In this first episode of the new year, I speak about love and forgiveness as conscious daily choices.I share how I grew up in a family shaped by judgment, mistrust, and resentment, and how these generational patterns influenced my parents and, for a long time, myself. I reflect on my father's lifelong skepticism and briefly touch on how holding resentment caused deep emotional and physical pain in my mother's life.This episode invites you to reflect on the patterns you inherited and the meaning you give to your daily experiences. I speak about choosing love and trust even when it feels difficult, forgiving without losing boundaries, and being gentle with yourself when old reactions return.Above all, it is a reminder that it is never too late to start again. You can choose love and trust every day, even if you didn't grow up with them.At the end of the episode, I share how you can work with me in one-on-one coaching sessions if you feel ready to release old patterns and create new ways of relating to yourself and others.Thank you for listening, and I wish you a year filled with love and trust.BOOKS:
Hello to you, Marilyn, listening in Hancock, New Hampshire!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington, this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Wednesdays on Whidbey—this final day of the old year—and your host, Diane Wyzga. Shoveling Snow With Buddha by Billy Collins"In the usual iconography of the temple or the local Wokyou would never see him doing such a thing,tossing the dry snow over the mountainof his bare, round shoulder,his hair tied in a knot,a model of concentration. Sitting is more his speed, if that is the wordfor what he does, or does not do. Even the season is wrong for him.In all his manifestations, is it not warm and slightly humid?Is this not implied by his serene expression,that smile so wide it wraps itself around the waist of the universe? But here we are, working our way down the driveway,one shovelful at a time.We toss the light powder into the clear air.We feel the cold mist on our faces.And with every heave we disappearand become lost to each otherin these sudden clouds of our own making,these fountain-bursts of snow. This is so much better than a sermon in church,I say out loud, but Buddha keeps on shoveling.This is the true religion, the religion of snow,and sunlight and winter geese barking in the sky,I say, but he is too busy to hear me. He has thrown himself into shoveling snowas if it were the purpose of existence,as if the sign of a perfect life were a clear drivewayone you could back the car down easilyand drive off into the vanities of the worldwith a broken heater fan and a song on the radio. All morning long we work side by side,me with my commentaryand he inside the generous pocket of his silence,until the hour is nearly noonand the snow is piled high all around us;then, I hear him speak. After this, he asks,can we go inside and play cards? Certainly, I reply, and I will heat some milkand bring cups of hot chocolate to the tablewhile you shuffle the deck,and our boots stand dripping by the door. Aaah, says the Buddha, lifting his eyesand leaning for a moment on his shovelbefore he drives the thin blade againdeep into the glittering white snow."My New Year wish for you: As the old year folds onto itself and the new year dawns I wish for you that your everyday activities, even the very simple tasks, bring humor, contemplation, and a sense of magic in the ordinary. May you find your way on the path following a compass heading of True North. May the love you seek wend its way to you. May you dream well, journey far, and be sustained in hope that what you're looking for is looking for you.You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Don't know where to start? Book your Discovery Call with Debra. Leave this session with insight into exactly what to do right now to make small changes, smart decisions about your exercise time and energy. The Preconception Revolution isn't about getting pregnant—it's about creating the healthiest possible future for the next generation, long before conception ever happens. Let's go into why fertility challenges are often a signal of deeper health issues, not just age or bad luck. You'll learn how environmental toxins, gut health, nutrition, and lifestyle choices in both women and men directly impact fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and a child's lifelong health. This conversation is especially for midlife women who care deeply about their kids, grandkids, and the legacy of health they leave behind. If you've ever wondered what you wish you'd known sooner—or what your adult children need to know now—this episode delivers the why behind The Preconception Revolution. My Guest: Dr. Ann Shippy, MD is a board-certified internal medicine physician and certified functional medicine practitioner who is a leading voice in the preconception movement—focused on optimizing health before pregnancy to influence lifelong and generational wellness. A former chemical engineer at IBM, she brings a systems-based, science-driven approach to uncovering root causes of infertility and chronic disease. She is the author of The Preconception Revolution, a science-backed guide helping men and women prepare their bodies for healthy pregnancies. Through her Austin-based practice and online programs, Dr. Shippy has helped couples conceive healthy babies well into their 40s using advanced testing and precision strategies. Her work has been featured in major media outlets and on national stages including TEDx and leading wellness conferences. Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:06:15] How did you move from being known as “the mold doctor” into preconception and fertility work? [00:11:14] Is the fertility crisis really about age? What if fertility is not the problem—but a signal of overall health? [00:13:03] What should women be doing during the preconception window—three to 36 months before pregnancy? [00:15:58] How important are air quality and water safety when preparing for pregnancy? [00:18:33] What do men need to be doing to support fertility and a healthy pregnancy? [00:28:15] Why are chronic conditions like autism, autoimmunity, and ADD increasing—and what does preconception health have to do with it? [00:39:14] What are the most important first steps parents—or future grandparents—can take right now?

