In this episode of Maximum Lawyer Live, host Tyson Mutrux shares insights on the difference between what you do and how you do it, inspired by a Disney cast member who brought creativity and joy to his work. Tyson discusses the power of employee autonomy, mindset, and workplace culture.Tyson shares how to implement employee freedom within a firm. Nordstrom is a retailer that is notorious for having amazing customer service, in which their employees are able to go above and beyond for their customers. This is seen in their generous return policy. For Tyson, a great firm is one that gives their employees the opportunity to be the best person for their client. This could be providing them with a gift at the end of the case or being proactive and setting up recurring meetings to keep clients updated. At the end of the day, it is all about making sure the client is taken care of.Building a culture that fosters magic is extremely important for any firm. It is important to create an environment where people can have the right mindset to thrive. Think about areas you can improve. What areas are you micromanaging? When do you need to step back and let staff have more creative freedom? This will ultimately allow for your firm to function in a healthy way, where people will be excited to work and clients will be excited to trust you with their livelihoods.Take a listen!6:55 Implementing Employee Freedom 9:01 Finding Employees with the Right Mindset14:42 The Trade-Offs of Law Firm Ownership16:57 Teaching Mindset and Enjoyment of Work19:57 Building a Culture that Fosters MagicTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. 

David Bach joins Steve Chen to discuss the evolution of The Automatic Millionaire and his newest idea, the IRA Flat Tax, which aims to rethink how Americans use their retirement savings. Bach explains that decades of automation have helped millions accumulate wealth, but most retirees now delay spending their money until required minimum distributions, leaving trillions of dollars idle. He proposes a limited window allowing early retirement withdrawals at a flat tax rate to encourage spending, improve retiree quality of life, and stimulate the economy. The conversation also explores the difficulty of shifting from saving to spending, the importance of enjoying wealth while health allows, and how AI is reshaping financial planning without replacing the need for human guidance, reinforcing Bach's long-held belief that money is ultimately a tool to support a better life.

The Vishuddhi chakra has sixteen petals, each with different qualities and functions. On the physical side, it looks after throat, arms, face, mouth, teeth, etc., so they must all be taken care of. For instance, protecting yourself from the cold, avoiding tobacco, taking proper dental care, and so on. This is particularly important for your vibratory awareness, as the nerves which register the vibrations in the hands pass through this centre.

Mary E. Stuckey, the Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of Communication Arts & Sciences at Pennsylvania State University, has a brilliant new book that dives into the question of who we are as Americans, a theme that Stuckey has long researched and considered in much of her work (Defining Americans: The Presidency and National Identity, University Press of Kansas, 2004; For the Enjoyment of the People: The Creation of National Identity in American Public Lands, University Press of Kansas, 2023), but she traces this idea of American identity through Thomas Jefferson, the 3rd President of the United States, key author of the Declaration of Independence, architect, and enslaver. Remembering Jefferson: Who He Was, Who We Are is an exploration not so much of Thomas Jefferson the person, but Thomas Jefferson as he has become iconic within the American imagination and what that position explains about not only Jefferson himself, but also what it says about the United States at any particular period in the course of American history. Stuckey traces the symbolic and iconic Jefferson in a number of distinct areas, each of which communicate different presentations or representations of Jefferson himself but also how we, as citizens, consume the idea of Jefferson. All of these are avenues to understand American national identity. As a scholar of presidential rhetoric, Stuckey begins the research by exploring how other presidents have used Jefferson in their speeches and their rhetoric, finding that the vast majority of presidents have referenced Jefferson in some form or in some way to legitimize their own policies. Many presidents have integrated Jefferson's own words (and he wrote many, many words over a long life, especially for the time) as a way to authorize what they were doing while in office. Remembering Jefferson: Who He Was, Who We Are then traces the many memorials and monuments that integrate Jefferson in some capacity. But this section is split into two pieces, one that specifically focuses on the Jefferson-centric presentations, and the other part that integrates Jefferson with other Founders or other presidents (like Mt. Rushmore). Stuckey makes clear the key dimension around the building of these kinds of memorials and monuments: they are as much about the people choosing to build them and how they are to look and exist as they are about the individual, in this case Jefferson, being honored within them. The next section of Remembering Jefferson examines Jefferson in popular culture, particularly in televisual and cinematic popular culture. And while Jefferson is, again, in many places, he comes across in fascinating ways in these renderings, since his relationship to slavery—that he had over 500 enslaved individuals over his lifetime, that a number of those who were enslaved were also his children—is often portrayed as incidental and as a kind of footnote. Jefferson is often hazy and romantic in these narratives. The final section of the book assesses Jefferson within children's literature, since this is also a realm where Jefferson is taking on a civic teaching, and the presentation is about communicating a kind of citizenship to young people. Mary Stuckey has produced an important reading of the United States by reading Thomas Jefferson in all the places and spaces where he turns up. Remembering Jefferson: Who He was, Who We Are is a delight to read, and discusses the complex ideas of national identity, enslavement, race, power, citizenship, and civic virtue.

