If you've ever laid awake wondering whether to fight for your marriage or finally let go, this episode will feel like a lifeline. Relationship expert and master life coach Sharon Pope joins Wendy to unpack the midlife “stay or go” dilemma: why so many women feel emotionally alone in marriage, how disconnection happens (and how to repair it), and what it really takes to find peace with your decision. You'll hear compassionate, practical guidance on renegotiating your relationship as you evolve, using separation strategically (not as limbo), clearing mental clutter to access your inner wisdom, and why “fine” isn't the life you're here to live. We also explore the fear of the unknown, the impact on kids at every age, and Sharon's path from confusion to clarity—plus next steps if you're ready for Marriage 2.0 or to “Divorce Differently.” What You'll Learn Why midlife marriages often drift into disconnection—and how to rebuild connection How to tell if it's you, your partner, or the circumstances causing the distance The power of renegotiating your marriage as you evolve How to clear mental clutter and access clarity about staying or going Why separation can be a healthy reset, not a failure How to find peace—whether you choose Marriage 2.0 or Divorce Differently

The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode 408 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak DESCRIPTION Join Craig and Pete as they discuss the common struggle of dental professionals feeling they lack time. They explore the paradox of wanting to grow their practices while also seeking more freedom and time for personal life. The discussion delves into the importance of delegation, training associates, and the emotional aspects of time and money. They emphasize the need for first principles thinking to identify true goals and the role of partnerships in achieving growth. TAKEAWAYS Many dentists feel they lack time but seek freedom. The pursuit of money often masks the desire for time. Scaling a dental practice requires effective delegation. Training associates is crucial for business growth. Time and money are emotional concepts, not just physical. First principles thinking helps clarify true goals. Partnerships can enhance business growth and personal satisfaction. The diminishing pie theory can trap dentists in their practices. Personal reflection is essential for understanding one's goals. Finding clarity in what you want is key to happiness.

When a problem keeps showing up in your life like an unwelcome visitor, how do you respond? Maybe the same struggles keep resurfacing despite your best efforts—leaving work at the office, carving out time for what matters, or breaking free from patterns that no longer serve you. It can feel like these challenges are unsolvable, draining your energy, and stealing your peace of mind. These problems aren't unsolvable; the challenge is often in how we approach them. We resist looking at what's painful and dismiss our deepest desires as unrealistic or selfish. In this episode, I share two techniques that flip this pattern. You'll learn how to create containers for difficult emotions, honor your desires without getting lost in logistics, and design small, doable experiments that move you forward when you feel stuck.

The Love, Happiness and Success Podcast With Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby
Have you ever found yourself thinking, “I don't know if I should stay, and I don't know if I should go”? That painful in-between is called relationship ambivalence, and it can quietly drain years of your life if you don't get clarity. In this episode, I'm joined by relationship researcher Dr. Merideth Thompson, who knows that limbo all too well. After staying stuck for nearly a decade, she created Partner Lab, a research-based company focused on improving relationships as a cornerstone of overall wellness. Together we'll explore what the science says about relationship health, the “Clarity Matrix” she developed to cut through the fog, and the real-life questions that matter most when deciding whether to stay or leave. We also talk openly about staying “for the kids,” how familiar but unhealthy dynamics keep us hooked, and why actions, not words, show you whether your partner is really invested. Our goal isn't to tell you whether to stay or go. It's to give you the clarity and confidence to trust yourself again. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Should I Stay or Leave My Relationship? 01:43 Dr. Merideth Thompson's Story and the Birth of Partner Lab 03:34 Research Insights on Relationship Health 09:51 The Clarity Matrix: Influence, Control, and Deal Breakers 14:06 Communication, Conflict Resolution, and Commitment 18:31 Discernment Counseling: Knowing If Change Is Possible 20:24 Actions Speak Louder Than Words in Relationships 28:02 Finding Clarity and Validation in Ambivalence 36:06 Parenting, Divorce, and Protecting Children 44:11 The Clarity Circle: Community and Support Want more support as you practice these skills?

