Difficult times are coming. You Need To Be Turned On By Difficulty!
Providing Medical Care During Civil Unrest 1. Opening Brief introduction of the episode Define civil unrest contexts: Protests Riots Mass demonstrations Politically charged gatherings Why medical care becomes complicated in these environments: EMS access delays Crowd density Law enforcement operations Environmental hazards Emphasize guiding principles: Personal safety first Situational awareness Know your limits 2. Understanding the Operational Environment What makes civil unrest medically unique Unpredictable crowd movement Law enforcement presence and tactics Noise, confusion, and sensory overload Limited ambulance access Common operational constraints Blocked streets Limited lighting Communication disruption Delayed EMS response Situational awareness basics Know entry and exit routes Stay on the edge of crowds Avoid getting boxed in 3. The Most Common Injuries Seen in Civil Unrest Blunt Trauma Common causes: Falls Being pushed or trampled Baton strikes Thrown objects These injuries can range from minor bruising to serious head injury or internal bleeding. What to look for Pain or swelling Deformity suggesting fracture Difficulty moving a limb Head injury symptoms: Confusion Vomiting Severe headache Loss of consciousness Basic treatment Move the person out of the crowd if possible Apply ice or cold pack if available Immobilize injured limbs with a sling or improvised splint For suspected head injury, keep the person still and monitor mental status If symptoms worsen (confusion, vomiting, severe pain), they need EMS evaluation Key reminder for listeners Blunt trauma in chaotic environments often gets ignored — but head injuries and internal bleeding can worsen over time. Lacerations Common causes: Broken glass Debris Improvised projectiles What to look for External bleeding Deep cuts with visible tissue Embedded debris Bleeding that soaks through clothing Basic treatment Put on gloves if available Apply direct pressure with gauze or cloth If bleeding continues, use a compression bandage For severe extremity bleeding, apply a tourniquet Cover the wound with a clean dressing Additional considerations Do not remove deeply embedded objects If the wound is large or continues bleeding, the patient needs hospital care Key reminder The vast majority of life-threatening bleeding can be controlled withpressure and time. Respiratory Irritants Common exposures: Tear gas (CS) Pepper spray (OC) Smoke from fires These agents cause severe irritation but are usually temporary. Common symptoms Burning eyes Tearing Skin irritation Coughing Shortness of breath Disorientation Basic treatment Move the person to fresh air immediately Encourage slow breathing Flush eyes with copious water or saline Remove contaminated clothing if heavily exposed Avoid rubbing eyes or skin Important notes Oils, lotions, or milk can sometimes trap irritants against the skin Most symptoms improve within 15–30 minutes once exposure stops Red flags requiring EMS Severe breathing difficulty Asthma attack Persistent confusion Heat and Dehydration Common causes: Long hours outdoors Heavy clothing or gear Stress and exertion Limited access to water Symptoms Dizziness Weakness Headache Nausea Muscle cramps Heavy sweating Basic treatment Move the person out of the sun or crowd Have them sit or lie down Provide water or electrolyte fluids Use cooling measures Shade Wet cloths Fanning Red flags for heat stroke Confusion Collapse Hot dry skin Seizures Heat stroke is a medical emergency. Psychological Stress Reactions Crowd environments can trigger intense emotional reactions. Common presentations: Panic attacks Hyperventilation Acute anxiety Disorientation What to look for Rapid breathing Shaking Crying Feeling unable to escape the crowd Basic treatment Move the person to a quieter, safer space Speak calmly and reassure them Encourage slow breathing Inhale through the nose Exhale slowly through the mouth Help them regain orientation and control Often, simply removing the person from the chaotic environment dramatically improves symptoms. “The key point here is that most injuries in these environments are not exotic trauma cases. They're the same things EMS treats every day — bleeding, falls, heat illness, and panic — but they're happening in a chaotic environment where help may take longer to arrive.” 4. Basic Medical Kit for High-Risk Gatherings Emphasize compact, discreet gear. Essentials Nitrile gloves Gauze / compression bandage Tourniquet Saline or water for eye irrigation Simple airway mask Electrolyte packets Small flashlight Optional but useful Chest seal Trauma shears Space blanket Eye protection Basic first aid medications Practical considerations Avoid large visible medical packs Keep supplies distributed in pockets Maintain mobility 5. Working Around Law Enforcement and EMS Key points: Identify yourself if providing care Follow lawful orders immediately Avoid interfering with police operations Know when to disengage Discuss that: EMS may stage until scenes are secure Civilian aid may be temporary bridging care 6. When NOT to Intervene (Important Ethical Section) Situations where civilians should not attempt treatment: Active violence nearby Crowd crush risk Presence of chemical agents without protection Situations beyond training Reinforce: “You cannot help anyone if you become a patient.” 