with directions, parking, “what to expect,” and a 1–2 day pre-visit email from the actual provider. Ambiance → Your space: Design matters. Lighting, smell, layout, materials, music, branding—create an intentional feel your ideal patient loves (and wants to refer into). Menu → Productized services: Name and package outcomes (e.g., “Pain-Free Performance Plan,” “Athlete Optimization”). Present options with a clean pricing sheet and a confident recommendation. Service → Clinical excellence + standards: Providers are your brand. Hold the standard on punctuality, communication, dress, outcomes, and EQ. Coach up or move on. Checkout → Frictionless finish + surprise & delight: Card on file, painless renewals, small “day-one” gifts (e.g., mobility tools), and handwritten thank-you notes. Premium perception: Details separate you from commodity clinics, justify higher prices, improve hiring/retention, and grow word-of-mouth. Lessons & Takeaways Details are the brand: Senses and systems create perceived value before treatment starts. Curate the offer: Productize services and tie them to outcomes—not visit counts. Own the recommendation: Be definitive with prognosis and plan; don't talk patients out of yes. Invest in the room: Space design is a growth investment, not a cost center. Mindset & Motivation The standard is the standard: High-performing teams protect the bar—and A-players expect it. Experience > price: When the experience is elite, price sensitivity drops. Steal like an operator: Study elite brands (restaurants, retail, studios) and adapt their best ideas. Pro Tips for Owners Pre-visit provider email: 2 days before, introduce yourself, set expectations, share a clinic video. Design the senses: Lighting plan, signature scent, music policy, brand palette, signage. Pricing sheet = menu: Clean layout, outcome-named plans, clear primary recommendation. Frictionless billing: Card on file, pay-in-full or monthly plan, one-tap renewals. Wow moment: Day-one useful gift (e.g., mobility balls) bundled into care—don't nickel & dime. Notable Quotes “In world-class restaurants the details are the experience. Your clinic is no different.” “Your pricing sheet is your menu—curate it, name it, and recommend with confidence.” “Patients buy outcomes and experience, not minutes on a table.” Action Items Write a pre-visit SOP: admin call + provider intro email + directions/parking. Audit your space for lighting, scent, music, and signage—fix one item this week. Rename and package your top 2–3 offers into outcome-based plans. Implement card on file and simplify renewals. Buy day-one gifts for all new plans of care and add handwritten thank-you cards.

You will also hear why storytelling builds loyalty and how to make clients excited about new possibilities in your chair. Key Takeaways:

On Healthy Waves with host Avik Chakraborty, three practitioners unpack practical ways to heal and build real stamina—physically, mentally, and spiritually. Veronique Ory (author of Shine On and Off the Mat) shows how breath and presence regulate stress and translate beyond the mat. Jennifer Robb, NP (author of Warrior Mom Rising) lays out clear steps for mothers to advocate for teens facing anxiety, depression, and self-harm—without burning out. Timothy Ward (author of The GOAT Within) explains his Fitness Quadrant—resistance training, nutrition, cardio, and recovery—to protect muscle, heart strength, and metabolic health as we age. Direct, grounded, and usable the same day. About the guests   Veronique Ory — Yoga teacher, storyteller, and creator of SHINE membership; focuses on breath-led movement for regulation and longevity. Author of Shine On and Off the Mat. Jennifer Robb, NP — Clinician and advocate for parents navigating adolescent mental health; author of Warrior Mom Rising and host of a community for “Warrior Moms.” Timothy Ward — Fitness and longevity mentor. Trains clients 40–80+ using his Fitness Quadrant framework. Author of The GOAT Within. Key takeaways : Breath is a portable regulator: train longer, nasal breaths and apply them in real-life triggers (conflict, commutes, difficult news), not just in class. Build stress capacity on purpose: controlled physical “stress” (yoga holds, strength work, cold/heat exposure as appropriate) teaches the nervous system to recover instead of overreact. For parents: advocacy is ongoing, not a one-off. Choose clinicians who engage, adjust what's not working, and combine care plans with root-cause work and appropriate, clinician-guided treatment. Protect the three longevity levers: muscle mass, cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health—via resistance training, individualized nutrition, cardio protocols, and deliberate recovery. Community prevents isolation spirals. Curate your circle; “show me your friends and I'll show you your future.” Progress is incremental. Break unhelpful loops, stack small wins, and choose environments that align with who you're becoming.

What if scaling your vacation rental business could actually hurt your bottom line? This week, Jamie Lane sits down with Ashley Ching, founder and CEO of Inhaven, to unpack her research on why national hospitality management companies—from Vacasa to Ambridge—have repeatedly failed to scale successfully. Together, they dive into the structural challenges of the short-term rental industry and uncover why “bigger” doesn't always mean “better.”Ashley shares insights from hundreds of executive interviews across hotels, restaurants, and vacation rentals, revealing five key pillars that separate thriving, sustainable property managers from those that crumble under complexity. From the myth of economies of scale to the power of local operations and curated portfolios, this episode is a must-listen for any STR professional who wants to grow smarter—not just larger.Whether you manage 10 homes or 1,000, this conversation reframes how you think about profitability, service, and scale—and what true success in hospitality really looks like. You don't want to miss this episode.Key TakeawaysBigger isn't better: Hospitality is a labor-driven business, not a production line—growth often brings higher costs and lower margins.Curate your portfolio: The most successful managers focus on quality over quantity, offboarding “bad” properties that drain time and profit.Stay local: Empowering on-the-ground teams and decision-makers leads to stronger operations and better guest experiences.Choose owners wisely: Aligning with the right owners is as crucial as choosing the right homes.Pick your focus: You can prioritize service, scale, or profitability—but not all three at once.   Sign up for AirDNA for FREE

