After dealing with a string of autoimmune issues and becoming a mom, fitness took a bit of a backseat. But, around 2018, a fellow photographer started their bodybuilding journey and it sparked a flame in her life. She dove in head first in 2019, and hasn't looked back since.

In this episode of Southside Rabbi, Trip Lee, KB and Ameen fire up a passionate conversation about the sacred discipline of reading — not just as a hobby, but as a spiritual act. From their own journeys of falling in love with books after coming to faith, to reflecting on how God chose words as His primary way to communicate with humanity, this episode challenges listeners to rediscover the power of the written word. From examining how we've traded depth for digital speed, to how Frederick Douglass risked his life to read, and why even fiction can renew our imagination and empathy, this convo is packed with depth. They share stories about how to learn to love reading, the importance of learning from the past generations while passing down wisdom to the next generations, and how “the kingdom is slow” — because growth, understanding, and faith all take time. So whether you're a lifelong bookworm, or someone who hasn't flipped a page in years, this episode is an invitation to pick up a book, open the Scriptures, and remember that reading is much more than information — it's illumination.

In this episode of Tea with GaryVee 93, I talk about what to do when life forces you to make a change, whether that's losing your job, starting over, or finally going all in on your side hustle. I share my two cents on why LinkedIn is your new resume, how to turn passion into profit, and why falling in love with hard things is the real unlock. I also share thoughts on complaining vs. taking action, the rise of live social shopping, and how giving yourself grace can help you build momentum instead of burnout.
Dr. Aisha Dad, a Research Affiliate at the Carolina Asia Center and Director of the Classics Gaming Collaborative, joins Lexie to discuss her move from medicine to falling in love with literature and classics, her work in reception studies, particularly in how ancient stories are retold in modern contexts such as video games and literature, the challenges of being a person of color in the field and the importance of rethinking what constitutes 'classics'.

Send us a textThere's a lot of dating advice out there saying the “right” love should feel calm, steady, and like home. No butterflies. No activation. No intensity. Just safety.But love is not meant to keep you comfortable. Love is disruptive. It opens the rooms inside of you that haven't been met yet. It asks you to expand, to feel more, to grow. Nervous system regulation isn't the end goal. It's the ground you stand on, so you have the capacity to actually live, feel, and love fully.In this episode, we look at attraction as a guide rather than a problem. We debunk the idea that if you feel activated, you must be trauma-bonding or doing something wrong. There is wisdom in what draws you toward someone. The invitation is to learn how to work with it.

Youtubehttps://beacons.ai/ellemonaeSpotifyBioElle Mona'e is an artist you may recognize without realizing it. She popularity as a Bombshell on Season 2 of Netflix's hit series Too Hot to Handle, quickly becoming a fan favorite. Since then, she has expanded into the music world to share a new and deeply passionate side of herself.Her latest single, “Land of Groove,” lives up to its name. Blending pop and dance elements with an ethereal, space-like vibe, the song invites listeners to lose themselves in its infectious rhythm. With playful, step-inspired lyrics reminiscent of timeless dance anthems, Elle creates a sound that's fun, uplifting, and perfect for all audiences.Falling in love with the production process, Elle collaborated with a songwriter who truly understood her vision. “I told him my whole vibe was fun. I wanted people of all ages to be able to dance to this. I wanted it to be a truly feel-good song,” she shares. “We bounced some ideas around, and that's how ‘Land of Groove' came to be.”Though “Land of Groove” is a re-release, Elle brings a new sense of confidence and purpose to this version. “I was proud of myself the first time I released the track,” she says. “Now I have even more confidence because I know there's an audience for it and I know how to continue giving them what they want. This time around, I'm even more excited.”While “Land of Groove” thrives in the dance-pop lane, Elle's upcoming release, “Can't Lose,” shifts toward an empowering R&B sound. As an introvert stepping into music, she's learning to share more of herself at her own pace. Her goal is to deliver a variety of genres and moods while staying true to her authentic self.Transitioning from reality TV to music hasn't been without challenges. Although her time on Too Hot to Handlebrought brand deals, event invites, and social media growth, Elle felt something was missing. “In the reality TV world, all you have to do is look good and be a good person. After a while, I wanted more. I wanted to create something that truly represented me,” she explains.That desire led her to music—and she approached it with full motivation and determination. “When you have a talent that you enjoy sharing with others and can also make a profit from it, it opens up a completely new lane for you,” she says.Before Too Hot to Handle, Elle was already making waves as the founder of The Stardust Boutique, a unisex brand specializing in zodiac-inspired apparel, jewelry, and cosmetics. Her entrepreneurial spirit shined during the pandemic when she grew her online presence and business through creativity and social media. One viral post even caught the attention of a casting agent, ultimately leading to her appearance on the show.Looking ahead, Elle plans to release an EP titled Stardust, continuing to build her music career while expanding her creative ventures. With authenticity and alignment at the core of everything she does, Elle Mona'e is entering an exciting new chapter—one filled with rhythm, confidence, and purpose.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Corey welcomes Josh Brown to the show. Josh is the CEO and co-founder of investment advisory firm Ritholtz Wealth Management, as well as an author and co-host of The Compound and Friends podcast. Josh kicks things off by discussing how his lack of formal education in economics sets him apart in the world of financial media, the importance of relying on your own instincts, and what it was like interviewing legendary investor Peter Lynch. He also talks a bit about how he got to where he is today, including falling in love with the stock market from a young age and the "anti-mentors" he had growing up who showed him firsthand what not to do. Plus, he shares his thoughts on financial media. (0:00) Next, Josh explores what's happening with today's bull market – why it's not 1999 all over again, how folks are underestimating the power of earnings, and AI being in a bubble that will inevitably end. After that, he discusses how he helps his clients, why investors should take on risk earlier in life rather than later, and how Ritholtz withstood losing its biggest client a week before launch to grow to where it is today, with more than $6 billion in assets under management. He notes that being able to scale the business responsibly is a balancing act. (12:32) Finally, Josh explains an important lesson he learned from Shake Shack founder Daniel Meyer about putting your employees first, why he wrote his latest book (You Weren't Supposed to See That), and what's different about today's market versus past markets. He points out that even when the Federal Reserve was hiking rates aggressively, the economy was just fine, so clearly our current market doesn't adhere to previous norms. And Josh closes things out with a discussion about why we might never again get a cyclical recession and what worries him about today's market. (26:51)

