Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
When relationships start feeling easier, many high performers feel confused instead of relieved. This episode explores why ease is not a loss of depth, but a signal of identity-level alignment and nervous system safety returning.There is a particular kind of relief that doesn't come from fixing anything.It comes from effort easing.From not managing.From showing up without explaining.From realizing that connection can remain even when you stop carrying it.And for high-capacity humans who are used to pressure, responsibility, and emotional attentiveness, that ease can feel unsettling. Almost suspicious. As if something important has been missed.In this episode of The Recalibration, we explore why certain friendships begin to feel lighter after identity-level recalibration — not because people changed, but because roles loosened.This is not about replacing relationships or drawing conclusions.It's about recognizing how alignment shows up in the body.When effort decreases and connection remains, the nervous system registers safety.When pauses no longer feel dangerous, regulation deepens.When presence replaces monitoring, clarity begins to emerge without urgency.Many people mistake ease for complacency.But in reality, ease is one of the clearest signals of alignment.This episode continues Season 4's relational arc by focusing on renewed momentum — not momentum driven by effort, but movement that arises naturally when misalignment releases. It reflects the core of Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR): not another mindset tool or productivity strategy, but the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective by realigning who you are, not just what you do.Rather than instruction, this episode offers orientation.Rather than resolution, it offers recognition.Rather than urgency, it offers companionship.You're not becoming less relational.You're becoming more honest about how connection actually feels.Today's Micro Recalibration:Where am I noticing more ease in my relationships — without trying to explain it, protect it, or make it mean something?Let that noticing be enough.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Love is in the air as Valentine's Day approaches, but while Sarah and Amy are navigating a new romantic milestone, Susie is mostly just finding the whole shift deeply annoying. The duo dives into the social dynamics of the season by dissecting the functional differences between friendship and community, exploring why we need both even if they serve wildly different purposes in our lives. The conversation takes a sharp turn into "fitness cults" as Sarah realizes her old workout routine was less about health and more about a non-religious devotion to a gym leader, before pivoting to a bizarre news story involving a WWI artillery shell and a very delicate emergency room extraction. Naturally, this leads to a candid and hilarious debate over the 69 position; Sarah maintains it is an overrated logistical nightmare, but after Susie's passionate defense, the pair concludes that Sarah's distaste is likely just a result of poor execution.00:00 - New Relationship Dynamics and Valentine's Day Expectations10:19 - Understanding the Different Needs of Friendship and Community16:44 - Film Students and the Decline of Attention Spans24:41 - Manage Your Money and Cancel Subscriptions with Rocket Money26:46 - The Problem with Grading on a Curve in Academia30:47 - A Bizarre Emergency Room Visit: Unexploded Artillery Shell42:07 - Amplify Your Everyday with Thrive Cosmetics and Community Support44:56 - Sarah and Susie Debate the Logistics of the 69 Position49:57 - Experiencing Awe: Aquanauts and the Underwater Overview Effect54:16 - Why Public Dancing is Disappearing and Overcoming EmbarrassmentBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Let Rocket Money help you reach your financial goals faster.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High-performing professionals often feel exhausted managing friendships without knowing why. This episode explores how stopping over-functioning restores presence, belonging, and nervous system safety — without explanation, conflict, or loss.High-performing, capable people don't usually feel drained by conflict in friendships.They feel drained by management.By reading the room.Anticipating needs.Explaining shifts.Making sure everyone is okay with how they're showing up.In this episode of The Recalibration, we explore what happens when you stop managing friendships — not by pulling away, but by allowing alignment to settle quietly in the body.Many high-capacity humans mistake regulation for withdrawal at first. When effort decreases and calm emerges, the nervous system may wonder: Am I disengaging… or am I finally present? This episode gently reframes that tension, naming how regulated presence often feels smaller, simpler, and more ordinary than expected.Drawing on identity-level work, nervous system awareness, and story-shaped relational patterns, this conversation explores why familiarity is not the same as truth — and how belonging does not disappear when effort decreases.This is not mindset work.It's not behavior correction.It's Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) — the root-level realignment that makes every other tool effective again. When identity precedes behavior, relationships begin to feel steadier without force, explanation, or performance.For listeners shaped by early environments that rewarded attentiveness, emotional responsibility, or stability, this episode offers permission to practice alignment without commentary — trusting that safety grows through consistency, not intensity.Today's Micro Recalibration“Where can I show up with a little less monitoring — and a little more presence?”Not to withdraw.Not to disengage.Just to stay.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Trudge Report. This week we go around the horn and Dan shares his experience with his son over the weekend at Madison square garden for the UConn v St John's game. Greg gives us an update on wedding planning and Corey tells us how his new job is going and how he has finally gotten back into writing and playing music. Danny wins the rental car lottery, or at least so we think. The recovery segment is all about beginning to make a list of people we have hurt. We shift from identifying the resentments, fears, and harms done, to actually beginning to put together a plan of action on how we can attempt to make these situations right and clean up our side of the street. We get honest about the ones we dread, the ones we delay, and the moments where doing the right thing might come with real consequences. Freedom may cost something initially but holding on to these is more expensive in the long run. Intelligence is humility. - Lionel Shriver -Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