When your teen snaps or shuts down, could anxiety be hiding underneath?What can you do—today—to support them without “fixing” them? Colleen talks with therapist and author Sophia Vale Galano, LCSW about recognizing teen anxiety (including surprising signs like irritability and anger), the biological and cultural drivers (from hormones to social media and admissions pressure), and what actually helps at home. They unpack why quick fixes backfire, how to communicate about hard topics, and ways to modify expectations, build self-esteem, and set boundaries over blanket restrictions (e.g., muting or curating feeds instead of banning apps). Sophia shares practical scripts, “what to say/what to avoid,” and mom-first strategies like leading by example and using preventive care long before a crisis. Sophia Vale Galano is a licensed clinical social worker serving teens and adults in California. With experience across residential, inpatient, outpatient, and school settings, she specializes in adolescent anxiety and parent coaching. Her new book, Calming Teenage Anxiety, gives parents concrete tools and phrases to support anxious teens with clarity and compassion. Three takeaways: Listen before you fix. Validation opens the door; advice can slam it shut. Boundaries beat restrictions. Curate tech (mute/restrict/positive follows) rather than blanket bans to protect self-esteem and trust. Model what you want to see. Your therapy, rest, limits, and self-care quietly teach your teen how to manage anxiety.

Being Seen on PurposeJournal prompt: "What healing looks like—even when I can't feel it—is…"Witnessing redistributes weight. Not gone—carried together. Today we practice asking to be seen, cleanly and without apology.A Flicker (Hope) — You're allowed to be heard Five quiet minutes. A nod. A text that lands. Hope isn't a speech; it's an accurate reflection without fixing.To Rebuild (Healing) — The five-minute witnessing ask Text: “Could you hold five minutes for me today? No fixing—just listening.” Live/Call: “I don't need solutions—just five minutes to be heard. Is now okay?” If no one's free: 3–5 min voice memo, a not-sent letter, or a 60-second mirror check (one feeling, one need, one next inch).Take a Step (Becoming) — A boundary you'll actually use Draft one sentence for this week: “I'm heading out now; I've met my limit.” “I'm skipping this year, but I hope it's meaningful for you.” “Listening is all I need right now.”Choose-your-energy menu: Hollow (low): 5-4-3-2-1 grounding (see, touch, hear, smell, taste). Stop there. Healing (medium): Send the five-minute ask—or schedule it. If no person, record a 3-minute memo. Becoming (higher): Use your boundary once in a low-stakes moment.Food for Thought Today: Your story isn't a public utility. Curate who gets access. Clarity is care. You don't owe anyone a perfect explanation to deserve compassion; a simple “this is what I need” is enough. It's also okay if the right listener isn't available today—self-witnessing still counts, and choosing silence can be a boundary, not a failure. Keep practicing these small, clear asks until your body believes you're safe to be heard.Exhale. Keep what serves you; leave the rest. I'll be here again tomorrow.

Ten years into Food Heals, Allison Melody broadens the lens: from food as medicine to the health of our culture. In this deeply personal episode, Allison processes the news of a public assasination, her visceral grief as a daughter who lost her father, and the chilling implications for public figures, creators, podcasters, and anyone who speaks publicly. She traces how social media outrage, algorithmic incentives, and political extremism erode empathy and makes the case that love (not hate, not fear) is the only path to individual and collective healing. Along the way, she shares her family's story, why she started Food Heals, and how to protect your “information diet” the same way you protect your plate. Theme: Hate does not heal hate. Only love heals. Content note This episode contains discussion of murder, political violence, cancer, grief, social-media harassment, and deplatforming. In this episode you'll hear Why “the health of our nation depends on more than food” and what that means for free speech Allison's visceral reaction to the news and how it connects to losing both parents to cancer The attention economy: how algorithms reward outrage and dehumanization A practical “information diet” for your mind and nervous system Powerful messages from fellow creators about responding with active love (not more anger) A simple framework to shift your state: breath, music, gratitude, service A rallying call for creators: “A microphone is not a shield…the First Amendment does not make us bulletproof—but it should make us brave.” Key takeaways Your voice matters, even when it is inconvenient. Free speech is not about agreement, it is about human dignity and the right to speak without violence. Protect your mind like your body. Curate your inputs, fast from outrage, and refuse dehumanizing content, no matter the target. Gratitude is medicine. A daily “what's good?” practice shifts your state and ripples outward. Love is an action. Compassion, curiosity, and disciplined, justice-honoring love are stronger than hate. Join the conversation If this episode resonated, please rate and review the show and share it with someone who needs a dose of hope, sanilty and logic.
