Today we have Robyn. She is 49 years old from Columbia, SC and took her last drink on June 30th, 2020.   This episode brought to you by:   Better Help – 10% off of your first month #sponsored Soberlink – sign up and claim your $100 enrollment bonus   We are planting the seed early and inviting you to join us for our 7th annual Restore course coming January 2026. Registration opens Monday, December 1st.   [02:39] Thoughts from Paul:   We have all heard the word recovery, but what does that mean? And does it ever end? Paul recently came across a line he likes that says, "If substance use or drinking no longer interferes with your ability to live a productive and loving life, then recovery has been achieved."   Using the logic of this line, Paul shares with us several ways that we can see if recovery has been achieved. Maybe you'll have to (or get to) attend meetings or chats for the rest of your life or maybe your recovery has already been achieved. So now what?   A simple answer is don't go back to drinking but in addition to that, sticking with the pack or community that helped you achieve recovery in the first place is a good start.   [07:54] Paul introduces Robyn:   Robyn is 49 and she lives in Columbia, SC with her husband, stepdaughter and two pit bulls. She is an office manager for a transportation company and enjoys reading, playing games and spending time with her family. Robyn was previously interviewed on episode 306.   Robyn grew up very shy and quiet and never really felt she fit in. The desire to rebel was building up and when she moved from Maine to South Carolina towards the end of high school, she viewed it as an opportunity to try new things including alcohol and other drugs.   After graduating high school, Robyn met someone and ended up getting married at the age of 18. She didn't realize the issues he had, and it was her first exposure to an abusive relationship with an addict.   Fortunately, she was able to escape that relationship but jumped right into another one that she considers her first real relationship. Their drinking looked normal for their age but over time, it started to create cracks in their relationship, and they split up soon after moving away from friends and family.   Feeling abandoned again and not knowing anyone, Robyn started going out and meeting people at bars alone after work. The relationships she had were with others who partied like she did, which helped her ignore the addictions that were creeping in. Her codependent nature found her feeling stuck in another abusive relationship, but over time she was able to start pulling away and made attempts to regulate her drinking.   After their break-up, Robyn began a close friendship with a friend from work. With his influence and help, she began to explore her traumas and started to organically cut back on her drinking as he rarely drank. They eventually began a relationship, and Robyn happily assumed the role of stepmother to his two children. She still drank, but it looked very different, and "mommy wine culture" made it seem ok.   After the sudden death of Robyn's mother, she took on the role of caretaker to her stepfather. This meant helping him with his grief and moving him closer to her. The drinking was beginning to become unmanageable. In September 2017, she discovered the upside of quitting drinking through a Google search that led her to Holly Whittaker and Annie Grace.   Upon discovering that going alcohol free could be a good thing, Robyn began to read a lot of quit lit and found podcasts. She told her husband about her struggles and felt a weight lift immediately. A few months later she joined Café RE and being part of a community was life changing. There were several stops and starts and she almost gave up quitting just before the announcement of the first Ditching the Booze course. That was the fuel Robyn needed to try again.   Recovery Elevator You took the elevator down, you gotta take the stairs back up. We can do this.   Café RE RE on Instagram Sobriety Tracker iTunes     

Fellow Wisconsinite and sober coach Heather Lowe loved the way alcohol made her feel from a very young age. She kept her fears that she might have a problematic relationship with alcohol under wraps for decades, until a flurry of life changes and tragedies led to her begin to ‘drink her grief' instead of feeling it. Heather wanted to blame everything but alcohol for the ways in which she felt like she was losing her grip, so much so that she began to try ‘sober experiments' to prove to herself that alcohol wasn't the problem. She was surprised to find, though, that she was feeling better and better during her periods of sobriety.Quitting for real felt terrifying. A longtime party girl, Heather couldn't imagine losing friends through such a big life change. The honest truth was that she did lose friends, but she developed a much more important friendship along the way - a deep and meaningful friendship with herself. Now seven years sober, Heather works with women in all stages of sobriety to help them navigate their own sober journeys. She wants you to know: There is so much potential in sobriety.