7. Closing Reinforce three takeaways: Personal safety comes first Simple medical skills save lives Preparation matters Invite listeners to: Get first aid training Carry basic medical kits Learn situational awareness Medical Gear Outfitters Use Code CIVILIANMEDICAL for 10% off Skinny Medic - @SkinnyMedic | @skinny_medic | Medical Gear Outfitters Bobby - @rstantontx | @bobby_wales

Nir Eyal: Beyond Belief Nir Eyal writes, consults, and teaches about the intersection of psychology, technology, and business. He is the author of two bestselling books, Hooked and Indistractable, selling more than a million copies and translated in over 30 languages. He is the author of the new book, Beyond Belief: The Science-Backed Way to Stop Limiting Yourself and Achieve Breakthrough Results (Amazon, Bookshop)*. Most of us recognize that a huge part of what motivates us – or not – is our own thinking. In this conversation, Nir and I explore where our beliefs get in the way and how we can align them just a bit to help us move forward. Key Points A sentence starting with “I am…” can be among the most dangerous in any language. Often, our beliefs limit us. Belief is the foundation of the motivation triangle that includes benefit and behavior. Yet, we often overlook beliefs. Curt Richter's study of rats in the 1950s shows how an animal's belief system can massively influence its behavior. The real question isn't “Is this belief true?” but rather, “Does this belief serve me?” You can choose beliefs based on usefulness, not certainty. Difficulty may mean we are not cut out for something, but it might also be evidence of growth. Too often, we quit too soon. Progress comes from consistent action, not perfect plans.

JOIN THE 7 DAY RESET - ▶️ www.therebuiltman.com/7dayreset Something strange is happening to a growing number of men. They can watch porn and feel instant arousal… But when they're with a real woman — their wife or girlfriend — the excitement isn't the same. The spark feels weaker. Sometimes they even struggle to perform. And it leaves many men asking questions they're almost afraid to say out loud: • "Why am I not attracted to my wife anymore?" • "Why do I need porn to get turned on?" • "Why can't I stay aroused during sex?" In this episode, Coach Frank Rich breaks down the uncomfortable truth most men don't realize: Porn doesn't just affect your habits. It rewires your attraction. Through the lens of neuroscience, psychology, and real-world experience coaching thousands of men, Frank explains how modern pornography is training the male brain to crave endless novelty — and why this can make real intimacy feel less exciting over time. But there's good news. The brain can heal. And when men remove porn and rebuild their lives with purpose, discipline, and brotherhood, attraction and intimacy can return stronger than ever. If you've ever wondered why porn seems more stimulating than real life — this episode will give you answers. In This Episode You'll Learn • Why porn can make real women start to feel "boring" • How dopamine desensitization impacts attraction and arousal • The role novelty overload plays in modern porn consumption • What the Coolidge Effect is and how porn exploits it • How porn can contribute to porn-induced erectile dysfunction (PIED) • Why many men lose desire for real intimacy after years of porn use • How the brain can rewire itself when porn is removed • The first steps men can take to begin rebuilding their attraction and sexual health The Truth Every Man Needs to Understand Your brain wasn't designed for unlimited novelty. But porn provides exactly that — endless stimulation, endless variety, and instant dopamine. Over time, this can train your brain to respond more strongly to screens than to real connection. The result? Men start experiencing: • Reduced attraction to their partner • Difficulty becoming aroused during sex • Performance issues or erectile dysfunction • A growing dependence on porn for stimulation But the good news is that your brain is capable of change. Through a process called neuroplasticity, the brain can recover sensitivity, restore attraction, and rebuild healthy intimacy. And it starts with removing the stimulus that's hijacking your brain in the first place. Start Your Reset Today If you're ready to begin rewiring your brain and rebuilding control over your life, start with the free 7 Day Porn Reset. Thousands of men have used this challenge as the first step toward reclaiming their focus, their discipline, and their relationships.
