Podcasts about Depletion

The Lindsay Clancy case has us thinking about the Traditional Chinese Medicine concept of Essence- what depletes it, what replenishes it, and how it is impacted by modern life and motherhood.  We talk about how closely spaced births, inadequate postpartum recovery, illness, and chronic overextension can deplete these reserves- and how nourishment, rest, hydration, and mindful use of our energy can help restore them. We also explore the importance of community and finding a sustainable balance between giving and receiving, depletion and replenishment. Ultimately, this conversation asks what might change if women treated conserving and replenishing their vitality as essential to lifelong health.

In this powerful episode, Dr. Cristina Castagnini sits down with Toni Curtis, the founder of Birthwise, to explore the profound loneliness and frustration that comes with being dismissed by the medical establishment. After suffering the tragic loss of her brother to a medical error and facing nearly two decades of "unexplained" infertility and chronic health struggles, Toni refused to accept the verdict that her body was a problem to be solved. Together, they discuss the transition from viewing the body as a collection of clinical parts to understanding it as a whole system requiring patience, curiosity, and somatic care. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt "small" in a doctor's office and is seeking a path toward reclaiming their autonomy and trusting their body's inherent wisdom.

Most nonprofit executive directors lose their strategic thinking time every week for a reason that has nothing to do with discipline: it is the only block on the calendar with no one waiting on the other end of it. In this micro-episode, Brooke Richie-Babbage explains why strategy loses to everything else on a CEO's week — every competing commitment carries a consequence for missing it, and unstructured thinking time carries none — and lays out three moves that make the strategic function structural instead of willpower-dependent. She also reframes executive fatigue as data rather than a character flaw: when a design cannot absorb organizational pressure, the leader absorbs it instead.Episode DescriptionThe finance committee meets on the fourteenth. Multiple active grants have reporting windows that don't line up. A program officer already has a call on the books. Every one of those has a person on the other end, and that — not its importance — is what makes it happen. Then there's the two hours blocked to think about the next three years. Nobody is waiting for that. So when something else needs the slot, it takes the slot.In this micro-episode, Brooke Richie-Babbage makes the case that this is a scoring problem, not a time management problem, and not a discipline problem either. Strategy is the only function in most growing nonprofits with no structure holding it up. Payroll has a calendar. Grants have portals and deadlines. Governance has bylaws. Strategy has the CEO — and that's the entire infrastructure. Listeners walk away understanding why guarding the block harder has already failed, and what to build instead.Key Questions AnsweredWhy does my strategic thinking time always get canceled?Is it a discipline problem if I can't protect time to think?Why do nonprofit executive directors struggle to do long-range planning?How do I make strategic time stick without relying on willpower?What is a Design Deficit in a nonprofit organization?Why does executive director burnout keep getting treated as a personal failing?What should a nonprofit CEO focus on during a week when they're already depleted?Is it key-person dependency if the whole strategy function runs through me?What You'll LearnWhy strategic time loses on the calendar every week — and why the mechanism is a missing consequence, not weak prioritization or poor time management.The three moves that make the strategic function structural — attaching thinking to a deadline that already exists, requiring one small written output per block, and clarifying decision rights so escalations stop eating the hours.A subtraction protocol for depleted weeks — how to identify the two or three decisions that actually change the shape of the next quarter, and what to do with everything else.Key TakeawaysStrategic time doesn't need more protection. It needs a consequence. Every strategic question a CEO is carrying sits upstream of a decision someone will eventually be waiting on. The work isn't to manufacture urgency — it's to find the deadline that already exists on the governance calendar and attach the thinking to it.Strategy is the only function in a growing nonprofit with no scaffolding. Payroll has a calendar, grants have portals, governance has bylaws, programs have staff and workplans. Clarity — the direction-setting, the deciding — runs on one person's unprotected calendar. That's a Design Deficit, and at $1M–$5M it's the most expensive one.Depletion is a reading on the gauge, not a