You'll learn why consistency matters, what responsive sleep support actually looks like, and how to know when your baby needs comfort versus a clear, loving boundary.

Ep 120: In this episode of "Strength To Build", I'm breaking down the biggest mindset shifts that will completely change the way you approach your fitness journey.

Lasting results don't come from finding the "perfect" workout or meal plan—they come from changing the way you think about the process and WHY you do what you do.In this episode, we cover:Why you don't have to eat "clean" every day to lose fatThe truth about 1,200-calorie dietsWhy working out every day isn't the goalHow to stop letting the scale control your moodWhy one meal or one weekend won't ruin your progressThe difference between motivation and disciplineWhy soreness isn't a sign of a better workoutHow consistency always beats perfectionWhy chasing fast results often keeps you stuckThe importance of trusting the process instead of constantly changing your planIf you've been feeling frustrated, stuck, or like you're doing everything "right" but still aren't seeing the results you want, this episode is for you.__________________________________________________________________________________________________Apply for Advanced Training and Nutrition with Chelsey & Dr Emily Dow HEREStart your 7 day FREE trial of my new app HERE!Programs:8 Week Summer Prep Planhttps://www.trainerize.me/profile/chelseyrosehealth/?planGUID=d48c6fbf116c4e8fb4d31f94b5376fa3Want to work one on one with Chelsey?Set up a one on one consultation call here to see if personalized online training is right for you.Join a semi-private class in LA here.Email info@chelseyrosehealth.com to inquire about one on one in person training.Shop the things i'm loving HEREFollow Chelsey on Instagram:@Chelseyrosehealth@StrengthtobuildFollow Chelsey on TikTok Here."Submit a question to the show"

Stop Sending Emails You'll Regret How to Avoid Toxic Emails and Proptect Your Reputation Episode 311 (repeat of #134, Liz is based in L.A.) In this conversation with Liz Danziger we explore: why writing begins with thinking defining your purpose before writing identifying the reader's priorities choosing the right communication medium avoiding emotional emails writing persuasive business messages reducing email length placing your request where readers see it improving credibility through grammar using appreciation to increase response rates editing before sending the three Ps: purpose, person and point ----- About our guest, Liz Danziger: Liz is the author of four books published by major publishers including the business writing guide, "Get To The Point". She has decades of experience in helping teams to write clearly and confidently. Follow her on Linkedin https://www.linkedin.com/in/elizabethdanziger/ ----- Key Learning Points: Most writing problems begin before the first word is written. Define your purpose before you begin writing. Know your main point before you start typing. Always write with the reader in mind. Business writing serves three primary purposes: inform, request or persuade. Keep emails short and focused. Place your main request near the beginning of the email. Repeat the request at the end of the email. Match your writing style to your reader's preferences. Avoid emotional emails whenever possible. Read every important email aloud before sending it. Apply the "You Idiot Rule" to test the tone of an email. Grammar mistakes reduce credibility. Long emails are rarely read. Separate detailed information into attachments when appropriate. Thanking people increases the likelihood of a positive response. Purpose, Person and Point provide a practical framework for better communication. Shorter sentences improve readability. Reread every message before sending. For important messages, wait before editing whenever possible. ----- ----more---- Your Intended Message is the podcast about how you can boost your career and business success by honing your communication skills. We'll examine the aspects of how we communicate one-to-one, one to few and one to many – plus that important conversation, one to self.

Can you sleep train without doing cry-it-out? If you're an exhausted mom who desperately needs sleep but feels uncomfortable with harsh sleep training methods, this episode is for you. Today we're talking about the middle ground between “do nothing and just survive” and “shut the door and don't go back in.” Because you do not have to choose between abandoning your baby and abandoning yourself.

In today's episode, we unpack the small number of things that truly drive progress in your training, nutrition, and mindset, and why overcomplicating the process is often what holds people back. We talk through why consistency is the real game changer, how keeping things simple leads to better long-term results, and why unrealistic expectations can quietly derail your progress. We also explore how your daily habits, environment, and choices shape your outcomes far more than chasing the “perfect” plan. We hope you enjoy the episode!

When a client's motivation dips, nothing else survives the fall. Compliance drops. Consistency disappears. Effort fades. And without those three things, results become impossible — which circles right back to episode one's core fear: the client who isn't getting results.But here's what doesn't work: yelling louder. Making the program harder. Wondering why a fully employed adult with a family, a mortgage, and a calendar full of obligations isn't matching the energy you bring to the gym floor every day. We can't force motivation. What we can do is get curious, get empathetic, and get strategic.Big THANK YOU to our sponsors:- CoachRX - Hands down, the best platform for coaches.

