Listener Menopause Exercise Question: Are You Exercising Too Much, Too Little, or Just Right?”   Recently, a listener asked a menopause exercise question, "I'm doing strength training three times a week for 30 minutes. Is that too much? If you have wondered, or wonder what is enough, too much or the Goldilocks for you, this is for you.   Based on a study in Ireland called Menowell (not to be confused with the bars), almost 70% of us get our information from friends and 50% get information from social media. So, beware. Even researchers right now are spending a lot of time and energy getting eyeballs and making shocking statements. Instead of merely sharing the facts, they're being as inflammatory as the influencers they claim not to be.    Quick Overview: Menopause can bring bone loss, muscle loss, metabolic changes, mood shifts & symptoms like hot flashes and sleep troubles. Promise: By the end, you'll know how to calibrate exercise for maximum benefit and minimal burnout, even if you're not experiencing any of these.    Why exercise is non-negotiable? Exercise is medicine.  Muscle is medicine and an endocrine organ.  Muscle is HRT if you allow it to be.  Like any other medicine, the right dose and timing are crucial.    How much is too little? I could answer in a very generic way: Minimum WHO/HHS guidelines:  150 min moderate aerobic + 2 strength sessions weekly  Under 150 min weekly leads to missed benefits like bone density maintenance and cardiometabolic protection   This is not a generic podcast and you're not a generic woman.  So, let's answer with the uniqueness you deserve. Whether you're exercising too little or too much your body leaves both objective and subjective data.    Red flags of Undertraining and Overtraining: Persistent fatigue Ongoing symptoms Plateau in strength/mood/weight.   More Answers to Your Menopause Exercise Questions   When exercise becomes too much: Excessive high-intensity sessions >3× weekly without recovery ups injury risk—especially for connective tissue for women in midlife.  Overtraining stress can aggravate symptoms, disturb sleep, mood, and adrenal health, appetite/cravings and libido.    Finding the sweet spot: Measure muscle and body fat (See Resources for my smart scale picks.)  Measure waist girth  Measure bone density through Dexa scan    Do-It-Yourself checklist: Track energy, sleep, mood, focus, libido, digestion, elimination (See Resources for Flipping50 Progress Tracker)  Between your objective and subjective measures, are you getting what you want? Not just immediate but long term?    References:  Cooper, D., Ward, K., Kavanagh, R. and O'Connor, S. (2023) ‘‘MenoWell': A pilot 6-week novel, online, multimodal exercise and health education programme for women in all stages of menopause living in Laois, Ireland', Physical Activity and Health, 7(1), p. 303–318.   Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - Essential Oils for Menopause Hormones | Essential How-to for Essential Oils Next Episode - Simple Ways to Know if You're Following Protein Rules in Menopause More Like This - Exercise and Hot Flashes and Other Menopause Symptoms   Resources:  Join the Flipping50 Membership for evidence-based workout programs.

In this episode of the Programmatic Digest, we talk with David Wiener, Director of Programmatic Media at a large agency group. He shares how he got started in programmatic as an intern at a small shop while studying at Hofstra and how he worked his way up through companies like Quotient to his current leadership role. David talks about how he stayed motivated during career changes and the challenges many face in this industry, like job stress and feeling stuck. We also talk about how to keep growing and knowing when it's time to make a move. We then break down what makes campaigns work well. We explain why building strong partnerships with platforms like Pubmatic and OpenX matters. We also explain the difference between focusing on performance and focusing on brand goals—and when each one is more important depending on your campaign's goal. Later, we talk about personal growth and the power of networking. I share how to keep learning at work and how to handle the guilt some feel when changing jobs. We also talk about favorite TV shows like Night Agent and Peaky Blinders. We end by thanking each other and reflecting on the great conversations this podcast brings.

