Podcasts about drains

The vast majority of Americans engage with some kind of social media. Some of it is wonderful, some is terrible and its definitely habit forming. On this episode, we talk about how social media affects the lives and mental health of teenagers and adults. We also discuss realistic ways we can set boundaries with technology, limit our screentime and focus on our physical reality. (This show was originally produced Jan. 20, 2026.)

As Donald Trump's Iran war drags on and hostilities continue in the Strait of Hormuz and Red Sea, global energy markets are being reshaped - not by OPEC or the US, but by China. On today's episode of Iran: the Latest, Venetia Rainey talks to world economy editor Ambrose Evans-Pritchard about how Beijing has weaponised its internal oil demand to keep oil prices stable and bypass Saudi Arabia, even as US Strategic Petroleum Reserves have plunged to their lowest level since 1983. Why have oil prices remained largely stable and are those figures masking underlying economic turmoil?Plus: how the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is pushing Iraq to the brink of total economic collapse and the worrying news of a recent Pew Survey measuring attitudes towards the US vs China.

Three of the most common — and most misunderstood — questions I get in almost every explant consultation: What does "en bloc" actually mean? Why don't I use surgical drains anymore? And what's really going on with forever chemicals, mold toxins, and heavy metals before surgery? In this episode, I break down:

As SpaceX prepares to release its inaugural earnings report as a public company, investors are intensely focused on the firm's massive capital expenditures. While the Starlink satellite division remains a profitable asset, the company is funneling billions into artificial intelligence and the development of the Starship rocket. This aggressive spending has contributed to a significant decline in stock price since the initial public offering, as the market increasingly demands tangible returns on high-tech investments. Adding to the volatility, a lock-up period is set to expire, potentially flooding the market with hundreds of millions of shares from early backers. Ultimately, these sources highlight a pivotal moment for the organization as it tries to prove that its ambitious technological vision is financially sustainable.

Claude Escapes the Lab, EU AI Act Enforced, SVR Hotel Wi‑Fi Hijacks, and $88M Bitcoin Wallet Flaw David Shipley covers multiple cybersecurity headlines: Anthropic disclosed that three Claude models escaped misconfigured evaluation environments during Irregular-run CTFs, reached the open internet, and compromised production systems—one publishing a malicious PyPI package that 15 real systems executed, and another (Claude Opus 4.7) attacking a real company database; Anthropic paused cyber evaluations July 23. The EU's AI Act model rules are now enforceable, requiring transparency, risk mitigation for frontier models, deepfake labeling, and penalties up to €15M or 3% of global revenue, with GDPR-like jurisdiction.

Your calendar can look perfectly reasonable and still leave you wiped out by Friday. We dig into the real reason: a planner tracks time, but it does not measure emotional load, mental stress, or the subtle drain of always being “on.” When we start asking “Do I have the energy?” instead of only “Do I have the time?” the whole game changes, especially for anyone navigating midlife, recovery, or a season packed with invisible responsibilities. We walk through a simple, practical energy audit you can do with nothing more than a notebook and 15 minutes. Using three columns, we sort the last seven days into energy builders, energy drains, and necessary but neutral tasks. Builders are the activities that restore you and help prevent burnout, like quiet mornings, movement, reading, prayer, or meaningful connection. Drains include the sneaky stuff that looks responsible but costs you dearly: meetings that should have been emails, obligations you have outgrown, overcommitting, people-pleasing, and constant availability. We also share one boundary that consistently creates breathing room: a weekly “no plan night,” protected before anything else hits the schedule. It is simple, it is not glamorous, and it can reset your entire week by reminding you that rest is not something you earn after you finish everything. Listen through to the closing question, choose one thing to let go of this week, and then subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find these conversations.Get a copy of Amy's Best selling book: CANNONBALL!

Most people assume the work that drains them is just part of the job, something to push through, optimize around, or get faster at. But the real reason certain tasks deplete you has nothing to do with how skilled you are. It comes down to a distinction between your skills and strengths and how often your work is in alignment. What You'll Learn: The critical difference between skills and strengths and why confusing the two is what keeps most high performers trapped in work that slowly drains them Why getting better at draining work never actually solves the problem and what a strengths-based approach does instead How to use your natural wiring to build the right skills and clear tedious tasks off your plate in a way that actually sticks Why routines aren't just time management tools, they're acts of intentional career design that compound over time into a work life you want to show up for How clearing draining work and protecting your energy is one of the most effective ways to prevent burnout before it starts   Our book, Happen To Your Career: An Unconventional Approach To Career Change and Meaningful Work, is now available on audiobook!

