You're not always eating because you're hungry. More often than not, you're eating because your brain is looking for a break from a feeling. In this episode of Weight Loss Made Simple, Dr. Stacy breaks down the five most common emotions that trigger emotional eating — and what you can do instead.We'll cover:

Five years ago, Joe worked side by side with Sue. Their friendship deepened into an affair during a time when both were trapped in loveless marriages. They made plans for a future together… until everything changed. Sue was diagnosed with cancer, and within a year she was gone. Joe was left devastated, grieving in silence, unable to show his pain at work. While sitting at his desk in the middle of the day, Joe felt a sudden hot, buzzing sensation rush through his entire body — unlike anything he'd ever experienced. When he looked up, Sue was standing there. Not a shadow. Not a mist. She looked as real and solid as she had when she was alive. Sue smiled and said, “This place is different now… don't be scared. I've never left.” Joe was frozen, barely able to respond as she walked over to the machine she once operated. Moments later, the warm sensation faded, and she was gone. Exhaustion washed over him, leaving him questioning if it had been a dream — yet he'd been fully awake just moments before. Was it a grief-fueled hallucination, or a real haunting? This true ghost story suggests that sometimes love — and unfinished business — can tether a soul to the places they knew best. #TrueGhostStory #HauntedWorkplace #RealHaunting #SpiritVisitation #SueNeverLeft #ParanormalExperience #GhostEncounter #LoveAfterDeath #HauntedFactory #UnfinishedBusiness #RealGhostStoriesOnline #BuzzingPresence Love real ghost stories?

She discusses how these gains can keep individuals stuck in their current situations, often due to subconscious conditioning and fear of change. The conversation emphasizes the importance of recognizing these patterns to facilitate healing and personal growth, encouraging listeners to examine their own lives and consider how they might be holding themselves back.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Change and Resistance03:12 Understanding Secondary Gain05:43 Conditioning and Its Impact on Behavior08:48 The Role of Exhaustion in Our Lives11:21 Boundaries and the Fear of Visibility14:25 The Familiar Discomfort of Staying Stuck17:14 The Dilemma of Healing vs. Safety19:52 Awareness and the Path to Change21:42 Invitation to Explore and Heal

Digital exhaustion is real. We're working across more apps than ever before, and since they're always accessible, work-life boundaries have disappeared. Combine this with our personal tech, and we've got a recipe for burnout. Paul Leonardi is a Professor of Technology Management at the University of California, Santa Barbara. After decades of business consulting, he's had a front-row seat to employees' digital burnout. What he saw led him to create concrete solutions, which he outlines in his latest book, Digital Exhaustion: Simple Rules for Reclaiming Your Life. These are smart and sensible strategies leaders can put into practice to improve employees' quality of life – and work.

Adapting your leadership style is essential but if you're not careful, it can feel exhausting. In this episode, Ben explains how to shift your style to suit different situations - whether it's being more direct in a crisis or more outgoing when networking, while keeping it sustainable. He draws on personality psychology research, including insights from Brian Little's work on “personal projects,” to help leaders recognise when it's worth stretching themselves and when to restore their energy. The goal: flexible, people-focused leadership that won't compromise your wellbeing. Resources mentioned in this episode: Brian Little – Blog and information on Personal Projects.

This week, The Redeemed Man podcast welcomes back one of its very first guests, licensed counselor and minister Michael Cusick, to talk about his new book Sacred Attachments. In his conversation with Nate Dewberry, Michael explains what attachment means, why it matters, and how the bonds we form, or fail to form, early in life can shape us as adults. He also highlights the importance of openness and honesty, how to guard against “spiritual exhaustion,” and what it means to embrace a “re-imagined” life with God—one marked not by constant activity, but by rest and security in His love. Segments/chapters0:00 Intro/What inspired Michael's latest book3:19 What does attachment mean, and why is it important?11:51 The “Four S's” critical to a child's healthy emotional development15:32 How our sacred attachment to God helps us “exhale” in times of stress and shame24:26 The truth will set you free—not just the truth of the Bible, but what's in our own hearts32:11 God meets us where we're broken, so let's be willing to admit where that is41:38 How God rescues us: the story of Juan CruzVisit The Redeemed's website for downloadable discussion question sets, show notes, inspirational articles, more resources, or to share your testimony.Join our Exclusive Newsletter: Signup today and be the first to get notified on upcoming podcasts and new resources!The Redeemed is an organization giving men from all backgrounds a supportive, judgment-free environment, grounded in Christian love without demanding participation in any faith tradition, where they can open up about their challenges, worries, and failures—and celebrate their triumphs over those struggles.

