Tim Shurr is a world-renowned Peak Performance Mind Architect for millionaires, business owners, and high-achieving professionals. Tim quickly releases people from mental blocks while rapidly accelerating what he calls 'Peaceful Success' using subconscious reprogramming strategies developed over 36 years of research. His One Belief Away method is changing the game when it comes to freeing people from anxiety and attaining goals faster. He says you are just one belief away from your next big breakthrough. In this episode, Tim explains how childhood-formed limiting beliefs drive habits, emotions, and self-sabotage, and outlines a streamlined process: trace uncomfortable feelings to their root, provide missing inner resources, upgrade the core belief, and release trapped emotions like shame or anger. Using a client example of overcoming perfectionism, they discuss separating self-worth from achievements or body image, fostering self-compassion, and viewing life's challenges as game-like opportunities—where upgrading just one belief unlocks the next breakthrough.

Dr. Ryan Gray and Dr. Christine Crispin break down a realistic path from freshman year through application season. First year, be a college student: master study habits, time management, and campus life. Then add experiences gradually—a toe‑dip into service or shadowing—without sacrificing grades. Map your courses to the MCAT at your institution, and use advising sparingly but strategically to avoid wrong turns. Learn how small, consistent hours in clinical work, non‑clinical service, and shadowing compound over time and why research is valuable but not required unless you're MD‑PhD bound. They clarify what truly counts as clinical, how to choose non‑clinical service when options are limited, and why reflection and authenticity—not themes and checkboxes—elevate your application. You'll also hear how to decide on a gap year, the real risk of applying later in a rolling admissions process, and a practical plan for letters of recommendation, including committee letter pitfalls. This conversation replaces pressure with...

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Heather R. Younger. CEO, workplace culture expert, author, and founder of a major employee engagement consultancy—joins Rushion McDonald to discuss leadership, employee empowerment, navigating fear, and self‑leadership in modern workplaces. She shares her personal experiences with layoffs, career uncertainty, anxiety, and leadership failures—and how these experiences shaped her mission to be “the voice for the voiceless” in organizational culture. They explore the emotional realities of layoffs vs. terminations, how employees can take control of their professional well‑being, and Heather’s framework for identifying and overcoming fear. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW 1. To introduce Heather’s work and mission She champions active listening, employee empowerment, and self‑leadership after personally reading 30,000+ employee surveys and leading 100+ focus groups. 2. To teach listeners how to navigate workplace uncertainty She provides strategies for dealing with anxiety, job insecurity, change, and inconsistent leadership climates. 3. To share an empowering message about self‑leadership Central idea: No one is coming to save you. You must lead yourself first. 4. To explore how fear holds people back professionally She outlines how fear affects decision‑making, action-taking, and confidence. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Why She Does This Work She witnessed firsthand how mergers, layoffs, and poor communication harm employees. After being laid off with 200+ others, she realized she needed to become the “voice of reason” who turns employee concerns into actionable insights for leaders. 2. Layoff vs. Termination — Emotional Differences Layoffs: painful but less shame; not personal fault. Termination: usually involves personal accountability, and often carries more shame. Both create a feeling of powerlessness, but each requires emotional processing and reframing. 3. No One Is Coming To Save You Employees must take responsibility for: Their growth Their mental health Their career progression Their emotional well‑being HR cannot save you, Heather says—they play a dual role and cannot be personal rescuers. 4. Managing Workplace Anxiety Key strategies include: Nightly reflection → Write down what went well and what you controlled. Reframing → Turning irrational fears into rational thoughts. Breathing, sunlight, walking, self‑care → Especially for anxiety. Intentional mindset‑switching → Choosing thoughts that serve you. 5. The Five Ways Fear Holds You Back Professionally Heather identifies several fear patterns: 1. Fear of Feedback Avoiding action because you’re afraid of what others may say. 2. Fear of Retribution / Getting in Trouble Hesitating to take risks or initiative. 3. Fear of Speaking Up Not challenging authority or expressing dissenting opinions due to lack of psychological safety. 4. Fear Rooted in Family / Cultural Conditioning Inherited fear patterns from parents, grandparents, or trauma. 5. Fear of Regret / Non‑Action She teaches a powerful question: “What will I regret the longest—doing the thing or not doing the thing?” This question accelerates decision‑making and breaks the paralysis of fear. 6. Take Ownership of Your Life — Self‑Leadership Become the Chief Iterator of Your Life → Continue refining yourself like a living prototype. Accept mistakes as part of growth. Avoid perfectionism; aim for continuous improvement. 7. Practical Daily Habits Prepare mentally each night. Hydrate, sleep well, move your body. Train yourself to take small positive actions daily. NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Self‑Leadership “Ain’t nobody coming to save me. And in the workplace, no one’s coming to save you.” On Fear “Feedback is a gift—even if it hurts.” “We sit around waiting for green lights, access, invitations… It’s not coming. We need to seize it.” “What is the thing you will regret the longest—doing it or not doing it?” On Navigating Change “You get to fight tooth and nail for your own mental space.” On Personal Growth “See yourself as a work in progress—a constant iteration.” On Workplace Emotions “With layoffs, you didn’t have a hand in it. With termination, there’s more shame.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ever thought it might be possible to stay in Paris for 20 nights without paying rent? In this episode, Annie Sargent chats with Liz Van Montfort, a traveler who's cracked the code on home exchange—the savvy way to explore France (or anywhere!) without breaking the bank. Liz shares how she spent three weeks in a Parisian apartment during the Rugby World Cup using Guest Points, plus a night in a 17th-century Dijon hotel, all while avoiding Airbnb's pitfalls. Listen to this episode ad-free Liz breaks down the two types of home exchanges: reciprocal swaps (you stay in their home, they stay in yours) and Guest Points, a flexible system where you earn points by hosting others and spend them on stays worldwide. No fancy house required—Liz's Christchurch townhouse (complete with a communal pool!) has attracted exchanges from Sydney to Provence. She reveals how to prep your home, from welcome booklets to leaving local treats, and why guests often leave the place cleaner than they found it. But why ditch Airbnb? Liz's Barcelona nightmare—stranded with luggage after a last-minute cancellation—will make you think twice. Home exchange offers verified members, insurance, and backup plans if things go wrong. Annie adds that it's perfect for slow travelers, families, and anyone tired of tourist traps. You'll live like a local, with kitchens, laundries, and neighborhood cafés at your fingertips. After the chat, Annie dives into Paris 2026 updates: the Tour Triangle skyscraper, Louis Vuitton's Champs-Élysées hotel, and the Place de la Concorde's pedestrian makeover. Whether you're planning a trip or just love armchair travel, this episode is packed with insider tips, cultural gems, and budget-friendly hacks.