" Horror is the excitement of the unknown." It's dark all around you. You clutch your flashlight with trembling hands, but the beam of light blinds you when it hits a wall of fog. In the swirling mist ahead, eerie creatures wander the grounds between you and your goal. You must use your knowledge of the inhabitants of this place to save yourself and your friends. Welcome to Lockhill. Bill Dalitsikas, owner of Lockhill Escape Game in Athens, Greece, is the master of horror, when it comes to escape rooms. The Sanatorium premiered at the #5 spot on the TERPECA awards, and Chapel & Catacombs was voted the #1 escape room in the world in 2022. (Both games also won Golden Lock Awards.) He joins us on REPOD to talk about his inspiration, thoughts on what makes for a good horror escape room, and the Athens escape room scene. These games are massive, and it's absolutely wild that for the most part, Bill designs and builds these games all by himself. I really loved hearing him talk about using actors as puzzles in his games. It's one of the many mechanics that make his games feel like real live video games. Indeed, he was heavily inspired by Silent Hill, Mansions of Madness, and Betrayal at House on the Hill. It became very clear as we talked to Bill that his motivation isn't to scare the players as much as possible; rather it's to give the players the best experience possible. That's why he has three different game modes for The Sanatorium: Day Mode where it's less scary with more focus on the puzzles, Night Mode where the focus is on the actors and scares, and Midnight Mode where players get the best of both worlds—maximum puzzles and maximum scares. Even if you're not a fan of horror games, I think you will find this conversation compelling. Hopefully it will convince you check out the games at Lockhill next time your are near Athens.   Full Show Notes   Episode Sponsors Thank you to our sponsors: Weldwood Marketing, Buzzshot, COGS by Clockwork Dog, and Patreon supporters like you.    Weldwood Marketing Maximize your online presence with Weldwood Marketing.

What does it take to lead in today's ever-evolving world, and how much of that is shaped by who you are versus where you are? In this episode of The People Dividend, host Mike Horne sits down with Ross Blankenship, consulting psychologist and leadership coach, to explore the deeper layers of leadership, identity, and career evolution. Drawing from his books Everyday Leadership and Assessing CEOs and Senior Leaders, Ross unpacks why a humanistic approach is essential for effective leadership—and how context can be just as influential as character. They also delve into the growing role of AI in executive assessment and what that means for the future of coaching and development at the top.   Key Points: Career transitions are deeply tied to identity shifts and successful leaders must navigate both. AI is transforming executive assessment, offering new insights but also raising ethical considerations. Personal growth in leadership begins with self-reflection and confronting our own assumptions.   Links:  Learn more about Mike Horne on Linkedin Email Mike at mike@mike-horne.com Learn More About Executive and Organization Development with Mike Horne Twitter: https://twitter.com/mikehorneauthor  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mikehorneauthor/,  LinkedIn Mike's Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/6867258581922799617/,  Schedule a Discovery Call with Mike: https://calendly.com/mikehorne/15-minute-discovery-call-with-mike     Learn More about Ross Blankenship  https://www.tuesdayadvisors.com/, https://www.rossblankenship.io/, https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonrossblankenship/

In today's episode, I share my personal experience with stem cell therapy—and the unexpected lessons that came from being forced to slow down. Whether you're choosing a procedure like stem cell therapy or suddenly dealing with an injury or illness, time off from your normal routine isn't just inconvenient — it's a major mental and physical shift. But it doesn't have to be a setback.  In this episode, I unpack the power of reframing your downtime with three key focus areas: Mindset,  Movement, and  Meaningful redirection.   Why I opted for Stem Cell Therapy Knee inflammation.  As a medical exercise specialist and a strength & conditioning coach, if we have a knee issue, the first places to look are the hip mobility, glute strength and hamstring strength. I chose to do a stem cell therapy NOW before the degeneration of the tissues got worse. Nothing you do with soft tissue will help your hard tissue or bone structure regenerate. If there's an opportunity to regenerate, it occurs when you're healthiest, not when more damage is done.   MINDSET Detaching identity from physically active and physically capable Dealing with “rest guilt” “You will regret doing too much. You won't regret doing less.” Flipping frustration into self-awareness What I did: travel to a baby shower  Accept the pace change without resentment.   MOVEMENT Moving smarter not harder. Do what I am able to do (core activation) and how I modified it with no pressure on the knees (e.g. stretching, swimming with a pool buoy, etc). “Some” movement matters more than “perfect” movement. It's better to be undertrained than overtrained.   MEANINGFUL REDIRECTION (or Focus Shift) Using the extra time for non-physical growth (sleep, reading a book, collecting recipes, etc.) Business planning, learning, and creative projects. The power of journaling during healing. Making your mandatory time off count long-term.   The Power of Pause - The Lesson Learned from My Stem Cell Therapy   Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - Bladder Issues in Menopause - The Hidden Bacteria You Need to Know Next Episode - Essential Oils for Menopause Hormones | Essential How-to for Essential Oils More Like This - Better Strength and Metabolism in Midlife Through More Rest and Recovery   Resources:  Get your lean, clean Flipping 50 Protein Powders to maintain muscle and support metabolism.