verdict on the leader. Systems absorb pressure or people do. When a CEO is the absorber, exhaustion is telling them what the organization isn't carrying yet — which makes it diagnostic information, not evidence of inadequacy.The hours come back through decision rights, not willpower. Thinking time gets eaten by escalation: a director who copies the CEO to be safe, a small reallocation waiting on approval, a board chair calling about something the ops manager owns. As long as everything has a legitimate claim on those two hours, protecting them won't hold.Grinding through is how a structural problem stays a personal one. Pushing harder works, briefly. It also spends the one asset the organization can't replace — the CEO's judgment — and buys the design flaw another quarter of invisibility.FAQsWhat is a Design Deficit in a nonprofit organization?A Design Deficit is the gap between how an organization is structured and what its current size actually requires. Brooke uses the term for nonprofits whose systems were built for a smaller version of themselves and were never rebuilt as the budget, staff, and funder base grew.Why do nonprofit executive directors keep canceling their strategic thinking time?Because strategic time is the only block on the calendar with no one waiting on the other end. Brooke argues this is a scoring problem, not a discipline problem: every competing commitment carries a consequence for missing it, and unstructured thinking time carries none.How can a nonprofit CEO protect strategic time without relying on willpower?Attach the thinking to a deadline that already exists on the governance calendar, require each session to produce one small written output, and give that output a named recipient. Brooke adds that the hours only hold once decision rights are clarified so escalations stop claiming them.What is key-person dependency in a nonprofit, and how does it apply to strategy?Key-person dependency exists when a critical organizational function runs entirely through one individual. Brooke points out that boards flag this immediately when it applies to revenue, but rarely notice when the entire strategic function of a $2M organization depends on the CEO having one uninterrupted Thursday.What should a nonprofit leader do during a week when they are already depleted?Subtract rather than add. Brooke recommends identifying the two or three decisions that would change the shape of the next quarter if made badly or not at all, keeping only those, and assigning everything else a decision rule, a delegate, or a stated delay.Is executive director burnout a personal problem or a structural one?Brooke treats depletion as data rather than a character report. When a design cannot absorb organizational pressure, the leader absorbs it instead. The useful question is not how to push harder but what the depletion reveals the organization is not yet carrying on its own.Step-by-Step: Three Moves That Make the Strategic Function Strutural1. Attach it to a deadline that already exists. Strategic time needs a consequence, and the governance calendar is already full of them — the finance committee in six weeks, the renewal decision in October, the director-level hire that has to happen before the fiscal year turns. The block stops being "Thursday, nine to eleven, think" and becomes "Thursday, nine to eleven, the two funding scenarios for the finance committee on the fourteenth." It's the same hours, but now canceling costs something.2. Require one small output. Open-ended thinking time is easy to cancel because when it's skipped, nothing is visibly missing. Give every block one deliverable and keep it small: three options and what each one costs, or one decision written down with the reasoning underneath it. Not a forty-page plan — a page. This also does a second job. Institutional memory that currently lives entirely in the CEO's head starts moving into the organization, one written decision at a time.3. Give it an owner and an audience — then fix decision rights. Put a person on the other end: a deputy expecting the memo Friday, a board chair who knows the scenario is coming, a peer expecting the question that's been circling for months. Then address what actually eats the block, which is escalation. What can a director decide without the CEO, up to what threshold, and who do they go to instead? The hours come back through decision rights, not through discipline.For weeks when the tank is already empty: don't add anything — subtract by what's meaningful. Ask which two or three decisions this week, if made wrong or not at all, change the shape of the next quarter. Those get the CEO. Everything else gets a decision rule, a delegation, or an honest delay, stated out loud so it stops sitting as an open loop. Then name what the depletion is revealing in one sentence — I'm still the only person who can close a six-figure gift; my directors bring me problems, not recommendations — and treat that sentence as the redesign brief.Want to work together?

