Most people have a pelvic floor, yet few understand how it actually functions or why it plays such a critical role in issues like sex, incontinence, and persistent pain.   Dr. Andrew Fix is joined by pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Katie Sasser for an honest and informative deep dive into a topic that affects everyone but rarely gets talked about. Dr. Sasser explains what the pelvic floor is, how it supports essential functions like bladder control and sexual health, and why dysfunction in this area is more common and more fixable than most people realize. From incontinence and pelvic pain to postpartum recovery and erectile dysfunction, this episode covers the wide-ranging symptoms that pelvic floor therapy can help resolve.   Dr. Sasser shares the five key functions of the pelvic floor and challenges the stigma that keeps so many people silent about their symptoms. Whether it's leaking during a workout, discomfort during sex, or clenching your core out of habit or stress, she breaks down the connection between everyday experiences and pelvic health. You'll also learn why stress, jaw tension, and even scrolling on your phone in the bathroom can throw things off and what you can do to start reconnecting with your body. If you've ever felt dismissed or confused about what's happening below the belt, Dr. Fix and Dr. Sasser's discussion offers encouragement and tools to start feeling better.   Quotes “You mentioned that a lot of women seek out this care. I actually think that men, if this area is affected, are way better at seeking out care for themselves. So things start to impact the penis, it is like, we got to handle this ASAP. The pelvic pain, for sure. Like if you have a pelvis, this applies.” (08:03 | Dr. Katie Sasser) “If you go to pelvic floor therapy and it doesn't feel like a safe space, you should find a new pelvic PT.” (30:29 | Dr. Katie Sasser) “We don't need to be clenching. And we do that, you know, women are taught to brace their core and hold their tummy in… and I'm like, Hey, you gotta let that stuff hang out.” (41:04 | Dr. Katie Sasser) “We are really good at just walking in and just surviving each day and just being so disconnected from our bodies.” (44:50 | Dr. Katie Sasser) “Being a mom is hard. Going through menopause is really hard. Being weak and in those phases of life is even harder.” (47:12 | Dr. Katie Sasser)   Links Connect with Dr. Katie Sasser: https://physioroomco.com/team/dr-katie-sasser/   Dr. Katie Sasser is a physical therapist with over a decade of experience and a deep passion for pelvic health. A graduate of the University of Missouri with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy and a Master's in Education, she blends physical care with mental well-being to support women holistically. Now practicing at Physio Room in Colorado, she specializes in treating pelvic floor issues like leaking, hip and back pain, prolapse, and postpartum recovery. As a mom of four, she understands the physical and emotional demands of motherhood and is committed to helping women regain strength, confidence, and a pain-free life.

Curiosity is the leadership skill that helps you regulate your nervous system, interrupt fear loops, and make conscious choices in real time.   This episode is part 2 of the Emotional Self-Regulation for Leaders series, where Sarah Lockwood is joined again by Marina Suholutsky, the founder of PurposeBuilt, and Beck Sydow, the founder of HumanKind Business Leaders, to discuss how curiosity plays an important role in nervous system regulation and managing emotions. They break down how fear contracts our experience and narrows our view, while curiosity invites expansion and presence. When leaders learn to pause and ask questions like “What else is true?” or “What story am I telling myself right now?”, they create access to agency, opening up space to shift out of reactivity and into conscious, grounded response.   Marina and Beck offer tools that don't require time away from work or structured rituals. These moments of emotional awareness can happen mid-meeting, mid-sentence, or mid-meltdown. Whether it's noticing your peripheral vision, softening your tone, or naming what's happening in the room, curiosity becomes a live practice that leaders can use to stay connected to themselves and others. The discussion also explores how modeling this curiosity builds team trust and strengthens leadership presence. For founders who want to lead with more ease and intention, this episode is an invitation and a toolkit.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Curiosity as a Tool for Emotional Mastery 01:24 Using Curiosity to Shift from Fear to Possibility 02:55 How Curiosity Regulates the Nervous System 04:32 Interrupting Autopilot Responses with Better Questions 06:12 Building Agency Through Conscious Choice 09:59 Real-Time Techniques for Managing Emotions 12:34 Somatic Practices for Curiosity and Expansion 15:23 Leading with Curiosity in High-Stakes Moments 16:48 Asking Open-Ended Questions That Invite Collaboration 19:31 Why Curiosity Reflects True Leadership Confidence   Links Connect with Beck Sydow: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/becksydow/ HumanKind Business Leaders: https://www.humankindbusinessleaders.com/   Connect with Marina Suholutsky: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marina-suho/ PurposeBuilt: www.purposebuilt.io   Connect with Sarah Lockwood: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lockwoodsarah/ Website: https://hivecast.fm   Connect with The Conscious Entrepreneur: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/conscious-entrepreneur/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conscious_entrepreneur_summit/  Website: http://www.consciousentrepreneur.us  HiveCast.fm is a proud sponsor of The Conscious Entrepreneur Podcast.

Why were there still no suits that worked for movement and looked good too? What would happen if they applied everything they knew about fit, fabric, and function to a category that had barely evolved? That spark of an idea eventually became a focused product line, a growing team, and a brand that's now seen on Olympic athletes and Gwyneth Paltrow alike.Laura and Shannon share what it looked like to build their DTC business from the ground up using their own money, the value of starting small and negotiating smart, and how they've stayed committed to growth that's intentional and sustainable.