Send us a textDavid Prosper shares his journey to becoming a clarity advocate and how finding clarity transforms our approach to relationships, dating, and self-worth. His mission began while observing capable people in his community failing to reach their potential due to lack of clarity about navigating life intentionally rather than reactively.• Growing up in the projects of Fort Lauderdale inspired David to help others find clarity in their lives• Clarity isn't about having everything figured out, but identifying your next right step• Difficult conversations lead to deeper relationships when approached with truth and grace• Many people struggle to articulate what they want in dating because they're focused on avoiding past hurts• The best intimate experiences come from clear communication about wants and needs• Self-worth builds when we follow through on commitments to ourselves, even small ones• Progress looks different every day - sometimes it's 10%, sometimes 100% - but celebrate all progress• David's book "Finding Clarity" will be released in August 2025You can reach David directly at davidbprosper.com or find him on Instagram @iamprosper1_.Support the showThanks for listening!Check out this site for everthing to know about women's pleasure including video tutorials and great suggestions for bedroom time!!https://for-goodness-sake-omgyes.sjv.io/c/5059274/1463336/17315Take the happiness quiz from Oprah and Arthur Brooks here: https://arthurbrooks.com/buildNEW: Subscribe monthly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805181/support Email questions/comments/feeback to tamara@straightfromthesourcesmouth.co Website: https://straightfromthesourcesmouthpod.net/Instagram: @fromthesourcesmouth_franktalkTwitter: @tamarapodcastYouTube and IG: Tamara_Schoon_comic

Reinventing your life or career starts with reflection and conversation. Making the leap — to a new career, to the next stage of a relationship, or to a different version of yourself — requires honest communication. For Ilana Golan, being “leap-ready” requires that we answer three questions: Why me? Why this? And why now?Golan knows all about these leaps, as her career spans corporate executive roles, entrepreneurship, and even F-16 flight instruction. As the founder of Leap Academy and host of the Leap Academy Podcast, she helps equip others to navigate their own personal and professional reinventions. As she says, “It's really about communicating from the vision,” which starts as an inside job. “Why is this the right thing for me right now? You convince yourself first, because when you're [at] peace with what you're trying to do, it's a lot easier to convince others.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Golan and host Matt Abrahams explore how honest communication shapes every stage of reinvention, whether that's listening to the signals your mind and body are sending you — like “sleepwalking through life” and imagining something more — or articulating your pivot in ways that create understanding rather than resistance. Wherever you hope to leap, Golan's insights show how to communicate through change with confidence and clarity.Episode Reference Links:Ilana GolanLeap Academy Podcast | Leap AcademyEp.187 Experimenting, Failing, and Finding Your Job Fit - Catalyze Your CareerEp.147 Disrupt Yourself: How to Innovate Who You Are and Become Who You Can Be Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:39) - Breaking Barriers & Career Patterns (02:18) - Waking Up to Change (03:42) - Signs It's Time for a Pivot (06:45) - The Rise of Portfolio Careers (10:17) - Communicating Career Leaps (13:29) - Finding Clarity in Reinvention (20:01) - The Final Three Questions (22:56) - Conclusion *****Thank you to our sponsors.

