This one gets personal. I share my story, growing up praised for performance, losing my athletic identity, spiraling into restriction, bingeing, and running myself into the ground. A coach tells me to lose weight, shame follows, and I chase “smaller” at all costs. The shift starts with one yes: a park workout. From there, I rebuilt myself. HIIT opens the door to movement; strength training changes everything. Lifting teaches me to take up space, eat for fuel, and measure progress by power, not a scale. I define what “enough” means on my terms.In this episode of Broads, I break down how mindset questions create momentum, why one decision beats perfection, and what real progress looks like, and spoiler: It's not what you've been told. If you feel stuck, this episode is your sign.

In the 291st session of In Class With Carr, we explore the question: Can America Continue? Fresh from a gathering with legendary civil rights attorney Fred Gray, we connect past and present to examine how a US Social Structure grounded and reliant on a global network of unequal labor and exclusion, is speeding its inevitable and perhaps dispositive existential crisis. We juxtapose broadly inclusive Ways of Knowing against the threat of religious extremism and nationalism, the erosion of goals of pluralistic governance, and the desperate advance of metaphors of culture war.

In this episode of Grow Think Tank, I explore the biggest ceo mistakes frequently make that can hinder their long-term success. Drawing from my experience as a CEO coach, I highlight the importance of leadership cultivation within teams and the detrimental effects of being too central to the business's value. I discuss how founder-led companies often face lower valuations and emphasize the need for delegation and empowerment to foster team ownership. I address how the instinct to control can lead to micromanagement, ultimately alienating high performers. Finally, I stress the significance of recognizing blind spots for effective leadership. Listeners are invited to my free training session to delve deeper into these strategies for overcoming common CEO challenges and enhancing growth. Biggest CEO Mistakes Being the Most Important Person Outworking the Problem Holding onto Control Being the Most Important Person In this episode of Grow Think Tank, I delve into the critical mistakes CEOs often make that can undermine long-term success. One of the first and most common is believing you must be the most important person in the business. If everything revolves around you, your company is likely less valuable than it could be. Research shows that founder-led businesses often receive a 30% lower valuation compared to those that run independently of their founders. Why? Businesses that rely too heavily on a single leader don't scale well and aren't attractive to investors or buyers. As a CEO coach, I help leaders step out of the spotlight and develop leadership within their teams. Creating value means building a company that thrives without you at the center, where leadership is distributed and the organization is resilient beyond one individual. Outworking the Problem In the early stages of a company, CEOs often get by through sheer effort. You face a problem, and you work harder. But as the business grows, this “outworking the problem” mindset becomes a liability. It's a mistake to think hustle alone will solve scaling challenges. Eventually, this leads to burnout, bottlenecks, and a team that doesn't grow because you're still doing all the heavy lifting. Instead, the focus must shift toward delegation and empowerment. Leadership is not about doing more; it's about enabling others to take ownership. This transition is where many founders struggle, but it's also where true growth begins. Holding onto Control Finally, we address a trap that many founders fall into: holding onto control for too long. In the early days, this level of control can help maintain quality and speed. But as your business scales, that same control can strangle progress. Micromanaging alienates high performers and slows innovation. I've seen it time and time again: capable leaders leave because they aren't trusted, and the company plateaus. Growth requires trust and trust means letting go. Transitioning from founder to CEO demands a shift in mindset. You have to evolve from being the person doing everything to the person who builds the team that does everything. That shift is hard but absolutely necessary. Final Thought If you're serious about becoming the kind of leader your growing company needs, it starts with identifying these blind spots. Throughout this episode, I share insights, experiences, and strategies to help you make the shift from founder to CEO. Join me in a free training session where we go deeper into each of these mistakes and how to overcome them so you can lead with intention and scale your business the right way.

In this episode, transformational coach and author Kelly Keefe joins Avik to unpack the deep connection between language, mindset, and manifestation. From struggling with self-doubt to leading thousands into empowerment, Kelly shares how the words we use shape the lives we lead. She explains why the brain seeks to confirm whatever story we tell it—whether empowering or disempowering—and how shifting language patterns like “I don't know” or “I have to” can alter our reality. Kelly offers practical tips on using affirmations effectively, aligning with your truth, and rewiring limiting beliefs through intentional self-talk. About the Guest:Kelly Keefe is the founder of The Heart Space, a transformational coach, energy healer, speaker, and author of Rise Above Fear. With over 20,000 hours in spiritual study and personal transformation, she helps people reframe their inner dialogue, overcome fear-based conditioning, and lead more empowered lives. Her work blends neuroscience, ancient wisdom, and embodiment practices to guide lasting change. Key Takeaways: The subconscious mind believes what you tell it—so language matters. “I don't know” and “I have to” are disempowering defaults. Effective affirmations must stretch belief but remain believable. Speaking affirmations in your own voice enhances rewiring. Self-reflection and better internal questions lead to better outcomes.

In this new episode #224 – Why Resentment Builds, I'm diving into one of those sneaky emotions that can quietly shape your mission and your life: resentment. We've all felt it—whether it's with a companion, a roommate, a family member, or even in marriage. Resentment often builds when we expect someone else to meet our needs instead of learning how to meet them ourselves. I'll share stories from my own life, experiences from missionaries in the field, and tools you can start using right away to shift from emotional childhood into emotional maturity. Together, we'll explore what resentment really is, why it keeps us stuck, and how to fill our own “gas tank” with validation, appreciation, and love—without waiting around for someone else to do it for us. If you're preparing, serving, or adjusting to life after your mission (or supporting someone who is), this episode will give you practical strategies to stop outsourcing your emotions, take ownership of your feelings, and create the confidence and freedom you're looking for.

Wil welcomes guest Ken Stemke, owner of Main Street Social in Libertyville, IL, an upscale Italian-American restaurant with its own wine label. Ken traces his hospitality spark to bussing tables in high school, then a 35-year career in banking that armed him with the financial discipline many restaurants lack. He shares how a seasoned team, empowerment, and a recent, internally driven menu refresh (60+ dishes tested) improved culture and guest experience. The convo dives into COVID cash-flow planning, POS frustrations, the importance of listening to staff and guests, policy headwinds like tip-credit changes, rising costs/tariffs, tech overreach, and why independent restaurants—and local coalitions—are essential to community life. Key Takeaways Banking → hospitality advantage: Ken's finance/accounting background gave him crucial cash-flow and planning skills most operators need but often lack. Seasoned staff pays off: With servers averaging ~40 in age and long tenures, May Street Social avoids much of the turnover drama. Empowerment drives innovation: Shifting decision-making to loyal team members led to a broad menu refresh without outside consultants. Manufacturing mindset: Treat each dish like a mini job—know costs, margins, and process control just as in production. Plan for storms: During COVID, Ken worked off daily cash-flows and prebuilt “Plan A/B/C” responses to policy changes. Policy ripple effects: Eliminating the tip credit (e.g., in Chicago) raises labor costs significantly and can hurt independents more than chains. Tariffs & uncertainty pinch demand: Cost shocks (produce, glass, wine) and scary headlines can temporarily depress traffic. Right-sized tech: Restaurants should resist feature bloat; deploy only tools that simplify ops (Ken is doubling down on using Schedulefly fully). POS matters: Weak reporting and lack of integrations create friction; handhelds and better data can smooth service pacing. Community is the moat: Independent restaurants anchor local identity; forming downtown/indie coalitions amplifies marketing and advocacy.

What does it really take to “disrupt divorce”? In this episode, Rhonda sits down with Jordan Rosenberg, a family law attorney from the Chicago area who believes the attorney–client relationship should be a true partnership — built on open communication, trust, and collaboration. Together, they pull back the curtain on what most attorneys wish their clients knew and how women can take a more empowered role in the process. You'll hear insights on: Why viewing your lawyer as a partner — not just a service provider — changes everything The power of organization (and how small clues, like a $5 savings account, can reveal much bigger financial issues) Why “the smartest people know when to ask for help” — and how that applies directly to divorce The importance of building the right team: legal, financial, and emotional support How to set realistic expectations — without slipping into worst-case-scenario thinking Why “trusting the process” doesn't mean handing over control, but staying actively engaged Jordan also shares one of his favorite quotes that perfectly fits this stage of life: FEAR = Forget Everything And Run, or Face Everything And Rise. This episode is packed with both practical tools and encouragement for anyone navigating the complexities of divorce.

Hello to you listening in Fremont, California!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.In college I was taught by lay faculty and Benedictine monks.  Today I follow Joan Chittister, an American Benedictine nun, theologian, author, and speaker who is known for being an outspoken advocate of justice, peace and equality focusing on the empowerment of women.In her book, The Monastic Heart - 50 Simple Practices for a Contemplative and Fulfilling Life, Chittister writes, “A spirituality of work is that process by which you finally come to know that your work is God's work, unfinished by God because God meant it to be finished by you.” I say my work is "helping women shape and share their story by discovering: Who am I? What's my why or work? How do I do my work differently?"But the notion of “spirituality of work” puts a different spin on things. Is this truly my work? If so, how is it meant to be finished by me?Story Prompt: What's your work and how will you finish it? Write that story! And tell it out loud!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us!

In this episode, Guy welcomed Karen Cheong, an energy healer who brilliantly broke down the complexities of our energy bodies and how trauma affects them. Karen emphasized that one cannot force an awakening on others as it is a personal journey, highlighting the importance of self-awareness and releasing unconscious blocks. The conversation dived deep into understanding the concept of awakening, the role of distortions in our lives, and how transcending these distortions can lead to profound shifts in both spiritual and physical realms. Karen also shed light on the significance of embracing our true infinite selves, and the collective shift in consciousness happening in the world today. About Karen: Karen Cheong is an international transformational speaker, writer, champion for self empowerment, and healer who has worked with thousands of people worldwide. After a health crisis in her early 20s catalysed her spiritual journey, she was driven by curiosity to explore the mystical and energetic systems that govern our experience—of ourselves, of others, and of life itself.  For over 25 years she integrated and applied deep inner work and learnings from some of the top names in the personal development space, as well as some of the more “out there” spiritual teachers, to a successful real estate business in San Francisco, California.  Despite the outward appearance of success, though, she still felt like something was missing—and that is when what she refers to as “frequency work” discovered her. By intensively releasing unconscious blocks she calls distortion patterns, she transformed not only the way her life looked, but the way her life felt. Momentum really started kicking in, and life became so much richer, so much fuller, and so much more expansive. During a life-changing 9 hour meditation she experienced a complete ego-death, fully merging back into the Oneness, where everything is inextricably interconnected. Ever since that pivotal experience, she has been able to perceive and make change at “frequency level,” the level of vibration that's like the blueprint that underlies our reality.

When we lose sight of what to be thankful for, we start to lose our ability to enjoy our life. When gratitude evades us, joy escapes us and we can slip into cynicism and scarcity. There is no happiness found in scarcity. This meditation hopes to help the listener return to the present moment to find themselves grateful for this breath, this time, this moment, this life.