After two pregnancies—and nearly a year of feeling like she had the flu every day—Morgan (a pediatric cardiology professional and mom of two) was told “labs look normal.” Still, she had daily joint pain, low-grade fevers, shortness of breath, chest pain, dramatic weight loss, GI issues, and profound fatigue.

Burnout recovery often hides behind image management. When leadership becomes about polishing the mask, presence disappears. Discover how Identity-Level Recalibration restores peace, belonging, and whole-self leadership.High-capacity humans often learn early: image is currency. You polish the mask, keep the story clean, hold the role tight — because that's what gets approval, recognition, and access. But here's the hidden cost: the more you manage the image, the further you drift from yourself.This episode explores what happens when leadership becomes about managing appearances instead of leading from identity. Julie shares her own lived story of trying to serve by shifting into roles that felt helpful to others, but losing grounding in the process. It wasn't about pleasing or pretending — it was about carrying and supporting. Yet over time, the cost was presence and authenticity.From there, we dive into the science: predictive processing explains why outdated roles stick. Your brain constantly predicts who you need to be to reduce risk, and your nervous system equates stillness with danger if your history tied slowing down to criticism or rejection. We unpack how composure masks can unintentionally create cultures of bracing instead of belonging — and why no amount of leadership tactics or personal branding hacks can solve this.Instead, integration at the nervous system level is where change happens. This is the heart of Identity-Level Recalibration — not another mindset trick, but the root-level reset that makes every other tool effective.To bring this to life, Julie highlights Jane Goodall, who embodied authentic leadership through presence, integrity, and quiet strength. Her breakthroughs came not from managing her image, but from being fully herself — and the world responded.Today's Micro Recalibration: “I am becoming the person who leads from overflow, not proof.”For leaders: consider how modeling this would shift your culture. When you lead from overflow instead of proof, you give your team permission to do the same.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Last week Ceri shared something different in her episode - Grief, the Technicolour Rattlesnake - and many of her listeners wrote in to say that they recognised it instantly. That rattlesnake is still with many of us. So today, Ceri shares how you can keep making, and functioning creatively, whilst grief moves through you. Ceri provides an alternative to trying to outrun grief by overworking, deadlines and filling every waking hour so there's no space for feeling. Or swinging the other way by hiding from the world and becoming convinced you've lost it. If you're moving through grief right now, you might want to come back to this episode when you don't feel so raw. KEY TAKEAWAYS We mourn, not just for the loved one, but for the person we were, in relation to them and to ourselves. It can feel like the ground has fallen away completely. Grief rewires us. Grief is a non-linear process that involves oscillating between loss and restoration, and it's normal for emotions and productivity to fluctuate during this time. Creative expression during grief doesn't have to meet previous standards. Small, honest acts of making can be both healing and meaningful, even if they feel insignificant at first. Supporting yourself through grief includes caring for your body, mind, and creativity. Movement, mindful breathing, creating micro works and finding safe rituals can all help. BEST MOMENTS "Grief rewires us … it is labour. It's your brain, body and heart rewriting the world without your person in it.” "Exhaustion isn't weakness, it's biology, which is why beating yourself up for not being productive is the cruellest trick of all." "Find your own strange scaffolding, the thing that makes you feel safe or gives your brain a rest, and don't underestimate the power of ritual."