What does this client's life actually allow right now? Work stress, family obligations, sleep quality, caregiving responsibilities — all of it affects how much a person can bring to their training. Their capacity this month may look nothing like it did six months ago, and that's not failure. That's life. Your job is to meet them where they are.Clarity — Are you and your client still on the same page about what they're working toward — and does the current plan reflect that? Goals shift. Life changes fast. A well-designed 12-week block can become completely misaligned with a client's reality by week six. Rebuild the communication. Reclarify the target. Make sure the plan still makes sense for the person standing in front of you today.Core Values — Motivation comes and goes. Discipline fluctuates. But core values — the one or two fundamental qualities a person anchors their identity to — do not change. David draws on Brené Brown's Dare to Lead and the OPEX coaching method to make the case: when training is connected to a client's core values (health, accountability, integrity, service, freedom), it stops being optional. It becomes part of who they are.THE QUESTION THAT CHANGES EVERYTHINGEvery coach has been there: a client who says they want results but isn't doing the work. The instinct is to push. To confront. To ask "why aren't you trying harder?" David challenges coaches to reframe entirely — and ask instead: what is making this feel hard? That one shift lowers defensiveness, opens conversation, and gets directly to the root of the capacity, clarity, or values disconnect driving the motivation problem.RESOURCES Core Values List — Use it yourself first, then share it with clients.Dare to Lead by Brené Brown — Referenced for its framework on identifying and living by core values.CoachRx — The coaching platform David uses and recommends.

Welcome to episode #1036 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). Ashley Herd did not set out to become a management expert. Trained as an employment lawyer and later serving in senior HR and leadership roles supporting organizations including McKinsey & Company, Ashley built her career at the intersection of people, performance and workplace culture. What began as practical leadership advice shared through short-form social media videos evolved into a massive online following, with hundreds of thousands of managers turning to her for direct, actionable guidance on how to lead teams without burning people out. Her new book, The Manager Method - A Practical Framework to Lead, Support, and Get Results, distills that experience into a deceptively simple framework built around Pause, Consider, Act… a reminder that leadership is not about reacting faster, but thinking more clearly. In this conversation, Ashley explores why so many organizations continue promoting high performers into management roles without preparing them to lead people, why workplace culture is often shaped more by individual managers than company values, and how the modern workplace has been reshaped by the pandemic, generational shifts and AI. Ashley argues that the biggest failures in leadership are rarely strategic… they are relational. Silence, unclear expectations, lack of feedback and the inability to coach people effectively create cascading organizational problems. At the same time, she remains optimistic that AI can become a meaningful thought partner for managers… not replacing judgment, empathy or coaching, but helping leaders pause long enough to think better about how they communicate and support others. Grounded in practical experience rather than abstract theory, Ashley's work is ultimately about helping managers become more human… and helping organizations remember that people are not line items on a spreadsheet.

This week on the KORE Women podcast, Dr. Summer Watson is joined by Sharon Schanzer, who is the founder of RLDGROUP, her long-running design studio, and What's Your Boulder. She is a strategic execution advisor, who helps leaders finally move the things that have been sitting in the background for far too long. Sharon challenges the common belief that we don't move forward, because we lack time, but instead shows how friction, overthinking, unclear communication, and unnecessary complexity are often the real barriers. In this conversation, we talk about how to identify the one thing that's actually holding you back, how to simplify execution, and how leaders unintentionally become bottlenecks in their own organizations. If you have something that's been sitting on your list for months or even years, this episode will give you a new way to approach it and finally move it forward.

267 - You're not off track… but your mind might be. In this episode, I'm sharing a recent moment where I caught myself feeling disappointed and when I really looked at it, it wasn't just the situation. It was the story I was telling myself about it. And that story? It wasn't aligned with who I actually want to be. This is where so many of us get stuck, not because we're not capable, but because we're not working with our mind in a way that supports the results we want. In this episode, I break down a few simple but powerful “rules of the mind” that shape how we think, how we show up, and what we ultimately create in our lives. When you understand these, you can start to shift out of patterns that keep you stuck and move toward what you actually want with more clarity, intention, and confidence. If you've been feeling off, frustrated, or like you're not seeing the progress you expected, this episode will help you realign and start getting results in a way that actually works.

SummaryIn the latest episode of Visionary Leader with Jim Robinson, Sean Patton, a Green Beret, entrepreneur, and leadership expert, joins Jim for a deep dive into what it means to lead with a warrior's mindset in today's world.The conversation kicks off with Sean defining a warrior as someone who fights for a noble cause greater than themselves, drawing a parallel between warriors and effective leaders. According to Sean, true leaders are driven by purpose, not selfish gratification, and the journey to achieving great things is where fulfillment lies, not simply in the result. His analogy—buying a black belt versus earning it through dedication—drives home the importance of embracing the process over shortcuts.Additionally, the episode delves into practical leadership challenges: distinguishing between intensity and clarity, managing team priorities, and the critical role of personal ownership. Sean explains that clarity comes from alignment and intentional agreements, while intensity, when overused, can dull its impact. Leaders must model personal responsibility, acknowledge missteps, and create a culture where team members do the same. This approach transforms organizational culture and builds real trust.The show wraps with actionable advice: celebrate team wins, invest trust and respect before expecting it in return, and always challenge individuals with attainable commitments that build confidence over time.