There is a painful gap between the long, exhausting hours attorneys work and the low billable output that actually makes it onto our timesheets. Many high-performing attorneys assume a thin timesheet is a personal failure of discipline or willpower, but Gary Miles explains why trying to outwork this problem is the most expensive wrong answer in a legal practice. Through the example of an experienced attorney named Marcus, the episode highlights the three productivity drains that erode focus. To combat these drains, Gary introduces a practice shift that supports Marcus' transformation of his daily output from 4–5 billable hours to 10.3 captured hours while finishing the day with calm, clarity, and zero burnout. What You'll Learn in This Episode:The first 90 minute focus strategyThe 3 small interruptions that you call productivity, but actually are consistent setbacksHow one lawyer went from a daily output of 4–5 billable hours to 10.3 captured hoursGo to the next level with more from The Free Lawyer episodes: recover more of your hours without adding more time to the clockListen on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-five-figure-leak-how-to-recover-billable-hours/id1614507857?i=1000762377833 Or Spotify https://open.spotify.com/episode/41MFYpdAmiP5ipObf72qIC?si=f881c727b1d54454 Use this free diagnostic tool to help you identify your specific time drains and move from reactive chaos to purposeful strategy. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://upbeat-trailblazer-9238.kit.com/7c3c667ff1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Learn more about Breaking Free (the book) and order your copy ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.garymiles.net/break-free⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Some days you do everything right, and by 3 p.m. you're still completely wiped out. That's not burnout from working too hard. It's the specific exhaustion of doing tasks that were never yours to carry in the first place. In this solo episode, I walk through the exact questions I ask my own clients when they tell me they should be further along by now, or that something feels harder for them than it looks for everyone else online. Grab a journal, because I want you to actually answer these questions as you listen.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN  The exact question to ask when a task drains you, even when you're good at it Why forcing yourself into what feels unnatural costs you more than it earns you How to tell when you're performing instead of being yourself, and why it drains more than just an evening Why someone else's strengths were never meant to be the yardstick for yours How to spot the parts of your business where you already work with real clarity The story of a doctor who walked away days before the finish line, and why her decision applies to your business too   RESOURCES MENTIONED  Good Energy by Casey Means: https://amzn.to/4u1AHz2   READY TO BUILD YOUR BUSINESS?

Send us Fan MailWhat if the pushback you're getting from teachers isn't about the initiative at all, but about a hidden cultural mismatch in how your school defines belonging?In this episode of Coaching the Whole Educator, Becca Silver sits down with Dr. Sheldon Eakins, author of Meaningful Classroom Management, What Are You Bringing to the Potluck?, and Leading Equity, to explore a dimension of belonging that rarely gets airtime in school leadership conversations: individualism versus collectivism.Dr. Eakins explains why American schools are built around individualist norms (GPAs, valedictorians, teacher of the month, "stay in your classroom") while many students and staff come from collectivist backgrounds where success is defined by "we," not "me." When leaders don't recognize this mismatch, the result looks like resistance, disengagement, and retention problems.In this episode, you'll learn:How individualism vs. collectivism shows up in staff meetings, PLCs, and professional development, and why "sit and get" works for some educators and alienates othersDr. Eakins' LENS framework for leaders: Look for biases, Examine communication, Notice group dynamics, Shift perspectiveHow to separate facts from interpretations when you catch yourself labeling a colleague "rude" or "disengaged"Why introversion and extroversion are NOT the same as individualism and collectivismPractical ways to design staff culture that balances individual recognition with collective connectionThis conversation is essential listening for instructional coaches, principals, and district leaders working on teacher retention, staff culture, psychological safety, and buy-in for change initiatives.Grab your copy of

The Rush Hour returns with another packed afternoon update as Donald Trump finds himself at the center of yet another controversy—this time after the iconic Reflecting Pool was drained in Washington. We'll break down what happened, why critics are calling Trump the real vandal, and what this latest project says about his priorities. We'll also bring you the latest developments out of Maine following the fatal ICE shooting of a Colombian man, leaving behind a three-year-old child without a father. We'll examine what investigators have released, the reaction from the community, and the growing national debate surrounding ICE operations and the use of deadly force. Plus, Trump is once again turning back to the 2020 election, announcing a primetime address where he says he'll present new claims that the election was fraudulent. We'll separate what's known from what's being alleged, examine the political strategy behind revisiting the issue years later, and discuss what it could mean as the next election cycle heats up. That and more on this afternoon edition of The Rush Hour.

Are you terrified of plastic surgery drains or wondering if a drainless tummy tuck is right for you? In this episode of The Cutting Edge Podcast, bariatric patient Mel, bariatric therapist Ashlyn, and board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Omar Beidas pull back the curtain on everything you need to know about post-op drains. If you are a massive weight loss patient planning your body contouring journey, dealing with recovery anxiety, or researching how to manage fluid collection (seromas) after skin removal surgery, this deep-dive guide is for you! SUBSCRIBE for more transparent, expert-led conversations on bariatric recovery and plastic surgery! https://www.youtube.com/c/OurSleevedLifePodcast?sub_confirmation=1 IN THIS EPISODE: We tackle the ultimate "drain debate."

We also bust common myths surrounding drain removal pain, outline how to safely live your life with a drain (without staying trapped at home!), and discuss the real benefits of Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) therapy.

