You isolate, you feel disgusting, you assume everyone hates you, and the spiral gets worse.In this video, I share my highest-conviction strategies for rebuilding hygiene during depression—without making it another reason to hate yourself.If you've been ashamed about this, I want you to hear it clearly: you are not alone.

The person you see in your head when you think “me” probably isn't you.Most of us don't perceive ourselves accurately—we see a distorted, unrealistically negative version. Not because it's true… but because your brain is trying (and failing) to protect you from pain.In this episode I explain “The Magnet”: the force that pulls your self-concept downward after experiences like rejection, failure, and embarrassment—so you'll “reject yourself first” before the world can do it.It's a defense mechanism… but it comes with two brutal costs:You trade short, sharp pain for a lifetime of dull painYou start preemptively opting out of opportunities, connection, growth, and visibilityIf you live with chronic self-criticism, low self-esteem, or an internal “lowlight reel” that plays on repeat… this episode will help you interrupt it.If my podcast has helped, my new book, The Light Between the Leaves, goes even deeperNext Steps:
Why does weight loss work… and then not stick? So many women can lose weight — but almost no one is taught how to stay consistent long enough to maintain it. In this episode, we're breaking down why chasing results and trying to lose weight fast is usually the very thing that wrecks your long-term progress. We talk about why motivation fades, why most “resets” fail, and how to build a simple routine around your nutrition and workouts that actually fits real life. Because the goal isn't just to lose weight — it's to improve your metabolism, build habits you can repeat, and create results that last. If you're tired of starting over every Monday and ready to simplify your weight loss, this episode will show you how.

Like I was pouring water into a bucket with a hole in it.Eventually I realized something that changed how I live:Some people have a different emotional operating system.Not “better.” Not “worse.”Just different—more reactive to all emotional stimuli, and more prone to mood “decay” when there's nothing actively lifting it.If you've ever felt like your brain drains happiness faster than it “should”… this one's for you.If my podcast has helped, my new book, The Light Between the Leaves, goes even deeperNext Steps:

Head to Grow Therapy to find your dream therapist today!Sometimes suicidal thoughts aren't about not enjoying life. Sometimes they come from something darker:“I don't deserve to be here.”“Maybe dying would be the right thing.”In this video, I challenge that logic with one question that tends to collapse it:"Would the rule you're using against yourself still make sense if you applied it to all of humanity?"Because most people live under two sets of standards:1. the ones they apply to everyone, and2. the brutal, private “me-only” rules they'd never apply to anyone elseI unpack:- the “holds up at scale” filter (and why it matters)- how self-judgment becomes a private “death-squad” standard- why “earning the right to live” is a dangerous framework- the question that exposes whether your rule is actually universal—or just self-hatred dressed up as moralityIf you're struggling right now: please don't do this alone.

Steve Smith is a friend of mine. He runs Potter's Inn, which provides soul care. Much of Steve's time is spent with people running large organizations, from mega church pastors to Fortune 500 CEOs. People who as Steve says, live much of their lives in the white water of life. And living this way takes a toll on your soul. Years ago, I actually argued with Steve. I said I was living in a way to keep myself strong so I could endure the constant white water. And I did. Until I couldn't. Until I burnt out and caused plenty of collateral damage in my life. Recently Steve sent me a book of poetry he had written. He's published many books, but with poetry he feels he can say more with less. The book is called, Greening: Poems In The Unfolding Of Our Lives. And the focus is on unfolding through the seasons and reasons of our lives. Steve has walked intimately with so many people. Dramatically successful people as our culture tends to define success. But Steve walks with them as their lives unravel and their identities unfold. In recent years, Steve has had some losses and gone through his own unfolding. As my own life has unfolded, I brought Steve on to discuss some of the concepts of his poetry book, and his life experience. Greening is a term he relates to our flourishing, vitality, well-being, and emotional health. As a speaker, spiritual director, and author, Steve offers soul care and spiritual care through many avenues.

#306 Most gym owners don't struggle because they aren't working hard. They struggle because they haven't made a few key leadership decisions that drive everything else including their finances. In this episode, Billy breaks down three disciplines great gym owners practice that lead to more profit, less stress, and better long-term decision-making. Two of them aren't "financial" on the surface but Billy explains how every one of them shows up in the numbers. If you want a gym that supports your life financially, it starts with how you decide, lead, and operate. What You'll Learn: Why deciding what you actually want is a financial decision How values-based leadership directly impacts profit and stress Why most money problems are really decision problems How strong gym owners think long-term while still managing today Why simplicity beats complexity when it comes to money Key Takeaway: Profit follows clarity. And clarity starts with leadership, not spreadsheets. Listen now and ask yourself: Which one of these am I currently neglecting?

In vitro fertilization, or IVF, can cost upwards of $20,000 in California — for one cycle. For that reason, it's put financial strain on many California families and been completely out of reach for others, including couples who have faced insurance denials because they are LGBTQ+. But a California law that went into effect this month, SB 729, requires large employer-sponsored health plans to cover up to three cycles of IVF, along with other infertility services, regardless of sexual orientation. We'll hear what the new law means for family planning in California, and for you: Does this put IVF within reach for you? What's been your experience with IVF?

The lag between effort and improvement is longer than you think, and that delay is where people quit… right before the payoff.In this episode, I explain:- Why effective therapy skills often feel “useless” at first- How impatience keeps you cycling through tools without using any long enough to work- Why quick fixes (alcohol, porn, shopping, gambling, etc.) feel tempting—and why they backfire- The mindset shift that makes therapy skills actually stick- A practical way to commit to skills without obsessing over results- If you've ever thought, “I tried that and it didn't work,” this is for you.Next Steps: If my videos have helped, my new book, The Light Between the Leaves, goes even deeperhttps://bit.ly/DrScottLightBetweentheLeavesYT
THE COLD WAR SHIFT: GEORGE KENNAN'S STRATEGIC PIVOT Colleague Professor Gary J. Bass. By 1948, the trial's context shifted dramatically with the onset of the Cold War and the Chinese Civil War. George Kennan, the architect of containment, visited Tokyo to convince MacArthur that democratization was less important than establishing Japan as a strong anti-communist bulwark against the Soviets. Kennan argued that the US must secure Japan as a strategic prize rather than focus on China, which was falling to Mao. This "reverse course" prioritized stability and industrial strength over the initial progressive reforms, viewing Japan as the essential anchor for Americanforeign policy in the Pacific.
