Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Stop Getting Unstuck and Do This Instead August 27, 2025 | Episode - 5168 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Feeling stuck? Scott reveals the single most powerful force that drives both business success and personal fulfillment. It's not motivation or willpower. It's something far more practical that you can start creating today. Whether you're building a business or just want a better lifestyle, this episode will shift how you think about growth. Get ready to explore possibilities and discover why the solution to being stuck isn't what most people think it is. Featured Story Scott shares his philosophy on growth and why he "blows things up" when he feels stuck. He breaks down the real reason businesses struggle to make money and why people can't answer the simple question: "What do you do for fun?" Through client examples and personal insights, he connects the dots between opportunity, passion, and legacy. The message is clear: stop focusing on getting unstuck and start creating more opportunities instead. Important Points If your business isn't making enough money, you don't have enough leads - opportunity solves almost any business problem. The fix for feeling stuck isn't getting unstuck, it's finding more opportunities to explore and grow. Passion begins when you explore possibilities and stumble upon something that captures your interest. Memorable Quotes "If you have enough leads, you could be a terrible salesman with a bad product charging too much money and you're still going to be busy." "The fix to getting unstuck is just finding more opportunities, something else to go after." "I'd rather you build a great legacy today, and that all starts with opportunity." Scott's Three-Step Approach Explore the possibilities by trying something new that catches your interest, whether it's pickleball or reading a magazine. Seek more leads if you're in business, or more activities that make you happy if it's personal growth you're after. Build your legacy today by creating opportunities that allow you to serve more people and live more fully. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Do you ever notice a persistent nudge or whisper inside that something in your life needs to change, but you feel stuck on the edge, unsure how to act? Making bold decisions often feels uncomfortable, whether it's leaving a job, having a difficult conversation, or taking on a big opportunity. In this episode, I explore how to recognize these nudges, give yourself permission to act, and step forward with confidence, even when the unknown feels overwhelming.   I share a four-step framework for moving from hesitation to action. You'll hear how focusing on what you can control, leaning into your intuition, and allowing space for uncertainty can change the way you approach bold choices. These insights are drawn from experiences in my own life and work with clients, illustrating how moving through discomfort can open doors you didn't know were there.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://thejoyfulpractice.com/222

This week, we've got the return of my friend Saman Kesh, an award-winning music video director and all-around creative force of nature, to talk about the wild and untamed internal landscape of ADHD productivity. Saman is known for his work with bands such as Kygo, Basement Jaxx, and Placebo. And most recently, his work directing Ed Sheeran's Azizam music video - if you haven't seen it, check it out, it's real cool. We get into the weeds of what makes a tool “sticky,” how to lower both the hurdle and the stakes when you're stuck, and the role of friction in derailing our systems. Saman also shares how he uses routines, gamification, and a lot of self-reparenting to manage the inevitable paralysis that comes with big projects, tiny tasks, and everything in between. This one's much more of a chill conversation with friends about what works and what doesn't in their ADHD worlds. Azizam (Official Music Video) - Written and Directed by Saman Kesh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MI9ZpIKgyf0 If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at HackingYourADHD.com/237 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/y835cnrk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HackingYourADHD This Episode's Top Tips 1. Try reducing friction on your most important tools. Move your organizational tools (like whiteboards or to-do lists) somewhere visible and easy to access. Out of sight, really is out of mind with ADHD. 2. Lower the Stakes when a task feels overwhelming. Remember, it doesn't have to be perfect or done all at once; if we can reduce the emotional weight of a task, it often also reduces the paralysis. 3. When feeling stuck, try spicing things up by using things like dice, tactile tools, or creative mini-games (like drawing a doodle or rolling a task die) to inject novelty and dopamine into your routine.

Preacher: Michael Collier Sermon: Getting Unstuck  Date: 03/08/2025

This week on A Mental Health Break, we're honored to host a guest who has turned profound personal struggle into a mission to heal millions. Jason Hopcus, the founder and CEO of Connection Project, is a pioneering entrepreneur who's using cutting-edge technology to revolutionize access to mental health resources. His journey began in 2011 when a personal crisis led him to lose everything. From that moment, Jason transformed his story into a powerful mission to make support radically more accessible, blending his 25 years of business leadership with a deeply personal understanding of what it means to feel lost.Jason's work is a masterclass in turning empathy into action. As the President of NAMI Arapahoe/Douglas Counties, he's reached over 7 million people through strategic media campaigns, and his podcasts "Get Unstuck. Move Forward with Your Life" and "Nobody's Perfect" have resonated with countless listeners. He's also a bestselling author and a certified life coach who's now building AI-powered solutions to make mental health support more efficient and human-centered, especially for vulnerable populations across Colorado.In this powerful episode, Jason will share the moment that led him to shift from personal crisis to becoming a leading mental health advocate. We'll explore his tech-driven approach to mental health support, discussing how AI makes care more accessible and how he balances technology with the deeply human side of healing. Jason will also offer practical steps for anyone feeling stuck, and he'll reveal the one key takeaway from his book, Get Unstuck and Move Forward with Your Life, that he hopes resonates most with readers. This is an essential conversation for anyone looking for hope and a roadmap to moving forward.Support the showHave a question for the host or guest? Want their freebee?

The ABD [All But Dissertation] phase can either feel liberating—no more coursework or comps!—or like the floor has dropped out. The scaffolding that prepared you for being a graduate assistant, passing comps or conducting your research gives way to a new, wide open space where you are just supposed to write. While some people will flourish in this unstructured writing space, others are left playing detective—how do you know when to approach advisors for feedback? How many times can you ask them to read something—and how far in advance should you ask? How long is the finished dissertation supposed to be? The writing and revisions phase can become a path paved with uncertainty—and an unhealthy desire to overperform. If a good dissertation is just a done dissertation, what can students who can't find [or afford] a dissertation coach do? In this episode, Dr. Ramon Goings joins Dr. Christina Gessler to share practical strategies they each use when coaching students from ABD to PhD. These actionable tips can help whether you want to create a dissertation-writing support group, seek a writing partner, or go it alone. Our guest is: Dr. Ramon Goings, who is associate professor and Acting Director of the Language, Literacy, and Culture doctoral program. Dr. Goings is the author of over 50 scholarly publications including four books. He served as the Editor-In-Chief of the Journal of African American Males in Education from 2017-2020, was named a 2017 Emerging Scholar by Diverse: Issues in Higher Education, received the 2016 College Board Professional Fellowship, and was a fellow with the White House Initiative on Educational Excellence for African Americans.

Getting Unstuck with Goal Setting & Accountability In this episode of Tribe Builders, we're tackling one of the biggest things that holds people back: fear. Fear of showing up. Fear of being judged. Fear of not having all the answers. I unpack real conversations with business owners who hesitate to share what they do online—because what if someone questions them? We'll explore how goal setting and accountability can break through that hesitation and how a coach (like me!) can help shift the mindset from perfection to progress. I also share why being attached to your actions—not the outcome—is the key to real momentum. You'll walk away with practical strategies to identify small but meaningful weekly goals that take 2 hours or less—perfect for building habits, getting traction, and staying out of overwhelm. And yes, I share how you can work with me directly—whether it's 1:1 or inside my group—to get the support and structure you need to finally move forward.   Follow Tanya: Tiktok @tanyarooneymn   Instagram @tanyarooneymn   Facebook @tanya.rooney28   youtube @tanyarooneymn www.tanyarooney.com

In this Episode: The "Achieve Results Now" podcast, with hosts Mark Cardone and Theron Feidt, likens achieving your goals to using a GPS. They emphasize that just as a GPS helps you navigate, you can use a personal "GPS" system to reach any desired outcome in life. The hosts break down this analogy into three core components: 1. Set Your Destination (Clarity is Power) The first crucial step is to clearly define your destination. Many people know what they don't want but lack a specific vision of what they do want. Just like a GPS needs a precise address, your goals need to be crystal clear. Vague goals, like "going north," can lead you astray over time. The clearer your destination, the more accurately your personal GPS can guide you back on track when detours inevitably arise. Regularly reviewing and confirming your goals' relevance (e.g., every three months) ensures you're always heading in the right direction. 2. Pin Your Current Location (Be Honest About Where You Are) The second step involves honestly assessing your current position. This can be challenging as people often downplay or exaggerate their starting point. The hosts stress the importance of being objective about your present circumstances without judgment. Whether you're far from your goal or surprisingly close, this honest evaluation provides the necessary data for your "GPS" to calculate the correct route. They suggest asking a trusted friend or spouse for an objective opinion or even taking a self-assessment (like a fitness test) to get a true picture. 3. Set a Realistic ETA (Adjust, Don't Quit) Finally, you need to establish a realistic Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) for your goal. The hosts joke about always trying to beat the GPS's estimated time, but they highlight that setting an unrealistic ETA can be demotivating if you fall short, while too easy an ETA provides no challenge. The key is to be realistic and understand that, like a GPS, your ETA will adjust due to unforeseen "traffic" or "detours" (life's obstacles). The most important takeaway is to never quit when faced with delays; simply reset the timeline, not the goal itself. Breaking down large goals into smaller "checkpoints" (like rest stops on a long drive) can help maintain motivation by allowing you to celebrate progress and see how far you've come. By applying these three GPS principles—setting a clear destination, honestly assessing your starting point, and setting a realistic yet adaptable timeline—you can effectively navigate your journey toward achieving any goal. What's one goal you're working on right now that could benefit from using this "GPS" approach?

Running a business while raising kids often feels like juggling flaming swords—with a baby on your hip and someone asking what's for dinner. In this episode, I'm answering real, raw questions from moms who are tired, overwhelmed, and wondering if they're doing any of this right (you are, by the way). We dig into AI without the hype, explore whether it's time to launch something new, and talk about that mental load that just won't quit.---Questions Answered in This Episode:“How can I save time with AI without sounding like a robot?”→ My favorite AI uses for busy moms—plus how to actually train it to sound like you.“I have an idea for a second offer. I'm not quite sure if I should go for it or not though. I'm mildly overwhelmed as it is.”→ When to go all in—and when to put that shiny new idea on the “not now” shelf.“What is one practical thing I can do this week to feel more in control of my business? I feel like I'm losing it.”→ The one CEO-level habit I swear by to help you take back your calendar, your brain space, and your power.“I want to outsource, but I feel weird handing things off. What if someone messes it up or judges me or I lose control of my business?”→ We unpack the real fears behind delegation—and how to delegate without micromanaging or spiraling.“How do you handle the mental load of running a business and raising kids?”→ Truth? Sometimes I don't. But here's what helps me manage it all (without pretending it's easy).---Additional ResourcesBook a free Strategy Session with me and I'll help you figure out your next steps to hit your goals!Want to submit a question for a future episode?

Most people don't actually know what they want. We chase goals—career success, financial security, personal milestones—only to feel underwhelmed once we get there. Why? Because we rarely stop to ask, “What's the goal of the goal?” In the final episode of Season 3, we unpack this powerful concept (popularised by Dan Heath) and explore how the thing we think we need to get unstuck might not be the thing we truly want. Plus, we'll give you a sneak peek at what's coming in Season 4. It's a fitting finale to help you make space for a surprising second act.Discover more:INFO-GRAPHIC DOWNLOADSPACEMAKERS WEBSITE / Season 3YOUTUBERAISING TECH HEALTHY HUMANSThis episode is made possible with support from our sponsor: Banjo's Bakery Cafes This podcast is recorded and produced by Production Farm StudiosMentioned in this episode:BANJOS BAKERY PROMO #2A warm thanks to our sponsor, Banjo's Bakery Café's, who are expanding across Australia and looking for new franchisee's!

Who are you becoming—and who is shaping you along the way? In this episode of The Spacemakers, Matt and Daniel explore why personal change is rarely a solo journey. From habits to health to mindset, we're deeply shaped by the people we spend time with. Behaviour is contagious—we mimic what we see, not just what we hear. Which means the fastest way to change yourself is to travel alongside others who are heading where you want to go. Whether it's forming accountable relationships, finding your ‘right tribe,' or simply being brave enough to go first and inspire change in others, this conversation will reshape how you think about stuckness. You don't have to do it alone.

In this heartfelt episode of the Next Level Podcast, Brianna McIntyre steps in for Michael to explore a deeply personal and relatable topic: avoidance. Speaking candidly from her own experience, Brianna shares how seasons of hiding or silence—sometimes spiritual, sometimes fear-based—can lead to a subtle kind of stuckness. She unpacks how comfort zones can masquerade as wisdom, and how true growth often begins with recognizing where we've avoided action, emotion, or even God's prompting. Through gentle insight and spiritual encouragement, Brianna invites listeners to examine their own hearts, pray for clarity, and take just one brave step forward. The episode closes with a powerful prayer over listeners, releasing them into supernatural clarity, compassion, and actionable peace.

Have you ever thought of your book as a business card that opens doors? It's not just about selling copies; it's about the ripple effects your book creates in your industry and beyond. From attracting the right clients to building a reputation as a thought leader, a book can position you for success in ways you never imagined. But it requires more than just publishing—it needs a plan to engage your audience and amplify your message. That's why I created the Biz Book Pub Hub. Our experts and community members are here to help you navigate every stage, from writing to marketing and beyond. Get started at www.BizBookPubHub.com. I'm excited to introduce today's panelists, who will share their stories of transformation through their books. Bruce Scheer wrote “Inspire Your Buyers: Go to Market with a Story That Sizzles,” to show you how to craft a clear, compelling narrative that gets everyone—from your team to your target buyers—on the same page and fired up to take action, so you can close more deals and grow faster. Emily Crookston wrote “Unwritten: The Thought Leader's Guide to Not Overthinking Your Business Book,” the go-to guide for business owners who want to stop overthinking and finally get their book done—without pausing everything else in their business to make it happen. Karin Freeland wrote “Grab Life by the Dreams: The Essential Guide to Getting Unstuck and Living Your Purpose,” your no-BS guide to ditching autopilot, owning your purpose, and building a life you're actually excited to wake up to—starting now. Please join me in welcoming Bruce, Emily, and Karin.  In this episode, we discuss the following:

How to have the conversations that are most difficult — and most important.Before you can have hard conversations with others, you need to have an honest conversation with yourself. That's the counterintuitive advice from Sheila Heen, who says our own internal narratives often derail our attempts at negotiation and conflict resolution."The first negotiation is actually a negotiation I have with myself about my own story," explains Heen, a Harvard Law School lecturer and co-author of Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most. When entering challenging interactions, she recommends a powerful shift where we consider that our perspective is only one side of the story. "If I can shift my purpose from convincing you of something to just understanding how you see it and why we might see it differently, that actually is more likely to generate a good conversation with less defensiveness for both of us."In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Heen joins Matt Abrahams to explore effective communication in high-stakes situations. From giving and receiving feedback with her “ACE” framework (Appreciation, Coaching, and Evaluation) to recognizing the "degrees of difficulty" in disagreements, she offers practical strategies for having productive conversations even when emotions run high.Episode Reference Links:Sheila Heen Sheila's Books: Difficult Conversations / Thanks for the Feedback  Ep.144 Communicating Through Conflict: How to Get Along with AnyoneEp.136 The Art of Disagreeing Without Conflict: Navigating the Nuance  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:36) - Managing Anxiety in Tough Conversations (04:15) - Why Emotions Matter (07:23) - Shifting the Story We Tell Ourselves (08:41) - Starting with the Real Issue (10:20) - Getting Unstuck in Conflict (13:18) - ACE: The Three Types of Feedback (16:20) - Making Feedback Actionable (18:40) - Finding Common Ground (20:17) - The Final Three Questions (27:32) - Conclusion    *****This episode is brought to you by Babbel.