Welcome to a grab bag episode of the Travis Makes Money podcast, where Travis and producer Eric riff on the reality behind success—highlighting why business is the great equalizer for anyone willing to put in the work. Rather than featuring a singular guest, this episode is a candid discussion between Travis and Eric, full of humor, pop culture, and philosophical digs about work ethic, optionality, the nature of talent, and actionable (if often ignored) business wisdom. They use standup comedy and pop references as a lens on entitlement, the “special snowflake” myth, and the sometimes mind-numbing monotony behind real progress. On this episode we talk about: Why most people settle for being a cog and what it actually takes to “opt out” Daniel Tosh's take on employment, entitlement, and the myth of guaranteed fame The difference between success in business versus creative arts: luck, timing, and talent Why simple, repetitive business actions (doing the boring work) are the true formula for income The reason people mock Gary Vee's advice, but why doing the basics still actually works Top 3 Takeaways Most people are held back not by talent or opportunity, but by their own acceptance of mediocrity and avoidance of repetitive, boring work that creates options and freedom. Business is fundamentally a learnable, math-like skill: boring, repeatable actions generate income better than “waiting for your shot.” Freedom requires you to learn how to make money outside of a paycheck—otherwise, you'll always be forced to trade your time for someone else's goals. Notable Quotes "The barrier to entry isn't talent; it's being willing to do the boring, repetitive work that most people constantly avoid." "For creative fields like acting or music, sometimes world-class talent never gets a shot—business isn't a zero-sum game that way." "You have to put yourself in a position to have options. Staying broke is another way of saying you decided to let someone else define your ceiling." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Following Monday's controversial episode about why "everything in moderation" is terrible advice, this Q&A addresses your biggest fears and questions about moving beyond the moderation mindset. From concerns about eating "everything in sight" to handling unsupportive family members, we dive into the practical psychology of food freedom and internal awareness.Important Points Covered:The Permission Paradox: Why giving yourself full permission to eat anything actually reduces food obsession over time, and what to expect during the initial "testing the waters" phase.Reconnecting with Internal Cues: How to rebuild trust in your body's hunger and satisfaction signals using the 1-10 scale method, and why your body already knows how much it needs.Handling Trigger Foods: The difference between temporary avoidance and permanent restriction, plus how to identify whether the food itself or the emotions around it are the real trigger.Dealing with Unsupportive People: Scripts for handling family and friends who don't understand why "moderation" advice doesn't work for everyone, and why you don't need their permission to heal your relationship with food.Building Self-Awareness: Practical steps for developing the ability to distinguish between physical hunger and emotional hunger, even if you feel completely disconnected from your body's signals right now.The Consciousness vs. Compulsion Goal: Understanding that food freedom means being able to choose any food from a place of awareness, not automatic reaction or restriction-driven rebellion.Ready to move beyond generic "moderation" advice and into an approach that actually works with your psychology? Start with one simple practice this week: before eating, ask yourself "Am I physically hungry or am I feeling something else?" Don't judge your answer - just start building awareness. Your relationship with food is about to transform from the inside out.Send your questions for future Q&A episodes - the more specific, the better. Your question might be exactly what someone else needs to hear.Episode Length: 11 minutesBest For: People ready to move beyond traditional diet advice and develop internal food awareness

A growing 25% of U.S. adults—childfree or permanently childless—face unique aging challenges without traditional family support. In the Positive Aging Community's October 29, 2025 webinar, moderated by Steve Gurney, experts Dr. Sara Zeff Geber, PhD, and Dr. Jay Zigmont, CFP®, unpacked financial, legal, and social strategies for thriving as "solo agers."## Redefining Solo Aging: Empowerment Over StigmaGeber, who coined "solo aging" 12 years ago, shared her wake-up call: Married but childless, she realized "there was going to be nobody left behind" in a crisis. Ditching the painful "elder orphans" label, she promotes "solo aging" as neutral and proactive. "It doesn't put a negative spin on things. It just works," she said. Surveys show childfree solo agers crave deeper connections, outliving networks due to longevity gains.Geber urges building social communities early: "Build your network now—before health declines." Retirement or moves often disrupt ties, but villages, cohousing, and apps like Snug (for check-ins) help.## Tailored Financial and Legal SafeguardsZigmont, founder of Childfree Wealth (four years strong), exposed flaws in standard planning: It assumes kids. "It's bad advice," he warned. His new Childfree Trust fills the gap, serving as nationwide medical/financial power of attorney, executor, and trustee for $999/year.Via "care docs," it captures wishes for activation in emergencies—like hospital calls triggering pet sitters or asset management. A survey of 600+ childfree adults? Less than 20% have wills. Zigmont partners with trust firms for scalability: "We're that person when friends can't be."Hybrid approach: Lean on chosen family for daily support, pros for heavy lifts like long-term care. For legacies sans heirs, opt for "warm hand" giving (live philanthropy) over cold bequests.## Actionable Takeaways from AttendeesChat buzzed with queries: International travel? Trust handles it. No relatives? Free tools like freewill.com start basics. Pets? Line up immediate caregivers. Resources flowed—Aging Life Care (aginglifecare.org), Five Wishes directives, Area Agencies on Aging.As one participant noted: "I'm more worried about community than money." Geber and Zigmont agree: Plan now for dignity.For more, visit sarazeffgeber.com or childfreetrust.com. Solo aging? It's liberated control.