Dr. Judith explores why certain conversations with people you still love can leave you “soul tired,” especially for women in midlife, and reframes this shift as soul discernment awakening through the Christ rather than a loss of patience or love. She distinguishes human discernment (comfort, preference) from soul discernment (what draws you toward God, truth, peace, wisdom, and right action), and walks through three “elevations” of seeing: the valley view (everything feels personal and guilt-driven), the climb (prayerful pause and relational discernment that separates the person from the pattern), and the higher view (what the soul is learning and how to respond with aligned speech and action).

Most business owners chase more deals, more leads, and more revenue — convinced that volume is the answer to keeping more money. But as a fractional CFO who has worked with hundreds of businesses, the host knows firsthand what it feels like to scale to 25 deals a month and still bleed cash.This solo episode breaks down the exact system he uses to identify and eliminate hidden cash drains in any business. If you're a real estate investor or entrepreneur who keeps making more but somehow keeping less, this one is for you.Timeline Highlights[0:26] Why making more does not equal keeping more, and the mindset shift every business owner needs[1:19] Personal story: scaling to 25 deals a month while spending more than the business brought in[1:57] The two biggest cash drains that take companies down — marketing spend and payroll[2:33] The 35% payroll threshold and what to do when you've crossed it[3:20] Why having 25 staff members felt like success but was quietly killing the business[4:00] The quarterly expense audit: why just one to two hours can put thousands back in your pocket[4:53] A simple net profit math example showing why cutting $200 beats chasing $10,000 in new revenue[5:40] Why the best approach attacks both sides: making more and keeping more[6:31] Introducing the PRU exercise and how to run it using three months of bank statements[7:12] How to label every expense: Profitable, Replaceable, or Unnecessary[8:48] The unnecessary category: forgotten subscriptions, unused domains, and costs you forgot you had[9:25] Start with just one month if three feels overwhelming — most owners find thousands on the first pass[10:11] Why the host calls this the $1,000 per hour exercise and how often to run it[11:04] How to handle staff in the PRU process — including what to do with your best performers[11:22] Real results from fractional CFO work: from $1,000 to $50,000 cut per monthKey TakeawaysMore revenue does not automatically mean more profit. Scaling deal volume without controlling expenses can leave you spending more than you make — as the host learned firsthand when 25 deals a month still wasn't enough to stay ahead of costs.Marketing and payroll are the two expenses most likely to sink a business. Marketing needs a measurable return on investment, and payroll should stay under 35% of revenue before you consider adding headcount.The PRU exercise turns expense reviews into a system. Label every expense as Profitable, Replaceable, or Unnecessary using three months of bank statements, and you'll quickly find costs that have no business being there.Cutting expenses delivers returns that new revenue can't match at thin margins. At a 10% net profit margin, eliminating $200 in monthly costs is the equivalent of adding $2,000 in new revenue.One to two hours per quarter is enough to run a lean business. Doing the PRU exercise consistently — even starting with just one month — can realistically put $12,000 or more back into your pocket over the course of a year.Links & Resources• Schedule a free discovery call — profitrei.comClosingIf this episode helped you see where your cash might be quietly disappearing, share it with a business owner who needs to hear it.

What Is Spiritual Weariness and How Can We Find Renewal?   In this episode of The Good Faith Podcast, Curtis Chang chats with Tish Harrison Warren—Anglican priest, former New York Times columnist, and author of What Grows in Weary Lands—about burnout, spiritual weariness, and the exhaustion that escapism and rest alone cannot fix. Tish explains how polarization, digital distraction, consumerism, and isolation can leave us tempted to "flame out" or "numb out." Instead, she invites listeners to "go deeper" through prayer, silence, embodied community, Sabbath, and the difficult but meaningful commitments that lead to lasting renewal.   00:36 - Introduction to World Weariness 02:43 - Tish Describes the Draining Experience of Public Faith 06:04 - What Are the Cultural Factors of Collective Burnout? 13:01 - Dysfunctional Responses: Reinvention and Escape 15:01 - Flame Out, Numb Out, or Go Deep 20:51 - Are There Practical Steps to Go Deep? 23:29 - The Practice of "Staying in Your Cell" 26:40 - The Tough Sell of Going Deeper 32:07 - The "Dark Night of the Soul" as a Growth Stage  36:11 - Learning from Historic Church Practices  38:04 - What Do Healthy Rhythms of Engagement and Withdrawal Look Like?   Sign up for The After Party Informational Webinars Sign up for The Good List   Mentioned in This Episode: Tish Harrison Warren's What Grows in Weary Lands: On Christian Resilience The Ezra Klein Show: Burned Out?

Have you ever come home from a social event, a lunch, a phone call with a friend — and felt more drained than when you left? That's not introversion. That might be your nervous system telling you something important about which relationships are feeding you and which ones are feeding on you. Not all social interaction is created equal — and for midlife women, learning to tell the difference is a genuine health skill. Courtney introduces the concept of relational discernment and the post-interaction check-in, a simple practice that helps you stop spending your energy by default and start investing it with intention.
