If you were to have met them years ago, DJ and Robin Angaiak wound not have been at the top of your list for missionaries. In fact, they were an unlikely couple in so many ways. Neither had much, if any, relationship with God. Their relationship with each other was unhealthy. There was so much hopelessness and pain. However, God has an incredible way of not only returning what's been stolen from us, but also in turning it around for our good and the good of those around us. As you listen, you'll learn: How a key relationship in school opened up DJ's heart years later. How Robin's insatiable search for something more and reading William Shakespeare opened Robin's eyes to the Gospel. Why the journey from God's calling to actually stepping into missions took so long (and how knowing about call kept them going).

In addition, she is a writer of fiction books and blog posts.Listen in as Robin explains how she conceptualized Rogue Recruitment to be “radically different” from every other staffing agency out there by focusing on candidates' goals instead of their impact on the company's bottom line.She reflects on her lessons learned during the first six months trying to get Rogue off the ground, as well as how her personal experience with declining mental health during her lowest points as a business owner inspired Robin to further promote a team culture of transparency and vulnerability.What You'll Learn in This Episode:●      [02:46] An introduction to Rogue Recruitment and “anti-staffing, staffing”●      [06:01] Why Robin started Rogue Response●      [07:00] How Rogue Recruitment is different from other staffing agencies●      [10:17] What big staffing agencies need to do to change●      [14:31] Where quality over quantity begins at Rogue Recruitment●      [17:21] How Rogue Recruitment communicates with their clients●      [20:20] Getting Rogue off the ground in the first six months●      [24:41] What Robin has learned about hiring the right people●      [27:36] How Robin recovered from a period of declining mental health●      [31:35] Robin's advice to those struggling with their mental health at work●      [34:57] Robin's advice to a new entrepreneur just getting their agency off the ground●      [37:47] Robin's content strategy for RogueKey quotes:●      “The staffing industry is very broken, and if you just go by what's normal in staffing, you're never going to make that difference and disrupt it.”●      “One of the ways that I want to radically transform the industry is by having staffing agencies who are very committed to the community and in giving back.”●      “When you place somebody at a new job, you are literally changing their life. You have a major impact on them, because how they're doing professionally is going to seep into their personal life; so, it's a huge, huge responsibility. When the big companies turn it down to, ‘What's your gross margin off of this person?' you lose the entire point of recruitment, and it's about helping people find positions to better themselves.”●      “The negative emphasis on metrics has occurred because it's easier for people to understand numbers versus relationships.”●      “It's not a sign of failure to admit that you're struggling; to need time off. It's a sign of immense strength when you can reach out and ask for help.”Resources Mentioned:●      Rogue Recruitment●      Robin Walters on LinkedIn

Dealing with our own anger habits in a healthy and productive way can be challenging in itself, but what can often be even more difficult is learning how to deal with receiving someone else’s anger in a way that doesn’t turn into a conflict or inspire feelings of resentment. If we leave ourselves unchecked, it can be easy to ‘feed off’ of someone else’s anger. Keeping ourselves grounded when receiving someone’s anger is critical to defuse the situation, but how do you do that? Addiction counselor, trauma specialist, and co-founder of Still Point Wellness, Corey Costanzo, suggests it starts with self-regulation In today’s episode, Corey and I discuss the varying degrees of anger - both giving and receiving it. We discuss how some anger is considered healthy and how we can determine when someone’s anger becomes unhealthy and abusive. We explore ways couples can help their partners defuse their anger. We discuss how my wife, Rainbow, helps me self-regulate my angry feelings by allowing me to vent. We highlight the strategies we use to keep ourselves grounded when we’re on the receiving end of someone’s anger, such as breathing deeply and validating the other person’s point of view. We discuss the importance of setting boundaries when receiving someone’s anger, some of the phrases that can often trigger a person’s anger, such as“calm down,” “just deal with it,” and “ you’re making too big of a deal out of this.” We also share alternative phrases you can use to help defuse an angry situation and Corey shares how his wife, Robin, helped him snap out of an ‘anger fog’ through empathy, understanding, and love.   “It’s the validation of an angry person’s anger that is most likely going to defuse the anger and lead towards greater connection and understanding.”  - Corey Costanzo   This week on Relationships! Let’s Talk About It: Understanding the difference between ‘healthy anger’ and ‘unhealthy anger’ and why it’s critical to recognize the boundary line between them How mirroring strategies and allowing your partner to express their anger without interruption can help them self-regulate their behaviors How our childhood experiences with anger Impact the way we deal with other people’s anger in adulthood Using deep breathing techniques to keep yourself grounded while receiving someone’s anger Setting healthy boundaries when someone’s anger crosses the line Identifying and addressing emotionally, psychologically, and verbally abusive behaviors Working with your partner to set healthy boundaries, agreements, and commitments for dealing with each other’s anger Phrases that can often fuel a person’s anger and what you can say instead to help defuse the situation How validating your partner’s feelings and experiences can help them feel less threatened How Robin snapped Corey out of an ‘anger fog’ by expressing her concern for his health and wellbeing Using the practice of witnessing your partner’s anger when it’s directed at an object Retraining your mind and body to respond to anger in a healthier way through visualization techniques Preparing ourselves for conflicts in our relationships   Resources Mentioned: National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) The Right Use of Power: The Heart of Ethics by Cedar Barstow   Related Content: The Anger Habit   Connect with Corey Costanzo: Still Point Wellness Still Point Wellness on Facebook Still Point Wellness on Pinterest Still Point Wellness on Instagram Corey Costanzo on LinkedIn   Sponsored by Still Point Wellness Still Point Wellness is Asheville’s premier spa experience.