When your annual physical feels more like a checklist for insurance than an actual look at your health, it's a sign that something's off.   In this episode, Dr. Andrew Fix shares a personal story that hits a nerve for a lot of people - what happens when you go to the doctor expecting care, and instead walk away feeling like a box that got checked. What's the point of a wellness visit if no one's actually trying to prevent anything? Why are simple requests for lab work met with roadblocks? And how did we get to a place where medical decisions are shaped more by insurance codes than by what a patient needs?   Dr. Fix walks through his recent experience with a routine checkup and why it left him so frustrated and also more motivated than ever to remind people that your health is your responsibility. This episode isn't about blaming doctors but about recognizing the system we're all working within and deciding to take a more active role in how we show up for our own health. If you've ever walked out of a medical appointment feeling confused, dismissed, or unsure of what just happened, this one will hit close to home.   Quotes “What's the point of coming here to do a physical exam, coming here to do a preventative wellness checkup if we're not gonna check anything, right?” (06:30 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “All of the decisions that are made in those appointments are based on the insurance, not based on the individual.” (07:55 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “You need to be the one to police your own healthcare. You need to be the one that asks the questions, drives the conversation, suggests the things that you think are important, like a lab test, for example.” (08:51 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “It just blows my mind that we can't even test for things without labeling somebody with a diagnosis.” (09:37 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “If you rely on the doctor to keep you healthy, it's pretty likely you're going to be unhealthy.” (10:45 | Dr. Andrew Fix)   Links SideKick Tool: https://bit.ly/4a6CqJS   Movemate:

Fear isn't the enemy of great leadership. Ignoring it is.   How often do you walk into a meeting already bracing for impact? Or catch yourself shrinking back in a moment where you meant to lead with clarity? Sarah Lockwood sits down with Beck Sydow, the founder of HumanKind Business Leaders, and Marina Suholutsky, the founder of PurposeBuilt, for a conversation on emotional self-regulation, fear in business, and the kind of inner work that makes better leadership possible.   They explore how fear lives in the body, how it shows up in the boardroom, and why most founders are still operating from old survival patterns without realizing it. You'll hear why simply pushing through isn't a strategy and how learning to notice your internal state (tight shoulders, shallow breath, reactive thinking) can open the door to more aligned decisions. Beck and Marina walk through tools for getting out of autopilot, including body scans, self-inquiry, and what they call “active choice,” the skill of pausing just long enough to shift out of fear and back into presence.   This doesn't just explain why inner work matters. It shows you how to begin. Whether you're leading a team, building a company, or trying to show up more fully for your own vision, this is the kind of episode that gets under the surface and invites you to lead from a deeper, steadier place.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Emotional Self-Regulation in Leadership 02:19 Why Fear and Suffering Matter for Founders 05:03 How the Amygdala Shapes Fear in Business 06:08 Welcoming Fear as a Tool, Not a Threat 10:08 Tools for Recognizing and Naming Fear 14:06 The Leadership Power of Softening and Owning Fear 18:13 Making Active Choices to Lead with Awareness   Links Connect with Beck Sydow: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/becksydow/ Humankind Business Leaders: https://www.humankindbusinessleaders.com/   Connect with Marina Suholutsky: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marina-suho/ PurposeBuilt: www.purposebuilt.io   Connect with Sarah Lockwood: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lockwoodsarah/ Website: https://hivecast.fm   Connect with The Conscious Entrepreneur: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/conscious-entrepreneur/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conscious_entrepreneur_summit/  Website: http://www.consciousentrepreneur.us  HiveCast.fm is a proud sponsor of The Conscious Entrepreneur Podcast.

Resentment gets a bad rap, but what if it's actually a guidepost?   This episode is a look inside one of my recent Catalyst Studio mentoring sessions, where a brilliant practitioner found herself loving the work… and hating how it made her feel. Sound familiar? She wasn't burned out, yet, but the resentment was building. And it wasn't loud. It was quiet, chronic, and easy to ignore. Until it wasn't.   We talked through where that resentment was coming from, how it tied to people-pleasing, guilt around pricing, and the belief that overdelivering somehow proves your worth. We named it. We mapped it. And then we got to work.   Inside this episode, I share the tools and scripts I gave her to start protecting her energy and time, without shrinking or apologizing. We talk about boundaries (internal and external), membership models, and why policies aren't just for your practice… they're for your passion.   If you've been carrying silent resentment, feeling overextended, or struggling to hold your own boundaries, this one's for you.   Let's talk about what needs to shift, before burnout makes the decision for you.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Resentment as a Burnout Warning Sign 05:00 The Pressure to Be Liked and Its Hidden Costs 08:13 Scripts for Saying No 10:12 Public vs. Private Boundaries 15:05 Self-Abandonment and Internal Boundaries 16:10 Practicing Discomfort 18:00 How to Spot Quiet Resentment 20:14 Building Structure for Sustainable Care 22:04 Final Reflections and the Catalyst Quiz   Links https://3nb09zv7070.typeform.com/archetype  https://drlarasalyer.com/shop  https://rightbrainrescue.com/p/membership-magic-design-your-3-tier-functional-medicine-membership-to-grow-and-scale https://drlarasalyer.com/2025/07/11/episode-154-the-big-comeback-ten-rules-that-changed-my-practice-and-life/    Connect with Dr. Lara Salyer:  Website: https://drlarasalyer.com The Catalyst Way: https://drlarasalyer.com/catalyst Instagram: @drlarasalyer Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drlarasalyer Linked-In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drlarasalyer/ YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/DrLaraSalyer TikTok: @Creativity.Doctor     Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Some days feel heavier than others. Whether it's a personal heartbreak or a tragedy in the news, the weight of the world can be a lot to carry. And if you're someone who feels deeply, it's not always clear how to keep moving forward.    In this episode, Leslie Randolph offers a thoughtful perspective on what it means to live with sadness, anger, and grief without letting them take over. She shares how self-confidence plays a role even in the hardest moments, not as a way to power through or shut emotions down, but as the quiet willingness to feel it all. What if confidence isn't about being fearless or upbeat, but about staying present when things are messy?