Send us a textNonprofits are constantly told to “tell powerful stories” to move donors, but what happens when those stories come at the expense of the people you serve? In this episode, we dive into the messy, important questions behind ethical storytelling: consent, power, and what it really means to honor people's dignity in your fundraising and communications. Maria and Ceallaigh unpack how photos and personal narratives have historically been used in extractive, colonial ways, and why “we got a signed form” is not enough. On this week's episode of The Small Nonprofit Podcast, Maria Rio sits down with Ceallaigh Smart, Executive Director of Print the Love and Haiti Outreach. Ceallaigh shares how Print the Love has given over 17,000 photos in 27 countries without keeping copies and what that kind of values-driven approach can teach any organization about consent, autonomy, and trust. Nonprofit leaders will walk away with practical ideas on how to audit their current storytelling, start real conversations with their communities, and build policies that center dignity.

Hello to you listening in Suffolk, Virginia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for an important story) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Each one of us - if we're determined - finds a way to compost the regrets, poor decisions, failures, shames and blames that are part and parcel of living life into something almost beyond description: personal transformation. My long time friend, podcasting colleague, disabled military vet, and avid hiker, Keith McNally, is a man finding his path to transformation.His goal? Thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail beginning on March 29, 2026, crossing 14 states on the East Coast and finishing 2,197 miles 5 months later. Some of the challenges include constant rough terrain with difficult footing, a series of steep grades, climbs and descents, as well as river crossings balanced on logs, extreme weather, insects, and rock scrambles using hands for climbing. The elevation profile of the AT over its length is akin to summiting Mount Everest from sea level and back approximately 16 times. So yes, physical fitness is a must to take on the AT; but it is mental fortitude and the ability to adapt to unforseen challenges that is key to finishing the hike.Keith's journey will be a test of perseverance, a tribute to the beauty of the natural world, and an opportunity for personal growth. Even more importantly, Keith is setting the groundwork for a non-profit foundation to help military veterans find their own Trails to Transformation. This first hike is just the beginning. But here's something else. Keith is not walking alone. He has also been steadfastly training an indefatigable Aussie cattle dog he named Ashley after rescuing her from a shelter. Click HERE to watch a short video entitled: Introduction to Ashley - Trail Partner and Training CompanionAs you can imagine, an expedition like this one does not come cheap. I know money is dear. And, here I am asking you to please reach deep into your pocket to give what you are able to Keith & Ashley's GoFundMe project. On the GoFundMe site you'll find all the details as well as a punch list of expenses so you can see where your contributions will go.