Most women don't realize they're stuck until they've already tried everything that was "supposed" to fix them. In this episode, we unpack one of the most frustrating experiences women face: going beyond conventional medicine, investing in functional medicine, and still feeling stuck. I introduce the two common paths women take: traditional healthcare and functional medicine and explain why both can fail in different ways. You'll hear exactly why being told “everything is normal” leaves so many women without answers, and why even advanced testing and supplement protocols don't always lead to real results. I break down the critical difference between the idea of functional medicine and how it's often delivered in practice. I explain how poor sequencing, incomplete strategies, and lack of real-time support can actually make symptoms worse even when you're following the plan perfectly. If you've ever felt like your body just isn't responding despite your effort, this conversation will hit home. You'll also learn why supplements alone are rarely the solution, and how missing foundational pieces like nutrition, lifestyle, and stress regulation can stall progress completely. I have a powerful “flower and soil” analogy to explain why your body needs the right environment before it can actually heal. Most importantly, this episode reframes the narrative so many women internalize that they are the problem. If you've tried both conventional and functional approaches and still don't feel like yourself, this isn't a failure of your body. It's a gap in the process. By the end, you'll understand exactly what's been missing—and what a truly effective, personalized approach to healing actually requires.   Time Stamps:   (1:17) Two Types of Women Come To Us (3:27) Recent Client Call (8:57) The Premise and Execution of Functional Health (9:34) Doctor Bob Example (10:50) Recent Vital Spark Google Review (12:09) Functional Health Dr. Joe (14:42) The Sequencing Issue (27:47) Working with Vital Spark --------------------- Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching --------------------- Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation.  --------------------- Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program --------------------- Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life! --------------------- Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share! --------------------- Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

Martin "Marty" Strong is a former Navy SEAL, business leader, and author who challenges conventional thinking about how companies — and their leaders — must operate in a rapidly changing world. He is currently the co-founder and CEO of the Warrior's Haven USA Foundation. Over two decades as a SEAL, Marty led 36 special operations missions in high-stakes, unpredictable environments where adaptability was essential. He later brought that same mindset to the private sector, including eight years as a portfolio manager serving high-net-worth clients at UBS. Drawing on both experiences, Marty argues that past success can become a hidden liability. Too many leaders rely on methods that once worked, without recognizing that the marketplace has fundamentally changed. The result: decisions based on outdated assumptions rather than current realities. As Marty explains, it's like using an old encyclopedia to solve modern problems — confident, but dangerously misinformed. In this conversation, Marty shares how leaders can recognize when their thinking has become rigid, develop intellectual humility, and build organizations that are nimble enough to adapt before disruption forces their hand.