and an inner voice teased, "What if you fail?"Da: Dagen gik, og sneen udenfor blev kun tykkere.En: The day passed, and the snow outside only grew thicker.Da: Kulden gik gennem markhospitalets tynde vægge, men Erik lagde ikke mærke til kulden.En: The cold seeped through the thin walls of the field hospital, but Erik didn't notice the cold.Da: Det var bare ét af de mange distraktioner.En: It was

bryst.En: Erik smiled, a warm, relieved feeling spreading in his chest.Da: "Det gik godt," sagde han med overbevisning.En: "It went well," he said with conviction.Da: "Tak for jeres hjælp."En: "Thanks

softly, forming a thick white blanket over the hills.Hu: Egy nagy, fehér sátor állt a havas táj közepén, ahol egy terepi kórház várta az iskolás csoportokat.En: A large, white tent stood in the middle of the snowy landscape, where a field hospital awaited school groups.Hu: Diákok áramlottak be, csizmájuk alatt nyikorogva a hó, miközben izgatottan suttogtak az új élmény miatt.En: Students streamed in, the snow creaking under their boots as they whispered excitedly about the new experience.Hu: Reka és Laszlo is ott voltak köztük.En: Reka and Laszlo were among them.Hu: Reka mindig is egy orvosi karrierről álmodott, ezért izgatottan forgatta fejét körbe-körbe, hogy mindent lásson.En: Reka had always dreamed of a medical career, so she eagerly turned her head around to see everything.Hu: Laszlo, legjobb barátja, azonban kevésbé lelkesedett a kórházi környezetért.En: Laszlo, her best friend, however, was less enthusiastic about the hospital environment.Hu: Egy régi családi betegség miatt tartózkodóbb volt.En: Due to a past family illness, he was more reserved.Hu: Ahogy beléptek a sátorba, Reka szeme csillogott az érdeklődéstől.En: As they entered the tent, Reka's eyes shone with curiosity.Hu: Az ágyakon betegek feküdtek, a padlót orvosi eszközök borították.En: Patients lay in the beds, and the floor was covered with medical instruments.Hu: Az orvos, aki fogadta őket, határozott és megnyugtató hangon magyarázott mindenről, amit látni fognak.En: The doctor who welcomed them explained everything they would see in a firm and reassuring voice.Hu: "Ez egy csodás lehetőség," mondta Reka Laszlonak, aki összefont karokkal állt mellette.En: "This is a wonderful opportunity," Reka said to Laszlo, who was standing beside her with crossed arms.Hu: "Képzeld el, mennyit tanulhatok!En: "Imagine how much I can learn!"Hu: "Laszlo sóhajtott.En: Laszlo sighed.Hu: "Tudom, hogy téged ez érdekel, de számomra a kórházak csak a betegségről szólnak.En: "I know you're interested in this, but for me, hospitals are just about illness."Hu: "Reka hallgatta, ami Laszlot zavarta.En: Reka listened to what troubled Laszlo.Hu: Tudta, hogy el kellene mondania, miért ilyen negatív, de nem akarta megsérteni a hangulatot.En: She knew he should tell her why he felt so negative, but she didn't want to ruin the mood.Hu: Aztán döntést hozott.En: Then she made a decision.Hu: Délután, amikor a nap sugarai elhalványultak a havas tájon, Reka a mező szélén Laszlo elé állt.En: In the afternoon, as the sun's rays faded over the snowy landscape, Reka stood before Laszlo at the edge of the field.Hu: "Laszlo, meg kell értenem, hogy miért érzed így," kezdte bátortalanul, felló nézve a fiatalember szemébe.En: "Laszlo, I need to understand why you feel this way," she began tentatively, looking into the young man's eyes.Hu: "Ez a nap fontos nekem, és szeretném, ha velem együtt élveznéd.En: "This day is important to me, and I'd love for you to enjoy it with me."Hu: "Laszlo sóhajtott, majd elmondta a családjában történt dolgot.En: Laszlo sighed, then shared what had happened in his family.Hu: Reka bólintott, szavakat keresett, amelyek megnyugtatnák Laszlot.En: Reka nodded, searching for words to comfort Laszlo.Hu: "Tudod, az orvosok segítenek," mondta halkan.En: "You know, doctors help," she said softly.Hu: "Segíthetünk másokon, és talán jobban is fogod látni ezt, ha megpróbálod.En: "We can help others, and maybe you'll see this better if you try."Hu: "Laszlo egy pillanatra csendben maradt.En: Laszlo was silent for a moment.Hu: Majd bólintott.En: Then he nodded.Hu: "Igazad van.En: "You're