Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
We meet an unusual hiker this week. Ken Posner has been a long-distance runner and hiker over the years, yet he has gradually morphed into a barefoot runner and hiker. Ken and I discuss this–to me–bizarre footwear choice, and he makes a compelling case for the advantages of barefoot walking. Ken has also taken on the fascinating project of “The Grid” in New York's Catskill Mountains, whereby he hikes each of over 30 mountains in every month of the year. This entails over 400 ascents, and the ability to see those mountains in changing weather and terrain as the year develops. Ken has written a terrific book about his pursuit of “The Grid,” which you can find here at Chasing the Grid: An Ultrarunner's Physical and Spiritual Journey in Pursuit of the Ultimate Mountain Challenge . You can learn more about Ken and his barefoot walking at his website, Barefoot Ken and the Long Brown Path . I used my hike last year on the South West Coast Path in the UK to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters %. I hope you want to support this critical mission. Don't forget. Our entire series of videos from our Woods Hole Weekend in 2022 is now FREE and available at my YouTube page at Woods Hole Weekend - Trailer There, you'll find all sorts of tips and tricks that our guests took away from the weekend that helped them with their own hikes this year.

SummaryIn this engaging conversation, I have an amazing discussion with Dave Varney and his son David Varney as they discuss their experiences with running and hiking, including Dave's recent Bryce Canyon 50 miler and the challenging Rim to Rim to Rim trek in the Grand Canyon. They share insights on the best seasons for outdoor activities, the importance of personal enjoyment in running, and the healing power of nature. The discussion highlights the bond between father and son as they explore the beauty of the outdoors together. Follow Dave and David on their YouTube channel, “Take a Hike”. This is a public episode.

Chrissy Schubert and her daughter Ady will be attempting a 250-mile section of the Appalachian Trail next year. No big deal, you may think. Think again. Ady is afflicted by profound autism, communicates through writing, and has a heart as big as the trail itself. The adversity that Ady and her family have overcome during her earlier years has strengthened their faith and helped so many others along the way. These links each tell a short story or speak to the way in which Ady is triumphing in life as she faces her teenage years.

The fastest increases are hitting places like Miami, Sacramento, and Jacksonville, where wind and wildfire risks are high.

New York City Rent stabilized apartments are getting a price hike. Starting tomorrow, renters will have a 3% increase on one-year leases and a 4.5% rise on two-year leases. This applies to about 1 million apartments across the city. New York City is looking to secure millions of dollars in a settlement from Purdue Pharma, the makers of Oxycontin, to tackle the ongoing opioid crisis. WFUV's Xenia Gonikberg tells us more about what it means for the city. As New York state opens the door to full-scale casinos in the five boroughs, millionaires, celebrities, and political insiders are staking their bets in what's seen as a high stakes gamble for the city's future.

Why are mattress prices set to jump $375 overnight? Discover how new tariffs could shake up your business and what retailers can do to stay ahead.In this episode of The FAM Podcast, Mark Kinsley unpacks the jaw-dropping impact of the newly announced 30% tariff on upholstered furniture—on top of already soaring steel and lumber tariffs. If you're a mattress retailer, sleep industry pro, or just care about your bedroom budget, this is a must-watch. Mark reveals specifics: a 50% steel tariff could push adjustable base prices up by $150 wholesale—meaning a $375 price hike for consumers. With Canadian lumber tariffs expected to rise to 27%, the pressure is mounting on all fronts.But it's not all doom and gloom: Mark shares how top retailers are adapting, the truth behind the headlines, and why “terrified by tariffs” is the wrong mindset.

Stephen Grootes speaks to Prof Samson Mamphweli, Head of the Department of Science, Technology and Innovation’s Energy Secretariat at SANEDI, and Chris Yelland, managing director, EE Business Intelligence, about the government's investigation into South Africa’s electricity prices. Mamphweli explains that the review, led by SANEDI, is examining whether tariffs are fair and cost-reflective, with particular focus on fixed charges that hit poorer households hardest. In other interviews, Verona Pillay, Lead Technical Advisor at Financial Services, chats about the looming affordability crisis as South Africans face double-digit medical aid premium hikes in 2026. Pillay warns that rising healthcare costs are outpacing salaries, forcing households to cut cover or opt out entirely, and stresses the need for innovative solutions to keep medical aid within reach for consumers.

Andrea Samadi revisits her 2019 conversation with neuroleadership pioneer Friederike Fabritius to explore practical neuroscience strategies for better productivity, well-being, and workplace happiness. On this episode, we'll learn: ✔ Why only 20% of people feel passionate about their jobs, and what we can do to change that. ✔ How to use neuroscience to reach peak performance or flow with your work. Neuroscientist and neuroleadership pioneer Friederike Fabritius shows us how three simple ingredients—FUN, FEAR, and FOCUS—can help us find flow and peak performance at work. We'll also explore why men and women often respond differently to stress, how to identify your unique neurosignature, and practical ways to design a workplace (and a life) that helps your brain thrive ✔ Learn the three key ingredients for flow—fun, fear (challenge), and focus—how the stress–performance curve affects apathy and burnout. ✔ Why tailoring roles to individual neurosignatures (dopamine, serotonin, testosterone, estrogen) can unlock peak performance. Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. For today's Episode 373, we continue our journey into our mind with the next interview review. Just a reminder-this review series began back with Episode 366[i], where in Part 3 we discovered an important lesson: if we don't like our results—or what we see on the outside—we need to shift our mindset and look within. True change always begins on the inside. We moved onto EP 369[ii] we learned how to Rewire our Brain with Dr. Dawson Church and his Bliss Brain Meditations, and then EP 370[iii] with John Medina's Brain Rules, where we reviewed how important this understanding of neuroscience is, especially connected to education, teaching and learning. Next we went deeper into our mind and brain with EP 371 and 72 where we with clinical professor of psychiatry from UCLA's School of Medicine, Dr. Daniel J Siegel and his Mindsight concept, which is the same idea as Theory of Mind, or seeing the mind in another. All of these episodes are helping us to further sharpen of minds and brains, and connect better with others, for improved productivity and success in our work and personal lives. For today's EP 373, we go back to EP 27[iv], recorded October 2019, with pioneer in neuroleadership, neuroscientist, Friederike Fabritius[v], from Germany. On this episode, we covered her book, The Leading Brain: Neuroscience Hacks to Work Smarter, Better and Happier. Friederike returned again to the podcast, for EP 258[vi] recorded in November 2022 advancing our conversation with her next book, The Brain Friendly Workplace. Both of these interviews covered important tips that I think we should all take into consideration to be happier, and therefore, more productive at work. Going along with our theme-that if we don't like what's going on outside of ourselves, let's dive deeper into understanding how our brain and minds work. Which brings us back to FRIEDERIKE FABRITIUS, MS, is a neuroscientist and pioneer in the field of neuroleadership. She trained at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research and is an alumna of McKinsey & Company (helping organizations to create change). Friederike delivers brain-based leadership programs to Fortune 500 executives and organizations around the globe to transform how they think, innovate, and navigate change. I'm always looking for productivity tips that we can all use, and it's clear that stress in our workplaces is at an all-time high, globally. We know that “2/3 of people report being stressed at work, to the point they can't sleep at night”[vii] and in our first clip, Friederike reports that “only 20% of people feel passionate about their jobs” and that “40% of people never experience FLOW in their jobs.” I think there has to be another way to find balance here. VIDEO 1 Click Here to Watch Let's listen to Friederike's clip on: Why FUN, FEAR, and FOCUS Matter for Flow & Peak Performance “Only 20% of people feel passionate about their jobs. That's insane. And 40% of people never experience FLOW in their jobs. And (she thinks) it can be that simple. That everyone can be happy at their jobs. All you need are three simple things. (Friederike calls them ) FUN, FEAR, and FOCUS. And it has to do with a certain mix of neurochemicals in our brain. When we are having fun at work (not the after work party kind of fun) where you have fun after the work is done. I'm thinking of having fun related to the task at hand. And when we are having fun, our brains release a neurochemical called dopamine. Dopamine is a real brain booster. It makes you think faster. It helps you to do everything a bit speedier and better, and makes us more creative.”

Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
This week, we have a little change of pace. I attended the Woods Hole weekend last week as a presenter, and I came away with friendships, more knowledge, and a decent amount of humble pie as I savored the experience. My Dana came with me and experienced a little of what I experience on trail. She hiked into our campsite at Dismal Falls, then camped for her first ever night in a tent in the woods, before hiking back out the following morning. Our sessions at Woods Hole were informative, and we found a bunch of people ready to learn, to share, and to listen. We're all lucky to be part of such a community. Last week was also the culmination of our Mighty BLue Class of 2025, as Beth and Andrew climbed Katahdin after finishing off the 100 Mile Wilderness. We reflected on those last days just yesterday. As you can see below, they took notice of me when I suggested that they should consider their Katahdin “pose” before they reached the brown sign. I used my hike last year on the South West Coast Path in the UK to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters %.

Welcome to the Find Your Fierce Podcast, where you will discover your fierce, unlock an unstoppable mindset, build unbreakable courage, and completely transform how you show up every single day. I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today. In this powerful episode of Find Your Fierce, I'm pulling back the curtain on a cycle so many of us know too well—the one where you start strong, life throws a curveball (or ten), and that familiar inner critic whispers, “See? You can't do this.” If you've ever felt like your body or your hormones are working against you, consider this your permission slip to breathe, believe, and begin again—right where you are. We're talking about more than just willpower or routines. This episode is about breaking free from burnout, rewriting your inner narrative, and creating strength and vitality from the inside out—especially through the lens of perimenopause and beyond. Inside the episode: 01:51 – Why perimenopause isn't about chasing “more”—it's about creating peace, strength, and vitality so you can show up fully for your life and those you impact. 02:41 – You're not stuck. No matter what your past looks like, you can rebuild your health, reclaim your energy, and live with strength and joy. 05:19 – That feeling of being stuck in a loop—ready to change, then life happens. Sound familiar? 07:05 – Sarah's story: navigating perimenopause, trying all the programs, and ending up overwhelmed and doubting herself. 08:54 – The powerful intersection of belief and biology—how your thoughts shape your health, and how to make that science work for you. 13:57 – Foundational “power moves” to support both mindset and biology, starting today. 19:05 – Mindset shifts that silence the inner critic—from “I always fail” to “Every step counts.” 21:53 – Bonus strategies to fuel your body and mind so you can live a fierce, purpose-driven life. Key Takeaway: Staying stuck is a choice. Every time you let that voice win, you're choosing to stay in the loop. But there's hope. Breaking free is also a choice. You can choose to stop treating your life like a checklist that you're failing at. -Jill Allen Stop waiting for your hormones to settle or for the perfect moment to finally show up. Stop believing the lie that you're not capable because here's the truth. You are equipped. You are called and you are worthy of a life that feels alive, not just survived.

Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
Glenn Sweitzer, designer and filmmaker, is our guest today. Glenn's fascinating back story takes in working with Disney, designing artwork for Tim McGraw and others, then telling stories through film, before ending up on the Appalachian Trail, discovering and sharing stories along the way. Glenn is a natural raconteur with an eye for detail, and has produced an award-winning Appalachian Trail movie, Trail Mix, that is very evocative of my time out on trail, so there should be plenty for you all to enjoy as he hikes the trail and meets other storytellers along the way. Check out the trailer to Trail Mix here. Local Folk: Trail Mix - Finding Yourself on the Appalachian Trail Glenn has recognized the healing properties of trail hiking and has formed a 501c3 called the Trail Please Foundation, see that clip here. Trails Please Beth and Andrew are within spitting distance of Katahdin, well into the 100 Mile Wilderness, where they met a previous Might Blue Class of member, Bobby Campbell, or Sloggy.