When one chapter is ending and the next hasn't begun yet, it can feel unsettling — but it's also where deep growth quietly begins.In this episode of the Spiritual Journey Podcast, Nimesh Radia and Stacey Brown take time to reflect on the past year with gratitude, presence, and honesty. As they close out a cycle, they acknowledge the support of the podcast community and explore the emotional and energetic space many people find themselves in right now — the in-between phase where something has ended, but the next chapter hasn't yet taken shape.They speak openly about uncertainty, discomfort, and the urge to rush ahead for clarity, reminding listeners that this transitional space is not a mistake or a pause in progress. Instead, it is an invitation to slow down, practise self-care, and reconnect with mindfulness, compassion, and inner awareness. The conversation highlights the importance of community, being present with what is, and offering kindness to both yourself and others as change unfolds.This episode is for anyone feeling reflective, tender, or unsure at the end of a cycle — a reminder that you don't need to have everything figured out to be exactly where you're meant to be.Key Themes✨ Endings, transitions, and new beginnings✨ The emotional experience of the in-between phase✨ Self-care and mindfulness during uncertainty✨ Community, compassion, and shared growthTakeaways✨ The in-between phase is part of the journey, not a problem to fix✨ Self-care becomes essential during times of transition✨ Being present allows deeper awareness and healing✨ Compassion for yourself and others creates steadiness in changeSound Bites✨ I feel so blessed with this podcast✨ It's a time to just be✨ You have to be gentle with yourselfAlso available to watch on YouTube.If this episode resonates, please like, comment, and follow the podcast.Connect with Nimesh

In this episode of Flipping 50, know how hormonal changes, reduced digestive enzymes, and a lifetime of exposure to certain foods can turn traditional holiday meals into a perfect storm for bloating, inflammation, and digestive distress. You'll hear why foods like gluten, dairy, and even eggs can suddenly become harder to tolerate, especially when they're layered together at one meal. Holiday meals make you miserable when digestion, hormones, and food sensitivities are ignored—but don't have to when you know how to plan differently.

Hello to you listening in Hannover, Germany!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. Once upon a time long ago and far away there lived a farmer. His most treasured possession was a fine stallion. Oh my, said the neighbors: what good fortune to own such a fine horse! Perhaps, said the farmer.One night the stallion ran off in a storm. Oh no, said the neighbors, what a disaster to lose your horse! Perhaps, said the farmer.But after some time the stallion came back and following him a mare and a pony. Oh my, said the neighbors: what good fortune! You had no horses and now you have 3! Perhaps, said the farmer. One day the farmer's son galloped off on the mare, hit the branch of a tree, fell to the ground, and badly broke his leg. Neighbors found him, carried him home and said, Oh no, what a disaster for your poor son. Perhaps, said the farmer.The son was in bed with his broken leg when a tribe from the north descended on the village. Every able-bodied man and boy went out to defend their homes and farms. Many died that day. But the farmer's son who could not fight —through no fault of his own— was spared. Oh my, said the neighbors, what good fortune your son was spared! Perhaps, said the farmer.And so the old ones say that just beneath good fortune crouches disaster but always perched above disaster one finds good fortune and it is impossible to know which is really which.Story Prompt: Life shows up in such integrated complexity, how can we know whether what happens is good or bad?

This Christmas Day episode is a heartfelt message for your soul — a reminder to meet yourself exactly where you are, without judgement, pressure, or expectation.In this solo conversation, Nimesh Radia shares a gentle reflection on self-acceptance, emotional wellbeing, and the importance of presence during a time of year that can amplify both love and loneliness. Christmas can bring joy, connection, and gratitude — but it can also surface grief, exhaustion, sadness, or a quiet sense of disconnection. Wherever you find yourself today is valid.This episode is not about transition, next steps, or what comes next. It is an invitation to soften, to rest emotionally, and to remember that you are already enough. You have not missed anything. You are not behind. And your worth is not measured by how festive, productive, or connected you feel.Let this be a pause. A moment to breathe. A reminder that you are loved, needed, and held — exactly as you are.Key Themes✨ Self-acceptance without judgement ✨ Emotional wellbeing during the holidays ✨ Releasing external expectations ✨ Presence, kindness, and gentleness ✨ Remembering your inherent worthTakeaways✨ You are exactly where you need to be today ✨ It's okay to feel heavy, quiet, or lonely at Christmas ✨ Your worth is not defined by milestones or outcomes ✨ This year was about shedding layers, not achieving goals ✨ Falling in love with who you are now is part of the journeySound Bites✨ You are needed, you are wanted ✨ You haven't missed anything ✨ Be gentle, be kindAlso available to watch on YouTube.