In this episode of Thriving in Tandem™, Robert and Kay Lee unpack three of the most common reasons businesses struggle — drawn from their own entrepreneurial journey, client experience, and research from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. If you're a married entrepreneur feeling financial pressure or team tension, this conversation will hit home. 1. Cash Flow Problems (Not a Sales Problem) Contrary to popular belief, most struggling businesses don't fail because of poor marketing or low sales. They fail because of cash flow mismanagement. The Chamber of Commerce research highlights: Cash flow issues Lack of capital Poor management Human capital challenges Notice what's missing? Marketing and sales. Profit Doesn't Equal Cash Many business owners rely solely on their Profit & Loss statement. The problem? Most P&Ls are set up on an accrual basis, meaning revenue is recorded when invoiced — not when cash hits your bank account. You might show: $100,000 in revenue $15,000 in profit But still feel broke. Why? Because: Clients haven't paid yet (accounts receivable lag) You're paying down loans or credit cards (liabilities don't show on P&L) Merchant fees and interest are draining cash You're behind on invoicing The Danger of "Let's Just Increase Sales" Growing sales without fixing cash flow can actually accelerate failure. If: You must pay for materials upfront You don't get paid until delivery You rely on lines of credit to float expenses Then doubling sales can double your cash stress. Before scaling, make sure your cash systems can sustain growth. Action Step: Review your P&L, cash flow statement, and balance sheet together — not in isolation. If this isn't your strength, bring in a qualified financial advisor who understands small business cash flow, not just bookkeeping. 2. Lack of Capital (Often a Symptom, Not the Root Cause) Running out of money is usually the result of poor cash flow management. Many businesses don't collapse because demand disappears. They collapse because: They underestimated startup costs They overspent during growth They relied too heavily on debt They didn't manage receivables aggressively At the end of the day, businesses fail when they run out of cash — not necessarily customers. 3. Human Capital Challenges (Hiring, Training, Retention) The third major struggle? People. Common issues include: Difficulty finding quality team members High turnover Weak onboarding Lack of ongoing development Start with Smart Hiring Consider: Contract-to-hire models 90-day trial periods Clear role definitions and performance metrics This reduces risk and gives both sides time to evaluate fit. Training Is Not One-and-Done Initial onboarding isn't enough. The first year is critical. Even experienced hires require: Clear expectations Regular feedback Continued development Intentional culture building Hiring and firing repeatedly is expensive — financially and emotionally. Investing in people development is not optional if you want sustainable growth. The Bigger Picture Most business struggles boil down to: Poor cash flow management Running out of capital Weak people systems And here's the reality for married entrepreneurs: When business stress rises, it spills into your marriage. That's why mastering financial systems and building a healthy team isn't just about profit — it's about protecting your home life. If this episode resonated with you, share it with another married entrepreneur who needs to hear it. Want to live a better balanced life and win in marriage AND business at the same time?

According to a study published in Current Psychiatry Reports in 2000, 10% - 15% of women are affected by anorgasmia, the inability to reach orgasm.

An integral part of running every podiatry clinic is the difficulties that arise. Whether small of big these actually present an opportunity to you to make change in your clinic for the better. In Episode 183 of The Podiatry Business Podcast Lorcan talks about how this subtle mindset shift can help transform your business.
Hiking effort doesn't scale smoothly with slope. It shifts across physiological regimes driven by muscle contraction type, aerobic limits, gait mechanics, and safety regulation. In this episode, we explain why mild downhill can be most efficient, why steep grades impose nonlinear time penalties, and how modeling human regulation improves trip planning accuracy.

