Podcasts about five areas

David Kessler is one of the world's best-known experts on grief, yet nothing could prepare him for the loss of his beloved son at the age of 21. Just as he'd advised his clients for decades, David attended grief groups, saw a therapist and sat with his pain.  In this episode, Andrew and David discuss how society wants us to grieve versus the reality of loss. We will likely never “get over” the loss of someone close to us, nor will we learn life lessons that somehow compensate us for our pain. It is possible, though, to locate meaning in how we survive and experience loss. Andrew and David also explore Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's famous and now much contested “five stages of grief” (denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance) and discuss how useful they are in today's landscape. David Kessler's new book is Finding Meaning:The Sixth Stage of Grief. His previous books have been praised by Saint (Mother) Theresa, and Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. He has co-authored two books with Louise Hay and Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. David also creates online communities who take courses together to learn more about the process of grieving.   If You're Looking for More….

Most career professionals stay stuck not because they don't have options, but because they're evaluating them against the wrong thing. They compare role to role, company to company, path to path. And because none of the options is obviously better than the others, they keep circling without ever moving. The problem isn't the options. It's the comparison point. In Day 6 of the What Fits You 8-Day Mini Course, you'll use everything you've built across Days 1-5 as the only criteria that actually matters. By the end of today, you'll have a clear shortlist of three opportunities that actually fit you, and a much smaller list of the ones you can stop pursuing.

Trust is the currency of the retreat industry. Guests invest their time, money, and emotional energy into retreat experiences expecting transformation, connection, and professionalism. But often, trust doesn't break in big dramatic moments - it slowly leaks through small gaps in leadership, communication, and delivery. In this episode, Shannon sits down with Debbie Simmons to discuss the five most common "trust leaks" in retreat businesses and how retreat leaders can repair them before they damage reviews, referrals, and long-term loyalty. They break down where trust most often breaks down - from marketing promises to post-retreat follow-up - and how retreat leaders can strengthen their businesses with clearer communication, better boundaries, and stronger operational standards. If you want your retreat guests to return, refer others, and rave about their experience, this episode will help you protect the most valuable asset in your business: trust. Key Takeaways The five most common places trust breaks down in retreat businesses How marketing promises can accidentally set retreat leaders up for failure Why unclear boundaries create confusion and resentment The operational gaps that quietly damage guest experiences The importance of post-retreat follow-up for long-term loyalty About Debbie: Debbie Simmons is a keynote speaker, author, leadership strategist, and CEO of Anchor Point, known as The Legacy Architect who guides high-capacity leaders from success into significance and lives of lasting impact. Her work is built on the Architecture of Trust, the principle that where you place your trust determines both your success and the legacy you build. Through her proprietary framework, The Obedience Engine, Debbie equips executives and entrepreneurs to align identity, leadership, and decision-making so clarity and momentum replace pressure and burnout. She is the author of The Heart of Legacy and the creator of the Vision Day experience, a private leadership environment where leaders reset their trajectory and architect their next chapter. Debbie's message is simple: you were not designed to merely pursue success, you were created to leave a legacy worth living and leaving.

Send us a textThe start of a new year is often framed as a time for reinvention, big goals, and dramatic change — but for many people, especially those living with alopecia or autoimmune disease, that pressure can feel overwhelming and counterproductive.In this Friday 5 episode, recorded on VJ's birthday eve, she shares five areas she's consciously focusing on in 2026 to support a better, more sustainable life — rooted in regrowth rather than optimisation.You'll hear why building supportive communities is essential for long-term health, how prioritising strength training can support resilience and recovery, and why simplifying daily life creates the conditions the body needs to repair. VJ also reflects on the importance of prioritising friends and family as a form of nervous system support, and how gently expanding your networks and environments can encourage growth without burnout.Throughout the episode, VJ offers practical reflections you can apply to your own life — whether you're navigating chronic symptoms, rebuilding after a difficult period, or simply wanting a steadier way to move forward.This episode provides a grounded framework for approaching the year ahead with clarity, intention, and self-trust — focusing less on doing more, and more on creating the conditions that allow regrowth to happen naturally.

View all cards mentioned in this episode In the second installment of “The Barash Files”, Andy, Anthony, and Zach talk about Cube terminology. They talk about how the language we use effects that kinds of conversations we have which in turn effect the kinds of communities we build. New terminology can enable talking more efficiently about concepts that get condensed into a term, but also make it harder to communicate the nuance and variety in those concepts, potentially making communities harder to enter. Zach shares his thoughts on different parts of cube design, including ideation before anyone touches a card, material choices, what happens during the draft, and in game rules. His hope is to offer new terminology to push the boundaries of what cube designers consider when building a cube.