I need to tell you something your doctor won't: GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy don't just suppress your appetite. They can fundamentally change your relationship with food, and if you don't deal with the grief that comes with that, you'll either quit the medication and regain everything or stay on it feeling like you're living in grayscale. This isn't about missing your favorite foods. It's about losing an identity you didn't know you had. In this episode, I walk you through the 4-Stage Food Grief Framework: what's happening at each stage, the mistakes that keep you stuck, and how to use the window these medications give you to actually become your 2.0 version instead of just a smaller version of your old self. Because here's what nobody tells you about that 50-70% rebound rate: It's not because the medication stopped working. It's because people never changed their identity. They were still their 1.0 version, just on medication. If you're on a GLP-1 right now or thinking about starting one, this episode will show you how to do the identity work that actually sticks so you never have to worry about the weight coming back. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why food grief happens on GLP-1 medications and what your doctor isn't telling you about the emotional side effects of appetite suppression The 4-Stage Food Grief Framework and how to navigate each stage without sabotaging your progress or your mental health How to shift your identity from someone who uses food for emotional support to your 2.0 version who sees food as neutral fuel Why the desire to feel good in your body must become greater than the desire to eat the donut (and how to get there) The real reason 50-70% of people regain weight after stopping GLP-1s and how to avoid becoming part of that statistic How to use the medication window to do philosophy-first identity work while your brain isn't screaming at you to eat What to do when you realize you've been using food as a shield to avoid actually showing up in your life

Send us a textWhen Saving More Stops Helping: Finding the Balance Between Financial Discipline and EnjoymentIn this episode of Retire Early. Retire Now, Hunter Kelly, a certified financial planner and owner of Palm Valley Wealth Management, discusses the critical point at which aggressive saving stops being beneficial and starts to compromise quality of life. Addressing high-income earners who save diligently yet feel hesitant to spend, Hunter explores the concept of over-optimizing finances and its impact on day-to-day fulfillment. He provides a framework for identifying when additional saving no longer significantly benefits future financial stability and instead suggests reallocating efforts towards meaningful experiences and satisfaction. Hunter emphasizes the importance of using money as a tool to enhance life rather than just accumulating wealth, advocating for a balanced financial plan that aligns with personal values and long-term goals.00:00 Introduction to Retire Early00:54 The Over-Saver's Dilemma01:33 The Messy Middle Phase03:39 Signs of Over-Optimizing05:50 The Law of Diminishing Returns09:19 A Framework for Balanced Saving11:29 Reallocating with Intention12:31 Conclusion and Next StepsCheck out the Palm Valley Wealth Management WebsitePalmValleywm.comCheck us out on InstagramLinkedIn FacebookListen to the Podcast Here!

What really happens when you close the laptop for the last time and step into retirement? In this candid episode, I sit down with my friend Lynda Camire, who recently retired from a long-standing career in finance with the Canadian government. She may not have had a retirement party, but she does have a lot of honest insights about what happens when the structure of the 9-to-5 disappears. Lynda shares how she planned her retirement, and how that plan didn't include just how bored she'd be in the first few days. From wandering into her home office out of habit to watching the clock like she was still on the job, Lynda's story is a refreshing reminder that even a well-planned retirement can feel disorienting at first. We talk about: The emotional surprise of Day One in retirement What happens when there's no daily agenda Struggles with identity when you no longer say “I work for…” Learning how to stop watching the clock Her passion for cooking and possibly turning it into something more Travel dreams that are still on the horizon Why “if you're unsure about retirement, you're probably not ready”Whether you're counting down the days to your own retirement or already in it and wondering “what now?”, this episode offers a real, grounded perspective on navigating the unknown with a little humour, honesty, and Thai food.Links & Resources:Lynda's episode is part of our ongoing season focusing on Mental Health, Enjoyment, and Personal Growth in retirement.Know someone struggling with the early days of retirement?