Ada explains how self-abandonment shows up specifically in dating (over-planning, over-texting, doing all the emotional labor) and marriage (trying to control your partner instead of trusting them), and introduces the most powerful reframe of the episode: resentment as a messenger, not an enemy, a signal that reveals exactly where you've abandoned your own needs.

This is a deeply practical conversation for any woman who feels like she's disappeared inside her own relationships.

Colonel Jeff McCausland, United States Army (Retired), discusses the critical depletion of United States missile stockpiles, particularly Patriot and THAAD systems, due to the intensifying war with Iran. He notes that these shortages might force a transition toward piloted bombing missions using heavy aircraft like the B-2 and B-52 for deep penetration. Regarding the Strait of Hormuz, McCausland highlights that Iran's ability to deploy sea mines and drones makes military reopening difficult. Turning to Ukraine, he predicts Vladimir Putin will escalate through mobilization rather than negotiation as both sides increasingly target food supplies in the Black Sea.

SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW.  8-4-2026.1900 ST. LAWRENCEColonel Jeff McCausland, United States Army (Retired), discusses the critical depletion of United States missile stockpiles, particularly Patriot and THAAD systems, due to the intensifying war with Iran. He notes that these shortages might force a transition toward piloted bombing missions using heavy aircraft like the B-2 and B-52 for deep penetration. Regarding the Strait of Hormuz, McCausland highlights that Iran's ability to deploy sea mines and drones makes military reopening difficult. Turning to Ukraine, he predicts Vladimir Putin will escalate through mobilization rather than negotiation as both sides increasingly target food supplies in the Black Sea. (1)Judy Dempsey, Senior Scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, describes a Europe struggling with record heat, wildfires, and critically low river levels that are hampering nuclear power and agriculture. She argues these patterns reflect a deteriorating climate requiring a global response. The conversation shifts to a massive migration incident where 60,000 young men attempted to enter a Spanish exclave from Morocco. Dempsey explains that this surge is being exploited by far-right parties across Europe, such as the AfD in Germany, who capitalize on voter dissatisfaction. She notes that despite bilateral labor agreements, the political fallout is fueling nationalism. (2)Joseph Sternberg, Editorial Board Member of the Wall Street Journal, examines the release of Dr. Anthony Fauci's pandemic-era diaries, which reveal a dichotomy between his private doubts and public pronouncements regarding COVID-19's origins. Sternberg suggests Fauci became pathologically obsessed with his media coverage, positioning himself as an antagonist to Donald Trump to maintain his "star" status. The discussion also covers the growing influence of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). Sternberg notes that young voters, disillusioned by the economy, are increasingly drawn to the DSA's radical, government-led solutions. He questions whether this movement can succeed in purple states. (3)Jonathan Schanzer, Executive Director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, discusses the alarming shortage of US defensive munitions needed to intercept Iranian threats. He notes that Iran, coached by Russia and China, is exploiting this crisis to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed and drive up energy prices. Schanzer also addresses the significant weakening of Hezbollah after sustained Israeli operations and the complexities of disarming Hamas in Gaza. He highlights that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu faces a political tightrope balancing military goals with international pressure. Finally, he observes the unraveling of Chinese-brokered agreements as Houthi threats against Saudi Arabia resurface. (4)Gregory Copley, Publisher of Defense & Foreign Affairs, analyzes global efforts to bypass the Strait of Hormuz, noting that Russia and China are seeking alternative trade corridors to undermine Washington's strategic influence. He suggests China is using current tensions to project American impotence before high-level diplomatic visits. Copley also discusses the "war on food" in the Black Sea, where blockades are forcing a diversification of global supplies. Turning to Ethiopia, he describes a brutal civil conflict involving ethnic factions and the use of Turkish drones against civilian targets. He concludes with the success of King Charles III at the Commonwealth Games. (5)Bill Roggio and Bridget Toomey of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies discuss the Houthis' re-entry into the regional war by declaring a maritime blockade against Saudi Arabia in the Red Sea. Roggio criticizes the Trumpadministration's lack of a forceful military response, arguing that two US destroyers are insufficient to secure vital waterways. Toomey explains that the Houthis use these attacks to re-establish domestic norms and pressure the global oil market. They note that while the Houthis operate independently, their actions align with Iranian goals to use control over maritime chokepoints as a strategic "nuclear weapon." (6)Andrea Stricker, Deputy Director at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, outlines the proliferation risks associated with a proposed US-Saudi nuclear cooperation agreement. She expresses concern over uranium enrichment on Saudi soil, which could enable a nuclear weapons pathway. Stricker warns that granting enrichment rights would destroy the "gold standard" for non-proliferation and likely trigger a nuclear arms race involving Turkey and Egypt. Although President Trump has added caveats regarding the Abraham Accords, Saudi Arabia has threatened to turn to China for technology. Stricker notes the deal faces a difficult 90-day congressional review starting in September. (7)Conrad Black, distinguished biographer and National Post columnist, discusses the "aberrant" trade tensions between the US and Canada following the imposition of tariffs based on allegations of forced labor in Chinese imports. Black argues these tariffs are a legal workaround for the Trump administration to bypass the Supreme Court by declaring a national emergency. He characterizes the policy as arbitrary and offensive, noting it has dampened cross-border tourism and led to retaliatory tariffs on items like hockey sticks. Despite the current friction, Black remains optimistic that the dispute will be resolved through negotiation because he believes President Trump fundamentally likes Canada. (8)

We often treat burnout as a personal failure when it is really a warning that our demands have exceeded our available time, energy, and support.Burnout prevention specialist Sophie Anderson shares five courageous habits that help us protect our energy before exhaustion takes over. She challenges us and helps us see how to practically get honest about our priorities, pause before automatically saying yes, create stronger technology boundaries, speak openly when our capacity is stretched, and make space for rest even when guilt shows up. Her perspective reminds us that capability and capacity are not the same, and that being able to do something does not always mean we have the energy or resources to take it on.By noticing the pressure we place on ourselves and making intentional changes, we can reduce overwhelm, support healthier teams, and lead with greater clarity and sustainability.Key Takeaways:Be Clear on Your Priorities:Explore how sorting what truly matters can reduce pressure and create greater focus.Say Maybe Before Saying Yes:Consider how pausing before committing can protect your time and prevent unnecessary overload.Implement Tech Boundaries:Discover how small changes to notifications and availability can reduce distraction and overwhelm.Speak Up About Overwhelm:Examine why honest conversations about capacity can strengthen support and reduce shame.Build in Rest and Recovery:Learn how making space for recovery can help you sustain your energy and leadership.Resources MentionedDownload your copy of the 5 Courageous Habits to Prevent Burnout for Leaders poster at https://www.sophieanderson.au/courageThe Inspire Your Team to Greatness assessment (the Courage Assessment) - In less than 10 minutes, find out where you're empowering and inadvertently kills productivity, and get a custom report that will tell you step by step what you need to have your team get more done.

