Podcasts about Frustration

Gary and Selena drift through everyday chaos, aging, intimacy, and irritation as a casual conversation about colors turns into reflections on turning forty, gift expectations, and the strange emotional weight attached to birthdays. They talk massages, tipping anxiety, overpriced upgrades, sore feet, and the disappointment of hot stone add-ons that miss the point. Domestic tension bubbles up through broken heirlooms, cats causing destruction, and disagreements about emotional reactions, overreacting, and what it means to feel heard during conflict.The conversation slides into awkward neighborhood encounters, paranoia about being overheard, public embarrassment, and how small moments spiral into resentment. Gary and Selena unpack bickering, criticism, Reddit reactions, and the thin line between honest conversation and uncomfortable listening. Travel stress enters the mix with airline seating changes, gate checking chaos, lost seats, and feeling powerless while following instructions. The episode winds through bugs, grasshoppers, bodily discomfort, television fatigue, relationship negotiations, and the quiet realization that everyday life feels louder, messier, and harder to smooth out than expected.

We have made it to Friday which means we are dealing with the NBA trade deadline hangover. Tobin is still very much not over the Heat not making any moves yesterday, and questions what the direction this team is moving forward. The gang dips their toes in the Super Bowl pool, as they all feel like the Patriots are going to get boat raised by the Seahawks. We finish up this hour with 15 min of Heat, and Tobin and Leroy declare Giannis a phony!

BOSSes host Anne Ganguzza is joined by co-host Lau Lapides and special guest Carol Alpert (voice actor and on-camera coach) to tackle the industry's most persistent headache: the inability of talent to follow instructions. Whether it's ignoring age ranges in casting specs, butchering file naming, or losing patience during a live session, failing to follow the "rules" of an audition is the fastest way to get your file tossed. The hosts stress that being a "trained actor" means being disciplined enough to read between the lines and respect the client's process. The Casting Filter: Why 70% Get Ditched (01:48) Lau Lapides reveals a shocking statistic: in a recent casting for 35–45 year olds, 70% of the auditions were from talent clearly outside that age range. Agents use specs to filter talent quickly; if you submit for a role you clearly don't fit, you are essentially asking to be ignored. Following the demographic specs is the first step in following directions in voiceover. The File Naming Pet Peeve (07:04) Proper file naming is not just a suggestion; it's a structural necessity. When an agent or casting assistant is processing hundreds of files, an incorrectly named file can disrupt their entire workflow. Lau notes that talent often doesn't see the "assembly line" of 10–40 people involved in a single gig; naming your file correctly shows you respect their time. "Early is On Time": The Reality of Deadlines (11:12) While some pay-to-play sites are instantaneous, agency turnarounds are often measured in hours. Lau asserts that the strongest auditions usually come in within the first few hours of a posting. Being "trained" means having the discipline to interpret, record, and execute an audition professionally and quickly without procrastinating. Cold Reading and Tracking Skills (13:05) A common reason talent fail to follow directions is a lack of ocular tracking skills. Many people listen to content rather than reading it, leading to a decline in the ability to scan a script and pick up nuances quickly. The hosts recommend cold-reading classes to ensure your eyes can track words and directions simultaneously. Live Direction: Active Listening and Communication (31:09) During a live directed session, following instructions becomes a matter of active listening. Lau recommends repeating directions back to the client to ensure clarity. She also warns that talent are often replaced not because of their voice, but because of a poor attitude or lack of patience when being redirected. The "Relationship" Slope: Business vs. Contract (41:23) While it's important to stick to contracts, the hosts discuss the value of being cooperative. Doing an extra tag or a small favor can "earn" you a client for the next ten years. It's about weighing small battles versus the long-term war of building a sustainable career through professional relationships.   Top 10 Takeaways for Voice Actors: Read the Specs Twice: Ensure you fit the age, gender, and ethnicity requirements before stepping into the booth. Master File Naming: Follow the naming convention provided exactly. It is the most common reason auditions are discarded without being heard. Early is Best: While you should never rush quality, aim to submit your audition as early as possible to capture the agent's attention. Practice Cold Reading: Maintain your ocular tracking skills by reading aloud for at least 15 minutes a day to stay sharp for quick turnarounds. Listen and Repeat: In directed sessions, repeat the client's instructions back to them to confirm you understand the requested adjustment. Silence Your Ego: If a client asks for 100 takes, provide them professionally. Frustration or an "attitude" is a faster way to get fired than a bad take. Check Your Tech: Before a live session, verify that SourceConnect and your DAW are updated and functioning. Technical failures are a failure to follow prep instructions. The Agent is the Middleman: Don't get annoyed if your agent doesn't have every answer; they copy and paste exactly what the client gives them. Interpret, Don't Just Comprehend: Moving beyond just "reading the words" to understanding the story is part of your professional instruction. Build the Relationship: Being cooperative and "easy to work with" is often more valuable to a client than being the most talented person in the room.