right.Hu: Nem vagyok tisztességes veled.En: I'm not being fair to you."Hu: "Másnap, Valentin-napon, Reka szíve a torkában dobogott.En: The next day, on Valentine's Day, Reka's heart pounded in her chest.Hu: Az orvos ismét fogadott mindenkit, és Reka eldöntötte, hogy bátor lesz.En: The doctor once again welcomed everyone, and Reka decided to be brave.Hu: Még a látogató doktor elé állt, és kérdésekkel kezdte bombardálni.En: She even went up to the visiting doctor and began bombarding him with questions.Hu: Minden válasz csak még inkább növelte vágyát a tudásra és a segítségnyújtásra.En: Every answer only increased her desire for knowledge and to help others.Hu: Laszlo eközben háttérbe húzódott, hallgatta Reka lelkesedését, szívverése lassan megnyugodott.En: Meanwhile, Laszlo stayed in the background, listening to Reka's enthusiasm, his heartbeat slowly calming down.Hu: Valami változott benne.En: Something changed in him.Hu: Látta barátja szenvedélyét és eltökéltségét, és ettől jobban megértette, mit is jelent az orvosi hivatás.En: He saw his friend's passion and determination, and it helped him better understand what the medical profession truly means.Hu: Ahogy véget ért a nap, Laszlo odalépett Rekához.En: As the day came to an end, Laszlo approached Reka.Hu: "Sajnálom, hogy eddig ellene voltam," mondta.En: "I'm sorry for being against it until now," he said.Hu: "Támogatni foglak, ahogy csak tudlak.En: "I will support you as best as I can."Hu: "Reka elmosolyodott.En: Reka smiled.Hu: "Köszönöm," válaszolta.En: "Thank you," she replied.Hu: "Ez nagyon sokat jelent nekem.En: "That means a lot to me."Hu: "A két barát a hóban indul hazafelé.En: The two friends headed home through the snow.Hu: A világ talán hideg volt és kemény, de mindketten valami meleget találtak a szívük mélyén: az igaz barátság erejét és a jövőben rejlő lehetőségeket.En: The world might have been cold and harsh, but they both found something warm deep down in their hearts: the strength of true friendship and the possibilities that the future held.

Britney Spears just secured a reported $200 million for her music catalog and somehow we're still arguing about who has the better investment strategy — her or Justin Bieber. In this episode of The Rizzuto Show, we break down pop star bank accounts like we're certified financial advisors (we are not), debate whose catalog is actually worth more, and pitch the revolutionary idea of putting $200 million into a CD and just vibing off the interest forever.Then we hit you with a study that claims your average commute is worth over $8,000 a year. That's right — the time you spend sitting in traffic listening to this comedy podcast technically has a dollar amount. So congratulations, your daily entertainment comes with emotional support and questionable financial implications. We do the math, question our life choices, and decide that at least you're spending those 222 hours a year with a funny podcast that doesn't charge admission.But the crown jewel of today's chaos? A fresh round of Gay Bar or Steakhouse — the most deceptively impossible game in morning talk show history. Establishments like “The Blazing Saddle,” “Wolf Lodge,” and “Silverado” have us second-guessing geography, masculinity, and common sense. Lifelines are used. Friendships are tested. Logic is abandoned. Somehow we end with a winner, but not before Moon spirals about Portland and we collectively admit this is the hardest 50/50 shot in radio.We also dive into some serious local news out of St. Louis, including a disturbing Starbucks drive-thru shooting and a substitute teacher situation in St. Charles that proves reality continues to outdo satire. Because nothing balances celebrity news and daily humor quite like real-world chaos.If you're here for pop culture commentary, entertainment gossip, weird news stories, sarcastic humor, and a daily comedy show that doesn't take itself too seriously — welcome home. This comedy podcast is your daily reminder that the world is ridiculous and at least we can laugh at it together.New episodes drop every weekday because apparently we enjoy the chaos.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