This last solo episode of the year is dedicated to my parents — to my mother, who passed away in February, and to my father, who is about to turn 91.I share honestly about my relationship with my parents: the conflicts, the distance, the pain — and the healing that came much later.I speak about growing up with an authoritarian father and a mother who struggled with boundaries, about feeling unseen and emotionally overwhelmed, and about living for a long time in victim mode without realizing that I had a choice.This episode is not about blaming parents. It's about understanding, compassion, and truth.I share what my parents gave me — both through their love and through their limitations: security, curiosity, culture, creativity, work ethic, and the impulse to grow emotionally and choose a different path.At its heart, this episode is about meaning. About how we can change the story we tell ourselves. And how this shift can free us from long-held suffering.If you feel stuck in old pain, it's an invitation to see your story from a new angle. If you're ready to gently rewrite your story, book a free one-on-one coaching.Thank you for listening and for being here.BOOKS:

Hello to you listening all around the world this Christmas Eve!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.It's that time of year when it feels like the hurrier we go the behinder we get. I have a solution for you. For just a moment let us breathe and practice keeping still this Silent Night with Pablo Neruda. KEEPING QUIET "Now we will count to twelveand we will all keep stillfor once on the face of the earth,let's not speak in any language;let's stop for a second,and not move our arms so much. It would be an exotic momentwithout rush, without engines;we would all be togetherin a sudden strangeness. Fishermen in the cold seawould not harm whalesand the man gathering saltwould look at his hurt hands. Those who prepare green wars,wars with gas, wars with fire,victories with no survivors,would put on clean clothesand walk about with their brothersin the shade, doing nothing. What I want should not be confusedwith total inactivity.Life is what it is about;I want no truck with death. If we were not so single-mindedabout keeping our lives moving,and for once could do nothing,perhaps a huge silencemight interrupt this sadnessof never understanding ourselvesand of threatening ourselves with death. Perhaps the earth can teach usas when everything seems deadand later proves to be alive. Now I'll count up to twelveand you keep quiet and I will go."

As we wrap up the year, I wanted to share something a little different — a conversation from the heart about what I'm truly grateful for this Christmas. Not the usual business wins or revenue milestones (though I'm proud of those too). But the real things. The quiet growth. The identity shifts. The courage it takes to keep going — especially when no one's clapping yet.

In this episode, Larry and Cody do something rare: they run a fully unscripted mock discovery call so coaches can hear what a real consult sounds like—not a perfect script, not a role-play where the client rolls over, but an authentic conversation with resistance, uncertainty, and nuance. Larry plays a skeptical, achy 55-year-old client, while Cody navigates the conversation exactly as he would in real life. As the call unfolds, Cody demonstrates how to ask better questions, slow the conversation down, and help a client feel understood without prematurely pitching solutions. Coaches will hear how to uncover goals like confidence, longevity, and “not paying the price tomorrow,” while avoiding common traps like over-explaining or defending value too early. The episode closes with a breakdown of why the call worked: how Cody determined fit, framed the next step, and created clarity without pressure. If you struggle with discovery calls, handling objections, or moving conversations forward naturally, this episode is a masterclass in consultative selling done right.

In this episode of the People Dividend Podcast, host Mike Horne speaks with John Wang, author of 'Big Asian Energy' and an executive coach, about the journey to bold leadership and empowerment. They discuss the impact of cultural upbringing on leadership styles, the challenges posed by stereotypes, and the importance of embracing one's authentic self. John shares insights on building confidence, the power of vulnerability, and the significance of understanding cultural nuances in communication. The conversation emphasizes that leadership is not just about competence but also about warmth and connection. Key Points: Leadership is about taking initiative and embracing your authentic self. Our cultural upbringing shapes our leadership perspectives and how we succumb to or overcome the negative effects of stereotypes. Understanding cultural nuances is crucial in communication and being an effective leader. John Wang's book 'Big Asian Energy' encourages individuals to own their strengths and challenge limiting beliefs about oneself. Self-doubt can be transformed through understanding personal patterns.

