Working nights and raising kids doesn't leave a lot of room for macros and meal prep—and that's exactly why this episode matters. We sit down with Kayla M. to unpack how she built sustainable habits while juggling night shift work, family responsibilities, and a life that rarely goes as planned. With guidance from Coach Kara, Kayla swapped the all-or-nothing mindset for a progress-over-perfection approach: flexible nutrition, compassionate self-talk, and showing up—even when it's messy. You'll hear how she navigates sleep-schedule swings, handles family events without derailing goals, uses coaching for accountability, and models healthy behaviors for her kids. If you're a working mom, shift worker, or anyone stuck waiting for "perfect conditions," Kayla's story is your proof that small steps stack into big change.

This episode is for the leaders, the “strong ones,” and the people who never had the luxury of falling apart. We're talking about what self-forgiveness actually requires when you're still carrying impact in your body—and why it feels terrifying when your identity was built on composure, responsibility, and survival. This is truth work, not comfort talk. If you're ready to stop punishing the person who kept you alive—you belong here.Read the companion post here https://deniseglee.com/forgiving-what-still-hurts/.⸻If this conversation resonated with you, here's how you can support the show and stay connected:✅ Subscribe so you never miss an update.✅ Share this episode with someone who might benefit.✅ Leave a review—your feedback helps others find the show and grow on their journey.⸻Stay Connected with Me!Want to dive deeper?

Hard truth: your kids don't do what you say—they do what you do. In this episode, we unpack how parental behavior shapes children's habits, health, and inner voice. From the food on your plate to the way you talk to yourself, your daily choices become their blueprint. We dive into the ripple effect of parenting, how social media pressure warps expectations, and why personal responsibility beats finger-pointing. You'll learn how to model healthy habits, clean up self-talk so it becomes your child's confidence, and stand firm when critics chirp from the sidelines. This isn't about perfection—it's about leading your home on purpose.

If you're wanting to double your business in 2026, it's going to take looking back at 2025 with a strategic eye.One of our new favorite quotes is: life is lived forward, but it's only understood backwards.Most creatives end the year asking how they feel about their business.Successful creative business owners end the year asking what actually happened.In this episode, we walk through the five questions we personally ask every year to get clarity, stop repeating the same mistakes, and set our business up for real growth.These aren't fluffy mindset prompts. They're practical, sometimes uncomfortable questions that reveal what's actually driving (or holding back) your business, whether you're a photographer, filmmaker, content creator, or social media manager.We cover:Whether your business truly made money - or just kept you busyWhere your revenue actually came from (and what that means for next year)Where your business was proactive vs reactiveIf growth would make your life easier… or completely overwhelm youThe one change that would make 2026 simpler and more profitableFor each question, we break down:Why it mattersWhat most creatives get wrongHow to think about it clearlyOne actionable step you can take immediatelyThe goal of these questions is simple:to slow down long enough to understand what really happened - so you don't accidentally repeat the same year again.If you want to join the 400+ graduates who have made $112M over the last 6 years & who are succeeding at doing what they love, crossing the 6 figure mark and breaking the creative struggle..

Feeling stuck in survival mode—skipping workouts, stress-snacking, sleeping less, and calling it "good enough"? In this fireside chat, we unpack how that bar quietly drops and what to do when "good enough" stops being enough. You'll learn how to spot the red flags, reframe your mindset, and raise your floor with small shifts that actually stick during busy seasons and the holidays. We riff on five everyday arenas where standards slip—and how to course-correct without perfectionism: Food noise vs food joy: enjoy treats on purpose, not by accident The good-enough workout: protect the appointment, adjust the dose Morning light vs winter blues: use light as a free energy reset Stress vs rest at family gatherings: step-out rituals that save your tone Gratitude as a reset: one specific thank-you that changes your day‍ Plus, we show you how to use habit anchors to make consistency automatic and craft a one-line floor statement you can run for the next 7 days.‍ APPLY FOR COACHING: https://www.lvltncoaching.com/1-1-coaching SDE Method app: https://www.lvltncoaching.com/sde-method-app The Fitness League Waiting List https://u3rwk.share.hsforms.com/2rkAwsFntTAeZ__PxwXdr4Q Macros Guide https://www.lvltncoaching.com/free-resources/calculate-your-macros Join the Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/lvltncoaching FREE TOOLS to start your health and fitness journey: https://www.lvltncoaching.com/resources/freebies Alessandra's Instagram: http://instagram.com/alessandrascutnik Joelle's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joellesamantha?igsh=ZnVhZjFjczN0OTdn Josh's Instagram: http://instagram.com/joshscutnik Chapters: 00:00 The Drift into Survival Mode 03:19 Recognizing the Red Flags 09:06 The All-or-Nothing Mentality 12:59 Finding Balance in a Busy Life 16:06 Morning Routines and Alarm Strategies 18:12 Setting Boundaries: Floors and Ceilings in Life 19:10 Food Awareness: Noise vs. Joy 22:19 Adapting Workouts: Embracing Change 23:41 Light Exposure: Combatting Winter Blues 24:39 Navigating Family Gatherings: Stress vs. Rest 25:33 Gratitude as a Daily Reset 26:32 Habit Anchors: Small Changes, Big Impact 29:58 Self-Audit: Recognizing Good Enough 34:43 Small Upgrades for Big Benefits 37:20 Awareness and Action: The Path to Change

