 A lot of us know the physical and mental benefits of sex, and yet so many of us are not having the amazing sex we want. So I wanted to know—why don't we crave sex even though we like it? And how can anyone, no matter how exhausted they are, or no matter how long they've been with their partner, regularly have the best sex? I chat with Dr. Nicole McNichols, an internationally renowned human sexuality professor, whose course is the most popular in the history of the University of Washington, and she shares answers to all of my questions, plus gives genius solutions to all of your sex problems. She also tells us, surprisingly, where the male  G-spot is (it's probably not where you think it is).

Today's episode is one every woman needs right now — because if you're feeling distracted, exhausted, overwhelmed, or like your brain has 47 tabs open at all times… you're not alone. We're joined by psychologist, behavioral scientist, and author Dr. Zelana Montminy, whose work focuses on resilience, focus, and what it actually takes to feel grounded in a world that constantly pulls at our attention. And no — this isn't about productivity hacks or doing more. It's about coming back to yourself. We talk about why so many women are living in low-grade burnout without realizing it, how multitasking and being “always available” is quietly frying our nervous systems, and why distraction isn't just a kids' problem — it's an adult epidemic.  Dr. Zelana breaks down how focus isn't about grinding or optimizing — it's about presence and intention. We get into simple, realistic shifts that actually help: micro moments of calm, rethinking your relationship with your phone, why silence matters more than you think, and how modeling regulation (not perfection) changes everything — especially for our kids. If you've ever thought, Why can't I focus anymore? Why am I so tired? Why does everything feel urgent? — this episode will leave you feeling seen, understood, and a little more grounded by the time it ends.

Today's anchor is intentionally quiet. We are practicing something simple but very powerful. Listening instead of overriding.So often, we only slow down when our bodies force us to. When we're sick. Exhausted. Or running on empty.As women, and especially as mothers, we are so conditioned to be doing for everyone else. Holding. Managing. Anticipating. Planning. And the moment we pause, even briefly, guilt creeps in. Like we should be doing more. Like rest has to be earned.I am currently reading a book called The Relaxed Woman. And it's been a gentle reminder that relaxation isn't something we arrive at once everything is done. It's something we decide is important and we must practice relaxing in our real everyday lives. This anchor is an invitation to practice that.It's about practicing that pause before we reach a point of burnout and disregulation.This anchor is a reminder that rest is not a reward. It's information. And listening is one of the most powerful things we can do for ourselves and those around us.When we pause, we create space.Space to respond instead of react.Space to notice what we actually need.Space for our bodies to recalibrate without being pushed.When we pause, we model regulation for the people around us.We show our children, our partners, and ourselves that it's safe to slow down.That care doesn't have to come from exhaustion.Together we all learn that presence is more powerful than pushing through.As you move back into your day, carry this with you.You don't need to do more.You don't need to prove anything.Sometimes the most supportive thing you can dois stop and listen.Pause. Thanks for listening!

In this episode of the Female Health Solution Podcast, I break down why good sleep doesn't always equal restorative sleep, and why waking up exhausted is often a hormone and cortisol rhythm issue, not a lack of sleep or effort on your part. Yes, sleep matters. But if your body isn't producing or regulating cortisol correctly, you can still wake up tired, foggy, and unmotivated, even after a full night in bed. What we cover in this episode: Why cortisol plays a major role in how energized (or exhausted) you feel in the morning The difference between getting sleep and actually restoring your nervous system How stress, broken sleep, under-fueling, and overexercising quietly drain your energy Why women need more and different quality sleep than men The "wired but tired" pattern and how it shows up when cortisol is off Why pushing through exhaustion works… until it doesn't I also explain why so many women hit a point where they can keep functioning, but feel awful doing it. Just because your body is resilient doesn't mean it should live in survival mode. If you're sleeping but not recovering, something deeper is missing. How we figure out what's actually going on This is where functional testing matters. I walk through why I rely on the DUTCH Test to look at: Your cortisol pattern throughout the day Estrogen, progesterone, and androgen balance Nutrient status that impacts energy and recovery Different cortisol patterns require different support. If your adrenals are flatlined, you need a very different approach than someone whose system is stuck in overdrive. Guessing, or throwing random sleep supplements at the problem, rarely works. A great place to start: the FREE 5-Day Revive If you're not ready for testing yet, I created a free 5-Day Revive Challenge focused on helping your body feel more strong, steady, and energized. Inside the 5-day, we focus on: Morning and evening routines that support healthy cortisol rhythms Simple nutrition and protein targets to prevent depletion How to fuel before and after workouts so you actually recover Light, movement, and nervous system regulation A short daily assessment so guidance is targeted, not overwhelming This is not about perfection or adding more to your plate. It's about making small, intentional changes that actually move the needle.