Massive amounts of people were furloughed during the pandemic, stuck with nothing to do but worry about the future, and no clue as to how they might get back to the career they had…. When COVID hit and Robin was furloughed, she sat wondering if she'd have a job left when the dust settled. She spent her time job searching, only to find “more of the same,” or roles she worried she didn't qualify for. Robin was skeptical on whether a career coach was what she needed-- she didn't believe she needed clarity, and she wasn't even sure what that meant.  On this episode of The Bridge to Fulfillment, Blake and Robin discuss the self-defeating beliefs that keep us motionless when we're at a low point, gaining the clarity needed to find the way back to our purpose, and how the lessons we learn are passed down through generations after us. Tune in to be inspired by Robin's journey from an emotional black hole to her dream job. You'll Learn   Why we allow our search for career fulfillment to be guided by a lot of external factors, rather than our own value, and how to break free from that habit How Robin found the courage to begin investing in herself, and the impact the decision has made on her life What happens when you learn to recognize and own your special skill sets, and the difference you'll see in your career path And much more! Favorite Quote “To get help doesn't make you weak, it does not make you an outcast, it doesn't make you wrong. It makes you a person that believes so much in yourself that you get to a point where you know, ‘I can't do this alone.' And so, you then say, ‘I've got to get some help,' and you feel okay, inside your whole soul, enough to ask for it or go after it.”   - Robin How to get involved To schedule a 15 minute discovery call to see if or how Blake can help you: www.connectionsilluminated.com To get access to free resources, updates & future events, join Blake's newsletter at www.bridge2fulfillment.com You are capable of far more than you can imagine.

Are you coping with working at home and taking care of your kids? And are you finding the time to practice some self-care as well? We all find ourselves in different situations right now. Although there are a lot of similarities with what we’re experiencing, there are a lot of differences too. Some of us have four kids at home, while others don’t have any children. And many of us are working from home now, while others might not be working at all. Today’s episode is both personal and practical. Robin shares the shifts that she and her family have made to thrive in this unique and unprecedented season.  Robin gives us a peek behind the scenes and talks about what her day-to-day life is looking like right now.

Robin has been working remotely for more than five years now, and currently, her entire team is remote so they have developed some very effective systems for working from home. There’s no nanny for now. Time-blocking has now become more important than ever. Sneaking in some work-hours, in the mornings. Working in the evenings is not good for your health and well-being, however, you might have to make some exceptions right now. Screen-time rules for Robin’s kids have lightened up for now. You need to be very clear about your priorities. Communication is key with remote work. Getting dressed in the mornings helps Robin to feel productive. Home-schooling is a different experience for everyone.  As parents, you need to have some structure in your day. Let things fall as they will, and then adjust them as you go along. It’s not easy to make time for yourself now, but it is possible. Robin has created a free online class about this, called Creating Healthy Routines. How To Care For Yourself When You’re Short On Time and Energy.  What self-care really is all about. Focusing on gratitude throughout the day can change your life. How Robin’s 15-minute workouts are carrying her through the day. Robin has not watched the news at all in the last four weeks. This does not mean that she’s uninformed, however. Remember to drink water, check-in with your body, and relax throughout the day. Little things are big things right now. Friendships have gone digital for now.

This week, I’m speaking to Robin Snowdon who runs Limeburn Hill Biodynamic Vineyard. The vineyard is biodynamic and Robin works closely with the land, managing the estate not just for the vines but also for native flora and fauna. He also uses fascinating methods to produce unique wines that encapsulate the flavour and essence of the site. Robin gives an excellent insight into what can happen when you grow crops in tune with your site, rather than fighting against it.  About Robin Snowdon: Robin Snowdon and Georgina Harvey planted Limeburn Hill Biodynamic Vineyard in 2015, and Robin now works full time managing the vineyard and making the wine. The vineyard has been run following biodynamic practices from the beginning and this helps create both vineyard and wines that are full of character, identity and with a strong sense of place. More than half of the vineyard area is managed purely as habitat for native flora and fauna, and all wines are natural and fermented using only wild yeast from the vineyard. As part of his commitment to the land and his interest in the spiritual aspect of farming, Robin is also training to become a Druid. What we talk about: How Robin manages the vineyard and what they produce from Limeburn Hill? How the vineyard is biodynamic? What does this involve? What made Robin decide biodynamic growing was the best way to manage his vineyard? Is there evidence that biodynamic growing produces better crops, higher yields and so on? Robin’s salutogenic approach to growing. The anti-fungal and anti-mildew sprays he uses on his vines The terroir and why the wines wouldn’t taste the same if they were grown anywhere else Links: Website:  www.limeburnhillvineyard.co.uk Instagram: limeburnhill Twitter: @limeburnhill  For more details on Biodynamics have a look at the Biodynamic Association UK website https://www.biodynamic.org.uk Get in touch; Email podcast@rootsandall.co.uk  Website www.rootsandall.co.uk  Twitter @rootsandall Instagram rootsandallpod Patreon Link; Help me keep the podcast free & independent!