🧭 REBEL Rundown 🔑Key Points Try the coffee nap! Where you combine caffeine and a 30-minute nap to then have that boost energy and alertness by the time it kicks in.💤 Sleep isn’t optional—it’s crucial for memory, mood regulation, and physical recovery. It is fundamentally different from rest❌ Replacing sleep with caffeine isn’t effective and can have negative health impacts. Make getting enough sleep a priority🌞 Sunlight exposure is important for maintaining circadian rhythms and sleep quality. This applies even if you work as a nocturnist💡 Creating a personalized sleep system enhances quality and consistency. It gives you back control of a schedule that you may feel like is out of your hands.🧩 If you’ve tried these strategies and you’re still struggling, consider true sleep pathology (insomnia, shift work disorder, sleep apnea) and get help—this is not a “be tougher” problem.🩺 Better sleep isn’t just about feeling good; it’s directly tied to error reduction, patient safety, and longevity in EM/ICU careers.

Here we sharpen the person behind the practitioner by focusing on things that improve our performance, optimizing team dynamics and the human behavior that embodies the hidden curriculum of medicine. Today we are exploring the imperative topic of rest and why it’s not just about sleeping. The second of a two part series, hosted by Dr. Mark Ramzy with guests Dr. Maureen Aiad and Dr. Amil Badoolah, continue our discussion but this time on the multifaceted nature of sleep, how it serves as medicine and how we can use our tools deliberately to get more of it! Cognitive Question How would your clinical performance, patience with families, and long-term career sustainability change if you treated sleep as a non-negotiable clinical intervention rather than a flexible “nice-to-have”? 💤How is Sleep Different From Rest? 1. Rest reduces load; sleep repairs systemsWe previously talked about the 7 types of rest and you can check that out hereExamples of physical rest include: pausing tasks, stepping away from the monitor, taking a walk, stretching, breathing, journaling, connecting with a colleague. This lightens your cognitive/emotional burden.Sleep is fundamentally different in that it’s an active biologic process that helps:Consolidates memory and learning (yes, including the tough cases from last night).Regulates mood, impulse control, and emotional reactivity.Supports immunity, metabolic health, and cardiovascular function.Repairs tissue, replenishes neurotransmitters, and fine-tunes neural networks.You can have “rested but underslept” days (you took breaks but got 4 hours in bed), and “slept but unrested” days (you got hours, but all junk sleep). Both matter, but they are not interchangeable.2. Sleep architecture vs. “knocking out”True restorative sleep cycles through NREM and REM in predictable patterns.Alcohol, late caffeine, and fragmented nights may help you fall asleep faster but:Suppress REM.Shorten deep sleep.Increase awakenings and light sleep.The result: you technically slept, but your brain didn’t get the “software updates” it needed.Biology isn’t built for your scheduleCircadian rhythms were designed for light-day / dark-night cycles, not:10 pm–7 am ED shifts.24-hour calls.6 nights in a row followed by days.Your body can adapt partially, but not instantly and not perfectly. That’s why:You can feel “jet-lagged” even when you haven’t traveled.Sleep before and after nights feels odd and fragile.Recognizing that “this is biologically unnatural” is key: you’re not weak; you’re fighting physiology. 🏥How This Applies to the Emergency Department or ICU? Performance & safetySleep deprivation:Slows reaction time and increases error rate.Impairs risk assessment and complex decision-making.Drops your frustration tolerance with consultants, families, and staff.In both emergency medicine and critical care, that translates into:Anchoring on the wrong diagnosis.Missing subtle clinical changes.Snapping at a tech, nurse or resident and damaging team culture. Chronic health for chronic shift workLong-term sleep disruption is associated with:Hypertension, diabetes, obesity.Depression, anxiety, burnout.Arrhythmias (e.g., AFib) and increased stroke risk.Possibly increased all-cause mortality.You’re already in a high-stress, high-exposure specialty. Chronically poor sleep amplifies that risk profile and can end a career early—or make you miserable while you’re still in it.Culture of “heroics” vs. healthSkipping sleep to pick up extra shifts, late meetings, or “just one more note” is often praised.We rarely celebrate:The attending who says “no” to a 2 pm meeting post-nights.The resident who defends their blackout-curtains-and-earplugs routine. 