In this episode of Top Self, Shanenn breaks down a question so many people quietly struggle with—especially this time of year:Why do I feel calm and trusting with my partner sometimes… and anxious, suspicious, or insecure with them at other times—when nothing has actually changed?As the holidays approach and routines shift, old patterns can resurface. Shanenn explains why these emotional swings don't mean you're inconsistent, broken, or ignoring red flags. Instead, they're signals from your nervous system responding to changing conditions—not changing relationship facts.This episode offers a powerful reframe that removes shame, self-blame, and overthinking—and replaces them with clarity, self-trust, and nervous-system awareness so you can stop turning emotions into verdicts about your relationship.Key Moments:1:45 – Why the holidays can make anxiety spike even in “good” relationships3:50 – The core truth: calm and anxiety come from your nervous system, not your partner6:40 – Why feeling calm doesn't mean you're “healed” or fixed9:00 – What's really happening when you start scanning, spiraling, or overthinking11:30 – Why emotions are signals of state—not proof of truth13:45 – The shift that helps anxiety soften without controlling your environmentGolden Episode Nuggets:
Send us a textEver wondered how to critique the nonprofit sector while leading an organization within it? Join Maria Rio for a conversation with Amber Hamilton, President and CEO of the Memphis Music Initiative, who went viral for saying what every nonprofit leader thinks but won't say out loud. Amber shares why humor became her weapon of choice; creating satirical videos that called out philanthropy's racist funding practices, absurd application processes, and performative accountability measures. She is simultaneously running a grant-making organization that proves it can all be done differently. She tackles the real price Black women pay for speaking truth to power, why somebody has to be willing to say "the emperor is wearing no clothes," and how telling the truth (even when it's uncomfortable) ultimately works in your favor.Because if one more data sheet or think piece was going to change philanthropy, it would've happened by now.

What if one of the most overlooked leadership behaviors was also one of the most powerful drivers of engagement, performance, and retention?In this episode of Shedding the Corporate Bitch, we reframe gratitude from being “nice” to being strategic.

Holiday Break Announcement: No New Episodes for Two WeeksIn this brief holiday message, Kelle announces that there will be no new podcast episodes for the last two weeks of December. This break is to give her husband, who manages all the editing, some much-needed time off after dedicating himself to the task of post-op recovery nurse for two months non-stop. She humorously explains the concept of being 'overdone' and encourages listeners to take their own downtime if they are feeling cranky or exhausted. Kelle invites the audience to revisit over 400 past episodes during this break and promises to return with new content in the new year.00:00 Introduction and Holiday Greetings00:03 Announcement: No New Episodes00:18 Reason for the Break00:33 Signs of Being Overdone00:53 Taking Downtime00:58 Returning in the New Year01:11 Enjoy Past Episodes01:21 Final Holiday WishesIf you would like to learn more please book a Discovery Call here: https://kellesparta.com/discovery-call/Keywords:#SpiritSherpaLicensing and Credits:“Spirit Sherpa” is the sole property of Kelle Sparta Enterprises and is distributed under a Creative Commons: BY-NC-ND 4.0 license.

Hello to you listening in Jakarta, Indonesia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.As the old ones say, “If we are not grateful for what we have in this present moment, what makes us think we will be happy with more?” Maybe it's true and maybe it isn't but long ago and far away there lived a man in a small country village. He had everything he had ever asked for: friends, livelihood, wife, family - and yet and yet something was stirring in him: Looking around he asked himself, Is this all there is? Perhaps I am meant for something more, something better. Perhaps I should go and seek my happiness outside the village.One summer morning he left his home, carefully closed the garden gate behind him and walked away. He walked for miles and miles until he could no longer see where he had been. Night fell and he found himself deep in a dark forest. Having no other shelter he took off his shoes, spread his coat on the ground, and fell asleep against the trunk of a tree for he was very tired.Watching him sleep his angel shook her head at the folly of his adventure. But what could she do? She could turn his shoes around facing them back in the direction from which he came. And so she did.When the man awoke he pulled on his coat, put his feet into his shoes and began to walk. After many miles of walking the man began to see familiar fields, a few farmhouses, a village - all looking very much like what he had left; but how could that be? People in the village market greeted him as if he was familiar to them; but how could that be? Arriving at a cottage with a garden gate he was startled to be greeted by children and a woman as if he were their long lost father and husband; but how could that be? They welcomed him inside, took off his shoes, sat him at a table very much like one he knew, fed him food that tasted like home; but how could that be?To this very day the man lives with that family in that home in that village and wonders, “If this isn't happiness, what is?” As the old ones say, “If we are not grateful for what we have in this present moment, what makes us think we will be happy with more?” You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