Dysregulation, or the lack of effective self-regulation, can have negative consequences across various aspects of an individual's life. That is why equipping ourselves and our children with the necessary self-regulation skills is important. Honing these self-regulatory skills not only enriches our own lives but also holds the potential to fortify the fabric of our communities insofar as the areas of self-regulation intricately mold our well-being, influencing how we navigate our feelings and connect with those around us. It's crucial that we recognize the five distinct areas of self-regulation that require cultivation in order to empower children to not only navigate the present effectively but also to flourish in the future. This commitment drives my dedication to this work, as I aim to contribute to the holistic development of these essential self-regulatory skills.Emotional regulation in children and its impact on mental health.Emotional regulation holds immense significance in our parenting journey. Understanding emotional regulation involves managing disappointments, frustrations, or various stimuli that can trigger dysregulation, even something as seemingly minor as the wind blowing for a particularly sensitive child. When children experience emotional dysregulation, it becomes glaringly evident in their behavior. That is why supporting them is vital in helping their nervous system find balance.Emotional dysregulation manifests in diverse ways – from managing frustration to displaying a startle response or experiencing sensory overload. When we strengthen emotional regulation, we contribute to enhanced concentration and better mental health for our children. Moreover, it acts as a shield against stressors, fostering resilience in everyday challenges.The autonomic nervous system and stress response.Moving beyond emotional regulation, the second form of self-regulation lies in the biological aspect. Ensuring that our physical system, specifically the autonomic nervous system, functions appropriately is equally important. When properly tended to, the system transitions seamlessly between a relaxed, parasympathetic state and a heightened, sympathetic dominant state in response to stressors.The process involves a quick assessment of potential threats, allowing the system to decide whether stress is warranted. If a serious threat is identified, the system remains in a heightened state, with cortisol levels elevated. However, a normally functioning system can bring cortisol levels back down when transitioning back to a parasympathetic state, facilitating energy restoration.Living in a constant sympathetic dominant state can lead to exhaustion, disrupted sleep, and various challenges. It's crucial to understand that this dynamic can impact not just adults but also children and teens. Moreover, a well-regulated autonomic nervous system responds when necessary without overreacting. This balance is essential for an effective stress response, allowing our system to react appropriately to both significant and minor stimuli. Self-regulation and cognitive functioning.Another crucial aspect of self-regulation is cognitive functioning. In our diverse world, many of us fall under the umbrella of neurodivergence, encompassing learning issues, attention concerns, autism, and mental health challenges. Proper cognitive self-regulation ensures that our brains operate neither understimulated nor overstimulated, a phenomenon vividly observed in EEG brain maps which we discussed in one of our previous episodes. When our cognitive self-regulation is optimal, we witness improved listening, enhanced problem-solving skills, and better decision-making abilities. This becomes particularly challenging for parents when dealing with bright children who may struggle with problem-solving during moments of...

As financial markets continue to evolve, so does the way individuals and institutions navigate the world of asset allocation, investment strategies, and financial planning. This dynamic shift goes beyond mere adaptation. It represents a proactive response to evolving client needs, a strategic embrace of the demands imposed by the digital age, and a seamless integration of innovative technological solutions designed to revolutionize the fundamental processes of growing, protecting, and distributing wealth.  In this episode, Jack talks with Chip Roame, Founder and Managing Partner of Tiburon Strategic Advisors and Tiburon CEO Summits. Chip is a strategic advisor to over 600 Tiburon corporate member firms. He has also served as an industry-experienced board member for numerous Tiburon member firms and currently serves on 10 boards. Having a good vantage point on where the industry is headed, Chip talks about the five areas of evolution in the wealth management industry — the evolving clients, products and services, markets and distribution channels, marketing and technology tactics, and industry structure. He highlights the dominance of Fidelity, Schwab, Morgan Stanley, and Vanguard in the industry and the growth of discount brokerage firms. Chip also debunks some misconceptions about product data and emphasizes the importance of coordinated approaches in wealth management. Key Takeaways [01:23] - The five key wealth and management industry themes. [03:22] - Why Fidelity, Schwab, Morgan Stanley, and Vanguard remain the dominant and strong firms. [06:38] - Potential contenders to top wealth management firms. [08:26] - Other interesting trends in the industry. [10:07] - The move towards a coordinated pro-solutions approach. [11:33] - The emergence of "supermarket" companies in the financial industry. [14:46] - The changing landscape of platforms and the rise of proprietary technology. [16:25] - Chip's thoughts on the future of the wealth management industry. [20:19] - The shift to digital marketing and technology-driven marketing strategies. [22:08] - Chip's key takeaways. [23:08] - Chip's favorite activities outside of work. Quotes [07:59] - "If you think about those three trends, workplace, retail, and RIAs, those four firms (Fidelity Investments, Schwab, Morgan Stanley, and Vanguard) are positioned for the future. I don't see anyone else is in the right spot for those three trends going forward." ~ Chip Roame [13:17] - "The idea of a mutual fund supermarket was a big aha. And now we're going to have a cash supermarket, a lending supermarket, and a no-load annuity supermarket. You're going to have an estate planning supermarket someday. These are good for customers, and the rest of the world works this way." ~ Chip Roame [20:41] - "The old ways of marketing have died off. And digital marketing or technology-driven marketing is here to stay." ~ Chip Roame Links  Chip Roame on LinkedIn Tiburon Strategic Advisors Tiburon CEO Summits Skip & Chip's Excellent Adventures Fidelity Investments Charles Schwab Morgan Stanley Vanguard Edward Jones LPL Financial Raymond James Flourish Wealth Advisors Sora Finance DPL Financial Partners Payload Envestnet InvestCloud AssetMark eMoney Advisor MoneyGuidePro Orion Advisor Solutions Redtail Technology Edelman Financial Engines Plaid Cetera Wealth Partners Avantax Franklin Templeton Apex Wealth Group Mercer Advisors Mariner Finance CAPTRUST Zoe Financial Smart Asset NerdWallet Sierra Investment Management Connect with our hosts LifeYield Jack Sharry on LinkedIn Jack Sharry on Twitter Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify LinkedIn Twitter Facebook