I am happy to have you on. All right, so we've got a lot to talk about here. Just given your bio, we've got a lot to dive into. So the first thing I am so curious about is what is a molecular geneticist and how did you get into that field? Robin Meyers:                                      Yeah, I have an eclectic background. I know I got into molecular genetics actually really because I didn't get into med school. I thought I was going to go to med school and I didn't get accepted in the states. And of course my parents were like, you're not going out of the country. I was like, okay. Although now looking back could have been fun. So I went to, I got accepted into Case Western reserve in Cleveland, Ohio and sounded like a great program. So I went and became a molecular geneticist down the road. Karen Litzy:                                           And what does a molecular geneticists do exactly? Robin Meyers:                                      You spend quite a lot of time in the lab. I actually was in a lab working with fruit flies. So in a lab with a lot of fruit flies, killed many of them a lot on research. So I was on research specifically looking for genes that had to do with flight. Robin Meyers:              01:34                So lots of DNA work and I'm not talking about, I'm talking old school, so now I'm going to date myself. Old school, 1986 to 89 where you know, the DNA plates were big glass plates that had to be poured. That was the hardest part I think. Karen Litzy:                                           I mean it's pretty amazing because now you know, we hear a lot in the news about women in stem, science, technology, education, medicine. So we hear a lot about women in stem and how the push is to get more women involved in these professions. So you were involved in this profession in a time where I have to think there weren't a lot of women there. Robin Meyers:                                      Well interestingly enough, I never really put that together until recently in my life that maybe I was a pioneer. I don't know. Robin Meyers:              02:34                I was too shy and quiet then to even think about that. But, it's true. There really weren't, and it was really on the forefront because when I graduated it was just the beginning of the human genome project and all of the human genetics. You know, my first job was with the French Anderson Group who was part of that genome project. And one of my companies that I started working for was the first DNA purification columns, like the disposable kind. And it really was on the forefront. So kinda cool. Karen Litzy:                                           No, I think it's amazing. I think that this is the coolest thing. And, and when I was reading through your bio, I feel like, so just for context, Robin and I have known each other for well over a year now, right? Maybe year and a half, two years, I'm not quite sure. But I remember reading her bio thinking, well, I didn't know any of this. Karen Litzy:                   03:28                I didn’t know you discovered a gene. I did not know any of this. And I just think it's like so cool that here you were and I will say a pioneer in the fields of stem. And I just wanted to highlight that for people so that, you know, they know that you’re coming from this sort of, I would think analytical data driven background. Robin Meyers:                                      I really am actually, you know, and it's funny how for me as I developed, I always thought of my science and my master's degree was kind of just a stepping stone into whatever that next step was of my life. But dots do connect, you know, and when you start to own it, you do see these patterns. I did, I discovered a gene. And it's funny, it wasn't until recently, even in the salon when it was like you did what? Robin Meyers:              04:25                And the ironic part is the gene, it's still called TUB36 because it's on the chromosome region of 36 in fruit flies has to deal with the wing formation, for fight or flight for flying like dystrophy and working with fear and that whole concept, it's like, it's just kind of weird and ironic and exciting and just interesting. Karen Litzy:                                           Yeah, it's really interesting. And so let's get into now this other part of your life and your career, which is a fear strategist. So the same question as what is the molecular geneticist I have for what the heck is a fear of strategist. Robin Meyers:                                      So I've taken over owning fear strategy because, you know, I became a coach, you know, after I left my graduate degree and became a wife and a mother and went through that phase of my life, and other jobs, I really started to figure out who I was and finding my own voice and dealing with my own fears and things like that. Robin Meyers:              05:38                And so I worked with women giving themselves permission to look outside the box and working in transitions really. And so I've been every kind of transitional kind of coach to life strategists. And when it comes down to it, as I've owned the molecular genetic side and the science of fear, I was like, I'm a fear strategist. Like really what it is, is being able to understand that fear is real. And I think that's really where my message is right now. Like, if I can get the world to understand the science of fear, that it's not just this thing that should stop us in our tracks. Yes, it's limiting beliefs, but we can work through that. And I think when people hear the science of it and realize that it does work to our advantage, it creates a whole different conversation in this world. Robin Meyers:              06:35                So it makes people stop and say, what is that? Instead of like, you're just another coach. But there is the science. So it kind of for me kind of stirs up the science and to be able to say, let me tell you, let me explain my science background to you. Karen Litzy:                                           Yeah. So let's talk about the science of fear. So what is it about fear? What happens with them? I'm assuming that's what happens within our bodies, when we have that feeling of fear. So could you tell the listeners a little bit more, give us a background on what is the science. Robin Meyers:                                      Okay. So it's totally fascinating. So the science is, you know, our brains so anyone in science will understand this, that you know, our brain is the most complicated organ in our body. Our emotions basically are lit up from different regions of our brains working together in combination and lighting up and igniting. The fear response is in combination of five areas that light up. Robin Meyers:              07:41                And that's the amygdala, the sensory cortex, the Thalamus, the hypothalamus and hippocampus, all those areas. When a fear response comes they have to work together to produce that next step for the fear. Now the interesting thing is as all of that coordinates together, the Amygdala, which is like the size of a cashew, not only decodes your emotions, but it stores the imprint of every fear of every response from pre verbal stages throughout your entire life. Like every single thing, if you think of it like a tattoo, like you keep getting a tattoo with every single thing every fall, every emotion, every emotion associated with fear is another tattoo. And I don't think people actually realize, it's almost like if you could kind of tell me all about your life and actions that have happened. And I could sit there with a stamp, an ink pad, and just stamp a piece of paper and like you could physically see how many imprints you have. Robin Meyers:              08:53                It's fascinating because not only do imprints start storing prior to you even realizing it, and that's more so because our parents impose their imprints of fear on us, but every little thing for the good and the bed. So there's a whole pattern of evolution that happens. Karen Litzy:                                           