Transcript  Welcome to The Art of Living Big, where we explore how to live intentionally and with more joy. I’m Betsy Pake, your host, master, coach, and creator of the Navigate Method. Here to help you listen in to your true desires, elevate your standards, and live life to the fullest. Now, let’s go live big. Hi everyone. Welcome to the Art of Living Big. If you’re new here, welcome. I haven’t posted in the last couple weeks. It’s been really, really busy here, and , I had to prioritize self-care, I think in all of this. You know right now if you live in the United States, you might be feeling what I’m feeling, which is just a lot of heaviness and I think confusion and grief and overwhelm, and , it feels like, how could this be real? What’s happening? Ugh. It’s really heavy. And so if that’s where you are, that’s where I’ve been to. And so I decided certain things were just gonna. Go on hold. And I think that’s okay as we get our bearings. And I needed to put the things that were most important. You know, our clients put them first and have space and energy for them, and I think I’ve been really successful in doing that, but it made me not overhear on the podcast. So I’m excited to be back today and to have some space to be able to talk with you. , Over on Instagram, I’ve been getting just so many messages about the videos that we’ve been doing over there, and I think that sometimes it can be really helpful to have words to understand. What we are feeling in our body. , I don’t think I’m saying anything over there that people haven’t felt, but they just didn’t know how to dissect it or how to translate it maybe into language. And so , I’m pleased that I’m able to do that over there. And so today I wanted to talk about something and I think it’s something that happens inside relationships. , Typically when they’re ending, and this doesn’t just have to mean a romantic relationship, I think it can mean a lot of relationships. , I’m noticing it right now in several of my relationships, and it’s not a bad thing. It just is a thing. And I think that if we are feeling it, likely the other person is feeling it, to some , extent too. So it’s not like when you’re fighting, I’m thinking about the relationships I have that are ., I call it like closing the loop. It’s just, there’s no big disagreement or marker that says like, this is no longer working. It’s just sort of deflation. That’s how it feels to me. I was thinking the other day, I had an interaction with somebody and I was like, you know what?, I’m done showing up when the other person isn’t showing up. . It’s like they reach out ’cause they want connection, but , they’re not actually available to show up and do the work of being in relationship. You know, whether it’s a friendship or a romantic relationship or anything. I don’t think it matters. But I noticed this the other day and I was like, you know what? No hard feelings. I’m not mad., I just don’t feel anything. It feels like a deflated balloon. And in some aspects I think this can be a. , Relieving feeling. , It’s this feeling of like, why am I even here? , , why am I putting any energy into this at all? What’s the point of the interaction? And so I wanna talk about that moment a little bit today because it is information, , and as we move forward and make decisions about our life and what’s right for us and what’s not right for us. Every piece of interaction or feeling or acknowledgement is information, and that helps us to have discernment so that we know how we want to move forward. A couple years ago. I was at an Abraham Hicks event, a live event, if you are familiar with Abraham Hicks. If you’re not, you can go just search through my podcasts. And I did a couple episodes describing what this is, but I went and saw Abraham Hicks. I think this is where I heard this it, or it was right around that time that I heard this on one of the many recordings of Abraham Hicks that you can find on YouTube. And what they said was, when you’re in a relationship. You are not, and of course Abraham Hicks said this much more eloquently than I’m going to. But it’s not just a relationship with the two of you. Like you think you’re in a room with the person you’re in a relationship with, and it’s you and them, but really it’s about you and your higher self, your inner knower. , That’s who you have to have the relationship with. You have to be so clear on who you are and what you want and what you stand for and all of those things. And they do too. And when you do that, it becomes clear if there is a relationship here at all. Otherwise you just become disinterested. And I remember that component of it is like, it’s not that you’re mad or sad or glad or whatever. There’s like a disinterested. The other night when I experienced this, I was like, this is what this is. It’s a deflation. It is. I’m so aligned with my inner knower that , being even in the room with the other, , it’s like you don’t want anything bad for them. You just are done putting any energy there at all. And I think that many times when we are frustrated. With somebody and we’re in a relationship. And when I say relationship, I’m gonna keep saying this. It could be friendship. So it could be friendship, it could be, , romantic relationship, right? But when there is frustration, right? When you’re like, oh my God, will you just listen to me? Or why don’t they see it the way I see it? All of that, when you’re frustrated, frustration, I think still has hope, like frustration carries an element. Of activation, right? Where you’re explaining or hoping or trying to be understood. , Frustration says , maybe if I say this differently or if I try one more time, or if I show up a little bit differently, like they’ll finally get it. They’ll finally get my perspective. And honestly, I may be wrong, but I know for myself, I don’t need somebody to agree with me. I really don’t, but I need them to step forward to try to understand my perspective. And if I don’t get, that’s where the disconnect is. It’s not when they’re just trying to convince me that I’m wrong. There’s frustration in that for me because there is still hope that they will step forward , and meet me where I’m at. Deflation I think is totally different. , I think happens when our nervous system just says, you know what, there is nothing left here to work with. , There’s nothing, there’s no charge. There’s no activation, there’s no fighting. There’s just a, like a disinterest. Going back to what Abraham Hicks says, you’ll just be like, I’m just not interested. , I just don’t care. And that is when your body says, oh, like this is totally empty. And I think that deflation happens a lot in relationships where there isn’t a lot of harm. And I’m gonna explain what I mean. I think that deflation can’t happen when there’s a lot of activation, when there’s a lot of harm, when there’s a lot of feeling of , I need you to see me and you’re not seeing me. I don’t think deflation can happen in that environment. I don’t think it happens when there’s yelling or, , obvious emotional abuse or anything like that. I think it is really subtle, and this is how come, I think sometimes we see this a lot in friendships because they’re less charged. So like when things just kind of fizzle out. And so I think , the shift here is when one person is speaking from something that is, I’m gonna say like important or meaningful to them, like it has meaning and the other person responds with. Really surfacey or a subject change or logistics, , it’s nothing hostile. , It’s not that person