Hello to you listening in Victoria, BC, CanadaLand!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for a change up) for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.My friend Michelle asked me something that made me stop and think. She said, "You always end Story Prompt Friday with 'Write that story!' But you believe in the music of the spoken word - telling stories out loud - why not say that?Michelle knows me well.Here's the thing about our voices - they carry magic that our fingers can't capture. When you write your story, you're having a conversation with yourself. It's a lovely and necessary place to begin. But when you speak your story out loud, something different happens. Something powerful.Your voice carries the rhythm of your heartbeat. It holds the catch in your throat when you remember something tender. It speeds up when you get excited and slows down when the moment matters most. These aren't just sounds - they're the music of your experience.Think about the last time someone told you a story that made you lean in closer. Was it their words alone? Or was it the way their voice dropped to an intimate whisper? The way they paused right before the surprise? The way their whole face lit up when they got to the good part?When you tell your story out loud, you're not just sharing information. You're sharing yourself. Your voice carries your personality, your emotions, your truth in ways that words on a page simply cannot.Here's what I've learned in thirty years of teaching people to tell their stories: most of us have forgotten how powerful our voices are. We text instead of call. We email instead of visit. We've become quiet.Your story needs your voice. It needs the way you say certain words. It needs your pauses, your emphasis, your breath. These aren't extras - they're essential story ingredients.When you stand up and tell your story, you're claiming space in the world. You're saying, "This happened. This matters. I matter." That's not just storytelling - that's courage.And here's the magical surprise: when you tell your story out loud, you hear it differently than when you write it. You discover new meanings. You find the parts that will move your listeners. You learn which moments need more time and which ones can move faster.Your voice teaches you about your own story.Your stories are waiting for the full power of your voice. They're waiting for the music of the spoken word only you can make.So yes, write your stories. But don't stop there. Find someone to tell them to, a loved one, an animal companion, even to yourself as you're walking outside or working in your garden. That's where I practice! What's important is that you have a story to share.Give others that gift. Give yourself that gift. If you need a hand up I can help. Email me at info@quartermoonstoryarts.net to arrange for a no obligation Discovery Call or reach out to me ("Wyzga on Words") on Substack. I'd love the opportunity to work with you!  Story Prompt: Starting now, tell your story out loud!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Have you ever given your heart to someone… only to feel like it wasn't enough? I open up about the fears that show up in our closest relationships—the fear of not being enough, the fear of loving too much, the fear of being left without explanation.I've been there. Again and again. I gave love, and I got silence. I trusted, and I was abandoned. I hoped, and I was disappointed. And maybe you've been there too.Maybe you're still carrying the unhealed patterns from your childhood—your parents' way of relating, the rules they never spoke but lived by. I know I did. And I kept wondering: What am I doing wrong? Why do I always end up hurt?This episode isn't just about pain. It's about awakening. It's about learning to ask the hard questions. And about learning to give love without losing yourself.I share stories about past relationships, my parents, my brother, and the brave steps I had to take to free myself from the cycle of blame and fear.If you've ever felt like you cared more… If you've stayed silent because you feared the answer… If you've taken it all against yourself… This episode is for you. You're not alone. And if this touched your heart, I would truly love to hear from you—on Instagram, YouTube, or by email.BOOKS:

There's a deep wisdom that reveals itself when we walk in nature—especially when we give ourselves the time and space to walk long distances. In this episode, I share some of the powerful lessons I learned while leading a group of women on a 115 km trek along the Camino in southern France. This was more than a physical journey—it was a soulful one that reminded me of the importance of surrender, the value of discomfort, and the beauty of simply holding space for others. I also reflect on the parable of the moth and the cocoon, a story that perfectly illustrates why we need to struggle sometimes in order to grow.Order Your Copy of Whispers of the Soul here: https://mybook.to/WhispersofthesoulAbout Anita AdamsI'm Anita Adams, your host and the founder of Joyful Inspired Living, an organization devoted to teaching The Wisdom Way—a practice that helps individuals reconnect with their authentic selves and create lives filled with meaning, well-being, and joy.