When new people find the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, they ask, "Where do I start?" While we'd love for you to go back to the beginning and take them all in, this is for those who need a quick catch-up. We're doing a Rapid Replay Series of condensed episodes, including the most popular episodes according to streams and downloads, as well as a few of our team's personal favorites.  This episode is a condensed version of Episode 004: Bioindividuality - A Freedom You've Never Known. (Click ⁠HERE⁠ for the full, original version instead.) In this episode, host Jamie Belz, FNTP, MHC, explains what "bioindividuality" is and how it entails the understanding, acceptance, and embodiment of the truth. There is no "one-size-fits-all" cookie-cutter approach to health and well-being. Each person is unique and, accordingly, in their approach to and pursuit of optimal wellness. Jamie then walks you through:  1.) Finding a trusted health liaison 2.) Doing a personal audit/health audit using the prompts (below) 3.) Setting goals 4.) Making an action plan/determining action steps 5.) Documenting what you're doing and tracking your findings This episode offers an alternative approach to traditional "New Year's resolutions" and the endless pit of programs, packages, and purchases you can make in pursuit of your wellness goals. This is so simple, it sounds complicated. Don't let it be! Grab a pen and paper, hit PLAY, and get started.  _______________ Your Personal Health Inventory / Health Audit (Listen to the audio first) Areas of Consideration Prompts Health Physical Mental/Emotional Spiritual Relationships Spouse/Significant Other/Life Partner Children Parents Siblings Extended Family Friends Neighbors Coworkers/Colleagues/Professional Associates Children's Networks (Teachers, Coaches, Friends' Parents) Environment Home Clean-Tidy Clean-Toxic (Mold, Cleaners, Off-Gassing, Wildfires, etc.) Enjoyable Comfortable Safe Lonely Overwhelming Affordable Hard Work Work Neighborhood Community Digital Space Finances Stability Relationship with money Debt Income Assets Retirement Insurance Charitable giving/Generosity Ability to Provide Career As Employee Job - Satisfaction, Enjoyment, Feel Appreciated, Feel Challenged, Income, Stress, Hours, Coworkers, Supervisor, Purpose, Challenge, Longevity, etc. Confidence, Satisfaction, Quality of Life Impact, Financials, Progress, etc. Education Exercise Diet Sleep Stress Sex Time Management Confidence Physically, Intellectually, Life Stage/Progress/Accomplishments, Productively, Relationally, etc.   Points of Consideration/Questions (for everything!)