like shaming or blaming or fighting. None of it is loud, but nothing actually meets what was said and over time. This takes a lot of time, I think, but over time our nervous system starts to track this pattern. Like I speak, I, share something, right? Which that is relationship I share and I am met. So I share something and it’s just , goes nowhere, right? Like it just gets overstepped or bypassed or whatever, and eventually your nervous system stops. Reaching, it stops reaching for connection with that person because what you’re getting, your nervous system registers is not okay or not really holding any kind of attention. I think that is when deflation happens and when that happens, I think it can be really confusing. And again, I see this a lot with friendships because there’s not the same. I’m gonna say it this way. , There is an opportunity for that there to not have the same emotional charge. Sometimes there is, especially if you’ve had a friend for a long, long time. But most people have been taught that relationships end because of a conflict, like somebody did something wrong or there was a line that was crossed or something really dramatic happened. But I think deflation happens. When your nervous system is just so tired of not being met, that it just disengages and loses interest, and then the person starts thinking like, why am I even here? It’s not anger or contempt or any of those things. I think it’s a level of clarity. It’s really a realization, right, that this person is seeking. Connection without meeting me in a relationship. So the good news about all of , this is really a moment, I think, where boundaries become possible. And it doesn’t have to be some dramatic boundary. It doesn’t even have to be verbalized if you don’t want. It’s not a big confrontation. It is just a line in the sand that says, I’m done explaining. I’m done stepping up to meet you in a fault. Pretense of relationship and bonding. I am gonna make a decision to stop responding. It’s not that I want anything bad for you, it is just a level of alignment. And , I talked about discernment, it being a level of discernment, but going back to what? Abraham Hicks was saying, I think this really applies. It is this moment where you’re so aligned with who you are and what you want and what you stand for, and how you wanna be treated. That when someone can’t meet you there, you’re not mad. You just don’t care anymore. So this is the part that I want you to hear. If you feel like you’re getting to that place with somebody, it doesn’t mean that you’re cruel. You decide to disengage if you leave, because you no longer want to have to disappear to some extent in order to stay connected to that person. That is your nervous system taking really good care of you. Is your nervous system noticing when there’s a misalignment, and that is your nervous system actually becoming regulated around. Being without that presence. And so, , in my Instagram videos, I always do a north star, like something to ask yourself. So here’s a North Star in this. Or , just some thoughts to mull over it is if you’re thinking about somebody that you’re like, am I at that place? And honestly, if you’re thinking, am I at that place? You probably are. But when, here’s the question is, when was the last time. You felt deflated instead of frustrated. And I hear this all the time from women too, where they’re like, I’m in this marriage and , I just am at the place where I just don’t care. Like I don’t even wanna fight. I’ve just checked out. Very similar. I think true deflation comes when your nervous system’s totally regulated by being alone, , without that in your system. And then. That comes injected back into your system and you go, oh, this feels really unaligned. I think you’re right on the cusp of being like, what? I’m categorizing as deflated when you’re still in relationship, like deep in relationship. , Okay, here’s another question is after you interact with this person, do you feel expanded? , Do you feel seen and happy and engaged, or do you feel like, why does something feel off or empty? And here’s the tricky one. If you still feel hope that they’re going to meet you, you’re likely not in deflation yet. If they do not meet you and you’re not surprised at all, and you just feel like, eh, I didn’t even really expect it there, there’s your signal in deflation. So there’s no right answer in this, and I think. Relationships. When we think about, , from the womb to the tomb of relationships, you can be in any place, in any type of relationship. And when you get towards the end of that place where you feel like you’ve truly moved on, I think that’s when you feel the deflation. I think that’s when you’re like, you know what? I hope the best for you. I really do. And. My attention and energy is gonna go somewhere else. So I don’t think of deflation as failure. , I should do a whole show on this ’cause people comment sometimes on my posts on Instagram and ask about your vows. Don’t you care about your vows? And I have so many thoughts about this because. If you decide to leave a marriage because you’re being ignored, for example, your vows were broken long ago, like nobody signed up, nobody took vows to stay even while being completely ignored and, you know, avoided for weeks like the vows were broken. So I could do a whole show on that. But I think when we look about, think about this. It is sometimes the closure of relationships. , I will say all the time, this is how I feel. You can determine how you feel. The closure of relationships isn’t failure, it’s a completion. I think we come in contact with people for really short periods of time or long periods of time to help us get to the next level, to help us each grow in different ways and. Part of that growth continues on as the relationship ends or disintegrates or deflates. I think it is a marker, but I also think you know that anytime you’re in a relationship, there’s more than one of you. And so sometimes having things come to a close for you is the beginning of someone else’s journey of reflection and really. Moving through things, and if we can stop trying to be responsible for other people’s reactions and instead stay really true and honest to our path and what’s most aligned for us, then we can show up or choose to withdraw our attention and energy in the places where it’s really right and likely right for both parties. And sometimes I think the most self-respecting thing you can do is to just quietly stop participating in something that no longer meets you where you are. You know, we are all growing and changing in different ways, and I know sometimes we think, well, our partner hasn’t grown at all. And it may not seem like you’re growing in the same way, but they’re likely evolving in some ways, evolving away from you, perhaps, , instead of evolving towards you, which is what we all want when we have healthy, good relationships. So when you’re ready. The relationship will slowly deflate, whether it’s a friendship or a romantic partnership or anything in between. And when that happens, it is likely your nervous system acclimating to you. And when you no longer feel the pull to be heard or to be understood, it can actually be a huge relief. And that is how you, I think you live a really big life. Thanks so much for being here this week. I will see you next week if you have suggestions for podcasts. I know a lot of times people will leave me messages over on Instagram asking me questions. , I have such a hard time, it’s really difficult to answer.