What followed was a confrontation with authority, handcuffs, and a moment that forced him to confront the legal and emotional consequences of impersonation.Through honest storytelling, Corey reflects on the pressure of physical security testing, the thin line between authorization and trouble, and the lessons he carried forward in his career. This episode serves as a cautionary tale about understanding boundaries, respecting authority, and the unseen risks behind revealing what's hidden.00:00 Introduction to Corey LeBleu and His Journey03:34 Corey's Early Career and Learning Path06:34 The Role of Mentorship in Pen Testing09:19 Experiences in Social Engineering and Physical Pen Testing12:22 The Handcuff Incident: A Lesson in Risk15:12 Transitioning to Web Application Pen Testing18:01 The Evolution of Pen Testing Practices20:48 The Impact of AI on Pen Testing23:42 The Future of Pen Testing and Learning for Beginners26:28 Navigating Active Directory and Pen Testing Tools27:35 Essential Training for Web App Pen Testing30:34 Advice for Aspiring Pen Testers32:30 Exploring AI and Learning Resources37:05 Personal Interests and Hobbies39:17 Living in Austin and Local Music SceneSYMLINKS[LinkedIn] – https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreylebleu/Primary platform Corey recommends for connecting with him professionally.[Relic Security] – https://www.relixsecurity.com/Cybersecurity consulting firm founded and run by Corey LeBleu, focused primarily on web application penetration testing and offensive security work.[PortSwigger Academy] – https://portswigger.net/web-securityA free and advanced online training platform for web application security, created by the makers of Burp Suite.

One effective marketing approach she recommends is creating short, one-to-five-minute videos that highlight the vibrancy of life and creativity at any age. Storytelling is a key part of Jean Carlson's mission; sharing his journey helps others see that art can open new paths after retirement, leading to new relationships and experiences instead of isolation. she stresses the value of digital communities, such as Zoom groups, to build connections that go beyond local boundaries. For Jean Carlson success isn't just about sales or fame but about the personal transformation and joy that art brings. sheencourages artists to start marketing themselves without fear, using available tools and being authentic. Looking forward, Jean Carlson aims to continue evolving as an artist while inspiring others to embrace creativity later in life. her practical advice for launching an artistic career at any age includes: 1. Start sharing your work online, 2. Post regularly to engage your audience, and 3. Connect with digital communities for support.