High performers often feel role confusion and relational burnout when friendships lack mutuality. This episode explores desire without guilt through Identity-Level Recalibration—so wanting more doesn't threaten belonging.Many high-capacity humans don't struggle with a lack of friends — they struggle with wanting more mutuality without knowing if they're allowed to.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores what happens after release, when pressure eases and desire quietly returns. Not as entitlement. Not as dissatisfaction. But as truth.This conversation is for high performers who:feel relational fatigue without conflictexperience guilt when wanting more reciprocityconfuse relief with selfishnesscarry success, responsibility, and steadiness — yet feel spiritually or emotionally tiredDrawing on story-informed psychology and nervous-system awareness — influenced by the work of Dan Allender and Adam Young — Julie shows how early family roles shape our understanding of belonging, loyalty, and connection.Rather than offering mindset reframes or communication strategies, this episode introduces Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) — not another mindset tactic, but the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective. ILR helps listeners trust desire without urgency, reclaim identity truth without self-betrayal, and remain connected without carrying the relationship alone.Explore themes including:burnout recovery without collapsedecision fatigue in relationshipsrole confusion beneath competencesuccess without fulfillmentspiritual exhaustion tied to performanceidentity drift masked as gratitudeJulie reframes mutuality not as dissatisfaction, but as maturity — and reminds listeners that wanting more does not obligate change, nor does it threaten belonging.This episode gently restores trust in desire as information, not accusation.Today's Micro Recalibration:What do I find myself wanting more of in friendship — without judging it?Not to act on it.Not to explain it.Just to name it.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Community is being redefined at a moment when burnout, isolation, and constant productivity are leaving many women disconnected from themselves and each other. In this episode, Kara Duffy sits down with Porsha Ellis, CEO of Let It Break, to explore why women are craving deeper, more intentional spaces, and how community can become a catalyst for personal growth, wellness, and meaningful change. Porsha shares her journey from building creative agencies to leading a women-centered community rooted in self-awareness, service, and care.

As Valentine's Day approaches, this episode offers a reminder that love doesn't only live in romance — it also lives in friendship, shared purpose, and meaningful connection. In this conversation, Yvonne sits down with Gail Zelitsky and Catherine Marienau, co-hosts of the podcast, Women Over 70: Aging Reimagined, to talk about how a friendship formed later in life grew into a powerful creative partnership. Gail and Catherine share their individual paths — from unexpected reinvention and advocacy work to mentoring women returning to school later in life — and how their shared values eventually led them to build a platform amplifying the voices of women in their 70s, 80s, and beyond. Together, they explore what it means to form deep friendships later in life, why collaboration looks different as we age, and how purpose and possibility don't disappear with time — they often deepen. This episode is part 2 of a series highlighting women who found friendship later in life and turned it into something meaningful. Gail and Catherine aren't just talking about what's possible after 70 — they're living it.

This week on Laugh Lines, Penn and I talk about something that sneaks up on a lot of us in midlife: friendship, purpose, and the quiet fear of wondering if we still matter the way we used to. We're joined by New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Wallace (straight from Oprah to Laugh Lines!) who explores why feeling seen, needed, and valued isn't just nice... it's essential to our well-being. The three of us dig into what “mattering” really means, why so many adults feel lonelier than they expected, and how friendships change when kids leave home, careers shift, and life gets a little more complicated.We've all been guilty of flaking on plans or feeling like if a kind gesture wasn't "perfect" we shouldn't do it. But the truth is, showing up messy and not canceling plans might be the most powerful relationship tools we have. Jennifer shares practical, doable ways to deepen friendships and how small moments of connection often mean more than big gestures.If you've ever missed someone you haven't called, felt unsure of your place in this season of life, or wanted to be a better friend but didn't know where to start, this conversation is for you. It's a good reminder that connection doesn't have to be perfect to be meaningful. (And if you're listening and wondering if you matter, you do.) We love to hear from you!

Will called in to Talk To Me about his journey through deep betrayal by his best friend – someone he never imagined would hurt him. How do you walk through this kind of betrayal, when you've been completely blindsided?