We have. I think hundreds of questions right now that I have screenshotted so that we can anonymously answer those things, so hopefully we can find , a flow that works to be able to help everybody in the best way.

Employer branding is one of the most misunderstood strategic levers inside modern organizations.Done well, it mirrors great marketing, sharp copywriting, thoughtful design, and aligned talent strategy. It shapes recruiting outcomes. It influences pipeline quality. It changes who raises their hand.But here's the part leaders rarely talk about.Strong employer branding can accidentally attract the wrong stage of talent.In this episode, Anthony Vaughan breaks down a pattern he's seeing everywhere: companies launching brand-new motions — partnerships, ecosystems, community, content — while simultaneously pulling in deeply seasoned operators who are wired to scale, not build.Starting a new segment isn't a role.It's a startup inside your business.That requires emotional stamina. Long hours. Undefined playbooks. Constant iteration. And a willingness to live inside ambiguity.For many senior leaders, that season has already passed.The result? Misalignment. Frustration. Unrealized potential on both sides.This conversation explores:• Why employer branding often over-indexes on excitement instead of reality• How great branding can create hiring mismatches• The difference between building and scaling energy• Why timing matters more than title• What leaders and candidates alike need to ask before saying yesA grounded reflection on alignment, career seasonality, and the real work behind “building something from scratch.”

Welcome to the Squared Circle Podcast with your host Marie Shadows!Support:https://patreon.com/marieshadowshttps://marieshadows.substack.comhttps://campsite.bio/marieshadowshttps://rumble.com/user/marieshadowsIn this episode of the Square Circle Podcast, I break down that chaotic ten-man tag from Wrestle Kingdom 20: Bullet Club War Dogs (David Finlay, Gabe Kidd, Drilla Moloney) teaming with the unaffiliated LIJ pieces (Shingo Takagi & Hiromu Takahashi) against a rebuilt United Empire (Callum Newman, Great-O-Khan, HENARE, Andrade El Idolo, Jake Lee). HENARE is completely exempt—he's a warrior, loyal as hell, and the only one I still fully believe in. The match had wild energy—twisting corkscrews from Andrade, DDTs and suplexes from Shingo, Drilla Killer, stunners, spinebusters, Finlay & Hiromu using each other as human weapons (their classic circumstantial teammate dynamic). But the finish? Jake Lee hits a big boot on Hiromu for the clean pin—abrupt, flat, and one of the weakest endings I've seen for a match with this much built-in heat. The story was Callum vs. Finlay—why not let one of them get the decisive fall? That layup was right there. Post-match, Francesco Akira returns in a hoodie, superkicks Hiromu, unmasks… and gets zero pop. It just fell flat. The bigger issue: lost identities. United Empire used to have class, structure, and purpose—Ospreay & Fletcher leaving wrecked it, no real handover, now random additions like Andrade funding and Jake Lee jumping over. What does it even stand for anymore? Callum's whiny brat heel push has emotion but no control. Bullet Club War Dogs + Unaffiliated are floating too—fractured after Naito/Bushi, Tsuji didn't seize his moment. Both sides drifting, no direction, no convictions. New Japan needs urgency in storytelling again. If Callum had swung a chair at Ospreay during New Year's Dash instead of hugging it out? Real teacher-vs-student arc. That's the fire we're missing.Timestamps:00:00 - Intro & Why These 5-on-5 Matches Feel Off01:20 - HENARE Exempt – Warrior Forever02:45 - United Empire in Shambles: Ospreay/Fletcher Exit, Drama, Lost Identity07:10 - Callum Newman's Heel Turn – Growth or Just Whiny Brat?11:30 - Bullet Club War Dogs + Unaffiliated LIJ: Floating & Directionless14:50 - Match Highlights – Chaos, Double Teams, Human Weapons19:00 - Commentary Rant: Stop Acting Shocked at Finlay/Hiromu22:40 - The Abrupt Finish: Jake Lee Pins Hiromu – Weakest Ever?26:15 - Francesco Akira Return Falls Completely Flat29:00 - Lost Identities: Factions Need Meaning & Convictions32:30 - Final Thoughts – Faith in HENARE, Frustration with the Rest35:00 - Call to Action: Comment, Like, Subscribe, Join PatreonWhat did you think of the finish?

Andy Roddick and Producer Mike break down results from Day 10 of the 2026 Australian Open, covering the biggest results, standout performances, and storylines shaping the tournament. In this recap, they discuss the Alcaraz transition: How Carlos Alcaraz is playing so dominant that his high-profile split with long-time coach Juan Carlos Ferrero is becoming a secondary storyline. Zverev's Serving Clinic: How Alexander Zverev used 24 aces to halt the momentum of 20-year-old American breakout star Learner Tien in a four-set battle. Frustration in Melbourne: The disappointing exit for Coco Gauff, who was unable to find her rhythm against Elina Svitolina and was seen venting her frustration by smashing her racket in the player area after the match. The End of a Run: Iva Jovic's impressive tournament coming to an end at the hands of world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka. COMMENT BELOW: What was your favorite match from Day 10? Which matchups are you most excited for in Day 11?

Frustration in your design business isn't a personal failing—it's information. And if the same frustrations keep showing up in different forms, they're not exceptions. They're patterns. In this episode, Kimberley Seldon unpacks the most common frustrations interior designers face—working nonstop yet feeling financially uneasy, absorbing problems instead of fixing them, guessing instead of knowing—and explains why these challenges persist even in “successful” firms. The issue isn't talent, confidence, or effort. It's operating without the systems that make a business stable, predictable, and sustainable. Kimberley shares hard-earned insights from her own career, including why fixing problems with memory, vigilance, or hustle is exhausting—and why real relief only comes when frustration is replaced with structure. From financial visibility and owner compensation to capacity planning and decision-making, this episode reframes frustration as a signal that you've outgrown how you've been running your business. If you're busy, booked, and still uneasy—or successful but restless—this episode will help you understand why and show you where to start fixing it. In this episode we learn: - Why recurring frustration is a systems problem, not a personal flaw - How treating issues as “one-offs” keeps designers stuck in survival mode - Why managing your business by instinct—especially money—always feels unsafe - The difference between coping strategies and real, structural fixes - Why financial clarity depends on visibility, not revenue alone - How proper systems remove emotion from hiring, spending, and time off - Why capacity—not effort—is the missing link for exhausted designers - The mindset shift from “How do I manage this better?” to “What should already be in place?”

Send us a textI want to start today by talking about something that almost every dentist and practice owner I know has experienced at some point in their career.Frustration.Frustration with insurance companies. Frustration with contracts. Frustration with reimbursement. Frustration with feeling unheard.And when that frustration boils over, most dentists are told one of two things:“You signed a contract.” Or… “Just drop insurance.”I've heard that response from state associations. I've heard it from leaders in the dental industry. I've heard it from colleagues.And I struggle with it — not because it's always wrong, but because it has become the default answer, and default answers don't solve systemic problems.Support the show

On today’s episode, Rickey Smiley and the crew dove into President Trump’s renewed Greenland ambitions, with the administration touting a “framework” for a long‑term deal discussed at the World Economic Forum. Trump emphasized that he would not use military force and framed the agreement as a strategic security partnership involving NATO and Arctic operations, particularly focusing on mineral rights, missile‑defense initiatives, and Arctic security collaboration. Meanwhile, Pole to Pole star Will Smith described his terrifying near‑death experience while scuba diving beneath ten‑foot‑thick North Pole ice, recalling how he accidentally dislodged his oxygen mask before being pulled to safety—an ordeal he later described as both harrowing and spiritual. The crew also discussed reports of Lakers governor Jeanie Buss privately bristling at LeBron James’ influence within the franchise—tension reportedly fueled by disagreements over roster decisions and her belief that LeBron showed limited appreciation after the team drafted Bronny James. Rounding out the show, Stefon Diggs publicly praised girlfriend Cardi B for her unwavering support during his Patriots playoff run, crediting her for becoming an enthusiastic football fan and celebrating their growing family.

We react to the Dolphins' introductory press conference for new GM Jon-Eric Sullivan and Head Coach Jeff Hafley, who came across as a no-nonsense leader, and discuss the big quarterback question the new regime must solve with Malik Willis as a possible option.

This week we are talking about frustration on the human side of the leash.  We are taking a deeper look at what causes frustration including things like comparison, physical health/limitations, motivation, and learning styles. We are also talking about why we want to recognize our own frustrations in order to lessen or prevent them in the future.  We are getting honest about our own experiences and how we chose to work through those experiences.  Most importantly we talk about how our dogs benefit when we can control and acknowledge our own frustration during our interactions with our dogs.Follow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/sometimestheressideeye/⁠⁠

Vous vous surprenez à filtrer vos décisions, vos paroles, vos envies à travers ce que vous imaginez que les autres pourraient penser de vous ? Si c'est le cas, vous n'êtes pas seule. Pour beaucoup de femmes leaders, le regard des autres devient un poids silencieux qui influence leur façon de travailler, de s'exprimer… et de vivre. Dans cet épisode, je vous invite à déconstruire ensemble cette pression souvent invisible, mais profondément ancrée.Vous découvrez notamment :Pourquoi la peur du jugement est si fréquente chez les femmes ambitieuses,En quoi le regard des autres reflète souvent vos propres doutes,Comment repérer les schémas de people pleasing qui vous éloignent de vos désirs,Pourquoi ce besoin de plaire est souvent hérité de l'enfance ou du début de carrière,Comment retrouver une boussole interne pour prendre des décisions sereines,Ce que vos peurs vous révèlent de l'image de soi et des croyances limitantes,Des pistes concrètes pour vous libérer de l'envie de plaire à tout prix et construire un leadership aligné.Ce que pensent les autres ne dit rien de vous. Cela parle de leurs filtres, de leur histoire, de leurs peurs. Vous ne contrôlerez jamais leurs jugements, mais vous pouvez changer votre regard sur vous-même. Et c'est souvent là que commence une transformation profonde.Cet épisode s'adresse à toutes celles qui veulent faire des choix professionnels et personnels plus affirmés, moins dictés par l'approbation extérieure. Il vous aidera à vous reconnecter à ce qui compte pour vous, à reprendre confiance en votre voix et à tracer un chemin professionnel qui vous ressemble, avec moins de stress et plus de liberté intérieure.****Rejoignez la newsletter Sensées : elle vous donne accès à un concentré de coaching, d'inspiration et à un workshop offert chaque mois.

Joe and Lauri are back with their immediate, no-filter reactions to RuPaul's Drag Race Season 18, Episode 3. In this first-response episode of Big Takeaway, they break down a divisive RDR Live challenge, debate the judging, and ask the uncomfortable question: does this challenge even work anymore? Joe and Lauri assess whether the right queens landed in the top and bottom, and whether the correct winner and eliminated queen were chosen A spirited debate over Jane Don't vs. Juicy Love Dion, including how expectations, nerves, and runway presentation factor into the judges' decisions Frustration with the overall quality of the sketches, with comparisons to Saturday Night Live that do the queens no favors A larger critique of the RDR Live challenge itself, including whether it's fair—or even viable—for the current generation of queens Thoughts on performance anxiety, especially from queens expected to excel in comedy A breakdown of the lip sync, including whether track record ultimately determined the outcome Growing concern about what this episode signals for the upcoming Snatch Game Joe argues that RDR Live may be a fundamentally flawed challenge—one that asks queens to succeed at a format that even seasoned professionals struggle to execute well. Lauri agrees, pointing out that without proper rehearsal, writing support, or clear comedic direction, the challenge sets many contestants up to fail. Together, they question whether Drag Race should retire the format altogether—or radically rethink how it's produced. “At a certain point, you're not judging talent—you're judging who failed the least.” The full, moment-by-moment Drag Race Recap—with deeper analysis, runway discussion, and extended commentary—lives exclusively on Patreon and Apple Podcasts Subscriptions throughout the season.

Hour 2 of the Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima

The barking, spinning, and “I'm out” crate dives aren't your dog being difficult—they're your dog asking for clarity. We dig into how frustration gets mislabeled as shutdown, and how a few simple changes to structure and language can transform a chaotic session into focused, joyful work. From sport dogs to family companions, this is a practical tour of routines, marker words, and walking rules that actually stick.We start by building a clean communication system: yes to release and pay movement toward you, good to reinforce duration in position, and no as a calm boundary paired with brief leash pressure. You'll hear how to condition yes so dogs chase you for multiple rewards, why varying payout matters, and how to use good to create a reliable implied stay. Then we zoom out to session flow—potty first, calm thresholds, a clear “Are you ready?” to open the window, and short working blocks with smart resets. It's a recipe for lowering stress without dimming drive.Heeling gets a clarity overhaul, too. We separate with me from a formal heel to prevent mixed messages, explain right- vs left-side criteria, and show how to handle a young or hot dog who “leaks” arousal. You'll get hand-target progressions, perch-to-floor pivots, and leash-pressure releases marked with yes to fix forging and crooked positions. We also cover real-home setups for door greetings and guests—leash for safety, neutral handler energy, timely pops or taps, and rewards for calm engagement—so your dog can process excitement without blowing up.Whether you're wrangling a border collie who's overflowing with energy or tuning up a pet dog who fakes calm, the playbook is the same: clearer cues, tighter windows, and kinder limits.

You are on slide 34 when the CFO's phone buzzes. She glances down. The VP to her left is nodding, but you can tell he checked out ten minutes ago. You know this pitch cold. You have rehearsed it. You built the deck. You covered every feature, every capability, every objection. And still, you are dying up there. You spent weeks on this presentation. None of it matters because everyone in that room has already sat through the same pitch from three other vendors this month. “Pitching sucks,” says Danny Fontaine, author of Pitch, on an episode of the Sales Gravy Podcast. “It sucks for the people doing it because we get so stressed out, and we spend weeks doing mountains of work. Meanwhile, there is a whole audience who has just as bad of a time as us because they have to sit through an hour of 100 PowerPoint slides and they're bored.” He is right. The audience suffers just as much. They sit through identical presentations, back to back, trying to remember which vendor said what. Both sides leave exhausted. No one wins. There is a better way. Effective sales pitch techniques don't rely on slides. They create engagement, tell stories, and turn monologues into conversations that actually move deals forward. Why Traditional Pitches Fail The standard pitch follows the same predictable pattern. Company overview. Capabilities. Case studies. Pricing. Questions at the end. Every competitor uses the same structure. That means you are asking your prospect to choose between nearly identical presentations. When everything looks the same, decision makers default to price or familiarity. Your carefully crafted message gets lost in the noise. You are treating the pitch like a presentation when it should be a conversation. You are trying to inform when you should be persuading. Experience Beats Information In 1979, a small advertising agency called Allen Brady and Marsh (ABM) competed against industry giant Saatchi & Saatchi for the British Rail account. ABM's founder, Peter Marsh, knew he couldn't win by playing it safe. When the British Rail executives arrived for the pitch, no one answered the door. They rang the buzzer three times before it finally opened, with no one behind it. The receptionist ignored them while filing her nails. The waiting area was filthy. After a while of being dismissed, the chairman stood up to leave. That is when Marsh burst through the doors and said, “Gentlemen, you have just experienced what your customers go through every single day. Shall we see what we can do to put it right?” ABM won the account. And it worked because the executives didn't just understand the problem. They felt it. Most sales pitches fail because they ask buyers to care before they are emotionally engaged. Information alone doesn't create urgency—experience does. Start With Them, Not You Pitches always start the same: ‘Thanks for your time. Here's our agenda. Let me tell you about our company.' Your prospect stops listening after the first sentence. If you want engagement, start with a question. Ask what matters to them. Ask what would make the time valuable. Ask what problem they are trying to solve. Before you show a single slide, say something like, “Before we start, what would make this conversation worth your time today?” Or, “What is the biggest challenge you are facing with this right now?” Those questions do three things immediately. They show respect. They give you intelligence. And they turn the pitch into a conversation from the first minute. This works even better over Zoom, where attention is fragile and distractions are everywhere. When you ask early questions, you pull people in instead of competing with their inbox. Stories Create Memory The most powerful stories aren't pulled from case studies. They come from real life. Every meaningful achievement involves obstacles. Those obstacles contain lessons. Those lessons connect directly to the challenges your prospects are facing. A story without relevance is just noise. A story with a clear lesson becomes a lever. A consultant once shared a story about buying a secondhand Lego set. She started building it, only to discover key pieces were missing. After hours of searching for replacements, she had to start over. When pitching a complex implementation, she said, “That taught me something. At the beginning of any project, we have to make sure all the pieces are in the bag.” That story worked because it made preparation tangible. It made risk visible. It connected emotionally and logically. If the story does not clearly support the point you are making, don't tell it. Ask Before You Lose Them Most salespeople cling to their script even when they can see the room drifting away. They are afraid of losing control, so they keep talking. That is how you lose the deal. Don't wait until the Q&A to ask questions. Sprinkle them throughout your pitch to keep your audience engaged and the conversation alive. Ask if you're hitting the mark, what they want to explore deeper, and what matters most to them. When you ask questions, you aren't giving up control. You are gaining it. The person asking the questions is always in control of the conversation. Emotion First, Logic Second Buyers like to believe they are rational. They are not. Emotion drives decisions. Logic justifies them. If you want someone to care, you have to make them feel something. Frustration. Relief. Possibility. Urgency. That is why the British Rail experience worked. Marsh didn't argue that customer service was bad. He made them experience it. The feeling came first. The logic followed. Once a buyer is emotionally engaged, they start looking for reasons to say yes. They look for data to support the decision they already want to make. This is why information-first pitches fall flat. You are asking people to care before you have given them a reason to. Create the emotional connection first. Then give them the facts. When the Room Goes Cold Even the best sales pitch techniques don't work every time. Sometimes the wrong people show up, there is a fire you didn't know about, or your message just doesn't land. When that happens, don't push harder. Pivot. Call it out. Ask what would be more valuable. Acknowledge the moment instead of pretending it is not happening. That level of honesty builds trust. It shows you are there to solve a problem, not deliver a performance. Why This Matters Your prospect didn't show up to be entertained or to be bored. When you give them an experience they didn't expect, you separate yourself from every competitor running the same tired deck. You become memorable. You become relevant. You become human. The pitch that feels risky is usually the one that wins. The personal story. The direct question. The willingness to have a real conversation. Because the alternative is being forgotten the moment you leave the room, no matter how many slides you showed. Want to take your pitch from forgettable to unforgettable? Download the FREE A.C.E.D.