In this episode, Seth Studley discusses the exhaustion many feel due to overstimulation and the impact on the nervous system. He emphasizes that this is not a personal failure but a biological response to the current world. Seth offers insights into understanding nervous system regulation, the importance of faith and peace, and practical shifts to help individuals find calm and act in alignment with their goals. Takeaways A lot of us go walking around exhausted, overstimulated and quietly overwhelmed. It's not a motivation problem; it's a nervous system problem. Our brains weren't designed for constant stimulation and chaos. Doom scrolling activates the same fear circuitry as real threats. You need a regulated nervous system, not a beverage. Jesus never rushed; He modeled peace and calm. You can't out hustle your way into peace. Your body needs proof that you're okay. Stop asking what's wrong with me; ask what has my nervous system been exposed to. Everything is okay, and you are not broken. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Okay, so you know that bone-deep exhaustion you feel? That sense that no matter how hard you run, you're still falling behind? What if I told you that's not a personal failure—it's a structural trap? German sociologist Hartmut Rosa has been asking why modern life feels like a whirlpool we can't escape, and his diagnosis is devastating: our growth economy requires our exhaustion. It's a feature, not a bug. But here's where it gets good for us theology nerds—Rosa's solution isn't just slowing down. It's something he calls resonance, and when you hear him describe it, you're gonna think, "Wait, that sounds like prayer. That sounds like what church is supposed to be." This essay is my attempt to lay out Rosa's big ideas and why I think every person of faith should be paying attention to this guy. We're reading his new book Time and World with Matt Segall this February, so consider this your on-ramp and feel the lure.

God Provides When We Cannot Prepare

Life doesn’t always give us time to plan—and that’s often where God’s provision becomes most visible. This Crosswalk Devotional centers on Exodus 12:31–39, reminding us that when preparation is impossible, God still provides exactly what we need. The Israelites left Egypt abruptly, carrying unfinished dough into an uncertain future, yet God faithfully supplied every step of their journey. Their hurried departure wasn’t an oversight—it was an invitation to trust. This Christian devotional speaks to seasons of disruption, loss, and uncertainty, when routines fall apart and control slips through our fingers. Whether facing sudden change, grief, or exhaustion, Scripture shows us that God uses moments of unpreparedness to reveal His character. When we can’t rely on our plans, we learn to rely on His promises. Highlights God often works powerfully in moments when we feel least prepared The Israelites’ rushed escape reveals God’s intentional provision Loss of control can become an invitation to deeper trust God’s provision is not limited by our circumstances or planning Seasons of uncertainty help us remember we are God’s children, not slaves Dependence on God strengthens faith and reveals His faithfulness When preparation fails, prayer becomes our lifeline Do you want to listen ad-free?