First of all, I love the metaphor of the tattoo imprinting in the Amygdala. I love that. I'm going to start using that with patients who have chronic and persisting pain. I love it. Thank you. And it takes me back to, you know, as you know, Robin, I have a long history with chronic pain and a lot of that was centered. What kind of made the pain worse or prolonged would be fear avoidance behaviors. So I can't do that. It's going to hurt my neck. I don't want to do that it's going to hurt my neck. Karen Litzy:                   09:55                I can't sleep. It's going to hurt my neck. So now I look back and think of that day when that pain first happened, I woke up and couldn't get out of bed. So much pain. And the thing that I guess I didn't connect until right now was how fearful I was. How fearful I was laying in bed not being able to move. So can you imagine the size of that Tattoo in my amygdala? Robin Meyers:                                      Yeah, exactly. Exactly. So the idea is to take it one step further is to realize what those imprints are and remove the ones that aren't serving you. And you know, that's easier said than done. It's not easy. No, no, no. I'm not saying any of this is easy, but there's some that have been imposed that you really can't put your finger on it. Robin Meyers:              10:52                Right? And then there's some that you've had an accident or something that you can put your finger on it, but it's not serving you. And then there's some deeper wounds that you really have to work through. But if you can start removing the ones that totally aren't serving you and actually work through it so it makes you the more you've worked through it. What I find with my clients, with myself, just people I deal with, it makes you live much more presently and actively and it takes courage. I always say it’s actively moving through the action with the conscious courageous presence because you have to be present and it is, it takes a lot of courage, no doubt. Karen Litzy:                                           And how do you start working through some of these things? Like can you give the listeners, I don't know, one or two tips or exercises that they might be able to start doing today if they realize they have a fear that might be holding them back. Robin Meyers:              11:54                So the biggest thing really is self awareness. It's really taking the time for you to understand who are you and just you forget kind of the noise of what your responsibilities are. If you've got, you know, spouse, dog, kids, whatever stage of life you're in and everyone has a different stage. So, and just to tell your listeners I had three kids and now 22, 24, 27. So I've been through a lot. Trust me. So I get it all. But whatever stage you're at, I only say build in five minutes every morning just to be in your own thoughts. And ask yourself, what do you need? You know, it really does come down to self awareness and saying, these are my non negotiables for me only for me. And you're going to find that you become very aware of people that work in your life, things that work in your life, conversations and what's acceptable. Robin Meyers:              12:57                Once you start doing that, you're able to kind of start peeling away and going after things that have held you back. You know, the other side of this conversation is that our brain, as brilliant as it is and everyone's brain is, is great at keeping us in the patterns that it's been given. So a lot of that is reprogramming and there's ways to actually get into your subconscious and reprogram. But it is reprogramming. So it's baby steps and sometimes it's two steps forward and three steps back. And it's being very gentle with yourself and not beating yourself up and saying, okay, tomorrow's another day, but it's just breaking into a new pattern. Karen Litzy:                                           And those patterns I agree in the brain can be so deeply set, deeply set from childhood into adolescence, into adulthood. Like you said, whenever a stage in life that you're in. Karen Litzy:                   14:01                And you know, again, I go back to this population of people with pain, which is a huge population across the world. It's a $1 billion industry and that's just back pain, forget about every other kind of pain. So I think being able to work with someone to maybe tap into some of these patterns that we have developed, I think can really help people perhaps make sense of some of their pain, help overcome some aspects of that pain. I can say anecdotally from myself, so an n of one that being able to do that for myself was really helpful, I felt was for me the next step that needed to happen. Robin Meyers:                                      I totally agree with you. It's sometimes like those patterns of talking yourself like, but if I get out of bed I might hurt. But if you don't get out of bed and you don't try, will you hurt? What is that risk? Karen Litzy:                   15:13                Looking at the risk reward there. Right, right. Robin Meyers:                                      I'll go back to a story if you don't mind. When I was 11, I think I was 11 I used to ride horses. I don't even know if I was good at it, but I used to ride horses. I had a really bad accident and I broke my back in three places. I ended up being fine. Actually it ended up being a blessing in disguise because I had a horrible scoliosis that they discovered. But I was in a back brace and possible surgeries and you know, initially it was like, is she going to walk? And things like that. It was a nine month recovery, but, and I was 11, so I think it, as much as it affected me, my parents really obviously dealt with it. Robin Meyers:              16:01                Fast forward to my daughter being 10 years old and we lived in the countryside of outside of DC in Virginia where horses are Galore. She wanted to ride horses. I actually didn't think twice about it. It was a local farm. It was around the corner. I would take her, I would watch got her all the safety equipment. My father happened to call me, my mom had already died and my father had called me and didn't call me often. And instead of like, hi, how are you today? He just ripped into me. He just, you know, his, the first thing out of his mouth was, I'm so disappointed. Are you stupid? And I was like, oh well those are triggers to my childhood. Hello father. But when I sat, now when I process it, I understand in a way where he was coming from and I said, she's fine. Robin Meyers:              16:53                I had an accident and I understand your thoughts. So for me, I honestly had to make a conscious decision to say, I could have easily said, you're not going to ride because I had this accident and I'm afraid for you versus processing. Listen, it was an accident. Logically it was an accident. I'm going to be there. We have all the possible safety stuff. Is there a possibility of an accident? Yes. Is there the probability? I don't know, but why am I going to not let you try something because of what happened to me. So that's an easy imprint to get rid of. Right. But it's just an example of making a real conscious choice to say, I'm going to cut that cord right there and not let that pass on. Because if I let it pass on, then she at some stage in her life would either say, I've always wanted to do this and I'm going to try it, or I'm never going to try it, but I wanted to do this. Karen Litzy:                   17:57                Yeah. And you are able to kind of change that imprint. You cut that fear, but your father couldn't. Robin Meyers:                                      No, he couldn't. He was furious. Oh, he was so mad. And that's coming probably for him of a place of fear. Karen Litzy:                                           Right. I'm sure when that accident happened to you, your parents must have been beyond scared. Robin Meyers:                                      I'm sure. I'm sure. And for them, you know, they obviously had to drive to every doctor's appointment and all of that and every ounce of pain I felt probably was as bad, if not worse for them. Right. As a parent. So. Sure. So I get it. Karen Litzy:                                           Yeah. Yeah, I get that as well. And I think that's a really great example for the listeners of how you can start to change these imprints or tattoos that have taken hold in your brain to allow you to move forward in the PT World. Karen Litzy:                   18:55                And this is probably in more worlds than PT, but we call that graded exposure to activity. So for instance, for me, I'll give an example. I felt I couldn't carry anything because it would hurt my neck. So I carried nothing around New York City, a place where you have to walk everywhere and groceries and things. I was like, I can't carry anything. So I always get everything delivered until, until the one day. I spoke with a physical therapist from Australia, David Butler, and he said, well, why don't you just go to the grocery store and put like, I don't know, a loaf of bread and a bag of snacks in it would be so light and just carry it home and see what happens. Right. And so that's what I did and I got home. I was like, okay, that felt pretty good. Karen Litzy:                   19:49                And then each time I went I would add one or two more things to the bag. So gradually exposing myself to the activity that I was fearful of doing. Until now I can carry, I'm like a pack mule, you know, running around New York City. But if he had not encouraged me and helped me to see that I was doing a disservice to myself through fear, I don't know where I would be today. And I'm assuming that's what the kind of work that you do with your clients is helping them to see the fears that are holding them back. Robin Meyers:                                      Right, absolutely. So I try and work with everyone to see, to acknowledge what it is. And you have to acknowledge it, right? I mean it's something, but once you peel back that layer of it, is it logical or illogical? Robin Meyers:              20:46                Did something happen or did something not happen? And then what is the origin of it? And, with the groceries, how do you start working through it? Because when you become more present and you start learning about you and like using you as an example, right? You learned that you are stronger than you thought, it didn't hurt and now instead of holding yourself back. So you did move through it and you actively were aware of your surroundings and how you felt. There's actually a genetic disorder called Urbach-Wiethe disease, and it's a mutation where people cannot feel fear. It's very rare. It's like 400 people in the world or something and its parts. It's not just in the Amygdala, it's parts of certain regions of that combination of the brain. I don't know the other regions, but like that harden and kind of waste away. Robin Meyers:              21:50                But now that wouldn't work to your advantage. Right. I mean you want to have that element of awareness and I think that's what fear needs to be looked at like a positive awareness of listening to yourself. Karen Litzy:                                           Yeah. And I think oftentimes when you're coming from a place of fear, you're in it so to speak, it's really hard to acknowledge that because do people feel like acknowledging that is acknowledging a weakness that they might have? Robin Meyers:                                      Exactly. And that's where the conversation needs to shift. Because I think when people realize that the science of fear exists, like the diagnosis is, it's not if you have it or not. Everybody has fear. Right. So if we want to talk like, you know, as practitioners, the diagnosis is you have it.  The prescription is you have a choice on how you react to it. Karen Litzy:                                           Yeah, for sure. You definitely have it. We all have fear and how that fear manifests itself. Now in the beginning you said it could be good or bad. So how could fear be good? Cause I think we always associate with fear being bad. Robin Meyers:                                      Right? And that's what has to change. That's the conversation that needs to shift because I think there's an element of fear that's good. I really do. I think it needs to work to your advantage. You know, I honestly think that it makes you stop and think. Robin Meyers:              23:29                Now again, there's different levels of people's fears, right? So I don't think in an half hour or an hour we're going to be able to like solve the world's problems. It's good because it makes you actively move through the action of fear. So if you can take that imprint in that tattoo and look at it and say, answer the question, what is it? Identify what is it? Why am I afraid of this? Why? Why is this going to hold me back logically? Why is this going to hold me back. Karen Litzy:                                           Logically? See but that's the hard part. When you have fear, it's hard to get that logic, right? Robin Meyers:                                      And that's the whole part though of almost, you have to reverse the brain, your brain function and trick your own brain because your brain is going to keep you set in that fear based negative side. But we need to do is switch that whole paradigm to the positive side. Robin Meyers:              24:36                So I was at a course for a workshop that I did and I was one of the facilitators and the last part was this trapeze for some reason I don't like heights, I've never fallen, but just not my thing. Like I'm not going to jump out of an airplane anytime that like it's not enjoyable for me. I don't ever see doing that. But this trapeze, and this was like a pretty rustic course by the way, climb up this 40 foot tree that had the little pegs in it. Yeah, turn around on a very small perch and jump, you know, like four feet out to catch the trapeze bar. I sat there for a while looking at it as most of the people were going and I'm like, I think I'm good for the day. And then I'm like, you really got to go do it. Like why not now? You're totally harnessed in right. So logically I'm harnessed. There's no reason why I shouldn't, my body on the other hand is like, I'm shaking like a leaf. I know I can't get hurt. Robin Meyers:              25:42                Just do it. Like you have to trust yourself to just go do it. I ended up climbing up this tree. Of course when you get up to the top of the perch, I was turned around and hugging the tree. Yeah, I could see that. Yeah. Yeah. And like the guy below is like, okay, turn around. And I was like, yeah, give me a second. I'll be there in a moment and you know, go to the edge. Then they're like, just jump. And I was like, Eh, okay. You know, and you'd have to pause. But again, it's that logic and your brain playing games with you. But again, I'm standing in a harness where I know I'm not going to do a face plant onto the ground. So I took a deep breath, right. And eventually walk to the edge and put my arms in front. Robin Meyers:              26:31                I actually caught the trapeze. Thank God that would have been embarrassing. But I trusted myself, you know, again, will I ever jump out of a plane. No. Cause that's not enjoyable to me. Karen Litzy:                                           Like there are limits to where you can push yourself. And if it's not like Marie Kondo says, if it's not going to bring you joy, then you don’t have to do it right. Robin Meyers:                                      But, I did it and it was a point, it was more proving to my own self that I could take that leap of trust. So that's where I think it's really getting in tune and in touch with yourself that you can understand fear working for you and not against you and really using it to move you forward in life. You know, I remember when I first started coaching, one of my first instructors said, when you're excited about something and you're fearful of something, like that's a great combination. And I've always really, it's always proven true to me and I've always believed it. Because it's kind of like not proceed with caution. It's just be aware. It's just that self awareness, you know, listen to yourself, trust yourself. But go for it. Karen Litzy:                                           And I think that's great advice. Listen, trust and go for it. Yeah. I mean, why not? Because what's the worst that can happen? You fail. Karen Litzy:                   28:07                And that's okay too. Right? Okay. I failed plenty of times. Oh my goodness. If you never failed in life, what have you been doing with yourself? Right. So I totally get that. And now, so you went from, like I said, molecular geneticist to fear strategist, coach. How did you make that transition? I think this is a great question because there are a lot of people who work in healthcare, very science based who are like, hmm, maybe I'm ready to make that leap, but I just have no idea what to do. Robin Meyers:                                      It's a great question. So my transition took many years and let me cut it short for everybody else in the world. So obviously I was younger and did my molecular genetics training and jobs, and then I took a stint of time to raise a family and then I went back into the workforce smaller jobs. Robin Meyers:              29:18                I always taught. I ended up finding, I taught biology and stuff like that. So I kept my science going. I'm not into research in my later years, but I kept it going and then realized that I never really gave myself permission to be me and to use my voice and my strengths. And so that's when I started to kind of look towards the coaching program. And especially working with professionals and women professionals. I think overall, but all professionals allowing themselves to think outside the box. And in saying that, you know, and this comes down to the whole fear thing, we're always told that you know, you're either left sided, your brains left side or right side, right, were dominant in one side or the other. So I really don't believe that. I feel like when you give yourself permission to really learn who you are, there's a great synergy that can happen and you can combine both sides of your brain and that's when you really start listening to yourself. Robin Meyers:              30:29                So, even if you're in a science based world or something, you know, for me, my greatest strength right now is really connecting the dots back into the molecular genetics of fear and being able to bring a whole different angle and discussion and awareness, that I would not be able to. And I don't think many people can have the discussion that I'm having with it cause they just don't have that. So I think it's great to be able to combine your sciences and whatever creative side that you want to. Karen Litzy:                                           Yeah. So don't throw away the science part, use it, use it to your advantage, use everything you've learned to help others. Robin Meyers:                                      Absolutely. There are ways to connect the dots. And I mean, like you and I, you were saying, you know what, we've known each other a couple years and it wasn't until recently that I either admitted it or if you guys found out that I was a gene finder. Karen Litzy:                                           Now knowing that it makes so much more sense for what you do now. Karen Litzy:                   31:47                Now I'm like, oh, now I, yes, this makes perfect sense. It just comes back full circle as to that. I think the natural progression for you in your career and you know what was next for you. To me it all makes sense. Robin Meyers:                                      Yeah, it makes sense to me now too. It really is coming full circle. And I was actually just having a conversation. Someone's like, you know, you're kind of been in this business for several years now. And I'm like, actually I feel like I'm new. I almost feel like I've started over again just because I finally allowed myself to Mesh the worlds together. And that's what I would say is, you know, you don't have to stay science in the left brain and whatever the creative is the other side, you can mesh it and at whatever stage of life you're at, you know, if there's something that really excites you in that other world, find the time. Robin Meyers:              32:44                And even if it's once a month or once a week, you know, find something in that other element that you want to explore it. Karen Litzy:                                           Yeah, absolutely. Great Advice. And, now that takes me to the last question that I ask everyone, but I feel like you might've just answered it, but I'm going to ask it anyway. Knowing where you are now in your life and in your career, what advice would you give yourself as a new Grad, as the molecular geneticist fresh out of college and Grad School? Robin Meyers:                                      Well I was very much an introvert, so maybe be a little more outspoken. But to allow things to happen and not think that it had to be one way only. I walked that line, like if it wasn't going to be something, just molecular genetics, then I had to leave the field. Robin Meyers:              33:43                You know what I mean? And I think if I knew what I know now, although again, it all works full circle, I would have realized like you can think outside the box and I think that's what makes us all unique and you know, whatever your background is, you're bringing a very special element to the conversation. So think outside the box. And that's where I would have said to myself, you know, don't stop being creative just because you're taking one path. Karen Litzy:                                           And, I think that's great advice for anyone, but especially for women in the stem profession. I think that's really great advice. And now where can people find more about you? And if they have any questions where are you? Robin Meyers:                                      The best way to find me is just to go to my website, which is www.robinjoymeyers.com. And from there you can get on my calendar. Robin Meyers:              34:43                I'm always happy to set up a discovery call with anybody if you want to have just a chat for 40 minutes and you have questions, things about what I'm doing and where I'm traveling and busy speaking with the fearless women's summit right now, all over the US.  And I'm taking a group only of 10 women to Italy in October for a retreat of giving yourself permission to be you. So yeah, just go to my website because that's the easiest way to find me. Karen Litzy:                                           Awesome. Well, that sounds pretty amazing and thank you so much for coming on and sharing all of this information on fear with myself and with the listeners, and I can tell you, I said I'm totally using that tattoo thing. I think that's brilliant. So thanks for that. I'll give you credit for sure. I will credit you for that. Thank you so much for coming on. I appreciate it.

So today if you have an old computer running software that you like and you want that same kind of software running on a new computer one approaches to stare at the software or try to guess how it works and then write software on the new computer that works how you think it works on the old computer. But another approach is to write an emulator on the new computer that just makes the new computer look like the old computer to this offer if you can write an emulator you can just move this offer over and it works. You don't have to understand it you don't have to rewrite it. Big savings that offer as complicated and messy. So the idea is to do that for the human brain to make an emulator for the software in the human brain. AI automation robotics it seems as if every startup and large business today is looking at AI  and the implications of automating both jobs and tasks to lead to greater efficiency and output.

How do you make a baby? You just add male and female bits together, and nine months later out pops a cute little tike right? Sure, that's accurate at its core, but what if you want to make a healthy baby? A healthy baby is a whole other story altogether. There are so many things to consider,  such as the two-year detox process the mother (and even father) need to embark on before conception, including the cessation of birth control pills. Then there's the period of gestation, when the mother needs to protect and nourish her body, to increase the likelihood of complication-free birth. Once the first nine months have passed, and the time of actual delivery arrives, there are endless, and profoundly impactful considerations regarding where and how to deliver the baby. The most meaningful decision is of course whether or not to have a home or hospital birth- a natural, or medicalized experience. Both have their risks and benefits. 
 Then once the little one arrives into this world, parents are faced with a multitude of other choices around breastfeeding, vaccination, circumcision (male genital mutilation) and what to feed the kid once they've been weened. The whole ordeal is incredibly complicated and wrought with potential confusion and misinformation. 
 Thanks to our guest Dr. Robin Berzin, you will learn the ins and outs (no pun intended) of the whole reproductive process directly from a new mom, who's done all of the research herself from start to finish, applying the most cutting-edge knowledge available to date to her own birthing experience.  
 Dr. Berzin not only been through it herself but has spent much of her adult life in pursuit of the most effective model of medical care, from the perspective of functional and western medicine.  From this episode, you will gain laser-focus clarity on the different options available to you and your family, and how to navigate some the most meaningful and vital decisions of your life. Decisions that will directly affect your offspring, and quite possibly the generations that will follow.
 Do the world a favor and please share this profound episode with someone you know who’s likely to procreate at some point. The power of information like this cannot be over estimated. 
 Here’s to making love. And happy, healthy babies. 
 Luke   Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: Possible dangers and complications of a tradition hospital birth, and those of home birth What exactly does a home birth entail, and is it risky? What is a midwife, and what is their role in a home birth How do you find and work with a qualified Doula? And why Robin chose to use one for her home birthing process How the environment in the room affects the baby as it pops out: the lighting, the sounds, the smells, the people present, the energy… How she actually had to abandon home birth in the middle of labor, and rushed off in an Uber to the hospital What to do if the natural approach isn’t working, and having to go with interventions like an epidural, or C-section The importance of making sure that you and your doctor are on the same page by covering important topics early on The expense of a hybrid style birth such as the one Robin did Are ultrasounds dangerous? The systematic problem with medicalized birth and pregnancy, and how the medical system is milking people for money unnecessarily Why it’s crucial to get the inside of your body clean as possible before even getting pregnant How Robin tested really high in mercury before getting pregnant, and did a heavy metal detox before having the pregnancy The risks of birth control pills, and why you should be off it for at least two years before having a baby What's the deal with banking eggs, and why you might want to do this right now The role of stem cell therapy in relation to birth The concerns with mammograms The main causes of breast cancer, and how to avoid it What are the benefits of eating the placenta? What is delayed umbilical cord clamping, and why you should do it The issues with the male genital mutilation practice we call circumcision, and why you should’t do it to baby boys Why vaginal swabbing is absolutely needed if you have a C-section  To vaccinate or not to vaccinate?

Robin Hanson is an associate professor of economics at George Mason University and a research associate at the Future of Humanity Institute of Oxford University. He has a PhD in social science from Caltech, Master's in physics and philosophy from the University of Chicago and worked for nine years in artificial intelligence as a research programmer at Lockheed and NASA. He helped pioneer the field of prediction markets, and published The Age of Em: Work, Love and Life when Robots Rule the Earth, which was the topic of our discussion in a previous podcast episode back in 2016.  His most recent book is entitled, The Elephant in the Brain: Hidden Motives in Everyday Life. He also blogs at OvercomingBias.com.   The big mistake we are making – the ‘elephant in the brain’. the elephant in the room, n. An important issue that people are re­luc­tant to ack­now­ledge or add­ress; a social taboo. the elephant in the brain, n. An important but un­ack­now­ledged fea­ture of how our minds work; an introspective taboo. The elephant in the brain is the reason that people don’t do things they want to do. They have a lot of hidden motives. People think they do certain things for one reason but really do these things for a different reason.  Some of the motives are unconscious. This may be due to many reasons but one of them is the desire/need to conform to social norms. The book, The Elephant in the Brain includes 10 areas of hidden motives in everyday life. These include: Body language Laughter Conversation Consumption Art Charity Education – one reason people really go to school is to ‘show off’ Medicine – it isn’t just about health – it’s also about demonstrating caring Religion Politics The puzzle of social status in the workplace is one to be explored. People are always working to improve their position within an organization but often the competition is ‘hidden’ by socially expected terms like ‘experience’ or ‘seniority’. To discuss one’s social status in the workplace is not acceptable. So, to continue to explore and think about people’s true motives can be beneficial.   What you will learn in this episode: Why people have hidden motives. Are people just selfish? Why do companies have sexual harassment workshops? What could be alternative reasons to hold workplace meetings? How Robin and co-author Kevin Simler researched for the book Do we have the power to change our self-deceptive ways?

If you enjoyed learning about the Hand In Hand approach to connecting with your children and you would like to know more, you will really gain a lot from today's show, with Robin Setchko as guest. Robin was the leader of the Hand In Hand Intensive Group, which was featured in episode 23 of this show (Parenting Through Connection www.soloparentlife.com/23). Listen in today, as she talks to Robbin about her work with Hand In Hand and how it's helped her, both as a professional and as a  parent.   Robin, who lives in Northern California, is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and she's also the parent of two young adults, a twenty-five year old daughter and a twenty-two year old son. She works a lot with parents and also with individuals. More and more of her work has moved towards working with parents, as she's found that raising children and wanting the best for them has shown to be a really effective way to bring things up in parents, that need to be worked on. Listen in today and find out more about how you can move closer to your children, as you move things out of the way.   Today, Robin and Robbin discuss:   That Robbin finds the Hand In Hand way of helping people learn how to coach others through first doing it themselves in their own lives, to be really powerful. How long Robin has been a Hand In Hand instructor and how she first got involved with it. That there is the sense with parents that they need to do something, yet it's not that, it's about really listening. That often, just your presence with your children is enough. Robin explains what is meant by processing emotions. How people recover through the proper processing of emotions. How children grow, neurologically through this process and how this forms the foundation for good relationships later on in life. The unique and transformative effect of the deep and warm support that Robin received from other parents with Hand In Hand and how it impacted on so many other areas in her life. What the Stay Listening concept looks like. How being heard helps you to think better. That all parents really do tend to relate to each other in a profound way. How Robin has seen this process work with the families that she works with. The parallel process that parents go through while raising their children. The relief of just 'saying it as it is' and not having to put a good spin on things. The passionate journey of loving your children. What Robin says to parents who think that this approach will indulge their children's inappropriate behavior. The more often that your children can recover, in your presence, the less likely they will be to behave inappropriately. How children learn, through this process, that they can trust that you will help them. The role of faith in this process. That, through this process, children eventually come to know that they're heading for a meltdown and will then look to 'offload' to you, or to someone safe.   Links: Robin's email: rsetchko@sonic.net Robbin's email: soloparentlife@gmail.com  - To join Robbin's upcoming Parent Group, put 'Parent Group' in the subject line and email her.

Have you ever noticed that most of the time when you present an illness or physical issue to a traditional medical doctor that their first go-to solution to your problem includes either drugs, surgery, or both? Have you ever had a doctor look into the underlying root causes of your ailment in a meaningful way? Chances are better than even that during a typical appointment with your family doc they take about 10-15 minutes to ask what your symptoms are, then prescribe a pharmaceutical to alleviate the symptom, or refer you to a specialist that offers the same type of advice. Unfortunately, the solution offered by either rarely has much of an impact, and if it does, it tends to be short-lived because the cause of the symptom has not been identified and remedied. In this episode, we take a look at our current broken, and antiquated medical system, and discover a world of exciting new possibilities in the industry of Functional Medicine. Be prepared to learn the insider secrets of the healthcare industry, as told by a highly educated and celebrated MD, and how to take control of your own health by forming a collaborative relationship with your doctor. In the new era of medicine, you need a doctor that understands how to prevent and treat illness and disease through lifestyle and dietary changes and sees pharmaceutical and surgical solutions as a last resort, rather than the first line of defense. Our guest Dr. Robin Berzin is one of the world's top functional medicine (or holistic) doctors. She's also a savvy entrepreneur in the health and wellness industry and has created a new medical care model that is quickly setting the new standard for functional medicine through her groundbreaking company Parsley Health. In addition to getting an insider's perspective on taking charge of your healthcare, you'll also gain an immense amount of practical insights and solutions to many common ailments and health issues that many of us are currently facing. If you know someone who is stuck or frustrated with their current healthcare provider or has a chronic problem that they've been unable solve, do them a favor and share this episode with them now. Episode Breakdown Parsley Health’s mission and revolutionary business model The high cost of non-conventional health care, insurance coverage hurdles, and what Parsley Health is doing to bridge the gap How Robin’s medical & business background tie the knots to create a successful business Functional medicine vs. primary care physician: the inherent differences Home birth, midwives, birthing centers, hospital birth… what’s the best approach?

This seems to be a particularly ideal time for a story about a single individual’s determination and capacity to transform tragedy into a movement that’s saving millions of lives world-wide! Robin Smalley is an Emmy-winning journalist who miraculously found her life’s purpose at her best friend’s deathbed. At the lowest point in her life she decided to take a wild leap of faith, move her family to Africa and co-found a nonprofit that is tirelessly (and successfully!) eradicating pediatric AIDS globally. In the last 15 years mothers2mothers has transformed from a tiny startup to an award-winning organization that has saved and enriched 1.5 million lives of HIV-positive moms and babies who are now born healthy thanks to Robin’s extraordinary work! Robin’s story and spirit are beyond inspiring - I know you’ll get so much from this amazing interview! What you’ll learn: What Robin learned about adaptability by following her performer parents all over the world and attending 12 schools in 12 years How taking a dreaded science class in college opened a door to Robin's incredibly successful career in television Why it so pays off to truly get to know new people (you’ll enjoy stories we shared about how making a positive impact on others paid off in unexpected ways) What it was like for Robin to win an Emmy (the only time Oprah show ever lost!) How becoming a mom and volunteering at a non-profit on vacations shifted Robin's perspective and career path Why our reluctance to promote and advocate for ourselves holds us back as leaders Why it's ok to be "selfish" and help people just because it makes us feel good How Robin transformed the tragedy of her friend's death into a mission to change lives of millions of women and children world-wide How mothers2mothers transitioned from starting in a car to 900 sites in 8 countries within 3 years How you can join Robin's innovative, super fun campaign that empowers donors to feel great about celebrating birthdays and making a difference And so much more!

As role models in their townships and villages, Mentor Mothers fight stigma as valued members of health care teams that have traditionally been populated by overworked and overstressed doctors and nurses. As m2m’s first Executive Director and current Director of m2m U.S., Robin has helped guide the organization through a period of extraordinary growth, from a tiny grassroots start-up to an international organization operating in eight sub-Saharan countries and employing over 1600 HIV-positive women who are providing health and hope to hundreds of thousands of families. m2m has been honored at the White House, has won the Skoll Entrepreneurial Award, the Schwab Entrepreneurial Award, the Global Health Council Best Practices Award, and the Henry Kravis Leadership Award. Robin is married to architect Jeffrey Smalley and has two daughters, Hannah and Sophia.