In this radiant episode of Choosing Joy, host Deborah Joy Winans Williams sits down with the one and only Gabourey Sidibe—award-winning actress, director, and mother—to talk about choosing self-worth, navigating colorism, and embracing joy in a world that often tells you you’re not enough. From her unexpected journey into stardom with Precious to raising twins and reclaiming her own story, Gabby opens up with humor, honesty, and an unshakable spirit. She shares how her mother’s influence, her unconventional path into Hollywood, and her deeply grounded sense of self have kept her centered through fame, criticism, and cultural expectations. This conversation goes beyond celebrity—into what it means to love yourself loudly despite the noise. Expect laughter, real talk, a few tears, and a reminder that every person deserves good things. Whether you're an artist, a parent, or just someone trying to find peace in your own skin, this episode is for you. ✨ This is Choosing Joy at its most soulful and powerful.

In this episode, I'm uncovering the real reasons behind women's exhaustion. Tune in to discover why women feel depleted, not lazy.    Key Topics: The difference between being lazy and being truly depleted How chronic stress, overworking, and constant caregiving create the “perfect storm” for burnout The impact of hormonal changes (adrenals, thyroid, estrogen, progesterone) and nervous system dysregulation on women's health Why traditional advice like “just get more sleep” often misses the mark The cultural shift that celebrates overworking and labels rest as laziness The importance of listening to your body's signals and trusting your own experience Practical strategies for healing: nervous system regulation, breathwork, morning sunlight, strength training, and micro-moments of rest Why “less is more” when you're in repair mode, and how to build resilience over time Encouragement for women in perimenopause, menopause, and all stages of life to reclaim their energy and well-being   Let's dive in!

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Jess Baker, business psychologist and author of The Super-Helper Syndrome: A Survival Guide for Compassionate People. Jess helps leaders, project managers, and anyone who tends to take on too much work avoid burnout, preserve self-worth, and build healthier ways of helping. The conversation digs into what “Super-Helper Syndrome” means, how over-helping can lead to exhaustion, resentment, exploitation, or harsh self-criticism, and what beliefs often drive us into that pattern. Jess shares actionable tools for setting boundaries, recognizing irrational helper beliefs, and changing our mindset, including asking “What kind of help is needed here?” to building systems that support sustainable helping. If you're leading projects, teams, or supporting others, these insights will help you avoid overcommitment while still being compassionate.  Sound Bites “Helping others to the detriment of your own wellbeing is something many of us do without noticing.” “When you struggle to say no to requests for help, your relationships are lopsided.

Exhaustion doesn't always point to a lack of faith. Sometimes exhaustion can point to confusion, impatience in God's purposes and the lack of rest in the Lord. What we need in life for our spiritual growth is not more, but maybe a pause for a moment. 

In this episode of Powered By Her, host Tiffany Anton sits down with Jessica Shannon, founder of Scouts Way. Jessica shares her journey as a single mom of three, including her youngest daughter, Scout, who lives with a rare and undiagnosed genetic disorder. From daily medical care and navigating state resources like Tennessee's Katie Beckett program, to balancing work in pharmaceutical sales, entrepreneurship, and family life, Jessica opens up about the challenges and resilience required to keep moving forward. She discusses how Scouts Way is evolving into a resource hub and community for families facing similar circumstances, offering guidance where no roadmap exists. Her story is one of strength, advocacy, and choosing love over exhaustion, providing inspiration for women in business and motherhood alike.

Matt Jones (Breaking Bad, Mom) joins us this week to share how growing up in a tumultuous household shaped him into a devoted family man who prioritizes his family over fame. Matt talks candidly about the dichotomy between who he prides himself to be versus the offbeat, aloof characters he gets typecast as. We also talk about the anxiety he experienced at the height of Breaking Bad, our thoughts on the current state of the entertainment industry, and the powerful work he's done through therapy to heal his past. Thank you to our sponsors:

Have you ever tried to build a life while constantly criticizing yourself and wondering why nothing feels stable? Maybe you push yourself under the bus, act like your own worst critic, or apologize for your needs. When you reject yourself, every boundary crumbles and every goal feels impossible because you're building on quicksand.   In this episode, we dive into why self-acceptance is the real antidote to self-abandonment. We talk about how patterns of people-pleasing, over-functioning, and constant apologizing were survival strategies that made sense at the time, and how they can now keep you stuck. Learn a five-step process to start practicing self-acceptance that will help you make decisions from a place of self-trust, deepen your relationships, and show up fully as yourself.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.ambitious-ish.com/81   Ready to make this fall different?