Have you become so busy taking care of everyone else that you've forgotten how to take care of yourself? In this inspiring conversation, Colleen welcomes Cherie Ashana, author of The Sacred She Reset, to discuss why so many moms feel depleted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from themselves during midlife. Cherie shares her own story of burnout and how it led her to create a framework for helping women move from exhaustion to radiance. Together, they explore how suppressed anger often carries an important message, why self-care is not selfish but essential, and how reconnecting with yourself ultimately benefits your entire family. They also offer practical tools—including breathwork, journaling, and creating daily moments of stillness—to help moms reset their nervous systems and rediscover joy. Three Key Takeaways 1. Your anger may be pointing to unmet needs. Many moms spend years putting everyone else first. Over time, unexpressed needs can build into frustration or rage. Instead of judging your anger, get curious about what it's trying to tell you. 2. Small daily resets restore your nervous system. Even five minutes each morning to breathe, place your hands over your heart, and ask yourself, "How am I feeling today?" can calm your nervous system and help you approach your family from a place of peace rather than depletion. 3. When moms become radiant, everyone benefits. Taking care of yourself isn't selfish—it's one of the greatest gifts you can give your children. The joy, peace, and healthy boundaries you cultivate become the model your family experiences every day.

Depression is a state of consciousness that affects around one in 5 people. It is marked by some consistent attributes, feelings of low mood, suicidal thoughts, loss of interest in life’s joys, diminished libido, emotional numbness, excessive crying, unworthiness, persistent negative thoughts, poor focus, creative blocks, isolation, and, for some, anxiety. These symptoms often mirror the spiritual depletion described by mystics. Our energy field can be exalted and strong, sparkly and shining with inner light, giving us a bounce in our step and joy in our heart that doesn’t come from what’s happening around us but is like an inner wellspring of positivity. Conversely if our spirit is diminished, dulled, worn down, the energy centres will not be able to do their jobs properly and the symptoms of depression can manifest. In this episode of Mystery School, Shakti Durga discusses Ignite Your Spirit, a healing modality that has helped thousands alleviate depression. Many experience complete symptom relief, while others find it less severe and limiting. This unique therapy focuses on the spirit and soul to create tangible, real-world change, tailored to your personal beliefs, regardless of faith.

The weeks after birth can have a profound impact on a mother's physical recovery, mental health, relationship, and long-term wellbeing. Yet many women spend months preparing for birth and very little time preparing for what comes next. In this episode, I am talking to Melissa Gallagher, co-founder and CEO of AlmaCare, about the realities of postpartum recovery and what mothers need to thrive during the fourth trimester. We discuss sleep deprivation, maternal mental health, recovery, partner communication, and the practical supports that can make a meaningful difference during this life-changing transition. Melissa and I talk about: The physical and emotional changes many mothers are unprepared for after birth What a protected fourth trimester can look like in practice The benefits of rest, nourishment, and recovery during the first weeks after birth Why sleep is one of the most important factors for maternal mental health How sleep deprivation can affect mood, resilience, and recovery Why mothers were never meant to navigate postpartum alone How cultural traditions have long prioritized recovery after birth The importance of having clear conversations with your partner before baby arrives Practical ways partners can support recovery and infant feeding goals The role of overnight support, lactation consultants, and in-home care How employers are beginning to support families during the fourth trimester What mothers can do if they are already in postpartum and struggling The three pillars Melissa believes every mother should focus on after birth: feeding baby, recovering physically, and protecting mental health Melissa Gallagher is the Co-Founder and CEO of Alma Care, Canada's first holistic, in-home postnatal care platform. Alma Care supports families after birth through personalized care delivered by registered nurses, certified doulas, lactation consultants, and maternal health experts. With more than a decade of experience in health, wellness, and consumer brands, Melissa is also a mother who experienced the postpartum care gap firsthand.

Parenting burnout often feels like constant overwhelm, reactivity, and exhaustion that sleep alone does not fix. What if the issue is not just stress, but the state of your nervous system itself? In this episode, I am talking to Irin Rubin, CEO and co-founder of MamaZen, about how nervous system regulation shapes parenting, emotional wellbeing, and family dynamics. We discuss mindfulness, hypnotherapy, CBT, and how emotional regulation tools can support both parents and children. Irin and I chat about: • Why nervous system regulation is foundational to managing parenting stress and burnout• How chronic stress states can affect emotional reactivity, patience, and daily functioning• Why parenting challenges shift with each developmental stage and cannot be solved with “scripts” alone• How emotional regulation impacts both parent behaviour and children's responses• The importance of modelling calm behaviour for children to learn regulation skills• Why many parents experience burnout, anxiety, or depletion without recognising nervous system dysregulation• How mindfulness, hypnotherapy, and CBT are used together in the MamaZen approach• What hypnosis is and how it naturally occurs in everyday life (such as driving or falling asleep)• How guided sessions can help bring the brain into a calm, regulated state more quickly• Why practising regulation consistently helps retrain stress responses over time (neuroplasticity)• How co-regulation between parent and child can reduce escalation during emotional moments• Why emotional regulation skills are framed as lifelong tools that support both parents and children Irin Rubin is the CEO and co-founder of MamaZen, a digital platform designed to support parents with emotional regulation and nervous system tools. She works in the space of maternal mental health, burnout recovery, and stress management through guided mindfulness, hypnotherapy, and cognitive behavioural techniques.