In this powerful client spotlight, Daria opens up about her long-game transformation. Navigating a lipedema diagnosis, multiple surgeries, and the mental load that comes with it—while committing to a simple promise: never live above 200 pounds again. We dig into the routines and mindsets that actually stick: consistent training, protein-forward meals, community support, and self-advocacy in a confusing healthcare landscape. Daria also shares her GLP-1 experience for managing food noise, the role of coaching accountability, and how letting go of rigid expectations unlocked real momentum.

This year, I'm taking a new approach to choosing my Word of the Year. After a season filled with alignment, loss, reflection, and God's guidance, I realized our word sometimes needs to evolve with us. In this episode, I'm sharing how I'm choosing my 2026 word using a Primary + Seasonal Word method—and how you can, too. I'll also link to Episode 128 and a Free Tool to help you discover your own word with intention.

Most of us were raised to evaluate ourselves through metrics, outcomes, and improvement curves. But healing doesn't follow performance logic — it follows honesty, gentleness, and self-trust. In this episode, Denise invites listeners to close out the year without grading themselves. No scorecards. No gold stars. Just a quiet, human inventory of how life felt, where clarity emerged, and where old bargains finally fell away. This is a year-end reflection for people who are done performing their way through growth.If this conversation resonated with you, here's how you can support the show and stay connected:✅ Subscribe so you never miss an update.✅ Share this episode with someone who might benefit.✅ Leave a review—your feedback helps others find the show and grow on their journey.⸻Stay Connected with Me!Want to dive deeper?

Why do some people stay consistent while others restart every Monday? In this episode, we break down the research-backed link between identity, routines, and adherence—then make it practical with six aspirational avatars you can adopt today. Choose the identity that fits your season and plug in a matching L5 Method plan across training, nutrition, mindset, movement, and habits so your choices are pre-decided and your follow-through gets easier. We cover how identity-based habits reduce decision fatigue, why implementation intentions ("if X, then I do Y") boost success, and how repetition builds automaticity you can trust on busy days. Then we unveil six done-for-you playbooks: Peak Performer (busy professional) Strong Rebuilder (postpartum) Family Champion (parent in the chaos) Longevity Lifter (40+ healthspan focus) Builder-CEO (founder/operator) Momentum Maker (sustainable fat loss starter) You'll leave with a one-page plan: pick your avatar, run the L5 quick-start protocols, write three if–then plans for your common derailers, and test it for 14 days. Consistent results come from consistent inputs—start by choosing who you are.

In this powerful client interview, Kir opens up about what it's like to feel overwhelmed by life—and still move forward. With guidance from a mentor, Kir learned to slow down, reflect, and recognize real progress, even when it didn't feel obvious day to day. We dig into practical mindset shifts for self-awareness, reflection, and celebrating small wins, plus how support and accountability can fast-track personal growth. You'll hear how Kir reframed "I'm not doing enough" into evidence-based progress, why acknowledging small victories fuels motivation, and simple strategies to spot momentum when life is loud. If you've been grinding without seeing results, this episode will help you zoom out, own your growth, and keep going.

We have all been there. A customer asks a simple question, we give a quick answer that is close enough, and suddenly the entire emotional temperature of the conversation drops. Their confidence dips. Their posture changes. And without realizing it, we have sprung a trust leak.   In this episode, we explore the subtle ways consultants accidentally drain customer confidence, why those moments matter so much, and how to repair trust before the deal slips away.   You will learn: • The early-career mistake that taught me how fragile trust really is • Why vague answers, hedged tone, and “small guesses” hurt CX more than pressure ever could • The emotional science behind trust erosion • How to plug leaks using clarity, tone discipline, and predictable phrasing • Simple fixes you can use on your next up   If your conversations ever feel like they slide in the wrong direction without warning, this episode will hit home.    Free Tool of the Week: Trust Leak Detector  I created a one-page tool that helps consultants identify the three most common leak points and rebuild confidence fast.   Download it here:

Fear Free Certification for taking the 'pet' out of 'petrified'. Get 10% off the with promo code PSC10. What does it really mean to be Fear Free certified as a pet sitter or dog walker? In this episode, Collin talks with Melissa Spooner-Raymond, a licensed veterinary technician and veterinary behavior specialist with Fear Free, about practical ways to reduce fear, anxiety, and stress for pets in our care. They explore reading body language, setting realistic goals for each visit, and using "the three Fs"—food, fun, and favorites—to create positive associations. Melissa shares real-world scenarios, from cautious chows to under-socialized COVID pets, offering strategies for short visits and multi-staff teams. The conversation highlights how consistency, documentation, and collaboration with the pet's wider care team can transform both the pet's experience and the sitter's safety. Main topics: Reading and respecting pet body language Applying the "three Fs" to build trust Strategies for short, time-limited visits Multi-staff consistency and SOPs Collaborating with the pet's full care team Main takeaway: "Stop and assess and watch—what is that animal trying to communicate?" So often, our love for animals makes us want to rush in, but the best care starts with observation. Every ear twitch, tail flick, or subtle shift tells a story about how that pet is feeling. When we slow down, we can adapt our approach to meet them where they are—turning fear into trust. As pet sitters and dog walkers, we aren't just completing a task; we're building a relationship, one respectful moment at a time. About our guest: Melissa is a passionate and skilled professional with a rich background in the animal care industry. Her experience spans general veterinary medicine, behavioral specialty medicine, and nonprofit organizations, where she has held a variety of roles supporting pets and their people. She holds an Associate of Applied Animal Science and is a Veterinary Technician Specialist in Behavior, a Certified Training Partner through Karen Pryor Academy, an Elite Fear Free Certified Veterinary Professional, and a TAGteach Certified Practitioner. Driven by a deep commitment to making a difference, Melissa strives to create meaningful, positive impacts for animals and their human companions through education and advocacy in veterinary behavior and training.

Most high-functioning adults don't recognize the moment when their body stops pushing and starts decomposing years of pressure. Rest feels suspicious. Guilt kicks in. Identity gets shaky. And instead of honoring the pause, we label it “laziness.” In this episode, Denise breaks down why decompression feels wrong, how cultural and family patterns make rest emotionally dangerous, how to handle people who get inconvenienced by your boundaries, and how to recognize when your rest is truly complete.Stay Connected with Me!Want to dive deeper?

If your progress has flatlined and you're tempted to scrap your program, hit pause. In this episode, we show you how to diagnose a training or fat-loss plateau and make one targeted adjustment that gets momentum back fast—no overhaul required. You'll get a simple plateau audit (food, sleep, stress, intensity, movement), a tweak vs. trust decision tool so you know when to adjust and when to ride it out, and tiny changes that create big shifts in 7–14 days—like smarter carb timing, a single back-off set, or adding 1,000 steps to your daily average. Perfect for busy lifters, runners, and parents who want progress without burning down what's already working.

If you've ever wondered why PCOS feels so confusing, why the symptoms don't line up, why the advice is contradictory, why the solutions feel like guesswork, you're not imagining it. That's exactly why I brought back Julie Duffy Dillon, registered dietitian, author, and host of Find Your Food Voice, to cut through the noise. Julie has a rare way of talking about PCOS that immediately makes your shoulders drop: it's science-based, deeply compassionate, and totally free of judgment or quick fixes.  Tweetable Quotes " So many people are led to believe that it's just a problem with their ovaries, but really, PCOS is an endocrine disorder that starts in the brain, not in the ovaries. It's something that someone's born with and they're, they die with it too." - Julie Duffy Dillon "We don't have a lot of research. Doctors don't always have the answers, and there's a lot of weight bias in there, too. And unfortunately, most people just know about the reproductive interventions. They don't know about all the other ones." - Julie Duffy Dillon "I do feel like with PCOS, you have to advocate for yourself more. It's annoying." - Julie Duffy Dillon "PCOS is the number one cause of anovulatory infertility." - Julie Duffy Dillon " If you're eating enough with PCOS, adding movement is something that can really help with your insulin levels. But if you are someone who's painfully tired or your insulin levels are really high, so you have these cravings all the time, adding exercise or movement is just gonna make things worse." - Julie Duffy Dillon Resources Julie's Website: https://julieduffydillon.com/ Free Tools: https://julieduffydillon.com/voice/ Julie's Podcast: https://julieduffydillon.com/podcast/ Book: https://julieduffydillon.com/book/ Book bonus downloads: https://findyourfoodvoicebook.com PCOS Membership: https://julieduffydillon.com/pcos-power-course/ Bergen Mental Health Group Inc. is hiring!

Gratitude isn't fluff—it's a neural training tool. In this episode, we break down how a simple daily gratitude practice drives neuroplasticity (neural elasticity) to calm your nervous system and sharpen your mind. You'll learn how gratitude strengthens the prefrontal cortex, softens the amygdala's alarm, improves memory recall via the hippocampus, and reduces rumination in the Default Mode Network—with real-world benefits like lower cortisol, better HRV, deeper sleep, and steadier mood. We walk you through a 10-minute protocol you can start tonight (breath, specific recall, short journaling, optional message to someone you appreciate), plus easy anchors to make it stick. Expect practical demos, measurable ways to track progress over 14 days, and simple cues to deploy "appreciation on demand" when stress hits.