Een kans die iets veranderde.En: She had received an offer to move abroad, an opportunity that changed something.Nl: Iets dat zowel spannend als angstaanjagend was.En: Something both exciting and frightening.Nl: "Wat als ik de verkeerde keuze maak, Bram?En: "What if I make the wrong choice, Bram?Nl: Ik wil niet dat het gras groener lijkt, terwijl het gewoon... gras is."En: I don't want the grass to seem greener when it's just... grass."Nl: De middagzon zakte verder weg, en de hoge bomen wierpen lange schaduwen.En: The afternoon sun sank further, and the tall trees cast long shadows.Nl: Ondanks vele routes en het netwerk van paden, verloren ze hun oriëntatie.En: Despite the many routes and network of paths, they lost their orientation.Nl: Het pad leek nergens meer heen te leiden.En: The path seemed to lead nowhere anymore.Nl: "Ben je zeker dat het deze kant op was?" vroeg Lieke toen de herkenpunten langzaam vervaagden.En: "Are you sure it was this way?" Lieke asked as the landmarks slowly faded.Nl: "We hebben gewoon een andere hoek genomen," antwoordde Bram, zijn stem zelfverzekerd maar zijn ogen zoekend naar het vertrouwde.En: "We just took a different turn," Bram replied, his voice confident but his eyes searching for the familiar.Nl: Het begon te schemeren, en de lucht die eerst helder was, vulde zich met donkere, dreigende wolken.En: Twilight was setting in, and the sky, once clear, filled with dark, threatening clouds.Nl: Toen brak de zomerstorm los.En: Then the summer storm broke out.Nl: Regen sloeg als kleine kamers op de bladeren om hen heen.En: Rain hammered down on the leaves around them like tiny rooms.Nl: Bram en Lieke zochten snel beschutting.En: Bram and Lieke quickly searched for shelter.Nl: Weg van de modderige paden, ontdekten ze een verlaten hut, verscholen tussen de bomen, net op tijd om aan de regen te ontsnappen.En: Off the muddy paths, they discovered an abandoned cabin, hidden among the trees, just in time to escape the rain.Nl: Binnen, terwijl regeldruppels ritmisch op het dak trommelden, barstte Lieke's onzekerheid open.En: Inside, as raindrops drummed rhythmically on the roof, Lieke's uncertainty burst open.Nl: "Ik weet niet hoe ik kan kiezen.En: "I don't know how to choose.Nl: Blijven is veilig.En: Staying is safe.Nl: Gaan is onbevangen."En: Going is uninhibited."Nl: Bram zuchtte diep, zijn eigen zorgen even vergetend.En: Bram sighed deeply, momentarily forgetting his own worries.Nl: "Misschien," begon hij langzaam, "is de keuze die je bang maakt, juist degene die het meeste voor je betekent.En: "Maybe," he began slowly, "the choice that scares you the most is the one that means the most to you.Nl: Veiligheid is niet altijd de juiste weg."En: Safety isn't always the right path."Nl: Samen, luisterend naar de regen, vonden ze de moed om hun angsten te delen.En: Together, listening to the rain, they found the courage to share their fears.Nl: De storm die buiten raasde leek in hen iets rustigs teweeg te brengen, een wederzijds begrip dat met elke druppel die viel sterker werd.En: The storm raging outside seemed to bring about something calm within them, a mutual understanding that grew stronger with every falling drop.Nl: Na wat uren leek, klaarde de lucht op.En: After what seemed like hours, the sky cleared.Nl: De maan gluurde tussen de wolken en verlichtte hun pad naar buiten.En: The moon peeked between the clouds and illuminated their way out.Nl: Hand in hand keerden ze terug naar het hoofdpad, de richting nu weer duidelijk voor hen.En: Hand in hand, they returned to the main path, the direction now clear to them again.Nl: Na hun terugkeer, wist Lieke wat haar te doen stond.En: Upon their return, Lieke knew what she had to do.Nl: Ze zou de job aannemen. Haar dromen volgen.En: She would take the job, follow her dreams.Nl: En Bram besloot dat het tijd was om met zijn baas te spreken over de druk die hij voelde.En: And Bram decided it was time to talk to his boss about the pressure he felt.Nl: De Hoge Veluwe had hen niet alleen teruggebracht naar de parkeerplaats. Het had hen ook dichter bij zichzelf gebracht, hun twijfels omgezet in vastberadenheid.En: De Hoge Veluwe not only brought them back to the parking lot, but it also brought them closer to themselves, turning their doubts into determination.Nl: En zo stapten ze de toekomst in, samen maar toch elk met hun eigen verhaal verder schrijvend.En: And so, they stepped into the future, together but each continuing to write their own story.

On this episode of Shed and Shine, Rob and Gino explore how time blocking helps us stay aligned with what matters most in both work and life.Driven people often blur the lines between effort and rest. That's why it's essential to schedule both with care. Whether it's taking days off, protecting creative energy, or building buffer time between meetings and vacations, each calendar block becomes a commitment to well-being.Rob and Gino share how knowing your limits can keep you clear and energized. They talk about scheduling new projects right away, choosing the right time for creative work, and giving yourself space before and after vacations. When you make room for yourself in your calendar, you create space to shed the clutter and let your True Self shine. 00:00 The Time Management Dilemma01:30 Understanding Time Blocking03:15 The Importance of Time Off04:36 Finding Clarity in a Choppy Schedule06:00 Maximizing Creative Energy09:30 Cushioning Your Time Off11:00 Overcoming Resistance to Time Blocking14:30 Establishing Non-Negotiables16:05 Making Meetings Meaningful ABOUT THE 10 DISCIPLINESThe 10 Disciplines, founded by Gino Wickman and Rob Dube, is on a mission to help one million entrepreneurs realize it's possible to be driven and have peace while making a bigger impact.

In a world full of spiritual options and endless voices, how do we find truth that actually satisfies? Many say they are “spiritual but not religious,” yet vague faith and curiosity alone can't fill the deep longing of the human heart.In Acts 17, Paul stands in Athens surrounded by idols, philosophers, and seekers. He boldly points beyond empty religion and vague spirituality to the One True God—the Creator, the Giver of life, and the Judge of all the earth. True spirituality isn't about feelings, rituals, or manmade images; it's about knowing and worshiping the God who revealed Himself in Jesus Christ.This message explores: ✅ Why spiritual curiosity by itself will never be enough ✅ The danger of settling for vague, undefined faith ✅ How true spirituality is found in knowing the God who made us and raised Jesus from the deadBlaise Pascal once wrote that every human heart carries an infinite abyss that only God Himself can fill. The same is true today—our search for meaning finds its end in Him.