This week we're tackling one of the most persistent wellness myths: that cutting carbs is essential for weight loss. We dive into what carbs actually are, why they became the enemy, what the science really says about low-carb diets, and the health benefits of keeping wholegrains in your life. We also explore powerful new findings from a 30-year Finnish study showing that unhealthy habits like smoking, drinking and inactivity don't just affect your future. They start impacting your quality of life by your mid-thirties. But the good news is that changing course earlier can make all the difference. Plus, with headlines about 28-year-olds getting facelifts and cosmetic surgery on the rise, we ask why so many of us are feeling pressure to change our appearance, and how we can reclaim confidence and care in a filtered world. Finally, we revisit the rapeseed oil debate, where the fear comes from, and what the science really says about cooking oils and inflammation. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ever wonder why some foods feel impossible to stop eating? We pull back the curtain on how ultra-processed products are engineered to hook your taste buds, spike your blood sugar, and keep you coming back—while quietly nudging up your risk for type 2 diabetes, mood swings, and gut disruption. With nutritionist Julie Ruelle from Go Coco, we translate the science into everyday choices that protect your hormones, energy, and sanity.We start by separating helpful processing—like freezing vegetables or turning milk into yogurt—from ultra-processed foods packed with dyes, stabilizers, artificial sweeteners, and ingredients your grandparents wouldn't recognize. Julie breaks down the label tricks behind words like “healthy” and “vegan,” and shows how to scan ingredient lists before nutrition panels. From there, we explore the gut-brain axis: why additives and quick carbs can inflame your microbiome, trigger cravings, and derail your mood and focus. You'll learn how probiotic foods (yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut) and prebiotic fibers (whole grains, beans, veggies, fruit) rebuild your gut—and how noticeable improvements often start within two weeks. We share practical ideas: replace the 60-gram sugar coffee drink with a home version using cinnamon and vanilla, upgrade cereal by choosing short-ingredient options and adding nuts and berries, and swap fruit bars for whole fruit plus seeds. We also talk organic priorities for meats and dairy, and why calorie counting can mislead you when nutrient density is the bigger lever.If you're ready to step off the sugar-crash roller coaster and build meals that steady your energy and mood, this conversation gives you the roadmap—clear, doable, and built for real life.

In this powerful episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady, CEO of Harcourts Auctions, sits down with Erica Jevons Sizemore, founder of Sizemore Residential in Raleigh, North Carolina — a top-producing agent who's redefining what real estate leverage really means. Consistently ranking among the top 20 Keller Williams agents in the Carolinas, Erica's business model proves that doing more doesn't have to mean doing less for clients.From her early career in finance and marketing to leading one of the most efficient boutique operations in the Triangle area, Erica shares how she's scaled her business through relationships and strategic leverage, not massive teams or automation overload. She opens up about the systems that allow her to maintain personal touch at high volume, how she hires for alignment over experience, and why she believes being “too far from the transaction” is the greatest mistake top agents can make.Together, Ben and Erica unpack the evolution of the Raleigh real estate market — from its post-pandemic surge to its new plateau — and explore what true operational scalability looks like when your reputation is your brand. Erica also offers a candid look into mentorship, team culture, and why she's betting that authentic service will always outlast shortcut models and recruiting pyramids.Whether you're a solo agent struggling with growth or a team leader wondering how to scale without losing your identity, this conversation will challenge how you think about leverage, client relationships, and sustainable business.Timestamps & Key Topics:[00:00:00] – Introducing Erica Sizemore and the Raleigh Market[00:02:00] – From Finance & Marketing to Full-Time Real Estate[00:05:45] – The Power of Relationships and Long-Term Leverage[00:09:20] – How to Scale Without Sacrificing Service[00:12:30] – Hiring Smart: Why Personality Beats Experience[00:16:00] – Balancing Profitability and Performance[00:20:10] – Why Erica Doesn't Believe in “Buyer's Agents”[00:24:00] – Mentorship, Retention, and the Fear of Losing People[00:27:40] – Industry Insights: Compass, Anywhere, and AI in Real Estate[00:31:00] – Homeownership's Next Era and Generational Shifts[00:34:00] – The Future of Real Estate Leverage