"It's totally her minerals, it's not her."— Dori MartinThere's a particular kind of tired that doesn't go away with sleep — the brain fog, the inflammation, the mood swings that make you feel like a stranger in your own body. For years, Dori Martin thought that was just what happens to women in midlife. It wasn't, and what she discovered instead is the heart of this conversation.Dori Martin is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner who uses Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis to help midlife women understand what's really going on beneath the surface. We talk about the decade of caretaking that led to her own burnout — from a divorce with two small children, to getting engaged to a man given a terminal diagnosis, to watching her own labs come back worse than his. Dori explains why mineral depletion is so often mistaken for a personality problem, and what it actually takes for a woman's body to feel safe enough to rest and recover.If you've ever felt exhausted, inflamed, or like your moods aren't quite your own — this one will feel like a mirror.

Sal Assante delivers raw commentary on the week's biggest stories. The sudden passing of Senator Lindsey Graham sparks major questions about his replacement and the future of hawkish foreign policy in Washington. Meanwhile, a controversial new bill aims to formally integrate U.S. and Israeli military technology — raising serious concerns about sovereignty, endless wars, and America's depleting military supplies. Sal also addresses the ongoing Middle East conflicts, the choking Canadian wildfires affecting air quality across the border, and vents his frustrations with the Yankees' current roster and trade rumors.

Your body's story is bigger than you. The nutrient status of the woman who birthed you is stitched into your cellular fabric, and that line of mothers stretches far back in time with each woman's story affecting the next.  A more expansive and feminine framework for healthcare is quietly being built by women and mothers delving into minerals, mitochondria, and the metabolic imprint of the motherline. Let's share our stories and help one another bring healing and clarity to this tender, sometimes overwhelming, and very personal topic. While many of us are raising children whose bodies carry the cumulative effects of compounding generational nutrient depletion, it is never too late to begin building a legacy of nourishment that can ripple forward through future generations.

Your body contains approximately 100 different types of minerals, but most people are deficient or imbalanced, leading to symptoms like brain fog, lethargy, irregular sleep patterns, and even reduced sex drive. Yet, mineral supplementation remains neglected – mostly because people don't realize how easy it is.Finally, someone is talking about mineral replenishment!Containing each of the minerals the body needs for optimal function, BEAM Minerals restores cellular energy, allowing the body to gain and maintain healthy balance.On this episode we spend some time with a special guest, who has been coined, The Mineral Geek.Caroline Alan is a health survivor, mineral expert, and educator on a mission to redefine how we think about cellular health.

In this 100th episode of Unboxable, Somatic Therapist Aléna Turley reflects on the power of deep, body-held belief that defies logic, rational thinking, or even medical science. She shares her four-year journey to conceiving and carrying her third child—after pregnancy loss, a difficult second pregnancy, multiple miscarriages, intense life pressure, alternative support, and discouraging fertility assessments including IVF that was halted due to low eggs. Following a Whole30 wholefood reset and a move overseas to Bath, England, she conceived and experienced a largely low-intervention, empowered birth supported by a doula, midwives, and birth education, and community breastfeeding support. This episode is all about cultivating trust in the body as an intimate companion, seeking support, resting and replenishing, and learning the difference between distraction and an aligned, life-affirming path.

Do you ever reach the end of the day feeling completely drained, with nothing left for the people and things that matter most?In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson reframes depletion as a capacity problem, not a discipline or time management problem. Building on part one, she looks at Covey's important and urgent matrix and the four Ds, not as productivity hacks but as nervous system tools. You'll learn why urgency keeps your body in a constant threat response, why the important but not urgent quadrant is where you actually regulate, and how to match the right tool to what's happening in your body.We'll explore:Depletion is a capacity problem, not a time management problem.Urgency triggers a threat response and quietly burns your energy.The important but not urgent quadrant is where your nervous system regulates.The four Ds work as regulation tools, not just decision making shortcuts.Delegation can feel unsafe because it is a nervous system pattern.Every framework builds in a pause so your next move is a choice, not a reaction.LINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYMIDLIFE NERVOUS SYSTEM REWIRE COMMUNITY

