Drawing from both his professional expertise and personal story of resilience, Anthony shares how cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be applied beyond the therapy room — into the way we think, act, and feel in our everyday lives.We explore how small shifts in thought and behavior can create profound changes in productivity and well-being, especially in a world that often mistakes busyness for progress. Anthony offers practical ways to align mindset with action and shows how reframing, acceptance, and self-care can transform not just how we work, but how we live.Six Discussion PointsThe core principles of CBT and how Anthony distilled them into a simple, visual modelHow self-monitoring and self-assessment connect directly to productivity and personal growthWhy reframing “should” into “could” turns guilt into empowermentThe danger of perfectionism and how embracing imperfection fosters balance and progressThe role of self-care and mindfulness in preventing burnout and building resilienceHow to make CBT principles second nature through consistent reflection and small, mindful actionsThree Connection PointsAnthony's websiteAnthony's bookMy TEDx Talk: “How to Stop Time”Our conversation reminded me how productivity and psychology share the same foundation: awareness and choice.

Jess Fenton explores the art of going straight to the pinnacle in business — bypassing the old, linear ways of working and stepping directly into the highest energetic frequency of your vision.She unpacks the difference between the grooved path and the pinnacle path, revealing how entrepreneurs can work with synchronicity, intuition, and multi-dimensional awareness to collapse time and create from a place of expansion, not effort.Through stories of clients pitching to icons, team dynamics in corporate high-performance, and the link between synchronicity and hope, Jess shows how to hold your business inside the highest frequency — where rejection can't exist, and everything you do becomes its own reward.The difference between the linear verse and the multi-dimensional universe in businessHow to activate “pinnacle energy” and skip incremental growthWhy synchronicity is tied to hope — and how to keep it alive through every dark night of the soulThe invisible mechanics of the subconscious (including the Neville Goddard ladder experiment)Why aiming for the highest version of your work magnetises higher-standard clients and collaborationsHow to become the kind of person who only plays in pinnacle frequencies“Even if the outcome doesn't arrive the way you thought — if you're operating from the pinnacle, the process itself is the reward. That's where the synchronicity lives.”To go deeper 1:1, email jess@goinward.co.ukwww.goinward.co.ukwww.instagram.com/goinward
Brett had a drug dealer's car for 13 days. By day 11, the death threats started coming. This is the reality of building ServiceUp, the "DoorDash for auto repair." Brett literally stole DoorDash's entire playbook—city launches, three-sided marketplace, everything—but discovered even if he got 90% right, 10% of B2C customers can end you. He raised from Tiger just as the firm exploded. The DoorDash partnership that seemed like salvation turned into their worst nightmare. But then they pivoted to B2B and saw their average order value grow 5x overnight."Work-life balance is BS. If you can work seven days a week, you'll fail faster, fix faster, and find product-market fit faster."Why You Should Listen:Why just 10% of your customers can destroy your business How to close funding in the middle of a macro crisisWhy work-life balance is BS if you want to build something bigHow stealing another startup's playbook can lead to 5000% growthWhy your worst customers might actually show you your best pivotKeywords:startup podcast, startup podcast for founders, ServiceUp, Brett Carlson, marketplace startup, B2B pivot, Tiger Global, auto repair tech, fleet management, startup growth00:00:00 Intro00:01:40 Failed auto shop becomes ServiceUp idea00:03:27 Pulling co-founder out of retirement00:09:30 Raising $2M seed from angels00:13:23 Building the MVP in Puerto Rico00:15:01 Early Bay Area operations and getting shops00:17:50 The drug dealer death threat incident00:21:17 Tiger Global loses $8B during Series A00:26:57 DoorDash partnership disaster00:28:36 Pivoting from B2C to B2B fleets00:30:00 Finding product-market fitSend me a message to let me know what you think!

In this episode of The UpWords Podcast, host Susan Smetzer-Anderson sits down with J. Richard Middleton, Emeritus Professor of Biblical Worldview and Exegesis at Northeastern Seminary and Roberts Wesleyan University. With decades of scholarship spanning theology, philosophy, and cultural analysis, Middleton offers a compelling exploration of what it truly means to hold a Christian worldview—and how that concept has evolved, been misunderstood, and often distorted over time.Drawing from his seminal work The Transforming Vision (1984) and his forthcoming book Dancing in the Dragon's Jaws: The Christian Worldview in a Conflicted Age, Middleton challenges listeners to move beyond tribalism, cultural conformity, and rigid doctrinal packages. Instead, he invites us to embrace a biblically rooted, lived orientation toward the world—one that is shaped by grace, community, and spiritual formation.Topics include:The difference between worldview as a lived orientation vs. a set of ideasHow cultural norms have overtaken biblical foundations in many churchesThe role of deconstruction and reconstruction in spiritual growthWhy diversity in Scripture points to a deeper unityPractical questions to help uncover and reshape your worldviewWhether you're a student, pastor, educator, or curious seeker, this episode offers rich insights into how we see the world—and how Scripture invites us to see it differently.

What does it mean to live a life with purpose or dharma?Beyond symptom management, Ayurveda and Yoga point us toward transformation. A connection to spirit that sustains true health.In this episode, host Myra Lewin explores three foundational practices of dharmic living: yagna (sacred offering), daan (generosity and circulation), and tapas (discipline and transformation).

When I first started in property management, things felt very different to how they do today. You didn't really connect with the agency down the road, and you certainly didn't sit down with other property managers for a coffee and a chat. Everyone was guarding their rent rolls, and it was more about competing than sharing.The problem is, working that way can feel pretty lonely. Property management is already a tough job, and without a support network it's easy to burn out or feel like you're the only one facing certain challenges.Thankfully, we're starting to see a real shift. More and more property managers are opening up, collaborating, and building communities that make the work lighter, smarter and far more enjoyable.In this episode I chat with Corinne Forsyth, Head of Property Management at Ray White Beenleigh and Redland Bay, who has been right at the centre of this change. Starting out on the front desk at just 16, she's worked her way through just about every role in the industry. Now she leads a team of 10 and plays an active part in creating spaces for property managers to connect from local “Coffees and Conversations” meetups to a brand new industry book club. “ You can get further in life by working with people rather than constantly being pitted against each other, because that's a pretty miserable way to have a career.” - Corrine ForsythWe cover:Why collaboration over competition in property management is helping to lift industry standards and reduce burnoutHow to host a Coffees and Conversations event that brings property managers together and builds a supportive local networkThe retention benefits of encouraging your property management team to network, learn and grow outside the officeHow Corinne's experience in sales and overcoming burnout shaped her confidence and leadership in property managementWhy consistent property management training and external voices can improve your team's performance and client serviceHow the PM Book Club is creating a new space for property managers to connect, share ideas and focus on self development.Practical BDM strategies that free up time, improve data collection and drive sustainable rent roll growthWhy business owners need to see property management as the true asset of their agency and how this mindset shift can increase long term value.Kylie's Resources:Property Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchool Digital Marketing School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalschool That Property Mum Courses: https://www.thatpropertymum.com.au/courses/ The PM Accelerate Membership: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/accelerate Book a Strategy Call with Kylie: https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/coaching-call Kolmeo: https://kolmeo.com/ Sensor Global: https://sensorinsure.com/

Where are you giving your power away—and how can you take it back? In this powerful solo episode, our very own Jessica Gill explores one of the most foundational themes in manifestation: maintaining self-worth in the in-between. She explores why self-doubt often shows up as the “final boss” before your next level, how the uncomfortable middle ground is actually preparing you to hold the new, and the small ways you can build confidence by showing up for yourself daily. From unblocking hidden fears of unlikability to shifting perfectionism into self-compassion, this conversation will remind you that your power and magic have been with you all along, and even the most challenging moments serve as an initiation to meet them.Find the complete show notes here -> https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: HOW TO MANIFEST by Lacy Phillips (with exercises by Jessica Gill) Coming October 21st!Pre-Order NOW Join the Pathway MembershipUse code EXPANDED for 20% off your first month!Join our membership to access the TBM Money Challenge Now Live!

THE VIBEwith Kelly Cardenas presents The scroll is too real. One minute I'm watching Nate Diaz choke out Conor McGregor, then Kirk Cameron pops up, then a “10 million views or your money back” promise slides in, and before I know it—Juvenile has me quoting lyrics instead of focusing on what matters most. Sound familiar?In this episode, I unpack how distractions creep in—through reels, TikTok, Instagram, and even our own habits—and how Proverbs 28 cuts through the noise with clarity and focus. You'll hear insights from a conversation with high-level consultant Nancy Lee on leadership, communication, and uncovering hidden power in organizations. We also break down the difference between wants and desires, how focus creates peace and order, and why distractions never lead to real results.Whether you're a business owner, executive, or someone who just feels pulled in a thousand directions daily—this episode will give you practical, faith-driven tools to cut distractions, build discernment, and focus on what truly matters.

What if the missing piece in your spiritual journey isn't more meditation apps, rituals, or retreats—but something as practical as spiritual intelligence? In this enlightening and surprisingly fun episode, Will & Karen sit down with Dr. Yosi Amram, licensed clinical psychologist, CEO leadership coach, best-selling author, and pioneering researcher in the field of spiritual intelligence. With roots in mystical Judaism, Buddhism, Kundalini Yoga, and the Diamond Approach, Yosi bridges ancient wisdom and modern science to show how spirituality can actually be lived...right here, right now. From gratitude practices that shift your heart in seconds, to reframing life's red lights as blessings in disguise, to uncovering your evolving sense of purpose, Yosi provides listeners with both timeless insight and practical tools they can start using today. Along the way, expect plenty of laughs, like what happens when Will compares spiritual bypassing to Monty Python's “it's just a flesh wound” moment, or when Karen presses Yosi on who really has the higher spiritual intelligence. Spoiler: the answer might surprise you. By the end of this episode, you'll discover that cultivating spiritual intelligence doesn't require quitting your job, moving to a monastery, or renouncing Netflix binges. It's about small, conscious choices that deepen self-awareness, expand compassion, and connect you to a sense of purpose, while making daily life a whole lot more peaceful (and even joyful).
