A former broadcaster turned software developer based in Dunedin, Brendan describes a lifelong struggle with weight, the shame and “try harder” messaging, and the moment he realised the issue wasn't a character flaw—it was the advice. After being pointed toward Professor Tim Noakes and a low-carb approach, Brendan ran a deliberate self-experiment: change the food first, track the results, and let hunger be the guide. The payoff wasn't just the scale—it was satiety, routine, confidence, and a practical framework for staying the course when life (and “eat normal”) pressure shows up.Highlights / topics coveredWhy “eat less, move more” failed him—and what shifted when the food changed firstThe early wins: scales, clothing fit, and appetite finally calming down“Success over compliance”: choosing what works over what's orthodoxBuilding guardrails: simple routines, fewer decisions, and sustainable structureNavigating social pressure, setbacks, and the long game of metabolic health Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden
Holly Parkes and Greg Johnson are two of the most purpose-driven people you'll ever hear from.Holly Parkes first came on the podcast during one of the toughest times of her life, sharing what it was really like trying to support someone battling a serious brain injury and searching for answers that never seemed to come. Greg is a former NZ SAS operator who spent years exposed to explosive blasts, before discovering his own brain injury had been misdiagnosed for years.Together, they are now doing incredible work helping players, veterans, and everyday people who have struggled with brain injuriesFrom believing there was no hope to discovering a clinic that is actually helping people recover, this conversation is full of knowledge, and deeply important.In this episode we dive into:- Greg's SAS career and how repeated blast exposure damaged his brain- Being misdiagnosed with mental health issues instead of brain injury- What brain injury actually does to your body, energy, personality and relationships- Why so many athletes and veterans are slipping through broken pathways- How Holly desperately searched for help and finally found a clinic doing things differently- The Brain Health & Biofeedback Clinic in Dunedin and how it works- Real people they are helping right now and the changes they're already seeing- Why brain injuries are not a death sentence- What needs to change in sport, medicine, and support systemsAnd heaps more.As you'll hear these two are super passionate about this topic which I know is a topic of relevance for many. The best thing about this episode is that if you are concerned or worried about your head there is hope! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

¿Por qué cada enero nos prometemos cambiar... y fracasamos a los pocos días? ¿Te suena familiar? Llega el nuevo año, y con él los propósitos: comer mejor, hacer ejercicio, aprender idiomas... pero cuando nos atamos las zapatillas para correr, el mundo se vuelve pesado y la motivación desaparece. ¿Por qué ocurre esto? En este episodio vamos a desmitificar la fuerza de voluntad como herramienta principal para el cambio personal. Hablaremos sobre el agotamiento del ego, el poder del autocontrol, y cómo convertir metas en sistemas sostenibles sin caer en la trampa de la autoexigencia excesiva o la culpa. Descubrirás: Qué es realmente la fuerza de voluntad y por qué confiar solo en ella puede ser un error. Cómo funciona el autocontrol como habilidad y no como don místico. La importancia de elegir nuestras batallas para evitar el desgaste emocional. Qué nos enseñan los experimentos de Dunedin, el malvavisco de Stanford o el famoso estudio de las galletas contra rábanos. Cómo el entorno, los sistemas y los hábitos valen más que la motivación espontánea. La teoría de la motivación temporal de Piers Steel y cómo aplicarla en tu día a día. Vamos a proponerte un enfoque mucho más amable, estratégico y eficaz para acercarte a tus metas personales. Cambiar no es una cuestión de voluntad heroica, sino de diseñar mejor tu día a día. Si sientes que no puedes confiar en tu fuerza de voluntad, este episodio es para ti. ✅ PALABRAS CLAVE (SEO) fuerza de voluntad,autocontrol,psicología del hábito,cambios sostenibles,propósitos de año nuevo,ego depletion,hábitos saludables,agotamiento mental,procrastinación,podcast ansiedad,salud mental,teoría motivación,Piers Steel,James Clear,hábitos atómicos,sistemas vs metas,autocuidado emocional,ansiedad y autocontrol,conducta humana,cambios de vida,organización personal,hábitos efectivos,neurociencia y hábitos,disciplina personal,malvavisco experimento HASHTAGS #fuerzadevoluntad #hábitospositivos #psicología #autocontrol #ansiedad #motivaciónreal TÍTULOS ALTERNATIVOS CON FÓRMULA CLICKBAIT 4 hábitos que van a ayudarte a cambiar tu vida sin fuerza de voluntad ⚠️ Deja de usar tu fuerza de voluntad: esto es lo que realmente funciona Esta forma de alcanzar tus metas cambiará tu vida para siempre 5 cosas que nunca deberías hacer si quieres mantener tus propósitos ¿Por qué fracasan tus propósitos de año nuevo?

As the Sami community (Norway) struggles to protect ancestral lands from the building of a damn in 1979, Oslo detective Hans Sorensen arrives in the north of the country to investigate sabotage on a damn. Then a body is discovered, and Sorensen has to delve into his own past and heritage. He is Sami but no longer immersed in the culture, and Sorensen is also mourning the recent death of his wife, so he's hesitant to return to his hometown. He ends up following the trail of two women, a journalist and a musician, and discovers the writings of a relative, a real-life Sami author who wrote about his struggle to survive.