When the world feels loud and demanding, your inner truth doesn't shout — it waits for you to slow down and listen.In this episode, Nimesh Radia and Stacey Brown explore how to hear your inner truth when everything around you feels noisy, uncertain, and overwhelming. Many people are feeling mentally overloaded, emotionally stretched, and pressured to have answers right now. This conversation offers a gentler invitation — to pause, soften the noise, and reconnect with the quieter wisdom within.Nimesh and Stacey reflect on patience, presence, and acceptance as spiritual practices, especially during this completion phase where clarity can feel just out of reach. They speak about the importance of listening instead of forcing, allowing instead of pushing, and trusting that growth continues even when nothing appears to be moving on the surface. Through reflections on mindfulness, meditation, journaling, and community support, this episode reassures listeners that not knowing is part of the process.This conversation is for anyone standing between endings and beginnings — craving clarity, yet sensing that the next step will arrive through stillness rather than action.Key Themes✨ Hearing inner truth when everything feels loud ✨ Patience and presence during uncertainty ✨ Completion as a phase of integration ✨ Acceptance and self-compassionTakeaways✨ You do not need all the answers right now ✨ Inner truth speaks quietly, not urgently ✨ Presence is a powerful spiritual practice ✨ Acceptance creates space for claritySound Bites✨ It's okay not to have answers right now ✨ Be gentle with yourself and others ✨ One moment, one breathAlso available to watch on YouTube.

Clinics are losing patients every single day, not because of price, but because of slow response times. Here's the reality: 42% of patients expect a reply within 1 hour. If you don't respond within 5 minutes, the chances of conversion drop by almost 80%. More than 60% of patients research clinics after hours, when most reception desks are closed. The good news? Artificial Intelligence is changing this completely. In this episode,we reveal how clinics are using AI to: ✅ Respond instantly to calls, enquiries, and social messages — 24/7 ✅ Automate follow-ups so no lead ever slips through the cracks ✅ Increase booking rates by up to 300% without hiring extra staff ✅ Cut no-shows and improve patient satisfaction with AI confirmations and reminders ✅ Free up staff to focus on care while AI handles repetitive tasks

Book a Discovery Call for Relationship Renovation CoachingOrder Relationship Renovation at Home Manual from AmazonJoin Our Patreon CommunityTake the Emotional Safety Assessment QuizIn the final episode of our four-part Intimacy Gap series, we focus on how couples can move forward — not by “getting back” what they once had, but by intentionally creating a new intimacy story together.Many couples feel stuck when intimacy changes. Desire feels mismatched. Emotional connection fades. Sex becomes pressured or avoided. In this episode, we explore why intimacy isn't something you find again — it's something you build over time through emotional safety, curiosity, and shared experiences.We talk about how play and novelty reduce defensiveness, why new experiences create powerful bonding moments in the brain, and how small, realistic shifts (not grand gestures) can dramatically improve emotional, physical, and sexual connection. We also break down the different types of intimacy — emotional, physical, sexual, spiritual, and intellectual — and help couples clarify what they want their intimate relationship to feel like now.This episode offers a practical framework for:Letting go of old intimacy stories that no longer fitCreating a shared vision for connection that honors both partnersBuilding habits that foster desire without pressure or obligationAddressing real-life blocks like stress, parenting, mental health, and time constraintsShifting intimacy from a task into an experience of connection and pleasureWe also emphasize that intimacy is a living practice, not a one-time conversation. Couples who revisit these conversations regularly — with curiosity instead of defensiveness — build more secure, resilient relationships over time.In This Episode, We Cover:Why play and novelty are essential for long-term intimacyHow to create a new intimacy story instead of chasing the pastThe role of emotional safety in rebuilding desireHow stress, avoidance, and pressure quietly sabotage connectionPractical ways to bring intimacy into everyday life (not just the bedroom)A simple reflection exercise to identify how you feel desiredAction Step for ListenersTake a few minutes to reflect — alone or with your partner:How do I feel desired emotionally?How do I feel desired physically?How do I feel desired sexually?These answers can become the foundation of your new intimacy story.Want More Support?Our Relationship Renovation at Home Patreon includes a full, step-by-step intimacy series designed to help couples build emotional safety, repair communication, and create lasting connection at their own pace.