Hello to you listening in Fairbanks, Alaska!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 and your host, Diane Wyzga.Jack Kornfield, American Buddhist teacher and writer asked, “Where does enlightenment come from?” and proceeded to offer an answer in his book, After the Ecstacy, the Laundry.    For as many times as I've read his work I keep coming back to the title: first, we experience an overwhelming feeling of joyful excitement, and then we are back into the reality of day-to-day living.  Our Whidbey Island No Kings rally was my ecstacy, feeling great happiness joining with over 2,500 others waving flags, holding signs, standing together, singing and laughing.Click HERE to access our Whidbey Island No Kings rally Photo GalleryBut when it was over I realized there was still the very long game of piles and piles of democracy  laundry. I felt despair. Until I remembered the “We the People” are America's Power speech delivered by my hero, Reverend William Barber, founder Repairers of the Breach on June 14th to 100,000 people rallying peacefully in the Philadelphia rain.Click HERE to access Rev. Barber's speech.My very favorite FanGirl bit starts at minute 3:48 when Reverend Barber asks the rally goers to hold the hand of the person next to them and say in “call & response” fashion, the following:“I love your life!I hold your life dear!I will protect your life!I will embrace your life!I will hope the best for your life!I will stand up for your life because we are one humanity and we need each other to survive.”Now that's how we do the laundry!Question: How are you standing together to reconstruct democracy in your community?Thank you for listening and taking part. You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Sonia C. is joining in from hot and dry Palm Springs, but she's not complaining about the heat! She's always up for the opportunity to speak about being present and aware in our bodies. And Sonia T. is in full support of following her intuition while zhuzhing up her house. She knows what a difference intuition makes in creating a space you can call home. But what happens when we stop listening to intuition and start listening to the barking dogs?    This week's theme is: Slow down so you can connect with your spirit and with others.    Highlights: Even realtors need to tune into intuition! [1:30]  The older she gets, the less Sonia T. tolerates unconsciousness. [4:40]  Do you notice how your energy affect others? [6:47]  Your spirit knows how to inform you – tune in! [9:55]  Are you really confused, or are you just stuck? [12:00]  Sonia C.'s intuition knows when she's not connecting with someone. [19:34] Generous laughter is a beautiful key to connection. [23:09]  Not every encounter needs to be a soul-bonding exchange. [29:00] Make connections over good food and music! [35:00] Tool of the Week: Connect with people about anything except work. [45:15] Question of the Week: How do you trust your vibes and intuition when things don't happen right away? [50:05]   Newsflash – your energy affects everyone, including the people around you! Are you letting your barking dog run wild, or are you willing to calm down and let your intuition peacefully and confidently guide you? No one wants to look incompetent, feel embarrassed, or be punished for the things we don't know, but the excuse of confusion keeps us from actually getting anywhere. These are all barking dog anxieties, and it is time to quiet them down!    Your spirit knows when connections are happening, and you need to know how to listen. You are not obligated to force connections that aren't natural. You owe it to yourself to listen to your intuition, and kindly move on. Are you laughing and connecting, or are you feeling exhausted by all that you're putting into connections that just aren't happening? Empaths are always willing to try harder than those around them, but remember – your energetic boundaries always deserve to be honored.    Tool of the Week: Connect with people about anything except work.   Question of the Week: How do you trust your vibes and intuition when things don't happen right away?    Continue on Your Journey:   Get Sonia Choquette's New Book Read Life ACCURATELY: Recognize and Respond to What's Really Happening More Sonia Choquette Join Sonia Choquette's Vibe Tribe Follow Sonia Choquette on Instagram Order Sonia Choquette's Trust Your Vibes Guided Journal True Balance book by Sonia C.   More Sonia Tully Book a Reading with Sonia Tully Follow Sonia Tully on Instagram Book a Discovery Call with Sonia Tully Free Spiritual Toolkit and Meditation   Connect with Sabrina Tully  Buy Sonia and Sabrina's Book You Are Amazing   Share with us your questions and vibe stories at itsallrelatedpodcastquestions@gmail.com and vibecheck@soniatully.com