Podcast: rwh.podbean.com Website: www.runwithhorses.net Youtube: https://youtube.com/@rwhpodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RWHpodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rwh_podcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/RWH_podcast Today we are looking at our spiritual life and introducing five areas where we should be focusing if we want to see consistent progress in our spiritual life.   Welcome to Run With Horses. My name is Norman and my goal is to help you Thrive as as follower of Jesus. The spiritual battles we face are real. The battles of the future will require you to be growing and trusting God even more than you do today. How can you be the person that you need to be to face the challenges of the future? One way is to apply consistent attention to your Spiritual Health. But your overall spiritual health is affected by more than just your prayer and bible reading. Let's look at a few areas that need attention for us to be all that God intends for us to be.   God brings life to those who were once dead. That life has many aspects. Spiritual Life, Mental Life, Physical Life, Relational Life, and Emotional Life are five important parts of the person God has made you. All of those parts can use attention from us as we follow Jesus. We will be looking at each one separately in the next few shows but today I want us to get an overview and consider the whole person. Let's look at a few definitions to get started.   Spiritual Life – The life lived in Jesus, in communion with God. Basics – prayer, spiritual community, bible knowledge. Or three areas of spirituality – doctrine, affection (love) and experience.   Mental Life - Mental life includes emotional, psychological, and social aspects. It is how we think, feel, and act, and determines how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Includes education.   Physical Life – From conception to our last breathe we are physical beings. We don't have control over much of our physical life but our choices do influence our health and ability. Exercise and diet are key.   Relational Life - Humans are interconnected. The family and community play an important role in our lives. Humans are meant to connect with others on a personal and emotional level and strong, fulfilling relationships help people build and maintain emotional health. We need people. Mentors, coworkers, friends.   Emotional Life - There are many types of emotional skills (aka emotional intelligence). These skills: like emotion regulation, gratitude, empathy, and kindness — help you relate better to others and yourself. Feelings don't lead us but they do impact us greatly.   Thanks for joining me today. If you have thoughts or questions about your spiritual life, write me at norman@runwithhorses.net I would love to hear from you. Our lives are complicated with all five of these areas interacting in many ways. The good thing to remember is that God is using all of them in the process of sanctification, preparing us for the day we meet Him face to face. Until that great day, keep running!

The amount of self-respect you possess determines your inner wealth. Think about it: when you respect yourself, you feel valuable, worthy, deserving, and significant. That's the best gift that money can't buy. In order to increase the amount of self-respect you feel, I have outlined five focus areas. As you grow in each of these areas, the amount of self-respect you experience will increase as well. These are building blocks on living a life in which you know you matter and that your life makes a difference.Here are the five building blocks to build powerful self-respect:Make the mission of your life about something greater than your own comfort and security. Sharpen your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual states daily. Move the needle on the quality of the world around you at least once daily without personal motive.Set a general direction for your life, take daily action in that direction, and observe and honor what life is asking from you. Surrender all worry, doubt, and fear. Music Credit: "What's Left of Me" by Wes Hoffman & FriendsLinks & ResourcesTo explore options to create more wealth, success and happiness in your life email Mike Kitko directly at mike@mikekitko.com or put time on my calendar for us to connect.Visit www.innerwealthglobal.com for free resources and tools to create more wealth, success, and happiness in your life and business.Click here to buy a copy of Mike's first book The Imposter in Charge or to access his new book The Prosperity Principles: Seven Accelerators for Elite Business Owners to Achieve Breakthrough levels of Success and Live Soul Out.About Mike: Mike Kitko is an executive self-mastery coach, speaker and author.