We live in a world overflowing with stuff—and messages about stuff. Everywhere we turn, someone promises that the next purchase, upgrade, or financial milestone will finally bring joy or peace. But Scripture offers a far better—and far more freeing—vision for how believers relate to money and possessions.The Bible doesn't ignore material things. It puts them in their proper place.When Good Things Promise Too MuchWe've all heard the phrase money can't buy happiness, yet it's still easy to live as though it might. When life feels overwhelming, we often reach for the nearest distraction—a purchase, an upgrade, or a new financial goal—hoping it will calm our anxiety or restore a sense of control.But Scripture never teaches that possessions themselves are bad. In fact, Paul writes, “God richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment” (1 Timothy 6:17). Ecclesiastes adds that when God gives someone wealth, possessions, and the ability to enjoy them, “this is a gift of God” (Ecclesiastes 5:19).Enjoying God's good gifts is not unspiritual. Beauty, comfort, and experiences can all be received with gratitude.The problem isn't having things—it's the place things occupy in our hearts. Materialism doesn't begin when we own possessions, but when possessions begin to own us.At its core, materialism is the belief that created things can provide what only the Creator can give: meaning, identity, security, and purpose. Jesus understood this deeply. That's why He spoke so often about money—not because He was worried about finances, but because He cared about our hearts. “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:21).Things were never designed to satisfy the human soul. When they become our deepest treasure, our hearts remain restless.Enjoyment Versus DependenceSo how do we enjoy God's gifts without becoming dependent on them?The difference is subtle but crucial.Enjoyment says, “Father, thank You for this gift.”Dependence says, “If I lose this, I'll lose myself.”Enjoyment frees us. Dependence enslaves us.That's why gratitude is so powerful. Gratitude reminds us that every good thing flows from the hand of a loving God. When we see possessions as gifts, we stop expecting them to carry weight they were never meant to bear.Generosity is another powerful antidote to materialism. When you give, you declare that your hope is not found in accumulation. You remember that God owns it all—and that your joy is rooted in Him, not in what you hold.And here's an important nuance: rejecting materialism does not mean rejecting material things. Scripture never calls believers to asceticism or joyless living. Instead, it warns us against the illusion that anything—even abundance—can become enough apart from God.Ecclesiastes holds both truths together: God gives possessions and the ability to enjoy them—that's grace. Yet whoever loves money never has enough. Feeding the craving for more never satisfies it.Three Questions That Keep Things in Their PlaceIf you want to guard your heart, here are three simple questions worth asking regularly:Do I enjoy this gift with gratitude, or do I feel anxious without it?Does this possession help me love God and others—or distract me from them?Am I more excited about having this thing, or about how God may want me to use it?When things stay in their proper place, they become blessings instead of burdens. They point us to the God who provides rather than pulling us away from Him.And here's the irony: the less we depend on things for happiness, the more freely we can actually enjoy them.Rooting Joy in the Giver, Not the GiftGod created a world rich with color, beauty, taste, and texture. He's given each of us resources and opportunities to steward and enjoy. But things are not ultimate. They are not our source of life. They are not our Savior. Only God is.When our joy is rooted in the Giver rather than the gift, we discover the contentment our hearts were made for.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm looking for wisdom on when—or if—I should give my kids a car. I have three children, ages 16, 18, and 20. Because we live about 30 miles from school, we've always provided vehicles so they can get to activities. Is there a point where it makes sense to give them the car outright to help them grow in responsibility? Or is it better to require shared responsibility instead of a full gift?Several years ago, I had about $17,000 in credit card debt and enrolled in a debt management program through Trinity Debt Management. I've since paid it down to around $6,000–$7,000. I've heard about the debt management program you recommend, and I was wondering if it makes sense to switch if the interest rate is lower. Are there any advantages or disadvantages to changing programs at this stage?My wife and I have been married nearly 42 years, and generosity has always been part of our walk—we've consistently tithed. We're now beginning to receive inheritances from our parents and are thinking through how to handle giving in this situation. Do we tithe on an inheritance? How should we think about generosity with gifts like money or even something like a car?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Christian Credit CounselorsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

The Vishuddhi chakra has sixteen petals, each with different qualities and functions. On the physical side, it looks after throat, arms, face, mouth, teeth, etc., so they must all be taken care of. For instance, protecting yourself from the cold, avoiding tobacco, taking proper dental care, and so on. This is particularly important for your vibratory awareness, as the nerves which register the vibrations in the hands pass through this centre.

Have you ever felt your routine fall apart during the holidays and immediately assumed your progress was slipping? The mix of travel, heavier meals and unpredictable schedules can make your body feel different fast, but those shifts are not the setback your mind tells you they are.In this episode we talk about how your strength responds during chaotic seasons, why momentum matters more than perfect structure and how small anchors like movement snacks, protein and hydration keep you connected to yourself when everything else feels messy.We also break down the body image triggers that tend to show up this time of year. Lighting, angles, outfits and family comments can activate old beliefs quickly, and learning how to pause and reframe those moments helps you stay grounded instead of spiraling.If you want a clearer way to move through holiday chaos with confidence, calm and a lot less fear of starting over, this conversation will meet you right where you are and give you tools you can use immediately.