What if the answer to modern chaos isn't another biohack, supplement, or fitness trend? What if it's simply showing up consistently and doing the unglamorous work of discipline?Charles and Heidi Hatley have built their lives around this counterintuitive wisdom. As the voices behind the Kava and Kettlebells podcast, they're redefining healthy living through authenticity rather than algorithms. In this riveting conversation, we explore why consistency trumps complexity every time – whether in fitness, parenting, or personal growth.The Hatleys pull no punches discussing why most "influencers" offer empty promises while lacking results themselves. We dive into their 4 AM training routines, not because they love early mornings, but because they've built the mental fortitude to do what matters regardless of feeling. As Heidi powerfully states, "People think they want the body or the scale number. That's not what you want. You want the process and the lifestyle that comes with it."Their journey extends beyond the gym. We explore their decision to replace alcohol with kava, a botanical alternative providing relaxation without destructive side effects. This choice wasn't about addiction but alignment – creating a lifestyle where they could be fully present for their children while modeling healthy choices.Perhaps most compelling is their approach to education. Rather than merely complaining about the school system, they homeschool their children. This exemplifies their life philosophy: don't just identify problems—implement solutions. As they point out, our education system hasn't fundamentally changed since the 1880s, teaching compliance rather than crucial life skills.If you're tired of chasing the latest trend only to find yourself back where you started, this conversation offers a refreshing alternative: build discipline, embrace consistency, find meaning in service rather than significance, and measure success not by followers but by lives changed.Join the What if it Did Work movement on FacebookGet the Book!www.omarmedrano.comwww.calendly.com/omarmedrano/15min

Whether you're running a service-based business or balancing a million life demands, this conversation will help you see “the pause” as a strategic power move—not a setback.

Feeling like I'm constantly racing against time yet never truly arriving anywhere meaningful is something I've grappled with for years. Despite achieving outward success, I often find myself emotionally flat, trapped in a cycle of mediocrity. In this episode, I unpack how constant busyness can lead to emotional numbness and even subclinical depression, affecting everyone from high achievers to overwhelmed parents. Together, we explore how coping mechanisms for grief, shame, and chronic stress slowly silence our true feelings, leaving us yearning for a life of genuine emotional engagement and fulfillment.Zombie goals—ambitions declared without real conviction—can haunt even the most well-intentioned among us. I discuss the fine line between maintaining a full calendar and feeling overwhelmed, the auto-reassurance that cloaks our stress, and the "decision drift" where our grand aspirations dissipate into inaction. Through personal stories, I highlight the dangers of digital distractions and emphasize the importance of aligning our behaviors with our beliefs. The episode offers practical pathways to re-sensitize ourselves to the world, helping us reconnect with what truly matters and live more vibrant, purposeful lives.Honesty, both with oneself and the world, emerges as a powerful tool in combating emotional numbness. I explore strategies for upgrading our truth through micro-honesty, reducing emotional suppression, and finding presence in our daily lives. Learn about taking decisive action within a two-minute window to curb indecision and rumination, and discover the joy in sensory experiences that counteract phone addiction. Join me in nurturing a flourishing mental landscape, and embrace a journey toward enhanced well-being, one honest moment at a time.Key highlights:Crushing Mediocrity to Achieve HappinessTransforming Numbing Behaviors for HappinessUpgrading Truth With Micro-HonestyMaking Decisive Moves for HappinessConnect with Alison:Instagram: @alisonanswers | @lagercounselingWebsite: LagerCounseling.comYouTube: Alison AnswersFacebook: Alison Lager Lcsw CasacPurchase Alison's book: “The Wake Up Call”Alison Answers Facebook Group: Join HEREWomen of Excellence FB group: Join HERE

The Love, Happiness and Success Podcast With Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby
Ever feel like no matter how hard you try, you're still not good enough? Like you're outrunning a wolf that lives inside you, always whispering, “You've got more to prove”. But what if fear isn't your enemy? What if it's actually pointing you toward your purpose? In this deeply transformative conversation with bestselling author Mary Marantz, we explore how the experiences that once made us feel underestimated—and the relentless drive to overachieve—can keep us stuck in cycles of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear-fueled productivity. Mary and I unpack the myths of not-enoughness, talk about the parts of ourselves that try to protect us from failure, and offer a new path forward: one where your gifts and your story become your superpowers. Get ready to look at fear differently, reclaim your confidence, and learn to move forward—not from a place of proving, but from a place of purpose.

In part one of this two-part conversation, we walked along the edge of paradox where effort gives way to ease and the search itself becomes the obstacle. In this second part of my conversation with Zen teacher Henry Shukman, the way begins to reveal itself, not as something we grasp, but something we live. We talk about awakening, the collapse of separation, and what it means to encounter reality directly beyond language, beyond self. And we find ourselves circling the same mystery from different directions, Henry through the Zen path and his app The Way and me through a new project with Rebind, which is a new AI powered dialogue with the Tao Te Ching. Different forms, different longing to meet life more honestly, more fully and more whole.Discover a Deeper Path in Meditation – Looking for more than just another meditation app?