Kaila's memoir grapples with her experience growing up Asian and female in a world that has so many stereotypes and expectations about both those things. We talk about the pressure to perform so many different kinds of specific beauty labor, the experience of being objectified sexually —and we really get into how we all navigate the dual reality of hating beauty standards and often feeling safer and happier complying with them. I learned so much from this book, and this conversation with Kaila.

Erika Flowers, the Chief Client Officer at Profitable Ideas Exchange (PIE), shares her journey from growing up in Montana and falling in love with cross-country skiing to racing professionally both in the U.S. and internationally. She reflects on how her passion for skiing helped her build strong friendships, instilled resilience, and taught her goal-setting, all skills she later found invaluable in her corporate career.

Episode Highlights · Erika Flowers explains that her initial involvement in skiing was about making friends, but it soon evolved into a passion and a core part of her life. · She highlights how the discipline, teamwork, goal-setting, and resilience developed through cross country skiing directly translate into valuable skills for her career and business, not just for athletes but for anyone with an outside interest or hobby. · Erika Flowers stresses that sharing personal interests at work enhances authenticity, relatability, and connection with colleagues, ultimately making teams stronger. · She describes how by PIE putting people first and becoming a B Corp all supports a healthy, human-centered environment that benefits both employees and clients. · Erika Flowers encourages listeners not to shy away from their hobbies or "Ands," even if they feel niche or irrelevant, because these interests are a source of genuine connection and distinct human value in any professional setting.

This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) hosts solo and hangs out with Danielle Bezalel, host of the Sex Ed with DB podcast (@sexedwithdbpodcast), your go-to podcast for smart, science-backed sex education. Together they take a nostalgic trip down memory lane to the late 90s to talk about why the 1999 romcom Never Been Kissed Should've Been Gay. If you're a younger gay, you may not have seen this 90s classic; but we bet you'll recognize the major names in the cast. We're talking Drew Barrymore, David Arquette, Molly Shannon, Octavia Spencer, and freaking Jessica Alba all in the same movie. If that doesn't convince you to watch it at least one dozen times, we don't know what will. The plot follows Josie, a journalist going undercover at a high school for a story, as she experiences being retraumatized by the popular girls, falling in love with her teacher, and competing for prom queen. As much as we genuinely adore this movie, it is impossible not to talk about the ocean of reasons why Never Been Kissed is not the wholesome, family-friendly movie it was marketed as and is instead highly problematic. We get that Josie is 25 and only pretending to be a high schooler for the sake of her journalism career; but her teacher does not know that and has no reason to think she isn't a 17 year old student. Yet, they are the main romance that the audience is very much supposed to be rooting for. Thankfully, we have our gay glasses on and with a few little changes to the script we can see our path to a much less problematic, and much, much queerer movie. After all, there's something pretty queer already about a 25 year old woman who has never had a romantic kiss or felt sparks from any guy. The school-sized closet Josie is hiding out in is truly made of glass. We know one thing for sure, Never Been Kissed Should've Been Gay.