Leave my people, you and the Israelites! Go, worship the LORD as you have requested. Take your flocks and herds, as you have said, and go. And also bless me.” The Egyptians urged the people to hurry and leave the country. “For otherwise,” they said, “we will all die!” So the people took their dough before the yeast was added, and carried it on their shoulders in kneading troughs wrapped in clothing. The Israelites did as Moses instructed and asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold and for clothing. The LORD had made the Egyptians favorably disposed toward the people, and they gave them what they asked for; so they plundered the Egyptians. The Israelites journeyed from Rameses to Sukkoth. There were about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children. Many other people went up with them, and also large droves of livestock, both flocks and herds. With the dough the Israelites had brought from Egypt, they baked loaves of unleavened bread. The dough was without yeast because they had been driven out of Egypt and did not have time to prepare food for themselves. - Exodus 12:31-39 Our family recently traveled 300 miles north to spend the holidays at home, where my husband and I both grew up. Though we had planned for an extended stay, we did not sleep well on the first or second night, and on the following morning, my husband woke with a terrible bout of food poisoning. Exhausted, exasperated, and with a terribly achy back, I couldn’t imagine being away from home for even another moment. Before the sun had even risen, I announced, “That’s it. We need to leave—today.” In a rush, I threw apples and slippers and dog food into any spare bag I could find. I stuffed dirty clothes back into suitcases and rummaged in the fridge for anything that could qualify as breakfast for the kids. I promised myself we’d all brush our teeth later. And then, with our odds and ends shoved into every spare crevice of the car, we sped off, not even stopping to say goodbye to our family on the way out of town. All day, I felt unsettled. Our luggage was disorganized, we were subsisting on a bag of chocolate-covered espresso beans, and, as I discovered later, two out of our three kids weren’t even wearing socks! Our careful routines—and my sense of any control—had gone out the window. And it was deeply uncomfortable. It made me sympathize with the Israelites, who were pushed out of Egypt in such a hurry that they weren’t even finished making the dough for their bread; they swept it up onto their shoulders and lugged it off into the great unknown. They did not have time to prepare provisions for themselves. But their journey was more than just one long day down the interstate. It was forty years of wandering. Forty years of being unsettled. Forty years of not being in control. Forty years of having to depend on Someone Else to provide for them. I think their rapid departure from Egypt was an intentional move on God’s part. I believe he wanted to make sure they did not have time to prepare—not because he wanted them to feel uncomfortable, but because he wanted to show them that he would provide everything they needed. He wanted to show them what it meant to be the people of the One True Living God. He wanted to position them to understand that they were not slaves any longer: they were his children, and they could trust him to take care of them. Intersecting Faith & Life: There are times in our lives that we simply cannot prepare for. A loss of a job. The death of someone we love. Or maybe just a husband waking up with food poisoning. Though we might despise the situation and wish to cling to control with everything we’ve got (which are very natural and human responses!), in moments of disquiet, may we find the courage to look at God and ask him what he wishes to show us about his character in these times. When he puts us in positions of total abandon—where our illusions of control and carefully measured procedures have been stripped away—may we learn to pray: God, Show me your goodness. I have nothing. You are in control. I need you. Please provide. Amen. Further Reading:Throughout the Bible, people find themselves in situations where their only hope is to trust God to provide. Consider: Daniel telling Nebuchadnezzar the meaning of his dream (Daniel 2) Joshua’s army marching around the walls of Jericho (Joshua 6) Mary learning that she will give birth to Jesus (Luke 1) Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Marriage exhaustion doesn't always mean something is wrong. In this episode, we explore why relationships can function well and still feel heavy — and how quiet identity shifts, not failure, often explain the strain.Some relationships don't break.They work.They stay intact, functional, and outwardly stable — and yet something inside feels increasingly tired.In this episode of The Recalibration, we explore a form of relationship exhaustion that doesn't come from conflict, betrayal, or unresolved arguments. It comes from roles — especially the quiet, responsible ones that once kept connection safe.Many high-performing or deeply responsible people find themselves carrying the emotional center of a marriage or partnership without ever naming it. They anticipate tone, smooth edges, stabilize tension, and hold things together not because they were asked to — but because they could.Over time, that role can start to feel heavy.This episode walks through the Release stage of Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) — the moment when awareness deepens and outdated relational roles begin to loosen. Not through blame or confrontation, but through compassion and understanding.We explore why:Letting go of a role doesn't mean you care lessExhaustion is often information, not failureIdentity shifts inside relationships long before behavior changesIncreased awareness can temporarily surface tenderness, frustration, or emotional sensitivity — and why that's a natural part of recalibration, not a regressionThis is not mindset work or another communication strategy.Identity-Level Recalibration is a root-level process — the internal realignment that makes every other tool effective again.Throughout the episode, we stay grounded in orientation rather than urgency, recognition before resolution, and companionship over instruction — trusting that clarity emerges as pressure softens.If you've ever wondered:Why am I so tired if nothing is technically wrong?Am I allowed to release this role without destabilizing what we built?What happens when I stop holding everything together?You're not late. And you're not alone.Micro Recalibration (today's practice):Notice the role you instinctively step into when something feels off in your relationship.Not to stop doing it.Not to explain it.Just to recognize it — and gently remind yourself:This role protected me once.

It's the 23rd January 1879, one of the most momentous days in South African history has passed, and the ripple effect will be felt across the world. For missionary Otto Witt it was a time of particular terror. He had fled his mission station, Rorke's Drift, and now it was smashed to bits, the house which had doubled up as a hospital burned to the ground, the main warehouse which had been his church, broken, bloody. Witt had fled the day before and sought out his wife and children who he'd sent on to Msinga once it became apparent the British were going to invade Zululand. Witt had lost his way up the Biggarsberg escarpment on the terrifying night of the 22nd January, and staggered into the Gordon Memorial Mission at Msinga the next morning - but his wife Elin and their 3 young children had already left. He didn't know this — merely that she wasn't there. Elin had been told by refugees streaming away from Isandlwana that Otto had been killed at Rorke's Drift. So both believed the other dead. The family spent five days believing they were widows and orphans. The confusion was only cleared up when Witt finally tracked Erin's wagon trail to Pietermaritzburg where the family was reunited, exhausted and traumatized, but physically unharmed. In Newcastle, Maud Bradstreet had just assisted her friend, Mrs. Hitchcock, in delivering a baby girl named Georgina. Their joy was short-lived, however, as news arrived that the Newcastle Mounted Rifles had been decimated at Isandlwana—both of their husbands were among the dead. The two women set out for the Orange Free State, a grueling week-long journey by horse and cart, surviving on very little including water strained through a mealie bag. This was the raw reality for the survivors - later in the episode we'll hear from the Zulu. On the morning of January 23rd, a messenger reached Helpmekaar with a brief note from Lieutenant Chard Rorke's Drift commander Defying the grim expectations of the men at the camp, they had miraculously held their ground through the night. Back at Isandlwana, Chelmsford had awoken his men and rode away from the scene of carnage before dawn, one of the men had found the mangled body of Lieutenant Colonel Pulleine, Isandlwana's commanding officer, then the column passed down Manzimyama Valley. They moved past homesteads that had been abandoned only a day prior, but now the inhabitants were creeping back. Through the doorway of a single hut, they saw an Inyanga tending to amaQungebeni warriors who had likely fought at Isandlwana. The tension snapped; soldiers of the Natal Native Contingent opened fire and killed a man before order could be restored. A seething anger swirled through the British column, Trooper Fred Jones, one of the survivors of the Newcastle Mounted Rifles was not in a forgiving mood. “We saw red…” he admitted “ Exhausted and broken, the warriors shuffled forward, dragging their shields in the dust. The uThulwana were stunned—they thought no British soldiers were left alive after Isandlwana. For a long, tense moment, the two forces stared at one another across a distance easily covered by a bullet. Yet, neither side pulled a trigger. It was, as historian Ian Knight notes, a surreal conclusion to an extraordinary 48 hours: two armies, both feeling the weight of defeat, watching each other move silently into the distance. King Cetshwayo kaMpande did not get an accurate version of events at Rorke's Drift at first. Back at oNdini, Dabulamanzi reported that he had stormed and successfully taken the house… attacked again then retired…but admitted that he had suffered heavily …” It was to take another ten days before the warriors returned to oNdini and had been ritually cleansed .. only then did Cetshwayo address them in his huge cattle kraal. “If you think you have finished with all the white men you are wrong, because they are still coming…” he warned.

Pete and Nikki kick off the new season by naming the thing nobody wants to put on a vision board: the post-holiday crash. If you've come out the other side feeling “behind,” they argue you're not failing—you're recovering. And because ADHD loves a transition about as much as it loves a quiet restaurant, that return-to-normal whiplash can hit harder than you expect.The temptation, of course, is to fix the feeling by buying a brand-new feeling: new planner, new system, new you, new personality, new carbon-based lifeform. Nikki gently drags that impulse into the daylight and offers a more realistic move—skip the reinvention and reestablish one anchor routine you already know helps. Something small, repeatable, and boring in the way that's actually useful, whether it's hydration, an end-of-day reset, or getting sleep back on purpose instead of by accident.They also lean into compassionate reframing—swapping the “I blew it” narrative for language that's both true and less cruel—because shame is a famously unreliable productivity tool. There's a new resource tied to that idea, too, and it's meant to be the quick handrail you grab when January starts acting like a performance review.Links & Notes

You walk out of a conference (or finish a webinar) with pages of notes and a head full of ideas… and for about 48 hours, you're fired up. Then Monday hits.A deal blows up. A Realtor needs something “right now.” Underwriting asks for one more thing. Your phone never stops buzzing. And the strategy you promised yourself you'd finally implement (your CRM, referral follow-up, content, process) gets pushed to the side again.In this episode of The 360 Experience Podcast, Loan Atlas founder Tim Braheem steps into the guest seat for a direct, unscripted conversation about the real reason most mortgage professionals stay stuck: planning without execution, and execution without a plan. With more than 30 years in the mortgage industry, experience as a top-producing originator, and over 15 years coaching elite producers, Tim knows exactly how the best originators actually create momentum…and what keeps most from reaching the next level.Top Takeaways for Loan Officers:1️⃣ How to design a simple business plan that actually gets implemented (why 1–3 goals beats 12 every time)2️⃣ How to stop abandoning personal and professional goals halfway through by mapping clear, realistic action steps before you commit3️⃣ How to carve out sacred “on-the-business” time that compounds into higher income, better systems, and less burnoutThis is the framework Tim has taught to high-performing loan officers who've built scalable businesses and lives they enjoy. If you've been working hard but feeling scattered, reactive, or frustrated by unfinished initiatives, this episode will help you slow down, get clear, and start executing with confidence again.ABOUT TIM BRAHEEMWith more than 25 years of experience as a highly successful mortgage professional, industry leader, educator, and life coach, Tim Braheem is committed to engaging with people on a deep level and helping them uncover the barriers they have placed in the way of having the level of success they deserve in both their business and personal lives.FOLLOW Instagram ► https://www.instagram.com/tbraheem/LinkedIn ► https://www.linkedin.com/in/timbraheemTHE LOAN ATLASJOIN ► https://go.theloanatlas.com/membership FOLLOWInstagram ► https://www.instagram.com/theloanatlas/YOUTUBE ► https://www.youtube.com/@LoanAtlas----------