With gas prices going up all over the country, there's debate over whether households should make the switch to electricity. Contact Energy recently revealed it's hiking gas prices by an average of 17 percent, as the decline in production has hit faster and harder than expected. Master Plumbers CEO Greg Wallace says making the switch is a big decision - and could set households back by thousands of dollars. "The costs are anything between five and a half to $10,000 dollars to change over, so that capital investment is a considerable investment, and that payback takes some time."

What happens when quitting drinking saves your life but ruins your marriage? Samuel thought stopping drinking would fix everything, but it actually revealed that his relationship couldn't survive the person he was becoming. His drinking story is terrifying—regular blackouts, waking up in strangers' beds, traumatic incidents that destroyed his wife's trust. But when he finally found freedom using This Naked Mind, he made an unexpected discovery: quitting alcohol unlocks creativity and triggers a cascade of positive changes.

How to get out of your own way.   Sometimes the necessary thing for becoming an intuitive eater isn't more mindfulness skills or gentle nutrition strategies - it's letting go of certain behaviors.    In this episode, I'm outlining the 5 key things that I had to quit doing that cleared the path for me to fully make peace with food and become an intuitive eater. Quitting each of these things felt uncomfortable in the moment, but it was exactly what I needed in order to break free from the grip that diet culture still had on me.   If you've ever felt stuck trying to figure out how to eat things like ice cream or your favorite potato chips without going overboard or still feeling guilty, or afraid to let go of your bathroom scale because it makes you feel “safe” to know what's happening with your weight, then this episode is going to show you what's possible when you choose to let go of these behaviors and deepen your trust with yourself and your body.   3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:

In this Fitness Friday episode on the Habits and Hustle podcast, Sal Di Stefano joins me to break down the science of blood sugar control, why intermittent fasting is "a terrible way to lose weight," and the shocking truth about cardio versus strength training for fat loss. We also unpack the biggest mistake women make when tracking progress: obsessing over the scale instead of body composition. Sal explains why 40% of weight lost through cardio comes from muscle, shares a study where strength training alone beat cardio AND strength training combined for fat loss, and reveals why psychologists now prescribe high-protein breakfasts to anxious patients. Sal Di Stefano is a fitness expert with over 20 years of personal training experience and co-host of the Mind Pump podcast, one of the top-rated fitness shows in the world. What we discuss: How protein at breakfast controls blood sugar and reduces anxiety throughout the day The two-question filter for any fitness advice: "Will I do it?" and "Is it realistic?" Intermittent fasting's original purpose and why it fails for weight loss Cortisol addiction and the binge-restrict cycle fasting creates When cold plunges hurt more than help for overstressed people Cardio vs strength training: why 40% of cardio weight loss comes from muscle The study where strength training alone beat cardio for fat loss Ditching the scale: better metrics for tracking body transformation Thank you to our sponsor: Therasage: Head over to therasage.com and use code Be Bold for 15% off  Air Doctor: Go to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code HUSTLE for up to $300 off and a 3-year warranty on air purifiers.

Here are the top 5 takeaways from this episode with Nicole Loughlin of Loughlin Law P.A.:* Ditching the Billable Hour for Predictable Fees: Nicole transitioned her estate planning and probate practice away from hourly billing to a hybrid model with flat fees and a sliding scale based on statutory guidelines. This approach provides clients with predictability, reduces billing disputes, and aligns incentives for efficiency.* Automation and Efficient Client Management: Nicole has heavily automated her law firm's intake, lead management, and client follow-up processes using tools like Kanban boards and practice management software (Lawcus). This ensures a consistent client experience, improves conversion rates, and keeps cases moving efficiently.* Customer Service as a Differentiator: Exceptional customer service is central to Nicole's practice. She offers proactive check-ins, regular follow-ups, and responsive communication, often surprising clients with the level of attention and support—much of which could be packaged as a subscription offering in the future.* Work-Life Integration and Flexibility: Nicole built her practice to accommodate her role as a mother, prioritizing flexibility and work-life integration. She challenges the traditional law firm model, demonstrating that it's possible to have a successful legal career while being present for family, and encourages others—especially women—to do the same.* Openness to Technology and Continuous Improvement: While Nicole has automated many aspects of her practice, she remains open to further streamlining, especially as new tools become available. She balances automation with personalized service, ensuring high-quality work product and client satisfaction, and sees room for future enhancements as her practice evolves.__________________________Learn more about Nicole Loughlin.Want to maximize your law firm?