Most companies don't have a marketing problem.They have a trust problem.Specifically, a trust breakdown between the CEO and the CMO.In this episode of Think Millions, I unpack why CEOs don't trust marketing leaders, why CMOs feel set up to fail, and why both sides are actually right. Modern buying behavior has changed, but the mental models and measurement systems evaluating marketing have not.Buying is nonlinear.Decisions happen privately.Influence happens long before attribution ever shows up.Yet marketing is still judged at the end of the funnel.This episode breaks down the real reason trust erodes, why marketing feels invisible even when it is working, and how leadership teams can fix the disconnect without forcing marketing into outdated boxes.No hype. No theory. Just what actually happens inside real companies trying to scale.Key parts of the conversation:0:16 – Why CEOs don't trust CMOs and why CMOs feel set up to fail 0:54 – The stat that should make every CMO uncomfortable 1:14 – Why trust controls budgets, hiring, and risk 1:29 – One third of Fortune 500 companies eliminating the CMO role 2:01 – Why CEOs and CMOs are both right 2:12 – The outdated system quietly killing trust 2:36 – Rising expectations, shrinking budgets, impossible timelines 2:58 – Brand and trust compound quietly but are evaluated loudly 3:06 – Why modern buying no longer happens in a straight line 3:20 – Marketing influencing outcomes before it can be measured 3:34 – The burnout and trust fracture inside marketing teams 3:41 – Most marketing arguments are actually about fear 3:51 – Why uncertainty makes leaders pull back 4:13 – Marketing used to feel simpler, even with less data 4:25 – Marketing shapes preference before pipeline 4:30 – CEOs are asking the wrong question, not an unreasonable one 4:36 – Marketing is no longer transactional; it is directionalGreat quotes from the podcast:• “Most companies don't have a marketing problem. They have a trust problem.”• “80% of CEOs do not trust their CMOs. That should scare you.”• “Trust is the foundation of every decision a company makes.”• “When trust exists, leaders invest forward. When it breaks, leaders pull back.”• “The CEO isn't wrong. The CMO isn't wrong.

He had been walking many days, sleeping rough, eating little, and was very hungry. He stumbled into a small village that looked worse than he felt but surely, he thought, someone could spare a bite to eat. He knocked at the first door he came to but the woman who answered his knock said ......How we treat each other, help each other, brings people together, makes food taste better, makes life better. Going into the coming days we will need each other like never before. We will need to feed each other with stone soups and nourishing stories.Story Prompt: Think of a time when you were nourished by someone or something that felt as magical as ..... stone soup!

The growing body of knowledge around midlife women's fitness and longevity is in part due to women's health researcher Abbie Smith-Ryan. I'm thrilled to host her and share a few of the insights from her work. She's instrumental in bringing directly to you from the lab the practical ways you can change your next workout and your routine this week for a better future. My Guest: Dr. Abbie E. Smith-Ryan, PhD, is a Professor of Exercise and Sport Science who leads an innovative research lab focused on body composition, metabolism, sport nutrition, and exercise performance—particularly for women across the lifespan. She has published over 220 peer-reviewed studies and is a nationally recognized leader in sports science, with multiple awards from the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:04:28] How has entering midlife changed how Abbie views her own research? [00:06:34] Why do postmenopausal women often need more training volume to change body composition — and how do we balance that with recovery? [00:14:54] Is high-intensity training actually helpful for midlife women — and how do we know when intensity is helping versus hurting? [00:14:46] Does walking really burn more fat — or is that one of the biggest myths in exercise science? [00:21:02] What is metabolic inflexibility, and why do so many midlife women struggle to burn fat even when they're exercising and eating “right”? [00:23:52] Why does protein before exercise improve fat oxidation, energy, and muscle preservation — especially after 40? [00:32:43] What's the one piece of science every midlife woman should understand to immediately improve how she trains and fuels?