When Hustle Culture Steals Your Peace and Leaves You Exhausted—and What You Actually Need Instead If you're a working Christian mom who ended the holidays feeling more exhausted than refreshed, you're not alone. As routines return and responsibilities pile back on, many moms find themselves carrying guilt for resting at all—wondering why peace feels so far away. In this episode, we talk honestly about how hustle culture quietly steals our peace and convinces us that our worth is tied to productivity. We unpack why exhaustion isn't a sign you need to push harder, but often a signal that your soul is longing for rest and trust in God. Using Exodus 14:14—“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still”—we explore how biblical stillness is not passivity, laziness, or giving up. It's surrender. It's choosing to stop striving, stop proving, and allow God to fight battles we were never meant to carry. You'll hear encouragement for the working mom who feels behind, overwhelmed, and unsure if she's doing enough—and a reminder that the peace of Jesus isn't something you earn through perfect performance. It's a gift freely offered, even in seasons of exhaustion, uncertainty, and unmet expectations. This episode will help you: Identify how hustle culture fuels exhaustion and mom guilt Release the belief that your value is tied to productivity Understand what biblical rest and stillness really mean Shift from striving to trusting God with your time, work, and family Embrace peace that doesn't depend on having it all together If you're longing for more peace and less pressure—especially as you balance faith, family, and work—this conversation will gently point you back to the rest Jesus offers.   Questions to consider as you work through your week: Where am I hustling when God is inviting me to rest? Where am I carrying guilt that He's already forgiven? Where can I pause today and remember I am loved, not for what I do, but for who I am in Him?

Feeling exhausted, wired, and stuck in a loop of burnout? You do everything right: sleep, clean eating, supplements…but still feel like your energy is on fumes. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why hormone tests alone often miss the root cause. We'll dive deep into how mineral depletion (you read that right) is the missing piece of the puzzle for many over-functioning, type-A women. You'll learn: • The true signs of burnout vs. what's "normal aging" • What your body is trying to tell you by saying "you can't rest" • How I use HTMA (hair mineral analysis) in my practice (and why we start there) • Patterns I see in high-achieving women over 40 • Actionable steps to rebuild energy physically, emotionally, and hormonally This one's for the woman who literally can't slow down, even though her body is begging her to.

Unapologetically Me

This episode came from realizing that something I called “self-care” was actually costing me more than I wanted to admit. I've spent years talking about living unapologetically - building businesses, raising kids, and helping women step into confidence. But I hadn't fully questioned the expectations I'd absorbed around aging and appearance. Instead of chasing youth, I started asking different questions about sustainability, health, and longevity - especially as a mother later in life. This conversation isn't about rejecting beauty or telling anyone what to do. It's about examining the pressure women quietly live under and deciding what's actually worth keeping. This episode is an honest reflection on aging, identity, and choosing what aligns with the life you want now - not the standards you inherited.

In this week's episode, we explore a deceptively simple question: How do you be interconnectedness? It's drawn from the first video in Michael's online course, "Embodying Ethics & Vows in Modern Life," a nine-week program weaving Buddhist and yogic ethics into the fabric of daily life. We are living in a time when people are asking big questions. Exhausted by the news and often feeling fear, sadness, or anxiety, we wonder: What do we do? How do we stay plugged into our values, and how can we be of service? For the next few weeks, we'll be posting excerpts and "Best of" episodes focused on The Five Ethics: • Ahimsa (Non-Violence): I will do no harm, recognizing that I am connected to all living beings. • Satya (Honesty): I will speak the truth as I perceive it and not deceive anyone. • Asteya (Non-Stealing): I will be satisfied with what I have and only take what is freely given. • Brahmacharya (Wise Use of Energy): I will encounter all beings with respect and dignity. • Aparigraha (Non-Greed): I will use all the ingredients of my life and practice generosity. Join us to learn how these ethical principles can ground you in modern life.

Bedtime History: Inspirational Stories for Kids and Families

Chief Joseph was a leader of the Nez Perce people in the Pacific Northwest. When the U.S. government forced his tribe from their homeland, he tried to lead his people to safety in Canada. For months, they traveled hundreds of miles, chased by the U.S. Army. Exhausted and outnumbered, Chief Joseph finally surrendered in 1877, saying the famous words, “I will fight no more forever.” His bravery, leadership, and compassion made him one of the most respected Native American figures in history.