Most of us have figured out how to hold it all together when things feel heavy, but what about when life feels good? Corinne Morahan opens up about a quiet tension that many high-achieving women experience: the discomfort that comes with ease. She shares how years of stress, pressure, and responsibility can condition us to feel safer in chaos than in calm, and how that pattern can quietly limit the good we allow in whether it's love, rest, success, or connection. If joy feels unfamiliar or fleeting, there's probably a reason.   Corinne talks about her own process of learning to receive and hold more of the good stuff. She breaks down the nervous system's role in this work, offers practical tools like EFT tapping, and challenges the idea that happiness needs to be earned through struggle. Have you ever caught yourself downplaying something great? Do you feel more equipped to survive than to celebrate? This episode invites you to notice those patterns and gently create space for more ease, more peace, and more of what you've always wanted.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Holding More Pain Than Joy 02:48 Building Capacity for Pleasure and Joy 03:54 Why We Normalize Struggle 04:26 Creating Success from Alignment and Ease 05:29 The Nervous System's Role in Receiving Good 07:26 Practical Tools to Expand Your Capacity for Ease 09:45 Making Celebration a Daily Practice 11:35 Learning to Trust the Sustainability of Goodness 12:48 Reflecting on the Good You May Be Brushing Off   Links Feeling stuck in your career, business, or what's next?

What if rehab wasn't a step back but a smarter way forward, especially after injury, pregnancy, or both?   Dr. Andrew Fix sits down with Dr. Jessie Czarnecki, physical therapist, weightlifting coach, and fellow clinician at PhysioRoom, for a conversation about strength training through life's most demanding seasons including injury recovery, pregnancy, and postpartum. Drawing from her own ACL injury and postpartum rehab experience, Jessie shares how her approach challenges outdated advice and fear-based restrictions around lifting, especially for women.   They discuss why strength training should be part of the rehab process, not something to avoid, and how Olympic lifting translates to everyday functional strength. Jessie also shares how she's helping more clinicians and coaches integrate barbell movements into recovery plans through her Barbell Rehab Weightlifting Certification.   Quotes “It's not necessarily the training that is the bad thing. It's what our bodies are prepared for versus what our bodies are not prepared for.” (12:15 | Dr. Jessie Czarnecki) “Making sure that how they're approaching this new changes to their body, that they're doing it in a way that makes the most sense for their lifestyle, taking into account what their work is like, what their activity is like. Every single person is different, so there's not one blanket recommendation you can make for nutrition across the board.” (23:50 | Dr. Jessie Czarnecki) “It's more than just talking to them and telling them what I know. It's more about showing them how they can connect these changes to how they currently train and reconnecting with their body, feeling certain muscles in what they're doing, feeling certain movement patterns and building ownership of their movement with their own body.” (28:42 | Dr. Jessie Czarnecki) “Being pregnant or postpartum is hard, but being pregnant, postpartum and weak is harder.” (47:45 | Dr. Jessie Czarnecki)   Links Connect with Dr. Jessie Czarnecki: https://www.instagram.com/dr.jessie.dpt/?hl=en https://barbellrehab.com/brw-certification/   SideKick Tool: https://bit.ly/4a6CqJS   Movemate:

He breaks down the impact of the nearly century-old Railway Labor Act, the corporate strategy of dragging out negotiations, and why change may have to come from within the union rather than through new legislation. He also explains what's at stake in the proposed contract, including the controversial 480-hour healthcare requirement, and why this moment feels different.Michael and Ken talk about the tension, the strategy, and the reality of dealing with a CEO who, in Ken's words, “is not a people person.” They also push back against assumptions about so-called concessions, clarify the role of financial analysts and legal teams during talks, and reflect on the human cost of delayed agreements.If you've ever wondered why it takes so long for workers to get what they're owed, or what really happens behind closed doors, this conversation pulls back the curtain.

Where does your money sleep at night, and is it working for the kind of world you want to live in?   Jennifer Kenning was managing the wealth of high-net-worth families by day and volunteering with unhoused communities in Los Angeles by night. That contrast raised a question that's stuck with her ever since: What if capital could be a force for good, without giving up returns? Now the CEO and co-founder of Align Impact, Jennifer leads a registered investment advisory firm managing over $750 million.    Jennifer joins Sarah Lockwood to talk about values-based investing, conscious capitalism, and how we can all, regardless of portfolio size, be more intentional about where and how our money is working. Jennifer explains why impact investing isn't charity, how ESG works (and where it falls short), and the practical steps anyone can take to align their investments with their values. She shares examples of funding solutions in climate change, affordable housing, sustainable agriculture, and why investing in women and underrepresented founders creates ripple effects that go far beyond profit. She also reflects on her leadership as the outgoing president of EO Colorado, the power of servant leadership, and how Align's commitment to being a B Corp shapes the way they do business.   If you're an entrepreneur rethinking how your capital is allocated, or simply curious about whether your investments align with your intentions, Sarah and Jennifer's conversation will help you take a more conscious, empowered role in shaping your financial impact.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Jennifer Kenning's Path to Impact Investing 03:15 Breaking the Myth: Do Values-Based Investments Sacrifice Returns? 07:34 How Align Measures Real-World Impact 10:29 Aligning Your 401(k) and Business Capital With Your Values 18:07 Why Align Impact Became a Certified B Corp 22:11 Bringing an Impact Lens to EO Colorado 25:15 Leading Peers and Evolving as a Servant Leader 30:05 Defining the Hopeful Pioneer and Investing for 2030 35:45 Staying Grounded: Purpose, Practice, and Long-Term Vision 38:06 Advice for Founders Committed to Conscious Capitalism 39:39 Empowerment Through Financial Awareness   Links Connect with Jennifer Kenning: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennkenning/ Website: https://www.alignimpact.com/    Connect with Sarah Lockwood: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lockwoodsarah/ Website: https://hivecast.fm   Connect with The Conscious Entrepreneur: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/conscious-entrepreneur/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conscious_entrepreneur_summit/  Website: http://www.consciousentrepreneur.us      HiveCast.fm is a proud sponsor of The Conscious Entrepreneur Podcast.