“I really felt like alcohol was the one thing that was keeping me from being the person that I wanted to be."If you've ever wondered how alcohol might be impacting your ability to show up fully in your life, or if you're just curious about making any change that feels a little scary, this episode is for you. I sat down with Sumner Brooks, a registered dietitian, mom, and author of How to Raise an Intuitive Eater, who bravely shares her story of quitting alcohol and how it changed everything from her mental health to her parenting and beyond.While we usually focus on food and body image on Diet Culture Rebel, today we zoom out to explore what it means to get curious about anything that might be getting in the way of living your fullest, most connected life. Sumner opens up about what finally made sobriety "stick” for her after years of trying, how vulnerability paved the way for real change, and the actual joy and presence she discovered in sobriety.We also talk about how ingrained alcohol is in our daily lives and our culture, what it looks like to navigate those familiar “Why aren't you drinking?” comments, and where food and alcohol are similar (and importantly, different) when it comes to compulsion, habituation, and addiction. Sumner's story is a powerful reminder that even if everything looks fine on the outside, you're allowed to want more peace and presence on the inside.No matter what you're working on - food, alcohol, or something entirely different - I invite you to go into this episode with curiosity and self-compassion. Sometimes, you don't even know when you need to hear something until you do.What You'll Learn:How Sumner realized alcohol was keeping her from showing up in the life she worked so hard to buildThe role of vulnerability and community storytelling in making big life changesWhy “mommy wine culture” is so normalized, and how that intersects with diet culture's mixed messages about food and alcoholHow reading other women's stories helped Sumner finally quit drinking for goodHow sobriety changed Sumner's relationship with herself, her parenting, and her ability to be fully presentThe real differences between intuitive eating and “intuitive drinking”, and why abstinence from alcohol is not the same as cutting out foodsThank you so much to Sumner for sharing her truth so openly and authentically. If this episode sparked anything for you about drinking, food, parenting, or just wanting more presence in your life, hold onto that curiosity and let it guide your next step, even if it's small.Check out Sumner's book, How to Raise an Intuitive Eater: Raising the Next Generation with Food and Body Confidence.Come back next week for another episode and connect with me over on Instagram at @diet.culture.rebel.Struggling with food, but not sure where to start?You don't have to feel 100% ready to get support.

Karen Salmansohn is a celebrated author, behavioral change expert, and founder of NotSalmon.com, with over 2 million books and courses sold and more than 1.5 million followers online. Known for blending psychological research, neuroscience, philosophy, and signature humor, she's coached millions to ditch “near-life experiences” and start living fully and intentionally. Her new book, Your To-Die-For Life, invites readers to use mortality awareness—not as morbid fear, but as bold motivation to rethink priorities, clarify values, and finally take action on what matters most. Karen reveals how the death of her father led to a “near-life experience” epiphany—a wake-up call to stop living on autopilot and embrace life with meaning, presence, and urgency. Why writing your own eulogy (with her playful Mad Libs template) is a powerful, practical exercise for clarifying what you want your legacy to be. The “alphabet” of regret-proof core values—authentic, brave, curious, discerning, empathic love, fun, and grateful—and how to translate them into identity-based habits to overcome fear and pursue bold goals, including wealth. Science-backed behavioral strategies for making changes that stick, creating habits tied to core identity, and using cognitive dissonance to motivate positive action. Karen's process for focusing on a handful of values that truly matter—reverse-engineered from research on the top regrets of the dying, so listeners can proactively avoid them. Insightful stories from her bestselling books, her career pivot from advertising and screenwriting, and practical ways to make “someday” goals into today's actions. How boldness, intentionality, and self-definition are critical not only for personal happiness, but for building wealth and a life with no major regrets.
