"Gratitude is the space where we humble ourselves to the blessing of life itself." From the jump, Mindful B Anthony sets the tone for a Detroit story rooted in legacy, resilience, and transformation. In this Detroit is Different conversation, he takes us on a journey from his family's four-generation hold on Van Dyke and Mack—where his grandmother insisted “this land will always have value”—to the bus routes that taught him the city block by block, and the classrooms that sparked his love for math, language, and purpose. He reflects on leaving Renaissance for Southeastern, catching the 6 Mile across town before dawn, and navigating Hampton University's business of education while rediscovering his true calling in healing, creativity, and entrepreneurship. What begins with childhood alley basketball games and honor roll trophies unfolds into a life of activism with We the People of Detroit, a mentorship lineage through Charity Hicks and Tawana Petty, and the artistry of copper and crystals turned into “energy tools disguised as jewelry.” This episode is a blueprint of how Black Detroit's past—our migrations, our neighborhood pride, our community organizing—feeds the future of culture creators who, like Anthony, are shaping new ways of living, healing, and building legacy. If you've ever wondered how Detroit blocks, schools, buses, and bands prepare us for the world stage, this is the conversation you need to hear. Detroit is Different is a podcast hosted by Khary Frazier covering people adding to the culture of an American Classic city.

Can you believe we've made it to 200 episodes of the Herbs with Rosalee podcast?! Week after week, I get to sit in the host's chair—asking the questions, guiding the conversation, and shining the spotlight on other herbalists (and the plants we love). Honestly, it's one of my favorite things to do.So when we realized the 200th episode was coming up, we knew it had to be something different. At first, someone suggested I should be the one in the hot seat. My reaction? Hard no. Absolutely not.But the idea kept tugging at me… and eventually, I caved. And! If anyone was going to flip the script and interview me, it had to be my dear friend Mason Hutchison from HerbRally. Not only do I love his hosting skills, Mason knows me better than most people on this planet—which meant he could ask the kinds of questions I'd never think to ask myself.And wow… he did.We laughed over bloopers, looked back at how the show has grown, and talked about the ways podcasting has stretched me—not just as an herbalist, but as a person.I shared stories about my ever-evolving plant path—from activism, to my early days with herbs, to how UTIs (yes, really!) shaped my herbal journey in surprising ways. We also pulled back the curtain on what goes into producing this podcast, and chatted about some of the threads that run through my life right now: walking, strength training, friendship, grief, and resilience.There are also a few surprises in there - one that left me in tears. But! No spoilers! You'll just have to watch the show. (And I DO recommend watching this one as there's lots of entertaining b-roll going on.)It was one of those conversations that felt both light and deep at the same time. I'm so grateful to share it with you—and to be celebrating 200 episodes together.Here's a peek at what we covered:► Why most podcasts don't make it past seven episodes—and what it really took for me to reach 200► How creating a podcast has shaped me as an herbalist and educator► The behind-the-scenes teamwork that goes into every single episode► How my dad's adventurous spirit and my mom's ethnobotanical work continue to shape my life today► How getting arrested as a young activist eventually led me deeper into herbalism (and guided me toward a gentler, less in-your-face approach to bringing herbalism to people!)► and so much more…For this episode, I also have to give a big shout-out to YOU. Truly, this podcast wouldn't exist without you listening, sharing, and showing up week after week. Your enthusiasm for the show is what keeps me going.And a special thank-you to all of my students here at Herbs with Rosalee—you make it possible for us to keep producing the podcast. An extra-special nod goes to our Podcast Circle members, whose direct support means so much. I'm so grateful for each and every one of you.----Get full show notes, transcript, and more information at: herbswithrosaleepodcast.comYou can find Mason at HerbRally.com.For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast, follow @rosaleedelaforet on Instagram!Working successfully with herbs requires three essential skills.

In Episode 277 of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy takes you inside a true David vs. Goliath battle as he fights for the 2025 Signal Awards in the Business category. As the only Canadian and the only independent finalist up against billion dollar networks like Wondery, iHeart, and Amazon, Kelly reveals how underdogs can rally support and compete with giants. He shares the exact playbook he is using: creating awareness through posts, driving action with direct outreach, scaling with email, amplifying through media, and most importantly trusting community to carry the fight. Along the way you will learn the pitfalls to avoid, the importance of gratitude, and why clarity and simplicity turn support into real action.Now Kelly needs his community more than ever. With just one week left to vote, your support will decide the outcome. It takes only ten seconds to cast your vote, and every share amplifies the fight. If this podcast has ever inspired you, taught you, or helped you move the needle in your business, this is the moment to give back. Vote now for The Business Development Podcast in the Business category of the Signal Awards at vote.signalaward.com. Voting is open until October 9th. Vote and share to create a tidal wave of support and help David defeat a giant.Key Takeaways: 1. Awareness is only the first step — posts create visibility but they don't guarantee action.2. Direct outreach drives results — personal messages cut through the noise and spark real movement.3. Clarity matters — a single link and simple instructions remove friction and boost support.4. Equip your community — give them shareable assets, captions, and graphics so helping you is easy.5. Media amplifies your story — but only if you frame it with a compelling narrative worth telling.6. Gratitude fuels momentum — thank people personally and publicly to deepen connection and trust.7. Don't confuse numbers with commitment — likes and comments are not the same as votes or sales.8. Respect boundaries — pushing too hard or spamming can damage relationships you've worked to build.9. At some point you must let go — after doing everything in your power, trust your community to carry it forward.10. Underdogs win with people, not budgets — community is the greatest differentiator against giants.

What does it mean to truly live after hardship? In this inspiring episode, I sit down with Dr. Dawn Mussallem, an integrative physician whose story is as extraordinary as her work.

In this episode of Bootstrap MD, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming shares a powerful lesson from PIMD Con 2025, where Dr. Peter Kim's rock jar demonstration—using rocks, pebbles, sand, and water—illustrated the cost of filling life with trivial tasks instead of meaningful priorities. Reflecting on his decision to prioritize school pickups for his son and a colleague's near-fatal health scare, Dr. Woo-Ming explores how urgency and metrics trap physicians in “sand.” He offers a practical five-step “doctor's orders” plan to schedule big rocks, set boundaries, and reassess priorities, empowering physicians to combat burnout and design sustainable, joy-filled careers. Top 3 Takeaways: Big Rocks First: Schedule non-negotiable priorities like health, family time, and personal purpose before less critical tasks, ensuring they fit into your life's “jar.” Sweep Out the Sand: Identify and eliminate time-wasters like excessive emailing, doom-scrolling, or unproductive meetings by setting boundaries and delegating tasks. Reassess and Reflect: Regularly evaluate your energy, mood, and relationships to ensure your “big rocks” remain protected as life's priorities evolve, preventing existential burnout. About the Show: Bootstrap MD is the ultimate podcast for physician entrepreneurs looking to escape traditional healthcare and control their financial futures.

Practicing gratitude– which is being grateful for the good in our lives– is a fantastic way to feel happy. When we practice gratitude, we can focus on the good things instead of the bad things. Even when something doesn't go our way, we can try to find something positive about the situation. We can also remember to thank the people who bring us goodness– it's a great way to show our appreciation. It's a skill that must be developed, so let's make sure to work on it everyday!
Send us a textMy podcast programming this year is simple – love letters to nature. I invite you to join me in this collaborative project to reweave ourselves to the natural world and each other. Share your love letters with me at fromtheoutsidellc@gmail.com and I will read your loving words to nature on my podcast. How does nature make you feel, how does she sustain you, support you, inspire you, excite you? Read your letters to nature and listen for a response. What wisdom does she offer you? As we profess our deep love and gratitude to our source of life, let us deepen our sense of place, purpose, and sense of belonging.This month, I welcomed the variety of visitors to my garden, the sounds of nature wafting through my screen door on a cooler fall morning, the joy of cutting free a small hummingbird entangled in garden netting, and the awe and wonder of new life as my family welcomed a new baby to our fold. Listen as I read my September love letter to nature. What moments of joy, love, and gratitude did nature offer you in September?

Did you know that being grateful and being a people pleaser are two different things? It can sometimes feel like they're the same, but being a people pleaser means that you are self-sacrificing for someone else, like your parents, for example. There's no sacrifice in feeling or being grateful. So why does it feel like we can't be good daughters if we're not self-sacrificing? People pleasing is more prevalent than you think, especially among first-generation Latinas. Our parents sacrificed so much to get us the best opportunities they could, so sometimes it feels selfish to do anything other than what they want. It can also feel like you can never take risks because you don't want to seem ungrateful for everything they've done for you. So how do we break this habit and choose ourselves without hurting our relationships in the process? In this week's episode, we're sharing a workshop I created for the Understanding People Pleasing Summit with Cora Rennie. People pleasing is a trap, and it will keep you stuck in a self-made cycle of self-sacrifice for way too long. By talking about it, we can identify these habits within ourselves and take the first steps to break out of that cycle. Join me and hundreds of other listeners as we break the people-pleasing cycle and take aligned action now.

Mike Messeroff spent three decades in hospitality and was JetBlue's first intern before swapping corporate partnerships for a life of travel and a career behind the bar. A low point in paradise led him to mindfulness, daily meditation, and ultimately leadership coaching for hospitality executives. Today, he's launching the Self Hospitality Collective, offering bite-sized audio guidance and practical practices for leaders. Susan and Mike talk about meditation, mindfulness, and modern management. What You'll Learned About: • JetBlue's first intern by “accident”? Mike turns a chance aisle chat with the CEO into a career. • Daydreaming of beach life? Mike says you'll pack your baggage either way, so do the inner work first. • Breckenridge paradox: daily skiing + dream town ≠ joy; anxiety became the wake-up call. • “Happiness is uncaused.” (Yes, that line stops the show—and your doom-scroll.) • Self Hospitality = treating yourself like the VIP in your lobby: restocked, respected, and not running on fumes. • Meditation is non-negotiable. Even 3 minutes builds that “magic gap” between trigger and response. • Gratitude hack: you can't be stressed and thankful at the same time. • For the “no-woo” crowd: real-world ROI—lower cortisol, better focus, fewer dish-smashing meltdowns. • Micro-practices for brutal days: one conscious breath, a three-minute reset, a mindful reminder (“I'm here to solve problems”). Our Top Three Takeaways 1. Inner Work Comes Before Outer Change Mike's story shows that changing your surroundings, whether by moving to a beach in the Caribbean or skiing daily in Colorado, doesn't guarantee happiness. Wherever you go, you bring yourself with you. True fulfillment comes from addressing patterns like negative self-talk, stress, or self-medication. External shifts may feel exciting, but without the inner work, they won't resolve deeper struggles. 2. Self-Hospitality Is Essential for Leaders Mike's concept of self hospitality is about treating yourself like your most honored guest. Just as hoteliers go above and beyond for VIPs, leaders should extend that same care inward: practicing consistent meditation (even for just three minutes), cultivating gratitude, setting clear boundaries, and pursuing personal passions. When leaders nurture themselves, they can give from a place of overflow rather than depletion—ultimately benefiting their teams, guests, and organizations. 3. Joy and Happiness Are Our Natural State Mike emphasizes that happiness is “uncaused," meaning we are born joyful, but stress, fear, and external pressures layer over it. Through mindfulness practices like meditation and gratitude, leaders can reconnect with that natural state and create a “magic gap” between stress and response. This not only prevents burnout but also models healthier, more sustainable leadership in an industry prone to overwork and high stress.

Emmy-nominated journalist Julia Boorstin spent years interviewing thousands of executives before discovering something unexpected: the most successful women leaders had no playbook. After 25 years covering business transformation at Fortune and CNBC, Julia set out to understand why women receive only 2% of venture capital despite outperforming their counterparts—and what she found changed everything she thought about leadership. In this conversation with Laurie McGraw, Julia reveals insights from her book "When Women Lead" and the 60 extraordinary women who defied impossible odds. From wearing fake glasses to be taken seriously to discovering that gratitude correlates with long-term decision making, Julia unpacks why there's no single formula for female leadership success—and why that's exactly the point. Key Takeaways: Why vulnerability and transparency matter more than performed strength in uncertain times The surprising link between gratitude and strategic long-term thinking How "turning down your confidence" to gather information leads to better decisions Why the data proves female-led companies outperform—returning profits a year earlier on average The "water supply problem" approach that transforms how you solve any challenge Why communal leadership isn't weakness—it's a statistical predictor of success From the CNBC Changemakers list to her new podcast launching September 30th, Julia continues amplifying voices of women who are rewriting the rules of business. Her message is clear: authenticity isn't about fitting a mold—it's about understanding your unique strengths and leading from that truth.

Sermon Summary – Behind the Veil Part six of a prayer journey series. Focus: moving through each stage of prayer (modeled by tabernacle furniture) to reach the manifest presence of God behind the veil. Tied to the season of the Days of Awe and the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur). The Prayer Journey Thanksgiving (Entering the Gate) Acknowledge dependence on God. Gratitude for daily blessings builds humility and faith. Praise (The Courts) Praise God for His works in Scripture and in personal life. Strengthens confidence before making requests. Brazen Altar (Repentance) Clearing sin and disobedience—both actions committed and duties left undone. Laver (Speaking the Word) Affirming our position in Christ despite our condition. Candlestick (Holy Spirit Illumination) Welcoming the Spirit to renew the mind and guide prayer. Table of Showbread (Truth-telling with God) “Cup of coffee with God”: being fully honest—joys, anger, questions. Example: hard prayer for a loved one to be broken so they might return to God (like the prodigal son). Altar of Incense (Petition) Prayers rise as incense before God (Psalm 141, Revelation 8). Spirit-led petitions avoid selfish, flesh-driven requests. Behind the Veil (The Ark / Manifest Presence) Goal of prayer: intimacy with God, listening more than speaking. Jesus tore the veil, granting direct access—not just distant recognition but true fellowship. Lessons & Applications Manifest vs. Omnipresence: God is everywhere, but He desires to manifest Himself personally to His children. Prayer as Relationship: not “Walmart style” requests, but time invested with God. Hard Prayers: sometimes God calls us to pray for breaking, not blessing, to bring loved ones to repentance. Stillness & Meditation: modern culture overloads us with information; believers must learn to wait in silence before God. Faith & Persistence: Prayer must be effectual (energized by the Spirit), fervent (refusing to be denied), and prevailing (producing results). Biblical Anchors James 5: The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much. Ecclesiastes 5: Draw near to hear rather than offer the “sacrifice of fools.” John 14: Jesus promises to manifest Himself to those who obey His Word. Examples of persistence in prayer: Jacob wrestling, Bartimaeus crying out, the woman with the issue of blood, Zacchaeus climbing the tree. Encouragement & Call Prayer is the greatest access point of power, healing, provision, and presence available on earth. Believers are urged to: Commit more time to prayer. Enter with thanksgiving and praise. Seek not just God's hand but His face. Be patient like Job, consistent like Elijah, and persistent like the saints of old. Final invitation: Unbelievers—come to Christ today. Prodigals—return to the Father. Christians—renew prayer life and spend time behind the veil.

In today's episode, I join Jack Wagoner of The Grateful Podcast to explore what true fulfillment looks like when success on paper leaves you feeling empty. At 31, I had wealth, fame, and my dream marriage, yet I was missing the consistent pursuit of my potential. Jack and I talk about the paradox of gratitude and ambition, the cycle of giving and receiving, and how abundance comes from perspective rather than possessions. We discuss simple but powerful daily practices like saying thank you, finding light and lessons in struggle, and learning to stop, drop, and roll when fear sets in to get out of our own way.