Have you ever felt resentment building up inside you and pushed it aside? Maybe it's when you're carrying the emotional labor in your relationship, or managing extra work while everyone else seems to coast. Resentment isn't just frustration—it's a signal from your nervous system, telling you where your boundaries have been crossed and where you've been carrying more than your share.   In this episode, we explore why resentment is actually valuable information. You'll walk away with five practical steps for redistributing responsibilities, setting boundaries, and stopping the habit of carrying burdens that aren't yours. We'll also talk about why the discomfort others feel when you set boundaries doesn't mean you're wrong. By listening to your resentment and taking action, you can create a life where you show up from choice, not obligation.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.ambitious-ish.com/80   Register for How To Get Out Of Survival Mode Masterclass 9/12 at noon MT: https://www.kelleandnina.com/registration-page-620d393c-75dc-4a65-ab98-9d7d8443db92   Ready to make this fall different?

Episode Description: You know those days when you wake up tired, and before you know it, you're reaching for coffee, donuts, chips, anything to keep going? You're not imagining it—and you're definitely not lacking willpower. When you're running on empty, there are real changes happening in your body that make cravings stronger and energy harder to manage. In this episode, we'll unpack what's really going on when exhaustion hits, why your body asks for quick fixes, and how to work with those signals instead of feeling like you're fighting against them. I'll share practical ways to balance your energy, support your mood, and make food choices that actually help you feel better—without guilt, shame, or complicated rules. Key Takeaways: Why exhaustion triggers intense cravings  How your hunger and fullness cues change when you're low on sleep Easy ways to stabilize energy without over-restricting or cutting carbs Simple swaps, snack pairings, and hydration hacks that can make a real difference A mindset shift around cravings that takes the pressure off …and more! If you're in one of those seasons where you're just trying to keep up, you don't need another set of rules or someone telling you to “just try harder.” You need compassion. You need space to breathe. And sometimes, it starts with giving your body what it needs without shame. You're doing better than you think.

In the fast-paced, overly scheduled cadence of our culture, it can be hard to fit in Sabbath. But what if Sabbath isn't designed to fit into our busy lives? What if it's supposed to take over our lives? Hebrew scholar and Old Testament professor Travis West is here to help you radically reimagine what it means to Sabbath! And contrary to popular belief, it's not just about taking a day off or creating a list of rules. It's about establishing a rhythm of life that reorders everything.  By looking to Scripture and applying lots of grace, Travis explains how Sabbath draws boundaries around your stress and busyness to make space for rest, delight, connection, and joy. You'll hear how Sabbath can transform your relationship with time, why work shouldn't always come before play, and how simple, intentional practices can reorient your days toward the life God actually intends for you. So, if you're tired of exhaustion being your default setting, listen in! This conversation is your invitation to embrace Sabbath—not as a rule, but as a rescue.

How many people did you ask before making your last decision? Maybe you reached out to a friend, a mentor, or someone you respect, hoping for clarity. You gathered opinions, weighed options, and still felt unsure. Each new voice adds noise, making it harder to hear your own instincts. Constant advice seeking is actually self-abandonment disguised as thorough decision-making.   In part three of our trust series, we explore why you already know what you want but often hesitate to act without everyone else's permission. You'll learn how to tell the difference between getting support and outsourcing your decisions, how to recognize when advice is filtered through someone else's fears or expectations, and why acting from your own judgment is the key to building confidence in yourself.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.ambitious-ish.com/79   Ready to make this fall different?