On episode 312 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson alongside AwardsWatch contributor Josh Parham to go back 20 years and take a look at the 78th Academy Awards, covering the films of 2005. We are finally out of film festival season and the team is back to give you one of their most anticipated Oscar retrospectives of the year, taking a look back at 2005, the year Crash beat Brokeback Mountain for Best Picture. In a time where the center of the film world was focused on a film centered around two gay men falling in love, the Oscars swung the opposite direction and gave it to one of the worst Best Picture winners of all time, a film so vile that its win hasn't aged well the moment it won. Beyond that, it was a fascinating year when the critically acclaimed films of the year took over the top eight categories, while the more populist films made up the winners in the below the line categories; an interesting split in the Oscar wins. In their in-depth discussion, the AW team talked about the film year of 2005, briefly discuss talk about Crash as a Best Picture winner, do an extensive conversation over the below the line categories and nominees for the year, and then the new version of the AW Shoulda Woulda Coulda game, where instead of individual replacements, they must decide as a group who the nominees and winners should be in the top eight categories. The rules of the game state they can only replace two of the nominees that year from each category, except in Best Picture, where the group could replace up to three films to make up the final set of five nominated films. Like past retrospective episodes, it was a fascinating, fun conversation including spirited debates, alliances, vote swinging, celebrating various movies, performances that aren't normally talked about and more that we all hope you enjoy. You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 2h40m. We will be back in next week for an update of the 2025 Oscar season. Till then, let's get into it.

Episode Summary: In this intimate and empowering conversation, Amy Wheeler sits down with yoga therapist, postpartum doula, and mother of two, Alexi Neal, to explore what happens when the yoga practice you've loved for decades no longer serves your body in the same way.Alexi shares her journey from starting yoga at age 12, falling in love with the strength and presence it gave her, to discovering—through chronic pain, pelvic dysfunction, and motherhood—that her hypermobility was both a blessing and a challenge. She opens up about the difficulty of letting go of deep, stretchy poses that felt emotionally nourishing but were damaging her SI joints and pelvic stability.The conversation dives into:How cultural narratives around motherhood and women's health leave many women without the support they needThe physical and emotional realities of hypermobility and pelvic floor dysfunctionWhy heavy strength training became a surprising but essential part of Alexi's healing and empowermentHow honoring boundaries in movement is an act of self-respect and long-term sustainabilityThe “village” mindset and how it applies not only to mothering but to self-careAlexi's story is an invitation to listen deeply to your body, to adapt your practice as life changes, and to recognize that true yoga is not performance—it's about honoring what supports your wholeness today.Connect with Alexi Neal:Website: soulfulsomatics.com (Soulful with two L's)Instagram: @soulfullexi Plans of Study for NDMU Yoga Therapyhttps://livendm.sharepoint.com/sites/Academics/SitePages/Yoga-Therapy-Plans-of-Study.aspx?csf=1&web=1&share=EeZhGMscDMFOl1Lk0PD6gOsBTxvKkWvbfjhHLmMMuNpLFw&e=ApOX4h&CID=45c542e6-5528-4c68-a8ac-5596fb4fc161School of Integrative Health at NDMU: https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-healthMaster of Science in Yoga Therapy at NDMU https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy Explore NDMU's Post-Master's Certificate in Therapeutic Yoga Practices, designed specifically for licensed healthcare professionals. https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy/post-masters-certificate-in-therapeutic-yoga-practices Try our Post-Bac Ayurveda Certification Program at NDMU: https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/ayurveda/post-baccalaureate-ayurveda-certification #IntegrativeHealth #HealthcareEducation #InterprofessionalEducation #GraduateSchool #NDMUproud #SOIHproud #SOIHYoga #SOIHAyurveda #NDMUYoga #NDMUAyurveda #SOIHGraduateSchool
With the NBA season just getting started, Jimmy sits down with Utah Jazz legend Thurl “Big T” Bailey for a wide-ranging, heartfelt conversation. Thurl looks back on being the No. 7 pick in 1983, falling in love with Utah and its fans, and the lessons his mom taught him about letting basketball open doors to serve the community. He also relives NC State's iconic 1983 title run with Jimmy V—manifesting by “practicing” cutting down the nets, the game plan against Phi Slama Jama, and why leadership, belief, and defense still win.The conversation turns deeply personal as Thurl shares his journey of faith and conversion to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, meeting his wife, and how their love endured family pushback before ultimately bringing everyone together. They wrap with candid Jazz talk—young core optimism, what it takes for small-market contenders today, ideas to spice up the NBA (U.S. vs. World All-Star), and why Ryan Smith's vision across Utah sports has Thurl genuinely excited.00:00 Introduction01:30 Thurl Bailey on joining the Utah Jazz and embracing Utah06:30 The legendary NC State championship run with Jim Valvano13:00 Thurl's faith journey and conversion to the LDS Church17:00 Love, family challenges, and lessons in forgiveness22:00 Finding purpose beyond basketball and serving others23:00 The future of the Utah Jazz and today's NBA31:49 Outro