🛏️Different Ways to Improve Your Sleep Clarify your “sleep non-negotiables”Decide how many hours you realistically need to function (e.g., 7–9 on off days, realistic blocks on nights).Treat those hours as you would a procedure time—blocked, protected, and respected.Use caffeine like a drug, not a reflexAim for ≤ 2 cups equivalent on most days.Avoid caffeine within 4–6 hours of your planned sleep time (remember: it can hang around up to 12 hours).Consider scheduling caffeine for:Early in the shift for alertness.Strategic “coffee naps” (see below), not late-night chugging.Respect alcohol’s impact on sleepRecognize that even small to moderate doses degrade sleep architecture.Avoid using alcohol as a “sleep aid”—you’ll fall asleep faster but sleep worse.If you do drink, separate it from bedtime and keep it modest.Optimize food and fluid timingHydrate consistently on shift, but taper fluids ~4 hours before bed to reduce nocturnal bathroom trips.Avoid heavy, spicy, or large meals within 2–3 hours of sleep to decrease reflux and discomfort.Plan a light, balanced “pre-sleep” snack if going to bed hungry keeps you awake.Move your body (but not right before bed)Regular exercise improves sleep depth and latency.Try to avoid intense workouts within 2 hours of bedtime.On shift: micro-movement (stairs, brisk walks between pods, quick stretch sessions) can help alertness without wrecking sleep later.Control light exposureMaximize sunlight or bright light after waking (even if that’s 3–4 pm after a night).Minimize bright light and screens before sleep:Dim lights.Use night mode/blue-light filters if you must scroll.For daytime sleep:Use blackout curtains, tinfoil, cardboard, or sleep masks.Yes seriously use tinfoil if you have to, we talk about it on the podcast episode!Aim for “I might be blind” darkness—so dark you can’t see your hand in front of your face.Dial in your sleep environmentCool room temperature (fan or AC if possible).White noise or sound machine to mask household/traffic noise.Earplugs and eye masks as needed.Bed used primarily for sleep (and sex)—not for charting, doom scrolling, or email.Strategic power napsKeep naps ≤ 20–30 minutes to avoid sleep inertia.Prefer early-afternoon or pre-night-shift naps.Coffee nap strategy:Drink a small coffee.Immediately lie down for a 20–30 min nap.Wake up as the caffeine kicks in, combining nap benefit + stimulant.Thoughtful melatonin useRemember melatonin is a hormone, not a vitamin gummy.Lower doses often work as well as (or better than) large OTC doses.Use it intentionally and intermittently, not as a crutch every night.Over-reliance may reduce your own natural production and its effectiveness over time.Build pre-sleep ritualsRepeated, calming habits signal your body it’s time to downshift:Warm shower, gentle stretching, or yoga.Guided breathing or body scan.Brief journaling or “brain dump” of tasks to get them out of your head and onto paper.Protect from pathologic patternsIf despite consistent effort you:Snore heavily, stop breathing, or gasp in sleep.Feel excessively sleepy driving home or at work.Cannot fall asleep or stay asleep for weeks to months.Consider evaluation for sleep apnea, insomnia, or shift-work sleep disorder with your physician or sleep specialist. ⏩Immediate Action Steps for Before/During/After Your Next Shift 1. **Before the Shift**: Plan a 20–90 minute nap before your first night shift (many clinicians find 3–5 hours earlier in the day is ideal).I treat ED and ICU shifts very differently. I always sleep 3-5 hours before my night shifts aiming for the full 5 (sometimes 6 or more) hours for my ED shifts because you always have to be “on”. Depending on the ICU I’m working in, I may have a bit more downtime so 3 to 5 hours is plenty.Set a caffeine plan: decide in advance when your last dose will be (e.g., none after 2–3 am if sleeping at 8–9 am).Tell your household, “This is my sleep block” and agree on a plan for kids, pets, deliveries, etc.On my calendar, I completely block off time called “Pre-call sleep” so no meetings can be scheduled and then put my phone in airplane mode2. **During the Shift** Hydrate early; taper fluids in the last 3–4 hours of your shift Eat something light but