Dr. Martin Picard, PhD, is a professor of behavioral medicine at Columbia University and an expert on how our behaviors and psychology shape cellular energy production and rates of aging. He explains that your mitochondria don't just “make energy”; they translate what you do—your mindset and your relationships—into the energy you experience as vitality or lack thereof. He explains how exercise, nutrition, sleep, meditation, and even certain thought patterns and our sense of purpose can charge our cells like batteries. He also shares findings that hair greying is the result of cellular stress and is reversible. This episode links physical and mental ‘energy' with cellular energy and provides science-supported tools to improve your physical and mental health. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

RU367: NICK STOCK & NICK PEIM ON THE LACANIAN TEACHER: EDUCATION, PEDAGOGY & ENJOYMENT https://renderingunconscious.substack.com/p/ru367-nick-stock-and-nick-peim-on Rendering Unconscious episode 367. Rendering Unconscious welcomes Drs. Nick Stock and Nick Peim to the podcast! They're here to talk about their new book The Lacanian Teacher: Education, Pedagogy and Enjoyment (The Palgrave Lacan Series). https://amzn.to/47LBV8c In this episode, Nick Stock and Nick Peim delve into their Lacanian perspective on education. They discuss the fantasy of the English teacher's unique role, the pervasive myth of educational redemption, and the enjoyment derived from teaching despite its challenges. The discussion highlights the symbolic order of education, the impact of neoliberalism, and the ontological significance of the signifier. They explore the pleasure in teaching, the tragic ethic, and the hysterical mode of teaching, emphasizing the importance of the signifier and the teacher's subjective experience within the educational symbolic order.

What can slicing a watermelon teach us about design? Turns out… quite a lot. This week, I chat with Vitaly Friedman, founder of Smashing Magazine, to explore curiosity, inefficiency, and why the best designers obsess over process, not perfection.What if your next design breakthrough came not from a book or a course, but from learning to slice a watermelon?Vitaly Friedman has spent decades shaping how designers think about the web. But in this conversation, we go beyond pixels and patterns to talk about something much more profound: how curiosity itself becomes a design tool. From choosing the perfect watermelon to mastering the art of ironing, Vitaly reveals how everyday obsessions can teach us how to think, learn, and design better.We explore how designers can reclaim joy and curiosity in their work, especially in environments where efficiency and productivity often come at the expense of creativity. Vitaly's take? It's not about finding the perfect way to do something—it's about exploring many ways and discovering meaning in the process.From grilled watermelons to enterprise UX, we connect the dots between experimentation, self-learning, and the messy human side of design.If you've ever felt stuck chasing “best practices” or trying to find the “right” answer, this episode will remind you that sometimes, the most valuable thing you can do is play.Topics:• 03:39 – The Watermelon Metaphor• 05:37 – Choosing the Perfect Watermelon• 09:19 – Cutting Techniques and Presentation• 13:34 – Grilling Watermelon and Culinary Creativity• 14:28 – Learning and Self-Education• 15:13 – The Journey of Exploration• 18:28 – Imposter Syndrome and Asking for Help• 22:00 – Humanizing Executives and Stakeholders• 22:48 – The Importance of Curiosity• 25:34 – Ironing and Finding Zen• 30:01 – The Role of Enjoyment in Learning• 31:35 – Procrastination and Productivity• 33:46 – Procrastination and Focus• 34:48 – Memorable Conference Experience• 37:08 – Finding Joy in Enterprise UX Design• 38:50 – Challenges in Enterprise Projects• 41:35 – Building Trust and Team Culture• 50:50 – Balancing Exploration and DeliveryHelpful Links:• Connect with Vitaly on LinkedIn• Smashing Magazine• Design Patterns For AI Interfaces—Thanks for listening!

Abby and Patrick are joined by Nick Stock and Nick Peim, authors of the new book The Lacanian Teacher: Education, Pedagogy, and Enjoyment. From the origin stories teachers tell about themselves to the ways the classroom looms large in our memories, popular media, and political rhetoric, it's a conversation about education at the intersection of fantasies, reality, vocations, anxieties, addictions, and more. What are the narratives that drive people to study and to teach, and what are the satisfactions and frustrations that come with learning? How do credentials and rules work in tandem with transgression and license? How do our expectations of acquiring knowledge survive, or get dashed, by disillusionment when we finally “get” it? Can we ever truly learn anything – or is knowledge always unstable and transient? As Nick and Nick explain, a Lacanian perspective is singularly helpful for confronting these questions and more. Walking through Lacan's theories of lack, identification, and institutional discourses, they also explore why so many people find the figure of Jacques Lacan himself so alluring.The Lacanian Teacher: Education, Pedagogy, and Enjoyment: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-93018-8Have you noticed that Freud is back?