If bladder issues in menopause are keeping you from jumping for bone density or for jumping for joy. Or if laughing and sneezing or a need to consider hydration needs against access to a bathroom are real life and every day concerns you… we've got you today.  Bladder issues in menopause don't need to keep you from activities, and they may come with signs and symptoms that aren't the obvious urgency, burning or leakage. The information here about testing beyond traditional options just might make you want to re-listen and share this one.    My Guest: Dr Kelly McCann is a board certified internist and pediatrician specializing in functional, integrative and environmental medicine. She graduated Brown undergrad, Tulane Med School, fellowship in Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona. Her medical practice, the Spring Center, is located in Southern California. She hosted virtual summits on MCAS and can be found on many podcasts, summits and @drkellymccann.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:09:09] What is a bacterial biofilm and how does that relate to bladder issues in women? [00:08:21] How do you know if you have a biofilm colonization? [00:13:26] Can you explain the testing technology and how it differs from a urinalysis and urine culture? [00:25:09] Other than UTIs and bladder issues, what might be some other signs that bacterial biofilms might be an issue?  [00:26:55] Are there other things that we should understand about this? (often associated with hypercoagulability which can mean an increased risk for heart disease) [00:30:58] Are there other options before or instead of antibiotics? If you personally got results back suggesting you do have bacteria, would you go the route of herbs or antibiotics?  [00:35:00] Cost of the test? And is it covered?    Bacterial Biofilm as Bladder Issues in Menopause   What is a Bacterial Biofilm? Mucus-like structures where bacteria live, can be found in the mouth, nose, GI tract, vagina, etc. These bacterial “homes” protect microbes from detection in standard lab tests. That means you can have symptoms, but your test results still show “normal.”   What is Next Generation Sequencing? Gives a complete and accurate picture of what's causing  your symptoms, even when your urinalysis and cultures are ‘normal'. Procedure: Scans the DNA of everything present in your sample (e.g. urine). Matches it to a vast DNA library of known organisms. Identifies exactly which microbes are in your bladder, how many, and in what percentages. Recommends treatment options by checking the medical literature for which antibiotics are effective against each bacteria. MicroGenDX does this test.   Signs You Might Have Biofilm Colonization: Chronic bladder symptoms (urgency, frequency, burning) without a confirmed UTI Recurrent UTIs that don't resolve or keep returning “Normal” urine tests but ongoing discomfort Other unexplained inflammation-driven symptoms like fatigue, rashes, headaches, joint pain, and more.   Relation to Heart Disease: Bacteria can travel from brushing your teeth and can end up in your coronary arteries and bladder. Biofilms can trigger clot formation for individuals who are genetically predisposed to forming clots or fibrin mesh. Systemic inflammation risk for individuals with low-level bacterial colonization that their body   Connect with Kelly: Website - Dr. Kelly McCann Website - The Spring Center Facebook - Dr. Kelly McCann Instagram - @drkellymccann    Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - Solving Sleep Issues with CBD and Other Perimenopause Symptom Solutions Next Episode - What Stem Cell Therapy Taught Me About Recovery, Mindset, and Reinventing Downtime More Like This - True Core Confidence: Revolutionizing Pelvic Floor Fitness After 40   Resources: Short & Easy Exercise videos in this 5 Day Flip Challenge.

" Challenging yourself is how you produce growth in your own life." Countless late nights, occasional tears, and many great conversations later, we did it. We made it to 100 episodes of REPOD! We've had so many incredible guests come on the show, fully willing to share the secret sauce to their success. These guests have been a treasure trove of creative inspiration. From discussing how to create immersive sets, to tricks for directing a player's attention, from how to effectively market your business to creating puzzles, our guests didn't gatekeep or pull their punches. To celebrate, we're taking a look back through the archives and picking some noteworthy clips. These were all things our guests said that really resonated with us – personally, professionally, or on a creative level. Each of these clips fundamentally changed how we think about something. Maybe it gave us a new perspective on leadership, like Elan Lee's clip about "other people's work." Or perhaps it was Christine Barger going against industry norms by allowing filming in her escape room. Others were more philosophical, like Alexander Gierholz's musings on the dissonance of escapism. Many of these clips helped shape the way we think about immersive design, such as Linda Klein talking about "experiential mixers" or Tommy Honton's "adrenaline map." It's been an amazing 100 episodes of Reality Escape Pod. I hope our guests have also inspired you in your creative journey. And if they did, we'd love to hear about it. Let us know if there's anything we missed that especially resonated with you.

"It's the first science-based escape room." If you ask an escape room enthusiast about entanglement puzzles, what likely springs to mind are those intertwined, bent metal nails that you need to separate. However, for Paul Kwiat, an entanglement puzzle is something else completely. Professor Kwiat is an acclaimed physicist, specializing in quantum physics, including quantum entanglement, along with quantum cryptography, dense-coding, quantum teleportation, entanglement distillation, and most recently, optical quantum gates. Phew! But what's a physicist doing on REPOD? Besides his many other accomplishments, Professor Kwiat has also created LabEscape, the first science-based escape room. Most of the puzzles in his games are built on different science phenomena such as magnetism, thermodynamics, and polarization. Many of these are rather advanced principles that would be taught at a college-level course. These are not games for kids! Professor Kwiat explains that he had three goals when creating his escape room. One—to show that science can be both relevant and accessible. Two—to show that these scientific effects are aesthetically beautiful. Three—that science is fun! His love of science and physics is certainly infectious. We couldn't resist the opportunity to chat about quantum mechanics, including quantum computers, and cryptography. I truly appreciated that he took the time to explain all these principles to us, even if it meant crushing my romantic notions of how quantum entanglement works. This episode is a bit different, but I think you'll certainly learn something.   Episode Sponsors Thank you to our sponsors: Weldwood Marketing, Buzzshot, COGS by Clockwork Dog, and Patreon supporters like you.    Weldwood Marketing Maximize your online presence with Weldwood Marketing.