HOW TO PRAYER AND GET RESULTS | PROPHET SHEPHERD BUSHIRI

The Manager Method: Practical, Human-Centered Leadership for a Changing WorkplaceIn a world where technology and AI are transforming the workplace at breakneck speed, the fundamentals of great leadership remain rooted in human connection and intentional action. In a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Ashley Herd, the Founder and CEO of Manager Method, to explore the core of effective management. Drawing on her diverse background in legal and HR leadership at organizations like McKinsey, Ashley shares how to move beyond abstract theory into actionable behaviors. This conversation provides a roadmap for executives and founders to drive performance and talent retention through a refreshingly human-centered lens.Scaling Leadership Excellence: The "Pause, Consider, Act" FrameworkHigh-performing leaders often struggle with the "reactive trap"—the tendency to respond impulsively to the endless stream of workplace demands. Ashley Herd argues that the most effective tool in a leader's arsenal is the intentional pause. Most management mistakes are born from quick answers that leaders later regret, especially in high-pressure environments. By taking a moment to step back before making a decision, a leader creates the space necessary to avoid bias and emotional knee-jerk reactions. This practice is the foundation of the "Manager Method," transforming leadership from a series of frantic responses into a deliberate strategy that builds trust and long-term credibility with the team.Effective leadership development must also be scalable and sustainable, rather than a one-time event that ends once a workshop concludes. Ashley emphasizes a "three-legged stool" approach to management training, which combines on-demand video learning, practical resource guides, and live cohort sessions. This model moves away from the traditional, expensive external trainer model and focuses on building internal muscle memory. By integrating bite-sized, practical lessons into a manager's monthly routine, organizations can ensure that leadership skills are being practiced and refined in real-time. This ensures that the "human touch" remains a core differentiator, even as automation and AI begin to handle more administrative heavy lifting.Transparency remains the ultimate currency in a modern workplace defined by rapid change. Many leaders wait until they have a "perfect" plan before communicating with their teams, but this silence often breeds anxiety and speculation. Ashley advocates for a "work-in-progress" communication style where leaders acknowledge what they know, admit what they don't, and involve the team in brainstorming solutions. Whether navigating a personnel change or integrating new AI tools, involving the team early reduces fear and empowers employees to become stakeholders in the outcome. When people feel seen and valued as human beings rather than mere resources, they are far more likely to remain engaged and productive during periods of transition.About Ashley HerdAshley Herd is the Founder and CEO of Manager Method and a highly sought-after leadership consultant. With extensive experience in HR and employment law, she has led people operations for global firms and has become a leading voice in modern management. She is the author of The Manager Method: A Practical Framework to Lead, Support, and Get Results, and is dedicated to making high-level leadership training accessible to managers at every level.About Manager MethodManager Method is a leadership development firm that provides practical, scalable training for organizations seeking to improve management performance. The company offers a mix of digital learning, resource toolkits, and facilitated sessions designed to build foundational skills in communication, feedback, and empathy. Manager Method focuses on human-centered frameworks that drive results by empowering leaders to lead with clarity and intention.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeManager Method Official Website: www.managermethod.comAshley Herd on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleyherd/Key Episode HighlightsThe "Pause, Consider, Act" Framework: A three-step method for reducing impulsivity and making more empathetic, informed decisions.Transparent Communication: Why admitting "I don't have all the answers yet" is more effective than silence during periods of organizational change.The Three-Legged Stool of Training: A scalable model for management development that integrates video, resources, and live peer discussion.AI and the Human Differentiator: Why the rise of automation makes human-centered management skills like empathy more valuable than ever.Leadership as a Practice: Learning from music—why consistency and foundational "basics" are more important than being a management virtuoso.ConclusionThe conversation with Ashley Herd highlights that great leadership is built on small, consistent actions rooted in empathy and transparency. By adopting the "Pause, Consider, Act" framework, leaders can navigate workplace complexity with confidence while building a culture that prioritizes human connection.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

How do you become an irresistible coach? If you look around your industry, you'll notice something interesting. Some coaches consistently get results, steady referrals, and clients who keep coming back… even though they're not the most experienced, the loudest online, or the cheapest option. Meanwhile, a lot of really smart, caring coaches struggle to stand out or wonder if they're even worth what they charge. Today, I want to show you what actually separates those coaches — not marketing tactics or credentials, but how they show up inside the coaching relationship itself. And once you understand this, it changes how you coach, how clients experience you, and why they choose you in the first place Chapters 00:00 Becoming an Irresistible Coach 11:55 The Power of Empathy 24:51 Encouragement: Fueling Client Belief 36:53 Empowerment: Fostering Independence

Welcome to Manufacturing Greatness with Trevor Blondeel, where we work with organizations to manufacture greatness by leveraging resources you already have to achieve greater retention, productivity, and profits. To learn more, visit www.manufacturinggreatness.com and click here to subscribe to Trevor's monthly newsletter. Now, let's jump in! In manufacturing, most leaders don't struggle because they lack technical knowledge. They struggle because they're not connecting with their teams. When skill gaps widen, labor shortages grow, and hiring challenges persist, it's rarely an operations problem. It's a leadership and communication problem. That's exactly why I wrote Manufacturing Greatness, releasing May 11, 2027 with Page Two. This book is for Operations Managers, Production Managers, Manufacturing Managers, and Shift Supervisors who want high performing teams that stick around and consistently deliver results. Leaders who are ready to move beyond telling people what to do and start leading through curiosity, communication skills, and deeper conversations. Inside, you'll find practical tools to strengthen safety culture, improve employee engagement, support workforce retention, and build a workplace where teams work together, get results, and stay. Now I need your help. We've narrowed the subtitle down to five options, and I want the manufacturing community to weigh in. 1) How to Be More Productive with the People You Already Have 2) How Curious Leaders Strengthen Relationships to Improve Safety, Quality, and Productivity 3) How to Show Up, Clarify Expectations, and Instill Accountability to Streamline Your Operation 4) Three Conversations to Build High-Performing Teams that Work Together, Get Results, and Stick Around 5) Three Conversations to Build High-Performing Teams that Connect, Deliver, and Stick Around Email me at trevor@manufacturinggreatness.com and let you know about favorite subtitle option!