adequate; avoid “last-minute” heavy meals right before sign-out.Build in micro-breaks and movement: one or two short walks, a few stretches, even a quick stair run if safe.Get outside or near a window for a few minutes of light exposure if possible.3. **After the Shift**On the way home:Use sunglasses to reduce bright morning light if you’re aiming for sleep soon.Avoid “just checking” email or messages; shift into wind-down mode.At home:Do a brief, calming decompression (shower, light snack, 10–15 minutes of low-stimulation TV or reading).Make your room cold, quiet, and dark (blackout curtains, tinfoil/cardboard, white noise, fan).Put your phone on Do Not Disturb and physically place it away from the bed.On my calendar, I completely block off time called “Post-call sleep” so again no meetings can be scheduled and then I personally don’t just put my phone on Do Not Disturb but rather in airplane mode and WIFI OFF If you can’t sleep after ~20–30 minutes:Get out of bed, do something calming in dim light (breathing, gentle stretching, journaling).Return to bed when sleepy—this trains your brain to associate bed with sleep, not frustration. Conclusion Rest and sleep are both critical—but they’re not interchangeable. Rest helps you step out of the constant “on” of our jobs, while sleep is the biological intervention that restores your ability to show up safely and sustainably. Rest ≠ sleep. Rest reduces load; sleep repairs your brain and body. You need both, on purpose.As EM and ICU clinicians, we’re trying to perform formula-one-level medicine with engines that often only see half their maintenance. You won’t fix shift work. You can build a sleep system that respects your biology, your schedule, and your life at home.That system starts with valuing sleep, then prioritizing it, personalizing it, trusting the process when it’s imperfect, and actively protecting both your routine and your mindset. 🚨 Clinical Bottom Line Sleep is medicine. Shift work is biologically unnatural. Struggling does not mean you’re weak; it means you’re human fighting physiology. Use your tools deliberately. Caffeine, naps, light, food, movement, melatonin, and environment can be leveraged—or can quietly sabotage you. Build and defend a personalized sleep routine. Communicate it, normalize it, and protect it from casual encroachment. You can’t control every trauma, code, or admission—but you can control how seriously you take your own recovery. Your patients, your team, and your future self all benefit when you do. Further Reading Espie CA. The ‘5 principles’ of good sleep health.

Are you too busy to be healthy? Trule healthy in your body — mentally, emotionally, and spiritually healthy? In this episode, Dr. Emily invites you to take an honest look at your level of busyness. Not the kind that feels productive and energized… but the kind that leaves you wired at night, exhausted in the morning, and constantly rushing from one thing to the next. Dr. Emily walks through three powerful signs that you may have stepped into unhealthy busyness: • Difficulty sleeping because your body never truly relaxes • Rushing through your life without enjoying the moments you chose • A brain that never gets a break This episode isn't about adding another task to your list. It's about asking deeper questions: Am I as busy as I actually want to be? Did I feel rushed and overwhelmed today? What drains me? What fulfills me? Dr. Emily also explores the spiritual side of busyness — how constant stress and high cortisol levels leave very little space to hear, see, and recognize the small miracles happening around us. When we live in constant rush, we operate at the bare minimum of existence. And that's not the life we're meant to live. Instead, she invites you to identify your non-negotiables: Sleep. Brain breaks. Time that feels luxurious instead of frantic. Moments that feel meaningful instead of obligatory. You don't need to overhaul your life overnight. You don't need to add another commitment. You simply need space — space to reflect, space to breathe, space to choose differently. At the end of the episode, Dr. Emily shares a gentle daily reflection practice and a prayerful invitation: to align your desires with what truly nourishes your body, mind, and spirit. Because health isn't just about weight loss. It's about living in a way that feels whole. If you've been telling yourself you "don't have time" to slow down… this is the exact episode you need.