Most hunters train hard. Very few train right. In this episode, Cliff sits down with Scott Johnston, co-author of Training for the Uphill Athlete and founder of Evoke Endurance, to break down why high-intensity training actually works against mountain hunters.They unpack the biggest misconception in hunting fitness: trying to train exhaustion instead of capacity. Scott explains, in plain language, why endurance is a metabolic problem, not a grit problem, and why zone-2 aerobic development is the foundation for moving better, recovering faster, and shooting more accurately under fatigue.They connect the dots between mountain hunting, special operations selection, and endurance sports, showing why aerobic capacity directly impacts decision-making, fine motor skills, recovery between stalks, and multi-day performance. Cliff ties it back to real guiding experiences with elk, goat, and sheep hunters who simply could not recover once they went anaerobic.This is not about suffering more. It's about building a system that actually works when it matters.Evoke Endurance Backcountry Hunting Program: https://evokeendurance.com/training-plans/backcountry-hunting-training-plan/TrainingPeaks Marketplace: https://www.trainingpeaks.com/training-plans/other/tp-611567/backcountry-hunting-training-plan00:00:56 The fitness problem in hunting00:02:00 Who Scott Johnston is00:07:00 Why training transfers across sports00:10:20 Fitness as the only controllable00:18:30 Aerobic vs anaerobic systems00:31:30 Aerobic deficiency explained00:37:30 Time commitment realities00:45:15 Why hill sprints fail hunters00:52:00 Recovery and multi day hunts01:11:00 Fitness impact on shooting accuracyResources from Scott and Evoke Endurance:Evoke Endurance: https://evokeendurance.com/Training For the Uphill Athlete: https://amzn.to/4qgQ1WQThe Fastest Way to Get Good at Elk Hunting.

Unlocked Patreon episode. Support Ordinary Unhappiness on Patreon to get access to all the exclusive episodes. patreon.com/OrdinaryUnhappinessHappy New Year! We're off this week taking a belated holiday rest. But as a complement to our miniseries on projective identification with Brian Ngo-Smith, we're unlocking this episode featuring another returning audience favorite: Lily Scherlis. Lily leads Abby and Dan on a deep dive into the psychoanalytic study of groups, from its history and roots in Wilfred Bion's theories to her own personal experiences and reportage. Like our recent episodes with Brian, the conversation expands to thinking about groups more broadly, and into the arena of contemporary politics in general and the challenges of leftist solidarity specifically. -Abby and Dan sit down with writer and performance artist Lily Scherlis to talk about her new essay for n+1, “Experiences in Groups” (a title that does homage to Wilfred Bion's influential 1961 book of the same name). They discuss Lily's experience at the 2024 Tavistock conference, the meaning of “group relations,” and the fantasies it can generate for those committed to leftist politics, before turning to their own experiences in groups and Bion's influence on each of their lives.  Lily Scherlis, “Experiences in Groups”: https://www.nplusonemag.com/issue-51/essays/experiences-in-groups/Wilfred Bion, Experiences in Groups: https://bookshop.org/p/books/experiences-in-groups-and-other-papers-w-r-bion/0d24f44dde25497d?ean=9780415040204&next=t&Nov 14th event of interest to NYC listeners: “Group as Form; Deep Study Session with Groups Group” (registration and fee required): https://www.poetryproject.org/events/group-as-form-deep-study-session-with-groups-group?page=1Our previous episode with Lily, “From Boundaries to Attachment: The Uses and Abuses of Pop Psychology”: https://ordinaryunhappiness.buzzsprout.com/2131830/episodes/17036523-98-from-boundaries-to-attachment-the-uses-and-abuses-of-pop-psychology-feat-lily-scherlisOur previous episode on Bion's Experiences in Groups with Christine Smallwood: “From Parties to Projective Identification: Why Is Group Life So Hard?”: https://ordinaryunhappiness.buzzsprout.com/2131830/episodes/13002667-12-from-parties-to-projective-identification-why-is-group-life-so-hard-feat-christine-smallwood

Welcome dear listeners, to our series of ‘Short Haunts' – a shot of scary ... just for you. So, grab a hot chocolate, maybe a tea, maybe something stronger … because this is Haunted UK Podcast's 'Short Haunts - A Life of Haunting Experiences'. So many times, on this show, we've heard accounts of people who seem to experience the paranormal, or supernatural, on multiple occasions. Many others go through life never having any type of encounter at all.

Are they somehow able to influence these strange phenomena to occur? Whatever exists beyond the veil of the world of the living, if anything exists at all, is it somehow attracted to the energy of these types of people?Presented by Steve HollowayProduced by Pink Flamingo Home Studios Do you have an interesting story which features the paranormal?If so, your story could be featured in our series ‘Short Haunts'.

We're back from the holidays with fresh stories, fresh takes, and a little chaos. Andrew revisits 'Heated Rivalry' now that it's fully shifted from steamy to surprisingly heartfelt, and Laura checks in on Venezuela with some uneasy historical déjà vu. Then we dig into what we've lost (and maybe found again) when it comes to communal millennial experiences, before asking our Patrons to give us their top hacks for finding cheap communal experiences in our cities. Our listeners came through! Art collectives, silent book clubs, run clubs, and parent groups are just a few of the examples that are inspiring us in the new year! We've (of course) got some top recs for y'all to kick off 2026: 'Heated Rivalry' on HBO Max (Andrew), 'Heretic' on HBO Max (Laura), and vision boarding to set intentions for 2026 (Pam). And in this week's installment of After Dark: Andrew gets into some crusin' stories that are too hot for the main show - including a full account of what he purchased in Mexico.