Some people will resist your boundaries. That doesn't mean you're doing it wrong.   In this replay episode, I sit down with psychotherapist and Boundary Boss author Terri Cole for a conversation that so many of you have been asking for: how to set boundaries with a narcissistic parent. Terri doesn't sugarcoat it. She names what's hard, calls out the behaviors you might be normalizing, and gives you language and frameworks that actually work, even when you're dealing with someone who refuses to respect your limits.   We talk about her “three boundary offenders” framework (first-timers, repeat offenders, and destroyers), how to enforce boundaries without being rigid or resentful, and why narcissists in particular see your limits as a threat to their control. If you've ever had someone use guilt, emotional blackmail, or even faux-concern (“are you okay? you seem unstable…”) to manipulate you into staying small, this conversation is for you.   We also talk about the long-term impact of growing up with a narcissistic parent—including codependency, emotional triggers that don't match the moment, and why so many adult children end up feeling deeply unknown in their closest relationships.   If you're ready to shift the dynamic and protect your peace without losing yourself in the process, this episode is a powerful place to start. There's nothing wrong with you, and it's not too late to make a change.   Episode Breakdown 00:00 Introduction 02:08 What Healthy Boundaries Actually Are 05:03 Why Boundaries Fail Without Enforcement 08:24 The Three Types of Boundary Offenders 19:02 Why Narcissists React Differently to Boundaries 21:22 Common Manipulation Tactics Narcissists Use 33:15 How Narcissistic Parents Impact Adult Relationships 41:02 Signs You Were Raised by a Narcissistic Parent 47:12 Gaslighting, Triangulation, and Emotional Violations   Links Connect with Terri Cole: terricole.com/workshop terricole.com/fatherwound  https://boundarybossbook.com/ https://www.instagram.com/terricole/   Connect with Dr. Jaime Zuckerman: https://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/ https://www.zgrouptherapy.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.z_psychologist/ https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.z_psychologist https://www.youtube.com/@DrJaimeZuckerman   Get my FREE breathing exercise here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/newsletter Register for my on demand virtual courses here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/workshops Order my workbooks! *Find Your Calm / Find Good Habits* http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/books Shop my new Mindfully Messy hoodie here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/apparel Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

A lot has shifted, personally and professionally, and I want to be honest about what that looked like. I've been through some big transitions lately, and like many of you, I've had to untangle parts of my life that felt stuck so I could reconnect with a sense of creativity and authenticity that feels true to who I am now.   This season, I'm bringing that energy to the podcast. I'm sharing the ten Catalyst Codes I live by, my personal ethos that's helped me design a more aligned, sustainable way of practicing and mentoring. These aren't tips or tricks. They're values that came from lived experience: mistakes, grief, intuition, and a whole lot of unlearning.   What you'll get is the real me, talking from my home office, maybe with a barking dog in the background, maybe in the same outfit as last week. I'll be sharing stories from my own life and from the incredible women in my Catalyst Studio, with takeaways that actually make a difference in how you move through your day.   If you've been carrying a calendar that doesn't feel like yours… if you're craving a new way to work, live, and lead… I hope this season gives you the space to breathe, reflect, and start imagining something better.

Three dance dads pull back the curtain on competitions, parenting in a female-dominated world, and the unexpected friendships that keep them coming back.   In this episode, John Corella brings together Jason, David, and Nick, who are three longtime dance dads who've spent years supporting their daughters through the highs and lows of competitive dance. What begins as a casual conversation over Mickey's beers quickly opens into something more honest. They reflect on what it means to be an involved dad in a space where men are often absent, and how they've found connection, humor, and purpose in a world originally built around Dance Moms. There's plenty of laughter and storytelling, but woven through are deeper questions: How do you stay grounded when competition weekends run 14-hour days? What happens when your kid doesn't place? How do you handle Dance Mom drama without getting pulled into the chaos?   The episode also takes on the bigger picture: the dads speak openly about the financial and emotional weight of dance, their respect for the artistry involved, and what it's like to raise daughters within a controversial dance community that includes drag performers, queer choreographers, and bold expressions of identity. Rather than shy away from those dynamics, they lean in with curiosity and support. And yes, by the end, they each imagine their own Dance Dad solos, offering a rare glimpse at what fatherhood looks like when vulnerability and celebration go hand in hand.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Meet the Dance Dads 05:46 The Real Cost of Competitive Dance 11:42 How Dance Builds Unexpected Friendships 20:41 Dance Dads vs. Dance Moms 29:21 Protecting Daughters in a Controversial Dance Community 32:40 Teaching Resilience Through Defeat 35:28 Diversity, Inclusion, and the Future of Dance 41:10 Misconceptions About Dance Dads 44:10 Could a Dance Dad Reality Show Work?   Links Dance Dad with John Corella on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dancedadwithjohncorella/ John on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/john_corella/ Patreon: https://patreon.com/TheonlyDanceDadwithJohnCorella Website: johncorella.net Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

The Law Firm Leadership Podcast | We Interview Corp Defense Law Firm Leaders, Partners, General Counsel and Legal Consultants

David Lat spent years climbing the legal ladder, clerking, working at Wachtell, joining the DOJ, before realizing that the most meaningful part of his career wasn't going to happen in a courtroom. Joining Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg, David talks through the decisions that shaped his path, from writing a cheeky anonymous blog about federal judges to launching “Above the Law” and building one of the most influential voices in legal media. He reflects on the pressure to follow prestige, the pull of creative work, and the unexpected ways his early writing opened doors he didn't even know existed.   A serious case of COVID-19 in 2020 forced him to pause and take stock. What would it look like to return to writing on his own terms? What parts of the legal world still felt worth exploring?

Stop apologizing for putting your health first when you're with family or on vacation.   Dr. Andrew Fix gets real about the quiet pressure so many of us feel to explain or soften our choices when we're around others, especially when those choices support our health. Why do we feel the need to say sorry for skipping a drink or going out for a run before dinner? Why does taking care of ourselves sometimes feel like a disruption instead of something worth protecting?    In this episode, Dr. Fix shares a personal moment that sparked a bigger reflection on what it means to show up for your well-being without guilt. Whether you're traveling, hosting guests, or navigating full family days, he offers a grounded perspective on how to make space for your own needs without disconnecting from the people around you.   Quotes “You don't have to feel bad about wanting to take care of yourself because at the end of the day, that's going to make you feel good.” (03:33 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “It's filling up your cup first so that you can be there to support both mentally and physically the other people that you need to take care of or spend time with in your life. And it's so important for us all to do.” (03:42 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Do the things that you want to do when you want to do them. Don't be a jerk about it. Plan things as you need to around the activities that you have planned with your family and your friends.” (05:16 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “If they're important to you, the other people should support you in those things. And if they don't, make sure you bring that up to them.” (05:30 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Don't apologize for taking care of yourself because at the end of the day, that's what we need to do.” (05:46 | Dr. Andrew Fix)   Links SideKick Tool: https://bit.ly/4a6CqJS   Movemate:

A carefully planned CEO exit unraveled and what came next reshaped how one founder leads for good.   When Chris Schwalbach stepped away from the CEO seat at AVL Growth Partners, he had a clear plan, a strong successor, and years of preparation behind him. But even with all that in place, something didn't sit right. The business started to wobble, and Chris found himself wondering if he'd made a mistake.

Fawning isn't a flaw to fix. It is a brilliant survival response that can quietly shape your entire identity until you finally have the words for it.   In this episode, I sit down with clinical psychologist and author Ingrid Clayton for a conversation that I know will resonate deeply with so many of you. We talk about fawning, what it is, how it shows up, and why it's so often misunderstood. If you've ever felt like you disappeared in a relationship or lost touch with your own needs just to keep someone else happy, you're not alone. And chances are, your nervous system was doing exactly what it needed to do to keep you safe.   Ingrid shares her own story as a survivor of complex trauma, and how that experience shaped the work she does now. We explore the difference between trauma that's tied to a single event and the kind that builds over time in ways that can be hard to name. We talk about what healing actually looks like, how to start reconnecting with yourself, how to recognize the patterns that no longer serve you, and how to hold space for the grief that sometimes comes with change.   This isn't a conversation filled with quick fixes or five-step plans. It's honest and validating. If you've ever asked yourself, “Why do I keep doing this?” or “What's wrong with me?” I hope this episode helps you see that nothing about you is broken. There's a reason for the patterns. And there's also a way through.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Introduction  02:08 How Personal Experience with Trauma Shaped Dr. Ingrid Clayton's Work 03:17 What Complex Trauma Really Looks Like 10:20 Fawning as a Smart and Adaptive Trauma Response 14:03 Why Codependency and People-Pleasing Miss the Point 20:20 Real-Life Examples of Fawning in Adulthood 27:20 Why Trauma-Informed Therapy Matters 30:10 Rebuilding a Relationship with Yourself 36:09 How Healing Can Change Your Closest Relationships 40:41 Dr. Clayton's Message to Anyone Who Feels Broken   Links Book: Believing Me https://amzn.to/4lkulGy Website: https://www.ingridclayton.com/   Preorder ‘Fawning' here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/779579/fawning-by-dr-ingrid-clayton/ https://www.instagram.com/ingridclaytonphd/   Connect with Dr. Z: https://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/ https://www.zgrouptherapy.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.z_psychologist/ https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.z_psychologist https://www.youtube.com/@DrJaimeZuckerman   Get my FREE breathing exercise here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/newsletter Register for my on demand virtual courses here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/workshops Order my workbooks! *Find Your Calm / Find Good Habits* http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/books Shop my new Mindfully Messy hoodie here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/apparel Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

At every age and stage, we long to belong. But too often, that desire comes at the cost of abandoning parts of ourselves. True friendship isn't about fitting in - it's about finding your people: the ones you like, and the ones you feel good being around.   Leslie Randolph is joined by friendship expert and advice columnist Nina Badzin for a conversation about friendship and friend groups, especially during the tween and teen years. But the truths they explore reach well beyond middle school. How do we recognize a real friend versus someone we're just trying to impress? Why do so many of us stay in groups that drain us? And how can we help kids build friendships that reflect who they are, not who they think they're supposed to be?   Nina shares what she's learned from years of listening to people wrestle with connection, exclusion, and the pressure to belong. Together, Leslie and Nine unpack the difference between fitting in and finding true friendship, the quiet harm of chasing the “right” group, and the role adults play, often unintentionally, in keeping those patterns alive. They also talk about the value of community and how spaces like family dinners, extracurriculars, and youth groups can offer kids a sense of belonging that isn't dependent on social status.   This episode is a gentle reminder that strong friendships aren't built on proximity or history alone. They're built on trust, emotional safety, and mutual effort.

Have you ever found yourself staring into the fridge after a long day, unsure of what to eat and too tired to figure it out? Dr. Andrew Fix shares why food prepping has become one of the most reliable ways he supports his health during the week and how it might do the same for you.    Dr. Fix walks through the benefits in a way that feels both practical and surprisingly personal, showing how prepping a few simple meals ahead of time can help you feel more focused, less stressed, and better equipped to stay consistent with your goals. Could having your meals ready be less about discipline and more about creating space for better choices and more energy throughout the day? What would change if you treated the way you fuel your body with the same intention you bring to the rest of your day?    Whether you're already in a good rhythm or looking for a way to reset, this episode offers a thoughtful take on how food prep can support a healthier, more grounded routine.   Quotes “You're probably not prepping chocolate cake, right? You're probably not prepping Skittles, you're probably not prepping a McDonald's hamburger, right? You're putting things that are healthy in the container... you're gonna eat it and you're gonna feel great.” (06:18 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Eating should be enjoyable. Eating should be something that you look forward to... just sitting there eating, reflecting on your day.” (06:57 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “If you have health and fitness goals and you're not even considering the option of food prepping, I would encourage you to do so.” (07:48 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Food is fuel… And if you fuel your body with nutritious stuff, your body's going to give you back the energy and the ability to do the things that you want to do.” (10:14 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Your body is your vehicle. We need to fuel it with the highest possible quality of fuel that we can if we expect to get high performance out of it.” (10:25 | Dr. Andrew Fix)   Links https://www.instagram.com/reel/CzolaJyrynm/  https://andrew7ng.podbean.com/e/94-the-benefits-of-rucking/   SideKick Tool: https://bit.ly/4a6CqJS   Movemate:

Most entrepreneurs aren't drowning in work because they lack ambition. They're stuck doing too much of the wrong kind of work.   Sarah Lockwood talks with Julie Johnston, the founder of Rhino Squad, about what it looks like to operate from your zone of genius. They unpack the mindset traps that keep founders stuck in the weeds and walk through how small shifts in delegation can lead to major changes in time management and business growth.   Julie shares what she's learned helping leaders hire and work with virtual assistants, especially from the Philippines, and how a global workforce can unlock more freedom, better output, and stronger team culture. Are your top people doing high-value work? What could your business look like if they were?     Julie encourages founders to think big and recognize where VAs can support every part of your organization from revenue driving activities to business operations - VAs can do much more than confirm appointments, reschedule meetings or manage your inbox (although that ‘s a great place to start if you haven't yet)! If you've been hesitant to delegate or unsure where to start, Sarah and Julie's conversation will help you rethink how you're spending your time and what it's really costing you.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Meet Julie Johnston and Rhino Squad 02:03 Mindset Shifts for Effective Delegation 06:53 Maximizing Time with Virtual Assistants 10:50 Building a Supportive Team Culture 14:01 10X Thinking and Global Workforce Strategy 24:17 Julie's Conscious Entrepreneurial Journey 29:49 Core Values Behind Rhino Squad   Links Connect with The Conscious Entrepreneur: Website: http://www.consciousentrepreneur.us  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/conscious-entrepreneur/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conscious_entrepreneur_summit/   Connect with Julie Johnston: Website: www.rhinosquad.org  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rhinosquad_virtualassistants/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rhinojulie/   Connect with Sarah Lockwood: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lockwoodsarah/ Website: https://hivecast.fm HiveCast.fm is a proud sponsor of The Conscious Entrepreneur Podcast.

Most people don't realize how much of their relationship pain comes from patterns they never chose and beliefs they never questioned, and I've seen it over and over again.   In this episode, I'm joined by someone I've admired for a long time, relationship expert and author Jillian Turecki. Her new book, “It Begins With You: The Nine Hard Truths About Love That Will Change Your Life,” is the kind of work that doesn't just offer advice. It asks you to look inward. We talk about the ways we lose ourselves in relationships, the lies we tell ourselves to keep people close, and what it really means to grow after heartbreak. What does healthy love even look like? How do we know when we're giving too much? Why do so many of us feel like we have to convince someone to stay?   Jillian shares so much of her insight and experience in this conversation: why deal breakers matter, how our family stories shape our love lives, and what it actually means to make peace with the past. One of the most powerful takeaways for me was her perspective on forgiveness, and how letting go doesn't always mean condoning someone's behavior. Sometimes it just means refusing to carry the story anymore.   If you've ever felt stuck, questioned your worth in a relationship, or wondered why you keep ending up in the same kind of dynamic, this one's for you. I hope it leaves you feeling seen… and more importantly, ready to take your power back.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Jillian Turecki and Her Work 03:14 The Importance of Self-Reflection in Relationships 06:00 Defining Healthy Love 08:49 Understanding Deal Breakers in Relationships 11:57 The Complexity of Relationship Dynamics 15:08 The Myth of Fairy Tale Love 18:01 The Challenge of Convincing Someone to Love You 20:59 Processing Breakups and Moving Forward 24:00 Making Peace with Your Parents 36:49 Final Thoughts and Words of Wisdom   Links Connect with Jillian Turecki: https://www.jillianturecki.com/book https://www.instagram.com/jillianturecki/?hl=en https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jillian-on-love/id1640172049   Connect with Dr. Z: https://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/ https://www.zgrouptherapy.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.z_psychologist/ https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.z_psychologist https://www.youtube.com/@DrJaimeZuckerman   Get my FREE breathing exercise here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/newsletter Register for my on demand virtual courses here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/workshops Order my workbooks! *Find Your Calm / Find Good Habits* http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/books Shop my new Mindfully Messy hoodie here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/apparel Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Heading to summer camp? Confidence is the most important thing you can pack. Leslie Randolph speaks directly to girls (and their moms) navigating the nerves that come with starting something new, whether it's sleepaway camp or a big life transition. Some girls are counting down the days with excitement. Others feel anxious, unsure, or like they're heading off against their will. All of that is normal, Leslie says, and it's exactly why building self-confidence matters.   Leslie breaks down how self-confidence isn't about having zero fear. It's about moving forward with the fear and choosing how you want to show up anyway. She offers mindset shifts to help girls challenge worst-case-scenario thinking and reframe those “what if” worries. Confidence starts by recognizing that you can't control who likes you, but you can decide how you show up, how you treat others, and what kind of camper you want to be.   From embracing your interests (even if no one else is into archery!) to staying open to new friendships and new experiences, this episode is a permission slip to be yourself bravely, and without apology. Whether your daughter's headed to camp, starting high school, or trying something new for the first time, Leslie offers a confidence care package for the road ahead!   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Welcome to Why Didn't They Tell Us   01:49 Why Camp Brings Up Big Feelings   03:45 How to Normalize Nerves and Build Confidence   05:01 Stop the Spiral: Rethinking Worst-Case Thinking   08:12 Confidence Starts with Knowing Yourself   13:24 Be Open to New Things (Even If You're Bad at First)   15:12 Confidence Is a Skill, Not a Trait Connect With Leslie: Help Your Teen Cultivate Confidence Website Instagram Facebook Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Get Organized for Good with Corinne Morahan:  Maximize Your Productivity, Cultivate Purposeful Habits and Have More Fun!

Building a successful business gets a lot easier when pleasure is part of the plan.    In this episode, Corinne Morahan shares how tapping into joy, rest, and rituals that feel good can open doors to the kind of success that hustle alone can't reach. Drawing from her own evolution, from being a professional organizer to a multi-business CEO, she makes the case that pleasure isn't a distraction from productivity, but a direct line to better ideas, stronger decisions, and more energy to execute.   Corinne invites listeners to identify what genuinely lights them up and to design routines that make space for it, whether it's a steamy bath, quiet backyard time, or a great romance novel. The goal? To stop capping your potential with stress and instead fuel your creativity, magnetism, and stamina through practices that feel good.   What would shift if your days were filled with more fun, more joy, and more of what energizes you? That's where the real power starts.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Why Pleasure Belongs in Your Business Plan 01:18 From Professional Organizer to CEO 02:35 Breaking the Grind Mentality 04:51 Designing Personal Pleasure Rituals 09:54 Pleasure, Power, and Big Ideas 12:02 Strategy Meets Pleasure   Links Connect With Corinne: https://www.gridandglam.com/ https://www.corinnemorahan.com/ https://www.instagram.com/gridandglam/ https://www.instagram.com/corinnemorahan/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/corinnemorahan/ https://www.facebook.com/gridandglam Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Titles don't build trust, people do. And according to Rebecca Goodman-Stephens, that's where real leadership begins. Rebecca is the CEO of Moses Singer, a New York law firm, but her story starts far from the legal world. She grew up across the UK, Switzerland, and France, studied clinical psychology, and built her career in consulting and public accounting before stepping into her current role. Along the way, she kept coming back to the same core skill: understanding people. As she joins hosts Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg, Rebecca shares how her background shaped her leadership style, and why listening, curiosity, and follow-through matter more than any formal authority. How do you get people to want to work with you? How does one shift a firm's culture without blowing up what's already working? Rebecca also talks about her move into legal services and what surprised her most, like how much creativity and momentum she's found in a space often viewed as slow to change. From evolving compensation structures to narrowing focus and driving intentional growth, she walks through the mindset behind her first two years as CEO. This episode touches on private equity and what legal leaders can learn from the accounting world. Rebecca offers a clear message: don't wait for outside investment to fix what you haven't yet addressed internally.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Meet Rebecca Goodman-Stephens 04:04 How Clinical Psychology Shapes Rebecca's Leadership Approach 08:02 Lessons from Consulting and Public Accounting 12:52 Why Rebecca Moved into Legal Services 15:50 What Surprised Rebecca About the Legal Industry 17:27 Leading Change as CEO at Moses Singer 21:13 Private Equity and the Future of Law Firms 24:23 Building a Resilient, Forward-Looking Organization 26:41 Launching a Business-Focused Law Firm Podcast 27:56 Personal Passions, Family Life, and New York Favorites   Links Connect with Rebecca Goodman-Stephens: LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecca-goodman-stephens-b702665/   Connect with Howard Rosenberg: LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hrosenberg/ Company web profile: https://www.baretzbrunelle.com/howard-rosenberg   Connect with Chris Batz: LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisbatz/  LinkedIn Company page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/columbus-street/ Columbus Street website: https://www.columbus-street.com/  Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Hallie Woods spent 15 years inside hospital leadership, and she's seen firsthand how the healthcare system actually works and who it really works for. In this episode, she joins Dr. Andrew Fix to talk about what happens when hospitals and insurance companies prioritize profit over patient care. Hallie shares what she learned as Chief Operating Officer of a large Denver hospital, where care decisions were often shaped by billing codes, time limits, and financial incentives. What does it mean when a system rewards volume over outcomes? And how does that affect the kind of care people actually receive?   Hallie also opens up about her own experience navigating the system, as a daughter who lost her mother after a rushed visit with a primary care doctor, and as a patient who discovered a cancer diagnosis only because she insisted on getting checked. These moments pushed her to build Accessum Health, a membership-based model designed to give people better access, clearer guidance, and more time with the care they need.   This episode explores how patients can take more ownership of their health: asking better questions, seeking second opinions, and recognizing when the system isn't serving them. How do you advocate for yourself when you're not sure what to ask? Where do you turn when the answers you're getting don't feel right? Hallie and Dr. Fix don't just name the problems. They look closely at what can be done differently, and what it might take to shift the focus of healthcare back to people.   Quotes “People always say [our healthcare system] is broken. I don't say it's broken. I say it works as it's designed to. It's this very complex, overly complex system that makes it challenging for people to get good preventive care, to get care when they need it. And it's really designed for profit, unfortunately.” (04:02 | Hallie Woods) “The business of medicine is designed to optimize profit. It's designed to provide care for the sick. And it's designed to figure out how we get more people into what I call the healthcare funnel, which unfortunately causes a number of different issues…” (06:24 | Hallie Woods) “We're all trying to code up, manipulate the system to get those billable codes, but a lot of really important work doesn't fall within those billable codes, and that's coordination.” (13:19 | Hallie Woods) “As humans, we were designed to trust our physicians, our providers, because they have all the schooling. But unfortunately, you need to be your own advocate. You need to push and ask for things, because sometimes in this quick, quick system, it's, as you said before, the squeaky wheel gets the oil, and you've always got to be the squeaky wheel when it's you or your family's health.” (24:47 | Hallie Woods)   Links Connect with Hallie Woods: www.accessumhealth.com   Hallie spent 15 as an executive in large, corporate hospital systems, most recently as the Chief Operating Officer of a large hospital in the Denver Metro area. In these roles, Hallie had first-hand insight into how the American healthcare system isn't serving people: focusing on quantity, not quality, and putting profits before people. Hallie started Accessum Health, a membership-based healthcare plan, to help provide better access and navigation for the American healthcare system.    SideKick Tool: https://bit.ly/4a6CqJS   Movemate:

Most teams aren't drowning in work. They're drowning in distractions.   Sarah Lockwood is joined by Jenna Piché, the founder of First Light Time Management Coaching, for a timely conversation about team productivity, deep work, and sharpening your leadership focus. With the year halfway over, it's a good moment to stop and ask: Are you making real progress on the goals you set in January or just staying busy?   Jenna shares why so many leaders unintentionally build cultures where busyness is rewarded, and why that's such a dangerous trap. When everything feels urgent, it's easy to lose sight of the work that actually moves the needle. What signals are you sending to your team about what matters? Are people clear on what to focus on or are they stuck reacting all day?   They also discuss the psychology of productivity and procrastination, including what's actually going on in your brain when you put off the hard stuff. And they talk through what it looks like to shift into a culture that values deep work and gives people the space to do their best thinking.   If your team's attention feels fractured (or maybe your own), Jenna offers a smart reset. The kind that helps you see where time is leaking out of your day, and how to fix it before the second half of the year slips by.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Reflecting on Goals and Productivity 02:53 Misaligned Priorities and the Myth of Busyness 06:14 Creating a Culture of Focus 09:00 Identifying Misalignment in Teams 14:55 Overcoming Procrastination and Fear 18:05 Shifting Mindsets for Deep Work 21:00 Building a Supportive Team Culture 23:56 Setting Seemingly Impossible Goals   Links Connect with The Conscious Entrepreneur: Website: http://www.consciousentrepreneur.us  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/conscious-entrepreneur/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conscious_entrepreneur_summit/    Connect with Jenna Piche: Fractured or Focused Attention Assessment: https://eencclvnukx.typeform.com/to/dMYQ67rp LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennapiche/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/firstlightcoach/ Website: https://firstlighthealth.co/womens-health-and-focus-coaching   Connect with Sarah Lockwood: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lockwoodsarah/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hivecast.fm/ Website: https://hivecast.fm   HiveCast.fm is a proud sponsor of The Conscious Entrepreneur Podcast.

Could a simple walk challenge your body, clear your mind, and strengthen your sense of discipline all at once? Dr. Andrew Fix unpacks the rising popularity of rucking: a low-tech approach to fitness that involves walking with added weight in a backpack or vest. He explains how this small shift transforms a regular walk into a more efficient workout that improves cardiovascular health, builds muscle, and supports mental well-being. The best part? You don't need specialized equipment. A backpack and a few heavy books are enough to get started.   This episode also explores how rucking creates space for connection. Whether you're walking with a friend or joining a group, there's something powerful about moving side by side with others. Dr. Fix shares why those moments matter, and how they help build both physical and emotional resilience.   If you've been looking for a sustainable, accessible way to support your health, rucking might be the shift your routine needs!   Quotes “It makes you have to work harder, not only physically, like your muscles, your joints, your tissues have to work a little bit harder, but so does your heart, so does your cardiovascular system, so do your lungs, your respiratory system, and it's gonna up-level that training just a little bit for you.” (02:57 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “If you want to be efficient with your time that you have to exercise and you want to maximize that, throwing a little bit of extra weight on you when you go for that walk... is just going to make it more impactful and more efficient for you.” (07:03 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “There's this situation where you're across from somebody and it's me versus you, but if you're next to somebody, it's us and we're in this together.” (09:24 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “If you're looking for something consistent, easy to stick with, and a way to build a little mental toughness along the way, rucking might be a great activity for you.” (10:26 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “I encourage you—whether you've got a weight vest, a backpack, actual weights, or just some books or water bottles—add a little extra weight to your next walk and give rucking a try.” (11:38 | Dr. Andrew Fix)   Links https://www.google.com/search?q=rucking&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS987US989&oq=rucking&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyDAgAEEUYORixAxiABDINCAEQABiDARixAxiABDIHCAIQABiABDINCAMQABiDARixAxiABDINCAQQABiDARixAxiABDIHCAUQABiABDIHCAYQABiABDIGCAcQRRg90gEIMTA0NmowajeoAgCwAgA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8   https://www.podbean.com/player-v2/?i=ncte4-14f60bb-pb&from=pb6admin&share=1&download=1&rtl=0&fonts=Arial&skin=1&font-color=auto&logo_link=episode_page&btn-skin=1b1b1b#:~:text=In%20this%20episode%20of%20The,strengthen%20your%20core%20and%20legs   SideKick Tool: https://bit.ly/4a6CqJS   Movemate:
