The remarkable story of a boy who once dove into a swimming pool that didn't have any water in it because he couldn't admit that he was going blind and couldn't see that he was headed for concrete, and how that boy turned into the CEO of Guiding Eyes for the Blind, a married father of four, a board member and a finisher of The Boston Marathon and The New York Marathon. Thomas Panek's story is relevant to all of us, for it shows us the gifts that we can all receive once we push aside our pride and reach out for help.    

Give yourself the ultimate gift. The holiday season is all about giving. But perhaps when it comes to gifts, the one you want the most right now is just to hit the pause button. A calm, still mind isn't just great in the moment, it's also something that can carry you through life's difficulties. This time of year, it's normal to feel triggered or brought to a low place, especially if you had a particularly difficult year. This season can feel like an ultimate endurance test, but a few small preparations and changes in your routine can help you get through the holidays with more ease. In this episode, you will learn about: The gift we need the most right now and what that looks like. What we can lower our expectations on during this time of year. The loss I recently experienced and what it reminded me. How to deal with your mental load and why it's so important. Tips for processing year-end disappointments (and what success truly is). Why “it's that time of year” isn't a valid excuse for getting off track. What the winter arc is and how you can use it to your advantage. Why so many women lack inner peace, and the path to finding it. A challenge for you to try this week as a gift to yourself.   Check out The Pink Skirt Project, happening June 12, 2025 in Kelowna, BC, Canada.   Got a minute?

I think the best holiday gift is to make the most of ourselves, when it comes to personal development, whether that means sales and marketing training, whether it means personal training, whether it means meditation, whatever it is for you, prayer, whatever it is that allows you to get to a place where you can really focus, really be present, and be your best for yourself, and those around you, is really important. David: Hi and welcome to the podcast. In today's episode, co-host, Jay McFarland and I will be discussing the best holiday gift you can give yourself and your family. Welcome back, Jay. Jay: Thank you so much, David, for the opportunity to be here. And I love this question. It's a little off track from some of the things that we normally talk about. But I think as we talk about running your own business and the amount of time that it takes, taking a little bit of time out to think about your family and how you can make their holidays special, I think it's a critical topic. David: Yeah. And of course, because of the nature of the things that we talk about, what I'm really thinking about when it comes to the best holiday gift you can give yourself and your family, I tend to look at it as "a better you," right? If you can provide yourself and your family with a better you, a smarter you, a more motivated you, a more inspired you, that is going to really make a huge difference in your business life, in your personal life, and the life of the people that you care about. And of course, this time of year a lot of people are focused on actual gift giving, which of course is a traditional thing as well. But when we think about what really is going to help ourselves, our family, our loved ones most, it's going to be, you know, a healthier, happier, safer, more productive you, generally. Jay: Yeah. I love this line of thinking because you could give them all the presents in the world, but if you're stressed out all the time, if you're angry, because of what's going on at work and those types of things, you can't buy their love or their gratitude with gifts. Maybe they're a little bit happy in the morning, but by the end of the day they still remember what kind of circumstances you've left them in. David: Yeah, I remember when the kids were really young and we'd have gifts in the morning and by afternoon , it was like everybody was kind of cranky because you kind of get what you wanted out of the day and have too many sweets and all that sort of thing. But again, I think if we think really more in terms of what we're going to be doing and how we're going to be living and interacting with each other. A great example of this about a week or so ago on social media, Charity Gibson, who is involved in the promotional products industry in a lot of ways, and is just really inspiring for a lot of people. She posted something on Facebook about what happens when, at some point, you're doing everything for everyone else and you're not doing anything for yourself. You're not taking care of yourself. And I think it's such a great point, because a lot of times people can fall into this trap of thinking, well, I don't want to be selfish. But there is a big difference between selfishness and what I refer to as rational self-interest. In other words, rational self-interest is what keeps us from stepping off the curb and into traffic, right? The desire to look both ways before we cross the street. That's rational self-interest. Nobody would really look at that and say, oh, you're being selfish. But I think a lot of times people tend to, for themselves mostly, think, well, I should be doing more. I could be doing more. They want to help everybody else. And if you don't put gas in your own tank first, you're not going to have any energy left for anyone else. Jay: Yeah, such a good point. In fact, I saw a study just yesterday and it was talking about the high levels of anxiety in our youth,

Did you know the greatest gift you can give yourself this holiday season isn't under the tree? It's reconnecting with your body and the pleasure already within you. We spend so much of this season focused outward, buying gifts, hosting family, and checking off endless to-do lists. But how often do we pause to give ourselves the gift of presence, the gift of self-connection, the gift of coming home to our bodies? That's precisely what we're exploring today in episode 39 of Pleasure in the Pause! Ready to Deepen Your Self-Connection Practice?I've created something special just for you - a free guided touch practice tutorial that walks you through all four types of touch we explored today. Access your Free Guided Touch Practice.Highlights from the episode include:The greatest gift we can give ourselves during the holiday season is not material, but rather a reconnection with our bodies and the pleasure found within.We often get caught up in the outward focus of the holiday season and forget to tune into our bodies and their needs.Interoception, the practice of listening to our body's signals, is key for self-connection and understanding our needs.Touch is a powerful tool for self-connection, stress reduction, and cultivating a sense of safety and belonging.A guided touch practice can deepen self-connection and cultivate pleasure.Prioritizing self-connection and pleasure is crucial not just during the holidays, but throughout the year.Remember, the greatest gift you can give yourself this season is the gift of self-connection. Tune into your body, honor its needs, and rediscover the pleasure that resides within.

In this episode of Building Wealthy Habits, we unwrapped a truly unique and heartwarming topic: holiday gifting with purpose. Our conversation focused on holiday gift ideas that go beyond the ordinary—offering thoughtfulness, financial literacy, and deeper family connections. From fun educational games to timeless financial books, we explored ways to inspire critical thinking about money in creative, approachable ways. We also highlighted subscriptions and gadgets that make learning about finances engaging and even entertaining. And for a touch of sentimentality, we discussed the power of living gifts, like plants, that symbolize growth, resilience, and the beauty of continuity within families. At the heart of this episode is a message of giving with intention—choosing gifts that spark meaningful conversations, create lasting memories, and enrich lives in ways that go well beyond the holidays.

Can a doctor's strongest medicine be kindness to themselves? In this candid conversation, Dr. Kathy Stepien, physician coach and advocate for medical wellness, challenges the notion that self-criticism leads to better performance. Speaking with host Dr. Lia Gaggino, she unpacks how physician coaching has evolved from executive suites to mainstream medicine, backed by clinical trials from institutions like Mayo Clinic and Stanford. Dr. Stepien shares powerful stories about identity transitions in medicine, from early-career challenges to retirement questions, while offering practical ways to find the right support. Her remarkable work in bringing hidden struggles to light proves that no physician needs to walk their professional journey alone.