We all have hard seasons.Stages where the ground on which we stand seems to crumble, nothing seems to be in our favor and the winter seems endless.To know pain, to endure suffering and to feel as though the trial will never end is to be fully human. And to become most intimate with life itself.Our pain, in truth, becomes a purifier. Difficulty softens us, unmasks us and opens us—allowing the gifts of wisdom, humility and patience to become our new way of being.By the way, I've created a really special and deeply tactical new course that will help you significantly increase your productivity and performance over the next 30 days.

Hello to you listening in Pasadena, California! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. I've been binge-watching The Big Bang Theory TV series as I do this time each year to humor me through our Pacific Northwest November to May Rain Festival. As you might know a consistent theme is the characters' devotion to comics and superheroes. Why? The characters are highly intelligent, socially awkward nerds who have difficulty navigating society whereas the superheroes possess save-the-day abilities, rare powers, and bravery. Comics can be a safe place to fantasize living idealized versions of themselves as the nerd-turned-hero. But what do the Superheroes have to say about living life as a Superhero? Following are 7 quotes: 1. “When you decide not to be afraid you can find friends in super unexpected places.” — Ms. Marvel 2. “Everybody's story begins “once upon a time,” and it's up to us to cherish the time we're given to ensure we live happily ever after.” — Scarlet Witch 3. “I have no idea where I'm going to be tomorrow but I accept the fact that tomorrow will come and I'm going to rise to meet it.” — Donna Troy 4. “The fate of your planet rests not in the hands of gods. It rests in the hands of mortals.” — Thor 5. “The future is worth it. All the pain. All the tears. The future is worth the fight.” — Martian Manhunter 6. “The door is more than it appears. It separates who you are from who you can be. You do not have to walk through it… You can run.” — Franklin Richards 7. “A hero can be anyone. Even a man doing something as simple as putting a coat around a little boy's shoulders to let him know the world hasn't ended.” — Batman Story Prompt: For a long time your character has felt that she is more than she appears to be but does not believe she has what it takes to show up fully in her power until one day a door appears in a wall and she .... write that story and share it out loud!

For a lot of disability parents, the behavioral side of our child's diagnosis often gets judged the fastest and is understood the least. It's also another part that can make us feel like we're failing, because it's so hard to “control.”In this episode, Alyssa talks with Annie and Katie about behavioral disability and nervous system dysregulation in rare disease parenting. We cover what it looks like when behaviors don't fade with age, how it changes when kids get older and stronger, and what it's like to live in constant hypervigilance especially when there are siblings in the mix.We also dig into isolation, exclusion (even in disability spaces), and why access to services can depend on having the “right” labels beyond a rare disease diagnosis. If you've ever felt like this part of your child's disability is the hardest to explain and the heaviest to carry, this episode is for you.And our FUEL The Rare Life fundraiser is live!

In this week's episode of Leadership Insider, I talk about something we all experience but rarely frame correctly — difficulty.Setbacks.Betrayal.Unexpected collisions.Moments that knock the wind out of you.Most people try to escape it.Some become hardened by it.A few learn to use it.The difference is everything.Crash test dummies take the hit so others can learn how to survive it. In many ways, that's what responsibility looks like — taking the collision and extracting the lesson.The question isn't whether difficulty will come.The question is: Will you use it?Key Takeaways• Every setback contains insight most people never retrieve.• If you don't process pain, it makes you guarded.• If you do process it, it makes you wiser.• Difficulty can either shrink you or sharpen you.• What you learn in private becomes someone else's breakthrough later.• Don't just survive the hit — study it.There is treasure inside what hurt you.But you have to go back and collect it.Use the difficulty.Listen to the full episode and let me know what it taught you.Subscribe and share.@paulscanlonuk