Send us Fan MailWe break down depletion allowance, the oil and gas version of depreciation, and show how it can reduce taxes on production income without reducing your actual cash distributions. We also explain why many high-income investors use depletion to improve after-tax yield while keeping an eye on the rules and the real-world limits. • depletion allowance defined as a deduction tied to shrinking natural resources • why depletion can increase after-tax cash flow through paper losses • cost depletion basics using units produced and remaining reserves • percentage depletion explained as a revenue-based formula • why percentage depletion can continue beyond original investment • key limitations in loss years plus rolling unused depletion forward • working interest versus royalty interest as different investing paths • what investors see on a K-1 and where it lands on the 1040 • IDC versus depletion, upfront deduction versus ongoing deduction • example math showing why the effective tax benefit can exceed 15% of cash received • combining depletion with broader tax planning like real estate losses, charitable planning, cost segregation, Roth timing, and state planning If you're interested, you can go to https://www.prosperlcpa.com/apply to learn more. 

What happens when the career you've worked so hard to build no longer energizes you? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Bela Shah, a former attorney and ICF-certified coach. Bela shares how feelings of disconnection, burnout, and a lack of alignment ultimately led her to leave a successful legal career and step into coaching. Drawing on her experiences as a first-generation South Asian immigrant, meditation practitioner, and leadership mentor, Bela offers a powerful perspective on self-trust, purpose, and navigating major life transitions.  This conversation is a reminder that leadership begins within and that sometimes the greatest act of courage is trusting yourself enough to create a new path.   What You Will Learn: How to recognize when your work is no longer energizing you. Why self-trust is the foundation of authentic leadership. The signs that may indicate it's time to leave a career that no longer aligns with your values. How small and big leaps of faith contribute to meaningful life transitions. Why rest, reflection, and pauses are essential for making aligned decisions. How meditation and mindfulness can support personal and professional growth. The connection between perfectionism, self-doubt, and the feeling of "not enough." Why community and support systems are critical during periods of change. How coaching helps individuals uncover their own wisdom and insights. The importance of moving from self-sacrifice to self-trust in leadership.   Connect with Bela Shah Wisdom Leadership https://www.wisdomleadership.com/ Connect with Wickedly Smart Women® Wickedly Smart Women Wickedly Smart Women on X Wickedly Smart Women on Instagram Wickedly Smart Women Facebook Community Wickedly Smart Women Store on TeePublic [5X Award-Winning Book] Wickedly Smart Women: Trusting Intuition, Taking Action, Transforming Worlds Email: listeners@wickedlysmartwomen.com

Have you ever been so deep in it that you didn't even realise you were in it? That was me with postpartum depletion. I didn't have the language for it. I just knew I was tired in a way sleep wasn't fixing, and I was holding it all together on the outside while quietly running on empty underneath. And here's what I've come to understand. This is not just a postpartum thing. This is an ambitious woman thing. So many of us have been pouring out for years and calling it normal.In this episode I'm sharing what that season taught me. Five nuggets of wisdom I wish I'd known sooner. We talk about the truth no one tells you about the basics, why the three-hour morning routine is a fantasy in a depleted season, what to actually do when "sleep when the baby sleeps" isn't an option, and why being deeply ambitious and deeply well were never meant to be opposites. This one is for the new mama. It is for the mother whose baby is now ten and still hasn't recovered. And it is for the ambitious woman who isn't a mother at all but knows exactly what it feels like to give everything and have nothing left for herself.Join ICONIC Mastermind: www.melissaambrosini.com/iconicHead to www.melissaambrosini.com/689 for the show notes.Join my weekly newsletter: www.melissaambrosini.com/newsletterGet my FREE ZenTone Meditation: www.melissaambrosini.com/zentoneFollow me on Instagram: @melissaambrosini Hosted on Acast.

NAD is the molecule in every cell that powers your energy — and there's a kind of exhaustion, the kind a good night's sleep and a weekend off can't fix, that comes from running low on it. If you're a woman in your 40s, 50s, or 60s caring for aging parents while raising kids and running a career — the sandwich generation — that depletion is real, and it's happening at the cellular level. In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf sits down with Mona Rosene, MS, RD, Global Director of Scientific Affairs at Niagen Bioscience, to explore NAD — the coenzyme that powers your mitochondria and fuels over 500 metabolic processes. NAD drops roughly 65% between the ages of 30 and 70, and chronic stress, menopause, poor sleep, and illness deplete it even faster. Mona explains what that means for your energy, brain fog, hormones, and inflammation — and what you can actually do about it.

What if you didn't have to please everyone? Good news is... you don't.  High achieving moms often fall into the people pleaser trap, but carrying the mental load of everyone else's expectations creates a "gross energy" of resentment that actually repels abundance. So we are diving into the power of mindful boundaries and how to transition from depletion to reciprocal energy.  Push play to learn how to speak your truth and create the grounded, solid energy that money loves to be around!   PS.

New to the show? Start Here: https://breakingupwithbingeeating.transistor.fm/start-herePick the listening path that fits what you're dealing with right now.Show Notes: In this episode, Georgie gives you a practical “urge map” to answer the question that matters in real life: what kind of urge is this? Because the same pantry moment can come from very different mechanisms—and if you use the wrong tool, it's easy to assume you “did it wrong” when you were simply solving the wrong problem. The core skill is matching the tool to the mechanism.You'll learn five common urge types and what each one actually needs: the Low-Fuel urge (under-fueling—food that counts), the Depletion urge (low capacity—less load and a soft landing), the Pain Relief urge (emotional or physical discomfort—soothing and often connection), the Scarcity/Rebellion urge (restriction and “I can't” energy—a believable yes and permission with structure), and the Autopilot urge (cue chains—pattern interruption, not self-criticism). You'll also get a quick five-question check-in to identify what's driving the urge in the moment, plus concrete examples of “permission with structure” and simple ways to break an evening cue chain.Try this week: Pick your most common urge type and run one experiment for seven days—data, not a test. (Afternoon anchor snack; a 10-minute downshift after dinner; a two-word feeling label + one moment of contact; a planned “yes” with structure; or breaking one link in your autopilot routine.)Coming next: Why urges can feel so persuasive even when the eating isn't that enjoyable—wanting vs liking.

Indifference & Depletion

Last week we identified why practitioners deplete: two types of energetic bleed. Today we uncover the complete energetically structural solution that makes practitioner depletion physically impossible.  Whether you're working with Reiki, Prana, Earth, Angelic energy or other as a practitioner. 5 THINGS YOU'LL DISCOVER BY THE END OFLISTENING IN:>Why the hollow bone is the complete structural solution to energetic depletion (not protection rituals or cleansing practices) – in theory V practise >The three-point sacred triangle that makes the hollow bone state actually felt versus intellectually understood – what makes embodying this state a felt reality >Why Hollow Bone = ethical practise – moving away from practitioners as “God”, losing personal power to overthinking & doubting ability, putting to bed statements like “you can't help others heal until you're fully healed yourself”>In what way Hollow Bone dissolves permission culture – shifting away from the idea that direct Spiritual authority needs to be earned or validated.>Anchoring energy work in trust – a practical exercise supporting you to identify opportunities to embody internal V external authority.Spirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/Free community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/Free workshop: https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reiki/My free updates straight to your inbox: https://reiki-redefined.kit.com/6629991732You'll find me most on Tiktok @reikiredefined

Still exhausted months after baby? Can't figure out why you're not recovering? You're probably not depleted from being a bad mom — you're depleted because no one told you the truth about postpartum nutrient loss.

In this week's episode of Growing Gardeners, we're talking about something so many gardeners — and women — are experiencing right now: Depletion. If your garden suddenly looks tired…if the leaves are damaged…if flowers are slowing down…if pests seem to be appearing out of nowhere… you are not alone. In This Episode You'll Learn Why stressed plants attract problems How cold weather and rain stress are still affecting gardens weeks later What “bottom of the bucket pests” really mean Why May is the season of nourishment instead of panic The emotional connection between exhausted gardens and exhausted women How gardening teaches us the importance of replenishment This episode is also a gentle Mother's Day reminder: Living things require nourishment. Healthy gardens are not built through pressure and perfection.They are built through consistent care, nourishment, and all the things we can't see. Maybe healthy women are too.

In this episode of Not Your Mother's Menopause, Dr. Fiona Lovely welcomes back Caroline Alan, co-founder of BEAM Minerals and author of the upcoming book "The Mineral Reset". Caroline, known affectionately as "The Mineral Geek," shares her personal healing journey from debilitating gut inflammation, adrenal fatigue, and chronic infections to vibrant health—all through the power of plant-based humic and fulvic minerals. She explains why minerals are the structural foundation of the human body and the essential fuel for cellular energy production. Listeners will learn why modern farming practices have left soil severely depleted, making it impossible to obtain necessary minerals from food alone. Caroline breaks down the remarkable roles of humic acid as nature's janitor for detoxification and fulvic acid as nature's cellular delivery system—the only molecule on earth that can change its polarity to drop nutrients directly into cells. Dr. Lovely and Caroline explore why perimenopause symptoms like sleep disturbances, mood swings, and brain fog often mirror mineral deficiency symptoms, and how replenishing minerals can help women navigate this transition with greater ease. Episode Highlights: - Why 97 percent of people show multiple mineral deficiencies - The difference between hydration and irrigation—and why salt-based electrolyte products may backfire - How humic and fulvic work together to deliver minerals into cells while removing toxins Tune in to discover why tending your own internal fire with mineral replenishment might be the simplest and most profound shift you make for your health.

Jeff Strong worked nearly 30 years in the consumer products industry as a senior executive at Procter & Gamble and global president and chief customer officer at Johnson & Johnson. He then taught in the Marriott School of Business at Brigham Young University and worked as an advisor to the Church before serving as a mission leader in the Arkansas Bentonville Mission. Jeff has since spent several years doing research on why people are leaving the Church. He recently published the book Torn: Why People We Love Are Leaving the Church and What We Can Learn from Them. Jeff lives in Midway, Utah, and stays busy with a little lavender farm, some business consulting, and enjoying family.

Personal Connection: Jeff shares his personal journey of grappling with his son’s disaffiliation, highlighting the emotional impact and the need for a deeper understanding of why individuals leave the church. Research Findings: Jeff’s research indicates that approximately 40% of active members have disaffiliated since 2000, with various reasons categorized into “waves,” including lifestyle challenges and deeper faith crises. Cultural Dynamics: The discussion emphasizes the importance of recognizing the cultural pressures within the church that may lead to feelings of depletion rather than spiritual fulfillment for some members. Engagement vs. Disaffiliation: While many active members report strong engagement and purpose, a significant portion of young adults are less affiliated with organized religion, indicating a complex relationship with faith. Leadership Applications Fostering Understanding: Leaders can benefit from understanding the reasons behind disaffiliation to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for those struggling with their faith. Encouraging Open Dialogue: By promoting open conversations about faith challenges, leaders can help bridge the gap between those who feel fulfilled in their faith and those who are struggling. Addressing Cultural Pressures: Leaders should be aware of the cultural dynamics that may lead to feelings of depletion among members and work to create a more nurturing and understanding community that supports individual spiritual journeys.

Pope Leo XIV's first Easter message, where he called for global peace amidst conflicts like the Russia-Ukraine war and the US-Israeli war on Iran. The "messy" irony lies in the transition from a solemn papal address on world "ravaged by wars" to the interpersonal "messiness" and psychological pathology discussed in the following segments.   Guarding the Reservoir: Physical & Emotional Rebalancing 1. The Professional Martyr: Recognizing the Bait Decoding Passive-Aggression: Analyzing the "I'd love to just come float" comment. Recognizing it as a "loaded" statement meant to trigger guilt about your success, your pool, and your upcoming retirement. The Approval Trap: Acknowledging that they don't approve of your expenditures (pool resurfacing/safety) and why you no longer need their "stamp of approval" on your financial freedom. Protecting Your Space: Understanding that their inability to relax is her burden, not a flaw in your hospitality. You aren't "pulling her in" anymore; the pool is closed, and so is the door to her drama. 2. Healing from Past Emotional "Inflammation." The DC & Birthday Lessons: Reflecting on past vacations and birthdays ruined by a professional martyr The "Emergency" Pattern: The martyr's lack of planning or refusal to make hard choices became your emergency. Breaking the Cycle: Declaring that early retirement and your "new" life will not be a staging ground for their crisis-management. 3. The Physical Toll: Menopause & The Electrolyte Crash The Hormone Shift: Discussing the transition off HRT and the reality of "Black Girl Vitamins"—they help, but the body's chemistry is still in flux. The Sweetwater Incident: A deep dive into the "Full Body Crash." The danger of severe night sweats leading to "free water" loss and electrolyte depletion. The symptoms: Weakness in hands, knee pain, and full-body aches that feel like a setback in the anti-inflammatory journey. The Rebalancing Window: Acknowledging that it took 24+ hours to recover, highlighting how much more fragile our baseline is during hormonal shifts. 4. Lessons for the "Solo RV" Life Logistics vs. Physical Ability: The difficulty of managing hookups and setup when your body is depleted. The New "Pre-Flight" Checklist: * Prioritizing hydration protocols (Liquid IV, electrolyte powders) before the sweat starts. The necessity of organization: An unorganized RV + a depleted body = a dangerous combination. Planning for Weakness: Admitting that "muscle-ing through" isn't a strategy anymore; planning for physical conservation is. 5. Closing Thought: The Anti-Inflammatory Mindset Internal & External Peace: You can't heal systemic inflammation if you are constantly triggered by family or physically dehydrated. The Goal: A resurfaced pool deck, a safe home, a retirement free of guilt, and a body that is properly fueled for the road ahead. Harrison Bay Mantra: "My peace is non-negotiable, my signal is low, and my hydration is high." Protecting from mental depletion and financial Depletion, the scams of life: Just like you are setting boundaries with your sister by turning off your Wi-Fi calling at Harrison Bay, your listeners need to set "Financial Boundaries." Rule #1: No federal agent will ever come to your house for a "cash pickup." Rule #2: If they tell you to lie to your bank teller, they are 100% a criminal. I'm heading to Harrison Bay to get away from the noise, but the 'noise' isn't just family drama—it's these high-tech predators. Whether it's a martyr sister trying to steal your joy or a scammer trying to steal your retirement, the solution is the same: Disconnect. Verify. Protect your peace."
