Podcasts about energize

In this episode, I'm joined by confidence coach Meg Trucano—and let me tell you, this conversation is so much more than surface-level strategy. Meg walks us through her powerful REAL Change Framework (Rebel, Energize, Align, Leap) for navigating life transitions with clarity and courage. Whether you're standing at the edge of a career change, an identity shift, or a cross-country move, her insights will help you challenge the stories you've been carrying and step into your next chapter with purpose.We especially dive into the first stage of her framework—Rebel—which is all about uncovering the beliefs you didn't even realize were shaping your decisions. We talk about how to rewrite the narrative, how to recognize when you're living someone else's version of success, and how to start honoring what you truly want. If you've ever caught yourself thinking, “Wait… is this even my voice, or someone else's expectation?”—this episode will hit home.This conversation is real, raw, and full of tangible coaching insights. Meg shares client stories, mindset reframes, and the exact process she uses to help women rise in the middle of uncertainty. If you're feeling pulled toward something more but don't know where to begin—this is your invitation to trust the nudge, rebel a little, and rise a lot.

In this episode of the podcast, Jeff Ishee chats with Susan Watkins of Watkins Farms in Dinwiddie County Virginia, a 3500 acre farm growing soybeans, corn, and wheat. Susan shares information about the long history of her family far, their transition to cover crops and no till over twenty years ago, and their approach to cover cropping. She shares about the cost and labor savings that have come from transitioning to these practices. Watkins Farms is located in the Chesapeake Bay watershed, which means conservation practices like no-till planting and the use of cover crops have an impact beyond the soil health of the land itself. Farmers play a key role in improving the water quality in the Bay. You can find more info at: https://farmersforsoilhealth.com/success-stories/seven-generations-of-stewardship-with-susan-watkins/ As always, we encourage you to cooperate with other farmers and follow the four core soil health principles: 1) Keep the Soil Covered -- Cover crops are our friends; 2) Minimize soil disturbance -- Practice no-till or gentle tillage in your field or garden as much as possible; 3) Maximize living roots year-round -- to improve biodiversity and life in the soil; and 4) Energize with diversity -- through crop rotation and/or livestock integration.

Navigating the CEO Journey: Expert Insights from Loic Potjes of Disruptive LeapIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge speaks with Loic Potjes, Founder and Managing Partner of Disruptive Leap. Loic brings decades of executive experience and coaching insight to the conversation, sharing what it really takes to lead effectively in today's high-pressure business environment. From managing overwhelm and isolation to enhancing team engagement and time mastery, this episode offers a powerful roadmap for CEOs and founders who want to lead with greater clarity, balance, and impact.The CEO's Challenge: Moving from Reactive to Intentional LeadershipLoic opens the conversation with a personal note—his love of wine and community, especially as part of a wine club in Johannesburg. For Loic, passion outside of work fosters connection and personal renewal—qualities that matter just as much in leadership. But when the topic turns to the realities of being a CEO, the tone gets deeper: leadership is often lonely, reactive, and draining.He explains how many CEOs find themselves overwhelmed, stuck in the busyness of daily operations, and losing clarity on what truly drives business growth. According to Loic, one of the most effective strategies for reclaiming purpose and focus is to transition from reactive task management to a proactive leadership rhythm. That starts with self-awareness: understanding what energizes you, what drains you, and how to build a team that fills your gaps. By making space for strategic thinking and empowering complementary teams, CEOs can realign with their zone of genius and free themselves from burnout.Loic also discusses the power of consistent communication and engagement. Disengaged teams, he notes, are a global epidemic—with only 8% of French employees reportedly feeling engaged. To counter this, CEOs must not only lead with clarity but also create environments where employees thrive. Engagement starts at the top, and Loic shares practical steps for CEOs to model intentional leadership while nurturing team motivation and accountability.About Loic PotjesLoic Potjes is the founder and managing partner of Disruptive Leap, where he coaches CEOs and executive teams to lead with clarity, resilience, and impact. Drawing from his extensive background in leadership, Loic helps clients unlock their potential, align their priorities, and scale both personal and professional growth.About Disruptive LeapDisruptive Leap is an executive coaching firm focused on helping CEOs and leadership teams transition from reactive management to high-impact, purpose-driven leadership.

These turn off the melatonin faucet in your brain which allows you to kind of clear the brain fog and wake up. The more consistent you are with it, the more your body can expect when to turn off the melatonin faucet. When it turns off the faucet in your head, it sets a timer for roughly 15 hours later to start melatonin.” “You would actually be considered drunk behind the wheel if you get less than 5 1/2 hours just from a reaction time standpoint.”“Sleep is a lot like love: the less you look for it, the more it shows up.” Connect With Dr. Michael BreusWebsite: https://thesleepdoctor.comInstagram (@thesleepdoctor): https://www.instagram.com/thesleepdoctor/Dr. Breus' book: Energize!: Go from Dragging Ass to Kicking It in 30 Days Connect With AGEISTNewsletterInstagramWebsiteLinkedInSay hi to the AGEIST team!

Public Relations Specialist Elizabeth McMullen and Sustainability Funding and Communications Specialist Garland Mason of Organic Valley Cooperative join Mary and Eric to share about the common ties that are essential to the farmer-owned cooperative. Cooperation and a strong commitment to the sustainability of small and mid-size family farms, local culture, and community are the most basic ties. In this episode, Elizabeth and Garland outline the history of Organic Valley and how the business started as a vegetable cooperative in 1988 and now has over 1,500 dairy farmer-member owners in 29 states with an average herd size of 70 cows per farm. Preserving small family farms was an impetus for Organic Valley's start. In carrying that mission forward, Organic Valley assists farmer member-owners to be sustainable and profitable through on-farm practices such as solar, composting, solid and liquid separation of manure, reduced tillage, and nutrition management to reduce nitrogen, phosphorus, and gas emissions. Most recently, OV farmers have experimented with Agolin Naturu, which is an organic certified enteric feed supplement made of essential oils of coriander, clove, and carrot that results in better fermentation, digestibility, and less burping.To learn more about Organic Valley's commitment to cooperation, sustainability, and soil health, please visit https://www.organicvalley.coop/  The website also provides recipes and a searchable database of Organic Valley farms near you.As always, we encourage you to cooperate with other farmers and follow the four core soil health principles: 1) Keep the Soil Covered -- Cover crops are our friends; 2) Minimize soil disturbance -- Practice no-till or gentle tillage in your field or garden as much as possible; 3) Maximize living roots year-round -- to improve biodiversity and life in the soil; and 4) Energize with diversity -- through crop rotation and/or livestock integration.

Have you ever wondered if there's more to postpartum care than simply “getting back to normal”? What if the path to healing wasn't about bouncing back but coming home to your body, womb, and rhythm?In this episode, I sit down with Julia Demillones Moore, mother, herbalist, and founder of Moonbeam Steams.She's a women's health advocate who came into this work through her own struggles with painful periods, hormonal imbalance, and postpartum depletion.

Because it's never too late to care for your womb.We also talk about:When it's safe to begin steaming—whether you've had a vaginal birth, cesarean, tearing, or episiotomyHerbs that support the womb, nervous system, and postpartum healing—like plantain, marshmallow root, nettle, yarrow, rose, and chamomileHow steaming can be introduced around week 38 of pregnancy to help prepare the body for laborAnd how this practice can gently support trauma healing and emotional processing in the months and years after birthConnect with JuliaMoonbeam Steams | Holistic Womb Wellness & Vaginal SteamingJulia

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed at work, scattered between tasks, or simply disconnected from yourself, this practice offers a way back to center. Use it hourly as suggested, or whenever you need to clear mental fog, release physical tension, or reset your emotional state.The most powerful reminder comes at the end: "You don't need more time. You just needed this moment." In a world constantly telling us we need more—more productivity, more achievement, more hours in the day—this simple practice offers a revolutionary perspective: that wellbeing isn't about having more, but about fully experiencing what's already here. Give yourself this gift whenever you need it. Your body, mind, and spirit will thank you.If you are enjoying the show please subscribe, share and review!

Have an idea or tip? Send us a text!Ever wondered if your "failing" memory cards might just need some TLC? Larry O'Connor, founder and CEO of OWC (Other World Computing), shatters common misconceptions about technology lifespan while revealing game-changing approaches to extending the life of your digital gear.Since founding OWC in 1988, O'Connor has maintained a singular focus: "giving users more from the technology they have." What began as memory upgrades for Apple computers has evolved into comprehensive storage solutions, docks, and software tools designed to maximize performance and longevity. O'Connor reveals why so many photographers and videographers prematurely discard perfectly good memory cards. Most perceived "failures" simply result from dirty caches rather than actual hardware deterioration. OWC's Energize software can sanitize these cards and restore factory-original performance in seconds, potentially saving creative professionals substantial money while reducing electronic waste.O'Connor also explains Thunderbolt technology, explaining why its universal compatibility, maximum performance, and ability to handle both power and data through a single cable make it indispensable for creators who need reliable equipment. "If you are a mission creator, you want to be in a situation where you don't have to think about what you're connecting," he notes.Audience ConnectionDiscover how top storytellers build content that connects and converts.

Farmers talking with farmers is key to building soil health, encouraging innovation, and expanding peer-to-peer mentoring. Anthony Beery of Beery Farms and Cumberland Hay and Straw LLC shares his journey of learning, mentoring, and on-farm experimenting with Mary Sketch Bryant and Jeff Ishee. In the previous episode, Anthony talked about how he benefitted from his father's counsel and encouragement. Anthony provides similar mentorship to his children and fellow farmers through the Virginia No-Till Alliance (VANTAGE) and Virginia's Integrated Cropland Agronomy (ICA) program so others can generate new ideas and enjoy success.  Like the majority of farmers, Anthony is constantly learning and gleaning new information through his on-farm experiments with no-till farming, multispecies cover cropping, composting, and observing the soil and plant ecosystem. As a self-described general gleaner, Anthony recommends talking with other farmers, attending conferences like the Annual VANTAGE No-Till Conference, and reading books and publications available through USDA's Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) and agricultural partners. In Anthony's work with multi-species cover crops, he uses Green Cover Seeds' SmartMix Calculator as one of his reference tools.    As always, we encourage you to talk with other farmer mentors and follow the four principles of soil health: 1) Keep the Soil Covered -- Cover crops are our friends; 2) Minimize soil disturbance -- Practice no-till or gentle tillage in your field or garden as much as possible; 3) Maximize living roots year-round -- to improve biodiversity and life in the soil; and 4) Energize with diversity -- through crop rotation and/or livestock integration. Yes, soil health is a great conversation starter since we can all be 4 The Soil! To enjoy the recent 4 The Soil blog posts and We Are 4 the Soil song created by the Flip Charts, please visit https://www.4thesoil.org/blog and  https://www.4thesoil.org/#we-are-4-the-soil-video.

They are called UFPs, or "Unexplained Phenomena," and they can range from unidentified flying crafts to paranormal events like telekinesis, the ability to move objects with your mind. The term UFP has replaced 'Unidentified Flying Object', or UFO, to encompass all things possibly witnessed but not explained. In the past few years, Congress has held hearings to hear witness and expert testimony to look into the sometimes unexplained. FOX's Chris Foster speaks with Dr. Julia Mossbridge, the executive director of The Institute for Love and Time (TILT), a fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, and an associated professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies and the author of 'The Calling: A 12-Week Science-Based Program to Discover, Energize, and Engage Your Soul's Work,' who has testified before Congress and says modern day science is catching up with UFP theories for possible answers.

Would you like to try a safe method of healing? Do you know about Red Light Therapy? Lisa continues the conversation today with Dr. Carl Rothschild and Joyce Gerber, who also joins us, to talk about the multiple benefits of this therapy. Dr. Rothchild has been a chiropractor for many decades. Nearly 30 years ago, he was introduced to a healing method known as “Red Light Therapy.” Joyce Gerber, who is an expert nutritionist and colon hydrotherapist, met Dr. Carl Rothschild during the pandemic lockdown. Joyce was not able to do hands-on therapy, so she began working with Dr. Rothschild on his Red Light Therapy beds. She met a client who had heart problems. After 5 minutes, the therapy helped his heart tremendously. They explain how we are in a state of regeneration or degeneration. Joyce talks about how she also uses food as therapy. She looks at the whole body and how one part affects another. It's a holistic approach. The remedies are personalized. It's a powerful modality. Joyce explains how nutrition helps as well. Dr. Carl talks about how each session is 12 minutes. He says there have been no recorded side effects from this therapy. Your body will respond whether it needs to relax or be energized. The body knows how to get better. If you have any condition, the therapy may help. Mitochondrial activity is increased, and it will improve those particular areas. It is whole body healing. Dr. Carl explains that not only will you look better and feel better, you will have a better quality of life. Everyone can benefit from this non-invasive treatment. Joyce Gerber calls the mitochondria the energy factories of the cell. They are necessary for optimal health. Dr. Carl also discusses pain and the underlying causes. When corrected, the pain and inflammation go away. You must correct the underlying issues, and you can also reverse them with Red Light Therapy. He also discusses the difference between infared saunas using far-infared and the therapy beds. The near-infared waves affect the mitochondria. He also discusses blue and green lights too, and how blue light can negatively affect sleep patterns. The Red Light wavelengths are invisible to the naked eye. He talks about how there are more than 3 million documents and articles about the benefits of this therapy including studies from the National Institutes of Health. He further discusses how the therapy can also improve mood, sleep, and emotions. There are numerous locations around the country which have the Red Light Therapy Beds. This is Part 2 of the interview. Info: www.trifectalight.com/joyce

The mitochondria are the powerhouse driving your body's energy and health, affecting your overall energy levels and your risk of chronic diseases. Unsurprisingly, environmental toxins can have a major impact on the health of your mitochondria. In this short episode, Laura Frontiero explains the mitochondria and how it impacts overall health through the production of ATP (a molecule that serves as the cells' primary energy source). The conversation sheds light on how environmental toxins affect mitochondrial health from early stages of life and the subsequent impact on chronic diseases and autoimmune disorders. She also shares insights on the importance of addressing mitochondrial dysfunction, drawing from her own experiences and research. Episode Notes ATP production is crucial for maintaining energy levels for bodily functions and understanding the consequences of mitochondrial decline on overall health. It is critical for sustaining not just physical energy for daily activities but it is also the invisible energy required for many vital internal processes. Environmental Toxins and The Mitochondria The impact of environmental toxicants on mitochondrial function highlights the importance of reducing exposure to toxins for overall health. Environmental factors can lead to mitochondrial dysfunction, which can contribute to the development of chronic diseases and autoimmune disorders. Reverse Chronic Diseases Addressing mitochondrial dysfunction is essential for reversing chronic diseases and promoting overall health. Learning how to improve mitochondrial function can lead to increased energy levels and improved health outcomes. Listen now and start regaining your energy and vitality!

Soil health is attainable. Anthony Beery of Beery Farms and Cumberland Hay and Straw LLC shares that message with Mary Sketch Bryant and Jeff Ishee based on his farming experience and journey. Anthony grew up in the Shenandoah Valley where he and his father Danny raised dairy cows and poultry. Anthony benefitted from his father's mentorship and encouragement to be open to new ideas and experimenting.Anthony and his family moved to Cumberland County in 2018 to begin custom crop production and start Cumberland Hay & Straw LLC. Anthony received the 2024 Carl Luebben Soil Health and Water Quality Award at the Virginia Farm-to-Table Conference for his commitment, example, and mentorship of other farmers.  If you are just starting your soil health journey, Anthony emphasizes taking a step and starting with the basics: learn the soil type and previous land use, test for nutrient content and pH, and understand the areas where nutrients are low and high. For Anthony, soil compaction was a limiting factor on his farm that started his commitment to earnest no-till farming, experimenting with diverse cover crop rotations, and continued devotion to core principles of soil health. As always, we encourage you to start your soil health journey and follow the four principles of soil health: 1) Keep the Soil Covered -- Cover crops are our friends; 2) Minimize soil disturbance -- Practice no-till or gentle tillage in your field or garden as much as possible; 3) Maximize living roots year-round -- to improve biodiversity and life in the soil; and 4) Energize with diversity -- through crop rotation and/or livestock integration.

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, the spotlight is on one of the most frustrating and commonly misunderstood symptoms of PCOS: fatigue. Whether it's that mid-afternoon slump, the struggle to get out of bed, or the sense of always running on empty, energy issues affect many women with PCOS, and today's conversation dives deep into why that happens and how to fix it.Understanding the Link Between PCOS and FatigueFatigue isn't just about being tired—it's often the result of a disrupted circadian rhythm. This internal clock controls when you feel alert or sleepy and can easily be thrown off by inconsistent sleep schedules, poor light exposure, or high stress. Even without a formal diagnosis like Addison's or Cushing's disease, subtle imbalances in cortisol can dramatically affect how energized you feel throughout the day.Caffeine and sugar might offer a quick boost, but they often set you up for a hard crash. In this episode, you'll learn why starting your day with balanced meals instead of quick fixes is crucial for avoiding that roller coaster of energy highs and lows. Learn how even intense workouts can leave you depleted if you don't support your body with proper nutrition and hydration afterward.Identifying the Root Causes of PCOS-Related FatigueWhile daily energy dips are frustrating, long-term fatigue that builds over weeks or months is another level entirely. This deeper exhaustion often follows prolonged stress or trauma and is commonly seen in women managing PCOS. When your body has been running on adrenaline for too long, your energy systems begin to falter, leaving you constantly drained.Fatigue can show up differently depending on your PCOS root causes. Inflammation can make your body feel heavy and sluggish, an overactive stress response burns through your energy reserves too quickly, and insulin resistance leads to sugar crashes that zap your energy. Often, it's a combination of all three. In this episode, you'll discover how understanding your root causes is a critical piece of reclaiming your energy.If you've been feeling run-down and tired all the time, this episode is your invitation to shift your focus. Start by creating a more consistent sleep schedule, balancing your meals, building movement into your week, and reducing unnecessary stress. These small changes can create powerful momentum.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereOther Links for the Episode Let's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-143