Arthritis-related disability remains high, with nearly half of adults with arthritis struggling to perform basic daily movements that affect independence, mobility, and quality of life About 40% of working-age adults with arthritis report that the condition limits their ability to work, threatening income, job security, and long-term financial stability during prime earning years Difficulty with walking and climbing stairs is the strongest signal of serious disability, showing that loss of mobility — not just pain — drives work and activity limitations Arthritis-related limitations are far more severe when other chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, anxiety, or depression are present, compounding physical and economic strain Addressing root drivers like chronic inflammation, excess mechanical joint stress, and impaired cellular energy slows joint damage and helps preserve mobility and work capacity

It earns praise. Promotions. Respect. It hides behind phrases like "driven," "productive," and "hard-working." But for many high achievers, work isn't just effort — it's a coping mechanism. In this episode, Dawn shares her story of a "workaholic blackout" — the moment she realized work had become her drug. After years of recovery from substances, she found herself caught in a new cycle: overwork, anxiety, identity tied to productivity, and eventual burnout. At one point, she drove home from work and had no memory of the drive. That was the moment everything shifted. What followed was a diagnosis of extreme burnout and a realization that she wasn't just "busy" — she was addicted to working. When Work Stops Being Healthy One of the most powerful distinctions Dawn shared is this: Working hard doesn't make someone a workaholic. External pressure doesn't equal addiction. Workaholism comes from the inside. It's marked by: An internal compulsion to keep working Self-worth tied to productivity Constant thoughts about work Anxiety or guilt when not working Difficulty detaching — even during rest You can meet deadlines, put in long hours, and still be healthy. But when work becomes how you manage fear, grief, identity, or anxiety — it shifts from effort to escape. Burnout Isn't Just Exhaustion Burnout isn't just being tired. It's a full-system collapse: Physical Emotional Mental Spiritual For many high performers, burnout mirrors an addiction "bottom." You keep pushing… until your system can't. And then something breaks. Relationships suffer. Health declines. Meaning fades. And the work that once energized you begins to feel like pressure, obligation, or proof of worth. The Cultural Trap Our culture celebrates overworking. We glorify: Hustle Sacrifice Endless productivity "Grinding" for success But we rarely talk about the cost: Anxiety Family strain Loss of identity outside work Chronic stress Emotional detachment Workaholism is often called "the respectable addiction" because it looks admirable from the outside. Until it doesn't. Recovery Isn't About Quitting Work Unlike substances, you can't abstain from work. Recovery is about boundaries, awareness, and redefining your relationship to productivity. Dawn shared practices that helped her rebuild balance: Under-scheduling instead of over-planning Creating "top lines" (healthy behaviors to commit to) Creating "bottom lines" (behaviors to avoid) Protecting time for joy, relationships, and rest Spiritual grounding and daily reflection Detaching self-worth from output It's less about doing less — and more about working from a different place. Not fear. Not "not enough." Not urgency. But intention. Action Steps: Rebuilding a Healthy Relationship With Work If this episode resonated, here are simple starting points. 1) Notice the fuel behind your productivity Ask yourself: Am I working from joy… or fear? Is this aligned… or avoidance? Am I creating… or proving? 2) Separate urgency from importance Not everything urgent is important. And not everything important feels urgent. Pause before reacting. 3) Identify your "bottom lines" Examples: No work after a certain hour No phone during family time No checking email first thing in the morning 4) Define your "top lines" Healthy commitments like: Movement Hydration Connection Rest Creative time 5) Schedule spaciousness Recovery often begins with: Fewer commitments Fewer calls Fewer goals at once Space allows clarity. 6) Detach identity from productivity Practice this reframe: "I am enough — with or without what I produce today." 7) Watch for the "self-care productivity trap" Even healing can become another project. Self-care isn't something to optimize. It's something to experience. Reflection Prompts Where is my self-worth tied to achievement? What am I avoiding by staying busy? When do I feel most at peace — and why? What would "enough" look like today? Resources Mentioned Workaholics Anonymous literature and tools Journaling and recovery reflection practices Byron Katie's "The Work" inquiry process Anxiety and habit research (Dr. Judson Brewer) Recovery communities and peer support spaces (Referenced from episode transcript) Final Thought You don't have to burn out to change your relationship with work. You don't have to earn rest. You don't have to prove your worth. You don't have to run on fear. There is another way to work — one rooted in clarity, presence, and enoughness. And it starts with one honest question: What's really driving me right now? Guest Contact Info:
