In today's episode, Gina talks about the importance of embracing imperfection, particularly in contrast to the common tendency of holding yourself to standards of perfection. Giving yourself permission to be yourself and not judging yourself based on your achievements can do wonders for your sense of self-worth and mental health.Stillpoint Fridays is my once-a-week Friday note — a slower, more personal reflection that's different from what I share on the podcast.

Free Guided Meditation for Calming Your Anxious Mind 10-Minute Body-Scan Meditation for AnxietyQuote:Have no fear of perfection. You'll never reach it. —Salvador DaliChapters0:27 Embracing Imperfection10:37 Affirmations for Self-Compassion14:59 The Pursuit of Wisdom Over PerfectionSummaryIn this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, we delve into the concept of wabi-sabi, exploring how embracing imperfection can help alleviate the pressure of striving for perfection. The discussion begins with a reflection on the increasing societal demand for perfection, which can manifest as anxiety and feelings of inadequacy within us. We draw parallels to the music industry, where many artists are gravitating towards the raw authenticity of analog sounds versus the polished finish of digital production. This longing for imperfection invites us to question whether our pursuit of flawlessness is truly beneficial.The conversation encourages listeners to shift their perspective on imperfection, viewing it not as a failing but as a natural part of the journey of self-improvement. It posits that by letting go of the unattainable goal of perfection, we can open the door to self-acceptance and appreciate our experiences as ongoing, evolving processes. Our minds are profoundly shaped by our thoughts and where we choose to focus our attention, suggesting that by embracing imperfection, we can foster a more forgiving inner landscape.I emphasize the relief that can come from giving ourselves permission to simply be ourselves without the weight of perfectionism. The episode provides practical tips on recognizing our limits and establishing boundaries to support our mental health and well-being. It's crucial to incorporate self-care into our daily routines rather than sidelining our health for the sake of achieving more. By identifying our thresholds and maintaining those boundaries, we foster an environment in which we can thrive without succumbing to the pressure of needing to achieve perfection.#WabiSabi, #AnxietyRelief, #Mindfulness, #EmbraceImperfection, #MentalHealthMatters, #SelfLove, #SelfCare, #PersonalGrowth, #Perfectionism, #WellnessJourney, #PositiveAffirmations, #InnerPeace, #StressManagement, #MentalWellness, #SelfCompassion, #JapaneseWisdom, #Healing, #Authenticity, #GrowthMindset, #GraceAndGratitude, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #NervousSystemRegulation, #VagusNerve, #CalmMind, #OvercomingAnxiety, #PanicAttackRecovery, #MentalHealthAwareness, #EndTheStigma, #EmotionalWellness, #SelfHealing, #InnerCalm, #AnxietyWarrior, #Breathe #Gina Ryan #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We are spectacularly good at having ideas and remarkably reluctant to do anything with them. It turns out that the distance between "I've got it!" and "here it is" is not a step but a rather long, occasionally bewildering journey. Not unlike flying a plane. It involves a terrifying amount of fuel, significant faith in invisible forces, and a desperate hope that everything holds together on landing. History's great innovators weren't just bold thinkers; they were stubborn completers. Edison filed hundreds of patents before the lightbulb. Jeff Bezos accidentally invented cloud computing whilst trying to sell books. Remember: Ideas evolve mid-flight — your job is to keep steering Feedback isn't optional; even Van Gogh had his brother Consistency across many ideas beats obsessing over one perfect one Fasten your seatbelt — your ideas deserve an actual destination.

Why beliefs can either cap our potential or push us toward possibility.What you believe about yourself could be holding you back. Fortunately, Nir Eyal says beliefs aren't truths — and you can choose new ones.Eyal is a former lecturer at Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Stanford d.school, a celebrated author, and a renowned expert on human behavior and potential. His latest book, Beyond Belief, reveals how limiting beliefs — like “I'm a bad communicator” — quietly shape what we see, feel, and do. “A belief doesn't have to be true” to limit our potential, he says. But the same holds in reverse: a belief doesn't have to be true to expand who and what we can become. “Beliefs are tools, not truths. It just has to be useful.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Eyal and host Matt Abrahams explore how to identify the beliefs that hold us back — and how to replace them with ones that propel us forward. From keeping a belief journal to practicing perspective-shifting “turnarounds,” Eyal offers practical tips for rewriting the stories we tell ourselves and becoming the people we want to be.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Nir EyalNir's Book: Beyond Belief104.

Our dialogue delves into the intricacies of anxiety and the underlying emotions that often fuel it. I invite listeners to reflect on their relationship with anxiety and how to discern the subtle messages it communicates.A significant focus of our discussion is the Hidden Emotion Model—a technique I learned and refined during my training that unveils the repressed feelings driving anxiety. Dr. Burns eloquently explains how individuals, often conscientious and "nice," suppress emotions like fear, anger, and disappointment, which leads to heightened anxiety. By recognizing and articulating these hidden emotions, individuals can often alleviate their anxiety significantly. Dr. Burns shares a compelling vignette involving a man struggling with panic attacks after receiving unexpected news about parenthood. This example illustrates the necessity of acknowledging uncomfortable emotions to pave the way for healing.Our conversation also touches on the societal stigmas surrounding emotional expression, particularly for those who identify as "nice" people. Dr. Burns and I explore how mental health diagnostics can inadvertently contribute to feelings of shame and inadequacy among patients. It's a powerful reminder that many who battle anxiety face not only internal struggles but external societal pressures that may dictate how they should feel or behave.#Anxiety, #PanicAttacks, #MentalHealth, #CBT, #DrDavidBurns, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #FeelingGood, #FeelingGreat, #Psychology, #Mindfulness, #SelfHelp, #Recovery, #Wellness, #Healing, #StressRelief, #InnerPeace, #MentalWellness, #SelfCare, #Therapy, #Coaching, #EmotionalIntelligence, #NervousSystem, #OvercomingAnxiety, #PanicDisorder, #SocialAnxiety, #MentalHealthAwareness, #EndTheStigma, #GrowthMindset, #Authenticity, #Boundaries, #SelfLove, #IntrusiveThoughts, #OCD, #HealthAnxiety, #MindfulLiving, #Breathwork, #Meditation, #Zen, #Spirituality, #PersonalGrowth, #Resilience, #Empowerment, #HealthyMind, #AnxietyRelief, #StressManagement, #Psychotherapy, #Counseling, #WellnessJourney, #LifeCoaching, #MentalHealthMatters, #AnxietySupportSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

https://teachhoops.com/ Moving players between levels—Varsity, JV, or Freshman—is one of the most politically charged aspects of coaching, yet it is essential for the long-term health of your program. The "Elevator Model" of roster management ensures that players are competing at the level that matches their current skill set and physical maturity. However, to avoid the "parent-coach friction" that often accompanies these moves, you must establish a "Fluidity Policy" during your pre-season meeting. If players and parents understand from Day One that rosters are "living documents" and that a move "down" is a developmental opportunity for more minutes, while a move "up" is a reward for consistent production, you remove the "stigma" and replace it with a "Growth Mindset." A key strategic pillar is "Developmental Priority." Often, a talented sophomore is better served playing 28 minutes at the JV level—where they are the primary ball-handler and "go-to" scorer—than playing 4 minutes of "garbage time" on Varsity. To "win" this transition, you must provide the player with a "Tactical Roadmap." Use your TeachHoops member calls to "audit" your "Swing Player" rotation. When you move a player "down," frame it as a "Leadership Assignment": "We need you to go down and anchor the JV defense so you can learn how to lead a unit." When they move "up," emphasize their "Role Clarity": "Your job on Varsity is to be our elite '3-and-D' specialist." By giving the move a specific purpose, you maintain the player's "Buy-In" and focus. Finally, you must master the "Art of the Mid-Season Evaluation." The "January Lull" is often when rosters stagnate. A great coach is always looking for the "JV Spark"—the player who has outgrown their level and is ready for the "Varsity Speed." When making these moves, utilize "Objective Data" like "Practice Points," "Defensive Deflections," and "Film Grade" to justify the decision. This removes the "perception of favoritism" and reinforces a culture of "Merit-Based Opportunity." By being the "Communicator-in-Chief" of your program's roster, you ensure that every athlete is in the "Sweet Spot" of their development, preparing your entire program to peak during the postseason.

Most people think their relationship problems are about the other person. They're not — they're about an 18-month-old version of you who learned the only way to survive. In this episode, psychotherapist Jessica Baum breaks down why your nervous system is still running a programme it wrote in infancy. Attachment styles — secure, anxious, avoidant, disorganised — aren't personality quirks. They're adaptive strategies your brain built when connection was a matter of survival. The anxious person who chases, the avoidant who disappears, the couple stuck in a loop they can't explain — it all traces back to the same source: early experiences that taught your body what to expect from closeness. Understanding that isn't just interesting. It's the beginning of actually changing it. Your attachment style isn't fixed — it shifts depending on who you're with Co-regulation isn't neediness — it's how the nervous system was designed to heal The goal isn't independence. It's interdependence — being whole and connected If your relationships keep following the same painful script, this episode is where you start rewriting it. SPONSORS

Join Gabrielle Kohlmeier—ABA Commissioner on Women, ex-Verizon Global Head of Legal Innovation & Emerging Solutions, and a leading voice on responsible AI governance and adoption—and Tamara Kraljic, Counsel at Hughes Hubbard & Reed and a leader with the Women's Bar Association of DC, for an International Women's Day conversation on why we all need to be AI literate and how the ABA's 21 Days of AI: A Grit and Growth Mindset Challenge helps move us forward. This episode explores why AI fluency is becoming essential for legal professionals (and everyone!), and how the ABA's bite-sized daily practice Challenge helps lawyers build confidence using AI safely and thoughtfully—even in cautious or regulated environments. We also discuss why closing the gender gap in AI adoption matters: women need to be in that conversation not as a matter of symbolic inclusion but because the quality and equity of the outcomes depend on it.Please note, the positions and opinions expressed by the speakers are strictly their own, and do not necessarily represent the views of their employers, nor those of the D.C. Bar, its Board of Governors or co-sponsoring Communities and organizations.

Most anger isn't about the thing. It's about what the thing means: “Someone just messed with my control.” When your expectations get violated... plans change,d a process breaks, a person does something “unreasonable”. Your nervous system reads it like a little mugging. And then you get reactance: that hot impulse to push back, prove a point, slam the door, unsubscribe from the whole situation. What we look at today is simple, but not easy: trade courtroom mode (“who's wrong?”) for lab mode (“what's true?”): Label the “freedom threat” out loud before you react Swap blame for one clean question: “What assumption just broke?” Redesign the trigger: reduce surprise, increase choice, add clarity Press play and turn your next spike of anger into an experiment that sets you free.

It's easy to say someone's hopeless. The harder part is figuring out how to support them to get to that next level." — Amelia Special Guest: Amelia Hough-Ross.

In this environment, making high-quality decisions is of paramount importance. For this solo episode of the Do Good to Lead Well podcast, I reference groundbreaking research published in MIT Sloane Management Review to identify five traits for effective decision-making, which were derived from a global study of business leaders.The common thread that runs through these five qualities is that they are learnable.

Most high performers chase ceilings: bigger goals, more revenue, bigger stages. Steve argues that what actually determines whether you feel steady in the moments that matter is your floor, your daily standards, mindset, and behaviors when no one is watching. He breaks down how “growth resistance” shows up subtly (protecting identity, reputation, competence), and why the path forward isn't hype or intensity… it's alignment.Key takeaways:Goals as “ceilings” vs. standards as your “floor”Why pressure exposes weak foundations (even when you look prepared)Effort vs. standards: the difference between looking ready and being ready“Growth resistant” behavior: protecting identity after failureGrowth resilience: treating failure as data and adjusting standardsMicrosoft / Satya Nadella “learn-it-all vs know-it-all” as a standards shiftAlignment over intensity: raising your floor to match rising stakesReflection prompt: “What is my floor right now—and is it built for what I'm pursuing?”Links & resources mentionedSatya Nadella / Microsoft culture shift (learn-it-alls vs know-it-alls)Send a textSupport the showConnect with Steve Mellor Stay connected and keep growing with Steve: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-mellor-cc/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/coachstevemellor Book Steve to speak at your next event → www.stevemellorspeaks.com Support the GrowthReady Podcast by leaving a 5-star rating → Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/growthready-podcast/id1406082163 Connect with GrowthReady Join the community and keep your growth journey going: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/wearegrowthready/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/growthreadypodcast/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/growthreadywithcoachstevemellor Official Website - https://growthready.com/ ---- This podcast was produced on Riverside and released via ...

https://teachhoops.com/ Handling criticism is perhaps the most difficult "soft skill" for a basketball coach to master, yet it is essential for long-term survival in the profession. In the digital age, criticism comes from every angle—social media, stands, administration, and even the locker room. To navigate this, you must develop a "Professional Filter." Not all criticism is created equal. You must distinguish between "constructive feedback" (from those who have "skin in the game" and care about the program's success) and "background noise" (from those who lack context or have a personal agenda). When you view criticism as data rather than a personal attack, you can extract the 5% of truth that might actually help you improve your zone offense or your communication style. A key strategy for managing criticism is "Proactive Alignment." Most external critique—especially from parents—is born from a lack of transparency. If you have clearly communicated your "Playing Time Standards" and "Program Non-Negotiables" during the pre-season, you have a "Policy Shield" to lean on when the criticism starts during a January losing streak. When someone questions a decision, refer back to the established standards: "We prioritize defensive deflections and practice attendance for starting roles." This shifts the conversation from your "opinion" to a "shared agreement," de-escalating the emotional intensity and keeping the focus on the athletes' development. Finally, you must master the "Art of the Poised Response." As a leader, your reaction to criticism is being watched by your players. If you become defensive, sarcastic, or "clap back" at critics, you are teaching your players to do the same when they face adversity. Instead, adopt a "Growth Mindset." When a colleague or mentor offers a critique of your late-game management, listen first and ask clarifying questions: "What did you see in that last timeout that I might have missed?" This doesn't mean you have to agree, but it does mean you are committed to being a "lifelong learner." By modeling how to handle "hard truths" with grace, you build a resilient culture that values honesty over ego.

This week, Jen and Pete noodle on a mental framework in which they revisit and recommit, or revise, or replace, or remove the goals they've set for themselves this year (which leaves them feeling re-invigorated, re-energized, and re-inspired).  Specifically, in this episode Jen and Pete talk about: How might we add and consider the context surrounding our goals? How might we reframe a pivot away from a certain goal as not a failure but a learning? What are some tactics to give ourselves more grace in the journey towards our goals?

Turns out you don't learn faster when you're stressed, you learn faster when you're happy! So let's talk about treating your brain like a friend, not a factory worker. Muscles respond to stress with pretty linear upgrades; brains don't. Brains upgrade through meaning, novelty, and attention—especially when something feels like play. That's why memory champions don't “grind” digits: they build absurd stories and mental rooms and suddenly their recall looks like magic. Same with skills. Stress is useful—but mostly as a signal: “avoid that.” If you want real output, your job is to become a better teacher to yourself: make the hard thing interesting enough that you'll come back tomorrow. Turn one task into a game (score it, time it, level it up). Find the “fun entry point” and start there, not with drills. Reduce stress friction: smaller reps, better cues, better environment. Listen in—and pick one thing to make genuinely enjoyable today. SPONSORS
